(0:00) - Intro  (1:55) - Jaron Ennis defeats Xander Zayas  (28:10) - What's next for Boots?  (35:00) - Ben Whittaker def. Richie Rivera  (43:00) - News and notes

Oleksandr Usyk last week vacated three heavyweight titles to focus on a “last dance”. Who will be Usyk's final dance partner? Where does his departure leave the rest of the division? And what does this decision mean for his legacy?    Jaron ‘Boots” Ennis, meanwhile, at last found a befitting dance partner in Xander Zayas last weekend as the pair unleashed some sumptuous moves in Brooklyn. Ennis wasn't perfect but reminded the boxing world exactly why he's been held in high regard for such a long time. But then, with the fight being stuck behind a paywall, it's easy to wonder if this was a missed opportunity to draw new fans to the sport. Ben Whittaker dazzled again on the undercard only days after one of British boxing's most reliable showmen, Chris Eubank Jr, revealed his plans to keep fighting “until the wheels fall off” at the age of 36. We review Lewis Crocker's tight loss to Liam Paro before heading back to the 1990s and not one but two “Sugar” Shane Mosley fights. Thanks to some classic Christie chaos we look at his victory over Wilfrido Ruiz in 1998 AND his beatdown of Wilfredo Rivera the following year. Thanks for listening to The Opening Bell, one and all.

Ben Whittaker unleashed his latest dazzling display at the weekend with another early blowout. But is the newfound fire enough to take him to the top? And if it is, which opponents does he need to get there? The fall of Daniel Kinahan, who last week was arrested in Dubai, will leave many wondering if those who were happy to do business with him a few years ago remain so today. There is breaking news of Lawrence Okolie failing a test. As the show records, we find out that Okolie is on the front foot when it comes to clearing his name. And in This Week, we fire up the burners back to 1992 for some Frank Bruno mania and vintage Des Lynam.

We also hear from Richie Woodhall, who coached him in the build-up to the Olympics, as well as insights from his trainer Andy Lee and his promoter Eddie Hearn.

In this show, we are talking about last night's fight card. We start with a hot-button topic of the three major fighters who have been champions and retained their position atop of the sport, which journey have you enjoyed the most: David Benavidez, Devin Haney or Jesse "Bam" RodriguezWe will also break down Benavidez win over Anthony Yarde, Haney defeating Brian Norman Jr, and "Bam" defeating Fernando Martinez. Also, we talk about what might be the "Fight of the Year" as Abdullah Mason wins the WBO lightweight title over Sam Noakes in a modern classic, that might have been too good to be a vacant title fight. Also, we talk about Mizuki Hiruta, who made her sixth title defense of her WBO junior bantamweight women's title, and Francisco Veron, who defeated Roiman Villa on ProBox TV. This week, we have two marquee cards. On Saturday, Lukie will be on-site in Fresno for the ProBox TV. He gives a detailed explanation of why you should watch Justin Pauldo, Charlie Sheehy, Karlos Balderas, and many others involved. In the U.K., on Saturday, light heavyweight Ben Whittaker makes his Matchroom debut.
