Friend of the show, Shakur Stevenson is back for round 2 on THE ART OF WARD! In this exclusive interview, the boxing superstar checks in with Andre while in camp for his February 22nd fight against Floyd Schofield on the undercard of Beterbiev vs Bivol 2. Shakur opens up about his training, previews the matchup, and explains why he chose Schofield.

Plus, Shakur spills the tea on his heated encounter with Vasyl Lomachenko at Bud Crawford's last fight—and how Loma ducked his fight offer afterward. And he takes shots at Teofimo Lopez and Ryan Garcia, keeping the trash talk real.

Shakur also dives into his relationship with rising star Keyshawn Davis, Turki Alalshikh, and explains what it’s been like working with Eddie Hearn, and even shares his thoughts on the massive Canelo vs. Crawford mega-fight.

The ART OF WARD is back with another exclusive champ interview!

This week, Andre sits down with the one and only David Benavidez, the Mexican Monster, ahead of his highly anticipated mega-fight with David Morell.

In this candid conversation, Benavidez opens up about his intense preparation for what could be the biggest fight of his career, revealing how he plans to take on the rising Cuban star. He also explains why he never considered ducking the challenge.

The champ also takes us back to his roots, reflecting on his early boxing journey, the profound impact of his father, and the struggles he overcame in the early days of his career. It's an inside look at what makes Benavidez the fighter and man he is today.

And, of course, no interview with the Mexican Monster would be complete without a bold callout to Canelo Alvarez. Will we finally see the long-awaited showdown between the two? Benavidez also shares his thoughts on retirement and what the future holds for him.

In this powerful episode of THE ART OF WARD, boxing legend Laila Ali opens up like never before, sharing her incredible story with Andre. From being the daughter of the greatest of all time, Muhammad Ali, to becoming a dominant force in the ring herself, Laila takes us through the defining moments of her life and career.

Laila reflects on the challenges of growing up with a famous father, the emotional and physical battles she faced, and how those experiences shaped her into the undefeated champion she became. She reveals what her father thought when she first told him she wanted to box, and the lasting impact of his passing in 2016 on her life and career.

Laila dives into her legendary pro boxing career, revisiting key fights like her rivalry with Christy Martin and explaining why she never fought Anne Wolfe.

And for the first time, Laila discusses her ongoing beef with Claressa Shields—what caused the tension, where things went wrong, and whether there’s hope for reconciliation between the two titans of women’s boxing.

Beyond her athletic achievements, Laila is also a successful entrepreneur. She shares what life after boxing has been like, how she’s channeled her energy into new ventures, and what’s next for her beyond the sport.
