Coffee with Doc!

#55 PART II | Dewey Built a Boxing League From a Conversation on an Airplane

September 17, 2026·1h 1m
Episode Description from the Publisher

He trained Francis Ngannou from his first fight in America to a UFC heavyweight title, built a professional boxing league from a conversation two strangers had on an airplane, and then — off camera, off the record, completely unscripted — told Dr. Pierce the realest story this show has ever aired. Part 2 of this conversation with Dewey "Black Cobra" Cooper covers the coaching career, the league, his daughter, and a depression he never saw coming. Dewey Cooper spent over a decade quietly training fighters before anyone called him a "coach" — years of eight-hour shifts, teaching kids at the gym, and sleeping three hours a night. In Part 2, he explains how that invisible groundwork turned into training Jessica Rakoczy to five world titles, cornering Francis Ngannou through the biggest fights of his UFC career, and co-founding what's now Team Boxing League. He also opens up about his daughter Shaolin's music career, his unconventional health habits, and — in the most candid stretch of the episode — the depression he faced when she left for college, the search that led him to Islam, and why he finally agreed to get his blood work done after turning Dr. Pierce down for two years. 🔗 CONNECT WITH AGELESS FOREVER Website: https://agelessforever.net/ #CoffeeWithDoc #AgelessForever #BlackCobra #DeweyCooper #FrancisNgannou #TeamBoxingLeague #Boxing #Kickboxing #MentalHealth #Faith #Coaching #LasVegas #
