Very happy to have as my guest this week one of the best boxing writers and podcasters in the business, Tris Dixon, author of the critically acclaimed Damage and the editor at boxingscene.com.
We discussed Tris’s journey from growing up in the woods of England to training as a boxer under Kevin Rooney in the Catskills and Matthew Saad Muhammad in New Jersey. We also talk about his transition into becoming a boxing writer and eventually being named editor at Boxing News. We talked about his excellent books - Road to Nowhere and Damage, which I highly recommend.
We analyzed the big fight card from this past Saturday featuring the fight for the undisputed light heavyweight title between Artur Beterbiev and Dmitri Bivol and we also discussed the continued rumors of a Saudi boxing league and Dana White’s potential involvement.
It was a great conversation - hope you enjoy it.
