We began this podcast because fighters are fascinating. The mentality needed to prepare for war intrigues us, and the lengths these warriors are prepared to go to in order to win is astounding. So when we see an accomplished Olympian, quit because he was getting embarrassed, you better be ready for us to erupt. We tell you exactly what we think on Rigondeaux on the same night Stephen Smith fought with his ear hanging off. We also preview this weeks fights including Billy Joe Saunders trip to Canada. *Please leave a review on iTunes http://apple.co/2wijpC1 *Follow us on Facebook www.facebook.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Twitter www.twitter.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Instagram www.instagram.com/fightdisciples We are pleased to announce our new clothing partnership with www.luke1977.com Please use DISCOUNT CODE FDLR15 in the checkout to receive 15% off your total purchase. #BOXING #LOMARIGO #LOMACHENKO #RIGONDEAUX #NEWYORK Learn more about your ad choices.

This weekend we have a history making fight in New York but are the fans bothered? The event is in the smaller Theater at MSG rather than the Garden which tells you all you need to know but there's no denying the two fighters credentials. Never before have we seen 2 double Olympic gold medalists meet in the pro ranks. Lets hope Loma vs Rigo lives up to the purists billing rather than the casual interest. *Please leave a review on iTunes http://apple.co/2wijpC1 *Follow us on Facebook www.facebook.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Twitter www.twitter.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Instagram www.instagram.com/fightdisciples We are pleased to announce our new clothing partnership with www.luke1977.com Please use DISCOUNT CODE FDLR15 in the checkout to receive 15% off your total purchase. #BOXING #LOMARIGO #LOMACHENKO #RIGONDEAUX #COTTO Learn more about your ad choices.

It's the perfect event for a UK MMA fan. Not only is the original pioneer of the sport headlining the card, on short notice after losing his world title 3 weeks ago but it's also broadcast at noon on a Saturday which beats staying up into the early hours!

We believe he can but there will be early challenges to overcome in China. *Please leave a review on iTunes http://apple.co/2wijpC1 *Follow us on Facebook www.facebook.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Twitter www.twitter.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Instagram www.instagram.com/fightdisciples We are pleased to announce our new clothing partnership with www.luke1977.com Please use DISCOUNT CODE FDLR15 in the checkout to receive 15% off your total purchase. #MMA #UFC #CHINA #SHANGHAI #BISPING #UFCSHANGHAI Learn more about your ad choices.

Earlier this year, Carl Frampton spoke to us about retirement. That was before he switched management, coach and TV platform which has obviously given him a new spring in his step. The opportunities for the former 2 weight world champion are endless and legacy fights are on the horizon for 2018 providing he comes through Horacio Garcia in his home town on Saturday. *Please leave a review on iTunes http://apple.co/2wijpC1 *Follow us on Facebook www.facebook.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Twitter www.twitter.com/fightdisciples *Follow us on Instagram www.instagram.com/fightdisciples We are pleased to announce our new clothing partnership with www.luke1977.com Please use DISCOUNT CODE FDLR15 in the checkout to receive 15% off your total purchase. #BOXING #BELFAST #FRAMPTON Learn more about your ad choices.
