Han vs Holm II: A WBA lightweight rematch that a headbutt interrupted in round seven. Serrano vs Hanson: Amanda Serrano chases the all-time KO record against Germany's Cheyenne Hanson. Juarez vs Valle: Two champions from two weight classes collide at junior flyweight. Robinson vs Spencer: Unified middleweight titles on the line in a crossroads fight.

Between the Rounds previews every title fight — the tactics, the matchmaking, and the question nobody's asking yet: is this a platform or a moment?

Description: Shauna Browne lost six and a half years to injuries and addiction. Five operations. Three arm surgeries. A surgeon who told her she'd never box again.

She came back, got sober, won the Irish Elite National Championship, and turned pro at 30. She's sparred Katie Taylor for the last two Serrano fights and worked with Terri Harper ahead of the Dubois unification. At 7-1, she believes she's two fights from a world title.

In this conversation, Shauna talks with Sarah Cunningham about Clonmel, the coach who shaped her, what sobriety gave her that boxing couldn't, the full context behind the Elif Nur Turhan loss that nobody understood at the time, what she sees inside world-level camps, the business reality of women's boxing, and why every fighter at 135 lbs should be worried.

This episode is part of the Unfinished Business series — long-form conversations exploring performance, career, and the decisions that shape a fighter's path.

The Inside Camp season finale. My last week in the Boxing Ireland High Performance programme before heading back to New York.

I came back from Poland with a list of things to sharpen. Then I rolled my ankle in the final session. We adapted. Tailored pads. Bag work. Stretched the rules a little.

This was the first week the full squad was back together — Brazil, Poland, Ulster. Lighter sessions.

And in the middle of it all, a moment with Michaela Walsh I won't forget.

Ten weeks ago I walked into this programme. I'm leaving with more than I could have ever hoped for.

Season One of Inside Camp closes here.

But the next round is already calling.

Week 9 of Inside Camp covers the Felix Stamm tournament in Poland, international sparring with Poland and Great Britain, corner work with the Head Coach, and what it means to level up without always getting the win.

Between the Rounds is a content platform exploring the strategy, preparation, and decision-making that shape performance — in sport, business, and careers.

In this episode, I talk about the decision to evict the imposter and protect my energy. I break down high-intensity sparring sessions where I stopped surviving and started thinking—including a technical micro-adjustment that was eight weeks in the making. No more spiraling. The preparation is done. Now, we perform.

Steven O'Rourke has coached fighters for over 30 years out of O'Rourke's Gym in Inchicore, Dublin. In this conversation he reveals how he reads a fighter's mental state before they know something's wrong, the coded combination system he uses mid-fight, why he builds trust before technique, and how he's kept the father-coach dynamic with his son Ryan healthy when so many others fall apart.

Whether you're a boxer, a coach, or someone interested in performance under pressure.  this is the side of the sport you never see.

In this episode: inside O'Rourke's Gym, building mental strength, coaching Ryan from six months old, when the father-coach line gets dangerous, what Steven saw in me as a fighter, who earns his coaching, "it's all in your head," task-based sparring, opponent study and game plans, code names for combinations, corner style between rounds, when a fighter stops listening, coaching women, and the future of the O'Rourke legacy.

Week 6 of camp brought a change of pace. After being sidelined by illness , Sarah explores the "entry fee" of boxing—the grueling work required to close the distance and land clean shots.

In this episode, we dive into:

• The Mastery of Adjustment: Why coaches with decades of experience are still evolving alongside their fighters.
• Don't Step Back: The common instinct to retreat after a success and why it forces you to pay the "entry fee" all over again.
• Predictability is a Trap: Why feeling comfortable in your rhythm usually means your opponent is comfortable too.
• The Corporate Bridge: How retreating after progress in business forces you to constantly rebuild your network from scratch.

Week 5. Halfway through camp. The urge to prove progress is real — but it leads to noise, not technique.

This episode covers the deliberate choice to slow down.

Patience isn’t passive. It’s the most deliberate, conscious, disciplined choice you can make.

Inside Camp is a weekly series documenting my 10-week High Performance training camp with Boxing Ireland's national squad

Fresh off week two of intensive training camp with Team Ireland, I’m sharing the four mental shifts that changed everything for me this week. We dive into the "honest life" of a training camp, where every partner is a riddle to solve and every drill is a task in intentionality.

In this episode:

• Why you must force yourself into uncomfortable exchanges to actually grow.
• The coach's mantra: "Box off a plan, not off emotion."
• How physical tension makes us slower and less effective—in and out of the ring.

In this episode, Rich breaks down what the military taught him about pressure, how he went from West Point to elite coaching, what actually happens in the 60 seconds between rounds, why Roy Jones Jr. is his favourite fighter, and a philosophy on winning and losing that reframes how every competitor should think about results.

Today, we’re joined by Stacia Suttles, a four-time Team USA boxer and 2024 Olympic alternate who is now carving out her own space as a pro athlete and advocate.

While the Olympics only became a clear goal later in her career, Stacia has spent years mastering her craft and now serves as an athlete rep on the USA Boxing Board of Directors to help others navigate the sport.

We talk about her move to train with Eric Harding, competing in the Team Boxing League, and why she started her own academy to help kids develop the emotional tools she had to find for herself.

This isn’t just about boxing; it’s a conversation about the big decisions, the mental resets, and the "God’s plan" mindset that keeps an elite athlete grounded.

In this episode, we talk about:

• The shift from "just having fun" to realizing she had Olympic potential.

• How the book The Four Agreements helped her navigate a dark period in her career.

• The "pros and cons" list she used to decide if turning pro was the right move.

• Why she believes fighters should be careful about rushing into professional contracts.

• Fighting for "Little Stacia": Staying authentic in a high-pressure industry.

In this solo ep I do a deep dive on MVPs gamble. If we say there is "no functional difference" between male and female athletes, why are we building a separate brand? Is this a launchpad, or a silo that lets the biggest gatekeepers (Riyadh Season & TKO) off the hook?

Inside the Episode:

• The "No Functional Difference" Paradox.
• The Power Vacuum: Why exclusion in Riyadh created the MVPW opening.

In this episode of Between the Rounds, we explore the "Strategy in Motion" that defines elite performance. I share the lessons I learned getting caught by things I should have seen coming and how I’ve translated those "tells" into a clinical advantage in business and leadership.

We discuss:

• The Physics of a Tell: Why watching the shoulders and feet provides more data than watching the gloves.
• Corporate Pattern Recognition: Identifying the three most common signals that a deal or a team is losing momentum.
• The Transition from Reaction to Preparation: How to decode the room before the room reads you.

Performance isn’t decided during the exchange; it’s decided in the observation, the adjustment, and the preparation.

It’s decided Between the Rounds.

In this episode of Between the Rounds:

Tiah-Mai Ayton: The 19-year-old phenom goes the distance for the first time. We look at why this "honest journey" is exactly what her development needed. 

Molly McCann: "Meatball" moves to 3-0. We analyze her transition from MMA to the squared circle and that dangerous overhand. 

Sandy Ryan: A two-weight world champion... with one hand. Sandy breaks down how she survived seven rounds with a broken right hand to secure the WBC Super Lightweight title.

Is Caroline Dubois the next big thing, or is the hype moving faster than her resume?

In this episode:

• The Vegas Lens: Henry shares why the pro ranks view Dubois differently than the amateurs.
• Matchmaking Strategy: Analyzing MVP’s investment in the London card.

• The "Unseen" Fight: How mental resilience defines the "underdog" path for Terri Harper.

Welcome to Between the Rounds. Performance isn’t built in the spotlight—it’s built in the minutes no one is watching: in gruelling training camps, during the rounds of sparring that break you down, and in the high-stakes sixty seconds between rounds when you have to adjust or fail.

Hosted by Sarah Cunningham—an elite amateur boxer and former Managing Director of a NYC creative agency—this show explores the intersection of elite sport and high-level business strategy.

In this introductory episode, Sarah breaks down the "unseen fight" and shares why the most honest insights don't come after a victory, but in the middle of the work when the uncertainty is raw.

What to expect from this series:

• Technical Breakdowns: Going beyond the highlights to the strategy that matters.
• Camp Access: Real-time insights into the grind of elite preparation.
• The Business of Performance: How the lessons of the ring apply to careers and leadership.

The lens is boxing, but the lessons apply everywhere.
