Freddy Flintoff primed for boxing debut

Ahead of his boxing debut against American heavyweight Richard Dawson, ex-England cricketer Andrew Flintoff says he has never taken on such a big challenge.

Flintoff, who has shed three-and-a-half stone in training for this bout, describes his journey to fitness as "mental, emotional and harder than I ever could have expected."

BBC Sport's Olly Foster went to meet Flintoff at his weigh-in ahead of the fight in Manchester on Friday.
