It goes down Saturday and the first 174 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: return here to Brazil. It feels like in a while, 175 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 1: maybe I'm wrong on here. Definitely the first time Charles 176 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,199 Speaker 1: Olivera is gonna fight in front of a live Brazilian 177 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: crowd since twenty nineteen and the main event of UFC 178 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:44,160 Speaker 1: Fight Night Rio. Originally, Olivera was going to face Raphael Fhaziva. 179 00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 1: Knee injury pulled him out, but we have a rising 180 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: hungry Mateush Gamra in his place. In this UFC he 181 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: O Preview is brought to you by Total Wireless, the 182 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 1: official wireless provider of UFC. Get unlimited data that won't 183 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,600 Speaker 1: slow you down, Souke. While you were away, we were 184 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:04,679 Speaker 1: talking about a new nickname for Charles Olivera, the Predator, 185 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: and the soon to be thirty six year old puts 186 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: his seventeen to oh lifetime record inside his native country 187 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: of Brazil on the line against a Mateushcameron, who has 188 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 1: won four of five and is ranked eighth compared to 189 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: the number four Olivera. What is the biggest challenge stylistically 190 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 1: that Olivera will face against Caamra. Considering here Olivera is 191 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 1: just four months removed from being knocked out for the 192 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 1: first and only time in his forty seven fight career. 193 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 2: I mean this one is interesting, right because if this 194 00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: fight was before the Ilia fight, meaning he hadn't lost, 195 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 2: and he hadn't lost via Ko, I don't think there's 196 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 2: any world where anyone would even consider Gamra having much 197 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 2: of a chance short of just stalling him out right, 198 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 2: you could take him down. You could follow the Armin 199 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 2: Saryuki in game plan and kind of work from there. Now, 200 00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 2: there's a couple problems with that is that now, on 201 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 2: the one hand, I still think that one thing you're 202 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,920 Speaker 2: looking at here if you're Gamrot, is again I'm not 203 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,319 Speaker 2: saying he's intentionally looking to stall, but he might be 204 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 2: looking to get to positions that, without further development, lead 205 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 2: to stalling. Right, these are stalemate ready positions. That's the 206 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 2: thing I think you have to keep in mind no 207 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 2: matter what. But the interesting part is b see on 208 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 2: the feet. I think Gamroth's stand up has gotten better. 209 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 2: I don't think it's as good as Olivera's. But between 210 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 2: that and potential susceptibility on the ground to ground and pound, 211 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 2: which Gamrot also doesn't have, like overwhelming ground and pound, Like, 212 00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 2: the circumstances are where in a normal scenario you'd look 213 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 2: at this and be like, okay, there are ways Gamrock 214 00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:54,439 Speaker 2: could win, but this is Olivera's fight to lose. And 215 00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: now you look at it and you say, okay, well, 216 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 2: I could still see the contours of that. But the 217 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:04,480 Speaker 2: major questions lingering over over Olivera punch resistance on the ground, 218 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 2: punch resistance standing change it to such a degree where 219 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: now it becomes like, well, I don't know, is this 220 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,320 Speaker 2: a coin flip. It kind of feels like it might. 221 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: Be well, drafts why or sorry Gods wise from our 222 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:19,120 Speaker 1: friends at DraftKings. It has been a virtual coin flip 223 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 1: all week. But as we stand right now, it literally 224 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 1: is minus won ten Olivera minus won ten Gamros exactly. 225 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: And look, if it was prime for prime, if this 226 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: was three years ago when Olivera was riding an eleven 227 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 1: fight win streak, he the champion, had a name that 228 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: was Doe Bronx, and he was, you know, on the 229 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: verge of creating chaos and finishing every single person that 230 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: stands across from him, we would have a different prediction. 231 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 1: But you nail that it's the knockout four months ago. 232 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: He'll be thirty six in about seven or eight days. Now, 233 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: You've got a Gamrot who is like aggressively streaking. And 234 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: what I mean by that, Luke is we're not gonna 235 00:11:57,440 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 1: play the video because I think UFC what copyright it. 236 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 1: But in one of their pre fight sort of documentary 237 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: things for this specific fight, you know, it shows Gamra 238 00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:09,280 Speaker 1: literally living at American Top Team in South Florida in 239 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 1: a dorm room above the fighting area, you know, living 240 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:18,199 Speaker 1: and breathing this at age thirty four. He already knows 241 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 1: what I'm about to say, that his time is now 242 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,760 Speaker 1: to truly make a run. He's one four or five. 243 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: The only loss was by split decision to Dan Hooker, 244 00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 1: and this is suddenly falling into his lap, a huge 245 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: opportunity that he went out of his way to publicly 246 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: campaign for. He didn't have to get ready. He is ready, 247 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:41,439 Speaker 1: and I think that's a very dangerous equation for Charles Olivera, 248 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 1: which is why the odds are exactly where they're at 249 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: right now. This will be though, Charles Olivera back at home, 250 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: first time since twenty twenty, first time for a live 251 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 1: crowd since twenty nineteen. I mentioned that seventeen and old 252 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: record in Brazil, and check out this reaction when he 253 00:12:56,600 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: came down the elevators to his public workout Damn in 254 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 1: Long Island. Luke reminded me that the last UFC event 255 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: in Brazil was UFC three oh one, the pay per view, 256 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 1: back in twenty twenty four. Luke, some people believe we're 257 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:42,199 Speaker 1: walking into I mean even some people are believing that 258 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:44,440 Speaker 1: this could be a retirement bout for Olvera. I don't 259 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: believe that we'll get into that topic in a second. 260 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 1: But at the very least this could be a humbling moment, 261 00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 1: or that whole crowd could could bowie boye Bowie could 262 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 1: booie his chances we've seen it before into an emotional, 263 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 1: spectacular performance. Does Gamroth specifically have the kind of skills 264 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: that can be an anti to what olli Era does best? 265 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 1: Create chaos, make it emotional and shine through that because 266 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 1: he's the guy that will show up at your college 267 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: keg party and leave with your girlfriend. 268 00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 2: I mean, what's interesting to me is like what Gamrod 269 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,480 Speaker 2: is up against here. Obviously you just play this video, 270 00:14:23,520 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 2: but everyone who knows, like the Brazilian fans or nationals, 271 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, Like, they're extremely pro Brazilian, 272 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 2: and Charles is obviously even among their general preference for 273 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:37,560 Speaker 2: cheering for their own countryman, Charles is a special figure 274 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 2: even among that. So like this is you know, Gamrot 275 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 2: is walking into the mouth of the lions den. Here. 276 00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:44,600 Speaker 2: Something to think about too is what that might mean 277 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 2: be see if it goes to a decision, which I 278 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,560 Speaker 2: feel like is unlikely. I just feel like there's no 279 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: way it goes the full freight. But you know, if 280 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 2: it does, the fact that there's gonna be like a 281 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 2: go cheering crowd specifically just for Charles and nothing for 282 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: Gamrot could play a role. Anyway. Here's the point I'm 283 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 2: trying to make for this fight. I really believe that 284 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:10,880 Speaker 2: Gamroth has to be aggressive here because BC could he 285 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:14,400 Speaker 2: win by trying to play it safe, get the takedown, 286 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 2: you know, get to the back, hold it busy work, 287 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: just kind of neutralize and nullify what Charles does. He 288 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 2: could do that, that's not a thing that's beyond his grasp. 289 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: But I feel like if he does that, you're gonna 290 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 2: let a vulnerable guy who still got some moxie and 291 00:15:32,040 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 2: some willingness to go for it to hang around way 292 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: too long. I actually feel like what Gamro has to do, 293 00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:39,920 Speaker 2: whether it's in the standing or whether it's on the ground, 294 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 2: he has to take the no. I'm not saying he 295 00:15:42,280 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 2: has to do what Poeton did at three twenty BC, 296 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 2: but something with that kind of spirit, taking the fight 297 00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 2: right to him, aggressively putting him on the defensive, and 298 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 2: really making him suffer as a consequence. I feel like 299 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 2: if Gamrock tries to play this one safe in enemy territory, 300 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 2: even with a vulnerable Charles, he will miscalculate what the 301 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 2: goal is and end up on the losing side of things. 302 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: And I don't think he will because you know, I 303 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: reference that video of him living at the gym, facetiming 304 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: his wife and kids. I believe back in Poland, correct, 305 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 1: is that? 306 00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 7: What? 307 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 2: Yes? 308 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: I mean the amount of hunger built into the lifestyle 309 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: and the separation from family is palpable. I mean the 310 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: best fights, ultimately are when two guys have equal amounts 311 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 1: to prove. For Gamrock, this is about proving that although 312 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:33,440 Speaker 1: he's come close before, although he's lost close fights and 313 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 1: won them, let's not forget he has that disputed decision 314 00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: when over Arman Saruki and who's ahead of him at 315 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 1: the moment in the standings. This is Gamrock's window right now. 316 00:16:43,480 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: He absolutely chased this fight because he knows he's ready. 317 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 1: But on the flip side, you have a hunger in Olivera, 318 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 1: not just to please the hometown fans, but to make 319 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: this short turnaround on four months since getting flatlined by 320 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,920 Speaker 1: Taporia and to show us that he's sick of here 321 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 1: about retirement. In fact, here's Olivera addressing that sickness right 322 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: now in this interview this week. 323 00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 8: I also want to ask you. I've seen some people 324 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 8: float the idea around there and asking if this could 325 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 8: be your retirement fight. You've obviously had a lengthy career 326 00:17:14,720 --> 00:17:19,040 Speaker 8: fighting at home in real you know people are wondering that. 327 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,479 Speaker 8: So I just want to make sure we still got 328 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 8: Charles Olvera for a while, or or could maybe this 329 00:17:23,160 --> 00:17:23,440 Speaker 8: be it? 330 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:24,159 Speaker 2: What do you think? 331 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,240 Speaker 6: I hated Igad Vydak visit Jules Case. 332 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 5: I don't listen this the retirement talk comes from you. 333 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 5: I never said maybe I'm playing. 334 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:36,440 Speaker 6: Maybe I'm fighting bad and like everybody was retire and 335 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:37,879 Speaker 6: no moment I thought about it. 336 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,280 Speaker 2: In no moment I thought I thought I thought about 337 00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,280 Speaker 2: it either, So I'm not for the moment, I'm not 338 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 2: thinking about. 339 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: It, Luke. Just to be fair about the stats, we 340 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,200 Speaker 1: already know, OLIVERA is the greatest finisher and submission artist 341 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: in the company's history. He's third all time and wins, 342 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:58,000 Speaker 1: and he's second in terms of active length of his 343 00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 1: career or only second to Jim. This is his fifteenth 344 00:18:01,600 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: year in the UFC and he's entering his forty eighth fight. 345 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,160 Speaker 1: You gotta believe it's pretty remarkable if he can get 346 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,080 Speaker 1: a win here and stay in the elite, closing in 347 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: on thirty six with a style that almost welcomes carnage. 348 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 2: Yes, although I mean the reason to me why it 349 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,119 Speaker 2: would be so impressive is if you just look at 350 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,920 Speaker 2: this situation and again the odds speak to how close 351 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 2: it really really is given the circumstances. The thing that 352 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,800 Speaker 2: I really also go back to, BC, is, I mean, 353 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:34,360 Speaker 2: this is the kind of fight historically someone in Charles's 354 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 2: position should not win. Right, You've got a guy like 355 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 2: Gamrot who is okay short notice, but I mean, you 356 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,120 Speaker 2: know he's gonna be ready. You know, he's probably gonna 357 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 2: have the cardio. He's certainly going to be like a 358 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,920 Speaker 2: dog on a bone, and no matter what, it's gonna 359 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,200 Speaker 2: be a tough guy to get out of there early, 360 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 2: even if you do get him out, Like, you're in 361 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 2: for a fight when you have Gamrot, at least a 362 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 2: laborious one where it comes to a lot of wrestling 363 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,879 Speaker 2: and scrambling, so you know what you're kind of in for. 364 00:18:57,720 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 2: But the interesting part BC is, you know, well I 365 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 2: kind of go back to it. I mean a little 366 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 2: bit earlier. It's I'm kind of getting lost to my point, 367 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: here I apologize. I'm just trying to sort of go 368 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 2: back to it's really the kind of mentality that you've 369 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 2: got with Gamrot, and to what extent he elects one 370 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 2: or the other, I think it's just gonna have a 371 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:15,639 Speaker 2: tremendous impact on the fight. 372 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 1: I mean, ro leads all lightweights in six, landing five 373 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: point three successful takedowns per three rounds. Also, of course, 374 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: we've targeted him at times as a bit of a 375 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 1: boring or safe fighter. He does have five post fight 376 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 1: bonuses in eleven years appearances. Sorry, debuting in twenty twenty. 377 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,639 Speaker 2: Yes, I forgot in conjunction with this, it's kind of 378 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: related me. See, do you remember a couple of shows ago. 379 00:19:41,080 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 2: I can't remember how long ago it was. Maybe it 380 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 2: was last show last Friday where we saw a video 381 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 2: of gam Rod getting the news that he had gotten 382 00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 2: the fight with Charles over there. Gamrod is a guy 383 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 2: that people don't want to fight. He had a win 384 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,880 Speaker 2: over so Yukin at a time that was a little 385 00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:58,399 Speaker 2: bit surprising. He did that, and it was supposed to 386 00:19:58,480 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 2: launch him and it didn't. So yu Can was still 387 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 2: just the guy that ended up kind of moving along 388 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 2: faster and again that you know that win was could 389 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 2: have gone either way. I understand, but the points on 390 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,320 Speaker 2: to make is due. This guy has to know if 391 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:13,480 Speaker 2: you mess this up, you know when is the next 392 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 2: opportunity against a main event former champion ever gonna come 393 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 2: your way? Like you just know? BC am I saying 394 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: this is it will never happen again. That might be 395 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: a little bit much, but the fact that we even 396 00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:28,200 Speaker 2: have to contemplate that shows how serious this is. This 397 00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 2: is a very small window to capture a very large prize. 398 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 2: He can't mess this one up, and I do think 399 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 2: that will probably change or at least effect anyway the 400 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 2: way that he fights. 401 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 1: Gambrot did bounce back from that split decision lost to 402 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:43,520 Speaker 1: Hooker from last year when he took a decision from 403 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: Ludevolt Klein in May of this year. Let's not forget 404 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: he's got wins over RDA, Raphael Physiv, Jalen Turner, Sarukian, 405 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 1: Carlos Diego Fajeda. He's done some things in this rise. 406 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:58,119 Speaker 1: I also mentioned the five point three successful takedowns per 407 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,359 Speaker 1: three round fight. Luke. The question I was going to 408 00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 1: ask you, of course, was the potential or possibility that 409 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: their contrasting ground games would cancel each other out. But 410 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: we've got some sound here, and by the way, I 411 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:12,160 Speaker 1: didn't want to not mention on the last sound, Danny 412 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:15,760 Speaker 1: siguris mustache, looks, looks fantasm. I mean, that's that's gaucho 413 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:16,479 Speaker 1: level right there. 414 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:19,560 Speaker 2: I know the signor bigote is what I him. 415 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:22,600 Speaker 1: I mean, the ladies must be lining up to that man. 416 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:25,840 Speaker 1: Anyway back to this. Here is gam Rat by the way, 417 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:30,040 Speaker 1: on the UFC's Unfiltered podcast with Matt Sarah saying basically 418 00:21:30,119 --> 00:21:32,159 Speaker 1: he's not afraid to do anything on the ground with 419 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:35,760 Speaker 1: Chuck Matteo's a lot of a lot of guys are 420 00:21:35,880 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 1: free to go to the floor. With Charles OLIVERA, I 421 00:21:41,359 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 1: don't think you're gonna be afraid to do it. 422 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 9: Oh, bro, Jiujitsu and restling is my background. 423 00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 5: This is in my head. 424 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,920 Speaker 9: I feel in my DNA like I can roll with 425 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,639 Speaker 9: him in the ground. I think there's gonna be epic 426 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 9: fighting the ground for sure, because I don't afraid he's 427 00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 9: in the ground. I go, I will go take him down, 428 00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 9: and I'm gonna try and roll with him in the ground. 429 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 9: But Bro, this is gonna be all raunther fight. I 430 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:11,160 Speaker 9: gonna exchange punch with him, exchange wrestling. I wanna test 431 00:22:11,240 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 9: myself against him in the ground, sow. This is gonna 432 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 9: be no stop action for sure, Bro. Five round no 433 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 9: stop action. But maybe maybe we don't need it. Fight once, 434 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 9: you know, to sew epic fight for sure, super excited 435 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 9: and Bro, I go to his hometown, to Brazil, all 436 00:22:28,880 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 9: Brazil against me. Give me this an edge, Give me 437 00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 9: this an edge because I grow up with this. Every boy, 438 00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 9: every booy will be power to me. 439 00:22:37,760 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 10: Bro. 440 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 9: And you know what wrestling is power, Brother, Wrestling is power, 441 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:47,400 Speaker 9: pamp pump pump, control, strength, conditioning, everything. 442 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 2: I love you, Cannon, he can fight tomorrow. 443 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:57,160 Speaker 1: Jimmy, Hey, you know will look he wants to smoke 444 00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 1: and I don't know if he'sawone. He showed up to 445 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 1: his public workout in the crowd was yelling something translated 446 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,920 Speaker 1: to the equivalent of he's going to kill you. 447 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 2: Yes, Yeah, You're gonna die. 448 00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:10,280 Speaker 1: What do you make of his words there? First of all, 449 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 1: he's been saying at every interview that it will be 450 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 1: a high paced, high action fight. You could guess that 451 00:23:14,920 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: to be correct, give him the circumstances and the opponent, 452 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 1: But do you think he's going to have the success 453 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,879 Speaker 1: on the ground that will not make this need to 454 00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 1: be a five round kickboxing match with the ground games 455 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:26,880 Speaker 1: canceling out. 456 00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 2: I mean, the thing about Gamrod is he's got incredible scrambling. 457 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,480 Speaker 2: That really is the reason why he was able to 458 00:23:33,520 --> 00:23:36,800 Speaker 2: beat soar Yuki. And like you know, takedowns for takedowns 459 00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:41,680 Speaker 2: and set up for setup, and you know the many 460 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,720 Speaker 2: different components that go into a dominant wrestling game, they 461 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,800 Speaker 2: both are basically the same or you know, pretty close. 462 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 2: But it was that scrambling b see that he was 463 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 2: just a little bit ahead. But of course that's a 464 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 2: very different kind of control that's being exerted between Soyuki 465 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,960 Speaker 2: and and Olivera. The question is whether Olivera, you know, 466 00:23:58,119 --> 00:24:00,240 Speaker 2: I really wonder what he's going to do. I really 467 00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: wonder what he's gonna do, because I think if he 468 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,919 Speaker 2: tries to get behind Olivera, then you set him up 469 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: for leg entanglements and or potential back takes. And if 470 00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 2: you get chess to chess with him, you have to 471 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 2: deal with his guard. But that's actually much more manageable 472 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 2: if he hasn't hurt you yet, you know, so for example, 473 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: Benson Henderson got hit in the body and then took 474 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 2: down Pettis, and then Pettis armbarred him from guard, but 475 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 2: he was already like real hurt from a bodykick. Without that, 476 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 2: I don't really know, you know, I'm just saying it's 477 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,960 Speaker 2: much more manageable from that position. So I think that 478 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 2: it's how it's it's the question of whether or not 479 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,920 Speaker 2: he can use his wrestling in jiu jitsu and his 480 00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: scrambling to maintain control. To me is I'd be surprised 481 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 2: if he couldn't, to be honest with you, But how 482 00:24:43,119 --> 00:24:46,119 Speaker 2: he chooses to do it and what kind of danger 483 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 2: he invites is the question. Because BC you've seen it before, 484 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 2: guys will also for example, you know, you'll see you'll 485 00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 2: see him roll for a knee bar, and then they'll 486 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: try and stand. And what does Olivera do. He grabs 487 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 2: behind the ankle and then goes daily eva reverse daily eva, right, 488 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 2: and then now he's trying to invert. He's trying to 489 00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 2: go to the back, and he's got these leg entanglements 490 00:25:04,720 --> 00:25:07,800 Speaker 2: that just grow like weeds on or vines, I should say, 491 00:25:07,840 --> 00:25:11,359 Speaker 2: on a fence. If he invites that, you're inviting trouble. 492 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,600 Speaker 2: But if you go chess to chess with him, now 493 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 2: you have to break that to really put it on him. 494 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:19,080 Speaker 2: But like you know, as a camping point, I think 495 00:25:19,119 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 2: that's a winnable fight. 496 00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,440 Speaker 1: I do, well, we're all gonna be camping with him, 497 00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:25,040 Speaker 1: pitching a tent at the excitement in this fight on 498 00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:28,639 Speaker 1: Saturday night, I wanted to quickly bring in our betting 499 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: expert Long Island, Luke no Ceda. If you're getting plus 500 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: money on olivera at home with something to prove, that 501 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: might be a different conversation given that this is a 502 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:39,760 Speaker 1: pick them? How do you look at this from a 503 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:40,359 Speaker 1: betting angle? 504 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 6: So when this dropped, we mentioned the odds, like a 505 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 6: week ago it was minus one twenty Oliver EA plus 506 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:50,200 Speaker 6: one hundred Gamrat. I jumped right on Gamrot at plus money. 507 00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 6: To me, I feel like he should be the favorite here. Yeah, 508 00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:54,720 Speaker 6: it's a pick them right now. I will feel a 509 00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 6: little fomo when and if Charles becomes a dog, because 510 00:25:57,800 --> 00:25:59,479 Speaker 6: I'll feel like, fuck, I should have taken Charles as 511 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 6: a dog. But I'll take whoever's plus money here. So 512 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:02,600 Speaker 6: I'm riding with Gamroth. 513 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:05,440 Speaker 1: Let's go. Yeah. I like momentum Gamrotz got it. He's 514 00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:07,720 Speaker 1: got the right attitude, Luke. When we look at what's 515 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 1: at steak here, number four is Olivera, a lightweight. Number 516 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 1: eight is Gamrod. If we're trying to look at where 517 00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 1: the division is going, we know that saryuki In will 518 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:19,359 Speaker 1: be facing Dan Hooker Hooker, excuse me, coming up Hooker. 519 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: Just god, look, Arman is number two right now, Dan Hooker, 520 00:26:23,280 --> 00:26:27,120 Speaker 1: number six. There's rumors that number three Max Holloway could 521 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: be in the running for number seven. Patty Pimblet and 522 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: I think we're starting to come to the conclusion that maybe, 523 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: just maybe mid January, the first UFC on Paramount card 524 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,560 Speaker 1: could be headlined by the champion, Ilio Traporia against number 525 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: five Justin Gaechee. If all of that is true, what 526 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: do you think is a steak here for the winner? 527 00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,679 Speaker 1: Ultimately in this four versus eight matchup? 528 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: Sar yuki In Sarry Kim Gamrock clearly trying to break 529 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 2: into the top five. He's trying to get into orbit 530 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 2: for a time shot. I don't think that's in any 531 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,800 Speaker 2: way of some kind of mystery. On the other side, 532 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 2: for Olivera, I think obviously he would yes mathematically he 533 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 2: would probably drop out of the top five. But it's 534 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:12,800 Speaker 2: a little bit more than that, right to get brutally 535 00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 2: finished in the way that he did against Aporia, come 536 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 2: back in an inadvisable timeline, and under this scenario also 537 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 2: lose to gam Rot. And let's just say something, b See, 538 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 2: what if Gamrock pounds him out like that is a 539 00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 2: really bad loss? That would be kind of you know, 540 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 2: I mean truly adding insult to injury. At that point, 541 00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: you'd be clearly out of the top five. And I 542 00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: think most folks would then say, you know, not incapable 543 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 2: of giving people a tough fight on the right day. 544 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 2: But that's where you're sort of at like benil dry 545 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 2: Yusch territory. You know, good fighter, certainly, but and gives 546 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:47,600 Speaker 2: the tough ones sometimes. I really gave Gamrot, for example, 547 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,680 Speaker 2: a really tough fight, but at the same time, you know, 548 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,640 Speaker 2: just can't quite get over the hump because he's sort 549 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 2: of like always floated on that bubble. You'd have descended 550 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 2: back down to that part of the of the division, 551 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: which he hasn't been a part of in quite some time. 552 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 2: So this is like holding on to what you've got 553 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 2: in a significant way. Dude, Olavera. He wanted to compete 554 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:08,560 Speaker 2: in Brazil. He wanted to be here in front of 555 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 2: his people. I make no judgments about the desire to 556 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 2: do that, but on the timeline he did it, he 557 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 2: is just courting significant risk if he gets grinded out 558 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 2: BC and it's like the star Yuki in fight where 559 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 2: it's like, okay, one guy won, but you know this 560 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 2: guy is still clearly dangerous. Maybe we have a different conversation. 561 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,119 Speaker 2: But if he gets battered here a little bit by 562 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:31,879 Speaker 2: guy not known to do battering, I think that's a 563 00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 2: massive drop on his stock. 564 00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,919 Speaker 1: I'm with you. Before we hear LT's prediction, let's hear 565 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,960 Speaker 1: one more piece of sound from Gamra talking about not 566 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 1: only what's at stake in this fight, but why he 567 00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 1: is potentially a problematic opponent for Ilia La Leenda to Oporia, I. 568 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 4: Did mistake a couple of times. When I'm thinking about 569 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:57,040 Speaker 4: what will be the in the future, the next one. 570 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 4: Right now, my focus is the Charles I passed him. 571 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 4: Then I can think what will be next? 572 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 7: But but is. 573 00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 3: Is in my name? 574 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,480 Speaker 4: But it's a huge name in the media and of 575 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 4: course in UFC. 576 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 3: Give me him. 577 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,760 Speaker 4: I say, yes, the one, the same short notice. 578 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 11: Or something like that. 579 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 3: He's from Europe. I am from Europe. 580 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 4: For sure, there's going to be the biggest bad fight 581 00:29:19,240 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 4: in the Europe. 582 00:29:19,880 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 3: From the lightweight division. 583 00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 4: Iah is his great fighter, like he proved that the 584 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 4: best in the in the in the UFC is Fertal lightweight. 585 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 4: But I believe like my style is a very problem 586 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,640 Speaker 4: to his matchup. 587 00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:38,000 Speaker 3: So the first is the charge. 588 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 4: But in the future when I can meet him, he's 589 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 4: going to be really entertaining fight because of course. 590 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 3: He has heavy hands. 591 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 4: It's real dangerous in the feat but I want to 592 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 4: test test him the wrestling in. 593 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 3: The jiu jitsu. 594 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:52,920 Speaker 4: For sure, I am I will be a big problem 595 00:29:53,000 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 4: for him. 596 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: Look pre Top thirty divorce, would you agree that, uh, 597 00:29:58,560 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: this man cam Rock could a problematic style matchup for 598 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 1: the new lightweight champion. 599 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,000 Speaker 2: I wouldn't rule it out, but I think that this 600 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 2: is not this is not top of my mind. Yeah, granted, 601 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 2: it seems like what we're gonna get, as you indicated, 602 00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 2: is Taporia and Gai Chee, And then you would imagine 603 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:23,800 Speaker 2: so you can if he stays on the winning side 604 00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:26,160 Speaker 2: of things, that that would be the one after that. 605 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,280 Speaker 2: And I guess if we see that, that's going to 606 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 2: give you a much better answer. The what I'm trying 607 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 2: to make is I would not rule out the possibility 608 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,560 Speaker 2: that Gamrock could make. You know, Gamrot's gonna be a 609 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 2: tough matchup for anybody, probably, right. I mean, I know 610 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 2: Hooker beat him, but you know that was a really 611 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 2: inspired performance by Hooker to get there. He's a tough fight, 612 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 2: so I imagine to be a tough fight for a 613 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:47,880 Speaker 2: lot of guys. I'm just really not ready to crown 614 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 2: him ready for the really top top guys in the 615 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 2: division just yet without improving it a little bit more 616 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 2: along the way. 617 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: That's fair. But post divorce tritoria, that's a difference. 618 00:30:58,880 --> 00:30:59,959 Speaker 2: Is that is that a real thing? 619 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,200 Speaker 1: That's what the interwebs seemed to create the picture that 620 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:07,280 Speaker 1: it's true and while it certainly could go either way 621 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,200 Speaker 1: when you have that kind of chaos in your life, 622 00:31:09,520 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: I mean, do you remember when Shane Moseley, at nearly 623 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 1: age forty beat the bags off Margarito while he was 624 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:17,719 Speaker 1: in the midst of that divorce trial with his ex 625 00:31:17,800 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 1: wife jin who who won the trial so aggressively she 626 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 1: even got control of his title belts and was like 627 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:28,280 Speaker 1: go fight that fight you're gonna lose anyway, And he 628 00:31:28,360 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: went in there and battered that man with the loaded raps. 629 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: We also saw when Merle broke Poetan's heart, he came 630 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: back and knocked a fool out, But that's kind of 631 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 1: what he does anyway. Does this concern you if this 632 00:31:40,440 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: emotional breakup causes any change to the to the current 633 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 1: arc of your favorite fighter. 634 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: I when I and you know when I say it, 635 00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,920 Speaker 2: I mean it when I tell you I could not 636 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 2: possibly give a fuck less. You know I'm saying the truth. 637 00:31:58,120 --> 00:31:59,120 Speaker 2: You know I'm saying the truth. 638 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,520 Speaker 1: All right, Long Island look reminding us that Mackenzie Dern, 639 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: post divorce from Wesley, probably fueled by her need to 640 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: financially support him, had a fantastic victory. 641 00:32:10,160 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 2: This is a weird line of conversation. 642 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: But you know, Bruce Springsteen's follow up to Born in 643 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 1: the USA, The very underrated Tunnel of Love, was completely 644 00:32:19,280 --> 00:32:22,320 Speaker 1: written through divorce, Luke, So it can it can produce 645 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 1: the best art. 646 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 2: I We'll tell you. You know what someone told me 647 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,760 Speaker 2: once about divorce, and this was not my dad, who 648 00:32:27,800 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: probably has quite a lot to say about divorce, is 649 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 2: that men typically grow beards after divorces. Have you had that? 650 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:39,240 Speaker 1: Oh? No, ponytails and sports cars. We know the midlife 651 00:32:39,280 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: crisis that's coming, right. 652 00:32:41,160 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 2: It's not about midlife crisis so much, is It's more like, 653 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,760 Speaker 2: you know, you sort of ages you. You know, it 654 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 2: sort of turns you to the next version of yourself 655 00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 2: in a weird way. 656 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, we should probably get off this topic because I'm 657 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 1: sure everybody hates it. But back to the fight itself, Luke, 658 00:32:58,240 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: who wins Saturday? 659 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:08,000 Speaker 2: And how I'm gonna pick gam rot and just say 660 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,720 Speaker 2: I hope Charles wins. And I know that's kind of hedging, 661 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 2: but it's it's I think I bet a lot of 662 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 2: people feel that way, right, I bet a lot of 663 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 2: people feel like man, and it's slightly different set of circumstances. 664 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:21,880 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be worried about Charles at all, and maybe 665 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 2: you still aren't. I'm sure there's gonna be some people 666 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 2: out there being like, I'm still not worried. Fair enough, 667 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 2: fair enough, But I'm just saying there's probably also some 668 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:32,720 Speaker 2: that are like the turnaround and the vulnerability that comes 669 00:33:32,760 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 2: with It's not a joke, man, And I know the 670 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 2: best fighters in the world think I'll be fine. I'll 671 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:38,160 Speaker 2: make a turn around. Look what happened to Vulcan Islam. 672 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 2: Even if you thought, wow, Vulkan was entering that fight 673 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 2: under unenviable circumstances, did anyone be like, Oh, he's gonna 674 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,640 Speaker 2: get smashed in the first round with a head kick 675 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 2: ko Like, no one even that was beyond what people 676 00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 2: were sort of considering among the known universe of expected outcomes. 677 00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,959 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that's gonna happen here. Gam Rot has 678 00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 2: really shown nothing quite like that in the past. But 679 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 2: what I am saying is, to BC's point, this is 680 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,960 Speaker 2: Gamrock's chance to break through. This is historically speaking, a 681 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:07,280 Speaker 2: fight a guy like that should not lose, especially given 682 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:09,720 Speaker 2: like some of the age differences and the mile difference. 683 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:13,239 Speaker 2: I think as well, I think that Gamrot is a 684 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,400 Speaker 2: serious threat to Charles here, so I'm gonna give it 685 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,800 Speaker 2: to him. But at the same time, wouldn't it be 686 00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 2: great if Charles could rally from the worst loss of 687 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 2: his career. Wouldn't it be great if he could be 688 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,239 Speaker 2: received by his people as a winning fighter. I don't 689 00:34:26,280 --> 00:34:28,239 Speaker 2: know who else would be against something like that. So 690 00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 2: Gamrock's probably gonna get his hand raised. But man, it 691 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:33,480 Speaker 2: would be so great if it's Charles. 692 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 1: I understand where you're coming from. I think this does 693 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:39,800 Speaker 1: go the distance. I think we're gonna see enough of 694 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: a slow down from Olivera coming off the ko lost, 695 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:47,120 Speaker 1: a short turnaround, the compounding of age and mileage, where 696 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,560 Speaker 1: he'll do enough to look good, excite the crowd, and 697 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: make this a fun main event. But I like the 698 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 1: momentum of Gamrot. I like the gas tank, I like 699 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: the motivation, and even though I don't, I think we'll 700 00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,080 Speaker 1: see more on the feet all in the ground. I 701 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: think it'll be the mix of the threat of the 702 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,200 Speaker 1: takedown that really allows Gamra to come ahead. I could 703 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,799 Speaker 1: even see this being a splitter majority. But I think 704 00:35:08,840 --> 00:35:12,359 Speaker 1: Gamrat will win a close, competitive and even fun fight 705 00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 1: here on enemy territory, which will certainly be the best 706 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:19,040 Speaker 1: win of his career, because I mean, as long as 707 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 1: it's not heavily disputed in the wrong direction. But breakthrough 708 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: possibilities here for Gamra, and I just like what I've 709 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,279 Speaker 1: seen about him leading up to here. Let's stay on 710 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:31,879 Speaker 1: this card LT and continue down to that Cole Maine event. 711 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:35,200 Speaker 1: Are enough people talking about Montel Jackson right now? The 712 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 1: three to one favorite at bantamweight. Riding a six fight 713 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:42,239 Speaker 1: win streak, He enters as a minus three to ten 714 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:47,799 Speaker 1: favorite overall against former multiple time Flyway champion Devison Figuredo, 715 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 1: who's looking to shake off a two fight losing skit 716 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:53,280 Speaker 1: against the league competition at bantamweight, and as a plus 717 00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 1: two point fifty underdog. Luke, you gotta love this matchup. 718 00:35:57,960 --> 00:36:01,080 Speaker 1: But the only thing Montel Jackson has missed up to 719 00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: this point is sort of a breakthrough win over an 720 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: elite opponent. This would give him that opportunity. 721 00:36:06,560 --> 00:36:08,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, it certainly would. There's a lot of reasons to 722 00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:11,800 Speaker 2: be excited about Montel Jackson. Thirty three hasn't quite broken 723 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 2: through and the timeline that you would want, But to 724 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,520 Speaker 2: the point you make me see, he loses to Brett 725 00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:18,240 Speaker 2: Johnson twenty twenty, and he's been off to the races 726 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 2: since then, beating Demon Black Cheer two fights ago, and 727 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 2: then Daniel Marcoz, which is a very very good win. 728 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 2: That's a good fighter. He got that win against, and 729 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,120 Speaker 2: he did it in a very professional way. Also Devison 730 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 2: the Figoredo, not for nothing, very good fighter, but he 731 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,200 Speaker 2: got his knee shredded obviously against Corey Sanhagen bec first 732 00:36:32,239 --> 00:36:34,720 Speaker 2: fight back. He's older. I think he's kind of found 733 00:36:34,760 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 2: his limits at bansamweight. Dude, the UFC is clearly saying, hey, 734 00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,719 Speaker 2: Montel Jackson, we can tell you might be something. Here's 735 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,759 Speaker 2: your first really good chance to prove it against a name, 736 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 2: an aging name, a declined name, but a name just 737 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 2: the same. Let's see what you can do. This one 738 00:36:49,600 --> 00:36:51,680 Speaker 2: should be very, very good. I love this fight. 739 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 1: Montel Jackson thirty three years old, by the way out 740 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: of Milwaukee. This is his moment, that six fight win streak. 741 00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,960 Speaker 1: He did knockout Demon Black Cheer in the first round. 742 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: He's fresh off of a three round decision over Daniel 743 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: Marcos and Luke. Do you know about the legend of 744 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 1: his hand size? Do you know this? 745 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 2: Who's this Montel Jackson? 746 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 1: Yes? 747 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 2: So, doesn't he have the same sized gloves as like 748 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:13,279 Speaker 2: brock lesnar or something. 749 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 1: Dude, this is a throwback picture to Montel Jackson. I 750 00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,279 Speaker 1: keep wanting to say Montel Jordan, by the way, but 751 00:37:19,400 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 1: this is how he does. I mean Luke once upon 752 00:37:23,040 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: a time and not so. Look at that's Francis and 753 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 1: Ganu's hand right there. That's the predator. That's the one 754 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:32,000 Speaker 1: of the largest scariest men we've ever met in this sport. 755 00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: That's a bantam weight going tip to tip, finger to 756 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 1: finger with him. 757 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 2: That's insane. 758 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 1: What do you think that suggests? What is he backing? Luke? 759 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:44,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you know what I mean? A punch? Probably 760 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:45,720 Speaker 1: a punch, right. 761 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,040 Speaker 2: BC. Do you want to fondle his genitals? 762 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,080 Speaker 1: Okay, thank you very much. I am interested in you 763 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 1: because you are an undercart assassin in Montel Jackson is 764 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:00,839 Speaker 1: trying to become really a main inventor. He How good 765 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:02,000 Speaker 1: is this man in your eyes? 766 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: I think he's pretty good. 767 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:06,000 Speaker 6: I think your analysis the spot on that they're like 768 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 6: giving him Figgy to kind of give him a name 769 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 6: propel him up. I do feel like he's had a 770 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,320 Speaker 6: few big names fall through, so someone could check that 771 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 6: for me. But like, I feel like he's been booked 772 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 6: against some names and kind of gotten screwed over there. 773 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:19,360 Speaker 5: But he should win this. 774 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:21,160 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, geez. 775 00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:23,960 Speaker 6: I did dabble on Figy with the plus seven and 776 00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 6: a half, meaning one judge has to give him one round, 777 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 6: and because I think this goes all three rounds, I 778 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 6: think that Montel or Figgy could cover the spread. 779 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,320 Speaker 2: Let's go, yeah, so you to your point. He was 780 00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:37,600 Speaker 2: supposed to have a fight against Chris Gutierrez in twenty 781 00:38:37,640 --> 00:38:40,160 Speaker 2: twenty three canceled, soa he'd never got made off. In 782 00:38:40,200 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four canceled, far D Bascharat twenty twenty four canceled, 783 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,320 Speaker 2: so then he had that, but then after that he 784 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,160 Speaker 2: gets the black cheer in the Marcos fight. So excuse 785 00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:50,399 Speaker 2: me longer on Luke right on the money. 786 00:38:50,880 --> 00:38:54,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, as always with that, so big opportunity for Montell 787 00:38:54,160 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 1: to break through and a similar theme but a different circumstance. 788 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 1: In this welterweight fight. The veteran was Luke is a 789 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:06,640 Speaker 1: plus four hundred underdog against the former lightweight Joel Alvarez 790 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 1: now Alvarez of Spain. His seven to one over his 791 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:13,800 Speaker 1: last eight, with the only loss to Armant Sarukian. But 792 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:17,279 Speaker 1: he's had weight issues along the way multiple times. He's 793 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 1: had some disastrous weight cuts. This is him moving up 794 00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 1: to welterweight. Luke, do you feel like this is a 795 00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: full time move here because he's coming in as a 796 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:29,320 Speaker 1: minus five thirty five favorite against us an established welterweight 797 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:29,680 Speaker 1: in Luke. 798 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think his body's changing and it's 799 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 2: a good thing. I think he ran into a couple 800 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:38,160 Speaker 2: of brick walls at one fifty five, but clearly he's exciting. 801 00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:44,320 Speaker 2: He's one of Spain's more interesting, you know products. I'm 802 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:45,960 Speaker 2: very curious to see how he looks here at one 803 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:46,920 Speaker 2: seventy for his debut. 804 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's riding a streak of three straight wins, all 805 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:53,600 Speaker 1: by stoppage, a knockout of Jaikar close by flying knee, 806 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 1: the TKO from knees and punches against Elvis Brenner, and 807 00:39:57,360 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 1: then he Bravo choked Mark Chacase before that did get 808 00:40:00,920 --> 00:40:03,120 Speaker 1: stopped by Saryuki and in a fun fight there. But 809 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,279 Speaker 1: big moment and big opportunity for this guy who talked 810 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,600 Speaker 1: a lot this week about how hard that weightcut was 811 00:40:09,719 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: for him, even assumes this weight cut will be difficult 812 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 1: as well. At one seventy. I mean, he's always been 813 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 1: a big dude, an action guy. But at thirty two 814 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: here maybe not too dissimilar to Jackson, although Jackson seems 815 00:40:23,560 --> 00:40:25,719 Speaker 1: closer to the to the top here at Bandam Wait. 816 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,759 Speaker 1: Big opportunity for for Alvarez at Welterway LT. When you 817 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: look up and down this card, I don't know if 818 00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:38,000 Speaker 1: it's sizzles, but there's certainly some offerings here worth tasting. 819 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:39,759 Speaker 1: What else is jumping out at you? 820 00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 2: It's a good question. Let me see if I could 821 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:50,160 Speaker 2: pick one here. I'll say Chafelle Felio against Clayton Carpenter. 822 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 2: He's got a little bit of juice to it for 823 00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 2: me that that one's gonna be on. I think that's 824 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:58,000 Speaker 2: the last prelims, or maybe it's the second to last. 825 00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,840 Speaker 2: I'm not sure how they put it in card or. 826 00:41:00,960 --> 00:41:03,320 Speaker 2: I think some people might say BC, the Vitor Petrino 827 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 2: and Thomas Peterson fight because it's heavyweight, might have a 828 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 2: little bit of fun to him. I'm not really part 829 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:09,759 Speaker 2: of that. The one prospect that I would say is 830 00:41:09,800 --> 00:41:13,760 Speaker 2: really worth watching Beatri's Mosquita. Multiple times BJJ world champion 831 00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 2: and actually a good one with a great game. She's 832 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 2: undefeated five and zero, taken on Arena Alexiva. That should 833 00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:21,399 Speaker 2: be a very good fight, or at least Misquita BC 834 00:41:21,840 --> 00:41:24,440 Speaker 2: is where her career is worth following. And you're asking, like, oh, 835 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,160 Speaker 2: you know, I know people are kind of down on 836 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:28,239 Speaker 2: BJJ prospects, and I understand that. I don't know how 837 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 2: far Mosquito will go BC. But what I would say 838 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 2: is based on what I've seen from her game and 839 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:34,480 Speaker 2: just obviously from jiu jitsu as well. But you know 840 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:38,839 Speaker 2: what she did in in LFA and early MMA, there's 841 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,799 Speaker 2: reason to believe she could be quite interesting. Obviously, there's 842 00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 2: a fight at one hundred and thirty five pounds Long Island. Luke, 843 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:46,520 Speaker 2: where are you the Lucas Hoocha fight? What do you think? 844 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,160 Speaker 6: No, but I just want to say it's worth noting 845 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 6: we open the card and end the card with an 846 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:53,719 Speaker 6: Olive era Simon Oliver in the first fight, Charles Oliver 847 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:56,200 Speaker 6: in the last fight. Simon Oliver too, the only fighter 848 00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:59,279 Speaker 6: on this card to missweight, missweight by eight pounds. Oh, 849 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 6: that will hopefully stay on the card and just be 850 00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:04,120 Speaker 6: a Catchwaight. At this point got to give a shout 851 00:42:04,160 --> 00:42:06,440 Speaker 6: out to my two Aussies on the card. Con Offley, 852 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 6: who is winless in the UFC coming off the tough 853 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:10,359 Speaker 6: but you know, maybe he can beat to Karlohamos here. 854 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 6: I'm not giving him much of a chance. And Stuart 855 00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 6: Nickel against Lucas Hocha is a pickham one. 856 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 2: Also, also we see Caroly nikobl Keevich on this card 857 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:19,680 Speaker 2: at one time game. 858 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,760 Speaker 1: From the one of the last remaining from that twenty 859 00:42:22,960 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: fourteen Ultimate Fighter Straweight season. She's thirty nine riding a 860 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: two fight losing skid. But don't forget she she had 861 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,920 Speaker 1: that like five fight resurgence before that. So shout out 862 00:42:32,960 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 1: to the former title challenger gave put you on on 863 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:38,799 Speaker 1: the hospital at MSG. People forget that and a trust 864 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 1: laws there also be it a rising Rosanami Unis at 865 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,080 Speaker 1: UFC two on one, probably the best win of her career. 866 00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 1: It is sad to see our heroes come to the end. Luke, 867 00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:50,839 Speaker 1: by the way, Luk is only thirty three. He has 868 00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 1: lost three of his last five. He's been stopped in 869 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:56,360 Speaker 1: all three by some decent names. Odds wise, they're writing 870 00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:57,839 Speaker 1: him off into the sunset here. 871 00:42:57,880 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 2: It feels like no, h yeah, And they gave him 872 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:02,600 Speaker 2: a guy who's a bruiser. I mean, he's a bruiser 873 00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:04,720 Speaker 2: at fifty five. Let's see what that looks like at seventy. 874 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 2: But he fights balls out. You know, he's an attacker. 875 00:43:08,239 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 2: That's what that's what he does. That's who he is, 876 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:13,000 Speaker 2: that's his fighting identity. Yeah, b see they I mean 877 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 2: Luk is not that old. But they might be trying 878 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:17,479 Speaker 2: to cash him out. I'm not I'm not so sure. 879 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Carolina to close there is fighting Julia plastri 880 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:22,480 Speaker 1: at strawwaight uh. 881 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 2: Interesting. 882 00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:25,799 Speaker 1: By the way, speaking of Olivera's are we long from 883 00:43:26,160 --> 00:43:28,760 Speaker 1: one of Cowboy Olivera's kids to make his MMA debut. 884 00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,120 Speaker 1: That guy's got a lot of kids. 885 00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:32,760 Speaker 2: Right, how many kids? Oh? You're right, like the Antonio 886 00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 2: Crimarti of MN. 887 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:34,799 Speaker 1: Yes, that guy. 888 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 2: I don't know if he has ten or not, but 889 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 2: he might have something.

Because 919 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:16,240 Speaker 1: there's reports that it could be O Sean O'Malley versus 920 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,399 Speaker 1: Songy Dong and the Colemane, which is a good fight, 921 00:45:19,480 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: but I don't know if that's the Colemane, but like, 922 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,480 Speaker 1: what do you think the December main event is. 923 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 2: Well, who's available? Oh, could be Morob that's true. 924 00:45:28,120 --> 00:45:32,919 Speaker 1: That's that's that's true. And now pyotor Yana is saying 925 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 1: that he was physically compromised in their first fight. 926 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:37,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that happens a lot. 927 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,240 Speaker 1: Big Gong had a broken rib. It seems against Poeton. 928 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 2: I mean everyone, people, people don't care. I'm not even 929 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 2: saying that they should. I'm just saying it's kind of 930 00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:46,600 Speaker 2: funny that It's like, I mean, I get that there 931 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,439 Speaker 2: are there are always gonna be meaningful differences in case 932 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,759 Speaker 2: to case, but it's just kind of funny. It's like, 933 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 2: oh wow, man. Like one of the lessons I learned 934 00:45:54,440 --> 00:45:57,120 Speaker 2: was Poton was telling the truth when he said, you know, 935 00:45:57,200 --> 00:45:59,200 Speaker 2: he was injured coming into that fight, and no, granted 936 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 2: he said it lay and you know it was, it 937 00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,919 Speaker 2: wasn't quite as immediate. And I think then also changes 938 00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 2: things again, there's always going to be a set of 939 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 2: circumstances that affect it. But then Big Uncle loses and 940 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:10,840 Speaker 2: it's like, oh, I had a broken rib and it's like, no, 941 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:14,080 Speaker 2: you didn't, you fucking sour grapes kill joy. You know, 942 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 2: it's like didn't we just see that, Like guys a 943 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,399 Speaker 2: do this all the time, and then be Poton proved 944 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 2: there's a big difference, like and these things are real 945 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:24,920 Speaker 2: and that they do affect you. It's just kind of 946 00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 2: funny who gets who's the recipient of injury grace and 947 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 2: who isn't. And you know, again it's a broad set 948 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:32,400 Speaker 2: of circumstances that affect it. 949 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:33,839 Speaker 1: But it's just kind of funny to what I mean, 950 00:46:34,640 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 1: everyone's injured, but you signed a fight, you show up 951 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:37,760 Speaker 1: to fight agreed. 952 00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,439 Speaker 2: No, No, I mean I don't have sympathy for Uncle 953 00:46:39,480 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 2: Lfe because A, to your point you agreed, and then 954 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:44,520 Speaker 2: B I'm not sure would have made a difference. You know, 955 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,680 Speaker 2: it just seemed like Poton had a great idea about 956 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:47,520 Speaker 2: how to pursue that fight. 957 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 1: So yeah, you know angrily yeaheah.

Do you give 990 00:48:47,239 --> 00:48:47,640 Speaker 2: a fuck? 991 00:48:48,160 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 7: No? 992 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 2: Okay, there we go. 993 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 1: Is this the song and dance of the new Usada? 994 00:48:53,239 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 1: Is this like what we're doing? Like it's it? 995 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:58,840 Speaker 2: I mean, here, here, here's the thing. Then listen, this 996 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:01,279 Speaker 2: is what you have to understand about this scenario. Right 997 00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 2: by the way, BC, did you see that PFL cut 998 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:05,960 Speaker 2: ties with Usada? Did you see that? 999 00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:07,520 Speaker 1: I did not see that. Wow. 1000 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:09,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, they cut ties with Usada. So like Usada is 1001 00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 2: on their way out the sport. I want to point out, 1002 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:15,279 Speaker 2: years and years after I declared all the things that 1003 00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:18,359 Speaker 2: were going to happen, in fact did happen. Sure enough, 1004 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 2: now they're gone. BC. If I have a curse in 1005 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:23,680 Speaker 2: my life, it's sometimes I'm wrong, and you know, terribly. 1006 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,759 Speaker 2: So like when I said Devin Haney was going to 1007 00:49:25,800 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 2: tune rine up like a guitar that you know, we 1008 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,560 Speaker 2: have bad moments, but when I'm right. One of my 1009 00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 2: other problems is that I'm right too early, and that 1010 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:33,839 Speaker 2: was one of those cases. But let me just make 1011 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:38,320 Speaker 2: this point. There is a benefit to what the UFC's 1012 00:49:38,400 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 2: new system offers relative to what USADA offered. Namely, the 1013 00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:48,080 Speaker 2: system is much more humane relative to you Sada. Right, 1014 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:52,800 Speaker 2: the punishments are not as onerous, the declarations publicly of 1015 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,320 Speaker 2: who has tested without really having the chance for that 1016 00:49:56,440 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 2: athlete to defend themselves. That doesn't happen anymore, right, And 1017 00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,239 Speaker 2: there's just a series of ways they've they don't have 1018 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:07,320 Speaker 2: like strict liability in the same kind of way that 1019 00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:09,520 Speaker 2: they do with USADA. Like there's just a lot of 1020 00:50:09,800 --> 00:50:14,799 Speaker 2: humanity and athlete care relative to the way you SADA did. 1021 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 2: It baked into this new system, and when they launched it, 1022 00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 2: you know, they were trying to solve for some of 1023 00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:23,080 Speaker 2: those problems, Like it just it created a lot of 1024 00:50:23,160 --> 00:50:26,399 Speaker 2: friction with media, created a lot of friction with their 1025 00:50:26,600 --> 00:50:29,440 Speaker 2: own roster of athletes. Like it just created was a problem. 1026 00:50:29,520 --> 00:50:31,960 Speaker 2: They they didn't want it anymore, to say nothing of 1027 00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:35,160 Speaker 2: like the fact that Yousada just seized themselves as vice 1028 00:50:35,239 --> 00:50:37,879 Speaker 2: cops and they wanted the UFC to help them get there, 1029 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:41,480 Speaker 2: and so they no longer had faith in them Organizationally, 1030 00:50:42,560 --> 00:50:44,839 Speaker 2: what I'm trying to make is that's what it's better 1031 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:48,240 Speaker 2: for relative to the way that it was with Yousada. However, 1032 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:53,160 Speaker 2: it is also an in house system. You know, why 1033 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:57,120 Speaker 2: would a system be in house at a for the promoter? 1034 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,319 Speaker 2: And you might be like, well, you know, doesn't NFL 1035 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,840 Speaker 2: have their own house. Yes, but that's what something they negotiate. 1036 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,880 Speaker 2: I mean, there's independent agencies they do for testing and whatnot, 1037 00:51:04,920 --> 00:51:07,480 Speaker 2: but it's something that they negotiate with the athletes, Like 1038 00:51:08,239 --> 00:51:10,480 Speaker 2: all of the protocols are put in place with their 1039 00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:14,360 Speaker 2: safety and their privacy rights in mind, and the punishments 1040 00:51:14,360 --> 00:51:16,960 Speaker 2: are negotiated down for all these other reasons, like it's 1041 00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 2: a there's a handshake that goes on here. You don't 1042 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,279 Speaker 2: have that. And even without that, again, it's still more 1043 00:51:22,360 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 2: humane than Yousata system. But any system that the UFC, dude, like, 1044 00:51:26,680 --> 00:51:30,920 Speaker 2: what about what anyone understands about the Ultimate Fighting Championship 1045 00:51:31,000 --> 00:51:33,520 Speaker 2: and the way they do business is divorced from the 1046 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:37,399 Speaker 2: idea of having maximum control. It's just every it's every 1047 00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 2: it's part of their organizational DNA. They want to have 1048 00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:42,800 Speaker 2: maximum control over the media, they want to have maximum 1049 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:46,840 Speaker 2: control over their roster, maximum control over there the market. 1050 00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,200 Speaker 2: And again some of that works and some of that doesn't. 1051 00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,560 Speaker 2: But that's that's what they're all. That's their orientation. And 1052 00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:55,480 Speaker 2: so people like, oh, wow, isn't it convenient that like 1053 00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:58,920 Speaker 2: Connor's available, Guys, it's an in house system? Like what 1054 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:01,600 Speaker 2: what did any buddy expect it to be? I mean, 1055 00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,120 Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not telling people they don't have a 1056 00:52:04,200 --> 00:52:06,960 Speaker 2: right to feel that that's not a great system. But 1057 00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:09,480 Speaker 2: when they announced this system and they announced it as 1058 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 2: being in house, these kinds of things at a bare minimum, 1059 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:15,879 Speaker 2: I cannot declare to you, oh this was done underhanded BC. 1060 00:52:16,000 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 2: That's really not my point, but you lose the presumption of, oh, well, 1061 00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:24,480 Speaker 2: this is ordinary business because it is in house, and 1062 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 2: those things are worth some level of interrogation. It's just, 1063 00:52:27,719 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 2: you know, do we really think the UFC is going 1064 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:33,520 Speaker 2: to keep a system of athlete control and like you know, 1065 00:52:33,600 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 2: public image maintenance in house? And it really undercut their 1066 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 2: ability to do business. That seems unlikely to me Yeah. 1067 00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:45,799 Speaker 1: The CSID press release was quoted the say McGregor miss 1068 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 1: three attempted biological sample collections within the twelve month period 1069 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:52,480 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty four, which constitutes a violation of the 1070 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 1: UFC's anti doping policy. Athletes are required to provide accurate 1071 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,440 Speaker 1: whereabouts information at all times so they can be contracted 1072 00:52:59,480 --> 00:53:03,560 Speaker 1: and submit to biological sample collections without prior warning. McGregor's 1073 00:53:03,600 --> 00:53:07,680 Speaker 1: mistest occurred on June thirteenth, September nineteenth, and September twentieth, 1074 00:53:07,960 --> 00:53:11,200 Speaker 1: and we're each classified as whereabouts failures. By Sea said 1075 00:53:11,600 --> 00:53:14,600 Speaker 1: under the new UFC anti doping policy, Luke that June 1076 00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: thirteenth one seems to align with the lead in to 1077 00:53:18,160 --> 00:53:20,759 Speaker 1: that International Fight Week main event later that month that 1078 00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 1: he was scheduled in his return against Michael Chandler. The 1079 00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,799 Speaker 1: broken toe got him out of it. Do you think 1080 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:27,239 Speaker 1: it was a broken toe or do you think it 1081 00:53:27,440 --> 00:53:31,200 Speaker 1: was three hundred and seventy five consecutive days of going 1082 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,400 Speaker 1: ham at night? You know what I'm saying. After he 1083 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,840 Speaker 1: definitely was dirty during the roadhouse filming. Let's be honest 1084 00:53:36,880 --> 00:53:37,160 Speaker 1: about that. 1085 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I mean again, remember he had a 1086 00:53:39,239 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 2: traumatic injury and I thought that day up, he'll probably 1087 00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 2: never fight again, and I mean, if he does, god 1088 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,680 Speaker 2: only knows what condition he's going to be in. I 1089 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:49,080 Speaker 2: didn't care that he used medicinally, assuming that's what it was, 1090 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,680 Speaker 2: that there was some kind of what do you want 1091 00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:56,840 Speaker 2: to call it, monitored pharmaceutical process, I don't really have 1092 00:53:56,880 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 2: an issue with it. He wasn't competing at that time. Yeah, 1093 00:53:59,040 --> 00:54:00,840 Speaker 2: of course you need to tell me what your whereabouts are, 1094 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:02,800 Speaker 2: but he didn't fight during that time. I mean, of 1095 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:05,759 Speaker 2: all the things to be bitter about, Connor McGregor, I 1096 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 2: just feel like this is probably for me, quite close 1097 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:10,960 Speaker 2: to the bottom of the list. It's amazing that like 1098 00:54:11,120 --> 00:54:13,719 Speaker 2: this kind of thing gets a lot of attention, like 1099 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:15,600 Speaker 2: some of his other stuff doesn't. But whatever, we don't 1100 00:54:15,600 --> 00:54:17,839 Speaker 2: have to have that conversation. I'm just pointing out. I'm 1101 00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:22,360 Speaker 2: just pointing out, you know, yes, if you compete in 1102 00:54:22,400 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 2: a system like this, do they need to have your whereabouts? 1103 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:25,279 Speaker 1: Yes? 1104 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:29,120 Speaker 2: H did he fail to do that? Apparently? Should he 1105 00:54:29,200 --> 00:54:32,160 Speaker 2: be punished for it? Obviously, But we should also know 1106 00:54:32,360 --> 00:54:34,000 Speaker 2: that the reason why he may have done that stuff, 1107 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:36,279 Speaker 2: at least initially to the extent that he did again, 1108 00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,439 Speaker 2: we're speculating there could have been a very good reason 1109 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:42,640 Speaker 2: for it. And then, more to the point, this is 1110 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 2: an in house anti doping system. I just think people 1111 00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:46,320 Speaker 2: need to manage their expectations about that. 1112 00:54:47,200 --> 00:54:50,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. Connor did talk this past weekend while promoting BKFC 1113 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:52,920 Speaker 1: that when he does go into camp soon for this 1114 00:54:53,080 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 1: White House return, which probably comes against Michael Chandler, I 1115 00:54:57,040 --> 00:54:59,440 Speaker 1: guess could be an ideas in a trilogy, although some 1116 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 1: seem that's unlikely. He got Charles olivera this week saying 1117 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 1: he'd like to be that opponent. Heck, could it be 1118 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,120 Speaker 1: Max Holloway. We'll have to wait and see. But here's 1119 00:55:07,120 --> 00:55:09,279 Speaker 1: what Gregor're talking about, how he's about to enter that 1120 00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,840 Speaker 1: spartan lifestyle, maybe even put the partying behind him for 1121 00:55:12,920 --> 00:55:13,160 Speaker 1: a bit. 1122 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,719 Speaker 10: Oh, I have eight months and change out to the 1123 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 10: White House event. It's a six month operation, you know. 1124 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,120 Speaker 10: I consider it a six month operation to get ready 1125 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 10: for this about period of isolation for sure, where the 1126 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 10: phone will not be answered. All my people involved with 1127 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,800 Speaker 10: me understand that it is coming. And as I said, 1128 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:32,160 Speaker 10: it's a six month operation. 1129 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:34,239 Speaker 3: I'm under no illusion of what. 1130 00:55:35,719 --> 00:55:36,560 Speaker 5: What lies ahead of me. 1131 00:55:37,120 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 10: In my preparation efforts, the phone will be switched off 1132 00:55:40,120 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 10: and the work will be executed. That's my focus right now, 1133 00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:47,360 Speaker 10: and just eager to climb the steps into being ready 1134 00:55:47,520 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 10: for my return. There's a lot at stake, and I'm 1135 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 10: very excited at the opportunity. I was right there with 1136 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:56,200 Speaker 10: my last one. I was an incredible condition. Just a 1137 00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:58,799 Speaker 10: slight lapse in concentration led to an injury. I wish 1138 00:55:58,880 --> 00:56:01,440 Speaker 10: to correct that and show what I'm about. 1139 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 1: So, Luke, no phone, Let's see if he so. No 1140 00:56:05,120 --> 00:56:08,680 Speaker 1: posting either, No phone, no posting. He's just gonna do 1141 00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:12,520 Speaker 1: that woke as he says. Luke, Look, I mean hate 1142 00:56:12,560 --> 00:56:14,400 Speaker 1: him if you will, and you know he gives you 1143 00:56:14,400 --> 00:56:16,959 Speaker 1: a lot of reasons to His return on the South 1144 00:56:17,080 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: Lawn will be interesting to see. Will it be a 1145 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:22,359 Speaker 1: complete train wreck or just partial Luke, That's that's sort 1146 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 1: of the pull. Or maybe maybe he majestically pulls out 1147 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:28,160 Speaker 1: one of those performances that we used to claim. He's 1148 00:56:28,160 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 1: got one left in him, right. 1149 00:56:30,120 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 2: He definitely needs some good pr say that. 1150 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, very good fighter in his prime. Probably not a 1151 00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,399 Speaker 1: great boyfriend, but you know, we can't judge him all here. 1152 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:44,600 Speaker 1: Let's go to topic number three, and that was from 1153 00:56:44,680 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 1: Tuesdays Dana White Contender series. Thank you very much, We're 1154 00:56:49,840 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 1: a bantamweight war not only entered the fight of the 1155 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:58,279 Speaker 1: year discussion, it's causing some other discussions as well. 1156 00:56:58,440 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 7: Now. 1157 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:01,960 Speaker 1: It's certainly not every week that he DWCS bout will 1158 00:57:02,040 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: have people declaring it a possible fight of the year, 1159 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,240 Speaker 1: let alone the greatest fight of all time, as UFC's 1160 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 1: YouTube channel did. But Ecuador's Audriann Luna Martinetti his three 1161 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 1: round decision win over an absurdly determined Russia's Mark Vologden 1162 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:22,640 Speaker 1: in their bandamweight fight on Tuesday netted both of them 1163 00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:25,800 Speaker 1: UFC contracts. Immediately after the bout, as they were being 1164 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,520 Speaker 1: sent to the hospital, Dana White also gave each of 1165 00:57:28,640 --> 00:57:31,680 Speaker 1: them twenty five thousand dollars bonuses, which is not a 1166 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 1: normal occurrence. Both were, as I mentioned, hospitalized there, Luke. 1167 00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 1: Some were even comparing this to Griffin Bonner one or 1168 00:57:40,160 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 1: because of the cuts in the bleeding Lawler McDonald two 1169 00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:46,840 Speaker 1: now show one more Time along Island, Luke. That UFC 1170 00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 1: post on YouTube that calls it the greatest fight of 1171 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 1: all time. I don't are they saying Dana what greatest 1172 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:56,880 Speaker 1: Dana White Contender Series fight or greatest fight Luke Thomas, 1173 00:57:57,440 --> 00:57:58,880 Speaker 1: how good was this slugfest? 1174 00:58:00,440 --> 00:58:02,600 Speaker 2: Okay, it's not the greatest fight of all time, it's 1175 00:58:02,640 --> 00:58:05,760 Speaker 2: definitely not that. However, I will say something about it 1176 00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:09,320 Speaker 2: that I think is maybe not as far away from 1177 00:58:09,320 --> 00:58:11,800 Speaker 2: that as you might imagine. First of all, easily the 1178 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:16,720 Speaker 2: best fight in Contender Series history period. I mean, that's 1179 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 2: such a I mean, I haven't seen every single one 1180 00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,760 Speaker 2: of them, but I've seen a lot of them, and 1181 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 2: the people who have seen every single one of them 1182 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 2: also think that this is the best fight in Contender 1183 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 2: Series history. I just can't imagine what else it would be. 1184 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,560 Speaker 2: So on top of that, BC round two. Round two 1185 00:58:33,720 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 2: is easily easily easily the best round in Contender Series history. 1186 00:58:39,160 --> 00:58:40,520 Speaker 2: So first of all, let's just be clear about that 1187 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 2: best fight in Contender Series history, best round in Contender 1188 00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 2: Series history. And what I'm also going to say is, BC, 1189 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 2: you have to throw in vollog Dean at least onto 1190 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:53,520 Speaker 2: the list of the best fighters to lose on the 1191 00:58:53,600 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 2: Contender Series, because dude, did he not look real polished, 1192 00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:58,680 Speaker 2: especially in round one. 1193 00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 1: Dude, the variety of his striking, even while under duress 1194 00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:03,400 Speaker 1: was insane. 1195 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:05,600 Speaker 2: I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe how good it looked. 1196 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 2: You could hear him breathing through everything the right way, 1197 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:10,280 Speaker 2: and his footwork was clean. I was like, Yo, this 1198 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:11,360 Speaker 2: guy is okay. 1199 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 1: He had one of those gouges on his chin, but 1200 00:59:14,040 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: the cutover his eye had different caverns and canyons in Yes, 1201 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:19,760 Speaker 1: it was like when you go to ki. 1202 00:59:19,920 --> 00:59:21,480 Speaker 2: It looked like he got hit with like a rubber 1203 00:59:21,560 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 2: bullet and it the tore flesh out and then the 1204 00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:28,400 Speaker 2: flesh tour in different directions as a consequence. But let 1205 00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:30,479 Speaker 2: me say this, BC, and this is where I maybe 1206 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 2: it gets controversial, but I don't. I don't know. I 1207 00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,919 Speaker 2: don't know how controversial this is. You've seen the fight obviously. 1208 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:37,400 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, I watched it this morning and I was 1209 00:59:37,600 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 1: loving it. 1210 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,080 Speaker 2: Okay, dude, Round two is one of the better rounds 1211 00:59:41,120 --> 00:59:44,520 Speaker 2: I've ever seen ever. Ever, I'll get the fight is 1212 00:59:44,560 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 2: not the best fight because the problem is round three 1213 00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,440 Speaker 2: they were I mean, they were still trying their ass off, 1214 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:51,080 Speaker 2: but it wasn't like, you know, it's a good round. 1215 00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 2: It wasn't an amazing round. Round one was like a 1216 00:59:53,160 --> 00:59:57,000 Speaker 2: very good round. Round two is just one of the 1217 00:59:57,040 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 2: best rounds you'll ever see in mixed martial arts period. Now, 1218 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:03,560 Speaker 2: Long Island, Luke, where are you on this? The round 1219 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:05,920 Speaker 2: two and then the fight More broadly. 1220 01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:08,520 Speaker 6: It's definitely not the greatest fight of all time. It 1221 01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 6: is one thousand percent the greatest Dana White Contender Series 1222 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,280 Speaker 6: fight of all time. Gaff and I were doing a 1223 01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:16,160 Speaker 6: watch along for Live. Shout out to Gaff on one 1224 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,240 Speaker 6: more round fights. He literally thirty seconds into this fight 1225 01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 6: said both these guys are getting a contract, and I said, 1226 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:23,640 Speaker 6: you're out of your mind. I said, one of these 1227 01:00:23,680 --> 01:00:25,800 Speaker 6: guys could get flat lined in two minutes and they're 1228 01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:26,840 Speaker 6: not getting a fucking contract. 1229 01:00:26,960 --> 01:00:29,040 Speaker 2: Dude nailed it. He called that literally right in the 1230 01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:30,800 Speaker 2: beginning of okay, round two one of the best rounds 1231 01:00:30,840 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 2: you've ever seen anywhere. 1232 01:00:32,120 --> 01:00:34,479 Speaker 1: It was, I mean, dude, especially not to stop coming 1233 01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:36,840 Speaker 1: back on each other in the round two. It was insanity. 1234 01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,520 Speaker 6: Just I will say round three slowed down a bit, 1235 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,240 Speaker 6: but if you still just isolated that round, you'd be like. 1236 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 2: Oh, that was a great round. Yes, it's because rounds 1237 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 2: one and two were so chaotic that it it. I 1238 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:51,280 Speaker 2: can't believe volag Dean withstood that barrage of knees in 1239 01:00:51,320 --> 01:00:54,560 Speaker 2: the clench. I could not fucking and then to push 1240 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:59,919 Speaker 2: Martinetti back at the end of round two battered physically bad? 1241 01:01:01,440 --> 01:01:05,800 Speaker 2: Was I dude? It it takes your breath away, like 1242 01:01:05,920 --> 01:01:09,320 Speaker 2: it's that kind of thing. So like they're exaggerating how 1243 01:01:09,360 --> 01:01:12,960 Speaker 2: good the fight overall is, but they're not exaggerating how 1244 01:01:13,080 --> 01:01:14,880 Speaker 2: special parts of it actually. 1245 01:01:15,000 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, the first two rounds, as you mentioned, 1246 01:01:17,280 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: round two just being otherworldly. Long Island Lucer Mountie as 1247 01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 1: the volig Dean was a minus one to eighty betting favorite, 1248 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 1: Martinetti was one plus one thirty. It would go down 1249 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:28,640 Speaker 1: as the unanimous decision twenty nine to twenty eight on 1250 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,920 Speaker 1: all three scorecards, two rounds to one for Martinetti, who 1251 01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:36,360 Speaker 1: showed just as much resolve but wasn't under the same 1252 01:01:36,480 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 1: level of damage. I think we got a couple of 1253 01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 1: pictures on this tweet here of the face of Martinetti 1254 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,840 Speaker 1: there I'm sorry, a volag dean there on the top right. 1255 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:47,000 Speaker 1: I mean that I don't even know how they let 1256 01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 1: him kept fighting with the crevice over his eye. I mean, 1257 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:53,560 Speaker 1: that is beyond permanent scarring. But here's what's crazy. Martinetti 1258 01:01:53,680 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 1: deserved the decision. He got the better of him for 1259 01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 1: the most part, you know, volume wise, and was certainly 1260 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 1: nasty with those lead elbows. But dude, the heart and 1261 01:02:04,240 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 1: resolve that Vologdin showed in defeat was almost the most 1262 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 1: special part of the whole fight. Like, I know, fights 1263 01:02:11,960 --> 01:02:14,160 Speaker 1: like this will take a certain chunk out of your 1264 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 1: lifespan and future in the cage. But am I crazy 1265 01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:20,680 Speaker 1: to say that I'm almost more interested in Vologdine's journey 1266 01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:24,440 Speaker 1: after this loss than I am his partner, who was 1267 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:28,280 Speaker 1: just as you know, just as responsible for this fight 1268 01:02:28,360 --> 01:02:28,960 Speaker 1: being a classic. 1269 01:02:29,120 --> 01:02:31,320 Speaker 2: No, I'm with you. I mean, my heart kind of 1270 01:02:31,400 --> 01:02:34,840 Speaker 2: broke for Vologdin. I'm like, I don't know if I've 1271 01:02:34,880 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 2: seen I mean, the problem was, you know, obviously round 1272 01:02:38,160 --> 01:02:41,160 Speaker 2: two got away from him, and then you know, parts 1273 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 2: of well parts of all three rounds got away from 1274 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 2: the two of them. But there was just enough happening, 1275 01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:48,480 Speaker 2: I think obviously in this in the second round as well, 1276 01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:50,560 Speaker 2: where he was he was in a lot of trouble. Well, 1277 01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,720 Speaker 2: first round, no, no, first rounding was like he dropped 1278 01:02:52,720 --> 01:02:55,280 Speaker 2: Martinetti twice, right, so he won that one was the 1279 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:57,760 Speaker 2: second and the third one that he lost, But dude, 1280 01:02:58,000 --> 01:03:00,320 Speaker 2: Like I said, Man, I mean you could throw Kevin 1281 01:03:00,880 --> 01:03:03,760 Speaker 2: Vichejos on this list as well, like guys who lost 1282 01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 2: on the Contender series. Is because I just was watching 1283 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:09,360 Speaker 2: him and I'm like, this guy has everything you would 1284 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:12,240 Speaker 2: want from a prospect. He has everything. Look how clean 1285 01:03:12,280 --> 01:03:14,840 Speaker 2: is strucking is. Look how well rounded he is, Look 1286 01:03:14,880 --> 01:03:17,240 Speaker 2: how resilient he is. I mean his defense maybe needs 1287 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 2: some work obviously, BC not a perfect fighter, far from it. 1288 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:22,400 Speaker 2: But the reality here's how I feel. I feel like 1289 01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:25,640 Speaker 2: bullet Dean is a more talented fighter. I just felt 1290 01:03:25,640 --> 01:03:29,280 Speaker 2: like Martinetti had you know, you're gonna laugh at the description, 1291 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 2: but he had the eye of the tiger man. 1292 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:33,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, he just would not be the length and the 1293 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,560 Speaker 1: height to that he used, you know, to his advantage 1294 01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:38,600 Speaker 1: even though they were fighting in a phone booth. It 1295 01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:40,880 Speaker 1: was that just that much of that advantage was a 1296 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:43,160 Speaker 1: big part of that. But I know they don't normally 1297 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:45,880 Speaker 1: give bonuses, so Dana giving each twenty five K is 1298 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:48,880 Speaker 1: a special moment. But if this fight is getting the 1299 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:52,480 Speaker 1: love in house and also on social media that it deserves, 1300 01:03:52,520 --> 01:03:55,240 Speaker 1: and it does deserve it, I mean, Luke, like, these 1301 01:03:55,280 --> 01:03:58,200 Speaker 1: guys are probably going to be remembered here no matter 1302 01:03:58,320 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: what they do for the rest of their career. From 1303 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 1: the moment. This is one of those break the bake 1304 01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:05,000 Speaker 1: moments where I wish TK was like, oh, f twenty 1305 01:04:05,120 --> 01:04:08,600 Speaker 1: five k, like here's here's you know, five hundred k each, 1306 01:04:08,760 --> 01:04:12,640 Speaker 1: because they both fought like there was tomorrow, no tomorrow, 1307 01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:15,640 Speaker 1: and and this is you know, I know that, like 1308 01:04:15,840 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 1: this is an incubator where Dana wants to reward the 1309 01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:21,360 Speaker 1: hungry and wants these type of fights. But you're you know, 1310 01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:23,479 Speaker 1: it's rare that you can get these type of fights 1311 01:04:23,520 --> 01:04:26,840 Speaker 1: because both guys have to be so insanely determined. But 1312 01:04:27,560 --> 01:04:30,560 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not crazy. This is a They should 1313 01:04:30,600 --> 01:04:32,080 Speaker 1: be walking out of there with a half million each 1314 01:04:32,160 --> 01:04:35,200 Speaker 1: after that effort. There's insane, just insane, dude. 1315 01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:37,200 Speaker 2: Those two guys would have fought to the death if 1316 01:04:37,240 --> 01:04:40,160 Speaker 2: you let them. Yes, yes, they would have fought to 1317 01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:40,560 Speaker 2: the death. 1318 01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:44,920 Speaker 1: Let's go to a here's Martinetti and exiting the cage. 1319 01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:47,640 Speaker 1: Here's a fan video. You can see just how wobbly 1320 01:04:47,760 --> 01:05:01,840 Speaker 1: he was in victory all thirteen people and that's the 1321 01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:04,840 Speaker 1: guy that won. I know, crazy. And then we got 1322 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,640 Speaker 1: a little busheto backstage. You know, I love moments like this. 1323 01:05:07,840 --> 01:05:11,040 Speaker 1: Let's listen in on these two embracing you. 1324 01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:12,800 Speaker 3: You're very strong, bro. 1325 01:05:13,520 --> 01:05:18,360 Speaker 5: I love you, I love you you, I like you. 1326 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:19,120 Speaker 5: I love you. 1327 01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:24,760 Speaker 3: Yeah you the next, the next, the next fighting yeah 1328 01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:30,000 Speaker 3: you you you say you say thank you for the 1329 01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 3: great great fight. Take coach, Thank you, thank you, coach. 1330 01:05:41,440 --> 01:05:43,440 Speaker 1: Great great moment right there, Long Island. Look when you 1331 01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:45,840 Speaker 1: were you were saying, you were on Gaffs live stream 1332 01:05:45,920 --> 01:05:46,960 Speaker 1: during this. Is that what you're saying? 1333 01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:49,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, we were doing a Contender series watching. 1334 01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,240 Speaker 1: You guys losing your mind in round two just I mean, 1335 01:05:51,360 --> 01:05:52,080 Speaker 1: just going for it. 1336 01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 6: It was sick and again because Gaff called it in 1337 01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,440 Speaker 6: round one. My mind was blowing that. I was like, 1338 01:05:57,480 --> 01:05:59,000 Speaker 6: how did you know this was going to go the 1339 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:00,360 Speaker 6: distance and it would be war? 1340 01:06:00,520 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 2: And they both get a contract? But yeah, dude, great. 1341 01:06:03,400 --> 01:06:05,760 Speaker 1: I gotta give Loris Cenko and Anthony Smith, who were 1342 01:06:05,800 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 1: the analyst, credit because both of them had their own 1343 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:10,640 Speaker 1: sort of moments similar to al Bernstein after round one 1344 01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,760 Speaker 1: of corrals Castillo one on Showtime where he's just like, 1345 01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:16,120 Speaker 1: if this keeps up at the pace we're at, this 1346 01:06:16,200 --> 01:06:18,160 Speaker 1: could be one of the greatest fights we've ever seen. 1347 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,720 Speaker 1: They felt that also. Man, I'd love to have live 1348 01:06:20,760 --> 01:06:22,439 Speaker 1: stream this fight. I mean I would have gone full 1349 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,760 Speaker 1: Pa we Away Luke Thomas style. That would have been Wow, wow, 1350 01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,360 Speaker 1: what a moment. All right, there you go, Hey everybody, 1351 01:06:28,720 --> 01:06:32,000 Speaker 1: I know we're talking about cage fighting, but football's back. 1352 01:06:32,040 --> 01:06:34,600 Speaker 1: It's the fall, it's the autumn, and well, you know 1353 01:06:34,640 --> 01:06:38,200 Speaker 1: what also is back. Your shot to win big and 1354 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:41,800 Speaker 1: with DraftKings Pick six, the official daily fantasy partner of 1355 01:06:41,840 --> 01:06:45,439 Speaker 1: the NFL, your game day instincts can score you real 1356 01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:49,120 Speaker 1: money fast. Now here's the play. You just pick more 1357 01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:52,360 Speaker 1: or less on two or more player stats, breakout rookies 1358 01:06:52,400 --> 01:06:55,400 Speaker 1: to elite qbs, whoever you want, and you can unlock 1359 01:06:55,480 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: the upside that every snap brings. The better your calls, 1360 01:06:59,440 --> 01:07:02,720 Speaker 1: the bigger your payout. In fact, as we look at 1361 01:07:02,960 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 1: what's coming up this weekend in the NFL, Luke's Washington Commanders. 1362 01:07:08,000 --> 01:07:09,720 Speaker 1: Are we back this week? Luke? Are we back in 1363 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:10,200 Speaker 1: a big way? 1364 01:07:10,520 --> 01:07:12,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? We should be. That Jayden Daniels is back after well, 1365 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,520 Speaker 2: he played in the last game against the Chargers. We 1366 01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:17,160 Speaker 2: weren't sure, you know, when he was gonna be back 1367 01:07:17,160 --> 01:07:19,080 Speaker 2: after injury. He looked pretty good, all. 1368 01:07:19,080 --> 01:07:21,320 Speaker 1: Right, I mean look when you're looking at the La 1369 01:07:21,480 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 1: Rams at the Baltimore Ravens, and I'm telling you, Matthew 1370 01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:26,600 Speaker 1: Stafford two hundred and fifty eight and a half yards, 1371 01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:28,480 Speaker 1: are you going more or less against that Ravens? 1372 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:35,280 Speaker 2: D ooh, I'm going to go more. I think Matthew 1373 01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,320 Speaker 2: Stafford and the team might carve him up. You know, 1374 01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:39,720 Speaker 2: Ravens are looking a little more beatable this year than 1375 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 2: I thought they would be to be brought. To be 1376 01:07:41,160 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 2: honest with you, the Chiefs also look terrible. I can't 1377 01:07:43,840 --> 01:07:44,840 Speaker 2: believe how bad they look. 1378 01:07:45,400 --> 01:07:47,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, well they got to bounce back in a big 1379 01:07:47,120 --> 01:07:50,480 Speaker 1: way with Patrick Mahomes, who has a more or less 1380 01:07:50,480 --> 01:07:53,040 Speaker 1: of two hundred and sixty six and a half passing 1381 01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:57,200 Speaker 1: yards when the Chiefs welcome the Detroit Lions. So I'm 1382 01:07:57,240 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 1: probably going more on the bounce back there, Luke. Although 1383 01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,439 Speaker 1: a lot of people are learning about Travis Kelcey's pipe, 1384 01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:05,200 Speaker 1: apparently from this new Taylor Swift album, are you keeping 1385 01:08:05,240 --> 01:08:06,600 Speaker 1: the females in your life away from that? 1386 01:08:07,680 --> 01:08:10,400 Speaker 2: What is the story of his pipe? Apparently? 1387 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:12,200 Speaker 1: I mean we should probably get into that offline. My 1388 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:14,200 Speaker 1: bad on that one, Luke. What I did want to 1389 01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:17,000 Speaker 1: tell the people about is the kickoff bonus because new 1390 01:08:17,080 --> 01:08:21,479 Speaker 1: Draftking customers can get fifty dollars in bonus picks with 1391 01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,800 Speaker 1: just a five dollars entry on your first pick set 1392 01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:26,000 Speaker 1: Luke tell. 1393 01:08:25,920 --> 01:08:27,600 Speaker 2: Them what to do here, all right, that's right.

And I mean 1420 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 2: that sincerely. 1421 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 1: Well, now, the thirteen year old girls are going to 1422 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:47,479 Speaker 1: learn something about life from the new album, is what 1423 01:09:47,560 --> 01:09:47,800 Speaker 1: I hear. 1424 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:49,639 Speaker 2: Oh she's talking about getting dicked down? 1425 01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, all right, Hey, let's keep the show rolling 1426 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:58,080 Speaker 1: and hit you right between the eyes with topic number four. 1427 01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:01,679 Speaker 1: One of the biggest stars in boxing, the Mexican Monster himself, 1428 01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:04,559 Speaker 1: David Benavidez, has been in the news as he continues 1429 01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:07,640 Speaker 1: to make the media rounds ahead of November's return on 1430 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,839 Speaker 1: the Ring Champion or Ring magazine card Excuse Me against 1431 01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:14,320 Speaker 1: Anthony Yard in a series of interviews with everyone from 1432 01:10:14,360 --> 01:10:16,880 Speaker 1: all the Smoke Fights ring champs to Fight heb TV. 1433 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:21,000 Speaker 1: Benavida shared a number of interesting updates, including he's done 1434 01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:23,919 Speaker 1: at one sixty eight, even if for Budd or Canelo, 1435 01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:28,040 Speaker 1: he will move up to cruiserweights sooner than later, and 1436 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:31,760 Speaker 1: he plans to retire in fifteen years as a heavyweight. 1437 01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 1: He also teased the possibility of leaving PBC and Sampson 1438 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:39,919 Speaker 1: Promotion shortly to start his own promotional company, Luke, considering 1439 01:10:40,040 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 1: we haven't yet seen him at his new division of 1440 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:45,599 Speaker 1: one seventy five against the two all timers b wall 1441 01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:50,320 Speaker 1: Better Viev, how confident are you, given Benavidez's handspeed in 1442 01:10:50,439 --> 01:10:54,520 Speaker 1: boxing ability, that he can have the same success potentially 1443 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:58,040 Speaker 1: here at cruiserweight and heavyweight as his career continues. 1444 01:10:59,760 --> 01:11:04,840 Speaker 2: I'm a little bit more skeptical of that maybe. So 1445 01:11:05,080 --> 01:11:08,720 Speaker 2: he's had two fights at light heavyweight, correct, BC, He's 1446 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:13,920 Speaker 2: had the Vosdik fight and then the Morel fight. If 1447 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 2: there's a common denominator between them, as first of all, 1448 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:18,280 Speaker 2: he won both, so he's still undefeated. He's just twenty 1449 01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:20,519 Speaker 2: eight years old. BC. We forget that at twenty eight 1450 01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:23,160 Speaker 2: he's still like just now entering his athletic prime in 1451 01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 2: certain ways. So I want to like preface this by saying, 1452 01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:30,320 Speaker 2: to a degree we should be very excited about what 1453 01:11:30,439 --> 01:11:32,719 Speaker 2: he can do and not limit him. At the same time, 1454 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:35,880 Speaker 2: all we have is the evidence that he has given 1455 01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:39,920 Speaker 2: to us to evaluate. Maybe someone else's reading of the 1456 01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:42,479 Speaker 2: evidence tells them something else, but mine tells me, at 1457 01:11:42,600 --> 01:11:46,880 Speaker 2: least for now, some caution about how far he can scale. 1458 01:11:46,960 --> 01:11:50,920 Speaker 2: This is warranted because he was better than Vosdik, He 1459 01:11:51,000 --> 01:11:53,400 Speaker 2: was better than Morel. The Morrell grut was a grudge match. 1460 01:11:54,000 --> 01:11:56,439 Speaker 2: The Morel one BC was more impressive to me than 1461 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:58,280 Speaker 2: the Vosdik one, in part because of the quality of 1462 01:11:58,360 --> 01:12:01,439 Speaker 2: opposition and the nature of the fight. Here's the point 1463 01:12:01,439 --> 01:12:03,280 Speaker 2: I'm trying to make, though. At sixty eight and down, 1464 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:05,280 Speaker 2: it felt like, yeah, he didn't have one punch power, 1465 01:12:05,640 --> 01:12:06,840 Speaker 2: but he could get you out of there if he 1466 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:09,439 Speaker 2: needed to. Caleb Plant, I know, survived, but I mean 1467 01:12:09,520 --> 01:12:12,720 Speaker 2: it was really quite difficult. And then Demetrius Andreide, I 1468 01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 2: mean he fell apart quickly after what round five or six, 1469 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 2: whatever it was that didn't happen at seventy five. They 1470 01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:23,880 Speaker 2: were much sturdier. So here's what I'm trying to say. 1471 01:12:23,960 --> 01:12:26,680 Speaker 2: On the one hand, BC, he won both. He's just 1472 01:12:26,760 --> 01:12:30,040 Speaker 2: twenty eight years old. I do believe there's room for optimism. 1473 01:12:30,520 --> 01:12:32,320 Speaker 2: But when you're saying things like yeah, I'm going to 1474 01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:36,720 Speaker 2: go to cruiserweight and then you end at heavyweight, I 1475 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:38,960 Speaker 2: think I don't know why it's unfair to have a 1476 01:12:39,080 --> 01:12:41,759 Speaker 2: question to be able to say what has he shown 1477 01:12:41,960 --> 01:12:45,120 Speaker 2: to this point that makes you believe that those are 1478 01:12:45,479 --> 01:12:47,920 Speaker 2: very likely places he could end up doing great work. 1479 01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:49,400 Speaker 2: I don't know what that would be. Maybe you have 1480 01:12:49,439 --> 01:12:50,040 Speaker 2: a different read. 1481 01:12:50,200 --> 01:12:53,240 Speaker 1: I mean I would say physical size, meaning height and build. 1482 01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:56,720 Speaker 1: I would say definitely, that handspeed, definitely, the fact that 1483 01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:59,720 Speaker 1: he does have a pure boxing ability now he's able 1484 01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:02,479 Speaker 1: to it's mixed that at sixty eight and seventy five 1485 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 1: with a pressure predator style behind his high guard. But 1486 01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:08,760 Speaker 1: what do we always praise him for his ability defensively 1487 01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 1: to be offensive the whole time without welcoming back a 1488 01:13:12,520 --> 01:13:17,439 Speaker 1: ton of offense. I don't know. And he's hungry too, 1489 01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:19,960 Speaker 1: I mean, the whole key of this segment is that 1490 01:13:20,120 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 1: he doesn't want to cut down anymore for the big names. 1491 01:13:23,200 --> 01:13:25,280 Speaker 1: In fact, let's listen to that sound first, here's Marcos 1492 01:13:25,360 --> 01:13:29,200 Speaker 1: Vegas a Fight Hub TV talking to Benavidez talking about 1493 01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:32,799 Speaker 1: that tweet from Turkey who said, right after Crawford be Canelo, 1494 01:13:33,240 --> 01:13:35,479 Speaker 1: can Benavidez still make one sixty eight? 1495 01:13:36,000 --> 01:13:37,479 Speaker 2: Could you still make one sixty eight? 1496 01:13:37,560 --> 01:13:38,280 Speaker 3: Is that possibility? 1497 01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:38,559 Speaker 5: See? 1498 01:13:38,560 --> 01:13:38,680 Speaker 3: Bro? 1499 01:13:38,800 --> 01:13:40,720 Speaker 11: My plan is after this fight, I want to go 1500 01:13:40,760 --> 01:13:45,479 Speaker 11: down in one fifty four. No, Ro, Honestly, I'm done 1501 01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:47,800 Speaker 11: with Cruiserly, you know what, I want to take this 1502 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:52,160 Speaker 11: opportunity though yes, I say cruively, I want to take 1503 01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:55,080 Speaker 11: this opportunity to you know, congratulate Crawford. You know, he 1504 01:13:55,200 --> 01:13:57,240 Speaker 11: put a hell of her performance. He's up there in 1505 01:13:57,280 --> 01:13:59,320 Speaker 11: the Mount rushmore of the greatest fighters of all time. 1506 01:13:59,800 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 11: And you know, let Crawford do his thing. 1507 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:02,479 Speaker 7: Bro. 1508 01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:03,560 Speaker 11: You know, at the end the day, I have no 1509 01:14:03,640 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 11: interest in fighting Crawford. I have no interest in going 1510 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:08,439 Speaker 11: down to one sixty eight. I mean, yeah, it's nice 1511 01:14:08,640 --> 01:14:11,240 Speaker 11: that it would be dope winning all titles, but I'm 1512 01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:12,880 Speaker 11: way past that on one sixty eight. You know, I 1513 01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:14,960 Speaker 11: found on any reason I wouldn't even go down to 1514 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:17,040 Speaker 11: one sixty eight for Canelo. And I'm just being real 1515 01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:19,360 Speaker 11: with you, you know, And let Crawford do his thing. 1516 01:14:19,479 --> 01:14:22,840 Speaker 11: Let him have is you know, do you know, let 1517 01:14:22,880 --> 01:14:24,600 Speaker 11: him I want to give his flowers. 1518 01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:25,519 Speaker 5: Man, because he's a great fighter. 1519 01:14:25,600 --> 01:14:25,720 Speaker 4: Man. 1520 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:27,960 Speaker 11: When there's no other fighters coming up from one forty 1521 01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:31,000 Speaker 11: seven to beat a type of fighter like Canelo at 1522 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:33,200 Speaker 11: one sixty eight, you know, when Crawford, you know, he's 1523 01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:35,360 Speaker 11: one of the greatest of all times. So you know, 1524 01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:37,320 Speaker 11: I have no interest in going down to one sixty eight. 1525 01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:40,560 Speaker 11: I'm not saying I'm scared of Crawford or whatever, you know, 1526 01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:43,000 Speaker 11: but Crawford is a man on one sixty eight. 1527 01:14:43,040 --> 01:14:43,760 Speaker 2: That's his white class. 1528 01:14:43,800 --> 01:14:45,040 Speaker 5: I'm done with one sixty eight. 1529 01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:48,080 Speaker 1: So look, I kind of like his stance here. I've 1530 01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:50,560 Speaker 1: always liked his stance of like, I've done everything I 1531 01:14:50,600 --> 01:14:52,360 Speaker 1: could to get Canelo and he doesn't want it. So 1532 01:14:52,439 --> 01:14:55,360 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit around and wait and and you know, 1533 01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:58,920 Speaker 1: not only stop his own development in terms of sitting 1534 01:14:58,920 --> 01:15:01,080 Speaker 1: around and wait, you know, not taking other big fights. 1535 01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 2: What did he do? 1536 01:15:01,560 --> 01:15:03,840 Speaker 1: He went to seventy five, fought a former champion of 1537 01:15:03,880 --> 01:15:06,920 Speaker 1: Vosdik fault Morel now has a title that he has 1538 01:15:06,960 --> 01:15:10,920 Speaker 1: been upgraded with and is looking for big fights. I 1539 01:15:11,160 --> 01:15:14,200 Speaker 1: like it mostly because he realizes he'll just compromise himself 1540 01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,840 Speaker 1: physically by cutting back down. You know, you could see 1541 01:15:16,840 --> 01:15:18,800 Speaker 1: a guy like him go no, I want the money 1542 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,400 Speaker 1: and fame against Crawford. I'll do whatever it takes physically, 1543 01:15:21,880 --> 01:15:23,720 Speaker 1: but there's going to be a diminished version of him 1544 01:15:23,720 --> 01:15:25,519 Speaker 1: at the end of the day. I actually like that 1545 01:15:25,600 --> 01:15:29,040 Speaker 1: he's more willing to challenge himself north, whether that's Bevo 1546 01:15:29,120 --> 01:15:32,200 Speaker 1: and better briev in this division or this talk about 1547 01:15:32,320 --> 01:15:36,560 Speaker 1: cruiserweight and heavyweight. Here is Benavidez talking exactly that with 1548 01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 1: Aken Brock about the fact that he believes he's got 1549 01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:41,720 Speaker 1: fifteen of fighting years left in him. 1550 01:15:42,200 --> 01:15:43,920 Speaker 5: I got another fifteen years left him. 1551 01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:46,360 Speaker 2: Years old fighting. 1552 01:15:47,439 --> 01:15:50,320 Speaker 11: I fight two times a year. I'm I'm able to 1553 01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:54,479 Speaker 11: make this money, take care of my investments, and why 1554 01:15:54,560 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 11: would I not want to do that for the next 1555 01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:56,559 Speaker 11: fifteen years? 1556 01:15:57,520 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 5: You know what I mean? 1557 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:00,599 Speaker 11: If I take care of my body, well, bro two 1558 01:16:00,640 --> 01:16:02,920 Speaker 11: fights a year ain't shit, you know what I mean. 1559 01:16:03,120 --> 01:16:06,599 Speaker 11: And you have enough time to recover, You have enough 1560 01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 11: time for yourself, you have enough time for your family, 1561 01:16:09,280 --> 01:16:11,400 Speaker 11: and you have enough time to train hard. This is 1562 01:16:11,479 --> 01:16:13,200 Speaker 11: something I love to do, man, Like I said, like, 1563 01:16:14,120 --> 01:16:17,680 Speaker 11: all I have to do is not you know not 1564 01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:20,640 Speaker 11: fucking drink or do all that dumb shit and just 1565 01:16:20,680 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 11: stay focused. 1566 01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:24,560 Speaker 5: And man, this is honestly, the more focused. 1567 01:16:24,200 --> 01:16:26,360 Speaker 11: I am, the harder I work, the better I feel 1568 01:16:26,360 --> 01:16:28,640 Speaker 11: out for, more connected with God, and like, I just 1569 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 11: feel like I have so much fight left to me. 1570 01:16:30,360 --> 01:16:32,639 Speaker 11: And that's what I'm saying. You know, forty forty, another 1571 01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 11: fifteen years to forty three is really not that, you know, 1572 01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:37,599 Speaker 11: it's not that old. I mean, you see pack y'all. 1573 01:16:38,200 --> 01:16:41,320 Speaker 11: You just fought Mario Barrios. Was he forty seven? Yeah, 1574 01:16:41,479 --> 01:16:43,720 Speaker 11: I see these other great fighters, and it's not impossible. 1575 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 11: It could be done, you know what I mean. So 1576 01:16:45,880 --> 01:16:49,040 Speaker 11: if I program myself, if I condition myself now to 1577 01:16:49,120 --> 01:16:51,080 Speaker 11: think like this until I get there, you know, my 1578 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:54,160 Speaker 11: mindset is that you don't want to box another fifteen years. 1579 01:16:54,200 --> 01:16:56,920 Speaker 5: So you know, we're doing everything right on this side 1580 01:16:57,080 --> 01:16:59,360 Speaker 5: to make sure we accomplish that and fulfill that. 1581 01:17:00,280 --> 01:17:02,360 Speaker 11: I feel like it's gonna be easier too, because the 1582 01:17:02,439 --> 01:17:05,000 Speaker 11: older I get, you know, obviously, the more weight I'm 1583 01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:07,000 Speaker 11: gonna put on, the higher I'm gonna go up. I 1584 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,919 Speaker 11: want to be at you know, as a light heavyweight 1585 01:17:09,960 --> 01:17:12,760 Speaker 11: for maybe for another five years, then cruise a weight 1586 01:17:12,840 --> 01:17:14,240 Speaker 11: another five years and then maybe we. 1587 01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:20,240 Speaker 1: Shout out to the ring champs there Ick and brock Luke. 1588 01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:23,320 Speaker 1: I like this because he's not gonna leave this division 1589 01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:25,280 Speaker 1: before he gets a chance at Bevall or better Beev. 1590 01:17:25,680 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 1: But he's thinking smartly. You don't have to worry about 1591 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:30,360 Speaker 1: the weight if he goes up to heavyweight. Like I mentioned, 1592 01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:33,040 Speaker 1: a lot of that speed in boxing advantage. He's durable, 1593 01:17:33,240 --> 01:17:35,960 Speaker 1: he's hungry. Do you have any idea how marketable this 1594 01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:39,599 Speaker 1: guy could be as the potential first Mexican heavyweight champion? 1595 01:17:41,080 --> 01:17:43,320 Speaker 1: I mean, Andrew Ruiz is Mexican American like him. I 1596 01:17:43,320 --> 01:17:44,920 Speaker 1: don't want to discount when Andy UIs did and win 1597 01:17:44,960 --> 01:17:46,720 Speaker 1: that one fight, but like, if he has a chance 1598 01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:49,280 Speaker 1: to become the undisputed heavyweight champion, this guy could be 1599 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:50,280 Speaker 1: the biggest start in the sport. 1600 01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:52,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, and then coming up from those many weight classes. 1601 01:17:52,720 --> 01:17:54,559 Speaker 2: And we've said this before, he's been one of these 1602 01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:56,080 Speaker 2: guys like you know, if you're an MMA, you may 1603 01:17:56,120 --> 01:17:58,320 Speaker 2: not really feel you appreciate this, but he's kind of 1604 01:17:58,439 --> 01:18:01,400 Speaker 2: slowly cultivating a bit of a cult following is a 1605 01:18:01,439 --> 01:18:03,719 Speaker 2: bit of a strong word, BC, but a genuine following 1606 01:18:03,840 --> 01:18:06,680 Speaker 2: for sure. He's more popular than you might imagine, and 1607 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:08,479 Speaker 2: I do think again, there should be a lot of 1608 01:18:08,560 --> 01:18:11,280 Speaker 2: reasons for his optimism. He's got big goals and I 1609 01:18:11,360 --> 01:18:13,400 Speaker 2: kind of feel for him that that Canelo victory should 1610 01:18:13,400 --> 01:18:16,479 Speaker 2: have been his. BC Canello denied it to him, and 1611 01:18:16,880 --> 01:18:18,600 Speaker 2: so he had You can see why he's like, I 1612 01:18:18,640 --> 01:18:21,720 Speaker 2: can't even maybe he even could make sixty eight. But 1613 01:18:22,200 --> 01:18:24,120 Speaker 2: it's not really about that. He's just trying to chart 1614 01:18:24,240 --> 01:18:27,320 Speaker 2: a path disconnected from that. Then nobody can take away 1615 01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 2: from him, and I understand it. It's just it's a 1616 01:18:29,920 --> 01:18:32,639 Speaker 2: difficult one and curious to see what he does. 1617 01:18:33,080 --> 01:18:35,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I won't play the third video, but he 1618 01:18:35,400 --> 01:18:38,799 Speaker 1: basically says he signed for the Anthony Yard fight before 1619 01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 1: realizing that Better Beev would be on that same card 1620 01:18:41,479 --> 01:18:43,920 Speaker 1: as him. But look, this really feels like a setup 1621 01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:46,360 Speaker 1: for those two to fight next year. You've got Bevall 1622 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:49,720 Speaker 1: coming back from an injury. I mean, what is your 1623 01:18:49,800 --> 01:18:52,840 Speaker 1: confidence level just right now that Better Beef could be 1624 01:18:53,120 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 1: either Bevall or better I'm sorry that Benavetez can beat 1625 01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:59,320 Speaker 1: either Bevall or Better Beev in maybe a year from 1626 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:01,400 Speaker 1: now be the on disputed light heavyweight champion. 1627 01:19:07,840 --> 01:19:13,200 Speaker 2: I I want to see him do it. Yeah, you 1628 01:19:13,280 --> 01:19:14,320 Speaker 2: know what I mean, I'm not even one of the 1629 01:19:14,360 --> 01:19:15,840 Speaker 2: I'm not even these guys like he can't do it. 1630 01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:20,720 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that.

All right, let's 1650 01:20:15,200 --> 01:20:17,880 Speaker 1: hit topic number five. Hey, I didn't think we'd be 1651 01:20:17,960 --> 01:20:20,560 Speaker 1: talking about this. This debate came out of nowhere on 1652 01:20:20,720 --> 01:20:24,559 Speaker 1: boxing Twitter. But the International Boxing Hall of Fame ballots 1653 01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:27,599 Speaker 1: are out for twenty twenty six. Those that are members 1654 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:31,920 Speaker 1: of the BWAA are voting at this time, and suddenly 1655 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:37,720 Speaker 1: we're in debate over one Ganadi Ganadavaevich Glovekin sorry brutalized 1656 01:20:37,760 --> 01:20:40,599 Speaker 1: his middle name, the retired forty three year old former 1657 01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:44,599 Speaker 1: two time unified middleweight champion, and what started off as 1658 01:20:44,680 --> 01:20:48,040 Speaker 1: a few left field comments that felt like from Ryan 1659 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:51,200 Speaker 1: Garcia during the Inside the Ring show turned into a 1660 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:55,000 Speaker 1: multi day boxing Twitter debate that I'm shocked we even 1661 01:20:55,080 --> 01:20:55,960 Speaker 1: went this far with. 1662 01:20:56,240 --> 01:20:56,400 Speaker 4: Now. 1663 01:20:56,560 --> 01:21:00,160 Speaker 1: The critics are Cidey Chippleg's lack of victories over for 1664 01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:03,719 Speaker 1: pound rank fighters or Hall of Fame fighters during his career, 1665 01:21:04,120 --> 01:21:06,840 Speaker 1: despite the fact that he was openly ducked by all 1666 01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:09,439 Speaker 1: of his contemporary champions and Hall of famers like Sergio 1667 01:21:09,520 --> 01:21:12,400 Speaker 1: Martinez and Miguel Cota, and forced to wait out two 1668 01:21:12,560 --> 01:21:16,000 Speaker 1: years before finally facing Canelo at age thirty five and 1669 01:21:16,120 --> 01:21:20,200 Speaker 1: then suffering two very disputed outcomes. I know that second 1670 01:21:20,280 --> 01:21:24,960 Speaker 1: fight was very close. Still, there remains a loud minority 1671 01:21:25,040 --> 01:21:27,599 Speaker 1: of boxing critics on social media who believe that Triple 1672 01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:30,519 Speaker 1: G is somehow not worthy of a spot in the 1673 01:21:30,600 --> 01:21:33,200 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame. Now, the votes for the balloting will 1674 01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:36,719 Speaker 1: be released in December, and Triple G headlines what's considered 1675 01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,280 Speaker 1: a weak ballot for twenty twenty six, including fellow first 1676 01:21:40,320 --> 01:21:45,400 Speaker 1: timers the late Vernon Forest and Stevie Collins. Luke, We've 1677 01:21:45,439 --> 01:21:48,200 Speaker 1: talked a little bit about this offline from what you 1678 01:21:48,400 --> 01:21:51,880 Speaker 1: know of Triple G's run. Is there any element of 1679 01:21:51,960 --> 01:21:55,680 Speaker 1: this argument in your eyes that holds up to the 1680 01:21:55,800 --> 01:22:00,120 Speaker 1: idea that somehow, maybe Triple G, despite retiring after that 1681 01:22:00,160 --> 01:22:02,559 Speaker 1: Canelo trilogy with a record of forty two to two 1682 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:07,120 Speaker 1: and one with thirty seven KOs and tied for the 1683 01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:10,719 Speaker 1: middleweight record with Bernard Hopkins with twenty career title defenses, 1684 01:22:11,479 --> 01:22:12,719 Speaker 1: isn't hof worthy? 1685 01:22:13,400 --> 01:22:15,839 Speaker 2: Can we can we start this conversation where it starts 1686 01:22:16,520 --> 01:22:19,000 Speaker 2: before we can get to any of this, which is, 1687 01:22:19,240 --> 01:22:22,920 Speaker 2: who gives a flying fuck what Ryan Garcia thinks about anything? 1688 01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:27,559 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean, I mean this genuinely, like Ryan 1689 01:22:27,640 --> 01:22:29,400 Speaker 2: Garcia has spent the lot I know he's in a 1690 01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:32,439 Speaker 2: better place now. Good. He's got a long way to go. 1691 01:22:33,160 --> 01:22:35,800 Speaker 2: But he's spent the last couple of years trying to 1692 01:22:36,000 --> 01:22:40,000 Speaker 2: do and say the most horrific shit he possibly could. 1693 01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:41,960 Speaker 2: He has not made amends for it. I mean, I 1694 01:22:42,040 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 2: know he's tried a couple of half assed attempts, but 1695 01:22:44,479 --> 01:22:47,360 Speaker 2: they are pathetic and more to the point, even without that, 1696 01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:50,519 Speaker 2: since when has he ever said anything that anyone ever 1697 01:22:50,640 --> 01:22:56,480 Speaker 2: found intelligent? Ever? Like? What what what about Ryan Garcia's 1698 01:22:56,520 --> 01:22:59,599 Speaker 2: boxing history, knowledge or knowledge of the Hall of Fame? 1699 01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:02,599 Speaker 2: Has he ever flexed in such a way that merits 1700 01:23:02,680 --> 01:23:06,200 Speaker 2: this kind of response. It's bizarre to me. Like he's 1701 01:23:06,400 --> 01:23:10,040 Speaker 2: not an interesting or otherwise intelligent person. He has He's 1702 01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:13,439 Speaker 2: a disturbed person. So like the fact that him getting 1703 01:23:13,479 --> 01:23:16,040 Speaker 2: on this show and then saying this has spurred this 1704 01:23:16,160 --> 01:23:20,160 Speaker 2: kind of conversation, to me is wild. All right, putting 1705 01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:22,919 Speaker 2: that aside, I mean, I realize that's the genesis of everything. 1706 01:23:23,240 --> 01:23:24,400 Speaker 2: Let's say, at least can. 1707 01:23:24,320 --> 01:23:26,160 Speaker 1: We start here, Luke, Then let's start here and listen 1708 01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:28,799 Speaker 1: to it, because when Ryan Garcia did list this started 1709 01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:31,760 Speaker 1: at the shotgun was fired. In fact, I didn't think 1710 01:23:31,760 --> 01:23:33,920 Speaker 1: we need to bring in Quervo because this was legitimately 1711 01:23:34,000 --> 01:23:43,200 Speaker 1: some shots fired, Shots fired brought to you by Cuervo. 1712 01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:46,360 Speaker 1: Now's a good time to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. 1713 01:23:46,600 --> 01:23:49,160 Speaker 1: Here is the Inside the Ring show hosted by Max 1714 01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:52,439 Speaker 1: Kellerman and Mike Coppinger with Ryan Garcia as the special guest. 1715 01:23:52,520 --> 01:23:56,559 Speaker 7: Talking about this, well one Tribaji had no really great victories. 1716 01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:58,560 Speaker 9: I mean, what do you be? 1717 01:23:59,320 --> 01:24:01,720 Speaker 2: You know, a lot of people think he won the 1718 01:24:01,720 --> 01:24:05,000 Speaker 2: first fight, was a great fighter, but he didn't. Nobody didn't. 1719 01:24:08,080 --> 01:24:08,240 Speaker 1: You know. 1720 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:09,920 Speaker 7: The thing what I will give him, though, is he's 1721 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:12,040 Speaker 7: he was one of the superstars in boxing at a 1722 01:24:12,080 --> 01:24:13,960 Speaker 7: certain time for for a long time. I will give 1723 01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:15,880 Speaker 7: him that. But for me, I think it's just a 1724 01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:17,599 Speaker 7: little hard for me to put somebody in the hall 1725 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:19,840 Speaker 7: of fame. Like to say hall of fame, I means 1726 01:24:19,920 --> 01:24:21,160 Speaker 7: like dang, Like what. 1727 01:24:21,240 --> 01:24:22,960 Speaker 2: About telling the story of the era? 1728 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,679 Speaker 8: You could not tell the story of an era without 1729 01:24:25,720 --> 01:24:26,560 Speaker 8: including triple G. 1730 01:24:27,439 --> 01:24:27,920 Speaker 5: What about that? 1731 01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,360 Speaker 2: Do you do you subscribe to that hall of fame theory? 1732 01:24:30,920 --> 01:24:31,120 Speaker 6: I do? 1733 01:24:31,360 --> 01:24:31,519 Speaker 2: I do. 1734 01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:33,800 Speaker 7: I mean, I do see that. But we're talking about 1735 01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 7: hall of fame. We're not talking about eras you know. 1736 01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:37,840 Speaker 7: I'm talking about like overall all of boxing, you know, 1737 01:24:37,840 --> 01:24:40,680 Speaker 7: I mean, I just don't see him as a Hall 1738 01:24:40,760 --> 01:24:42,679 Speaker 7: of Fame. Yeah, I can't give him that nod. 1739 01:24:42,520 --> 01:24:44,240 Speaker 2: But hey, that's a legitimate point. 1740 01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:47,559 Speaker 11: Was around back then when he was writing because autist 1741 01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:48,519 Speaker 11: dunt wuldn't have happen me. 1742 01:24:48,520 --> 01:24:52,160 Speaker 1: Find out, So Luke, it wasn't just Ryan Garcia. By 1743 01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:55,280 Speaker 1: the way, this started an avalanche of people coming out 1744 01:24:55,320 --> 01:24:57,360 Speaker 1: and just being like, I agree with him, this guy's 1745 01:24:57,439 --> 01:25:02,320 Speaker 1: overrated from from from the merit standpoint, Is there an 1746 01:25:02,439 --> 01:25:04,000 Speaker 1: argument against triple G in your eyes? 1747 01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:06,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I like how what Ryan says is in 1748 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:09,880 Speaker 2: no way an argument for anything. Because what he never does, 1749 01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:11,479 Speaker 2: and what I'm going to ask you to do, BC, 1750 01:25:11,760 --> 01:25:15,760 Speaker 2: is he keeps saying things like these are criteria that matter, 1751 01:25:15,880 --> 01:25:19,880 Speaker 2: without ever establishing what is the baseline of achievement? What 1752 01:25:20,000 --> 01:25:23,400 Speaker 2: are the markers the significant markers of achievement that we 1753 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,560 Speaker 2: have to evaluate in order to judge someone's worthiness or 1754 01:25:26,720 --> 01:25:31,160 Speaker 2: otherwise eligibility for these considerations. He never does that. He 1755 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,880 Speaker 2: just says things like, well he didn't beat anyone great, okay, Well, 1756 01:25:33,960 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 2: to what extent does he need to? To what extent 1757 01:25:36,120 --> 01:25:38,160 Speaker 2: does that matter? To what extent is that even true. 1758 01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:41,280 Speaker 2: He doesn't tell you. So BC, let's actually start the 1759 01:25:41,320 --> 01:25:44,479 Speaker 2: conversation in this particular case where it starts, what are 1760 01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:48,000 Speaker 2: the relevant benchmarks for consideration that we can now take 1761 01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:51,879 Speaker 2: Triple G's resume and measure that against these particular standards 1762 01:25:51,920 --> 01:25:54,920 Speaker 2: of excellence to see whether or not he makes the cut. 1763 01:25:55,479 --> 01:25:57,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, two thousand and four Olympic silver medalists 1764 01:25:57,920 --> 01:25:58,519 Speaker 1: from Kazakhstan. 1765 01:25:58,560 --> 01:26:01,880 Speaker 2: No, no, no category. From categorization standpoint, what are we 1766 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:02,439 Speaker 2: looking for. 1767 01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:09,679 Speaker 1: We're looking for essentially a mixed criteria of your impact 1768 01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 1: on the sport. And we can't overlook that because it 1769 01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:14,720 Speaker 1: is hall of fame. Arturo Gatti, who was a at 1770 01:26:14,760 --> 01:26:18,680 Speaker 1: one point a world title fighter, got in to some controversy, 1771 01:26:18,760 --> 01:26:21,439 Speaker 1: but you have to recognize the fact that he was 1772 01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:24,360 Speaker 1: such an attraction and he fought in such a certain way. 1773 01:26:24,760 --> 01:26:27,479 Speaker 1: Triple G captured that. In my opinion, he was a 1774 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:31,599 Speaker 1: singular star who had a Jordan brand sponsorship. You want 1775 01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:34,879 Speaker 1: to be able to accumulate a certain level of titles. 1776 01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:37,920 Speaker 1: Even though Triple G operated ninety eight percent of his 1777 01:26:38,040 --> 01:26:40,920 Speaker 1: career at middleweight, He's tied for the all time title 1778 01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:44,479 Speaker 1: defense record with Bernard Hopkins of twenty He had a 1779 01:26:44,640 --> 01:26:48,240 Speaker 1: twenty three fight KO streak in his prime, he twice 1780 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:51,479 Speaker 1: was a unified champion. Can you hold it against him 1781 01:26:51,520 --> 01:26:54,080 Speaker 1: that he was never on disputed champion possibly? Can you 1782 01:26:54,120 --> 01:26:55,920 Speaker 1: hold it against him that he never was interested in 1783 01:26:56,040 --> 01:26:59,000 Speaker 1: moving up until that third Canelo fight? Could you even 1784 01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:01,360 Speaker 1: hold hold it ag against him that some have accused 1785 01:27:01,400 --> 01:27:04,280 Speaker 1: him of ducking andre Ward during the brief period where 1786 01:27:04,280 --> 01:27:06,760 Speaker 1: Ward was at sixty eight, Glofkin was at sixty and 1787 01:27:06,800 --> 01:27:08,560 Speaker 1: there was talk. I mean, yeah, I even think you 1788 01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:11,200 Speaker 1: could do that, but I think to some degree it 1789 01:27:11,280 --> 01:27:14,519 Speaker 1: has to be your performance level. Look, Luke, I argued 1790 01:27:14,600 --> 01:27:17,800 Speaker 1: against even though Sergio Martinez, the great middleway champion from 1791 01:27:17,880 --> 01:27:21,600 Speaker 1: Argentina was ultimately was in the Hall of Fame, and 1792 01:27:21,720 --> 01:27:23,559 Speaker 1: I argue, and even though he's one of my favorite fighters, 1793 01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:27,479 Speaker 1: I argued against him because I felt his window of 1794 01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:30,200 Speaker 1: being on top from a pound for pound standpoint and 1795 01:27:30,240 --> 01:27:34,160 Speaker 1: a championship standpoint was so small that we have to 1796 01:27:34,240 --> 01:27:36,719 Speaker 1: have some line that separates who's a Hall of Famer 1797 01:27:37,040 --> 01:27:40,640 Speaker 1: and who's not. Tripleg's window was not small. He was 1798 01:27:40,800 --> 01:27:45,719 Speaker 1: absolutely dominant. He checks off so many of the boxes, 1799 01:27:46,240 --> 01:27:49,479 Speaker 1: from the eye test to the numbers from the title 1800 01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:53,160 Speaker 1: defenses and all of that. But part of this criteria 1801 01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:56,559 Speaker 1: I do acknowledge is who did you beat. I think 1802 01:27:56,640 --> 01:27:58,960 Speaker 1: it was unfortunate for him that the best fighters in 1803 01:27:59,040 --> 01:28:02,519 Speaker 1: his division, Martinez and Codo, dodged the shit out of him. 1804 01:28:02,680 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 1: Canelo made him wait two years, unnecessarily till he was 1805 01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:08,320 Speaker 1: thirty five. He got robbed of his biggest win against 1806 01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:11,559 Speaker 1: Canelo in that first fight, which almost no one believes 1807 01:28:11,560 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 1: should have gone the other way except for Robert Bird's 1808 01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 1: wife Adelaide. If that's the only thing he's missing, and 1809 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:22,439 Speaker 1: he is missing that, I mean, when you're talking about 1810 01:28:22,439 --> 01:28:26,719 Speaker 1: his best wins, you're gonna talk about Danny Jacobs, Daniel 1811 01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:30,800 Speaker 1: Gil Darren Barker, Sergei Derevinchenko. I mean, we were not 1812 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,880 Speaker 1: talking about a run of Hall of famers here necessarily. 1813 01:28:34,800 --> 01:28:37,559 Speaker 1: But I don't think it's as easy to just go, oh, 1814 01:28:37,680 --> 01:28:40,599 Speaker 1: he's some like great white hope that the media got, 1815 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:43,280 Speaker 1: you know, was all about, and not look back on 1816 01:28:43,400 --> 01:28:46,960 Speaker 1: what we actually saw an absolute destroyer that is very peak, 1817 01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 1: saw almost no peer in the division's history. I mean, 1818 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,360 Speaker 1: at the peak of Triple G we were literally having 1819 01:28:53,439 --> 01:28:55,840 Speaker 1: conversations of what would a fight with him and Marvin 1820 01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:59,080 Speaker 1: Hagler look like, I don't know if you can. I mean, 1821 01:28:59,080 --> 01:29:01,640 Speaker 1: everyone's resume is going have a hole somewhere in how 1822 01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:05,080 Speaker 1: you're looking at this criteria. I don't think this hole 1823 01:29:05,600 --> 01:29:07,760 Speaker 1: in his inability to get the biggest names. Oh, you 1824 01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:09,200 Speaker 1: got to throw in kell Brook, by the way, who 1825 01:29:09,240 --> 01:29:12,160 Speaker 1: was undefeated when Triple G stopped him. Kelbrooke moved up 1826 01:29:12,200 --> 01:29:15,000 Speaker 1: two weight classes, of course, but that was probably one 1827 01:29:15,000 --> 01:29:16,679 Speaker 1: of the best victories as well of his career. 1828 01:29:17,400 --> 01:29:18,479 Speaker 2: I don't broke his face. 1829 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:21,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think it's enough in this case to 1830 01:29:21,800 --> 01:29:25,040 Speaker 1: keep him out of it, like the younger generation seems 1831 01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 1: to be trying to do right now, you know. 1832 01:29:27,160 --> 01:29:30,439 Speaker 2: So that was a good explanation, Right, here's what we're 1833 01:29:30,479 --> 01:29:34,000 Speaker 2: measuring against, and here's how his resume lines up with it. BC, 1834 01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:35,640 Speaker 2: I did a little digging, like, what are some of 1835 01:29:35,680 --> 01:29:38,760 Speaker 2: the other middleweights that have made it into the Hall 1836 01:29:38,800 --> 01:29:41,679 Speaker 2: of Fame. So you'd have Bernard Hopkins, you'd have Hagler, 1837 01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:43,960 Speaker 2: you'd have Carlos monz On, you'd have a couple of 1838 01:29:44,000 --> 01:29:46,000 Speaker 2: names or a few names like that. And in certain 1839 01:29:46,040 --> 01:29:48,280 Speaker 2: ways he doesn't quite I mean, he certainly doesn't have 1840 01:29:48,320 --> 01:29:51,920 Speaker 2: Hagler's career. Not many people do, and even b Hop 1841 01:29:52,000 --> 01:29:54,880 Speaker 2: had wins over elite other pound for pound guys. That 1842 01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:58,080 Speaker 2: is true. However, BC, to your point a more than 1843 01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:02,320 Speaker 2: twenty fight win streak title defenses, I think twenty of them. Yeah, 1844 01:30:02,320 --> 01:30:04,760 Speaker 2: I think twenty of them were title defenses right around that, 1845 01:30:06,920 --> 01:30:12,400 Speaker 2: multi different different multi title unifications during the course of 1846 01:30:12,479 --> 01:30:17,120 Speaker 2: his career. Ducked like a motherfucker. And they're right, you 1847 01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:22,080 Speaker 2: can't count the first fight against Canelo for him, but 1848 01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:25,479 Speaker 2: anyone with eyes would probably tell you that that fight 1849 01:30:25,880 --> 01:30:27,760 Speaker 2: is one that if it had been any other, like 1850 01:30:28,040 --> 01:30:30,760 Speaker 2: if Canelo is not a star. I just don't see 1851 01:30:30,920 --> 01:30:33,200 Speaker 2: how TRIPLEG lost that fight. I mean, this is a 1852 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:37,960 Speaker 2: guy with that Partly, BC, he achieved less than other people, 1853 01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:40,120 Speaker 2: that is true, who made it into the Hall of 1854 01:30:40,200 --> 01:30:43,120 Speaker 2: Fame in certain ways. Anyway, in other ways, he clearly 1855 01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:45,679 Speaker 2: achieved just as much as them. But this is also 1856 01:30:45,760 --> 01:30:48,519 Speaker 2: a guy who did not have the luck of the 1857 01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:53,640 Speaker 2: boxing machinery at his disposal. He kind of had the 1858 01:30:53,840 --> 01:30:57,920 Speaker 2: unluckiness of it, and that affects how your resume looks 1859 01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:00,679 Speaker 2: when it's all said and done. And I do think 1860 01:31:00,840 --> 01:31:04,080 Speaker 2: on some level BC that has to go into the grating. 1861 01:31:04,160 --> 01:31:06,559 Speaker 2: By the way, most people who vote on this, unlike 1862 01:31:06,600 --> 01:31:09,240 Speaker 2: Ryan Garcia, think that Triple G is an obvious case. 1863 01:31:09,720 --> 01:31:12,120 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, let's show quickly that. By the way, I 1864 01:31:12,240 --> 01:31:14,840 Speaker 1: scored both Canelo fights for Triple G. And I know 1865 01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,599 Speaker 1: you can't just give him that because your eyes thought 1866 01:31:17,680 --> 01:31:19,880 Speaker 1: you saw it. But imagine what his resume would be 1867 01:31:19,920 --> 01:31:22,280 Speaker 1: with those two wins. Now you're packaging two Canelo win. 1868 01:31:22,400 --> 01:31:24,400 Speaker 2: Totally different conversation, Brook Jacobs. 1869 01:31:25,120 --> 01:31:28,840 Speaker 1: Here, first is a snapshot at the tail end of 1870 01:31:28,960 --> 01:31:31,439 Speaker 1: Triple G's run, which does not include the Matthew Macklin 1871 01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:35,120 Speaker 1: knockout before that Rubio fight. But I'm gonna acknowledge it's 1872 01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:38,880 Speaker 1: not as impressive as someone with his talent should be. 1873 01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:41,959 Speaker 1: And then you count in the controversy of those Alvarez 1874 01:31:42,040 --> 01:31:44,200 Speaker 1: fights right there, and the fact that he was just 1875 01:31:44,280 --> 01:31:46,880 Speaker 1: trying to stay active and fight whoever was available. But 1876 01:31:46,960 --> 01:31:50,240 Speaker 1: here's Kevin I only sounding off on Twitter against the 1877 01:31:50,960 --> 01:31:53,240 Speaker 1: loud vocal minorities, saying, if you don't believe that Triple 1878 01:31:53,280 --> 01:31:55,120 Speaker 1: G is a Hall of Famer, you're an imbecile of 1879 01:31:55,160 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 1: the highest order and not worth debating because you clearly 1880 01:31:58,479 --> 01:32:03,519 Speaker 1: have no clue, hash tag first ballot, hashtag let's bring 1881 01:32:03,560 --> 01:32:05,720 Speaker 1: a Dan Rayfield. Of course, who was there for every 1882 01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:08,960 Speaker 1: step of Triple G's jerney saying more on alert, Triple 1883 01:32:09,000 --> 01:32:11,240 Speaker 1: G fought everybody who dare step in the ring with 1884 01:32:11,320 --> 01:32:14,200 Speaker 1: him for a decade. He was pound for pound number 1885 01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,800 Speaker 1: one to some. He was rob versus Canelo in the 1886 01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:20,040 Speaker 1: first fight, had twenty three straight knockouts in his prime, 1887 01:32:20,280 --> 01:32:23,200 Speaker 1: one of the highest ko percentages of middleweight history, and 1888 01:32:23,320 --> 01:32:28,599 Speaker 1: scored twenty consecutive title defenses, which is insane. Unified three belts, 1889 01:32:28,680 --> 01:32:32,479 Speaker 1: what a rock star. Olympic silver medal. Yeah, much ado 1890 01:32:32,520 --> 01:32:33,000 Speaker 1: about nothing. 1891 01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:36,080 Speaker 2: I gotta put up to Dan Rayfael gets spicy on Twitter. 1892 01:32:36,200 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 2: It's kind of funny to. 1893 01:32:37,160 --> 01:32:40,160 Speaker 1: Lot, especially post ESPN. Dan Rayfully just gets after it. 1894 01:32:40,640 --> 01:32:43,200 Speaker 1: Here's my boy Matt Brown from Brunchbox and I love 1895 01:32:43,280 --> 01:32:45,960 Speaker 1: this guy. But this went too far, Luke, Come on. 1896 01:32:46,520 --> 01:32:48,439 Speaker 1: He put out a meme that basically said, if you 1897 01:32:48,479 --> 01:32:50,600 Speaker 1: think Triple G should be a Hall of Famer, that 1898 01:32:50,760 --> 01:32:53,040 Speaker 1: you're working on the the white cop shift there with 1899 01:32:53,160 --> 01:32:54,240 Speaker 1: Mannix Scott. 1900 01:32:54,320 --> 01:32:57,759 Speaker 2: So you got Coppinger, You've got Pug Meyer, Mannix Iolei, 1901 01:32:57,960 --> 01:32:59,880 Speaker 2: and Rafael all In a row there. 1902 01:32:59,840 --> 01:33:02,479 Speaker 1: Right, Come on, Matt Brown, come on, man, I like 1903 01:33:03,880 --> 01:33:04,120 Speaker 1: him too. 1904 01:33:04,160 --> 01:33:05,479 Speaker 2: I like him too, But I don't really get this. 1905 01:33:05,600 --> 01:33:09,560 Speaker 2: I don't I understand being like, Okay, he doesn't have, 1906 01:33:09,880 --> 01:33:12,519 Speaker 2: you know, the resume of be Hop. Okay, he doesn't, 1907 01:33:13,439 --> 01:33:15,679 Speaker 2: but you don't have to have the resume of Bee 1908 01:33:15,720 --> 01:33:19,200 Speaker 2: Hop to get into the Hall of Fame. Like, that's 1909 01:33:19,320 --> 01:33:22,120 Speaker 2: not the point I mean it is. 1910 01:33:22,280 --> 01:33:23,880 Speaker 1: It does go against him that he stayed in one 1911 01:33:23,960 --> 01:33:26,559 Speaker 1: division for the totality of his career to some degree, 1912 01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:30,000 Speaker 1: But then again, so did Hagler, so did Hopkins until 1913 01:33:30,240 --> 01:33:32,760 Speaker 1: that late run in his forties, you know, I mean yeah, 1914 01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:36,160 Speaker 1: I mean, look, when he was on top, he was 1915 01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:40,479 Speaker 1: an absolute superstar catchphrases on the drama show Headline five 1916 01:33:40,560 --> 01:33:45,240 Speaker 1: pay per views, had sponsorships with Hublo and Shives, Regal 1917 01:33:45,360 --> 01:33:50,280 Speaker 1: and Jordan Brand, Like, you know, was a legitimate star. Damn. 1918 01:33:50,439 --> 01:33:52,320 Speaker 1: I didn't think we'd get this type of hate this early. 1919 01:33:52,400 --> 01:33:54,320 Speaker 1: It's always like, you know, ten fifteen years later, when 1920 01:33:54,320 --> 01:33:56,000 Speaker 1: people are like, well, yeah, that guy wasn't that good. 1921 01:33:56,040 --> 01:33:58,360 Speaker 1: Look at his box wreck, dude, this is what this is? 1922 01:33:58,439 --> 01:34:00,960 Speaker 2: How, you know, like Ryan's total casual When it comes 1923 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:03,600 Speaker 2: to understanding this stuff because, and I keep trying to 1924 01:34:03,600 --> 01:34:05,920 Speaker 2: explain this to people, you will think that the biggest 1925 01:34:05,920 --> 01:34:07,880 Speaker 2: stars of your era, Oh, these will be the names 1926 01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:10,320 Speaker 2: that carry the test of time. And then it's over 1927 01:34:10,400 --> 01:34:12,800 Speaker 2: and then they're like, dude, GSP was overrated, John Jones 1928 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:15,760 Speaker 2: wasn't shit, Mitris Johnson suck, Anderson Silva wouldn't be that good, 1929 01:34:16,160 --> 01:34:17,800 Speaker 2: you know. And they're gonna do it for Vulk, They're 1930 01:34:17,800 --> 01:34:20,320 Speaker 2: gonna do it for poetson the next generations after.

It's the mark of someone who can't appreciate 1934 01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:29,400 Speaker 2: what someone meant at a moment in time and what 1935 01:34:29,520 --> 01:34:32,679 Speaker 2: those contributions actually looked like. It's like, it's like literally 1936 01:34:32,760 --> 01:34:33,719 Speaker 2: the mark of ignorance. 1937 01:34:34,520 --> 01:34:36,800 Speaker 1: Uh quick story on the way out. I once I 1938 01:34:36,960 --> 01:34:40,599 Speaker 1: was at the Mohegan Sun when Triple G fought Matthew 1939 01:34:40,640 --> 01:34:43,639 Speaker 1: Macklin on HBO to defend his Middleway title, and those 1940 01:34:43,680 --> 01:34:46,000 Speaker 1: of us who are ringside, it was like me, Karen Mulvaney, 1941 01:34:46,040 --> 01:34:48,720 Speaker 1: Steve Kim, We'll never forget the sound of Triple G 1942 01:34:48,920 --> 01:34:51,160 Speaker 1: scoring a body shot Ko in the second round that 1943 01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:53,680 Speaker 1: sounded like a gun went off right in front of us, 1944 01:34:53,760 --> 01:34:56,720 Speaker 1: and Macklin was broken. After that, I ran into Jim 1945 01:34:56,800 --> 01:34:59,280 Speaker 1: Lampley in the food court and he's with his family 1946 01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:01,360 Speaker 1: and there's a crowd people. I'd never spoken to him before, 1947 01:35:01,400 --> 01:35:03,920 Speaker 1: and he's like, Brian, Brian, come over here, and he did, 1948 01:35:04,080 --> 01:35:05,920 Speaker 1: you know, to give him credit, he was like, love 1949 01:35:05,960 --> 01:35:08,280 Speaker 1: your work, great to meet you, and all I cut 1950 01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,720 Speaker 1: through the you know, the friendliness, and I was like, 1951 01:35:10,920 --> 01:35:15,040 Speaker 1: Jim is Triple G for real? Like for real, like 1952 01:35:15,160 --> 01:35:17,920 Speaker 1: all time, for real? Can we believe what we're seeing? 1953 01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:22,280 Speaker 1: And he kind of gave a non answer, but was like, 1954 01:35:22,680 --> 01:35:25,200 Speaker 1: I'm skeptical. I think so, but we got to wait 1955 01:35:25,240 --> 01:35:28,840 Speaker 1: and see. And after Triple G famously knocked out Curtis 1956 01:35:28,840 --> 01:35:30,960 Speaker 1: Stevens at Madison Square Garden Theater. And I'm not trying 1957 01:35:31,000 --> 01:35:33,720 Speaker 1: to say that the Stevens fight was marquee enough to 1958 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:37,240 Speaker 1: be a turning point, but after that fight, everyone from 1959 01:35:37,280 --> 01:35:39,519 Speaker 1: boxing Twitter went down to Times Square and went into 1960 01:35:39,560 --> 01:35:42,080 Speaker 1: Jimmy's corner to the famous boxing bar, and it was 1961 01:35:42,160 --> 01:35:46,000 Speaker 1: this cold, ridiculously cold evening and as I walked into 1962 01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:49,800 Speaker 1: this tiny sliver of a bar. Lampley's crossing paths to 1963 01:35:49,880 --> 01:35:52,120 Speaker 1: me and your chest to chess with everybody. And he's 1964 01:35:52,160 --> 01:35:54,599 Speaker 1: got the coat on and the scarf and the hat, 1965 01:35:55,080 --> 01:35:59,120 Speaker 1: and I go, Jim, Jim, he is for real. And 1966 01:35:59,280 --> 01:36:02,040 Speaker 1: Jim put whispers in my ear. He goes, he has 1967 01:36:02,120 --> 01:36:05,680 Speaker 1: the finest craft of any destroyer that I have ever 1968 01:36:05,840 --> 01:36:09,360 Speaker 1: seen in the history of this sport. You're goddamn right, 1969 01:36:09,520 --> 01:36:12,200 Speaker 1: he's for real. And he walked right out and slammed 1970 01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:13,960 Speaker 1: the door in my face as like a gust of 1971 01:36:14,040 --> 01:36:16,360 Speaker 1: wind came in and his scarf flew around the side 1972 01:36:16,360 --> 01:36:18,120 Speaker 1: of his neck and he walked off into the night. 1973 01:36:19,800 --> 01:36:21,559 Speaker 1: That was a moment, Luke, all right, Yeah. 1974 01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:24,080 Speaker 2: But then we also interviewed him, you know, and he 1975 01:36:24,240 --> 01:36:26,479 Speaker 2: was like, these two guys when they're fighting, they're falling 1976 01:36:26,600 --> 01:36:29,519 Speaker 2: in love and like they're not Jim, Yeah they're not. 1977 01:36:30,280 --> 01:36:31,559 Speaker 1: They want to bang Jim. 1978 01:36:31,720 --> 01:36:33,360 Speaker 2: All right. I think these two men are in a 1979 01:36:33,520 --> 01:36:34,960 Speaker 2: romantic affair, like they're not. 1980 01:36:35,640 --> 01:36:38,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's not happening right there, But shout out to 1981 01:36:38,280 --> 01:36:40,720 Speaker 1: boxing there we go. All right, those are your five 1982 01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:44,599 Speaker 1: topics for the damn week. But a reminder to y'all 1983 01:36:45,320 --> 01:36:47,720 Speaker 1: you want to reach the show. Why don't you hit 1984 01:36:47,800 --> 01:36:51,040 Speaker 1: us up at Morning Combat at gmail dot com. Tell 1985 01:36:51,120 --> 01:36:54,040 Speaker 1: Mikey that you said, hi, show him a piece of yourself. 1986 01:36:54,240 --> 01:36:56,519 Speaker 1: Really more like a fan sub than like, hey, you 1987 01:36:56,640 --> 01:37:00,240 Speaker 1: know one of the wow right, But those will be 1988 01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:03,400 Speaker 1: your opportunities to get your stuff hurt on Friday. It 1989 01:37:03,520 --> 01:37:07,080 Speaker 1: is Friday. So look, we sit in front of a microphone. 1990 01:37:07,640 --> 01:37:11,120 Speaker 1: Sometimes we say shit, that's just factually incorrect, insensitive, or 1991 01:37:11,360 --> 01:37:13,599 Speaker 1: just Plaine dead wrong. 1992 01:37:15,040 --> 01:37:15,960 Speaker 2: Then wrong. 1993 01:37:20,800 --> 01:37:22,920 Speaker 1: I think I deserve this one. Look, this one comes 1994 01:37:23,000 --> 01:37:27,320 Speaker 1: from Greg, he says, gentlemen, this here is a dead wrong. However, 1995 01:37:27,760 --> 01:37:30,719 Speaker 1: this is an anomaly because it didn't come from you directly, 1996 01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:33,960 Speaker 1: but by proxy you did report it. This is about 1997 01:37:34,080 --> 01:37:39,559 Speaker 1: the post that BC shared from at Velutama regarding Alex 1998 01:37:39,640 --> 01:37:42,839 Speaker 1: Padeda's wind streak, all the wind streaks that he snapped. 1999 01:37:43,200 --> 01:37:45,679 Speaker 1: I also understand all three of you made comments regarding 2000 01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:49,479 Speaker 1: some minor mistakes. These mistakes weren't all that minor. In fact, 2001 01:37:50,000 --> 01:37:53,280 Speaker 1: they were actually very dead wrong. Oh boy, I deserve this, 2002 01:37:53,640 --> 01:37:57,120 Speaker 1: he says. The post claim that he snaps Strickland wind streak, 2003 01:37:57,360 --> 01:37:59,799 Speaker 1: it was actually only six. Where did they get eighteen? 2004 01:38:00,080 --> 01:38:03,639 Speaker 1: The post claim that he stabbed snapped Izzy's twenty three 2005 01:38:03,720 --> 01:38:06,240 Speaker 1: fight win streak. He never had a twenty three fight 2006 01:38:06,320 --> 01:38:08,960 Speaker 1: win streak. He had a twenty fight win streak that 2007 01:38:09,160 --> 01:38:14,479 Speaker 1: Yan Blahovich snapped. They also claimed Uncliah's fourteen fight win streak, 2008 01:38:14,800 --> 01:38:18,240 Speaker 1: but it was actually thirteen fights unbeaten. There was a 2009 01:38:18,360 --> 01:38:20,599 Speaker 1: draw in there in a no contest, which aren't wins. 2010 01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:23,960 Speaker 1: Again per snickery as always, but that's how we MK 2011 01:38:24,160 --> 01:38:27,000 Speaker 1: fans do know who disrespect to a lax. He's a 2012 01:38:27,080 --> 01:38:29,800 Speaker 1: legend and has done epic things. But these stats are 2013 01:38:29,880 --> 01:38:34,719 Speaker 1: definitely incorrect mostly, but your mileage may vary. Hashtag drive 2014 01:38:34,840 --> 01:38:38,280 Speaker 1: fast all gas. Hashtag how many chigs. 2015 01:38:41,280 --> 01:38:41,679 Speaker 2: Do you see? 2016 01:38:41,720 --> 01:38:43,600 Speaker 1: They gave away another truck? Luke, did you see that? 2017 01:38:44,960 --> 01:38:46,639 Speaker 2: I can't say that. I'm paying close attention. 2018 01:38:47,120 --> 01:38:49,439 Speaker 1: All right, I'll take that l for that graphic. 2019 01:38:49,520 --> 01:38:51,400 Speaker 2: What ya you put that on the show? 2020 01:38:51,760 --> 01:38:54,720 Speaker 1: I do, Luke. We're about to get mahallowed by a 2021 01:38:54,800 --> 01:38:55,800 Speaker 1: gentleman named Daz. 2022 01:38:56,640 --> 01:38:59,000 Speaker 2: Back up on that ass and give these motherfuckers a 2023 01:38:59,080 --> 01:38:59,960 Speaker 2: blast from the past. 2024 01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:04,160 Speaker 1: Daz says, Aloha, I hope he bare knuckle fights televihim. 2025 01:39:04,160 --> 01:39:06,200 Speaker 1: By the way, Big Papa keep popa. That'd be Great 2026 01:39:06,439 --> 01:39:08,720 Speaker 1: during Have you seen this shit? On September twenty ninth, 2027 01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:12,320 Speaker 1: after watching Kyle Long down a beer, BC asks if 2028 01:39:12,600 --> 01:39:16,760 Speaker 1: Howie Long's sun was Kyle or Chris Long. BC it 2029 01:39:16,920 --> 01:39:20,040 Speaker 1: was both. Kyle played o line while Chris Long played 2030 01:39:20,080 --> 01:39:23,880 Speaker 1: defensive end. Both made the NFL always appreciate the content. 2031 01:39:24,200 --> 01:39:26,920 Speaker 1: Thanks for all the UFC three twenty fight week coverage. 2032 01:39:26,920 --> 01:39:29,519 Speaker 1: I'll take that out.

Yeah, there you go, hello, 2039 01:39:48,720 --> 01:39:51,479 Speaker 1: Liam says.

Whether Krylov 2051 01:40:28,439 --> 01:40:30,640 Speaker 6: was ranked in the top thirteen when they fought is 2052 01:40:30,680 --> 01:40:32,519 Speaker 6: irrelevant because at this point. 2053 01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:33,679 Speaker 2: He's not in the top thirteen. 2054 01:40:33,800 --> 01:40:39,080 Speaker 1: So he liam, you're wrong, actually all right, dead wrong 2055 01:40:39,160 --> 01:40:41,760 Speaker 1: in fact?
