TNT sport UK and ROI have lost their boxing coverage to DAZN with Queensberry moving over. I see Carl Frampton has moved onto that platform but the couple of DAZN cards I've watched not seen Steve Bunce. Is he still doing radio coverage? Either way I'm sure hes still involved in boxing. He's a fighters advocate as well. I remember him tracking down Kirkland Laing many years ago was a pretty sad piece as Laing was pretty much homeless iirc. If anyone ever saw the Bernard Hopkins interview he did around that time Hopkins certainly took a dislike to his line of questioning!
I do like Steve., he's good fun, and I've not missed a 5Live pod in about 4 years in listening. Be interested where he goes next, as TNT was a regular gig for him. It was a natural move after BoxNation, with Frank. I'd be surprised if he makes the move to DAZN, not a fit tbh. Costello is a free agent of sorts atm too
He did an event with Josh Taylor in Edinburgh a few months ago. He was good fun and pretty funny. Good at speaking in front of a decent sized audience. Was happy to speak to people and take photos afterwards too.
It’s a yes from me - but more for things like podcasts and books than pundit work. Althouh the TNT lads seemed to tame him. Costello was his perfect co-host though, hope they can get back together somewhere. “The Rest Is Boxing” or something. Make a few quid for themselves.
I like Buncey. We’re gonna get less like him and more of Parsons in the future so appreciate him whilst he’s here.
