Carl Frampton hijacked the grand plans of the brilliant Leo Santa Cruz on Saturday night with a stunning win in New York.Frampton of Northern Ireland was the underdog, the challenger, moving up in weight and away from home, but he fought with incredible intelligence to take Santa Cruzs WBA featherweight title.Santa Cruz was unbeaten in 33 fights. The Frampton fight was his 12th in four years for a world title and he had a long list of future opponents. Santa Cruz was destined for, and had been selected for, dominance and continued lucrative TV fights; nobody told Frampton before the first bell.Ringside at Barclays Center in Brklyn, New York, the champions and potential future challengers watched the brilliant Frampton use his brain to take rounds and then take the belt. Santa Cruz talked about a rematch, possibly in Los Angeles, and that could happen. However, he lked broken by the loss and will need to answer a few harsh questions about his lack of tactics.Lee Selby, the IBF featherweight champion from Barry Island in Wales, was an excited ringside guest. It was a great performance and I would love a fight with Carl, he said. That fight is certainly feasible, as the pair shares the same adviser in Al Haymon.Every single world featherweight champion, the leading contenders and all of the best super bantamweights will now want a fight with Frampton. Both Frampton and Santa Cruz are refugees from the super bantamweight division, men who simply needed the extra 4 pounds in weight to allow them to continue fighting.On Saturday night Frampton, 29, tk a huge step toward stardom, and the lk on the faces of those in the Santa Cruz business was priceless. Frampton is now an attraction in America, but he has a lot of lucrative options in Britain and Ireland.A partial unification with Selby would do stunning business outdrs in Belfast, as would a rematch with the British Scott Quigg, another ringside spectator to the Frampton show. In February at a sold-out venue in Manchester, and in a big pay-per-view fight on Sky, Frampton broke Quiggs jaw and tk his unbeaten record as well as his WBA super bantamweight title.Frampton also trousered £1.5 million, phenomenal money for small men in any country and at any time. A rematch in Belfast would work -- Quigg wants it and it proves that British world champions are not dependent on the American market.The new WBO champion at featherweight, Oscar Valdez, who is unbeaten in 20 fights with 18 knockouts, would pose a fight that could top any bill in Las Vegas. A fight with the technically gifted WBC incumbent Gary Russell Jr. is another realistic option.We will lk at all the champions, the leading contenders and other fighters -- Carl is suddenly very popular, insisted Barry McGuigan, who is Framptons promoter and mentor. McGuigan won the same WBA featherweight belt 30 years and 13 champions ago. He was in tears at the end.There is another option -- one that is admittedly very unlikely but is possibly going to keep on surfacing -- and that is the brilliant Cuban Guillermo Rigondeaux. Frampton was ordered to defend his super bantamweight titles against Rigondeaux but tk the sensible option: vacating, gaining weight and beating Santa Cruz, who was as daunting a task as Rigondeaux. The Cuban congratulated Frampton and promised to keep chasing him. He is a true warrior and I know he will fight me, Rigondeaux said.Right now Frampton needs to let his face stop aching, rest his sore hands and enjoy a Belfast homecoming that perhaps no other active boxer, certainly none of Britains other 13 world champions, could dream of experiencing. Santa Cruz, meanwhile, will return to California to try and make sense of what happened. At the same time the fight fixers will go to work in their parlours and try and get their boxers a piece of the Frampton action. Nick Foles Jersey . The Nashville Predators were glad their captain was still on their side. Weber had a goal and two assists, and Roman Josi scored the shtout winner to lift the Predators to a 4-3 win over the Flyers on Thursday night. Yannick Ngakoue Womens Jersey . Lack made 20 saves for his third shutout of the season as the Canucks blanked the St. Louis Blues 1-0 in the first post-Olympic game for both teams night. http://www.officialjacksonvillejaguarspro.com/Josh-oliver-jaguars-jersey/ . -- Golden State Warriors coach Mark Jackson asked his players a simple question during Fridays morning shtaround: How many of them had ever been on a team 14 games over . Taven Bryan Jersey . The No. 1-ranked Nadal tweaked his back warming up for the Australian Open final, which he lost almost four weeks ago in a major upset against Stanislas Wawrinka. His first stop after the layoff is the clay in Rio as he tests the back and tries to stay healthy for the French Open in three months. Josh Oliver Jersey . McCarthy, a player who played some games in the second tier for Wigan at the start of this season, would go on to shine inside Evertons midfield, outplaying the man he was brought in to replace, on one of the grandest stages in English ftball. On Saturday, it was fitting that Manchester Uniteds most recent dagger into the chest was delivered by Frenchman Yohan Cabaye, a wonderfully gifted central midfielder who put on an outstanding effort for Newcastle at Old Trafford. Theres a quiet but distinct air of confidence about Filip Holosko this A-League season.It could be that Sydney FCs Slovak marquee is finally getting used to Australias hard pitches.Maybe t that his family is settled and his language skills improved to the point that the softly spoken 32-year-old swore in English after missing a header in Saturdays 4-0 win over Central Coast.But its perhaps Sydneys reinvented attack thats contributed most, unleashing an element of Holoskos game that lay dormant last campaign despite his 10 goals.Where Holosko previously operated solely on the right wing, his new tendency to drift into the centre as a second striker has already yielded him a league-high three goals in the opening two rounds.The clubs decision to reunite him with newly recruited Brazilian striker Bobo has been a revelation, their rekindled Besiktas partnership already bearing the kind of fruit championship contenders are made of.Its a relationship Holosko feels has allowed him to play with more freedom.Last year I played more wide but this year I am more like a second striker with Bobo, I feel this is better for me, Holosko said.I played with Bobo three or four years in Besiktas (in Turkey), so I know what to expect from him and he knows what to expect from me.Add to thhe fray the contributions of Milos Ninkovic, the fulcrum of the Sky Blues increasingly clinical attack.ddddddddddddThe skilful Serbian was superb at Allianz Stadium, anticipating Holoskos run with an inch-perfect pass that allowed the Slovak to score the opener before netting a second from the penalty spot for his 100th career goal.Holosko feels something is different about this season compared to the disappointment of the last.Im more settled, Holosko said.And Im used to the pitches in Australia... but we also have a better team than last year.Ninkovic felt most foreigners need a season to gel with new teammates and adjust to Australias physical league.Apart from Bobo, that is, who he was shocked to see excel straight away to the point coach Graham Arnold said the squad were still catching up to their new target man.Bobo makes probably 20-25 forward runs in behind per game and were not seeing them, Arnold said.Ninko and Brosquey can see them because theyre on that level of being switched on that way.But the young boys in midfield, Brandon (ONeill) and Joshy (Brillante), every week were lking at video showing them the runs Bobo is making.
