LAS VEGAS -- UFC lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez had barely put on his new belt when he took a swing at Conor McGregor. Cheap Shoes Fake .Shortly after Alvarez won the 155-pound title with a dramatic first-round stoppage of?Rafael dos Anjos?on Thursday night, he?called out the popular Irish fighter and questioned his mixed martial arts abilities.Asked whether he would like to fight McGregor in the future, Alvarez praised his recent opponents, including Dos Anjos and former champion Anthony Pettis.I would ask [UFC president] Dana White, Please give me an easier fight, like Conor McGregor, Alvarez said. I deserve that. Ive been fighting the best guys, so I would like a gimme fight. So, Conor, Id more than welcome that.Alvarez later expounded on his opinions about McGregor, whose brash public persona and dramatic knockouts turned him into one of UFCs biggest stars in a remarkably short time. Alvarez shares many fighters belief that McGregors promotional skills far outstrip his fighting abilities, outside of his punching power against other 145-pounders.Look, theres a lot of guys in the UFC who are good at one thing, and they get matched up stylistically well, Alvarez said. They make their way to the top without ever going against the true best guys in the division. They sneak their way around them, and they live off perception, not what really is. [McGregor] is one of them. I think he can get found out. If he was ever to fight Rafael Dos Anjos or to fight myself, hed get found out very quickly.McGregor won the featherweight belt in December with an opening-minute knockout of longtime champion Jose Aldo, his fifth straight stoppage victory against increasingly impressive opposition. McGregor then lost a welterweight bout against Nate Diaz in March after Dos Anjos dropped out of their scheduled lightweight showdown with a foot injury.McGregors rematch with Diaz is the main event of UFC 202 in Las Vegas on Aug. 20.Alvarezs trash talk is infused with business savvy. McGregors recent opponents have received growing paychecks due largely to the Irish stars pay-per-view drawing power. Fake Jordan Shoes .

BOSTON -- The?Red Sox?are hoping to use their final series before the All-Star break to gain some ground on AL?East-leading Baltimore.Some of their newest additions helped keep that goal intact in a series-opening win over the struggling Tampa Bay Rays.David Ortiz hit his 21st home run of the season, and recent call-up Bryce Brentz had two hits and broke a tie with an RBI single in the sixth to help the Red Sox beat the Rays 6-5 on Friday night.Aaron Hill, who was acquired in a trade with the Brewers Thursday, had two RBI hits in his Red Sox debut.The win was Bostons fourth in five games.Brentzs RBI came after he entered the game in the fourth inning for an injured Brock Holt. Holt left with a left ankle sprain after getting his leg caught underneath him on a slide while stealing second.Honestly, I was hoping he was OK. After that, its time to go to work, said Brentz, who was recalled from Triple-A Pawtucket on June 24 for his first major league stint since debuting in 2014. I just always try to come to the field every day ready. Unfortunately Brock had an incident, so hopefully he gets better. Luckily I was able to do something to help the team out.The Red Sox, who have had their share of injuries the past two months, left even more scuffed up.He was able to walk off the field under his own power, but did have a slight limp. X-rays were negative and he will be re-evaluated on Saturday. Holt just returned to action July 1 after missing 37 games with a concussion.Hanley Ramirez also limped his way through an eighth inning at-bat after fouling a ball off his left leg. He left the game with a left shin bruise and will get an MRI on Friday.Hill said the hits helped welcome him to Boston.It definitely made me forget that I got up at 4 a.m., thats for sure, he said. The electricity in this place is always solid. You always wonder on visiting side what its like over here and being able to get a taste of it is pretty neat.Robbie Ross, Jr. (1-1) got the victory for Boston. Koji Ueh
