Boxing and technology had been inseparable for more than a century when video games made their appearance, and after they did it stayed the same.

Over the last few decades, dozens of boxing video games have been released. Some have been excellent and stood the test of time, others... not as much.

On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historians Patrick Connor and Aris Pina welcome BoxRec guru Grey Johnson back to the show to discuss many of the most memorable boxing video games of all time.

The light heavyweight division is one of the oldest of the "original" divisions, and Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol is but an extension of the division's history. It's a necessary fight that nearly everyone wanted.

In the early 2000s, both Manny Pacquiao and Edwin Valero were new and hard-hitting lower weight sensations. Their career trajectories were clearly on different paths, but for a few years, Pacquiao-Valero was a mythical matchup most fans would have been happy to get. And we really weren't that far from getting it.

On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor and author/filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler discuss the careers of Pacquiao, Valero and their imaginary fight.
