Andy Lee is one of Ireland’s greatest ever boxers, and now he’s becoming one of our best coaches. His star man, former heavyweight champion Joseph Parker, has had two huge victories in the last 6 months, and Andy has not just arrested Parker’s slide but has put him right in the top echelon of a suddenly-vibrant heavyweight division.

Andy is in studio to talk to us about what to say to your fighter in the corner after a knock down, rebuilding a fighter’s confidence, and how he feels about being in Saudi Arabia for some recent fights.

We also hear final words of wisdom from John O’Shea and Josh Cullen ahead of tomorrow’s Ireland match against Belgium (2 Josh’s, but no joshing), England’s latest culture war, and there’s a bumper TV guide to your sporting weekend.
