“Other than Ernestine, I don’t know anybody, any human, that watches more Undisputed, for that matter, more FS1 than Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. does,” he continued. “I’m pretty sure he never misses an Undisputed.”

It’s unclear what role Lil Wayne will play on Undisputed, however, Bayless has not announced Shannon Sharpe’s successor as full-time co-host on his popular sports commentary show.
