Pound For Pound With Jake Wood And Spencer Oliver

On this week’s show we have the woman who has had a wild ride in boxing so far. From representing her country in the 2012 London Olympics, to being on the verge of greatness of being the undisputed lightweight world champion. Natasha Jonas is currently preparing for the biggest fight of her life against world champion Katie Taylor in a rematch of their fight from the 2012 Olympics. Natasha spoke to us on how her preparations have been going ahead of the Taylor fight and how being an underdog in such a huge fight will play into her hands.Also, the guys looked back at an incredible night of boxing from last week as Dillian Whyte avenged his loss against Povetkin in Gibraltar and also look ahead to this weekends huge fight between Carl Frampton and Jamel Herring. This really could be THE BEST ONE YET.

There's no fight week like a heavyweight PPV fight week!Joining us from sunny Gibraltar is friend of the show and man in the know, Mr. Darren Barker.

"Marvellous” Marvin Hagler Tribute.On this week’s show we pay respects to Marvin Hagler, one of the best boxers to ever lace up a pair of gloves. To do this, we have lined up two great guests. First is Ross Minter, former boxer and son of Alan Minter who put his WBA, WBC and The Ring world titles on the line to face Hagler at Wembley Arena in 1980. the fight went on to be remembered for both what happened in & out of the ring and was the only time Hagler fought in the UK. Ours second guest is Tony Sibson who fought Marvin Hagler in Massachusetts in 1983 for the WBA, WBC & The Ring titles. these two guests will have tales about the great man like no other and it really could be THE BEST ONE YET!

This week's show is a fascinating one. Whilst we love interviewing the stars of the boxing world and entertainment, we really enjoy talking to the real stars behind the scenes.
