Chewing the fat about a huge boxing upset
Quickly dismissed for his appearance, Andy Ruiz Jr. stunned the boxing world Saturday by upsetting unbeaten British heavyweight Anthony Joshua, whose chiseled physique stood in sharp contract to his own. On this week’s episode of Just Another Sports Podcast, sports editor Josh Smith, city editor Allen Etzler and host Greg Swatek discuss the ramifications of Ruiz’s victory and whether boxing could enjoy a bit of resurgence in this country with a group of talented and outspoken heavyweights leading the charge. They also discuss how rich they would have to be to feel good about dropping six figures on NBA Finals tickets, as some people in Oakland are doing, and whether the Warriors are more vulnerable now with key injuries piling up? Plus, who is banished to the Boat to Nowhere, and does the Dice Man (Andrew Dice Clay) still have it?
