Justice Department against Las Vegas casino mogul Steve Wynn last month to compel Wynn to register as a foreign agent because of lobbying work it says he performed at the behest of the Chinese government.

In Queensland, Star owns and operates the Treasury Brisbane and The Star Gold Coast casinos, and is building a $3.6 billion Queen's Wharf resort development in Brisbane, which is expected to open in 2023.

HONG KONG, July 5 (Reuters) - Macau reported 89 new coronavirus cases on Tuesday, taking the total to more than 900 infections since mid-June, as authorities in the world's biggest gambling hub race to contain its largest outbreak since the pandemic began.
HONG KONG, July 5 (Reuters) - Macau's executive council on Tuesday published draft rules for a retendering of casino licences ahead of the year-end expiration of such rights granted to gaming companies in the world's biggest gambling hub.

Originally, legendary fighter Oscar De La Hoya, 48, who retired in 2009, was set to fight Brazilian ex-UFC champion Vitor Belfort, 44, in an exhibition bout. But earlier this month, De La Hoya posted a video shot from a hospital bed. He has COVID-19 and can't fight.

The event was supposed to take place at Staples Center in De La Hoya's hometown of Los Angeles, but it's been moved to The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood, Florida. According to a report from ESPN, the California State Athletic Commission refused to sanction Holyfield-Belfort.

Aging boxer Evander Holyfield and former UFC champion Vitor Belfort are fighting today. If that wasn't strange enough, former President Donald Trump is on commentary duties. This could be the weirdest combat sport event of 2021, and in a year where YouTubers Logan Paul and Jake Paul have taken over boxing, that's saying something.

Sun, who is also accused of abandoning his post amid the COVID-19 outbreak, has pleaded guilty, state broadcaster CCTV said in a report on the trial, which is being held at the Intermediate Court in the northeastern city of Changchun.

Wanted you to hear directly from me that despite being fully vaccinated, I have contracted Covid and am not going to be able to fight next weekend. Preparing for this comeback has been everything to me over the last months, & I want to thank everyone for their tremendous support. pic.twitter.com/0wKEnr5Jzv

"I love great fighters and great fights," Donald Trump said in a press release. "I look forward to seeing both this Saturday night and sharing my thoughts ringside. You won't want to miss this special event."

July 11 (Reuters) - U.S. stock index futures fell on Monday, bracing for the start of the earnings season which could see profits come under pressure at a time of growing fears of an economic downturn due to aggressive interest rate hikes.

After a dismal first half of the year, U.S.
stocks started July on an upbeat note, however, market participants fear that upcoming quarterly results could trigger another selloff, with earnings potentially falling short of estimates.

The lawsuit says the lobbying effort was done on behalf of senior Chinese government officials, including Sun, who sought Wynn´s help in trying to get a Chinese national´s visa application denied, according to the complaint.

President and head of the ruling Communist Party Xi Jinping has waged a decade-long campaign against corruption that has ensnared numerous serving and retired high-ranking officials in what some see as politically motivated prosecutions.

In an announcement last year on Sun's expulsion from the party, he was accused of having displayed "extremely inflated political ambition and very poor political integrity," issuing groundless criticisms of the Party´s policies and spreading political rumors.

casino operators Las Vegas Sands, Wynn Resorts and Melco Resorts fell between 4.6% and 5.7% after Macau shut all its casinos for the first time in more than two years in a bid to contain the spread of COVID-19. (Reporting by Amruta Khandekar in Bengaluru; Editing by Shounak Dasgupta)

But they're not the only soundtrack available. Viewers can pick between the Trumps narrating the fight, or regular commentators Jim Lampley and Shawn Porter.

The report, which signaled a still strong labor market helped alleviate some fears about an immediate recession, but added to worries about more aggressive monetary policy tightening by the Fed to stamp out soaring inflation.

"I have contracted Covid and am not going to be able to fight next weekend," De La Hoya tweeted. "Preparing for this comeback has been everything to me over the last months, & I want to thank everyone for their tremendous support."
