    • Sports

A pair of Friday ngiht world title fights to preview, some fight news including a UK rematch two years in the making and some tremendous nostalgia involving Leon Spinks being like Buster Douglas before Buster Dougla is all part of the newest "Big Fight Weekend Preview Podcast!"

Host T.J. Rives returns with insider Dan Rafael of BigFightWeekend.com to cover it all.

The guys preview the O'Shaquie Foster WBC 130 lb. title defense agaisnt veteran Abraham "Super" Nova in the ESPN/Top Rank main event from New York. Foster has been involved in some wild, close fights and Nova looks to take his belt.

Also, in Mexico on DAZN it's a light flyweight title rematch with Adrien Curiel taking on Sivenathi Nontshinga, Curiel stunned the champ Nontshinga with a one punch KO in the second round last November and now defends in his home country.

Then, there's fight news on the long awaited Josh Taylor vs. Jack Catterall rematch from 2022. Taylor, the former undisputed junior welterweight champ, got a close, controversial decision win and now, Catterall gets a shot at him again, but in a non-title fight. The guys give their thougts.

Next, there's discussion on whether Jermall Charlo will be or won't be the Canelo Alvarez opponent on May 4th? And, if it's not him, then whom?

Then, there's tremendous anniversary nostalgia as it was 46 years ago that Leon Spinks pulled a massive upset over "the Greatest" Muhammad Ali to become the undisputed heavyweight champ. How did Spinks pull off the win? Does it compare to other massive heavyweight title upsets? And, did it only add to Ali's legacy that he won the title back later in 1978.

Also, Dan has his own nostalgia about this week in 2003 and his marriage proposal....that came AFTER he had to see an HBO title fight on TV first!
