Shannon Sharpe’s seven-year stint with FS1’s Undisputed came to an end in June 2023 as he departed the show.
Skip Bayless wants Charles Barkley to join him on the show. Bayless expressed his urge to annihilate Barkley on a daily basis. Skip further explained why Chuck would be the dream partner for him in a recent episode of his podcast.
“Charles Barkley would be my dream debate partner on ‘Undisputed,'” Skip said. “I would dive out of bed every morning out here in Los Angeles at two o’clock in the morning to get to work with Charles. Please, Charles, please come and please work with me, this ‘damn idiot.’ What a joy it would be to do battle every day with Charles Barkley live on television.
“I could semi-retire. I could mail it in. I could, dare I say, actually have a life and forget about prepping so furiously hard. All I’d have to do is let Charles go first and listen to him make a fool of himself. I get to sit back and watch him walk himself right into an indefensible trap. I wouldn’t even have to try. So please, please, please, Charles, come be this damn idiot’s debate partner. Please let me annihilate you on a daily basis. 10 times per show. Let me make barbecue chicken out of you.”

Skip Bayless’ partnership with Shannon Sharpe will forever be remembered by fans. The show will return to air on August 28, 2023. Meanwhile, Skip is on the hunt for his new co-host.
Bayless has invited Barkley to join forces with him. It’ll be interesting to see if Chuck accepts his proposal.
What Is The Beef Between Charles Barkley And Skip Bayless?
Charles Barkley and Skip Bayless are two of the most prominent figures in sports broadcasting right now. They butted heads following Barkley calling Bayless an ‘idiot’ in light of Sharpe’s getting buyout from Fox.
Barkley stressed on Bayless being an idiot was the primary reason why Sharpe could get out of the show. Of course, Charles’ comments reached Skip.
Bayless then responded to Barkley’s insult with a one-sentence tweet. Now that Bayless has dropped a rant on Chuck, the beef is far from getting better.
To be honest, from a viewer’s point of view, it’ll be exciting to see them debate every day. It could be a sure way of skyrocketing the show’s ratings.
