There have been renewed calls for boxing to be banned after the death of Scottish fighter Mike Towell.

The 25-year-old was rushed to hospital following his fight against Dale Evans in Glasgow and passed away 24 hours later.

Mr Towell's death comes less than seven months after Nick Blackwell suffered bleeding in his skull after a fight with Chris Eubank Jr.

The death has led to renewed calls for boxing to be banned.
