Summary

This week Spencer sadly couldn't be on the podcast but stepping into co-host the show is our old friend Kugan Cassius. Kugan was an early pioneer of changing the media landscape of boxing and how the fighters & promoters of the sport we love communicated to the fans. We chatted to Kugan to see how running IFL TV has been during lockdown, the first fights back from Top Rank in the States, Matchroom Fight Camp and much much more!
