63 minutes ago Oleksandr Usyk wins heavyweight rematch to silence Tyson Fury in Riyadh

Ukrainian wins 116-112 on all three scorecardsBriton shakes his head and leaves ring speechlessOleksandr Usyk remains the shining king of boxing’s dark and chaotic world. The great Ukrainian retained his three titles as the heavyweight champion of the world when he defeated Tyson Fury on points in a defining contest in the early hours of Sunday morning in Riyadh. Usyk boxed with clinical authority to win clearly by a score of 116-112 on all three cards.The pace was unrelenting and, ultimately, Usyk was just too fast, too smart and too skilled for Fury. His movement, accuracy and precision of punching were simply too much for Fury, who tried valiantly and had his moments of success. But Fury flagged and he looked exhausted at key moments of the bout as Usyk pulled away to secure his ­comprehensive victory. Continue reading...

5 hours ago Obstinate Ange Postecoglou must find consistency at Spurs or a crunch will come | Jonathan Wilson

Doubts are growing around the Tottenham manager and his all-or-nothing team’s lack of a plan B will be tested by LiverpoolAlmost a season and a half has passed since Ange Postecoglou was appointed Tottenham manager and that means he is entering dangerous territory.
