We have exclusive features with WBO welterweight champion Timothy Bradley and Stoke Newington light-middleweight Erick Ochieng.
All of the past weekend’s action is covered, including Richard Abril-Sharif Bogere in Las Vegas, Billy Dib-Evgeny Gradovich in Mashantucket, Chris van Heerden-Matthew Hatton in Sandton, South Africa and Martin Concepcion-Ryan Clark in North Hykeham.
Unbeaten welterweight Keith Thurman faces the 60-second interview ahead of his clash with Jan Zaveck and former British super-middleweight titlist Cornelius Carr talks about his life after the bell. Bob Mee discusses the rumours surrounding Sam Soliman’s drug test prior to the Felix Sturm contest and we select the top five strawweights in the world.
