Sports books 'crushed' by Ronda Rousey loss to Holly Holm
Ronda Rousey packed a punch — well, at least at the Las Vegas sports books.
Jay Kornegay, vice president of the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook, said Rousey’s stunning loss to Holly Holm on Saturday night exceeded the handle for an average NFL game and topped numbers for any previous Rousey fight. And Rousey wasn’t the only one who lost Saturday night.
“The results around town were not good,’’ Kornegay told USA TODAY Sports, referring to Las Vegas sports books. “Most books got crushed as typical underdog betting was popular.’’
Rachael Ray and Holyfield surprise Detroit youth boxers
Ray learned of the boxing gym through media reports and felt inspired to contribute to its mission. She arrived with over a dozen cameramen and show technicians, who said additional surprises for the gym and its young boxers will be revealed Monday.
Other celebrities including Eminem and Madonna have also given significant contributions to the program and its new 27,000-square-foot gym and headquarters that opened this year.
Detroit parent Lakisha Bond, whose two sons ages 9 and 12 are in the program, said she felt blessed for her boys to have such an opportunity. The organizers make sure that all the kids do their schoolwork, and will even give them work or reading if a student's teacher didn't assign any homework that night, she said.
"They're like another parent," Bond said.
Footage of the visit will be aired on the Rachael Ray Show's Thanksgiving special Nov. 25.
