It is rare in boxing that we get a PPV event where the fight has real meaning. Spence-Porter was that fight and it didn't disappoint. Fights like this are what will grow boxing as a sport and silence the MMA crowd.

Maybe it is time that Kell Brook gets his respect for handling Porter with the most ease/

Today we look at how lucrative boxing is.

Instagram can be deceiving. It will have you think that boxing is a money tree from which, everyone gets rich.

The truth is a lot more painful. It is a sport where the few, and often the same few, make the majority of money.

If you understand how the money works in boxing, you understand why people behave the way they do.

This is a quick round-up of a slow news week in boxing.

It's the week where we saw the Dark Destroyer announce a return, Eddie Hearn host a public workout that only people with microphones attended and somebody found Kell Brook...somewhere.

Hope you enjoy and please stay in touch:

We go back to 2008 and look at the GB squad and ask, why did some amateurs adapt to the pros better.

2008 was easily the most talented generation since 1976, bit for various reasons, we never got a hall of fame boxer out of that group.

Why do some people crack the pros and others don't?

We answer that today.

Please get in touch and let us know what you think.

So, is Wallin better than we thought or is Fury who the haters thought?

Maybe, we didn't get an answer, but we will definitely get answers from their next fights.

It's exactly why we love boxing.

We know boxing is a loss making business, but it also has the stingiest fans going. So, where are all these billions coming from.

This pod aims at explaining why the corporate sugar daddies are flocking to boxing as it is the last high-value slave market going. Obviously, that is a metaphor and not literal.

Boxers are workers who think they're bosses. The best boxers act like bosses and think like owners.

The economics of boxing are so simple, draw money and get paid. But, so many get it wrong because they have the wrong people around them.

Tevin bought into Uncle Eddie's Hype. Devin bought into Uncle Eddie's hype. Now both of them have nothing left, but each other and no receipt. So, what is next???

Today saw Dereck have a bit of a rant at the lack of respect he feels he receives.

Luckily Joseph Parker wasn't there to face the fury.

In typical Hearn style, where there's muck, there brass, so he was in full spin mode today.

But, we have to ask, has the WBSS died a bit of a death?
