    Jul 8 2026
    Former world cruiserweight champion Johnny Nelson joins Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons for an unmissable episode of Fight Your Corner. Johnny explains why he couldn't let Naseem Hamed's criticism of legendary trainer Brendan Ingle go unanswered and reveals the support he's received from people across his home city of Sheffield. Tony reveals whether he would fight Anthony Joshua if he were still actoive today, why he wants to help AJ rediscover his best form, and recalls the heartbreaking defeat that left him in tears. The pair also revisit Tony's rivalry with David Haye, including how he made the fight happen, how he got under Haye's skin during The Gloves Are Off, and stopped 'The Hayemaker' landing a world exclusive after their first fight. Elsewhere, Johnny explains why he believes Tony was technically superior to Oleksandr Usyk, debates who could finally beat the heavyweight king, and he and Tony give their verdict on a potential Moses Itauma vs Daniel Dubois showdown. He also shares incredible stories from his own career, including having guns pointed at him in Brazil while carrying £30,000 in cash, why he never believed Brendan Ingle when he predicted he'd become world champion and how Barry Hearn helped secure him a financial windfall after retirement. Johnny also fires back at Ben Shalom's recent criticism of him, questions why fighters are leaving Boxxer, and explains why he's sceptical that Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury will ever happen. ───────────────────────────── 🏆 LINKS Fight Your Corner is brought to you by Midnite, the betting app that's built different: https://www.midnite.com/ 18+, please gamble responsibly. ───────────────────────────── 📑CHAPTERS 00:00 Welcome To Fight Your Corner 03:02 Brendan Ingle Called Johnny "An Idiot" 04:35 How Ingle Convinced Johnny He'd Become A World Champion 07:07 Johnny On Defeat, Fear & Being Held At Gunpoint In Brazil 14:15 The Fight That Broke Tony Bellew's Heart 16:40 How Tony Got Under David Haye's Skin 21:00 Would Tony Fight Anthony Joshua Today? 23:00 Was Tony Really More Technical Than Oleksandr Usyk? 26:40 Could Moses Itauma Beat Oleksandr Usyk Or Daniel Dubois? 32:10 Johnny Nelson Opens Up On Prince Naseem Hamed 38:45 Midnite Ultimate Prediction: Moses Itauma vs Filip Hrgović 42:06 Johnny Questions Why Fighters Are Leaving Ben Shalom 50:40 Inside The Meeting Beween Turki Alalshikh, Johnny & Charlie 53:53 Could Dana White Be Good For Boxing? 55:07 Call Them Out: Johnny Nelson On Boxing's Aftercare Problem ───────────────────────────── 📲 FOLLOW FIGHT YOUR CORNER YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Fightyourcorner IG: https://www.instagram.com/fightyourcornerpod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fightyourcornerpod Linktree: https://linktr.ee/fightyourcorner Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Eddie Hall BLASTS Boxing Fans, RIPS INTO Jake Paul & Reveals SHOCKING Strongman Diet
    Jul 2 2026
    This week on Fight Your Corner, Tony Bellew and Charlie Parsons are joined by the World's Strongest Man himself — Eddie Hall — fresh off his fight against Tommy Fury at Misfits Boxing. Eddie opens up about the psychological darkness behind his legendary 500KG deadlift world record, the extreme hypnotherapy tricks he used to get into the right headspace, and what actually happened to his body in the minutes after it went up. He also breaks down what it truly takes to be the strongest man on Earth — the insane force-feeding diet, 200KG bodyweight, sleeping in a hyperbaric chamber and why winning World's Strongest Man nearly broke him. Plus, Eddie calls out boxing fans as the worst fans in sport, shares why Francis Ngannou genuinely scares him, reveals his MMA world title ambitions, and drops a bombshell: he'd fight the Paul Brothers 2-on-1 in a cage. Tony gives his ringside verdict on Eddie vs Tommy Fury, and the panel debates where Misfits Boxing belongs: is it sport, entertainment, or something in between? ───────────────────────────── Fight Your Corner is brought to you by Midnite, the betting app that's built different: https://www.midnite.com/ 18+, please gamble responsibly. ───────────────────────────── 📲 FOLLOW FIGHT YOUR CORNER YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Fightyourcorner IG: https://www.instagram.com/fightyourcornerpod TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fightyourcornerpod Linktree: https://linktr.ee/fightyourcorner Learn more about your ad choices.

He also opens up on whether his own family want him stepping into the ring at this stage of his life.

Elsewhere, he discusses whether Tyson should continue fighting, the role boxing plays in his son's mental health, why nobody in the Fury family should be sharing a ring with Darren Till and what comes next for Tommy Fury following his victory over Eddie Hall. There's also a fascinating look back at some of boxing's greatest names, as John explains why he idolised Mike Tyson, while Tony shares the advice the former undisputed heavyweight champion once gave him over dinner. They also discuss Frank Bruno's popularity, how he would have fared in today's heavyweight division and the qualities that made him a national treasure.Finally, John opens up about the challenges he faced growing up as part of the travelling community, why family remains the most important thing in his life and what it's really like starring in Netflix's At Home With The Furys.
