66
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 1: you going in the water like in the actual ocean?

67
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 1: What's happening?

68
00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 3: Brother? My wife had to work today even though we're

69
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 3: here My wife had to work today, so Daddy did everything.

70
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 3: I put everything in the suv. I unloaded everything. You know.

71
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 3: I bailer was with me, but you know she's a

72
00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 3: little bit limited in mobility and what she can carry.

73
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 3: I set up the tent I put on. I had

74
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 3: to carry the little the cart that has all the

75
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 3: stuff in it. I built five sand castles today. I

76
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 3: had to go snorkily with my daughter and we got

77
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,520
Speaker 3: into the water and did you know, riding the waves

78
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,679
Speaker 3: and boogie boarding. I had a teacher had a boogey board.

79
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:19,560
Speaker 3: You can see. The reason I looked like a rock

80
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 3: lobster is because I've been trying to win Dad of

81
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 3: the Year today. I don't know if I got it,

82
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 3: but I made a good faith effort at it.

83
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: Well done, well done dragging that cart around. What's the

84
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 1: cart's name, Hannah?

85
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 3: What's the joke there?

86
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: Cart to Hannah Club? Sorry, it's a play. I am sorry.

00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,800

97
00:04:57,080 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 1: a technical director, a bong enthusiast. He comes to us

98
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:05,159
Speaker 1: by way of an Australian man's horned up abilities. It

99
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: is Long Island main card limp Mian at Luke Nosita.

100
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,359
Speaker 1: How the hell are you, bro hand?

101
00:05:10,760 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 3: I'm good.

102
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 6: You said no more dad jokes.

103
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,719
Speaker 7: So I thought I wasn't gonna get the old horned

104
00:05:14,760 --> 00:05:16,120
Speaker 7: up balls the intro there.

105
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: But guys, another APEX card this weekend. I'm hyped for it.

106
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:19,839
Speaker 3: How about you?

107
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 1: I'm pretty hype. Actually, I'm pretty hip for that Damn

108
00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,440
Speaker 1: Mayne event. I'm all fluffed up over here. What do

109
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: you guys think? Or what about you? Lt What do

110
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: you think this WWE on ESPN News means for UFC.

111
00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be honest here for just a second. I

112
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 3: guess I just don't totally understand the significance of the

113
00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 3: ESPN ww E News. Can you break it down for me?

114
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:44,400
Speaker 7: Like?

115
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 3: Why why is it so important?

116
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 1: Well, they're getting essentially upwards of three times the amount

117
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,640
Speaker 1: of money they were getting from Peacock NBC for their

118
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 1: pl e s, which is their you know, once a

119
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,840
Speaker 1: month pay per views. And I just believe that, uh

120
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 1: in some way. I mean, look, it's it's a continuation

121
00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: of TKO just spreading their tentacles across combat sports on

122
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,039
Speaker 1: basically every single network. And there are a lot of

123
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: people that believe that this sets the stage, without question

124
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: for UFC to come back on ESPN. So still a

125
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: lot of people in boxing and MMA are waiting to

126
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: see where the UFC goes so then they can figure

127
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,680
Speaker 1: it out. But it was surprising that that this WWE

128
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,000
Speaker 1: deal stuck it, you know, snuck in there before it.

129
00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,160
Speaker 1: But uh, whatever kind of interesting stuff right there.

130
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:34,960
Speaker 3: So, I mean, the the everything I've heard, everything that

131
00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:37,920
Speaker 3: you have read that is public has kind of indicated

132
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:42,360
Speaker 3: that we're going to get some sort of Netflix ESPN split,

133
00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 3: with ESPN carrying the bulk of the inventory, not the

134
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 3: exclusive amount of the bulk of it. And I don't

135
00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 3: I mean, I realized that they're you know, zach Arni

136
00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 3: or the MMA draw has kind of intimated that maybe

137
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,479
Speaker 3: Paramount might be in the mix as like a late addition.

138
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 3: My feeling is that they're being included BC, probably to

139
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 3: drive up the price a little bit. Maybe ZUFA Boxing

140
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 3: ends up on there, but I think it's gonna be

141
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 3: what we always have been expecting, some combination of Netflix

142
00:07:07,600 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 3: and ESPN for UFC.

143
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:14,920
Speaker 1: Gone are the ANGRYBC columns from cbssports dot com against

144
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:17,239
Speaker 1: d Yeah, yeah.

174
00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:31,240
Speaker 1: This Saturday, the warehouse in Las Vegas known as the

175
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:34,000
Speaker 1: ufc Apex will be back. We have a much better

176
00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:37,320
Speaker 1: card than last week, however, and a middleweight man event

177
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,040
Speaker 1: that I feel like you need to see a pair

178
00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:42,239
Speaker 1: of streaking one to eighty five ers will headline Saturday's

179
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 1: card as thirty seven year old Roman Delize puts his

180
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:48,160
Speaker 1: three fight win streak to the test against a thirty

181
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: one year old Anthony Fluffy Hernandez, who has won seven

182
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:56,480
Speaker 1: consecutive fights, including most recently against longtime rival Brendan Allen,

183
00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 1: In a matchup between the number ten and number nine

184
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: wits in this which with the lead day being number nine. Luke,

185
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: what is the most intriguing aspect of this matchup stylistically,

186
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,920
Speaker 1: as these two look to make a leap at least

187
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:14,600
Speaker 1: for the winner close to this top five at one

188
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: eight five.

189
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 3: It's gotta be well, I mean, it doesn't have to be.

190
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 3: My feeling is that the ground game here is really

191
00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 3: the most interesting component to this fight in terms of

192
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 3: the style matchup. Now, there's other stakes that are involved

193
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 3: that actually make this fight kind of interesting, actually pretty interesting,

194
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 3: you know. Again, one of these questions is like, is

195
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 3: this a suitable main event for a UFC card? Does

196
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 3: it make sense for the apex putting those considerations aside,

197
00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 3: and just for the present moment, are there interesting stakes

198
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,560
Speaker 3: in this spout, no question about it. And in terms

199
00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 3: of the style matchup itself, BC, I really think if

200
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:51,840
Speaker 3: you just look at Anthony Hernandez, Fluffy Hernandez and the

201
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:54,439
Speaker 3: way in which his career has gone more recently, it's

202
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 3: extremely impressive, but he doesn't get the job done typically

203
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 3: until the third round or later. Dalize has beaten better

204
00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,320
Speaker 3: guys and has better experience, and in fact, they both

205
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 3: have a common opponent in Kevin Holland and Kevin Holland

206
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty beat Anthony Hernandez. Meanwhile, Roman Dalize just

207
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,400
Speaker 3: ran over him. So something to be said for like

208
00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:18,800
Speaker 3: how much Anthony Hernandez's career started in a somewhat unheralded

209
00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,880
Speaker 3: way and now he's in a very different position. But

210
00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 3: in terms of the fight itself, to me, it's gonna

211
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 3: be I think Roman Dealidze has good takedowns, good takedown defense.

212
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 3: He's got crafty submissions, and Anthony Hernandez he puts a

213
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 3: pace on you, but it takes a while before the

214
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 3: water starts boiling. It's not like, you know, not everyone

215
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 3: can be hams Out Jamiah. But the point I'm trying

216
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 3: to make is hams Out to Jamia from the word

217
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 3: go is shot out of a cannon. That's really not

218
00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 3: the case with a guy like Anthony Hernandez. He takes

219
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,760
Speaker 3: a little bit of time, and so to me, the

220
00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:52,840
Speaker 3: question is bc that third round demarcation line, what happens

221
00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:55,560
Speaker 3: after that? It's not like Dalidse is some kind of

222
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 3: guy who fades down the stretch.

223
00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: He used to be and he used to be a

224
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:01,760
Speaker 1: yeah that didn't have the most.

225
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,440
Speaker 3: Personal so yes, yes, but I think more recently that's

226
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 3: really not exactly been the case now, Is he as

227
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,080
Speaker 3: potent in round five as round one? No? And I

228
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 3: think that's kind of the difference because Hernandez is on

229
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 3: you like White on rice in round numbers four and five,

230
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 3: even round three up to that point. And so it

231
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 3: becomes a really interesting test. What does the leads they

232
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 3: have left, given what I think for Hernandez is going

233
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:29,080
Speaker 3: to put on him as the fight goes along. However,

234
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,880
Speaker 3: does the leads put enough on him early on such

235
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,440
Speaker 3: that a he can't win enough rounds or he's so

236
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:38,400
Speaker 3: beaten down and demolished that even if he manages to

237
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,400
Speaker 3: rally to some extent, it's just not enough.

238
00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 1: I have to agree with you right there. They've both

239
00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 1: gone five rounds, two times each. For Anthony Hernandez, that

240
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 1: was his first meeting with Brendan Allen on the regional

241
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: scene and two fights ago a TKO victory in that

242
00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 1: fifth round against Michelle Padeda Ainco the full five, but

243
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,280
Speaker 1: he came close. And for Roman Deledze it was his

244
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: majority decision loss to naserdine Imovov in twenty twenty four,

245
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:06,040
Speaker 1: and most recently March of this year, when he took

246
00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: a five round decision from Marvin Vittori in their rematch.

247
00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:13,079
Speaker 1: You did mention Vittori's got better experience, He's beaten better guys,

248
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 1: even if his win streak isn't as long. I don't

249
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 1: know if I'm as worried about him being thirty seven.

250
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,320
Speaker 1: He's kind of sort of coming to his into his

251
00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,960
Speaker 1: own of late in this three fight win streak. But

252
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,040
Speaker 1: despite establishing that with the Lids having better experience and

253
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,840
Speaker 1: better wins, he's a plus two point fifty underdog according

254
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:35,880
Speaker 1: to DraftKings, where Anthony Hernandez minus three ten. Uh luke?

255
00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 1: Does that make sense to you given the streaks they're

256
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,000
Speaker 1: both on coming into here?

257
00:12:41,320 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 3: If you just look at like who they beat, and

258
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 3: if I ask to you know, list, you know, for example,

259
00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:49,520
Speaker 3: give me their three best wins from either guy, you

260
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:51,480
Speaker 3: might be like, well, I don't really get the odds

261
00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,760
Speaker 3: on this one, and I'm with you. B see the

262
00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,200
Speaker 3: fact that Delise is what at thirty six? Thirty seven? Again?

263
00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:56,480
Speaker 1: Whatever?

264
00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 3: Seven? Yeah, thirty seven. I don't see that as necessary

265
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,320
Speaker 3: disqualifying in ways that you might in other cases, especially

266
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 3: because it's middleweight and you know, we're not dealing with

267
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 3: a championship fight here. However, fluffy to me, the whole

268
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 3: story is fluffy Hernandez, right, that's the story here. The

269
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 3: story is this guy was good to start, but limited

270
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 3: and somewhat under the radar, and he has slowly put

271
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,640
Speaker 3: together not just a kind of impressive win streak, but

272
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,240
Speaker 3: his game has come together. I think that, to me

273
00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 3: is the interesting thing. It's not a guy who you know,

274
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 3: has gotten a little bit better, He's gotten a lot better.

275
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 3: He had the pieces of the game before, but they've

276
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 3: gelled now. It's like it's become a more cohesive call.

277
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:44,800
Speaker 3: Like he understands how to fight for himself. He understands

278
00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 3: what makes sense for him and has leaned into it heavy.

279
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 3: And honestly, I think he's a bad matchup for just

280
00:13:50,679 --> 00:13:53,720
Speaker 3: for all I'm not gonna say every middleweight, but you know,

281
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 3: he's a tough out at a bare minimum for every middleweight.

282
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 3: And I think he's a bad matchup for many of

283
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 3: the top fifteen and even the top ten, certainly potentially

284
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,640
Speaker 3: even in the top five as well. I think that's

285
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 3: the kind of thing. He has rounded a corner in

286
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,280
Speaker 3: a way that you know, I think Delieds has rounded

287
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 3: his own corner maybe a year or so ago year

288
00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,920
Speaker 3: or two ago, or at a bare minimum, the last

289
00:14:14,920 --> 00:14:17,520
Speaker 3: three fights have been something of a redemption arc anyway,

290
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,160
Speaker 3: but that's not the same as what Hernandez has done.

291
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 3: Hernandez keeps impressing you, even when I know more recently

292
00:14:23,640 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 3: he had about obviously the I think it was the

293
00:14:25,840 --> 00:14:29,280
Speaker 3: last about where he was on antibiotics and he kind

294
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 3: of looked like shit early, and it took him a

295
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 3: little while to get going, you know, and then you know,

296
00:14:33,400 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 3: he didn't look necessarily like himself, and he still got

297
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 3: the job done. I mean, this is the point I'm making.

298
00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 3: If this guy is healthy, I really believe BC. I'm

299
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 3: a lot of times I get on here and I'm like,

300
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 3: this guy's gonna fight for a title. I don't know

301
00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:48,600
Speaker 3: if Hernandez is gonna fight for a title, but I

302
00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,200
Speaker 3: will say this, I would not be the least bit

303
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:54,280
Speaker 3: surprised A if this is his best win, and B

304
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 3: he does fight for a title at some point in

305
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 3: twenty twenty six or twenty twenty seven.

306
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,600
Speaker 1: That is interesting. Even though he's the beat, he is

307
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:04,040
Speaker 1: the betting favorite. Fluffy Hernandez. I agree with you that

308
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 1: that this fight, the story of this fight centers a

309
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 1: little bit more around him, although when I look at

310
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:11,160
Speaker 1: this fight, the story kind of centers around Cheyenne to me.

311
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: But that's another topic for another day. Hopefully Roman's not

312
00:15:14,840 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 1: watching Luke. I do remember, however, and maybe the answer

313
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,360
Speaker 1: is the antibiotics. I remember when he did have last

314
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: time out Fluffy, the rematch with Brendan Allen, that while

315
00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,360
Speaker 1: we gave him praise for the win, there was this

316
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 1: feeling like maybe he's lacking a little bit extra oo

317
00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,680
Speaker 1: to be a finisher in this division.

318
00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:37,280
Speaker 3: Again, yes, that is real, and in fact I was

319
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,960
Speaker 3: a little bit down on him before I learned that

320
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:44,160
Speaker 3: antibiotics had really hurt him. Sure, so let me say this.

321
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:50,360
Speaker 3: He does have He's not a natural finisher. He's not

322
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:54,280
Speaker 3: a natural finisher. He's not like Habib, who everything he

323
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: did was to try and funnel you into a fight

324
00:15:57,120 --> 00:16:01,200
Speaker 3: ending scenario. To me, what Fluffy does is just try

325
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 3: and it's almost like a little bit like what Morob does.

326
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:07,600
Speaker 3: I think, you know, a middleweight version of it, a

327
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 3: slightly different version of it where it's just labor, and

328
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 3: that labor he tends to ramp it up a little

329
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:15,960
Speaker 3: bit more, I think, relative to what Morob does, which

330
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 3: is why he does get some finishes, you know, you know,

331
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 3: relatively speaking a little bit more regularly. But yes, it's

332
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,560
Speaker 3: a fair criticism. He's not a dynamic or even natural finisher.

333
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 3: And the game he's put together can sometimes lead to

334
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 3: a finish, that's true, but it doesn't funnel the game

335
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 3: in that particular direction. And that could be something against

336
00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 3: a guy like Delids, who's got wins at two oh five,

337
00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,000
Speaker 3: and it is big and strong, and again, as we mentioned,

338
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 3: a veteran, beaten, bitter guys in Fluffy Hernandez is beaten

339
00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:42,200
Speaker 3: at a bare minimum and very very strong for the

340
00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 3: weight class. We'll see how that manifests itself on Saturday.

341
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, deleeds as strong as an ox, mean all those things.

342
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,320
Speaker 1: Speaking of Fluffy, he sat down with Mike Bone of

343
00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 1: MMA Junkie Fame and they talked about this, the fact

344
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 1: that a victory here would give Fluffy eight consecutive and

345
00:16:58,000 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 1: no UFC middleweight has ever won and not gone directly

346
00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 1: into a title fight. Afterwards, let's listen in much more work.

347
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:06,800
Speaker 8: Do you think you really have to do? Because I

348
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,199
Speaker 8: was just looking at the longest winning streaks that have

349
00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,399
Speaker 8: ever happened in the middleweight division, and no one has

350
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 8: had to win more than eight in a row before

351
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,640
Speaker 8: getting a title shot, So if you have to fight

352
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,840
Speaker 8: one more after this, it would be unprecedented.

353
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:19,320
Speaker 3: Oh for sure.

354
00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 9: But I mean I'm ready for whatever, you know what

355
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 9: I mean. This game is crazy and I never you

356
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 9: never like know what to expect in this fucking this world,

357
00:17:26,840 --> 00:17:28,199
Speaker 9: you know what I mean, someone can get hurt and

358
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:29,119
Speaker 9: you get called tomorrow.

359
00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 3: So fuck who knows?

360
00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 8: The comments are? You know, Fluffy Fluffy like he's the

361
00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:35,280
Speaker 8: dark horse, He's the most underrated guy.

362
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:36,720
Speaker 1: He's gonna get that belt.

363
00:17:36,760 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 8: Do you feel like, at least from like the fans

364
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,000
Speaker 8: all that type of stuff, people are recognizing what you're

365
00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,640
Speaker 8: capable of than what you're doing out there.

366
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,960
Speaker 9: No, for sure, the fans have been fucking like I've

367
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 9: been seeing the same shit online getting tagged and stuff,

368
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 9: and like you're the dark horse, and I hope that

369
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 9: like a lot of people have been pissed that I'm

370
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:53,199
Speaker 9: at the apex even, you know what I mean, Like

371
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,919
Speaker 9: they're like, no, fuck that I wanted to go see it,

372
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,880
Speaker 9: which is a fucking blessing because like now the fans

373
00:17:57,920 --> 00:18:00,280
Speaker 9: are actually starting to get behind me and they really see,

374
00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 9: like the true people that know martial arts, they know

375
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,200
Speaker 9: that I know my shit. I mean, so it's like whatever,

376
00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:07,680
Speaker 9: it'll it'll all work out soon.

377
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:11,440
Speaker 1: It's a good attitude. But I do feel like even

378
00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:13,679
Speaker 1: with an aate consecutive victory, he'll still be on the

379
00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: outside looking in, considering title fight's going to be next

380
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:20,480
Speaker 1: week in Chicago. And then we got that Kyle Barhaalio

381
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: fight against naserdine Imovov, who is very underrated and deserving here.

382
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: And when you look at that top ten, we've also

383
00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:31,840
Speaker 1: got some other big name players. You know, Sean Strickland's

384
00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: trying to get back into a big, big fight. R

385
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: DR absolutely on fire and knocking at the door. Luke,

386
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 1: even if you could imagine a scenario where let's say

387
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: Fluffy ran through him, gas the leads out, submitted him,

388
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,400
Speaker 1: is there any chance he could get that call next

389
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:46,920
Speaker 1: in your eyes?

390
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:50,720
Speaker 3: No, no, I mean the reasons you articulated would make

391
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:56,840
Speaker 3: that impossible. Also, like Fluffy is something of a hardcore

392
00:18:56,960 --> 00:19:00,919
Speaker 3: fans delight, right if you want a show, I mean,

393
00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:03,800
Speaker 3: this is you know. The interesting question is like how

394
00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,840
Speaker 3: many okay, so of eight is the most under the

395
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,359
Speaker 3: way which bond had put that together for a title shot.

396
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 3: You know, what does it say that Fluffy might go

397
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 3: well past that? It could be ten eleven or twelve. Right,

398
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 3: let's just sort of imagine what does that say. And

399
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,480
Speaker 3: the second part, you're just dealing with a different kind

400
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:23,240
Speaker 3: of the tiered structure of the UFC product now where

401
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,400
Speaker 3: you've got you know, pay per views on the road,

402
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,600
Speaker 3: fight nights essentially, and then these Apex shows. And then

403
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 3: even so not all, not all of the APEX shows

404
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 3: are even really created equal it requires and I know

405
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,399
Speaker 3: Fluffy's fought on like not just Apex shows, but I'm

406
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,200
Speaker 3: simply saying, here's one of his bigger ones. It's at

407
00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:43,040
Speaker 3: the Apex. Granted it's the main event, but he hasn't

408
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 3: built a following, he hasn't built a name, he hasn't

409
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 3: built frankly, even much of an identity. Like you just

410
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:53,000
Speaker 3: you don't see a lot of Anthony Hernandez interviews that

411
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,760
Speaker 3: are out there, Like these factors all kind of play

412
00:19:56,840 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 3: a role here in like who's going to get the jump?

413
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,640
Speaker 3: They're you know, an opportunity to rise. And I don't

414
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:05,480
Speaker 3: get me wrong, like I'm excited for this fight, and

415
00:20:05,520 --> 00:20:08,200
Speaker 3: I think his story is one of the more remarkable ones. Actually, again,

416
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 3: I've been saying it like this dude is really putting

417
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 3: together something special, but he has not cobbled together momentum

418
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 3: in the broader sense on paper and then for insiders, yes,

419
00:20:19,800 --> 00:20:21,880
Speaker 3: but that is not enough to get the call up

420
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 3: short of like you know, I don't know, some kind

421
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 3: of disaster striking if he's the only guy left right.

422
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, on the flip side, DELIZI, he's got a lot

423
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:32,199
Speaker 1: of momentum with the broads. But let's talk about his

424
00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 1: fighting game seven and two over his last nine in

425
00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: the last four years. And if you look at the

426
00:20:37,840 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 1: two losses, a decision lost to Marvin Bettori two years

427
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: ago that he avenged in his last fight, and then

428
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 1: a majority decision loss to a Nacardina Imavov, who, like

429
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,439
Speaker 1: we said, is knocking on the door of a title shot.

430
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: In between that stoppages by Tkover, Kevin Holland, Jack Hermanson,

431
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 1: Phil Hawes, Kyle Dawkas. So we got a punt respect

432
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:01,119
Speaker 1: on the resume of Roman A LEDs from some of

433
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,880
Speaker 1: the names he's beaten decision wins over victory and Anthony

434
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,640
Speaker 1: Smith Luke. We talk about the leads. We're gonna talk

435
00:21:07,680 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: about the power. We're gonna talk about the fact that

436
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 1: he fights like a warrior. I mean he walks in

437
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:15,640
Speaker 1: with with that fur hat and shoulder pads looking thing

438
00:21:15,680 --> 00:21:18,520
Speaker 1: on like a dead animal that he killed himself. Do

439
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 1: you believe, though, that he's got some elements to his

440
00:21:21,040 --> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: ground game that are underrated calf slicers in part?

441
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean the calf slicer is interesting, but I

442
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:34,040
Speaker 3: would say that he has It's a good question. Let

443
00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,920
Speaker 3: me think that through for just a second. I would

444
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:41,040
Speaker 3: say that he's got a black belt level game for

445
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:50,960
Speaker 3: MMA for MMA, and I think he's got underrated ability

446
00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:57,400
Speaker 3: to capture and hold position to facilitate ground and pound, right,

447
00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,679
Speaker 3: So like, in other words, contrast that with Patty Pimblin. Now,

448
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:02,359
Speaker 3: I know he beat the fuck out of Michael Chandler,

449
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,600
Speaker 3: but a lot of times he'll get the back and

450
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 3: then there's not necessarily it's underground and pound that happens after.

451
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 3: Delise's a little different, right, dalis is a He's got

452
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 3: the kind of positional attainment and maintenance that facilitates ground

453
00:22:17,880 --> 00:22:19,680
Speaker 3: and pound, and I think that makes him very dangerous.

454
00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:22,440
Speaker 3: Right again, Fluffy bit of a slow starter, a bit

455
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 3: of a slow starter against the guy like Delis, who's powerful,

456
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 3: who has good takedowns, and then can capture good, strong

457
00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:33,320
Speaker 3: positions from which to deliver punishment. You know, he can

458
00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:35,640
Speaker 3: really set himself up here to at a bare minimum,

459
00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,080
Speaker 3: get out, get out to a nice lead. I think

460
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 3: that's the way I would imagine his ground game. Now

461
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,840
Speaker 3: you point out the cap slicer, which is interesting. I'm

462
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 3: not here to diminish his submission threat. But to me,

463
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 3: that's not really what makes his ground game shine. It's

464
00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 3: a nice little addition to his resume, but I don't

465
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 3: think it's the thing that is what he's like most

466
00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 3: potent for. To me, it's his ground and pound, and

467
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 3: I think that really is, you know, the work of

468
00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 3: his strength.

469
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:05,359
Speaker 1: It's the ahead of this fight. He had cameras falling

470
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 1: him around in his native Georgia as he was like

471
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 1: rock climbing at night and hiking on like slippery, slippery areas.

472
00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,359
Speaker 1: He's certainly a man of principle. We remember seeing that

473
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,280
Speaker 1: video that we showed when he was hiking in Georgia.

474
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: I remember when he found that soda bottle that was

475
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: cut in half. Luke that was probably used to get high,

476
00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:26,280
Speaker 1: and he gave that editorial against your beloved marijuana. Do

477
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:26,760
Speaker 1: you remember that?

478
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I didn't listen because I love marijuana.

479
00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I also love Roman Deli Day's part of

480
00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 1: this Georgian revolution. Well, Roman sat down ahead of this

481
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 1: fight with Home of Fight, and the topic of weed

482
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,160
Speaker 1: came up once more, this time centering around the old flufster.

483
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 6: I like to meet peoples who are not talking too

484
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 6: much and have convision of life. And he's one of

485
00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,520
Speaker 6: dead guys in he have some stuff I don't like

486
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 6: in his life. But still, you know, we all have

487
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:04,639
Speaker 6: something strange in us.

488
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,160
Speaker 3: We are. You're talking about the smoking.

489
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:10,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, because I don't don't smoke and never smoking. Also,

490
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,560
Speaker 6: I'm against all. In my country where I'm from, this

491
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:17,159
Speaker 6: consider is drug. You know, it's stifferent. That's why in

492
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:20,640
Speaker 6: America that's normal. For he's not doing nothing bed but

493
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,840
Speaker 6: for me how I was raised is not normally, but

494
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 6: it's free contruct as we see.

495
00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: Long Island. Look, does that turn you off at all?

496
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:31,480
Speaker 5: Yeah?

497
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,240
Speaker 7: New least favorite fighter.

498
00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,159
Speaker 1: There you go. All right, Look, let's talk about what

499
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: we're actually going to see here. Huge fight for both

500
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 1: The winner could considering there's a few big names in

501
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,160
Speaker 1: this division that are on the calmdown right now out

502
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: of Sonia, Whittaker, et cetera, could get a launch into

503
00:24:50,119 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: the top five ultimately, especially if this goes twenty five minutes.

504
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 1: What are we looking at here? Who gets their hand raised?

505
00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go Fluffy her Nandez. I mean, I know

506
00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 3: I'm taking big time. I'm chalk here and so long

507
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:03,480
Speaker 3: is Lucas Pope trying to find some betting value in

508
00:25:03,800 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 3: a different direction. But you know, listen, I respect aleds A.

509
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 3: I think that he is not some chump. He's a

510
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,560
Speaker 3: good fighter, he's experienced. As I mentioned, there are certain

511
00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 3: dimensions where he can be quite terrifying. Uh And there

512
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,080
Speaker 3: are questions about, you know what, what is the what

513
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:19,800
Speaker 3: is that? This is the this is the reality BC.

514
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 3: We kind of know what the full upside is of Roman.

515
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 3: I don't really know that what it is for Fluffy,

516
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:28,560
Speaker 3: We've seen some some interesting development, but we've actually not

517
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,479
Speaker 3: seen what it looks like. And I have a feeling

518
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:33,199
Speaker 3: that it might be higher than some realize. And for

519
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:34,760
Speaker 3: that reason, I think we're going to get a glimpse

520
00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:37,280
Speaker 3: of that. And uh so give me no stoppage, I

521
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,880
Speaker 3: don't think, although it's you know it's possible. I'm but

522
00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 3: my official production BC give me Fluffy Hernandez by decision.

523
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:44,119
Speaker 3: That's what I like.

524
00:25:44,440 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I gotta go the same way if I'm putting

525
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: a bet to it. Kind of cheering for Roman Deledze here,

526
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,480
Speaker 1: I was like, what he brings to this division? Tough man,

527
00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,320
Speaker 1: tough out, big punch in both hands, long isand look

528
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:57,480
Speaker 1: from a betting angle if you will, where are you

529
00:25:57,600 --> 00:25:59,840
Speaker 1: leaning ahead of this? On the main card minute podcast?

530
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 7: So I took Fluffy money line in a parlay. But

531
00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 7: if you're just looking for a single to take you

532
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:08,040
Speaker 7: guys both just mentioned Fluffy by Decisions plus one eighty

533
00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 7: five on DraftKings right now?

534
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:10,200
Speaker 1: Not bad bad?

535
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,120
Speaker 7: Do you over under said it three and a half,

536
00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:13,600
Speaker 7: So even if you just took the over four and

537
00:26:13,640 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 7: a half, that'll be plus money as well.

538
00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: Delize has never been finished before.

539
00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:19,280
Speaker 7: I kind of think this one goes long as well.

540
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 1: So I agree, I really like a finish here unless

541
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,119
Speaker 1: there's something freaky like a cut or something that gets

542
00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:26,919
Speaker 1: in the way. Let's go to this co main event

543
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 1: in I wrote down Banham Whites, is that right or wrong?

544
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: Let me see here. Yeah, we're gonna go banda wet.

545
00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 1: Did Steve ver Seg move up here? What's going on, Luke?

546
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,960
Speaker 7: No, it's because the fight was on late notice because

547
00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,159
Speaker 7: he was supposed to fight Youngsung Park, so Ode had

548
00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 7: to take it on late notice.

549
00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 1: Where would we be without long Island, Luke? Steve Erseag,

550
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: former UFC title challenger who was speed tracked to that

551
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 1: after three consecutive wins, even though he was that close

552
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:56,440
Speaker 1: to beating Pantosio. Maybe a strategic decision better in round

553
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 1: five would have given him that. Well, now he's lost

554
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,080
Speaker 1: three in a row. Well, yet is a minus five

555
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:06,960
Speaker 1: to seventy five betting favorite against Odai Osborne plus four

556
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 1: twenty five. Is there still time in your eyes, Lt,

557
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 1: for Steve Ersag to right the ship. Three losses all

558
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 1: against the league competition, but it was up high and

559
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,960
Speaker 1: down low for this guy. Does it make sense for

560
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,560
Speaker 1: him to be almost a six to one favorite despite

561
00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:25,080
Speaker 1: this streak?

562
00:27:25,640 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's much better than Odia Osborne, or at least

563
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:32,960
Speaker 3: he should be. Right, I'd be surprised if he lost

564
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 3: this one. You know, I wanted to fucking strangle him

565
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,520
Speaker 3: through my screen when he shot for that takedown and

566
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:40,840
Speaker 3: round five against Ben Can you believe he could have

567
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,159
Speaker 3: beaten fucking Pantoja if he had not said for that?

568
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,400
Speaker 3: It's it is like just seeing what Pantoja has done

569
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,560
Speaker 3: since then, and you're like, dude, you could have disrupted

570
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 3: all of that without if you just have not made

571
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,320
Speaker 3: a poor decision. But he made a fucking poor decision

572
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 3: and you know Pantoja didn't, so you know, look at

573
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 3: the difference. So that killed me. The kaikr of France won.

574
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 3: What can I say about that one? He just I don't,

575
00:28:06,880 --> 00:28:08,679
Speaker 3: I don't know. He wasn't he wasn't.

576
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:16,960
Speaker 1: I know what to say, Luke, what do you say?

577
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 3: You do you do it? Are you being are you well,

578
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:21,920
Speaker 3: I don't know if you're being racist or.

579
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,000
Speaker 1: Now you're just that's a tribute to the mayor I said.

580
00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 3: I didn't say you're being racist. I just said you're

581
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 3: being dumb.

582
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 1: This was racist by accident. That is not.

583
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:32,639
Speaker 3: Fair enough, fair enough. But the point is, like you know,

584
00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:37,800
Speaker 3: faces notwithstanding kay Car, France is a devastating striker for

585
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 3: a lot of guys, and you saw have evidence of

586
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:41,440
Speaker 3: that and then the moreno fight. To your point, you

587
00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:46,360
Speaker 3: see that's an I mean it was champion, title, challenger,

588
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 3: champion that he had to go through and he came

589
00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 3: up short. On one level, You're like, oh, okay, well

590
00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:54,959
Speaker 3: he got fast tracked there beating you know, Matt Schnell,

591
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 3: and he just wasn't ready for it and he had

592
00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:59,440
Speaker 3: to kind of come back down to earth. But I'm

593
00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,200
Speaker 3: not really to dump him. I think he had when

594
00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:04,520
Speaker 3: I interviewed me, had insights about the game that we're smart.

595
00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 3: He sits behind the jab when he makes good decisions.

596
00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:10,400
Speaker 3: And by the way, remember that was a five round fight.

597
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 3: This will be just a three. You know, he's he's

598
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,840
Speaker 3: shown much better ability than Odi Osborne PC. I'm not

599
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,240
Speaker 3: trying to be a dickish is the reality? Yeah, However,

600
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 3: you know you lose three in a row, what does

601
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,000
Speaker 3: that do to your confidence? What is that due to

602
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:25,440
Speaker 3: your ability to pull the trigger? What does that do

603
00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,920
Speaker 3: to your ability to believe that you can win? And

604
00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:31,640
Speaker 3: also coming all the way from motherfucking Perth to Las Vegas,

605
00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 3: you know what does that kind of travel do for

606
00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,080
Speaker 3: you as well? So he should win this one, but

607
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 3: you know, maybe it gets interesting.

608
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,400
Speaker 1: And as long Island mentioned the late opponent switch when

609
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 1: Hung Young how do we.

610
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 3: Say that Park Young Sung Park?

611
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 1: I believe Young Sung Park, Thank you, trying to be

612
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,040
Speaker 1: good on this lose odiay Osbourne thirty three out of Jamaica.

613
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:54,280
Speaker 1: He's lost four of his last six, three of those

614
00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 1: by stoppage, but he's coming fresh off in April of

615
00:29:58,120 --> 00:30:01,800
Speaker 1: this year, a second round tk O victory against Lewis

616
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,240
Speaker 1: Garooley without a Wikipedia page.

617
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, Garole is actually a pretty good fighter, not great,

618
00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 3: but good and you know, so you can judge that accordingly,

619
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:14,480
Speaker 3: he's not a bad fighter at all.

620
00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:19,160
Speaker 1: All right, that's stopped the streak of three consecutive defeats. Uh,

621
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:21,480
Speaker 1: Steve ver Seg did sit down with the boner. So

622
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,960
Speaker 1: let's talk about this three fight losing skid. Here's Mike

623
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,400
Speaker 1: Bond I've ever made junkie.

624
00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 8: How do you even digest what's happened over the past

625
00:30:28,720 --> 00:30:30,640
Speaker 8: three fights. I mean, like, it's the best guys in

626
00:30:30,640 --> 00:30:32,920
Speaker 8: the world. It's a title fight. Like zero sham losing

627
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 8: to any of these people. But of course, you know,

628
00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 8: you never want these things to come together in consecutive fights.

629
00:30:37,800 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean it's hard because if you lose, like

630
00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,760
Speaker 5: the guys I've lost to all like the best guys

631
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 5: in the world. So it's like you go, oh, well,

632
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,440
Speaker 5: that's like a caveat to losing. But at the same time,

633
00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 5: it's like losing still losing. And if you lose six

634
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 5: in a row, but they're also the top six guys,

635
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 5: like you still six in a row. So I know

636
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 5: that at some point I have to go from competing

637
00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 5: with the best guys in the world to being the

638
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:08,880
Speaker 5: best guys in the world.

639
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:09,680
Speaker 3: And I'm doing.

640
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 5: Everything I can to make sure I will and can

641
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:15,959
Speaker 5: do that. Yeah, as far as mental, as far as

642
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,160
Speaker 5: uh training, I'm trying to like make the adjustments everywhere

643
00:31:20,160 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 5: I can and try to build on the things that

644
00:31:22,680 --> 00:31:26,520
Speaker 5: are working as well. I really do think I can

645
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,400
Speaker 5: be a world champion. I'm just gonna it's gonna make

646
00:31:30,440 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 5: it all click.

647
00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:35,280
Speaker 1: I guess, well done. Mike U currently ursag ranked number

648
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:37,960
Speaker 1: ten out one hundred and twenty five pounds. Osborne is

649
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:42,320
Speaker 1: unranked and not riding a train luckily or not being

650
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:43,760
Speaker 1: run on by Oh my.

651
00:31:43,720 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 3: God, I want to be I want to be clear

652
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 3: that when I was in the Marine Corps and they

653
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 3: offered to me to allegedly run a train on a

654
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 3: person named Osborne. A. It was a female and be

655
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:57,000
Speaker 3: she was heinous but did not look like Odaie Osborne.

656
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,400
Speaker 1: Okay, wow, wow, we just got canceled. We're lucky, of course,

657
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:05,200
Speaker 1: have a betting expert as a technical director, but he's

658
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: also an AUSSI MMA expert. Do has it broken your heart,

659
00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 1: Luke Nosita to see Steve Correll ersag on this streak

660
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,800
Speaker 1: when he was a bright spot in AUSSI MMA.

661
00:32:16,400 --> 00:32:18,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, but like you guys mentioned, it came to literally

662
00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 7: the current champion, the former champion, and the most recent

663
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,840
Speaker 7: title challenger. He's losing to literally the best guys in

664
00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 7: the division.

665
00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:26,480
Speaker 1: If you want to get nitpicky with the.

666
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:29,880
Speaker 7: Stats here, Ersa's got a better striking accuracy, better striking defense,

667
00:32:29,960 --> 00:32:34,120
Speaker 7: lansmore strikes per minute, and Odie's got a negative striking differential.

668
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,760
Speaker 1: So I feel like this is Steve's think. Yeah, he's

669
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 1: been calling all weeks.

670
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,480
Speaker 7: Sub Just want to say Steve by sub plus one

671
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,520
Speaker 7: eighty five. Half of his wins have come by sub

672
00:32:42,560 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 7: Odey's been subbed four times before.

673
00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:48,040
Speaker 1: So interest question regarding your father, I only say this

674
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,160
Speaker 1: because we know my father. The only thing he knows

675
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 1: about MMA is Dakota Ditcheva, and I have to report

676
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:55,960
Speaker 1: that yesterday I was going for a run and I

677
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,440
Speaker 1: ran by my neighbor, Handy Dan's house. He's like sixty three.

678
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 1: He goes, hey, Broy, how's my girl doing? You know, Dakota,

679
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:07,480
Speaker 1: And I'm just like, what is happening in my life

680
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,920
Speaker 1: right now? Like that's the only guy he knows too?

681
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 1: Is your well, come back? Don't leave me? Here is

682
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 1: your dad feeling this seg losing streak or he don't

683
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:16,160
Speaker 1: get it?

684
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:16,800
Speaker 10: Damn yah.

685
00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 7: He has no idea who Steve is.

686
00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: I think he knew who Volk was once.

687
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:23,080
Speaker 3: Like it was in the newspaper. He read an article,

688
00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:23,720
Speaker 3: you know, but.

689
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:26,720
Speaker 1: He has his heart recovered from Steve Irwin's death.

690
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 3: No, no one has. I was gonna say, who has.

691
00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I mean Bendy was kind of cute

692
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: on Dancing with the Stars, right, No, all right, enough

693
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: of that, Luke or Seguins right, maybe.

694
00:33:38,360 --> 00:33:41,840
Speaker 3: By some maybe if he loses here, this would be

695
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 3: really bad.

696
00:33:42,720 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: He should win, all right, that's a bounce back opportunity

697
00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 1: for him.

698
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:47,720
Speaker 2: Uh.

699
00:33:48,160 --> 00:33:50,360
Speaker 1: I don't know if you care about these fights in order, Luke,

700
00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: what else do you care about?

701
00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,760
Speaker 3: On this card. Let me pull the card that I

702
00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 3: have here for you. I will say there's some interesting

703
00:33:56,680 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 3: fights on this card. Your mileage may vary, but I

704
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:05,760
Speaker 3: feel like Angela Hill versus Yasmin Lucindo is kind of interesting. Dude,

705
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 3: Hill is Basse is almost beaten forties door down, and

706
00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 3: I know she's up and she's down, but a lot

707
00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,840
Speaker 3: of the ones where she's down, they're still pretty close,

708
00:34:14,200 --> 00:34:15,680
Speaker 3: and she guts it out. She's one three of her

709
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,600
Speaker 3: last five. She's trying to get a title shot, you know,

710
00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,919
Speaker 3: before her career comes to a close. I really hope

711
00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 3: she gets an opportunity because she's a really smart and

712
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 3: interesting person, and you know, is she the best fighter

713
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 3: I've ever seen? No, but she's good and she's scrappy,

714
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:30,919
Speaker 3: and she's just constantly getting better. So I really hope

715
00:34:30,920 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 3: for her. You know, Andre fee Le versus c Rod

716
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:37,000
Speaker 3: should be that should be kind of interesting, particularly I

717
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,160
Speaker 3: think on the ground, to the extent that it goes there.

718
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:41,960
Speaker 3: Let's see who else we got here. I'm not really

719
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 3: all that interested in Eric Hoors and Christian Lloyd Duncan.

720
00:34:44,280 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 3: That one you can miss me with. I especially don't

721
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,439
Speaker 3: give a shit about Jocelyn Edwards and Priscilla catch Where.

722
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: However, this card was way better than last week. I'm wrong.

723
00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,160
Speaker 1: Last week overachieved with those action fights, is I don't?

724
00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:57,960
Speaker 1: Is this good a good card?

725
00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 3: The Miles Johnson, you know, Matsumoto fight is pretty interesting. Also,

726
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:04,240
Speaker 3: I'll give a bit of a shout out to earlsch

727
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 3: Madag and Gilbert Robina. Yeah, and also, you know, somewhat

728
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:10,480
Speaker 3: kind of friend of the show, Cody Brundage is opening

729
00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:11,759
Speaker 3: the main are the and.

730
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:14,560
Speaker 1: The current jerker. He's actually uh, I mean he's fresh

731
00:35:14,560 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 1: off of no contest.

732
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:19,320
Speaker 7: But they led added the fight this week, so that

733
00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:20,760
Speaker 7: might have just thrown at the beginning.

734
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:23,320
Speaker 1: I mean, we don't talk about the MMA power couple

735
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: that is Cody Bundridge and ABC. Why don't we?

736
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:29,560
Speaker 3: I mean I think you talk about it NonStop.

737
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,719
Speaker 1: I was a huge Amanda Bobby Cooper fan back in

738
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:34,400
Speaker 1: the day.

739
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 3: No, all right, I want to ask you when Ronda

740
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 3: Rousey was at her peak, how often were you jacking off?

741
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:45,400
Speaker 1: That's a disgusting notion that I will not answer you on. Okay. Lucendo,

742
00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 1: by the way, is a minus one eighty favorite over

743
00:35:47,480 --> 00:35:49,600
Speaker 1: the plus one fifty Angela Hill on that main card,

744
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: Andre Phellia plus two hundred underdog against the minus two

745
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:56,839
Speaker 1: forty five c Rod. Let's bring it undercard special Yeah goo,

746
00:35:56,960 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: go back there, you go, undercard specialist, Luke Nosda. I

747
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,320
Speaker 1: know you're going live this Saturday on the main card minute,

748
00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:03,880
Speaker 1: because that's.

749
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,440
Speaker 3: The you should change the main card minute to your

750
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:07,680
Speaker 3: fuck my girlfriend.

751
00:36:09,280 --> 00:36:11,719
Speaker 7: I already do that, Luke, it's just you know, after

752
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:12,560
Speaker 7: the stream is over.

753
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,920
Speaker 1: But uh wow, I didn't need that.

754
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:18,839
Speaker 7: But uh right, I was gonna say I was with

755
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,120
Speaker 7: UBC that I thought this card was better than last

756
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 7: weekend's card, but upon further inspection, it may be.

757
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 3: They're all they're all the fucking same. Dude. It's just

758
00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:28,000
Speaker 3: it's just overflow.

759
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,920
Speaker 1: It's just a better main event arguably, I guess that's it.

760
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:34,279
Speaker 7: But uh yeah, dude, Uh there's not much on this card.

761
00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:36,560
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna do. UF three nineteen is a is

762
00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:38,920
Speaker 3: a pretty good if to not to maybe like a

763
00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 3: really good card, and uh let's just focus on that.

767
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:54,000

00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,439
Speaker 1: you just don't see enough big fights in Chicagy drick

774
00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,480
Speaker 1: Is Duplessi and hamzat Chimaia and your middleweight Championship main event.

775
00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,800
Speaker 1: We talk about it almost every episode, how damn excited

776
00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 1: we are. This feels like a super duper great matchup.

777
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:25,480
Speaker 1: I really feel like I don't think I've been as

778
00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:30,239
Speaker 1: excited for a fight like this since max Ilia Islam

779
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,879
Speaker 1: versus Volk one, Like some of those recent big ones

780
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,080
Speaker 1: where you're like, this is a big fight, but it's

781
00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:40,319
Speaker 1: also a hardcore fans fight. I'm getting that feeling. Gear Well,

782
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,920
Speaker 1: turn back the clock and the closest thing UFC has

783
00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:45,200
Speaker 1: done to a pay per view press tour and what

784
00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:48,240
Speaker 1: feels like a long while. The two one to eighty

785
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:51,640
Speaker 1: five headliners and next week's show made the rounds this

786
00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:55,439
Speaker 1: week more aggressively, of course, with the champion DDP, who

787
00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:57,399
Speaker 1: not only threw out the first pitch at Wrigley Field

788
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,719
Speaker 1: in Chicago, he was on local News All podcast.

789
00:38:00,719 --> 00:38:02,040
Speaker 3: Oh can I say something about that?

790
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:02,680
Speaker 1: Yeah?

791
00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:05,240
Speaker 3: Is in my imagination or has it been a while

792
00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 3: that the UFC goes to a city for a paper,

793
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 3: not not counting Vegas obviously, like some some outside of

794
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 3: the Vegas thing, and they put their fighters on like

795
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 3: morning radio, morning TV, you know all that kind of stuff.

796
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,840
Speaker 3: Like DDP did a great job with it. It was

797
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,440
Speaker 3: nice to see. This is good promotion for him, it's

798
00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,760
Speaker 3: good promotion for Frankly MMA, and it's good promotion obviously

799
00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,600
Speaker 3: for that event. Like I was really heartened to see

800
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:33,120
Speaker 3: this kind of thing.

801
00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,239
Speaker 1: Dude, I miss this, and I know the reason why

802
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,919
Speaker 1: they don't do it, largely to be cheap and save

803
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,160
Speaker 1: money because their focus isn't on driving up pay per

804
00:38:40,239 --> 00:38:43,120
Speaker 1: view sales in this climate with this content deal. But

805
00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:45,680
Speaker 1: when I mentioned I talked about on my love chat today,

806
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:49,960
Speaker 1: when I mentioned how excited I was for Holloway Toporia

807
00:38:50,080 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: for example, I remember that fight week being like you

808
00:38:53,280 --> 00:38:55,319
Speaker 1: and I are fired up, but I feel like there's

809
00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,960
Speaker 1: no buzz outside of hardcore MMA fans because they don't

810
00:38:59,040 --> 00:39:01,279
Speaker 1: do what they used to do, which was exactly this.

811
00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:05,359
Speaker 1: Hit the ground, get the news cycles churning a week

812
00:39:05,400 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 1: or two weeks out, and really get us fired up.

813
00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,480
Speaker 1: I'm already fired up for this, but I gotta be honest,

814
00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: these clips that we're gonna play and just seeing this

815
00:39:13,760 --> 00:39:18,400
Speaker 1: fight constantly on my timeline and the interviews and the comments, dude,

816
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,800
Speaker 1: this is how you get people excited about big time events. Please,

817
00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:25,080
Speaker 1: UFC go back to this, spend the money in the

818
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:28,080
Speaker 1: next broadcast deal wherever it goes, But back to the

819
00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 1: setup here. What these interviews really did this is helped

820
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,160
Speaker 1: set the narratives early as we close in on one

821
00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 1: of the most anticipated matchups in a while. Luke, we

822
00:39:37,280 --> 00:39:41,400
Speaker 1: are going to get down on this card in six

823
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,600
Speaker 1: days next Thursday when we hit you with UFC three

824
00:39:44,600 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: to nineteen pregame preview live and direct from Metal Lark

825
00:39:47,719 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 1: in Manhattan. Special get third guests still to come, and

826
00:39:50,960 --> 00:39:53,400
Speaker 1: we are gonna go hard on Quervo, maybe even that

827
00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:56,840
Speaker 1: Devil's Reserve. But humor me right now, what do you

828
00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 1: think is the biggest single question about this FI that

829
00:40:00,680 --> 00:40:03,960
Speaker 1: can only be answered inside the cage? That you're getting

830
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,080
Speaker 1: excited about.

831
00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:10,280
Speaker 3: What happens after round three? Yes, everybody keeps talking about

832
00:40:10,480 --> 00:40:14,919
Speaker 3: what about round one? And obviously round one is going

833
00:40:15,040 --> 00:40:20,640
Speaker 3: to be pivotal in enormous ways, right, what could happen

834
00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:23,800
Speaker 3: so DDP could get finished because Hamzat is the fucking

835
00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:26,120
Speaker 3: you know, evil Knievel just getting shot out of a cannon.

836
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 3: That's one, or he survives round one, but it's so

837
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,799
Speaker 3: battered at the fight, you know, it becomes you know,

838
00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 3: academic at that point afterwards. So that's what everyone keeps talking about,

839
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 3: is round one, round one, round one. And of course,

840
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:43,919
Speaker 3: like no one can dismiss that, right, But I said

841
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,080
Speaker 3: something on Twitter the other day, and of course, like

842
00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:47,799
Speaker 3: anything on Twitter, you can say two poles two is four.

843
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,319
Speaker 3: People disagree. But let me just sort of defend it

844
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:53,680
Speaker 3: here a little bit, which is I'm getting hendo whoa

845
00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 3: vibes for this fight?

846
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,680
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I am I have a phoner?

847
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 3: Okay, So but I want to explain with that means, right,

848
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 3: I'm not saying that it's going to look exactly like

849
00:41:05,160 --> 00:41:07,680
Speaker 3: that fight. That's not what I'm saying. And I can't

850
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 3: even declare that it'll be at you know that one

851
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,120
Speaker 3: went the distance. This one might not go the distance.

852
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 3: But what I am trying to point out about it

853
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 3: is two things. One, when this may sound dude, I

854
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 3: remember them lead up to that fucking fight week when

855
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,560
Speaker 3: they fought each other. People were kind of hyped for it,

856
00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:28,279
Speaker 3: but like people didn't know what to make of that fight.

857
00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 3: They didn't know how the two were gonna get like interacted.

858
00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 3: There was a little bit of like, we don't really

859
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 3: know how this is going to go, and there certainly

860
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,720
Speaker 3: was an expectation that it would deliver. But what happened

861
00:41:36,800 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 3: was the way in which those two came together. It

862
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:44,680
Speaker 3: unlocked something bigger than themselves. I feel like Hamzot and

863
00:41:44,800 --> 00:41:48,120
Speaker 3: DDP have the capacity to do not again, not the

864
00:41:48,160 --> 00:41:51,400
Speaker 3: exact same thing, but unlock something and you get a

865
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 3: bigger fight than what I think people. I mean, there's

866
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 3: obviously high expectations, but you know, delivering in that particular case.

867
00:41:56,680 --> 00:41:58,600
Speaker 3: The second thing I want to say is what was

868
00:41:58,719 --> 00:42:02,440
Speaker 3: interesting about Hendo and who Hua was. The third round

869
00:42:02,640 --> 00:42:07,200
Speaker 3: was the sort of the demarcation line where Hendo beats

870
00:42:07,520 --> 00:42:11,640
Speaker 3: the fuck out of Shogun Hua for fifteen minutes and

871
00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 3: then in the last two rounds Shogun is kicking his

872
00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:18,240
Speaker 3: ass to the point where he's in mount and fucking

873
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,920
Speaker 3: raining down punishment on him. And be see, if you

874
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:23,920
Speaker 3: think about it for a second, think about times that

875
00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,600
Speaker 3: the tide has turned in five round fights. Another example,

876
00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 3: for example would be John Jones versus Gustafson one. It

877
00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 3: was after the third round that it was the pivotal round.

878
00:42:36,480 --> 00:42:39,920
Speaker 3: So to me, again, any number of different things are

879
00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,920
Speaker 3: possible here, but let's say this fight actually makes it

880
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 3: to the third round. What happens after that is to me,

881
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:49,920
Speaker 3: the real fucking story about what you're gonna get. And

882
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,360
Speaker 3: I can't wait to see what happens.

883
00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 1: Dude, I can't wait to see if jimaiav can do

884
00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,640
Speaker 1: the same thing he did to wait at Ker Holland

885
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,440
Speaker 1: and all these dudes early on. I can't wait to

886
00:42:59,440 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 1: see if Jim I have as that championship cardio. All

887
00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 1: that stuff is firing me up. And what's interesting, if

888
00:43:05,800 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 1: I recall, tell me if I'm wrong, we're Henderson Huo

889
00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,160
Speaker 1: one is arguably the best action fight in the history

890
00:43:11,160 --> 00:43:13,960
Speaker 1: of the UFC. Didn't that go head to head with

891
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:18,000
Speaker 1: Eddie Alvarez. Michael Chandler's two in arguably the best fight

892
00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:19,360
Speaker 1: in Bell to I remember that.

893
00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:21,080
Speaker 3: The same I didn't it didn't go ahead to head.

894
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:23,839
Speaker 3: One happened before the other one, so that those two

895
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:25,759
Speaker 3: fights happened on the same day.

896
00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:28,959
Speaker 1: You're right, because I remember sitting in the ESPN dot

897
00:43:28,960 --> 00:43:33,600
Speaker 1: com newsroom, uh, wrapping up our our coverage. I was

898
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:36,239
Speaker 1: like a page editor wrapping up our coverage of the

899
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:38,680
Speaker 1: Bell tour as the guy next to me was watching

900
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,840
Speaker 1: Henderson who was start, and they were just like losing

901
00:43:41,920 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: their shit.

902
00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 2: Uh.

903
00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:44,680
Speaker 1: Shout out to that. I hope we get something even

904
00:43:44,719 --> 00:43:48,319
Speaker 1: remotely close to that. We've got some sound to react to.

905
00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,440
Speaker 1: Let's start first with DDP sitting down with the Chicago

906
00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:57,640
Speaker 1: Sports Network. He wore many Chicago Sports jerseys on the media. Yeah,

907
00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:00,880
Speaker 1: it was funny to see he saw talking about how

908
00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,040
Speaker 1: much damn weight he has to cut for this one

909
00:44:04,160 --> 00:44:07,960
Speaker 1: eighty five title limit. Let's listen. Five one, what do

910
00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:09,759
Speaker 1: you walk around there? And then how far away from

911
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,000
Speaker 1: that one eighty five are you right now?

912
00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,799
Speaker 4: I'm still quite a bit quite a favorite away from

913
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,840
Speaker 4: from one eighty five, but I do walk around around

914
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:21,240
Speaker 4: two twenty five to thirty. That's that's my walk around

915
00:44:21,239 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 4: way out of camp, of course, and then in camp

916
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:26,120
Speaker 4: wet we started to slim down and you know, right

917
00:44:26,120 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 4: now my weight's on track weight. He's wait, it's perfectly

918
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:30,680
Speaker 4: while I needed to be this stage for the fight,

919
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,000
Speaker 4: and yeah, we are ten days away from from Wayne

920
00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:36,280
Speaker 4: right now, and this is where the hard thoughts start,

921
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 4: you know, getting the body ready to cut that water

922
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,080
Speaker 4: and put it back on safely.

923
00:44:41,120 --> 00:44:44,120
Speaker 1: Look, he's a big mffort. And I said, I don't

924
00:44:44,120 --> 00:44:46,640
Speaker 1: want to get too deep into the analysis here ahead

925
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:50,279
Speaker 1: of next week. But Tamaiah, even if he does take

926
00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 1: this guy down around one and try to do Hamsat things,

927
00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:56,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's fought a guy this physical before.

928
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,840
Speaker 3: You would say, But like the version of Usmin that

929
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 3: he got while Crafty is you know, diminished. Just dude,

930
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:09,880
Speaker 3: this is peak fucking DDP. You know what I mean? Peak?

931
00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:13,480
Speaker 3: And I don't know if you saw it. I don't

932
00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,360
Speaker 3: know if we have the video. Did you see DDP

933
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 3: in his corner Sorry, did you see tremaiav and his

934
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 3: cornerman making fun of the way that DDP throws punches. No,

935
00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:25,319
Speaker 3: it's the best impression of DDP I've ever fucking seen.

936
00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,759
Speaker 3: Not like the way he talks, but like the physical mannerisms.

937
00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 3: You know, it was incredible to see that, like this

938
00:45:31,400 --> 00:45:34,319
Speaker 3: is the reality. Like DDP is who we think he is.

939
00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,319
Speaker 3: You know, he's weird and it's sometimes goofy, but like

940
00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 3: he's all fucking tank and the reality is tremaiev. I

941
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,399
Speaker 3: think he's probably better suited at eighty five, but this

942
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,319
Speaker 3: is a guy who fought at seventy. You know, dude,

943
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:49,600
Speaker 3: Tremiah excuse me, h DDP couldn't find at one seventy

944
00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 3: short of amputation. You know, it just wouldn't. It couldn't happen.

945
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 3: So you know, I I again, it's just so many

946
00:45:56,719 --> 00:46:00,600
Speaker 3: interesting ways in which these two line up. I can't.

947
00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,560
Speaker 3: I have said it BC as the as the as uh,

948
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 3: you know, the biggest Taforio Booster the last two fucking

949
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:11,000
Speaker 3: years in this sport. Even I even I have been

950
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:13,520
Speaker 3: said since the beginning, this is the fight on the

951
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,080
Speaker 3: calendar I care the most about in MMA or boxing.

952
00:46:17,400 --> 00:46:20,120
Speaker 3: I care more about this one than I do Canelo Crawford.

953
00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:21,560
Speaker 3: You'll take that as you will.

954
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm kind of I'm starting to get there with you.

955
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,520
Speaker 1: A DDP on this streak of consecutive we he's twenty

956
00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:29,880
Speaker 1: three in two overall, he has not lost since a

957
00:46:30,000 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen fight in the rematch with Roberto Soldiitch, Is

958
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:35,640
Speaker 1: that how I'm saying this, Luke I always I get

959
00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:36,239
Speaker 1: to whatitcher on that?

960
00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've heard it, so Soldich like ful Diick.

961
00:46:39,560 --> 00:46:42,120
Speaker 1: Yeah that's the Uh. That was a rematch there for

962
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: the KSW Welterweight Championship. He's unbeaten in the UFC. But

963
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:49,240
Speaker 1: how about this run of submitting darre until, stopping Derek Runson,

964
00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:54,320
Speaker 1: stopping Robert Whitaker, split decision over Sean Strickland, submitting Autosania,

965
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,400
Speaker 1: beating Strickland by decision in the rematch. He adds Chamaiev

966
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: to this list. We are talking about really a legendary roun.

967
00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:05,240
Speaker 1: One more piece of sound from DDP as he talked

968
00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 1: about that big challenge, that first round, that wrestling of

969
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:12,280
Speaker 1: hamzat Jemaia and dealing with it. Let's listen.

970
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:15,120
Speaker 6: Osma is really known for his relentless pressure.

971
00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:16,560
Speaker 11: He's an elite grappler as well.

972
00:47:16,920 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 6: What can you exploit against him?

973
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:22,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it comes out obviously world loss ratling, grappling,

974
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:26,239
Speaker 4: and but you know this level of the sports, everybody's

975
00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:28,800
Speaker 4: world loss. You know this is not grappling or wrestling.

976
00:47:28,800 --> 00:47:31,960
Speaker 4: This is MMA, and that's where I'm gonna exploit is

977
00:47:32,040 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 4: being the best in my I'm not the We're not

978
00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 4: fighting for a wrestling title, We're not fighting for grappling tittle.

979
00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 4: We are fighting for the UFC title, and that's where

980
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,400
Speaker 4: I am the best. I'm not the best rattler, I'm

981
00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:44,319
Speaker 4: not the best grappling all the best sharka. But when

982
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,359
Speaker 4: you put all of those things together, if you can

983
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 4: bond it, and that's the sport we do, I am

984
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:50,440
Speaker 4: the best in the world.

985
00:47:51,120 --> 00:47:53,400
Speaker 1: Shout out to that lady from Fox thirty two who's like,

986
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:56,040
Speaker 1: so when you have the fight against the Hazmat Sue,

987
00:47:56,040 --> 00:47:56,839
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do?

988
00:47:57,000 --> 00:47:57,200
Speaker 8: Yeah?

989
00:47:57,200 --> 00:48:00,359
Speaker 1: That was good stuff right there. Yeah, that's fantastic. All right,

990
00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,080
Speaker 1: We'll see how he deals with that physicality. Let's go

991
00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,480
Speaker 1: to Jamaiah who had a very lengthy sit down with

992
00:48:05,480 --> 00:48:09,520
Speaker 1: Bretto Komoto of ESPN MMA inside a kitchen, and one

993
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,239
Speaker 1: of the big things Tamaiah corrected the record on is

994
00:48:12,280 --> 00:48:15,120
Speaker 1: this narrative that if he wins the championship, hill a

995
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 1: retire or we can add in the concerns that Dean

996
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:22,640
Speaker 1: Thomas has had publicly that Tremiah will be inactive due

997
00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:24,920
Speaker 1: to the up and down run he's had with health,

998
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:28,960
Speaker 1: Visa's bad luck all of that. Here's Tremaia of addressing

999
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:32,120
Speaker 1: that rumors with the most handsome man in MMA media.

1000
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:35,200
Speaker 8: I think you know there's this there's this rumor out

1001
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:38,760
Speaker 8: there that if you win the championship that you will retire.

1002
00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:39,719
Speaker 3: Have you seen this?

1003
00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:46,480
Speaker 12: I see that Kaias said I'm gonna I don't know

1004
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:53,000
Speaker 12: what he's here that thinks. So I need money. This

1005
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:55,840
Speaker 12: is not enough just to go for the one title.

1006
00:48:56,160 --> 00:49:00,720
Speaker 12: So I hopefully if you not get some jito some stuff,

1007
00:49:00,800 --> 00:49:05,160
Speaker 12: they're going to fight for, defend the belt or fight

1008
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,240
Speaker 12: for other belt. About that base.

1009
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 1: Well fourteen and oh is Jemaiah overall on a streak

1010
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:17,680
Speaker 1: of consecutive wins over Kevin Holland, Kamara Ustman, Robert Whittaker, Luke.

1011
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: I like that that he's gonna be around a while.

1012
00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:22,480
Speaker 1: He needs some money. I would have thought he's well

1013
00:49:22,520 --> 00:49:24,560
Speaker 1: taken care of by his boy kadeerv Or we don't

1014
00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: talk about that.

1015
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,879
Speaker 3: I guess Kadiro hasn't been seen that much recently. God

1016
00:49:28,920 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 3: only knows what he's up to these days.

1017
00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:34,000
Speaker 1: But listen, I'll just entertaining Gaechee and all the other

1018
00:49:34,040 --> 00:49:35,439
Speaker 1: ali Yes, yes, they.

1019
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 3: Get they get real mad when you bring this up,

1020
00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,160
Speaker 3: even though you know they did it for you know,

1021
00:49:39,560 --> 00:49:41,560
Speaker 3: public assumption. But okay, neither here nor there.

1022
00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: That beard, dude, that beard's massive.

1023
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,920
Speaker 3: You see that beard is fucking massive. And you know,

1024
00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:50,480
Speaker 3: if anybody sort of looks like a fighter hums out,

1025
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,759
Speaker 3: Chamayah kind of looks like one. And I'll just say,

1026
00:49:52,800 --> 00:49:54,040
Speaker 3: I mean, now that he's able to compet in the

1027
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:57,840
Speaker 3: United States, you know, his earning potential is obviously, you know,

1028
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:01,120
Speaker 3: significantly boosted. I think the thing I would say to

1029
00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:03,120
Speaker 3: you see, so I was on Submission radio and he

1030
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,080
Speaker 3: asked me, like, you know, what's better if for the UFC,

1031
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:07,960
Speaker 3: if DDP or Hamsaw wins. And the reality is, dude,

1032
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 3: the answer is who they can build around long term?

1033
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,879
Speaker 3: Can they build around Hamsat long term? The answer is maybe, right,

1034
00:50:14,920 --> 00:50:17,520
Speaker 3: we don't know, but like possibly. But the other thing

1035
00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 3: to sort of think about is the answer maybe two

1036
00:50:20,080 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 3: years ago would have been like, oh, Hamza, he's like,

1037
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,319
Speaker 3: you know, he's like or maybe even three year whatever

1038
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:26,440
Speaker 3: it was like at the peak of his powers, it

1039
00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,680
Speaker 3: would have been Hamsa. But the thing to think about is,

1040
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 3: you know, I've seen guys get built into big time

1041
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,440
Speaker 3: stars and even legends in MMA. It takes time. It

1042
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 3: takes time, and DDP isn't there yet BC obviously, but

1043
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 3: this is his first fucking headlining pay per view in

1044
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:45,640
Speaker 3: the United States. Like it's gonna take time. He's already

1045
00:50:45,680 --> 00:50:48,839
Speaker 3: made some inroads. He goes out there and he beats Chimaiev,

1046
00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,239
Speaker 3: He's well on his way. So, like, I know, a

1047
00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:53,360
Speaker 3: few years ago, the answer would have been like, oh, Hamza,

1048
00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:55,359
Speaker 3: Like the sport is so interested in him and there

1049
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 3: could be nobody else and maybe maybe it should be him,

1050
00:50:58,200 --> 00:51:01,319
Speaker 3: maybe it will be him. But if DDP wins man,

1051
00:51:01,360 --> 00:51:04,080
Speaker 3: I truly believe, for all the ways in which he's

1052
00:51:04,120 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 3: already proven doubters wrong, he could round another promotional corner

1053
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:10,279
Speaker 3: that could be great for UFC and obviously for his

1054
00:51:10,320 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 3: career as a big time star in the sport.

1055
00:51:12,840 --> 00:51:16,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, he has monster star appeal. Even with the

1056
00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: ups and downs of his career, still on beating, still dominant.

1057
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,919
Speaker 1: Only really close fight was that Gilbert Burns war, which

1058
00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,920
Speaker 1: I still feel like he made harder than it needed

1059
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 1: to be. I also feel like he lost that fight.

1060
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 1: Shout out to Gilbert, friend of the program. Right there.

1061
00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:32,840
Speaker 1: One more piece of sound here for Tremaiev. That's pretty interesting.

1062
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:34,959
Speaker 1: The one lament I've had on his run so far

1063
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 1: with these inconsistencies is I did want to see him

1064
00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:40,880
Speaker 1: fight for the welterweight title before moving up to middleweight.

1065
00:51:41,160 --> 00:51:43,000
Speaker 1: But we got a piece of sound here from Tremaiev

1066
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:47,640
Speaker 1: talking about his ambition. He's not done. He's not done.

1067
00:51:47,640 --> 00:51:51,040
Speaker 1: If he wins this middleweight championship, he has a lot

1068
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:52,520
Speaker 1: more goals to attain.

1069
00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 12: I work with a new coach, coach Kyle. I talk

1070
00:51:56,080 --> 00:52:00,440
Speaker 12: about him go down again. Back to my first fights,

1071
00:52:00,440 --> 00:52:03,960
Speaker 12: you know the one seventy seventy five? Was that one

1072
00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 12: seventy He said, it gives me a couple of months

1073
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:11,479
Speaker 12: again him, We're gonna make it. So I don't know

1074
00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 12: who is the champion at this guy, Australian guy would

1075
00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:18,960
Speaker 12: be a good fight for me and go down fight

1076
00:52:19,040 --> 00:52:22,279
Speaker 12: with him as well. Could take the bet there if

1077
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 12: I go up and there is uncle ale and uh

1078
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 12: his name Alex Alex Pereira. They're fighting on who's winning

1079
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:33,600
Speaker 12: Canda fight for the belt as well.

1080
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:39,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, we thought the first person to attempt. The

1081
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,000
Speaker 1: three division champion was Connor. Then we thought it would

1082
00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,359
Speaker 1: probably be Pereira for a little bit, we thought out

1083
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:46,880
Speaker 1: of Sonia. Do you think he'll get that chance? Or

1084
00:52:46,880 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 1: is this just big ball ambition?

1085
00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:52,000
Speaker 3: He hasn't won a single fucking title yet. What are

1086
00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:53,000
Speaker 3: we talking about?

1087
00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:54,480
Speaker 1: I guess talking about it?

1088
00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:57,359
Speaker 3: Not mean like, is he one of these kinds of

1089
00:52:57,440 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 3: guys who you could like look at and say, hey,

1090
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:06,800
Speaker 3: would he be a good candidate potentially for something like that? Sure? Sure,

1091
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:09,680
Speaker 3: but that is you know, I don't know how to

1092
00:53:09,719 --> 00:53:13,560
Speaker 3: explain that. It's sort of like like I'm not sure

1093
00:53:13,600 --> 00:53:15,719
Speaker 3: what the analogy would be. It's like, oh, you know,

1094
00:53:17,760 --> 00:53:21,880
Speaker 3: climbing El Capitan. You know, uh, who's a good candidate

1095
00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,279
Speaker 3: for you find the world's best climbers. And it's like, okay,

1096
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:28,080
Speaker 3: but that's still like an insanely difficult fucking task that,

1097
00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:29,960
Speaker 3: you know, let's just sort of imagine that no one's

1098
00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,000
Speaker 3: done yet, like just to get the fuck out of here.

1099
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:35,359
Speaker 3: He hasn't even gotten one fucking title yet, much less too,

1100
00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:37,839
Speaker 3: and we're talking about could he get three? Let's let's

1101
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 3: get one and then we'll talk about two.

1102
00:53:39,719 --> 00:53:42,160
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean it's probably not gonna happen where he

1103
00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 1: could go from beating DDP to beating the winner of

1104
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:48,920
Speaker 1: Islam JDM to beating the winner of Anklia Pereira. But

1105
00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 1: I love the big ball talk that goes with that. Well,

1106
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:55,760
Speaker 1: we have not seen a ton of trash talk between

1107
00:53:55,840 --> 00:53:59,239
Speaker 1: Duplessi and Shamaiah in the build up to this fight,

1108
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:02,440
Speaker 1: but there is somebody who is talking trash about Jemiah.

1109
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,000
Speaker 1: His name is Sean Strickland. We had to call in

1110
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,279
Speaker 1: our friends from Quervo because this sounds a lot like

1111
00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:16,799
Speaker 1: shots Fire, and of course this edition of shots Fire

1112
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:18,839
Speaker 1: brought to you by Quervo. Now is a good time

1113
00:54:18,880 --> 00:54:22,640
Speaker 1: to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila, and we will

1114
00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:26,160
Speaker 1: be enjoying that next Thursday at pregame preview. Here's Strickland

1115
00:54:26,160 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: looking back on the sparring that he previously did at

1116
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 1: Extreme Patre in Vegas with Tremiah.

1117
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:37,759
Speaker 11: Tremiah is just a fucking coming. I mean I was

1118
00:54:37,800 --> 00:54:40,200
Speaker 11: here when he retired from COVID. I was training with him,

1119
00:54:40,200 --> 00:54:42,200
Speaker 11: like he's just a fucking com you know. It's like

1120
00:54:43,480 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 11: if you you always say to those guys, if you

1121
00:54:45,600 --> 00:54:48,200
Speaker 11: knew on a personal level, you went like tamaiav as

1122
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:49,680
Speaker 11: one as people. If you knew you wann't like it,

1123
00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,680
Speaker 11: you know he'll come in here. There's a video in me.

1124
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:56,640
Speaker 2: I always look like, oh you're so good comas, you're

1125
00:54:56,680 --> 00:54:58,160
Speaker 2: better than most, You're.

1126
00:54:58,040 --> 00:55:00,120
Speaker 1: Better than everybody.

1127
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,640
Speaker 2: Don't hurt you, Like I'm being sarcastic. Like, bro, like

1128
00:55:04,680 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 2: you go and you fucking start this one in one

1129
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:12,799
Speaker 2: guy when there's like ed men, there's like high level

1130
00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:16,719
Speaker 2: UC fighters and you're picking the one one in one

1131
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:19,799
Speaker 2: fighter because like you think he's the same height as

1132
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:21,760
Speaker 2: your opponent and no, you're picking him to your fitch dude,

1133
00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 2: Like he's just yeah, he's just like no matter he

1134
00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:27,680
Speaker 2: could fight, but like mentally he's just a weak man.

1135
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:29,239
Speaker 11: You know, he's just a weak man.

1136
00:55:29,920 --> 00:55:32,920
Speaker 1: Damn them are fighting words. And those words were relayed

1137
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:36,000
Speaker 1: to Hamzat Chimaya of yesterday. Here's his response.

1138
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,960
Speaker 13: When you were in Vegas, you trained that Extreme P

1139
00:55:39,080 --> 00:55:41,799
Speaker 13: two with Sean Strickland. He's been saying some stuff in

1140
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:45,439
Speaker 13: interviews about you just didn't like your approach. Just why

1141
00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:46,960
Speaker 13: do you think he's saying that and do you have

1142
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:47,640
Speaker 13: a response.

1143
00:55:48,520 --> 00:55:50,319
Speaker 12: I don't know. When I was there and even Able

1144
00:55:50,440 --> 00:55:53,200
Speaker 12: said anything, you know when I leave the Vegas and

1145
00:55:53,239 --> 00:55:56,160
Speaker 12: when I they stopped my Riza, he started to talk.

1146
00:55:56,280 --> 00:55:57,880
Speaker 12: When I come back, I'm in a labro.

1147
00:55:58,760 --> 00:55:59,239
Speaker 3: Come home.

1148
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,960
Speaker 12: If he's something personal for you, just come. I'm here.

1149
00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:05,360
Speaker 12: Why any what he wants?

1150
00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:08,600
Speaker 1: Just come? All right, he's here, Luke, you can get

1151
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:11,320
Speaker 1: in this country again. Just come. We were in the

1152
00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:14,360
Speaker 1: extreme Coutur with coach Eric Nixon for that for that

1153
00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:17,239
Speaker 1: RSD that time, and they did. They did. Those guys

1154
00:56:17,280 --> 00:56:19,600
Speaker 1: in the gym we're talking about when JEMAIAV was there

1155
00:56:19,880 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 1: and that people had success against him. I know sparring

1156
00:56:23,000 --> 00:56:25,440
Speaker 1: is sparring. You're not always getting that. But is this

1157
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 1: Strickland trying to plan a seed for a future fight

1158
00:56:27,840 --> 00:56:29,759
Speaker 1: or just Strickland being Strickland.

1159
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:33,399
Speaker 3: Definitely, I don't think there's any way to say it's,

1160
00:56:33,600 --> 00:56:37,279
Speaker 3: you know, Strickland being Strickland has to be part of it, right,

1161
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:40,560
Speaker 3: I mean there's you know, he doesn't know how to

1162
00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:42,279
Speaker 3: talk without doing that kind of thing from what I

1163
00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 3: can tell. But I think what I would say is

1164
00:56:44,719 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 3: it's an interesting claim that he's making. Okay, so I've

1165
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:55,760
Speaker 3: done I've done enough training to know that I'm not good.

1166
00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:00,600
Speaker 3: But I've also done enough training to know and see

1167
00:57:00,600 --> 00:57:05,360
Speaker 3: what he's talked about. There are definitely guys and sometimes

1168
00:57:05,360 --> 00:57:07,799
Speaker 3: it happens at the heavyweight end because they can wait

1169
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:12,520
Speaker 3: bully where you know it's time to spar and you know,

1170
00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 3: for high level guys that's much more coordinated, like they

1171
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:17,120
Speaker 3: know exactly who they're sparring with and blah blah blah.

1172
00:57:17,160 --> 00:57:19,680
Speaker 3: But you know, it's more like an open class. You

1173
00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:21,439
Speaker 3: kind of have to just pick guys either your size,

1174
00:57:21,440 --> 00:57:23,680
Speaker 3: and then you just rotate out and then you could

1175
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:25,760
Speaker 3: end up with a lot of different kind of opponents,

1176
00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:29,320
Speaker 3: right you lengthier ones, shorter ones, smaller ones, bigger ones,

1177
00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,600
Speaker 3: depending on who you are. And I've definitely seen, I've

1178
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:35,480
Speaker 3: absolutely seen what he's talking about where there are guys

1179
00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:39,960
Speaker 3: who kind of carefully pick who they're going to go

1180
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 3: up against so that they don't look bad as a

1181
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:45,560
Speaker 3: consequence or they don't get a tough round. I've seen it.

1182
00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:49,240
Speaker 3: I've seen it in many different ways. You know, it

1183
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:52,919
Speaker 3: would surprise me if Hamzad is that way, it would

1184
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:56,160
Speaker 3: surprise me. But let's just posit something. Let's say for

1185
00:57:56,200 --> 00:57:59,840
Speaker 3: a second that Sean is right, if Hamzad is that way.

1186
00:58:00,080 --> 00:58:05,040
Speaker 3: That's if if ddp's going to fuck him up, right

1187
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:08,720
Speaker 3: WHOA well again, if if he's the kind of guy

1188
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 3: who when the when you know you're picking rounds to

1189
00:58:13,040 --> 00:58:16,600
Speaker 3: train and you're purposely picking around who you're supposed to

1190
00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 3: be training with because you either want to dominate or

1191
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:23,480
Speaker 3: you want an easy role, or you know whatever. Ddp's

1192
00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 3: going to feast on a guy like that. So let's

1193
00:58:26,360 --> 00:58:28,760
Speaker 3: see if Sean Strickland is right. I guess is my point.

1194
00:58:28,840 --> 00:58:29,640
Speaker 3: Let's see if he's right.

1195
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:33,000
Speaker 1: Damn. I cannot wait for this fight next week.

1196
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 3: This fight is fucking sick. I'm so pumped.

1197
00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:39,680
Speaker 1: And I'm really looking forward to the pregame preview because

1198
00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:41,880

Speaker 1: Thursday for UFC three nineteen pre game preview. Oh yeah,

1207
00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:16,840
Speaker 1: luke real quick. Earlier today, there was some breaking news

1208
00:59:16,880 --> 00:59:21,880
Speaker 1: on the UFC fight scene in Heo, Brazil, October eleventh.

1209
00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:25,840
Speaker 3: I saw this. I saw this Charles Olvera and Raphael Fhazeve.

1210
00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,520
Speaker 1: I'll bang her, bang her. I just met her, Olivera

1211
00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:31,760
Speaker 1: fazive your thoughts.

1212
00:59:31,720 --> 00:59:34,080
Speaker 3: What the fuck is Charles Olavera thinking? I know he

1213
00:59:34,120 --> 00:59:38,680
Speaker 3: probably wants to compete in Brazil, and God bless him.

1214
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 3: I hope he gets out of I hope he gets

1215
00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:42,680
Speaker 3: out of it what he wants. And it's not me

1216
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:46,160
Speaker 3: declaring he will lose. But holy shit, you are running

1217
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:49,960
Speaker 3: a risk. He just got flatlined and you're gonna turn

1218
00:59:50,000 --> 00:59:56,120
Speaker 3: around and go against a dynamic striker in Phyzeve in October.

1219
00:59:56,160 --> 01:00:01,000
Speaker 3: It is such a such a huge risk fight. I

1220
01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 3: hate Charles Oliveris thinking here, it's so dangerous.

1221
01:00:04,600 --> 01:00:06,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I hope he does the gray hair dye

1222
01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:08,000
Speaker 1: for this one. He's gonna need it.

1223
01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:08,360

1256
01:01:46,840 --> 01:01:50,520
Speaker 1: portion of today's show. How about this little news sneaking in?

1257
01:01:50,560 --> 01:01:54,680
Speaker 1: This week? The ABC, the Association of Boxing Commissions, has

1258
01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:59,760
Speaker 1: approofed changes to the MMA's unified scoring rules. The ABC

1259
01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:02,960
Speaker 1: hell their thirty seventh annual conference this week, where the

1260
01:02:03,080 --> 01:02:07,720
Speaker 1: language regarding MMA judging was overhauled to more accurately reflect

1261
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:12,760
Speaker 1: the current practices, particularly as it relates to damage. Good

1262
01:02:12,800 --> 01:02:15,479
Speaker 1: friend of the program Eric mcgracken, a non voting member

1263
01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 1: of the ABC committee, posted on his website Combat Sports

1264
01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:21,400
Speaker 1: Law dot Com that the old version of the rules

1265
01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:25,440
Speaker 1: shied away from the word damage despite making the concept

1266
01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:29,960
Speaker 1: of important. The new version emphasizes damage in several ways,

1267
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:34,720
Speaker 1: resulting in clearer and easier to understand language for fighters, officials,

1268
01:02:34,760 --> 01:02:38,400
Speaker 1: in the public at large. In addition to emphasizing damage

1269
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:42,120
Speaker 1: the key for determining a round winner, will also note

1270
01:02:42,200 --> 01:02:44,680
Speaker 1: that damage is essential to score a ten eight round,

1271
01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:49,640
Speaker 1: with dominance and duration together not being enough. And when

1272
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 1: judges can't determine a winner on damage and move on

1273
01:02:53,240 --> 01:02:57,520
Speaker 1: down to aggressiveness or fighting area control, they no longer

1274
01:02:57,560 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 1: can do so in a tiered way, but instead based

1275
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:07,080
Speaker 1: on whichever impacted the round in a more significant manner. Luke,

1276
01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 1: We've long talked about damage being the key, yet when

1277
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:13,000
Speaker 1: you look at the language of the law, it doesn't

1278
01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:16,400
Speaker 1: really add up evenly. Despite what Big John McCarthy said

1279
01:03:16,680 --> 01:03:19,840
Speaker 1: in having originally helped make that law. How do you

1280
01:03:19,880 --> 01:03:23,080
Speaker 1: think this changed to the letter of the law will

1281
01:03:23,600 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 1: help things moving forward?

1282
01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:30,840
Speaker 3: I maintain that it's just my opinion, but I maintain

1283
01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,200
Speaker 3: that the best kind of scoring criteria is the one

1284
01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:36,200
Speaker 3: that Pride and now One Championship used, where they judge

1285
01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 3: as a whole. Of course, there are criteria within that

1286
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:40,760
Speaker 3: to achieve that end, but that is the way that

1287
01:03:40,800 --> 01:03:42,880
Speaker 3: they do it. I just tend to think you get neater,

1288
01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,840
Speaker 3: less complicated problems as a result. I mean to me,

1289
01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:49,720
Speaker 3: they keep trying to iterate this, and I want to

1290
01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:53,000
Speaker 3: be clear, this iteration is a good one. This is

1291
01:03:53,080 --> 01:03:55,760
Speaker 3: I think it's not a massive change to what you're

1292
01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:58,840
Speaker 3: going to get in the sport, but it provides clarity,

1293
01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:04,760
Speaker 3: a degree of I think simplicity, and its streamlines the process,

1294
01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:07,160
Speaker 3: especially when you know when they when everything's equal, before

1295
01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:09,040
Speaker 3: they had the checklist, they had to go down, and

1296
01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:10,440
Speaker 3: now they're not going to do that. I think that's

1297
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,720
Speaker 3: a lot. I think that's a smart change. So I

1298
01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,160
Speaker 3: want to be clear. These are good changes, These are

1299
01:04:15,160 --> 01:04:19,120
Speaker 3: smart changes, These are efficient changes. Is it going to

1300
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:24,200
Speaker 3: radically alter the judging that you get. I think people

1301
01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:25,880
Speaker 3: are still going to complain about the judging, you know

1302
01:04:25,880 --> 01:04:28,680
Speaker 3: what I mean? Like, I think that you're making these

1303
01:04:28,800 --> 01:04:33,040
Speaker 3: changes right, they're gonna make the job of the judge easier.

1304
01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:35,480
Speaker 3: But there's a gap between how the judge or the

1305
01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:40,080
Speaker 3: judges perceive their job and what MMA fans think the

1306
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:42,880
Speaker 3: job of the judge is. And as long as that

1307
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:46,440
Speaker 3: gap exists, yes, you're making the job easier for the

1308
01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:49,560
Speaker 3: judges and that's not nothing. But you know, We're still

1309
01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:51,840
Speaker 3: gonna get belly aching about the decisions. That's kind of

1310
01:04:51,840 --> 01:04:52,360
Speaker 3: where I'm at.

1311
01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:54,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I got you on that one. There is a

1312
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:57,120
Speaker 1: new uh. They also voted on a new commissioner this week,

1313
01:04:57,160 --> 01:04:59,040
Speaker 1: Mike Mazzoli out, I forgot the name of the guy

1314
01:04:59,040 --> 01:04:59,640
Speaker 1: who took.

1315
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:02,960
Speaker 3: Over from Floridorida. Yeah, he was big.

1316
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:06,280
Speaker 1: On getting MMA back in Jacksonville during the for UFC

1317
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:10,400
Speaker 1: during COVID, So that's interesting. One connection to this, of course,

1318
01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:15,240
Speaker 1: is the California State Athletic Commission Executive Director Andy Foster,

1319
01:05:15,280 --> 01:05:18,560
Speaker 1: who did a very timely interview on the Ariel Hawane Show.

1320
01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:23,360
Speaker 1: Now Luke. He was very heavily maligned by by combat

1321
01:05:23,400 --> 01:05:27,320
Speaker 1: sports journalists for both his support excuse me, Timothy Shipman

1322
01:05:27,400 --> 01:05:30,240
Speaker 1: was the name, Thank you, Luke Mesida. The new ABC Commissioner.

1323
01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:32,600
Speaker 1: Andy Foster was on Aeriel and he took a lot

1324
01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:37,400
Speaker 1: of a ship for kind of softly supporting power slap

1325
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:42,200
Speaker 1: and then also really supporting the changes to the ALI

1326
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:44,320
Speaker 1: Act that TKO is behind and trying.

1327
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:48,120
Speaker 3: I hope, I hope, I hope every fighter understands like

1328
01:05:48,160 --> 01:05:51,640
Speaker 3: I've had a good relationship with with with him, and

1329
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:53,600
Speaker 3: you know, I'm not going to sit here and say

1330
01:05:53,640 --> 01:05:57,160
Speaker 3: bad things about him. But I hope every fighter who

1331
01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:02,960
Speaker 3: sees this or hears this understands that at the regulatory

1332
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:08,200
Speaker 3: apparatus in this country doesn't give a fuck about you. Yeah,

1333
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:09,880
Speaker 3: they don't give a fuck about you. They don't give

1334
01:06:09,880 --> 01:06:12,000
Speaker 3: a fuck about you. They don't want you to die

1335
01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:14,880
Speaker 3: in their state when you compete. But short of that,

1336
01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:15,880
Speaker 3: they don't give a fuck about it.

1337
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,080
Speaker 1: I mean, is it unfair to say they care more

1338
01:06:18,120 --> 01:06:20,640
Speaker 1: about making sure the promoters that bring in the big

1339
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:22,320
Speaker 1: money are going to keep coming back to their sees.

1340
01:06:22,400 --> 01:06:25,240
Speaker 3: Yes, it is quite obvious that that is a higher priority.

1341
01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:28,400
Speaker 1: Yes, all right, Well, uh my frozen can you see him?

1342
01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 7: Oh?

1343
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:30,680
Speaker 3: Here we go? How is it? I'm in a van

1344
01:06:30,800 --> 01:06:33,040
Speaker 3: down by the river and I have better internet than you.

1345
01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:39,200
Speaker 1: Speaking of the fog, I look like John.

1346
01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:41,440
Speaker 3: Daly and I have better internet than you. How is

1347
01:06:41,440 --> 01:06:42,080
Speaker 3: that possible?

1348
01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:44,720
Speaker 1: By the way, as much as you maligned Happy Gilmore too,

1349
01:06:44,800 --> 01:06:47,440
Speaker 1: you gotta give it to John Daly's performance in that movie.

1350
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:52,280
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, the third time he ate the hand sanitizer,

1351
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:56,120
Speaker 3: he overdid it. Yeah, he definitely. He definitely had a

1352
01:06:56,120 --> 01:06:57,840
Speaker 3: couple of beggars in that movie.

1353
01:06:57,920 --> 01:06:59,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, he played that role. Well, all right, fall

1354
01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:04,240
Speaker 1: Y did have some answers related to this topic overall

1355
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:07,040
Speaker 1: that we're talking about the scoring change. Here's Andy Foster

1356
01:07:07,120 --> 01:07:09,920
Speaker 1: talking to Ariel about how judges will now score a

1357
01:07:09,960 --> 01:07:10,640
Speaker 1: ten eight round.

1358
01:07:11,200 --> 01:07:13,080
Speaker 14: Said, you're the chairman of the rules committee, so this

1359
01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:16,440
Speaker 14: would fall under your jurisdiction. What are the modifications that

1360
01:07:16,480 --> 01:07:17,960
Speaker 14: are being made to the scoring criteria?

1361
01:07:18,920 --> 01:07:22,040
Speaker 10: So it's a slot modification. It's important for the public

1362
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:26,040
Speaker 10: to understand. To get a ten eight in mixed martial

1363
01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:30,480
Speaker 10: arts is now going to require significant damage. I understand

1364
01:07:30,480 --> 01:07:32,840
Speaker 10: the way that it's being scored right now. The judge

1365
01:07:32,880 --> 01:07:35,680
Speaker 10: is already scoring that way, but this is actually going

1366
01:07:36,280 --> 01:07:39,280
Speaker 10: to be in if it's if it's accepted by the body,

1367
01:07:40,160 --> 01:07:45,840
Speaker 10: And that's a relatively important change because it's going to

1368
01:07:45,960 --> 01:07:50,080
Speaker 10: actually put the word damage in the document. We've talked

1369
01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,840
Speaker 10: about it for a long time, but damage is the

1370
01:07:52,920 --> 01:07:57,280
Speaker 10: number one scoring criteria through effective striking and effective grappling.

1371
01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:02,120
Speaker 10: You've heard these other terms effective and aggressiveness, effective cage control.

1372
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:07,480
Speaker 10: These things we never get to aerial people. The public

1373
01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,960
Speaker 10: does not need to ever use the term effective aggressive,

1374
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:15,720
Speaker 10: it's or effective cage control. Really in the context of scoring.

1375
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:20,400
Speaker 10: The only thing that matters is how the techniques, through

1376
01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:25,040
Speaker 10: striking or grappling, have impacted their opponent. That's the way

1377
01:08:25,080 --> 01:08:27,719
Speaker 10: this is scored. In a ten to nine, we're putting

1378
01:08:27,760 --> 01:08:30,639
Speaker 10: out the language, a ten eight, we're putting out the language,

1379
01:08:30,640 --> 01:08:31,519
Speaker 10: and then a ten to seven.

1380
01:08:32,560 --> 01:08:34,800
Speaker 1: I think that's a good change right there across the board.

1381
01:08:34,800 --> 01:08:37,679
Speaker 1: They're still not going to score defense in mma, although

1382
01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:40,639
Speaker 1: that is part of the scoring criteria of course in boxing.

1383
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:44,800
Speaker 1: One more quick SoundBite here fosters shit on any judge

1384
01:08:45,040 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 1: who's still liking the idea of a ten ten round.

1385
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:54,639
Speaker 14: The three main criteria still are damage, dominance, and duration,

1386
01:08:54,920 --> 01:08:56,240
Speaker 14: damage being the most important.

1387
01:08:56,280 --> 01:09:00,880
Speaker 10: Right, that's correct, and it's a requirement now for a

1388
01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:01,639
Speaker 10: ten eight rown.

1389
01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:05,559
Speaker 14: Okay, what about a ten ten? Should we be seeing

1390
01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:06,080
Speaker 14: more of those?

1391
01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:08,040
Speaker 3: No?

1392
01:09:08,040 --> 01:09:11,439
Speaker 10: No, look, man, if if you watch a file for

1393
01:09:11,600 --> 01:09:14,880
Speaker 10: five minutes aial and you can't tell me who won

1394
01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 10: that five and they're and they're fighting in earnest, I'll

1395
01:09:18,320 --> 01:09:19,400
Speaker 10: find another judge.

1396
01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,440
Speaker 1: Dude, I actually agree with that completely.

1397
01:09:26,240 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 3: Oh sorry, my thing here is what the fuck? All right?

1398
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:30,559
Speaker 3: Sorry about that? I don't know what that will happen.

1399
01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:37,240
Speaker 3: I don't actually really why yeah, why is it that,

1400
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:42,639
Speaker 3: I guess I don't understand. I understand why you would

1401
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:51,000
Speaker 3: not want a judge to two It would be bad

1402
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:54,760
Speaker 3: if judges gave a lot of ten tens for the business, right,

1403
01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:57,600
Speaker 3: But I guess I don't understand. Are you telling me

1404
01:09:57,720 --> 01:10:00,920
Speaker 3: it's conceptually impossible for me to imagine that two guys

1405
01:10:00,920 --> 01:10:03,760
Speaker 3: could fight in a way where it would be basically

1406
01:10:03,800 --> 01:10:07,120
Speaker 3: not impossible to discern a difference, but reasonably difficult to

1407
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:12,200
Speaker 3: where you would almost be like ascribing value to insignificant things.

1408
01:10:12,600 --> 01:10:15,400
Speaker 3: That seems to me actually very plausible. So to me,

1409
01:10:15,560 --> 01:10:16,880
Speaker 3: the notion of like, oh, we don't want to have

1410
01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:20,320
Speaker 3: ten tens, that's an argument about like preserving the business interest,

1411
01:10:20,360 --> 01:10:22,080
Speaker 3: and fine, just make the argument like it's bad for

1412
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:24,519
Speaker 3: business to have a bunch of ten tens. But the

1413
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:28,840
Speaker 3: notion that, like, that's not a coherent way to evaluate around, don't.

1414
01:10:29,120 --> 01:10:31,000
Speaker 3: I don't understand the argument for that at all.

1415
01:10:31,280 --> 01:10:33,880
Speaker 1: I fully disagree because most of them in may fights

1416
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:36,599
Speaker 1: are three rounds. You're only scoring three rounds if one

1417
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,080
Speaker 1: of them is going to be ten ten. It's like

1418
01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:40,679
Speaker 1: I get that there's some rounds where almost nothing happens.

1419
01:10:40,680 --> 01:10:42,840
Speaker 1: And he did say right there. If the fighters are

1420
01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:46,519
Speaker 1: fighting in earnest right, but like over five minutes, not

1421
01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:48,320
Speaker 1: like boxing where it's a three minute round, and if

1422
01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:50,840
Speaker 1: it's a three minute round with very little action, I

1423
01:10:50,920 --> 01:10:54,519
Speaker 1: understand that more, even though I hate ten ten rounds

1424
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:57,160
Speaker 1: in boxing and you almost never see them because in

1425
01:10:57,240 --> 01:11:00,719
Speaker 1: most commissions they're encouraged not to do ten ten rounds.

1426
01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:04,639
Speaker 1: Even in boxing, and sometimes in boxing, almost nothing happens

1427
01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:08,240
Speaker 1: in five minutes. In an MMA fight, something's gotta happen,

1428
01:11:09,000 --> 01:11:12,120
Speaker 1: somebody's gotta win the round. And if there's any concern,

1429
01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:13,880
Speaker 1: you should have done more in the in the fight,

1430
01:11:13,920 --> 01:11:16,160
Speaker 1: in the round to try to change that, in my opinion.

1431
01:11:16,240 --> 01:11:18,920
Speaker 1: But that's that is, That is what it is, Luke.

1432
01:11:18,960 --> 01:11:21,400
Speaker 1: I think ten tents sucks. Okay, pick a winner.

1433
01:11:21,640 --> 01:11:22,599
Speaker 3: They're bad for business.

1434
01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:25,040
Speaker 1: I'll give you the defense. Get off the damn fence,

1435
01:11:25,040 --> 01:11:28,240
Speaker 1: all right. We're gonna close today with our typical Friday

1441
01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:50,200
Speaker 1: speak a lot of shad into this microphone, and sometimes

1442
01:11:50,200 --> 01:11:53,439
Speaker 1: we're factually incorrect. Sometimes we're just assholes. But if you

1443
01:11:53,479 --> 01:11:55,920
Speaker 1: can prove us wrong and you got time stamps, you

1444
01:11:56,040 --> 01:12:05,920

1457
01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:55,960
Speaker 1: dead wrong. When mentioning the oh so you're a wrestler

1458

1459
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 1: that it was free fight. How does that make any sense?

1460
01:13:03,320 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 1: He made that comment at the desk after the fight

1461
01:13:07,240 --> 01:13:10,600
Speaker 1: against Connor McGregor, when Connor shot for a takedown in

01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:21,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, fair enough.

1466
01:13:21,640 --> 01:13:24,680

Speaker 3: I am so proud of him and this is such

1485
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:38,880
Speaker 3: a great achievement. What a great amateur run he had,

1486
01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:42,200
Speaker 3: and I hope the pro side is that times ten. Also,

1487
01:14:42,320 --> 01:14:44,120
Speaker 3: there's the shmo on the left side of the screen.

1488

1490
01:14:50,400 --> 01:14:53,559
Speaker 1: Christian Daguerro of California, Luke. I hope he never signs

1491
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 1: a twelve and twelve, but I'd love to see him

1492
01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:56,840
Speaker 1: on the DWCS one day.

1493
01:14:57,080 --> 01:14:59,519
Speaker 3: I would love to see him have again. I hope

1494
01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:02,640
Speaker 3: it's as good as the amateur run and more.

1495
01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 1: All right, well done, Christian Deguerro. We're gonna have you

1496
01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:07,360
Speaker 1: on this show ahead of your pro debut. Keep up

1497
01:15:07,479 --> 01:15:10,240
Speaker 1: the great work. Our second one comes from my boy Joe,

1498
01:15:10,280 --> 01:15:13,080
Speaker 1: who calls himself Ron dem Cheeks. He says, greeting Jens,

1499
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:15,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, my wefing.

1500
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,240
Speaker 3: This guy is a marine or a former marine.

1501
01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,920
Speaker 1: He is, Yes, yes, he's a Pennsylvania guy, he says.

1502
01:15:19,920 --> 01:15:22,040
Speaker 1: My wife and I just got back from celebrating our

1503
01:15:22,040 --> 01:15:25,160
Speaker 1: honeymoon in the UK. We spent one week in London,

1504
01:15:25,240 --> 01:15:28,320
Speaker 1: one week in Scotland, and yet again the MK Bomber

1505
01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:32,519
Speaker 1: jacket proved its worth by keeping me comfortable no matter

1506
01:15:32,640 --> 01:15:34,960
Speaker 1: the weather. Here are a few photos of us in

1507
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:38,640
Speaker 1: the Highlands and Lockness. And no, my wife and I

1508
01:15:38,720 --> 01:15:41,920
Speaker 1: don't actually believe in Bigfoot. She just wore the hat

1509
01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:45,080
Speaker 1: to be ironic at Lockness. Though my father does believe

1510
01:15:45,080 --> 01:15:48,600
Speaker 1: in him and thinks he travels through dimensional portals and

1511
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:51,400
Speaker 1: he who wish you the best and thanks for all

1512
01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:54,559
Speaker 1: that you do. And side note, our tour guide said

1513
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:58,720
Speaker 1: that Scotland is rapidly losing its Spanish and Latino population

1514
01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 1: since the UK that's the EU, so let's hope Johnny

1515
01:16:02,200 --> 01:16:07,280
Speaker 1: Walker did some work to keep the population going for years.

1516
01:16:07,840 --> 01:16:08,439
Speaker 3: Luke, if you.

1517
01:16:08,479 --> 01:16:12,200
Speaker 1: Recall here Joe and Hannah, the newlyweds, and shout out

1518
01:16:12,240 --> 01:16:15,240
Speaker 1: to them. I believe Joe wore the m K bomber

1519
01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:17,479
Speaker 1: when they climbed like Mount Fuji was it? Do you

1520
01:16:17,479 --> 01:16:18,400
Speaker 1: remember that back in the day?

1521
01:16:18,880 --> 01:16:21,320
Speaker 3: I believe that's right. Yes, don't hold me to that,

1522
01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 3: but I think that's right.

1523
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:25,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, well done, there congratulations to the young couple. Thank

1524
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:28,519
Speaker 1: you for bringing MK on your life journey. I mean,

1525
01:16:28,520 --> 01:16:31,320
Speaker 1: you remember little Anthony and v they I think they

1526
01:16:31,439 --> 01:16:33,000
Speaker 1: conceived wearing MK clothing.

1527
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:37,160
Speaker 3: I think that Saoul what he bangs, his significant other

1528
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:39,400
Speaker 3: wears MK gear doing it. You know what I mean?

1529
01:16:39,640 --> 01:16:41,240
Speaker 1: He wears those m k undies with you and I

1530
01:16:41,439 --> 01:16:42,599
Speaker 1: his face against the buttle.

1531
01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, tips like tre you go.

1532
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:48,000
Speaker 1: Thank you so much, Joe. Let's go over to Kevin.

1533
01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:50,120
Speaker 1: No comment on this one. Let's see what we got here.

1534
01:16:51,640 --> 01:16:54,839
Speaker 3: Luke cut me some slack when pronouncing mateush roum beski,

1535
01:16:55,400 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 3: Luke when pronouncing that's so true. But you know, this

1536
01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:05,760
Speaker 3: is the funny part about doing this job, and I

1537
01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:07,280
Speaker 3: think you would agree with at least this part. Right.

1538
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:10,640
Speaker 3: You see, you took French in high school, right, what

1539
01:17:10,720 --> 01:17:11,679
Speaker 3: did you take in high school?

1540
01:17:11,880 --> 01:17:13,840
Speaker 1: Five years of French middle five years of French?

1541
01:17:13,880 --> 01:17:16,519
Speaker 3: Okay, So if you were requited, if someone came to

1542
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:18,160
Speaker 3: you and said, hey, we need you to like, what

1543
01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:20,759
Speaker 3: kind of language would you at least have the best

1544
01:17:21,120 --> 01:17:25,040
Speaker 3: chance of pronouncing correctly Other than English? You would probably

1545
01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:28,360
Speaker 3: say a French. The answer for me would definitely be Spanish. However,

1546
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,880
Speaker 3: limited my Spanish might be, but then the reality of

1547
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 3: this business is like, dude, You've got people from every

1548
01:17:34,160 --> 01:17:37,799
Speaker 3: fucking imaginable walk of life, and none of their names

1549
01:17:38,120 --> 01:17:40,320
Speaker 3: match up against the other ones, and the rules about

1550
01:17:40,320 --> 01:17:43,360
Speaker 3: how you pronounce it don't follow through, so you get

1551
01:17:43,439 --> 01:17:45,560
Speaker 3: like one kind of lane where you can kind of

1552
01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:48,200
Speaker 3: you know, and then everything else you sound like a

1553
01:17:48,280 --> 01:17:50,000
Speaker 3: fucking idiot peasant. You know what I mean?

1554
01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:50,760
Speaker 5: Is it?

1555
01:17:53,760 --> 01:17:55,360
Speaker 3: I fucked that one up every time?

Speaker 3: Oh he big this one up on social Let's see.

1615
01:20:49,880 --> 01:20:51,880
Speaker 1: He says, what does it say about me that, while

1616
01:20:51,960 --> 01:20:54,080
Speaker 1: on a morning walk with my dogs listening to m K,

1617
01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:56,639
Speaker 1: I hear one of the many many references to Luke's

1618
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:00,560
Speaker 1: enormous bowel movements, then proceed to watch a Jaws documentary

1619
01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:03,479
Speaker 1: later in the day, and something in my brain clips

1620
01:21:03,600 --> 01:21:06,439
Speaker 1: that clicks, that says, Yep, that's it. I want to

1621
01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:10,479
Speaker 1: introduce you both to the next summer blockbuster. It's called Breach,

1622
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:17,400
Speaker 1: Holy shit Balls. It also probably says a lot about

1623
01:21:17,439 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 1: me that I thought a lot about how to properly

1624
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:23,800
Speaker 1: render a shark shaped turd. Initially, everything was in full

1625
01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:25,720
Speaker 1: color and the water looked a lot closer to how

1626
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:29,240
Speaker 1: you'd expect the toilet following one of LT's great accomplishments.

1627
01:21:29,479 --> 01:21:31,280
Speaker 1: Maybe that was a little bit too much. I hope

1628
01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:35,360
Speaker 1: the various nuggets and blood specs come across as well

1629
01:21:35,439 --> 01:21:39,040
Speaker 1: as Captain Lee. Yeah. I wanted this to be very simple,

1630
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,800
Speaker 1: but very effective. What does that say? Can you read that? Look?

1631
01:21:41,840 --> 01:21:42,240
Speaker 1: I can't.

1632

1663
01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:08,439
Speaker 1: without a chaser this time?

1664
01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:12,040
Speaker 3: I will definitely get into it. I will not do

1665
01:23:12,080 --> 01:23:14,240
Speaker 3: it without a chaser. I like my little system.

1666
01:23:14,680 --> 01:23:17,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's the thing about the Devil's reserve and

1667
01:23:17,439 --> 01:23:19,200
Speaker 1: I don't know seated. Did you shoot that in the end?

1668
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:20,000
Speaker 1: You shot it right?

1669
01:23:20,120 --> 01:23:21,679
Speaker 3: Yeah? It was delicious, dude.

1670
01:23:21,720 --> 01:23:24,360
Speaker 1: It tastes like like spicy water. It was amazing.

1671
01:23:24,680 --> 01:23:26,320
Speaker 3: Yes, it does it. I mean, don't get me wrong,

1672
01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:29,680
Speaker 3: it's phenomenal. But like the argument for those it's like, oh,

1673
01:23:29,800 --> 01:23:31,280
Speaker 3: you can have it like a shot, because it's easy

1674
01:23:31,320 --> 01:23:33,839
Speaker 3: to have it like a shot. True, But the reality

1675
01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:35,920
Speaker 3: is the things that are easy to shoot like that

1676
01:23:36,680 --> 01:23:38,519
Speaker 3: are also good for making cocktails.

1677
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:38,640
Speaker 2: No.

1678
01:23:38,720 --> 01:23:40,960
Speaker 3: Granted, I'm putting it in fucking mountain dew, so it's

1679
01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:45,080
Speaker 3: not like I'm some mixologist, but it works both ways.
