SUNNY FALLS, GALA SOARS, OKOLIE MOVES.
The Boys Are Back in Town—No, Not Thin Lizzy! Steve Lillis reunites with his former BoxNation colleague Alex Steedman, alongside the ever-reliable John Evans, for another episode of Bell 2 Bell. This week, the trio tackles six captivating topics, each debated within a strict three-minute window. In the aftermath of this weekend’s dramatic events, the team delves into the burning questions: Just how good is Galal Yafai? Did his performance send Sunny Edwards tumbling from world level, or is Galal already proving himself a top-tier fighter? They also examine Lawrence Okolie’s move to heavyweight—how will he fare in the formidable division? Additionally, the concept of a ‘drawn round’ gives some food for thought: should boxing incorporate more drawn rounds? The guys reflect on the Central Area showdown between Kane Gardner and Reece MacMillan, where razor-thin margins left some rounds almost impossible to call. Catch all this and more in the latest episode of Bell 2 Bell, featuring top horseracing and boxing broadcaster Alex Steedman.
