And I was like, 54 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 1: because if they thought that you lived in and around DC, 55 00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,960 Speaker 1: I was like, no, no, no, he lives in Connecticut. And 56 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:31,519 Speaker 1: the exact response that I got was why it's a shithole? 57 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 2: That was the It was actually not a shithole. It 58 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 2: is such an underratedly beautiful state.

And 86 00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: I never have an answer for them, because I know 87 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: that we're working on some of these things, but I 88 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 1: can't just manufacture them. What would you say to people 89 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: being like, hey, we want a Monday, we want a 90 00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 1: Friday show.

What would you say? 92 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 2: I would say that you are not alone. Okay, I 93 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 2: am here with you, right, you know, though we're far apart. 94 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: Right now, here's the deal, as Luke often says, if 95 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: you don't think that's exactly what we are fighting for 96 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 2: on a daily and weekly basis, hourly basis at times 97 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 2: behind the scenes, then you are frigging crazy. It's coming. 98 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 2: It's on the horizon. You can see it. We're on 99 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,479 Speaker 2: the way to it. Yes, I know, it's been a 100 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:19,920 Speaker 2: slow rebuild. Luke said we were gonna do something that's 101 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: never been done in MMA podcast history before. Maybe they 102 00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:24,599 Speaker 2: meant we were going to sit around. 103 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,040 Speaker 1: Do you take shots at me about what I've said? 104 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 2: I don't because you're a very comical person. 105 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:33,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fine. But but like it's like Brian Campbell 106 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,120 Speaker 1: said he was gonna blow Craig Jones. You didn't actually 107 00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 1: say that. 108 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,799 Speaker 2: So if I said it, I would have followed. Luckily, 109 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 2: you know, Luckily, I am a man of my word 110 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 2: to a certain degree. What you gotta do, But no, Luke, 111 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 2: it's coming. It's coming. Guys. 112 00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: We had talked about doing things differently. It's just we 113 00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 1: have to get there. It takes a little longer than 114 00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:54,280 Speaker 1: we thought it is. 115 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 2: And look that the just so people always realize the 116 00:04:57,040 --> 00:04:59,719 Speaker 2: alternative was to like sit out for an additional like 117 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 2: six months. The fact that we are here right now 118 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 2: Monday's only normally today Friday in the Meadowlarks Studios, Manhattan 119 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,760 Speaker 2: is a testament to faith, belief in building and the 120 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 2: powers that be behind the scenes in the great Brian 121 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 2: Daily shout out, but we are getting there. We are 122 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: on our way. Let's all right. 123 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: With that in mind, BC, why don't we start the show. 124 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: Let's talk about UFC three Tozer two. As we mentioned, 125 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: it will take place at the Prudential Center tomorrow in Newark, 126 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,360 Speaker 1: New Jersey, where many a great fight has taken place, 127 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: like Colby Covington Robbie Lawler, or when I was there 128 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 1: for Kimbo Slics versus James Thompson and where the nick 129 00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: the Mad Monkey Sarah sat on his rear end the 130 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,840 Speaker 1: referee told him to stand up and he refused and 131 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:37,239 Speaker 1: was disqualified. Or but scoot and don't. 132 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 2: Forget about the diseases that were shared at the Newark 133 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 2: Penn train station on the way to the. 134 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:43,560 Speaker 1: Rock, all kinds of illnesses available for this is. 135 00:05:43,720 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 2: The best correlation of the Rock into the UFC brand, 136 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 2: way better than Project X shoes. Okay, this you know 137 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:52,480 Speaker 2: the prudential center the Rock. I love when the UFC 138 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 2: comes to the armpit of America known as Northeast New Jersey. 139 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: Let's do it well, Tisha Kerr Stevenson. I don't think 140 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:01,120 Speaker 1: he'll be there either WAYBC, your main event does and 141 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 1: what could be his last fight, or certainly in all 142 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: likelihood is his last attempt to get the title should 143 00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 1: he prove unable to get it. This this is going 144 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 1: to be hit and he has been very clear about it. 145 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: Takes on Islam Makachev. I was looking at something BC, 146 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,480 Speaker 1: and of course odds are not in any way a 147 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: final determinative factor. But someone had asked me yesterday, do 148 00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 1: you think he has more or less of a chance 149 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: against Habib? So I looked up the odds. If you 150 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 1: even our friends at DraftKings have Dustin Parier as more 151 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,880 Speaker 1: of an underdog against Islam Makachev than they ever did 152 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 1: against Habib, number getmade off. Do you find that surprising? 153 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: Do you understand that how do you view how these 154 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: two matchup and what kind of real shot that a 155 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,599 Speaker 1: beloved figure of the game that Dustin Poier is that 156 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: he actually has Saturday. 157 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: By those odds, I'm not surprised mother effort. Dustin's a 158 00:06:56,400 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 2: little bit older. Uh, he's fighting the clear, hands down 159 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:02,800 Speaker 2: best fighter in the world in Islamahachev, a guy who 160 00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,640 Speaker 2: is getting oh so close. And I'm sure we're going 161 00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 2: to break down a lot of the stats that are 162 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 2: sort of at stake or on the line, or that 163 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 2: he can continue on this win streak that has been incredible. 164 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 2: He's on his way to becoming one of the greatest 165 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 2: fighters in the history of this sport. It doesn't necessarily 166 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,000 Speaker 2: mean that right now we know he's better than Habib, 167 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,840 Speaker 2: or that that comparison between the two are necessary, despite 168 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 2: the fact that they nearly succeeded each other, but Charles 169 00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 2: Oliver slid in in between and they come from the 170 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: same camp. But I think I can tell you that 171 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 2: Islama Achev is a more well rounded fighter than Habib, 172 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,640 Speaker 2: and certainly there's a reason why he's at this point 173 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:35,520 Speaker 2: of where he's at in this win streak, which is 174 00:07:35,520 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 2: now thirteen atop the sport atop one of the deepest 175 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 2: divisions and coming off back to back wins as we 176 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:43,320 Speaker 2: see her fifty dollars haircut entering my shot right there, 177 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 2: coming off back to back wins over the guy that 178 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,160 Speaker 2: we thought was the best fighter in this sport. I 179 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: don't want to hear about the way class difference because 180 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: look what happened the first time around. It was close. 181 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 2: But Luke, does PORI. 182 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 1: Have a chat? 183 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 2: I think this this fight look UFC's turning into turning 184 00:07:57,800 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 2: the corner in the right way in my opinion. Right 185 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 2: now in terms of we've got a Connor McGregor Michael 186 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,600 Speaker 2: Chandler press conference in Dublin coming up right, that's gonna 187 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 2: feel like, you know, the gonna feel like the build 188 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 2: the Connor verses. All though, these are the type of 189 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 2: old tools from the playbook that we have asked them 190 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 2: to use, and they're using it. So what about this weekend? 191 00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 2: I just have to say it, you know, coming off 192 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 2: of twenty four to forty eight hours of just ingesting 193 00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 2: nothing but UFC hype material, which they do a great 194 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: job of from countdown to embedded to the press conference 195 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 2: and all that, Luke or the or the UFC two 196 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 2: three h two pep rally as you like to call 197 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 2: it what it is, This is suddenly a great fight. 198 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 2: UFC fell into it because of Poitier's resurgence and the 199 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 2: sort of come from behind stoppage of Ben was Saint 200 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 2: Denis coming off his own head kick knockout loss to 201 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 2: Gaietchee in their rematch. But Luke, this is still even 202 00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 2: though the UFC has done a great job selling it, 203 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 2: even though Dustin Poier at Thursday's press conference, like, if 204 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 2: you want to talk about Dustin, come out there and 205 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:53,440 Speaker 2: give us reason to buy in that this upset is possible. Luke, 206 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 2: What else could Dustin Poier have done? Coming in incredible 207 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,920 Speaker 2: top shape. Tan by the way, must have been hitting 208 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,200 Speaker 2: the Tanning bed. Yeah, ready for this mentally physically is 209 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 2: playing up the last chance element. We love the go 210 00:09:05,520 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 2: home walk off story from the older beloved athlete. It 211 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:10,640 Speaker 2: kind of ties in as well to the Cody Rhodes 212 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 2: ww storyline that just culminated at WrestleMania with the you know, 213 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 2: finish the story. This is what Dustin has twenty five minutes. 214 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 2: Not to make it all make sense, Luke, but to 215 00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 2: finish the story. They've sold the shit out of that, 216 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 2: they made me want to believe. Dustin has made me 217 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 2: want to believe. So does he have a chance in this? 218 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 2: Of course he does because he's so mentally tough, because 219 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,640 Speaker 2: he's so battle tested. He welcome, he makes love to 220 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 2: pressure and adversity. That's the calling card of who he is. 221 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 2: But Luke, it's not the age that's the reason for this. 222 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 2: But I have to believe that. As much as we'd 223 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 2: love to buy in the mythology of the old guy 224 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: doing it again and having this great moment, right having 225 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,360 Speaker 2: this great Randy Catour versus Tim Sylvia moment, this great 226 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 2: reminder of that anything's possible, fresh off of Max doing 227 00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,880 Speaker 2: that at three hundred. It's a great story. But he's 228 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: not fighting a guy with holes. He's not fighting Luke 229 00:09:57,360 --> 00:09:59,920 Speaker 2: rock Hold, which gave Michael Bisping his moment that put 230 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: capstone similarly on his career. He's fighting the best fighter 231 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 2: in the sport with no holes in his game, a 232 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 2: guy that is a matchup problem for Pourier at any time, 233 00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 2: any age, any level. Why, Because there is levels to 234 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: this game. Pourier is one of the all time greats, 235 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 2: one of the few that can get into the Hall 236 00:10:16,800 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: of Fame, regardless if you ever won an underspeed a 237 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 2: championship or not. But Islam's just another level, dude, and 238 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 2: at thirty two he's at the peak of his physical 239 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,319 Speaker 2: and mental prime. And I go back to the style matchup, Luke. 240 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 2: No one can speak to a style matchup better than you, 241 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,720 Speaker 2: not only in this podcast, but maybe in this game. 242 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 2: This is not a matchup that under any category outside 243 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 2: of straight ahead boxing if nothing else was added in, 244 00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 2: and maybe will. Although I think sometimes the intangibles of 245 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: Islam get covered up by his greatness and his finishing ability. 246 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,120 Speaker 2: This is as big of an uphill climb as you 247 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 2: can possibly get for a beloved fighter at thirty five 248 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 2: who's trying to buck the trend of your favorite. 249 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 1: Stat The initial question was about were you surprised at 250 00:10:56,480 --> 00:10:59,280 Speaker 1: the habibods which were still wide but not as wide 251 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: as this one? And when you begin to really look 252 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 1: at Islam's career, this is why I love this fight 253 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 1: so much, because the winner here really gets a lot 254 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: in the end. If your Islam Makachev, this is a 255 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: huge reward. There is no one quite on his resume 256 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 1: that certainly Charles Lavera was beloved and by the way, 257 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: was a full on weight class champion. That was a 258 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: really viable win. But I think there's some people who 259 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 1: kind of feel like it came a little bit too 260 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:29,240 Speaker 1: easily and Dustin Poirier, maybe he's better, maybe he's worse, 261 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 1: but it would provide a more sturdier test, and certainly 262 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 1: from a celebrity celebrated standpoint, this might be the best 263 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: name on his resume. Again, celebrated standpoint, you're taking somebody 264 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: who finished Connor McGregor, finished, Eddie Alvarez, finished Michael Chandler, 265 00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: finished Justin Gaetgee, and I can go on down the list. 266 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: That is a substantial boost to the resume should he 267 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:49,400 Speaker 1: get it. But I really want to go back, and 268 00:11:49,440 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: I want to make a point about Islam Makachev because 269 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,439 Speaker 1: I know people say that he is inactive. That is 270 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 1: absolutely not true. He's the second most active champion the 271 00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 1: UFC currently has people think because. 272 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 2: Of Ramadan that he's so this champion that's only flying 273 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,560 Speaker 2: in once a year to defend the belt and walking away. 274 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: And of course he had the two fights against Volkanowski, 275 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 1: who's not a natural lightweight, so that kind of contributes 276 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 1: to it as well. I understand that I'm not saying 277 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:11,839 Speaker 1: I don't want to see him more. I do think 278 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: he could be a little bit more active, but he's not. 279 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:16,080 Speaker 1: The idea that he's been inactive is simply not true, 280 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: or that he's some cheap version of Habib. Let me 281 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,160 Speaker 1: read to you some statistics that Islam has. First of all, 282 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: he is tied with Habib and Max Holloway with a 283 00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: total thirteen fight win streak, gets twelve at lightweight. That 284 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,480 Speaker 1: Bobby Green fight was a catchweight of one sixty, so 285 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 1: it technically does not count as a lightweight fight, but thirteen, 286 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 1: which if he gets fourteen, he's gonna leap frog GSP, 287 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: John Jones and Demetrius Johnson and of course Abiban Max, 288 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 1: he'll be just behind in terms of win streaks Anderson 289 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: Sillivan kamar Usman. That is the place at which he 290 00:12:44,800 --> 00:12:47,120 Speaker 1: is now at the precipice. That's the first thing. Strikes 291 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:51,720 Speaker 1: have sort permitted. He's eighth best all time in UFC history. 292 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:54,840 Speaker 1: He's top ten all time in significant strike accuracy at 293 00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: sixty point four percent and again at fifty five. He's 294 00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:01,280 Speaker 1: finishes in the top eight, Top five, with subs at six, 295 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 1: Top four, title fight wins with three control time. He's 296 00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: also in the top ten. He's number one at one 297 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:09,000 Speaker 1: to fifty five all time with significant strike accuracy tied 298 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: for number one all time with one point two four 299 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 1: strikes absorb per minute, which is so comically low and. 300 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,440 Speaker 2: It doesn't play into I mean it's low because of 301 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 2: the grappling take up, but then he sucks the life 302 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 2: out of you when you're down there. 303 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: And then lastly top four at one to fifty five 304 00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: and takedown accuracy sixty one point two percent. You might 305 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 1: be asking, what's the career percenta Jeff of bib It's 306 00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: forty eight and tied for number one takedown defence ninety 307 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: one percent. Dude, this fucking guy is on the precipice 308 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: of doing something very substantial a win over Porier, which 309 00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:42,640 Speaker 1: I think Pooria is overmatched, but this is a winnable 310 00:13:42,679 --> 00:13:44,760 Speaker 1: fight for him. Power's the last thing to go. As 311 00:13:44,760 --> 00:13:48,320 Speaker 1: you mentioned, this guy has been in the trenches, so 312 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: I think Islam also has his work cut out for him. 313 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,960 Speaker 1: But I just want to point out you're already talking 314 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: about a guy from a statistical viewpoint, and again what 315 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 1: the tape shows doesn't make mistakes for the most part, 316 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: doesn't get into bad situations for the most part, just 317 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,440 Speaker 1: really safe but dominant. Look at how thoroughly dominant he is. 318 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: You've already added Charles Lavera to that, You've added two 319 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: and Hooker before that. If you can add Porier to 320 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 1: that resume, dude, he are going to get to the 321 00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: point where we're already hearing absurd criticisms. I'm talking about 322 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 1: a borderline unimpeachable resume. Well, let's ask to Makachev. 323 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 2: Is that good if he wins this? If you want 324 00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 2: if you want to say, okay, well what about history? 325 00:14:26,520 --> 00:14:28,080 Speaker 2: Has he done there? Well, he would tie for the 326 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 2: most lightweight title defenses if he wins this. Pang with 327 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 2: like BJ Penn and with like you know, the legends 328 00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 2: of this division. But then I think the point you 329 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 2: made is the great we used to say Islam looks 330 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 2: great and this wind streak is great, but come on, 331 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 2: fight elite guys. But now when you take into the totality, 332 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 2: not just that stretch of Hooker, Charles Olavera, Volkanovski twice, 333 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 2: and now if he adds Poorier already got that win 334 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,480 Speaker 2: against Armandsaryukin, it's gonna be a great story. Lender's going 335 00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:53,240 Speaker 2: to run it back if you. 336 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: Will debut, But yet it has aged well. 337 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: And then has already recovered mentally and physically and whatever 338 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 2: else from that invincibility poll or in a second UFC 339 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 2: fight when he got knocked out. It's been so long 340 00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: ago and so removed that I can't even remember off 341 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 2: the top of my head. 342 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,680 Speaker 1: Who Who's got to think it was Audre Martinz. 343 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 2: I'd sometimes get confused the guy that got Kolby early 344 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 2: mixed with the guy that got was worthy Aflaerir's elvis. 345 00:15:14,720 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 2: He's already been through that, so it's not like, oh, 346 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:18,480 Speaker 2: this guy's been so dominant, But what happens when he 347 00:15:18,480 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 2: gets in a fight where it's even so I'm against 348 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,040 Speaker 2: Volkowski in the first fight where he had coach Craig Jones, 349 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 2: he had the ability to kind of neutralize to his 350 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 2: certain degree that great fighter, and he's still found a 351 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,280 Speaker 2: way and look what he did in the rematch. That's 352 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: the thing that it's like any other situation like this 353 00:15:32,920 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: is this is the dilemma that this fight puts you 354 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 2: in a good way, in an entertaining way, in a 355 00:15:37,160 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 2: way when you want to buy in from a betting angle, 356 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:42,880 Speaker 2: from a whatever angle is. We've seen enough to know, Luke, 357 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 2: that nothing's guarantee, whether it's Nuna's panya Wan, whether it's 358 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,000 Speaker 2: Usik Fury, whether it's whatever. Like we've seen enough lately 359 00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 2: to know, like you can't just go on the stats, 360 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 2: or you can't just go on the history or whatever. 361 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: But like Luke, this guy Mahachev is closer to like 362 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 2: immortality and and and all time greatness and the level 363 00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: that like Pourier in one night, here is trying to 364 00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 2: get the stamp to pass and he's probably already there anyway. Right, 365 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 2: He's that rare guy that you didn't even need the title. 366 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 2: But like he's trying to stamp in there, the guy 367 00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 2: cross Room is on his way of getting there as 368 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: quietly as possible. That's what makes doing this so hard 369 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 2: and so absurd. So Luke, you're torn with Okay, that's fine, 370 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: but what about those other fights? What did we not 371 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,880 Speaker 2: see that we should have saw? I've been doing that 372 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 2: a lot on this one. Fury Ustic is one of them, 373 00:16:27,760 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 2: Max Holloway, justin case its fights that coming in a 374 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,080 Speaker 2: certain sway or betting line angle or whatever, we both 375 00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,720 Speaker 2: thought win in that case. Yes, I'm just sort of over. 376 00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 2: I'm looking okay. You can bring up the recent big upsets, 377 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: whether it was Leon against Usman or whether you know 378 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:41,800 Speaker 2: what I'm saying, like the ones where it just broke 379 00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:44,280 Speaker 2: out the Poeton against uh out of Signia. So it 380 00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 2: puts you in a spot where you want to start 381 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 2: learning your lessons. Going okay, Dustin is on such a 382 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 2: streak right now, though, and it would finish. 383 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: This story got knocked out in the same day as 384 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: Spence Cross. 385 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:54,800 Speaker 2: I guess what I say, and that's why I was 386 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 2: going to amend it right there. You're right, but I 387 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 2: mean a streak of storyline. But story line doesn't win titles, right. 388 00:17:01,400 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 2: Storyline is nice. It's like when you get serve the 389 00:17:03,600 --> 00:17:05,199 Speaker 2: play at the elite restaurant, Luke, and you got the 390 00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:06,880 Speaker 2: vegetables that are made up just for decoration. 391 00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 1: Right. 392 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 2: The problem is he's fighting one of the best of 393 00:17:09,560 --> 00:17:12,439 Speaker 2: all time here and I just can't paint a picture 394 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,560 Speaker 2: for him to win. And as much as I want to, 395 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 2: when isom and he doesn't good job being the villain, right. 396 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:20,480 Speaker 2: He's not trying to be the hero or villain ever. 397 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 2: He's just I am who I am. I'm gonna beat 398 00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 2: every guy you put in front of me. But what 399 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,240 Speaker 2: Islam said at the press conference on Thursday is like 400 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: a dick move that puts water on this potential fun 401 00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 2: fire of Poorier doing what we think is not possible. 402 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 2: But look what Islam said on every turn actually makes 403 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: the most sense. He's like, I've seen guys that were 404 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: lesser wrestlers than me have their way with Poorier. I've 405 00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,360 Speaker 2: also seen Poorier come from behind and do these big 406 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,919 Speaker 2: knockouts that you all love against other brawlers who are 407 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 2: squaring up in front of him and Luke as much 408 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: as we love and dude, we love Justin Gaechee, Michael Chandler, 409 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,639 Speaker 2: Eddie Alva is all the great action heroes of this 410 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,840 Speaker 2: lightweight era who also happened to be title contenders and 411 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,360 Speaker 2: a lot of cases former champions. They do square up 412 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 2: and make it possible in the late rounds, in the 413 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: midst of a great fight for this to happen. I 414 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,800 Speaker 2: just don't think Dustin can lure Islam to that area 415 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,440 Speaker 2: where this could happen under those circumstances. I think he's 416 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,480 Speaker 2: going to need extreme luck, Like, would you say what 417 00:18:18,640 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 2: Holloway had against Gage in round one when he busted 418 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 2: the nose. It was almost it was like a perfect strategy, 419 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: but it was almost a perfect storm of luck that 420 00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 2: allowed that performance to happen. 421 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 4: Right. 422 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:31,400 Speaker 1: I think people overstate how lucky it is, but yes, 423 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: it is lucky. 424 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 2: But Poortier is going to need something dramatic like that, 425 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,439 Speaker 2: in my opinion, to be in this fight and have 426 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 2: a shot, because he's what's our history, Luke. Our history 427 00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: are guys that are either mistake prone or technically technically 428 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: not great kind of falling apart in the midst of 429 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 2: his fire. This man across from him does not fall 430 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 2: apart in the midst of any type of fire, Luke. 431 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,359 Speaker 1: I will say that the weight cut is an next factor. Now, 432 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 1: both of them made weight right away. Both of them 433 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:59,640 Speaker 1: had sunglasses on when they may wait publicly disguise how 434 00:19:00,280 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: drain they were. That to me is an X factor. 435 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 1: Now he's not traveling a ton for this, I think. 436 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: I think he's been in the States for a while 437 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 1: at this point, so that is also a mitigating factor. 438 00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:12,680 Speaker 1: But I will say that could drain him still be See, 439 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: we don't need to put some respect on Poorier's name, No, 440 00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: but can you. 441 00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:18,440 Speaker 2: Address what I was relaying to you what Islam said. 442 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 2: I don't think there's actually an argument against what he's saying, 443 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:24,160 Speaker 2: which is like, hey, Dustin's great, but what do wrestlers 444 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,199 Speaker 2: do to him? And look at me these there's a 445 00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 2: certain type of guy that Poria comes back and finishes. 446 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 2: Islam's not that dude, though, He's not that dude that 447 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:33,520 Speaker 2: gets in those situations. 448 00:19:33,640 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 1: So he finished off Michael Chandler, who has a similar background. 449 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,640 Speaker 1: But Michael Chandler so much more reckless, so much more 450 00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:42,080 Speaker 1: willing to take chances that a guy like Islam doesn't. 451 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:46,639 Speaker 1: But Islam also doesn't make nearly as many mistakes, and 452 00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: so that makes it so much harder when a guy 453 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,320 Speaker 1: isn't open to Again, good fighters take advantage of openings. 454 00:19:53,480 --> 00:19:58,239 Speaker 1: Great fighters make their opponents make mistakes. Dude, Islam is 455 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,560 Speaker 1: very resistant to that, super resistant to that. 456 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:03,320 Speaker 2: I think the only question is Islam I'm going to 457 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:04,960 Speaker 2: try to f around and get a guillotine to try 458 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:06,400 Speaker 2: to just like double. 459 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: Down, and he's going to go for a submission. I 460 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,159 Speaker 1: do think that whether he'll get it or not, but 461 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:11,959 Speaker 1: I want to put some respect on parti's name if 462 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 1: I maybe see because we've got some sound I want 463 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 1: to get to as well. I listed some stats for Islam, 464 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: it's only right that I would list them for Party 465 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 1: eight as well. These are only at lightweight, but consider 466 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 1: the gravity of them. Top ten for most wins at fourteen. 467 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: Top four for most finishes at ten, tied for first 468 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:32,480 Speaker 1: all time in terms of KO or TKO wins. Top 469 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: six for most post fight bonuses at eleven, fourth most 470 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,920 Speaker 1: knockdowns with ten top By the way, Melvin Gallard is 471 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: still number one in that category, which is fucking bonkers. 472 00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:46,600 Speaker 1: Top seven most significant strikes landed with eleven hundred and 473 00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,360 Speaker 1: ninety four, and top ten strikes landed per minute at 474 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,600 Speaker 1: six point oh three as an average, which is super super. 475 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,320 Speaker 2: It's incredible that he's here doing what he's doing right now. 476 00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:58,800 Speaker 1: It's absolutely especially for an elite fighter like this. And 477 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:01,440 Speaker 1: our guy Shack actually caught up with him. He actually 478 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 1: didn't text me this, which is why I feel comfortable 479 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: using it to a fuck himself. 480 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 2: The Shack MMA channel on YouTube. 481 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,639 Speaker 1: Someone asked me a question and it was what would 482 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:16,680 Speaker 1: be a more feel good story? The Michael Bisping UFC 483 00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 1: one ninety nine story or Dustin Partier winning a title 484 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: on Saturday, And I gotta be tell you you have 485 00:21:24,200 --> 00:21:25,480 Speaker 1: to think about that one for just a second. 486 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 2: No, no, no, you don't hold on. 487 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: They're a little bit different because Michael Bisbin was shooting 488 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,920 Speaker 1: a movie when he got the call on two and 489 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: a half week's notice to take that fight. So it 490 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: was the most abrupt of circumstances, which made that one 491 00:21:40,040 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: highly implausible. Plus that was a rematch and Rocold had 492 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 1: finished him off. One armed guarote in Australia dominated him. 493 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 2: What was that two years earlier? 494 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, crushed him. So BC, I want to play some sound, 495 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,720 Speaker 1: but first let's get an answer to that question. What 496 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,439 Speaker 1: would be a more feel good moment? Bisbying a one 497 00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:56,400 Speaker 1: ninety nine. 498 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,040 Speaker 2: Or done three or two easily this And I think 499 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:00,639 Speaker 2: part of that is because Bizzing in a lot of 500 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,880 Speaker 2: his career was a villain and played into that role. 501 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:04,960 Speaker 2: Not just like the foreign guy arriving on the scene, 502 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 2: but like there's been a lot of times where Bisping 503 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: has was looked at as a fighter as a villain. 504 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 2: That's what I've been open, honest and saying. 505 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 1: When he spat on the corner of Jorge River. 506 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 2: I mean he's always sort of been this like fighting 507 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:16,639 Speaker 2: off the image of what Dan Hendo did to him 508 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 2: at one hundred and the fact that he ended up 509 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,000 Speaker 2: winning the title and beating Hendo in the rematch, like 510 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 2: it's a testament of who he is. But even though 511 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,480 Speaker 2: his story became a great feel good story, I was 512 00:22:26,520 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: their cage side when it happened at one nine nine 513 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:30,719 Speaker 2: in La, I think Pooria is just so much more 514 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:34,080 Speaker 2: of beloved and luke he's in. He's almost endured more. 515 00:22:34,119 --> 00:22:35,600 Speaker 2: I mean, you can make a similar case. I think 516 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 2: the difference is Michael Bisping's almost the guy who did 517 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 2: climb the mountain and become champion. That we actually still 518 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:45,080 Speaker 2: debate and did a fun high court segment about it whether, 519 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,080 Speaker 2: even with the title win, is he actually really a 520 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:50,479 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer. Because the only thing really against Bisbeeing 521 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 2: the longevity is great, the gameness and two divisions. Wesn't 522 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 2: have a lot of big wins. He's got more big 523 00:22:55,280 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 2: name losses than he does big name wins. Dude Pourier 524 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 2: is overflowing with big name wins. Yeah, And I think 525 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: that emotional story that goes back to the build of 526 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 2: the Habib fight. It goes back to the twenty five 527 00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:09,760 Speaker 2: when he modified the Teddy the Teddy Atlas Fate phrase 528 00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 2: about the twenty five minutes to make it all makes 529 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 2: sense originally thirty six minutes because he's talking about boxing, 530 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 2: and now he's saying to finish the story. I mean, 531 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:19,240 Speaker 2: it's it's perfect storytelling. It's just it's it's the America. 532 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,720 Speaker 2: I mean, like he is the embodiment to me of 533 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 2: a smaller weight class, Randy Gutur, Like that's Dustin Poier's 534 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 2: legacy to me, Randy Catour in that sense, because this 535 00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 2: captain America, that it doesn't matter the age or the circumstances, 536 00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 2: or that he just is coming off of a devastating 537 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 2: loss on any given night, Luke Thomas throughout Dustin Poier's career, 538 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 2: and this is also in play on Saturday Night. On 539 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 2: any given night, greatness shoots out of him, and that 540 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 2: greatness can overtake anyone. And I don't think that was 541 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 2: actually the same with Michael Bisping. Although he did get 542 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,360 Speaker 2: to that title level and he did get that win, 543 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,520 Speaker 2: he wasn't as nearly beloved. And I think I've been 544 00:23:53,520 --> 00:23:56,040 Speaker 2: on record saying, look I like Bisping as a personality. 545 00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: I don't love him as a as a color commentator 546 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 2: in the UFC, and I think sometimes the reasons I 547 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 2: don't think he plays into his true personality enough of 548 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 2: being kind of a trash talking villain. I'd like to 549 00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:06,359 Speaker 2: see him. 550 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 1: He's very. 551 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:14,320 Speaker 2: Deferential, apologetic, almost almost like making an apology before criticizing 552 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: a fighter. But that's neither here nor there in the argument. 553 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 2: This is such a potential feel good story, but unlike 554 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,360 Speaker 2: the other recent feel good stories, I just can't talk 555 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 2: myself into it. So try and talk me into it. 556 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: Okay, So I want to point out something. Here's what 557 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,560 Speaker 1: the difference in the stories are. The best I can 558 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:30,800 Speaker 1: tell the Bisping story again, he had beaten Anderson Silva, 559 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:33,119 Speaker 1: an aged version of him, but he beat him. 560 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: I don't think he deserved to win that night, that's 561 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:35,119 Speaker 2: part of. 562 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: Okay, But getting dropped into third the way he did 563 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 1: and then winning decisively into fourth courageous, Okay, that's exactly 564 00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:42,399 Speaker 1: the right word. He has a little bit of a 565 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:44,479 Speaker 1: vibe when he won the title of the Little Engine 566 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: that Could. Whereas listen to this stat from Parier, and 567 00:24:47,400 --> 00:24:49,480 Speaker 1: this is the difference to me, Bisping was the little 568 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 1: engine that could par a. We've all been kind of 569 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 1: waiting for that moment to get over the hump because 570 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,240 Speaker 1: he's been in the company with elites. Listen to this. 571 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 1: This is from Andy Hickey MMA. You can follow him 572 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:01,760 Speaker 1: on Twitter. UFC three oh two will be Dustin Poarier's 573 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: seventh pay per view main event. This will set a 574 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,119 Speaker 1: promotional record for fighters that have never won the undisputed title. 575 00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:09,240 Speaker 1: Listen to this pay per view main events right where 576 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,080 Speaker 1: I'm going to go in order listen to these names, 577 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: Randy Gatoor, Anderson Silva, John Jones, Tito Ortiz, George Saint Pierre, 578 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 1: Chuck ladell Is, a bj pen Rich Franklin, Connor, DC, 579 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: Rashad Evans, Matt Hughes, Rampage Steepe, Vitor bel Four, Amanda Nunez, 580 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 1: Dustin Parier, Jose Aldo, and Kamara Uspan. He is among 581 00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:32,440 Speaker 1: the presence of people who have that one accolade. He doesn't. 582 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: This completes the puzzle, so to speak, in a way 583 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:40,879 Speaker 1: where Bispings felt like a hail Mary that just happened, 584 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:41,840 Speaker 1: to a hail. 585 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 2: Mary that validated a very good slash, great fighter I 586 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 2: think we already believe that Dustin is a very great 587 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:51,720 Speaker 2: fighter who just never it just never, the cards just 588 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 2: never went his way. 589 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 1: He had, you know, he had really tough fights that 590 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: were like uniquely bad matchups for him. The Olivera and 591 00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 1: Habi fights were really really tough matchups. Let's play some 592 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:01,520 Speaker 1: of this sound if we can hear that our guys, 593 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 1: Shack got ust to Shack for not texting me this 594 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,040 Speaker 1: because I would have told him to go fuck himself. 595 00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:06,879 Speaker 2: Oh okay, that's such well, I mean, I know he's 596 00:26:06,880 --> 00:26:07,200 Speaker 2: a big. 597 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 1: R part of this whole story which makes us fight intriguing. 598 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:11,959 Speaker 1: You see, is this could be we don't know. This 599 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: might be the last thing I. 600 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 2: See Islam ripping Poitier for basically doing the one foot in, 601 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 2: one foot out. 602 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,960 Speaker 1: All right, Cormier too, but he talked to Shack about retiring. 603 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: Let's see what he said, like. 604 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 4: I have to do it this time because I'm not gonna, 605 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 4: you know, get another chance. It's now or never next weekend. 606 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 4: But I'm just in a good mental spot, you know, 607 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:35,400 Speaker 4: I'm grateful and starting to be content with with my career. 608 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: And my legacy. 609 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,160 Speaker 4: I'm just in a good spot and ready to fight. 610 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 4: I feel like that's that's a position for me mentally 611 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 4: that I'm very dangerous in. 612 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:44,240 Speaker 5: It is do you feel like it's due or die now? 613 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 4: Or never? 614 00:26:44,640 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 5: This weekend, this coming weekend? 615 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:47,199 Speaker 1: It? 616 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:50,000 Speaker 4: I know it never is because I'm capable of anything. 617 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 4: I can climb back to this spot and fight again 618 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 4: for the world title. 619 00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: I can do anything. 620 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 4: I can grind back to it.

I'm not 623 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 4: gonna do it again. I'm not going to climb the 624 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 4: ladder again. I've been doing this a long time and 625 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 4: it's a very selfish sport and I'm ready to be 626 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 4: a father and be a husband and be home and 627 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:15,399 Speaker 4: be into a routine.

I'm just 629 00:27:17,520 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 4: this is it for me. 630 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 5: Will there be more fights after this? Should you not 631 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 5: become the lightweight champ? 632 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:28,040 Speaker 4: I'm not sure, man, this could be the last one. 633 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 5: Appreciate you sharing that. If you win, does that change 634 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:33,720 Speaker 5: this situation or is it time to go be a dad? 635 00:27:33,720 --> 00:27:36,880 Speaker 4: Regardless, I'm still in the fence with with with win 636 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 4: or lose, you know I I just want to be 637 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 4: content with my career. 638 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 2: Damn powerful shit right there. At first, I want to 639 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,160 Speaker 2: say this, I have so much respect for that man, 640 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,600 Speaker 2: like like, don't over don't overtake the harsh like man, 641 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:52,160 Speaker 2: I just can't find an angle to victory despite trying 642 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 2: not to be that ignorant dude who says there's no 643 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 2: chance that this happens. Do I want poor you to win? Yes? 644 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,560 Speaker 2: I want him to finish the story. I think naturally, 645 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 2: as a human you almost should because if you followed 646 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,840 Speaker 2: his story up and down like this, I love that 647 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 2: he's vulnerable enough to show us the near tears in 648 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:11,320 Speaker 2: that moment, because pre coping with the fact that it 649 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,600 Speaker 2: is almost over is enough to make him that emotional. 650 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 2: Because Luke, that's why we love his story this much, 651 00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:20,600 Speaker 2: because he lives for this, He bleeds for this, he 652 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:25,680 Speaker 2: dies for this, like he has cultivated such a connection 653 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 2: to the fan base through the ups and downs of 654 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,880 Speaker 2: his career. I mean, this might be the greatest story 655 00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 2: ever told if he does this, and he's got my 656 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,439 Speaker 2: vote on wanting him to do it. So I like 657 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 2: to see the honest and the vulnerable, honesty and vulnerability 658 00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:40,520 Speaker 2: there because You only can be a Randy Coutur like 659 00:28:40,600 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 2: person or a Dustin Poorie like person if you have 660 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 2: the ability to bounce back from the mental and physical 661 00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 2: damage that comes with defeats. Luke, I don't think people 662 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,680 Speaker 2: talk about that enough, like when when you lose when 663 00:28:49,720 --> 00:28:52,600 Speaker 2: you are expected to win, or when you build like 664 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 2: he did the build of the poory to the Herbib fight, 665 00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 2: where the story was all about redemption and finally doing it, 666 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 2: and then he didn't do it, and then he got 667 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 2: built up for another chance at Oliver and he didn't 668 00:29:02,640 --> 00:29:05,320 Speaker 2: do it. Looking he lost these badly. He lost these 669 00:29:05,320 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 2: one sidedly, disappointingly, the BMF title head kick knockout. To 670 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 2: be able to rebuild yourself constantly and still believe what 671 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 2: he does, believe that I could do it again if 672 00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 2: I wanted to, meaning make another run back here. That's 673 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 2: the testament to who he is, because you know he 674 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 2: goes through darkness to get to there's. 675 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:26,680 Speaker 1: In fact, he talked to Shack about that darkness. Let's 676 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:28,240 Speaker 1: hear what he had to say about battling depression. 677 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 5: What would be your advice to a fighter who probably 678 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 5: could benefit from talking to a professional, but for whatever reason, 679 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 5: isn't willing to take that step. 680 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,320 Speaker 4: I think for sure in the male side of a 681 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 4: mixed martial arts competition. I'm not sure if it's the 682 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 4: same as on the female side, but we feel like 683 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 4: it's a weakness to admit we're going through something or 684 00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 4: to seek help because things don't feel right in between 685 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 4: our ears. And it's not you know, it really isn't. 686 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 4: You got to take care of yourself and being prepared 687 00:29:57,680 --> 00:30:01,000 Speaker 4: to fight and being your best. The mental space is 688 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 4: part of that. It's all connected, you know. And I 689 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,160 Speaker 4: went through a really down time where I was depressed 690 00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:11,640 Speaker 4: and not in a good spot at all. And you know, 691 00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 4: I have a wife and daughter looking at me at 692 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 4: home and I have to be there and be. 693 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:15,560 Speaker 1: Strong for them. 694 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 4: So you put things in perspective, and I'm just thankful 695 00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 4: that I talk to the people I did, and I 696 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 4: have a good people surrounding me back home who care 697 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:25,440 Speaker 4: about me and really help get me out of that place. 698 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 4: And it's not like it's fixed. It's not like you 699 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 4: turn a key in a lock and it's clicked, it's done. 700 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 4: It's work every day. I have to practice this every 701 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 4: single day. It's not a one, one time fixes. All, 702 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 4: you know, I'm still dealing with it. I work with 703 00:30:36,120 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 4: I work through it every single day. It comes at 704 00:30:37,720 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 4: different times, at different scenarios, different levels of stress, you know, 705 00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 4: bring it out like but going through the repetitions and 706 00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 4: putting myself back in the right spot. It's something I 707 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:50,240 Speaker 4: practice every day. 708 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 2: As an American heras. 709 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 1: I'm so happy to hear things like this rather than like, Guys, 710 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: if you feel bad about your life, shove your emotions 711 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,880 Speaker 1: down and and just do more stuff at work Like 712 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 1: that is a recipe to being absolutely miserable, being a 713 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: bad father and being a bad husband. Fuck that, Like, 714 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,800 Speaker 1: go fix yourself. Yeah, that takes strength. 715 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:14,160 Speaker 2: Damn right, damn right. 716 00:31:14,160 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: It's same with BC dyeing his hair. He looks like 717 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: a fool. 718 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,040 Speaker 2: But I mean I woke up the other day and 719 00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:20,600 Speaker 2: there were no more grays up there. Who shoe polish? 720 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 2: Says in his back. 721 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know. 722 00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 2: It was an impulse move. What do you think does it? 723 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,040 Speaker 2: It does make me look like at least ten years younger. 724 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: I mean, listen, if you fool some people out there, 725 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:31,880 Speaker 1: I'm happy for you. You're not fooling me or at 726 00:31:31,920 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: the MKA audience more. 727 00:31:32,760 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 2: Generally, do the drapes match the Okay, that's I don't 728 00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 2: care about. 729 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:36,400 Speaker 1: Your cubic hair. 730 00:31:36,440 --> 00:31:39,239 Speaker 2: I want you to know that I want you all right. 731 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,760 Speaker 1: You see, let's quickly let's talk about the comin event here, 732 00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: which actually is a great fight. 733 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 5: Dude. 734 00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 2: I'm loving this card more by the day and hour. 735 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:48,880 Speaker 1: I'm telling there's some charm to it. The comin event 736 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,880 Speaker 1: absolutely has some. Sean Strickland is back after having lost 737 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: his title UFC two ninety seven to Driggs Duplessy, somewhat 738 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 1: controvers actually, I would say very controversially, depending on how 739 00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,960 Speaker 1: you one of you up. You did not controversially, just 740 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 1: fair enough, very disputed. I had DDP winning on first glance, 741 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 1: and then upon subsequent glance I thought Sean Strickland had it. 742 00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: Beshina is back, having lost to Robert Whitaker, but also 743 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: showing I think a little bit more maturity. Also, this 744 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:15,680 Speaker 1: is the first time he's fighting twice in a calendar 745 00:32:15,760 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: year since I think something like twenty seventeen BC. When 746 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,479 Speaker 1: you think about how these two matchup, and plus how 747 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 1: they've kind of interacted in person, where Strickland looks like 748 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,960 Speaker 1: and he said it explicitly I'm better than him and 749 00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 1: they know it. And Bowoshina is going back to the 750 00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: secret juice bit. I mean he needs a new bits ad. 751 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 2: It's a good way. They both did. They both failed 752 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 2: that press conference in my mind, and I know that, 753 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 2: like he thought so yeah, I thought Dustin won the 754 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 2: press conference. I thought Islam came close. Zingers, he was confident, 755 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 2: was funny. He didn't give an f But Costa just 756 00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 2: like so you had. Strickland really wanted to portray this 757 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 2: message that he always does that like fans, I'm only 758 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 2: here because of you. I love you. I want to 759 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,719 Speaker 2: go bleed and die in there for you. And I'm 760 00:32:55,760 --> 00:32:57,480 Speaker 2: not against that message. But he hammered it a home 761 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 2: like nineteen consecutive times every question he hold on. I 762 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 2: just got to say one thing, and it's like, no, 763 00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:04,640 Speaker 2: You've said that seventeen other times. And then Costa was 764 00:33:04,760 --> 00:33:07,200 Speaker 2: just like, I love New Jersey, this is great, right, 765 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 2: like you just really won. Try hard to get the 766 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 2: fans after him. It didn't work. This fight is crazy intriguing. 767 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:14,360 Speaker 2: Can I tell you why? 768 00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: Tell me why? On paper? 769 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:20,640 Speaker 2: Sewn, Strickland's right when you look at the metrics the 770 00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,680 Speaker 2: game that they have the fact that for what say 771 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 2: what you will about Strickland, every time he goes in 772 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 2: there against the elite, he continues to level up and 773 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 2: evolve and be even more dynamic and dangerous as the 774 00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:34,080 Speaker 2: stakes rise. He rebounded himself, Luke from a devastating knockout 775 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 2: loss to Poeton that could have ended his run as 776 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 2: a title contender. I mean, he's not young at all either. 777 00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 2: But Luke, even though he's supposed to win this fight 778 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 2: when you match him, match them up, and even though 779 00:33:44,040 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 2: Coasta is entering having lost three out of four against 780 00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 2: very great curves at four out of five, even against 781 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 2: very good competition, the true elite of the elite, I 782 00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:55,600 Speaker 2: actually think you have to look at where their stocks 783 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,000 Speaker 2: are actually at and going closely in a fight that 784 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 2: has the potential to be the close and Luke within 785 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,000 Speaker 2: a stretch in which I believe he has lost four 786 00:34:04,120 --> 00:34:06,720 Speaker 2: or five, and there were some stretches in there where 787 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 2: we almost give him negative credit for beating Rocold because 788 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,759 Speaker 2: he allowed it to become such a bloody brawl. And 789 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 2: I think even in the immediate aftermath of his very 790 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 2: bad loss out of Sonya and the public image of 791 00:34:17,560 --> 00:34:19,799 Speaker 2: the wine which I'll give him credit for turning all 792 00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:21,719 Speaker 2: of that into secret juice. And he's writhing the bit 793 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 2: till it's gonna die and I'm in the middle of 794 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 2: the desert. 795 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:24,399 Speaker 1: Luke. 796 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,520 Speaker 2: He back then, I was like, he's never gonna fight 797 00:34:26,520 --> 00:34:28,240 Speaker 2: for a title, He's never going to max out because 798 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 2: of the last four because he's too willing. I thought 799 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 2: to get in brawls and not lean on anything that 800 00:34:35,000 --> 00:34:37,560 Speaker 2: has changed. You got to give the coach the captain credit. 801 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:40,520 Speaker 2: Eric Alberto Sin seems to be a very strong influence 802 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 2: in the corner in the last few fights that even 803 00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 2: largely in defeats because again the one winning that stretches 804 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:48,040 Speaker 2: rock called. But you almost take a lot away from 805 00:34:48,120 --> 00:34:51,200 Speaker 2: him for why that fight became like that, Luke. He 806 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:55,239 Speaker 2: is improving and maturing and gaining patients and finding new 807 00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 2: ways to add wrinkles that I think only illuminate more 808 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 2: true strength he brings in, which is knockout power in 809 00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:05,440 Speaker 2: both hands, in both feet. That Luke, even though Strickland 810 00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 2: should win this fight, and boy does he have a 811 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 2: lot of reason to because he is, He's gonna get 812 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:12,800 Speaker 2: a huge money fight if he wins. Us whether a 813 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:16,520 Speaker 2: rematch with Drickis in Australia for the title. He could 814 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 2: get a fight with Izzy for all we know, in 815 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 2: a rematch. I mean there's a lot of bit You 816 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:22,080 Speaker 2: know what if bon Nichols ready eventually soon to make 817 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:25,719 Speaker 2: some big step month, So there's a lot that could 818 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 2: be at stake. But the one thing that Strickland used 819 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:32,120 Speaker 2: to do against Poeton before he tightened that up and 820 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,320 Speaker 2: then we saw a different Strickland in the Izzy and 821 00:35:34,440 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 2: DDP fights where he was so dialed in. Look, there's 822 00:35:37,280 --> 00:35:39,319 Speaker 2: still part of him that loves a little bit too 823 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 2: much being in a war. And I think if he 824 00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 2: takes the type of strikes that he's willing to at 825 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:47,360 Speaker 2: times to get his offense off against this version of Costa, 826 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 2: who I think is going to be a little bit 827 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:51,880 Speaker 2: more explosive and dynamic, then maybe even Strickland is is 828 00:35:51,920 --> 00:35:54,080 Speaker 2: gonna think he is because I think his stock is rising. 829 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 2: This might be the perfect storm for Costa to crash 830 00:35:57,520 --> 00:36:01,439 Speaker 2: the title picture, get a huge finish in here, and 831 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 2: maybe Luke maybe get close to to not only making 832 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,640 Speaker 2: a second run at the title, but maxing himself out. 833 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 2: I believe, I low key believe in the stock of 834 00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 2: where Paulo Costa is going right now that yes, maybe 835 00:36:13,120 --> 00:36:14,840 Speaker 2: four out of five times he's gonna lose this, but 836 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:17,400 Speaker 2: Luke will Saturday be that one time that he lands 837 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 2: that big one. It's not like I'm seeing warning signs 838 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 2: from Strickland, but they laid it out the press conference. 839 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,680 Speaker 2: John Anick, the host, confirmed it. There's so much more 840 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,400 Speaker 2: at stake here for Costa. For Strickland, it's more about just, 841 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 2: you know, defense and control, even though it's not the 842 00:36:30,520 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 2: mindset he's bringing in. He says, look, we're gonna bang 843 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 2: into each other and have a bloody war, but it's 844 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,080 Speaker 2: more like prevent defense to can to maintain his status 845 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 2: atop the division where Costa has so much more to gain. 846 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:44,279 Speaker 2: He can almost erase that streak of three losses in 847 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 2: four fights with one big one and could be on 848 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 2: the doorstep of a monster frickin' fight. And Luke, if 849 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 2: he is doing more things in line of taking his 850 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:57,080 Speaker 2: strengths but being more judicial and how he presents them. 851 00:36:57,320 --> 00:36:59,800 Speaker 2: Strickland's standing so close to you all the time is 852 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 2: certainly great slipping punches, but he may walk into something bigger. 853 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,759 Speaker 2: He may be too close for something really big here 854 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 2: that if this becomes that bloody war that Strickland wants 855 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 2: it to be. Luke, you can't have those type of 856 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:14,279 Speaker 2: fights against guys who have drastically bigger, bigger weapons than you. 857 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:17,000 Speaker 2: I think in this matchup, Coasta has drastically bigger weapons 858 00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:19,320 Speaker 2: in Strickland, and I think it's going to play a factor. 859 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:20,880 Speaker 1: I mean, this is a really interesting fight for me 860 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: from an ex's and O standpoint. I think in addition 861 00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 1: to everything you saying, which I certainly agree with an Echo, 862 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 1: I would also add one, people are losing sight of something. 863 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 1: This fight is five rounds. That could be a very 864 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:35,839 Speaker 1: important thing to think about. Here's why everyone focuses on 865 00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 1: the fact that Coastal loss to Whitacer and oh here's 866 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,360 Speaker 1: another great a level guy he lost to. But he 867 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: had showed significant maturity relative to what we had seen 868 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,160 Speaker 1: previously in that fight. To your point, Captain Eric Albert Erascene, 869 00:37:47,440 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 1: I think can continue to help him elevate in that space. 870 00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,440 Speaker 1: But more importantly, if you look at the career of 871 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,440 Speaker 1: Sean Strickland and his fans don't really want to admit this, 872 00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:57,719 Speaker 1: but it's true, he's got a Obviously everyone knows it's 873 00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 1: a very defense heavy style. But why. Part of the 874 00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:03,200 Speaker 1: reason why is he puts the traffic up there and 875 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,360 Speaker 1: he maintains the right distance and he's doing pushkicks. But 876 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,279 Speaker 1: the other one BC is the back pedaling. Remember, he'll 877 00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 1: put his head behind his hips and just backpedal out 878 00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,719 Speaker 1: of the way, throwing traffic and whatnot. And the reason 879 00:38:13,760 --> 00:38:16,279 Speaker 1: why that's important is because it makes him very hard 880 00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:18,600 Speaker 1: to track down. It makes them very hard to hit 881 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 1: his defense. There really isn't hardly any question about it. 882 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: It's a little unorthodox, but he's proven against Izzy, against 883 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 1: even DDP, proved that it can work really, really well. 884 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 1: But what's the problem with it. The problem is if 885 00:38:30,520 --> 00:38:32,840 Speaker 1: my head is behind my hips and I'm backpedaling, I 886 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 1: can never counter right. And so he ends up having 887 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,759 Speaker 1: these fights like the easy one wasn't that way, but 888 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 1: the Cannoneer fight and the Drikkis fight where Yes, in 889 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 1: the end, upon a second viewing, I did think that 890 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:47,520 Speaker 1: he won, but he's making them close because there's not 891 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: much offense going back. Now you've got a guy in 892 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,479 Speaker 1: Bohashiine who you know is going to track you down, 893 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: who you know is going to follow you. I really 894 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 1: want to see a guy. I don't know if he's 895 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,960 Speaker 1: going to get back to former champstadt. I wouldn't rule 896 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 1: it out, but it's hard to say. But in terms 897 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 1: of technical evolution, you've got Eric Nixon in your corner, 898 00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:09,360 Speaker 1: You've got extreme couture facilities and training partners, and you 899 00:39:09,400 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 1: can tell dude Strickland cares about his craft. I want 900 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,919 Speaker 1: to see if he can raise his game to put 901 00:39:15,920 --> 00:39:18,680 Speaker 1: a little bit more offense against I'm not gonna say 902 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 1: Taylor made, but the right kind of opponent to intercept 903 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 1: who's following it. 904 00:39:23,640 --> 00:39:26,720 Speaker 2: If he does that, he can win this fight somewhat handily. 905 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 2: I agree, But I still wonder if for as great 906 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:31,560 Speaker 2: as his run to the title was, and I give 907 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 2: him full credit, I mean to he snake charmed Dizzy, 908 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:36,919 Speaker 2: I never ever, ever, ever thought I would see that right, 909 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 2: and then goes in there and quite nearly literally down 910 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 2: to a point, nearly defended his title against DDP in 911 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 2: a very tough fight. I just wonder can he do 912 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 2: this again, because it's almost like he goes out there 913 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 2: and throws a no hitter in a way. Luke, you 914 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,920 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, And it's defensive and everything You're 915 00:39:51,920 --> 00:39:53,880 Speaker 2: saying maybe sometimes there's not enough offense in there to 916 00:39:53,960 --> 00:39:56,080 Speaker 2: kind of leave no doubt if he leaves this a 917 00:39:56,160 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 2: close fight and leaves Coast to the opportunity to land 918 00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 2: something big. He's so great at shutting down sustained offense, 919 00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:04,000 Speaker 2: like is he needs to build upon his offense to 920 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 2: be able to knock you out? Is he doesn't have 921 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,160 Speaker 2: a lot. I mean, the Whittaker was a one punch knockout, 922 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 2: but he. 923 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 1: Leaned back and just crushed him with it. 924 00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:15,160 Speaker 2: I fear more him fighting a single strike knockoutartist, a 925 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 2: knockout artist like like Coast is, because he really only 926 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 2: has to get lucky that one time again, Like, wouldn't 927 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 2: be the type of fight that that you know four 928 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:22,759 Speaker 2: out of five times? Do I think he can get 929 00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:23,359 Speaker 2: his hand raised? 930 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 1: No? 931 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:25,959 Speaker 2: I just wonder if the timing is right and where 932 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 2: Strickland's exactly going to be at mentally, emotionally. Is he 933 00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:30,799 Speaker 2: going to take this as serious as he needs to? 934 00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:32,880 Speaker 1: I think he will. We actually have some sound I 935 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 1: want to play from him as well. Let me say something, 936 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,759 Speaker 1: I've heard this clip before the show again. Shack texts me, 937 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: and I'm just like block every time, Right, It's great. 938 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:44,200 Speaker 1: But he did this interview and he got a piece 939 00:40:44,239 --> 00:40:49,359 Speaker 1: of sound from Strickland that is the most insightful thing 940 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: I think he's ever said. And I agree with every 941 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:52,279 Speaker 1: single word about it. 942 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,080 Speaker 2: Oh when he was talking about Justin Trudeau, No. 943 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 1: I didn't hear that one. Well, he did talk about happiness. 944 00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:02,719 Speaker 1: This I thought was extremely correct by him, super insightful. 945 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:07,640 Speaker 5: Let's hear your sort of self validation was tied so 946 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,160 Speaker 5: much to the letters you FC prior to your motorcycle accident, 947 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,719 Speaker 5: and how during that time dealing with the recovery, you 948 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 5: kind of just figured out like this isn't the end. 949 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:17,200 Speaker 1: All bail what. 950 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,960 Speaker 6: But I mean that's kind of that's what like society does, 951 00:41:20,040 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 6: like you know, they have you pursue something that you 952 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 6: think you want just to realize like, oh, that's not 953 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:26,760 Speaker 6: really what makes you happy. 954 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 5: You know. 955 00:41:27,080 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 6: I always use like Andrew Tate and even like that 956 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,680 Speaker 6: Dan Brazilian guy, like you know, because they they are 957 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:38,600 Speaker 6: like influencers in the world, and like generally, if you 958 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:41,680 Speaker 6: idolize people like this, you're just gonna end up like 959 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 6: miserable and depressed, you know. 960 00:41:44,480 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 2: And that's kind of like how it was with UFC. 961 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:49,520 Speaker 6: Like I idolized the idea of being a camera, of 962 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 6: being a fighter, like it was my pride. I wanted 963 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:56,360 Speaker 6: to be famous, and then you start realizing, man, like 964 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 6: that doesn't make you happy. 965 00:41:57,840 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 2: You know. It's like, what makes you happy is generally 966 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:00,800 Speaker 2: in the right things. 967 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 6: You know, like you know, being good to your woman, 968 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 6: you know, living a good life, not being a shit bag. 969 00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 6: And these are all very. 970 00:42:06,400 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 2: Difficult and things accomplish, but. 971 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:12,800 Speaker 6: Like generally it's generally it's leads to like more of 972 00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 6: a long term happiness and more success. 973 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 2: Look, he doesn't, he doesn't always, you know, get it 974 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,319 Speaker 2: wrong if you're on the side that I tend to be. 975 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 2: On a lot of things that he says publicly, Luke, 976 00:42:24,200 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 2: he does sort of like he's almost when he's talking 977 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,279 Speaker 2: in this vein, sort of the anti hero that UFC needs. 978 00:42:30,280 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 2: We sometimes look at like the DZ Brothers as anti 979 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:34,520 Speaker 2: heroes because it's you know, middle finger everything and we're 980 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:36,600 Speaker 2: not going to stand in line like you want us to. 981 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 2: But it's not every topic with Strickland, because he's gonna 982 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:41,799 Speaker 2: be honest and rail against whatever he believes, and he 983 00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 2: believes firmly in each one. And there's a lot of 984 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:45,759 Speaker 2: things that I think, man, is he heavy handed or 985 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,359 Speaker 2: just absurd or a problem in speaking publicly, But some 986 00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 2: of these things that he's able to point out about 987 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 2: everyday life, and it's almost like it's almost like dirt 988 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 2: bag philosopher in a way. But he's not wrong. I 989 00:42:57,760 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 2: don't think he's wrong in the way he looks at 990 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,399 Speaker 2: not wrong. His connection to the employer. He We're gonna 991 00:43:02,400 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 2: have him talking about fighter pay in a minute. I 992 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:06,240 Speaker 2: don't think he's wrong on a lot of these things. 993 00:43:06,320 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 2: And I think I would almost like him to use 994 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 2: his powers for goodmore. And I do think he's growing 995 00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,040 Speaker 2: as a person from this process. I do think what 996 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:14,319 Speaker 2: he said at Thursday's press conference was true when you 997 00:43:14,360 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 2: think the fan saying like this has allowed me to 998 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:18,880 Speaker 2: sort of grow up and not be, you know, as 999 00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:20,839 Speaker 2: much of a danger to myself. And I mean, we're 1000 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:24,600 Speaker 2: watching him evolve to a certain degree. I'm not ready to, 1001 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:26,719 Speaker 2: you know, nominate him for a Pulitzer Prize. 1002 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,120 Speaker 1: Or me neither, but I will say something like him 1003 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,760 Speaker 1: a Peace Prize. I think through this process of fighting 1004 00:43:30,800 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 1: and through winning and losing and then forming a community 1005 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 1: at extreme guture, he's learning who he is and he's 1006 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 1: learning what actually matters in the world. And I think 1007 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:43,520 Speaker 1: he again, I don't know the guy, but he seems 1008 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:47,320 Speaker 1: to prefer a simpler life and again working on his craft, 1009 00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: being part of the small circle that he has and 1010 00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,040 Speaker 1: just kind of keeping it that way. I think that's 1011 00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:52,640 Speaker 1: probably gonna be good for him long term. 1012 00:43:52,680 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 2: He said, I'm countdown that after his career is over, 1013 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,279 Speaker 2: he's going to find a small town and just live 1014 00:43:57,320 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 2: a regular you know, is. 1015 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:00,000 Speaker 1: One thing he said that I really just want to 1016 00:44:00,040 --> 00:44:02,440 Speaker 1: stop and take a moment to like be like so 1017 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,839 Speaker 1: so true. But he says, like, you know, you have 1018 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 1: to do the right things. You have to be good 1019 00:44:06,440 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: to your he says, woman, but your partner. You have 1020 00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:11,600 Speaker 1: to be good to the people around you. You have 1021 00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:13,040 Speaker 1: to try, and he goes, these are not easy things 1022 00:44:13,040 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 1: to do. I'm so glad that he said that people 1023 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 1: make it out to be that like being a good 1024 00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,080 Speaker 1: person and being a good husband, or being a good 1025 00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 1: partner or being a good friend, that these are things 1026 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,360 Speaker 1: that are easy to do all the time, and the 1027 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:27,520 Speaker 1: older you get, the more you realize it's actually quite difficult. 1028 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,399 Speaker 1: It's not so hard necessarily to know what those things are. 1029 00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,600 Speaker 1: All those sometimes that can be the case. But just 1030 00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,040 Speaker 1: to live and I have to wake up every day, 1031 00:44:35,040 --> 00:44:36,440 Speaker 1: how do I be good to you? How do I 1032 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 1: good to be good to bed? How to be good 1033 00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 1: to my wife and my kid and myself and the 1034 00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:41,359 Speaker 1: people around me, like. 1035 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,400 Speaker 2: Themers of our staff that trade trump coin? How do 1036 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 2: you be good for them? 1037 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: You know, sell, sell sell, Yeah, they're gonna make a 1038 00:44:47,239 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: lot of money. Sometimes I come here and I take 1039 00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:50,719 Speaker 1: a dump in the no dump bathroom. You I'm not 1040 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 1: I'm not. 1041 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 2: I'm not always. We have video proof of that, just 1042 00:44:54,680 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 2: a case we need it. 1043 00:44:55,520 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 1: I'm not always being my best self. But I have 1044 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 1: thought about this exact thing about dude, living a good life, 1045 00:45:01,080 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 1: an appropriate life is hard. It is not easy. 1046 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:06,359 Speaker 2: Do you think over a beer without cameras there by 1047 00:45:06,360 --> 00:45:08,480 Speaker 2: a fire with Sean Strickland, we could we could come 1048 00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:09,879 Speaker 2: to some middle ground as men. 1049 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:11,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just don't think gay people should be stoned 1050 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 1: to death. That's really what I think. There are people 1051 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 1: and they should be treated as people. 1052 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,160 Speaker 2: Well, he can be your hero or your enemy based 1053 00:45:19,200 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 2: on the day. I mean, he's standing up to the UFC, 1054 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,359 Speaker 2: standing up to a lot of people. But Luke, when 1055 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:24,000 Speaker 2: I look at this card, and if I was looking 1056 00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 2: at at it from a betting point of view, I'm 1057 00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:31,520 Speaker 2: taking Mad you have by third round submission, wow, and 1058 00:45:31,600 --> 00:45:35,120 Speaker 2: Coasta by fourth round stop. I'm going for like the 1059 00:45:35,239 --> 00:45:38,160 Speaker 2: hail Mary parlay, it's not a Hailmary in the main event, 1060 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:41,439 Speaker 2: because it's certainly the expected breakdown of how this fight 1061 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:43,160 Speaker 2: is going to go. I think though, that that that 1062 00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 2: Corier does tap out unfortunately a third time in a 1063 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:48,480 Speaker 2: title fight, because of who he's facing. I think Coasta 1064 00:45:48,480 --> 00:45:50,359 Speaker 2: can pull this off. Where are you at on this 1065 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,040 Speaker 2: co main event? If you had to make a lean, 1066 00:45:52,200 --> 00:45:52,839 Speaker 2: so it is close. 1067 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 1: My my main event pick is identical to yours. Islam 1068 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:59,960 Speaker 1: third round sub I'm going to say Strickland by decision. 1069 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:02,399 Speaker 1: I am going to say that I don't think he's 1070 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 1: got the firepower to put Coast away. I think Coasta 1071 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 1: can make this very tricky, very very like. By the way, 1072 00:46:09,120 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 1: it's not that if Costa fails this test you can 1073 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: just write him off. But if he passes this test, 1074 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:17,600 Speaker 1: it's a huge boot. He doesn't have a win this 1075 00:46:17,719 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 1: good yeah on his resume by a million miles, and 1076 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:23,040 Speaker 1: if he makes it exciting, a loss is kind of forgivable. Too, 1077 00:46:23,040 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 1: because it's just hard to do that. But the problem 1078 00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,600 Speaker 1: is Strickland just finds ways to put the fight on 1079 00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 1: his terms. So it's a big test for Poulo Kast. 1080 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 2: I'm going to as got to make it a fight 1081 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:35,080 Speaker 2: which Strickland will applige you in terms of the distance. 1082 00:46:35,120 --> 00:46:36,480 Speaker 2: He just want to blige you in terms of the 1083 00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 2: open target. Coast has got to years down. 1084 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: But I agree, I I it's it's a highly intriguing one. 1085 00:46:44,239 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Strickland be a decision, but it's a 1086 00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 1: tough one. Okay. By the way, five rounds one more time. 1087 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 1: As a reminder quickly on the rest of this card, 1088 00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:51,080 Speaker 1: if I can. 1089 00:46:51,080 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 2: Hold on before we get there, Luke, and we're talking 1090 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 2: about the idea of parlays and and and rundling things 1091 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 2: together and about parlaying great partnerships together.

By the way, 1135 00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:57,799 Speaker 1: they moved Jelton Almeta versus Alexander Romanov off the main card, 1136 00:48:57,840 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: put it on the prelims. They elevated the Nico Rice 1137 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,560 Speaker 1: versus Alex Morono fight. I don't hate the call one 1138 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 1: way or the other. 1139 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:05,959 Speaker 2: It's interesting because they prioritize heavyweights on the main card 1140 00:49:06,080 --> 00:49:09,440 Speaker 2: always all these Fightmanov showed up not looking good. So 1141 00:49:09,440 --> 00:49:11,239 Speaker 2: the thing is, Luke, he's been doing that on like 1142 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:14,359 Speaker 2: four or five fights in a row. Yeah, yeah, what 1143 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 2: is going on? Because when he's in shape, he's a 1144 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 2: much much different fighter than the guy that we've seen 1145 00:49:20,040 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 2: implode and fall apart put it back together, but not fully. 1146 00:49:23,000 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 2: What do you know about it? 1147 00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:25,799 Speaker 1: I don't know exactly everything that's going on in his 1148 00:49:25,840 --> 00:49:28,399 Speaker 1: personal life, but it is derailing a guy who had 1149 00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:29,840 Speaker 1: a lot of ability and I think a lot of 1150 00:49:29,880 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: promise in pwer wrestler and power and still still mind. 1151 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 1: I don't say he doesn't, but it definitely puts in 1152 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,759 Speaker 1: a weird position. Jelton Almeida also didn't do himself any 1153 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:40,880 Speaker 1: favors in that Curtis Blades fight, just kind of chasing 1154 00:49:40,960 --> 00:49:43,960 Speaker 1: takedowns that weren't really all that there or a position 1155 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 1: that wasn't a. 1156 00:49:44,560 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 2: Good ass fight though Almeida versus versus Romanov, I mean 1157 00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:48,480 Speaker 2: this would be Almdea's bounce pack. 1158 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:53,239 Speaker 1: The opportunity Romanov is really just ship the bed. 1159 00:49:53,480 --> 00:49:54,879 Speaker 2: I mean it has a lot of lay and prey 1160 00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 2: potential here. 1161 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 1: But okay, either way, Kevin Holland is back against Michael 1162 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,040 Speaker 1: olok Shashik, Kevin Holland kind of been up and down. 1163 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 1: He wins too, he loses to. He wins too, he 1164 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 1: loses to. This is the kind of opponent that in 1165 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 1: the past who by the way, Olk Shihiak, we should 1166 00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,440 Speaker 1: also say I think twelve thirteen fights into the UFC 1167 00:50:11,520 --> 00:50:14,760 Speaker 1: has also been very up and down. Kevin Holland should 1168 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 1: win this, and of course some of the losses have 1169 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 1: been on short notice. Then there was the one to Hamzat. 1170 00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:20,280 Speaker 1: There a lot of create like he fights tough guys, 1171 00:50:20,360 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 1: not like he fights scrubs. I feel like he should 1172 00:50:22,960 --> 00:50:23,600 Speaker 1: win this one. 1173 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:25,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, he could just never guarantee that he wins. Almost 1174 00:50:25,880 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 2: on a Rose type cycle that Pat Berry used to 1175 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 2: say that you know she's gonna win three and then 1176 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 2: she's gonna lose badly in the fourth, and it's just 1177 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 2: going to keep going like that in his career. He 1178 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 2: should win this based on that trajectory of sort of 1179 00:50:36,280 --> 00:50:38,799 Speaker 2: the two wins, two losses, and they're always in the 1180 00:50:38,840 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 2: extreme last minute scenario, or fought the wrong style and 1181 00:50:42,600 --> 00:50:45,600 Speaker 2: larned himself into a war. This is the get right fight, 1182 00:50:45,640 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 2: and I think it's the get right opponent now, mihal 1183 00:50:47,640 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 2: Olashayshak certainly could win an alpharrand impersonation contest. Look impersonating 1184 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 2: an impersonator, there'd be a lot of a lot of 1185 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 2: all right gets home alone here. So what I'll say, though, 1186 00:50:57,760 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 2: Luke is Colin needs to kind of go back to 1187 00:51:00,640 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 2: what originally when he cut down to welterweight. What I 1188 00:51:03,600 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 2: loved about what he brought to this division. The weight 1189 00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,240 Speaker 2: cut didn't sacrifice what he can do on the ground. 1190 00:51:08,480 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 2: And Luke, when he's taking guys down, I feel like 1191 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:13,720 Speaker 2: it makes his striking in his one punch knockout ability 1192 00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:17,040 Speaker 2: so much you know, it just it, It fuels it 1193 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,200 Speaker 2: so much more. I think this is a fight where 1194 00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 2: he won't have trouble on the ground when he goes there, 1195 00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 2: and I think he can knock out me. How olshayshek 1196 00:51:23,600 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 2: and remind us of ourselves who he is. I mean, look, 1197 00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 2: he he gets brought around for ideas of big fights. 1198 00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:31,120 Speaker 2: His name gets thrown around a lot, whether it's to 1199 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 2: test somebody on the way up. 1200 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 1: Or you know, you know Kevin Holland back at one 1201 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:35,440 Speaker 1: eighty five for this too. 1202 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:37,400 Speaker 2: By the way, Oh, this is one, that's right, It 1203 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 2: is one eighty five, which I don't love. But is 1204 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:42,360 Speaker 2: that gonna make him what do you think that'll How 1205 00:51:42,400 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 2: will that inform his wrestling choices? 1206 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: I don't think he's gonna want to wrestle too much. 1207 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 1: He might grab that dars if Alak Shishak gets a 1208 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 1: little froggy, that's always a thing he can do. 1209 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:53,279 Speaker 2: But he's more skilled. He should win this, right, he 1210 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:54,200 Speaker 2: should win this. 1211 00:51:54,200 --> 00:51:55,759 Speaker 1: This is the kind of guy who is a good 1212 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 1: test but Holland has a lot of ability in a 1213 00:51:58,239 --> 00:52:00,520 Speaker 1: lot of different areas. It's not just striking. I guess 1214 00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: we're gonna have to see Nico Price, who has also 1215 00:52:02,600 --> 00:52:05,359 Speaker 1: been I think very more down than up, is back 1216 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,480 Speaker 1: after a long layoff at one hundred and seventy pounds 1217 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:11,360 Speaker 1: against the kind of semi surging Alex Moreno, who's I 1218 00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:17,239 Speaker 1: think done a lot to maximize his potential. Yes, more 1219 00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 1: No gonna be a little bit more crafty, safe so 1220 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:20,759 Speaker 1: old students, so you know he's gonna be looking to 1221 00:52:21,040 --> 00:52:23,040 Speaker 1: really outthink Nico Price, who was a bit of a 1222 00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 1: barbary in which we say affectionately, but really it is true. 1223 00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:27,359 Speaker 1: He'll take a lot of risk along the way. 1224 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 2: There's one in four with one no contest Nico Price 1225 00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,279 Speaker 2: in his last six fights, Luke, and he's lost two 1226 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,640 Speaker 2: in a row. But I follow him one of my 1227 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 2: favorite guys to watch in sort of a fun and 1228 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:37,279 Speaker 2: entertainment way. 1229 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 5: Luke. 1230 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:39,719 Speaker 2: The interviews he was giving ahead of the last few 1231 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:41,880 Speaker 2: fights were more in the direction of I know I 1232 00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 2: have this brawling explosive ability, but I got to kind 1233 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,319 Speaker 2: of rate it in Luke. He's changed that after the 1234 00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,760 Speaker 2: recent defeats. You know what he said now that every 1235 00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,879 Speaker 2: single fight he's gonna go balls to the wall, He's 1236 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:53,400 Speaker 2: gonna bring it. We're gonna see the old school crazy 1237 00:52:53,400 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 2: man Nico Price. Some would say that guy never left Luke, 1238 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,120 Speaker 2: but he's telling you he'll be back. Is that enough? 1239 00:52:58,160 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 2: Is that enough to get his hand raised? 1240 00:52:59,440 --> 00:53:02,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. Also, I think he's got the Antonio 1241 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:04,280 Speaker 1: Kramarti thing. I think he's got like a billion kids 1242 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:05,759 Speaker 1: that can be tough to deal with. 1243 00:53:05,840 --> 00:53:08,960 Speaker 2: Let him spray, Just let him spray, Okay, please, Luke. 1244 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,719 Speaker 2: Do you care about Grant Dawson coming back here a 1245 00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:11,839 Speaker 2: lightweight against Joe so lucky. 1246 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:15,560 Speaker 1: I think he got derailed in terms of his progress. 1247 00:53:15,640 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 1: This is a big one. Also, don't forget last part 1248 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 1: fight on the main card is going to be the 1249 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,360 Speaker 1: Randy Brown Eliza Zeleski do Santos fight, which should be 1250 00:53:21,440 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 1: a great striking battle. Don't really know where it puts 1251 00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: the winner, but indeed it should be fun. 1252 00:53:26,480 --> 00:53:28,400 Speaker 2: We are also seeing an aftermarket Mickey gall trying to 1253 00:53:28,480 --> 00:53:29,840 Speaker 2: keep his career alive on Home. 1254 00:53:29,680 --> 00:53:32,840 Speaker 1: Soon that Basil Hfez fight. That guy is a fucking hammer. 1255 00:53:32,960 --> 00:53:34,840 Speaker 2: But what don't you know a lot about this Eileen 1256 00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:38,319 Speaker 2: Perez Joscelyn Edwards fight, not just with the potential for 1257 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,160 Speaker 2: twerking post fight, but don't these two like blood hate 1258 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:42,319 Speaker 2: each other from an. 1259 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:45,759 Speaker 1: Ensure Well, Edwards had a fight with Eileen and her 1260 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,719 Speaker 1: coach and she got choked out. Yeah, and so this 1261 00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,480 Speaker 1: is this is like a UFC looked at like real 1262 00:53:51,560 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 1: human trauma was like, we got to make a fight 1263 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:54,120 Speaker 1: around that. I love. 1264 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,360 Speaker 2: Usually the fight that they put in as the second 1265 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 2: fight in the card is usually a women's matchup that 1266 00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,440 Speaker 2: gets me up in the morning, and not for the 1267 00:54:00,480 --> 00:54:02,400 Speaker 2: reasons you think. Look, there's juicy storylining. 1268 00:54:02,520 --> 00:54:04,680 Speaker 1: Jake Matthews, who hates it when MMA media tries to 1269 00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:07,400 Speaker 1: get fight or pay improved, is back against Phil row. 1270 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,719 Speaker 2: He should Sam Lvy. Actually, Zer doesn't get paid to 1271 00:54:10,800 --> 00:54:11,160 Speaker 2: be great. 1272 00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:16,600 Speaker 1: All right, Hey, who took on? He's taking on Phil 1273 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:20,919 Speaker 1: Row who took who had a karate combat grappling match 1274 00:54:20,920 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 1: against our next game. 1275 00:54:21,760 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 2: We got choked out against the side the angled sidew. 1276 00:54:24,880 --> 00:54:27,480 Speaker 1: Which I found out, having prepped for this interview, that 1277 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:30,760 Speaker 1: he was encouraged to do that by the Karate combat promoter, 1278 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,120 Speaker 1: like get a submission off of the side of the. 1279 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:34,160 Speaker 2: Oh, it wasn't rigged. 1280 00:54:34,160 --> 00:54:35,799 Speaker 1: It was like if you not rigged, but like, yeah, 1281 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 1: I can get the chance, Like see if you can 1282 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:37,879 Speaker 1: see if you can do that, dude. 1283 00:54:37,880 --> 00:54:40,960 Speaker 2: People are anxious to see us interview. Craig anxious. 1284 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 1: All right, so we still have to do some UFC news. 1285 00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:45,239 Speaker 1: We can catch it on the back, I understand, and 1286 00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:47,480 Speaker 1: we also have to enter. We have to set up 1287 00:54:47,520 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 1: the Wilder and Big Bang Jang fight. Yes, but I 1288 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:52,960 Speaker 1: think he's here, so we could probably get this going 1289 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,839 Speaker 1: if we're ready. Oh, one second, we'll get him going. 1290 00:54:55,960 --> 00:54:58,799 Speaker 1: But let's set this up. Craig Jones, famous grappler, one 1291 00:54:58,800 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 1: of the most famous grapplers in ju jitsu in the world. 1292 00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:04,600 Speaker 2: It's it's fair to say, arguably the best grappler in. 1293 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:06,080 Speaker 1: The world or no, No, I don't think it's fair 1294 00:55:06,080 --> 00:55:07,359 Speaker 1: to say that he's sort of mean. The B team 1295 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:09,040 Speaker 1: has sort of called that for a reason. 1296 00:55:09,320 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 2: He's he's a he's a major part of the grappling 1297 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,400 Speaker 2: scene as an ambassador now promoter, and also. 1298 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,920 Speaker 1: Something of an innovator too, something of an innovator as well, 1299 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:22,399 Speaker 1: innovator of innovator, I should say innervador innervator.

Let's set this up, Craig. 1353 00:57:57,920 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 1: There's a lot to get to. Well, let's start with 1354 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 1: the biggest news item if we can. I was hoping 1355 00:58:00,640 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 1: you were gonna bring a million dollars. I was gonna 1356 00:58:02,200 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 1: fucking put a cooker in your face and take it. 1357 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,240 Speaker 2: But that aside, that's DC talk. 1358 00:58:06,320 --> 00:58:10,080 Speaker 1: That's DC talk. The Craig Jones Invitational. I've messaged You've 1359 00:58:10,120 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 1: been like, dude, is this fucking real? He's like, it's real. Okay, 1360 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,360 Speaker 1: this is now the eighty seventh podcast you've done this week, 1361 00:58:15,400 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 1: so I know it's real. 1362 00:58:16,800 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 3: Hopefully. 1363 00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:23,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. The whole aim of it is what is to 1364 00:58:23,320 --> 00:58:26,080 Speaker 1: get more pay out of ADCC, because it can't be 1365 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:30,880 Speaker 1: to make a profitable event. It's not possible to do that. 1366 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:32,840 Speaker 2: This is the equivalent of putting on an MMA event 1367 00:58:32,920 --> 00:58:35,360 Speaker 2: in Vegas against the UFC on the same night as 1368 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:35,680 Speaker 2: the paper. 1369 00:58:38,040 --> 00:58:41,640 Speaker 3: I mean, have you seen the cub Your Enthusiasm episode 1370 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 3: about the petty Store. 1371 00:58:43,240 --> 00:58:43,439 Speaker 1: No? 1372 00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:45,640 Speaker 3: I have not watch that. That'll give you a bit 1373 00:58:45,640 --> 00:58:48,240 Speaker 3: of insight inside. But no, I mean, I think it's 1374 00:58:48,280 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 3: just to go to the sport grappling. You know, we're 1375 00:58:50,440 --> 00:58:52,760 Speaker 3: taking all the tickets sales giving it to charity, but 1376 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 3: we're trying to do something good here, put a free 1377 00:58:54,680 --> 00:58:57,960 Speaker 3: on YouTube. I think grappling's hard enough to watch for free, 1378 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:00,480 Speaker 3: let alone behind the paywell so go to at least 1379 00:59:00,480 --> 00:59:01,800 Speaker 3: here we have that pay well to get some eyes 1380 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:01,960 Speaker 3: on this. 1381 00:59:01,960 --> 00:59:04,960 Speaker 2: We at least high Rollers instituted a reason to get involved. 1382 00:59:04,960 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 3: That's true. Yeah, I mean we're not giving away a 1383 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:08,840 Speaker 3: pound of weigh. We're giving away a pound of noseb. 1384 00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:11,640 Speaker 1: Did you ever ever go into the high Rollers place 1385 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 1: in Vegas?

And those 1465 01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:38,040 Speaker 3: guys said to me, fuck off, I'll talk to you 1466 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:38,520 Speaker 3: next week. 1467 01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:40,040 Speaker 1: World's just win. 1468 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:41,920 Speaker 3: I think it's this weekend. Yeah. 1469 01:02:42,040 --> 01:02:43,440 Speaker 1: Where is that? 1470 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 3: That is in California at the Pyramid. I don't know something. 1471 01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:51,760 Speaker 1: It's so weird. Fifteen years ago, Worlds was where all 1472 01:02:51,760 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 1: the eight grapplers went. I guess they still do to 1473 01:02:53,840 --> 01:02:56,840 Speaker 1: an extent. So it was the most important. ADCC was important, 1474 01:02:56,840 --> 01:02:57,080 Speaker 1: but it. 1475 01:02:57,040 --> 01:02:59,680 Speaker 3: Was still like that was important again. I like how 1476 01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:03,040 Speaker 3: you said ADCC was important. I'm taking that. 1477 01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:05,560 Speaker 1: Well okay, But like I mean, so here's the thing. 1478 01:03:05,600 --> 01:03:07,760 Speaker 1: You're like, Oh, I don't want to get sideways with ADCC. 1479 01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:10,120 Speaker 1: How do you not get sideways? Because if you get 1480 01:03:10,160 --> 01:03:12,800 Speaker 1: sixteen in each division, that means you're going to drain 1481 01:03:12,920 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 1: from ADCC, which means that the value of that title 1482 01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:17,960 Speaker 1: this year is not insignificant, but it's certainly not going 1483 01:03:18,000 --> 01:03:20,560 Speaker 1: to be what it once was. I don't see how 1484 01:03:20,600 --> 01:03:21,680 Speaker 1: they take kindly to that. 1485 01:03:22,360 --> 01:03:23,840 Speaker 3: I mean, I really do a lot of things that 1486 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:25,880 Speaker 3: have found a lot of people. But it's basically I'm 1487 01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:28,680 Speaker 3: giving the athletes a choice, giving them a choice, giving 1488 01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 3: them another platform. You know, they're free to make that decision. 1489 01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:35,600 Speaker 3: Other events out there sometimes forget to get guys on contracts. 1490 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:37,400 Speaker 3: So it left a bit of a void in the 1491 01:03:37,440 --> 01:03:40,360 Speaker 3: market that I could do something like this because I 1492 01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 3: would think I would imagine, no matter what industry it is, 1493 01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:46,680 Speaker 3: if you were putting on an event and investing potentially 1494 01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:50,360 Speaker 3: millions of dollars in it, the stars of that show 1495 01:03:50,600 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 3: or should probably come into a contract. 1496 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:56,439 Speaker 1: That's just me and the investor is who. 1497 01:03:57,160 --> 01:03:59,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, if you really want to know, I've 1498 01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:02,520 Speaker 3: got my fingers in a lot of things. So one 1499 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:05,960 Speaker 3: of the things I've been developing engineering, if you will, 1500 01:04:06,480 --> 01:04:10,280 Speaker 3: is reinventing sunglasses. I want you to see if you 1501 01:04:10,280 --> 01:04:12,600 Speaker 3: guys can identify the special feature built into this. 1502 01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 2: You think it's cocaine. 1503 01:04:15,000 --> 01:04:16,040 Speaker 1: Is this like an X ray thing? 1504 01:04:16,200 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 5: No? 1505 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:18,360 Speaker 3: No, no, it's not the lenses.

Just from a calendar perspective. 1631 01:09:03,880 --> 01:09:05,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, from a calendar probably, I mean usually do like 1632 01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:08,280 Speaker 3: a two week window, four week window before, but realistically 1633 01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:10,840 Speaker 3: for the big events, no athletes going to try and 1634 01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:13,720 Speaker 3: compete close Like, no one would compete two weeks before 1635 01:09:13,720 --> 01:09:17,840 Speaker 3: AIDYCC historically because they might risk injury for ADYCC. 1636 01:09:18,680 --> 01:09:20,479 Speaker 1: Have the guys from Dana Her message you about this 1637 01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:20,840 Speaker 1: at all? 1638 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:23,479 Speaker 3: I mean we're not on talking terms, you know, like yeah, 1639 01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:24,160 Speaker 3: but you guys. 1640 01:09:23,960 --> 01:09:26,360 Speaker 1: Are always talking about each other on social media. That's 1641 01:09:26,360 --> 01:09:28,000 Speaker 1: actually not quite true, right. 1642 01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:30,880 Speaker 3: Well, unfortunately it's one way traffic. They stopped talking about me. 1643 01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:33,280 Speaker 3: Well they did, but I can't help myself. I can 1644 01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:34,160 Speaker 3: not help myself. 1645 01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:36,759 Speaker 1: But so none of them, like not even the satellite 1646 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:39,080 Speaker 1: people have commented about any of this. 1647 01:09:39,680 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 3: No, and that's probably concerning, you know, like plotting something. 1648 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 3: You know, they should turn something my way. I mean, 1649 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:49,240 Speaker 3: obviously Gordon's busy. It's hard regrigitating Fox News articles every 1650 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:53,040 Speaker 3: three minutes. You know, that's not easy. That takes time. 1651 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:53,800 Speaker 3: Effident thought. 1652 01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:57,320 Speaker 2: That man battled serious health scares.

I think he's doing Superfi 1657 01:10:07,439 --> 01:10:10,080 Speaker 3: and something else allegedly. I mean, obviously I'm out of 1658 01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,000 Speaker 3: a lave. Yeah, I don't ask me my opinion. 1659 01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:14,679 Speaker 1: Clearly, if Moe Jasum, who is the guy who basically 1660 01:10:14,760 --> 01:10:16,960 Speaker 1: is behind ADYCC, if he hit you up for a meeting, 1661 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:17,639 Speaker 1: would you take it? 1662 01:10:18,320 --> 01:10:19,680 Speaker 3: I would want to do it in public. You know. 1663 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:22,280 Speaker 3: He keeps fading like, hey, let's make let's talk privately. 1664 01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:24,960 Speaker 3: I'm like, why, Obviously this is an issue for the 1665 01:10:24,960 --> 01:10:25,879 Speaker 3: fans and the athletes. 1666 01:10:25,920 --> 01:10:28,320 Speaker 2: Look, we care in here. If you can get Mo 1667 01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 2: down here. 1668 01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:31,360 Speaker 1: I messaged him today, all right, Yeah, we'll see how 1669 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:32,120 Speaker 1: that goes. I don't know. 1670 01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,439 Speaker 3: Messing for a statement. Now he wants to do it privately. 1671 01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:37,200 Speaker 3: I'm like, I've got nothing if I can talk about privately, 1672 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:38,960 Speaker 3: let's just eric to the fans. 1673 01:10:39,080 --> 01:10:41,960 Speaker 1: Is this like a On the one hand, the message 1674 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 1: of c CJI is like, let's uplift, let's promote the sport, 1675 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:47,920 Speaker 1: let's get some money. And I think everyone in that sense, 1676 01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:52,760 Speaker 1: especially because it's just disrupting the order, is really very intrigued. 1677 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:56,080 Speaker 1: But at the same time, I guess I'm just sort 1678 01:10:56,080 --> 01:10:59,839 Speaker 1: of wondering. I don't know how to word this exactly. 1679 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,799 Speaker 1: I'm kind of trying to figure out. Are you trying 1680 01:11:02,840 --> 01:11:05,800 Speaker 1: to get the power bakers on your side? Are you 1681 01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:08,280 Speaker 1: trying to get them to bend to a greater will 1682 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:09,400 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? 1683 01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:09,479 Speaker 5: Like? 1684 01:11:09,520 --> 01:11:11,560 Speaker 1: Are you does that make sense? Like you're trying to 1685 01:11:11,600 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 1: get them to because ultimately what you want is ADCC 1686 01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:16,360 Speaker 1: to raise the amount of. 1687 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 3: That's all I wanted from day one when I started 1688 01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,679 Speaker 3: complaining to athlete bab That's all I wanted. There's some 1689 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:23,160 Speaker 3: better treatment for the athletes. 1690 01:11:23,240 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 1: How do you feel like jiu jitsu athletes are in 1691 01:11:25,200 --> 01:11:29,599 Speaker 1: terms of fighting or advocating or acting in a way 1692 01:11:30,120 --> 01:11:32,840 Speaker 1: where they can improve their own pay? Obviously, you're leading 1693 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:36,320 Speaker 1: by example so present company notwithstanding, do you feel like 1694 01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:38,679 Speaker 1: jiu jitsu athletes care about these things? 1695 01:11:38,760 --> 01:11:40,640 Speaker 3: And they can, but they have no leverage, you know 1696 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:42,800 Speaker 3: what I mean? They should have never given me any 1697 01:11:42,840 --> 01:11:45,479 Speaker 3: power at Oh, it's like I'm going to take that 1698 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:47,360 Speaker 3: rum with it and try to make this woil better 1699 01:11:47,400 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 3: for everyone else. But if you're like an undercat guy, 1700 01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:51,040 Speaker 3: if you're not a draw, if you don't have a following, 1701 01:11:51,640 --> 01:11:54,200 Speaker 3: what are you gonna do criticize power structures, You're just 1702 01:11:54,280 --> 01:11:57,800 Speaker 3: gonna get pushed out. That's like only people that talking 1703 01:11:57,840 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 3: to this. 1704 01:11:58,160 --> 01:11:59,840 Speaker 2: So it was your goal that a year from now, 1705 01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:03,799 Speaker 2: the same weekend that you're targeting, that you're back competing 1706 01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 2: head to head with ADCC, or that you won the 1707 01:12:06,400 --> 01:12:09,120 Speaker 2: battle you're trying to fight this year and you're competing 1708 01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:11,759 Speaker 2: at ADCC. But for more for bigger persons. 1709 01:12:11,880 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 3: Well, they do every two years. We want to do 1710 01:12:13,840 --> 01:12:16,160 Speaker 3: it every year, you know, Like we'll see how the 1711 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:18,280 Speaker 3: cookie cumbos whether in two years we end up on 1712 01:12:18,280 --> 01:12:20,360 Speaker 3: the same day. We don't have to, you know, but 1713 01:12:20,439 --> 01:12:20,960 Speaker 3: like we want to do. 1714 01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:22,679 Speaker 2: But you want this to be a thing every year, 1715 01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 2: This will be this will become the elite event. 1716 01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:27,360 Speaker 3: That's the that's the intent is to do it every year. 1717 01:12:27,400 --> 01:12:29,760 Speaker 3: So we go funding for this one. Obviously the fund 1718 01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:32,280 Speaker 3: is happy to continue this going depending on the success 1719 01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:35,639 Speaker 3: of this one. But the goal isn't just to take 1720 01:12:35,680 --> 01:12:38,479 Speaker 3: a massive loss and disrupt the industry like I family 1721 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:41,000 Speaker 3: believe that if you can sell out Team Mobile and 1722 01:12:41,040 --> 01:12:43,840 Speaker 3: get massive streaming rights, you can secure a sponsors. You 1723 01:12:43,880 --> 01:12:46,880 Speaker 3: could do it in a way that's more beneficial to 1724 01:12:46,920 --> 01:12:47,959 Speaker 3: the athletes involved. 1725 01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:49,960 Speaker 1: What does fair page you just do look like. 1726 01:12:50,800 --> 01:12:54,160 Speaker 3: A free meal. It'll get those Yeah. 1727 01:12:54,280 --> 01:12:55,960 Speaker 1: Ten grand is not a lot. 1728 01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:58,519 Speaker 2: So you're so for a layman like me, you're saying 1729 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:01,760 Speaker 2: every two years the super of grappling, the winner gets 1730 01:13:01,760 --> 01:13:02,200 Speaker 2: ten grand. 1731 01:13:02,280 --> 01:13:04,280 Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, people don't know that. 1732 01:13:04,320 --> 01:13:08,800 Speaker 2: Does Dana White run that? Seriously? I was gonna ask 1733 01:13:08,840 --> 01:13:11,519 Speaker 2: if Dana White was the benefact I see the guy supplied. 1734 01:13:11,880 --> 01:13:14,639 Speaker 1: But in fairness though, it wasn't like long ago ADCC 1735 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:16,400 Speaker 1: when they went to China. That's when you had the 1736 01:13:16,439 --> 01:13:20,320 Speaker 1: Gary and then the racing matches, and then they were 1737 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:23,360 Speaker 1: in Finland. I think sometime around that as well. It's 1738 01:13:23,400 --> 01:13:26,040 Speaker 1: only recently where they really begin to bump up the 1739 01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:29,559 Speaker 1: way in which it has looked. So is the argument like, 1740 01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:31,880 Speaker 1: okay before at that time, when they were doing Finland, 1741 01:13:31,880 --> 01:13:33,280 Speaker 1: when they were doing China, which looked like it was 1742 01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,400 Speaker 1: in a high school gymnasium for all intents and purposes, 1743 01:13:35,640 --> 01:13:37,519 Speaker 1: maybe there really wasn't a whole lot of money back then. 1744 01:13:37,520 --> 01:13:40,040 Speaker 1: But now you're saying things have changed, now we're in 1745 01:13:40,080 --> 01:13:40,679 Speaker 1: a different place. 1746 01:13:41,000 --> 01:13:43,400 Speaker 3: Well, sure things have changed. Like my first ADCC was 1747 01:13:43,400 --> 01:13:45,880 Speaker 3: twenty fifteen in a basketball corps. My last one was 1748 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,120 Speaker 3: in a sold out Thomas evanc You know what I mean, 1749 01:13:48,200 --> 01:13:51,679 Speaker 3: So slack that's of a four events and athlete pay 1750 01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:55,679 Speaker 3: compensation hasn't changed. It's like if we're contributing to selling 1751 01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:59,200 Speaker 3: out the arena, Like I get paid more than the 1752 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 3: guy that runs the hotel. 1753 01:14:01,439 --> 01:14:03,280 Speaker 1: The contracts for ADECC are they restrictive? 1754 01:14:03,720 --> 01:14:04,480 Speaker 3: No contracts? 1755 01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:07,559 Speaker 1: So how does it work when you compete ADCC? How 1756 01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:08,679 Speaker 1: do you get an invite? 1757 01:14:08,800 --> 01:14:11,000 Speaker 3: You get an invite?

All right, let's talk about 1851 01:17:50,520 --> 01:17:52,680 Speaker 1: some of the rules. First thing, the fighting surface. You're 1852 01:17:52,680 --> 01:17:55,799 Speaker 1: calling it the alley because it has the angled sides. 1853 01:17:55,960 --> 01:17:58,439 Speaker 1: How big is the flat surface? How much does it cover? Oh? 1854 01:17:58,640 --> 01:18:00,920 Speaker 3: I mean total thirty by four, so it's pretty long. 1855 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:03,760 Speaker 1: Okay, that's pretty big. And then the explain to me 1856 01:18:03,800 --> 01:18:06,679 Speaker 1: how this one is not I realized that the inspiration 1857 01:18:06,760 --> 01:18:08,960 Speaker 1: came from karate combat, but you can't be taking their 1858 01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:11,400 Speaker 1: exact gimmick, right, So how was this one different at all? 1859 01:18:12,000 --> 01:18:15,880 Speaker 3: I mean length, size, shape, as much as we can. 1860 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:19,680 Speaker 3: You know, they obviously inspired us, but we're doing there 1861 01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:21,479 Speaker 3: was ding ding ding did ding ding. 1862 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:25,320 Speaker 1: We're seeing this. Vanilla is explaining how he didn't take from. 1863 01:18:26,960 --> 01:18:28,920 Speaker 3: I haven't seen it now, but I might need his 1864 01:18:28,960 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 3: legal defense pretty close. 1865 01:18:31,200 --> 01:18:35,679 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, all right, So is this is the mats? 1866 01:18:35,720 --> 01:18:36,800 Speaker 1: Are they elevated in any way? 1867 01:18:37,160 --> 01:18:38,559 Speaker 3: No, it's this is what we're working on now. We're 1868 01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:41,439 Speaker 3: meant to drop tickets today. But actually, because if you 1869 01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:43,880 Speaker 3: think about it, like anything with an angled wall, if 1870 01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:47,519 Speaker 3: we put it for ground floor seating, you're looking at 1871 01:18:47,520 --> 01:18:50,400 Speaker 3: the angled wall. That's why people always do elevated stage 1872 01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:52,760 Speaker 3: or they'll do mats just on the ground. It's boy 1873 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:55,559 Speaker 3: easier seating. We have to put the alley, we have 1874 01:18:55,600 --> 01:18:58,400 Speaker 3: to build a stage around it. The ground floor of 1875 01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:01,400 Speaker 3: the Thomas and Max. We could put those extra close seats. 1876 01:19:01,400 --> 01:19:03,400 Speaker 3: They can actually see what's going on. 1877 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:07,479 Speaker 1: You're gonna put celebrities there in jiu jitsu celebrities. 1878 01:19:06,400 --> 01:19:09,360 Speaker 3: Sir, I think. I mean, yeah, if there are. 1879 01:19:10,040 --> 01:19:13,519 Speaker 2: Like the next game, there's Spike Lee, there's Tom Brady 1880 01:19:13,560 --> 01:19:14,320 Speaker 2: goes to power slap. 1881 01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:17,120 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I forgot dude. You got to get 1882 01:19:17,120 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 1: some of the power slap guys. 1883 01:19:18,760 --> 01:19:20,920 Speaker 3: That's true. Maybe me and Gabi will turn into power slap. 1884 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:22,200 Speaker 3: That could be the other time. 1885 01:19:22,479 --> 01:19:24,080 Speaker 1: What are the rules for that one? It's the same 1886 01:19:24,080 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 1: as the rest of the invitational. 1887 01:19:25,920 --> 01:19:28,280 Speaker 3: H it is this? Yeah, it's basically three by five 1888 01:19:28,280 --> 01:19:32,000 Speaker 3: minute rounds. I mean we'll do open scoring score around 1889 01:19:32,000 --> 01:19:34,479 Speaker 3: by rounds. They know where they're at. We're trying to 1890 01:19:34,479 --> 01:19:35,280 Speaker 3: steal MMA fans. 1891 01:19:35,280 --> 01:19:38,040 Speaker 1: It's best, so open scoring and MMA, I hate open 1892 01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:39,479 Speaker 1: scoring and jiu jitsu. I have no problem with it 1893 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:42,479 Speaker 1: all because everything is well. You can do it a 1894 01:19:42,479 --> 01:19:46,360 Speaker 1: points based way that doesn't totally ruin the sport the 1895 01:19:46,400 --> 01:19:48,000 Speaker 1: ten point must system part I gotta tell you I 1896 01:19:48,040 --> 01:19:51,080 Speaker 1: don't like MMA. Fans hate the ten point must system. 1897 01:19:51,120 --> 01:19:52,639 Speaker 1: So it's a little bit unusual for me that you've 1898 01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:54,960 Speaker 1: picked it obviously is an adapted version of it. But 1899 01:19:55,000 --> 01:19:57,800 Speaker 1: you will have judges, correct judges. Yeah, how does that work? 1900 01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:01,120 Speaker 3: We'll have three judges and basically they'll school of dominance 1901 01:20:01,120 --> 01:20:03,000 Speaker 3: of the round, you know what I mean. So say 1902 01:20:03,200 --> 01:20:05,800 Speaker 3: hypothetically it's a four point difference in an Iverage Jeff 1903 01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:07,040 Speaker 3: match or something like that. We can say that a 1904 01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:09,840 Speaker 3: pretty dominant round, like a tight round you must finish 1905 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:11,720 Speaker 3: a guy and dominate him. Could be a ten to 1906 01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:13,680 Speaker 3: seven something close to And. 1907 01:20:13,640 --> 01:20:16,000 Speaker 1: Who's gonna judge, because you would need people that know 1908 01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:17,040 Speaker 1: what the fuck is up to. 1909 01:20:17,000 --> 01:20:18,880 Speaker 3: Do that when negotiating right now, But it is in 1910 01:20:18,960 --> 01:20:24,160 Speaker 3: good hands, I will say that, but probably yeah, judge it. 1911 01:20:24,240 --> 01:20:24,800 Speaker 3: He would be good. 1912 01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:28,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, anybody these famous people or these like you know, 1913 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:30,680 Speaker 1: like a like a Shallon Herbert who's like you know, 1914 01:20:30,800 --> 01:20:32,080 Speaker 1: not well known but well respected. 1915 01:20:32,320 --> 01:20:35,840 Speaker 3: I can't they just yeah, these things are working.

I was gonna bring out instruction 2113 01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:29,640 Speaker 3: in one time called cat trestling moves that work and 2114 01:28:29,680 --> 01:28:31,360 Speaker 3: when people press play nothing, it's. 2115 01:28:31,240 --> 01:28:36,600 Speaker 2: Just it's you urinating, just takaha that now. 2116 01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:39,120 Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know too much about cat tressing. 2117 01:28:39,120 --> 01:28:41,880 Speaker 3: I've trained with cat wrestling guys. I think they just 2118 01:28:42,040 --> 01:28:45,320 Speaker 3: not restrained by the rule systems we work in today. 2119 01:28:45,720 --> 01:28:47,200 Speaker 3: So it's like, I feel like we'd come to the 2120 01:28:47,280 --> 01:28:50,400 Speaker 3: same conclusions if we had a more broader rule set. 2121 01:28:50,600 --> 01:28:54,920 Speaker 1: Right, who has okay aside from yours? Who has the 2122 01:28:54,960 --> 01:28:57,360 Speaker 1: best rule set? In in pro grappling. Is it the 2123 01:28:57,760 --> 01:28:59,720 Speaker 1: fight Pacivitational? People seem to love that. 2124 01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,519 Speaker 3: It's good. I mean for me personally, I would just 2125 01:29:02,600 --> 01:29:03,880 Speaker 3: try to pick a role set I can beat an 2126 01:29:03,880 --> 01:29:06,680 Speaker 3: opponent in exploit that, you know, I just try to 2127 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:09,880 Speaker 3: exploit the role set, So everything strategy based. I'm like, 2128 01:29:10,240 --> 01:29:12,400 Speaker 3: all right, they want me to face this opponent, how 2129 01:29:12,439 --> 01:29:14,040 Speaker 3: can I change the rules to make it easier for me? 2130 01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 3: So I don't even think about there's one best roleset. 2131 01:29:15,920 --> 01:29:18,519 Speaker 3: I just try to exploit the roll set on off 2132 01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:19,160 Speaker 3: the opponents. 2133 01:29:19,200 --> 01:29:20,680 Speaker 1: Let's talk about Emma a little bit because I know 2134 01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:24,320 Speaker 1: you want to get to this the well, what was 2135 01:29:24,400 --> 01:29:26,439 Speaker 1: the game plan if it went to the ground? Obviously 2136 01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:28,960 Speaker 1: there are going to be scenario based, right, but what 2137 01:29:29,120 --> 01:29:31,360 Speaker 1: was the game plan for Ortega to the extent that 2138 01:29:31,479 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 1: you were involved in that one? Because I think you 2139 01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:34,880 Speaker 1: were there for the full camp for that one. 2140 01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:37,719 Speaker 3: That one I trained with him aton on Oldermate Fighter 2141 01:29:37,880 --> 01:29:39,559 Speaker 3: and then we did some videos, but I was only 2142 01:29:39,640 --> 01:29:41,320 Speaker 3: there fight week I think for that was that right? 2143 01:29:41,720 --> 01:29:45,400 Speaker 1: Okay to change videos? Okay, Nevertheless, did you guys discuss that, 2144 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:48,519 Speaker 1: Like what what were you there to do specifically for him? 2145 01:29:48,720 --> 01:29:51,679 Speaker 3: I mean just submission defense because I already knew obviously 2146 01:29:51,680 --> 01:29:53,439 Speaker 3: we're on older my fighter for six weeks. We already 2147 01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:56,240 Speaker 3: knew that that fight was coming, so we were already 2148 01:29:56,320 --> 01:29:58,800 Speaker 3: thinking about what submissions he's good at, how we could 2149 01:29:58,800 --> 01:30:01,599 Speaker 3: defend against him, and basically putting in the prep then 2150 01:30:01,800 --> 01:30:04,200 Speaker 3: and then he would draw them. Threw those style of 2151 01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 3: escapes all the time in the lead up. Did he 2152 01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:10,320 Speaker 3: did he drill mounted villotine, We did the kipping escape, 2153 01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:11,720 Speaker 3: and he kind of used that to get out of 2154 01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:13,760 Speaker 3: the gilloteam but still I don't know how he got 2155 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:16,439 Speaker 3: out of it. For the public at large, I sold 2156 01:30:16,479 --> 01:30:18,120 Speaker 3: an instruction on how he got out of it, you know, 2157 01:30:18,640 --> 01:30:20,240 Speaker 3: but that's ancient history now, you know. 2158 01:30:21,040 --> 01:30:24,280 Speaker 1: Uh, Okay, the first Islam fight, what were what was 2159 01:30:24,320 --> 01:30:25,040 Speaker 1: the game plan for you? 2160 01:30:25,680 --> 01:30:27,519 Speaker 3: I mean just getting out of the leg ride position. 2161 01:30:27,560 --> 01:30:30,559 Speaker 3: I mean really worst case scenarios. We have Frank Hickman 2162 01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:32,200 Speaker 3: there for the wrestling as well. Some of this is 2163 01:30:32,280 --> 01:30:35,559 Speaker 3: going to be definitely wrestling, but I mean just really 2164 01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:38,800 Speaker 3: getting out of those bad impositions. I basically tried to 2165 01:30:38,840 --> 01:30:41,080 Speaker 3: replicate what he did, and I brought that out in 2166 01:30:41,120 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 3: an instruction of Islam. Islam and then by trying to 2167 01:30:44,280 --> 01:30:46,880 Speaker 3: work out what he does helps you prepare how to 2168 01:30:46,960 --> 01:30:47,479 Speaker 3: defend agation. 2169 01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:50,280 Speaker 1: Okay, so then what were you trying to solve for 2170 01:30:50,479 --> 01:30:53,240 Speaker 1: that Islam does really well? Like, seriously, get me flex 2171 01:30:53,280 --> 01:30:57,320 Speaker 1: some knowledge here? What makes Islam proprietary knowledge? Yeah? What 2172 01:30:57,479 --> 01:31:00,599 Speaker 1: makes Islam such a great and dominant em groppler? 2173 01:31:01,160 --> 01:31:03,760 Speaker 3: I mean the leg rides. The leg ride's amazing, Like 2174 01:31:03,840 --> 01:31:05,600 Speaker 3: he puts himself in positions where you can't put the 2175 01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:08,080 Speaker 3: base of your feet on the ground. If you can't 2176 01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:09,519 Speaker 3: put the basic feet on your ground, you can't hip 2177 01:31:09,560 --> 01:31:12,759 Speaker 3: a scape, you can't do those traditional jiu jitsu style movements. 2178 01:31:13,640 --> 01:31:15,720 Speaker 3: What we were working on for Volks is just never 2179 01:31:15,800 --> 01:31:17,599 Speaker 3: letting him get to a position where he was flat 2180 01:31:18,560 --> 01:31:21,000 Speaker 3: and he would bounce back up and land on an elbow, 2181 01:31:21,080 --> 01:31:23,280 Speaker 3: and then we had a strategy to deal with the 2182 01:31:23,360 --> 01:31:25,439 Speaker 3: rist ride, like he would turtle out of the rist ride. 2183 01:31:25,920 --> 01:31:29,240 Speaker 3: He was always preventing Islam locking the hands or framing 2184 01:31:29,240 --> 01:31:30,840 Speaker 3: an elbow in such a way that would be very 2185 01:31:30,920 --> 01:31:33,880 Speaker 3: fatiguing for Islam to lock to keep those hands locked. 2186 01:31:34,400 --> 01:31:36,919 Speaker 3: So all those types of strategies as well as specific 2187 01:31:37,000 --> 01:31:38,320 Speaker 3: submission defense. 2188 01:31:39,160 --> 01:31:41,960 Speaker 1: The head in the cage to prevent the back tack right, Yes. 2189 01:31:41,920 --> 01:31:44,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean Islam did have one crafty counter to 2190 01:31:44,240 --> 01:31:46,599 Speaker 3: that where he shifted weights side to side, but yeah, 2191 01:31:46,760 --> 01:31:48,519 Speaker 3: he was it was good. 2192 01:31:48,600 --> 01:31:52,680 Speaker 2: So you're an opportunistic a guy, an entrepreneur guy. Hilarious too, 2193 01:31:52,760 --> 01:31:55,719 Speaker 2: But you did big shit there with the best fighter 2194 01:31:55,760 --> 01:31:58,360 Speaker 2: in the world at the time. Does the phone start ringing? 2195 01:31:58,439 --> 01:32:00,840 Speaker 2: Are you then going, Okay, how do I take this 2196 01:32:01,000 --> 01:32:04,320 Speaker 2: career turn as the featured go to hot coach of 2197 01:32:04,360 --> 01:32:05,320 Speaker 2: the moment in the UFC. 2198 01:32:05,760 --> 01:32:07,759 Speaker 3: I'm just sorry, brother, I need to do title fights, 2199 01:32:07,840 --> 01:32:07,960 Speaker 3: you know. 2200 01:32:09,120 --> 01:32:10,400 Speaker 4: Is is that what you said? Well? 2201 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:12,080 Speaker 3: No, I mean that's the only thing I've done because 2202 01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:14,679 Speaker 3: I was the last addition to the basically the team 2203 01:32:14,880 --> 01:32:17,160 Speaker 3: for the Corner and that was basically specifically for the 2204 01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:18,720 Speaker 3: ortago On because that was the first fight I was 2205 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:22,080 Speaker 3: in the corner. So it's like his true corner is 2206 01:32:22,120 --> 01:32:25,439 Speaker 3: probably Eugene Joe Lopez Frank Kickman. I was added on 2207 01:32:25,960 --> 01:32:27,960 Speaker 3: for that title fight. So like, I'm probably the most 2208 01:32:27,960 --> 01:32:30,759 Speaker 3: disposable I think a grappling coach, I can probably provide 2209 01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:34,880 Speaker 3: help for certain fights, you know, like I worked a 2210 01:32:34,920 --> 01:32:37,080 Speaker 3: little bit with Jack Della for Gilbert Burns. I can 2211 01:32:37,160 --> 01:32:40,280 Speaker 3: take credit for what he did. But we really did 2212 01:32:40,320 --> 01:32:41,600 Speaker 3: a little bit. You know, I can help people a 2213 01:32:41,680 --> 01:32:44,639 Speaker 3: little bit, but for specific I'm more for specific fights. 2214 01:32:44,640 --> 01:32:47,439 Speaker 3: You don't like, I'm fucking holding the bucket for Max Holloway, 2215 01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:50,479 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. Like, I'm not needed for 2216 01:32:50,520 --> 01:32:52,160 Speaker 3: every fight, but they give it. They give it to 2217 01:32:52,200 --> 01:32:52,599 Speaker 3: me anyway. 2218 01:32:52,880 --> 01:32:54,320 Speaker 2: But is this the direction you want to go? I 2219 01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:57,679 Speaker 2: mean that does that sell what you're selling the Craig 2220 01:32:57,760 --> 01:32:58,920 Speaker 2: Johnes brand even better? 2221 01:32:59,439 --> 01:33:01,559 Speaker 3: I think so, as long as, like I mean, if 2222 01:33:01,600 --> 01:33:03,680 Speaker 3: it's a person I like, because I don't do the 2223 01:33:03,760 --> 01:33:06,759 Speaker 3: coaching for the money. Obviously it's good for the brands, 2224 01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:09,760 Speaker 3: like it's good to grow everything you're doing, But I 2225 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:12,000 Speaker 3: do it just because I'm an MMA fan and or 2226 01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:16,240 Speaker 3: I'm good friends the guy I coach, because it's it's 2227 01:33:16,280 --> 01:33:18,720 Speaker 3: actually pretty horrible to coach your friends at MMA, because 2228 01:33:18,760 --> 01:33:22,040 Speaker 3: it's like it can get really badly and you feel 2229 01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:25,160 Speaker 3: a great deal of pressure making sure you don't tell 2230 01:33:25,200 --> 01:33:26,000 Speaker 3: him to do the wrong thing. 2231 01:33:26,200 --> 01:33:28,400 Speaker 1: Was that was that locker room after the Tuporia fight. 2232 01:33:29,120 --> 01:33:30,599 Speaker 1: I can't imagine that was too much fun. 2233 01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:33,719 Speaker 3: I mean after the Islam one, the energy was lower. 2234 01:33:33,920 --> 01:33:36,200 Speaker 3: It's a little more positive after the Teporio one. But yeah, 2235 01:33:36,240 --> 01:33:38,320 Speaker 3: I mean it's like it could be on top of 2236 01:33:38,360 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 3: the world or it's absolutely horrible. 2237 01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:42,920 Speaker 2: All right, So you people probably ask you this, you 2238 01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:46,639 Speaker 2: probably think about it. The ultimate entrepreneurial thing is let's 2239 01:33:46,640 --> 01:33:48,800 Speaker 2: get Craig Jones famous enough where he stumbles into a 2240 01:33:48,840 --> 01:33:51,400 Speaker 2: big MMA fight he shouldn't be in. Do you ever 2241 01:33:51,479 --> 01:33:53,800 Speaker 2: think about that? Like, what is what would stop you 2242 01:33:53,920 --> 01:33:57,720 Speaker 2: with your grappling background from making that transition out? Maybe 2243 01:33:57,760 --> 01:33:59,840 Speaker 2: a side of drugs and long term contracts, but like 2244 01:34:00,320 --> 01:34:02,760 Speaker 2: if tomorrow you signed up for a training camp for 2245 01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:04,519 Speaker 2: an m m A fight against an elite, I guess 2246 01:34:04,760 --> 01:34:05,679 Speaker 2: we built. 2247 01:34:05,479 --> 01:34:07,680 Speaker 3: We've built it into the CGI contract. You know, i'd 2248 01:34:07,720 --> 01:34:10,800 Speaker 3: obviously when I destroy Gabby and grappling, I've presented the 2249 01:34:10,880 --> 01:34:12,360 Speaker 3: option that we could have a proper five. 2250 01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:15,639 Speaker 2: Okay, now let's getting deep intergender. Now that's crossing some lines. 2251 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:19,160 Speaker 1: It's like this is this a are you a promoters? 2252 01:34:19,160 --> 01:34:20,439 Speaker 1: This a heye crime? What's happening? 2253 01:34:20,680 --> 01:34:22,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's see how the first one guys like, could 2254 01:34:22,400 --> 01:34:24,040 Speaker 2: you Okay, let's say you go in there against tom 2255 01:34:24,080 --> 01:34:25,400 Speaker 2: asp butin all tomorrow. 2256 01:34:25,200 --> 01:34:28,200 Speaker 3: In an mm A fight, you got to pick the biggest. 2257 01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:29,880 Speaker 2: What what would you fight. 2258 01:34:32,040 --> 01:34:32,920 Speaker 1: You can make one any five? 2259 01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:34,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, well I could probably one eighty five. 2260 01:34:34,800 --> 01:34:37,080 Speaker 2: Okay, So let's say you're going there against a super 2261 01:34:37,120 --> 01:34:40,920 Speaker 2: elite guy. Could you not just survive with your jiu jitsu, 2262 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:43,640 Speaker 2: but probably definitely plan a path to victory in your 2263 01:34:43,680 --> 01:34:45,120 Speaker 2: eyes if you wanted to. 2264 01:34:45,439 --> 01:34:46,760 Speaker 3: I mean it would be it would be tough for 2265 01:34:46,840 --> 01:34:48,080 Speaker 3: me to get it done in mm A because I 2266 01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:50,680 Speaker 3: don't have a wrestling background and I'm fully reliant on 2267 01:34:50,800 --> 01:34:53,160 Speaker 3: getting the guy to the ground. Sure, that's very tough, 2268 01:34:53,320 --> 01:34:55,120 Speaker 3: but if the price was right, I'd go in there 2269 01:34:55,160 --> 01:34:56,519 Speaker 3: and get knocked out for good show money. 2270 01:34:56,600 --> 01:34:59,280 Speaker 2: You know.

I used to end down to Tijuana and head 2450 01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:47,360 Speaker 3: to the pharmacy there by It over the can of 2451 01:41:47,400 --> 01:41:48,000 Speaker 3: go in the bathroom. 2452 01:41:48,040 --> 01:41:49,120 Speaker 1: You just drop across the border. 2453 01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:51,800 Speaker 2: You never bought standards all on the street corner. I've 2454 01:41:51,840 --> 01:41:54,840 Speaker 2: done whippets in an Arby's parking lot. That's a true. 2455 01:41:55,960 --> 01:41:58,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, there's some fantastic fucking Chinese restaurants in Tijuana. I'll 2456 01:41:58,920 --> 01:41:59,439 Speaker 3: say that much. 2457 01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:03,559 Speaker 1: Okay, how long were you taking like the I don't 2458 01:42:03,600 --> 01:42:05,639 Speaker 1: know tea want to drug store stuff? 2459 01:42:06,200 --> 01:42:09,200 Speaker 3: Oh a, while I was ordering online for a long time. 2460 01:42:09,320 --> 01:42:11,360 Speaker 3: Just get it delivered here. But then again, like I 2461 01:42:11,360 --> 01:42:15,160 Speaker 3: would definitely recommend to like the pharmaceutical grade stuff. So 2462 01:42:15,240 --> 01:42:18,600 Speaker 3: whatever I was taken, it was just probably weaker. So 2463 01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:20,680 Speaker 3: as soon as I started with some proper evertime and 2464 01:42:20,720 --> 01:42:21,960 Speaker 3: pharmaceutical stuff, it was just. 2465 01:42:22,000 --> 01:42:24,360 Speaker 1: All right, much much better. Biggest upsides of the stack 2466 01:42:24,400 --> 01:42:25,120 Speaker 1: you're on is what. 2467 01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:30,320 Speaker 3: Just feeling great recovery. I mean, like if your diet, 2468 01:42:30,479 --> 01:42:34,479 Speaker 3: your sleep, if you're stressed, that can affect your testosterone levels. 2469 01:42:34,520 --> 01:42:36,600 Speaker 3: That can fluctuate. So obviously if you just have a 2470 01:42:36,720 --> 01:42:40,000 Speaker 3: base level built in, you have less fluctuations. I don't 2471 01:42:40,560 --> 01:42:43,640 Speaker 3: personally think it's that healthy to blasting crews. Obviously it's 2472 01:42:43,640 --> 01:42:46,200 Speaker 3: going to be consequences of blasting, but going on cycle 2473 01:42:46,280 --> 01:42:49,280 Speaker 3: and coming off, I think personally it's an old school 2474 01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:52,400 Speaker 3: way of thinking because your body doesn't deal well with fluctuations. 2475 01:42:52,840 --> 01:42:55,360 Speaker 3: So I think just a stock standard by a dose. 2476 01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:57,800 Speaker 2: But what's the long term problem with being on a 2477 01:42:57,920 --> 01:43:00,240 Speaker 2: straight cruise. Here, your heart just falling off to. 2478 01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:03,200 Speaker 3: Talk to me in twenty years, Nah, No, I mean 2479 01:43:03,240 --> 01:43:03,960 Speaker 3: it should be good. 2480 01:43:04,000 --> 01:43:06,640 Speaker 2: You know he passed the twenty seven club test.

They don't want to do anything to help themselves, 2618 01:48:23,040 --> 01:48:24,719 Speaker 1: and it's fucking baffling. 2619 01:48:24,960 --> 01:48:27,120 Speaker 3: Why well, I mean, like we were in a blessed 2620 01:48:27,120 --> 01:48:28,880 Speaker 3: position that we can do this because none of us 2621 01:48:28,880 --> 01:48:31,160 Speaker 3: were looked into contracts. That helps a lot. 2622 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:33,920 Speaker 1: Well, that's that's not entirely true. We got some contracts 2623 01:48:33,960 --> 01:48:34,479 Speaker 1: that we're working on. 2624 01:48:34,640 --> 01:48:37,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, that that kind of helped, you know, I 2625 01:48:37,439 --> 01:48:38,760 Speaker 3: don't I mean, I don't know. You have to be 2626 01:48:39,680 --> 01:48:41,120 Speaker 3: the people at the top. It has to come from 2627 01:48:41,120 --> 01:48:43,320 Speaker 3: the top down. It has to be people that are 2628 01:48:43,720 --> 01:48:47,920 Speaker 3: at that peak peak fan peak. Success has to come 2629 01:48:47,960 --> 01:48:50,160 Speaker 3: from them. It can't come from the bottom up. That's 2630 01:48:50,320 --> 01:48:52,479 Speaker 3: very tough to do. If the top are very welcome 2631 01:48:52,920 --> 01:48:53,080 Speaker 3: and the. 2632 01:48:53,120 --> 01:48:54,920 Speaker 1: Only reason why you feel comfortable doing it is not 2633 01:48:55,320 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 1: because of the words. There might be other people in 2634 01:48:57,479 --> 01:48:59,639 Speaker 1: like the top tier of grappling who feel the way 2635 01:48:59,680 --> 01:49:01,800 Speaker 1: you do, but don't feel the way you do about 2636 01:49:02,360 --> 01:49:04,519 Speaker 1: moving the needle on this. But since you don't really 2637 01:49:04,560 --> 01:49:07,479 Speaker 1: actively competing anymore, who gives a fuck? 2638 01:49:07,560 --> 01:49:10,479 Speaker 3: Right? Yeah, I just don't care at this point. If 2639 01:49:10,720 --> 01:49:12,479 Speaker 3: promotion is going to be difficult to work with, I 2640 01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:14,519 Speaker 3: just won't work with them. Like I don't feel like 2641 01:49:14,560 --> 01:49:16,960 Speaker 3: I need anyone in the sports. So that puts me 2642 01:49:16,960 --> 01:49:19,599 Speaker 3: in a unique position that I can basically tell everyone 2643 01:49:19,600 --> 01:49:21,080 Speaker 3: to get fucked and just give it a crack. 2644 01:49:21,240 --> 01:49:23,400 Speaker 1: Have you created like a new economy, not just you, 2645 01:49:23,560 --> 01:49:26,200 Speaker 1: but the things you do where karate combat is putting 2646 01:49:26,200 --> 01:49:28,200 Speaker 1: the stuff on. I know one has restrictive contracts, but 2647 01:49:28,280 --> 01:49:31,960 Speaker 1: they've been keeping the rule of Toller Brothers reasonably busy anyway, 2648 01:49:32,080 --> 01:49:34,879 Speaker 1: where it's just kind of like super Fight here. Superfight 2649 01:49:35,000 --> 01:49:37,320 Speaker 1: there doesn't have to be a jiujitsu playable so it 2650 01:49:37,320 --> 01:49:38,880 Speaker 1: could be a karate place, it can be any kind 2651 01:49:38,920 --> 01:49:40,479 Speaker 1: of place. Do you feel like that's a lane that 2652 01:49:40,560 --> 01:49:41,839 Speaker 1: you helped develop? 2653 01:49:42,560 --> 01:49:42,840 Speaker 2: I don't. 2654 01:49:42,920 --> 01:49:46,519 Speaker 3: I mean, obviously this Damous Grabson, obviously Gordon Ryan contributed 2655 01:49:46,520 --> 01:49:49,120 Speaker 3: to the superfied for sure economy. But yeah, I mean, 2656 01:49:49,160 --> 01:49:51,120 Speaker 3: if you can mock yourself, I didn't see why an 2657 01:49:51,120 --> 01:49:53,280 Speaker 3: event wouldn't take a chance on you. But I think 2658 01:49:53,320 --> 01:49:56,840 Speaker 3: if you're running these events, you kind of are going 2659 01:49:56,920 --> 01:49:59,400 Speaker 3: to target as grapplers that can marckt themselves or at 2660 01:49:59,479 --> 01:50:01,680 Speaker 3: least help them find a way to market themselves. And 2661 01:50:01,760 --> 01:50:04,360 Speaker 3: that's this event has been really good for the athletes 2662 01:50:04,400 --> 01:50:07,240 Speaker 3: that have jumped on board because of the organic sort 2663 01:50:07,280 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 3: of uh hope like following it has. It's giving them 2664 01:50:10,720 --> 01:50:13,000 Speaker 3: a voice too, because they can now market themselves as 2665 01:50:13,040 --> 01:50:15,240 Speaker 3: standing with us on these issues. 2666 01:50:16,520 --> 01:50:20,719 Speaker 1: The tutorial business, how lucrative is it? What can somebody 2667 01:50:20,800 --> 01:50:22,759 Speaker 1: make doing that? And I realized everyone's going to be different, 2668 01:50:22,960 --> 01:50:25,559 Speaker 1: but that notwithstanding what's possible in that economy. 2669 01:50:25,800 --> 01:50:28,240 Speaker 3: Oh, I mean that's really good. I mean, obviously you've 2670 01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:31,760 Speaker 3: got you've got to split some of those profits with 2671 01:50:31,920 --> 01:50:34,720 Speaker 3: the people at bj fanatics.

Do you want to make Tony versus Nick 3088 02:06:55,960 --> 02:06:58,200 Speaker 2: do it? What the hell are we doing on Nick 3089 02:06:58,320 --> 02:07:00,600 Speaker 2: versus Luke? Look, A lot of people thought at first 3090 02:07:00,640 --> 02:07:03,720 Speaker 2: this must have been, you know, ordered by Saudi Arabia government. 3091 02:07:03,720 --> 02:07:05,200 Speaker 2: Then we're like, wait, it's in Nabu Dabi. It's not 3092 02:07:05,240 --> 02:07:06,720 Speaker 2: connected to that, so it must have. 3093 02:07:06,720 --> 02:07:07,160 Speaker 1: Been or no. 3094 02:07:07,280 --> 02:07:10,520 Speaker 2: It just seems, according to to Ariel like who had 3095 02:07:10,560 --> 02:07:13,640 Speaker 2: the intel on how this fight came together, that Nick 3096 02:07:13,720 --> 02:07:15,920 Speaker 2: had wanted to come back at UFC three hundred against 3097 02:07:15,920 --> 02:07:18,640 Speaker 2: Colby Covington and had other things he was talking about, 3098 02:07:18,680 --> 02:07:21,400 Speaker 2: and then they shifted him here. So I get using 3099 02:07:21,480 --> 02:07:23,360 Speaker 2: what's left of his brand of a guy who wants 3100 02:07:23,400 --> 02:07:26,360 Speaker 2: to be there, would either put him in a celebrity fighter, 3101 02:07:26,400 --> 02:07:28,360 Speaker 2: put him in there with another aging slugger that we love, 3102 02:07:28,400 --> 02:07:30,760 Speaker 2: and we go, okay, have your retirement fight together and 3103 02:07:30,800 --> 02:07:32,520 Speaker 2: we're going to cheer you guys on out. Why is 3104 02:07:32,560 --> 02:07:35,960 Speaker 2: it that hard? I know Luke is an aftermarket version 3105 02:07:36,000 --> 02:07:38,000 Speaker 2: of Luk, but what good is going to come from 3106 02:07:38,040 --> 02:07:40,400 Speaker 2: this fight? Like, I just here's what I didn't like 3107 02:07:40,480 --> 02:07:42,440 Speaker 2: Luke because I do want to protect these guys. I 3108 02:07:42,480 --> 02:07:45,080 Speaker 2: don't think you should have been in there against Robbi Lawler, 3109 02:07:45,120 --> 02:07:47,080 Speaker 2: and even though they had a brawl that a lot 3110 02:07:47,080 --> 02:07:49,040 Speaker 2: of people love, DANEA was like, wasn't that awesome? And 3111 02:07:49,160 --> 02:07:51,040 Speaker 2: I did hear fans d I mean be like, no, 3112 02:07:51,200 --> 02:07:53,160 Speaker 2: b C, You're wrong. That was super fun. There was 3113 02:07:53,200 --> 02:07:55,760 Speaker 2: just something about it, maybe because the guy there was 3114 02:07:55,800 --> 02:07:58,000 Speaker 2: constantly telling everybody he didn't want to be there, and 3115 02:07:58,120 --> 02:08:00,600 Speaker 2: it seemed like Nate was only doing it Nick to 3116 02:08:00,760 --> 02:08:04,360 Speaker 2: please managers. You know, I don't know the relationship behind 3117 02:08:04,400 --> 02:08:07,320 Speaker 2: the scenes. It doesn't mean he can't take it serious again, Luke, 3118 02:08:07,400 --> 02:08:10,480 Speaker 2: but the matchmaking here shocks me. Did they see tape 3119 02:08:10,760 --> 02:08:13,920 Speaker 2: that I didn't? Is Nick so dedicated here? I mean 3120 02:08:14,240 --> 02:08:16,680 Speaker 2: the guy literally hasn't want to fight in thirteen years. 3121 02:08:16,720 --> 02:08:19,200 Speaker 2: So as much as I love nostalgia and old guys 3122 02:08:19,240 --> 02:08:22,040 Speaker 2: coming back, I just don't freaking get this. And then 3123 02:08:22,120 --> 02:08:23,840 Speaker 2: it's a five round Cole Maine event. 3124 02:08:24,000 --> 02:08:25,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is not two. 3125 02:08:25,600 --> 02:08:28,200 Speaker 2: Thousand and eight, Nick Diaz. This isn't even twenty fifteen, 3126 02:08:28,280 --> 02:08:29,040 Speaker 2: Nick Diaz. 3127 02:08:28,920 --> 02:08:30,880 Speaker 1: And Luke is only thirty two years of age. But 3128 02:08:30,920 --> 02:08:33,200 Speaker 1: obviously a bit of damage battered opponent I think is 3129 02:08:33,200 --> 02:08:33,920 Speaker 1: a good way to put this. 3130 02:08:34,160 --> 02:08:36,680 Speaker 2: It isn't gained much getting a win here against Nick DYEA. 3131 02:08:36,840 --> 02:08:38,920 Speaker 1: It's a name opponent, certainly, but you're right now, I 3132 02:08:39,000 --> 02:08:40,360 Speaker 1: know what you mean. I fully agree when with The 3133 02:08:40,400 --> 02:08:42,320 Speaker 1: weirdest part about it, of course, is also on this card, 3134 02:08:42,360 --> 02:08:44,720 Speaker 1: it was announced Tony Ferguson is back at one hundred 3135 02:08:44,720 --> 02:08:47,120 Speaker 1: and seventy pounds against Michael Kisa. Now I understand that 3136 02:08:47,240 --> 02:08:49,960 Speaker 1: matchmaking a little bit because you just would imagine that's 3137 02:08:50,000 --> 02:08:53,680 Speaker 1: going to be a grappling bout. Kiesa has proven susceptible 3138 02:08:53,720 --> 02:08:57,160 Speaker 1: over time to the dars, which is something that historically anyway, 3139 02:08:57,240 --> 02:08:58,840 Speaker 1: Tony has been good at. If you look at the 3140 02:08:59,040 --> 02:09:01,400 Speaker 1: ground and pound of a guy I like, just leave 3141 02:09:01,400 --> 02:09:02,680 Speaker 1: it alone. If you look at the ground and pound 3142 02:09:02,680 --> 02:09:04,840 Speaker 1: of a guy like Kisa, he doesn't dish out a 3143 02:09:04,920 --> 02:09:08,400 Speaker 1: lot of physical punishment. It's more position and then submission 3144 02:09:08,480 --> 02:09:11,160 Speaker 1: along the way. So I don't think it's necessarily in 3145 02:09:11,280 --> 02:09:14,360 Speaker 1: that sense, the most dangerous fight. But everyone's asking, if 3146 02:09:14,400 --> 02:09:15,920 Speaker 1: you have a forty one year old Nick Diaz and 3147 02:09:15,960 --> 02:09:18,520 Speaker 1: a forty year old Tony Ferguson on the same card, 3148 02:09:18,560 --> 02:09:20,720 Speaker 1: why aren't you just doing that? My guess is someone 3149 02:09:20,880 --> 02:09:22,080 Speaker 1: one of the two declined it. 3150 02:09:22,200 --> 02:09:23,520 Speaker 2: It had to be there I was one of them 3151 02:09:23,560 --> 02:09:26,280 Speaker 2: not fighting Jim Miller or or Matt Brown for one 3152 02:09:26,360 --> 02:09:28,960 Speaker 2: more Like, it's just like that part doesn't make sense. 3153 02:09:29,600 --> 02:09:31,080 Speaker 2: I don't want to see it. I mean, I'm so 3154 02:09:31,240 --> 02:09:34,200 Speaker 2: I'm so done with this experience now. Like if we 3155 02:09:34,320 --> 02:09:36,720 Speaker 2: had if I had proof that Nick was in a 3156 02:09:36,800 --> 02:09:39,680 Speaker 2: great place and he was fighting Connor McGregor or GSP 3157 02:09:39,840 --> 02:09:41,760 Speaker 2: like it seemed like he wanted per Ario Luke, that 3158 02:09:41,840 --> 02:09:44,520 Speaker 2: he he wanted aggressively that to that be the fight. 3159 02:09:44,600 --> 02:09:47,040 Speaker 2: I go, Okay, I guess, I guess right. I don't 3160 02:09:47,040 --> 02:09:48,200 Speaker 2: get this, so I'm not supporting it. 3161 02:09:48,400 --> 02:09:50,480 Speaker 1: I will say, what about the return of Tony Ferguson. 3162 02:09:52,080 --> 02:09:53,480 Speaker 1: I mean, he's seven at seven in a row. 3163 02:09:53,600 --> 02:09:55,280 Speaker 2: He has had life lately, but that should not be 3164 02:09:55,400 --> 02:09:57,400 Speaker 2: enough to keep somebody. I feel like they still feel 3165 02:09:57,480 --> 02:09:58,600 Speaker 2: bad and feel like they owe him. 3166 02:09:58,680 --> 02:10:01,200 Speaker 1: Dana said when he announced it, it's in all likelihood 3167 02:10:01,280 --> 02:10:04,520 Speaker 1: his last certainly UFC fight. I'm hoping his last overall fight. 3168 02:10:04,560 --> 02:10:06,600 Speaker 1: But b see if they if they let him go, 3169 02:10:06,840 --> 02:10:09,240 Speaker 1: BKFC might come calling. Dude, how does Jake Paul not 3170 02:10:09,400 --> 02:10:10,760 Speaker 1: take that fight? Seriously? 3171 02:10:11,640 --> 02:10:14,760 Speaker 2: Jake Paul is probably the nice difference is monstrous because Jake's. 3172 02:10:14,520 --> 02:10:16,920 Speaker 1: A heavyweight, okay, but they can make that work. And also, 3173 02:10:17,040 --> 02:10:18,800 Speaker 1: I mean they I thought Woodley. Woodley was a big 3174 02:10:18,800 --> 02:10:21,600 Speaker 1: one seven year okay, fair enough, but still also Nick Diaz. 3175 02:10:21,640 --> 02:10:23,600 Speaker 1: If Nick Diaz gets cut, you don't think Jake Paul's 3176 02:10:23,600 --> 02:10:24,640 Speaker 1: looking at a Nick Diaz fight. 3177 02:10:24,800 --> 02:10:26,840 Speaker 2: I just don't get how many people watch that Robbi 3178 02:10:26,880 --> 02:10:29,280 Speaker 2: Lawler rematch and we're like, yeah, Nick Diaz, let's do 3179 02:10:29,320 --> 02:10:31,920 Speaker 2: it again. And then we're also like, all right, luk, 3180 02:10:32,040 --> 02:10:33,840 Speaker 2: I'll do this, Like I don't I don't get that looke. 3181 02:10:33,960 --> 02:10:36,640 Speaker 2: Like I am a connoisseur of some carnival shit, but 3182 02:10:36,840 --> 02:10:39,280 Speaker 2: like this, this is I don't BC. 3183 02:10:40,120 --> 02:10:42,720 Speaker 1: Let's talk about the UFC gloves as well. I mean, 3184 02:10:42,720 --> 02:10:44,680 Speaker 1: you know what. Hold, let's let's actually back up a step. 3185 02:10:45,000 --> 02:10:48,560 Speaker 1: Let's talk about staff. There has been belief that both 3186 02:10:48,760 --> 02:10:52,360 Speaker 1: Islam and Paul Acosta have staff. Show the picture, Okay, 3187 02:10:52,360 --> 02:10:53,680 Speaker 1: here's what I'm gonna say. The one on the left 3188 02:10:53,760 --> 02:10:55,960 Speaker 1: is Islam, the one on the right is paul A Costa. 3189 02:10:56,800 --> 02:10:59,720 Speaker 1: I cannot I'm not a doctor. I cannot affirmative, affirmative, 3190 02:10:59,800 --> 02:11:01,600 Speaker 1: lead the clear anything. I will say this, The one 3191 02:11:01,720 --> 02:11:05,240 Speaker 1: on Islam looks like it is staff that has sense 3192 02:11:05,360 --> 02:11:07,800 Speaker 1: healed for quite some time. I don't think it's fresh 3193 02:11:07,840 --> 02:11:10,040 Speaker 1: staff at all, maybe like a week or two old 3194 02:11:10,120 --> 02:11:12,400 Speaker 1: in terms of being over the worst of it. The 3195 02:11:12,480 --> 02:11:14,600 Speaker 1: one on Paulo Costa's foot. If you actually look look 3196 02:11:14,640 --> 02:11:16,400 Speaker 1: over the rest of the toes, it looks like someone 3197 02:11:16,440 --> 02:11:17,880 Speaker 1: put out a cigarette over the other ones. 3198 02:11:18,040 --> 02:11:19,960 Speaker 2: Those toes are still better than mine. I gotta be honest. 3199 02:11:20,080 --> 02:11:21,480 Speaker 2: That's Matt Burn presentation wise. 3200 02:11:21,600 --> 02:11:22,000 Speaker 1: Let me finish. 3201 02:11:22,040 --> 02:11:23,680 Speaker 2: That's to put it on the on the table. 3202 02:11:23,760 --> 02:11:26,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, please, that's Matt Burn. So I don't know if 3203 02:11:26,680 --> 02:11:28,880 Speaker 1: he has staff. He definitely looks to me a little 3204 02:11:28,920 --> 02:11:31,760 Speaker 1: bit more like Matt Burn along the way either way, 3205 02:11:31,840 --> 02:11:32,720 Speaker 1: be see, I. 3206 02:11:32,720 --> 02:11:35,600 Speaker 2: Mean, presentation wise, he's still yours are really bad. We 3207 02:11:35,720 --> 02:11:38,800 Speaker 2: get you know what. I should it right here, But 3208 02:11:38,920 --> 02:11:40,440 Speaker 2: we should. I'm just gonna give you the side of you. 3209 02:11:40,560 --> 02:11:41,400 Speaker 2: We should save it for. 3210 02:11:41,440 --> 02:11:43,840 Speaker 1: The foot off, foot off, Yes, say it the loser. 3211 02:11:43,920 --> 02:11:46,480 Speaker 2: I can't figure out if the loser or winner should 3212 02:11:46,520 --> 02:11:49,000 Speaker 2: get a what do you call that? I want a 3213 02:11:49,120 --> 02:11:51,440 Speaker 2: petty what not? 3214 02:11:51,560 --> 02:11:53,440 Speaker 1: Pedicure? Not coach and pedicure? 3215 02:11:53,480 --> 02:11:54,840 Speaker 2: Pedicure Is that what it's called? 3216 02:11:54,920 --> 02:11:55,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, manicure and a pedicure. 3217 02:11:56,040 --> 02:11:57,520 Speaker 2: I think the I think both of us should get 3218 02:11:57,520 --> 02:11:59,400 Speaker 2: that if we're willing to embarrass ourselves publicly. 3219 02:11:59,520 --> 02:12:02,760 Speaker 1: My wife has begged me to get one, begged me. 3220 02:12:04,000 --> 02:12:06,360 Speaker 2: But yeah, so what were we talking about again, Luke. 3221 02:12:06,520 --> 02:12:08,440 Speaker 1: Staff, do you feel like this is probably the second 3222 02:12:08,480 --> 02:12:12,160 Speaker 1: opponent that I gotta asking a row that has staff. 3223 02:12:11,920 --> 02:12:13,680 Speaker 2: Well, I gotta ask you honest question in line with that, 3224 02:12:14,760 --> 02:12:17,320 Speaker 2: does Poorier knock out BSD without staph infection? 3225 02:12:18,920 --> 02:12:22,760 Speaker 1: It's still possible because he's reckless, cannot rule it out. 3226 02:12:23,840 --> 02:12:25,680 Speaker 1: I tend to think probably not, And I know everyone's 3227 02:12:25,680 --> 02:12:27,320 Speaker 1: gonna kill me. Oh fuck you picked against the blah 3228 02:12:27,360 --> 02:12:29,520 Speaker 1: blah bluh, Yeah I did. I think BSD is reckless. 3229 02:12:29,600 --> 02:12:32,960 Speaker 2: But let me present a potential scenario for you after 3230 02:12:33,080 --> 02:12:34,920 Speaker 2: I spent the first forty five minutes of the show 3231 02:12:35,000 --> 02:12:37,000 Speaker 2: telling you that, damn, I love Dustin Poier. He's an 3232 02:12:37,000 --> 02:12:39,320 Speaker 2: American hero, but Damn, I can't talk myself into a 3233 02:12:39,440 --> 02:12:41,520 Speaker 2: true angle for him to do what we want him 3234 02:12:41,560 --> 02:12:43,640 Speaker 2: to do, which is activate our heartstrings and pull on 3235 02:12:43,760 --> 02:12:47,600 Speaker 2: it and end his career on top right pinion of him. 3236 02:12:48,400 --> 02:12:54,440 Speaker 2: But Luke Thomas, what if the staff compromises Islam like 3237 02:12:54,520 --> 02:12:57,280 Speaker 2: it actually did be SD? Although Islam answered the question, 3238 02:12:57,320 --> 02:12:58,920 Speaker 2: I thought in a great way when the fan asked 3239 02:12:58,960 --> 02:13:00,520 Speaker 2: him at Press comforts up there is and said, I'm 3240 02:13:00,520 --> 02:13:01,960 Speaker 2: gonna be fine no matter what. Don't worry about it. 3241 02:13:01,960 --> 02:13:02,760 Speaker 2: And he's not an excuse guy. 3242 02:13:02,760 --> 02:13:03,320 Speaker 3: He's not gonna come. 3243 02:13:03,240 --> 02:13:06,040 Speaker 2: Out there and rag about it. But look, are you 3244 02:13:06,120 --> 02:13:10,600 Speaker 2: prepared for this potential other world reality where Dustin Pourier 3245 02:13:10,720 --> 02:13:13,880 Speaker 2: finds a way to focus on that staff infection and 3246 02:13:14,040 --> 02:13:18,600 Speaker 2: stops Islam and wins the title, And then at UFC 3247 02:13:19,280 --> 02:13:23,680 Speaker 2: three three, Connor McGregor knocks out Michael Chandler and then 3248 02:13:23,720 --> 02:13:26,480 Speaker 2: we get Dustin Connor four for the lightweight title. 3249 02:13:27,040 --> 02:13:28,360 Speaker 1: I mean, chriss possible. 3250 02:13:28,480 --> 02:13:31,640 Speaker 2: It's actually big set up, kind of indcly right. 3251 02:13:31,840 --> 02:13:34,240 Speaker 1: It is absolutely one billion percent possible. 3252 02:13:34,280 --> 02:13:36,520 Speaker 2: I don't think it'll change the main event on Saturday, 3253 02:13:36,880 --> 02:13:39,240 Speaker 2: But are you concerned at all? Should we be looking 3254 02:13:39,280 --> 02:13:42,720 Speaker 2: out for any reason that we'll see Islam sluggish or 3255 02:13:42,880 --> 02:13:45,840 Speaker 2: fatigued more because of this, or have a weird thing 3256 02:13:45,920 --> 02:13:48,080 Speaker 2: on his peck like the thing is. 3257 02:13:48,400 --> 02:13:51,360 Speaker 1: We both predicted a third round stoppage. I will say this, 3258 02:13:51,560 --> 02:13:53,360 Speaker 1: if he can't get him out of there in three, 3259 02:13:54,800 --> 02:13:56,520 Speaker 1: then it will be a really kind of interesting question, 3260 02:13:56,600 --> 02:13:59,400 Speaker 1: because what does he have after that championship round? Does 3261 02:13:59,440 --> 02:14:02,240 Speaker 1: he like if this really was staff, you're going to 3262 02:14:02,320 --> 02:14:03,880 Speaker 1: see that at the end of the third and the 3263 02:14:03,920 --> 02:14:05,320 Speaker 1: beginning of the fourth, or if he even goes to 3264 02:14:05,360 --> 02:14:06,920 Speaker 1: the fifth, you're going to see a big time there. 3265 02:14:07,360 --> 02:14:08,840 Speaker 1: So just a question of how long the fight goes. 3266 02:14:08,880 --> 02:14:11,520 Speaker 1: There's a way which he actually is really suffering, and 3267 02:14:11,600 --> 02:14:14,840 Speaker 1: we just don't ever actually see it by virtue of 3268 02:14:14,880 --> 02:14:16,400 Speaker 1: the way the fight itself goes. 3269 02:14:17,200 --> 02:14:18,840 Speaker 2: That makes sense, I guess, I guess. 3270 02:14:18,880 --> 02:14:20,840 Speaker 1: All right, let let's move this along if we can. 3271 02:14:21,960 --> 02:14:28,200 Speaker 1: So there's been a lot of comments about the gloves. 3272 02:14:29,280 --> 02:14:31,440 Speaker 1: Let's go side by side view of it. The first 3273 02:14:31,480 --> 02:14:33,080 Speaker 1: card with the new gloves, the first card with the 3274 02:14:33,120 --> 02:14:35,000 Speaker 1: new gloves us see three to zero two. So the 3275 02:14:35,080 --> 02:14:37,080 Speaker 1: one in this gentleman on the left of the screen 3276 02:14:37,160 --> 02:14:38,960 Speaker 1: is the old one. On the right of the screen 3277 02:14:39,080 --> 02:14:41,800 Speaker 1: is the new one the right one. So you can 3278 02:14:41,840 --> 02:14:43,760 Speaker 1: see the profiles a little bit smaller as an extra 3279 02:14:43,920 --> 02:14:47,400 Speaker 1: bend in it along the way is a little bit. 3280 02:14:47,760 --> 02:14:50,680 Speaker 1: I can say this. It's a little lighter. It's closer 3281 02:14:50,720 --> 02:14:52,320 Speaker 1: to three and a half ounce, is not four or 3282 02:14:52,320 --> 02:14:52,960 Speaker 1: even five and six? 3283 02:14:53,120 --> 02:14:55,000 Speaker 2: What does that mean for handbreaking. Will we see more? 3284 02:14:55,160 --> 02:14:56,560 Speaker 1: Well, this is what I mean. Let me just say 3285 02:14:56,560 --> 02:14:58,160 Speaker 1: something here because I you know what, let's do this. 3286 02:14:58,440 --> 02:15:01,080 Speaker 1: Let's play Sean Strickland's comments about it because he doesn't 3287 02:15:01,080 --> 02:15:02,760 Speaker 1: like them. Let's see what he has to say. So also, 3288 02:15:02,840 --> 02:15:04,120 Speaker 1: the first time that you know we're gonna have the 3289 02:15:04,160 --> 02:15:06,960 Speaker 1: new UFC gloves, and Islam was saying, you know they 3290 02:15:07,040 --> 02:15:09,040 Speaker 1: might lead to more cuts because they yeah, they smaller. 3291 02:15:09,120 --> 02:15:09,720 Speaker 1: Yeah you don't like them? 3292 02:15:09,800 --> 02:15:11,800 Speaker 7: Yeah, they suck dude, I don't know who, like I 3293 02:15:12,040 --> 02:15:14,280 Speaker 7: really can we talk to the person who designed these gloves? 3294 02:15:14,360 --> 02:15:16,320 Speaker 2: Have you ever been in a fight in your fucking life? 3295 02:15:17,200 --> 02:15:19,920 Speaker 7: It's like it's like you get these fucking dorks have 3296 02:15:20,040 --> 02:15:21,600 Speaker 7: no idea and they're like, oh, this sounds like a 3297 02:15:21,640 --> 02:15:23,760 Speaker 7: good idea, and they make it. Same thing with motorcycles, 3298 02:15:23,800 --> 02:15:25,760 Speaker 7: Like I bought motorcycles and they put so much stupid 3299 02:15:25,800 --> 02:15:28,320 Speaker 7: shit on it, Like, how did you asshole think this 3300 02:15:28,440 --> 02:15:28,960 Speaker 7: was a good idea? 3301 02:15:29,000 --> 02:15:31,320 Speaker 8: So ya know, they absolutely suck you. So you dropped 3302 02:15:31,320 --> 02:15:33,080 Speaker 8: the ball in that one. Can you expand a little 3303 02:15:33,120 --> 02:15:37,000 Speaker 8: bit on why you don't like the gloves, the new gloves, like, well, 3304 02:15:37,160 --> 02:15:39,200 Speaker 8: I were well one, I mean the ones they gave 3305 02:15:39,240 --> 02:15:40,920 Speaker 8: me to small side to go up his size. But 3306 02:15:42,160 --> 02:15:44,920 Speaker 8: I think they what was he what was the reasoning that, uh, 3307 02:15:45,280 --> 02:15:46,840 Speaker 8: they wanted to try to make it so people stop 3308 02:15:46,960 --> 02:15:50,360 Speaker 8: poking people in the eyes. I think so less cuts, 3309 02:15:50,360 --> 02:15:52,640 Speaker 8: even though Islam said they're gonna have more cuts, Well. 3310 02:15:52,560 --> 02:15:55,000 Speaker 7: They're they're a little bit more like a stitched and 3311 02:15:55,240 --> 02:15:59,040 Speaker 7: the today people people fucking get poked in the eyes 3312 02:15:59,040 --> 02:16:01,480 Speaker 7: because they open their fuck in hands. Unless you put 3313 02:16:01,480 --> 02:16:03,360 Speaker 7: a boxing glove on, that shit's not going to stop. 3314 02:16:03,440 --> 02:16:07,120 Speaker 7: So it's just people creating a problem that we. 3315 02:16:07,200 --> 02:16:07,680 Speaker 4: Did not have. 3316 02:16:08,040 --> 02:16:09,520 Speaker 7: If you get cut because you get hit in the 3317 02:16:09,560 --> 02:16:11,080 Speaker 7: fucking head, don't get hit in the fucking hey, you 3318 02:16:11,120 --> 02:16:12,880 Speaker 7: don't get cut, you get poked in the eyes because 3319 02:16:12,880 --> 02:16:14,560 Speaker 7: you fucking open your hands. Don't open your hands, you 3320 02:16:14,560 --> 02:16:16,720 Speaker 7: won't get poked in the eye. So just you know, 3321 02:16:17,040 --> 02:16:19,600 Speaker 7: as as people creating problems and aren't there. 3322 02:16:21,520 --> 02:16:24,280 Speaker 2: But we did need an improvement from the lost gloves 3323 02:16:24,360 --> 02:16:26,600 Speaker 2: that had detailed issues. 3324 02:16:26,960 --> 02:16:31,000 Speaker 1: UFC does not have to deal with a player's union because. 3325 02:16:30,800 --> 02:16:32,520 Speaker 2: He would know better than we would. I'm not I'm 3326 02:16:32,560 --> 02:16:36,440 Speaker 2: not arguing against his take that they're worse, but did 3327 02:16:36,480 --> 02:16:38,560 Speaker 2: they address the concerns that were aimed at. 3328 02:16:38,680 --> 02:16:40,000 Speaker 1: This is this is what I think people have to 3329 02:16:40,040 --> 02:16:40,640 Speaker 1: really wake up to. 3330 02:16:40,800 --> 02:16:40,959 Speaker 4: There. 3331 02:16:41,200 --> 02:16:44,040 Speaker 1: As I just said, there is no fighters union. So 3332 02:16:44,080 --> 02:16:46,080 Speaker 1: when the UFC wants to roll out in equipment change, 3333 02:16:46,080 --> 02:16:47,880 Speaker 1: which is like the Rebok deal, when they want to 3334 02:16:47,959 --> 02:16:53,040 Speaker 1: roll out any new thing, new gloves, whatever, there's no 3335 02:16:53,560 --> 02:16:56,920 Speaker 1: athlete committee, there's no athlete representative that they really have 3336 02:16:57,040 --> 02:16:59,879 Speaker 1: to work with in conjunction to do any of these things. 3337 02:17:00,000 --> 02:17:02,480 Speaker 1: There's nothing that is enabling them to have any kind 3338 02:17:02,520 --> 02:17:04,800 Speaker 1: of say over this. So they just sing with you 3339 02:17:04,879 --> 02:17:06,600 Speaker 1: saw it. They roll out the policy, they're like, oh, 3340 02:17:06,680 --> 02:17:08,960 Speaker 1: we asked the fighters if they were in favor of that, 3341 02:17:09,080 --> 02:17:10,880 Speaker 1: but that's just simply not true, not in any kind 3342 02:17:10,879 --> 02:17:12,800 Speaker 1: of meaningful way. And then of course what do you 3343 02:17:12,840 --> 02:17:15,360 Speaker 1: find BC over time? They have to make adjustments over time. 3344 02:17:15,879 --> 02:17:18,400 Speaker 1: I will say this, we simply don't have enough information 3345 02:17:18,520 --> 02:17:20,840 Speaker 1: to know if these gloves are good or bad. The 3346 02:17:20,879 --> 02:17:24,120 Speaker 1: skepticism from the fighters gives me some pause, but let's 3347 02:17:24,240 --> 02:17:28,160 Speaker 1: ultimately see what they what the data really shows about cuts, 3348 02:17:28,600 --> 02:17:32,120 Speaker 1: about ipokes, anything else is trying to solve for handbrakes. 3349 02:17:32,440 --> 02:17:34,440 Speaker 1: But I'm just gonna say this, all of this, this 3350 02:17:34,520 --> 02:17:36,720 Speaker 1: is what I mean about like not doing anything to 3351 02:17:36,840 --> 02:17:39,640 Speaker 1: help themselves any kind of equipment change. They should be 3352 02:17:39,680 --> 02:17:41,200 Speaker 1: able to have some kind of say over, and they 3353 02:17:41,240 --> 02:17:42,279 Speaker 1: don't because they chose. 3354 02:17:42,120 --> 02:17:44,960 Speaker 2: The oars launch in the Dana White Contender series or 3355 02:17:45,120 --> 02:17:45,920 Speaker 2: on the region. 3356 02:17:46,280 --> 02:17:47,920 Speaker 1: It just it just gets back to if you don't 3357 02:17:47,920 --> 02:17:51,080 Speaker 1: want a fighters union, complaining about gloves after the fact 3358 02:17:51,160 --> 02:17:53,039 Speaker 1: means fucking nothing. Nothing. 3359 02:17:53,160 --> 02:17:54,880 Speaker 2: I hope it works out for everyone. I really do 3360 02:17:55,080 --> 02:17:57,879 Speaker 2: in the end, Luke, but what about the gold ones? 3361 02:17:57,879 --> 02:17:59,840 Speaker 1: Though? That's just a color change? 3362 02:18:00,000 --> 02:18:00,760 Speaker 2: I know, but do you like that? 3363 02:18:01,280 --> 02:18:04,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I also don't understand why every short, short 3364 02:18:04,480 --> 02:18:06,440 Speaker 1: pair of shorts that Venom makes has to be loud. 3365 02:18:06,760 --> 02:18:08,160 Speaker 1: They're all like super loud. 3366 02:18:08,440 --> 02:18:10,680 Speaker 2: But it was Trevor Whitman. Didn't he have the blueprint 3367 02:18:10,680 --> 02:18:11,520 Speaker 2: for the better gloves? 3368 02:18:11,840 --> 02:18:14,800 Speaker 1: And it is believed that he does, But to my knowledge, 3369 02:18:14,840 --> 02:18:16,640 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's any data that supports his 3370 02:18:16,840 --> 02:18:19,160 Speaker 1: work either. Which isn't say I'm speaking against it. I'm 3371 02:18:19,160 --> 02:18:22,000 Speaker 1: simply saying, what do we know from an evidence based perspective? 3372 02:18:22,000 --> 02:18:24,800 Speaker 1: I'm not sure what that answer is. Last, but not least, 3373 02:18:24,879 --> 02:18:28,680 Speaker 1: on Sean Strickland, he did a sit down with Daniel 3374 02:18:28,720 --> 02:18:32,080 Speaker 1: Cormier on his YouTube channel and spoke about UFC fighter pay. 3375 02:18:32,879 --> 02:18:35,400 Speaker 1: It certainly made some waves on social media. Here's what 3376 02:18:35,480 --> 02:18:35,959 Speaker 1: he had to say. 3377 02:18:36,440 --> 02:18:38,520 Speaker 7: But no, just doing the fucking right things, man Like, 3378 02:18:38,640 --> 02:18:40,959 Speaker 7: the UFC doesn't do the right things. It doesn't fucking 3379 02:18:41,040 --> 02:18:42,400 Speaker 7: do the right things. It doesn't do the right things. 3380 02:18:42,600 --> 02:18:46,560 Speaker 7: They're most rosters. Like if you go look at you know, 3381 02:18:46,640 --> 02:18:48,160 Speaker 7: if you go look at what these fucks are the 3382 02:18:48,200 --> 02:18:50,080 Speaker 7: guys that run, you see what they're making to what 3383 02:18:50,200 --> 02:18:52,320 Speaker 7: guys get paid is fucking shit, dude, they don't. The 3384 02:18:52,480 --> 02:18:56,360 Speaker 7: UFC does not do the fucking right things. And unless 3385 02:18:56,360 --> 02:18:58,760 Speaker 7: you hold him at fucking, you know, gunpoint, they ain't 3386 02:18:58,760 --> 02:18:59,440 Speaker 7: gonna fucking do it. 3387 02:19:01,480 --> 02:19:03,720 Speaker 2: I would love to have DC's response to that. What 3388 02:19:03,840 --> 02:19:06,400 Speaker 2: did he say? Because you know not much. This is 3389 02:19:06,480 --> 02:19:09,959 Speaker 2: where Strickland can become the hero that the fighters need 3390 02:19:10,120 --> 02:19:12,800 Speaker 2: because he has something to lose in risk by taking 3391 02:19:12,879 --> 02:19:16,160 Speaker 2: this stance and he doesn't seem to be wrong, and 3392 02:19:16,280 --> 02:19:19,080 Speaker 2: you need more people with something to lose to speak up, 3393 02:19:19,120 --> 02:19:21,960 Speaker 2: which no one does. I'm not surprised he is well, 3394 02:19:21,959 --> 02:19:22,480 Speaker 2: like I say. 3395 02:19:22,320 --> 02:19:24,880 Speaker 1: I am, I mean okay, but he did he not 3396 02:19:25,080 --> 02:19:27,000 Speaker 1: like a few fights to go say, I'm a company guy. 3397 02:19:26,959 --> 02:19:30,080 Speaker 2: Just does this fit the narrative that gets thrown a 3398 02:19:30,120 --> 02:19:32,000 Speaker 2: lot around, a lot that Dana hates him in the 3399 02:19:32,080 --> 02:19:34,400 Speaker 2: UFC doesn't want him on top because of some of 3400 02:19:34,480 --> 02:19:37,600 Speaker 2: the ali They are standing strong like we won't police 3401 02:19:37,600 --> 02:19:39,160 Speaker 2: our fighters. You know, we've been up and down that 3402 02:19:39,200 --> 02:19:42,039 Speaker 2: debate a million times. But now he's turned the corner 3403 02:19:42,080 --> 02:19:45,039 Speaker 2: and bring in some real truth. I wonder if they 3404 02:19:45,120 --> 02:19:47,480 Speaker 2: completely ignore it because they know that if they get 3405 02:19:47,520 --> 02:19:49,680 Speaker 2: into a war with him, he's just gonna keep He's 3406 02:19:49,680 --> 02:19:50,280 Speaker 2: gonna keep throwing. 3407 02:19:50,320 --> 02:19:50,720 Speaker 1: That's the thing. 3408 02:19:51,240 --> 02:19:54,199 Speaker 2: They're gonna lose these debates because the truth is mounled 3409 02:19:54,320 --> 02:19:57,000 Speaker 2: up against them. But they won the debate in court 3410 02:19:57,080 --> 02:20:00,640 Speaker 2: by paying to refuse a trial, and they was intimidation 3411 02:20:00,720 --> 02:20:04,720 Speaker 2: to shut people up. I don't you know, we haven't 3412 02:20:04,760 --> 02:20:07,840 Speaker 2: seen somebody we've seen like Randy Gator fight the good fight. 3413 02:20:07,920 --> 02:20:10,000 Speaker 2: We haven't seen somebody public with a microphone take it 3414 02:20:10,080 --> 02:20:12,400 Speaker 2: to this level. I wonder if they just ignored so 3415 02:20:12,440 --> 02:20:12,879 Speaker 2: it goes. 3416 02:20:12,720 --> 02:20:16,400 Speaker 1: Away, And maybe when was the last time a fighter 3417 02:20:16,560 --> 02:20:21,720 Speaker 1: complaining about pay meant serious question? 3418 02:20:22,320 --> 02:20:24,240 Speaker 2: When was the last anything? 3419 02:20:24,280 --> 02:20:28,720 Speaker 1: Francis and Gohano okay, but heat right because he left right, 3420 02:20:28,760 --> 02:20:30,640 Speaker 1: but he didn't fix UFC pay he just fixed his 3421 02:20:30,680 --> 02:20:33,840 Speaker 1: own pay by leaving. Yes, I meant change UFC pay. 3422 02:20:34,360 --> 02:20:36,320 Speaker 1: Was the last time anyone complained and. 3423 02:20:36,320 --> 02:20:38,160 Speaker 2: Got or didn't out of sign you get a huge 3424 02:20:38,360 --> 02:20:40,320 Speaker 2: raise when and got left, like didn't it. Then that 3425 02:20:40,360 --> 02:20:41,440 Speaker 2: create a little bit of a ripple. 3426 02:20:41,480 --> 02:20:43,840 Speaker 1: So the only time I can really think of was 3427 02:20:43,879 --> 02:20:46,600 Speaker 1: the case of TJ. Dillashaw and Donald Serrooney when they 3428 02:20:46,640 --> 02:20:49,120 Speaker 1: did the Double M Triple A with Bjorn Revne. And 3429 02:20:49,560 --> 02:20:51,320 Speaker 1: if you look at their contracts, they signed new contracts 3430 02:20:51,320 --> 02:20:52,879 Speaker 1: in the middle of what they already had was an 3431 02:20:52,920 --> 02:20:55,080 Speaker 1: existing one before they were on their last fight of 3432 02:20:55,120 --> 02:20:56,879 Speaker 1: their deal, and they got a big bump and pay 3433 02:20:56,959 --> 02:20:58,959 Speaker 1: out of nowhere. That kind of stuff has mattered, right 3434 02:20:59,040 --> 02:21:01,280 Speaker 1: let when you have leverage of them. Yeah, But short 3435 02:21:01,320 --> 02:21:03,560 Speaker 1: of that, it does nothing. 3436 02:21:03,879 --> 02:21:04,920 Speaker 2: I still respect this movie. 3437 02:21:05,000 --> 02:21:06,800 Speaker 1: I respect Don't get me wrong. It's not that I 3438 02:21:06,840 --> 02:21:10,119 Speaker 1: don't respect the the clarity of thought and really understanding 3439 02:21:10,160 --> 02:21:12,400 Speaker 1: what the power dynamics are and what the pay should be. 3440 02:21:12,480 --> 02:21:15,160 Speaker 1: I respect it in that sense absolutely. But I saw 3441 02:21:15,200 --> 02:21:16,720 Speaker 1: people being like, well, if you want to leave, if 3442 02:21:16,760 --> 02:21:18,080 Speaker 1: you don't like it, just leave. First of all, you 3443 02:21:18,160 --> 02:21:20,640 Speaker 1: can't like that, even though even though he's an AE 3444 02:21:20,680 --> 02:21:22,880 Speaker 1: beedded contractor. He is exclusive to one promoter. It's the 3445 02:21:22,879 --> 02:21:24,720 Speaker 1: first thing I'd say. And the second thing I'd say 3446 02:21:24,800 --> 02:21:27,920 Speaker 1: is for people being like, oh, well, you know this 3447 02:21:28,080 --> 02:21:30,440 Speaker 1: could disrupt and turn over the apple cart. It won't 3448 02:21:30,480 --> 02:21:34,040 Speaker 1: do fucking shit to the apple cart. It will everything 3449 02:21:34,240 --> 02:21:38,040 Speaker 1: is dude. I hope all the fighters are very happy 3450 02:21:38,120 --> 02:21:40,840 Speaker 1: with the arrangement that they have created for themselves because 3451 02:21:40,879 --> 02:21:43,439 Speaker 1: it ain't changed. Okay, what do you in my lifetime? 3452 02:21:43,560 --> 02:21:45,720 Speaker 2: What do you think would happen if Strickland wins. Let's 3453 02:21:45,720 --> 02:21:47,920 Speaker 2: say he thoroughly beats Costin wins, and we're waiting for 3454 02:21:47,959 --> 02:21:49,280 Speaker 2: the call out in the interview. Is you gonna call 3455 02:21:49,320 --> 02:21:53,240 Speaker 2: it DDP? I'm sonia? And instead he goes, Dana, take 3456 02:21:53,320 --> 02:21:56,520 Speaker 2: the fifty thousand bonus that I'm supposed to complain about 3457 02:21:56,520 --> 02:21:58,560 Speaker 2: and beg you for and shove it up your ass. 3458 02:21:58,560 --> 02:22:01,440 Speaker 2: It's about time we changed for the fighters. Does he 3459 02:22:01,600 --> 02:22:03,360 Speaker 2: just kind of get hung out to dry and not 3460 02:22:03,440 --> 02:22:05,760 Speaker 2: offer to fight for a while and or do just 3461 02:22:05,920 --> 02:22:08,320 Speaker 2: like because that's how changed. When you have to disrupt. 3462 02:22:08,400 --> 02:22:10,680 Speaker 2: He's a disruptor, and he's willing to disrupt in a 3463 02:22:10,760 --> 02:22:11,680 Speaker 2: lane that he believes in. 3464 02:22:11,720 --> 02:22:14,720 Speaker 1: And plays, not disrupting, it's not the same thing. 3465 02:22:15,080 --> 02:22:16,440 Speaker 2: So you'd have to try to hold out and then 3466 02:22:16,480 --> 02:22:17,640 Speaker 2: you would just get pushed down. 3467 02:22:17,520 --> 02:22:19,400 Speaker 1: And yeah, you would have to fall on your sword 3468 02:22:19,400 --> 02:22:21,080 Speaker 1: in all likelihood, which I understand why they don't want 3469 02:22:21,080 --> 02:22:23,680 Speaker 1: to do. But this is why, like voting for a union, 3470 02:22:23,760 --> 02:22:25,440 Speaker 1: you would not be falling on your sword, and they 3471 02:22:25,480 --> 02:22:26,320 Speaker 1: didn't do that either. 3472 02:22:26,360 --> 02:22:27,879 Speaker 2: Do you realize it's like once a week we get 3473 02:22:27,879 --> 02:22:30,200 Speaker 2: a UFC press release that's like, to their credit, we've 3474 02:22:30,240 --> 02:22:33,400 Speaker 2: signed another multimillion dollar partnership with this company. 3475 02:22:33,760 --> 02:22:34,640 Speaker 1: All they would have to do. 3476 02:22:34,720 --> 02:22:37,120 Speaker 2: One time is say, hey, guys, we've signed with this 3477 02:22:37,200 --> 02:22:39,240 Speaker 2: crypto thing you never heard of, and it's one hundred 3478 02:22:39,280 --> 02:22:40,920 Speaker 2: million dollar deal and we're going to give the whole 3479 02:22:41,000 --> 02:22:43,480 Speaker 2: thing to the fighters. Like if they just did stuff 3480 02:22:43,520 --> 02:22:45,760 Speaker 2: like that like once every five years, couldn't that just 3481 02:22:45,920 --> 02:22:48,120 Speaker 2: like chuck people up and I think people would shut up. 3482 02:22:48,120 --> 02:22:49,400 Speaker 2: They just don't even care about doing that. 3483 02:22:49,560 --> 02:22:51,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, like why do they? This is what I mean? 3484 02:22:51,360 --> 02:22:54,640 Speaker 1: It's like, what's what's Shawn Schuchlin complaining? Going to do nothing? Nothing? 3485 02:22:54,640 --> 02:22:57,480 Speaker 1: It will do nothing that. I respect it, I respect it, 3486 02:22:57,640 --> 02:23:02,040 Speaker 1: I respect I respect him. Understand that executive pay is 3487 02:23:02,280 --> 02:23:03,560 Speaker 1: this is not just true in the UFC, it's true 3488 02:23:03,600 --> 02:23:05,880 Speaker 1: more generally in the American economy that executive pay is 3489 02:23:05,920 --> 02:23:07,880 Speaker 1: out of control relative to what the people who actually 3490 02:23:07,920 --> 02:23:10,640 Speaker 1: make the stuff get paid. One percent, he's on the money. 3491 02:23:10,920 --> 02:23:12,960 Speaker 1: I just want to be clear complaining. I'm not saying 3492 02:23:12,959 --> 02:23:15,640 Speaker 1: he was like trying to be the hero to anybody. 3493 02:23:15,640 --> 02:23:17,920 Speaker 1: He was just speaking his mind. But for people who 3494 02:23:17,920 --> 02:23:19,360 Speaker 1: are like, oh, what's the UFC going to do about it? 3495 02:23:19,440 --> 02:23:21,480 Speaker 1: Fucking nothing, they don't care. Doesn't mean shit to him. 3496 02:23:21,720 --> 02:23:24,240 Speaker 1: They don't care at all that fighters complain. It does 3497 02:23:24,720 --> 02:23:27,720 Speaker 1: nothing to their business. So let them complain. I think 3498 02:23:27,760 --> 02:23:30,960 Speaker 1: that's the UFC's perspective anyway. All right, all right, BC, 3499 02:23:31,120 --> 02:23:33,240 Speaker 1: With that in mind, we have a one last thing 3500 02:23:33,280 --> 02:23:34,440 Speaker 1: to get to, which is the boxing. 3501 02:23:34,840 --> 02:23:35,760 Speaker 2: Somebody's gonna bang. 3502 02:23:36,320 --> 02:23:38,400 Speaker 1: So why don't you set this up? What is happening 3503 02:23:38,480 --> 02:23:40,160 Speaker 1: in riodd Saudi Arabia. It was supposed to be the 3504 02:23:40,160 --> 02:23:41,160 Speaker 1: better Beef Bivall fight. 3505 02:23:41,360 --> 02:23:44,440 Speaker 2: Yes, Bivall is still on the card, fighting a guy 3506 02:23:44,520 --> 02:23:46,440 Speaker 2: no one's ever heard of. To stay busy, but it's 3507 02:23:46,480 --> 02:23:47,320 Speaker 2: cool that he's still on the card. 3508 02:23:47,320 --> 02:23:48,960 Speaker 1: I guess defending him first of all, do we know 3509 02:23:49,080 --> 02:23:51,760 Speaker 1: when that fight is going to be rebooked the. 3510 02:23:51,800 --> 02:23:53,640 Speaker 2: Better Beef one. Yeah, I think the injury is going 3511 02:23:53,680 --> 02:23:56,080 Speaker 2: to take a little bit. So I'm thinking with this 3512 02:23:56,240 --> 02:23:58,760 Speaker 2: year without having knowledge that it's probably gonna be or 3513 02:23:58,800 --> 02:24:00,160 Speaker 2: maybe I don't know. Let me, I don't don't know 3514 02:24:00,200 --> 02:24:01,480 Speaker 2: that answer. I think they would love to slip it 3515 02:24:01,520 --> 02:24:04,000 Speaker 2: in before the end of the year. Turkeylo. She did announce, 3516 02:24:04,040 --> 02:24:05,840 Speaker 2: by the way, that the Fury Usik rematch will take 3517 02:24:05,879 --> 02:24:07,800 Speaker 2: place se so, but. 3518 02:24:07,879 --> 02:24:10,280 Speaker 1: The big news, of course, the big fight anyway is 3519 02:24:10,720 --> 02:24:11,560 Speaker 1: Deontay Wilder. 3520 02:24:11,640 --> 02:24:14,880 Speaker 2: It's in the afternoon from Kingdom Arena and riadd it 3521 02:24:14,920 --> 02:24:16,760 Speaker 2: to his own pay per view. I like it because 3522 02:24:17,000 --> 02:24:18,840 Speaker 2: I like that they've committed to this five on five thing, 3523 02:24:18,879 --> 02:24:20,840 Speaker 2: because even though it doesn't touch us as American fans 3524 02:24:20,879 --> 02:24:24,240 Speaker 2: as deeply to see long time rivals Eddie hern and 3525 02:24:24,720 --> 02:24:27,920 Speaker 2: uh and from Queensberry Frank Warren go head to head 3526 02:24:27,920 --> 02:24:30,200 Speaker 2: with her five fighters and Luke. To be fair, the 3527 02:24:30,280 --> 02:24:32,600 Speaker 2: captain of the matchroom team is Deontay Wilder, who is 3528 02:24:32,640 --> 02:24:34,480 Speaker 2: not even a matroom fighter and was sort of a 3529 02:24:34,520 --> 02:24:37,240 Speaker 2: wild card selection. But even with this card kind of 3530 02:24:37,280 --> 02:24:39,440 Speaker 2: falling apart, they've propped it back up and kept it there. 3531 02:24:39,600 --> 02:24:43,360 Speaker 2: Put Wilder versus Jean Jeel, jilllel Jiang excuse me in 3532 02:24:43,440 --> 02:24:45,560 Speaker 2: the main event and Luke as we get closer after 3533 02:24:45,560 --> 02:24:48,040 Speaker 2: I've written a couple of previews for CBS Sports. This 3534 02:24:48,240 --> 02:24:51,320 Speaker 2: is a creative, really fun heavyweight fight. It matters. It's 3535 02:24:51,360 --> 02:24:55,080 Speaker 2: in a season of Saudi just continuing this commitment to 3536 02:24:55,080 --> 02:24:58,240 Speaker 2: the heavyweight division and boxing in general. You got some 3537 02:24:58,400 --> 02:25:00,800 Speaker 2: interesting matchups from this five on five overall that are 3538 02:25:00,879 --> 02:25:04,280 Speaker 2: worth picking apart, especially whether you're hardcore casual, but just 3539 02:25:04,440 --> 02:25:07,680 Speaker 2: the violent potential, the tense stalking that we're gonna see 3540 02:25:07,959 --> 02:25:10,240 Speaker 2: for as long as it lasts between Deontay Wilder and 3541 02:25:10,360 --> 02:25:13,360 Speaker 2: Big BEng Jang. Dude, you gotta watch this fight, you guys. 3542 02:25:13,360 --> 02:25:16,160 Speaker 2: This is gonna be wild, weird, slow at times, crazy 3543 02:25:16,240 --> 02:25:18,560 Speaker 2: at other times. The fact that Wilder already has a 3544 02:25:18,600 --> 02:25:21,400 Speaker 2: fight schedule August third against Jared Big Baby Anderson, the 3545 02:25:21,480 --> 02:25:24,600 Speaker 2: unfeating American heavyweight prospect, and is being groomed to fight 3546 02:25:24,640 --> 02:25:26,920 Speaker 2: Anthony Joshua if he wins both or I guess in 3547 02:25:27,000 --> 02:25:30,120 Speaker 2: theory doesn't look bad in both, because you know, look, 3548 02:25:30,200 --> 02:25:32,760 Speaker 2: Turkey Alischka's boxing Santa Claus and they're just giving us 3549 02:25:32,800 --> 02:25:35,280 Speaker 2: everything we ever thought we wanted I didn't realize how 3550 02:25:35,360 --> 02:25:37,160 Speaker 2: much I kind of want this fight. Both guys are 3551 02:25:37,200 --> 02:25:39,920 Speaker 2: coming off direct losses to Joseph Parker in the last 3552 02:25:40,000 --> 02:25:43,360 Speaker 2: four months. Both have huge flaws. We don't know if 3553 02:25:43,400 --> 02:25:45,240 Speaker 2: Deontay Wilder is going to bounce back and be the 3554 02:25:45,360 --> 02:25:47,280 Speaker 2: same because when we saw him four months ago or 3555 02:25:47,280 --> 02:25:50,200 Speaker 2: six months ago, after that ayahuasca retwreat he just did 3556 02:25:50,320 --> 02:25:52,879 Speaker 2: not have it anymore, did not have the killer instinct. Well, 3557 02:25:52,920 --> 02:25:54,640 Speaker 2: now he says, I'm going back to trying to get 3558 02:25:54,680 --> 02:25:56,280 Speaker 2: a body in the in the ring, and he's going 3559 02:25:56,320 --> 02:25:59,480 Speaker 2: for the knockout. But Luke as good as Joelle Jang 3560 02:25:59,520 --> 02:26:02,200 Speaker 2: has done rebuilding his career the last few years, He's 3561 02:26:02,320 --> 02:26:05,320 Speaker 2: forty one and never had championships. Stamming up, he could 3562 02:26:05,400 --> 02:26:10,600 Speaker 2: run into a bomb squad delivery late in this fight easily. Dude, 3563 02:26:10,640 --> 02:26:12,600 Speaker 2: where do you lean on this? Outside of the fact 3564 02:26:12,600 --> 02:26:13,600 Speaker 2: that it's gonna they're gonna bang. 3565 02:26:13,720 --> 02:26:15,760 Speaker 1: This fight is interesting. You had Deontay Wilder who went 3566 02:26:15,800 --> 02:26:19,560 Speaker 1: out on his shield and the third Tyson Fury fight 3567 02:26:20,520 --> 02:26:23,520 Speaker 1: took I know he looked good against Robert Helenius, and then. 3568 02:26:23,520 --> 02:26:25,240 Speaker 2: That was one round in two years, one round. 3569 02:26:25,040 --> 02:26:27,000 Speaker 1: In two years, knocked him out with former sporting partner, 3570 02:26:27,680 --> 02:26:30,600 Speaker 1: and then obviously came back against Joseph Parker and looked 3571 02:26:30,920 --> 02:26:34,960 Speaker 1: like shit, looked aterrible, disinterested, He got he nearly got 3572 02:26:35,000 --> 02:26:37,400 Speaker 1: finished at one point in the fight, how skinny. He 3573 02:26:37,600 --> 02:26:40,600 Speaker 1: just did not look at all like the Deontay Wilder 3574 02:26:40,920 --> 02:26:42,640 Speaker 1: we had previously seen and we were used to him 3575 02:26:42,680 --> 02:26:45,480 Speaker 1: losing rounds. Remember I think he was down six nothing 3576 02:26:45,520 --> 02:26:47,840 Speaker 1: in terms of rounds against Louis Ortiz and then he 3577 02:26:47,920 --> 02:26:50,560 Speaker 1: just you know, crushed him with the one Yeah, crushed 3578 02:26:50,600 --> 02:26:52,360 Speaker 1: him with the one nuclear shot, So that okay, whatever, 3579 02:26:52,720 --> 02:26:55,560 Speaker 1: but there was just none of that. Okay. The other 3580 02:26:55,640 --> 02:26:58,680 Speaker 1: part is Jang looked good against Joe Joyce, not once but. 3581 02:26:58,800 --> 02:27:01,440 Speaker 2: Twice, knocking him out, and then he looked like. 3582 02:27:01,480 --> 02:27:03,959 Speaker 1: Shit against Joseph. Well, he knocked down Joseph Parker hit 3583 02:27:04,000 --> 02:27:06,640 Speaker 1: a moment in the fight, especially in that third, but 3584 02:27:06,720 --> 02:27:08,680 Speaker 1: then after that just kind of hit the brakes. 3585 02:27:08,440 --> 02:27:11,039 Speaker 2: The whole time. He doesn't have the right stamina yet. 3586 02:27:11,160 --> 02:27:15,320 Speaker 1: He's what forty one forty one and Wilder thirty eight 3587 02:27:15,400 --> 02:27:19,200 Speaker 1: years of age. Dude, this is a monster fight, at 3588 02:27:19,320 --> 02:27:21,800 Speaker 1: least in the sense of what the fuck do these 3589 02:27:21,840 --> 02:27:23,800 Speaker 1: two guys have left if anything. 3590 02:27:23,720 --> 02:27:26,280 Speaker 2: Well, if Zang wins, which is very possible, he might 3591 02:27:26,320 --> 02:27:28,440 Speaker 2: get Anthony Joshua next because we also have on this 3592 02:27:28,560 --> 02:27:32,040 Speaker 2: card Philip Ergovic fighting Daniel Dubot they think for the 3593 02:27:32,120 --> 02:27:35,440 Speaker 2: IBF title, but it's not sure because now Al Alexander 3594 02:27:35,520 --> 02:27:37,879 Speaker 2: Usik has filed an appeal to the IBF, so they 3595 02:27:37,959 --> 02:27:39,920 Speaker 2: might be able to keep that real belt together. And 3596 02:27:39,959 --> 02:27:41,640 Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you ahead of time spoiler alert, 3597 02:27:41,800 --> 02:27:44,760 Speaker 2: they will because it makes financial sense to everyone to 3598 02:27:44,920 --> 02:27:47,760 Speaker 2: keep that an undisputed and mostly to the sanctioning body. 3599 02:27:47,800 --> 02:27:50,440 Speaker 2: They'll make more money if Usak's defending it. Either way, Luke, 3600 02:27:50,480 --> 02:27:54,120 Speaker 2: if we've got the fallout of this Ergovic versus Dubois fight, 3601 02:27:54,800 --> 02:27:56,320 Speaker 2: the winner of that and the winner of this fight 3602 02:27:56,440 --> 02:27:58,240 Speaker 2: is going to be in play for Anthony Joshua potentially, 3603 02:27:58,280 --> 02:28:01,040 Speaker 2: and that's big business to come. So Wilder said the 3604 02:28:01,400 --> 02:28:03,800 Speaker 2: loss was what he needed and embarrassed him against Parker 3605 02:28:03,879 --> 02:28:05,520 Speaker 2: so much that he went back and fell in love 3606 02:28:05,560 --> 02:28:08,760 Speaker 2: with working Hard again. He is a slight underdog. Wild 3607 02:28:08,760 --> 02:28:11,119 Speaker 2: There is about minus one or plus one forty less 3608 02:28:11,120 --> 02:28:14,080 Speaker 2: than my check. Jang is a favorite, just slight in 3609 02:28:14,120 --> 02:28:17,600 Speaker 2: the other way. I'm feeling I'm feeling. I'm leaning Wilder here, 3610 02:28:17,800 --> 02:28:20,920 Speaker 2: But either man could legitimately fall apart at any point, 3611 02:28:21,200 --> 02:28:23,920 Speaker 2: or either man could land that one big shot and 3612 02:28:24,000 --> 02:28:25,440 Speaker 2: knock the other one out. This is going to be great. 3613 02:28:25,440 --> 02:28:29,080 Speaker 1: I would say Jang has more tools, better boxer for sure. Yeah, 3614 02:28:29,520 --> 02:28:31,160 Speaker 1: I don't think he has a bad chin, but it 3615 02:28:31,360 --> 02:28:34,640 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. If Deonte really is something like what he 3616 02:28:34,760 --> 02:28:36,920 Speaker 1: used to be, he can beat Jang with a big shot. 3617 02:28:37,440 --> 02:28:39,160 Speaker 1: So I expect Wilder to lose a bunch of rounds. 3618 02:28:39,200 --> 02:28:41,640 Speaker 1: The question is can he rescue himself along the way 3619 02:28:42,120 --> 02:28:45,000 Speaker 1: like he last fight. Notwithstanding and you know the Fury 3620 02:28:45,040 --> 02:28:46,760 Speaker 1: fights or whatever, but in many of his fights he 3621 02:28:47,280 --> 02:28:48,520 Speaker 1: just comes out and rescues himself. 3622 02:28:48,879 --> 02:28:51,640 Speaker 2: Jang is hilarious, but he's been his worst advocate. Do 3623 02:28:51,640 --> 02:28:53,600 Speaker 2: you remember when he knocked down Jerry Forest three times 3624 02:28:53,640 --> 02:28:55,560 Speaker 2: in the first round in their fight about five years 3625 02:28:55,560 --> 02:28:59,120 Speaker 2: ago and then struggled to settle for a draw and 3626 02:28:59,280 --> 02:29:01,880 Speaker 2: was so exhausted afterwards that he had like organ failure. 3627 02:29:01,879 --> 02:29:04,160 Speaker 2: And it found he found out that he told that 3628 02:29:04,240 --> 02:29:06,480 Speaker 2: he drinks zero water during training camp. Didn't you know? 3629 02:29:06,680 --> 02:29:08,360 Speaker 2: He looked like he didn't know he was supposed to. 3630 02:29:08,560 --> 02:29:10,480 Speaker 2: So he's repaired it to a degree, but he still 3631 02:29:10,520 --> 02:29:12,440 Speaker 2: has these lapses and fights where he just does nothing. 3632 02:29:13,000 --> 02:29:15,280 Speaker 2: It's gonna be weird. But there's so much at stake 3633 02:29:15,320 --> 02:29:17,920 Speaker 2: and so much at play. And I mentioned the banging. 3634 02:29:18,600 --> 02:29:20,640 Speaker 2: We've got another one of these really funny videos that 3635 02:29:20,720 --> 02:29:25,160 Speaker 2: Queensberry put together. Here's Jeelle Jang promising Deontay Wilder what 3636 02:29:25,200 --> 02:29:26,200 Speaker 2: he's going to do on Saturday. 3637 02:29:26,760 --> 02:29:41,360 Speaker 1: Heteng your Brown's farmer. I'm big a ban I'm by your. 3638 02:29:38,640 --> 02:29:40,680 Speaker 2: I mean, look, there's like eight of those videos they 3639 02:29:40,720 --> 02:29:43,320 Speaker 2: pull out. They're all basically they say like hey Eddie Hern, 3640 02:29:43,920 --> 02:29:44,720 Speaker 2: I bang you too. 3641 02:29:44,920 --> 02:29:46,520 Speaker 1: You know, It's like, hey, I'm gonna bang you. 3642 02:29:46,680 --> 02:29:48,360 Speaker 3: This is the best bit ever. 3643 02:29:49,600 --> 02:29:50,920 Speaker 2: So it is such a good bit. 3644 02:29:51,640 --> 02:29:52,440 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna bang you. 3645 02:29:52,560 --> 02:29:55,279 Speaker 2: The fight's gonna be fun. Luke a couple other prospects 3646 02:29:55,360 --> 02:29:59,640 Speaker 2: worth watching. Dude, Saudi Rabi is on fire by proxy. 3647 02:29:59,720 --> 02:30:01,280 Speaker 2: Bach thing is I could not be more of you. 3648 02:30:02,120 --> 02:30:05,520 Speaker 2: You you you know we could be about a six pm. 3649 02:30:05,600 --> 02:30:09,039 Speaker 2: We're looking maybe I'm on the East coast, the main event. 3650 02:30:09,560 --> 02:30:12,520 Speaker 1: Perhaps the biggest event of all tomorrow.

They've already got the record. That would 3657 02:30:27,040 --> 02:30:30,160 Speaker 1: just make the record even harder to reach. Yeah, Kings 3658 02:30:30,160 --> 02:30:30,520 Speaker 1: of Europe. 3659 02:30:30,680 --> 02:30:32,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, you've been a fan of them for a hot minute, 3660 02:30:33,560 --> 02:30:36,200 Speaker 2: a hot second, Kings of Okay, I'll say it before it, 3661 02:30:36,280 --> 02:30:38,880 Speaker 2: I'll say it again.

Yeah, it'd be almost like a UFC 3698 02:32:00,760 --> 02:32:03,400 Speaker 1: All Star Division, if the such a thing. I axis 3699 02:32:03,440 --> 02:32:07,200 Speaker 1: from its Yeah, No, they're they're not. They're not good 3700 02:32:07,280 --> 02:32:09,480 Speaker 1: enough anymore. I ad all right. 3701 02:32:09,520 --> 02:32:12,960 Speaker 2: Final question, taking the family to London late summer. 3702 02:32:13,040 --> 02:32:13,560 Speaker 1: That's amazing. 3703 02:32:13,959 --> 02:32:18,600 Speaker 2: It's gonna be opening day for the Premiere the Premier League, 3704 02:32:18,640 --> 02:32:24,320 Speaker 2: the Premier League. Which tickets, which game? Which which environment 3705 02:32:24,360 --> 02:32:26,439 Speaker 2: should I seek out? When we're talking London. 3706 02:32:26,360 --> 02:32:28,280 Speaker 1: I would go, I mean, I don't know how much 3707 02:32:28,879 --> 02:32:32,480 Speaker 1: Premier League tickets are, but I know London is fucking expensive. Yes, 3708 02:32:33,080 --> 02:32:36,959 Speaker 1: I would say Arsenal, the et hod or the Emirates. 3709 02:32:37,560 --> 02:32:40,240 Speaker 2: I'm not far from Chelsea, so that'd be a tough ticket. Chelsea. 3710 02:32:40,240 --> 02:32:43,200 Speaker 1: You think Stanford Bridge, I don't know. I don't know. 3711 02:32:43,240 --> 02:32:45,920 Speaker 1: I've never been to one of those games. I think 3712 02:32:45,959 --> 02:32:47,920 Speaker 1: Tottenham might be more affordable, because that's a that's a 3713 02:32:47,959 --> 02:32:48,440 Speaker 1: scrub ass. 3714 02:32:48,640 --> 02:32:52,720 Speaker 2: I'll go to Forest Park with are'all. Luke Queen's Park, 3715 02:32:52,959 --> 02:32:54,360 Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what he's speaking about, 3716 02:32:54,840 --> 02:32:56,720 Speaker 2: talking about forests all the time. I don't even get it. 3717 02:32:57,000 --> 02:32:59,879 Speaker 1: Therefferent Nottingham. 3718 02:33:00,400 --> 02:33:02,680 Speaker 2: That's a play that could be cool, I think. But Luke, 3719 02:33:03,640 --> 02:33:06,200 Speaker 2: good luck to your team. Rayal, Okay, this means a 3720 02:33:06,240 --> 02:33:07,520 Speaker 2: lot to you. I want to see you happy. 3721 02:33:07,600 --> 02:33:09,600 Speaker 1: And I like how mad it makes people so mad, 3722 02:33:09,720 --> 02:33:12,240 Speaker 1: and I just I love it. I love how much 3723 02:33:12,280 --> 02:33:15,440 Speaker 1: it irritates you. It doesn't need to you let it. 3724 02:33:15,840 --> 02:33:18,760 Speaker 2: Because I dealt with I'm a Mets fan growing up 3725 02:33:19,080 --> 02:33:22,920 Speaker 2: in the at the intersection between Yankees and Red Sox fandoms, 3726 02:33:23,040 --> 02:33:25,120 Speaker 2: so you're just kind of forgotten. Despite the Mets having 3727 02:33:25,240 --> 02:33:27,960 Speaker 2: giant success in different windows, it wasn't sustained. So I 3728 02:33:28,120 --> 02:33:30,200 Speaker 2: dealt with the arrogance of this.
