Tommy Fury wants rematch w/Jake Paul
Podcast Description
In this episode of "Leave It in the Ring," we discuss the results of the Top Rank card held on December 7 at the Footprint Center in Arizona, featuring the main events of Navarrete vs. Valdez and Espinoza vs. Ramirez, billed as "The Rematches." In the world of social media, YouTube star turned boxer Jake Paul is engaged in a back-and-forth with Tommy Fury, the only fighter to hand him a defeat. We explore the reasons why a rematch is necessary for Jake Paul and why a victory over Fury is crucial if he wants to be taken seriously in boxing. Additionally, Jaron "Boots" Ennis is facing significant backlash after stating in a post-fight interview that he believes his days in the welterweight division might be over and that it may be time for him to move up in weight. Vergil Ortiz Jr. has welcomed Boots to the division and has expressed interest in a potential matchup. However, Boots later retracted his initial statement, indicating that he wants to stay at 147 pounds to unify the division, while still entertaining a discussion about a fight with 140-pound champion Teofimo Lopez.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tommy-fury-wants-rematch-w-jake-paul--6445435/support.

In this gripping episode of “Leave It in the Ring,” host David Duenez, alongside co-host Gfunky, delves deep into the heated controversy surrounding Victor Conte, the founder of Snac and a well-known advocate for clean sports, and Memo Heredia, the strength and conditioning coach for light heavyweight champion David Benavidez. The discussion centers on the intricate and often murky history each man has within the sphere of athlete doping and their fervent efforts to eradicate performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs) from the sport of boxing.
The episode takes an intriguing turn as it highlights 2x unified champion Teofimo Lopez’s dramatic outburst on social media, where he expresses frustration over his relationship with Top Rank, his current promoter. Lopez boldly critiques what he perceives as an inadequate financial compensation for his talents, sparking a conversation about the true value of a fighter’s worth in today’s boxing landscape.
The hosts ponder several thought-provoking questions: Do championship titles inherently translate to star power in the boxing world? Is a fighter entitled to a larger paycheck if public demand for their bouts is lacking? As they navigate these complex issues, Duenez and Gfunky explore the phenomenon of fighters seeking inflated salaries despite the absence of significant market appeal, shedding light on the ongoing struggle for recognition and financial reward in a competitive industry.
