We have a rematch that might be the end of one elite career.
Both Beterbiev and Bivol had to dig deep into their reserves of courage and heart to survive.
Have they got enough left to go again?
This Saturday we will find out. -
Boxing such a cruel sport. Due to the nature of the sport it’s very important to get your first step perfect.
Too many times we see boxers get their start in the game completely wrong and they never get that moment back, and they never get the momentum back, which means they never fulfil their potential.
If you are a boxer, be very careful about making that first move because you never get a second chance. -

Derek Chisora is proof that Boxing is really about hard men. Hard durable men last the longest in the world of Boxing and it’s good to see him have this Indian summer to his career.
-
Who is Conor Benn really and does he even know?
Sometimes it is easier not to pretend and I’m trying to be Nigel Benn II, maybe Conor is hurting his career.
April 26th will tell us a lot more. -
Does boxing really need its own Oscars night?
Have they really given the fans all they want? or, is this another chance for more back-slapping?
these sort of events are great for the camera and microphone jockeys and not that great for the fans.
But...when you are a promoter with your own show on the same night, where should you be? -
IF WE CAN DO 300 TICKETS WE'LL DO A LIVE SHOW
I promise, there is really good boxing content in this episode, when you get to it.
It was good to finally get back with the guys and record.
We give our take on the last year in boxing, and in life, picking up on the bigger themes that are shaping boxing as a sport.

There are three things that make a boxer elite:
The ability to control any opponent and take away their strengths
The ability to impose your will on your opponent and
The focus required to do those two consistently for 12 rounds.
On Saturday night, one man did it, and rightly won, and the other just couldn't.
These fights are always about the finest f margins and Usyk had all of those. -
A short discussion on what both Tyson Fury and Oleksandr Usyk have to do to win on Saturday night.
Honest views from a podcast that cares. -
The more I've read and listened to info on the Conor Benn saga the more I think this is a cover up about the failings at UKAD.
Nobody has challenged the validity of the VADA tests and now that the process is over, Conor Benn is unwilling to talk on the subject.
It feels like UKAD need him to be silent, more than he needs to share his side of the story.
There are huge issues here that need clarifying. -
If we didn't have Frank Warren domestic boxing in the UK would be fried.
How did it get so bad?
As fans we either get historic fight cards, or really bad fight cards, with no in-between.
What we saw this weekend was a dark omen for what is to come if we don't start addressing things now. -
Galal Yafai shocked British boxing with a one-sided demolition of Sunny Edwards.
The odd thing about the fight was how easy it was. At that level no boxer should be able to tee off with bagwork combinations.
it was like watching somebody doing padwork on another human body.
Hopefully, this is the springboard to success for Galal Yafai. -
It's a worrying time when you see Eddie Hearn using the tactics he used to laugh at other promoters for using.
But it goes to show how far the pendulum has swung away from Matchroom in the last 3 years.
Also....NOBODY ASKED FOR CHISORA V WALLIN!!!! -

Many will be disappointed with this fight, but I am proud of Mike Tyson.
It takes real heart to wake up at 58 years old, as a millionaire, and find it in you to train for a fight. He may never be what he was, but that warrior spirit never leaves you.
Only casual fans can be disappointed with what they saw. What did they expect a 58 year old man to do?
As for Jake Paul, he cracked the boxing matrix - getting rich with no risk and no CTE.
Netflix got 250m streams of fight that was pantomime, at best.
Everyone is a winner. -
6 1/2 years after Eddie Hearn, proclaimed DAZN was the home of Boxing. Frank Warren has made the zone, the whole of Boxing 6 1/2 years of tools and insults a decade of his integrity being questioned BoxNation being questioned, and now Frank Warren seems to be the senior partner in the Suzanne situation and look this has been for years in the making maybe a bit longer and you have to respect Frank Warren for playing the long game while Eddie Hearn was burning up his his capital looking for short-term returns, but the most exciting thing the thing that put a smile on my face is the realisation that that Matchroom

A decade ago a group of young boxes including Ohara Davies, Anthony Yarde, Craig Richards and a few others became the first bridge between conventional media and social media.
They were the first generation that proved you could demonstrate marketability through social media and while many others had social media before nobody utilised social media in such an effective way.
They were almost the influencers of their day, and you wonder if the opportunity been available a decade ago would these guys are promoted their own shows.
Would they have become KSI of the Jake Paul’s of their era?
As we sit on the verge of watching this generation slowly work their way out of Boxing it might be time to give them their 💐. -
Be there for your people, with love, when they are winning and when they are losing.

When the two best fight to be #1 in their division, you expect it to be close.
So, when it is close, you can’t be surprised at the result.
Beterbiev and Bivol gave their best, and now, we should let them go their separate ways and allow the division to freshen up. -
Beterbiev versus Bivol, is the Hardcore’s dream matchup, but this fight doesn’t seem to have gathered much traction in the mainstream media.
Is this is down to the effect of Anthony Joshua versus Daniel Dubois, and the kind of emotional fatigue that boxing fans will have after such a big event?
It poses a question, are we having too much boxing in a short space of time, and not giving fans the opportunity to appreciate what could be a historic era in Boxing? -
With Anthony Joshua versus Daniel Dubois now complete. We have an opportunity to reflect on what was one of the most spectacular seven days in British boxing history, and the big winner in the last seven days have been Don Charles, with his reputation, greatly enhanced, and many of the things he’s been saying for years finally vindicated.
For many others, it means a reassessment of careers and in the case of Josh Warrington, we get to say goodbye to a British boxing legend. -
Wow! Just wow!
These are the times you live boxing. - Show more
