0:44
recently um was was he not did he not

0:50
been a a colorful one. He's been right
0:52
there with T-Bud Crawford since they
0:55
were about 10 or 11 years of age. And
0:57
the way they met, I understand, is uh
0:59
T-Buck Crawford walked up to him and
1:01
punched him. And he's here to tell the
1:04
story. The one and only Stephen Soul
1:05

>> So, is that is that true, bro? Did
1:12
Crawford punch you as a kid and that's
1:14
how y'all be?
1:15
>> Yeah, man. But he's known just to walk
1:18
around this mess with random people. He

30-year-old man when y'all was 11.
1:45

1:48
as a teenager.
1:49
>> That's like a
1:51
bully in the park right there. Yeah.
1:53
>> Was Terence Crawford a bully? No, I
1:56
won't call him a bully. Like he was just
1:59

2:03

time you sit in the seat, boom, the

4:07
I'mma see you after that fight though,
4:09
babe.
4:11
>> Yo. So, how horse, how would you for for
4:13
for Stephen Nelson, how how important is
4:15
this fight? you think?
4:17
>> I think it's important for him because
4:18
it's the biggest card in boxing right
4:20
now to this day. Right now. So being on
4:22
the undercard of this this monumental
4:24
moment right here is like really, you
4:26
know, and coming off a loss, I know he's
4:28
ready to put on the show.
4:29
>> So I know that um So Cole is what you
4:32
did different this time that you didn't
4:34
do do last time in your fight like as
4:35
far as training.
4:37
>> Um I didn't do anything different, you
4:40
know, but being in training camp with
4:42
Bud, he's going to push you to a
4:43
different level, you know. We did Uh,
4:46
for the last fight I was called I was
4:48
called as an opponent. Like
4:50
>> I had about seven weeks. This time we've
4:53
been in camp for 14 weeks.
4:55
>> So
4:57
>> I had a little bit a little bit more
4:58
time to get more in shape and
5:00
everything. You know, last fight I was
5:02
against all odds, but I took it cuz you
5:04
know what? Like in boxing, you got to
5:06
take those risks. Absolutely. You got to
5:07
take them.
5:08
>> So I was like, "Hey,
5:09
>> it's all or nothing right now."
5:11
>> That's it, man. It's all or nothing for
5:13
you, right?
5:14
>> Yeah. All or nothing. You know, I'm
5:15
going this fight, man. I got to I got to
5:17
bounce back. I got to make a statement
5:19
and let them know that so cold is still
5:21
a problem.
5:22
>> Period. For real.
5:24
>> Why is it all or nothing? Like, you only
5:27
lost one time in your professional
5:29
career.
5:29
>> That's how the boxing fans are. Like,
5:32
you take a loss, they're like, "Oh, man.
5:34
Yeah, he ain't he ain't the greatest."
5:36
Like, okay, I'm a I'm a problem. You
5:39
know, like somebody got to lose. Only
5:41
two people competing.
5:42
>> Yeah.
5:42
>> Somebody got to win. Somebody got to
5:44
lose sometimes.
5:45
>> That's right, baby.
5:46
>> You
5:46
>> know, preparation wasn't the best.
5:47
Sometimes they got the best of you.
5:49
Maybe they may land one more punch than
5:51
you
5:52
>> or it might land a punch. Like for me,
5:54
>> my last fight,
5:55
>> I got a cut early in the fight.
5:57
>> So now I got to battle him and I got to
6:00
battle this cut, you know, in my in my
6:02
mental like, oh man, I can't run into
6:04
nothing stupid, you know? So
6:07
>> there things happen.
6:08
>> It's going to be fine. It is.
6:11
>> Especially you next to me.
6:13
Don't don't play.
6:14
>> All right then. I see you're walking out
6:16
with me.
6:16
>> I'm going to walk out with him at the
6:18
fight.
6:18
>> I got to get a gown. You better do that.
6:20
>> Walk out with me. Hey,
6:21
>> come on, man.
6:22
>> You going to go ape [ __ ]
6:25
>> Do you feel like though, Stephen?
6:27
There's like almost like um you can turn
6:29
a loss into a secret weapon of yours
6:31
because then it's like I have to prove
6:33
something and that's a different energy
6:35
than the energy of coming back from
6:37
back-to-back wins.
6:38
>> Yes, for sure. Um because we been in
6:41
that Mayweather era they call it, but
6:44
back in the day, you know, some of the
6:46
grace take took losses. So,
6:48
>> you know, you can lose and bounce back
6:50
and and be great.
6:52
>> Um Stephen, uh Horse Horse and both
6:55
Lunell, they Lunell just said she
6:57
studies other comedians. Doesn't matter
7:00
where they're from, all different
7:01
ethnicities. Horse is always talking to
7:03
me about boxing. It's like I'm like,
7:05
"You watching this fight is the
7:06
undercard. Why don't you wait? I got to
7:08
stop. I got to watch everybody. What
7:10
happens for you as a boxer after the
7:12
fight? Do you just like clean up and go
7:14
watch every boxer as well?
7:16
>> Oh, for sure. Especially if they're like
7:18
part of my team and we had four people,
7:21
you know, fight on this card that's part
7:23
of B&B's team as promotion company. So,
7:27
right after I get done, I go change,
7:29
clean up, and I'm back out there. Well,
7:31
grab my check first.
7:35
>> Get the check, baby. Get that check. You
7:37

7:39
>> I know. I got to grab a chest. I got I
7:41
got Make sure everything
7:43
>> is straight.
7:44
>> Yeah.
7:44
>> Right.
7:45
>> And then you'll go watch everybody else.
7:48
I'm still in my jumpsuit. I don't change
7:50
and put on nothing nice. I just put my
7:52
jumpsuit.
7:53
>> Just raw like that.
7:55
>> That's how you like it, huh?
7:56
>> So cold.
7:58
>> So cold. So, are you one of um Bud's
8:00
main sparring partners?
8:02
>> Uh yes. Always been uh since I've been
8:04
pro. Uh the first time I sparred him,
8:06
you know, he took me to that level. I
8:09
was like, you know what? I gotta get
8:11
there. And I came back. Um I was in a I
8:13
was in the army. Okay. Came back home
8:15

Rocky and all that stuff or did you when
10:28
did it when did you say I want to be pro
10:31
at this I want to do this?
10:33
>> I grew up a fighter. I always fought and
10:35
always threw the first punch anytime you
10:37
know
10:39
pushing out on the first punch. My Hey
10:43
my uncle told me hey don't wait.
10:45
>> Oh my god.
10:45
>> Soon as they get in your face hit them.
10:47
Yeah,
10:49
>> that's what I
10:50
>> So, I grew up I grew up a fighter, but
10:51
when I was in the army, I wanted to do
10:53
something, you know, different to stay
10:55
in shape. So, I went to a local boxing
10:58
gym. I was 21 years old.
11:00
>> Went there within like
11:01
>> How old are you now?
11:02

11:19
>> that shirt? I would have been out here.
11:21
Hey,
11:24
>> going crazy, Steve.
11:25
>> But but let's talk about that. Couple
11:27
things. I feel like you're a little more
11:29
chiseled this time around than I'm
11:30
normally saying.
11:32
>> Training camp being crazy.
11:33
>> Yeah.
11:34
>> Bud being pushing. I've been pushing
11:36
him. The time we laying there, I'm like,
11:38
>> "Man, I'm tired. Get up." I'm like,
11:41
>> Same thing with him. He like, "I'm
11:42
tired. Get up. Come on. Let's go."
11:44
>> Cut them out like C. Get up and get out
11:48
of there right now.
11:49
>> Yeah, you got to
11:50
>> What do you uh What's your diet?
11:54
>> Well, it's basically like a protein,
11:57
healthy carb, and uh lot of vegetable.
12:00
>> I'm a healthy carb.
12:03
>> Total total carbs.
12:04
>> Total.
12:06
How is it that you and Bud being at
12:08
different weight classes, he's your main
12:10
um sparring partner? You being at 168
12:12
and he started off at 147 and you said
12:13
that y'all did a lot of rounds. Yeah,
12:15
that's why I tell people like people
12:17
always say, "Oh man, this guy is too big
12:18
for Bud." I'm like, "Dude, Bud been
12:20
sparring big people
12:22
>> his whole career."
12:24
>> Oh wow.
12:24
>> Because you only spar what you available
12:26
to get, you know, especially being
12:28
Omaha. There's not a lot of, you know,
12:30
fighters, a lot of choices. So,
12:32
>> he's sparring big people, small people,
12:35
fast, slow, it don't matter. Whoever we
12:37
can get.
12:38
>> And I've been I've been sparring part
12:40
I've been sparring partner since I've
12:43
been pro. So Bud, so you know there's
12:45
little secrets that people might not
12:46
know about, you know, slipping funguses
12:47
from Bud and stuff like that.
12:48
>> Man, still to this day, I'm still trying
12:50
to figure out. He always, hey, he always
12:53
coming with something different. Like
12:54
that's why I said Bud got 10 ways to
12:56
win.
12:57
>> Are you a boxing fan, Sway?
12:58
>> Lel, you know. Look at my arm.
13:01

13:08
take a punch.

13:20
>> sometimes it happens.
13:22
Try not to.
13:23
>> Yeah, but let me ask you this. This is
13:24
what people This is people are betting,
13:27
the ones that are betting against Bud
13:29
are saying that Canelo is going to hit
13:31
him like no one else has.
13:33
>> He's going two weight divisions higher
13:35
now than when he was at 154, which was
13:37
really higher than being a welterweight.
13:39
Mhm.
13:40
>> Uh the experience, the you know, how is
13:42
he going to handle this man's punches?
13:44
What do you say to that?
13:46
>> I laugh because like I said, I punch
13:49
hard. I punch hard
13:51
>> for real. And I done caught Bud and he
13:54
just eat him like look at me like, "Oh,
13:56
that was a good punch. Shoot punch." And
13:58
then keep going.
13:59
>> But is unhuman, I'm telling you. But
14:02
that's what make people great though.
14:04
Being great is doing stuff that people
14:06
is not suspecting. We we got a caller.
14:09
We got We got a caller on line three. Um
14:11
and we got our guest here, Stephen So
14:14
Nelson. He'll be on the card this
14:16
Saturday. Uh Canelo versus Crawford. Uh
14:20
who we got? An is it Anthony from San
14:22
Antonio on line three. What up, Ant?
14:24
>> Hey, Ant.
14:26
>> Yo, what up Sway?
14:27
>> What up?
14:28
>> I called in last time because you were
14:30
stunt on everybody about Crawford DMing
14:33
you. I was like, "Yo, that [ __ ] out."
14:35
But um
14:35
>> he did DM me. You didn't.
14:38
>> Yeah,
14:38
>> I can show it.
14:40
>> We're over it.
14:40
>> Vegas,
14:42
>> I hope youall have fun. But to be
14:44
honest, man, Bud is topnotch, but Canelo
14:48
is gonna spank that ass on Saturday for
14:50
sure.
14:51
>> Round 10. Round 10.
14:53
>> Round 10. Why do you feel that way? Like
14:55
we we seen Canelo. I Listen, I'm a
14:58
person who in while Canelo was in front
15:01
of me told him I'm team Crawford, right?
15:04
I literally told this man that while he
15:06
was in front of me. I didn't want to be
15:08
rude because I think he's an awesome
15:10
exceptional era definfining boxer. And
15:13
I'm not taking anything away from him.
15:15
But like Steven said, only one person
15:17
can win, right? Unless the judges do
15:19
some tricky [ __ ]
15:20
>> but why do you feel like a man like TB
15:23
Crawford who's been through a lot of
15:25
battles and obviously if he wasn't
15:28
worthy they this fight wouldn't have
15:29
even been made is going to get spanked.
15:32
I feel like that why why spanked?
15:38
>> I'm looking at the resume, right?
15:40
Because Canelo's fought some some big
15:41
names, but I'm looking at Buds, too.
15:44
Spence Spence was up and coming. I
15:46
thought Spencer was going to win that
15:47
one, but man, that TKO
15:48
>> champion
15:49
>> that showed Bud's heart for sure and
15:51
kicks his ass for sure. But he felt like
15:54
he fought an old Porter. He fought an
15:56
old Amir Khan
15:57
>> champion
15:58
>> and he fought the wrong Ben if he to be
16:00
honest. So, um,
16:02
>> damn. You can't get credit for nothing.
16:04
Credit for nothing.
16:06
>> So, Canelo Canelo fought, um, Charlo.
16:09
>> I thought he was a good boxer.
16:10
>> Okay, but here it is.
16:11
>> He going he going for resume.
16:13
>> So, you're naming you're naming people
16:14
that those are champions that Bud that
16:16
Bud fought. That was Sean Porter was a
16:18
champion. Bud took that belt from him.
16:20
Um, who else you name?
16:22
>> Khan.
16:22
>> Amir Khan was a uh upcoming champion.
16:25
Took a belt from him. Um, Spence was a
16:27
champion at that time. He's going. He
16:29
was a champion at 147. Bud took that
16:31
from him. Canelo's last five fights he
16:34
last five fights. Name a champion that
16:36
he fought.
16:40
>> None. Because everybody trying to get
16:42
his belt.
16:43
>> Nah, not really.
16:47
>> Benvitas is there. Benvitas been trying
16:48
to get his belt. What happened to that
16:50
fight?
16:52
>> You know, you know how that's going to
16:54
play out? I was going to play out like a
16:55
Pacquiao type Mayweather when
16:56
Mayweather's ducking Pacquiao.
16:59
>> Oh boy.
16:59
>> Get old
17:02
that
17:03
>> for that money.
17:04
>> I hope he call back next week.
17:05
>> No, he's going to call.
17:06
>> He's He's not going to call. He going to
17:08
disappear like everybody else.
17:10
>> Anthony is going to call Monday.
17:11
>> Call back on Monday.
17:13
>> He's going to call back Monday. I'll
17:14
call back on Monday.
17:15
>> We lose the draw. You going to call
17:16
back.
17:17
>> All right. Cool. All right. Hey, you a
17:19
super citizen, man. I love your
17:21
>> I love your input, though, bro. Call
17:23
back Monday. All right, we got um line
17:25
one.
17:26
>> I will. I will.
17:26
>> Okay, we got you're a citizen, too, by
17:28
the way, brother. Oh. Oh, Lenel, when I
17:30
say you're a citizen, you got to say a
17:32
sway in the morning.
17:33
>> A sway in the morning.
17:35
>> Oh, you put a little thing on that, huh?
17:37
>> Because you make me feel some kind of
17:38
way.
17:39
>> So cold.
17:39
>> It's my other voice.
17:41
>> Okay, that's the other voice. Juan on
17:43
line one in Sacramento. Go ahead, Juan.
17:46
What are your thoughts on the big fight?
17:50
>> Juan. Yeah.
17:50
>> All say this. Kane Crawford all the way.
17:54
Kane Crawford all the way. That's what I
17:56
got right there, man. I think Crawford
17:57
gonna get him. Probably going to be down
17:59
to a split decision. But I also think
18:01
too though because of politics, this
18:03
this might be a draw.
18:04
>> So if they send it out and get that
18:06
rematch going like, you know, they had
18:08
that whole rivalry because I mean this
18:10
type of anticipation for a boxer fight
18:12
has been missing for a very long time.
18:15
>> Might as well miss the situation while
18:16
we got it. You know what I mean? So, we
18:18
got the best of the best going at it
18:19
with each other and we going to be down
18:21
for a huge debate. But I do got Crawford
18:23
though, man. All the way, man.
18:24
>> That's crazy.
18:26
>> Somebody said that. Uh,
18:27
>> right.
18:30
>> Be tinker.
18:32
>> Yep.
18:33
>> Yeah. No. No. You know what I'm saying?
18:35
But um,
18:36
>> but I No, no.
18:39
>> But I will say this though. Somebody
18:41
said that Crawford had never been hit
18:43
right or whatever like that. Canelo
18:44
never really got popped either. And
18:46
that's something that Prof is really
18:47
gonna do to him, man. He gonna pop that
18:49
right out, man. You know what I'm
18:50
saying? Steve Jones, man. Can't wait to
18:51
see you fight, too, brother. So, you
18:53
know what I'm saying? Keep it going.
18:54
>> You know, Steve Nelson and Lel. Hey,
18:58
Steve Nelson. My fault. My fault. My
18:59
fault, brother. And also, uh, Len, I've
19:01
been having to pressure you since I was
19:02
a kid. You know, you keep talking that
19:04
dirty talk, girl.
19:05
>> Hey, hold on. Hold on. Wait. Wait.
19:07
>> Baby, baby. Baby.
19:10
Hey, hold on. That's all me right now,

>> I'm trying to tell you there
20:18
there is no way. Yes. Yes. Come to
20:20
Canelo. Yes. He's a very good boxer. But
20:23
like everyone is saying though, but
20:25
Crawford, he has that that that that
20:29
>> bring out that effect in him.
20:30
>> He was knocking people out in high
20:32
school.
20:33
>> I seen cuz

20:48
cool table, the rap kids on table,
20:50
right? And Bud was just messing with
20:52
people. He had these peanuts and he were
20:54
throwing it at people.
20:55
>> Bullying.
20:56

20:57

21:00
Let me take it back.
21:02

21:04
and it hit this dude and he turned
21:06
around mad. Who did that? And everybody
21:09
pointed at Bud. But was like, it wasn't
21:12
me, but he was doing something, too. He
21:14
was He was doing it, too.
21:16
>> So then dude get up and was like, "What?
21:18
Hey man, I'm about to knock you out."
21:20
>> And he start swinging that bud.
21:21
>> Oh, the
21:22

21:53
Crawford.
21:55
>> All right. Always been rocking with him.
21:56
And I I want to say too um I don't think
22:00
team Crawford gets enough
22:02
acknowledgement as as the trainers,
22:05
management, you know, the whole team
22:08
>> of Crawford. Why is that? Why isn't Team
22:11
Crawford getting more recognized by the
22:13
governing bodies of boxing in your
22:15
opinion? Do y'all talk about that?
22:17
>> Yeah, because cream always rises, man.
22:19
And we all homegrown. Everybody like the
22:22
like the main coaches and everybody from
22:24
Bernie to Boag to Red, everybody's from
22:27
Omaha and we all been known each other
22:29
our whole lives.
22:31
>> Yeah,
22:31
>> that's crazy. I don't know anything
22:32
about Omaha. There's a big black
22:34
community in Omaha.
22:35
>> It is. It is. Every time I from Omaha,
22:38
like what? Like people there? Yeah.
22:39
>> You saw what my face was and I was like
22:42
Omaha.
22:43
>> Yeah.
22:43
>> It's like Omaha, right?
22:45
>> I been all over the nation. And it's
22:47
like I don't see difference in different
22:49
communities and stuff.
22:51
>> What?
22:51
>> It's not as big as like Cali and New
22:53
York and stuff and Texas, but
22:56
>> we have a we have a big community,
22:58
especially black people and you know,
23:00
poverty and and hoods and gangs and
23:04
blood.
23:04
>> What about them white girls? White girls
23:05
be on you.
23:08
>> Hey, it's funny. I ain't never dealt
23:09
with a white girl before.
23:10
>> Hallelujah.
23:15
A pure bread.
23:18
God damn it. We engaged. I love you.
23:21
>> Not even on a one night stand type
23:22
thing.
23:24
>> Father God in heaven.
23:26
>> There's one left.
23:27
>> You got him.
23:28
>> And I got him.
23:31
>> Wow, man. Well, man, congratulations to
23:33
you, man. You actually got a big fight
23:34
this weekend,
23:36
>> and I already put my bets on you. You
23:38
know what I mean?
23:39
>> You got to tune in.
23:40
>> Yeah.
23:41
>> Another another family coming down or
23:43
what's that?
23:43
>> Oh yeah, you got family everything.
23:45
>> Uh family, friends.
23:46
>> I want to be in the room.
23:48
>> They be in there. They come.
23:49
>> I want to be in the room where the
23:50
family is. So they should get to know me
23:52
>> on the back. I get your credential then.
23:54
>> Really?
23:57
>> No, for real. You got to be on a team.
23:59
Okay.
23:59
>> Yeah, I'm on the team, baby.
24:01
>> Hey, so cold. I have a question to ask
24:03
you. As far as boxing, the state of
24:05
boxing now, what do you Is it
24:07
championship boxing or is it just get
24:09
the bag and go? M
24:10
>> no it's uh champion especially with um
24:12
Turkey Ri season they're trying to
24:16
change the whole landscape of boxing
24:18
back to like the old school days where
24:21
people was actually competing and not
24:22
just coming for a bag and going and
24:25
people picking their fights. He's making
24:27
people fight.
24:28
>> But you don't see champions fighting
24:30
champions no more. That's what I'm
24:31
saying.
24:31
>> That's what he's bringing back. If you
24:33
notice the last shoot 10 cards he's
24:36
thrown have all been championship
24:38
fights. You see fights with three title
24:41
fights on it.
24:42
>> Mhm.
24:42
>> You know, and big fights. All the big
24:45
fights where it be guys that we've been
24:47
want to watch fight, it's be because of
24:49
Turkey.
24:50
>> Because it seems like Bud can't fight
24:52
the best in his division. He have to
24:53
move up three weight classes to fight.
24:55
>> But this fight wouldn't have happened if
24:57
it wasn't for him and him putting that
24:59
money up. Like
24:59
>> So, like I said, it's not championship
25:01
boxing. It's back to the purse.
25:02
>> No. Like, he's using that to to make
25:05
people who we want to see fight. Okay.
25:08
>> Like cuz it's like that's been an excuse
25:11
for fighters not fighting in the past 15
25:15
20 years like oh no ain't enough money.
25:17
Ain't enough money for that. But now
25:18
he's like oh okay you won 50 million.
25:21
All right got it.
25:22
>> So you think that Bud So so Bud's fight
25:25
is bigger than Benvitz and in and
25:27
Canelo. You think that would have been
25:29
>> um in a way because um it's
25:31
pound-for-pound.
25:32
>> Okay. Uh, Benvdz has been um a big a big
25:35
monster in the 168 175 division
25:39
>> and people been want to see that with
25:40
Canelo. But when have you seen
25:44
pound-for-pound one two fight each
25:46
other?
25:47
>> Not in the same weight division. Never
25:50
really, but I'm saying this is three
25:51
different This is two different weight
25:52
divisions. That's what I'm saying. You
25:54
got Mayweather about to fight Tyson. You
25:55
got so many different That's what I was
25:56
going
25:58
exhibition fights like Tyson and
26:01
Mayweather. What? What do you think that
26:02
this waters down boxing a little bit?
26:04
Just these exhibition [ __ ] fights
26:06
like Tyson and and Mayweather like what
26:08
the [ __ ]
26:10
>> I think it uh for me as a boxing fan,
26:14
you know, and I I don't, you know, I
26:15
know both Tyson and Mayweather, that's
26:17
not a fight
26:19
>> I want to see,
26:20
>> right?
26:20
>> You know what I mean? But and it does
26:23
bring a little circus to
26:25
>> Yeah, that's what I look at it like kind
26:27
of like the Allstar game.
26:29
>> Okay. or the celebrity basketball game.
26:33
It's for fun. It's for fun. And
26:35
>> okay, but somebody
26:37
like that.
26:38
>> Yeah. Got a little
26:39
>> If it's for fun, I get it. But you know,
26:41
for fun, that's why it's called
26:43
exhibition, not like
26:44
>> they're not really going to try to knock
26:45
each other heads off for sure.
26:47
>> I think the imagination of
26:49
>> I think Tyson and Mayweather would have
26:52
fallen.
26:54
>> But then you have you have Tank versus
26:55
Jake Paul. Same thing situation. You
26:58
have this heavier guy that's about to
26:59
fight this this lightweight guy.
27:00
>> Now, someone like that is a circus to
27:02
me. Like that's
27:03
>> that's a difference
27:05
>> because he's a current fighter.
27:06
>> You know, Jake Paul's a current fighter
27:08
and then you're fighting a YouTuber
27:10
>> who is not really labeled a real
27:12
fighter. He's trying to be labeled a
27:14
real fighter, but he's not a real
27:16
fighter.
27:16
>> He's not a real fighter.
27:18
>> You will fight Jake Paul.
27:20
>> Would I um It depends. It depends on on
27:25
uh
27:25
>> You want to say check?
27:26
>> Yeah. Don't make no hasty decision. Make
27:29
no hasty decision.
27:30
>> Hey, what are you working?
27:32
>> Make no hasty decision.
27:33
>> Okay. All right.
27:35
>> All right, man. Hey, man. I appreciate
27:36
you, man. Um, I ain't even going to wish
27:39
you luck. Be who you are.
27:41
>> You baby.
27:43
>> Hey, y'all. You got to watch out for the
