LONDON -- The highly anticipated rematch between British fighters Carl Froch and George Groves for the WBA and IBF super-middleweight titles will be at Wembley Stadium on May 31.
[b]Wholesale Royals Jerseys[/b] . Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn confirmed the venue on Tuesday. With Wembley able to seat up to 90,000, the fight is expected to set a post-World War II attendance record for a boxing match in Britain. The record is 56,000 in 2008 for Ricky Hatton-Juan Lazcano at the City of Manchester Stadium. "Its brilliant news for many, many reasons," the London-born Groves said. "This is a huge fight. It needed to go to an impressive stadium and Wembley is top of the list. For me personally, its going to be a great night. I was at that record-breaking Hatton fight, wow, what an atmosphere. Were going to have the same this time round, except Im going to put Carl Froch to sleep as well. Theyve got that to look forward to." Froch retained his WBA and IBF titles with a ninth-round stoppage against Groves in Manchester on Nov. 23. Groves launched an appeal, saying referee Howard Foster stopped the fight prematurely, and the IBF then ordered a rematch. Frochs belts will be at stake again at the historic football ground. Wembley staff will be facing a tight deadline to get the stadium ready in time after an England-Peru football friendly just 24 hours earlier.

Parra earned his second Gold Glove last season when he set a club record with 17 outfield assists.Not long before the San Antonio Spurs were set to tip-off against the Minnesota Timberwolves last weekend, coach Gregg Popovich found out that Manu Ginobili and Marco Belinelli were not going to be available because of injuries.It was the latest in a series of unexpected obstacles that have gotten in the Spurs way during their first title defence since the 2007-08 season.Manu was a surprise losing him. Losing Bellie today makes us, you know, a little bit paranoid, Popovich confessed before the Spurs easily dispatched the lowly Wolves, 108-93.Paranoid? The Spurs? In January?The Spurs have spent almost 20 years turning the NBAs regular season into nothing more than a six-month warmup for the playoffs.They manage minutes, develop bench players and set recovery times from injury with an eye not on winning games in the regular season, but making sure the team is adequately prepared and rested for the 2 1/2-month post-season grind.Popovich has perfected the art of the 82-game ramp-up, never getting overly concerned about how the team is playing in winter so long as they are progressing to where they need to be come spring time. And thats easy to do when the Spurs also own the best regular season winning percentage in the league over the past decade.But after the Spurs took their game to heights rarely seen in steam-rolling through the playoffs and beating the Miami Heat for the franchises fifth championship last June, they are in the unfamiliar position of chasing the pack.They are 23-15, good for just seventh in the powerful Western Conference and three games behind sixth-seeded Dallas.We had that tough schedule last month, and we put ourselves in a hole. Its a long season, and its time, weve got time to fight back, Tim Duncan said. But weve got to start now. Weve got to start focusing, concentrating on racking up the wins no matter where it is whether its home or on the road or whoever its against.They have dealt with a litany of injuries that has really prevented them from finding any kind of a groove this season.
[b]Royals Brandon Maurer Jersey[/b]. The Spurs went 8-10 in December — the first time in the Duncan era that they lost more games than they won in a month. And it has injected an uncommon sense of urgency in a team that rarely sweats the standings this early in the season.Every game is going to mean something, Popovich said. Were disappointed were in the position we are. We lost some games we could have won. And we were just injured at the wrong time. December was a heck of a month for us schedule-wise, and being injured at that time was tough.Kawhi Leonard, Tiago Splitter and Tony Parker have all missed big chunks of time with injuries while Manu Ginobili and Belinelli have suffered the nagging, more minor variety.If we knew who was out, that would be good, Popovich said. But its been someone different every night. If we knew a few guys would be out for three weeks, then you can get into a rhythm with that group. But we havent been able to do that because it seems like its different people every other game.After beating the Timberwolves on Saturday night, the Spurs have won four of their past five games. A win in Washington on Tuesday would give them their first three-game winning streak in more than a month.A modest achievement like that is hardly something these level-headed Spurs would celebrate. But their uneven start to the season, and the incredible level of competition in the Western Conference playoff field this year, has put them in this position. So as they have done so many times before, they are adjusting their approach, and trying to ramp things up a little earlier than they normally would.We need to get on a rhythm, get some chemistry going, guard Danny Green said. And putting some games together would be nice.___Follow Jon Krawczynski on Twitter:
