  • World Title Challenger Duhaupas: “Hrgovi?'S Style
    WORLD TITLE CHALLENGER DUHAUPAS: “HRGOVI?’S STYLE AND ABILITY ARE SIMILAR TO VITALI KLITSCHKO” Former WBC World Heavyweight Title Challenger and WBA International Heavyweight Champion Johann Duhaupas has compared Filip Hrgovi? (9-0, 7 KOs) to legendary three-time World Heavyweight Champion Vitali Klitschko. The experienced Frenchman has been in Miami sparring Hrgovi?, alongside undefeated British heavyweight prospect Fabio Wardley and top Belgian cruiserweight Joel Tambwe Djeko, ahead of his WBC International Title clash with Eric Molina (27-5, 19 KOs) on December 7th at the purpose built Diriyah Arena in Saudi Arabia. Duhaupas, who first encountered Hrgovi? at a Wladimir Klitschko training camp in Austria, says he has been impressed with the fast rising Croatian star, and states his ‘style and ability’ are similar to the elder Klitschko brother Vitali. “I first met Filip at the Klitschko camp in Austria and he impressed me,” said Duhaupas. “He has a good right hand, fast and strong, and you can see he aims to become a World Champion. I smell it in him. His style and ability are similar to Vitali Klitschko. Duhaupas is renowned for fighting some of the heavyweight division’s elite talent having faced the likes of Deontay Wilder, Alexander Povetkin and Jarrell Miller, and believes Hrgovi? is now ready to face similar big names. “Deontay is a killer, but Filip already has a good right hand and maybe in one year with more muscle and power he could punch as hard as Wilder,” says Duhaupas. “With good mental and physical preparation, I believe Filip could win by KO against Miller or Povetkin.” Hrgovi? must first overcome two-time World Title Challenger Molina from Texas, USA.

  • Fiery Net Spell Sees S Lanka Turn Tables on New Zealand
    Sports FRIDAY, JANUARY 1, 2016 45 Marsh finds pace to scratch ‘pad rash’ itch MELBOURNE: Having spent much of the home sum- mer suffering “pad rash” from waiting to bat, Australia all-rounder Mitchell Marsh has put the pent- up energy to good use when thrown the ball. With paceman Peter Siddle hampered by an ankle injury, Marsh stepped up to take 4-61 to help close out victory in the second test against West Indies on Tuesday on a Melbourne Cricket Ground pitch offer- ing little for bowlers. High-fives from team mates were no doubt plentiful in the dressing room, with Marsh having played a big part in preventing them all from having to come back on a fifth day to take care of the West Indies tail. His fast bowling colleagues and selectors will also have been impressed with the 24-year-old’s pace. The speed gun clocked some of his deliveries at over 140 kph. Australia coach Darren Lehmann remarked that Marsh could shape as a de facto third seamer for the third and final test at the Sydney Cricket Ground if selectors picked two spinners. “It’s quite flattering NELSON: Tillakaratne Dilshan (R) of Sri Lanka plays a shot in front of New Zealand wicketkeeper Luke Ronchi during the to hear that, but the biggest thing for me is just play- 3rd One Day International cricket match between New Zealand and Sri Lanka at Saxton Oval in Nelson yesterday. — AFP ing my role,” Marsh told reporters in Melbourne. “Over the last 18 months I’ve worked really hard with (bowling coach) Craig McDermott to try and get Fiery net spell sees S Lanka a few extra K’s (kph) on my bowling and certainly over the last few months I’ve felt like I’m just getting turn tables on New Zealand a bit faster and faster in every game that I play.

  • Afghanistan Celebrate Historic Series Triumph
    SUNDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2015 SPORTS Pakistan turn the screw after England’s collapse DUBAI: Misbah-ul-Haq and Younus Khan made half- centuries as Pakistan ambled to 222 for three at the close on day three of the second Test yesterday, 358 runs ahead of England after Wahab Riaz and Yasir Shah had scuttled the tourists lower order before lunch. It was a truly abject day for England who lost their final seven wickets for 36 runs to be all out for 242, wrecking their chances of becoming the first team to defeat Pakistan in a test series in the UAE. That collapse meant England needed to bowl out Pakistan cheaply to stand any chance of a remarkable comeback and Alastair Cook’s men got off to the best possible start. Opener Shan Masood (one) had been fortunate as a diving Jos Buttler spilled his nick off Stuart Broad, but England’s wicketkeeper made amends, snaffling anoth- er Masood edge off James Anderson the following over.
