Speaker 7: Luke's stream let him know he.

101
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:43,320

Speaker 2: Don't hassle the hoff please?

103
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,839
Speaker 6: So I was like muted on my stream for like

104
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:49,400
Speaker 6: fucking almost not quite, but maybe like close to ten minutes.

105
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:54,880
Speaker 2: I blame to Cantila came through before you were there.

106
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,599
Speaker 6: She does come stomping through, that is true. Well, I don't, Luke.

107
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,040
Speaker 6: What am I supposed to do about this? I I

108
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 6: have a mixing board that is not battery powered. It

109
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 6: is plugged into the PC. Nothing was ever disturbed about it.

110
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,919
Speaker 6: It just calnked out in the middle of the broadcast

111
00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:10,840
Speaker 6: and I didn't see it until I didn't see the

112
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 6: levels moving, and that's when it was.

113
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:15,720
Speaker 1: How am I supposed to you know what? I mean?

114
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:18,599
Speaker 6: Like everything was because, for example, my camera has shut

115
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,200
Speaker 6: off at various times because I forgot to plug it in.

116
00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: Nothing was unplugged. What am I supposed to do about that? Ship?

117
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 8: Bro?

118
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:26,120
Speaker 7: I mean, there's nothing you can technically do about it

119
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 7: except maybe keep an eye on the mixer or see

120
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,359
Speaker 7: that the lights right now? I have to do the

121
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 7: other thing, Luke, is keep an eye on your live

122
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 7: chat because everyone was paying money to tell you were

123
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 7: commuted by the ten minutes.

124
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,920
Speaker 2: There are times I've received d ms in the moment

125
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 2: when you're in, when you're in like a Thursday live chat,

126
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 2: people like you. Just please tell Luke this one thing

127
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:44,760
Speaker 2: for me. Please. You know, you know.

128
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:46,599
Speaker 1: I'm sorry to everyone.

129
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 6: But the good news is it was only between the

130
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,440
Speaker 6: comine and the main so it didn't actually fuck up

131
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 6: the broadcast that bad.

132
00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 1: But sorry about.

133
00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 2: That problem, No problem at all. Anything else you want

134
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 2: to talk about, Luke before we get into the meat

135
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 2: of this show. Maybe the end of the road for

Speaker 6: objects out of legos, and it sounds kind of silly,

00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,719
Speaker 6: like how good could it be? Yeah, it's it's way

00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 6: to the Lakers. I mean, I don't really care that much.

161
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:04,720
Speaker 6: I just can't fucking believe Dallas did that.

162
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 2: That was one of the biggest sports stories that wasn't

163
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,279
Speaker 2: like arrest or death related in a long time, right,

164
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 2: you know, like that was like, holy crab, all right,

165
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: that is all that we're gonna get into the meat

166
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,400
Speaker 2: of this show, though, right, bringin now and let's go

167
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: topic number one. We all saw it Saturday afternoon in Riod.

168
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 2: It was a UFC Fight Night card, but even bigger

169
00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,559
Speaker 2: it was the return of Israel out of Sonya, looking

170
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,600
Speaker 2: to put the recent pass behind him against the rising

171
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 2: nas Ordine Imovov. But in the end a stunning second

172
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:37,080
Speaker 2: round TKO win for Imovov despite a strong start for Izzy.

173
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,960
Speaker 2: So Luke, we gotta be blunt, we gotta be real,

174
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 2: we gotta be honest. Four losses in his last five fights,

175
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 2: three of them by stoppage. Is he's thirty five years

176
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,480
Speaker 2: old and all of these defeats of course, or since

177
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: twenty twenty two, is it time for one of the

178
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,000
Speaker 2: greatest champions in this sports history to walk away from

179
00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 2: him and may for good?

180
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: I think that it is. Yeah, Wow, I think that

181
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: it is.

182
00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 2: We're not talking about downgrading your match making, We're not

183
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 2: talking about take a year off. We're saying this could

184
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 2: be the end right here.

185
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 6: So what I would say to that is a couple

186
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:10,200
Speaker 6: of things. You asked a question. Is now a good

187
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 6: time to close it?

188
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 1: Now?

189
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 6: Is a good time to close it? Whether or not

190
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 6: he will remain something different. Whether or not they agree

191
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 6: is something different. Also, could you imagine a scenario where

192
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 6: to the point you just raised, they downgrade the matchmaking

193
00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,200
Speaker 6: he pulls some kind of Jim Miller ish scenario. Yes,

194
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,840
Speaker 6: of course you don't have to retire in that case.

195
00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 6: It's not a claim that he can never win fights again.

196
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:33,040
Speaker 6: I hope people understand that. But I really want folks

197
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 6: to take a look. They note that he's lost four

198
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,320
Speaker 6: of his last five, and then three of those via stoppage,

199
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 6: two in a row via stoppage, but I really want

200
00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 6: to focus in on the last three. He beats Poeton,

201
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 6: which was it appears to be the high water mark

202
00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:46,000
Speaker 6: of his career.

203
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,440
Speaker 2: That's one of the best singular victories in like in

204
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:51,480
Speaker 2: terms of this, what was at stake? He had just

205
00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 2: been stopped before, but it may have been him pouring

206
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 2: out the joke.

207
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,920
Speaker 1: I think it was him pouring out the jug because

208
00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:58,839
Speaker 1: then he loses to strictly and granted he was somewhat

209
00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: compromised for it, but it was pretty thorough. But here's

210
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: the point. I want to make.

211
00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,400
Speaker 6: You lose a five round decision to Strickland in September

212
00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 6: of twenty twenty three, then in August of twenty twenty four,

213
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:11,200
Speaker 6: you get stopped in the fourth round, and then here

214
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 6: against Nessardini Mavo, if you get stopped via strikes in

215
00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 6: the second round, one of the tailtale signs that something

216
00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 6: is headed very much in the wrong direction. To the

217
00:09:21,840 --> 00:09:25,880
Speaker 6: point or saying out loud, maybe I'm not saying intervention

218
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:29,400
Speaker 6: from teammates is needed, but rather a personal sense of

219
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:34,360
Speaker 6: what's actually happening. Inventoring in your circumstances is when you're

220
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 6: an elite fighter and there is no other way to

221
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 6: describe isy an elite fighter, and you're losing consecutive bouts,

222
00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,199
Speaker 6: that's not necessarily a big deal. Sure, But if you're

223
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,480
Speaker 6: thirty five, you've never lost three in a row before,

224
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 6: and each time it is getting quicker, and each time

225
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 6: it is getting worse. You are headed to a place

226
00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 6: where you are going to risk not merely losing, but

227
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 6: severe beatings that could be in your way.

228
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,760
Speaker 2: The diminishing returns become dramatic.

229
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: This is this is where this train is headed.

230
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:09,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, so I'm not saying the next fight, no matter

231
00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:11,079
Speaker 6: who it is, he's gonna lose and lose in the

232
00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 6: first round.

233
00:10:11,640 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 1: It's really not that claim.

234
00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:16,079
Speaker 6: But the claim is between you have three fights dating

235
00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 6: back to September of twenty twenty three that all speak

236
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:24,040
Speaker 6: to a and inexorable decline and also speak to the

237
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 6: direction this subway train is moving. It is moving to

238
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,480
Speaker 6: a place and this is what I want to avoid BC.

239
00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:34,480
Speaker 6: It is moving to a place where he is going

240
00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:39,200
Speaker 6: to risk getting absolutely walloped in the process, affecting his

241
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 6: quality of life, affecting I mean, less to his legacy,

242
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 6: but really personal damage to himself. That is absolutely unnecessary,

243
00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,520
Speaker 6: especially since he's now at this point no longer really

244
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 6: in relevant conversations about getting back to a title place

245
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 6: to meaningfully add to the legacy.

246
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 2: And it's crazy because if he would have won this fight,

247
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:01,240
Speaker 2: I mean, you could have literally put him back in

248
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 2: there against Poton it light heavyweight for the title. And

249
00:11:03,200 --> 00:11:05,800
Speaker 2: now we have the exact opposite conversation. And it is

250
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 2: because of those three fights you mentioned it was lifeless

251
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 2: against Strickland. Maybe we wrote that off as how does

252
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,680
Speaker 2: he get up for that fight after he got up

253
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 2: for the Poton one. But to see the last two

254
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 2: fights DDP. In this one where he looks really good,

255
00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 2: he looks like the guy of old, and then when

256
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 2: it's overlooked. It's over like that. Remember DDP was like that.

257
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 2: It went from oh he's on the ground, Oh he's

258
00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 2: tapped out, same thing here, one big shot. I think

259
00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 2: what makes us even worse is this was the training

260
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: camp that I got the feeling from following his prefight

261
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 2: stuff that there was no stone left unturned.

262
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,240
Speaker 1: They went back to the basics, you.

263
00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,120
Speaker 2: Know, got off social media like that kind of stuff,

264
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,640
Speaker 2: that completely sequestered himself. And when all and he came

265
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,360
Speaker 2: in in incredible shape, you saw some variety to his

266
00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:48,280
Speaker 2: striking and switching stances that you're like, Okay, they're trying,

267
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 2: you know, when you go to that level, and then

268
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 2: seemingly the first time you take a big strike, which

269
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,079
Speaker 2: he did, fight was over. That's a huge sign. But

270
00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 2: I do want to say he was poked in the

271
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: eye about ten seconds before the stoppage, and he made

272
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:02,600
Speaker 2: the decision, which in hindsight seems to be a bad one,

273
00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 2: to not take time. He wanted to do the warrior

274
00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,800
Speaker 2: thing and go no, I'm fine, let's keep fighting, kind

275
00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,520
Speaker 2: of like what Poeton did to Jamal Hill, and then

276
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,920
Speaker 2: he finished him. Only it was Izzy that got finished

277
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,600
Speaker 2: right after. It does that play a role in this

278
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,559
Speaker 2: at all, or obviously the totality of the run is

279
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 2: he's on. We have to have these tough conversations right now.

280
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:20,880
Speaker 2: But do you think that right hand that land did

281
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 2: had something to do with compromise vision off of coming

282
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 2: back too quick from an eyebook.

283
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 6: All of these things have some kind of role to play.

284
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:37,000
Speaker 6: I'm less convinced that it explains exactly what happened. And also,

285
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 6: if you're in the middle of a fight and there

286
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 6: is some video of Izzy saying he didn't want to

287
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 6: let the guy take the break because he didn't.

288
00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:44,960
Speaker 1: Want to catch his wind fair enough.

289
00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 6: He wants to keep a high pace, and you saw

290
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:49,240
Speaker 6: that from the first round he was coming out aggressive,

291
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 6: which I thought was a good idea. If you stuck

292
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:54,760
Speaker 6: to that strategy and you elected to make that call

293
00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:56,079
Speaker 6: in the middle of the fight, then you accept the

294
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:58,080
Speaker 6: consequences of it. So in a sense, I'm not saying

295
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,600
Speaker 6: it's irrelevant, but it's not the defining factor of how

296
00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,640
Speaker 6: you understand this contest, not to me. To me, this

297
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 6: is a guy BC who again more than one hundred

298
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 6: profights tons of damage already, he's slowing down all natural

299
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 6: things that happened at the stage of a career. But

300
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 6: more to the point, we actually have a bit of

301
00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 6: a moment to reflect on the kind of striking that

302
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 6: he has in later subsequent fights in his career. The

303
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 6: Cannoneer or the second Whitaker, the Vittori fight a lot

304
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,439
Speaker 6: of his striking. Again, early on this is not the case,

305
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,599
Speaker 6: but in the latter portion of his championship run he

306
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:34,800
Speaker 6: had the kind of striking to essentially diffuse bombs and

307
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:36,880
Speaker 6: manage rounds less to.

308
00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: Get over on a guy.

309
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 6: And as the fighters get younger, as he gets older,

310
00:13:41,240 --> 00:13:43,760
Speaker 6: and they get better because they have better best practices

311
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 6: and they understand things that the previous generation did not.

312
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,400
Speaker 6: You can't get by being older and managing rounds and

313
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,920
Speaker 6: then diffusing bombs. You actually have to lay bombs on

314
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 6: these other guys, and that of course declines as you

315
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,760
Speaker 6: get older. Again, these are all natural things. It's not

316
00:13:57,840 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 6: an insult.

317
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,120
Speaker 2: But he didn't. He didn't evolve to a certain degree

318
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 2: he is.

319
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 1: The evolution.

320
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 2: Is nasty in this fight.

321
00:14:06,080 --> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 1: This is just what everyone gets wrong about. Is he is?

322
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:08,679
Speaker 9: He is?

323
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 6: The evolution is he helped raise the level of striking,

324
00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 6: not merely in that division, but overall in the sport.

325
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 1: But that's the problem.

326
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 6: You made every well, I mean again, so I'm not

327
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 6: saying you made everyone better in that like went one

328
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 6: by one, but the sport got better by virtue of

329
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 6: him and his team's participation in the way in which

330
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:26,440
Speaker 6: they focused on certain elements of striking that we're here

331
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 6: too for not really all that incorporated. So the point

332
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,760
Speaker 6: I'm trying to make is if everyone is now getting

333
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 6: younger and they already know all of your trade secrets,

334
00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,160
Speaker 6: and again there's already a shit ton of tape on

335
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 6: the guy, and the best you can hope for is

336
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 6: managing and diffusing. These are not circumstances that are going

337
00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,320
Speaker 6: to lead to consciousness to yes through twenty five minutes.

338
00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,160
Speaker 2: And when you're seeing, like we said, these two big

339
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,320
Speaker 2: fights end as soon as he's in trouble, it's over,

340
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 2: that's a huge sign. I didn't have any problem with

341
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 2: the stoppage. I mean, he got lit up by.

342
00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,240
Speaker 6: I would like to ask a lot of Luke about that. Look,

343
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 6: here's my read on that stoppage a little early, But

344
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 6: I don't have a.

345
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:05,480
Speaker 1: Problem with it.

346
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:08,840
Speaker 7: I told BC when I first saw it in real time,

347
00:15:09,160 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 7: I was kind of complaining. I thought it was early,

348
00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:14,120
Speaker 7: but on replay, he was definitely out with those first

349
00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 7: two shots. It's just the timing in which they chose

350
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,080
Speaker 7: to stop it after that seemed a little week is that.

351
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,160
Speaker 2: But that left hand when he was down, that's enough.

352
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:23,120
Speaker 1: That's enough. So when he hit him with the right

353
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: that was bad.

354
00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:25,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, the left one was really bad because then he

355
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 6: bellies out, he goes like that, and then you could

356
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,040
Speaker 6: see him trying to get to his base a little bit,

357
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 6: and then he's getting bombed on and that's when Goddard

358
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 6: stopped it. But then as soon as Goddard stopped it,

359
00:15:35,920 --> 00:15:38,080
Speaker 6: he like had his knees under him. You know, it

360
00:15:38,120 --> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 6: was a bit of a weird thing. But I mean,

361
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 6: this is Mma. What do you want me to say?

362
00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:43,720
Speaker 10: It is?

363
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 2: It is? So Look, it was a shocking result. It

364
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 2: was shocking to see that. I happened to be driving

365
00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 2: to T Mobile Arena, sitting behind Moro and Brian Custer,

366
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 2: who were watching on a feed that was ten seconds

367
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:55,720
Speaker 2: say of the mind. So I heard the reaction and

368
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:57,240
Speaker 2: then I looked down on the phone and kind of

369
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 2: waited for it to happen. It brought a lot of reactions.

370
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:03,080
Speaker 2: In fact, it fueled YouTube content for Izzy. I'm surprised

371
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 2: he did this, but he sat down and rewatched it

372
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 2: shortly afterwards. And here's the result of his reaction, chopping

373
00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 2: the legs.

374
00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:13,160
Speaker 5: Early on around to you.

375
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 1: Because he already just wrested from the thing.

376
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 9: Oh say, stray game, stay game.

377
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:43,520
Speaker 2: Fuck. I mean, that's that's all about spits. I do

378
00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: give Easy credit for doing that, but there's not much more.

379
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 2: There's not much else else you can say right now.

380
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:49,800
Speaker 2: I mean, it is what it is of lad and

381
00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,800
Speaker 2: that's his reaction. Fuck, you know, like all that, But

382
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:55,520
Speaker 2: did you see Mighty Mouse. Mighty Mouse seemed to take

383
00:16:55,520 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 2: this harder than everyone.

384
00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 1: I did not see it. Let's watch this reaction.

385
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:01,680
Speaker 5: Everybody, kick.

386
00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 11: A fuck, get up, get up there. Fuck fuck god.

387
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 7: Damn it.

388
00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:15,679
Speaker 2: Money on you just just love the.

389
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 11: Goddamn it. Fuck god, damn it.

390
00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:37,199
Speaker 2: Man. Oh h did you.

391
00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 11: Mass respect for Izzy man to go over there and

392
00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 11: shake the hands? Man shake the hand of the man

393
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:48,000
Speaker 11: who just knocked him out. Fuck man, Now I got

394
00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:48,880
Speaker 11: a fucking headache.

395
00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:54,920
Speaker 1: Oh Luca, I don't, I don't.

396
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,719
Speaker 2: I mean, I just think I don't think you did

397
00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,359
Speaker 2: the out oft the the sorry the puah wee wave reaction.

398
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:00,240
Speaker 2: Were you live this?

399
00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: I had a very muted readers.

400
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,560
Speaker 2: You're honest here as a fan and you respect Izzy

401
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 2: and he's he's you've been a champion of what he's accomplished.

402
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:08,680
Speaker 2: It was hard to watch.

403
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,480
Speaker 1: I yes, but yes and no, like.

404
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 6: Again, I noticed that meaning where I'm like, I'm not

405
00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 6: playing with the toys anymore. But it's like, dude, I'm

406
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,600
Speaker 6: When we talked on Friday, the best I could say

407
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 6: was I didn't know what was gonna happen. Yes, and

408
00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 6: then when you see what actually happens, it confirmed some

409
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,440
Speaker 6: of the more worrying suspicions that I had had, which

410
00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:32,199
Speaker 6: was he has reached the inexorable decline stage of his

411
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,800
Speaker 6: elite career. And the reality is, dude, if you're this

412
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:37,399
Speaker 6: kind of a fighter and you're in this kind of

413
00:18:37,440 --> 00:18:39,240
Speaker 6: a stage, the best thing to do is, from what

414
00:18:39,280 --> 00:18:41,760
Speaker 6: I've seen over the course of time, it's just to

415
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:42,600
Speaker 6: stop the bleeding.

416
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:44,440
Speaker 1: And I I.

417
00:18:43,840 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 2: And even if even if that means eighteen months from

418
00:18:46,160 --> 00:18:48,119
Speaker 2: now you get the itch again, yeah, that's fine, but

419
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 2: it is just got sleep.

420
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,000
Speaker 6: He comes back in here and have a fun two

421
00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:53,640
Speaker 6: zero five five, fine, fine, whatever, but I just want

422
00:18:53,680 --> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 6: to point out, like having watched Habib, having watched GSP

423
00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 6: cut out before this part happens, there's no way to

424
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 6: stop this other than to just call the whole thing

425
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 6: off because this is where this is where we are now,

426
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 6: We are in the stage where harm is going to

427
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 6: be done to him routinely.

428
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 1: I don't have great appetite for this. I don't.

429
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,159
Speaker 6: We got to see dude, we got to see the

430
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 6: very best of him. Yes, we are no longer there.

431
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 6: In fact, we're pretty far from it. What is the

432
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:26,679
Speaker 6: attachment at this point? Let him return him, don't take.

433
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:29,679
Speaker 1: Care of don't but like, let him take care of

434
00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 1: his fucking.

435
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:32,160
Speaker 2: Health, Like I mean, if he was freed, probably Box Jake.

436
00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:33,159
Speaker 1: Let me just say that.

437
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 6: Let me ask you the too this PC, because I

438
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 6: know we have been, you know, closer to fan experiences

439
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:41,679
Speaker 6: in our life than we are these days. But I

440
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,920
Speaker 6: am I gotta tell you, like when I see fans

441
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,920
Speaker 6: hold on to a guy and they're just getting beat

442
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:47,720
Speaker 6: and then beat and then beat, and like, oh, this

443
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 6: really depresses me. I've lived that, so I completely understand it.

444
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:53,679
Speaker 6: But I'm definitely now in a place where that's not

445
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:54,080
Speaker 6: the case.

446
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 1: Anymore.

447
00:19:55,160 --> 00:19:58,119
Speaker 6: I'm now in a place where I'm like, I like it.

448
00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 6: I like it when they call it off early, like

449
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,960
Speaker 6: it when they get out early. It actually makes me

450
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:05,879
Speaker 6: feel much better. And I don't I have who pines

451
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:09,360
Speaker 6: to see legends get whooped.

452
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 2: The PF for that GFL does. To be fair, you

453
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 2: did mention GSP. He also GSP was in the crowd

454
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 2: and even though it was a Frenchman, the adopted Frenchman

455
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 2: and Imovov getting the win. Here's GSP's reaction and you

456
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:26,359
Speaker 2: can see it, Luke on his face. It's hard, you know.

457
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 2: I mean, we have so much respect for Izzy.

458
00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,960
Speaker 6: You saw DJ he dressed like a blackjack dealer in

459
00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:31,960
Speaker 6: nineteen seventy three.

460
00:20:32,000 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 2: Hey, he looks like Leezer shoot Larrier right there. I

461
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 2: love that Shan.

462
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 6: No one has put their collar outside of their jacket,

463
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 6: honestly since nineteen ninety four.

464
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 2: That clip goes on and it's just a sad face

465
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 2: from GSP. All Right, we've said a lot about his

466
00:20:43,040 --> 00:20:46,080
Speaker 2: z Twenty two minutes into the show, how about we

467
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 2: talk about Nas Sardine Imovov four consecutive wins in the

468
00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 2: middleweight division, all against good names, including the Leeds, Brendan

469
00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 2: Allen and now stoppages of Jared Cannoneer and former champion

470
00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,600
Speaker 2: out Asania Luke. How big of a win because if

471
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,840
Speaker 2: you would have told me in advance, is he's gonna

472
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 2: lose and it might be the end of his career.

473
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 2: I'm not thinking second round tkall off of a two

474
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,960
Speaker 2: punch clean combination. This was shockingly big for a guy

475
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:13,960
Speaker 2: that doesn't puck trash, you know, speaks a different language,

476
00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:16,880
Speaker 2: doesn't have a high profile, but move off can fight.

477
00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:18,399
Speaker 2: How big of a win is this?

478
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 6: I think we have to be a little bit careful

479
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 6: about assigning huge value to it. It's definitely very good.

480
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:31,800
Speaker 6: It is definitely extremely helpful in terms of what it

481
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 6: does for his stock standing all time place. As we

482
00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:38,120
Speaker 6: indicated the run he's on more recently with these four

483
00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 6: wins in a row, and they're getting faster and faster,

484
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,440
Speaker 6: by the way. To speak of that, we just talked

485
00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 6: about how in the case of is he's wins, excuse me,

486
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:47,760
Speaker 6: is he's losses, they're happening quicker and quicker. How about

487
00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:52,160
Speaker 6: this BC he decisions Roman deledze Imovov, does he TKO's

488
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 6: Jared Kennoneer in the fourth, he goes to a three

489
00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 6: round decision with Brendan Allen and now two five four

490
00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,639
Speaker 6: three two one, it gets faster and fast and fester

491
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 6: for him as he ascends the latter. This is exactly

492
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 6: what somebody at twenty eight years old who is now

493
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,040
Speaker 6: entering their physical prime, if they're gonna be elite and

494
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 6: they want to contend for a title, it has to

495
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 6: look like this. So on that sense and the on

496
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 6: that level, I absolutely give him an enormous amount of credit.

497
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:22,119
Speaker 6: He's legit. He's at worst number four in this division

498
00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:23,919
Speaker 6: as far as I can tell, right because it's going

499
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,400
Speaker 6: to be DDP, Sean Hamzat and him.

500
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 1: Those are the guys now, it's those four.

501
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 2: DDP and Sean are going to fight for a second

502
00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,439
Speaker 2: time on Saturday. Dana already said Chamaiav's got next, more

503
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,520
Speaker 2: or less, I think he said it publicly. So would

504
00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: Imovov need another big win over a top five games.

505
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:40,280
Speaker 6: I absolutely think he needs another top win over another

506
00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,320
Speaker 6: top guy. And the reason why I say that is

507
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 6: because twofold one, I don't think the loss is fluky.

508
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 6: I don't think that, but this is not easy from

509
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 6: two three years ago, and so he is going to

510
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 6: get caught a lot more easily than he once did.

511
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,320
Speaker 6: And the second thing I'm going to say is he

512
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 6: lost the first round. Imovov did that doesn't that's not

513
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,280
Speaker 6: like some scathing indictment, but is he did look pretty

514
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:06,959
Speaker 6: good and for a moment there, Imovov looked slightly bewildered.

515
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,639
Speaker 6: What I would like to see is a fight against

516
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,919
Speaker 6: one more top guy, and again, if it ends up

517
00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 6: in thirty seconds, what can you do. But I would

518
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 6: argue engineer matchmaking so that you can maybe trust that

519
00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:23,879
Speaker 6: whoever Imovov fights will push him, give you a decent

520
00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,840
Speaker 6: chance anyway of pushing him into later rounds, so you

521
00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:28,600
Speaker 6: can really see what it looks like when he has

522
00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 6: to problem solve over the course of time. That's what

523
00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:33,600
Speaker 6: I would hope to see is that Robert Whittaker. Could

524
00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:34,680
Speaker 6: he get back out in time?

525
00:23:34,800 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 2: I don't know that that's an interesting offering.

526
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:38,960
Speaker 6: A name that people brought up as well. And I

527
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:40,800
Speaker 6: would love to get bowling on Luke on this one.

528
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:45,199
Speaker 6: What do you think about now, Serdine Imovov taking on

529
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 6: Kyo Bohalio.

530
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,480
Speaker 7: I like that, but that's also like two surging prospects.

531
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:52,879
Speaker 7: I almost feel like they should have done. Sorry, I

532
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,439
Speaker 7: feel like they should have done that instead of this

533
00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 7: easy fight right now.

534
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:57,679
Speaker 2: Well, Amovov's currently number five. I don't know if these

535
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,360
Speaker 2: UFC ringers. Okay to carrat.

536
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 1: Four, Yeah, remember his whole jaw got fucked up.

537
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,120
Speaker 2: Kyo is six, Victoria at seven. And then you go Cannon,

538
00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:08,840
Speaker 2: Aaron Allen who already Callan Allen, and Delitze who he's

539
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 2: already beaten, and then Paula Costa and Fluffy Ornandez you

540
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:16,200
Speaker 2: wouldn't do, you wouldn't do, Bonickel, No, he's well beyond

541
00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,480
Speaker 2: this or kyohala.

542
00:24:17,560 --> 00:24:21,120
Speaker 7: I think Fluffy's fighting Brendan Allen. I think like next month.

543
00:24:21,240 --> 00:24:23,159
Speaker 7: Yeah he if he wins a dark horse, Yeah, I

544
00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:23,439
Speaker 7: like that.

545
00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:23,879
Speaker 1: I like that.

546
00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 2: That's it. That's a good point. That would be a

547
00:24:25,400 --> 00:24:27,720
Speaker 2: good matchup if he wins to streaking guys, right.

548
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 6: But somebody like that, somebody Whittaker you would imagine, could

549
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 6: probably a little bit older, but can probably push him. Well, Hollio,

550
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 6: you definitely would imagine can push him, and certainly I

551
00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 6: would also argue Fluffy can push him as well. That's

552
00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 6: what we need to see. But if he answers that,

553
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:42,760
Speaker 6: you got to give him a title shot. I mean,

554
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:44,920
Speaker 6: that's just that, that's just simply where he is at

555
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:48,320
Speaker 6: this place. So again, twenty eight years old, that's when

556
00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 6: the prime starts.

557
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 1: And that's what he did on Saturday. Pretty impressive.

558
00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:54,440
Speaker 2: It's weird because even though is he was knocked out,

559
00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:56,399
Speaker 2: he was kind of right back up afterwards, and it

560
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 2: looked like, oh crap, it happened and it's over. It

561
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 2: wasn't like he was, you know, out for a long

562
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:03,199
Speaker 2: time and we were worried about him. But happens that

563
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:04,000
Speaker 2: quickly on the sport.

564
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 6: May I make a point it? May I make a

565
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,600
Speaker 6: point if I can. I had tweeted over the weekend

566
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:14,080
Speaker 6: that Izzy is inarguably the second best middleweight of all time,

567
00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,439
Speaker 6: and there's definitely a few reasons why you can say that.

568
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 6: But I would actually like to read a list of

569
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:20,960
Speaker 6: fighters and BC, I would love for you to tell

570
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 6: me what they all have in common.

571
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:26,720
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm only going to read to you fifteen names.

572
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:30,720
Speaker 2: I guess flat Earth, it'd be a lot more than fifteen.

573
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 6: Okay, all right, Tito Ortiz, John Jones, Daniel Cormier, Izzy Anderson, Silva,

574
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 6: Gsp Kamara, Usman Habib Jose, Aldo, Volk, Dominic, Cruz, DJ

575
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,359
Speaker 6: and then on the women's side, Rousey, Nunez and Chevchenko.

576
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 1: Is there any way to figure out?

577
00:25:48,200 --> 00:25:50,439
Speaker 6: Mean, they're all UFC champions, of course, but beyond that,

578
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 6: what do they have in common?

579
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 1: Because what the list I just read you, they're the

580
00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 1: only fifteen in UFC history who have this.

581
00:25:58,359 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 2: I was gonna say win streak, but that doesn't fit

582
00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 2: that perfectly certain level of title defenses.

583
00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:07,080
Speaker 6: No, although there probably will be some correlation, it's not

584
00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:09,200
Speaker 6: the one that I'm making. The answer is, these are

585
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:13,640
Speaker 6: the only fighters whose championship reign lasted a thousand days

586
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,879
Speaker 6: or more. It's the only ones, and there's only really

587
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 6: three of them who went over two thousand. It was

588
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,880
Speaker 6: excuse me, four of them that went over two thousand

589
00:26:23,359 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 6: dj Aldo, but if you have to count his second reign,

590
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,439
Speaker 6: so you can skip that one. But DJ, GSP and

591
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:31,159
Speaker 6: Anderson Silvera they're the only ones who went over two.

592
00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 6: Now you might be asking who is left off of

593
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 6: that list? Great question. The answer is this, consider some

594
00:26:36,640 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 6: of these names who are around the nine hundred mark,

595
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:44,560
Speaker 6: Max Holloway, Tyron Woodley, Pat Millitic, Matt Hughes, is over

596
00:26:44,600 --> 00:26:46,159
Speaker 6: a thousand if you count both of his reigns, but

597
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:46,919
Speaker 6: he doesn't have a single one.

598
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 2: That's John Jones is probably over three thousand if.

599
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,320
Speaker 6: John Jones, John Jones only is over two if you

600
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,240
Speaker 6: count both title ranks, but he's not over three.

601
00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,200
Speaker 1: And then Yo Wanna and Jaychick is only at nine hundred.

602
00:26:56,920 --> 00:27:00,160
Speaker 1: Understand the level of what we are talking about out

603
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,280
Speaker 1: here is he is in that club. I had people

604
00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,959
Speaker 1: trying to suggest on the timeline that Chris Widman deserves

605
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,679
Speaker 1: as shot as number two. That is only true if

606
00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:10,480
Speaker 1: you've been hitting the head with a fucking hamm.

607
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:12,560
Speaker 2: Okay, but it's not that. Yeah, we did during the

608
00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 2: pandemic at CBS Sports we did a division by division

609
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:18,080
Speaker 2: all time ranking and I remember at that point we

610
00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 2: had Wideman number two, and it was a little surprising

611
00:27:20,119 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 2: for me. But when he went over the history, this

612
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 2: absolute peak, that stretch of winds are.

613
00:27:24,680 --> 00:27:27,040
Speaker 1: Very impressive and a very good chance.

614
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 2: So would you put him at three?

615
00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:29,359
Speaker 1: I'd probably put him at three.

616
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, it wouldn't be min A, wouldn't be

617
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 6: Bousta Monte, it wouldn't be rock holed. He would probably

618
00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,359
Speaker 6: be He'd be a three. But to me, it's a

619
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,959
Speaker 6: something of a distant three. And the reason why is

620
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 6: it's not every title defense that is he has is

621
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 6: beyond reproach. The Uel Romero one was not super authoritative.

622
00:27:45,680 --> 00:27:48,360
Speaker 6: But two things that would say. One, here's his three

623
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 6: title defenses for Chris Widman Anderson Silva breaking his leg.

624
00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,120
Speaker 6: That's not his fault, but it just doesn't mean much.

625
00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 6: That's the first thing i'd say. Second of all, it

626
00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:58,199
Speaker 6: was the Leota Michida win. That's a pretty good one.

627
00:27:58,359 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 2: Damn good win.

628
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:00,520
Speaker 1: That was okay, But.

629
00:28:00,440 --> 00:28:02,520
Speaker 6: That's also Bacheeta who got washed out of two of five,

630
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 6: cut weight to one NY five and only got it off.

631
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:06,840
Speaker 1: Of two wins. True, but no, no, it's a good win.

632
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:08,440
Speaker 6: It's a good win of all the wins he's got

633
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:11,240
Speaker 6: that's in his title defenses, that's the best one. And

634
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 6: then Vitor belfour, fresh off of TRT looking like he

635
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,159
Speaker 6: had been a deflated balloon.

636
00:28:17,280 --> 00:28:18,720
Speaker 1: He had absolutely nothing.

637
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 6: This is better than five consecutive title defenses, which by

638
00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,120
Speaker 6: the way, no other middleweight even has four. And he's

639
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,159
Speaker 6: got besides Silva, and he's got five. People want you

640
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:32,719
Speaker 6: to imagine that you can like magic Eye and then

641
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,000
Speaker 6: you can squint and you can see a case for Wimen.

642
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:40,560
Speaker 1: You cannot. You cannot. There has been pervasive, pervasive.

643
00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:43,000
Speaker 6: Denial about how good is he has been since he

644
00:28:43,040 --> 00:28:45,200
Speaker 6: got to the UFC and what he's done since he's

645
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 6: been here. He's the second best middleweight of all time.

646
00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:50,640
Speaker 6: It's not up for debate. I am sorry to be

647
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:52,120
Speaker 6: the one to tell you that, but it is in

648
00:28:52,160 --> 00:28:52,640
Speaker 6: fact true.

649
00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 2: All Right, all you haters out there, Luke has spoken.

650
00:28:56,160 --> 00:28:58,240
Speaker 1: Take that bitch is I mean, he's in the most

651
00:28:58,240 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: elite clubs that exist for or title dominant.

652
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,160
Speaker 2: Do you think if is he doesn't fight again in

653
00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 2: the UFC. I mean, it's always going to be hard

654
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 2: if you still have fights under contract. Look at GSP

655
00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 2: couldn't even get out of his deal.

656
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 1: You know, in the recent years of trying.

657
00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,200
Speaker 2: Some type of idea, Do we ever see him again

658
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:15,280
Speaker 2: in combat in any form?

659
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 6: My hunch is that is he's not going to retire

660
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,920
Speaker 6: off of this, sure, but I do think he realizes

661
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 6: now that the end is probably much closer than he expected,

662
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 6: and he's probably trying to manage whatever time he has left.

663
00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:26,600
Speaker 1: I think he'll fight again.

664
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,840
Speaker 2: I hope if they go to a USC Africa card.

665
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:30,080
Speaker 2: At some point he's on that card.

666
00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean people say UFC Africa, that's a continent.

667
00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 6: I mean we're like, no, I'm well aware of that.

668
00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:37,800
Speaker 6: Yeah I know, but like, uh, I mean they're all

669
00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:39,040
Speaker 6: like radically different parts.

670
00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 1: Like yeah, there's more than one country in Africa. Yeah,

671
00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:41,600
Speaker 1: I know.

672
00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,000
Speaker 6: But it's like, oh, we're gonna go like we have

673
00:29:43,040 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 6: a we have a guy from Croatia. Oh, we're gonna

674
00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,360
Speaker 6: do UFC Europe in Portugal.

675
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:51,560
Speaker 2: It's like, okay, it's still the unconquered territory.

676
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, it would be certainly what listen, it would be

677
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,000
Speaker 6: great to have them there. I'm simply saying we have

678
00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:56,720
Speaker 6: to be a little more focused on ring Francis back for

679
00:29:56,880 --> 00:30:00,640
Speaker 6: too Francis. They're not I mean, dude, they will sooner

680
00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,760
Speaker 6: hold on an event on Mars before they fucking have

681
00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:05,280
Speaker 6: him back. But in any case, I do think he'll

682
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,960
Speaker 6: fight again. I just don't know what that's all gonna

683
00:30:08,960 --> 00:30:10,080
Speaker 6: look like. And I hope for the best.

684
00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:11,720
Speaker 2: Me too, me too. It was tough to see that,

685
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,240
Speaker 2: but big win for Imavov. We'll see where he goes next.

686
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 2: Let's go to topic number two, and it's your UFC

687
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 2: riot undercard, in particular that cole main event, it was

688
00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 2: Michael Venampage moving up from welterweight for what he called

689
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,280
Speaker 2: the one off, although it seems like that story might

690
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:28,480
Speaker 2: have changed after he scores a fairly wide unanimous decision

691
00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:32,120
Speaker 2: over Red Hot Chara Bullet Magametov two thirty to twenty

692
00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,400
Speaker 2: seven's one judge giving Charbullet the third round. So, Luke

693
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 2: Charle Bullet's performance does it say more about this being

694
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 2: a tough style matchup for him? Are the realities of

695
00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 2: his now now disclosed medical conditions more of the reason.

696
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 2: But either way, how much did this victory from MVP deflate,

697
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:55,960
Speaker 2: if not outright pop, the hype of Chari Bullet coming

698
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:56,680
Speaker 2: into this matchup?

699
00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 6: I mean I went into the Petrosian telling everybody on

700
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 6: this show, and you remember me saying this, that I

701
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:04,600
Speaker 6: was not sold on him. Sure, and then against Petrosian

702
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 6: he turns in like one of the most amazing sensational

703
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:11,200
Speaker 6: KOs certainly that division's history. But really in MMA, like

704
00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,760
Speaker 6: the double spinning backfist, that's crazy, right, that's amazing.

705
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:15,840
Speaker 1: He's obviously quite good.

706
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 6: I am as always willing to believe that the illness

707
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:23,440
Speaker 6: he is describing is not manufactured and absolutely played.

708
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:27,560
Speaker 2: We have the ig post if we can, Okay, Luke uh,

709
00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 2: he says, the pirate goes to the harbor.

710
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 1: Okay, the pirate gimmick army tease. There will be gold

711
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 1: in them Haralds.

712
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,280
Speaker 2: But I'll be back. I knew all the risks coming

713
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 2: out in such a nightmare state of health and with

714
00:31:41,200 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: such preparation. I felt that with all this I could win,

715
00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:45,680
Speaker 2: but it didn't work out. That's all thanks to the

716
00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:48,240
Speaker 2: organization for such a chance and everyone involved. I wanted

717
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,200
Speaker 2: to wrap up the spectacle and justify the expectations without

718
00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,920
Speaker 2: breaking up the fight. Salute to everyone who is with me.

719
00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,240
Speaker 2: Blah blahlah blah. So Luke, I mean, here's the deal.

720
00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 2: It's always going to be a poor style matchup for

721
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,440
Speaker 2: a guy who's a power striker but doesn't have a

722
00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:06,040
Speaker 2: ton of craft and technique. He's not a reckless brawler.

723
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:09,320
Speaker 2: But we had questions coming in. What medical condition could

724
00:32:09,320 --> 00:32:10,640
Speaker 2: it be talked about? I kind of need to know

725
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 2: more on that. Is it the one? I think?

726
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: Do you remember blong on? Look?

727
00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,800
Speaker 6: It sounded to me something like digestive or some kind

728
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 6: of organ related issue.

729
00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:20,480
Speaker 7: I'm not sure.

730
00:32:20,520 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 1: I joked to BC earlier, was it the eye.

731
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:24,720
Speaker 6: I don't actually, because he said he was worried about

732
00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:26,840
Speaker 6: throwing up as a consequence, so I had to be

733
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 6: some kind.

734
00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,360
Speaker 2: Of I mean, I did see even though one judge

735
00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 2: gave him around three and even though round three was

736
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 2: the most, he sort of pressed because this corner, you know,

737
00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:34,600
Speaker 2: it just didn't he.

738
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:37,800
Speaker 1: Didn't have that upper room level of urgency to turn on.

739
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 2: He didn't.

740
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:38,479
Speaker 1: This is what.

741
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,400
Speaker 2: He didn't have that higher gear to really Either that

742
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:43,680
Speaker 2: or it was just it's hard to throw when you've

743
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 2: got a guy that's that quick, that unorthodox, that elusive,

744
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:49,560
Speaker 2: who can dive in. I mean, MVP hit him with

745
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 2: some creative strikes that you know, was like, I haven't

746
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 2: seen shit like this.

747
00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 6: I just feel like the story is less about Bullet.

748
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,640
Speaker 6: To be honest with you, again, I think he probably

749
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 6: was ill. It probably made a a role. I think

750
00:33:01,520 --> 00:33:04,160
Speaker 6: that we'll get to the MVP side because actually think

751
00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 6: that's the much more interesting side of this conversation. But

752
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,240
Speaker 6: as relates to Charlebull, this is one point I've made

753
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:10,240
Speaker 6: previously with guys, and I'm gonna make it again here.

754
00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:14,480
Speaker 6: It's okay to have lopsided skills in the UFC. But

755
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:17,080
Speaker 6: if you're gonna do that, then the part that is

756
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 6: lopsided has to be lights out. Yeah, if you're gonna

757
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 6: have Habib level striking, you better have Habib level wrestling. Conversely,

758
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:27,320
Speaker 6: if you're gonna have you know, Anderson silver level striking, right,

759
00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,880
Speaker 6: you have to have something going on in the wrestling game,

760
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 6: or excuse me, you don't.

761
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 1: But like you, obviously you have to be.

762
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:36,000
Speaker 6: Anderson silver level good on the striking, and he is

763
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 6: good striking, but he's not He I think benefits from

764
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 6: a certain kind of style more than others, and there

765
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 6: is no B game. He has no ability to shoot

766
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 6: for takedowns, get on top, and then find another way

767
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:51,280
Speaker 6: to win. I have to tell you, there's nothing about

768
00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:53,440
Speaker 6: what I see in him that Poorten's championship futures.

769
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 2: I would agree with you, and that's why I think

770
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 2: that that was the leadoff topic because of the hype

771
00:33:57,800 --> 00:33:59,600
Speaker 2: that was around him and the idea that he wasn't

772
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,479
Speaker 2: close to a finished product. But do you think this

773
00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:04,720
Speaker 2: loss separate from whatever realities of health conditions he mentioned?

774
00:34:04,760 --> 00:34:06,960
Speaker 2: And I give him respect that that's true. Fighters deal

775
00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:09,400
Speaker 2: with a lot of stuff to get themselves into the cage.

776
00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:11,759
Speaker 2: Is this more about his inabilities or is this about

777
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,600
Speaker 2: Michael venam Page moving up in wait in his late

778
00:34:14,640 --> 00:34:17,080
Speaker 2: thirties and putting forth a pretty damn good performance.

779
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,880
Speaker 6: I really think this is the MVP is the story here, MVP.

780
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 6: I've seen it so many times where guys come from

781
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,400
Speaker 6: another organization and they are the sum total of whatever

782
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:30,920
Speaker 6: that person's sense of that organization's reputation is.

783
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,360
Speaker 1: Oh, Bellator is the B League.

784
00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 6: This can only be a B League guy, And then

785
00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:36,719
Speaker 6: no one is necessarily saying he's going to go win

786
00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 6: a title. I think he was ranked fourteenth or fifteenth

787
00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:41,399
Speaker 6: that onein seventy. He'll be ranked around that mark here

788
00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:43,720
Speaker 6: for this win. But you know, he came into the UFC,

789
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:47,319
Speaker 6: fought Kevin holland looked better than him, fought MV excuse me,

790
00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:48,200
Speaker 6: fought Ian.

791
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 2: Gary turned into a wrestler.

792
00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:52,280
Speaker 6: Now, I thought he beat Ian Garriot's debatable was close,

793
00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 6: but I thought he won, and then here he is.

794
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:58,720
Speaker 6: He just had bullet flummixed. The reality is one MVP

795
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:03,399
Speaker 6: was suffering from a sense about Bellatore's upside and what

796
00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 6: they could reasonably confer in terms of matriculating talent. People

797
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:09,600
Speaker 6: just assumed because he was belat or he just can't

798
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:12,200
Speaker 6: be that good. And it turns out, at thirty seven,

799
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 6: up at one eighty five, his game is still crafty.

800
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,520
Speaker 1: He is still hard to deal with. He has really.

801
00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:20,799
Speaker 6: Found a way to make that game work, even at

802
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,000
Speaker 6: this late stage of his career. And charl Bullet may

803
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 6: have been sick, absolutely, but he also just had no answers,

804
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 6: no inkling of a direction to go other than the

805
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 6: leg kicks. But it didn't really do enough in the end,

806
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:36,720
Speaker 6: and it looked to me like MVP had a lot

807
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:39,719
Speaker 6: figured out, and that was really the difference between that.

808
00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:43,080
Speaker 2: Well, here's the crazy part coming in. MVP had explicitly

809
00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 2: said this is a one off. It was a good

810
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 2: opportunity for him. He took it. You know what he's

811
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 2: saying now, Luke, I want to get your take on this.

812
00:35:50,400 --> 00:35:53,080
Speaker 2: He's now saying, I think I can go up one

813
00:35:53,160 --> 00:35:56,759
Speaker 2: division higher to light heavyweight, and he welcomes a fight

814
00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,799
Speaker 2: with YERI Prohatska. So before you say, holy shit, that's

815
00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:02,200
Speaker 2: a crazy idea. He's in his late thirties, he's a welterweight.

816
00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:07,359
Speaker 2: His speed advantages in terms of reaction time, quickness, all

817
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:11,839
Speaker 2: the unorthodoxy stuff he does that only that looks even

818
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 2: more dramatic than the higher he moves up in wait.

819
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 2: Obviously there's the questions about the physicality. Can he take

820
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 2: the punching power? Would you sign up for an MVP

821
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:23,040
Speaker 2: YEARI Prahatska shootout at two o five? I mean, what

822
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,400
Speaker 2: is he saying? This is wild?

823
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,560
Speaker 6: Sure, sure he's making the most out of taking on

824
00:36:28,680 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 6: people that the fans like. Fans like Kevin Holland in

825
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 6: Gary's less a fan favor, but that's an important fight

826
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:36,080
Speaker 6: that needed to be had, and now you're taking on

827
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,040
Speaker 6: We took on Shore a bullet to great effect. Urie

828
00:36:39,080 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 6: also a fan school Jesus from I think of let

829
00:36:41,680 --> 00:36:44,680
Speaker 6: Uri also a fan favorite. Damn this fucking thing sor

830
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,240
Speaker 6: right all right, here we go. Uri also a fan favorite.

831
00:36:48,280 --> 00:36:50,799
Speaker 6: So to me, it's like, dude, he's not gonna win

832
00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,200
Speaker 6: a title again? He is he gonna beat Anthony Hernandez.

833
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,399
Speaker 6: I just I just don't see something like that likely.

834
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:58,560
Speaker 6: But if you can find ways to stay relevant big cards,

835
00:36:58,600 --> 00:36:59,160
Speaker 6: big names.

836
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,680
Speaker 2: Remember the Kung Le he went on across Strike Force

837
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,400
Speaker 2: in UFC when Kung Lee just made fun fights against

838
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:06,560
Speaker 2: other big names, and it was never really about him

839
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 2: being in title contention too much anywhere. I'd like to

840
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,040
Speaker 2: see that from MVP, so I kind of support this

841
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:12,600
Speaker 2: if he feels like he can pull it off. Do

842
00:37:12,640 --> 00:37:15,839
Speaker 2: you think he would give Yeri troubles trying to chase

843
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:17,320
Speaker 2: him and trying to catch up with the movement.

844
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 6: Yuri's a little less hittable than he once was. He's

845
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,000
Speaker 6: something he's working on, but he has been hitable. I

846
00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,360
Speaker 6: think it again. He's durable, though. I think that'd be

847
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:26,760
Speaker 6: a problem for MVP. Obviously he's gonna be much bigger

848
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:27,200
Speaker 6: than him now.

849
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,200
Speaker 2: The Saint Douglas lima across from me. If you take

850
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:30,879
Speaker 2: a Yeri Prahotska shot out two five.

851
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:31,720
Speaker 1: But that is interesting.

852
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 2: The other storyline surrounding MVP was no flag on his

853
00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,480
Speaker 2: graphic on the walk to the cage, yes, which wasn't

854
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,320
Speaker 2: about any you know, Ukraine Russia war like we've sometimes

855
00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:42,960
Speaker 2: seen the past. Here's MVP talking about that after the fight.

856
00:37:43,200 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 2: You were the only fighter today on the tack cart

857
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,640
Speaker 2: that did not have a little flag next to your

858
00:37:47,719 --> 00:37:49,200
Speaker 2: name when you were coming out on the screen.

859
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:56,840
Speaker 12: Why I feel like everyone everyone's always trying to find

860
00:37:56,960 --> 00:38:02,160
Speaker 12: their group and it. What it does for me is

861
00:38:02,200 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 12: it builds more separation where one race human race, and

862
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,359
Speaker 12: I live by that though. I don't care where you

863
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 12: come from, what job you do. You could be a king,

864
00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 12: you could be a pauper. I will show you the

865
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:16,520
Speaker 12: same respect. I don't care where it's for.

866
00:38:16,560 --> 00:38:20,759
Speaker 2: Me, just constant labels at touched to people I.

867
00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,359
Speaker 1: Just don't like Luke.

868
00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,239
Speaker 2: We heard a lot of labels from Connor McGregor and

869
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,319
Speaker 2: Bryce Mitchell recently. This is actually kind of refreshing. What

870
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 2: do you think about this?

871
00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:32,720
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know what to make of anything

872
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,640
Speaker 1: in MM anymore, but it was nice to hear that

873
00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 1: he didn't think Hitler was a good guy to go

874
00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:37,000
Speaker 1: fishing with free Math.

875
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:39,680
Speaker 2: Okay, there we go with that.

876
00:38:39,680 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 1: That's that's the demarcation line pre Math. Look.

877
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:45,920
Speaker 2: The other big ish at least on paper fight on

878
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:49,360
Speaker 2: this card came in the heavyweight division, as Sergei Pavlovitch

879
00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 2: took on dry Air rosen Strike and despite long Island

880
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 2: Luke trying to talk us into plus money on rosen

881
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 2: Strike and talking dumbass.

882
00:38:57,480 --> 00:38:59,040
Speaker 11: Wow, that was that fight sucked?

883
00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:02,040
Speaker 7: Also, I did cash Pavlovich to get a takedown plus

884
00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:02,960
Speaker 7: seven hundred.

885
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:08,120
Speaker 2: Oh shit fight blue hard, hard enough for Tom Aspinall

886
00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:10,239
Speaker 2: to hit the I G L I L if we

887
00:39:10,280 --> 00:39:13,879
Speaker 2: could see that these heavyweight fights lately absolutely stink. Let's

888
00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 2: get some excitement and stop holding it up. Maybe that's

889
00:39:16,239 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 2: him also saying, Hey, UFC and John Jones, can we

890
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:19,439
Speaker 2: sign this big ass fight?

891
00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:20,120
Speaker 1: Luke?

892
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,000
Speaker 2: What do we say here? Because the argument I had

893
00:39:22,040 --> 00:39:24,120
Speaker 2: on why Rosenstrug was not going to win this fight

894
00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 2: was that it's a we know it's a steep decline

895
00:39:26,719 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 2: after the elite heavyweights. So let's let's be honest here.

896
00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,880
Speaker 2: Who are the elite heavyweights? John Jones, Tom Aspinall.

897
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 1: Curtis played, Yes, elite adjacent certainly.

898
00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:44,759
Speaker 2: Alexander Volkov Same, am I missing anyone out? Surreal game sorry,

899
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:50,839
Speaker 2: cereal games, cereal gain. Okay, so that's five. Is either

900
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 2: the worst of that or I should say that about Volkoff,

901
00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,480
Speaker 2: but it's true here either the worst of that or

902
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 2: the best of that. Next level of crap.

903
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:58,560
Speaker 1: This one was terrible?

904
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,800
Speaker 2: What is this? A Is this about these two fighters

905
00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 2: or is this about the division at large?

906
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 1: At the post? A little of both?

907
00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,640
Speaker 6: Dude, This fight sucked so much ass, it's unbelievable. I mean,

908
00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 6: Sergai can't okay, Sarahai had trouble finding openings. He had

909
00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:14,520
Speaker 6: some who was fading off to that right hand. That

910
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 6: was nice, but Biggie boy was just waiting around because

911
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 6: he couldn't create any opening.

912
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: He was just waiting for Sergey to go. So there

913
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 1: was just a lot of inactivity. It had single digit

914
00:40:22,360 --> 00:40:25,600
Speaker 1: strikes landed I think in multiple rounds, and then he

915
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,239
Speaker 1: had to go for takedowns or you know, falling on

916
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: top of a guy who fell over and he couldn't

917
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,680
Speaker 1: pass and couldn't get any ground and pound going on

918
00:40:33,760 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 1: a guy who was merely holding on to half guard

919
00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:40,799
Speaker 1: for dear life. This was fucking miserable, miserable ass fight.

920
00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:44,640
Speaker 1: This division is cooked. It's so fucking terrible. I think

921
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,920
Speaker 1: Sargai is better than what he showed.

922
00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:50,160
Speaker 6: I do believe that, but it it seemed to me,

923
00:40:50,200 --> 00:40:52,600
Speaker 6: in fairness to him, if we can say that, he

924
00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 6: was just looking for what you like to call survive

925
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 6: in advance right in the tournament's kind of thing. He

926
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,319
Speaker 6: was just looking, I think, to get right and he did.

927
00:40:59,680 --> 00:41:02,040
Speaker 6: That's nothing, and it could be very valuable for him

928
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 6: down the road. But this fight was butt cheeks, Wow.

929
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:11,000
Speaker 2: Big butt cheeks, wow, big old but I got a

930
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,279
Speaker 2: shout out although it was they continue to put her

931
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,720
Speaker 2: as deep on the undercard as they possibly can. Jasmine

932
00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:19,840
Speaker 2: Jazzdavisius at one twenty five takes on former title challenger

933
00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,799
Speaker 2: at bantamway, Mayra Bueno Silva, who moved back down to

934
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 2: one twenty five. And even though it's a third straight

935
00:41:25,160 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 2: defeat for Silva, and it's certainly a damning turn of

936
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,839
Speaker 2: events for somebody that we thought, or at least I thought,

937
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,560
Speaker 2: was gonna easily beat Rocky Pennington for that title. Look,

938
00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 2: this is four straight wins for Jasmine at one twenty five.

939
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:38,360
Speaker 2: She has turned it around. She's added the striking to

940
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 2: her takedown game, like she seems to be putting together.

941
00:41:41,120 --> 00:41:41,920
Speaker 2: How impressed are you?

942
00:41:43,440 --> 00:41:48,719
Speaker 1: Pretty impressed? I mean there's a competition. I think you

943
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:51,680
Speaker 1: know women's MMA right now is really not super.

944
00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:55,279
Speaker 2: But this division is the best by far women's.

945
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,080
Speaker 6: Yes, and I think Jazz Divisius is really she seems

946
00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:01,359
Speaker 6: to be headed towards a peak or speaking, she really

947
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,239
Speaker 6: has turned a corner and stays ready, stays active, gets

948
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:06,880
Speaker 6: after it she's not without faults, but she's with lots

949
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:07,440
Speaker 6: of pluses.

950
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:09,279
Speaker 2: Well, she's thirty five, so it's good time to get it,

951
00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:09,960
Speaker 2: get to it right now.

952
00:42:09,960 --> 00:42:11,839
Speaker 6: I think the women tend to age a little bit later,

953
00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:13,880
Speaker 6: so I don't think that's as much of a like

954
00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 6: male heavyweights kinda kinda.

955
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:18,000
Speaker 1: So this is the time for her to really get

956
00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:19,840
Speaker 1: stuff on the gas, and she is. And so I

957
00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 1: think for those reasons, it's it's it's good to see

958
00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:22,120
Speaker 1: what she's.

959
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 2: Doing that moved me, anything else move you? On this

960
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,880
Speaker 2: undercard Long Island, Luke was talking about sayied nor Magametov

961
00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 2: spinny ship that he was spamming.

962
00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 6: That fight was also not great from what I could

963
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 6: see of it. For as Zion beating Mike Davis.

964
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:35,600
Speaker 7: Mike David wait wait wait wait, that was fight of

965
00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 7: the night, sayed nor Magametto of Venetia Solavera.

966
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,560
Speaker 6: I missed around, I missed the last round, but it

967
00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:42,880
Speaker 6: was fire the night because they just awore donkery.

968
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:44,279
Speaker 1: They were just donks donkin Well.

969
00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,600
Speaker 7: I do think frost Zim Mike Davis should have been

970
00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:48,520
Speaker 7: fight of the night. Yet both of those fights were great.

971
00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:49,800
Speaker 1: OLIVERA.

972
00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,680
Speaker 6: Nema metof your mile to be very The ze im

973
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:53,880
Speaker 6: Davis hight was interesting. The only thing that was weird

974
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:58,000
Speaker 6: was Davis ten seconds into the fight, just like pulls guard.

975
00:42:58,120 --> 00:42:59,680
Speaker 1: And I'm like, what do I think he was hurt?

976
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:00,879
Speaker 1: There was something weird about that.

977
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:03,240
Speaker 6: I thought so too, like it just didn't make sense. However,

978
00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:04,800
Speaker 6: I will say this people like, oh, well, you're.

979
00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:07,680
Speaker 1: Saying XIOM didn't look good. No, no, no, no, no. XOM looked

980
00:43:07,719 --> 00:43:08,200
Speaker 1: really good.

981
00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 6: Some of his striking very accurate, great timing, great shot selection.

982
00:43:12,400 --> 00:43:16,719
Speaker 6: I think XM is awesome. It was just strange from

983
00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 6: Mike Davis on the prelim card BC. You know GAYSI able, Oh,

984
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,960
Speaker 6: Terrence Kenny, Terrence McKinny looked pretty good.

985
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,839
Speaker 2: He was the fourth straight fight McKinney either finished someone

986
00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:26,759
Speaker 2: in the first round or was finished in the first.

987
00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,879
Speaker 1: Yeah he second round. No, no, not doing it first

988
00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:32,640
Speaker 1: round winner lose. I kind of like that approach.

989
00:43:32,719 --> 00:43:35,120
Speaker 2: But that was a pretty damn NUBS card for the

990
00:43:35,120 --> 00:43:38,160
Speaker 2: most part. It'll only get worse at three twelve this Saturday.

991
00:43:38,200 --> 00:43:39,359
Speaker 2: Outside of the top two fights.

992
00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 6: I keep saying this, I don't think three twelve is

993
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:43,560
Speaker 6: in any way worse. I just don't agree with that long.

994
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 2: Look, can you put this man?

995
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:47,680
Speaker 7: You need to really dissect both of these. I mean,

996
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:49,839
Speaker 7: come on, Sody is so much better on paper. I'm

997
00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 7: not saying three twelve is gonna be bad. The two

998
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,560
Speaker 7: title fights are fantastic, there's no denying that.

999
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:57,200
Speaker 1: You justin Toper versus Talis and to Shera is not

1000
00:43:57,280 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 1: my favorite.

1001
00:43:58,160 --> 00:43:58,920
Speaker 2: Take the twurf top.

1002
00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:02,080
Speaker 6: Jimmy Crut versus is Belatoe is gonna be madness for

1003
00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,360
Speaker 6: as long as that last. Jake Matthews Pratto is interesting,

1004
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:07,200
Speaker 6: It's not interesting. Jake Jack Jenkins on the premium card

1005
00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,640
Speaker 6: is interesting. Wang Kong or Wang Tong on the premium card.

1006
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:10,879
Speaker 2: Yeah, she's got to bounce back.

1007
00:44:10,920 --> 00:44:11,560
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1008
00:44:11,640 --> 00:44:14,719
Speaker 6: Alexander Tuporia on the premium card is interesting. Also, you

1009
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 6: add in a few more of these guys.

1010
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:17,520
Speaker 2: I think it's two fights into.

1011
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:21,360
Speaker 6: Carey Steal on the early prelims, a huge BJJ Phenom

1012
00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,799
Speaker 6: finally getting some run in the UFC. That is a

1013
00:44:23,800 --> 00:44:26,560
Speaker 6: big ass fight. No, you're just wrong. Saudi was not

1014
00:44:26,640 --> 00:44:27,239
Speaker 6: a better card.

1015
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 2: You put a poll in the in the WIA please

1016
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 2: to get the people, because what they're.

1017
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:34,560
Speaker 6: Gonna do is they're gonna vote on vibes. They don't

1018
00:44:34,600 --> 00:44:36,359
Speaker 6: feel like it's listen.

1019
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:40,600
Speaker 2: Hey, vibes won me a dead concerts.

1020
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:40,680
Speaker 1: So true, it's so true.

1021
00:44:40,800 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 6: But the point I want to make is people are

1022
00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:44,239
Speaker 6: going to say, relative to what they expect from pay

1023
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:46,880
Speaker 6: per view, this is a letdown, which they're right it is.

1024
00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,080
Speaker 6: But all I'm saying is card for cards Saudi versus

1025
00:44:50,080 --> 00:44:51,839
Speaker 6: this one. No, the Saudi card is not better. Sorry,

1026
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:52,239
Speaker 6: you're wrong.

1027
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 2: BKFC, by the way, had a card in Connecticut over

00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:06,560

1089
00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:34,080
Speaker 6: get a notification the delivery that they set me. This

1090
00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:35,319
Speaker 6: is how many wings they sent me.

1091
00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 1: It was nine pounds, nine pounds. Then they throw in

1092
00:47:39,360 --> 00:47:41,280
Speaker 1: some blue cheese, they throw in some Butfalo the sauce

1093
00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:41,840
Speaker 1: as well.

1094
00:47:41,719 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 2: All the fictions come.

1095
00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,080
Speaker 1: It was a huge bag. Guys.

1103
00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:05,799
Speaker 2: three on today's show. I was there, I was on

1104
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:08,720
Speaker 2: the call this weekend. It went down Saturday, Tmobile Arena

1105
00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:11,200
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas, PBC on Prime pay per View and

1106
00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 2: an undefeated light heavyweight summit to produce in theory the

1107
00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,760
Speaker 2: next challenger for the undisputed Championship that will be rematched

1108
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,600
Speaker 2: February twenty second, when better In Bevall face off. But

1109
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 2: this was about the two Davids Benavidez in Morel and Luke.

1110
00:48:25,080 --> 00:48:29,239
Speaker 2: After a red hot build to this fight, so much

1111
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,960
Speaker 2: bad blood between them, so much good stuff going on,

1112
00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,319
Speaker 2: they put on a mini classic a Some people are

1113
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 2: talking about multiple Fight of the Year contenders coming off

1114
00:48:38,239 --> 00:48:40,960
Speaker 2: this card on Saturday. But after what we saw from

1115
00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:46,440
Speaker 2: Benavidez scoring a unanimous decision over twelve rounds, what did

1116
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 2: that performance in your eyes say about what could happen

1117
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:53,200
Speaker 2: next and his chances of winning the undisputed title against

1118
00:48:53,200 --> 00:48:54,399
Speaker 2: the winner of better bv.

1119
00:48:54,440 --> 00:48:55,000
Speaker 1: Bevall two.

1120
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,160
Speaker 6: In some ways, the performance made me more confident in

1121
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,080
Speaker 6: his chances. In other ways, it made me less confident.

1122
00:49:03,239 --> 00:49:06,280
Speaker 2: Healthy hands though, unlike the Vosdik debut at light heavyweight,

1123
00:49:06,320 --> 00:49:08,080
Speaker 2: you saw you see what you get now from him?

1124
00:49:08,160 --> 00:49:13,320
Speaker 1: Yes, you got just relentless punishment. Body.

1125
00:49:13,600 --> 00:49:15,400
Speaker 6: Let's talk about the good part first, because I want

1126
00:49:15,440 --> 00:49:16,520
Speaker 6: to tell you about one thing that really kind of

1127
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:17,799
Speaker 6: stood out to me. But let's talk about the good

1128
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 6: first from David Benavitez. First of all, I think he

1129
00:49:20,080 --> 00:49:22,319
Speaker 6: landed forty seven point nine percent of his power shots

1130
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,399
Speaker 6: according to compy ridiculous, which is in.

1131
00:49:24,360 --> 00:49:26,759
Speaker 2: A close fight, in a close back and forth fight

1132
00:49:26,760 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 2: between elite guys.

1133
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:28,080
Speaker 1: That's ridiculous.

1134
00:49:28,120 --> 00:49:29,520
Speaker 6: And we'll talk about morell in a minute, because I

1135
00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,040
Speaker 6: also think he showed fantastic heart. But let's talk about

1136
00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:35,800
Speaker 6: the good part of Benavidez. The body work was absolutely tremendous.

1137
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:37,160
Speaker 6: He found so many openings for it.

1138
00:49:37,200 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 1: BC. How about the guard peels and then coming around

1139
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:40,680
Speaker 1: the corner.

1140
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:43,520
Speaker 2: Dude, the variety every fight, Benavitez is adding more offensively

1141
00:49:43,560 --> 00:49:45,719
Speaker 2: to the creativity. You're seeing little side arm shots to

1142
00:49:45,719 --> 00:49:47,799
Speaker 2: get around the guard. You mentioned, pulling the glove down

1143
00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:51,359
Speaker 2: and whacking him, the uppercuts, the combinations, and he does

1144
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 2: that standing right in front of him. You squared it up.

1145
00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 2: I mean, it's ridiculous.

1146
00:49:55,080 --> 00:49:57,800
Speaker 1: He has so many ways of getting you to defend

1147
00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:01,480
Speaker 1: and then builds offense around that that you just can't.

1148
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:02,880
Speaker 1: You're just gonna get rained on.

1149
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,319
Speaker 6: It doesn't matter where you put the umbrella, it just

1150
00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,839
Speaker 6: finds ways to get inside. And that's really what he

1151
00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,680
Speaker 6: was so effective at. The jab wasn't his most potent weapon,

1152
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:13,680
Speaker 6: but it was very, very important again to get the

1153
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,320
Speaker 6: gloves up and then he could work around the sides

1154
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,480
Speaker 6: and do the peels and everything else. So the body

1155
00:50:17,480 --> 00:50:20,919
Speaker 6: work the creativity, the overall work rate. It's just hard

1156
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:23,640
Speaker 6: to keep up with Benavidez because he's just NonStop.

1157
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:25,919
Speaker 1: He's always in your face. And I want to say

1158
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:29,480
Speaker 1: this too, BC, I don't want to overstate the case

1159
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:31,000
Speaker 1: of Benavitez's defense.

1160
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 6: In fact, there was a couple of times he got

1161
00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,040
Speaker 6: hit with some big shots and got his legs wobbled

1162
00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:34,840
Speaker 6: just for a moment.

1163
00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,600
Speaker 2: Round four, that right hand off the ropes and.

1164
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 1: Then an eleven.

1165
00:50:38,160 --> 00:50:39,799
Speaker 6: Obviously he had his touch the gloves, which is partly

1166
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:41,640
Speaker 6: a trip, but he got hit with some big shots.

1167
00:50:41,640 --> 00:50:43,840
Speaker 6: I mean, there's no denying it. I'm not making the

1168
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:45,759
Speaker 6: claim that he's some kind of defensive slick stirt.

1169
00:50:45,920 --> 00:50:50,840
Speaker 1: Far from it. However, for a guy who is always throwing.

1170
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:55,040
Speaker 6: And squared up in front of you, his defense given

1171
00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,680
Speaker 6: those contexts is actually pretty good.

1172
00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:57,919
Speaker 1: Dude.

1173
00:50:57,920 --> 00:50:59,880
Speaker 2: Can I tell you something. Setting into the fight, according

1174
00:50:59,920 --> 00:51:02,360
Speaker 2: to Compybox, he had the third best plus minus in all.

1175
00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 1: Of Box's remarkable.

1176
00:51:03,160 --> 00:51:06,920
Speaker 2: We're talking about Shakur Stephenson level that's normally boxing technicians.

1177
00:51:07,000 --> 00:51:10,319
Speaker 2: This is a monster. This is a stalking bully who

1178
00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:13,560
Speaker 2: fights mean at every turn, which means he's always looking

1179
00:51:13,600 --> 00:51:16,399
Speaker 2: to add that extra power shot in and yet it's

1180
00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:17,680
Speaker 2: hard to hit this guy in take.

1181
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:18,200
Speaker 1: And overtake him.

1182
00:51:18,200 --> 00:51:19,880
Speaker 6: And I think to the extent he got hit at

1183
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:21,279
Speaker 6: all in this fight with some of those big shots,

1184
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:24,160
Speaker 6: it's only because Morel showed incredible gumption, which a lot

1185
00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:26,560
Speaker 6: of opponents I don't think necessarily what have especially late

1186
00:51:26,600 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 6: in that fight.

1187
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:29,840
Speaker 1: But you know his ability to step out.

1188
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:33,799
Speaker 6: At angles now close range on his terms, he's just

1189
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,759
Speaker 6: doing a bunch of stuff that and also be seen,

1190
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:37,560
Speaker 6: let's just be honest.

1191
00:51:37,920 --> 00:51:39,800
Speaker 1: Part of his defense is his offense.

1192
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 6: No, no, he's just throwing, throwing, throwing, throwing, so the

1193
00:51:42,239 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 6: guys just can't get going. But he compliments that now

1194
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 6: with better defense along the way. And I have to

1195
00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 6: say through all of that, I'm like, dude, if he

1196
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:55,959
Speaker 6: can just have a high work rate, he can beat

1197
00:51:55,960 --> 00:51:57,240
Speaker 6: anybody in that division.

1198
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:58,759
Speaker 1: That's just the reality.

1199
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:00,960
Speaker 6: And if you want to try and discipline him like

1200
00:52:01,040 --> 00:52:04,000
Speaker 6: Morell did, it wasn't enough.

1201
00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:06,440
Speaker 1: It's got a great chin too, He has a phenomenal chin.

1202
00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,959
Speaker 6: And by the way, his cardiovascular conditioning I'm not gonna

1203
00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:11,520
Speaker 6: call it morob level, but well.

1204
00:52:11,360 --> 00:52:13,440
Speaker 2: We used to used to be a potential problem. Remember

1205
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:14,879
Speaker 2: when he was stripped of the title for the failed

1206
00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 2: drug test. Than missing weight, the narrative was this guy

1207
00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:19,880
Speaker 2: is doesn't have the discipline to be to be an

1208
00:52:19,920 --> 00:52:22,319
Speaker 2: elite fighter. He turned that around on the Caleb Plant win.

1209
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 2: He's only gotten better in those areas because I rewatched

1210
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 2: this fight, and it's like every time Morel had success,

1211
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:30,359
Speaker 2: benavide Is dug into a deeper gear and came back

1212
00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,879
Speaker 2: even more and more aggressive, more volume, constantly putting on him.

1213
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:37,040
Speaker 2: He's a tsunami. I don't think we've seen someone his size.

1214
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:39,600
Speaker 2: Even if his power hasn't fully carried up to seventy

1215
00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:41,759
Speaker 2: five on like a one punch level, right, it's still

1216
00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:44,439
Speaker 2: more about I want to talk accumulation, beating you down.

1217
00:52:44,880 --> 00:52:48,600
Speaker 2: He is all over you. It is hard for anybody

1218
00:52:48,640 --> 00:52:51,640
Speaker 2: to I'm actually surprised, ultimately, and it's a credit to

1219
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:54,000
Speaker 2: Morel that he went the distance, because the version of

1220
00:52:54,040 --> 00:52:56,879
Speaker 2: Benavidez that he fought on Saturday was the prime best

1221
00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,000
Speaker 2: we've ever seen of him. So for Morel to go

1222
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:01,920
Speaker 2: the distance there and even a couple moments late, it speaks,

1223
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 2: as we said, to how great he may be one day,

1224
00:53:04,520 --> 00:53:07,240
Speaker 2: because remember how young, and he's only had twelve pro fights.

1225
00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 1: Now, let me let me add to that if I

1226
00:53:09,120 --> 00:53:11,480
Speaker 1: may b see. Don't you find it really interesting that

1227
00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:14,440
Speaker 1: both in MMA and boxing now you're seeing guys emerge

1228
00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:17,480
Speaker 1: who don't necessarily have at this weight class. We're talking

1229
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:20,040
Speaker 1: about Benavidez, not sixty eight and below. They don't have

1230
00:53:20,120 --> 00:53:22,680
Speaker 1: lights out power, they don't have lights out finishing ability,

1231
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,960
Speaker 1: but they have this insane capacity for work. Yes, and

1232
00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 1: people just can't deal with it. You have to hurt

1233
00:53:29,120 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 1: them to change them in MMA, and it works in boxing. Again,

1234
00:53:32,560 --> 00:53:35,720
Speaker 1: there's differences between them, obviously, but I find that very notework.

1235
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:37,600
Speaker 2: He's the least likely guy a couple of years ago

1236
00:53:37,600 --> 00:53:40,200
Speaker 2: that we would think could weaponize cardio the way he does. Obviously,

1237
00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:43,880
Speaker 2: he's weaponizing it through the vehicle of a mean, hard hitting, creative,

1238
00:53:43,920 --> 00:53:46,600
Speaker 2: offensive force. But you're right there, to some degree, he's

1239
00:53:46,600 --> 00:53:50,040
Speaker 2: weaponizing this cardio because it's not just can your backbone

1240
00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:51,960
Speaker 2: hold up? Like Demetrius Andred look good for a couple

1241
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:52,719
Speaker 2: of rounds.

1242
00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: And then just faded.

1243
00:53:54,120 --> 00:53:56,120
Speaker 2: And you know, all we always talk about is, oh,

1244
00:53:56,120 --> 00:53:59,000
Speaker 2: benavide is like the great slow starter. You know, takes

1245
00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 2: time to adjust, but once you makes that adjustment, it's downhill.

1246
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 2: He was almost downhill in round one, and I asked

1247
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 2: him about after the fight, and his response was he

1248
00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:08,719
Speaker 2: it was easier to hit Morel than he thought it

1249
00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:10,040
Speaker 2: would be. And I think some of that is due

1250
00:54:10,080 --> 00:54:13,000
Speaker 2: to the decision Morell made to actually kind of back

1251
00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,040
Speaker 2: up his words and trade a Monoi model. Morell didn't

1252
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:18,120
Speaker 2: make this a boring fight by trying to circle away

1253
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 2: and use his legs. He stoodn't fought, but the fact

1254
00:54:21,120 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 2: that Benavidez started high paced from round one. Dude, when

1255
00:54:25,520 --> 00:54:28,680
Speaker 2: he's dialed in like this, you know I had questions

1256
00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:31,080
Speaker 2: coming into could he beat Bevall or better bef based

1257
00:54:31,120 --> 00:54:33,640
Speaker 2: on what we saw against Vosdik. Dude, when he's healthy,

1258
00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:35,200
Speaker 2: he can beat anybody, can be anybody.

1259
00:54:35,160 --> 00:54:38,120
Speaker 6: To tell you what concerns I have. You called him

1260
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,600
Speaker 6: hard hitting, I am not convinced of that at one

1261
00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:43,440
Speaker 6: seventy five. I have real questions about his power from.

1262
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:44,120
Speaker 2: A one punch standpoint.

1263
00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,960
Speaker 6: Yes, I'll give you he overwhelms you, clearly, I'm not suggesting.

1264
00:54:47,000 --> 00:54:49,120
Speaker 6: I mean, look, he just beat a really quality opponent

1265
00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:51,279
Speaker 6: in a really quality way. But now we're talking about

1266
00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:55,480
Speaker 6: better be even Bevell, very different ballgame. If you can't

1267
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:59,000
Speaker 6: hurt those guys. That's a tough fight to win, just

1268
00:54:59,320 --> 00:55:02,040
Speaker 6: a matter of fact. And a guy like better Bev

1269
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:04,520
Speaker 6: is interesting because he's going to meet him head on.

1270
00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,799
Speaker 6: And a guy like Bival is also interesting because his

1271
00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,680
Speaker 6: ring craft is the best in the entire day. Yes,

1272
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:14,040
Speaker 6: so the two next fights for him are very, very different,

1273
00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 6: but also much more interesting than even this one was already.

1274
00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:19,720
Speaker 6: But I just have to say one, the power problem,

1275
00:55:19,800 --> 00:55:21,880
Speaker 6: I think is going to be a real limiting factor

1276
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,839
Speaker 6: at the very very top end of this division for him. Second,

1277
00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:30,400
Speaker 6: right now, he is I mean flying high with good reason.

1278
00:55:30,440 --> 00:55:33,439
Speaker 6: He looks so fucking good. But this style is going

1279
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,040
Speaker 6: to age poorly. Now that's not really relevant for the

1280
00:55:36,040 --> 00:55:37,839
Speaker 6: next fight or the one after that, or really even

1281
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:41,280
Speaker 6: for the foreseeable future, but it will age out quickly.

1282
00:55:41,440 --> 00:55:42,440
Speaker 1: It will age out quickly.

1283
00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 6: If your whole premise is I'm going to outwork you,

1284
00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:49,440
Speaker 6: but not with dominating power. When you begin to decline

1285
00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:50,920
Speaker 6: in age, that's going to catch up.

1286
00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:52,080
Speaker 1: Ask racidly.

1287
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,320
Speaker 2: It wasn't a topic this week, but when we remember

1288
00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:57,560
Speaker 2: we went out last year to those PBC events, we

1289
00:55:57,560 --> 00:55:59,440
Speaker 2: talked to Jim Lampley a couple of times we interviewed him.

1290
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,959
Speaker 2: One of those interviews. I remember him telling me, maybe

1291
00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:03,479
Speaker 2: it was the time that we were at that tank

1292
00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:06,799
Speaker 2: in Benavide's co feature, that he had talked to Benavidez

1293
00:56:06,920 --> 00:56:09,719
Speaker 2: and he thinks down the line that Benavidez could move

1294
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:12,080
Speaker 2: up to heavyweight and has the size to do it.

1295
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,399
Speaker 2: To do that, to go up to cruiser and then

1296
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:17,760
Speaker 2: heavy it's going to have to be more about boxing,

1297
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:19,919
Speaker 2: and he's probably gonna be able to. I mean, his speed.

1298
00:56:19,920 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 2: I thought Morel was going to have a distinct speed

1299
00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 2: advantage over him, and Benavidez's hand speed was right there

1300
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 2: with him, right. I wonder if he's going, the higher

1301
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:29,560
Speaker 2: he goes, if he's going to still be that bully

1302
00:56:29,600 --> 00:56:31,320
Speaker 2: or if it will be more of a mix of boxing.

1303
00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know how to answer that.

1304
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:36,760
Speaker 6: I don't know what to say, but I just feel

1305
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,480
Speaker 6: like there is so much enthusiasm about what he turned

1306
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:42,480
Speaker 6: in on Saturday, and with very good reason. But we

1307
00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:45,279
Speaker 6: should not we should not be blind to how the

1308
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:49,920
Speaker 6: next set of matchups are both more difficult and directly

1309
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:53,319
Speaker 6: challenged the way in which he wins fights by some

1310
00:56:53,360 --> 00:56:56,880
Speaker 6: of the most skilled power punchers and or technicians anywhere

1311
00:56:56,880 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 6: in boxing, different ballgame.

1312
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,439
Speaker 2: There were a few rounds. I mean, this, this will

1313
00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:02,680
Speaker 2: will It feels like this is a Fight of the

1314
00:57:02,719 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 2: Year contender. I don't know if it ends up being

1315
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:07,400
Speaker 2: in the top three or four. There were a couple sequences.

1316
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:09,360
Speaker 2: Round four obviously was the big one where I mean,

1317
00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 2: especially those first four rounds were so tense, so so

1318
00:57:12,680 --> 00:57:15,000
Speaker 2: much back, those back and forth exchanges. The atmosphere in

1319
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:19,800
Speaker 2: t Mobile on higher during the main event particularly. We

1320
00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:22,040
Speaker 2: talked about it during well, during the Pitple Cruise fight.

1321
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 2: It was on fire nuts people. Cruzier fight was like,

1322
00:57:26,360 --> 00:57:27,080
Speaker 2: we're going to get to that.

1323
00:57:27,160 --> 00:57:29,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was, it was. It was fishing with Hitler premats,

1324
00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 1: I mean it was, it was great. It was unbelievable.

1325
00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:33,000
Speaker 2: Can we stop referencing that place?

1326
00:57:33,080 --> 00:57:34,040
Speaker 1: Cud Okay.

1327
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 6: The point I want to make was, did you heard

1328
00:57:37,560 --> 00:57:40,480
Speaker 6: it a little bit on the broadcast? Did Morell have

1329
00:57:40,560 --> 00:57:43,800
Speaker 6: a noticeable contingent of fans in attendance. There was a

1330
00:57:43,840 --> 00:57:47,560
Speaker 6: brief moment early in the fight where you heard kubo yes.

1331
00:57:47,840 --> 00:57:49,880
Speaker 2: And then the crowd, the majority of the crowd started

1332
00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:52,480
Speaker 2: to boo in response yes yes, which was which was

1333
00:57:52,560 --> 00:57:54,720
Speaker 2: kind of funny. I mean, dude, like they didn't sell up,

1334
00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:56,959
Speaker 2: but they had over twelve thousand in there, and those

1335
00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 2: were those were Benefita's fans, and they were piple fan.

1336
00:57:59,160 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 1: Let's be honest.

1337
00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,840
Speaker 2: Piplell bring a big crowd wherever he goes he does,

1338
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:04,000
Speaker 2: but yeah, they were, they were pro Mexican fans. And

1339
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:09,160
Speaker 2: I mean, look, Benevitez say it like this. I already

1340
00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 2: had him number ten pound for pound. This is the fight, though,

1341
00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:13,120
Speaker 2: I think everybody's gonna put him in pound for pound.

1342
00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:15,720
Speaker 2: Look at the run he's on. Look at the difficulty

1343
00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,400
Speaker 2: of the opponents. Look at the style difference, going from

1344
00:58:18,640 --> 00:58:21,440
Speaker 2: power puncchal Lemieux to Caleb plant as a boxer, to

1345
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:24,240
Speaker 2: the creative in size in South Paul of Andred, who's

1346
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,600
Speaker 2: tough to beat and was unbeaten, coming in to Vosdick

1347
00:58:26,640 --> 00:58:29,280
Speaker 2: with the Ukrainian background, the former champion at won seventy five.

1348
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,400
Speaker 2: Now to David Morel, who we didn't know how great

1349
00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,440
Speaker 2: he was, right he only had eleven pro fights. We

1350
00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:36,880
Speaker 2: can only know at a certain level of competition. But

1351
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,400
Speaker 2: Morell fought his ass off and rightfully lost. Dude, the

1352
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,560
Speaker 2: run he's on, he's pound for pound. No, he's pound

1353
00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:44,760
Speaker 2: for pounds.

1354
00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 1: He's an attraction, dude.

1355
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:50,040
Speaker 6: The ability of David Benavitez is so remarkable that you

1356
00:58:50,080 --> 00:58:51,959
Speaker 6: mentioned like, oh, he's beating all these different body types,

1357
00:58:52,040 --> 00:58:55,520
Speaker 6: sizes and now weight classes too. His style is a

1358
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:57,840
Speaker 6: very unique one. It reminds me again for MMA fans,

1359
00:58:57,880 --> 00:59:00,200
Speaker 6: it's a little habibi like where it's like, oh, Beep

1360
00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:01,520
Speaker 6: has to go against this guy and this guy and

1361
00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:03,280
Speaker 6: this guy, but it ends up just being a case

1362
00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:05,720
Speaker 6: where they just pave over every hit.

1363
00:59:05,920 --> 00:59:08,120
Speaker 1: It doesn't really matter. They're just gonna lay the cement

1364
00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:09,080
Speaker 1: down and.

1365
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:11,520
Speaker 2: Try to run on him. He'll cut off the rings

1366
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:12,480
Speaker 2: and you know, it.

1367
00:59:12,520 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 1: Just has a It just smothers everything in the end.

1368
00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:18,240
Speaker 1: And that's why again, that's why the better even Bill

1369
00:59:18,280 --> 00:59:20,120
Speaker 1: vol fights are going to be so interesting.

1370
00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:22,400
Speaker 2: We had Benevidez after the fight at the Pressure. We

1371
00:59:22,440 --> 00:59:24,920
Speaker 2: have sound of him talking about the power of Morel.

1372
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:26,800
Speaker 2: He gave Morell a lot of respect after which which

1373
00:59:26,840 --> 00:59:28,360
Speaker 2: I like to see after the week they had.

1374
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:29,280
Speaker 1: Here's Benavidez.

1375
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:31,960
Speaker 3: How you doing, David. This is Najic from Cigar Talk.

1376
00:59:32,160 --> 00:59:35,080
Speaker 3: Congratulations on your victory tonight. You've bought a bunch of

1377
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:38,080
Speaker 3: elite opponents, you know, throughout your career, between you know,

1378
00:59:38,160 --> 00:59:40,920
Speaker 3: kayleb Plan and Andred and of course now Morel. Can

1379
00:59:40,960 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 3: you talk about where he ranks just as far as difficulty,

1380
00:59:44,320 --> 00:59:47,800
Speaker 3: you know, between your past opponents, he is.

1381
00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:51,200
Speaker 1: Harder than everybody I face. He's obviously because one seventy five.

1382
00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:53,840
Speaker 1: He's a good fighter.

1383
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 10: But I think just my experience a loan, I've seen

1384
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:57,760
Speaker 10: so much different styles.

1385
00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:01,160
Speaker 8: You know, I've seen Caleb Plants. It means you Andre Bo,

1386
01:00:02,200 --> 01:00:08,080
Speaker 8: Anthony Drell, Cools. So I mean, I kind of like

1387
01:00:08,360 --> 01:00:09,480
Speaker 8: I'm just getting better and better.

1388
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:10,600
Speaker 1: But his do is good.

1389
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,600
Speaker 8: He fucking brought it until the twelfth round, you know

1390
01:00:12,640 --> 01:00:12,920
Speaker 8: what I mean.

1391
01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:15,680
Speaker 1: So he's a good fighter. He's a good fighter. But

1392
01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:17,280
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, I think, like I said,

1393
01:00:17,280 --> 01:00:17,920
Speaker 1: I just showed.

1394
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:23,160
Speaker 2: So Luke. We said, experience was the major difference between

1395
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:25,000
Speaker 2: them coming in and I think you saw that, like

1396
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:26,600
Speaker 2: I think you saw that in there. There were moments

1397
01:00:26,600 --> 01:00:29,000
Speaker 2: that Morell, especially around eleven with that late with that

1398
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 2: hit after the bell, and he was kind of mentally

1399
01:00:30,680 --> 01:00:33,240
Speaker 2: rattled from that. Morell did rally and stay in the

1400
01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:35,440
Speaker 2: fight during the periods that you thought maybe he was

1401
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 2: gonna get overwhelmed. I was, though largely, largely impressed by

1402
01:00:39,720 --> 01:00:42,560
Speaker 2: what Morell did here, even in defeat, to the point

1403
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:45,040
Speaker 2: that I got to say something hot, I think he's

1404
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,120
Speaker 2: problems for Canelo morrel.

1405
01:00:47,240 --> 01:00:48,920
Speaker 6: Okay, let me back up with stuff, because I think

1406
01:00:48,920 --> 01:00:52,960
Speaker 6: that's an interesting thing to say. Aside from resiliency, which

1407
01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:56,960
Speaker 6: he had inarguably, what else did you like for the performance?

1408
01:00:57,600 --> 01:01:00,240
Speaker 2: Because he didn't do what we thought he might, which

1409
01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,439
Speaker 2: was use his foot speed in some of that elusiveness

1410
01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 2: to avoid Benevidez. He came right at Benavidez, kind of

1411
01:01:07,280 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 2: backed up the words that he said, and he actually

1412
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:10,560
Speaker 2: in the first half of the fight was able to

1413
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:14,000
Speaker 2: hurt Benavidez stand close enough. I mean they're operating. That's

1414
01:01:14,000 --> 01:01:15,680
Speaker 2: such close difference for two of the guys. It was

1415
01:01:15,720 --> 01:01:18,880
Speaker 2: a beautiful fight to watch from ringside, the creativity and

1416
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:22,880
Speaker 2: explosiveness of his shots, the head movement, the baiting Benevidez

1417
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:25,880
Speaker 2: in and encountering him with big shots. Look, he's an

1418
01:01:25,920 --> 01:01:29,880
Speaker 2: offensive machine in there. He's a very good fighter. I

1419
01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:32,040
Speaker 2: think you know, Canelo has always had issues with people

1420
01:01:32,200 --> 01:01:34,080
Speaker 2: with handspeed and foot speed. I think you add in

1421
01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,160
Speaker 2: that power and I think he's bringing that explosiveness with

1422
01:01:37,240 --> 01:01:37,919
Speaker 2: him to seventy five.

1423
01:01:37,960 --> 01:01:38,960
Speaker 1: I was impressed, were you not?

1424
01:01:40,240 --> 01:01:42,480
Speaker 6: So I'll say this, I was absolutely impressed by him.

1425
01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,439
Speaker 6: But I'm going to say the following, and I really

1426
01:01:44,440 --> 01:01:46,040
Speaker 6: would know. I really I'm curious what you have to

1427
01:01:46,040 --> 01:01:48,280
Speaker 6: say about it, which is, if you had never seen

1428
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:51,600
Speaker 6: David Morrell before, you didn't really get.

1429
01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 1: The David Morrell experience.

1430
01:01:53,000 --> 01:01:55,200
Speaker 2: Now, no, I think he fought Benavidez's fight to a

1431
01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 2: fault to somebody.

1432
01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:58,320
Speaker 6: So we're not going to say is on one level

1433
01:01:58,440 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 6: that's actually a good thing because he never had to

1434
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:01,240
Speaker 6: show this kind of heart before.

1435
01:02:01,280 --> 01:02:02,920
Speaker 1: I didn't know if he had it. Yes, he's got it.

1436
01:02:02,920 --> 01:02:04,640
Speaker 1: He's got a chint too, he's got a chin. So

1437
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:07,320
Speaker 1: those are great things that we learned. But we had

1438
01:02:07,320 --> 01:02:08,720
Speaker 1: described him, and I do think if you look at

1439
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,520
Speaker 1: the body of work, this is fair. We had described

1440
01:02:10,600 --> 01:02:14,280
Speaker 1: him as a slick boxer puncher. Didn't get a lot

1441
01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:14,480
Speaker 1: of that.

1442
01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:16,440
Speaker 2: He didn't commit to that style, and that's the thing.

1443
01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 6: You can argue that was a big problem. And I

1444
01:02:18,720 --> 01:02:20,760
Speaker 6: think you're asking like That's why I was asking, like,

1445
01:02:20,760 --> 01:02:22,480
Speaker 6: what'd you like about it? Because if I wanted to

1446
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 6: show someone David Morell that that's not the fight I.

1447
01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:26,160
Speaker 1: Would show them.

1448
01:02:26,240 --> 01:02:27,520
Speaker 2: So let's say, and they're not going to do it,

1449
01:02:27,560 --> 01:02:29,480
Speaker 2: but let's say they had an immediate rematch. I think

1450
01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 2: Morell would box so much more. I think he tried

1451
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,400
Speaker 2: to back up everything he said. I think he tried

1452
01:02:35,400 --> 01:02:36,920
Speaker 2: to back up everything he said, and he tried to

1453
01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:39,280
Speaker 2: beat Morel Mono, I mono, I'm sorry, but tried to

1454
01:02:39,280 --> 01:02:41,640
Speaker 2: beat benevite'z heads a head and and not just in

1455
01:02:41,800 --> 01:02:44,360
Speaker 2: like a brawl, but like an explosive close range let's

1456
01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:46,720
Speaker 2: tit for tat. I think you would see him box more.

1457
01:02:46,720 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 2: I think you would see a better version of him

1458
01:02:48,240 --> 01:02:50,000
Speaker 2: if he mixed a little bit of that in. Now.

1459
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,520
Speaker 2: He went with what he played his cards, and he

1460
01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:55,640
Speaker 2: played far. So there's an argument it's weird. I thought

1461
01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:58,480
Speaker 2: it was. Scoring wise, I had an eight four. One

1462
01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:00,320
Speaker 2: of those judges had eleven to one. But you know,

1463
01:03:00,400 --> 01:03:02,840
Speaker 2: Dan Rayfield, guy who I respect a lot, had it wide.

1464
01:03:02,840 --> 01:03:05,720
Speaker 2: He said, look, it was a competitive, fun close fight,

1465
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,960
Speaker 2: but scoring wise, he had it very wide. Did you

1466
01:03:09,000 --> 01:03:09,640
Speaker 2: agree with that?

1467
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:12,120
Speaker 1: I did not have the scoring wide. No.

1468
01:03:13,040 --> 01:03:15,160
Speaker 2: Because there's arguments that people are trying to make online

1469
01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,680
Speaker 2: that Morrell rallied enough in the second half that it

1470
01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,000
Speaker 2: actually should have been a closer decision. I do kind

1471
01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:22,240
Speaker 2: of disagree. I thought eighty four. I thought eight four

1472
01:03:22,440 --> 01:03:23,000
Speaker 2: was solid.

1473
01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:24,880
Speaker 6: I could go eight four to seven five. I don't

1474
01:03:24,880 --> 01:03:26,800
Speaker 6: know if that's considered wide or not seven fives.

1475
01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 1: I don't know if as close as you can get.

1476
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:29,640
Speaker 1: So I don't know if eight.

1477
01:03:29,640 --> 01:03:32,720
Speaker 6: Four is considered wide. You know, two to one, I don't.

1478
01:03:32,760 --> 01:03:35,000
Speaker 6: I don't know how that goes. But I to me,

1479
01:03:35,400 --> 01:03:37,720
Speaker 6: it was not really a mystery who won at the end,

1480
01:03:37,720 --> 01:03:41,000
Speaker 6: And I think trying to find rounds for Morel is cope.

1481
01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:41,800
Speaker 1: It's cope.

1482
01:03:42,040 --> 01:03:44,080
Speaker 2: I'm with you on that. So here's the interesting thing.

1483
01:03:44,160 --> 01:03:47,800
Speaker 1: But you gotta tell me, okay, yes, Morel Canelo. I

1484
01:03:47,840 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 1: don't think Canlo's gonna go anywhere new.

1485
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:51,400
Speaker 2: I mean, it's interesting it's Canelo wasn't there his trainer,

1486
01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,080
Speaker 2: though Eddie Renoso was in the crowd. And although Eddie

1487
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:57,520
Speaker 2: just signed a big to train a big prospect. I

1488
01:03:57,560 --> 01:03:59,520
Speaker 2: think it's from Mexico, who's going to debut on the

1489
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:01,520
Speaker 2: PBC Tank pay per view coming up. That's like a big,

1490
01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,600
Speaker 2: a big get for Eddie. So I don't know if

1491
01:04:03,600 --> 01:04:05,680
Speaker 2: I had more to do with that, or maybe he's scouting.

1492
01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:08,880
Speaker 2: But it's interesting we didn't talk a lot about Canelo

1493
01:04:08,920 --> 01:04:11,200
Speaker 2: coming in. I didn't even ask Benefitez about Caneal afterst

1494
01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 2: because this isn't about Knelo. Canelo's at sixty eight. He

1495
01:04:13,280 --> 01:04:15,760
Speaker 2: doesn't want to fight these guys. I think Morel would

1496
01:04:15,760 --> 01:04:17,720
Speaker 2: be an issue for him to really do. I thought,

1497
01:04:17,800 --> 01:04:20,200
Speaker 2: even though we critiquing some of the parts of Morel's game,

1498
01:04:20,360 --> 01:04:22,040
Speaker 2: I thought the poise he showed in a tough fight

1499
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:24,480
Speaker 2: at the highest level not giving up was key. The backbone,

1500
01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:28,320
Speaker 2: the all that he can move dynamically, he's with the

1501
01:04:28,360 --> 01:04:30,720
Speaker 2: foot and hand speed, and you add in that he's

1502
01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:34,880
Speaker 2: a big dude with power and explosiveness. This version of Canal,

1503
01:04:34,920 --> 01:04:36,160
Speaker 2: I don't think he wants to fight guys like this.

1504
01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:37,760
Speaker 2: I don't think he wants this type of smunk.

1505
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:38,120
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1506
01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:41,520
Speaker 6: I mean, I do think it would be competitive between

1507
01:04:41,520 --> 01:04:44,560
Speaker 6: Morel and Canelo. But I think that people who watch

1508
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:46,160
Speaker 6: this fight, that's what I mean, they don't didn't quite

1509
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:50,120
Speaker 6: get a sense of how slick and deft and clever

1510
01:04:50,280 --> 01:04:52,440
Speaker 6: he can be as a puncher. And I think against

1511
01:04:52,440 --> 01:04:55,040
Speaker 6: a more stationary Canelo who's he'll walk you down, but

1512
01:04:55,160 --> 01:05:00,480
Speaker 6: he's a lot more trunk movement based. I'm morel feast.

1513
01:05:00,680 --> 01:05:01,800
Speaker 6: All right, that's a strong word.

1514
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:04,320
Speaker 2: But I don't know, no, no, I mean, Benevitez said

1515
01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:05,880
Speaker 2: he would not go down to sixty eight ever. Again,

1516
01:05:05,920 --> 01:05:07,240
Speaker 2: he said this before the fight. He said, even if

1517
01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:10,000
Speaker 2: Cannelo asked him. By the way benefite Is revealed, I

1518
01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:11,480
Speaker 2: don't know if I don't know if you saw this

1519
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:15,800
Speaker 2: podcast that I think was last year, he revealed that

1520
01:05:15,880 --> 01:05:19,200
Speaker 2: Al Hayman presented Canelo with a guaranteed sixty million dollar

1521
01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 2: offer to fight Benavidez, a sixty eight plus getting huge

1522
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:24,840
Speaker 2: pay per view upside, and Benavitez was only going to

1523
01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 2: get five million and he was going to only take

1524
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 2: home like three and a half of that after paying

1525
01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:31,480
Speaker 2: everybody pre tax. And Benavidez still said yes, and Canelo

1526
01:05:31,520 --> 01:05:34,800
Speaker 2: said no. So that's very interesting. But Beneviez is like,

1527
01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:36,880
Speaker 2: I'm not going down to sixty eight even if Canelo

1528
01:05:36,920 --> 01:05:38,880
Speaker 2: wants to do anymore. If they fought at one seventy

1529
01:05:38,920 --> 01:05:41,120
Speaker 2: five tomorrow, Canelo Benavidez.

1530
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:41,160
Speaker 1: What does it look like?

1531
01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 2: What happens? Because Canelo did not look bad against bev

1532
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:48,000
Speaker 2: at seventy five, but he got overwhelmed by a.

1533
01:05:48,080 --> 01:05:48,800
Speaker 1: I don't think.

1534
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:51,440
Speaker 6: I don't think Benavidez stops him. I think Canelo's chin

1535
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:54,920
Speaker 6: is legendary. He is crafty. He would find ways to survive.

1536
01:05:55,120 --> 01:05:56,600
Speaker 2: But would he can't get him off of him.

1537
01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:58,960
Speaker 1: He couldn't get Benavidez off of him. People thinking like

1538
01:05:58,960 --> 01:06:01,959
Speaker 1: Canelo's power would discipline him, and I am very, very

1539
01:06:02,080 --> 01:06:04,600
Speaker 1: suspect about that. I think I think you look at

1540
01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 1: a fight like Saturday, Benavidez doesn't stop him, Canel is

1541
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:10,880
Speaker 1: going to be really hard to stop. He's gonna beat

1542
01:06:10,920 --> 01:06:12,280
Speaker 1: him up. I think he's gonna beat him up like

1543
01:06:12,280 --> 01:06:14,000
Speaker 1: bival You know BiVO did it in a different way. Yeah.

1544
01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,480
Speaker 6: I remember there's times where Bivoll was like landing and then

1545
01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 6: kept landing and.

1546
01:06:17,240 --> 01:06:19,360
Speaker 1: They're like, okay, we'll stop now, and then he kept landing.

1547
01:06:19,360 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 2: Canell will tried that rope it up against Bevon. He's

1548
01:06:21,480 --> 01:06:22,040
Speaker 2: just got little.

1549
01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:23,720
Speaker 1: I think I think Benavidez would have him up on

1550
01:06:23,760 --> 01:06:25,400
Speaker 1: the ropes. I think you fuck him up.

1551
01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:28,080
Speaker 2: Interesting stuff. So here's what's also interesting. So this makes

1552
01:06:28,080 --> 01:06:30,200
Speaker 2: now Benavidez the mandatory, like we said to face the

1553
01:06:30,240 --> 01:06:34,400
Speaker 2: winner of better ba Bevall two. But Luke, you could

1554
01:06:34,520 --> 01:06:37,280
Speaker 2: argue that with everything going on Saudy wise and boxing,

1555
01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:39,560
Speaker 2: which is a lot, it's almost they're almost taking overall

1556
01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:42,360
Speaker 2: of boxing, and to a certain degree that we talk

1557
01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:44,200
Speaker 2: a lot about, Well, what about the North American market,

1558
01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:46,520
Speaker 2: what about the US? What about Las Vegas? I mean,

1559
01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:48,959
Speaker 2: Benevide's planting his flag back in Las Vegas this weekend

1560
01:06:48,960 --> 01:06:51,520
Speaker 2: and getting twelve granded T mobile is not a small thing.

1561
01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 2: I felt like this was a big win for like

1562
01:06:54,560 --> 01:06:58,200
Speaker 2: American boxing to some degree. And then Benavita says this

1563
01:06:58,320 --> 01:07:02,080
Speaker 2: afterwards about the idea of fighting in Saudi compared to Vegas.

1564
01:07:02,120 --> 01:07:04,640
Speaker 10: You know, to be honest with you, that's the one

1565
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:07,680
Speaker 10: thing they talk about, like Turkey Ala sheet and they

1566
01:07:07,760 --> 01:07:10,440
Speaker 10: tell you what you ever fight with with him with

1567
01:07:10,480 --> 01:07:12,280
Speaker 10: them over there in Rio. But at the end of

1568
01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:15,200
Speaker 10: the day, on my fan base is here in Las Vegas.

1569
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:16,440
Speaker 10: I'm a Las Vegas fighter, you know.

1570
01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:16,800
Speaker 1: What I mean.

1571
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:18,640
Speaker 10: I would love to go over there and fight, but

1572
01:07:19,240 --> 01:07:21,000
Speaker 10: this is my market right here, and I feel like

1573
01:07:21,040 --> 01:07:21,760
Speaker 10: we're doing really well.

1574
01:07:21,800 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 1: We just sold out Timo Marina.

1575
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:25,680
Speaker 11: You know, I mean, listen to one of my dream

1576
01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:26,600
Speaker 11: come true to you.

1577
01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:29,240
Speaker 10: Know what I mean, and I just want to I

1578
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:31,240
Speaker 10: want to take advantage of this market because I've been

1579
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:34,680
Speaker 10: I've worked eleven years to this is my first time

1580
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:37,000
Speaker 10: having a freaking crowd like that, so I just I

1581
01:07:37,040 --> 01:07:37,680
Speaker 10: want to stay here.

1582
01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:44,440
Speaker 1: Also would say that American Boxing os David Benavidez such

1583
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,320
Speaker 1: a fucking set of gratitude.

1584
01:07:46,360 --> 01:07:48,640
Speaker 6: Yes, do you know who's saying this? Over the weekend

1585
01:07:48,760 --> 01:07:50,640
Speaker 6: he said something something different. Who's the guy that got

1586
01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:51,720
Speaker 6: sideways with Turkey for a bit?

1587
01:07:51,760 --> 01:07:55,240
Speaker 1: The reporter? Uh, Jake Donovan. Jake Donovan. I mean, I

1588
01:07:55,240 --> 01:07:57,840
Speaker 1: know they patched it, but that and Jake was like, dude,

1589
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 1: American boxing needed tonight back.

1590
01:08:00,600 --> 01:08:03,080
Speaker 2: Yes, it did, it did, and it was great to

1591
01:08:03,080 --> 01:08:05,520
Speaker 2: see separate from my involvement on there, and you know,

1592
01:08:05,520 --> 01:08:07,160
Speaker 2: it was great to see PBC come back and have

1593
01:08:07,240 --> 01:08:09,800
Speaker 2: a great night like that. But those are interesting comments.

1594
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,680
Speaker 2: Does that in your eyes? Because Benavidez and other interviews

1595
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:14,439
Speaker 2: this week said, look, I made a lot of money

1596
01:08:14,480 --> 01:08:16,080
Speaker 2: the last nine years. But he's also trying to say

1597
01:08:16,080 --> 01:08:18,400
Speaker 2: it's not just about the money, like he was willing

1598
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:20,960
Speaker 2: to take small money against Canelo, very small just to

1599
01:08:21,000 --> 01:08:23,880
Speaker 2: get that on his resume because he wants to be great.

1600
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:26,519
Speaker 2: Did his voice at all tell you that he may

1601
01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:29,280
Speaker 2: turn down an opportunity to go to Saudium face the winner.

1602
01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:31,680
Speaker 1: I believe that if the money is enough and the

1603
01:08:31,680 --> 01:08:34,440
Speaker 1: opponent is right, that any boxer would sell their services

1604
01:08:34,479 --> 01:08:37,520
Speaker 1: to the Southeast. I think it's important to really.

1605
01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:39,200
Speaker 2: Understand, and he has said in the past that he'd

1606
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:40,320
Speaker 2: be willing to work with yes with it.

1607
01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:43,840
Speaker 6: It didn't sound to me like he was precluding the opportunity.

1608
01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:45,880
Speaker 6: He was just saying it wasn't super interesting to him

1609
01:08:45,880 --> 01:08:47,880
Speaker 6: at the present moment. But you know, let's be clear,

1610
01:08:48,600 --> 01:08:50,640
Speaker 6: it could obviously happen at some point. But what I

1611
01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:55,639
Speaker 6: will say is I think that the guys I think

1612
01:08:55,760 --> 01:08:59,240
Speaker 6: maybe I'm making an over generalization here, but the Mexican

1613
01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:03,080
Speaker 6: fighters in this country who either from here or second

1614
01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:06,639
Speaker 6: generation or Canelo comes here, whatever, who take their Mexican

1615
01:09:07,040 --> 01:09:12,280
Speaker 6: boxing fans seriously. Yeah, they they have a bond with

1616
01:09:12,360 --> 01:09:16,000
Speaker 6: them that makes them internally say I have to be here,

1617
01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:17,799
Speaker 6: present in front of them.

1618
01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:19,280
Speaker 2: And they travel from Mexico to Vegas.

1619
01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:21,800
Speaker 6: Travel it's not enough to be like, Okay, I could

1620
01:09:21,840 --> 01:09:23,920
Speaker 6: make you know, I'll make something up fifty one hundred

1621
01:09:23,920 --> 01:09:25,519
Speaker 6: million dollars fighting in Riod.

1622
01:09:25,720 --> 01:09:27,559
Speaker 1: It didn't sound to me like they've been a Vetez

1623
01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:29,040
Speaker 1: was poop pulling the notion of that.

1624
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, but it did sound to me like he took

1625
01:09:31,320 --> 01:09:34,559
Speaker 6: the idea that he has a responsibility to American boxing,

1626
01:09:34,760 --> 01:09:38,960
Speaker 6: to his Mexican or Latino fans, fans more generally based here,

1627
01:09:39,800 --> 01:09:43,559
Speaker 6: and that can that relationship can only be fulfilled from

1628
01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:46,720
Speaker 6: his end by competing here. A lot of guys are

1629
01:09:46,800 --> 01:09:48,880
Speaker 6: just like, fuck it, I'll just compete wherever. And I

1630
01:09:48,960 --> 01:09:51,439
Speaker 6: understand that too. Boxing short get money while you can,

1631
01:09:51,560 --> 01:09:54,840
Speaker 6: I get it. But when you've got when you've got

1632
01:09:55,240 --> 01:09:57,800
Speaker 6: time on your side, when you've got the sport on

1633
01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:00,400
Speaker 6: your side, when you've got the fans on your side,

1634
01:10:00,840 --> 01:10:04,360
Speaker 6: it is a different calculation. And honestly, he's not the

1635
01:10:04,400 --> 01:10:06,000
Speaker 6: only one making it in a way does it in

1636
01:10:06,080 --> 01:10:09,599
Speaker 6: Japan all the fucking time. Yeah, But of course he'll

1637
01:10:09,600 --> 01:10:11,599
Speaker 6: compete here this year as well, so we could see

1638
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:14,920
Speaker 6: Benavidez on the road. But I really can't say it enough.

1639
01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:18,280
Speaker 6: Guys like him, Guys like Tank Davis, also Canelo Alvarez

1640
01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:21,600
Speaker 6: an American guy, but obviously competing here, they're doing a

1641
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:24,000
Speaker 6: lot for the market in ways that nobody else is

1642
01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:26,520
Speaker 6: we have to be grateful for that if you're an American.

1643
01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:28,680
Speaker 2: And all, by the way, it wasn't picked up a lot.

1644
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,439
Speaker 2: But Benavidez did say last week that he's also not

1645
01:10:31,479 --> 01:10:34,320
Speaker 2: against the idea of moving up to cruiserweight and challenging

1646
01:10:34,400 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 2: Zerto Ramerez, a Mexican national, for a title there.

1647
01:10:38,280 --> 01:10:40,200
Speaker 1: It's interesting, which is a power issue I think is

1648
01:10:40,200 --> 01:10:40,880
Speaker 1: going to be real.

1649
01:10:41,240 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 2: Well, Zerto's a blown up, you know, sixty eight to

1650
01:10:43,200 --> 01:10:45,320
Speaker 2: seventy five. It's just that Zerto looks the best at cruiserweight,

1651
01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:47,840
Speaker 2: a venue division, maybe because he brings that speed with him.

1652
01:10:47,840 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 2: But so with Benavitez, that's an interesting thought. Obviously as

1653
01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:52,479
Speaker 2: a fan, you want him now to face the winner

1654
01:10:52,520 --> 01:10:53,320
Speaker 2: of better people.

1655
01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:55,760
Speaker 1: You want it, you know, I no other fun.

1656
01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:57,479
Speaker 6: I mean, Canelo is in the rear view for me

1657
01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:01,919
Speaker 6: of the Benavidez experience, and honestly, just say it out loud.

1658
01:11:02,240 --> 01:11:06,120
Speaker 6: A Benavidez versus Canelo fight is bigger and might be

1659
01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:10,960
Speaker 6: fun in different ways, but a better fight is Benavidez

1660
01:11:11,240 --> 01:11:12,920
Speaker 6: vil or Benevitez better be.

1661
01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:14,880
Speaker 2: Of I would agree with that, especially when you consider

1662
01:11:14,880 --> 01:11:18,160
Speaker 2: Benevidez claims he he has dropped in her vall insparring.

1663
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:20,920
Speaker 1: That's those are the fights to make.

1664
01:11:21,200 --> 01:11:24,000
Speaker 2: Those are the one final thing. Did you did you

1665
01:11:24,040 --> 01:11:28,080
Speaker 2: see the pre fight press conference when Morell's advisor h

1666
01:11:28,280 --> 01:11:30,559
Speaker 2: Louis to keep a senior, which is interesting because Louis

1667
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:36,000
Speaker 2: Junior is an advisor for Ben Louis. Both they they

1668
01:11:36,000 --> 01:11:38,599
Speaker 2: had like crazy words at the press conference before the fight,

1669
01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:41,639
Speaker 2: which was surprising where where where Senior was like you're

1670
01:11:41,640 --> 01:11:43,360
Speaker 2: gonna get knocked out, blah blah blah, and he was

1671
01:11:43,479 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 2: very animated ringside he sat behind us the announcing, but

1672
01:11:46,200 --> 01:11:48,800
Speaker 2: they had more at the postfight. Preser watched this. It

1673
01:11:48,880 --> 01:11:52,840
Speaker 2: was wild.

1674
01:11:55,080 --> 01:12:08,599
Speaker 1: I wish I could.

1675
01:12:10,160 --> 01:12:16,320
Speaker 11: I wish both of you.

1676
01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:19,799
Speaker 1: I'm gonna.

1677
01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:31,439
Speaker 2: So what was interest? They ejected him from that press conference.

1678
01:12:31,439 --> 01:12:33,240
Speaker 2: And what was interesting is right before that, Benevitez and

1679
01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:36,040
Speaker 2: Morel like we're friendly. They took pictures together. Benevie Is

1680
01:12:36,040 --> 01:12:38,760
Speaker 2: actually gave the title belt back to Morrell because you know,

1681
01:12:38,920 --> 01:12:40,320
Speaker 2: you take his belt, but then you give it back

1682
01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:42,000
Speaker 2: and you get mailed a new one. And they were

1683
01:12:42,040 --> 01:12:44,880
Speaker 2: real nice. But then Senior really took umbrage about the

1684
01:12:44,880 --> 01:12:47,120
Speaker 2: comments about him taking money out of Morel's check and

1685
01:12:48,080 --> 01:12:50,439
Speaker 2: Benfiel is like, I'll slap you right now, but the

1686
01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:52,280
Speaker 2: old man said bring it. That was that was kind

1687
01:12:52,280 --> 01:12:55,879
Speaker 2: of wild. You don't see that's often boxing, bro boxing

1688
01:12:56,280 --> 01:12:57,719
Speaker 2: boxing is wild.

1689
01:12:57,760 --> 01:12:58,040
Speaker 1: All right.

1690
01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:00,439
Speaker 2: Let's go to topic number four, which was hey loaded

1691
01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:03,479
Speaker 2: undercard and one that ultimately delivered in that Cole main event.

1692
01:13:03,720 --> 01:13:05,360
Speaker 2: Even though it was a rematch of the twenty twenty

1693
01:13:05,360 --> 01:13:07,200
Speaker 2: one fight of the Year, and even though it didn't

1694
01:13:07,200 --> 01:13:10,719
Speaker 2: necessarily live up to the action expectations, which is probably

1695
01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:12,639
Speaker 2: why the crowd booed at times in the second half,

1696
01:13:13,040 --> 01:13:16,760
Speaker 2: it lived up to the storyline expectations because boxing had

1697
01:13:16,800 --> 01:13:19,880
Speaker 2: effectively counted out former Unified one hundred and twenty two

1698
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:23,639
Speaker 2: champion and Palm for pound top tenor Stephen Fulton Junior,

1699
01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:26,800
Speaker 2: and when he entered this rematch with Figaroa, I mean

1700
01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:29,599
Speaker 2: I saw everyone picking Figaroa by late stoppage. In the end, Luke,

1701
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:33,120
Speaker 2: it goes down as a redemptive unanimous decision win as

1702
01:13:33,200 --> 01:13:36,280
Speaker 2: Fulton turned Figaroa, who had twenty six had looked like

1703
01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:39,720
Speaker 2: more of a refined puncher than spamming offensive force. He

1704
01:13:39,760 --> 01:13:43,240
Speaker 2: turned him back into that version. He also did crazy

1705
01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:45,240
Speaker 2: style things that will get to a second but Luke,

1706
01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:50,160
Speaker 2: considering how badly that boxing, Twitter basically said Fulton's washed

1707
01:13:50,160 --> 01:13:53,679
Speaker 2: at thirty one, and reportedly even members of Fulton's inner

1708
01:13:53,720 --> 01:13:57,479
Speaker 2: circle pulled out after the Annua loss. How big of

1709
01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:59,800
Speaker 2: a statement did he make in his first fight with

1710
01:13:59,880 --> 01:14:03,360
Speaker 2: new trainer Bozyannas to go in there and disarm Figure

1711
01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:04,040
Speaker 2: oa of the way.

1712
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:06,400
Speaker 1: That he did blown away?

1713
01:14:07,200 --> 01:14:09,200
Speaker 6: I thought after the Castro fight, which was the one

1714
01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:11,360
Speaker 6: he took after the inn Way fight where he looked

1715
01:14:11,360 --> 01:14:12,479
Speaker 6: like he got dropped.

1716
01:14:12,479 --> 01:14:13,120
Speaker 1: He got dropped.

1717
01:14:13,120 --> 01:14:15,519
Speaker 6: It was on a prelim card, you thought, okay, in

1718
01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:17,160
Speaker 6: a way destroyed this guy.

1719
01:14:17,120 --> 01:14:19,240
Speaker 2: And Figure had knocked Castro out in his feather way.

1720
01:14:19,320 --> 01:14:21,519
Speaker 6: David right, I mean you just thought, wow, this is

1721
01:14:21,840 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 6: this is terrible. This has really gone off the rails.

1722
01:14:24,479 --> 01:14:27,559
Speaker 6: And then he shows up ahead of time wearing jeans

1723
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,160
Speaker 6: and modified tims, and I'm like, by the way, an

1724
01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 6: epic look, if ever there was one.

1725
01:14:31,760 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 2: We'll get to. Yeah, okay, so here it is right here,

1726
01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:35,479
Speaker 2: by the way.

1727
01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:37,360
Speaker 1: People think those are real tims. I actually zoomed in

1728
01:14:37,400 --> 01:14:38,479
Speaker 1: on it their designer boxing.

1729
01:14:38,560 --> 01:14:41,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Joran Plant reported on it during the show, But dude,

1730
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:43,560
Speaker 2: he had so he's now going full time with the

1731
01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:45,479
Speaker 2: name Scooter. He showed up on a scooter at the

1732
01:14:45,479 --> 01:14:48,160
Speaker 2: wig Ins, but he was speaking monotone all week. We

1733
01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:49,519
Speaker 2: didn't expect any of.

1734
01:14:49,400 --> 01:14:51,679
Speaker 6: This, and then he came out with the mouthpiece that said,

1735
01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:52,400
Speaker 6: fuck you want it?

1736
01:14:52,560 --> 01:14:53,040
Speaker 2: Can we see that?

1737
01:14:53,040 --> 01:14:53,200
Speaker 4: Long?

1738
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:53,840
Speaker 1: Aw? I go look at this?

1739
01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:56,840
Speaker 6: Yeah, look at that? Bro he I gotta say. The

1740
01:14:56,880 --> 01:15:00,439
Speaker 6: reason why I found this so interesting was because it

1741
01:15:00,479 --> 01:15:02,439
Speaker 6: looked to me like he knew that the world had

1742
01:15:02,479 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 6: counted him out, and he refused to give in to

1743
01:15:05,320 --> 01:15:10,640
Speaker 6: the narrative. And honestly, people were disappointed in this fight relative.

1744
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:11,880
Speaker 1: To the first one. The first one was a Fighter

1745
01:15:11,840 --> 01:15:13,519
Speaker 1: of the Year contender and winter in certain ways.

1746
01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:15,320
Speaker 2: The second one was still exciting and the crowd was

1747
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:17,960
Speaker 2: booing this, but the high.

1748
01:15:18,360 --> 01:15:20,760
Speaker 6: It was high paced it and it looked like the

1749
01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:22,320
Speaker 6: first one by the time it got to the end,

1750
01:15:22,360 --> 01:15:25,040
Speaker 6: with Figaroa just kind of smothering everything. But the reason

1751
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:27,200
Speaker 6: why this fight was not as good as the first

1752
01:15:27,240 --> 01:15:31,880
Speaker 6: one is because Fulton made changes to the way he fought.

1753
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:36,080
Speaker 6: Put Figaroa at distance certainly through the first four rounds

1754
01:15:36,160 --> 01:15:38,800
Speaker 6: and then pretty continuously in spots through the rest of

1755
01:15:38,840 --> 01:15:41,559
Speaker 6: the fight, clinched when he needed to fought well on

1756
01:15:41,600 --> 01:15:44,400
Speaker 6: the inside when he needed to. Figaroa seemed to at

1757
01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:46,160
Speaker 6: the end of the fight go show us the thing

1758
01:15:46,200 --> 01:15:49,080
Speaker 6: with his mouthpiece again. Look at this photo. This is

1759
01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:51,280
Speaker 6: close to the end of the fight. There's mary A

1760
01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:54,440
Speaker 6: mark on his face and Figuaroa.

1761
01:15:53,720 --> 01:15:56,360
Speaker 2: Was all He turned Figurea into a spammer. He wasn't

1762
01:15:56,400 --> 01:15:58,080
Speaker 2: sitting down on his punches because he couldn't.

1763
01:15:57,840 --> 01:16:01,679
Speaker 1: Land any He couldn't land anything, dude. This was great

1764
01:16:01,760 --> 01:16:02,360
Speaker 1: by Fulton.

1765
01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:04,559
Speaker 6: This is why I don't think people were picking Fulton

1766
01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:06,639
Speaker 6: to beat in a way. But he was in pound

1767
01:16:06,640 --> 01:16:09,360
Speaker 6: for pound discussions heading into the Naa fight and that

1768
01:16:09,439 --> 01:16:12,200
Speaker 6: all collapsed. I'm not saying this brings him back BC,

1769
01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:14,439
Speaker 6: but it does bring him back from the place that

1770
01:16:14,479 --> 01:16:17,439
Speaker 6: he was, which was being considered a bust and a washout.

1771
01:16:17,720 --> 01:16:20,280
Speaker 6: He is now a champion up a weight class. Holy

1772
01:16:20,320 --> 01:16:23,439
Speaker 6: fucking shit. This was big for the kiss.

1773
01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:25,120
Speaker 2: From Villas see and I thought he was gonna dunk

1774
01:16:25,160 --> 01:16:27,519
Speaker 2: on people more. But he's very humble afterwards, and you

1775
01:16:27,560 --> 01:16:29,639
Speaker 2: see the hard work he put in. The Bozy factor.

1776
01:16:29,680 --> 01:16:31,479
Speaker 2: He didn't replace his trainer. He still has his dad

1777
01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:33,920
Speaker 2: in there in the original team, but they added Bozie

1778
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:35,760
Speaker 2: and you saw the difference, Luke, there was much more

1779
01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:39,559
Speaker 2: class countering so stiffly against Figureo, which was a big

1780
01:16:39,600 --> 01:16:42,000
Speaker 2: part of the success Fulton had early in rounds the

1781
01:16:42,040 --> 01:16:43,240
Speaker 2: first time. But you know what may have been the

1782
01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:46,360
Speaker 2: underreported the difference, Luke Fulton told the sister in the

1783
01:16:46,360 --> 01:16:48,599
Speaker 2: fighter meetings, he said his weight cut to one twenty

1784
01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:50,479
Speaker 2: two was so hard in the first figureo A fight

1785
01:16:50,680 --> 01:16:52,680
Speaker 2: that he didn't have the energy to fight for all

1786
01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:54,920
Speaker 2: three minutes of each round that he had to quote

1787
01:16:55,080 --> 01:16:57,040
Speaker 2: gut gangs. I think he said ghetto it out or

1788
01:16:57,080 --> 01:16:59,800
Speaker 2: gangster it out in terms of just biting down and

1789
01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,200
Speaker 2: that also I think that fight was an action fight

1790
01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,720
Speaker 2: and tricked us. Maybe that's true, although it was also

1791
01:17:04,720 --> 01:17:07,080
Speaker 2: obviously a hard cut to twenty two for Figaroa, but

1792
01:17:07,400 --> 01:17:10,479
Speaker 2: fully fully formed at twenty six. He not only had

1793
01:17:10,520 --> 01:17:13,360
Speaker 2: the better gas ticket, seemed he was physically moving Figaroa

1794
01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,880
Speaker 2: around in the clinch too. He was not allowing himself

1795
01:17:15,880 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 2: to get.

1796
01:17:16,120 --> 01:17:17,400
Speaker 1: Over them off constantly.

1797
01:17:17,439 --> 01:17:19,479
Speaker 6: Now again that kind of faded the longer the fight wind,

1798
01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:24,360
Speaker 6: but he did it long enough, often enough and successfully enough.

1799
01:17:24,640 --> 01:17:29,280
Speaker 6: Where Figaroa was Figaroa had no real meaningful adjustments at all,

1800
01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:31,840
Speaker 6: it was only Fulton who had the adjustments, and he

1801
01:17:31,960 --> 01:17:34,000
Speaker 6: was the clear winner in my mind when he was

1802
01:17:34,000 --> 01:17:34,759
Speaker 6: wearing georts.

1803
01:17:35,479 --> 01:17:38,760
Speaker 1: Wearing fucking George that's insane. Actually, don't I don't even

1804
01:17:38,760 --> 01:17:40,880
Speaker 1: think they were georts. I think they even looked like Geords.

1805
01:17:41,320 --> 01:17:42,360
Speaker 1: What do they look like up clothes?

1806
01:17:42,640 --> 01:17:44,200
Speaker 2: They looked I mean, he's.

1807
01:17:44,120 --> 01:17:46,120
Speaker 6: Got they're torn at the bottom, but at the top

1808
01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:48,040
Speaker 6: it's like a it's like an elastic waistband.

1809
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:51,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, so ultimately they are boxing shorts. They're customized, obviously,

1810
01:17:51,720 --> 01:17:54,000
Speaker 2: but they look very downim georts.

1811
01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:54,320
Speaker 1: In person.

1812
01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:56,280
Speaker 2: It looks like when I was a kid, it was

1813
01:17:56,280 --> 01:17:58,519
Speaker 2: a total eighties thing. My dad would always get thrown

1814
01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:00,639
Speaker 2: out of water parks or told he had to because

1815
01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:03,040
Speaker 2: he never owned a pair of swim trunks. He would

1816
01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:04,880
Speaker 2: just take jeans and cut him off at the at

1817
01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:07,120
Speaker 2: the thigh right and they'd be like the pocket hanging out,

1818
01:18:07,280 --> 01:18:09,759
Speaker 2: but they got like those buckles on it that scrape

1819
01:18:09,800 --> 01:18:12,200
Speaker 2: against the water slides, you know what I mean. He

1820
01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:13,840
Speaker 2: kind of looked like my dad in nineteen eighth year.

1821
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:15,400
Speaker 2: All he needed was like a cigarettes rolled up in

1822
01:18:15,400 --> 01:18:16,280
Speaker 2: his T shirt right there.

1823
01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:20,160
Speaker 6: I mean, I know that tims are very popular in Philly,

1824
01:18:20,800 --> 01:18:22,840
Speaker 6: but I've kind of always associated TIMS with like New

1825
01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:23,400
Speaker 6: York City.

1826
01:18:23,960 --> 01:18:25,920
Speaker 2: That's fair enough, just be an East Coast thing.

1827
01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:29,000
Speaker 1: TIMS are not that big in DC. They're big, but

1828
01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:29,559
Speaker 1: they're not that big.

1829
01:18:29,640 --> 01:18:31,519
Speaker 2: Well, maybe part of why the crowd was booing because

1830
01:18:31,760 --> 01:18:33,880
Speaker 2: how could they top what we saw in the second

1831
01:18:33,880 --> 01:18:35,599
Speaker 2: fight of the four fight pay per view card, and

1832
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:38,840
Speaker 2: that was Pitbull Cruise looking to bounce back from that

1833
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:41,920
Speaker 2: loss in the one forty title bout. Dose Valezuela coming

1834
01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:44,320
Speaker 2: back in the same division. And I told you guys

1835
01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:47,679
Speaker 2: that this guy was a live dog on Hell. Fiero

1836
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:51,000
Speaker 2: of Tijuana, Mexico, who I had seen on Ring City

1837
01:18:51,040 --> 01:18:53,320
Speaker 2: a few years back, coming on six days notice, get

1838
01:18:53,360 --> 01:18:57,080
Speaker 2: dropped twice, get up and knock out former champion Alberto Machado.

1839
01:18:57,439 --> 01:18:57,599
Speaker 1: Luke.

1840
01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:02,080
Speaker 2: Thomas Fiero turned in a performance that was worthy of

1841
01:19:02,120 --> 01:19:04,320
Speaker 2: the hype that this fight got, meaning that the WBC

1842
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:08,799
Speaker 2: created a special commemorative like Mexican All Action Brawl title.

1843
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:11,400
Speaker 2: They had the family of the late Israel Vasquez coming

1844
01:19:11,439 --> 01:19:14,160
Speaker 2: and present that belt. It was everyone's talking about twenty

1845
01:19:14,160 --> 01:19:18,280
Speaker 2: fifth anniversary of Morales Berrera. Luke, these two came in

1846
01:19:18,360 --> 01:19:21,599
Speaker 2: and poured the damn jug out from like the opening

1847
01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:25,080
Speaker 2: bell gave us twelve incredible rounds of action. Cruz wins

1848
01:19:25,120 --> 01:19:28,559
Speaker 2: a close decision. I did see some narrative out there

1849
01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:32,439
Speaker 2: that Fierro may have exposed Cruise the limitations of his

1850
01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:35,800
Speaker 2: offensive game. Is it that true? Or is this more

1851
01:19:35,800 --> 01:19:39,639
Speaker 2: about pit Bull maybe having won forty limitations as opposed

1852
01:19:39,640 --> 01:19:41,000
Speaker 2: to maybe thirty five, which is a better.

1853
01:19:40,840 --> 01:19:46,160
Speaker 6: Way class I think Pitpull has stylistic limitations, but Fierro

1854
01:19:46,439 --> 01:19:49,360
Speaker 6: just looked to me ungodly tough. I mean, there were

1855
01:19:49,439 --> 01:19:52,240
Speaker 6: times like Bull's got a piple can crack. Yeah, like

1856
01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:53,280
Speaker 6: Tanks even said.

1857
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:55,200
Speaker 2: There were some early right hands where Fierro was rotten.

1858
01:19:55,240 --> 01:19:55,439
Speaker 1: Dude.

1859
01:19:55,439 --> 01:19:58,400
Speaker 6: There were times fuck the first few rounds throughout all

1860
01:19:58,840 --> 01:20:01,800
Speaker 6: was it ten or twelve whatever it was? Yeah, maybe

1861
01:20:01,840 --> 01:20:04,080
Speaker 6: there were times when Fierro was getting cracked and I

1862
01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:07,040
Speaker 6: was like, surely he's going to stumble here, and he

1863
01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:10,639
Speaker 6: just kept pressing on, and I was like, Okay, this

1864
01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:13,400
Speaker 6: is an unusual level of toughness, Ryo. I thought beating

1865
01:20:13,439 --> 01:20:17,040
Speaker 6: with toughness and skill. Obviously Pitbull got his hand raised here.

1866
01:20:17,040 --> 01:20:18,280
Speaker 6: But what I'm trying to point out was I thought

1867
01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:21,120
Speaker 6: Fierro made it very competitive in certain way, but he

1868
01:20:21,120 --> 01:20:22,960
Speaker 6: didn't do it with as much skill. So what I'm

1869
01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:25,439
Speaker 6: gonna say is, it's not like I have a huge

1870
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:27,760
Speaker 6: change in opinion on what Pitbull can and can't do.

1871
01:20:27,840 --> 01:20:31,400
Speaker 6: It does to me seem some weight class dependent but

1872
01:20:31,439 --> 01:20:37,200
Speaker 6: really opponent dependent. But I just thought what Fierro was

1873
01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:39,800
Speaker 6: able to do and withstanding it. I'm telling you, I

1874
01:20:39,840 --> 01:20:41,320
Speaker 6: was watching with my wife and I was like, Okay,

1875
01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:42,960
Speaker 6: he's gonna fall here, and he just kept going, Oh,

1876
01:20:43,000 --> 01:20:44,880
Speaker 6: he's gonna fall here, He's gonna fall here, and he

1877
01:20:45,040 --> 01:20:47,360
Speaker 6: just kept going and then putting it on cruise at

1878
01:20:47,360 --> 01:20:48,519
Speaker 6: certain points and turning the tide.

1879
01:20:48,680 --> 01:20:51,599
Speaker 2: Certainly three and nine are Round of the Year contenders, Yes,

1880
01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:55,599
Speaker 2: they were just Round three was mayhem, Yes, yes, yes,

1881
01:20:56,080 --> 01:20:58,160
Speaker 2: So let's show the love you don't I think with

1882
01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:00,080
Speaker 2: the audio, But here's Fierro walking out. So this this

1883
01:21:00,240 --> 01:21:04,320
Speaker 2: was a dominant Cruiz Mexican crowd. Obviously Fierro's from Mexico too,

1884
01:21:04,360 --> 01:21:07,040
Speaker 2: but they gave him so much love on the way out.

1885
01:21:07,280 --> 01:21:07,519
Speaker 1: Luke.

1886
01:21:07,720 --> 01:21:11,479
Speaker 2: To be honest, Fierro was considered more of a journeyman

1887
01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:14,120
Speaker 2: type coming in, but a plus journeyman because he's got

1888
01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:15,960
Speaker 2: balls and he doesn't have a bad record, only two

1889
01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:18,719
Speaker 2: defeats coming in. This is as good of a moral

1890
01:21:18,760 --> 01:21:20,719
Speaker 2: win as you can get. Do you think he should

1891
01:21:20,760 --> 01:21:23,400
Speaker 2: kind of be added to the celebrity mixet one with

1892
01:21:23,479 --> 01:21:25,400
Speaker 2: the elite names, whether it's in PBC, I'm not sure

1893
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,600
Speaker 2: his promotional status. I know he was briefly signed with

1894
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:29,360
Speaker 2: Eddie Hearn for a little bit a few years ago.

1895
01:21:29,840 --> 01:21:31,800
Speaker 2: Do you think he's a Could he do this again

1896
01:21:31,800 --> 01:21:32,840
Speaker 2: against these other big players?

1897
01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:33,400
Speaker 1: At one forty?

1898
01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:35,479
Speaker 6: You think I didn't see enough skill to make me

1899
01:21:35,520 --> 01:21:38,720
Speaker 6: believe he could do that, But you know, throw up

1900
01:21:38,760 --> 01:21:40,559
Speaker 6: the bat signal we need a fun fight.

1901
01:21:40,680 --> 01:21:42,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he is your.

1902
01:21:41,920 --> 01:21:43,760
Speaker 2: Full He was so much bigger than Pipley, had a

1903
01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:47,639
Speaker 2: seven inch reach advantage everyone, which, Okay, will we see

1904
01:21:47,680 --> 01:21:48,120
Speaker 2: this again?

1905
01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:54,840
Speaker 1: Ooh, I'd say the chances are greater than fifty percent. Yeah.

1906
01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:57,040
Speaker 2: And is this a legitimate Fight of the Year contender

1907
01:21:57,040 --> 01:21:57,439
Speaker 2: in your mind?

1908
01:21:57,560 --> 01:21:58,559
Speaker 1: Yes, I will say.

1909
01:21:58,600 --> 01:22:01,000
Speaker 6: Though watching this fight, you know they were talking about

1910
01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:04,080
Speaker 6: Ryan Garcia versus Pitbull, and obviously I have no clue

1911
01:22:04,080 --> 01:22:07,080
Speaker 6: what condition Ryan Garcia is in mentally or physically. Yes,

1912
01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:11,559
Speaker 6: but if Ryan is halfway sober and halfway himself, I

1913
01:22:11,600 --> 01:22:16,040
Speaker 6: think he smokes Pitbull. I think he smokes him reach advantage.

1914
01:22:16,080 --> 01:22:18,439
Speaker 6: He's hit able man, super hittable, He's durable and he stop.

1915
01:22:18,560 --> 01:22:20,320
Speaker 6: Please don't mist understand me. But what I'm about Ryan

1916
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:23,880
Speaker 6: Garcia is like speed and accuracy. Well it's interesting something Ryan,

1917
01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:26,040
Speaker 6: I had Devin any fight, I'm not gonna do it again.

1918
01:22:26,080 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 2: Like it's as if the loss to Tank made pit

1919
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,120
Speaker 2: Bull because he took him the distance, because he turned

1920
01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:35,519
Speaker 2: Tank into a boxer. Really, but we know Tank hurt

1921
01:22:35,520 --> 01:22:36,920
Speaker 2: his hand in that fight and it really only had

1922
01:22:36,960 --> 01:22:39,040
Speaker 2: the use of his right hand. But also it was

1923
01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:40,960
Speaker 2: just took that fight on late notice after they pulled

1924
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,680
Speaker 2: really from it. So if they had a rematch, how

1925
01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:47,160
Speaker 2: do you think Pipple versus Uh Tank two would go?

1926
01:22:48,280 --> 01:22:50,080
Speaker 6: Same way I went the first time. I think Tank

1927
01:22:50,240 --> 01:22:52,599
Speaker 6: is underrated as a boxer. I broke down that footage

1928
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:56,240
Speaker 6: for CBS in showtime and that that fight is a

1929
01:22:56,280 --> 01:23:00,400
Speaker 6: big on check Hook's pivoting, circling out, great at work,

1930
01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:01,559
Speaker 6: great ring general ship.

1931
01:23:01,960 --> 01:23:05,400
Speaker 1: Pit Bull walks forward, but he was dude in that fight.

1932
01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:08,000
Speaker 6: I forgot like a look at the exact round, but

1933
01:23:08,360 --> 01:23:10,719
Speaker 6: by round eight I believe in a twelve round contest,

1934
01:23:11,000 --> 01:23:13,080
Speaker 6: Tank had already figured him out, and pit Bull was

1935
01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:14,559
Speaker 6: just kind of in cruise control of the last few

1936
01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:16,479
Speaker 6: rounds because he couldn't get ahead. I don't see any

1937
01:23:16,479 --> 01:23:17,479
Speaker 6: reason why that would be any different.

1938
01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:17,680
Speaker 1: List.

1939
01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but what a hell of a fight of joy

1940
01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:22,639
Speaker 2: to call shout out to those two gentlemen for bringing it.

1941
01:23:22,920 --> 01:23:24,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that's a lot of pressure when they make

1942
01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:27,680
Speaker 2: a commemorative bell and everybody's talking about Barrera Morales and

1943
01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:29,160
Speaker 2: those two go out there and give us that like

1944
01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:32,120
Speaker 2: that's as your is your audio good?

1945
01:23:33,080 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 1: I just lost you in my ear? Whatever? Yeah, Luke,

1946
01:23:36,400 --> 01:23:38,000
Speaker 1: I don't know what you hit. Yeah, you hit something.

1947
01:23:38,000 --> 01:23:39,160
Speaker 2: You turned yourself off again.

1948
01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:40,200
Speaker 1: I didn't do nothing.

1949
01:23:41,840 --> 01:23:43,640
Speaker 2: Let's bring it, Ken, Here we go, Here we go,

1950
01:23:43,680 --> 01:23:44,040
Speaker 2: We're back.

1951
01:23:44,080 --> 01:23:45,400
Speaker 1: You see what I mean? You see what I mean?

1952
01:23:45,600 --> 01:23:48,519
Speaker 1: Fucking what? Am I not touch anything?

1953
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:49,639
Speaker 2: You should just fist fight Kennar.

1954
01:23:49,720 --> 01:23:50,719
Speaker 1: Sound like story.

1955
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:52,679
Speaker 2: Let's go topic.

1956
01:23:52,479 --> 01:23:53,439
Speaker 1: Number real quick?

1957
01:23:53,479 --> 01:23:55,760
Speaker 11: Can you explain what happened with the gloves before this fight?

1958
01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:56,280
Speaker 1: What was that all?

1959
01:23:56,400 --> 01:23:58,400
Speaker 2: I didn't end up getting the final story, but it

1960
01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:00,400
Speaker 2: was during the prelims and is you and they had

1961
01:24:00,439 --> 01:24:03,760
Speaker 2: the cameras backstage, it looked like whatever gloves pipple was

1962
01:24:03,800 --> 01:24:06,400
Speaker 2: planning to use weren't either weren't approved by the commission,

1963
01:24:06,479 --> 01:24:08,960
Speaker 2: or weren't aproved by the opponent. They figured it out,

1964
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:10,600
Speaker 2: they ultimately got it. I don't know if it was

1965
01:24:10,600 --> 01:24:14,960
Speaker 2: a situation like remember Mayweather Madonna Madonna where my Donna

1966
01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:17,960
Speaker 2: wanted to use the whore the puncher's gloves from Mexico,

1967
01:24:17,960 --> 01:24:20,719
Speaker 2: the Rayas gloves, the horse hide gloves, and Floyd uh

1968
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:22,840
Speaker 2: ended up paying them a huge chunk of money not

1969
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,200
Speaker 2: to use those. So I'm not sure the situation in

1970
01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:26,040
Speaker 2: the end, but it's a good question.

1971
01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:26,599
Speaker 1: Long on Luke.

1972
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:28,960
Speaker 2: I never got a clarification on that. I was only

1973
01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:30,559
Speaker 2: a commentator in the end of the day.

1974
01:24:30,680 --> 01:24:32,080
Speaker 1: I appreciate you clearing it up. Thank you.

1975
01:24:32,160 --> 01:24:34,000
Speaker 6: I will say that they had that main event running

1976
01:24:34,000 --> 01:24:35,559
Speaker 6: by like eleven.

1977
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:37,679
Speaker 2: Oh, it was cool. It was that was a quick

1978
01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:38,120
Speaker 2: block out.

1979
01:24:38,160 --> 01:24:39,439
Speaker 1: I'm so happy with the speed of that.

1980
01:24:39,520 --> 01:24:40,960
Speaker 6: Dud When they start those pay per views at eight,

1981
01:24:41,080 --> 01:24:43,000
Speaker 6: you see, we can't start pay per views still ten.

1982
01:24:43,080 --> 01:24:44,680
Speaker 1: I'm like, dude, I don't know about that.

1983
01:24:44,760 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 11: Dude.

1984
01:24:45,040 --> 01:24:46,800
Speaker 2: I love that Al Hayman doesn't allow them to do

1985
01:24:46,840 --> 01:24:47,479
Speaker 2: the the UH.

1986
01:24:47,720 --> 01:24:48,599
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's his call.

1987
01:24:48,640 --> 01:24:51,560
Speaker 2: I assumed like the the national anthems. Yeah, because that

1988
01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:53,000
Speaker 2: could have been I saw people tweet they could have

1989
01:24:53,000 --> 01:24:56,360
Speaker 2: been a three national anthem main event and they ultimately, uh, fuck,

1990
01:24:56,400 --> 01:24:57,960
Speaker 2: you're right, ultimately didn't Ye.

1991
01:24:58,080 --> 01:25:00,280
Speaker 1: Great, thank god. Yeah, I don't need to hear it them.

1992
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:03,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's go to topic number five. As mentioned, we

1993
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,519
Speaker 2: will be back this Friday, eleven a m. Eastern in

Speaker 2: But it is UFC three twelve this Saturday in Australia.

1998
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:15,439
Speaker 2: What city is it in Australia?

1999
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:20,280
Speaker 1: Sydney. In Sydney, Australia, the Kudos Bank Arena, not the home.

2000
01:25:20,080 --> 01:25:23,720
Speaker 2: Of mister Nocita of Melbourne fame. But Luke, it is

2001
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:24,200

2002
01:25:24,320 --> 01:25:26,040
Speaker 1: Okay, I believe it's pronounced Melbourne.

2003
01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:28,519
Speaker 2: No, it's pronounced Melbourne.

2004
01:25:28,520 --> 01:25:31,200
Speaker 1: I know local. They're like, listen, I know what the

2005
01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:34,120
Speaker 1: letters say. Fucking ignore it. Yeah, that's that's how you

2006
01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:35,519
Speaker 1: pronounce it.

2007
01:25:35,640 --> 01:25:37,400
Speaker 7: Now now feels like a good time to bring up

2008
01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:40,240
Speaker 7: the results of the poll. Okay, So we have six

2009
01:25:40,360 --> 01:25:43,960
Speaker 7: hundred and fifty plus votes for which card is better? Yeah,

2010
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,000
Speaker 7: sixty one percent are saying UFC Saudi is better than

2011
01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:48,640
Speaker 7: just just clowns.

2012
01:25:48,880 --> 01:25:49,559
Speaker 2: I think they're right.

2013
01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:51,719
Speaker 1: I think they're right. You're both wrong, and you're gonna

2014
01:25:51,720 --> 01:25:52,639
Speaker 1: see that you're both wrong.

2015
01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:55,880
Speaker 2: Wow. Wow, All right, So Luke Thomas, as it goes

2016
01:25:55,920 --> 01:25:58,160
Speaker 2: down this weekend main event, of course, a Middleway title

2017
01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:02,960
Speaker 2: rematch between Dricis Dupless and Seawan Strickland. What storyline surrounding

2018
01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:05,679
Speaker 2: UFC three twelve, and obviously we're gonna break this shit

2019
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:09,320
Speaker 2: down intensifyingly on Friday. But from a distance, which one

2020
01:26:09,360 --> 01:26:10,200
Speaker 2: has you most interested?

2021
01:26:10,320 --> 01:26:13,800
Speaker 1: Can I tell you? There's a million ways to go.

2022
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:15,720
Speaker 6: As I mentioned, Cody Steele being on the prelims, I

2023
01:26:15,720 --> 01:26:18,519
Speaker 6: think is a big deal. I would say from a

2024
01:26:18,560 --> 01:26:21,640
Speaker 6: storyline standpoint, I'm paying most attention to Tatiana Suarez. That

2025
01:26:21,680 --> 01:26:23,559
Speaker 6: seems like a very do or die moment. But can

2026
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:25,040
Speaker 6: I pick something a little bit different?

2027
01:26:25,120 --> 01:26:26,760
Speaker 2: You can pick whatever you want, but we'll put a

2028
01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:27,760
Speaker 2: poll out to prove you wrong.

2029
01:26:27,840 --> 01:26:31,639
Speaker 6: Okay, fair, I'm sure, I'm sure you Listen, you guys

2030
01:26:31,640 --> 01:26:32,960
Speaker 6: are all wrong about this card. I don't know what

2031
01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:35,880
Speaker 6: to tell you. Okay, there is something interesting about the

2032
01:26:35,920 --> 01:26:38,559
Speaker 6: main event. Now, the first main event, I rewatched it

2033
01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:40,719
Speaker 6: it's not very fun fair to say.

2034
01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:42,600
Speaker 2: High skilling is tense, and it was.

2035
01:26:42,840 --> 01:26:44,679
Speaker 1: My skill tense, but not super thrilling.

2036
01:26:44,800 --> 01:26:47,200
Speaker 2: Yes, okay, I have called the thriller in the past.

2037
01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:47,880
Speaker 2: I'm probably wrong.

2038
01:26:47,960 --> 01:26:49,760
Speaker 1: Let me rewatch it, but certainly not crap. I'm not

2039
01:26:49,800 --> 01:26:50,360
Speaker 1: saying it's crap.

2040
01:26:50,400 --> 01:26:50,479
Speaker 2: Ye.

2041
01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:53,040
Speaker 6: In real time, I thought DDP one. Second time I

2042
01:26:53,040 --> 01:26:54,840
Speaker 6: thought Shan Strickland one. I watched it again, I definitely

2043
01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:58,320
Speaker 6: thought Sean Strickland one. Okay, it's not about that or

2044
01:26:58,360 --> 01:27:01,479
Speaker 6: the implications, but Sean Strickland has made an alteration to

2045
01:27:01,520 --> 01:27:04,840
Speaker 6: his style that I thought was made bear in the

2046
01:27:04,880 --> 01:27:08,840
Speaker 6: first fight. Sean Strickland has decided that he's going to

2047
01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:11,000
Speaker 6: do a lot of He does sort of a square

2048
01:27:11,080 --> 01:27:15,160
Speaker 6: Philly shell, picks up the lead leg to counteract leg kicks,

2049
01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:18,080
Speaker 6: Perry's kind of leans out of the way, all that stuff.

2050
01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:21,080
Speaker 6: But what really happens is that when DDP blitzes, and

2051
01:27:21,120 --> 01:27:22,840
Speaker 6: this happens not just with DDP, but you saw it

2052
01:27:22,840 --> 01:27:23,479
Speaker 6: in this fight a lot.

2053
01:27:23,720 --> 01:27:25,320
Speaker 1: He would retreat cross.

2054
01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:27,640
Speaker 6: Stepping out of the way, leaning his head all the

2055
01:27:27,640 --> 01:27:29,559
Speaker 6: way back. If you look on the camera here, if

2056
01:27:29,560 --> 01:27:31,400
Speaker 6: my hips are in front and my head is back,

2057
01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:35,640
Speaker 6: this is a mechanically not advantageous position from which to

2058
01:27:35,680 --> 01:27:38,160
Speaker 6: throw anything. In fact, he typically does not. Sometimes he

2059
01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:40,479
Speaker 6: will to get guys off of him, but he doesn't throw.

2060
01:27:41,240 --> 01:27:43,880
Speaker 6: Something happened in the Paulo Costa fight, the one in

2061
01:27:43,920 --> 01:27:46,559
Speaker 6: between this one where you go. You saw him issue

2062
01:27:46,560 --> 01:27:49,559
Speaker 6: these retreats. He would stop and then try and throw.

2063
01:27:50,280 --> 01:27:52,840
Speaker 6: He didn't do it all that successfully, but it was

2064
01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:56,000
Speaker 6: clear he was tired of losing five round fights when

2065
01:27:56,000 --> 01:27:58,680
Speaker 6: these wars of attrition where it's kind of hard to

2066
01:27:58,720 --> 01:28:01,960
Speaker 6: tell who's winning, and he's coming up razor close. So

2067
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:04,200
Speaker 6: they decided, if you're just going to retreat like that,

2068
01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:07,280
Speaker 6: you will lose these fights. It's too much. You're giving up.

2069
01:28:07,439 --> 01:28:10,280
Speaker 6: You're forced to reset. You can't throw from this position.

2070
01:28:10,320 --> 01:28:13,479
Speaker 6: There's no counter attack. So they're trying to change his style.

2071
01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:14,160
Speaker 1: Interesting.

2072
01:28:14,160 --> 01:28:17,920
Speaker 6: They're trying to make him sit down, retreat, some retreat

2073
01:28:17,920 --> 01:28:21,360
Speaker 6: in a certain way that enables you to throw back,

2074
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:23,479
Speaker 6: because I think if he goes back to what he

2075
01:28:23,520 --> 01:28:23,880
Speaker 6: did the.

2076
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:27,120
Speaker 1: First time coin flip, I don't know how it's going

2077
01:28:27,160 --> 01:28:27,360
Speaker 1: to go.

2078
01:28:27,880 --> 01:28:33,439
Speaker 6: They're trying to put more muscle into his defensively oriented style.

2079
01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:37,320
Speaker 6: This is the time to make that work and they've

2080
01:28:37,360 --> 01:28:39,840
Speaker 6: bringing in Poeton, and I saw, well.

2081
01:28:39,720 --> 01:28:40,439
Speaker 1: Can we play the clip?

2082
01:28:40,439 --> 01:28:44,560
Speaker 2: Because I actually caught up with Eric Nixon, friend of

2083
01:28:44,600 --> 01:28:44,880
Speaker 2: the show.

2084
01:28:44,920 --> 01:28:46,920
Speaker 6: Friend of the show, Why is Poeton in the corner

2085
01:28:46,920 --> 01:28:48,000
Speaker 6: if he doesn't speak English?

2086
01:28:48,080 --> 01:28:50,160
Speaker 1: I actually think Nixic has a great answer to this.

2087
01:28:50,439 --> 01:28:52,880
Speaker 5: Did this all come together to get Alex in the

2088
01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:55,280
Speaker 5: corner for this one? He was going to be out there,

2089
01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:57,920
Speaker 5: and it was just one of those things where we're

2090
01:28:57,920 --> 01:28:59,320
Speaker 5: looking at the corner and I knew he's going to

2091
01:28:59,360 --> 01:29:02,280
Speaker 5: be out there, and you know, Johnny Eubly couldn't make

2092
01:29:02,320 --> 01:29:04,479
Speaker 5: it out. I was hoping to have him in the corner.

2093
01:29:04,520 --> 01:29:06,920
Speaker 5: Myself and Danny Davis will be there, and it was

2094
01:29:06,960 --> 01:29:09,160
Speaker 5: just a matter of convenience. And these are two guys

2095
01:29:09,160 --> 01:29:10,960
Speaker 5: that really trust one another. You know, Sean went out

2096
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:13,040
Speaker 5: there to help him get ready for a clear roundtree.

2097
01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:16,600
Speaker 5: And you know this what people don't really understand. And

2098
01:29:16,720 --> 01:29:19,720
Speaker 5: I see some people thinking it's like a publicity things.

2099
01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:22,559
Speaker 5: It's more about the comfortability in your corner, and not

2100
01:29:22,640 --> 01:29:25,000
Speaker 5: only that, what Alex is going to bring to the

2101
01:29:25,040 --> 01:29:29,200
Speaker 5: locker room. And Sean warms up very very hard. Sean

2102
01:29:29,360 --> 01:29:31,320
Speaker 5: basically fights in the back to get his eyes in

2103
01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:33,840
Speaker 5: his rhythm and his timing on point. Who better to

2104
01:29:33,920 --> 01:29:36,080
Speaker 5: be back there to help you warm up than Alex

2105
01:29:36,120 --> 01:29:39,000
Speaker 5: freaking paid to right, Like, that guy's gonna help So

2106
01:29:39,160 --> 01:29:41,000
Speaker 5: I see, you know, I've seen a couple of comments

2107
01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:42,880
Speaker 5: here and there about he doesn't even speak English. He

2108
01:29:43,240 --> 01:29:45,400
Speaker 5: was in our corner for the last Dreekas fight. He

2109
01:29:45,479 --> 01:29:47,800
Speaker 5: sat right behind me and he told me everything in

2110
01:29:47,840 --> 01:29:50,280
Speaker 5: my ear. Hey, make sure he teeps more, make sure

2111
01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:53,400
Speaker 5: he job's more. We speak mma, right, there's enough for

2112
01:29:53,520 --> 01:29:55,080
Speaker 5: him to be able to say it helped to be

2113
01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:57,960
Speaker 5: a resource for us. And look, if we're going to battle,

2114
01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:00,960
Speaker 5: who better to have in your corner and Alex Pajeda.

2115
01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:03,080
Speaker 2: So I'll take him in any capacity that we can get.

2116
01:30:03,120 --> 01:30:05,559
Speaker 5: But there's there's a lot of deeper levels and layers

2117
01:30:05,760 --> 01:30:07,839
Speaker 5: of having in the corner than just him just standing

2118
01:30:07,880 --> 01:30:10,120
Speaker 5: there looking scary, you know.

2119
01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:12,000
Speaker 1: So he's gonna help us a ton.

2120
01:30:12,280 --> 01:30:15,679
Speaker 6: Okay, here's why this is important and relevant. I mentioned

2121
01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:19,000
Speaker 6: they're trying to reform Strickland's style, and you're bringing in

2122
01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:20,960
Speaker 6: now a guy like Poeton, who I think they're you're

2123
01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:23,479
Speaker 6: getting him ready in the back, all of the prep,

2124
01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:26,599
Speaker 6: all of the some advice he might get between rounds.

2125
01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:27,800
Speaker 6: But the point I want to make was remember what

2126
01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:30,600
Speaker 6: Drick has said about how he beat Sean Strickland, and

2127
01:30:30,600 --> 01:30:33,479
Speaker 6: his answer was volume. I just kept throwing. I just

2128
01:30:33,560 --> 01:30:36,479
Speaker 6: kept going. They're going to try and meet fire with fire.

2129
01:30:36,600 --> 01:30:38,880
Speaker 6: I'm not declaring to you. I'm not declaring to you

2130
01:30:38,920 --> 01:30:40,439
Speaker 6: that the fight is going to be a barn burner.

2131
01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:42,240
Speaker 6: What I am saying is it's going to be a

2132
01:30:42,280 --> 01:30:46,800
Speaker 6: test case about whether they can fight fire with fire

2133
01:30:47,040 --> 01:30:50,000
Speaker 6: by trying to turbo charge some of the offense that

2134
01:30:50,040 --> 01:30:53,360
Speaker 6: has been missing from his style. To me is why

2135
01:30:53,400 --> 01:30:55,160
Speaker 6: when people were shitting on this main event, I'm like,

2136
01:30:55,680 --> 01:30:57,800
Speaker 6: I can't. I cannot declare to you what's going to happen.

2137
01:30:58,120 --> 01:31:00,240
Speaker 6: But the pessimism around it, to me is.

2138
01:31:00,120 --> 01:31:00,639
Speaker 1: A little stroke.

2139
01:31:00,720 --> 01:31:02,280
Speaker 2: I agree with that. And and like I said, I

2140
01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,559
Speaker 2: thought the first fight was interesting to watch. I want

2141
01:31:04,560 --> 01:31:06,479
Speaker 2: to see the second one. My my biggest storyline was

2142
01:31:06,520 --> 01:31:08,920
Speaker 2: going to be Poeton, but my question was gonna be

2143
01:31:08,920 --> 01:31:11,639
Speaker 2: more ceremonial. That is an interesting breakdown of the ways

2144
01:31:11,640 --> 01:31:13,640
Speaker 2: that it actually could affect. At first, I was like,

2145
01:31:13,680 --> 01:31:15,559
Speaker 2: are they trying to set up DDP moving up to

2146
01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:17,920
Speaker 2: two of five so they've has nothing to do with that, right,

2147
01:31:17,960 --> 01:31:20,639
Speaker 2: It's just sort of like Strickling gets on with with

2148
01:31:20,640 --> 01:31:24,080
Speaker 2: with Chrauma. They're they're good, which is a weird, weird partnership.

2149
01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:24,160
Speaker 1: But it works.

2150
01:31:24,240 --> 01:31:26,840
Speaker 2: Right, This is good. This is gonna be interesting come

2151
01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:28,640
Speaker 2: come Saturday. And I'm really excited about that.

2152
01:31:28,720 --> 01:31:30,880
Speaker 1: What they had Pereira showing video of him cheering for

2153
01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:32,439
Speaker 1: is he in this fight? Did you see that?

2154
01:31:32,600 --> 01:31:35,360

2197
01:33:05,240 --> 01:33:07,680
Speaker 2: sounds like a Christmas vacation from high school, you know,

2198
01:33:07,720 --> 01:33:10,200
Speaker 2: watching Cinemax the whole time? Right, What are the top

2199
01:33:10,240 --> 01:33:13,360
Speaker 2: three fights to make for Izzy after this defeat?

2200
01:33:13,439 --> 01:33:16,360
Speaker 6: I don't There's nothing I wish to see my my

2201
01:33:16,520 --> 01:33:17,960
Speaker 6: dream and I mean this sincerely, dude.

2202
01:33:18,080 --> 01:33:20,280
Speaker 1: You saw the best of them. I have no desire

2203
01:33:20,320 --> 01:33:21,680
Speaker 1: to see him clobbered.

2204
01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:23,120
Speaker 2: Trilogy with his buddy Whittaker.

2205
01:33:23,240 --> 01:33:25,439
Speaker 1: Nothing, not, No, I don't want to see any of it. Dude.

2206
01:33:25,439 --> 01:33:29,040
Speaker 6: I don't pine for watching aging legends perform in the

2207
01:33:29,160 --> 01:33:30,719
Speaker 6: ageist part of their career.

2208
01:33:30,760 --> 01:33:32,200
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't understand.

2209
01:33:32,600 --> 01:33:34,960
Speaker 2: Does this extend to the adult film industry too.

2210
01:33:36,520 --> 01:33:40,360
Speaker 1: Some examples that I can think of might get an exception,

2211
01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:41,120
Speaker 1: but but.

2212
01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:43,000
Speaker 2: I mean fucking fighting, and it's it's all the same.

2213
01:33:43,040 --> 01:33:44,720
Speaker 6: It's all the same. Really, But I mean serious, like,

2214
01:33:44,800 --> 01:33:47,120
Speaker 6: I just don't. I'm not even thinking about top three.

2215
01:33:47,120 --> 01:33:49,439
Speaker 6: I don't think about anything. I recognize that there might

2216
01:33:49,439 --> 01:33:51,880
Speaker 6: be some more on the way, but this.

2217
01:33:51,840 --> 01:33:53,799
Speaker 2: Is the part of the show where we stop being serious.

2218
01:33:54,040 --> 01:33:56,960
Speaker 6: Well, I'm just I mean like, I just it seems

2219
01:33:58,200 --> 01:34:02,120
Speaker 6: again I understand the fame impulse to not let aging

2220
01:34:02,800 --> 01:34:05,280
Speaker 6: fighters who you had a strong attachment to go. I

2221
01:34:05,280 --> 01:34:07,920
Speaker 6: get it, it's totally normal, but at some point you

2222
01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:09,439
Speaker 6: have to reckon with the fact that you get to

2223
01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:11,559
Speaker 6: a place due the fight game is not a fucking joke.

2224
01:34:11,680 --> 01:34:13,920
Speaker 2: Okay, well what about what about this?

2225
01:34:13,960 --> 01:34:14,519
Speaker 1: It's over?

2226
01:34:14,800 --> 01:34:17,840
Speaker 2: What about this? Is he versus m VP?

2227
01:34:18,080 --> 01:34:20,320
Speaker 7: No, I don't have it any that's not long. Look

2228
01:34:21,120 --> 01:34:22,639
Speaker 7: a lot of people were saying that in my life chat.

2229
01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:25,599
Speaker 7: They're like super friendly, like really good. I don't think

2230
01:34:25,600 --> 01:34:29,000
Speaker 7: they'd fight each other, but I will say, uh, guesstl rematch.

2231
01:34:29,040 --> 01:34:30,320
Speaker 7: Come on, that's always on the tape.

2232
01:34:30,360 --> 01:34:32,040
Speaker 2: Come on, come on one more?

2233
01:34:32,120 --> 01:34:33,759
Speaker 11: And what about char Bullet Chara Bullet?

2234
01:34:33,760 --> 01:34:35,360
Speaker 1: Is he called him out to fight before? That's an

2235
01:34:35,360 --> 01:34:35,960
Speaker 1: interesting thing.

2236
01:34:36,040 --> 01:34:40,240
Speaker 6: First of all, R Steve, Steve, just please turn in

2237
01:34:40,280 --> 01:34:41,519
Speaker 6: your Excel spreadsheet reports.

2238
01:34:41,560 --> 01:34:42,599
Speaker 1: Please? What the fuck are you doing?

2239
01:34:43,080 --> 01:34:45,679
Speaker 6: See, no one has ever been in real life pirates

2240
01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:49,439
Speaker 6: are dangerous and shit, but like, who has ever been

2241
01:34:49,439 --> 01:34:51,960
Speaker 6: intimidated by a pirate gimmick ever in your life?

2242
01:34:52,439 --> 01:34:53,360
Speaker 1: Like it's the least.

2243
01:34:53,240 --> 01:34:56,360
Speaker 6: Intimidating thing ever, Like the closest you can get to

2244
01:34:56,360 --> 01:35:02,560
Speaker 6: it is, like I don't know, Like it's who is

2245
01:35:02,600 --> 01:35:06,719
Speaker 6: intimidated by fucking pirate ship. He's wearing a rag like

2246
01:35:06,720 --> 01:35:07,400
Speaker 6: like an old.

2247
01:35:07,320 --> 01:35:10,280
Speaker 1: Washwoman somewhere in the middle of nowhere, just cleaning clothes

2248
01:35:10,320 --> 01:35:13,720
Speaker 1: on a fucking clothesline and ship like. It's just it's

2249
01:35:13,760 --> 01:35:14,800
Speaker 1: the lamest fucking you know.

2250
01:35:14,920 --> 01:35:18,120
Speaker 2: He should walk out to that creed song with eye

2251
01:35:18,400 --> 01:35:18,920
Speaker 2: wide old.

2252
01:35:21,280 --> 01:35:22,639
Speaker 1: Sorry that was that was for start.

2253
01:35:22,800 --> 01:35:24,600
Speaker 2: Let's go to the next one. Let's go to the

2254
01:35:24,640 --> 01:35:28,960
Speaker 2: next one, please from Fayhee. Liam Luke's favorite.

2255
01:35:28,640 --> 01:35:29,839
Speaker 1: First name is definitely not American.

2256
01:35:29,840 --> 01:35:31,960
Speaker 2: Who is seen as the better striker in all of

2257
01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:34,400
Speaker 2: m m A. Is he or Alex both have a

2258
01:35:34,439 --> 01:35:36,679
Speaker 2: win over each other. Alex is a two weight champion,

2259
01:35:36,880 --> 01:35:38,760
Speaker 2: is he has more title defenses? So they want to

2260
01:35:38,760 --> 01:35:40,200
Speaker 2: know who's the better pure MMA.

2261
01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:40,800
Speaker 1: Striker of the two.

2262
01:35:40,800 --> 01:35:42,200
Speaker 2: It's got to be easy, right now.

2263
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:47,920
Speaker 6: Well, that's complicated because certainly, well, let's be clear, Alex

2264
01:35:47,960 --> 01:35:49,400
Speaker 6: did way more in kickboxing.

2265
01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:51,479
Speaker 1: It was it was a double champ because he was

2266
01:35:51,479 --> 01:35:51,800
Speaker 1: never a.

2267
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:55,000
Speaker 6: Champ and in like the highest level. He was good

2268
01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:56,960
Speaker 6: at the highest level, but he was never great and

2269
01:35:56,960 --> 01:35:59,800
Speaker 6: and Poeto was great. So there's one big difference there.

2270
01:36:00,080 --> 01:36:03,080
Speaker 1: In mm A that's tough.

2271
01:36:03,479 --> 01:36:06,360
Speaker 2: Is he has despite getting knocked out in the first fight,

2272
01:36:06,600 --> 01:36:11,240
Speaker 2: has like dominated more of the action against him, but

2273
01:36:11,360 --> 01:36:12,000
Speaker 2: he picked it up.

2274
01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:13,680
Speaker 6: I mean it was there was takedowns in that fight too.

2275
01:36:13,760 --> 01:36:16,040
Speaker 6: I mean, certainly you can say this poet. The difference

2276
01:36:16,080 --> 01:36:18,439
Speaker 6: we talked about where is he is managing guys and

2277
01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:21,720
Speaker 6: diffusing bombs. That's not what Poton does. Poton just goes

2278
01:36:21,760 --> 01:36:24,200
Speaker 6: and just fucking yeah, you know, lays it down. He

2279
01:36:24,320 --> 01:36:26,880
Speaker 6: lowers the boom on. Yeah, he lowers the boom on you.

2280
01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:30,080
Speaker 6: And that makes it a very different proposition. I will

2281
01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:33,880
Speaker 6: say that is he has seemingly more tools. I do

2282
01:36:33,920 --> 01:36:36,920
Speaker 6: think that is true. He uses a lot more to

2283
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:40,479
Speaker 6: make his product work. But there's a certain like brutal

2284
01:36:40,520 --> 01:36:43,679
Speaker 6: simplicity to what Poton does that is fucking magic.

2285
01:36:43,760 --> 01:36:46,080
Speaker 2: Is it crazy that the two biggest catchphrases in MMA

2286
01:36:46,200 --> 01:36:47,000
Speaker 2: begin with the letter.

2287
01:36:47,240 --> 01:36:50,559
Speaker 1: H shama and cheweewies.

2288
01:36:52,400 --> 01:36:56,400
Speaker 2: I forgot about next one? Please long island, thank you

2289
01:36:56,840 --> 01:37:00,960
Speaker 2: from at you don't know Tyler. Assumingello beats Bud and

2290
01:37:01,040 --> 01:37:04,559
Speaker 2: collects the loan belt from William's skull, is the likelihood

2291
01:37:04,560 --> 01:37:06,880
Speaker 2: that Canelo goes up to face the winner of Benavita's

2292
01:37:06,920 --> 01:37:10,640
Speaker 2: bed give up undisputed versus undisputed. I don't think he

2293
01:37:10,720 --> 01:37:13,880
Speaker 2: wants it, But is there a scenario where Canelo goes,

2294
01:37:13,920 --> 01:37:16,640
Speaker 2: all right, I've done my money gets yeah, and now

2295
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:19,000
Speaker 2: I want one more huge one that will.

2296
01:37:18,800 --> 01:37:20,839
Speaker 1: Bring the cash out with Turkey.

2297
01:37:21,560 --> 01:37:23,040
Speaker 2: So you think Bud is the cash out?

2298
01:37:23,160 --> 01:37:24,599
Speaker 1: Then no, he's saying.

2299
01:37:24,800 --> 01:37:26,960
Speaker 6: He's saying in this the scenario that he positive was

2300
01:37:27,000 --> 01:37:30,599
Speaker 6: what happens if Bud that like, like, so he beats Bud, right,

2301
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,120
Speaker 6: that's the scenario. So now we're talking in a post

2302
01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:35,839
Speaker 6: Bud world. I think what he's ready to be done.

2303
01:37:35,920 --> 01:37:37,639
Speaker 6: He might go and say I'll just give one more

2304
01:37:37,680 --> 01:37:40,160
Speaker 6: go at Bivol and if I lose, I'm done, have

2305
01:37:40,240 --> 01:37:41,160
Speaker 6: a huge check.

2306
01:37:41,520 --> 01:37:44,599
Speaker 1: But like, dude, I don't know what delusional.

2307
01:37:44,000 --> 01:37:46,280
Speaker 6: World people are living in where people think Canelo is

2308
01:37:46,360 --> 01:37:49,720
Speaker 6: hunting down tough fights. He's been doing the opposite for

2309
01:37:49,920 --> 01:37:52,799
Speaker 6: literally years at this but he's such.

2310
01:37:52,640 --> 01:37:55,320
Speaker 2: A the rest of his career has been badass, so

2311
01:37:55,320 --> 01:37:57,200
Speaker 2: it's so hard to just act like this is just

2312
01:37:57,200 --> 01:38:00,000
Speaker 2: who he's be calm. I'm like, is he waiting Benavita's out?

2313
01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:01,120
Speaker 2: In some levels?

2314
01:38:02,040 --> 01:38:05,160
Speaker 6: Something absolutely not who he was what he did up

2315
01:38:05,240 --> 01:38:07,280
Speaker 6: to twenty twenty. When did he beat Kail Plant twenty

2316
01:38:07,320 --> 01:38:09,920
Speaker 6: twenty one. Yeah, so, like up to that point, he

2317
01:38:10,080 --> 01:38:13,760
Speaker 6: was a fucking terminator. But since that point, since the

2318
01:38:13,760 --> 01:38:16,360
Speaker 6: Bevil loss anyway, it's been the exact option.

2319
01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:18,120
Speaker 2: I mean, he did want to get bevol second time

2320
01:38:18,200 --> 01:38:20,400
Speaker 2: Bevall seventy five and he couldn't, So I mean, I'll

2321
01:38:20,400 --> 01:38:22,479
Speaker 2: give him the credit for wanting it. But there's like

2322
01:38:22,600 --> 01:38:25,080
Speaker 2: whispers that he might fight Jake Paul this year. There's

2323
01:38:25,080 --> 01:38:28,120
Speaker 2: like whispers out there. I think it's I really hope.

2324
01:38:28,160 --> 01:38:30,840
Speaker 2: I don't know if they say that. I just really

2325
01:38:30,920 --> 01:38:34,360
Speaker 2: hope not. People, Please, can we just stop with this bs? Okay,

2326
01:38:34,880 --> 01:38:37,240
Speaker 2: let's go to the next question from the folks, from

2327
01:38:37,240 --> 01:38:40,920
Speaker 2: the people here from oh look, from Hawaii's finest, right,

2328
01:38:41,360 --> 01:38:44,439
Speaker 2: Telvin keep Appah, Yeah, take that, dazz right.

2329
01:38:44,920 --> 01:38:45,400
Speaker 11: Who do you.

2330
01:38:45,360 --> 01:38:48,360
Speaker 2: Guys have winning the Super Bowl? The Eagles?

2331
01:38:48,439 --> 01:38:50,800
Speaker 6: I mean, or this is truly a this is the

2332
01:38:50,840 --> 01:38:55,000
Speaker 6: Sophie's choice really of Super Bowls. It's like the Kansas

2333
01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:57,880
Speaker 6: City Chiefs, who basically everyone outside of Kansas City is

2334
01:38:57,920 --> 01:39:01,519
Speaker 6: fucking sick of, versus the worst fan base in American

2335
01:39:01,520 --> 01:39:04,960
Speaker 6: pro sports in the Philadelphia Eagles, who, by the way,

2336
01:39:04,960 --> 01:39:06,040
Speaker 6: I don't know if you saw all the videos of

2337
01:39:06,080 --> 01:39:07,679
Speaker 6: like you know, the Commanders got whooped when they played

2338
01:39:07,720 --> 01:39:09,559
Speaker 6: it at the length and they're all leaving in all

2339
01:39:09,600 --> 01:39:12,120
Speaker 6: the Philly fans are just fucking harassing and quite libally

2340
01:39:12,120 --> 01:39:13,240
Speaker 6: physically attacking.

2341
01:39:12,840 --> 01:39:14,160
Speaker 1: Those Those are Sean Brady's people.

2342
01:39:14,640 --> 01:39:16,160
Speaker 6: I like Sean Brady a lot, but you know, I

2343
01:39:16,439 --> 01:39:18,280
Speaker 6: don't think Sean would do that. But I agree Sean

2344
01:39:18,360 --> 01:39:20,639
Speaker 6: is associated with them, and you know they are dirt bags.

2345
01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:23,320
Speaker 2: I mean, you're right.

2346
01:39:23,520 --> 01:39:25,519
Speaker 6: I have a rule that if my team loses, and

2347
01:39:25,560 --> 01:39:27,680
Speaker 6: they lose thoroughly, I actually cheer for the team that

2348
01:39:27,720 --> 01:39:30,160
Speaker 6: beat them because they won fair and square.

2349
01:39:30,479 --> 01:39:31,599
Speaker 1: Philly won fair and square.

2350
01:39:31,680 --> 01:39:34,000
Speaker 2: Philly does have nicer service workers than DC.

2351
01:39:35,960 --> 01:39:36,920
Speaker 1: How do you know that's true.

2352
01:39:37,200 --> 01:39:38,080
Speaker 2: I've been to Philly.

2353
01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:39,160
Speaker 1: I've been to Philly too.

2354
01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:41,200
Speaker 2: I mean, you can get stabbed in Philly pretty quickly,

2355
01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:44,360
Speaker 2: but they'll they'll sell your jokes at the Register early story,

2356
01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:45,040
Speaker 2: you know what I mean.

2357
01:39:45,160 --> 01:39:48,200
Speaker 6: I'm gonna I'm gonna cheer for Philly. And it's again,

2358
01:39:48,200 --> 01:39:50,640
Speaker 6: it's Sophie's choice. The Nazis are asking you which kid

2359
01:39:50,680 --> 01:39:51,760
Speaker 6: you want to give up. I don't know what there

2360
01:39:51,840 --> 01:39:53,880
Speaker 6: was a right answer to that one, but I don't.

2361
01:39:53,960 --> 01:39:57,479
Speaker 1: I don't really care. Be fair, I'll watch it beat

2362
01:39:57,520 --> 01:39:58,240
Speaker 1: on the Super Bowl.

2363
01:39:58,520 --> 01:40:00,960
Speaker 7: I don't really care either. But you're about Philly fans

2364
01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:02,439
Speaker 7: being insufferable, so I'll go Chiefs.

2365
01:40:02,520 --> 01:40:04,840
Speaker 6: Dude, who are these I saw these Commanders fans being

2366
01:40:04,840 --> 01:40:07,000
Speaker 6: like no, I got harassed at at at the link,

2367
01:40:07,400 --> 01:40:10,720
Speaker 6: and I'm like, why the fuck would you go to

2368
01:40:10,880 --> 01:40:13,880
Speaker 6: Philadelphia head to toe in whatever team's gear?

2369
01:40:14,479 --> 01:40:16,120
Speaker 1: You saw? That said? You see the guy who.

2370
01:40:15,960 --> 01:40:18,479
Speaker 6: Lost his job, who attacked the girl with the Green

2371
01:40:18,520 --> 01:40:20,320
Speaker 6: Bay Packers gear at the same fucking.

2372
01:40:20,439 --> 01:40:22,320
Speaker 2: Fan bases they act like they're gangs.

2373
01:40:23,160 --> 01:40:24,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, why would you ever go to an

2374
01:40:24,800 --> 01:40:27,599
Speaker 1: NFL game? Ever? It's the worst experience on known demand.

2375
01:40:28,040 --> 01:40:29,640
Speaker 1: But then more to that, like, why would you go

2376
01:40:29,680 --> 01:40:31,920
Speaker 1: to fucking Philly? Dude? I told you this. I took

2377
01:40:31,960 --> 01:40:34,160
Speaker 1: my wife. She had never been to an NFL game before.

2378
01:40:34,720 --> 01:40:35,960
Speaker 6: I didn't take her to Philly, but I took her

2379
01:40:36,000 --> 01:40:38,040

01:41:56,880 --> 01:41:58,400
Speaker 6: given the most accurate translations.

2415
01:41:59,240 --> 01:42:00,240

2417
01:42:01,920 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 6: people who do those translations typically, and Abner's was as

2418
01:42:05,040 --> 01:42:07,160
Speaker 6: good or better than most of them.

2419
01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:09,240

Speaker 6: Tito was on the season of The Apprentice with Trump? Right, Yes,

2514
01:46:40,600 --> 01:46:42,439

01:46:42,439 --> 01:46:43,679
Speaker 2: I used to love Celebrity Apprentice.

2516
01:46:43,680 --> 01:46:45,320

2522
01:46:52,640 --> 01:46:56,040
Speaker 6: kettle meine adult fucking idiot. But I'll say this, I

2523
01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:58,200
Speaker 6: thought that Trump and like Tito were like, you know,

2524
01:46:58,320 --> 01:47:00,720
Speaker 6: not close or something, but they had a positive relationship.

2525
01:47:01,040 --> 01:47:03,240
Speaker 2: I don't think you can be friends with Tito and Dana.

2526
01:47:03,280 --> 01:47:04,280
Speaker 2: I think Dana, yeah, that's right.

2527
01:47:04,360 --> 01:47:05,840
Speaker 1: I think that's right. I mean it feels like he's

2528
01:47:05,840 --> 01:47:08,360
Speaker 1: been iced out a little bit, right, Yeah, I.

2529
01:47:08,280 --> 01:47:11,920
Speaker 2: Think life is icing to some degree. But uh luke,

2530
01:47:12,000 --> 01:47:13,439
Speaker 2: it's time to play a game we haven't played in

2531
01:47:13,479 --> 01:47:17,200
Speaker 2: a long time. It's time to rate that test, dude.

2532
01:47:17,439 --> 01:47:20,280
Speaker 2: One to ten ten being you know, perfect perfect. Okay,

2533
01:47:20,320 --> 01:47:22,080
Speaker 2: here we go, let's start off. This comes to us

2534
01:47:22,080 --> 01:47:25,680
Speaker 2: from the artist Pablo Esquiel Frius.

2535
01:47:25,240 --> 01:47:27,120
Speaker 1: And it took Yeah, I'm sure you said that correct, And.

2536
01:47:27,120 --> 01:47:30,160
Speaker 2: It took eighteen hours. Luke, give me a rating one

2537
01:47:30,160 --> 01:47:30,840
Speaker 2: to ten on this.

2538
01:47:30,840 --> 01:47:33,280
Speaker 6: This is a ten. This is about as good as

2539
01:47:33,320 --> 01:47:35,800
Speaker 6: this style of tattoo gettings. Look at the saturation on

2540
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:39,240
Speaker 6: the color, The shading is perfect, the placement on the

2541
01:47:39,240 --> 01:47:42,320
Speaker 6: body is absolutely I've never seen colors prop like that.

2542
01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:42,960
Speaker 1: That is.

2543
01:47:43,240 --> 01:47:43,360
Speaker 2: So.

2544
01:47:43,400 --> 01:47:45,479
Speaker 6: You know what's interesting is I got a tattoo years ago,

2545
01:47:45,520 --> 01:47:47,840
Speaker 6: the one that's got the flag on my arm, and

2546
01:47:48,960 --> 01:47:50,920
Speaker 6: I remember that. When I got these newer ones, they

2547
01:47:50,920 --> 01:47:52,439
Speaker 6: looked at that one and I was asking, like, you know,

2548
01:47:52,439 --> 01:47:53,280
Speaker 6: why is this one fading?

2549
01:47:53,280 --> 01:47:54,120
Speaker 1: And what they told me.

2550
01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:55,880
Speaker 6: Is recently, I guess in the last like five to

2551
01:47:55,920 --> 01:47:59,800
Speaker 6: seven years, there's been an advancement in tattoo coloring ink.

2552
01:48:00,360 --> 01:48:04,320
Speaker 6: It's gotten both safer and better quality. And I asked him,

2553
01:48:04,360 --> 01:48:05,840
Speaker 6: I was like, oh, how long will these ones last?

2554
01:48:06,120 --> 01:48:08,000
Speaker 6: And his answer was, because these are so new, they

2555
01:48:08,040 --> 01:48:10,639
Speaker 6: actually don't even know. They expect it will last longer.

2556
01:48:10,640 --> 01:48:12,519
Speaker 6: But the one I'm trying to make is that is skill.

2557
01:48:12,760 --> 01:48:14,800
Speaker 6: For sure, that is skill, but it might be just

2558
01:48:14,840 --> 01:48:17,040
Speaker 6: also a product of like really good new material too.

2559
01:48:17,160 --> 01:48:19,080
Speaker 2: So that's a ten. Mister Hebos's tattoo is.

2560
01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:21,160
Speaker 1: Like what a negative seventy five thousand.

2561
01:48:21,680 --> 01:48:23,439
Speaker 2: Let's go to the next tat that, Luke and rate.

2562
01:48:25,920 --> 01:48:29,519
Speaker 1: Titty. Go here, Luke, can we get.

2563
01:48:29,360 --> 01:48:30,240
Speaker 2: A score please?

2564
01:48:31,200 --> 01:48:32,360
Speaker 1: It's a ten for effort.

2565
01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:35,000
Speaker 6: Yes, the taste buds look like he has some kind

2566
01:48:35,040 --> 01:48:37,679
Speaker 6: of disease, look like rib cage must.

2567
01:48:37,720 --> 01:48:40,200
Speaker 1: Also, it's just really unappealing. I'm gonna go three.

2568
01:48:40,280 --> 01:48:42,439
Speaker 2: Okay, let's go to the next one, Luke. This is

2569
01:48:42,439 --> 01:48:44,880
Speaker 2: a real touching, romantic one with a heart.

2570
01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:52,000
Speaker 6: It's a certain kind of minimalist tattoo. Again, line work,

2571
01:48:52,120 --> 01:48:56,000
Speaker 6: not terrible, saturation, good artistic expression, a little questionable.

2572
01:48:56,160 --> 01:49:01,200
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, four, okay, let's go to this NFL fan, Luke.

2573
01:49:01,280 --> 01:49:03,000
Speaker 2: I think you can give him a zero, but what

2574
01:49:03,040 --> 01:49:04,759
Speaker 2: about his Niner gang?

2575
01:49:06,320 --> 01:49:08,000
Speaker 6: To get more acting on the back of your head?

2576
01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:10,800
Speaker 6: You absolute zero? I mean, look at this? Is this

2577
01:49:10,920 --> 01:49:13,840
Speaker 6: a where's the difference between being an NFL fan and

2578
01:49:13,880 --> 01:49:17,240
Speaker 6: a goddamn prison gang? I don't know, except I guess

2579
01:49:17,280 --> 01:49:19,560
Speaker 6: they use red coloring on the tattoos as opposed to

2580
01:49:19,640 --> 01:49:21,240
Speaker 6: just black and gray. This is terrible, This is zero.

2581
01:49:21,439 --> 01:49:23,200
Speaker 2: Do you think tattoos on the back of the head

2582
01:49:23,200 --> 01:49:25,439
Speaker 2: are more often than not always terrible?

2583
01:49:27,360 --> 01:49:29,400
Speaker 1: More often than not, yes, but there certainly are exceptions.

2584
01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:31,680
Speaker 2: What about political ones in the back of the head? Me?

2585
01:49:31,760 --> 01:49:38,679
Speaker 1: What do we got here? Oh my god? What line

2633
01:52:08,840 --> 01:52:10,400

2634
01:52:10,439 --> 01:52:12,200

2640
01:52:23,960 --> 01:52:26,680
Speaker 6: And I'll never fucking forget this. He was already shithoused.

2641
01:52:26,920 --> 01:52:30,720
Speaker 6: He cracks this motherfucker and goes to the face with it.

2642
01:52:30,960 --> 01:52:34,160
