Eleanor Oldroyd debates Mayweather v McGregor, bullying and appreciating great athletes. Guests include cyclist Callum Skinner, boxer Anthony Crolla and triathlete Vicky Holland.

Eleanor Oldroyd presents the sport debate you won't hear anywhere else. As Floyd Mayweather v Conor McGregor draws ever closer, can it legitimately be seen as one of the greatest events in sporting history? Or one of the biggest farces? And what does it mean for other sports?

This week, footballer, Eniola Aluko accused England head coach Mark Sampson of bullying and discrimination. Sampson denies the allegations. But how do coaches ensure they don't cross the line between motivating athletes and bullying them?

And following record England goal scorer Wayne Rooney's announcing his retirement from international football, do we under appreciate great British athletes?

Joining Eleanor to discuss these and more are: Olympic champion cyclist, Callum Skinner, boxer, Anthony Crolla and Rio 2016 bronze medal-winning triathlete, Vicky Holland. Plus a look ahead to this weekend's action and cricket updates.
