Anthony Joshua joins the podcast ahead of his fight with Oleksandr Usyk.

AJ ranks Usyk against his other opponents; another view of the famous Fury spar; and farewell Mike.

Ahead of his heavyweight world title defence against Oleksandr Usyk, Anthony Joshua joins the podcast to discuss how he’s still trying to become a better boxer, not getting the credit he deserves and whether he needs to fight Tyson Fury before the end of his career. Then, an interview with Joshua’s amateur coach Sean Murphy from Finchley ABC, who tells the story of Joshua’s famous spar with Fury at the club in 2010. Mike and Steve discuss the troubling scenes from America where Evander Holyfield’s ‘exhibition’ against former UFC fighter Vitor Belfort ended in the first round, and Mike bids farewell to the podcast.
