Things have finally settled down in the world of sports. November was a big month that saw a number of world champions crowned. The Atlanta Braves are your World Series champions, Kyle Larson is your NASCAR Cup Series champion, and Hangman Adam Page is your All Elite Wrestling champion. While December doesn’t have nearly as many finals as that, there is still plenty of good sports action to sink your teeth into this month.
The NBA is in full swing and they have their annual Christmas games going on this year. Warriors vs. Suns, Lakers vs. Nets, and Celtics vs. Bucks all look like must watch games. The NCAA is also back in swing with some early season action, including the Jimmy V Classic.
We also have a full selection of fights this month. Jake Paul is back in the ring facing off against Tommy Fury. UFC 269 is on December 11th and looks to be a great card to end the year. It’ll be the end of an era in NXT with WarGames finishing out the year on the WWE schedule.
There is a lot of good stuff this month, but December is all about football. Four weeks of the NFL, the Conference championships in NCAA, and Bowl games. Lots and lots of bowl games.
