Join me as I break down which of the week’s televised fights are most interesting and why.
This week’s boxing action doesn’t feature a lot of big names, but that just means it’s a great week to study boxing at all levels and get to know some up-and-coming fighters you may not have seen yet. There’s a lot of boxing to watch this week!
