Former lightweight ******* le challenger Raven Chapman suffered a "brain haematoma and cerebral oedema" during a July 24th sparring session, resulting in an emergency surgery and subsequent induced coma.
Per her management, she "has been taken off sedatives" and will be transferred from her current hospital in Denmark to the UK. A GoFundMe has been created to pay for the effort, which includes £20,000 from Queensberry Promotions.
Chapman (10-2, 3 KO) fell to Skye Nicolson in Riyadh on the 2024 Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol show, then came up short in a bid for the British ******* le against Karriss Artingstall a year later. "The Omen," 32, has been boxing professionally since 2021.
Between this and the ongoing struggles of Lee Reeves, who collapsed after a loss to Gary Cully, it's been a profoundly difficult week for UK boxing. Give if you can, keep them in your thoughts if you can't.

Longtime ESPN NFL Draft ****** yst Matt Miller has been at the center of a high-profile financial scandal following a life-threatening car crash that resulted in the amputation of his left arm. Now, he is stepping away from ESPN to focus on his health, but it doesn't sound like ESPN is going to remain silent on the scandal.
After a GoFundMe that was set up to help cover his medical costs, reports began to surface accusing Miller of missing payments for various endeavors, including his many fantasy football leagues. As Miller now steps away from ESPN, it sounds like ESPN is planning to address the scandal at a later time.
On June 23, Miller shared on social media that he had suffered significant injuries in a car crash, including a life-saving amputation of his left arm.
"As a result of the accident, I sustained significant injuries, including multiple fractures and broken ribs. I also underwent a life-saving amputation of my left arm. While I have a long road ahead, I'm focused on my recovery and taking things one day at a time."
Shortly after, however, a Reddit thread ****** led "Matt Miller Leagues and Scam" began to go viral, leading to Miller's own social media posts getting inundated with replies addressing accusations against him.

Former Tigers point guard Rod Hall is recovering after suffering a medical emergency during an alumni game at his high school, according to a GoFundMe shared by his family. Hall’s family said the 33-year-old has been diagnosed with a “serious neurological condition” and is asking for support as he continues his recovery.
Hall played for Clemson from 2011 to 2015 and became one of the steadier guards of the early Brad Brownell era. Hall brought toughness, defense, and physicality.
Hall had already played in 98 games and logged 2,636 minutes by Junior year. He led Clemson’s active players at the time with 642 career points and 287 **** ists, while starting all 36 games during the 2013-14 season.
Hall averaged a career-high 9.7 points per game that year, led Clemson with 143 **** ists and reached double figures 21 times after doing so only four times over his first two seasons. He also helped Clemson lead the ACC in free-throw percentage for the first time in program history.
He had ice in his veins in the big moments as he scored 20 points in a win over NC State, had 18 against SMU in the NIT semifinals, and put up 16 points in a double-overtime win over Maryland, including 10 in the two overtime periods.

The NFL offseason has brought significant roster turnover as teams continue to add fresh talent. As a result, several players around the league are facing uncertain futures. One New York Giants wide receiver, however, appears to be on his way out once final roster cuts arrive.
According to The Athletic, former third-round pick Jalin Hyatt is expected to be released this summer. The Giants' additions of several proven veteran receivers appear to have pushed Hyatt down the depth chart and toward the exit.

"Remember the buzz about Hyatt bulking up a year ago? It's a good reminder not to get carried away with offseason hype after Hyatt had just five catches for 35 yards last season, despite the Giants being desperate for wide receiver help. Championed as a draft steal after the Giants traded up for Hyatt in the third round in 2023, the pre-draft concerns about his limited skill set have proven accurate. The influx of veteran receivers this offseason has likely ended Hyatt's time in New York." Dan Duggan reported.

Broadway veteran Aaron Lazar has received a flurry of support following the news that his ALS diagnosis has left him without the use of his limbs.
Lazar, 50, was diagnosed with slow-moving ALS in 2022. The progressive neurodegenerative disease affects nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord. There is currently no cure.
The actor, whose credits include the Broadway productions of The Phantom of the Opera, The Light in the Piazza, Oklahoma, Les Misérables and the original cast of Sting's musical The Last Ship, released his debut solo album in 2024, which received a Grammy nomination. He is also the host of the Impossible Dreams Podcast, which he started following his ALS diagnosis.
As Lazar's condition has progressed, his family started a GoFundMe last week, aiming to raise $500,000 — and revealing the mounting cost of the actor's care.
"Aaron has lost the use of his legs, arms, and hands. He requires a BIPAP machine to breathe and a full-time caregiver at his side to help him throughout the day and night," the fundraiser said.

The voice behind one of Disney's most beloved characters died at 35 after a hidden battle. Authorities confirmed Daveigh Chase's cause of death, shedding light on her struggles after leaving Hollywood.
The Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner revealed Daveigh Chase's official cause of death as Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS).
The former child actress, legally named Daveigh Schwallier, died on June 16 at the age of 35. The medical examiner's report also notes "chronic polysubstance use" as a significant contributing condition. Authorities classified her death as natural, with Dr. Martina Kennedy overseeing the case.
Chase rose to prominence as the voice of Lilo in Disney's animated hit Lilo & Stitch. She also delivered a memorable performance as Samara in the 2002 horror classic The Ring. Her other credits included Donnie Darko, Big Love, Sabrina the Teenage Witch, ER, and Beethoven's 5th. Her last recorded role came in 2016 for the video game Let It Die.
Her boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, earlier informed TMZ that meningitis and a blood infection caused septic complications. "Behind the scenes, she's faced more than her share of hardship," he shared in a GoFundMe post. He further wrote, "After a difficult childhood and a painful falling out with her family, Daveigh was bullied and struggled to find safety and happiness in downtown LA."

MEXICO CITY, MEXICO - JUNE 11: Raul Jimenez #9 of Mexico celebrates with teammates after scoring the team's second goal during the FIFA World Cup 2026 Group A match between Mexico and South Africa at Mexico City Stadium on June 11, 2026 in Mexico City, Mexico. (Photo by Carl Recine/Getty Images)
The 2026 FIFA World Cup has now fully settled into its rhythm — and the stories transcending the pitch have only gotten bigger. Last week, we covered Lamine Yamal's sujood, Iran's impossible commute, and the accidental romance between Lawrence, Kansas and Algeria. Week two delivered something even harder to manufacture: a goalkeeper's mother clearing customs in time for a miracle reunion, a team that turned a Houston airport into a fashion week runway, an NFL quarterback becoming America's most beloved cultural ambassador, a Viking cheer that went from Norway to the New York City subway, and a group of kilt-wearing Scots who made Boston fall so hard the city signed a twinning agreement with Glasgow. Here are the five pop culture moments that defined the World Cup's second week.
When Cape Verde goalkeeper Vozinha broke down in tears after his historic 0-0 draw against Spain last week, he told the world two things: that his grandparents, who raised him, had passed before they could see this moment — and that his mother couldn't afford the bond required to secure a U.S. visa in time to watch him play. The internet responded the way the internet occasionally does when it's at its best.
Within 24 hours, GoFundMe campaigns had surpassed their targets. House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries contacted Secretary of State Marco Rubio directly, asking the State Department to do everything in their power to ensure Vozinha’s mother could attend Cape Verde’s next match. Vozinha's mother, Ana Candida Evora, received U.S. visa approval with the intervention of the State Department, began her journey from Cape Verde's capital city of Praia on June 17, and made it to Miami Stadium to watch her son play against Uruguay on June 21.
The broader context matters here. Cape Verde was among 50 countries whose citizens faced bonds of up to $15,000 to secure a U.S. visa, part of broader travel restrictions — a requirement the Trump administration suspended for World Cup ticket holders, though critics noted it came too late for many families. The Vozinha story became a live stress test of that policy, and it ended — for one family, in one stadium — with a reunion on the world’s biggest stage.

Actor Daveigh Chase died on Tuesday. She was 35.
Chase was best known for voicing Lilo Pelekai in the Disney animated film Lilo & Stitch in 2002, and for her terrifying turn as Samara Morgan, the creepy little girl in the horror movie The Ring that same year.
A man claiming to be Chase's boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, told TMZ that the former child star had died from meningitis and an infection in her blood, after being hospitalised in Los Angeles for malnutrition earlier this month.
Just prior to the actor's death, Hernandez set up a GoFundMe in her name, but Chase's longtime manager, John Ryan, repudiated his claims.
"Apparently, a man claiming to be her 'boyfriend' that none of us friends or her family has heard of has set up a GoFundMe. I can confirm Daveigh has a trust account set up at SAG to cover all costs," Ryan told The New York Post.
Chase won an Annie Award for outstanding voice acting in an animated feature production for her turn as Lilo, and went on to lend her voice to several spinoffs, including Stitch! The Movie in 2003, Disney Channel's Lilo & Stitch: The Series also in 2003, and Leroy & Stitch in 2006.

A former child star known for her work in films such as The Ring and Lilo & Stitch has died. Daveigh Chase was 35.
According to TMZ, Chase died on June 16. The media outlet received confirmation on Chase's devastating death from her boyfriend, Roy Hernandez.
Hernandez told TMZ that Chase died after having an infection in her blood and meningitis, which led to septic issues. In addition, TMZ noted, their sources indicated that Chase had been hospitalized in early June due to malnutrition.
A GoFundMe campaign appears to have been launched by Hernandez shortly before Chase's death. Hernandez wrote, "When we met, I promised to protect her and give her the love and comfort she deserved. Together, we found moments of happiness and hope."
Sadly, he added, her condition had become critical and "the doctors have told me she may not have much time left."

Daveigh Chase, the actress who played Samara Morgan in The Ring, has died. She was 35.
Chase, who voiced Lilo in Lilo & Stitch, reportedly died after she contracted meningitis and "several serious blood infections," her boyfriend Roy Hernandez told TMZ, who first reported the news. Her recent health issues resulted in sepsis, he said, which caused her body to shut down.

She was 35.
Her death was announced to TMZ by her boyfriend Roy Hernandez, who had just this week set up a GoFundMe page for the ailing Chase.

Why the GoFundMe for Eric Dane’s daughters has fans deeply divided over money an...

When I saw that a GoFundMe had been launched to support Eric Dane’s daughters after news of his death, my first though was if this was following the recent direction from James Van Der Beek’s fundraiser. But then I noticed one distinction, Eric’s wife did not set this up, his friends did. They set it up for his daughters. Yet the confusion on if it was necessary or not still lingered with me.
Not because his daughters don’t deserve compassion or that people are donating. But because the intersection of grie
