Whether you knew him as "The Duke" or "Hey, yo, Tommy Gunn!" you knew who Tommy Morrison was if you paid attention to boxing in the 1980s or 90s.
Morrison was an intriguing and ultimately tragic figure in boxing, and perhaps farther back into his career than many previously though.
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, boxing historian Patrick Connor and author/filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler discuss the life and career of Morrison, who died in 2013.

Not much in boxing gets fans and pundits excited like a great heavyweight fight. As it happens, Riddick Bowe and Evander Holyfield had three great fights between them.
From round 10 of the first bout, to Fan Man, heart issues, Rock Newman... This trilogy had it all.
On this episode of Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, author and filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler joins boxing historian Patrick Connor in remembering the excellent set of fights these two heavyweights laid on the altar of the boxing gods.

Well, at least a portion of Deontay Wilder's draw with Tyson Fury was the fight we had all wanted. Those parts were exciting, riveting, and they had us simply wanting more. The rest was on the slow side, but we knew that could be a possibilty.
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, boxing historian Patrick Connor and author/filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler team up to recap the action, talk about each fighter's future, what it means for the heavyweight division, and more.

It's been a little while since our last history episode. We apologize. But we're back with another to make up for it!
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, boxing historian Patrick Connor teams up with CompuBox operator and fellow fight historian Aris Pina to remember some of the greatest boxer vs. puncher matchups in the history of the heavyweight division. Since this weekend features a Showtime Pay-Per-View between Deontay Wilder and Tyson Fury, the theme fits.
Since we're in the mood to catch up a bit, Patrick and Aris will also reveal how they cast their votes for 2019's induction class in the International Boxing Hall of Fame.

Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury might not be the heavyweight fight boxing wants, but perhaps it's the heavyweight fight boxing deserves. We're not sure how that whole analogy goes, so that might not be right either. But we do know Wilder-Fury is the fight we're getting. And it's this weekend.
So this week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, author and filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler joined boxing historian Patrick Connor to talk about the time he spent in Wilder's camp. But there's also discussion about Adonis Stevenson vs Oleksandr Gvozdyk, Manny Pacquiao vs Adrien Broner and more.

Not only did Terence Crawford dominate and stop Jose Benavidez last weekend, but over 2 million people tuned in to watch it on ESPN. Paired with recent news that Saul "Canelo" Alvarez signed to fight on DAZN, this sounds like great news for the sport of boxing and it's immediate future.
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, author and filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler joined boxing historian Patrick Connor in discussing Crawford-Benavidez, DAZN, the Canelo signing, Deontay Wilder vs Tyson Fury and more.

Many people in boxing circles had speculated for months, if not years, that HBO would be tapering down its boxing programming to zero at some point. After the recent announcement that HBO would no longer be consistently invested in boxing, those people were more or less proven correct.
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, CompuBox operater Aris Pina joins fellow fight history fanatic Patrick Connor in remembering some of HBO Boxing's greatest -- and worst -- moments. From HBO Boxing's beginning, clear on into its peak and the proliferation of Pay-Per-View fight cards and onto much more, HBO has been played an essential role in boxing for 45 years. It deserves some remembrance.

Anthony Joshua is probably the best heavyweight in the world. Probably. And his stoppage victory over Alexander Povetkin went a long way in backing that suggestion up.
After several rounds of a difficult fight, Joshua finally came through with a combination that stole Povetkin's legs and handed him his first stoppage loss. It remains to be seen what comes of Deontay Wilder's showdown with Tyson Fury, but the winner should be turned toward Joshua to determine supremacy.
This week on Knuckles and Gloves Boxing Radio, join author/filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler and boxing historian Patrick Connor in discussing Joshua-Povetkin, the possibility of a huge bout with the Wilder-Fury winner and more!
