show moreHe was 24 years old, 24-1 with 14 KOs, on a four-year winning streak, and next in line for a shot at the IBF super lightweight championship. That's when a doctor told him he had to quit boxing.
Former No. 1 contender Andy Nance joined us to talk about the devastation of seeing his sensational career struck down by a medical issue, and what it took to start over in a completely different direction.
This is an exceptionally compelling conversation with a California Boxing Hall of Famer who has resurrected himself as a boxing manager and one of the West Coast's most-respective matchmakers.
Our interview with Andy Nance is preceded by John J. Raspanti's postmortem of Deontay Wilder's one-round massacre of Bermain Stiverne, a thorough analysis of an intriguing heavyweight division, and other topics, including Shawn Porter's rough win over Adrian Granados, and Mikey Garcia's potential showdown with Jorge Linares.
We also get another interesting report from British correspondent Paul McLaughlin about the deep, lively boxing scene in the United Kingdom.
Dennis Taylor is host of The Ringside Boxing Show, editor-publisher of www.ringsideboxingshow.com, and co-author (with John J. Raspanti) of the West Coast Boxing Hall of Fame's 2017 Book of the Year, "Intimate Warfare: The True Story of the Arturo Gatti and Micky Ward Boxing Trilogy," currently on Amazon's Bestsellers list.
