With three mandatory title bouts facing a Monday deadline before purse bids, one bout was agreed to and the other two were auctioned off at WBA headquarters in Panama City, Panama.Representatives for bantamweight world titleholder Raushee Warren (14-1, 4 KOs), of Cincinnati, and secondary titleholder Jamie McDonnell (28-2-1, 13 KOs), of England, made a deal. The details of when and where the fight will take place were not immediately announced, but it likely will take place this fall in the United Kingdom.Warren, 29, a three-time U.S. Olympian, won the 118-pound belt by majority decision in a rematch with Juan Carlos Payano on June 18 in Chicago.McDonnell (28-2-1, 13 KOs), 30, has defended his version of the belt four times, but the WBA, which has for years sanctioned three belts in the same division, said recently that it plans to reduce the number of titles it hands out and has been ordering fights that will eliminate the extra belts in each division.Warren-McDonnell is one of them.Promotional rights for two other fights, interim heavyweight titlist Luis King Kong Ortiz (25-0, 22 KOs) against 39-year-old Alexander Ustinov (33-1, 24 KOs), and secondary junior middleweight titleholder Jack Culcay (22-1, 11 KOs) versus former titleholder Demetrius Andrade (23-0, 16 KOs), were auctioned to the highest bidder.Vlad Hrunov, bidding on behalf of Russian promoter Andrey Ryabinskys World of Boxing, was the only bidder for Ortiz-Ustinov, winning with the minimum allowable bid of $600,000. Ortiz is entitled to 60 percent, meaning he will earn $360,000, and Ustinov is entitled to 40 percent, meaning his purse will be $240,000.Hrunov told ESPN.com that the fight is penciled in to take place on Nov. 19 in Moscow, Las Vegas or Minsk, Belarus, where Russian native Ustinov lives.However, Hrunov said there is a good chance that the fight will land at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas and take place on the HBO PPV card headlined by unified light heavyweight titleholder Sergey Kovalev taking on former super middleweight champion Andre Ward in one of the years most anticipated matches.Ortiz-Ustinov had already been agreed to and was ticketed to take place Sept. 17 at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on the HBO PPV undercard of Canelo Alvarez-Liam Smith.However, Ortiz, a 37-year-old southpaw, who defected from Cuba and lives in Miami, is in a contract dispute over his purse with his promoter, Golden Boy, and pulled out of the fight, forcing the purse bid.But Golden Boy did not bid, a clear indication that the sides are working on a settlement to go their separate ways.Sauerland Event, which promotes Culcay, won the rights to the bout with Andrade. It offered $425,000, which easily beat the only other offer, which was $201,000 made by Andrade co-promoter Artie Pelullo of Banner Promotions. The minimum bid was $150,000.Culcay is entitled to 75 percent of the winning bid ($318,750) and Andrade ($106,250) will get 25 percent.Culcay, 30, a native of Ecuador who fights out of Germany, was elevated from an interim titlist to full titleholder earlier this year.Andrade, a 28-year-old southpaw from Providence, Rhode Island, who represented the United States at the 2008 Olympics, beat Culcay in the 2007 World Amateur Championship on his way to a gold medal in that tournament, the most prestigious amateur tournament other than the Olympics.Don Majeski, bidding on behalf of Sauerland Event, told ESPN.com the bout would take place either in late October or early November in Germany.We lost the purse bid, but we are looking forward to the fight, Pelullo told ESPN.com. We wanted to make a deal, but it did not work out.Showtime is high on Andrade and televised his 12th-round knockout of Willie Nelson on June 11, his network debut.Pelullo said the network made a commitment to Andrade, but with the fight against Culcay ticketed to take place overseas, it remains to be seen what kind of American TV deal can be worked out.

With chaos ensuing in the college football world last week with half of the nations Top 10 -- including the Nos. 2, 3, and 4 teams -- all losing, No. 1 Alabama delivered a message as it emerged as the only undefeated team from a Power 5 conference.And that message?The message is when you win, you control your own destiny, Crimson Tide coach Nick Saban said. When you dont, you allow someone else to determine what your fates going to be. We have all these teams that lost one game now.Somebody has to decide who gets to do what.Top-ranked Alabama (10-0) hosts Chattanooga (8-2) on Saturday (7 p.m. ET, ESPN2) at Bryant-Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa.Almost, but not quite, overlooked as the upsets of No. 2 Clemson, No. 3 Michigan, No. 4 Ohio State, No. 8 Texas A&M, and No. 9 Auburn rolled in during the afternoon and evening last weekend was that the Crimson Tide clinched the SEC West.The 52-3 rout of Mississippi State coupled with Auburns loss at Georgia left them with a two-game cushion in the standings with only one SEC game left on the card. No matter what happens now, Alabama is a lock to play in the SEC championship game in Atlanta on Dec. 3.Also, no matter how it fares against Auburn in the Iron Bowl, the Tide looks to be heavily favored to beat the East winner -- either Florida or Tennessee -- in the title game and likely advance to the College Football Playoff. But although the Tide has overcome a loss to capture three of its four national titles under Saban, the coach wants no slip-ups down the stretch.If you put yourself in that situation, you let somebody else decided what your fate is, Saban said. If you take care of your business and do things the way you need to do it, then maybe you can control your own destiny in the way you play.Thats certainly much more the way we would like for it to be from our perspective. Weve got lots of tough games we have to play between now and then. We want to take it one game at a timme and focus on improving.ddddddddddddAlabama is on a 22-game winning streak, the longest of Sabans tenure and the third-longest in program history.Thats something that we take and try and keep going, Alabama wide receiver ArDarius Stewart said. Coach talks about it every week, all week, that you cant get complacent and you have to do all the little things right. Thats something we take pride in and try to do every week.The Tide put up impressive numbers against Mississippi State. Freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts became the first quarterback in Alabama history to throw for 300 yards (347) and rush for 100 yards (100) in the same game as he accounted for 447 yards of total offense, third-best in school history.Stewart became only the sixth player in program history to have three touchdown receptions in one game, and tight end O.J. Howard caught six passes for a season-high 77 yards with four of receptions resulting in first downs.We made a lot of explosive plays on offense, and executed in the passing game more efficiently and effectively, Saban said. Defensively, we made stops when we needed to when they made plays.Meanwhile, Chattanooga was losing for only the second time this season, a 36-28 setback to Wofford that dropped the Mocs five spots to No. 12 in the STATS media poll.Chattanooga is looking forward to the trip to Tuscaloosa.Our guys will be excited to play, Mocs coach Russ Huesman said. I think everybody knows this is the best team in the country. Our players know they have tremendous players, and I know they have tremendous coaches, very smart people there.Watching film, theyre not only athletic, but they do things right in all phases of the game. Its going to be a tough test, and were looking forward to it.Alabama won all 12 meetings, including 49-0 in the last encounter in 2013. ' ' '
