24
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,199
Speaker 1: your hair looks fantastic. You had a lot of lettuce

25
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 1: coming out the back. Seem like your wife liked it.

26
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: But you have effected change. When it comes to your

27
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 1: top region, there can flow. Why why the haircut? And

28
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,479
Speaker 1: you look like you've aged in reverse like five years since?

29
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,680
Speaker 7: Yeah, thank you, ma, Man, I was looking a little homeless. Man,

30
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 7: I'll be honest that that hair was tickling the neck

31
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 7: a little bit. When I try to settle into bed,

32
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 7: I had a bunch of like weird stuff again, hot,

33
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 7: real quickly, sweaty, gross. Yeah, and you know I could

34
00:01:59,160 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 7: only look like a pump for so long. I had

35
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 7: to clean it up a little bit. Got a little

36
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 7: sick and tired of it. The kids don't like it though.

37
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,760
Speaker 7: The kids don't like change, so they kind of get

38
00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 7: a little bit shreaked out.

39
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 6: But I don't know.

40
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 7: They're settling into the new change and I am as well.

41
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 7: But as I was bobbing my head to the mcso

42
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 7: tic DJ seven L song that kicks off this podcast

43
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,839
Speaker 7: every morning, my head felt a little lighter, so that

44
00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 7: that felt good.

45
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,360
Speaker 6: You look like you're thirty five years old.

46
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,200
Speaker 1: You sort of trimmed down the beard a couple of

47
00:02:26,240 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: weeks ago if some of our viewers were to go

48
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: back to a couple shows ago. I mean, pen Clo

49
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: looked like he had been living on a bus in Alaska,

50
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,480
Speaker 1: eating poisonous plants, right, hair coming.

51
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 6: Out the back and fat everything else. But you look good.

52
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 1: It's great to see you, and we have a lot

68

00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: If not, though, that content will still be repurposed as well.

70
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: So Cody dropped the noa sordine Imava pronunciation file for

71
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,480
Speaker 1: you there. I didn't know what it was, but we've

72
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 1: been doing a pronunciation of the week on this show

73
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 1: for a long time, and I really don't want to

74
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 1: be the pronunciation police, right. It's really like a public

75
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:49,080
Speaker 1: service that we provide. There are certain names, such as

76
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: Polish names like you want to Young Jicheck. Those files

77
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: are open to interpretation. And I did not intend, by

78
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: the way, to do this today, but I'm going to

79
00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:58,280
Speaker 1: do it because my producer put me on the spot.

80
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 1: You want to youwn jit check is a name file

81
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: and a name that is open to interpretation. She would

82
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,960
Speaker 1: tell you that none of us Americans with our mouths

83
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 1: can even make the sounds that they make in the

84
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: Polish language, right, So that is a file that is

85
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: open to interpretation as long as you emphasize the right syllable.

86
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 1: Imavov is not so if you're here in imovov from

87
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 1: people to me, it means they're not practicing and they're

88
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 1: not putting in the requisite effort to pronounce, pronounce that

89
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: name correctly. If I'm missing something at John Underscore and

90
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,799
Speaker 1: let me know. But I did push out a tweet

91
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: this weekend, Kenny, because it just feels like to me,

92
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 1: pronunciations at the end of the day, it's about effort.

93
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:39,800
Speaker 1: It's about practice, and if you practice fifty times saying imavov,

94
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: then by the time you get to the octagon, you

95
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 1: shouldn't even need the phonetics.

96
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, man, you know, listen, it's it's a main

97
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,120
Speaker 7: event fighter, right, and you want to do your best

98
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 7: to honor each and every fighter. But yeah, it was

99
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 7: funny just hearing the uh the pronunciation there, imvov. The

100
00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 7: emphasis the emphasis was on the E that first one,

101
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 7: as opposed to E mavov, Right, So a little bit

102
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 7: of an error there.

103
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 1: Well, And I'm not calling out my colleagues necessarily, right,

104
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,880
Speaker 1: I'm not calling out the fan base necessarily. There were

105
00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:14,760
Speaker 1: certain people on that broadcast that absolutely nailed it every

106
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:15,520
Speaker 1: time they uttered it.

107
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 7: But that's while we do it, right, I mean, that's

108
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 7: why we talk about the pronunciation.

109
00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I do have a phone call with the

110
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 1: veteran voice of the Octcom, Gerus Buffer, later today. I

111
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:28,200
Speaker 1: would like talk about these Yeah, we talk about them.

112
00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: We talk about them, all right. So UFC Fight Night,

113
00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,720
Speaker 1: Doldzay versus e Movov. We're gonna wrap the shit out

114
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,840
Speaker 1: of that. We are also going to talk to eighteen

115
00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 1: year NFL veteran Marcedes Lewis. It is Super Bowl week,

116
00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: but perhaps more importantly, he is a diehard UFC fan

117
00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: and that's how I connected with him. So very excited

118
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 1: to talk to the former Jacksonville Jaguar, Green Bay Packer,

119
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:56,799
Speaker 1: Chicago Bear. Marcedes Lewis also scheduled to join us UFC

120
00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 1: Welchway contender Randy Ruboy Brown. He has a fan in

121
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: Ken Flow, that is for sure. So we'll talk to

122
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: Randy Brown after one of the bigger wins of his

123
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,880
Speaker 1: career over the weekend. But I would like to begin,

124
00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,040
Speaker 1: if we could, with this main event Ken Flow Roman

125
00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 1: Delidze versus not Sordine Imava. Now this from Sean Sheen.

126
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,039
Speaker 1: I reckon this will be hard to beat for worst

127
00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,239
Speaker 1: fight of the year when all is said and done,

128
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:22,640
Speaker 1: absolutely awful on both ends. They did absolutely nothing good

129
00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: in the whole fight, and him getting a scorecard isn't

130
00:06:24,960 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 1: out of the realms of possibility.

131
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,400
Speaker 6: That's how bad that fight was.

132
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,320
Speaker 1: And those are two tweets from severe Mma Shan Sheen

133
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,240
Speaker 1: that I compartmentalized into one. So I woke up on

134
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:41,280
Speaker 1: Sunday morning and watched this main event without spoilers, and

135
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 1: I watched the fight on mute. And I don't know

136
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 1: if I was just enjoying my morning coffee and enjoying

137
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,359
Speaker 1: the grueling nature of this main event. But when I

138
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:54,280
Speaker 1: tweeted something positive about this fight Kenny, the fans came

139
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:57,760
Speaker 1: out and drove. So I guess I appreciated the grueling

140
00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 1: nature of it. Certainly I done without some of the

141
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 1: extended periods in the clinch, But I don't know. Man

142
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,800
Speaker 1: Like I work out six days a week, and when

143
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 1: I look at Roman Dalitze, I look at a fighter

144
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,119
Speaker 1: who is digging deep and not giving up and still

145
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: trying to win the fight late, despite perhaps a cardiovascular

146
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 1: base that abandoned him. So I don't know there was

147
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 1: more for me in this main event than I guess

148
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 1: there was for a lot of fans. I would like

149
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: to get your thoughts on it if I could.

150
00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, listen, I think that's interesting. It's an interesting perspective

151
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 7: from Sean Sheen as well. I think the key is,

152
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:31,680
Speaker 7: you know, you can't expect these great fights every single

153
00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 7: time out, and it's very important to understand the nature

154
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 7: of each and every fighter involved, right the style, like

155
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 7: the style matchups, what they're good at and what they're

156
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 7: not good at. And if you're surprised that Dalite looked

157
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,920
Speaker 7: sloppy on the feet, then you probably haven't watched a

158
00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,080
Speaker 7: whole lot of Roman Delite fights, and maybe you haven't

159
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:55,320
Speaker 7: watched a lot of imov Offs fights because he is

160
00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 7: extremely technical, really had the advantage there. I think Dalitze

161
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 7: looked really sloppy at times on the feet. That's probably

162
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:06,880
Speaker 7: had something to do with it. And Imovoff, in my opinion,

163
00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:10,600
Speaker 7: isn't necessarily known as a finisher necessarily. Can he finish?

164
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 7: Can he develop into a finisher?

165
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 4: Yes? I think he can, but at this stage of

166
00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 4: the game, he's.

167
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 7: Not that one punch knockout type artist that's gonna get

168
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,200
Speaker 7: it done, especially against someone like Dalite, who is extremely tough.

169
00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 7: I also thought, you know, I kind of disagree with

170
00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,080
Speaker 7: Sean chan in that I thought Delite had some really

171
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 7: nice attacks on the ground as well, and showed a

172
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:34,520
Speaker 7: tremendous amount of heart on the feet to withstand those shots.

173
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,800
Speaker 7: A lot of those shots I thought in combination, like

174
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 7: some of those combinations would have knocked out a lot

175
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 7: of guys, or at least tko't a lot of guys.

176
00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 7: Dalite was not one of them. I thought he did

177
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,760
Speaker 7: a great job surviving. Was it the most technical fight

178
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 7: in the world. No, But I don't think it was

179
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,760
Speaker 7: as bad as a lot of people expect. It wasn't

180
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 7: a NonStop action all that stuff. So I'm kind of

181
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,240
Speaker 7: with you there, John, I'll take it so.

182
00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 1: And I will admit when I was writing my post

183
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: on X and I wrote great Comma grueling main event,

184
00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,960
Speaker 1: I did pause for a second and thought of maybe

185
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:10,280
Speaker 1: another adjective like strong, grueling main event or whatever. And

186
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:12,920
Speaker 1: so I guess I was expectant that people would not

187
00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:15,000
Speaker 1: be fully in line with me as far as my

188
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 1: opinion was concerned. But I guess maybe I was just

189
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,200
Speaker 1: looking for the positive in that fight. And I do

190
00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,160
Speaker 1: believe in Nasordini Mavov largely moving forward as a middleweight contender.

191
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 1: I think styles make fights. It's a setback for Roman Dealize,

192
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it. I think there's a lot

193
00:09:29,240 --> 00:09:32,599
Speaker 1: for him to work on, and I think a lot

194
00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 1: within these twenty five minutes that he can make some

195
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,240
Speaker 1: adjustments on quickly on the scorecards can flow. Ron McCarthy,

196
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:41,199
Speaker 1: veteran judge, a lot of respect for him. He had

197
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: at forty seven forty seven he gave Roman Delidze round two.

198
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 1: He also gave Roman de Leidze round four, and that

199
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: became a ten to eight round because of the knee

200
00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,559
Speaker 1: to the head of a grounded opponent.

201
00:09:52,679 --> 00:09:54,680
Speaker 6: So I did believe that.

202
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 1: Rounds two and four were pretty close and could have

203
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,600
Speaker 1: gone to Roman Dealidze. Now, there were plenty of people

204
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 1: who had a shutout for Nosordini Mavov, and I do

205
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,880
Speaker 1: think sometimes at times when the first round goes to

206
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:12,320
Speaker 1: Nosordini Mavov, and it was unanimous to be sure, maybe

207
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,439
Speaker 1: in a close second round, subconscious has you level the

208
00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: playing field and give the other guy the round I

209
00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: did give Roman Delidza. Yes, true, Flora, and she can

210
00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:22,559
Speaker 1: be here Ken It's absolutely fine. This is actually something

211
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,240
Speaker 1: that will improve ratings. I said to my wife last night,

212
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:29,360
Speaker 1: So hi true, So I had my last daddy daughter

213
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 1: dance last night. Look at how good his fade looks.

214
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:34,960
Speaker 1: See she came in this is God's work, so we

215
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 1: could see the back of your head. This is hilarious.

216
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: Kenny's muted right now if you're not watching, imploring his

217
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: daughter to get out of the office. I had my

218
00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: last daddy daughter dance last night.

219
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 4: Oh my goodness, wow.

220
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: And I posted a picture of me and my lovely

221
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: daughter Tatum and other than the one guy that said

222
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:58,160
Speaker 1: he was going to rob my house. People really resonate

223
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 1: with that content, sometimes even more than what I push

224
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: out a video for the Anakin Florian podcast. So hopefully

225
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 1: true Florian brings the ratings today.

226
00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:04,600
Speaker 4: Kim, Yeah, exactly.

227
00:11:04,640 --> 00:11:07,920
Speaker 7: Actually, I believe we have our last daddy daughter dance

228
00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 7: this year. I get formal, you know, she's in ballet

229
00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 7: and doing all that stuff. It's just me and her

230
00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 7: here at the house. She's actually not feeling well today,

231
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 7: so hopefully she's okay, and hopefully my wife is on

232
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:20,960
Speaker 7: the way as well.

233
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:23,160
Speaker 6: So I have the same issue.

234
00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 1: I have two kids home sick today, Ken Flow, I

235
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 1: got Hunter and Tatum downstairs. So thankfully my lovely babysitter,

236
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 1: Patrese is here early, like two hours early and has

237
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,960
Speaker 1: my two children downstairs. But a lot of us do

238
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 1: find ourselves in these situations, right, calling my mom this morning,

239
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:43,160
Speaker 1: so I don't know, all right, well, try to get

240
00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: the sitter here. So I got two stick kids downstairs,

241
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,600
Speaker 1: and we're just kind of dealing with it. But Ron

242
00:11:47,679 --> 00:11:51,040
Speaker 1: McCarthy had at forty seven forty seven, and you know,

243
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:53,160
Speaker 1: Sean she and certainly is my go to when it

244
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,360
Speaker 1: comes to scoring because he's just the most well read

245
00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: and prepared on it. As far as I'm concerned. There

246
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: are a lot of guys out there, Dan Tom and others,

247
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: Scott Fontana from the New York Post. But Kenny, like,

248
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: I'm okay with that scorecard. I know, it's like a

249
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: wow scorecard because Roman Deleeds didn't win this fight, you know,

250
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: but based upon some of the inaction at times, you know,

251
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: I think forty seven forty seven, even if I'm in

252
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,920
Speaker 1: the minority, I think it's defensible, man, I really do.

253
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:19,559
Speaker 5: Well. Well.

254
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,240
Speaker 7: The only thing is I would say that that first

255
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 7: round is a pretty clear ten eight in my opinion

256
00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 7: for EMO, So that's the only thing. But you're right,

257
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 7: I think rounds two and four, you know, I think

258
00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:33,680
Speaker 7: there's an argument there.

259
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,160
Speaker 4: So I don't think it's so ridiculous as people think.

260
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 7: However, that's about as clear as a ten eight for

261
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:41,520
Speaker 7: amab Up as he can get agree that that's where

262
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,880
Speaker 7: that's where my disagreement lies. But as far as rounds

263
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 7: two and four, I don't necessarily have a problem with.

264
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:49,160
Speaker 6: That, all right.

265
00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:51,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great point. That is a great point.

266
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 1: I would agree with you on the ten eight nature

267
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,520
Speaker 1: of round one. And our executive producer Cody Merrow says,

268
00:12:56,520 --> 00:13:00,840
Speaker 1: slowly losing my respect with these bad cards? Is Ron McCarthy. Yeah,

269
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,200
Speaker 1: so Cody speaking for maybe some of the fan base there.

270
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:10,199
Speaker 1: So in terms of spinning this thing forward for Nasordine Imvov, right,

271
00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:11,720
Speaker 1: there are a lot of people out there, and later

272
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:12,960
Speaker 1: in the week we are going to get to some

273
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,480
Speaker 1: comments from Robert Whitaker on the MMA Hour when it

274
00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 1: comes to the champion drac is du plus But not,

275
00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: unlike Sean O'Malley at bantamweight Kenny, a lot of middleweights

276
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 1: believe they have the recipe to beat the current champion

277
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,560
Speaker 1: Dracus du plus C. So I'm not trying to spin

278
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 1: it all the way that far forward. But based upon

279
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:33,080
Speaker 1: what you saw this weekend, what are your thoughts on

280
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,319
Speaker 1: nas Ordini Mavov and his UFC ceilings, so to speak.

281
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,560
Speaker 7: I think Imovov can certainly be one of the best

282
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 7: in that division. I think he's dangerous because he is

283
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 7: very technical, technical offensively, you know. I think that when

284
00:13:49,640 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 7: you talk about a guy who has made great improvements,

285
00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 7: as in regards to his takedown defense, which he certainly needs,

286
00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:00,040
Speaker 7: you know, I think that's huge. Is he going to

287
00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:02,520
Speaker 7: be extremely dangerous on the ground. No, But I think

288
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,480
Speaker 7: he's good enough to defend himself on the ground. They're

289
00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 7: not that. The one hundred and eighty five pound division

290
00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 7: are filled with a ton of ground specialists. I think

291
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 7: you have you know, Hamzat Chimaye, I, you have Bo

292
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 7: Nicol who are really well known for their takedown game

293
00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:22,240
Speaker 7: and ground and pound and control. But so I think

294
00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 7: that they would certainly struggle against guys like that. But

295
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,440
Speaker 7: in regards to their striking, I think they're right up

296
00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 7: there with some of the best. You know, Imovov has

297
00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 7: shown that he is very well rounded as a striker,

298
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,880
Speaker 7: his hands, his clinch game, his ability to keep range

299
00:14:36,920 --> 00:14:39,080
Speaker 7: on the outside. It was a little concerning that he

300
00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,040
Speaker 7: was getting hit with some of those big shots by

301
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:44,720
Speaker 7: Delite even when he was landing, but still I think

302
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 7: that he wasn't really respecting Delitze a whole lot.

303
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 4: He certainly had a huge advantage.

304
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 7: He was making Delite just look straight up bad on

305
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 7: the feet at times, like Deliza didn't even belong in

306
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,880
Speaker 7: there at times. So I think that's a positive side

307
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 7: because Delita is very dangerous. But I think more than

308
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 7: anything else, not that I'm trying to swing it the

309
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,240
Speaker 7: way of Delite at this stage of the game, but

310
00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,520
Speaker 7: I was more disappointed in Delite because I think at

311
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,080
Speaker 7: this stage of the game he proved himself to not

312
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 7: necessarily be Elite, Like, I think he's got a lot

313
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 7: a lot of room for improvement when it comes to

314
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 7: not only his striking game but his takedown game. He

315
00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 7: just was he was shooting, you know, just off balance,

316
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 7: didn't really have a whole lot of ability to adapt

317
00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 7: to some of the takedown defenses of Imovov. And when

318
00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 7: you have a guy in Imavov who's yes he's from Dakastan,

319
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 7: but he doesn't come from that strong wrestling pedigree which

320
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 7: you typically see from fighters in that region, that that

321
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 7: can be a concern. So anyways, great positives for Imovov,

322
00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:46,240
Speaker 7: who continues to show his takedown defense, his ability to

323
00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:47,920
Speaker 7: get off the ground if he does get there, his

324
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 7: ability to avoid us submissions, and his striking is extremely sharp.

325
00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,600
Speaker 7: I think Delitze was lucky a few times in that

326
00:15:54,640 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 7: fight that he didn't get taken out.

327
00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 1: IV also went through a training camp switch and seems

328
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 1: to have, you know, left no stone unturned in terms

329
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:07,680
Speaker 1: of trying to improve. He's thirteen and three as a pro.

330
00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: He'll be twenty eight on March first, and yeah, maybe

331
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,320
Speaker 1: some regression for the Georgia and dalidz Right thirty five

332
00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 1: years of age, had a huge knockout of Jack Romanson

333
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:19,240
Speaker 1: the end of twenty twenty two, I believe, and just

334
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 1: hasn't been able to sort of consistently ascend the way

335
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: some of these other middleweights happened in a big year

336
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: for the one hundred and eighty five pound vision. Got

337
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 1: to think Nosordini Mabob is going to get a big fight.

338
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 1: We'll see what happens with some of the other up

339
00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: and coming contenders like Brendan Allen and everybody else. And

340
00:16:34,520 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: I have also said to a Roman Deledze, you may

341
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,120
Speaker 1: remember me saying this in the past in a fighter

342
00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: meeting setting. Most intimidating fighter for me, Roman Dealidze, right, Like,

343
00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:46,400
Speaker 1: I just don't want to ask that guy anything resembling

344
00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 1: a stupid question, you know, And I think some of

345
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,360
Speaker 1: that intimidation translates to the octagon. So a nice win

346
00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 1: for Nosordini Mabov, even if the fans didn't enjoy most

347
00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: of the aesthetic. Fans seem to like everything come out

348
00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:03,400
Speaker 1: of the mouth and the game of Hanato Moikano money

349
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: Moikano can flow over. Drew Dover by unanimous decision, And

350
00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:08,520
Speaker 1: there's a lot to unpack with someone like you with

351
00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:11,240
Speaker 1: all your fucking stripes on your Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt, right,

352
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: But somebody like Drew Dover, one of the most decorated

353
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,919
Speaker 1: knockout artists in UFC lightweight history. But he had to

354
00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: be expected, and Elliott Marshall in his corner that it

355
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 1: might be this type of fight where he was going

356
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:28,320
Speaker 1: to have to execute hip escapes and getting off from

357
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 1: his back and out from underneath Nato Moikano. He was

358
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: unable to do so most of the night, and despite

359
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 1: a lot of violence and blood intertwined within this fight,

360
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,800
Speaker 1: that was the story of the fight for me. Moikano

361
00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:41,000
Speaker 1: just on a totally different level on the ground than

362
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: Drew dop.

363
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:42,120
Speaker 8: Yeah.

364
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,600
Speaker 7: I think more than anything else was kind of the

365
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,159
Speaker 7: lack of MMAIQ on the part of Drew Dover. And

366
00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,879
Speaker 7: I mean that respectfully because he's such a dangerous fighter,

367
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 7: but I think that he wasn't making the proper adjustments

368
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 7: in that fight. He had Moi Kano hurt in round one.

369
00:17:57,720 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 7: You know, I picked Moykano. I thought he'd be able

370
00:17:59,960 --> 00:18:01,800
Speaker 7: to take him to the ground and control him there and.

371
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 4: Ended up working olk for me.

372
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 7: However, I was extremely nervous the first few minutes of

373
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 7: that fight versus Drew Doober because he was landing a

374
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,199
Speaker 7: lot of heavy shots. But when it came to his

375
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:17,199
Speaker 7: ground defense fighting off of his back, not only was

376
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,439
Speaker 7: he not able to get back to his feet, but

377
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 7: I also think there was a lack of efficiency there,

378
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 7: which really hurt him. Late in that fight, he was

379
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:28,920
Speaker 7: expending a tremendous amount of energy, not only because maybe

380
00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 7: he was lacking some of that efficiency himself and his technique,

381
00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 7: but also Moi Kano fought brilliantly. He allowed he allowed

382
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 7: Drewdover to carry his weight very well, and because of that,

383
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 7: he was spending a lot of energy pushing him off.

384
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 7: He was putting a lot of weight very intelligently onto

385
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:51,080
Speaker 7: the arms or frames of Drewdober. So Dudover was constantly

386
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 7: bench pressing, probably for the last two minutes of round one,

387
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 7: which is going to tire you out, which is going

388
00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 7: to take away your power, which is going to take

389
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:01,920
Speaker 7: way you're conditioning, which is going to take away your

390
00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 7: reaction time. So that fight, although it was by decision,

391
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 7: Moikano was one in round one. In my opinion, a

392
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 7: lot of things went wrong for Mokano in that fight,

393
00:19:12,800 --> 00:19:15,560
Speaker 7: but his ability to switch it back over into his

394
00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:18,439
Speaker 7: realm on the ground and tire out his opponent I

395
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:22,520
Speaker 7: thought was brilliant, very smart because Moikano, yes, he can strike,

396
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,879
Speaker 7: but he cannot strike on the level of something like

397
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,879
Speaker 7: Drew Dover. So this is mixed martial arts. This was

398
00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:32,240
Speaker 7: beautiful to watch, the adjustments the win from Wikano, and yeah,

399
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,040
Speaker 7: I thought it was a really fun fight to watch

400
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 7: as well.

401
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:36,160
Speaker 1: And a lot of credit goes out to our man

402
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 1: Pahoopa as well. In the corner the American Top Team

403
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:41,879
Speaker 1: corner of Hanato Moikano and largely given the matchup Kenny,

404
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,120
Speaker 1: I think this is exactly what they figured they might

405
00:19:45,240 --> 00:19:47,119
Speaker 1: have to do. Maybe you feel a little bit of

406
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,359
Speaker 1: what's coming back from Drew Dover early and then Path

407
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: of Least Resistance. So Nato Moikano then takes to the

408
00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 1: microphone and continues to sort of advance his his profile

409
00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,240
Speaker 1: in that regard, right, Like, certainly you and I and

410
00:20:00,240 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 1: a lot of the fan base has a wild appreciation

411
00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,760
Speaker 1: for everything he does as a mixed martial arts athlete.

412
00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 1: But it's been his last two post fight interviews, despite

413
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 1: a huge gap between them, that is really what is

414
00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 1: resonating with this fan base. I think part of this

415
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,440
Speaker 1: post fight interview with Daniel Cormier suggested that his sixty

416
00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: year old father sixty two to sixty five just became

417
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 1: a father for the however many ith time. So there's

418
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:27,160
Speaker 1: just a lot to like when it comes to money

419
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 1: Moykano and letting his personality after a big win lead

420
00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:29,920
Speaker 1: the dance.

421
00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 7: You know, he had a lot to say after that fight,

422
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 7: didn't he? It was It was hilarious. It was one

423
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 7: of the funnier post fight speeches that I've heard in

424
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 7: a little while. The other one that's memorable was the

425
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 7: one other one by Moykanto, and you hear this guy

426
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:49,480
Speaker 7: in money Moykanta, who's really trying to hype himself up

427
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,600
Speaker 7: a lot more. Now, he's really trying to take advantage

428
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 7: of that microphone, and I think.

429
00:20:56,040 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 4: It's a wise move.

430
00:20:57,080 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 7: You only have so much time in this sport, and

431
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 7: Till probably found out that if you stay a little

432
00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 7: too quiet, and if you fight kind of like everybody else,

433
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 7: you get blended in and you become just kind of

434
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 7: one of many in the crowd. And I think this

435
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,160
Speaker 7: is his way of standing out, getting people to remember him.

436
00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 7: I love the message. I probably would have gone without

437
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:19,800
Speaker 7: so many f bombs if he's trying to tell people

438
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 7: to be a little bit more aligned with God. But hey,

439
00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:26,360
Speaker 7: everyone has their menthod of doing things. I think there's

440
00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,439
Speaker 7: a lot of passion coming out of this guy, and

441
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 7: you can see it not only in what he's saying,

442
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:32,199
Speaker 7: but also in the way that he's fighting. He is

443
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,320
Speaker 7: fighting it with more passion I feel like lately, and

444
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 7: it's great to see.

445
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:37,560
Speaker 4: Man.

446
00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,399
Speaker 7: It's hard, extremely hard just to get to the level

447
00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 7: of the UFC, and to stay there for that long

448
00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 7: is even harder, and to make a name for yourself

449
00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 7: and to separate yourself from a crowd, especially the insane

450
00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 7: one hundred and fifty five pound division.

451
00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,120
Speaker 4: Is even more difficult to do. So prop Stimoy.

452
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,160
Speaker 7: Kane for getting it done against a really tough opponent

453
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 7: and for standing out amongst a bunch of studs in

454
00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 7: that division.

455
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: Well put, and I agree passion is really the buzzwerd

456
00:22:04,080 --> 00:22:07,240
Speaker 1: when it comes to Nato Moikano and this resurgent so

457
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 1: to speak. So number thirteen in the world, I mean,

458
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,520
Speaker 1: there are obviously a lot of big names above him,

459
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,280
Speaker 1: Jalen Turner there at number nine. Sometimes right, it's about

460
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,560
Speaker 1: getting guys ranked above you to actually sign on the

461
00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,639
Speaker 1: dotted line. He does have a lot of teammates and

462
00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:25,200
Speaker 1: connective tissue within that lightweight top fifteen, right armand Sara Kon,

463
00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:29,560
Speaker 1: Dustin Pourier among them. But American Top Team certainly making

464
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 1: its presence felt in that lightweight top fifteen. We are

465
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: going to talk to Randy Brown later, so I'm going

466
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 1: to table that for a moment if I could can flow.

467
00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: I do want to ask you, if I could, about

468
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 1: this accidental ipoke from Aliaskup Hisriev to mak Mud Mouradov.

469
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,679
Speaker 1: I'd imagine you saw it. The fight ends unceremoniously no

470
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 1: contest due to the aforementioned accidental ipoke at eleven seconds

471
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,200
Speaker 1: of round number one, And I guess for me, I'm

472
00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,840
Speaker 1: just glad that Muradov didn't continue to compete, Like I

473
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,840
Speaker 1: feel awful for both parties, right, aliaskup Hisriev hasn't fought

474
00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 1: in a long time. I know you a big parlay

475
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 1: around him and everything else, right, but like, you can't

476
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:07,080
Speaker 1: fight with one eye, and when it's an ipoke that

477
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:10,880
Speaker 1: is seemingly as severe as this one, Laura Sanko nicely

478
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:13,600
Speaker 1: saw what she thought was a corneal abrasion, and the

479
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,119
Speaker 1: doctor sort of backed that up. But Kenny, like I

480
00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:18,440
Speaker 1: do feel like a lot of men and women are

481
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 1: bullied or pressured into fighting on and there's just no upside.

482
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: And I'm just glad that even if we don't have

483
00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:27,560
Speaker 1: the perfect gloves or the perfect recipe to get rid

484
00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 1: of these ipokes, I'm just glad he didn't continue, because

485
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 1: when there's one this severe and I'm on a hot microphone,

486
00:23:32,760 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 1: you can be sure I'm going to be suggesting that

487
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:37,240
Speaker 1: the fighter you know, live to fight another day.

488
00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 7: Well, I think Michael Bisson would probably tell you to

489
00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 7: hold his beer as he fights with one eye. But yeah, no,

490
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:45,639
Speaker 7: there's not a whole lot of people that that can

491
00:23:45,720 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 7: do that or should do that, right. I think that

492
00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:51,280
Speaker 7: when you're facing a guy like a history of who

493
00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:54,680
Speaker 7: is extremely dangerous, who I think was a very tough

494
00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 7: matchup form because of his wrestling and his speed on

495
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,159
Speaker 7: the feet. He might not be the biggest middle in

496
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,679
Speaker 7: the world, but his speed and his wrestling and his

497
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,000
Speaker 7: control was going to be a problem, make no mistake

498
00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:09,680
Speaker 7: about that. And I think that you know, every win,

499
00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 7: every fight in the UFC is extremely important. Why would

500
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 7: you jeopardize that at this stage of the game. Why

501
00:24:16,359 --> 00:24:19,720
Speaker 7: would you continue? It's extremely unfortunate. It ticked me off,

502
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,399
Speaker 7: but I think from Rodolph he made he made the

503
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 7: right choice here. He made the right choice. And I

504
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 7: probably butchered that last name there by the way, but

505
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 7: I think that you know he made the right call.

506
00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 7: You don't want to go into any fight compromise on

507
00:24:35,280 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 7: that level, right, I mean, you need both your eyes

508
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:41,399
Speaker 7: to compete at the highest level, and why would you

509
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,080
Speaker 7: continue under those circumstances.

510
00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,840
Speaker 4: I think it was the right call. Unfortunate, but it

511
00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:46,480
Speaker 4: was the right move.

512
00:24:46,520 --> 00:24:50,000
Speaker 1: To do a couple other big winners on the night,

513
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:55,440
Speaker 1: Molly McCann with just a fantastic strawwat debut. And I

514
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,600
Speaker 1: might sound like a simpleton when I say this, but

515
00:24:57,720 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 1: KENNI she was just not going to be denied on

516
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:03,560
Speaker 1: the evening and certainly she has fallen victim to the

517
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:06,840
Speaker 1: arm bar prior, and she just said this came after

518
00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:10,439
Speaker 1: the hardest stretch of her life and career and just

519
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:11,680
Speaker 1: got to feel good for me.

520
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 6: Ball Molly McCann can flow.

521
00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:14,240
Speaker 4: Yeah.

522
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 7: Well, it's always nice when you see someone who's able

523
00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,040
Speaker 7: to come back and show that they are working on

524
00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,800
Speaker 7: their ground game and to kind of turn the tables

525
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 7: in that manner and actually get the arm bar herself.

526
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 4: I think must be a huge motivator for.

527
00:25:30,760 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 7: Her to at least know, Hey, maybe I'm not perfect

528
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 7: on the ground, but I am getting better and that

529
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,360
Speaker 7: work that I'm putting in is paying off. And as

530
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 7: I mentioned, you know, looking at this fight from the

531
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 7: outside in, I thought that Bill Bita certainly didn't have

532
00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:48,399
Speaker 7: the ground game to challenge someone like Molly McCann and

533
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,439
Speaker 7: be a threat there. It was Molly, I thought that,

534
00:25:51,359 --> 00:25:54,080
Speaker 7: you know, did a great job on the ground I

535
00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,199
Speaker 7: think she's going to have to continue to work on

536
00:25:56,280 --> 00:26:00,359
Speaker 7: that to not only have that as you know, a

537
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 7: defensive mechanism for her game, but also as a way

538
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 7: for her to be offensive and be a threat down there.

539
00:26:05,720 --> 00:26:07,160
Speaker 4: And she showed that she.

540
00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 6: Can be that.

541
00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 7: Getting back on track with this kind of win, I

542
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,679
Speaker 7: think is going to be huge for her confidence moving forward.

543
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:14,160
Speaker 3: More.

544
00:26:14,160 --> 00:26:16,359
Speaker 1: I'm Molly McCann coming up in the Ray Longo minute

545
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,000
Speaker 1: later in the program, but it is Super Bowl week

00:27:48,200 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 6: Marcedes Lewis is with us, my man.

579
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 3: What's up, my guy?

580
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 6: And you give me good energy today. How are we doing?

581
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 3: I'm doing amazing, man. How you guys doing good?

582
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:57,560
Speaker 6: We're doing well, man.

583
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 1: And it's probably overdue to have you on the show.

584
00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,240
Speaker 1: To be sure, I did want to get you on

585
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 1: during Super Bowl week. We'll get a prediction from you later,

586
00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:06,960
Speaker 1: but I want to talk about Marcedes Lewis if we could.

587
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 1: And you know, I was looking up the pronunciation of

588
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:12,800
Speaker 1: your name last night, so I couldn't actually find footage

589
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 1: of you saying your name, but I do have it

590
00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,919
Speaker 1: on good authority if my research is accurate, that it

591
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,440
Speaker 1: is indeed pronounced Marcedes and not Mercedes like the Benz.

592
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 3: Is that right correct?

593
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 8: All right?

594
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:24,640
Speaker 6: I had to get that out of the way.

595
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, Now you always do a really good job

596
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 3: with names. I feel like, even just when I watched

597
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 3: the broadcast, I mean, I feel like since I've been

598
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:37,879
Speaker 3: following the UFC, I've gotten more aware of just like

599
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 3: different countries and names, how things are pronounced, and Pereira

600
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 3: and Padea, and it's pretty crazy but you do an

601
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 3: amazing job.

602
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 6: My man.

603
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:50,480
Speaker 1: Well, I was actually looking for a Sunday Night football

604
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: video of you when you guys actually say your names

605
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,560
Speaker 1: as the starters, but I couldn't find one. If the

606
00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:59,520
Speaker 1: viewers don't know, Marcedes Lewis, no tight end in NFL

607
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,480
Speaker 1: history had played more than seventeen seasons until you broke

608
00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:05,800
Speaker 1: that record last year. You completed your eighteen season as

609
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: a Remember the Chicago Bears. Career began as a first

610
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,040
Speaker 1: round draft pick out of UCLA after you won the

611
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 1: John Macke Awards the nation's top tight end, taken by

612
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,480
Speaker 1: the Jacksonville Jaguars twenty eighth overall in two thousand and six.

613
00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: Twelve seasons in Duval County, then five with the Green

614
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: Bay Packers, and then you just wrap your first season

615
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,840
Speaker 1: with the Chicago Bears. You've talked about your health and

616
00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 1: your ability to avoid major injuries. Is there anything that

617
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 1: you point to as the ultimate key to your longevity

618
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: and health because obviously you're setting records, man, and there

619
00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 1: hasn't been that major injury that has taken away a

620
00:29:38,680 --> 00:29:39,560
Speaker 1: full season for you.

621
00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean, if I had to be honest, man, like,

622
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 3: it's one of those things like I don't have the blueprint,

623
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,720
Speaker 3: but all I know is I just always have stuck

624
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 3: to it whatever has been right, And it's about just

625
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 3: having a routine and just figuring out how to reinvent

626
00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:01,520
Speaker 3: yourself every year and every day, right, Like nobody cares

627
00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 3: about what you did last month, and nobody cares about

628
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 3: what you did last year. You know, Like it's just

629
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:11,400
Speaker 3: one of those things. So it's all about you having

630
00:30:11,400 --> 00:30:14,080
Speaker 3: a process and understanding that can't nobody slow it down

631
00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,880
Speaker 3: or speed it up but you. And for me, I've

632
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 3: had the same routine for the last fifteen years. Obviously,

633
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 3: it's one of those things where you can take stuff out,

634
00:30:24,200 --> 00:30:28,520
Speaker 3: put stuff back in. I mean, it's different for everybody.

635
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 3: So it's definitely been a blessing and something that you know,

636
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:34,400
Speaker 3: I don't take for granted for sure.

637
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 1: So May nineteenth is your fortieth birthday. I know your

638
00:30:40,560 --> 00:30:44,760
Speaker 1: desire to win a Super Bowl is still there. I'm

639
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,719
Speaker 1: not looking for any breaking news in terms of your

640
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: immediate future, but I believe you are an unrestricted free

641
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:51,280
Speaker 1: agent after wrapping up a one year contract with the Bears.

642
00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 3: Is that right, Yeah, Yeah, I'm definitely going first season nineteen.

643
00:30:56,520 --> 00:31:00,440
Speaker 3: I am a free agent as of now, and yeah, man,

644
00:31:00,440 --> 00:31:03,960
Speaker 3: we'll see what happens. You know, it's you know, it's

645
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 3: a few teams in the mix. Obviously, being in Chicago

646
00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 3: was amazing, and especially when you win ball games, it's

647
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,200
Speaker 3: nothing like being in this city when you win. So

648
00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 3: that was definitely a great experience for me.

649
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 7: You know, when I see someone with your level of

650
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:25,200
Speaker 7: success and your longevity, your consistency, I'm always curious, you know,

651
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,160
Speaker 7: to hear you speak, and you're great on the mic,

652
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 7: you know, after a game hearing your perspective. Where do

653
00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:33,800
Speaker 7: you get this from? Was it something you kind of

654
00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 7: learned on your own from kind of trial and ever

655
00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:39,160
Speaker 7: over the years of competing. Was there a family member

656
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 7: or a mentor who kind of helped you along with this?

657
00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 4: Where do you get that?

658
00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:50,200
Speaker 3: Man? I just think experience, Man, like I experience, be honest,

659
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:55,080
Speaker 3: stay true. For me, it's always been about staying true

660
00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 3: to my process right and being able to look in

661
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 3: the mirror and confront that truth and whatever that is.

662
00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 3: When you confront that truth, you experienced great growth after that.

663
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,200
Speaker 3: And so I've just always been a guy to just

664
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,080
Speaker 3: keep it real, be honest about my feelings and what

665
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,360
Speaker 3: I'm going through and it's always come out in a

666
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 3: way that I intended.

667
00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:16,800
Speaker 7: To the beautiful answer, man, So what got you in

668
00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 7: to mixed martial arts? And you know what, do you

669
00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 7: remember the first event or the first fight that you saw?

670
00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:28,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I'll make a long story short. This was

671
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 3: in twenty eleven. I got voted to my first pro

672
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:35,040
Speaker 3: BO and Jay Glazer, who was already a really good

673
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,280
Speaker 3: friend of mine. This is back when the Pro Bowl

674
00:32:38,360 --> 00:32:42,560
Speaker 3: was still in Hawaii, and so I'm at the pool

675
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 3: my family. Jay shows up with Chuck Lerdale Chuckerdell. Chuck

676
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 3: Ldale walks up to me and he's like, yeah, man,

677
00:32:50,240 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 3: I'm going to need an extra body to train with.

678
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,160
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, first of all, I'm not about to

679
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 3: be a heavy buy. You can just forget that. Like

680
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,040
Speaker 3: I don't know about all of that anyway, long story short.

681
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 3: We get back to LA and this is when Jay

682
00:33:04,480 --> 00:33:07,240
Speaker 3: was at one of the gems, you know, training and

683
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:08,479
Speaker 3: then he was like, hey, I want you to come

684
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 3: down a true warrior, and true warrior true warrior fitness

685
00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:15,320
Speaker 3: was off of mirrors and the bread. So my first

686
00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 3: opportunity to actually like train was with Chuck Liddell and

687
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,840
Speaker 3: Randy Cotore showed up that day, and so Chuck is

688
00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 3: teaching me striking, Randy is teaching me, you know, the

689
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:28,959
Speaker 3: basics of wrestling, right, and then Tyron Woodley walks in,

690
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:32,840
Speaker 3: and so Tyron Woody starts teaching me just the basics

691
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 3: of like like boxing, like mmm boxing, right, And so

692
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,080
Speaker 3: from that day I got addicted. I think my first

693
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,320
Speaker 3: three months I just felt like super stiff and super

694
00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 3: just like, man, I don't know how I'm gonna get

695
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 3: better at this, but that's what kept me coming back

696
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 3: every single day. And so three months turned into six months, right,

697
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 3: and then six months turned into nine months, and here

698
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 3: we are, thirteen years removed, and you know, it's something

699
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:01,320
Speaker 3: that I do in the off season that that's really

700
00:34:01,400 --> 00:34:08,239
Speaker 3: kept me functional my reflexes. People always ask like, man,

701
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,719
Speaker 3: how do you about my blocking? Like how do you

702
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:14,799
Speaker 3: do certain things and certain techniques like in the NFL, right,

703
00:34:14,840 --> 00:34:19,280
Speaker 3: everybody's big, strong, fast, long arms. Like the physical stuff

704
00:34:19,320 --> 00:34:21,920
Speaker 3: is there. I think the biggest part of like was

705
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 3: where MMMA has taught me is just like the mental

706
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:27,080
Speaker 3: side of it, right, and being able to push through

707
00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 3: that wall when nobody else will, and you know, I

708
00:34:30,600 --> 00:34:35,320
Speaker 3: attribute you know, working with Chuck and working with Glazer

709
00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:38,880
Speaker 3: and working with Guitar for that, because that's that's you know,

710
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,879
Speaker 3: that was the basis for what I was getting ready

711
00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 3: to do for these next following years. And yeah, man,

712
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 3: it's just it's been a blessing. And I think after that,

713
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:52,879
Speaker 3: I ended up running into Lorenzo for Tita, I want

714
00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 3: to say, maybe three years after that, and he kind of,

715
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 3: you know, was a mentor for me and took me

716
00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 3: under his wing. And then when Lorenzo stepped away, I

717
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,040
Speaker 3: mean obviously, you know, he put me in contact with Dana.

718
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:06,359
Speaker 3: You know, me and Dana are really good friends and so, uh,

719
00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 3: you know, I'm pretty much grandfather than at this point.

720
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:14,399
Speaker 3: And uh, it's been a really good experience obviously. Uh

721
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,319
Speaker 3: you know, I have you know, my favorite fighters, a

722
00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:18,120
Speaker 3: lot of those guys you know, or my boys and

723
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,480
Speaker 3: were my boys before. They want belts and stuff like that.

724
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 3: So uh, it's just it's been an honor to be

725
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:27,160
Speaker 3: a part of. Obviously, it's one of those things that

726
00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,799
Speaker 3: you know, playing in the NFL, it takes so much

727
00:35:31,920 --> 00:35:35,520
Speaker 3: like just mental fortitude just every day, right and knowing

728
00:35:35,560 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 3: that like your days can get monotonous and sometimes you

729
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:41,120
Speaker 3: got to reach out to different sources for your inspiration,

730
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 3: and uh, the UFC is one of those. And you know,

731
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,160
Speaker 3: looking up to a lot of my guys that go

732
00:35:47,239 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 3: and get ready for camp and do weight cuts and

733
00:35:49,480 --> 00:35:52,160
Speaker 3: all of that stuff, like it's it's something that, like

734
00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,319
Speaker 3: to the naked eye, you never understand. Uh, And it's

735
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,960
Speaker 3: something that I've really respected over time. And yeah, man,

736
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:00,000
Speaker 3: that's that's the story.

737
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:01,919
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's not bad.

738
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:05,320
Speaker 7: Johnny gets introduced to the sport by Randy Chuck and Tyron.

739
00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,000
Speaker 1: Now, I mean right, and you could do worse than

740
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 1: Lorenzo for Tita Olodex as well. Marceides lewis with us

741
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:13,880
Speaker 1: here on the Anaic and Florian podcast. So, actually the

742
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 1: last event you attended, what was the last UFC live

743
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,120
Speaker 1: event you attended? You know, I know that Wi Fi

744
00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 1: password that night and of course, oh so it was

745
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:24,919
Speaker 1: UFC two eighty five.

746
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 3: Then yeah, it was John Jones. I think it was

747
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:32,120
Speaker 3: like March fourth or something like that. But yeah, I mean,

748
00:36:32,160 --> 00:36:35,279
Speaker 3: I that was something that was I had to make

749
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,880
Speaker 3: that fight, regardless of what I was doing. I know,

750
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,759
Speaker 3: I had to make that fight. And so yeah, I

751
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:44,560
Speaker 3: flew out to Vegas for that and then afterwards, you know,

752
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,920
Speaker 3: hung out with John for a little bit and Chandler

753
00:36:47,000 --> 00:36:50,840
Speaker 3: and Arthur so. But yeah, I mean it's whenever I

754
00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,839
Speaker 3: can obviously, when I'm back and forth with my team

755
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:55,880
Speaker 3: and training and stuff like that, but whatever events I

756
00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 3: can make, I'm definitely there.

757
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 1: So sometimes in some of these locker rooms NFL or NBA,

758
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: the UFC fandom sort of comes from one guy like

759
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: Boston Salta, Christaph Porzingis, and then all of a sudden

760
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 1: some of the other guys become fans. Any connective tissue

761
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 1: with your teammates or any of your teammates watching this

762
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,000
Speaker 1: stuff like you are or not?

763
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 3: Uh. And what I was in Jacksonville the first twelve

764
00:37:20,120 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 3: years is maybe like two or three guys. Yeah, but

765
00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 3: they didn't really get it at that point. I mean

766
00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 3: I got drafted six, so it was them guys didn't

767
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:30,359
Speaker 3: even know what was going on at that point as

768
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,000
Speaker 3: far as the UFC is concerned. But when I got

769
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,239
Speaker 3: to Green Bay, it was probably about a good five

770
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 3: or six guys that would always come to me and

771
00:37:37,160 --> 00:37:39,319
Speaker 3: ask me for my analysis and who I thought was

772
00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 3: gonna win fight? I love it, uh. And then obviously

773
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:45,960
Speaker 3: when I got here this year, I would say maybe

774
00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:49,320
Speaker 3: like five or six guys. So in those fights, like normally,

775
00:37:49,520 --> 00:37:52,359
Speaker 3: in those small groups on different teams that I've been on,

776
00:37:52,960 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 3: they're like true fans, right, Like there are guys that

777
00:37:56,160 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 3: will watch but don't know what they're watching, don't know

778
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 3: the rules, guys on the ground and grappling and the

779
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 3: jiu jitsu part of it, and they're like, you know

780
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 3: why they're holding each other. I'm like, bro, you really

781
00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 3: have no idea, and it's way more intricate than you

782
00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:15,160
Speaker 3: could ever imagine, you know, And I think you know

783
00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:19,279
Speaker 3: from that side of it what they don't understand, Like

784
00:38:19,360 --> 00:38:23,080
Speaker 3: I understand it in a way that it's just different.

785
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:25,840
Speaker 3: I see it. I see it different, and uh, I

786
00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:28,120
Speaker 3: mean even just a grappling and the jiu jitsu side

787
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,000
Speaker 3: of it alone, it's once always kept me coming back

788
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 3: because it's such a there's always a solution, right if

789
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:38,840
Speaker 3: you can be patient and breathe and get through different

790
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:42,440
Speaker 3: positions with technique and stuff like I enjoy watching that,

791
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,280
Speaker 3: you know, because it's Uh, you guys make it look easy,

792
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 3: like when cam Flow was in. I mean, you just

793
00:38:48,440 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 3: make it look easy and it's not easy. Like there

794
00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,000
Speaker 3: was a time where I trained with a Frank Trigg

795
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,200
Speaker 3: and he was taking me through a series of like

796
00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:00,880
Speaker 3: the triangle, choked, the arm barl like keep was just

797
00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,640
Speaker 3: taking me through just a series on the ground and

798
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:07,239
Speaker 3: like he like just the way he was explaining it

799
00:39:07,280 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 3: was just like Yo, it's so it's just so much deeper.

800
00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:13,200
Speaker 3: There's so much information that you're taking in it. Like

801
00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:15,919
Speaker 3: when I do retire, that's something that like I really

802
00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:19,239
Speaker 3: want to like sink my teeth in because it's I'm

803
00:39:19,280 --> 00:39:21,319
Speaker 3: still gonna want to be competitive and I'm still going

804
00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:25,000
Speaker 3: to want to do it, but obviously not be taking

805
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,799
Speaker 3: a penne on my body. So I look forward to

806
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:27,359
Speaker 3: that as well.

807
00:39:27,800 --> 00:39:30,320
Speaker 1: I don't know how much forethought you gave to this interview,

808
00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:32,800
Speaker 1: but perhaps you thought you'd be asked a question about

809
00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:36,279
Speaker 1: competing in celebrity boxing or grappling. It would seem to

810
00:39:36,320 --> 00:39:39,160
Speaker 1: me that there wouldn't be a lot of familial support

811
00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:40,920
Speaker 1: for you to get punched in the head, right. I

812
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: don't know that that makes a whole lot of sense,

813
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:46,240
Speaker 1: even if you probably do quite well in that setting.

814
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:48,640
Speaker 1: But you just mentioned the grappling. I mean, could you

815
00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: see yourself actually competing in boxing or grappling or mixed

816
00:39:53,080 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: martial arts when your NFL career is done.

817
00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 3: I think if it was a situation where I wasn't

818
00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:02,200
Speaker 3: so long in the tooth for sure, Like if my

819
00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:06,360
Speaker 3: career was the average like three years, I would probably

820
00:40:06,400 --> 00:40:10,360
Speaker 3: be probably in the UFC by now, right Like I

821
00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 3: I just feel like now I'm just older. So the

822
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:17,120
Speaker 3: grappling part is something that I want to do and

823
00:40:17,160 --> 00:40:20,839
Speaker 3: get like really familiar with and train, you know, year

824
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 3: round and not having to go back for season and

825
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:25,640
Speaker 3: all of that. But the boxing side of it, it

826
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 3: just doesn't really interest me because I'm not trying to

827
00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:29,600
Speaker 3: get punched in my face.

828
00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 4: You know, Like I just I just don't feel like.

829
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,640
Speaker 3: I don't feel like the money is there for that,

830
00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:37,759
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. And considering where I would

831
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,959
Speaker 3: start from, right like, I would be like I would

832
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,759
Speaker 3: just be an amateur, and I just I don't I'm

833
00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,000
Speaker 3: not trying to you know, take the put those miles

834
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:47,720
Speaker 3: on my body at this age.

835
00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 1: No, that makes a lot of sense. I got a

836
00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,680
Speaker 1: few more minutes here with Mercedes Lewis. I just fucked

837
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,120
Speaker 1: up your name there, you see that. So this record

838
00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,839
Speaker 1: feels unbreakable, and maybe you don't even want to talk

839
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,759
Speaker 1: about it necessarily, right, But in ufcracles we talk a

840
00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:02,560
Speaker 1: lot about some of these records, and some of them

841
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,120
Speaker 1: feel more breakable than others. But you know, I went

842
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: through all these high level, high profile tight ends, and

843
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:12,360
Speaker 1: the notion that someone would get to a nineteenth season.

844
00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: I don't know if this is just my way to

845
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 1: compliment your career. By the way, had a touchdown on

846
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 1: Christmas Eve, so we're still getting it done. But it's

847
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:23,560
Speaker 1: just incredible. I don't know that this record nineteenth season

848
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,080
Speaker 1: pending is ever going to be broken, especially at the

849
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:26,840
Speaker 1: tight end position.

850
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:28,080
Speaker 4: Unbelievable.

851
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:32,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think so. Like I mean, you know,

852
00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:35,640
Speaker 3: it's one of those things, like you you get so

853
00:41:36,719 --> 00:41:40,840
Speaker 3: obsessed with the process, and you know, sometimes you forget

854
00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,759
Speaker 3: to just take a deep breath and really appreciate yourself

855
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:48,440
Speaker 3: and your work and what you've done. And I'm very

856
00:41:48,480 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 3: aware of what I've done, but I'm more so excited

857
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 3: about what I'm doing, like in this moment, and I've

858
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,480
Speaker 3: always been present about that, and I think that is

859
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:02,080
Speaker 3: the reason why I've done what I've done, is because

860
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 3: I'm able to synthesize things very well and compartmentalize like

861
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:11,239
Speaker 3: what matters right now, right like my like life in

862
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:14,120
Speaker 3: general is all windows, right, and you only have a

863
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:19,040
Speaker 3: certain amount of time to get things done. And I've

864
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:23,799
Speaker 3: just always been always been able to keep that at

865
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:25,839
Speaker 3: the forefront of my mind, like this is the most

866
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 3: important right like to going out to drinking and doing

867
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 3: all of that. That'll always be there, you know, like that.

868
00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 3: But if it's not conducive to me being the best

869
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:39,560
Speaker 3: player that I can possibly be, then I'm just not

870
00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 3: interested in it. And so I'm just very grateful for

871
00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:47,880
Speaker 3: the opportunity to show that it can be done. And

872
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,720
Speaker 3: you know, here we are again with another off season

873
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:55,759
Speaker 3: and potentially going to get that nineteenth year. So I'm

874
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:56,440
Speaker 3: hype about that.

875
00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:59,319
Speaker 7: John waite Man, John this is a martial artist in

876
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,200
Speaker 7: an NFL tell when he talks the way he thinks

877
00:43:02,239 --> 00:43:03,120
Speaker 7: about it, I love it.

878
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,920
Speaker 1: No, I'm getting the eighty nine jersey framed up.

879
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:06,360
Speaker 3: I don't know.

880
00:43:06,440 --> 00:43:08,279
Speaker 1: I think the problem want to know with the Jacksonville

881
00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 1: Jaguars jersey right here in the home studio. But I

882
00:43:11,320 --> 00:43:15,279
Speaker 1: didn't realize quite how robuster ucla career was until I

883
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:17,480
Speaker 1: went down a rabbit hole last night. You know, I

884
00:43:17,520 --> 00:43:20,680
Speaker 1: remember your name acutely coming out of college, but I

885
00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,600
Speaker 1: didn't quite realize just how unbelievable your collegiate career was.

886
00:43:24,600 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 1: All Right, I got two more in terms of your

887
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:31,640
Speaker 1: UFC viewing habits. Evan Longoria, longtime Major League baseball player.

888
00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:34,640
Speaker 1: You know, still in season, at whatever hour, finds time

889
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:36,839
Speaker 1: to watch all these live events. Like, what are your

890
00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,320
Speaker 1: UFC viewing habits like, either in season or out of season?

891
00:43:40,760 --> 00:43:44,400
Speaker 3: So in season, you know, obviously, when we're traveling, I

892
00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:48,320
Speaker 3: always have my iPad, right so after meetings, normally meetings

893
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,000
Speaker 3: at the at the hotel that we're staying at normally

894
00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:54,080
Speaker 3: starts when the main event starts. So it's like, normally,

895
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:56,439
Speaker 3: let's just say, at the main event starts to seven

896
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:00,480
Speaker 3: Eastern and we're East coast time, like, I'll have my

897
00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:02,399
Speaker 3: iPad and I'll just have it hooked up and then

898
00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 3: i'll just rewind it. But I'm I'm pretty much tapped

899
00:44:05,080 --> 00:44:07,560
Speaker 3: into the pay per view. I watched all the fight nights,

900
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,480
Speaker 3: and whatever I don't watch, I'll watch. Like let's say,

901
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:12,759
Speaker 3: if I'm on the road and I didn't get a

902
00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 3: chance to watch it, I'll come home and then either

903
00:44:16,400 --> 00:44:18,120
Speaker 3: turn on my fight Pass, or I'll just go to

904
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 3: ESPN two and just watch it when I get home,

905
00:44:21,040 --> 00:44:23,480
Speaker 3: because I'm always up late after games anyway, because of

906
00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:27,240
Speaker 3: the generally, like when I get home, my adrenaline doesn't

907
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,880
Speaker 3: it doesn't run out until maybe like three in the

908
00:44:29,880 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 3: morning anyway. So and then I watched the fights, go

909
00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 3: to bed at like two thirty three o'clock, and then

910
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:36,799
Speaker 3: I'm waking up at seven six point thirty because I

911
00:44:36,800 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 3: can't sleep because of the adrenalin. It's crazy how that works.

912
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,560
Speaker 6: It's amazing, all right, real quick.

913
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:45,759
Speaker 1: Forty nine ers two point favorites over the Kansas City

914
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 1: chief Super Bowl fifty eight this Sunday. You guys did

915
00:44:48,239 --> 00:44:51,120
Speaker 1: play the Chiefs this season. Forced to make a pick?

916
00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:54,480
Speaker 1: Are you back in the AFC champion or do you

917
00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:56,239
Speaker 1: like San Francisco as the favorite.

918
00:44:56,880 --> 00:45:00,440
Speaker 3: It's really crazy, man, because I really like both teams.

919
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,640
Speaker 3: It's hard to bet against Mahomes. That guy lives in

920
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 3: the in the postseason. Uh he has equity in the

921
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,920
Speaker 3: in the super Bowl at this point. Uh So it's

922
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 3: hard to bet against him. It's really gonna come down

923
00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:20,480
Speaker 3: to San Francisco's defense. Their defense is really good. I

924
00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:24,719
Speaker 3: think in years past, uh, they've been great. I think

925
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:26,920
Speaker 3: this year they've been trying to you know, figure some

926
00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,480
Speaker 3: things out. But it's gonna come down to their defense

927
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:35,640
Speaker 3: and can they keep Mahomes uh in the pocket and

928
00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:41,680
Speaker 3: and not you know, going crazy out there. Then I

929
00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,799
Speaker 3: think San Francisco can get it done. I just think

930
00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,480
Speaker 3: that as a total team, they have more to work with.

931
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 3: But again, Kelsey Mahomes, you know, they've always gotten it done.

932
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 3: So it's gonna be tough, but I think I might

933
00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:58,480
Speaker 3: go San Francisco this time.

934
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: My man, you heard it there from the eighteen year

Speaker 1: Number one in your heart. Marcedes Lewis with us on

946
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,839
Speaker 1: the anak Implorian podcast. What a fucking legend ken Flow.

947
00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:37,400
Speaker 7: Huh, it's so impressive, man, I love hearing him talk again.

948
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 7: Just a real intelligent human being, very down to earth,

949
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,040
Speaker 7: very humble. You look at everything he has accomplished. Man

950
00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,360
Speaker 7: in that position, to be in the NFL for that long,

951
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 7: that's insane. That's something special.

952
00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:49,919
Speaker 1: And I probably should have gotten a UFC two ninety

953
00:46:49,960 --> 00:46:52,360
Speaker 1: eight prediction from him instead of a Super Bowl prediction.

954
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:53,680
Speaker 6: But he was ready to bring it with.

955
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,640
Speaker 1: The analysis on that ur I ray long go coming

956
00:46:55,719 --> 00:46:58,920
Speaker 1: up in sixty seconds. But Lucy is upping the nicotine

957
00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:02,040
Speaker 1: pouch game with breaks. Pouches pack in a little something

958
00:47:02,040 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 1: extra inside. So what are Lucy breakers exactly? Well, if

959
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:06,799
Speaker 1: you know your pouches, you know the nicotine does not

960
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,600
Speaker 1: hit immediately, and neither does the flavor. Well, the genius

961
00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,880
Speaker 1: is that Lucy came up with a brilliant way to

962
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,320
Speaker 1: fix both of those problems. You put a mini liquid

963
00:47:15,360 --> 00:47:19,720
Speaker 1: capsule inside each breaker's pouch. You grab yourself a breaker's pouch,

964
00:47:19,760 --> 00:47:22,160
Speaker 1: break the capsule, yes, with your teeth. Actually makes a

965
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,640
Speaker 1: pretty satisfying pop. Put it in your lip and enjoy

966
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:26,040
Speaker 1: the immediate nicotine and flavor.

967
00:47:26,080 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 6: Release.

968
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,600
Speaker 1: It as a new kind of pouch technology and it

969
00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:32,440
Speaker 1: is only available from Lucy one hundred percent pure nicotine,

00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:51,319
Speaker 3: Look, we do.

00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:56,120

995
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,000
Speaker 1: heck put Look it looks okay. I think you could

996
00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,000
Speaker 1: have gone a little bit shorter. How about Ken Flow's

997
00:49:04,040 --> 00:49:04,719
Speaker 1: fucking hair cut?

998
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:05,399
Speaker 6: You see this guy?

999
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:10,560
Speaker 5: Yeah? Wow, yeah, wow, I just learned what.

1000
00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:13,680
Speaker 4: The rat tails going in the back?

1001
00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:18,320
Speaker 1: Wowas So, I met Ken Flow in two thousand and seven,

1002
00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:21,600
Speaker 1: which is crazy, right. I met him in Somerville, Massachusetts

1003
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:26,840
Speaker 1: at mock Dela Grotty's place, right, And therefore, anytime Kenny

1004
00:49:26,840 --> 00:49:29,040
Speaker 1: would show up at ESPN with like a skin fader

1005
00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:30,480
Speaker 1: or short hair, could be like, dude, you look great?

1006
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:32,560
Speaker 6: Like why this all the time?

1007
00:49:32,600 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 3: You know?

1008
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:36,319
Speaker 6: But men in their hair, we all have our own

1009
00:49:36,360 --> 00:49:37,239
Speaker 6: issues with our hair.

1010
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:37,480
Speaker 5: Right.

1011
00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,920
Speaker 1: I have been essentially bicking my head bald since I

1012
00:49:39,960 --> 00:49:42,319
Speaker 1: was fourteen years old, despite the fact that I have

1013
00:49:42,360 --> 00:49:44,000
Speaker 1: a full head of hair. Right, I'm just trying to

1014
00:49:44,040 --> 00:49:46,879
Speaker 1: be the most confident version of myself, and I feel

1015
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:48,319
Speaker 1: like this makes me look tougher, and that's why I

1016
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:51,680
Speaker 1: shave my head. But I you know, I mean, you

1017
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: look good.

1018
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:52,319
Speaker 3: Ray.

1019
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 1: I just think you could have gone a little bit short,

1020
00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:55,840
Speaker 1: like you have hair coming down over your ears. But

1021
00:49:55,880 --> 00:49:57,399
Speaker 1: if that's the desired effect.

1022
00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:57,560
Speaker 6: You look great.

1023
00:49:57,680 --> 00:49:59,200
Speaker 3: I don't know it.

1024
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:00,520
Speaker 6: That's all right.

1025
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 1: So, dude, we just talked to eighteen year NFL veteran

1026
00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:09,520
Speaker 1: Marcedes Lewis, So we apologize for being a few minutes

1027
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,920
Speaker 1: late with you. But what a fascinating individual and a

1028
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:13,799
Speaker 1: really accomplished guy.

1029
00:50:13,840 --> 00:50:14,799
Speaker 6: And it's just really cool.

1030
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:17,880
Speaker 1: I think to see a lot of these NFL and

1031
00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:22,400
Speaker 1: NBA and Major League Baseball players and athletes loving on

1032
00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 1: the UFC. Right, they're obsessed with this, watching forty plus

1033
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:26,239
Speaker 1: live events a year.

1034
00:50:26,239 --> 00:50:26,799
Speaker 6: It's pretty cool.

1035
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:27,359
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1036
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,359
Speaker 10: Plus I tell you, like I told you, we had

1037
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 10: a bunch couple of the Islanders, and so even the

1038
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:32,800
Speaker 10: hockey guys.

1039
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:35,120
Speaker 5: Man, I knew the obsessed. Yeah, I know.

1040
00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:38,879
Speaker 10: When the wolf from herd his knee and he was out,

1041
00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 10: he said when I talked to him. So all I'm

1042
00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:44,040
Speaker 10: doing is watching fights. I mean, so, yeah, they're really

1043
00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 10: into it. And like Kenny said, the guy spoke spoke beautifully.

1044
00:50:50,280 --> 00:50:53,480
Speaker 10: He really you could tell he's passionate about watching it,

1045
00:50:53,600 --> 00:50:55,000
Speaker 10: He's into it, and you know.

1046
00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:59,239
Speaker 5: That's it's fantastic, you know, you know it's even more fantastic.

1047
00:50:59,360 --> 00:50:59,520
Speaker 3: Day.

1048
00:50:59,640 --> 00:51:02,080
Speaker 5: What's that We've been doing this for like thirty years

1049
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:03,000
Speaker 5: at this point.

1050
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:07,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, coming up on the nine year anniversary of this program.

1051
00:51:07,880 --> 00:51:10,880
Speaker 1: That first week about we started in twenty fifteen, and

1052
00:51:10,960 --> 00:51:13,319
Speaker 1: Ray Longo of course was a part of that episode.

1053
00:51:13,560 --> 00:51:17,840
Speaker 1: By design, Ray Longo minute literally dates to episode number one.

1054
00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:19,520
Speaker 1: So I've got a few things to get to with

1055
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:21,600
Speaker 1: you today. I certainly want to get your thoughts on

1056
00:51:21,960 --> 00:51:25,280
Speaker 1: UFC Fight Night, Ema Vov versus Dallidze. But Al Jamain

1057
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,360
Speaker 1: Sterling was on the MMA Hour and he was talking

1058
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,959
Speaker 1: about now fighting at one hundred and forty five pounds,

1059
00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 1: and I just feel like, not only are these quotes telling,

1060
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 1: but humbly I've been trying to tell our viewers, like

1061
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:37,880
Speaker 1: the extent to which Kenny, this dude stared death in

1062
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:40,359
Speaker 1: the face right cutting down to one thirty five right,

1063
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:43,279
Speaker 1: And now finally he's essentially going on the record, and

1064
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:46,279
Speaker 1: it almost makes his accomplishments even more impressive.

1065
00:51:46,640 --> 00:51:47,400
Speaker 6: Here's the quote.

1066
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:49,799
Speaker 1: Just the thought of it cutting down to thirty five

1067
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,600
Speaker 1: again gives me a headache. And makes me nauseous. Like

1068
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:54,120
Speaker 1: people tell me I wear it well and I don't

1069
00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:55,839
Speaker 1: look like I'm hurting. Oh yeah, it's such a great

1070
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:58,440
Speaker 1: weight cut. I'm like, I'm literally dying inside. I could

1071
00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:00,680
Speaker 1: poker face at all I want, because that's just the

1072
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,880
Speaker 1: way I've always been. It's like, you don't show weakness

1073
00:52:02,880 --> 00:52:04,279
Speaker 1: in that way. You always try to show people that

1074
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:05,879
Speaker 1: you're good even when you're not. But I know I've

1075
00:52:05,920 --> 00:52:08,440
Speaker 1: been hurting for a very very long time, and I

1076
00:52:08,440 --> 00:52:10,839
Speaker 1: even think that my past performances have kind of not

1077
00:52:10,880 --> 00:52:13,480
Speaker 1: been the best because of that. And he's very excited

1078
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,840
Speaker 1: about competing at forty five and even talked about just

1079
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,920
Speaker 1: being full of energy enough to like engage the crowd,

1080
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,719
Speaker 1: you know, Like I don't know, man, like it brings.

1081
00:52:23,560 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 6: Up a whole greater weightcutting conversation.

1082
00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: But I just hate that he's been suffering so long,

1083
00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:29,759
Speaker 1: you know, And I'm glad that he's going to get

1084
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:31,439
Speaker 1: the chance to compete in the UFC at forty five.

1085
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:32,320
Speaker 5: Man.

1086
00:52:32,400 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 10: No, uh, look, I don't think anybody, look, that's not

1087
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:38,480
Speaker 10: money at the field of expertise that I try to

1088
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,200
Speaker 10: stay out of that. But I don't think anybody enjoys

1089
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,960
Speaker 10: weight cutting, and especially when you've done it over and

1090
00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:47,840
Speaker 10: over again, you're getting older and you're as jacked as Aljo.

1091
00:52:48,000 --> 00:52:50,840
Speaker 10: I mean, that's a fascinating part to me is like

1092
00:52:51,400 --> 00:52:54,160
Speaker 10: where is he getting the weight? Where is he coming from?

1093
00:52:54,160 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 10: Like the guy's all muscled, you know when you see

1094
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 10: him in some of those pictures, he's just he shredded.

1095
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:03,640
Speaker 10: So uh yeah, I think this is exciting. And and again,

1096
00:53:04,480 --> 00:53:08,040
Speaker 10: you know, perception is reality, so he if he's really

1097
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 10: feeling that, and you know he can actually you know

1098
00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:14,239
Speaker 10: he's telling you, I get nauseous just thinking about it,

1099
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:16,879
Speaker 10: which if you could trigger that type of response to them,

1100
00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,880
Speaker 10: that's pretty crazy, man. So I'm happy for him going up.

1101
00:53:21,280 --> 00:53:23,360
Speaker 10: You know, I just told he doesn't go up so

1102
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:27,120
Speaker 10: much that that this weightcut will then become make up

1103
00:53:27,200 --> 00:53:31,920
Speaker 10: nauseous thinking about it because he's got to stop. Last

1104
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:35,919
Speaker 10: time I said him a couple of weeks ago. He's big, man,

1105
00:53:36,000 --> 00:53:38,480
Speaker 10: He's so we don't want to hope that doesn't have

1106
00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:41,200
Speaker 10: but he's a he's a very smart and intelligent guy,

1107
00:53:41,280 --> 00:53:43,840
Speaker 10: so I'm sure he's he's well, this this will be

1108
00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 10: well thought out.

1109
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 7: I remember when I cut down to forty five, looking

1110
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:52,120
Speaker 7: so many interviewers right in their eye and having the

1111
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:56,759
Speaker 7: balls to go this is probably my easiest weightcut, like

1112
00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:59,279
Speaker 7: like saying stuff that, you know, like you have to

1113
00:53:59,320 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 7: come up with these not only to like put out

1114
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 7: I guess disinformation for your opponents.

1115
00:54:03,960 --> 00:54:05,480
Speaker 4: You know, you don't want your opponent to know.

1116
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:07,839
Speaker 7: This is the worst weight cut you've ever experienced, right,

1117
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 7: So you know it. There's that aspect of it, but

1118
00:54:10,520 --> 00:54:14,360
Speaker 7: also there's like the convincing of yourself, like, hey, I'm

1119
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,239
Speaker 7: gonna do this, I gotta do this. So it's tough

1120
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:20,920
Speaker 7: when you have you know, you know, an organization like

1121
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:23,680
Speaker 7: the UFC, with so many great fighters, you have to

1122
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:27,279
Speaker 7: look for any edge you can. And you know, it's

1123
00:54:27,320 --> 00:54:29,520
Speaker 7: not like Al Joe's the only guy having a tough

1124
00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:31,640
Speaker 7: time down to one hundred and thirty five pounds. These

1125
00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:35,320
Speaker 7: are massive individuals across the board in all weight divisions

1126
00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:39,239
Speaker 7: because everybody is looking for every little advantage that they can.

1127
00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:40,920
Speaker 7: Why because it matters.

1128
00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:41,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, And I know.

1129
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:45,120
Speaker 10: We've told the story a thousand times John, but when

1130
00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:49,239
Speaker 10: he first made forty five, he wasn't looking. He might

1131
00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,600
Speaker 10: have been, I wasn't there when he was looking at

1132
00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:56,319
Speaker 10: anybody in the face. Man when when that when that

1133
00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,080
Speaker 10: guy was asking me he got to fill out the

1134
00:54:58,280 --> 00:54:59,799
Speaker 10: w line it's gotta be done.

1135
00:54:59,800 --> 00:55:02,719
Speaker 5: That he did, I'm saying there was no response.

1136
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:08,360
Speaker 10: John, I'm literally and I'm very vivid on it, you know, memory,

1137
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,600
Speaker 10: my short third memory, because I was sitting next to him,

1138
00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:13,680
Speaker 10: and that guy didn't leave him alone.

1139
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:16,839
Speaker 5: And finally they get to the point, hey, buddy, get

1140
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:17,640
Speaker 5: the fucking.

1141
00:55:17,320 --> 00:55:19,680
Speaker 10: Out of hit the guy like like he had no

1142
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 10: team for them, which is this was the other crazy?

1143
00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 10: It was can he me and Wieman just sitting there

1144
00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:28,439
Speaker 10: and he didn't I'm saying he didn't say work.

1145
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,719
Speaker 5: There wasn't a syllable that came out of his mouth.

1146
00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:32,839
Speaker 4: And he was.

1147
00:55:34,520 --> 00:55:37,160
Speaker 6: Right, you know, you're telling me to life.

1148
00:55:37,360 --> 00:55:39,080
Speaker 10: Yeah, you tell you one thing. He didn't say, buddy,

1149
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 10: can they do it after the way? And you know, zero,

1150
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 10: he's I'm telling you the truth. He's probably even downplaying

1151
00:55:49,239 --> 00:55:52,200
Speaker 10: it a little bit. But nothing, nothing came out of

1152
00:55:52,239 --> 00:55:56,359
Speaker 10: his mouth. Nothing. He might have pleased an eyebrow he did.

1153
00:55:56,400 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 10: When I got rid of that guy, he didn't even

1154
00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,360
Speaker 10: say thank you to me. He put his and on

1155
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:03,439
Speaker 10: my knee. It just you know, clap down like saying

1156
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,960
Speaker 10: it like a horse, a horse, how wold he is

1157
00:56:07,000 --> 00:56:09,800
Speaker 10: and he's piss off and he starts pounding it.

1158
00:56:10,040 --> 00:56:13,120
Speaker 5: That's what it was. Yeah, I'm not.

1159
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,799
Speaker 1: No, I'm not laughing. I heard laughing right. He had

1160
00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:23,719
Speaker 1: lost all verbal communication ability. I do you know, I

1161
00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 1: always lean into the kenflow stuff, So more on this

1162
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 1: than about ten seconds. I just want to let everybody

1163
00:56:28,200 --> 00:56:30,960
Speaker 1: know Randy Rubboy Brown after a big win, is scheduled

1164
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:32,319
Speaker 1: to join us here in a few minutes. So if

1165
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,959
Speaker 1: he's on schedule, Ray, we'll keep you for our entire

1166
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:37,640
Speaker 1: conversation with Randy and then time permitting get to some

1167
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:40,799
Speaker 1: other chuck buffalos and things like that on the back end.

1168
00:56:40,840 --> 00:56:44,520
Speaker 1: But I believe on the MMA on point YouTube channel,

1169
00:56:45,000 --> 00:56:47,239
Speaker 1: there is a video right now, and sorry if I

1170
00:56:47,280 --> 00:56:49,080
Speaker 1: have the credit wrong on the ten.

1171
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:51,960
Speaker 6: Least hit able fighters in UFC history.

1172
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,400
Speaker 1: And I was actually gonna save this for our episode

1173
00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:56,839
Speaker 1: later in the week, but I'm leaning into it right

1174
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,879
Speaker 1: now because Kenny, I wonder if you were not statistically

1175
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 1: one of the ten least hit able fighters in UFC history,

1176
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:06,360
Speaker 1: and you had been knocked out or concusted one hundred

1177
00:57:06,360 --> 00:57:09,800
Speaker 1: and forty five pounds or even absorb some appreciable damage.

1178
00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,319
Speaker 1: I mean, you sort of slipped when Diego neonaz Hitch

1179
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,959
Speaker 1: in that featherweight fight, but you didn't take a lot

1180
00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:17,600
Speaker 1: of power shots to the head in your two UFC

1181
00:57:17,680 --> 00:57:21,400
Speaker 1: featherweight appearances. But I wonder had you if maybe there

1182
00:57:21,400 --> 00:57:26,040
Speaker 1: would have been some regret for putting your body through

1183
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,400
Speaker 1: all of this, right, because I know we can sort

1184
00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:31,720
Speaker 1: of laugh about it now, but like inside, I'm not laughing,

1185
00:57:31,960 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 1: you know.

1186
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:36,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, for sure, Listen, man, I think that at

1187
00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:39,120
Speaker 7: one hundred and forty five pounds, I think I would

1188
00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 7: have seen some of those shots coming. Like the shot

1189
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 7: that Diego Nunez threw on me. Would that dropped me

1190
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 7: to a knee? I think it was at the end

1191
00:57:46,560 --> 00:57:49,400
Speaker 7: of the third round or something like that. I think

1192
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:51,800
Speaker 7: those shots not only would I probably seen coming, but

1193
00:57:52,040 --> 00:57:53,959
Speaker 7: I don't think it would have done the same kind

1194
00:57:53,960 --> 00:57:56,840
Speaker 7: of would have had the same impact on me if

1195
00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:58,880
Speaker 7: it was at one hundred and fifty five pounds for example,

1196
00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:01,680
Speaker 7: Maybe I don't know. Yeah, but you know, when when

1197
00:58:01,720 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 7: you're cutting that much weight, you know, I remember just

1198
00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 7: having I felt fine, but my body would just give out,

1199
00:58:07,040 --> 00:58:09,080
Speaker 7: like I just kind of dropped to one knee after

1200
00:58:09,080 --> 00:58:11,720
Speaker 7: getting hit with that shot. And I'm sure a lot

1201
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:13,720
Speaker 7: of it had to do with with the extreme weight cut.

1202
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:15,320
Speaker 7: For sure, we're gonna.

1203
00:58:15,080 --> 00:58:17,560
Speaker 1: Go wide right now, Raymond, if you could table that

1204
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 1: for a second, because with us, I'm looking hey and

1205
00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:23,919
Speaker 1: you'd expect him to have a great setup. Of course,

1206
00:58:24,200 --> 00:58:26,160
Speaker 1: forty eight hours after his twelfth you f c win.

1207
00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:29,840
Speaker 1: You have to middleweight welterweight contender. Excuse me, Randy rudeboy

1208
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:32,560
Speaker 1: brown rude boy. Congratulations, my man. We appreciate the time.

1209
00:58:32,560 --> 00:58:34,440
Speaker 1: How are you doing, Thank you man, thank you?

1210
00:58:34,440 --> 00:58:34,800

Speaker 3: Everybody? Thanks for having me? Man?

1212
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,439
Speaker 1: So I sent Ken Flow the video. So were you

1213
00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:42,960
Speaker 1: awarded your Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt after this win?

1214
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:43,720
Speaker 6: Is that what happened?

1215
00:58:44,000 --> 00:58:44,080
Speaker 5: And?

1216
00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:48,840
Speaker 11: Man like crazy crazy that superseded everything of the night

1217
00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:49,120
Speaker 11: for you.

1218
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:50,360
Speaker 3: Damn.

1219
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:53,440
Speaker 1: I know Kenny's happy to hear that, and I'm glad

1220
00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: that that we didn't bury the lead. So I know

1221
00:58:56,040 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 1: you've been in brown belt for how long now?

1222
00:58:58,720 --> 00:58:59,560
Speaker 8: Man, I don't even know.

1223
00:58:59,640 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 11: I've been a brown belf for about six years maybe more.

1224
00:59:04,920 --> 00:59:06,720
Speaker 8: At this point, I thought I was never gonna go

1225
00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 8: ad four stripes.

1226
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,160
Speaker 11: I was just he just had me sitting there I

1227
00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:11,080
Speaker 11: was like, all right, I guess I'm not showing up

1228
00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:12,280
Speaker 11: to gua enough for something.

1229
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 1: So what conversations did you have with your coach after

1230
00:59:17,000 --> 00:59:18,880
Speaker 1: the fact, and why was now the time?

1231
00:59:18,920 --> 00:59:20,240
Speaker 6: Any idea or what do you say?

1232
00:59:20,880 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 11: I think that for him, I was ready, oh for

1233
00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:27,280
Speaker 11: a while now, but I think it was more so

1234
00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:29,920
Speaker 11: also a thing where it's more, it's more than just

1235
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:31,960
Speaker 11: a physical thing with him, you know, he was like,

1236
00:59:32,000 --> 00:59:33,880
Speaker 11: all right, I know you've been prepared.

1237
00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:35,160
Speaker 8: I know you're a black belt.

1238
00:59:35,000 --> 00:59:38,480
Speaker 11: Level skill wise and you have the knowledge, but it's

1239
00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:40,680
Speaker 11: more than that. And I want you to be somewhere

1240
00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:43,600
Speaker 11: mentally where I know you could be and you have

1241
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,760
Speaker 11: the potential to be, and I just want to see

1242
00:59:45,760 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 11: that from you, and I want to see that amongst

1243
00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:50,040
Speaker 11: you and the other guys in the gym, and just

1244
00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:51,880
Speaker 11: the way you carry yourself and you know how you

1245
00:59:51,920 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 11: handle certain things, and you've seen me do that and

1246
00:59:54,880 --> 00:59:56,240
Speaker 11: you know, just watch me grow up.

1247
00:59:56,360 --> 00:59:58,040
Speaker 8: And he felt like that was the time to do it.

1248
00:59:59,400 --> 00:59:59,720
Speaker 4: Ready.

1249
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:03,600
Speaker 7: I I think over the course of your career, that's

1250
01:00:03,640 --> 01:00:05,560
Speaker 7: what not only myself, but I think a lot of

1251
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:09,120
Speaker 7: people see, is that you see these flashes of brilliance,

1252
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:12,480
Speaker 7: you know, from you, and now I think with that

1253
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:16,400
Speaker 7: last fight on Saturday night, you were able to really

1254
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:21,040
Speaker 7: put it all together into a complete, really a perfect performance.

1255
01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,280
Speaker 4: Do you feel like you were able to kind of?

1256
01:00:23,480 --> 01:00:25,760
Speaker 7: I know, I'm sure you have more to show, but

1257
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 7: do you feel like that was one of your more

1258
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:29,280
Speaker 7: complete performances so far?

1259
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:31,280
Speaker 3: Absolutely?

1260
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:32,200
Speaker 8: Absolutely.

1261
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:36,520
Speaker 11: I've always known about, you know, the things that I'm

1262
01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:38,600
Speaker 11: capable of in the gym, and it's always I've been

1263
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:40,800
Speaker 11: always wondering if I was one of those guys, because

1264
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 11: you always hear people say, well, and some guys are

1265
01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,000
Speaker 11: in the gym, they're amazing in the gym, and when

1266
01:00:45,000 --> 01:00:47,200
Speaker 11: they show up, they just you know, And I always

1267
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 11: started to question myself at times. I was like, maybe

1268
01:00:49,960 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 11: maybe I'm one of those people that people talk about. Man,

1269
01:00:52,240 --> 01:00:53,920
Speaker 11: I'm the best guy in the gym, and then when

1270
01:00:53,960 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 11: I go out there, I just can't perform. And I

1271
01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 11: believe that just came with experience and time for me

1272
01:00:59,680 --> 01:01:04,600
Speaker 11: because my other coach, Hi, he always says, my problem

1273
01:01:04,640 --> 01:01:07,680
Speaker 11: is I have so much in my utility belt, and

1274
01:01:08,680 --> 01:01:11,120
Speaker 11: I get in my mind, I get like I want

1275
01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:12,520
Speaker 11: to try this, and then I want to do that,

1276
01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:14,360
Speaker 11: and then now let's try this and now let's do that,

1277
01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:16,240
Speaker 11: and now let's do that, and then I'm never focused

1278
01:01:16,280 --> 01:01:19,840
Speaker 11: on like, hey, do this thing works, stick with that,

1279
01:01:20,000 --> 01:01:23,120
Speaker 11: it works, do it and continue to have success with that,

1280
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:25,360
Speaker 11: I'll have success, and I'll just start doing some other thing,

1281
01:01:25,680 --> 01:01:27,960
Speaker 11: you know, because I want to put on a show

1282
01:01:28,000 --> 01:01:30,000
Speaker 11: and I want to create and show art and show

1283
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:32,640
Speaker 11: so much, you know, whereas just go get the job

1284
01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:34,800
Speaker 11: done and be effective and be efficient. And I started

1285
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:36,920
Speaker 11: to just kind of, you know, hone into the things

1286
01:01:36,960 --> 01:01:38,560
Speaker 11: that I do really well and just focus on one

1287
01:01:38,600 --> 01:01:40,960
Speaker 11: thing at a time and not overcomplicated.

1288
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,960
Speaker 7: I think that was what was probably most clear, Randy,

1289
01:01:44,080 --> 01:01:47,560
Speaker 7: is that your fundamentals were so clean, like I think

1290
01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:50,000
Speaker 7: a lot of people get caught up in I guess

1291
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:52,880
Speaker 7: kind of what you're saying and using all these flashy

1292
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 7: moves and doing this and doing that, and the reality

1293
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:58,439
Speaker 7: is like, if your stance is good, your balance is good,

1294
01:01:58,520 --> 01:02:00,760
Speaker 7: and you're just throwing the right strikes the right time, man,

1295
01:02:00,840 --> 01:02:03,520
Speaker 7: everything's going to take care of itself. And to me,

1296
01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,720
Speaker 7: it just seemed like there was a lot of substance,

1297
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,280
Speaker 7: like real martial arts going on with your performance, and

1298
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:13,200
Speaker 7: it showed, uh, is this one of those fights that

1299
01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:16,680
Speaker 7: you can build on and get tougher competition and kind

1300
01:02:16,720 --> 01:02:19,760
Speaker 7: of start breaking into you know, showing people that you're

1301
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:21,600
Speaker 7: one of the top pult weights in the world.

1302
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 11: Absolutely without a doubt. You know, that's something I've been

1303
01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:26,840
Speaker 11: adamant about for a long time. And I mean if

1304
01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:28,560
Speaker 11: and I think that the people, if they know anything

1305
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:30,560
Speaker 11: about the sport, or not even just the sport, if

1306
01:02:30,560 --> 01:02:33,200
Speaker 11: you know anything about martial arts, I mean, look at me.

1307
01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:36,280
Speaker 11: I have the skill set. I am a competitor. I'm

1308
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:38,080
Speaker 11: one of the top guys in the world. It's just

1309
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,240
Speaker 11: a matter of but me in position to get me

1310
01:02:40,320 --> 01:02:42,360
Speaker 11: those fights. And if I get those fights, I'll show.

1311
01:02:43,680 --> 01:02:44,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I.

1312
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:47,840
Speaker 10: Can attest Kenny and the Jimmy is a legitimate badist

1313
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:52,960
Speaker 10: about that. But good to see. I haven't seen you

1314
01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:57,320
Speaker 10: in a while, but for sure, stick who you had

1315
01:02:57,360 --> 01:02:59,640
Speaker 10: to throw that right here like that stick with that guy.

1316
01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 5: That guy is. If you want to see a picture

1317
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 5: of perfect follow through, just look.

1318
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 10: Where by the ends up like full commitment. That's the

1319
01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 10: way to throw a right hand period.

1320
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:13,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, thank you.

1321
01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:17,280
Speaker 10: Congratulation. That was beautiful, like it was blown away by that.

1322
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:18,080
Speaker 10: Really nice.

1323
01:03:18,280 --> 01:03:21,439
Speaker 1: I appreciate it, right, Thank you Real Boy Randy Brown

1324
01:03:21,440 --> 01:03:23,640
Speaker 1: with us here on the Anaican Florian Podcast. So that

1325
01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:27,000
Speaker 1: Jack Della Matt Atlanta fight seems so in the rear

1326
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:30,600
Speaker 1: view mirror. Now you've won six of seven, and for

1327
01:03:30,840 --> 01:03:33,680
Speaker 1: fans like me right who have been championing your cause

1328
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:35,960
Speaker 1: for a while, we're just excited to see you now

1329
01:03:36,040 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 1: get these big fights. And I have no doubt that

1330
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:40,920
Speaker 1: you're going to get a big fight. I guess I

1331
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,560
Speaker 1: would just ask a question about like Michael venim Page

1332
01:03:43,640 --> 01:03:47,360
Speaker 1: versus Kevin Holland at UFC two ninety nine, right, like,

1333
01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:49,760
Speaker 1: if they need someone to step in on a couple

1334
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:52,960
Speaker 1: of weeks, notice, right, Yeah, to what extent can you

1335
01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:53,560
Speaker 1: be that guy?

1336
01:03:54,680 --> 01:03:58,440
Speaker 11: One hundred percent? I can be that guy honestly, even

1337
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:00,360
Speaker 11: if they need a backup for the fight. I know

1338
01:04:00,360 --> 01:04:02,560
Speaker 11: they typically don't do that only for Typh fight, but

1339
01:04:03,200 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 11: I'm here. I'm that guy, and honestly, winner or loser,

1340
01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:09,680
Speaker 11: I'm here. You know, even a guy like Wonder Boy

1341
01:04:09,680 --> 01:04:11,120
Speaker 11: I think would be a good matchup. You know, I

1342
01:04:11,120 --> 01:04:13,640
Speaker 11: think that whole synchrony of guys right there, I think

1343
01:04:13,640 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 11: that I'm right there with them, and I think just stylistically,

1344
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:18,440
Speaker 11: you know, I make things really interesting with me in

1345
01:04:18,480 --> 01:04:19,000
Speaker 11: the mix there.

1346
01:04:19,640 --> 01:04:22,200
Speaker 1: Michael Kiessa was one name on the tip of your tongue,

1347
01:04:22,240 --> 01:04:25,520
Speaker 1: and I know you sort of have talked about his inactivity.

1348
01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:28,400
Speaker 1: The record is what it is. Certainly he has a

1349
01:04:28,520 --> 01:04:30,960
Speaker 1: number still that potentially you would like to grab I

1350
01:04:30,960 --> 01:04:33,920
Speaker 1: think fourteenth in the world right now. And I guess

1351
01:04:33,920 --> 01:04:35,760
Speaker 1: for you, I mean not putting words in your mouth,

1352
01:04:35,800 --> 01:04:38,800
Speaker 1: but you want to make sure that this fight happens expeditiously, right,

1353
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:40,360
Speaker 1: Like you're not going to wait half a year to

1354
01:04:40,360 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 1: fight Michael Kiessa. But it seems like he does have

1355
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:44,440
Speaker 1: some appetite for the fight, is that right?

1356
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:48,120
Speaker 11: Yes, we spoke, you know, and I mean we've spoken

1357
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,400
Speaker 11: so many times at this point, you know, but this

1358
01:04:50,520 --> 01:04:53,680
Speaker 11: time it seems like he's you know, he's he's actually down,

1359
01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:56,320
Speaker 11: you know. And he said he wants to get it done.

1360
01:04:56,360 --> 01:04:58,440
Speaker 11: He said three hunchreds a little bit too early, but

1361
01:04:58,520 --> 01:05:01,680
Speaker 11: he'll be down. And listen, it's not me just locking

1362
01:05:01,680 --> 01:05:03,040
Speaker 11: in on him and saying it has to be him

1363
01:05:03,120 --> 01:05:05,360
Speaker 11: or nothing. I mean, no, I just want to fight

1364
01:05:05,360 --> 01:05:07,600
Speaker 11: in the rankings, you know. And I think that the

1365
01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:10,640
Speaker 11: reason why him is just he hasn't been active and

1366
01:05:10,680 --> 01:05:11,560
Speaker 11: I'm a guy I believe.

1367
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 8: I believe that you have to.

1368
01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:17,360
Speaker 11: Prove that you are worthy of being I think you're

1369
01:05:17,400 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 11: the top fifteen and you're the top guy in the world.

1370
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:20,680
Speaker 8: You got to prove it all the guys.

1371
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 11: When I'm in the rankings, I'm going to fight anybody

1372
01:05:22,880 --> 01:05:27,280
Speaker 11: to prove and defend you know, my number. You can't

1373
01:05:27,320 --> 01:05:28,920
Speaker 11: just kind of just sit around and just say, hey,

1374
01:05:28,920 --> 01:05:32,320
Speaker 11: well I did this back in the day, so I'm

1375
01:05:32,320 --> 01:05:33,640
Speaker 11: the top guy right.

1376
01:05:33,920 --> 01:05:36,760
Speaker 1: No, and your division has been challenging in terms of

1377
01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:40,160
Speaker 1: top fifteen guys making the walk right. I mean, certainly

1378
01:05:40,360 --> 01:05:42,880
Speaker 1: Neil Magne deserves a lot of credit for always being

1379
01:05:42,920 --> 01:05:44,920
Speaker 1: ready to go and be in the promotional workhorse, But

1380
01:05:45,160 --> 01:05:48,640
Speaker 1: for one reason or another, guys like Jeff Neil and

1381
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:51,240
Speaker 1: Kolby Covington, autul On gos Right, guys who have had

1382
01:05:51,400 --> 01:05:55,280
Speaker 1: extended absences. So I don't know if this is a

1383
01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 1: fair question, like how much time do you really need

1384
01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,200
Speaker 1: to be able to make the way, Because part of

1385
01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:01,480
Speaker 1: the reason I bring up m VP and Kevin Holland

1386
01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,840
Speaker 1: is that even if neither guy is ranked right like,

1387
01:06:04,920 --> 01:06:07,080
Speaker 1: big fights are on the horizon for you, and sometimes

1388
01:06:07,120 --> 01:06:09,120
Speaker 1: it can just be as simple as right like Gilbert

1389
01:06:09,160 --> 01:06:11,400
Speaker 1: Burns and Jack Dela Madelena fight that night, right, Like,

1390
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 1: if Derio can't make the walk, you know, I'd love

1391
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:17,560
Speaker 1: to see you and Jack running back, right, So you

1392
01:06:17,720 --> 01:06:20,880
Speaker 1: need to and how ready can you realistically stay without

1393
01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:22,120
Speaker 1: burning yourself out?

1394
01:06:22,720 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 11: I make way pretty easily, contrary to popular belief. People

1395
01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,800
Speaker 11: think I'm really big. I got these skinny legs, you

1396
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 11: know what I mean, I make I make way pretty easily.

1397
01:06:30,920 --> 01:06:35,360
Speaker 11: So that's so that's a huge possibility. That's a massive possibility.

1398
01:06:35,400 --> 01:06:37,120
Speaker 11: And I mean I'm not a guy that I get

1399
01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:39,440
Speaker 11: I blow up and balloon up after fights. I'm typically

1400
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:42,520
Speaker 11: in shape and ready to go. So they need someone.

1401
01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:43,760
Speaker 11: I'm ready.

1402
01:06:43,760 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 1: I'm here, all right, good, I'm trying to manifest this.

1403
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:48,520
Speaker 1: I don't want anybody to get hurt. But I just

1404
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:52,000
Speaker 1: see a lot of and I'll tell you this, John,

1405
01:06:52,080 --> 01:06:52,640
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this.

1406
01:06:52,720 --> 01:06:55,240
Speaker 11: I mean and and people are gonna take this however,

1407
01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:58,919
Speaker 11: But you know, in that Jack fight, man, I got caught, man.

1408
01:06:59,080 --> 01:07:01,280
Speaker 11: And it's not taking anything away from Jack. Jack is

1409
01:07:01,280 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 11: an incredible athlete, an incredible fighter. But I zigged when

1410
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 11: I was supposed to zag, and I veered from the

1411
01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:07,480
Speaker 11: game plan of.

1412
01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:09,240
Speaker 8: What I should have the way I should have approached

1413
01:07:09,280 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 8: it for my coaches.

1414
01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,480
Speaker 11: I took a punch that I couldn't recover from in time,

1415
01:07:13,480 --> 01:07:15,600
Speaker 11: and he jumped on my back and I'm telling you,

1416
01:07:15,800 --> 01:07:16,520
Speaker 11: we fight again.

1417
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:19,560
Speaker 8: It does not play out like that, I promise it.

1418
01:07:20,520 --> 01:07:20,960
Speaker 6: I love it.

1419
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:23,280
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see it if it does materialize.

1420
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,200

1439
01:08:07,040 --> 01:08:08,440

1444
01:08:19,720 --> 01:08:22,559
Speaker 1: There he is Randy Rude Boy Brown with us here

1445
01:08:22,560 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 1: on the Ankanplort and podcast. Chemflow was so excited after

1446
01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:27,120
Speaker 1: what he did this weekend. It sounds like Ray so

1447
01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:27,639
Speaker 1: were you.

1448
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:31,040
Speaker 10: Oh no, listen, that right hand was thrown just I

1449
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:34,160
Speaker 10: watched the follow through man with a long, lanky guy.

1450
01:08:34,720 --> 01:08:38,240
Speaker 10: What I'm confused on is he's said, contrary to popular belief,

1451
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:40,680
Speaker 10: he's not big. The guy's huge, Okay.

1452
01:08:41,840 --> 01:08:45,360
Speaker 1: Tough, It's not as tough a cut as maybe you

1453
01:08:45,400 --> 01:08:47,559
Speaker 1: would believe because he's six three.

1454
01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:47,600
Speaker 3: You know.

1455
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,160
Speaker 10: And I'm glad you asked that young, because I would

1456
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:53,240
Speaker 10: think that guy has a horrible cut because he's big.

1457
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:53,519
Speaker 9: Man.

1458
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:58,400
Speaker 10: He's a big, big kid at one seventy. But Joe,

1459
01:08:58,520 --> 01:09:00,559
Speaker 10: before I forget too, I got a couple we had

1460
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:03,040

1463
01:09:10,040 --> 01:09:13,160

1464
01:09:13,160 --> 01:09:16,040

Speaker 10: three and only tickboxing.

1466
01:09:18,200 --> 01:09:20,759
Speaker 5: She for the first MMA fight. I think she's forty

1467
01:09:20,840 --> 01:09:23,320
Speaker 5: years old. Just a beautiful person.

1468
01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:25,120
Speaker 10: I don't even know what I'm looking at, like when

1469
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:27,560
Speaker 10: I see her, like I can't believe this' like you know,

1470
01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:29,840
Speaker 10: because she's a great mother and she jumps in there.

1471
01:09:29,920 --> 01:09:33,479
Speaker 5: She loves the crowd. Got the first MMA.

1472
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:37,920
Speaker 10: When that's over the moon, he's and that was it.

1473
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:42,000
Speaker 5: He also had Tommy did Georgio fight great kid?

01:09:58,920 --> 01:09:59,960
Speaker 10: of horse but he did great.

1481
01:10:00,280 --> 01:10:00,599
Speaker 3: Uh.

1482
01:10:00,720 --> 01:10:02,720
Speaker 10: I know Steve Lee thought he won for sure. So

1483
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:05,280
Speaker 10: it was a great night for everybody. But I haven't

1484
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:07,240
Speaker 10: thrown that in it because I think Ann Servage just

1485
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:08,000
Speaker 10: blows me away.

1486
01:10:08,040 --> 01:10:09,160
Speaker 6: I mean, that's amazing.

01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:12,200

1492
01:10:26,560 --> 01:10:27,679

1502
01:10:57,560 --> 01:11:00,080
Speaker 1: was born in Springfield, Massachusetts because there was probably a

Speaker 5: I'm thirty look.

1510
01:11:20,960 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 1: That scared the piss out of me. I. I actually

1511
01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:26,400
Speaker 1: started a TikTok page this weekend, and I couldn't believe

1512
01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:28,280
Speaker 1: how many videos there were of me falling out of

1513
01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:28,639
Speaker 1: the chair.

1514
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,040
Speaker 6: I thought, you, Harris, I live TV.

1515
01:11:32,040 --> 01:11:34,160
Speaker 5: I like that TikTok. We got to get in there.

1516
01:11:35,560 --> 01:11:36,880
Speaker 6: Wow, that was something.

1517
01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:41,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, any comploring podcast coming to a TikTok application soon.

1518
01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:48,360
Speaker 1: Ny So, Charles Radkey Chuck Buffalo with a big knockout

1519
01:11:48,360 --> 01:11:50,799
Speaker 1: on the main card and it Tallia Silva by Unanim's

1520
01:11:50,880 --> 01:11:54,560
Speaker 1: decision over vivianni outa uzo. Uh, Chuck Buffalo is a

1521
01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:57,640
Speaker 1: great nickname, a big win for him as underdog. I

1522
01:11:57,720 --> 01:12:01,160
Speaker 1: do caution guys though, when you go bonus chirping, more

1523
01:12:01,200 --> 01:12:03,000
Speaker 1: often than not you don't get it right. Let your

1524
01:12:03,040 --> 01:12:05,640
Speaker 1: action do the talking. But Chuck Buffalo is is on

1525
01:12:05,680 --> 01:12:06,880
Speaker 1: the rise, Raymond, don't you think?

1526
01:12:07,240 --> 01:12:10,160
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, but wait the Buffalo. So no bonus for

1527
01:12:10,200 --> 01:12:10,880
Speaker 5: the Buffalo.

1528
01:12:11,680 --> 01:12:14,400
Speaker 1: No bonus for Chuck Buffalo. Fight of the night was

1529
01:12:14,479 --> 01:12:17,559
Speaker 1: Charles Johnson and Zat Maxim. But I'm probably butchering that

1530
01:12:17,640 --> 01:12:19,560
Speaker 1: name because I did not watch the fight, nor have

1531
01:12:19,680 --> 01:12:22,799
Speaker 1: I ever met that individual or listened to his file.

1532
01:12:23,320 --> 01:12:26,040
Speaker 1: Performance bonus is Randy Rube Boy Brown of course, and

1533
01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:29,080
Speaker 1: meet Paul Molly McCann getting a fifty thousand dollars bonus

1534
01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:29,719
Speaker 1: as well, right.

1535
01:12:30,120 --> 01:12:32,960
Speaker 10: Right, that was so I missed the Molly fight because

1536
01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:35,920
Speaker 10: I had We've been doing fights on Long Islands, right,

1537
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 10: But I saw most of the other fights they saw

1538
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:39,880
Speaker 10: at Randy's obviously.

1539
01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:41,680
Speaker 5: Which was was was.

1540
01:12:42,080 --> 01:12:47,120
Speaker 10: Unbelievable, unbelievable. And I think that that Silva what's her name, what.

1541
01:12:47,160 --> 01:12:47,840
Speaker 6: I tell you silver.

1542
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:51,000
Speaker 5: I think she looks she looks like she's got something.

1543
01:12:51,040 --> 01:12:53,800
Speaker 10: Man, those kids are coming night, and she could move

1544
01:12:54,560 --> 01:12:57,200
Speaker 10: and you know, she gets her hands a little more powerful.

1545
01:12:57,280 --> 01:12:59,680
Speaker 10: She's a problem, but she's got to speak Kenny, and

1546
01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:02,120
Speaker 10: she got the balance when she's moving, she can take

1547
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:02,839
Speaker 10: those kicks.

1548
01:13:02,680 --> 01:13:07,719
Speaker 5: Out of nowhere. She's she's she's a little.

1549
01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:09,439
Speaker 10: Bit of a problem right there, because that girl, the

1550
01:13:09,520 --> 01:13:11,880
Speaker 10: other girl, is very aggressive. But man, when you're reading

1551
01:13:11,920 --> 01:13:14,960
Speaker 10: those front ticks to the chest and the face, it's

1552
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:18,040
Speaker 10: just interruption. And I think it just finally breaks you

1553
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:19,800
Speaker 10: down that that girl looked really good to me.

1554
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:22,840
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think she's really good Ray, And I think

1555
01:13:22,920 --> 01:13:25,160
Speaker 7: that there's very few people man or a woman, who

1556
01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:29,360
Speaker 7: have a style like hers. Yeah, just that alone makes

1557
01:13:29,400 --> 01:13:32,519
Speaker 7: her very unique and very difficult to approach. But man,

1558
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:36,639
Speaker 7: you could strike very exciting, uh. And I'm very interested

1559
01:13:36,720 --> 01:13:39,240
Speaker 7: to see how how she advances her career in the future.

1560
01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:41,320
Speaker 5: I think she's going to do good. She looks like

1561
01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:43,760
Speaker 5: she has has a good mentality, So she looked good.

1562
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:47,240
Speaker 10: She a little got stuck against the cage in the

1563
01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:50,880
Speaker 10: first round book she came out guns blazed, man like, Yeah,

1564
01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:54,280
Speaker 10: you know, it's almost like attitude, like all right, you

1565
01:13:54,439 --> 01:13:56,320
Speaker 10: help now, I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do, you

1566
01:13:56,400 --> 01:13:56,840
Speaker 10: know what I mean?

1567
01:13:56,880 --> 01:13:58,960
Speaker 5: And it was, it was it was nice to watch,

1568
01:14:00,040 --> 01:14:00,320
Speaker 5: all right.

1569
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,479
Speaker 1: A couple more things with Ray long ago before we

1570
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:03,120
Speaker 1: let you fly.

1571
01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:05,400
Speaker 6: Super Bowl? Is this Sunday? Will you be watching?

1572
01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:10,320
Speaker 1: No? See, my question is so concise. You can't even

1573
01:14:10,360 --> 01:14:13,439
Speaker 1: take a sip of the fucking coffee, right, so you

1574
01:14:13,479 --> 01:14:15,240
Speaker 1: will off to the super Bowl? You be training or

1575
01:14:15,320 --> 01:14:17,400
Speaker 1: doing what uh what a lot of martial artists do,

1576
01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:19,479
Speaker 1: which is not watch the NFL. Ken Flow is probably

1577
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:21,240
Speaker 1: going to be watching watch.

1578
01:14:23,600 --> 01:14:24,080
Speaker 3: So uh.

1579
01:14:24,439 --> 01:14:26,720
Speaker 1: And then the only other thing I had on my list, Ray,

1580
01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,760
Speaker 1: So this is the third successive week in which you

1581
01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:32,320
Speaker 1: have joined us from your little private toilet room.

1582
01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:33,080
Speaker 6: Is that accurate?

1583
01:14:37,000 --> 01:14:39,880
Speaker 5: I'm I'm testing out areas to see where we're going

1584
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:40,320
Speaker 5: to put to you.

1585
01:14:41,439 --> 01:14:44,960
Speaker 6: Okay, this is a big decision for me.

1586
01:14:45,240 --> 01:14:47,720
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, this isn't a like a this is

1587
01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:50,040
Speaker 5: a like a portable thing though, right, I don't have

1588
01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:54,000
Speaker 5: to be. I wanted to use one of my kids' bedrooms,

1589
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:57,000
Speaker 5: but that didn't go over big. So I think I'm

1590
01:14:57,000 --> 01:14:59,320
Speaker 5: going to be back into then I'll send the pictures over.

1591
01:14:59,439 --> 01:15:03,240
Speaker 10: But I just want to make sure whatever we end

1592
01:15:03,320 --> 01:15:05,639
Speaker 10: up with, I don't waste anybody's time to be honest

1593
01:15:05,680 --> 01:15:05,840
Speaker 10: with you.

1594
01:15:06,240 --> 01:15:08,240
Speaker 6: And we said we set some duct tape as well

1595
01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:08,800
Speaker 6: for Lucky.

1596
01:15:09,479 --> 01:15:10,120
Speaker 3: Let me tell you so.

1597
01:15:10,360 --> 01:15:16,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, she had pancreat tight so I'm hoping

1598
01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:17,080
Speaker 5: that maybe.

1599
01:15:16,920 --> 01:15:18,000
Speaker 4: That was part of the problem.

1600
01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 10: Okay, we're healing the back.

1601
01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:24,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're not going to off Lucky, right, Lucky stays

1602
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:29,360
Speaker 1: in terms of go ahead, go ahead.

1603
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,439
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was gonna say it's between a podcast and Lucky.

1604
01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:34,080
Speaker 6: Oh, don't do that.

1605
01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:38,400
Speaker 4: We're probably not, probably it.

1606
01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:43,599
Speaker 1: So, but it is your dog, the reason why you're

1607
01:15:43,720 --> 01:15:46,559
Speaker 1: trying to figure out where to locate yourself for this show.

1608
01:15:48,600 --> 01:15:51,000
Speaker 1: So there's no way to like, Oh, I guess you

1609
01:15:51,080 --> 01:15:54,160
Speaker 1: don't live in a warm climate. I mean, is there

1610
01:15:54,200 --> 01:15:58,040
Speaker 1: any way that we could repurpose Lucky outside or maybe

1611
01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:01,240
Speaker 1: take Lucky for a walk? Your appearance is usually twenty minutes, right,

1612
01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:03,000
Speaker 1: how long is a dog walk?

1613
01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:09,800
Speaker 5: She's she's getting old. I can't I can't figure she's

1614
01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:12,519
Speaker 5: doing weird things. I can't figure this net John. If

1615
01:16:12,560 --> 01:16:14,360
Speaker 5: I tell you how many years.

1616
01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:16,200
Speaker 6: Have we been doing the show, almost nine?

1617
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:19,639
Speaker 5: Ray, No, I'm saying for eight and a half years.

1618
01:16:19,760 --> 01:16:22,679
Speaker 5: She sat right next to me for every episode. Wowow,

1619
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,360
Speaker 5: and out of nowhere she starts balling.

1620
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:29,000
Speaker 10: I mean it's crazy every episode, right, that's just sat there.

1621
01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:30,559
Speaker 10: Didn't say your pete.

1622
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:36,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I don't know Tody's dog, Scuba is so

1623
01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:40,760
Speaker 1: but Scuba snores. So we've had to lessen Cody's on

1624
01:16:40,920 --> 01:16:44,400
Speaker 1: air influence because of that. Ray The equipment is on

1625
01:16:44,600 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 1: the way and a lot of our listeners and viewers

1626
01:16:46,920 --> 01:16:48,800
Speaker 1: think it's like a bit that we're trying to keep

1627
01:16:48,920 --> 01:16:52,640
Speaker 1: going that you have audio issues or twisted up headphones.

1628
01:16:52,680 --> 01:16:54,960
Speaker 6: But it's not a bit. Ray's setup is gonna be

1629
01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:56,439
Speaker 6: Uh is going to be impressive.

1630
01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:58,839
Speaker 1: And thanks to Will Berger and Cody Marrown and everybody

Speaker 3: We're good.

1666
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:17,320
Speaker 1: The ufc Apex as a fight venue, right it it

1667
01:18:17,520 --> 01:18:20,360
Speaker 1: makes at least for me as a fan, these events

1668
01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,200
Speaker 1: feel a little bit smaller. I'm not going to say

1669
01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:27,560
Speaker 1: it feels like a regional promotion, but it feels less watchable,

1670
01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:29,120
Speaker 1: it feels less big to me.

1671
01:18:29,400 --> 01:18:30,479
Speaker 6: Is there any of that for you?

1672
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:33,040
Speaker 1: Or are you just such a rabid UFC fan that, uh,

1673
01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:35,640
Speaker 1: you don't care if this is in Cincinnati, Ohio or

1674
01:18:35,680 --> 01:18:38,280
Speaker 1: the UFC Apex Well, I'd rather have.

1675
01:18:38,360 --> 01:18:40,000
Speaker 5: It at the eight Pecks in Cincinnati.

1676
01:18:40,240 --> 01:18:40,439
Speaker 3: Wow.

1677
01:18:40,680 --> 01:18:43,800
Speaker 6: But yeah, you and probably all my broadcast partners, right.

1678
01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:48,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, yeah, yeah you kind of yeah.

1679
01:18:48,840 --> 01:18:50,160
Speaker 3: I don't know, you know what is like?

1680
01:18:50,240 --> 01:18:52,160
Speaker 5: You know, we did the Tough series, so you know

1681
01:18:52,280 --> 01:18:54,040
Speaker 5: you forwarded the house, you know. I don't know.

1682
01:18:54,120 --> 01:18:56,400
Speaker 10: I don't mind those small I don't mind it at all,

1683
01:18:56,479 --> 01:18:57,519
Speaker 10: if that's what you're asking.

1684
01:18:57,920 --> 01:18:58,519
Speaker 4: But I do.

1685
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:01,320
Speaker 5: What I mind is that I do think some of.

1686
01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:05,280
Speaker 10: The fights should have twenty thousand people screaming and let

1687
01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:06,560
Speaker 10: the fighters really get that.

1688
01:19:06,720 --> 01:19:09,640
Speaker 5: That's what I'm gonna say. I don't like about it, right,

1689
01:19:10,200 --> 01:19:12,960
Speaker 5: but it is. It does present like an old.

1690
01:19:12,800 --> 01:19:15,920
Speaker 10: Business atmosphere, which I like, you know, just going and

1691
01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:18,680
Speaker 10: fighting forget about the other bullshit and the TikTok and

1692
01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:22,160
