Big Fight Weekend Boxing Podcast

From the opening bell to the final round, our boxing shows are tailored to the fight fan of today and even, yesterday.

Host T.J. Rives and insider Dan Rafael, who is the premier boxing media personality in the U.S., come your way with a Friday preview and a Monday recap of everything in the boxing ring, every weekend.

Plus, you'll hear from the biggest named fighters present and past in one on one interviews. And, the guys LOVE to talk nostalgia of the great fighters like Muhammad Ail, Sugar Ray Leonard, Mike Tyson, Oscar De La Hoya, Manny Pacquaio and more.

If you are even a casual boxing fan, you will want to be with us on the "Big Fight Weekend Boxing Podcast Feed."

    One of the best!
    They do a consistent job of reviewing the week upcoming and the past week’s fights. I like TJ, stop being so grumpy Dan!

    Dan has a tremendous wealth of knowledge about boxing, from history to the minute inner workings of the various sanctioning bodies. TJ brings in a good level perspective and the two play well off of each other, when they’re not interrupting one another. Plus, neither whines nearly as much as Chris Mannix; this is a much better podcast than his. Only minor criticism is the format of the podcast is kinda stale. It’s always fight preview/recap, news, then nostalgia. I think podcast would be better served doing the nostalgia bit once a week on either Sunday or Thursday, and then that other day doing Q and A from fans or something along those lines.

    Great show.
    Very good chemistry between the principals. They are both well informed.

    Dan Raphael is by far the most knowledgeable Boxing analyst currently. By profession, a writer, so hearing him speak is like a deluge of information. If you can keep up with him, the amount of facts and command he has of the sport is incredible. TJ does a good job at keeping the focus and progression of the show, which can be a difficult job at times. Their interpersonal relationship and banter can be fun, and adds to the show. Can’t wait for every episode. Won’t miss any.

    Decent Pod
    Decent pod but Dans’s supercilious attitude can become a bit wearing at times.
  • DaveInChicago
    A staple for non-casuals
    I only listen to a handful of boxing podcasts and I never miss this one. I also appreciate that I can listen with my 9 year old who is also a huge boxing fan.
  • Two Ton Tony G

    More Dan- Less TJ
    Dan is awesome, TJ 👎
  • kevcol
    Love Dan
    Great writer, and excellent on audio. The other dude is tough to take. Memo to second banana: zip it, and let Dan finish a sentence.
  • aarontol
    Great podcast for boxing fan
    Thanks Dan and TJ for helping me get through my Monday mornings by recapping all things boxing over the weekend! 10/10 recommend for any boxing fan. Dan Rafael is THE boxing insider and has a ton of 1-on-1 interviews.

    Consistent Quality
    Two pros. Good chemistry. I keep it in my rotation.
  • TShaneRogers
    The most entertaining and educational boxing podcast, and it's not even close
    TJ Rives is a pro, but the secret sauce here is the human boxing-encyclopedia known as Dan Rafael. No other show offers this level of educated insight, detailed analysis, and historical context. (Plus the weekly "nostalgia" rewinds are amazing.) Keep up the great work, fellas.
  • matt2377review
    good show but
    where’s the youtube feed (even if just audio)?
  • Danny Plas
    Boxing # 1 Podcast
    This is boxings #1 Podcast! But commercial editing is horrible. The commercial breaks shouldn’t be in the middle of the conversations.

    My absolute favorite podcast.
  • DCMalcolm
    You already know…
    Dan’s the man and TJ has got a great voice. Raefield really loves the sport and has a wealth of knowledge. Everyone has an opinion but Dan has what I like to call an “educated opinion”. I just wish they would stop putting spoilers in the d*mn title lines because they post like 10 minutes after the fight so I have to try not to open my podcast app if I so happened to not catch an event live lol

    Great show
    I really enjoy the combination of Dan’s reporting and TJ’s radio commenting style together. I enjoy the nostalgia too especially since I got into boxing in 2012 around Paquiao vs Marquez 4. I enjoy the boxing knowledge that both of you guys bring to the show. Keep up the great work guys.
