So it 101 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 5: was jumping here yesterday and the night is the actual fight, 102 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,280 Speaker 5: we're going to be in attendance should. 103 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 3: Be good, nice, and there were there a bunch of 104 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,480 Speaker 3: Mexican boxing fans because they are very loud racist. I 105 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: remember back in the day when I covered fights, the 106 00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,920 Speaker 3: very loud, lot of flags, a lot of flags, very 107 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 3: loud and. 108 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, very loud. Yeah. 109 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:38,040 Speaker 5: In fact, this past Thursday on the show, I got 110 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 5: David Benavitez to do a zoom interview and he mentioned 111 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,120 Speaker 5: that because they asked him about his walk up music 112 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 5: and his intro to the ring, and he was talking 113 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 5: about how he's including he's incorporating artists now and he 114 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 5: said he's using Mexican artists because he's like, you know, 115 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:58,040 Speaker 5: most of my fans are Latino and they are very 116 00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 5: loud and supportive. And that was very much the crowd 117 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 5: that we saw here at MGM yesterday. In throngs, and 118 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 5: the thinking is, if Benavetez wins this bout, and it's 119 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 5: not a cakewalk because Moral is undefeated, as I mentioned, 120 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 5: and he's a good boxer less bout so he's a 121 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 5: little Benavitez is a little more experienced. But the thinking is, 122 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 5: if David Benavitez wins this fight, then he's going to 123 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 5: go possibly could fight Canelo, and Canelo has been dodging 124 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 5: Benavitez for a couple of years now because these people 125 00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 5: say he's scared of him. 126 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 1: Ah, the old that's a classic boxing trope that you 127 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 1: are scared of the other guy. 128 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 3: The only Mexican boxing and don't quit, I'm not mister boxing. 129 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 3: But the only one I remember back in my early 130 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 3: days of my career that not every Mexican boxing fan 131 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 3: liked was Oscar de la Hoya. There were people that 132 00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 3: were did not like that. They didn't think he was real, 133 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 3: they thought, and then the photos came out, which kind 134 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,719 Speaker 3: of made things a little awkward, But yeah, that was 135 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: the one that was polarized. I remember de la Hoya 136 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 3: back in the day, but he's like a big boxing 137 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 3: promoter now.

Right, there would be five dollars in the store. 244 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,680 Speaker 5: I think that's about three ninety nine. Oh oh, look 245 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,559 Speaker 5: at that. That's six dollars at the store. And by 246 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 5: the time your bag was full, you owed them money 247 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 5: for more parking. 248 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 3: Yeah.

That's right there. 256 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 3: That's probably how much you think that would cost an 257 00:12:55,840 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 3: a venting machine three bucks something like that. Okay, boom 258 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 3: chicka pop kettle corn. That's what do you think that's 259 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 3: another four dollars or so? Probably? I bet those granola 260 00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 3: bars are expensive. They usually upsell you on the overcharge 261 00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:15,840 Speaker 3: you on the granola bars. 262 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 4: Maybe.

So I didn't have to pay for parking, so 267 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 4: screw them. 268 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 5: We were there working, so technically these snacks were for me. 269 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 5: But what they didn't see these people running the premiere 270 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:40,840 Speaker 5: boxing there. They didn't see Danny g walk over during 271 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 5: the Jim Lampley interview and accidentally put two bags of 272 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 5: corn nuts into his left pocket while putting an extra 273 00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 5: granola bar into his right pocket. And then the Snyder's 274 00:13:52,400 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 5: bags of big pretzels you see there. I slipped those 275 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 5: in my computer bag.

They give you one little 288 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 5: bag of roasted peanuts or like that little checks mix 289 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 5: the poor a little glass of soda for you.

If you lost again, 412 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:51,360 Speaker 1: you'd double. 413 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 3: The bet and you you and then when you win, 414 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 3: you go back down to and you bet that whatever 415 00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 3: your initial amount is. 416 00:20:58,040 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 1: And I did all right. 417 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:03,199 Speaker 3: The problem is you got to sit there forever, and 418 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 3: occasionally you get really nervous because it goes like seven 419 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 3: or eight in a row where it goes the opposite 420 00:21:08,840 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: and then you start to panic a little bit. But 421 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 3: eventually it'll go back. But you just have to have 422 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 3: enough money to and you have to have the patience. 423 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 3: And I also think it's not I don't think it's allowed. 424 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:20,199 Speaker 3: I think you might get in trouble if you do that. 425 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 3: But it does work.

Dan, 429 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 3: if you go seven or eight, you're really betting a 430 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:37,560 Speaker 3: lot of money by the time you get to nine 431 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:38,000 Speaker 3: and ten. 432 00:21:38,920 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 1: So you got to be. 433 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 3: Willing to do that, and if you are, you can. 434 00:21:43,200 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 3: You know you should never take gamming advice from a podcast. 435 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 1: I'm just saying. 436 00:21:47,280 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 3: I'm merely pointing out that I've heard that works.
