Summary
Brian Campbell and Rafe Bartholomew recap a loaded weekend in boxing, including wins from pound-for-pound king Vasiliy Lomachenko and undisputed women's middleweight champion Claressa Shields. What's next from a marketing and matchmaking standpoint for the self-proclaimed G.W.O.A.T., and will Lomachenko face Mikey Garcia in 2019? Plus, a detailed preview of this weekend's action including the Terence Crawford-Amir Khan pay-per-view and Danny Garcia's return on Fox. The guys also ponder Floyd Mayweather's cryptic announcement tease and debate whether a creative Mayweather-Lomachenko superfight would ever happen.
