Paul v Tyson: Are influencers killing boxing or saving it?

from The Sports Agents

As a 58-year-old Mike Tyson gets back in the ring - 19 years after his last professional fight - to take on young YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul, are boxing purists right to be up in arms? Could Paul become the 'new face of the sport' if he wins? Are influencers killing boxing or giving it a lifeline? And in a world where content is king, are these fights here to stay? We discuss it all with The Guardian's Chief Sports Reporter, Sean Ingle, and Kalle Sauerland, who’s promoted over 30 world champions including Oleksandr Usyk, and is also the brains behind the influencer boxing company, Misfits Boxing (along with KSI). And did this influencer take it too far by bringing a camera crew to the New York marathon? And how does Gabby want him to be punished? Plus, is Harry Kane right about England dropouts? Or has he got a Bayern bias? 00:00 - Prize money 06:57 - Harry Kane on club v country 12:03 - Tyson v Paul 36:20 - Influencer brings camera crew to marathon Executive Producer: Adonis PratsidesProducer: Sophie PenneyVideo Producer: Sam TrudgillSocial Media Editor: Calum ScotlandTom Hughes is Editor for The News Agents podcast networkVicky Etchells is the Commissioning Editor for GlobalYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The Sports Agents".And, the Sports Agents now have merch!
