@Ontheropes12 @openingbellpod @RobTebbutt Weekly listens in addition to the above:
5 Live Boxing with Steve Bunce - he has good rapport with the guests
Talkboxing - Especially like when Duke Mckenzie is the guest
Fight Disciples - Only the boxing shows
Fight Your Corner - Eddie Hearn & Shane Fury episodes were fun

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

Fight build-up has changed over the last few years.

We get face-offs, media days and the odd bit of BTS access, I’d love more shoulder programming that actually tells a story.

So much content is made for social & instead of 24/7, we’ve got Fabio Wardley cutting vegetables😭

[On the Ropes @Ontheropes12]

🥊Was at a loose end earlier and ended up watching the Mayweather-Hatton 24/7 series, wonder if we’ll ever get anything similar again? #Boxing

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@Ontheropes12 @openingbellpod Love the Opening Bell & Sportsman Boxing. Interested to see OB without Alex Steedman but excited for Mike Costello this week. I've asked if Sportsman Boxing show will be available as a podcast and I think @RobTebbutt said it will be on the next edition. Barry makes me laugh!
1/2

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@Ontheropes12 Totally. What are your go to podcasts?

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

Stormzy to do the ringwalk again on December 11th? 11 years later 🤯👀

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

The instagram version of this post has Shut Up as the music and it reminded by how good AJ’s ringwalk was against Dillian Whyte 😀

[Eddie Hearn @EddieHearn]

Chapter 35. Chat shit get banged. Dec 11 🇬🇧

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@Ontheropes12 I agree, I really wish we had more storytelling in the fight build up. I often find I’ll go to individual journalists / podcasts now to help build the fight

[Jaina @Jainadave_]

Hate to admit it, but the "go to the gym in the morning & enjoy the rest of your day" people were right.

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

This is Ben’s 4th fight with Matchroom and all 3 so far have been early stoppages.

If he comes though the fight on Saturday, which he should, it’s time to see him in with a domestic name like Richards, Arthur, Yarde or even the winner of Buatsi v Hutchinson on 7th November.

BENZO FIGHT WEEK ⭐ @BenGWhittaker

#WhittakerWallace live on DAZN this Saturday from @UtilitaArenaBHM 🔥

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@anfi_ttv It’s genuinely life changing. Bed for 9:30pm and up at 5:30am is the way!

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

After the merry-go-round of the last few days, it looks like Wednesday’s press conference will happen after all.

We’re only one week into the 11-week build-up. I wonder what else is in store 😭 🤣#FuryJoshua

Joshua jets in to London from Dubai camp as Fury finally enters drug testing https://t.co/uKY0ZFleby

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@ZeeZeeHD I’ve got CBS and Buatsi winning but I’m not sure how much the Callum Smith fight took out of Buatsi and Clarke did beat CBS in the amateurs twice.

What about you?

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

Looking forward to CBS v Clarke, just wish it wasn’t on the same night as Buatsi v Hutchinson 2.

I know they’re on different broadcasters so it can’t always be helped, but it’s hard to properly watch both cards at once.

✅ CONFIRMED: Chris Billam-Smith will fight Chev Clarke in the main event of Zuffa Boxing 12 in London Nov. 7 live on Paramount+ & Sky Sports.

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@AmitChampaneri1 They are really awful. I also don’t need to know if someone’s a possible signing via an ai poster. A tweet with text will do

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

Please can we stop with the horrible AI posters announcing possible promoter signings in boxing. They’re terrible 😭😭

I really don’t need to know someone is potentially signing with Zuffa via AI slop.

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@FightPost1 Also a lot of them spread fake news and you can spot them a mile off 😭

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

The contractual situation for this fight has been so messy from the beginning, with both fighters having contradictory information on locations, promoters etc. #FuryJoshua

[Sun Sport @SunSport]

EXCLUSIVE: Anthony Joshua ready to boycott Tyson Fury press conference if Gypsy King has not started drug testing | @WallyDownes_Jr https://t.co/roKHwcRrBk

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

I do think Fury v Joshua will go ahead on December 11th, there’s too much money on the line.

Only in boxing would a fight be officially announced for us to be having this conversation less than a week later 🤪

[Track Radio @wearetrackradio]

🚨 Could AJ vs. Tyson Fury be CANCELLED?! 🥊

Anthony Joshua’s fight with Tyson Fury might be off before the ink is dry on the contracts, and it’s got very little to do with the fighters themselves! 👀

@CDaly15 @Tyson_Fury @anthonyjoshua

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@shaunrbrown I don’t know how Zuffa and Dana are going to fare in British boxing over a longer term.

They said at the beginning judge them after a year, will be intrigued when that time comes around..

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

It’s beyond me why he can’t answer questions calmly. The questions are reasonable too

[Shaun Brown @shaunrbrown]

Watched bits of Dana White at boxing press conferences this year. It's telling how often he resorts to bad language to get out of a question and how aggressive he gets. He also seems to have no love for the sport. He's better off with the Octagon mob. Turki can join him.

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

@PaulBrowneMMA Awesome, I’ll subscribe and look out for your content!

[Paige Waller @paigecwaller]

Always find myself looking for more boxing content on a Sunday.

There’s usually plenty after the big fights, but I’d love more regular Sunday content longer-form reactions to your standard fight nights or evergreen stuff.

Any recommendations?
