*new* V2 Boxing Podcast with Peter Fury and Deontay Wilders manager

Welcome back to another edition of the v2 Boxing show.

This week Adam and Owen are joined by not only one great guest but two who are both friends of the show and returning guests.

First up is Jay Deas, manager of Deontay Wilder. For those who have heard our previous interviews with Jay, its refreshing to find an American manager with such a grasp of the world scene, especially the UK.

During the conversation, he talks about Deontays likely upcoming opponents, sparring with David Haye and the fight path that he has for Deontay to get him to a world title fight - you might be surprised how quickly it is!

The one thing that always comes over when talking to Jay is just how knowledgable he is and the feeling that Deontay is in with someone who understands the business.

After Jay left us, we were joined by Peter Fury to give us an update on Tysons training camp. As always, Peter was entertaining and straight talking. We discussed the pictures of Tyson that were posted and the way that the training camp was shaping up, as well as the sparring partners that the team were currently using.

Although Peter stopped short of talking fight night tactics (obviously!), he did give us an insight into how he felt the fight was going to play out.

As well as all things Tyson, we also had a brief chat with Peter about Hughies progress and the fights they have tried to line up including an ex world champ.

Finally the show ends with a very quick 5 minute run down of this weeks action along with our predictions.

Enjoy the show and spread the word!

Not yet mate because my windows phone didn't support the software for some reason (Windows 8).

Had a listen this morning. Thought it was very good.  Enjoyed the presenting, it's stepping up all the time.


I like listening to Deas.  He really seems to have a good business head but at the same time you can hear in his voice he is still passionate about boxing.  I reckon a show with him talking about his favourite fighters of all time or the history of the heavyweight division would be good.

I know it is a difficult balancing act but I would like to have heard some tougher questions asked about why Wilder has been so very protected (his chin is my guess).  I also wasn't impressed with Wilder's in ring antics during the period when Liakhovich lay unconscious on the ground.

For the future I wouldn't mind hearing Peter's take on fighters losing their unbeaten record.  I get the feeling he doesn't see it as a bad thing just part of being a fighting man.

A good fun podcast this week - we had Enzo Calzaghe back on to tell us his thoughts on Enzo Mac, Clev and Joes cooking skillls.

Punches in bunches.

PUNCHES IN BUNCHES!!!!

Yep, Enzo was certainly good value last night. My only complaint is that he craftily swerved my question regarding the level of Cleverly's opposition prior to fighting Kovalev!
