In short
Shakur Stevenson discusses his dominant performance vs. Teofimo Lopez, calls out Ryan Garcia and Devin Haney, and talks boxing strategy, matchmaking, and his community/philanthropy work.
Guest backgrounds
The episode features Shakur Stevenson (undefeated multi-division world champion, Olympic medalist). The other main speaker is Fat Joe (rapper/producer from the Bronx/Newark area) and he also appears as a host/guest voice throughout. They discuss boxing and culture, plus Fat Joe’s sports/entertainment connections.
Key claims
Shakur says he capitalized on Teofimo’s mistakes and that nothing Teofimo could change would alter Shakur’s mindset to dominate. He criticizes Teofimo’s corner—especially his father’s coaching—saying it wasn’t a real game plan. Shakur claims he landed 252 jabs in the fight. He says Devin Haney is talented but has fought “scared” after being “touched,” and he’s open to a fight if weight-class logistics make sense. He also suggests Ryan Garcia is being called out and implies he’d fight top names.
Notable examples
Mentions Floyd Mayweather’s mid-fight adjustments vs. Manny Pacquiao as a comparison; references boxing walkout/psychology and jab counts; discusses giving back to Newark kids and past community ticket support (e.g., Dave Winfield/Yankees).

2:32Let's get ready to rumble. What's up, y 'all? This your boy, Joe Crapp, the John. It's your boy, Jada. You know what it is, the Joe and Jada show. Every show legendary. Every show iconic. And we demolish the shit. You think of today's guests. I think of Newark, New Jersey. You know what I mean? You think of Olympic medalist. Five-time world champion. Number three, powerful pal. Greatest fighter in the world. Undefeated professional record. Multi-division world title. Hottest young fighter on the planet. Fucking right. Just made history in the world's greatest arena. Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for some calls, Stevie.
3:26What up,
3:31what up, what up? Welcome to the Joe with Jayden show, my brother. You put on a hell of a spectacular performance. Now, I've been, we fan of boxers. We fan of yours. We had Eddie Earnlawyer. And after speaking to him and having him on the interview, he may be looking to fight in a different way but you know people love boxing for different things some people want to see an excited fight some people want to see some crazy stuff happen this that but that if you learn about the sport you can learn the difference in different boxes I was already a fan of yours when he broke down what you do and how you do and if you was to just be you in that fight what was going to happen.
4:19And everything he said, I was in my crib going, holy shit, this is fucking crazy. He's like, it made him look like a summa cum laude in your boxing and you put on a spectacular you know what I mean? And he's like, it's not going to be, he's going to be born, but his Chico is not going to get hit. He's going to meet the other guy and everything. I'm like, yo, this is fucking amazing how he said maybe that's why he's in his profession and we do what we do but congratulations there's nothing but did you play that out just the way it went in your head? I knew it was a tough fight I knew he was a good fighter but every time I sat there and watched him I'm like shit he makes so much mistakes to it I'm going to capitalize off of every mistake So, honestly, everything I seen on film and how Lockley, what I was going to do, it happened on fight, man.
5:20Everything, like, from first round to 12, I knew, like, how I was going to be. But he a good fighter. I give him respect, and I appreciate him for the opportunity. So, respect me, honey. But, you know, I always got, he gets tired of me saying the same story all the time. Famous fight, Floyd Mayweather, one of the greatest of all time, Manny Grace. he was losing his fight to some Mexican guy and about the six rounds he switched up the whole shit on him and won and at the end when he won he started talking about the old video to Jack Dempsey this that I had to switch it up like this and this and that where you going there if you play it out of your head suppose he switched up the whole shit on you how would you have adjusted to him switching up his own cause if I was a boss, I would have switched up the whole shit.
6:12I would have been like, okay, I know he got my number like this. I got to do something different. If I'm being real with you, it's nothing he could have did that night that was going to change the outcome of what I was doing. Like, I already had my mindset on me dominating this fight, me winning this fight. So it didn't matter what he did. I was going to be me. I was going to be coming that night. I thought the way I always think about it right I used to say back in the days the guy was Mike Tyson Mike Tyson to put you to sleep quick and I always said yo I have to fight Mike Tyson in the street club whatever I got the hook on him so fast and hopefully get lucky yo that wasn't the best bet oh no he was going to knock me out If I try to fight with him on box or something like this, I'm done.
7:10So, like, the problem with Tiafemo, right, who's a great boxer, besides his father, his father's a whole problem. It's real talk. His father is not. He got to go. Pop's got to go. Pop's got to go. He was in the corner. I watched the fight. He's in the corner. Yo, fight back. Do something. That's not a plan. I'm saying, I'm saying. It's possible to say I'm crazy and shit. See, he was in the other corner, so you probably said that. No, no, but he watching. You can't relive. You watching that whole fight. I noticed that about you. No, you watching the corner. His dad was saying the craziest things to him.
7:47You're losing. Fight. You're losing. Fight. What the fuck is that? I need somebody to say, left jab, cross. Body, bro. What the fuck is that? My only thing about this, though, when he been doing this, His dad been doing this. T.O.'s been just good enough to be able to get away with this shit. No, no, no. But with somebody like you, he had to be, he had to respect somebody's opinion, and he had to have a real coach with a game plan. I'm not going to lie. It wasn't going to make a difference. I know, but you got to guarantee, y 'all. He can't at anybody. Anybody. You got to understand. Paul, Mick, Rocky.
8:29At least it would have been something because. He was. the problem that happened with Tia Fimo right he got his ass right hold up they gassed him right so he was ring fighter number one fighter he wasn't gassed though he was a good fighter listen to what I'm saying no they gassed him and called him number one he was a good fighter you number one he's thinking he's going jab for jab move for move technique for technique That's what he got it all for. That's what happened with you. He made history. Fabulous on that versus. We never talk about that. Fab tried to go in there and put freestyles and all that where he should have just been doing the fucking hit mania.
9:12He went to your game plan. You understand what I'm saying? So with you, he tried to prove that. He believed it. Yo, I got enough skills. Shakur Stevenson, I could go jab for jab. He fucked up. He should have went in there and tried to, like, buff you up or something. But he's used to having enough skills to where he fight guys and he's in control. Like he's used to doing things that's like, he's... Well, every now and then you got to elevate just like we got to elevate. Every now and then you got to look at yourself, him. I'm hoping he's a great fighter. He can look at it whether he can't fuck with you or not.
9:50He got to look at his corner and he needs to step up that. Every now and then. Fuck that. He's going to let him finish too?
10:02What's up with Bud? How important was Bud to you for this fight and your career, period? Yo, it's crazy. He kind of gave me like, I ain't going to say he gave me the gameplay, but he kind of texted me something that kind of helped. That's official. So when he texted to me and I looked at what he said, but I've been watching him and I already was thinking the same thing, it kind of confirmed what I knew so I'm like okay just stick with this stick with this on fight night and it's gonna bother him and then on fight night when I did that shit I'm like damn this shit is fucking him up he cannot stop this shit this shit is bothering him he didn't know what to do like his mind just went into a whole I'ma tell you how you really I'ma tell you how you really then you land the most amount of jabs I don't know I'ma tell you what I'ma tell you If I was Tia Fimo, I'd tell you where to fuck me up.
10:57You smiling the whole... That shit would have had me dumb type. You smiling the whole shit like that. By my hand. I would have been... I'd have to bring the machete out in the ring. Fuck it. The whole place is going down in that bitch. That shit, you smiling at him. Bossing his ass. Now, with a fight, like, it's no... It's not a... You landed 252 jabs. Holy shit. Somebody make some noise for that. I thought I landed that most in my last fight. It was 230 something. Street fight. 230 something. Come on, now. 232 jabs. I don't believe that. It's a long ass street fight. I believe you raced cocky car up the block faster than the 230 jabs.
11:54I got some knockout you know I once beat up a karate king you see your man I'm not saying that I'm not saying that kidding me I'm not saying that I'm not saying that I know you did no no no I put some niggas down too knocked him out yo y 'all can't touch the pavement um what were you talking about you yo you on your shit today he must have smoked some shit from Cali he still got Cali I'm fasting. He still got Cali wings. I'm fasting, brother. You fasting? I love it. Man, that's great, man. I fast, too. I fast. You ever seen Fat Fat Joe? 500 pounds. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like the real fucking fucking kingpin.
12:37Lean back. Yeah, I lost all that shit fast once a week, Keto. You know, I'm pitching a shutout, man. No glizzies. I'm doing just fine. We're going to hit at the game tonight. Tuna fish salad. I'm not here. Oh, thanks for going for that. Go Diet Pepsi. Yeah, yeah. I snuck in the diet, sunk this here too. That's part of the... I'm leaning back. I'm going light, but I'm getting back on the stuff. It's bad. But, you know, I'm working on it. You know, you see I'm drinking water. You know what I'm saying? In any case, I seen something and we know it. I don't care where it's at, where you go, whatever.
13:20when a Puerto Rican see that flag somewhere. I don't care if I'm driving in the highway and there's a flag out the project window. It's something. It's like the Batman sign. Let me ask the brother, why did you put the Puerto Rican flag on your shorts? See, I put it on my shorts because people don't realize I am. That's my blood. You're Puerto Rican. Yeah, that's my blood. Yes! Stop! But let me explain it though. Nah, let me explain it though. Let me explain it though. My dad knew you had that. My dad is Puerto Rican. So I never really, but I never really got to really be around him like my entire life.
14:08He wasn't in my life. So forget it. It was hard to like really claim that I'm Puerto Rican or even say it. Cause like I really am, but I don't know my dad. But when I got to meet him, then I got to like build a relationship with him. He died. So it was like I never really kind of, you feel me? So for me, it was hard to really like have that, like just embrace it. But now I'm like, fuck it. It is what it is. Part of my blood is part of who I am. And let it be known. And we popping, B. Fuck talking. You got a new cousin right here. You know, we in a fluidity cap. Nah, let me tell you something. man I was so proud of that flag on there but sometimes you got black boxes that grew up with so many Puerto Ricans that when you go to the gym they'll have a Puerto Rican flag like even Floyd used to have the Puerto Rican flag Rihanna but he wasn't Puerto Rican but yeah when I seen that I said man I gotta see what this about right here because we need that in the system yeah you And we, you know, Puerto Ricans, my moms and moms, my moms used to throw a party if it rains.
15:19My projects, it's raining. Okay, bring out the penning and song out here. South Wednesdays, like, they throw a party for everything. But in a similar way, my father's Cuban. But I grew up with the Puerto Ricans up here. My Cuban family was more in Miami. And so a lot of Cuban fans be like, yo, you say you Cuban now, but you wasn't really, you was like 100 % Puerto Ricans. I always knew my Cuban family, but I grew up with my Puerto Ricans, say, 90 % of my life. 95. Like me? Yeah, like you. But we proud of you, brother. Either way, man, you are pound for pound the best in the game. And the only guy I would compare to be the best in the game would be Bud.
16:06Yeah. And he retired. Yep. And I don't feel like you ducking nobody. I see you start smiling at him. You fucking him. What's up with Conor Ben? Oh, man. Is he good or is he hype? Because he look mean. No, I think it's hype. He's not like no skillful fighter. He's not. He don't know shit. Oh, no. He's going to get his ass. His knowledge is limited. His game plan will be to just use size. Like use size and bully me or some shit. But like as far as knowledge and skill and all of the shit that I've been working on since fucking Yeha, he don't have that. He don't know what that is. So, it's a cool fight, but it's levels.
16:48Let me tell you. Levels. He always say, let me tell you something. Let me tell you something. I knew you was going to be something special. I seen a clip of you young. Yeah. You lost. Yeah. The ladies interviewing you, you answering, but your past, you was like... Crain. Yeah, I'm like, this thing and all this. He got a different type of, he's a different type of animal, though, from a little, from a youngin' like that. It was so passionate to him. He's gonna be the champ. He's gonna be one of them ones. Yeah, for sure. When it meant so much to you at that age, you knew what winning was. That's why you're here with you right now.
17:33Yeah, I appreciate that. I felt something. You know, all the great ones. I ain't gonna lie. you had, you walked a fighter out that I fought. And I remember I'm in the ring and your song came on. That shit came out fire. I was nervous as hell. I'm like, oh, this how, it was Jamel Henry. Oh, yeah. He walked out and I forgot what song you play. I'm like, the arena went crazy. It didn't work out well. Nah, I whooped his ass. But I was nervous. I'm like, oh, shit, they came out like, the song came out. Actually, that plays a part in the psyche. Nah, it don't really play a part. But at that moment, it felt like, damn, he kind of outdid me right now.
18:20You know, we the first rappers to ever bring a boxer in the ring. Ever? Ever. Ever? Me and Big Pump, we brought out Felix Trinidad against De La Hoya. Ever. Damn, I didn't even know that. And so we performed dead in the middle of Little Lip, me and Big Pump. When we came out, We seen the odds in that arena. They was like, yo, at the time, we the most popping. We got the, you know, he's still my idol, Felix Trinidad. And, man, what a fucking honor that shit was. Did he win? Huh? Did he win? Yeah, he beat. He beat De La Hoya. You know, De La Hoya do a lot of weird shit now, but he ain't ducked nobody, and he was a great champion.
19:01And so we got to salute him. But now he's like, you know, he's like all the gangster niggas. Like, I watched Instagram and all the gangster niggas I used to respect look crazy on the Instagram. You be like, yo, I thought this was the realest ever. That nigga looking like a dodo bird right now. I didn't feel bringing YFN Lucci out. Oh, no, it was amazing. I was fired. I love that. Because, like, his story and shit, like, I think it was more so, like, the respect level was kind of there. And I fuck with him, actually. Yeah, he's fired. I like when I meet, like, people like y 'all, like, y 'all famous, but y 'all, like, level-headed.

And I waited my whole life to meet Bruno Mars because he's half Puerto Rican.
20:23And that man let me down so bad. And I seen Julie Greenwald. She tried to check me, like, you know, he signed her number. and she was like, yo, Joe, I said, you know, that boy must have been on some shit because I'm telling you what he did. Yeah.

Like, y 'all kind of remind me of, like, that energy. I don't do it. And if somebody's full of shit and all that, I walk the other way. I look the other way. I don't even want to be online.

I'm like, how am I supposed to be? Because I don't know how to be another way. I don't even like people like that.
21:37I don't like celebrities that treat people like shit. I don't like celebrities that think they better than everybody. That shit there is the biggest turnoff I've ever seen in the world. You would be the most beautiful girl in the world. You think your shit don't stink. Look over there. Don't come by this smelling great guy. Yo, what's up with the side war trumps? Fire, fire, fire. Nah, it was a great collab and I enjoyed doing business with them. I actually got to meet them. They came by the hotel and they showed a lot of love, so I appreciate them two. We put together a great fit for this fight and as the fights go on, I'm going to keep getting better with my fits and everything.
22:24Hopefully you bring Kiss out on Main Champ. Oh, you want to come out now? You was fucking performing for Darren Grant. He didn't call me that. He got his ass knocked through the fucking rope. I didn't know. He got his ass knocked through the rope. Fuck around, Darren Grant. Let me tell you something. Make it up, baby. Nah, the man come out. He got to come out with that shit. You pussy, you did your cousins. When you come out for him, you got to do that one right there. It's national TV. it's a fit that's great shout out my brother Edgar Balanga that's my brother right there he always try to come out to my lifestyle and the TV always say he can't do it I got a song called it's too gangster oh and they won't let him because you gotta send the lyrics no sir they won't let him no they wouldn't let him he tried 20 fights to come out to my lifestyle they be like nah we can't it's too much killing and shit Reggie.
23:26That got my dog, though. I ain't going to lie. That's my dog. How important is giving back to the community? Shit, that shit mean everything. I enjoy, like, the kids that's, like, coming up in a situation that I'm coming up with. Like, for me, I had, like, bought tickets for them, man. They kind of got publicized. I usually don't publicly do it. I usually, I done been doing this, like, for years and years. But now for me, where it's like with the kids, it's like I just want to show them like it's possible. And that's my main thing, showing them like you come from nothing, you come from the slums, but you still can get out of that situation with hard work and dedication.
24:07And I try to show them me right there in front and see like, OK, yeah, this is hope. This is hope. I'm not sure if he's a Hall of Famer, but Dave Winfield from the Yankees. shout out Dave Winfield. We used to get in Yankee Stadium with the Dave Winfield Foundation. I seen that man. It was at a Jordan party in LA and I dove on his car. So, yo, Dave Winfield. He knew who I was too. He is a Hall of Famer. I dove on his car. Yo, I used to go to Yankee game because of you. Did you fuck his car? No. But what I'm trying to tell you, we talking about, it was one of the most humbling things I ever did because I lost my mind.
24:46This man used to give us tickets to our community center to go to Yankee Stadium. For us, Yankee Stadium was like just winning, seeing green grass. The Bronx ain't got green grass. We got the brown shit. You go in Yankee Stadium, that shit. Bronx ain't got green grass. Yeah, I got that same shit, the brown shit. The brown shit. You go in Yankee Stadium, that shit green. It's a vibe in there. So, you know, shout out to all the athletes that do that. You know what's crazy? I was just with the philanthropy team. I'm working on something really, really big. And you know what's crazy is, just now I was walking over here, I just met with a Mike Brinkley note, and I said to myself, walking over here, I said, this is why God bless you.
25:30Because you're always thinking about the community. You're always thinking about the people. And there is no price tag. There is nothing, you know what I'm saying? If we could definitely help and feed people in our community and all that, that's the biggest thing you could do in the world. Yeah, that was my thing with it too. It's like, I never really had nobody to come back to Newark and like, stand in front of me and see like, like I always heard of like, and there's no disrespect to Shaq. I fuck with Shaq. He from Newark. But, I always heard about Shaq being from Newark. And I heard about his, I used to go to his movie theater and all that shit, but I never really got to see him like, up close and personal to be like, okay, it's possible.
26:12Like, I could keep doing what I'm doing. But now for me, it's like, shit, I got to do that for the kids. Like, I got to. Like, that's my main objective in life.

So I used to go to his training camps and shit. But he was managing. I mean, Jay Prince was managing Andre Ward at the time. and I met him through him but then it's another guy Antonio Leonard that's like my family now and he introduced me to Jay for real for real like outside of Oakland we went to Houston man I met him in a club and I got actually yo it's crazy I probably was like what 17, 18 I'm not supposed to be in the club but I go through there and they like uh shit you good you with Jay Prince and they take me to a back room and shit he in the back playing uh pool with one hand.

Talking to two-time fellas. Let me tell you, I'm a street guy.
37:57Yeah. Like, real street guy, respected by the legends in the street. Only thing I did was rap. Right? And there's some guys that people respected, and they were gangsters, did a little time, whatever and they was running around here like they tough they got their ass whipped one time and never came back outside i don't know where that happens i used to come outside every day with black eyes big nose big i don't give a fuck yeah these guys retired like so-called like so-called tough guys like acting like you know who you are you got your ass whipped you ain't come back outside you pussy nah we can't we making too many legends out there because you making me call bum niggas out and giving them a name in the street.
38:41You know, niggas is famous for getting their ass whipped by Fat Joe, too. You walk in, where's player there? There's places, look, I love all of you. I respect all the legends, all the street guys, but there's places where the old school street guys go. You know, it's like Cheers, where yo, this is Stocker 147, this is the God Jaim. Still to this day, there's bars that you could go, and everybody who has something going on, go. Any given Sunday, you walk in there and be like, yo, that's Andy, the guy Fat Joe beat the shit out of him. He pressed charges on him. There's always one. Every one of those joints, you walk in, Rich Player walked in, it was like, yo, don't look now.
39:22Guy who told on Joey when he beat him up, you know, that was 30 years ago, Rich. Please don't stare at him, this, this, that. You know, it's people you beat up. And, you know, they become legends because you beat them up. Who's the toughest fighter you ever fought? Toughest fighter I ever fought probably William Zepeda William Zepeda the Mexican that I fought on the card with Edgar that night yeah dude yeah I see he was fighting you dude was tough I ain't gonna lie that was a tough fight he was willing to do whatever it took to win a fight so hello that let me know like yeah you was tough but I mean I dominated but shit it was me other niggas they'll feel like niggas like they gonna understand that that nigga he a real gangster like no bullshit he coming in there he he stepping I don't care who it is he coming with that shit what's the next outside the ring for you outside the ring nah I be messing with my young fighters so shout out to Zay Quinn Moses and Emmanuel Chance my little cousin and not my little blood brother, but like my little brother, but they fighting in April.
40:43And that's going to be next. That's what I'm really going to be focused on, helping them get ready for their fights and making sure they well prepared that night. Oh, that's fine. I met Tank like he was 12. He was down with Floyd Mayweather. Yeah. He was a baby. Yeah. And he was like, yo, that's going to be the one that's going to be the one. And he mentored him up to, you know, he became the man. why you looking at me like that Jaden I'm just looking at you my brother this guy he's a funny dude bro let me tell you something so that was your toughest fight is there any breakage you're out to break is there anything that you got your eye on that you like yo I gotta have that that's something I need to do they fucked up what I really could have did but I was I was gonna have two belts in one weight class and I wanted to be able to like go really do what I wanted but they stripped me out of my belt at 135 pounds really for no reason but that like a money is that like some fake extortion shit going on with yeah it is it is it is it's like break that down both of y 'all break it down cause I'm confused when you win a belt I gotta learn I'm trying to learn when you win a belt You got to pay to be able to keep your belt.
42:07So I paid them. I ain't free. Then keep one more. Yeah, yeah. No, what they did to me is fucked up. Because when I fought Williams-Depeda for the 135 title, I paid them after the fight. After that, I got moved up for the Tia Fimo fight at 140 pounds. They belt don't got nothing to do with that fight. But they're asking me for double of what I paid them after my last fight. You won that fight. For me to go up to 140 pounds and keep my belt, I got to pay double. That shit don't need. But they really got mad at Terrence Crawford. He's supposed to. They had a real beef with them, and then they tried to take it out on me.
42:46But I really don't even like speaking on that shit. It is what it is. Yeah, yeah. It's similar to the Hollywood Walker Fenton breaking news, guys. I hate to tell you how you pay for that, guys. You request. Can I get the star? You pay. I don't know the fence. I don't know the father's shop. no. You know when you get a star in the book? It ain't like you won the Grammy. You copped it. It ain't like you didn't know that a two-time-a-fellin, they ain't teach you that. You gotta pay for the star, then you gotta pay a housekeeper to keep your shit up the bar. You can't come through and sign your own star for no reason.
43:21By the way, you buy that shit. So when they be like, oh, I'm surprised. How did I ever win the star? And you gotta pay more taxes on... Man, hell nah. They're gonna get mad at me because it ain't like you pull up you know you pull up and you be like oh my god they be acting like that let's go half on fuck that does somebody want to sponsor my star out there let's go half on the star on the joe and jada star can someone you know we legendary by the way I don't know if you know fuck rap this show right here is killing these people like they want to commit suicide we should hand out razor blades and cyanide to the other podcasters they're getting their ass whipped this shit is turnkey we open the door and now look of course season ASAP first was just on Dr.
44:11J was on it's standing room only in fact we have a list of people we love and we respect I heard other podcasters say yo it's hard to get well we don't we have a list of A1 celebrity standing by like put me in coach put me in the game and me and him gotta yeah alright he's cool I only heard him say one time hell no that was my man too I ain't gonna say you want me to say it you want me to say it you don't want me to say it that motherfucker was like hell no I was almost like oh my god what did he do to kiss it was a rapper he's just like he's not coming on I said, whoa. Damn, this ain't fucking with him.
45:01Let me just chill. I guess it's... No, Kelly's great. We got to give her props. She just left.
45:12No, Kelly, I like... No, Kelly, I like... No, Kelly, I like... He not being realistic. And listen, let me tell you something. I'm proud of everybody on this staff and the contributions y 'all bring to the game. Because if me and Kiss just did this on our own, we definitely wouldn't have had this kind of fluidity. No matter what, we could have hired cameraman, we could have this, this, whatever. But the way that shit coming in, like I said, turnkey, he got this. At first they was trying to compete. Now they like, yo, let them have it. This shit is out of control. Like these guys, we might bring the Pope on this shit.
45:49This shit is out of control right here. Well, you was with Obama, so you're going to make that happen first. let me tell you about the Obama okay Obama don't know how many Spanish people I made vote for Obama before he was famous okay when Obama's coming up I'm out there in every Spanish community Obama I went beyond beyond he will ever know trying to get the Latino community to vote for. I know his wife. I met her 10 times. I never met Obama. I wanted, if you go to any rich person's house, I don't give a fuck who, the real rich, the minute you walk in, they got Ronald Reagan, they got Trump, they got Clinton, they got, they got the, that's the biggest flex in any 20 million plus mansion, they got a president picture with them right there.
46:50I got a bunch of presidents. I got Bill Clinton with the T.S.'s on. He's in a little bit of an island scandal. But we chilling. We took him off the wall for now, right? Yo, yo, yo. Yo, yo, yo. But Obama always wanted that pick. The moral to the story is, I ain't going to lie to you. Puerto Ricans are really black. Maybe. Puerto Ricans are black. I'll break that down to you. That's a fact. There's black people that speak Spanish. Paul Mooney said the best. Google this clip. Paul Mooney said, they really niggas that talk Spanish. That's all it is. For sure. That's it. And so I go up to, I said, when I'm checking in, they go, Obama ain't there.
47:34I don't give a fuck if they had 500 secrets. I was getting that pick with Obama. I don't give a fuck. What did it take? I've been with nothing. I just had to walk up with the fluidity. Secret Service, all the niggas moved out the way like, hey, Joe, how are you? I said, yeah, I said, Mr. President. His wife embraced me. Yo, he's our guy, Fat Joe. I don't even know him. Obama knew who Fat Joe was like that. Ms. Obama was putting in like, yo, he's our guy, right? Thank you, Ms. Obama. Y 'all, let's take a pick. By the time I turned around, Obama kept trying to smile for a pick. Every basketball seven-footer was jumping right away.
48:14Hey, Mr. President. Hey, I mean, it was their shit. about 10 of them, it turned into Rich Player had to like start like, yo, my man, y 'all don't move the fuck out the way. Like, we got to get this pick. It was only a second before the ticket service was like, yo, enough, enough. Like, and I wasn't going to get my pick. Every seven footer jumped in front of me. Like, I was like, yo, what type of shit? Everybody wanted that joint, but I got it. I got it. You know what I'm saying? I waited 20 years for that, but I was definitely going straight and that all Garcia versus Barrios? He looking like he back in his bag a little, right?
48:53Yeah, tell him get in his bag so we can fight. And you want to fight him? I want to fight all these guys. You name him, I fight him. So, yeah, I think we can make a fight happen. I think that might be next, but people would love to see that. Man, it's the same fucking shit that y 'all already know. Take away the fucking left hook. you take away his left hook he's cooked move this way you know last time I had to fucking dude up I said yo I'm talking shit
49:27Ryan Garcia and my man let me ask you the question what's my man and I'm a fan right you gotta know his name you know I don't know shit man what the fuck is your problem him. You know, I'll explain him and you'll tell me who. But I know him. Devin Haney, right? Ever since he got touched, he been fighting scared. That is not a lie. That is not nothing he's doing. He's still so talented to beat these guys. But he been, somebody rung his bell to where the man not the same. He not the same after, even though he won the bell, even though he won the last two, three fights, even though this he's fighting scared I don't like that I don't look what do you think about Devin Haney I think that a scared man is a man that's kind of hard to beat sometimes because when they scared they scariness can help them out in the ring so I mean I think he'll he'll solid fighter he's not a bad fighter so he definitely knows what he's doing his dad gonna make sure he comes in shape so if they want to make it happen, I'm down.
50:44But I know for... Oh, shit. I didn't know we was out here brokering fights. Yo, Devin Haney, what's up? Hard Rock Betts. Yo, Devin Haney. But it got to... You been called out, beloved. It got to make sense, so as long as the business and everything makes sense with it, we can make the fight happen. Now I don't respect your answer because I think you want to fight him for the big payday. Nah, it ain't the payday. It's the fact that at the end of the day, me and him is not at the same weight class. So it got to make sense. I would have to go up. You got to come down. Well, really, because now people kind of overrate that big fights need belts and big fights don't need belts.
51:25Sometimes you can meet in the middle. I would love to see that. Canelo and Floyd. I respect that fight. Canelo and Floyd, they fought at 152. What music motivates you? Give me a little five playlist. It ain't got to be the greatest of all time. you in the locker room you getting ready for prom time I don't give a fuck what they say they big on MMA they acting like boxing fell off but when boxing got a fight it's must see TV every barn, every bar every gym I don't give a fuck where you at you watching that shit as much as you try to diss boxing what are you playing in your headphones on your locker room I'm probably playing like some Meek or probably some 50.
52:13Old Jay-Z.
52:18Tupac. Kiss. Hurt. I'll be going through different kind of music. Last time I knocked the nigga out, I was playing Nori. What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? What? We driving up to the one-on-one. What? What? What? What? Yo, I told a story. I had to fight a guy. He was on America's Most Wanted. So we had to... He's not lying. He's not lying. He's not lying. I got a hundred... He's telling it. There's no flag. It's real shit. He was on America's Most Wanted. He ain't lying. Fat Joe out of shape. I had to fight this guy to eliminate the... You know, the real... You know what I'm saying?
53:06So it was like, yo, you got to fight him. The guy was cocked, diesel, and shit and everything, man. I pulled up with that. You fucking with Joe Craig, man. I don't want to violate because he was the perfect gentleman about it. He was a perfect gentleman about it, but I pulled up. He saw Rich lately and he said, yo, man, I like you. He didn't say my name. He texted me and told me. You know what it takes to fight a guy on America's Most Wanted and you're a famous rapper? Imagine if I got my ass what? That shit would have went beyond violence. You would have been on American.
53:42You knocked him up? I beat him up bad. Bad. It was just my fluidity was a little bit, you know. But I thought I was going to lose. How about that? Oh yeah, that's how it goes. I come from my brother, anybody I know, we too old for somebody who grew up with us. Was you scared? No, I wasn't. I'm never scared. Ever, ever, ever, ever. One time I had an argument with a promoter in Paris, and he brought in like 10 African dudes. They locked the door. Like, I'm locked up. I got up and was like, yo, let's get it popping. My DJ always tell me that story. He said, yo, crack. The dudes came up in there with the gloves and all that, and all I remember is you got up and you was like, yo, so what we doing?
54:28Let's get it popping in this bitch. I've been fighting my whole life. The point is, I thought he was going to win because he's in perfect shape. I'm really fat, fat Joe. But I come from watching my brother and my brother, I got a story for y 'all. The Golden Gun. I can't tell a story. Gotta finish this one. I come from whoever gets knocked out gets knocked out. So I stand toe to toe. You knock me out. Nothing I can do. Congratulations. I knock you out. It is what it is. That's it. Toe to toe. I used to watch my brother fight guys toe to toe whoever got knocked out got knocked out it wasn't no bullshit i'll tell you a funny story so nobody believes me right nobody believes me i keep trying to tell them we was the wildest kids in our age group but we had no money so the kingpins at the time before i became kingpin kingpins at the time used to come and get fat joey to beat up the guys they have beef with me.
55:31So they'll come and be like, yo, we got a Pele for you. We got three pair Jordans. We need you to put it on these guys, right? So this one kingpin who was like ahead of his time, he used to wear Hermes boots, all type of shit. He'd come get me. He'd say, yo, Joe, I got a problem. I'm gonna buy you a Pele. That was a cheap hire, too. It was like three pair Jordans, a Pele. Come on. And I never cared. I really never cared about human. I really didn't care, right? So I'm with him. I go over and I'm going to tell you that, Av, y 'all, it was 182nd and Creston and little did I know, blah, no, no, big dope.
56:11So I go over there. He start arguing with the guy. Now, sometimes no matter how Kingpin, no matter how much dudes you kill, my man Stacey in jail still for 37 years because they knew he was a killer, but they fronted on him in this building and he couldn't take it. So he went over there, emptied it out on his own hood. Sometimes you don't want to do that to the guys you grew up with, and they take advantage of that. So I go over there, and I'm like, this guy's such a kingpin. I'm like, yeah, he could just kill this guy. Like, why is he even arguing with him? But he's from that block. So the guy's talking to him.
56:47The guy don't even think about me. He not even looking my way. He like, yo, this, this, that, arguing with him. And I punched that guy in his chin so hard. He went up. Fluidity on the floor, over the bike. Boom! I'm like, I'm flubby fat Joe. I'm like this. He fall over the bike, I knock him out. Lucky! I'm going to give it to y 'all now. One of these second and credit. I'm breaking a myth. Hold up. Lucky I knock him out. So the guy I go with is pushing me. Like, Joe, let's go. Joe, let's go. Yo, Joe, let's go. He's taking me to the concourse and I'm still trying to front. He's like, let's go. He throw me in the cab.
57:26I get out of there. Little do I know that this guy was four-time Golden Glove champ, the guy I knocked out. And the man for 20 years been sending me. I mean, he's old now, but he was sending me messages. Tell Fat Joey, you owe me the fair one. Tell Fat Joey, you owe me the fair one. Did he throw his shit up? No, I snuffed him. Oh, you got out. Blindsided. Cheated. Whatever the fuck you want. Over there, they was like, in his hood? Yo, but Fat Joe got his. He knocked out. Stock on 137. The man is a four-time Fat Joe. All squared up one-on-one. They was telling... I got a question for y 'all. He begged every human being that knew me for 20 years, like, please.
58:10I got a question for y 'all. Do y 'all still be going to the studio nowadays? He does. He there every day. I'm going after this. Okay, now I just was asking because I know like once I'm done boxing, I don't know if it's going to be like hard and shit to like stay out of the gym. Nah, you gonna go. This is their lifestyle. This is their lifestyle, yeah. You know, bust around, stay in the fucking studio every day for the rest of his life. I don't know how to explain it to you. The studio is$3 ,000 a night. Shit like that. You don't own your own studio. Yeah. You got his own studio. Yeah, yeah. Talk to that shit.
58:49There's a guy in the fireplace. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah. I don't have a studio. The next generation? Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hope, though.
