Pod on tour - Warrington and Bridges in Leeds

Buncey is in Salford to catch up with the WBO lightweight world champion Rhiannon Dixon. They discuss her path to professional boxing and how she had to give up a career as an pharmacist to pursue her dream. And ahead of Lauren Price’s first shot at winning a world title this weekend, we hear from her opponent Jessica McCaskill and promoter Ben Shalom.

Buncey sits down with the boss of Golden Boy promotions Oscar de la Hoya. Talking before the news of Ryan Garcia’s failed drug test, they reflect on that night in New York, discuss his plans for boxing in Las Vegas and what we can expect from this weekend’s Canelo-Mungia fight. We also catch up with Chris Billam-Smith and Richard Riakporhe who fight for CBS’s WBO world title.

Buncey heads to the Moss Side Boxing Gym in Manchester. He's joined by Joe Gallagher, who’s been part of the gym for nearly forty years and now trains the likes of Tasha Jonas and Lawrence Okie there. They take a stroll down memory lane and exchange stories from the early days when Phil Martin ran the place. Joe also updates us on his current stable of fighters and what the next few months hold.

Barry Jones joins Buncey to pick through the bones of an extraordinary fight in New York at the weekend. They question whether Ryan Garcia pulled the wool over everyone’s eyes with his antics in the build-up to the fight with Devin Haney, which saw him floor his opponent three times on his way to a majority points win. They take a deep dive into the build-up and analyse why Garcia proved to be too good on the night.

Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn sit down with Buncey to talk through their five-versus-five card. The pair tell us why they believe they have the fighters to win the tournament. We also hear from all ten fighters taking part in the event in Saudi Arabia in June.

Barry Jones joins Buncey to reflect on an eventful fight launch in London. Artur Beterbiev and Dmitry Bivol are on the pod to discuss their fight for all the belts in June in Saudi Arabia. The guys cast their eyes over the Queensberry v Matchroom fight card and ask whether there has ever been a better fight trailer than the one produced for the 5v5. And following her win at the weekend, Ellie Scotney joins Buncey to discuss becoming a unified world champion.

Buncey sits down with former world champion Barry McGuigan. Following the release of a new BBC documentary that goes inside the McGuigan gym, Barry delves into what makes a successful stable of fighters, how his son Shane has become a top trainer and what it takes to bring through multiple world champions. All four episodes of Stable: The Boxing Game can be watched on BBC iPlayer.

Buncey is joined by Josh Warrington and Ebanie Bridges as the tour heads to Leeds. The pair discuss the highs and lows of their career, how they are hungry to regain their world titles, and they take questions from the audience.

Buncey takes the pod to Cromer for the third stop on its UK tour. He’s joined on stage by the Walsh brothers - Liam, Ryan and Michael. They take us back to the early days of sparring in their living room, fighting their dad for a few quid and what regrets they have from their respective careers.

Former world champions Barry Jones and Richie Woodhall join Steve Bunce as the 5 Live Boxing awards return. They are tasked with deciding the winners of six categories including “Fight of the year” and “British boxer of the year”.
