On Wednesday, April 23, 2025, cycling’s biggest stars return to the roads of Belgium as they battle for victory in the 89th edition of La Fleche Wallone. French for “The Walloon Arrow,” this mid-week event is the second of three Ardennes Classics. The first of three Ardennes Classics was the Amstel Gold Race on April 20. If you missed it, I highly recommend watching highlights on YouTube as it ended in a thrilling fashion. Mattias Skjelmose outsprinted Remco Evenepoel and Tadej Pogacar for the win.

After a week away from UFC action, I am personally ready for the fireworks to be back. UFC 314 was an embarrassment of riches for MMA fans and bettors alike, and by default UFC on ESPN 66 will pale in comparison. While it is a letdown if you measure it up to that murderer’s row of epic showdowns, it’s still a solid card in its own right, with a headliner between Ian Machado Garry and Carlos Prates taking center stage.
