- 0:21Speaker 2: Yeah, donkey today for Monday, July thirty. First goes to
- 0:24Speaker 2: Leonard mckelvy aka Charlamagne to God.
- 0:26Speaker 1: And why am I giving myself donkey of the day
- 0:29Speaker 1: to day?
- 0:29Speaker 2: Because I was wrong in my prediction for the Earl
- 0:32Speaker 2: Spence versus Terrence Crawtor fight.
- 0:33Speaker 1: Now, I know you're wondering, why would you.
- 0:35Speaker 2: Give yourself donkey of to day for making a wrong
- 0:38Speaker 2: sports prediction?
- 0:38Speaker 1: It happens.
- 0:39Speaker 2: Well, it's because I looked at man Terrence Crawford in
- 0:42Speaker 2: his eyes and told him he was gonna lose several times.
- 0:44Speaker 2: I've been saying for years that Earl Spence was gonna
- 0:47Speaker 2: beat Bud, and Terrence himself did not forget that when
- 0:51Speaker 2: he was here.
- 0:52Speaker 1: When was that last month? Yes, let's listen, you gotta
- 0:55Speaker 1: make some adjustment. Though. This is Earl Spince we talking about.
- 0:57Speaker 3: This is the guy that you had picked over the.
- 1:01Speaker 2: Remember, I don't forget I got you got I just
- 1:05Speaker 2: think you know styles make fights.
- 1:06Speaker 4: I think got it.
- 1:07Speaker 1: You feel pressure going into this fight.
- 1:09Speaker 4: Not at all. This is my time in the world,
- 1:11Speaker 4: gonna see July twenty nine.
- 1:12Speaker 2: You feel like you don't get the respect that you deserve,
- 1:15Speaker 2: even with you know, Charlamagne saying he thinks Arrow's gonna.
- 1:17Speaker 1: Beat you like this, it's just boxing.
- 1:20Speaker 4: Don't back down now I got her. You're gonna lose, definitely.
- 1:29Speaker 1: Look man.
- 1:30Speaker 2: Unlike so many other people in this media space, I
- 1:32Speaker 2: say things to people, not about them. Okay, whatever I
- 1:35Speaker 2: say about you, I have to keep that same energy
- 1:36Speaker 2: when you're in front of me. That's why so many
- 1:38Speaker 2: media personalities I don't respect because they say things about people,
- 1:41Speaker 2: and then when that person calls them or they face
- 1:44Speaker 2: to face with that person, their energy changes. Nah, keep
- 1:46Speaker 2: that same energy. And that's what I did with Terrence Crawford.
- 1:49Speaker 2: But also if I'm gonna do that when I'm wrong,
- 1:51Speaker 2: I'm gonna let everybody know I was wrong, because after
- 1:53Speaker 2: the performance Terrence Crawford put on Saturday Night, he deserves that.
- 1:57Speaker 1: Okay.
- 1:58Speaker 2: I saw what Bud said to the reporters after the fight.
- 1:59Speaker 2: Let's listen, do you feel.
- 2:01Speaker 3: Like now when you look back, like, do you feel
- 2:03Speaker 3: some sense of vindication that people who overlooked you for
- 2:06Speaker 3: so long now you're at the top of the heap
- 2:09Speaker 3: and there's no doubt. Well, I've been telling each and
- 2:12Speaker 3: every one of y'all for years, a lot of y'all
- 2:15Speaker 3: over here looking sad, Ellie, you looking like a dude
- 2:19Speaker 3: over there, because you was going against me all in all.
- 2:22Speaker 3: You know, I get to say I told y'all because
- 2:25Speaker 3: I've been asking for these fights for years, and y'all
- 2:28Speaker 3: been saying, Oh, he's too small, he's going to get this,
- 2:32Speaker 3: he's gonna get broken, And each and every time that
- 2:35Speaker 3: I step up, I proved y'all wrong. So you know
- 2:38Speaker 3: what I mean, Write some great stories about Terrence Crawford.
- 2:41Speaker 3: Don't hate on him, don't say nothing negative. Just give
- 2:45Speaker 3: me my proms.
- 2:46Speaker 2: Terres Crawford is absolutely correct terms. Crawford is the best
- 2:48Speaker 2: pound for pound fighter in boxing. There's nothing else to say.
- 2:52Speaker 2: That man made Earl Spence, an undisputed, undefeated three division
- 2:55Speaker 2: champion who had never ever been knocked down. He made
- 2:58Speaker 2: that man look basic, and that's what I hate about
- 3:00Speaker 2: casual fans and don't watch boxing. There's folks out there
- 3:03Speaker 2: who now think Earl Spence is trash, and that's not
- 3:06Speaker 2: the case. He's an elite level fighter. But clearly there's
- 3:09Speaker 2: levels to elite, and Terrence Crawford is at the top. Okay,
- 3:11Speaker 2: that man did everything that Earl Spence.
- 3:13Speaker 1: That I didn't think he could do.
- 3:15Speaker 2: He overpowered him, he heard him, and he was able
- 3:17Speaker 2: to withstand Earl's power. Okay, Bud literally said he took
- 3:21Speaker 2: one at Earl's punches early and thought to himself, that's it.
- 3:24Speaker 1: And what's so cold about Terrence.
- 3:26Speaker 2: Crawford is even when he was here and I was
- 3:28Speaker 2: telling him he was going to lose the Earl, now
- 3:30Speaker 2: once did he feel the need to overly prove with
- 3:32Speaker 2: words what he was going to do. Let's go back
- 3:34Speaker 2: and listen to some more.
- 3:36Speaker 1: Can't he's big, He's naturally bigger than you.
- 3:38Speaker 4: He's strong, he's the big guy all. Can he get hurt? Yeah,
- 3:43Speaker 4: he's a man, So what's going to stop him from
- 3:44Speaker 4: banging with me?
- 3:45Speaker 2: I'm not a coacher in your corner, but I wouldn't
- 3:47Speaker 2: suggest you bang with him.
- 3:48Speaker 1: What you're trying to say you're trying to say he's
- 3:51Speaker 1: not his power.
- 3:51Speaker 4: Think he's strong at whats clear?
- 3:56Speaker 1: Terrence Crawford is amazing.
- 3:57Speaker 3: We know that what he does, what you say, what
- 3:59Speaker 3: I'm saying is what makes you think that probably the size.
- 4:02Speaker 1: I don't know if you can hurt him.
- 4:03Speaker 4: Is what I'm saying. Did he get hurt his last fight? Yes?
- 4:06Speaker 2: Case yeah, But you got to get to him though,
- 4:08Speaker 2: So you're saying this man can't get to him.
- 4:11Speaker 4: That's what you say.
- 4:13Speaker 1: My man read as a great boxing guy. He says,
- 4:15Speaker 1: you win, no problem. My Bob says, you win no problem.
- 4:18Speaker 1: Neither are the bigs I've been having since the fight's.
- 4:21Speaker 4: But Shanga Main don't feel that way.
- 4:22Speaker 3: What is it?
- 4:23Speaker 4: What listen? That's his opinion.
- 4:25Speaker 3: You know, when people have an opinion, it's like as
- 4:28Speaker 3: everybody got one.
- 4:33Speaker 2: Sometimes it's tough to admit when you're wrong, especially when
- 4:36Speaker 2: you're right about a lot of stuff like I am.
- 4:37Speaker 2: But I was right about UFOs, I was right about
- 4:41Speaker 2: being mistaken from Mars Chestnut. I was right about envy
- 4:44Speaker 2: being a Spanish American descent. It's just a gift that
- 4:46Speaker 2: I have. But there's a lesson to be learned in this, Okay,
- 4:49Speaker 2: if you know what you can do, there's no need
- 4:51Speaker 2: to have a bunch of words and lip service. Just
- 4:53Speaker 2: show and prove through actions and deeds. And Bud showed
- 4:56Speaker 2: us on Saturday through actions and DEDs. That fight was
- 4:59Speaker 2: hard to watch, man, It was hard to watch. Okay,
- 5:01Speaker 2: it was hard to watch Earl Spince get beat like that.
- 5:03Speaker 2: That fight had me stressed. I'm not a gambling man,
- 5:05Speaker 2: so I didn't have no money on the fight. I
- 5:07Speaker 2: love bull fighter, so there wasn't a personal attachment to
- 5:09Speaker 2: either one. But I did feel like Bud was in
- 5:11Speaker 2: there kicking my ass.
- 5:13Speaker 1: I felt Budd was.
- 5:13Speaker 2: In there taking out years of being dotted by critics.
- 5:16Speaker 2: He was taking it out on Earl. It felt like
- 5:18Speaker 2: Bud took it very personal that people said this is
- 5:20Speaker 2: the guy y'all said could beat me. And every time
- 5:23Speaker 2: Earl got knocked down, I felt knocked down too.
- 5:26Speaker 1: I was so.
- 5:26Speaker 2: Emotionally drained from the fight on Saturday night that I
- 5:28Speaker 2: didn't even go see Beyonce on Sunday.
- 5:30Speaker 1: What I was tired.
- 5:32Speaker 2: Okay, that already worked myself up to think we was
- 5:34Speaker 2: gonna get a much more competitive fight than we got.
- 5:36Speaker 1: So emotionally that was a letdown.
- 5:38Speaker 2: Even if you had Earl, even if you had Bud,
- 5:41Speaker 2: nobody could predict that level of domination.
- 5:43Speaker 1: Even if you predicted Bud.
- 5:45Speaker 2: To knock Spinch out, or if you thought Spench was
- 5:47Speaker 2: gonna knock but out, you didn't think either one of
- 5:49Speaker 2: them was going to dominate the fight the way Bud did. Okay,
- 5:51Speaker 2: So drop on the clues bombs of Terrence Crawford, all right,
- 5:55Speaker 2: And I don't need a rematch. I understand Earl Spince
- 5:58Speaker 2: is going to exercise his rematch clause may fight at
- 6:00Speaker 2: one fifty four.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Anything can happen in a fight.
- 6:02Speaker 2: But we all know styles make fights, and I don't
- 6:04Speaker 2: know what Earl Spence could do style wise to have
- 6:06Speaker 2: any answers for what Terrence Crawford did Sunday night, the
- 6:09Speaker 2: way Terrence Crawford fought, I mean Saturday night, the way
- 6:12Speaker 2: Terrence Crawford.
- 6:13Speaker 1: Fought on Saturday night.
- 6:14Speaker 2: He could have helped the Avengers in the Battle for
- 6:16Speaker 2: Earth against Dingos.
- 6:18Speaker 1: Okay, you can't tell me that.
- 6:19Speaker 2: When it comes to hand to hand combat, Terrence not
- 6:21Speaker 2: up there with Captain America. So I don't know what
- 6:23Speaker 2: could change in the rematch. But Earl Spence is an
- 6:25Speaker 2: elite level fighters, so anything can happen. But after what
- 6:27Speaker 2: we saw Saturday night, the gap between them is so wide.
- 6:30Speaker 2: I don't want to see a rematch, but hey, they
- 6:32Speaker 2: probably will rematching. Then after that, there's nothing left for
- 6:36Speaker 2: Bud to do. He'll be thirty six years old. Let's
- 6:38Speaker 2: say he wins the rematch in a dominant fashion again,
- 6:41Speaker 2: then what he's gonna fight?
- 6:42Speaker 1: Boots?
- 6:43Speaker 2: Love Boots, but that does way more for Boots than
- 6:46Speaker 2: it does for Terres Crawford, so there's no incentive there.
- 6:48Speaker 2: So I see Budd moving up to one fifty four
- 6:50Speaker 2: fighting Jamel Charlo for the opportunity to become a three
- 6:53Speaker 2: division undisputed champion and then retire. That's it, nothing else
- 6:57Speaker 2: for Budd to do. After that, he's quieted, all the critics, silenced, all.
- 7:01Speaker 1: That they says. And he's absolutely right.
- 7:03Speaker 2: If he was wrong about Terrence Crawford versus Earl Spits,
- 7:06Speaker 2: just admit it, give the man his props. Just admit
- 7:09Speaker 2: you was wrong and give that man his just due. Terrence,
- 7:11Speaker 2: Bud Crawford, you are indeed the illus nigger in Nebraska,
- 7:15Speaker 2: and I was wrong about you losing the earlspins, so
- 7:18Speaker 2: please give me Charlamagne to God, the biggest he Hull.
- 7:23Speaker 1: It's hard man. That was a tough fight to watch,
- 7:27Speaker 1: very tough fight to watch. All right, Well, thank you
- 7:30Speaker 1: for that donkey today. Yes, indeed
