Finding the right Boxing News show for you

The best boxing news shows do something the sport rarely does for itself. They tell you what happened on Saturday, why the fight everyone wants still isn't signed, and whether the noise around it deserves your attention. The business side keeps crowding into the conversation. In September 2026 the newspaper AS reported Andy Ruiz's podcast remarks about approaching a deal with Zuffa, a sign that these conversations now feed the wider news cycle. Not every listener welcomes that. In an October 2026 reply in an r/Boxing thread, one listener complained that a show's fight episodes spent too little time on fighters and fights.

Money is the quieter argument. A May 2026 Podnews report described increased discussion of memberships, subscriptions and tips alongside advertising. Near the end of several episodes below, hosts point listeners to a Patreon or a Substack. The shows differ most in temperament, so that is how this page sorts them.

One voice, the whole weekend

In Episode 149 - Who Should Ben Whittaker Fight Next?, the host of In The Corner covers a lot of ground in 38 minutes. He moves from Whittaker's latest early finish to a BKFC card in Denver, and catches himself after fusing two fighters' names. His verdicts come ready-made: he calls Antonio Vargas "maybe the worst world champion currently in the sport." He checks the press too. In Episode 134 - Conor Benn Gets $15M for...Regis Prograis he takes apart a Ring magazine claim that a card was struggling to sell tickets, pointing out that tickets had not yet gone on sale.

Michael Montero, host of Montero On Boxing and The Neutral Corner boxing podcast, is the corrective to hype. In Shakur Stevenson the GOAT Already? Slow Down!!! he reads out Max Kellerman's post-fight tweet placing Stevenson among the elite, then answers it: "pump the brakes and stop being so desperate." If you want the fights themselves taken apart, the Fight Analysis & Commentary page is next door.

Reporters with long memories

The Opening Bell; A boxing podcast pairs Matt Christie and Alex Steedman, and it is the most reflective company here. In FURY V JOSHUA? – BENN’S POWER CUT, one host calls the ringside staging a ridiculous bit of theatre. He then turns to Anthony Joshua, who he notes lost two of his closest friends in a car crash: "I think he deserves to be granted that time to know where his head's at." In DEL BOY’S LAST STAND? TYSON FURY RETURNS, watching Derek Chisora, the show counts itself in: "We work in boxing. We're no angels." That Fury–Joshua episode also revisits Michael Brodie's rematch with In-jin Chi, and CANELO PICKS HIS BATTLE returns to Srisaket Sor Rungvisai's 2017 rematch with Chocolatito.

Big Fight Weekend Boxing Podcast brings a Friday preview and a Monday recap from host T.J. Rives and Dan Rafael, who are at their best when they disagree. In Moses Itauma Meets Dillian Whyte + Canelo-Crawford Undercard And Joshua Fighting Paul? | BFW Preview Podcast, they argue openly about why the Ali Act came in, with Don King's contracts at the centre. For more of the build-up, try the Fight Previews page.

Showtime Boxing offers history of another kind. EPISODE 299: MORRELL BEATS AGBEKO, SHOWTIME LEAVES BOXING, TOP 5 SHOWTIME FIGHTERS EVER, from December 2023, finds Eric Raskin and Kieran Mulvaney on the network's way out of the sport.

When fighters pull up a chair

Ringside Toe2Toe Boxing Podcast, hosted by Andy Scott, builds around guests. In Will Fury-AJ fight finally happen? | Riakporhe wants world title shot | Scotney targeting Serrano, Richard Riakporhe talks about the Lonsdale belt and joining a lineage that includes Henry Cooper. A panellist then declares that if the guest being addressed isn't a superstar beyond boxing within 18 months, Sky and MVP are not doing their jobs. It is a pointed thing to say on a podcast, and the room simply agrees.

BoxHard Boxing Podcast, with Joey Coast-Man and Eddie Chambers, logs results card by card in its Mykal Fox episode. In BoxHard Podcast Episode 539: Mykal Fox, the guest recalls his father making small talk on the way to a weigh-in before mentioning that the opponent was out.

Fight Night Boxing Podcast, on TalkSport, can turn heavier still. Its Bilal Fawaz episode includes a guest's account of arriving at social services as a teenager. He says that from 14 to 33 he could not work or go to university, yet he still boxed for England: "I became a number F1062852." For more voices from inside the ropes, head to the Fighter Interviews page.

The argument with the lines open

Some shows sound like a room you can walk into. On Ring King Boxing World, hosted by Big Q, Wilder BEATS Chisora! Controversy & What’s Next?! folds in post-fight press audio. The host then urges you to put your headset on to listen closely.

Ringside Reporter, with Joe Habib, takes callers. In its Wilder–Chisora episode, one host borrows an online commentator's verdict that it looked like a Misfits fight.

J & Brey Boxing podcast is louder again. TJABB EP.312 STATE OF THE UNION PT.2 spends 85 minutes moving from Oscar De La Hoya's legal disputes to whether Shakur Stevenson's wins will age well. The language is salty and the pace is loose, but the reward is two hosts who plainly mind what happens to the sport. For the wider field, go back to the Boxing guide or the Sports category guide.
