Macklin's Take #12 with Frankie Gavin

This week me & Matt Macklin sought out one of our best ever amateurs, 2007 World champion Frankie Gavin. He's always shied away from the media spotlight but sitting in his Birmingham gym we discuss the pressure on top amateur fighters who turn pro, the difference between the 2 codes and the chaotic nature of life as a boxer. Regrets? It's fair to say that Gavin has a few but he also achieved a lot and I'm pleased to say that we found him in a good place. It was an interesting hour. Desire + ...

Macklin's Take #10 with Thomas Hauser

Whilst in NYC me and Matt Macklin were absolutely determined to get legendary boxing journalist Thomas Hauser onto the podcast and luckily for us he agreed. The hour we had with him was one of the most illuminating we've experienced on Macklin's Take. Thomas pulls no punches, cares deeply about the sport and its future and bows in the face of no governing body, promoter, manager, fighter or fellow journalist. Plenty claim to "say it as it is" but nobody says it quite like Hauser. Desire + Capita...
