We are here for 277 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: a reason, and this is a fun weekend of combat 278 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 1: sports across the board, your crown jewel. The main event 279 00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: is Saturday, Super Middleweight Show Time pay per view, Las Vegas, 280 00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 1: the MGM Grand Garden Arena. It's David Benavidez and Caleb Plant, 281 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 1: two former champions. One in Caleb Plant, who has one 282 00:12:17,600 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 1: career loss that came against Canelo for the undisputed championship. 283 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:23,839 Speaker 1: David Benavidez has lost his title twice without ever losing 284 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 1: it in the ring. They're colliding at the perfect point 285 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 1: in their physical primes, and as the rift between them, 286 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 1: which we saw yesterday's press conference come out in very 287 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:37,600 Speaker 1: fun ways, including the face off, this is not just 288 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 1: about oh man, this hate is real and boy is it. 289 00:12:40,559 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: If you want bad blood, you got it, there's no question. 290 00:12:43,679 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: But this is about the depth in this division, how 291 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:48,599 Speaker 1: big of a win this is for either fight or 292 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,800 Speaker 1: in the larger Canelo sweepstakes, and just declaring themselves the 293 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 1: man at super middleweight. Luke Thomas yesterday was fun. It 294 00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 1: was fun back and forth. 295 00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,719 Speaker 3: It wasn't quite as insane as I thought it might 296 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,320 Speaker 3: have been, but it was fun. Definitely, both guys with 297 00:13:03,480 --> 00:13:10,040 Speaker 3: absolutely genuine intensity. Yes, and I'm really hoping, I'm really 298 00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:12,440 Speaker 3: hoping that no one tries to pull I'm not saying 299 00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 3: that they will, but sometimes guys lose and afterwards, you 300 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 3: know what, I had this kind of camp and I 301 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,079 Speaker 3: had this kind of injury. Both guys are declaring, declaring 302 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 3: that this is truly and by the way, look you're 303 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:25,400 Speaker 3: talking Tomar right now. No, no, no, not at all. This 304 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 3: happens all the time, where you know, guys say after 305 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 3: the fact that I didn't feel this way, didn't feel 306 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 3: that way. Fine, but there are also camps and preparations 307 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 3: where they really do say things like this is the 308 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 3: best one I've ever had. But then look at too, 309 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 3: David Benavidez looks the part of the rhetoric. Caleb Plant 310 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 3: looks the part of the rhetoric, and so afterwards win 311 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,200 Speaker 3: or lose. I just want to make sure we don't 312 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 3: do not accept any well. I wasn't feeling that. I 313 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 3: just hope both teams play well in their happiness. That's right. 314 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: In the end, it's about sports out, not the cash. 315 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: I said this yesterday and I want to echo it 316 00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:56,319 Speaker 1: one more time we sat down with both fighters. We'll 317 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: play some of that son in the second. But some 318 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 1: fights when it's when it's trash talk heavy, and that 319 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: sometimes can be the drawing card. Sometimes the trash talk 320 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: is ridiculous, Luke, Right, Sometimes it's just absurd. There's been 321 00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,440 Speaker 1: like very truthful shot. I'm not saying, you know, every 322 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: element of the trash talk by both camps has been 323 00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: all healthy and honkey dory. But the point is, Luke, 324 00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:15,720 Speaker 1: they're stinging each other by bringing up some of the 325 00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: questions we have about both fighters entering this matchup and 326 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,600 Speaker 1: using that as trash talking fuel the idea that really, 327 00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 1: you know, maybe Benefitas hasn't opponent on this level exactly 328 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,400 Speaker 1: this skilled and at the same time with Plan, have 329 00:14:27,480 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: you fought a destroyer who can walk you down on here, 330 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: all the things back and forth. I think they're reacting 331 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: naturally because it's there's been some good zingers in there. 332 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:37,920 Speaker 1: But some of that though, some of that concern is true, Luke, 333 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: we got to find out in the ring on the area. 334 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 1: Let's see the face off between them. Let's relive that. 335 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:44,080 Speaker 1: I think you just checked out. 336 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 3: No, no, I just what do you want me to 337 00:14:45,680 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 3: say for the fiftieth time to the same question. Go back, 338 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 3: let's turn for the cameras boy. 339 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: On any level, on any topic. And I think it 340 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: was interesting how close in size they actually look here 341 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: when I talk about the trash talk, Luke, and it 342 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: makes sense Plants saying you never fought a real super 343 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: middle a guy who's a natural one sixty. 344 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:45,880 Speaker 2: That's enough, Okay, there it is, yes. 345 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: Bro, alright, alright, alright, alright. A lot of test top 346 00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,360 Speaker 3: throw on their high tea levels coming out of that stage. 347 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 3: So something you may not appreciate as an MMA fan, 348 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: if you're watching this, this is not this is again, 349 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 3: this is boxing, this is not MMA. We can still here. 350 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 3: There we go. The fighters don't actually have to face off. 351 00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:20,040 Speaker 3: The promoter has to convince them to do it. Yes, 352 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: and they did, and both guys did. So whenever you 353 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 3: show up for an event like this, they'll almost always 354 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 3: face off at the weigh in, but they won't necessarily 355 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 3: face off at the press conference. So we didn't know. 356 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 3: You just never know they're going to face off. They did, 357 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 3: and I was like. 358 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,840 Speaker 1: There, Andy, I expect today to be intense on that 359 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 1: sties for sure. We sat down with both fighters and 360 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:42,320 Speaker 1: let's hear from David Benavitez. The first clip is about 361 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: being motivated by Plant's willingness to stick it to him 362 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: at every turn, creating the website in his name, all 363 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,440 Speaker 1: the stuff that we've talked about, making the action figure 364 00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: of the of the grave Digger thing, I mean, plan 365 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: is all the hell in whether you believe he's willing 366 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 1: himself to believe he can win, or whether he's got 367 00:16:57,200 --> 00:16:59,480 Speaker 1: the secret on how to break down the code against Benavidez. 368 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,520 Speaker 3: Let's hear what they had to say. 369 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 5: Yeah, definitely, but he's always talking saying I'm fat, that 370 00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:08,879 Speaker 5: i'm this, and that I need to make weight this 371 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 5: and that. But now that I come in, I've been 372 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 5: on way all week. You know, I definitely gave him 373 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,879 Speaker 5: the import since he wanted. You know what I mean, 374 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,600 Speaker 5: I gave him all and my attention. If back then 375 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:20,320 Speaker 5: I hit hard and I didn't really train like that, 376 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 5: Now that I I really prepared myself, I'm even more dangerous, 377 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,000 Speaker 5: so she should be even more word. You know, like 378 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 5: I said, trained for about three and a half four months. 379 00:17:30,280 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 3: You know, A trained extremely hard. 380 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,919 Speaker 5: So he definitely gave me the motivation, you know, the 381 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 5: extra motivation I needed because I really don't like this guy. 382 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 5: I really do want to shut him up, so you 383 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 5: know I'm I'm definitely gonna be pushing for the knockout 384 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 5: every single round. 385 00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: Well, I got a key question off of that sound, 386 00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: because you and I been talking about this off camera 387 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:45,520 Speaker 1: a lot and trying to figure out, like who's actually 388 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 1: gonna win this fight? We Benevida has just said, I 389 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:49,719 Speaker 1: teeed it up as the idea of like his plant, 390 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,680 Speaker 1: poking the bear too dangerously because he's gonna get you 391 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 1: to a focus and training level that you've never been before. 392 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: Is that a red flag that benefita Is ultimately ultimately admits, Yeah, 393 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:02,639 Speaker 1: I'm not always as determined. You know, I'm not always 394 00:18:02,680 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 1: the professional I need to be, but good lord, this 395 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 1: fight I will be and this guy's pressing the wrong 396 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:07,320 Speaker 1: guy at the right time. 397 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 3: You've definitely heard and seen scenarios in combat sports where 398 00:18:13,680 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 3: someone did something extra and got extra benefit from it. Yes, 399 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 3: At the same time, Caleb Plant's argument that I don't 400 00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 3: ever wait for an opponent to get motivated. I don't 401 00:18:24,800 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 3: ever wait for an opponent to do the extra rounds. 402 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 3: I don't ever wait for an opponent to make me 403 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:31,160 Speaker 3: motivated to do the things I need to do to win. 404 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,679 Speaker 3: I take that seriously as well. Be see, because the 405 00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,840 Speaker 3: thing that that signals is when there is a surprising, 406 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:40,240 Speaker 3: unexpected difficulty in the middle of the fight. It's not 407 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 3: that we doubt David Benavidez is resolved to win. But 408 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 3: can you keep the same mental composure. Can you stick 409 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 3: to the game plan when things get hard? How much 410 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 3: can you get veered off course if you're not used 411 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 3: to doing all the things when you have to cross 412 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 3: all the t's and dot all the eyes, right, I thought, oh, 413 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,080 Speaker 3: I don't want to do that game plan because its 414 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 3: actually getting hard. I'm gonna to a different one. And yes, 415 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 3: you can go out on your shield, but it's not 416 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 3: the same commitment to doing the hard things when no 417 00:19:06,119 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 3: one's looking, so it's hard to parse. You and I 418 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 3: talked about this yesterday. I do think David Benavidez is 419 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 3: more ready for this than I've seen him ever. Ever, 420 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 3: the first time we actually got involved in David Banavida's 421 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:21,399 Speaker 3: coverage was that event where he lost his belt on 422 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,720 Speaker 3: the scales. Yeah, so we've seen that. We've seen that, 423 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,000 Speaker 3: So I do think he's more prepped for this one. 424 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 3: But if this one goes deep and guys have to 425 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:35,879 Speaker 3: go into like real problem solving mode through frustration, what 426 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 3: happens to the resolve then? 427 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,119 Speaker 1: Because you have no question that Benavitez is about that 428 00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 1: life that he's got the chin, ball's willingness to like 429 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:45,199 Speaker 1: he would prefer, he'll go for it. This was an 430 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: actual brawl, he would obviously prefer that. Style wise, that 431 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 1: would play into his hands. But being on this level, 432 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:53,359 Speaker 1: in this stage for the first time, having an opponent 433 00:19:53,400 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 1: that won't back down, I mean, look, ultimately, the true 434 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: question of how this fight actually finishes, and what you 435 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,920 Speaker 1: know who wins is whether is whether Caleb Plant's chin 436 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 1: can hold up. That's the true question. But if it 437 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: does hold up, I think that's where you start to 438 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 1: look at some of the things Plant is saying about 439 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:12,240 Speaker 1: Benavidez in wonder, you know, does he have an edge 440 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,159 Speaker 1: on him and those intangibles. If it gets to that 441 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:18,160 Speaker 1: crazy point either way, we're gonna see the very best 442 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:20,960 Speaker 1: we've ever seen of David Benavitez at age twenty six pieces. 443 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 1: I think he's carried that chip on his shoulder of 444 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: missteps that you know he claims and rightfully says was 445 00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 1: his fault, the cocaine test, missing weight during the pandemic, 446 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:30,200 Speaker 1: all that. But we're now seeing him against the toughest 447 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 1: opponent on his resume in terms of facing them in 448 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,160 Speaker 1: their prime by far, and we're not gonna find out, Luke, 449 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,200 Speaker 1: how good he actually is with no excuses. And something 450 00:20:39,240 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 1: you asked him was why now? Why is now the 451 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,760 Speaker 1: time that you are going to be at your very 452 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 1: best and that this fight is finally coming together, and 453 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,479 Speaker 1: that it's your time to not just beat Caleb Plant, 454 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:52,840 Speaker 1: but remain the long term boogeyman for Canelo and potentially 455 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: that that boss at the end of the one hundred 456 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 1: and sixty eight pounds video game. Let's hear what Benevita said. 457 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 6: So what I'm saying is He's not some huge, one punch, 458 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 6: knockout power type of guy. He's a volume puncher. That's 459 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 6: his greatest assay. He's a volume puncher. 460 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:15,000 Speaker 5: Because I had to keep the promise to the little kid. 461 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:17,640 Speaker 5: I told myself, you know, when I was thirteen years old, 462 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 5: I told myself I was gonna be here when I 463 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:20,239 Speaker 5: got to the pay per view. 464 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 3: I was gonna work my asso no matter who was 465 00:21:22,240 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 3: or who. 466 00:21:22,960 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 5: Was in front of me, I was gonna be in 467 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 5: spectacular fashion and I was going to be that man, 468 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 5: the next pay per view star. And that's definitely what 469 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,320 Speaker 5: I wanted to be. Even before I got the phone 470 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 5: call for Caleb Plant, I was extremely ready. I wasn't 471 00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 5: in a training camp for another fight. So, I mean, 472 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 5: this is probably the hardest I've ever worked. And I 473 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 5: just turned twenty six years old. So I'm kind of 474 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 5: getting in my prime, you know. I mean at the 475 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 5: beginning stages of my prime. So I'm even stronger now 476 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,919 Speaker 5: than I was back then. And everything that's led me, 477 00:21:48,119 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 5: the good and the bad, has led me to this moment, 478 00:21:50,160 --> 00:21:51,959 Speaker 5: and I just can't wait to take advantage of this. 479 00:21:54,080 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: No, I don't know, if you know, if I could 480 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: pull off those classes. But do I believe we're going 481 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 1: to get the best version that they've been to be this? 482 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 3: Ye? Es, yes, you know. 483 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 1: But the thing is what's interesting is Caleb Plant has 484 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: said a lot of things about him, and again some 485 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:07,879 Speaker 1: of this is dealing in areas that might be true. 486 00:22:07,960 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 1: Have you ever faced a supermitivate my size? I was 487 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: surprised when they finally did face off there how kind 488 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:16,199 Speaker 1: of close in size they've seemed to be. The skill 489 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: factor does seem to be wide. It is boxer versus puncher, 490 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:22,720 Speaker 1: even though Benavitz is certainly a craftier brawler and bully, 491 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: you know, on the elite level than we tend to see. 492 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 1: But Luke, here's something very interesting from Caleb Plant ultimately 493 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 1: about why he does believe people are overrating Benevetez and 494 00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,119 Speaker 1: while it fuels his reason for not showing any level 495 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,280 Speaker 1: of fear or even really respect, maybe baseline respect. I 496 00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: have to get myself prepared because I know how dangerous 497 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: this guy is. But Plant doesn't really think Benavitez is 498 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: all that, certainly not at this level. 499 00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:48,320 Speaker 3: And here's why. 500 00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 6: So what I'm saying is he's not some huge, one 501 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,920 Speaker 6: punch knockout power type of guy. He's a volume puncher. 502 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,879 Speaker 6: That's his greatest assay. He's a volume puncher. And so, 503 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:04,160 Speaker 6: you know, for him to try and build this up, 504 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,360 Speaker 6: maybe he's trying to make me scare his power now, 505 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 6: this newfound power he has. 506 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 3: But he's not. 507 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 6: He's not a one punch knockout power. He doesn't punch 508 00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:12,640 Speaker 6: as hard as Canelo. He doesn't punch as hard as 509 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:17,640 Speaker 6: Jose Uskatzigi. He's a volume puncher. So but hey, if 510 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,320 Speaker 6: he feels like he's this big, you know, one punch 511 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,200 Speaker 6: knockou power guy, more power to him. 512 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:24,679 Speaker 3: I can't wait. I can't wait to see how that 513 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 3: plays out. I really can't wait. 514 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:28,399 Speaker 1: I mean he's no is he a one punch guy. No, 515 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: he's not a one punch guy, but he frutilizes you. 516 00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:32,280 Speaker 1: And also here's the other part. 517 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 3: He can have one shot that hurts you and then 518 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 3: the follow up is right behind, and then the follow 519 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 3: up is right behind. And so, yes, does he have 520 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:42,920 Speaker 3: the one like this, But he can put four on 521 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 3: you in the span of a time. It takes another 522 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,439 Speaker 3: got to put one or two. And that's where the 523 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 3: problem lies is once you get hit with one. Remember 524 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 3: we talked about it the gatling gun of shots that 525 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,000 Speaker 3: come right behind it. That's where you get overwhelmed in 526 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 3: an instant. 527 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: Look at the reflection from your laptop. Look look into 528 00:23:58,960 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: the camera. It's giving you off the laptop. 529 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 3: It's the lights. All right, there you go. There's nothing 530 00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 3: I can do about that. Okay, I was. 531 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,280 Speaker 1: I was mesmerized by it. But I think what you're 532 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 1: what you're saying, well, no, I mean, are you We. 533 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 3: Can hear you, guys, if I had if I had 534 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 3: Ebola in a squirt gun, I would spray it in 535 00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 3: your face. I just want you to know that. Okay, 536 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 3: thank you. 537 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,280 Speaker 1: Uh, this is the look I mean. You also have 538 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 1: to avoid those shots. Let's see if Plant can do it. Ultimately, 539 00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:23,960 Speaker 1: he couldn't against Canelo. But these are different fighters. Styles 540 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: make fights. There's a reason why I think we're giving 541 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 1: odds makers giving Plant much more chance against the Benevitez 542 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 1: than Canelo. 543 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 3: Canelo also have the skill. 544 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: And accuracy to go with that speed and power. But Luke, 545 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 1: if Caleb Plant is gonna win, it's probably gonna be 546 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 1: with what he's saying, avoiding those shots. 547 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 3: You're relying on his skills. 548 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,320 Speaker 1: He believes he's the more skilled fighter for sure, and 549 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: I think there's no question in that. I think the 550 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: big questions here is the breadman relationship. How much does 551 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,760 Speaker 1: that raise the element of Plant being a more dangerous 552 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:51,120 Speaker 1: puncher than he showed. The Darrell knockout last year, knock 553 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 1: Out of the Year certainly echoed that. But one thing 554 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: I've been harping on all week, and I gotta be honest, 555 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 1: anyone who's gonna bet on this fight, anybody with a 556 00:24:57,240 --> 00:24:59,879 Speaker 1: you know who has some serious interest to try to 557 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 1: figure out who's gonna win, and do you have the odds? 558 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, they've actually grown in Benavidez's favorite. Oh tell me 559 00:25:04,600 --> 00:25:06,680 Speaker 3: what we got here, Benevidez scorded to our friends over 560 00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 3: at Caesar's, or I should say, yeah, Caesar's Wow. Minus 561 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 3: three sixty for David Benavidez plus two to eighty for 562 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 3: Caleb Plant. Right, We're gonna get to our pick in 563 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 3: a second. 564 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 1: But based on those odds, what you have to figure 565 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 1: out when betting this fight, and everyone's facing this dilemma. 566 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 1: We know that in the end of the day's skills 567 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: to pay the bill. Skills win fights. But the slant 568 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 1: against Plants skills in this sense per se, even though 569 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 1: he's got the skill advantage, is he's facing a bruising 570 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: type of guy who can play into the one disadvantage 571 00:25:36,840 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 1: he has outside of that Darrell knockout of not being 572 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 1: a big time puncher. Let's see if it ultimately plays 573 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:45,760 Speaker 1: out that way. But the dilemma for all betting oddsmen is, 574 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,919 Speaker 1: you know Plant has the skills, but this level of 575 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: confidence that he's showing this maniacol almost like sadistic level, 576 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,400 Speaker 1: like playing mind games and just cool the whole time 577 00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: and calculated. Is it because he knows a secret that 578 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:00,879 Speaker 1: David Benavitez is going to be the first one to 579 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: find out on Saturday? Or has he just excelled at 580 00:26:04,040 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 1: putting in the work and talking himself up to be 581 00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,200 Speaker 1: ready for this moment. We've seen a lot of confident 582 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: people go into big fucks and lose. There does seem 583 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: to be something extra about this version of Caleb Plant, 584 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: And I asked him about that. 585 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 6: Well, Uh, you know, I've been doing this for a 586 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:24,919 Speaker 6: long time at a really high level, and you know 587 00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 6: I've always succeeded at the highest level in boxing weather 588 00:26:27,040 --> 00:26:30,040 Speaker 6: it's from the amateur's golden globe National Championship, Olympic alternate, 589 00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 6: you know, Olympic trials, and then obviously you know, moving 590 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,160 Speaker 6: through the pros, the fight with Jose Who Scott to Yell, 591 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,840 Speaker 6: I was an underdog year layoff coming off of BROCNE. 592 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 6: I came in and did you know, did what I did, 593 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 6: got my hand raised, became champ against the rail coming 594 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 6: off the Canelo loss, almost a year layoff, came back, 595 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,119 Speaker 6: did what I did. And then even with Canelo, you know, 596 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 6: I didn't wind up not going my way, but I 597 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 6: know the type of work I put in and the 598 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 6: success that I did have, and you know, that was 599 00:26:57,240 --> 00:26:58,119 Speaker 6: a hostile environment. 600 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,199 Speaker 3: That was a hostile crowd. We were there, we were 601 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 3: just talking about that. 602 00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, and so you know, coming out the other side 603 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 6: of that, with his success that I had, it didn't 604 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 6: feel made me feel like I was a step further 605 00:27:08,520 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 6: away from accomplishment goal. It's made me feel like I 606 00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 6: was just one step closer. 607 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,879 Speaker 1: Luke, I've been asking you this all week. It's a 608 00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: day before the fight. It's poking the bear. The right 609 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 1: thing to do here for Gala plan. 610 00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 3: I think so, I think so, I think you can't 611 00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 3: lay back, you can't try and be mister professional, mister cool, 612 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 3: which he is being cool to an extent, right, he's 613 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:33,480 Speaker 3: not getting overly emotional about it. But I do think 614 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 3: you're not gonna on some level, man. You really got 615 00:27:37,720 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 3: to match his intensity, David Benavidez, his intensity, right, They 616 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 3: always talk about that in wrestling matches, whatever the intensity 617 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:45,000 Speaker 3: of your opponent is, you have to match or exceed that. 618 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 3: And of course that's a different sport and a different 619 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,919 Speaker 3: kind of aesthetic that goes with it. But at the 620 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,399 Speaker 3: same time, I just you know, I remember that press 621 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,400 Speaker 3: conference that Connor had with half Aldosanjos before that fight 622 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 3: fell through, and then Adie Alvarez one filled in, which 623 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 3: is that but you know he was eating him alive 624 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 3: at that press conference and you saw Dossan just try 625 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 3: and lay back and like, you know, I'm gonna ignore 626 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 3: it and bubble and it just didn't work. You have 627 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 3: to swear for Eddie either didn't work for Eddie either. 628 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 3: You've got to match his intensity and if you don't, 629 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:14,879 Speaker 3: you know, you're just gonna get run over. So like 630 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,000 Speaker 3: the kind of situation they're in there, kind of forced 631 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 3: to play mind games a little bit with one another, 632 00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 3: So you know, and then going to David Benavidez dot 633 00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 3: com route. Sure, you're gonna get David Benavidez defeated when 634 00:28:25,760 --> 00:28:28,000 Speaker 3: you can get him off of his game, when you 635 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 3: can get him to overreact, when you can get him frustrated. 636 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 3: He has built up in his mind. Both guys have 637 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 3: built up in their mind this expectation that Saturday is 638 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 3: going to go their way. But when they're in the 639 00:28:38,240 --> 00:28:40,200 Speaker 3: middle of it, if it's not going their way and 640 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,360 Speaker 3: they've been frustrated and this dude is in their head 641 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,080 Speaker 3: and they can't think clearly, Yes, I think that will work, 642 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 3: but just laying back and be like I'm going to 643 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 3: Like you could lay back and accept it. If the 644 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,760 Speaker 3: skilled differential was much more noteworthy, then you could be like, 645 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 3: I'm about to teach you a lesson on Saturday. But 646 00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 3: this is a closely contested one, and I think Caleb 647 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 3: Plant knows he can't make mistakes. But at the same time, 648 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 3: you just can't lay back and let this guy dictate 649 00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 3: the tenor of the pre fight coverage. You got to 650 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 3: get in there and mix it up with him a little. 651 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: Bit and smart this is he's showing us that that 652 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 1: he's smart. 653 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 3: Whether this works or not. 654 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: Like I always say, Luke, on the basketball court, you 655 00:29:14,320 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 1: put you poke the pair of the wrong guy, You're 656 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: gonna find out the hard way. 657 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 3: That's life, right, People are wired differently. 658 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:21,520 Speaker 1: He may find out the hard way, But I think 659 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 1: this is the best for his skills to play mattage 660 00:29:23,840 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 1: order the bowl for sure, but also to try to 661 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 1: build any advantage he can mentally why because if Plant's 662 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: gonna win this fight, it's gonna be by decision, and 663 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: he's gonna have to walk in and out of hell 664 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 1: and be fine being close to that fire, which I 665 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,360 Speaker 1: think he will be, So any slight advantage he can gain, 666 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: like Luke said, to get Benevitez off his game, or 667 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: to just mix him up, make him reset. Bradman Edwards 668 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: in his corner of this relationship heading into fight two 669 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:48,840 Speaker 1: is big to close before we get ready for Okay 670 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: bet and our prediction here. A lot of people have 671 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,239 Speaker 1: just asked, kind of casually, like, Hey, I haven't been 672 00:29:52,240 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: following this, what is the root of this beef? Why 673 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,000 Speaker 1: do these guys hate each other? Luke I wrote a 674 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 1: story about it this week. I think it comes down 675 00:29:57,600 --> 00:30:00,440 Speaker 1: to this. We know that Caleb Plants in fint Daughter 676 00:30:00,520 --> 00:30:03,720 Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, Aliyah died at a very young age, 677 00:30:03,760 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 1: and that was a big part of the story that 678 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:07,800 Speaker 1: we told about who this guy is. 679 00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 3: As he rose. 680 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: At some point, Luke, he saw a video with Jose 681 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 1: Benavidez Senior, the father and trainer of David, where he 682 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 1: basically said, look, I think Caleb's milking this. I think 683 00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: he's you know, he's using this like his daughter's gone 684 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: let it, let it go and focus on you know. 685 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,520 Speaker 1: He basically did one of those things. Caleb said, that's unforgivable. 686 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, you went to the level beyond you know, 687 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 1: even talking about my wife. You know, this is so 688 00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: he bound to never forgive them, Luke, and that led 689 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,000 Speaker 1: beautifully into that twenty eighteen gym altercation we talk a 690 00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:35,240 Speaker 1: lot about in Las Vegas, where yes, Plant did throw 691 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:37,680 Speaker 1: the first punch at Jose Benavidez Junior, the older brother 692 00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: of David, and it. 693 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 3: Escalated from there. 694 00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: We're gonna find out in the ring on Saturday, Luke, 695 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: and it's time to make our selections. We do this 696 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,640 Speaker 1: segment every week based on demand from you folks, so 697 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: hopefully you're enjoying it. I don't know if you've enjoyed 698 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 1: the success of our picks, but Luke and I will 699 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 1: go head to head every Friday five picks the biggest 700 00:30:55,320 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 1: main event of the weekend favorites underdogs, which fight will 701 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: go oh oh, go the distance or not? And of 702 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 1: course finally, which fight will end in either a KO 703 00:31:05,400 --> 00:31:07,320 Speaker 1: or a SUB and you have to pick it and Luke. 704 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: Based on some criticism of me picking boxing matches and 705 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: KO and sub moving forward, it can be MMA match only. 706 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 3: Okay enough. 707 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:17,480 Speaker 1: Last week Luke had a tie, let's not forget, in 708 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: a fight that turned out to be a draw involving 709 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,600 Speaker 1: Ji Herbert. I also had a fight Luke that never 710 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: happened featuring Gay, Brizato and Zerto. So I will pick 711 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 1: an extra bonus pick this week to even us out. 712 00:31:27,400 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 1: But as we stand, you went two two and one 713 00:31:29,360 --> 00:31:34,080 Speaker 1: last week. I went two and two. Your Morning Combat Up. 714 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:39,200 Speaker 1: Updated standings are Luke Thomas in first place with twenty wins, 715 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: eighteen losses and one tie. 716 00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 3: That's despicable. Ye slightly above five hundred, which I'm sure 717 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:46,280 Speaker 3: I will fall out of. 718 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm fifteen and twenty three overalls. 719 00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 3: I'm the Washington Wizards and you're the Detroit Pistons. 720 00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,640 Speaker 1: You have the champions advantages being in the lead, which 721 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 1: means you can you can veto any picks that we 722 00:31:56,680 --> 00:31:58,600 Speaker 1: have that are mutual, and you can pick whether you 723 00:31:58,680 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 1: go first or sick. 724 00:31:59,680 --> 00:32:01,239 Speaker 3: I'll go first, all right. 725 00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 1: Our main event of the weekend is Benavitez versus Plant Luke, 726 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 1: Who wins and why I'm. 727 00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 3: Gonna ride with Caleb Plant I I might live to 728 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:13,880 Speaker 3: regret it. But if you just look at David Benavidez's resume, 729 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: certainly the guys he's fought he has soundly defeated. He 730 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:20,040 Speaker 3: was much better than I do think he's very good. 731 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 3: He's twenty six years old, this is his first time 732 00:32:22,760 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 3: and the big show, by the way, and he obviously 733 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:28,000 Speaker 3: has had, you know, some professionalism issues. I don't really 734 00:32:28,240 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 3: the fact that the US cocaine is not of interest 735 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,160 Speaker 3: to me, and I don't think he should have ever 736 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,040 Speaker 3: lost his title, but he did misweait and he lost 737 00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:34,600 Speaker 3: the title on the scales that way. There's just been 738 00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 3: some things where, you know, his professionalism has been called 739 00:32:37,560 --> 00:32:39,840 Speaker 3: into question. Not this time. I don't believe that. I 740 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 3: really do believe we're gonna get a great David Benavidez, 741 00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:45,360 Speaker 3: which makes this hill took for Caleb Plant to climb 742 00:32:45,880 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 3: much higher. But I think that Caleb had Caleb BC. 743 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 3: Would you agree whether you think David Benavidez is gonna 744 00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:56,840 Speaker 3: win or lose. Caleb is the better boxer, Yes, pure boxer. 745 00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,040 Speaker 3: He's the better boxer bye by far, by far. 746 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: Because what Benavidez is great is takes the art of 747 00:33:02,800 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: brawling but adds craft. 748 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 3: Adds craft to it, and he's big and imposing and 749 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:08,880 Speaker 3: can kind of like lean over you, and you know 750 00:33:08,920 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 3: he's got he does have good power. He works the job, 751 00:33:10,960 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 3: he knows how Yeah, like whatever Caleb says about him, 752 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:15,239 Speaker 3: like he is a very skilled tectician in the way 753 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:18,320 Speaker 3: in which he fights. So this one's gonna be competitive. Certainly, 754 00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,800 Speaker 3: if they have been a Benavidez wins, you wouldn't be like, 755 00:33:20,800 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: how did that happen? You would know, But Caleb Plant 756 00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 3: has I think Caleb Plant's experience against Canelo, which was 757 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,240 Speaker 3: the hostile crowd, hostile fight week, everyone counting him out, 758 00:33:31,440 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 3: everyone counting him out, and I didn't think he was 759 00:33:33,640 --> 00:33:37,239 Speaker 3: he had the firepower to beat Canelo. I wonder if 760 00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:39,280 Speaker 3: he might against David Benavidez, who I do think has 761 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 3: better overall firepower, but is much more stationary, much more 762 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 3: able to be hit, does not have Canelo's defense, does 763 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 3: not have Canelo's shoulder rolling and trickery, does not have 764 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 3: the same kind of ring craft that I think Caleb 765 00:33:51,480 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 3: Plant is used to. So I think Caleb Plant is 766 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,120 Speaker 3: the more skilled guy. It's an uphill climb. He might 767 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,320 Speaker 3: lose certain rounds in dramatic ways, but I think he's 768 00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:06,480 Speaker 3: gonna over time, David Benavidez is gonna be frustrated, He's 769 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 3: gonna make mistakes. I think he gets dropped in this contest. 770 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 1: You think David Benavidez gets dropped, Here's what I mean, 771 00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 1: gets dropped by Gavriel won the title. 772 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 3: Here's what I mean, not so much because he gets 773 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,240 Speaker 3: hit so hard with a shot that he just goes 774 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 3: and gets You know, his brain doesn't work right. But 775 00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 3: that oftentimes Here's the thing. I talk about it all 776 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 3: the time. Guys, you got to pay attention. Watch how 777 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 3: many guys go back foot first when they go into 778 00:34:28,120 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 3: position in boxing, and it makes you front foot heavy 779 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 3: and hard to pivot and hard to move. He does 780 00:34:32,840 --> 00:34:34,600 Speaker 3: it a fair amount as he comes in square. I 781 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,879 Speaker 3: think a guy like Caleb Plant, if he has trained 782 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,879 Speaker 3: right with Redman Edwards, is gonna feast on something like that, 783 00:34:40,280 --> 00:34:42,759 Speaker 3: and so he chant has to be there. Here's what 784 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,920 Speaker 3: I mean. Cayleb's getting knocked down. He's getting knocked down 785 00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 3: on the front up. Sure, I think that's right. I 786 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,879 Speaker 3: think he's gonna get beat up to the body too 787 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,399 Speaker 3: real bad. But here's what I'm pointing out. He might 788 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,360 Speaker 3: get knocked down because he's off balance. That's actually a 789 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 3: real thing, and they're gonna count it no matter whatvidez. 790 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 3: If your gloves touch the ground or your you get 791 00:34:58,280 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 3: sat to your rear end, even if you're not rock, 792 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 3: they're gonna count it. And so those kinds of things 793 00:35:03,600 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 3: I think are actually on the table for Caleb Plant. 794 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 3: Maybe I'm reaching, I probably am, but I'm gonna ride 795 00:35:08,640 --> 00:35:10,399 Speaker 3: with Caleb Plan. I think he's got a real chance 796 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:11,480 Speaker 3: here to do something special. 797 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:14,160 Speaker 1: I'm I'm surprised that you came around, because sometimes I 798 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: can fall for things easier luke a flascy package or 799 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: somebody just showing you a mental toughness mix with the 800 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,399 Speaker 1: skills that I know they have. But there's a lot 801 00:35:22,440 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 1: of reason to believe in the go ahead. 802 00:35:25,239 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 3: Would you agree Caleb's best win is much better than 803 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 3: Benefitez his best win. 804 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 1: It's better it's jose Uskottighi back when he was a 805 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:35,479 Speaker 1: champion and closer to his pride and on the gear. 806 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:39,680 Speaker 1: I won't say much much better, but he had. Yes, 807 00:35:39,719 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: he has a better win. And then the experience of 808 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,600 Speaker 1: Canelo is a monster part of it. So here's the deal. 809 00:35:45,680 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm not just falling for Caleb Plants the underdog here 810 00:35:47,960 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 1: of the confidence, the upward trajectory of where he's going 811 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 1: and the improvements he's making and the confidence he has added. 812 00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,640 Speaker 1: He's rounding out to try to be the very best 813 00:35:56,640 --> 00:35:59,640 Speaker 1: he can be in every single category mentally physically, and 814 00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 1: now with Redman Edwards figuring out how to be how 815 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,200 Speaker 1: to have more power when it matters, I think they 816 00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:07,880 Speaker 1: know the uphill challenge here that even if you're ahead, 817 00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: let's say, you know, six rounds to one entering the 818 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 1: seventh round, even if you've corralled a bunch of early 819 00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:17,440 Speaker 1: rounds by boxing and avoiding the big shot and frustrating Benavidez, 820 00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some downhill moments where Benavidez corners him, 821 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: and that's where the resolve of Kayla Plant has to 822 00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 1: show up. It's not like he has a history of 823 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 1: being ever knocked down or knocked out outside of Canelo, 824 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 1: which I think was a confluence. Would you say, Luke 825 00:36:28,560 --> 00:36:33,160 Speaker 1: of clean punching fatigue? Like, dude, there's why styles make fights. 826 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: Canelo is actually a better boxer at the end of 827 00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 1: the day than kalb Plant. Not as quick, but but 828 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 1: a better boxer has more, you know, more answers to 829 00:36:39,920 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 1: all the questions Benevedez doesn't. And for Benavidez to have 830 00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: his biggest success offensively, he's gonna have to square up 831 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,360 Speaker 1: and be you know, and be there to be hit 832 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 1: even if he's cornering you. So Kala Plan actually doesn't 833 00:36:50,640 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 1: have a history of being Chiney. He does have a 834 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: history of fading a little bit against Uskatagi and then 835 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: getting kind of rocked around by big shots. He never 836 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 1: went down, but it showed you, oh wow, this was 837 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 1: a fifteen round fight, he'd be in trouble. This is 838 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 1: a different Plant. Since then, I understand the idea of 839 00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:07,280 Speaker 1: looking at some of the guys that Plant beat outside 840 00:37:07,320 --> 00:37:10,720 Speaker 1: of us Katagie and not being overly impressed. At some points, 841 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:14,440 Speaker 1: he was kind of used by PBC as a attraction 842 00:37:14,520 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: fighter to build the brand. You saw him in pay 843 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,040 Speaker 1: per view comine events against Mike Lee from the Subway 844 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 1: commercial at a glossy record, but no chance against him. 845 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:23,879 Speaker 1: But can't he step up and do this on this level? 846 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: He has the skills to do it. He certainly has 847 00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:28,879 Speaker 1: the belief if he's got more offensive firepower. I think 848 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:31,880 Speaker 1: there's reasons to believe that this is the time for him, ultimately, 849 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 1: because sometimes it does come down to who you are 850 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: and who you've actually been. We have built up a 851 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,799 Speaker 1: boogeyman reputation around David Benavitez, and largely that is rightfully so. 852 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 1: But the majority of his opponents have been either aging 853 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,360 Speaker 1: or they've been what the hell is that, Luke? Or 854 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 1: they've been aggressive brawlers who Benevetez could not only meet 855 00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:54,440 Speaker 1: their aggression, he could outskill them and getting off his punches. 856 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 1: And he had the size, he had the gas tank, 857 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,400 Speaker 1: he had the intention, and all of that. He's facing 858 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:01,879 Speaker 1: deficit in some of these key categories. I believe when 859 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,239 Speaker 1: matched up against Plant, it's playing gonna have to walk 860 00:38:04,239 --> 00:38:06,400 Speaker 1: through hell, yes, but do skills pay the bills at 861 00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 1: the highest level, provided that you can get to that 862 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 1: twelveth round. 863 00:38:10,920 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 3: I think so. 864 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:13,560 Speaker 1: I think Caleb Plant by close decision in a fight 865 00:38:13,600 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 1: that Luke. I think in the second half it's going 866 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: to be a little bit more of an action fight 867 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 1: than than a boxing match or a cat and mouse 868 00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 1: or anything like that. I think this is going to 869 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 1: succeed in entertaining us. And I don't know if the 870 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 1: Kalb Plant win means he gets Canelo, but I'm taking 871 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 1: Caleb Plants as the upset pick here too, and he 872 00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 1: won us over. You have to admit he did win 873 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 1: us over this. 874 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, he did, He really did. And the other part too, 875 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 3: is Benavidez has never fought a guy like Plant, not 876 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,640 Speaker 3: the same skill level, with the same kind of style. Yes, 877 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 3: and again David Benavidez is not Canelo, but in the 878 00:38:41,239 --> 00:38:45,400 Speaker 3: sense that Plant has faced someone who's going to try 879 00:38:45,520 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 3: and pressure him against the ropes, control him and then 880 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 3: go to work on combos in that area, he has 881 00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:53,800 Speaker 3: faced someone like David Benavide's in that sense, not the 882 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,399 Speaker 3: same proportion, not the same style. But but look, what's 883 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:57,000 Speaker 3: the smart bet. 884 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,800 Speaker 1: What's the safe bet benefitez by Stoppage. 885 00:38:58,840 --> 00:38:59,520 Speaker 3: Hey, there's a dog. 886 00:39:00,480 --> 00:39:02,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's a dog here. There's loud noises, but just 887 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 1: a dog walking through. It's a police dog. They're looking for, 888 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,239 Speaker 1: you know, looking for fucking dog is a narc Fuck 889 00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: that dog? All right, that's your pick for the main event, Luke, 890 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: what's your favorite of the week? 891 00:39:13,600 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 3: Where are we going here? All right? Her favorite? We're 892 00:39:15,480 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 3: gonna go back to the UFC card. I'm gonna go 893 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:20,960 Speaker 3: with Macy Barbara over Andrea Lee. Macy Barbara. I know 894 00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 3: we talked about it that we was positioned as being 895 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 3: the next big thing, fell short of that couple of times, 896 00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,160 Speaker 3: but it is that kind of nicely rebounded over time. 897 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 3: I'm liking the growth in her game. I still believe 898 00:39:32,000 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 3: she's got a great future. As I mentioned, with twenty three, 899 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,319 Speaker 3: twenty four years old, there's really a lot of time 900 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 3: for her to get better, and I think she is. 901 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 3: Andrea Lee, though I think it's kind of she's definitely 902 00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 3: been She's definitely become much more well rounded over time, 903 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,239 Speaker 3: but I still think it has some deficits in the 904 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 3: ground game. Controlling of the ground game. These are areas 905 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 3: where Barbara has tended to excel. Barbara gets better as 906 00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 3: the fight goes longer. I wouldn't say the same for 907 00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 3: lead necessarily. So it's close, it's competitive, it's not it's 908 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 3: you know, no one's really out of the realm of 909 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,400 Speaker 3: catching a win here or el. But I like Matsy Barbara. 910 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 3: I think she's got more skills to win. Maybe goes 911 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 3: to this since maybe a dozen, but I think she 912 00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:05,480 Speaker 3: gets her hand. 913 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: Can she establish that ground and pound consistently against KGB? 914 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,080 Speaker 3: And maybe not at first, but I think over time, yes, 915 00:40:11,160 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean she can. She can box and 916 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 3: that's great noise. I love that noise. I love that noise. 917 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,239 Speaker 3: All right, Luke, that's your favorite of the week. 918 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 1: My favorite will stay on the same card, and it's 919 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: the co feature and it's women's band and win, and 920 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 1: of course it's the return of Yanna Santo's formerly Kunitskaya 921 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 1: from giving birth her in mahet To, Luke. 922 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:28,960 Speaker 3: Very beautiful, happy family, love it. 923 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 1: She's coming back quickly though, and turning it around against 924 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:34,120 Speaker 1: the Agels. Wonder forty one year old Holly Holm. Luke, 925 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 1: you know the damning stat when talking about Holly. She's 926 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 1: four and six overall counting. 927 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 3: The Rossi fight. 928 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: Ever since the Rossi excuse me, yeah, six, But dude, 929 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 1: outside of the Kaitlyn Via split decision loss, which I 930 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 1: felt you could have gone either way, you would say 931 00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 1: she only loses two champions, correct. Gdr Misha te Amanda 932 00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:55,480 Speaker 1: Nunas like that, Luke, She's a better fighter matchup to 933 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: matchup in this matchup. And that's why, Luke, I'm gonna 934 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:01,439 Speaker 1: take Holly Holm, who is a minus two fifty favorite here. 935 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:04,480 Speaker 1: That's a very safe smart vet because she can wrestle. 936 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: In this latter version of her look. People will scream 937 00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,640 Speaker 1: that she's overrated, but against this level of competition, she 938 00:41:10,719 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 1: does the job. 939 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 3: Remember when she schooled me and Anderson? Do you remember that? 940 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:13,480 Speaker 3: Mm hmm. 941 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: It's gonna be one of those fights. Why you just 942 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 1: not into it? 943 00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 3: Can we move along? You're just not into UFC at all? 944 00:41:18,640 --> 00:41:19,320 Speaker 3: Can we move along? 945 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,399 Speaker 1: At what point did you lose interest in the show? 946 00:41:21,560 --> 00:41:23,960 Speaker 1: I saw it coming early. I saw like little pockets. 947 00:41:23,640 --> 00:41:25,600 Speaker 3: And then it just like, I don't have interest in 948 00:41:25,640 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 3: not doing the show. I have interest in actually doing 949 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 3: the show. So we go to the next women's ban 950 00:41:30,239 --> 00:41:32,319 Speaker 3: on weights matter they do, they do just not as 951 00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:34,120 Speaker 3: much as you like to imagine. All Right, for my 952 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 3: underdog pick BC, I'm gonna go Albert Deriav. Albert Draiav 953 00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 3: is taking on Cheety and Ji Kawani and according to 954 00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 3: our friends at Caesar's, currently sits at a plus one 955 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:47,520 Speaker 3: thirty spot. So it's very close. It's very competitive. Really, 956 00:41:47,560 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 3: this fight hinges on whether or not he can get 957 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,959 Speaker 3: the takedown. It's really not so clear. So I'm gonna 958 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 3: take a guess that he can and he can either 959 00:41:54,719 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 3: get enough control time or a good ground and pound 960 00:41:57,640 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 3: to get the win. She did, and Ji Kawani has 961 00:42:00,080 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 3: much improve takedown defense, but I think once he starts 962 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 3: to chang wrestling attempts together, take down attempts together, that's 963 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:08,880 Speaker 3: going to come undone. I like Chid excuse me, I 964 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:12,160 Speaker 3: like Albert Dryev as my underdog pick for this week. Lucas. 965 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:14,399 Speaker 1: Time for me to pick my underdog, and I'm going 966 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 1: to that featured about off UFC San Antonio the fight 967 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 1: Night card and it's in the bandamweight division. We got 968 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,359 Speaker 1: to say we were wrong the other day we had 969 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: Cheeto Vera. You read the odds incorrect, you read it. 970 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: I did, sorry about that and I didn't check it. 971 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: We had Chido Vera as the favorite the whole time 972 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:30,880 Speaker 1: as we were giving analysis. Luke Cory Saneagen is technically 973 00:42:30,920 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: here the betting favorite. 974 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,200 Speaker 3: Now you can understand that. Correct. Umm, yes, there's a fight. 975 00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 3: You want to talk about it? 976 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,239 Speaker 1: I was, will you stop, I'm trying to get get 977 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 1: in on the same line with the emotionally, you know, I. 978 00:42:41,560 --> 00:42:45,760 Speaker 3: Am here to do the show. I am, you know, candidly, 979 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 3: I'll be lying if I said it wasn't a little 980 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 3: bit surprised. Now the odds are close, yeah, so you know, 981 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:52,120 Speaker 3: and again the odds are made in a way to 982 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 3: induce betting. They're not a full reflection of the reality. 983 00:42:56,840 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 3: I'm a little surprised. I again, Corey has faced much 984 00:43:01,080 --> 00:43:03,400 Speaker 3: tougher competition, and I think his record has suffered a 985 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 3: little bit for that. 986 00:43:04,360 --> 00:43:05,840 Speaker 1: But you would say he's battle tested. It's not like 987 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 1: we're seeing getting KO'ed. 988 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:07,799 Speaker 3: Let's super battle testing. 989 00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:09,880 Speaker 1: It goes five hard rounds with elite dudes. 990 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, and Cheeto is battle tested in his own way, 991 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 3: like he's been in the organization for a while. He has. 992 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:17,840 Speaker 3: You can't say he hasn't worked his way up the 993 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:21,799 Speaker 3: food chain. He most definitely has. He's writing high momentum. Again, 994 00:43:21,840 --> 00:43:24,759 Speaker 3: it's the two factors we talked about. His physical sturdiness 995 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:27,920 Speaker 3: is one, and his ability to work at kicking range 996 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,759 Speaker 3: with more pressure over time. We call him the king 997 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 3: of the five rounders on this show. He really is 998 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:37,080 Speaker 3: for that reason, I'm slightly surprised. But again, who has 999 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,319 Speaker 3: more overall skills? Cory Sandhagan does, and I think they 1000 00:43:40,360 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 3: might be looking at. 1001 00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:42,680 Speaker 1: Well, look, it plays into my underdog pick care of 1002 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:45,560 Speaker 1: cheeto Vera. Luke at plus one point thirty eight, it's 1003 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,799 Speaker 1: as close as can be. But he's got the he's 1004 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:50,799 Speaker 1: got the biggest weapon because Corey, he's standing to taking 1005 00:43:50,880 --> 00:43:52,719 Speaker 1: have more ways to control elements of the fight and 1006 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 1: maybe even win it. Yes, but who has the biggest 1007 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:57,680 Speaker 1: gun in the fight, Luke, it's Marlin cheeto Vera. 1008 00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,520 Speaker 3: Look, you would you say that he's he's. 1009 00:44:00,400 --> 00:44:03,640 Speaker 1: Operating at an almost twenty nineteen mas Vidalian Yeah, a 1010 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:05,480 Speaker 1: little bit where it's like just in the form of 1011 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 1: being able to turn just a moment into instant violence 1012 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:10,480 Speaker 1: that changes the course of the fight. 1013 00:44:10,719 --> 00:44:12,719 Speaker 3: That and he's got a certain. 1014 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 1: Give him five rounds too, you're giving him five rounds 1015 00:44:15,800 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: to figure this out. 1016 00:44:16,480 --> 00:44:17,760 Speaker 3: Too, you know what I mean. I have an interviewed 1017 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:19,319 Speaker 3: Cheeto in a while, but I used to interview him 1018 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,080 Speaker 3: and there was a certain kind of humble, happy to 1019 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 3: be there kind of attitude. Yeah that's gone, that's gone. Dude. 1020 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:27,080 Speaker 3: He's got real he wants the money, he wants you 1021 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:30,360 Speaker 3: listen to him talk man. He's got a real hitman mentality. 1022 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 3: He believes he's better than these guys. I think for 1023 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 3: the first time, not ever, but like right at this moment, 1024 00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 3: I think he believes he can win a title. I 1025 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,480 Speaker 3: think he's he believes he's destined to win one. The 1026 00:44:40,520 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 3: way which he's performing is better than ever. He switched 1027 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:47,880 Speaker 3: coaches from Colin Oyama to Jason Pirillo. I think that 1028 00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:51,640 Speaker 3: has really upped some of the finer tuning of his 1029 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 3: game that he needed. And he looks dynamite. He looks dynamite. Butt. 1030 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,919 Speaker 3: I texted briefly with Ryan Hall yesterday, who's cornering core 1031 00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,040 Speaker 3: san Haagen, and they seem to think that that, you know, 1032 00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 3: Corey has really right to the corner. A great fight. 1033 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,279 Speaker 1: I mean, it's a great fricking fight. I'm gonna go 1034 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: the upset pick. But before before we I'm that's official 1035 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: for okay Bet. He is my underdog, Cheeto Vera. I 1036 00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 1: feel like I'm getting I feel like I'm I believe 1037 00:45:14,480 --> 00:45:16,239 Speaker 1: in this guy here. But look before we get your 1038 00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:19,200 Speaker 1: take on this. Outside of Okay Bet. Colleague of ours, 1039 00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:22,360 Speaker 1: Shaquille MAJORI, you know, I'm from CBS Sports Vancouver, the 1040 00:45:22,360 --> 00:45:25,680 Speaker 1: Prince of Persia. He caught up with Corey Sanhagen and 1041 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 1: they talked about this exact challenge. 1042 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:29,399 Speaker 3: Let's hear from team san Hagu. 1043 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 7: He's like a very grounded fighter, right, so he doesn't 1044 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 7: rely on his footwork to win, and that's fine, you know, 1045 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 7: like that's great. Uh, I rely on my footwork to win. 1046 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 7: Cruiser's given him some troubles. Cruise doesn't really have like 1047 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 7: the greatest guard in the world, Like his hands don't 1048 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,960 Speaker 7: really come back to his face much. So there's like 1049 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,279 Speaker 7: that mistake. I do think that I'm a much better 1050 00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 7: defensive fighter. Maybe I won't say much better, but I'm 1051 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 7: a better defensive fighter than I think Cruiz is just 1052 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 7: because I had better hand position than a better guard. 1053 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:04,400 Speaker 7: But you know, I think that Gido is going to 1054 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 7: pressure me. He's going to try to make it kind 1055 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,840 Speaker 7: of an ugly fight. I think that he's going to 1056 00:46:09,920 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 7: try to do his best to wear on me. He's 1057 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 7: going to try to do his best to make me 1058 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 7: move my feet so that I run out of energy. 1059 00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:21,120 Speaker 7: And I'm going to do my best to you know, 1060 00:46:21,440 --> 00:46:24,200 Speaker 7: not let any of those things happen. And I'm ready 1061 00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:26,200 Speaker 7: to take the fight wherever the fight needs to go. 1062 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:31,000 Speaker 7: I'm a quiet, humble kind of guy, you know, so 1063 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 7: I don't really get to show the dog that's inside 1064 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:35,759 Speaker 7: me sometimes, you know, in my last couple, I kind 1065 00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 7: of have. But if that's what I got to do 1066 00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,480 Speaker 7: to win, and That's what I'll do to win too. 1067 00:46:40,560 --> 00:46:44,480 Speaker 7: So I'm ready for however ugly or however beautiful Saturday 1068 00:46:44,600 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 7: night is. I'm ready for the both of them. 1069 00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 1: He's got that dog and them, Luke, does he get 1070 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:48,600 Speaker 1: to win on Saturday? 1071 00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,239 Speaker 3: Well, I didn't make that pick. I didn't do that 1072 00:46:53,280 --> 00:46:54,920 Speaker 3: for my thing. Do you do? 1073 00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,759 Speaker 1: You you lean either way or you're just like, let's 1074 00:46:56,800 --> 00:47:03,400 Speaker 1: enjoy it. I don't know that's painful. I just are 1075 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:04,480 Speaker 1: you passing kidney stones? 1076 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 3: Quite? I It's almost like I need to see what 1077 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 3: Corey's got in this performance to understand where he's at, 1078 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:14,920 Speaker 3: you know, look at this is a performance that's calling 1079 00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 3: on him to do something. 1080 00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:19,240 Speaker 1: Different, and I'm getting care can't keep. 1081 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,680 Speaker 3: Doing the ship you've been doing. He's so talented. But 1082 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 3: we talked about some of the mistakes and the strategic, 1083 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 3: you know, visions. I think we need to be retooled. 1084 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,320 Speaker 3: And this is this is that moment where it's like, Okay, 1085 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:31,920 Speaker 3: did he figure all that out? At least a big 1086 00:47:31,960 --> 00:47:34,560 Speaker 3: part of that out. I'd like to believe he can't. 1087 00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,800 Speaker 3: He's too smart, he's too talented not to. But do 1088 00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:40,960 Speaker 3: Cheeto Vera is a fucking brick wall. Look at Tristan 1089 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 3: nodding right, don't you agree, Tristan? Well, where are you? Tristan? 1090 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 3: Are you san Haagen or or Cheeto? This weekend? Cheat you? 1091 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,920 Speaker 1: And you know how Tristan lives his life too write 1092 00:47:50,040 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 1: damage and destruction, just like. 1093 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:57,840 Speaker 3: Why I stop at your by decision by decision? Interesting? 1094 00:47:57,880 --> 00:47:59,719 Speaker 3: All right? Can we finish our picks? Because That's where 1095 00:47:59,719 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 3: I'm at. 1096 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 1: No, we can't, because Luke, I've got an interesting thing. 1097 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: You think Corey san Hagen's thinking about winning this fight 1098 00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:09,440 Speaker 1: and then fighting the winner of Suhudo versus al Jo. 1099 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,640 Speaker 1: I think he's not necessarily his topic two. 1100 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:13,839 Speaker 3: We can get to that a little now. 1101 00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:16,120 Speaker 1: We got to finish this splendid together because why would 1102 00:48:16,120 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 1: you go back to it? It would fee odd and awkward, 1103 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 1: So we close with it right now. Before we continue, 1104 00:48:19,640 --> 00:48:21,600 Speaker 1: here's Cory san Hey can talk about who we would 1105 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:22,359 Speaker 1: really want to fight. 1106 00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:25,919 Speaker 3: I think just like things are kind of being held 1107 00:48:26,000 --> 00:48:28,280 Speaker 3: up a bet because you have Shudo, you have Morob 1108 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 3: not wanting to fight al Joe. It's a little messy 1109 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 3: at the top end. 1110 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,319 Speaker 7: It seems a little bit messy. I think that I 1111 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,000 Speaker 7: personally feel like the next fight for me should be 1112 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:43,280 Speaker 7: against Morob. I think that Morob is definitely the toughest 1113 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,879 Speaker 7: guy who isn't the champ right now. I think that 1114 00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 7: he showed that in his last fight. His last fight 1115 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 7: was like very inspiring even for me. It made me 1116 00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 7: want to get like a lot a lot better, So 1117 00:48:53,400 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 7: I think that that'll be the next fight. I keep 1118 00:48:55,719 --> 00:48:58,680 Speaker 7: hearing whispers about O'Malley being the next one to fight 1119 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:01,480 Speaker 7: for the bell after this Hudo and Sternlon fight, So 1120 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,279 Speaker 7: if they do that, then you know, Morov seems like 1121 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 7: a very energetic guy who doesn't want to sit on 1122 00:49:06,560 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 7: the couch for very long.

He's a volume puncher. 1212 00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,840 Speaker 1: He gets inside. I think he'll win this fight comfortably, 1213 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:39,359 Speaker 1: but it's gonna go the distance and I'm gonna catch 1214 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:40,360 Speaker 1: up to you based on this pack. 1215 00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:41,640 Speaker 3: All right for enough and then last but not least, 1216 00:52:41,640 --> 00:52:44,759 Speaker 3: for Ko sub I'm gonna go Vinisia Salvador U and 1217 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:49,640 Speaker 3: versus Victor Altamirano.

Actually, no topic one was you 1234 00:53:32,719 --> 00:53:35,319 Speaker 3: see as it's listed here. This is clearly topic three. Yeah, 1235 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:37,239 Speaker 3: but then I merged two into one. Right, it's still 1236 00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:38,560 Speaker 3: topic three. Just move through it. 1237 00:53:38,600 --> 00:53:40,359 Speaker 1: Well, if you put two into one, then that becomes two. 1238 00:53:40,560 --> 00:53:43,040 Speaker 1: I mean, this is right, but it's listed topic three here, 1239 00:53:43,160 --> 00:53:47,200 Speaker 1: just right. But we freestyled shit that's labeled here. This 1240 00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:48,000 Speaker 1: is what they go by. 1241 00:53:48,040 --> 00:53:51,000 Speaker 3: They don't go by like your impromptu reclassification. 1242 00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:55,120 Speaker 1: They don't insufferable would be the jective I'm looking at. 1243 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 3: That's clearly looking at. 1244 00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 1: Hey, Paulo Coaster of the UFC, he's gonna he's back, 1245 00:53:58,960 --> 00:54:01,120 Speaker 1: He's he's three signed with the Protocean. We saw some 1246 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:03,680 Speaker 1: back and forth of whether he would exercise his free agency. 1247 00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,360 Speaker 1: He talked about his new deal with PVT. 1248 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,680 Speaker 3: What is that? That is the outlet who broke the news. 1249 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 3: It's a Brazilian one. Okay, I'm thinking p YT pretty 1250 00:54:12,160 --> 00:54:16,160 Speaker 3: young thing, right, uh, pretty young thing. I just want 1251 00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:18,440 Speaker 3: to love you, PETI. 1252 00:54:20,320 --> 00:54:22,239 Speaker 1: I haven't signed the contract yet, but we have reached 1253 00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:24,839 Speaker 1: the deal with the UFC. Regarding pay, Coasta said, it 1254 00:54:24,920 --> 00:54:27,239 Speaker 1: wasn't easy. There was a lot of hard work, and 1255 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:29,719 Speaker 1: I have to highlight Tomorrow's brilliant work here. 1256 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 3: Who's tomorrow beats the fun out of me? 1257 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 1: I'm going to g we put this information toge Okay, 1258 00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:36,120 Speaker 1: I want that too, he says. Of fighting Hamza and 1259 00:54:36,160 --> 00:54:40,000 Speaker 1: Strickland in twenty twenty three, Costa said, facing them both 1260 00:54:40,040 --> 00:54:42,160 Speaker 1: back to back would be the ideal plan. The UFC 1261 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 1: wants to make sure the Chamaya fight happens at all costs, 1262 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:47,799 Speaker 1: Coasta said, and I want to make both fight happen both. 1263 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:51,040 Speaker 1: Does that happen both this year for Costa, Sean Strickland 1264 00:54:51,160 --> 00:54:51,720 Speaker 1: and Hamsa. 1265 00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 3: I think it might. I think it might. Costa did 1266 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 3: what I think is the most rational thing for a 1267 00:54:57,400 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 3: contender of his status to do. The reality is, if 1268 00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:02,320 Speaker 3: you're Francis in Ganu and maybe you could get a 1269 00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:04,640 Speaker 3: Deontay Wilder fight, maybe you get a Tyson Fury fight. 1270 00:55:04,640 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 3: We'll talk about that in just a minute. Because Fury 1271 00:55:06,920 --> 00:55:09,600 Speaker 3: in USIC has gone up in smoke, then maybe you 1272 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:11,160 Speaker 3: want to go do that, or Nate Diz go get 1273 00:55:11,160 --> 00:55:12,960 Speaker 3: a boxing fight and whatever. But with all these guys 1274 00:55:13,000 --> 00:55:14,759 Speaker 3: are going to realize them if they don't already. I'm sure. 1275 00:55:14,880 --> 00:55:18,200 Speaker 3: I'm sure their managers do the best money they can 1276 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:20,360 Speaker 3: get in a monopolized market, is still going to be 1277 00:55:20,360 --> 00:55:22,560 Speaker 3: with the UFC in general, not for everyone, but certainly 1278 00:55:22,560 --> 00:55:24,719 Speaker 3: in a PA or by review guy like this, not 1279 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 3: out a headliner, but on the main card kind of guy. 1280 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 3: So what he did was he probably went and got 1281 00:55:30,520 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 3: other offers and then got re signed, or even through 1282 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,080 Speaker 3: the new exclusive negotiating period, was able to leverage a 1283 00:55:37,080 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 3: little bit more out of it given what the open 1284 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:41,799 Speaker 3: market might bear for him to then go back to 1285 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:43,759 Speaker 3: the UFC and get a higher amount. I think that's 1286 00:55:43,960 --> 00:55:46,800 Speaker 3: probably ended up what happened, and that's the most rational 1287 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:49,760 Speaker 3: course for someone I think of his stature and potential future. 1288 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:51,800 Speaker 3: It's a signing that makes sense for all the parties. 1289 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:54,319 Speaker 3: He wants to stay active. Everyone wants to see Coasta 1290 00:55:54,400 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 3: versus hamsat or. You know, I don't think people would 1291 00:55:57,520 --> 00:56:00,359 Speaker 3: scoff at Coasta versus Strickland. It's a good signing. 1292 00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:00,719 Speaker 8: Sure. 1293 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 1: Here's the key question though, has he fully transitioned to 1294 00:56:04,680 --> 00:56:07,880 Speaker 1: exciting opponent for big names or is there still a 1295 00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 1: window where he could make a run as a title 1296 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:10,279 Speaker 1: contender he. 1297 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:13,520 Speaker 3: Would have to after the is he lost? I think 1298 00:56:13,520 --> 00:56:15,839 Speaker 3: people were like, oh right, he's a bit of a 1299 00:56:15,920 --> 00:56:19,080 Speaker 3: he's good, he's dangerous, but what else is he? And 1300 00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 3: remember Vittori beat him too, right, So. 1301 00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a bad los And that's not a bad loss. 1302 00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 1: That was you know, it was a close fight for 1303 00:56:25,840 --> 00:56:28,280 Speaker 1: Toy's you know, he's a big dude. I'm just saying 1304 00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 1: he should have won that if he really was what 1305 00:56:30,920 --> 00:56:31,480 Speaker 1: I just asked you. 1306 00:56:31,680 --> 00:56:33,439 Speaker 3: He still is, so he's going to have to beat 1307 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 3: someone along the way to restore that confidence. 1308 00:56:36,960 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 1: But look, he makes fun of I mean, look that 1309 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:40,120 Speaker 1: fight with him and Yuel is one of my favorite 1310 00:56:40,120 --> 00:56:41,840 Speaker 1: fights in UFC is it's one of the craziest. That 1311 00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:46,359 Speaker 1: first round is just it's sex, It's shick. The real 1312 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:48,919 Speaker 1: topic number three here, Luke, is something that is going 1313 00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:52,720 Speaker 1: to get me very the hell excited. Dustin Pourier, fresh 1314 00:56:52,719 --> 00:56:55,440 Speaker 1: off the All Action win over Michael Chandler, in questions 1315 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 1: of whether he would go back into the pool there 1316 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 1: of potential UFC lightweight title challengers or just make can't 1317 00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 1: miss absolutely awesome action fights against other absolutely awesome action fighters. 1318 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,120 Speaker 1: Luke and the history of absolutely awesome action fights at 1319 00:57:11,160 --> 00:57:14,280 Speaker 1: lightweight over recent years, which covered so many great names 1320 00:57:14,280 --> 00:57:18,760 Speaker 1: from Alvarez, RDA Gaiche Chandler Poitier. The best matchup ever 1321 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 1: together was. 1322 00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:23,320 Speaker 3: Pier Gochee. 1323 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:26,560 Speaker 1: Yes, and guess what, Dustin Poorier likes the idea of 1324 00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:28,479 Speaker 1: doing that a second time. He talked to fan side 1325 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:31,080 Speaker 1: to THEMMA and said, it's a fight that makes me nervous. 1326 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: When I hear a name and I get nervous. 1327 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:34,120 Speaker 3: It's motivation. 1328 00:57:34,800 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 1: Same thing with Chandler. When I heard Chandler's name when 1329 00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:39,200 Speaker 1: they called it, I was nervous because I knew the 1330 00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: dangers of those kinds of fights, and that's what motivates me. 1331 00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:45,240 Speaker 1: Same thing with Justin. If they call me and he's 1332 00:57:45,280 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 1: the name, they say, maybe we'll make it happen. We'll 1333 00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 1: see jus give me that New York City call main event. 1334 00:57:53,320 --> 00:57:56,640 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah? What do you make of Poorier wanting this fight? 1335 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 3: Why would he want this fight? He's already beaten this guy. 1336 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:02,560 Speaker 1: Does he have intel that he's not potentially next at 1337 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,640 Speaker 1: the lightweight title or does he not want to potentially 1338 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:08,040 Speaker 1: fight the current lightweight champion knowing what might happen. 1339 00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:11,240 Speaker 3: I'm asking you seriously, I definitely think he wants the 1340 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:13,439 Speaker 3: Islam fight just just because it's a chance to fight 1341 00:58:13,480 --> 00:58:15,080 Speaker 3: for the title. Right If nothing. 1342 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not questioning if he's about that life. 1343 00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:18,400 Speaker 3: But yeah, i'bo'd to say that's not fair. 1344 00:58:18,480 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 1: Does he feel like it's not next? So let's stay busy, 1345 00:58:21,520 --> 00:58:22,960 Speaker 1: make money, and you know, and. 1346 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:25,919 Speaker 3: Also Justin has a big name. I think he wants 1347 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 3: to fight big name guys, the people that fit the 1348 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,400 Speaker 3: fights that the fans care about. He does have seemed 1349 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 3: to have his finger on the pulse about that. Their 1350 00:58:31,920 --> 00:58:34,480 Speaker 3: first one was so good. But also like remember that 1351 00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,680 Speaker 3: is pre two point zero Justin Gaechee. That is Justin geigee, 1352 00:58:37,720 --> 00:58:40,960 Speaker 3: still fighting on that old world series of fighting style. 1353 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,560 Speaker 3: That's just not really who he is. I mean, still 1354 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:45,600 Speaker 3: some of that guy, but obviously we know he's made 1355 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,440 Speaker 3: leaps and bounds in terms of technical progression. That's a 1356 00:58:48,480 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 3: different fight this time. And that last one, by the way, 1357 00:58:51,200 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 3: was three round excuse me, was five rounds I believe, 1358 00:58:54,040 --> 00:58:55,840 Speaker 3: And so you would want to do this one five 1359 00:58:55,960 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 3: rounds as well. So you're saying as a comain, I 1360 00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:58,840 Speaker 3: don't know how I feel about it. 1361 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,080 Speaker 1: Sometimes they put five round non titled Coleman. 1362 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:02,960 Speaker 3: Just for shit sotime that I'm just saying, I wouldn't 1363 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:04,960 Speaker 3: want to interrupt that process, However, they want to make 1364 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,840 Speaker 3: it happen. So I like the fight. It's an interesting 1365 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:10,800 Speaker 3: choice by Dustin for the reasons you articulated. Maybe it 1366 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:12,160 Speaker 3: feel like he has to get one more. Maybe it's 1367 00:59:12,160 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 3: a big name, who knows, but it's a different fight 1368 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 3: this time. It's a blood and guts fight no matter 1369 00:59:17,360 --> 00:59:19,960 Speaker 3: what count me in. I like the idea. 1370 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:22,120 Speaker 1: Do you want to see fights like this just be 1371 00:59:22,160 --> 00:59:24,240 Speaker 1: pay per view main events because they can be. 1372 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 3: It's not big enough for a pay per view main event. 1373 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:29,760 Speaker 3: Rashod versus Rampage was they had just come off the 1374 00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:31,600 Speaker 3: most highly rated season of The Ultimate Fight. 1375 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:33,800 Speaker 1: Oh that was a Kimbos season shop Season two? 1376 00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 3: That's no. 1377 00:59:35,080 --> 00:59:37,479 Speaker 1: Season ten wasn't shop in the Kimbos season? 1378 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 3: Yes with Matre. Season ten. Isn't that the season where 1379 00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:42,760 Speaker 3: Rampage broke a door against Rushot? Yes? Ten? Yeah, that's 1380 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:44,640 Speaker 3: what I said. Oh I said season two? No, I 1381 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 3: didn't say season nothing. I said same season like too. 1382 00:59:47,560 --> 00:59:49,640 Speaker 3: Oh okay, yes. 1383 00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 1: Look, we already talked about Dana White still having hopes 1384 00:59:51,760 --> 00:59:52,520 Speaker 1: for Zoofo boxing. 1385 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 3: You don't care about that, right? I just find it baffling. 1386 00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 3: It's like, dude, by federal law, there have to be 1387 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 3: independent rankings. The promoter in boxing, by law, is not 1388 01:00:04,080 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 3: allowed to keep the title they have. They have, they 1389 01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:12,160 Speaker 3: have ALI Act protections by law. What on earth about 1390 01:00:12,200 --> 01:00:14,320 Speaker 3: the UFC's business model works with any of. 1391 01:00:14,320 --> 01:00:16,560 Speaker 1: It unless they're and here, First of all, here's the 1392 01:00:16,600 --> 01:00:18,760 Speaker 1: quote to the Sports Business Journal. I don't know if 1393 01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:20,680 Speaker 1: I can fix the sport, but I think I can 1394 01:00:20,720 --> 01:00:22,440 Speaker 1: put on fights that the people want to see, and 1395 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,479 Speaker 1: I can make boxing interesting again and build a brand 1396 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:24,840 Speaker 1: around it. 1397 01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:25,560 Speaker 3: End quote. 1398 01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,480 Speaker 1: Danny you said this five years ago and three years ago, and. 1399 01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:30,640 Speaker 3: Saying this, he's saying this off of the week where 1400 01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 3: he lost his champion. 1401 01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 1: Like if unless he's the one that could we're gonna 1402 01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:38,360 Speaker 1: talk about Fury and Usic like next. But unless he's 1403 01:00:38,360 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 1: the one that could come in there and bring all 1404 01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 1: parties together and get everybody happy and save it and say, hey, 1405 01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:45,160 Speaker 1: we'll just distribute, distribute it, like what if he if 1406 01:00:45,160 --> 01:00:47,400 Speaker 1: this is more about an overarching put your fights on 1407 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:49,960 Speaker 1: UFC five pass, They're already boxing promotions that do that, correct, 1408 01:00:50,040 --> 01:00:52,439 Speaker 1: So if it's something to that degree, could they ever 1409 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 1: put a big fight? But the problem is nobody's like 1410 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 1: independent free agents. Everybody worth assault for the most part, 1411 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,360 Speaker 1: is tied to a network and a promotion. So unless 1412 01:01:00,360 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna come in and directly partner with somebody, unless 1413 01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:05,280 Speaker 1: you're gonna, you know, say, when Top Ranks deals up 1414 01:01:05,320 --> 01:01:08,160 Speaker 1: with ESPN, you know, come come, you know, will distribute everything, 1415 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:10,440 Speaker 1: that's not gonna happen either. So I don't I don't 1416 01:01:10,480 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 1: know unless. But here's what he should be doing is, 1417 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:14,520 Speaker 1: and I've said this before, what he should be doing 1418 01:01:14,720 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 1: is taking all his retired UFC fighters that want to 1419 01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:18,560 Speaker 1: make money in boxing and just running that propce. 1420 01:01:18,600 --> 01:01:20,240 Speaker 3: So there's that. So what I was thinking was, could 1421 01:01:20,280 --> 01:01:22,600 Speaker 3: you do something between boxing and between the Jake Paul 1422 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:24,440 Speaker 3: model where you find someone who's not really a world 1423 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,800 Speaker 3: beater and never going to be a world champion, but 1424 01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,439 Speaker 3: have built build them up on fight pass, have them 1425 01:01:29,440 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 3: fight UFC fighters along the way to build up their name, 1426 01:01:32,280 --> 01:01:35,200 Speaker 3: and then occasionally cash in on a on a big 1427 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,120 Speaker 3: fight through building these guys up the whole way, and 1428 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:41,280 Speaker 3: then right like, could you have individual performances or individual 1429 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:43,600 Speaker 3: fights and fighters that you promote along the way and 1430 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:45,960 Speaker 3: make some money. Probably, but I just don't know how 1431 01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 3: it's going to be anything more than that. The reason 1432 01:01:48,040 --> 01:01:50,080 Speaker 3: that the UFC model works the way that it does 1433 01:01:50,640 --> 01:01:55,920 Speaker 3: is because it lacks any laws that boxing demands. How 1434 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 3: the fuck do you make that work? You can't they 1435 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:02,080 Speaker 3: they own their own title, they own ther own rankings. 1436 01:02:01,840 --> 01:02:04,480 Speaker 3: It's and you utterly different regulatory environment. 1437 01:02:04,520 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 1: You can't make a splash in the current state of 1438 01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 1: network's promotions and all that unless you're willing to lose 1439 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 1: a ridiculous amount. 1440 01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:11,880 Speaker 3: Of me it wants to burn money. I don't quite 1441 01:02:11,880 --> 01:02:14,480 Speaker 3: get that either. Yeah, I mean, I'm not saying if 1442 01:02:14,520 --> 01:02:16,440 Speaker 3: you talk to if you talk to people in the 1443 01:02:16,440 --> 01:02:19,600 Speaker 3: boxing world about Dana White potentially getting involved, Here's what 1444 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:21,840 Speaker 3: I've noticed. They're not really against it. People in the 1445 01:02:21,840 --> 01:02:23,440 Speaker 3: boxing world. They don't seem to find that that's a 1446 01:02:23,440 --> 01:02:26,880 Speaker 3: bad idea. They've kind of welcome. Hey, another promoter coming 1447 01:02:26,920 --> 01:02:29,720 Speaker 3: through could make things interesting. Obviously they've had a lot 1448 01:02:29,720 --> 01:02:31,800 Speaker 3: of success with the UFC. But then when you begin 1449 01:02:31,840 --> 01:02:34,120 Speaker 3: to ask the specific questions about how they're going to 1450 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 3: operate a given the way that they operate already in MMA, 1451 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:40,440 Speaker 3: which is completely different by law, and then be to 1452 01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:43,160 Speaker 3: your point, everyone that matters is under lock and key, 1453 01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:46,240 Speaker 3: at least for right now. What is the reasonable path 1454 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:49,440 Speaker 3: to doing something meaningful in the space. There are some lanes, 1455 01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 3: but they're just not very pronounced ones. That's what makes 1456 01:02:52,200 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 3: it interesting. Yeah, it's it's weird. 1457 01:02:54,240 --> 01:02:56,920 Speaker 1: Luke boxing is the biggest story that broke out is 1458 01:02:57,440 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 1: totally hashtag boxing. That's what happens when great fight get 1459 01:03:00,560 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 1: basically announced and then they don't happen. 1460 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:05,640 Speaker 3: I had a lot of things to say about this. 1461 01:03:05,720 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: Tyson Fury Alexander Usik all four world titles, two unbeaten, 1462 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 1: like all time great champions here. You know Usik for 1463 01:03:12,400 --> 01:03:14,640 Speaker 1: what he did in cruiserweight mix with heavyweight in the 1464 01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:19,040 Speaker 1: Olympic gold medal, and Tyson Fury being the dominant heavyweight 1465 01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:20,919 Speaker 1: of this era even though he has yet to fit 1466 01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:24,040 Speaker 1: face and defeat every single one, this fight seemed like 1467 01:03:24,080 --> 01:03:28,120 Speaker 1: an absolute no brainer promotionally in network wise. And then 1468 01:03:28,160 --> 01:03:30,960 Speaker 1: you had Tyson Fury forcing Usik to take a seventy 1469 01:03:31,040 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 1: thirty financial split and accepting that even though Usik is 1470 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:37,960 Speaker 1: unbeaten too has three world titles as opposed to one 1471 01:03:38,040 --> 01:03:40,680 Speaker 1: for Fury, and you know, okay, no, he's not the 1472 01:03:40,720 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 1: marketing sensation Fury is, but critically few better in this 1473 01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: world pound for pound that got accepted but then Luke 1474 01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 1: rematch negotiations got to the point where Fury began to 1475 01:03:52,120 --> 01:03:55,560 Speaker 1: demand everything related to the rematch and wanted the same control, 1476 01:03:55,680 --> 01:03:59,880 Speaker 1: meaning seventy thirty splits in control over everything. Finally US 1477 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 1: sixteen appeared to walk away and say like this is 1478 01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:05,080 Speaker 1: too much? How much more can we give you? Do 1479 01:04:05,160 --> 01:04:06,960 Speaker 1: you actually want this fight? 1480 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 3: Well? 1481 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 1: Tyson Fury put out a video on Instagram to answer that. 1482 01:04:12,680 --> 01:04:17,320 Speaker 8: Useek, you little shit house, you prop a little shit bag, 1483 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:21,520 Speaker 8: bogg eye, gappy teeth, ugly, little rat bastard, You little 1484 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 8: slimy fucker tried all wait to get out of it, 1485 01:04:25,000 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 8: begging for a rematch like a little girl. You got 1486 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:29,520 Speaker 8: your RMAPs and didn't even want to fight at that, 1487 01:04:29,920 --> 01:04:31,480 Speaker 8: your little shit house pussy. 1488 01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:33,680 Speaker 3: Always know pussy that he was. 1489 01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 8: Never man enough to tangle with a Gypsy king ever 1490 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:41,200 Speaker 8: in your life, you little shitouse, you little fourteen stone coward, 1491 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:45,320 Speaker 8: you little ship bag, your rat little bastard, and your 1492 01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:47,800 Speaker 8: full team now as well, and all the lawyers have 1493 01:04:47,840 --> 01:04:52,720 Speaker 8: got a full information, you little ugly bastard. Keep running 1494 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 8: fight you bought at a cop of box now, shit bag, 1495 01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:58,240 Speaker 8: and always know that you or anybody else like you 1496 01:04:58,240 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 8: could never tangle with a gypsy king shit housetuffle, coward, 1497 01:05:02,240 --> 01:05:02,959 Speaker 8: yell prak. 1498 01:05:03,200 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 3: You know he doesn't do it in this video, but 1499 01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:09,240 Speaker 3: he always calls his opponents like breakfast foods. It's like 1500 01:05:09,480 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 3: you little sausage, yeah, you little woffle. So, Luke, here's 1501 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:15,120 Speaker 3: the deal. 1502 01:05:16,120 --> 01:05:18,280 Speaker 1: You know, I've read every commentary you can, all the 1503 01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:20,320 Speaker 1: different people who are breaking news on this, Dan Rayphiel. 1504 01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,520 Speaker 1: That fight freaks unight. What the fuck they're saying up, Luke? 1505 01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:26,880 Speaker 1: It doesn't feel appear in every category here, like the 1506 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:28,960 Speaker 1: USIK team more or less was willing to take the 1507 01:05:29,040 --> 01:05:32,600 Speaker 1: knee and basically everything until the point that it got ridiculous. 1508 01:05:33,080 --> 01:05:36,480 Speaker 1: What was my fear going back six nine months ever 1509 01:05:36,560 --> 01:05:40,080 Speaker 1: since USIK beat Joshua the second time, that Fury would 1510 01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:41,880 Speaker 1: do the song and dance and not end up taking 1511 01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:44,480 Speaker 1: the fight, or he would do WWE or do Gananu, 1512 01:05:44,880 --> 01:05:47,240 Speaker 1: but constantly go, you know, back and forth with I'm 1513 01:05:47,240 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 1: retired today, I'm not tomorrow. And then he took a 1514 01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:51,760 Speaker 1: you know, tried to rush in AJ fight, which never 1515 01:05:51,800 --> 01:05:53,720 Speaker 1: he never really seemed all that serious and doing. And 1516 01:05:53,720 --> 01:05:56,360 Speaker 1: why would AJ rush back after a loss to USI? Right, 1517 01:05:56,400 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 1: you know, he needs time, new trainer, all that, and 1518 01:05:59,040 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 1: then fights on pay per view Derek Chosaura for a 1519 01:06:02,440 --> 01:06:04,520 Speaker 1: third time. But then we go, okay, but that's fine. 1520 01:06:04,960 --> 01:06:06,880 Speaker 1: Usik was hurt just a little bit, had to extend 1521 01:06:07,040 --> 01:06:09,920 Speaker 1: to March in terms of availability. Maybe Fury just wanted 1522 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:12,040 Speaker 1: a big payday and get himself all fired up for 1523 01:06:12,080 --> 01:06:15,280 Speaker 1: the fight. That Chosaura fight was completely unnecessary after he 1524 01:06:15,280 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: had two wins over it. And this is obviously a 1525 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:20,640 Speaker 1: much more faded version of Gesra. But Luke, all along 1526 01:06:20,680 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 1: eyed people from the UK and all around, go and 1527 01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:24,840 Speaker 1: see you're being too harsh. He wants this fight. You'll 1528 01:06:24,840 --> 01:06:28,280 Speaker 1: see You'll fight anybody anytime except for Usk. 1529 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:29,480 Speaker 3: Why. 1530 01:06:30,600 --> 01:06:33,160 Speaker 1: I think because at the end of the day, Fury 1531 01:06:33,240 --> 01:06:37,160 Speaker 1: knows that his combination of toughness, size, unique skills, pure 1532 01:06:37,200 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 1: boxing ability, being a genius, being a natural brawler, if 1533 01:06:40,200 --> 01:06:43,760 Speaker 1: he has to can beat almost every other heavyweight on 1534 01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:48,760 Speaker 1: this planet. I think he's somewhat unsure about Usik, and 1535 01:06:48,800 --> 01:06:50,520 Speaker 1: I think it's playing out in front of us right 1536 01:06:50,560 --> 01:06:53,920 Speaker 1: now that unless he gets one hundred percent control of 1537 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:55,560 Speaker 1: the Pie and Luke, you can argue, isn't that what 1538 01:06:55,720 --> 01:06:57,280 Speaker 1: tanks trying to do to Ryan in some of. 1539 01:06:57,280 --> 01:06:58,840 Speaker 3: These stipulations to some degrees. 1540 01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:01,680 Speaker 1: Yes, he's exercising, is a side part of it, but 1541 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:04,120 Speaker 1: it's just for the undisputed heavyweight championship. And the guy 1542 01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:05,840 Speaker 1: who has more titles than you said, Yeah, i'll take 1543 01:07:05,840 --> 01:07:07,760 Speaker 1: the thirty percent, I'll take the bad bake up. Let's 1544 01:07:07,800 --> 01:07:10,400 Speaker 1: just do this thing. But now we're haggling over a rematch. 1545 01:07:10,400 --> 01:07:12,640 Speaker 1: Who's right who's wrong. I don't think Fury wants the fight, 1546 01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:14,400 Speaker 1: and I think I've been right since the beginning on this. 1547 01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:16,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't look like to me he really wants 1548 01:07:16,360 --> 01:07:17,000 Speaker 3: it all that much. 1549 01:07:18,280 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 1: It's disappointing as shit. 1550 01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:22,080 Speaker 3: It is disappointing as shit. I was never I never 1551 01:07:22,120 --> 01:07:25,920 Speaker 3: had high confidence in it. You more so? Did you 1552 01:07:26,000 --> 01:07:28,280 Speaker 3: got what you got? You got way too excited for 1553 01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:28,760 Speaker 3: it before. 1554 01:07:28,760 --> 01:07:30,480 Speaker 1: Well, I tak it reported as you know, I mean, 1555 01:07:30,560 --> 01:07:31,760 Speaker 1: coppingers all over the place sometimes. 1556 01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:33,960 Speaker 3: But it got reported as it did. It did, and 1557 01:07:34,000 --> 01:07:35,800 Speaker 3: they've been close. They had been close to times, it 1558 01:07:35,840 --> 01:07:39,520 Speaker 3: turns out. But listen, every time I talk to one 1559 01:07:39,560 --> 01:07:41,840 Speaker 3: of these boxers who like either whether it's a tank 1560 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:45,640 Speaker 3: or a Garcia or that's yesterday with plant Benavidez. When 1561 01:07:45,640 --> 01:07:48,080 Speaker 3: you talk to the guys who are willing to take 1562 01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:50,400 Speaker 3: on the tougher fights, the bigger matchups, not that tests 1563 01:07:50,400 --> 01:07:52,240 Speaker 3: and Fury hasn't. I mean, he's made some big ones, 1564 01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:53,880 Speaker 3: but when you find out it's like, at the end 1565 01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:55,919 Speaker 3: of the day, dude, if they don't want it, it's 1566 01:07:56,000 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 3: no matter how much money you throw at them, it's 1567 01:07:57,840 --> 01:07:59,840 Speaker 3: kind of hard to get him to do it. They 1568 01:08:00,120 --> 01:08:04,640 Speaker 3: have to internally, truly general just they must want it. 1569 01:08:04,880 --> 01:08:07,720 Speaker 3: They must want those matchups, those matchups must be coveted 1570 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:11,040 Speaker 3: by them and what the winning confers upon them. Tyson 1571 01:08:11,120 --> 01:08:12,760 Speaker 3: just appears to be in a space where like he's 1572 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:17,799 Speaker 3: willing to take these risks, only only on extreme Yeah. 1573 01:08:17,640 --> 01:08:19,120 Speaker 1: But I think it's even further than that, Like, do 1574 01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 1: I think Tyson Fury is afraid of him physically? No, 1575 01:08:21,560 --> 01:08:23,639 Speaker 1: Fury would be favored to win, and to be fair, 1576 01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:27,240 Speaker 1: for Fury should win because he can't because he's an 1577 01:08:27,240 --> 01:08:29,439 Speaker 1: incredible boxer and whatever it was, he just doesn't really 1578 01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:31,680 Speaker 1: want it. It doesn't So do you think this is 1579 01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:33,040 Speaker 1: what I think he wants to do. I think he 1580 01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:35,800 Speaker 1: wants to knock out Joshua in front of ninety thousand 1581 01:08:35,840 --> 01:08:37,040 Speaker 1: people and then retire. 1582 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:40,840 Speaker 3: Right or and then take on goofball shit after that. Maybe, 1583 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:43,880 Speaker 3: so we have to criticize that. We have to. 1584 01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:46,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're the heavyweight of this generation. I've said it 1585 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:49,000 Speaker 1: before and I'll say it again. If Tyson Fury goes 1586 01:08:49,240 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 1: on to clean out this era, meaning he already got 1587 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:54,640 Speaker 1: Wilder three times and arguably won all three times. If 1588 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:57,160 Speaker 1: he can get Joshua and do that, he'd beat Dillian 1589 01:08:57,240 --> 01:09:00,439 Speaker 1: White by knockout him. He's you know, beat Tyson Vieimer 1590 01:09:00,520 --> 01:09:04,280 Speaker 1: Klitschko to take the world titles. If he does that 1591 01:09:04,360 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 1: against Usik two, and he's favored to do so, he's 1592 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:10,280 Speaker 1: going to be the heavyweight of this renaissance era. But 1593 01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:12,439 Speaker 1: because of his unbeaten record at that point, and his 1594 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:15,960 Speaker 1: size and his ridiculous mixture of skills that is so 1595 01:09:16,200 --> 01:09:21,439 Speaker 1: unique it's absurd, you could make incredibly ambitious arguments of 1596 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:23,559 Speaker 1: where he would belong in the top ten or even five, 1597 01:09:24,160 --> 01:09:27,679 Speaker 1: because who in history, size wise, skill wise can stand 1598 01:09:27,800 --> 01:09:30,360 Speaker 1: up to that if he doesn't clean out the era 1599 01:09:30,520 --> 01:09:36,240 Speaker 1: at the time. Should he care about history that much? Yeah, 1600 01:09:36,320 --> 01:09:38,439 Speaker 1: he put his whole life into this. He's already made 1601 01:09:38,479 --> 01:09:40,759 Speaker 1: a ton of money. He'd be favored to win against 1602 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 1: the smaller guy, then fight him, And why are we 1603 01:09:43,280 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 1: you know, I mean, do you believe anything from that video? 1604 01:09:45,400 --> 01:09:48,000 Speaker 3: We only have the information we have. Is there any 1605 01:09:48,040 --> 01:09:49,040 Speaker 3: blame here on the USK side? 1606 01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:51,400 Speaker 1: Because I'm going full on, like Fury's calling him all 1607 01:09:51,400 --> 01:09:53,200 Speaker 1: those names just to try to distract people from what's 1608 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:53,639 Speaker 1: really happening. 1609 01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:56,600 Speaker 3: I have a feeling that Usik and all these negotiations, 1610 01:09:56,920 --> 01:09:59,760 Speaker 3: both of these guys are probably being divas. But if 1611 01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:03,000 Speaker 3: you really wanted to whatever a fight falls apart, usually 1612 01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:06,880 Speaker 3: it's one one side initiating. Again, the Bud Crawford side 1613 01:10:06,960 --> 01:10:08,800 Speaker 3: was the one that pulled out from the Spence negotiations 1614 01:10:08,800 --> 01:10:10,479 Speaker 3: so we could go take money with b olk Prime. 1615 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:14,559 Speaker 3: How'd that go? And then on the other side again, 1616 01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:17,120 Speaker 3: I'm sure Usik has made some demands like oh really, 1617 01:10:17,320 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 3: what the fuck? But it just looks like Tyson doesn't 1618 01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:21,920 Speaker 3: really want it, just doesn't really want it, just doesn't 1619 01:10:21,920 --> 01:10:24,280 Speaker 3: think it Jesus is worth the squeeze unless it's under 1620 01:10:24,400 --> 01:10:26,720 Speaker 3: extreme contractual conditions. 1621 01:10:26,960 --> 01:10:29,280 Speaker 1: But what other extreme conditional condition could they have? He's 1622 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 1: got a seventy percent split. There have been talks about 1623 01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 1: going to the Middle East, where there's a ton of money. 1624 01:10:33,439 --> 01:10:35,559 Speaker 1: If you did that in a London Football Stadium, which 1625 01:10:35,560 --> 01:10:37,360 Speaker 1: is what we look like we were doing April twenty 1626 01:10:37,439 --> 01:10:40,280 Speaker 1: ninth when they kind of half announced that you're gonna sell, 1627 01:10:40,400 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 1: you know, at ninety thousand tickets. I know, not at 1628 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:43,760 Speaker 1: the same price we're used to in some case in 1629 01:10:43,800 --> 01:10:46,559 Speaker 1: the US. But like you're gonna what like you're gonna 1630 01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:48,880 Speaker 1: gain You're gonna be the un the four belt undisputed 1631 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:50,519 Speaker 1: undefeated champion. 1632 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:53,000 Speaker 3: Is that not it? Is that not a prize anymore? 1633 01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:54,880 Speaker 3: Is that not enough anymore? I guess it's not. Ye 1634 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:57,400 Speaker 3: have to answer your question. Yeah, it's not clearly. 1635 01:10:58,960 --> 01:11:00,920 Speaker 1: Look, I understand when people are on the opposite side 1636 01:11:00,960 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 1: of networks and sometimes you get close, but you don't 1637 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:04,800 Speaker 1: quite get there, and you always know at the end. 1638 01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:07,240 Speaker 1: Why there's nothing. I don't believe this holding his stuff? 1639 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:07,920 Speaker 3: I mean, is he right? 1640 01:11:07,960 --> 01:11:10,080 Speaker 1: I wonder if he's right. That is Usik saying I 1641 01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:11,559 Speaker 1: won't fight you in less there's a rematch. 1642 01:11:12,000 --> 01:11:15,759 Speaker 3: Yes? Is that confirmed? I mean that's what he's increasing affirmed. 1643 01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:18,400 Speaker 3: But he was the one pushing the rematch clause. 1644 01:11:18,439 --> 01:11:20,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, how much let's be fully I mean, how 1645 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 1: much should we be pushing back on that? 1646 01:11:22,880 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 3: No? Not because a fury believes it's gonna beat him, 1647 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:31,160 Speaker 3: then who cares? Just being standard practice. But that's the 1648 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:35,360 Speaker 3: problem with boxing. It's becoming too all these rematch clauses. 1649 01:11:35,880 --> 01:11:37,840 Speaker 3: So on the one hand, he's not doing anything else 1650 01:11:37,920 --> 01:11:40,240 Speaker 3: that every other b side before him hasn't tried to do. 1651 01:11:41,040 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 3: On the other hand, it's so out of hand at 1652 01:11:43,920 --> 01:11:46,680 Speaker 3: this point, it's so out of control as a practice. Yes, 1653 01:11:47,000 --> 01:11:49,240 Speaker 3: that I can understand why people are like, man, fuck 1654 01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:50,639 Speaker 3: this just fucking fight the one deal. 1655 01:11:50,720 --> 01:11:52,360 Speaker 1: But at the same time, the split he's trying to 1656 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:54,760 Speaker 1: that Fury's trying to get financially in the rematch if 1657 01:11:54,880 --> 01:11:57,479 Speaker 1: Usik has beaten him, like, Usik's not Rocky Balboa trying 1658 01:11:57,479 --> 01:12:00,799 Speaker 1: to upset Apaulo Creed like he's the unbeaten UNIF champion 1659 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:03,360 Speaker 1: after being the undisputed and champion a cruiseway. I know 1660 01:12:03,439 --> 01:12:06,160 Speaker 1: that marketing wise is not like you know, an overnight sensation, 1661 01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:08,720 Speaker 1: but like you're not talking to Joshua twice. Yeah, you're 1662 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:11,320 Speaker 1: not talking about nobody here. I mean Olympic Old Moddley. 1663 01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:14,800 Speaker 3: Like, come on, I know, bro, it's the fan in 1664 01:12:14,920 --> 01:12:17,400 Speaker 3: you that's dying slowly, slowly. 1665 01:12:17,439 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 1: The co host and me too.

He looked 1671 01:12:32,680 --> 01:12:34,760 Speaker 3: good in his last outing. Everyone said, is he the 1672 01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:36,639 Speaker 3: next big thing? Oh my, pa, pa pa. I've always 1673 01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:39,479 Speaker 3: I've said the same thing. Take your time, No need 1674 01:12:39,560 --> 01:12:42,479 Speaker 3: to rush this kid. He's young, he's with a great team, 1675 01:12:42,760 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 3: he's obviously talented. Let's match make him appropriately. This is 1676 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:49,200 Speaker 3: a step up. I think it's a fair one. I 1677 01:12:49,479 --> 01:12:50,960 Speaker 3: like this fight a lot. I like it a lot. 1678 01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:51,760 Speaker 3: Me too, Me too. 1679 01:12:51,880 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 1: I'm about this though. June third, UFC Fight Night, Middleweight 1680 01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:59,160 Speaker 1: main event. I like this one too, Brendan Allen versus 1681 01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 1: Jack Herman. But I do want to stress again main event. 1682 01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:03,600 Speaker 1: Am I being a jerk here? I mean it's not 1683 01:13:03,640 --> 01:13:05,320 Speaker 1: a bad fight for the main event. I don't know 1684 01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,280 Speaker 1: if it's like that fulfilling, but as a fight. 1685 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:09,760 Speaker 3: It's also interesting that like Jack arm Manson has now 1686 01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:12,760 Speaker 3: become a little bit of like, okay, are you really 1687 01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:13,400 Speaker 3: good at middleweight? 1688 01:13:13,479 --> 01:13:15,080 Speaker 1: Let's fight Jack and see where you're at. I mean, 1689 01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:16,599 Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good fight. I'm being an asshole, 1690 01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 1: but at the same time it gives me those feels. 1691 01:13:18,080 --> 01:13:20,200 Speaker 1: When it was Anthony Smith Ryan's Span made event, you 1692 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:24,080 Speaker 1: were like, you said, mussy, what what a what? 1693 01:13:24,240 --> 01:13:29,400 Speaker 3: Actually we thought about that and I didn't say, mussy, 1694 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:32,200 Speaker 3: that's actually interesting, lie a lie. The real ones will 1695 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:34,400 Speaker 3: find the footage. We'll find it. I would I listen 1696 01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:36,400 Speaker 3: If I'm wrong, I'll take the Elephants a right. We 1697 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:39,800 Speaker 3: do dead wrongs every Friday's. But I'm gonna say this, 1698 01:13:40,120 --> 01:13:42,720 Speaker 3: Jack Romanson, huge fight for him. He really needs a 1699 01:13:42,800 --> 01:13:45,400 Speaker 3: win over a quality name, which I consider Brendan Allen 1700 01:13:45,640 --> 01:13:48,760 Speaker 3: who ran through Andre Mooneese in his last night. I 1701 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:51,160 Speaker 3: couldn't believe that. I couldn't believe that that ran through 1702 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 3: it was competitive, but that he got the sub Oh 1703 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:56,120 Speaker 3: my god, I couldn't believe that great fight like that one. 1704 01:13:56,120 --> 01:13:58,000 Speaker 1: Okay, is her Manson Allen as a main event better 1705 01:13:58,120 --> 01:14:00,120 Speaker 1: than I versus Calvio a recent one? 1706 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a lot better. Okay, how about Derek Lewis. 1707 01:14:02,200 --> 01:14:04,280 Speaker 1: Versus abdur Rakimov in Albany at that time? 1708 01:14:04,360 --> 01:14:07,040 Speaker 3: It's better than that. A lot better. I'll take that back. 1709 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:10,599 Speaker 1: Hey, there's another Maga Medoff that might dominate mixed martial arts. 1710 01:14:10,600 --> 01:14:11,080 Speaker 3: You ready for this? 1711 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:15,519 Speaker 1: Bellator has signed Olympic silver medalist twenty eight year old Russian. 1712 01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:17,960 Speaker 3: What's the first name here? Link? 1713 01:14:18,040 --> 01:14:22,600 Speaker 1: Kotty Kaddy Mago Medoff In the statue you'll need to 1714 01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:25,120 Speaker 1: know Lucas he I can't read unless I look. 1715 01:14:25,040 --> 01:14:27,000 Speaker 3: Going to read it. Yeah, I got I'm a twenty 1716 01:14:27,000 --> 01:14:28,840 Speaker 3: eight year old Russian. It's gonna make the transition while 1717 01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:31,320 Speaker 3: still hoping to make gold. In twenty twenty four, they 1718 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:33,600 Speaker 3: said he was gonna make the featherweight division, but I 1719 01:14:33,680 --> 01:14:36,720 Speaker 3: had someone kind of hit me to this. He competed 1720 01:14:36,880 --> 01:14:40,599 Speaker 3: in the seventy four kilogram category in wrestling. I don't 1721 01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:42,720 Speaker 3: know how the hell he's gonna make featherweight. That must 1722 01:14:42,760 --> 01:14:46,080 Speaker 3: be a typo, but okay, either way, ABC, here's the deal. 1723 01:14:46,200 --> 01:14:50,120 Speaker 3: At the twenty twenty Olympic Games, he he I don't 1724 01:14:50,120 --> 01:14:52,839 Speaker 3: know if he either tech falled him, but he blanked 1725 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:57,320 Speaker 3: Kyle Dake eleven to nothing. Why is that important? Kyle Diake, folks, 1726 01:14:57,360 --> 01:15:00,639 Speaker 3: I remember watching this go through. Kyle Dak wrestled for Cornell. 1727 01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:02,920 Speaker 3: He is the only person in the history of NC 1728 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:07,000 Speaker 3: double A wrestling. Not merely to win four national championships 1729 01:15:07,040 --> 01:15:08,800 Speaker 3: all four years in college. Other ones have done that. 1730 01:15:09,400 --> 01:15:11,920 Speaker 3: He did it in a different weight class every year. 1731 01:15:12,120 --> 01:15:14,519 Speaker 3: Every year he went up another weight class and won 1732 01:15:14,640 --> 01:15:19,439 Speaker 3: the NC Double A Division one national fucking title. And 1733 01:15:19,560 --> 01:15:22,120 Speaker 3: his senior year it was against David Taylor, who also 1734 01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:25,559 Speaker 3: ended up becoming ready for this and Olympic gold medalist. 1735 01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:26,920 Speaker 3: Like that, beat up a little nickel. 1736 01:15:27,840 --> 01:15:27,960 Speaker 1: Uh. 1737 01:15:28,560 --> 01:15:30,240 Speaker 3: He beat bon nicchol A on the way, didn't David 1738 01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:32,439 Speaker 3: Taylor beat bon Nickel on? Oh? They were well, they 1739 01:15:32,479 --> 01:15:35,160 Speaker 3: both wrestled for Penn State. I don't know what thought 1740 01:15:35,160 --> 01:15:37,200 Speaker 3: in the Olympic trialsers they might have been. Yes, that's right, 1741 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,000 Speaker 3: David Taylor beat him ultimately, no my Olympics for the spot, 1742 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:41,600 Speaker 3: I think for the spot on the world team. But 1743 01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 3: either way, either way freestyle or greco in your legs 1744 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 3: freestyle freestyle. 1745 01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:46,599 Speaker 2: Uh. 1746 01:15:46,680 --> 01:15:50,960 Speaker 3: But anyway, Michael Madeoff blanked Kyle Dake eleven to nothing. 1747 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:54,720 Speaker 3: Eleven to nothing. So we're not talking about some chump. 1748 01:15:54,880 --> 01:15:59,080 Speaker 3: We're talking about a highly decorated It says here he's 1749 01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:04,320 Speaker 3: gonna still juggling his MMA career. That's interesting. Yeah, you 1750 01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 3: know how that goes I do and then one of 1751 01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:08,479 Speaker 3: them falls through and then they just go do MMA. 1752 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:10,799 Speaker 3: So we'll say, all right, well, Luke, remember Augusto Sakai. 1753 01:16:10,800 --> 01:16:13,040 Speaker 1: I remember that time we were in Miami for Floyd 1754 01:16:13,160 --> 01:16:14,960 Speaker 1: Logan and I was like, you were like trying to 1755 01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:16,120 Speaker 1: get me to close the show, and I was like, 1756 01:16:16,160 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 1: do we haven't even talked about Augusta Augusta and you 1757 01:16:19,439 --> 01:16:21,120 Speaker 1: like blow up and it's like a famous SoundBite, monk. 1758 01:16:21,360 --> 01:16:23,559 Speaker 3: So the theme of today's show is, hey, Luke, remember 1759 01:16:23,600 --> 01:16:26,040 Speaker 3: that time you did things that I found disappointing?
