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. We cover what Janibek tested positive for and how this impacts the middleweight division going forward.We recap the entire Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz vs Lamont Roach Jr card, the knockdown, the point deduction, and the controversial draw that has fans debating who really won and whether the judges got it wrong.Then we break down Frank Martin calling out Richardson Hitchins at 140 and what that matchup would mean for the super-lightweight division.We also hit the politics of boxing: Terence Crawford stripped by the WBC, his viral IG Live reaction, Errol Spence’s comments, and Floyd Mayweather’s long-standing criticism of sanctioning bodies and championship belts.We close with the massive announcement: Teófimo López vs Shakur Stevenson is officially set, and we dive into the styles, stakes, and early reactions to one of the biggest fights in boxing.

The guys are back with another heavy episode, starting with the new Ring Magazine pound-for-pound rankings — and Devin Haney finally cracking the top ten. Bernie The Boxer jumped on Mill City and argued that Shakur Stevenson should be ranked above Haney, so we break down his points and give our own takes on where both fighters really stand right now.Since we were already talking Shakur, we got into his comments after Abdullah Mason’s win — calling Abdullah a “baby” and saying not to rush him. Abdullah Mason fired back on Sean Zittel’s channel, so we look at both sides and talk about whether Shakur is giving game or trying to sun a rising star.From there, we move into Bill Haney calling out Rolly Romero — also on Sean Zittel’s channel — and what that means for the Haney family’s moves at 147. With Rolly holding the WBA welterweight belt, we break down how realistic that fight is and what the Haneys are trying to position themselves for in the division.Then we preview this weekend’s PBC card:Lamont Roach vs Isaac “Pitbull” Cruz and O’Shaquie Foster vs Stephen Fulton.We look at the styles, make our predictions, and talk about what each fight means for both divisions. Lamont Roach went on Nightcap with Shannon Sharpe and Ochocinco saying he plans to stand in the pocket with Pitbull Cruz — so we break down whether that’s smart or suicidal, and who that game plan really favors.We close the episode asking who has more to lose at this stage of their career — Lamont Roach or O’Shaquie Foster. Two different fights, two different paths, but both at a crossroads that could change their whole future.#LamontRoach #OshaquieFoster #ShakurStevenson #DevinHaney #ErislandyLara #Janibek #SugarShaneMosleyJr #JesusRamos #PitbullCruz #BoxingPodcast #PBC #AmazonPrime #FightWeek #RollyRomero #BillHaney #ShawnZatel #WBABantamweightTitle #AbdulaMaysan #RingMagazine #podcast #boxer #boxing #sports #boxingnews

The guys are back this episode breaking down the entire Ring IV card and one of the busiest weeks in boxing. We start with Devin Haney’s masterclass over Brian Norman Jr, a dominant performance with a second-round knockdown, complete control, and still somehow labeled “boring.” Eddie Hearn said the fight lacked excitement, and Andre Ward called the 114–113 scorecard “egregious.” We talk about how a fighter can dominate and still be seen as underperforming.
We move to Abdullah Mason vs Sam Noakes and how Mason dug deep to grind out a tough win. Then we review Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez vs Fernando “Puma” Martinez and discuss whether Bam is now top two or three on the pound-for-pound list.
Next, we break down David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde. Benavidez handled business at 175, but immediately announced he’s moving up to cruiserweight for a potential fight with Gilberto “Zurdo” Ramírez. We discuss the risks of skipping the entire light heavyweight division, whether he’s missing big fights, and if Zurdo is avoiding Jai Opetaia by choosing Benavidez instead.
Ryan Garcia also announced his fight with Mario Barrios for the WBC welterweight title. We talk about what that means for his future, what it sets up at 147, and how many title chances he’s already had.
And then Jake Paul vs Anthony Joshua gets announced… one of the wildest matchups in boxing. We react to what this means for AJ’s mindset, legacy, and where he truly is in his career.
We close with Canelo’s interview on TV Azteca, where he said he plans to come back and rematch Terence Crawford. We break down why he wants that fight again and whether it’s the right move given all the other options he had.

Q was out again this week, so it was Val, Ced, and Macc from Stay Ready Boxing TV holding things down.We kicked off the episode with a new segment called “Who’s Side You On?” reacting to Vergil Ortiz Jr. on the Jamaal Harris Podcast with Norbes, where Vergil said he feels he can fight whoever he wants at 154 and doesn’t need to run straight into a fight with Jaron “Boots” Ennis. We broke down whether he’s talking tough or speaking facts.We also got into Joe Calzaghe’s recent comments claiming Canelo Álvarez and Terence Crawford shouldn’t be considered all-time greats at super middleweight. We debated whether Calzaghe has a point or if he’s reaching.Then we reacted to Anthony Joshua vs Jake Paul is in early talks. We discussed what it means for AJ’s legacy if he signs to fight someone still seen as a prospect, and what it says about Jake Paul’s confidence and matchmaking if he really steps in with a former unified heavyweight champion.During the episode, undefeated WBO & IBF super middleweight champion Shadasia Green called in. We cleared the air, talked about her future, and she spoke on Claressa Shields, Franchón Crews-Dezurn, and the whole division.We also broke down the face-off between Devin Haney and Brian Norman Jr., including Haney dismissing Norman’s résumé. We talked about whether Norman is being underestimated, whether Haney’s power carries up to 147, and what Regis Prograis meant when he said Devin has accuracy but not real power.We wrapped up giving our full predictions for the upcoming Ring IV card:Abdullah Mason vs Sam Noakes, Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez vs Fernando Martinez, Devin Haney vs Brian Norman Jr., and David Benavidez vs Anthony Yarde.

Q is still out helping Jesús Ramos Jr. get ready for his fight with Shane Mosley Jr., so Mac from Stay Ready Boxing TV was back in the studio with us this week. We kicked things off reacting to Devin Haney’s new interview with The Ring Magazine, where Haney said his win over George Kambosos Jr. to become undisputed is still bigger than if he beats Brian Norman Jr. for the WBO welterweight title. We debated that claim and broke down what each win really means for Haney’s legacy at 147.
From there, we got into the weekend’s big fight Vergil Ortiz Jr. vs Erickson Lubin. Vergil made quick work of Lubin, stopping him in just two rounds. We gave our quick analysis of the fight, then talked about Jaron “Boots” Ennis jumping in the ring after the fight to call Vergil out. We broke down whether that fight can actually happen next, what Oscar De La Hoya and Eddie Hearn are already saying about negotiations, and why location Texas vs Vegas could make or break it.
We also played a clip of Robert Garcia, Vergil’s trainer, claiming Boots and Eddie are just fronting, that they don’t really want the fight. Then we covered Oscar’s post-fight comments about wanting the fight in Texas, Eddie pushing for Dallas, and how a neutral spot like Vegas might make more sense.
We wrapped up by talking about Claressa Shields’ $8 million deal with Salita Promotions and Wynn Records, breaking down what that kind of money means for women’s boxing and what it says about where her career is headed next.

Q was out this week working with Jesús Ramos Jr., so Mac from Stay Ready Boxing TV sat in with us for this one. We started the episode debating who the real Boogeyman of Boxing is right now the fighters people respect but don’t really want to face.
Then we talked about Breadman Edwards splitting from Caleb Plant and gave our thoughts on why that partnership might’ve ended. From there, we got into the tension between Oscar De La Hoya and Ryan Garcia, and whether their situation is helping or hurting Ryan’s career.
We also covered Manny Pacquiao’s talk of a comeback, with reports of possible fights against Floyd Mayweather or Vasiliy Lomachenko. Does it make sense, or is it time for Manny to leave it alone?
Finally, we dove into the back-and-forth between Devin Haney and Teofimo Lopez. Haney called Teo a liar who stalled negotiations. Teo said he was lowballed and stood on business. We broke down who’s telling the truth, and if Teo’s getting in his own way again.
