Summary
Boxxer CEO Ben Shalom joins Buncey to look back on a busy night of boxing at Wembley. They hear from Adam Azim, who won the IBO super lightweight belt by stopping former world champion Sergey Lipinets in round nine. His trainer, Shane McGuigan, is also on the pod. Plus, we hear from Callum Simpson following his win, as well as cruiserweight prospect Lucas Roehrig and his trainer George Groves. And, ahead of his 49th and potentially last fight this weekend, Derek Chisora sits down with Buncey for a catch-up.
