The company added that it wouldn't be offering a bout to Rivera at present."The allegations are extremely troubling and the organization is currently gathering additional information. The investigation is ongoing, and any potential next steps including disciplinary action or medical attention will be determined upon the conclusion," the UFC said in its statement."Furthermore, UFC has informed Rivera's management that he will not be offered a bout at this time."<ul class="read-more-links"><li>Read more:</li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/khabib-nurmagomedov-had-100-million-offer-to-fight-floyd-mayweather-2021-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Khabib Nurmagomedov had a $100 million offer to fight Floyd Mayweather and Dana White was 'on board,' says manager</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/conor-mcgregor-probably-skeptical-about-fighting-in-covid-white-said-2020-12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor was 'probably' skeptical about competing when the UFC said it would hold events through COVID, Dana White said</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/richardson-hitchins-is-proof-logan-vs-mayweather-creates-boxing-fans-2020-12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A red-hot boxing prospect says he's living proof that Floyd Mayweather vs. Logan Paul exhibitions can create new boxing fans</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/pfl-hopes-to-reimagine-combat-sports-with-new-season-2020-12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PFL MMA hopes to continue its mission of reimagining the world of combat sports when its new season begins in April 2021</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/shawn-porter-fancies-wbo-title-fight-with-terence-crawford-2020-12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Shawn Porter fancies a fight with Terence Crawford but says he has other welterweight world title options, too</a></li></ul>

"Yet, the similarities to the accounts of immigrant women and nurses in the Irwin County Detention Center today are eerily similar."The letter requests a response and congressional briefing from DHS Inspector General Joseph Cuffari on the status of that investigation by no later than Sept. 25.The correspondence comes after a congressional source, asked about the whistleblower's allegations, <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/house-investigating-ice-hysterectomies-complaint-2020-9">told Business Insider</a> that the House subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship, chaired by Democratic Rep. Zoe Lofgren, "was engaging in oversight over DHS to dig into this complaint."ICE, in a statement attributed to its medical director, Dr. Ada Rivera, said the accusations "will be fully investigated by an independent officer." However, it added, "ICE vehemently disputes the implication that detainees are used for experimental medical procedures."Have a news tip?

You ain't seen nothing like me - I promise you."Garcia also posted a version of the video on his Twitter page.Davis can be heard more clearly in Garcia's video, as he ridicules the youngster for suffering a recent knockdown in his statement win over Luke Campbell earlier this month.Laughing, Davis says: "Mike! He got dropped by somebody that can't even hit … if I would've hit him, you know I would've killed him after that."Davis also vowed to fight Garcia as his next bout.<h2>Davis vs. Garcia is one of the hottest fights boxing can offer</h2>Errol Spence Jr. and Terence Crawford, Anthony Joshua vs. Tyson Fury, and Davis against Garcia are three of the biggest bouts boxing can produce.Spence and Crawford do not appear close to fighting each other in the current climate, though, and while it would bring together two of the very best athletes in the sport, it may not transcend into the common <keyword id="6356028" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="sports">sports</keyword> fan's consciousness.Joshua and Fury will sell well in the UK, but may not get as much traction in the US as Davis and Garcia - two young American superstars who have extraordinary fanbases already.Davis is a cross-state ticket-seller and has fought in front of near-capacity crowds in Baltimore and Atlanta. "Tank" is a transcendent boxing star already, attracting celebrities like NBA great Shaquille O'Neal and the rapper T.I to ringside seats at his events.Likewise, Garcia has his own built-in fanbase thanks to an extraordinary social media following on Twitter, Tik Tok, Instagram, and YouTube.Garcia, a Gen-Z superstar backed by Golden Boy Promotions and Oscar de la Hoya, recently told Insider that he is desperate to fight Davis.

Regardless, he wants to speak to Tyson about it."I do wanna talk to Mike Tyson about how he felt, just his philosophy on why he did it, how he did it - because he looked phenomenal," said de la Hoya, <a href="https://www.boxingscene.com/de-la-hoya-plans-speak-with-mike-tyson-get-advice-on-ring-return--154623" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to Fight Hype</a>."He looked great. For a guy who's 54-years-old, he looked in amazing shape. Yes, his timing might've been off just a bit but he looked good."And so I was very happy for him and I would love to pick his brain on just the process, and how it took him to get to that mind frame, to the level."So we'll see after that conversation how I feel. But yeah, I'm in shape, I'm actually running every single day. I feel great. I'm at about 169 [pounds] right now, so I think I can get down to 154. So we'll see."<h2>A de la Hoya return to the ring against Golovkin would be ill-advised</h2><div type="image" title="Gennadiy Golovkin " height="750" width="1500" msid="80199950" hostid="261"></div>There is a noticeable difference in the type of event Tyson and Jones Jr. engaged in - a showcase involving two former fighters now in their 50s - and the one de la Hoya has been linked to.Rumors abound that de la Hoya would compete in a pro bout against Golovkin, who is an active fighter almost 10 years younger than him.Golovkin was a highly decorated amateur boxer, a feared puncher through much of his career, and has a pro boxing record of 41 wins (36 knockouts) against one loss and one draw.Since that sole loss to Saul "Canelo" Álvarez in 2018, Golovkin has rebounded with a hat-trick of wins against Steve Rolls, Sergiy Derevyanchenko, and Kamil Szeremeta.<a href="https://www.dazn.com/en-BN/news/boxing/oscar-de-la-hoya-warns-gennadiy-golovkin-he-would-be-tougher-than-ggg-last-opponent-kamil-szeremeta/1jqbf3kqc0qsq11vatxw5warb9" target="_blank" rel="noopener">According to the DAZN website</a>, the broadcaster that airs Golovkin's fights and also has a contract with de la Hoya's Golden Boy company, the Kazakh boxer said he'd "seize the opportunity [to] legally kill" de la Hoya if they ever fought for real.De la Hoya responded to Golovkin's comments on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdfYokj88yc&amp;feature=youtu.beu.be" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fight Hub TV</a>. "[The comments] weren't nice," he said, adding that he'd be a tougher challenge than Szeremeta, who Golovkin swatted aside in a seventh-round retirement last month."[Golovkin is] obviously still a dangerous fighter because he hits hard. I mean c'mon, I'm not a walk in the park like the guy he fought on the other day."I've always prided myself on fighting the best. That's never going to change. I can't go back on that."Read more:<a href="https://www.insider.com/jorge-masvidal-might-leave-twitter-after-donald-trump-was-banned-2021-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">UFC fighter Jorge Masvidal hints he may leave Twitter after it de-platformed 'the cool kids' like Donald Trump</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/khabib-nurmagomedov-had-100-million-offer-to-fight-floyd-mayweather-2021-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Khabib Nurmagomedov had a $100 million offer to fight Floyd Mayweather and Dana White was 'on board,' says manager</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/fans-can-attend-ufc-257-conor-mcgregor-comeback-fight-island-2021-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fans will attend Conor McGregor's comeback as the UFC allows spectators into its upcoming Fight Island festival</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/gervonta-davis-ryan-garcia-could-become-a-best-selling-bout-2021-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">2 rising stars are building extraordinary interest in a fight that could become one of boxing's biggest-selling bouts of the year</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/ufc-fighter-irwin-rivera-arrested-for-attempted-murder-2021-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A UFC fighter called Irwin Rivera has been arrested on 2 counts of attempted murder</a><a href="https://www.insider.com/conor-mcgregor-probably-skeptical-about-fighting-in-covid-white-said-2020-12" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Conor McGregor was 'probably' skeptical about competing when the UFC said it would hold events through COVID, Dana White said</a>
