Carl Frampton believes his next opponent Leo Santa Cruz is overlooking him ahead of their fight on July 30.Frampton (22-0, 14 KOs) believes Santa Cruz (32-0-1, 18 KOs) got a false impression of him when he witnessed from ringside the Northern Irishman being dropped twice by little-known Alejandro Gonzalez Jr. in the opening round in Texas last year.But Frampton, 29, recovered to win a unanimous points decision and is back in America to challenge WBA world featherweight champion Santa Cruz at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.Belfasts former WBA-IBF world super-bantamweight champion is taking encouragement from his belief that Mexican Santa Cruz, 27, is underestimating him.I think hes overlooking me, Frampton told ESPN. The only time hes seen me in the flesh was when I had my worst performance against Alejandro Gonzalez Jr. in Texas a year ago, and he thinks Im chinny. I got put down twice in the first round but I came back to win comfortably and hes judging me by that performance.But thats OK, hopefully he comes to try and knock me out. Hes going to come forward and that will suit me.Scott Quigg didnt want to engage [in a unanimous points win for Frampton in February] and for six rounds it was a ver ? ? ? ? ?y boring fight, but this one will be different.Santa Cruz has never fought defensively in his life. Hes a come forward and it will be interesting what he does when I start catching him.Three-weight world champion Santa Cruz, who is based in Los Angeles, will have a three-inch height advantage over Frampton and will also be more accustomed to fighting at featherweight.The pair were linked to fighting each other at super-bantamweight before Santa Cruz stepped up to featherweight last year where he has had three fights.Hes three inches taller but I dont mind that, Frampton added. Its very rarely that I box someone that is smaller than me and I think I will be heavier than him on the night.Remember he started as a bantamweight and when I saw him in the flesh in El Paso when I fought Gonzalez he didnt look like a really strong guy, he looks skinny.Frampton, one of Northern Irelands biggest sports stars along with golfer Rory McIlroy, would be open to a fight against Welshman Lee Selby -- the IBF world featherweight champion -- after his date with Santa Cruz.Lee Selby would be a huge fight and someone Ive always respected and admired, Frampton said.Im not going to be calling him out but if I get past Leo Santa Cruz it could be a huge fight and I think its one I would want in Belfast as the A fighter.

Nike Shox Cheap Online . -- Jimmy Walkers first PGA Tour trophy came with a special gift tucked inside. SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- Three weeks ago, Ryan Anderson scoffed at the idea of Houston becoming the first team in NBA history to attempt 50 3-pointers in one game.Now that it happened, Anderson is fully convinced the Rockets can and will do it again.James Harden had 23 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in his fourth triple-double of the season, leading the Rockets to a 117-104 victory over the Sacramento Kings on Friday in their record-setting night.Thats this style of play that we built around James . and we have shooters, said Anderson, who made three 3s and scored 13 points. The great part about it, it didnt seem like we took 50. They were in rhythm, they were good looks and those are shots we normally take.The Rockets went 21 of 50 from beyond the arc and came within two makes of matching the single-game record they already share with the Orlando Magic.The Rockets made eight 3s in the first quarter, six in the second, three in the third and four in the fourth. Their record for attempts came on just 85 shots overall.I dont mind it but Ill like to get the record for the most makes, not just the most attempts, Houston coach Mike DAntoni said. If thats what theyre giving us, thats what well take.

Weve got to hold ourselves accountable, take responsibility for it and change these mistakes. This probably wont be the last time we see a team get hot like that.ddddddddddddSacrament coach Dave Joerger said the Kings slow start was too much to overcome.We didnt come in and bring enough force early in the game, Joerger said. They came in very focused, we came in definitely too slow. They got too many loose balls (and) made 3s.Ariza led Houstons 3-point barrage, going 6 of 11. Eric Gordon added four while Harden had three. Gordon finished with 14 points, one of seven Rockets in double figures.TIP-INSRockets: Houston led by as much as 29 but had to hold off Sacramentos late surge to win in the opener of its five-game road trip. .. Ariza made four 3s in the first quarter. ... Anderson grew up just outside of Sacramento and was a big Kings fan.Kings: Joerger juggled his lineup after halftime and replaced Ty Lawson with Arron Afflalo. Afflalo started 14 of Sacramentos first 15 games but Joerger has been experimenting with a smaller backcourt at times. . Joerger was given a technical foul in the fourth quarter.ROCKETS DEEP STREAKHouston has made at least 10 3-pointers in its last 15 games, one shy of the NBA record set last year by Golden State and matched later in the season by Cleveland. The Rockets last failed to reach double digits beyond the arc in the season opener, when they made seven.COUSINS BIG BURSTCousins set a career-high with five 3s, four coming in a two-minute stretch late in the fourth quarter.
