This episode opens with a breakdown of Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua, starting with the undercard and moving into the main event. We talk about what really happened in the ring, how much credit Anthony Joshua deserves for the stoppage, and whether the loss actually hurts Jake Paul’s stock and drawing power.
We also run through Jake Paul’s purses throughout his boxing career, looking at how much money he’s generated, how the business model has evolved, and whether this lane is still sustainable.
The conversation then shifts to Terence Crawford’s retirement, which reopened debate about how greatness should be judged in boxing. Crawford retired undefeated and 3x undisputed after beating the top man in his division, raising the uncomfortable question: is that enough? We examine whether legacy is built through long reigns and title defenses, or by beating the best and moving on.
We dive into Crawford’s career being built on climbing, not sitting, why that approach challenges traditional boxing standards, and why his résumé still sparks debate. A rapid-fire comparison to Hall of Fame greats turns the discussion up.
The episode also covers Oscar De La Hoya’s criticism of Crawford’s résumé, the pushback from Bernie the Boxer on the Mill City Podcast, and a breakdown of Bill Haney’s claim that Team Haney has “sent everyone an offer.” We explain why offers don’t always mean negotiations and why in boxing, optics aren’t the same as signed contracts.

We start with the Teofimo Lopez vs Shakur Stevenson press conference and break down the energy between both fighters, especially why Teofimo’s demeanor felt different from what fans are used to seeing. From body language to tone, we talk about what stood out and how it affects the buildup to one of boxing’s biggest fights.
From there, we get into Shakur Stevenson’s appearance on The Breakfast Club, his thoughts on the fight, the criticism around his style, and how he sees himself at the top of the sport. That leads into a conversation about a potential Shakur vs Devin Haney fight at 147 and whether it actually makes sense. We also touch on Rolly Romero making it clear he wants nothing to do with Devin Haney and why that comment caught so much attention.
Next, we shift to title movement across the divisions, starting with O’Shaquie Foster holding down the WBC title at 130 while vacating at 135, then Stephen Fulton vacating at 126 and opening the door for Carrington vs Castro to get upgraded.
We then dive into the situation between Keyshawn Davis and Richardson Hitchins, the tension surrounding them, and Tim Bradley weighing in on their negotiations. Bradley also revealed that Keyshawn Davis and trainer Brian BoMac McIntyre are no longer working together, which added a whole new wrinkle to the conversation. From there, we talk about Hitchins taking the Ortiz fight and his decision to re-sign with Matchroom Boxing.
To wrap things up, we react to BoxingScene’s list of the best jabs among active fighters and finish with Ring Magazine’s pound-for-pound list of the 21st century, breaking down why these rankings always spark debate.
This episode is a fun, honest conversation about the fights, the moves, and the narratives shaping boxing right now.

We open with hometown pride as O’Shaquie “Shock” Foster dominates Stephen “Scooter” Fulton. We break down Fulton missing weight at 130, the WBC switching the bout to a WBC Interim Lightweight Title (135) fight, and how the buildup disrespected Shock before he delivered a masterclass.Next, we dig into the week’s biggest shocker: Janibek Alimkhanuly failing a VADA test, forcing Erislandy Lara to face a late replacement instead of unifying the middleweight titles.
