Bivol v Beterbiev: Ben Shalom

Fifty years after the Rumble in the Jungle, Buncey sits down with journalist Colin Hart for an eyewitness account of the iconic event.

He shares his memories of that unforgettable night and explains why it continues to be one of the greatest spectacles in sports history.

Barry Jones is with Buncey as they reflect on a dramatic night at the new Co-op Live. They hear from Jack Catterall after he beat Regis Prograis on points and ask what next for the man from Chorley. Promoter Eddie Hearn is also on the pod, as is Reece Bellotti, who had his fight against Michael Gomez called off just a couple of hours before they were supposed to fight.

Buncey is at a new arena in Manchester for yet another press conference. This time, it's Jack Catterall vs. Regis Prograis, who will battle on Saturday at the venue.
