Anthony Crolla

Everybody at Matchroom Sport was shocked and saddened to hear of the injuries suffered by Anthony Crolla earlier this week.

Anthony is regarded as one of the nicest people in boxing, and the number of well wishes he has received is testament to this.

He had been working incredibly hard in the build up to his WBA World Lightweight title challenge against Richar Abril, which has now been postponed from its original January date.

Last week we visited Anthony at Joe Gallagher’s gym to film some of the work he had been putting in ahead of the fight, and you can see some of the footage in the video above.
