Joined today by former Light Heavyweight Champion of the world, "The Pittsburgh Kid" Paul Spadfora. Paul and I talk about his upcoming trip to Italy, how he proposed to his fiancé, and what Pittsburgh food he misses the most. We discuss him training his son, Geno, the similarities and differences with them and his biggest gripe with how younger boxers are trained today. We chat about him dropping out of school in 9th grade, boxing at 11 years old, meeting his mentor PK and hear an insane story about a high speed car chase that led to Paul getting shot at 16 years old. Paul analyzes the current state of boxing, his thoughts on Crawford, Fury fighting Francis and why he thinks Tyson is the greatest heavyweight of all time. He tells us about his amateur career, turning pro and that legendary night when he beat Cardona for the belt. We hear about how his life changed after winning the title, why he couldn't say no to his childhood friends and the reason he stayed in Pittsburgh so long. He shares why he believes he never got the dream matchup against Gatti, being trained by Emanuel Steward, and being a student of the sweet science. Paul also lets us know about the book being written about him that is coming out in October, still battling his demons and the HOPE he provides people battling addiction. All this plus texting with Roy Jones, when he's going back to the gym and his favorite TV shows. Follow Paul here and be on the lookout for his upcoming book https://www.instagram.com/paulspadaforaofficial/

Jesse Reid is one of the most successful trainers of all time and has worked with between 20 and 30 world champions. He coached the brilliant Orlando Canizales from the ground up, and he has trained the likes of Roger Mayweather, Rodolfo Gonzalez, Jesse Burnett, Hector Camacho and countless others. He's also worked with some of boxing's most troubled minds, including Bruce Curry, Johnny Tapia and Paul Spadafora. Reid remains close to Spadafora to this day. He lost his fighting son, Jesse, to alcoholism and he has tried to help many fighters across the tightrope of addiction. Jesse turned down the chance to train Mike Tyson, was the lead voice in the infamous Paul Spadafora-Floyd Mayweather spar and has been one of the most-respected voices in sport for more than 50 years.

Angel Manfredy was a legendary boxer during the 90s and early 2000s who appeared numerous times on HBO's World Championship Boxing series. Angel was known for his walk-ins to his matches wearing a latex mask depicting Satan, which he used until his fight with Floyd Mayweather and conversion to Apostolic Pentecostalism. During his career, Manfredy defeated notable fighters, such as Arturo Gatti (by technical knockout), Ivan Robinson (by knockout), Jorge Páez, and Julio Díaz (by a split decision). He has also fought notables Floyd Mayweather Jr. , Paul Spadafora and Diego Corrales . A frequent contender, Manfredy was a former WBU Super Featherweight champion, but lost in each of four attempts to capture a World Title. Manfredy currently sports a lifetime record of 43-8-1 (32 knockouts). Manfredy lost two out of his first five fights, but then won 23 in a row, including wins over former champions such as Calvin Grove, and Jorge Páez, and top contenders such as Wilson Rodriguez, before landing his first major fight against Gatti, in the latter's hometown of Atlantic City. Manfredy who was an underdog dominated the fight, knocking Gatti down in round 3, and eventually stopping him on cuts in round 8. Following this fight Manfredy fought twice before fighting Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a major HBO television event. Manfredy was stopped in the second round after a barrage of punches. Manfredy called the stoppage premature and stated he was not injured. This was one of Manfredy's first fights in his new Christian personality, and celebrated having Kid Rock appear at the match singing for him during his walk-in. Following this fight Manfredy knocked out Ivan Robinson in what had been HBO's Boxing After Dark's highest-rated show of 1999. Manfredy then received another world title shot against Stevie Johnston in 1999, but was thoroughly outboxed. In 2002 Manfredy challenged Paul Spadafora for the International Boxing Federation World lightweight title. Spadafora beat Manfredy in a close decision. Manfredy last fought in 2004. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/todd-atkins8/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/todd-atkins8/support

This week, we wander down a path of crazy, with more idiocy jumping out from behind every door. He came from a terrible situation, and tried to make Pittsburgh proud, by becoming a champion. Problem is, he also became a drunk, a crack head, and someone who would shoot his girlfriend, and put a 63 year old woman in a head lock, for no reason. Not to mention his penchant for intra family rumbles with just about anyone he's related to... and that's just the start of his storied record. He never learned. He still hasn't. It's Paul Spadafora!! Start drinking at age 6, stab your brother with a 10 inch knife, then threaten several members of the Pittsburgh Police Department with Paul Spadafora!! Check us out, every Tuesday! We will continue to bring you the biggest idiots in sports history!!
