In this episode me and Matt tackle one of our favourite subjects: Matchmaking.

Good matchmaking is crucial not only to the development of individual fighters but to the overall health of the sport. It’s a genuine art and good matchmakers are worth their weight in gold. They know how to pick the right opponents at the right time, how to provide boxers with the in-ring education they need to develop and improve and also of course how and when to deliver to the paying public the fights we want to see.

One of the best around is Goldenboy Promotions matchmaker Robert Diaz and we were lucky enough to catch up with him in Yucatan, Mexico.

It was an education so we hope you get as much out of it as we did.

And we talked a bit of Canelo vs Smith and Garcia vs Campbell too.
