17
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: feedback from last episode. Are you or are you not

18
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:24,440
Speaker 1: on the verge of a breakdown?

19
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 2: I am not on the verge of a breakdown.

20
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:30,319
Speaker 1: I'm good, Okay, okay, that's great to hear. All right,

21
00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you know you've had time to think about

22
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: it now though, Like which MMA fighter today really inspires you?

23
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: That's what the people want to know.

24
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 5: Luke, I got this question, got brought up yesterday in

25
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 5: my life chat, and I, you know, to help answer.

26
00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 5: I guess, you know, because apparently you know, there is

27
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 5: some dissension in the ranks about the nature of the

28
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 5: answer that I gave, which you know I explained more

29
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 5: on my life chat. But I said, you know, there's

30
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 5: plenty of guys who are you know, far better people

31
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 5: than me. I think, you know, Max Holloway is to

32
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,720
Speaker 5: see what he's become as a father and person, that's great,

33
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:03,600
Speaker 5: Dustin Poirier, It's ability to get back to his community.

34
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,000
Speaker 5: These are all wonderful things. So that's not really my issue.

35
00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 5: But you know, we don't have to relitigate this doing

36
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 5: all right.

37
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,600
Speaker 1: I was just willing to tell you I admire Brian

38
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 1: or take Hiss dating history very very very much. All right.

39
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,239
Speaker 1: So there's also that, Hey, it's gonna be a fun

41
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: we're gonna dead wrong ourselves, and we're gonna set the

42
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: stage for this weekend. We got Misfits boxing, We've got

Speaker 1: in the main event super fight, and uh we also

45
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 1: got some Jay Aaron kickback. So if you may recall,

46
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:42,839
Speaker 1: on on the last episode, we played a little over

47
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: under and I challenged Luke Thomas with the idea that

48
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,679
Speaker 1: this middle age donk Right, the former MK producer of

49

Speaker 1: the inauguralar one Jay Aaron, he's in like the best

50
00:02:54,760 --> 00:02:57,480
Speaker 1: shape of his life, but can he bench one ninety?

51
00:02:57,520 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: The consentus was hell no, but LT and I received

52
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 1: an almost instant text message that said one ninety coming

53
00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,040
Speaker 1: at you now, Luke, this man is uh, you know,

54
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:14,359
Speaker 1: laughable in many ways. No, put the ship back up there,

Speaker 1: Luke?

106
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 6: I got a lot of requests from people for you

107
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 6: to do a CJI watch along, So I don't know

108
00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 6: if you're interested in that, but a lot of requests.

109
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,479
Speaker 5: I am interested in that. The problem is I don't

110
00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 5: know exactly I mean. So one thing we'll get to

111
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 5: when we talk about it is that CJI two is

112
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:49,800
Speaker 5: very different from CJI one, and so I kind of

113
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 5: don't know exactly how that would go. But I'm here's

114
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 5: what I can guarantee. I will absolutely have coverage no

115
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 5: matter what for day two, which is I don't know

116
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 5: exactly what the right way to cover it is digitally

117
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 5: for day one.

118
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 2: So that's where I'm trying to figure out.

119
00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:11,120
Speaker 5: But a watch along on Saturday and Sunday is possible.

120
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:15,480

158
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: have anything else to say? Before we dip into Dana's

159
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 1: goodie bag of big time fights?

160
00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 2: Do I do I dare to cover Misfits live?

161
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:17,480
Speaker 1: It's gonna get a lot, dude, say what we will

162
00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:20,440
Speaker 1: about Misfits and we will say it gets it gets

163
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 1: eyeballs on.

164
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 2: It, It gets freaking eyeballs.

165
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 3: I think should over Misfits.

166
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,600
Speaker 2: No, no, no, it wouldn't be. So here's the rule.

167
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 5: If I end up covering Misfits in any capacity live,

168
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 5: then there's no way I wouldn't do CJI both days?

169
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 2: Right? Does that make sense?

170
00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,359
Speaker 5: Like there's no world where I prioritize that over CJI.

171
00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 5: The question is do I triple up this weekend and

172
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,040
Speaker 5: get greedy with with Misfits coverage? I think I might

173
00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 5: do a reaction to that one.

174
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:49,600
Speaker 2: I don't know.

175
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 1: Normally, i'd say you've been eating long enough, now stop

176
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:57,960
Speaker 1: being greedy, being greedy? Yeah, yeah, yeah, f the needy.

177
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: All right, let's transition here to top Numero Uno. Hey,

178
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:06,280
Speaker 1: Dana White teased a big announcement on Thursday. We had

179
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:08,160
Speaker 1: to wait a little longer than we wanted, but it

180
00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 1: seems like it was worth the way. Did Dana White

181
00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: cook Yeah, yeah, he was cooking, fresh on the UFC

182
00:09:15,559 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: equivalent of Air Force one and fresh off a visit

183
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 1: to the White House where Dana White did say the

184
00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:24,280
Speaker 1: summer July fourth, two hundred and fiftieth anniversary of our

185
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,720
Speaker 1: country UFC event is going to happen. It is in motion.

186
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 1: Obviously there will be more on that to come in

187
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: the ensuing months, but what we got from Dana was

188
00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: big time up updates for UFC three twenty one October

189
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 1: twenty fifth in Dubai and the annual stop at MSG

190
00:09:42,520 --> 00:09:46,719
Speaker 1: come November fifteenth for UFC three twenty two. Now, look,

191
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,400
Speaker 1: the MSG news was a lot bigger, so let's get

192
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 1: into that first. Despite teases that we could see Ilia

193
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 1: versus Gaichee on that card, it's not gonna be. What

194
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 1: we will get instead is Jack Della Madelena making the

195
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:02,800
Speaker 1: first defensive as well throughweight title in the main event

196
00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: against a rising pound four pounds stalwart and former lightweight

197
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:15,760
Speaker 1: champion Islam Mahachev Bang Bang bang. Your early DraftKings odds

198
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 1: are JDM plus two hundred Mahachev minus two forty five. Luke,

199
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: we're gonna go item by item right here. But we

200
00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 1: know MSG is a major. We know there's other good

201
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 1: fights added. But how do you feel straight off the

202
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: bat of getting Islam JDM right here, right now, in

203
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:35,720
Speaker 1: just a few months.

204
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 5: This is this is how it should be done. This

205
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 5: is how it should be done. And I realize it

206
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 5: can always be done this way, fair enough, No one

207
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 5: can expect this kind of thing all the time. But

208
00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 5: this is just excellence all the way around. I mean, now,

209
00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:53,280
Speaker 5: this was not a fight that we didn't see coming.

210
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 5: We all kind of knew that there was a reason

211
00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,240
Speaker 5: to expect this, and okay, fair enough, here it is,

212
00:10:58,520 --> 00:11:00,319
Speaker 5: but we didn't exactly know when. We didn't know what

213
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,080
Speaker 5: it would be complimented by, and we didn't really know

214
00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,160
Speaker 5: the setting. Would it be in Abu Dhabi in October?

215
00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 5: And I realized that ship had kind of sailed, but

216
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,240
Speaker 5: there was at least a point in time where that

217
00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 5: was being considered. Or would they have this in Australia

218
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 5: or when would this be and woud the circumstances be

219
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,120
Speaker 5: we'll be seed. Now we have the answer. They're going

220
00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,760
Speaker 5: to the media capital of certainly the United States, arguably

221
00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 5: the world. They're going to have him Islam Matkachev, who

222
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,199
Speaker 5: it does not have a rightful claim to pound for pound,

223
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,439
Speaker 5: but only because he's been kind of inactive. I think

224
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 5: one of the interesting parts about this about is you

225
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 5: might have to reconsider his place in that BC if

226
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,560
Speaker 5: he ends up winning up a weight class against the title,

227
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 5: a guy who makes very few mistakes, who is extraordinarily

228
00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,120
Speaker 5: well rounded, who is just, you know, the excellent to me,

229
00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 5: the standard bear in many ways of excellence in MMA,

230
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 5: up against a guy in JDM who not only of

231
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,160
Speaker 5: course is the champion, but so vastly improved in what

232
00:11:45,240 --> 00:11:48,840
Speaker 5: he showed in that fight with blahah Muhammad. And I

233
00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 5: know we'll talk more about this, but is going to

234
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:54,000
Speaker 5: have more time this go round with Craig Jones, who,

235
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 5: of course we already know has had a lot of

236
00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 5: experience getting in particular Australian fighters ready for Islam Makachev

237
00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,720
Speaker 5: and so BC. What would be the argument about this

238
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 5: that you didn't like If you're an American person, you

239
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:06,720
Speaker 5: wish there was an American or whatever. If you're a Brazilian,

240
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:09,320
Speaker 5: you wish there was a Brazilian somewhere in the fight. Yeah, fine,

241
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 5: we don't have that or whatever. But if you're just

242
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:14,199
Speaker 5: a fight fan who's looking for excellence, who's looking for stakes,

243
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:17,839
Speaker 5: who's looking for setting, which I think is something that

244
00:12:17,880 --> 00:12:19,920
Speaker 5: we now appreciate more than we used to, but really

245
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,600
Speaker 5: drives home. It checks all the boxes.

246
00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:22,840
Speaker 3: BC.

247
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:25,559
Speaker 5: What an excellent fight. Love it, Love everything about it.

248
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,040
Speaker 1: We're always trying to be honest with you, even with

249
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:31,719
Speaker 1: my pending employment under the dk O banner coming up,

250
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: of when we don't like things or when things are

251
00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 1: a step behind. To me, this is a plus matchmaking.

252
00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,800
Speaker 1: It makes msg matter along with the Coleman and the

253
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:42,080
Speaker 1: other fights we're going to start to mention here. It's

254
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 1: a big deal. Isla ma Chev arguably the best fighter

255
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: in the world going for that two division champion status,

256
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:53,000
Speaker 1: just like his suddenly chief rival Ilia just recently. Did

257
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 1: I love this? And Luke, there's already been a bit

258
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,480
Speaker 1: of back and forth between the two camps, because, as

259
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 1: you mentioned, this isn't a surprise that they're fighting each other.

260
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:05,800
Speaker 1: The surprise is just when. But there's been enough of

261
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: a back and forth where I think we can bring

262
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: in our friends at Quervo for a little bit of

263
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: shots fired. Of course, now's a good time as ever

264
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:23,760
Speaker 1: to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. This is Shots Fired,

265
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 1: brought to you by the great people at Quervo. Let's

266
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:29,320
Speaker 1: first get a little bit of a quote here from

267
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 1: Islam Mahuchev manager Ali abdel Aziz, who sat down with

268
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: Dennis on Submission Radio. He said, at the end of

269
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: the day, the fight is done. I think Matt Aleno

270
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 1: will lose. He's going to be a very tough fight

271
00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:46,520
Speaker 1: for Islam, but I believe Islam have all the tools

272
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:49,559
Speaker 1: to beat him. So that's certainly one side of the equation.

273
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,600
Speaker 1: On the flip side, Submission Radio also gave us an

274
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: interview with the chief coach. Look what is Jack Dellamandalini's

275
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 1: coaches name, Mike?

276
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:59,480
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I looked it up today and now

277
00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 2: I forgot it again. I'll get it for you. I'll

278
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:01,760
Speaker 2: get it for you.

279
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:03,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well I think I got it right here.

280
00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,280
Speaker 1: Hold on, you think i'd prepare this? Just Ben Vickers?

281
00:14:06,320 --> 00:14:09,680
Speaker 1: Ben Vickers is the name. Here's Ben Vickers talking to

282
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:14,040
Speaker 1: our favorite Ukrainian Australian about what he thinks about this

283
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: match up.

284
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 5: Could you still feel that's how it's going to play

285
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 5: out come New York time.

286
00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:23,440
Speaker 8: Yeah, I just don't think Islam has the chin that

287
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 8: Baloo has. We know for a fact, if Jack clips

288
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 8: someone clean on the chin, they can go over. So

289
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 8: it could happen in the first minute, it could happen

290
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 8: in the twenty fourth minute, it could happen in the

291
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 8: twenty four minute fifty nine seconds, it could happen three

292
00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:39,360
Speaker 8: rounds in. We're not we're Jack likes long fights, you know,

293
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 8: he likes to be in there. But obviously we're not

294
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 8: getting paid for overtime, so if the opportunity arises, we're

295
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,440
Speaker 8: happy to take it. But Jack's Cardio, as we saw Blouse,

296
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:52,800
Speaker 8: reputedly the best, like Cardio in the UFC and Jack out.

297
00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:55,080
Speaker 8: Cardio in Biloo was more tired than Jack towards the

298
00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 8: end of the fight. So so you know, Jack's Cardio's exceptional,

299
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 8: his powers exceptional, And yeah, I just I like the fight,

300
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 8: I really do.

301
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 1: Now, Look, coach ben Vicker's been in that same interview

302
00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,480
Speaker 1: would also give a warning to Ilia Taporia not to

303
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,800
Speaker 1: come up to Walter Waite because he would catch that

304
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 1: same smoke. But what the coach is saying here, we

305
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: already established the early DraftKings odds of Islam as a

306
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:23,360
Speaker 1: minus two forty five favorite. Should we be concerned in

307
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: his first fight in this new weight class? Has he

308
00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,880
Speaker 1: shown you any reason up to this point that he

309
00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: might not have the chin to take what JDM brings?

310
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, I'm trying to noodle what he's saying here.

311
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,040
Speaker 5: I mean he might be saying two things. One, you're

312
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:40,280
Speaker 5: going from fifty five to seventy and you're naturally going

313
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,200
Speaker 5: to have harder hitters, which fair enough, that's true.

314
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 2: I don't know if you can even really argue with that.

315
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 2: But is he's saying BC Am I reading this right?

316
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 5: He's kind of intimating that Islam has I mean, obviously

317
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 5: he got stopless strikes once in his career and or

318
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,800
Speaker 5: looks like he doesn't wear punch as well from big

319
00:15:56,800 --> 00:15:59,560
Speaker 5: punchers at fifty five, and so therefore there might be

320
00:15:59,640 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 5: some kind of either chin issue or weight cutting issues.

321
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 5: So some kind of combination of him saying I don't

322
00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 5: think he's as physically sturdy as he needs to be

323
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 5: a fifty five much less seventy, it's what it sort

324
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 5: of sounds like. But I mean, I would push back

325
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:17,440
Speaker 5: on this a little bit to the extent that he

326
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 5: gets up at seventy Islam in terms of bulk and

327
00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 5: just so the you know, the particular way in which

328
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,720
Speaker 5: he wears it, what does that do for his ability

329
00:16:26,720 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 5: to resist strikes granted from heavier hitters generally speaking, but

330
00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 5: you know, he does have some added resistance there. And

331
00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 5: more to the point, if you're also having less of

332
00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,600
Speaker 5: a weight cut, which we do know was the thing

333
00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,000
Speaker 5: that affected him certainly for example, in the fifth round

334
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,240
Speaker 5: of the first Volk fight. Like that's a real thing.

335
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 5: But to what extent is that now being mitigated. I'm

336
00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 5: not saying he shouldn't have confidence in Jack Dale Madelane,

337
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 5: and not so much for being a dynamite puncher per se,

338
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,080
Speaker 5: but for being a very clean and accurate puncher, which

339
00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,800
Speaker 5: I do think is real. And to the extent, for example,

340
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 5: that Islam does struggle to either capture the takedown or

341
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 5: maintain it, what does that do for his necessity to

342
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 5: sluck it out.

343
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:03,560
Speaker 2: Then with Jack?

344
00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 5: And then what does that mean? So I don't think

345
00:17:05,359 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 5: confidence generally is misplaced, but the way he was kind

346
00:17:08,119 --> 00:17:13,080
Speaker 5: of framing it made it seem like islamis fragile or something,

347
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,080
Speaker 5: and I don't I think that might.

348
00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 2: Be a little bit exaggerated. Am I reading that wrong?

349
00:17:18,720 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 9: No?

350
00:17:18,920 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: I agree with you on that. And look, obviously you'd

351
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: hope that the coach would give some level of tough

352
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,520
Speaker 1: talk and support his fighters' strengths. Right here, I certainly

353
00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,560
Speaker 1: agree with the early odds. I believe that Mahitchef. I mean,

354
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:31,320
Speaker 1: obviously he's been the pound for pound king or at

355
00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:34,200
Speaker 1: worst number two for like three years now. I believe

356
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: those early odds show you that he's definitely the more

357
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 1: skilled fighter. But the obvious question that we don't have

358
00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,399
Speaker 1: an answer to is how does he look ten pounds

359
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,880
Speaker 1: or not even ten pounds up more than that higher here,

360
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:47,240
Speaker 1: fifteen pounds higher. That's the leap he's going to have

361
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: to make. I don't think outside of that knockout loss

362
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: or in his UFC debut, he's shown a great history

363
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: of vulnerability. You did mention at times maybe a little

364
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: bit of a fading due to the cut on his

365
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,639
Speaker 1: gas tank. Do you think the dustin Poorier fight should

366
00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:08,600
Speaker 1: potentially give jdm's camp confidence that maybe we saw some

367
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: weaknesses in that bout, Like, how do you explain what

368
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,639
Speaker 1: happened at the end of that fight? Is that just

369
00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:15,280
Speaker 1: Dustin being an all time dog?

370
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,720
Speaker 2: Dustin's a heavy puncher, he is an all time dog.

371
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:19,680
Speaker 2: I think you know that too.

372
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 5: You know, there's been times in fights like certainly in

373
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,600
Speaker 5: the fifth round of the first Volk fight and in

374
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 5: the fifth round of that Parier fight where you know, God,

375
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:30,760
Speaker 5: I think you got a little more competitive than what

376
00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 5: you might have imagined it getting, depending on your perspective anyway.

377
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 2: But you know, again.

378
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:43,119
Speaker 5: Up a weight class generally like what that does, and

379
00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 5: then in particular the relaxation of the difficulty of the

380
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,679
Speaker 5: weight cut. I would like to see that. It's not

381
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,480
Speaker 5: that I have any heartat BC, Like, just to the

382
00:18:53,600 --> 00:18:59,360
Speaker 5: extent that Jack Dala Madelena lands cleanly in combination on Islam,

383
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 5: would this cause terrible problems for him? Yes, this is

384
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:07,520
Speaker 5: I think a very serious and real threat. I guess

385
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 5: I would question a little bit the idea that Islam

386
00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 5: is so fragile that it only really has to happen

387
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 5: one good time, you know for that to be because

388
00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:19,080
Speaker 5: you're talking about someone in Islam BC who generally speaking,

389
00:19:19,240 --> 00:19:24,240
Speaker 5: generally is very defensively strong and is generally speaking, I

390
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 5: realized that he has he had a lapse early in

391
00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:28,760
Speaker 5: his career, but the overwhelming body of evidence shows a

392
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 5: guy who's defensively very sound. So yeah, we're getting kind

393
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 5: of back to it. I don't miss on. I think

394
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:39,000
Speaker 5: the having faith in Jack Dala Manda Elena striking as

395
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,080
Speaker 5: his key way to win is clearly the right way

396
00:19:42,119 --> 00:19:42,720
Speaker 5: to look at it.

397
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:44,200
Speaker 2: Right, clearly the right way.

398
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 5: But I don't I'm not ready to I'm not ready

399
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 5: to say. This is the big question, what is Islam's

400
00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:55,640
Speaker 5: readiness from a physical standpoint at one seventy We don't

401
00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:57,159
Speaker 5: know the answer to that. They seem to think that

402
00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:00,439
Speaker 5: he's going to be physically overmatched. My answer that is

403
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 5: that remains to be seen.

404
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:03,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's see it. I mean, it's not like JDM

405
00:20:03,600 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 1: walk through Blal obviously belas.

406
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,520
Speaker 2: A you know, big it's a big seventier I mean,

407
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:08,359
Speaker 2: for sure.

408
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 1: The final point I wanted to make on this is,

409
00:20:10,560 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 1: I wonder, even though pomfer Pound is what it is,

410
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 1: everybody's got a different opinion. If you have Ilia or

411
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 1: Islam right now, you're you're certainly not wrong, right, it's

412
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,160
Speaker 1: that close. But I wonder if we're going to see

413
00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,560
Speaker 1: those two every time they fight and win before they

414
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 1: eventually fight each other, and I think they will, I

415
00:20:25,119 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: wonder if they're just gonna keep switching places. Luke, would

416
00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: you say, if Islam wins a title on the second

417
00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:35,720
Speaker 1: division and beats JDM in any way that is not controversial,

418
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,720
Speaker 1: is that a better win than what Alia had in

419
00:20:38,760 --> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 1: his new division? Over and aging but still dangerous Olavera?

420
00:20:47,320 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 2: Arguably yes, Arguably yes.

421
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:55,920
Speaker 5: One, it would be beating a full on weight class champion, right,

422
00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 5: so versus somebody who had it and you know, had

423
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,399
Speaker 5: then subsequently lost it. And then secondly, how old is

424
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:06,399
Speaker 5: Dyla Maddelena? Thirty one? Thirty two sounds about right. I

425
00:21:06,800 --> 00:21:09,399
Speaker 5: think he's thirty one. If someone could verify that for me,

426
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 5: I believe that's right.

427
00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 2: Dayla Mattalna is twenty eight years.

428
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:17,880
Speaker 5: Old, dude, beating a guy that young? Yes, I mean

429
00:21:18,040 --> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 5: you have to ask yourself, what would you rather have

430
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 5: as an opponent? Would you rather have someone who's got

431
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:24,480
Speaker 5: an insane amount of experience? But maybe he is a

432
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,719
Speaker 5: little shop worn but still crafty and all that kind

433
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,159
Speaker 5: of shit. Or someone who actually is still kind of

434
00:21:29,160 --> 00:21:31,680
Speaker 5: to an extent even as champion, still kind of proving

435
00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,679
Speaker 5: himself actually, which is really the interesting part. But has

436
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 5: like all the youth on their side, has all of

437
00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,479
Speaker 5: the has all of the vigor and the physicality. I mean,

438
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,199
Speaker 5: they're right at the beginning of their prime. You know,

439
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:46,199
Speaker 5: that's a tough one to say. If I'm going up

440
00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 5: a weight class, I might want the more shop worn

441
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 5: veteran to be honest with you. So in many ways

442
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:53,520
Speaker 5: I could see JDM as a tougher challenge at this point.

443
00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 5: Dude twenty eight, Oh my god, I thought he was

444
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 5: a little bit closer to thirty.

445
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: Jesus, that is wow. He's yeah.

446
00:21:59,080 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: I mean, islam My have the youth advantage in this argument,

447
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 1: but Eli has got the euthanasia Luke that he you

448
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,440
Speaker 1: know he when he finishes these guys speaking.

449
00:22:07,160 --> 00:22:09,439
Speaker 5: Of euthanasia, Can you put your animals on screen? I

450
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:10,400
Speaker 5: want to take a look at him.

451
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,879
Speaker 1: Hey, I actually blocked the door today because Zoe is

452
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,119
Speaker 1: on one of those runs. Can I can hear her head

453
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: bouncing off the door trying to open it because she

454
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 1: she like craves the camera. Now it's out of control. Luke,

455
00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: you know, uh, anyway, let's keep it.

456
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,080
Speaker 2: You gotta put her on only fans how much butthole

457
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:25,840
Speaker 2: she shows.

458
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: Oh crap, she just actually opened the door. Crap. Well yeah, gosh, so, Luke,

459
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 1: let's keep going on this UFC three twenty two card.

460
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:35,280
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm an MSG guy, I'm a Connecticut

461
00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,400
Speaker 1: born guy. It's the world's most famous arena. I love

462
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:43,080
Speaker 1: when UFC makes this card every year truly truly matter,

463
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,400
Speaker 1: like UFC two O five and UFC two seventeen. Now

464
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:49,040
Speaker 1: this one through twenty two not as deep as those

465
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: legendary cards. But how about this co main event when

466
00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,520
Speaker 1: you're talking about the women's side of things, when you're

467
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,119
Speaker 1: talking about an era right now where maybe the women's

468
00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 1: game doesn't have the depth that does. But if we're

469
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:04,320
Speaker 1: gonna get Kayla versus Amanda soon and now we are

470
00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:08,760
Speaker 1: officially going to get Valentina Schifchenko defending once again her

471
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 1: women's flyweight title against the now vacated women's strawweight champion,

472
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:19,600
Speaker 1: the Chinese star Jongwi Lee. This is a female super fight.

473
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:24,120
Speaker 1: This makes three twenty two big time business. And when

474
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 1: we look at these early DraftKings odds, a virtual pick

475
00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: em Jogwai Lee minus one oh five Valentino minus one

476
00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: point fifteen. I'm very happy the UFC did this. We'll

477
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 1: get to what's gonna happen next with the strawweight division,

478
00:23:38,960 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: But Luke power versus power here in terms of name, value, experience,

479
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:47,399
Speaker 1: historical relevance, this is a big one, brother.

480
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 5: This is absolutely huge. I love everything about this fight.

481
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,240
Speaker 5: We had talked about what the fight game needs. Now

482
00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 5: is there excuse me? Is this the biggest women's fight

483
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,639
Speaker 5: you could make one with the most amount of fanfare?

484
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,199
Speaker 5: I would humbly submit to you that if it's in

485
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,480
Speaker 5: the co main event, the answer is probably obvious that

486
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 5: it is not. I would argue BC, and I'm sure

487
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 5: you probably agree. Kayla Harrison defending a returning Amanda Newness,

488
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,600
Speaker 5: which we do think we will get at some point,

489
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 5: that would be a much bigger box office or promotional attraction.

490
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:21,320
Speaker 2: You agree, right?

491
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 1: I agree?

492
00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:23,760
Speaker 2: I agree? Okay, But what.

493
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 5: I'm gonna say is I think this is the best

494
00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,360
Speaker 5: women's fight you can make, at least on paper. Someone

495
00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 5: might respond that Valentina Chevchenko's relative size advantage.

496
00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:38,120
Speaker 2: Obviously, she's very.

497
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:41,600
Speaker 5: Skilled, and what we've seen out of for example, in

498
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:43,960
Speaker 5: the Firo fight to an extent, or you know, some

499
00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 5: other way the third Grosso fight, for example, BC that

500
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 5: you might expect a Chevchenko to try and wrestle her

501
00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 5: and get on top, and in fact, I suspect that

502
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,600
Speaker 5: would be a key part of any game plan that

503
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,480
Speaker 5: she would bring, especially for an opponent like this, and

504
00:24:57,560 --> 00:25:00,440
Speaker 5: also because she is coming up in wait, so there

505
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 5: is a world where potentially this fight actually kind of blows.

506
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 5: I want to be very clear about that. It is

507
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 5: very hold on, hold on, I'm not sure.

508
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:08,879
Speaker 2: I'm not up.

509
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:10,760
Speaker 5: I promise, let me, let me get to it. I promise,

510
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:13,760
Speaker 5: I promise, I promise. I'm not I'm not downplaying the fight.

511
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 5: What I'm trying to do is just reconcile with the

512
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 5: critics up front. Some might say that this one that

513
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,239
Speaker 5: there's a few circumstances you could point to that make

514
00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,040
Speaker 5: you believe that Schevchenko could have a little bit of

515
00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 5: a wrestle fest in winning this one and otherwise not

516
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:32,639
Speaker 5: interesting about Okay, I don't deny that that could happen,

517
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:36,200
Speaker 5: but A that's not a reason to not make the fight,

518
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 5: and B there's also plenty of reason to think that

519
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 5: that's not true at all. Right, You've got Joan Wi

520
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,440
Speaker 5: Lee coming off of a performance against Tatiana Suarez where

521
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,200
Speaker 5: she stuffed fourteen of fifteen takedowns, and to the extent

522
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 5: that she got a takedown, I'm not actually I don't

523
00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 5: know the answer that.

524
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 2: Let me see how much control time she got.

525
00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,439
Speaker 5: Yes, Suarez over the course of that one takedown she

526
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 5: got did have some substantial control time in the first

527
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:02,919
Speaker 5: round three minutes, but then could do nothing else with it.

528
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 5: More to the point, I think that there's other ways

529
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,240
Speaker 5: that the speed advantage and the accuracy of someone like

530
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 5: Jean Wi Lee could make this interesting and in any case,

531
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,080
Speaker 5: be see If Valentina Schevchenko wins, this would make what

532
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 5: her ninth title defense, eighth consecutive or no second consecutive

533
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,520
Speaker 5: because she lost the seven fight win Street, but ninth overall,

534
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:24,160
Speaker 5: but would be kind of historic for a This would

535
00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,639
Speaker 5: be the smallest UFC fighter moving up in weight to

536
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 5: capture a belt in a second weight class. That's never

537
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,359
Speaker 5: been done before, never been done before in this weight class,

538
00:26:31,359 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 5: obviously second woman I think to become a champ. Champ

539
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 5: like what it could mean for the Chinese market and

540
00:26:36,760 --> 00:26:38,560
Speaker 5: could it be an exciting bout on the feet for

541
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,639
Speaker 5: as long as it lasts there. Yes, for all of

542
00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:43,920
Speaker 5: these reasons, you make this fight like and b see.

543
00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 5: More to the point, are there really contenders either at

544
00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 5: strawweight or at flyweight for either Shifchenko or I mean,

545
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 5: I realized that Jeong has now abandoned the title, but

546
00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:57,280
Speaker 5: imagine for a second she hadn't. But you would say, oh,

547
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 5: I'd much rather see those contenders get rewarded with a

548
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 5: weight class fight rather than making this one right now,

549
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:07,520
Speaker 5: they're the most interesting fight for the other person. Yeah,

550
00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 5: given the circumstances, pull the freaking trigger they did. This

551
00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,880
Speaker 5: is a banger, banger, banger of a co main event. Dude,

552
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 5: this is a one two punch. You don't see them.

553
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:18,360
Speaker 5: This is this good that often I.

554
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:21,000
Speaker 1: Mean banger Luca. I prefer to just watch her, right,

555
00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 1: let's not get it get crazy, but let's talk about

556
00:27:24,520 --> 00:27:26,639
Speaker 1: how good this is. I like that Manil Farol got

557
00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 1: her chance. She didn't get the win, but she got

558
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,000
Speaker 1: her chance. It is time. As you mentioned, let's look

559
00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: at a little bit of the statistics here. Valentina is

560
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,800
Speaker 1: thirty seven years old in her second reign as flyweight,

561
00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:40,919
Speaker 1: champion since moving down from bantamweight upon the creation of

562
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:45,679
Speaker 1: this division, she's eleven one and one and has avenged

563
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,359
Speaker 1: both that loss and that draw to Alexa Grosso. Probably

564
00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,359
Speaker 1: should have won that second fight, which was a draw,

565
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 1: and is a two time champion. Jean Willey is thirty six.

566
00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:58,240
Speaker 1: Sometimes people forget that, but since making her UFC debut,

567
00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 1: she's ten and two at one hundred and fifteen pounds. Obviously,

568
00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,800
Speaker 1: the only losses were back to back against Rosanama Unis.

569
00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:09,439
Speaker 1: She's ten and zero against everyone else. Yes, they're up

570
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:11,640
Speaker 1: there in age, but they are one to two from

571
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:14,719
Speaker 1: a female standpoint in terms of pound for pound rankings

572
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: in women's MMA. This is a glorious fight. The odds

573
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,119
Speaker 1: are so close Long Island Luke. From a betting perspective

574
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,480
Speaker 1: early on for these two matchups, does anything jump out

575
00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,359
Speaker 1: to you from what we see in these early odds.

576
00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,280
Speaker 6: I mean, I've been surprisingly to everyone, all my Aussie

577
00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:33,719
Speaker 6: lovers out there. I have been on the Islam Beats

578
00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,880
Speaker 6: JDM train for a while now, so I think that's

579
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 6: a good price for Islam and only minus two seventy eight.

580
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 6: The Valentina way Lee fight, I was literally like I

581
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 6: would take whoever was a dog, and of course it's

582
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 6: a pick them. No one is a dog. So I'll

583
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,080
Speaker 6: wait a little longer to see how that moves.

584
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:49,560
Speaker 1: Wonderful, wonderful to close.

585
00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:53,560
Speaker 5: Out there, there's there's that, there's that pet, there's.

586
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: What I put her down first in front of you

587
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:55,880
Speaker 2: or seven?

588
00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,720
Speaker 1: Come on, you know, rip Booker. We don't have to

589
00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:00,960
Speaker 1: go down this road at all. That's bad bit right there.

590
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 1: But let me tell you this, Luke, one more big

591
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 1: fight out of to msg the third biggest one here.

592
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,080
Speaker 1: How about former welterweight champion Leon Edwards taking on a

593
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: suddenly restored after that one defeat to Ian Gary Carlos Pratsh,

594
00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: who looked absolutely fantastic against Jeff Neil. Big time stakes

595
00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,160
Speaker 1: here for sure, for practish. How confident are we of

596
00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:26,040
Speaker 1: Leon's condition at this moment as still one of the

597
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:29,640
Speaker 1: elite welterweights. Have we learned from that Sean Brady fight

598
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 1: that this is no more?

599
00:29:30,920 --> 00:29:34,640
Speaker 2: Well, that's what this fight is gonna tell us.

600
00:29:34,800 --> 00:29:37,959
Speaker 5: And the reason why is because Carlos Process is nothing

601
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 5: like Bala Mohammed or Sean Brady.

602
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,760
Speaker 2: He is something. I mean, obviously there's significant differences between.

603
00:29:44,440 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 5: Them, but he's a little closer to Nate Diaz right

604
00:29:47,240 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 5: with that lankiness the reach. But I would say Process

605
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 5: has much more pop obviously much more naturally suited for seventy.

606
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 5: You know, the Gary fight didn't go his way, but

607
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,400
Speaker 5: he certainly had a moment late and had better cardio

608
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 5: than I thought he would, which is kind of interesting.

609
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 5: And you know, Leon can't say all I've got to

610
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,600
Speaker 5: worry about someone trying to take me down the whole time. Yeah,

611
00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,160
Speaker 5: you're gonna have a guy who wants to slug it

612
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:08,040
Speaker 5: out right in your face.

613
00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 2: So if you're having.

614
00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 5: Trouble with the grapplers, and then I'm going to imagine

615
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,120
Speaker 5: a world where he has trouble with Process. What can

616
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,800
Speaker 5: you say, by contrast, if you get a win over

617
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 5: a guy like this at this moment in time, you

618
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 5: at least restore some order about Okay, he.

619
00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 2: Can still do some interesting things in this division. It

620
00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 2: hasn't completely fallen off.

621
00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 5: He just had you know, tough matchups given the relative

622
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,840
Speaker 5: skill advantages, he can still do some things.

623
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 2: For Carlos Prochess, on the other hand, dude, this would

624
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 2: be the biggest win of.

625
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,840
Speaker 5: His career by a million Miles right, this would be huge,

626
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 5: huge for him. By contrast, though, I think if he loses,

627
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:40,880
Speaker 5: it kind of tells you where he's settling out.

628
00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 2: But that's still a pretty interesting place to be.

629
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 5: So I think to me, the bigger stakes winning and losing,

630
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 5: honestly kinda are on Leon's side here.

631
00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no doubt about that. Obviously, this would give

632
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,320
Speaker 1: him a big shot at restoring it, but this seems

633
00:30:57,360 --> 00:31:00,160
Speaker 1: to be like Protests coming off a big win. I

634
00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: hope they continue to play up his Majorga esque ways

635
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: in terms of his marketing and character. I mean, you've

636
00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,720
Speaker 1: beat a former champion who was pound for pound top

637
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,560
Speaker 1: five not that long ago. You're gonna have a big

638
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:14,880
Speaker 1: opportunity to get into position in an already loaded division.

639
00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 1: I love this triple header at the top of the

640
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,640
Speaker 1: card that they've got that got going on here for

641
00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 1: three twenty two. That's November fifteenth at MSG. Let's get

642
00:31:23,440 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 1: into the other half of the announcements. It'll be the

643
00:31:26,120 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 1: pay per view one month earlier, October twenty fifth in

644
00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: Abu Dhabi. What do we already know about that card?

645
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 1: We know? In the main event, Tom Aspinall in his

646
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:37,240
Speaker 1: first defense of the undisputed heavyweight title will take on

647
00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:41,120
Speaker 1: Serial Game. I'm sorry, Surreal Gone. Also, we're gonna get

648
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: Alexander Volkoff Jalton Almeida. We knew about a lot of these.

649
00:31:44,320 --> 00:31:48,880
Speaker 1: Alexander Ratchet Rakitch against Ozamah Murza Khanoff. We have two

650
00:31:48,920 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: big time additions here. First, and what will probably be

651
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:55,560
Speaker 1: the co main event. It's a women's strawweight rematch, this

652
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:58,520
Speaker 1: time though, for the vacant one hundred and fifteen pound

653
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,720
Speaker 1: title after the exit of Zongwe Lee, who, by the way,

654
00:32:01,800 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 1: exits this division on a five fight win streak. It's

655
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 1: gonna be Verna Janji Roba, thirty seven years old against

656
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,680
Speaker 1: a constantly up and down Mackenzie Dern. We know Durn's

657
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 1: star power. We also know Dern owns a unanimous decision

658
00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 1: victory over Jenji Roba when they met five years ago

659
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:25,280
Speaker 1: in mid pandemic. This rematch is going to be uh

660
00:32:25,640 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 1: that was at UFC two fifty six. So look, this

661
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 1: rematch goes for the strawweight title vacant. We've got a

662
00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 1: two fight wind streak for Dern. We've got a five

663
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:39,360
Speaker 1: fight win streak overall for Janjiroba. How are you looking

664
00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: at this rematch, do you think this was the right

665
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: move now for a division that's down on talent from

666
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,880
Speaker 1: its prime eras and now is even downer. But at

667
00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,640
Speaker 1: least there's a big name and here you know, and

668
00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:53,040
Speaker 1: somebody who's earned it in Janjuroba.

669
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

670
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,760
Speaker 5: I mean, first of all, it's a rematch. The first

671
00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:58,520
Speaker 5: fight was not especially interesting. Jenji Roba was able to

672
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 5: get her down and hold her down or use control

673
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 5: time anyway, and some superior positioning in the second round

674
00:33:04,200 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 5: to take it, but otherwise got basically outstruck all the

675
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:10,120
Speaker 5: way through and Dern went zero for five on takedowns

676
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 5: in their first fight. If you can imagine that, Ginger

677
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 5: Roba won for one, So it's kind of interesting, but

678
00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:19,840
Speaker 5: it wasn't enough. Dern was better on the feet, and

679
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,840
Speaker 5: I think that's probably only maintained a degree of truth.

680
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 5: Like Ginger robe is kind of up against it, right

681
00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:27,040
Speaker 5: because her best way to win is probably going to

682
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:29,480
Speaker 5: be on the ground, but against Dern that's a tough

683
00:33:29,480 --> 00:33:29,959
Speaker 5: thing to do.

684
00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:33,800
Speaker 2: It can be done, but it requires quite a bit.

685
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,120
Speaker 5: Anyway, it's the right fight to make, basically, right, you

686
00:33:37,120 --> 00:33:38,880
Speaker 5: could have maybe gone a couple.

687
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,960
Speaker 2: Of different directions. But let's think about this logically. BC.

688
00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 5: In Jenji Roba, she did lose to Amanda Hebas back

689
00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:45,880
Speaker 5: in October of twenty twenty one, but since then has

690
00:33:45,920 --> 00:33:50,200
Speaker 5: beaten Angela Hill via decision, Marina Hadriguez decision, Lupy Go Dinez.

691
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:53,120
Speaker 5: That's a tough one decision. She submits Amanda lay motion

692
00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 5: the second round and then beats Yan Shao Nan. Now,

693
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 5: if anyone's deserving of a title shot in this division,

694
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 5: it's after a run like that. Darn does not have

695
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:03,360
Speaker 5: that kind of a run. That is true.

696
00:34:03,520 --> 00:34:05,680
Speaker 2: However, she is on a two fight.

697
00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 5: Win streak where she beat Lupy go' din A's via

698
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 5: decision and then submitted Amanda Heboss and looked. You know again,

699
00:34:10,560 --> 00:34:13,160
Speaker 5: in general, I think pretty good in that fight, all

700
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,759
Speaker 5: things being what they are.

701
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 2: So it's like durn is thirty two. I did verify

702
00:34:18,640 --> 00:34:20,160
Speaker 2: that she's thirty two. BC.

703
00:34:20,680 --> 00:34:22,760
Speaker 5: This is the end of her prime if you're gonna

704
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,200
Speaker 5: give her a title shot, you know how, there's a

705
00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,799
Speaker 5: two fight win streak enough that's up for debate, but

706
00:34:29,040 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 5: probably the wins are quality. She promotionally satisfies an interesting need.

707
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 5: There is a chance that if she gets the championship,

708
00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:37,760
Speaker 5: which is, you know, a pretty good one. At this point,

709
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 5: you know she'll fulfill some of the promise that was

710
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,560
Speaker 5: early in her career that I think some of us

711
00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 5: weren't sure she would ever do. So I'm cool with it.

712
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 5: I think this is a deserving fight, especially have a

713
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 5: deserving contender in jan Gi Roba. I can't make any

714
00:34:51,239 --> 00:34:53,200
Speaker 5: claims about what kind of fight it will be in

715
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,040
Speaker 5: terms of the best thing ever, but it's a worthwhile

716
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 5: addition to this card.

717
00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: Did it?

718
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 5: They didn't announce any fights yesterday where I was like, Uh,

719
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 5: all of them that they announced I think meaningfully contribute

720
00:35:03,680 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 5: to the cards that they are on.

721
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:07,799
Speaker 1: I agree with you on that one, and it's much

722
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,080
Speaker 1: better that Durn's on a two fight win streak that

723
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: she had to finish in her last one. Yes, she's

724
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: four and four in her last eight. We've seen a

725
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: lot of those up and downs, but it's a constant

726
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: theme when we react to her fights. Even you know,

727
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,880
Speaker 1: we know that she has elite skills in certain categories,

728
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: an incredible chin, some of the best submission game. Obviously,

729
00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 1: she's never fully rounded out that game, but she is

730
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Speaker 1: a star and Luke if We're gonna be honest here.

731
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:36,279
Speaker 1: If this was Verna versus Lemos who you know, But

732
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,319
Speaker 1: you wouldn't do that because Jangioba recently beat her, or

733
00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:44,280
Speaker 1: Jangioba against you know, Jan Shaunan. I'm gonna be honest.

734
00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,879
Speaker 1: I don't think people would care at all about this fight.

735
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,480
Speaker 1: I think they'd almost be like, get it off of

736
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,760
Speaker 1: the main card. I think there's intrigue. There's always intrigue

737
00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 1: in Durn's story. She's always carried herself like a star.

738
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:57,360
Speaker 1: I want to see what happens here. This is a

739
00:35:57,600 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you think about this pay per

740
00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:01,160
Speaker 1: view and all? Because do you think people will get

741
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:05,680
Speaker 1: behind Espinal gone? Or is it weird that John left

742
00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,719
Speaker 1: stripped of the title now he's back. Gon came off

743
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:10,960
Speaker 1: a win against Volkoff that you know, no one believed

744
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 1: he earned, and in his other big step up title

745
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 1: opportunities he laid two eggs. So this card does have

746
00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,920
Speaker 1: some things going against it in some ways. How do

747
00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 1: you feel about how three twenty one's coming together?

748
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,279
Speaker 5: I I mean, I don't know if it's my favorite card.

749
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,160
Speaker 5: I want to see the whole thing here up so

750
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:30,399
Speaker 5: I can take a look at it and give you

751
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:32,400
Speaker 5: a more accurate answer. Are we gonna get to the

752
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,239
Speaker 5: Umar fight too, because that one got put on there.

753
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, So just to quick I'll say Umar and Magametov,

754
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 1: coming off the loss in the title bout to Morob

755
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: de Valashvili will take on a Mario Bautista, who last

756
00:36:42,200 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 1: time I checked is still streaking. So that adds to

757
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 1: the depth of this card for sure.

758
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,680
Speaker 5: All right, So what I'm gonna say is, again, first

759
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 5: of if you look at the flyweight rankings, there's a question,

760
00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,440
Speaker 5: there's no question that Verna as the number one contender,

761
00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,960
Speaker 5: deserves it, which we said Durnas sitting at five. The

762
00:36:57,000 --> 00:36:59,000
Speaker 5: problem is Lamosh got beat and she's sitting at four.

763
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:01,319
Speaker 5: Jan Sha Nang got beat by Verna, She's sitting at three.

764
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,120
Speaker 5: Tatiana Suarez just came off of a loss to the Chip. Well,

765
00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 5: the champions no longer there, but it is sitting at

766
00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:08,360
Speaker 5: number two. You know, could you have gone with Godinez

767
00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 5: at six both of them beat her. There's the Yasmin

768
00:37:11,120 --> 00:37:14,040
Speaker 5: Luscindo and Tabitha Ricci element who are further down the line,

769
00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:15,480
Speaker 5: and I'm not saying they deserve it either, but there

770
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,440
Speaker 5: is at least some question about whether durn deserves the

771
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,719
Speaker 5: title shot. But the point is is Jji rob is

772
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:24,040
Speaker 5: at one, Durns at five. Everyone in between is either

773
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 5: lost to the champion or lost to either of those contenders,

774
00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:29,240
Speaker 5: So I can kind of see them by a process

775
00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 5: of elimination.

776
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:30,919
Speaker 2: That's why you would go there.

777
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 5: Also, Tom Aspinall defending the heavaway title by itself is

778
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,280
Speaker 5: kind of a minor miracle given what we've been through.

779
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 5: And I know that Gon didn't deserve this fight. There's

780
00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,200
Speaker 5: absolutely zero argument that he does. But independent of the rankings,

781
00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:46,799
Speaker 5: this is somebody that Tom hasn't faced, and it's somebody who,

782
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 5: at least in theory on the feet, we don't know

783
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 5: a lot about Tom, Like we just don't. We don't

784
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,279
Speaker 5: mean he does this all the time to escape, and

785
00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:56,839
Speaker 5: we don't know what he looks like in the fourth round.

786
00:37:56,840 --> 00:37:58,360
Speaker 2: We don't know anything.

787
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 5: You would have think that there's on some level Cyril

788
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,320
Speaker 5: Gond might be able to answer some of these questions.

789
00:38:03,600 --> 00:38:04,720
Speaker 2: So the bout has value.

790
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,600
Speaker 5: So to me, that has intrigue those have intrigued. Volkov

791
00:38:07,640 --> 00:38:10,239
Speaker 5: Almeta to me is a little less interesting. Rackage versus

792
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 5: Murza Khanov is very interesting. Bill Willhab versus Chris Barnett

793
00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:16,120
Speaker 5: is just you know, I'm not gonna trash it, but

794
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:16,880
Speaker 5: it doesn't do anything.

795
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:19,200
Speaker 1: I'll take Chris Barnett against anybody if you're just gonna

796
00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: add on another fight.

797
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:21,600
Speaker 5: So yeah, I mean it's an add on fight to

798
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,359
Speaker 5: make the card more fun, right, that's what it is.

799
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:26,799
Speaker 5: Ikramala Scarov and Park John Jong is a fine fight,

800
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 5: and there's some other ones down the line. You mentioned

801
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,560
Speaker 5: Gomdov in Baltista, which by the way, is actually a

802
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 5: pretty good fight.

803
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's talk about that. Yeah, there's nothing.

804
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 5: What you're pointing out is there's nothing like it's like,

805
00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:38,759
Speaker 5: it's not like three twenty two, where like it's like

806
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 5: very perfectly aligned at this moment in time. It's kind

807
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 5: of like putting pieces together. But what I'm gonna say

808
00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 5: is it also lacks three twenty one a little electricity,

809
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:50,240
Speaker 5: whereas three.

810
00:38:50,120 --> 00:38:53,279
Speaker 2: Twenty two is the sky is crackling with it.

811
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:55,400
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot more questions to be answered

812
00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 1: that matter a lot more. It seems that three twenty two,

813
00:38:58,120 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: but it is good at three twenty one at the

814
00:38:59,680 --> 00:39:02,800
Speaker 1: very least that Aspinall gets back to business, he rightfully

815
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: gets to be the uh you know, defending undisputed champion.

816
00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:08,759
Speaker 1: Uh and at least Gone is the big I guess,

817
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,239
Speaker 1: the biggest name left outside of John Jones, who was

818
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 1: potentially available here. I want to get to Bautista in

819
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:18,200
Speaker 1: uh or. I'm making about in one second turn one.

820
00:39:18,280 --> 00:39:20,360
Speaker 1: The first fight I forgot to ask you this against

821
00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 1: Janji Roba. It wasn't a thriller. She got the job done.

822
00:39:24,120 --> 00:39:26,840
Speaker 1: As they stand right now in terms of their current stock,

823
00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 1: I think Janjer Rooba should almost be the favorite here.

824
00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:30,400
Speaker 1: How do you look at that?

825
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I don't I don't know if they

826
00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 5: have odds at Long Island Luke just yet, but I

827
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:40,440
Speaker 5: would agree. I mean, well, umm, she's certainly done better

828
00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:44,320
Speaker 5: work in that division. There's no question, that's not even arguable.

829
00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:47,759
Speaker 5: You have to ask yourself. Those styles make fights, and

830
00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 5: this is someone who already got beat. Granted it was

831
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 5: some time ago, twenty twenty or so, twenty or twenty one,

832
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:52,400
Speaker 5: something like that.

833
00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:54,840
Speaker 2: Maybe twenty nineteen.

834
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:59,719
Speaker 5: I've won twenty okay, so you know game has changed

835
00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,920
Speaker 5: a little but since then, but I feel like Dern's

836
00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 5: gotten better. The question is, has Jenji Robo gotten a

837
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:07,359
Speaker 5: lot better since then.

838
00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:11,319
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know about that.

839
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:14,200
Speaker 1: I don't know that all right, in that bandamweight division.

840
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,280
Speaker 1: This is a very key bout to potentially, in all theory,

841
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: produce a new title challenger. I mean, maybe not direct.

842
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 1: I mean, let me ask you that, Luke, Mario Bautista,

843
00:40:23,440 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 1: the run he's on, if you now beats Martin Maga Metov,

844
00:40:26,440 --> 00:40:28,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna be hard not to put him in a

845
00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 1: title fight, considering morob is quickly, you know, clearing out

846
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 1: all the big names. But do you think the same

847
00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:36,400
Speaker 1: thing is at stake for Umar? Given the fact that

848
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:40,040
Speaker 1: it was a very close fight against Mob, Umar seemed

849
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:43,600
Speaker 1: to really dominate the first two rounds before Mirab was

850
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,920
Speaker 1: able to really pull on that gas tank. Could you

851
00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: see him bouncing right back into a rematch with a

852
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 1: win in this one?

853
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:54,919
Speaker 2: Well, you got yaan out there.

854
00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,560
Speaker 1: That's the interesting that's also true, yes, yes, uh.

855
00:40:57,760 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 5: And the issue is people are just desperate to not

856
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 5: give Mario Bautista his credit. He's a very good fighter.

857
00:41:05,600 --> 00:41:08,440
Speaker 5: Whether you like him, whether you find him exciting, or

858
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:10,680
Speaker 5: whether his style is in any way pleasing to you.

859
00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 5: These are not irrelevant questions. Every fan gets to feel

860
00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:17,320
Speaker 5: how they feel about a fighter. No problem, it's cool.

861
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:22,400
Speaker 5: But you can't say he's not good. He is very good.

862
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:25,680
Speaker 5: He did not luck his way into the situation that

863
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 5: he's in.

864
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,440
Speaker 1: He played flight wind Streak by the way.

865
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 2: Right exactly in this way. Class.

866
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,319
Speaker 5: I don't give a shit, dude, You're not fighting eight

867
00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 5: chumps in a row. It's not happening. So but the

868
00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 5: problem is for Umar, Dude, Umar is sitting at two

869
00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,440
Speaker 5: in the rankings, Bautista is sitting at eight. Wow, that

870
00:41:41,480 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 5: would be like, I mean, maybe catastrophic is a strong word,

871
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 5: but that would be terrible for Umarum made off if

872
00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:52,000
Speaker 5: he lost this fight. Meanwhile, what a boost to the

873
00:41:52,000 --> 00:41:54,280
Speaker 5: fortune of Maria Bautista, who would have the Jose Alda

874
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:56,160
Speaker 5: fight in his back pocket. Granted didn't make him a

875
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 5: lot of fans, but it didn't hurt his professional standing.

876
00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:04,399
Speaker 5: And you beat Umar, brother, you're you're right there, You're

877
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:08,760
Speaker 5: right there, whereas Umar's got the problem of Mario. Mario

878
00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 5: can be beaten, but not many people look super awesome

879
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 5: doing it. He's kind of like tough to like style on.

880
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 5: And so with Yan sitting right out there having styled

881
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,840
Speaker 5: in his last fight. I don't know, it's it's gonna

882
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 5: be tough.

883
00:42:22,400 --> 00:42:24,879
Speaker 1: I mean, I get like, I mean they say fight

884
00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,080
Speaker 1: win streak for Bautista if he gets this to be nine,

885
00:42:27,640 --> 00:42:29,560
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, that's even more than Fluffy's got

886
00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,520
Speaker 1: at the moment, and he just happens to be a

887
00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 1: middleweight in a in a in a clogged division at

888
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,719
Speaker 1: the very top. But like, how much is it? How

889
00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,920
Speaker 1: much should people hold against Bautista to fight despite the

890
00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:44,200
Speaker 1: eight fight win streak, which didn't get elite names until

891
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:47,760
Speaker 1: sort of the latter half, that he fought somewhat safe

892
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,920
Speaker 1: against Josey Aldo, and that he beat a patche Mix

893
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:53,920
Speaker 1: in his UFCA debut, who unfortunately, I hate to say it,

894
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 1: laid a giant egg, didn't move his head at all,

895
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,360
Speaker 1: kept walking in, you know, as if he didn't respect

896
00:42:59,360 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: his opponent at all, and ultimately paid for it in

897
00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:02,319
Speaker 1: a big way.

898
00:43:03,719 --> 00:43:08,359
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I'm not I'm not. I'm not sure

899
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 5: what to say about that. He didn't you know, Bautistas.

900
00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:18,440
Speaker 5: I'll say this about Bautista. How about this? Here is

901
00:43:18,480 --> 00:43:22,600
Speaker 5: a wonderful opportunity to finally prove to the fans exactly

902
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:25,520
Speaker 5: who you are, right, styles make fights.

903
00:43:25,680 --> 00:43:26,640
Speaker 2: That's one issue.

904
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,440
Speaker 5: Previously, it's affected him and and it will be you know,

905
00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:32,080
Speaker 5: relevant potentially in every single contest. But what I'm saying

906
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:33,040
Speaker 5: is a number number.

907
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:33,279
Speaker 2: Got made of.

908
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,160
Speaker 5: Yeah he didn't beat Morob, but I think he is

909
00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:42,360
Speaker 5: a very well rounded, super talented fighter. And if you

910
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:45,000
Speaker 5: can beat a guy like that, you know, yes, there's

911
00:43:45,000 --> 00:43:46,200
Speaker 5: a way he could do it. Where it's you know,

912
00:43:46,239 --> 00:43:48,400
Speaker 5: another sort of thing that the fans point is boring,

913
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,239
Speaker 5: but it's also an opportunity depending on what you can

914
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 5: do to really showcase your level of ability and the

915
00:43:55,280 --> 00:43:57,799
Speaker 5: kinds of things you're capable of on your best day.

916
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 5: It really is a fantastic opportun unity to finally prove

917
00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,480
Speaker 5: once and for all. You know, you might be grudgingly

918
00:44:03,560 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 5: welcome me into the top ten, but this is a

919
00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:07,600
Speaker 5: chance to really seal the place, certainly into the top

920
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 5: five and potentially even top three with that kind of performance. So,

921
00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:13,120
Speaker 5: you know, there's a lot he's up against. There's a

922
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 5: lot that's gone wrong from a promotional standpoint, But a

923
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,439
Speaker 5: fight like this against an opponent like that, by the way,

924
00:44:18,600 --> 00:44:22,240
Speaker 5: not in his backyard BC, but in something roughly approximating

925
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:26,279
Speaker 5: you know, Neuberkameidov's backyard. This is also big opportunity for

926
00:44:26,360 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 5: him yet to get.

927
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:31,640
Speaker 1: Our first UFC Daugastan card still waiting on that. That's

928
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,440
Speaker 1: your reaction there. I gotta say, as much as I

929
00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 1: respect Mario Bautista's game, man, I really do want Morob

930
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 1: versus Zumar part two. Whether it would happen next or

931
00:44:39,480 --> 00:44:41,600
Speaker 1: pay or yam. We'll get the first crack. We'll see

932
00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:43,680
Speaker 1: how it plays off. That's a hell of a launch

933
00:44:43,719 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: there from Dana yesterday. I'm sure more to come. Luke.

934
00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,480
Speaker 1: We're talking about the summertime here. It's the tail end

935
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,080
Speaker 1: of it. And you know what can happen more sweat,

936
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:56,240
Speaker 1: more heat, more stink potential. You've got to be ready.

937
00:44:56,280 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 1: And if there's one thing I know I'm not messing

938
00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 1: around with when I'm out in public representing me and

939
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 1: my family is mighty odorant my smell. Right, I'm talking

940
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:09,440
Speaker 1: about Mando deodorant plus sweat control, and it is built

941
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,360
Speaker 1: for this season. Right, depending on where you live, it

942
00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: can still be very hot out there. What does Mando

943
00:45:14,960 --> 00:45:17,680
Speaker 1: give you? Hop up block an odor all day, controlling sweat,

944
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,319
Speaker 1: powerful on the pits, but gentle on the skin. It's

945
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:23,960
Speaker 1: not your typical drug store pick. This is a high

946
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,960
Speaker 1: performance pit shield. And look, if I'm grilling in ninety degrees,

947
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:31,239
Speaker 1: I'm playing golf, I'm chasing the kids around. Hey, heck

948
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 1: if I'm chasing the muff around. Although I'm clearly not Luke,

949
00:45:34,640 --> 00:45:37,279
Speaker 1: I'm trying to survive swamp ass, right, I'm trying to

950
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,879
Speaker 1: be out there looking good, smelling good. I don't want

951
00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,560
Speaker 1: to worry about that. That's why, when it comes down

952
00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:46,760
Speaker 1: to it, dude, I'm representing Mando. Whether it's the spray,

953
00:45:46,960 --> 00:45:50,080
Speaker 1: whether it's the cream, whether it's the pitstick. I mean, look,

954
00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: I could show you right now how to even you know,

955
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 1: apply this and smell. I mean you know I could

956
00:45:55,120 --> 00:45:56,280
Speaker 1: get I mean thought.

957
00:45:56,160 --> 00:45:57,719
Speaker 2: I thought you were going to do the John Daly

958
00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:00,160
Speaker 2: and then spray it in your mouth. Hey.

959
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:01,680
Speaker 1: Look, the thing is, this is the first time I've

960
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 1: put on deoder in all day. So I smell good

961
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,120
Speaker 1: right here. And why would I use it? Why would

962
00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:09,840
Speaker 1: I hype it up on this show? It smells great.

963
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,799
Speaker 1: It's also doesn't have the kind of ingredients in there

964
00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,360
Speaker 1: that you have to worry about. What else can you

965
00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:17,959
Speaker 1: say that about Mando that makes it unique, Luke.

966
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:19,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there's so many things.

967
00:46:19,400 --> 00:46:22,280
Speaker 5: As you indicate it just quality products that don't irritate

968
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,239
Speaker 5: your skin, they feel great, and it takes good care

969
00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:28,280
Speaker 5: about what you want? Is something reliable? Am I getting

970
00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:30,880
Speaker 5: my money's worth? Does this product work? And does it

971
00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,960
Speaker 5: work at a price point that matters? And on all

1003
00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:09,560
Speaker 1: let's keep it moving here. Topic number two. We got

1004
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:13,360
Speaker 1: a big time I Guess of Swords boxing event this weekend.

1005
00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,319
Speaker 1: It's drawn big time attention. It's gonna air on his

1006
00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:21,240
Speaker 1: own Saturday one pm Eastern Main Card start live from Manchester, England.

1007
00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:26,240
Speaker 1: It's Misfits Boxing twenty two and certainly has a major

1008
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:30,080
Speaker 1: mixed martial arts presence on it from a main event

1009
00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:33,400
Speaker 1: that pits Darren Till against Luke rock Hold. And if

1010
00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,399
Speaker 1: you've seen some of the press conference Hyjinks this week

1011
00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:38,680
Speaker 1: and our good friend Ben the Baine Davis got a

1012
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 1: nice elbow in the face from Darren Till when they

1013
00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:44,040
Speaker 1: had to be held off. That's going to be a

1014
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:46,319
Speaker 1: brick got a bridger weight bout? Are we really doing this?

1015
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:50,040
Speaker 2: So bridger role is? What? Two hundred to two twenty four?

1016
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:54,960
Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, We've also got Tony Ferguson making his boxing

1017
00:48:54,960 --> 00:48:57,440
Speaker 1: debut here against Salt Poppy. We'll get into that a second.

1018
00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: Dylan Danis will also be taking an MMA FI on

1019
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,359
Speaker 1: a boxing card. I'm not sure why that matters, but Luke,

1020
00:49:03,600 --> 00:49:06,839
Speaker 1: when it comes to disruption, we give BKFC credit when

1021
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:10,200
Speaker 1: they do it. Mike Perry versus Jeremy Stevens, I'm gonna

1022
00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,359
Speaker 1: watch it. What about Darren Till versus Luke rock Hole.

1023
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:16,960
Speaker 1: The current betting odds have Tila is an overwhelming betting

1024
00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:21,160
Speaker 1: favorite minus two thousand. He has looked well in make

1025
00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:24,399
Speaker 1: it look good and making this boxing transition. Luke rock Hold,

1026
00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:27,359
Speaker 1: who of course was brutally stopped and really asked out

1027
00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,080
Speaker 1: of the fight in BKFC against Mike Perry is a

1028
00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 1: plus one thousand underdog from the standpoint of disruption. Do

1029
00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:36,760
Speaker 1: you care about this fight on Saturday?

1030
00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:45,520
Speaker 2: No?

1031
00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:51,719
Speaker 5: No, I mean, listen, we know well it is what

1032
00:49:51,760 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 5: it is, right, Yeah, there's an audience for this, Okay,

1033
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:02,520
Speaker 5: Darren Till. Where they win, in my opinion could potentially

1034
00:50:02,520 --> 00:50:04,680
Speaker 5: be in the Jake Paul sweepstakes, and I don't know

1035
00:50:04,719 --> 00:50:06,600
Speaker 5: how likely that it is, but I would not rule

1036
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:10,440
Speaker 5: it out depending on how this goes. And hasn't lost

1037
00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 5: I think since losing to DDP right when his last

1038
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:17,880
Speaker 5: UFC fight, I think he's won everything he's done outside

1039
00:50:17,880 --> 00:50:22,560
Speaker 5: of the octagon since then. You mentioned he's a big favorite.

1040
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,120
Speaker 5: People seemingly want to see this. I don't know that

1041
00:50:26,160 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 5: it's got relevance, certainly for Rockhold, who's what like forty

1042
00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 5: years old at this point. I mean, he's getting up there.

1043
00:50:32,600 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 5: There's just nothing to say about him. He's just an

1044
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:36,680
Speaker 5: aging guy doing an aging guy's thing, and that's no hate.

1045
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,279
Speaker 5: But that's just where he's at. Darren Till, to me

1046
00:50:39,360 --> 00:50:40,960
Speaker 5: still has a little bit How old is Darren Till

1047
00:50:40,960 --> 00:50:42,640
Speaker 5: he's still got a little bit of life left in him.

1048
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:44,919
Speaker 2: He's thirty two. He's thirty two BC.

1049
00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,360
Speaker 5: So it's a little bit more interesting on the Darren

1050
00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:50,839
Speaker 5: Hill side of things. And we've seen ABC guys who

1051
00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:52,760
Speaker 5: you know, they can kind of wash out of MMA

1052
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:58,759
Speaker 5: and then rehabilitate themselves doing influencer boxing or BKFC or

1053
00:50:58,840 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 5: some combination of the too. It can happen that you

1054
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:04,800
Speaker 5: can revive your name to a degree. I think Darren

1055
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 5: Till's got an interesting opportunity, you know, but does it

1056
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:12,239
Speaker 5: plug you back into the you know, major pipelines of

1057
00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:13,160
Speaker 5: elite talent.

1058
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:14,200
Speaker 2: I don't think we can.

1059
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 1: You know, that's not what this is about, right, That

1060
00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,799
Speaker 1: is not what this is about. It's probably about you know,

1061
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 1: fun disruption. I like what you're saying there about the

1062
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,080
Speaker 1: potential for Till of a Jake Paul fight.

1063
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:26,240
Speaker 2: They that's you think that's crazy.

1064
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:27,799
Speaker 1: No, I don't think that's crazy when you look at

1065
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:29,280
Speaker 1: it right now, and if you're looking at the opponents,

1066
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,000
Speaker 1: Jake Paul is choosing. He can say all he wants about,

1067
00:51:32,040 --> 00:51:34,480
Speaker 1: you know, fighting for cruiser right world titles. He's he's

1068
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:37,080
Speaker 1: still looking to just sell, you know, sell events, and

1069
00:51:37,120 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 1: make and make big big things happen. I mean, have

1070
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,440
Speaker 1: I loved the Till rock Hole trash talk. I mean

1071
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:47,399
Speaker 1: it it seems forced Till yells into the microphone even

1072
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 1: more than I do in this show, Luke. But I

1073
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,239
Speaker 1: do recognize that Darren Till seems to have found a

1074
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:54,680
Speaker 1: home here. This is the same weekend that we're also

1075
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:58,160
Speaker 1: getting Mike Perry and John Jones presenting Dirty Boxing with

1076
00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:02,960
Speaker 1: gyre Xenior Rosenstrup fighting for their inaugural heavyweight championship. But

1077
00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 1: I do care about this more. I want to see

1078
00:52:05,560 --> 00:52:08,480
Speaker 1: what happens in terms of who might win. Unfortunately, I

1079
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,040
Speaker 1: have no confidence in Luke Rockold right now? Is that overstated?

1080
00:52:12,320 --> 00:52:14,800
Speaker 1: Because Mike Perry did seem to with the bare knuckles

1081
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,280
Speaker 1: break his teeth on that, you know, on the first

1082
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:20,480
Speaker 1: attack there. Do you feel like Darren Till will slice

1083
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:21,400
Speaker 1: through him ultimately?

1084
00:52:24,400 --> 00:52:24,960
Speaker 2: Probably?

1085
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,760
Speaker 5: I mean, rock Hold does have the win over Shilling

1086
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,840
Speaker 5: from Karate Combat, and that was nice, but it just

1087
00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 5: feels like rock Hold's durability.

1088
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:36,279
Speaker 2: Has taken a hit. I mean again, dude, I mean

1089
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:39,040
Speaker 2: that's not even an insult, Like, how could it not? Right?

1090
00:52:39,160 --> 00:52:42,080
Speaker 5: He's forty, he's been he was, you know, a champion

1091
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:45,640
Speaker 5: in fucking Strike Force for crying out loud, like, you know,

1092
00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:48,719
Speaker 5: he's had a good long amount of damage. It takes

1093
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:52,239
Speaker 5: a toll, and Till is still in his at least

1094
00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:55,879
Speaker 5: athletic prime probably, so Yeah, Like, I don't think it's

1095
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,960
Speaker 5: in any way unfair to raise some of these questions.

1096
00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 5: You know, again, combat's word's as crazy. It's not like

1097
00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,719
Speaker 5: Till is unbeatable. But I don't think it's unfair to

1098
00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:06,439
Speaker 5: look at like Luke rock Holes situation to be like, yeah,

1099
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,359
Speaker 5: this might not go well, right might?

1100
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,439
Speaker 1: He did fight like an absolute dog in that sort

1101
00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:15,600
Speaker 1: of weird final UFC fight against Paula Costa, but hey,

1102
00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 1: they're gonna do it. We'll see what happens ultimately. It

1103
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:21,359
Speaker 1: seems like there's just as much attention on what will

1104
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:22,399
Speaker 1: happen in this comin event.

1105
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,320
Speaker 5: By the way, hold on real quickly. That fight against

1106
00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:25,920
Speaker 5: Costa was three years ago.

1107
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:27,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right, you know what I mean.

1108
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:31,360
Speaker 2: It was August of twenty twenty two. It's been a while.

1109
00:53:31,719 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I just feel like, why would Luke have

1110
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:36,919
Speaker 1: the dog in him to win a really hard fight

1111
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 1: like this if he has to? I wonder if it's

1112
00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 1: just the competitor and him, stay busy, get another paycheck.

1113
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 1: Till's still in his physical prime. Till seemingly has more

1114
00:53:46,200 --> 00:53:49,279
Speaker 1: things to win from this, So I understand Till as

1115
00:53:49,320 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 1: a twenty to one favorite. Good lord.

1116
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:53,520
Speaker 2: Maybe that's that does seem.

1117
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 1: That does seem high. That seem high right there, speaking

1118
00:53:56,200 --> 00:53:58,439
Speaker 1: of getting high Long Island, Luke, are you gonna jump

1119
00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,319
Speaker 1: on the plus one thing rock Hold? Odds? Here?

1120
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 10: Now?

1121
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 7: Actually I thought you'd at first you were seeing me

1122
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:05,879
Speaker 7: up for Darren Till.

1123
00:54:05,920 --> 00:54:06,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, plus one thousand.

1124
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 6: I feel like that is actually worth a dabble on

1125
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 6: for rock Hold, because I feel like neither guy is

1126
00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 6: that great, and this is boxing, anything could happen.

1127
00:54:15,480 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would throw down on Rockell.

1128
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 1: All right, there you go. Hey, let's move on to

1129
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:22,040
Speaker 1: that comin event. Forty one year old Tony Ferguson, for

1130
00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:25,000
Speaker 1: better or for worse, probably worse, is still fighting here,

1131
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:30,120
Speaker 1: following eight consecutive UFC defeats to end his career, of course,

1132
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:33,239
Speaker 1: beginning with that Jacksonville interim title loss in which he

1133
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:36,080
Speaker 1: took a lot of damage against Justin Gatchee back during

1134
00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 1: the pandemic. He'll welcome salt Poppy. It's a weird ass fight.

1135
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:46,560
Speaker 1: It's interesting and weird. Ferguson a plus three forty underdog,

1136
00:54:46,680 --> 00:54:50,040
Speaker 1: so not insanely out of it. Minus five hundred for

1137
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:53,040
Speaker 1: Salt Poppy. If you're like, hey, who the heck is

1138
00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:55,759
Speaker 1: Salt Poppy? I did kind of have to look it up,

1139
00:54:55,840 --> 00:55:00,120
Speaker 1: and now my topology page is given me issues. So

1140
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,840
Speaker 1: Saw Poppy is uh five.

1141
00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,400
Speaker 2: Thirty one years old.

1142
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,120
Speaker 1: He hails from England. His real name is Luke. Mentioned

1143
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:09,920
Speaker 1: is Nathaniel bus Damonte.

1144
00:55:10,320 --> 00:55:10,440
Speaker 4: Uh.

1145
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:12,200
Speaker 1: I believe he used to be a fat guy who

1146
00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 1: slimmed down. Overall in these.

1147
00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,960
Speaker 5: CROs mess the question I thought Salt Poppy was American? Like,

1148
00:55:18,000 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 5: I know he's fighting out of London.

1149
00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:19,839
Speaker 2: Is it?

1150
00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,560
Speaker 1: I don't know, you know? Do I know? No? Do

1151
00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:24,560
Speaker 1: I care even more?

1152
00:55:24,640 --> 00:55:28,280
Speaker 5: Now two fos in their late forties being like, who

1153
00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:29,160
Speaker 5: wears Saltpoppy?

1154
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,399
Speaker 1: I mean seriously, I mean salt It could be Salt

1155
00:55:31,400 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 1: Bay for all I know. So overall, Salt Poppy is

1156
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:36,759
Speaker 1: six and two in his boxing escapades, but he has

1157
00:55:36,840 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 1: won three in a row, not against names you'll remember.

1158
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:42,040
Speaker 1: He does have a loss to Anthony Taylor, the former

1159
00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,640
Speaker 1: Belator fighter who has been all over Jake Paul and

1160
00:55:44,680 --> 00:55:47,879
Speaker 1: misfits boxing cards. Luke, the story here is a lot

1161
00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:52,520
Speaker 1: more about Tony Ferguson. What do we expect here? What

1162
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,800
Speaker 1: are we doing? I mean, this is a five round

1163
00:55:54,840 --> 00:55:59,560
Speaker 1: middleweight bout. Does this end bad here? Or does this

1164
00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:03,399
Speaker 1: somehow revived Tony? But if it did revive Tony, would

1165
00:56:03,400 --> 00:56:05,719
Speaker 1: you wanted to you know what I mean? Luke, like,

1166
00:56:05,840 --> 00:56:08,440
Speaker 1: you know, like, what's the best scenario here?

1167
00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:10,520
Speaker 5: I mean, I just want to go over here very quickly.

1168
00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:13,840
Speaker 5: Tony Ferguson is forty one years of age. He's older

1169
00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:17,600
Speaker 5: than Luke rock Hold. His last win came against Donald Cerroni.

1170
00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:23,600
Speaker 5: This was in June of twenty nineteen, prior to the pandemic.

1171
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,160
Speaker 5: Since then, he got viciously beaten up and stopped by

1172
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:31,680
Speaker 5: Justin Gagee. He got you know, thrashed by Charles olivera

1173
00:56:32,320 --> 00:56:34,759
Speaker 5: similar to Benil darry Yusch who lost that as well.

1174
00:56:34,800 --> 00:56:36,839
Speaker 5: He got one of the worst front kick KOs I've

1175
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 5: ever seen against Michael Chandler. He got guillotine by Nate Diaz,

1176
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:45,640
Speaker 5: he got arm triangle choked by King Green Bobby Green.

1177
00:56:46,280 --> 00:56:49,120
Speaker 5: Then he got decisioned by Patty Pimlet and then he

1178
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:51,080
Speaker 5: got choked out be a real naked choke in the

1179
00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:53,680
Speaker 5: first round by Michael Kiessa. Can I be honest, I

1180
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,040
Speaker 5: didn't even remember that he fought Michael Kiessa. I literally

1181
00:56:57,080 --> 00:56:59,320
Speaker 5: memory hold that, and that was the last time we

1182
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,680
Speaker 5: saw him, which was year ago BC August of twenty

1183
00:57:01,760 --> 00:57:07,360
Speaker 5: twenty four. It's not MMA, and so on some level

1184
00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:10,520
Speaker 5: you might say, and he's fighting an influencer, so you

1185
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:13,960
Speaker 5: might say, well, you know, I don't know.

1186
00:57:13,960 --> 00:57:14,839
Speaker 2: How bad could it be?

1187
00:57:14,880 --> 00:57:17,440
Speaker 5: I think it's scheduled for five rounds if memory serves,

1188
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:22,800
Speaker 5: I believe five rounds. But you know, I've not been

1189
00:57:23,160 --> 00:57:24,920
Speaker 5: and I think most of us would agree not been

1190
00:57:25,000 --> 00:57:27,640
Speaker 5: super overwhelmed with the quality of boxing we've seen from

1191
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 5: MMA fighters who have crossed over. Tony in his time

1192
00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:34,680
Speaker 5: and in his peak certainly had very good MMA boxing,

1193
00:57:34,680 --> 00:57:40,800
Speaker 5: but he's always had like monster defensive lapses. I don't

1194
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:42,800
Speaker 5: know how you can walk into this fight and not

1195
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:46,640
Speaker 5: feel at least some level of deep concern for this man.

1196
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:50,120
Speaker 1: Long Oulan, Look, I'm honestly not not really you know,

1197
00:57:50,240 --> 00:57:53,040
Speaker 1: prepped or cared enough to prep on How good is

1198
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:56,440
Speaker 1: Salt Poppy as a boxer? Could you share any insight

1199
00:57:56,520 --> 00:57:58,120
Speaker 1: with us on this or did we fail?

1200
00:57:58,440 --> 00:57:59,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, we failed.

1201
00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,840
Speaker 5: I didn't do anything he's got he's got a little

1202
00:58:02,880 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 5: bit of power. He's got a little bit of power,

1203
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:08,680
Speaker 5: and I think he's got probably better skill than Tony.

1204
00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:11,920
Speaker 5: He certainly has much more boxing experience in terms of

1205
00:58:11,960 --> 00:58:14,800
Speaker 5: like bouts, even if you want to call them exhibitions

1206
00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:16,920
Speaker 5: or whatever. He's like done the thing.

1207
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:19,960
Speaker 11: Overall.

1208
00:58:20,360 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, am I ready to say, like, oh

1209
00:58:22,360 --> 00:58:25,080
Speaker 5: he's in trouble, Like I don't. I don't know enough

1210
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:28,720
Speaker 5: to say if Tony's in trouble, But like, just even

1211
00:58:28,720 --> 00:58:31,600
Speaker 5: if you didn't know anything about Salt Poppy, just given

1212
00:58:31,640 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 5: the circumstances, by the way he is British, shows what

1213
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:38,920
Speaker 5: I know if you didn't know the circumstances or sorry,

1214
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:43,120
Speaker 5: just knowing the circumstances of Tony Ferguson, You're like, this

1215
00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:45,840
Speaker 5: seems bad. This seems like really really bad.

1216
00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 1: Let's look at the face off that they had this week.

1217
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:50,800
Speaker 1: If if the body bodies can show us anything or

1218
00:58:50,840 --> 00:58:53,400
Speaker 1: maybe the looks uh there's a look at that smile

1219
00:58:53,400 --> 00:58:56,520
Speaker 1: from Calli Sowerland behind Tony right there. That guy's never

1220
00:58:56,560 --> 00:59:00,040
Speaker 1: been to a bad party. Uh, Tony Taller right against the.

1221
00:59:01,520 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 2: Ranger.

1222
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I like the no tie. Look. I mean, he

1223
00:59:05,320 --> 00:59:08,280
Speaker 1: does look a little gangster right there. But it's it's

1224
00:59:08,440 --> 00:59:10,959
Speaker 1: just we've we've seen enough to know we've seen too much.

1225
00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:14,400
Speaker 1: Is really where I'm going with this. We also got

1226
00:59:14,440 --> 00:59:16,280
Speaker 1: some comment. Look at Ben the Baine in the middle

1227
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 1: right there. Shout out to that guy. Uh. He will

1228
00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:20,600
Speaker 1: be on the broadcast as a ringside reporter.

1229
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,120
Speaker 2: He called me drunk last night.

1230
00:59:22,560 --> 00:59:24,400
Speaker 1: I love that. Todd Grisham, of course, will be on

1231
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:27,320
Speaker 1: the call on his own, along with about eighteen other announcers,

1232
00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:29,600
Speaker 1: because that's how his owne does it. Here is Tony

1233
00:59:29,680 --> 00:59:33,840
Speaker 1: Ferguson talking about the ever elusive Habib Normaga met Off fight.

1234
00:59:34,320 --> 00:59:36,240
Speaker 4: I know you mentioned the build ups this huge a

1235
00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:40,880
Speaker 4: few weeks ago, about the time when Kabib confronted you

1236
00:59:41,560 --> 00:59:43,760
Speaker 4: at a hotel in front of your family. Is not

1237
00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 4: the closest you've ever felt. So having personal hatred to

1238
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 4: someone would kud be be the only personal time? Was

1239
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:53,160
Speaker 4: that still enough today?

1240
00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 2: Bring hatred out of you.

1241
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:56,720
Speaker 12: I wouldn't call it hatred. He's still fat head in

1242
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:58,240
Speaker 12: my book. You know, he still could be run his

1243
00:59:58,280 --> 01:00:00,919
Speaker 12: world tour when it goes into it. He his dad

1244
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:02,800
Speaker 12: was the one that saved him from some real ass

1245
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:04,800
Speaker 12: whaapons and just getting buddy and stitched up and all

1246
01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:07,080
Speaker 12: this other stuff. He did some foolish things. I mean,

1247
01:00:07,120 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 12: you went to New York and he made some homeless

1248
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:09,960
Speaker 12: to push ups and threw money at him like there

1249
01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:12,080
Speaker 12: were strippers, which is ridiculous. You know him and his

1250
01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,800
Speaker 12: cousin Nakachev when it goes into it. I like to

1251
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:16,480
Speaker 12: be able to look after the people that can't look

1252
01:00:16,520 --> 01:00:19,040
Speaker 12: after themselves, and I've always done that since I was little.

1253
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:22,120
Speaker 12: This Saturday come from with Nathaniel and assault, you know

1254
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:23,280
Speaker 12: what I mean. I don't have to go on there

1255
01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:23,880
Speaker 12: and intimidate it.

1256
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:25,360
Speaker 2: It's not my back to be able to do that.

1257
01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:28,000
Speaker 12: I carry a certain presence with myself when I show up.

1258
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:30,160
Speaker 1: You don't mean to, but it's not how I am.

1259
01:00:30,240 --> 01:00:31,680
Speaker 2: This is how I look, and that's just uh.

1260
01:00:32,160 --> 01:00:34,320
Speaker 12: Somebody mass questions doesn't have to say anything.

1261
01:00:34,400 --> 01:00:35,080
Speaker 3: Did just show up?

1262
01:00:36,200 --> 01:00:39,280
Speaker 1: No, they don't know taror me, Sue reference they're from Tony.

1263
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:42,560
Speaker 1: That's a shocker. I do, like, I respect this guy

1264
01:00:42,600 --> 01:00:44,320
Speaker 1: so much Luke that like, I don't even want to

1265
01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:46,960
Speaker 1: see him talk trash anymore. I want to I just wanna.

1266
01:00:47,440 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I legit wish like you know, and you

1267
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,920
Speaker 5: can't wish this for all the fighters who performed heroically

1268
01:00:54,040 --> 01:00:57,000
Speaker 5: during the time you watch them, but you like you

1269
01:00:57,040 --> 01:00:59,040
Speaker 5: wish they could be coaches and then just you know,

1270
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:01,560
Speaker 5: take pride in them and getting ready for the next generation.

1271
01:01:01,720 --> 01:01:05,120
Speaker 5: And it's like that I realized, I realized, we all

1272
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:07,160
Speaker 5: know that can't be everybody, but there's a few of

1273
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:08,400
Speaker 5: them you wish it could be true.

1274
01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:08,680
Speaker 9: For me.

1275
01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:12,120
Speaker 1: Tony, at least in his prime as a talker, had

1276
01:01:12,200 --> 01:01:16,200
Speaker 1: such a great personality, could command a media scrum and

1277
01:01:16,360 --> 01:01:19,920
Speaker 1: entertain you the whole time that I remember, specifically ahead

1278
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 1: of that fight with Anthony Pettis, it was like he

1279
01:01:22,480 --> 01:01:24,520
Speaker 1: did a couple of those at media day, where like

1280
01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,480
Speaker 1: we're just all mesmerized as he does his shtick. I

1281
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:30,560
Speaker 1: do almost wish he became a commentator or a person.

1282
01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 2: You know, a UF commentator is a strong word.

1283
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:35,800
Speaker 1: I get it, but like those you know, I get

1284
01:01:35,840 --> 01:01:37,120
Speaker 1: it all right, that is what it is.

1285
01:01:37,160 --> 01:01:39,280
Speaker 5: No, but to your point, to your point, just thriving

1286
01:01:39,320 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 5: in a fight related role right still in the fight game,

1287
01:01:45,120 --> 01:01:47,960
Speaker 5: just just not putting his health on the line. I

1288
01:01:47,960 --> 01:01:49,720
Speaker 5: will say, though, bec there's gonna be a lot of

1289
01:01:49,720 --> 01:01:53,040
Speaker 5: fist pumps if he viciously Ko Salt Poppy, which, yeah, sure,

1290
01:01:53,320 --> 01:01:54,960
Speaker 5: you know, I have nothing against the guy, but as

1291
01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:56,760
Speaker 5: an influencer, it would be nice to see an MMA

1292
01:01:56,800 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 5: fighter sleep him. But if it's another MMA fighter getting

1293
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:03,880
Speaker 5: torn by an influencer, you know, not great, is what

1294
01:02:03,920 --> 01:02:04,600
Speaker 5: I would say.

1295
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,360
Speaker 1: That Tony wasn't born a little bit later so that

1296
01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,640
Speaker 1: he could pull a sakur Raba and just try to

1297
01:02:09,640 --> 01:02:12,640
Speaker 1: be all the Nirmaga madoffs and extended Nrmaga madoffs to

1298
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:15,280
Speaker 1: finally get the final boss, Habib. At the end of

1299
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:18,880
Speaker 1: the day. Speaking of Habib, Hunter quickly on Habib. Did

1300
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:21,640
Speaker 1: you see kid Nate tweeted it out some report that

1301
01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:25,080
Speaker 1: it was revealed that Habib was offered thirty five million

1302
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 1: for a comeback fight at some point in recent years.

1303
01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:29,160
Speaker 2: I did not see that.

1304
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 1: By the UFC. I don't know the sourcing on that,

1305
01:02:32,040 --> 01:02:34,320
Speaker 1: but kid Nate was trying to make a point that

1306
01:02:34,840 --> 01:02:37,640
Speaker 1: TKO in this era, whether it's John Jones or Habib,

1307
01:02:37,680 --> 01:02:40,120
Speaker 1: they will for a big one. They will pay. But

1308
01:02:40,160 --> 01:02:42,080
Speaker 1: that could have been Saudi money too, for all we know.

1309
01:02:42,400 --> 01:02:45,680
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, I'd be curious to learn more for sure.

1310
01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:47,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. Oh we got one more piece

1311
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:50,160
Speaker 1: of sound here. So Dylan Danis apparently has an MMA

1312
01:02:50,280 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 1: fight on this card, and he caused trouble all week.

1313
01:02:53,280 --> 01:02:55,320
Speaker 1: At the press conference, he cared more about getting in

1314
01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:59,440
Speaker 1: KSI's face than his actual opponent. Here is Dylan Danis

1315
01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:05,040
Speaker 1: talking about one Tony Ferguson now right now, Hey, boxing,

1316
01:03:05,240 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 1: you won't get paid, you won't you need the bottle game?

1317
01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,120
Speaker 1: I dig then I'd bend you over and fuck you dirty.

1318
01:03:15,800 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 9: Here, I'm just.

1319
01:03:16,360 --> 01:03:19,160
Speaker 2: Showing the turn after you.

1320
01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:22,760
Speaker 10: I apologize in the language I cannot little.

1321
01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:23,800
Speaker 3: You know what.

1322
01:03:25,320 --> 01:03:26,840
Speaker 2: Let's take it to Warren Spencer.

1323
01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:28,520
Speaker 10: Hair.

1324
01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:32,200
Speaker 1: Obviously, Luke I read that wrong. That was Luke rock

1325
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,320
Speaker 1: coldho when after not Tony, that was your sound bite

1326
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,520
Speaker 1: of the week. Did Luke in fact turn that woman? Okay?

1327
01:03:38,600 --> 01:03:39,560
Speaker 1: Enough for that.

1328
01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:41,920
Speaker 5: I gotta say that's got first of all, that's definitely

1329
01:03:41,920 --> 01:03:43,680
Speaker 5: got some b K of C vibes.

1330
01:03:43,720 --> 01:03:46,480
Speaker 2: However, however, he doesn't deliver it well.

1331
01:03:47,880 --> 01:03:48,920
Speaker 1: But that's a pretty good thing.

1332
01:03:49,160 --> 01:03:50,560
Speaker 2: It's a pretty good thing. I think.

1333
01:03:51,000 --> 01:03:53,680
Speaker 1: Will Dylan Danis ever fight in the PFL or UFC

1334
01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:57,680
Speaker 1: in your mind? Not like I really care, Like I

1335
01:03:57,760 --> 01:03:58,680
Speaker 1: used to care when he.

1336
01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:02,520
Speaker 5: Was definitely not when he was in Bellatur. But yeah,

1337
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 5: UFC definitely not PFL to me. Probably no, I'll say no,

1338
01:04:07,520 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 5: I'll take the under. I'll take the under.

1339
01:04:09,400 --> 01:04:10,280
Speaker 3: All right, there we go.

1340
01:04:10,400 --> 01:04:14,320
Speaker 1: Misfits twenty two this weekend is own one Pastern check

1341
01:04:14,360 --> 01:04:18,160
Speaker 1: it out if you care. Also this weekend, Craig Jones

1342
01:04:18,240 --> 01:04:23,400
Speaker 1: is back with CJI two, the Craig Jones Grappling Invitational,

1343
01:04:23,720 --> 01:04:27,240
Speaker 1: a two day event at the Thomas and Burp Center

1344
01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:32,080
Speaker 1: in Las Vegas. Excuse me, Luke, We know that CJI

1345
01:04:32,200 --> 01:04:35,280
Speaker 1: won last year was a big deal. It seemed to

1346
01:04:35,320 --> 01:04:39,720
Speaker 1: like disrupt the grappling industry. It also seemed to influence

1347
01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:44,240
Speaker 1: UFC if they already weren't in the influential stages of

1348
01:04:44,520 --> 01:04:47,840
Speaker 1: according to Craig, copying their model and rolling out their

1349
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:51,360
Speaker 1: own grappling league. We did see Demetrius Johnson this week

1350
01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:55,800
Speaker 1: hold a debate between Craig Jones and new UFC grappling

1351
01:04:55,840 --> 01:04:59,760
Speaker 1: star and former one Championship vet Mikey Mussamechi first and

1352
01:04:59,800 --> 01:05:01,920
Speaker 1: four almost, Luke, what can you tell us we do

1353
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:03,840
Speaker 1: have a change in the main event that's been a

1354
01:05:03,840 --> 01:05:07,320
Speaker 1: big storyline. What should we care about what should we

1355
01:05:07,480 --> 01:05:11,720
Speaker 1: know about entering CJI two this weekend? A reminder you

1356
01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:15,400
Speaker 1: had Craig Jones on this MK in your damn house

1357
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:16,840
Speaker 1: a couple months back.

1358
01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:19,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'll make this as simple as I possibly can.

1359
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 5: First of all, it'll be a two day event. Saturday,

1360
01:05:22,840 --> 01:05:26,400
Speaker 5: basically at nine pm e nine pm Eastern. I think

1361
01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:28,560
Speaker 5: there's a pre show at like eight thirty, but basically

1362
01:05:28,640 --> 01:05:31,959
Speaker 5: nine pm, and then Sunday nine pm, So same time

1363
01:05:32,080 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 5: Saturday Sunday.

1364
01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:35,600
Speaker 2: And this year it's very, very different.

1365
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:37,960
Speaker 5: Now it's still going to be in that slanted thing

1366
01:05:38,000 --> 01:05:39,960
Speaker 5: that the UFC just straight up took from them, and

1367
01:05:40,000 --> 01:05:42,840
Speaker 5: everyone's like, oh, you know, Craig got it from Karate Combat,

1368
01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:44,880
Speaker 5: which is true, but he licensed it from them, and anyway,

1369
01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:47,640
Speaker 5: it's a different story. But neither here nor there. Here's

1370
01:05:47,640 --> 01:05:50,000
Speaker 5: what you need to know. It's a team concept. It's

1371
01:05:50,000 --> 01:05:51,880
Speaker 5: like Quintet. Do you remember Quintet PC?

1372
01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:54,080
Speaker 1: I do remember it, not like I watched it, but

1373
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:54,480
Speaker 1: I remember.

1374
01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:54,720
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1375
01:05:54,760 --> 01:05:56,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, five versus five is how it goes. But the

1376
01:05:56,960 --> 01:05:59,480
Speaker 5: way it works is, let's say you're on a team.

1377
01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:04,200
Speaker 5: You're on Team Connecticut and I'm on Team DC, and

1378
01:06:04,440 --> 01:06:07,240
Speaker 5: we battle and I beat the first guy from Team Connecticut.

1379
01:06:07,280 --> 01:06:09,680
Speaker 5: I just stay doing that until I've beaten as many

1380
01:06:09,720 --> 01:06:12,760
Speaker 5: people as I can, and one person can wipe out

1381
01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:13,439
Speaker 5: the whole team.

1382
01:06:13,520 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 2: That can actually happen depending on how it goes.

1383
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,800
Speaker 5: You're gonna have all of the ADCC weight classes here,

1384
01:06:18,840 --> 01:06:21,640
Speaker 5: so sixty six kilos, seventy seven, eighty eight, ninety nine,

1385
01:06:21,920 --> 01:06:24,360
Speaker 5: and then plus ninety nine. You'll have one representative from

1386
01:06:24,360 --> 01:06:27,520
Speaker 5: each team. But here's the interesting part, BCE. So let's

1387
01:06:27,520 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 5: say Team DC fights Team Connecticut. You beat me, my

1388
01:06:31,600 --> 01:06:36,160
Speaker 5: coach will have a Royal Rumble style clock from which

1389
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:39,840
Speaker 5: they then can pick whoever they want to go face you,

1390
01:06:40,520 --> 01:06:42,960
Speaker 5: and then the big reveal will not be announced. It

1391
01:06:43,000 --> 01:06:46,480
Speaker 5: will just happen Royal Rumble style, where like the curtain

1392
01:06:46,520 --> 01:06:49,520
Speaker 5: opens and then that person walks out, and all the

1393
01:06:49,560 --> 01:06:52,760
Speaker 5: coaches are going to have this Royal Rumble opportunity to

1394
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:57,360
Speaker 5: you know, pick exactly what matchup they want given the circumstances.

1395
01:06:57,480 --> 01:07:00,920
Speaker 5: So that's basically how it's going to work when team

1396
01:07:01,360 --> 01:07:03,400
Speaker 5: takes home a million, and then they can split that

1397
01:07:03,560 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 5: however they want. There's also a four person women's bracket.

1398
01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:08,880
Speaker 5: I'll get to that in just a second. That is

1399
01:07:08,920 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 5: interesting that's the highest prize money for any woman's tournament ever,

1400
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:13,560
Speaker 5: I believe very quickly.

1401
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:14,320
Speaker 2: If you're wondering.

1402
01:07:14,120 --> 01:07:18,120
Speaker 5: Where it airs live and free on the B Team

1403
01:07:18,160 --> 01:07:20,240
Speaker 5: YouTube channel, you don't have to pay a cent to

1404
01:07:20,320 --> 01:07:21,000
Speaker 5: watch it.

1405
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 2: It's right there. You can go and check it out.

1406
01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 5: The teams are New Wave, that's the Gordon Ryan's not competing,

1407
01:07:26,040 --> 01:07:28,360
Speaker 5: but that's the Gordon Ryan kind of well he's King's

1408
01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:31,440
Speaker 5: Way now, but that's their team team. They're going to

1409
01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,160
Speaker 5: face off in the first round against Team America's. By

1410
01:07:34,160 --> 01:07:37,320
Speaker 5: the way, the guy who coaches Team America's BC, Greg Souders,

1411
01:07:37,560 --> 01:07:39,439
Speaker 5: was very briefly a guy that I got to train

1412
01:07:39,520 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 5: with many many years ago. I find him to be

1413
01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:45,120
Speaker 5: a very very good coach. Atto I don't know if

1414
01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:47,200
Speaker 5: I ever rolled with him, he was just teaching classes.

1415
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:51,960
Speaker 5: But Attos faces with who has Diego Pato, who might

1416
01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,480
Speaker 5: be one of the best competitors in the world, takes

1417
01:07:54,480 --> 01:07:57,640
Speaker 5: on Team Europe. B Team is on this as well.

1418
01:07:57,680 --> 01:08:00,120
Speaker 5: They're gonna take on Daisy Fresh. Daisy Fresh has one

1419
01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:01,200
Speaker 5: of the most interesting names.

1420
01:08:01,400 --> 01:08:01,640
Speaker 2: BC.

1421
01:08:01,840 --> 01:08:05,840
Speaker 5: Michael Pixley at NCAA Division two National champion on Daisy

1422
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:08,880
Speaker 5: Fresh had a huge win at ADCC last year, and

1423
01:08:08,920 --> 01:08:10,560
Speaker 5: to me is one of these guys who might have

1424
01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:13,800
Speaker 5: gone into MMA but for the nature and growth of

1425
01:08:13,840 --> 01:08:17,679
Speaker 5: submission grappling now just does pure sport jiu jitsu instead,

1426
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:20,120
Speaker 5: so keep an eye on him. Tenth Planet will take

1427
01:08:20,160 --> 01:08:23,720
Speaker 5: on Team austral Asia, and then the women's tournament is

1428
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:25,719
Speaker 5: going to be Helena Cravar, who is like a teen

1429
01:08:25,960 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 5: phenom out of New Wave, taking on previous ADCC champion

1430
01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:34,920
Speaker 5: Adele Fernarino, and then Annavia taken on Sarah Galvant. Day

1431
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:38,519
Speaker 5: two BC will have you know basically the whatever the

1432
01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:41,000
Speaker 5: winners were from day one faced off to win the championship.

1433
01:08:41,640 --> 01:08:46,320
Speaker 5: Also on that is going to be Craig Jones taking

1434
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:48,559
Speaker 5: on Jail Son. And now you might say, wasn't that

1435
01:08:48,560 --> 01:08:51,160
Speaker 5: supposed to be Gable Steveson, Yes it was. It is

1436
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:53,479
Speaker 5: not going to be that anymore. Gable Steveson pulled out

1437
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:56,320
Speaker 5: with turf toe. What is interesting about this BC, and

1438
01:08:56,360 --> 01:08:58,760
Speaker 5: I'm not making any suggestions. I do not know what

1439
01:08:58,800 --> 01:09:01,400
Speaker 5: the truth is. What I can tell you is Gordon

1440
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 5: Ryan put out an Instagram post claiming that Gable pulling

1441
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:09,240
Speaker 5: out of the event was a boss move by UFC.

1442
01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 5: I don't know exactly what he's implying, but there's no

1443
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,559
Speaker 5: interpretation of that where that is good. I don't know

1444
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:19,160
Speaker 5: what that means exactly, But in any case, Gable has

1445
01:09:19,200 --> 01:09:22,519
Speaker 5: a fight pass LFA event in two weeks his pro

1446
01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:24,800
Speaker 5: mma debut, and is pulling out here with turf toe

1447
01:09:25,600 --> 01:09:27,839
Speaker 5: such that you can call that whatever that is anyway?

1448
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:30,240
Speaker 1: Can I interrupt you and ask would you argue that,

1449
01:09:30,280 --> 01:09:34,720
Speaker 1: like the biggest storyline slash rivalry in this event is

1450
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:38,000
Speaker 1: actually Craig Jones versus the UFC rather than any of

1451
01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:40,840
Speaker 1: the grappling teams or individuals facing off.

1452
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:41,280
Speaker 2: Yes.

1453
01:09:41,280 --> 01:09:43,519
Speaker 5: In fact, if I have both one blessing and curse

1454
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:46,520
Speaker 5: for this event, you are so right you nailed it exactly.

1455
01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:49,960
Speaker 5: Which is on the one hand, if you follow Craig

1456
01:09:50,040 --> 01:09:51,960
Speaker 5: on social media and he's been doing the rounds, he

1457
01:09:51,960 --> 01:09:54,439
Speaker 5: did MK he did Aerial Show, he did the Mighty

1458
01:09:54,479 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 5: Mouse Debate, all this kind of stuff, he's been making

1459
01:09:56,560 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 5: the rounds. He has done an unbely job as one

1460
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,960
Speaker 5: man trying to promote a jiu jitsu event. But one

1461
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:08,120
Speaker 5: of the downsides to this is ABC Gable Steveson even

1462
01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 5: before pulling out, wasn't doing any promo at all, which

1463
01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:13,840
Speaker 5: was a problem, and more to the point, none of

1464
01:10:13,880 --> 01:10:17,559
Speaker 5: the people competing in the jiu jitsu matches have any

1465
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:21,040
Speaker 5: kind of promotional rivalry that can sell the event beyond

1466
01:10:21,080 --> 01:10:23,000
Speaker 5: what Craig is doing. So like, yes, Craig has done

1467
01:10:23,000 --> 01:10:25,479
Speaker 5: a very very good job in my opinion, but the

1468
01:10:25,600 --> 01:10:28,200
Speaker 5: limit to that is he's just really one guy doing it.

1469
01:10:28,240 --> 01:10:31,639
Speaker 5: How much can one guy do? While substantial, I would argue,

1470
01:10:31,800 --> 01:10:35,200
Speaker 5: not nearly enough for what the event frankly needs and deserves.

1471
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:37,719
Speaker 5: So there's a bit of a problem there for sure. Anyway,

1472
01:10:37,760 --> 01:10:39,200
Speaker 5: just to wrap it up, he's going to be going

1473
01:10:39,280 --> 01:10:41,680
Speaker 5: up against Jail Sun and in a super fight. My

1474
01:10:41,760 --> 01:10:43,360
Speaker 5: hope is that they make it kind of fun because

1475
01:10:43,360 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 5: from a competitive standpoint, it really shouldn't be. Although I

1476
01:10:45,479 --> 01:10:51,080
Speaker 5: will say BC shouts to the West Lynne gangster. Just

1477
01:10:51,240 --> 01:10:54,240
Speaker 5: showing up on the worst of circumstances for a very

1478
01:10:54,240 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 5: difficult task at this age pretty remarkable.

1479
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:01,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that with The only thing I'll hedge that

1480
01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:03,719
Speaker 1: with is he also showed up for that Alan Anderson

1481
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,680
Speaker 1: Silva boxing trilogy and the two of them did WWE

1482
01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 1: style boxing in Brazil for a bunch of money. Like

1483
01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:12,759
Speaker 1: I almost feel like they should add strikes to this fight,

1484
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:15,840
Speaker 1: just so it's not like, you know, goofball, grab each

1485
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:17,920
Speaker 1: other's package and then Craig tabs them out. You know

1486
01:11:17,960 --> 01:11:18,360
Speaker 1: what I mean.

1487
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:22,160
Speaker 5: There's no way it's gonna be great, right, I mean,

1488
01:11:22,200 --> 01:11:26,000
Speaker 5: how could it be? But what is Craig supposed to do?

1489
01:11:26,080 --> 01:11:28,479
Speaker 5: It's a one time a year event. If the thing

1490
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:30,880
Speaker 5: falls through, he said this. I don't know if you

1491
01:11:30,880 --> 01:11:31,160
Speaker 5: saw this.

1492
01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:34,320
Speaker 2: Did you see Craig spoke to Oscar Willis yesterday for

1493
01:11:34,400 --> 01:11:37,599
Speaker 2: MacLife No, and so in it, what he basically says is.

1494
01:11:37,600 --> 01:11:40,400
Speaker 5: We didn't do a good enough job planning a backup.

1495
01:11:40,880 --> 01:11:42,960
Speaker 5: We should have had a backup planned because it is

1496
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:44,479
Speaker 5: one time a year, and what are you gonna do

1497
01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:46,719
Speaker 5: with the full thing? The main event, so to speak,

1498
01:11:47,160 --> 01:11:50,200
Speaker 5: fell out, you know, five days before it's supposed to happen.

1499
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:54,240
Speaker 5: It's just this terrible timing. But you know, I really

1500
01:11:54,280 --> 01:12:00,520
Speaker 5: believe Craig understands how to make jiu jitsu entertaining. Seeji

1501
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:04,960
Speaker 5: one was a massive success. I know for MMA fans

1502
01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:08,000
Speaker 5: it's going a little bit under the radar, but I

1503
01:12:08,000 --> 01:12:12,000
Speaker 5: I'll say this, I am very cautiously optimistic that you're

1504
01:12:12,040 --> 01:12:14,960
Speaker 5: going to see something really fun and special on Saturday

1505
01:12:15,000 --> 01:12:16,040
Speaker 5: and Sunday all.

1506
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:19,080
Speaker 1: Right Long Island. Luke reminding us that Chail and Craig

1507
01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:23,080
Speaker 1: did grapple a ADCC in twenty seventeen, Craig winning by

1508
01:12:23,280 --> 01:12:26,080
Speaker 1: heel hook. We've got sound from Craig. This is from

1509
01:12:26,120 --> 01:12:29,479
Speaker 1: the mighty debate that Demitrius Johnson put on. It was

1510
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:32,160
Speaker 1: a sort of entertaining back and forth. Here is Craig

1511
01:12:32,200 --> 01:12:35,639
Speaker 1: talking about what has become a rivalry with UFC over

1512
01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:39,479
Speaker 1: his accusation that they are banning their own grappling athletes

1513
01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:41,759
Speaker 1: or fighters from appearing on his cards.

1514
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:47,360
Speaker 13: We had never negotiated officially. They've thrown money at us,

1515
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,320
Speaker 13: terrible money for the streaming ruts to see Jo, But

1516
01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:54,440
Speaker 13: the Automate Foighter reality show was a separate deal, gotcha.

1517
01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:56,599
Speaker 9: So Adresse and is ad they offered you money to coach.

1518
01:12:57,400 --> 01:12:57,559
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1519
01:12:57,600 --> 01:12:59,800
Speaker 13: They basically told us for nine months that like, no,

1520
01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 13: you're not competition. Any of our guys can do it,

1521
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:04,400
Speaker 13: Like we're not going to hold them back. CGI separates,

1522
01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:05,960
Speaker 13: love them free on YouTube as long as the snow

1523
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:08,400
Speaker 13: behind a paywell, aller athletes can do it. And then

1524
01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:10,320
Speaker 13: they offered me the show with Mikey, and then the

1525
01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:12,840
Speaker 13: second I said no.

1526
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:13,200
Speaker 3: No athletes could do it anymore.

1527
01:13:13,360 --> 01:13:18,880
Speaker 13: Mmm, so again false promises breaking my heart they did, Mikey.

1528
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:23,120
Speaker 10: Do you think if you would have did that, can

1529
01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:27,040
Speaker 10: other athletes outside of the UFC do CGI? Because you

1530
01:13:27,080 --> 01:13:29,160
Speaker 10: think about it, if you had all the UFC roster

1531
01:13:29,560 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 10: at CGI and then you brought in like you know, Mika,

1532
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:33,439
Speaker 10: who's honor, Who's number one?

1533
01:13:33,720 --> 01:13:36,080
Speaker 9: You have one championship those guys or do you think

1534
01:13:36,840 --> 01:13:39,120
Speaker 9: if that was you, what that route?

1535
01:13:39,120 --> 01:13:41,360
Speaker 10: Do you think one CHAMPIONSHI would allow their guys to

1536
01:13:41,400 --> 01:13:44,840
Speaker 10: compete under a UFC. You know, I don't want to

1537
01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:46,680
Speaker 10: say its sponsor about the UFC, but I would say

1538
01:13:46,760 --> 01:13:49,360
Speaker 10: UFC has their their claws in there.

1539
01:13:49,680 --> 01:13:52,040
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean it would have been difficult. I think

1540
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:53,680
Speaker 13: like if it would have been on flat pass, no

1541
01:13:53,760 --> 01:13:56,439
Speaker 13: one championship athletes or no flog grapping athletes would have

1542
01:13:56,439 --> 01:13:58,679
Speaker 13: been had to do it. As it stands free on YouTube,

1543
01:13:58,960 --> 01:14:01,920
Speaker 13: flug grappling athletes can do it, so can one championship

1544
01:14:02,360 --> 01:14:04,240
Speaker 13: respect to one championship. I didn't think they were going

1545
01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:07,599
Speaker 13: to do that initially, and now it's just UFCBG athletes

1546
01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:09,679
Speaker 13: that really come't to our event and I think even

1547
01:14:09,720 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 13: it's love and free on YouTube, it's a singular event.

1548
01:14:12,200 --> 01:14:15,320
Speaker 13: Years we're not creating a league that's a rival. I

1549
01:14:15,479 --> 01:14:18,120
Speaker 13: just felt like it was a petty move to rob

1550
01:14:18,600 --> 01:14:22,599
Speaker 13: the athletes they've signed from a fun opportunity to compete.

1551
01:14:22,680 --> 01:14:25,840
Speaker 13: It is a risk for them, obviously one championship allowed

1552
01:14:25,840 --> 01:14:28,679
Speaker 13: the rotolos in Ty got injured.

1553
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:29,639
Speaker 3: It is a risky.

1554
01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:33,760
Speaker 1: He looks like the red rooster with that haircut. Luke,

1555
01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:36,719
Speaker 1: if Chail ends up beating up half of the Luxer

1556
01:14:36,760 --> 01:14:40,280
Speaker 1: again after mismanaging his dosage, do you think they could

1557
01:14:40,280 --> 01:14:42,400
Speaker 1: get Chatre in for this super fight. It's like an

1558
01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:47,280
Speaker 1: extreme last minute.

1559
01:14:45,560 --> 01:14:49,200
Speaker 2: Well, no one has really good Chill sign and material

1560
01:14:49,439 --> 01:14:50,200
Speaker 2: except you.

1561
01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:53,000
Speaker 1: Maybe apparently I love Jail too, but I know.

1562
01:14:52,960 --> 01:14:54,760
Speaker 2: I love Chaill's so it's I mean, you know, it's

1563
01:14:54,760 --> 01:14:55,479
Speaker 2: funny to me, But.

1564
01:14:56,280 --> 01:14:58,880
Speaker 1: That is interesting, Luke. They offered him, as he says,

1565
01:14:58,920 --> 01:15:01,960
Speaker 1: like dirt money to do the Ultimate Fighter coaching gig

1566
01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,760
Speaker 1: and grappling against Mikey. I was surprised Mikey was allowed

1567
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:06,479
Speaker 1: to even do that debate. I mean, you know what

1568
01:15:06,520 --> 01:15:07,040
Speaker 1: I mean, he.

1569
01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:10,200
Speaker 5: Didn't come off great. Did you watch it at all?

1570
01:15:10,200 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 2: Beyond the watch parts of it.

1571
01:15:11,560 --> 01:15:15,759
Speaker 1: But you know Luca's grappling if it's not Gabby Gabby

1572
01:15:16,080 --> 01:15:19,439
Speaker 1: Garcia and the guy from Karate Combat making me laugh,

1573
01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:24,040
Speaker 1: you know, exclusively. Yeah, I mean that guy's just brilliant.

1574
01:15:24,080 --> 01:15:27,680
Speaker 1: So no, here's Greg Craig one more talking about the

1575
01:15:27,760 --> 01:15:30,640
Speaker 1: success of CJI.

1576
01:15:30,320 --> 01:15:33,200
Speaker 13: Part one million dollars potentially.

1577
01:15:34,080 --> 01:15:35,719
Speaker 11: So how many people are there in jiu jitsu?

1578
01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:38,920
Speaker 14: A huge amount, right, and only two people have made

1579
01:15:38,960 --> 01:15:40,920
Speaker 14: the million dollars like you said, And that's great for them,

1580
01:15:41,000 --> 01:15:44,200
Speaker 14: Kate and Nikki. They did amazing, right, but didn't your

1581
01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:46,960
Speaker 14: first event lose millions of dollars doing that? So you

1582
01:15:47,040 --> 01:15:49,439
Speaker 14: lost money from an investor doing that. So is that

1583
01:15:49,479 --> 01:15:52,160
Speaker 14: actually a successful event? It's successful because you helped our

1584
01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:55,360
Speaker 14: sport grow making money, But how can we do that?

1585
01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:57,120
Speaker 14: How could that sustain anything long term?

1586
01:15:57,200 --> 01:15:59,400
Speaker 13: Well, I think it's successful because the UFC copied it.

1587
01:16:00,840 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 3: So it's.

1588
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:06,960
Speaker 13: Only if you have a shot. Come on, I have

1589
01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:07,680
Speaker 13: one shot with me.

1590
01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:10,679
Speaker 11: I haven't interrupted yet. I will interrupt you for sure.

1591
01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:14,280
Speaker 11: That's kind of that's that's on the line my hand.

1592
01:16:17,840 --> 01:16:23,280
Speaker 10: Go all right, So you said that it wasn't CJI

1593
01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:26,479
Speaker 10: isn't suss it's not successful? Over a long period of time.

1594
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:29,200
Speaker 10: And I think when me you talked, that wasn't your goal.

1595
01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:30,920
Speaker 10: Your goal was to change the sport of JITs.

1596
01:16:31,000 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 13: Yeah, the first one was to change the sport of

1597
01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 13: the jiu jitsu. Obviously the second one, if we were

1598
01:16:34,640 --> 01:16:38,160
Speaker 13: to sell the streaming rights, we would easily make a

1599
01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:40,679
Speaker 13: profit of it, so it would be a sustainable business.

1600
01:16:41,600 --> 01:16:43,360
Speaker 13: So I kind of feel like we could prove that

1601
01:16:43,520 --> 01:16:45,360
Speaker 13: for the second one, but we're electing to keep it

1602
01:16:45,479 --> 01:16:48,000
Speaker 13: live and free your YouTube, So it is, in my opinion,

1603
01:16:48,040 --> 01:16:51,920
Speaker 13: a sustainable business model in which athletes could have the

1604
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:55,519
Speaker 13: exclusive contracts and still challenge the best grapplers in a

1605
01:16:55,560 --> 01:16:56,679
Speaker 13: cj I like format.

1606
01:17:02,560 --> 01:17:05,839
Speaker 1: Yes, Mikey, did he end up drinking the tequila?

1607
01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:08,439
Speaker 2: I think he did? Yeah, all right, all right.

1608
01:17:09,000 --> 01:17:11,559
Speaker 1: Do you think that Craig Jones could tap out or no?

1609
01:17:15,560 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 2: Yes? Yeah, I mean it wouldn't be be tough, but

1610
01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:19,360
Speaker 2: it could be done.

1611
01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:22,879
Speaker 1: And do you believe you FC copied CJI?

1612
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:25,880
Speaker 2: I don't, you know. I can't prove that.

1613
01:17:26,120 --> 01:17:29,400
Speaker 5: I I don't know exactly how they came to create

1614
01:17:29,400 --> 01:17:32,080
Speaker 5: everything that they did, but it does seem a little

1615
01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:37,320
Speaker 5: odd that, you know, they borrow a slanted kind of

1616
01:17:37,360 --> 01:17:41,599
Speaker 5: thing after cj I one was an enormous success. So yeah,

1617
01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:43,240
Speaker 5: you know, it's hard for me to see that there's

1618
01:17:43,280 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 5: not some kind of influence there.

1619
01:17:45,120 --> 01:17:47,559
Speaker 1: Do you feel like Craig is going to make this

1620
01:17:47,640 --> 01:17:50,519
Speaker 1: second one of success even with losing Gable or or

1621
01:17:50,560 --> 01:17:52,519
Speaker 1: do you are you getting the feeling, like with you

1622
01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:56,120
Speaker 1: with the t k O Tentacles, that that this could

1623
01:17:56,160 --> 01:17:56,920
Speaker 1: be the last one?

1624
01:17:57,520 --> 01:18:00,519
Speaker 5: I well, that's the interesting part because, like again C one,

1625
01:18:00,600 --> 01:18:04,000
Speaker 5: it was CJI versus adc C at the same time

1626
01:18:04,200 --> 01:18:08,519
Speaker 5: in Vegas, so like the entire grappling world, not the

1627
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,479
Speaker 5: entire grappling world, but the entire jiu jitsu world had

1628
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:14,320
Speaker 5: kind of descended on Las Vegas and there was like it.

1629
01:18:14,240 --> 01:18:16,679
Speaker 2: Was the show versus the show.

1630
01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:20,200
Speaker 5: And now you don't have that element, and UFC is

1631
01:18:20,320 --> 01:18:23,640
Speaker 5: kind of playing, you know, prevent defense rather than you know,

1632
01:18:24,000 --> 01:18:27,519
Speaker 5: ADCC was somewhat somewhat leaning into the rivalry back then.

1633
01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:29,599
Speaker 5: It just doesn't the same kind of thing. As I mentioned,

1634
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 5: I think Craig has done an enormous amount of work

1635
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:34,960
Speaker 5: to try and promote this thing, but that is only

1636
01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:38,840
Speaker 5: so much one guy can do. CJI two, relative to

1637
01:18:38,880 --> 01:18:41,360
Speaker 5: the first one, is absolutely flying under the radar and

1638
01:18:41,400 --> 01:18:43,080
Speaker 5: what does that mean for the creation of a third one.

1639
01:18:43,120 --> 01:18:43,960
Speaker 5: I really don't know.

1640
01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:47,040
Speaker 2: Craig also said on this very show that he might

1641
01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:48,599
Speaker 2: just disappear after CJI two.

1642
01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:50,960
Speaker 5: You know, he might just be done with Well he's

1643
01:18:50,960 --> 01:18:52,560
Speaker 5: going to be in jack Dale in Adelantis camp. But

1644
01:18:52,600 --> 01:18:54,800
Speaker 5: you know, who knows what relationship to jiujitsu wal have,

1645
01:18:55,040 --> 01:18:57,960
Speaker 5: So you know, yes, I would say there's some pretty

1646
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,840
Speaker 5: big stakes on this event's success and what it means

1647
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:01,439
Speaker 5: for the future.

1648
01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:06,120
Speaker 1: Finally, here's Craig talking about those exclusive contracts. One more talk.

1649
01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:10,479
Speaker 9: Do you think exclusivity and jiu jitsu is a good thing.

1650
01:19:11,479 --> 01:19:14,680
Speaker 14: I think exclusivity in jiu jitsu is important if the

1651
01:19:14,800 --> 01:19:18,160
Speaker 14: organization could actually back what they say right, If they

1652
01:19:18,160 --> 01:19:20,679
Speaker 14: could give you a certain amount of matches, a salary

1653
01:19:20,720 --> 01:19:23,080
Speaker 14: for those matches, they give you the marketing to grow

1654
01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,479
Speaker 14: your brand and exposure like long term like growing your brand,

1655
01:19:26,479 --> 01:19:27,519
Speaker 14: then I think it's important.

1656
01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:29,639
Speaker 11: If they can't do that, then I think it's horrible.

1657
01:19:30,160 --> 01:19:33,160
Speaker 14: I think that exclusivity saves athletes from pulling out of

1658
01:19:33,160 --> 01:19:35,840
Speaker 14: events from other events, you know, I think that's very

1659
01:19:35,880 --> 01:19:40,679
Speaker 14: important because what stops some millionaire giving an Australian money

1660
01:19:40,920 --> 01:19:43,320
Speaker 14: to poach people from an event, so then they can't

1661
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:46,080
Speaker 14: do their event. What stops that from happening without exclusivity?

1662
01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:48,920
Speaker 14: So I think that that's important because of some of

1663
01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:49,439
Speaker 14: those reasons.

1664
01:19:49,439 --> 01:19:52,760
Speaker 10: I just said, Okay, Craig, do you think exclusivity in

1665
01:19:53,120 --> 01:19:56,360
Speaker 10: jiu jitsu is a good thing? Obviously UFCBJ and I

1666
01:19:56,400 --> 01:19:58,479
Speaker 10: know who's number one, and I believe there's a couple

1667
01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:01,080
Speaker 10: other ones that have exclusivity. But how do you feel

1668
01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:04,519
Speaker 10: out that contract biting down the athlete.

1669
01:20:04,920 --> 01:20:06,799
Speaker 13: I mean, it's good if they get paid, but UFC

1670
01:20:07,040 --> 01:20:09,840
Speaker 13: PJJ is one good athlete in each white division, so

1671
01:20:09,880 --> 01:20:14,040
Speaker 13: there's no good interesting matches. Second book, who's your next opponent, Mikey.

1672
01:20:14,760 --> 01:20:17,080
Speaker 11: I'm not I'm not allowed to say what's his caliber?

1673
01:20:17,160 --> 01:20:20,759
Speaker 13: Top ten? Yes, top ten, top five.

1674
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:23,880
Speaker 9: Top ten, top five in nogi or in gee?

1675
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:26,880
Speaker 13: Has he competed in nougi before?

1676
01:20:27,040 --> 01:20:27,640
Speaker 1: Absolutely?

1677
01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:30,320
Speaker 11: I don't want to interrupt you.

1678
01:20:30,360 --> 01:20:31,960
Speaker 13: Sorry, you don't want to show them?

1679
01:20:32,120 --> 01:20:34,240
Speaker 11: Well, you asked me a question, so so it's a

1680
01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:35,679
Speaker 11: good punt, yes, sir.

1681
01:20:36,400 --> 01:20:39,479
Speaker 13: But for the most part, do UFC BJJ have the

1682
01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:44,040
Speaker 13: best athletes enough for good athletes to warrant exclusive contracts?

1683
01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:46,920
Speaker 9: Well, I think no, no, no, no, no, no no no.

1684
01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:50,840
Speaker 10: I think it's more about neither they're having enough good athletes.

1685
01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:54,000
Speaker 9: Is exclusivity good for jiu jitsu? Right?

1686
01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:56,080
Speaker 10: Like, I don't ever forget what chelse on It said,

1687
01:20:56,120 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 10: I want to fight the ease. I want to make

1688
01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:00,799
Speaker 10: as much money as possible if fight the easiest athlete

1689
01:21:00,800 --> 01:21:01,360
Speaker 10: in the world.

1690
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:08,400
Speaker 1: Fine, Luke, you're right. Mikey doesn't come across great here.

1691
01:21:08,400 --> 01:21:11,040
Speaker 1: It's almost as if like there's no way he could

1692
01:21:11,080 --> 01:21:14,760
Speaker 1: have done this without being a corporate hill in a sense. Right,

1693
01:21:14,800 --> 01:21:16,960
Speaker 1: so he kind of just looks bad. But if they

1694
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:20,120
Speaker 1: ever remake Lucas, that classic eighties movie with Corey Haym

1695
01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:24,720
Speaker 1: and Charlie Sheen, I mean he fits the part perfectly,

1696
01:21:24,840 --> 01:21:25,280
Speaker 1: all right.

1697
01:21:26,080 --> 01:21:27,760
Speaker 2: I haven't seen that one and quite some time. That's

1698
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:28,439
Speaker 2: a deep cut.

1699
01:21:28,600 --> 01:21:31,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that is right there. So that is cj

1700
01:21:31,280 --> 01:21:35,599
Speaker 1: I two this weekend, Saturday and Sunday and live on

1701
01:21:35,680 --> 01:21:39,960
Speaker 1: the B Team YouTube page and maybe maybe live on

1702
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:44,599
Speaker 1: direct on Luke Thomas at YouTube dot com. Right, that's right,

1703
01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:47,280
Speaker 1: all right, so check that out. I mean, is there

1704
01:21:47,280 --> 01:21:49,960
Speaker 1: going to be a team winner or an individual winner

1705
01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:50,360
Speaker 1: in the end?

1706
01:21:50,880 --> 01:21:54,040
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, so a team winner is how I

1707
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:58,960
Speaker 5: would answer that, but recall that one person could conceivably

1708
01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:03,040
Speaker 5: run the table on the other teams or team or whatever,

1709
01:22:03,400 --> 01:22:06,720
Speaker 5: such that there could be clearly a standout performer, but

1710
01:22:06,920 --> 01:22:10,000
Speaker 5: technically the million dollars will be awarded to the team.

1711
01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:14,120
Speaker 1: Indeed, indeed, all right, let's transition to our final topic

1712
01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:17,400
Speaker 1: of the day, topic number four, and we're looking at

1713
01:22:17,439 --> 01:22:20,640
Speaker 1: the UFC schedule, which has certainly come together here for

1714
01:22:20,720 --> 01:22:24,000
Speaker 1: the end of summer, the totality of fall. But how

1715
01:22:24,000 --> 01:22:26,680
Speaker 1: about those two big ones on the calendar yet to

1716
01:22:26,720 --> 01:22:30,719
Speaker 1: be publicly decided, of course, the annual December Las Vegas

1717
01:22:30,760 --> 01:22:33,920
Speaker 1: pay per view, which will go down officially at least

1718
01:22:33,920 --> 01:22:36,719
Speaker 1: in this era as the final actual pay per view,

1719
01:22:37,000 --> 01:22:40,439
Speaker 1: with UFC then transitioning in January of twenty six to

1720
01:22:40,600 --> 01:22:44,800
Speaker 1: Paramount slash CBS having all of their numbered cards on

1721
01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:48,320
Speaker 1: Paramount Plus and going off of that pay per view model.

1722
01:22:48,560 --> 01:22:51,000
Speaker 1: I think we're supposed to be calling them ples premium

1723
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: live events moving forward. But from the standpoint of who

1724
01:22:54,160 --> 01:22:56,800
Speaker 1: will close out their final pay per view and who

1725
01:22:56,880 --> 01:22:59,880
Speaker 1: will kick off their first card in January, which is

1726
01:23:00,040 --> 01:23:03,120
Speaker 1: yet to be announced on Paramount, We've got a few

1727
01:23:03,200 --> 01:23:06,080
Speaker 1: things to talk about. We know Islam is off the

1728
01:23:06,080 --> 01:23:09,240
Speaker 1: board now against JDM. We know a few other fights

1729
01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 1: are Luke. When we're looking at December in January that

1730
01:23:12,880 --> 01:23:15,519
Speaker 1: Ilio rumor did not come through, whether he's gonna end

1731
01:23:15,560 --> 01:23:19,840
Speaker 1: up fighting gai Chie Armand or Patty, maybe I'm looking

1732
01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:21,800
Speaker 1: at how do you think it plays out? Or maybe

1733
01:23:21,880 --> 01:23:24,400
Speaker 1: if you want, how would you like it to play out?

1734
01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:28,200
Speaker 1: Because these are two strategic cards. If UFC's gonna finish

1735
01:23:28,280 --> 01:23:30,080
Speaker 1: this pay per view run, they may have a chance

1736
01:23:30,120 --> 01:23:32,519
Speaker 1: to cash in big one more time in December if

1737
01:23:32,560 --> 01:23:33,080
Speaker 1: they load it.

1738
01:23:33,400 --> 01:23:35,600
Speaker 5: No, I'm misunderstanding you. What do you mean how do

1739
01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 5: I want which event to play out?

1740
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:39,479
Speaker 1: In terms of who you know, the main and co

1741
01:23:39,640 --> 01:23:42,760
Speaker 1: main events, who is looking like in your eyes could

1742
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:45,719
Speaker 1: and should populate the top end of these cards, because

1743
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:47,559
Speaker 1: there is that potential that they load up for a

1744
01:23:47,600 --> 01:23:49,760
Speaker 1: final pay per view to get as much money as

1745
01:23:49,760 --> 01:23:52,200
Speaker 1: they can. And then obviously we're hoping they kick off

1746
01:23:52,200 --> 01:23:56,160
Speaker 1: this paramount era with a bang with biggest star available.

1747
01:23:56,240 --> 01:23:58,240
Speaker 1: But a lot of those big stars are fighting in

1748
01:23:58,280 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 1: the next few months.

1749
01:23:59,360 --> 01:24:02,439
Speaker 5: I mean, if I'm doing my math right, I think

1750
01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:05,439
Speaker 5: the last event that the UFC is going to have

1751
01:24:05,520 --> 01:24:08,720
Speaker 5: in the ESPN era is now. We don't know this

1752
01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:12,000
Speaker 5: because they haven't fully announced anything, but it looks like

1753
01:24:12,080 --> 01:24:14,320
Speaker 5: to me, just based on a number of the normal

1754
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:15,840
Speaker 5: events they have in the course of a year, that

1755
01:24:16,200 --> 01:24:18,920
Speaker 5: you're going the last pay per view of the year

1756
01:24:18,960 --> 01:24:21,000
Speaker 5: is not going to be the last event of the year.

1757
01:24:21,439 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 5: I think it's probably going to be an APEX event,

1758
01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:25,600
Speaker 5: unless they announce it as something on the road. I

1759
01:24:25,680 --> 01:24:27,240
Speaker 5: have to tell you, if the last event in the

1760
01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:30,120
Speaker 5: ESPN era is an APEX event, that is somewhat fitting,

1761
01:24:30,200 --> 01:24:30,479
Speaker 5: is it not?

1762
01:24:31,000 --> 01:24:33,160
Speaker 1: I mean it is, but really I'm talking about the

1763
01:24:33,160 --> 01:24:34,320
Speaker 1: December pay per view as.

1764
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:35,839
Speaker 2: I understand, I understand, I understand.

1765
01:24:35,880 --> 01:24:37,439
Speaker 5: The point I'm trying to make is I don't know

1766
01:24:37,439 --> 01:24:39,280
Speaker 5: how much of a priority going out on pay per

1767
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:41,200
Speaker 5: view as a bang when you're walking into a one

1768
01:24:41,280 --> 01:24:44,080
Speaker 5: point one billion dollar a year deal point.

1769
01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:45,680
Speaker 2: I don't know that.

1770
01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:47,360
Speaker 5: I mean to your like, I don't think they're going

1771
01:24:47,400 --> 01:24:49,200
Speaker 5: to phone it in, That's not my point, but like,

1772
01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:50,720
Speaker 5: are they going to try and load it up? My

1773
01:24:50,800 --> 01:24:53,599
Speaker 5: thought is this PC. Here's how I'm thinking about it.

1774
01:24:54,360 --> 01:24:58,080
Speaker 5: My thought is all this could change depending on who's available,

1775
01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:01,080
Speaker 5: who gets injured, you name it, but you gotta go

1776
01:25:01,200 --> 01:25:05,000
Speaker 5: with Vulk Laron Murphy as your December pay per view. Now,

1777
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,880
Speaker 5: the question is what do you marry that with. I

1778
01:25:07,880 --> 01:25:09,920
Speaker 5: think there's a good chance that you marry that with

1779
01:25:10,000 --> 01:25:13,320
Speaker 5: Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunez. However, what you might say is,

1780
01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:16,720
Speaker 5: wouldn't you want Kayla Harrison and Amanda Nunez to headline?

1781
01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:19,360
Speaker 5: That is also a possibility. I don't know how to

1782
01:25:19,400 --> 01:25:22,479
Speaker 5: answer that. What I do think is likely, though, is

1783
01:25:22,479 --> 01:25:25,280
Speaker 5: that one way or the other. I think Vulk versus

1784
01:25:25,360 --> 01:25:29,280
Speaker 5: Murphy probably ends up headlining your December pay per view

1785
01:25:30,160 --> 01:25:34,080
Speaker 5: for January. And now we call them numbered events. Poli's right,

1786
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:36,120
Speaker 5: I guess that's what they're called.

1787
01:25:36,560 --> 01:25:36,680
Speaker 1: Uh.

1788
01:25:37,880 --> 01:25:41,000
Speaker 5: I think you go Ilia Taporia. Now the question is

1789
01:25:41,240 --> 01:25:44,479
Speaker 5: what direction you go? I think we both got fooled

1790
01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:47,479
Speaker 5: by some fake news. Ilia Taporia's manager did not put

1791
01:25:47,479 --> 01:25:51,800
Speaker 5: out a statement like you know, Viacondios Geichie.

1792
01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:53,479
Speaker 2: Or whatever it was that was not true.

1793
01:25:53,520 --> 01:25:57,160
Speaker 5: It is true that that Anatomikano said he was hearing

1794
01:25:57,880 --> 01:26:00,760
Speaker 5: that Geichi was next for Ilia at two. But then

1795
01:26:00,760 --> 01:26:02,080
Speaker 5: we just saw what happened with three twenty two.

1796
01:26:02,120 --> 01:26:04,679
Speaker 1: So the question is, dude, I'll get Mma senteld any

1797
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:05,680
Speaker 1: any moment of the day.

1798
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:07,519
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, I mean there's a lot of fake news

1799
01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:10,040
Speaker 5: you have. It's it's tougher than it looks to constantly

1800
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:11,719
Speaker 5: get out of the way of it. But the point

1801
01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:16,160
Speaker 5: being is, I think Vulk Murphy headlines three twenty three

1802
01:26:17,040 --> 01:26:21,439
Speaker 5: and then three twenty four is gonna be iliya. Do

1803
01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:23,920
Speaker 5: they go sar Yuki NBC? Do they give him that

1804
01:26:24,080 --> 01:26:26,880
Speaker 5: right away? Do they go with the old warhorse in Gaechee?

1805
01:26:27,120 --> 01:26:29,479
Speaker 5: I don't think it's Patty Pimblet. That just doesn't sound

1806
01:26:29,560 --> 01:26:32,839
Speaker 5: right to me. But something like that and Amanda Nunez

1807
01:26:33,160 --> 01:26:36,800
Speaker 5: and Kayla Harrison could potentially serve as the co main

1808
01:26:36,880 --> 01:26:39,680
Speaker 5: event in either of those, but I don't know who

1809
01:26:39,720 --> 01:26:42,360
Speaker 5: would be a secondary co main event necessarily that you

1810
01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:43,240
Speaker 5: would throw in there.

1811
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:45,719
Speaker 2: That's my general observation Long Island.

1812
01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:48,080
Speaker 1: Luke just updated us the other half of that rumor

1813
01:26:48,120 --> 01:26:51,960
Speaker 1: that that was Senteld to be the MSG Colemane, which

1814
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:55,080
Speaker 1: is Pantogy defending the title against Josh Van which has

1815
01:26:55,120 --> 01:26:57,080
Speaker 1: a lot of interest. So what about if it goes

1816
01:26:57,240 --> 01:26:59,680
Speaker 1: and I like the idea of Vulcar Vulk Murphy in

1817
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:03,040
Speaker 1: the main event in December, Van versus Pantosia for the

1818
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:07,120
Speaker 1: Flyway title on the Coomane And what about this three

1819
01:27:07,479 --> 01:27:10,880
Speaker 1: fight top of the card banger for the first January

1820
01:27:10,920 --> 01:27:14,920
Speaker 1: pl e. This is me maybe wishful thinking. Well, I

1821
01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:19,240
Speaker 1: don't think Geechee is the best possible opponent for Toporia.

1822
01:27:19,600 --> 01:27:21,759
Speaker 1: He does carry a name, he does carry a reputation

1823
01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:24,640
Speaker 1: for action and all that. So what if it's Toporia

1824
01:27:24,760 --> 01:27:30,400
Speaker 1: Goichie main event, Amanda Kayla comane event and then armand

1825
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:34,040
Speaker 1: versus Patty as you're supporting about for the next shot

1826
01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:35,200
Speaker 1: at the winner of the main event.

1827
01:27:38,680 --> 01:27:41,479
Speaker 5: I don't hate it, but you know what, the voice

1828
01:27:41,479 --> 01:27:43,720
Speaker 5: of the people is really Long Island, Luke, Long Island, Luke.

1829
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:46,280
Speaker 2: Where are we at here?

1830
01:27:46,600 --> 01:27:48,840
Speaker 1: Like? Or do we all think Kamza is not going

1831
01:27:48,880 --> 01:27:52,600
Speaker 1: to be considered because of the wrestling and the unreliability

1832
01:27:52,600 --> 01:27:53,840
Speaker 1: for the January Well you.

1833
01:27:53,840 --> 01:27:56,920
Speaker 5: Have to also think, whoever you're picking in January, how

1834
01:27:56,960 --> 01:27:58,960
Speaker 5: does that affect the White House card? That is also

1835
01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:02,759
Speaker 5: a relevant thing you can ignore. So so Long Island,

1836
01:28:03,160 --> 01:28:06,800
Speaker 5: who is headlining three twenty three and then three twenty

1837
01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:08,240
Speaker 5: four Comaine in either direction?

1838
01:28:09,000 --> 01:28:11,639
Speaker 6: Three twenty three I'm going Murphy Volk, but I'm gonna

1839
01:28:11,640 --> 01:28:16,200
Speaker 6: say the comaine is Pantosia van Okay and then January.

1840
01:28:16,200 --> 01:28:17,960
Speaker 6: I'm gonna say they start with a bang in that

1841
01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:20,280
Speaker 6: era and not that this is the fight I want.

1842
01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,960
Speaker 6: In fact, it's third on my list, but Iliyah Patty

1843
01:28:24,160 --> 01:28:25,600
Speaker 6: has to be the headliner for that.

1844
01:28:26,200 --> 01:28:27,439
Speaker 2: Do you think they pulled that trigger?

1845
01:28:27,720 --> 01:28:30,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, because I think, like, personally I want Arman, but

1846
01:28:30,120 --> 01:28:32,720
Speaker 6: I just like from a fan, let's get as much

1847
01:28:32,800 --> 01:28:35,600
Speaker 6: people subscribe in a paramount plus as quickly as spot like,

1848
01:28:35,640 --> 01:28:38,120
Speaker 6: that's the fight you see with I think, And I

1849
01:28:38,160 --> 01:28:39,840
Speaker 6: don't really think it matters what you put under it.

1850
01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:43,240
Speaker 6: Kayla and Amanda's a perfect comaine under that, although I

1851
01:28:43,280 --> 01:28:45,479
Speaker 6: think that could actually headline on its own.

1852
01:28:45,479 --> 01:28:48,640
Speaker 5: But if that's that's the issue with that's a killer comaine.

1853
01:28:48,640 --> 01:28:50,759
Speaker 5: But it's killer enough to headline on its.

1854
01:28:50,640 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 1: Own about Armin versus Gaetchee as that comane and always

1855
01:28:56,360 --> 01:28:59,040
Speaker 1: forgetting that that Morob wants to defend the title four

1856
01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:01,240
Speaker 1: times this year and set the UFC record. Does he

1857
01:29:01,360 --> 01:29:04,960
Speaker 1: get squeezed into December if he doesn't take damage coming up?

1858
01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:11,080
Speaker 7: No, because they'll probably announce it by October fourth, I would.

1859
01:29:10,840 --> 01:29:12,679
Speaker 2: Think, right right.

1860
01:29:13,520 --> 01:29:17,479
Speaker 5: Also, like dude is Gegee gonna fight Arman. You know,

1861
01:29:17,640 --> 01:29:21,240
Speaker 5: I could see Geigee fighting Pimblet because it's a big

1862
01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:24,080
Speaker 5: enough name where you could you could ricochet off of that, right,

1863
01:29:24,160 --> 01:29:27,599
Speaker 5: But dude, Armond's in a tough spot because he's fucking

1864
01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:32,080
Speaker 5: good and the UFC brass is probably not as mad

1865
01:29:32,080 --> 01:29:34,080
Speaker 5: at him as they once were, but they clearly are

1866
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:36,200
Speaker 5: not fucking happy with him, you know, Like it's a

1867
01:29:36,240 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 5: tough spot.

1868
01:29:36,960 --> 01:29:37,160
Speaker 2: Man.

1869
01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:40,439
Speaker 1: Now, the people we haven't mentioned who could do this,

1870
01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:44,120
Speaker 1: Tom's Out's one of them. But like we said, he

1871
01:29:44,240 --> 01:29:47,240
Speaker 1: was dominant, he wasn't overly exciting. And do you do

1872
01:29:47,320 --> 01:29:50,160
Speaker 1: you risk the idea of his unreliability for that spot?

1873
01:29:50,800 --> 01:29:53,440
Speaker 1: What about the fact that both John Jones and McGregor

1874
01:29:53,560 --> 01:29:59,000
Speaker 1: are seemingly training and in the testing pool. I'm not saying,

1875
01:29:59,040 --> 01:30:01,439
Speaker 1: you know, we would love John Jones against Derek Lewis

1876
01:30:01,479 --> 01:30:04,280
Speaker 1: or something like that, but if the idea is to

1877
01:30:04,400 --> 01:30:06,880
Speaker 1: kick off the CBS paramount, and I believe me, I

1878
01:30:06,880 --> 01:30:10,200
Speaker 1: have zero inside information on this with an absolute bang,

1879
01:30:10,240 --> 01:30:12,799
Speaker 1: and they have done that in the Fox and ESPN eras.

1880
01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:17,040
Speaker 1: Luke could just see them inserting either Connor or Jones

1881
01:30:17,520 --> 01:30:20,479
Speaker 1: just to like completely light that match of bringing back

1882
01:30:20,760 --> 01:30:22,800
Speaker 1: every possible lapse fan that they.

1883
01:30:22,680 --> 01:30:26,240
Speaker 2: Can for January? Yes, no?

1884
01:30:26,760 --> 01:30:28,679
Speaker 1: Or are you saving both for the White House?

1885
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:32,000
Speaker 5: I don't know what the UFC is supposed to do

1886
01:30:32,120 --> 01:30:34,719
Speaker 5: with either of them. First of all, I'd be happy

1887
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:36,479
Speaker 5: if we never saw him again. But that's a first

1888
01:30:37,240 --> 01:30:41,200
Speaker 5: personal personal opinion. I realized everyone's going to be different.

1889
01:30:41,560 --> 01:30:43,320
Speaker 1: Well, you could see Connor Nate three at the White

1890
01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:44,440
Speaker 1: House easily.

1891
01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:44,479
Speaker 3: You could.

1892
01:30:44,720 --> 01:30:47,040
Speaker 5: I think you could. I think you could. I think

1893
01:30:47,200 --> 01:30:51,320
Speaker 5: I think you really could. The Jones one is more interesting,

1894
01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:54,160
Speaker 5: right because in the sense that, like again you know,

1895
01:30:54,400 --> 01:30:57,360
Speaker 5: to me, he's effectively retired whatever else happens. And to

1896
01:30:57,400 --> 01:30:59,920
Speaker 5: that point, b see, like, how do you know he

1897
01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,920
Speaker 5: won't mess up between now and then? Like you just don't.

1898
01:31:03,040 --> 01:31:03,920
Speaker 5: Like that's why you.

1899
01:31:03,880 --> 01:31:07,080
Speaker 1: Give them, That's why you give them, like the proving fight,

1900
01:31:07,240 --> 01:31:08,080
Speaker 1: you give them.

1901
01:31:07,880 --> 01:31:09,599
Speaker 2: Like the like who Derek Lewis.

1902
01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:11,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think Lewis. But what if they gave

1903
01:31:11,920 --> 01:31:15,920
Speaker 1: him a comin opportunity on the January card to earn

1904
01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:19,160
Speaker 1: his respect back? Because they're thinking, what's the best main

1905
01:31:19,160 --> 01:31:21,759
Speaker 1: event we can make for July fourth, it might actually

1906
01:31:21,760 --> 01:31:23,560
Speaker 1: be Jones aspinall, Seriously.

1907
01:31:24,520 --> 01:31:25,920
Speaker 2: Are we doing this again? Dude, the guy.

1908
01:31:25,960 --> 01:31:27,720
Speaker 1: I don't want to do this again, but like.

1909
01:31:27,840 --> 01:31:29,760
Speaker 5: I'll say this, I'll say this, I'll say this, I'll

1910
01:31:29,760 --> 01:31:33,320
Speaker 5: say this. We should imagine what it might mean for

1911
01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:37,760
Speaker 5: Jones's return in the event that Aspinall gets smoked. Right,

1912
01:31:38,320 --> 01:31:41,000
Speaker 5: what if he does lose to God? And I've said

1913
01:31:41,000 --> 01:31:44,920
Speaker 5: this since day one, the reason to make Jones Aspinall

1914
01:31:45,160 --> 01:31:47,720
Speaker 5: is maybe you might believe that Aspinall is the toughest test,

1915
01:31:47,760 --> 01:31:50,320
Speaker 5: and there's certainly plenty good reason to believe that, But

1916
01:31:50,360 --> 01:31:52,400
Speaker 5: really that's not the reason. The reason is that that's

1917
01:31:52,439 --> 01:31:54,320
Speaker 5: the guy he's supposed to fight. There's no one else

1918
01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:55,000
Speaker 5: more deserving.

1919
01:31:55,200 --> 01:31:57,880
Speaker 2: Like we've been over that a million miles a million times.

1920
01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:01,160
Speaker 5: What I'm trying to say is you're responsibility to the

1921
01:32:01,200 --> 01:32:04,080
Speaker 5: most deserving guy. But the most deserving guy, as I

1922
01:32:04,240 --> 01:32:06,120
Speaker 5: say all the time, there's a lot that's really not

1923
01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:06,880
Speaker 5: known about him.

1924
01:32:07,280 --> 01:32:09,840
Speaker 2: We just don't know. So what if he loses to God,

1925
01:32:10,479 --> 01:32:11,240
Speaker 2: you might see.

1926
01:32:11,120 --> 01:32:14,280
Speaker 5: John like like running to get back, you know, into

1927
01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:18,400
Speaker 5: the UFC heavyweight division, in which case, yes, January could

1928
01:32:18,479 --> 01:32:20,559
Speaker 5: potentially be you know, especially if it's a fight that's

1929
01:32:20,560 --> 01:32:22,320
Speaker 5: real winnable against somebody who can't really wrestle.

1930
01:32:22,800 --> 01:32:24,320
Speaker 2: Dude, they might do exactly that.

1931
01:32:24,400 --> 01:32:27,800
Speaker 5: You know, I would if Volkov ends up beating Almeida

1932
01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:29,400
Speaker 5: and they want to do Jones Volkov as like a

1933
01:32:29,439 --> 01:32:30,000
Speaker 5: return fight.

1934
01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:30,559
Speaker 3: Dude.

1935
01:32:30,600 --> 01:32:32,200
Speaker 1: That's not awful. That's not awful.

1936
01:32:32,240 --> 01:32:34,760
Speaker 2: I mean it's conceivable, right, it's conceivable.

1937
01:32:35,439 --> 01:32:38,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, totally totally conceivable. We'll have to wait and see.

1938
01:32:38,600 --> 01:32:40,519
Speaker 1: Let's go, let's see what they do. Well, they kick

1939
01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:43,320
Speaker 1: it off on Jan six on the steps. I don't know, Luke,

1940
01:32:43,360 --> 01:32:44,880
Speaker 1: they seem to like big dude.

1941
01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:48,120
Speaker 2: There was a guy who rode I was.

1942
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:51,200
Speaker 5: I went bike riding with my neighbor and I took

1943
01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:53,479
Speaker 5: Tuki and then their kids. We all went bike riding

1944
01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:57,040
Speaker 5: nearby and we paused for one moment so like the

1945
01:32:57,120 --> 01:33:00,120
Speaker 5: kids could get some water, and a dude biked by.

1946
01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:01,760
Speaker 2: He looked like he was from the city.

1947
01:33:01,840 --> 01:33:03,920
Speaker 5: I think he was wearing it ironically, but it said

1948
01:33:04,560 --> 01:33:07,800
Speaker 5: Washington DC Jan sixers on it like like a like

1949
01:33:07,880 --> 01:33:10,080
Speaker 5: a like a you don't have a picture.

1950
01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:11,000
Speaker 2: Of the Capitol on it and everything.

1951
01:33:11,120 --> 01:33:13,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was, and my neighbor goes did his shirt

1952
01:33:13,880 --> 01:33:16,920
Speaker 5: just say Jan sixers? And I was like, indeed, did indeed?

1953
01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:19,280
Speaker 1: You see that guy's bulls, they were weird. Yeah, I

1954
01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:21,680
Speaker 1: got you, I got you, all right, those are our

1955
01:33:21,680 --> 01:33:24,600
Speaker 1: topics for the week. Now we transition into our two

1956
01:33:24,640 --> 01:33:28,559
Speaker 1: Friday fan fund segments, or are they that's your choice.

1957
01:33:28,640 --> 01:33:32,000
Speaker 1: But Morningcombat dot gmail dot com is your portal to

1958
01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:34,960
Speaker 1: send Mikey pictures of your scrap, of your uh, your

1959
01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:38,680
Speaker 1: damn satchel, and also to send in pictures of you

1960
01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:41,400
Speaker 1: with Saul's wife wearing an MK shirt. We kick it

1961
01:33:41,400 --> 01:33:43,720
Speaker 1: off with dead wrong. That's our opportunity to take the

1962
01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:49,360
Speaker 1: stand and answer for our bullshit. This one's called did wrong.

1963
01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:51,679
Speaker 2: Then wrong?

1964
01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:58,000
Speaker 1: All right, let's see how pedantic we can get. This

1965
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:00,640
Speaker 1: is from David. He says, BC, you are wrong, you

1966
01:34:00,840 --> 01:34:04,720
Speaker 1: washed pos during the over undersection on Monday show when

1967
01:34:04,720 --> 01:34:08,799
Speaker 1: discussing Alum Walsh being the co main event for Canelo

1968
01:34:08,920 --> 01:34:13,320
Speaker 1: Crawford with your mind on hot dogs and strawweights. The

1969
01:34:13,360 --> 01:34:17,120
Speaker 1: fight was November twelfth, when we all know it's my

1970
01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:21,760
Speaker 1: god thirteen love the show, but get this shit right, yes,

1971
01:34:22,120 --> 01:34:25,160
Speaker 1: only shit, I got that wrong. You're damn right. Now,

1972
01:34:25,520 --> 01:34:27,080
Speaker 1: Where did November twelfth come from?

1973
01:34:27,160 --> 01:34:28,439
Speaker 2: Is something else happening that day?

1974
01:34:28,920 --> 01:34:31,719
Speaker 1: Well, something happened before the show that day, right, long Island,

1975
01:34:31,760 --> 01:34:34,680
Speaker 1: Luke or from our buddy you had espresso.

1976
01:34:34,400 --> 01:34:38,080
Speaker 7: Cannabis oh before that show?

1977
01:34:38,120 --> 01:34:39,920
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, yeah.

1978
01:34:39,760 --> 01:34:43,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I think I know what you're talking about.

1979
01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:45,320
Speaker 1: Okay, so there go, there we go with that. I'll

1980
01:34:45,320 --> 01:34:48,120
Speaker 1: take the l I was dead wrong. The twelfth might

1981
01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:50,439
Speaker 1: be in my mind because that was the original date

1982
01:34:50,479 --> 01:34:53,040
Speaker 1: that they wanted to do Friday, and then Turkey had

1983
01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:55,840
Speaker 1: the issue with Netflix. They ended up. Would you hear

1984
01:34:55,880 --> 01:34:58,360
Speaker 1: that report that the UFC paid UNLV to move their

1985
01:34:58,360 --> 01:35:00,559
Speaker 1: football game out of the Dome that day?

1986
01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:01,519
Speaker 2: I didn't hear that.

1987
01:35:01,640 --> 01:35:05,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so there we go. That's a huge fight, right.

1988
01:35:05,280 --> 01:35:07,840

2145
01:41:48,720 --> 01:41:51,320
Speaker 1: Aloha. This is Telvin, Key Papa, I submit to you

2146
01:41:51,400 --> 01:41:55,040
Speaker 1: a funny meme of lt crashing out on Monday Show.

2147
01:41:55,160 --> 01:41:57,720
Speaker 1: Still love you, Luke, But come on there there are

2148
01:41:57,760 --> 01:42:01,800
Speaker 1: some good fighters with good morals like Macre.

2149
01:42:01,960 --> 01:42:02,759
Speaker 2: That's not the point.

2150
01:42:02,760 --> 01:42:06,400
Speaker 5: Although this is very funny, Luke Thomas was talking about porn, Eliot, Toporia,

2151
01:42:06,479 --> 01:42:09,400
Speaker 5: heavy metal, and samurai tattoos. This is from one of

2152
01:42:09,439 --> 01:42:12,040
Speaker 5: the greatest movies ever made for certainly a martial arts movie,

2153
01:42:12,080 --> 01:42:14,160
Speaker 5: A Big Trouble in Little China. And then there's the

2154
01:42:14,200 --> 01:42:16,759
Speaker 5: scene where that same dude explodes, and he writes, Luke Thomas,

2155
01:42:16,800 --> 01:42:18,240
Speaker 5: we're talking about MMA fighters that.

2156
01:42:20,479 --> 01:42:24,400
