1:58Shannon Sharpe:Paul Pierce has an idea for the NBA as it pertains to the three-point line. Let's take a listen to what he had to say on the truth. This is what I think they should do.

2:08Chad Johnson:This is what I honestly think they should do with the three-point line. I think the three-point line should be an LED line that just comes and goes. You can turn it off and turn it back on at certain times of the game. Like, if you're down 10 or 3 minutes in the 4 minutes, you know It's like trying to have a 4 point play It should be on because it's just ridiculous how I've watched games where the next 3 minutes were all 3s. Like, I think it should just turn on, like, somebody could just be in there. You get 48 minutes a game, the 3 point line should be on like 30 minutes.

2:46Shannon Sharpe:It sounds like the Chinese deal

2:47Chad Johnson:Where like at the end of the game

2:48Shannon Sharpe:The three point line turns to a four point line

2:50Chad Johnson:Then we gonna see who got game Then you gonna have to get buckets now You ain't gonna be just launching You gonna have to get money

3:01Shannon Sharpe:They had that in the all star game They had that in the all star game You was down And so for like four minutes All the points that you scored were double So if you hit a two point it was four If you hit a three, it was six. Yeah, big day.

3:16Chad Johnson:Look, you can do that in an all-star game, but they not messing. You ain't doing that in the regular season. They not messing up. Not in the regular season. Here's the game that we have to put in no LED light three-point line. Nah. Nah, they not doing all that. All-star weekend, yeah.

3:33Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Nah, don't give them no idea because it was competitive. We don't want nobody to start launching a threes again. Hell no. I say no to that idea. Absolutely not. We finally got a competitive game. Yeah. And the ratings indicated, you know, reflected that.

3:51Chad Johnson:Right.

3:51Shannon Sharpe:Now we good. Don't go tinkering with that. Pat Riley says he wishes NBA coaches still wore suits and ties. I think when the fans look over there on the sidelines, they want to see someone that looks like a leader.

4:06Chad Johnson:Joe, what are your take on this? Hey, that's that old school right there, boy. Pat old school. They buy the book. You know, I understand where he's coming from, but in today's world, man, everybody wants comfort. They let these coaches, they let players get away with just, you know, walking around being comfort. The dress code is not enforced how it used to be on Kaojo. You know what I mean? Now guys have took fashion to a whole entirely another level. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They branding now. Yeah. And you don't see no coaches in suit and tie. There don't be no coaches in suit. Man, we trying to sell merchandise.

4:45Chad Johnson:We ain't trying to sell no damn

4:46Shannon Sharpe:suits. I wish you would bring your ass.

4:48Chad Johnson:Ocho, we marketed

4:50Shannon Sharpe:this stuff. You see the gear that they got on? We didn't sell that. We don't sell no suits. We don't work for Louis Vuitton and Giorgio Armani or Hugo Boss.

4:58Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, I think, you know what? I'm not sure what's wrong with Pat. I continue to hear the stories about how he's still old school. Sometimes I want to believe it. Sometimes I don't, but hearing it from you guys, hearing it from former players, now hearing it, this, you know, coach is back in suits in 2026 on the sideline. Like, I mean, I'm not sure. Pat is disconnected. He's disconnected from reality. He's disconnected to how much the game has evolved. It's not the 80s. It's not the 90s. But what can I say? Do you know how much of that gear, how much

5:30Shannon Sharpe:gear they sell? They weren't selling merchandise, Ocho, back then. Back then. Dan Reeves and Mike Dick, a lot of coaches, Coach Reeves, excuse me, Coach Landry, there are a lot of coaches that used to wear suits on the sidelines. But there's something called, you know, this merchandise. Hey, they sell stuff. Why you think they have that pink? They have mental health month and they have some of the service and they have breast cancer awareness. They sell that stuff.

5:55Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, that's why the coaches wear it.

5:57Shannon Sharpe:Oh, kids see that, like, I want that hoodie. I want that sweat. That coach has on, yep.

6:03Iso Joe Johnson:Yes. Yes, yep.

6:04Shannon Sharpe:You think the NFL finna let these coaches wear suits on the sidelines?

6:08Iso Joe Johnson:Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Uh-uh.

6:09Shannon Sharpe:They used to, hold on. They, I remember when they cut out, you had to wear sweats and stuff, and you had to wear team issue stuff on the sidelines. Because before you guys come out there with their jeans on, they'd be all night in silk shirts and gold and jewelry flasks. Yeah. Hold on.

6:26Chad Johnson:So NFL coaches used to wear suits?

6:29Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah.

6:30Chad Johnson:Yeah.

6:32Iso Joe Johnson:And he was a coach from the Chiefs. Every time from the Chiefs back in the day, always had on the suit.

6:36Shannon Sharpe:Hank Stram.

6:37Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, yeah. Always screaming at somebody.

6:41Shannon Sharpe:No, it would have been in the summer, but from like September until it got cold. But Coach Reed would have a sweater vest on up on the upper of his jacket. Coach Reed, yeah. But no, it's a different time now, and they're not going back. And these players are brands now. They're trying to get the most fashionable thing. They're coming in there with a Goyard bag, and they got Burke and, you know, Hermes, and they got this, and they got their outfits on. Shea and everybody trying to get the GQ, talking about the most fashionable NFL player, the most fashionable NBA player. It's a different. It ain't going back.

7:21Shannon Sharpe:These guys, I mean, Joe, you remember, you couldn't even buy no tees. All the tall tees, Allen Adams and them ball. Bro, you need an extra large. What you doing with a 4X, 5X tee, bro? Hey,

17:27Chad Johnson:Yeah.

17:28Shannon Sharpe:Peterson has only played 16 of the Jayhawks' 27 games this season. Peterson never mentioned subbing himself out during the Oklahoma State game. Joe, is he too much of a liability to be taking number one overall? Are they going to, you know, disregard the red flags because he is so immensely talented?

17:49Chad Johnson:It's alarming, Uncle Ocho. It's alarming if you ask me. It's a lot of basketball left to play, but it's going to be tough for him to go number one, man, considering, you know, if this continues, if he can't finish out the season or he continue to miss games or continue to, you know, only play a first half, like, yes, man, teams are not gonna bank on that. Like I said, you can't even play 30 games in college. How are you gonna play 82? 82, yeah. In the NBA. Like, you know what I'm saying? So you can't be surprised. So, and the fact that the draft is so deep, man, it's other guys that's worthy of that number one pick.

18:29Chad Johnson:if y 'all just want me to be 100. And that's the...

18:32Shannon Sharpe:Here's the thing, Ocho. You want the nice, pretty car, or you want the one that's not as pretty but more reliable? Liable. Because the nice, pretty one might put your ass down side the road. It might not even crank to get your ass to work. But you know that reliable one. Ain't nobody gonna beat you in the eye. Ain't nobody gonna be jumping up when you pull up. But guess what? You gonna be where you're supposed to be on time. Hello.

18:55Iso Joe Johnson:Mr. Peterson hurt, though, Joe?

18:57Chad Johnson:I think he's been dealing with, like they say, cramps or things of that sort. I don't really know why he's been coming out of games or why he hasn't been playing. I can't even answer that, Ocho. But, you know, the fact that his coach comes out and says that he don't even know why, then, yeah. At this point, we just kind of got to let it play out.

19:16Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, that's tough. That's tough. When your coach ain't got your back and he has no reason to understand why you're doing it, that's going to be tough. but y 'all told me he was the best thing coming out.

19:28Shannon Sharpe:I mean, but here's the thing. I mean, DeBonza is just as good. And guess what? BYU? Yeah. Okay. And he reliable. He going to play. Cameron Boozer. You know the stock that you know his dad. So you know he good stock. And he doing it. Double, double. Walking double, double. Right. Yeah. It's some guys worthy that number one pick, man. Yeah, absolutely. He's not no LeBron. He's not no Zion. He's not that head and heels over everybody else that you're like, I don't give a damn what he did. I'm taking it. He's not that.

20:06Chad Johnson:Nah. And like I say, y 'all know Marsha Madness, obviously. It's right here around the corner. So there's still a lot of ball left to play. And these guys are going to be jockeying for position. They are going to be jockeying for their number one spot. If y 'all ask me personally, I like A.J. DeBasca, man. I like Ocho. I've seen him in person. The boy's 6 '9". He loves to play the game. And his attributes in making guys around him better, shooting a three, going off the dribble. He has a professional game right now to this day. Like when you watch him play, you can see him in the pros dominating.

20:43Chad Johnson:Right.

20:43Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. I almost had a triple-double the other night. Like, look, I love the talent, but, man, it's just – and I think now, Ochoa, you know this, it's getting harder and harder for teams to ignore red flags because when they pop back up, people say, see, you saw all the signs. Yeah. You saw every last one of the signs, and you ignored it. And all he's doing, what he's always done. What he's done, yeah. So you shouldn't be surprised that he's doing in the NBA what he's done in college because that's what he knows.

21:19Chad Johnson:Absolutely. Absolutely.

21:21Shannon Sharpe:So it's going to be interesting. Ben Simmons says he's not sure Darren Peterson would go number one anymore. It's giving him Ben Simmons flashback. He believes A.J. DeBonza is a safer pick. Jay Billis said shutting it down would be easy way to go and the NBA would take him number one trying to play is what's causing these speculative issues about his character. I don't find it fair. But the problem is, if you're hurt, sit down. Because if you go out there and you play 10 minutes, 15 minutes, Ocho, Joe, you know what's going to happen.

22:01Chad Johnson:Now when they deem you to be the number one pick, it's just distasteful for a lot of people who love watching the game of basketball and the people who projected him to be a number one pick, to just see him for 10, 15 minutes. Yeah, you better off not playing versus just going out there and playing 10, 15, 20 minutes. Yeah, I agree. Hey, I seen what Dick Vitale was saying that he thought Kansas would probably be a little better without him. Okay, Ocho. Because they've been playing good basketball. Yeah, because I don't know what I'm going to get.

22:34Shannon Sharpe:The in and out of the lineup, I think I got, okay, I'm playing. I'm playing, and then guess what? He goes out. Now I don't have him. Right. When I was counting on having him at least 30 to 35 minutes, now I get him for 20 minutes.

22:48Chad Johnson:Right.

22:49Shannon Sharpe:What am I supposed to do with that? And a lot of the offense is built around him. Yeah, yeah.

22:54Chad Johnson:And it's tough because when he's not playing, they got other guys who fill in, step up, play great. They still win games. And then when he comes back, you know, it's kind of everything about Peterson. So, you know, it kind of rubbed guys the wrong way. You know, y 'all can kind of imagine what that's like. damn yeah

23:14Shannon Sharpe:but people better get a ride if they look here son if you hurt shut it down hey Joe this how I'm gonna do you

23:22Iso Joe Johnson:Joe here you go hey hey Joe I'm gonna bring it here and come on back home come on

23:31Chad Johnson:hey Joe

23:33Iso Joe Johnson:I'm gonna have your ass on skates out there what

26:51Shannon Sharpe:At this one hotel in Memphis, and this day's back. We stopped staying there because their sprinklers just went off for no reason in the room. Damn. Drenched all of Andrew Bogut's stuff. They didn't do anything about it. So we switched hotels then, right? So it's been an issue. Joe, what's going on in Memphis?

27:09Chad Johnson:Man. Okay. Y 'all know Memphis used to have the Peabody. I don't know if y 'all know. They used to have the hotel called the Peabody. That's where everybody used to stay. So right across from the Peabody, they built this hotel, the Westin. They built the Western right across, and the Western's pretty nice. Yeah. That's about the only hotel they got in Memphis. That's it? It's right across the street from the stadium, from where the Grizzlies play. Right. But that's like the only hotel that they have in Memphis for real, like four - or five-star hotel. I know that's where we stayed pretty much every time.

27:42Chad Johnson:You know, when I played on the NBA team, every time we traveled to Memphis, you know, we stayed at the Western. Right. I mean, it's Memphis, man. it's like, you know, it's a lot go down.

27:53Iso Joe Johnson:I mean, that's not good, Joe, you know? I mean, now you get, I mean, you know, NBA players are giving Memphis a bad name, obviously giving the hotel a bad name as well, as if they not, they don't have, they rated four, five-star hotel for a reason, but the feedback on the hotel is giving two three-star.

28:12Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, yeah. Some of Memphis' activities is giving Memphis a bad name. Hello. They got to do the damn hotel. I promise you. The people that do that, that ruckus, they ain't staying in the motel.

28:23Iso Joe Johnson:Right, right, right, right. So, but I want to go to Memphis and get me some barbecue.

28:30Shannon Sharpe:Man, I'm telling you. Ocho. Yo. Kenya Martin says, he ain't paying. He tweeted. I ain't paying up. Now what? Yeah, I like that. I like that. That's good energy. That's good energy. He also said, he doesn't seem scared of your challenge. You too small, dude. 5 '10", they gonna cut it. Wow. Get him to your face off. Who we thought was 5 '10"? Wow.

30:40Iso Joe Johnson:I know. Hey, but listen, my daughter, you know, she in nursing school, the nursing program at University of Miami is pretty hefty. It's a hefty price. You think it's more expensive than medical school? I don't know. Hey, listen. So you think being a nurse

30:58Shannon Sharpe:is more expensive than becoming a doctor?

31:00Iso Joe Johnson:I mean, well, she's looking to become a doctor as well.

31:03Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Yeah, it's expensive. Yeah, I mean, my daughter's in residency. She got two years left. I mean, I'd like to be able to help out.

31:10Iso Joe Johnson:Well, hold on. How many years you got to do? Like four, right?

31:14Shannon Sharpe:she did four she did four of undergrads she did three in a masters program she did four and now she got to do another three well shoot well you done covered it all this time you might as well go ahead you know money jumped funny a couple months ago hey listen hey Joe he done covered it all this time hey listen I was waiting for that 5900 to come in she called me and said she needed the new iPhone 17 plus?

31:45Chad Johnson:I said, well, baby, you know. Hey, why is it when somebody owe you, they always go to talking about what they had to take care of them for themselves. Man, a man.

31:56Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, Joe, it wasn't for me. You know, it's for the kids, Joe. It's for the kid. But you know, all boys, all boys you ever say, my daughter is in a nursing program at University of Miami. And boy, boy, they don't play over there with them prices, boy. They don't play, oh, Joe. Oh, my God. But listen, whatever she want to do, daddy going to make it happen. Whatever she want to do, even if it's the money I owe somebody.

32:22Shannon Sharpe:See, you know what I'm saying, Joe? Now you're going to jump in. I'm going to take the money. I owe somebody.

32:26Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, no, I got you, though. Hey, one thing about it, Joe. As long as I owe him, he ain't going to never be broke.

32:32Shannon Sharpe:But my daughter going to be home, and she ain't got no money. I can't send no money, you know? I got you. Pick up a little knickknack.

32:38Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, I slide a little something to you.

32:43Shannon Sharpe:Oh, Joe. They must have heard us. After 11 years, Netflix will present Floyd Mayweather versus Manny Pacquiao. Part two. In Vegas, September 19, 2026. The first flight between the duo in 2015 generated a record-breaking 4.6 million U.S. pay-per-view buys. And a live gate money with ticket sales was a staggering$72 million. dollars. Floyd has been retired for nine years while Manny just fought several months ago against Mario Barrios. I told you. And Manny thought he won the fight. I told you.

33:21Iso Joe Johnson:I told you.

33:23Shannon Sharpe:My only thing is Ocho, Floyd has been able to hang his hat on that zero. If the zero is gone and a lot of people, because here's the thing, you can only fool the people for so long. He loses. Well, we already saw him lost. Because I think a lot of people, yeah, he was a phenomenal fighter. I didn't tune in to watch him lose. I tuned in to watch him beat somebody's ass. But a lot of people did tune in, Ocho, because they wanted to see I saw him lose. Absolutely.

33:53Iso Joe Johnson:And that's the great thing. That's the great thing about Mayweather doing his career is billing yourself up as the villain and being able to command such enormous paydays because the people, the majority of the people tuning in are tuning in to hope you fail and they hope 50 times and all 50 times you debunked them right in their hopes in their wishes so again now far removed outside of your prime you're fighting Manny Pacquiao again what is everybody going to tune in to see whether you 48 58 68 finally is it the time when we finally get to see the pound for pound, one of the greatest of all time, do we finally get to see that asterisk where he gets the loss finally?

34:43Iso Joe Johnson:Everybody gonna tune in to see.

34:46Shannon Sharpe:Is that the sphere?

34:47Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah. Ooh, that's gonna be nice.

34:50Shannon Sharpe:Have you ever been to the sphere? Have you been there yet, Ocho?

34:52Iso Joe Johnson:Nah, nah, nah. I walked on the outside, though. I walked on the outside. That was enough for me.

34:57Shannon Sharpe:It's crazy, Joe.

34:58Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, you went to the MMA thing, right? UFC fight.

35:01Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, I went to the UFC fight there.

35:03Chad Johnson:Hey, well, what's up, man? We gonna go to the fight? We can make it happen.

35:08Iso Joe Johnson:Okay, what's up? It's in September, I'm ready. You ain't gotta ask me twice. I get my outfit together now.

35:17Shannon Sharpe:Man, I like that, man. I would like to put$5 ,900 down towards something. You don't get put it on layaway, Joe.

35:25Chad Johnson:Hey, listen, I ain't gonna lie to you. I don't really know how I feel about it.

35:31Iso Joe Johnson:Talk to me, talk to me, Joe.

35:32Chad Johnson:I'm a huge fan of Floyd and Pacquiao I don't think Floyd gonna get in that ring unless he knows that he can be somewhat Ankin Ocho of what he's been but you know when you ain't boxing a while man this ain't you know everything is repetition reps like it's different man it's different

35:53Iso Joe Johnson:hey Joe and Ankin I think we have to realize we have to understand and for those in the chat that are watching now we know we talk about the Floyd Mayweather retiring, but we have to understand this is the same Floyd Mayweather that stays active even when he's not fighting. He's always in the gym. He's still always training. So even if Floyd Mayweather of old is still a shell of himself, even at 40 years old, a shell of himself Floyd Mayweather is still better than most based on who he once was. Based on who he once was. Even if he's not the Floyd Mayweather in his prime, and that's okay. Even if his spidey senses aren't the same as they used to be.

36:32Iso Joe Johnson:He can still do one thing. He can still box. He can still fight. He can still protect himself. He still has defense. He might be a millisecond slower. But still. Talk to me.

36:44Shannon Sharpe:A millisecond slower. It makes a difference.

36:48Iso Joe Johnson:But also, you're fighting someone that Jess has experienced, that had just as much wear and tear as you do too.

36:56Chad Johnson:Yeah.

36:57Iso Joe Johnson:I think it kind of evens out.

36:59Chad Johnson:this ain't like no exhibition this is a real fight

37:03Iso Joe Johnson:it's the real deal real deal

37:07Shannon Sharpe:but the thing is the Ocho he fights Pacquiao then he fights what next I mean Floyd he gonna wait I'm sure Manning can make 147 hell man probably 137

37:22Chad Johnson:I wonder how much

37:23Shannon Sharpe:Floyd walk around waiting 150 so it ain't nothing for him to drop 3-5 Three pounds, yep. What y 'all think the payday gonna be? This league played, well, you see where they played Jake Paul and Mike Tyson. They played Jake Paul and Anthony Joshua. He might clear 300. Damn.

37:43Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah. He might clear 300. And you know who else is a good one, too?

37:48Chad Johnson:Who is that?

37:49Iso Joe Johnson:I don't know where he goes from after that fight. I would make one more. I just don't know what it would be. Obviously, you said you didn't like the names that I threw out there, obviously, for obvious reasons because of, you know, the weight. And one being at the pinnacle and the top, you know, in his career and just defeating Canelo. But I'm talking about being able to grab the most and maximizing these last two shots in the ring. I'm just saying.

38:18Shannon Sharpe:Oh, you talking about you on Florida fight, bud? Man, come on.

38:23Iso Joe Johnson:I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know. Hey, Joe, I said it the other night, and everybody laughed at me. I said three names. Now, all of a sudden, two days later, one of those names is the ones he's fighting because I'm understanding the only way to maximize as much, if you're having financial problems and being able to recoup what you're suing for, hell, he's suing Al Heyman for 3040 and whatever company it might be. I don't know. Showtime, 340. Showtime, 340. Hell, he going to clear that 300 right now against Pacquiao. so if you if you want to go again and be able to get another cash grab canelo rematch i'm i'm just saying even if there's a weight discrepancy i mean what do we do in that situation

39:08Shannon Sharpe:i'm i'm just i'm just throwing out there me personally uh uh ocho i don't think i don't think i don't think um canelo is interested in dropping the weight floyd can't come man ain't no way in hell floyd ain't never waiting to 160 he only fought one fight he fought daily

39:24Iso Joe Johnson:for you at 154 and he was under that weight yeah i i listen i i'm i'm just i know i understand i understand what you mean i understand what you're saying but i'm just saying you know based on the circumstance and situations that i'm assuming he may be in that's all that's all yeah yeah i mean

39:42Shannon Sharpe:i hope it's not true i got a question too yeah hey now we talk about a fight in september at the

39:49Iso Joe Johnson:spear right now this is good this is nice now i understand this is a professional fight what y 'all think about your boy being on the undercard

39:57Shannon Sharpe:a spear is a round shape that's what i said the spear no spear is what you throw i said the spear

40:10Iso Joe Johnson:yeah it's spelled s-p-h-e-r-e-r-e yes i said i said spear fear no see oh you know i talk country now so it's hard for you to understand hey but listen

40:22Chad Johnson:who you think about fighting huh who you think about fighting on the undercard i don't know hey

40:28Iso Joe Johnson:joe it got to be somebody with a with a boxing back i'm not talking about no no celebs or nothing like that like i need to get in there and go joe what you think joe just depending on who you fighting though joe i don't i don't like that answer joe i need i need a little more confidence from you, Joe.

40:45Shannon Sharpe:Okay, what about, I'll tell you what, what about Florida Roy Jones?

40:52Iso Joe Johnson:No. No, that's not going to generate what he's trying to do. It's not going to generate the revenue he's trying to. Listen, you remember when I talked about that, when I said those three names, I said it's going to have to be someone where he's going to have to take a chance. You got to take a chance because you need people to be tuned in to see, all right, he has a chance he can lose.

41:13Shannon Sharpe:Oh, you think he ain't got no chance to lose against Roy, huh?

41:19Chad Johnson:Nah, I don't. You know what? They kind of been having a little back and forth, ain't they? That's why I threw it out there. Okay, yeah, I see where you're going with this. I see where you're going with this.

41:30Shannon Sharpe:All right.

41:30Chad Johnson:No.

41:32Shannon Sharpe:I tell you what, Ocho, what about you box Emmanuel Acho?

41:36Iso Joe Johnson:No, I said a real fighter. Hey. Hey. Hey. Nah, nah, nah. I can't. Nah, nah.

41:45Chad Johnson:Ocho, you been training like that?

41:47Iso Joe Johnson:I ain't stopped yet. I ain't stopped yet, Joe. Oh, Lord have mercy. I ain't. I ain't. Hey, Unk be laughing. He know I train every day. I do my soccer. I do my soccer in the mornings, and I do boxing in the evening.

42:01Chad Johnson:And then when you do your Zumba? Because you a Zumba instructor. When you do it?

42:04Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, that's on Wednesdays and Fridays, Joe.

42:07Chad Johnson:Oh, God.

42:08Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, on South Beach. Anytime you down here in Miami, you can come check my class out.

42:12Chad Johnson:Okay.

42:12Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, I do it right on Nicki Beach.

42:20Chad Johnson:What you brainstorming over there?

42:23Shannon Sharpe:What you think about? What about Floyd and Ryan Garcia?

42:28Chad Johnson:Ooh.

42:32Shannon Sharpe:You like that one?

42:35Chad Johnson:Mm-hmm. I think he'll probably, I think Florida take that, he'll take that in a heartbeat. Man, listen.

42:44Shannon Sharpe:And make 147 easy. I'm not worried about him making the weight. At Florida, he never had no weight problem.

42:51Iso Joe Johnson:No, that's not the problem. That's not the problem at all. Damn.

42:58Shannon Sharpe:Who you, I mean. Obviously, he can't fight Shakur. He can't fight, you know, he can't fight somebody like that.

43:06Chad Johnson:No.

43:07Shannon Sharpe:I don't think he can fight Bud.

43:10Chad Johnson:Me neither.

43:15Shannon Sharpe:because bud you know i heard bud on the pod you know it's like well who you want me to fight who's out there for me to fight now i'm sure if turkeys say look here bud we're gonna put this thing together you and floyd but like oh how much a hundred okay

43:29Chad Johnson:what about what about uh what about if he fall boots i'm talking about i ain't talking about floyd i'm talking about uh bud yeah it ain't gonna money that fight yeah he's not gonna take

43:41Iso Joe Johnson:he's not going to take the chance.

43:44Shannon Sharpe:Boots ain't a big enough name. See, in order for you to generate a fight, you got to get casuals to watch it. The hardcore people like Ocho gonna watch it. Ocho gonna watch two kangaroos fight because he like fighting.

44:03Shannon Sharpe:So, you discount Ocho.

44:09Shannon Sharpe:Ocho, you know, look I think I think Ryan Garcia and Floyd makes sense

44:20Shannon Sharpe:I don't think there's no chance in hell that Conor could ever get back down to 150 155

44:25Iso Joe Johnson:too big right now yeah

44:27Shannon Sharpe:God yeah he's huge

44:31Iso Joe Johnson:I mean knowing him I mean with his training background and you know background I'm assuming he could if the potential of Conor McGregor, Floyd too? What happened? He could probably get down. He just has to lose all that damn muscle.

44:45Shannon Sharpe:Nah. And man, when you lose muscle, man, you remember what happened with Roy? Roy was never the same. When he went up to fight Ruiz, he beat Ruiz at 193 and he had to drop all that weight. He cut all muscle. He was never the same. He'll tell you. He was never the same after he beat Ruiz.

45:14Shannon Sharpe:I definitely think that's a fight we should probably be in attendance for

45:19Iso Joe Johnson:okay

45:19Chad Johnson:are we going to the fight? I went to the one where he fought Ricky Haddon Floyd fought Ricky Haddon yeah boy and he hit him into that turnbuckle

45:30Iso Joe Johnson:that wasn't nothing but a check hook joke

45:33Chad Johnson:and he timed it

45:34Iso Joe Johnson:beautiful check hook tying it perfectly too. Excuse me. Take that with you.

45:39Shannon Sharpe:Walked it right into it. I've been to a few. They talk about Tank and Floyd. Tank got to get some issues resolved first. I mean, Tank might be on the shelf for a minute. He got to get some issues resolved, get everything behind him, and then he can think about fighting. Right now, he might be fighting for his freedom. Right.

45:58Chad Johnson:I agree.

45:59Shannon Sharpe:He need to get those issues resolved. He gets those issues resolved. he's plenty young enough cause he's an exciting fighter you know he got dynamite in his hands he can end the fight he can turn he can turn him you know he can make you short circuit quick

46:16Chad Johnson:cut your lights out quick

46:19Iso Joe Johnson:but I think that make the most sense to me Floyd next two fights handle your business against Pacquiao and find a way to get the ball rolling McGregor too how many fights

46:33Chad Johnson:what if he just want to do this

46:35Iso Joe Johnson:I would say do 3 I do 3 max find a way to get to 53 and 0 find a way to get to 53 and 0 maximize the next 3 years maybe 2 maybe 3 maybe 2 them 3 fights I'm not sure the 3rd person would be but the 3rd person I fight would be the biggest chance I'd have to take where there's a huge chance I could lose. Well, if you fight Bud, it's going to happen. Huh? If you fight Bud, it's going to happen. Leave Bud alone. Hey, I'm just, hey, get the world, get the people they want to see. It'll be a big payday one in Ocho. It'll be bigger than the Pacquiao one, and it'll be bigger than the next McGregor one, that third one.

47:21Shannon Sharpe:And then, and then what you call it, I mean, because look, it's hard to overlap eras, but when you got a guy that's a three-division, undisputed champ in the four-bed era. And that's what Bud is. He's a three-division, undisputed, in the four-bed era.

47:43Iso Joe Johnson:Listen to me. I'm telling you, Joe. Based on the circumstance and the situation that we are assuming, based on reports that Floyd might be in, he can get the most, almost topping what he's already made when he was fighting in his prime. in a short amount of time Pacquiao Mayweather and going a goddamn limb with Bud I'm just saying well he

48:08Shannon Sharpe:can only fight one time he can only fight once this year because he's not fighting till September right right it's out of the question one fight in 26 right I'm not

48:16Iso Joe Johnson:saying to double it up back to back I'm just saying those three in a in a matter of time that you see you know you see suitable

48:25Chad Johnson:I think you gotta

48:26Iso Joe Johnson:You got to understand, Floyd don't take much punishment either.

48:29Chad Johnson:He don't take much punishment.

48:31Shannon Sharpe:I think it's going to take much punishment. We don't know if he's going to take those reflexes to slow down. So it's going to be interesting to see, but I'm going to be there to see it. We'll be there to see it.

48:40Chad Johnson:Right. Yeah. I'm going to be fighting.

48:42Iso Joe Johnson:Don't forget that, huh? Hey, Joe.

48:46Chad Johnson:What's up, bro?

48:47Iso Joe Johnson:It's going to be good, man. I'm telling you. I'm going to represent Nightcap to the fullest, bro. Hey, Joe, I know I do a lot of talking, Joe, but you know in that ring, boy, I'm nice, boy. I've been training the past six years now.

48:56Chad Johnson:Okay. I got you.

48:58Iso Joe Johnson:I talk a good one, but these hands talk one too.

49:01Chad Johnson:I'm going to follow your lead on this one. I'm going to follow your lead.

49:04Iso Joe Johnson:That's all I ask for you, Joe. That's all I ask.

49:06Chad Johnson:I got you. I'm going to back you up, bro.

49:08Shannon Sharpe:I wonder who's going to be on the undercard, though.

49:10Iso Joe Johnson:I just told you, huh? I'm going to call Leonard. I'm going to call Eleanor. I'm going to call Eleanor.

49:16Chad Johnson:We're going to have to hit Brona or something. Maybe you fight Adrian Brona. Ooh. Ooh.

49:23Iso Joe Johnson:That's a good one. Yeah. That's a good, hey. Hey, now that's an exciting, that's exciting. Hey, Joe, you laughing. Hey, Joe, you laughing. I ain't gonna lie. I was getting cooked out there.

49:38Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, that'd be a good one, though.

49:41Chad Johnson:Yeah.

49:42Iso Joe Johnson:That'd be a good one.

49:43Chad Johnson:Ocho, you get out there with Broner? Boy, you telling me?

49:46Iso Joe Johnson:Nah, not me, man. Hell, nah.

49:48Chad Johnson:What you mean? I thought you said you wanted to fight a boxer.

49:51Iso Joe Johnson:come on man not that boxer Brona too small man oh he too small for you hey Brona kill me man if he wanted to for real Joe that's a real boxer what nah man Joe don't give me nobody that experienced Joe hey hey all jokes aside you know a lot of people make jokes and you know they laugh when boxers get knocked out and you know they fighting I don't want to do people understand that these dudes will hurt you if they want to, especially when you're in their environment, when you're not used to punches coming. You never see it. At all.

50:30Shannon Sharpe:It's different. Yeah, I don't know how many people in the chat have actually been to a fight and been close enough. I mean, when the guy head snapped, when the guy head snapped, he already, it's like a snake, he already in a recoil. And you just not see the man head snap back. Like, oh, he wrapped, man, he done bit you. Man, they put them punches together so quick, you know, man. That's how you get knocked out because you don't see it.

50:57Chad Johnson:You don't. And them three minutes be long as I don't know what. Hey, long as hell.

51:06Shannon Sharpe:But we now know Floyd has a fight on the calendar. And it's going to be September 19th of this year. he's taking on Manny Pacquiao on Netflix. Netflix, y 'all know what we do.

51:20Chad Johnson:There we go. There we go.

51:23Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, Netflix, make sure you have your boy on now.

51:26Chad Johnson:Make sure he come holler at the king now. Uh-oh.

51:32Shannon Sharpe:Ocho about to be mad. What's that? What happened? Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones admitted the Cowboys are leaning towards using the franchise tag on George Pickens. Joe Ocho, let's take a listen to what the executive VP had to say today. It crosses your mind.

51:48Draymond Green:I mean, a lot of guys who we've tagged, you know, participated in everything. Dak leading the way. He played under two of them, so he never missed anything. Hopefully that'll be the case here.

51:59Chad Johnson:It'll be advantageous to get it done before July. I'm talking about pickings.

52:05Draymond Green:I wouldn't put any time for it. Once you have a tag, you have a tag, and, you know, we know Georgia's going to be here. That's where we are. Is there a downside to the tag, whether it's 28 million or whatever the number is? We know what it is. And you can still shop and do everything? We can do everything we need to do.

52:28Chad Johnson:I know Ocho won't hear that.

52:31Iso Joe Johnson:I mean, Joe, I knew this was what they were going to do, Joe. I knew this was what they were going to do. Ocho.

52:36Chad Johnson:Yeah. Ocho. Ocho, he had a hell of a year. Can I see you do it again? Let me see you do it again, man. They'll back up the Brink's truck for Ocho. I know you want them to go out there.

52:53Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, Joe, don't try me and George Pickens like that. Talk about you want to see it again. Don't do us like that, Joe. Don't do us like that, Joe. If you don't see the value in me and George Pickens after what I did this year, just let me go. Keep a tag to yourself. Use your tag with somebody else. I might not want y 'all want nobody else to have you.

53:16Chad Johnson:Nah, y 'all know they want him. Y 'all know they want him. Of course they do.

53:19Iso Joe Johnson:Yeah, they want him for the load. Yeah, they do. They want him for the load. They do.

53:25Chad Johnson:It's all good. It's all good. You know. I know because I know Ocho been hollering about him going to the Raiders and all that. Ocho, we like the little two-head monster we got out here, man. I like it too. Why don't we break that up and then put all that pressure on CeeDee Lamb, See what's going to happen is you mess around. You mess around. C.D.

53:44Iso Joe Johnson:Lamb would get it done before George got there. C.D. Lamb been that boy. C.D. Lamb been that guy.

53:50Chad Johnson:I'm saying, but to have that.

53:51Iso Joe Johnson:He with an 88, Joe. C.D. Lamb with an 88 for a reason. I understand that. Heavy in the crown.

53:56Chad Johnson:I understand that. I understand that. But to have that other guy with him, Ocho, it's been dynamic. You send pick out there to the Raiders, he going to be pissed off. Oh, yeah? They going to be double him having somebody over time. He ain't going to be balling like he is in Dallas. Yeah, he is. Nah.

54:12Iso Joe Johnson:He gonna have a new quarterback. He got a new system. He got a new coach.

54:14Chad Johnson:Man, he gonna have a rookie quarterback who gonna be out there waffling that ball. Come on now.

54:19Iso Joe Johnson:Ooh. Oh, that's how you feel about the number one pick?

54:22Chad Johnson:I'm just saying, bro. You know, they got - I'm just saying. Look, look, look.

54:26Iso Joe Johnson:I just seen that same quarterback winning national championship.

54:28Chad Johnson:How many quarterbacks coming to the league right away and they just putting up these crazy numbers? Man, they got to go through their growing pains. No, Joe Burrow. Joe Burrow. Come on man It's an exception but come on now Ocho Hey

54:44Iso Joe Johnson:It's cool See how y 'all vouching for the owners You know trying to Get a given Almost it alright See how the owners fool the fans Chill

54:57Chad Johnson:Chill

54:59Iso Joe Johnson:People so selfish Long as they team Long as it's their team They don't care nothing about the player and him getting what he deserved, but okay.

55:10Chad Johnson:I ain't say that, Ocho. It's all good.

55:12Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, listen. Listen, if you love it, if you like it, I love it, okay? Cowboys fans, if y 'all want, you know, pickings to be there, you know, on the franchise tag because it's cool. Don't worry about it. I'm frustrated. Now I'm mad.

55:33Shannon Sharpe:Man, you know they're going to put that tag on it. Oh, yeah, I know. I know.

55:36Iso Joe Johnson:I knew they were going to do that because I understand how valuable he is. They understand how valuable he is. They know what he brings to the table when he's on that field. I get that. I understand that. I know what he can do in this offense. You know, I get it. I understand. But I also know what he can get elsewhere. Huh? You hear me? Stay with me. Everybody that came out in his draft, everybody got their money already. He done had to wait extra. He done had to wait longer. Some of it is his fault, you know, as well. But, hey, it is what it is. Hey, these are cards you dealt, man.

56:09Chad Johnson:You got to play them, homie.

56:10Iso Joe Johnson:Hey, you got to play them. Hold on. And this is best hand, too. Yeah. This is his best hand. His next move has to be his best move, huh? It got to be. Bro, you preaching to the choir. You know. Okay, okay. I just want somebody to scream at him. My bad. I know. My bad. But I prepared you for this. I been trying to prepare you for this. I knew it was coming. I knew it was coming. The fans understood that it was coming. In a sense, some of them are selfish and they're blinded because they like the team up of two number one wide receivers. Yes, I understand that part. But I'm just wanting my brother to get as much as he can.

56:53Iso Joe Johnson:And I understand that he's not going to be able to do that there. And a lot of people won't understand why I've been arguing and fussing about it until this plays out. And then you'll understand. you call me all kind of names I'm telling you what your team and owner are going to do they finna play games and that's what it's gonna be I guarantee you that

57:15Shannon Sharpe:I don't even have no conversation until we get to 35 that's when that's when my that's when my antenna perk up 35 okay now you got my attention you don't have my undivided attention but you got my attention I'm interested

57:30Iso Joe Johnson:franchise tag 28 who finna take that no hell no man you better man please what I represent George Pixis myself if David Moologetta even think about having a conversation

57:49Chad Johnson:hey what CD making 34 he the third highest paid okay

57:56Shannon Sharpe:Jetta at 35 and Chase at 40.25 five. But that's about to get past Puka Puka definitely finna go past that. JSN might have to wait a year. But Puka Nakua definitely going past that. Why JSN gotta wait? Because he's only in his third year. They don't normally do, they normally that fourth year. They normally do quarterbacks in the third year. If you're a first round pick.

58:32Shannon Sharpe:you a first-round pick because, and the thing is, where you have incentive, Joe, is that they have a fifth-year option that they can pick up, and they get two franchise tags. So theoretically, they got you for seven years.
