00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 2: Uh, look before we dig deep into the warehouse and

Speaker 2: tell the audience any recent medical developments.

120
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 1: In your on that level. Although I dude, I I

121
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 1: so I have. There's different kinds of e bike specie,

122
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: and I've got a one that's like the tires are

123
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,160
Speaker 1: not normal bike tires, they're thicker, the bike is heavier.

124
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 1: You can get different kinds and put engines everywhere, but

125
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: mine's a little bit of a heavier one, and so

126
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 1: I have to I can't leave it on the street. Obviously,

127
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:35,920
Speaker 1: I have to put it in my house, which means

128
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:37,640
Speaker 1: I have to go up not five flights of stairs,

129
00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: but just five literal stairs, just like that way. And

130
00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,200
Speaker 1: normally it's no big deal. And I got it in,

131
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:45,600
Speaker 1: but my daughter left the pedals down where her feet

132
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: go because I use that to take her to school.

133
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 1: And so as I'm taking it up and this thing's heavy,

134
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:51,359
Speaker 1: you know, it's like it's like, you know, I like

135
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,840
Speaker 1: three hundred and fifty pounds pushing it up. The thing

136
00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,240
Speaker 1: my knee slams into the metal pedal that she left. Dude,

137
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,880
Speaker 1: I literally couldn't walk yesterday. It was so goddamn painful. However,

138
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 1: I do have good news. A. I can walk today. B.

Speaker 1: my live chat yesterday. We don't think there was any

145
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 1: major tech issues. Quietly optimistic, this might be a great

146
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,080

00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:46,520
Speaker 1: like right on top of me.

152
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,720

Speaker 1: talk about it. Why are we talking to re emerged.

158
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 2: With some shitty comments that have to be heard. They

159
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:08,080
Speaker 2: have to be discussed, or we'll be quick on Jake

160
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: Paul because I know people don't want that, all right,

161
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: They're like, I don't want Remember when the Hot Chip

162
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,600
Speaker 2: was like, hey THEO and Brendan, well it's for one

163
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 2: and THEO is like, I don't want that. Remember that? Okay,

164
00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 2: if you know cats, cats understand it's just cats talking

165
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:30,800
Speaker 2: to cats. Yeah, yeah, just to baseball that over here.

166
00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 2: All right, here we go. Let's move into the show. Now,

167
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 2: let's go with topic number one. The warehouse is hot.

168
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 2: On Saturday, UFC Fight Night is back and in the

169
00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: main event, Walter Waits, Gabriel bone Feme and Randy Brown.

170
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:50,240
Speaker 2: And this road to UFC Fight Night is brought to

171
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 2: you by Total Wireless, the official wireless provider of UFC.

172
00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 2: Get unlimited data that won't slow you down. Now, for

173
00:08:57,200 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 2: the second straight week, a pair of first time headline

174
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 2: will grace the octagon in Saturday's Fight Night Maine inside

175
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 2: the Apex in Las Vegas as the number fourteen ranked welterweight,

176
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 2: Gabrielle Boonefee puts his five and one UFC mark on

177
00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:12,840
Speaker 2: the line versus un ranked thirty five year old veteran

178
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,240
Speaker 2: Randy Brown, who oh, by the way, eight wins, two

179
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 2: losses since twenty twenty one. Luke, we know this is

180
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,600
Speaker 2: a style contrast here. What is the most intriguing part

181
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 2: of this fight that really, you know, when you look

182
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 2: at the contrast between them, has the greatest chance of

183
00:09:30,600 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 2: deciding which one seventy pounder comes out on top on Saturday.

184
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, as we indicate it, these are not

185
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: guys you would typically identify as UFC headliners. They're not

186
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,920
Speaker 1: bad fighters by any stretch. But you know this is

187
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,880
Speaker 1: a okay, absent the controversy last week, this is a

188
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 1: similar kind of event. So the question about whether this

189
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,800
Speaker 1: is a suitable main event and what this means is

190
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,080
Speaker 1: I think an important one, but no need to rehash it.

191
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: I'll say this. I think if you look at the

192
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,600
Speaker 1: numbers and you look at the tape a little bit

193
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: bonfeme it, he kind of has a reputation as maybe

194
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,600
Speaker 1: striker first, and I think that's probably largely deserved. But

195
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,960
Speaker 1: there's a couple of things here that stand out to me.

196
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 1: Number One, in MMA, this sometimes means less than what

197
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: it does, and say, for example, boxing, but Randy Brown

198
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,439
Speaker 1: has I think a six inch reach advantage, and he's

199
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:21,000
Speaker 1: already kind of lanky and uses his length for the

200
00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 1: most part pretty well. That stands out to me because

201
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 1: Bonfime is not one of these crouching strikers. He's kind

202
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 1: of up tall, and I don't know, I just feel

203
00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: like that is going to be a potentially you know,

204
00:10:32,920 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: their jobs are both going to be important, but Randy

205
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: Brown's jab with the bond themes posture. I'm not saying

206
00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:40,960
Speaker 1: that Bonfime can't be competitive on the feet, but I

207
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,439
Speaker 1: don't think that like if it's a twenty five minute

208
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:48,720
Speaker 1: battle on the feet, winnable certainly, but maybe not the

209
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,960
Speaker 1: best way to get the job done at a bare minimum.

210
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:52,680
Speaker 1: More to the point, you see if you just look

211
00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: at the takedowns, and that's really where I think this

212
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: might be one or loss, which is that Bonfeme averages

213
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 1: four point zero three takedowns per fifteen minutes, so he's

214
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 1: good for more than one around as a statistical average,

215
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,800
Speaker 1: and the takedown defense of Randy Brown seventy three percent.

216
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 1: But how much does he go for the takedown point

217
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,599
Speaker 1: seventy nine per fifteen minutes, like barely at all. The

218
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: point I'm trying to make here is it just looks

219
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 1: to me like if you look at Bonfime for example,

220
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 1: you know, he's sort of known as a guy who's

221
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 1: got a great guillotine. After he takes people down, he

222
00:11:24,440 --> 00:11:26,839
Speaker 1: lets them roll and then like for example against Trevin

223
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,280
Speaker 1: Giles and then locks up the guillotine, or you know,

224
00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,600
Speaker 1: he'll try and rerack something like he did against Chaos

225
00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 1: Williams so that he gets the dars choke off of

226
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:36,920
Speaker 1: a scramble from a back take. You know, he's very

227
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: very good about that kind of a thing. He goes

228
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 1: with the takedown aggressively. And in twenty twenty four, Brown

229
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 1: lost to Elizu Zelesqui do Santos after giving up and

230
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,840
Speaker 1: surrendering four takedowns in fifteen minutes. It just seems to MEBC,

231
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,960
Speaker 1: could you get a striking battle? Of course, and I

232
00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:55,280
Speaker 1: think large parts of this fight, for the extent that

233
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 1: it goes long, will be contested on the feet. But

234
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,800
Speaker 1: if Bonfime has a way to win, and it's not

235
00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: letting Brown have that six inch advantage on an already

236
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: lanky frame, and it's making him work for it. In

237
00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: grappling transition, or wrestling contexts.

238
00:12:09,160 --> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would agree with you on that one. Look,

239
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 2: if we take this main event and last week's Fight

240
00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:17,200
Speaker 2: Night main event, even though of the four fighters, I

241
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 2: guess you could argue that maybe Steve Garcia at the

242
00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 2: moment has sort of the highest ceiling and is pointing

243
00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,800
Speaker 2: more aggressively in the right direction. But do you feel

244
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:28,319
Speaker 2: like this Brown Bomfime fight could be better than last

245
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:29,040
Speaker 2: week's main event?

246
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: Well, in part because there are questions, you know, at

247
00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:38,079
Speaker 1: this point, fairly or otherwise, surrounding the effort that Onama

248
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:42,959
Speaker 1: gave that it's hard to say that this could be

249
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 1: Oh odd, Yes, this is the answer. Yes, I do

250
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 1: think this one stands to be competitive. I do think

251
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,199
Speaker 1: it is well matched. Again, the question about whether it

252
00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: should be a main event is sort of lingering over

253
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 1: the whole thing. But just as a fight itself, this

254
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,080
Speaker 1: one feels like it should go longer, and also something

255
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:04,480
Speaker 1: to be said for this you know, Brown and a Bonfime,

256
00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,559
Speaker 1: especially in Brown's case, you know he's been around here

257
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,480
Speaker 1: a good long while. This is a guy that's kind

258
00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 1: of seen good opponents and seen some bad ones and

259
00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: seen someones in all different contexts. I would suspect I'd

260
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 1: be surprised. I'll say this, I'd be very surprised if

261
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,160
Speaker 1: this one ended exactly the way that last week's ended,

262
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 1: or in a similar kind of time frame. The one

263
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,640
Speaker 1: exception BC is again Bonfime is very good sometimes about

264
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: rocking people or taking them down, letting them scramble a

265
00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 1: little bit, only so he can set up a submission.

266
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:36,439
Speaker 1: He stopped guys in the first round in the UFC

267
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,280
Speaker 1: doing exactly that, So I do think it'll be different,

268
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 1: but MMA's crazy. Maybe it won't be so different.

269
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 4: After all.

270
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,559
Speaker 2: Let's look at the odds for this one. DraftKings has

271
00:13:44,600 --> 00:13:47,439
Speaker 2: gabriel Bomfime, who technically is riding a three fight win

272
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: streak as a minus one seventy betting favorite rude boy

273
00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:55,080
Speaker 2: Randy Brown at age thirty five plus one forty two,

274
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 2: so a lot of respect in his direction. But I

275
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,600
Speaker 2: want to ask you whether it's respect for Brandon Brown

276
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: or a little bit of fear for Gabrielle Bonefeme, who

277
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 2: came on the scene like his brother Ishmael, who will

278
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:09,040
Speaker 2: also be fighting on this car to building with two Beldings,

279
00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 2: one of whom is Balding Luke. Yeah, let's let's go

280
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:16,800
Speaker 2: h But Luke, considering bone theme, Gabrielle is fresh off

281
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:19,480
Speaker 2: a split decision win against Steven Thompson that not a

282
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,000
Speaker 2: lot of people thought he deserved the win, and he's

283
00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 2: only two years removed from his loan defeat, a TKO

284
00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 2: loss via knees and punches. Is it fair to say that,

285
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 2: while we know he can go in there and submit

286
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 2: the lights off against B level fighters, that there's still

287
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:42,680
Speaker 2: some trepidation about whether, despite his number fourteen ranking, he's

288
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 2: on a true path to elite contention here.

289
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:48,520
Speaker 1: Yes, that's a totally reasonable question and absolutely fair. You're

290
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: right about, at a bare minimum, how the win over

291
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,760
Speaker 1: wonder Boy was perceived. And I think you'll remember these

292
00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: guys coming out of contentiaries, the hype on them was high, right,

293
00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: because Hey, we're just living in a world where we've

294
00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 1: seen a lot of Brazilian brother tandems do pretty well. Folks.

295
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:08,560
Speaker 1: Forget before Showgun, there was Ninja Hua, but you know

296
00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:12,240
Speaker 1: Showgun in Ninja were a great tandem. You've seen the

297
00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,480
Speaker 1: Diaz but it's not Brazilian, but it's you know, brother tandem,

298
00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,960
Speaker 1: Matt and Mark Hughes brother tandem. And then obviously the

299
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:19,160
Speaker 1: Patricio or as I say, the pit Bull brothers.

300
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 2: Right, so there's Amelia Ankos, come on.

301
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, there's a bunch of brother Tans. But

302
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,600
Speaker 1: in terms of the Brazilian side, we're just sort of

303
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 1: more recently living through some And this is the thing too,

304
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:30,400
Speaker 1: As I mentioned, you go through some of the early wins,

305
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: they're just outright just smashing these people, and what you

306
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: can get there is something where you don't know which

307
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,360
Speaker 1: way it's gonna go. Right, So if you see someone

308
00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: that's got like two three wins first second round stoppages

309
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 1: in the UFC, obviously they're talented. I mean that's that's

310
00:15:44,640 --> 00:15:47,000
Speaker 1: a given. But are they gonna go real far or

311
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:50,280
Speaker 1: are they just the kind of guy that can do

312
00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,920
Speaker 1: that sort of thing to that class of opponent but

313
00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: can't really graduate to the you know, next subsequent let

314
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: or you know, two or three levels after that, they

315
00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,960
Speaker 1: kind to peter out very quickly. That can be kind

316
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,240
Speaker 1: of fool's gold. And I think some people might be

317
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:08,960
Speaker 1: thinking around Gabriel Bonfien here, Hey wait a second. It

318
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: was great when he was doing that kind of thing

319
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,200
Speaker 1: to that class of opponent, but to the point you

320
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:17,000
Speaker 1: raised BC hasn't exactly been smooth as he's gone up

321
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:19,200
Speaker 1: the ladder, and the opponents have gotten a little bit

322
00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 1: more difficult. Brown is a good opponent, a flawed one,

323
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: but certainly an experienced one as well. So this is

324
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:26,600
Speaker 1: this is what I mean. This is a well matched fight.

325
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 1: It's not really a deserving main event, but it's a

326
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 1: well matched fight. You get kind of that answer there,

327
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:34,400
Speaker 1: But that's really one of the lingering questions around. I

328
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: would say both Bondfieme Brothers, but probably a little bit

329
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: more Gabrielle at this point about exactly how far is

330
00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: he gonna go look good early? Can he maintain that

331
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,920
Speaker 1: kind of pace on the pack. That's where some of

332
00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 1: the questions start to arise.

333
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 2: Indeed, we do have to pause this conversation for some

334
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:55,240
Speaker 2: form of odd breaking news from Long Island. Luke related

335
00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 2: to our talk about the hammer. Luke, Nocito, what do

336
00:16:58,680 --> 00:16:59,200
Speaker 2: you got for us?

337
00:16:59,240 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 1: All right?

338
00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 4: So the group chat was blowing up when we were

339
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:06,000
Speaker 4: talking about the Hammer of the month. Menietzsche was at

340
00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 4: the bomb shelter last week and he took this photo. Okay, okay,

341
00:17:13,920 --> 00:17:16,479
Speaker 4: that's getting right there on a shelf.

342
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,879
Speaker 2: Hey, dear, Malta. That's no longer yours, f money Lion,

343
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:20,840
Speaker 2: that's ours.

344
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:24,680
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, so we can away to get the hell Yes,

345
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 4: I bring that home.

346
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,400
Speaker 1: We got bring bring it back to where it belongs.

347
00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 2: Luke got all Pedro Serrano bring that ship to me? Yes, yes,

348
00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:36,360
Speaker 2: all right, all right back to this uh here fight card. Hey,

349
00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:38,640
Speaker 2: we got some sound here from the rude boy himself,

350
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 2: Randy Brown, representing Jamaica and his belief that whoever wins

351
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 2: on Saturday, the loser will be unconscious.

352
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:46,960
Speaker 1: I love it.

353
00:17:47,160 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 3: I love it.

354
00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,719
Speaker 6: I think he's a tough guy. He's a great fighter,

355
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:51,639
Speaker 6: you know what I mean. I got a lot of

356
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 6: respect for his skill set. Aggressive, fast, young, strong, explosive guy, athletic.

357
00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:03,040
Speaker 6: I think he has on the ground, good on the feet.

358
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 6: Somebody's going to sleep, somebody's getting finished. It's one of

359
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 6: those ones where, you know, I also don't think that

360
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:10,679
Speaker 6: this fight goes a distance. But you know, I'll be

361
00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 6: prepared for a hard fifteen or twenty five minutes, right.

362
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 6: But if it doesn't, which I don't think it will,

363
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 6: you know, I'll be prepared for that too. But somebody's

364
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:20,879
Speaker 6: going to sleep.

365
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 2: Look, speaking of going to sleep, let's do some MMA

366
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:27,359
Speaker 2: math here on a common opponent. How much does the

367
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:30,840
Speaker 2: fact that Randy Brown is fresh off of an April

368
00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:35,879
Speaker 2: win by KO over one Nicholas Dalby, who happens to

369
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 2: be the only fighter to defeat Gabriel bone Fime and

370
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,200
Speaker 2: he did that by TKO and bone Theme's only pro

371
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: and UFC defeat. How much does that common opponent ness

372
00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 2: factor into this matchup? In your eyes, the thing.

373
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,399
Speaker 1: Is that Dolby is a bit of a go getter.

374
00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,399
Speaker 1: You know, he's got a little bit of that to

375
00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 1: his own detriment. Sometimes he's got a little bit of

376
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: that Steve Garcia and him where he's just castantly knocking

377
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 1: on the door. And again it's a strategy where like

378
00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,680
Speaker 1: why would a fighter do that where they're constantly just

379
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:10,400
Speaker 1: kind of just trying stuff and you know, staying active

380
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 1: with at least touching their opponent. Well, on the good side,

381
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,200
Speaker 1: you just keep knocking. It's just a numbers game. Eventually

382
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,479
Speaker 1: there's going to be an opening and you can take

383
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:20,159
Speaker 1: advantage of it. And I think, you know, some of

384
00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,480
Speaker 1: what you saw in that fight reflects that reality. On

385
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: the other hand, what's one of the challenges if you

386
00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,840
Speaker 1: go up against the skilled operator, and you keep knocking

387
00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 1: like that, they're going to pick up on it and

388
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna tear you to pieces. So what

389
00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:34,280
Speaker 1: you have to ask yourself is is that how Randy

390
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 1: Brown is going to fight? I don't think so. Be see.

391
00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 1: Randy Brown, to me fights a little bit more methodically.

392
00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:42,960
Speaker 1: He fights a little bit more. I think he tries to.

393
00:19:43,440 --> 00:19:47,160
Speaker 1: I think Randy Brown fashions himself a little bit more

394
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:51,679
Speaker 1: of a slickster, and Dalby fashions himself more as like

395
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:56,040
Speaker 1: a jackhammer constantly, you know, just trying to make the fight,

396
00:19:56,560 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 1: to break with pace, to break with with pressure. Brown's

397
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 1: not exactly that kind of a fighter. Now be seen

398
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,439
Speaker 1: on the other the flip side, Brown is also I

399
00:20:05,440 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: think a pretty accurate striker generally speaking, pretty good about

400
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:11,520
Speaker 1: finding the target, has a lot of different kinds of weapons.

401
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: But I don't want to lose sight of the fact

402
00:20:14,480 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 1: that the common opponents sometimes can be quite significant. I

403
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: just feel like Brown fights in a way that works

404
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:24,880
Speaker 1: well against Dolby. Bonfime does not. But that doesn't mean

405
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,520
Speaker 1: that Brown the way he fights is like a uniquely

406
00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,919
Speaker 1: bad matchup for Bondfeme. I guess time will tell, but

407
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,439
Speaker 1: I have some skepticism about the math there all right.

408
00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,280
Speaker 2: Well, speaking of bomb themed setbacks, whether it be the

409
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 2: TKO loss to Nicholas Dlby or the sketchy ish win

410
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 2: or disputed win if you will over Steven Thompson, in

411
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:49,359
Speaker 2: which it did show us where bomb themes is at

412
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 2: and at least to add to those questions we talked about.

413
00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:56,719
Speaker 2: Here is a translated recap of Gabriel Bonefeme's interviews this

414
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,360
Speaker 2: week talking about what he learned from those.

415
00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 5: Fights with Phillies Compostent Dot.

416
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,720
Speaker 3: I'm really happy to be here. I feeling very great

417
00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 3: for great fit.

418
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,400
Speaker 7: God have been giving me this opportunity to not only

419
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 7: fight in the UFC, but in the UFC main events.

420
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,119
Speaker 5: So it's a dream come true.

421
00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,920
Speaker 7: It is exactly what I wanted to fight two three

422
00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 7: fights a year, So I'm getting three fights this year

423
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 7: and hopefully next year I can do the same thing.

424
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,959
Speaker 3: If I would. Albi was it was a huge milestone

425
00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:24,679
Speaker 3: of change for me.

426
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:27,960
Speaker 7: Now I grew more and so I need to adapt

427
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,600
Speaker 7: and need to grow, and I'm more more confident I can.

428
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:32,040
Speaker 3: Fight three five round fights.

429
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,639
Speaker 7: I just I needed that loss to grow and it

430
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 7: really developed my full potential.

431
00:21:36,080 --> 00:21:36,960
Speaker 3: So that did a lot for me.

432
00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 5: I assume I.

433
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 7: Love to fight diverse fighters for wrestlers and for strikers.

434
00:21:44,200 --> 00:21:46,639
Speaker 7: This makes me grow and involved and adapt so I

435
00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:48,200
Speaker 7: can be ready to one day be the champion of

436
00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:48,800
Speaker 7: the division.

437
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,080
Speaker 5: A little shifts from me.

438
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 7: Stephen Thompson is all the way around the guy on

439
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,119
Speaker 7: the most experienced guy in the division. So of course

440
00:21:57,160 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 7: after watching analyzim fight with him, I grew so much.

441
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:03,920
Speaker 7: It was so it was I grew more from from

442
00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 7: the fight than my losses. So I learned more from

443
00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,000
Speaker 7: fighting stick Compson and winning without the experience, then I

444
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:09,920
Speaker 7: learned from my losses.

445
00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 5: Did you key? I spity incidentally.

446
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,639
Speaker 7: Mostly mean to be very keen about the fight, like

447
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 7: it's a guy that could not blink. I had to

448
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 7: stay focused and dialed in the entire time. I had

449
00:22:19,080 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 7: to defend every if I blinked kick, so I defended

450
00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,360
Speaker 7: kicks and be aware, very weary. He's got good takedown defense.

451
00:22:24,760 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 7: So this overall mindset and me to be dial in

452
00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:29,440
Speaker 7: the fight. That was the biggest world I had from

453
00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:30,399
Speaker 7: fighting Stephen Thompson.

454
00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:34,680
Speaker 3: I have been fighting guys. They are long, very long,

455
00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:36,200
Speaker 3: with long range of good strikers.

456
00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 7: So it's gonna adapt and fall right into my game,

457
00:22:38,480 --> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 7: and I think it's going to be an amazing performance

458
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 7: of me on Saturday.

459
00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 3: I really believe I'll knock him out.

460
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 7: I'm going to press him with with with pressure, forward

461
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 7: and volume, and I think eventually I'm gonna lay my

462
00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 7: punch of knock him out.

463
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 2: Let's check in with our bedding.

464
00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:58,000
Speaker 1: By the way, who was translating there? Uh, Derek Koenig, No,

465
00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:03,399
Speaker 1: that was Jorge ger Zell. All right, Franklin's longtime partner,

466
00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,880
Speaker 1: slash coach, training partner, all that stuff. Yeah, you don't

467
00:23:05,920 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 1: mean life partner. No, no, no, I don't mean life part

468
00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:08,919
Speaker 1: I mean like Jim partner.

469
00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:10,560
Speaker 2: I mean I'd be down with that if that, you

470
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 2: know whatever. Let's bring in our own betting expert who

471
00:23:13,320 --> 00:23:16,679
Speaker 2: is on the same disccog as James Krause and Isaac

472
00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:19,560
Speaker 2: Dulgary and it's Long Island, Luke Nosita of the main

473
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 2: card minute you saw the odds here, we know the

474
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,679
Speaker 2: question surrounding bom Fime Brown's thirty five. He is on

475
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,639
Speaker 2: a nice little run there though, eight and two in

476
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 2: his last ten. How you betting this main event eight

477
00:23:30,640 --> 00:23:31,080
Speaker 2: and two in.

478
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 4: His last ten and one of those losses was that

479
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 4: Brian Battle loss, which, like, let's be real, he probably

480
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 4: won that fight, So we'll call it nine to one

481
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 4: lone loss to the champ.

482
00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 3: Not bad at all.

483
00:23:39,720 --> 00:23:42,639
Speaker 4: I'm not personally taking Randy Brown, but I'm backing Randy

484
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:44,679
Speaker 4: Brown in this fight for sure. Like, I feel like

485
00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:47,440
Speaker 4: he's gonna make it dirty, He's gonna get through the

486
00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,800
Speaker 4: first couple of rounds, make it go late. I don't

487
00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:52,120
Speaker 4: know how Bomme's gonna look once this goes rounds four

488
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 4: and five. So I feel like I like Randy personally.

489
00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,360
Speaker 4: I took the over one and a half in a parlay,

490
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,120
Speaker 4: so I'm hoping it goes at least a little long.

491
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 4: But you know, I'm back in Randy. I'll say Randy

492
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:03,880
Speaker 4: by decision. That's that's my pick.

493
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:06,520
Speaker 2: There, LT Are you leaning either way here? As we

494
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 2: look at this main event, I mean, look for storylines.

495
00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,399
Speaker 2: I kind of want bone theme to be real, you

496
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying. Like he's he's flashy, he's exciting,

497
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 2: But do I have fear that he'll guess out in

498
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 2: the championship rounds trying too hard to get a sub

499
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 2: Maybe maybe bro U, I'll go.

500
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 1: I'll go, bonfine. I mean, I don't know, you know,

501
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,320
Speaker 1: it's this is a close one. I yeah, yeah, I'll

502
00:24:30,359 --> 00:24:33,160
Speaker 1: say bonfin, I guess, but would be cool of Randy Winsman.

503
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, Luc, let's talk quickly about that co main event.

504
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,840
Speaker 2: Riding a four fight win streak in fresh Off by

505
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,679
Speaker 2: the Way at UFC three nineteen there of winning the

506
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 2: Ultimate Fighter Season thirty three championship. We haven't improved Joseph Morales,

507
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 2: who is in his second stint as a UFC fighter

508
00:24:50,359 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 2: as he takes on thirty five year old veteran in

509
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,360
Speaker 2: the recently retired Matt Schnell, who did return and get

510
00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 2: a victory to snap a three fight losing skid. Are

511
00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:02,640
Speaker 2: you all on Joseph Morales's potential here at Flyway?

512
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:03,400
Speaker 5: Uh?

513
00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:05,720
Speaker 1: You know what? To your point, he's making a second

514
00:25:05,720 --> 00:25:07,960
Speaker 1: crack at it. I kind of feel like there's very

515
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: few guys who when they make second cracks, ever really

516
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:15,960
Speaker 1: take it that far. They it tends to be, it

517
00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 1: tends to be that they come back improved, but they

518
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:20,160
Speaker 1: rarely come back revolutionized.

519
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:22,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, Brandon Moreno is a is a special case.

520
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,520
Speaker 1: You would say, right, He's the exception that sort of

521
00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:26,440
Speaker 1: proves the rule, and he got in there so early

522
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 1: and that to that point, Morales I think is only

523
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,560
Speaker 1: like thirty one, So you know, I definite feel like

524
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: you're getting a better version this time, like a legitimately

525
00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,240
Speaker 1: better version this time around. And Matchdell's a guy who's

526
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:39,440
Speaker 1: kind of been so I think Machelle's very talented, but

527
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,040
Speaker 1: he's been a little bit hittable. He's been in some

528
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 1: wars and kind of the other part is he was

529
00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 1: out of the fight game and then back in the

530
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 1: fight game, and I'm not questioning his level of professionalism,

531
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,800
Speaker 1: but I just don't know how much his heart is truly, truly,

532
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,920
Speaker 1: truly in it as a competitor anymore at the stage

533
00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:56,080
Speaker 1: of the game. So I don't know. I kind of

534
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:57,600
Speaker 1: like Morales is upside in this one.

535
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 2: Yeah, Morales more than a four to one fase in

536
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,440
Speaker 2: this flyweight clash. A lot of people are talking about

537
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 2: the action potential here as forty one year old Muslim

538
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 2: Solikoff enters as a slight dog plus one twenty four

539
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 2: against the minus one forty eight euros Metitch Luke, are

540
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 2: you feeling this fight or should we move on?

541
00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 1: This fight might be one of the two well, I

542
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,800
Speaker 1: don't know two best, but this one might be one

543
00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,240
Speaker 1: of the better ones on the freaking cardio. Muslim Salakov

544
00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,280
Speaker 1: is forty one years old and he's coming off of

545
00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: that Carlos leal right hook win which before that he

546
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:31,960
Speaker 1: had the Keenan Song spinning wheelkick both first round with KOs. Dude,

547
00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:34,080
Speaker 1: he still got a little razzle dazzle in that game

548
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,119
Speaker 1: in euros Metic. I like a lot, but he is

549
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: nothing if not hittable. I kind of like this one.

550
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 1: I think this one has like a strong potential to

551
00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,840
Speaker 1: be fun and make the highlight reel. Put it that.

552
00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: If I had to pinpoint BC know which one stands

553
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:50,199
Speaker 1: likely to get fut of the night or some kind

554
00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:52,800
Speaker 1: of performance bonus, I would circle that one.

555
00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 2: Real quick, long island, Luke, you're getting plus money on

556
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 2: a on a Solikoff who's on a run here? You

557
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:58,159
Speaker 2: like that?

558
00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,720
Speaker 4: I do like that. And not only that, he was

559
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:02,439
Speaker 4: he had Dulgarian type movement.

560
00:27:02,480 --> 00:27:03,240
Speaker 1: Now not really, but.

561
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 4: He was like plus one careful he was plus one

562
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 4: eighty like three days ago. To be clear, guys, this

563
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,960
Speaker 4: is totally normal for a fight to move that drastically

564
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 4: on fight week, not the day of the fight, but yeah,

565
00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,480
Speaker 4: he moved like from plus one's eighty ish to plus

566
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:19,000
Speaker 4: one twenty four now, so a lot of money's been

567
00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:20,679
Speaker 4: coming in on him as the week's been going on.

568
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,560
Speaker 4: I like him here. I think Earl's metics is Chiney

569
00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:25,160
Speaker 4: as fuck. All fourteen of his fights have never gone

570
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 4: the distance though Medich, so that one's probably going to

571
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,399
Speaker 4: be a banger in either direction.

572
00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,640
Speaker 2: All right, banger, I just gotta just met her, Luke.

573
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:36,120
Speaker 2: Let's go to the older Bonefime brother, Ishmael here at

574
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 2: lightweight a minus one ninety eight favorite against Chris Padia,

575
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 2: despite the fact that Ishmael has been finished in two

576
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,080
Speaker 2: of his last three fights, including a submission loss to

577
00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:50,760
Speaker 2: Ben La Saint Denis the God of war are I'm

578
00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 2: sure you're less confident on this bone Theme's upside than

579
00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 2: his bro or maybe I don't want to put words

580
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 2: in your mouth or any parts of my body, to

581
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,399
Speaker 2: be fair, how do you see this one here?

582
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:04,600
Speaker 1: Yeah? The issue with this one is Ishmael Bonfime has

583
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 1: fought and defeated better guys. But because he's fought better guys,

584
00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,040
Speaker 1: he's also got a couple of l's on there and

585
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,920
Speaker 1: the and you know, but like, who are the guys

586
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,520
Speaker 1: he's LAWT students. Sadakov right would be one of them

587
00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 1: who I think is a very very good fighter. And

588
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,720
Speaker 1: then prior to that, you know, as you indicated Ben

589
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: Wall Saint denis so like he's not those are you know,

590
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 1: those are tough fights, those are tough challenges. I think

591
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 1: it puts a ceiling on what you could imagine he

592
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:32,000
Speaker 1: would be. The problem is Chris Padilla pretty good thirty

593
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 1: years of age, but his wins are are Ji Herbert,

594
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: which is a good one, but it was a split,

595
00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: then Wrong Zoo and then James yan Top and it's like,

596
00:28:42,440 --> 00:28:44,280
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what that means, you know what

597
00:28:44,320 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like he's a little bubble ish

598
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 1: in terms of being on the UFC roster despite having

599
00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:51,640
Speaker 1: a three fight winning streak in the octagon. So this

600
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:53,760
Speaker 1: is to me, I would say, I don't know how

601
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,440
Speaker 1: long on Luke feels I might slight lean bond theme,

602
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,680
Speaker 1: but you know, if you're getting put out in fights,

603
00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:02,800
Speaker 1: even against good guys, that also carries risks even into

604
00:29:03,120 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: lesser opponents as well.

605
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like Hey, Ishmael, are you Nate Diaz in

606
00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 2: this brother combo? Or are you Lance Evans? Show us?

607
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:11,120
Speaker 2: Let us know right call me Ishmael.

608
00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:11,960
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying.

609
00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 2: Indeed, indeed right there, Ah, Luke, The fight I have

610
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:19,520
Speaker 2: circled here is a bantamweight banger, Ricky Simone brings a

611
00:29:19,600 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 2: minus one to seventy five slight betting favorite tag with

612
00:29:23,000 --> 00:29:27,240
Speaker 2: him against a red hot thirty eight year old Hyoni

613
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,480
Speaker 2: Barcelos who is riding a three fight win streak which

614
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:34,000
Speaker 2: includes an upset of Peyton Talbot on his initial rise

615
00:29:34,240 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 2: and the decision win last time out against Cody Garbrandt.

616
00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,600
Speaker 2: Here's the biggest question, Luke. Will there be action? Yeah,

617
00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 2: we know that, but is this run for Barcellos sustainable

618
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 2: against a refurbished Ricky Simone who seems to have put

619
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 2: a losing streak behind him.

620
00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,440
Speaker 1: You know what, I think the buck might stop here.

621
00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 1: I think what Barcelos has done has been tremendous. And

622
00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 1: Ricky Simone, I mean, it's hard to believe he's got

623
00:29:58,040 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 1: to win over Morob but you know or whatever, it

624
00:29:59,880 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 1: was a being. But the reality is, I just feel

625
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:09,120
Speaker 1: like Barcellos can take advantage over guys who aren't good

626
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: at chain wrestling or you know, tend to make some

627
00:30:14,440 --> 00:30:20,040
Speaker 1: more obvious tactical blunders. Ricky Simone is aggressive enough where

628
00:30:20,200 --> 00:30:22,240
Speaker 1: some of that might get him in trouble BC, but

629
00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 1: he can scramble his ass off, and he's quick. He's

630
00:30:25,160 --> 00:30:27,959
Speaker 1: at the athletic. I feel like Barcellos's game is going

631
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:31,440
Speaker 1: to come apart against someone like that. Barcellos, by the way,

632
00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,520
Speaker 1: say Simone has fought very good competition, you know, come

633
00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,960
Speaker 1: up short a few times obviously, but has fought some

634
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 1: really good competition. I know, I think the odds are

635
00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 1: pretty close. I like Simone in this one. And I'll

636
00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:45,800
Speaker 1: say this though, you see if Barcellos wins this one

637
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,720
Speaker 1: of all the ones to I mean, looking back, it's

638
00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 1: like Oha, he beat like Peyton Talbot or something. It's like, well, okay,

639
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:54,320
Speaker 1: that's a good win on name value. But Talbot was

640
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: a little bit overwhelmed. Yeah, Simone, for him to be

641
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:03,200
Speaker 1: overwhelmed would mean something more. So curious to see how

642
00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,880
Speaker 1: this one goes. But I do feel like this is

643
00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 1: kind of where things might fall apart for the forty

644
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 1: year old.

645
00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:12,360
Speaker 2: You would say this is where the rubber hits the road.

646
00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:16,320
Speaker 2: That's a classic Luke Thomas. Yeah, yes, yeah, Luke, I'm

647
00:31:16,320 --> 00:31:18,360
Speaker 2: gonna you know, you can have your favorites in the second.

648
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna dig down the card and ask you this.

649
00:31:20,640 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: There was a time when Myra Buono Sofa was kind

650
00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:25,959
Speaker 2: of looked like at the future as the future of

651
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:30,240
Speaker 2: this dead women's bandonweight division. Right now, though she's on

652
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,280
Speaker 2: a four fight windless streak, which includes a no contest,

653
00:31:34,520 --> 00:31:39,320
Speaker 2: it includes three straight defeats, including that really poor performance

654
00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 2: when she gassed out against Rocky Pennington for the vacant title.

655
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 2: What the hell happened here? As she promises a finish

656
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:51,560
Speaker 2: of Jacqueline Cavalcanti here in her return, it's like she's

657
00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,240
Speaker 2: fallen off faster than Barrao.

658
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:58,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know two of Yeah, I mean,

659
00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: Raquel Pennington was a champ or you know, reached champ status,

660
00:32:02,080 --> 00:32:04,320
Speaker 1: So losing to her is not the end of the world.

661
00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that was a shitty fight, and she had

662
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,920
Speaker 2: a shitty performance.

663
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:09,600
Speaker 1: I had a terrible, terrible performance. And then Macy chas

664
00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:11,920
Speaker 1: On and then Jasmine. It's not like she's losing the scrubs.

665
00:32:12,440 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 2: She has not opened up that cut on her face

666
00:32:14,480 --> 00:32:15,880
Speaker 2: where you could see her soul through it.

667
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, she's not losing the scrubs, but I agree

668
00:32:20,360 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: she's seemingly lost to step. She's thirty four. Now, you know,

669
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 1: some people age earlier than others, even you know, whatever

670
00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,720
Speaker 1: the numerical age ends up being, is the weight cutting

671
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:32,520
Speaker 1: getting to her? Did she peek and people figured it out?

672
00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:34,920
Speaker 1: Does she train not as hard as she once did?

673
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:36,880
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I agree with you. It's been

674
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:39,120
Speaker 1: a little bit lackluster in certain ways, and I felt

675
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 1: like there was a little bit more competitive fire early

676
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 1: in the run. So good opportunity for Cavalcanti here, I'll

677
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: say as much.

678
00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,320
Speaker 2: One more one. I want to circle and get your

679
00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,480
Speaker 2: thoughts on fans of red hats and gold le mat

680
00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:56,120
Speaker 2: and the Oval Office. Unite heavyweight and former San Francisco

Speaker 2: his official UFC debut against one Max Kmenez. If you

684
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:10,720
Speaker 2: want to know who's this ho kit guy, He's the

685
00:33:10,720 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 2: guy that delivers crazy post fight interviews. Here's one of

686
00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:15,200
Speaker 2: his classics.

687
00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 8: Or Kamala Harris and Joe Biden and Barack Obama.

688
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: It is disgraceful.

689
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 2: I'm here to bring justice to.

690
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 5: The heavyweight division.

691
00:33:27,120 --> 00:33:28,560
Speaker 8: And I'm gonna wipe you guys.

692
00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:29,520
Speaker 2: Out one by one.

693
00:33:30,280 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 8: Mark my words and PS. Michelle Obama is a man.

694
00:33:40,000 --> 00:33:41,960
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, all right?

695
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 1: You can tell he reads books.

696
00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:45,760
Speaker 3: Will you be.

697
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:48,680
Speaker 2: Cheering for him to get KOed more aggressively than you did?

698
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 2: Greg Hardy? Or Am I going too far here?

699
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:52,760
Speaker 1: No? I mean I don't care one way or the other.

700
00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 1: His opponent, Matt I don't know how you pronounced the

701
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:59,920
Speaker 1: Portuguese version of this Max gumenis Jiminie. I'm not sure,

702
00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,640
Speaker 1: damn tho. Okay, yeah, you know, he seems like he's

703
00:34:03,680 --> 00:34:06,440
Speaker 1: got some big power, but might be overwhelmed. Hook It wrestled,

704
00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 1: I believe wrestled at Virginia Tech, so you know that's

705
00:34:10,920 --> 00:34:14,120
Speaker 1: a good program's division one. He's got some skills. I mean,

706
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: not on the microphone and certainly you know, not in

707
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,960
Speaker 1: place much else, but he can wrestle, he can fight.

708
00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,320
Speaker 1: I'd be surprised if you lost here.

709
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 4: You know.

710
00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:24,920
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, we'll see if he's the future of

711
00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 2: this weight class. Luke, what else are you? Yeah? It

712
00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 2: is wide open here are there? Is there anything else

713
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 2: on this card? Including Tscha Pennington's still at it? What

714
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:35,399
Speaker 2: are you into on this card?

715
00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tischa Pennington's kind of an interesting one here, bc uh.

716
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,360
Speaker 1: We've talked about most of the ones that I care about.

717
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:45,640
Speaker 1: I think Marco Tuleyo versus Christian Leroy Duncan that could

718
00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 1: be a fun little scrap depending on how it goes.

719
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,920
Speaker 1: Tisa Pennington, Denise Gomez, It's okay. It's a decent one.

720
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:55,719
Speaker 1: Probably the only other one I would point to you

721
00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,160
Speaker 1: long on Luke, correct me if I'm wrong. Are you

722
00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,800
Speaker 1: into the Miles Johns, Daniel Marcos fight, Daniel Marcos seventeen

723
00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:03,840
Speaker 1: and one kind of an interesting guy on the rise?

724
00:35:04,560 --> 00:35:06,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Daniel Marcos is good. Did you guys

725
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,600
Speaker 4: mention Christian Leroy Duncan, Marco.

726
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 1: Tulio, Yeah, yeah, I just said it literally.

727
00:35:11,120 --> 00:35:12,839
Speaker 4: Sorry, I was going through shit. I was going through shit.

728
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:14,799
Speaker 4: I did just message you that Josh Hockett went to

729
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:16,120
Speaker 4: Fresno State, not.

730
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:17,879
Speaker 1: Fresno States, because why did I say Virginia Tech?

731
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,360
Speaker 4: Hey, I was looking up shit, I was doing it.

732
00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 2: You were thinking of that weird thing on the side

733
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 2: of Frank Biemer's faceless. I know you were, you know,

734
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:25,640
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, uh dude.

735
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 4: To be honest, this card is a lot better than

736
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:30,560
Speaker 4: last weekend's card, but that's still not saying much. There's

737
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:33,360
Speaker 4: really you know, it's slim pickens here exactly.

00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:20,400
Speaker 2: for the Total Base five Gunlimited plan for new subscribers

775
00:37:20,440 --> 00:37:22,800
Speaker 2: applies only the monthly right for your plan. Additional terms apply.

776
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:28,760
Speaker 2: Say the website for more details. All right, okay, bettime,

777
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 2: let's go to topic number two. Dana White broke the

778
00:37:32,680 --> 00:37:37,279
Speaker 2: silence on the Isaac Dulgarian UFC betting scandal when he

779
00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 2: joined TMC Sports earlier this week. He also joined Jim

780
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 2: Romes radio show yesterday to continue some of those same thoughts, revealing,

781
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:51,200
Speaker 2: of course, that he interrogated Isaac Dulgarian during the day

782
00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 2: before that fight card and then immediately called the FBI

783
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:59,520
Speaker 2: after the first round finish went the way it did,

784
00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,480
Speaker 2: exactly the way that the line moved. Let's throw first

785
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,839
Speaker 2: to a clip, then we'll get LT's reaction. Here's Dana

786
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 2: White talking about the timeline of what went down in

787
00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,840
Speaker 2: last Saturday's fight night scandal.

788
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,840
Speaker 9: Probably about one o'clock that day. We're with a company

789
00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:19,000
Speaker 9: called IC three sixty and they are the best bet

790
00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 9: monitoring company in the business, and they reached out to

791
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:25,440
Speaker 9: us and they told us that there was some unusual

792
00:38:26,080 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 9: action going on with that fight. Do we know anything?

793
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 2: You know?

794
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 9: We didn't. So what we did was we called the

795
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:38,120
Speaker 9: fighter and his lawyer and said, what's going on. There's

796
00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,479
Speaker 9: some weird action going on in your bet. We're betting

797
00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 9: action going on in your fight? Are you are you injured?

798
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,560
Speaker 9: Do you owe anybody money? Has anybody approached you to

799
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 9: you know? And the kid said no, absolutely not, I'm

800
00:38:53,320 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 9: gonna kill this guy. And you know, so we said, Okay,

801
00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:04,359
Speaker 9: the fight plays out and uh first round finish by

802
00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:08,160
Speaker 9: rear naked choke. Literally the first thing we did was

803
00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 9: called the FBI.

804
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,319
Speaker 2: Dana would tell Jim Rome yesterday that the FBI is

805
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:17,200
Speaker 2: doing an investigation, not the UFC moving forward. So, Luke,

806
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:19,799
Speaker 2: in light of what we heard from Dana, in light

807
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:23,360
Speaker 2: of the reporting that continues to go on around this story,

808
00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:25,440
Speaker 2: whether you believe what we're hearing from Harry Mack on

809
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:28,719
Speaker 2: Twitter or what Ariel Hawane has been breaking down, do

810
00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 2: you feel like this is an isolated incident that the

811
00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:34,200
Speaker 2: UFC will be able to put behind them with FBI

812
00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,320
Speaker 2: control or is this just the tip of the iceberg

813
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 2: for basically what you would guess to be the UFC's

814
00:39:40,120 --> 00:39:42,719
Speaker 2: worst nightmare at the moment in terms of a fight

815
00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 2: fixing scandal.

816
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,560
Speaker 1: I would say that it's a good idea for anyone

817
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:57,160
Speaker 1: out there to very much trust the reporting of Aeriel Hawane.

818
00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 1: You know this, people are will have various opinions about

819
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,040
Speaker 1: his show or him or whatever, putting that all to

820
00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 1: the side. If I've worked with the guy and I

821
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,480
Speaker 1: watched his methods, and I'm telling you, if he's reporting it,

822
00:40:09,480 --> 00:40:12,760
Speaker 1: it's true. The guy has been involved in the sport

823
00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: for twenty years. I don't think I've ever seen him

824
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:17,200
Speaker 1: have to retract the story, not once. And it's just

825
00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,960
Speaker 1: his record on this is as basically as good as

826
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:24,319
Speaker 1: it gets. So whatever he is saying is absolutely worth

827
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:27,680
Speaker 1: taking seriously. I know, obviously there's journalist Harry mackout there

828
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 1: who's doing a lot of interesting reporting as well. I mean,

829
00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,360
Speaker 1: I don't want to say that he's unreliable because I

830
00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,560
Speaker 1: don't know that that's true. I know that he initially

831
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,080
Speaker 1: had said, you know X or factory X was rated

832
00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:39,439
Speaker 1: and then kind of said, well, it wasn't a raid,

833
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 1: So I don't really know what to make of some

834
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,200
Speaker 1: of that reporting, I think, is what I would say.

835
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:45,319
Speaker 1: I'm waiting to see, you know, what else is out there.

836
00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:46,799
Speaker 1: If anyone has a tip, by the way, you can

837
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 1: email me Luke Thomas news at gmail dot com. But

838
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 1: just the tip, just yeah, just the just the tip.

839
00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:54,799
Speaker 1: You know, that's the only kind of thing I'm interested in.

840
00:40:55,280 --> 00:40:58,920
Speaker 1: But the reality is, we see if what Ariel was

841
00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: saying is true, and I I would very much accept it,

842
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 1: it has to be a lot more. I mean, we

843
00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:08,120
Speaker 1: had fighters coming out and saying and then they've tried

844
00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:09,880
Speaker 1: to walk it back and say, oh, no, I was joking,

845
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:12,040
Speaker 1: but they had kind of indicated people had approached them

846
00:41:12,400 --> 00:41:14,240
Speaker 1: to throw it. I had people reach out to me privately,

847
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:15,800
Speaker 1: fighters reach out to me privately, be like, yeah, I

848
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:17,840
Speaker 1: definitely had people offer to me, not just in UFC,

849
00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:20,080
Speaker 1: by the way, but in other places too. I mean,

850
00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 1: by the way, no one's talking about this PC, but like,

851
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,360
Speaker 1: do we think that this is not happening in PFL,

852
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, no one's paying attention,

853
00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 1: But why would they be exempt from any of the

854
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: same kinds of pressures. But getting back to the question,

855
00:41:35,480 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 1: it is hard to know exactly how often it's happening

856
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 1: happening excuse me, but it's happening enough where it just

857
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: seems like it's an almost sort of semi normal ish

858
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:54,680
Speaker 1: thing that's happening to fighters to at least be propositioned

859
00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: for these offers, and that's enough of a problem where

860
00:41:59,160 --> 00:42:02,000
Speaker 1: it seems like I don't know what's going to happen

861
00:42:02,080 --> 00:42:06,319
Speaker 1: to Dulgarian, but I would be very very surprised if

862
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:09,480
Speaker 1: it stops at him. Seems to me like the problem is,

863
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:15,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess much more pervasive, and the FBI really

864
00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:18,359
Speaker 1: needs to do something about it to restore confidence in

865
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 1: product integrity.

866
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:22,840
Speaker 2: Right because the timing is poor considering the NBA betting

867
00:42:22,880 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 2: scandal that's breaking out right now involving Damon Jones, Terry Roseier,

868
00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:29,399
Speaker 2: Chauncey Billups, and I think you mentioned a very key

869
00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,880
Speaker 2: part of this. We had a group of fighters initially

870
00:42:31,920 --> 00:42:37,080
Speaker 2: after this Dulgarian scandal started, including Vanessa Demopolist, what was it,

871
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 2: Vince Morales, who else, Luke land Landovada.

872
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 1: Pele may have been joking. He may have been joking, but.

873
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 2: They all came out and said, yeah, it happened to me.

874
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 2: I've been solicited before, and then they all kind of

875
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:54,719
Speaker 2: out of nowhere aggressively retracted it, saying it was a joke.

876
00:42:55,000 --> 00:42:57,360
Speaker 2: Here's Dana White in that same TMZ interview with a

877
00:42:57,400 --> 00:42:59,840
Speaker 2: quick reaction to exactly that, you know.

878
00:43:00,000 --> 00:43:01,840
Speaker 9: You're seeing things out on the internet where like fighters

879
00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:04,319
Speaker 9: are coming out and going, oh, I was approached. I

880
00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:08,799
Speaker 9: was approached. Really, why didn't you tell us that? Or

881
00:43:08,800 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 9: more portly, why didn't you tell law enforcement that you

882
00:43:10,880 --> 00:43:13,920
Speaker 9: are approached? Now now you're saying that you were approached.

883
00:43:14,040 --> 00:43:17,200
Speaker 9: It's like if somebody comes up and says, hey, I

884
00:43:17,239 --> 00:43:19,160
Speaker 9: want you to rob a bank. I'm going to rob banks.

885
00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:21,839
Speaker 9: Want to rob a bank with me? Uh, and you don't,

886
00:43:22,360 --> 00:43:24,640
Speaker 9: but you're not gonna You're not gonna tell law enforcement.

887
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 9: They're gonna be approached now by the FBI.

888
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,880
Speaker 2: That's fucking illegal. Luke Thomas, what really happened here with

889
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 2: this whole I would know I was just joking.

890
00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:38,759
Speaker 1: Thing, Well, I don't I Landovernada did seem like there

891
00:43:38,880 --> 00:43:40,640
Speaker 1: was a chance he was joking. I'd like to give

892
00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 1: him the benefit of the doubt. I've I've known him

893
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,239
Speaker 1: to be a straight shooter for most of my time

894
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 1: interacting with him, So maybe he was. But you know,

895
00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:51,040
Speaker 1: the other ones have said that. I again, I had

896
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:52,520
Speaker 1: a fighter reach out to me and tell me that

897
00:43:52,560 --> 00:43:55,520
Speaker 1: it happened to them. You know, So these are anecdotal,

898
00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,640
Speaker 1: It's not You cannot survey the landscape with this kind

899
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: of thing, and that generally is going to make obviously

900
00:44:01,080 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 1: what we're saying to be very careful about what the

901
00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,719
Speaker 1: reality is here. But you know, Dan is asking like,

902
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:08,839
Speaker 1: why wouldn't the fighters, Why wouldn't the fighters speak to him? Well,

903
00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 1: I mean I would have. I have a couple of

904
00:44:10,120 --> 00:44:16,640
Speaker 1: theories about that. The first one is on a basic

905
00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,200
Speaker 1: level b C. Like there's just a general culture of

906
00:44:19,200 --> 00:44:21,480
Speaker 1: secrecy in the sport. A lot of things like what

907
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:23,160
Speaker 1: happens in the gym stays in the gym, kind of

908
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 1: like they say it's about sparring, but it's a lot

909
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:27,960
Speaker 1: about a lot of things, Like fighters might talk amongst themselves,

910
00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:30,320
Speaker 1: but in terms of like building a bridge to media

911
00:44:30,480 --> 00:44:32,560
Speaker 1: or in outside parties, a lot of that stuff just

912
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,560
Speaker 1: sort of stays closely contained too. Again, I don't know

913
00:44:35,600 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 1: how how this Again it's not every fighter, but it

914
00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:41,520
Speaker 1: seems like a certain classifighter gets affected by this, they

915
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,279
Speaker 1: get preyed upon essentially, you know, I don't I don't

916
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 1: know how pervasive it is, but I'm just sort of

917
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,719
Speaker 1: pointing out why would they look why would they look

918
00:44:50,719 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 1: at the UFC as like the answer to their problems?

919
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,200
Speaker 1: It seems like with the UFC views is that like, hey,

920
00:44:56,520 --> 00:45:00,720
Speaker 1: we're going to iron out your uniform policy and that'll

921
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 1: make you know, getting sponsors, you know, have to chase

922
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,080
Speaker 1: sponsors down. We'll take care of that for you. We're

923
00:45:05,120 --> 00:45:06,920
Speaker 1: gonna give you some exit insurance. We'll take care of

924
00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:08,919
Speaker 1: that for you. We're gonna give you a PI, We'll

925
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 1: take care of that for you. And I think that

926
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:13,160
Speaker 1: they kind of see that as like, hey, we we

927
00:45:13,080 --> 00:45:15,279
Speaker 1: we really have your best interest in mind. We can

928
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:17,239
Speaker 1: take care of those things. But I think if you

929
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: talk to fighters privately, they don't necessarily not that like

930
00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:22,000
Speaker 1: the UFC doesn't do anything for them, but they don't

931
00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,799
Speaker 1: necessarily like look at them as like, oh, they they

932
00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,440
Speaker 1: are the people I would go to to really confide

933
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,080
Speaker 1: in something very serious. More to the point, we see,

934
00:45:30,800 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 1: we don't know who's offering these fighters to do these things.

935
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,440
Speaker 1: Are they dangerous people or are they just you know, degenerates.

936
00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 1: I don't know, we don't know, We have no idea,

937
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 1: but I can just imagine that they're like, if you're

938
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:44,960
Speaker 1: the UFC and you know this has been kind of

939
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,760
Speaker 1: kept from you by the fighters, not by like some plan,

940
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 1: but just to happen that way, you have to ask yourself, like,

941
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,440
Speaker 1: what kinds of lines of communication do you actually have

942
00:45:54,600 --> 00:45:55,240
Speaker 1: with your talent?

943
00:45:56,200 --> 00:45:58,640
Speaker 2: I'm with you on that, Dana. Here's a tweet a

944
00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,239
Speaker 2: quote tweet of what Dana gave us. A message to

945
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:05,279
Speaker 2: any fighter that wants to consider fixing moving forward, he says, quote,

946
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:08,560
Speaker 2: I've been very vocal, very open about this. We will

947
00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:11,759
Speaker 2: be your worst enemy. We will immediately go after you,

948
00:46:11,800 --> 00:46:14,279
Speaker 2: guns blazing with the FBI and whoever else we need

949
00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:16,600
Speaker 2: to get, and we will do everything we can to

950
00:46:16,719 --> 00:46:21,320
Speaker 2: make sure you go to prison. End quote Luke. In hindsight,

951
00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 2: should the UFC have called off that Dulgarian fight because

952
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 2: of the aggressive line movement or was it enough in

953
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,760
Speaker 2: your eyes to talk to a fighter? According to Dana,

954
00:46:33,120 --> 00:46:36,720
Speaker 2: both Dulgarian and his lawyer said, we don't know any money,

955
00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,120
Speaker 2: any money to anybody. We have no enemies, we have

956
00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:43,360
Speaker 2: no injuries. We're gonna kill that kid. In hindsight, should

957
00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:45,319
Speaker 2: they have just pulled that fight and not even taken the.

958
00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:49,359
Speaker 1: Chance we interrogate that? His lawyer said that, what does

959
00:46:49,400 --> 00:46:49,879
Speaker 1: that mean?

960
00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,440
Speaker 2: How is it he is a manager? Manage?

961
00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 1: Yeah? Because this is that's what I was thinking, which

962
00:46:54,719 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 1: is again his manager might have like power of attorney

963
00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:01,839
Speaker 1: or something. But when we say like lawyer or who

964
00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:04,560
Speaker 1: is this? Who is this lawyer? I mean if I

965
00:47:04,640 --> 00:47:07,759
Speaker 1: was representing Dulgarian and I was his legal counsel, maybe

966
00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 1: I wouldn't say anything, but I would. I would. It

967
00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:14,200
Speaker 1: would be known who the person was to field these questions, right,

968
00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 1: This would be the person representing them. This person has

969
00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 1: never been identified. I think he's just talking about his manager.

970
00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 1: I can't say that with full certainty, but I'm it's

971
00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:23,560
Speaker 1: just weird to be like, oh, it's lawyer, as if

972
00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,560
Speaker 1: it's like a third party. Doesn't doesn't really mean that.

973
00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,040
Speaker 1: What was sorry to see was the first part of

974
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:29,040
Speaker 1: that question. I apologize.

975
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 2: Really, do you think they should have pulled that fight? Yes,

976
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:33,719
Speaker 2: because of the suspicious nature of the betting.

977
00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,600
Speaker 1: Of course they should have. Now, I the question is not, Hey,

978
00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,840
Speaker 1: anytime I see three sixty goes to you with some

979
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,000
Speaker 1: kind of indication about betting that caught their attention, do

980
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,239
Speaker 1: you automatically have to pull about Maybe that is a

981
00:47:45,280 --> 00:47:48,640
Speaker 1: little bit too much, but the amount that the Dulgarian

982
00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:50,840
Speaker 1: fight moved, which was like a full dollar amount in

983
00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,359
Speaker 1: terms of switching at the last minute, that was so

984
00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 1: overwhelming that here's the problem, right, Ay, it was enough

985
00:47:57,080 --> 00:47:59,360
Speaker 1: of a movement where it's like a very clear threshold

986
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: to be like this one so suspicious that it's probably

987
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,040
Speaker 1: a good idea to just get on the other side

988
00:48:04,040 --> 00:48:06,319
Speaker 1: of this and figure it out later. More to the

989
00:48:06,320 --> 00:48:10,080
Speaker 1: point BC, again, we don't know if Dulgarian actually committed

990
00:48:10,080 --> 00:48:12,719
Speaker 1: a crime. It is certainly still very much possible.

991
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:16,120
Speaker 2: They have donks. There's donks all over this game, Luke's

992
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:17,920
Speaker 2: sonks exactly.

993
00:48:18,040 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 1: He could just be a donk. We really don't know.

994
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:22,360
Speaker 1: So the point I'm trying to make is that is

995
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:24,840
Speaker 1: still possible. But of course the other possibility is that

996
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 1: he did commit a crime, which means the UFC was

997
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,719
Speaker 1: given advance warning that this could happen and then still

998
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,080
Speaker 1: let it go. There is some culpability to be shared

999
00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:36,600
Speaker 1: in a situation like that. The point of I three sixty.

1000
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,480
Speaker 1: And they do this stuff not just for UFC, for

1001
00:48:39,560 --> 00:48:43,120
Speaker 1: every league, for NFL, for NHL, for you name it.

1002
00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:46,120
Speaker 1: They do it for everybody. It's they're like, hey, this

1003
00:48:46,200 --> 00:48:50,520
Speaker 1: is this is extra suspicious. I believe going forward that

1004
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:54,840
Speaker 1: again they can define some rules around this PC but

1005
00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:57,399
Speaker 1: as a general rule, if IC three to sixty comes

1006
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,439
Speaker 1: to you ahead of time with the same day late

1007
00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 1: notice major fight movement. It is, dude, how essential was

1008
00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:07,799
Speaker 1: that bout to that card? It was not essential at all.

1009
00:49:07,840 --> 00:49:09,799
Speaker 1: You could remove it and people would not have known

1010
00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:14,000
Speaker 1: the difference in any way, Stop the fight before it starts,

1011
00:49:14,160 --> 00:49:16,600
Speaker 1: remove your own culpability from it, and I think the

1012
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,520
Speaker 1: UFC would be looking a lot better. I mean, and

1013
00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: not to say that this is one hundred percent their fault,

1014
00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 1: That's not what I'm saying, but to the extent that

1015
00:49:22,680 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 1: they do have culpability, they could have really minimized it

1016
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 1: with a little bit more foresight. And I think there

1017
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:31,000
Speaker 1: was indications given this week that going forward, I think

1018
00:49:31,000 --> 00:49:33,160
Speaker 1: they're going to adhere to that practice a lot more.

1019
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would guess they would have to here. I mean,

1020
00:49:35,280 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 2: they already survived one bullet with the James Cross scandal

1021
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 2: with Derek Derek, Mike.

1022
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:43,400
Speaker 1: Mayner, right, I think it's Minner, Derek.

1023
00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:47,239
Speaker 2: Minner, Jeff Molina, you know, loosely or greatly associated with

1024
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:50,880
Speaker 2: that whatever. This is interesting. We did have the coach

1025
00:49:51,000 --> 00:49:54,760
Speaker 2: of Factory X, Mark Montoya, the trainer of Isaac Dulgarian. Obviously,

1026
00:49:54,760 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 2: we haven't heard from Dulgarian publicly, but here was Mark

1027
00:49:57,840 --> 00:50:00,360
Speaker 2: Montoya on the Ariel Hawani to show this. We to

1028
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:03,440
Speaker 2: talk about the greater impact of this scandal on him

1029
00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:06,080
Speaker 2: his gym, and you know, everything going on here.

1030
00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:11,520
Speaker 10: I'm here because I want to first and foremost just

1031
00:50:11,680 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 10: make sure that we clear the air. You know, my

1032
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,560
Speaker 10: my gym is being attacked, my integrity is being attacked,

1033
00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,560
Speaker 10: and I just want to first and foremost say we've

1034
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,600
Speaker 10: we have nothing to do with any of these allegations

1035
00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:28,880
Speaker 10: that are being brought upon us. People have asked me

1036
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 10: what my opinions are. To speculate right now is not

1037
00:50:31,800 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 10: my job. You know, My job is to right now

1038
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 10: continue to lead and not react. And with that said,

1039
00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,120
Speaker 10: you know, we we as a as a team. Myself,

1040
00:50:43,160 --> 00:50:46,479
Speaker 10: as a person, I've never been involved in any type

1041
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:50,480
Speaker 10: of betting format. I've actually never even placed the sports

1042
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 10: bet in my entire life.

1043
00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:52,680
Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you how to do it.

1044
00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:55,520
Speaker 10: And so you know, my job has always been to

1045
00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 10: train these guys to fight and win, train these guys

1046
00:50:59,600 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 10: to in life.

1047
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:01,960
Speaker 1: And those are my two jobs.

1048
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:05,040
Speaker 10: And so you know I take that very seriously, and

1049
00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 10: you know, this is my life's work, and you can

1050
00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:12,040
Speaker 10: bet your ass that I would never for any sort

1051
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:17,560
Speaker 10: of money, I would never sell my integrity or my word,

1052
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 10: because in life, that's all you have.

1053
00:51:19,120 --> 00:51:21,799
Speaker 1: You have one thing. All these worldly things that we

1054
00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 1: look at, the.

1055
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:27,280
Speaker 10: Cars, the houses, the money, all those things, those are worldly,

1056
00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 10: man made things. And you know, we go and we

1057
00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 10: leave ourselves with one thing when we leave this earth,

1058
00:51:32,800 --> 00:51:35,360
Speaker 10: and that's our integrity and our word. And you couldn't

1059
00:51:35,400 --> 00:51:39,200
Speaker 10: pay me any amount of money to get rid of that.

1060
00:51:39,440 --> 00:51:41,120
Speaker 1: And so I just want.

1061
00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:43,600
Speaker 10: To start by saying that it's a very unfortunate situation.

1062
00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:48,640
Speaker 10: It's still unfolding, and you know, I just I'm just

1063
00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:49,759
Speaker 10: not here to speculate.

1064
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:50,919
Speaker 1: I'm here to speak fact.

1065
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,040
Speaker 2: I mean, look, if I'm the UFC moving forward, I

1066
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,879
Speaker 2: don't call cash in the FBI you want this cleaned up,

1067
00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 2: I call too, to who the man who has his

1068
00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:05,680
Speaker 2: own portion of the jail named after him?

1069
00:52:06,680 --> 00:52:09,719
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you can do that too.

1070
00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:12,200
Speaker 2: H E is him Luke?

1071
00:52:12,280 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 5: You know?

1072
00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:19,719
Speaker 1: Ye? Yeah, yeah, yeah, man. I mean, I don't know

1073
00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:22,520
Speaker 1: what's happened at Factory X. I don't know what the

1074
00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:28,200
Speaker 1: situation is. I'll just say if what's been suggested is true,

1075
00:52:28,239 --> 00:52:30,759
Speaker 1: then they're gonna have a lot to deal with if

1076
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:35,400
Speaker 1: it's not. I mean, they might have some legal options

1077
00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:38,520
Speaker 1: about how they can move forward about what's been said

1078
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:41,919
Speaker 1: about their gym. So this is a this is a dude.

1079
00:52:41,960 --> 00:52:46,440
Speaker 1: It's the strange. It's a strange situation. It really really is.

1080
00:52:46,480 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 1: I don't know what to say about it except stay tuned.

1081
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 2: Man to close on this, Luke. You know, I've seen

1082
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 2: some writing from Kidnaid and Zach Arnold and the mm

1083
00:52:54,520 --> 00:52:57,440
Speaker 2: draw about how dangerous a scandal like this is, and

1084
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:01,400
Speaker 2: I don't disagree when you consider such a large portion

1085
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:05,000
Speaker 2: of the audience for fight, nice warehouse cards, you know,

1086
00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:09,440
Speaker 2: are betting. How does how could this get worse? Is

1087
00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,080
Speaker 2: there a scenario where you're no longer going to be

1088
00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,040
Speaker 2: allowed to bet on these fights? Or will the UFC

1089
00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 2: and the FBI make sure that never gets that well?

1090
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,319
Speaker 1: I mean it's hard to say. I think partly what

1091
00:53:18,360 --> 00:53:21,319
Speaker 1: we just indicated was some of these pre fight ICE

1092
00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,400
Speaker 1: three sixty flags I think are going to start carrying

1093
00:53:23,440 --> 00:53:26,720
Speaker 1: a lot more weight. That might solve an enormous amount

1094
00:53:26,760 --> 00:53:29,200
Speaker 1: of problems. Again, because we don't really know the extent,

1095
00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:31,959
Speaker 1: but potentially that could be quite useful. I think something

1096
00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 1: else to keep in mind, though, BC is you know,

1097
00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:35,840
Speaker 1: we haven't even had a conversation here about what it

1098
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,759
Speaker 1: means for judges and referees in a year where some

1099
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:40,600
Speaker 1: of that has been crazy. And I know there's been

1100
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:44,840
Speaker 1: some suggestions about, you know, what X or y referee

1101
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:47,799
Speaker 1: has done, but we don't really have enough information to

1102
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,000
Speaker 1: say exactly what the truth is. Again, some of the

1103
00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 1: stuff needs to be investigated by the proper authorities, and

1104
00:53:52,320 --> 00:53:53,920
Speaker 1: I guess we'll just have to be patient and see.

1105
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,520
Speaker 1: But that I think is still potentially a problem that

1106
00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:01,440
Speaker 1: we'll need to get least some answers on. And you know,

1107
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:06,280
Speaker 1: I don't know what happens to the future of sports betting.

1108
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:08,040
Speaker 1: I've seen that, you know, because of the NBA scandal.

1109
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:10,560
Speaker 1: I've seen some suggestions because like people have said, oh,

1110
00:54:10,600 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: the MMA scandal is the same as the NBA one,

1111
00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:16,600
Speaker 1: but they're actually quite different. The Terry Rogier was accused

1112
00:54:16,640 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 1: of like, you know, messing with people's prop bets, not

1113
00:54:19,520 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 1: turning over game results by you know, this continuous effort

1114
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,759
Speaker 1: the whole way through to like sabotage or whatever in

1115
00:54:25,800 --> 00:54:28,520
Speaker 1: terms of games, whereas in the in the MMA case,

1116
00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:31,400
Speaker 1: there's a situation where it's like, hey, are the total

1117
00:54:31,400 --> 00:54:32,360
Speaker 1: fights being fixed?

1118
00:54:32,400 --> 00:54:32,480
Speaker 11: Right?

1119
00:54:32,560 --> 00:54:37,080
Speaker 1: It's a very different, which I think, honestly somewhat more

1120
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 1: substantive problem, least in terms of what they're attempting at

1121
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:42,279
Speaker 1: a bare minimum. You know, could there be an end

1122
00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:43,800
Speaker 1: to prop betting or something like that? I really have

1123
00:54:43,880 --> 00:54:47,560
Speaker 1: no idea. Again, this is the other part too, BC.

1124
00:54:48,280 --> 00:54:50,280
Speaker 1: How do we know this is not happening in PFL?

1125
00:54:51,000 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 1: How do we know this is not happening in boxing?

1126
00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 1: Is anyone really looking into it with the same kind

1127
00:54:56,160 --> 00:55:00,719
Speaker 1: of you know, laser focus that you're seeing in these situations.

1128
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:04,600
Speaker 1: This is a process both in MMA and I think

1129
00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:08,279
Speaker 1: more broadly in sports that's gonna unfold and we're gonna

1130
00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:08,960
Speaker 1: have to see what happens.

1131
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,719
Speaker 2: I mean, there's levels to things. You know, there was

1132
00:55:11,840 --> 00:55:16,239
Speaker 2: speculation here. That's that sixteen million dollars moved with the

1133
00:55:16,280 --> 00:55:19,920
Speaker 2: line switches for this Dulgarian fight and the large amount

1134
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,840
Speaker 2: of bets that were placed. Maybe it happens on like

1135
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:26,640
Speaker 2: much smaller levels in boxing or PFL in those other situations.

1136
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:29,440
Speaker 2: But like when that much amount of money for a

1137
00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:33,240
Speaker 2: fight of this little significance, when those two things come together,

1138
00:55:33,320 --> 00:55:37,560
Speaker 2: that's when it's gonna raise those flags and lead to this. Yeah,

1139
00:55:37,600 --> 00:55:39,120
Speaker 2: we'll see where it goes here. Let's go on to

1140
00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:42,280
Speaker 2: topic number three. H John Jones took off his comedic

1141
00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:44,759
Speaker 2: eye patch and came out of hiding this week to

1142
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:48,920
Speaker 2: appear on something called the No Scripts podcast, where he

1143
00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,040
Speaker 2: proceeded to take a squad on Tom Aspinall like that

1144
00:55:52,280 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 2: gross episode of Oz, calling Aspinall everything from a one

1145
00:55:56,719 --> 00:56:00,840
Speaker 2: trick pony to overrated to a quitter. In fact, his

1146
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:03,920
Speaker 2: comments were so spicy. Yeah, you already knew it. We

1147
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:07,040
Speaker 2: called up our friends at Quervo for something we like

1148
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:16,440
Speaker 2: to call shots fire, and of course shots Fired brought

1149
00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:18,200
Speaker 2: to you by Cuervo. Now is a good time to

1150
00:56:18,440 --> 00:56:22,000
Speaker 2: enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. We got a couple

1151
00:56:22,080 --> 00:56:25,640
Speaker 2: pieces of sound here surrounding Jones. Here's the first one

1152
00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:30,480
Speaker 2: as he breaks down Aspinall's nearly one round no contest

1153
00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:35,480
Speaker 2: against Cyril Gon or Cereal Gain at UFC three twenty one.

1154
00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,200
Speaker 12: Talk to me about what you saw in his fight

1155
00:56:37,200 --> 00:56:38,840
Speaker 12: with Dynamy, because God looked like he was controlling the

1156
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:39,839
Speaker 12: fight with Cerril Gone.

1157
00:56:40,000 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 11: Yeah, Tom's a great athlete, but I do feel like

1158
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,719
Speaker 11: he's a one trick pony. I believe that his wrestling

1159
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:47,800
Speaker 11: in jiu jitsu is incredibly overrated. He has a beautiful

1160
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:49,360
Speaker 11: one two. I got to learn a lot about his

1161
00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:52,120
Speaker 11: patterns in his last fight. That's really about it. That's

1162
00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:54,040
Speaker 11: the one thing that he's setting up real nice. He

1163
00:56:54,080 --> 00:56:56,560
Speaker 11: couldn't touch cerial Gain at all. That's the way I felt.

1164
00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,280
Speaker 11: I felt like Gain was just getting warmed up. Gaine's

1165
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:02,680
Speaker 11: hands was done. He's shaking, his shoulders, bunted around.

1166
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,359
Speaker 1: He was so he busted him open.

1167
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:07,600
Speaker 11: He was so comfortable.

1168
00:57:07,640 --> 00:57:08,960
Speaker 13: I think Tom was looking for a way out and

1169
00:57:08,960 --> 00:57:11,520
Speaker 13: he took it. He needs to change his game long.

1170
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 2: I look at you. Also play the one about quitter

1171
00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,240
Speaker 2: next right now, Thank you Tom.

1172
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:22,439
Speaker 11: When when Tom gets hurt, it's like he's like immediately incapacitated,

1173
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:26,000
Speaker 11: immediately shut down. It's like you poked my eye and

1174
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:28,040
Speaker 11: then he's like immediately, there was no like.

1175
00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:29,840
Speaker 13: He never tried to look. It was rag on the

1176
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:31,000
Speaker 13: eye immediately.

1177
00:57:31,240 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 11: The silliest looking cat on National TV.

1178
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,440
Speaker 1: He's just trying. He didn't try.

1179
00:57:36,640 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 11: Same thing with Curtis plays when he when he hurt

1180
00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,400
Speaker 11: his knee, there was no limping, there was no trying

1181
00:57:40,440 --> 00:57:43,800
Speaker 11: to get up. It was just like, immediately, yep, burn

1182
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:44,400
Speaker 11: my village.

1183
00:57:44,440 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 1: I can't go on.

1184
00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:47,680
Speaker 13: He doesn't have the dog in him that kill or

1185
00:57:47,760 --> 00:57:48,160
Speaker 13: be killed.

1186
00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:51,720
Speaker 11: Immediately quits. Yeah, when he got tapped out with an

1187
00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:54,000
Speaker 11: ankle lock, there was there was no trying to fight

1188
00:57:54,080 --> 00:57:56,600
Speaker 11: his hands, there were no trying to He immediately quit.

1189
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,000
Speaker 13: You see the pattern immediately, And I said, I noticed

1190
00:57:59,040 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 13: the profile pick change and then you had someone on

1191
00:58:01,080 --> 00:58:03,760
Speaker 13: your horse too, similars that I.

1192
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:05,480
Speaker 1: Was just having fun, having fun with the ipatch, I.

1193
00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,200
Speaker 11: Having phone with it. Yeah, like you know, he had

1194
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:10,040
Speaker 11: at it with me. He had a long time coming

1195
00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:12,880
Speaker 11: at me. So it's just it's to keep the fans engaged.

1196
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,439
Speaker 11: Of course, it's just to keep things fun.

1197
00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 2: So Luke, considering it was only five months ago that

1198
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:23,960
Speaker 2: John Jones retired to despite rumors of generational money being

1199
00:58:24,000 --> 00:58:28,640
Speaker 2: offered to unify Belts against aspinall, did this interview confirm

1200
00:58:29,120 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 2: that Bony just passed Ronda Rousey as the most insufferable

1201
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:36,960
Speaker 2: fighter in UFC history or does he have a point

1202
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:37,920
Speaker 2: with his criticism.

1203
00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I just who cares, bro I mean, I'm

1204
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:41,680
Speaker 1: with the fans on this one. I don't know why

1205
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:46,720
Speaker 1: we're talking about this bullshit? Like, what do you want

1206
00:58:46,720 --> 00:58:48,960
Speaker 1: me to say? I mean, is there something to what

1207
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:53,800
Speaker 1: he says about Tom? Maybe some Yeah, sure Tom does

1208
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,040
Speaker 1: have a nice one too. He's very athletic, but he

1209
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:58,640
Speaker 1: could be overrated relative to the public perceived him. Although

1210
00:58:58,680 --> 00:59:01,640
Speaker 1: that's something that might be crashed. There's something to be

1211
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 1: said for that. But it's like, even if all that

1212
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 1: is true, then why the fuck did you run from him?

1213
00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:08,760
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like it doesn't It's just

1214
00:59:08,800 --> 00:59:11,720
Speaker 1: a really weird situation where it's like, could there be

1215
00:59:11,840 --> 00:59:14,160
Speaker 1: validity to some of the criticisms that John is sharing

1216
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:17,600
Speaker 1: about Tom, particularly in light of the last fight. Of course,

1217
00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:19,360
Speaker 1: of course there could be some truth to that. You know,

1218
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:22,160
Speaker 1: John is a keen observer in general of his opponents,

1219
00:59:23,360 --> 00:59:25,720
Speaker 1: but it doesn't to me. It's like, Dude, the guy

1220
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 1: is clearly he's just an opportunist, you know, He's an

1221
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:38,640
Speaker 1: opportunist and and you know, and I'm not inter I

1222
00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:41,880
Speaker 1: can only speak for myself. I'm not interested in him

1223
00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:44,240
Speaker 1: fighting again. I realized that the fan base will decide that,

1224
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 1: and Daniel will decide that, and it doesn't matter what

1225
00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,560
Speaker 1: I think. I totally get it. But I saw the

1226
00:59:49,560 --> 00:59:51,920
Speaker 1: best of his career, the last part of it has

1227
00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:55,960
Speaker 1: been terrible to sit through. These podcast interviews make it

1228
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:59,680
Speaker 1: even worse. Like if he's gonna fight, fine, I'll wait

1229
00:59:59,720 --> 01:00:02,080
Speaker 1: for that and I'll cover that like anything else, and

1230
01:00:02,160 --> 01:00:05,520
Speaker 1: we'll discuss it at the time. But he I just don't.

1231
01:00:05,600 --> 01:00:07,720
Speaker 1: I just genuinely don't care what he has to say,

1232
01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:09,440
Speaker 1: and it doesn't move me one way or the other.

1233
01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, my response was fuck off after watching this. This

1234
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,480
Speaker 2: is what we call in pro wrestling, go away heat xbox.

1235
01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:17,200
Speaker 2: He like, get off my screen.

1236
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,400
Speaker 1: He yeah, So why is he talking to the microphone

1237
01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:20,760
Speaker 1: like this?

1238
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, at least talk Damon Martin style and like eat it.

1239
01:00:24,400 --> 01:00:27,840
Speaker 1: Luke, Right, just like I talk to the microphone. There

1240
01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:31,080
Speaker 1: should be a fist between your face and the microphone,

1241
01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,800
Speaker 1: not ten feet. Okay, all right, all right.

1242
01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:35,840
Speaker 2: Well John Jones would go on in that interview to

1243
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:38,680
Speaker 2: say he actually took He said it was his fault,

1244
01:00:38,760 --> 01:00:42,840
Speaker 2: how that aspinall thing happened and fell apart, but claims

1245
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:45,360
Speaker 2: that he believes Dana White will we'll turn it around

1246
01:00:45,400 --> 01:00:48,280
Speaker 2: and allow him to fight again. Here's John Jones talking

1247
01:00:48,360 --> 01:00:50,360
Speaker 2: about that potential return.

1248
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:51,400
Speaker 1: It's the big card.

1249
01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:52,880
Speaker 13: You keep talking about that you want to be on

1250
01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:55,600
Speaker 13: a White House card, right, Yeah? Who do you want

1251
01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:56,520
Speaker 13: for that? You want Pereira?

1252
01:00:57,280 --> 01:01:00,440
Speaker 11: I like to fight Alex Pereiro at the White House. Yeah.

1253
01:01:00,600 --> 01:01:03,440
Speaker 11: I feel like he's incredibly respectful. I feel like he's

1254
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:07,680
Speaker 11: a household name in America. In MMA, everybody knows who

1255
01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:10,160
Speaker 11: he is. He's a champion, He's in the conversation of

1256
01:01:10,200 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 11: being one of the greatest fighters of all time. It

1257
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:14,880
Speaker 11: would be a block buster event. I think the whole

1258
01:01:14,880 --> 01:01:17,960
Speaker 11: world will come out. I've beat many Brazilians over the

1259
01:01:18,000 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 11: course of my life. Many it's the people that have

1260
01:01:20,720 --> 01:01:22,640
Speaker 11: beat the most either way, that fight where to go.

1261
01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 11: No one loses in that fight. It generates so many

1262
01:01:26,040 --> 01:01:28,240
Speaker 11: millions for the sport. There's just no losing me. You

1263
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:30,880
Speaker 11: have such high level of people competing and respect each other.

1264
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,160
Speaker 12: And I think too, like when you talk about the

1265
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:37,480
Speaker 12: White House and having the greatest American fighter of all time,

1266
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:38,960
Speaker 12: I mean, how can you have a White House card

1267
01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:42,120
Speaker 12: without literally the go the go. So it's like this

1268
01:01:42,160 --> 01:01:45,320
Speaker 12: is something that can be such a big events, especially

1269
01:01:45,400 --> 01:01:48,720
Speaker 12: with you headlining it, whether it's Perera or if obviously we.

1270
01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:50,160
Speaker 1: Saw what happened with the aspinall fight.

1271
01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:50,760
Speaker 3: Most recently.

1272
01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:54,040
Speaker 2: Look a lot of glau glaw glag going out in

1273
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:57,960
Speaker 2: that interview. I gotta say I took umbradge aggressively with

1274
01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:02,800
Speaker 2: the Pereira is light mark Hey here, by the way,

1275
01:02:02,840 --> 01:02:05,440
Speaker 2: I believe is the only time Tom and John have

1276
01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:09,200
Speaker 2: been seen on camera each other. Let's see how impolite

1277
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 2: Tom was here.

1278
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this thing.

1279
01:02:12,680 --> 01:02:17,120
Speaker 13: I would hop the ri spang all the let's get

1280
01:02:17,160 --> 01:02:17,760
Speaker 13: it face off.

1281
01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:21,400
Speaker 1: No, No, I.

1282
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 11: Was sitting there with them with a face like I

1283
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:25,919
Speaker 11: wasn't scared would be that on the side.

1284
01:02:26,200 --> 01:02:28,400
Speaker 1: I was terrified, terrified.

1285
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:33,960
Speaker 2: Look, how could you be literally the greatest fighter of

1286
01:02:34,000 --> 01:02:37,400
Speaker 2: all time and then be this awful on the other side.

1287
01:02:37,400 --> 01:02:39,160
Speaker 2: And I'm not even talking about the arrests and all that.

1288
01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:43,120
Speaker 2: Bs like just being a damn bitch about this, right,

1289
01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:44,400
Speaker 2: You're like, come on, bro.

1290
01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,680
Speaker 1: Once again, dude, I don't know why we're doing I

1291
01:02:46,800 --> 01:02:48,880
Speaker 1: just don't care. I mean again, if he fights in

1292
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:50,520
Speaker 1: the White House, we'll take a moment to like talk

1293
01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:52,440
Speaker 1: about what that means and blah blah blah, and if

1294
01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:55,720
Speaker 1: it's if it's Tom, if it's if it's Alex. Okay,

1295
01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,280
Speaker 1: when that becomes a relevant thing, that we have to

1296
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,400
Speaker 1: present to the world, then we'll present it to the world.

1297
01:03:01,440 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 1: But as it stands, I like the John Jones podcast

1298
01:03:04,760 --> 01:03:06,720
Speaker 1: or could not be more boring if they tried.

1299
01:03:07,160 --> 01:03:07,560
Speaker 2: Well.

1300
01:03:07,560 --> 01:03:11,479
Speaker 1: Oh at Ishmael Bonfem missed weigh by five pounds. Holy shit,

01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:12,320

01:03:15,440 --> 01:03:18,320
Speaker 2: which recently had bb Net and Yahoo on it, just

1304
01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:21,080
Speaker 2: had Eric Trump on it. And Eric Trump said John

1305
01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 2: Jones has to be on this card, has to Luke.

1306
01:03:25,280 --> 01:03:31,000
Speaker 2: That's cool, has to alrighty then, Hey, speaking of timing, here,

1307
01:03:32,200 --> 01:03:35,400
Speaker 2: now is a good time to remember where tequila's story

1308
01:03:35,480 --> 01:03:38,800
Speaker 2: truly began. Yeah, I'm talking about seventeen ninety five, Quervo

1309
01:03:39,280 --> 01:03:42,360
Speaker 2: invented tequila, and since then, Cuervo has stayed true to

1310
01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:45,600
Speaker 2: its roots, the same family, the same land. Oh yeah,

1311
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:49,000
Speaker 2: you better believe that same passion. Two hundred and thirty

1312
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:53,200
Speaker 2: years later, Quervo is still right here in every pore,

1313
01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:58,240
Speaker 2: in every margarita, in every celebration. So enjoy the tequila

1314
01:03:58,320 --> 01:04:04,520
Speaker 2: that started at all, the tequila that invented tequila. Proxymoquervo

01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:31,680
Speaker 2: BCLT and The Mac Life's Oscar Willis your Yeah, yeah,

1320
01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:36,800
Speaker 2: horn horned up, indeed, luke your expectations of what the

1321
01:04:36,880 --> 01:04:37,960
Speaker 2: three of us can produce.

1322
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:48,080
Speaker 1: My viewers yesterday on the live chat basically surmised that

1323
01:04:48,240 --> 01:04:50,880
Speaker 1: there's a you know what, I actually this is a

1324
01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:54,080
Speaker 1: sponsored segment. I don't want to get I need to

1325
01:04:54,160 --> 01:05:00,400
Speaker 1: be careful. They basically just said, I'll I'll treat it.

1326
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:05,160
Speaker 1: You euphemistically expect the unexpected when Oscar Willis comes into

1327
01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:08,000
Speaker 1: the studio. That's That's the nicest way I can say it,

1328
01:05:08,360 --> 01:05:11,560
Speaker 1: and I think it's probably a pretty fair way to

1329
01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:14,040
Speaker 1: look at the world because Oscar is nothing if not

1330
01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:17,200
Speaker 1: a I mean, this is just the worst person in

1331
01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:21,280
Speaker 1: the world. He's the OA of everything. Dude. Can you

1332
01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:23,760
Speaker 1: imagine his browsing history? Can you imagine such a thing?

1333
01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:26,160
Speaker 2: I call him Oscar Wilde. And by the way, his

1334
01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:28,680
Speaker 2: off the record stories about hanging with Connor that he

1335
01:05:28,760 --> 01:05:30,320
Speaker 2: can't tell people those are the best.

1336
01:05:30,840 --> 01:05:33,280
Speaker 1: Not even just Connor Dude, a lot of other people too.

1337
01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,480
Speaker 1: He's got people ask me like, oh, you know, you

1338
01:05:37,520 --> 01:05:39,040
Speaker 1: know there's a lot of secrecy in the sport. Wait

1339
01:05:39,120 --> 01:05:41,439
Speaker 1: until Oscar does his tell all book. Just do wait,

1340
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:42,400

1346
01:05:56,880 --> 01:05:57,920
Speaker 2: So we'll take your top to be.

1347
01:05:58,000 --> 01:05:59,920
Speaker 1: It's an a card, it's an a car.

1348
01:06:00,080 --> 01:06:03,800
Speaker 2: It's very very, very very good. From the title fights

1349
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,760
Speaker 2: that atop the marquee, to the star power, the depth

1350
01:06:06,960 --> 01:06:10,760
Speaker 2: everything the arena. Let's freaking go with that one, all right.

1351
01:06:10,840 --> 01:06:13,200
Speaker 2: Topic number four. We don't have to linger too long

1352
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 2: on this. You already know Jake Paul Gervonte Davis. It's

1353
01:06:16,680 --> 01:06:21,800
Speaker 2: canceled November fourteenth on Netflix. Since then, we've seen Jake

1354
01:06:22,000 --> 01:06:25,320
Speaker 2: enter a war of war with Francis Nganu. We've seen

1355
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,760
Speaker 2: Jake announce that he's going to postpone his return to

1356
01:06:27,840 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 2: sometime in December, and we've seen everyone from Nate dis

1357
01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:35,040
Speaker 2: jumping out and saying he's accepted the fight. Now, officially,

1358
01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:38,240
Speaker 2: no new opponent has been announced, but the fallout of

1359
01:06:38,320 --> 01:06:41,240
Speaker 2: this announcement did create a mini debate as to whether

1360
01:06:41,360 --> 01:06:45,240
Speaker 2: the civil lawsuit pending against Tank for domestic violas violence

1361
01:06:45,400 --> 01:06:48,440
Speaker 2: was actually the reason why the fight was sacked, with

1362
01:06:48,560 --> 01:06:52,720
Speaker 2: critics calling out Paul's virtue signaling of saying the fight

1363
01:06:52,840 --> 01:06:56,280
Speaker 2: isn't happening because he runs a female first boxing promotion.

1364
01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,200
Speaker 2: Look quickly on this, how much of a role do

1365
01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:03,720
Speaker 2: you believe the actual poor ticket sales, not to mention

1366
01:07:03,880 --> 01:07:07,400
Speaker 2: the apathy for this fight in the boxing world played

1367
01:07:07,920 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 2: in this fight getting canceled, and we can throw up

1368
01:07:10,360 --> 01:07:14,120
Speaker 2: the This was the ticket Master seat map as recently

1369
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:17,600
Speaker 2: as October twenty eighth. Those blue seats are the ones

1370
01:07:17,680 --> 01:07:20,720
Speaker 2: that were still available. Do you believe the narrative here?

1371
01:07:22,040 --> 01:07:22,200
Speaker 5: Uh?

1372
01:07:23,600 --> 01:07:26,400
Speaker 1: No, I mean it's obviously a stupid pretext. I mean,

1373
01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:30,200
Speaker 1: I'm not one of these people that thinks like the

1374
01:07:30,360 --> 01:07:32,680
Speaker 1: charge of virtue signaling is thrown around way too much,

1375
01:07:32,760 --> 01:07:34,760
Speaker 1: Like sometimes people are just generally trying to be good

1376
01:07:34,800 --> 01:07:36,280
Speaker 1: and people are like, oh, you're making a big show

1377
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:38,440
Speaker 1: of it. But in this particular case, it seems a

1378
01:07:38,560 --> 01:07:42,480
Speaker 1: well applied term because dude, none of this was exactly

1379
01:07:42,720 --> 01:07:46,320
Speaker 1: not known about Dravante before the fight. I mean, the

1380
01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:49,000
Speaker 1: guy was already on fucking not for the domestic violence

1381
01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,760
Speaker 1: part of it, but he was already on probation like

1382
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,560
Speaker 1: his this was this was just the latest chapter in

1383
01:07:56,680 --> 01:07:58,480
Speaker 1: a long string of them. And remember there was a

1384
01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:01,040
Speaker 1: recent amount where I think it was a recent charges

1385
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:03,760
Speaker 1: that were dropped against him because the person in that

1386
01:08:03,840 --> 01:08:07,080
Speaker 1: particular case, the alleged victim, refused to I think move

1387
01:08:07,160 --> 01:08:09,880
Speaker 1: forward with the case, so they I think they opted me,

1388
01:08:09,960 --> 01:08:12,880
Speaker 1: had to drop it. But like this was well known, Dude,

1389
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:18,519
Speaker 1: is am I misremembering? Didn't Jake Paul in some of

1390
01:08:18,600 --> 01:08:25,120
Speaker 1: the press conferences tease Jervonte about domestic violence? Like this

1391
01:08:25,360 --> 01:08:27,839
Speaker 1: was super well known. So this is obviously a bullshit

1392
01:08:27,920 --> 01:08:31,080
Speaker 1: pretext that I mean we talked about it before. Jervonte,

1393
01:08:32,280 --> 01:08:35,519
Speaker 1: you know, I mean, was putting no effort into this.

1394
01:08:35,720 --> 01:08:38,800
Speaker 1: It seemed there I think people were. I don't think

1395
01:08:38,920 --> 01:08:42,720
Speaker 1: Jake really understands how much he turned people off with

1396
01:08:42,840 --> 01:08:45,599
Speaker 1: that Mike Tyson fight. It was a disaster.

1397
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:47,800
Speaker 2: That escalated it to Luke.

1398
01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:49,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, there's just been a lot that people

1399
01:08:49,880 --> 01:08:51,800
Speaker 1: have been like, ugh, we've kind of seen what the

1400
01:08:51,920 --> 01:08:54,719
Speaker 1: Jake Paul experiences. We don't really want to do this anymore. Again,

1401
01:08:54,800 --> 01:08:56,519
Speaker 1: we were participants in it for a while too, but

1402
01:08:56,600 --> 01:08:58,840
Speaker 1: it seems like it's unless it's going to be something

1403
01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:01,400
Speaker 1: other than what it's been, has really run its course

1404
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:05,160
Speaker 1: and the market was responding in a way that they

1405
01:09:05,280 --> 01:09:07,680
Speaker 1: just didn't have any interest. Again, Dravante wasn't making it

1406
01:09:07,720 --> 01:09:09,080
Speaker 1: easy for them by the way which she was going

1407
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:12,120
Speaker 1: about it. But this is just obviously a bullshit pretext

1408
01:09:12,200 --> 01:09:14,920
Speaker 1: thing because you know, I mean, didn't Jake Paul fight

1409
01:09:15,000 --> 01:09:15,439
Speaker 1: in Saudi?

1410
01:09:15,640 --> 01:09:17,360
Speaker 2: Like yeah, I mean, I.

1411
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:19,400
Speaker 1: Mean, like, dude, you're wanting to do business with a

1412
01:09:19,479 --> 01:09:24,120
Speaker 1: theocratic monarchy, Like, please stop with this pretension of what

1413
01:09:24,400 --> 01:09:25,479
Speaker 1: this all means to you, you know.

1414
01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:27,120
Speaker 2: I mean I tweeted out that it was, you know,

1415
01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:30,559
Speaker 2: obvious that the ticket sales were were the major reason,

1416
01:09:30,680 --> 01:09:33,560
Speaker 2: and Nikisha badari And of MVP tweeted back at me

1417
01:09:33,680 --> 01:09:36,400
Speaker 2: and said that's funny. And I know Ariel has like

1418
01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:40,960
Speaker 2: said yeah, yeah, he was like that's funny, as if

1419
01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:42,920
Speaker 2: I you know, it wasn't true, and then I know

1420
01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,080
Speaker 2: Ariel's made the case that like it was never going

1421
01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 2: to be about the live gate because of the money

1422
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,840
Speaker 2: they're getting from Netflix. But and whether they would have

1423
01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:52,760
Speaker 2: papered the arena or not, which does happen a lot

1424
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,280
Speaker 2: in boxing. I'm not gonna act like it doesn't. People

1425
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,720
Speaker 2: were just done. People were just done with this stupid fight,

1426
01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:01,280
Speaker 2: and rightfully so. Here's quickly the Jake tweet in which

1427
01:10:01,320 --> 01:10:06,240
Speaker 2: he announced it attacking Jervonte, basically saying Tank is a actual, walking,

1428
01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:09,559
Speaker 2: human piece of garbage. Working with him was an absolute nightmare,

1429
01:10:09,640 --> 01:10:13,000
Speaker 2: the nightmare of the unprofessionalism, the bizarre requests, the showing

1430
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:14,360
Speaker 2: up hours late to shoot.

1431
01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:17,680
Speaker 1: Okay, hold on, hold on, he's right about that part. Piece, Yeah,

1432
01:10:17,680 --> 01:10:17,880
Speaker 1: he is.

1433
01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:18,240
Speaker 2: He is.

1434
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:22,200
Speaker 1: He's absolutely one hundred percent. We've had to deal with

1435
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:25,080
Speaker 1: Tank on the showtime side with shit like that. He

1436
01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:27,800
Speaker 1: is tough to deal with, dude.

1437
01:10:27,840 --> 01:10:29,680
Speaker 2: The Ryan Garcia press conference in which you and I

1438
01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:32,400
Speaker 2: vamped for ninety minutes and didn't know we were going

1439
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:34,760
Speaker 2: to until they were counting down in our air three

1440
01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:38,519
Speaker 2: two one. He had not even left the private airport

1441
01:10:38,560 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 2: in Miami at that point to come to the New

1442
01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:43,559
Speaker 2: York press conference. So that is what you're dealing with. Jake.

1443
01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,559
Speaker 2: Paul would just go on to you know, talk bad

1444
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,400
Speaker 2: about him and all that. Uh luke. Here's the interesting thing.

1445
01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:51,760
Speaker 2: There were reports that Jake offered, of course, contracts to

1446
01:10:51,840 --> 01:10:55,479
Speaker 2: everyone from Ryan Garcia to Andre Ward to Francis and Gano.

1447
01:10:55,600 --> 01:10:58,600
Speaker 2: But Francis and Gano talked to Team Z Sports and

1448
01:10:58,680 --> 01:10:59,920
Speaker 2: he seemed like he wasn't interested.

1449
01:11:00,040 --> 01:11:03,360
Speaker 14: Let's listen, how how can how can they go from

1450
01:11:03,479 --> 01:11:07,680
Speaker 14: like Givante Davis to Francis and come on like the

1451
01:11:07,760 --> 01:11:09,280
Speaker 14: way different and everything?

1452
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:13,000
Speaker 1: It makes no sense. It makes no sense.

1453
01:11:13,400 --> 01:11:15,560
Speaker 14: Did I reached out the other day and tell me

1454
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:21,120
Speaker 14: how they need a replacement for Givante? Then I say, okay,

1455
01:11:21,479 --> 01:11:23,360
Speaker 14: what can I do for you? He said, yeah, we're

1456
01:11:23,439 --> 01:11:26,519
Speaker 14: looking for a replacement. But I still haven't getted. I

1457
01:11:26,640 --> 01:11:30,160
Speaker 14: was like, okay, then, what exactly can I do for you?

1458
01:11:30,760 --> 01:11:33,720
Speaker 14: Like we would think about you? To fact Jack, I'm

1459
01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:35,599
Speaker 14: like what, I'm like, whush?

1460
01:11:35,720 --> 01:11:35,920
Speaker 5: Jake?

1461
01:11:36,479 --> 01:11:39,280
Speaker 14: I was so confused. I'm like, no, bro, come on,

1462
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:43,200
Speaker 14: don't disrespect me like that. He sent out some number.

1463
01:11:43,280 --> 01:11:47,080
Speaker 14: I'm like, it's not about the number. I'm not just interested.

1464
01:11:47,120 --> 01:11:49,439
Speaker 2: He makes no sense for me, is it flattering at

1465
01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:51,640
Speaker 2: least that that they're thinking about you.

1466
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:53,600
Speaker 1: I think it's disrespectful.

1467
01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:55,559
Speaker 5: Instead we work flattering.

1468
01:11:56,160 --> 01:11:59,080
Speaker 2: Come on, I mean, I get it if you're saying

1469
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:01,600
Speaker 2: it from a standpoint of don't don't reach out to

1470
01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 2: me as a last man and opponent with some small offer,

1471
01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:08,000
Speaker 2: like actually announced that you're willing to fight me, pay

1472
01:12:08,040 --> 01:12:09,920
Speaker 2: me what I deserve, and build to it. Because look,

1473
01:12:09,960 --> 01:12:12,479
Speaker 2: I mean, the argument for me is that that's the

1474
01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:15,599
Speaker 2: fight where JA can recruit re That's the fight where

1475
01:12:15,680 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 2: Jake can best outside of fighting for like a legitimate

1476
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:22,400
Speaker 2: cruiserweight title. That's the fight where Jake can get the

1477
01:12:22,479 --> 01:12:24,920
Speaker 2: most street cred back even in a loss, just for

1478
01:12:25,080 --> 01:12:27,400
Speaker 2: taking it, like if he actually would if he cares

1479
01:12:27,439 --> 01:12:30,519
Speaker 2: about actual boxing street cred, like maybe he would get

1480
01:12:30,560 --> 01:12:33,160
Speaker 2: a little if he rematched Tommy Fury, which is his

1481
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:36,280
Speaker 2: only pro loss. I think the Anganu fight is his

1482
01:12:36,439 --> 01:12:38,320
Speaker 2: super Bowl, and I've said that from the beginning, because

1483
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:40,439
Speaker 2: that's a fight in which I would think almost anyone

1484
01:12:40,479 --> 01:12:43,280
Speaker 2: would pick against him and assume he would get hurt

1485
01:12:43,320 --> 01:12:46,559
Speaker 2: and knocked out. Yet if he can win that, I'm

1486
01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:49,000
Speaker 2: not of the belief he's of the world title level.

1487
01:12:49,080 --> 01:12:52,080
Speaker 2: To me, the Anganu fight is like the crossover bubble

1488
01:12:52,200 --> 01:12:55,160
Speaker 2: celebrity super Bowl. We did see a back and forth

1489
01:12:55,200 --> 01:12:57,439
Speaker 2: on Twitter between these two. We can briefly check it

1490
01:12:57,479 --> 01:13:02,360
Speaker 2: out here, in which Francis said, choose your words wisely, boy.

1491
01:13:02,479 --> 01:13:04,800
Speaker 2: I agree that you need someone to discipline you for

1492
01:13:04,920 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 2: what you did to Mike Tyson, but stay in your lane.

1493
01:13:07,560 --> 01:13:09,880
Speaker 2: Jake would say, my lane helped your lane. I spoke

1494
01:13:10,040 --> 01:13:12,800
Speaker 2: up for you over and over again. No more. Look

1495
01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:15,439
Speaker 2: at yourself in the mirror. God don't like ugly. Maybe

1496
01:13:15,520 --> 01:13:17,760
Speaker 2: the truth is you are a fake holier than now

1497
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:21,560
Speaker 2: actor when it's always been just about you. Maybe you

1498
01:13:21,760 --> 01:13:23,599
Speaker 2: use your platform to speak on the youth of our

1499
01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,920
Speaker 2: country posting a flag, ain't it, instead of doing TMZ

1500
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:29,799
Speaker 2: interviews like a con man to talk about me reality

1501
01:13:29,880 --> 01:13:32,280
Speaker 2: Teck I sleep you in boxing and John Jones does

1502
01:13:32,360 --> 01:13:37,200
Speaker 2: in MMA. I guess whatever. That's pretty lame. Lt. We

1503
01:13:37,320 --> 01:13:39,960
Speaker 2: also had Natz coming out with this IG post in

1504
01:13:40,000 --> 01:13:44,240
Speaker 2: which he said he accepts the rematch. I'm not gonna

1505
01:13:44,240 --> 01:13:47,439
Speaker 2: act like you care or I really care. But if

1506
01:13:47,479 --> 01:13:49,880
Speaker 2: it's not in Ghanu, is there any other opponent where

1507
01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:50,320
Speaker 2: you might.

1508
01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:54,479
Speaker 1: Do anything but turn the channel, Joshua?

1509
01:13:56,040 --> 01:13:57,639
Speaker 2: Even though that that's murder.

1510
01:13:59,000 --> 01:14:02,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, sweet, all right?

1511
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:04,519
Speaker 2: I mean do you agree with me that that in

1512
01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:07,519
Speaker 2: Ghanu should be the fight that like they should build

1513
01:14:07,560 --> 01:14:09,800
Speaker 2: to this now and Don Davis should get involved too,

1514
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 2: put in the damn smart cage. However you do it.

1515
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:13,840
Speaker 2: This is the fight for Jake.

1516
01:14:14,040 --> 01:14:16,080
Speaker 1: Long Island. Luke hates this fight Long Island, Luke, why

1517
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 1: do you hate a Jake Paul, Francis and Ghana fight.

1518
01:14:19,640 --> 01:14:21,840
Speaker 4: No, you guys were saying in the group chat, I

1519
01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:24,519
Speaker 4: don't know why Francis wouldn't just take this, And I said,

1520
01:14:24,640 --> 01:14:27,519
Speaker 4: because it's a lose lose for Francis. Either he beats

1521
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,200
Speaker 4: Jake Paul and everyone goes, well, no shit, Francis beat

1522
01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:32,880
Speaker 4: Jake Paul, or you lose to Jake Paul and everyone's like,

1523
01:14:32,960 --> 01:14:37,120
Speaker 4: oh god, Francis lost to Jake Paul. So there's like, sure,

1524
01:14:37,200 --> 01:14:40,120
Speaker 4: if he wants a big payday, that's that's the benefit obviously,

1525
01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:43,320
Speaker 4: But if you're set in near Francis, like why even

1526
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 4: why even put yourself on that level. It's kind of

1527
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:48,040
Speaker 4: like what I was thinking with Tank Tank. You have

1528
01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,519
Speaker 4: all this money, maybe he's spending it all, but like,

1529
01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:54,719
Speaker 4: why are you wasting? Why are you tainting your legacy

1530
01:14:54,840 --> 01:14:57,360
Speaker 4: by doing this when you have plenty of money. I

1531
01:14:57,640 --> 01:14:58,400
Speaker 4: don't understand it.

1532
01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:00,640
Speaker 5: You see.

1533
01:15:00,800 --> 01:15:03,080
Speaker 1: I'll just say this, if he made Netflix money and

1534
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:06,439
Speaker 1: then stretched Jake, Paul Francis and Ghanu would be a

1535
01:15:06,560 --> 01:15:09,479
Speaker 1: hero in MMA four for the rest of time.

1536
01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:13,120
Speaker 2: He really would, He really really would. That is topic

1537
01:15:13,680 --> 01:15:18,479
Speaker 2: number four. Hey, topic five. Finally, Oh freakin' finally, we've

1538
01:15:18,560 --> 01:15:20,960
Speaker 2: got a fight to get excited about in boxing and

1539
01:15:21,080 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 2: considering the abs absolute urinal cakes being presented to us

1540
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:27,680
Speaker 2: in the boxing schedule over the second half of this

1541
01:15:27,880 --> 01:15:33,200
Speaker 2: calendar year, Saturday's Dezonne Showdown from Fort Worth, Texas, matching

1542
01:15:33,360 --> 01:15:38,000
Speaker 2: top junior middleweights Virgil Ortiz Junior, the unbeaten from Dallas

1543
01:15:38,280 --> 01:15:42,000
Speaker 2: and Ericson Lubin, the former title challenger who was only

1544
01:15:42,120 --> 01:15:45,479
Speaker 2: lost at the highest level to Jermel Charlow and in

1545
01:15:45,600 --> 01:15:49,920
Speaker 2: a fight of the year against Sebastian Frondora. They're gonna

1546
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:53,840
Speaker 2: touch down and trade punches this Saturday, where Tez might

1547
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:57,280
Speaker 2: be fighting for a chance to face Drawn Bootsennis in

1548
01:15:57,320 --> 01:16:00,639
Speaker 2: his next bout, although Eddie hernan Oscar d Hoyer going

1549
01:16:00,720 --> 01:16:03,840
Speaker 2: back and forth a bit this week about that and

1550
01:16:04,040 --> 01:16:06,759
Speaker 2: Lubin by the way, this would be the biggest victory

1551
01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:09,639
Speaker 2: of his career and would face and send him directly

1552
01:16:09,960 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 2: into a title opportunity as they'll fight for the interim

1553
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:16,080
Speaker 2: WBC title at one fifty four. But it's really about

1554
01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:18,280
Speaker 2: putting themselves in position.

1555
01:16:18,479 --> 01:16:18,599
Speaker 11: Now.

1556
01:16:18,640 --> 01:16:22,759
Speaker 2: The odds are pretty wide according to DraftKings or Virgil

1557
01:16:22,880 --> 01:16:26,439
Speaker 2: Ortiz a minus one thousand favorite. We do see that

1558
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:29,799
Speaker 2: a lot in boxing though, plus six hundred for Lubin.

1559
01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:32,720
Speaker 2: But we know this is going to be exciting and

1560
01:16:32,840 --> 01:16:36,040
Speaker 2: we know a lot of at stake. Luke, in your opinion,

1561
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 2: as we watched the face off here between the two

1562
01:16:38,960 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 2: fighters from a recent press conference, what's the most exciting

1563
01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:44,920
Speaker 2: aspect of this matchup in your eyes?

1564
01:16:45,840 --> 01:16:48,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna say that Lubin is a puncher. Do you

1565
01:16:48,840 --> 01:16:52,080
Speaker 1: agree with that? BC Heck, yeah, yeah, he's a puncher. Now,

1566
01:16:52,160 --> 01:16:54,400
Speaker 1: obviously he's got that first round loss to Charlo whatever.

1567
01:16:54,560 --> 01:16:56,840
Speaker 1: But in general, and you know, he got beaten up

1568
01:16:56,840 --> 01:16:59,640
Speaker 1: by Fundora over the course of time and busted up

1569
01:16:59,640 --> 01:17:01,400
Speaker 1: his face and it's swollowed up, looked like he had

1570
01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:04,040
Speaker 1: been stung by a thousand bees. But in general, like

1571
01:17:04,160 --> 01:17:07,000
Speaker 1: Lubin is pretty skilled and definitely a good puncher and

1572
01:17:07,680 --> 01:17:10,200
Speaker 1: B see, I'll say this, I think Ortiz I'm not

1573
01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:12,200
Speaker 1: gonna call him a slickster. I don't think that's quite right.

1574
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:15,360
Speaker 1: But he's got a few more tricks than I think

1575
01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:19,280
Speaker 1: he gets credit for. But when you marry that with

1576
01:17:19,439 --> 01:17:21,800
Speaker 1: the kind of pressure that he puts on, you know,

1577
01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:23,840
Speaker 1: you kind of wonder if Lubin is gonna be able

1578
01:17:23,840 --> 01:17:25,439
Speaker 1: to stand up to it. At the same time, he

1579
01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:29,080
Speaker 1: does make himself available for counter punching or you know,

1580
01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:31,160
Speaker 1: a big shot from a guy like Lubin. Lubin is

1581
01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:32,920
Speaker 1: a puncher, you know, he's a puncher in you know,

1582
01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:36,360
Speaker 1: in a sport world everyone is, so he's he can crack.

1583
01:17:36,920 --> 01:17:39,840
Speaker 1: What does that do to Ortiz if he starts to

1584
01:17:39,880 --> 01:17:42,160
Speaker 1: get hit with some of those now again, BC just

1585
01:17:42,200 --> 01:17:44,200
Speaker 1: put my cards on the table. I feel like Ortiz

1586
01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:46,320
Speaker 1: in the odds speak to that. Obviously, he's kind of

1587
01:17:46,360 --> 01:17:48,720
Speaker 1: going to overwhelm Lubin, but it could definitely be a

1588
01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:51,560
Speaker 1: little bit touch and go if Lubin is able to

1589
01:17:51,560 --> 01:17:53,679
Speaker 1: get into a rhythm in the early round.

1590
01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:57,639
Speaker 2: I agree with you. Lubin's been a nice run since

1591
01:17:57,720 --> 01:18:01,879
Speaker 2: that wild All Action lost to Fandora back in twenty

1592
01:18:02,080 --> 01:18:06,040
Speaker 2: twenty two, he stopped Luis cuba arias a very good,

1593
01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:09,919
Speaker 2: uh you know, gatekeeper type fighter. He took a close decision,

1594
01:18:09,960 --> 01:18:12,759
Speaker 2: went over I'm beating Hezeus Ramos, and then he stopped

1595
01:18:12,840 --> 01:18:15,920
Speaker 2: unbeating Ardrelle Holmes Junior in the eleventh round to get

1596
01:18:16,000 --> 01:18:19,679
Speaker 2: to this point despite the odds against him. Of course,

1597
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:22,880
Speaker 2: Ortiz the bigger name, the brighter ceiling when you consider

1598
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,200
Speaker 2: at twenty seven, he's twenty three and oh with twenty one,

1599
01:18:26,360 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 2: KOs never got to face the elite at welterweight because

1600
01:18:29,840 --> 01:18:30,559
Speaker 2: he was avoided.

1601
01:18:30,880 --> 01:18:31,000
Speaker 13: Then.

1602
01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,280
Speaker 2: Of course he had that two year gap in the

1603
01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:35,799
Speaker 2: midst of his prime when he had that muscle disease

1604
01:18:35,880 --> 01:18:39,200
Speaker 2: what was that called Luke ram boyosis.

1605
01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:44,120
Speaker 1: Oh rabdomialysis right with rabdo for short.

1606
01:18:44,400 --> 01:18:47,559
Speaker 2: Which killed his way cuts, threatened actually his his health.

1607
01:18:48,040 --> 01:18:50,439
Speaker 2: He did come back though, in less less than two

1608
01:18:50,520 --> 01:18:52,120
Speaker 2: years ago. In the run he's been on a one

1609
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:55,320
Speaker 2: fifty four has been great, stopped veterans Frederick Lawston and

1610
01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,920
Speaker 2: Thomas DeLorme, got up off the canvas twice to out

1611
01:18:59,000 --> 01:19:00,840
Speaker 2: duel Sir hey Boa Chuck in a Fight of the

1612
01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:03,479
Speaker 2: Year contender, But really it was his last fight in

1613
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:05,719
Speaker 2: February of this year when he went in there against

1614
01:19:05,760 --> 01:19:08,760
Speaker 2: former champion Israel Madramov and for the first time at

1615
01:19:08,800 --> 01:19:11,760
Speaker 2: the highest level, showed that his boxing and his IQ

1616
01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:15,000
Speaker 2: with Robert Garcia in his corner, is on the same

1617
01:19:15,120 --> 01:19:18,599
Speaker 2: level of his two handed punching ability, his body work,

1618
01:19:18,720 --> 01:19:22,200
Speaker 2: his square up and brawl ability. So we're gonna see action,

1619
01:19:22,400 --> 01:19:24,960
Speaker 2: We're gonna see fun right here. Let's first hear from

1620
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:27,880
Speaker 2: ericson Lubin and then Ortiz during their face off with

1621
01:19:27,960 --> 01:19:28,599
Speaker 2: Todd Grisham.

1622
01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:31,040
Speaker 1: A lot of people do not want to fight this guy.

1623
01:19:31,160 --> 01:19:33,639
Speaker 1: He has been avoided, and yet you've been calling him out.

1624
01:19:33,880 --> 01:19:35,560
Speaker 3: What are you seeing him that makes you think you

1625
01:19:35,600 --> 01:19:36,120
Speaker 3: can beat him?

1626
01:19:37,320 --> 01:19:39,479
Speaker 15: I feel like he's a great fighter. I just feel

1627
01:19:39,560 --> 01:19:42,920
Speaker 15: like right now is my time. I feel like I

1628
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:45,960
Speaker 15: faced the toughest guys in the division, and I'm just

1629
01:19:46,000 --> 01:19:48,840
Speaker 15: ready to prove myself. You know, this is my third

1630
01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:53,920
Speaker 15: undefeated fighter in a row and top ten contender, and

1631
01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,200
Speaker 15: I'm just looking to solidify myself as the best one

1632
01:19:56,280 --> 01:19:57,320
Speaker 15: hundred and fifty four pounder.

1633
01:19:58,439 --> 01:20:00,920
Speaker 1: When you heard his name being mentioned as a potential opponent,

1634
01:20:01,000 --> 01:20:01,519
Speaker 1: what did you think.

1635
01:20:02,280 --> 01:20:05,040
Speaker 16: I thought that this was a great fight, you know,

1636
01:20:05,160 --> 01:20:08,559
Speaker 16: He's like, like we've been saying he's been in there

1637
01:20:08,600 --> 01:20:12,360
Speaker 16: with the best, and uh, you know that's I just

1638
01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:13,160
Speaker 16: want to fight the best.

1639
01:20:13,200 --> 01:20:13,680
Speaker 3: That's really it.

1640
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:13,960
Speaker 5: You know.

1641
01:20:14,120 --> 01:20:16,800
Speaker 16: I don't get again anything against anybody. I'm just a

1642
01:20:16,880 --> 01:20:17,679
Speaker 16: competitive person.

1643
01:20:19,400 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 2: Now. Luke Ortiz was supposed to fight Boots Ennis for

1644
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:27,120
Speaker 2: Giranas's one fifty four debut. He says he signed a contract.

1645
01:20:27,360 --> 01:20:29,400
Speaker 2: He claims Boots pulled out of that took on that

1646
01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:31,880
Speaker 2: guy Lima that no one had heard of, and by

1647
01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:35,080
Speaker 2: the way, he destroyed Lima in one round. But Erickson

1648
01:20:35,160 --> 01:20:38,800
Speaker 2: Lubin does believe that Ortiz and team are looking past him,

1649
01:20:39,200 --> 01:20:42,080
Speaker 2: talking too much about that Girana in this fight, even

1650
01:20:42,120 --> 01:20:45,519
Speaker 2: though at the press conference, uh victor or Virgil Ortiz

1651
01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:48,760
Speaker 2: refused to even mention uh giron unis his name. Here's

1652
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:51,000
Speaker 2: one more clip here from Lubin talking with Brian Custer.

1653
01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:55,720
Speaker 2: This is an opportunity for me to shut everybody up.

1654
01:20:55,880 --> 01:20:57,760
Speaker 17: Tell us what you meant by that, you know, with

1655
01:20:58,120 --> 01:21:01,639
Speaker 17: with with Virgiots and Boots, you know they're they're looking

1656
01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:02,240
Speaker 17: past me.

1657
01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:04,360
Speaker 3: You know they they're they're looking.

1658
01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:07,880
Speaker 17: To create fantasy matches way before you know anything like

1659
01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:10,680
Speaker 17: this happens you know, this is a big fight right here.

1660
01:21:11,000 --> 01:21:14,400
Speaker 17: This is Virgo Ortiz's biggest fight, biggest test in my opinion,

1661
01:21:14,840 --> 01:21:16,560
Speaker 17: and this is one of my biggest fights, you know.

1662
01:21:16,920 --> 01:21:19,559
Speaker 2: But I fought I fought the cream of the crop

1663
01:21:19,640 --> 01:21:20,240
Speaker 2: of the division.

1664
01:21:20,600 --> 01:21:24,320
Speaker 17: I fought Fundorras, I fought Charlo, I fought Ramos, And

1665
01:21:24,520 --> 01:21:27,040
Speaker 17: you know, me fighting a guy like Virgo Ortiz, I'm

1666
01:21:27,120 --> 01:21:31,280
Speaker 17: just I'm highly prepared. Like I'm I'm I'm extremely prepared

1667
01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:33,280
Speaker 17: for this fight, and I'm looking to mess.

1668
01:21:33,200 --> 01:21:34,080
Speaker 3: Up all those plans.

1669
01:21:35,439 --> 01:21:37,360
Speaker 2: Let's see what happens here. Look, I think it's gonna

1670
01:21:37,360 --> 01:21:40,280
Speaker 2: be explosive. I think you obviously have to favor Ortiz.

1671
01:21:40,320 --> 01:21:42,920
Speaker 2: The odds aren't wrong in that regard, given the fact

1672
01:21:42,960 --> 01:21:45,479
Speaker 2: that Lubin's only two losses he did get knocked out.

1673
01:21:45,600 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 2: That does factor in. But if Lubin tries to make

1674
01:21:48,680 --> 01:21:50,680
Speaker 2: this a war early, I think that's gonna be his

1675
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:53,760
Speaker 2: best chance to to compete in a in more of

1676
01:21:53,840 --> 01:21:56,439
Speaker 2: a firefight, even with that chin, because I don't think

1677
01:21:56,479 --> 01:21:57,599
Speaker 2: he can out box Ortiz.

1678
01:21:58,680 --> 01:22:00,920
Speaker 1: I don't think he can out box or Ties either,

1679
01:22:01,160 --> 01:22:03,920
Speaker 1: certainly not over the long haul. Do I think he

1680
01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:06,880
Speaker 1: can win key stretches. I do be see. I Lubin

1681
01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:08,559
Speaker 1: is one of those guys where we kind of thought

1682
01:22:08,600 --> 01:22:10,400
Speaker 1: when we were first, when we first start working a

1683
01:22:10,439 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 1: showtime together, Lubin was one of the guys that we thought, Hey,

1684
01:22:13,200 --> 01:22:15,200
Speaker 1: this guy might actually turn around and do something. And

1685
01:22:15,320 --> 01:22:17,040
Speaker 1: he's not been some kind of dramatic failure, but he

1686
01:22:17,120 --> 01:22:21,280
Speaker 1: hasn't exactly fulfilled the promise. Nevertheless, part of the reason

1687
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:23,000
Speaker 1: why he had that promise was because I think some

1688
01:22:23,080 --> 01:22:25,680
Speaker 1: of his technical abilities he couldn't make this interesting. I

1689
01:22:26,040 --> 01:22:29,320
Speaker 1: just feel like when Ortiz has his foot on the

1690
01:22:29,439 --> 01:22:32,880
Speaker 1: gas and he's moving downhill, we've seen Lubin not quit

1691
01:22:32,960 --> 01:22:35,479
Speaker 1: or anything, but just get overwhelmed. And I feel like

1692
01:22:35,640 --> 01:22:38,759
Speaker 1: that is probably what's going to happen. But would be curious,

1693
01:22:38,760 --> 01:22:40,400
Speaker 1: I mean if to your point me see, if Lubin

1694
01:22:40,479 --> 01:22:44,960
Speaker 1: got this win, this would be hugely restorative for his career.

1695
01:22:45,600 --> 01:22:50,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, the title holders in this division, of course, Sebastian Fondora,

1696
01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:54,639
Speaker 2: Bakra Mertizaliev, and then the two other title title holders

1697
01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:58,479
Speaker 2: just signed to face each other, Xander Zaias against that

1698
01:22:58,600 --> 01:23:00,200
Speaker 2: other guy that no one's ever heard of, Lou They're

1699
01:23:00,240 --> 01:23:02,679
Speaker 2: going to unify titles. It's a guy's name, a bass

1700
01:23:02,840 --> 01:23:05,120
Speaker 2: or something like that. I don't know much about that, dude,

1701
01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:08,360
Speaker 2: But oddly enough, for as much as Ortiz has been

1702
01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:11,240
Speaker 2: avoided and has never actually been in a title fight,

1703
01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:15,400
Speaker 2: the fight against Ennis, if he advances to it would

1704
01:23:15,439 --> 01:23:18,360
Speaker 2: be the biggest fight in the division between arguably the

1705
01:23:18,439 --> 01:23:21,800
Speaker 2: two best fighters, and there wouldn't be a belt at stake. So, Luke,

1706
01:23:21,840 --> 01:23:23,880
Speaker 2: maybe we do have a problem with these with this

1707
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:26,479
Speaker 2: sanctioning body bullshit. You know what I'm saying, like this

1708
01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:29,840
Speaker 2: is all a bunch of bullshit. Oscar de la Hoya

1709
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:32,160
Speaker 2: at the press conference this week did challenge Boots, said,

1710
01:23:32,200 --> 01:23:34,080
Speaker 2: don't even come to the fight. We know you're not

1711
01:23:34,160 --> 01:23:37,479
Speaker 2: going to take the fight against orchies, and then Boots

1712
01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:41,519
Speaker 2: put a tweet of their of Oscar talking in a

1713
01:23:41,680 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 2: very a video of Oscar talking in a very zesty voice.

1714
01:23:45,400 --> 01:23:48,040
Speaker 2: Luke to sort of pile on him, But I hope

1715
01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:50,800
Speaker 2: they make that fight if Ortiz advances in early twenty six,

1716
01:23:50,840 --> 01:23:54,360
Speaker 2: Boots versus Ortiz would be a that'd be a that'd

1717
01:23:54,400 --> 01:23:56,320
Speaker 2: be that's as good as he gets here in this division.

1718
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:58,880
Speaker 2: But check this out on Saturday on his own. The

1719
01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:01,800
Speaker 2: undercard blows, but that it's just what it ultimately is

1720
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:05,599
Speaker 2: all right. Those are our five topics this week. Now

1721
01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:09,040
Speaker 2: we turned to some fans segments, and you can reach

1722
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:12,400
Speaker 2: out to our program using the email address Morningcombat at

1723
01:24:12,520 --> 01:24:17,679
Speaker 2: gmail dot com. Say hi to Mikey. Please no explicit photos.

1724
01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:21,360
Speaker 2: It's your opportunity to complain, say hi to the show

1725
01:24:21,960 --> 01:24:24,240
Speaker 2: or send in your dead wrongs and fan subs. And

1726
01:24:24,320 --> 01:24:27,920
Speaker 2: we kick off this Friday fun segment here by by

1727
01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:32,120
Speaker 2: standing trial on Budsman style. We don't always get it right.

1728
01:24:32,560 --> 01:24:34,240
Speaker 2: You guys are there to call us out when we

1729
01:24:34,320 --> 01:24:36,880
Speaker 2: get it wrong, but you better have a receipt, receipt

1730
01:24:36,920 --> 01:24:39,960
Speaker 2: and you better not be a bitch. It's called dead

1731
01:24:40,040 --> 01:24:49,400
Speaker 2: wrong then wrong, all right, Long Island, Luke, you got

1732
01:24:49,560 --> 01:24:53,200
Speaker 2: thank you on Long Island? Look a boss a boss barrow?

1733
01:24:53,800 --> 01:24:55,479
Speaker 2: Is that other one fifty four title?

1734
01:24:55,479 --> 01:24:55,760
Speaker 3: Hold there?

1735
01:24:55,760 --> 01:24:57,080
Speaker 2: I don't even know how got the belt. Look this

1736
01:24:57,600 --> 01:24:59,679
Speaker 2: this sport used to be great, but now it sucks

1737
01:24:59,720 --> 01:25:03,040
Speaker 2: the whole. Okay, here we go the first one, Luke

1738
01:25:03,080 --> 01:25:04,080
Speaker 2: from our boy Daz.

1739
01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:07,040
Speaker 1: You know that dude, right backup on that ass and

1740
01:25:07,120 --> 01:25:09,320
Speaker 1: give these motherfuckers a blast from the past.

1741
01:25:09,960 --> 01:25:13,960
Speaker 2: Uh Daz, says the Looha Donks on Monday's November third show.

1742
01:25:14,000 --> 01:25:16,960
Speaker 2: There's no timestamp as I'm sending this during the live stream,

1743
01:25:17,040 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 2: but during the end of topic three, while recapping other

1744
01:25:20,160 --> 01:25:24,760
Speaker 2: fights from the apex, BC, in discussing the man who submitted,

1745
01:25:25,160 --> 01:25:29,519
Speaker 2: Sidricus Dumas says Dakota Johnson came in six and oh

1746
01:25:30,080 --> 01:25:33,120
Speaker 2: with six first round knockouts. Maybe it was a slip

1747
01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:36,400
Speaker 2: of the tongue, or maybe BC's mind was subconsciously on

1748
01:25:36,640 --> 01:25:40,840
Speaker 2: other things, because Dakota Johnson is an actress known for

1749
01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:48,320
Speaker 2: known four fifty Shades series, whereas Dante Johnson is now

1750
01:25:48,680 --> 01:25:52,000
Speaker 2: a seven to oher prospect credited with six ko's in

1751
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:55,479
Speaker 2: one submission. Apologies, I know this is very pedantic, as

1752
01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,920
Speaker 2: always very appreciative for all the combat sports coverage in

1753
01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:03,479
Speaker 2: chat live streams. So luke Dante Johnson, not Dakota Johnson.

1754
01:26:03,880 --> 01:26:06,040
Speaker 2: I must have had fifty Shades on the brain. And

1755
01:26:06,120 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 2: did you hear that Dante Johnson was going to turn

1756
01:26:08,360 --> 01:26:10,720
Speaker 2: around on a one week notice and be on this

1757
01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:14,600
Speaker 2: Saturday's card with the Nevada Commission said he's medically not

1758
01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:16,920
Speaker 2: clear to return. I don't think he got touched against

1759
01:26:16,960 --> 01:26:18,240
Speaker 2: Sadrikas Dumas am I wrong.

1760
01:26:20,520 --> 01:26:22,600
Speaker 1: I think they're probably acting out of an abundance of

1761
01:26:22,640 --> 01:26:24,400
Speaker 1: caution giving everything. You know what I mean.

1762
01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:26,679
Speaker 2: So yeah, you're probably right, but I did get that wrong.

1763
01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:30,160
Speaker 2: Thank you Daz for getting up on that. As Our

1764
01:26:30,240 --> 01:26:32,519
Speaker 2: second one is from Simon, he says on Monday Show.

1765
01:26:32,600 --> 01:26:36,360
Speaker 2: During the DMS, Luke preferred to retired MMA fighter Tom

1766
01:26:36,439 --> 01:26:40,640
Speaker 2: dukin Wha as Fireball Kid, but duken WA's nickname is

1767
01:26:40,680 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 2: actually fire Kid. The Fireball Kid is to take that

1768
01:26:47,560 --> 01:26:51,200
Speaker 2: out of Luke. Okay, all right, down longstop.

1769
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:52,320
Speaker 3: The ball in my way?

1770
01:26:52,360 --> 01:26:52,919
Speaker 1: You understand?

1771
01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:56,240
Speaker 2: Okay, This one's from Mathis. He says. Hey, I'm a

1772
01:26:56,280 --> 01:26:59,200
Speaker 2: longtime listener but a first time emailer. And at one

1773
01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:02,280
Speaker 2: hour and twenty five minutes on Monday, when discussing featherweights,

1774
01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:05,160
Speaker 2: BC explains why there are some contenders at the top

1775
01:27:05,200 --> 01:27:08,200
Speaker 2: who are still aren't known to the casual fan base.

1776
01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:11,799
Speaker 2: He says, quote, no one really knows about Laron Murphy,

1777
01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:15,160
Speaker 2: especially not until the spinning backfist.

1778
01:27:15,840 --> 01:27:16,120
Speaker 4: BC.

1779
01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:20,760
Speaker 2: If you're gonna rep French Canadia, you have to do better.

1780
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:25,559
Speaker 2: Go rewatch the highlight. It's spinning elbow, clear as day,

1781
01:27:26,200 --> 01:27:30,840
Speaker 2: elbow flush to Aaron Pico's face. Anyway, love the show,

1782
01:27:30,960 --> 01:27:33,000
Speaker 2: keep it up Mondays and Fridays are the best ways

1783
01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:33,800
Speaker 2: to start.

1784
01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:34,080
Speaker 3: And end the week.

1785
01:27:34,160 --> 01:27:37,519
Speaker 2: I take that out of Luke. It's a spinning back elbow,

1786
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:39,200
Speaker 2: but it's all spinny shit to me.

1787
01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:41,439
Speaker 3: To be fair, all right, whatever I'm saying.

1788
01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:47,160
Speaker 2: Our final dead wrong comes from Adam, who says, at

1789
01:27:47,240 --> 01:27:50,479
Speaker 2: one six of have You Seen the Ship? BC said,

1790
01:27:51,160 --> 01:27:55,160
Speaker 2: never pass out at a Johnny Rockets diner. That is

1791
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:59,200
Speaker 2: dead wrong. The place where Jake Paul's next opponent passed

1792
01:27:59,280 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 2: out is that In and Out Burger, same color scheme. Though,

1793
01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:06,120
Speaker 2: to be fair, you probably didn't know this place because

1794
01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:09,559
Speaker 2: BC only knows Arby's and Luke only knows the joseph

1795
01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:14,080
Speaker 2: a Bank restroom. Love the show and the weird sexual

1796
01:28:14,240 --> 01:28:17,240
Speaker 2: tension between you two. Look, if we ever end this show,

1797
01:28:17,360 --> 01:28:19,439
Speaker 2: I think there's fans out there who still wanted to

1798
01:28:19,600 --> 01:28:20,479
Speaker 2: end in sex.

1799
01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:23,400
Speaker 1: And our fans are gonna come to us like Robert

1800
01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:27,320
Speaker 1: Redford and offer to have us bang for enormous sum

1801
01:28:27,439 --> 01:28:27,880
Speaker 1: of money.

1802
01:28:28,560 --> 01:28:30,920
Speaker 2: Just so unnecessary to be fair, I mean, it's.

1803
01:28:30,800 --> 01:28:32,760
Speaker 1: Just not even Charlie Sheen would do it, right, Is that?

1804
01:28:32,920 --> 01:28:33,400
Speaker 1: Is that what you take?

1805
01:28:33,479 --> 01:28:33,519
Speaker 14: It?

1806
01:28:33,640 --> 01:28:36,000
Speaker 2: Is true? By the way, Charlie Sheen's interview on all

1807
01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:39,640
Speaker 2: the Smoke with with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson was tremendous.

1808
01:28:39,800 --> 01:28:43,120
Speaker 2: But yes, Charlie Sheen did did did cross over there

1809
01:28:43,200 --> 01:28:44,280
Speaker 2: during his crack years.

1810
01:28:44,439 --> 01:28:45,439
Speaker 4: Luke, you know what I'm saying.

1811
01:28:46,680 --> 01:28:48,439
Speaker 2: I don't know if he was ever in through the outdoor,

1812
01:28:48,520 --> 01:28:50,439
Speaker 2: but that's you know, let's go. It's a decent death

1813
01:28:50,479 --> 01:28:55,360
Speaker 2: that led Zeppel the album to be fair right it

1814
01:28:55,520 --> 01:29:05,559
Speaker 2: is full in the Rain. Okay, all right, babe, Oh yeah, right,

1815
01:29:05,760 --> 01:29:08,160
Speaker 2: come on, well, Luke's rocking out to that. I know

1816
01:29:08,320 --> 01:29:13,400
Speaker 2: it right long Island, Luke. Okay, oh Luke, what is Eltie?

1817
01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:15,639
Speaker 2: Do you have a favorite led Zeppelin album or does

1818
01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:17,280
Speaker 2: our classic rock talk stop here?

1819
01:29:18,160 --> 01:29:19,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if I have a favorite album, but

1820
01:29:20,360 --> 01:29:23,360
Speaker 1: you know I certainly like and respect them greatly.

1821
01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:26,040
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you for that, Thank you for that. Our

1822
01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:29,960
Speaker 2: final segment of the week allows Saoul to update you

1823
01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:32,719
Speaker 2: on his life and maybe we'll see the Paquette cousins

1824
01:29:32,800 --> 01:29:35,680
Speaker 2: back together. Hey, this one's called fan submissions.

1825
01:29:37,640 --> 01:29:39,960
Speaker 1: You've got mail feures.

1826
01:29:41,800 --> 01:29:44,920
Speaker 2: Thank you Gaff Pierre for that. Speaking of Saul of

1827
01:29:45,040 --> 01:29:48,800
Speaker 2: Louisville fame, he says, twas the night before Halloween and

1828
01:29:49,040 --> 01:29:51,680
Speaker 2: Arby's was on my mind. Come to find out, they

1829
01:29:51,800 --> 01:29:55,960
Speaker 2: got a Thanksgiving sandwich. Tried to go behind the dumpster

1830
01:29:56,520 --> 01:29:59,479
Speaker 2: to really get the full flavor, but they locked up

1831
01:29:59,560 --> 01:30:04,120
Speaker 2: the so I grabbed my whipped cream can and went home.

1832
01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:07,880

1872
01:32:24,000 --> 01:32:33,000

1873
01:32:33,200 --> 01:32:34,960
Speaker 2: for Andrea in German?

1874
01:32:35,840 --> 01:32:38,799
Speaker 1: I don't. I couldn't. I couldn't even fake a German

01:32:38,920 --> 01:32:40,360
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know how to do that.

1913
01:34:22,080 --> 01:34:23,600

01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:26,080

Speaker 1: for deroyaled, whatever it is for that.

1916
01:34:27,920 --> 01:34:30,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't because yeah, in that country they took seriously

1917
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:32,920
Speaker 2: his connections to that man, Luke.

1918
01:34:33,040 --> 01:34:36,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, probably also them just realizing it's eventually the stuff's

1919
01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:37,800
Speaker 1: gonna get out and it's gonna make him look bad,

1920
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:39,120
Speaker 1: so I might as well cut ties now.

1921
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:40,759
Speaker 2: You know, as well just get him out of the fielding.

1922
01:34:41,160 --> 01:34:43,000
Speaker 2: So he was married to Fergie, right.

1923
01:34:43,280 --> 01:34:45,720
Speaker 1: That's why I understand that. But you know, there are

1924
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:50,519
Speaker 1: people who obsess about the royals, and I think that's lame,

1925
01:34:50,840 --> 01:34:51,360
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

1926
01:34:51,479 --> 01:34:53,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, they as I told you when I toured

1927
01:34:54,000 --> 01:34:57,880
Speaker 2: Buckingham Palace and was making Prince Harry jokes like you know,

1928
01:34:57,960 --> 01:35:00,519
Speaker 2: that's my Prince, they did. The people I work there,

1929
01:35:00,640 --> 01:35:01,679
Speaker 2: they were not happy.

1930
01:35:02,000 --> 01:35:04,320
Speaker 1: Much like the DC employees. They found you not very

1931
01:35:04,400 --> 01:35:05,000
Speaker 1: charming at all.

1932
01:35:05,400 --> 01:35:08,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that they were not ready for that level of humor.

1933
01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,479
Speaker 2: But you know, shout out to Prince Harry just the same.

1934

Speaker 2: lady though, no Cea, you won't bring her on the show.

1949
01:35:52,840 --> 01:35:53,639
Speaker 2: That's never gonna.

1950
01:35:53,439 --> 01:35:56,439
Speaker 4: Happen, right, I feel like she would gladly come on

1951
01:35:56,520 --> 01:35:56,760
Speaker 4: the show.

1952
01:35:56,760 --> 01:36:00,320

1953
01:36:00,720 --> 01:36:02,560
Speaker 2: do not talk about me, do not show me on

1954
01:36:02,600 --> 01:36:02,920
Speaker 2: the show.

1955
01:36:03,000 --> 01:36:03,760
Speaker 1: My wife's the same.

1956
01:36:04,000 --> 01:36:06,320
Speaker 4: Well, see, I like how you guys keep your your

1957
01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:08,679
Speaker 4: wives separate. So that's kind of what I always thought

1958
01:36:08,680 --> 01:36:10,439
Speaker 4: I would do. But she's always like, oh come on.

1959
01:36:10,640 --> 01:36:13,200
Speaker 4: I'm like, all right, chill, okay.

1960
01:36:13,520 --> 01:36:16,040
Speaker 2: I mean LT we should set this up, right, we should?

1961
01:36:16,240 --> 01:36:17,720
Speaker 1: Yeah? I would. I would like to. I would like

1962
01:36:17,800 --> 01:36:18,479
Speaker 1: to interview her.

1963
01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:23,479
Speaker 2: Now, would you rather interview her or his Australian father her?

1964
01:36:24,200 --> 01:36:27,679
Speaker 1: Okay? He probably ignores both of them in equal amounts,

1965
01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:29,599
Speaker 1: but the lady's going to have better.

1966
01:36:29,520 --> 01:36:31,800
Speaker 4: Stories, I think, Yeah, I think if she leaves me

1967
01:36:32,040 --> 01:36:35,200
