It really is up to ESPN as to how they want this show to go.

Unfortunately Skip was a huge reason the show got the attention it did. He obviously had respect for LeBron, but trolling made that show explode and he netted a HUGE payday as a result.

I do like the idea of boxing being talked about more.

If there is a big fight or news about a big fighter they can talk boxing but the show is about ratings so there not gonna let max get too in depth about boxing on it

I have been really questioning Stephen A's basketball knowledge. He gets overly emotional for no damn reason too often as well.
He hasnt displayed anything to me that suggests he has basketball knowledge from any random nikka on the street. He has the ability to get inside information for being affiliated with ESPN or whoever prior to but knowledge? Intellect? Nah. He has a platform that funnels him information. That doesn't require knowledge. That only requires you to have been around long enough to be the next man up in that position to be the recipient of information. Its just a waiting game at his level.

Some people are quite knowledgeable though. Just not that buffoon.
