Veteran broadcaster Steve Bunce talks to both men as the countdown to this weekend's world championship fight enters its final stretch.
The talking is nearly over. With a world title on the line this weekend, boxing's most familiar voice, Steve Bunce, has sat down with both fighters for a pre-fight conversation as the tension builds.
These final days before a championship bout are when the picture sharpens. Training camps are wrapping up, weight is being managed, and the mental game takes over. Hearing from both men back to back gives fans a rare chance to compare how each is handling the pressure.
Bunce has spent decades covering the sport, and his interviews tend to draw out what fighters really feel as the first bell approaches. Confidence, nerves, game plans and the hunger for a world title all tend to surface when the questions are good and the stakes are this high.
With both camps now having said their piece, the only thing left is to settle it in the ring. Fight week is here, and the conversation moves from words to punches on Saturday.
