Hamed fight in doubt after hand injury
Boxing
Naseem Hamed's first defence of his World Organisation featherweight title could be in doubt after the Sheffield fighter hurt a hand in training.
Hamed, nicknamed the Prince, is due to fight the Mexican, Arnulfo Castillo, at London Arena on 9 December, but the fight might have to be put back to the New Year.
