Over 2 years in the making, ESPN and Top Rank Boxing are launching a premium, access-driven docuseries that offers an inside look into the full boxing ecosystem—not just the fights and fighters. ? This vision was set by Todd duBoef as part of our strategy to create transparency and access, bringing our fans closer to the action they love while attracting new ones through non-traditional narratives -- the anguish of defeat, the complexities of matchmaking and the characters that give us as much drama outside the ring as inside of it. As soon as Todd told me about this ambitious project - I was hooked and am honored to play a role in helping bring it to life. A massive thank you to Words + Pictures and Aaron Cohen for shaping this vision into reality. Special shoutout to the unsung heroes who spent countless hours on the road and in the edit bay—Oliver Anderson, Louis Burgdorf, Janette Lynott, Matt Chase, Daniel Amigone, Ted Mahoney, Jon Jordan, and so many others. And of course, to Alex Adeyanju, the calmest and coolest creative director I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Don’t miss the premiere on October 7th on ESPN+ ????
?? Very excited to finally get this project out into the wild. ?? ?? Coming soon to ESPN+ and ESPN linear networks, a really unique look behind the scenes of the sweet science. ??
