Summary
Brian Campbell and Rafe Bartholomew welcome a bevy of top fighters, boxing trainers, broadcasters and journalists during Canelo Alvarez-Gennady Golovkin II weekend in Las Vegas. Bob Arum of Top Rank shares why his company chose not to re-sign Manny Pacquiao and why he doesn’t have any time for talk of a rematch with Floyd Mayweather. The Hall of Fame promoter also talks Terence Crawford-Errol Spence Jr., marijuana use, the future of boxing broadcasting and his infamous orgy in the Philippines with Muhammad Ali. In addition, boxers Abner Mares and Yuriorkis Gamboa talk about what’s next for them, trainer Abel Sanchez shares insight on life with GGG outside the ring, and videographers Radio Rahim and Marcos Villegas of FightHubTV share wild interviews with the likes of Mayweather, Tyson Fury and Angel Garcia. Plus, journalists Chris Mannix, Brett Okamoto, Kieran Mulvaney and Eric Raskin chat about the biggest fights this fall, which ringside experience hit them in the feel spot and whether boxing fans will support Conor McGregor in his UFC comeback.
