Episode notes

Mike, doing his best Jon Lovitz 'Rat Race' impression driving cross-country from Arlington to Miami, and Lance breakdown Saturday's mesmerizing Canelo-Billy Joe Saunders fight. The guys chat about the hype leading up to the fight, their scorecards, Canelo's Popeye uppercut that forced Saunders to toss in the towel, and Saunders' status after his surgery to repair a severe orbital bone fracture. Will BJS retire? Will Canelo and Eddie Hearn's partnership continue? Who will fight the pound-for-pound king next? Canelo ceaselessly claimed he's coming for Caleb Plant, so who better to talk about a potential matchup against boxing's current monarch than Plant, himself? Does Plant foresee a deal being made to fight Alvarez? Why does Plant it's "disrespectful" to compare him to BJS? Is Canelo's wealth of fighting experience a concern to Plant? How would that bout be promoted, and why is self-belief so vital to Plant? Lastly, the couplet chitchat about JoJo-Fortuna/Zurdo-Barrera.
