This is one of my favourite chats. Barry who is CEO of Matchroom sport talks about building a £1B sports empire from nothing. His simple approach to business, his very personal tattoos and about the time he lost a fight to his son Eddie.
It was lovely to talk about the rise of Anthony Joshua and his commercial deals outside of the ring.
