Inside Boxing | Oleksandr Usyk vs. Rico Verhoeven preview & betting picks, Richard Torrez’s big moment, Ryan Garcia says Conor Benn is next
from The Ariel Helwani Show · host Ariel Helwani
Dan Canobbio and Chris Algieri kick off the show breaking down the heavyweight title fight between champion Oleksandr Usyk and kickboxing legend Rico Verhoeven. Why is this fight happening? Does Verhoeven have any shot at all (01:03)? We introduce a new segment to the show and lay out the odds for the Usyk-Verhoeven fight as well as the co-main event which features Richard Torrez Jr. stepping up to face veteran Frank Sanchez (28:42). The rest of the undercard features the return of Hamzah Sheeraz fighting for the vacant WBO 168-pound title against unknown German Alem Begic. Could Sheeraz fight Jaime Munguia or Canelo Alvarez next? The other notable undercard fight is a WBA interim title fight between Shakram Giyasov and Jack Catterall (38:01). Finally, Ryan Garcia recently appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and announced his next fight against Conor Benn. Do we believe Ryan? Will Zuffa and Golden Boy play nice and do business together (52:28).
