Johnny Fisher

We looked ahead to the big fight, didn't we? We did, yeah.

With Johnny Fisher, British heavyweight boxer, back in the ring soon.

His next opponent has an interesting name, which he alluded to.

And he's a pal of Connor Benn, so that was interesting.

The Hawksby and Jacobs Daily Podcast.

So, as we said, we're going to look ahead to the big fight now, live on TalkSport from Vegas this weekend between Ryan Garcia and Connor Benn.

Johnny Fisher is a gym mate of Connor Benn's.

Before we chat to him about the fight, let's hear the two guys going at it in the press conference, which did involve Ryan Garcia eating an egg.

Like, she was about to drop.

My missus was seven months pregnant, and I took her to the first Johnny Fisher fight at the O2.

There's rematches out there.

Fraser Clarke, Johnny Fisher free.

There's loads of opportunities, but really...

I heard Johnny Fisher on TalkSport the other day.

Darren McAntony was hosting.

He's like the new kind of Simon Jordan, right? He owns Peterborough Football Club, but he's very intelligent and he doesn't shy away from stuff.

Johnny Fisher's now left Matchroom, Eddie Hearn, and gone to Zuffer, who are Dana White's new boxing company.

And you seem to be enjoying life.

You got that kind of second act after the Johnny Fisher fight, and you're still enjoying it?

Yeah, life's good now, you know.

I've got kids, you know.

Basildon Joe.
