They're on 77 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 1: the same level for me. You understand that. So I 78 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 1: would not listen to into like nuclear warfare.

Uh No, my wife 80 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: is out of town. 81 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 3: What a contrast to Luke the intellectual, Luke the veteran, 82 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: happy veterans, dat veterans, thank you for serving our country 83 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 3: in the Marines. About time you deal with that PTSD though, 84 00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 3: But we'll get to that another time, making light of it. 85 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 3: But you know, it's a nice contrast between Luke the 86 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 3: high school athlete at Old Marietta and then this this 87 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 3: gung ho ex marine heavy powerlift. 88 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: To no such thing as no such thing as an 89 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 1: ex marine, only a former marine and a pogue like 90 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 1: you would not understand that. Nevertheless, we have to get 91 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: this show started, Brian Campbell. We kick it off with 92 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: your favorite sport, boxing or well something kind of like boxing. 93 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:02,320 Speaker 1: But if two famous tour put the do, it's like 94 00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 1: boxing adjacent something like that. All right, so let's get 95 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: to it. KSI, I don't know who that is and 96 00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 1: Logan Paul that's the dude who made the video, but 97 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,240 Speaker 1: the guy hanging himself in Japan. Anyway, they got together 98 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: and had something called a boxing match in Los Angeles. 99 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 1: It aired on to Zone and there's sort of a 100 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: big question about it. Lance Pugmar of the La Times. 101 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: Of course this event was in. 102 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,760 Speaker 2: LA He's with the Athletic. Let's be honest. 103 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: He he's with the Athletic. Oh sorr he used to 104 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: do with the La Times in any event they did. 105 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 1: For the record, they did not sell out the Staples Center. 106 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,280 Speaker 1: The upper bowl was still roped off, but they sold 107 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:33,560 Speaker 1: out everything on the Lord Bowl and down. I've seen 108 00:04:33,640 --> 00:04:36,160 Speaker 1: UFC events that have done worse. Although TJ versus Cody 109 00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: two I believe was in that venue. They did sell 110 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 1: it out. But okay, whatever the point being is two 111 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: guys with massive online followings who are very gone combined 112 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: forty million YouTube subscribed KSI alone, I believe has had 113 00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 1: four billion YouTube views on all of stuff on his channel, 114 00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 1: an incredible amount of traffic in any event. So they 115 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: fought in what was their first professional contest on the Zone. 116 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,719 Speaker 1: The question is who really won on the course of 117 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: the evening. Now, the guy who won the match, Brian Campbell, 118 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 1: was this dude named KSI, which I believe. I didn't 119 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,920 Speaker 1: realize this tilly one. I guess it stands for, like 120 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 1: this is if I get this right, knowledge strength, integrity? 121 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,080 Speaker 1: Is that right? Yeah? Yeah, I think so. I mean, 122 00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:14,000 Speaker 1: what is. 123 00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 2: Their integrity and YouTube boxing? 124 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 3: All right, here's the deal, Luke. It was a good 125 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: piece of business. It was entertaining for what it was. 126 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:22,359 Speaker 3: I had set you up coming in going. Look, I 127 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 3: interviewed both guys ahead of it. They kind of got me. 128 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,640 Speaker 3: They got me to care. I did watch their first fight, 129 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 3: which was a draw under amateur rules a year ago, 130 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 3: and I cared from the standpoint of like a soap 131 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 3: opera almost pro wrestling, to see who wins. They almost 132 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,000 Speaker 3: filled up the Staples Center. They got all of us 133 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 3: across the sport to actually care. The winners in this 134 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 3: case are certainly them for really raising their profile, for 135 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 3: doing something that the average bloke wouldn't do, which is 136 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 3: go through a professional training camp, actually take a fight 137 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 3: to settle some corny grudge. I want to stop it 138 00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 3: short of like though, the narratives that go boxing wins 139 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 3: and this is great for boxing, And that was something 140 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 3: that was echoed on the Deszone broadcast that got super 141 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 3: cringey the promoters and maybe de Zone for one night 142 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 3: win because that's sort of the boxing way of doing things. 143 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:08,160 Speaker 3: You always sort of mortgage your long term future to 144 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,600 Speaker 3: just make money tonight and the short term. And in 145 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: that sense it probably worked. People had to go out 146 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 3: of their way to figure out what's the zone days 147 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 3: in what is this thing? I'm sure they found it. 148 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 3: I'm sure they subscribed. I'm sure the promoters made big money. 149 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 3: Spoiler alert US at cbsports dot com did like almost 150 00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 3: record traffic. I had KSI and my podcast The State 151 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,719 Speaker 3: of Combat last week did ten times the normal traffic 152 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,839 Speaker 3: on my boxing show. So if you were willing to 153 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 3: take part in this, if you were willing to reach 154 00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 3: your hand over the glass and get the hot dog 155 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 3: out of the gas station and eat it. In the 156 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 3: long run, did you get an upset slummach? Probably, But 157 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 3: in the short term everybody that put their hand on 158 00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 3: it did win. But this does nothing for boxing. This 159 00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 3: does nothing for anybody. It was a celebrity event that 160 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 3: just happened to be boxing, and you do got to 161 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 3: give them this, luke. They didn't embarrass the sport and 162 00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:57,880 Speaker 3: the fight was kind of fun. It had controversy, had 163 00:06:57,880 --> 00:06:58,520 Speaker 3: some actions. 164 00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: What it was it was fun to insult is what 165 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: it was. 166 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,480 Speaker 2: It was funny. There was a hate watch element to it. 167 00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,039 Speaker 1: There's a clear hate watch element too it. I mean 168 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:08,440 Speaker 1: when I was watching it, if you've been to, for example, 169 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: regional MMA in your community, or even if you go 170 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: to like a big fight and then you show up 171 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: really early and you see the guys this is a 172 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: six round professional contest. Now for people who have an 173 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:19,640 Speaker 1: amateur background and they're fighting six rounders in a pro contest, 174 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: they actually look better than that. These guys are just 175 00:07:21,880 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 1: picking up boxing, frankly as a sort of aggressive hobby 176 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: in their mid to late twenties. They're not going to 177 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: be very good. But at the same time, you could 178 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,320 Speaker 1: tell that they were in shape for what it was. 179 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 1: You could tell that they tried for what it was. 180 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 1: And to also your point, here's the one thing I'll 181 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 1: give this event, dude. These guys, these guys who are 182 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: twenty two to twenty four years old, whatever their exact 183 00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:41,000 Speaker 1: ages are, they've been on camera for the last ten 184 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: years or more of their lives. They are natural on it, 185 00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: and they have these huge audiences they've cultivated on social 186 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 1: and then sort of YouTube media, which also is a 187 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: form of social in some ways, dude, they did a 188 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,280 Speaker 1: great job selling this fight. They really did. They got 189 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: a ton of attention. When you looked at the promotional 190 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: elements that they had put out, they had a story 191 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: at tell. They had a reason for you to like 192 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,800 Speaker 1: invest in one or the other. There was something unresolved 193 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:06,320 Speaker 1: that you had to see. Like, they did a pretty 194 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: good job. The problem was in the end, it was 195 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 1: just a bad fight. And now that's a bad fight 196 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 1: because it didn't try. It's a bad fight because it's 197 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: two guys who can't fucking box. 198 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:14,640 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, you want to be blonded is. 199 00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 1: But here the thing that got me was like, who 200 00:08:16,480 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 1: is the big winner? In some ways, certainly in the 201 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: short term, di zones the winner, because, as I mentioned before, 202 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 1: ESPN Plus is a growing and important business for ESPN, 203 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 1: but it is still sort of a bit of a 204 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 1: secondary effort for them, and maybe the long term primary effort, 205 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: but for right now, linear television is the way that 206 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: it goes. Also, they have ESPN channels. ESPN Plus is 207 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:37,000 Speaker 1: in adendum, de Zone does not have a dizone channel 208 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: that you can get on Comcast or direct TV. That's 209 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,239 Speaker 1: all they have. So getting some kind of business awareness 210 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: for them is truly paramount. This is a great way 211 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:47,560 Speaker 1: to do it. So if they were doing this to 212 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,319 Speaker 1: raise visibility for their business, you sort of get it. 213 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,800 Speaker 1: What I object to is the obvious lie that this 214 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: was good for boxing. It wasn't bad for boxing, It 215 00:08:57,760 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 1: just had nothing to do with boxing, right. This is 216 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: the point these two guys could have settled their beef. 217 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 1: I mentioned this on Twitter with a burrito eating contest 218 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: or who could who could scale an American Ninja warrior 219 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 1: course faster or arm wrestling or slapping? 220 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 2: But I got nobody would have cared, though. 221 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 1: I don't believe that even a little bit. They might 222 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: have cared a little bit more given some of the 223 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: graver steaks of boxing. 224 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 3: We talk about the hate watch element, but you want 225 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,920 Speaker 3: to see them get hurt if you hate the idea. 226 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 1: Yes, a little bit. Of course, I had to had 227 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:27,719 Speaker 1: to be a little danger to that, I understand. But 228 00:09:28,400 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 1: the point being is, if you think about how real 229 00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: boxing fans are created, it's almost like, yes, you can 230 00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: kind of teach somebody to be one. There is there 231 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: is an element to that, but usually man and no, no, 232 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: this is true for you. It's a bug. It's an 233 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 1: it's an it's a infestation. Once you feel it, you 234 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:47,199 Speaker 1: can't really undo it. You had a bunch of fifteen 235 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 1: year old girls there, They're not gonna like boxing. You 236 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: had people who just wanted to see some kind of 237 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,080 Speaker 1: petty and it was petty dispute settled. Boxing is a 238 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: reasonable way to do it, but it's dizone self serving, 239 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: it's dizone dealing, dressing it up in these larger ethical 240 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,959 Speaker 1: work given back to the sport nonsense. It's frankly kind 241 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: of low brow and a little bit insulting and just 242 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: demonstrably not true. 243 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,119 Speaker 2: And certainly from the idea of boxing. 244 00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,400 Speaker 3: Does don't switch up their broadcast team to try to 245 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 3: make it a little more hip and younger based, and 246 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 3: it was just cringing. 247 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:22,720 Speaker 1: Ryan Garcia not good at it, and Radio Raheem needed 248 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: knee pads during that broadcast. 249 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and then at the end, you know what I mean, 250 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 3: it felt like at the end, you ever, you know, 251 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 3: go to a party and you welcome in another group 252 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 3: of people because they either had the really good drugs 253 00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 3: or they could bring the girls with them, and you're 254 00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 3: sort of selling part of your soul to hang out 255 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 3: with them, and it was just sort of felt like, 256 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 3: who invited these guys? 257 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 1: I did that? Yeah? 258 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:41,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Hey, we got a comment here from Steven 259 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 3: Sullivan saying God isn't real, Bigfoot is I have? 260 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: I'm really glad back there that we're adding that to 261 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: the broad It really elevates what we're doing here. It's 262 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 1: really important that you do that in any event. Though. 263 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: The thing about it is for me lasting on his 264 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: Zone because I want to switch to Devin Haney here. Well, 265 00:10:57,920 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 1: it's just what are we airing that for? 266 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 2: I mean, I mean literally, you're making a religious political statement. 267 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 1: Jay, Where are you going with this? Here? Here's the 268 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 1: point with Dezone. You've now had this airing of this event, 269 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 1: which I'm sure, by the way, did gangbusters for them 270 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,599 Speaker 1: in terms of viewership, and then secondly, you had the 271 00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: previous week where where they were pushing back Canelo. Remember 272 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: even after your co main event with Devin Haney, which 273 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 1: talk about a second, they aired some kind of dude 274 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 1: named white Chocolate versus a pre diabetic gas station attende. Okay, 275 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: I think I've eaten from his hand. You probably have, 276 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: and then that to delay the broadcast further. My only 277 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,479 Speaker 1: point about Zone is I get that they have some struggles, 278 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 1: but when you're rearranging your product, when you're making interesting 279 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:37,640 Speaker 1: choices like that, when you're delaying it in these kinds 280 00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 1: of ways that they are a it's reminiscent of UFC 281 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports One, which was painful to watch. And secondly, 282 00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: it's always an indication something's kind of up with the broadcast, 283 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: either in the case of UFC and FS one they 284 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,160 Speaker 1: had to sell ad inventory or in the case of 285 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: de Zone. I'm not saying that they are doing poorly, 286 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: but my hunches they're making these weird choices because they 287 00:11:57,760 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 1: feel like they should be doing a lot better. 288 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 3: Well, I mean, they're paying an absurd amount of money 289 00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 3: to Kanelo, Alvas, Tokenatica, Glufkin, to all these players to 290 00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 3: disrupt the market, so they're trying to figure out ways 291 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,000 Speaker 3: to open the door to get some of that back. 292 00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 2: Some of it's just going to be a guaranteed loss. 293 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 1: But I don't know. 294 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:14,119 Speaker 3: I don't I look at the Zone as a temporary 295 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,880 Speaker 3: box holder from the standpoint of, like, you know, their 296 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 3: goal is big ticket mainstream sports. Boxing is sort of 297 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:22,559 Speaker 3: an easy market to get into because of the lack 298 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 3: of organization. 299 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:25,360 Speaker 2: So they've got in. They made some noise, but they're 300 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 2: probably going. 301 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 3: To do more decisions like this, like making Knelo Alvarez 302 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 3: your poster boy wait on a couch for ninety eight minutes. 303 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 3: That sort of pissed off the boxing regular because long 304 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 3: term they have much different business plans might take and they. 305 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 1: Certainly overseas is what they've already done. I think in 306 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: the I'm not sure about this, but I believe in 307 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: Canada you can get the NFL rights for twenty bucks 308 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:45,199 Speaker 1: a year through the Zone. I understand that, but getting 309 00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:46,840 Speaker 1: those kinds of properties is going to be difficult, and 310 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 1: in the short run, when you're rearranging and delaying and 311 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: kind of chopping your product this way, something's off with it. 312 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 1: Now that being said, Devin Haney was your sort of 313 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:59,439 Speaker 1: a official co main event. He did get the win. 314 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 1: Brian Camp, you were on this show telling me he 315 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 1: was the real deal holy Field. Over the weekend, I 316 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 1: sent you an Instagram post from one of my favorite rappers, 317 00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: Osama Vin Ladden or also known as O Drama, Vin 318 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:13,480 Speaker 1: Lauden Vinnie pass Box Cutter Passy from Jedime Trix Boxing 319 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: an Army of the Pharaohs. He acknowledged that Devin Haney 320 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: is talented, but he just didn't seem sold on it. 321 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:22,480 Speaker 1: This to me was a performance. Is the first fighter 322 00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: from Devin Haney I've seen live. He's clearly gifted. I 323 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: did not, in any shape, way or form, get the 324 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,200 Speaker 1: feeling that this was a guy who's going to give 325 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,719 Speaker 1: Limachenko a run for his money, not anytime soon. It 326 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: was a little bit, but what am I missing? 327 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 3: It was a little bit sobering this performance, And I 328 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 3: think it's the same thing as like if he had 329 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 3: gone in there against a hapless opponent and blew him 330 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,320 Speaker 3: away in thirty seconds, it would be like, Okay, it's 331 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 3: probably not that good, and he's certainly not that What 332 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 3: word are you going to use to describe a performance 333 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 3: in which he did knock down his opponent and he 334 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 3: did win every single round on all three score cards. 335 00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 3: But I do acknowledge from what Vinnie Paz is saying 336 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 3: and what you're essentially teasing and alluding to, that it 337 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: wasn't the showcase opportunity it could have been. Why did 338 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 3: boxers such as Billy Joe Saunders and Devin Haney sort 339 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,880 Speaker 3: of rushed at the idea of being on this undercard 340 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 3: and jumping in the pool with the Kasize and Logan Paul's. 341 00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 3: They want to bit of that audience, They want to 342 00:14:08,840 --> 00:14:11,559 Speaker 3: get that rub. This wasn't the performance from Devin Haney 343 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 3: to sort of announce that at twenty years old, he's 344 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,079 Speaker 3: the complete backage, He's the next Mayweather. He does have 345 00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 3: an incredible backstory, he has sort of been gifted. 346 00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: The WBC titles. 347 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 3: Is trying to get in line to actually face Lemonchenko, 348 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,840 Speaker 3: the W'SBC franchise champion. No, that performance did not tell 349 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 3: you that he's ready. It was almost sort of a 350 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 3: lateral slash step back in the end. I don't think 351 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 3: it's enough step back. I don't think it's enough where 352 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 3: you can damn him for all those things I just said. 353 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 3: It just wasn't you know, Look that sometimes that's matchmaking. 354 00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 3: They put him in there with an unbeaten guy who 355 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 3: was hungry. 356 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 1: Who appeared to me from a body language standpoint, unafraid 357 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,320 Speaker 1: of him, and so I think that kind of threw 358 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: him off a little bit and made him a little 359 00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 1: bit more defensive. Early failure came on strong later. 360 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 3: Certainly a failure from the idea of all these nerds 361 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 3: in the crowd who game and play YouTube and you know, 362 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 3: and follow KSI around. Those people are not going to 363 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 3: be like, oh my god, I got se. 364 00:14:57,400 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 1: Quest, this is my last one about this and then 365 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: we'll move on. Which was does be like, oh this 366 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: is good for boxing. It's not bad for boxing, It's 367 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 1: not good for boxing, and boxing was just a conduit 368 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 1: to settle some stupid internet beef. So I don't really 369 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: care about in that sense. But the other part was 370 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 1: you saw I think Eddie Hearn saying, oh, well, Devin 371 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: Haney and Billy Joe Saunder's got a huge boost in visibility. 372 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:17,920 Speaker 1: I want to see what it actually results in. Does 373 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: it materially or meaningfully change the careers of the next 374 00:15:20,600 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 1: big fights for Billy Joe Saunders or Devin Haney. The 375 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 1: answer is it didn't. Then just say what it was. 376 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 1: Eddie Hearn wanted to make money and there's nothing wrong 377 00:15:28,880 --> 00:15:31,080 Speaker 1: with that, and his own wanted to get some cheap views, 378 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: and I get it, but it's got nothing to do 379 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: with boxing Beyond them. 380 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:37,080 Speaker 2: Boxing sells its soul all the time. 381 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 3: This is where they sort of lent out their soul 382 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,200 Speaker 3: for someone else to use it a little bit. It's business. 383 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 3: It's a sleazy transaction. It is what it was. It 384 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 3: was kind of fun in the end, defending if you 385 00:15:46,280 --> 00:15:48,280 Speaker 3: wanted to hate watch it or actually enjoy the drama. 386 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 3: By the way, how about Jack get off my lawn. 387 00:15:51,040 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 3: Reese the referee taking two points away in a six 388 00:15:53,200 --> 00:15:55,320 Speaker 3: round fight. You didn't get into that long and care. 389 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:58,400 Speaker 1: A little bit because his eventual explanation was not so bad. 390 00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: These guys don't know the rules, which was he wanted 391 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: to level the playing field between the knockdown and then 392 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,240 Speaker 1: the rabbit punch. So his answer was, you let the 393 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 1: knockdown count, but then I'll take two points. What he 394 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: didn't want to do was let him hit the guy, 395 00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: plus he knocks him down that I had knocked down earlier. 396 00:16:14,480 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: Here's what I know. I don't give a shit about 397 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 1: two guys with one oh and oh one careers in 398 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: the six round five don't care, don't care even a 399 00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 1: little bit. 400 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 3: Can't wait to get back with this as lame is 401 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,680 Speaker 3: seam Punk in the end or or not as lame? 402 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: No, because Mickey Gall is a real fighter. That's what 403 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 1: you saw. 404 00:16:28,720 --> 00:16:32,200 Speaker 2: Like here's but see him Punctur ain't well, Okay. 405 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: Hence the point. The point being is neither of these 406 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 1: two dubs are real fighters. So the benefit in seeing 407 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: see him Punk go up against Mickey Gall was just 408 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: like what happens when the illusion is shattered? And Mickey 409 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 1: Gall is certainly I mean, he's had his struggles in 410 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: the UFC. He's still young guy himself, so we'll see 411 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 1: what happens. But he's like at the top of the 412 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 1: food chain, welterweight. Like that was just so some. My 413 00:16:53,120 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 1: point is this, you had logo Poul before the fight. 414 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:56,920 Speaker 1: I remember the headlines because my producer was like, should 415 00:16:56,920 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: we talk about this in the show and I was like, no, 416 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: we shouldn't. Local Paul being like, I want to call 417 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: out when I win, I want to go to the UFC. Dude, 418 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: serious question. We know Dylan Danis would pretzel him on 419 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:08,280 Speaker 1: the ground. I think he might out strike him on 420 00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:10,440 Speaker 1: the feet. He had really nothing more than a jab. 421 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: I bet you. 422 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 2: Dylan Paul supposedly has this amateur wrestling background. 423 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, no fifth in the state. It's like great, 424 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 1: Uh dude, I think Dylan Danis would tune him. 425 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 3: Up all right, considering nobody had cardiac arrest and died. 426 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,840 Speaker 3: Is this a less of a stain than Datta and Kimba? 427 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,200 Speaker 1: Yeah? I mean that was like sloppy to the point 428 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:32,400 Speaker 1: of embarrassing. These were just two guys who clearly took 429 00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,400 Speaker 1: it seriously but have limited ability. 430 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 2: It was fun for what it was. I don't want 431 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:36,600 Speaker 2: to see it again. 432 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 3: I don't want to see boxing the Zone or Eddie 433 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 3: Herdon continue to goe down this road. 434 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: Right, There's no need. They're like, oh, a trilogy, and 435 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 1: they both were kind of against the trilogy. I was like, 436 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 1: thank you Jesus uh in any event lasting on this. 437 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: I said this as well on Twitter. If you did 438 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,400 Speaker 1: you see Jake Paul talk yeah with his grills. Yeah. 439 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:54,160 Speaker 1: Nothing makes me miss the Knockout Game more than when 440 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: Jake Paul talks. Oh, I missed the Knockout Game so much. 441 00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: Where did the knockout game. Go when you need it 442 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: the most. You know what I'm saying. All right at 443 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: an't even speaking of moving on because Jay is in 444 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:06,760 Speaker 1: my ear losing his mind. We now go to our 445 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 1: second topic, Nate Diaz over the weekend, we will get 446 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: to UFC Moscow. But Nate Diaz over the weekend had said, well, 447 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,720 Speaker 1: I guess the previous week had said that he didn't 448 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 1: want to rematch fo rematch. He doesn't need it anymore. 449 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,200 Speaker 1: He's moving on, peace out to the fight game. Now. 450 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,400 Speaker 1: We kind of sort of changed his tune a little 451 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: bit over the weekend. I think he told ESPN, you know, 452 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 1: I'll never retire, I'll always be around. Right now, I'll 453 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 1: fight right now, but didn't necessarily give an indication about 454 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 1: when he was coming back against you, didn't really walk 455 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: back the comments about f A rematch. So here he 456 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: is again, Nate Diaz, kind of returning to the fight 457 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,920 Speaker 1: game and then wafting back out again. What is your 458 00:18:44,040 --> 00:18:47,560 Speaker 1: level of fatigue with his I'm in sometimes, I'm out sometimes, 459 00:18:47,640 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 1: and how capricious It all seems. 460 00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 3: Pretty high overall, because like everybody else, we just sat 461 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,200 Speaker 3: through three year layoff at the peak of his physical 462 00:18:54,280 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 3: and commercial prime and he did essentially nothing with it. 463 00:18:56,960 --> 00:18:58,199 Speaker 1: So I'm pretty fatigue. 464 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 3: But look, you gotta understand the mind of Nate Diaz, 465 00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 3: which we'll never understand. Like there's questions that will never 466 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:05,600 Speaker 3: have answers to, right, how do you talk to an angel? 467 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:07,720 Speaker 3: How do you hold her close to where you are? 468 00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 3: And what the hell is Nate Diaz thinking? 469 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 2: Right? I mean, the heights of that are absurd. 470 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,680 Speaker 1: So it's tough. 471 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,400 Speaker 3: It's tough to even have analysis here because that's Nate, 472 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 3: that's who he is. He's gonna lose a fight like 473 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 3: he did and then have almost an excuse on one 474 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:25,680 Speaker 3: breath and then another breath sort of I'm retiring. No, 475 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 3: I'd never said it retiring coming back, So it sort 476 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 3: of just asked me, how did we get here? And 477 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 3: that's where it's going to be hard to figure out 478 00:19:33,160 --> 00:19:34,760 Speaker 3: because you never get it. Nate to sit down on 479 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:36,479 Speaker 3: the couch and talk about his youth and figure out 480 00:19:36,560 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 3: like who hurt him and how to get to this point. 481 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:40,200 Speaker 1: But I think what is a key. 482 00:19:40,080 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 3: Factor in this is heading into that BMF fight, he 483 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:45,480 Speaker 3: had made a dramatic turnaround in terms of the eyes 484 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:47,439 Speaker 3: of his brand in UFC embracing him. 485 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 2: They created this BMF title based on his inspiration. 486 00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 3: He wanted an anti Pedis fight before that, he broke 487 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,199 Speaker 3: his three year lay off and got it, and he 488 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 3: got to this mountaintop, and then he lost trust again. 489 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 3: You saw the thing happened, and then the fight stopping 490 00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,840 Speaker 3: early happened. Now, look, that's not UFC's falt, that's a 491 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 3: commission stopping it to save him. But in the mind 492 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 3: of Nate Diaz, I created this ish, I brought this 493 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,439 Speaker 3: belt into existence. Mosvidal is only a thing because I 494 00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:16,800 Speaker 3: created this to happen, and now you're trying to hurt 495 00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,720 Speaker 3: my name and maybe stop me from having a chance 496 00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 3: to win it. So in the mind of Nate Diaz, 497 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:25,400 Speaker 3: which is always going to be affected by temperamental bits of. 498 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 1: I don't even know how to describe it. 499 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 3: I mean, I mean, how do you really describe it 500 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 3: to try to understand what he's thinking. 501 00:20:32,920 --> 00:20:35,399 Speaker 2: I'll just he's probably jaded and hurt in that regard. 502 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,640 Speaker 3: But how does that play into when he would fight again, 503 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 3: He would have to get back into a level of trust. 504 00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:42,240 Speaker 1: My view on the whole thing is, and this comes 505 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 1: to I if I have been guilty of anything in 506 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,680 Speaker 1: the last few years in giving opinions in the sport 507 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: in any kind of a public way, I have carried 508 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,400 Speaker 1: water for the Diaz brothers. Not in a way where 509 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:51,960 Speaker 1: I'm like, I need to go and support them because 510 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,720 Speaker 1: that's what I do, but because I genuinely believe those things. 511 00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:59,120 Speaker 1: And as a general rule, every UFC fighter, especially the headliners, 512 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: they have their ability to maximize their earnings and other 513 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 1: ways of public visibility suppressed in certain ways. It's magnified 514 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: in certain ways by the UFC machine. It's suppressed in 515 00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:11,359 Speaker 1: certain ways, particularly on the wage side of things. So 516 00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: like when those fighters never fully get satisfied with the 517 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,520 Speaker 1: amount of money they're making, they are absolutely right. I 518 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: support them one hundred percent. So I say that all 519 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 1: to also say, as a DS supporter, something feels off 520 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: about this. For me, I'm a little bit tired of it, 521 00:21:24,760 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 1: if I could be honest with you. I mean, look, 522 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 1: given the caveat that there is some kind of suppression 523 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 1: going on of their wages because the UFC is a 524 00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:35,879 Speaker 1: bit of a monopsony. I'm sympathetic to that, but he 525 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,000 Speaker 1: just came off a situation where you Dana White and 526 00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:40,880 Speaker 1: the UFC went out of their way to exonerate him, 527 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: which they have. 528 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 3: Not think he's jaded in sort of probably a. 529 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: Little bit, but they went out of their way. What Look, 530 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: no one is harsher on the antidoping authorities than me, 531 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,879 Speaker 1: but they did at least take the public step to 532 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 1: exonerate him, which they haven't done for others. Then they 533 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:55,640 Speaker 1: created a title out of nothing for him. They put 534 00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 1: him in a headlining role, They gave him all the 535 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 1: promotion he wants to do. They put it in New York's. 536 00:22:00,160 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 1: He probably made a ton of money from it. It's like, dude, 537 00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:08,480 Speaker 1: on some level, participation in the machine is required. Winning 538 00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: is kind of It's not. You don't have to win 539 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,760 Speaker 1: every time. Horne Mazdol is living proof. But you got 540 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 1: to win enough. You got to do a little bit 541 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: here on your end of the beyond just the marketing 542 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 1: of it and getting people to care, you have to 543 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,160 Speaker 1: do kind of win a little bit. I mean, look, 544 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:24,159 Speaker 1: it's the ultimate fighting Dot Dot Championship. It is rooted 545 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: into what we evaluate, it is rooted into what we care. 546 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 1: And look, if he's a fighter who made a bunch 547 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 1: of money and he doesn't want to fight. This is 548 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: not me saying you have to honor what me or 549 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,879 Speaker 1: the fans say. You got to live your life the 550 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 1: best way you want and all those damage those guys 551 00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 1: have taken. They have a right to come and go 552 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 1: as they please. I'm not suggesting otherwise, but as somebody 553 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 1: who likes it when they fight and cares about their interests, 554 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:49,159 Speaker 1: this one, to me felt a little off. I was 555 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:52,200 Speaker 1: a little bit looking at this one being like, really, dude, again, 556 00:22:52,240 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 1: we're again, We're here with this one, because what more 557 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 1: without a union or the court busting this, this this 558 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,600 Speaker 1: monopsothy up? What more as possible? I honestly don't know. 559 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,320 Speaker 1: I'm one hundred percent agreeing with you on Sorry, what 560 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:04,680 Speaker 1: you're saying. 561 00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:06,000 Speaker 3: You know, it's all okay at this point to be 562 00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:08,040 Speaker 3: fatigued and say, innate, what else do you want? 563 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: I'm trying to. 564 00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 3: Get in his head and trying to figure out, like, 565 00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:12,000 Speaker 3: what motivates It doesn't seem to be money. 566 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 2: If it was money, he would have filled in those 567 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:14,200 Speaker 2: three years lost. 568 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: It's just clearly, anybody, it is clearly money. 569 00:23:16,280 --> 00:23:18,520 Speaker 3: It's money to a degree, though it's money wrapped in 570 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 3: loyalty and an appreciation for what he brings and you, yes, 571 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 3: you could one hundred percent argue they just rolled out 572 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,720 Speaker 3: the red carpet of appreciation and they created the bell. 573 00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 2: But you've got a defensive. 574 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,679 Speaker 3: Person here who seems wounded, in jaded, and he's just 575 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 3: waiting to go. 576 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:31,920 Speaker 1: See. 577 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 3: I told you, I told you that this is all 578 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,719 Speaker 3: a trap. I told you that they don't care. So 579 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 3: under that guys, how they book his next fight, and 580 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 3: if that fight can be booked is going to be 581 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:44,040 Speaker 3: so crucial because yes, he's got the Connor trilogy to 582 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,160 Speaker 3: eventually cash in on. Right now is not the time 583 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 3: Connor's got to prove himself and seems to still have 584 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 3: one more run, at least at the title level. 585 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:52,160 Speaker 2: Who the heck is Nate going to fight next? 586 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,920 Speaker 3: That would give him the main event placement and money 587 00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:59,200 Speaker 3: he would desire, and a meaningful enough fight to actually 588 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:00,920 Speaker 3: main event, but dentially a pay per view. 589 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,520 Speaker 2: Well that wouldn't insult him. 590 00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 3: When he's in a spot thinking of my last four fights, 591 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 3: I may invented the BMF at the Garden and set 592 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 3: records twice with Connor. 593 00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 1: You owe me this. 594 00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 3: So it's going to be a precarious walk right now, 595 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 3: because if he's going to stay stubborn and sort of 596 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:15,720 Speaker 3: Jayson there. 597 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,720 Speaker 2: He actually may never fight again for three years. 598 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 1: He'll fight again, and to dis is always wise to 599 00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 1: let the game cycle through a little bit. You know 600 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,679 Speaker 1: who was Jarge Masswital in January first, twenty nineteen. He 601 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 1: wasn't a guy that everyone was just sort of really 602 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: caring about. Look at him now. Things have changed, so 603 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: fortunes for certain fighters they'll bubble up, they'll change, and 604 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: he'll pick a spot. I'm not worried about that. And 605 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,199 Speaker 1: also behind the scenes, who knows what the UFC told him. 606 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: He might really believe he's entitled to a rematch. Jorge 607 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 1: said he would give him a rematch, and maybe the 608 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:42,960 Speaker 1: UFC is just saying no. In boxing, if you have 609 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,399 Speaker 1: to A or two A sides, or AM to b 610 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 1: W however you want to put it. But two high 611 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: profile fighters like this and they want to fight each other, 612 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 1: the promoters in all likelihood would accommodate both short of 613 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: some kind of sanctioning body getting in the way. And 614 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: so I understand that frustration. Here's what it is to me. 615 00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: It's probably look, man, there is just some difficulties between 616 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:02,960 Speaker 1: the Diaz brothers and the UFC that they just can't 617 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: get over and I understand that too. All I can 618 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:07,920 Speaker 1: do is speak as a Nate dis sympathizer and frankly 619 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:10,040 Speaker 1: a bit of a fan of his work. It was 620 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:12,399 Speaker 1: a little fatiguing for me to watch that, and I 621 00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,159 Speaker 1: would be lying to the audience if I came on 622 00:25:14,200 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: here and said I didn't feel that way. I do 623 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: feel that way, as much as I understand where he's 624 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,680 Speaker 1: at and he should live his life absolutely the way 625 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: he's earned it. I was a little disappointed by. 626 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,720 Speaker 3: The whole Well, he knows his value now or or 627 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:29,560 Speaker 3: always has, and it's you know, it's clouded by by 628 00:25:29,600 --> 00:25:32,119 Speaker 3: his beliefs in himself, sometimes to a larger degree than 629 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: the actually are. But he knows his value where I 630 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,040 Speaker 3: don't see him ever being somebody that will stay active 631 00:25:36,080 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 3: and eventually become a punching bag to the stars. Now 632 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: I feel like he's only going to continue to sit 633 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 3: and wait for that perfect opportunity. 634 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 2: I just don't know. 635 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 3: And fair to what you say about Look, Horae Moswell 636 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 3: wasn't Horriy Moswell until this year. 637 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 2: Who's that person right now that really justifies. 638 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:52,440 Speaker 1: Short of Connor, I don't. 639 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 3: Know giving him that type of money that would make 640 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 3: him that fired up. They did the BMF thing, but 641 00:25:57,119 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 3: Mosvidal has it or won it. I may never see 642 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,360 Speaker 3: it again. So what do you do now? No, matchmaker, 643 00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 3: what do you do? 644 00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:05,080 Speaker 1: You wait? Or if they come to him and say 645 00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,320 Speaker 1: welterweight title shot, he might take that. I know for 646 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:09,360 Speaker 1: a fact they offered him the fight against Tyron Woodley UFS. 647 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:10,399 Speaker 1: He can say what they want to know. For a 648 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,320 Speaker 1: fact they offered it to him. He just asked for 649 00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:15,399 Speaker 1: a lot more than they were willing to pay, and 650 00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:16,520 Speaker 1: so eventually they just denied. 651 00:26:16,520 --> 00:26:17,800 Speaker 2: I don't think you can get too mad at them, though, 652 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:18,680 Speaker 2: because this is what you're saying. 653 00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 1: I'm not mad at him, but no, no, are you kidding. 654 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm not mad at him at all for that. I'm 655 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:23,680 Speaker 1: just simply saying that's what that's what ended up scuttling. 656 00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 2: Do you have more sympathy for the UFC and the 657 00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:26,639 Speaker 2: issues that they've had with him? 658 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 1: No? No, no, I take the das's side in virtually all 659 00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: of those. It's just at some point, dude, the clock 660 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: is ticking. You're gonna be thirty five if you're in 661 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,119 Speaker 1: a DAS in April. You know, what is it you 662 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:37,159 Speaker 1: really want? And again, maybe he wants to do exactly 663 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: what he's doing, in which case fine, case closed. But 664 00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 1: it's like the Daz brothers are allowed to feel the 665 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 1: way they're allowed to feel, and the US is allowed 666 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:46,800 Speaker 1: to feel the way they're allowed to feel. Well, so 667 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:49,359 Speaker 1: are we? So are we? So are we the consumers 668 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: of the das product. We are allowed to feel the 669 00:26:51,680 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 1: way we feel. Which is as much as I am 670 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 1: sympathetic to them, and truly I mean that they have 671 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 1: been done wrong for a very long time. I've been 672 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:01,439 Speaker 1: saying it four years. They made a title for the 673 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 1: guy man like it's like on some level, I don't know, 674 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:05,320 Speaker 1: I just I don't know how you appease them? 675 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 3: Well, I hear you. I mean, how do you appease 676 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,959 Speaker 3: a guy who smokes two joints in the morning, smokes 677 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:09,679 Speaker 3: two joints at night. 678 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:11,640 Speaker 1: Right, you're here, smokes. 679 00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,120 Speaker 2: Two joints at time of peace and two in time 680 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:13,440 Speaker 2: of war. 681 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 1: I mean this. You apparently have a YouTube question that's real. 682 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: Mister McGregor and others play the same game. Isn't it 683 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 1: all hype? What do you think? Uh? Yeah, it's all hype. 684 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:22,960 Speaker 2: And positioning to agree. 685 00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,800 Speaker 3: Nate Diaz does it in a weirder, sort of almost 686 00:27:25,840 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 3: backwards way compared to the normal person. But yeah, in 687 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 3: the end, in the long run, it's all sort of 688 00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 3: I'm walking away, I'm going you know, I'm going after 689 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:34,840 Speaker 3: the cheese whatever connors at the time, it's all sort 690 00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 3: of lumped in the same I think though with Nate 691 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,199 Speaker 3: there's sort of an extra level of craziness and stubbornness. Now, 692 00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 3: I mean, maybe that's no different than a Habib being 693 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 3: crazy stubborn and what he does as well. 694 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,080 Speaker 1: But there's resentment built up between I think both Daz 695 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 1: brothers in the UFC, and I don't blame them for it. 696 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,880 Speaker 3: When you say a consumer of Daz is you mean 697 00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 3: the fighting are their strand of CBD. 698 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 1: I've had their CBD. It's it's a good company, all right. 699 00:27:58,359 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 1: In any event, let's move on to the next topic. 700 00:28:00,160 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 1: There were some fights over the weekend. You wouldn't know 701 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,479 Speaker 1: based on our rundown, but here we are. UFC Moscow 702 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:07,840 Speaker 1: took place in Moscow, Russia. Not the greatest card in 703 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 1: the world, but the main event was zubeat Mega met Cheripov. Well, 704 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 1: I wish I'm not defending anything, but certainly getting his 705 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 1: sixth UFC win in defeating Calvin Cator in a A 706 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:20,480 Speaker 1: I would argue relatively close about here, Brian Cable. The 707 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 1: question is Zubeat Maga met Scheriapov ready for the winner 708 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,879 Speaker 1: of Alexander Volkanowski versus Max Holloway. I would argue to 709 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: you that he is. He is probably not based on 710 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: what we have seen. Now here's what I would mean. Yeah, 711 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 1: if you mean yourself. Okay, So if you look at 712 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 1: the rankings, because all people they seem to forget this. 713 00:28:37,520 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 1: It's like, how are title shots handed out? Who's winning, 714 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 1: who's at the top, and frankly who's available? Really are you? 715 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,160 Speaker 1: Are you just ready to fight? Is often a pretty 716 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,840 Speaker 1: key consideration. So he's near the top of that division 717 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 1: in a very important way. He's absolutely no matter what 718 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: on that short list, Brian Ortega is ahead of him. 719 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:57,640 Speaker 1: But Brian Ortega, if he beats Korean Zombie, would only 720 00:28:57,720 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: have to win one time to get another title shot. 721 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 1: Especially if Max wins, You're like, really they're gonna do that? Now? 722 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 1: If Wolkonovski wins, it gets a little dicey. My hunch 723 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:10,360 Speaker 1: is if Korean Zombie after beating Hanatsomwaikano comes back and 724 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: also beats Brian Ortega. I suspect they'll set him up 725 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 1: for a title shot, but zabeat is kind of right there. 726 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 1: The question, though, is not whether is he worthy of 727 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: a title shot in as much as it is to 728 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 1: me like, how would it really go? Six wins in 729 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 1: the UFC has nothing to sneeze at, and he's got 730 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 1: submissions I think in two or three of them, one 731 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,280 Speaker 1: of them spectacularly with that Ssulo web stretch he hit 732 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,680 Speaker 1: on Brandon Davis from the Contender series. At the same time, Dude, 733 00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: watching this fight, did you not get the feeling that 734 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: somebody like Max Holloway, who can go the distance through 735 00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 1: championship rounds, who can define the boxing exchanges on his terms, 736 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:46,400 Speaker 1: who can stuff takedowns? This guy continuously in the Bokaniak fight, 737 00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:48,720 Speaker 1: in the Stevens fight, and now in this fight. He 738 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 1: doesn't exactly fade in the third round, but his style changes. 739 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: We went over it on Dissected. You look at the 740 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: numbers in all three of those fights, they shoot through 741 00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 1: the roof for the opponent, so his numbers stay constant, 742 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 1: but his opponents turn it on. Dude, that tells you 743 00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 1: something is up that never happens. Let me tell you 744 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:05,320 Speaker 1: the elite guys. So here's my point. Against two guys 745 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,520 Speaker 1: who can volume strike, who have good defense, who have 746 00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: good takedown defense, and have better cardial through the fourth 747 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: and the fifth round, I think they're bad matchups for 748 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: the current version of Sabitan. Now he's young, he can grow, 749 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:18,520 Speaker 1: he can develop. Let's see how things go. If we 750 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 1: have to learn any lesson from Kevin Lee and Darren Till, 751 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: it's to pump the brakes on the criticism for guys 752 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 1: who are still in their early to mid and even 753 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,800 Speaker 1: a little bit late twenties at the same time. Based 754 00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:28,880 Speaker 1: on what I saw in this fight, this fight alone, 755 00:30:29,160 --> 00:30:30,800 Speaker 1: does that make me think he's a legitimate threat to 756 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: either Volkanovsky or Holloway. No, it does not. 757 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 3: I think it depends on how you perceive this fight, Okay, 758 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,480 Speaker 3: because I'm almost the exact opposite feeling coming off this 759 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 3: fight is you and you have to sort of lay 760 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 3: some things down at the groundworking foundation. You can take 761 00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 3: them for what they are. But Zabait was honest afterwards 762 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:47,240 Speaker 3: and saying I had an illness. It affected me. I 763 00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 3: didn't have the stamina in this case with the sickness 764 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,280 Speaker 3: to go hard in that third round and sort of 765 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,600 Speaker 3: fight at my normal pace. I get Professor Salton Pepper, 766 00:30:53,640 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 3: you can bring up all these stats from the other 767 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 3: fights to try to make your point, and that's fine. 768 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 3: Did he leave the back door open for Calvin Cator 769 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 3: who got aggresive and the tank at the end to 770 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 3: make it two to one on the cards. Sure, good 771 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 3: effort from there. Calvin Cator's also a tough out. What 772 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:08,800 Speaker 3: I saw was a guy who is ready for Max Holloway. 773 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,920 Speaker 3: And here's why we didn't see Ze beat wrestle or 774 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 3: try to wrestle outside of that one half hard to 775 00:31:13,680 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 3: take down really in the second round, and I think 776 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,200 Speaker 3: and I think he was really setting himself up for 777 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 3: what the fight would look like and be against Max Holloway, 778 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,680 Speaker 3: almost using this fight against Cater as sort of a 779 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 3: testing ground. Calvin Cator not Max Holloway, but a volume 780 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 3: striker and an aggressive guy who'll come after you. 781 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 2: And I think what I saw in this. 782 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 3: One was the beat sort of draw on that line 783 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,680 Speaker 3: and the stand in front of himself and saying I'm 784 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,720 Speaker 3: gonna play that line defensively, and I'm gonna counter and 785 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 3: I'm gonna still be that creative wizard coming from all 786 00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:38,440 Speaker 3: the angles, but I'm gonna do it a little bit 787 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 3: more subtly because when he does face it against Max, 788 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 3: the wrestling probably won't be a big factor because the 789 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,640 Speaker 3: maxis takedown ability and Max is gonna be a volume 790 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,280 Speaker 3: guy who's gonna be fainting and coming at him in 791 00:31:47,320 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 3: a lot of ways. And from that standpoint of preparing 792 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 3: for a guy in that level, I really liked what's 793 00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 3: the Beat did in this fight. 794 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 2: I mean, he did a lot of the sort of. 795 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 3: Next level stuff that makes him unique, but he did 796 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:00,960 Speaker 3: it very subtly in the way he was switching things 797 00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 3: up and setting up his attacks, and I almost felt 798 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,600 Speaker 3: like he was using that fight as a proving and 799 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:07,920 Speaker 3: testing ground for it. And I came out of there going, Yes, 800 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 3: he didn't get a finish, he didn't look spectacular or 801 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,120 Speaker 3: finished strong, but if you're gonna believe what he says 802 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,760 Speaker 3: about the illness, and look, guys where he comes from, 803 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:16,960 Speaker 3: they don't storm to f around with lies. They sort 804 00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 3: of just bring the truth and it is what it is. 805 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:22,040 Speaker 3: I think I've seen enough from him now in six 806 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 3: UFC fights, that he's going to be a problem for Max. 807 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 3: And to his statement he said about or Alex or 808 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 3: Alex that I that he's only shown forty percent of 809 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 3: how good he can be. And when people hear that rightfully, 810 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 3: I think they can be like, Okay, yeah, whatever. He's 811 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:38,720 Speaker 3: a guy who when you press him, you're going to 812 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 3: get the best out of him. 813 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:40,800 Speaker 1: And I think when. 814 00:32:40,640 --> 00:32:43,440 Speaker 3: Max does and really brings it, it's going to be 815 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:44,360 Speaker 3: as hard. 816 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:45,760 Speaker 2: Of an out as they have in that division. 817 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 3: So I don't come out of that fight thinking it 818 00:32:47,640 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 3: was a boring fight, which some people were saying, or 819 00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 3: thinking that he's not ready for prime time. 820 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,200 Speaker 2: When you take all those factors in together, I would. 821 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:56,600 Speaker 1: I will grant you that as a method of getting 822 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:59,200 Speaker 1: ready for a Volkanovsky or a Holloway, because, by the way, 823 00:32:59,200 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: I think Volkovski is the toughest challenge Holloways had to date. 824 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: Then yes, you're right, like not relying on the takedown 825 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,040 Speaker 1: is important. And he had the foot sweep, he had 826 00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:07,880 Speaker 1: the one single leg attempt, and then he finally got 827 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: the takedown when he had the double switch toe in 828 00:33:09,960 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: the third round from Calvincator. He had thrown those in 829 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,160 Speaker 1: the two previous rounds, but not so close in distance. 830 00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,440 Speaker 1: The point is one, while he may have had an illness, 831 00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 1: and I take that seriously, his opponents clearly show in 832 00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: his last two fights before this one that they turn 833 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:25,360 Speaker 1: it on in the third round. So this is hardly 834 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 1: an anomaly. This is a bit of a trend. Number one, 835 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 1: Number two. While it's important he fought that way, I 836 00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 1: acknowledge I'm not seeing what exactly is the threat to 837 00:33:35,040 --> 00:33:37,680 Speaker 1: Max Holloway. What is it that he does that would 838 00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: slow him down, that would make him hard to hit. 839 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 1: I mean, he does all those things really really well, 840 00:33:43,040 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 1: but certainly not in a way that would be I 841 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,600 Speaker 1: think especially difficult for a Halloway or a Volkanovsky to find, 842 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:51,720 Speaker 1: particularly the case with Volkanovsky, who can slam the gas 843 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 1: pedal from beginning to the end hold up. So the 844 00:33:54,280 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 1: point being is people talk about all the spinning backfists 845 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,400 Speaker 1: and then the hookkicks you go through the tape, dude, 846 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: they don't really ever hardly land. They serve a purpose 847 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: in backing an opponent up and then confusing him about 848 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 1: what's coming. But by the third round in the Bokaniak 849 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:10,640 Speaker 1: fight and in the Stevens fight, and now in this fight, 850 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 1: opponents begin to realize there's not nearly as much of 851 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: a threat there in terms of materially landing as we 852 00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,239 Speaker 1: may think there is. And that's why you keep seeing 853 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: the numbers go up and up and up and up. 854 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm not suggesting to you that he can't win. What 855 00:34:23,680 --> 00:34:26,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying is I think a little bit more seasoning 856 00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,960 Speaker 1: is in order, maybe one more that may not happen 857 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,800 Speaker 1: because of availability. They want to make a title shot. 858 00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:34,120 Speaker 1: Maybe the zombie gets hurt. I get it, but I 859 00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 1: didn't look at that thinking to myself, Wow, Max Holloway 860 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 1: has his hands full. I do think that looking at 861 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: Alexander Volkonovsky, Volkovsky is an absolutely serious threat to the 862 00:34:42,600 --> 00:34:45,640 Speaker 1: throne of the Hawaiian king. This guy, while I think 863 00:34:45,680 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 1: he is extremely talented, he's a bit of a round winner. 864 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: He's a bit of a round winner against the guy 865 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: like Holloway who will pour it on you, and against 866 00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 1: Dustin Ployrie. He had a big power he had to 867 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 1: deal with. Zubit does not have big power. I think 868 00:34:57,920 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna get marched down. 869 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 3: Well, the zibet'srill, you know, I get what you're saying. 870 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 3: The flashiness is sometimes more of just a look, and 871 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,960 Speaker 3: sometimes he uses the threat of a potential flashiness just 872 00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 3: to set up in a regular counter strike. 873 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 1: Now he was doing that throwing his hand in the 874 00:35:10,320 --> 00:35:11,920 Speaker 1: air and trying to throw distractions, or he fikes the 875 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: elbow and then comes over. 876 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:14,400 Speaker 3: And I get, Look, some of that's just not going 877 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,760 Speaker 3: to work against Max. But what does the beat do best? 878 00:35:17,120 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 3: He creatively counters in such dangerous ways at weird angles 879 00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:23,040 Speaker 3: that you can't prepare for, which would be perfect against 880 00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:25,680 Speaker 3: somebody like Max who goys on you, gets in your 881 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,799 Speaker 3: ass and is there the whole fight coming at you. 882 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 3: I'm not saying Max is easy to be hit or carnered. 883 00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 3: Max is obviously controls length and distance so well and 884 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 3: really faints to set up his shots. But I think, 885 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:37,839 Speaker 3: true to what he said about the forty percent, Luke, 886 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 3: you're not gonna see how great the beat can be 887 00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 3: until a great fighter forces that out of him. So 888 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:45,320 Speaker 3: that's why I think he's a much tougher route against 889 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,120 Speaker 3: a Max than he would be against any of these 890 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 3: secondary guys that he's going through, because they're not fighting at. 891 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,239 Speaker 2: That volume with that skill to force him to have 892 00:35:52,239 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 2: to be that. 893 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 1: It's clear that the guys top five and down aren't 894 00:35:55,440 --> 00:35:57,680 Speaker 1: that much of a threat to him. What I would 895 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 1: say is, again, we'll see how the title shot pictures 896 00:36:00,040 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: shakes out. He might be next. I think we probably 897 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,239 Speaker 1: both agree on this one. If he doesn't get the 898 00:36:04,239 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 1: next shot, okay, for whatever reason, I want to see 899 00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: him in a five round fight. I think he has 900 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:10,680 Speaker 1: not been in one. I want to see it. 901 00:36:10,800 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 3: I would like to see you get on the board. 902 00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 3: With the Dagistani trend of chopping off the mustards. 903 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 1: Why do they why do they do the Amish thing? 904 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:21,560 Speaker 1: I don't know? Is their culture? I remember? What does 905 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,880 Speaker 1: it signify? Do you know? I actually don't know. 906 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:25,359 Speaker 2: Maybe a love of American history. 907 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 3: I don't know, Luke, But you know, any thoughts on 908 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:29,040 Speaker 3: any possibility, I don't know. 909 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:30,800 Speaker 2: I've got stash yourself. 910 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:35,000 Speaker 1: No zero chance, all right. I like my bigote, Greg Hardy. 911 00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:38,560 Speaker 1: Brian Campbell was also on the card, losing to Alexander Volkov. 912 00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 1: We had talked about it on this very show, about 913 00:36:41,800 --> 00:36:43,960 Speaker 1: whether he would win, whether he would not. We were 914 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:46,760 Speaker 1: both wrong. I'd say it was a little less wrong 915 00:36:46,840 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 1: than you. I'll explain just a minute. But any event, 916 00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: he gave Volkov about the best fight that he could 917 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: given the circumstances, given his lack of relative time in 918 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 1: the sport, and then of course, given the fact that 919 00:36:57,600 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: it was a bit of a short notice. What can 920 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,320 Speaker 1: we say about his UFC run to date, Greg Hardy, 921 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: Greg Hardy. 922 00:37:03,040 --> 00:37:04,080 Speaker 2: That's a work in progress. 923 00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 3: He over achieved from the standpoint of not being an 924 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:12,760 Speaker 3: easy out against a Volkov, of showing much greater defensive abilities, 925 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,120 Speaker 3: I thought, and to not leave himself open and to 926 00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 3: be able to hang. But I think something happened along 927 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 3: the way in this fight, and it's what Teddy Atlas 928 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 3: always calls the silent agreement, in which there was a 929 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 3: certain point where Greg Hardy basically said to Volkov, I'm 930 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 3: only gonna try to knock you out going so far 931 00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,720 Speaker 3: and won't go over that line, and Volkov was seemingly 932 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,319 Speaker 3: content to say, as long as you don't go over 933 00:37:31,320 --> 00:37:33,360 Speaker 3: that line, I will continue to jab you and we 934 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 3: can go the distance here. 935 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:35,359 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it. 936 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 3: Was as splicit as that, but I think that's the 937 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,120 Speaker 3: way the fight fell into there. And I know Hardy 938 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 3: injured his hand, and I know all those things. I 939 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,279 Speaker 3: think this is a win for Hardy in the long run. 940 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 3: He certainly did not embarrass himself. And he went in 941 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 3: there in a fight against in which all of us 942 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:49,880 Speaker 3: quote unquote experts like me were like, he's gonna get 943 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:51,719 Speaker 3: his ass kicked. He didn't get his ass kicked. No. 944 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,160 Speaker 3: He also, at the same time didn't show you, in 945 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 3: my opinion, that he's really anywhere better than he was. 946 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:03,400 Speaker 2: Right, showed good survival. Didn't show me that he's had 947 00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 2: a better spot to win fights. 948 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,120 Speaker 1: Didn't. He didn't. And again you can see what you 949 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,279 Speaker 1: want about the Inhaler thing and then the shot on 950 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:13,879 Speaker 1: the UFC debut at USC Brooklyn. He didn't cheat right like. 951 00:38:13,800 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 3: He like literally he really had the point to be like, well, 952 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 3: let's let's first say this, he didn't cheat. 953 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: Let's give What I mean to say is it's a 954 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 1: clean chance to judge three rounds without any intervening factor. 955 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: So you can look at it and you can say, hey, 956 00:38:25,239 --> 00:38:27,480 Speaker 1: what do we learn here. I think it's a goldilock situation. 957 00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 1: Right on the one hand, you have the people who 958 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:31,799 Speaker 1: hyped him up. Here's Greg Hardy. He was, by the way, 959 00:38:31,880 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: in his prime, an excellent football American football player aggressive. 960 00:38:37,360 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 2: You can just say football and we got no. 961 00:38:40,080 --> 00:38:42,000 Speaker 1: No, you you can just say football. 962 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 2: I'm not. 963 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 1: Unlike you. I respect our global viewers, buddy. You should 964 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 1: get on board. In any event, he was an excellent player, okay, 965 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,160 Speaker 1: And so then he he had his own situations. He 966 00:38:53,160 --> 00:38:55,000 Speaker 1: gets to the UFC and you think yourself, Wow, you 967 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:56,880 Speaker 1: don't have athletes like this at heavyweight hardly at all. 968 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: And there were these grand expectations. Now I'm not suggesting 969 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,960 Speaker 1: that the or has closed on him ever achieving them, 970 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 1: not saying that at all. What I'm saying is, up 971 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 1: to this point, this idea he was going to race 972 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,280 Speaker 1: to the front of the division is just not accurate. 973 00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: He still might get there incrementally, but the idea that 974 00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,480 Speaker 1: he was going to be some kind of new wave challenger, no, 975 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: that's not true, at least not yet. On the other hand, 976 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,919 Speaker 1: you had all of his detractors being like, I hope 977 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 1: somebody knocks this guy the f out. Volkov has the 978 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,520 Speaker 1: best chance, and he sits here in mouth breeze the 979 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 1: way he does. You would have thought Volkov man, he 980 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:29,919 Speaker 1: would have gone there and just run over him, and. 981 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 3: He try it. He didn't try to go over there 982 00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 3: run okay, But it turns out Greg Hardy is a 983 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,279 Speaker 3: little too good for that. 984 00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 1: So he's kind of found the spot in between where 985 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,120 Speaker 1: what you can tell is when you look at the 986 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:42,280 Speaker 1: tape on him, he has clearly gotten better at footwork quickly. 987 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,799 Speaker 1: He's gotten really good at knowing where I need to 988 00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:48,240 Speaker 1: be defensive sensibilities. He just doesn't have very many weapons 989 00:39:48,440 --> 00:39:48,919 Speaker 1: and so well. 990 00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 3: That's the key, the ability to survive, which probably comes 991 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,680 Speaker 3: wrong training against a JDS and att you know, the 992 00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:55,680 Speaker 3: ability to survive was was very good. 993 00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 1: Right, he does doesn't have enough offensive weapons, so he 994 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:01,440 Speaker 1: ends up being kind of boring, little bit boring because 995 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,800 Speaker 1: he's in this middle zone where he hasn't quite fully 996 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,000 Speaker 1: matured as a technician, but he's got enough to stay 997 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:10,800 Speaker 1: in the fight against good guys. It just lets everybody. 998 00:40:11,040 --> 00:40:13,040 Speaker 2: It's like, knock him out or get knocked out? 999 00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:13,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, what are you doing? 1000 00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 2: Being so average in the end, But he's not average. 1001 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:19,480 Speaker 1: He's still a decent prospect. It's just he's not what 1002 00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:21,720 Speaker 1: anyone said he was going to be, either for good 1003 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 1: or for bad, not yet anyway. But the jury stallota 1004 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 1: suppose a little bit. How much longer do you give 1005 00:40:25,960 --> 00:40:27,759 Speaker 1: am or two. Before you say that's kind of who 1006 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 1: he is, I think it's I think he's a lot 1007 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 1: closer to being who he is. 1008 00:40:31,719 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 3: Although I look, I agree, like I said, he was 1009 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,239 Speaker 3: better at survival than I thought he would be. He 1010 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 3: didn't gas out at the you know, badly at the 1011 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,800 Speaker 3: end of the third like he did against the wombat. 1012 00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 3: But the ceiling's coming. I mean, how much more can 1013 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 3: you evolve? I know heavyweights have a longer window, they 1014 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,080 Speaker 3: have a larger opportunity late in age, and he doesn't 1015 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,920 Speaker 3: have the damage in the mileage you would think, although 1016 00:40:50,960 --> 00:40:53,160 Speaker 3: you can't really calculate what the NFL career does to 1017 00:40:53,160 --> 00:40:56,280 Speaker 3: slow down your your overall meter and inside the cage. 1018 00:40:56,280 --> 00:40:59,480 Speaker 1: But there was some it's weird. 1019 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:02,800 Speaker 3: It was a plus and it was a win in defeat, 1020 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:04,839 Speaker 3: but there was a sobering element to it. 1021 00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 1: Right right, I mean it was it was. It's it's 1022 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 1: very complicated because on certain fronts you're like, wow, that's 1023 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 1: pretty impressive. In another front you're like, yeah, but but 1024 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,719 Speaker 1: there's lingering problems there, and so you never really know 1025 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:15,640 Speaker 1: what quite you. 1026 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:17,920 Speaker 3: Agree without a volkof at all, not for not giving 1027 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,879 Speaker 3: what people wanted from that regard when it was there. 1028 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 1: Do you think it was there? No? 1029 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:24,879 Speaker 2: Or maybe he's still thinking about Derek Lewis in the back. 1030 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 1: My hunch is Greg Hardy does have really good power. 1031 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:29,920 Speaker 1: Every heavyweight does, but I'm guessing he does. And I 1032 00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: my hunch is that Volkov probably was fearful of it, 1033 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,080 Speaker 1: and so it was like, you know, and then it 1034 00:41:35,239 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: was just like if I can win this way, I'm 1035 00:41:36,320 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 1: gonna win this way. I'm in my hometown. Plus, we've 1036 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 1: seen it before, man, Guys who are a sides take 1037 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:43,560 Speaker 1: our better fighters, take fights on short notice, and then 1038 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:45,439 Speaker 1: they look kind of weird even in a win. John 1039 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 1: Jones versus osp is a sort of a classic example. 1040 00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:49,960 Speaker 1: There have been many other ones as well. Uh. He 1041 00:41:50,040 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 1: probably was just like, dude, I'm not gonna risk nothing 1042 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: on this guy. I'm just gonna get in there and 1043 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: get the job done and get out. And he did. 1044 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:56,560 Speaker 1: So what are you gonna do? All right? Last, but 1045 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 1: not least, dude, how is this thing just still going on? 1046 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:01,839 Speaker 1: Have you even conn or just going after each other? 1047 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,560 Speaker 1: Let's start on the Connor side. So during UFC Moscow, 1048 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 1: Connor began to tweet and then ultimately delete a series 1049 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 1: of taunts towards the cousin of the UFC lightweight champion 1050 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:14,200 Speaker 1: and rival hbib Nember got made off. His cousin, of course, 1051 00:42:14,239 --> 00:42:16,720 Speaker 1: is Abba Bucar. Nember got made off. Who was fighting 1052 00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,960 Speaker 1: well enough from coming from the PFL announce to UFC. 1053 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 2: Wait, was it was he one of the guys who 1054 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:22,439 Speaker 2: ran in the CAJ two twenty nine. 1055 00:42:22,560 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 1: I don't believe that's correct, but I honestly don't know. 1056 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: I can't, I can't even I don't even care. 1057 00:42:26,640 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 2: At this point, I thought he was one of the 1058 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 2: one of the guys that got suspended. 1059 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:31,200 Speaker 1: He might have been, I don't, I honestly don't. I 1060 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 1: gave so little attention to that, Believe it or not. 1061 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,399 Speaker 1: People thought that that was like and square in terms 1062 00:42:36,400 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: of gravity of things in combats. Could could have been yeah, 1063 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 1: but we got lucky. But it also wasn't any. 1064 00:42:41,800 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 2: It could have been the modern palace brawl. 1065 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: Okay, uh no, they weren't wearing fighting fans. They were 1066 00:42:46,719 --> 00:42:51,360 Speaker 1: fighting each other. In any event, he lost be a 1067 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,960 Speaker 1: triangle number got madeoff. Did not the senior but the 1068 00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 1: cousin Abba Bokar, and Connor took to Twitter and called 1069 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:01,320 Speaker 1: him a ship bag and him said he was disgraced 1070 00:43:01,360 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 1: forever for doing it. What did you make of Connor 1071 00:43:04,520 --> 00:43:07,040 Speaker 1: tweeting all those things? The nature of this tweet's given 1072 00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,680 Speaker 1: that he has lost via submission to his rival's cousin 1073 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 1: and then deleting it all. 1074 00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 3: It's completely on brand for Connor to do that. So 1075 00:43:14,760 --> 00:43:17,280 Speaker 3: I'm actually for that from that regard, he's a trash talker. 1076 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,600 Speaker 3: He's got obvious beef with the extended Normaga medav family 1077 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,840 Speaker 3: and in the larger team for running in and attacking, 1078 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 3: which is a small element that I think sometimes we 1079 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,960 Speaker 3: do look over. He was sort of blindsided and an 1080 00:43:26,960 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 3: attack from behind, although look it was not premeditated. I mean, 1081 00:43:30,680 --> 00:43:33,240 Speaker 3: you know, you know what happened in April in Brooklyn 1082 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:36,359 Speaker 3: and all that, But deleting them that ain't That ain't 1083 00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 3: the real that's not gangster, that's not BMF to, that's 1084 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,640 Speaker 3: not BMF territory. I mean, like, I get, if you're 1085 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,120 Speaker 3: going to make fun of, you know, Habib's wife and 1086 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 3: touch on the culture side of it, you want to 1087 00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:47,399 Speaker 3: get away from that, you delete that crap. 1088 00:43:47,480 --> 00:43:49,880 Speaker 1: But this was sort of like you can't leave that 1089 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:51,560 Speaker 1: out there. What do you make of the idea that's like, 1090 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: you know, look, they're not equivalent. The way Abbubucar lost 1091 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 1: to somebody who is not nearly of the level and 1092 00:43:57,800 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 1: the way that Connor lost to habib it was fort 1093 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: of Light Championship. Right. One is much harder and more 1094 00:44:02,480 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 1: difficult to come by than the other, but both have 1095 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 1: typically lost in the UFC by submission. What do you 1096 00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:08,879 Speaker 1: make of him making fun of somebody else for also 1097 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 1: losing via submission. I get the irony. I get you 1098 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,840 Speaker 1: want to you know, I'm not suggesting me. It's like 1099 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:18,840 Speaker 1: Connor twitters stick. I'm just over it. This is just 1100 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: kind of weird. 1101 00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:20,440 Speaker 2: So this is where I'm at in general. 1102 00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,479 Speaker 3: And I feel like I've been here many different times 1103 00:44:23,560 --> 00:44:26,000 Speaker 3: in this roller coaster of the last what year plus 1104 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 3: since Connor fought like fight or get the hell off 1105 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:33,760 Speaker 3: my timeline, because I'm really past the point of caring. 1106 00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:35,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I like, I got into it a little 1107 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 2: bit with you right there, but no, I don't care. 1108 00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:37,959 Speaker 1: Fight dude. 1109 00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,880 Speaker 3: Hey, UFC, we think January teen might be a day. 1110 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:42,800 Speaker 3: Is it gonna be cowboys? It gonna be just engaged. 1111 00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,040 Speaker 3: I don't know, it's gonna be freaking out, just announce it. 1112 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 3: Announce this crap because I was even putting it. Listen 1113 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:49,840 Speaker 3: to the show at this point and going, Connor, it'll be. 1114 00:44:49,920 --> 00:44:53,080 Speaker 3: But it's like if I'm Hobi, but I don't even 1115 00:44:53,080 --> 00:44:54,719 Speaker 3: talk about him. I don't even make an I know, 1116 00:44:54,719 --> 00:44:55,200 Speaker 3: what did he say? 1117 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,120 Speaker 1: He has to have ten wins before he or ten 1118 00:44:58,320 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 1: other fights before he gives him a rene. 1119 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,080 Speaker 3: I mean, especially with everything going on with Connor outside 1120 00:45:03,080 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 3: of the cage and the sexual assaw allegations and all 1121 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 3: that stuff and punching old guys, at this point, the 1122 00:45:08,560 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 3: smartest thing UFC can do is rush him back into 1123 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 3: a fight and let that. 1124 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:12,480 Speaker 1: Become the narrative. 1125 00:45:12,719 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 3: Let Connor go out there and blow somebody away or 1126 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,520 Speaker 3: win in any form, and then you'll get me banging 1127 00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:20,120 Speaker 3: that drum again, going, hey, should we make Abib Connor 1128 00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 3: to next fall after Ferguson if he wins that. But 1129 00:45:23,160 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 3: as things stand right now, especially with Tony Ferguson waiting 1130 00:45:26,080 --> 00:45:27,240 Speaker 3: in the midst can we give him. 1131 00:45:27,080 --> 00:45:27,720 Speaker 2: His fight already? 1132 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 3: Can we go for it for the fifth time? Can 1133 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,359 Speaker 3: we give that man the title shot he deserves? Can 1134 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 3: we not follow him around with a TV cord pulling 1135 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 3: on his leg? Ready to swipe it out from under 1136 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,919 Speaker 3: his legs. I mean, come on, make that damn fight 1137 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 3: and get off my timeline. 1138 00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:42,759 Speaker 1: Connor last, but not least in the Connor versus Habib thing. 1139 00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 1: Oh it's not so much Connor, but at least on 1140 00:45:44,200 --> 00:45:46,759 Speaker 1: the Habib side, he said, interestingly. And I think a 1141 00:45:46,880 --> 00:45:48,719 Speaker 1: Q and A he had done with the fans that 1142 00:45:49,600 --> 00:45:53,440 Speaker 1: he wants an apology from the Nevada Athletic Commission, and 1143 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 1: he is much more interested in fighting in New York. 1144 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:57,040 Speaker 1: Now you can understand the latter in a couple of 1145 00:45:57,080 --> 00:46:01,239 Speaker 1: different ways. It's a big venue, it's excited. There is 1146 00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,680 Speaker 1: a huge Russian population native to the New York area, 1147 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,520 Speaker 1: certainly native at this point anyway. And remember there's a 1148 00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:09,239 Speaker 1: press conference that they held for him at Brighton Beach 1149 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:13,040 Speaker 1: and it was just a scene. Okay, So I get that. However, 1150 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: there are also complications fighting in New York. The Commission 1151 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:18,120 Speaker 1: is a little wonky. They make weird decisions. If a 1152 00:46:18,160 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 1: fight goes to a decision, one never knows the competency 1153 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 1: of their judging, or their medical supervision, or a number 1154 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:25,360 Speaker 1: of other concerns. As it relates to the way in 1155 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:27,640 Speaker 1: punishments that kind of thing. It's kind of weird, right, 1156 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,400 Speaker 1: Like for a commission that he's mad at that punished 1157 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,360 Speaker 1: him for you know, rightly, you could assume that they 1158 00:46:33,400 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 1: would want to take some action from what he did. 1159 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:38,040 Speaker 1: It's like New York is like relatively actually, I would 1160 00:46:38,160 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: argue more punitive than Nevada. They haven't punished hbe for 1161 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: anything yet. But if you're worried about a commission that might, boy, 1162 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 1: they're at or near the top of the list for 1163 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 1: capricious and sort of odd things. 1164 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:51,720 Speaker 3: Ask you the centain of the answer. Is Connor McGregor 1165 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 3: allowed to fight in the state of New York right now? 1166 00:46:54,560 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he has a license. I think you 1167 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:57,759 Speaker 1: have to apply for one. But I believe he has 1168 00:46:57,880 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: served all of the in terms of any kind of 1169 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:03,000 Speaker 1: law enforcement issue that would prevent him. I don't believe 1170 00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,720 Speaker 1: that is the case. But by the way, commission always 1171 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 1: has a discretion. Now they would because. 1172 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,920 Speaker 3: If he was taking a sort of moral stand against 1173 00:47:10,000 --> 00:47:11,839 Speaker 3: Nevada for what happened at two twenty nine. But yet 1174 00:47:11,840 --> 00:47:12,839 Speaker 3: it's like, well, I want to go back to New 1175 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,279 Speaker 3: York where Connor attacked me with in the damn buss 1176 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:17,440 Speaker 3: and really nothing happened to him outside of I know Dane, 1177 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 3: it's going to say he paid millions, he paid for 1178 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,400 Speaker 3: that move, but nothing really happened to him in a 1179 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 3: fighting sense, right, he got rewarded with the biggest fight, right. 1180 00:47:25,040 --> 00:47:27,000 Speaker 1: But I think the idea is, certainly that's a great point. 1181 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:28,359 Speaker 1: But I think the idea is, at least if I'm 1182 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,439 Speaker 1: trying to read Nrigamdov's mind, such as one can, it's 1183 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 1: that he feels he was done wrong or humiliated or 1184 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:36,879 Speaker 1: had his integrity attacked in some kind of a way. 1185 00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:40,040 Speaker 1: Like he believes what he did at UFC two twenty 1186 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 1: nine was absolutely ethically justified in every way. I think 1187 00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,600 Speaker 1: he knows he got a little bit fouled with the rules, 1188 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 1: but he sees those rules as an impediment to an 1189 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 1: ethical lifestyle that you know, again, he sees for himself, 1190 00:47:52,040 --> 00:47:56,040 Speaker 1: and so in the course of the Commission's actions, he 1191 00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 1: just cannot find it seems anyway. 1192 00:47:58,680 --> 00:48:02,520 Speaker 3: Hey, habib B, don't trust any anybody, right, I mean, 1193 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,480 Speaker 3: Industry rule number four thousand and eighty. 1194 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:07,280 Speaker 2: Most athletic commissions are shady. 1195 00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 1: I mean, come on, uh, yeah, I had Jay in 1196 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:13,120 Speaker 1: my ear, so I'm glad I missed your little nursery rhyme. Wow. 1197 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,480 Speaker 1: In any event, With that being said, we have gone 1198 00:48:15,520 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 1: through our five topics. It is time now for your questions, 1199 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 1: ladies and gents. It is time now for dms from donks. 1200 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 1: All right, let's get started. So this goes to us 1201 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:31,279 Speaker 1: from Zach Zaide gets faded. This is some did who 1202 00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:34,360 Speaker 1: either gets drunk or high chill or knocked out, often 1203 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:37,760 Speaker 1: chilling in the cut. With the recent with the recent 1204 00:48:37,880 --> 00:48:40,399 Speaker 1: losses of the Jeremy Stevens and Calvin Cators of the world, 1205 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:42,440 Speaker 1: it seems like three round fights don't give you all 1206 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,640 Speaker 1: you can get out of UFC fighters or out of 1207 00:48:44,719 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 1: the fighters. Kidding, I really claim Brian Campbell to be 1208 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 1: the better fighter. If one more minute was added to 1209 00:48:50,320 --> 00:48:52,880 Speaker 1: that clock, they would lose. Should all UFC fights be 1210 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:54,240 Speaker 1: made five rounds? 1211 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 3: All UFC fights should not be made five rounds now, 1212 00:48:57,719 --> 00:48:59,879 Speaker 3: the idea of putting non title fights at five rounds 1213 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:00,640 Speaker 3: made events? 1214 00:49:01,360 --> 00:49:01,960 Speaker 1: Was it really all? 1215 00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:02,839 Speaker 2: What was that fight? 1216 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:03,920 Speaker 1: I believe it was in Calgary. 1217 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 3: It was a light heavyweight about. It was like a 1218 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 3: non title light heavyweight about. I think it might have 1219 00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 3: been like Rampage and macheater. Somebody on that level, remember, 1220 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,399 Speaker 3: was really boring and nothing really happened, and that sort 1221 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:13,960 Speaker 3: of seemed to be the tipping point of people going, 1222 00:49:14,080 --> 00:49:15,960 Speaker 3: why do we not have five round main events? My 1223 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,239 Speaker 3: problem with five round non title main events have been 1224 00:49:18,760 --> 00:49:20,040 Speaker 3: a lot of times they just throw it out to 1225 00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:23,239 Speaker 3: whoever's next in line to headline UFC Albany, and it's like. 1226 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,600 Speaker 1: Certain fighters aren't to me, fighting at the. 1227 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 3: Five round level, which was always a kin to being 1228 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,279 Speaker 3: on the championship level, sort of means something. It's sort 1229 00:49:32,320 --> 00:49:34,520 Speaker 3: of like you need to accomplish a certain point to 1230 00:49:34,560 --> 00:49:36,239 Speaker 3: get to a level where you can then be fighting 1231 00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:38,480 Speaker 3: on that five round level. So I never like to 1232 00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:41,279 Speaker 3: begin with when just to sort of fill out a 1233 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:42,880 Speaker 3: main event we just sort of bump people up to 1234 00:49:42,920 --> 00:49:44,040 Speaker 3: the five round level with nothing. 1235 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:45,600 Speaker 2: Do you think that's I mean, where do you stand 1236 00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 2: on that? 1237 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 1: I have a sort of a different view on this. 1238 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 1: Chill Son and has really affected my thinking on it. 1239 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:50,920 Speaker 1: He has introduced the idea that if you really look 1240 00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: at the damage that fighter can take in a three 1241 00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,480 Speaker 1: versus a five, and again they're all always going to 1242 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 1: be exceptions, but that the amount of damage they take 1243 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:00,680 Speaker 1: in the five round fight is truly career aing in many, 1244 00:50:00,719 --> 00:50:02,520 Speaker 1: many occasions, especially at the highest level. 1245 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:04,719 Speaker 2: You know, that's why I like reserving it for only 1246 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:06,040 Speaker 2: total fights my point, and. 1247 00:50:06,040 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 1: Also like this is why these guys need to be paid, 1248 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 1: you know. So the idea of making it a five 1249 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 1: round fight for all UFC fights, number one is not 1250 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,840 Speaker 1: tenable for a broadcast position, and number two would do 1251 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 1: untold damage to these guys. Also, there's something weird, like 1252 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 1: I know Joe Regan has gone on these things like, oh, 1253 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,680 Speaker 1: they should fight in a basketball of corps where it's 1254 00:50:22,760 --> 00:50:26,520 Speaker 1: like there's no walls and whatnot. Look, any fighting scenario, 1255 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: whether it is the street, the street with weapons, the 1256 00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,320 Speaker 1: street and you're blinded, the street at night, the street 1257 00:50:31,400 --> 00:50:33,440 Speaker 1: during day, in a boxing ring with gloves, and a 1258 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:35,239 Speaker 1: boxing ring with four ounce gloves and a four ounce 1259 00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:39,120 Speaker 1: gloves in a cage. Every scenario is just manufactured. There's 1260 00:50:39,120 --> 00:50:43,360 Speaker 1: no such thing as a real fight. Everything has certain rules, 1261 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 1: everything has certain boundaries. And yes, I do think for 1262 00:50:46,600 --> 00:50:49,360 Speaker 1: some championship fights when they're gonna be five rounds, like 1263 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,239 Speaker 1: every championship fight is going to be five rounds, and 1264 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,520 Speaker 1: you have somebody who's sniffing that territory, like as a 1265 00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 1: beating in Mecca Mincheripov. It'd be nice to see them 1266 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 1: in those five round fights. I get that, But people 1267 00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:00,520 Speaker 1: and them may have this weird obsession with one's real 1268 00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,759 Speaker 1: and one's not real. This is the authentic way, this 1269 00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 1: is the inauthentic way. They're all inauthentic in their own 1270 00:51:05,640 --> 00:51:08,040 Speaker 1: way and then authentic in other ways. The point being 1271 00:51:08,120 --> 00:51:10,480 Speaker 1: is just work with the terms you have, fight according 1272 00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 1: to those rules, and let the best man win. 1273 00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:14,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, And the spirit of the question is saying, could 1274 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 3: you have an argument if you fought in a three 1275 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 3: round fight and seem to be coming on, well, not 1276 00:51:17,280 --> 00:51:18,719 Speaker 3: if it was a three round fight, not if you 1277 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:19,560 Speaker 3: signed up for And. 1278 00:51:19,560 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 1: Also, three round fights will change a strategy, it'll change 1279 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:24,320 Speaker 1: how you prepare. It doesn't necessarily mean that if it 1280 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:25,879 Speaker 1: goes five round the other person can't win. 1281 00:51:26,160 --> 00:51:27,719 Speaker 3: No, but I think you're right on the idea of like, 1282 00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:30,480 Speaker 3: when we see something really bad finally happen in the 1283 00:51:30,560 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 3: UFC healthwise, to somebody, it's probably gonna come back. 1284 00:51:33,239 --> 00:51:35,480 Speaker 1: Could you really make the argument that Carlos condit was 1285 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:37,719 Speaker 1: the same after the Robbie Lawler fight. I just don't 1286 00:51:37,719 --> 00:51:40,320 Speaker 1: think you can make that argument. So no, I'm not 1287 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 1: a fan of doing five rounds all the time like that. 1288 00:51:42,480 --> 00:51:44,240 Speaker 1: All right, and this comes to us from John Riggins, 1289 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 1: the famous quarterback not really running back. He said, John Riggins, 1290 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:50,400 Speaker 1: what did I say? Quarterback? All right? 1291 00:51:50,440 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 2: Well, time you're thinking of Joan's legs starting? 1292 00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what I think? Yesterday was the celebration 1293 00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: of Mark Rippians six touchdowns against the Atlanta Falcons. 1294 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,280 Speaker 2: I remember that game ninety one Conference playoffs? 1295 00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:05,319 Speaker 1: What trilogy are you most intrigued by? Connor? Who put 1296 00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:08,560 Speaker 1: this question together? Connor? Nate or cas? I look Upaul Derek? 1297 00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:09,439 Speaker 1: Did you pull this question? 1298 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:12,799 Speaker 2: Are you looking for skulls right now? 1299 00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:15,120 Speaker 1: Looking? I mean, how are you gonna go? 1300 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:16,840 Speaker 2: You're gonna go after young. 1301 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:17,680 Speaker 1: Jacob here again? Or what? 1302 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 3: Oh? 1303 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:22,120 Speaker 1: Apparently I won't say his last name. Apparently it was 1304 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:28,640 Speaker 1: Matt who did it? Yes? All right, yeah, way to go. 1305 00:52:30,120 --> 00:52:31,640 Speaker 1: Why would you put this question? I mean, I don't 1306 00:52:31,640 --> 00:52:33,920 Speaker 1: know how to answer this without getting angry at the questioner. 1307 00:52:35,120 --> 00:52:35,680 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? 1308 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 3: Why once you take your shot at Riggins thirty two? 1309 00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:37,879 Speaker 1: There? 1310 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, Connor Nate is the answer? 1311 00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:40,440 Speaker 1: Thank you? 1312 00:52:41,800 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 3: Why don't we use this time to actually get an 1313 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,920 Speaker 3: educated answer, Luke, that fight will happen Connor Nate three 1314 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:48,879 Speaker 3: before they both retire and die. 1315 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 2: But what would be the best scenario for you as 1316 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 2: a fan? Under what terms? 1317 00:52:52,600 --> 00:52:52,960 Speaker 1: Don't care? 1318 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:54,320 Speaker 3: No? 1319 00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:55,800 Speaker 2: No, does it motivate you? 1320 00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:58,640 Speaker 3: Have we gone too long? When the idea of what 1321 00:52:58,760 --> 00:53:00,840 Speaker 3: made this rivalry great was the beef between them? Have 1322 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 3: we gone too long? 1323 00:53:01,840 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: No? It's easily sellable. It's a fine fight. I I 1324 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:09,880 Speaker 1: don't have Like a lot of times people ask me like, 1325 00:53:09,920 --> 00:53:11,400 Speaker 1: oh what I had? Someone ask me about what's your 1326 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:14,439 Speaker 1: dream UFC card? I don't really feel I don't think 1327 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,839 Speaker 1: of the sport in those terms. There are individual fights 1328 00:53:16,840 --> 00:53:18,040 Speaker 1: I would want to see for right now, the one 1329 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 1: I do think about is Habi versus Tony. Right for me, 1330 00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:23,120 Speaker 1: that's really important to see. But I don't get around 1331 00:53:23,360 --> 00:53:25,839 Speaker 1: like super steamed up about the idea like what would 1332 00:53:25,840 --> 00:53:28,160 Speaker 1: be an ideal circumstance for Connor Nate to fight again? 1333 00:53:28,719 --> 00:53:32,279 Speaker 1: That fight doesn't for me personally the fight itself. While 1334 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: I recognize the greater sporting impact, it doesn't move me 1335 00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: in that way. So I don't really have any strong 1336 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 1: thoughts about it. 1337 00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 3: Right if ks I look and Paul three happened, But 1338 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 3: they decided to bring it to the Bellotor Cage. 1339 00:53:40,680 --> 00:53:43,839 Speaker 1: Would you avoid it at all costs, at all costs, yes, 1340 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,759 Speaker 1: and also make it with knives. Also bring back the 1341 00:53:48,880 --> 00:53:52,120 Speaker 1: knockout game for Jake Paul. All right, Next, I don't 1342 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 1: even know how to say this one, Jack Thompson, you 1343 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 1: can't just spell like a normal person. 1344 00:53:58,440 --> 00:53:59,880 Speaker 2: He may have things going on at home, you know, 1345 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,839 Speaker 2: you know, you never know these guys. These guys will 1346 00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 2: come looking for you if you cross them. 1347 00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,720 Speaker 1: I guess, all right, do you think when Colby Covington 1348 00:54:06,800 --> 00:54:13,240 Speaker 1: beats Usman and Dot providing, Tyron Woodley beats Leon Scott, 1349 00:54:13,440 --> 00:54:16,400 Speaker 1: will they do Woodley versus Colby or go straight from Masvidal? 1350 00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:16,799 Speaker 1: What do you think? 1351 00:54:17,560 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 3: So if Colby wins the title, No, they will not 1352 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:23,080 Speaker 3: do Woodley versus Colby, They'll do Mosviedal Mosvidal is h Yeah, 1353 00:54:23,080 --> 00:54:23,560 Speaker 3: they'll go straight. 1354 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:25,000 Speaker 1: I'm not so sure. I was speaking to some people 1355 00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,160 Speaker 1: close to Masvidal. They don't seem to hype on that fight. 1356 00:54:27,840 --> 00:54:30,560 Speaker 3: So Mozvedoal's team doesn't want the Colby Fighter's what you're saying, 1357 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:34,040 Speaker 3: because I don't is that due to my read on them, 1358 00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:37,239 Speaker 3: was that is not their first priority, So. 1359 00:54:37,360 --> 00:54:40,840 Speaker 1: The title wouldn't be Whoregey Mazvedal's first priority. Okay, so 1360 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:42,440 Speaker 1: this is the contradiction all of it. And this is 1361 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,480 Speaker 1: what I said to them. I'm like, hasn't he explicitly 1362 00:54:44,560 --> 00:54:47,800 Speaker 1: said fighting for not just a belt but the divisional 1363 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:49,880 Speaker 1: belt was like a real long term goal of his, 1364 00:54:50,040 --> 00:54:52,279 Speaker 1: Like he's been into my mind pretty clear about that. 1365 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:55,000 Speaker 1: And they were like, yeah, but they right now, what 1366 00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:57,359 Speaker 1: they're thinking is is what they told me. Right now, 1367 00:54:57,400 --> 00:54:58,960 Speaker 1: what they're thinking about is who can give them the 1368 00:54:59,000 --> 00:54:59,399 Speaker 1: most money. 1369 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,279 Speaker 3: If you're in the UFC and Colby Covington should win 1370 00:55:03,360 --> 00:55:06,600 Speaker 3: the Welzroy Championship, what's the biggest fight they can make 1371 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,359 Speaker 3: to take advantage of his ability to be a heel. 1372 00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 1: The Woodly fight would be a big one, but the 1373 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 1: Hojogey one is the biggest one. The Horney one is 1374 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 1: the biggest one. This is what this is for me. 1375 00:55:17,040 --> 00:55:19,279 Speaker 1: Why I like them saying that. Maybe they're just telling 1376 00:55:19,360 --> 00:55:20,960 Speaker 1: media that, so I'll say that, and it just, you know, 1377 00:55:21,000 --> 00:55:23,920 Speaker 1: puts out a negotiating perspective. One never really knows. But 1378 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:30,040 Speaker 1: it's like, dude, if Colby wins the gravitational pull to 1379 00:55:30,120 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 1: get the BMF holder. Even if it was Nate to 1380 00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:35,359 Speaker 1: fight the winner would be huge. Add in the fact 1381 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:39,360 Speaker 1: that it's Jorge masvidoal who has a personal, a real 1382 00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 1: nobs personal, failed relationship with the other belttholder, and that 1383 00:55:44,719 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 1: there's acrimony there that is eminently mineable. Man, dude with 1384 00:55:49,440 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 1: a story to tell. 1385 00:55:50,320 --> 00:55:52,000 Speaker 2: I mean, this is just up the dollars, and they 1386 00:55:52,040 --> 00:55:52,400 Speaker 2: would make it. 1387 00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:54,520 Speaker 1: I just don't know how you don't make that fight, 1388 00:55:54,600 --> 00:55:56,239 Speaker 1: To be quite honest with you, we make it now. 1389 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:57,640 Speaker 1: If Oosman wins. 1390 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:58,840 Speaker 2: That's where you have a dilemma. 1391 00:55:58,880 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 1: That's where it gets a little dice. 1392 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,160 Speaker 3: Do you want to send Jorge Moswell's brand into that 1393 00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:03,839 Speaker 3: deep water of that rest so bad fight. 1394 00:56:03,800 --> 00:56:05,439 Speaker 1: For Hora If you ask me, it's not that Jorge 1395 00:56:05,600 --> 00:56:08,480 Speaker 1: can't win. He can beat anyone in that division. But 1396 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:10,560 Speaker 1: it's just like historically, the guys that have given him trouble, 1397 00:56:10,640 --> 00:56:12,640 Speaker 1: the ones who can spam him, would take down attempts. 1398 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 1: It's exactly what what if you got Nate Diaz a win. 1399 00:56:16,600 --> 00:56:19,320 Speaker 3: Is he suddenly instantly a welterweight title contender where you 1400 00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:20,800 Speaker 3: could put him in there against a Nusman. 1401 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:26,200 Speaker 1: He just gotta win. Oh, Nate dz why would you 1402 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 1: want to make that fight. That's a terrible fight for Nate. 1403 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,400 Speaker 1: That's a terrible fight for Nate. Really, the reality is 1404 00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:33,760 Speaker 1: due Nate's not a welterweight. He can fight at welterweight. 1405 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:35,080 Speaker 1: But didn't you feel like, because I wasn't on the 1406 00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:37,800 Speaker 1: show for the Monday afterwards, didn't you feel like watching 1407 00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:39,480 Speaker 1: that two forty four manin event it was like, one 1408 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,399 Speaker 1: of these guys is a real welterweight I can fight. 1409 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 2: I actually didn't think the weight was the issue. 1410 00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:45,960 Speaker 1: I thought it was not the weight. You don't think 1411 00:56:46,000 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 1: Jorge had much greater punching power, No, I mean I 1412 00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:50,800 Speaker 1: agree with you on that. 1413 00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:52,840 Speaker 3: I think it was more of Jorge's evolvement that I 1414 00:56:52,960 --> 00:56:54,160 Speaker 3: saw was the difference in that fight. 1415 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:57,080 Speaker 1: Tell me how you think he's evolved. I don't buy 1416 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:58,840 Speaker 1: this whole argument, but tell me how you think he's evolved. 1417 00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:02,240 Speaker 3: It's the combination of refining his physical skills, but mostly 1418 00:57:02,400 --> 00:57:04,720 Speaker 3: just straight up believing in himself, getting to the elite 1419 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:06,840 Speaker 3: level of cardio where he's not afraid of fading, and 1420 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 3: just getting to a sort of effet point. 1421 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:13,400 Speaker 1: Not ef he's never had bad cardio, dude, What he's talked. 1422 00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:15,479 Speaker 3: About and admitted the whole idea of maybe the fear 1423 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:18,000 Speaker 3: of it, the fear of it and how that affects him. 1424 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:19,840 Speaker 3: But it's you know, and it's not effort from the 1425 00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 3: idea of like nothing matters, but effort from the idea 1426 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,960 Speaker 3: of like, I'm going to find out how great I 1427 00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 3: can be, and none, none of the other crap is 1428 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 3: going to slow me down. 1429 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,240 Speaker 1: I just know these are all just platitudes that writers 1430 00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:33,400 Speaker 1: say that don't mean anything. Dude, this is mental one 1431 00:57:33,440 --> 00:57:35,240 Speaker 1: hundred percent agree. Here's to me. The difference he has 1432 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:37,960 Speaker 1: clearly had a mindset change on that level. Agrory, he 1433 00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,760 Speaker 1: talked about going into the wilderness and having to hear 1434 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 1: your own thoughts. I've actually been doing a lot of 1435 00:57:41,560 --> 00:57:43,000 Speaker 1: reading this. I'm being done serious. I've done a lot 1436 00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:45,920 Speaker 1: of reading about the powers of different forms of meditation 1437 00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 1: or solitude and how they can Frankly, you're actually it 1438 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 1: terms out. Your mind needs that kind. 1439 00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 3: You could find a lot of peace from spending time alone. 1440 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:55,120 Speaker 1: I believe me, I get it. It's actually a real thing. 1441 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:58,080 Speaker 1: So I take that seriously. To me, the difference is 1442 00:57:58,080 --> 00:57:59,520 Speaker 1: if you go back and you watch the iaquint to 1443 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,360 Speaker 1: fight or once he's lost, like the lark in fight. 1444 00:58:01,800 --> 00:58:03,920 Speaker 1: A lot of times he wasn't fighting on his terms. 1445 00:58:03,920 --> 00:58:06,320 Speaker 1: He was just kind of answering the complexion of the 1446 00:58:06,400 --> 00:58:09,120 Speaker 1: fight set by the opponent. Now he's going out and 1447 00:58:09,200 --> 00:58:12,560 Speaker 1: he's putting his stamp on everything. Right, that's to me 1448 00:58:12,720 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: the shift. The shift is I'm going to defy define 1449 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:17,480 Speaker 1: the terms of these exchanges. That's fair, and that has 1450 00:58:17,520 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 1: made him instantly better. 1451 00:58:19,400 --> 00:58:21,280 Speaker 3: Still plays into what I said, though, right, I got notes. 1452 00:58:23,040 --> 00:58:26,080 Speaker 1: All right, this comes to us from So's tack to me, 1453 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 1: should people hit the bag with barre knuckles to condition 1454 00:58:29,600 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 1: them if at all possible, especially those interested in bare 1455 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:35,360 Speaker 1: knuckle boxing or self defense where obviously don't have raps 1456 00:58:35,400 --> 00:58:36,000 Speaker 1: and gloves. 1457 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:40,840 Speaker 3: A speaking of barre knuckle boxing, ain't it Artom Lobov 1458 00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:42,400 Speaker 3: Jason Knight too this weekend? 1459 00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:45,280 Speaker 1: That's not what he is asking. All right, you can 1460 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,600 Speaker 1: handle that all you want. So, actually, this is a 1461 00:58:47,640 --> 00:58:50,520 Speaker 1: better question for someone like Faraza hobby or what you 1462 00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,240 Speaker 1: call it. The only thing I've ever done to this effect, 1463 00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:56,160 Speaker 1: speaking of veterans day, So, I took part in the 1464 00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 1: Marine Corps Martial arts program, and they did a thing 1465 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:02,400 Speaker 1: there called body hardening you ever heard of that where 1466 00:59:02,440 --> 00:59:05,120 Speaker 1: they would spend time during the day, And I wonder 1467 00:59:05,200 --> 00:59:08,080 Speaker 1: with modern practices, like how important this is. I just 1468 00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:11,520 Speaker 1: do that during cinemax late night. No, no body hardening. 1469 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:16,720 Speaker 1: Not treat your body below the waist like an amusement park. So, 1470 00:59:16,840 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 1: for example, you ever seen these kids who fight tie boxing, 1471 00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,160 Speaker 1: they're like nine years old. Yeah, they'll take and they'll 1472 00:59:21,280 --> 00:59:24,280 Speaker 1: roll like glass along their shins. You ever seen that, 1473 00:59:24,560 --> 00:59:25,720 Speaker 1: And what they're trying to do is they're trying to 1474 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:28,680 Speaker 1: deaden the nerves inside all of their shins so when 1475 00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:32,280 Speaker 1: they throw, they can throw with impunity. Right. They would 1476 00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 1: do things like that in the Marine Corps where we 1477 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 1: would hit the bag bare knuckle and at first it 1478 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,160 Speaker 1: would tear your knuckles to pieces, and then over the 1479 00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:40,760 Speaker 1: course of a few weeks you did scab up equivalent 1480 00:59:40,760 --> 00:59:42,040 Speaker 1: of what they're doing to you mentally when you get 1481 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:43,600 Speaker 1: in their to And also you have to take you 1482 00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:45,520 Speaker 1: have to take a hundred leg kicks, not full ones. 1483 00:59:45,800 --> 00:59:47,520 Speaker 1: But they would want to deaden the inside of the 1484 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:50,680 Speaker 1: nerves here and then outside. There might be something to that, 1485 00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 1: but honestly, it feels like with modern practices, preserving the 1486 00:59:54,080 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 1: body is probably better they're probably there should be some 1487 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:01,040 Speaker 1: kind of you know, a callous or there is good 1488 01:00:01,240 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 1: Like for example, when I see people lift weights with 1489 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 1: gloves on, I automatically know you peece sitting down. There 1490 01:00:06,560 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 1: is just nothing. Wow, there's nothing that says I'm There's 1491 01:00:11,600 --> 01:00:14,000 Speaker 1: nothing that's like, how do you broadcast to the world 1492 01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:17,360 Speaker 1: like total cuckness. Put gloves on your hands when you 1493 01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 1: go to the weight room because you want the calllyss 1494 01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:22,440 Speaker 1: the callus and your natural grip is better for grabbing 1495 01:00:22,480 --> 01:00:24,560 Speaker 1: the bar. It's actually long term what you want to build. 1496 01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:26,360 Speaker 1: So it's twice then to be said for that. On 1497 01:00:26,480 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 1: the same time though, just ruining your hands. I mean, 1498 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,760 Speaker 1: they wear wraps for a reason as well, right, because 1499 01:00:31,760 --> 01:00:33,320 Speaker 1: you want to protect the integrity of the wrist, and 1500 01:00:33,400 --> 01:00:38,720 Speaker 1: then the bones here are very fragile. 1501 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,680 Speaker 2: Right, So you're both a weightlifter and an asshole. 1502 01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 3: So what do you make of the people at the 1503 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:45,479 Speaker 3: gym of the guy who's actually built but he wears 1504 01:00:45,560 --> 01:00:48,320 Speaker 3: the real tight ball shorts and he doesn't ask for 1505 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:51,000 Speaker 3: a spotter, but he screams at every lift. I mean, 1506 01:00:51,640 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 3: and it's a type of stream that's like look at 1507 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 3: my tight balls, Like what is going through that guys. 1508 01:00:56,440 --> 01:00:58,160 Speaker 1: Well, first of all, I don't get lured in like 1509 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 1: you like some kind of cobra who just gets it's 1510 01:01:00,280 --> 01:01:03,160 Speaker 1: enamored with it. Number One, I go about my business. Uh. 1511 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:05,400 Speaker 1: Number two, this is a rule for life, because if 1512 01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:08,320 Speaker 1: you ride enough subways in metros like I do, you 1513 01:01:08,400 --> 01:01:10,920 Speaker 1: know you see the people open up the door. Hey everybody, 1514 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:16,000 Speaker 1: Hey everybody, I've Mary Christmas I need and I'm not 1515 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:18,040 Speaker 1: going to homeless.

And 1517 01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:21,520 Speaker 1: sometimes I give them my sometimes I don't. But the 1518 01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 1: point being is to like to tell the world leave 1519 01:01:24,520 --> 01:01:27,080 Speaker 1: me alone and I'm gonna focus on my business. Over 1520 01:01:27,160 --> 01:01:30,640 Speaker 1: the ear noise canceling headphones. It's the only way to fly. 1521 01:01:30,960 --> 01:01:31,520 Speaker 1: I got a boat. 1522 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:33,240 Speaker 2: Somebody could be yelling for you to help them. 1523 01:01:33,280 --> 01:01:34,440 Speaker 1: They could be pinned down on their neck. 1524 01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:36,400 Speaker 3: They need a spot, and you're just like, f off, 1525 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:37,880 Speaker 3: I gotta listen to this death metal hair. 1526 01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,360 Speaker 1: You huh, dude, it's not even about that. I because 1527 01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,080 Speaker 1: if you just put regular headphones on that are not 1528 01:01:42,200 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: noise canceling, which I've been using for years, you can 1529 01:01:44,760 --> 01:01:46,520 Speaker 1: still get distracted. You kind of got to turn your 1530 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 1: music up, it's not as great. Get the noise example 1531 01:01:49,080 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 1: of how you deal with life.

Because 1839 01:12:50,640 --> 01:12:53,160 Speaker 3: this was one of those just inspirational type of performances. 1840 01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:55,880 Speaker 3: And in the end, a New Way is still that dude, 1841 01:12:56,080 --> 01:12:58,479 Speaker 3: because you want to see a pomper pound rank guy 1842 01:12:58,479 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 3: who's been blowing people away be forced to show you 1843 01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:03,120 Speaker 3: how great he can be. Once he realized that his 1844 01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:06,280 Speaker 3: power wasn't gonna move Donair, who had fought two divisions 1845 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:08,240 Speaker 3: north in recent years a featherweight and sort of had 1846 01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:10,680 Speaker 3: the size advantage, we got to see what a New 1847 01:13:10,760 --> 01:13:12,599 Speaker 3: A has really made up from the standpoint of speed 1848 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:13,439 Speaker 3: boxing IQ. 1849 01:13:14,439 --> 01:13:16,200 Speaker 2: He raised his profile. 1850 01:13:16,240 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 3: In the end, the WBSS, which has been giving us gold, 1851 01:13:18,840 --> 01:13:21,679 Speaker 3: kind of produced another memorable moment. And if you didn't 1852 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,600 Speaker 3: see that fight, check out his own and watch it 1853 01:13:23,680 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 3: because I got the feels I was really moved by it. 1854 01:13:26,080 --> 01:13:27,720 Speaker 1: And I love the Ali Trophy. I think it looks 1855 01:13:27,720 --> 01:13:29,439 Speaker 1: really cool and there's a little story about that at 1856 01:13:29,479 --> 01:13:32,040 Speaker 1: the end there too. Donair had promised his kids that 1857 01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:33,640 Speaker 1: he would show them he would bring them home the 1858 01:13:33,680 --> 01:13:35,760 Speaker 1: Ali Trophy, but he didn't win, so he wasn't given 1859 01:13:35,800 --> 01:13:37,559 Speaker 1: it to him. So he asked in a way if 1860 01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,240 Speaker 1: he could borrow it to show his kids in a 1861 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,640 Speaker 1: way allowed him for one night, for one night, so 1862 01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:43,680 Speaker 1: he could show it to his kids as not as 1863 01:13:43,720 --> 01:13:45,679 Speaker 1: something that dad had brought home, but as a matter 1864 01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:47,680 Speaker 1: of what it means to persevere and also what an 1865 01:13:47,720 --> 01:13:51,000 Speaker 1: incredible sign of sportsmanship. So, you know, while Dezone did 1866 01:13:51,080 --> 01:13:53,400 Speaker 1: show Logan paul Ksi and that got the most headlines, 1867 01:13:53,560 --> 01:13:55,920 Speaker 1: they also showed the best boxing fight maybe of the year. 1868 01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:57,920 Speaker 2: Just at like seven thirty in the morning too. 1869 01:13:58,040 --> 01:14:00,760 Speaker 1: It was it was great, you're a real boxing fan, 1870 01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:01,400 Speaker 1: you'll find the gym. 1871 01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:03,320 Speaker 2: By the way, we thought anew he might walk through him, 1872 01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:04,040 Speaker 2: like in one round. 1873 01:14:04,120 --> 01:14:06,000 Speaker 1: I thought to be honest when I when they announced 1874 01:14:06,000 --> 01:14:07,360 Speaker 1: the fight, and I know it was a bit of 1875 01:14:07,400 --> 01:14:09,080 Speaker 1: a tournament, but I was like, I thought Darnaire was 1876 01:14:09,160 --> 01:14:10,720 Speaker 1: kind of kind of washed, to be honest, with you. 1877 01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:12,680 Speaker 1: I thought anyway, I thought it was gonna blow him away. 1878 01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 1: He didn't any by the way, a new way. 1879 01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:16,320 Speaker 2: I'm sorry dun Air to get to the finals of 1880 01:14:16,320 --> 01:14:16,799 Speaker 2: that tournament. 1881 01:14:17,000 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 3: Like his first opponent got injured, second appoint it got hurt, 1882 01:14:19,439 --> 01:14:21,200 Speaker 3: like it was just sort of this like almost luck. 1883 01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:24,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then and then in a way, it was 1884 01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:27,559 Speaker 1: just blowing through all the real challengers. So incredible, incredible 1885 01:14:27,560 --> 01:14:29,800 Speaker 1: moment for the sport of boxing. There, last, but not least, 1886 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:32,439 Speaker 1: I'll go with Sage north Cut getting out there and 1887 01:14:32,479 --> 01:14:36,040 Speaker 1: admitting since having his face broken against Cosmo Ala Chandre 1888 01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 1: and that terrible fight he had back in May for 1889 01:14:38,960 --> 01:14:41,559 Speaker 1: his I think was his one debut, which required an 1890 01:14:41,600 --> 01:14:44,160 Speaker 1: eight or nine hour surgery to repair everything, the feeling 1891 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:46,679 Speaker 1: is still coming back into his face. He's not trained 1892 01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:48,800 Speaker 1: since then. He's apparently hit the the maybe hit the 1893 01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:51,120 Speaker 1: mits a little bit. He's really been lifting the weights, 1894 01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:53,280 Speaker 1: stood at the abs if you still got the abs, 1895 01:14:53,280 --> 01:14:54,960 Speaker 1: but that is it. He has not been able to train. 1896 01:14:55,320 --> 01:14:56,840 Speaker 1: You know, this is amazing. He's gonna go back to 1897 01:14:56,880 --> 01:14:58,920 Speaker 1: one fifty five where he said he's undefeated, rather than 1898 01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:00,640 Speaker 1: fighting a one to seventy which ended up being one 1899 01:15:00,760 --> 01:15:03,040 Speaker 1: eighty five. Now, alas Chandre has always always been about 1900 01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 1: a one to seventy ish fighter in his career as well. 1901 01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:07,400 Speaker 1: But the point being is, like we solved weight cutting. Well, 1902 01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:10,760 Speaker 1: whatever weight policy you had got him super hurt Number one, 1903 01:15:11,080 --> 01:15:13,599 Speaker 1: number two. I certainly hope that this is not the case, 1904 01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:16,320 Speaker 1: but you really wonder, like is he going to fight again, 1905 01:15:16,400 --> 01:15:19,160 Speaker 1: and if so, how much long term damage can he 1906 01:15:19,240 --> 01:15:22,880 Speaker 1: really take? Given how severe frankly all of this was. 1907 01:15:22,960 --> 01:15:26,760 Speaker 1: It was not effective matchmaking by one even a little bit. Now. 1908 01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:29,519 Speaker 1: Later on, Sage had bristled at the idea from Dana 1909 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:31,160 Speaker 1: White that he should retire. I don't know that that's 1910 01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:34,120 Speaker 1: right either. I don't know that that's wrong too. 1911 01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:36,840 Speaker 2: He got fed up, like his face was like nerve ending. 1912 01:15:37,160 --> 01:15:38,599 Speaker 1: I give all the credit in the world to Sage 1913 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:40,080 Speaker 1: for wanting to come back and say I want to 1914 01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:41,600 Speaker 1: I want to get you back on the horse and 1915 01:15:41,800 --> 01:15:43,519 Speaker 1: get back to my natural weight class. Fair enough did 1916 01:15:43,560 --> 01:15:46,559 Speaker 1: the guy's a warrior, But that was a really, really, 1917 01:15:46,760 --> 01:15:49,240 Speaker 1: really bad knockout. You have to be very careful with 1918 01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:50,880 Speaker 1: some of these prospects. In the end, I thought the 1919 01:15:50,960 --> 01:15:53,720 Speaker 1: UFC match made for him pretty well, you know, I 1920 01:15:53,840 --> 01:15:56,360 Speaker 1: guess one thought more was going to happen for him 1921 01:15:56,439 --> 01:16:00,360 Speaker 1: in that contest, but it didn't. So we wish the best. 1922 01:16:00,400 --> 01:16:02,040 Speaker 1: We hope everything works out, but that is a situation 1923 01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:04,120 Speaker 1: to monitor, to be quite Shout out. 1924 01:16:03,960 --> 01:16:05,760 Speaker 3: To King ol Lawall who got knocked out in his 1925 01:16:05,840 --> 01:16:08,479 Speaker 3: final fight for BELTI forgeting knocked out. 1926 01:16:08,520 --> 01:16:09,120 Speaker 1: A big fan of. 1927 01:16:09,120 --> 01:16:10,680 Speaker 3: Him as a fighter in person over the years, to 1928 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:12,080 Speaker 3: see him go out in his own terms, and then 1929 01:16:12,200 --> 01:16:15,160 Speaker 3: the next day signed with Major League Wrestling and a 1930 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:17,000 Speaker 3: peer and I really yeah and appear in a match 1931 01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:18,840 Speaker 3: for them.

He was the most exciting and 1938 01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 1: electrifying prospect that sort of light heavyweight early and then 1939 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:35,200 Speaker 1: middleweight for a time, and there was times where people 1940 01:16:35,200 --> 01:16:37,160 Speaker 1: thought like how Mo would do against John Jones and 1941 01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:39,840 Speaker 1: do the injuries just complete his He had an artificial hip. 1942 01:16:39,920 --> 01:16:41,880 Speaker 1: He has just been through the ring.

But he's like, when I beat Travis View, 1948 01:16:53,560 --> 01:16:55,800 Speaker 1: it was this passing of the torch, and now this 1949 01:16:55,880 --> 01:16:58,000 Speaker 1: guy gets it, like he sort of understood his place 1950 01:16:58,479 --> 01:17:01,360 Speaker 1: in the ecosystem of fighting, and so he's always been 1951 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,919 Speaker 1: smart about it.
