hat theres a little bit more margin for error. If anything,

Australias brightest boxing talent, Jeff Horn, hopes hes done enough to impress legendary promoter Bob Arum after a crushing win over South African veteran Ali Funeka in Auckland.The sixth-round technical knockout victory on Saturday night - Horns 16th as a professional and by far the most significant of his career - is a huge step towards setting up a dream date with Manny Pacquiao in 2017.It means the 28-year-old former teacher from Brisbane is potentially just one fight away from a meeting with the legendary Filipino and WBO welterweight champion.Arum, Pacquiaos promoter, watched on from ringside at Vector Arena, with Horns fight the main support to Kiwi Joseph Parkers heavyweight world title clash against American-Mexican Andy Ruiz Jr.Im hoping he was impressed with it, said Horn, who retained the WBO intercontinental welterweight title and kept his undefeated record in tact.(Funeka) was an awkward fighter but I finished it in round six.I know the start was a bit slow but I was happy with the finish so he will be, surely.Its just smarter to work your way into a fight like that. I knew I was going to break him down over time, then step that up.Arum has signed a co-promotion deal with Horns promoters Duco Events and had floated his intention to bring him to the US early next year to face Jessie Vargas or Timothy Bradley, two other fighters in his Top Rank stable, if he was able to overcome Funeka.Horn believes hes ready to take on anyone in the world.Im happy to fight one of those big names next. Youve got to beat those type of guys to get noticed, especially in the U.S., he said.The experienced Funeka had a 10cm height and reach advantage but his lanky frame proved his undoing, with Horns full-on body assault paying rich dividends.Horn copped a few early jabs from Funeka but always looked to have the 38-year-olds measure, even after a head clash prompted the referee to controversially rule a knockdown in the dying seconds of the third round.In the next round, Horn opened up a gash above Funekas left eye and sensed his opportunity.He finished the job by sending a visibly tired Funeka crashing to the canvas with a sharp right hand - just the second time the South African had been stopped in his 21-year career.Once you see blood you have to go for it. Its like a shark in the water, he said.

It was obvious that something was about to happen, even to the referees because the fourth lines were on to start. KANSAS CITY, Kan. -- Jimmie Johnson could feel the pressure mounting all season as he continued to turn into the garage area rather than Victory Lane after failing to win Sprint Cup races.Sweet relief came last weekend at Charlotte.And its made this weekend at Kansas feel a whole lot better, too.The six-time champion made a big move in his pursuit of a record-tying seventh when Johnson won the opening race in the round of 12 of the Chase. It locked him into the round of eight, taking the pressure off not only at Kansas Speedway on Sunday but unpredictable Talladega next week.Four drivers will be eliminated following the third race of the round.A victory is a huge boost, theres no way around that for myself, my crew members, everyone at Hendrick Motorsports, Johnson said. But this Chase, some felt like it got off to a calm start and last weekend, with half the Chase guys having issues, it just shows that anything can happen.Indeed, the pressure is now ramped up on the 11 other drivers trying to advance to the next round, and especially the five that finished out of the top 30 at Charlotte.Engine trouble, wrecks and all kinds of misfortune conspired to doom Denny Hamlin, Kevin Harvick, Joey Logano, Chase Elliott and Austin Dillon. For them, with a big points gap to make up on the rest of the Chase drivers, there is even more desperation to win at Kansas.Eight points separates Hamlin in eighth place from Harvick in 12th.The only one not worried about Talladega right now is Jimmie Johnson, said Chase contender Martin Truex Jr. You just never know. You could finish 40th there, anyone could. Were doing to do the best job we can this weekend and hopefully have a shot at winning, but theres no guarantees.Johnson is certainly aware of that pressure.You worry about yourself, he said, but if others have trouble, when they have trouble -- its chaos. When the first round starts, sure, you worry about points, but as each race goes by, one mistakes, its just tough. And theres no clear-cut path to the final four at Homestead.The closesst thing to a clear path is winning.ddddddddddddJohnson also knows that quite well.It was only a year ago that his Chase ended in the first round. He blew a tire at Chicago and had to salvage a decent finish there, then blew another tire at New Hampshire before ending up sixth. Everything came to an end at Dover, where a broken drove line knocked him from title contention.We were disappointed, especially the way it happened, Johnson acknowledged on a gloomy Friday at Kansas, where mist forced dryers to spend the morning on the track. It was unfortunate we didnt have a chance at the championship. I heard the term `second-class citizen used.Johnson still intends to race for wins the next two weeks, he just knows that theres a little bit more margin for error. If anything, it makes him even more dangerous at Kansas, where he won the spring race a year ago and where Hendrick Motorsports has had plenty of success.Last year, Logano won the opening race of the second round at Charlotte, and that gave him carte blanche to race Kenseth hard in the closing laps and win the race at Kansas.Meanwhile, the win also gives Johnson some wiggle-room to lend a helping hand.Elliott, his teammate, has been knocking on the door of wins all season, and the rookie led 103 laps at Charlotte before a wreck ruined his afternoon. Now, Johnson can work with him at Kansas and Talladega to get another Hendrick car into the next round of the Chase.From an on-track standpoint, Talladega is the place where I could help him or could work with him, Johnson said, referring to the restrictor-plate style of racing. You know we want to win the race here and do all we can, and if we cant of course we want the 24 to, and they need to have a great day.But if theres a duel between us and the 24 car, I want to win, he added. Weve all been leaning on each other tremendously so that will be there, but come race time, we still have to race. ' ' '
