Kenfield, there was a time 14 00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:50,199 Speaker 1: in my life where I would fill out an NC 15 00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:55,080 Speaker 1: double a tournament bracket for March Madness with so much attention, 16 00:00:55,320 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: time and detail and energy and excitement. And I haven't 17 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:02,959 Speaker 1: even filled out a bracket, kid. I mean, I don't 18 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 1: know if that speaks to my mixed martial arts fanaticism 19 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,119 Speaker 1: or my age or what, but I think I need 20 00:01:08,120 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: to fill out a bracket. Well, I'd imagine it's hard to. 21 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: Keep up with everything you got going on, dude, But yeah, 22 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 3: for me, like I remember, doing like high school was 23 00:01:15,240 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 3: a big thing. 24 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: College it was a big thing. 25 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,240 Speaker 3: Even when I was working after college, it was kind 26 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:20,560 Speaker 3: of a thing amongst all the workers. 27 00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: But now, dude, I. 28 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:23,839 Speaker 3: Mean the only thing I watch is MMA, and even 29 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 3: that right now, with everything going on. 30 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,880 Speaker 1: Is tough to keep up with. So I feel you 31 00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 1: all right. Later today we're going to talk to Trey Ogden. 32 00:01:31,840 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: He will fight Kurt Hollibow in the featured prelim coming 33 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: up UFC Fight Night noam a Unis versus Hebos this weekend. 34 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: If you want Ken flows picks, those can be accessed 35 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: on our full length episode from Monday. He and Brian 36 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,400 Speaker 1: Petrie went six deep on the main car. They also 37 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:48,760 Speaker 1: spent their one thousand dollars. You got to fee pretty 38 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 1: good about the way you're hitting them on the main 39 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: event challenge. You haven't lost a fight in two weeks, 40 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: so I think you're seven six seven successive winning bets, right, 41 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: so you're seven to zero spending your last seven bets. 42 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:02,480 Speaker 1: You have pared it down a little bit. You stopped 43 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: doing parlays. I mean one of those seven hits was 44 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: a parlay. But dude, a couple straight wagers. I'm stunned 45 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: that we've gotten to March eighteenth and not one of 46 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 1: you guys has done a one thousand dollars straight wager 47 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,040 Speaker 1: on a foot Yeah, Well that scares me, man, It 48 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 1: does scare me. 49 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 3: And you know, on those parlays, I was missing them 50 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,639 Speaker 3: by like one fight and it was like something weird 51 00:02:24,720 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 3: happening and this and that. 52 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:27,920 Speaker 1: So I don't know. 53 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 3: I just serve this, John, demit, I just serve this. No, 54 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 3: So I'll take it, dude, I'll take it. I need 55 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,320 Speaker 3: this lead and hopefully I can keep it going for 56 00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 3: the rest of the weeks. So we're gonna have a 57 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 3: round table later. We'll do some the UFC three hundred 58 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 3: stuff with Jason Annik and Big Ron. Pellegrino will also 59 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: talk about Kamzat Chimayev to what extent is he overrated 60 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 3: perhaps underrated. We'll also talk about a potential first title 61 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:55,119 Speaker 3: defense for Ilia Toopuria. But we're gonna spend some time 62 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,799 Speaker 3: on UFC three hundred and Dude, I was laughing out 63 00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 3: loud when I went through this fight card this morning. 64 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 3: Now I'm on the record as suggesting the UFC two 65 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 3: ninety nine in Miami is the deepest fight card I 66 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 3: have ever been assigned to call, and that is absolutely 67 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,080 Speaker 3: the case. But when I look at UFC three hundred 68 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,680 Speaker 3: and this is gonna sound hyperbolic because the UFC cuts 69 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 3: my paycheck. But bro, like it's absurd, Like the early 70 00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 3: prelims are absolutely insurd, absurd. It's four main events for 71 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:29,239 Speaker 3: the early prelims. Yeah, no, absolutely due. You can break 72 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:32,280 Speaker 3: this card up and make three different events and I'd 73 00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 3: be excited about all of them. Like again, you know 74 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,920 Speaker 3: you have Cody Garbrand, Davison Figureio. 75 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 1: First fight of the night. Yeah, first fight of the night. 76 00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: That's ridiculous. 77 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 3: But yeah, man, like if you took the early prelims, 78 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 3: you put it on a main a fight night, I 79 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 3: would be stoked for it. And then the prelims are insane, 80 00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,720 Speaker 3: so yeah, and then the main card of course is fire. 81 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 3: So yeah, man, they stacked it, no question about it. 82 00:03:56,160 --> 00:04:01,720 Speaker 3: As far as like strength skills of fighters, Yeah, I know, 83 00:04:01,840 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 3: I said UFC two ninety nine was better, but I 84 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 3: mean when you have this level of fighter on the 85 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 3: early prelims, I don't remember a card like this. 86 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: En Ever, the featured bout of the early prelims and 87 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 1: these will all be on ESPN. I believe Jalen Turner 88 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: and Hanato Moikano that is the thirteenth and final fight 89 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 1: added to the card. But it's crazy how little shine 90 00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,479 Speaker 1: there has been for Jongwai Lee and Yan Shauna and 91 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,360 Speaker 1: Jongwai Lee. You can be sure is going to get 92 00:04:31,400 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: her shine leading up to UFC three hundred. As watchable 93 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,320 Speaker 1: as any fighter in mixed martial arts man or woman, 94 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: and nobody is talking about her because the surrounding tissue 95 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: is just absurd. I don't want to steal the thunder 96 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 1: because I think we're going to go a little bit 97 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: more in depth later, but it truly is an embarrassment 98 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,599 Speaker 1: of riches and I have a little bit of a 99 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,039 Speaker 1: respite in my schedule right now, and the anticipation, the 100 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:56,560 Speaker 1: excitement for UFC three hundred is on. Kenny. I did 101 00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: want to ask you about the PFL and your role 102 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 1: as commentator. I know we did not see you on 103 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 1: a show earlier this year, so I just didn't know 104 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: if you had anything to bring to our audience. I 105 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: know there's a show April twelfth, on the eve of 106 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: UFC three hundred in Las Vegas, or are you going 107 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: to be there? What is your future hold as far 108 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: as that is all concerned. 109 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, originally I was supposed to be working it, but 110 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 3: but I did inform the PFL that I was no 111 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 3: longer going to do broadcasting for them, and yeah, you know, 112 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 3: it was a tough decision, but it was something that 113 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,599 Speaker 3: I felt made sense for me at this stage of 114 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 3: the game, you know, going to focus on the Anak 115 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 3: and Florian podcast and and being a dad. I've had 116 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 3: a you know, I've been very grateful that I've been 117 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 3: able to spend a lot of time with my family. 118 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 3: I'll be continuing to do that. And yeah, so I'll 119 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 3: be I'll be watching these fights from the sidelines. Wow, 120 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 3: how about that? So I didn't know all of that. 121 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 3: I knew some of the depth of that, but certainly 122 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 3: not all of it. Doting can flow father right, Father 123 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 3: of the fucking Year. So does this have anything to 124 00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 3: do with Bitcoin's success or No. 125 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: You're not the only one asked that. For some reason. 126 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: It helps, it helps, you know, but you know, for me. 127 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,679 Speaker 3: It's just at this stage of the game, I figured, 128 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 3: you know, that this was probably the best decision for 129 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 3: me and my family at this stage the game. 130 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: All right, man, Well, we'll miss hearing you on the PFL. 131 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 1: I'm not sure I'm going to be buying those pay 132 00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: per views anymore, but we hope to see you on 133 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 1: a microphone.

Right now, Bitcoin's 136 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: over sixty seven thousand. It went over seventy two thousand 137 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: at one point in time. But I do have to 138 00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: say I reached out to ken Flow a couple of 139 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,919 Speaker 1: weeks ago when it was down at like fifty one thousand, 140 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,160 Speaker 1: or I should say up to fifty one thousand, when 141 00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:43,799 Speaker 1: I was like, ken Flow, I think I maybe should 142 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: get in. What do you think? And he was like, yeah, 143 00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: if you can afford it, get fucking in. So we 144 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,919 Speaker 1: put three grand on bitcoin at fifty one thousand, and 145 00:06:49,960 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: now we're at sixty seven. So we might make another 146 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: purchase today because it's down from seventy two to sixty seven. 147 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: But all right, so ken Flow no longer on the 148 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 1: sticks with the PFL and we look forward to whatever 149 00:06:59,839 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: the future holds as far as death concern.

How 181 00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 1: we doing good? 182 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 2: Man? 183 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 5: Feeling great? Thanks for having me on. 184 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: It's our pleasure. We won't keep you long, buddy. So 185 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: twenty fourth pro fight. I know you've had some big ones. 186 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: This is the feature prelim this weekend against Kurt Hollibo. 187 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,480 Speaker 1: This one feels pretty big. How you feeling about it? Yeah? 188 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 4: Same? I mean, like the old saying, every fight feels 189 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 4: like the biggest fight of your life, you know, but 190 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,040 Speaker 4: this one has got a little different. I think that 191 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 4: Kurt is one of the better guys. I thought Daniels 192 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 4: Oliver was very good as well. All the guys was good, 193 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 4: but Kurt he presents me any challenges I'm really interested 194 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 4: in getting to test myself against them. It's just an 195 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,880 Speaker 4: honor to get the fight with an ultimate fighter winner 196 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 4: or a tough winner, and I'm really looking forward to 197 00:09:11,400 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 4: this one. 198 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 2: Man. 199 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:15,840 Speaker 1: You know, Mike Kenny Florian bias sometimes gets in the way, 200 00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 1: but I've always suggested that one hundred and fifty five 201 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:20,719 Speaker 1: pounds is the best division in mixed martial arts, and 202 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: I think you're sort of a case study on that. 203 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:26,200 Speaker 1: Maybe number fifty in the world right now, but on 204 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 1: any given Saturday night, competitive against a lot of guys 205 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 1: in that top twenty five, if not top fifteen. Your 206 00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: last fight, certainly for you, your family, your fan base, frustrating 207 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 1: and to it you're essentially on the verge of a 208 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 1: submission win. It ends up being ruled a no contest. 209 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,440 Speaker 1: Not trying to put you on the spot, but was 210 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: there any resolution financially or otherwise after essentially you have 211 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: a submission win taken away? 212 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 5: Yeah? Unfortunately not. 213 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 1: Man. 214 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 5: You know, I thought right after the fight that it 215 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:56,520 Speaker 5: would get. 216 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 4: You know, that I would get paid to win money 217 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 4: and everything would get fixed, because really clear and I 218 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 4: have won on all three judges' scorecards, and we were 219 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 4: past the halfway point of the fight, so like a 220 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,240 Speaker 4: lot of times, it would go to the scorecards. But 221 00:10:09,360 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 4: so we appealed it to the commission and they upheld 222 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 4: the no contest and then we did ask for the 223 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 4: win money and we didn't receive it. I was never 224 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 4: told a hard know that I wouldn't get it, but 225 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 4: it just kept getting like pushed to like elevate it up, 226 00:10:24,240 --> 00:10:26,079 Speaker 4: and then as far as I was aware, it just 227 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 4: kind of stayed on Dana White's desk. 228 00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 5: So I do think that I don't necessarily take it personal. 229 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 4: I do think that my fight was weak before Thanksgiving 230 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 4: and the UFC staff and everyone in the commission, and 231 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 4: everyone goes out that week, you know, on vacation, and 232 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 4: then they came back into like the last few cards 233 00:10:45,120 --> 00:10:46,720 Speaker 4: of the year and then back to the holidays. 234 00:10:46,840 --> 00:10:49,320 Speaker 5: So I just feel like it didn't get the attention 235 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 5: it deserved because of the timing of when it happened. 236 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:57,320 Speaker 4: But you know, it's all good karma, and I feel 237 00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 4: like if you keep putting into this game, it'll it'll 238 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 4: eventually pay you back. 239 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 5: So it was a tough pill to swallow though, and 240 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,960 Speaker 5: I had to like when. 241 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 4: It first happened because honestly, it was one of the 242 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 4: best performances I've ever had. 243 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 5: It was a fantastic fight, and I knew right away. 244 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 4: I was like, man, the whole narrative of this fight 245 00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 4: is going to be this instead of the actual fight 246 00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 4: that took place, and that bothered me. But what I 247 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 4: started to notice was after like a week or two 248 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 4: after the fight, like my own personal narrative was being replaced, 249 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 4: like my memory of the event was being replaced by 250 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,600 Speaker 4: this like frustration and stuff. And so I realized that 251 00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 4: if I didn't make peace with it and let it go, 252 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: that I wouldn't be able to fully absorb the experience 253 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:46,240 Speaker 4: of the fight and these things of the longer I go. 254 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 4: It's always been a little bit of a spiritual journey 255 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 4: for me, you know, but they get more so each time. 256 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 4: And my last fight week was a beautiful week for me, 257 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 4: Like internally, my weight cut was a very beautiful experience 258 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,440 Speaker 4: for me, and then the fight itself was a great 259 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 4: experience for me. 260 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 5: And so I had to just. 261 00:12:03,559 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 4: Let it all go so that I could just sit 262 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 4: in that moment and really be with my art, you know, 263 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 4: because it's bigger than just money. 264 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 5: But I would like the money. 265 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it's got to be frustrating considering you have 266 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 3: the submission man, and at the end of the day, 267 00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 3: that will always be a no contest. 268 00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: So I guess, how did you overcome that mentally? 269 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: Well, you know, at first, I drank a lot of beer. 270 00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,360 Speaker 4: But you know, I've had a lot worse things happen 271 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,199 Speaker 4: to me in this game. A lot of things can 272 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:38,760 Speaker 4: go wrong in a fight, and like I was, the 273 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 4: longer I do this journey and the closer I get 274 00:12:41,400 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 4: to fight week and in fight week lately, I just 275 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 4: keep getting filled with like overwhelming gratitude for the things 276 00:12:48,880 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 4: I have in my life, and so like a lot 277 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 4: of it was like, you know, like at this point 278 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 4: in my life, I refuse to see myself as a victim, 279 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,200 Speaker 4: you know, and so I'm not going to sit around 280 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:03,640 Speaker 4: and feel bad for mysel But I was very grateful 281 00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 4: that I got to fight the fight because I trained 282 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 4: very hard for the fight. So obviously the result is 283 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 4: very frustrating, but it could have been an ipoke in 284 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,959 Speaker 4: one minute into the first round and then it's called 285 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:17,280 Speaker 4: a no contest, and then I didn't actually get the thing, 286 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:20,120 Speaker 4: and so I was just very grateful that I got 287 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 4: to fight. 288 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 5: I everybody that I know, all. 289 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 4: The people I know in person, those are the people 290 00:13:24,960 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 4: I fight for, and they all were very proud of 291 00:13:28,080 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 4: my performance, and so I just tried to stay focused 292 00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 4: on the performance and how I felt in the fight, 293 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 4: and how I felt in fight week, and how I 294 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 4: felt my weight cut and the beautiful like insights I 295 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 4: had that week into myself and stuff, and I just 296 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 4: had to let it go. 297 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 2: Man. 298 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,680 Speaker 4: But I'm not here to say that it was easier, 299 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,600 Speaker 4: that that was just like a like. 300 00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 5: Some kind of instant enlightenment. You know, it was frustrating, for. 301 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,960 Speaker 2: Sure, understood, man, for sure. 302 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,080 Speaker 3: And Trey, you know, looking at this next fight, you know, 303 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,240 Speaker 3: you guys are both jillion jud to black belts. You 304 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 3: can both have a ton of submissions on your record, 305 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 3: both very good strikers as well. How do you break 306 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 3: this one down? Are you guys similar fighters? And where 307 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 3: would you see yourself having any advantage? 308 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 4: Well, I definitely think that we're both complicated puzzles in 309 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 4: our own right, you know, But I don't know. On 310 00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 4: paper we might look similar, but I don't think that 311 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 4: we're really that similar. I think that there's going to 312 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 4: be a pretty good gap in physicality between me and Kurt, 313 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 4: I do think I'll be faster than him. I do 314 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: think I moved longer than him. I do think I 315 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 4: make better all decisions, more consistently and for longer than him. 316 00:14:38,080 --> 00:14:40,160 Speaker 4: But he is dangerous on the feet and he is 317 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 4: also dangerous on the ground. So you know, sometimes you 318 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:45,320 Speaker 4: have a guy's dangerous on the feet or dangerous on 319 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:47,400 Speaker 4: the ground, and Me and Kurt are both dangerous in 320 00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:48,080 Speaker 4: both places. 321 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 5: So that brings its own obstacles. 322 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 4: But you know, in one sense, like what I see 323 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,320 Speaker 4: is Kurt gets behind in his fights a lot, Like 324 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 4: he does make mistakes and he does get behind, and 325 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 4: typically once I get going on you, there's not a 326 00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 4: lot of getting up or recovering. But the other flip 327 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:08,480 Speaker 4: side of that is Kurt can lose a fight for 328 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 4: a while and still win, and so he's he's going 329 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 4: to be there all night and he's going to be 330 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 4: dangerous the whole fight. But I do think that I'm 331 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 4: going to be too much for him physically and technically. 332 00:15:20,160 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 1: You've had a good strength of schedule in the UF, 333 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: seeing a lot of different physical challenges to win over 334 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 1: Daniel zell Huber, you face the outstanding long striker Nacho 335 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:31,520 Speaker 1: of Nasioba Monday's. But yeah, this Kurt Hollibow is a 336 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 1: fucking bull. I'm excited to watch you guys fight. So 337 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 1: where do they have you guys staying this week? 338 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 5: It's at the Palace Station. 339 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,040 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, better tross than that out there, But 340 00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: it is what it is. 341 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 4: I always get an Airbnb in Vegas, so bobig doo, 342 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 4: I've learned my lesson. I want to sleep good on 343 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:51,600 Speaker 4: fight week and Vegas hotels like on Tuesday they're one thing, 344 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 4: but by Thursday there all other thing. By Friday there 345 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 4: it's just why it just build them right. And it's 346 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 4: like you have, you know, can't control who's sleeping in 347 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 4: the rooms next to you. So I always go off 348 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 4: site now, so no big deal to me. 349 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: Mark. 350 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: So, Marathon MMA head coach owner, how do you sort 351 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 1: of balance the coaching and the fighting and do you 352 00:16:11,760 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: do you feel like you have to sort of compromise 353 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: one to serve the other? 354 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 5: Master Well, to me, it's all one mission, and Marathon, 355 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 5: my mission is to master the patterns of martial arts. 356 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 5: I'm trying to basically essentially solve the playbook. I don't 357 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 5: think that anyone has done this yet. 358 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,800 Speaker 4: When I look at like let's say John Donaher for example, 359 00:16:31,800 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 4: and you look at his jiu jitsu team, and you 360 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,600 Speaker 4: see like a group of guys that are running all 361 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 4: the same system at elite level guys and winning all 362 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 4: the time with the same system of information. You don't 363 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 4: see that in MMA yet. What you see as individuals 364 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:48,560 Speaker 4: that are ahead, but there are no teams that have. 365 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 5: Pulled ahead technically. 366 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,000 Speaker 4: And obviously I'm trying to get ahead of the technically 367 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 4: and solve, solve and master the patterns of martial arts. 368 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,160 Speaker 5: So that is my mission. Competing is a part of 369 00:16:58,160 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 5: that mission. 370 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 4: Coaching is a part of that, and teaching people that 371 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 4: don't compete is also a part of that mission. And 372 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:06,679 Speaker 4: I'm doing martial arts all day long. That's why we 373 00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:08,000 Speaker 4: call it the Martial Arts Marathon. 374 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 5: It is a lot to balance, but I feel like 375 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 5: it all adds to itself. 376 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 4: So like maybe coaching full time like I do, maybe 377 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 4: you would think is distracting as me as the fighter, 378 00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:24,919 Speaker 4: but I get a lot out of like coaching Garrett 379 00:17:24,960 --> 00:17:28,919 Speaker 4: Arnfield and going and cornering against Brad Katona and winning 380 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 4: that fight with him, these are experiences to add to 381 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:35,240 Speaker 4: my overall fight iq at to I'm backstage a lot 382 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 4: more than a lot of fighters. You know, I coach 383 00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 4: almost every weekend at regional shows too, and so it's 384 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,280 Speaker 4: big energy right now for our team.

Interesting guy, Ken, Well, 491 00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: you know similar mixed martial arts outlook to a guy 492 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,640 Speaker 1: like you. And when I hear him talk about sort 493 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 1: of a team dominating in jiu jitsu John donaher, He's right, 494 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 1: like no team in MMA. For all the great teams 495 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: out there that have realized other worldly success American Top Team, City, 496 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 1: Kickbox and kill Cliff FC, on and on, I could go. 497 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 1: I'm sure the other gyms are all offended right now 498 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 1: that I only name three, but none of them have 499 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,320 Speaker 1: mastered MMA to the point where they can coach their 500 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: athletes to go out there and in one particular fashion 501 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 1: just dispose of the opposition repeatedly using that martial art 502 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: or that submission. You know what I'm saying like this. 503 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 3: Well, I think it's something we should be chasing, and 504 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,480 Speaker 3: I think, you know, in a lot of ways, we 505 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 3: also need to go further because this game changes and 506 00:22:44,800 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 3: you have to be able to evolve with it. So 507 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,160 Speaker 3: you know, while we've seen a lot of gyms become successful, 508 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 3: they become successful for a period of time and then 509 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 3: the game changes yet again. So it's one of those 510 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:00,639 Speaker 3: things where I believe it's one thing we should be 511 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 3: chasing as far as mastery, but also it's something that's 512 00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 3: evolving all the time. And I think I knew we 513 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 3: were going to have a good conversation because what I 514 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 3: looked at who his favorite was in athletes or fighters 515 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 3: were It was Hicks and Gracie.

Like, was that a 570 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: bit to come on chewing gum today? No, speaking of microphones, 571 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:07,879 Speaker 1: what's up at the studio? Didn't test it out a 572 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 1: couple of minutes ahead, so it didn't work, And now 573 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,919 Speaker 1: you're fucking scrambling. Yeah, if you really want to know, 574 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 1: I should have gotten to the studio sooner because the 575 00:26:16,560 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 1: roadcaster needed an update and I did not manage time. Well, 576 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:24,080 Speaker 1: and here we are, you know, but we're certainly not 577 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: chewing gum on a on a live broadcast of a 578 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 1: podcast that's been around for like nine years. But well, 579 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,119 Speaker 1: I was never mind. I'm going to save what I 580 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: was gonna say. I'm not going to say it. Look 581 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 1: at that Look at that gold gorilla. Huh Right. See 582 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 1: when we when the studio breaks down, at least we 583 00:26:41,320 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 1: get the full And his name's Gus right. So a 584 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:47,919 Speaker 1: lot of things I want to get into. Jay. I 585 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:49,959 Speaker 1: know you have some topics that you want to throw 586 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: at me and Kenny, but I want to start real quickly. 587 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,760 Speaker 1: If I could with UFC three hundred, because you thought 588 00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 1: I was gonna leave with Martin Tabor's haircut. We'll get 589 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:01,159 Speaker 1: to that. You can be sure. Wheels up to Turkey 590 00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 1: for Big Rob Pellegrino. 591 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 2: Yes, he needs. 592 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 1: Right, you guys go together. You know he speaks English. 593 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: UFC three hundred Pat eighta versus Hill. So I was 594 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: doing a little bit of prep this morning, and this 595 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: fight card is absurd. It truly is, right. I know 596 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:23,000 Speaker 1: it was the flavor of the month to suggest that 597 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 1: maybe UFC two ninety nine in Miami was better and 598 00:27:25,920 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: Ron as good as it was. Right, Davison Figueretto is 599 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:32,479 Speaker 1: one of the most electric fighters in UFC history, future 600 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:36,600 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer fighting another former champion, Cody Garbrant. You'll 601 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: be in the building, Ron, but these dudes are gonna 602 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,879 Speaker 1: hit the tunnel at fucking three thirty Pacific or so. 603 00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,440 Speaker 1: And dude, this I mean that Jim Miller and Bobby 604 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 1: Green in the second fight of the night. So with 605 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: respect to UFC two ninety nine and UFC two hundred 606 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: and all the fight cards that have come before it, 607 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,320 Speaker 1: this right here, this fight card that I'm looking at, 608 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 1: Draft one is the best fight card in UFC history. 609 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 2: I mean, without a doubt. I listened everybody, you know, 610 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:06,240 Speaker 2: it was classic. That's what we do. Everybody, MMA, twitter X, 611 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 2: whatever it's called till we do is bitch bitch about everything. 612 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 2: And we have the greatest time ever in the history 613 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 2: of BIXS martial arts. It's it's literally the best time ever. 614 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,360 Speaker 2: It's never been bigger. In this fight card, I got 615 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 2: sweaty palms from your build up. I don't even get 616 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 2: sweaty pops. 617 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 4: Let's go. 618 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 1: He's guy John John Someone two ninety nine or the 619 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: best one you ever ever gonna call all right now, 620 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: three hundred the best one are you call? And the 621 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 1: reason I'm mute. I got a fucking guy powerwashing out here, Okay, 622 00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 1: powerwa washing the patio. Yeah, but anyway, two ninety nine 623 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:38,600 Speaker 1: is the best now, three hundred three oh one, just 624 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: gonna get don't funk out it anyway. Oh man, he 625 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,200 Speaker 1: Sweet Dreams Hill, Baby, I want to talk about because Kenny, 626 00:28:48,200 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: with respect, I don't know if I feel like there's 627 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 1: some of us that give Jamal Hill a better chance 628 00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,760 Speaker 1: than others, And maybe I would put you in the 629 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: category of others. So Sweet Dreams Hill certainly in shape 630 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: right now, big rounds. He's him here and there in Vegas. 631 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: So Sweet James, any more of a chance now than 632 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,400 Speaker 1: maybe you did a few weeks back when it was announced. Yeah, listen, 633 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:11,720 Speaker 1: I think that his best bet heading into this fight, 634 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: regardless of how healthy is or not, is to get 635 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: it done early against Pereira. 636 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 3: I think Pereira, you know, obviously, we all know about 637 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 3: his kicking game and all that stuff. But Jamal Hill, 638 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 3: he's got power. He is very potent hand strikes for sure, 639 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 3: you know, in both hands. I think he has knockout power. 640 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 3: He's very fast, very clean in his ability to get 641 00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 3: in and get out, and I think that's where he 642 00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,440 Speaker 3: can win this fight. 643 00:29:39,360 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 1: So yeah, I mean, I'll listen. I think that. 644 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 3: Early on he's going to be extremely dangerous, whereas Pereira 645 00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:51,240 Speaker 3: needs to chip away at Jamal Hill and then over 646 00:29:51,320 --> 00:29:53,720 Speaker 3: time start taking to fight his way. But I think 647 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 3: early Jamal Hill is going to be very, very dangerous 648 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,720 Speaker 3: and definitely has a shot of winning. 649 00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:00,200 Speaker 1: A Lex Panada right now minus one thirty five on 650 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: DraftKings sportsbook, Jamal Hill comes back at plus one fourteen, 651 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,160 Speaker 1: which is suggestive of the fact that if Jamal Hill 652 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 1: was not coming back, perhaps prematurely from a torn achilles, 653 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: that he might actually be favored in the fight. Ron, 654 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 1: do you have any lean on that UFC three hundred 655 00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: main event? As we sit here, you know, about a month. 656 00:30:19,560 --> 00:30:24,120 Speaker 2: Out, I tell you, I'm so excited about that same thing. 657 00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 2: I wish Jamal had three more months, you know. But 658 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,160 Speaker 2: I got to sit there with him and Anaheim watch 659 00:30:30,240 --> 00:30:32,400 Speaker 2: the entire prelimbs. It was me and him and Blah. 660 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 2: We were talking and we caught up piece Pops in 661 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 2: the bight, you know, in the canteen every now and again, 662 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 2: and he looks good. I mean, he's a big boy, like, 663 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:43,840 Speaker 2: I'm not a little guy fellas and that kid is thick. 664 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:47,239 Speaker 2: How he makes two to five impressive anyway, But uh, 665 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:50,080 Speaker 2: he said he's gonna go right across act. Now, I mean, 666 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: I don't think this is breaking news because he said 667 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:54,200 Speaker 2: it on his own YouTube. But he's like, I'm gonna 668 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 2: box him. I'm gonna go right across the octagon and 669 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:58,640 Speaker 2: I'm getting it on right off the bed. He goes, 670 00:30:58,640 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 2: no foul, he should burn my language. 671 00:31:00,640 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I mean he's gonna go for it. I'm 672 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: a little bit surprised at the betting number though, Alex 673 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,040 Speaker 1: Padada minus one thirty five. You know, I would think 674 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 1: for those who factor Hills Health into the equation at 675 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: Alex Padata's schedule, well, Vegas, I feel like know something you. 676 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,760 Speaker 2: Know, well, poetions is God. Man, what's a scarier guy 677 00:31:18,840 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 2: to come back, you know, especially after it. I don't 678 00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 2: mean I don't even know what you call an Achilles injury. 679 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 2: I mean, like the worst one. I don't even know 680 00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 2: what you call that. But the fact he's doing in 681 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 2: less than a nine months ten months back in there 682 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 2: after surgery, going against that Killerer, I would have liked 683 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:37,720 Speaker 2: to see a few different guys across from me. 684 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:40,200 Speaker 1: If I was in But but you know what these 685 00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 1: achilles injuries about it? You know, I don't mean to 686 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 1: interrupt you, but Aaron Rodgers summoning mountains with Cameron Haynes, 687 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: you know, Kirk Cousins signing in a contract with the 688 00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:50,479 Speaker 1: Atlanta Falcons. Both smashed their achilles or tore him just 689 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 1: like Jamal So different time, you know, I know, and 690 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: and Roger's certainly a lot older. 691 00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 2: Well different sport too, Jay. I mean, you don't have 692 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: a guy trying to kill you with that Kenny foot. 693 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 2: He has to just just kills everybody. But I agree, all. 694 00:32:05,520 --> 00:32:07,240 Speaker 1: Right, Jay, I know you have some topics you want 695 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:08,920 Speaker 1: to throw our way, but I just want to say, 696 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: in closing, I don't think Kenny, it's a great reach 697 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: for me to say. UFC two ninety nine is the 698 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 1: deepest fight card I've ever been assigned. And then the 699 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,000 Speaker 1: next one I call is UFC three hundred. Like this 700 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 1: middle batch of prelims, Kenny Sadik Yusf and Diego Lopez 701 00:32:23,000 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 1: will start that portion. That's a UFC Fight Night nine event. 702 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: Kayla Harrison, right, is one of the most decorated combat 703 00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: sports athletes of all time. She is not even the 704 00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 1: featured prelim. She's not even the bout before the fucking 705 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:37,920 Speaker 1: featured prelim. Right, she's gonna be competing at like five 706 00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: o'clock in the afternoon, right, Calvin Cater and al Jamaine Sterling, 707 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: would you like to be the featured prelim? Sorry, guys, 708 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 1: that slot is taken. But you can compete a little 709 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 1: bit earlier than Yuri Prohske and fucking Alexander Rockets. So 710 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: we're absolutely loaded. And my favorite fight on the company 711 00:32:55,240 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 1: Charles Olavera and Arman Sarjon second fight on pay per view. 712 00:33:00,120 --> 00:33:03,000 Speaker 1: All those guys do is win. Jay, your shirt is pink, 713 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: your hair looks fruity, Yeah, covering it up. I covered 714 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: it up on an earlier episode. What do you have 715 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: for the ron table this week? For the round table? 716 00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 1: I like it. We got to start with Flow though 717 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 1: I want to hear flow first. Yeah, so the UFC 718 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: title three times. But Kenny, I wanted to say before 719 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:27,719 Speaker 1: I asked this question. For me, like, it comes down 720 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: to friendship. I've gone to know Jamal Hill, so the 721 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 1: blinders are on. You can be sure. All right, here 722 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 1: we go, Flow many fans argue Hamsat Chimayav not as 723 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: dominant as he says he is. Some suggest goes all 724 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: out in the first round then coasts the rest of 725 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 1: the fight. What are your thoughts on this and was 726 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 1: it in any way proved by his performances against Kamaru 727 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: Ousman and Gilbert Burns. Yeah? 728 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 3: Well, first of all, those are two very very good fighters, 729 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:58,120 Speaker 3: and you know, we tend to be very picky as fans, 730 00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:00,040 Speaker 3: and it's hard to say, you know, was Chima I 731 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:03,680 Speaker 3: have a victim of inexperience or did maybe Gilbert Burns 732 00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: raise his level to fight Chimayav Right, It's tough to say. 733 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,800 Speaker 3: One thing he did answer I think in both of 734 00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 3: those fights is he's extremely tough and. 735 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: He's not just a hammer. 736 00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 3: If he gets hurt or if he struggles or has 737 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:21,520 Speaker 3: to do with adversity during a fight, he is going 738 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:22,920 Speaker 3: to respond very well. 739 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 1: I think for me, the question mark is can he 740 00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 1: pace himself. 741 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,919 Speaker 3: Extremely well over the course of three rounds or even 742 00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 3: five rounds? And again, sometimes you're not able to do 743 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,799 Speaker 3: that until you actually do that. 744 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,360 Speaker 1: I think Chimaya has serious. 745 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 3: Firepower when you're talking about, you know, the ability to 746 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 3: knock someone out on the feet. I think he is 747 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,840 Speaker 3: extremely athletic with his wrestling, and because of that, I 748 00:34:49,880 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 3: think he's able to make up for whatever lack of 749 00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:56,040 Speaker 3: technique he may have, either with his wrestling or with his. 750 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:57,280 Speaker 1: Technique on the feet. 751 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 3: With that athleticism and with that horse and I think 752 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,240 Speaker 3: that if he is a student of the game, we will. 753 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:07,400 Speaker 1: See an even better Chimayah this time around or in 754 00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:08,080 Speaker 1: his next fight. 755 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 3: So can he be a champ at one hundred and 756 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:14,320 Speaker 3: eighty five pounds, Yes, I think he can be. I 757 00:35:14,320 --> 00:35:16,160 Speaker 3: don't know if that's exactly what you were asking me, 758 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,799 Speaker 3: but as far as you know, have we seen certain weaknesses? Yeah, 759 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:21,680 Speaker 3: I mean a lot of guys will show certain weaknesses, 760 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 3: and Chimayah is still relatively new at this game. He's 761 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 3: not a guy with like twenty fights in the UFC, 762 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,919 Speaker 3: so I think he's still going to continue to get better. 763 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:32,879 Speaker 3: He's learned a lot, and he's fighting extremely high level 764 00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 3: competition of the UFC very early in his career. 765 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,400 Speaker 1: And by the way, those fights against Gilbert Burns and 766 00:35:38,440 --> 00:35:42,200 Speaker 1: Kamara Ousman were both wins for Khamzat Chimayev, who's still undefeated. 767 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: He also is a guy who got deathly ill from 768 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,640 Speaker 1: COVID nineteen retired from MMA. He never makes excuses, right. Certainly, 769 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 1: there have been some issues when it comes to the 770 00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:54,440 Speaker 1: scale and his perceived desire to make one hundred and 771 00:35:54,480 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: seventy pounds, But I do believe in a broad sense, 772 00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 1: unless you are morob Dwallish Willie, there is a price 773 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,520 Speaker 1: to be paid for buckets of MMA offense, and he 774 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,439 Speaker 1: is an offensive fighter who is always trying to kill 775 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 1: the opposition, and he's doing it with wrestling, with grappling, 776 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 1: with strikes that take a lot of energy. So I 777 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,399 Speaker 1: don't know how sustainable it is to throw that much 778 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: offense over twenty five minutes. But I do believe Kamzat 779 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 1: Chimayev is a future UFC champion. I don't believe that 780 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: I have overrated him. I just want to see him 781 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:26,759 Speaker 1: in an active, active competition cycle and uh, you know, 782 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: hopefully twenty twenty four twenty twenty five is the year 783 00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 1: for that big rom. What do you think? I mean, 784 00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: some of the fan base believes that commentators like me 785 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: have overrated Kamzat Chimayev. I don't believe that to be true. 786 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,360 Speaker 2: Well, buddy, you've had a front row seat for this. 787 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 2: I mean, this guy is a whirlwind. When he could 788 00:36:42,120 --> 00:36:45,719 Speaker 2: just his entrance, like the last time when he missed, 789 00:36:45,719 --> 00:36:49,879 Speaker 2: wait against it was supposed to be against. 790 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:51,960 Speaker 1: Kevin Holland fought after her date deeas. 791 00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 2: Headmas udeas No, I know, he thought, but he was 792 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:59,240 Speaker 2: supposed to Oh yeah, I'm sorry, yeah, I miss whatever 793 00:36:59,280 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: the right whatever the they were booming. This is the 794 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 2: first time that he got a little bit of the 795 00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 2: dark side of the of the crowd, you know, because 796 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,840 Speaker 2: most of the time everyone goes nuts and he sprinted 797 00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 2: to the oct the guy, I mean, this guy's a whirlwind. Now, 798 00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 2: if you want to say his tank falls off, you know, 799 00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:19,439 Speaker 2: considerably in the third round or the late second round, 800 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 2: you might be right, but you got to handle the 801 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:25,319 Speaker 2: first six seven minutes of an absolute dynamo. I mean, 802 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 2: like Kamara, Husman is about as seasoned as it guts, 803 00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:32,160 Speaker 2: and he was extremely overwhelmed. He he didn't get you know, 804 00:37:32,239 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 2: finished or choked out in the first round. But if 805 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 2: it is a dump hams out on his head when 806 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 2: he took his back standing, he would have. So, I mean, 807 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 2: you could say what you want, the guy's an animal. 808 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 2: He's a whirlwind at one seventy or eighty. I don't 809 00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 2: think he's ever making win seventy again. But at eighty 810 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 2: five he's a big boy in that skill set, that 811 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 2: one that he is absolutely amazing at. Usually, uh, usually 812 00:37:54,960 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 2: get a championship out of that when you're there. 813 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,719 Speaker 1: Well, haven't seen him in a while. Seems like all 814 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: these boys on the train. Alright, we got another one 815 00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: for you, and I love how Ilia to Puria his 816 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: countryman may Rob getting the shot? All right, John, start 817 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,719 Speaker 1: with you here. Eliot Topurio had suggest to Puria, I 818 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,920 Speaker 1: like saying that had suggested he would not give Max Holloway. Yeah, here, 819 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: Rodriguez or Brian Ortega a title shot once he became champion. 820 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:19,440 Speaker 1: Do you think Toporia has a saying this? And I'll 821 00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:21,760 Speaker 1: say some champions have more say than others. We've certainly 822 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:25,480 Speaker 1: learned over the years. Well, I think Ilia Toportia was 823 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:33,080 Speaker 1: just wanting to criticize fighters for inactivity or casting judgment 824 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:35,440 Speaker 1: at the old guard and hoping that maybe some new 825 00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:39,319 Speaker 1: featherweight contenders would emerge. Ilia Toputia seemingly would have a 826 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 1: lot of leverage right now. He was a pretty fucking 827 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 1: big star before he went out and did what he 828 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: did against the all timer Alexander Volkanowski. And if anybody 829 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:52,719 Speaker 1: has seen what his life has held since, you can 830 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 1: understand that superstar status has already been attained. So yeah, 831 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I think to your point, Jay, certain champions 832 00:38:59,239 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: have more leverage than others when it comes to the 833 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:05,800 Speaker 1: next in line or opposition. But I think it stands 834 00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 1: to reason that he's gonna fight one of the names 835 00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 1: that you just mentioned and he will have no problem 836 00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: Ken Flow signing on the dotted line for that. Absolutely. 837 00:39:13,120 --> 00:39:16,160 Speaker 3: I mean, listen, can you name another fighter that has 838 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 3: walked out in the center pitch of a real Madrid 839 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 3: game to be honored as a chance Like that's insane. 840 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:25,480 Speaker 3: I guess that would. That'd be the equivalent of like 841 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 3: maybe walking out in the Yankees a Red Sox game 842 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 3: to be like, Hi, I'm a champion of the UFC. 843 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:32,080 Speaker 1: Quesh hu. This is massive, massive stuff. 844 00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:35,279 Speaker 3: So yeah, I do think he has a say, even 845 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 3: though he's a fresh champion. I do think he'll have 846 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 3: a massive saying it. I also think he's playing head 847 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 3: games with all of the guys that he's mentioning, and 848 00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 3: he's doing two things. First of all, I think that 849 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,200 Speaker 3: he's getting all those guys to talk about him and 850 00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 3: get ticked off. And they also think that he's leaning 851 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,960 Speaker 3: towards a potential rematch against Volkanowski. 852 00:39:56,040 --> 00:39:56,840 Speaker 1: Because if I'm. 853 00:39:56,680 --> 00:40:00,680 Speaker 3: Topouria, I would be saying I'd much rather their facebolk 854 00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 3: Andofski going off two knockouts in a row, then let 855 00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 3: him recover or have another win in between. I want 856 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 3: this guy at his lowest low And then maybe that's 857 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 3: what Jaboio wants as well. 858 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: So John, I don't know if we have more time here, Ron, 859 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:17,239 Speaker 1: get in there real quick. Eliot to Portia, who does 860 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 1: he have next in your mind? Rematch? 861 00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:25,920 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, I see that. I mean, well you think 862 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 2: about it like Max, I would like to see him 863 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:29,399 Speaker 2: fight Max Holloway, because if Max would bring the fight 864 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,920 Speaker 2: to him, you know he would. But yep, I mean 865 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,400 Speaker 2: I wouldn't want to fight Max Holloway either. So I mean, 866 00:40:34,440 --> 00:40:36,360 Speaker 2: if you're gonna why not take the guy you just 867 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,080 Speaker 2: took out? You just said he's at two holes in 868 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,560 Speaker 2: a row. If it's a quick return, I mean how 869 00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,160 Speaker 2: fast they could they actually go to Spain this year? 870 00:40:43,360 --> 00:40:45,160 Speaker 2: Is that a real thing or this just like. 871 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 1: You try to put it. 872 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, no, no, I'm saying, isn't like the 873 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 2: scheduled donn or is that does that change for a 874 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 2: new market like that? Could they do that? Fuck it? 875 00:40:54,920 --> 00:40:58,359 Speaker 2: I know they could. That's a stupid question form if 876 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 2: if they did that rematch and that was the reason out, 877 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 2: I mean vocally, you know him, he'll take it tomorrow. 878 00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 2: That guy don't care. But to Portia, man, this guy 879 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,960 Speaker 2: is James Bond. Dude. He is He is a good 880 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,040 Speaker 2: looking dude and he is living the life before he 881 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 2: became the jamp And. 882 00:41:12,160 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: Now well, yeah, guys, I'd like to see new Blood 883 00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:16,920 Speaker 1: if it's up to me, and then let vulcresk and 884 00:41:16,960 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 1: then him take the winner, quick John, if we have time, 885 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:21,919 Speaker 1: a quick one out of each of you. You fight 886 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: at UFC three hundred, you're most looking forward to? And 887 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 1: I'll say, because Sweet Dreams, my boy, it's absolutely the 888 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,120 Speaker 1: main event for me to see Sweet Dreams. Shut everybody up, 889 00:41:30,719 --> 00:41:33,839 Speaker 1: flow UFC three hundred. As of this moment, which way 890 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:34,839 Speaker 1: you're looking forward to most? 891 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,920 Speaker 3: I'll scroll through this car and I'm like, damn, there's 892 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 3: not one bad fight, not even They're all great fights. 893 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 1: John Wayley competing. But for me, dude, it's Geechee in Holloway. Yeah, 894 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:48,880 Speaker 1: for me, it's Gategy in Holloway. 895 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 2: Right. 896 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 3: These are two badass dudes going at it who always 897 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:53,960 Speaker 3: fight the same way. 898 00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 1: You know exactly what you're gonna get. 899 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,440 Speaker 3: They're gonna go at it and gonna give us a 900 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,760 Speaker 3: great one, certainly a classic there. 901 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: The MFL big Ron Quick UFC three hundred, which one 902 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:04,280 Speaker 1: you're looking forward to most. 903 00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 2: Sweet dreams of all the time, same as your bro. 904 00:42:07,239 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 2: I can't wait to see that fight. 905 00:42:09,000 --> 00:42:11,560 Speaker 1: Gotta be John. You probably can't say anything you want 906 00:42:11,600 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: to give us an early prelim. Well, if you were 907 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,759 Speaker 1: listening earlier, I talked about Charles du Bronx, Olivera and 908 00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: Arman Surugian, but some selective listening clearly from me the 909 00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: second arriving twin. I'll just say though, in terms of 910 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,879 Speaker 1: Charles Olivera and his greatness. When I hold the fan 911 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,439 Speaker 1: base recently or at least my following as to their 912 00:42:30,480 --> 00:42:35,840 Speaker 1: favorite UFC fighter, overwhelmingly it was Charles du Bronx Olivera 913 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,640 Speaker 1: and John Jones and Dustin Pourier and others. But the 914 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:42,839 Speaker 1: amount of fan agulation and adoration for Charles Olivera, who's 915 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,120 Speaker 1: only lost one time since twenty seventeen, is just absurd, 916 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: And yet half the fan base thinks Arman Sarurugian, who 917 00:42:48,840 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: fought Isla Makashev in his UFC debut, is the best 918 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:56,239 Speaker 1: lightweight in the world. So Charles Olivera versus Arman Saragian 919 00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 1: is as big a fight for the real fans as 920 00:42:59,640 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 1: we can together. And I'll get you guys out of 921 00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:08,279 Speaker 1: here on this marching to Bora's haircut right Ron, you're 922 00:43:08,320 --> 00:43:11,080 Speaker 1: considering going to Turkey to get a hair transplant? Is 923 00:43:11,080 --> 00:43:11,640 Speaker 1: that accurate? 924 00:43:12,840 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 5: No? 925 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: I mean, if I was gonna, i'd go to the best, 926 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 2: and I'm supposedly the best. 927 00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: But you got a handsome fish your head. 928 00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:22,080 Speaker 2: Look, yeah, its to. 929 00:43:22,080 --> 00:43:23,839 Speaker 1: Be dope, that guy. 930 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 2: He looks like Road Warrior mad Max with that Like 931 00:43:26,680 --> 00:43:28,920 Speaker 2: what was that that? 932 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 1: I actually think it's the lesser of certain evils though, yeah, 933 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,279 Speaker 1: like the lesser of two evils in the octagon. Did you, 934 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: I mean, did you like Ti three Voss's do? Like, 935 00:43:38,400 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: thank god, I don't have anything close to that anymore. No, 936 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,600 Speaker 1: thank you, and then getting choked out yikes, bam, bam, 937 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:49,919 Speaker 1: just yikes, Hey, John, are we not talking NC double 938 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:51,719 Speaker 1: A at all. We're just talking to Bora's haircut. We're 939 00:43:51,719 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 1: going to give you a pick for the tournament or 940 00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:57,520 Speaker 1: what certainly tournament action begins in earnest on Thursday. If 941 00:43:57,560 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 1: you have a selection, we will take a national champion. 942 00:44:01,160 --> 00:44:02,839 Speaker 1: Who do you have? Yeah, unless you want to talk 943 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:04,839 Speaker 1: about Martine Tubor so you know, I just want to say, 944 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,360 Speaker 1: everybody loves Yukon for those of you that follow follow 945 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,400 Speaker 1: college basketball, everybody loves Yukon. Even Yukon Verse perdue in 946 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 1: the championship game. So I'm gonna give you some a 947 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,839 Speaker 1: little off the beaten Pat Kelvin Sampson right, been around 948 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:20,280 Speaker 1: for a long time, Houston right. They've lost only eighteen 949 00:44:20,320 --> 00:44:22,400 Speaker 1: games in four years under this guy, Final four the 950 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 1: first year Elite eight to second year Sweet sixteen last year. 951 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 1: So going backwards, you would say, I think they're a 952 00:44:26,760 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 1: little bit due. But John, if you're not going to 953 00:44:28,480 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 1: talk about your Connecticut action, have you forgotten that you 954 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 1: placed it that very early on? Two hundred and fifty 955 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 1: yields twenty two fifty plus nine hundred on the Yukon Huskies. 956 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 1: They're a huge favorite.
