That's crazy, you know. 24 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:23,520 Speaker 6: Actually I think it was significantly warmer, probably twice as 25 00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 6: warm in Connecticut. I was in Connecticut doing a seminar 26 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 6: over at Bushido jiu Jitsu in Manchester, Connecticut. Thank you 27 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 6: and shout out to those guys. But yeah, it was 28 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 6: like in the seventies or something like low seventies, high sixties. 29 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 4: Crazy about that. 30 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:39,120 Speaker 6: But I've I've been, I've bit in Vegas when it 31 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,040 Speaker 6: gets really cold and it throws you for a loop. 32 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 6: It's really cold in the desert over there. 33 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 4: Jiu Jitsu seminar for Ken Flow in New England. We 34 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 4: were just talking in our little pre show meeting there 35 00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 4: about Andre moon Niz, who's absolutely incredible wins by armbar 36 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 4: over Eric Anders as he continues to collect arms in 37 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 4: the UFC. We probably won't get that far down the 38 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 4: card to the early prelims, if I'm being honest, because 39 00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:02,640 Speaker 4: there's probably twenty five or thirty minutes off the top, 40 00:02:02,760 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 4: just on Juliana Pena. But do you know the origins 41 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 4: of Brazilian jiu jitsu being referred to as the gentle 42 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 4: art because I know we joke about it, right, but 43 00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 4: it doesn't at all seem an appropriate nickname for that 44 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 4: type of endeavor at all, Like it's not funny anymore. Really, 45 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 4: Like what's the. 46 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 6: Other sing you know it's supposed to be. It comes 47 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 6: from Judo, I believe, Jigaro Kano, and you know that 48 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 6: was the philosophy, was to use the gentle way, the 49 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 6: soft way of executing things like throws and you know, 50 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 6: arm bars and things like that. The result of those 51 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 6: gentle movements, though, are often very violent and crushing, so 52 00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 6: not so gentle in that way. But in the application 53 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 6: of it, the idea is is to be gentle and soft. 54 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 6: But sometimes in being gentle and soft, you just happen 55 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 6: to choke neck, break knee right, break ankles and break 56 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:53,440 Speaker 6: arms and. 57 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 4: Shoulder right right. Let me softly choke you to sleep 58 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 4: and when you wake up they'll be fine, which is 59 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 4: the case. We just like hold your leg is up 60 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 4: or something. You know, all of it super fucking gentle. Uh. Anyway, 61 00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 4: I am getting the itch bahoompa, maybe gonna pad out 62 00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:10,360 Speaker 4: my garage, Like what's my wife gonna say? Like, because 63 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:13,399 Speaker 4: he's offered to pad out my garage with these dollarmer 64 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 4: mats and so my wife are gonna, you're gonna, you're 65 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 4: gonna Matt the garage to take five classes of Brazilian 66 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 4: jiu jitsu. I mean, you know, well, and. 67 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 6: Then he's gonna he's gonna ruin your smoking station, by 68 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:24,360 Speaker 6: the way, which. 69 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:29,000 Speaker 4: Is that's right, that's right, that's right, that's jugs retreat 70 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,560 Speaker 4: right there. That's children are getting older those so, uh, 71 00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 4: you know, I know, might have to take up drinking 72 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 4: alcohol because it doesn't smell all right. Well, let's get 73 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:46,920 Speaker 4: to Julian Openia. Man, I kind of want to lead 74 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 4: with Charlie Olives though you know, I don't want to 75 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 4: think like a television producer here. I mean, but let's 76 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 4: let's lead with uh, let's lead with Julian Openia because 77 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 4: I think that, uh, it's a longer conversation. So the 78 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 4: Venezuelan Vixen plus six point fifty or so turns in 79 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 4: one of the biggest upsets in UFC history. She beats 80 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 4: Amanda Nunez by rear naked choke in round two. Ken Flow, 81 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 4: You're in a bar in New England. You're watching this 82 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 4: go down. Talk to me, kid, what are your thoughts 83 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 4: as it's going down? And what were your thoughts on 84 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,120 Speaker 4: the fighter pretty bananas, you know. 85 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 6: I talked about it's hard, right because I don't want 86 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 6: to take away from the win of Pana, which was 87 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,559 Speaker 6: just one of the more fascinating upsets that I've ever seen. 88 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 6: But she used the one thing that she knew she 89 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 6: had more of than Nunez, right, and that was toughness. 90 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,040 Speaker 6: She made it a game of who had more of that, 91 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 6: who had more heart, and who had more resiliency, who 92 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 6: had more conditioning, and she had that. 93 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 4: You as a fighter, you need to. 94 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 6: Understand what you have and who you are, and you 95 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 6: have to understand your weapons very well. A tank does 96 00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,840 Speaker 6: very specific things and faighteen does very specific things, and 97 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 6: you can't just use it whenever you want. And for Nunez, 98 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:15,240 Speaker 6: she didn't really understand what made her a tough challenge. 99 00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 6: For Panya, it seemed because I don't care who you are. 100 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 6: If you're a pro fighter and you get some brawler 101 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:24,160 Speaker 6: from a bar that gets up and wants to fight you, 102 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 6: you don't sit there and just trade, because now you're 103 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 6: eliminating all of your skills. And Nunez got emotional and 104 00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 6: she thought that just because she had more power, that 105 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 6: she was going to go out there and win, it seemed, 106 00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:39,000 Speaker 6: and that was just not the case. Panya was too 107 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 6: tough and too resilient and had so much heart and 108 00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 6: conditioning that she just kept putting it on Nunez again 109 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:49,080 Speaker 6: and again and again, and every time Nuna's tried she 110 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 6: failed and was losing those exchanges and getting hurt, and 111 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 6: ultimately Panya ended up pulling off one of the biggest 112 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 6: upsets I've ever seen. But you saw it coming. It 113 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 6: wasn't at one shot like Matt Sarah when he caught 114 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:06,000 Speaker 6: George Saint Pierre and you know, oh man, big mistake, 115 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 6: big shot by Sarah. 116 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 4: He catches and he wins. 117 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:14,240 Speaker 6: Shortly after this was repeated car crashes by Nonez again 118 00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 6: and again, expecting a different result, and she wasn't out 119 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,919 Speaker 6: there to be the more technical fighter, and because of 120 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:21,640 Speaker 6: that she lost. 121 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 4: You set it up beautifully for me. You know, Juliana 122 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 4: Penya is tough. I mean, you know, she has heart, 123 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 4: she's resilient, she was in shape, she was healthy, which 124 00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 4: is a big part of this. But when she goes 125 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 4: back to the stool after round one, which was largely 126 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 4: a dominant round for Amanda Noonez, even though I didn't 127 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 4: like some of the smirking from Amandad. I don't know. 128 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,359 Speaker 4: Body language was different for me for a man to 129 00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 4: hear than say, the Felicia Spencer fight. It just seemed 130 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:47,040 Speaker 4: like she maybe did underestimate Juliana Penya and her overall ability, 131 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 4: but not a great visual for Penya on the stool 132 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 4: after round one. I thought Rick Little and Luis Claudio 133 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,640 Speaker 4: and those guys did a good job of centering her. 134 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 4: But a big part of their messaging Kenny, even in 135 00:06:56,839 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 4: training camp, has been believe in your skills. Like after this, 136 00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 4: I talked to Luis Claudio, one of Juliana Penny's coaches, 137 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,279 Speaker 4: her jiu jitsu coach, and he's like, you gotta believe 138 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 4: in your skills, you know, believe in your jab, believe 139 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,720 Speaker 4: in your skills. And she believed in everything, and she 140 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 4: turned the world upside fucking down. 141 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:16,520 Speaker 6: I will say this, it's interesting you bring this up 142 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 6: because Okay, so when she went to the ground, she 143 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 6: was looking to try to do a sweep from half guard, 144 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 6: and apparently it was something they were working on, and 145 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 6: you could see them keep going to that, keep coming up, 146 00:07:28,240 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 6: and she responded to Rick Littelwan and said, every time 147 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 6: I come up, she's going for the guillotine, and he said, 148 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 6: don't worry about that, to stick with what you're doing. 149 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 6: She keeps going for the guillotine. It was almost like 150 00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 6: this ground thing isn't working. Yeah, and again I didn't 151 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 6: hear everything in the corner that night. I don't know 152 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 6: what they talked about strategy wise, but I feel like 153 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 6: this was her fighter's intuition that took over and said, 154 00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:54,320 Speaker 6: you know what, screw quit, I'm gonna go out there 155 00:07:54,320 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 6: and just I'm gonna lead with my toughness. I'm gonna 156 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,240 Speaker 6: lead with my chin Yeah, and fuck it, this is 157 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 6: how I'm gonna win this point. I'm I'm just gonna 158 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,480 Speaker 6: be the tougher woman out there. And it seemed like 159 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 6: that's what it worked, that's what worked. And for Nonez 160 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 6: doing that, she was rolling the dice, and rolling the 161 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 6: dice has proven to be the riskiest of games when 162 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,480 Speaker 6: it to combat, and for Penya, I thought it was brilliant. 163 00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 6: I don't know if that was on her herself, you know, 164 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 6: just like I'm not sea go out there and brawl, 165 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 6: but it worked and. 166 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 4: It was bath and when you said lead with her toughness, honestly, 167 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 4: it gave me chills. So as far as Amana Nunez 168 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,280 Speaker 4: is concerned, and nobody's trying to take away from Juliana Penya, 169 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,360 Speaker 4: but when the consensus greatest of all time goes down, 170 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:37,320 Speaker 4: oftentimes there are more roads in terms of talking points 171 00:08:37,320 --> 00:08:41,079 Speaker 4: for Amanda Nunez. She has been sort of the poster 172 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 4: child for coachability right in mixed martial arts, right when 173 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: you talk to Dean Thomas and Conan Silvera and Dean 174 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 4: Thomas used to prepare films for her and she would 175 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,120 Speaker 4: ingest all of them. And you know, when when she 176 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 4: beats Felicia Spencer fifty to forty kenny, we're talking about 177 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 4: her strategy and her trying to force a mistake in 178 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:01,000 Speaker 4: because Felicia didn't make an obvious one. You know, it 179 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:04,000 Speaker 4: was risk mitigation and Amanda Newnas probably could have taken 180 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,199 Speaker 4: more risks than the Spencer fight, but she didn't. And 181 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 4: then compared to this effort, you know, it's just very interesting, 182 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 4: and there's so many different layers. There's the motherhood angle, 183 00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:16,000 Speaker 4: and you know, there are different types of cardiovascular strength. 184 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 4: You know, sometimes we see Nuon at one hundred and 185 00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 4: thirty four and a half pounds on the scale and 186 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 4: we're like wow, and maybe it's just like, well, she 187 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 4: made the number, but she's not necessarily in the shape 188 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 4: she was in for the Durandomy fight. So I don't know, 189 00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 4: I don't know. Yeah, it's a tough one, you know. 190 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 6: I think that it's very difficult when you are the 191 00:09:33,960 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 6: champion and you've been dominant through you know, the latter 192 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:41,160 Speaker 6: part of your career, because you believe that you're you're invincible, 193 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:44,440 Speaker 6: and you know what, skills wise, she is head and 194 00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 6: shoulders above everybody else. But as we know, skills don't 195 00:09:48,520 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 6: always win fights. Your heart is going to be tested oftentimes, 196 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 6: and you have to be able to keep your composure. 197 00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,160 Speaker 6: And I felt like her composure was kind of thrown 198 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 6: out the window there, and you know, I think it's 199 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,360 Speaker 6: going to be a tough lesson for her. You know, 200 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:08,480 Speaker 6: I don't know what her mental state was heading into 201 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:12,400 Speaker 6: this fight, right, But it can be easy when you 202 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 6: have a lot of people around you, or maybe it's 203 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,160 Speaker 6: because your own beliefs that you think you're going to 204 00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 6: have that belt for for a long time. But the 205 00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 6: reality is there's a lot of hungry people out there 206 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 6: and Panya is not someone to be underestimated. She's going 207 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 6: to be in your face trying to win that fight 208 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:28,720 Speaker 6: every second. 209 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 4: NOONEZ has to be methodical and making one hundred and 210 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 4: thirty five pounds. And I'm very curious if she's going 211 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 4: to want to turn around in four to six months 212 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:39,439 Speaker 4: and have this immediate rematch or if she's going to 213 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,000 Speaker 4: want to take some time off. But when we get 214 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 4: to Charles Olivera, you're gonna hear me talk about just 215 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 4: his presence in a fight and how there he is 216 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,320 Speaker 4: despite the fact that they won't let him wear his 217 00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,000 Speaker 4: glasses in there, you know. And I don't know. I 218 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 4: just don't know that NOONEZ was that on this night. 219 00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 4: And certainly sometimes fighters talk about just waking up and 220 00:10:56,320 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 4: just not feeling right. And maybe there were a few 221 00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 4: things intimated in training that they were trying to get 222 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,480 Speaker 4: her to get that maybe she wasn't getting. But I 223 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 4: don't know. I mean, she doesn't seem so attached to 224 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 4: the result. And obviously she's had several seven figure paydays 225 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 4: presumably right she has realized more financial freedom than she 226 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 4: ever thought possible. She's never been happier as an individual. 227 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:23,680 Speaker 4: She loves motherhood. You could tell she's the favorite mother. 228 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,880 Speaker 4: I love Yanina, but you can tell that the daughter 229 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 4: gravitates towards Amanda. I'm just kidding, not really, but you know, 230 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 4: she seems to have everything in gosh. Like I mean, 231 00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 4: juxtaposed against Dustin, Pooriekenflow, she didn't seem very upset, you know, 232 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 4: sort of walking back into her new life as defeated champion. 233 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, listen, I think that that could be telling. And 234 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 6: I kind of saw that same thing. Maybe it's because 235 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 6: I am extremely hard on myself that I thought that 236 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 6: was a little bit odd. However, everyone deals with things differently. 237 00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 6: But yeah, I don't know if that's a good sign. 238 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:00,160 Speaker 6: I've probably used this quote before in references before, but 239 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,240 Speaker 6: you know in the movie Batman with with bain Uh 240 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:10,160 Speaker 6: when he told Batman that victory has defeated him, and 241 00:12:10,400 --> 00:12:13,240 Speaker 6: many times that could be the case. When you're no 242 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 6: longer when you no longer have that hunger, and when 243 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 6: you've had an easy time beating everybody, it's those it's 244 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,720 Speaker 6: that comfort. It's that very same comfort that could actually 245 00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:27,080 Speaker 6: lead to your demise, and you have to have that, 246 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,640 Speaker 6: you know, chip on your shoulder in a lot of ways, 247 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 6: you have to have that fear that that person across 248 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 6: from you is going to hurt you and take everything 249 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:38,680 Speaker 6: that you have. But if you have millions of dollars 250 00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 6: and you got a comfort bed and you got all 251 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 6: those things back home, then you know that you're gonna 252 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,560 Speaker 6: be safe no matter what the result is always gonna. 253 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 4: Be going for you. So yeah, that that's just like 254 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,080 Speaker 4: not taking anything I got. You know, It's like I 255 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:55,560 Speaker 4: still have you know, probably six million bucks. I don't 256 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 4: know how much money, but we still got a whole 257 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 4: lot of money, right, We still got a featherweight championship, 258 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 4: still got an immediate rematch if we want. But man, 259 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:08,240 Speaker 4: tough night for American Top Team all around, and a 260 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,720 Speaker 4: huge knight for Juliana Penya and for Rick Little and 261 00:13:10,800 --> 00:13:13,880 Speaker 4: Sick Jujitsu and Michael Kisa and everybody to realize the 262 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,199 Speaker 4: UFC Championship. This is big stuff, you know. I wish 263 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 4: I could name all the coaches, but Wayne Gregory and 264 00:13:18,679 --> 00:13:21,200 Speaker 4: obviously my guy Luis Claudio gives me all this jiu 265 00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 4: jitsu gear, all these rash guards. It's like LCCT Brazilian 266 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 4: jiu Jitsu. There's your plug. But I don't know what 267 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,199 Speaker 4: you want to do, put a rash guard on to 268 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 4: go run on the treadmill. Maybe I got Ken I 269 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:33,319 Speaker 4: had a Ken Flow team Florian rashguard back in the day. 270 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,040 Speaker 4: But we congratulate Juliana Penya, and I think the good 271 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:41,320 Speaker 4: news for the UFC, even though that whole Kayla Harrison 272 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 4: situation maybe blows up a little bit at least in 273 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 4: terms of the immediate future. PFL guy Ken Flows like, oh, 274 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,160 Speaker 4: maybe we get her back now, right, But in terms 275 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,560 Speaker 4: of Juliana Penya, She's gonna be an active champion, I 276 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,319 Speaker 4: would think, and there are a lot of different possible 277 00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: rematches out there for her against Valentina Chevchenko and Amanda 278 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 4: new Nes. Jermainda is not in the rankings, so I 279 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 4: don't know what's going on there. I guess there were 280 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 4: some comments that were out there not all that long ago. 281 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 4: I mean a Reine Aldonna, Holly Holme, Katlyn Vieda. All 282 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 4: of these women are on a winning streak. But we 283 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 4: are going to center our conversation obviously on Amanda nuon 284 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,559 Speaker 4: az In Valentina Chefchenko, And maybe it's not so obvious 285 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 4: because I'm the one who injected Chefchenko's name into all 286 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 4: of this on social media, and some people perhaps think 287 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:24,800 Speaker 4: I should not have. I guess I don't want divisions 288 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 4: being held up, right, And certainly Tyla Santos, I guess 289 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,520 Speaker 4: is the most worthy flyweight title challenger right now for 290 00:14:32,600 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 4: Valentina Chefchenko. Maybe right, But Valentina Chevchenko has deserved to 291 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 4: be in this goat conversation for such a long time 292 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 4: in my opinion, as a mixed martial artist dating to 293 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 4: three years old, right, she's been mixing all this stuff 294 00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 4: together like if ever there were an athlete other than 295 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,040 Speaker 4: a usman going up to fight his friend at eighty 296 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 4: five that deserved to have this type of double champ 297 00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 4: distinction for whatever it means, it's Valentina Chevchenko. So who 298 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 4: would probably be a three to one favorite to beat 299 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,800 Speaker 4: Juliana Penya in a rematch of a main event several 300 00:15:05,880 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 4: years ago? So what do you think is gonna happen? 301 00:15:08,600 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 4: I know you have no idea what Nunez is gonna do, 302 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 4: But what do you think is gonna happen as far 303 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 4: as Juliana Penna's first title defense is concerned. I think 304 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 4: that's a great point. I think that Nunez. 305 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,280 Speaker 6: Is going to want this rematch, and I think she's 306 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 6: gonna want it sooner than later. I think I would think, right, 307 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 6: because I don't know. I mean, and I think for 308 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 6: the UFC, I think it's she's more valuable as champion 309 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,560 Speaker 6: right now. And I think that a lot of people 310 00:15:38,560 --> 00:15:40,520 Speaker 6: are going to be very intrigued to see this fight 311 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 6: if we go back in time. And that's not always 312 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 6: an indicator what's gonna happen in the future, but you know, 313 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 6: when you had a champion like Rodon Rousey, they were 314 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,920 Speaker 6: looking to get her back in there as soon as possible, 315 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 6: for better or worse. 316 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:52,480 Speaker 2: Uh. 317 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 6: And perhaps Nunas isn't as big of a star, but 318 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 6: with everything that she's accomplished, I think they're going to 319 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,720 Speaker 6: try to get her right back in there. I think 320 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 6: for Penya it's financially smart to do that as well. 321 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 6: And I think that would be a huge fight. I 322 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 6: think it'd be a much much bigger fight than this one. 323 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, there were some rumblings on the ground about a 324 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:20,920 Speaker 4: possible return to Brazil Rio de Janeiro as soon as 325 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 4: May of twenty twenty two. I asked Charles about that 326 00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 4: in the Fighter meeting. Cody brings it up in our 327 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 4: side room chat here. I mean that would be interesting, right, 328 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 4: Juliana Penya probably trying to lay something foundationally to make 329 00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 4: sure title defense number one is not against Nunez in 330 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 4: the actual jungle. But yes, I would certainly be behind 331 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 4: an immediate rematch, and that's obviously I think what is 332 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 4: the most likely. I think it's the most deserving. Obviously, 333 00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:49,600 Speaker 4: I don't have to sit here and talk about Amanda 334 00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 4: Nonez's worthiness as the greatest of all time for this 335 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 4: immediate rematch, right, But if she does not have an 336 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 4: appetite to get back in there by say June or 337 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 4: latest Internation fight week July of next year, I think 338 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 4: that they're going to want to move on, and I 339 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 4: think Juliana Pena is going to want to move on 340 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,479 Speaker 4: so very interesting things. And that's an upset obviously that 341 00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 4: we're be talking about for some time. Let us get 342 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 4: to Charles du Bronx Olivera and when he won the title, 343 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 4: or excuse me, when he defended the title, I said, 344 00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 4: you know, doubt him now, doubt him now like doubt 345 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 4: him now, right, And maybe that's too much sort of 346 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 4: editorialization by me as far as a championship call is concerned, 347 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,920 Speaker 4: but I got sick of that. Charles Olivera naysayers. Man, 348 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 4: You know, this dude is an absolute warrior. When he 349 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 4: filled out his UFC BIO as a twenty year old Kenny, 350 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,040 Speaker 4: you know what he listed as his strength heart, right, 351 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 4: So everybody's been questioning his ticker the whole time, and 352 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,520 Speaker 4: I just haven't necessarily seen that quitter, right, Like, even 353 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 4: in this fight, there was one time when Dustaid I think, 354 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:54,399 Speaker 4: landed a right hook that dropped Charles right or it 355 00:17:54,440 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 4: didn't drop him, but he went to the ground because 356 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,360 Speaker 4: he knew in that moment he needed to kind of recover. 357 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 4: I feel like we've been like misinterpreting a lot of 358 00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 4: his body language for years. You know, certainly in the 359 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 4: Felder fight, you know people suggest, no, man, like he 360 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 4: wasn't gonna win that fight, right, that was the beginning 361 00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 4: of the end. Like, I just I don't know, man, 362 00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:11,679 Speaker 4: I'm just so happy to see him get a win 363 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 4: like this had to walk through hell to do it. 364 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 4: He knew he was gonna have to walk through some stuff. 365 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:19,280 Speaker 4: But oh man, the front kicks attacking the body. Charles 366 00:18:19,320 --> 00:18:21,080 Speaker 4: Olivera is the fucking man. I hope he gets a 367 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 4: chance to defend the belt in Brazil. But you want 368 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 4: to talk about like the perfect first title defense to 369 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:28,440 Speaker 4: prove to the world that you're the dude and the 370 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 4: undisputed champion. That's what that was for me Saturday night, 371 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 4: no question about it. 372 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 6: I think that you know, if you go back and 373 00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,919 Speaker 6: you look at what was his record between I don't know, 374 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 6: two thousand, I forget it was like two thousand, maybe 375 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,640 Speaker 6: fourteen to twenty seventeen, something like that. Twenty thirteen twenty seventeen, 376 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,359 Speaker 6: he had like a ten and eight record, right and 377 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 6: then after that he's you know, gone ten and zer. 378 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 6: So you know, you look at some of those results 379 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,760 Speaker 6: and you're gosh, you know, the Cub Swanson fight, you know, 380 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,679 Speaker 6: maybe gets hurt in the body and those things. I 381 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 6: think that's kind of what led to that, because he's 382 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 6: made it look so easy. He hasn't had any challenges. 383 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:14,320 Speaker 6: He's racked up submission after submission over the last few years, 384 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 6: and you know, certainly didn't have the level of competition 385 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 6: that Dustin Pourier did. But he went out there and 386 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 6: proved that not only is he highly skilled, but he 387 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:29,000 Speaker 6: does have the heart and I think it's something to 388 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 6: be said for maturation and experience. You look at all 389 00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 6: the experience that he's accrued. It's a wonderful blueprint for 390 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 6: other fighters to look and say, you know what, take 391 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:46,439 Speaker 6: your fucking time, get the right fights, wait till you 392 00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,880 Speaker 6: are able to go out and use those skills. Because 393 00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 6: it's one thing to be the guy in the gym 394 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,720 Speaker 6: who has all these skills or to be super technical, 395 00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 6: but going out and doing it in a. 396 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,359 Speaker 4: Fight is something completely different. 397 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,959 Speaker 6: Okay, when you're talking about pressure and the other due 398 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 6: to cross from you and all the chaos and all 399 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:02,880 Speaker 6: the crap that can happen in between a fight and 400 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 6: on fight night. So now all of that has come together, 401 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 6: and boy has it come together at the right time 402 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 6: for Charles Olavera. 403 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 4: He just looked phenomenal. 404 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 6: And for anyone who's going to question his heart at 405 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:17,960 Speaker 6: this time, you'd be wrong, completely wrong. He ate some 406 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:22,639 Speaker 6: huge shots from Dustin Pourier, came back really just proved 407 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 6: to be the more technical fighter and proved that he 408 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 6: can take a shot and come back. His resiliency was 409 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 6: on point, his skills were on point. The way he 410 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,359 Speaker 6: puts it all together is something to behold, he's a 411 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 6: phenomenal champion, and just really happy for the guy. What 412 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 6: a fight, what a win man. 413 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 4: In terms of his heart, Anthony Smith sort of said 414 00:20:41,520 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 4: on the post show that he has struggled with adversity 415 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 4: in the past, and I think that's sort of a 416 00:20:46,840 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 4: gentler way to put it, you know, I feel like, 417 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 4: in a lot of respects, part of his struggles were 418 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: just that he was in the wrong weight class, you know, 419 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,200 Speaker 4: seven and four a one hundred and forty five pounds, 420 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 4: and maybe at times just ill equipped to take a 421 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:58,720 Speaker 4: body shot. And I don't know, you know, he was 422 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 4: sort of lay as a fragile guy at times, and 423 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 4: I'm just very happy to see him break through find 424 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 4: the right weight class. He goes seven to four forty 425 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,119 Speaker 4: five now eleven and one, excuse me, at one hundred 426 00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 4: and fifty five pounds. As far as Dustin Pourier is concerned, 427 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,920 Speaker 4: he said he was not supposed to brawl, and he 428 00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,479 Speaker 4: sort of engaged in Charles's type of fight. You know, 429 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,399 Speaker 4: I think we all knew there was a decided grappling 430 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:25,640 Speaker 4: and wrestling advantage for Charles Olivera and maybe the striking 431 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 4: on the feet was closer than we thought. But what 432 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 4: did you make a Poorier's performance in defeat? 433 00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:34,119 Speaker 6: You know, I thought that he did a good job 434 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:39,200 Speaker 6: in round one. I thought his left hand was scoring repeatedly. 435 00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:44,440 Speaker 6: He made a couple critical mistakes, and both of them 436 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 6: happened during the grapple, the exchanges. One one happened while 437 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,560 Speaker 6: he was in that oma plata, which is that shoulder 438 00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 6: lock with the legs of OLIVERA. Now, Olivera did grab 439 00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 6: that glove. There was two incidents where he had it 440 00:21:56,800 --> 00:21:58,880 Speaker 6: for a couple seconds. He grabbed the inside of the glove, 441 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 6: which is illegal. Hard to see in the moment, whatever, 442 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,760 Speaker 6: that wasn't the indicator even if you're grabbing the inside 443 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:10,800 Speaker 6: of the glove. Dustin Poitier's posture was just not good. 444 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 6: You cannot you cannot be in that posture. And there 445 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 6: was nothing that was preventing him from getting up. All 446 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:19,320 Speaker 6: you gotta do get your hips underneath your head, get 447 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 6: your posture back, and turn and face. And he did 448 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:24,560 Speaker 6: not do that. He ended up rolling out for some reason, 449 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 6: you know. And then that led to Olivery getting on 450 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 6: top and just really dominating round two, round three, instead 451 00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:34,920 Speaker 6: of fighting, instead of fighting. 452 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,480 Speaker 4: The choke and not allowing that arm to get underneath 453 00:22:37,480 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 4: the neck. 454 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,719 Speaker 6: He starts fighting hands and he did this against Habib 455 00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:45,200 Speaker 6: as well, and you'd think he'd learned from this, and again, 456 00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:48,439 Speaker 6: Pooria an amazing fighter. So I'm just I'm just stating facts. 457 00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 6: As a jiu jitsu mixed martial arts from the outside end. 458 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:53,680 Speaker 6: That was a huge error. You cannot do that. If 459 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 6: someone's trying to get through the door. You don't start 460 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 6: closing all the windows, right, You dress the fucking door 461 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 6: that's in front of you. And this is what's gonna 462 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:04,240 Speaker 6: choke him. Who cares about the hands? If that's underneath 463 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,119 Speaker 6: the neck, you gotta address that choke. And he didn't 464 00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 6: do it. And this again he did it again from 465 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 6: the Habib fight. So it's it's unfortunately he didn't learn 466 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 6: from that again and probably was gonna go on to 467 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,080 Speaker 6: lose that round or ultimately get choked out anyway. But 468 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,520 Speaker 6: that was the determining factor and in him getting submitted. 469 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 6: And of course you have a phenom when it comes 470 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 6: to the submission game, introls Oliver, So I don't right 471 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:28,679 Speaker 6: away from him, but there was a mistake made and 472 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:29,600 Speaker 6: I have to point that out. 473 00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:32,879 Speaker 4: Is some of the posturing issue just have to do 474 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 4: with the fear of everything that Charles can do that 475 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 4: if you do this, then X happens. And great question. 476 00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:40,800 Speaker 4: Great question. 477 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 6: If he turned in face a lot of times, the 478 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 6: threat is of that triangle, and with Oliver's long legs, 479 00:23:45,600 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 6: perhaps that he was thinking, hey, if I turn it 480 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,399 Speaker 6: face and get posture, maybe he'll shoot that triangle and 481 00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,719 Speaker 6: combo off of that, which is a common double attack 482 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 6: from that move. But regardless, the posture is going to 483 00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 6: take care of the triangle as well. And and again 484 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 6: it's it's a tough one, you know. It's it's real 485 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,920 Speaker 6: easy for me to say it from from the outside 486 00:24:04,960 --> 00:24:07,439 Speaker 6: looking in. I don't know what he was feeling, but 487 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:11,240 Speaker 6: that's just you know, having watched a lot of Jids 488 00:24:11,280 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 6: do at MMA over the years, I saw that as 489 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 6: a critical point in that round. And you know, again, 490 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 6: it's a huge credit to Oliver for attacking that and 491 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,520 Speaker 6: identifying that mistake and taking full advantage of it. 492 00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 4: Oliver is just phenomenal. Had almost six minutes of ground 493 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 4: control time or control time, i should say, despite being 494 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:34,760 Speaker 4: zero for six on takedowns, which is is pretty incredible. 495 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 4: But I don't know, it's gonna be interesting to see 496 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 4: him now moving forward against Justin Gaegee. I really hope 497 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 4: he gets to defend this belt in Brazil because there's 498 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 4: just something so special about that atmosphere, and obviously we 499 00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 4: have not been there in a while, so I don't 500 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 4: know if that's gonna happen. But you got a quick 501 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 4: handicap for us on Charles Oliver and Gaigie. Certainly the 502 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:55,119 Speaker 4: champion is going to be the favorite. But a fascinating 503 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,520 Speaker 4: stylistic clash. And you can be sure Gaigie's in full 504 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 4: fledged training camp mode, like right now he's where so 505 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:02,159 Speaker 4: it sure is. 506 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:06,800 Speaker 6: And again I see this being a similar fight, you know, 507 00:25:06,840 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 6: to this one with Dustin Poier, with you know, Geechee 508 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:15,159 Speaker 6: having that very similar attitude of surviving and persevering and 509 00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 6: leading with his heart. And I think the difference for 510 00:25:18,680 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 6: me is olivera can't take those same shots that he 511 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 6: took against Pooria. If he takes you know, two or 512 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,760 Speaker 6: three of those crosses that he took against Poorier against 513 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 6: Gei Chee, it might be lights out completely. Gei Chie 514 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:36,440 Speaker 6: just hits harder than Poorier, right my opinion. However, Gaichie 515 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 6: doesn't have half of the grappling that Poorier has. 516 00:25:39,920 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 4: Maybe on the wrestling side. 517 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:46,920 Speaker 6: Uh So, OLIVERA still can expose that grappling weakness of Gaichee. 518 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 4: Uh So, as far as. 519 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 6: Uh you know how I see that, I think OLIVERA 520 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,200 Speaker 6: would probably come out as a slight favorite. 521 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 4: I think, yeah, so Oliver about a two to one 522 00:25:57,200 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 4: favorite minus one ninety or so, justin Geige plus one 523 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 4: sixty five or so. But you know, as far as 524 00:26:05,359 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 4: Pourier is concerned and his future, you know, I think 525 00:26:08,800 --> 00:26:10,880 Speaker 4: some people kind of minimize the fact that he had 526 00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 4: three big fights inside of a calendar year because the 527 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 4: Connor McGregor fights were short, even though the training camps 528 00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:21,080 Speaker 4: were long. Dominic Cruz in twenty sixteen, I talked about 529 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 4: it a lot, felt like it was just biting off 530 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,879 Speaker 4: more than he could chew, going Dila Shawn January, Faber 531 00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 4: in July, and then Cody Garbrant in December of twenty sixteen. 532 00:26:29,560 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 4: I believe it was, And so I asked Dustin about 533 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:33,960 Speaker 4: that in our fighter meeting and it was the shortest 534 00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 4: answer he's given me in like twenty fighter meetings. You know, 535 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 4: he was like, I'm grateful for twenty twenty one but John, 536 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:44,560 Speaker 4: after this, I need a vacation. And it was telling 537 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 4: you know, it's like you can only ask so much 538 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,119 Speaker 4: of yourself athletically. And I'm going to trot out that 539 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 4: same line when we get to Cody Garbrant here in 540 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,400 Speaker 4: a little bit. And I just think for Dustin Pourier, 541 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 4: you know, Charles has been off since May, and there's 542 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 4: an emotional and a mental and a physical toll that 543 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,000 Speaker 4: comes with those McGregor fights, and I just think that 544 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 4: it was asking a lot for Dustin Poorrier is a 545 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 4: minus one sixty five favorite to win again. 546 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 6: You were on top of this probably months ago when 547 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,119 Speaker 6: you were talking about this, but when this fight was 548 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 6: first announced, you talked about this very factor, and I. 549 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,919 Speaker 4: Think you're pretty on point. You know what people don't consider. 550 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 6: Everyone looks at the fight, but you know, no one's 551 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:23,159 Speaker 6: looking at Dustin Poirier training every damn day, you know, 552 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 6: and grinding that takes a toll on you physically. 553 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:28,399 Speaker 4: But I would I would go even further. 554 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 6: Not only is it those factors, but also it's hard 555 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,720 Speaker 6: to do a lot of skill development during that time 556 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 6: when you are prepping for a fight, very specific fight, 557 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,679 Speaker 6: You're not necessarily working on a lot of new things 558 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 6: and adding to the arsenal. You're you're you're honing in, 559 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 6: you're sharpening, you're you're kind of utilizing your current skills 560 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 6: to get ready for a specific opponent. So not only that, 561 00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:54,920 Speaker 6: think about how many sparring rounds you're doing to prepare 562 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 6: for that five round fight. You know, Yeah, maybe Poitier's 563 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 6: fights against Connor didn't go the full time twenty five minutes, 564 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:03,320 Speaker 6: but it's preparing like he's going to and a lot 565 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 6: of times that those training camps for five round fights 566 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 6: are absolutely brutal. That's what another factor what makes it 567 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 6: being so difficult to hold onto that belt your every 568 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 6: fight is a five rounder and preparing every single time 569 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 6: for a five round brutal war. 570 00:28:19,600 --> 00:28:22,800 Speaker 4: You would think that Pourier's training camp for kabibnrmago Matov 571 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 4: would have helped him more than it did in this fight. 572 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:27,040 Speaker 4: You know, when we ask him about how a training 573 00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 4: camp for Charles Olivera differs compared to his training camp 574 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,400 Speaker 4: for Conor McGregor, he says that, obviously it's a lot 575 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 4: more groundwork and a lot more grappling, but a lot 576 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 4: of what he does with Mike Brown sort of instructing 577 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 4: is starting in bad positions and getting out of them. 578 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 4: And I do know that there are other coaches, and 579 00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 4: I'm not going to name names, but they approach a 580 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:48,560 Speaker 4: challenge like Charles olivera differently. They don't spend their whole 581 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 4: training camp in bad positions. They maybe make it a 582 00:28:52,240 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 4: really boring fight because they try to avoid a lot 583 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:58,400 Speaker 4: of contact with that man at all costs. Right, the 584 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 4: Great Ray Longo is joining us, and as he centers 585 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 4: up the camera, Kenny, I don't know, Like, if you're 586 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 4: preparing to fight Charles Oliver, I guess it's different because 587 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,040 Speaker 4: of your jiu jitsu acumen. But if you were preparing 588 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 4: Dustin Poier to fight someone like Charles Oliver in his 589 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 4: skill set, I don't know. I guess he's so well 590 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 4: rounded out it might not matter long ago, coming in 591 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,680 Speaker 4: with a lot of extra curricular Today, Uh, what the 592 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 4: fuck is going on over there? 593 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:24,000 Speaker 3: Exact way? Well, I can barely hear you. 594 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 4: I'll raise my voice. Then, what the fuck? Let me 595 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 4: try logging in again. This is all right, get him out. 596 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:36,800 Speaker 4: This is scintillating audio. It's even better video, Kenny, I 597 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,560 Speaker 4: don't know, right, I mean, obviously you got to spend 598 00:29:38,600 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 4: some time training in bad positions. But if you're if 599 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 4: you're preparing for someone like Charles, if you're if you're 600 00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 4: Trevor Whitman and Gai Chee, you know, how do you 601 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,479 Speaker 4: how do you prepare? 602 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 3: Well? 603 00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 6: Listen, Gaichie doesn't want to be on his back or 604 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 6: have Olivera on his back at any point during this fight. 605 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 6: If that happens, the fight will be over. Olivera is 606 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 6: significantly better on the ground than justin Gaechee. 607 00:30:04,160 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 4: Period. 608 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 6: Where gay Chie needs to get it done is with 609 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 6: his counter wrestling, and that's typically the way he prepares. 610 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:14,000 Speaker 6: He doesn't in my understanding, and maybe I'm speaking out 611 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 6: of turns, he doesn't spend a whole lot of time 612 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 6: preparing on the ground. It's more wrestling to stop it 613 00:30:18,280 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 6: from going to the ground and then him taking your 614 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,040 Speaker 6: fucking head off. 615 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 4: That's what he compares for, and he does extremely well. 616 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 4: There's just this this Damien Maya like danger with Charles Olivera, 617 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 4: and it's even more dangerous because he's so strong, you know, right, 618 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 4: I mean Maya was undersized as a middleweight when he's 619 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,240 Speaker 4: starting his career just destroying everybody, but It's like with 620 00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:41,200 Speaker 4: Charles Man, it just feels like there's just imminent danger 621 00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 4: around every corner when you guys are touching in any position, 622 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,320 Speaker 4: whether he's on the bottom, whether he's on top, he's 623 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 4: on your back, and the clinch, it's like, get away 624 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 4: from this guy, John. I think it's a great point. 625 00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 6: I also think that when you're so good everywhere, it 626 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 6: tends to compound everything where it's like, I don't give 627 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 6: a shit where this fight goes. I'm so damn good 628 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 6: in the clinch. I'm good at law range, I'm good 629 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 6: on the ground. 630 00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,840 Speaker 4: Where do you want it? Because I'll go there and 631 00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 4: I'll write right right, that's like and he's like, and 632 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,560 Speaker 4: you know what I can't even see right, Yeah, I'm 633 00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 4: like exactly. Yeah. Like rock fan not a ferry out there, 634 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 4: you know, gives the cornerman the glasses right before he 635 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,479 Speaker 4: goes into the octagon. You know, it's incredible. I know, 636 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,560 Speaker 4: Billy Corntello just had that PRK procedure and uh, you 637 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 4: know we bring it up in fun. You know, a 638 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:25,480 Speaker 4: fan took his glasses. It's like more valuable to the 639 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 4: guy than his belt. Right, you can see how blind 640 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 4: he is though, somebody took his glasses. He's like, no, no, no, no, 641 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 4: no no no, right A completely lost without those things, 642 00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 4: you know, Like when I take my lenses out too 643 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:38,040 Speaker 4: early and I can't find my glasses, I'm absolutely screwed, 644 00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:40,160 Speaker 4: all right, So ken Fall, I'm on my flight to Vegas, 645 00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 4: sitting in my seat, out of my own business. All 646 00:31:41,840 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 4: of a sudden, I get an air drop. You ever 647 00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 4: get one of these randomly? Gotta say it kind of 648 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 4: scare me a little bit that someone could just drop 649 00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 4: like weird picks on my phone. Got me thinking what 650 00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 4: happens when I leave my Wi Fi on when I'm 651 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 4: doing all this traveling.

All right, let's get to some more 679 00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 4: fights here as we wait on Ray longo oh, I'm 680 00:33:08,440 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 4: being told Ray's getting on Steve Lee's computer. So I 681 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 4: wonder if the mass is listening or watching right now 682 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 4: want me to like go at him for all of 683 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,440 Speaker 4: this technical stuff today, or if they just want me 684 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:23,360 Speaker 4: to optimize time and talk about the fights shows up late, 685 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 4: can't connect. Guy's got some things to work on for 686 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 4: twenty twenty two. So in terms of Dustin Pourier, we 687 00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:33,959 Speaker 4: know he needs a vacation. Obviously can flow, but obviously 688 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:35,560 Speaker 4: there are a ton of matchups. I mean, I think 689 00:33:35,560 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 4: this is a particularly bitter pill to swallow because he's 690 00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:41,920 Speaker 4: had two shots at the undisputed title late twenty nineteen, 691 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 4: late twenty twenty one. So despite the two wins over 692 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 4: Connor McGregor, right, this guy really cares about the ultimate prize, 693 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,600 Speaker 4: you know, and he's gonna need at least one more 694 00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:52,719 Speaker 4: win to get back there. Some people think the Chandler 695 00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 4: fight has legs. I don't think you see Dustin until 696 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 4: International Fight Week, you know, next year at the earliest, 697 00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 4: but anything in terms of a matchup, and maybe you 698 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:04,560 Speaker 4: would like to see as he builds back. Jeez, you know, 699 00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:06,400 Speaker 4: I think there's no shortage there. 700 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 6: Seeing his post fight press conference was heartbreaking as a 701 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 6: guy who has failed winning the belt a few times, 702 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 6: you know, having worked so hard and not achieving it. 703 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:20,880 Speaker 6: It really was tough to see that that press conference. 704 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 6: But you know, the good thing is that he's a 705 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:28,400 Speaker 6: fan favorite. He still has a rematch with Connor McGregor 706 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,960 Speaker 6: perhaps anytime he wants it. I'm sure Conor would take that. 707 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 6: That's a big fight for him. 708 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,879 Speaker 4: That actually makes a lot of sense right now. 709 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:37,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, maybe maybe nd As. Nat As and him have 710 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:42,839 Speaker 6: gone back and forth as well a little bit, and uh, 711 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 6: you know, maybe one fifty five, maybe even one seventy. 712 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 6: I think there's no shortage of opponents for him, and 713 00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 6: I still think he's he's in a good spot. 714 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 4: I think he'll stay a fifty five and try to 715 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:57,640 Speaker 4: make one more concerted effort at the belt. And yeah, now, 716 00:34:57,680 --> 00:34:59,200 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, the Connor fight makes a lot 717 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,560 Speaker 4: of sense. All right. We're now joined by a man 718 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 4: who has had a haircut since you have last seen him. Uh, 719 00:35:04,600 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 4: Steve Lee to the rescue. He's all centered up. It's 720 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:14,280 Speaker 4: the Ray Longo Minute presented by what's it presented by? Today? 721 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,840 Speaker 4: By one more Sleep merchandise or pod boys. 722 00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 3: Huh, we're going down this rabbit hole. 723 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 4: Uh say it, no, I know nothing.

I got to talk to Cody. 728 00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 4: Chicken Pound asked Ray about his chickens. I'm supposed to 729 00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:39,560 Speaker 4: ask you about your chickens. 730 00:35:39,600 --> 00:35:43,040 Speaker 3: Oh, unbelievable. What a company Chicken Pound sponsoring me with 731 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:45,720 Speaker 3: old the chicken I could eat really really good stuff. 732 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 3: We'll get to it later though, because I got to 733 00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 3: tell you, and I'm not I'm not discounting a Chicken 734 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,439 Speaker 3: Pound because they're getting a lot of love right now. 735 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 3: But uh wow, what a oh my god.

It was it was crazy, 772 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,440 Speaker 3: you know, and uh, I got to tell you, I 773 00:37:38,480 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 3: went to uh Dylan Montello. Shout out to Dylan and 774 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,040 Speaker 3: his lovely bride, Samantha. We were all at the wedding 775 00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 3: the night before, so this was I pretty banged up 776 00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:54,399 Speaker 3: for this whole weekend. But uh, yeah, Kenny, what I hey? 777 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 3: But uh, you know, one of the other coaches here, 778 00:37:58,160 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 3: Eric Kaya, was telling me he's good friends with Wayne 779 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,600 Speaker 3: Gregory and that he did a great job on a 780 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 3: boxing And I'm not saying the boxing was you know, 781 00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 3: on point, but she was tough enough to stand in 782 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 3: the pocket take a couple, give a couple, and I 783 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 3: think that was the difference in the fight, right, I mean, 784 00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 3: she didn't she wasn't backing down, and I think, you know, uh, 785 00:38:18,920 --> 00:38:23,200 Speaker 3: Nona's was a more technical fighter, but toughness and heart 786 00:38:23,239 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 3: and determination goes to Penya. She was willing to throw, 787 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 3: she was willing to take one to give one, and 788 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 3: I think that broke down Amanda Nunas that she couldn't 789 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 3: bully her around, and then once she got taken down 790 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:38,760 Speaker 3: that last time. I mean, I don't even think Juliana 791 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 3: knew she won the fight because I don't even think 792 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 3: the choke was in after the fight if you looked, 793 00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:45,360 Speaker 3: I mean, that's what I saw anyway, was why is 794 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 3: she not bumping around? Like? Why is she not going crazy? 795 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:53,680 Speaker 4: She wasn't as emotionally attached to I wasn't as hungry. 796 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,799 Speaker 4: It's not as attached to the result as you know. 797 00:38:55,960 --> 00:38:58,680 Speaker 3: I mean, I guess, I don't know. She didn't think 798 00:38:58,719 --> 00:39:00,880 Speaker 3: she had that choking, and I don't know what they were. 799 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,880 Speaker 4: Doing, don't I'm not a fighter. I don't know, but 800 00:39:02,880 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 4: when your tank's on empty and you're not in desperation mode, 801 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:08,399 Speaker 4: you know. 802 00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:11,799 Speaker 3: So it was a crazy, crazy time, but you kind 803 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,400 Speaker 3: of saw that unfolding. I think with the exchanges is 804 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 3: what I'm saying is that there was she didn't look 805 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:20,360 Speaker 3: like she was She took some big shots and she 806 00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:23,320 Speaker 3: was in budget. So I think that was that was 807 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 3: step one to go, Wow, this looks like it's got 808 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 3: the makings of an upset right here. 809 00:39:27,160 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 4: Do you believe that Amanda Nunez and Dustin Poorier were 810 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 4: both uncharacteristically undisciplined on this night. Poorier was self critical 811 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,319 Speaker 4: for brawling early or do you not believe that to 812 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 4: be the case. 813 00:39:38,560 --> 00:39:41,040 Speaker 3: Well, then you know, hindsight is twenty twenty, So I 814 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:45,799 Speaker 3: think Amanda will be more technical. You know, she ended 815 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:49,640 Speaker 3: up giving Juliana exactly what she wanted, which was a brawl, 816 00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 3: a PO six brawl, and she's going to go back 817 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 3: and definitely try to correct that, be sure. 818 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 7: You know. 819 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,920 Speaker 3: It was similar. Look when Matt fort GSP, nobody thought 820 00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 3: Mac could throw his hands, and it was one thing 821 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,560 Speaker 3: he had, man, he had a really really hard right hand, 822 00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,280 Speaker 3: and he had the willingness to sit in the pocket 823 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 3: and get hit and fire back, period. And I think 824 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 3: at that point nobody really knew that except for us, 825 00:40:12,160 --> 00:40:15,080 Speaker 3: and I knew if GSP. You know, I think GSP 826 00:40:15,239 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 3: thought that fight was going to go to the floor. 827 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:19,360 Speaker 3: Kenny and Matt had no intentions of ever going to 828 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 3: the floor in that fight. So I think that was 829 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,880 Speaker 3: kind of similar that you know this girl, you know, 830 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 3: That's why I say when GSP came out with a 831 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 3: game plan the second time, he had to rethink everything 832 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 3: and he kind of got into, you know, maybe a 833 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 3: brawl with Matt, which was beneficial to him. And I 834 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 3: think juliannaerl I mean, I think a mandre will do 835 00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:41,640 Speaker 3: the same thing. She definitely got into a brawl. She 836 00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 3: wasn't ready for it. I think she tanked out when 837 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:46,879 Speaker 3: she couldn't get rid of us. She's dropped a lot 838 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 3: of people, and that's also psychologically, you know, undermining to oneself. 839 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 3: When you're hitting a person with your best shots and 840 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 3: they're not going any and you're starting to go. You know, 841 00:40:58,080 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 3: you're looking up at the clock and you got three 842 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 3: rounds to go, I could get to you a little bit. 843 00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:05,240 Speaker 3: And I think that's what happened. You know, she Julianna 844 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 3: got the fight that she wanted. That's who she is. 845 00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 3: She just steps in and throws. I'm saying like again, 846 00:41:10,320 --> 00:41:13,080 Speaker 3: wasn't the most technical striking. She was pulling her arms back, 847 00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,840 Speaker 3: she was a little off bounds, but the willingness to 848 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 3: trade to get what she wanted was one hundred percent on. 849 00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, Ray, I would say the difference also, you know, 850 00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 6: with Matt, both it's a credit to his power and 851 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,080 Speaker 6: the fact that it just went down that way. He 852 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 6: landed just a couple of shots and it was pretty 853 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:37,360 Speaker 6: much over shortly thereafter. But Nuna's was repeatedly exchanging for me, 854 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 6: you know, it wasn't like you know, oh she got 855 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:42,399 Speaker 6: caught with a big shot and then you know, got 856 00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:46,320 Speaker 6: finished off. She was sitting there trading again and again 857 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:48,360 Speaker 6: and again, expecting a different result. 858 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,319 Speaker 4: And that's just not her style of fight. So no, but. 859 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, but Penny in the past though, when she hit 860 00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:57,560 Speaker 3: like Cyborg and she hit some other people, they want 861 00:41:57,600 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 3: to sleep, right, you know. And then you so look, 862 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 3: your ego gets what's the first thing somebody punches you, 863 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,040 Speaker 3: what do you do? Oh, I'm gonna start jamming. No, 864 00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:06,319 Speaker 3: you want to kill them right away? 865 00:42:07,160 --> 00:42:09,440 Speaker 4: Now, my emotions took over, no question. 866 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,839 Speaker 3: Was an emotional fight that worked the herd disadvantage. That's 867 00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,040 Speaker 3: the end of the story. Yeah, I mean that to 868 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 3: me anyway. 869 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:19,920 Speaker 4: Yes here six brawl right also. 870 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: Was entertaining as hell. But you know, I'm sure her 871 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 3: coaches aren't happy, you know not, you know, Uh, let 872 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,399 Speaker 3: me just say another thing. Julianna's jib really oh yeah, 873 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,839 Speaker 3: you know, there was a reach that was the other 874 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 3: thing her jib was getting there before Amandas was too. 875 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 3: I think she was out jamming her and that set 876 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 3: up everything. 877 00:42:40,120 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, Wayne Gregory boxing Baby Here sticks Brawl is print 878 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 4: the shirts, by the way, so we're redesigning the ray 879 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 4: Longo fights is now what I hear?

I 881 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 4: had nothing to do with this. And I wore the 882 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 4: Ray Longo Fight Team sweatshirt and uh, I did some 883 00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,000 Speaker 4: me the in the ray Longo Fight Team sweatshirt.

I you know, 891 00:43:24,200 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 3: it's almost like DC and Cruise. I think this should 892 00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 3: be handled yeah instead of in public? What is going on? 893 00:43:31,600 --> 00:43:35,320 Speaker 3: And wait? First, I love that church. I love that one. 894 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, pod boys, it's great.

What he This is 900 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,200 Speaker 3: what I love about the guy because this is with 901 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 3: his stubbornness really pays off because he don't want to 902 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,399 Speaker 3: go out like that again. So he really did come 903 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:11,560 Speaker 3: back and I can't He's a natural born fight at 904 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:14,839 Speaker 3: this guy, and he what a great performance coming back 905 00:44:14,840 --> 00:44:18,200 Speaker 3: from the adversity that we kind of I was at 906 00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 3: least making jokes about, you know, only because for whatever reason, 907 00:44:21,480 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 3: I don't know, But I heer apology. He proved lest 908 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:27,640 Speaker 3: he proved everybody wrong. Yeah, that guy, you know herb 909 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:29,399 Speaker 3: let the fight go on. And man, he came back 910 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,719 Speaker 3: and did exactly what he said he would have did 911 00:44:31,920 --> 00:44:34,080 Speaker 3: in the other fight. And I gotta respect that at 912 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:36,120 Speaker 3: the end of the day. Yeah, that guy had a 913 00:44:36,120 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 3: phenomenal fight. Again, I think no one will even remember 914 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 3: it because of all the other fights that happened. But 915 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 3: that's one thing. 916 00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:46,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, one thing I've always known about Domina Cruz Kenny 917 00:44:46,960 --> 00:44:48,799 Speaker 4: is that he can take a beating if he needs to. 918 00:44:48,920 --> 00:44:51,520 Speaker 4: He reminds me of that all the time in our conversations, 919 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 4: that he's prepared and willing to take damage. You know, 920 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:55,960 Speaker 4: I want to tell a story as quickly as I can. 921 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,319 Speaker 4: But you know, the first time I talked to him 922 00:44:57,320 --> 00:45:00,640 Speaker 4: about striking is like, he says, those are swords as 923 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 4: far as I'm concerned, that are coming at my head. Right. 924 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 4: So a lot of his stuff obviously is predicated upon defense, 925 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 4: which he turns into offense, you know. But it's just 926 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 4: fascinating to listen to him talk about the challenge of 927 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,919 Speaker 4: fighting a southpaw Casey Kenny right, and wanting a full 928 00:45:15,000 --> 00:45:18,040 Speaker 4: south paw training camp, and then the enjoyment of going 929 00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,440 Speaker 4: back to fighting a conventional fighter to really let his 930 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 4: combinations go. And I don't know, man, he's just so 931 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:26,920 Speaker 4: all about this. And you know, he's not taken television 932 00:45:26,960 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 4: money for four months because he's totally devoted to this result. 933 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:32,600 Speaker 4: And you know, he just got a lot more rounds 934 00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:36,799 Speaker 4: in this time around than last time. But you know, 935 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 4: the whole reason he was discovered by Eric Delfierra was 936 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:42,239 Speaker 4: because Eric was running a promotion and they brought dom 937 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 4: In on short notice to get beat by somebody else, 938 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:47,160 Speaker 4: and dom took an absolute beating in like his second 939 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:49,200 Speaker 4: pro fight, but he beat the guy and then he 940 00:45:49,320 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 4: signed with Eric and the rest is history. But he 941 00:45:51,160 --> 00:45:54,839 Speaker 4: can take damage, took some early and turn things around. Yeah. 942 00:45:54,960 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 6: I think because he's such a technical fighter, and because 943 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 6: he's got that crazy footwork and he doesn't try to 944 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:04,120 Speaker 6: get hit, you forget that. That gets all the shine, 945 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:06,719 Speaker 6: and rightfully so, because he's a phenomenal. 946 00:46:06,239 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 4: Martial artist, but he does it the right way. 947 00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:15,120 Speaker 6: He has his heart just in case if shit goes sideways, 948 00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 6: He's got his heart to back it up. And if 949 00:46:18,120 --> 00:46:19,960 Speaker 6: you think, oh well, he doesn't like to get hit, 950 00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:21,359 Speaker 6: he's probably not tough. 951 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,319 Speaker 4: But if I rock him with a good shot, that's 952 00:46:23,360 --> 00:46:25,400 Speaker 4: where I'm gonna take. No wrong. 953 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 6: Dominic Cruise will still come at you. He's as tough 954 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,320 Speaker 6: as nails. And he reminds me he's like, dude, I'm 955 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,359 Speaker 6: from a trailer in Arizona. Man, I'm as tough as 956 00:46:33,440 --> 00:46:36,000 Speaker 6: it come, you know. And he's from a tough town. 957 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,919 Speaker 6: And you know he's this good looking kid. He dresses nice. 958 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:42,239 Speaker 6: You think you know he's from this nice part of town. 959 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 4: You're happy to hear compliment. Yeah, very happy Ken Flow 960 00:46:47,360 --> 00:46:54,360 Speaker 4: about his fashion for me. Kem Flow is eight, so no, 961 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:59,560 Speaker 4: it's awesome perform. I went to a an after party 962 00:46:59,560 --> 00:47:02,280 Speaker 4: in my red Longo fight team sweatshirt. That's how fashion 963 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:02,880 Speaker 4: forward I am. 964 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,759 Speaker 3: And I tried to wear the John you know, the 965 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 3: Anik Florian podcast shirt, but they made us wear UFC shirt, 966 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:11,759 Speaker 3: so I had to put it over. 967 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 4: I appreciate that. Yeah, Ray Longo minute mask at the wedding. 968 00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:22,640 Speaker 3: How funny was that Gameless self promotion man? Always in gear? 969 00:47:22,719 --> 00:47:26,040 Speaker 3: Now totally different, but yeah, heads off to Dom man. 970 00:47:26,239 --> 00:47:29,600 Speaker 3: I I really love what I saw. And again he's 971 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,759 Speaker 3: he could He talks to talk and he can walk 972 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,000 Speaker 3: the walk. And you know, at the end of the day, 973 00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:36,440 Speaker 3: all you could do is respect that that's a period 974 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 3: he's you know, I always liked him, but this was 975 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:41,799 Speaker 3: this was a different. This was good. It was like 976 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:47,799 Speaker 3: redemption for him. So I know he feels good about everything, and. 977 00:47:46,480 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 4: And I just have to say, you know, I'm not 978 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 4: going to get into anything as far as the Daniel 979 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:53,440 Speaker 4: Cormier Domino Cruz situation is concerned, but in terms of 980 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:58,000 Speaker 4: Dom's ability to not let anything else in, He'll create 981 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 4: a distraction for himself during fight week because he knows 982 00:48:00,719 --> 00:48:03,799 Speaker 4: it's not going to be a distraction because he's so 983 00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:07,960 Speaker 4: mentally forged and physically hardened after everything that he's been through. 984 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:10,879 Speaker 4: You know, he's done a lot of work on self, right, 985 00:48:10,920 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 4: I'm not going to get into some of this. Yeah, 986 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,279 Speaker 4: he spent over five thousand dollars in physical therapy, you know, 987 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:18,719 Speaker 4: I mean, like the dude is. 988 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, he said, look what he's gone through to what 989 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 3: that's just to mentally get through that, those injuries and 990 00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 3: being out for a year, two years whatever. A golden bag, 991 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,319 Speaker 3: you know it. I've seen it in here. It's it's 992 00:48:32,360 --> 00:48:35,520 Speaker 3: a horrible thing to look at. So Pat's up to him. 993 00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:38,800 Speaker 4: Again, Kenny, what'd you make of Sean O'Malley over Halle 994 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 4: and Piva. 995 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 6: O'Malley's a damn problem man, you know, Yeah, here's another guy. 996 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 6: If you get distracted by the hair and what he says, 997 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:53,319 Speaker 6: you forget that. This dude's dangerous man, tall, lanky for 998 00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 6: the division, and boy does he know how. 999 00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,720 Speaker 4: To use it. Moves really well. 1000 00:48:57,760 --> 00:48:57,880 Speaker 1: Man. 1001 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 6: He's nice. He's just nice with the skills of the 1002 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 6: way to say it. He's extremely technical. He knows how 1003 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:06,560 Speaker 6: to sit down in his punches when it's time to 1004 00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 6: get power. 1005 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:08,280 Speaker 4: Uh. 1006 00:49:08,320 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 6: And if you are one of those guys who doesn't 1007 00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 6: have superior defense and unbelievable footwork, O'Malley's going to get 1008 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:18,600 Speaker 6: you out of there. It's kind of that simple, or 1009 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,480 Speaker 6: you're going to take a beating in the process. O'Malley 1010 00:49:21,600 --> 00:49:23,160 Speaker 6: is a phenomenal fighter. 1011 00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:25,720 Speaker 4: Uh. He continues to get better and sharper. 1012 00:49:26,160 --> 00:49:29,240 Speaker 6: And here's another guy who is taking the right fights 1013 00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:31,759 Speaker 6: and getting the right experience and building off of that 1014 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 6: every single time, which is going to increase his confidence, 1015 00:49:35,080 --> 00:49:36,880 Speaker 6: increase his skills. 1016 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:37,640 Speaker 4: He's he's doing. 1017 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:41,040 Speaker 6: A lot right out there, and you know, he's he's 1018 00:49:41,080 --> 00:49:42,760 Speaker 6: going to be a handful for a lot of guys 1019 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 6: in that division and he just might be able to 1020 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 6: fight for the belt and win the belt. 1021 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:48,040 Speaker 3: Right. 1022 00:49:48,080 --> 00:49:49,080 Speaker 4: What he got looks. 1023 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 3: Well well put. And I think the biggest thing Kenny 1024 00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:55,719 Speaker 3: said in there is that he's had the opportunity to 1025 00:49:55,760 --> 00:49:57,960 Speaker 3: get these growing fights in you know what I mean, 1026 00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 3: and not definitely he has not been over match Jet 1027 00:50:00,680 --> 00:50:05,360 Speaker 3: at all for his you know, uh, talent pool, which 1028 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 3: is huge. I mean, the guy really like again, he 1029 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 3: knows how to uses range. He also knows how to 1030 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:14,400 Speaker 3: stop and sit down on those punches, and that's a 1031 00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 3: long guy to get pissed, you know. So I think, 1032 00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:19,919 Speaker 3: you know again, they afforded him the opportunity to grow 1033 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 3: the right way, and like Kenny says, that confidence is critical. 1034 00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:27,960 Speaker 3: Uh And look, Morob cooled for that fight when we 1035 00:50:27,960 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 3: were in Moscow. How many years ago was that? 1036 00:50:30,080 --> 00:50:31,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what I'm saying. 1037 00:50:31,440 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 3: So they were going to stay away from him. Now 1038 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:36,439 Speaker 3: it's it's an interesting matchup. You know, Morob just wants 1039 00:50:36,480 --> 00:50:38,640 Speaker 3: to he wants to fight the best guys. It's not 1040 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:42,839 Speaker 3: a personal thing. But that's not an easy fight for anybody. Man. 1041 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:48,799 Speaker 3: I mean tough, but you know, to have a you know, 1042 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 3: to have a pal hanging on your leg for fifteen 1043 00:50:52,719 --> 00:50:54,719 Speaker 3: or twenty five minutes is no picnic game. Yeah. 1044 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,360 Speaker 4: No, I think most of these guys just seem a 1045 00:50:58,400 --> 00:51:01,239 Speaker 4: robb D Wallace Willie in the bracket, just like ough Man. 1046 00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:01,719 Speaker 4: You know. 1047 00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:06,759 Speaker 3: Again, again, no mention that, no mention his name for 1048 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 3: matchups with anybody. You go to those fights to make 1049 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 3: or whatever. I just I'm just curious to see if 1050 00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:14,920 Speaker 3: anybody picks I think guy's rit What is he ranked 1051 00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:15,920 Speaker 3: five or six. 1052 00:51:16,440 --> 00:51:19,040 Speaker 4: And I think a lot of the elite guys are 1053 00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:23,440 Speaker 4: strikers and their managers would try to avoid that matchup 1054 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,400 Speaker 4: en route to the title, right, I mean, do you 1055 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,640 Speaker 4: think Sean O'Malley's ready for Corey Sandhagen? 1056 00:51:29,800 --> 00:51:30,840 Speaker 3: You're oh, you're asking me? 1057 00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:33,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, just as an example, I mean, Sanagan's coming off 1058 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:34,680 Speaker 4: a loss. He's number three in the world, you know. 1059 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 4: I mean, what do you think is a more dangerous 1060 00:51:36,960 --> 00:51:39,759 Speaker 4: fight for O'Malley, sand Haagen or Dwallash WILLI right? I mean, 1061 00:51:40,440 --> 00:51:44,920 Speaker 4: eventually Morob's gonna get his fight. But the notion that 1062 00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 4: Chaan O'Malley is not elite. I mean, Kyler Phillips is 1063 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 4: really fucking good. He was number fourteen in the world 1064 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:51,120 Speaker 4: when he fought Halley and Piad. They go to to toe, 1065 00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:53,840 Speaker 4: could have gone either way majority decision, you know. And 1066 00:51:53,880 --> 00:51:56,799 Speaker 4: then O'Malley fights the guy even more entrenched in the 1067 00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:00,800 Speaker 4: bandamweight division. And you know, so O'Malley's top ten Vandam 1068 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:02,399 Speaker 4: White for me very good. 1069 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 3: I agree, one hundred percent, and he could fight probably anybody. 1070 00:52:06,000 --> 00:52:08,919 Speaker 3: Would it be too soon? Yeah, there's a you know, look, 1071 00:52:08,920 --> 00:52:11,799 Speaker 3: if you have the opportunity because the UFC is tough. 1072 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,560 Speaker 3: It's not like boxing where you could have twenty five 1073 00:52:14,640 --> 00:52:18,759 Speaker 3: fights without really getting super tested and build your record up. 1074 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,960 Speaker 3: It's hard in the UFC. Man these fights, some of 1075 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:23,319 Speaker 3: these guys that come in. That's why I say, I 1076 00:52:23,320 --> 00:52:25,000 Speaker 3: tell my guys, when you get in there, you want 1077 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 3: to rush it, but you're you're stupid because when you 1078 00:52:27,960 --> 00:52:30,120 Speaker 3: get in there, there's no looking back. You're not going 1079 00:52:30,200 --> 00:52:32,279 Speaker 3: to be able to pick your opponents. You're going to 1080 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:35,960 Speaker 3: get thrown to the wolves, possibly right away, you know 1081 00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:40,120 Speaker 3: what I mean? And uh yeah, O'Malley's ready to fight anybody, 1082 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:42,080 Speaker 3: but I don't think it would be the smartest thing 1083 00:52:42,120 --> 00:52:45,560 Speaker 3: to do. But technically his skill set is up there 1084 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:46,840 Speaker 3: with everybody else, says Jenny. 1085 00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 4: And he has a great inner circle, right, Brandon Harris 1086 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,960 Speaker 4: and Takeno Mendez, Right, I mean Augusta Mendez. How good 1087 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:52,200 Speaker 4: is that? 1088 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 3: Right? 1089 00:52:52,680 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 4: Teacher need jiu jitsu every goddamn day? Just you right? 1090 00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:57,359 Speaker 4: And Tim Welch, I mean, the guy's got a whole 1091 00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:59,480 Speaker 4: training camp built around him. Was able to win this 1092 00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 4: fight the fact that he had a rib injury and 1093 00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:03,680 Speaker 4: couldn't grapple at all. I'm very interested to see what 1094 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,880 Speaker 4: happens Cody real quick. If you could throw the bandham 1095 00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 4: Way top fifteen or even top ten in the side, 1096 00:53:08,560 --> 00:53:11,440 Speaker 4: that would be outstanding ken flow. I think Cruz and 1097 00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 4: O'Malley is a fight that they would try to put together. 1098 00:53:14,200 --> 00:53:17,520 Speaker 4: I think for Dominic Cruz, there are two parts of this, right. 1099 00:53:18,080 --> 00:53:20,680 Speaker 4: There's the strategy in terms of the matchup, and I 1100 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:23,880 Speaker 4: think maybe there are better matchups for him than Sean O'Malley, 1101 00:53:23,920 --> 00:53:25,879 Speaker 4: if I'm being honest. And then there's the rankings part 1102 00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:27,879 Speaker 4: of this that you can always sort of lean into 1103 00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 4: as well. If you are really trying to fight guys 1104 00:53:30,000 --> 00:53:32,800 Speaker 4: above you, Cruz is going to be number eight or higher. 1105 00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:35,640 Speaker 4: But once we see this in the side, I'm going 1106 00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 4: to have you guys do a little bit of matchmaking 1107 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 4: with me, because I do think that you talk about 1108 00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:42,600 Speaker 4: Jose Aldo and Frankie Edgar and Dominic Cruz, right these three. 1109 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 4: I know, Frankie's not a former WEC guy, but former 1110 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:49,239 Speaker 4: major champions, right. The Cruz Edgar fight I think is 1111 00:53:49,239 --> 00:53:52,480 Speaker 4: probably less interesting now because Cruz has this momentum and 1112 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,600 Speaker 4: Frankie doesn't. Jose Aldo is too high in the rankings 1113 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:58,000 Speaker 4: in my opinion to do the Aldo Cruz fight right now, 1114 00:53:58,000 --> 00:54:00,400 Speaker 4: and Aldo seems to have clear intentions as to what 1115 00:54:00,440 --> 00:54:04,400 Speaker 4: he wants to do. But I mean, you're got, you 1116 00:54:04,440 --> 00:54:07,280 Speaker 4: got the champion, and then you have another guy Ray obviously, 1117 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 4: I mean, how good is thirty five right now? 1118 00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 3: Right? 1119 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:17,759 Speaker 4: Aljamin Dila, Shaw Aldo, San Haagen, Font morob On and 1120 00:54:17,800 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 4: on it goes Cruise. 1121 00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:23,360 Speaker 3: And listen to first some people, Yeah, Killa is Yeah. 1122 00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 3: I mean, look, I think Dom's thing now is that 1123 00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:28,680 Speaker 3: the only thing he's fighting is getting older, because his 1124 00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,879 Speaker 3: style of fighting is definitely suited to a young guy's game, right, 1125 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:34,879 Speaker 3: you got to be able to move for twenty five 1126 00:54:34,920 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 3: minutes like that, and I think we saw a glimpse 1127 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:41,920 Speaker 3: of like Pedro just catching him in between switches, like yeah, 1128 00:54:42,320 --> 00:54:44,840 Speaker 3: you know, I think like even O'Malley with that extra 1129 00:54:45,480 --> 00:54:47,479 Speaker 3: five inches of reach is going to make a huge 1130 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 3: difference in that fight. He's not going to have a 1131 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 3: reach advantage, and you get Court jumping around, he might 1132 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,960 Speaker 3: have a little I think that's a problem fight for 1133 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 3: Dominic Cruz. 1134 00:54:56,200 --> 00:55:00,359 Speaker 4: Yeah right, well no, right, and I don't think it's 1135 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:03,359 Speaker 4: gonna materialize, you know. And yeah, obviously I mean for 1136 00:55:03,440 --> 00:55:06,239 Speaker 4: dom to position himself with one more win even into 1137 00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 4: the top three. Uh, he knows it's going to be 1138 00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 4: exceedingly difficult.

I would have just bopped 1173 00:56:42,320 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 4: you guys out and done a little interview there. 1174 00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:51,360 Speaker 3: Us pageous energy on this guy outstanding, and you know, 1175 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 3: the only guy that keeps up with Morob is this 1176 00:56:53,719 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 3: guy right here. You know. 1177 00:56:55,040 --> 00:56:56,440 Speaker 4: That's me. 1178 00:56:57,239 --> 00:56:59,880 Speaker 3: Sunday. Then I fly to uston Sunday. We have Nas 1179 00:57:00,280 --> 00:57:02,640 Speaker 3: Saudi Cuff. I hope I'm saying the name right, But 1180 00:57:02,840 --> 00:57:07,600 Speaker 3: Nazine fighting, Uh before I forget the promotion, Damn, I 1181 00:57:07,600 --> 00:57:09,440 Speaker 3: don't know. But he's fighting Sunday night. So it's a 1182 00:57:09,480 --> 00:57:12,279 Speaker 3: busy weekend coming up. But I think all three guys 1183 00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:13,719 Speaker 3: should be in the UFC this year. 1184 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 4: So my grandfather was Howard Grayson, right, and so we 1185 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,760 Speaker 4: were naming my son something with the letter H right. 1186 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,680 Speaker 4: I have my my grandfather's old paperweight right here with 1187 00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:26,800 Speaker 4: the letter H right. So we were gonna name my 1188 00:57:26,960 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 4: son Houston. And part of the reason we didn't is 1189 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,760 Speaker 4: because guys like Younga Longo throw a fucking y on 1190 00:57:31,840 --> 00:57:35,880 Speaker 4: the front of it and say Houston. So we named 1191 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:36,840 Speaker 4: him Hunter instead. 1192 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 3: Oh well look, oh now he's a linguistics major. 1193 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,520 Speaker 4: So people from New York, they just think they can 1194 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:48,360 Speaker 4: squeeze me manipulate language. However, they want Houston because from 1195 00:57:48,480 --> 00:57:48,919 Speaker 4: New York. 1196 00:57:50,120 --> 00:57:53,320 Speaker 3: Got a problem. Well, you know what's next to Houston? 1197 00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:53,560 Speaker 5: Right? 1198 00:57:54,360 --> 00:57:59,720 Speaker 3: What's that Easton? Wait? Listen one quick thing? You know 1199 00:57:59,760 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 3: what's funny with this card? And I think this I 1200 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 3: texted you, I think this is one of the best 1201 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:08,919 Speaker 3: cards ever one through fifteen. I think, I mean, even 1202 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:13,360 Speaker 3: the Blanchefield Maverick fight what a great I mean, I'm 1203 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:15,760 Speaker 3: gonna say eight plus to the matchmakers. Man, they mentioned 1204 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:18,360 Speaker 3: the two young girls that, I mean, that was a 1205 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 3: phenomenal fight. And Blanchefield, Man, she came out and shut 1206 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:26,920 Speaker 3: down Miranda better than I thought she was going to 1207 00:58:26,960 --> 00:58:28,960 Speaker 3: be able to. But you know, that's a girl that's 1208 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:30,360 Speaker 3: been in the gym. I can't say, I know, but 1209 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,560 Speaker 3: she would fall at Mizuki. But all I could say 1210 00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:34,120 Speaker 3: is that every time I saw her, she would get 1211 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:37,080 Speaker 3: better and better. Really nice people are in a coach 1212 00:58:38,680 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 3: just seemed like they got they got a shot. Man, 1213 00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:42,800 Speaker 3: I think that girl's going somewhere. I like where head's 1214 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:46,280 Speaker 3: at twenty two years old. You know, another East Coast girl. 1215 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:48,720 Speaker 3: So that's good. But I mean we could talk about 1216 00:58:48,960 --> 00:58:51,919 Speaker 3: you know, I'm glad your guy got back on track 1217 00:58:52,280 --> 00:58:54,560 Speaker 3: to who even gonna remember whit hole fight? 1218 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:58,600 Speaker 4: This is crazy every stiva obviously Selden Jordan Wright was 1219 00:58:58,640 --> 00:59:02,040 Speaker 4: great matchmaking and a big win for Bruno and uh 1220 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:04,920 Speaker 4: obviously Andre Mooniz, who we sort of talked about off 1221 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,920 Speaker 4: the top of the show. Yeah, it was a good 1222 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:08,640 Speaker 4: night all around. Man. We didn't even get to Kai 1223 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 4: car France And there's a lot of talking points on 1224 00:59:11,880 --> 00:59:12,520 Speaker 4: both sides of that. 1225 00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:14,320 Speaker 3: What do you do with that?

So Cody Garbrandt was 1230 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:25,919 Speaker 4: thirty two and one as an amateur boxer. He played 1231 00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 4: middle linebacker in the Great State of Ohio high level 1232 00:59:28,920 --> 00:59:30,680 Speaker 4: high school football, and he did so at like one 1233 00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:33,280 Speaker 4: hundred and thirty five pounds. You know, there's a lot 1234 00:59:33,320 --> 00:59:35,280 Speaker 4: of m M A miles on his brain and on 1235 00:59:35,400 --> 00:59:37,520 Speaker 4: his body as well. And you know, part of the 1236 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 4: the discussion is on his ability or lack thereof to 1237 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:44,800 Speaker 4: take a shot, you know. But I don't know. I mean, 1238 00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:47,400 Speaker 4: take nothing away from Kai car France here for me. 1239 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:49,440 Speaker 4: You know, that guy, I didn't think he could be 1240 00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:51,240 Speaker 4: a world champion until I watched him that right now. 1241 00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 3: No, no, no, he fought like eve as those he fights. 1242 00:59:55,680 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 3: He the one of those guys.

The thing with the football, I think 1246 01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:09,360 Speaker 3: the football is even worse than the uh the amateur boxing. 1247 01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:12,360 Speaker 3: To be honest with you that that I don't think 1248 01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:14,480 Speaker 3: those guys get out of there alive. Man, that's a 1249 01:00:15,280 --> 01:00:18,480 Speaker 3: that's sports vicious. How on. These are young guys, so 1250 01:00:18,600 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 3: they were already probably make a modifications to everything.

Once you get 1301 01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 5: in his guard, you can't just stand up, you know 1302 01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:45,960 Speaker 5: what I mean, Like it's super dangerous to do that. 1303 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:48,400 Speaker 5: So he does a really good job forcing his game 1304 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:51,200 Speaker 5: on you, and we just couldn't capitalize on it. 1305 01:02:51,240 --> 01:02:51,360 Speaker 4: There. 1306 01:02:51,480 --> 01:02:53,960 Speaker 5: We just made a couple of big mistakes that uh, 1307 01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 5: I should say there's a couple of big mistakes that 1308 01:02:57,400 --> 01:02:59,959 Speaker 5: ended up being big mistake. A couple of little mistake 1309 01:03:00,160 --> 01:03:01,760 Speaker 5: ended up being big mistakes in there. You can't you 1310 01:03:01,800 --> 01:03:03,840 Speaker 5: can't make against an elite level guy like Ryan Home. 1311 01:03:04,280 --> 01:03:06,760 Speaker 4: So when you're coaching by the time like Dustin and 1312 01:03:06,920 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 4: Charles are fighting, where are you? Are you still at 1313 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:10,280 Speaker 4: the arena? Are you back at the hotel? 1314 01:03:10,400 --> 01:03:12,600 Speaker 5: Oh no, no, no, we're back at the hotel before 1315 01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:13,400 Speaker 5: the end of the next. 1316 01:03:13,320 --> 01:03:15,880 Speaker 4: Fight, right, So did you watch it? 1317 01:03:16,000 --> 01:03:17,760 Speaker 5: If you lose, if you if you win, there's if 1318 01:03:17,800 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 5: you win, there's like if you win, there's like media 1319 01:03:20,200 --> 01:03:21,960 Speaker 5: and stuff like that. You'll it'll be like two or 1320 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:23,360 Speaker 5: three fights, you know what I mean. But like, if 1321 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:25,200 Speaker 5: you lose, you're back at the hotel before the next 1322 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 5: fight end. 1323 01:03:25,800 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 4: Right, So did you watch the main event Dustin and Charles? 1324 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 5: Oh? 1325 01:03:29,520 --> 01:03:30,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, absolutely? 1326 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 4: You got any thoughts for that real quick. 1327 01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, dude, both those guys are so incredible 1328 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 5: and and uh, this has been talked about quite quite 1329 01:03:39,640 --> 01:03:44,520 Speaker 5: a bit. But whatever whatever questions we had about Ali 1330 01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 5: Vera's heart, especially you know, I know Kenny and I 1331 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 5: have kind of talked about that, you know, like when 1332 01:03:50,280 --> 01:03:51,880 Speaker 5: it gets to the deep end, you know, I can't 1333 01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:53,320 Speaker 5: I said this all week, when it gets to the deepen, 1334 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:55,480 Speaker 5: there's nobody I'd rather be by my side than Dustin Fourier. 1335 01:03:55,800 --> 01:03:59,080 Speaker 5: And I still stand by that. But Charles Olivera's on 1336 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 5: that list now too, where where it was the opposite before. 1337 01:04:01,640 --> 01:04:03,360 Speaker 5: You know, he showed that he's got some fanassy and 1338 01:04:03,400 --> 01:04:05,320 Speaker 5: he wants to win just as much as the next guy. 1339 01:04:05,640 --> 01:04:08,320 Speaker 5: And he got hit a lot, and man, he just 1340 01:04:08,520 --> 01:04:13,040 Speaker 5: I think he executed his plan perfectly because I don't 1341 01:04:13,080 --> 01:04:15,120 Speaker 5: think those takedowns would have been there early in the fight. 1342 01:04:16,040 --> 01:04:18,880 Speaker 5: And he just really got Dustin thinking striking, striking striking, 1343 01:04:19,080 --> 01:04:24,040 Speaker 5: and man, his ability to jump on somebody. And I 1344 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:26,200 Speaker 5: said this, like, it's not just the jiu jitsu on 1345 01:04:26,240 --> 01:04:28,680 Speaker 5: the ground, on on like standing on on his on 1346 01:04:29,080 --> 01:04:32,120 Speaker 5: his back, He's the problem in jiu jitsu on standing too, 1347 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,520 Speaker 5: you know, And Uh, he's just so good. He's so 1348 01:04:34,680 --> 01:04:38,680 Speaker 5: dangerous everywhere, man, very very few guys on this planet Earth. 1349 01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:40,000 Speaker 5: And this is why I think he's so good, is 1350 01:04:40,680 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 5: does he have danger factors striking? 1351 01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:42,320 Speaker 7: Now? 1352 01:04:42,360 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 5: Which where did that come from? You know what I mean? 1353 01:04:44,360 --> 01:04:46,840 Speaker 5: That's why I left Field. He's got danger in the wrestling, 1354 01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:49,000 Speaker 5: He's got danger when you wrestle. He's he is one 1355 01:04:49,000 --> 01:04:51,840 Speaker 5: of the most dangerous fighters. But he's also well rounded. 1356 01:04:51,920 --> 01:04:54,520 Speaker 5: Like Ryan Hall is extremely dangerous, but his overall game 1357 01:04:54,600 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 5: really isn't complete. Charles Elvera has it all, man. He's 1358 01:04:57,840 --> 01:05:01,800 Speaker 5: an elite level striker, a very grappler. He russells well 1359 01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 5: like yeah, he can sub you standing like he's got 1360 01:05:04,840 --> 01:05:06,480 Speaker 5: it all man. He's gonna be a little tough to beat. 1361 01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:08,240 Speaker 5: And I gotta be honest with you, I wish we 1362 01:05:08,240 --> 01:05:09,200 Speaker 5: could see him, kabebe. 1363 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:11,400 Speaker 4: I know, I know a lot of people have been 1364 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:14,000 Speaker 4: talking about that. I share your sentiments. All right, We 1365 01:05:14,120 --> 01:05:16,200 Speaker 4: got some main card picks for this weekend at UFC 1366 01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 4: Fight Night, Lewis versus Dacas and let us get to 1367 01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 4: Cubs Swanson and Darren Elkins here featherweight fight that I 1368 01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 4: believe opens the main card. Cub Swanson minus two hundred 1369 01:05:25,360 --> 01:05:29,000 Speaker 4: Darren Elkins plus one seventy. All right, so busy weekend 1370 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:31,240 Speaker 4: last week for Team Alfamel. I think three guys and 1371 01:05:31,360 --> 01:05:35,000 Speaker 4: right back at your Elkins the underdog against Swanson. So 1372 01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:37,040 Speaker 4: Cub James was on a two fight winning streak going 1373 01:05:37,080 --> 01:05:40,040 Speaker 4: into twenty twenty one, fought just sixty three seconds this 1374 01:05:40,160 --> 01:05:42,160 Speaker 4: year in a lost to Giga Chikadse. What do you 1375 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,840 Speaker 4: think about Swanson here against Darren the damage Elkins. 1376 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 5: Well, stylistically, I like the matchup. I like the matchup 1377 01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:51,200 Speaker 5: for Cub. You know, the game plan seems to be 1378 01:05:51,240 --> 01:05:56,160 Speaker 5: pretty simple. It's stopped to take down and just keep 1379 01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:57,880 Speaker 5: the fight standing. And I wouldn't eve worry about knocking 1380 01:05:57,920 --> 01:05:58,880 Speaker 5: him out, just picking at him. 1381 01:05:58,880 --> 01:05:59,000 Speaker 3: You know. 1382 01:06:00,360 --> 01:06:02,320 Speaker 5: That's easier said than done against the guy like Darren 1383 01:06:02,320 --> 01:06:04,480 Speaker 5: Elkins though. You know he's he's proven over and over 1384 01:06:04,600 --> 01:06:07,560 Speaker 5: time and time again that the best guy doesn't always win, 1385 01:06:07,640 --> 01:06:10,320 Speaker 5: you know what I mean? So, uh, I do, however, 1386 01:06:10,440 --> 01:06:13,680 Speaker 5: think Cub it's gonna get this one done. I think 1387 01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:16,320 Speaker 5: he'll he'll he'll pick his way and stuff is uh 1388 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:19,680 Speaker 5: stuff to takedowns to to a pretty decisive decision here. 1389 01:06:20,120 --> 01:06:23,200 Speaker 5: That's been the uh that's been the blueprint on how 1390 01:06:23,240 --> 01:06:26,320 Speaker 5: to beat Darren Elkins lately. Uh, And I do think 1391 01:06:26,320 --> 01:06:28,800 Speaker 5: Cub will get it done. Do I say it with 1392 01:06:29,000 --> 01:06:33,920 Speaker 5: like the utmost confidence? No, I don't, but I do. 1393 01:06:34,160 --> 01:06:35,600 Speaker 5: I do think he's gonna do enough to get it done. 1394 01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 5: I really do. 1395 01:06:36,520 --> 01:06:39,440 Speaker 4: Darren Alkins is bleeding right now in training. He's bleeding, 1396 01:06:39,560 --> 01:06:41,920 Speaker 4: but he won't be bleeding like by the time he 1397 01:06:41,960 --> 01:06:44,520 Speaker 4: gets to Vegas. Elkins has won two in a row 1398 01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:46,919 Speaker 4: Ken Flow performance of the night finish of Derek Minner 1399 01:06:46,960 --> 01:06:48,840 Speaker 4: in July. How do he handicap this one for him 1400 01:06:48,840 --> 01:06:49,240 Speaker 4: against Cup? 1401 01:06:49,400 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 5: Why are we bringing up old Ship? 1402 01:06:50,880 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 4: Hey? I mean, I'm just trying to set up you know. 1403 01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:55,080 Speaker 5: Why are we bringing up old ship? 1404 01:06:55,360 --> 01:06:58,440 Speaker 4: Fucking Chihuahua is out there, man, you know, God bless 1405 01:06:58,560 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 4: bro Listen. 1406 01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 6: I think Elkins is an intriguing underdog just based on 1407 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:11,280 Speaker 6: his ability to freaking survive. And sometimes we've seen Cubb 1408 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:17,320 Speaker 6: get caught up in some tough grappling exchanges, but I 1409 01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:20,120 Speaker 6: think Cub has enough to be able to ward off 1410 01:07:20,200 --> 01:07:23,080 Speaker 6: those attacks. I do think that Cub is a smart 1411 01:07:23,120 --> 01:07:24,760 Speaker 6: guy and is going to learn from a lot of 1412 01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:29,560 Speaker 6: Elkins's previous fights and understand that he needs to pace 1413 01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,520 Speaker 6: himself extremely well, and just because you're beating him up 1414 01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:37,200 Speaker 6: now doesn't mean you won't be beaten up later. Because 1415 01:07:37,280 --> 01:07:41,080 Speaker 6: Elkins is one of the craziest survivors I've seen compete 1416 01:07:41,120 --> 01:07:42,120 Speaker 6: inside the octagon. 1417 01:07:42,920 --> 01:07:44,400 Speaker 4: Cub is the more skillful guy. 1418 01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 6: That doesn't always equal wins, as James was talking about earlier, 1419 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:52,200 Speaker 6: but I do think he has enough firepower to ward 1420 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:55,360 Speaker 6: him off and win a decision or potentially a TKO. 1421 01:07:55,640 --> 01:07:57,720 Speaker 4: I think we have a new award coming to the 1422 01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:00,200 Speaker 4: AFPAS this year, like the Darren Elkins come Back of 1423 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:03,400 Speaker 4: the Year or something, so more later. All right, it's 1424 01:08:03,400 --> 01:08:06,160 Speaker 4: pretty good main card overall this weekend. At lightweight Mattage 1425 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:09,600 Speaker 4: Gamrock minus one eighty taken on twelve, Frank Diego Fajita 1426 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:14,120 Speaker 4: plus one fifty five. So Fajita has competed pretty well 1427 01:08:14,160 --> 01:08:15,880 Speaker 4: against some of the best guys in the world. James, 1428 01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,280 Speaker 4: I know obviously you know him pretty intimately, having prepared 1429 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:20,439 Speaker 4: Grant Dawson for him and then having that fight go away, 1430 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:22,599 Speaker 4: But he did go to a split against Nil Daryush 1431 01:08:22,800 --> 01:08:25,559 Speaker 4: had big moments against Gregor Gillespie before that fight kind 1432 01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:28,320 Speaker 4: of spun around, so what do you think about him 1433 01:08:28,360 --> 01:08:32,000 Speaker 4: here against the unranked Mattage Gamroth gamra about a two 1434 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:32,559 Speaker 4: to one favorite. 1435 01:08:33,880 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 5: Gamrock's tough man, and I don't think he is. I 1436 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:41,400 Speaker 5: think he's extremely underrated. He has a very complete game, 1437 01:08:41,439 --> 01:08:49,080 Speaker 5: good power, good wrestling, good cardio, goods, submissions. I'm gonna pick. 1438 01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:49,320 Speaker 3: Him to win. 1439 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:51,000 Speaker 5: But man, I don't like the line on it, you 1440 01:08:51,080 --> 01:08:52,559 Speaker 5: know what I mean, Like, I think it's a much more. 1441 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:54,320 Speaker 5: I think it's kind of a pick him. To be 1442 01:08:54,400 --> 01:08:56,960 Speaker 5: honest with you, I do think Gamrock's gonna get it done, 1443 01:08:57,000 --> 01:08:59,240 Speaker 5: and I Fajitas in the past has kind of showed 1444 01:08:59,280 --> 01:09:01,280 Speaker 5: me a he just seems to fade as the fight 1445 01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:03,960 Speaker 5: goes on. I think the weight cut of fifty five 1446 01:09:04,080 --> 01:09:05,280 Speaker 5: is tough on him. I don't think it's a card 1447 01:09:05,360 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 5: you issue. I think it's a weight cut issue. So 1448 01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 5: I'm picking. I'm gonna pick Gamrock to win by decision. 1449 01:09:11,280 --> 01:09:13,280 Speaker 5: But I do think the line should be a little 1450 01:09:13,280 --> 01:09:15,200 Speaker 5: bit closer, a lot closer. Actually, I think it should 1451 01:09:15,200 --> 01:09:16,120 Speaker 5: be a pick them very close to it. 1452 01:09:16,560 --> 01:09:18,960 Speaker 4: I feel like you can't talk about Diego Fijeda without 1453 01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:21,040 Speaker 4: bringing up the weight cut issues. At this point in time. 1454 01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:23,519 Speaker 4: You know he's had a lot of circumstances and fights 1455 01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:26,960 Speaker 4: go away late and Toronaldo fight, I think, not even 1456 01:09:26,960 --> 01:09:29,719 Speaker 4: getting to the scale. But Mataj's Gamrock can for American 1457 01:09:29,760 --> 01:09:32,400 Speaker 4: top team trained out of Poland nineteen and one never 1458 01:09:32,520 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 4: been finished. Submitted Jeremy Stevens with a Kamora back in July. 1459 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:37,280 Speaker 4: What do you think about him here trying to take 1460 01:09:37,479 --> 01:09:39,000 Speaker 4: the ranking of Diego Fajeda. 1461 01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:42,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, well see, I'm going to agree with James here. 1462 01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:44,120 Speaker 6: Not a whole lot to say on this. I think 1463 01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:47,519 Speaker 6: there's two differences here. Gamrock's wrestling, I think that's a factor, 1464 01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:52,360 Speaker 6: and I also think Diego's perhaps struggle with weight in 1465 01:09:52,479 --> 01:09:54,479 Speaker 6: the past. I think those are those are the two 1466 01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:58,240 Speaker 6: factors that I'm probably looking at most. But don't count 1467 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:01,639 Speaker 6: out Fajeda early in his fight. First seven minutes, first 1468 01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:03,840 Speaker 6: five minutes, watch out. He's always going to be a 1469 01:10:03,880 --> 01:10:06,760 Speaker 6: submission threat. But I like you, I'm rod here too. 1470 01:10:07,160 --> 01:10:09,600 Speaker 4: All right, next up? But ban him? Wait. Ricky Simone 1471 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:13,960 Speaker 4: a near three to one favorite. I'm surprised minus two 1472 01:10:14,000 --> 01:10:16,320 Speaker 4: to eighty halfay Ela Sunsow plus two to twenty five. 1473 01:10:17,000 --> 01:10:19,560 Speaker 4: The perennial top tenor of Sunsow has lost three in 1474 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 4: a row, and on the other side, Ricky Simone has 1475 01:10:21,360 --> 01:10:23,160 Speaker 4: won three in a row. I mean, you guys know 1476 01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:26,080 Speaker 4: Simone all offense, all the time. Uh never let you 1477 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:27,880 Speaker 4: breathe for a minute. What do you think about him 1478 01:10:27,880 --> 01:10:29,840 Speaker 4: here trying to move up against the sun Sow James. 1479 01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:34,720 Speaker 5: Ricky Simone has probably been the most profitable fighter of 1480 01:10:35,000 --> 01:10:36,760 Speaker 5: for me, Like, I've won a lot of money off 1481 01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:40,560 Speaker 5: this dude, and he has everything that I like in 1482 01:10:40,720 --> 01:10:44,080 Speaker 5: betting on somebody. He's always in shape, he's well rounded, 1483 01:10:44,520 --> 01:10:48,280 Speaker 5: he's very durable, he wrestles well, he's got a good 1484 01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 5: submission game, a decent amount of knockout power, and he's 1485 01:10:53,120 --> 01:10:56,760 Speaker 5: smart and he doesn't get off track like he's I 1486 01:10:56,760 --> 01:10:58,280 Speaker 5: don't want to say he's the same guy every time 1487 01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:00,639 Speaker 5: out because it seems like it's a disrespectful because obviously 1488 01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:02,599 Speaker 5: he gets better every time. But like I know, he's 1489 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,360 Speaker 5: going to show up every time like he's never has 1490 01:11:04,400 --> 01:11:07,200 Speaker 5: any mental lapses. He's consistent. Consistent the word I'm after 1491 01:11:07,520 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 5: that's if consistent is the word that I will usually 1492 01:11:09,880 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 5: describe Ricky Simone. He's very consistent and uh we for 1493 01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:20,479 Speaker 5: me a since out should the line be a little closer, probably, Yeah. 1494 01:11:21,280 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 5: But what I see the tail here of this fire 1495 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:25,600 Speaker 5: is I see a guy Ricky Simone doing this and 1496 01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:28,080 Speaker 5: a guy half since I was doing this. And that's 1497 01:11:28,160 --> 01:11:31,000 Speaker 5: no disrespect to since Ow. He's fought the who's who 1498 01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:33,880 Speaker 5: of the division, and he's been in that division for 1499 01:11:34,000 --> 01:11:36,680 Speaker 5: a very very very very long time. I think we 1500 01:11:36,760 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 5: were in the WBC together, Like we're talking a long 1501 01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:43,120 Speaker 5: long time. But all good things come to and end, right, 1502 01:11:43,160 --> 01:11:44,720 Speaker 5: And I just see one guy on his way up, 1503 01:11:44,760 --> 01:11:47,479 Speaker 5: and I see another guy his best days are behind him. 1504 01:11:48,280 --> 01:11:50,000 Speaker 5: You know, I think I do think the line should 1505 01:11:50,000 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 5: be a little closer. I'm going to take Simone by 1506 01:11:52,720 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 5: decision here though. 1507 01:11:53,880 --> 01:11:55,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree with everything out of your mouth essentially, 1508 01:11:55,880 --> 01:11:57,920 Speaker 4: kem full. What do you think Ricky Simone minus two 1509 01:11:57,920 --> 01:12:01,599 Speaker 4: to eighty hal fails Sun Sol plus two twenty five. Okay, well, 1510 01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:03,559 Speaker 4: you know this, this is interesting. 1511 01:12:03,840 --> 01:12:06,600 Speaker 6: I see value here in the underdog big time. I 1512 01:12:06,760 --> 01:12:08,519 Speaker 6: see this as an opportunity for me to pick up 1513 01:12:08,560 --> 01:12:11,400 Speaker 6: some points here as well. I do agree with a 1514 01:12:11,479 --> 01:12:13,560 Speaker 6: lot of what James said. I think Ricky Simone is 1515 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,320 Speaker 6: extremely consistent. You know what, guy is gonna show up 1516 01:12:16,360 --> 01:12:19,519 Speaker 6: every single time. He's as tough as nails. But we 1517 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,240 Speaker 6: also can't ignore what a sun Sow has accomplished. You know, 1518 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:24,439 Speaker 6: he's got to win over Rob font, He's got to 1519 01:12:24,439 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 6: win over Malon Morice, He's got to win over al 1520 01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:30,200 Speaker 6: Jamaine Sterling. His last three fights haven't gone well, but 1521 01:12:30,320 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 6: let's look at who he thought Cody Garbrand, Corey Sandhagen, 1522 01:12:33,479 --> 01:12:34,200 Speaker 6: Marlon Morice. 1523 01:12:35,439 --> 01:12:37,280 Speaker 4: So you know, no joke there. 1524 01:12:37,479 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 6: So I think a sun Sow I'm not sure he's 1525 01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:46,560 Speaker 6: fighting with that same kind of goal of Hey, this 1526 01:12:46,800 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 6: is for me to elevate myself and kind of get 1527 01:12:49,520 --> 01:12:51,880 Speaker 6: a shot at the belt, which is a dangerous place 1528 01:12:51,960 --> 01:12:55,040 Speaker 6: to be. So that concerns me for sure. But I 1529 01:12:55,160 --> 01:12:57,600 Speaker 6: still think a sun Sow's got some great skills. I 1530 01:12:57,680 --> 01:13:00,479 Speaker 6: still think he can get it done. I'll take suns 1531 01:13:00,479 --> 01:13:02,639 Speaker 6: out here over a very tough Ricky Simont. 1532 01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:05,000 Speaker 4: And by the way, ken Flow has been hot. He 1533 01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:08,639 Speaker 4: was five and one going into the Nounz fight last weekend. 1534 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:10,599 Speaker 4: Right of course, Nuns and Poorier ripped up a lot 1535 01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:13,040 Speaker 4: of tickets for a lot of people. But uh, all right, 1536 01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:17,599 Speaker 4: at strawweight, Amanda Lemos minus four to ten, If that's 1537 01:13:17,680 --> 01:13:19,839 Speaker 4: not a prohibitive number, I don't know what is Angela 1538 01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,599 Speaker 4: Hill plus three ten Lemos though, is outstanding. I love 1539 01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:24,519 Speaker 4: watching her fight. She's won four in a row. A 1540 01:13:24,560 --> 01:13:27,080 Speaker 4: lot of people think she's a future champion. And Angela 1541 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:29,280 Speaker 4: Hill is taking this on relatively short notice about a 1542 01:13:29,280 --> 01:13:32,120 Speaker 4: month replacing Nina Nunez, and Hill has dropped three of 1543 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:35,360 Speaker 4: four overall. Uh, Jimmy Kraus, kid, what do you have 1544 01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 4: for us on this one? At one hundred and fifteen pounds, Limos. 1545 01:13:39,040 --> 01:13:41,760 Speaker 5: Is probably gonna win, but I'll take Angela Hill here. 1546 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:45,360 Speaker 5: I'm gonna I'm gonna ride with the dog. I mean, 1547 01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:49,000 Speaker 5: I'm not an Angela Hill fan at all at all. 1548 01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:52,080 Speaker 5: But I do think she's being disrespect I do think 1549 01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:54,240 Speaker 5: she's being disrespected on the lines with Tony here, like 1550 01:13:54,360 --> 01:13:56,439 Speaker 5: you know what I mean. Like, man, there's a story 1551 01:13:56,479 --> 01:14:00,439 Speaker 5: behind why I don't like her, But like, I think 1552 01:14:00,479 --> 01:14:02,200 Speaker 5: she's being disrespected on the lines. I don't think her 1553 01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:04,479 Speaker 5: skill is I don't think her skill matches what the 1554 01:14:04,640 --> 01:14:05,960 Speaker 5: what the line is saying. I think she's got a 1555 01:14:05,960 --> 01:14:07,600 Speaker 5: good shot of winning this fight. I really do like 1556 01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:11,240 Speaker 5: she's well rounded. She comes in shape, good, good striker. 1557 01:14:11,439 --> 01:14:14,200 Speaker 5: Like I don't see I don't see the four to one. 1558 01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:17,639 Speaker 5: I really don't. I don't, So I'm gonna I'm gonna 1559 01:14:17,760 --> 01:14:19,479 Speaker 5: use this as a try to catch up with Kenny here, 1560 01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:21,040 Speaker 5: Like I know, he's been booking my ass lately. 1561 01:14:21,120 --> 01:14:24,760 Speaker 4: So I'm gonna rock with h Hill here Ken Flow. 1562 01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:27,439 Speaker 4: Angela Hill's last fight against t Sha Torres in August. 1563 01:14:27,479 --> 01:14:30,080 Speaker 4: She got Tisha's best, but there's a big spot for 1564 01:14:30,160 --> 01:14:32,160 Speaker 4: her to avoid a fourth loss in her last five. 1565 01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:35,600 Speaker 4: So her second pro fight was in the UFC. This 1566 01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:39,439 Speaker 4: is obviously a second UFC stint. Angela Hill's got eighteen 1567 01:14:39,560 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 4: UFC fights coming in. 1568 01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,200 Speaker 6: She has a ton of experience, and she's been working 1569 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 6: extremely hard on her grappling, you know, particularly with our 1570 01:14:48,280 --> 01:14:50,720 Speaker 6: guy Justin Flores and all that stuff. So you know 1571 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:52,519 Speaker 6: that's a concern for me. You know, she can go 1572 01:14:52,600 --> 01:14:55,160 Speaker 6: out there and win rounds and steal this fighting and 1573 01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:59,400 Speaker 6: get the upset here. But man, I'm not sure I've 1574 01:14:59,479 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 6: been more excited after a fight than Amanda Lemos with 1575 01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:06,200 Speaker 6: someone I was kind of sleeping on a little bit. 1576 01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:12,440 Speaker 6: Her knockout over Ruise and her last fight was just ridiculous. 1577 01:15:12,800 --> 01:15:16,160 Speaker 6: You don't see someone move backwards and strike like that 1578 01:15:16,479 --> 01:15:20,680 Speaker 6: very often. It got me excited her timing, her technique. 1579 01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:27,000 Speaker 4: She's a beast. I like her here, dude, she if again. 1580 01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:28,519 Speaker 6: I don't know if it was like one of these 1581 01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:31,599 Speaker 6: like just happened to put it all together just that night, 1582 01:15:31,600 --> 01:15:32,800 Speaker 6: and that's all we're gonna see from her. 1583 01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 4: Maybe that's the case. I'm not so sure. You don't 1584 01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:39,920 Speaker 4: see that high level of striking very often, and I 1585 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:43,519 Speaker 4: think Lemos takes it here. She is a finisher, and 1586 01:15:43,640 --> 01:15:46,640 Speaker 4: obviously she has gotten the attention of the bookmakers at 1587 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:49,799 Speaker 4: Draftking Sportsbook because she's minus four to ten against Angela 1588 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:53,200 Speaker 4: Hill all Right, Cole main event, Stephen WonderBoy Thompson minus 1589 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:56,800 Speaker 4: two to fifty five Balal Muhammad plus two oh five. 1590 01:15:57,479 --> 01:16:01,439 Speaker 4: So Bellal in his last levin Walks to the Octagon 1591 01:16:01,600 --> 01:16:04,160 Speaker 4: has been beaten by one man, you know. I think 1592 01:16:04,200 --> 01:16:07,080 Speaker 4: that's worth pointing out. Eleven walks one loss that was 1593 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:10,880 Speaker 4: Jeff Neil wonder boy Ton of championship experience. Obviously, the 1594 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:13,960 Speaker 4: two title fights against Tyren Woodley, hes fought everybody but 1595 01:16:14,160 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 4: Kamara essentially, but he is coming off of July loss 1596 01:16:16,920 --> 01:16:19,920 Speaker 4: to Gilbert Erino Burns some similarities in that matchup. I 1597 01:16:19,960 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 4: think in this one, what do you think about this 1598 01:16:22,120 --> 01:16:24,040 Speaker 4: co main event, James? And ultimately which way you go? 1599 01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:31,439 Speaker 5: Uh, It's hard to pick against wonder Boy against any 1600 01:16:31,479 --> 01:16:33,439 Speaker 5: other striker, you know what I mean? Like he's just 1601 01:16:34,439 --> 01:16:36,639 Speaker 5: this is my only complaint with him. My only complaint 1602 01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:39,160 Speaker 5: with My complaint with him is sometimes when he gets 1603 01:16:39,200 --> 01:16:42,760 Speaker 5: in there with other really good strikers, his volume just 1604 01:16:42,920 --> 01:16:46,200 Speaker 5: gets like disgustingly low. Like you, if I asked you, 1605 01:16:46,280 --> 01:16:48,639 Speaker 5: like who won the fight between him and Darren Till, 1606 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 5: what would you say? 1607 01:16:51,400 --> 01:16:53,439 Speaker 4: I don't know. I was too close to call for me. 1608 01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:55,840 Speaker 4: I mean I remember being really conflicted watching it live. 1609 01:16:56,880 --> 01:17:01,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, like you can't judge a fight when no punches 1610 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:03,200 Speaker 5: are thrown. Yeah, you know what I mean, Like it's 1611 01:17:03,280 --> 01:17:05,920 Speaker 5: really difficult, like it it's really like I can't even 1612 01:17:06,280 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 5: I honestly, I don't know who won, like because it 1613 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:11,599 Speaker 5: was I just remembering so frustrated watching that. And he's 1614 01:17:11,600 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 5: been in a couple of those, you know what I mean. Like, 1615 01:17:13,760 --> 01:17:17,200 Speaker 5: he's been in a couple of those. However, that's typically 1616 01:17:17,600 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 5: done with guys that have a really high danger factor. 1617 01:17:20,479 --> 01:17:25,000 Speaker 5: Would we uh till they hit really hard? Blall isn't 1618 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:28,639 Speaker 5: a big puncher, He's a volume guy. I really like Blaw. 1619 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:31,679 Speaker 5: I think he's incredible, and I think he I think 1620 01:17:31,920 --> 01:17:33,680 Speaker 5: you we're gonna see him wrestle a little bit here, 1621 01:17:33,680 --> 01:17:37,400 Speaker 5: and that does intrigue me a little bit. But just man, 1622 01:17:37,479 --> 01:17:40,400 Speaker 5: it's really difficult when I see two primary strikers match up, 1623 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:42,280 Speaker 5: one being Stephen Thompson, It's really hard for me to 1624 01:17:42,320 --> 01:17:45,200 Speaker 5: pick against him. I'm gonna go him. I think he'll 1625 01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:47,479 Speaker 5: win by decision here. Blall is extremely durable and I 1626 01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,360 Speaker 5: thinka will have some moments and it wouldn't shock me 1627 01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 5: if he won either, you know. Yeah, But uh, it's 1628 01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:53,920 Speaker 5: just really hard for me to bet against one a 1629 01:17:53,920 --> 01:17:54,759 Speaker 5: boy against another. 1630 01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:58,519 Speaker 4: Striker, Kenny Gilbert Burns laid out a pretty good blueprint 1631 01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:00,080 Speaker 4: I think for beating wonder Boy in the way you 1632 01:18:00,200 --> 01:18:02,799 Speaker 4: need to do it over fifteen minutes. But he obviously 1633 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:06,120 Speaker 4: has a skill set on the ground that that not 1634 01:18:06,200 --> 01:18:08,559 Speaker 4: a lot of people possess. I do think Muhammad's going 1635 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:11,120 Speaker 4: to have to wrestle here. It is a twenty five 1636 01:18:11,160 --> 01:18:13,840 Speaker 4: foot octagon compared to a thirty footer, which I think 1637 01:18:13,880 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 4: makes what Gilbert Burns was. 1638 01:18:14,800 --> 01:18:17,479 Speaker 5: Over that makes a big difference to different. 1639 01:18:17,560 --> 01:18:19,040 Speaker 4: I think it's a factor. Kenny what do you think 1640 01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:22,800 Speaker 4: about the Komen. Yeah, I'm thinking on very similar terms 1641 01:18:22,840 --> 01:18:24,719 Speaker 4: here with you guys. Listen. 1642 01:18:24,920 --> 01:18:28,720 Speaker 6: I think Ballall could go out there and potentially do 1643 01:18:28,800 --> 01:18:32,720 Speaker 6: exactly what Gilbert Burns did. And also, you know, as 1644 01:18:32,840 --> 01:18:35,680 Speaker 6: good as as Wonder Boy is, you know that you 1645 01:18:35,800 --> 01:18:39,240 Speaker 6: can't question. But he's been fighting a long time. And 1646 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 6: if you go back to you know, karate, his karate days, 1647 01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:47,479 Speaker 6: a kickboxing days, you know, how much does he want 1648 01:18:47,520 --> 01:18:49,479 Speaker 6: it at this stage of the game. I don't know, 1649 01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:52,200 Speaker 6: and that will wane over time for a lot of 1650 01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:54,040 Speaker 6: guys who have been in the game for a long time. 1651 01:18:55,439 --> 01:18:58,960 Speaker 4: But and for Ballall, you know, he's hungry. You know 1652 01:18:59,080 --> 01:18:59,800 Speaker 4: he's coming to fight. 1653 01:18:59,840 --> 01:18:59,880 Speaker 5: You. 1654 01:19:00,000 --> 01:19:02,600 Speaker 6: You know he's training hard, h and he's had a 1655 01:19:02,680 --> 01:19:05,080 Speaker 6: lot of great experience leading up to this fight. I 1656 01:19:05,160 --> 01:19:07,920 Speaker 6: think the way that he pressures, I think the fact 1657 01:19:07,960 --> 01:19:10,920 Speaker 6: that he throws a lot more volume and can also 1658 01:19:11,400 --> 01:19:13,960 Speaker 6: get it done on the wrestling and grappling side of things. 1659 01:19:14,880 --> 01:19:19,639 Speaker 6: And I think it's an intriguing underdog bet. But wonder 1660 01:19:19,720 --> 01:19:22,840 Speaker 6: Boy is so damn good man. He still is very 1661 01:19:22,880 --> 01:19:24,960 Speaker 6: good and a lot of times I feel like he 1662 01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 6: is also most dangerous when you kind of calm him 1663 01:19:28,240 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 6: out a little bit, and if he's had a dud 1664 01:19:30,280 --> 01:19:32,640 Speaker 6: of a dud of a performance, he comes back and 1665 01:19:32,720 --> 01:19:36,280 Speaker 6: looks like a superstar again. So for me, that's why 1666 01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:38,840 Speaker 6: it's tough for me to bet against wonder Boy here. 1667 01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,760 Speaker 6: But Bellall's a problem, man. And again, you know what 1668 01:19:42,840 --> 01:19:45,000 Speaker 6: you're gonna get with Ballall every single time out he 1669 01:19:45,080 --> 01:19:47,160 Speaker 6: comes to fight. I think it's gonna be a close fight, 1670 01:19:47,360 --> 01:19:50,120 Speaker 6: But I like wonder Boy here all right, and James, 1671 01:19:50,160 --> 01:19:51,880 Speaker 6: before we gets you out of here. Main event, Chris 1672 01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:54,840 Speaker 6: Doccas minus one forty the Black Beast Derek Lewis plus 1673 01:19:54,960 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 6: one twenty Docas four and know in the UFC thus far, 1674 01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,960 Speaker 6: three straight bonuses for him. Don't tell you, guys what 1675 01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:04,000 Speaker 6: the Black Beast has accomplished in the UFC. Most decorated 1676 01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:06,479 Speaker 6: heavyweight knockout artists in UFC history did come up short 1677 01:20:06,520 --> 01:20:08,760 Speaker 6: in a bid for interim gold against the well moving 1678 01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:12,200 Speaker 6: seedle Gone in August. Chris Doccas moves pretty well as well. 1679 01:20:12,280 --> 01:20:13,120 Speaker 6: James Kraus, Who do you have. 1680 01:20:13,160 --> 01:20:17,760 Speaker 4: In the main event? Who was Dacas's last fight, Shamil Abduakimov. 1681 01:20:19,360 --> 01:20:21,439 Speaker 5: This is a really tough one for me. This is 1682 01:20:21,479 --> 01:20:24,320 Speaker 5: a really tough one for me. Uh, for whatever reason, 1683 01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:28,400 Speaker 5: this is this is kind of like, uh, this is 1684 01:20:28,520 --> 01:20:30,000 Speaker 5: kind of like the pour A al Verify for me. 1685 01:20:30,120 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 5: This depends on why that you asked me. 1686 01:20:31,760 --> 01:20:31,880 Speaker 3: Uh. 1687 01:20:32,680 --> 01:20:36,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, I I initially wanted to lean Lewis, but I 1688 01:20:36,800 --> 01:20:40,240 Speaker 5: feel like doccas is. I feel like a heavyweight. He's 1689 01:20:40,360 --> 01:20:45,240 Speaker 5: extremely agile, moves a lot and and and uh can 1690 01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:48,920 Speaker 5: be difficult to hit at times. And what I don't 1691 01:20:49,000 --> 01:20:52,479 Speaker 5: like about Derek Lewis is his volume is low. Gosh, 1692 01:20:52,600 --> 01:20:59,320 Speaker 5: dang man, he just needs one. Uh, I'm gonna go 1693 01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:01,960 Speaker 5: Derek Lewis. I don't know why my brain is telling 1694 01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:04,960 Speaker 5: me to pick Dokas, but for whatever reason, I keep 1695 01:21:05,040 --> 01:21:06,040 Speaker 5: leaning loose. I don't know why. 1696 01:21:06,240 --> 01:21:08,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's a tough way to really tell that. It's 1697 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:11,040 Speaker 4: weird to see a plus number next to Derek Lewis's 1698 01:21:11,160 --> 01:21:13,360 Speaker 4: name against Chris Dacas right now. And I love the 1699 01:21:13,439 --> 01:21:15,680 Speaker 4: Dakas brothers. Right We featured him on the podcast like 1700 01:21:15,960 --> 01:21:19,120 Speaker 4: absolutely high on those boys. But to me, I was 1701 01:21:19,240 --> 01:21:21,840 Speaker 4: flipped on this. Again. I don't look at these because 1702 01:21:21,840 --> 01:21:23,760 Speaker 4: I want to try to be predictive before I look, 1703 01:21:23,840 --> 01:21:25,720 Speaker 4: and I was. I was wrong. I had this one 1704 01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:28,200 Speaker 4: backwards Hey, before we let you go, I'm gonna get 1705 01:21:28,240 --> 01:21:30,640 Speaker 4: Kemplo's main event picking a little bit Thursday night on 1706 01:21:30,840 --> 01:21:33,680 Speaker 4: UFC Fight Pass, tell the masses what you got going 1707 01:21:33,760 --> 01:21:37,519 Speaker 4: on and bring home the goddamn w Captain krause Man. 1708 01:21:38,960 --> 01:21:42,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, so we're doing.

So 1716 01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:08,639 Speaker 5: and you got LAFA it's been around for fifteen years. 1717 01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:10,519 Speaker 5: They could, you know, they could have put together everybody. 1718 01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:15,040 Speaker 5: But man, I will say this.

I mean, if you guys look up the roster, 1723 01:22:29,200 --> 01:22:32,519 Speaker 5: it's really good. Like everybody in it is extremely like 1724 01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:34,960 Speaker 5: we're not talking about good MMA fires. We're talking about 1725 01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:37,880 Speaker 5: professional grapplers. I have fought like one time, you know 1726 01:22:37,920 --> 01:22:39,960 Speaker 5: what I mean, Like like haf E Levato is on 1727 01:22:40,040 --> 01:22:43,120 Speaker 5: the LFA LA team and Ramos is on that team, 1728 01:22:43,200 --> 01:22:46,000 Speaker 5: and I'm like, what the fuck?

So it's really I'm 1734 01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:04,040 Speaker 5: excited to grapple again.

I feel like I've 1737 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:12,960 Speaker 5: probably been known for my striking in the UFC, but 1738 01:23:13,080 --> 01:23:15,320 Speaker 5: I'm a better grappler than I'm a striker probably, So. 1739 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:19,880 Speaker 4: Uh that was when you submitted a remote wall, right, yeah, 1740 01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:24,080 Speaker 4: so maybe let's you let us know what we need 1741 01:23:24,160 --> 01:23:26,080 Speaker 4: to pay to get our logo on your shorts next 1742 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:27,160 Speaker 4: time too.

I'm just doing I 1750 01:23:41,280 --> 01:23:44,000 Speaker 5: leave tomorrow for the for the Invitational on Thursday, and 1751 01:23:44,040 --> 01:23:44,680 Speaker 5: then I'm back on. 1752 01:23:45,160 --> 01:23:47,040 Speaker 4: All right, my man. Appreciate your time, buddy. We'll talk 1753 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:47,840 Speaker 4: to you next week. 1754 01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:48,760 Speaker 5: Thanks. 1755 01:23:48,840 --> 01:23:51,080 Speaker 4: Yes, there he is James Cross with us here on 1756 01:23:51,120 --> 01:23:53,799 Speaker 4: the Anakin Florian podcast. Sorry, Cam Flow, Dacas and Lewis 1757 01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:58,280 Speaker 4: talk to me. Who do you got in the main event? Boy? 1758 01:23:58,479 --> 01:23:58,599 Speaker 3: Uh? 1759 01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:01,920 Speaker 6: You know, Derek has the ability to knock out anyone 1760 01:24:01,960 --> 01:24:05,240 Speaker 6: in the world. He is always dangerous. All it takes 1761 01:24:05,360 --> 01:24:07,760 Speaker 6: is one shot, doesn't even need to hit your clean. 1762 01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:11,400 Speaker 6: But I do think that Chris Daukas has the right 1763 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:15,320 Speaker 6: experience at this point to be fighting someone like Derek Lewis. 1764 01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:17,880 Speaker 6: I think he's seen enough Derek Lewis fights to know 1765 01:24:18,040 --> 01:24:20,559 Speaker 6: what he's getting into. He's a smart guy. He's got 1766 01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:23,480 Speaker 6: some skills on the grappling side as well. I imagine 1767 01:24:23,520 --> 01:24:25,679 Speaker 6: that's probably where he's going to try to take this fight. 1768 01:24:26,320 --> 01:24:28,160 Speaker 6: But you gotta watch out for Dodkins and striking as well. 1769 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:31,720 Speaker 6: He could surprise Derek Lewis there. I like Chris to 1770 01:24:31,840 --> 01:24:34,600 Speaker 6: win this fight. I'm gonna go with let's go with 1771 01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:35,919 Speaker 6: second round TKO. 1772 01:24:36,800 --> 01:24:40,639 Speaker 4: Second round TKO for Chris Doccas the pick for Ken Flow. 1773 01:24:41,439 --> 01:24:43,559 Speaker 4: All right, we gotta get on out of here. I'll 1774 01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:45,880 Speaker 4: just say in closing in terms of the Chefchenko stuff like, 1775 01:24:46,120 --> 01:24:48,080 Speaker 4: I don't know if she desires to be the singular 1776 01:24:48,160 --> 01:24:50,320 Speaker 4: greatest of all time.
