    Peter Fury on Ryan Garcia's Win over Conor Benn, AJ vs Tyson Fury & Rico Verhoeven

    Peter Fury joins Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons on Fight Your Corner for a must-watch episode on Conor Benn's loss to Ryan Garcia, Rico Verhoeven, Moses Itauma and the long-awaited clash between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury. Tony and Peter give their honest verdict on Garcia's two-round demolition of Conor Benn: why it proved Benn had skipped too many levels, and why going to 160 or 168 next would be madness for the British fighter. Peter also opens up on his pride at Rico Verhoeven's performance in his defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, whether he wants him to face Filip Hrgovic next and why anyone stepping into the ring with Verhoeven needs to be ready. He also gives his take on Moses Itauma's defeat to Hrgovic, pad men vs real trainers and what might have happened if Mike Tyson had faced George Foreman in 1990. Plus, the lads pay tribute to the late Ricky Hatton one year after his death and Peter provides an update on Hughie Fury and the young "phenomenon" he's working with in his gym. ───────────────────────────── 🏆 LINKS Fight Your Corner is brought to you by Midnite, the betting app that's built different: https://www.midnite.com/ 18+, please gamble responsibly. ───────────────────────────── 📑CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome to Fight Your Corner 01:12 Hello Peter Fury 02:05 Why Peter Fury WASN’T Angry About Usyk Win 04:00 Conor Benn vs Ryan Garcia: Was Benn out of his depth? 10:10 Conor Benn can’t go to 160 or 168: so what next? 19:43 Ryan Garcia: Is he REALLY an elite fighter? 24:30 Peter Fury: Pad men are absolute b******t 28:08 Peter Fury: Pride in Rico Verhoeven vs Usyk and Hrgovic Next? 35:15 Moses Itauma: Fight IQ, gassing & Ben Davison debate 43:57 Call Them Out: What MOST annoys Peter about boxing? 46:40 AJ vs Tyson Fury: Cardiff Fight + Tyson's Prime 52:20 “AJ’s Best Ever Chance to Beat Tyson Fury” 56:10 Midnite Ultimate Prediction: Mike Tyson vs George Foreman 59:40 Remembering Ricky Hatton 1:04:53 Hughie Fury Update + The “Phenomenon” Kraus ───────────────────────────── 📲 FOLLOW FIGHT YOUR CORNER YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Fightyourcorner?sub_confirmation=1 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3Pssuxz511vDGxEdrEF1a5?si=049d006eac544200 IG: https://www.instagram.com/fightyourcornerpod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fightyourcornerpod Linktree: https://linktr.ee/fightyourcorner Learn more about your ad choices.

    Kalle Sauerland and Tony Bellew on Benn vs Garcia & Why Misfits is Boxing's GUILTY PLEASURE

    Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons are joined by Promoter and Misfits Boxing co-president Kalle Sauerland to break down the fight between Conor Benn and Ryan Garcia, to discuss what really happened when Benn's failed drugs test delayed a fight with Chris Eubank Jr and whether Kalle would really match John Fury and Carl Froch. Tony explains why Garcia could be in a world of trouble against Benn, while Kalle casts doubts about Conor's reputation as a knockout artist. Kalle gives his take on the fallout after Conor Benn's failed drugs test scotched the original planned fight with Chris Eubank Jr and reveals just how much money his company lost when it was cancelled. Tony and Kalle argue over the merits of Misfits Boxing: how safe is it for the fighters? Why it's set to make over £100 million and would Kalle pit John Fury against Carl Froch? Kalle also calls out the lack of accountability for referees and judges in boxing, discusses his fallout with Ben Shalom and recalls the toughest conversation he ever had with a fighter. ───────────────────────────── 🏆 LINKS Fight Your Corner is brought to you by Midnite, the betting app that's built different: https://www.midnite.com/ 18+, please gamble responsibly. ───────────────────────────── 📑CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome to Fight Your Corner

    Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons are joined by boxing writer and broadcaster Steve Bunce for a huge episode of Fight Your Corner. Buncey brings his trademark opinions, stories and boxing knowledge as the trio debate one of the biggest fights of the year: Moses Itauma vs Filip Hrgović. Is Itauma ready for the biggest test of his career? Is the fight coming too soon? And can Hrgović cause a huge upset? Tony and Buncey go head-to-head over Itauma's chances, and discuss what Itauma needs to learn from a long fight. They also debate whether today's fighters are really fitter than the greats of previous generations, and Tony is dismissive of the impact of modern sports science on boxing.
