Ep122: Point Taken?
Ep. 122
•
This week we start with Lerone Murphy’s narrow loss to Movsar Evloev and the debate around scoring and point deductions. We also get into Tom Aspinall’s situation, with Eddie Hearn calling his UFC contract a “disgrace” and the wider issue of fighter pay.
In football, Tottenham’s struggles continue under Igor Tudor, while there’s a deep dive into Thomas Tuchel’s England squad, who’s in, who’s out and the potential best XI. Of course, we also cover Arsenal’s Carabao Cup final loss, where Mikel Arteta’s decision to start Kepa over Raya backfired.
Finally, a preview of Moses Itauma vs Jermaine Franklin and the classic prospect vs gatekeeper dynamic in the heavyweight division.
