    I wanted to make a thread for guest suggestions.

    Obviously I can't just get anyone, so there are no guarantees, but I'm curious who are some of the fighters (active or retired) whom you guys would be most interested in listening to.

    I'm not really looking for long lists of fighters.

    I guess what I'm looking for is for each poster to name one or two fighters they would really like to hear on the show, and perhaps give a reason as to why that person should be a top priority in me and Jenna's guest-hunting efforts.

    Please let me know what you think, and thanks in advance!

    :thumbsup

    Jeez man, doesn't seem you need any help. :good

    Sugar Shane Mosley this week. Damn. Im in radio and know its not easy to interview someone you admire, can be nerve-wracking. Especially without training, props to you and Boxing girl man.

    Carl Froch; currently quite popular, got a big fight coming up, never short of a quote and a genuinely affable, well-spoken guy.

    Thanks man, I appreciate that. I'm not going to lie, the two active fighters I have been most interested in getting were Mosley and Hopkins.

    I'm very fired-up about having Mosley appear.

    Funny you should mention him, because we're actively working to try and get him on the show sometime soon.

    Fingers crossed.

    :lol:

    I think I'm about 100 years late on that one.

    Unless you happen to know a good medium? But I suspect a live seance might be frowned upon by our listeners.

    Mosley will be on this upcoming Monday.

    I'll continue seeing what I could do about Hopkins, and I think there's a better than average chance we can get Froch on.

    As far as Terry Norris goes, I could be mistaken, but I think Jenna was in contact with him at some point or another.

    Here's a top 10. Remember, you asked for it:

    01 - Elbows McFadden
    02 - Bernard Hopkins
    03 - Chris Eubank & Nigel Benn (be interesting! but they're friends now...)
    04 - Ken Buchanan
    05 - Jeff Fenech
    06 - Joe Frazier
    07 - Bob Foster
    08 - Evander Holyfield
    09 - Mike McCallum
    10 - Brian Mitchell


    Would all be very cool
