  • ROBERT SMITH: THE IMPOSSIBLE JOB
    2026/10/21
    Robert Smith, as the General Secretary of the British Boxing Board of Control, has what can only be described as the hardest and most impossible job in British boxing. Never one to duck a question, Robert highlights how hard his role is as we discuss the latest controversial decision to leave observers screaming 'robbery', the actions of a referee who twice opted to ignore the towel after it had been thrown in an effort to stop the fight and we go deep into the process such incidents trigger. There's the issue of boxers fighting on too long or coming back when it's clear their best days have gone. PEDs in the sport has been a thorn in Rob's side, whether due to his disappointment with the boxers involved or the legislation he's had little choice but to accept. And, finally, there's the exit door that he admits is getting closer and closer. Thanks, one and all, for supporting The Opening Bell. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • DISSECTING THE SURGEON; MAYWEATHER, CHISORA PLOT RETURNS
    2026/10/08
    What started out as plain sailing for Ben Whittaker hit choppy waters in the late rounds of his battle with Conor Wallace. 'The Surgeon', however, just about stayed afloat to remain unbeaten in his first 12-round fight. As ever with Whittaker, the critics came out in mass. Was the criticism fair? Or was it merely a young fighter finding his way through a tough spot? The referee, Kieran McCann, also received stick. We hear the BBBoC's verdict on his performance. Joining Matt is up-and-coming journalist Tom Ivers, who was ringside to witness Whittaker, has spent time with him in the gym, and is well-placed to add some balance to the discussion. We get to hear about Tom's own journey into the sport, from his days as a promising amateur to the stoppage loss that ended his career, through to him making his mark in the world of boxing journalism. There's also comebacks to discuss, namely those of Derek Chisora and Floyd Mayweather, who may or may not be about to return. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
