So, yeah, a lot of those 155 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 4: guys they went pro with me and we all kind 156 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,719 Speaker 4: of grew up together in the pro community. 157 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, we were doing a topic a couple of weeks ago, 158 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,719 Speaker 1: and I think it was ESPN or some I don't 159 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,560 Speaker 1: know some where they were voting and they were like, 160 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,920 Speaker 1: the most difficult sports in the world, and the number 161 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,280 Speaker 1: one voted most difficult sport in the world was boxing. 162 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: I believe it. And we had our theories of why 163 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: we thought that is. But you're an actual boxer, tell 164 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,280 Speaker 1: me why, you know, with all the sports that are 165 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:50,839 Speaker 1: in the world. You know, you got polo, you got rugby, 166 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 1: you got you know in water polo, you got all 167 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 1: kinds of crazy stuff, why do you think boxing is 168 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: the most difficult in the world. 169 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 3: I think it's because it's ninety mental than you know, 170 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 3: is it? 171 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: Really? 172 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,200 Speaker 4: It really is, because anybody can get in shape and 173 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 4: throw punches, but it's a matter of how you can 174 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 4: apply the techniques that you've been working on in training 175 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,840 Speaker 4: for for six to eight weeks, and then you know. 176 00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 7: The tactical part of it, knowing what your opponent's going 177 00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 7: to do. And that's why I mean to still refer 178 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 7: to boxing as the sweet science. There is a science 179 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:21,920 Speaker 7: to all of this, you know. So, like you just said, 180 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,679 Speaker 7: that was perfect. It's like you you see big strong 181 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 7: guys that don't mean they know how to fight exactly. 182 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: But there are people that they think of boxers, they 183 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 1: think of big dummies, right, like a big punchy dummies there. 184 00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 1: But what you're saying is there's an intelligence to boxing itself. 185 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:38,919 Speaker 3: Absolutely. You have to know when to attack, when to counter. 186 00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think about you have three minutes to try 187 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 4: to take advantage of your opponent pretty much, but at 188 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 4: the same time he's trying to do the same thing 189 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 4: to you. So you got to be able to adapt 190 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 4: on the fly. Maybe you want to throw a straight jab, 191 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 4: but he's going to count that with a hook, So 192 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 4: you got to be able to react to that and 193 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 4: come back with something else or reposition yourself to do 194 00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:59,559 Speaker 4: something else and then and it's just so much happened 195 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,200 Speaker 4: to all that one you have to be able to 196 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,200 Speaker 4: stay calm through all that as well. 197 00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:06,080 Speaker 1: So do you think because of the psychology of boxing 198 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: is why Muhammad Ali is considered the greatest of all time? 199 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: Or or is he still not? Is he not considered 200 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: the greatest of all time anymore. 201 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: No, he's still the greatest. 202 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 4: I think it's more so of like a like a 203 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 4: like a persona for Muhammad Ali because he was such 204 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:25,000 Speaker 4: an influential figure during his time as well. Yes, you know, 205 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 4: with everything going on outside of the boxing ring too, 206 00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 4: So I think that's why that plays into the greatest 207 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 4: of all time aspect for him too. 208 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: Who is it that you've respected the most when it 209 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: comes to boxing? 210 00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 3: Terrence Crawford? Who Terrence Crofts Crawford? 211 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:38,320 Speaker 7: Is? 212 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 3: He just beat Canelo on Netflix? 213 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 1: Okay? 214 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 3: Well what was that back in like November? 215 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: Okay? 216 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 4: But he started at I want to say, like one 217 00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 4: thirty he became undisputed.

We 673 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 7: why begin with our fourth our last couple fourth quarters, 674 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 7: it's been an issue. We got to tighten that up 675 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 7: because we started off just on fire. Scored forty one 676 00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:55,679 Speaker 7: points in the first quarter, thirty in the second, twenty 677 00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 7: seven in the third, and then twenty three points to 678 00:26:58,080 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 7: finish out that fourth quarter. 679 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 1: But again we stayed resilient. 680 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:06,320 Speaker 7: State composed of seventeen Powlo had twenty seven points there. 681 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 7: Des Membane is a Dog had twenty one points there. 682 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 7: So again, uh, good, good victory.

So this tonight's game is 696 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 7: really important to keep that momentum. It would be great 697 00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:03,360 Speaker 7: to have eight game winning streak, obviously.

You wanted to ask me something about. 705 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 1: That, Well, no, we've won, Like, uh, that's that's good. 706 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: Like that was a big game yesterday and nobody a 707 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 1: lot of people I were talking to like, oh, we're 708 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 1: not going to beat the Dominican Republic, but we meet 709 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: the Dominican Republic. That's a pretty big deal. 710 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, so it's a nice I'm trying to get us 711 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:53,040 Speaker 7: what the Italy's playing Venezuela and we'll we'll play the 712 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 7: winner out of that game. 713 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 1: Right, So we got past Dominican Republic and they were undefeated. 714 00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: And so now we've made it to the next Americans. 715 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:04,800 Speaker 1: Uh are you know, are are doing a lot better 716 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: since we took that loss. Yeah. Yeah. 717 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 7: So what's interesting about this is that a lot of 718 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 7: people they're not getting at the team for what the 719 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,600 Speaker 7: team does on the court are on the field us 720 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 7: is that everyone's really celebrating how much how difference the 721 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:24,040 Speaker 7: fandom is at these games as opposed to MLB games, 722 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 7: And that's the biggest takeaway. And then it's interesting little 723 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:31,400 Speaker 7: tidbit here, so that the fandom is more rabid, more 724 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 7: and more, and uh, they're more in tune, they're louder, 725 00:29:35,200 --> 00:29:37,640 Speaker 7: they're boisterous, there's all the chance, there's all the songs, 726 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:39,920 Speaker 7: there's all these things going on, and you know, typically 727 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 7: get to see those at Major League Baseball. 728 00:29:41,760 --> 00:29:43,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, that's more of like a soccer game kind of. 729 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: There's definitely more of a world feel to it. So 730 00:29:47,480 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: we were at that party on Saturday and it was 731 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,000 Speaker 1: Italy was playing I forget who they were playing. Italy 732 00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:56,560 Speaker 1: be Puerto Rico playing Puerto Rican. Okay, that's right, Maybe 733 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,520 Speaker 1: that's why I was thinking about you too. It was 734 00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: that guy on my show, and I pe Loose is 735 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: good about it. But everyone at the table was like, 736 00:30:05,560 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: how long have they been doing that? Like like, you 737 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,280 Speaker 1: know people who don't pay attention to baseball all the time, 738 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 1: how long have they been doing this? This is super cool? 739 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,520 Speaker 1: Like everyone was like excited about it. My buddy is Italian, 740 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:18,040 Speaker 1: so he was like a pulling for Italy And there 741 00:30:18,040 --> 00:30:19,600 Speaker 1: were other people at the table next to us like 742 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: what is this? Is this like a world Is this 743 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 1: kind of like the Olympics of baseball? And I'm like, 744 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: I think this has been going on for about six 745 00:30:26,800 --> 00:30:28,720 Speaker 1: years or so, right, or has been going on longer. 746 00:30:28,800 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: It's been going on longer. 747 00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:32,520 Speaker 7: The World Baseball Classic started in two thousand and six, 748 00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:33,800 Speaker 7: and it's been in. 749 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 1: The last twenty years. 750 00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, and it's been the last few years where it's 751 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 7: really caught fire, even more so, I would say, because 752 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 7: I think the pandemic. Right after the pandemic, there was 753 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 7: the one that was held in Miami, and that really 754 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 7: caught fire. 755 00:30:48,640 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: I'll say this, baseball. 756 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 7: Fans and baseball players have been aware of this thing 757 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 7: going on. It's us as fans here in America that 758 00:30:56,400 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 7: are the Johnny Come Lately's right, the rest of the world. 759 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:01,400 Speaker 7: This is always been a big deal to them. It's 760 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 7: a really big tournament. 761 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,880 Speaker 1: You know, we've ever talked about it until like recently. 762 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: So it's every four years. 763 00:31:08,720 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 7: And like I said, the last time that I remember, 764 00:31:11,840 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 7: when I do remember it really picking up steam was 765 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 7: when there was really it was hosted in Miami a 766 00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 7: few years ago. And that's what four years ago maybe 767 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 7: or maybe a little. 768 00:31:20,240 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 1: Bit longer than that. 769 00:31:21,280 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 7: So, but now this is an interesting, interesting tippot and 770 00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:26,720 Speaker 7: it's going to what I was saying. Aaron Judge is 771 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:29,440 Speaker 7: part of a team USA. Yeah, this is a quote 772 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:32,920 Speaker 7: from Aaron Judge.
