02x03 - Jake Paul

Post by bunniefuu »

♪ ♪

The biggest secret as*h*le in

The nba, steph curry.

I don't think he is as*h*le is a

Secret, he's doing it on

Television and in front of

Everybody, spinning around like

An airplane -- don't you want

Your kids to be like a

Steph curry?

If your kid acted him you would

Be in jail right now.

♪ ♪

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: thank you,

Thank you, welcome to "game

Theory"

There was one big story in

Sports this week:

Breaking news.

Tom brady retires for good,

Capping a historic 23year

Career.

Brady, who's 45.

Bomani: get that old man off

The screen.

We did this last year.

Just say an.

You only get one funeral, pops!

I bet you know what I really

Want to talk about:

February 12, 2023 will mark a

New milestone for the nfl.

Mahomes will be making his

Third super bowl appearance

Against jalen hurts making his

Debut on the center stage.

The first ever super bowl

Featuring two black starting

Quarterbacks.

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: even white people

Clapping.

If that ain't black enough for

You, jalen hurts dad name is

Avarion

And pat mahomes senior looks

Like he's got some brown weed

And a pack of kools in his

Inside pocket.

Why does he look so broke?

Yes, we have two black

Quarterbacks in the super bowl.

But what truly makes it

One, that's jalen hurts.

Mahomes might be the most

Talented quarterback we've ever

Seen.

But being twice as good while

People try to find some white

Dude better than you?

That's played out.

A team drafting a black

Quarterback with more

Intangibles than physical

Skills, running a top draft pick

Out of town to give him the job,

Then surrounding him with a

Great supporting cast?

That's black history.

I ain't seen nothin like that

Before in my black a*s life.

To even get a chance, so many

Black quarterbacks had to be

Good enough to do everything.

Cam newton got to the super bowl

With ted ginn as his best

Receiver.

That's like serena williams

Reaching the mixed doubles

Finals at wimbledon with rueben

Studdard as her partner.

But jalen hurts?

He's a good passer, he's a good

Runner, but he's nothing we

Haven't seen before.

We've just rarely seen a black

Qb

Like him on a team like this.

Where he gets to be like a

Second coach.

A field general.

He gets to lead the team but

Isn't asked to carry it and he

Has the full support of the

Organization.

And philly fans actually like

Him.

They would've traded donovan

Mcnabb for drew bledsoe and a

Used mouthguard the week before

That super bowl.

It's a path black

Quarterbacks would have k*lled

For.

This is what warren moon froze

His a*s off in canada for.

And it's a far cry from what the

First black quarterback in a

Super bowl had to deal with.

Let me tell you the story of

Doug williams.

Five years before that

Super bowl, williams sat out a

Full season because he was so

Insulted by a contract offer

From the tampa bay buccaneers.

He finally

Got back to the nfl where he

Says any team could have had

Him, and the only team was

Coached by the only person to

Come to scout him at grambling

Joe gibbs, who then coached the

Washington football team.

He got there is a back up 86,

Got the job with two weeks left

In the regular season, and then

In the super bowl?

That man has every reason in

The world to be smiling right

Now, four touchdown passes, let

Them on five drives, 306 yards

In a half.

Bomani: I'll never forget

The happiness of that day, I'll

Never forget my daddy who to

This day is still mad that the

Pittsburgh steelers benched joe

Gilliam for terry bradshaw.

Your daddy too?

He was never, ever happier to

See the washington redskins

Arguably the most r*cist

,

Franchise in america, which is a

Really high bar he was thrilled

To see them win that game.

Black folks hadn't been that

Happy since bull connor died.

Cuz it wasn't about doug.

It was about every artificial

Barrier set up so black dudes

Couldn't even try to play the

Position in the nfl.

All those black dudes with great

Arms, who became receivers and

Safeties because quarterbacking

Wasn't for them.

And then you look at a dude like

Jalen hurts.

Who's getting this chance, with

That roster.

I never thought I'd see that da

Day.

I didn't think I'd get to see

That day again.

There was something similar ten

Years ago.

That year, the 49ers had a

Young black quarterbacks.

Like hurts, his team was so

Loaded that he didn't have to do

Everything.

But if they needed it, he could.

And that man's name is colin

Kaepernick.

I wonder who he plays for now.

Anyway, here's why I mentioned

Colin kaepernick.

All that progress with jalen

Hurts?

That ain't ours.

It's not like we weren't good

Enough to do it in the first

Place.

People wouldn't give us the

Chance.

And sometimes, that chance can

Get taken away.

About how good the player is.

It's how much his bosses want

Him to succeed.

Progress!

It's still, in progress.

But I'm gonna love the super

Bowl!

If we get two black starters

Again next year, we're gonna

Start calling it the super bowl

Classic!

Let's get the battle of the

Bands!

[Cheers and applause]

And now we turn our attention to

Another wildly popular sport: jv

Girls basketball in portsmouth,

Virginia.

Well, the season

Unexpectedly ended early for a

High school girls jv basketball

Team in virginia.

One of its adult coaches was

Caught playing in a game

Pretending to be a member of the

Team.

Here's video from that game.

Number one right there who just

Came up with a blocked shot,

We're told that is arlysha

Boykins.

Arlysha's apparently a 23year

Old young woman going up against

14 And 15 year old girls.

We have confirmed that boykins

Is no longer an employee of

Portsmouth public schools.

Bomani: and she would have

Gotten away with it too, if it

Weren't for her looking way

Older and playing way better

Than everyone else.

[Cheers and applause]

If you're a player on that team

What do you think when you see

This happen?

It's like your teacher is doing

A group project for you -- which

Actually sounds pretty cool, but

The team is all right with this.

A win is a win.

I don't want to assume too much

About her, I don't know her but

I know this, she has never let a

Kid win at nothing ever before

In her life.

She was out there talking to

Them, flexing -- last time she

Played checkers she screamed to

King me, b*tch and her

8-Year-old cousin ran up the

Room crying.

Be fair to that lady come after

Working with a bunch of

Teenagers every day,

I bet it

Felt gooooood to beast those

Little girls.

But I hope it felt great.

Because that is an all time dumb

Way to lose your job.

[Cheers and applause]

Our guest this

Week is one of the most

Influential sports commentators

In the country, the host of

First take on espn, and now the

Author of a memoir, straight

sh**ter.

He may genuinely believe he won

Every on camera argument he had

With skip bayless, just like me.

Ladies and gentleman, stephen a.

Smith!

[Cheers and applause]

Proud of you, brother.

I like this.

Bomani: you got the book

Coming out, when in your life

Did you realize I've lived a

Life you can write a book about?

I will tell you about two

Years ago, before then I didn't

Feel that way, I just put my

Head down and grind it in did

What I had to do.

But when you got the number one

Trend morning show and sports

For like 11 years now and you

Accomplished what I accomplished

If you have the opinions that

I've had and talk that smack

That I've talked, eventually

Someone is going to look at you

And wonder about you, how did

You come to think like this,

What is your perspective, what

Gave you the right to have this

Kind of opinion?

My attitude is let me do that in

The book another book is a

Best seller.

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: it kind of sounds

Like you realized your life was

A book when somebody had a book

Advance --

That definitely entered into

It because I ain't doing it for

Free, you got that right, the

Advance was nice.

Bomani: one thing I've

Wondered about you and never had

A chance to ask, why do you do

The show with sean hannity?

Sean hannity and I met each

Other about 15 years ago, sean

Incredible supporter of mine.

Our politics do not align but

I'm one of those people come I

Look at this country that we are

Living in a two party system and

You have people on the fringes

All over the place come on the

Left and the right and I don't

Like a lot of things on both

Sides.

I state what I state, you feel

The way that you feel if you go

On from there because the

Reality of the situation is we

Got people in our families, we

Got people in our circle, we got

People that are friends and

Loved ones come we don't

Necessarily agree with their

Politics, but we still get along

With them because off those

Issues they are cool people to

Talk to.

With somebody like sean hannity,

He knows damn well at least 70%

Of the time I don't vibe with

What he's saying at all but

There is 30% of the time me

Being a black man, me knowing

That even though we always voted

Democrat we had a lot of

Conservative views.

Some of the things that are set

On the right is something the

Black family can gravitate to

And has gravitated to whether we

Are willing to admit it or not.

I'm wise enough to recognize

That and as long as I have the

Kind of relationship with you or

I can tell you what you're on

About and why and you're willing

To listen, I have an opportunity

To provoke change.

Why close that door of

Opportunity when you can leave

It open?

No matter where you go you are

Going to run across people that

Think differently from you.

Bomani: on another day we

Will talk about that other 30

But I have to ask you about the

World, what happened at memphis

Spilled over into sports.

When these things happen in the

World there are people who come

To us even though sports is

Typically what we do.

For you, what does that

Responsibility feel like?

It's immense but is something

We sign up for.

I don't get to run from it,

Neither do you and not it is any

Black person pick you think

About tyree nichols, would

Happen him in memphis five black

Police officers beat him to

Death, there's no other way to

Slice it.

They didn't know the camera

Across the street was watching

Him when they were screaming for

Him to put his hands behind his

Back, they already had him

Restrained and sat on top of

Them, you had another officer

Come out of nowhere and ask like

He was kicking a field goal and

Kick them in the face twice, you

Had another officer jump on him

And hit him with a baton at

Least twice, stood him up and

Punched him in the face three

Times.

You literally see those details,

I watched all 66 minutes, it's

Appalling.

You look at it in that respect

And recognize the fact even that

Specific incident is not

Indicative of what happens all

The time you see on inordinate

Amount of unarmed young black

Men get shot and k*lled or beat

And k*lled, it's definitely

Something that resonates and you

Can't be somebody that's a black

And ignore that and ignore your

Obligation it and your community

And your people when it comes to

Giving a voice to issues like

That, we don't have to agree on

Everything but I'll be damned if

We don't agree on something that

That's heinous in that wrong, we

Have an obligation of standing

Up no matter what genre.

You've got to call attention to

That to make sure we do

Everything we can to put a stop

To it.

Bomani: and that's the man,

Stephen a. Smith.

"Straight sh**ter" is in stores,

Thank you so much now.

We are going to play a game

Called give a punch, take a

Punch.

You get to punch this person but

You then have to let that person

Punch you.

Elon musk.

100%, I will rock him.

He will do the mathematics in

His head -- technically I should

Hit him here and he will rock

Him meat, may be.

Bomani: give a punch, take

A punch with kanye.

Head butts two bomani:

You play dirty.

You know when someone needs

It he don't want to hurt them

Too much but it would help them.

Bomani: I don't listen to

That much of her music but it

Sounds like she's suffering a

Lot of pain and trauma.

Rhowhat about jake paul?

I'm not trying to become a

Mean.

Do you think he needs to get

His a*s kicked?

You think he needs to get his

a*s kicked?

You're scared of losing to

Him?

The losing hurts.

The losing to a white dude, I

Feel like that part is implicit

In this.

I will just be walking and a

Black old man will be like for

Real?

You know all of his matches

Are fake, he's never won a real

Fight.

This sounds like a barbershop

Conspiracy.

Bomani: let's jump in a

Time machine, it's late 2020 and

I wanted to watch a good

Old-fashioned boxing match.

Mike tyson versus roy jones jr.

The thought of them fighting

Each other made me really sad,

Then I saw something on the

Undercard, more specifically

Someone on the undercard.

Nate robinson versus this guy.

>>

Well you may not know who he

Is, but your kids probably do.

He's the fast driving, prank

Pulling, larger than life social

Media star with a young fan base

In the millions.

Jake paul, a disney channel

Actor turned social media star

Who had never fought before

Jumping into prizefighting.

Bomani: and man, this matchup

Got me excited!

Nate robinson, arguably the best

Miniature dunker of all time,

Who loves to fight?

Was about to beat down this

Random a*s youtuber who looks

Like a roided up member of the

Von trapp family.

And then, this happened:

Oh there's a feint from jake.

Oh my god!

Lord have mercy!

Bomani: and I took that

Personally!

The last thing I wanted to see

After the george floyd uprising

The last thing I ever want to

See is a white dude beating up a

Black man!

White dudes being scared of us

Is the only part of racism that

Keeps us safe!

If white kids think they can

Grow up and be like jake paul,

Every city is gonna turn into

Boston!

And then.

It happened again:

>>

Paul scored a brutal knockout in

His rematch against former ufc

Champion tyron woodley.

Bomani: and again:

Much more aggressive and

Silva and this is why-oh!

Silva knocked down by paul!

Bomani: once you knock out

Three black dudes, you're

Officially a menace to the

Culture.

So I had to do some research on

This jake paul, the youtuber

Turned semidecent boxer?

He's now set to fight what may

Be his first real boxer:

Tommy theory, the half other

Heavyweight champion of tyson

Fury, a reality television guy

And hopefully the man who knocks

Jake paul out because jake paul

Must be stopped.

[Cheers and applause]

Let's be real: the boxing world

Doesn't need jake paul.

The sport is doing just fine

Without him.

With a market projected to be

Worth $452 million dollars this

Year.

It's jake paul who needs the

Boxing world.

Cuz it seems like his

Entire boxing career is an

Attempt to legitimize himself in

Sports and transition away from

A social media and business

Empire built primarily on

Hustle.

And if there's one thing jake

Paul knows as a youtube star?

It's hustle.

Rep your flipping merch, son.

20% Off, 30% off, 40% off,

There's so many deals.

The video is supposed to be over

But if you add time to your

Video on youtube and make it

More than 10 minutes, you make

More money.

I'm patient with this game.

I get paid good as f*ck.

You know, I have my team at

Morgan stanley, you know, I put

A big amount of money with them.

Bomani: that video will be in

The opening credits of "the big

Short 2: mo' bigger, mo'

Shorter."

And despite the way you think of

Jake paul as social media star.

His push into the boxing world

Is actually kind of working.

He's like gen z's donald trump.

He's leveraging a social media

And reality tv career into

Actual relevancy and staying

Power.

In 2021, jake paul made a

Reported forty million dollars

From his fights alone.

Having never faced a legitimate

Boxer.

In august of that same year,

Paul's fight against ben askren

Sold as many as 1.5 million pay

Per views.

His popularity in the ring and

Success as a fight promoter has

Also translated into a

Multimillion dollar deal with

Showtime.

And he's even using this

Newfound boxing "legitimacy" to

Advocate for social progress

Within the fighting community.

I just identified a bunch of

Different ways that I think the

Sport needed to improve and one

Of those things was women's

Boxing.

These women are awesome, they

Are legit, they are savages.

They've been so underpaid and

Mistreated.

It's dope to just give these

Ladies the platform that they

Deserve and get them the big

Payday that they deserve.

Bomani: that's some real "say

Baby, let me be your manager"

Energy.

While his promotion of female

Fighters is undeniably positive,

His biggest labor project within

The fight community has more to

Do with mixed martial arts.

Where his white whale is a

Literal white whale: dana white,

The antiunion head of the ufc.

But I'll let jake describe what

He's doing to piss off dana.

My ultimate goal is to create

A fighters union.

There needs to be change.

There's no fighters union.

I'm trying to get everyone on my

Team to slowly build an army to

Create fighters union.

I want to make a fighters union,

Um, so man, dana white can suck

This d*ck.

Bomani: you can't spell

Organized without organ.

[Laughter]

All of these issues that jake

Paul is raising in the fight

Community are real problems that

Should be addressed.

Especially when it

Comes to dana white and fair

Labor practices.

Dana gives his fighters deals so

Exploitative, they make death

Row contracts seem like a gym

Membership.

Dana has made it clear that his

Anti-unionization.

What is jake paul going to do,

Take on the ufc himself?

Is he really going to create a

Fighters union?

I don't know!

Is lauryn hill going to show up

To her own concert on time?

I don't know!

But these things do seem

Incredibly unlikely.

Because jake paul

Doesn't need to create a

Fighters union.

The controversy he generates

Talking about all this, and the

Media coverage around the

Comments, is as good for jake

Paul as anything he could

Actually do himself.

And this is where the hustle

Begins.

Because whether people online

Hate or love jake paul, he still

Wins.

The audience you've brought

To boxing, are some of them

Tuning in because they want to

See jake paul's face get punched

In?

I'd say 50% of people are

Hate watching.

Does that bother you?

Or does it motivate you?

Or neither?

It doesn't bother me at all.

It plays into your game?

It plays into my bank

Account.

Bomani: now a lot of people

Might want to punch jake paul in

The face, but there are a lot of

People who have been earnest

Fans of his.

People who have wanted to see

Jake paul succeed.

People who have looked up to

Him.

And jake paul has always known

Exactly who they are.

Who is your audience?

Who do you make your videos for?

Yeah my audience is

Definitely younger.

I have like 10 different

Demographics.

There are the 8 year olds who

Are like jake!

Then there are the teenagers who

Are like oh my god jake paul!

Jake what does that mean to

You?

Oh bro, this is who I do it

For.

I do it for the kids, bro.

What I'm doing for the sport of

Boxing, the universe wants it to

Continue because the sport needs

It and I think the youth and the

Next generation of kids need

This.

Bomani: if there's anyone who

Know's what kids need, it's a

Man child.

But the youth have historically,

Loved jake paul.

He built his success off of that

Attention.

And that audience is now growing

Up.

Which is where this gets

Troubling.

Because he is parlaying his

Newfound sports legitimacy into

Other business ventures that

Might be incredibly attractive

To his now older audience.

Specifically, his new sports

Media company called "betr."

They host espnstyle sports

Commentary shows, they put out

Memes, they even got stephen a.

Smith to talk about his love

Life

Do you,

Stephen a., His love life.

Eat a*s?

Oh sh*t.

No.

Never.

I don't have to.

> Never?

Have you gotten your a*s eaten?

That's private.

Bomani: and who said

Hardhitting journalism is dead?

Thing is betr is not just a

Sports media company.

They've raised over fifty

Million dollars in financing

From investors.

And the primary reason they've

Received so much money is

Probably the other part of their

Business.

One that's a little less

Wholesome

And potentialy a loooot more

Lucrative.

The second branch of betr's

Sports betting and online

Casino.

I was never a big sports better

Until I met my cofounder

Joey levy who introduced me to

Microbetting.

Our app allows you to

Bet on every single play, score,

Drive and player in.

Real.

Time.

Bomani: jake paul looks

Like he's trapped in a room

Waiting on liam neeson to come

Save him.

But the important piece is that

His gambling company specializes

In one area, micro betting.

Like jake said, you can bet on

Literally every second of a

Sporting event.

Want to bet on which outfit ben

Simmons will wear on the bench

Tonight?

You can do that.

Want to bet on which outfit ben

Simmons will change into for the

Second quarter?

You can do that too.

And some experts have said that

This is potentially a more

Addictive form of sports

Gambling than the traditional

Form that relies on wins and

Losses in games.

Microbetting is basically the

Loosies of sports gambling: you

May only want one cigarette when

You're drunk, but the next thing

You know, you're booking flights

Just to buy dutyfree cartons of

Newports.

And with the formation of betr,

Jake paul is serving up this

Addictive form of gambling to

His fan base.

A lot of which have followed him

Loyally since they were young.

And are now.

Old enough to gamble!

My generation, I guess our

Generation, we are roughly the

Same age -- they don't really

Care about sports betting

Because it's so hard to get

Involved in.

Now what we're going to

Be doing is taking over the

Younger generation of sports

Fans and introducing them to a

Product that's easier to

Understand.

It's sort of the

Tiktokification of sports

Bomani: yet tiktok

Ification is a scary phrase to

Hear any time.

But tiktokifying gambling is

Downright frightening.

Especially when you consider

That tik tok and gambling are

Both hyper addictive.

That's like

Crackifying candy.

We've got to be clear, the major

Sports books like vandal and

Draft kings have gotten into

Some form of micro betting.

Many even use software from

The same company that jake paul

And betr are using.

But the major difference, and

The most troubling difference,

Is that neither of these

Companies has a cofounder who is

Young, made his name online, and

Has cultivated a young audience.

And now some of that audience

Is old enough to legally get

Into some more addicting stuff.

It's like if pornhub premium

Offered a discounted

Subscription on your 18th

Birthday.

Promo code goldman sachs sex.

Jake paul is willing to walk

People, young people, up to what

Might be an extremely addicting

Form of gambling.

Knowing that the house always

Wins.

Cuz at the end of the day: a

Bookie is a bookie is a bookie.

Even if you dress it up with a

Flashy app, instagram clout, and

A poorly placed karma tattoo.

Jake paul's still just a bookie.

But most bookies don't also

Happen to be massively

Influential former disney stars.

Who are also boxers.

And that's why jake paul has to

Be stopped.

Let me tell you the truth.

I'm 42 years old, I didn't want

To talk to this dude.

But like it or not, he's

Legitimate now.

So I tried to sit down and have

A legitimate conversation with

Him about boxing and business.

To find out more about where

This journey goes from here.

What's up?

Bomani: I appreciate you

Taking the time and if you are

Ready we can get started on

This.

Let's run it.

Bomani: you're scheduled to

Fight tommy theory.

This is the first fight against

A real boxer, how do you feel

About that?

I'm excited, especially

Because there's a lot of critics

Out there saying he hasn't

Fought a professional fighter

And I feel bad for those people

Because they are idiots.

To me it's all about making a

Fight with someone who was my

Age.

Bomani: I want to see you

Fight somebody your age too but

At the same time he didn't have

A problem fighting old mma

Fighters like anderson silva is

Old enough to be my daddy and

You fought him.

Because there was no one else

Who wanted to get into the ring.

I'm doing this to create history

And create big fights.

Bomani: people like the

Seat back and forth you talk

About knocking these dudes

Pretty quick, right?

Are you looking for people who

Can put you in a position to get

That knock out or are looking

For people who can give a good

Fight.

I'm always looking for people

Who can give a good fight, it

Sounds like you don't really

Know about boxing the odds or wy

Opponents?

Bomani: tell me more.

I can educate you a little

Bit.

I'm facing world champions in

Their respective sport.

Bomani: you fought a

Basketball player.

A while ago, three years ago

And I was the underdog going

Into it.

Everyone thought I was going to

Get k*lled.

Bomani: I did think, I

Thought he was going to beat you

Up.

What are you saying?

Bomani: it wasn't a good

Fight, you won but that doesn't

Mean the fight was good to.

It was a good matchup.

I have a business to run here.

At the end of the day, it's a

Show business.

So you have to have the show.

Bomani: at this point you

May be thinking things are going

Pretty well.

I thought so too.

So I asked him a few more

Questions.

Let me ask you questions about

Business, you started a new

Business called a betr, can you

Tell people about that?

It's the future of sports

Media platform and it's also a

Sports betting platform, mainly

Focused on micro betting.

Bomani: what is micro

Betting, can you explain that to

Me like I'm five?

It's as simple as being able

To bet live during the game

There k*lled the best example is

Betting whether or not something

Is going to be a run or a pass

In the nfl.

It enhances the gaming

Experience it makes it more fun

To watch.

Bomani: do you worry

Experts say micro betting is one

Of the most addictive forms of

Gambling given your audience's

Younger people?

My audience is older people,

I get that you're trying to be a

Hero here and to save the date

And paint me in a bad light.

Bomani: I'm saving the day?

You're trying to, probably

With a lot of your guests you

Get one over on them and they

Aren't smart enough to keep

Track of what you're doing.

[Laughter]

Bomani: nobody's trying to

Fool you, why do I need to try

To fool you?

I'm asking you a real question.

You appeal to younger people and

This is how you've made a lot of

Money and you are still

Appealing to younger people and

Now you are selling micro

Betting and the question is do

You worry about that?

For sure, that's why it's

Always gamble responsibly, only

Bet with money you're willing to

Lose, the house always wins.

Download betr but gamble

Responsibly.

Bomani: okay.

After tommy theory, where do you

Go from there?

What happens if you lose one of

These fights?

I don't plan on losing, I

Don't train to lose.

I feel like that's probably your

Mind-set, a lot of people try to

Project their mind-set --

Bomani: I'm not projecting

Mind-set, my question is this

Has worked because we are all

Surprised that you keep winning

These fights, right?

I thought you were going to lose

Early, you surprise me at beat

Nate robinson, I didn't think

You beat anderson silva, you

Surprise me when you did that.

But if somebody does beat you,

How much interest stays in this

When it stops being a surprise?

They won't.

I'm going to be honest, I don't

Know who the f*ck you are, my

Pr team said --

Bomani: all I know about

You is that people don't like

You.

Of viral interview, this is

Your big moment, soak it all in.

Bomani: I've talked to a

Bunch of bigger m*therf*ckers

Than jake paul in this world.

Have a nice day with your

Clout, I hope you make a

Thousand dollars for your views,

Have a nice day.

[Cheers and applause]

Bomani: I was just about to

Ask him if he ate booty.

He said we were using him for

Clout, and maybe I get a

Thousand dollars.

Yes?

Oh, yeah!

Way more.

That is our show, to you and

Jake paul, happy black history

Month!

Good night!

Who would you like to see get

His a*s whipped in a celebrity

Boxing match?

Little bow wow.

Bomani: y?

Bomani: that's a great

Choice.

Somebody to beat dr. Phil up?

I think somebody in the

Audience.

Their a*s kicked as some of the

Real housewives?

Bomani: fighting each

Other?

Absolutely.

Woody allen.

Bomani: why woody allen?

I saw him during the pandemic

At central park and instead of

Wearing a mask he was holding a

Bunch of napkins on his face.
