Was Oleksandr Usyk's split-decision victory over Tyson Fury for
the undisputed heavyweight crown the correct decision? Should the
referee have stopped the fight in the 9th? Does boxing need
VAR?...

The Sports Agents brings you a bonus interview with former star
referee and judge, Ian John-Lewis, days before
the eagerly anticipated rematch between Josh Taylor and Jack
Catterall - a fight described as the 'biggest robbery in boxing
history', where Ian was one of the two judges who scored it in
favour of Taylor... and never worked for the British Boxing Board
of Control again.

In this bonus episode, Gabby & Mark explore how elite fights
are actually scored, what influences the decision to let a boxer
continue and Ian's long drawn-out court battle to clear his name.
