It's a World Heavyweight Title showdown in New York and we are ready to preview it and more on Big Fight Weekend! Host T.J. Rives is joined by special guests to get you ready for several prominent fighters being in action this weekend.
First, International Boxing Hall of Fame commentator Al Bernstein rejoins the show. Al will be on the call of Deontay Wilder vs. Dominic Breazeale for Wilder's WBC Belt Saturday night on Showtime. Does Wilder need to be spectacular? What must Breazeale do for a possible upset? Al gives us his insight.
Next, David Payne, a boxing scribe/analyst from the U.K. is back on the show to talk Wilder-Breazeale, but also two fight cards in Britain Saturday. Super Middleweight Billy Joe Saunders is in action just outside of London and a double header of lighter weight championship fights as part of the "World Boxing Super Series" will take place in Scotland. David has the details and the implications for the winners.
Finally, Marquis Johns of BigFightweekend.com is back on to recap last week's thrilling Hurd-Williams Jr. Middleweight Title bout won by Williams on a 12 round decision upset. Was it the "fight of the year," so far? Marquis talks Wilder-Breazeale and the guys also remember the the late "HBO Boxing Judge," Harold Lederman and his impact on boxing on TV, too.
