The most complete agenda for top sport events around the world. October 20-26, 2020.

GLOBAL SPORTS AGENDA

 Week Preview

Major League Baseball’s World Series will be plaid between the Los Ángeles Dodgers and Tampa Bay, after both won the League “Championship” Series in seven games. The first game is tonight (Tuesday).

In Horse Racing, Japan has its Kikuka Shō (Japanese St. Leger), just a week after Kohei Matsuyama (JAP) rode Daring Tact, to win the Shūka Shō, the sixth horse to ever win the Japanese Filly Triple Crown, and the first to ever do so unbeaten.

Khabib Nurmagomedov (RUS) wants to make a case as #1 MMA Pound for Pound fighter in the world by trying to defend his UFC Lightweight Championship against Justin Gaethje (USA).

In boxing, World Title fights featuring Mexicans are usually  spectacle and we will have three from México City this weekend, including the best Super Flyweight in the world, José “Gallito” Estrada (MEX), in a rematch against Carlos Cuadras (MEX) from their fight three years ago. Crowd-pleaser Julio César Martínez (MEX) will try to defend his Flyweight World Title versus last-minute replacement Moisés Calleros (MEX), since Maximino Flores (MEX) tested positive to Covid-19. Former P4P-rated Román González (NIC) might aim for a fight against the winner of Estrada and Cuadras if he is to beat Israel González (MEX).

IndyCar has its title decider and Josef Newgarden (USA, Penske) can still mathematically defend his Championship but it is way more likely that Scott Dixon (NZL) will get his sixth. Formula 1 returns to action in the inaugural race at spectacular Algarve and MotoGP races in Aragón again, after Álex Rins (ESP) became the 8th rider to win this season, which is led by consistent Joan Mir (ESP), who is yet to win.

In Road Cycling, the Giro d’Italia will be decided and the Vuelta a España just started this morning, with a stage win for Primož Roglič (SLO), who wants to redeem his Tour de France’s disappointing second place.
