Feel like we're already racing 31 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 8: the clock. One thing I was asking Cody though, before 32 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 8: we came on the air, I drank some of Bruce 33 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 8: Buffer's new whiskey Puncher's Chance over the weekend, and I 34 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:44,679 Speaker 8: was wearing my hat. I might as well just do 35 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 8: this on the air. So I'm wearing my hat, like 36 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,160 Speaker 8: covering my eyebrows like this, Okay. So I just had 37 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 8: backwards at on him drinking bourbon right promoting Puncher's Chance, 38 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 8: And it seemed like there were more comments on the 39 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 8: video about my hack covering up my eye brows than 40 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 8: there were on the whiskey or the bourbon. So, I mean, Cody, 41 00:02:05,840 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 8: you what you were born in nineteen ninety one? Three, 42 00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 8: So nineteen ninety three, So like, what's the problem with 43 00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:15,079 Speaker 8: me covering up my eyebrows? It's comfortable. I'm not thinking 44 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 8: about my eyebrows. Seems like a lot of other people 45 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,480 Speaker 8: think about thinking about my eyebrows. 46 00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,080 Speaker 10: It's a fucking New England thing, kid, That's all I 47 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:22,600 Speaker 10: gotta say. 48 00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 8: Maybe it is well, I hope it doesn't distract people. 49 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 8: During today's episode, but Below the Belt with Brennan Shab 50 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 8: I've been seeing kentl on that show a lot lately. 51 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, we did a little bit, talked a little boxing, 52 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 9: talked some UFC of course, and yeah, shop shops always fund. 53 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:40,799 Speaker 1: I like that. 54 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 8: I'm always watching what you're doing. I like to do it, 55 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 8: dabble with a little boxing. You know, Boxing for me 56 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 8: is really a tough sell these days with all the 57 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 8: holding and everything else. You know, a few pay per 58 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 8: views a year, but mixed martial arts has ruined baseball 59 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 8: for me, right, can't watch baseball, can't watch in it 60 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,280 Speaker 8: bat and boxing as well. 61 00:02:59,400 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: We're promoting the anam Florian podcast when we're going on 62 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: on Below the Belt. Yeah exactly. We do talk about 63 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: it actually every while. Yeah, yea. 64 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 8: So there is so much to get into, and I 65 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 8: feel like I should just give you three hundred seconds, 66 00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:14,520 Speaker 8: right five minutes right now to rip on Israel, lot 67 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 8: of sonia, but he is the undisputed UFC Midway champion. 68 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,920 Speaker 1: He's twenty to zero and mixed martial arts. 69 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,760 Speaker 8: You know, Joe Rogan said he's the most sophisticated striker 70 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 8: in the sport Right now, I'm not sure how you 71 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,240 Speaker 8: could argue otherwise it was super dominant. There's plenty to 72 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,280 Speaker 8: get to on Costa and some of his indifference, if 73 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 8: you will, But all praise to the still champion Israel 74 00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 8: a lot of sonia, and you called it almost to 75 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 8: a tea. 76 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 9: You know, I don't want to tell all of our 77 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 9: listeners I told you so, but you know what, listen now, 78 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 9: I think he's been showing the fact that he's been 79 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,720 Speaker 9: one of the most sophisticated strikers that we've ever seen 80 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 9: in the octagon for. 81 00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:46,320 Speaker 1: Some time now. 82 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 9: His intelligence and his ability to hit and not get 83 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 9: hit is on a completely different level. His footwork, his 84 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 9: ability to not get taken down just based on his 85 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 9: distance management is something you don't see too often with 86 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 9: guys who come from a strictly striking background. So this 87 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,040 Speaker 9: is a guy that has matured previously to getting into 88 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 9: the UFC and has only gotten better since getting into 89 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 9: the UFC. So I've been really high on Israel out 90 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 9: of Sonya. The guy's an absolute gangster. 91 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 1: And for Paula A. 92 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 9: Costa, I think, listen, he was a guy that a 93 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,320 Speaker 9: lot of people were excited about, why because he looked 94 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,279 Speaker 9: the part. However, skill wise he just didn't have it. 95 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,840 Speaker 1: Does it mean that he's not a good fighter. 96 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 9: No, it just means that Israel out of Sonya just 97 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 9: as a few different levels above someone like Costa. 98 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 8: And I think that it comes sound to the skills though, 99 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 8: because for Paulo Costa this was such a listless and 100 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 8: surprising performance. And we're not done on israelata Sonia, I 101 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 8: can promise you that. But you know, Costa trains too much, Kenny, right, 102 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 8: he wants this too badly, right Like hunger is the 103 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 8: least of his problems, and I think that's part of 104 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 8: the issue. He has wanted this so badly from such 105 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,840 Speaker 8: a young age. I just don't understand the hands behind 106 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 8: them back, and I certainly think that is he probably 107 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 8: caused some of his issues, right, I mean, you're in 108 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 8: there without aside. You gotta be careful, you know, But 109 00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 8: I don't know, man, I mean he landed I mean, 110 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 8: is he literally I was more beat up after the 111 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 8: broadcast than is. 112 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 9: He was being in the fight. Well, I tell you what, Listen, 113 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,840 Speaker 9: I think there's a lot of truth to that. I 114 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 9: know that I have made some mistakes with overtraining. I 115 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 9: certainly did that in the BJ pen fight. Got way 116 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,839 Speaker 9: too excited and you know, just didn't feel like I 117 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 9: was myself on fight night. That that can happen. But 118 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 9: more than anything else, I think that skill wise he. 119 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 1: Needs to improve. 120 00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:40,880 Speaker 9: He was just very confused and didn't have an answer 121 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 9: for that long frame and those light kicks. 122 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 1: Of course, from Israel to Sonia. 123 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:47,599 Speaker 9: The other thing I think that he was kind of 124 00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 9: plagued with is a lot of times you kind of 125 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 9: you get a certain narrative, and this probably came from 126 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 9: someone outside of himself, where you go, all right, skill wise, 127 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 9: I'm outgunned. How do I get to Israel Asnya? How 128 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 9: do I get him off his game? I'm gonna play 129 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 9: a bunch of head games. I'm gonna act like I'm 130 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,719 Speaker 9: not heard, I'm gonna talk a lot of trash. 131 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw a white belt his way. 132 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 9: All these things had nothing to do with the fight itself. 133 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 9: On fight night, and I think he thought it was 134 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 9: gonna rattle lot of. 135 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,240 Speaker 1: Sonya and it just simply did not. 136 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 8: Right, So if you're fighting is for a lot of sonya, 137 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 8: here's what I'd recommend. Okay, try to get him in 138 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 8: Vegas in the twenty five footer right now in this 139 00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 8: climate for starters, don't give that athlete thirty feet to 140 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:26,919 Speaker 8: dick around with you. 141 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: But don't you have to wrestle? Don't you have to clinch? 142 00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 8: And I think if you're Palo Costa, you ain't trying 143 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 8: to beat this guy over twenty five minutes, right, I 144 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 8: think he was trying to preserve Cardio. What are you 145 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 8: trying to beat this guy for twenty five minutes for 146 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 8: you know, it's still a TKO loss. 147 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 1: You don't want to be twitching on the canvas, you know. 148 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 8: I love Palo Costa if you can't tell, you know, 149 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 8: I was just expecting that there would be a better 150 00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 8: championship performance. I know matchup wise, you and every sharp 151 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,160 Speaker 8: out there thought he was so up against it. But uh, 152 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:57,159 Speaker 8: I don't know, man. I guess for me, it's like, 153 00:06:57,680 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 8: why change your stripes when you get there? Why don't 154 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:01,600 Speaker 8: you just go fucking try to knock his head off, 155 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 8: and either way it's a t k A loss in 156 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 8: round one, as you called it around too. 157 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know, you know, just a fans 158 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: view that's very ignorant or what. 159 00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 6: No. 160 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 9: I think that that's you know, it's something that I 161 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 9: think a lot of people expected. You know, when you 162 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 9: see a guy in Paula Costa and he faced a 163 00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 9: juggernaut and Yo Romero and really didn't take any steps 164 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 9: backwards at all. 165 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 1: He was always in Romero's face. 166 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 9: I think a lot of us expected that same kind 167 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 9: of style against Israel a Sonya. I think that there 168 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,960 Speaker 9: were probably moments where he wanted to do that, but 169 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,680 Speaker 9: Anasania is a fucking computer man. 170 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: He's so good at reading you. 171 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:41,280 Speaker 9: Every time Costa wanted to come forward, Israel was fainting 172 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,520 Speaker 9: or kicking the shit out of that lead leg, and 173 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 9: Cossa just didn't have an answer for that. So I 174 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 9: think that, yes, he was probably a little bit more 175 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 9: cautious in his approach than previous performances. I'm not sure 176 00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 9: that would have helped necessarily. Again, you only know by 177 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:03,120 Speaker 9: trying it, but I think it would have. It probably 178 00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 9: would have ended maybe a little bit quicker, it's possible, 179 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 9: but also it could have allowed him to at least 180 00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 9: land some shots at Anasnia I think Paulocausta. 181 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: Again, I don't know. 182 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 9: What the numbers said, but for me looking from the 183 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 9: outside in, it looked like he landed maybe three or 184 00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,040 Speaker 9: four leg kicks and that was it. Like, I don't 185 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 9: think he touched him with his hand once in the face, 186 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 9: not one, right, And again that has to do with 187 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 9: Attu Sani's ability to read his opponents, his ability to 188 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 9: gauge distance, and that six foot four frame, right, he 189 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 9: is six foot four or something like that, right, So 190 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,320 Speaker 9: I don't know if that's all, but yeah, yeah, but 191 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 9: whatever it is, right, big reach advantage. 192 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, So that's interesting because he did not have 193 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 8: a scratch on him right, getting up in his face 194 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,120 Speaker 8: after the fight, barely sweating. So I want to know 195 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 8: what you are most impressed with in terms of Atta 196 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 8: Sannian's brilliance on the feed, and while you chew on that, 197 00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 8: I just want to sort of highlight Eugene Beharman because 198 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 8: Bill Belichick, head coach of the New England Patriots in 199 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 8: the NFL. A lot of our international listeners may not 200 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 8: know that name, but Google, Bill Belichick ubiquitously guard is 201 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 8: the greatest coach in professional sports history, certainly in America, 202 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 8: and Eugene Barman, I believe, is separating himself from a 203 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,480 Speaker 8: pack of elite mixed martial arts coaches. I hate to 204 00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 8: sit here and say he's the best coach at MMA Kenny, 205 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 8: but look what they have done, you know. I mean, 206 00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 8: you can say they didn't beat Max Holloway twice, but 207 00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 8: you know they beat Max Holloway twice. They have the 208 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 8: UFC featherweight champion. They have Brad Riddell, who looks like 209 00:09:23,080 --> 00:09:25,640 Speaker 8: on any given Saturday night he can compete with elite lightweights. 210 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,560 Speaker 8: Right now, Ottes Sign and all these guys give him 211 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 8: credit every step of the way. I don't know, man, 212 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:34,720 Speaker 8: I think this guy is brilliant, you know, borderline genius, 213 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 8: and the best coach in mixed martial arts is right 214 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 8: now and starting to distance himself a little bit. 215 00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 1: I mean, can you. 216 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 9: Create a powerhouse team and an island that is not 217 00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 9: really well known without being a phenomenal coach and without 218 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 9: doing things differently? I think that, at the end of 219 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:57,960 Speaker 9: the day, is what separates the elite martial artists from 220 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,680 Speaker 9: other martial artists, other minds, and other people are doing things. 221 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: You know, when you get other people that. 222 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 9: Are kind of following what everyone else is doing, as 223 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 9: opposed to someone who's thinking out of the box and 224 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:13,959 Speaker 9: approaching fights with different takes, different perspectives, different techniques, that 225 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 9: is always going to be more difficult to deal with. 226 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 9: So I think, you know, again, Eugene Barman, my Coach 227 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 9: of the Year last year here on the. 228 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: Podcast, how do you not get it? 229 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 8: So you gotta be a nice guy and give it 230 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 8: to someone else? I mean, right now we're sitting here 231 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 8: September twenty eighth, how somebody take that aword from him 232 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 8: over the final three months. 233 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 1: I guess that's what I'm saying. 234 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, No, absolutely, man, I think he's he's my top choice. 235 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 9: Yet again, I think that he's doing tremendous work with 236 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:42,559 Speaker 9: all the guys over there. You know, Israel Desanya is 237 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 9: relatively quickly running out of opponents here in this division 238 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:51,880 Speaker 9: which was absolutely stacked. So yeah, phenomena. And what did 239 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 9: you ask about out to. 240 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: Sania in terms of him on the feet? 241 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:56,559 Speaker 5: Right? Like? What is it that? 242 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:57,439 Speaker 1: I mean? 243 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 8: I hear a lot of words and faints and trapped 244 00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 8: and angles and distance. But what is most impressive to 245 00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 8: you about how easy he you know, makes it look. 246 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 9: You know, listen, I think when I was competing, more 247 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 9: than trying to win, I think I was looking for 248 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 9: the cleanest of performances. You know, if you're thinking about, 249 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 9: you know, a military operation or you're some kind of 250 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 9: high level operation, you want to go in with your men, 251 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 9: you want to kill, get the thing that you need 252 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 9: to get, get the hell out, and make sure that 253 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:31,560 Speaker 9: no one dies. 254 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:33,960 Speaker 1: That's the key. It's not like, all right, I got. 255 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 9: The hostage, but nineteen of our twenty guys died. That's 256 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:41,920 Speaker 9: not a good operation. Israel Asanya went in there clean, 257 00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 9: like an assassin. Killed the dude, snuck in, snuck out, 258 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 9: got his check, and got the hell out of there 259 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 9: without a scratch on him. 260 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,760 Speaker 1: That is an elite martial artist. That is the difference. 261 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 9: It's not about beating your opponent, it's how you do it. 262 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,760 Speaker 1: And that dude is an assassin. He's a ninja period. 263 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 8: It's crazy, and it'd be nice to have a long 264 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 8: conversation with him and developmentally talk about where he was 265 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 8: in Perth in February of twenty eighteen when he made 266 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:10,960 Speaker 8: his UFC debut relative to where he is right now. 267 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 8: Crazy because other than Connor McGregor, right, other than Conra McGregor, nobody, 268 00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:17,560 Speaker 8: in my mind, I'm sure there are one or two 269 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 8: other examples has become a first ballot Hall of Famer 270 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 8: inside of three years making their UFC debut, you know 271 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 8: what I mean? Like Sahudo obviously did everything you could 272 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 8: possibly accomplish in the sport, but it took him longer 273 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:31,959 Speaker 8: to do that than Israel out of Sonya. Now is 274 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 8: he has defended this belt. He hasn't in a second division, 275 00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 8: but he's defended it, you know, and taken out big 276 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 8: names that seemingly people would not really want to fight 277 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 8: if they wouldn't have to. It's absolutely incredible. And now 278 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 8: he wants Jared Cannoneer, who looks like the most dangerous 279 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 8: guy right now. And at this point, everybody who said 280 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 8: that out of Sania minus one forty was a steel. 281 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:54,400 Speaker 8: I mean, he'll probably be a three to one favorite 282 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 8: now against Cannoneir. The value on ATTASNYA, I can assure 283 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 8: you expired this weekend for good. 284 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: I have a lot of respect for. 285 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 9: Guys like Cannoneer, Whittaker, all those guys, I don't know. 286 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,640 Speaker 9: I don't see anyone really challenging him for the next 287 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 9: year or so or until maybe Hamzat Chimayav matures as 288 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 9: a fighter that how to get to that, you know. 289 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:17,400 Speaker 1: So that gets me excited. 290 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 9: And I think with two of those guys colliding eventually 291 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 9: and that narrative as far as opposing styles and the 292 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:28,920 Speaker 9: way that they both have really emerged from kind of nowhere, 293 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 9: I think that gets me excited. That gets a lot 294 00:13:31,800 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 9: of other fans excited. I'm not trying to say that 295 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 9: he's ready right now and that's the fight we should see. 296 00:13:36,960 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 9: I'm saying this is the trajectory that you know, the 297 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,480 Speaker 9: way it's heading. I think that's the fight that ultimately 298 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,679 Speaker 9: is going to be an absolute banger. 299 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 8: Cody, while we're talking, please look up the UFC Midway 300 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,559 Speaker 8: Top fifteen and then tell me who you think is 301 00:13:49,600 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 8: the best wrestler in that eighty five pound division. So 302 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,080 Speaker 8: Shane Young on embedded was watching Israel lot of Sonia 303 00:13:57,120 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 8: and you were watching organic reactions from his teammates Ken 304 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,400 Speaker 8: and they're like, oh my God, like this dude can 305 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 8: do that now, Like man paul A Costa might be 306 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,120 Speaker 8: in some real trouble this weekend, you know what, I 307 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 8: just he's not getting worse. 308 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:09,200 Speaker 11: Man. 309 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,839 Speaker 8: He is so special in every sense, and for our viewers, 310 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 8: I will say, I just came home to this. You know, 311 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 8: he's the cover boy obviously in EA Sports UFC four 312 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 8: and certainly no EA curse, as he so eloquently put 313 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 8: it over the weekend. I will also say, too, and 314 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 8: if people think that I'm being paid to do this 315 00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 8: or this is a pr stint stunt, it's not that. 316 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 8: But you know, to watch him walk back to our 317 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 8: cabin and give up his first class seat to one 318 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,160 Speaker 8: of his coaches, that's what it's all about, too. And 319 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 8: yet people want to sort of fine fault with that 320 00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 8: for some reason. You know, he did it out of 321 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 8: the goodness of his heart. You know, perhaps if both 322 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,520 Speaker 8: his eyes were shut and it was a five round war, 323 00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 8: maybe he'd need the extra space. 324 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 325 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 8: He's a good dude, an acquired taste for some One 326 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 8: of the greatest celebration slash entrances I've ever seen was 327 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,000 Speaker 8: what he made is UFC debut, and he sort of 328 00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:59,800 Speaker 8: pissed all over the octagon. You know, I mean, I 329 00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 8: just I understand some of what he did this weekend 330 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:05,400 Speaker 8: put people off, but uh, I don't know. Man, I 331 00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 8: think he's uh, he's having fun and uh he has 332 00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 8: elevated to greatness in a in a rapid way. 333 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: You know. 334 00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 9: I think he certainly has that showman quality to him. 335 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 9: And I also think that if you want to be 336 00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:21,120 Speaker 9: a nasty prick and be at the top of the division, 337 00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,360 Speaker 9: you need a little bit of that kind of fuck you. Uh, 338 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 9: you need need just enough of that. But I also 339 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 9: think you need that humility, and I think he balances 340 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 9: it well. 341 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 1: And you could see that. 342 00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 9: Whether again, you know, what, is he trying to pull 343 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,200 Speaker 9: a pr stunt on a freaking plane with you know, 344 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 9: however many people that are on there. 345 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: You know, No, he's not that. That's legitimately who he is. 346 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 9: And I think, you know, having the humility to say, 347 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 9: you know what, coach, you're the man. 348 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: You sit here, Let me go to the back. 349 00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 9: I got I got a nice place to stay at 350 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 9: back in New Zealand. 351 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 1: I'll be just fine. 352 00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:55,680 Speaker 9: You chill, you relax, And and at the same time, 353 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 9: he will get pissed off if you try to disrespect him. 354 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 9: He's gonna disrespect you back. And it's also kind of 355 00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 9: a little sign and a note to everybody else in 356 00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 9: that division. You want to talk shit, yeah, you better 357 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 9: be ready for careful Yeah. 358 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:12,520 Speaker 8: And I will also say about both headlining athletes. I 359 00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 8: guess when you get closer to these guys and then 360 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 8: you see the perception that they're both super arrogant, not 361 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:21,240 Speaker 8: good guys, it sort of bothers you more. Right, because 362 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,000 Speaker 8: Paolo is so gracious talking about giving our producer Lappy 363 00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 8: a shirt, you know in our fighter meeting, right, It's 364 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,359 Speaker 8: like that's who he is. And Anasanya is just deflecting 365 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 8: and putting over everybody around him all the time. So 366 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 8: I just hope that that fans will listen to the 367 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 8: show at least, you know, and understand that they're two 368 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 8: really good eggs there in the main event. Yan Bohovich, Man, 369 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 8: Yon fucking Bohovich was two and four in the UFC 370 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 8: in twenty seventeen. He's thirty seven years old, he's got 371 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 8: his first kid coming in December, and he is the 372 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 8: second champion out of Poland. He's the undisputed UFC light 373 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,320 Speaker 8: heavyweight champion. I mean, this is what else can you say? 374 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 8: Plus two twenty. I think plus three thirty range as 375 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 8: a knockout winner over the weekend look pretty live to me. 376 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: What did you think of Yanbohovich? 377 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 9: I have a feeling that he busted a lot of 378 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 9: parlays over the weekend. 379 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: I tell you what to listen. He's always been extremely tough. 380 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 9: He's got a great chin, he hits really hard, he's 381 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,760 Speaker 9: good on the ground, and I think he's quietly put 382 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,160 Speaker 9: himself into this position. 383 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:22,639 Speaker 1: And I don't think a lot of people expected. 384 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:25,920 Speaker 9: Him to win in this fashion against someone like Rays, 385 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 9: who has done obviously so well in this division. But man, 386 00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 9: I mean, boy, does he look the part of a 387 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 9: fighter as well when he walks out there. And I 388 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,919 Speaker 9: thought his ability to balance his blitzing attacks with you know, 389 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:43,840 Speaker 9: sharp combinations and backing Rays up and confusing him there 390 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 9: throwing those body kicks. I think it really frustrated Race 391 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 9: early on, I thought Rays. I think Rays probably thought 392 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 9: he was gonna have an easier time with him and 393 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,439 Speaker 9: was going to kind of cruise in the early rounds 394 00:17:56,480 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 9: and then take him out later in the fight, and 395 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:01,359 Speaker 9: that just wasn't the case. I think Ray started feeling 396 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 9: the pressure of being down around here and too, you know, 397 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,719 Speaker 9: a round or two down and feeling like he had 398 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 9: to do something and then got caught. 399 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: Man. 400 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 9: But dude, I mean, how about that nosebreak. That is 401 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 9: one of the worst nose breaks I've ever seen. Uh, 402 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,760 Speaker 9: it was nasty, and from there the fight was essentially over. 403 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 9: But uh, great to see a guy, an underdog in 404 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 9: Bohovich get a win like that over a really good 405 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 9: athlete and fighter in Rays. And you know, we we've 406 00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 9: injected a new conversation in that division. And man, what 407 00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 9: a fight, what a win. 408 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:36,760 Speaker 8: So to make you feel better about the nose, he actually, 409 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 8: at least at first, put it back in place himself. 410 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 8: And I saw him at breakfast, so oh but no, 411 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 8: he just he said, Yan just fought an awesome fight. 412 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 8: And I'm telling you, when we sat down with Wohovich, 413 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 8: it was like ballgame. I mean, with respect to Rays, 414 00:18:51,880 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 8: you know, Ray is just you know, and I say this. 415 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 1: With all due respect, but I think he would have 416 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: liked to have. 417 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 8: More time to prepare than six weeks for a championship fight, 418 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 8: and hard to blame him. But when I brought that 419 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 8: up with Yan, he said, you know, it sounds an 420 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 8: awful lot like an excuse to me and Yan just 421 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 8: Yan was just ready to go, man. Like you mentioned 422 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,359 Speaker 8: the walk, and it crystallizes everything for me. It's like fighters, fighter, 423 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 8: been there, done that, you know. Dominic Grayce was fifteen 424 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:17,800 Speaker 8: years old when he made his pro debut. And I 425 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 8: also think too, these fight environments, certain fighters really end 426 00:19:22,400 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 8: up shining and certain fighters don't. 427 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 1: Right, It's totally. 428 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,000 Speaker 8: Different Ken flow than walking out at the fucking TD 429 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 8: Garden to fight Gray Maynard right when Bruins Jersey's everywhere 430 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:33,080 Speaker 8: and everyone's shouting. 431 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: Can flow Yan walking out in this environment? I don't know. 432 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 8: I think guys sometimes need the crowd to sort of 433 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 8: be like all right, man, you know, to put you know, 434 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 8: because Grace's biggest criticism of himself was that he didn't 435 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 8: pull the trigger, and I think when the crowds there 436 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,440 Speaker 8: sometimes guys have less an issue pulling the trigger. 437 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: I don't know, I agree with that. 438 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:53,880 Speaker 9: I think that definitely is a factor, and obviously that's 439 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,119 Speaker 9: going to differ based on what kind of fighter it is. 440 00:19:57,160 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 9: You know, what kind of fighter they are and kind 441 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 9: of what gets them going. But yeah, I think Raise 442 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,800 Speaker 9: might have been a little overconfidentending to that one. And 443 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,199 Speaker 9: again perhaps he didn't have the camp that he wanted, 444 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,800 Speaker 9: but let's not take away what Bohovich did and what 445 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:11,960 Speaker 9: kind of skills he has. 446 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: Man, that dude is tough. 447 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 9: And if I'm a director or a casting director or 448 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 9: something like, go get that dude and make him a 449 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:20,320 Speaker 9: scary guy. 450 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 1: In a movie like quickly. Like he is like the 451 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,480 Speaker 1: perfect dude. 452 00:20:23,760 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 9: He just looks like a fighter, Like if he's walking 453 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 9: down the street, that's not the dude you want to, 454 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 9: you know, push like he just he has that aura 455 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 9: about him. He looks like he's, you know, from a 456 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,560 Speaker 9: family of warriors for centuries, so he definitely has that 457 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 9: in his blood. 458 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 1: And it was a tremendous performance. Dude. 459 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 8: I told him I was glad I married into a 460 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 8: Polish family. But you're absolutely right. I think you just 461 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 8: made him some money. Maybe you can push out a 462 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 8: tweet to that effect and we can try to get 463 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:48,320 Speaker 8: the ball rolling on that. 464 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: And he speaks English in. 465 00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,439 Speaker 8: A very intimidating way if he has to, you know, 466 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 8: but I love too that like he ain't bringing the 467 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,919 Speaker 8: belt to breakfast, like if I and we're all eating together. 468 00:20:57,960 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: That's why I keep bringing up breakfast. 469 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 8: But if I had just won the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship. 470 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,000 Speaker 8: What John Jones had that thing for what seemed like 471 00:21:06,040 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 8: my whole lifetime. I wouldn't leave it in my room 472 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 8: to chance at the w Hotel in Abu Dhabi, bring 473 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 8: it to breakfast. 474 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:12,679 Speaker 5: You know. 475 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:15,640 Speaker 1: I don't care about the belt. You know, doesn't care. 476 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,679 Speaker 8: Absolutely amazing, and yet the first thing out of his 477 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 8: mouth is not like this is the greatest moment of 478 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 8: my life. All he's thinking about is John Jones, And 479 00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 8: I think it's that type of competitiveness that is obviously 480 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:26,680 Speaker 8: going to serve him well as champion. 481 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: It's not going to be John Jones, unfortunately. 482 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 8: I think for jan And it'll be Glover to Share 483 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 8: or Thiago Santos. Thiago Santos, I think is very interesting. 484 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 8: They fought once before and had trained together since, so 485 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 8: a lot of familiarity there. And I'm telling you right now, 486 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 8: if the Glover to Share that beat Anthony Smith, shows 487 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 8: up against Thiago Santos, then that guy's probably going to 488 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 8: challenge for the belt because that Glover was the best 489 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 8: Glover I have ever seen. And if he put another 490 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,159 Speaker 8: training camp on top of that one. I'm interested in 491 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 8: this division, you know, This is exciting. 492 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,600 Speaker 1: To me, you know, I agree. Listen. 493 00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 9: I think Glover looked fantastic his last fight. I think 494 00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,200 Speaker 9: he fought with the passion that we had not seen 495 00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,600 Speaker 9: or I hadn't seen in a little while. And with 496 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:11,840 Speaker 9: Thiago Santos coming back, I mean, obviously he's got a 497 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:15,200 Speaker 9: knockout win, right.

But in 666 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 8: terms of the team chemistry, Kenny, you have a lot 667 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 8: of these like mini dynasties in MMA, and these guys 668 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 8: it's like a little dynasty going on right now. 669 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: They're doing great, listen. 670 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,240 Speaker 9: I think that it was a combination of Israel outis 671 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 9: Sonia just being I think at a different level of 672 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:47,080 Speaker 9: skilled in paul A Costa, but also paul A Costa again, 673 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 9: it seemed like he had an off night and was 674 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 9: more focused on trying to get inside out of Sonia's 675 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 9: head than actually trying to fight, and that was that 676 00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 9: was a major problem. You know, if you're getting kicked 677 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 9: in the leg and saying, oh, that didn't hurt. You 678 00:29:58,320 --> 00:30:00,000 Speaker 9: get kicked in the body, that didn't hurt, your kicked 679 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,240 Speaker 9: the face that didn't hurt. 680 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: What's your game plan? What are you trying to do? So, yeah, no, 681 00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 1: you're not there to be a body bag. 682 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 9: And yeah, I think that as far as a team 683 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 9: over there, I think they're doing a phenomenal job, you know, 684 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 9: and they're they're gonna be tough to beat. 685 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:17,600 Speaker 1: All those guys are killers. 686 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,080 Speaker 5: Out of doubt, and again, you know, when do you 687 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 5: go when do when does the words code red come 688 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 5: into your head? Where listen, you're getting beat anyway, you 689 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,760 Speaker 5: might as well go for it. Nobody will imagine if 690 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 5: he went for it traded and he got like that, 691 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 5: there's no harm done this way. It just looks I 692 00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:41,960 Speaker 5: don't know, man, I mean, I just Dad was really confusing. 693 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,040 Speaker 8: That's exactly what I said Ray off the top of 694 00:30:44,080 --> 00:30:47,160 Speaker 8: the show in so many words about Paolo Costa, Right, Uh, 695 00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 8: why not go out sort of the way you got 696 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 8: to that championship opportunity by just being a killer, you know, 697 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:57,000 Speaker 8: And I think the sports books had to get absolutely killed. 698 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 8: I mean, Ken Flow was front and center on it, 699 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 8: obviously on our show. But like every single sharp mind 700 00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,160 Speaker 8: out there that I talked to love Dota Sonya minus 701 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 8: one forty five. He closed minus one seventy five. You know, 702 00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 8: it's like my twin brothers placing big bets on. I mean, 703 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 8: everybody love Dotta Sonya, and yet I'm closer to it 704 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 8: than most of those people. Uh, And I thought it, Yeah, 705 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 8: I mean, what the fuck do I know? 706 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 707 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 8: I just I really feel like when I look at 708 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,720 Speaker 8: this Middleway top fifteen, that Ottasanya beats most of these 709 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,520 Speaker 8: guys eight out of ten times. And I think most 710 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,320 Speaker 8: people think Chris Widman is the guy in this one 711 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 8: hundred and eighty five pound of vision, Like who's the best. 712 00:31:30,800 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 1: Wrestler at eighty five? 713 00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:32,040 Speaker 5: Ray? 714 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 8: Right, go look at the top fifteen. This is not 715 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 8: a division that is is drunk with great wrestlers. And 716 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,240 Speaker 8: I'm just not sure how you're gonna outstrike this guy consistently, 717 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 8: like and then you gotta beat him twice, right rematch 718 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 8: clause Like best of luck beating this guy twice if 719 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 8: you're a kickboxer right now. 720 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:46,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, and I thought, you know what's funny. I don't 721 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 5: know why I was doing a podcast, but we had 722 00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:53,760 Speaker 5: Yanni to greet excuse me, Yanni to Greek on right, 723 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 5: did he break that d you know? He he says 724 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,960 Speaker 5: he doesn't even look at the names of who's fighting. 725 00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 5: He just goes by this stance and then whatever comes 726 00:32:02,200 --> 00:32:04,320 Speaker 5: up good, he just matches it to the name. So 727 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 5: he was fascinating to talk to. I thought he did 728 00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 5: a great Druman. Obviously he had out of Soignia in 729 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:11,280 Speaker 5: that so big. 730 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,920 Speaker 1: No, he was very convicted in his selection. 731 00:32:14,560 --> 00:32:17,200 Speaker 8: I think there are different ways to approach MMA handicapping, 732 00:32:17,240 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 8: but certainly Yanni actually got his start on this podcast 733 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:21,040 Speaker 8: before going to the UFC. 734 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 1: On the line. Yeah, he was one of. 735 00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 8: Our resident handicap Yeah, he's a good dude, Andrew, and 736 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 8: he's had a great year handicapping. So in terms of 737 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 8: the weight things, since you brought it up, if I 738 00:32:32,920 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 8: may so, we had two athletes this weekend, Zubera to 739 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 8: Hugov and Ludavit Klein, competing at featherweight and they both 740 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:43,120 Speaker 8: weighed one hundred and fifty pounds now, two separate cases, 741 00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:44,720 Speaker 8: and I know is thera. A lot of SNI sort 742 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 8: of took issue with both of those cases for different things. 743 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 8: One fighter maybe having the resources he thinks to make 744 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 8: the number. Ludovit Klein is the first Slovakian fighter in 745 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 8: UFC history. He got the call on short notice, right, 746 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 8: But I do believe in this climate, and I hate 747 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 8: to generalize, but short notice fighters right should be ready 748 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 8: to make weight. Everybody's trying to barge the door down 749 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 8: right now in the UFC. So to miss by that 750 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,920 Speaker 8: much for a ludle of bit Klin I didn't think 751 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,560 Speaker 8: was a great look. And then of course you get 752 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 8: the head kick knockout on Atasania's teammate. I think we're 753 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,800 Speaker 8: all aligned right that the penalty does not at all 754 00:33:16,840 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 8: fit the crime right now, and it's nice to see 755 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,320 Speaker 8: a high profile athlete like it is. 756 00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: He verbalized that. 757 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, no, no, he looked you could see it was 758 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,239 Speaker 5: coming from his heart, and he was passionate about it 759 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:29,320 Speaker 5: because I think he felt bad for his teammate. But look, 760 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,520 Speaker 5: one way you could do it, to forget about even 761 00:33:31,560 --> 00:33:34,720 Speaker 5: the penalties, is that if you got a last minute fight. 762 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 5: I mean, that guy's coming in to save that fight. 763 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 5: Just make it a catchweight at one point fifty the 764 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:41,600 Speaker 5: other guy doesn't have to lose weight so he doesn't 765 00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 5: kill himself. And I think that makes it a little 766 00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 5: more even. And if you can't do that, then just 767 00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 5: you know, don't do the fight. But it's a big difference, man, 768 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 5: when a guy doesn't have to make those last five man, 769 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 5: it just is. And that's what really really sucks, man, 770 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:01,440 Speaker 5: because you know, guy goes home with a w the 771 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,080 Speaker 5: other guy, you know, he wanted to fight. He held 772 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,800 Speaker 5: to his end of the bog. And then again it's 773 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 5: it's it's no different. I had this conversation months ago, 774 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,480 Speaker 5: months and months ago. But it's another form of PDS. 775 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 7: Man. 776 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 5: It's a big advantage that you're having five pounds is 777 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:18,400 Speaker 5: a huge advantage. 778 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 8: And on all right, Kenny, imagine if Kenny could have 779 00:34:23,920 --> 00:34:26,560 Speaker 8: weighed forty eight for the Diego New Nets fight instead of. 780 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:29,399 Speaker 1: Forty six, right right, That's one of the worst days 781 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: of my life. 782 00:34:30,160 --> 00:34:32,440 Speaker 8: Just I was at a party just waiting for the 783 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 8: news that he had made wait in Vancouver. 784 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,480 Speaker 1: Literally the worst party of my life. You know, I 785 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: told you that I was hoping he missed. I was 786 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,520 Speaker 1: wanting to hear forty nine. I told you made it. 787 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,759 Speaker 5: I know, I told you the story one hundred times. 788 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:46,840 Speaker 5: But the guy was a mess, and whoever he was with, 789 00:34:46,960 --> 00:34:48,800 Speaker 5: they left the guy together. It was like a scene 790 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 5: in the Godfather when they leave the guy in the 791 00:34:51,120 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 5: hospital and the baker. I felt like a baker. I 792 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 5: swear to god. The guy was there by himself. The 793 00:34:57,160 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 5: accountants going, you gotta sign the form detractions and wouldn't 794 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 5: even public day, buddy, take a fucking hike. Man. This 795 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 5: guy can't even move. He doesn't even look at me. 796 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 5: I'm sitting there with wideman. He doesn't even look at me. 797 00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 5: I feel his hand tapping my legs, saying thank you. 798 00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: That's exactly what I wanted. 799 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 5: But he he was banged up, and this guy was 800 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 5: asking them, you know, you know your Social securityical test 801 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,160 Speaker 5: they give you in New York where you got to 802 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 5: remember the word yeah, you know, you're so secured. 803 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 1: You know, my team left. 804 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 9: My team left me because they didn't want to be 805 00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 9: necessary to murder, is what it was. 806 00:35:36,560 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 1: And like any say, he's on his own.

Rade. 831 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:37,520 Speaker 1: See if Chris composition himself like it, I. 832 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,000 Speaker 5: Mean he mentions widely Wideman and Woodley they like you say, 833 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 5: they both have to they got to get the fire 834 00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 5: back to both of them. 835 00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,320 Speaker 8: Well, right, I mean he's not a great example at present, right, yeah, right. 836 00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 5: I mean to make that statement, they have to you know, 837 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:53,640 Speaker 5: that loss to Colby, I don't know what he's talking about. 838 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,920 Speaker 5: We get it. They're both great wrestlers. And that's what 839 00:36:56,960 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 5: it looks like, is the recipe is, you know, to 840 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,839 Speaker 5: beat this guy. But man, this guy's on fire and 841 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,319 Speaker 5: he gets it, you know what I mean. So that's 842 00:37:05,360 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 5: not an easy out for anybody. 843 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 8: So I got to spend some time with Matt Sarah 844 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 8: and as soon as he said gluten free. It actually 845 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 8: didn't happen until we were at the airport lounge boarding 846 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,279 Speaker 8: the flight back to Vegas. But of course he said 847 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 8: gluten free, and I said stop right there as he 848 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,200 Speaker 8: was going to go look for some gluten free snacks, 849 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,440 Speaker 8: and I said, Ray said, you would definitely say gluten 850 00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 8: free at least once in front of me on the 851 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 8: podcast last week. 852 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:28,879 Speaker 1: And so I didn't like that. 853 00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 5: I said it before. The guy's what's known in the 854 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:36,440 Speaker 5: business as a repeater gluten free gluten gluten that you 855 00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 5: have the gluten, there's a gluten. The guy doesn't stop. 856 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:42,920 Speaker 5: The guy doesn't stop. He really believed that this is 857 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:47,040 Speaker 5: something new that glue. There's stuff is there's cookies and 858 00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:50,759 Speaker 5: shit without glutening it that they have him. There's the 859 00:37:50,880 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 5: glue is the new concept to him. He just doesn't stop. 860 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 8: So a couple other things I just wanted to highlight 861 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 8: and then you can take it anywhere you want to 862 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 8: before you let out of here in six minutes. I mean, 863 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 8: I gotta go do bedtime right now, right, I mean, 864 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 8: Brandon Royvall, we were not going to finish this episode 865 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 8: without talking about what was the fight of the night 866 00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 8: between him and kay Katta France at flyweight and with 867 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:14,000 Speaker 8: Davison Figuretto running this division, Cody Garbrand fighting for the 868 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 8: title and the way these guys. 869 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 1: Move around and all the skills. 870 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 8: I know, Royvall has a style that maybe doesn't seem 871 00:38:20,600 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 8: sustainable for a championship rise, at least right now. 872 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:25,919 Speaker 1: But man, was that a great fight. 873 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 8: And again, the more I watched this division, the more 874 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,919 Speaker 8: I think, thank god it's still here. 875 00:38:30,280 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, oh no, what what a great fight that was. 876 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 5: And the guy's just a absolute mad hat a. 877 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,080 Speaker 8: He's got a good way to put it. You know what, 878 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:40,439 Speaker 8: You text me mad hatter in the fight and help 879 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 8: me out. Oh yeah, next time, I'm yea. 880 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,319 Speaker 1: Ian Parker text me how did a text from kem 881 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 1: Flow and Ray Longo during. 882 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 5: The show was like credit you even you know, no, 883 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 5: he's look the guy was he is a mad hatter. 884 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 5: He's going to have to calm down a little bit. 885 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:59,279 Speaker 5: But it almost works for him. He creates that chaos 886 00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 5: and then you know, anything can happen. But he did 887 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:03,879 Speaker 5: get he did get hit with a with that one 888 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 5: right hand. But man, he's just he's just a game 889 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 5: kid man, and he's you know that that choke was tight. 890 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:16,560 Speaker 5: He's got looks like he's got really good jiu jitsu. Yeah, 891 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 5: I think he tightens up a couple of things, which 892 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 5: he's self admitted, which I even is better. You know, 893 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,440 Speaker 5: like said, he couldn't even make the correction in between 894 00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,680 Speaker 5: the first because he's such a man hatter. He couldn't 895 00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 5: even control himself. But he went out there and he's 896 00:39:28,440 --> 00:39:31,440 Speaker 5: exciting as hell. He's always gonna be exciting. That's why 897 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 5: I say, imagine giving this guy a title shot and 898 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:37,239 Speaker 5: he doesn't go all right, that's a great point. That's 899 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:39,160 Speaker 5: the problem. Like this is what got him there is 900 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:42,440 Speaker 5: just being crazy any and he is technical don't get 901 00:39:42,440 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 5: me wrong, but he is just willing to throw caution 902 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:49,800 Speaker 5: to the wind man, and for right now, that's working 903 00:39:49,880 --> 00:39:50,359 Speaker 5: really good. 904 00:39:50,880 --> 00:39:51,319 Speaker 1: I agree. 905 00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:52,759 Speaker 9: I mean, how many times do you see a guy 906 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 9: get dropped and go, you know what I'm gonna do. 907 00:39:55,239 --> 00:39:57,760 Speaker 9: I'm just gonna throw a spinning elbow. I mean interesting, 908 00:39:58,239 --> 00:39:59,160 Speaker 9: he's a savage. 909 00:39:59,200 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 1: I love that. 910 00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 9: And he's non stop attacking on the ground, on the feet. 911 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 1: This kid is trying to take you out like there's 912 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:09,560 Speaker 1: you know, a. 913 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:12,040 Speaker 5: Man, Kenny, you know there's a thing like you're you know, 914 00:40:12,080 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 5: you're against the cage and you're getting hit and you 915 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:17,080 Speaker 5: take a wild swing this gun. I spin back elbow. 916 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:22,920 Speaker 5: What money, It's crazy. That's a technical technique, you know 917 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 5: what I mean.

I'd like the heavyweight Tanner Boser quite 940 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 8: a bit actually to uh to maybe make a run 941 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 8: to the top eight or so and see if he 942 00:41:17,360 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 8: can break down one of those giants that continues to 943 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 8: stick around. But again, like if I'm a father in Canada, 944 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 8: I'm pushing my son to mix mash a lots. I'm 945 00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 8: telling you you can have that entire nation by the 946 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:30,440 Speaker 8: balls bang out the Bell Center. Caniflow I'm telling you 947 00:41:30,480 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 8: it's like, you know, Canif flow walk down the street 948 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,360 Speaker 8: in Boston like probably signed ten autographs walk down the 949 00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:36,120 Speaker 8: street in Montreal. 950 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,680 Speaker 1: A different story you know, I'm serious. 951 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,839 Speaker 8: I really feel like Dawado is one of the best 952 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:43,800 Speaker 8: fighters in that country right now. And these careers shift 953 00:41:43,840 --> 00:41:45,400 Speaker 8: on a split decision like that sometimes. 954 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:47,719 Speaker 5: And I'll tell you, man, you know, just to mention 955 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 5: that fight too. I don't know that guy missed weight, 956 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,280 Speaker 5: and obviously it didn't. The third round was mind boggling. 957 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,160 Speaker 5: I mean, honestly, I would have given that a ten 958 00:41:57,200 --> 00:41:59,359 Speaker 5: eight round just to make sure he couldn't win the fight. 959 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 5: That's the way would have been my mentality. 960 00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:04,359 Speaker 9: It looked bad, especially you're the dude who didn't make 961 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:06,640 Speaker 9: weight and you're running away the whole time. 962 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:08,680 Speaker 1: Seriously, get out of here. 963 00:42:08,880 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, he couldn't even engage him. The guy would shake 964 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:14,880 Speaker 5: his head and then still just start moving. Like I'm 965 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 5: telling you, if I'm if I'm the judge, if I'm 966 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 5: a judge, that's a ten eight round. 967 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. 968 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:22,520 Speaker 5: I do imagine if that guy would have won the fight, 969 00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:23,840 Speaker 5: that would have been awful. 970 00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 8: You know, No, I think that's the way that should 971 00:42:27,080 --> 00:42:29,760 Speaker 8: be interpreted. Again, something I didn't think of on the broadcast, 972 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 8: and again, something you could. 973 00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: Have texted me. 974 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 5: You know what, I'm all over this. You're making no 975 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 5: locking me off the top of it. I really having 976 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 5: a I was really having a great day.

Yeah, anything else before we let you fly. 980 00:42:49,200 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 1: So one other thing that Matt's Sarah said to me 981 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,919 Speaker 1: was that Ray is growing his hair, and I said, yes, 982 00:42:52,960 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: I see that. Every week it gets a little bit longer. 983 00:42:57,040 --> 00:43:00,160 Speaker 5: I don't know what I'm doing. One one is this one? 984 00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:01,759 Speaker 5: Is this pandemic going to end? So I can get 985 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:02,800 Speaker 5: a head cut?

So there 1158 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:21,839 Speaker 3: are the duck. 1159 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, team Annick wins the week four to three. Daw 1160 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:26,560 Speaker 8: with you is a slight dog, so the lead remains 1161 00:50:26,560 --> 00:50:28,920 Speaker 8: with the good guys. Ian one twenty four, one twenty two. 1162 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:32,600 Speaker 8: We're coming up on UFC Fight Night home versus Aldanna 1163 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 8: pretty lean this Saturday. We will have four selections for 1164 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 8: you today, first up in the welterweight division. 1165 00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: This was our whole question. 1166 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:42,319 Speaker 8: So Cody's gonna chase those results because I am just 1167 00:50:42,400 --> 00:50:46,279 Speaker 8: not efficient today. A couple of roster staples though, here 1168 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:50,359 Speaker 8: fell his former interim champ, Carlos Kondit slight underdog plus 1169 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 8: one fifteen, Court McGee the minus one thirty five favorite. 1170 00:50:53,640 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 8: That flip flop, So we had it differently yesterday, but 1171 00:50:56,360 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 8: now it is Court McGee who is the favorite. 1172 00:50:58,160 --> 00:50:59,879 Speaker 1: Ian Parker, who do you like. 1173 00:51:02,920 --> 00:51:04,920 Speaker 11: On a betting standpoint, I'm not touching this with a 1174 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 11: ten foot poll. 1175 00:51:06,400 --> 00:51:07,279 Speaker 3: I will tell you. 1176 00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:09,400 Speaker 11: At first, I was kind of leading Condit, you know, 1177 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:12,359 Speaker 11: I feel like he's got the tools to out win 1178 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 11: on this, you know, on the feet. But Court McGee's 1179 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 11: got good striking, he's a smart fighter, he's the better wrestler, 1180 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 11: he's got great cardio. He'll probably grind this against the 1181 00:51:20,719 --> 00:51:23,760 Speaker 11: cage and hold Condent there. At one point when Condit 1182 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 11: was a huge thread off his back, I just don't 1183 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 11: seem that being the case anymore. And he's got five 1184 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:29,120 Speaker 11: losses in a row. 1185 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 3: You know, it's a shame when. 1186 00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:32,760 Speaker 11: You see a guy who was so exciting to watch 1187 00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:35,080 Speaker 11: his loss after loss, and ben losses too. 1188 00:51:35,600 --> 00:51:37,400 Speaker 3: Not that McGee has been such a stun lately. 1189 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,399 Speaker 11: I just think his style is really not the right 1190 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:44,560 Speaker 11: fit for Carlos Carlos Condit right now. So I as 1191 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,040 Speaker 11: much as Carlos Kntent's always been one of my favorite fighters, 1192 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 11: I'm gonna go Court McGee here. 1193 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,640 Speaker 1: So Court McGee, this life favor for Ian. 1194 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:53,720 Speaker 8: I saw Condic Kenny in the hallway in the middle 1195 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 8: of his forty eight hour quarantine. He had just gone 1196 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:58,160 Speaker 8: to get his second COVID nineteen test. He looks great, 1197 00:51:58,200 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 8: he looks very strong, but he does seem to be 1198 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:03,080 Speaker 8: putting a lot of pressure on himself, and it's easy 1199 00:52:03,080 --> 00:52:05,920 Speaker 8: to see why five straight losses. Last win can Flow 1200 00:52:06,200 --> 00:52:09,000 Speaker 8: may have twenty fifteen Guayania, Brazil against. 1201 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:10,840 Speaker 1: Thiago Elvis Court McGhee. 1202 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:13,400 Speaker 8: On the other side, thirteen of his last fourteen have 1203 00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,320 Speaker 8: gone the distance ken Flow finishes fights. 1204 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,000 Speaker 1: How about this stat for you today. I did this 1205 00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 1: on the airplane. 1206 00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 8: So Court McGee's last finish was nearly ten years ago 1207 00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:24,440 Speaker 8: October of twenty ten. Ken Flow had to finished very 1208 00:52:24,440 --> 00:52:26,640 Speaker 8: close to that time against Takanori Gomi. But I digress 1209 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:27,879 Speaker 8: Ken Flow, which way you're going here? 1210 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 1: Geez? 1211 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:31,160 Speaker 9: You know what I do like both of these guys, 1212 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 9: both tough dudes who have been around the block. And 1213 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 9: then some Carlos, you know, like he had said he 1214 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 9: was one of my favorite fighters, but he just constantly 1215 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,799 Speaker 9: looks off balance and has been making really poor decisions 1216 00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,440 Speaker 9: during the fight, which absolutely kills me. Being Stefana Carlos 1217 00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 9: Court McGee, I just think, you know, I'm gonna go 1218 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 9: with Court, just based on the fact that I think 1219 00:52:53,320 --> 00:52:58,080 Speaker 9: performance wise, he's just been the more consistent guy. So 1220 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:01,920 Speaker 9: you know, I think this isn't out of reach for 1221 00:53:02,000 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 9: Carlos Condit, but I just think if I got to 1222 00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:05,799 Speaker 9: make a pick here, I got to go with the 1223 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 9: guy who's been more consistent as of laden, and for me, 1224 00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 9: that's court Biki. 1225 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 8: All right, So our two expert opinions very much doubtailing 1226 00:53:12,200 --> 00:53:14,520 Speaker 8: with that line adjustment that we have seen here early 1227 00:53:14,600 --> 00:53:16,360 Speaker 8: during fight week all right, featured Beut and the women's 1228 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:19,040 Speaker 8: bandonweight division. I'm excited to see this as a close 1229 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,279 Speaker 8: fight per Vegas again, one that flipped for us could 1230 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,680 Speaker 8: produce the next title contender depending on the main event. 1231 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:27,320 Speaker 8: Jermaine de random Me minus one fifteen Juliana Penya minus 1232 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:28,080 Speaker 8: one oh five. 1233 00:53:28,600 --> 00:53:29,839 Speaker 1: So GDR of course is. 1234 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:31,640 Speaker 8: One a UFC title challenge for the belt in a 1235 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 8: second division. What was her last fighting and that was 1236 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:37,640 Speaker 8: last year at UFC two forty five. Many many sort 1237 00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,319 Speaker 8: of thought Paenya could could be a future champion. 1238 00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:41,359 Speaker 1: But she hasn't followed that much. What do you think 1239 00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:42,000 Speaker 1: about this one? 1240 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:47,040 Speaker 11: You know what, I agree, at one point Openia was 1241 00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:52,320 Speaker 11: definitely future champion material. However, her game is not really evolved, 1242 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 11: and that wrestling game right now what we're seeing. 1243 00:53:55,280 --> 00:53:57,120 Speaker 3: With the top of the division kind. 1244 00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 11: Of getting better and more well rounded. I don't see 1245 00:53:59,600 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 11: her being take down GDR all that easily, and I 1246 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,239 Speaker 11: think there's a huge difference in the stand up game. 1247 00:54:04,560 --> 00:54:07,080 Speaker 11: I think where I was impressed with GDR was in 1248 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,480 Speaker 11: her Amanda Nunia's fight. Off her back, you know, those 1249 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 11: up kicks really not just giving up what she could 1250 00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,440 Speaker 11: have and at certain points of the fight landing. 1251 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 3: If this fight doesn't go to the ground. 1252 00:54:16,560 --> 00:54:19,040 Speaker 11: GDR I think will have a field day picking her apart. 1253 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:22,440 Speaker 3: If it does go to the ground, pen is dangerous. 1254 00:54:22,080 --> 00:54:24,480 Speaker 11: But I think GDR is decent enough to not get. 1255 00:54:24,360 --> 00:54:26,839 Speaker 3: Submitted, and we saw her cardio hold up well in. 1256 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,280 Speaker 11: The Amanda Nunia's fight. I'm gonna go Jermaine de Random. 1257 00:54:29,360 --> 00:54:31,880 Speaker 11: I'm actually shocked, and it is only minus one fifteen 1258 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 11: to be honest, due to the lack of activity from 1259 00:54:34,680 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 11: Julian opinion. 1260 00:54:35,560 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 8: So do you already have a straight wager on germane 1261 00:54:37,680 --> 00:54:43,000 Speaker 8: randomy not a true question, I guess not, all right? 1262 00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 11: Hold on, My answer is I know because I'm hoping 1263 00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 11: that enough people believe in Panna's takedowns that I can get. 1264 00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:52,600 Speaker 3: GDR a little bit lower. 1265 00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:54,520 Speaker 8: All right, well let me build up Penion. See if 1266 00:54:54,520 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 8: we can move the line up a little bit ken flow. 1267 00:54:56,200 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 5: So she she. 1268 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,080 Speaker 8: Has only lost one in her last six out the 1269 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,439 Speaker 8: main event against Valentina Chefchank a long long time ago 1270 00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:05,319 Speaker 8: January of twenty seventeen. She's only competed once since. But 1271 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,399 Speaker 8: there was a time on this podcast where we talked 1272 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:08,920 Speaker 8: about her as the meanest. 1273 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:09,360 Speaker 1: Woman in MMA. 1274 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:14,320 Speaker 8: So you know, back ally right versus octagon, different story. 1275 00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:16,840 Speaker 1: What do you think about this fight? Listen? 1276 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:20,920 Speaker 9: I think Panya definitely has the skills to beat GDR. 1277 00:55:21,040 --> 00:55:24,880 Speaker 9: I just think that Jermaine Durandemy is going to be 1278 00:55:24,920 --> 00:55:26,040 Speaker 9: a handful on the feet. 1279 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 1: I think that. 1280 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,640 Speaker 9: Before Panya is able to get her hands on her, 1281 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:33,560 Speaker 9: I think she might be taking perhaps too much damage 1282 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 9: or GDR is just gonn be able to keep her. 1283 00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:38,240 Speaker 1: On the outside for too long and win the fight. 1284 00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:43,600 Speaker 9: In a striking battle, I think Pania hasn't improved has 1285 00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:45,399 Speaker 9: not improved her striking very much. 1286 00:55:45,440 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 1: To Ian's point, I do think that she does have 1287 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:48,400 Speaker 1: the skills. 1288 00:55:48,440 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 9: If she can get it to the match, she can 1289 00:55:50,239 --> 00:55:53,640 Speaker 9: get a t QO perhaps get a submission. I just 1290 00:55:53,719 --> 00:55:56,320 Speaker 9: don't see it happening. I'm not willing to go that 1291 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,040 Speaker 9: far as of right now. So GDR for the win. 1292 00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,719 Speaker 8: All right, You'll lead the comain event, and then we 1293 00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 8: will have Ken Flow, who is trailing you at present, 1294 00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:07,040 Speaker 8: lead us in the main event, which I'm very interested 1295 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:07,840 Speaker 8: to see where. 1296 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:09,080 Speaker 1: You guys fall their comin event. 1297 00:56:09,239 --> 00:56:13,200 Speaker 8: At heavyweight, Jorgan di Castro prohibitive minus two sixty favorite 1298 00:56:13,200 --> 00:56:16,439 Speaker 8: here against the plus two twenty underdog Carlos Felipe will 1299 00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:18,920 Speaker 8: need the round the method, guys, So, Ian, do you 1300 00:56:18,920 --> 00:56:19,759 Speaker 8: know what I mean when I. 1301 00:56:19,680 --> 00:56:22,360 Speaker 1: Say prohibitive favorite because a lot of people don't know 1302 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 1: what I mean. 1303 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 11: Do you know what I mean that he's a heavy 1304 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:26,240 Speaker 11: distinct a heavy favorite? 1305 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,279 Speaker 1: No, do you know what the word prohibitive means? 1306 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 8: So prohibitive favorite means like you can't bet right, So 1307 00:56:32,080 --> 00:56:34,080 Speaker 8: it means you can't bet on it, right. So, Kenny, 1308 00:56:34,080 --> 00:56:36,400 Speaker 8: when I say Organ the Castro is a prohibitive favorite 1309 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:38,839 Speaker 8: that minus two sixty, it's sort of me inserting an 1310 00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:40,560 Speaker 8: opinion a little bit, right, But I could sneak it 1311 00:56:40,600 --> 00:56:41,799 Speaker 8: in because a lot of people don't know what the 1312 00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,760 Speaker 8: hell the word means. It means that I don't necessarily 1313 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:47,120 Speaker 8: think he should be priced that highly, and that maybe 1314 00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:49,920 Speaker 8: it should give you pause. And certainly when you have 1315 00:56:49,960 --> 00:56:53,320 Speaker 8: someone who's minus eight hundred, you would use that adjective 1316 00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:55,200 Speaker 8: more often, maybe when it would be so out of 1317 00:56:55,239 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 8: the realm of possibility, right like eight hundred to win 1318 00:56:57,239 --> 00:57:01,600 Speaker 8: one hundred. That being said, do you see any value 1319 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:02,960 Speaker 8: on the Castro or Felipe? 1320 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:03,520 Speaker 1: In which way you go? 1321 00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,400 Speaker 3: I I'm just a little confused. 1322 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:09,560 Speaker 11: So you went into this conversation, probably knowing I wasn't 1323 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:12,200 Speaker 11: going to know that word particularly, and you couldn't have 1324 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:14,960 Speaker 11: just said is he a heavy favorite that you wouldn't 1325 00:57:14,960 --> 00:57:15,239 Speaker 11: bet on? 1326 00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,240 Speaker 3: Instead, you made me look like a fucking dumb ass 1327 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 3: for thirty seconds. 1328 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:22,040 Speaker 1: No, that was not the well you did? Well, I 1329 00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 1: guess I want. No, I didn't. It's not like that's 1330 00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:25,120 Speaker 1: in my script? Is that? 1331 00:57:25,160 --> 00:57:28,000 Speaker 8: But I I the word prohibitive is obviously in my 1332 00:57:28,000 --> 00:57:29,080 Speaker 8: my podcast script. 1333 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:31,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, so, I you're nice. 1334 00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:35,160 Speaker 8: No, I'm not fucking stumbling on my words all day. 1335 00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:36,800 Speaker 8: You know how much I love you and my little brother. 1336 00:57:36,840 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 8: The point is that I do believe when I use 1337 00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 8: that word on broadcast, not a lot of people know 1338 00:57:41,800 --> 00:57:43,760 Speaker 8: necessarily what I'm talking about. 1339 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 11: Well, now everyone does, and now everyone's like, all right, well, 1340 00:57:46,920 --> 00:57:48,640 Speaker 11: we feel pretty stupid because we could have just fucking 1341 00:57:48,680 --> 00:57:51,000 Speaker 11: googled it. If I was like Kenny had my phone 1342 00:57:51,000 --> 00:57:52,480 Speaker 11: while I was on the computer, I would have fucking 1343 00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:54,240 Speaker 11: googled it and been like, oh, John didn't get me 1344 00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 11: this time. But uh yeah, you know, so I think 1345 00:57:57,480 --> 00:57:59,040 Speaker 11: that's a pretty good good call. 1346 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 3: You're going to Castro is a is. 1347 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 11: A heavy favorite, then yeah, I don't know if I 1348 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:04,440 Speaker 11: feel comfortable betting on especially at heavyweight at that win 1349 00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,080 Speaker 11: the division where anything could kind of happen. But I 1350 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:08,720 Speaker 11: do like him to win this fight. I think he 1351 00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:13,200 Speaker 11: could win by knockout in the second round. Still, you know, 1352 00:58:13,240 --> 00:58:15,280 Speaker 11: it's hard to see a guy coming off of a 1353 00:58:15,360 --> 00:58:16,760 Speaker 11: loss be a favorite at. 1354 00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 3: That, especially in the heavyweight division, and. 1355 00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:20,560 Speaker 11: It could happen at where they're both ranked. So I'm 1356 00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:24,800 Speaker 11: gonna go Yorgan to Castro round two KO. But to 1357 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 11: your point, for himive is a good word for it, because. 1358 00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:28,560 Speaker 1: I would not bet on that well, and I could 1359 00:58:28,560 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 1: be wrong on that, right. Uh So I don't think 1360 00:58:31,160 --> 00:58:31,400 Speaker 1: you all. 1361 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,080 Speaker 3: I don't think you are. It's a hard number to 1362 00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:33,720 Speaker 3: lay down. 1363 00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 11: In a situation where guys are gonna slug it out 1364 00:58:35,600 --> 00:58:37,720 Speaker 11: and anything can happen at heavyweight. 1365 00:58:38,280 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 8: So Kenny, both of these guys were undefeated going into 1366 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 8: their previous fight to Castro pretty listless performance against Greg 1367 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 8: Hardy at UFC two forty nine. Felipe lost his debut 1368 00:58:47,360 --> 00:58:50,000 Speaker 8: against Sergey Spivok. That was on Fight Island, though, you know, 1369 00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 8: so he did have experience competing here. 1370 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:53,800 Speaker 1: What do you think about the komain? 1371 00:58:55,080 --> 00:58:57,440 Speaker 9: You know, I think jorgan to Costro probably learned a 1372 00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 9: lot in that last fight. I felt like he just 1373 00:58:59,360 --> 00:59:01,400 Speaker 9: did not let his hands go when he should. He 1374 00:59:01,480 --> 00:59:04,760 Speaker 9: seemed very timid, very hesitant. I don't think he's going 1375 00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 9: to make the same mistake this time out. I think 1376 00:59:06,840 --> 00:59:09,120 Speaker 9: he'll let the hands fly, and if he does that, 1377 00:59:09,680 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 9: I do believe he should. 1378 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 1: Get the win. You got a round for me, kid? 1379 00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:18,840 Speaker 9: Oh yeah, let's go round two TK two TKO. 1380 00:59:19,320 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 1: All right, I can throw away this piece of paper. 1381 00:59:21,760 --> 00:59:21,920 Speaker 7: Now. 1382 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:23,840 Speaker 8: You guys are identical going into the main event, which 1383 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 8: Ken Flow will lead. Amanda Nunez is the champion. Erna 1384 00:59:27,400 --> 00:59:29,800 Speaker 8: al Donna could very well get a championship opportunity one 1385 00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 8: hundred and thirty five pounds if she can come through 1386 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,880 Speaker 8: here as a slight underdog plus one oh five, Holly 1387 00:59:33,920 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 8: Home slightly favored here minus one twenty five. So Kenny, 1388 00:59:36,720 --> 00:59:38,200 Speaker 8: this was going to be the main event in Vegas 1389 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,360 Speaker 8: August first, Rani al Donna test positive for COVID nineteen. 1390 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:43,960 Speaker 8: Dateline shifts to Abu Dhabi. Who do you have in 1391 00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 8: the main event and how do they get it done? 1392 00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:47,439 Speaker 1: Let's see. 1393 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 9: You know, I'm just always surprised, we talked about this before. 1394 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:55,400 Speaker 1: I'm just, you know, always surprised that Holly. 1395 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:58,600 Speaker 9: Holm, with all of her experience, just hasn't been able 1396 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:01,080 Speaker 9: to defeat these UFC jitters. 1397 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:03,000 Speaker 1: No matter whether she wins or loses. 1398 01:00:03,440 --> 01:00:06,600 Speaker 9: To me, she's just so tense before a fight and 1399 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,160 Speaker 9: just doesn't look right to me. 1400 01:00:09,320 --> 01:00:11,440 Speaker 1: It's an easy it's an easy choice. It's all Donna. 1401 01:00:11,520 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 6: Now. 1402 01:00:12,000 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 9: For me, it's like, well, round does she win or 1403 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:17,439 Speaker 9: does she win? By decision? I think al Donna wins 1404 01:00:17,480 --> 01:00:21,240 Speaker 9: this pretty comfortably. I think she wins with a four 1405 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:26,280 Speaker 9: fourth round t KO. Holly has a lot of experience, 1406 01:00:27,200 --> 01:00:30,840 Speaker 9: but I think Erna Aldonna is an absolute gamer man. 1407 01:00:31,000 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 1: She lets it fly when she's supposed to. She's fast, 1408 01:00:34,200 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 1: she's tall for the division. 1409 01:00:36,280 --> 01:00:40,560 Speaker 9: She's assertive, uh, and she's getting better and I think 1410 01:00:40,640 --> 01:00:42,600 Speaker 9: that she's gonna bring a lot of confidence and a 1411 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:43,440 Speaker 9: lot of momentum. 1412 01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 1: That is a future champion in my eyes. 1413 01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:48,400 Speaker 8: Amazing. I didn't know your ceiling was that high on her. 1414 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 8: But again I agree with everything coming out of your mouth. 1415 01:00:50,560 --> 01:00:52,880 Speaker 8: Maybe up until that point, I just think with Amanda there, 1416 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,560 Speaker 8: but again I just having followed her whole career, this 1417 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 8: is really exciting to see her emerge and develop this 1418 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:02,080 Speaker 8: way ian and get this made event an opportunity. Obviously 1419 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,040 Speaker 8: she had a big win against Kaitlyn Viada that was 1420 01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 8: a t k O last December UFC two forty five. 1421 01:01:06,840 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 8: What do you think about home here? Al Donna? And 1422 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:09,920 Speaker 8: ultimately wish way are you going on? 1423 01:01:10,040 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 1: P Kenny? 1424 01:01:12,400 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 11: You know you're a real motherfucker for that one, right 1425 01:01:14,560 --> 01:01:16,760 Speaker 11: because I could have swore you were gonna go Holly 1426 01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:19,320 Speaker 11: Holm therey after that whole Uh, her being tense, but 1427 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:22,800 Speaker 11: this time she's gonna let lose and let it fly. No, 1428 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 11: he gave jos. 1429 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 1: He just gave me the old the kemdid. 1430 01:01:28,360 --> 01:01:30,680 Speaker 11: I when al Donna came into the UFC, I was 1431 01:01:30,680 --> 01:01:32,320 Speaker 11: pretty high on her in the beginning, she was a 1432 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 11: little timid. 1433 01:01:32,960 --> 01:01:35,040 Speaker 3: She wasn't she was a little hesitant. I think this 1434 01:01:35,120 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 3: last fight. 1435 01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 11: Though, we saw the real irene Al Donna here letting 1436 01:01:38,880 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 11: her hands go, knocking out a tough I don't even 1437 01:01:41,120 --> 01:01:41,440 Speaker 11: tell me that. 1438 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 3: Fuck that name up, but Vienna I learned that one. 1439 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:45,840 Speaker 3: I kept listening to that, so if I was gonna repeat. 1440 01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:46,840 Speaker 1: It, I'm sure to call it Donna. 1441 01:01:46,880 --> 01:01:48,320 Speaker 3: I don't even know why I go for the first 1442 01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:51,120 Speaker 3: and last name. I just doubled my chances of missing 1443 01:01:51,120 --> 01:01:51,480 Speaker 3: one of them. 1444 01:01:51,680 --> 01:01:53,280 Speaker 1: Oh my god, thank. 1445 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:55,440 Speaker 3: Thank god, you know who I'm talking about. 1446 01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:59,120 Speaker 11: I'm laughing at me, but uh, I like all Donna here. 1447 01:01:59,200 --> 01:02:01,400 Speaker 11: The one thing also she has is a ground game 1448 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 11: that we don't see as much, but she does. 1449 01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:04,360 Speaker 3: She's won some fights by submission. 1450 01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,080 Speaker 11: I actually think she's gonna win this fight by submission 1451 01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:10,120 Speaker 11: in the fourth round. I think that she eventually will 1452 01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 11: get this fight to the ground, and I will think. 1453 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 11: I think it might be because Holly maybe getting jabbed 1454 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:16,760 Speaker 11: to death and may try to shoot in and that's 1455 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:17,240 Speaker 11: what she takes. 1456 01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 3: The bag gets a rare nick and show. 1457 01:02:18,800 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 11: I do think that Aldonna has potential, obviously with Amanda 1458 01:02:22,240 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 11: at the top of the mountain. It's hard to picture 1459 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 11: anyone other than Valentine to giving her fits. But the 1460 01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 11: way the heighth really strong fight IQ. Also, I think 1461 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 11: Kenny would agree there. She fights really, really smart, doesn't 1462 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:34,160 Speaker 11: get hit that much. 1463 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:35,800 Speaker 3: I do like her here. 1464 01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:38,080 Speaker 11: It's a shame because I think Holly has all the 1465 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:41,440 Speaker 11: tools to be a champ, but you know, we just 1466 01:02:41,480 --> 01:02:42,120 Speaker 11: don't see it. 1467 01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 3: So for that reason, I'm going to go fourth round submission. 1468 01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:47,400 Speaker 8: Hollyhulm has won two of her last three, but in 1469 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:49,880 Speaker 8: terms of that championship stuff that you mentioned, she has 1470 01:02:49,920 --> 01:02:53,680 Speaker 8: lost her last four UFC title fights. Maybe Cody Merrill 1471 01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 8: hit that explicit button on this week's episode. It's late 1472 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,280 Speaker 8: at night. We've flown a lot, picked a click on 1473 01:02:59,320 --> 01:03:01,160 Speaker 8: the way out of here. Parker's going to stick around. 1474 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 8: He's bet in the National Football League as well, so 1475 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,520 Speaker 8: we update the standings. And again, by the way, the 1476 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,720 Speaker 8: loser of this bet is going to do five shots 1477 01:03:07,720 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 8: of Bruce Buffer's puncher's chants inside of twenty minutes on 1478 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 8: a podcast, and I can assure you I'm going to 1479 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,600 Speaker 8: do it on an empty stomach and make a real 1480 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:17,560 Speaker 8: fool of myself in front of the masses all. 1481 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:19,320 Speaker 1: Right, So I had the lead two to zero to 1482 01:03:19,520 --> 01:03:20,240 Speaker 1: one one. 1483 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:24,240 Speaker 8: Falcons, though, blow a huge lead at home is three 1484 01:03:24,240 --> 01:03:25,960 Speaker 8: point favorite. So I'm two and one on the year. 1485 01:03:26,000 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 8: Cody was one in one. He had the Arizona Cardinals 1486 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:30,520 Speaker 8: minus five and a half. They lost outright to Matt 1487 01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:33,880 Speaker 8: Patricia's Detroit Lions, his home favorite. So we both need 1488 01:03:33,880 --> 01:03:35,720 Speaker 8: to win in week four, Cody, you're trying to avoid 1489 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:37,160 Speaker 8: a one and three start. My man, who do you have? 1490 01:03:37,760 --> 01:03:39,560 Speaker 10: Well, John, I know you weren't able to watch the game, 1491 01:03:39,600 --> 01:03:42,120 Speaker 10: but if you had watched the Cardinals game, he kept 1492 01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 10: them in the game. Kyler Murray did three interceptions. There's 1493 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:46,720 Speaker 10: no way that he could do that two weeks in 1494 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:49,080 Speaker 10: a row. And if he does, I'll take two shots 1495 01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:52,400 Speaker 10: on the podcast next week. So Cardinals minus three and 1496 01:03:52,480 --> 01:03:54,600 Speaker 10: a half at the Panthers. I don't think the Panthers 1497 01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:57,200 Speaker 10: are very good. You heard it on record, let's go. 1498 01:03:57,720 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 1: I love it. 1499 01:03:58,160 --> 01:04:00,120 Speaker 8: I can't wait to see you do two shots next week. 1500 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:02,200 Speaker 8: I do love Kyler Murray though, so I can certainly 1501 01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:03,120 Speaker 8: support that play. 1502 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:06,160 Speaker 1: Again. I saw some There was some live t on 1503 01:04:06,200 --> 01:04:07,240 Speaker 1: the airplane. 1504 01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:08,360 Speaker 8: Back, so I watched a little bit of football, but 1505 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 8: you know, fade or follow at your own peril here, 1506 01:04:10,920 --> 01:04:13,120 Speaker 8: but I'm coming right back with the Chicago Bears. 1507 01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:14,680 Speaker 1: Fade. They're free and O. 1508 01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:16,400 Speaker 8: I think they're gonna be better with Nick Foles as 1509 01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:19,280 Speaker 8: the starting quarterback. They named him the quarterback today. But man, 1510 01:04:19,360 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 8: do they feel like a fraudulent three? 1511 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 11: And oh? 1512 01:04:21,320 --> 01:04:21,840 Speaker 1: Right now? 1513 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 8: I mean do they beat the Indianapolis Colts to move four? 1514 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 8: And oh, I don't fucking think so, I don't see it. 1515 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:28,040 Speaker 8: This is a play on Frank right, give me Indianapolis 1516 01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:30,280 Speaker 8: minus two O five right now? I think it closes 1517 01:04:30,280 --> 01:04:32,840 Speaker 8: three or Higo three or higher. We're going with the 1518 01:04:32,840 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 8: Colts as my pick.
