THE thought of becoming the outright best boxer in his division continues to drive Anthony Crolla on. Chadderton-based Crolla, the WBA world lightweight champion, takes on Jorge Linares, the WBC king, for the Diamond title at the Manchester Arena on Saturday, September 24. Unifying the belts is something ‘Million Dollar’ has always dreamt of, but he knows he’s got his work cut out in the second defence of his title against tough Venezualan Linares, someone already widely regarded as the best at 135 lbs. Listen to Crolla speaking exclusively to Oldham Chronicle journalist Simon Smedley all about the build-up to the big fight in approximately nine weeks time.
