About this episode
In 1982, boxing was held at the Sydney Opera House for the first and final time. Titus is joined by Anthony Cocks, who tells the story of the clash between Alex Temelkov and Ken Salisbury, which saw brawls in the ring and in the stands.
They also discuss his new book The Brawl at the Sydney Opera House: And Other Aussie Boxing Yarns, which is on sale now.
