Sep 25, 2019, 04:00 PM


To kick-off season two, Tris Dixon is in Las Vegas where he spent time with veteran Top Rank matchmaker Bruce Trampler. For some 40 years, Trampler has been one of Bob Arum's right-hand men, working with the likes of Muhammad Ali, Manny Pacquiao, Floyd Mayweather, George Foreman and Oscar De La Hoya. Bruce is one of the most popular guys in the sport, though he doesn't receive much of the spotlight for his work because he would prefer it to be shone on the fighters. But here, in a rare in depth interview, he talks about his start in boxing, his mentors, the long relationships he's had in the sport, what it's like working with Arum, how he got behind Foreman's incredible comeback, what happened between Arum and rival Don King at Dan Goossen's funeral and much more besides. This episode is brought to you in association with Hanson Lee Resourcing and Delco Safety Compliance.
