NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
Another sports betting controversy has hit professional sports, this time in mixed martial arts.
The UFC has cut fighter Isaac Dulgarian on Monday, which comes two days after a first-round submission loss to Yadier del Valle at Fight Night in Las Vegas, according to multiple reports.
“Like many professional sports organizations, UFC works with an independent betting integrity service to monitor wagering activity on our events,” the promotion told The New York Post in a statement. “Our betting integrity partner, IC360, monitors wagering on every UFC event and is conducting a thorough review of the facts surrounding the Dulgarian vs. del Valle bout on Saturday, November 1. We take these allegations very seriously, and along with the health and safety of our fighters, nothing is more important than the integrity of our sport.”

Unusual betting activity was flagged for Bulgarian’s fight. Dulgarian, who is now 7-2 in his professional UFC career, was a -250 favorite, but the line moved drastically to -154 leading up to the fight.
Multiple sportsbooks flagged the unusual activity and stopped taking any bets on it before the first-round bell rang. Caesars Sportsbook even offered refunds to anyone who bet on Dulgarian.

“Mobile customers with losing bets on the Dulgarian UFC fight will receive a cash credit within 24 hours (singles), or within 24 hours of the last leg being determine (Parlay/SGP/Super Parlay) should that bet have won without that leg included,” Caesars Sportsbook posted on X.

DraftKings also told The Post it is “aware of potential concerns” about the fight.
“We are working with our integrity monitors and will provide updates to customers as they become available.
Dulgarian, 29, lost by submission, but commentators Daniel Cormier and Michael Chiesa were confused what was happening, as they called Del Valle’s finish “white belt stuff,” believing it wasn’t the most complicated stuff.
Making Dulgarian’s situation more interesting are his comments about his belief that fighters should get a cut for bets on bouts.

“I said, ‘Don’t bet on me unless you’re paying me some percentage.’ I’m doing all the work, that’s how I feel about it,” Dulgarian told MMA Junkie. “…If you’re betting on me, I want some of it.”

Florida judge rules prosecutors can access Tiger Woods’ prescription drug history after DUI arrest: report
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!
A Florida judge reportedly ruled that prosecutors will have access to Tiger Woods‘ recent prescription drug history.
An April court filing showed that a subpoena was to be issued for Woods’ prescription drug records following his DUI arrest in March, but his attorneys fought it. But according to the TC Palm, the records will be released to prosecutors only and not made available to the public.

Woods was arrested for driving under the influence after taking field sobriety tests following a two-vehicle crash in which his Range Rover turned onto its driver’s side.
The aforementioned court filing showed that a subpoena will be issued to “seek copies of any and all prescription medication on file” for Woods from Jan. 1 through March 27, the date of his car crash and arrest.
Woods’ attorney, Douglas Duncan, wrote in a motion that the subpoena goes against Woods’ constitutional rights to privacy, requesting Tuesday’s hearing to determine whether prosecutors should be allowed to obtain the records.
Woods told law enforcement that “I take a few” prescription medications amid seven back surgeries and “over 20 operations” on his leg. In 2021, he got into a wreck that resulted in serious leg injuries that kept him off the golf course for the entire year.

He also mentioned that his ankle was fused, and he walks with a limp due to the injuries. Due to the nature of his injuries, authorities made him do a field sobriety test while sitting down. He blew “triple-zeroes,” authorities said, but “lethargic” movements warranted exercises anyway.
Woods participated in four exercises before a deputy placed him in handcuffs. The deputy stated she believed Woods was under an “unknown substance.”
Deputies found two white pills on Woods, which were later identified as hydrocodone, an opioid used to treat pain.
Woods has pleaded not guilty to the DUI charge but announced several days after the wreck he would “seek treatment.” At the scene of the crash, he said he was “hoping to” play in the Masters, but his treatment put his eventual return to the course on hold.

Woods was granted permission on April 1 to travel out of the country “to enter into comprehensive inpatient treatment.”
Woods was charged with driving under the influence, property damage, refusal to submit to testing and careless driving. He pleaded not guilty and waived his arraignment, demanding a trial with a jury.
