Mike and Lance examine Saturday's Anthony Joshua-Kubrat Pulev bout, and ponder if Joshua-Fury is what's next on the menu (:30). Could the WBO and president Paco Valcarcel throw a wrench in fans' daydream of Joshua-Fury? What's the likelihood Oleksandr Usyk earns a mandatory fight against AJ (6:45)? The guys preview Canelo-Smith and toss around the thought of Canelo-GGG III should boxing's pound-for-pound king prevail this weekend (11:00). Super-middleweight champion Callum Smith joins the program to share his thoughts on his upcoming battle against Canelo Alvarez (18:30). How does Smith feel being the fight's underdog? What does this matchup mean to the 30-year-old, whose brother, Liam, fell at the hands of Canelo four years ago? What would the reception from the UK audience be should he and Billy Joe Saunders trade blows (27:00)? Plus, what does Smith think of Canelo not shying away from challenging competition, much like himself? The gents applaud Edgar Berlanga's incredible streak and more before wrapping up the show (34:30).
