Synopsis

Ben Whittaker joins Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Ian Wright to discuss his rise in boxing, being labelled the sport's villain, and why he decided to sign with Eddie Hearn.

Ben opens up about the criticism he's received for his showboating style, responds to Prince Naseem Hamed's comments, explains why he believes he's destined to become a world champion, and names David Benavidez as the opponent he wants to face next at Wembley Stadium.

The panel also discuss Ben's footballing comparisons, from Lamine Yamal and Michael Olise to his favourite player, Cesc Fàbregas, before Gary steps up for a light-hearted sparring lesson with the unbeaten light-heavyweight.

Elsewhere, Ben reveals why Floyd Mayweather is the greatest boxer of all time, explains why he stays away from partying, discusses the financial side of boxing, and shares why he believes Eddie Hearn is the right promoter to take him to the very top.
