5 things we NEED to see in Boxing THIS YEAR! (Please!!šŸ™šŸ½) | SOFA SENSEI’S #50
2023 was a crazy year in Boxing and my wish for 2024 is to make it bigger and better. That's why, I want to see: 1. An end to the Conor Benn saga. Get in front of the board and get the issue resolved so we can see you in the big fights we all want! 2. The Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World keep and defend their undisputed title. Forget stripping them and degrading the outside belts. When we've figured out #1 in the sport - let him fight whoever is next for the whole Crown. One belt, one face, one name. 3. The Dream vs Tank. I'd love to see Gervonta Davis fight Devin Haney. It's the test they both need and the mega-fight the fans want. 4. Saudi energy replicated across the sport. We know what can be done with coordinated effort. Everyone else, take note! 5. More shoulder content. I miss All Access. I miss 24/7. I love UFC Countdown and Embedded shows - more of that please. What do you want to see more of in Boxing this year? Let me know in the comments!

Why celebration is the most powerful form of resistance | Catherine Joy White | Before Our Friends Die #41
Today you join us for a special episode of Before Our Friends Die. We’re hosting a JADE Conversation (Justice, Anti-Racism against Discrimination and the fight for its Elimination) with Catherine Joy White and Dr Marcella Daye in association with the GEM Network. Catherine Joy White is a gender advisor for the United Nations, writer, actor and filmmaker. She grew up between Northampton, Yorkshire and Wales before moving to Paris, Geneva and back to Paris again. She holds degrees from the University of Warwick and the University of Oxford. In 2022, she was named on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list and our conversation centres mostly around her new book, Threads of Gold: A Celebration of Black Womanhood, which you can purchase here: https://amzn.eu/d/9Ywxfcj Key moments from the book which is an autobiographical anthropology of hidden, inspiring acts of resistance from Black Women, include how Rosa Parks wasn’t the first person to refuse to sit at the back of the bus - that moment belongs to Claudette Colvin - but Colvin’s face didn’t fit the moment. She was dark skin, pregnant out of marriage and a teenager. Our conversation explores how women of colour can contend with White Power; the weight of being ā€œthe first; the importance of knowing how and when to rest and why celebration is in itself an act of resistance. Ultimately, Cat’s work demonstrates the impact of intergenerational communities that share knowledge and wisdom to help us develop our own identities. So let us know if it made you think differently about your past, present and future. To hear more from Marcella, check out her episode of Before Our Friends Die: https://youtu.be/KxyhZDw1Ybc?si=tUVIijo5ueNb2tSa Our JADE Conversation with the University of Cambridge’s FIRST Black Professor, Jason Arday is available here: https://youtu.be/AEqLkl-gZCA?si=sD-NQLJJBKHosWGa Connect with Catherine on Instagram: https://instagram.com/catherinejoywhite Engage, comment, like, share and let us know your thoughts.
