In Part 1 of an exclusive two-part interview, legendary boxing manager Brian Peters joins Kevin Byrne to break down Katie Taylor’s historic Croke Park fight night and the landmark deal to bring live boxing back to RTÉ. Brian reflects on the 17-minute sell-out demand, why he and KT refuse to take 'no' for an answer, suddenly and unexpectedly getting emotional at the press conference, the importance of building on momentum when you have it, emphasising the power of GAA HQ to the Brits, his time working with the Meath footballers in the 90s and a late-night run-in with Hollywood actor Colm Meaney.
