Scottish boxer Mike Towell has died in hospital after he was seriously injured in a bout.The 25-year-old had to be carried from the ring on a stretcher after a fifth-round loss to Dale Evans in a St Andrews Sporting Club fight in Glasgow on Thursday night.Towell, from Dundee, was then rushed to the citys Queen Elizabeth University Hospital by ambulance accompanied by his promoter, Tommy Gilmour.The death was later confirmed by Towells management, who are expected to release a statement later on Saturday morning.The British Boxing Board of Control, the sports governing body and licensing authority, has yet to comment.Members of the boxing community have paid tribute to Towell, dubbed Iron Mike.St Andrews Sporting Club said he will always be in our hearts while promoter Eddie Hearn said: Absolutely devastated by the passing of Mike Towell -- all of our thoughts with his friends and family at this time.Evans has yet to comment on his opponents death, but described Towell as a true warrior in a statement issued after he was taken to hospital.The Welshman said: The ingredients were there for an entertaining fight and it was that, we are both punchers and so sadly for Mike he came out the wrong side.I never wanted to see my opponent being stretchered out of the ring. Who would ever want that sight? That was so hard for his family and my heart goes out to them.The event at the Radisson Blu Hotel, Glasgow, was being broadcast on STV Glasgow when Towell was fatally injured.The boxer had been undefeated going into the bout -- which was an eliminator for the British welterweight title -- with 11 previous wins and one draw on his professional record.According to the BoxRec database of professional fights, Towell was knocked down in the first round and again in the fifth prior to the stoppage.The bout was refereed by Victor Loughlin, who was also in charge of the British middleweight title fight in March between Chris Eubank and Nick Blackwell, which ended the latters career after he suffered a bleed on the skull when he was stopped in 10 rounds.

From filmmaker Nanette Burstein (On the Ropes), The Price of Gold revisits the saga that rocked the figure skating world ahead of the 1994 Lillehammer Olympic Winter Games: the assault on Nancy Kerrigan, and the plot that led its way back to her rival Tonya Harding. The dogged ability of Frank Mason to drive to the rim coupled with the streaky outside shooting touch possessed by Devonte Graham are what gets noticed most about the smaller guards in the Kansas backcourt.Yet each guard contributes in other ways, as evidenced by the 11 assists Graham distributed in the No. 4 Jayhawks last victory, a 95-57 rout of North Carolina-Asheville.I thought (Graham) was really good, Kansas coach Bill Self said. Frank scored the points (21), but I thought Devonte was certainly the facilitator.Graham did so while surrounded by new starters.Self altered his lineup to include freshman center Udoka Azubuike and sophomore guard Lagerald Vick. Each contributed mightily, combining for 32 points. Azubuike slammed seven dunks while going 8-for-9 from the field and Vick went 6-for-7 and grabbed nine rebounds.Expect the new lineup, which also features one of the nations top freshmen, 6-foot-8 guard Josh Jackson, to remain intact as Kansas (5-1) continues a five-game homestand Tuesday against Long Beach State (1-7) at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kan.If Dok and Lagerald play like that, said Self, thats the best production weve gotten all year long from those two spots, so it could be permanent.That, of course, was meant as a motivational message, laced in truth, to the players they supplanted in the starting lineup, senior center Landen Lucas and sophomore forward Carlton Bragg.Count on Mason and Graham to be regulars, however, along with Jackson.Mason has topped the Jayhawks in scoring in five of six games and ranks second in the Big 12 Conference with a 21.5-point average while chipping in 5.0 assists and 4.3 rebounds. Graham averages 13 points and leads the Jayhawks in assists (34) and steals (10). Jackson averages 14.3 points, 5.0 assists and 4.3 rebounds.With those threee players as mainstays, Self has the depth to use different combinations best suited for the opponents Kansas faces.ddddddddddddConsidering Azubuike checks in as a 7-footer listed at 280 pounds, the Jayhawks have a frontline force who can impact the lane as long as he stays out of foul trouble.Well start based on scouting report a lot of times, and we havent ever done that, Self projected. But if a team plays small, well probably go small. If a team plays two bigs, we may go two bigs. But certainly it was nice to see Udoka have some success because, you know, he is a physical presence that we dont have and he can get so much better.Long Beach State, the preseason Big West favorite, will be making its eighth stop as part of a nine-game road swing. The brutal stretch has resulted in seven straight defeats -- at Wichita State, North Carolina, Louisville, UCLA, Washington, Binghamton and Florida Gulf Coast. The 49ers only win was at home in their opener against Cal State-Los Angeles.In its most recent game, Long Beach scored the first five points in overtime but lost to Florida Gulf Coast 68-67 on a layup with 2.4 seconds remaining.Although Dan Monson approved the grueling early-season run as a method to strengthen the 49ers resolve, and resume, the 10th-year coach expressed some regret.Im really concerned about them mentally because of all the years Ive done this, this has been the hardest stretch and this team was not ready for it, Monson told the Orange County Register.The schedule has also prompted Monson to look at various combinations. Ten players average 11-plus minutes.Junior forward Gabe Levin leads Long Beach State in scoring (13.0) and rebounding (7.6). ' ' '
