Before you listen to this BBC podcast I'd like to introduce myself. My name's

Stevie Middleton and I'm a BBC Commissioner for a load of sport

podcasts. I'm lucky to do that at the BBC because I get to work with leading

journalists, experienced pundits and the biggest

sports stars. Together we bring you untold stories and fascinating insights

straight from the player's mouth. But the best thing about doing this at the BBC is

our unique access to the sporting world.

What that means is that we can bring you podcasts that create a real connection to

dedicated sports fans across the UK.

So if you like this podcast, head over to BBC Sounds where you'll find plenty more.

This is five lines boxing.

So the way we usually do our business here is we do a bonus pod when there's a fight at the weekend,

when it's a big fight, when it's a good fight. Well, there is a big fight and there is a great fight taking place in Las Vegas.

Sol Canano Alvarez continues his remarkable career.

But there's also a press conference to officially announce

something outdoors at Sir Lures Park, June the 15th, Crystal Palace, South London, and

Chris Bill of Smith defending his WBO Cruiserweight title against local fighter Richard

Reacport. It's a rematch. It's got something special about it. Oh, did I forget to mention?

I also speak to Oscar Delahoya. That's why we're doing a bonus pod. I'm Steve Bunth and this is five live boxing.

I love the cruiserweight since Sammy Reeson became the first British Cruiserweight champion on those years ago

and Johnny Nelson seemed to fight for a Cruiserweight world title all over the world.

That seems to be hundreds of years ago.
