Anthony Joshua has named Rob McCracken as his full-time coach.McCracken will be in Joshuas corner when he makes the latest defence of his IBF heavyweight title against Eric Molina at the Manchester Arena on Dec. 10.Joshua excelled under McCracken as an amateur, eventually winning an Olympic gold medal at London 2012 before turning professional in 2013.The 27-year-old will now be trained by McCracken after an agreement was reached to combine the new role with his position as performance director of Team GB boxing.Tony Sims had overseen Joshuas impressive progress as a professional but rumours had long persisted in boxing circles of the London fighter spending more time working with McCracken.It is little secret that, as with Carl Froch who McCracken also successfully guided as a professional, Joshua spent a significant amount of time training with the GB boxing squad at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield. Sims -- one of Britains busiest trainers -- will continue to assist McCracken.I have remained close to Rob and the GB Boxing squad since 2012, Joshua said. I have consistently turned to him for advice and guidance so I am really excited to have him in my corner.I would like to put on record my thanks to Tony Sims who will remain in my corner working with Rob as he did to such success with Carl Froch.The 48-year-old McCracken, who once challenged for the WBC middleweight title having also been the Commonwealth champion, added: Anthony is a special talent.I am looking forward to working with him on the next stage of his career as he looks to defend his titles and, ultimately, to unify the heavyweight division.I know from working with Carl Froch that combining my work coaching a top professional boxer with the role of performance director has mutual benefits and that having a world champion in the gym has a very positive impact on the whole of the GB Boxing squad.It gives the boxers an insight into what it takes to be the best in the world and provides top-class training opportunities that will help to develop and improve the heavyweight and super-heavyweight boxers in the squad.Jalen Collins Jersey .

Ahmad Thomas Jersey .C. -- Calgarys Kevin Koe did it the hard way again.After becoming the first team in the last 20 years to hold three straight opponents to less than 40 points, No. 7 Virginia will face its toughest test of the young season against Iowa on Friday night.The matchup between the Cavaliers and the Hawkeyes will take place in Niceville, Fla. in the semifinals of the Emerald Coast Classic.Virginia and Iowa last met in 2013 when the Hawkeyes defeated the Cavaliers 75-64 in the quarterfinals of the NIT. Much has changed since then as Virginia became a staple in the top 10, and the Cavaliers look for their best win of the season.I would say weve been tested, but tested against each other every day in practice, Virginia guard Darius Thompson said. We go against each other every day, battling against one of the better defenses in the country. I think our practices prepare us to play against anybody.Iowa (3-1) boasts the nations ninth-best scoring offense at 96.3 points per game. Guard Peter Jok has averaged 24 points per game so far this season, which leads the Big Ten, and the Hawkeyes have five players averaging at least seven points per contest.Jok needs just 31 points to reach the 1,000 mark for his career.

Jones is expected to miss eight to nine weeks of game action.Virginias perfect record of 4-0 will be put to the test against Fran McCafferys high-powered Iowa offense. The Cavaliers are ranked ffirst in the country in scoring defense this season as they allow just under 39 points per game.ddddddddddddI havent really played against a good defense yet this year, Jok said. Offensively, we will be good as long as we move the ball. We have a lot of guys that can score but to be successful we have to play defense too and that starts with me.Freshmen have been needed, and thrived for both teams in the early going of the season. Iowa and Virginia both boasted highly-touted freshman in and forward Tyler Cook and guard Kyle Guy, respectively.Cook has tallied double-digits in his last three games and is averaging just a tad under 15 points per game to compliment Jok. In the Hawkeyes win over Seton Hall, Cook scored a career-high 24 points and will be a handful for Virginias frontcourt despite his lack of collegiate experience.Guy has also been impressive in the Cavaliers 4-0 start. Guys coming out party came Tuesday night against Grambling State where he came off of the bench to score a game-high 20 points, which included a 5-for-6 mark from the three-point line.Virginias guards could be a matchup problem for Iowa, which has yet to face a superior opponent like the Cavaliers thus far this season.The winner of Fridays semifinal matchup will move on to Saturdays championship game against the winner of the Memphis-Providence game on Friday.Wholesale Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
