What a journey Steven Ward has been on. Here, he talks to Tris Dixon about his fascinating career, which even included a fight in Dubai against Thor, but a career that only finished a couple of weeks ago following his defeat to Cuban Mike Perez.

Ward talks to Tris Dixon about his recent all-Belfast clash with his friend, Tommy McCarthy, trying to be a professional fighter while holding down a full-time job, and why he is embracing a life after boxing, while acknowledging the things he will miss about the sport.

This is great stuff.
