But with film specifically, boxing has not only been at the forefront of film innovation historically, but it's also arrived at film's pinnacles, with boxing films winning the most prestigious awards artound. On this episode of Knuckles and Gloves, Patrick Connor and Brin-Jonathan Butler discuss many of boxing's themes and remember much of its history. Follow us on Twitter!

If one were to follow social media chatter in boxing circles, you almost wouldn't know the Charlo brothers were fighting this weekend in separate competitive bouts headlining a very good Pay-Per-View card. You'd only know you're expected to spend $75 on something. Indeed Showtime put together the kind of deep PPV boxing fans have asked for seemingly for decades now, and various moving parts and variables -- the COVID-19 pandemic, a poor economy, social unrest -- lead to questioning the timing of such an endeavor. On this (shorter) episode of Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, Patrick Connor and Brin-Jonathan Butler join forces to discuss the issues behind the PPV and social media and boxing media backlash and/or support.

Technically Donovan "Razor" Ruddock's career lasted from 1982 to 2015 -- more than 30 years. In truth he had a long layoff from 2001 to 2015, but even so, as an active fighter, Ruddock ran the gauntlet of 1980s and 90s heavyweights that took over the division. Michael Dokes, Lennox Lewis, Mike Tyson, Tommy Morrison... Ruddock didn't win them all, but he was there.
