Summary

WBO Cruiserweight Champion Chris Billam-Smith is on the pod. Joe asks him if he wears his WBO belt around the house. David shows off his boxing gloves and puts them on the wrong hand. Chris tells them about his training programme, feeing nervous before sparring, his journey to becoming a world champ and being in the changing room pre-fight. They find out how Chris got his moniker 'The Gentleman', then discuss his choice of shorts and wonder who would win in a fight between David and Chris.
