#floydmayweather #terencecrawford #canelo Get ready for a fiery episode of ThaBoxingVoice as we dive into the mega-fight showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Terence "Bud" Crawford, set for September 13, 2025, at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas! Can Crawford, at 37, overcome the odds by jumping two weight classes from 154 to 168 to challenge the undisputed super middleweight champ? Heavyweight contender Efe Ajagba says it's a “difficult” task, citing Crawford's age, diminishing power, and inexperience at 168. We'll break down Canelo's dominance, Crawford's slick skills, and recent fight results, including Canelo's uninspiring win over William Scull and Crawford's close call against Israil Madrimov. Join us for expert analysis, bold predictions, and polls to spark debate among boxing fans. Will Crawford's ring IQ outshine Canelo's power, or is Bud biting off more than he can chew?

Good evening and a huge welcome back to the show, I hope you've had a great day and you're ready to kick back and relax with another episode of Brett's old time radio show.

Created by S.S. Van Dine, Philo Vance first appeared in The Benson Murder Case (1925) as a wealthy dilettante whose keen mind and extensive knowledge made him an indispensable crime solver. His friend, District Attorney Markham, relied on his unconventional methods, while the gruff Sergeant Heath barely concealed his exasperation. Vance was equal parts scholar, art connoisseur, and detective—a man whose cultured demeanor masked an unyielding resolve to untangle the most perplexing crimes. Vance's popularity surged on the silver screen, where he was played by luminaries such as William Powell, Basil Rathbone, and Warren William. But it was on radio that his voice truly came to life. From 1943 to 1945, John Emery first gave voice to the suave sleuth. In 1945, the legendary José Ferrer brought his commanding presence to the role in an NBC summer series. Then, beginning in 1946, the masterful Jackson Beck took over, starring in over 100 syndicated episodes produced by Frederic Ziv, ensuring Vance's legacy endured on the airwaves.

Au sommaire aujourd'hui, un épisode enregistré en public, car une fois de plus, nous sommes venus au meeting annuel des membres du Tesla Owners Club France. Nous sommes dans le sud-ouest de la France, à Agen, au coeur de Walygator, un parc d'attraction avec ses montagnes russes, le petit train, les fontaines, le tout dans une chaleur tropicale.Dans cet épisode, sans surprise, beaucoup d'actualités autour de Tesla, Tesla qui vient de retrouver son PDG Elon Musk qui semble avoir décidé que finalement, la politique c'est pas son truc… Tesla qui plus près de chez nous a montré que même sur les routes les plus compliquées de coeur de Paris, ses voitures sont prêtes à rouler en toute autonomie, jusqu'au "Boss Level" de la Place de l'Étoile désormais franchie sans les mains. Quand pourra-t-on en profiter pour de vrai ? Mystère, alors qu'aux États-Unis, le constructeur devrait lancer dans les jours à venir ses premiers robotaxis.Pour autant, il n'y a pas que Tesla dans la vie, on se parlera aussi du grand concurrent BYD, qui marque des points avec une petite citadine suréquipée sous la barre des 20000 euros !Enfin, on se parlera de recharge, un vrai journal des bonnes nouvelles, avec l'arrivée annoncée de nouvelles heures super-creuses dans les contrats d'électricité, pour faire baisser un peu plus le coût d'une recharge.On ira aussi à la découverte d'un réseau de bornes de recharge à haute tension d'un genre nouveau, présent dans toute la France, avec une particularité : un tarif unique qui est de très loin le moins cher du marché.Et puis, cet épisode sera aussi plein d'invités, nous recevrons Fabien Sturni, le patron du Club des propriétaires de Tesla… nous recevrons aussi Pascal Hureau, le président de FFAUVE, la Fédération Française des Associations d'Utilisateurs de Voitures Électriques, qui nous parlera de la fin - au moins provisoire - des ZFE, ces Zones à Faibles Emissions. On entendra aussi Alexis Marcadet, le patron de Revolte, ce réseau de garagistes spécialisés dans l'électrique.Et surtout, un invité fil rouge, celui qui sera notre grand témoin aujourd'hui, vous le connaissez comme comme Xavier_csn sur Tiktok, Instagram et sur Youtube. Un influenceur didactique et drôle, dont les vidéos font elles aussi la chasse à l'intox.Les liens de cette émission:Xavier_csn, sur Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/xavier_csn/Le Tesla Owners Club France : https://www.club-tesla.fr/site/FFAUVE, la Fédération des Associations d'Utilisateurs de Véhicules Électriques : https://www.ffauve.orgRevolte et ses garages 100% électriques : https://www.revolte.clubSi vous voulez soutenir ce podcast, et s'il vous venait l'idée d'acheter une Tesla neuve, le lien de parrainage https://ts.la/cdric56048 vous offrira 500€ de réduction (et me donnera quelques crédits de recharge gratuite, d'avance merci).Les Doigts Dans La Prise est une production signée Streamstown, d'ordinaire produit dans les sublimes studios de Heavyweight à la Plaine Saint-Denis.

Episode SummaryIn this episode of Fat and Fertile, I'm joined by the brilliant Dr. Alice Keeley – also known as The HeavyWeight Midwife. Alice has over 20 years' experience as a midwife, completed a PhD on plus-size pregnancy care, and is fiercely committed to challenging the weight stigma baked into our maternity systems.We get stuck into the reality of being pregnant in a bigger body – from being weighed without consent at booking appointments, to automatic referrals that leave people feeling confused, judged, and “high risk” before anything's even gone wrong. Alice breaks down how these moments impact care, and shares her passion for creating a more personalised, compassionate, and evidence-based approach to pregnancy support.We also explore Alice's own journey – how her background in social justice shaped her care values, how she came to launch The HeavyWeight Midwife in 2022, and why she believes confidence and communication are essential for navigating pregnancy with autonomy and self-trust.In this episode, I talk about:Why BMI-based guidelines don't tell the full storyHow weight stigma shows up in maternity care (and what to do about it)What's actually useful to know about risks in plus-size pregnancyHow to advocate for yourself at appointments – even when it feels scaryWhy scans, referrals, and medication should always involve informed consentThe surprising role that things like wind and tissue density play in ultrasound scans (!)And why water birth access is a fat-positive issue we should all be talking aboutAlice also shares how her online community and trimester-by-trimester courses are helping thousands of people feel seen, supported, and prepared for pregnancy and birth on their own terms.Links and ResourcesEmail me: nicola@nicolasalmon.co.ukFind me on Instagram: @fatpositivefertilityMy book: Fat and Fertile – available via AmazonAlice's website: theheavyweightmidwife.comConnect with Alice on Instagram: @theheavyweightmidwifeFind Alice's support programmes and membership via her websiteListen to Alice's podcast: The HeavyWeight Midwife PodcastGet InvolvedNicola would love to hear from you!

Send us a textWhat do dad jokes, dream vacations, body image struggles, and walkie-talkie job resignations have in common? They all collide in this wildly entertaining and unexpectedly vulnerable episode of The Heavyweight Podcast.From the jump, the crew's signature banter sets the tone for an unfiltered ride packed with gut-busting laughs and real-life reflections. Whether it's cracking dad jokes that deserve groans (and a few gold stars), or revealing their ultimate travel destinations—from the peace of Bali to the flavor of Japan—this episode offers a little bit of everything.But don't get it twisted—there's depth, too.Things get personal when the conversation turns to insecurities and identity. One host bravely unpacks the psychological toll of body dysmorphia after weight loss, while another reflects on the pain of feeling unloved in one-sided relationships. It's raw. It's real. And it might just speak directly to your heart.The laughs return as the crew dives into their Black card confessions—like hating certain soul foods or vibing to “white music”—challenging cultural stereotypes while celebrating their roots. And just when you think the vibe couldn't get better, they drop some of the wildest job horror stories you've ever heard (Target employees, beware).
Although it's a lighter weekend of action, there are a couple of solid contender main events and we've aslo got some interesting fight news and more on the "Big Fight Weekend Preview Podcast!"Host T.J. Rives returns with insider Dan Rafael to go over it all.They begin with the preview of the Matchroom/DAZN main event Saturday in LondonJohnny Fisher vs. Dave Allen, rematch in a 10 round heavyweight battle. Will Fisher step up this time and decisively win over the veteran Allen? Also, they preview the 360 Promotions/UFC Fight Pass main event in Commerce, Calif.Contender Serhii Bohachuk meets. Mykel Fox, who's stepping up to junior middleweight in the main event. Bohachuk wants to get in the 154 lb. title picture with a big win. Can the crafty, southpaw Fox create problems? News Wait, the Canelo Alvarez-Terence Crawford mega-fight, announced for September 12th for Las Vegas isn't going to be on that date and maybe, not in Vegas?? Dan isn't so sure. The guys go over it. Also, the presser on Thursday in NYC for Turki Alashikh's July 12 Ring mag / DAZN PPV that will take place at Louis Armstrong Stadium tennis stadium in Queens, NY. Plenty of talk between Shakur Stevenson and top contender William Zepeda along with Edgar Berlanga and Hamzah Sheeraz at the presser.

Next, the California commission says Charli Suarez has appealed the technical decision loss to Emanuel Navarrete last Saturday night and the hearing is on agenda for June 2 commission meeting. Meanwhile, Bob Arum tells me he would like to do the immediate rematch in October in Manila to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Thrilla in Manila, Ali-Fraizer 3, which he also promoted Top Rank/Golden Boy/Zanfer made deal, avoid purse bid for vacant WBO junior middleweight title bout between Xander Zayas and Jorge Garcia.

Most of us have that event in our life that seemed insignificant at the time but ultimately defined the trajectory of our life. For Stacy Bridavsky, it was an internet cat film festival after an exhausting day of orientation for a new job at an art museum in Minneapolis. It was here that her future husband Mike, also known as Lil Bub's dude, fell head over heels for her. In less than a year, she was living with him (in sin) in Bloomington, which was where she learned of the heartbreaking and suspicious 2015 death of IU student Joseph Smedley, who was found dead in Griffy Lake with 66 pounds of rocks strapped to his back. Although it was ruled a suicide, Joseph's family believed there was foul play. So does Stacy, who created the podcast A Heavy Weight to advocate for Joseph and his family.

I review the aftermath of the matches from WNO 27: Duarte vs Rodriguez, and their implications on the heavyweight grappling scene. I can't recall a time where I was more excited about the match ups in heavyweight BJJ, as the top 5 active heavyweights have nearly all traded wins and losses. With Gordon out of the picture, we have chaos, and that makes for some exciting match ups where it's harder to pick winners - even though I did pick this card 100% correctly, I was doubting a few of my picks mid-match.
