Conor McGregor Calls Out Jake Paul After Another Knock-Out Win

Jul 21 2024

UFC legend Conor McGregor has called out the Problem Child Jake Paul, after winning his fight against Bare Kunkle Champion Mike Perry by TKO in the 6th round.

McGregor and Paul have had disagreements and public spats for quite a few years now, but last night’s Twitter outburst from McGregor seems to have taken their rivalry to a whole new level.

McGregor accused Paul of avoiding fights in combat sports Mecca, Las Vegas, due to their real and trustworthy drug testing, implying that Paul takes performance enhancing drugs.

The ‘Notorius’ also blamed Perry’s loss, on the massive weight difference between him and Jake Paul and also criticized his decision to call out Mike Tyson, “a 60 year-old fresh off an in flight medical emergency.”

In the post fight conference, Paul had this to say about Conor’s Twitter callout, “So, Conor’s on Twitter all the time. He’s on his yacht all the time. Guess where he’s not? In the ring, fighting me.

“So, he can talk all the f**k he wants, but The Notorious MMA is scared of Jake Joseph Paul from Disney channel. And I put that on my mama.”

When to Avoid Walking Your Dog

Jul 21 2024

Walking your dog is essential for their health and happiness, but it’s crucial to know when it’s too hot to take them out. Dogs are prone to heatstroke, especially during warm weather. Here’s what you need to know to keep your furry friend safe during hotter days.

Temperature Thresholds: Exercise-related heatstroke can occur at any time, with the risk increasing significantly as temperatures rise. If the air temperature is below 19°C, the risk is generally low. Between 20-23°C, stick to low-intensity activities. Avoid walks altogether if it’s above 23°C to prevent overheating.

Surface Check: Hot surfaces can burn your dog’s paws. Pavements, sand, and concrete can reach temperatures much higher than the air. Test the ground by holding your palm on it for 10 seconds; if it’s too hot for you, it’s too hot for your dog. This simple check can prevent painful paw blisters.

Optimal Walk Times: Walk your dog during the early mornings or late evenings in the summer when it’s cooler. Be mindful of evening humidity, which can impede cooling. Choose shaded areas or locations with water access to keep your dog comfortable and hydrated.

Dog’s Self-Regulation: Dogs often don’t self-regulate well and may continue to play despite overheating. Monitor their activity closely to prevent exhaustion and heatstroke. Prioritize slow and steady exercise or skip the walk if conditions seem too warm.

Understanding Heatstroke: Heatstroke in dogs, often exercise-induced, occurs when they overheat and can’t cool down effectively. Signs include excessive panting and lethargy. Recognizing and preventing heatstroke is crucial as it can be fatal, with over 10% of cases resulting in death. Always assess your dog’s specific risk factors and climatic conditions before deciding on outdoor activities.
