2. SANZAAR TO INVESTIGATE SBW KNOCK

Conor McGregor is not the outright favourite as he prepares for the biggest fight of his life against Floyd Mayweather this weekend.

4. BOKS NOT BOTHERED WITH RED JERSEY

It's safe to say that everyone is NOT pleased with the Springboks red attire when they play against Argentina this weekend in their Rugby Championship Test in Salta.

The jersey had been commissioned to mark the 25th anniversary of rugby unity in South Africa.

The decision to play in red has been met with critical reaction from the South African rugby public including former national coach Jake White and former Bok lock Bakkies Botha.

However, Bok flank Jaco Kriel came out to defend the red jersey saying that it will be an honour to wear it in Salta.
