Will Dillian Whyte's experience overcome the youthful speed and agility of Moses Itauma, or will the 20-year-old prodigy prove too sharp for the veteran? Just some of the questions Buncey poses to Queensberry's Frank Warren, Eddie Hearn of Matchroom and top trainer Andy Lee. Warren offers the inside track on his rising star, Hearn gives his take from a neutral corner, and Lee analyses where the fight will be won or lost, and also updates us on his fighters, including Joseph Parker, Ben Whittaker, Hamzah Sheeraz and Paddy Donovan.
Finally we get a big time fight card this weekend in Saudi Arabia and we're ready to go over the return of phenom heavyweight Moses Itauma, have some fight news discussion and more on the "Big Fight Weekend Preview Podcast."Host T.J. Rives is back with insider Dan Rafael to go over it all.First, the take a look at Satrurday's Riyadh Season DAZN PPV in Riyadh, Saudi ArabiaItauma has his first "named test" in Dillian Whyte, 10 rounds, heavyweights. Time to see what the youngster can do against a proven vet and will the hype continue after this one? In the co-feature Nick Ball takes on Sam Goodman for Ball's WBA featherweight title. The highly entertaining champ from Liverpool, England will battle the top contender from Australia in this one. Also there's talk of Filip Hrgovic vs. David Adeleye in a heavyweight matchup and American Raymond Ford battles countryman Abraham Nova in a junior lightweight showdown.Then, some newsThe Canelo-Crawford undercard was announced: jjunior middleweight prospects Callum Walsh and Fernando Vargas Jr. will fight the 10-round co-feature and WBC interim super middleweight titleholder Christian Mbilli, a potential 2026 opponent for Alvarez, defends against rising contender Lester Martinez.Also, Paramount+, just off this week's massive seven-year, $7.7 billion deal for all United States broadcast and streaming rights for UFC, is reportedly also the “front-runner” for Zuffa Boxing rights, per Front Office Sports. We discuss the massive money being thrown the UFC's way, while boxing cannot get a fraction of those kind of deals.Next, the domestic violence case against WBA lightweight titleholder Gervonta Davis was dropped on Tuesday, according to the Miami-Dade County Court. The woman declined to prosecute. We discuss and Dan has a theory on Davis' next big battle.Oh, and there's Jason “Boots” Ennis, who recently vacated his unified welterweight title to move up to junior middleweight. But, not for a huge fight, rather, he is set for his debut in perhaps boxing's deepest division in garbage fight vs. unknown Uisma Lima in a WBA title eliminator Oct.11 on DAZN at Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Ennis' hometown. What are we doing here (Part 1)?!And, apparently, there is a real chance that Anthony Joshua will fight Jake Paul next, per Eddie Hearn in various interviews. What are we doing here (part 2)?!It's all part of the Big Fight Weekend Preview Podcast and make sure to follow/subscribe on Apple/Spreaker/Spotify, etc.!!
Benghazi is the battleground for a stacked DAZN card headlined by Albert Ramirez vs. Jerome Pampellone, but that's just the start. This week we dive into shocking news from Japan where two boxers tragically died on the same card, Oscar De La Hoya's big push for Ryan Garcia vs. Teofimo Lopez, and Eddie Hearn hinting at an insane Jake Paul vs. Anthony Joshua fight. Plus: Manny Pacquiao climbs back to #1 in the WBC, Boots Ennis moves up the ranks, Benn vs. Eubank Jr. 2 is official, and Olympic star Jahmal Harvey signs with Jake Paul's team.

The sound of it was originally pretty terrible though, it was a constant battle in the early days of the podcast to get people recording in good spaces.Luckily we kept most of the individual mic channels and the software has come on leaps and bounds recently, so it's now very easy to convert a very roomy mic recording into something that sounds like it was done in a proper radio studio.Steve Davis was one of the very biggest sporting celebrities in the 1980s. He totally dominated the sport of snooker in Tiger Woods-like fashion, winning the world title six times and setting unprecedented levels of excellence in front of enormous television audiences. The 18m who tuned in on BBC2 to watch him lose the 1985 final on the final ball of the final frame, well after midnight, is still a record.But he's also a major music head, DJ and modular synth-playing member of experimental group The Utopia Strong, who has always been a very interesting character. The Utopia Strong releases since we first broadcast this conversation two years ago are... well, strong, especially the BBC Sessions release which was recorded in a live session at the legendary Maida Vale studios.And he's also Eddie Hearn's Godfather.So we talk about all of the above, but perhaps most interestingly the experience of fame at that level and how to cope with it. Having a really top manager helps, we discover.This is well worth a re-listen if you caught it first time round, and if you didn't - well, you're in for a treat.--If you're into what we're doing here on the pod then you can support the show on Patreon!

On today's episode, I tell you why I have a problem with Islam Makhachev basing his future on the outcome of Belal Muhammad vs. Jack Della Maddalena. And for everyone doubting Kamaru Usman ... have you forgotten who Kamaru Usman is?Then, I look ahead to Bo Nickal vs. Reinier de Ridder this weekend at UFC Des Moines, but apparently, Nickal weighed needs to cut a considerable amount of weight this week. I'll also tell you whether I agree with Vegas, who has Nickal as the heavy favorite. Next, UFC analyst Din Thomas thinks Jon Jones may never take the fight with Tom Aspinall, and I can tell you this matchup is definitely losing steam. Also, Eddie Hearn told Ariel Helwani that MMA is struggling, and I disagree.
