Hosts: Shannon Sharpe ("Unc") & Chad "Ocho Cinco" Johnson
Main Theme: Immediate reactions to a jam-packed fight night featuring Shakur Stevenson’s emphatic win over Teofimo Lopez, Keyshawn Davis’ knockout victory, Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller’s hairpiece mishap, and Alexander Volkanovski’s UFC triumph—delivered in the show’s signature lively, insightful style.
1. Shakur Stevenson Dominates Teofimo Lopez
Segment Start: [03:55]
Discussion & Analysis
- Result: Shakur Stevenson defeats Teofimo Lopez by unanimous decision.
- Unc: “It was a route. It was a whitewashing. He was a boxing clinic. ... If you’re a brawler and you’re fighting a boxer, you gotta turn it into a street fight. You can’t fight his fight. And that's what Teofimo tried to do.” [04:02]
- Breakdown: Unc and Ocho agree Teofimo needed to make the fight ugly to have any chance but fought Shakur’s tactical game instead.
- Unc: “All Shakur does is run. He runs all fight. He dances around. What did he do tonight, Unc? He stood mid range. He stood in the pocket all night long.” [05:29]
- Defensive Mastery: Shakur took only one or two rounds off, otherwise controlling range and tempo. Teofimo looked frustrated and ineffective.
- Fan Appeal: Ocho questions if Shakur’s style will ever make him a lucrative, must-watch star for casual fans:
“I just don’t think this style... He’s not going to get enough people fighting this style, Ocho, to get him that 30, 40 million dollar payday.” [07:44]
- Unc responds: “He gonna get it anyway because he’s the best at what he does. The point of the game of boxing is to hit and not get hit.” [07:54]
- Boxing Art vs. Entertainment: Extended riff about the difference between purists’ appreciation and what most fans want: knockouts, drama, violence.
Ocho: “People...love Mike Tyson.” [10:54]
Unc: “A purist like a one-nothing ball game in baseball...But that’s not where we are anymore.” [11:09]
Notable Quote:
- “If you go back and look at Floyd at 130, 135, 140, Floyd was getting people out of there...All the great fighters that fought at 30, 35, 40, they were getting out of there.” - Chad Ocho Cinco [07:21]
2. How Champions Are Remembered & the Fear of Losing

“Boxers are so afraid to get that blemish on that record...The great fighters...with the exception of Floyd, all of them have losses.” - Chad Ocho Cinco [15:15]

3. The Next Big Fights at 135–140: Haney, Davis, Roach

- Key Names: Potential opponents for Stevenson—Devin Haney, Lamont Roach, and especially Gervonta “Tank” Davis.

- The Mega-Fight:
“That’s a mega fight. Everybody and they mama coming to see that.” - Unc [22:55]

- Next Challenge: Immediately calls out Devin Haney; Haney responds positively on X.
