Anthony Crolla apologises to Manchester fans after falling short in World title rematch with Jorge Linares Anthony Crolla apologised to his fans for losing again to Jorge Linares and vowed he would return. Crolla was heartbroken at being outclassed by Linares and all three judges scored it 118-109. The proud Mancunian told his home crowd at Manchester Arena: “Manchester, I’m so sorry I could not win for you. “Your support... you turn up time after time. It means so much to me and I’m sorry I couldn’t win back the world title.”

NEW YORK — Daniel Jacobs defeated cancer. But he could not defeat Gennady Golovkin. At Madison Square Garden on Saturday night before a sellout crowd of 19,939, Golovkin remained undefeated with a unanimous decision that was met with boos by the crowd. Golovkin won by scores of 115-112 twice and 114-113. USA TODAY scored it 115-113 for Jacobs.

“If Conor McGregor really wants this fight to happen, stop blowing smoke up everybody’s ass. Sign the paper. Sign the paper. You said you were boss, just sign the paper and let’s make it happen.”

Danny Garcia lost to Keith Thurman last night in a split decision, and his father and trainer, Angel Garcia, took the loss about as well as you’d have predicted he would. He used a post-fight rant to share some thoughts on the validity of Thurman’s win (he thinks it was disgusting), how he would have scored the fight (he thinks his son won seven rounds) and the male anatomy of everyone who is not from Philadelphia (he thinks it’s small): “[Thurman] ain’t no fucking champion. The WBC was disgusted to give him the belt! ... Because he ain’t win, that’s why ... I’m disgusted with this shit. [Thurman] lost, my brother. He ran the whole fucking night ... for real, for real, I want Danny to retire today.... I had it seven, I’ll give [Thurman] five [rounds]. I’ll give him five rounds if anything - he ain’t fucking win. The WBC was disgusted to give him the fucking belt.... Danny knock him the fuck out, that’s what Danny should have done - knock him the fuck out. ‘Cause [Thurman] was the favorite going in, everybody who favored him was on his motherfucking dick all the way down to his balls! They was sucking his penis from the top of the penis — or a little dick probably. He ain’t from Philly, he ain’t got a big dick. You gotta be from Philly to have a big dick.”

Does Saturday's welterweight title fight between titleholders Keith Thurman and Danny Garcia at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, actually have a chance of being such a fight?

It was a competitive fight and a game effort by McDonnell, but the much taller Vargas put his size to good use in pulling away to a 117-111, 116-112, 114-114 verdict. McDonnell failed to match twin brother Jamie as a world ruler. Jamie holds the WBA bantamweight crown. Notes: Vargas and McDonnell were fighting for the title vacated by Japan’s Hozumi Hasegawa who retired. Judges Nathan Palmer and Max De Luca (both from the USA) had Vargas comfortably ahead. British judge Ian John-Lewis from the UK somehow scored the bout even. Rey Vargas Record http://boxrec.com/boxer/542148 Alvarez KOs Bute in fifth round Friday night By Dave Spencer (Fightnews.com) In a battle of two top ranked Quebec boxers, Elieder Alvarez scored a big 5th round knockout over former world champion Lucian Bute (32-4-1) on Friday night at the Videotron Centre in Quebec City. Bute seemed to be getting the better of things, with good movement jab a defense but Alvarez turned things around on a dime with two crushing right hands to put Bute down and out. The first right stood the former champ straight up and the second crashing down to the canvas, where try as he might, he just couldn’t get to his feet. Alvarez stays undefeated and moves to 22-0 with the WBC light-heavyweight title eliminator win and is in line to face-off in another all Quebec match-up versus world champion Adonis Stevenson. After two very close opening rounds Bute seemed to be gaining the upper hand in rounds three and four, able to frustrate the Colombian born Alzarez and not letting him get off, that all quickly changed though as Bute who now has just two wins in his last seven was stopped for the second time in his career. Now 36, retirement seems to be on the horizon for the former champion. The win goes down as the second versus Bute for Montreal trainer Marc Ramsey who was also at helm when former world champion Jean Pascal scored a points victory in 2014.
