Joshua v Dubois & what actually happens when an Olympic boxer decides to go pro?

By Global

Ahead of Anthony Joshua v Daniel Dubois, two British fighters with very different journey's to world title fights, Team GB Boxing's saviour this summer - Lewis Richardson - joins Gabby and Mark to discuss the difficult decision amateur boxers face over when to turn professional and what actually happens when you do...

Lewis also looks ahead to an historic night of boxing at Wembley and reflects on his amateur days alongside Daniel Dubois.

Plus, Mark and Gabby reflect on the opening Champions League matchdays and pay tribute to the passing of both Aston Villa legend Gary Shaw and Italia 90's icon Salvatore 'Toto' Schillaci.

Later, the WSL's first-ever CEO, Nikki Doucet is in The Sports Agents studio ahead of a pivotal season for the Women's Super League and Championship, having split from The FA over the summer and with major broadcast deals set to expire at the end of this season.
