How does a fighter from that boxing Mecca known as Omaha, Nebraska (home of Ron Stander??) ascend to the heights that Terence Crawford has achieved over the past four years?
The undefeated, undisputed 140-pound world champ (now headed to 147) spoke to Travis Hartman and Dennis Taylor from a noisy Omaha basketball gym about his interesting background and his meteoric rise to the top of the boxing world in an in-depth conversation on The Ringside Boxing Show.
We also get insight from expert analysts Travis Hartman, Rizwaan Zahid and John J. Raspanti about (1) Amir Khan's decision to eat bugs in the jungle for a TV show instead focusing on another world boxing championship, (2) De La Hoya's weird call-out of Conor McGregor at age 44, nine years into retirement. (3) Sergey Kovalev's comeback date with Vyacheslav Shabranskyy, (4) the weekend fight review, (5) and the passing of Ferdie Pacheco -- Muhammad Ali's personal doctor, respected TV analyst, accomplished artist.
Front to back, this is a show not to be missed.
