ITL Lunch-Time Confessions featuring Super Middleweight boxer “DFG” Darius Fulghum.

We've talked plenty about the Texans' need to improve in pass protection — but how much improvement should we expect (or demand) in the run game? ITL discusses the trenches from a different angle. Plus, Lunch-Time Confessions gets personal and a little punchy with a special guest: rising Super Middleweight boxer DFG Darius Fulghum joins the show ahead of his WBA world title eliminator fight May 30th in Las Vegas against Bektemir Melikuziev. Hear about his mindset, journey, and what fight night means to him.

ITL reacts to Christian Walker's struggles at the plate and delivers breaking news on Astros pitcher Ronel Blanco's elbow issue. Plus, what's something in sports—or life—you think should be banned? The NFL leaves the tush push alone (for now), and The Athletic drops a CFB GOAT list—what do YOU value most when comparing careers? The Astros need a win, and ITL breaks it all down. Texans talk continues with a shift to run blocking. How much improvement is realistic in the trenches this season? Then, rising Super Middleweight boxer Darius “DFG” Fulghum joins ITL ahead of his WBA title eliminator in Vegas. Finally, ITL drafts Olympic Flag Football teams—snake draft style—with Figgy bringing the fire in his Mixtape: Ryan Clark controversy, Orleans Parish Prison updates, and more.

Padraig McCrory grew up in St. James' in West Belfast. After starting boxing around 15 years of age, he would have success winning various Antrim and Ulster titles before taking a gap in his 20's of 4 years. After deciding one Christmas to give boxing another go at the upcoming Ulster Senior championships, he would go on to win that title a month later. After missing out on the Commonwealth Games later that year, he would decide at 28 years of age to go professional. Padraig took to the pro game like a duck to water and would soon go undefeated in 8 fights. He would then win the BUI Celtic title, defeating Steve Collins Jr before adding the WBC International title in 2021. Padraig was then given the unexpected opportunity to move up in weight and challenge undefeated Leon Bunn in Frankfurt, Germany for the IBO world Light-Heavyweight title in late 2022. Padraig would give a career best performance to stop Bunn in 6 one sided rounds. Massive celebrations took place back home on his arrival when he arrived home to St. James' with the belt. Padraig then decided to move back down in weight to his more natural Super-Middleweight and remain unbeaten before taking a big step up in February this year when facing Edgar Berlanga in Florida, USA. Padraig battled bravely but came up short against the very talented Berlanga. He talks about coming to terms with the disappointment of this defeat. Padraig talks about his plans for the future both inside and outside of the ring. Could a comeback be on the cards? He has also recently started to manager boxers under "Hammer boxing" and he hopes to pass on his own experiences to look after these fighters in the future.

Saul "Canelo" Alvarez (61-2-2) 39 KOs defends the Super-Middleweight throne against a game opponent and fellow countryman in Jaime Munguia (43-1) 34 KOs.  Munguia did not shy away from the challenge and did what he could to seize the moment, but in the end the experience and overall ring IQ of Canelo proved to be too much for the young challenger.  One name continues to be brought up as the next challenger for the champion and that is none other than the "Mexican Monster" David Benavidez.  Time will tell if these two will finally step into the ring against one another and give the fans what they want or if the speculated Berlanga/ Crawford as his next two opponents comes to fruition.  For Munguia, he undoubtedly leveled up this past Saturday night.  Let's hope that he returns with the same fire against a Morrell, Plant or Mbilli and doesn't lose momentum with "Stay Busy" and/or "Tune-up" type opposition.  Thank You so much for all of your continued support!Don't forget to follow me on Instagram @TOMATODITOSHOW where you can leave me a comment on the direct post corresponding to this episode.Also, you can reach out to me via X @TomaToditoShow.

Ahead of his title bout, Caleb sits with Fred, Ryan and Channing to talk about his journey and why this fight means so much to him and opens up on how the emotion surrounding the two fighters isn't just for entertainment but is real. Growing up life wasn't easy and boxing wasn't a hobby, it became a way out for Caleb and now, it's a way of life for the former champion as he continues to etch his name atop the sport. Detailing his heartbreak of his young daughter's illness and her passing, Caleb emotionally shares how his life changed and how he was able to find strength in family and the will to keep fighting inside the ring. Losing his daughter Alia and also his mother shortly after, Caleb's motivation to be one of boxing's greats was fueled by his love of family and support from his best friend and now wife, Jordan. The foundation of his marriage is the structure if everything he does and fights for after recently welcoming their newest addition to the family, daughter Charly. Coming off a win in the fall after a loss to Canelo Alvarez last spring, Caleb understands what's at stake and is prepared to go to war this Saturday to win in the title and hand Benavidez his first loss. Caleb knows the sport comes with a good amount of trash talking but when someone talks about another man's wife or children, it's not reversible or forgotten…and Caleb is on a mission to let his opponent know there's no coming back from what was said. It's not enough to stand across from someone, it's about having your hand raised when the final bell rings.

This episode is brought to you by the gorgeous new, 3rd generation Suzuki Hayabusa. Widely regarded as the Ultimate Sportbike, the new Hayabusa is a refined rocket-ship—it is the quickest, and most technologically advanced Hayabusa yet. The beautifully refined, swooping bodywork is not gorgeous to look at, it's also the most aerodynamic Hayabusa yet. Check it out at suzukicycles.com or of course you could swoop down to your nearest Suzuki dealer and check it out for yourself. This week we bring you an absolutely fascinating, sort of ‘all-in-one' episode. It's an adventure ride for the ages, right here in our back yard of the Mojave desert in Southern California. As a brief teaser I can tell you that there is such a thing as the ‘Mojave Megaphone'. It is a true oddity, and interestingly it's not even that well known locally. It's a large—can only be described as—metal art object that looks the same as its name implies. It was placed in the middle of nowhere, California. Who placed it, how they did it, when, and even why—all remain mysteries to this day. Editor Don Williams has heard rumors of the Mojave Megaphone for years, and finally decided to go visit it. Persuading our always-up-for-anything off-road fast guy—Associate Editor Jess McKinley, they sourced a BMW F 850 GS Adventure, and a KTM 890 Adventure R to compare and review, and headed into the Mojave to find out exactly what's there. This episode will—for sure—make you want to put the daily grind to one side, drop everything, and just get out and go for a ride…  It certainly did that for me.

Canelo Alvarez the #1 Cashcow and pound 4 pound boxer in the world should fake his retirement to see if the other champions in the middleweight division and in the light heavyweight division would unify the titles instead of waiting for The GOLDEN TICKET. Canelo who recently became Super Middleweight undisputed which add to his prestige legacy, could retire today and on his way to a first ballot hall of fame. While Canelo is enhancing his legacy while staying very busy and active doing so (4 fights in 11 months). Seems like other champions such as Jermall Charlo, Demetrius Andrade, GGG, Artur Beterbiev, Dimitry Bivol, David Benavidez etc legacy has been on a stand still. Dictated by the chance of Canelo calling out their name as his next opponent. Instead of carving their great potential legacy without Canelo. They or their business handlers or their potential unify opponent rather abandon that for a Canelo fight that may never happen. What if Canelo Retires? Would they have no choice but to fight each other?

One gotta go Adam Sandler Movies. Big Daddy vs Mr. Deeds vs The Waterboy vs Happy Gilmore. 8 dead and countless others injured at Travis Scotts ASTROWORLD festival. Kids as young as 10, 14 and 16 died at the Travis Scott Concert.

The UFC had a star studded Pay-Per-View headlined by Kamaru Usman Vs Colby Covinton 2. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/theuneducatedduopodcast/support
