BBC One - Stable: The Boxing Game, Series 1, Episode 2

As grudge matches and tense fights ensue, we delve deep into the murky world of boxing.

We learn about the McGuigans' past and how they ended up at the centre of a huge boxing scandal. Meanwhile, the hurt game never stops with grudge matches and nail-biting contests. 


Shane McGuigan and the team prepare for a busy few weeks, with back-to-back fight nights scheduled. First up are Robbie Davies Jr and Ellie Scotney, who are best friends but have never boxed on the same card. This is a must-win for both of them, but especially for Robbie, who is a veteran of the sport and only has a few contests left in the tank. 

Next up is Chris Billam-Smith, who is in a grudge rematch against a fighter that has history with Shane. Amidst the fireworks of fight camps, we learn about the fallouts with boxers that the McGuigans have had in the past and how they got caught up in the biggest boxing scandal in recent history. Barry McGuigan pulled no punches when he took a stand against an alleged cartel-owned company, which seemingly has its tentacles in every aspect of the sport.
