Executive director of the International Boxing Hall of Fame, Ed Brophy was a lifelong boxing fan who has created a utopia for boxers and fans alike.

He's done it all in the sleepy upstate town of Canastota in New York and after opening with just a small museum in 1989, he's built it in to one of the sport's bucket list destinations.

Here, he talks about his journey building the Hall, its expansion, the controversies he faces, the selection process and much more.
