Boxing radio stations?

[Kel]

Maybe I'm hoping for too much thinking there was a 'talksport' type boxing show 24/7 lol.

Cheers Ouma I'll check them out

I don't think there is a 24/7 one.

I know of two weekly shows that are on Fightnews.com

One is tonight, and every Thursday, at 9:00 pm ET/6:00 pm PT - It's called Through The Ropes, and they are talking to Paul Williams and Al Bernstein tonight. They have different guests every week. Here's a link.

TONIGHT: Through the Ropes! | Fightnews - Boxing News Updated 24/7


And almost every Saturday morning, Fightnews.com also has another show from WKNR here in Cleveland, and it usually starts at 9:00 or 10:00 am ET. They usually have 2 or 3 guests each time as well.

Cheers hun, looks like these hour long shows is all we boxing fans have. I'd give my right eye for a Boxing radio station or a dedicated Boxing TV channel. There just ain't enough of boxing anywhere for my liking-apart from here, there is just enough here

It's like when I go into a shop looking for a boxing magazine and they don't stock any..........then you clock all these horse riding, stamp collecting, knitting pattern, bird watching fucking antique mags everywhere.

You could also maybe try looking up boxing podcasts? It's a little like a radio station, just not live all the time.. but most podcasts upload all their previous episodes so you can just grab a big bunch and listen to at your convenience..

I remember when I was looking for online radio a while ago, I went through the winamp website, and there was a page that had an ENORMOUS list and you could pick all sorts of different genre's like Metal, Punk, RnB, but then they had Talkback, Sport etc.. So you might find one of the sports stations has a boxing show each week, or maybe even a station specific to boxing..
But I think even people on here would get bored hosting a radio station entirely dedicated to boxing..


If you find any good ones let us know!

Theres KO Radio weekly show on Modern Boxing


This was started up by JimC who was one of the original members of saddoboxing - probably not many around now who remember him.


The guy he talks to is called Sergio Martinez who I seem to remember did a one off Saddoboxing radio show a few years back (not sure what his user name is/was he may still be a member ??), and had Taansend as one of his phone in guests.

That brings up the idea of Saddoboxing having a weekly podcast or something done by any member who's up for it, just to discuss the fights that are happening the following week.. A segmant on an up and coming fighter. ie, their style, who they've fought, their division, what their prospects are for the future etc... A format could be put together, and then anyone can nominate themselves to do a show and anyone else can help them do research etc for each part of the show..

I'd be up for working out a format for it and maybe scripting the first show?? I would need a bit of help as I don't have any boxing/sports channel etc that keeps people up to date on what's happening, so my whole research would come from here and around the web...

But I think it would be a great idea and pretty managable,,, Saddo can have a final sign off on the show before it's uploaded/aired,,,, and of course Saddo can have a couple of advertising spots on the show where he can sell advertising etc if it starts getting a decent amount of downloads..


Who thinks it could be a good idea??

That wasnt Taansend, that was Frank Warren

In case anyone is interested, the show that is on Saturday morning on Fightnews.com will have Timothy Bradley, and Jack Loew as guests. The time for the show is 10:00 am ET/7:00 am PT.
