Sean McComb - Who Wants It?

Belfast’s elite 140lb technician Sean McComb joins the pod to discuss the high-stakes, low-reward reality of being one of the most avoided fighters in world boxing.With an August 1 date at the 3Arena fast approaching and opponents still playing hide-and-seek, ‘Sugar Sean’ opens up about the immense frustration of belonging to the ‘Who Needs ’Em?’ club. We discuss the surreal experience of being recognised around town as ‘that podcaster’ rather than ‘that boxer’, proof that The Public Nuisance is flying, even if it brings a different kind of spotlight. He also explains why he was probably better off in the long run not qualifying for Rio 2016.Eleven years ago, Sean told Kevin he was fighting to secure an early retirement. Today, the gym owner and podcaster explains why being a ‘people person’ means he actually wants to stay busy for ever.He also breaks down the domestic scene, making it clear that he wants to fight everyone, including card-topper Pierce O’Leary. Finally, he explains why his 6ft-plus southpaw style would dismantle global superstar Shakur Stevenson and how his training-camp wit disarms the great Katie Taylor. Hosted on Acast.
