Wladimir Klitschko has called on Anthony Joshua to win in style when the Briton faces Eric Molina at Manchester Arena on Saturday.Ukraines Klitschko is next in line to fight Joshua and insisted he wants to test himself against the very best when he meets IBF heavyweight champion Joshua in the spring.Joshua is a clear favourite for Saturdays bout with American Molina and is expected to record the 18th consecutive knockout of his undefeated career, but Klitschko warned he wanted to see more than a run-of-the-mill victory.The better Joshua performs, the better it is, because I believe Joshua is right now one of the best men in the heavyweight division, Klitschko told Sky Sports.The better he performs, the better it is for the fans and also for myself, because I definitely want to fight the better man to get my titles back.Former WBA, IBF and WBO champion Klitschko surrendered his belts to Britains Tyson Fury last year in a shocking defeat and was denied the chance to reclaim them when Fury pulled out of a proposed rematch in October.Klitschko will be 41 when he faces Joshua next year but heavyweight boxings elder statesman insisted he has no intention of retiring after the shot at his former sparring partner, who is 13 years his junior.Retire? That has not crossed my mind, Klitschko told the Daily Mail. No-one else will ever have the right to tell me when to end my career.Having been champion for so long I did not expect to lose the titles. Now my view is altered. My motivation is different now -- to regain my titles -- and therefore even stronger.Klitschko added in his Sky Sports interview: I think [Joshuas] got even better since we sparred because he definitely gained more experience. Even in sparring I could see the talent and obviously he was green and not as much experienced when we fought. Gheorghe Muresan Jersey .

SOUTH BEND, Ind. -- The NCAA announced Tuesday that 77 percent of black mens Division I basketball players who entered college in 2009 earned a degree within six years, up five points from a year earlier and a record high.That improvement helped the overall Graduation Success Rate match last years record of 86 percent of athletes graduating within six years, the NCAA said. Of all black Division I student-athletes, 74 percent graduated within six years. NCAA President Mark Emmert said in a news release the improved rates were hugely significant.Over the last 15 years, the overall Graduation Success Rate has dramatically improved, but the really good news is how college sports helps more and more minority students, especially those playing our highest-profile sport, earn a degree that will help them long after their athletics career is over, he said.The graduation rate for black basketball players is up 31 percentage points over the past 15 years, the NCAA said . Overall, all black male athletes have increased their GSR by 19 percentage points to 70 percent during that time. Black female athletes improved their rate 13 points to 84 percent over that same time.For all Division I athletes, the rate increased 12 percentage points during the past 15 years.B. David Ridpath, an associate professor and sports business and president of The Drake Group, an NCAA watchdog, said the GSR provides only a partial picture, pointing to reports of athletes at North Carolina taking courses aimed at boosting their GPAs in a department popular with athletes.Are we essentially practicing eligibility maintenance, potentially in a major with friendly faculty? he said. Are these kids graduating with a very meaningful, vital degree that can benefit them for the next 50 to 60 years of their life? In some cases, yes, this is happening. But all too often -- aand I know this because I worked in college athletics -- were essentially pushing these kids through, keeping them eligible and in cases where they do graduate they might not be graduating with the requisite skills.ddddddddddddAmong football teams in The Associated Press Top 25 , the only teams with a GSR 65 percent or lower were No. 25 Troy at 65 percent and No. 13 Oklahoma State at 50 percent. Among Top 25 mens basketball teams , No. 4 Oregon had a GSR of 38 percent, No. 25 California 40 percent, No. 5 North Carolina, No. 18 Syracuse and No. 24 Cincinnati all had GSRs of 50 percent, and No. 13 Michigan State has a GSR of 63 percent.The University of Connecticut mens basketball team had one of the lower graduation rates at 22 percent, according to the latest results. But those 2009 numbers were actually a big improvement over previous years. The teams GSR rose from just 8 percent in 2006, 17 percent the following year and 20 percent in 2008.School spokesman Mike Enright said the poor graduation rate reflects the same time period for which UConn was sanctioned by the NCAA and missed the 2013 postseason because of an another indicator, the Academic Progress Rate, which measures whether players are in good academic standing.The school has reported perfect or near perfect APR scores since 2012-13 and is expecting similar numbers this year, Enright said. He also said all current members of the basketball team are on track to graduate.The academic achievement of our mens basketball team has been outstanding the past several years and I have a full expectation that this will continue, athletic director David Benedict said.---AP Sports Writer Pat Eaton-Robb in Storrs, Connecticut, contributed to this report.
