Last week, we discussed crime boss Daniel Kinahan's involvement in the upcoming fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua and the strong political response in Ireland.

Various figures in boxing, including the promoter Bob Arum, have since come out in defence of Kinahan.

New York-based sports journalist and Irish Times columnist Dave Hannigan is a fan of boxing.

He joined us on The Last Word to discuss the sport's history of corruption and links to crime.
