The passing of 'The Greatest', Liam Smith's targets, the weighty issue of Tony Bellew v David Haye and more... Here's Jamie.
Is Muhammad Ali the greatest fighter of all time?
He's certainly the most important. He named himself 'The Greatest' and you'd have to say he went above and beyond what anybody else achieved. He transcended the sport. Was he the greatest boxer ever? Maybe not, but he did so much for the sport, crossing into other areas and changing people's views.
He was a phenomenal human being. There have been things said about him which were controversial but I think the point he was trying to get at was a great message. Some of the things that have come up on social media, there were some fantastic things he said and did - especially the quotes he came out with. They will live forever and ever.
Is Liam Smith ready to step up against the likes of Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez and Miguel Cotto?
I really rate Liam Smith. I think he's a fantastic fighter. He can definitely go up there and mix it. We don't really know he's ready for it for sure even though he holds a world title, because he hasn't fought at that level yet. We won't truly know until he's in there but I think he's good enough to get in there and compete. Whether he's good enough to beat them, he's got to prove.
It's not for a want of trying that they aren't happening yet. I know for a fact that he's trying to get them set up and I'd love to see those sort of fights. Cotto for me is the one because that would be a young champion coming through against a former champion who's probably coming towards the end of his career. Those fights happen through the generations. Canelo is a much tougher ask but it's definitely not out of Smith's grasp. I'm sure he wants the chance to try and prove it.
What are your early impressions of the Tony Bellew v David Haye saga?
I think it's a great match-up. Haye is obviously a long way from his cruiserweight days and has been a heavyweight for a long time. I'm sure it wouldn't be at cruiserweight but I'm sure during negotiations, the weight would be an issue and they'd be trying to get Haye down to as light as possible.
Haye weighed in at his heaviest ever since making his comeback. He's nowhere near what you'd call fat but he's carrying more weight than he did during his cruiserweight days, when he was much leaner. It's conceivable he could get to 15st and still be healthy. They both carry tremendous power and Bellew will grow from being world champion - we'll see the best of him now because it improves you as a fighter. It's an intriguing fight and one I'd welcome.
Which young British fighter are you most excited about right now?
If we're talking about someone who's up and coming but yet to box for titles, I'd have to go with super-featherweight Zelfa Barrett. He's 10-0 and is looking really impressive. He looks like his power and timing is improving and he can adapt his style to deal with different opponents, which is always a good sign with a prospect.
Obviously, we'll find out as he steps up if he's got what it takes but after watching him from an early stage and seeing how he's progressing and knowing he's got his uncle (former European welterweight champion) Pat Barrett and Steve Wood on his team, I think he's someone we're going to be hearing a lot more about in the future.
What will you remember as the funniest Ali moment?
There were so many but the one that will always tickle me was ahead of the 'Rumble in the Jungle' where he antagonised George Foreman so much that he ended up being chased out of the gym. You see it on the documentary When We Were Kings that Ali is in there screaming and shouting while Foreman is trying to train and eventually Foreman turns around and chases him out of the gym.
There are so many great moments to pick from but that one just makes me chuckle - Ali pushing Foreman to the point of physically running after him.
