Sunday 20 April 2008 – Joe Calzaghe v Bernard Hopkins
In the early hours of Sunday, Joe Calzaghe fights Bernard Hopkins in Las Vegas.
From 3.00am (UK time), BBC Radio 5 Live brings full coverage of this exciting night of boxing. Mike Costello is joined by three-time World Champion Duke McKenzie in the studio, with Ronald McIntosh reporting ringside.
Radio 5 Live is the place to be for build-up throughout the week, blow-by-blow commentary on the night and comprehensive post-fight reaction.
The Light Heavyweight title bout looks set to be a spectacular contest in a highly charged atmosphere with super-middleweight king Calzaghe, undefeated in 44 fights, keen to make an impact in a new weight division against Hopkins, who has lost just four of his 54 fights.
Listen to 5 Live via digital radio, digital television and online at bbc.co.uk/5live.
In addition, from 6.30pm on the evening of Saturday 19 April, BBC Radio Wales hosts Calzaghe Fight Night, a special evening of programmes in the run-up to the big fight that delves into the Joe Calzaghe story and his rise to prominence. See press release.
