1 00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:04,960 Speaker 1: Hey, Hi, you do and everybody welcome. My name is 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,880 Speaker 1: Luke Thomas. I am one half of your hosting duo 3 00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:09,560 Speaker 1: for Morning Combat. This is the official UFC two ninety 4 00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: six post fight show. How are you doing after that 5 00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:17,520 Speaker 1: very unsatisfying main event for UFC two ninety six, and 6 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,080 Speaker 1: yet there were still many fights that are actually pretty 7 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,440 Speaker 1: great on that card. Let's talk about them here tonight. 8 00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,240 Speaker 1: Brian Campbell is currently speaking to CBS Sports. He will 9 00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: join us momentarily, and when he does, we'll do the 10 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: show together. But for the moment before he joins us, 11 00:00:32,640 --> 00:00:35,640 Speaker 1: I will be your host solo. First things first, thank 12 00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:38,080 Speaker 1: you for joining me. I greatly appreciate it. Thumbs up 13 00:00:38,120 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: on the video, Yeah, hit subscribe. We just did a 14 00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,559 Speaker 1: bunch of hours that were probably really bad, but we 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 1: tried to do them nicely anyway, So give us a 16 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,800 Speaker 1: follow on social. This is this today, right now, our 17 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 1: last day here. This is our very last show and 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,880 Speaker 1: program in the bomb shelter. You're looking at the last 19 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 1: MK show of any kind in this and what a 20 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: better way to do this show than to talk about 21 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:06,440 Speaker 1: a dogshit main event? Seems so entirely appropriate, does it not? 22 00:01:06,920 --> 00:01:09,360 Speaker 2: Man? That sucked? Not the card. 23 00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:11,280 Speaker 1: The card had some great fights on it, but the 24 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: main event was incredibly, incredibly underwhelming. 25 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: All right, so let's get to it, shall we. In 26 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 2: your main event. 27 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 1: Let me pull up the results here if we can, 28 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,240 Speaker 1: and I'm just gonna read them out to you as 29 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: we customarily do. And of course you don't want spoilers. 30 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: You know, you gotta leave like you gotta be done 31 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: at this point. But all right, let's get to it. 32 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: In your main event for UFC two ninety six, by 33 00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: the way, USC two hunty six, taking place, of course, 34 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: at the Team Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada. Leon 35 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: Edwards retains his UFC welterweight title, defeating Colby Covington via 36 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:50,040 Speaker 1: unanimous decision forty nine forty six on all three judges scorecards, 37 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: Colby pretending that the result was somehow surprising. I guess 38 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: he wins just the fifth roun where he was able 39 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: to get on top of the Leon didn't make much 40 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 1: of an effort to get up, not much of a 41 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: successful one anyway. But he won the other four I 42 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,079 Speaker 1: suppose convincingly in certain cases, very convincingly in another case 43 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:11,760 Speaker 1: is a little bit less so, all right, The fight 44 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: was not great, And to me, the big story is 45 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 1: not what Leon didn't do, because we've seen Leon be 46 00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 1: very measured, We've seen Leon take his time. We've seen 47 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: a lot of fights from Leon go to decisions, not 48 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 1: necessarily the second fight with kamar Usban notwithstanding, not really 49 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: a dynamic finisher. Very skilled, very talented fighter, very deserving champion, 50 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:37,959 Speaker 1: but not necessarily a dynamic finisher. So the fight going 51 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 1: the distance in the way that it did, to me, 52 00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: from the way which Leon performed seems to be just 53 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,360 Speaker 1: sort of standard Leon. Good Leon, but that's what he does. 54 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 1: The Colby Covington equation is the one that really. 55 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 2: Is worth examining. Guys, can we close that door to 56 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 2: the studio poor for four? That'd be great, thank you. 57 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: Colby Covington just did not perform very well. Hey, can 58 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:07,959 Speaker 1: you help me Loon and shut that door? 59 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: There we go, There we go, thank you. 60 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: Colby Covingon is the one that to me just did 61 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: not perform very well. Went two for ten on takedowns, 62 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: and one of those takedowns. So, by the way, the 63 00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: UFC broadcast is now showing the fights between them, I think, 64 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,520 Speaker 1: oh wait a second, hold on, I got to see 65 00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: this on the UFC broadcast. They're showing Sean, let's see 66 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 1: what happens. They're gonna stick with the camera there, Sean. 67 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 1: Oh look at this angle. Oh my god. Oh oh, 68 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,160 Speaker 1: that's amazing. 69 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 2: That's amazing. Look at Ballah Mohammed's face, Like, what the 70 00:03:53,840 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 2: fuck dude? They got the whole thing on film. Oh 71 00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 2: my god. 72 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 1: Everyone's just laughing, having a good time. Are they gonna 73 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: kick him out? Are they leaving? They're gonna put him 74 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: in cust They're just gonna tell him to go somewhere else. Yeah, 75 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:29,159 Speaker 1: that's it. Okay, all right, there we go. That was fun, 76 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 1: very cute, very cute. All right, Colby comingon, guys, What 77 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 1: the fuck was that from him? I couldn't tell at 78 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,400 Speaker 1: first if he was injured or something else that happened. 79 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,039 Speaker 2: Let's be very fair to Leon Edwards. 80 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,279 Speaker 1: Leon correctly noted by being able to manage the distance. 81 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: We talked about him managing the distance early, and when 82 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 1: BC was here, we talked about the linear strikes he 83 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: was throwing up the middle to deter anything, and he 84 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 1: eventually got his leg kicks going. Not a whole lot else, 85 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 1: Kobe reaching for one takedown or early didn't get anywhere close. 86 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 1: Eventually got one a little bit later in the fight, 87 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: and then obviously he got one in the fifth round. 88 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 1: Those are the only two that he got in the contest. 89 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: He didn't really shoot, he didn't really pressure. He was 90 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: being put on the back foot. So I just want 91 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,440 Speaker 1: to say something. A lot of the reason why Colby 92 00:05:22,440 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 1: Covington underperformed is because of the positioning that Leon put 93 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,040 Speaker 1: him in. It is because his pressure put him on 94 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,479 Speaker 1: his heels. It is because he would do things to 95 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 1: confuse like switch stances. 96 00:05:35,560 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 2: It is because he would use lots of lateral movement. 97 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,479 Speaker 1: It is because he would throw you know, faints or 98 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: you know, decoy strikes up the middle, and a series 99 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: of other i mean level changes, all different kinds of 100 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 1: stuff to get him to back up and to not 101 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: be able to approach him and get where he wanted 102 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 1: to in striking range. 103 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:52,359 Speaker 2: And he would let kick him as he began to 104 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 2: move forward. 105 00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 1: All of these things together worked to keep him pretty 106 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 1: far apart at the end of where the range where 107 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: Leon Edwards had all the significant advantages, or the vast 108 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: majority of them, he could see the shots coming from 109 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: much further away. I mean, everything that explains or I 110 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: should say many things that explain this, but like what 111 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 1: that tells you in the end is I mean, you 112 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,599 Speaker 1: can pick whatever interpretation you want from that, assuming injury 113 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 1: is not in play. But the fairest interpretation you can 114 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: come to there is Colby did not have any capacity 115 00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,160 Speaker 1: once that motion had been set in through the rounds 116 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,760 Speaker 1: to really make any kind of adjustment. He was able 117 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: to get the takedown on the fifth, but Leon didn't 118 00:06:32,120 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 1: strenuously object to it, and he had already won so 119 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:40,000 Speaker 1: cleanly by that point it didn't really matter the I 120 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 1: The reality is that is I'm not going to say 121 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,080 Speaker 1: an all time like one of the worst performances in 122 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: a title fight I've ever seen. 123 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,720 Speaker 2: I've seen worse ones, and. 124 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 1: We had an al Donna on this card redeeming herself 125 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 1: after her really bad That was an all time stinker performance. 126 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,120 Speaker 2: And what you turn in against Amanda nonez. 127 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: But this will as a very poor performance from Colby. 128 00:07:03,320 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: I can appreciate that he looked poor than he actually 129 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: is because he went up against a very skilled fighter 130 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 1: in Leon who made him look that way. But even 131 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: if you look that way for a little while and 132 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,640 Speaker 1: you have no real answer for it, it really just 133 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: speaks to the limitations and the inability to problem solve, 134 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: the inability to have any other secondary layers to your 135 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: game to really go to and frankly, again, I'm gonna 136 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:32,200 Speaker 1: say it one more time, the thirty five year old 137 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 1: stat one twenty five to one seventy. There's only been 138 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: two times in title fight someone over the age of 139 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:41,920 Speaker 1: thirty five has one. Add in another one on the 140 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 1: column for someone in the losing list. Age is a 141 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: real factor ring rust I do believe is probably a 142 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,160 Speaker 1: real factor for Colby. I don't think that by any 143 00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: stretch that's the best I've ever seen Colby do. But 144 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 1: he performed poorly in tonight's contest, which is kind of 145 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: amazing I get. I mean, I guess if you like 146 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: his then you got what you wanted out of fight week. 147 00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:04,960 Speaker 1: But if that was supposed to be any prelude for 148 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,080 Speaker 1: what the fight meant, it obviously had an inverse proportion. 149 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: Given everything else that we saw with the theatrics during fight, 150 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: we Colby had no ability to get Leon consistently on 151 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: his heels, He had no ability. 152 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 2: To corral his movement. 153 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: He really had very little ability to even get into 154 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: jab range to push him back. 155 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,119 Speaker 2: He was not there to be hit in the same 156 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: kind of way. 157 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,920 Speaker 1: He was again constantly moving, constantly staying at range, constantly threatening, 158 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: constantly leg kicking, just disrupting rhythm, disrupting timing, changing location, 159 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 1: all of those things. Again, in that sense, not a 160 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 1: beautiful fight, not one that you're going to remember for 161 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:44,679 Speaker 1: a long time for how glorious. It was not one 162 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: with any kind of dynamic finish. But for Leon to 163 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 1: be able to shut Colby down in the way that 164 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 1: he did does take tremendous skill. It does take poise, 165 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: and it does take the kinds of experiences that have 166 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 1: raised him to this point to be able to do that. 167 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: I want to get to some of these numbers if 168 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: I can. From fight Metric. I tweeted this earlier. I 169 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: want to read this tweet to you. It's from fight Metric. 170 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 1: It's from Richard Mann from fight Metric. He writes, excuse me, 171 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,600 Speaker 1: He writes, Leon Edwards's ability to force opponents to fight 172 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 1: at his pace is surreal. Colby coming to came in 173 00:09:18,280 --> 00:09:22,280 Speaker 1: averaging four point one zero significant strikes per minute. Tonight 174 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:26,079 Speaker 1: he averaged only one point seven to six. He brings 175 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:30,280 Speaker 1: everybody down to the level and they can't get much going. 176 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: We talk about it all the time with Volkanowski. It's 177 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,720 Speaker 1: not simply what you can do from the offensive end 178 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,960 Speaker 1: of things, it's how much defensively you can also shut 179 00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: down what the normal output is of your opponent and 180 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: bring it back down to space. Guys in the back. 181 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 1: If you could throw out my tweet, I don't know 182 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 1: if you can get it or whatever. I just retweeted. 183 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: It's from Richard Mann. I want to go through some 184 00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: of these numbers here. Leon Edwards landing fifty seven of 185 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: one hundred and eight strikes, Colby coming in just forty 186 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: four of one twenty six, but a lot of those 187 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 1: were like camera fist, bitter powder stuff. Edwards went to 188 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 1: two for three on takedowns. Can you believe that Comington 189 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:08,560 Speaker 1: just two for ten? Uh So, therefore just at not 190 00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 1: a great submission, yeah, at twenty percent. Obviously sub submission attempts. 191 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: Leon Edwards two two submission attempts. He's credited with one reversal, 192 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: control time one minutes twenty seven seconds. Colby comment in 193 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: credited with five minutes of control time. Not a lot 194 00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: of great things happening in that fifth round. The most 195 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,840 Speaker 1: that anyone landed in any single round was Leon, which 196 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: is eighteen significant strikes in round two. 197 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 2: Let me pull up if I can. 198 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: I want to look at some of the some of 199 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: the other pieces there one second, give me just a minute, 200 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: all right, As I pulled this up here, by the way, 201 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: Leon now moves to twenty one and three. In the 202 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: overall scope of things, Yeah, Leon edwards targeting, they had 203 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: thirty six percent targeting the body, twenty four targeting the leg, 204 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: almost forty percent, thirty eight percent Colby doing thirty eight 205 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 1: percent targeting. But then they had forty five percent distance. 206 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,080 Speaker 1: Everything that Colby threw was basically that way that landed, 207 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 1: and everything was ninety eight percent for leone were just 208 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: one percent on the ground there for him, kind of straightforward. 209 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: It was a little bit more than prevent defense from Leon. 210 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: It was the kind of thing that was just enough 211 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 1: to land to do damage on the leg, just enough 212 00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: to land to rhythm disrupt, just enough to deter, and 213 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 1: then enough to have other defensive things in place to 214 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 1: just turn Colby into a much watered down, significantly watered 215 00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,679 Speaker 1: down version of himself. The rebuke of Colby is not 216 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 1: that Leon was able to do that the rebuke is 217 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 1: that he did it and had no ability to compensate, 218 00:11:41,480 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 1: had no ability to go around, had no ability to 219 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,520 Speaker 1: really adjust. Laid This was a poor performance from Colby, 220 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: who really strangely after the fight. 221 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 2: Was like, yeah, I didn't have a scratch on me. 222 00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,680 Speaker 1: The guy is literally saying he doesn't have a scratch 223 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: on him when his face is bleeding. Now, he didn't 224 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: take a beating, that is true, but if there is 225 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,559 Speaker 1: anybody who was, it was him, and there was enough 226 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 1: of it to be noticed, and including on the leg 227 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: that was a bad one as well, and then said, yeah, 228 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 1: you know, I felt like myself. I felt great. I 229 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: had some ring russ, but I feel fine. I could 230 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: get back out there. Gilbert Burns calling him out for 231 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 1: UFC two nine to nine, which of course will be 232 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 1: in Miami, and here comes Brian Campbell, fresh off the commode. 233 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: Brian Campbell, have a seat. So here's the point I 234 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: want to make. We're still on the main event. It's 235 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,880 Speaker 1: late as balls, but this is so late, it's so 236 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: fucking late. But this is what I are, This is 237 00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 1: what I argue. Tell me where you're at. Yeah, Colby 238 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: and his performance he normally averages over four strikes a minute. 239 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: Leon held him to one point seventy six. It really 240 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: delayed and diminished anything he could do. He went two 241 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 1: for ten on takedowns. Leon Edwards went two for three. 242 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,439 Speaker 1: Leon's ability to go side to side, to level, change 243 00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: to fake to faint, throwing, linear strikes up the middle leg, 244 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 1: kicking rhythm, disrupting, not being there, maintaining that distance. I 245 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: give Leon credit for making Colby look bad. My criticism 246 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: of Colby is not that he had difficult up front. 247 00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,719 Speaker 2: That was you're going up against a great fighter. 248 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 3: Had a twenty one month lyoff must period twenty. 249 00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:06,320 Speaker 2: One monthly off age. 250 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 1: By the way, the thirty five year old stat I 251 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: just told him is still in play. Another guy who 252 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 1: got it roll on the wrong end of things, but 253 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 1: he had no ability to adjust. Colby had no other 254 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:17,599 Speaker 1: gear to go to. There was nothing he could he 255 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:18,880 Speaker 1: pulled out. 256 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 2: Here. 257 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: Take a look at the stats here on the screen 258 00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: if we can for just a second, BC, and then 259 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 1: I'll throw to you. 260 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:23,840 Speaker 2: On this one. 261 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: You can see top line there where it says TD 262 00:13:26,880 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: two of three for Leon Edwards, two of ten for Colby, 263 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 1: fifty seven to fifty four in significant strikes. Two sub attempts. 264 00:13:33,600 --> 00:13:36,240 Speaker 1: They credited the triangle and what was the other one 265 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 1: he had? I forget the rear naked choke baby, you 266 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: know the power GIA team. Yes, a ninja choke. And 267 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 1: then he gets credited with a reversal of the five 268 00:13:43,240 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 1: minutes of control time A lot that's going to be 269 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,000 Speaker 1: either against the fence or on top. Colby's inability to 270 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,680 Speaker 1: have any kind of second or third gear really doomed 271 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: him in this come. 272 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,600 Speaker 3: Absolutely something happened. Something happened. 273 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 4: You can see the way Colby tried to attack the 274 00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:00,520 Speaker 4: post fight speech to try to you know, protect the 275 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 4: brand and look, I'm a loyal soldier of the UFC 276 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 4: and all that. And he should have really because of 277 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 4: the promise of what the insults and what the you know, 278 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 4: blood feud nature we thought of Covington Edwards could be. 279 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 3: Now obviously you have. 280 00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 4: To look at Edwards and say, his ability to keep 281 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 4: his poise and deliver the game plan be that efficient, 282 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 4: that stingy, that technical, This is a step forward and 283 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,960 Speaker 4: like his poundful pound reputation. But look, I did send 284 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,240 Speaker 4: some naivity in Edwards in the post fight speech of 285 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 4: maybe not understanding the bad visuals like Rogan reference that 286 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,920 Speaker 4: we referenced in that fifth round, that potential. 287 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 3: Of like what does it look like when he closes the. 288 00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 4: Fight Edwards as champion two booze, This is probably the 289 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 4: most marketed b side he could find right now, Like 290 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 4: I love Ballal he's due, and even Shofcott, which will 291 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 4: have some hype behind him, won't have that overnight buzz 292 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 4: until people find out exactly who shof Cut is if 293 00:14:49,240 --> 00:14:50,720 Speaker 4: they didn't watch tonight and good Lord. 294 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 3: But in that regard, like this maybe was. 295 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 4: Leon's chance to try to press the guest and try 296 00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 4: to finish this guy, especially how much Edwards had chopped 297 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 4: up the leg of Covington's kind of you know, slowly 298 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 4: slow him down and to mobilize him. I give Colby 299 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 4: a lot of credit still for being a dog and 300 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 4: turning it around finally in the fifth round and getting 301 00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 4: Edwards down even though he wasn't able to bring it 302 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,800 Speaker 4: anywhere into a position to capitalize on it. But yes, 303 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 4: Edward's technically brilliant, but he tried to deliver almost a 304 00:15:17,040 --> 00:15:19,720 Speaker 4: baby's face speech and I get it about the horrible 305 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 4: comments about his dad, and he has a right to 306 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,040 Speaker 4: have gone through a very emotional. 307 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 2: Weak We turnus, why are we doing that? 308 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 4: But because I do think they're they're both there's a 309 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:33,120 Speaker 4: responsibility to both of them about what the responsibility is 310 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 4: and some degree as a champion who's trying to sell right, 311 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 4: like there's going to be some knocks against Leon for 312 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:40,840 Speaker 4: this performance and it was dominant and technical, but they 313 00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 4: both promised the fight that didn't happen. And I think 314 00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 4: Leon was too content to just control Colby, which champions 315 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 4: do at times. It's an efficient way to just limit 316 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,400 Speaker 4: your opponent from doing what they do great. But we 317 00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 4: as much as we all have to point our finger 318 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 4: at Colby, and I do think there's an injury there Luke. 319 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 4: I think that prevented him from having the camp to 320 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 4: be in the shape that he was in. He look 321 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 4: exactly this in the prime shape. The twenty one month 322 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 4: playoff does play in, but I think Colby didn't want 323 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 4: to show that weakness, like we talked about on the 324 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 4: live stream. You know, probably figured if I really juice 325 00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 4: this up and get you know, he's smart, he's a marketer. 326 00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 4: He understands how to make himself a vibrant pay per 327 00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 4: view brand. 328 00:16:13,760 --> 00:16:15,960 Speaker 3: He did that this week crass, but he did it. 329 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 4: But neither together were willing to step on the gas 330 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 4: enough to make this an entertaining fight to put the 331 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 4: capstone on what was a great pay per view to 332 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 4: close a year that had highs and lows in different areas. 333 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 4: There are a lot of fans that were fully happy 334 00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,480 Speaker 4: with this year, and this was a great year, and 335 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,280 Speaker 4: this looked like it was going to be a perfect end. 336 00:16:33,520 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 4: Luckily for the UFC, they got the STRICKLANDDP fight that's 337 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:38,080 Speaker 4: going to point directly to the next pay per view, 338 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 4: and it's red hot. But I think if we're going 339 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 4: to talk about the brilliance of Leon, we also have 340 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 4: to talk about what he kind of us left at 341 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 4: the table. I wonder if he could have finished Covington. 342 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 4: He was a one leg a fighter. 343 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,080 Speaker 1: Admitted in his interview with Rogan that he was disappointed 344 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: that he didn't get the finish. I don't know exactly 345 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,280 Speaker 1: what he'll say went wrong from his perspective about wy 346 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: he couldn't get it, because remember he didn't. 347 00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 2: It wasn't like he ended strong. He ended the fifth 348 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:02,240 Speaker 2: round was Colby's best. 349 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 1: Although it's a question like how I mean, this is 350 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 1: the weird part right like Leon. Well, how do you 351 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 1: explain Leon's performance in the fifth? Would you say he 352 00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: coasted or it was content to win? 353 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 3: Well, I'm too like. 354 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 4: He wasn't fighting tooth and nail in the No, he wasn't. 355 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 4: He was fighting prevent defense. And that's why I don't 356 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:20,760 Speaker 4: think he was panicking when he was taken down. Into 357 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 4: his credit, he prevented Colby Covington from turning that valuable 358 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 4: top position into any threat. Look like that's not the 359 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,280 Speaker 4: best version of Colby Comenton by far, and you chopped 360 00:17:30,320 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 4: up his leg and left him vulnerable. I know Colby's 361 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,920 Speaker 4: a dog, and that's why he still had the fight 362 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 4: in him to bring the fight down. 363 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 3: But I need a little bit more urgency out of Leon. 364 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 4: If we all watched you react the way you did 365 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 4: in a very crass, ridiculous moment, I did want to 366 00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 4: see that challenge to that eye of the tiger, not 367 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:47,920 Speaker 4: a guy who's gonna come out and be reckless. 368 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 3: I still wanted him to carry it out the way 369 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:49,840 Speaker 3: he did. 370 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:52,080 Speaker 4: I just there were more openings for him to really 371 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 4: kind of go after and put a capstone. 372 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 1: On this't I won't say, I won't say that that's wrong. 373 00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 2: I really won't. 374 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 1: I won't say that you've got some crazy idea. But 375 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: what I would say is. 376 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 3: But that's because Colvington sucks so bad in this fight. 377 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: That's because he's so bad in the ring fight. And also, dude, 378 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: Leon's the fucking champ. Why does he have to risk? 379 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 2: What is I mean? All the money is when you 380 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 2: have to Again, you don't have to do it all right, 381 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 2: fair enough, but all the. 382 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,159 Speaker 1: Money is when you're a champ. All of the attention 383 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 1: is when your champ. This is your prime earning spot 384 00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:22,239 Speaker 1: right now, if you're going to make anything of it, 385 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: giving up the belt or doing anything for risk giving 386 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:24,680 Speaker 1: up the belt. 387 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:27,400 Speaker 2: And also I will say this, were there other. 388 00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 1: Things that perhaps he could have done in the stand 389 00:18:28,880 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 1: up department to really pressure and hurt Colby? I agree 390 00:18:31,080 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 1: he let up there. But going and getting two takedowns 391 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,680 Speaker 1: on Colby, the ninja choke I thought was interesting, the 392 00:18:37,960 --> 00:18:39,200 Speaker 1: inverted triangle. 393 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,159 Speaker 3: There's a whole conversation about you. 394 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: In certain ways. On the ground, he went for it 395 00:18:43,160 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: more than I thought he would. He didn't go for 396 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: it as much in the stand up, but that's also 397 00:18:47,880 --> 00:18:49,679 Speaker 1: where he had the most success over. 398 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 4: The Over the length of time, like when Leon says afterwards, 399 00:18:52,359 --> 00:18:54,120 Speaker 4: I wanted to show you guys how skilled I am. 400 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 4: I wanted to showcase that by you know, going after 401 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 4: the strength of Colby and beating him there. I mean, 402 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,360 Speaker 4: he did accomplish that, and you do do deserve respect 403 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 4: for that. But you can't say that while the crowd 404 00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 4: is raining booze and not expect there to be a 405 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,399 Speaker 4: receipt from it. And look at the second half of 406 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:09,800 Speaker 4: gsps career. Luckily it had already built himself up to 407 00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 4: a you know, the superstar level and a proven brand. 408 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 3: But look, we all know what happened. 409 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,439 Speaker 4: He became a decision fighter because of how much he 410 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 4: controlled every aspect of the fight, and he still had 411 00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 4: the reputation to carry it through. 412 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,600 Speaker 3: And maybe it's not about the marketing for Leon. 413 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 4: I mean, I support the fact that you do have 414 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 4: to survive in advance as a champion and if you 415 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:29,639 Speaker 4: find a way so efficiently to shut the other guy down. 416 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 4: But what I'm saying is, Luke, you can't disagree with 417 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:35,000 Speaker 4: me that this night was peeking towards like we were 418 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 4: peeking at the Beacon. I mean, this was a blockbuster 419 00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 4: pay per view that was delivering and now you kind 420 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 4: of go home with that want one feeling, you know 421 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 4: what I mean, Like it happens if the fight. 422 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,840 Speaker 1: Here's a tweet from MMA Fightings shaunau shot. He quote, 423 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: Kolby Covington is ultimately someone with zero signature wins, zero 424 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 1: wins over currently ranked walterwaits zero to three entitle fights, 425 00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 1: whose entire reputation was built off of two losses, who's 426 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: on the wrong side of his thirties in a young 427 00:19:58,760 --> 00:19:59,399 Speaker 1: man's division. 428 00:19:59,480 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 2: It is what it is, he writes. 429 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 4: But look, if the goal was to get people to 430 00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,199 Speaker 4: buy the pay per view, we could say, oh, like 431 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 4: you know, we could do the whole Oh, this is 432 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 4: Dana's fallen in some ways. 433 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 3: Look, they chose business. We got it, We understand why. 434 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 4: But it also kind of I want to say, up 435 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,760 Speaker 4: lowp in their face, But it probably didn't because Colby 436 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 4: did do his part on the way into the fight, 437 00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So it's like, does it 438 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 4: hurt Leon moving forward to hurt him a little bit, 439 00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:23,280 Speaker 4: but you can always repair that reputation or maybe if 440 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 4: you find the right aggressive Dan's partner. 441 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,920 Speaker 1: Dude, who I mean, Okay, I get because I'm trying, Okay, 442 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 1: I'm trying to wrap my head around about Colby's future, 443 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: right and his fandom. Colby's fans even before tonight, you 444 00:20:36,160 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 1: couldn't make a credible argument you like him for his 445 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: fight style. 446 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, he catched himself out tonight. 447 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:42,320 Speaker 2: Like, you can't make that argument. 448 00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:44,240 Speaker 1: You can make the argument you like his antics or 449 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:47,000 Speaker 1: his identity or any version of whatever all that is. 450 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: You can like any part of that. That's fine, that's 451 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 1: fair game, But like, it can't be for the fight style. 452 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 1: So if he sells a fight, let's say against Gilbert Burns, 453 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: are the fans still going to buy it? 454 00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,479 Speaker 2: Has there been enough disconnect. 455 00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:03,240 Speaker 1: Between the pre fight and what the fight itself is 456 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 1: at this point the fans are like, Okay, what the 457 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:05,680 Speaker 1: fuck are we doing here? 458 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 2: Or oh, they're just gonna line right back up for it. 459 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 2: I'm going to ask you what. 460 00:21:08,520 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask it again, because remember, he got booed 461 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 1: at the end of this fight by people who were 462 00:21:12,800 --> 00:21:14,000 Speaker 1: cheering him at the beginning of it. 463 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 4: He cashed out a large portion of the reputation and 464 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 4: the you know, bank account he had built up with 465 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 4: the fans because they do love his character and they 466 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,639 Speaker 4: get behind him, and you know, it's Kolby's credit, they 467 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 4: did make incredible that incredible fight with Ousman, and he 468 00:21:26,400 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 4: was competitive in the rematch, And so you can make 469 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,640 Speaker 4: the argument that he's more famous for, you know, losing 470 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 4: as the B side in those fights, and that's proving 471 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 4: true now that he's lost three title fights. 472 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:40,000 Speaker 3: But what I think that that's why I'm wondering about Ninja. 473 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 4: I wonder if he got to a decision point not 474 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 4: not dissimilar to where TJ. Dillashaw was, even though it 475 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 4: blew up in TJ's face a lot of ways because 476 00:21:46,480 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 4: of how quickly that shoulder fell apart. But look, I 477 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 4: literally wonder if Covington, like had the injury, looked at 478 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,400 Speaker 4: the situation, realized that he's not gonna get a second chance. 479 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:56,880 Speaker 4: I'm not going to reschedule this and maybe just said, 480 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,360 Speaker 4: you know, I'll try to train as much as I can. 481 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 3: But that wasn't five round dynamic Cardio Colby. 482 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:04,199 Speaker 4: He's enough of a dog and had enough of a 483 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,480 Speaker 4: well built up that he was able to be the 484 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,919 Speaker 4: fresher fighter somehow late and was able to turn the 485 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:09,960 Speaker 4: tables and have a moment. 486 00:22:10,320 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 3: But the moment didn't go anywhere, Luke, and to. 487 00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 4: Come out in the post fight speech and just be like, 488 00:22:14,440 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 4: you know, I wasn't scratched, and that guy's boring and 489 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 4: look at what happened, Like, no, what are you gonna 490 00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 4: buy now, Luke. It's he doesn't finish fights. He gets 491 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 4: you in into the building for the idea of a 492 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:26,639 Speaker 4: grudge match. And like we said against the first Ooseman people. 493 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:29,320 Speaker 1: Again, assuming he has an opponent that people reasonably care about, 494 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: which they would care about Gilbert Burns. 495 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:32,600 Speaker 3: They're not going to carry on the title level anymore. 496 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 2: Do you lose three title fights in the UFC, it's 497 00:22:36,600 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 2: over for you. You're done. 498 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: That's you know, unless he fills in on an emergency 499 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:43,680 Speaker 1: kind of thing. That would be with the one exception 500 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: where like a title fight falls out the last second, the. 501 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 2: Need to replacement. 502 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 1: Yes he could do that, but in terms of like 503 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: scheduling him for a title fight, that those days are 504 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,880 Speaker 1: completely over. But what I'm saying is if he gets 505 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 1: Gilbert Burns, people will they will, they will love it. 506 00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 2: If he goes after Burns. 507 00:22:58,280 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 3: He has to go full heel. So so let's make 508 00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:01,159 Speaker 3: the equivalent here. 509 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 4: It's like when when Chaill's son, and like he got 510 00:23:03,200 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 4: the John Jones title shot. 511 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 3: That you know he didn't deserve. But this was similar 512 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,000 Speaker 3: to this in a way. 513 00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:08,440 Speaker 4: It's like, okay, we got a cash in that one 514 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,800 Speaker 4: more ticket people will sell for jail and chail did 515 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:13,200 Speaker 4: Jill did sell that that John Jones fight him. He 516 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 4: talked his face off and was clever and witty. But 517 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,400 Speaker 4: we knew what we were going to get. So where 518 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 4: did Jaill go once it was evident? Okay, it doesn't 519 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:21,239 Speaker 4: belong at the title level anymore. He had already had 520 00:23:21,240 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 4: the Anderson rematch right that John Jones was like the 521 00:23:23,119 --> 00:23:25,159 Speaker 4: one after he had to you know, he had the 522 00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,840 Speaker 4: blood war with vonder Lay that that didn't turn into 523 00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:28,200 Speaker 4: a fight. 524 00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 3: Right until Bellator. 525 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 2: I can't let you get close. 526 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, So like at least it was a moment there, 527 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 4: But like you have to turn into full heel now. 528 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 4: So Colby can win people back if he turns back 529 00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,239 Speaker 4: into full gross heel. But Louke, how much grosser can 530 00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 4: you go? He won as grocers you can go and 531 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 4: didn't deliver in the fight. And this isn't BC hates 532 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,840 Speaker 4: Colby and BC hates politics, and I mean I've actually 533 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 4: been a registered Republican since nineteen ninety six, Luke. 534 00:23:46,920 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 2: That's new there. 535 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 3: It's just, you know, it's just do you like everyone 536 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 3: in every voting cycle? Not always right, you know. 537 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,359 Speaker 4: But this is about like, this is about Colby promised 538 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,640 Speaker 4: something they didn't deliver that's going to be a major 539 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 4: hit to his brand. 540 00:23:58,400 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 3: Luke. 541 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 4: That's kind of like in pro wrestling, and you know 542 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 4: someone's no longer at that level other than those secondary storylines. 543 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 3: That's what he's got to be on the way out. 544 00:24:04,520 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 4: He's young enough to still make fights, but they got 545 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 4: to be blood wars to make it matter. 546 00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:09,400 Speaker 3: And that's where we're at. 547 00:24:09,440 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: Thirty five years young, he said, not young at this game, 548 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:15,600 Speaker 1: not young, not young, And he'll be thirty six in February. 549 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,919 Speaker 4: And I'm not crying as a fan. The entertainment delivered 550 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 4: in this card, if we're looking at it from that aw, 551 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 4: the card delivered and Edwards survived in advance. But like, 552 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 4: this isn't going to make you jazz now to see 553 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 4: Edwards versus Muhammad, even though bellall deserves it, right, it's 554 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 4: not gonna get you jazzed. 555 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 2: No, No, who knows shot. 556 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean here's the thing, right, Like, we're picking 557 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 1: on Colby because this was his shot. Again, Leon's a champ. 558 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,160 Speaker 1: This was for Colby, your third shot. If you didn't 559 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 1: get it, you're not going to get another one. So 560 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,439 Speaker 1: that's over. We are picking on him a little bit. 561 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:43,080 Speaker 1: But I also think you're right, like, are people super 562 00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,800 Speaker 1: jazz to see Leon's next fight? Maybe in the UK 563 00:24:45,880 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 1: if they can put a fight over there a smart move, 564 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:49,639 Speaker 1: that'd be a really smart movie because I think it 565 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,919 Speaker 1: would lift him, you know, But in terms of the 566 00:24:52,000 --> 00:24:54,120 Speaker 1: state side audience, no, there is not going to be 567 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:56,360 Speaker 1: there's not going to be a huge ground swell of 568 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,199 Speaker 1: interest in whatever he does next, unless the shop cut thing. 569 00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:02,080 Speaker 1: We'll talk about that in a second. That could be 570 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:05,919 Speaker 1: a bit of an X factor. So I guess they 571 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: might do bawl all next. We don't really know. 572 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 2: We should, we can, We can table that conversation, We 573 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 2: could table. 574 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 3: It, but like, yeah, we should, I mean we should. 575 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:14,119 Speaker 3: We should keep going down this card. 576 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: But let's talk about that co main event here for 577 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:17,120 Speaker 1: just a second. 578 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 2: If we can. 579 00:25:17,720 --> 00:25:21,040 Speaker 1: In the co main event, ales Chandre Pantoja defeating Brandon 580 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 1: Royvelle fifty five fifty forty five forty nine forty six PC. 581 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 2: Your biggest takeaway from the fight. 582 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 4: Is what Pantosia is is a deeper reserve, deeper well 583 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,120 Speaker 4: than maybe we thought he did. We talked a lot 584 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,480 Speaker 4: about them pouring out the jug to dramatically win the 585 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 4: title against Marino, but take all that punishment in doing it. 586 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,680 Speaker 3: He turned into a champion though on. 587 00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 4: This night in his first title defense, because he used 588 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 4: his strengths to his advantage. He fought like a badass. 589 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 4: He pushed a huge pace early. And here's why this 590 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,959 Speaker 4: fight card was so great. This is kind of largely 591 00:25:51,000 --> 00:25:53,479 Speaker 4: a one sided fight, and the scoring represents that with 592 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 4: fifty forty five on two score cards, like you said 593 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,360 Speaker 4: in forty nine forty six. But yet it was dramatic, yes, 594 00:25:59,400 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 4: because Roy finally rallied in that final round. 595 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 3: But to see Pantosia kind of show at all, Luke. 596 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 4: He showed the pace, he showed the dominant wrestling and 597 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 4: the strength and the slamming, and even when they were 598 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,960 Speaker 4: fighting on the striking Luke, I thought he was controlling 599 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 4: those striking terms. 600 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 3: Pantosia could I'm sorry not Pantosia. 601 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 4: Royvalt could have a counter combination there, but Pantosia was 602 00:26:17,840 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 4: moving him with the counter right hands. 603 00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 3: He was really dictating the flow of that fight. 604 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 4: So, Luke, you got the dominant performance from the defending 605 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 4: champion who's maybe starting a rain here in a division 606 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 4: with so much parody, and you know, you got a 607 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,280 Speaker 4: gutsy performance from Royval. He had a flash, he had 608 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 4: a moment, but this was about holy shit, Pantosia. 609 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:36,880 Speaker 3: Give him the pound for pound respect. 610 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 4: It doesn't look like he's ready to hop potato, Luke, 611 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 4: He's ready to start a rain, and he looked like 612 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,960 Speaker 4: a strong ass dominant champions. That's what we want in 613 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 4: this parody crazy division. We want some stability. 614 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:51,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, listen to this. Listen to this stat line. Pantoja 615 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 1: landing ninety five of one hundred and fifty six attempted 616 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: significant strikes, eight of fourteen on takedowns. He's credited with 617 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:00,639 Speaker 1: a submission attempt in BC. It's just going to be 618 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: hard to win fights when you give up fifteen minutes 619 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: and fifty one seconds of control time. Again, not all 620 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:09,280 Speaker 1: of that is on top, some of that is against 621 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 1: the fence, but in general, when you're being controlled, when 622 00:27:12,080 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: you're being pressed against the fence, for that long an interval. 623 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: There's only so much you can do. Now, it's interesting. 624 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: I'm looking at stat line oh from the Moreno fight. 625 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 2: Huh. 626 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:21,920 Speaker 3: Can I interrupt for big breaking news for two Nuther 627 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 3: nine or no? 628 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 2: Go ahead? 629 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 4: Okay, Dan just said the press conference two ninety nive 630 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 4: Michael Venom Page versus Kevin Holland Wow, song you Dong 631 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:34,399 Speaker 4: versus p and Ian Machatle Gary versus Jeff Neil. 632 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 2: Ooh, ooh, that's a grudge match. 633 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:38,360 Speaker 3: Ninety nine. 634 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 2: Ooh, that's a grudge match. 635 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,959 Speaker 3: That's March. So there you go, there you go. 636 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,800 Speaker 2: They're not gonna do the Luque fight then interesting? 637 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,800 Speaker 3: Interesting? Oh yeah, but dude, Pantosia beast. I respect to Royval, 638 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 3: but Beast pantos The. 639 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,120 Speaker 1: Story of that fight is what that Basically, Royval did 640 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:55,720 Speaker 1: have good defensive sensibility, he had better takedown defence, he 641 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,159 Speaker 1: was patient in many cases, he's acted bottom active on 642 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:04,080 Speaker 1: bottom he could, but he couldn't get much offense going 643 00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,160 Speaker 1: really at any point to the judges having a fifty 644 00:28:06,200 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: to forty five, which I think is probably pretty fair, 645 00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 1: to be honest, And it wasn't like Marina performed poorly. 646 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 1: Excuse me, marine. I'm sorry, Weyvoll, it did. It was 647 00:28:12,560 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 1: like he performed poorly. The jab was a nice weapon 648 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: for him, but basically the thing about the jab was 649 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: he would touch, touch, touch. There was never a big 650 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 1: home run after it, right there was never He never 651 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 1: was able to like with it, really get the guy going. 652 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 2: In fact, don't you think it's. 653 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 4: Because Pantosia had kind of spammed him and put him 654 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 4: at such a defensive posture that anytime Rovale may have 655 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 4: had a moment take down three minutes down the ground. 656 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 2: That's why he came out so intense. 657 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: He was gonna set the physical tone right away, right away. 658 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,680 Speaker 1: I'm in your face, you're fighting for your life right away, 659 00:28:41,760 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: Shark attack right away. And it worked, It worked, It 660 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 1: put him in this defensive sense. And again, like, if 661 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 1: you look at this fight been compared to the first one, 662 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,520 Speaker 1: did you see defensive and overall skill improvements from Brandon Weuvill, 663 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: No question about it, No question about a guy who 664 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: would normally here's a big level of maturity you can 665 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 1: identify if somebody gets like you know, they're they're accepting 666 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 1: a takedown attempt, they're trying to defend it, and then 667 00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: they just jump on a low percentage submission and then 668 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: they're tying it to some other kind of like low 669 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,479 Speaker 1: success rate maneuver. That's when you can tell that they 670 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: have some skill, but they're not really fully defensively sound. 671 00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,960 Speaker 1: He didn't do that this time. He didn't jump on bullshit, right. 672 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,120 Speaker 1: He took his time to defend things the right way. 673 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: It's just you spent so much time defending. But I 674 00:29:29,760 --> 00:29:33,720 Speaker 1: will say this, man, Pantoja absorbed one hundred and forty 675 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 1: seven significant strikes against Moreno, he absorbed one hundred and 676 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: eleven and a lot of that is, you know, debatable quality, 677 00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:42,360 Speaker 1: but numerically one hundred and eleven significant strikes. Dude, that's 678 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: been a hillacious ten rounds for him, and we are 679 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 1: X factor for this one.

The problem 688 00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 4: is the Figuraedo had the harder cut, it seems it 689 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 4: seems harder. 690 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:09,960 Speaker 2: That he had a harder cut. 691 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: Also, I didn't think he had like a hillacious kind 692 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 1: of get a little more finesse in the right. 693 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 4: And he took and he so and he fights more 694 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 4: reckless than this was not a reckless version of Pantosia, 695 00:30:19,600 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 4: to your points, like this was a calculated He looked 696 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,800 Speaker 4: bigger and stronger. I mean he just, dude, he looked 697 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:27,000 Speaker 4: like a finished product and a champion. Whereas when he 698 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 4: beat Marino for the title, which also speaks, by the way, 699 00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 4: to Moreno's toughness. 700 00:30:30,840 --> 00:30:32,880 Speaker 3: He dude, he I mean, it was caveman brawling. 701 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 4: It really was.

And dude, who's gonna take that heat? 847 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 4: Who's gonna take that heat? 848 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 2: Dude? 849 00:36:10,520 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 3: I mean you. 850 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 4: So Dana was asked and he says, heyes, you want 851 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 4: to talk about what's next when they said it's blaw next. 852 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:18,000 Speaker 4: So he did say it makes sense for Edwards to 853 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,040 Speaker 4: fight in England, so maybe it's uh, maybe it's. 854 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 2: That's that's the right move. So they do you think 855 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 2: we'll talk about this more on. 856 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 4: Monday, so probably you never know, we'll see I mean this, 857 00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 4: this was a very good win for Shot in my opinion. 858 00:36:30,200 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 4: But no, it wasn't like the spinning head kick. One 859 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 4: shot chopped his head off. Oh my god, that's annoying 860 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 4: him the next big thing. But those who know, no, 861 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 4: he is the next big thing, and you were right, 862 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 4: and he's coming the hell on. 863 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,200 Speaker 3: And Lauras Senko was right to have those to have 864 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 3: those eyes. You know what I mean, she know. 865 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:44,319 Speaker 2: What she saw just sexualizing her work. 866 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,879 Speaker 4: There's nothing sexual about that. It's more about this. This 867 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 4: thing is coming and just get ready. 868 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 3: Is that a Benny Hill thing? 869 00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 2: No, it's the when you get the horny police. Oh yeah, 870 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,760 Speaker 2: b C. What about wonder Boy? Should he retire? 871 00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 4: He could, and we wouldn't have any shame because this 872 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,480 Speaker 4: is this does sort of signify the end, you know, 873 00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:08,880 Speaker 4: of the title hopes, unless there was a big comeback. 874 00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 4: But you know, he's forty. He's still very much there. 875 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 4: But I don't know this is obviously I think he 876 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 4: can still good fighters. He still could, He can still 877 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 4: be a good fighters. He's not forty in terms of 878 00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 4: what he's showing us, that's for sure. But again, his 879 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 4: title days they're done. They've probably been done for some time. 880 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,120 Speaker 3: But him against Cold, well, I don't want to watch 881 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 3: that build. 882 00:37:25,719 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 2: Oh, I'm just. 883 00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:28,719 Speaker 1: Gonna accuse his dada being a pedophile. They could mess 884 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,320 Speaker 1: up his business, Like, who wants to do that? 885 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 4: You have to fight and Gary now, I mean, I 886 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,000 Speaker 4: mean it's just a Gary's fighting who again? 887 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:37,439 Speaker 3: So Ian Gary's gonna fight Jeff Neil Jeff Neil. 888 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's idea. 889 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,640 Speaker 1: I remember Jeff Neil's coach is safe. So he was 890 00:37:42,680 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 1: real bitter when Gary put them on the mug shot 891 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:47,359 Speaker 1: on the T shirt. Yes, he didn't like that too much. 892 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:49,279 Speaker 1: So that'll be a fun little rivalry. 893 00:37:49,080 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 3: Daya said Marino. 894 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,160 Speaker 4: Albozi is probably next to year correct on that data. 895 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,719 Speaker 4: Apologize for seating DDP and strickling next to each other, 896 00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 4: said it was on him. 897 00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,480 Speaker 3: It was he didn't even think of it. And he's like, 898 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 3: I'm an idiot. Yeah, are close enough to each other? 899 00:38:01,560 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 2: Good enough? 900 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:03,439 Speaker 3: I'm dying here, Luke. 901 00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,320 Speaker 1: Let's keep this going, Okay, So then let's go further 902 00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: down the card if we can be seen. 903 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 2: How about Patty Pimblett and Tony? What do you want 904 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:10,439 Speaker 2: to say? 905 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 3: They had a lot of drama. It was a suspenseful fight. 906 00:38:12,920 --> 00:38:13,440 Speaker 3: It was fun. 907 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:15,960 Speaker 1: I will say this, dude, Patty showed a lot of weakness. 908 00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 3: Well, I was gonna say they both got out of 909 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 3: it what they wanted. 910 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 4: I think I know it's tell me why, because Patty 911 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 4: showed enough poise and sort of this hitman demeanor. Yes, 912 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,000 Speaker 4: there were times his chin was still out there. Defense 913 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 4: was not at a premium when they were throwing at 914 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,200 Speaker 4: the same time. But look, when Tony was trying to 915 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 4: mount rally in round three, Patty made the veteran move 916 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 4: of stepping in and taking him down, a sort of 917 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 4: just snuffing it, and I think it was overall like 918 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:39,520 Speaker 4: a step forward. 919 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 3: Patty's not perfect. He's not ever gonna be right. 920 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 4: There's always gonna be limitations, always going to be things 921 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,479 Speaker 4: that he does better than you realize or were willing 922 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:46,239 Speaker 4: to give him credit for. 923 00:38:46,440 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 3: But he was in great shape. 924 00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 4: He did have to come back from a serious injury, 925 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:53,200 Speaker 4: one year layoff, and the critical respect from that Jared 926 00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 4: Gordon fight just not. 927 00:38:54,120 --> 00:38:55,040 Speaker 3: Being there anymore. 928 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,080 Speaker 4: I know Tony is Tony, but Tony also wins in 929 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 4: my mind. His future employment all you want, but he 930 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:04,040 Speaker 4: wins on my mind because, yeah, it seemed like he 931 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 4: had to go through hell to prepare, but he seems 932 00:39:06,239 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 4: in a better place mentally, his chin looked better than ever. 933 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 4: I'm not trying to advocate for him to return. I 934 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,040 Speaker 4: think they will let him, but I'm not trying to 935 00:39:12,040 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 4: advocate that. But I think he retained you know, he 936 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 4: almost had a moment late like he retained a lot 937 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 4: of the respect that we all really do have for him. 938 00:39:21,080 --> 00:39:24,040 Speaker 4: He fought well, Luke. He tested a prospect who needed it, 939 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 4: like he kind of worked out the way it's supposed to. 940 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,279 Speaker 4: He didn't get injured, although he didn't take damage in 941 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 4: certain sequences, but you know, he does tie BJ Penn 942 00:39:31,440 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 4: for seven consecutive losses, the most of. 943 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:34,080 Speaker 3: The worst streets. 944 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 4: Time it's time to end it in UFC history. Time 945 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:39,080 Speaker 4: to you know, I mean, what's next? Levashak BKFC. I 946 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:39,839 Speaker 4: don't know, Luke, but. 947 00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:41,640 Speaker 2: I don't know. 948 00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:42,920 Speaker 4: I feel like they're going to give him the more 949 00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 4: I do they did to Cowboy, Like, I just feel 950 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,399 Speaker 4: like they're going to go, what is it, you know, 951 00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:46,960 Speaker 4: Matt Brown? 952 00:39:47,040 --> 00:39:47,719 Speaker 3: What is it is it? 953 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: They're going to give him one until he'd retires on 954 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: his own, Like I want to hang it out here 955 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 1: tonight kind of thing. 956 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't. I don't even want to keep like 957 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:58,279 Speaker 3: debating that because but I think they will. I think 958 00:39:58,280 --> 00:39:59,560 Speaker 3: they will. I think they're going to give it to him. 959 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,000 Speaker 1: I'll see this, Patty. He looked more muscled this time. 960 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 1: He had a really strange haircut. You know, had you 961 00:40:04,800 --> 00:40:08,040 Speaker 1: get the corn rows? Yeah, which is that's always a choice. 962 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:09,840 Speaker 4: That's really like if you pass out day drinking at 963 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 4: the pool at an all inclusive and like when your 964 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:13,640 Speaker 4: buddy's like, oh, you'll get the brave lady over here, 965 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:14,240 Speaker 4: Like that's what happened. 966 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: It's like, dude, if that haircut wasn't functional, you have 967 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,759 Speaker 1: the Kenny Powers haircut, you know what I mean. But 968 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:21,239 Speaker 1: it's functional for him, and so it passed his muster. 969 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,880 Speaker 1: He looked more muscled, his striking with a little bit 970 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 1: more fluid. His defensive problems are very much still there. 971 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:31,319 Speaker 1: And make no mistake about it. He gassed in the third, right, 972 00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: is that a fair assessment? He gassed in the third 973 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,280 Speaker 1: His chin is still in a silver platter. 974 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 3: But but Veteran moved just to snuff it out when. 975 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:39,560 Speaker 1: But he had a good game plan, finding all over 976 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 1: the opening for the right hand. 977 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 2: He was he was very good on the ground. 978 00:40:42,680 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 1: He was wise to put this fight on the ground 979 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,799 Speaker 1: when he did in various put within the second and 980 00:40:45,800 --> 00:40:48,680 Speaker 1: third round in particular, obviously like he did a lot 981 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: of good things that I had not expected him to 982 00:40:51,200 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: necessarily do. I will say I think he stepped up 983 00:40:54,160 --> 00:40:57,840 Speaker 1: here and not a not one not a picture that 984 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:02,000 Speaker 1: is without criticism, but uh, I thought there was growth 985 00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:02,879 Speaker 1: in Patty's game. 986 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 4: Ultimately, Dana White says that the pressure of performing in 987 00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,799 Speaker 4: front of Donald Trump may have gotten to Colby and 988 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,120 Speaker 4: on the flip side, Edwards probably felt pressure following Coleby 989 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:17,160 Speaker 4: Teen's comments, and White says, Kolbe looks slow and old tonight. 990 00:41:17,520 --> 00:41:20,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, he did. And I liked when the bosses being fair. 991 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:21,839 Speaker 3: The boss got to be fair there. I mean, look, 992 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,280 Speaker 3: Kobe doesn't say faced with that speech afterwards. The speech 993 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 3: afterwards sucked. 994 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:25,440 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. 995 00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:28,759 Speaker 4: It's it's I mean, it doesn't mean like he he 996 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,319 Speaker 4: won't capture our hearts again. 997 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,120 Speaker 1: Kobe wants to bang Donald Trump, right, this is just 998 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:34,319 Speaker 1: getting just wants to go there. 999 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,440 Speaker 3: And let you know, Josh Mma may have had the 1000 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,320 Speaker 3: knockout of the air. He may have. It's so brutal. 1001 00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:41,520 Speaker 2: It's so brutal, dude. That is close after this, that's fine. 1002 00:41:41,640 --> 00:41:44,360 Speaker 1: That is easily one of the most devastating KOs in 1003 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: MMA probably well, MMA history is pretty full with It's 1004 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 1: definitely one of the most devastating KOs in the UFC history. 1005 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is, was it the 1006 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: most spectacular, acrobatic whatever, I don't know, but in terms 1007 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:57,759 Speaker 1: of what it did to his opponent. When they had 1008 00:41:57,800 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 1: Bryce Mitchell twitching on the mat, he ran into the punch. 1009 00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 1: You saw him go low then come way over the top. 1010 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,880 Speaker 1: And dude, Bryce Mitchell, we didn't move his head. We 1011 00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,560 Speaker 1: talked about it. He's moving into it as the punch 1012 00:42:08,680 --> 00:42:11,919 Speaker 1: is moving into him and BC when they go face 1013 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 1: first like that and then when they start twitching and 1014 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:18,160 Speaker 1: then the toes curl, it's all bad. He needs dude, 1015 00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:21,520 Speaker 1: I gotta be honest. That's a career altering KO potentially, right. 1016 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: I hope not. I hope not. 1017 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 4: Now Dana said that Bryce went to the hospital and 1018 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:26,359 Speaker 4: passed all the tests and you know he's doing okay. 1019 00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, he needs some time off. 1020 00:42:27,719 --> 00:42:29,680 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean, and he took a beating against 1021 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,720 Speaker 4: the paria, So you hope it's okay, But that that 1022 00:42:32,840 --> 00:42:34,719 Speaker 4: could be one of those that changes the course of 1023 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,200 Speaker 4: your career or at the very least. 1024 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:37,480 Speaker 3: Unfortunately, that would take out a chunk. 1025 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:39,319 Speaker 4: I mean everyone said that just to compare like when 1026 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 4: Carrels Castile had the all time greatest boxing. You know, 1027 00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:44,360 Speaker 4: everybody knew in that moment they poured it out and 1028 00:42:44,360 --> 00:42:46,640 Speaker 4: they were never the same. So they're still in big fights, 1029 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,480 Speaker 4: but they were never the same. And I hope not 1030 00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:51,000 Speaker 4: for Bryce. But that's that's a perfect shot. And dude, 1031 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:52,759 Speaker 4: Emmett needed it, and he was in great shape and 1032 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 4: he had the full camp like he took advantage. 1033 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 3: And I hope he. I don't know, I won't know 1034 00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:59,520 Speaker 3: if he still has life left to turn it and 1035 00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:02,160 Speaker 3: make a run. But but I'm you know, he needed that. 1036 00:43:02,160 --> 00:43:04,080 Speaker 3: You got it. That's it, Luke eight hours in a 1037 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 3: row man, that's a. 1038 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 1: Dude, Josh Emmitt.
