00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: the first time in the nearly eight year history of

12
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,280
Speaker 1: this show, I made Ken Flow sit and wait for

13
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 1: me for fifteen minutes before we started the episode. How'd

14
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: that go?

15
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:56,880
Speaker 2: Dare you? I know?

16
00:00:57,080 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 3: How dare you?

17
00:00:57,880 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 2: Dude?

18
00:00:58,200 --> 00:00:58,840
Speaker 3: How dare you?

19
00:00:58,920 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 2: I wait for nobody?

20
00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 3: No, it's all good, son, You're usually waiting for me,

21
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:04,720
Speaker 3: like so this kind of like, you know, it's all good.

22
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: So when we had Kevin Ioli, the famed boxing an

23
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:13,080
Speaker 1: MMA writer from Yahoo Sports, on episode one or episode three,

24
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,920
Speaker 1: we intro him and as you'll recall, the first thing,

25
00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: he said, Oh, it's great to be on with you guys,

26
00:01:18,480 --> 00:01:21,040
Speaker 1: but why is it not The Florian and Antik Podcast

27
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:23,480
Speaker 1: what did John Annak do to have his name in

28
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 1: front of Ken Flows And I froze. I was like,

29
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: we got this whole thing wrong. This guy thought for

30
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 1: about three times, but no, I just did Teddy Atlas's podcast.

31
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 1: We went a little bit long. His energy is just

32
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:36,200
Speaker 1: off the chart, so I'm trying to sort of use

33
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 1: it as fuel for our podcast. Today. We've got two

34
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 1: episodes coming up this week. Full episodes of the Anakin

35
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 1: Flooring Podcast. On the video side, are yours on the

36
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:46,520
Speaker 1: DraftKings YouTube channel. Don't forget, clips of this show can

37
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: still be accessed on our Anakin Floorian podcast channel, which

38
00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,000
Speaker 1: is also the home to remember the show with Bala

39
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 1: Muhammad and Jason Annik every Thursday night, but DraftKings is

40
00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 1: where you need to be subscribing, and obviously if you

41
00:01:58,120 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: like the video, that will help in terms of the

42
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,240
Speaker 1: pop relation of your whole YouTube library. On the audio side,

43
00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 1: hopefully you've noticed that the audio is getting better and

44
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,480
Speaker 1: better with every passing show. Speaking of which we're hardwired today,

45
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 1: Ken Flow hardwired into a brand new deco router. Okay,

46
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 1: we have changed out the box, right, I have upgraded

47
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,519
Speaker 1: my internet plan an additional tier. It actually wasn't the fastest,

48
00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:25,400
Speaker 1: so I apologize there. Exfinity is coming to the house

49
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: tomorrow at eight am with a brand new modem and

50
00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 1: we're passing speed tests at this point in time, to

51
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: the liking of our producer, Cody Merrow, so I know

52
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,360
Speaker 1: my audio hasn't been an issue. The video has been

53
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:41,800
Speaker 1: the issue. And hopefully this is not frozen or Frozen

54
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,919
Speaker 1: two or Frozen three, and hopefully we're good to go.

55
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 2: All right.

56
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 1: Cody's saying we're getting there, but it doesn't seem like

57
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: he's like optimally satisfied.

58
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: So tomorrow tomorrow will be fixed. So I'm not confident.

59
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 2: All right.

60
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,239
Speaker 1: Well, long Ago coming up in about fifteen minutes, says

61
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 1: he will celebrate the win from Rob Dwallish Willie over

62
00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:00,679
Speaker 1: pyotr Yan one O. The thing I just wanted to

63
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 1: mention Ken Flow. So I came back from Vegas and

64
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: I had like an infected hangnail, and so I'm gonna

65
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 1: lose the fingernail, which is neither here nor there. But

66
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 1: I got like a shot a numbing agent of some kind,

67
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:17,799
Speaker 1: three different shots in my finger, and I'm fine with needles.

68
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: Some people, just our producer, you havec producers at Candido

69
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: fucking hates needles, right, I'm fine with needles. She's like,

70
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: you want to stick the needle in there and try

71
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: to relieve, and yes, let's do it right. So she's

72
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 1: sticking a needle in there to numb the finger, hoping

73
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 1: that when she cuts it open, she'll get puss, right,

74
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,040
Speaker 1: But instead, every time she cut it open it was

75
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 1: just blood. It still provided relief because I think my

76
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: fingertip was like filled with blood and maybe some blood

77
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: underneath the nail, but bro, because the fingers are so small.

78
00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: I almost passed out And it wasn't because of the

79
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:53,160
Speaker 1: shot or seeing my own blood. I think Cody said, oh,

80
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: is it the sight of you her own blood?

81
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 2: No?

82
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm tough as hell as the MMA audience knows,

83
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:00,120
Speaker 1: but no, I dude, I've that's the worst feeling in

84
00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 1: the world, like being about to pass out from like

85
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:04,880
Speaker 1: a shot of novacane or whatever.

86
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 3: Dude, that's brutal. Well, there's like there's nowhere for that

87
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 3: needle to go. It's just like right into your finger.

88
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,640
Speaker 3: And those are painful, man, those are painful, and infections

89
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 3: are never good.

90
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:15,640
Speaker 4: Never.

91
00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,679
Speaker 1: We're good now though, I'm on a pretty strong antibiotic.

92
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: A few more days of that, so there will be

93
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,680
Speaker 1: no drinking in London. But I guess I'm most amazed

94
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,640
Speaker 1: and perhaps doctor floor and can help me out with this.

95
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,200
Speaker 1: But dude, six minutes later, I'm behind the wheel of

96
00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 1: a motor vehicle driving myself home and my wife's like, oh,

97
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: what did she say about your finger? I'm like, babe,

98
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,560
Speaker 1: I fucking passed out. Then they're barking all these instructions

99
00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,120
Speaker 1: of me. I have no idea what I'm supposed to

100
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: do with this finger, and they let me drive home

101
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 1: drunk after passing out five minutes later. So all right,

102
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: all right, So big week obviously with UFC two eighty

Speaker 3: One more week, man, one more week. We kind of

00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 3: have like the second chances people that are coming back,

111
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:13,080
Speaker 3: and that's it, and we got a little break, a

112
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,799
Speaker 3: little respite, and then we're off to Vegas for PFL

00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: All right, exactly. We're going to try to do Samannican

121
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:30,240
Speaker 1: Florian podcast on location stuff with DraftKings, but uh, ken Flow,

122
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 1: you know, Ken Flow's got a busiest schedule, busiest fucking

123
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 1: schedule in the world. Speaking of which, by the way,

124
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: Michael Bizzing very apologetic that he couldn't be with us today.

125
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,920
Speaker 1: His schedule was crazy. Right, He's going to effort to

126
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,200
Speaker 1: be with us either next Monday or next Wednesday. But

127
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: rest assured he has a lot of love for Kenny

128
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: Florian as he relates to me over tech message. Yeah,

129
00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:50,839
Speaker 1: he wants to come on with you, so we will

130
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,680
Speaker 1: make good on that, I can assure you. All right,

131
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:55,839
Speaker 1: speaking of making good, how about may Rob Dwalash Willie

132
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 1: making good on the main event showcase fifty to forty

133
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 1: five times three over Pyeoldrian. He's your winner by unanimous decision,

134
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: a record setting starmaking performance as DC put it on

135
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: the broadcast and No one's ever done this to Pyeodrian,

136
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,039
Speaker 1: that's for damn sure. What were your thoughts on Rob's

137
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,160
Speaker 1: big win over the weekend, kid.

138
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 3: I've never seen a fighter at an elite level fight

139
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 3: other elite fighters and use their conditioning as a weapon

140
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 3: like Morob has in the modern era. Right, He's a

141
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 3: guy that you know his There's nothing that stands out

142
00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 3: as far as his striking or even his grappling skills,

143
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,320
Speaker 3: but it's his conditioning and his relentless approach and his

144
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,720
Speaker 3: timing in this fight that was so phenomenal. I saw

145
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 3: improvements in his striking, there's no question about it. But

146
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 3: his toughness, his conditioning is just on a different level. Man.

147
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 3: It was really impressive to watch, and it was fun

148
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 3: to watch a lot of times. You know, you hear

149
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,839
Speaker 3: even knocks on guys like Habib Normaga medoff a. You know, yeah,

150
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,280
Speaker 3: he's good, but you know he kind of wrestles you,

151
00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 3: doesn't do a whole lot. Here's Morob who's trying to

152
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,600
Speaker 3: take you down, and people are loving it. People are

153
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:11,000
Speaker 3: loving his fight and they should. It should be respected.

154
00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 3: What he was able to do to a fighter like

155
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 3: Pyotr Yawn is just unbelievable. And again I tweeted this,

156
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 3: if you're a guy who's looking up Pyot's last few

157
00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 3: fights and you're looking at his record, or if you

158
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 3: see that fight against Rob, you're like, who's this guy?

159
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 3: He doesn't look like he's that great. It seems like

160
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 3: he's on the doubter. This is a phenomenal fighter in

161
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,920
Speaker 3: pyoter Yan, and Marob just takes him completely out of

162
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 3: his game. It's it was unbelievable to watch. It was

163
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 3: a lot of fun.

164
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:39,160
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit disorganized in terms of my thought

165
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:42,000
Speaker 1: process on Dwalish Willie. I don't even know where to begin.

166
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 1: I have a lot of notes. One of them is

167
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,960
Speaker 1: just this overall happiness in combat, and we certainly talk

168
00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: on the heels of John Jones's big win. I did

169
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: think John Jones had a little bit more tension in

170
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: his body than is normally the case when he was

171
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,760
Speaker 1: getting ready to fight Seidel Gone. But Kenny, I know

172
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: that this flies in face a little bit in terms

173
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 1: of guys like you and George Saint Pierre, in terms

174
00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 1: of just your thoughtful nature maybe getting in the way

175
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 1: of just total happiness on fight night. But dude, this

176
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: dude just loves it. Man, from the walk out, even

177
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,520
Speaker 1: at the beginning of round five, like you can't wipe

178
00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:14,559
Speaker 1: the smile off his face.

179
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 3: Loves it. He would have done another five rounds that

180
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: night again some other fighter. I mean, guys, he's so

181
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,360
Speaker 3: impressive to watch. He really loves what he's doing. And

182
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 3: you know, again, that gift of having that pacing to

183
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,880
Speaker 3: be able to do that consistently is something else. Someone

184
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: asked me on Twitter, you know, what do you think

185
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 3: Pyotr Yann could have done? He wasn't creating a whole

186
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 3: lot of offense, And I said, well, you know, footwork

187
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: would have helped for him to be a better grappler,

188
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 3: would have helped. But how the hell do you create

189
00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 3: offense when you have someone who's shooting in on you

190
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 3: forty nine times? Forty nine times? Are you kidding me?

191
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 3: A record?

192
00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: It's insane and I'm gonna get you all the numbers

193
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:03,480
Speaker 1: on Rob Dwallish Willie. But in terms of weaponizing the conditioning,

194
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: you know another note that I took, and Morob's a

195
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: friend of the show obviously long goes on every show,

196
00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,960
Speaker 1: but I had written down like Cheeto going to make

197
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:11,680
Speaker 1: him pay for some of these mistakes, and I don't

198
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,280
Speaker 1: even know, Kenny, if I can tell you what I

199
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 1: perceive as just a novice MMA fan, because I really

200
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: am not much more than that, right. I'm not even

201
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,559
Speaker 1: sure though that I can tell you what I perceived

202
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: to be Morob's mistakes. But it just seems like at

203
00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 1: times he leaves himself open with this constant pursuit of offense.

204
00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:32,559
Speaker 1: And I feel like a longer athlete like Cheeto, with

205
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: so many different fight ending weapons and instincts. I don't

206
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 1: know I did write that down. So what kind of

207
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 1: stylist or elite bantam weight is going to be able

208
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 1: to solve him because he is literally dusting and dominating

209
00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: like a lead elite bantam weights like it's nothing.

210
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 3: Well, I actually I think you pretty much nailed it.

211
00:09:51,559 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 3: I do think leaf length would absolutely help someone, you know, Cheeto,

212
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,600
Speaker 3: you know Sean O'Malley. Guys like that with that kind

213
00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 3: of length who can move well and keep you on

214
00:10:04,800 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: the outside is going to be crucial. You need long

215
00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 3: range weapons. You don't want Morob in your face. You

216
00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 3: need to get some kind of distance established. Those long

217
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 3: range weapons need to let Morob know that he can't

218
00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:21,600
Speaker 3: just charge forward, So you're gonna have to be good

219
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,839
Speaker 3: at countering, good at establishing either that lead leg or

220
00:10:24,960 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 3: that jab to keep Morob on the outside. Otherwise you're

221
00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 3: in for long night. You will suffer and your soul

222
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,599
Speaker 3: will be robbed from you in the process. You know

223
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 3: that's the kind of Morob that you're going to face.

224
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:43,080
Speaker 3: So I agree with eleven takedowns landed Morob. Dwallas Willy

225
00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:45,040
Speaker 3: the first fighter in UFC history to land ten or

226
00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 3: more takedowns in a fight on four different occasions. That

227
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 3: of course impressive in its own right, but his forty

228
00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 3: nine takedown attempts a new single fight UFC record, previously

229
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,839
Speaker 3: held by Kane Velaskaz thirty three against Junior Dosantos said

230
00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,360
Speaker 3: UFC one fifty five. D wallas Willy also ties the

231
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,880
Speaker 3: longest act of UFC win streak in the bantamweight division,

232
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 3: eight consecutive wins. It's a nine fight UFC win streak overall,

233
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:12,439
Speaker 3: and just absolutely incredible. His ability to pressure somebody like

234
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 3: Pyotr Jan to the point where Jan was rendered so defensive.

235
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 3: And by the way, peod Yan has issued a statement

236
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,400
Speaker 3: on social media, I think there were some suboptimal things

237
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 3: that happened during fight week, and you know, I don't

238
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 3: think there's any overstating how challenging the travel can be

239
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,319
Speaker 3: for some of these guys from Europe and Australia and

240
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:32,079
Speaker 3: Asia coming to Las Vegas to fight against somebody who

241
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,520
Speaker 3: trains there locally. But Kenny, like Pyotr Jan, he just

242
00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: was rendered reactive and defensive because like, dude, like the

243
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 3: memes out there, like dude, can imagine looking at fucking

244
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,080
Speaker 3: Morob Dwallis Willi at the beginning of the next round,

245
00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 3: It's like, Yeah, it really does kill your soul. When

246
00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:54,199
Speaker 3: you're exhausted, you're doing everything possible to just survive, and

247
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 3: you see the guy across him and just like like

248
00:11:56,280 --> 00:11:59,400
Speaker 3: he just took a stroll in the park. You're like really,

249
00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,199
Speaker 3: I mean, it's like you're working probably harder than me,

250
00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 3: and you're fine, and I'm exhausted.

251
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:05,079
Speaker 2: It really is.

252
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:09,719
Speaker 3: He has truly weaponized his conditioning to insane levels, and

253
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:12,880
Speaker 3: I don't know, He's gonna give a lot of people problem.

254
00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 2: The other thing I problems.

255
00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:16,600
Speaker 3: I think. The other thing is this is that Morob

256
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 3: really did make improvements with his striking, and Yan was

257
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 3: so concerned at certain points with his takedowns that he

258
00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 3: was getting lit up on the feet either whether it

259
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:27,560
Speaker 3: was light kicks or a nice combination with his hands.

260
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 3: And you know, Morob's hitting hard enough and his striking

261
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,520
Speaker 3: has gotten to a level now where you can't sleep

262
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,040
Speaker 3: on that either. So, uh, Marob continues to impress.

263
00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:37,559
Speaker 2: Uh.

264
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 3: It's it's really fun to watch him and see him

265
00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 3: succeed one of the nicest guys in the sport. And

266
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:46,360
Speaker 3: mister Longo has to be a very happy man, right,

267
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,440
Speaker 3: And we're gonna get to Longo in a couple of minutes.

268
00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,120
Speaker 3: And I am going to bring Dana White's comments on

269
00:12:51,240 --> 00:12:55,120
Speaker 3: Morob duwalash Willie potentially fighting al Jamaine Sterling or not

270
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 3: fighting him, I guess I should say, but I am

271
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,839
Speaker 3: going to wait and give those quotes to Ray so

272
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 3: that we can get his reaction. But Marob Dwallish Willy

273
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 3: is firmly in the mix at one hundred and thirty

274
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,920
Speaker 3: five pounds. And I've said this before about Dana what

275
00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 3: I do believe that his core, he wants a meritocracy.

276
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 3: He wants the most deserving guy to get the championship opportunity.

277
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:14,880
Speaker 3: And I do think this.

278
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,200
Speaker 1: Henry Sahudo reinjection into the mix was a little bit

279
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: of a tricky navigation for the promotion because Sean O'Malley

280
00:13:21,800 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: beat Pyotr Jan who was the number one contender to

281
00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,439
Speaker 1: earn the title fight, even though that was a close fight,

282
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:31,319
Speaker 1: and then Sahudo sort of came back into the mix. So,

283
00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,640
Speaker 1: as I tweeted today, Kenny, I know Morov's not gonna

284
00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,640
Speaker 1: fight al Joe, but you have Henry Sahudo who is

285
00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: now the number one contender who has leapfrog the real

286
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:43,640
Speaker 1: number one contender, Shan O'Malley. You have Marlon Chidovera who's

287
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 1: won four in the row and because he's just a

288
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 1: fucking good egg, he's going to fight Cory Sandhagen when

289
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 1: he probably doesn't have to. And then you have Marob

290
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: Dwallish Willy, who's Aljo's teammate, who seemingly to me, has

291
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,160
Speaker 1: earned a championship opportunity, Like, what are you gonna give

292
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,400
Speaker 1: Morob Domina Cruz in a main event and go look

293
00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: at the top ten right now and you laugh, right,

294
00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:06,120
Speaker 1: But I actually believe that that fight is possible if

295
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 1: Morob wants to fight again before he fights for the title,

296
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,959
Speaker 1: because you have a chance to add the name of

297
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,120
Speaker 1: the consensus greatest band weight of all time to your

298
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,959
Speaker 1: ledger in a fight that you'll probably be a four

299
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: to one favorite to win. But I don't know what

300
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 1: you do, man, I don't know what you do.

301
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,120
Speaker 3: Interesting listen, I think that's a better fight for Dominic

302
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 3: Cruz than a lot of people realize. However, these are

303
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,480
Speaker 3: all good problems for a promotion to have. I mean,

304
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 3: this one hundred and thirty five pound division, John is insane.

305
00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 3: It's ridiculous. How much talent is there. You know, you

306
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:39,600
Speaker 3: can go all the way to the top ten. All

307
00:14:39,680 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 3: of those guys are absolute killers. You look at their

308
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 3: skills top to bottom. It's it's really impressive. It is

309
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,560
Speaker 3: absolutely one of the best divisions in all of mixed

310
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: martial arts. There's no question about that. And you know,

311
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,880
Speaker 3: I guess it gives the UFC a lot of different options,

312
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:01,119
Speaker 3: but it is very complicated when you talk about time matchups,

313
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 3: you know who beat who. There's just a whole lot

314
00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:05,160
Speaker 3: going on.

315
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: And if Sahuto is able to rest the belt away

316
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,440
Speaker 1: from al Jamaine Sterling, how long would Henry Sahudo be

317
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 1: sticking around. Cory Sandhagen obviously is going to factor prominently

318
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: in this mix. He has a main event against Cheetoh

319
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: in twelve days, and one of those guys effectively is

320
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,080
Speaker 1: going to be eliminated. From this conversation, I also wouldn't

321
00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 1: be surprised to see Domina Cruz fight Pyotr Jan. Now

322
00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: the appeal of the Yon fight has lost some shine

323
00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 1: for dom You can be sure with the three successive

324
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:33,960
Speaker 1: losses now to al Jamaine Sterling, Sean O'Malley, and may

325
00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,920
Speaker 1: Rob Dwallas Willy. But I don't know, man, I really

326
00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 1: do believe that it's a very short list of guys

327
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:42,720
Speaker 1: that Morob could potentially fight right now on the heels

328
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: of just a domination of pyodr Jan that I'm not

329
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: sure too many people expected. I gotta think Danny rub

330
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: and Piotr Yan are having some nightmares about Raymond Longo,

331
00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:53,800
Speaker 1: but we're going to table that because Longo's going to

332
00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:55,920

Speaker 1: So I'm so happy for you. And it's just amazing

367
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,600

368
00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: this podcast with you in twenty fifteen. And Morob Dwallis.

369
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 1: Willie is a guy that you have believed in to

370
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,960
Speaker 1: such an extent. You know, humbly you loved this matchup

371
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,080
Speaker 1: for him. Kenny picked him at plus one eighty five.

372
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 1: You've recorded al Jamaine Sterling to two wins over Pyotr Yng,

373
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 1: but to now cornerim Rob to a win over Peodryan

374
00:18:03,960 --> 00:18:07,720
Speaker 1: and a domination like that, a performance against Pyodian that

375
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 1: we've never seen anybody do that to him before. I

376
00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 1: don't know, man, you got to be on cloud nine

377
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 1: with your bantam weight contender.

378
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,840
Speaker 2: Now listen, John, I mean I'm on cloud nine for

379
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:19,920
Speaker 2: a variety of reasons, but you know what I mean.

380
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:23,720
Speaker 2: But it's you know, to you know, I think I

381
00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,840
Speaker 2: was to watch this kid grow and to see him lose,

382
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,680
Speaker 2: come back, make the adjustments, always have the right frame

383
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:34,840
Speaker 2: of mind, like I was telling I was telling them,

384
00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 2: you know, more of people see the tippit the iceberg.

385
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 2: Now they don't see what's below the water, all the

386
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,200
Speaker 2: stuff you had to do to get there, you know

387
00:18:42,280 --> 00:18:45,639
Speaker 2: what I mean? And oh, man, I've never seen a

388
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,560
Speaker 2: guy like this man look at all the like again

389
00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:50,000
Speaker 2: all even his first two losses in the UFC. He

390
00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 2: was down two in the UFC. Not that I thought

391
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,520
Speaker 2: he lost either of them, but he was down to

392
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 2: never let it get to him. Always made the adjustments.

393
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 2: Really we've been talking about his cardio. Man, did he

394
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:05,359
Speaker 2: weaponize his cardio unbelievable in this fight. And if I

395
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: had to pick a perfect scenario for the fight, it

396
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 2: was Saturday night. That was it. There was no glitches

397
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,560
Speaker 2: because after the first round, Kenny I knew that he

398
00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:17,040
Speaker 2: was gonna win the fight. Ninety five percent. I just

399
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 2: didn't know. You know, we knew that he was dangerous

400
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,960
Speaker 2: off the clinch. He had some spins and he could

401
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 2: always catch you in some weird positions. So it wasn't

402
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 2: that we were unaware of that. But he wor balanced

403
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,159
Speaker 2: him so bad like that guy did. I saw it.

404
00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 2: He didn't know what was coming. And Morob kicked, he punched,

405
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 2: he'd take down, he elbowed. He basically did everything and

406
00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 2: you didn't know when it was coming. And he's got balls,

407
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 2: so he's not only does he weaponize his cardio, he's fearless.

408
00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 2: You have to kill him to get him out of there.

409
00:19:47,280 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 2: You know, he got hit with some decent shots and

410
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 2: didn't he didn't even budge right.

411
00:19:51,720 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 3: I want to know where the hell you put the

412
00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 3: gas pup? Is it super let way? Is it like

413
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,000
Speaker 3: jet fuel? What the hell? What the hell are you

414
00:19:58,080 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 3: putting this kid?

415
00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 2: I mean you you we did something. I know, I

416
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,480
Speaker 2: responded to you. He one hundred percent had another two

417
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,200
Speaker 2: rounds in him, like one hundred percent.

418
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: You know you think of that.

419
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:11,600
Speaker 2: It's a ruling fight. You look across the actare and

420
00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 2: normally I'll go from my guys, they go, look how aught,

421
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 2: he's breathing. You look across, this guy's not even sitting down,

422
00:20:17,080 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 2: He's he's smiling. You know.

423
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 3: It's one thing to say for someone and be like, ah,

424
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,520
Speaker 3: he had another two rounds for him, But it's like,

425
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,520
Speaker 3: look at the way Morob fought. That would have killed

426
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 3: most human beings, having that kind of base, and he

427
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,000
Speaker 3: could have done it looked like he could have done

428
00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 3: another fight Like that is crazy that he has that

429
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:38,080
Speaker 3: level of conditioning. But again, you know, what did you

430
00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,600
Speaker 3: think of Morob's general progression, Because again, not only not

431
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,280
Speaker 3: only was his conditioning awesome, which I think we all expected,

432
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:45,960
Speaker 3: but he looked better everywhere.

433
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 2: Ray, he looked real sharp. Yes, a couple of things.

434
00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 2: First off, like you talk to people at the gym.

435
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,360
Speaker 2: I could call him in yet they've seen this guy

436
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,639
Speaker 2: do that exact same thing to a million people in

437
00:20:56,680 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 2: the gym. It's nothing. No, he's never you know, I

438
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 2: don't think he's ever spawned three rounds. It's always six rounds,

439
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 2: maybe ten, you know what I mean, Like he just

440
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 2: and that's with new people. That's not obviously with the

441
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,680
Speaker 2: same buddy, because nobody could keep up with him. But uh, yeah,

442
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,399
Speaker 2: his progression was good. Look. I want to give a

443
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 2: shout out to John Wood too. He did a John

444
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 2: did a great job. What I like about John Believe?

445
00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 3: Yeah?

446
00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:20,240
Speaker 2: Yeah?

Speaker 2: I tell you you go way back though. No, it

457
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 2: is crazy when you think about, like even John saying,

458
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,520
Speaker 2: we've been in this position a lot. Look, I'm blessed.

459
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 2: I really feel blessed to be and and you know

460
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 2: it all started without without this guy in the corner

461
00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,199
Speaker 2: over here, Matt Sarah, I'm not here today. I mean

462
00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:17,919
Speaker 2: it really started way back when we were all together

463
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,280
Speaker 2: in those locker rooms. Kenny. It's it's been such a

464
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:24,679
Speaker 2: great ride and just meeting all the people and developing

465
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:28,560
Speaker 2: friendships and watching the fighters grow and accomplish their dreams.

466
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 2: I can't say enough like it kind of never was

467
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 2: about the fighting to me, man, it was always about

468
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 2: building a culture where people get better and better and better,

469
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:38,600
Speaker 2: you know, with or without me, you know what I mean,

470
00:22:38,720 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 2: and you know, and to be successful after the fighting tree.

471
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:44,720
Speaker 2: As I always say, what Matt, I don't know what

472
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 2: this guy we have a hundred street fights. He would

473
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:50,320
Speaker 2: fight for free, which he did fight for free back then.

474
00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,160
Speaker 2: So to watch him where he's at now in life,

475
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,639
Speaker 2: with a beautiful family and a great business and just

476
00:22:55,880 --> 00:22:58,280
Speaker 2: loving every day of his life. To me, that's where

477
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 2: it was all about. That I I you know, I'm

478
00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:03,639
Speaker 2: not the usual coach, trust me. I don't know. I

479
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,119
Speaker 2: can't explain it, but I talk to people and they

480
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:08,080
Speaker 2: just don't get it. Like you know, we could break

481
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,680
Speaker 2: down fights. Easy fighting is I look at it as

482
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,280
Speaker 2: it's not the hardest thing in the world to look

483
00:23:14,320 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 2: at and see who's gonna win or what you have

484
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 2: to do to win. To me, it's easy. But to

485
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:21,800
Speaker 2: build a culture where everybody stays together. I mean, you know, look,

486
00:23:21,920 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 2: marriages roll apart, friendships roll apart. I know this guy

487
00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 2: thirty five years Trust me, I really wanted it to

488
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,359
Speaker 2: fall apart after the first fight, but it didn't. I tried,

489
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:32,720
Speaker 2: but he just hung in there. But uh no, but

490
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:36,040
Speaker 2: to have a friendship for thirty years or thirty plus

491
00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 2: years in this business, Look, how many people come and go.

492
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:40,440
Speaker 2: It's crazy.

493
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:44,399
Speaker 3: So Matt the sucker for pain obviously, Yeah, Matt, did

494
00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:46,679
Speaker 3: you know when you were fighting, did you ever envision

495
00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,639
Speaker 3: yourself as being you know, of course you were a

496
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 3: jiu jitsu coach. Did you envision yourself as this guy

497
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 3: who would bring up a whole team of mixed martial

498
00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,159
Speaker 3: arts fighters to the highest level. No?

499
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,879
Speaker 2: Did I envision myself at what point, like, you know,

500
00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 2: when you were fighting.

501
00:24:03,680 --> 00:24:05,120
Speaker 3: When you were fighting, do you say, you know that's

502
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,399
Speaker 3: gonna be my next move I'm gonna kind of go

503
00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 3: into coaching and kind of bring guys up.

504
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 4: No, you know, I always you know, we came up

505
00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,879
Speaker 4: very similar Kenny with with you know, the Brazilian jiu

506
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 4: jitsu boom, You know what I mean? It was like,

507
00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,920
Speaker 4: you know, I my dream was just the one day

508
00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:25,440
Speaker 4: be able to run a school and teach jiu jitsu.

509
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 4: And my earliest dream is like maybe I could have

510
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:31,520
Speaker 4: like a challenge match just before the first UFC and

511
00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:33,359
Speaker 4: then when I you know, then with the whole you

512
00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 4: when I became when I started fighting The whole thing

513
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 4: with the coaching happened very organically with.

514
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 2: With with Longo, like it didn't. That wasn't a dream

515
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 2: of mine. I'm not a like.

516
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:45,879
Speaker 4: I'll coach my guys in jiu jitsu as far as

517
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,560
Speaker 4: I like making I like I'm I'm not. I'm not

518
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:51,920
Speaker 4: even a big coach going to jiu jitsu tournaments. I'll

519
00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,560
Speaker 4: say more of I like making people be able to

520
00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:58,639
Speaker 4: defend themselves and not get bully type of thing.

521
00:24:58,760 --> 00:24:59,760
Speaker 2: That's my like.

522
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:01,960
Speaker 4: I like putting anybody in my position that with me,

523
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 4: that in that thing in Vegas with that drunk. If

524
00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 4: any one of my students they whip me for six months,

525
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 4: They're able to take care of that. They're not get

526
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,200
Speaker 4: embarrassed in front of their family. So I'm more of

527
00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:10,800
Speaker 4: that route.

528
00:25:10,800 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 2: I'm not even interested in bringing up the next champion.

529
00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 2: That's not my thing. That's race thing. But Ray and

530
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:19,840
Speaker 2: me did it organically with guys from our schools that

531
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 2: we liked. I don't. That's how it really happened, and

532
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,600
Speaker 2: that's how it is now. I'm not. I'm not. I don't.

533
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:28,680
Speaker 4: Just sometimes in in uh in Ac, if we have

534
00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,240
Speaker 4: guys fighting and there's another guy I'll jump in the corner.

00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 4: I don't know him as well from the other guys

538
00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:42,600
Speaker 4: I'm starting too, But like Lago, like, no, that'll happen

539
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,720
Speaker 4: organically too. But like the guys we have, we're not

540
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:49,000
Speaker 4: like me and Lago were talking about this and whatever

Speaker 4: but logo, we were talking about some shit fucking that.

543
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:57,280
Speaker 4: Don't we have enough friends anyway, But we're talking about

544
00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,720
Speaker 4: guys like we're talking about guys like like the ship

545
00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 4: that happened with like Greg Jackson and like they had

546
00:26:03,920 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 4: Rashad Evans on and yeah, and I'm not taking anybody.

Speaker 2: with George Saint Pierre. They had Diego but I ain't

553
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,840
Speaker 2: know this. George is the next big thing. We're not light.

554
00:26:22,960 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 2: I'm not judging them.

555
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:27,560
Speaker 4: Maybe I am, but anyway, no, I'm only fucking but

556
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,879
Speaker 4: my thing is me and Longorn fucking like that. I

557
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:31,680
Speaker 4: the fucking about bringing it.

558
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:32,560
Speaker 2: We're not. We didn't.

559
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:34,879
Speaker 4: We didn't go to Georgia to fucking hunt down Morob.

560
00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 4: That happened totally organically, thank god. If you guys know

561
00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 4: his story, thank god the way, thank god he met

562

Speaker 4: him at Longos in the city at that time, and

563
00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:44,720
Speaker 4: he was he was linked up with the wrong people.

564
00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:47,399
Speaker 4: But it's just it all happens organic.

565
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,399
Speaker 2: Now, we love Morob like I think love and I

566
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,000

00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 2: the way the guys together.

577
00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,720
Speaker 1: Ten years, The way your athletes Matt and Ray swear

578
00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,159
Speaker 1: by you guys is truly one of the most special

579
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:24,600
Speaker 1: things in all the mixed martial arts.

580
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:24,760
Speaker 2: Right.

581
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 1: Whether it's Matta Royo spending time in Tampa, but you

582
00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 1: know that he always wants you guys prominently involved, right,

583
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 1: Or it's Morob d Wallace really doing an entire training

584
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 1: camp in Vegas, and yet the collective value of you

585
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,120
Speaker 1: two individuals on fight night is such that he makes

586
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: sure that you're there. It speaks to your you know,

587
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:47,200
Speaker 1: collective brilliance. Oly, that's mar not the fight.

588
00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:53,600
Speaker 2: Component Outrob is loyalty, character, integrity. He's not going to

589
00:27:53,680 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 2: have that strip from He comes from humble beginnings. You

590
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,680
Speaker 2: could end this ship tomorrow from people will never understand.

591
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:03,160
Speaker 2: This is mind boggling to me. He'll be happy. I don't.

592
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,879
Speaker 2: I think that guy go back to doing construction tomorrow

593
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:09,679
Speaker 2: and behal. You can't change that. People. It's not always

594
00:28:09,720 --> 00:28:12,560
Speaker 2: about the money. We've seen people with millions that are

595
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,480
Speaker 2: just miserable and they can't get out of their own way.

596
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:18,680
Speaker 2: This is different, man, and I tell you that's the culture.

597
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,960
Speaker 2: I want to be a part of. Not a you know,

598
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 2: like a you know, eating your other people to get ahead.

599
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:28,520
Speaker 2: Everybody's squashing somebody to move forward. It. I don't like it.

600
00:28:28,600 --> 00:28:30,920
Speaker 2: I never did like it. Me and Matt never had that.

601
00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 2: And that was let me just let me give a

602
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 2: shout to John Wood too, because he's a great guy.

603
00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 1: Again going back to the John Wood shout out, Matty,

604
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,280
Speaker 1: I thought he was joking. He's going back from all right,

605
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:41,800
Speaker 1: now you know.

606
00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 2: What it is? John? I told John, I go, John,

607
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 2: you're a special person if you could even deal with

608
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,240
Speaker 2: this group, because this is a tight knit group. So

609
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 2: it goes to show you how nice John is. And

610
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 2: I think where John did a great job because he

611
00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:55,800
Speaker 2: didn't try to change him a role. You know, he

612
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 2: wasn't bad and spinning take that. He took what he

613
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 2: had and ian hand, and I think he understood it. Look, Morob,

614
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:05,880
Speaker 2: I could call anybody into the gym right now and

615
00:29:05,920 --> 00:29:09,000
Speaker 2: they'll tell you that they've seen Morob do that every

616
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 2: time he's in the gym. That's nothing new. So Morob's

617
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:14,000
Speaker 2: gonna do what Morob's gonna do. That's why I have

618
00:29:14,560 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 2: no problem, like almost wherever he trains, as long as

619
00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,800
Speaker 2: you don't ruin what he has, which I think John

620
00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:23,200
Speaker 2: did a great job it just you know, because I

621
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 2: was down there a couple of weeks ago. I watched

622
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 2: you know, a couple of things. So he did a

623
00:29:26,960 --> 00:29:28,920
Speaker 2: fantastic job. I want to shout out John Wood and

624
00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 2: his mother, who really calmed me down before the fight.

625
00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,280
Speaker 2: So she's a sweetheart. They got a good thing going.

626
00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 2: And like again, if he could deal with us, you're

Speaker 2: knows we have a sense to you.

660
00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,680
Speaker 1: I will say that sometimes for me as a commentator,

661
00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,160
Speaker 1: I'm guilty of being like, oh, that's that's a good

662
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 1: little mind trick.

663
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,000
Speaker 2: Well, well everybody that that's what happens. Everybody does that, though,

664
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 2: everybody wants the new thing, and they know what they do, Longo,

665
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 2: then they go to the fucking treadmill with a snork

666
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 2: on doing that ship. So put the snorkle on, and

667
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 2: I can tell you that right now, you Robert Snorkel,

668
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,560
Speaker 2: He'll stuff it up your wrist. I'm not even joking.

669
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:56,640
Speaker 1: Hey, if you're just on the audio side right now,

670
00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:58,760
Speaker 1: that is the voice of UFC Hall of Famer Matt

671
00:31:58,880 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 1: Sarah and I do have to ask you, Maddie, and

672
00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,640
Speaker 1: again I really appreciate you hopping on today to enhance

673
00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:05,960
Speaker 1: the whole show. But these two gentlemen, Ray long Goo

674
00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: and Kenny Floorian have basically said on the show today

675
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 1: they've never seen anyone like Morob Dwallash, Willie, You've been

676
00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,680
Speaker 1: there every step of the way, Dana White looking for

677
00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: a fight. What, yes, have you ever seen anything like him?

678
00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 1: Because the three of us really don't have any point

679
00:32:21,160 --> 00:32:21,800
Speaker 1: of comparison.

680
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 4: No, you know what I really like about this fight

681
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 4: when I I just watched it back and you see

682
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,160
Speaker 4: the commentary, You hear the commentary and everything is, uh,

683
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 4: now what we that's nothing new for us. I mean,

684
00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 4: we knew we could do that, he could do that

685
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:39,040
Speaker 4: fucking ten rounds. Literally, I mean we like, I mean,

686
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,160
Speaker 4: we've seen him do it, man, go see him do it.

687
00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:43,600
Speaker 4: I mean, John Wood seen him do it. It's not

688
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,400
Speaker 4: it's not anything out of the ordinary for us. But

689
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:50,120
Speaker 4: now when you hear DC say all right, now he's

690
00:32:50,200 --> 00:32:51,960
Speaker 4: keeping that pressure for three rounds. Now we're in the

691
00:32:52,040 --> 00:32:53,200
Speaker 4: championship rounds.

692
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 2: He's not stopping. He did not watch the fifth round,

693
00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 2: watch the first round, tell me getting fucking dude. In

694
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 2: the last round, he's like, now now I'm gonna stands

695
00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:05,480
Speaker 2: up with him, like, oh shit.

696
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,560
Speaker 1: Man, like moron gone down, Like he's just so good, dude.

697
00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,320
Speaker 4: He is just so on point and and and like

698
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 4: like me and Longa were talking about earlier, is what

699
00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,120
Speaker 4: people don't realize is people don't go.

700
00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:21,480
Speaker 2: For a lot of shots because it's taxing. But you

701
00:33:21,560 --> 00:33:24,520
Speaker 2: know what else is taxing fighting off those tops those shots.

702
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:26,520
Speaker 2: Peter jan was doing a great job.

703
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 4: Look at who he's taking away the single, like taking

704
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 4: away the single, like taking away the double, taking away dude, but.

705
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,400
Speaker 2: That's coming out. That's do that for thirty eight times.

706
00:33:33,560 --> 00:33:36,320
Speaker 2: I mean it's it's fucking so it's like they both

707
00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:40,320
Speaker 2: got the same energy bar Morobs isn't fucking changing. It's

708
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,800
Speaker 2: not getting any lower and the other guy over time.

709
00:33:44,000 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 4: Over the normally in the past, when we see Pdeon

710
00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:49,360
Speaker 4: fight and he'll give away around it's like, fuck, man,

711
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 4: he doesn't look worried between mounds. He's just he'll give

712
00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 4: away two rounds and hey, dude, what's going on? And

713
00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 4: next thing you know, oh he's Oh he's laying He's dude,

714
00:33:58,120 --> 00:34:01,080
Speaker 4: we knew, Longo will tell you we knew. John Wood.

715
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,360
Speaker 4: Everybody in the corner. The third round was the telling tale.

716
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,000
Speaker 4: Is something gonna change here?

717
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 2: Did he? Did he fucking download enough fucking data. He's

718
00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:16,320
Speaker 2: downloading the data. Listen the Russian fucking but listen, something

719
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:17,839
Speaker 2: went wrong with that fucking.

720
00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 4: Data, because dude, you know the thing is with Rob.

721
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,520
Speaker 4: You'll watch it and you'll know exactly Rob's funny. He

722
00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 4: was gonna be like, oh, they're watching, Oh, this ain't

723
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:30,240
Speaker 4: that great? The strikings, this might takedowns of that dude.

724
00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:34,480
Speaker 4: Pressure is a whole weapon in itself, and he has

725
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,680
Speaker 4: that in the arsenal, you know what I mean, the pressure,

726
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 4: And it's not unless you.

727
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 2: Put him out, you know what I mean. If he's

728
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,799
Speaker 2: not stopping, So it's really real, right, Yeah, And I'm

729
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,320
Speaker 2: gonna tell you, Kenny, I knew Kenny and John I

730
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:48,920
Speaker 2: knew after the first round, like again, he had ninety

731
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 2: five percent he was gonna win that fight. The only

732
00:34:51,040 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 2: thing could be a fluke because man, the way he

733
00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 2: was biting on those fakes, Kenny, he didn't know what

734
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,879
Speaker 2: was coming. I knew like and I knew Moron could

735
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,240
Speaker 2: keep it up. All he had to do was stay focused.

736
00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 2: He's got great, great fault. He focused for twenty five

737
00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 2: minutes straight. I mean he didn't he didn't let up

738
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 2: at all. And again he off balanced him so much.

739
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 2: You know, it was almost like the more you do,

740
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:14,759
Speaker 2: the less he does type of deal. And I don't

741
00:35:14,760 --> 00:35:16,759
Speaker 2: care if we didn't even give a shit if he

742
00:35:16,800 --> 00:35:19,120
Speaker 2: got the takedowns. But when he was going for him,

743
00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:23,560
Speaker 2: guess what. Pidia wasn't doing anything. He could never set

744
00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 2: his feet to get off those power shots. Then he

745
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:29,640
Speaker 2: started swinging and missing. Big Morob could see that shit

746
00:35:29,719 --> 00:35:32,919
Speaker 2: coming a mile away. Just a beautiful job for even

747
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 2: like young athletes, young MMA guys watching you know, coming up,

748
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 2: like the way the way he the way he fought,

749
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 2: is the way he trains. That's what you want from people.

750
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:46,440
Speaker 2: Because some guys trained great, then they get in there,

751
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:48,920
Speaker 2: they might have performance anxiety. They don't do what you

752
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:52,440
Speaker 2: see him doing the gym. This guy did. Again, My

753
00:35:52,560 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 2: perfect case scenario was that fight that he just kept

754
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,479
Speaker 2: going and off balancing them and doing what he was doing,

755
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 2: and that's what he did. Was to me, it was

756
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:07,920
Speaker 2: a championship fight. I had the same emotions everything five rounds. Emotionally,

757
00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,880
Speaker 2: it was a championship fight for me. And he's in

758
00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,759
Speaker 2: a great spot. And you know, even a thing with

759
00:36:13,880 --> 00:36:15,399
Speaker 2: him and Al Joe Man like, you know, we would

760
00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,680
Speaker 2: talk being met Withal with that too. They make each

761
00:36:17,719 --> 00:36:20,520
Speaker 2: other better. You're not gonna break that. They're not gonna

762
00:36:20,520 --> 00:36:22,560
Speaker 2: break on this, you know what I mean? And nobody's

763
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,960
Speaker 2: all from Moravia. Title shot? Why are we even talking

764
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 2: about that? Hell, he's not gonna get a shot before O'Malley.

765
00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:30,919
Speaker 2: Why is he even being bothered with that shit? There's

766
00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:32,280
Speaker 2: so many things that could happen.

767
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,600
Speaker 1: We can talk about that for sure, And I want

768
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,840
Speaker 1: to be respectful of Matt's time, but real quick on

769
00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:40,000
Speaker 1: this fight because I'm getting the sentiment from both of you.

770
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: It was a masterclass yet you both sort of knew

771
00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,120
Speaker 1: that he could do that, thought he would do that,

772
00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:49,480
Speaker 1: But then in an equal part, you're also blown away. Right,

773
00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:51,600
Speaker 1: It's like you knew he could do that, right, Matt,

774
00:36:51,760 --> 00:36:53,680
Speaker 1: You thought he was gonna do that, and yet we're

775
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:57,120
Speaker 1: all still totally fucking blown away that he could take

776
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:00,640
Speaker 1: that showcase spot against the guy Pierrianva everybody anointed as

777
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,600
Speaker 1: like the greatest band of weight of all time. You

778
00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,879
Speaker 1: do that to him over twenty five minutes. Bro, great,

779
00:37:05,280 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 1: I'm still shaking.

780
00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:08,920
Speaker 2: H Yeah, man, I'm gonna tell you something I'm getting.

781
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:12,480
Speaker 2: I'm developing something that's not good in the corner. I'm

782
00:37:12,520 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 2: starting to sit there in awe of the guys that

783
00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:18,719
Speaker 2: I'm around. Like when al Jo was even though they

784
00:37:18,760 --> 00:37:20,799
Speaker 2: could say Deyla show was sharted, I was sitting there going,

785
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:22,840
Speaker 2: I just can't believe what he's doing to him, Like

786
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 2: this isn't And that's the same thing in this fight.

787
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,920
Speaker 2: I thought there would be more resistance where he might

788
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,879
Speaker 2: have to come back from some adversities, and I start

789
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:35,480
Speaker 2: sitting there going, holy fucking shit, this kid is fucking

790
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 2: off the charts. I'm with John, I'm still blown away

791
00:37:38,160 --> 00:37:42,200
Speaker 2: by what I saw and anybody that's not don't even

792
00:37:42,280 --> 00:37:44,720
Speaker 2: talk to me, man, because this is not an easy

793
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:48,279
Speaker 2: thing to do against the guy like Pierre Tjan. It

794
00:37:48,480 --> 00:37:51,399
Speaker 2: just is it. No, I mean, I think everybody knows

795
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:52,120
Speaker 2: what they're dealing with.

796
00:37:52,200 --> 00:37:56,000
Speaker 4: The hardest fight in the division obviously besides al Jo,

797
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,400
Speaker 4: I believe was Jose Aldough because of his takedown defense

798
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,560
Speaker 4: and you know, he spends no time on his back

799
00:38:02,640 --> 00:38:04,919
Speaker 4: unless he's getting put there wipe by punches by Max

800
00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 4: Holloway and uh, he's shown in the passes he's he

801
00:38:08,600 --> 00:38:11,040
Speaker 4: he deals really well with guys looking to put him down.

802
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 4: So that fight and we and also Jan made the

803
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,799
Speaker 4: fight also where we're talking about that where although oh man,

804
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:21,040
Speaker 4: he's not doing nothing, he's just looking up against age.

805
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,160
Speaker 2: Well, you're not doing nothing trying to get away. You're

806
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,520
Speaker 2: not doing what are you? He's not doing anything, You're

807
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:27,200
Speaker 2: doing less. See that was Peter again.

808
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, Peter Yan was just running out of funk. He's

809
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,719
Speaker 4: running the team. Morob was just out fighting it.

810
00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 2: They ain't blamed Moran for that fight, but if if

811
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,120
Speaker 2: Aldo would have fought back like Pete was trying to win,

812
00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,120
Speaker 2: the same ship would have happened. It would have been

813
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,480
Speaker 2: looked similar. It was jan It was Aldo that didn't

814
00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 2: make that fight. Honestly, I'm telling you this is Yon

815
00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:50,879
Speaker 2: never stopped trying and that's why it was a better

816
00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 2: fight because anywhere.

817
00:38:53,840 --> 00:38:56,120
Speaker 3: Although knew if he tried to match that energy he

818
00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:00,400
Speaker 3: would have been exhausted. He was being efficient, but in

819
00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,600
Speaker 3: being efficient, he wasn't winning to fight one.

820
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,440
Speaker 2: And I think, like, again, some of these things I

821
00:39:06,520 --> 00:39:09,279
Speaker 2: look at, they're just they're clear to me. Like and

822
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 2: I hear people talk, you know sometimes you know, you

823
00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,160
Speaker 2: hear people break down a fight because they there from

824
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,960
Speaker 2: a different part of the country. You start thinking, well,

825
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,919
Speaker 2: that guy sounds like he knows what he's talking about,

826
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,759
Speaker 2: you know, like you get ball, you know, it's what

827
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,720
Speaker 2: it's fucking fighting. Yeah, it's not that. It's not rocket science.

828
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,640
Speaker 2: It really isn't, you know what I mean.

829
00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:31,879
Speaker 1: So so I know it has already been a busy

830
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 1: Monday for Matt Sarah taped his podcast. You were probably

831
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 1: on the mats at six o'clock this morning, So let

832
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,000
Speaker 1: me get you out of.

833
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:37,360
Speaker 4: Here on this.

834
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 1: And maybe you don't even care about the immediate future

835
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:43,000
Speaker 1: for my Rob Dwallis Willie, but you both know he

836
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,200
Speaker 1: hasn't been able to compete as often as he would

837
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:48,400
Speaker 1: like because when you get to this point of the division, right,

838
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 1: it's only big fights. So do you think that it's

839
00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,840
Speaker 1: going to be like a a Sanhagen type fight, you know,

840
00:39:55,960 --> 00:39:59,000
Speaker 1: a dominant Cruise type fight, even though the ranking doesn't align, Like,

841
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 1: what are you going to do with Morob who really

842
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:05,680
Speaker 1: has earned a title fight at this point based upon

843
00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:06,719
Speaker 1: what we saw Saturday night?

844
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:11,240
Speaker 4: Well, I'm not gonna I believe Morob's up for anything.

845
00:40:11,400 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 4: Like he's the type of guy where but I'm not.

846
00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 4: I'm not his manager, I'm his friend. I mean, I'm

847
00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 4: coach when needed, you know what I'm saying, you know,

848
00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 4: but uh, you know, whatever he chooses, I'll be by

849
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 4: his side myself. In Longo and uh, you know, I

850
00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,120
Speaker 4: just think that he's already won, like Longo said, he's

851
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,560
Speaker 4: won in life. And another thing that got me really emotional,

852
00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 4: especially when I've seen it on air is the mountains.

853
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 2: You hear DC go Yo? Did they hand out these

854
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:42,800
Speaker 2: Georgian flags? Like there was so many the support for him.

855
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:45,239
Speaker 4: Because you got to see because when it's it's it's

856
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:47,879
Speaker 4: a guy, you know, and he's the type of guy

857
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 4: that you want to get that kind of.

858
00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,160
Speaker 2: Love, like, because because he's the best type of guy.

859
00:40:52,320 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 4: He's just the best. He's one of the best people

860
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,320
Speaker 4: I know. So for him to get oh and I

861
00:40:56,440 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 4: know back home, it's like ridiculous. Remember what Giga Gega

862
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,759
Speaker 4: was telling us long ago. He's like, this is the

863
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,120
Speaker 4: biggest fight in the history of his fucking country.

864
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 2: It's big, man, It's so big there in that way,

865
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:12,799
Speaker 2: like I'm telling you right now, the guy guy. They're

866
00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 2: building a statue of that guy.

867
00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:14,680
Speaker 4: I know that.

868
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:17,959
Speaker 2: I look. I stressed this to Morob the whole week

869
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 2: I was there. It's like, Morob, this isn't personal, it's

870
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 2: business man, and we're in the business of fucking winning.

871
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:26,440
Speaker 2: I don't you can't not against a guy like this.

872
00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:29,080
Speaker 2: You don't want to get crazy, you know what I mean.

873
00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:34,000
Speaker 2: And I think with the emotions way, I've never seen

874
00:41:34,080 --> 00:41:36,440
Speaker 2: him like this. That's the first time I've seen him

875
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,200
Speaker 2: act the way he was acting so to me, and

876
00:41:39,480 --> 00:41:42,080
Speaker 2: Matt knows that too. The pressure when Giga was telling him,

877
00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,759
Speaker 2: I want to I love Giga Chikazi too, man, And

878
00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:48,800
Speaker 2: what a great influence he's been on Morob too. Also.

879
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:51,040
Speaker 2: I mean the Georgian is just nice people. And we

880
00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:53,359
Speaker 2: had a we had a uh you know, the team dinner.

881
00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:57,800
Speaker 2: Giga stopped by to say hello. At the end, somebody

882
00:41:57,880 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 2: picked up the tampa was Giga Chikazi. Wow. I mean

883
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,160
Speaker 2: it was not a it was not a small tab man.

884
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,440
Speaker 2: So that's what I'm saying. These guys have a different

885
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:09,200
Speaker 2: view on life. They come from humble beginnings. For them

886
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:10,759
Speaker 2: to pick up a tab like that, even if the

887
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,239
Speaker 2: guy had no money, it doesn't. It just it's it's

888
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 2: so refreshing. I can't That's what I It's refreshing to

889
00:42:18,080 --> 00:42:21,520
Speaker 2: me to see people acting like fucking people and not

890
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:26,920
Speaker 2: like animals. It just is, I don't know, speaking of animals,

891
00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:28,319
Speaker 2: you got that.

892
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:38,959
Speaker 1: Cheesecake, Maddy, really appreciate you hopping on today, man, Thanks

893
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 1: for having me.

894
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 2: Thanks for sharing the minute. There's been a pleasure. It's fun,

895
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:46,719
Speaker 2: all right, guys.

896
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,280
Speaker 1: Interrupting the ray Longo menuta today by design, So hopefully

897
00:42:56,320 --> 00:42:57,479
Speaker 1: that was okay with you, Redman.

898
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,279
Speaker 2: Can you guys warn me next time?

899
00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:00,919
Speaker 3: That's on my point.

900
00:43:01,520 --> 00:43:04,160
Speaker 2: It's like literally like you're driving at twenty miles an

901
00:43:04,200 --> 00:43:05,880
Speaker 2: how and a guy hits you going one hundred and

902
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:07,800
Speaker 2: eighty je holy.

903
00:43:08,600 --> 00:43:10,640
Speaker 1: So as that was all going on, I spilled my

904
00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:16,080
Speaker 1: water all over my broadcast table. Here, chargers soaking, wet phone, soaking,

905
00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 1: wet pens everywhere. There's water underneath my desk cover. So

906
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,200
Speaker 1: this is going to be a little bit hairy here

907
00:43:23,239 --> 00:43:26,160
Speaker 1: over the last five minutes. But Ray, yes, you got

908
00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: pretty animated when you're talking about the title picture, right,

909
00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,240
Speaker 1: And first let me just acknowledge that in this UFC

910
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:35,160
Speaker 1: Men's bandam weeight division that has never been stronger nor deeper,

911
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:37,839
Speaker 1: seventy five deep. You got the number one and number

912
00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:40,360
Speaker 1: two guys in the world right now. Love it crazy.

913
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:43,200
Speaker 1: But here's the quote from Reyna White, and it's probably

914
00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:45,080
Speaker 1: going to upset you to whatever degree. And I do

915
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,000
Speaker 1: think you're right, Like, it's not like he's fighting for

916
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,160
Speaker 1: the title in the next six months, so perhaps this

917
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:52,239
Speaker 1: will solve itself. But here's the quote from Dana White.

918
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:53,960
Speaker 1: You know, back in the early days, the camps were

919
00:43:54,000 --> 00:43:55,560
Speaker 1: so small, you didn't have a lot of options. So

920
00:43:55,600 --> 00:43:57,160
Speaker 1: we had a lot of these guys saying, oh, he's

921
00:43:57,200 --> 00:43:58,839
Speaker 1: my friend, he's my friend. You can still be friends

922
00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:00,879
Speaker 1: and want what your friend had. It'd be a really

923
00:44:00,920 --> 00:44:02,759
Speaker 1: bad idea for a rob to go down that path.

924
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:04,799
Speaker 1: Does Mirob want a shot at the title or would

925
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:06,880
Speaker 1: he rather have people under him jump over him and

926
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,719
Speaker 1: have him to take on all these different top guys

927
00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:10,200
Speaker 1: when he's not even getting the title shot when he's

928
00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 1: next for it. That is a personal decision that he

929
00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,120
Speaker 1: needs to make if that's what he wants to do.

930
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 1: I can tell you how that story ends. It's not

931
00:44:15,719 --> 00:44:17,640
Speaker 1: a good ending to that story. But he's a big boy.

932
00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,560
Speaker 1: He can figure that out on his own. So what

933
00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 1: is your expectation as to what happens from a rob

934
00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 1: say over the course of the rest of twenty twenty three?

935
00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:31,239
Speaker 2: Well, let me look, you got to remember too, John

936
00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:34,480
Speaker 2: like promote fights, and I understand exactly what Dana is

937
00:44:34,520 --> 00:44:38,200
Speaker 2: talking about because we go through it every week. This camp.

938
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:40,319
Speaker 2: Don't want to fight that camp. I know this guy,

939
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 2: I get it, I get it. But this is a

940
00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,600
Speaker 2: little different. And is he promising can Morob have the

941
00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,839
Speaker 2: title shot over showan O'Malley that's number one?

942
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:48,400
Speaker 4: Right?

943
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,000
Speaker 1: Does he get the winner of Sohuto and al Jo

944
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:51,600
Speaker 1: right now?

945
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,120
Speaker 2: You want to guarantee him that you want to do

946
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,720
Speaker 2: that because he'll take it, and then al Jo probably

947
00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:58,279
Speaker 2: will win that fight. He's gonna win that fight and

948
00:44:58,320 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 2: he'll move up. Al Jo was de cool for the

949
00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:02,960
Speaker 2: belt in the ring. I bet we were in the

950
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:06,760
Speaker 2: act the guy. I'm not joking. Al Joe has matured

951
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,359
Speaker 2: into one of the finest people I know. I love

952
00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:11,239
Speaker 2: this guy. I love what he's done with his life.

953
00:45:11,800 --> 00:45:13,960
Speaker 2: I love the way he breaks stuff down like he's

954
00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:16,400
Speaker 2: just a good guy. It's not a trust me, it's

955
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,200
Speaker 2: not a problem. They want to make it a problem.

956
00:45:18,600 --> 00:45:20,320
Speaker 2: It's not going to be a problem. I think everything's

957
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:21,920
Speaker 2: going to play out exactly the way it's going to

958
00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 2: play out. Nobody's jumping over him. Give him, give him,

959
00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,279
Speaker 2: you want to give him a guaranteed title? What are

960
00:45:27,320 --> 00:45:30,640
Speaker 2: we talking title fight for? O' Maanley's got the next shot.

961
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:35,000
Speaker 1: Against no and I largely I agree with you, but

962
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,960
Speaker 1: I'm a fan. Yes, and there's nobody from a rob

963
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:41,319
Speaker 1: to fight at this point. Based upon his body of work,

964
00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,520
Speaker 1: he has earned a shot at the title. That's why

965
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,680
Speaker 1: we're having the conversation. So Hey, if you guys like

966
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,239
Speaker 1: and Cheeto vera candidly, if he beats Corey Sanhagen, he's

967
00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,040
Speaker 1: not taking another fight before he fights for the belt,

968
00:45:53,560 --> 00:45:56,880
Speaker 1: and he would have five straight wins, and there's a's

969
00:45:57,040 --> 00:45:59,440
Speaker 1: you got four number one contenders right now. But it

970
00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:02,960
Speaker 1: sounds to me like, well, we gotta wait till what

971
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 1: happens in man.

972
00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,640
Speaker 2: I think that's when. Yeah, that's that's the key is.

973
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:10,399
Speaker 2: Let's wait till laughter May sixth, and uh, we'll see

974
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:13,160
Speaker 2: how everything plays out. But that's why I say that.

975
00:46:13,320 --> 00:46:15,880
Speaker 2: To talk about it before that is just conjecture that

976
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 2: I don't know, how does it play out? I mean,

977
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 2: I don't know Halfaela's sons. I had, like, fucking what

978
00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,600
Speaker 2: twelve wins in a row? Do you ever get a

979
00:46:23,680 --> 00:46:24,279
Speaker 2: title shot?

980
00:46:24,960 --> 00:46:25,160
Speaker 1: Yeah?

981
00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:26,439
Speaker 2: Where was his title shot?

982
00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:27,080
Speaker 4: Like?

983
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:30,919
Speaker 2: People, just dude, it's bullshit. Everybody knows what they want

984
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 2: to do. They they have the UFC has the next

985
00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:35,960
Speaker 2: year or two already planned out in advance, as far

986
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,560
Speaker 2: as I'm concerned. You know, there's been a million guys,

987
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:41,600
Speaker 2: but Tony Ferguson, a lot of guys got skipped over

988
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:45,120
Speaker 2: the great wins. Why you're focusing on Morob now? Well,

989
00:46:45,440 --> 00:46:48,400
Speaker 2: I felt like I'm just saying that.

990
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 1: No, I know, but I felt like Cheeto didn't need

991
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:53,080
Speaker 1: this Cory Sandhagen fight, Marlon Chieto Vera. That four five

992
00:46:53,120 --> 00:46:55,279
Speaker 1: winning streak on paper, right now, that's worthy of a

993
00:46:55,320 --> 00:46:56,880
Speaker 1: title shot. But it kind of is what it is.

994
00:46:57,320 --> 00:46:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, but why isn't he getting the title shot he

995
00:46:59,200 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 2: beats showing on man? No.

996
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 1: I agree, Well, because he's because you know what, he's

997
00:47:03,680 --> 00:47:05,919
Speaker 1: a promoter's dream and he's willing to headline against Corey

998
00:47:05,960 --> 00:47:08,399
Speaker 1: Sandhagen and bet on himself, you know. But I don't

999
00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:10,919
Speaker 1: think it's a crazy thing for the promoter, Dana White,

1000
00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,360
Speaker 1: to try to lay the foundation to potentially get teammates

1001
00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:16,320
Speaker 1: to fight each other. I mean, we all have different agendas,

1002
00:47:16,360 --> 00:47:16,480
Speaker 1: you know.

1003
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 2: But I understand he is, But I like this so

1004
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:23,439
Speaker 2: many other there's too many moving parts to even look

1005
00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:24,120
Speaker 2: at it right now.

1006
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 1: I agree, and you and I are aligned, and perhaps

1007
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,239
Speaker 1: I'm putting the cart before the horse as well. All right,

1008
00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get you out of here on this. I

1009
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,440
Speaker 1: have a tweet from UFC fighter Zach Paunga. I was

1010
00:47:34,560 --> 00:47:38,560
Speaker 1: cornering Curtis Blades when Morob thought Marlin, but I and

1011
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 1: we shared a locker room. The last three minutes of

1012
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,640
Speaker 1: his warm up was just Ray Longo screaming machine, over

1013
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,880
Speaker 1: and over again. It gets me hype just thinking about it.

1014
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:53,080
Speaker 1: And you know, Henry Hoof likes to stay keep it simple, stupid,

1015
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:57,920
Speaker 1: and I just think your ability to motivate athletes and

1016
00:47:58,120 --> 00:48:01,480
Speaker 1: to say something as simple his machine a hundred times

1017
00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:02,160
Speaker 1: in that moment.

1018
00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:02,880
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1019
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:05,000
Speaker 1: I just thought it was cool to see him acknowledge

1020
00:48:05,040 --> 00:48:07,920
Speaker 1: you because you had a way to fire up not

1021
00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 1: just Mirab but us and everybody else. So just a

1022
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:11,560
Speaker 1: lot of long ago love out there.

1023
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:13,360
Speaker 2: Well, I want to say thank you very much to

1024
00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:17,560
Speaker 2: Zach for that, But that's definitely exactly normally we do

1025
00:48:17,640 --> 00:48:19,920
Speaker 2: it on the bus right over, Kenny. I don't remember

1026
00:48:20,000 --> 00:48:22,920
Speaker 2: doing it in the locker room, but I'm sure we

1027
00:48:23,360 --> 00:48:25,239
Speaker 2: re enacted in the locker room because normally on the

1028
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,399
Speaker 2: bus right over we just go nuts with that. It's

1029
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,279
Speaker 2: been like a you know, like a not a superstition,

1030
00:48:30,400 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 2: but like a habit that we do. And I don't know,

1031
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:37,320
Speaker 2: look the guy. That's why I say it's it's different.

1032
00:48:37,400 --> 00:48:40,920
Speaker 2: It's not a team of two hundred guys. You know,

1033
00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:44,319
Speaker 2: there's maybe ten twenty guys, which even twenty is too much,

1034
00:48:44,360 --> 00:48:46,600
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. But there's a core, there's

1035
00:48:46,640 --> 00:48:51,239
Speaker 2: a nucleus of people that they know that everybody has

1036
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:54,200
Speaker 2: their back no matter when lose a drawer, it has

1037
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 2: to mean something. It's the way I've been doing it

1038
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:59,160
Speaker 2: for years. I'm not stopping it. You know. I might

1039
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:01,680
Speaker 2: be more of a cheer leading out and even more

1040
00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:04,080
Speaker 2: hands on, but I know what I'm looking at. I

1041
00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,120
Speaker 2: love I get a lot of help from a lot

1042
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:08,759
Speaker 2: of people. I could give you a list and start

1043
00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:10,480
Speaker 2: thanking them, you know, right now.

1044
00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:14,319
Speaker 1: But it's just like the security guard helping you down

1045
00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 1: the stairs for example.

1046
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:18,000
Speaker 2: No, he never helped I go down off of Aljo's back.

1047
00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:20,360
Speaker 2: If you watch the security guy, but I think he

1048
00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:21,040
Speaker 2: wants to help me.

1049
00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,600
Speaker 1: I know they want to touch greatness. They just want to.

1050
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,040
Speaker 2: But look, if I got to be a cheerleader, I'm

1051
00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:29,320
Speaker 2: going to be a cheerleader. Just it's about getting a

1052
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,719
Speaker 2: w And like again, if I could never do what

1053
00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 2: Zach says, like what he's saying, I could never do

1054
00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 2: if I wasn't totally emotionally invested in these guys, that's

1055
00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:43,600
Speaker 2: the thing. And how could you do that when you

1056
00:49:43,680 --> 00:49:47,360
Speaker 2: have thirty people coming from all over the place for

1057
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:49,120
Speaker 2: a week or two and I'm jumping in here. I

1058
00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:51,279
Speaker 2: had this conversation even with John would I don't know

1059
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 2: how you do it in Vegas, Like I could never

1060
00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,040
Speaker 2: do that. I gotta get it takes what does it take?

1061
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,840
Speaker 2: You think it takes three three months to attach yourself

1062
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,520
Speaker 2: to a guy, you know, learn about his family and

1063
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 2: you know, meet people that he knows. It takes a

1064
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:08,040
Speaker 2: long time, and that that that bond. The stronger you

1065
00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:10,919
Speaker 2: get that bond. Look, I don't know how this thing's

1066
00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,000
Speaker 2: gonna go down, you know, like in the end. But

1067
00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:15,799
Speaker 2: you know, we're in the history books forever. There's no doubt,

1068
00:50:15,840 --> 00:50:16,560
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.

1069
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:17,440
Speaker 4: Like, and.

1070
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,880
Speaker 2: I just wouldn't trade it for anything. I can't like

1071
00:50:23,080 --> 00:50:25,680
Speaker 2: we are we got. I got a fifty five hundred

1072
00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,440
Speaker 2: square foot place, fifty five hundred square and he's got

1073
00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:32,600
Speaker 2: thirty thousand square foot places with billion are money behind them, right,

1074
00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:34,879
Speaker 2: you know how satisfying that is to beat people?

1075
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:40,040
Speaker 1: I'm sure, Oh, I'm sure a lot of money behind

1076
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:41,839
Speaker 1: piotr Yan, a lot of these other athletes at these

1077
00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,799
Speaker 1: big gyms. You know, Kefler's got summer houses bigger than

1078
00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,400
Speaker 1: fifty five hundred square feet.

1079
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,759
Speaker 2: But no, it is Penny's closet might be fifty five

1080
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:50,719
Speaker 2: hundred square.

1081
00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, closet. You think about it, It's got a lot of.

1082
00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,200
Speaker 2: Henny and I thank you for picking morob. I listened

1083
00:50:57,200 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 2: to your breakdown. Uh Petree, listen, you know Brian's breakdown.

1084
00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:05,400
Speaker 2: I agree with him. He wasn't he wasn't off. He

1085
00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,719
Speaker 2: definitely wasn't off. He picked the wrong guy, ably, but

1086
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,040
Speaker 2: it was there was a lot of concerning things going

1087
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:15,040
Speaker 2: into this fight. Again. My perfect scenario was exactly what

1088
00:51:15,200 --> 00:51:18,160
Speaker 2: happens Saturday night. But I thought he'd get touched up

1089
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:20,040
Speaker 2: a little more myself, you know what I mean. But

1090
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:23,200
Speaker 2: he did such a great job at off balancing that

1091
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:26,160
Speaker 2: it's just that he could never plan his feet to

1092
00:51:26,200 --> 00:51:28,680
Speaker 2: get a solid shot, you know, crazy.

1093
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:32,359
Speaker 1: It was unbelievable. Well enjoy it. We appreciate your time.

1094
00:51:32,920 --> 00:51:35,320
Speaker 1: We will talk to you next Monday to recap UFC

1095
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:37,160
Speaker 1: two to eighty six. But I will get you out

1096
00:51:37,160 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 1: of here on this Kamar Usman, Leon Edwards, Justin Gaichee,

1097
00:51:41,640 --> 00:51:45,120
Speaker 1: raphaelpha Zee a huge pay per view in London, England.

1098
00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 1: Of those four athletes, Usman, Edwards, Fayzev Geichie, who are

1099
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 1: you most confident in to get a win in London

1100
00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: England this weekend?

1101
00:51:52,640 --> 00:51:55,200
Speaker 2: Wow? I gotta tell you, those are really good matchups.

1102
00:51:56,680 --> 00:51:59,880
Speaker 2: You know, I like, I love everybody. I don't know

1103
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,279
Speaker 2: for z, but who am I most confident to get it?

1104
00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:05,000
Speaker 1: What do you think about the main event? Isn't that

1105
00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 1: a great that's our Anakin Florian Pole question for this

1106
00:52:07,120 --> 00:52:10,200
Speaker 1: week will reveal the rascene later on Thursday. But who

1107
00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,240
Speaker 1: do you feel most confident in on the main event?

1108
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 1: What do you think about Leon and Kamara?

1109
00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 2: I know, i just found out that Leon's an underdog.

1110
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 2: I'm going with Leon. I really think, uh, you know,

1111
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:24,400
Speaker 2: he took him too much time to pull the trigger.

1112
00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:26,320
Speaker 2: I think he'll I think he's just gonna have a

1113
00:52:26,360 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 2: better fight. I really do. I think he he understands.

1114
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 2: I think he was a little flat in at first fight,

1115
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,279
Speaker 2: and that's where it cost him up until like the

1116
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:37,880
Speaker 2: fifth round. I think, you know, Injuri's got to be

1117
00:52:38,000 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 2: catching up with Usmann He's I don't know, it's it's

1118
00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:43,719
Speaker 2: hard to come back I think sometimes from that, and

1119
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:45,920
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna go. I'm taking I'm gonna go

1120
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 2: with Edward's on that.

1121

00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,359
Speaker 1: podcast Ken Flow before we bounce on out of here.

1130
00:53:13,080 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 1: Roman Dalidze, Ilia Topuria, may Rob Dwallish, Willy, Gigachi Kadse.

1131
00:53:17,840 --> 00:53:21,520
Speaker 1: I'm sure I'm forgetting a high profile Georgian. But of

1132
00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:25,160
Speaker 1: those four Gigachikadse, Roman Delidze, who fights Marvin Vattoria this weekend?

1133
00:53:25,200 --> 00:53:28,319
Speaker 1: Ilia Toportia, may Rob Dwallish Willy. I know you love

1134
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 1: yourself some Ilia to Portia. But which of those four

1135
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:32,200
Speaker 1: guys is most likely to break through and win a

1136
00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:34,480
Speaker 1: world title for Georgia. You think it's Topoitia featherweight, You

1137
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 1: think it's morob At bandamwaight, Dalidze Man, I'm telling you, man,

1138
00:53:38,200 --> 00:53:40,320
Speaker 1: if anybody has a chance to put away Marvin Vattori,

1139
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:41,560
Speaker 1: maybe it's fucking that guy.

1140
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:45,719
Speaker 3: You know, gosh, that's a great question. First of all, yeah,

1141
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 3: it's amazing. Uh, the level of guys that they're producing

1142
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,879
Speaker 3: out of Georgia, Dude, I mean you see it where

1143
00:53:52,920 --> 00:53:54,880
Speaker 3: they're where they're at right now. It's going to be

1144
00:53:55,000 --> 00:53:58,960
Speaker 3: between Morob and Ilia Toporia, I think, right. Iliot also

1145
00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:01,359
Speaker 3: is what he's fighting at one. Fifty five is next one.

1146
00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:03,960
Speaker 3: He keeps going up and down. It's tough to say.

1147
00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,319
Speaker 3: I don't think at fifty five, but forty five he's

1148
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 3: got an absolute great shot. But I think Morob's got

1149
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,120
Speaker 3: to be probably leading the pack right now, right.

1150
00:54:12,360 --> 00:54:12,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1151
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:15,839
Speaker 1: And in terms of Gigachi Kadse paying for that dinner, right,

1152
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,680
Speaker 1: I think it's a lesson for all of us. Right,

1153
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,400
Speaker 1: you pay twenty five hundred bucks for a dinner, and

1154
00:54:20,640 --> 00:54:23,839
Speaker 1: that maybe stretches you a little bit if you're Gigaci Kadse, Right,

1155
00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 1: But those type of things more often than not come

1156
00:54:27,120 --> 00:54:30,400
Speaker 1: back around, you know, when you establish goodwill with people.

1157
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's karma, whatever it is, but

1158
00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,080
Speaker 1: I have a funny feeling that that money is going

1159
00:54:35,120 --> 00:54:38,000
Speaker 1: to come back around for Gigachi Kadse and his Knockout

1160
00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:41,520
Speaker 1: Cancer Foundation and everything else. All Right, that's going to

1161
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,200
Speaker 1: do it for this episode. Rest assured, though we'll have

1162
