Summary

Can Anthony Yarde do something special to win a world title at the third time of asking or is David Benavidez too mean?

Buncey is joined by Sergio Mora to break down that fight and Saturday's stacked bill in Riyadh. He catches up with Anthony Yarde and two of the unbeaten prospects meeting for a world title on the undercard, Sam Noakes and Abdullah Mason.

We'll have live commentary of all four world title fights, starting at Saturday night at 11pm on 5 Sports Extra and BBC Sounds.

Plus, there's Moses Itauma's reaction to the announcement that Anthony Joshua will face Jake Paul next month.
