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. Custom Brewers Jerseys . -- Devin Hester is done returning kicks in Chicago.

James Anderson only arrived in India on Tuesday night but he retains hopes of being fit to play in the second Test against India.Anderson has not played a game since August having suffered a stress fracture in his right shoulder. But, having been cleared to join the tour last week, he is now keen to prove himself in the nets over the coming days and stake a claim for selection for the Test starting in Visakhapatnam on November 17.I had a good week at Loughborough last week, bowling to get some overs under my belt, Anderson told Sky Sports. Hopefully I can keep that going this week and get some miles into my legs to make sure Im as fit as I can be and maybe be fit for the second Test.It is still over a week away so it is hard to say for sure right now. It all depends how the week goes, but Im sure in the next two or three days well have an idea of whether that is a possibility or not.At the tender age of 34 Ive got enough experience to get into match mode quite quickly. Obviously it is not always easy without having any games under my belt, but I think I am able to do that.While it remains more likely that Anderson will return to the side for the third or fourth Tests, he has been encouraged by the speed of his recent recovery.We initially thought maybe the fourth Test was a possibility, but the way Ive progressed over the last three or four weeks has been positive, Anderson said.ddddddddddddI had a stress fracture of the shoulder blades at the back of my shoulder. It was a bit weird. I think it was just workload thing. I injured the muscle against Sri Lanka in May. The stress fracture has healed now and hopefully that will last.I bowled 30 overs last week and now it is just about carrying that on and maybe upping the intensity a little bit. The rest is just standing around and getting those miles in the legs and being used to being on your feet for seven or eight hours a day.Despite being unable to take part in the first Test - Anderson was given Wednesday off and will bowl in the nets in Rajkot on Thursday - he was delighted to be at the ground to see Stuart Broad awarded a silver cap by Andrew Strauss to mark his 100th Test.I thought I was going to miss it but it is great that I got out here in time and saw him get his cap from Straussy, Anderson said. Its an amazing achievement. Hes been a fantastic bowler for years and Ive been fortunate enough to play in the majority of his Tests as well. We talk a lot about the game, we know each others game inside out and we talk a lot on the field.Weve developed a great friendship on and off the field and Im just delighted that Im here. ' ' '
