Ian Wright really is an absolute gentleman. Telling Nev to keep the shirt on after the banter at the beginning when he said he'd lost his confidence to wear it, proper salt of the earth, caring bloke.
A proper Englishman is our Ian Wright and a great footballer as well.
Neville, you are killing it with The Overlap. The guests are phenomenal. Eddie Hearn is a great interview. Terrific banter.
Thank you!
Neville defo wrote this 😅
@@owenwilliams2474 nah I bet he gets Philip to do his replying.
This week on stick to football, a boxing promoter and clown.
Hi Gary how’s your day going
“I was told I was a silver spoon kid but I told him I made it gold”. Some response that to be fair 🤣
Eddie is unreal at telling a story. What a podcast. Probably the best out there
Quickly becoming my favorite show! Amazing casting and they let the guests TALK! Love it so far!!

I love the relationship between Garry and Jamie. From absolute deadly rivals to being close friends and both so interesting to listen to especially when together. Good to see. Also, Eddie Hearn is an interesting business character
Same with Keane and Wright almost
Football is scripted always been mates
@danieloneill6060 far removed from friends when they played. Respect maybe. That would be begrudged
Great Interview, Eddie always knows how to tell a story
99.9% lies though.
'That's his job.'
Roy Keane.
Jackanory
If it involves money, sure!
Yea. Great bit of football banter.
You can tell that eveyone is genuinely loving Eddie's stories. They are happy to let him talk. He's a legend. Great show!
The gift that keeps on giving ..stick to football 2023 is mint
The thing that makes this show and the panel so great is that despite these guys all being legends of their craft, famous, successful, however you want to describe it. They arent overblown with ego and just come across as decent people that you could easily sit down and have a pint and chat with. Excellent show as always!
Agree. They let the guests speak and as a panel of great pundits it's refreshing. It's not all about them and let the guest tell a story.
U really wanna watch a footballer v Jake Paul?... I respect Jake Paul but they are killing peoples pockets with kindness in hard times.. keep it real 💯
This was just perfect. Great chemistry and Eddie was down to earth, genuine and a great guest.
The little jab at Simon Jordan at the end. Love it 😭😭🤣
Carrager's quick wit'd one liners are class
Scousers for ye mate we love the banter
@@smokey4395 dunno not all of them
@@Kugannmust just be me an carra then mate and every other scouser I no aswel
I work with a scouser and he’s the same, very quick with it 😂
I love football, but these outside footy guest appearances are brilliant. Loved this episode with Eddie. Such interesting stories, and love that all the hosts really let Eddie speak and share his experiences with us.
10/10
Another great overlap Ep! Absolutely loving the new format and Eddie Hearn is always great value in an interview! The banter is quality!
This is rapidly becoming the best sport talk show anywhere.
Gary Neville at face value has always been the Person on the side. But he doesn’t take himself to serious and is a successful businessman now. The fella needs to be applauded.
Really found his niche after the coaching attempt
He's a champagne socialist
Fellaaaaa
@@hnxry_752probably done more through charities and fundraising than you could achieve in 5 lifetimes. You can say champagne socialist which he probably is, but his impact on Manchester is big. Don’t even like him that much but I respect him.
@@probablynot879"charities and fundraising" lmao you mean those nice tax write offs that all champagne socialist celebs do?🤣
Amazing people sitting around the table. Eddie is a great speaker and the conversation was class. Best football podcast on UA-cam. 🎉🎉🎉
Unbelievable work from Gary again, picking guests that fit perfectly and portray what the overlap is all about. Never thought we would see the day Roy Keane is talking about Jake Paul
Roy always comes across brilliantly when talking to people outside of football
Can’t beat these episodes overlap killing it 👏👏👏👏 keep um coming!
Eddie is a legend 😂
@@arturius7534 most love him
The 5 that make up stick to football, are top class and with guest appearances like Eddie Hearn this has become a must watch, thankyou
Neville - Good, likable, down to earth guy which is why The Overlap works. Brilliant Podcast channel.
Interview with Eddie is Gold. Loved every bit of this episode. Quality lads 👌🏿🔥
This is one of the best formats, great guests and good questions. Keep it coming please
Roy couldn’t give a shit, I love it
I never realised how great Eddie Hearn was. He speaks so well and you could listen to him all day. Brilliant interview Gary and co. 👏
What a really entertaining show. And Eddie Hearn was a great guest with amazing stories. Loved it from start to finish!
I could honestly just sit and listen to these talking all day 😊 The perfect podcast 🙌🏻
overlap is one of the best things to watch on youtube right now! i enjoy the whole of each video and the team involved on the table are key! the banter and the chemistry is perfect
Could listen to Eddie Hearn all day long, genuinely interesting and witty with it. Great episode
This is the best series that Sky have ever done by far. Hope they keep them coming.
It’s enjoyable yes! But they done much superior shows back in the 90s and 00s. Depends what age you are tho!
Im loving this series, overlap is real breath of fresh air, miles ahead of anything similar, the banter and chemistry is top drawer!
That was brilliant. So much in common, with his views on coaching kids and parents etc( we are same age). Thoroughly enjoyable that. Good luck with the next editions, it's always a good hour.
People call Eddie the silver spoon kid, probably always will. But you can't deny that he's carved his own path, massively expanded what once was a small regional boxing promotion into the new leading international promotion (since showtime have decided to close doors). But he's the perfect face of a promotion, personable, cutt throat, blunt, but not nasty. He has ten times more humility than his peers like Oscar De La Hoya, Bob Arum... Even Dana White has been downright evil and shady!
Wonder when he'll manage to get Carra VS Neville signed though 😂
You guys are fast becoming my favourite show, great banter & great guests.
Wow, great show. I watched every minute of it! Thanks eddie for being a good sport! Appreciate all you guys on the panel!
This is some of the best content out there online and TV. Class, keep it up! ❤
Love the overlap! Top work as ever Gary. Keep it up and don’t let them change the relaxed format 🙌🏾
This episode was as enjoyable as the last three.
Great job.
My respect for Taylor has gone up by 💯
😂😂
@@brianbussoli1582?
I say this every episode but the friendship between Wrighty and Keano, I absolutely love it.
Eddie like his dad tells a great story! Really enjoyed this one 👏
This is absolutely brilliant, top work Gary and the team. Eddie is so captivating! Best episode to date. #bringeddieback
Could listen to Eddie all day. How he adapted to modern day(streaming), how he handles situations(fury), how challenging he is, the emphasis on kids with sports.
It's all just spot on.
Another spot on interview.
Keep up the great work, Gary.
The best show going on UA-cam. I'm not a boxing fan and had never heard of this gent, but found it incredibly fascinating and entertaining. Keep it up!
Loved the intro showing them all chilling before it began, that needs to stay!
Eddie Hearn has countless amazing stories. And he's only 44! Imagine the stories when he's a grandad. "Gather round..."
Roy just sitting there like: 😐
Been addicted to these since the FA Cup segments. They are an absolute joy to watch.
This is the best show around. Keep the panel the way it is, it's the perfect dynamic. Eddie top bloke aswell.
Brilliant! That Chisora story was had me rolling 😂😂😂
Love this show. The 5 of you have a great chemistry and it's so entertaining. Keep them coming!
I'm not a football fan but I'm a big boxing fan so here for Hearn. Loved the episode for all you guys
what an enjoyable episode of the overlap , Eddie hearn comes across as a great bloke, good banter between all, real entertaining stuff .
It will never stop being funny watching & listening to Keano, Wrighty & Carra mug off Gary Neville.😂
Carra tries too hard, 😂
The Chisora story was top tier.
This was a great podcast, Eddie was really entertaining I remember seeing his dad Barry at Stratford St waiting for the Shenfield train, he looked real slick suited and booted, great huge smile on face, I thought good for you Barry,
Loving the show, brilliantly diverse content each week. Eddie Hearn was an unexpected guest but a really captivating speaker and like in his profession a great entertainer
Absolutely brilliant episode!
What a great guest.
This is fast becoming the best sport channel on UA-cam.
Thanks for this, I loved every minute of it.
Stick to Football you made me google about Eddie Hearn , now i am listening and watching with joy.
Don't get suckered by that salesman lol
The con man
Ignore these Frank Warren bum boys mate. He’s one of the best promoters on the planet. If your after entertainment he brings it
@@deano5112 if you're after big fights he doesn't
Great podcast! Im portuguese and grew up with a lot a brits and lived there for 2 years. Nothing like brit banter and sense of humour! The Chizzora story cracked me up
Got me thinking how amazing Roy would have been at a boxing press conference given thats his first "love" and sport
The crossover to boxing! My favorite episode yet. Stick to football indeed 🔥
This show is just getting better and better, love listening to the various guests and the banter among the whole group is amazing.
We need more than one episode a week! Nev is doing unreal big fan !
Yeah I’m going to need daily uploads please.
How can you not like Eddie Hearn the guy has some great story’s 👌 really enjoyed this.
Phenomenal storytelling by Ed, laughed throughout, especially the part about Chisora 🤣...Very entertaining, and insightful interview as well.💥🥊
These guys put on an absolute brilliant show. The only problem is, the hour or less isn't long enough!
Every single one of you guys bring something to the show and the guest's are brilliant.
If you are having a shit day, you know the overlap will lift your mood
Gary is a great host and I just enjoy the overall chemistry with you guys. Eddie Hearn can chat for days and sell snow to eskimoes, but I have met him and he came across as a decent guy and can take a joke
Eddie is possibly the best sales man ever, has everyone hyped with anything he suggests.
I love this programme, such a fantastic episode and what a nice bloke Eddie is
Great content Gary…you have got the winning formula for these shows!
Eddie dodging questions about getting his own boxers to unionise was like that Neo bullet dodge scene from The Matrix! 😂
Promoters don't want boxers knowing the difference between gross/net and knowing what tax loopholes are.
If Gary stood in a field long enough he'd want the cows to unionise .
Loves a union him.
@mosesjuice2 what's wrong with that?
@@admiralwilliambrown Nothing in particular. He just always brings them up.
I was wondering why they didn't talk about football at all, but I realised its been the international break! Brilliant getting another sport, and especially Eddie on here to fill that instead of just taking a break.
That was brilliant, could listen to him all day, the only tiny negative, it was only an hour long. 👏👏👏
Would not have complained if this episode went on for another hour or so. It flew by. Yet again another superb watch. Great viewing
Honestly load of boxing fans give Eddie stick, but if you was a young boxer just climbing the ranks, Eddie would be the dream promotor.
He's literally just said, tough shit... he's going for UA-camrs. Boxing is dying because of people like him and he doesn't give a f***
@@danmancmufcBoxing has been dying since the 70s mate.
Definitely my favourite show now. Love the fact that y'all including personalities from other sports as well. Keep it up!
Absolute banger of an interview
best episode so far, just got round to watching it could listen for hours
Man I just can't have only one episode per week ! this is pure gold ❤
Best sports show on the internet. You should never dilute it by taking it to TV. This format is perfect and would never work on TV
Great watch, good people around the table having a honest conversation 🤝🔑🫶🏻
4PM UK time is the best time!!
Thank you Dave for the daily uploads❤
Oh just when you thought this couldn't get better they bring Eddie hearn on . What a podcast guys amazing
Man that was a thoroughly enjoyable interview. My only complaint is that it was too short. Don’t be shy of having these be 2 hours long.
Wow what a show ! Overlap no.1 by far ! Thanks to all for making this available 😊
I enjoyed that way more than I thought I would. Eddie Hearn is a legend with a great personality too.
You just know this will be class 😂
Top billing!! These are absolute gold!! Gary's top is 'offside' fantastic! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He gets well rinsed Gary and takes it all in his stride. Just class. 👏👏
This was phenomenal. Magnificent guest and cast. I'm a big fan of this show and your content is phenomenal. The whole conversation was magnificent. Legends. 👏👏💪❤⚽️🥊🔝
Quality, wat a show loved every minute 👌
Man the overlap is in a league of its own 👏👏
Eddie is such a good story teller
Really enjoyed that, The great thing about this is that you let the guest speak. Small thing but surprising how little that actually happens. Love it.
Great stuff. Eddie can talk 24/7 and just hypnotize's you in.
Bloody 'ell haven't seen Eddie on anything for ages. Koogz is hating it!!! Good get lads
Koogs has over 100 interviews with Hearn, why would he be mad about him doing an interview with Football legends
He does about 100 interviews a week
@@isaacnewton3514 He's hating not having Eddie on every other day hiking up the views.
@@JW-db8bz He's been pretty dark for the last 2 weeks. Had nothing to promote...
@@isaacnewton3514it was a joke settle down lad
Love Eddie Hearn. Such an amazing storyteller. Love this show.
I love football and boxing, and could not believe when this came up in my notifications! Fantastic, my favourite people around one table and Carra ❤😉
Another brilliant episode of The Overlap.
Eddie Hearn = the most charismatic sports personality on the planet.
Fantastic content as always from the overlap. Eddie would be a top guest for the 1-1 with Gary.
