It was a dramatic, spectacular weekend of action in both Las Vegas and Alburquerque, New Mexico as Vergil Oritz and Angeleo Leo emerged victorious in main events. We have more on that, some fight news and some Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker nostalgia, as well, are part of the "Fight Freaks Unite Recap Podcast!"

Host T.J. Rives returns with Insider Dan Rafael of his Fight Freaks Unite substack/newsletter and BigFightWeekend.com to cover it all.

Was Ortiz's narrow decision win over Serhii Bohachuck in a 12 round slugfest in the Golden Boy main event one of the fights of the year? It certainly looks like it, as Dan has more on how Vergil got off the ground not once but twice and still won. And, what happens for him next at 154 lb. now that he's the interim WBC champ?

Then, we get to Leo's KO of Luis Alberto Lopez in the Top Rank/ESPN main event in Leo's hometown in New Mexico. HIs devastating left hook KO of the IBF featherweight champ, certainly has to be considered for knockout of the year, as Lopez remained motionless on the ground for several seconds and was counted out. Dan gives his perspective and what's next for Leo at 126 lb. too?

There's fight news on a couple of all time names in Nonito Donaire and Chocolatito Gonzalez who may be looking to fight each other later this year. Both have hall of fame careers and if they want to fight on, probably should look to battling each other at this aged, stage.

We finish with some Pernell Whitaker nearly 35 year old anniversary nostalgia on a first round KO in an HBO main event that made him undisputed at 135 lb. but the card also featured two other great names in Hector Camacho and Meldrick Taylor, too. And, a heavweight showdown that he attended in 2006 where Oleg Maskaev scored a dramatic KO12 of Hasim Rahman to become the WBC heavyweight champ and it became the first time ever in the four betlt era that four non-Americans now had portions of the heavyweight title. He was there and reminisces about it.
