Claressa Shields Steps Away from MMA to Focus Exclusively on Boxing

Posted on May 26, 2025 by A. J. Riot

Widely regarded as one of the most dominant figures in women’s boxing, Claressa has formally rang the bell on her stint in mixed martial arts after three appearances with the Professional Fighters League (PFL). The 30-year-old athlete confirmed her decision during an interview, stating that although the experience was worthwhile, she will no longer pursue MMA due to the pressure on her training schedule and the toll it has taken on her body.

Shields, who boasts an undefeated record in professional boxing and has held undisputed titles across five weight classes, entered MMA in 2021 with significant attention. Her debut resulted in a technical knockout victory over Brittney Elkin, followed by a narrow split-decision loss to Abigail Montes. After taking a break from the cage for over two years, she returned to win a tightly contested bout against Kelsey De Santis by decision in early 2024.

Card Sharks and Couch Potatoes: How the Online Casino Craze Is Winning Over Introverts

Posted on May 26, 2025 by A. J. Riot

Can a quiet night in turn you into a high-stakes card shark? Is your couch the new casino floor? For millions of people across the globe, the answer is a resounding yes.

Many of these people are introverted and tend to spend more time inside. Even when they’re outside, they avoid crowds, put on their headphones to deter social interactions, or just go to nature to isolate themselves.

If you’re a gambling enthusiast, but your need for solitude has kept you from playing, you’d probably enjoy the Quatro Casino online experience, where jackpots and joy are just a click away. In this article, the CasinoOnlineCA team explores how online casinos have become the ultimate playground for people like you who prefer their stakes high and their volume low.

How Microtransactions Became a Billion-Dollar Business Model

Posted on May 26, 2025 by A. J. Riot

Microtransactions are a prime example of the snowball effect in action. Every individual transaction is tiny, often only worth a few pence or pounds. On their own, they seem inconsequential. Yet many companies have built their wealth on the backs of small but cumulatively mighty microtransactions. Even small purchases accumulate over time, particularly when thousands or millions of people become regular customers. Moreover, the frequency of these microspends tends to increase as users continue engaging with the app, game, or platform – without them fully realizing how much they’ve actually spent.

Best MMA Fighters By Country (All-Time)

Posted on May 20, 2025 by Jason

Ever wonder who the top-rated fighters by country are? Wonder no more…

Below are the “best” fighters by nationality, using all-time rating points. For the purposes of this article, I combined the men and the women into one list. Though, the value of a “point” isn’t exactly the same between genders, I think it will be good enough for this.

Canada

#1 – Georges St. Pierre [26-2-0, 37917 pts]

If you expected to see Jones at the top spot, make sure you revisit GSP’s ledger. He faced a murderer’s row of Welterweight contenders, beat all of them, and avenged both of his losses in doing so.

Honorable Mention: Rory MacDonald (#105)
