I obviously was there. 115 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: We'll talk about all of it, but the but as 116 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,039 Speaker 1: you were walking out, Will was saying that Rogan's like, 117 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: I know you're going to see a new Michael Chanley here. 118 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 1: I you know, I don't think I know. Do you 119 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 1: think Olive Aaron knew you were going to strategically go 120 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 1: about this differently. If Rogan was so so clearly understood 121 00:04:59,320 --> 00:05:00,039 Speaker 1: the process. 122 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 2: Well, the funny thing was, I knew I was going 123 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 2: to but I also in my interviews, I didn't. I 124 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:06,880 Speaker 2: didn't want to talk about it too much. It's like 125 00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:08,479 Speaker 2: I did the whole. I talked about the whole Chandler 126 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 2: two point oh, Chandler one point zero. Maybe gave it 127 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 2: a little bit of too much information because I still, 128 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 2: I honestly wanted Charles Olivera to feel like he was 129 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,600 Speaker 2: fighting Michael Chandler for twenty twenty one. I wanted him 130 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: to think he was fighting the guy who fought in 131 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,200 Speaker 2: my last fight against Poorier in twenty twenty two. I 132 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: wanted him to think that was the guy he was fighting. Therefore, 133 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: when I switched the game plan up on him a 134 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 2: little bit, you know, it would be a different fight 135 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 2: and I throw him into a scenario. But I think, yeah, 136 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 2: Unfortunately the word got out that I was going to 137 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 2: fight a little bit differently, and I, you know, and 138 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: I did, who's the old Who's the rat? I mean, 139 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 2: I think it was I think it was me, your 140 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 2: own rat. I think, well, that's what I was saying. 141 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,240 Speaker 2: I was like, I, you know, but but no matter 142 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 2: what I mean, the narrative was, you could not hide 143 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,159 Speaker 2: it from the fact that I hadn't fought for two years. 144 00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 2: You had to talk about the Connor situation, had to 145 00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 2: talk about, you know, the two year layoff, the training 146 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,960 Speaker 2: camp for fighting at one seventy different mindset and then 147 00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 2: going down to one fifty five. And I was just 148 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 2: speaking more. Yeah, I'm just more of an open guy. 149 00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 2: I just I want my story to be told. I 150 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 2: want to wear my heart on my sleeve. If I cry, 151 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:14,479 Speaker 2: I cry, if I get mad, I get mad. I 152 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 2: just want to be myself and be authentically me. And 153 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 2: in that obviously, I was just talking about my growth 154 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 2: as a human being over the last two years, which 155 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:25,200 Speaker 2: was you know, hard times, tough times. You guys know 156 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 2: the behind the scenes stuff as the boys of like 157 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: the ups and downs of all of it. But I 158 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 2: grew as a human and became a better man and 159 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,800 Speaker 2: fighter and athlete because of it. And then yeah, I 160 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: just wanted to go out there a little bit more 161 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,039 Speaker 2: composed and calculated. Also, twenty five minutes is a lot different. 162 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 2: It's almost like double the amount. It's almost double the 163 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 2: amount of time as a three round four. 164 00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 1: When when's the last time you went a full fight. 165 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 2: Twenty five minutes, man, Benson Henderson, Like twenty sixteen or twenty. 166 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: Eighteen, Because every fight I think I've seen that. 167 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:58,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, peede blood after that one for sure, Yeah, that's 168 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 2: passed out. Actually that I passed out in that fight. 169 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: My my coach. I was unconscious on my feet. My 170 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,160 Speaker 2: eyes were open, but I was unconscious.

So it's a there's part of 339 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,600 Speaker 2: that where you're just like, man, thank god it's here, 340 00:13:56,640 --> 00:14:00,560 Speaker 2: because up until that moment, nothing is guaranteed, you know, 341 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 2: until that cage door actually locks, like, nothing is actually guaranteed. 342 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 2: So then then it starts to get a little bit 343 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,560 Speaker 2: more real. You hear his music. His music is awesome. 344 00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,959 Speaker 2: I don't understand it because it's Brazilian or Portuguese whatever, 345 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 2: but it's a totally different but it's a cool it's 346 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 2: a cool song. Sounds like a worship song or something. 347 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,440 Speaker 2: I don't know, but it's. 348 00:14:17,320 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 1: It's a Yesterday sometimes dude in the car. 349 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 2: Over there, dude. But that yeah, that's kind of the 350 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: moment where you're like, Okay, now it's you know, it's 351 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,200 Speaker 2: it's no longer about my walk out. I'm actually in here. 352 00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 2: Oh and that guy's coming out and you're kind of like, 353 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 2: you know, you make an eye contact, are you looking 354 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 2: at him? Are you now? You're now you're also still 355 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 2: questioning yourself, like how are you gonna play this. You're 356 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 2: gonna like mean mug him, You're gonna freaking you're gonna 357 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:45,000 Speaker 2: lock eyes and kind of do one of those numbers. 358 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 2: You're not gonna look him at all, which sometimes people 359 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 2: are like, oh, he does not looking at him, looking 360 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 2: at him at all, which shows lack of confidence. And 361 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:54,520 Speaker 2: sometimes it's a high level of confidence to not look 362 00:14:54,560 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 2: at your opponent at all, like Jose Aldo was a 363 00:14:57,080 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 2: was a perfect example of that. He would he would 364 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,200 Speaker 2: go face to face with the guy and just look 365 00:15:00,280 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 2: down and kind of like look at his feet the 366 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 2: whole time, would never never make eye contact. Yet he 367 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 2: would go out there and absolutely smash somebody. He wasn't 368 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:09,920 Speaker 2: afraid of them, you know. So it was it's an 369 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 2: interesting it's an interesting vibe, but it. 370 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:13,640 Speaker 3: Was just a game being played at all times. 371 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, there's mental warfare, just like people just playing chess. 372 00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 2: Well their piece is in certain but it's but it's 373 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 2: funny too, right, because we're all human beings, like we're 374 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: we're all we all must play by the rules of 375 00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:27,280 Speaker 2: human nature and and succumb to to just being a 376 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,600 Speaker 2: human and the thoughts that are going on, the biological 377 00:15:30,640 --> 00:15:32,920 Speaker 2: things that are happening inside of there. Where's your heart rate? 378 00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,480 Speaker 2: And all these different things. We're a human being, but 379 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 2: you get looked at differently because you're an athlete, and 380 00:15:37,640 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: then even kind of even more different because you're fighting 381 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 2: in an octagon with a very little rules, you know, 382 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,760 Speaker 2: but we're just human beings trying to figure it out, 383 00:15:46,840 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 2: and every single time is different. 384 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,080 Speaker 3: You talk about being thankful that he you know, he's there. 385 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: You guys are both there, the fight's gonna happen, you're 386 00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 3: both gonna get paid and whatnot. Whenn't there rumors of 387 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 3: him possibly backing out? Yeah, we're dropping out? Was it 388 00:15:58,120 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 3: due to injury? 389 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,320 Speaker 2: It? Well, so, I I never really got any kind 390 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:05,760 Speaker 2: of confirmation other than my my manager called me like 391 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 2: two days after that that news rumor kind of broke 392 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 2: and I didn't even think anything of it. I think 393 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: it was more there was some games misship I think 394 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 2: happening because it's like, hey, this happened to Chandler three 395 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 2: months ago, two weeks before the fight. Let's uh let's 396 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,600 Speaker 2: leak something. And it was Brazilian media, so I don't 397 00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 2: know if it was his coach saying something or what, 398 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 2: but I wasn't worried about it at all. I just 399 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: kept training and I knew it wasn't me, so yeah, 400 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,440 Speaker 2: it had to be him, But I think it was 401 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 2: all just. 402 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 3: The thing, and this is better than not fucking happened. 403 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I mean, your thoughts go there, You're like, well, shoot, 404 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 2: would I take another fight? Whoul? Who would they match 405 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: me up against? It's it's a short notice fight, so 406 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 2: then people think we'll shoot, it's an easy fight because 407 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 2: a guy's probably coming off the couch, But actually it's 408 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 2: not an easy fight because you're like, it's a brand 409 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: new opponent and that guy's got nothing to lose. Like, 410 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 2: I love that idea. If Hunter called me and it 411 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 2: was like, hey, you want to step in and fight 412 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 2: this guy on two weeks and I said to be like, hell, yeah, dude, 413 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 2: I got nothing to lose, but he gonna pay me. 414 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,440 Speaker 2: Let us sweep, let it fly, and if after a 415 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: round and a half my gas tank goes, you don't 416 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 2: really lose because you weren't training. 417 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: For the Ultimate Insurance Policy it's you know what it is. 418 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 2: It's Nate Diaz versus Connor one. Yeah, remember that it 419 00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 2: was on eleven days notice. Diaz had nothing to lose whatsoever. 420 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 2: Connor had everything to lose because he was training for 421 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:21,239 Speaker 2: ten weeks leading up to the fight, and he goes 422 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 2: out there and loses. He gases out and Diaz doesn't somehow, 423 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: and he had nothing to lose and went out there 424 00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 2: and won, shocked the world. 425 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, round one. So you're coming out with a 426 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: new mic two point zero. You get in there and 427 00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: you you feel it from like the beginning, the first 428 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:38,159 Speaker 1: ten seconds the fight. You guys are floating around a 429 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: little bit. He does a little leg kick, you kind 430 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 1: of move it out of the way, and it already 431 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,359 Speaker 1: feels in the building like, oh, this is way different 432 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: than we all expected. What at what point do you 433 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:50,360 Speaker 1: think he fully realized that this is a new mic 434 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: he's fighting. 435 00:17:51,720 --> 00:17:53,359 Speaker 2: Well, I know we went to the ground at some 436 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 2: point in the first round, within like the first two 437 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 2: the time. So I think that first the first couple, 438 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: the first couple exchanges, just just navigating and actually letting 439 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 2: the fight progress instead of instead of forcing myself into 440 00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 2: the fight, let the fight progress and if he lands 441 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 2: a shot or I land a shot or whatever it is, 442 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 2: let's just, you know, let's just get in here, let's 443 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,080 Speaker 2: move around a little bit rather than rather than going 444 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 2: right into the fire. And yeah, things were going well 445 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:24,600 Speaker 2: until that, you know that, uh first takedown really and 446 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 2: then got on the ground and then he but then 447 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 2: even then, I also it shows my growth instead of 448 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,959 Speaker 2: trying to force my way out of the position, I 449 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 2: was completely okay saying for the first time in my life, 450 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 2: I concede to day around. I let him stay on 451 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 2: I let him stay on top, and I let him 452 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:45,080 Speaker 2: win the round because I had twenty more minutes to fight. 453 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 3: And in your in your head, are you thinking too, like, 454 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 3: don't force anything here, you need your gas stake. Yeah, 455 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:51,480 Speaker 3: we're preparing for a five round fight. 456 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:53,399 Speaker 2: That was exactly what it was like I was. I 457 00:18:53,520 --> 00:18:55,320 Speaker 2: looked over at the clock. I've never seen a clock 458 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 2: ever in my thirty two fight career. I've never looked 459 00:18:57,359 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: at a clock, never wondered what time it was, never 460 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 2: heard my coach say thirty seconds, one minute, whatever. I've 461 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 2: never never worried about it because I'm in there fighting, 462 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:09,679 Speaker 2: Whereas there I was not really fighting. I was strategic. 463 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 2: I was I was like chart well number two. Even 464 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 2: more importantly, the greatest submission artist in UFC history is 465 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 2: on top of you, yeah, with your leg and my 466 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 2: left leg freaking up in a knee bar type of 467 00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:25,080 Speaker 2: position where you're one second away from him attacking that 468 00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,920 Speaker 2: and snapping my leg off. Plus he's on yeah, bus 469 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 2: he's on top and and you know he he you know. 470 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 2: I went back and watched the fight and Joe and 471 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 2: and like the commentators like those elbows he landed, he 472 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 2: didn't land it one one elbow on me whatsoever. They 473 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 2: all looked like they landed, but they all glanced off 474 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 2: my arm or glanced off like the side of my head. 475 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:45,960 Speaker 2: And I remember laying in there like he threw one. 476 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,520 Speaker 2: I was like, oh, thank you Jesus. That was good, 477 00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 2: because there was freaking, like three different times a couple 478 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 2: of those elbows were absolute fire balls coming at me 479 00:19:54,560 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 2: with his bony, freaking long elbows, and none of them landed, 480 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 2: and and I was just like, I'm gonna sit here, 481 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,199 Speaker 2: and then pushed them like as soon as the bell 482 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:04,919 Speaker 2: ring pushed them off me, walked to my walk to 483 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,440 Speaker 2: the to the stool are. 484 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,200 Speaker 3: There ever, times where you feel like you're in trouble 485 00:20:09,200 --> 00:20:11,800 Speaker 3: when he's got your back, is you're talking about rewatching 486 00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:14,120 Speaker 3: it and you're hearing the commentator, they're like, Chandler could 487 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,639 Speaker 3: be in a lot of trouble here if he just 488 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 3: you know, he can't give him his back, he can't 489 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 3: do this, like this is a very dangerous spot for 490 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:19,520 Speaker 3: Mike to be this. 491 00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that is that is his favorite spot to be 492 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,360 Speaker 2: in a fight, right, I mean he finished poor finished 493 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 2: Gaegee finished.

If you go back 499 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 2: and watch how long his forearms are, it's crazy, and 500 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: they're not big. They're bony and they're skinny, but he's 501 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,200 Speaker 2: still strong. So he's got really long arms and he's 502 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 2: got really long legs. So he's gonna he's gonna lock 503 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:58,200 Speaker 2: that figure four up around the body. Yeah, and freaking 504 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:01,200 Speaker 2: squeeze your guts out, separate your freaking rib. 505 00:21:02,119 --> 00:21:03,040 Speaker 3: And that one was happening. 506 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 2: I mean, I think he got it, and uh. 507 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: Is that the one you like fully stretched out over there? 508 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:10,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's when I think DC and Ruggan we're 509 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 3: going back and forth like, oh, he's been here before, 510 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:15,239 Speaker 3: and then I think somebody corrected the other. So you 511 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 3: got to remember that was in the first round of 512 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,199 Speaker 3: the last fight, Like this is different because tanks, you know, 513 00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 3: guys are wearing out a little bit. 514 00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it was. It was good. It was good 515 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 2: once you start getting sweaty, because I do remember that too, 516 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:27,560 Speaker 2: being in that first round. He gets on top of 517 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,360 Speaker 2: me and you can you can feel the guy you're 518 00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 2: holding on too, and it's like it's sticky and you're sticky. 519 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 2: Is not good when you're fighting Charles Alavera. Second round, 520 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,680 Speaker 2: third round, fourth round, when you're the sweat is flowing, 521 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:41,560 Speaker 2: everything gets a little bit more slippery or obviously and 522 00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 2: then you're in a better spot. But you're also always 523 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 2: in danger against Charles. But I've got good, you know, 524 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:50,400 Speaker 2: pretty good defense and keeping the hand control, and. 525 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,919 Speaker 1: When you're when in those three rounds, when you're on 526 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,920 Speaker 1: the ground all those times you always talk about being 527 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,520 Speaker 1: aware of him and how good he is. Was there 528 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:00,320 Speaker 1: ever a point where you're like, oh, fuck, like he's Yeah. 529 00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:02,959 Speaker 1: It was because there's a like you talking about hand 530 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: control all that. There's just things that I don't understand. 531 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 1: Will you do a little bit because you did wrestling, 532 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 1: But like I'm watching on the ground, I got JP 533 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:10,679 Speaker 1: in my air being like he's doing this well and 534 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,639 Speaker 1: that well, I'm just thinking to myself, I know he's 535 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:14,959 Speaker 1: good on the ground. Were you ever like if he 536 00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:16,359 Speaker 1: does this? One thing I am. 537 00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 3: Fucked was because one time he like had Mike's face 538 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 3: it seemed like. 539 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and in the fourth round I think it was 540 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,400 Speaker 2: or third round, third or fourth round, Yeah, he had 541 00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 2: he had a full on rear naked choke in there 542 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 2: two different times and I was able to pull pull 543 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 2: the arm down and then I also planted my elbow 544 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: and did this number. So I had kind of a 545 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:38,920 Speaker 2: kickstand going on there where he couldn't get the elbow 546 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 2: when any shorter. But I definitely had a moment or 547 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,720 Speaker 2: two where because you know when you're about to go out, 548 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: if you can feel it where the crowd goes, you know, 549 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 2: it starts to get starts to sound like you're in 550 00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:55,800 Speaker 2: a tunnel type of situation where you're like, okay, I'm 551 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 2: not that far away from being choked out right. 552 00:22:57,760 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: Now, you know, hit the crowd understand, I should understand while. 553 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 2: Your heart beats going one thousand miles an hour and 554 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:06,880 Speaker 2: your body's doing all kinds of biological stuff. But that 555 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 2: was but I just remember, you know, I I wasn't 556 00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:13,280 Speaker 2: you know, there was just things weren't going well in 557 00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 2: there as far as distance and movement and and my 558 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 2: footing and and all that kind of stuff. And then 559 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,399 Speaker 2: even being on the ground, I was like, I'm not 560 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 2: moving well on the ground. But I also don't want 561 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 2: to force positions I'm I was. When I walked into 562 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 2: that fifth round, I thought, Okay, this is where right 563 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 2: where I was supposed to be thwart off all the attacks. 564 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,520 Speaker 2: Let him do his grappling stuff, let him wear down, 565 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna finish him in the fifth. I had 566 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 2: the plan of being being there later in the rounds 567 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 2: to finish him in the fourth or fifth, and I 568 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,720 Speaker 2: knew that's right where I was, you know, wanting to be. 569 00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 2: But so I was just okay with those positions. 570 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, because you lose go ahead you you brought up 571 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,480 Speaker 1: I mean obviously before we get to the fifth. That's 572 00:23:53,560 --> 00:23:55,879 Speaker 1: the money fire, the money part of the fight. It 573 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: was unbelievable. But you talked about like you losing your footing. 574 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 1: You didn't feel like you were moving around too well, 575 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 1: like what you took a bagel' blee kick in the 576 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,360 Speaker 1: leg and it seemed like that that was wobbling like crazy. 577 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 1: And then I see you. I think it was after 578 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: the second round, jab second or third, You're doing like 579 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: the foot thing in the corner. It seemed like you 580 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:12,959 Speaker 1: were just trying to grab some sort of grip. So 581 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:15,120 Speaker 1: you it seemed like you were understanding that, like maybe 582 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: you weren't mechanically working correct. It wasn't your legs, was 583 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: your shoulder? Like what was going on? 584 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 2: Well, I'm not I will not say anything until I 585 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 2: get an MRI. But yeah, so I think something happened 586 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: to the knee in that first exchange where he had 587 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 2: the leg and I did like a full three sixty. 588 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,960 Speaker 2: He did like a little knee bar thing. Because I 589 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 2: walked back to the stool and I looked down on 590 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:36,640 Speaker 2: my left leg and it was not working right. It wasn't. 591 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,720 Speaker 2: It wasn't stepping. It wasn't catching, it was unstable. It 592 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 2: was weird. And then and then yeah, during the fight, 593 00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: it was like the because you spar all these rounds 594 00:24:46,880 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 2: and you know what it feels like. I've been fighting 595 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 2: for fifteen years, you know what it feels like to 596 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:53,399 Speaker 2: be on a solid foundation, to walk forward, plod forward, 597 00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:57,919 Speaker 2: move forward, attack, And I just wasn't moving backwards. It 598 00:24:57,960 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 2: was no problem. So my body in my brain was 599 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,920 Speaker 2: telling me moving backwards is cool, but moving forward planting 600 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 2: and being in his face and being in that pressure, 601 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 2: like even if you go back and watch the fifth, 602 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:10,560 Speaker 2: if you really watch the fourth and fifth, whenever I 603 00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: was kind of pursuing him, my legs were almost just 604 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 2: my my left leg was just like almost like flopping 605 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,240 Speaker 2: rather than stalking and moving forward, you know. And I 606 00:25:20,240 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 2: remember and Robbie Lawler is such a freaking badass Hall 607 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 2: of Famer in some of the craziest fights ever, and 608 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 2: I was just like, I can't get my footing. I'm 609 00:25:27,080 --> 00:25:28,600 Speaker 2: trying to figure out my footing, and he's like, well, 610 00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 2: you better figure it out. And I was like, you're right, Robbie. 611 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: Shit, it's like. 612 00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,440 Speaker 2: And yeah, it was uh yeah, man, I mean we'll 613 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,920 Speaker 2: we'll see, we'll see what happened. But yeah, essentially for 614 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,080 Speaker 2: about twenty three minutes of that fight, I don't know 615 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 2: if the leg was really working that well. 616 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 3: How does it feel right now? 617 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:49,920 Speaker 2: Not great? 618 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 3: Not great, not great? 619 00:25:53,520 --> 00:25:55,440 Speaker 1: How did you How did your feel before the fight? 620 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 2: The right knee? The right knee, you had some stuff 621 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 2: going on, and I think I think we're gonna get 622 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,919 Speaker 2: that cleaned up for sure. But I've had that for 623 00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 2: like two years. But the leftnee is like the worst, 624 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 2: the worst I've ever felt on any kind of injury whatsoever. 625 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,240 Speaker 2: But it's you know, it's a fight, man, it's you. 626 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 2: You figure it out. And I'm also, uh, my default 627 00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,480 Speaker 2: is never okay, where where's my excuses? Where's my where's 628 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,640 Speaker 2: my excuse? Buttons? You know, like I don't have those. 629 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:24,760 Speaker 2: So I was just I was like, well, it must 630 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 2: be my fault. It must be my footing. It must 631 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,760 Speaker 2: be you know, the canvas. It must be like I 632 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 2: got to get my feet wet, you know, I was 633 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: trying to getting my feet wet in between every single round, 634 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 2: like spitting water out, pouring water out, getting water on 635 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 2: my feet. Because and then now when I go back 636 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 2: and watch the fight because I know how I move, 637 00:26:41,160 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 2: I know what I look like. I got my my 638 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 2: last couple sparring sessions of how I move and what 639 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:49,439 Speaker 2: my foundation looks like on my feet, and it just 640 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,560 Speaker 2: was not the same at all. So it's a weight 641 00:26:52,840 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: bearing issue, slash balance issue, slash whatever. But I felt like, 642 00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: how many times did I fall in that fight? 643 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:00,240 Speaker 1: Up? 644 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 2: I'm a pretty I'm a decently athletic guy. Like I'm pretty, 645 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:06,400 Speaker 2: I'm pretty athletic. 646 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: If you look at the softball game you you made 647 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 1: things were more difficult to show off that. 648 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 2: And like, I've got a fly bone then just jumped 649 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 2: just catch it. And I'm better at fighting than I 650 00:27:21,040 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 2: am softball. But like I I just kept falling, like 651 00:27:26,200 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 2: and I'm like, I don't I don't really fall, you know, you. 652 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 3: You talk about even even the second round that you 653 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 3: know you ultimately had to kind of concede and figure out. 654 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 3: But ultimately it let going on to the ground because 655 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:37,959 Speaker 3: you tripped on the cage. 656 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I cut my foot, freaking just did something my 657 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 2: damn hand here. I looked down at my thumb because 658 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 2: I think my thumb went back and touched my wrist.

You 670 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 3: talked about conceding the first one and second one you 671 00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 3: kind of tripped and he had his way within the 672 00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 3: second round, third round, he's on top of you the 673 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,919 Speaker 3: whole time. Are you starting to like feel the conditioning 674 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 3: were off of me? Like, all right, I gotta start 675 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 3: taking some chances here. 676 00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, because also I didn't take any damage. I mean right, 677 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 2: I mean that was the one thing I mean to 678 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 2: me as an athlete. And I'm the hardest on myself, 679 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,639 Speaker 2: and obviously my wife is my biggest fan. She's gonna 680 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:34,000 Speaker 2: you know, she's got a skewed version and vision, as 681 00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 2: do you guys, probably, but she's like, yeah, he got 682 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 2: on top of you and controlled you. But like, I mean, 683 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 2: look at my face. I got a black guy. Part 684 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:43,200 Speaker 2: of the black eye too, was like I came down 685 00:28:43,240 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 2: and headbutted his knee or something in the fifth round. 686 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 2: Like I've jacked my face up more myself by going 687 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 2: in and trying to throw punches and running into limbs 688 00:28:51,880 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 2: more than actually getting punched in fights sometimes. But he 689 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:57,880 Speaker 2: wasn't doing damage. He was just getting. 690 00:28:58,480 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 3: Control the fight. Like if it was yeah, you're showing 691 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 3: the ride time and everything else. Yeah, control time. 692 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:04,840 Speaker 2: So like when it when it comes to that, I, 693 00:29:04,840 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 2: if you actually look at it, I landed more strikes 694 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 2: in the fight than he did, even though he controlled 695 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 2: and had, you know, because because he would just take 696 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 2: the back, do the body triangle and then kind of 697 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:16,280 Speaker 2: just do this number and we were just playing hand 698 00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 2: fighting for you know. 699 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,440 Speaker 1: When you're doing the back in the body triangle, Who's 700 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,200 Speaker 1: who's exerting more energy in those positions? 701 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 2: I was. I was resting a lot, you know, like 702 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 2: I and I and I and I say that that. 703 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 2: I used to hate that word because I think guys 704 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 2: pussy foot around. They don't fight hard enough, they don't 705 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 2: you know, their two point fight tactically. But I was 706 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 2: just like, well, hey, when Charles OLIVERA has your back. 707 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 2: I can choose to force this and put myself in 708 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,920 Speaker 2: a bad situation. I can choose to exert a crazy 709 00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 2: amount of energy with a fifty to fifty shot of 710 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 2: getting out. You don't get out, you try to create 711 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,479 Speaker 2: a scramble, your your cardio goes down. Maybe you put 712 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 2: yourself in a bad spot. Get Armbard triangled, some something silly, 713 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 2: or just let him, you know, let him do his thing. 714 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:00,840 Speaker 2: And I still got I mean, at that point in time, 715 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 2: you're in the third round, You're like, dude, I still 716 00:30:02,400 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 2: got twelve minutes left to fight. Twelve minutes is like 717 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 2: an eternity inside of there when one punch can finish 718 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 2: a fight. And I say that as as a guy 719 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 2: who I'm proud of myself for actually being in there 720 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 2: and fighting tactically and making conscious decisions rather than you know, 721 00:30:19,680 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 2: the you know, Dana calls me the arturial Gotti of 722 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:25,000 Speaker 2: the UFC type of you know, it's like, that's great. 723 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 2: I do love that. But also, man, I I was 724 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:30,040 Speaker 2: one hundred percent confident, one hundred percent positive that this 725 00:30:30,120 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 2: is exactly the way it was supposed to be. I 726 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 2: was going to be Charles Olivera. I was going to 727 00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 2: fight for the title next and this is the way 728 00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,200 Speaker 2: it was supposed to be, and I had to fight 729 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 2: that way as a real professional rather than just a 730 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 2: guy who goes out there and entertains in a crazy, 731 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 2: badass fight, get a bonus fight, could be up for 732 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 2: Fight of the Year type of situation, which is all great, 733 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 2: but man, I'm here for championships. So now that that 734 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 2: ship is sailed. 735 00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:53,440 Speaker 3: In defending off one of the best ground guys who's 736 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 3: known for finishing on the ground. 737 00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, and it, you know it, it needs 738 00:30:58,440 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 2: to be said as well. It's like I've only got 739 00:30:59,920 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 2: I've only lost the three guys in the UFC, you know. 740 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 2: It's like I've lost to Charles. Every single guy that 741 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 2: I've lost to has been ranked top two or three 742 00:31:06,720 --> 00:31:10,040 Speaker 2: in the world at at that moment. It's Poorier, Gai Chee, 743 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:15,280 Speaker 2: and Olivera. Olivera choked out and finished Poorier and Gai Chee, 744 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,520 Speaker 2: you know, and he wasn't able to do it to me. 745 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:20,480 Speaker 2: So I mean, it's all all of those things. And 746 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 2: it's either way. People can draw the conclusions that they want. 747 00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 2: People can love me, they can hate me, but we're 748 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 2: having fun, we're winning, So thank you. 749 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: I mean hard pressed to find, hard press to hate me. 750 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,000 Speaker 3: I mean that crazy Yeah, go ahead. 751 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: No, no, no, you were sizing up.

It's like it's 825 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 2: got to be pretty definitive, like if if because I 826 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 2: would want the exact same thing if I was up 827 00:34:34,400 --> 00:34:38,919 Speaker 2: three rounds, four rounds to one or none and Charles 828 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 2: Olivera clipped me, I would want the referee to not 829 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 2: step in unless it's like life or death situation because 830 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 2: I'm up. Just let me survive and I win the 831 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:49,360 Speaker 2: fight type of situation. And this is where, you know, 832 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:53,239 Speaker 2: this is where the my humility comes in, where I'm like, hey, 833 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: this is the sport and this is the way things 834 00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:57,920 Speaker 2: are supposed to be. Like I completely get if it 835 00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 2: was a different fight. I think I think Keith Peterson finishes, 836 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 2: finishes or steps in and pulls me off of him 837 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 2: after he takes those fifteen maybe twenty shots, especially in 838 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,400 Speaker 2: the first few rounds. Yeah, but he's already up a 839 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 2: couple of rounds there. So it's kind of like an 840 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 2: unspoken rule, let this guy survive unless I need to 841 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,239 Speaker 2: save him, unless, you know. But he was in a 842 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,240 Speaker 2: bad Yeah, he was in a bad spot. I remember 843 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:21,719 Speaker 2: when he turned over and he looked at it. For 844 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 2: some reason, his eyes were red like I don't know 845 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 2: if freaking like they were red like bloodshot, and he 846 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:28,840 Speaker 2: was looking at me, but he wasn't really looking at me. 847 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,279 Speaker 2: He was like looking through me, cross eyed, and and 848 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 2: just he was he was. 849 00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 4: Looking at God. 850 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:38,120 Speaker 2: He was all just in his head right there. 851 00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 3: He's like, I need to come back. 852 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:43,320 Speaker 1: You're good. That's a that's supposed to do that. 853 00:35:42,360 --> 00:35:44,040 Speaker 5: When you're on top of him and you lean back 854 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 5: and he Mike like took a few deep breasts and 855 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 5: then just starts going back in. 856 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, well yeah, And that's and that's one of 857 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 2: Charles Charles's good things because he's he's been he's not 858 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 2: the most dominant guy. If you watch him, you know, 859 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 2: he some bad positions and guys hurt him. But he's 860 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 2: but he's long and lanky, and he's and he could 861 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,720 Speaker 2: close his eyes and and and use his feet like hands, 862 00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,680 Speaker 2: you know, and and tie you up and do these 863 00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:14,520 Speaker 2: things with his big, old long limbs. So it was 864 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:16,799 Speaker 2: it's a tough position to be in because he's so 865 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 2: good at being defensive in those positions because he's been 866 00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 2: in those positions so much. And that's what you have 867 00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 2: to be as a jiu jitsu artist. You are going 868 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:27,520 Speaker 2: to concede the position and let a guy be on 869 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,839 Speaker 2: top of you so you can triangle him and armbar 870 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:31,440 Speaker 2: him and do these things. But you still have to 871 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,120 Speaker 2: be very good. Whereas me, I'm not that way because 872 00:36:34,160 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 2: I'm not ever on bottom like that, you know, with 873 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 2: a guy on top of me usually, So you get 874 00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,880 Speaker 2: in a position and you make one little mover, you 875 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 2: let him advance a little bit, and then he's got 876 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 2: you tied up and he's just hugging you with his 877 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,399 Speaker 2: legs or he's doing something, and then you can't land 878 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:49,200 Speaker 2: a good shot. 879 00:36:49,080 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 1: Right, So remind me, so you have him, you have 880 00:36:51,120 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 1: him down. I forget what happened next, because we thought 881 00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 1: it was over and the he was like putting it. 882 00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:58,600 Speaker 5: He was like trying to go for your arm in 883 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,320 Speaker 5: some weird way. And then that's when I feel like 884 00:37:00,360 --> 00:37:01,719 Speaker 5: it kind of got And so when you started to. 885 00:37:01,640 --> 00:37:03,719 Speaker 3: See a little like you know, the conditioning as far 886 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:06,080 Speaker 3: as like it's the fifth round and you're just unloading 887 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:08,399 Speaker 3: the clip on him, Yeah, whereas your that's where you're 888 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 3: like looking back and back. If I would have just 889 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:11,520 Speaker 3: stepped away and make him get. 890 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 2: Up, yeah, but obviously you have to follow him. I 891 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,120 Speaker 2: mean that was when I you know, that's when I 892 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 2: go back to it, and I had no weight. Like 893 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:20,840 Speaker 2: when you're on you when you're throwing a left hook, 894 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:24,279 Speaker 2: you want both your weight planted on both of your 895 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:26,799 Speaker 2: feet and if anything, a little bit more on your 896 00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 2: front foot because that's where you're all the power's coming 897 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 2: from your left hip, which for me is my front hip. 898 00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 2: And I threw that hook with my left foot in 899 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 2: the air because I wasn't putting weight on my left foot, 900 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 2: and this whift fell. We did a complete three sixty, 901 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:42,840 Speaker 2: and we landed in a good spot for me to 902 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,800 Speaker 2: to land good damage. So I wouldn't have I wouldn't 903 00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,680 Speaker 2: have stood us up. I wouldn't have stood up then 904 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:49,600 Speaker 2: right away. I would have tried to finish them right there. 905 00:37:49,600 --> 00:37:51,440 Speaker 2: But as soon as the as soon as the action 906 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 2: kind of stopped and I and I wasn't just dominating 907 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:56,440 Speaker 2: raining punches. It would have been nice to be able 908 00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:58,319 Speaker 2: to just push them away and make them stand up. 909 00:37:59,080 --> 00:38:00,480 Speaker 2: But here we are. 910 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:02,799 Speaker 1: And then he could see the ground what like a 911 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 1: minute forty five, a minute thirty left, And yeah, that's 912 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: the point we kind of knew, like all right, like 913 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 1: did you know, like, all right, he's got me on 914 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 1: the ground.

But I'm like, no, it takes a lot 972 00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 2: of energy. It's there's a one percent chance that it 973 00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 2: helps out and does something cool. It's just a cool, 974 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:49,640 Speaker 2: it's a wow factor type of situation. But with forty 975 00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 2: seconds left in the fight.

Right, So 1090 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,480 Speaker 2: I think he wants to see through to his commitment. 1091 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 2: Quite frankly, I mean, he needs to come back. He 1092 00:46:09,360 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 2: needs something to chase, or else he's going to keep 1093 00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:16,000 Speaker 2: chasing the wrong things.
