We've got 27 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: plenty on that that we are going to get to, 28 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 1: but we must start with the story that just keeps 29 00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,760 Speaker 1: on giving. And you know what's great about this is 30 00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,960 Speaker 1: sometimes things just line up exactly how they need to 31 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 1: line up, you know, Like we're in here, We're in 32 00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,920 Speaker 1: Vegas and a lot of people look at Vegas make 33 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: go Well, that's where you go if you want debauchery, 34 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: all right, a little something for everybody you walk down 35 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: the strip. Last night, I got a guy trying to 36 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,519 Speaker 1: hand me a placard. I'm thinking he's giving me a 37 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,639 Speaker 1: couple bucks. You look down and go, oh, she comes 38 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: to your room for how much? YEA, I'm gonna go 39 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 1: ahead and pass because I like stand married. But you 40 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: know what's great about this is that certain people like 41 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: to enter into that world, even in the professional setting, 42 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 1: and this is one of my favorite details to come 43 00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 1: out of a story in the NFL in a long time, 44 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 1: and it's perfect that we're in Vegas for it. So 45 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: when former NFLPA executive director Lloyd Howell stepped down a 46 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: few days ago, just figured, okay, hey, listen, this is 47 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,520 Speaker 1: just your run of the mill. Hey, upon further review, 48 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: conflict of interest, Okay, we got a conflict of interest. He's, 49 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 1: you know, working with a private equity firm that's working 50 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 1: with NFL O owners. A little bit of a conflict 51 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: of interest, if you will. And so when you see 52 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 1: that story come out and you go, all right, so 53 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 1: maybe that's what it is. Nah, No, that's not okay. Well, 54 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 1: maybe it's because he waited so long to appeal the 55 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 1: collusion evidence from the owners and that little meeting they 56 00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: had back in January. Maybe it's maybe it's that whole thing, 57 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: you know, Maybe it's maybe that's got something to do 58 00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: with it. Nah nah, not really. You know what a 59 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: This is why Lloyd House stepped down. This is why 60 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: figured it out. He was trying to avoid any more 61 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: scrutiny and taken away from the greater cause for players. 62 00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: That's important. You got to keep your mind on the prize. 63 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: You got to keep your eyes on the prize. You 64 00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 1: need to look out for the greater good of all 65 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: these players. That's why Lloyd House stepped down. No, all right, 66 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: so let's just see what's behind number four here. Let's 67 00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: open up the envelope, and number four how stepped down 68 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:08,400 Speaker 1: as executive director of the NFLPA because of strip clubs. 69 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:13,240 Speaker 1: That's right, everybody, congratulations, that is correct. Strip clubs for 70 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: Lloyd Howe. And if you want the details on that, 71 00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: don't worry about it. We got them. An outside investigator 72 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: hired by the union found that Lloyd Howell charged the 73 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: union for strip club visits that according to ESPN, not 74 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,320 Speaker 1: making this up. Not making this up, strip club visits. 75 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 1: Here are some of the details. How about twenty twenty 76 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: three when Lloyd Howe was picked up at the airport 77 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:45,200 Speaker 1: in Fort Lauderdale by a car service and went straight 78 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 1: to a place called Tootsi's Cabaret for eight hours. Now, 79 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 1: I'm just gonna ask you a question. What do you 80 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: do at Tutsi's cabaret for eight hours? All right? I 81 00:04:56,720 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 1: don't even sleep eight hours. Lloyd Howe got straight off 82 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: the plane and decided, you know what, I gotta go 83 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 1: stare at some ass. That's what I gotta do. I 84 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: gotta stare it. And the best part is I'm gonna 85 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 1: expense it to the PA. Okay, listen, one time issue? 86 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: What are we? What are we judging for? Like we're 87 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 1: in Vegas right now? We are I gonna sit here 88 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 1: in judgment and then you find out that, well, we 89 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: got a problem because in February when he probably could 90 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 1: have been appealing that ruling that came out that showed 91 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,520 Speaker 1: collusion by the owners. In February when he could have 92 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 1: done that instead, Lloyd Howe was he was at a 93 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: player summit in Atlanta, and according to ESPN, during this 94 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: year's NFL PA Player Summit on February twenty first, Lloyd 95 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 1: Howl accompanied the employees to the Magic City Strip Club 96 00:05:56,640 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 1: for an outing that incurred that's over two thousand, some 97 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 1: four hundred dollars in charges, including cash withdrawals ranging from 98 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,359 Speaker 1: two hundred dollars to five hundred and twenty five dollars. Now, 99 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 1: I ask you again, what are you taking money out 100 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: at a strip club for? All right, especially in Magic City? 101 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 4: All right? 102 00:06:14,640 --> 00:06:16,840 Speaker 1: What are you doing that for? I think we all know? 103 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: And again the document showed it. They used two VIP rooms. Again, 104 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 1: what do you need of Vietna? You know what it is? 105 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 1: Maybe Lloyd how needed better Wi Fi in those VIP 106 00:06:29,440 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: rooms and maybe the WiFi is a little bit more 107 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 1: expensive at Magic City, So that's why he decided, you 108 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 1: know what, I got to go on that little private 109 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: VIP room. But according to this expense report, the purpose 110 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,159 Speaker 1: of the strip club outing was quote player engagement event 111 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: to support and grow our union. And I got news 112 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: for you. If you go to those two places, something's 113 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 1: growing for sure. For sure, I'm not sure if it's 114 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:51,920 Speaker 1: the union. 115 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 5: No. 116 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: The best part about all this is that Lloyd how 117 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: had this stuff in his past. There was issues about 118 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 1: this him expensing strip club visits to a previous employer 119 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, and you're probably looking at it and going, well, jeez, 120 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: why is all this stuff coming out on Lloyd Howe. Well, 121 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 1: you know why. It's what Chris Carter told us at 122 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 1: the Rookie Symposium year ago, years ago. You need a 123 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: fall guy, and Lloyd Howe is the fall guy. And 124 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: this is also the players union can save face and 125 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: they can have that fall guy for all the scrutiny 126 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: that they've gotten. It's a good jo I've got a crew. 127 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 4: You've got to have a fall guy. 128 00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 1: That's a great point, Chris. And all these years later, 129 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,760 Speaker 1: now it makes sense. So all of a sudden, you've 130 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,680 Speaker 1: got all this information about Lloyd Howe going to strip clubs. Man, 131 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 1: this guy gets off a plane in Fort Lauderdale, and 132 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: the dude just can't help himself. He can't help himself. 133 00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 1: He's like, I got two choices here. I either get 134 00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:55,480 Speaker 1: off this plane and I go to a practice and 135 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: look like the charger security guard shuffling my skin car 136 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: cards on the sidelines while some people are waving palm poms. 137 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 1: Or I could just go to Tutsi's cabaret. I got 138 00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 1: to get this out of me. And you're hearing all 139 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: this information and seeing all these details come out, and 140 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,640 Speaker 1: then you look around and I asked the question that 141 00:08:15,680 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: I asked when reports about the NFLPA and this collusion 142 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 1: and all that stuff started to surface. I asked this question, 143 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 1: then I will ask it now. And you wonder why 144 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: the NFLPA loses every single negotiation with the owners every 145 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 1: time around? Do you wonder why it's stuff like this 146 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: and we would have never known. That's the best part 147 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: about this. The players would have never known. I mean, 148 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: the once at the Strip Club would. I mean, the 149 00:08:47,280 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: people at Tutsies probably would. I mean, I mean that's 150 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: a night to remember. I mean, you know, Magic City 151 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: and listen, if you believe Rob Parker, Magic City is 152 00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 1: a phenomenal place. Rob Parker claims to put a lot 153 00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,920 Speaker 1: of people through college there. Again, I don't know. That 154 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 1: feels like a reckless claim, same mouth. But you see 155 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: these details come out and you go, oh my god, 156 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 1: it's even worse than we thought. D'morris Smith in twenty seventeen, 157 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: and again this all comes back around and sometimes everything 158 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 1: works out perfectly. I can remember being here in Las 159 00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:31,000 Speaker 1: Vegas in twenty seventeen. It was for the Mayweather McGregor fight. 160 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:36,080 Speaker 1: I'm working alongside the great Tom Looney, and I can 161 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:41,000 Speaker 1: remember sitting there having a conversation with Mark Schlaith, and 162 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 1: Schlareth told us because the topic of conversation at that 163 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: time was that Demorris Smith came out as the NFLPA 164 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: president and said, you know what, we're going to get 165 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,200 Speaker 1: changed down. We're going to get this done. We're going 166 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 1: to get that done. The next time this stuff comes around, 167 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:57,439 Speaker 1: we got it covered. And Mark Shlareth called us bluff 168 00:09:57,920 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: and basically told us, oh, hey, dude, like no, no, 169 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: you're not. What are you going to settle? And settle 170 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: for padded practices? Players can smoke weed again for an 171 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 1: extended period of time when you see all of that 172 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 1: lead into all of this, and every day new details, 173 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: new details, new details, and you're asking yourself as a player, man, 174 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: these are the people that we trust to represent us 175 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: to try and get deals done, to try and get 176 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 1: what's done for the betterment of our lives, our future 177 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:36,360 Speaker 1: in the sport them. But they told us, hey, we 178 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 1: vetted Lloyd how we vetted him? Like, so, I would 179 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: like to say this in conclusion as an apology to 180 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: the NFLPA. You are correct his you know, conflict of 181 00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: interest with a private equity firm working with the owners. 182 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: You're right, you vetted that. That's not what the concern is. 183 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:05,320 Speaker 1: The concern is the guy walking into Tutsie's cabaret after 184 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: a flight in Fort Lauderdale and spending eight hours there, 185 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: only to follow that up after this collusion hearing that 186 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,720 Speaker 1: you had a couple of weeks later, when he should 187 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: have been appealing everything. Going to Magic City and taking 188 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: out eight hundred dollars from a club ATM Now, maybe 189 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:25,400 Speaker 1: it's cash only there. I mean, maybe he was getting 190 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,520 Speaker 1: something to eat. Bottom line is this whole thing was 191 00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 1: a circus. This whole thing is a clown show, and 192 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: it's another example further proof of why the NFLPA can't 193 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: get it together.

Well, I mean listen, I 253 00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 1: think everybody hears the voice. I mean everybody here is 254 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: Jim Gray, and they go, oh, I know him, like 255 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 1: you've got that's very nice. Yeah, And obviously International Boxing 256 00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer Jim Gray, and I just I want 257 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:14,440 Speaker 1: to ask you, obviously, congratulations on an incredible run, incredible career. 258 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: Why do you think you've been able to do this 259 00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 1: at as high of a level as you've done it 260 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: for as long as you've done it? 261 00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 7: You know, that's kind of hard for me to assess, 262 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:30,640 Speaker 7: But I just think that, you know, I've just tried 263 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 7: to ascertain information and let the public hear it and 264 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 7: let them see what goes on and ask the questions 265 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,360 Speaker 7: that we're all curious about. I mean, I'm just watching 266 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 7: the game like you're watching the game like all of us, 267 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 7: and you know, it's just they've just been normal, They've 268 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 7: just been average, Like this is just what it is 269 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 7: that was in front of us, so let's ask the 270 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:55,560 Speaker 7: folks about it. Never in a way other than to 271 00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 7: ascertain information and to enlighten and to let people again 272 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:03,120 Speaker 7: and see what's gone on and find out why, find 273 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 7: out what, find out how. 274 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: And so I think I think that it just kind of. 275 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 7: You know, that enables you to have longevity, and you know, it's. 276 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 1: I've been fortunate. I've been lucky. 277 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,560 Speaker 7: I've had good bosses I've had I've had people who've 278 00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 7: trusted me, and that's that's part of it too, you know, 279 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 7: you earn the trust of what it is you're doing. 280 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 7: And I grew up Jonas in an era where you 281 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 7: weren't trying to make a headline or have a hot take. 282 00:16:30,240 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 7: You were trying to get that information and the relationship mattered. 283 00:16:35,760 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 7: So my career has been based on relationships from the 284 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 7: first interview I did with Muhammad Ali and he then 285 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 7: let me do the last interview some thirty something years 286 00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:49,520 Speaker 7: later of his career. So the relationship with whoever it 287 00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 7: has been has always been. I knew Kobe Bryant since 288 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 7: two weeks after he was born, so you know, until 289 00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 7: unfortunately when he passed away. But it was more important 290 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:04,040 Speaker 7: to me that we continued that relationship and had a 291 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:07,360 Speaker 7: rapport and when he was asked, he was asked, when 292 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 7: I went into the Boxing Hall of Fame, how would 293 00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 7: you describe Jim Gray? 294 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 1: Give me one word? He said, honest. 295 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,120 Speaker 7: Well, that still touches me in a way, because that's 296 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 7: what I've tried to do is just be honest. Be 297 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 7: honest with the people I've dealt with, be honest the 298 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 7: people I've worked for, and be honest with the public. 299 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 7: And you shouldn't be congratulated for that. That should just 300 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 7: be normal. That should just be what it is. But 301 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 7: you know, it does touch me in a way that 302 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 7: that's how he felt. And perhaps that's an answer to 303 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 7: your question. Obviously you love it, otherwise you wouldn't be 304 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,720 Speaker 7: doing it as long as you've done it. And you know, 305 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,679 Speaker 7: some people will say, you know, why do you do 306 00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 7: what you do what you do because you love it? 307 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: Where did that love start? Where was the point where 308 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:48,879 Speaker 1: you said, oh, that right there, I'm doing that. 309 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 7: I never had a plan. I never had a plan. 310 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 7: I love sports from the time I grew you know, 311 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 7: from I can remember. I love throwing the ball with 312 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 7: my dad. I love going to the games with him. 313 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 7: I loved hanging out in the neighborhood and playing wiffle 314 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,960 Speaker 7: ball and baseball and football, and then I was tennis. 315 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 7: I played tennis, and I was a city champion in 316 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 7: Denver for tennis for a few years, and then at 317 00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:14,760 Speaker 7: my high school we won the city championship. 318 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: So you know, it was just. 319 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,159 Speaker 7: Kind of something that I always loved. And then I 320 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 7: became a video tape editor. When they were converting from 321 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 7: film to videotape, Jonas all the guys took all the 322 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 7: guys who were older, the film guys at the union guys, 323 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:29,800 Speaker 7: they took the buy out, so a bunch of young 324 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,560 Speaker 7: kids got to be able to be videotape editors. And 325 00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 7: so I was a videotape editor. One day I was 326 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 7: sitting in my booth for the ABC station in Denver, 327 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 7: and they came in and said, you were the sports 328 00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 7: intern and you edded all the sports video tape. I said, yeah, 329 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 7: So seven o'clock in the morning, he says, Mahmaed Ali's 330 00:18:44,760 --> 00:18:46,760 Speaker 7: two and a half hours early at the airport. We 331 00:18:46,800 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 7: can't find anybody go interview. And while I was dressed 332 00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 7: like this, I certainly wasn't dressed in a fashion to 333 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 7: go greet Muhammad Ali and I had never done an interview, 334 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 7: never done one interview. So I went out there and 335 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 7: interviewed Muhammad Ali. He was getting ready to fight Leon Spinks, 336 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 7: and then after that he was going to fight Lyle Alzado, 337 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 7: who was a Denver Bronco became a Raider, was a 338 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 7: very famous defensive end number seventy seven, and he was 339 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,399 Speaker 7: going to have an exhibition against him in my eye stadium. 340 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 1: So I did the interview Ali. 341 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 7: When I walked in and sat down, he said, you're 342 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 7: doing this interview you don't even shave, and he was right, 343 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 7: but that made me laugh, like you laugh, and it 344 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:22,560 Speaker 7: just broke the ice and the whole entourage twenty five 345 00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 7: people there. Third or fourth question, he said, you sound 346 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 7: like the local Howard Cosell, and I thought, wow, what 347 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 7: a compliment, because I've been watching Howard Cosell my whole life, 348 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 7: and I'm thinking that guy's great. 349 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: I love Howard Cosell. 350 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 7: It was a love hate relationship with Howard Cosell, and 351 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 7: I loved him, and so took the interview back. Make 352 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:44,240 Speaker 7: a long story short, and the guy who ran the bureau, 353 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 7: man named Roger Ogden, was my boss, he didn't even 354 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 7: know my name, came in and he watched that videotape 355 00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 7: for an hour and a half, watched the forty five 356 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 7: minutes that Ali gave me. Twice, he got up and 357 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 7: he stood up and he looked at me and he said, Jim, 358 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 7: you and this interview are going on the air. It's 359 00:19:58,320 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 7: barely adequate. So I tell everybody I've been barely adequate 360 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 7: ever since. 361 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: Well, look the great Jim Gray joining us here on 362 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:09,119 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, Jonas Knox with you. I don't know 363 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:13,520 Speaker 1: that people understand how difficult it is to do this 364 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,320 Speaker 1: for as long as you have at as high a 365 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: level as you've had, because look, man, you know, less 366 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: than a year into my first opportunity, I got laid off. 367 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: Like there are so many changes that happen. It's such 368 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: the broadcast business is always in flux, even to this day. 369 00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 1: And so if you go back and you talk about, 370 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,439 Speaker 1: you know, all the interviews you've done, all the greats 371 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,439 Speaker 1: that you've been in the ring with, or on the 372 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 1: court with, or on the field with, do you go 373 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 1: back to a moment to where you say, when I 374 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 1: decide on my terms, I'm good here. That's the one 375 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,640 Speaker 1: I think about most fondly. No, I don't have that yet. 376 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:49,480 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't have that that moment. 377 00:20:49,520 --> 00:20:51,639 Speaker 7: I mean, I've had several moments that I'm really proud of, 378 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,360 Speaker 7: and several moments that have been really you know, satisfying 379 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,160 Speaker 7: and unique, but they've all been great. Like I'm looking 380 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 7: forward to talking to Manny Pack. Yeah, what happens if 381 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 7: he pulls this? Okay, I had forty six? When's the 382 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 7: title after he gets into the Hall of Fame after 383 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 7: he hasn't fought for four years. 384 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: So it's still exciting to me. I still enjoy it. 385 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 7: I mean, I still like doing my show with Brady 386 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 7: and Belichick and Max Crosby and Peter King and so forth. 387 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 7: So No, it's still fun. I still like coming to 388 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,320 Speaker 7: these fights. I still like, you know, going to games. 389 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 7: I've always loved going to the arena and seeing the 390 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,080 Speaker 7: games and talking to people, and it's given me every 391 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 7: opportunity that I've had in my life. So I haven't 392 00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 7: looked to say that this is the end, because I 393 00:21:28,520 --> 00:21:31,639 Speaker 7: still look at myself like that seventeen year old that 394 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,120 Speaker 7: was in wonderment of going to talk to Muhammad Ali. 395 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 7: I'm still feeling like, I'm lucky. I get to do 396 00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,199 Speaker 7: this because I'm talking for a living. I'm talking for 397 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,720 Speaker 7: a living. And Steedman, Graham and Oprah gave me the 398 00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:47,120 Speaker 7: best advice that I'd ever heard, Jim Gray. They're paying 399 00:21:47,119 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 7: you to talk. Just keep talking, Just keep talking. I 400 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,520 Speaker 7: could be building bridges or paving roads, or selling telephones 401 00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 7: or doing all kinds of stuff. But I get to talk, 402 00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,040 Speaker 7: and I get to ask people questions, and so that's 403 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 7: pretty good, isn't it. 404 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: I mean, he doesn't get much better than that. I mean, 405 00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: you mentioned manupac Yo obviously fighting Barrios coming up later 406 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,760 Speaker 1: on at this age, coming out retirement, hasn't fought since 407 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:13,680 Speaker 1: twenty twenty one, the career that he's had. What has 408 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,360 Speaker 1: impressed you most about manipac Yaw not just the fighter, 409 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,440 Speaker 1: but the man, the person you've interviewed as many times as. 410 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 7: You have, that he's so great with people, that he 411 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 7: held public office, that somebody wants something from him every 412 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 7: second of his life, every minute, every hour, every day, 413 00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:34,440 Speaker 7: so on and so forth. Somebody wants something from him 414 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 7: all the time, and he seemingly has taken care of 415 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,919 Speaker 7: a whole lot of folks, and he's left himself for 416 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 7: good for future generations. So I admire the person and 417 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 7: the way that he behaves, at least the public side 418 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,040 Speaker 7: that we get to see. You know, I don't know 419 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 7: him well, so I don't know the private side. I'm 420 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 7: only in this company when I'm interviewing him, or at 421 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,120 Speaker 7: a fight, or you know, perhaps at a production meeting 422 00:22:57,160 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 7: or something of this nature. But I'm just I think 423 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,600 Speaker 7: it's hard to share your life with the world, and 424 00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 7: that's what he's done. And think about his family and 425 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,040 Speaker 7: what they have to go through, and you know, when 426 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,920 Speaker 7: nothing is ever private. And all of this changed, obviously 427 00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 7: with the advent of the iPhone sixteen seventeen years ago, 428 00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 7: in the cell phones and so forth, everybody's walking around 429 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 7: with cameras and videotape machines and every place we walk in. 430 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,879 Speaker 7: We're in a room right here, there's probably eighteen sets 431 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 7: of hammeras in this room that we can't see, or 432 00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 7: even if we do see it, that is probably zoomed 433 00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,240 Speaker 7: right in on us and possibly can hear it. So 434 00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:37,479 Speaker 7: your whole life now is dissected moment to moment, and 435 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 7: I just think that it's really I think it's really 436 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 7: a difficult circumstance. To have to live like that all 437 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 7: the time. It's not easy. And so I admire when 438 00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:53,080 Speaker 7: I see people in public who never ever snap, who 439 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 7: never have bad public moments. Michael Jordan was like that, 440 00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 7: Have you ever seen Michael Jordan have a bad public moment? 441 00:24:00,119 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 8: Now? 442 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, now you think remarkable, isn't it. Now you think 443 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,720 Speaker 7: about it, it's remarkable. He navigated those waters nicely, he 444 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:08,679 Speaker 7: was and it was great. And that's why we all 445 00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 7: feel so great about him. You know what we left 446 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,439 Speaker 7: what he did on the court. We loved what we 447 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,840 Speaker 7: saw away from the court. He patted every kid on 448 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 7: the head, he took the picture, he did whatever it 449 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 7: was that we saw. And so that's what I admire 450 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 7: about Manny. And I don't think that's an easy life. 451 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 7: In fact, I know that's a difficult life. Being close 452 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 7: to a number of great athletes. It's not easy. It's 453 00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,160 Speaker 7: very difficult, and it's very hard for the families. 454 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 1: Jim Gray joining us here on Fox Sports Radio, Jonas 455 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,879 Speaker 1: Knox with you, So tell me about the Hall of Excellence, 456 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: because I'm watching the Dan Patrick Show about four weeks ago. 457 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 1: I've heard on many of these Fox Sports Radio affiliates, 458 00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: and I'm hearing you say that you've got John Madden's 459 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: last plane ticket. That's correct. Okay, hold on, how does 460 00:24:56,840 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: one get a hold of John Madden's last plane ticket. Well, 461 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: in this instance, I called Mike Madden, and Mike Madden 462 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: is John's son who's a good friend of mine. 463 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 7: And I lived with John Madden. I lived at John 464 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:13,719 Speaker 7: Madden's home in the Dakota for many years in the 465 00:25:13,720 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 7: eighties and nineties, when John was riding around on the 466 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 7: train and the bus, and we were good friends. And 467 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:23,240 Speaker 7: I took my first job at NBC. I left ESPN 468 00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,240 Speaker 7: and was going to the network at NBC. And when 469 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 7: I got to take the job, they wanted me to 470 00:25:29,000 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 7: relocate in New York and I lived in Los Angeles. 471 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 7: So I was playing golf with Madden one day and 472 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 7: he said, here, great, just stay in my apartment at 473 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 7: the Dakota. So I was like the guy who came 474 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:42,399 Speaker 7: for dinner and never left. I was there forever. And 475 00:25:42,480 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 7: so I got to know John really well. Love John, 476 00:25:44,600 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 7: love his family, loved the raiders and everything, and he 477 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 7: was just a great influence on my life. We had 478 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 7: so much fun. We spent a lot of meals and 479 00:25:54,640 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 7: a lot of time traveled on the bus. So when 480 00:25:57,000 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 7: we got the Hall of Excellence ready, and the Hall 481 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:01,960 Speaker 7: of Excellence his name because of commitment to excellence and 482 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 7: because of my relationship with Al Davis, who wanted to 483 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 7: build his own Raiders museum and never got around to 484 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 7: it in his life. Perhaps Mark his terrific son will. 485 00:26:12,440 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 7: But I said to Al when he told me that 486 00:26:15,000 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 7: this is what he wanted to do, I said, you know, 487 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 7: you said commitment to excellence. Your museum should be the 488 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 7: Hall of Excellence. He said, Jimmy, that's a good idea. 489 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 7: So I took that name. All these years later and 490 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,920 Speaker 7: Tom and I created this. But I called Mike Madden. 491 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 7: I said, Mike, I need something from your dad. He's 492 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 7: a big influence in my life, the greatest broadcaster ever. 493 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:34,120 Speaker 1: He created the Madden Game. 494 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 7: He's one of the greatest coaches of all time, and 495 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 7: we need to have his own display case in our museum. 496 00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:42,760 Speaker 1: What can you send? 497 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 7: So Mike sent me some great artifacts from John's life, 498 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,640 Speaker 7: and one of them was the last plane ticket from John. 499 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,919 Speaker 7: I mean, for people that just understand, that was the 500 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 7: most amazing part about the whole collection, because it's because 501 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 7: you've got the Hall of Excellence and it's a world 502 00:26:58,440 --> 00:26:59,960 Speaker 7: class sports in the Entertainment Museum. 503 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 1: It's at the Fountain Blue in Las Vegas.

Of 580 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: all the random pieces of memorabilia you could ever have, 581 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 1: if you were to give me one hundred guesses, I 582 00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,680 Speaker 1: would have never have said that. But John the last 583 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: flight Madden never took the plane ticket to it at 584 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 1: the Hall of Excellence out here in Vegas. That's awesome. 585 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 9: I gotta be honest, I would I would go just 586 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 9: to see that the last plane ticket, because I'm obsessed 587 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 9: with that whole Madden Cruiser. I probably shouldn't tell the story, 588 00:31:14,840 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 9: all right, if you ever talked to Wayne Gretzky. Apparently 589 00:31:18,920 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 9: Wayne Gretzky was the only person to ever do something 590 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:29,719 Speaker 9: on the Madden Cruiser besides John Madden. John Madden had 591 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 9: a rule that all guests were not allowed to how 592 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 9: can I put put it this way, score a number 593 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 9: two on the Madden Cruiser and Wayne's off. Yeah, and 594 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 9: Wayne Gretzky was the only person besides John Madden whoever 595 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 9: on the Madden Cruiser, which I just think is perhaps 596 00:31:51,560 --> 00:31:53,240 Speaker 9: his most noted accomplishment ever. 597 00:31:53,600 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: By the way, you know what's great about that? You 598 00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: know Gretzky made it right in the hole two. You know, 599 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 1: liken't even like there was no docking of the boat, 600 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 1: there was no like, no splash. It was literally right 601 00:32:04,040 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 1: the five hole, right in the Madden Cruiser toilet. You 602 00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:10,200 Speaker 1: know that to be a fact. If it's not, we 603 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:11,680 Speaker 1: just made it a fact here on the show. 604 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 9: By the way, So in case you ever interview Wayne Gretzky, 605 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 9: I think that's a question he probably doesn't get very often. 606 00:32:19,240 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 1: Hey, Wayne, did you take it dump on the Madden Cruiser, 607 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: Ischlow and crawler. Right, you're a real broadcast professional. 608 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 9: Ilo, I'm telling you, I'll tell you you do research 609 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,720 Speaker 9: on your interview subjects. Anyway, from right in the hole 610 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:34,560 Speaker 9: as you put it to literally right in the hole 611 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 9: Round three at the Open Championship, and Scottie Scheffler continues 612 00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,000 Speaker 9: to be in command. 613 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:41,440 Speaker 4: Boll down. 614 00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 10: Scotty's giving it one final look from behind and steps 615 00:32:44,880 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 10: into it, grips it in the claw position, put it 616 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:49,040 Speaker 10: back and through ball on the way. 617 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: Paul just rams it into the back of the hole. 618 00:32:51,360 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: What a beautiful too for Scotty. Staffler extends the lead 619 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: to fall. 620 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,480 Speaker 9: So Scheffler four under through seventeen holes and round three 621 00:32:59,600 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 9: fourteen under par overall for the tournament. So he's got 622 00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 9: a four shot lead over Lee how Tong. Right now, now, 623 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 9: jonas as we as we look at some of the 624 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,600 Speaker 9: other people who are in contention, I have a theorem. 625 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 9: These British commentators really go extra nuts. I mean they 626 00:33:18,040 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 9: take it to another level. Whenever a UK golfer does 627 00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:25,640 Speaker 9: something good. That's my that's my theory. So I'm gonna 628 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:28,520 Speaker 9: play you a shot made today by Rory mclory at 629 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 9: a great round He shot a five hunder sixty six 630 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 9: to pull to within six shots of the lead at 631 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 9: fourteen under par overall. 632 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 2: Listen, this is for eagle three. 633 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 11: It's on its way. 634 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,200 Speaker 5: Come on, Rory, Come on, Rory, keep going, keep going, 635 00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 5: keep going. 636 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 4: Let's go. 637 00:33:42,680 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 11: It's coming over the ridge.

Definitely, he says, all around now, 661 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 14: So Hatten thrust himself rut up into the freight. 662 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:07,880 Speaker 2: Your thoughts again. 663 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:09,320 Speaker 1: Well, I mean the last part of that got a 664 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:10,000 Speaker 1: little erotic. 665 00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:10,920 Speaker 2: What do you mean by that? 666 00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: But though I just you know, thrusting is what that's 667 00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 1: totally unnecessary. Nobody's ever used that on a golf course. 668 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 13: But Hatten thrust himself rut up into the right again, 669 00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:23,520 Speaker 13: you know, like this all this is the theme of 670 00:35:23,520 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 13: the show. 671 00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 1: Everything makes sense, It all lines up perfectly. So maybe 672 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,640 Speaker 1: he was you know, maybe that was the guy the 673 00:35:28,719 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: DJ at Tutsi's cabaret when Lloyd Howe walked in. 674 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 13: So Hatton thrusts himself rut up into the freight, everything 675 00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:37,600 Speaker 13: does come full circle. 676 00:35:37,840 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: He was trying to say, how he said Hatton instead 677 00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,799 Speaker 1: easy mistake. But those are blatant homers and you could 678 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:46,360 Speaker 1: even hear on the first one. You could see the 679 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: part where he kind of leans over, like really rooting 680 00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:50,839 Speaker 1: for it to get in. And I swear to God, 681 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 1: I do that with my son at golf and stuff. 682 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:55,799 Speaker 1: I swear to God like, I'm like, oh that might 683 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 1: go in. This is ridiculous, because you gotta do something 684 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:02,239 Speaker 1: about this. I though you're inspected broadcaster me, I mean 685 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:05,440 Speaker 1: not after today's show, but you were respected broadcaster.

And you can argue, 820 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,359 Speaker 1: you know who's the greatest boxer of all time, you 821 00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:07,759 Speaker 1: can't argue with the fact that Manny Pakiav's got one 822 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,040 Speaker 1: of the great resumes we've ever seen in the sport 823 00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 1: to be able to do what he's done against the 824 00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:14,399 Speaker 1: fighter he's fighters he's fought, and you can go win 825 00:42:14,480 --> 00:42:16,760 Speaker 1: loss record and look at all the losses if you want, 826 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,399 Speaker 1: or you can look at the fact that that guy 827 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 1: climbed up as many weight classes as he did, figured 828 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 1: out a way to keep his power as a lighterweight 829 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,359 Speaker 1: fighter and finish guys that were much bigger than him 830 00:42:26,360 --> 00:42:29,040 Speaker 1: throughout the course of his career. We know what happened 831 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 1: in the Floyd Mayweather fight. He had a little bit 832 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,840 Speaker 1: of a shoulder issue going into that fight and was 833 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: a little bit compromised. But nonetheless, it is quite the 834 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: vibe here. The Pacquia fans are out in full force 835 00:42:42,800 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 1: the places. As I mentioned, earlier picking up momentum. We've 836 00:42:47,239 --> 00:42:49,399 Speaker 1: got a build. You can feel it in the air. 837 00:42:49,480 --> 00:42:51,640 Speaker 1: It is palpable. And the other thing that you can 838 00:42:51,680 --> 00:42:54,640 Speaker 1: feel in the air here out in Las Vegas. First 839 00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,600 Speaker 1: of all, anybody who goes to Vegas, you know that 840 00:42:57,760 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 1: every time you come back they're building something else. Every 841 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,720 Speaker 1: time you come back, there's something new that's being built. 842 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 1: They've got a seemingly endless land to build upon. They've 843 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 1: got all of these things that they're trying to put together. 844 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:12,720 Speaker 1: And on top of it, they're trying to put together 845 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,439 Speaker 1: a baseball stadium. Drove by that as they were coming 846 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 1: as we were coming into the hotel landing yesterday in 847 00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. So you've got the baseball stadium that they're building. 848 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,479 Speaker 1: The A's are going to be moving here. Whatever they're called, 849 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,880 Speaker 1: the Sacramento, the Athletics, whatever they're determining their name is 850 00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: going to be. You've got that happening. You've got the 851 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,560 Speaker 1: Raiders here, You've got the Golden Knights. One thing that 852 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:39,000 Speaker 1: you notice about Las Vegas, for all the talk and 853 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:41,239 Speaker 1: all those years to where people looked at Vegas and 854 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 1: they said, well, you know it's a boxing town, or well, 855 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,920 Speaker 1: it's an MMA town, or well it's people go there 856 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: to gamble, or people go there for the pools. Man 857 00:43:51,160 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: sports has taken over out here, it is slowly starting 858 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,800 Speaker 1: to take over, and it's no longer just a place 859 00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,600 Speaker 1: where you go for parties. It's no longer just I mean, listen, 860 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:05,839 Speaker 1: if you do. I can't recommend it enough that there's 861 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: plenty out here to do. If that's something you want 862 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 1: to take a bite out of, maybe Lloyd Howe, the 863 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 1: former NFLPA executive director, is going to stop by here 864 00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: after he gets done with Tutsi's cabaret, if he's still 865 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,719 Speaker 1: expensing that out to the league. But nonetheless, it used 866 00:44:19,760 --> 00:44:22,040 Speaker 1: to be that you would come to Vegas and it 867 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,879 Speaker 1: would be, well, you're going out there for some fun, 868 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 1: maybe you'll gamble a little bit, maybe you'll do some shopping, etc. Etc. 869 00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:33,240 Speaker 1: And now you're seeing, much like what boxing started years ago, 870 00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 1: you're seeing major sporting events and major sports want to 871 00:44:38,800 --> 00:44:41,960 Speaker 1: do it all in Las Vegas. You saw the Super 872 00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 1: Bowl here a couple of years ago, and I can 873 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,920 Speaker 1: tell you from somebody who's been to many Super Bowls 874 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 1: at this point in my career, in my time at 875 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:53,799 Speaker 1: Fox Sports Radio, everything was in close proximity. You could 876 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,960 Speaker 1: get to where you needed to go. The layout was easy. 877 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 1: You go to some places like the super is going 878 00:45:00,560 --> 00:45:02,680 Speaker 1: to be back in the Bay Area coming up next year. 879 00:45:02,800 --> 00:45:04,560 Speaker 1: And I can tell you from the first time around, 880 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 1: back in twenty sixteen, there were people complaining about the 881 00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: fact that you had to take a media shuttle forty 882 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:12,920 Speaker 1: five minutes away to go interview some of the players 883 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:16,359 Speaker 1: from where the media center in Radio Row was. So 884 00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:19,839 Speaker 1: for all the discussion about what Vegas was and the 885 00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,680 Speaker 1: reputation Vegas has, I think it's changed. I think people 886 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 1: are starting to view this as a great setup for sports, 887 00:45:27,920 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 1: for sporting events. WrestleMania is coming back here for a 888 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,600 Speaker 1: second year in a row. They don't do that. That's 889 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,840 Speaker 1: not what they That's one of the biggest events anywhere. 890 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,800 Speaker 1: They don't do that. They drew one hundred and thirty 891 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:44,440 Speaker 1: thousand people on a two day span at Allegian Stadium 892 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:48,359 Speaker 1: where the Raiders play for WrestleMania, and they're coming back 893 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:51,720 Speaker 1: here for another year next year. Because of how easy 894 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:55,239 Speaker 1: it was, how successful it was. The Super Bowl is 895 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,320 Speaker 1: going to be back here again and again and again. 896 00:45:58,760 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 1: You're seeing pakiaw bar coming up later on tonight. You've 897 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: got all of these big events and they're all happening 898 00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 1: here in Las Vegas, because I think people recognize for 899 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: whatever you think about Vegas, for whatever you think about, 900 00:46:11,239 --> 00:46:14,560 Speaker 1: you know, the Las Vegas you grew up with, and look, 901 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 1: I'm somebody who would come out here. When I was 902 00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:19,799 Speaker 1: twenty one years old living in southern California, you could 903 00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 1: drive to Vegas, right, You could drive to Vegas. It 904 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:25,800 Speaker 1: was like a four hour drive. And I can remember 905 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,120 Speaker 1: driving out to Vegas and the thought was, well, you 906 00:46:28,160 --> 00:46:29,960 Speaker 1: take a little bit of cash, we'll go to the pools, 907 00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 1: we'll party a little bit, and then we'll gamble. And 908 00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:34,359 Speaker 1: that was it. Nobody thought, hey, let's go out there. 909 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,800 Speaker 1: Maybe you'll get to see WrestleMania. They had one event 910 00:46:36,840 --> 00:46:39,720 Speaker 1: at Caesar's Palace years ago and it had never been back, 911 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 1: and now they're coming back two years in a row. 912 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,040 Speaker 1: Manny Paciow comes back to fight. Why do you think 913 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:47,399 Speaker 1: he's fighting in Vegas? This is the capital, but it's 914 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,520 Speaker 1: no longer just the fight capital. When you think about 915 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:53,480 Speaker 1: Las Vegas, you think about everything that comes along with 916 00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 1: it from a sports standpoint, and they are growing and 917 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,440 Speaker 1: they're expanding it, and I got news for you based 918 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:01,240 Speaker 1: on the location, and however they get the design figured 919 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 1: out when the A's come here. If you don't think 920 00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:05,920 Speaker 1: that's going to be a destination or a tourist attraction 921 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,440 Speaker 1: for people, you were out of your mind, much like 922 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,279 Speaker 1: the Raiders were. There were a lot of Raider fans 923 00:47:11,320 --> 00:47:14,080 Speaker 1: who were bummed that they left the Bay Area, but 924 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:15,839 Speaker 1: there were a lot of Raider fans. And if we're 925 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 1: gonna be honest about this, in my opinion, the largest 926 00:47:20,320 --> 00:47:24,120 Speaker 1: NFL fan base in Southern California are the Raiders. You 927 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:26,399 Speaker 1: could say whatever you want about the Rams, you could 928 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:28,960 Speaker 1: say whatever you want about the Chargers, you can say 929 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 1: whatever you want about the Cowboys, and the largest fan 930 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,240 Speaker 1: base from an NFL standpoint in Southern California is the Raiders. 931 00:47:35,680 --> 00:47:38,399 Speaker 1: And when people found out the Raiders were going to Vegas, yeah, 932 00:47:38,440 --> 00:47:40,280 Speaker 1: you had some people that were like, man, that sucks 933 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 1: for the people in the Bay Area. That sucks for 934 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,200 Speaker 1: that fan base that's been through a lot to see 935 00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 1: him leave and then to see him come back and 936 00:47:46,640 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: then end up leaving again because they play in an 937 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,359 Speaker 1: outhouse for a stadium that they won't renovate or get 938 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 1: done because they can't get the funding for it. But 939 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 1: when you see and you bond hearing the news, Oh 940 00:47:56,480 --> 00:47:58,520 Speaker 1: but they're going to Vegas, and then you get out 941 00:47:58,520 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: here and you see the way they've part of them. 942 00:48:00,920 --> 00:48:03,440 Speaker 1: You see the way the city has supported the Golden Knights. 943 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 1: It's not the same Vegas it used to be. It 944 00:48:07,120 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: just isn't. And it's not the Vegas where you go 945 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,560 Speaker 1: to have a rager and party and like this place, 946 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 1: I mean, for lack of a better term, it almost 947 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,160 Speaker 1: feels like it's matured to where it's no longer just 948 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:21,160 Speaker 1: some some booze bin party house where you go to 949 00:48:21,200 --> 00:48:24,799 Speaker 1: gamble and blow your your kids tuition and you know, 950 00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,600 Speaker 1: maybe a fool around with Lloyd hal or whoever else 951 00:48:27,719 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: is out here to try and to you know, get 952 00:48:29,160 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 1: your rocks off, so to speak.

Why do people do that? 1036 00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 4: No, it's proper. 1037 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:39,040 Speaker 10: It's just it's it's it's proper etiquette on calling people 1038 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:42,799 Speaker 10: former champion. Right at the end of the day, the 1039 00:52:42,840 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 10: people wants a champ, always a champ.

But take 1067 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:06,640 Speaker 1: us into what today the day of a fight, just 1068 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:10,120 Speaker 1: hours before you get in there to throw down with somebody. 1069 00:54:10,239 --> 00:54:12,640 Speaker 1: Take us into what today is like for you as 1070 00:54:12,640 --> 00:54:15,040 Speaker 1: a fighter as you approach this event coming up later 1071 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 1: on tonight. 1072 00:54:16,719 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 10: I mean, it's just that moment, right, It's everything that 1073 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,600 Speaker 10: you were just talking about. You know, there was all 1074 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:26,879 Speaker 10: the training camp, all the preparation, but what about the childhood, 1075 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,960 Speaker 10: what about all the days in the gym that showed 1076 00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:37,200 Speaker 10: zero rewards? You know, And so this moment is for 1077 00:54:37,320 --> 00:54:40,279 Speaker 10: us fighters. This moment is what I could like to 1078 00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 10: call living the dream, you know. And there's a lot 1079 00:54:44,680 --> 00:54:45,320 Speaker 10: on the line. 1080 00:54:45,760 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 4: You know. 1081 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 10: Mario Barrios, after losing to Tank Davis and myself, has 1082 00:54:51,480 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 10: been able to re establish himself as champion and had 1083 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 10: some good performances, had a tough outgoing his last fight, 1084 00:54:59,040 --> 00:55:01,680 Speaker 10: you know, some knockdown and he knocked the other guy down, 1085 00:55:01,800 --> 00:55:04,759 Speaker 10: ended up being a draw, and so here he is 1086 00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,719 Speaker 10: with a once in a lifetime opportunity to fight the 1087 00:55:07,800 --> 00:55:11,440 Speaker 10: legendary Many Pacquiao. And I was in the same boat 1088 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,880 Speaker 10: in twenty nineteen when I was the undefeated champion of 1089 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:19,719 Speaker 10: the world. And it's cool to fight legends, but it's 1090 00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:23,400 Speaker 10: cooler to walk away beating legends, you know. So for 1091 00:55:23,520 --> 00:55:26,360 Speaker 10: Mario Barrios, this moment just has to be a dream 1092 00:55:26,360 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 10: come true. 1093 00:55:27,120 --> 00:55:28,720 Speaker 4: You know, people are gonna say, oh, if. 1094 00:55:28,600 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 10: He wins, oh he beat a forty six year old 1095 00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:33,839 Speaker 10: Manny Pacquiao. But there's a difference in being in the 1096 00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,760 Speaker 10: history books to somebody who fought Many Pakiao and somebody 1097 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 10: who beat Many pak Yao. 1098 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:41,320 Speaker 4: And I think that's gotta be weighing on his mind. Tonight. 1099 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:45,320 Speaker 1: Keith Thurman joining us here on Fox Sports Radio.

You know, it's like when I'm when 1115 00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:38,480 Speaker 10: I'm sitting backstage and I'm waiting and waiting. 1116 00:56:38,280 --> 00:56:40,480 Speaker 4: And then eventually they're gonna wrap our hands. 1117 00:56:40,760 --> 00:56:43,080 Speaker 10: Then eventually you're gonna start warming up, and then you're 1118 00:56:43,080 --> 00:56:45,600 Speaker 10: gonna put your gloves on and you're gonna start doing mitwork. 1119 00:56:45,920 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 10: And there's just this slow build up.

There's this nice slow build up. 1121 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,680 Speaker 10: But the moment you get back in the dungeon, you know, 1122 00:56:56,760 --> 00:57:02,839 Speaker 10: it's like you're you're a trapped animal. And then eventually 1123 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 10: they're gonna let you out of the cage. And when 1124 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 10: you get out of the cage, you're gonna do that 1125 00:57:06,719 --> 00:57:09,799 Speaker 10: ring walk that the fans get to enjoy, the build up, 1126 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:13,240 Speaker 10: the anticipation, the last final moments before the fighters really 1127 00:57:13,280 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 10: get into the ring, and so it's really fighters just 1128 00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:21,480 Speaker 10: have Every fighter has their own process when it comes 1129 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:25,000 Speaker 10: to these stages that I'm talking about, but they're so 1130 00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:30,920 Speaker 10: crucial because backstage you can be anxious, you can be nervous, 1131 00:57:31,440 --> 00:57:35,200 Speaker 10: you can be excited, you can be amped, you know, 1132 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:41,280 Speaker 10: and you can be mentally preparing, physically preparing.

But when you bring up 1235 01:03:10,680 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 10: this topic, the first thing that popped in my mind 1236 01:03:13,600 --> 01:03:16,480 Speaker 10: was the other guys, the other fighters. 1237 01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:17,880 Speaker 4: The guy who's. 1238 01:03:17,640 --> 01:03:22,440 Speaker 10: Got twenty five fights, you know, with with half of 1239 01:03:22,480 --> 01:03:25,160 Speaker 10: them being losses, and he's looking for his next fight. 1240 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:28,720 Speaker 10: You know, I fought a guy earlier on in my career. 1241 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 10: He was like twenty six wins, twenty four losses, you know, 1242 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 10: a very active fighter, you know. And at the time 1243 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:36,520 Speaker 10: I was younger and he kind of was a little 1244 01:03:36,520 --> 01:03:38,880 Speaker 10: bit more of a veteran, you know, but a very 1245 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:41,920 Speaker 10: active fighter, you know. But his whole career is like 1246 01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 10: fifty to fifty, you know. But they don't stop, and 1247 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:50,640 Speaker 10: they're people that you'll never know, and to me, they 1248 01:03:50,680 --> 01:03:54,080 Speaker 10: deserve just as much respect as anybody because of how 1249 01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:56,760 Speaker 10: difficult the process that you just mentioned, the weight cut, 1250 01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 10: that this the putting yourself out there and just stepping 1251 01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 10: in the ring, and then you know you're not the 1252 01:04:02,040 --> 01:04:05,200 Speaker 10: best fighter, but you have the passion of a fighter, 1253 01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:07,880 Speaker 10: so you keep staying in the realm of boxing. Though 1254 01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:09,919 Speaker 10: you're never gonna be in the top ten. You're never 1255 01:04:09,920 --> 01:04:12,040 Speaker 10: gonna you know, you get to make some side money. 1256 01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:14,600 Speaker 10: Most of them have a day job, and then they 1257 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:18,040 Speaker 10: get to make some side good paychecks and live their 1258 01:04:18,080 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 10: life and get a portion of this dream, though they 1259 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 10: don't get the ultimate success of the dream of being 1260 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:27,960 Speaker 10: a world champion. And that's why, you know, no matter 1261 01:04:28,000 --> 01:04:31,240 Speaker 10: how much I'd talk my talk, I walk my walk, 1262 01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 10: there's a deep inside of me. I know, I respect 1263 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:37,240 Speaker 10: every human being that steps into. 1264 01:04:37,120 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 1: The Oh you have to. I mean, listen, my Uber 1265 01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 1: driver yesterday is a professional MMA fighter but has to 1266 01:04:44,240 --> 01:04:48,800 Speaker 1: drive Uber because early on in their career and just 1267 01:04:48,840 --> 01:04:51,600 Speaker 1: had to fight canceled. That's a payday. That's a payday, 1268 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 1: so had to pick up extra Uber shifts just to 1269 01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:57,479 Speaker 1: pay the bills. And I think that doesn't get talked about, 1270 01:04:57,520 --> 01:04:59,440 Speaker 1: like you see that the top of the top. But 1271 01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:03,120 Speaker 1: to your point, it's those undercrud. Like man, I remember 1272 01:05:03,160 --> 01:05:08,480 Speaker 1: going to a fight at Hollywood Park Casino back in 1273 01:05:08,640 --> 01:05:11,919 Speaker 1: LA and I remember the undercard were like these four 1274 01:05:12,000 --> 01:05:14,560 Speaker 1: round fights, which sometimes those guys are looking to make 1275 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 1: a name for themselves. And I saw a guy come 1276 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 1: out in a prison outfit, like a prison jumpsuit, just 1277 01:05:19,520 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 1: to try and get some attention, make a name for himselves. 1278 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,680 Speaker 1: And you look at that and go, oh, it's a spectacle. No, 1279 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,040 Speaker 1: he's trying to pay his bills. He's trying to get known, 1280 01:05:26,240 --> 01:05:28,840 Speaker 1: get seen. He's fighting a four rounder. Then you upgrade 1281 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:30,160 Speaker 1: to a six or an eight, and then you're on 1282 01:05:30,240 --> 01:05:32,520 Speaker 1: a ten round fight. Journey's crazy not. 1283 01:05:32,600 --> 01:05:36,760 Speaker 10: Even started training till he already was in prison. Bernard 1284 01:05:36,760 --> 01:05:39,480 Speaker 10: Hopkins learned how to box in prison. He had his 1285 01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,680 Speaker 10: first fight, his first professional fight in prison. This is 1286 01:05:42,720 --> 01:05:45,960 Speaker 10: a true story of Bernard Hopkins, the former world champion. 1287 01:05:46,320 --> 01:05:49,280 Speaker 1: That's crazy, Yeah, it's it's a mad respect to you 1288 01:05:49,320 --> 01:05:51,520 Speaker 1: guys and what you go through.

I want to start with Many Pakiow first. 1296 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,800 Speaker 1: What impressed you the most about your fight with Many 1297 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:20,680 Speaker 1: Pakiaw oneted the all time greats. 1298 01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 10: It was that he really it was a great year 1299 01:06:24,280 --> 01:06:28,200 Speaker 10: for pakia You know what people forget about twenty nineteen 1300 01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:31,240 Speaker 10: was how active Many Pakiaw was. You know, he fought 1301 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:34,720 Speaker 10: Matisa that year, he fought Adrian Broner and then he 1302 01:06:34,760 --> 01:06:37,560 Speaker 10: fought Keith Thurman. So I believe he had three fights 1303 01:06:37,600 --> 01:06:41,400 Speaker 10: within somewhere from a twelve to fourteen month window. So 1304 01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:43,680 Speaker 10: he was very active. Yes he was forty years old, 1305 01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:47,160 Speaker 10: but he was highly active. And I because of that, 1306 01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:50,440 Speaker 10: I got to get a phenomenal Mani patio on the ring, 1307 01:06:50,600 --> 01:06:53,040 Speaker 10: the way that he trained, the way that he prepared 1308 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:56,480 Speaker 10: for the for the fight, and what surprised me the 1309 01:06:56,520 --> 01:07:00,720 Speaker 10: most was, of course, was the handspeed. Hand speed was 1310 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:05,520 Speaker 10: really great, and it was the combo choices, the mix up. 1311 01:07:05,760 --> 01:07:08,480 Speaker 4: The mix up was phenomenal. I loved it, even though 1312 01:07:08,520 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 4: I'm the one getting hit by it. 1313 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:14,160 Speaker 10: It's that bitter it's that bitter sweet, like okay, many, 1314 01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:14,640 Speaker 10: I'll see you. 1315 01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:16,480 Speaker 4: I got you, baby, Okay, are you coming in with 1316 01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 4: the poop? 1317 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:17,920 Speaker 1: Okay? 1318 01:07:18,200 --> 01:07:20,800 Speaker 10: And you know I'm talking about live action. I mean 1319 01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,440 Speaker 10: everything besides my hand being raised at the end of 1320 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:27,920 Speaker 10: the twelve rounds was legitimately the dream of a lifetime. 1321 01:07:27,920 --> 01:07:30,680 Speaker 10: It's what I've always wanted, It's what I It's what 1322 01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:32,880 Speaker 10: I did, what I did all my sitters, for my 1323 01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:35,960 Speaker 10: push ups, for my pull ups, for running, for sparring 1324 01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:38,040 Speaker 10: for It's what I've lived this life for. 1325 01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:39,280 Speaker 1: Was for that. 1326 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 10: Moment in twenty nineteen, and to just share the ring 1327 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,280 Speaker 10: with a legend and to have that type of performance, 1328 01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:51,000 Speaker 10: to go back and forth, back and forth. But his 1329 01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:56,440 Speaker 10: his footwork, the combination choices, the handspeed, like he's so small. 1330 01:07:56,880 --> 01:07:59,120 Speaker 4: Once he ducked, he like disappeared. 1331 01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:01,160 Speaker 1: I'm like, where you go? You know where to talk? 1332 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:03,560 Speaker 10: Like this batman, I'm like, oh, I'm like, dang, he's 1333 01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 10: down by my kneecaps. 1334 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:06,120 Speaker 4: So I'm like, should I hit him with my knee? 1335 01:08:06,160 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 4: Should get him left hook with my knee? 1336 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:07,840 Speaker 1: Cap? 1337 01:08:07,880 --> 01:08:09,960 Speaker 10: I don't got to punch for that. He was you know, 1338 01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:15,160 Speaker 10: it was, it just was. It was beautiful to share 1339 01:08:15,200 --> 01:08:15,560 Speaker 10: the ring. 1340 01:08:15,680 --> 01:08:17,599 Speaker 1: You know, when you. 1341 01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:20,439 Speaker 10: When you're in a fight, when you most of the 1342 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:24,080 Speaker 10: time when you fight these fighters on average, at this level, 1343 01:08:24,240 --> 01:08:27,040 Speaker 10: you've it's very rare that you're gonna fight somebody that 1344 01:08:27,080 --> 01:08:30,360 Speaker 10: you've trained with. It happened. It happens. You've trained early 1345 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 10: on with some great fighters and this and that, and 1346 01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:34,719 Speaker 10: later on you end up in competition with them. That's 1347 01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 10: back in my my fight twenty sixteen with Sean Porter. 1348 01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:40,640 Speaker 10: We trained together on several different occasions and then we 1349 01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,280 Speaker 10: had a world title fight together. But outside of that, 1350 01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:48,160 Speaker 10: it's rarely ever happened. So you have to fight this man, 1351 01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:50,519 Speaker 10: and you really don't know what it's like to be 1352 01:08:50,600 --> 01:08:53,080 Speaker 10: in the ring with them. You just see everything from 1353 01:08:53,120 --> 01:08:57,120 Speaker 10: the outside, you know, So I mean it was, it 1354 01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,000 Speaker 10: just was everything that I wanted it to be. 1355 01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:02,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you you mentioned the speed. I remember when 1356 01:09:02,040 --> 01:09:04,679 Speaker 1: he came up and wait to fight David Diaz, and 1357 01:09:05,120 --> 01:09:09,200 Speaker 1: I remember Diez saying afterwards, I can handle the power. Yes, 1358 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:12,439 Speaker 1: he said, at one point, I thought Freddy was hitting me. 1359 01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:15,120 Speaker 1: Talking about Freddy Roach, that was because he goes because 1360 01:09:15,120 --> 01:09:17,800 Speaker 1: Manny threw so fast, and he was in and out 1361 01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 1: so quick that you just and look. For the longest time, 1362 01:09:21,240 --> 01:09:22,880 Speaker 1: Pakia was known as a guy who just had a 1363 01:09:22,960 --> 01:09:25,360 Speaker 1: left hand. He's got a real hard left hand, and 1364 01:09:25,360 --> 01:09:27,960 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden he started working that right 1365 01:09:28,160 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 1: and Freddy got him to a point. Freddie Roach got 1366 01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:31,599 Speaker 1: him to a point to where, oh, like, he's a 1367 01:09:31,680 --> 01:09:34,679 Speaker 1: really good boxer. His defense got better. But that speed 1368 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:37,040 Speaker 1: has got to be hell to have to deal with 1369 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:40,000 Speaker 1: as a fighter. And I would imagine, you know, knowing 1370 01:09:40,240 --> 01:09:44,120 Speaker 1: you also fighting Mario Barrios. Where is Barrios dangerous because 1371 01:09:44,280 --> 01:09:47,519 Speaker 1: you beat him, but as you mentioned, he has bounced 1372 01:09:47,520 --> 01:09:49,720 Speaker 1: back and now he gets the opportunity that you had 1373 01:09:49,760 --> 01:09:52,519 Speaker 1: to fight a legend like Manny Pacio coming off you know, 1374 01:09:52,600 --> 01:09:56,240 Speaker 1: all this time off in retirement, a couple of exhibition bouts. 1375 01:09:56,600 --> 01:09:59,519 Speaker 1: Where is Mario Barrios dangerous to many Pacio here? 1376 01:10:00,520 --> 01:10:05,479 Speaker 10: I mean the first thing is similarly to what helped 1377 01:10:05,479 --> 01:10:09,000 Speaker 10: Packy on twenty nineteen. You just mentioned Mario Barrios has 1378 01:10:09,040 --> 01:10:12,040 Speaker 10: been active, Many Pakya has been inactive. 1379 01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:14,680 Speaker 4: That's already favoring Barrios. 1380 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,040 Speaker 10: And I got some insight from the fight people this 1381 01:10:18,040 --> 01:10:22,599 Speaker 10: this week with Fight Week that Brios's last performance, which 1382 01:10:22,680 --> 01:10:26,480 Speaker 10: ended up into a draw, the training camp was not what. 1383 01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:29,439 Speaker 4: It needed to be. It was not ideal for him 1384 01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:30,320 Speaker 4: and his team. 1385 01:10:30,640 --> 01:10:33,479 Speaker 10: And they're saying that he's having the best training camp 1386 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:37,439 Speaker 10: of his life, you know, And I think that's because 1387 01:10:37,479 --> 01:10:41,320 Speaker 10: you know, when you see the consequences of the. 1388 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:43,960 Speaker 1: Lack of preparation wall, it's a wake up call. 1389 01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 10: Whether it's you get, you win, you lose, or you 1390 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:48,200 Speaker 10: have a draw, which in his case it was a 1391 01:10:48,280 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 10: draw performance. 1392 01:10:49,479 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 4: You know, but is that what you you. 1393 01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:54,760 Speaker 10: Want to You'll start not really losing fans, but your 1394 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:57,479 Speaker 10: name's not going to grow if you're getting draws here, 1395 01:10:57,680 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 10: draws there. No champions need to win, right, Champions need 1396 01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 10: to win and so I know that their team has 1397 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:07,720 Speaker 10: trained really hard for this in preparation for going for 1398 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:09,960 Speaker 10: that wind. Now a lot of people are saying, what 1399 01:11:10,080 --> 01:11:13,200 Speaker 10: is Mario Barris's strength? The problem is I didn't let 1400 01:11:13,240 --> 01:11:17,320 Speaker 10: him show me any of his strength, you know, the 1401 01:11:17,320 --> 01:11:20,160 Speaker 10: way that I boxed them. You know, I just try 1402 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:23,560 Speaker 10: to neutralize anything he was bringing to the table with 1403 01:11:23,760 --> 01:11:27,960 Speaker 10: my footwork. And I noticed that my footwork was really 1404 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:31,200 Speaker 10: an obstacle for him in the fight, which if Pakal 1405 01:11:31,320 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 10: does have his feet under him, that could be a 1406 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:36,280 Speaker 10: key to victory for Manny Pakialf. My footwork gave Mario 1407 01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:39,679 Speaker 10: Barrio's problems. Pack Yow's footwork can give Mario Barrio's problems. 1408 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:43,000 Speaker 10: But I do remember talking after the fight. The only 1409 01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:44,880 Speaker 10: thing that stuck in my head, and it was so 1410 01:11:45,120 --> 01:11:49,960 Speaker 10: ironic because no other champion has ever made me acknowledge this. 1411 01:11:50,479 --> 01:11:53,960 Speaker 4: It was his jab. He had a really solid job. 1412 01:11:54,080 --> 01:11:57,720 Speaker 10: I was impressed because I grew up with Ronald Winky Wright, 1413 01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:01,439 Speaker 10: who beat Shane Moseley twice, made Tino Trinidad look like 1414 01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:02,120 Speaker 10: a bibble. 1415 01:12:01,920 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 1: One of the most underrated fighters of all time. Wiki 1416 01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:04,400 Speaker 1: right the. 1417 01:12:04,479 --> 01:12:08,120 Speaker 10: Defense and that jab and I have not for many 1418 01:12:08,280 --> 01:12:10,840 Speaker 10: years and I've never in my professional career have I 1419 01:12:10,960 --> 01:12:13,160 Speaker 10: been in the ring where I'm like, I have to 1420 01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:17,880 Speaker 10: acknowledge this person's jab. And it was Mario Barrios. You know, 1421 01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,599 Speaker 10: of course the jab is not the most devastating punch, 1422 01:12:20,800 --> 01:12:22,280 Speaker 10: but it's a punch that it's. 1423 01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:24,360 Speaker 4: A tool, and you need tools. 1424 01:12:24,520 --> 01:12:27,360 Speaker 10: You know, when you're doing a job, when you're a handyman, 1425 01:12:27,479 --> 01:12:29,479 Speaker 10: you need to bring your tools. Babe, bring the whole 1426 01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 10: tool set just in case, you know, and so you 1427 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:34,760 Speaker 10: know you might only need one or two, but they 1428 01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:37,680 Speaker 10: bring the whole set. And Mario Barrios, I think that 1429 01:12:38,000 --> 01:12:41,400 Speaker 10: jab with his longer reach of Manny Pacquiao, Manny Pacow 1430 01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:44,800 Speaker 10: being forty six years old, make Manny Pacyow use his legs. 1431 01:12:44,840 --> 01:12:46,840 Speaker 10: He's been off. Those legs might not be what they 1432 01:12:46,960 --> 01:12:50,280 Speaker 10: once were. Let's find out. Make him use those legs. 1433 01:12:50,320 --> 01:12:55,000 Speaker 10: Stay on the outside, work that jab. And ironically, there 1434 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:58,519 Speaker 10: was a moment in my fight finally he came through 1435 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:02,320 Speaker 10: Mario Barrio set. He came through and he winged a 1436 01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:05,760 Speaker 10: shot at me and I pretty much saw all the 1437 01:13:05,800 --> 01:13:08,880 Speaker 10: shots coming except for this one boom down to the 1438 01:13:09,000 --> 01:13:12,240 Speaker 10: body and he maybe get on my bike. I winced 1439 01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:15,040 Speaker 10: and I had to get on my bicycle, and so 1440 01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:18,959 Speaker 10: I did get to feel Barrios's power on the inside 1441 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:22,519 Speaker 10: at one occasion. He does have that long reach, but 1442 01:13:22,800 --> 01:13:25,600 Speaker 10: he didn't he wasn't able to establish his power and 1443 01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 10: his combinations against me from the outside. I was actually 1444 01:13:28,960 --> 01:13:32,600 Speaker 10: dominating him from the outside. But the one moment that 1445 01:13:32,960 --> 01:13:36,080 Speaker 10: he got one time, one good time, it was from 1446 01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:38,720 Speaker 10: a body shot on the inside, you know, And I 1447 01:13:38,840 --> 01:13:42,000 Speaker 10: do know him being a Latino fighter, Mexican based fighter, 1448 01:13:42,240 --> 01:13:44,639 Speaker 10: he has the habit of trading it up and mixing 1449 01:13:44,720 --> 01:13:47,599 Speaker 10: it up. And you know, Madning Packyll, being forty six 1450 01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:50,280 Speaker 10: years old, it doesn't hurt to go to the body. 1451 01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:53,000 Speaker 10: Go to the body.
