The light heavyweight division is one of the oldest of the "original" divisions, and Artur Beterbiev vs Dmitry Bivol is but an extension of the division's history. It's a necessary fight that nearly everyone wanted.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor teams up with Compubox operator and fellow history guy Aris Pina to preview Beterbiev-Bivol and discussion a host of unsung, forgotten and underrated light heavyweights from history.
The International Boxing Hall of Fame in Canastota, New York has been around since 1990, and there aren't too many history podcasts out there where the hosts have nearly 30 years of IBHOF voting between them.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, two IBHOF voters discuss a number of fighters on the modern ballot.
Which fighters are deserving of the vote? Which are deserving of being on the ballot? Which aren't? Who SHOULD be on the ballot that isn't? We tackle these questions and more!

In the early 2000s, both Manny Pacquiao and Edwin Valero were new and hard-hitting lower weight sensations. Their career trajectories were clearly on different paths, but for a few years, Pacquiao-Valero was a mythical matchup most fans would have been happy to get. And we really weren't that far from getting it.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor and author/filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler discuss the careers of Pacquiao, Valero and their imaginary fight.

Our respect and reverence for boxing's trainers hasn't changed since Part 1, but with only a finite amount of time with which to work, we had to return for more.

Many things about boxing can't quite be duplicated. One of them is the thrill of waiting for an unknown decision to be read. Adjacent to that is the mixture of anger and embarrassment felt as a fan when a bad decision is rendered.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor and Compubox operator and historian Aris Pina team up to remember a number of decisions that got their hackles up.

Deontay Wilder, aka "The Bronze Bomber," is almost certainly at the end of his career. At the very least, he appears to be approaching the end very quickly. There can be no question that he often delivered entertainment and, in terms of his career, he over-performed.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor teams up with author and filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler to discuss Wilder's career and legacy.

Juan Francisco Estrada and Jesse "Bam" Rodríguez should be a high level super flyweight/junior bantamweight clash. Thankfully we've been able to follow the lower weight classes far more closely in recent years, and this fight should add to the legacy of the division.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor and fellow historian/Compubox operator Aris Pina team up to preview Estrada vs Rodríguez, plus discuss some of the history of the super flyweight/junior bantamweight division.

Boxing has it all: great characters, tragedy, triumph, drama. But the sport is also packed full of knuckleheads. You know them. The fighters who couldn't keep from opening their mouths, couldn't stay out of trouble and so forth.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, we focused on the recent International Boxing Hall of Fame induction weekend and recent knuckleheads, which inspired more history-based knucklehead talk.

Heavyweight slugfests. There's just something about two large fighters wrecking one another that's so difficult to turn away from.
Deontay Wilder's heavyweight showdown with Zhilei Zhang features two heavy punchers among the big men, and while there are asterisks (which we discuss!), it could wind up being a heck of a fight.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, we preview Wilder-Zhang and remember a bunch of heavyweight slugfests.

Oleksandr Usyk is the new undisputed heavyweight champion. That sentence alone tells you what you need to know. There were other details, sure. Like how Tyson Fury put up a scrap, and how it was a great fight. And the locale was interesting.
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, boxing historian Patrick Connor is joined by fellow history guru Aris Pina and author/filmmaker Brin-Jonathan Butler in recapping an excellent heavyweight championship fight.

At one point, the heavyweight championship was the most-coveted title in mainstream sports. Management teams and promoters are often inspired to take shortcuts, or at least unconventional paths, to lead a fighter to something nearing the heavyweight title.
On this episode, we briefly talk about Anthony Joshua's clash with Francis Ngannou, but spend the bulk of the episode recalling other heavyweights from history who were fast-tracked.

A pugilistic tale as old as time: how do today's best fighters measure up to history's best fighters? Saúl "Canelo" Álvarez, Tyson Fury, Terence Crawford, Naoya Inoue, Oleksandr Usyk and company... How would they do against the leaders of yesteryear?
On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, the fight historian 1-2 of Patrick Connor and Aris Pina tackle the issue and offer (ahem) the absolutely most definitive answers possible.
