TURKI TELLS ‘EM
In a week when Ryan Garner scored a glorious victory in a stadium,
Moses Itauma signed for his biggest test, and Boots Ennis is preparing for
Xander Zayas, the biggest story is the one we know the least about: Anthony
Joshua v Tyson Fury.
After much squabbling between
various promoters about who is in control, when it will take place, and where
it will be staged, Turki Alalshikh announced to the world that he is the one
calling the shots. But what does the sport look like without Alalshikh in it; a
very real possibility considering the recent reports about his health.
Meanwhile, everyone’s ‘next
heavyweight champion’ Itauma faced off with Filip Hrgovic to find someone
completely unwilling to read the script. Will Hrgovic toe the line when they
meet on August 29?
Alex and Matt reflect on
Garner’s thrilling triumph inside Southampton’s St Mary’s Stadium, we look
ahead to Ennis-Zayas, but arguably save the best for last…
This Week is anchored in 1999
and a time when Johnny Tapia was taken by the biggest of surprises by Paulie
Ayala. As ever with Tapia fights, this one has a heck of a backstory.
The Opening Bell: Unbiased,
unflinching, unmissable.
