Crolla: "I'm going over there to shock the world".

Former lightweight world champion Anthony Crolla says victory over Vasyl Lomachenko in Los Angeles on April 12th would represent one of the biggest upsets in British boxing history.

Speaking to The Friday Sports Panel the 32-year-old said he's not bothered bookmakers to have him as a huge underdog for the fight against the Ukrainian who is a unified world champion.

Manchester-born Crolla - who suffered a fractured skull when he was hit by a concrete slab as he confronted two burglars in December 2014 told Eleanor Oldroyd: "I can't wait, I'm not going over there for a bit of experience or a bit of California sun, I'm going over there to shock the world."
