Speaker 4: Big job there Cooktufia, crack there, turn out.

14
00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:53,440
Speaker 6: from last Saturday night is still available. Ken Flow, it's

15
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:55,720
Speaker 6: great to see you second time this week, actually the third.

16
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 6: You're probably sick in my voice. You'll have to hear

17
00:00:57,840 --> 00:00:59,680
Speaker 6: it again on pay per view this weekend. But dude,

18
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 6: I was buckled for that watch party, like a little

19
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 6: too much, Basil Hayden. So I think I'm going to

20
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 6: curtail that a little bit if we run that thing

21
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 6: back come super Bowl weekend.

22
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 4: Yeah, that means we need more whatever it is I

23
00:01:10,959 --> 00:01:14,120
Speaker 4: think of that equals ratings. I think the fans have spoken.

24
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 4: They want a saucet up John Annick for not only

25
00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:21,480
Speaker 4: our watch parties, but also for the live broadcast.

26
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,119
Speaker 7: So let's see if we can make that happen.

27
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:25,240
Speaker 3: Dude, We'll see what happens.

28
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,039
Speaker 6: It's an FC simihilation, I think on television, but not

29
00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 6: alm like this.

30
00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 7: You know.

31
00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 6: One thing that I did talk about candidly during the

32
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 6: watch party was the fact that a couple of years ago,

33
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,479
Speaker 6: I was sort of unceremoniously demoted from doing post fight

34
00:01:37,520 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 6: interviews after doing them for ten years. And I did

35
00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 6: tease that if anyone can tell me who my last

36
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 6: post fight interview came with in the octagon, I would

37
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 6: give you two tickets to a future UFC live event.

38
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,720
Speaker 6: No one was able to come up with that answer.

39
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 6: It was actually Ian Maschado.

40
00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 2: Gary.

41
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 6: I believe we were doing a show in Florida, and

42
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 6: if memory serves, maybe Governor Ron DeSantis wanted to meet

43
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,160
Speaker 6: Joe Rogan so rogue and actually went backstage after the

44
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 6: fight and they called on me to do the post

45
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 6: fight interview, which was a very special moment because I

46
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 6: thought there was a chance I would never be back

47
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,320
Speaker 6: in there. But it's still something that eats at me

48
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 6: every day and I'm hoping that it's not the end

49
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 6: of that, but I just wanted to pay that off

50
00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 6: before we got started here today. Aaron Bromstadter from Sportsnet

51
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,880
Speaker 6: going to join us here in about ten minutes as

52
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 6: we count down to UFC two ninety seven. We also

53
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 6: have in studio today my identical twin brother Boston and

54
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,440
Speaker 6: can help us out with a little bit of content.

55
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,800
Speaker 6: Nice job on the watch party, Jay, and I just

56
00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 6: want to let everybody know this black guy has nothing

57
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,480
Speaker 6: to do with our beef last week on Annix Squares

58
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 6: no beef, but I will say the identical twin thing

59
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,000
Speaker 6: man like, I wasn't going to even tell you this.

60
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,120
Speaker 6: I was just about to ask you, hey, you didn't

61
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 6: disclose who you had that post fight interview with, and

62
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 6: a good one, i'llbe it. Garry Good, a guy you

63
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,240
Speaker 6: know well and certainly a guy who's good in the microphones.

64
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 6: So if you were going to do one at a

65
00:02:48,680 --> 00:02:50,960
Speaker 6: random spot, he was a good guy, all right.

66
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 7: So Kenny.

67
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,320
Speaker 6: Earlier this week there was a press conference for this

68
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 6: boxing match between Francis and Ganu and Anthony Joshua, and

69
00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 6: I don't need anything long form right now, but I

70
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 6: did check out the betting line, and it appears as

71
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 6: though Anthony Joshua is like a minus five hundred betting favorite,

72
00:03:06,639 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 6: And that speaks to me that people aren't necessarily leaning

73
00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 6: too much into what Francis and Gano got accomplished against

74
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,480
Speaker 6: Tyson Fury. I know this is a different matchup stylistically,

75
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:19,280
Speaker 6: I understand Joshua's length and reach advantage. But let me

76
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 6: ask you this, are you more encouraged, given what you

77
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 6: saw between in Ghana and Fury, to maybe have a

78
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 6: wager on in Ghano at you know, plus four fifty

79
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 6: or so, or do you lean Joshua at this point

80
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:31,160
Speaker 6: in time?

81
00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 4: I think the simple answer is that yes, I actually

82
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 4: like in Ghano's chances here. I think the odds are

83
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 4: very interesting. However, for those that are watching now, Anthony

84
00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 4: Joshua being at at the forefront of that, I think

85
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,960
Speaker 4: he realizes this isn't just an MMA fighter here. This

86
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,400
Speaker 4: is a guy that is very dangerous who went out

87
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,800
Speaker 4: there and not in my mind, but in a lot

88
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 4: of people's mind, went out there and beat Tyson Fury. Now,

89
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 4: I believe Tyson Fury is a much more technical pure

90
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 4: boxer than say, Anthony Joshua Anthony Joshua was still very

91
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 4: I think, in some ways more dangerous just because of

92
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 4: his knockout power. But we have seen Anthony Joshua broken before,

93
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 4: and I think if you're able to get through that

94
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,239
Speaker 4: defense and land big shots and take away his confidence early,

95
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 4: which I think Francis and Good who has a good

96
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 4: chance of doing I think, and God who can go

97
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 4: out there and absolutely win that fight. I do think

98
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 4: it's an easier fight than Tyson Fury. It's different. I

99
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 4: think it's less complicated in a lot of ways. Doesn't

100
00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 4: mean it's easy, but it's less complicated from a boxing

101
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,760
Speaker 4: perspective than say, Tyson Fury. I think that is pretty clear.

102
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 4: So for that, I like those odds, man, I like

103
00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 4: those odds a lot.

104
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a good way to put it.

105
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 6: I think if I'm not contractually prevented from betting on boxing,

106
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,080
Speaker 6: I'll have a wager on Francis and Gone. I got

107
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 6: to look at my UFC contract. But Jay, you got

108
00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 6: a couple things planned for us here today before we

109
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 6: get to Aaron Bronstead or so, why don't we get

110
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 6: to that business? If you'd be so kind, We know

111
00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,280
Speaker 6: there are a lot of heat on UFC two ninety

112
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 6: nine in Miami. So UFC three hundred, I feel like

113
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 6: trying to catch up. They keep announcing different matchups. You know,

114
00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 6: for me, my dream matchup or whatever it is quote

115
00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 6: unquote below remember the name of Mohamma competing for the

116
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 6: belt against Leon Edwards. But a lot of rumblings out there,

117
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 6: so I guess we'll go to you flow first.

118
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:20,239
Speaker 3: By the way, great to see as always Flow dream

119
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 3: matchups something that hasn't been announced yet. UFC three hundred,

120
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 3: April thirteenth, talk.

121
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 4: To me, yeah, man, So listen, a lot of things

122
00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 4: going to happen, right. We have O'Malley taking on Cheeto

123
00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 4: Vera coming up, assuming assuming O'Malley is able to get

124
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 4: by a very tough cheat o Vera. I think O'Malley

125
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 4: Sanhagen is fascinating to me. You have two guys that

126
00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 4: are tall, lanky, that know how to use it, that

127
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 4: are extremely versatile, that are very dangerous in all areas.

128
00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 4: That's a matchup that I would love to see in

129
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 4: twenty twenty four, and.

130
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,559
Speaker 7: I hope we do. I think there's a strong chance

131
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:55,960
Speaker 7: we do.

132
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:01,800
Speaker 4: Just from a MMA geeks person perspective, I think it

133
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:05,280
Speaker 4: could deliver everything there, so that that's my dream matchup

134
00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 4: for twenty twenty four.

135
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, at some point in twenty twenty four, I think

136
00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 6: there's a decent chance you see that fight. Certainly you're

137
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 6: not going to see Sean Omalley and you FC three hundred.

138
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 6: He's fighting at UFC two ninety nine, and so the

139
00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 6: UFC three hundred card will be completed in totality, I

140
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 6: would think by the time that pay per view happens

141
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,520
Speaker 6: in Miami, but it is hard to forecast. As we

142
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 6: sit forty eight hours out from Sean Strickland and Drake

143
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,400
Speaker 6: is dupless, what's going to happen? Like for me, I

144
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,159
Speaker 6: would love to see Kamzat Chimaya at UFC three hundred

145
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 6: against the winner of this Middleway championship fight. Perhaps promotionally

146
00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:37,720
Speaker 6: they want to give Israel out to Sonya Duples, and

147
00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 6: I understand that makes some sense. That would be a

148
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:44,159
Speaker 6: dream matchup for me because there's obviously a foundation for

149
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:46,680
Speaker 6: that fight. There's friction to that fight as well, But

150
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,960
Speaker 6: Haamzat chimayav at a championship setting is really my dream

151
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 6: for twenty twenty four. My dream matchup for UFC three

152
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 6: hundred was Johan way Lee against Yan Shannah and we're

153
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 6: fucking getting it. So I am excited about that. But

154
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 6: we'll see what happens. You FC three undred coming together.

155
00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 6: I do I do expect it to be a championship

156
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 6: triple header. When all of a sudden stuff Yeah, all right, boys,

157
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:07,279
Speaker 6: a couple of minutes here, a couple of things off

158
00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,800

Speaker 4: on the am track.

187
00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 7: Uh but yeah, I guess.

188
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,040
Speaker 4: I like the fact that I can walk around, you know,

189
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 4: and kind of move around and uh no, I don't

190
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 4: have to have my seatbelt on the whole time. I

191
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,240
Speaker 4: like the freedom of a train. It's a nice peaceful

192
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 4: experience in my In my mind.

193
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 6: I might choose anything over airplane. I might choose like

194
00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,760
Speaker 6: jiu jitsu class or being punched in the face, like

195
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 6: train over plane every day of the week.

196
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 8: Like that.

197
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 6: You like that brand new flight with the panel flying

198
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 6: out as you fly, you know, first flight on that

199
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:46,720

00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:47,079

Speaker 7: All right?

00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: A couple more quickly. Flow doing laundry or vacuuming.

203
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 7: Oh, you know, I like vacuuming.

204
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 4: It's it's it's a little bit get that zen mode

205
00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:57,480
Speaker 4: a little bit.

206
00:08:57,840 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 7: Uh, laundry, you.

207
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:00,959
Speaker 4: Know you got to you got to throw in all

208
00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 4: that dirty sweaty jiu jitsu crap and then throw it

209
00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,679
Speaker 4: into the low throw it in the dryer. You gotta

210
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 4: fold all this stuff that's annoying, that's tedious to me.

211
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,839
Speaker 4: A vacuuming Uh, I don't mind it.

212
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 6: Yeah, go ahead, John, I'm a laundry guy. I'm type A.

213
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 3: I think I'm a fairly elite folder if that doesn't

214
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:19,239
Speaker 3: sound too conceited.

215
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,840
Speaker 6: The other thing, too, is vacuuming is like a strength

216
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 6: and conditioning workout, So I'm not looking to necessarily work

217
00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,280
Speaker 6: out when I'm not working out. So we'll go laundry,

218
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 6: all right, I'll get you out of here on this.

219
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 6: And it's like, I really am more interested in Kenny's

220
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 6: answers because you could be sure, I know what the

221
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:34,079
Speaker 6: fuck this guy's gonna say. All right, flow a day

222
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,520
Speaker 6: out with your family or a day at home by yourself.

223
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 7: Oh that's interesting.

224
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 4: I definitely I try to go inward as much as

225
00:09:44,360 --> 00:09:47,320
Speaker 4: I can, so I definitely value my alone time. But

226
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:52,680
Speaker 4: as my kids are getting older, especially you know my daughter,

227
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 4: you know, she's five now there's only so many more

228
00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,640
Speaker 4: years that I have with her where she's still a

229
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,800
Speaker 4: little kid in my mind. I I kind I've been

230
00:10:00,840 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 4: feeling that so much more now where I kind of

231
00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,200
Speaker 4: don't want to let.

232
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 7: Go of it.

233
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,319
Speaker 4: So I got to take advantage of that. So family time,

234
00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 4: I think, is trumping that now, Yeah, for sure.

235
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 6: So we're on episode four sixty today. I don't know

236
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,240
Speaker 6: that my wife has ingested any one of these things.

237
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 6: So if I wanted to say home alone, I could,

238
00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:23,319
Speaker 6: but I love my children, so I would say a

239

293
00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 6: these airwaves, of course, but to have your career sort

294
00:12:40,520 --> 00:12:42,360
Speaker 6: of I know you're still a young man, but come

295
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 6: full circle now eighteen years later to be under that

296
00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:45,440
Speaker 6: sports netbank.

297
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty awesome, man.

298
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 8: I mean, interestingly enough, we've got UFC two nineties, have

299
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,880
Speaker 8: an in Toronto, like three weeks into my job here.

300
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,640
Speaker 1: I mean, they throw me right into the fire here,

301
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 1: but I love it.

302
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 8: And I've got to say the team of sports Net

303
00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,240
Speaker 8: have just been absolutely crossing it. I'm so high could

304
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 8: have such a great support system around me. Everybody has

305
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 8: been so welcoming, So it's really honestly been awesome.

306
00:13:05,960 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 6: All Right, we will get to some fight related stuff shortly.

307
00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 6: But I have always said, and you've heard me say this,

308
00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:15,360
Speaker 6: per capita, I think mixed martial arts fans in Canada

309
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,559
Speaker 6: make more noise than anywhere else in the world. Now

310
00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:21,120
Speaker 6: you can argue for the Aussies, the Brazilian, certainly anybody

311
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 6: in the UK. But when I was cutting my teeth

312
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 6: journalistically in the MMA world at ESPN and Kenny and

313
00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:29,800
Speaker 6: I were covering like UFC one thirteen, that was like

314
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 6: as deafening an environment in Montreal as I had ever

315
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,679
Speaker 6: been in and George sant Pierre wasn't even competing. So

316
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 6: first time back in Toronto in a long time. How

317
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 6: do you sort of quantify your enthusiasm for this live

318
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:43,920
Speaker 6: event on pay per view coming up in a few.

319
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:46,599
Speaker 8: Days Well Weather Reside, which I think a lot of

320
00:13:46,600 --> 00:13:49,240
Speaker 8: the UFC fighters are in for a rude awakening when

321
00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 8: they land here in the YYZ. I think that it's

322
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 8: going to be awesome. I mean I was thinking about

323
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,360
Speaker 8: this earlier, John, and you can probably vouch for this,

324
00:13:56,480 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 8: Like that card in Vancouver was a special card in

325
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,840
Speaker 8: terms of the element of it, Like being there in

326
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 8: that building, it really did feel like a special night.

327
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 8: Was the first time the UFC had been back in Canada.

328
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:08,680
Speaker 8: Did it translate for you sitting Kateside as something that

329
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 8: felt bigger than other pay per views?

330
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:12,559
Speaker 3: There's no doubt about it.

331
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 6: It definitely felt enormous, and certainly I think the Canadian

332
00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,679
Speaker 6: success on that night had a lot to do with it.

333
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 6: But yeah, no, it felt huge, It felt long overdue,

334
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,640
Speaker 6: and I think this one feels even more so because

335
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 6: as much as Mike Malott enjoyed making that walk in Vancouver,

336
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 6: this is an entirely different initiative, essentially in his backyard.

337
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, for sure, these guys have dreamt of fighting in

338
00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,680
Speaker 8: this building. Himself and Jazz divisions. I'm serious city his

339
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 8: UFC debut probably feels that same way. And you know,

340
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 8: the Canadians had a lot of success in Vancouver, there

341
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 8: were six of them. Now we've got nine of the

342
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,200
Speaker 8: first ten fights at UFC two ninety seven has a Canadian,

343
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 8: So you know it's going to be a lot of

344
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:49,680
Speaker 8: pressure for I think these athletes to try to replicate

345
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 8: that same success.

346
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,440
Speaker 6: Well before I lay out for the professional athlete, Kenny

347
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,400
Speaker 6: Flori and I just want to get your thoughts on this.

348
00:14:56,200 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 6: There have been some complaints about the level of this

349
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 6: fight card a special relative to the depth on some

350
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 6: of these surrounding pay per views. UFC two ninety nine

351
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 6: UFC three hundred got anything for us on that In

352
00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,040
Speaker 6: terms of the pulse in the North and these fans

353
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 6: about UFC two ninety seven specifically, well.

354
00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 8: I think there's a hunger for people to come back

355
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 8: and see the live experience, so I don't think the

356
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 8: card is quite as stacked. I mean, you look at

357
00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 8: two ninety nine compared to this, it's comparing apples to oranges.

358
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,000
Speaker 8: And I even went back and looked at the UFC

359
00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 8: Fight Night card in Calgary that was on Dana White's

360
00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 8: fiftieth birthday back in the day, and on that card

361
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 8: it was Pourier, Alvarez too, Yoanni and j Chick was

362
00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 8: on the card. Jose Aldo was on the card, A

363
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,480
Speaker 8: young Islamihachev was in the car, so Khabib was in

364
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:37,920
Speaker 8: the building.

365
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 1: It was a really stacked fight night card. And now

366
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: we've got this card. We've had some fights fall off

367
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: unfortunately that never got replaced.

368
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 8: I think that's what the biggest complaint is right now

369
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:47,200
Speaker 8: that I'm hearing from the Canadian fans, is you lose

370
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:51,920
Speaker 8: you know, Rackets versus Blahovich, you lose Alberg versus Reis,

371
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:52,600
Speaker 8: and they.

372
00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 1: Didn't you add anything new to the card.

373
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,320
Speaker 8: So I think that's something of a complaint that I've

374
00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 8: been hearing from those that bought tickets to this event.

375
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 4: You know, certainly since the retirement of George Saint Pierre,

376
00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 4: we've seen less cards in Canada. And whether that's because

377
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 4: of just the international expansion in general of the UFC

378
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 4: and how much it's grown, or maybe it's because we

379
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,880
Speaker 4: don't have that huge star like at George Saint Pierre

380
00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 4: in Canada, or you know, people, you know, some of

381
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 4: the fighters complained about the taxes or whatever.

382
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 7: What do you think the reason is for that?

383
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 4: And is there a guy either on the card or

384
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:27,720
Speaker 4: off the card that you think can break through as

385
00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 4: that next you know, potential star on that George Saint

386
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:31,760
Speaker 4: Pierre level.

387
00:16:32,440 --> 00:16:34,280
Speaker 8: Well, that's weird, Kennedy, because I don't think it's by design.

388
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,080
Speaker 8: I think you look at the pandemic and it's slowing

389
00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 8: down to really travel everywhere. You know, prior to the pandemic,

390
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:41,120
Speaker 8: it was a pretty consistent one pay per view three

391
00:16:41,160 --> 00:16:43,880
Speaker 8: fight nights every single year in Canada. I don't think

392
00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,000
Speaker 8: it's going to get back to that level even now.

393
00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:47,600
Speaker 8: I think we're probably still going to see one pay

394
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 8: per view maybe two fight nights a year, and I

395
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:51,680
Speaker 8: think that's kind of a product of the APEX being

396
00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:53,840
Speaker 8: used for cards more often for fight nights. I think

397
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 8: that overall, there's just gonna be less fight nights to

398
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 8: go around. But I do think that you're right in

399
00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,600
Speaker 8: terms of the star power. You look at Canada and

400
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,960
Speaker 8: we haven't really seen a bursioning star.

401
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 1: I mean, Felicia Spencer.

402
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,760
Speaker 8: Fought for the title, but I think that's because that

403
00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 8: was like a four person division at one hundred and

404
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 8: forty five pounds.

405
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:09,919
Speaker 1: That disrespect of Felicia.

406
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,080
Speaker 8: But you know, we haven't really seen any Canadians fight

407
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:13,960
Speaker 8: for titles lately, but we're starting to see a lot

408
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,919
Speaker 8: of them. Come on, we talk about that Vancouver car,

409
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:18,600
Speaker 8: then running the table going six to zero. Lukey Goddenez

410
00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 8: had she was the first female to have four UFC

411
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,280
Speaker 8: wins in a calendar year back in twenty twenty three.

412
00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,240
Speaker 8: So I think her moving over to ent Tromp Jaym

413
00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 8: in Mexico is going to give her, you know, the

414
00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 8: chance to potentially compete for a championship at some point

415
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 8: in time. She can keep up this sort of tear

416
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,639
Speaker 8: that she's on. But we've got Mike Mallott. And the

417
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,760
Speaker 8: thing about Mike Malot is he's a welterweight and with

418
00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 8: that comes the expectation because you have the torch bearers,

419
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,160
Speaker 8: not just in GSP, but Carlos Newton before him GSP,

420
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,600
Speaker 8: then Rory McDonald that followed him. I mean, when you

421
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,920
Speaker 8: hear a Canadian welterweight, you have those big shoes to fill.

422
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:54,720
Speaker 8: And I don't think Mike Malott really, you know, gets

423
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 8: weighed down.

424
00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:55,959
Speaker 1: By that pressure.

425
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:58,479
Speaker 8: I think that his mentality is strong enough to kind of,

426
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,000
Speaker 8: you know, allow him to be his own man. But

427
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:02,520
Speaker 8: I think that the Canadians are always going to look

428
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,040
Speaker 8: at the Canadian welterweights that are coming up and compare

429
00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 8: them to those guys, and those are lofty comparisons.

430
00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 4: And what do you think, you know, in impressive win,

431
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,119
Speaker 4: a dominant win over someone like Neil Magni does for

432
00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:14,600
Speaker 4: Mike Mallott in Canada.

433
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 8: Oh, it does a ton because they'll get him into

434
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,600
Speaker 8: the rankings at welterweight, and that's not an easy rankings

435
00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 8: to crack.

436
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: If you look at the welterweight division, it's really stacked.

437
00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 8: But on top of that, I think when the UFC

438
00:18:23,080 --> 00:18:25,480
Speaker 8: starts coming back to Canada for fight nights, that's where

439
00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:27,800
Speaker 8: Mike Malot can start getting those big opportunities to headline

440
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:30,920
Speaker 8: fight nights against some of the higher ranked welterweights out there.

441
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 8: I mean, even if he loses to Neil Magne, I

442
00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,480
Speaker 8: still think you could make a case that he could

443
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 8: headline some Canadian fight night cards as well. But I

444
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,679
Speaker 8: think that the chance of his meteoric rise continuing with

445
00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 8: a win over Neil Magni, that's almost a certain guy's

446
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,840
Speaker 8: great on the mic. Good looking guy, action fighter who

447
00:18:45,880 --> 00:18:47,800
Speaker 8: likes to get finishes. I think that he's really the

448
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:50,160
Speaker 8: total package in that regard. But as you know, in MMA,

449
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:52,199
Speaker 8: you're only as good as your last win, and you know,

450
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,120
Speaker 8: a win over Neil Magne I think would do wonders

451
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 8: for him sports.

452
00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 6: And that's Aaron Brons said or with us here on

453
00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 6: the Anakin Flooring podcast on x You can find him

454
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,560
Speaker 6: at Aaron Brouns that are on Instagram. It is at

455
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 6: a bronzeteatter and you sort of made the segue for

456
00:19:04,800 --> 00:19:07,240
Speaker 6: me as I harken back to the days of live

457
00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:12,040
Speaker 6: events in Halifax and Saskatoon. A UFC Fight Night headlined

458
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:14,639
Speaker 6: by Mike Malott in the Great White North seems to

459
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 6: be the requisite next step. Now, my colleague Dave Shaw

460
00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:19,640
Speaker 6: is very tight lipped with me, and I'm not trying

461
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,119
Speaker 6: to put you on the spot here, but given the

462
00:19:22,240 --> 00:19:26,160
Speaker 6: UFC Apex reality that we all live in, however unfortunate,

463
00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:29,960
Speaker 6: how confident are you that there would be a non

464
00:19:30,040 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 6: pay per view at UFC Fight Night in Canada in

465
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:33,400
Speaker 6: twenty twenty four.

466
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:35,480
Speaker 1: Well, I think we'll see two of them. I think

467
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:36,440
Speaker 1: we'll see one.

468
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,800
Speaker 8: If I had to guess in Halifax, and I think

469
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:40,639
Speaker 8: the other one will be somewhere on the West coast,

470
00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 8: likely Calgary or Edmonton. Again, these are educated guesses, I

471
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 8: would call them. But I think that's kind of where

472
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 8: we're going to see fighte Night's fall. I think they

473
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,800
Speaker 8: are starting to get into the you know, back to

474
00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 8: the old school calendars where you are trying to check

475
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 8: some boxes and say, okay, for Canada, we want three

476
00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 8: or four events a year.

477
00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 1: You know, we want one in Ireland, we want one

478
00:20:00,320 --> 00:20:02,919
Speaker 1: in France, one in Sweden, bity.

479
00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 8: You know, you look at the different countries and you

480
00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,960
Speaker 8: try to allot the fin nights that you do have.

481
00:20:06,960 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 1: To those countries.

482
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,359
Speaker 8: But hey, I mean the APEX is still seemingly going

483
00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 8: to be used for the foreseeable future. So I think

484
00:20:12,359 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 8: a lot of the destinations that are craving the UFC.

485
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,800
Speaker 8: That's why we're seeing such high gates and attendance at

486
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 8: a lot of these events, is because there's a real

487
00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 8: hunger for the UFC to come to those cities.

488
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 6: And other nations are experiencing this as well, right, I mean,

489
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,920
Speaker 6: Kenny and I have been to Brazil dozens of times.

490
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,399
Speaker 6: I think I've done twenty nine live UFC events in

491
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 6: Brazil everywhere from Jadaguad du Seoul to Uber Lancia and

492
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 6: everywhere else. But it just isn't happening with the frequency

493
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,600
Speaker 6: that it was several years ago. So in terms of

494
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 6: this main event, I mean this is the good news

495
00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,480
Speaker 6: because for me, the jumping off point for all of

496
00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 6: these pay per views relative to my own internal excitement,

497
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,840
Speaker 6: is the main event. This is the first UFC Midway

498
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 6: Championship fight not featuring into a lot of sonya since

499
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:54,239
Speaker 6: George Saint Pierre Font Michael Bisping in twenty seventeen. I

500
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 6: know we're aligned here ab This fight Sean Strickland Dracus

501
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 6: du plus c is of the highly anticiy paid variety,

502
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,000
Speaker 6: one of my more anticipated fights Championship or otherwise in

503
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 6: the entire first quarter, which is loaded. So where are

504
00:21:06,680 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 6: you as far as your excitement for this main event

505
00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:09,360
Speaker 6: coming up sat Dry night.

506
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,760
Speaker 8: Well, first off, that's a tremendous stat that I borrow

507
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:13,800
Speaker 8: from you this week when I'm doing interviews, so I'll

508
00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,080
Speaker 8: be sure to credit you when I do. But yeah,

509
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,360
Speaker 8: I'm very excited because I think that Drake's duple see

510
00:21:18,400 --> 00:21:21,119
Speaker 8: is a guy that's been incredibly slept on for the

511
00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:23,240
Speaker 8: last year or so. You know, when people are making

512
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:25,520
Speaker 8: predictions about that Whitaker fight, I get a lot of

513
00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 8: them wrong, but that was one of the ones that

514
00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:28,280
Speaker 8: I got right. I thought that Dracus was going to

515
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:30,440
Speaker 8: get the knockout against Robert Whitaker. So I'll pat myself

516
00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 8: on the back a little Berry Horroritz style there. But

517
00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,760
Speaker 8: I think that when you look at the middleweight division,

518
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,479
Speaker 8: I think that there's a lot of intrigue from what happens,

519
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,520
Speaker 8: not just in this fight, but the fallout from this fight.

520
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:42,760
Speaker 1: And that's why I'm very curious to see what happens.

521
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,000
Speaker 1: We'll see if you.

522
00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:47,119
Speaker 8: Know, Sean Strickland's win is going to be written off

523
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:48,919
Speaker 8: as being a flash in the pan, or getting Israel

524
00:21:48,960 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 8: on a bad night and Dracus walks through him, or

525
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,240
Speaker 8: we're going to see if Sean Strickland's able to fight

526
00:21:54,359 --> 00:21:56,679
Speaker 8: a guy that has not yet lost in the UFC.

527
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 8: In Dracus duplay see and do what he does to

528
00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 8: all of the other opponents that he's beaten, pressure them,

529
00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,760
Speaker 8: suffocate them, and put on that kind of pressure that

530
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,080
Speaker 8: has made a lot of his opponents wilt.

531
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,000
Speaker 6: So perhaps we as a fan base shouldn't have been

532
00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 6: surprised that Sean Strickland had the crowd in Sydney, Australia

533
00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 6: against Israel. Loe of Sonia, of course, is he beating

534
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 6: their favorite son, Robert Whitaker didn't necessarily help his public

535
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 6: approval rating in a country that is not his home nation,

536
00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:24,879
Speaker 6: but certainly a country in which he has had a

537
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:28,040
Speaker 6: lot of support. So any expectations as to who might

538
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:32,160
Speaker 6: have the crowd at Scotia Bank Arena comes Saturday night, well.

539
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 8: Me eager to see what happens at the pres conference

540
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:35,639
Speaker 8: on Thursday. Vase, if Sean Strickland comes in and complaining

541
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:37,320
Speaker 8: about gun control in the weather, I think that maybe

542
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:38,879
Speaker 8: the Canadians will turn on them in a hurry. But

543
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:41,960
Speaker 8: the Canadians usually like the cheer for everybody when it

544
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 8: comes to mixed martial arans. I've noticed you don't really

545
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:47,520
Speaker 8: have a lot of disrespect from the Canadian fans, so

546
00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:49,239
Speaker 8: I think we'll have to see how it plays out

547
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,159
Speaker 8: with the press conference honestly before I can make a

548
00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 8: really valid prediction, but I think that they'll probably be

549
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 8: kind to both fighters.

550
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,679
Speaker 1: I had the guess so.

551
00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,920
Speaker 6: At times in the past when you and I have

552
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 6: spoken privately. You have pine to be on the road more,

553
00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 6: and I'm not necessarily trying to put you on the

554
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,800
Speaker 6: spot nor pull back the curtain, But in terms of

555
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:09,840
Speaker 6: this new gig with Sportsnet, can you tell us anything

556
00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 6: as to what it means for your coverage of the

557
00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,040
Speaker 6: UFC in twenty twenty four and maybe beyond this first

558
00:23:15,119 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 6: year back with the company.

559
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm hoping to be at all of the major

560
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,960
Speaker 8: North American pay per views like I have been historically,

561
00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:25,119
Speaker 8: and I'm also continuing my role as a commentator for

562
00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 8: Unified MMA, and they've got a card the night before

563
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:30,440
Speaker 8: UFC two ninety seven with Dana White looking for a fight.

564
00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:33,080
Speaker 8: Dana's going to be in attendance scouting some talent, so

565
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:34,320
Speaker 8: that's going to be a lot of fun as well.

566
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,720
Speaker 8: So I'm doing double duty this week with that, but

567
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:39,760
Speaker 8: I'm not really sure, to be honest, Like, our mindset

568
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,679
Speaker 8: right now, it's almost like the same as the fighter's mindset,

569
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 8: like there's no tomorrow after January twentieth. For us, the

570
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,080
Speaker 8: day after January twenty this is when we can kind

571
00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 8: of recalibrate. I'm still so new to sports and we

572
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,399
Speaker 8: have this big pay per view in Toronto where our

573
00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,280
Speaker 8: studios are in front of us, and we've really been

574
00:23:54,359 --> 00:23:56,439
Speaker 8: putting all of our eggs in that basket for now,

575
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 8: and then we're going to be able to make adjustments,

576
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,439
Speaker 8: see what works, see what didn't from this, and then

577
00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:02,280
Speaker 8: decide what direction.

578
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: We want to go.

579
00:24:02,560 --> 00:24:04,200
Speaker 8: And so I can't really give you a great answer

580
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:05,399
Speaker 8: right now because I don't have it personally.

581
00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:08,479
Speaker 6: All right, Well, hopefully you FC two ninety seven as

582
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 6: an absolute monster and it leads to more of your coverage.

583
00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 6: I'm curious what it's like for you leaving the children though,

584
00:24:13,600 --> 00:24:15,800
Speaker 6: because I'm away one hundred nights a year and leaving

585
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,760
Speaker 6: my kids and leaving my family at thirty five years old.

586
00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,479
Speaker 6: You know, I'm fucking racing out the door. Now at

587
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,359
Speaker 6: forty five, I'm crying, whether crying with my dogs. So

588
00:24:25,440 --> 00:24:27,399
Speaker 6: I'm curious how it is for you or do you

589
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 6: think it sort of helps your work life balance to

590
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 6: get away and then come home and you know, be

591
00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:33,640
Speaker 6: excited to be back home.

592
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,200
Speaker 8: See, for me, it was kind of the opposite because

593
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 8: you know, early on, when I was in my mid thirties,

594
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,320
Speaker 8: we had young kids at home, so it was so

595
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 8: painful for me to leave because my wife was just drowning. Like,

596
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 8: we had two kids that were like under three years

597
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:49,440
Speaker 8: old that she had to deal with when I was

598
00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:51,720
Speaker 8: on the road. So it made it a lot more

599
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 8: challenging for me to travel for that reason. So now

600
00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:58,440
Speaker 8: with all of the kids in school at least, you know,

601
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,760
Speaker 8: when I do leave, my wife able to take like

602
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:04,200
Speaker 8: six hours at home without having kids running around and

603
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 8: going crazy, So she's able to get that sort of

604
00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 8: reprieve that she didn't get before. You know, honestly, the

605
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 8: pandemic was something of a saving grace for us because

606
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 8: about two years without traveling when I'm at home and

607
00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,359
Speaker 8: we have two young kids. Yeah, you know, it actually

608
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 8: really helped us out a lot because I was able

609
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 8: to really you know, stay at home and focus on

610
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 8: them during those really difficult years. You know, anybody who

611
00:25:24,640 --> 00:25:27,160
Speaker 8: has young kids, especially two young kids at the same time,

612
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:30,560
Speaker 8: you know how how difficult that is. So it's kind

613
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:32,399
Speaker 8: of the opposite for me, Like I'm excited to get

614
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,480
Speaker 8: on a plane now because I'm not as worried about,

615
00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,280
Speaker 8: you know, my wife having to really you know, pick.

616
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: Up that much slack.

617
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 8: She still has to do a lot, Don't get me wrong,

618
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,840
Speaker 8: when I'm gone, I still appreciate the heck out of

619
00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 8: herfore like I couldn't do this without her. She's like

620
00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 8: a godsend for me because she's able to make sure

621
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,239
Speaker 8: that the kids are you know, have everything that they need.

622
00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:52,080
Speaker 1: But now that they're able to go.

623
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:54,359
Speaker 8: To school, you know, she at least gets a little

624
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 8: bit of me time, which she, you know, desperately needed

625
00:25:57,040 --> 00:25:58,800
Speaker 8: when I was on the road back when I was

626
00:25:58,840 --> 00:25:59,600
Speaker 8: in my mid thirties.

627
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:02,639
Speaker 3: That's very nice you to say. Hopefully she listens to

628
00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:03,639
Speaker 3: the Anakin Floran podcast.

629
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,359
Speaker 1: Hopefully she doesn't. He doesn't.

630
00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,760
Speaker 8: He didn't watch the Sport Island any A podcast, so

631
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 8: you know she might hear me from upstairs.

632
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,280
Speaker 1: That's about as close as we'll get, all.

633
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 3: Right before I let you go. And I can't wait

634
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:14,920
Speaker 3: to see in Toronto.

635
00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 6: In terms of the Canadian talent, either on this card

636
00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 6: or beyond, most people ubiquitously believe right now that Mike

637
00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:25,880
Speaker 6: Malott is Canada's best hope for UFC Golden Glory. Brad

638
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,320
Speaker 6: Kttona is going to be a tough out at one

639
00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 6: hundred and thirty five pounds, one of the best cardiovascular

640
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 6: bases and motors in all of MMA, Charles Jordaine, Marc

641
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,040
Speaker 6: Andre Barrio. I'm glad you mentioned lupy Go Dinez because

642
00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 6: I think a lot of us forget about the Canadian Association.

643
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 6: Jasmine Jazz, the busiesst is coming off a lost to

644
00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,199
Speaker 6: Tracy Cortes. But of all the Canadian names other than

645
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,879
Speaker 6: Mike Mallott, if you had to plant your flag on

646
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 6: one of those athletes to either get to the rankings

647
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,879
Speaker 6: or make a concerted run, is it one of the

648
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:55,600
Speaker 6: names I mentioned or someone else?

649
00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's loopy.

650
00:26:57,280 --> 00:26:59,840
Speaker 8: I think that with the improvements that we've seen from

651
00:26:59,840 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 8: her and her training with Alexa Grosso every single day.

652
00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:04,639
Speaker 8: Not to mention, you're also going to look at the

653
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,000
Speaker 8: division and the depth of each division and where she

654
00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,680
Speaker 8: can move up the fastest. And I think that that

655
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:11,760
Speaker 8: would be a strawweight, you know. I think that you

656
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:14,479
Speaker 8: look at the other divisions. One five Charles roor Dan

657
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,240
Speaker 8: is still in his twenties. He's a beast, but you

658
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,320
Speaker 8: look up that division and it's just a division. It's

659
00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,680
Speaker 8: murderers row. It's really difficult for me to predict that

660
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:23,680
Speaker 8: he's going to be a champion. Brad Katona one hundred

661
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 8: and thirty five pounds. Again, very hard for me to

662
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 8: predict that he's going to be a champion when you

663
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 8: look at all of the guys, including Mirod Duallacefield who

664
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:30,879
Speaker 8: has a win over him. I think that there's just

665
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 8: a you have to look at the divisions where they

666
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 8: can move up the fastest. And I think that Loopy

667
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 8: at one hundred and fifteen punds with her wrestling pedigree,

668
00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:41,720
Speaker 8: with her her pace, I think that she is somebody

669
00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,440
Speaker 8: that if I had to pick one, I think she's

670
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,280
Speaker 8: somebody that we could really get behind. I mean, Mexico

671
00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 8: can get behind her as well. I know we're seeing

672
00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,960
Speaker 8: a lot of very successful Mexicans, and you know, to

673
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 8: have a Mexican and Toadian champion simultaneously in her, I

674
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,000
Speaker 8: think that that would be really cool for both of

675
00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:01,480
Speaker 8: those countries, a real NAFTA type association, alright, But I

676
00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 8: think that she probably is the one that would be

677
00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,000
Speaker 8: the most likely to have an opportunity.

678
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a great fucking answer from one of the

679
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 6: best MMA journalists in the business. Aaron Bronstetter on x

680
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 6: at Aaron bron Setter on Instagram at a bronzeteatter. Yeah,

681
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 6: I might be higher on Katona than most, but he's

682
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,440
Speaker 6: still got to get through Garrett Arnfield this weekend, and

683
00:28:18,560 --> 00:28:21,040
Speaker 6: divisionally it's hard to export. I had to run at

684
00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 6: one hundred and thirty five pounds. Aaron Bronstetter, Great to

685
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 6: have you back on the airwaves, buddy. We will see

686
00:28:25,080 --> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 6: you in about forty eight hours or so in Torontoo.

687
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:27,719
Speaker 5: Man.

688
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 8: Not as great as it is for me to be

689
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,080
Speaker 8: back with you, guys. I'm really thrilled and I'm looking

690
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 8: forward to seeing you later this week.

691
00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:33,719
Speaker 1: John M. Kenny all the best man.

692
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 8: Nice to see you as well, and you know, good

693
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,760
Speaker 8: on you for staying sobergin those watch parties. I mean,

694
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 8: if anybody can get canceled, is going to be John

695
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 8: and Jason now. So I'm playing it safe and I.

696
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 1: Can appreciate that.

697
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 3: Hey, thank you, buddy. We'll see you soon.

698
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:45,360
Speaker 1: I take care, guys.

699
00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,400
Speaker 6: See you there there. He is a great Aaron bron

700
00:28:48,480 --> 00:28:51,520
Speaker 6: Setter with us here on the Anak and Florian podcast.

701
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 7: Yeah.

702
00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 6: I do think I might get canceled at some point, Kenny,

703
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:58,640
Speaker 6: and you not fearful of that reality. I'll figure out

704
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 6: a way to support my family. But I do think

705
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 6: at some point it stands to reason Jay that I

706
00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 6: I potentially could get canceled.

707
00:29:05,560 --> 00:29:07,280
Speaker 3: Oh I've been trying to protect you from doing that

708
00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:08,440
Speaker 3: for twenty years.

709
00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,560
Speaker 7: I got your back, bro, I know you do.

710
00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:12,160

Speaker 2: watch party. What's going on at your house while these

728
00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:07,120
Speaker 2: fights are going on? Like, do you have a set

729
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 2: up there in studio where you can watch the fights.

730
00:30:09,960 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 2: So I have a pretty nice setup here. I could

731
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 2: definitely watch the fights here. I got a sick monitor,

732
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 2: I got a TV, I got the works. But I

733
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 2: just bought a new couch probably a month ago, and that.

734
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,200
Speaker 7: Thing is boys.

735
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:24,800
Speaker 2: So I was on the couch watching the fights and

736
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 2: just gambling away, keeping tracks because I'm I'm a hard

737
00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,880
Speaker 2: paper guy. You know, I'm still an old man, so yeah,

738
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:33,680
Speaker 2: keeping track of everything. My daughters are all, you know,

739
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,560
Speaker 2: they need the same things I have. I have like folders.

740
00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:38,880
Speaker 2: They want folders. I have a little notebook. How to

741
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 2: get them a notebook? So it's really cute. But yeah,

742
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:42,800
Speaker 2: that's what it looks like on Saturday night from me.

743
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:43,959
Speaker 7: Dude's a pro.

744
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 3: Yeah all right, we're going.

745
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:48,040
Speaker 6: To get into the main event challenge here shortly, but quickly.

746
00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 6: A couple of pronunciation files for you folks. So you've

747
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,719
Speaker 6: heard us talk about Dupless for much of the telecast

748
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,280
Speaker 6: today and earlier this week, but on his audio file,

749
00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 6: I feel like he says his first name two different ways.

750
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 6: So first, I'm going to go to VP the middleweight

751
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:08,320
Speaker 6: title challenger taking on Sean Strickland this weekend. What do

752
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 6: you think his name is?

753
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,000
Speaker 2: So I've heard his name he pronounced a million times

754
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:13,680
Speaker 2: this week, and I've remembered it. I've kept it in

755
00:31:13,760 --> 00:31:14,240
Speaker 2: the chamber.

756
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:16,880
Speaker 6: The eye throws you off, but I believe it's Drais

757
00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 6: duplus c. So you nailed it, and and you sound

758
00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:23,280
Speaker 6: really good saying that South African name and sinati like.

759
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 6: I love the way you say due plus c. But yeah,

760
00:31:25,560 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 6: I go with Dracus on broadcast, and that's how we

761
00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 6: have gone throughout his UFC career. But some of my

762
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,240
Speaker 6: colleagues do say Dracus because when you listen to this file,

763
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:37,880
Speaker 6: it's open to interpretation. The Maesro Cody Marrow has the

764
00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:38,880
Speaker 6: file Cody takeaway.

765
00:31:39,480 --> 00:31:47,280
Speaker 3: Dracus still knocks duplus Dracus still knocks dupless. C Ken

766
00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:50,040
Speaker 3: Flow formerly employed as a linguist of sorts.

767
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,000
Speaker 7: What do you have for us? Yeah? It does. It

768
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 7: sounds like he's saying Dracus, Uh, Dracus Dupless all right?

769
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,000
Speaker 3: And then the other we have Jay, What do you have?

770
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 3: I got nothing? No, I just think I got to

771
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,520
Speaker 3: get the last name right. That's the real key. Yeah,

772
00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 3: du Pless is more important.

773
00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 7: Does he speak?

774
00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 3: Does he does?

775
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 7: He isn't?

776
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:11,960
Speaker 6: There is is English at his first language, so I

777
00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 6: can go into my fighter car library here. So Cameron right, no, no, no, okay, yeah,

778
00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,720
Speaker 6: Cameron Simon, the other South African athlete from that Morne

779
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:24,600
Speaker 6: Visser led team, he speaks the ship out.

780
00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 3: Of that native tongue. But I've never heard him.

781
00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 7: What is it, Kenny Afrikaans?

782
00:32:29,680 --> 00:32:32,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I looked it up because I could have

783
00:32:32,120 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 2: swore I heard his cornerman speak that to him in

784
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 2: one of his fights, strict as that is. And I

785
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 2: was like, well, because I'm so ignorant, I just thought

786
00:32:39,360 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 2: all South Africans spoke English. I didn't know there was

787
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:42,760
Speaker 2: a different language.

788
00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 6: All right, So yes, for sure, But I've heard Cameron Simon,

789
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 6: uh invoke that native tongue a lot more than Drake

790
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 6: is Duplessi. And then the other file we have Brian

791
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 6: and I don't know if you want to give this

792
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:56,760
Speaker 6: one a go, but Mom's story is fighting Arnold Allen

793
00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 6: in the pay per view Maine card opener. Care to

794
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:01,680
Speaker 6: take a game at mov Star's last name?

795
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, So I know he's gonna sound scary in Russia

796
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 2: when he says it, so I'm gonna try to do

797
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:08,720
Speaker 2: the same thing. So it's evil, liv.

798
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 3: Not not not bad. Cody can you rack that pig

799
00:33:14,680 --> 00:33:16,960
Speaker 3: for me, please, that's cada.

800
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,600
Speaker 7: Vet yoye.

801
00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 1: One more time, YoY.

802
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's he's got it all right.

803
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:34,320
Speaker 3: So you can either go evloyev. But what I go

804
00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,120
Speaker 3: with is eevloyev.

805
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:38,440
Speaker 6: So I go four syllables because that's what I hear

806
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 6: every time I listen to that file. I bring it

807
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,040
Speaker 6: to the audience today because that is actually the audio

808
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,160
Speaker 6: file that I have listened to more than any other

809
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:49,280
Speaker 6: fighter name in my twelve years too. So we go

810
00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:52,560
Speaker 6: movsar evloyev. Some of my colleagues say, evloyev. As long

811
00:33:52,600 --> 00:33:55,920
Speaker 6: as you're punctuating that second syllable or third syllable lloy,

812
00:33:56,440 --> 00:34:00,960
Speaker 6: you're okay. Main event Challenge presented by Raft Kings Fantasy Sports.

818
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:17,640
Speaker 6: I don't know if people ask you if you have

819
00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,560
Speaker 6: a gambling problem. People ask me all the time. Like, dude, Well,

820
00:34:20,600 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 6: they tell me I have a gambling problem, they don't

821
00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:24,919
Speaker 6: ask me. I say, it's a fucking solution. It's actually

822
00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,759
Speaker 6: not a problem, gambling solution. But you got people who

823
00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:30,239
Speaker 6: are like dude, like easy on the gambling. You got

824
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:33,000
Speaker 6: to deal with that in your life. My mother's always

825
00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:33,640
Speaker 6: worried about it.

826
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,160
Speaker 2: But no, I mean I only bet MMA. There was

827
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:37,800
Speaker 2: a time where I dab in the NFL because I

828
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:40,840
Speaker 2: love the NFL, but I strictly, my all focus is

829
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 2: on MMA now, so I don't touch, you know, And

830
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,600
Speaker 2: all my buddies at work like, hey, throw five bucks

831
00:34:45,640 --> 00:34:47,560
Speaker 2: on this NBA parlay, I'm like, I don't know, no,

832
00:34:48,040 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 2: because I feel like that's an educated for me. I'm

833
00:34:50,040 --> 00:34:52,040
Speaker 2: not just going to waste my money. So I think

834
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,279
Speaker 2: it's under control. But there is someone an addiction to

835
00:34:54,360 --> 00:34:58,120
Speaker 2: the MMA. I'll be chasing some crazy stuff on Saturday nights,

836
00:34:58,160 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 2: for sure, but I have a focus on one sport

837
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:01,480
Speaker 2: at least.

838
00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:03,320
Speaker 3: Winter's tough for me.

839
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,120
Speaker 6: I hit on the NHL pretty consistently, and I give

840
00:35:06,160 --> 00:35:08,880
Speaker 6: it all back on the NBA. So all right, So

841
00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 6: the new rules, if you don't know, for our twenty

842
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 6: twenty four main event, challenge. The fellas will still give

843
00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 6: you predictions on most, if not all, main card fights,

844
00:35:16,760 --> 00:35:19,400
Speaker 6: but now they get a weekly one thousand dollars budget

845
00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:24,080
Speaker 6: to spend. Now, in terms of the knockout and submission propositions, Brian,

846
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,200
Speaker 6: I do understand that depending on when we tape, some

847
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:27,880
Speaker 6: of those numbers are not available.

848
00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 3: So I am going to open it up to that.

849
00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:33,040
Speaker 6: Okay, not necessarily for this week, because I didn't get

850
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 6: any notice, but if you do want to go knockout

851
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,800
Speaker 6: submission props and you don't have the number available, you

852
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,279
Speaker 6: can still throw those out there and I will get

853
00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,200
Speaker 6: the number later in the week. But let us show you,

854
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,880
Speaker 6: or at least tell you, how these guys fared for

855
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,520
Speaker 6: the first live event of twenty twenty four. So Brian

856
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:49,840
Speaker 6: Petrie undefeated on the night, one hundred dollars on Bruno

857
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:52,920
Speaker 6: Fajeda at minus one eighteen. That wager paid eighty four

858
00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:56,640
Speaker 6: to seventy five, two hundred on Mario Bautista at plus

859
00:35:56,760 --> 00:35:59,360
Speaker 6: one forty five, so that paid you two hundred and

860
00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:01,640
Speaker 6: ninety dollars, and of course he had seven hundred the

861
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,279
Speaker 6: bulk of your meat on Manel cop no action on

862
00:36:04,400 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 6: that fight, but a good week for you two and

863
00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,160
Speaker 6: zero plus three hundred and seventy four dollars and seventy

864
00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:12,279
Speaker 6: five cents after week one and then Ken flow one

865
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 6: hundred dollars bet on Jim Miller at minus one twenty

866
00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,439
Speaker 6: that pays out eighty three dollars and thirty three cents.

867
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,759
Speaker 6: Then he had seven hundred dollars on Maga mat Anklieb

868
00:36:20,120 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 6: he was minus four fifty five though, so that wager

869
00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,239
Speaker 6: pays you one hundred and fifty three dollars and eighty

870
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,600
Speaker 6: five cents. And then you had a waygro menel cop

871
00:36:27,640 --> 00:36:29,760
Speaker 6: as well. No action there with your remaining two hundred,

872
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,120
Speaker 6: So Kenny also in the black plus two hundred and

873
00:36:33,320 --> 00:36:36,279
Speaker 6: thirty seven dollars and eighteen cents, you both go a

874
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:39,520
Speaker 6: combined four. And oh we also acknowledge Ronnie Pellegrino Big

875
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:43,440
Speaker 6: Ron bets handling the Anakin Florian podcast parlay on DraftKings

876
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:46,799
Speaker 6: sportsbook through twenty twenty four. He hit his first three

877
00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 6: legger this weekend, so congrats to Big Ron and all

878
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,600
Speaker 6: who tailed him in the book. All right, UFC two

879
00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,200
Speaker 6: ninety seven Strickland versus du plus C Scotiabank Arena this Saturday.

880
00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,399
Speaker 6: First fight for us to break down. Briy featherweight till

881
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 6: Geral Jordayane who is minus one ninety and Sean the

882
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:05,480
Speaker 6: Sniper Woodson, who is plus one forty five. Thirteenth UFC

883
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,640
Speaker 6: appearance with the twenty eight year old Qubec naive Charles Jordaane,

884
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:11,239
Speaker 6: but he has not fought in his native Canada since

885
00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,839
Speaker 6: twenty nineteen, and that was outside the UFC, so big

886
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:17,879
Speaker 6: spot for him here against the ever evolving Sean Woodson. Briy,

887
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:18,799
Speaker 6: what do you make of this one?

888
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:20,160
Speaker 7: I love this fight.

889
00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:22,520
Speaker 2: This is gonna be a scrap boys. I mean, listen,

890
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 2: Sean Woodson's listed at six to two. I don't believe it.

891
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:26,920
Speaker 2: I think he's seven eight. You see his legs in

892
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 2: those arms. That guy's way taller than he's listed. I

893
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,160
Speaker 2: saw him fight live against Dennis Wazok in Nashville. He

894
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,000
Speaker 2: kept his range and distance really well with Zuke. Had

895
00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 2: moments in when he got in the range, but he

896
00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:40,719
Speaker 2: just kept going for takedowns. I know a Zouke took

897
00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 2: that on like twenty four hours in this or whatever,

898
00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,360
Speaker 2: but Woodson looked pretty good before that. He looked very hittable.

899
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 2: He had been dropped multiple times. He landed four takedowns

900
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 2: himself against Azuke Yet to Charles Jordando, I think this kid,

901
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,600
Speaker 2: especially he's in his twenties, still good striker, powerful. He

902
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 2: does give up a lot of takedowns at times, and

903
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,480
Speaker 2: he's been that's been his achilles heel. He gives up takedowns. However,

904
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:05,319
Speaker 2: jiu jitsu's pretty good. I don't worry about Woodson's jiu

905
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 2: jitsu as much as I would worry about maybe Woodson

906
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:09,719
Speaker 2: getting his neck taken by Jordan. But I think this

907
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,680
Speaker 2: is gonna play on the feet. I think Jordaane is

908
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:13,400
Speaker 2: going to take a little bit to find the range,

909
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 2: find the distance against his seven footer, and I like

910
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 2: Jordaane here.

911
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:17,360
Speaker 3: I like Jordan.

912
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:20,480
Speaker 2: The number doesn't scare me. Give me Charles Dana Canadian

913
00:38:20,920 --> 00:38:23,960
Speaker 2: Nada starting off right here, let's go Charles Rdam.

914
00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 6: Camflow, Charles Jordaine minus one ninety right now on DraftKings

915
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,200
Speaker 6: sportsbook and they say pressures of privilege.

916
00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:31,759
Speaker 3: This guy rises to it right.

917
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 6: The Crone Gracie challenge I thought he handled exceedingly well,

918
00:38:35,120 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 6: so I don't expect the Canadian noise to be too

919
00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:37,879
Speaker 6: much for him.

920
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,800
Speaker 3: Woodson, though, is a different prick.

921
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,640
Speaker 6: Than he was earlier in his UFC career, showed off

922
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 6: some new wrinkles to his game, of course, in the

923
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:45,719
Speaker 6: win over Dennis Bizuki. Campflow loves that word prick. He

924
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:50,000
Speaker 6: usually proceeds a nasty prick. But what are your thoughts

925
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:52,000
Speaker 6: on Jordayane here? About two to one agains Sean Woodson.

926
00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,000
Speaker 4: Dude, this is a very interesting fight. I think Jordaane

927
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 4: more than anything else. So it's a very different fighter

928
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 4: than we saw early on. I think he was really

929
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 4: a bad out trying to entertain and bring a fight

930
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 4: and all that stuff. Then he realized, oh wait, I'm

931
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,879
Speaker 4: a professional athlete. I actually need to win here, consistently,

932
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 4: make money and move my way up the ladder. And

933
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:13,799
Speaker 4: now that he's on that track, I have a lot

934
00:39:13,960 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 4: more confidence in him. He's fought so much smarter the

935
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:20,400
Speaker 4: last few fights, and I think he'll continue on that trend.

936
00:39:20,480 --> 00:39:23,960
Speaker 4: He's going to need that against someone like Sean Sean Woodson,

937
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:27,080
Speaker 4: who is very tall and lanky and knows how to

938
00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:27,480
Speaker 4: use it.

939
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,040
Speaker 7: I think there are times where I look at what'son

940
00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:30,760
Speaker 7: I go, man.

941
00:39:30,680 --> 00:39:34,560
Speaker 4: This guy is a devastating striker, very potent, but then

942
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 4: there's certain times where I feel like he drops off

943
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:39,080
Speaker 4: and either lose his focus or isn't able to kind

944
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 4: of recalibrate. That can be a concern. I think Jordaane

945
00:39:43,640 --> 00:39:46,239
Speaker 4: will have the advantage on the ground. I think if

946
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,759
Speaker 4: Jordaane is able to get on the inside, I think

947
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:50,239
Speaker 4: he'll have the advantage there.

948
00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 7: So I just think there's a little bit more ways

949
00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 7: to win for Jordaane. Am I gonna touch this? Am

950
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,200
Speaker 7: I gonna put some of my thousand dollars this week

951
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,960
Speaker 7: on either of those guys? Negative.

952
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 4: I'm gonna stay away from that one as of right now,

953
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,359
Speaker 4: because I do think Woodson's capable of winning that one

954
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:04,839
Speaker 4: as well.

955
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:09,080
Speaker 7: But I am leaning towards Jordaane like Peprie, So not

956
00:40:09,200 --> 00:40:12,000
Speaker 7: gonna bet it, But great fight, all right.

957
00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 6: Jordaane on the cusp of the top fifteen. Perhaps he'll

958
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 6: be ranked if he can get by the ten and

959
00:40:16,520 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 6: one Sean Woodson Well I feature pree lim a UFC

960
00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 6: two ninety seven comes your way. In the men's bantamweight division.

961
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,680
Speaker 6: Two time Ultimate Fighter winner Brad Katona minus one ninety eight.

962
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 6: Garrett Armfield is plus one sixty four Armfield reps Marathon MMA.

963
00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:31,960
Speaker 6: He's twenty seven years of age and Ryan coming off

964
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 6: his first UFC win last August. Now he draws Winnipeg's

965
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 6: Brad Katona on the road. Your thoughts here, VP on

966
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 6: the thirty five ers.

967
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,800
Speaker 2: I think this is a slam knunk, moral lock. You

968
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,680
Speaker 2: gotta throw a bag on Bradntona. This guy I don't

969
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:48,839
Speaker 2: think should have been cut from the UFC. He's won

970
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 2: the Ultimate Fighter twice. He gets a little shit. He's

971
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 2: kind of got a weird ACX in this Canadian is iris.

972
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,799
Speaker 2: It's something, it's whatever. He needs a finish the UFC.

973
00:40:56,880 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 2: The Cody Gibson fight was an amazing fight. He showed

974
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:02,359
Speaker 2: chin as Cardio sude rufus grappling's great Garrettarfield. A lot

975
00:41:02,400 --> 00:41:05,560
Speaker 2: of his losses have come by submission. Radkatona in this

976
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 2: in front of this Canadian crowd, with the fact that

977
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:11,319
Speaker 2: he is getting labeled boring or decision fight there, He's

978
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,320
Speaker 2: gonna go out there. He's gonna hunt for submission. I

979
00:41:13,480 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 2: like Katona. By submission, you could put a thousand bucks

980
00:41:16,160 --> 00:41:18,400
Speaker 2: just on Brackatona. I'm not gonna do that right now.

981
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:20,759
Speaker 2: I'm gonna spread my money out with you know we're

982
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,600
Speaker 2: doing at the end of the segment, right John, we'rena

983
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,960
Speaker 2: spread the money, Okay, So I'm gonna wait. But I

984
00:41:25,080 --> 00:41:27,439
Speaker 2: think it's you know, I think this numbers way too low.

985
00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 2: I would play Brackntona up to minus three hundred in

986
00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 2: this spot. I like him that much.

987
00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:35,759
Speaker 6: I don't know a lot about Garrett Armfield. I'll know

988
00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:37,560
Speaker 6: a shit ton about him when I crack a mic

989
00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 6: on Saturday Night. On the other side, though, Kenny brad

990
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,400
Speaker 6: Katona win season twenty seven of The Ultimate Fighter, then

991
00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,520
Speaker 6: recently season thirty one of The Way he did it

992
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,839
Speaker 6: last August in Boston at UFC two ninety two. Brian

993
00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 6: referenced it against Cody Gibson has fans like me pretty

994
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,719
Speaker 6: intrigued about his future. He's about two to one here

995
00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:56,040
Speaker 6: against Garrett Armfield at home.

996
00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:59,479
Speaker 4: Your thoughts, Yeah, absolutely certainly gained a lot more fans

997
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 4: from his life fight. I think he's a very good fighter.

998
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 4: I couldn't agree more with Brian Petrie. I think he

999
00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 4: should have stayed in the UFC all along. In the end,

1000
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:10,160
Speaker 4: it kind of helped to kind of build up a

1001
00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:12,759
Speaker 4: new fan base in some ways. So I think he

1002
00:42:12,920 --> 00:42:16,880
Speaker 4: benefited it from that. I think he's a fantastic fighter

1003
00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 4: in all areas. I think he's dangerous. I think he

1004
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:24,719
Speaker 4: has Armfield's number here, and you know Armfield. I think

1005
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 4: while he has had some submission wins, I think he's

1006
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 4: susceptible to the submission as well. And I think Katona

1007
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:34,200
Speaker 4: is just gonna be a little bit sharper there. So

1008
00:42:34,920 --> 00:42:35,799
Speaker 4: I like Katone here.

1009
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:38,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, Armfield can crack, there's no doubt about it, but

1010
00:42:38,960 --> 00:42:41,759
Speaker 6: he is the betting underdog. This weekend all right pay

1011
00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:44,080
Speaker 6: per view main card opener featuring two of the top

1012
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,520
Speaker 6: featherweights in the world. He seventeen and O mob Sorry

1013
00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 6: I of Looiev is minus one eighty Arnold Allen plus

1014
00:42:49,400 --> 00:42:52,680
Speaker 6: one fifty. So these guys were born twenty days apart,

1015
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,680
Speaker 6: back in the winter of nineteen ninety four. I have

1016
00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,640
Speaker 6: Looyev trains out of American top team. Certainly was tested

1017
00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:01,000
Speaker 6: last May Brian and went over Diego Lopez. He's now

1018
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,280
Speaker 6: had nearly eight months since to further work on his skills.

1019
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,680
Speaker 6: Arnold Allen making his UFC debut all the way back

1020
00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 6: in twenty fifteen, but in his first nine years on

1021
00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 6: the roster Allen competed just once a year in seven

1022
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,080
Speaker 6: of those nine years, so he hasn't always had the

1023
00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:17,319
Speaker 6: traction of the other contenders. He's coming off of main

1024
00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:19,359
Speaker 6: event loss to Max Holloway that was all the way

1025
00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 6: back in April of twenty twenty three, huge fight to

1026
00:43:22,280 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 6: kick off the pay per view Bri you going iv

1027
00:43:24,320 --> 00:43:26,879
Speaker 6: Loyev the favorite or Arnold Allen the dog?

1028
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:28,640
Speaker 2: I love this so I think this is gonna be

1029
00:43:28,640 --> 00:43:30,360
Speaker 2: a scrap This could be interesting. There's a lot of

1030
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 2: questions that need to be answered on ar A Allen.

1031
00:43:32,600 --> 00:43:34,879
Speaker 2: We haven't really seen him fight a dominant grappler since

1032
00:43:34,920 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 2: Maz Burrell back in the day where he was losing

1033
00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:41,719
Speaker 2: until he pulled out that submission and Evil have is

1034
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 2: just an absolute fucking stud I mean, this guy lands

1035
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:48,480
Speaker 2: nine takedowns on average a fight the Diego lopezie. We

1036
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,480
Speaker 2: all see how great Diego Lopez is and the way

1037
00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,239
Speaker 2: he handled them short notice or not. That's impressive. Not

1038
00:43:53,320 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 2: a lot of people want to fight this guy. This

1039
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 2: guy is is making some traction. He's a little bit

1040
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,759
Speaker 2: more finishes I think for people to really start talking

1041
00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:00,400
Speaker 2: to him.

1042
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 7: But he's not good.

1043
00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,520
Speaker 2: He's under the radar. And I feel like some people

1044
00:44:03,600 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 2: think I'm a little predictable, right, They're like, Oh, this

1045
00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 2: is the underdog shot BP's gonna take. He's gonna go on, Allen,

1046
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 2: this isn't his wheelhouse, And you're right. Earlier this week,

1047
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 2: I was all over on an island. But I'm uncomfortable

1048
00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 2: with ewel F. But in gambling, you have to be uncomfortable.

1049
00:44:22,120 --> 00:44:22,840
Speaker 2: Be comfortable.

1050
00:44:23,239 --> 00:44:24,120
Speaker 3: Give me Mosar.

1051
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:27,719
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna outgrapple me. Or I think he's

1052
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,279
Speaker 2: gonna be a scrap. Arn Allen's looking juicy at the

1053
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,839
Speaker 2: plus number, but I'm gonna take the Russian in this one.

1054
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:35,879
Speaker 6: Can flow mobstor you have voye of minus one eighty

1055
00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 6: Arnold Allen is plus one fifty. Allen returning for the

1056
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,960
Speaker 6: first time since that main event against Max Holloway nearly

1057
00:44:42,040 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 6: nine months ago. So a lot of preparation time on

1058
00:44:44,360 --> 00:44:47,400
Speaker 6: both sides and real quick in terms of Diego Lopez, right,

1059
00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 6: Josh Emmett last December, Hey, you want to fight Diego

1060
00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,719
Speaker 6: Lopez or Bryce Mitchell probably made the right call in

1061
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,920
Speaker 6: avoiding Diego Lopez so to speak. Ken Flow, huge fight

1062
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,359
Speaker 6: here at featherweight. Which way you're going?

1063
00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, listen, and I think you know, for me, I

1064
00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:04,879
Speaker 4: was pretty high on Ivloyev after I saw him fight

1065
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 4: Diego Lopez. Now, of course we know that Diego Lopez

1066
00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,400
Speaker 4: is absolutely a an excellent.

1067
00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 7: Fighter, but he was in he was in some really

1068
00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:13,920
Speaker 7: tough spots.

1069
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 3: Man.

1070
00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,240
Speaker 4: He was in a few submissions that looked like Lopez

1071
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 4: was going to finish. I also thought that he showed

1072
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:24,680
Speaker 4: a certain vulnerability on the feet that I'm not sure

1073
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 4: it was as apparent prior to that fight as it was.

1074
00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,040
Speaker 4: So he's an excellent grappler. He can go out there

1075
00:45:32,560 --> 00:45:35,120
Speaker 4: and take a lot of guys down in that division,

1076
00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:38,239
Speaker 4: control them, land ground and pound, and win every single

1077
00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:43,840
Speaker 4: round against a lot of guys in that very dangerous division. However,

1078
00:45:44,080 --> 00:45:47,520
Speaker 4: I think Arnold Allen has faced tougher competition at this

1079
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,720
Speaker 4: stand At this standpoint, I think that he is certainly

1080
00:45:50,800 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 4: going to be a threat when it comes to exchanging

1081
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,239
Speaker 4: on the feat. I think that Alan may have some

1082
00:45:56,360 --> 00:45:58,759
Speaker 4: trouble in the wrestling department a little bit, but I

1083
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,279
Speaker 4: think if he's able to capitalized when he is on

1084
00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:04,080
Speaker 4: his feet, if he's able to tire out Ifloya not

1085
00:46:04,200 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 4: an easy thing to do, I kind of like his

1086
00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:10,320
Speaker 4: chances here, no doubt. Ifloyev is the favorite for good reason,

1087
00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,520
Speaker 4: I think that's the easy choice. But I think I

1088
00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,080
Speaker 4: think there's juicy enough odds here for Arnold Allen to

1089
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,759
Speaker 4: go that route. So I'm actually gonna go the other way.

1090
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:25,759
Speaker 4: I'm going with the underdog here, and I'm not playing

1091
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 4: it safe. I got some extra cash from last week,

1092
00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,720
Speaker 4: not as much as Petrie, not as much as Petrie,

1093
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:32,200
Speaker 4: but I'm gonna I'm gonna put some. I'll put some

1094
00:46:32,360 --> 00:46:32,759
Speaker 4: on Allen.

1095
00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,719
Speaker 3: I think I will save that for the end of

1096
00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:35,080
Speaker 3: the show.

1097
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,040
Speaker 6: I will just say this is the biggest fight of

1098
00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:40,319
Speaker 6: Arnold Allen's career, in large part because it's the next one.

1099
00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 6: Certainly a main eventage against Max Holly doesn't get any

1100
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,239
Speaker 6: bigger than that. But now, can't lose two in a

1101
00:46:46,320 --> 00:46:48,120
Speaker 6: row if you're gonna become a world champion, especially one

1102
00:46:48,239 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 6: hundred and forty five pounds, So gotta be this weekend

1103
00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 6: if you're Arnold Almighty Allen all right at middleweight, the

1104
00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:57,480
Speaker 6: King of Combat bry Chris Curtis, your longtime friend monus

1105
00:46:57,560 --> 00:47:01,399
Speaker 6: one five against Mark andre Ban, who's plus one forty five,

1106
00:47:02,360 --> 00:47:05,759
Speaker 6: just going to be a huge, huge night for this

1107
00:47:05,920 --> 00:47:08,719
Speaker 6: division and year for this middleweight division. Now it was

1108
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,480
Speaker 6: a winless twenty twenty three for your guy, Chris Curtis,

1109
00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:14,720
Speaker 6: your thoughts on him here against Power bar Mark, Andre

1110
00:47:14,840 --> 00:47:16,160
Speaker 6: Barrio Bray, so I.

1111
00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,080
Speaker 2: Get labeled as bias towards Chris and of course Sam Listen,

1112
00:47:19,160 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 2: Kenny knows this. If you'll punch someone in the face

1113
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:22,759
Speaker 2: and you get punched by someone in the face over

1114
00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:24,800
Speaker 2: one hundred times, it creates a bond.

1115
00:47:24,920 --> 00:47:26,319
Speaker 3: Okay, I love Chris.

1116
00:47:26,840 --> 00:47:28,840
Speaker 2: I've spoken to him a little bit, you know, gradulations,

1117
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 2: having a kid, he's a father for the second time now,

1118
00:47:31,920 --> 00:47:34,200
Speaker 2: and he's off social media. You know, people are getting

1119
00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,239
Speaker 2: under the skin a little bit. People were calling him

1120
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,480
Speaker 2: names or getting off Twitter. But he's dialed in. He's

1121
00:47:39,600 --> 00:47:42,359
Speaker 2: leaner than I've ever seen him. He's in the Champ

1122
00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 2: camp with Strictly side by side and he's getting good

1123
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,879
Speaker 2: rounds in and he finally took the much needed time off.

1124
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 2: This guy. The minute he would win lose whatever. He's

1125
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:55,240
Speaker 2: back in the gym working knits. He finally forced himself

1126
00:47:55,320 --> 00:47:57,719
Speaker 2: to remove himself from the gym for at least a

1127
00:47:57,760 --> 00:47:59,839
Speaker 2: couple of weeks get refreshed, get in there he's been

1128
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:02,479
Speaker 2: doing listened to he's twenty years old, and I feel

1129
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,239
Speaker 2: like that's gonna be good and that's what he needs

1130
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,520
Speaker 2: because I love Mark Andrew Barrio. I know this is

1131
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 2: John's guy. He trains with John Squad down there, and

1132
00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:13,000
Speaker 2: since his move to Florida, it has been a different fighter.

1133
00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:18,320
Speaker 2: He was averaging landing forty three strikes a fight before Florida.

1134
00:48:18,480 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 2: Now he's over one hundred landing his Cardio sew the roof.

1135
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,600
Speaker 2: He's never gonna be a big takedown machine. But his

1136
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 2: powers there is Boxing's there. He has more weapons on

1137
00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,160
Speaker 2: the feet than Chris Curtis does. He has better kicks,

1138
00:48:30,239 --> 00:48:33,320
Speaker 2: He's better than the clinch. Chris has that boxing and

1139
00:48:33,440 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 2: he used to make really he used to have really

1140
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:37,640
Speaker 2: good footwork. He didn't have a ton of knockouts coming

1141
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:40,000
Speaker 2: into UFC. Prior to that, he would wear guys down

1142
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:42,279
Speaker 2: and get him in the third, fourth, fifth round body

1143
00:48:42,320 --> 00:48:43,920
Speaker 2: shots take him over. That's not gonna happen in the

1144
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,680
Speaker 2: third round fight against Barrio. Cardio too good. So Chris

1145
00:48:46,800 --> 00:48:49,040
Speaker 2: needs to get on his bicycle game. Quit being flat footed,

1146
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,279
Speaker 2: trying to find those power shots like he's been doing.

1147
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 2: Start moving your feet again. I love to see him

1148
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:55,440
Speaker 2: throw some kicks. Don't know if that's in his DNA.

1149
00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,240
Speaker 2: This is gonna be an absolute scrap. I was wondering

1150
00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:01,319
Speaker 2: why Chris was so high at minus on seventy five.

1151
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:03,719
Speaker 2: But if you look at the resumes, Chrismas fault a

1152
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 2: lot of people. He's got some impressive scalls on his resume.

1153
00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:10,840
Speaker 2: Brandon Allen Willkem Buckley. But Chriss needs to be active,

1154
00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:13,000
Speaker 2: he needs to throw his hands. This is gonna be

1155
00:49:13,000 --> 00:49:14,680
Speaker 2: a firefight. I think this will be fire the night.

1156
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 2: I wish I could bet on that. I think this

1157
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:18,719
Speaker 2: will be fight. Obviously, I'm going Chris Curtis. That's a

1158
00:49:18,800 --> 00:49:20,440
Speaker 2: long win to say. I'm gonna go Chris, but I'm

1159
00:49:20,520 --> 00:49:22,080
Speaker 2: very nervous about it. I'm gonna stop talking.

1160
00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:24,960
Speaker 6: I do like the Champ camp angle though, him and

1161
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 6: Seawan Strickland Vian side by side in preparation for these fights.

1162
00:49:28,600 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 6: I think that is something that could It stands to

1163
00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:34,319
Speaker 6: reason forge both individuals. Kem Flow on the Mark Andre

1164
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 6: Barrio side UFC career began in twenty nineteen, starts winless

1165
00:49:37,960 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 6: in his first four fights and could have been cut right.

1166
00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 6: He loses his first three, then he had a win

1167
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:45,560
Speaker 6: overturn to a no contest because of failed post fight

1168
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:49,040
Speaker 6: drug test. He's won five UFC fights since that time.

1169
00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:51,839
Speaker 6: Now he gets a high profile pay per view opportunity.

1170
00:49:52,080 --> 00:49:54,760
Speaker 6: Biggest discrepancy when I break these guys down to Brian's

1171
00:49:54,800 --> 00:49:57,960
Speaker 6: point is strength of schedule. But your thoughts on Barrio

1172
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:01,399
Speaker 6: here plus one forty five the dull against the soon

1173
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:03,279
Speaker 6: to be thirty seven year old Chris Curtis.

1174
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:04,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, no question about it.

1175
00:50:04,520 --> 00:50:08,720
Speaker 4: That Mark Andre Barrio is extremely dangerous, as is Chris Curtis,

1176
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,200
Speaker 4: especially when you talk about boxing range. I think both

1177
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,280
Speaker 4: of them are dangerous in that range. So I'm curious

1178
00:50:14,280 --> 00:50:17,080
Speaker 4: to see who has better defense in this fight. I

1179
00:50:17,160 --> 00:50:19,160
Speaker 4: think it may very well come down to that and

1180
00:50:19,239 --> 00:50:20,800
Speaker 4: who's able to execute.

1181
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:20,960
Speaker 7: When they need to.

1182
00:50:21,080 --> 00:50:23,520
Speaker 4: As far as their strategy and their approach to this one,

1183
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:27,520
Speaker 4: and Brian is spot on, I think that Chris Curtis

1184
00:50:27,640 --> 00:50:31,319
Speaker 4: has to throw more volume in this fight and has

1185
00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:34,840
Speaker 4: to do it by having better positioning. Sometimes he stays

1186
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 4: in that pocket, stays in that lane of strikes where

1187
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:40,480
Speaker 4: he opens himself up a little bit. Not sure you

1188
00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 4: want to be in there against someone like Mark Andre Barrio.

1189
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:46,480
Speaker 4: So I but you're right, Johnny. You know, if I'm

1190
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:48,120
Speaker 4: going to lead a certain way, I'm going to go

1191
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,279
Speaker 4: with the guy who has faced the tougher competition, and

1192
00:50:51,360 --> 00:50:53,399
Speaker 4: as of right now, it's pretty clear that that guy

1193
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:57,520
Speaker 4: has been Chris Curtis. So I'm leaning towards Curtis, And yeah,

1194
00:50:57,880 --> 00:50:59,920
Speaker 4: I think either way it's going to be an exciting fight.

1195
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right.

1196
00:51:01,560 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 6: Three to Go feature battle welterweight prop of Mike Malaw

1197
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:07,799
Speaker 6: minus three forty taking on Neil Magney, who is plus

1198
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 6: two seventy. So ma Lot was with us on the

1199
00:51:09,960 --> 00:51:12,319
Speaker 6: Anaicmploring podcast last week. You can check that out right

1200
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 6: here on the DraftKings YouTube channel. He couldn't have possibly

1201
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,800
Speaker 6: sounded better. He's three and zero in the UFC. Many expect,

1202
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:20,399
Speaker 6: Bride that he'll be heard from in a big way

1203
00:51:20,440 --> 00:51:23,480
Speaker 6: in twenty twenty four, beginning on this night, Saturday, but

1204
00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,120
Speaker 6: a big number next to his name against the guy

1205
00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 6: with more UFC welterweight wins than George Saint Pierre and

1206
00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,200
Speaker 6: everyone else, Malot or Magni for VP.

1207
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:33,920
Speaker 2: So I love Mike Malott. I do think he's the

1208
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 2: face of Canada. I think he is He's a good

1209
00:51:35,760 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 2: looking kid. He's exciting. You know, I just wish he

1210
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 2: would fight a little more like this kid's a fucking Adonis.

1211
00:51:40,960 --> 00:51:42,480
Speaker 2: By the way, you and Aaron Brons that are both

1212
00:51:42,520 --> 00:51:44,719
Speaker 2: of acknowledged his looks. I mean, Tyren Woodley is a

1213
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 2: better looking man than I mean, ty wood is a

1214
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:50,719
Speaker 2: good look guy, but you know he's not like on

1215
00:51:50,840 --> 00:51:53,919
Speaker 2: my top ten most handsome men in the really crack

1216
00:51:54,320 --> 00:52:00,200
Speaker 2: cracked my top ten. All day's all right because through

1217
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:02,160
Speaker 2: fat hopefully my lot doesn't come up to me this weekend.

1218
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:07,120
Speaker 6: He's saying, I'm fucking homelier than I got. Two heterosexual

1219
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:10,800
Speaker 6: men come on here today. How handsome Mike malat is.

1220
00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,640
Speaker 6: And I mean, I think there are even other welcherweights

1221
00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 6: that are more handsome with.

1222
00:52:14,680 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 2: Let me tell you a quick story, real quick. So

1223
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:19,440
Speaker 2: I was in New York years ago with my wife

1224
00:52:19,520 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 2: and we're in Washington Park and this little dogs are

1225
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:24,440
Speaker 2: smelling my wife's feet and I turned, I look like,

1226
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,800
Speaker 2: what's this little dog doing. Alec Baldwin is dog smelling

1227
00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:30,439
Speaker 2: my wife's feet and him and I lock eyes, goes, hey,

1228
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,840
Speaker 2: how are you? I swear to you, he looked like

1229
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:34,840
Speaker 2: a hobo. Right because he's trying to be He was

1230
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 2: the most handsome man I've ever seen my life, looking

1231
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 2: like a hobo. And you know out Ball in the

1232
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:42,640
Speaker 2: eighties was a stud. This is a couple of years ago,

1233
00:52:42,640 --> 00:52:45,319
Speaker 2: a Baldwin. I couldn't believe it. He knocked my socks off.

1234
00:52:45,400 --> 00:52:47,239
Speaker 2: But I do think Mike Mallatt is in the top ten.

1235
00:52:47,440 --> 00:52:49,840
Speaker 2: Tyler Willy is a very good fighter, excuse me, a

1236
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 2: very good looking guy. He obviously gets chicks and we

1237
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,240
Speaker 2: always seen in the video he's doing pretty well for himself.

1238
00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:56,759
Speaker 2: But I do think my lot's a good looking guy.

1239
00:52:57,760 --> 00:52:59,400
Speaker 2: Am I still breaking down anyway?

1240
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:01,960
Speaker 3: Magni?

1241
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:06,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I like malt I think he's the face

1242
00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:09,160
Speaker 2: of Canada. I think he's exciting and thank you for

1243
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 2: coming on the show. Mike Mallotta on the ink and

1244
00:53:11,080 --> 00:53:14,240
Speaker 2: floor and you're you're great guy that always boost fighters.

1245
00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:19,160
Speaker 2: They always win, But oh Canada, I'm going against you.

1246
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:23,680
Speaker 7: Neil Magni just has a way to make fights ugly.

1247
00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:26,719
Speaker 2: We've seen the I and Gary fight. He just knows

1248
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,640
Speaker 2: how to slow people down. And I don't know if

1249
00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,960
Speaker 2: I trust Mike Mallott's three round cardio. He hasn't been

1250
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,320
Speaker 2: to the third round a while Neil Magne is a

1251
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,919
Speaker 2: dog in there. He could get overwhelmed in the first

1252
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:40,720
Speaker 2: round and Mike Malat could be waving the Canadian flag

1253
00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,759
Speaker 2: all over my dead body, and that is acceptable. But

1254
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:46,640
Speaker 2: Neil Magnie is just one of these guys. You're hanging

1255
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:49,399
Speaker 2: a number like that on me against his vet. I'm

1256
00:53:49,400 --> 00:53:51,680
Speaker 2: gonna go Neil Magni here. Sorry, Mike Mallott, You're a

1257
00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:54,600
Speaker 2: great guy, and if you win, you can stop all

1258
00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:55,360
Speaker 2: over my corpse.

1259
00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:56,279
Speaker 3: But I gotta go.

1260
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:57,400
Speaker 2: I gotta go Neil Magni.

1261
00:53:58,280 --> 00:54:01,560
Speaker 6: Nicely done, bro I can flow. The word gatekeeper and

1262
00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,840
Speaker 6: mixed martial arts has a lot of negative connotations, but

1263
00:54:05,560 --> 00:54:08,640
Speaker 6: Neil Magni has become this division's gatekeeper. You don't hear

1264
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:11,520
Speaker 6: me say that a lot because it's somewhat insulting. But

1265
00:54:12,480 --> 00:54:15,359
Speaker 6: in order to get to that requisite next level top ten,

1266
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:18,000
Speaker 6: you usually have to beat Magni, and everyone fucking calls

1267
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 6: him out, which suggests that they think he's beatable. He

1268
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,319
Speaker 6: went one in two in twenty twenty three. Loan win

1269
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:26,000
Speaker 6: came by split over Phil Row. He's making his thirty

1270
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 6: second UFC appearance here, and he does so against the

1271
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 6: heavily favored Mike Malot can flow any thoughts on this one. Yeah,

1272
00:54:32,520 --> 00:54:34,600
Speaker 6: I think for better or worse, you know, Neil Magni

1273
00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:37,960
Speaker 6: has established himself as kind of that measuring stick in

1274
00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:42,000
Speaker 6: the welchweight division. You get by him, it means, I think,

1275
00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 6: for the most part, that you're elite or can't be

1276
00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:48,120
Speaker 6: elite in that division. So I think it's also, you know,

1277
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 6: in some ways, a respect a respectable position to be in,

1278
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:56,680
Speaker 6: right because you are that gatekeeper. And think I don't

1279
00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,359
Speaker 6: think there's anything wrong with that, and I think Neil

1280
00:54:58,360 --> 00:55:01,520
Speaker 6: Magni can pose a lot of problems for people. I also,

1281
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:03,520
Speaker 6: for the record, I want to say that if this

1282
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,440
Speaker 6: podcast goes under and we lose ninety percent of our audience,

1283
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 6: which is no doubt male, it's gonna be John Anick,

1284
00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:12,919
Speaker 6: Brian Petrie, and Aaron Bronstadter's fault.

1285
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 7: Okay. So I want to know part of this.

1286
00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:18,560
Speaker 4: Jason, you're here, Cody, you're here, You're witnessing this conversation.

1287
00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 4: It's going to be their fault, Okay, So I'll listen.

1288
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:24,479
Speaker 4: I think I think this is a really fascinating fight,

1289
00:55:24,719 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 4: and I think what has me nervous is the length

1290
00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,680
Speaker 4: and the jab of Magni, and like Brian said, he

1291
00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,680
Speaker 4: does have a knack for making some people look at

1292
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:37,840
Speaker 4: And if you take Neil Magni easy, right, If you

1293
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,000
Speaker 4: underestimate this dude, you're going to be in.

1294
00:55:40,080 --> 00:55:42,000
Speaker 7: For a long night. He can make you look bad.

1295
00:55:42,360 --> 00:55:46,160
Speaker 4: However, just hearing Mike Malott talk about the fight, talk

1296
00:55:46,200 --> 00:55:49,760
Speaker 4: about his preparation, how we see things from a mental perspective,

1297
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:52,120
Speaker 4: physical perspective, what he's been working on, I think that

1298
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:54,399
Speaker 4: was really helpful for me because this is a very

1299
00:55:55,040 --> 00:55:59,480
Speaker 4: serious professional who understands the opportunity that's in front of

1300
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:03,080
Speaker 4: him here. I don't see him taking Magne lightly and

1301
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,960
Speaker 4: but if he doesn't have an answer to that job,

1302
00:56:06,239 --> 00:56:08,640
Speaker 4: this is going to be Magni's night. However, I think

1303
00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:11,839
Speaker 4: me Lot has enough experience at this standpoint to get

1304
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,560
Speaker 4: around it, to get on the inside lance shots, maybe

1305
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:16,840
Speaker 4: hit some takedowns and take advantage of some positions on

1306
00:56:16,960 --> 00:56:18,920
Speaker 4: the ground. I think he's the better grappler. I think

1307
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:22,080
Speaker 4: overall he's the better striker, just needs an answer to

1308
00:56:22,200 --> 00:56:24,120
Speaker 4: that job. I think we'll find out early if he

1309
00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,240
Speaker 4: does have that answer. So I'm leaning towards Malot here guys.

1310
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:28,560
Speaker 3: All right, well done kidd.

1311
00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,280
Speaker 6: That segues us to the comin event for the undisputed

1312
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:35,319
Speaker 6: UFC Women's vandamweight title, which is vacant at present. Might

1313
00:56:35,440 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 6: a Bueno Silva minus one seventy were Kel Pennington plus

1314
00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:38,799
Speaker 6: one forty two?

1315
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 3: Little backdrop for you.

1316
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,399
Speaker 6: Bueno Silva had a main event win against Holly Holm

1317
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 6: overturned back in July she tested positive for adderall. I

1318
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,319
Speaker 6: believe it was after the fight. You got the extra

1319
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 6: let me know, but the yesc stuck by the now

1320
00:56:53,840 --> 00:56:56,600
Speaker 6: title contender. That would have been her fourth straight win

1321
00:56:56,719 --> 00:56:59,600
Speaker 6: and now the meanest Jedis native gets her first championship

1322
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:03,359
Speaker 6: opportunity in the UFC. Brian Petrie Woodya love.

1323
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:06,240
Speaker 2: We all want to join a painting in this spot. Joinian,

1324
00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:08,879
Speaker 2: Opinia and Silver are talking that good ship with each other.

1325
00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:11,600
Speaker 2: We all wanted it. Painion is out, Pennington coming in

1326
00:57:11,760 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 2: og been around for a while, right. I can't get

1327
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 2: over the fact that she kind of quit in the

1328
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,040
Speaker 2: New Nest fight. We all saw the corner work. She

1329
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,080
Speaker 2: lost her second fight after that, we thought she was done,

1330
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:23,160
Speaker 2: but she's came back. She's had a second life.

1331
00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 7: Now.

1332
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,280
Speaker 2: She looked fantastic, she look great. Hasn't been submitted in

1333
00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 2: the UFC, which is what Silva wants to do. She

1334
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 2: wants to submitches, she wants sticking down, she wants to Submitch.

1335
00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:32,680
Speaker 2: She's got a good standing guillotine, asked Collie Holm. You know,

1336
00:57:32,720 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 2: I know that got to return, but and I like Silva.

1337
00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:39,440
Speaker 2: We need new Nest was like the really sweet badass

1338
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:41,919
Speaker 2: who could turn it on. Silva is talking that ship

1339
00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 2: standing up in the crowd, like I love that.

1340
00:57:44,680 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 3: She's mean.

1341
00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:47,320
Speaker 2: She's mean, She's a bad bitch in there, and I

1342
00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:49,920
Speaker 2: love that about her. And her striking is coming a

1343
00:57:49,960 --> 00:57:52,520
Speaker 2: long way. The volumes coming a long way. She's getting better.

1344
00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 2: And you know people when when when there's a female fight,

1345
00:57:56,600 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 2: they looked through old BP because BP noes checks.

1346
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:02,160
Speaker 5: I got a little I'm talking like you no chicks,

1347
00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 5: and I am the one who knows chick clearly, I.

1348
00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:09,720
Speaker 2: Know chicks guys. So I'm gonna go Silva as a champion.

1349
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,120
Speaker 2: And I can't wait for her in pain in a fight,

1350
00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,800
Speaker 2: because that's gonna be a fucking scrap. I like Silva

1351
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,040
Speaker 2: in the spot, probably by submission as well. When the

1352
00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:18,280
Speaker 2: props come out, we'll look at the submissions.

1353
00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:21,560
Speaker 6: For sure, two of the meanest women at MMA on

1354
00:58:21,640 --> 00:58:25,240
Speaker 6: the women's side, Maita Bueno Silva and Juliana Penya. But

1355
00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 6: Raquel Pennington could have something to say about all of that.

1356
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:29,280
Speaker 6: She's won five in a row, Kenny and now at

1357
00:58:29,360 --> 00:58:32,720
Speaker 6: thirty five, five and a half years removed from her

1358
00:58:32,760 --> 00:58:35,080
Speaker 6: first crack at UFC goal, which came against Amanda newon

1359
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 6: Az at UFC two twenty four. We'll see if the

1360
00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 6: second time will be the char the charm for Raquel

1361
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,240
Speaker 6: Pennington great person, not as the lead an athlete I

1362
00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 6: would say is Maita Bueno Silva, but she's got a

1363
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:47,720
Speaker 6: lot of tools, a lot of experience. Your thoughts on

1364
00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:51,320
Speaker 6: Pennington here Ken Flow versus the favorite Brazilian Maita Bueno silver.

1365
00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:54,280
Speaker 4: These women come to fight. I like this matchup a lot.

1366
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:56,960
Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be very exciting. While last both

1367
00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:00,560
Speaker 4: these women are nasty, whether it's with strikes or submissions.

1368
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:02,200
Speaker 4: They're there to do damage.

1369
00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 3: So I like that a lot.

1370
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:07,920
Speaker 7: Mara Buenosilva Bueno Silva has surprised me.

1371
00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:12,920
Speaker 4: You know, she comes from an area in uber Landia

1372
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 4: where there hasn't been a ton of them that have

1373
00:59:15,880 --> 00:59:19,160
Speaker 4: come out of there. But there's been some very very

1374
00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:22,960
Speaker 4: special martial artists that have come from uber Lagia. I know,

1375
00:59:23,040 --> 00:59:25,600
Speaker 4: in jiu jitsu anyways, you have guys like Marcelo Garcia,

1376
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:27,840
Speaker 4: one of the greatest, arguably one of the greatest of

1377
00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,240
Speaker 4: all time in the jiu jitsu world. You also have

1378
00:59:30,360 --> 00:59:33,360
Speaker 4: Lucas Leprie, my buddy who I trained with from time

1379
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:35,960
Speaker 4: to time, one of the best all times, certainly one

1380
00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:40,240
Speaker 4: of the best lightweights in Brazilian jiu jitsu history. Natan Schult,

1381
00:59:40,320 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 4: a guy who is a champion a few times over

1382
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:44,960
Speaker 4: in the PFL, trains over an American top team, So

1383
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:48,360
Speaker 4: they have produced some really elite martial artists over the years.

1384
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:52,200
Speaker 4: And I think she's special, man. You know, she's very aggressive.

1385
00:59:52,280 --> 00:59:54,960
Speaker 4: She knows how to bring the fight over her way.

1386
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,640
Speaker 4: I think she's facing another girl who is really nasty,

1387
00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:01,520
Speaker 4: loves to do damage in I think if Penicton's able

1388
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:05,560
Speaker 4: to get into boxing range consistently and stop those takedowns,

1389
01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 4: that's how she wins this fight. I just don't think

1390
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 4: it's gonna be that easy. Silva has a knack for

1391
01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:14,960
Speaker 4: bringing the fight into into her realm, even if she's

1392
01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:15,440
Speaker 4: on her back.

1393
01:00:15,520 --> 01:00:16,560
Speaker 7: She's very dangerous.

1394
01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:18,800
Speaker 4: She also knows how to mix in strikes at the

1395
01:00:18,920 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 4: right time. So I think this is a Brazilian fighter

1396
01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 4: that is poised to get the win here. I don't

1397
01:00:24,840 --> 01:00:26,919
Speaker 4: think it's gonna be easy, but I think she gets

1398
01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 4: the win.

1399
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:28,880
Speaker 8: All right.

1400
01:00:28,920 --> 01:00:31,760
Speaker 6: Before we get to your one thousand dollars expenditure, we

1401
01:00:31,800 --> 01:00:33,640
Speaker 6: will break down the main event for the undisputed You

1402
01:00:33,720 --> 01:00:37,200
Speaker 6: have the middleweight title, the American incumbent Sean Strickland minus

1403
01:00:37,280 --> 01:00:40,600
Speaker 6: one thirty five. The South African challenger drake Is dupless

1404
01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 6: is plus one fourteen. So Strickland now Brian, with confidence

1405
01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 6: seemingly accrued from that domination of Israel Ata Sonia trying

1406
01:00:47,160 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 6: to make good on the first title defense against the

1407
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 6: hard nosed duplus c. How are we feeling about the

1408
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:54,160
Speaker 6: main event, Brian?

1409
01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:56,480
Speaker 2: I love this main event. I loved it before they

1410
01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:59,920
Speaker 2: scrapped in the paper in the audience, mean that before,

1411
01:01:00,800 --> 01:01:03,840
Speaker 2: right before the press conference. I was new blood. Knew

1412
01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:07,720
Speaker 2: what's gonna happen. Sean Strickland blew me away against Israel

1413
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,400
Speaker 2: A Sun. He shut him down with that weird shell

1414
01:01:10,560 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 2: that he's got.

1415
01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 7: It's not for.

1416
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:14,800
Speaker 2: Everyone, it doesn't work for everyone. I know people went

1417
01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 2: to the gym on Monday and tried to duplicate it.

1418
01:01:17,000 --> 01:01:20,000
Speaker 2: It's very hard to do. It's not something that you

1419
01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:22,960
Speaker 2: know that everyone can do. But he does it very well.

1420
01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 2: He's confident now. He looks at me in phenomenal shape

1421
01:01:25,800 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 2: as well. It's all a picture with him and Johnny Eblin.

1422
01:01:28,080 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 2: He's diced up, you know, his abs are diced. His

1423
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:33,480
Speaker 2: cardio has never been in question. He'll take fights on

1424
01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 2: short notice. He's still gonna go five rounds, doesn't matter.

1425
01:01:36,240 --> 01:01:40,200
Speaker 2: Du plus CE man, this guy, shout out hardcore Anic

1426
01:01:40,280 --> 01:01:44,400
Speaker 2: and Florian listener Tom T Clark Ivy on on Twitter.

1427
01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 2: I think he's a New England boy and he loves

1428
01:01:47,600 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 2: the South African, the whole camp like he's obsessed with

1429
01:01:50,440 --> 01:01:53,000
Speaker 2: duplus C. He's been Ryan Dupus's wave and I remember

1430
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 2: seeing him on Twitter talking about du plus He's going, man,

1431
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:58,600
Speaker 2: well I don't see it. I'm what am I missing?

1432
01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:02,160
Speaker 2: I lost almost my house on the Robert Winnaker fight

1433
01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:04,560
Speaker 2: because I thought that was such a layup. But due

1434
01:02:04,560 --> 01:02:07,000
Speaker 2: Plus he just has something about him. He's awkward enough,

1435
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 2: he's powerful enough, he's strong enough just to do things

1436
01:02:10,520 --> 01:02:12,320
Speaker 2: that are there his noses fixed, you know that was

1437
01:02:12,360 --> 01:02:14,520
Speaker 2: a big problem. I saw him fight live in darent

1438
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 2: Till against Daron Till in Vegas. Again didn't blow me away,

1439
01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:20,520
Speaker 2: And I think Sean Strickland to me just walks through

1440
01:02:20,560 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 2: him right. Sean Strickland take down offense is goaded at

1441
01:02:24,120 --> 01:02:27,760
Speaker 2: one eighty five. His cardio is elite. His striking in

1442
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:31,600
Speaker 2: boxing's there. You know, defense a little questionable when he

1443
01:02:31,680 --> 01:02:33,440
Speaker 2: brings his chin up and du Plus He's could step

1444
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 2: into a right hand. We obviously could be seeing a

1445
01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 2: new champion. But I don't know, man, I'm missing the

1446
01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:41,320
Speaker 2: boat on Duplus's I don't understand it. I'm blind to

1447
01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:44,800
Speaker 2: him against I don't know. I'm all over Sean Strickland here.

1448
01:02:44,800 --> 01:02:46,440
Speaker 2: I think this is a Sean Strickland fight. I think

1449
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 2: at TKO late maybe even the decision win most likely.

1450
01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:52,200
Speaker 2: But I see Strickland all day in this fight. I

1451
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:53,440
Speaker 2: don't see it any other way.

1452
01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 6: Kenny Dracs Dupless's upset of Robert Whitaker was UFC two

1453
01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,440
Speaker 6: to ninety last July that made him the number one contender.

1454
01:03:00,520 --> 01:03:03,080
Speaker 6: His foot was injured, so the easy fight didn't happen.

1455
01:03:03,680 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 6: Dupless he largely bet on himself, and indeed it was

1456
01:03:06,280 --> 01:03:09,680
Speaker 6: the right wager. His next fight will be for the championship,

1457
01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:13,840
Speaker 6: albeit against Sean Strickland, first man's UFC title fight of

1458
01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:18,200
Speaker 6: twenty twenty four. Kenny dupless has burned you in the past.

1459
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:19,680
Speaker 6: What do you think about him here against Strickland?

1460
01:03:19,960 --> 01:03:22,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, he sure has, you know, thankfully has burned a

1461
01:03:22,760 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 4: lot more fighters than me. I should say, as far

1462
01:03:25,720 --> 01:03:28,200
Speaker 4: as picking right, I feel bad for those fighters.

1463
01:03:27,960 --> 01:03:29,480
Speaker 7: They go, I'm gonna take care of this guy.

1464
01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:30,200
Speaker 1: He does.

1465
01:03:30,400 --> 01:03:33,000
Speaker 4: He's not a great striker. He's not a great raffler.

1466
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,440
Speaker 4: It seems like he gets tired during fights. I got this, No,

1467
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 4: you don't got this against Ricis DUPLESSI I'm sorry to

1468
01:03:39,840 --> 01:03:43,880
Speaker 4: say it. Guys, He's a juggernaut. He he continues to

1469
01:03:44,000 --> 01:03:46,800
Speaker 4: come forward. You hit him clean, he shakes it off,

1470
01:03:47,120 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 4: continues moving forward, lands shots at awkward times. He could

1471
01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:53,880
Speaker 4: drop you with the jab, he could you know, head

1472
01:03:53,920 --> 01:03:57,240
Speaker 4: and arm throws, whatever it is, and he does damage

1473
01:03:57,320 --> 01:03:59,919
Speaker 4: in a very short amount of time.

1474
01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:03,640
Speaker 7: It's like he was losing that whole first round against Whittaker.

1475
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:05,720
Speaker 4: It was like, ah, this is gonna be another you

1476
01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:10,480
Speaker 4: know performance from Whitaker, just cruising to victory here at

1477
01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:11,720
Speaker 4: the end of that round.

1478
01:04:12,320 --> 01:04:15,880
Speaker 7: Not only did duples C steal that round, he stole

1479
01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:17,120
Speaker 7: the fight because of it.

1480
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:20,800
Speaker 4: Whittaker thought he was smooth sailing and he forgot about

1481
01:04:20,840 --> 01:04:23,040
Speaker 4: that guy that was in front of him, duplus C,

1482
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:28,720
Speaker 4: who was landing some really hard shots from some weird spots.

1483
01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:30,240
Speaker 8: You know.

1484
01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:34,600
Speaker 4: He uses a more of a clamshell type defense, both

1485
01:04:34,720 --> 01:04:38,760
Speaker 4: elbows up, so very similar to Strickland. When you're throwing shots,

1486
01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:42,080
Speaker 4: you're punching elbows, you're you're punching the top of the head,

1487
01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:46,000
Speaker 4: just awkward stuff. You think you have position on duples C.

1488
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,680
Speaker 4: Then he gets out. He goes for submissions that you

1489
01:04:49,760 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 4: don't think are there, that might be a little risky,

1490
01:04:51,960 --> 01:04:55,520
Speaker 4: and those long arms start to wrap up guillotines and darses,

1491
01:04:55,600 --> 01:04:59,240
Speaker 4: and it's just it's a nightmare of a matchup for

1492
01:04:59,360 --> 01:05:02,720
Speaker 4: anyone one hundred and eighty five pounds, despite you thinking

1493
01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:05,000
Speaker 4: that you were the better fighter, and guess what, you

1494
01:05:05,160 --> 01:05:07,920
Speaker 4: might be right, you might be the more skillful fighter.

1495
01:05:08,200 --> 01:05:10,960
Speaker 7: Are you the better fighter? I'm not so sure now.

1496
01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:14,720
Speaker 4: Sean Strickland also brings with him a certain level of

1497
01:05:14,920 --> 01:05:18,760
Speaker 4: unorthodoxy where he can throw people off but I think

1498
01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:23,680
Speaker 4: Sean Strickland is most effective when he's walking you down,

1499
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:27,040
Speaker 4: when he's backing you up, putting you up against the

1500
01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:31,040
Speaker 4: cage and then kind of picking you apart bit by bit.

1501
01:05:31,800 --> 01:05:34,440
Speaker 4: Do I see him backing up someone like Dude Plasi

1502
01:05:34,600 --> 01:05:37,560
Speaker 4: though I don't. The other thing, you know, when he

1503
01:05:37,800 --> 01:05:41,720
Speaker 4: thought his last fight against cannon ear, I thought that

1504
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:44,200
Speaker 4: was a pretty good indicator if you go back and

1505
01:05:44,280 --> 01:05:47,440
Speaker 4: watch that fight, because Cannoneer was kind of putting Strickland

1506
01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:50,400
Speaker 4: a little bit on his heels more, but wasn't throwing

1507
01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:53,840
Speaker 4: a lot of volume, certainly wasn't landing, or certainly wasn't

1508
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:55,960
Speaker 4: going for a lot of takedowns, in my opinion, And

1509
01:05:56,040 --> 01:05:58,080
Speaker 4: I don't think Strickland has faced a lot of guys

1510
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:00,280
Speaker 4: that have been trying to take them down. There's not

1511
01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:03,400
Speaker 4: a lot of great wrestlers at one hundred and eighty

1512
01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:05,200
Speaker 4: five pounds, not a lot of them.

1513
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,520
Speaker 7: Right, you have Chu Maya, if you have Bo Nicol.

1514
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:10,680
Speaker 4: They haven't faced someone like Strickland, right, They're still kind

1515
01:06:10,720 --> 01:06:12,880
Speaker 4: of waiting in the wings, waiting in the wings for

1516
01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:16,040
Speaker 4: that opportunity. So I'm not sure we've had a great

1517
01:06:16,120 --> 01:06:18,800
Speaker 4: gauge of how Strickland does against a dude who is

1518
01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:21,960
Speaker 4: committed to take him down. I think that's probably where

1519
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,840
Speaker 4: DDP sees his best opportunity for success. And as we

1520
01:06:25,960 --> 01:06:29,240
Speaker 4: saw against Whitaker, he maybe only needs twenty to thirty

1521
01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:32,320
Speaker 4: seconds of ground and pound to make you write the

1522
01:06:32,400 --> 01:06:35,880
Speaker 4: same when you started inside that octagon. It's uncandy. I

1523
01:06:35,960 --> 01:06:38,480
Speaker 4: haven't seen many guys who can put it on you

1524
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:40,440
Speaker 4: like that in a short amount of time and on the.

1525
01:06:40,480 --> 01:06:41,320
Speaker 7: Feed for that matter.

1526
01:06:41,680 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 4: The problem with that Philly shell as well is that

1527
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:49,960
Speaker 4: I do see a vulnerability in DDP potentially landing a

1528
01:06:50,240 --> 01:06:53,840
Speaker 4: right hand to the ear of Strickland, and that's going

1529
01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:56,520
Speaker 4: to be a problem again if Strickland isn't able to

1530
01:06:56,760 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 4: establish his pace and use that forward pressure, I think

1531
01:07:00,480 --> 01:07:03,360
Speaker 4: Strickland's best bet is to dominate the center of that octagon,

1532
01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:07,560
Speaker 4: backup DDP, establish that job, use those front kicks, and

1533
01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:10,560
Speaker 4: keep DDP on his back book. If he's able to

1534
01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:14,680
Speaker 4: do this, this is Strickland's fight. DDP is going out

1535
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,240
Speaker 4: there to kill or be killed. In my opinion, He's

1536
01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:21,360
Speaker 4: going to walk forward until you make him not walk forward.

1537
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:25,400
Speaker 4: While Strickland is good at diffusing pressure with circular movement

1538
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:29,320
Speaker 4: and things like that. I still think ddp's awkwardness, his wrestling,

1539
01:07:29,400 --> 01:07:32,080
Speaker 4: his strength, his power is going to be the difference here.

1540
01:07:32,120 --> 01:07:35,919
Speaker 4: Strickland isn't that one punch knockout guy. He's a volume guy.

1541
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:38,360
Speaker 4: If he's able to find success there's a certain point

1542
01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,200
Speaker 4: and then run away with it. I can see him

1543
01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:42,920
Speaker 4: accumulating blows in rounds four and five and winning the

1544
01:07:43,040 --> 01:07:44,120
Speaker 4: fight early.

1545
01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:44,440
Speaker 1: Though.

1546
01:07:45,320 --> 01:07:47,800
Speaker 4: I think he's We're gonna find out just how tough

1547
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:51,400
Speaker 4: Strickland is. I think he is extremely tough. But when

1548
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:54,120
Speaker 4: I'm looking at this fight, I'm gonna lean towards the

1549
01:07:54,240 --> 01:07:58,720
Speaker 4: underdog here. For value, I like DDP dricks duo. Plus,

1550
01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:00,880
Speaker 4: he is a guy I have not paied very often.

1551
01:08:01,560 --> 01:08:04,320
Speaker 4: You saw all the awards I gave to Strickland, so

1552
01:08:04,760 --> 01:08:06,400
Speaker 4: this has been a tough voice for me. I've done

1553
01:08:06,400 --> 01:08:09,240
Speaker 4: a lot of tape study here. I'm still very confused,

1554
01:08:09,320 --> 01:08:10,520
Speaker 4: but I'm leaning towards CDP.

1555
01:08:12,200 --> 01:08:15,240
Speaker 3: That's what happens with ke his film study right before

1556
01:08:15,760 --> 01:08:17,320
Speaker 3: the show that was amazing.

1557
01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:20,160
Speaker 6: I think gets one shot outstanding for one of the

1558
01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:23,240
Speaker 6: best mixed martial arts analysts in the space. All right,

1559
01:08:23,280 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 6: Brian Petrie, Yeah you are plus three hundred and seventy

1560
01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,519
Speaker 6: four dollars and seventy five cents after week one. I'm

1561
01:08:29,560 --> 01:08:31,360
Speaker 6: going to number the weeks all year, by the way,

1562
01:08:31,439 --> 01:08:33,160
Speaker 6: So we hit week two. It's a pay per view

1563
01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:36,640
Speaker 6: USC two ninety seven. Brian, how are you spending your

1564
01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:37,599
Speaker 6: one thousand dollars?

1565
01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:42,360
Speaker 2: So we're gonna go Katona for five hundred right off

1566
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:45,559
Speaker 2: the bat, almost with a thousand. We're gonna go Evil

1567
01:08:45,720 --> 01:08:49,120
Speaker 2: Lev two hundred. Right, We'll go opposite Kenny because Kenny

1568
01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:51,599
Speaker 2: like hour round that'd be interesting. We're gonna go Neil

1569
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 2: Magnie for one hundred bucks just because the number. Let's

1570
01:08:54,240 --> 01:08:57,080
Speaker 2: go and then now I feel like a complete asshole

1571
01:08:57,120 --> 01:08:59,800
Speaker 2: betting this because Kenny just did a masterclass on it.

1572
01:08:59,840 --> 01:09:02,040
Speaker 2: But I'm gonna go Sean Strickland two hundred dollars.

1573
01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:07,240
Speaker 6: Five hundred on Katona, two hundred on Ivloyev, one hundred

1574
01:09:07,280 --> 01:09:11,000
Speaker 6: on Magni, and two hundred dollars on Sean Strickland. That's

1575
01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:13,080
Speaker 6: a best of luck in the book, Brian, Petrie can

1576
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:14,960
Speaker 6: flow that brings us to you. You are up two

1577
01:09:15,040 --> 01:09:18,519
Speaker 6: hundred and thirty seven dollars and eighteen cents after week one.

1578
01:09:18,600 --> 01:09:20,240
Speaker 6: You get one k for Toronto can Flow.

1579
01:09:20,280 --> 01:09:20,760
Speaker 3: What are we doing?

1580
01:09:21,200 --> 01:09:23,280
Speaker 4: You know, I'm always looking to pick kind of pick

1581
01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:25,680
Speaker 4: brains and learn what I can from people who are

1582
01:09:25,760 --> 01:09:29,240
Speaker 4: more experienced in other domains. And you know, having the

1583
01:09:29,280 --> 01:09:31,639
Speaker 4: opportunity to hang out with Big Rod over in Vegas

1584
01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:33,720
Speaker 4: a little bit, you know, when I was kind of

1585
01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:36,360
Speaker 4: looking into his process, how does he do things?

1586
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:36,560
Speaker 5: You know?

1587
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:38,880
Speaker 4: For him, He's like, listen, I'm trying to win. I'm

1588
01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:41,160
Speaker 4: trying to win betts. It doesn't matter. I'm trying, even

1589
01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:43,840
Speaker 4: if they're little ones. I want to win more than

1590
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:45,719
Speaker 4: i'm trying to lose. So I have to be careful

1591
01:09:45,840 --> 01:09:48,200
Speaker 4: how aggressive I get with certain things. So I've been

1592
01:09:48,280 --> 01:09:51,320
Speaker 4: trying to adopt that a little bit. I'm behind Petrio

1593
01:09:51,320 --> 01:09:54,280
Speaker 4: already yet again here in twenty twenty four. Uh, but

1594
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:56,919
Speaker 4: this is how I'm approaching this. I'm going with Katona

1595
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:01,439
Speaker 4: for two hundred. I'm putting Allen in for one hundred.

1596
01:10:02,960 --> 01:10:07,120
Speaker 4: I'm going much bigger on m O. Silva here for

1597
01:10:07,320 --> 01:10:10,840
Speaker 4: four hundred, okay, And I believe that leaves one hundred

1598
01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:12,000
Speaker 4: for me to put on DDP.

1599
01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:15,599
Speaker 6: That leaves you three hundred for DDP. So you got

1600
01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:19,640
Speaker 6: two one on Allen. So you want three hundred on

1601
01:10:19,760 --> 01:10:20,719
Speaker 6: the I'm sorry.

1602
01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:25,840
Speaker 7: Let's put more. I had more on Allen originally. Yeah,

1603
01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:27,800
Speaker 7: let's put that three hundred on DDP.

1604
01:10:27,640 --> 01:10:31,599
Speaker 6: Kid all right, three hundred dollars on Dracus du plus

1605
01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:34,360
