Stephen Fulton REVEALS Weight Cut Nightmare, Foster Rematch Plans & $17M Retirement Quota

Philly’s own Stephen “Cool Boy” Fulton sits down with Ak & Barak on RING CHAMPS and finally tells the full story of what really happened before his loss to O’Shaquie Foster. The two-time world champion walks through the weight cut from hell — running for hours without sweating, an hour in the sauna tent, passing out in the hotel room with his body locked up, and showing up to the weigh-in with one shoe on and one shoe off. He admits he was “killing himself” on the scale, ran out of legs before the bell, and says if Foster had actually engaged in a rumble, the result would have been completely different. The Foster rematch is officially on his radar. Fulton also opens up about the personal storm he was in heading into that fight: a year-plus breakup he was still working through in the ring, a house break-in where someone walked off with a $20K Chanel bag, and therapy work that finally helped him forgive his mom for the trauma she carried. He talks fashion ($35-40K Margiela fight kits, $1.5M total spent on clothes), his $17M retirement quota, his goal to become the first three-division world champion from Philadelphia, and a mystery summertime comeback fight at 130 pounds. This is one of the rawest, most honest sit-downs Fulton has done since the loss. 00:00:00 - Intro 00:01:19 - Best Dressed Boxers: Tank, Devin, Caleb Plant & More 00:02:35 - Raising His Sons & Teaching Style 00:04:32 - Would Steph Start His Own Clothing Brand? 00:05:13 - Most Expensive Fight Outfit: Head-to-Toe Margiela ($35-40K) 00:05:53 - How Much Has He Spent on Clothes His Whole Career? 00:09:42 - Going to Therapy & What He Learned 00:10:51 - Understanding His Mom’s Trauma & Forgiving Her 00:12:32 - His Parenting Philosophy: Don’t Force Your Kids 00:20:12 - His Financial Goal: $17 Million Before He Hangs It Up 00:22:04 - The House Break-In Before His Last Fight 00:28:41 - Acting, Podcasting & Life After Boxing 00:29:20 - Inoue vs Bam Rodriguez: Who Wins? 00:33:38 - Breaking Down Shakur Stevenson 00:34:13 - What Was Really Going on Before the Foster Fight (Breakup) 00:35:37 - Boxing Is the Loneliest Sport 00:36:09 - Being a Lover Boy, Therapy & Learning to Be Alone 00:40:47 - Motivation Now: Becoming a 3-Division World Champion 00:42:41 - What Really Went Wrong in the Foster Fight 00:43:14 - The Weight Cut Nightmare 00:47:34 - Does He Want the Rematch with Forster? 00:50:12 - Next Fight Coming This Year 00:54:20 - What’s Changed in Camp: Back to the Footwork 00:59:19 - Outro See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

Why Canelo Is The Greatest Mexican Ever: The 77-0 Truth & Where Chavez Sr Falls On The List

Ak & Barak are back on RING CHAMPS with their boldest take yet: Canelo Alvarez is the greatest Mexican fighter of all time, and they’re settling it with facts over feelings. In one of the most controversial debates in boxing, Ak & Barak break down why Saul “Canelo” Alvarez has surpassed Julio Cesar Chavez Sr to claim the Mexican GOAT crown, and they bring the receipts. They walk through Chavez Sr’s record with a microscope: the 77-0 fight against a 7-2 opponent, the 65-0 fight against a 0-1 fighter, the 51+ journeymen on the resume, and the Meldrick Taylor fight Chavez was losing until the final seconds. Then he stacks Canelo’s accomplishments: 18 world titles across four divisions, becoming the first Mexican fighter to go undisputed at 168 pounds, 20 champions beaten, 9 undefeated fighters defeated, and moving up to 175 pounds to fight bigger men. The conversation also tackles Salvador Sanchez (potential vs accomplishments), Ricardo “Finito” Lopez, Marco Antonio Barrera, Juan Manuel Marquez (and his Pacquiao-four-times resume), and the strongest contrarian argument on the board: Oscar De La Hoya’s 11 world titles across six divisions, and the fact that he beat Chavez Sr head-to-head. 00:00 - The Ring Champs: Settling the Mexican GOAT Debate 01:25 - Facts Over Feelings: Canelo vs. Chavez Sr. 02:50 - Salvador Sanchez: Eye Test vs. Longevity 04:44 - Finito Lopez: Undefeated & More Skilled Than Chavez? 05:33 - Marco Antonio Barrera & Juan Manuel Marquez Resumes 11:16 - Lineal Champions vs. Vacant Titles 12:46 - Putting Chavez Sr.’s 77-0 Record Under the Microscope 17:32 - The Superstar Cultural Impact of Chavez Sr. 18:58 - Peak Comparisons: 21-Year-Old Canelo vs. Chavez Sr. 22:14 - The Strongest Case: Oscar De La Hoya’s Six-Division Legacy 25:36 - Why Canelo Alvarez is the Greatest Mexican Fighter of All Time 28:36 - Ticket Gates, Pay-Per-View, & Putting “Asses in Seats” 29:42 - Breaking Down Chavez Sr.’s Biggest Career Wins 33:59 - Final Verdict: Canelo Stands Alone at the Top See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.

Gillie Da King: Wayne’s Diss, Getting Blackballed & Boxing KNOWLEDGE on Full Display

Gillie Da King sits down with Ak & Barak on Ring Champs for a no-holds-barred conversation about boxing, music, family, and the journey from being blackballed in the rap game to building a million-dollar empire. The Million Dollaz Worth of Game co-host opens up about Lil Wayne’s “Problem Solver” diss, why Jay-Z and 50 Cent both tried to sign him, the moment Wallo sent him the Spotify article that birthed the podcast, and why he cried signing the first deal after his cousin came home from doing 7,300 days. On the boxing side, Gillie goes deep on his Top 5 pound-for-pound list, why Tank Davis is the biggest star in American boxing, why Bam Rodriguez beats Naoya Inoue if they meet, and why Sebastian Fundora is the toughest fight on Boots Ennis’ horizon. He also crowns Joe Frazier King of Philly over Bernard Hopkins, breaks down Bozy’s Dungeon and the Philly fight scene, and explains the Cam Newton tight-pants beef that wasn’t actually beef. This is one of the most personal Ring Champs episodes yet: Gillie talks about losing his son, the philosophy he lives by as a grandfather, and why he’s putting his daughter N3WYRKLA’s debut album with 21 Savage, Trippie Redd, Rob 49, and G Herbo above his own rap career.
