Australias brightest boxing talent, Jeff Horn, hopes hes done enough to impress legendary promoter Bob Arum after a crushing win over South African veteran Ali Funeka in Auckland.The sixth-round technical knockout victory on Saturday night - Horns 16th as a professional and by far the most significant of his career - is a huge step towards setting up a dream date with Manny Pacquiao in 2017.It means the 28-year-old former teacher from Brisbane is potentially just one fight away from a meeting with the legendary Filipino and WBO welterweight champion.Arum, Pacquiaos promoter, watched on from ringside at Vector Arena, with Horns fight the main support to Kiwi Joseph Parkers heavyweight world title clash against American-Mexican Andy Ruiz Jr.Im hoping he was impressed with it, said Horn, who retained the WBO intercontinental welterweight title and kept his undefeated record in tact.(Funeka) was an awkward fighter but I finished it in round six.I know the start was a bit slow but I was happy with the finish so he will be, surely.Its just smarter to work your way into a fight like that. I knew I was going to break him down over time, then step that up.Arum has signed a co-promotion deal with Horns promoters Duco Events and had floated his intention to bring him to the US early next year to face Jessie Vargas or Timothy Bradley, two other fighters in his Top Rank stable, if he was able to overcome Funeka.Horn believes hes ready to take on anyone in the world.Im happy to fight one of those big names next. Youve got to beat those type of guys to get noticed, especially in the U.S., he said.The experienced Funeka had a 10cm height and reach advantage but his lanky frame proved his undoing, with Horns full-on body assault paying rich dividends.Horn copped a few early jabs from Funeka but always looked to have the 38-year-olds measure, even after a head clash prompted the referee to controversially rule a knockdown in the dying seconds of the third round.In the next round, Horn opened up a gash above Funekas left eye and sensed his opportunity.He finished the job by sending a visibly tired Funeka crashing to the canvas with a sharp right hand - just the second time the South African had been stopped in his 21-year career.Once you see blood you have to go for it. Its like a shark in the water, he said. Lester Hayes Raiders Jersey .

TRONDHEIM, Norway -- A superb solo goal by Dani Carvajal just before the end of extra time gave Real Madrid a 3-2 victory over 10-man Spanish rival Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup on Tuesday.Madrid, the Champions League winners in May, took the lead in the 21st minute through Marco Asensio against a Sevilla side that lifted the Europa League trophy for a third straight time last season.Sevilla hit back with an equalizer from Franco Vazquez and a second half penalty from Yevhen Konoplyanka that looked to have sealed Europes pre-season showcase match.But captain Sergio Ramos leveled for Madrid in the third minute of stoppage time and Sevilla defender Timothee Kolodziejczak was sent off at the start of extra time, before Carvajal went on a run from the halfway line to score the winner in the 119th minute.The essence of Real Madrid is that we never give up, Carvajal said. A goal after the 90th minute and another one at the end of the added period make us champions.While Zinedine Zidane became the fifth coach to win the trophy also as a player, his milestone spoiled the competitive debut of counterpart Jorge Sampaoli at his new club.A new-look Sevilla side that has lost Kevin Gameiro, Gregorz Krychowiak and Ever Banega during the offseason fell to the Champions League winner for the third straight season. In a cup match that has been dominated by Spanish sides in recent years, Madrid beat Sevilla 2-0 two years ago before Barcelona also needed added time to prevail 5-4 last year.Its unbelievable that the match got away from us, Sevilla defender Nico Pareja said. We deserved to win. We played better andd in one detail it slipped away.ddddddddddddWith star forward Cristiano Ronaldo injured, Gareth Bale not in the squad, and Karim Benzema only fit to play the last half hour, Madrid had to turn to a pair of defenders and a youngster making his first appearance in European competition for its goals.Helping to fill in for a Madrid side that was also missing Toni Kroos from midfield, 20-year-old Asensio staked his claim to a spot with Zidanes team with an exquisite left-foot shot from outside the area that dipped just in time to squeeze inside the woodwork.Sevilla, however, held firm and responded through Vazquez, who slotted the ball inside the far post when it fell to him in the area four minutes before halftime.The stalemate lasted until Victor Vitolo Machin was brought down by Ramos inside the box in the 72nd minute, allowing Konoplyanka to roll his spot kick into the corner while goalkeeper Kiko Casilla went the wrong way.Sevilla appeared to have the elusive trophy in hand until Ramos came through in heroic fashion, similar to his headed goal that sent the 2014 Champions League final into extra time before Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 4-1.The Spain centerback made up for conceding the penalty by joining the fray in front of the goalmouth, where he nodded home Lucas Vazquezs cross with seconds remaining in stoppage time.I was lucky enough to level the match, but the team showed it can rise above any injuries, and our young players really gave it their all, Ramos said.
