Tue, 18 Jun 2024 - 444 - Joshua obliterates Ngannou; Jake Paul v Mike Tyson
AFTER Anthony Joshua blasted out a woefully overmatched Francis Ngannou in two rounds, the big question is: Will that put an end to crossover boxing?Whether it does or not, it seems we’ve still got to endure Mike Tyson trying to negotiate a 31-year disadvantage against Jake Paul. In comparison to all of that, Canelo Alvarez-Jaime Munguia looks like the fight of the century.In This Week, we uncover a genuinely competitive fight as we go back to 1989 and Evander Holyfield vs Micheal Dokes.
Wed, 13 Mar 2024 - 443 - Preview special! Joshua-Ngannou, Zhang-Parker, Vargas-Ball
THIS weekend Anthony Joshua - arguably the most accomplished heavyweight of his era - takes on one-fight novice Francis Ngannou. A mismatch on paper but, according to plenty of seasoned observers, it’s a fight loaded with jeopardy for AJ.The undercard in Saudi Arabia is a cracker, featuring Zhilei Zhang-Joseph Parker, Rey Vargas-Nick Ball and more. As well as examining that card in detail, we look back on the heroics of Ray Ford and the concerning behaviour of Ryan Garcia.In another week an i...
Wed, 06 Mar 2024 - 442 - The astonishing survival of Paul Spadafora
IN a week dominated by endless speculation about who Canelo Alvarez will fight next, we talk to a world champion with a real story to tell. Paul Spadafora started life being forced to deal with child abuse, alcohol abuse, drug addiction and death in the family. He survived being shot as a teenager and went on to become one of the best boxers of his era. But success would only lead to even more trouble.We also hear about his time as world champion, toying with Floyd Mayweather in sparring...

Wed, 21 Feb 2024 - 440 - Is Hamza Sheeraz heading for superstardom?
IN the latest Opening Bell, both Alex Steedman and Matt Christie find it hard not to be impressed by Hamza Sheeraz's stunning blitzing of Liam Williams last weekend. However, there are notes of caution about getting too carried away. The importance of the British title is up for discussion, so too that moral dilemma surrounding the Saudi Arabia takeover.In This Week, we go back to 1970 and a bout for the essentially vacant world heavyweight title between a peak 'Smokin' Joe Frazier and J...
Thu, 15 Feb 2024 - 439 - Fury-Usyk: The most recent cut is the deepest

Back here in the present day, Azeez and Buatsi are gearing up for a world title eliminator with al...
Wed, 31 Jan 2024 - 437 - Was Jonas-Mayer really that controversial?
FOR some, the Natasha Jonas-Mikaela Mayer was a ‘robbery’. For others, it was fair enough. This week we wonder if controversy is a consequence of the current scoring system, or merely a symptom of the social media age.We also look ahead to John Ryder taking on Jaime Munguia this weekend, as well as the bill in Belfast.This Week goes back to 1976 and a slugfest of the ages: George Foreman vs Ron Lyle.
Wed, 24 Jan 2024 - 436 - Beastly Beterbiev!

We look ahead to the Natasha Jonas-Mikaela Mayer bill in Liverpool, cast an eye over the WBC’s latest ruling on failed tests, and reflect on the burgeoning friendship between Frank and Eddie.In This Week, we head back to 1973 and George Foreman wrecking the heavyweig...
Wed, 17 Jan 2024 - 435 - Joshua v Ngannou; Beterbiev v Smith; Tyson v Botha
WHAT a start to the year. Anthony Joshua and Francis Ngannou are readying for a scrap, Callum Smith is coming off a 16-month layoff to challenge Artur Beterbiev and Tony Weeks is the centre of attention.The heavyweight landscape has been fuel-injected by Saudi riches but what to make of Joshua taking on a fighter with a record that reads 0-1? Without question, Beterbiev’s 19-0 (19) stats are significantly more impressive. But is Smith catching him at the right time?Meanwhile, there was a dist...

Mon, 01 Jan 2024 - 433 - Reborn! Joshua, Parker and Dubois win big in Saudi
ON a dramatic night in Saudi Arabia, Anthony Joshua looked terrific while stopping Otto Wallin, Joseph Parker outhustled a listless Deontay Wilder and Daniel Dubois thumped Jarrell Miller into submission.Joshua’s partnership with Ben Davison got off to a flying start but the matchup with Wilder - who barely landed a single blow - could now be gone forever. We closely examine the performance of Dubois, too.There was another upset, crafted by Agit Kabayel alongside more predictable wins for Dmi...

Thu, 07 Dec 2023 - 428 - Will Chris Eubank Jr fight Conor Benn?
THE hero of the last week was unquestionably Jordan Gill, thanks to both his performance against Michael Conlan and his incredible post-fight address. But one of the biggest stories of the week, yet again, was the latest chapter of the Chris Eubank and Conor Benn, will-they-won’t-they saga.Ryan Garcia was another in the news, for his actions before and during his comeback bout with Oscar Duarte.

Thu, 30 Nov 2023 - 426 - What do we want? Canelo-Benavidez!
David Benavidez turned in a career best performance last weekend, forcing Demetrius Andrade to retire. It left many fans calling for only one rival for Benavidez next, and that’s Canelo Alvarez.Katie Taylor was in majestic form too as she gained revenge over Chantelle Cameron but should that first round ‘knockdown’ have been called?There’s a rather indifferent reaction to news that Conor Benn and Chris Eubank Jr are planning to fight on February 3, whereas a busy weekend ahead is previewed.An...

Thu, 23 Nov 2023 - 423 - Does Tyson Fury need a different schtick to beat Usyk with?
TYSON FURY hurled his customary insults at Oleksandr Usyk when their world heavyweight title showdown was confirmed last week. This time, alas, they had no effect whatsoever.Has the Fury schtick finally outstayed its welcome?

FOLLOWING a weekend when Savannah Marshall and Natasha Jonas added new belts to their collections, and Jared Anderson overcame a test of sorts to move forward, we take a journey back in time.Alongside the usual action analysis (like Dalton Smith’s return to explosive form) and previews, we attempt to imagine what life was like in 1919 when Jack Dempsey ravaged Jess Willard in a contest that’s barely recognisable in modern day boxing.We also discuss the current heavyweight scene, examine the l...

LAST night, Anthony Joshua got back to winning ways when he outpointed the plucky Jermaine Franklin over 12 rounds.Joshua won almost all of those 12 rounds yet the criticism has been fierce.
