THE FULL WAR OF WORDS BETWEEN EDDIE HEARN AND BEN SHALOM

Did BBC TV's return to boxing live up to the hype? Former British middleweight champion Neville Brown joins Buncey to reflect on a dramatic night in Derby, where Jeamie TKV upset Frazer Clarke and Fran Hennessy won every round against Fabiana Bytyqi. We hear from both fighters, plus promoter Ben Shalom.

Eddie Hearn goes off in a fiery interview — taking brutal aim at Ben Shalom, calling him out with the explosive line: “You have no f*** backbone!”**

He chats to Frazer Clarke about the pressure of a hometown fight and checks in with TKV, who's hoping to make a statement. Francesca Hennessy and her dad Mick drop in ahead of her opening the BBC Two show at eight. And promoter Ben Shalom tells us how you can feel the tension between the two heavies starting to bubble.

Ahead of his first promoted fight on the BBC, Boxxer CEO Ben Shalom joins Buncey for an in-depth conversation about the new partnership.

Eddie Hearn is in no mood to hold back!

Will it be repeat or revenge? Buncey speaks to Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn ahead of their November rematch at the Tottenham Hostpsur Stadium. He also hears from their respective promoters, Ben Shalom and Eddie Hearn. Plus, fresh from winning his first world title, Lewis Crocker pops over for a chat.

Ben Shalom has faced a rough start to 2025. But, it looks like life is a bit more stable for him with the announcement of a deal with the BBC. The real question is whether Ben can bring the glamour back to boxing on mainstream TV.

Barry Jones joins Buncey to unpack a dramatic weekend of action, as Fabio Wardley delivered a one-punch knockout to stop Justis Huni in a controversial 10th-round finish in Ipswich, while in Barnsley, Callum Simpson stopped Ivan Zucco in the 10th after being dropped twice. We hear from Wardley and Huni's promoter Eddie Hearn. And Buncey chats to Ben Shalom about Simpson's win and what the future holds for Boxxer as their broadcast deal with Sky has expired. Plus, we pay tribute to legendary trainer James Cook, who passed away at the weekend.

Buncey is joined by Barry Jones as Eubank and Benn face off at the grand arrivals in London. They speak with promoters Eddie Hearn and Ben Shalom and dive into the 35-year history behind this rivalry.
