Deontay Wilder Career Discussion

Deontay Wilder, aka "The Bronze Bomber," is almost certainly at the end of his career. At the very least, he appears to be approaching the end very quickly. There can be no question that he often delivered entertainment and, in terms of his career, he over-performed.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor teams up with author and filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler to discuss Wilder's career and legacy.

"Gallo" Estrada vs "Bam" Rodríguez Preview & Super Flyweight Discussion

On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor and fellow historian/Compubox operator Aris Pina team up to preview Estrada vs Rodríguez, plus discuss some of the history of the super flyweight/junior bantamweight division.

Boxing History - Memorable Knuckleheads

Boxing has it all: great characters, tragedy, triumph, drama. But the sport is also packed full of knuckleheads. You know them. The fighters who couldn't keep from opening their mouths, couldn't stay out of trouble and so forth.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, we focused on the recent International Boxing Hall of Fame induction weekend and recent knuckleheads, which inspired more history-based knucklehead talk.

Oleksandr Usyk vs Tyson Fury Recap
