With immense love from the fans comes harsh criticism from the haters! The same is the case of Los Angeles Lakers star LeBron James, who constantly dominates the NBA headlines. An old incident surfaced on social media: Fox Sports host Joy Taylor accused NFL legend and her former colleague Shannon Sharpe of being paid to claim LeBron is the GOAT.
The recording appears to be during Shannon Sharpe and Skip Bayless’ “Undisputed” show on Fox Sports, which Joy Taylor hosted. It was posted on X from a verified account, Thetruth, known for sharing narratives against the Lakers star. The account also shared NBA analyst Ric Bucher’s allegations on Klutch Sports for dictating the storylines of LeBron James’ career.
In the Joy Taylor recording, the FS1 host seemingly exposed Shannon Sharpe for getting paid to claim LeBron James is the greatest. She said, “I have some inside information as to why you’re saying LeBron [James] is the GOAT now. Shannon can be bought. His loyalty can be bought.”
Never forget when Joy Taylor EXPOSED Shannon Sharpe for being paid to say Lebron is the GOAT:
“I have some inside information as to why youre saying Lebron is the GOAT now, Shannon can be bought, his loyalty can be bought”

However, the laughs can be heard clearly, which indicates that it could be a humorous remark to poke fun at Sharpe. Also, the NFL legend has admired LeBron James’ skills for years. The fans gave a mixed reaction as some called the four-time NBA champion a fraud while others stood up for James.

After his exit in January 2023 following an argument with his co-analyst Skip Bayless, Shannon Sharpe joined ESPN’s First Take. He co-hosts alongside Stephen A. Smith and Molly Querim. Last month, Skip signed off from FS1 and has started “The Skip Bayless Show” on YouTube.
VIDEO: Molly Qerim Took A Nasty Jab At Shannon Sharpe And His Leaked IG Sex Tape During ESPN’s “First Take”
It has now been a week since Shannon Sharpe accidentally went on Instagram live while having intercourse with a woman. This was an all-time blunder that he will likely never live down, and that became obvious after Molly Qerim took a subtle jab at him during ESPN’s “First Take.”
During Monday’s show, Qerim recapped the Dallas Cowboys vs. New Orleans Saints game. In the background, you could hear Shannon talking, which made everything very distracting.
Qerim says, “Shay, we can hear you, buddy.” This seems to be a clear joke referencing the video, which many people picked up on.
“Although he’s not doing anything, this is still hella funny. Thought Shannon would’ve learned by now,” said one comment.
“Tough week for Sharpe and electronics,” added another.
The show continued as if nothing had happened, but nobody can deny that Qerim provided a super subtle yet hilarious joke at Sharpe.

The fact that it went so viral, and Sharpe is such a recognizable face across most North American sports fanbases, means people aren’t likely to soon forget to video. You can certainly expect this won’t be the last time a co-host pokes a bit of fun at him for it, either.
Shannon Sharpe Claims He Could Lose Sponsorship
Though he might not lose his job at ESPN, Sharpe risks losing many sponsorships due to the accident.
“We’ve got six- and seven-figure sponsors and advertisers saying, ‘Shannon, we don’t know if we want to continue this relationship,’” he said on his show “Nightcap.”
This was discussed after people started accusing him of staging the Instagram live.
“So you think I would be willing to risk that… the next five to seven years, $170 million to $200 million, you think I would be willing to risk that to do this?” he continued.
