IT’S the start of fight week in Mexico where John Ryder embarks on the mother of all challenges when he attempts to unseat super-middleweight king, Canelo Alvarez.

It looks like mission impossible for the Brit but we examine what he must do to win, and wonder if such a scenario is in fact, well, possible.

We also look ahead to Joshua Buatsi’s return, discuss the latest developments surrounding Conor Benn and in This Week, venture back to 2004 and Oscar De La Hoya’s triumphant return against Ricardo Mayorga.

Please - and you know the drill - rate, review and follow. If you haven’t already of course.
