Good work.

I hope your viewers understand him - in my experience (fairly limited) Americans don't really see sarcasm/irony as quickly or as naturally as British people do.

Will make sure I'm listening for that one :good

 

Very nice and well spoken, a absolute pleasure to have a interview with...plus he still has that fire for boxing as wants to beat George Foreman"s ass even today :yep

 

Class :good

I still laugh my little self away when I watch his 'dropkick' of the top off that car. Imagine having an interview with him and Berbwick today :-( RIP Trevor :good

 

Chris Eubank

Might need to extend the show to 3 hours for it but I enjoy hearing his thoughts on boxing and whatever else comes up.

The guest list for the show has been impressive. Random question though, is it possible to increase the volume of the callers/interviewees, so that it's at the same level with yourselves? I've noticed on a few different radio podcasts this can be an issue, not just with OTR. It only really makes a difference when I'm listening in busy public place, on the way to work etc.

So yeah....Chris Eubank

 

Mitch "like a homo he ran" Green

 

I'm sure he would be a entertaining guest, that for sure :!:

 

Cheers for getting Froch on the show. Other guests id like would be Steve Collins, Nigel Benn and Chris Eubank - the time they were all fighting was a brilliant era for boxing in the UK, i reckon all three of them would be quite entertaining and interesting. I'd agree with the guy above about seeing if you can do something with the volume of guest interviews, sometimes it can be a bit difficult to hear them. And get Messer back on, he was quality Other than that, keep up the good work :good

 

Alright we will certainly try and get him and a few of the other suggested guests made here :good

 

Racist.

 

Extra props to Nick if he can do a Eubank impression

 

If i had two suggestions it would be these two men.

Kostya Tszyu

Angelo Dundee

 

I understand you are looking for fighters, but why not open to the international scene, also to promoters/writers etc.

Kalle Sauerland: ask him on Super Six, Abraham, Kessler, Sylvester, Valuev-Haye, Mack-Murat etc.

Joe Koizumi: ask him how he got into boxing, the Japanese boxing scene, Kamedas, Hasegawa, Nishioka, Naito, etc., and Tyson-Douglas, very interesting interview

Sampson Lewkowicz, his background before boxing, how he managed to represent boxers from all around the world (Gabriel Campillo, Sergio Martinez, Isaac Hlatschawayo, Michael Katsidis, Chris John, Celestino Caballero, Marvin Sonsona, Simphiwi Ngqoyi, Donnie Nietes)

Writers/media guys like Steve Bunce, Thomas Hauser, Dan Rafael

US TV executives, Showtime's Ken Hershman, HBO's Ross Greenburg etc. on boxing's future on TV
