A very busy weekend of action all over the globe and we've got plenty of takes and insight on the newest "Fight Freaks Unite Recap Podcast!"

Host T.J. Rives returns with insider Dan Rafael of his Fight Freaks Unite Substack to go over it all.

They start with the "PBC on Prime" show in Newcastle, Australia, as Tim Tszyu wiped out Joey Spencer in four rounds in his return after a tough set of losses. What's next- Keith Thurman?

Then, we talk the Queensberry on DAZN show in Manchester, England with heavyweight Filip Hrgovic pounding Joe Joyce for 10 rounds and decision win. Who's Hrgovic gonna fight and should Joyce continue despite reapeated beatings he's taken in the last two years?
 
Next, we move on to the Top Rank on ESPN+ show in Las Vegas with Richard Torrez headlining and wins over Italian Guido Vianello. Frustrating fight for Torrez with all of Vianello's holding, but it's a solid win.

The boys discuss and Dan goes over the Lindolfo Delgado and Abdullah Mason victories on the undercard, too.
