Hardy knocked out Rory Markham, with a vicious left hook in the very first round. The London crowd went bezerk as Hardy mounted the cage pounding his heart. I was there and trust me it was magic, he went from a relative unknown to an instant crowd favourite. There is something very likeable about "The Outlaw" and this came to light in February.

Too early to be concerned? Wizards have a sense of urgency

But after watching his team lose the last four on their recent five-game road trip, coach Rory White already hears the clock ticking. "We're very concerned," White said. "Any time you lose four in a row, there's always a reason. I don't like the theory of saying, ‘It's early.' "It's not early anymore. It's time to tighten up the screws." The Wizards (2-5) have their next three at home - tonight against Sioux Falls, then Sunday and Tuesday against Utah. "They're important games," White said. "We have teams coming in that have winning records. ... They're very tough games, and we have to be physically and mentally more ready than we've been...

Live Cricket Scores, South Africa v England
If the 2005 Ashes is destined to go down in the history books as a clash of the titans - two of cricket's most talented sides facing off in an intense series of undeniable quality - then the place of the 2009 edition in the sport's canon is less assured. The result was the same, an England victory in front of some fevered home support, but the manner was entirely different. Four years ago it was not unreasonable to frame the contest as a meeting of the world's best. This time, after formidable upheavals in both camps, it was expected to be more a question of which side was least flawed. But ask Andrew Strauss, Andy Flower or any recreational cricketer in the country who...
