VIDEO: Katie Taylor v Jack Whitehall is the boxing clash you never thought you’d see

Tony Cuddihy

Poor wee lamb.

Jack Whitehall is trying to build anticipation ahead of the Olympic Games in Rio, and part of his job description was to come face-to-face with Katie Taylor and Joe Ward in the ring.

“I’d like to think that watching these films will equip the British public with the knowledge they need to enjoy the Games…and hopefully they won’t be too distracted by my athletic physique in a pair of swimming trunks.”

(Warning: Only one of these people is a professional actor and comedian. May cause you to cringe in parts.)
