Speaker 3: This is Morning Combat, Monday, December eight, twenty and twenty five,

6
00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 3: fresh off the final pay per view of the ESPN

00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: UFC era, A changing of the guard atop the two

Speaker 3: lowest men's weight classes, and yet another draw Lamont Roach

9
00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:04,560

18
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:37,000

26
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,240

89
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:50,480
Speaker 4: nights for twenty years. Like more than that. Actually, I'm tired.

90
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 4: I'm tired. It's actually the thing is when I was

91
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 4: single and just sleep in, you know, get up when

92
00:04:55,839 --> 00:05:00,320

00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 4: seven am and she is ready to play. So it's

94
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 4: you know, I'm tired, Dude.

95
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 3: The dukes don't even need meldonium. She's just going at all.

96
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, no meldonium at seven am, and she is, you know,

97
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:14,920
Speaker 4: a bucking bronco. Yeah.

98
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I only slept a couple hours Saturday in early flight,

99
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 3: and you know, it's harder and harder to bounce back.

100
00:05:20,120 --> 00:05:23,679
Speaker 3: Not to complain about a fantastic life, but I slept

101
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 3: a lot of yesterday and this morning, and I'll probably

102
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 3: sleep again after this. Look, because we are old pieces

103
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 3: of shit. Yeah, people keep tuning in, so God bless them.

104
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 7: All.

105
00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 3: Right, let's do it, let's get fired up. Let's unwrap

106
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:40,200
Speaker 3: what went down this past Saturday night Las Vegas, UFC

107
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 3: three twenty three, and as we mentioned, ESPN plus Era

108
00:05:44,680 --> 00:05:48,040
Speaker 3: goodbye except for next week's fight night. We will welcome

109
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,720
Speaker 3: in the launch and start of the Paramount CBS era.

110
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 3: But in the main event on Saturday night, looking to

111
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 3: create history for himself was Banna Whit champion Morob de

112
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:03,440
Speaker 3: vallas Vili. Four trainee camps in one calendar year. Did

113
00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 3: it all catch up with him? We'll have Luke Thomas

114
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 3: here to break it down in the second. Either way,

115
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,560
Speaker 3: what a night for former champion pyotor Yan who came

116
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 3: out and stuff takedowns from Arob, switch dances out boxed

117
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,560
Speaker 3: him and really used that stiff jab to mark up

118
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 3: his face, becoming a two time champion and what turned

119
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 3: into a route of Morob four to one on most

120
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 3: scorecards except for Daniel Cormiers, who just could not believe

121
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 3: that anyone would score those early rounds against him. Luke,

122
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 3: just how special was this victory for pyotr Yan and

123
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 3: what made it ultimately such a noteworthy achievement Here years

124
00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,839
Speaker 3: removed from being decued against al Joe, came back from

125
00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: a three fight losing skid, built up a three fight

126
00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 3: win skid. But yet the performance we saw on Saturday

127
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 3: none of us predicted.

128
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 4: There was a stat by a friend to a colleague

129
00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 4: of mine ovin I don't know how to pronounced his

130
00:06:58,720 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 4: last name, and please forgive me.

131
00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 3: They call him osp yeah.

132
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:06,560
Speaker 4: No ovin vicinage. I might be saying it wrong. He

133
00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 4: is a great sort of member of the online MMA community.

134
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 4: He does some work I think for MMA point and

135
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:14,680
Speaker 4: he's done something. He's helped me a little bit as well.

136
00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 4: He found a crazy stat BC, and I think it

137
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 4: really speaks to just how brilliant and special Saturday Night was.

138
00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 4: I did not know this. One thing that we have

139
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,880
Speaker 4: talked about pretty consistently on the show BC is you know,

140
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 4: when someone has a UFC title then they lose it.

141
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,840
Speaker 4: For the most part, they never get it back. And

142
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 4: if they do get it back BC, it tends to

143
00:07:36,360 --> 00:07:39,800
Speaker 4: happen relatively quickly, sometimes with an immediate rematch or trilogy,

144
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 4: whatever the case may be, or they move a weight

145
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 4: class right within relatively short order, like you know, I

146
00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,520
Speaker 4: think of Poeton for example, doing something along those lines.

147
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 4: Those tend to be the scenarios. But the sort of

148
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,720
Speaker 4: maximum is that a you don't get it back and

149
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 4: then be you know, if you do, it has to

150
00:07:55,960 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 4: happen very very quickly. But there are very very very rare,

151
00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 4: rare cases in MMA where it can last years before

152
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:08,239
Speaker 4: someone reclaims it. Carlos Parz is actually holding the record,

153
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 4: but I think we can all agree that that's not

154
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 4: the kind of authoritative when to reclaim it that we

155
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,800
Speaker 4: got from Pyotr Jan. But it actually goes much further

156
00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 4: than that PC. I think Jan is third all time

157
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 4: in terms of distance between losing a title and then

158
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 4: regaining it. But but here is where he stands utterly alone.

159
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 4: He is the first fighter to have a UFC title,

160
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:36,240
Speaker 4: then go on a three fight losing streak, and then

161
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 4: reclaim the title that has literally never been done until

162
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 4: Saturday Night in any era, any gender, any weight class, period.

163
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 4: He's the only guy that holds that distinction. BC. You

164
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 4: asked about how special it was to be able to

165
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:58,200
Speaker 4: defy the virtual laws of MMA gravity in this way

166
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,640
Speaker 4: is by itself its own kind of achievement. But to

167
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 4: do that against a guy who was I know we're

168
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 4: gonna talk about how drained he was, but I'm sorry,

169
00:09:06,960 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 4: we don't need to undercut Yahn's win. I picked Morob

170
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,960
Speaker 4: to win. We all said we're gonna pick him until

171
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,680
Speaker 4: we have a reason not to. He is put together

172
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 4: the most impressive bansomweight career of any bandsom weight that's

173
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:21,040
Speaker 4: ever been there. To do it against a guy like

174
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: that with those circumstances, BC, and to do it with

175
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:29,760
Speaker 4: the kind of technical and strategic mastery that he put

176
00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 4: into it, it's just I'm serious. It's one of the

177
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,240
Speaker 4: all time best UFC title winning performances. I'm not saying

178
00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 4: it's number one, I haven't ranked it in that WAYBC,

179
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 4: but it's on the very very short list. This guy

180
00:09:44,160 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 4: proved tons of people wrong, me and others included, and

181
00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,520
Speaker 4: defied all the known laws of the MMA universe to

182
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,600
Speaker 4: accomplish that with the longest journey to get back to

183
00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,640
Speaker 4: that date, this is just magisterial, true.

184
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 3: And the and the losing skid that he didn't incur

185
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 3: was obviously against super elite competition on basically the title level,

186
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,320
Speaker 3: and there were some split decisions as we talked about

187
00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 3: coming into this week, But No, I didn't necessarily expect

188
00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 3: the command the increase in the striking. We knew head

189
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,200
Speaker 3: to head. If it was a five round boxing match,

190
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,400
Speaker 3: Jean would have an edge. But you're not gonna be

191
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 3: able to create that or kickboxing match unless you're able

192
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,840
Speaker 3: to stuff the takedowns, stuff the spamming, and then provide

193
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,680
Speaker 3: a takedown thread of his own, taking down Morob three times.

194
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 3: The mental journey that Yan went on, Uh, it's incredible,

195
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:39,040
Speaker 3: It's incredible.

196
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:39,240
Speaker 4: Bots.

197
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 3: I was actually oping his sons were gonna be allowed

198
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 3: in the cage. Do you remember when or when Yon

199
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 3: scored his third straight win on this comeback tour, his

200
00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:49,480
Speaker 3: son was in there and gave like a you know,

201
00:10:49,559 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 3: emphatic emotional you know, I love my dad, you know,

202
00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 3: kind of reversed mister Wideman there. But what a performance.

203
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 3: But but Luke, I now go through a lot of

204
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 3: things Morob said or did during fight week, and I

205
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 3: know that we did plant that seed Friday as we

206
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 3: should have with all the comments he made about the

207
00:11:11,280 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 3: way cut, I do have to ask you this question

208
00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:18,120
Speaker 3: before we get any further congratulations. Did Marob play himself

209
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,400
Speaker 3: like was the as much as we were identifying this

210
00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:25,320
Speaker 3: as such a daring to be great, capitalizing on your prime,

211
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 3: looking to make history, did he ultimately I don't know

212
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 3: if greed is the word, greedy is the word, but

213
00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,800
Speaker 3: like in hindsight, this was this a horrific decision? Or

214
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:38,360
Speaker 3: did he just straight up get beat in a second

215
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 3: chance by a fighter who was injured the first time,

216
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 3: healthy this time and upped his game along the way.

217
00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:46,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, remember, did you can make an argument

218
00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 4: that Yon won five to nothing? It's not crazy. I

219
00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,760
Speaker 4: did think that Morob won the first round. All three

220
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,719
Speaker 4: judges gave Morob the first round. One judge gave him

221
00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 4: the second round as well, and that's it. So he

222
00:11:58,200 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 4: basically won four to one, and you could have argued

223
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 4: it five to nothing. Could the fight have been closer

224
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 4: BC and maybe even gone the other way if this

225
00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 4: had happened under somewhat different circumstances. I think that that's

226
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 4: a fair thing to consider, and Morale will get an

227
00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,280
Speaker 4: opportunity to prove such a thing. Well, actually we don't

228
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 4: know how that will go, but probably we'll get a

229
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 4: way to prove that. Like there's no way. Listen, here's

230
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:27,400
Speaker 4: the reality, right. I have seen fighters who even in

231
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:29,319
Speaker 4: cases where they won Fighter of the Year two thousand

232
00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 4: and nine, Josialdo, twenty eleven, John Jones. They had four

233
00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 4: fights in a year Jose Aldo, though only one of

234
00:12:35,520 --> 00:12:37,880
Speaker 4: those was a title fight in two thousand and nine.

235
00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:42,000
Speaker 4: In twenty eleven, for John Jones, he went four to

236
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:45,400
Speaker 4: Zho and had four finishes, by the way, but three

237
00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:47,440
Speaker 4: of them were title fights. One was not the Ryan

238
00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:51,319
Speaker 4: Bader fight. Then you have twenty twenty where Devison Figuredo

239
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 4: does have four title fights, although he missed wait for

240
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 4: the first one so he was ineligible to win it,

241
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 4: but it still was a five round title fight, but

242
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:01,840
Speaker 4: he went three to zero to one. He had a

243
00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,880
Speaker 4: draw in his last one. To my knowledge, certainly in

244
00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: the modern era, no one has done this, not at

245
00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 4: the UFC level. Maybe in other organizations, but not in

246
00:13:10,080 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 4: It's just never been done. Is very, very difficult to

247
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,840
Speaker 4: do that kind of a thing. You can't ignore that, BC,

248
00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:18,480
Speaker 4: you can't. But we also just have to kind of

249
00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,560
Speaker 4: be honest. Like when you get a prediction right, cool,

250
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,280
Speaker 4: when you get it wrong, time to think about why.

251
00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 4: In this particular case, I don't think it was necessarily

252
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 4: wrong to maybe default to Yan the guy, or sorry,

253
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:32,800
Speaker 4: default to Morob the guy had beaten him before. He

254
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,080
Speaker 4: was on the run of all runs. You know that's

255
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,520
Speaker 4: I think that's pretty fair. At the same time, BC,

256
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 4: you know he's human too. We've just been coasting in

257
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:47,040
Speaker 4: this world where oh there are rules for everybody else

258
00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 4: and Morob just defies them. But we finally found a

259
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:53,280
Speaker 4: spot where the rules began to apply to him to

260
00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,959
Speaker 4: and he looked a lot more human as a consequence

261
00:13:56,160 --> 00:13:56,559
Speaker 4: he did.

262
00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that's the reason why, because ultimately

263
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 3: Yan stuff the takedowns Yon scoring I was wrong Long Island.

264
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,280
Speaker 3: Luke corrected me in real time, dead wrong me on.

265
00:14:04,200 --> 00:14:07,240
Speaker 4: A Monday five of nine.

266
00:14:07,160 --> 00:14:10,920
Speaker 3: So that all matters. The wrinkles in his boxing game matters,

267
00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 3: and I don't. I'm not going to piss on Morob

268
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 3: for ambition and trying to be great, but now in hindsight,

269
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 3: I do have to say, not just the four training

270
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:22,760
Speaker 3: camps in a year, in all that talk about the

271
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:24,840
Speaker 3: way cut and we played that video Friday of DC

272
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,400
Speaker 3: talking to Shaq on CBS Sports HQ and saying, Morob

273
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,640
Speaker 3: cuts it in an old school style that you know

274
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:33,160
Speaker 3: could leave him depleted. Again, I don't think that was

275
00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 3: the reason why he lost. They said on the broadcast

276
00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 3: he sparred five full rounds the morning of the fight,

277
00:14:38,680 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 3: like Morob has that Dennis Rodman level gas tank, where

278
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 3: after an NBA game, Rodman would go back on the

279
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 3: cardio vascular machines for another two hours just to get

280
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,240
Speaker 3: that out of his system. But when I look back,

281
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 3: specifically the interview I had with Morob, and it's weird.

282
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 3: They played a quote of it on UFC Embedded episode

283
00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 3: three last week, and I was kind of wondering why

284
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:01,640
Speaker 3: they played the quote because it was a quote that

285
00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 3: when Morob said it in real time, I sort of

286
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,720
Speaker 3: went like, wait, wait, like that doesn't sound like super

287
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 3: confident champion. And the quote was he said he said

288
00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 3: heading into the first Yon fight, which wasn't a title fight,

289
00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 3: he wanted to win so badly because of the personal

290
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,320
Speaker 3: trash talk back and forth between them, that in his

291
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 3: mind he was fighting to the death, he was fighting

292
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 3: for a title even though it wasn't one, and that

293
00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,160
Speaker 3: it was all personal and that's what fueled him. And

294
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 3: he goes, I don't know why, but in this rematch,

295
00:15:29,440 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 3: I don't feel the same emotions. He's like, I'm not

296
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 3: even nervous. I just feel like this is sport. And

297
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:40,359
Speaker 3: you know, so I'm now starting to wonder, if you know, Mariah,

298
00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:42,400
Speaker 3: was he being a little greedy trying to fit this

299
00:15:42,480 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 3: in to end the calendar year. I mean maybe, but

300
00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 3: that fire didn't seem to be the same. It didn't

301
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 3: seem to be on that same level. I don't know.

302
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,960
Speaker 3: Maybe it became a job this year to try to

303
00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,520
Speaker 3: get to that level of history and do this. And

304
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: I don't know what would happen if Morob had had

305
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 3: six months off, you know, full camp, everything healthy, what

306
00:15:59,520 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 3: have you. A lot of this was Pyotr Jan rising

307
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:05,280
Speaker 3: to the occasion, and that's what happens. And oh, by

308
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:06,720
Speaker 3: the way, let's give him Rob credit. I mean, he's

309
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 3: like a beating. He made that a crazy fun fight.

310
00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:14,120
Speaker 3: It was a very good title fight. But in hindsight,

311
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 3: I think there are a few different lanes where you

312
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,200
Speaker 3: can look at how Morob handled this whole thing and

313
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,480
Speaker 3: kind of picked that apart. And I'm not gonna do

314
00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 3: the Jed Michu and post the tweet and say, by

315
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 3: the way, Morob was never the go and you guys

316
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 3: all fell for it. But we did see a great

317
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:31,000
Speaker 3: fighter in a time we thought was the absolute apex

318
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 3: peak of his career, looking to double down on history

319
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,920
Speaker 3: over extend himself. I think we can say that firmly

320
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:38,560
Speaker 3: at the very.

321
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 4: Least, he chased greatness and sometimes you're gonna get it

322
00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,520
Speaker 4: and sometimes you're not. And this is the part of

323
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 4: the stretch that is the most difficult, and he came

324
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,120
Speaker 4: up short. I am perfectly. What is Jed's argue, Who

325
00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,120
Speaker 4: is the bantamway goat according to him?

326
00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 3: I don't know, but you remember on pregame preview, Jed

327
00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,640
Speaker 3: gave a long ran about Morob's just a you know,

328
00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,800
Speaker 3: decision machine, so you know, like not he's not the best.

329
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 3: His argument was Morob may have accumulated the type of

330
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 3: wins that could make you the bantam weight goat, but

331
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 3: because he's not a finisher, because he just sort of

332
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,639
Speaker 3: leans on that cardio in the wrestling that he's not

333
00:17:13,760 --> 00:17:15,960
Speaker 3: the actual best fighter in Banas.

334
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,160
Speaker 4: He's not. He's definitely not the best pure fighter. That's true,

335
00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,640
Speaker 4: Like he doesn't like he what is he the best?

336
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 4: That is he the best wrestler. He's a very good wrestler.

337
00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 4: He's maybe not the best. He's certainly not the best striker.

338
00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,960
Speaker 4: He's not the best submission guy. You know, there's guys

339
00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 4: who have more developed skills than him. But his level

340
00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 4: of accomplishment is I don't think really debatable. But getting

341
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:39,120
Speaker 4: back to the point, PC, the guy chased greatness and

342
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,480
Speaker 4: and I think for the most part, PC found it.

343
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,199
Speaker 4: For the most part, he did find greatness. He just

344
00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,920
Speaker 4: wanted to go to a level that had truly never

345
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:50,960
Speaker 4: been gone to before, not successfully, and that's a really

346
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:53,000
Speaker 4: difficult thing to do. I'm also going to say this PC,

347
00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,800
Speaker 4: this is not necessarily the case with Volt versus Lopez,

348
00:17:57,800 --> 00:18:00,399
Speaker 4: although I take Lopez as a dangerous threat. You know,

349
00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 4: he could still very much win that one given that

350
00:18:02,280 --> 00:18:06,199
Speaker 4: folks older and chinny now right. But in general, what

351
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:09,239
Speaker 4: I want to say was, this is why rematches are

352
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:14,520
Speaker 4: important for long title reigns, Like giving these fighters another crack,

353
00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 4: another world class guy another crack at you, particularly years later.

354
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,879
Speaker 4: I hope everyone can appreciate that's a daunting task. And

355
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,400
Speaker 4: you know, for a guy like Saint Pierre to fight

356
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,080
Speaker 4: Pen twice, cost Check twice, you know, he really went

357
00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,479
Speaker 4: out there and gave a lot of these you know,

358
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:34,280
Speaker 4: elite guys an opportunity to get like another run at him,

359
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 4: and he was still able to defeat basically all of them.

360
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 4: It's important in a guy's title reign that he get

361
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:45,280
Speaker 4: newcomers as well as other standouts who get to retool

362
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 4: and give it another go, because you just never know

363
00:18:48,359 --> 00:18:50,639
Speaker 4: what's going to happen in the sport. Rematches under the

364
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,480
Speaker 4: right circumstances are very important.

365
00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:54,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, just the final thing I want to say is

366
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 3: in my interview, it was kind of glazing Morab, like

367
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,920
Speaker 3: playing up the histories, making the fact that he's kind

368
00:18:59,920 --> 00:19:02,199
Speaker 3: of already been called the bandam weight goad. You know,

369
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 3: if he keeps up that streak of consecutive wins, he

370
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:06,199
Speaker 3: could break the record. And it was weird. He was

371
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 3: almost interrupting me to be like hold on, brother, Like

372
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 3: I'm just human, you know what I mean. I just

373
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,200
Speaker 3: work hard, you know. So I don't know that was

374
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,800
Speaker 3: I just got these weird feelings during the interview. But

375
00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,800
Speaker 3: shout out to Jan the way he pulled it out.

376
00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 3: Let's hear from pyotr Yan on a just a beautiful

377
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: comeback victory to ascend the throne of one of the

378
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 3: sports best divisions.

379
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:37,920
Speaker 8: Yeah, the media watching shoe box mi Boroza.

380
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 9: Yahbal you know, not exactly, but it was more of

381
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,800
Speaker 9: like I I streamedlined myself to the belt really quick.

382
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 6: You know.

383
00:19:46,520 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 9: I kind of thought that I already knew everything, I

384
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:51,320
Speaker 9: got all the skills for everything, you know, and and

385
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 9: and I underestimated how much goes into this championship mentality

386
00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 9: in the preparation to be a champ.

387
00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 8: Yes, now, ALASHIPKEI made a GIMMI by s Nach to

388
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 8: get the Minkaman Robote.

389
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:15,560
Speaker 9: I know which mistakes I allowed myself to make before

390
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 9: that first fight, and I know that the big thing

391
00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 9: that was missing was teamwork. And this is something that

392
00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 9: we fixed. We are now a team.

393
00:20:23,560 --> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 3: You look, you can argue looking back on the losses

394
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,720
Speaker 3: he suffered at the highest level that like maybe one

395
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 3: was clean and clear. So what do you believe this comeback,

396
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,159
Speaker 3: the way that he's raised his game at age thirty

397
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 3: two here, what does it say about his potential upside

398
00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:40,639
Speaker 3: moving forward?

399
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 4: Well, what's kind of interesting to me, And I think

400
00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:45,719
Speaker 4: this is something I've not seen discussed enough, which is

401
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 4: in many ways, the way he rushed to the title

402
00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 4: so quickly ended up causing him to not be able

403
00:20:55,040 --> 00:20:58,919
Speaker 4: to hold on to it. On the other hand, the

404
00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 4: fact that he lost it so early into his athletic

405
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 4: prime despite having as we've talked about, the three subsequent

406
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,400
Speaker 4: losses back to back to back, it actually enabled him

407
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 4: during his prime to reconstitute himself and then reclaim the belt.

408
00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,160
Speaker 4: Towards the end of his prime. He's thirty two BC.

409
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 4: I think he's going to be thirty three. I think

410
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,200
Speaker 4: around February. I could be wrong. You can double check that.

411
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:20,720
Speaker 6: Hold on.

412
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:26,639
Speaker 4: I goud steeze. Excuse me, yeah, thank you. But it

413
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 4: actually is kind of interesting. Most people, they you know,

414
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 4: a lot of guys, they don't get the title until

415
00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:33,640
Speaker 4: they're almost in the middle or the end of their prime,

416
00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:36,560
Speaker 4: or least some title opportunities. But because he got it

417
00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 4: so early, he was able to reconstitute himself and then

418
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 4: recapture it still within the late end anyway of the

419
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 4: prime version of himself. That unusual early detour BC, and

420
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 4: with the right changes in his teamwork, the right changes

421
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,600
Speaker 4: in his game, leveling up all the other things that

422
00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,240
Speaker 4: go into it, but being able to channel that back

423
00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:00,359
Speaker 4: enable him to have success on this back end. Again,

424
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 4: everything about this is unusual. He's not supposed to be

425
00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 4: in this position. But by the virtue of all of

426
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:08,080
Speaker 4: the many things that have happened to him and his

427
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,920
Speaker 4: considerable talent, here he is bucking the trend you're asking

428
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 4: about where he goes upside. He's still got some good

429
00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,200
Speaker 4: time left. Do you favor him against Umar. Do you

430
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,280
Speaker 4: favor him against Morob and a rematch? These are really

431
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,679
Speaker 4: difficult fights. It's going to be hard for either of

432
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:24,240
Speaker 4: those guys to win, and any of the three, but

433
00:22:24,720 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 4: he is going to make it tough for any of

434
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,280
Speaker 4: them and I can't wait to see. Yeah.

435
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 3: Before we get into what's next, I also need to

436
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,800
Speaker 3: mentioning that he learned the lesson that a lot of

437
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:37,639
Speaker 3: people learn against Morob, that that Cardio is just a

438
00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,919
Speaker 3: different beast inside the Devalishvili. So if you want to

439
00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:43,360
Speaker 3: contend with him, right, I always make that comparison back

440
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 3: to Stepe, who lost that very competitive five round main

441
00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,119
Speaker 3: event against Junior Dosatos, part impartially because he had to

442
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 3: learn in that moment what five yar on cardio really was.

443
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 3: Emboided Stepe turn that around for the future of his career.

444
00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 3: You gotta give you on a ton of credit for

445
00:22:59,880 --> 00:23:02,600
Speaker 3: the cardio he had in this rematch to be able

446
00:23:02,640 --> 00:23:05,000
Speaker 3: to keep it up at that level, especially in the

447
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 3: championship rounds, when normally Morob just turns it up to

448
00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:13,000
Speaker 3: another gear and just overwhelms. You look like taking away

449
00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,600
Speaker 3: from the grind of Morob doing four camps the way

450
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 3: cut all of that, I think you can take it

451
00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 3: away because Yan raised his game so much that even

452
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 3: if Morob was seventy five percent of himself, if that's true,

453
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:29,000
Speaker 3: that seventy five percent could still win on most nights

454
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 3: against almost anybody in the world. But Yan knew what

455
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 3: he was up against. He retooled, so on the flip side, Luke,

456
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 3: I did want to sneak this question in. You always

457
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:41,080
Speaker 3: talk about when someone's on top for a long time

458
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:44,440
Speaker 3: that the tape study just gets build up and up

459
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:47,159
Speaker 3: and up. And yes, we kind of fell into that

460
00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:50,160
Speaker 3: same groove when someone's so dominant for so long, where

461
00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:51,880
Speaker 3: we both kind of said it heading into this fight

462
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 3: that like, until Morob, until he doesn't, I'm gonna believe

463
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:57,800
Speaker 3: in him and I'm gonna pick him. How much of

464
00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 3: this victory do you think was the idea that, for

465
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 3: as great as Morob is, and he raised up his

466
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 3: striking in recent fights, he's become a legitimate top three

467
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 3: pound for pound fighter coming into this fight, how much

468
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,880
Speaker 3: was it that, like all of those things that made

469
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,919
Speaker 3: him great, you give the opponents enough time to study

470
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,639
Speaker 3: it and figure it out that in some cases his

471
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:21,600
Speaker 3: style was almost solved by Yon in this performance.

472
00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,119
Speaker 4: There's there's no question in my mind, and this is

473
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 4: the most important I want to say something too, because

474
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,960
Speaker 4: as Morob has gotten hotter and hotter and hotter. Obviously

475
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:32,560
Speaker 4: it came to a conclusion on Saturday, but during this long,

476
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,040
Speaker 4: incredible run he's been on where he's basically defeating every

477
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:39,159
Speaker 4: style with what can be described as labor. I mean,

478
00:24:39,320 --> 00:24:42,359
Speaker 4: you know, he obviously nearly knocked out San Hagan, he

479
00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:44,720
Speaker 4: submitted Shawn O'Malley, but in general we kind of know

480
00:24:45,160 --> 00:24:46,639
Speaker 4: what the score is. So I've been doing a lot

481
00:24:46,680 --> 00:24:49,199
Speaker 4: of thinking like what kind of style beats Morob? You know,

482
00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:50,440
Speaker 4: what do you have to have? And one of the

483
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,480
Speaker 4: things I've been thinking about was that, you know, I

484
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,080
Speaker 4: don't know how much sense it makes to try and

485
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,080
Speaker 4: out labor the guy. And you know, yes, you want

486
00:24:57,080 --> 00:24:59,000
Speaker 4: to fight takedowns, but not super hard, Like what you

487
00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 4: want to do is be able to to a time

488
00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:03,240
Speaker 4: super hard. But in general, what you want to be

489
00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:05,800
Speaker 4: able to do is just score maximum damage, right because

490
00:25:05,840 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 4: otherwise he's just going to be able to keep working.

491
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 4: And to me, what is so impressive about what Yan

492
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:16,600
Speaker 4: did was Yan actually was like, no, that's actually not

493
00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,960
Speaker 4: the game plan. The game plan is we're gonna out

494
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 4: wrestle him first and then we're gonna worry about the

495
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 4: damage that comes later. And there were some other adjustments

496
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,879
Speaker 4: that he made. I don't know if anyone picked up

497
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,800
Speaker 4: on this. He got his legs battered by Morob in

498
00:25:29,840 --> 00:25:31,639
Speaker 4: the first fight. Morob tried it this time and he

499
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,000
Speaker 4: checked him early, and Rob never really went back to it.

500
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 4: Like that is an important adjustment, and it leads me

501
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:38,480
Speaker 4: to say the following, Not only did he show what

502
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 4: you actually have to have, which is, you know, other

503
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 4: worldly level of wrestling, but it doesn't start with damage first,

504
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,040
Speaker 4: and don't worry about the wrestling. It's worry about the

505
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 4: wrestling and then let the damage take care of itself.

506
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 4: And more to the point, I think that they kind

507
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,200
Speaker 4: of knew what his offensive system is. B See, he's

508
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,760
Speaker 4: got head inside singles, head outside, singles, doubles, different setups

509
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 4: for all three and against the fence. He has different

510
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,239
Speaker 4: ways in which he goes to try and trip out

511
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,160
Speaker 4: Cosota hooks, all different with things he uses. He has

512
00:26:05,240 --> 00:26:07,359
Speaker 4: some kind of judo throws as well. He's got a

513
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 4: Nucci mata, things like that. They had him dead to rights.

514
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,440
Speaker 4: They figured out all of the places that you need

515
00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,359
Speaker 4: to stop or reverse it to utterly kill it in

516
00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 4: the process, and it had a pronounced effect on the

517
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 4: whole thing. I mean understand. You know forty nine takedown

518
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,600
Speaker 4: takedowns attempted in their first fight. He only got eleven

519
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:30,880
Speaker 4: of them, which I know eleven is a lot, obviously,

520
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 4: but relative to forty nine is not very high. Yan

521
00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 4: did a really good job the first time, but to

522
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,320
Speaker 4: reduce him to two and not just reduce him to two, BC,

523
00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:41,640
Speaker 4: he didn't get off nearly as many attempts either. They

524
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 4: knew what his offensive system was. And by the way,

525
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,400
Speaker 4: I haven't mentioned how this goes to the front headlock.

526
00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 4: He couldn't make effective use of the front headlock in

527
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:50,800
Speaker 4: this fight. He got two cradles in the first fight.

528
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 4: They figured him out. And to your point BC about

529
00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 4: looking at the tape, they clearly clearly game planned around

530
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:04,280
Speaker 4: the specific sinne that Mirob puts you in. Work those out,

531
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 4: and I thought he did a brilliant job.

532
00:27:06,320 --> 00:27:08,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I thought there were two significant moments where

533
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:11,199
Speaker 3: Yon really planted the flag to say this will not

534
00:27:11,280 --> 00:27:13,480
Speaker 3: look like the first fight. The first one was in

535
00:27:13,560 --> 00:27:15,679
Speaker 3: round one when he landed that huge I think it

536
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:19,080
Speaker 3: was a counter left hand that you know, visibly stung

537
00:27:19,119 --> 00:27:22,040
Speaker 3: Morob and showed him that like if you're just gonna

538
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:23,719
Speaker 3: spam me, like you're gonna pay for it. And then

539
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,200
Speaker 3: obviously the second one was round three when he picked

540
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,600
Speaker 3: him up and slammed him on his damn head. Luke

541
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,879
Speaker 3: never never would have guessed that in that moment, I

542
00:27:31,880 --> 00:27:34,720
Speaker 3: felt like had a profound shift and like this is

543
00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:37,439
Speaker 3: Yan's night. From that moment for it, it really felt

544
00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,000
Speaker 3: like this was going to be Yon's It.

545
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:41,959
Speaker 4: It takes the right positioning, it takes a little moxy,

546
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:45,480
Speaker 4: but it's also them understanding position If I'm going for

547
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,960
Speaker 4: a guillotine on UBC, what is protecting me from getting slammed?

548
00:27:49,480 --> 00:27:51,480
Speaker 4: I mean could be positioned if I'm putting enough stress

549
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,320
Speaker 4: on your low back or something like that. But my

550
00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,439
Speaker 4: hands are occupied. So if your hands are occupied and

551
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:58,080
Speaker 4: you're in a good enough position to be able to

552
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:00,840
Speaker 4: get to an angle to do it, dude, give him

553
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 4: frequent flyer miles And that's exactly what he did. He

554
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,120
Speaker 4: had no way to brace himself, so he went crashing first,

555
00:28:06,160 --> 00:28:09,440
Speaker 4: a face first into the mat. Just just amazing. Situational

556
00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 4: awareness because they knew to plan for that front headlock series.

557
00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 3: Now, I did feel bad watching the the clip that

558
00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 3: was posted online after Morob like in tears apologizing to

559
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:21,880
Speaker 3: his family and his country. I mean, he's been such

560
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:25,320
Speaker 3: a decorated champion. He's got a hilarious personality. I know,

561
00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 3: the pride he has for Georgia and all of that.

562
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:31,760
Speaker 3: So I certainly felt bad. Here's Morob and the ambulance afterwards,

563
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 3: though with his buddy al Joe, where they felt like

564
00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:35,160
Speaker 3: they were lightning the mood.

565
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 10: I am in the hospital with my brother Al Jeb

566
00:28:40,960 --> 00:28:47,280
Speaker 10: and then my brother Dram. I'm on the phone with

567
00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:47,760
Speaker 10: my mother.

568
00:28:53,200 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 2: Hi, I guess And that's.

569
00:29:02,320 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 10: A don't like.

570
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:20,640
Speaker 4: All right, A lot of a lot of Georgian in

571
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:22,400
Speaker 4: that one. But there was a caption too being like,

572
00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 4: you know, I'm thanks for everyone for their support and

573
00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:25,120
Speaker 4: I'll be back there.

574
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 3: And by the way, Morob did go to the post

575
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 3: fight party at the club. He did go back with

576
00:29:30,560 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 3: Nina Drama to eat all those donuts. I don't know

577
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 3: if anyone saw that video as well. So Morob took

578
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 3: it in stride as he always does. Luke, let's close

579
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 3: the discussion by talking about what should be next. Morob

580
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:42,719
Speaker 3: used his time in the post fight interview with Joe

581
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 3: Rogan to push for the idea of an immediate trilogy.

582
00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:50,000
Speaker 3: Should that be the direction UFC goes or should they

583
00:29:50,040 --> 00:29:52,400
Speaker 3: tell him to take some time off. Told me this

584
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:54,800
Speaker 3: week that he's got some trip planned where he's gonna

585
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 3: go train with Zuck, you know, and but he wanted

586
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 3: to come back in March no matter what I mean. Look,

587
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:03,080
Speaker 3: it's hard to deny a guy that's won fourteen in

588
00:30:03,080 --> 00:30:04,880
Speaker 3: a row and we were calling in the bantam weight

589
00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 3: go But I really want to see Umar if he

590
00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,600
Speaker 3: gets by Davis and Figaredo in the next couple months

591
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 3: against Piotrian, That's a fight we almost saw leading up

592
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 3: to this, I would love to see that. What do

593
00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,000
Speaker 3: you want next? What will happen next?

594
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 4: So the issue is we've got next month, We've got

595
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:27,600
Speaker 4: basically two bantamweight fights that might have a claim on

596
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 4: the title. Now that's a little crazy to say, BC,

597
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,440
Speaker 4: because actually don't think that we have two bantamweight fights

598
00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,040
Speaker 4: to have a claim on the title, but I have

599
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:39,240
Speaker 4: to admit that we probably will. Here's what I mean. First,

600
00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 4: you've got Umar versus Figgy. Now, what's interesting about that

601
00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:45,520
Speaker 4: FIVEBC is it's on the prelims, which kind of tells

602
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:47,800
Speaker 4: you what they think about Umar a little bit here.

603
00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:51,160
Speaker 4: Maybe that's the first one, but if Umar wins BC,

604
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 4: I think he's got a decent case for a fresh

605
00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 4: title shot. That's one. Then you have the other one,

606
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,880
Speaker 4: which is much more interesting to me, which is Sean O'Malley,

607
00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Speaker 4: at least as a weird attraction, Sean O'Malley versus Song

608
00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:07,000
Speaker 4: You Dong? Great fight. What I mean is, b see,

609
00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,760
Speaker 4: can we really sit here and say that if Sean

610
00:31:09,800 --> 00:31:13,040
Speaker 4: O'Malley and I'm Gonna make something up knocks out Sean

611
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,720
Speaker 4: Song you Dong, They're he's not in the picture for

612
00:31:16,760 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 4: a title. I'm not saying that he should be. I'm

613
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 4: not saying I think, oh that's the best argument. I'm

614
00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 4: saying just look how they're booking title fights.

615
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 3: Look to be fair, They're booking fights to make stars,

616
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:30,360
Speaker 3: which is kind of what we asked of them to

617
00:31:30,400 --> 00:31:32,959
Speaker 3: do in this new era, right sort of.

618
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:36,040
Speaker 4: I mean, you can do the Strikeforce thing a little

619
00:31:36,040 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 4: bit where you give guy. The people misunderstand the Strikeforce model.

620
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 4: The Strikeforce model is as follows if there is a

621
00:31:44,120 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 4: really deserving contender, they didn't really fuck with him too much.

622
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 4: But what they did was they gave them gimmes in between, right,

623
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 4: they give him a deserving guy, two deserving guys, and

624
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 4: then the third one would be like, you know, just

625
00:31:56,320 --> 00:31:58,400
Speaker 4: a walk in the park. And it wasn't just for champions,

626
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,360
Speaker 4: it was for anyone with a big name. They would

627
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,240
Speaker 4: give them tune up fights all the time, and this

628
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,080
Speaker 4: did wonders for them. It was an important thing. Pride

629
00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 4: did something similar. People look at Fador's resume there like, Okay,

630
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 4: I know this guy, I know that guy. Who the

631
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 4: fuck is this guy? This was done on purpose and

632
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 4: also important to satisfy the Japanese market, But you know,

633
00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:20,920
Speaker 4: that can be a thing that's different than you know,

634
00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:25,000
Speaker 4: we've got like massively deserving contenders, which I'll get come

635
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:27,000
Speaker 4: back to a bantamait in a second. We're just going

636
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 4: to ignore that. We're gonna give guys title shots off

637
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,560
Speaker 4: of one win, you know. I mean again, Strike Force

638
00:32:31,640 --> 00:32:33,479
Speaker 4: might have done a little bit like that, but this

639
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 4: feels a little more heavy handed. It's more about giving

640
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 4: guys gimmes in between hard fights rather than just ignoring

641
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,040
Speaker 4: the hard fight altogether. What I want to make though,

642
00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:48,120
Speaker 4: is BC, Okay, you got O'Malley, maybe, Umar, maybe, but

643
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:52,240
Speaker 4: Morob is the consensus. I think best bantam weight.

644
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:55,280
Speaker 3: Too, so Hobby, Aman's and Hobbies in this discussion.

645
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,360
Speaker 4: Correct, he's on the outside, but I don't think he's

646
00:32:57,440 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 4: too far from it fair enough. But Mara, you know,

647
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,520
Speaker 4: if you're gonna give anyone a title rematch or I

648
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 4: should say, a trilogy, in this case, it would be

649
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 4: someone like Marab. But here's why I'm gonna say this

650
00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 4: is a little different. In addition to mention the other

651
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,360
Speaker 4: two names, BC, what you also have here is a

652
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:15,000
Speaker 4: case where it was not a close fight and it's

653
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:19,240
Speaker 4: already their second one. Like there's there's no controversy about

654
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 4: this one. The guy just fucking lost. What I think

655
00:33:21,800 --> 00:33:24,160
Speaker 4: they should do BC is give one of the two

656
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 4: winners from UFC three twenty four a shot against Yon.

657
00:33:28,320 --> 00:33:29,560
Speaker 4: Morob gets the winner of that.

658
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:36,400
Speaker 3: How about Morob's a hobby and Umar if he wins,

659
00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:37,280
Speaker 3: gets Yan.

660
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 4: I don't get a lot, I don't hate it. I

661
00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 4: don't have a ton of interest in marj.

662
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,479
Speaker 3: It'd be hard for me to get fired up about.

663
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:53,000
Speaker 3: Look I'm not saying I'm supporting sort of the shameless

664
00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,000
Speaker 3: matchmaking style that they're already employing for next year. I'm

665
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 3: a CBS paramount guy. I want them to use this

666
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 3: new non pay per view platform to build stars. Believe me,

667
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 3: I'm not supporting all the choices. I don't like Diego

668
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,880
Speaker 3: Lopez in the spot on you know, again and again.

669
00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:13,680
Speaker 3: But for O'Malley to go from two dominant losses against

670
00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:14,800
Speaker 3: the champion.

671
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 4: I get I He's not my choice. If Umar wins,

672
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:21,280
Speaker 4: it should be Umar.

673
00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're setting up a scenario where he would knock

674
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 3: out song You Dong, And I'm not saying that's not

675
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,839
Speaker 3: worth nothing, but yeah, I wouldn't love that. I'm also

676
00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,000
Speaker 3: an Umar guy. I'm just gonna say, like, I believe

677
00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 3: this guy is championship ready right now. I believe you

678
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,200
Speaker 3: could plug him into the title fight right now. Is

679
00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:37,640
Speaker 3: a little Were you not surprised that they put put

680
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,920
Speaker 3: Umar in another fight? I thought he was gonna fight

681
00:34:39,920 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 3: the winner of this fight regardless.

682
00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 4: Bautista's hard to look good against. So for that reason,

683
00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 4: I'm not like utterly shocked, but they're definitely they're making

684
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:52,759
Speaker 4: them take a little bit of a longer road, right,

685
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:53,880
Speaker 4: I think that's fair to say.

686
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:56,000
Speaker 3: All right, all right, we'll see how they roll that out.

687
00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,879
Speaker 3: But congratulations to Pyotr Yan A no we.

688
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 4: Got we gotta get a long Like. How distraught were you?

689
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:02,120
Speaker 11: Oh?

690
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:02,439
Speaker 3: Yeah?

691
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:05,480
Speaker 4: As each round? First round I thought was pretty competitive obviously,

692
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 4: but after that, brother, the fight was gone.

693
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,120
Speaker 5: It's crazy how the fight was scored, because even after

694
00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,440
Speaker 5: round one, I was like, damn, man, I kind of

695
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,800
Speaker 5: think Yan won that round. It was close, but I

696
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 5: actually gave it to Yan, And then obviously the next

697
00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:20,319
Speaker 5: four were very clearly on so I thought it was

698
00:35:20,360 --> 00:35:20,879
Speaker 5: five to nothing.

699
00:35:20,960 --> 00:35:21,120
Speaker 7: Yon.

700
00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 5: I didn't even when I heard forty eight forty seven,

701
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:24,680
Speaker 5: I was like, oh shit, are we going to get

702
00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:25,759
Speaker 5: some corrupt score in here?

703
00:35:25,800 --> 00:35:26,279
Speaker 6: What do we got?

704
00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,480
Speaker 3: Yeah? I don't know what DC was on thinking that

705
00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:29,879
Speaker 3: Morob was up to.

706
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 4: Two nil one complaining about DC's commentary, and I was

707
00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 4: doing the watch a lot. It's hard for me to

708
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 4: pay attention to it. What was so bad about it?

709
00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,120
Speaker 3: He just was kind of matter of fact that it

710
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,240
Speaker 3: should be two nothing Morobs. So whenever they were putting

711
00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:44,399
Speaker 3: the journalist tweets up of people saying like to nothing, Yon,

712
00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 3: he was just like that's crazy. Whereas there's a really

713
00:35:47,719 --> 00:35:50,319
Speaker 3: strong argument for round one to be a yan round.

714
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,359
Speaker 3: It could go either way. I didn't think round two

715
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,440
Speaker 3: was all that close. No, but yeah, the other thing

716
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:58,880
Speaker 3: I wanted to say is too many voices in Morob's corner.

717
00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 3: Easy to point out that he lost, but three different

718
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,200
Speaker 3: voices competing with each other in Rob's corner in between

719
00:36:05,239 --> 00:36:05,600
Speaker 3: each op.

720
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:07,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot, a lot.

721
00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 3: All right, let's go into topic number two, which was

722
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,680
Speaker 3: Saturday's co main event. Yeah, we didn't learn that much

723
00:36:12,680 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 3: in the end, as Joshua Van, looking to become the

724
00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:19,320
Speaker 3: second youngest champion in UFC history behind John Jones, accomplished

725
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,399
Speaker 3: the feat but not in the way that we would

726
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:24,240
Speaker 3: have hoped or wanted here in a round one TKO

727
00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:28,279
Speaker 3: win via injury, as after exchanging a very high pace

728
00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:31,560
Speaker 3: exchange for both fighters in that first minute, you had

729
00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 3: a very unusual ending as Champion Alexandro Pantosa reached out

730
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,360
Speaker 3: his arm to catch himself on the fall and injured

731
00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 3: his elbow his shoulder. There was a little bit of

732
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:45,360
Speaker 3: debate to that just thirty seconds into the fight, resulting

733
00:36:45,400 --> 00:36:48,879
Speaker 3: in a title change. Very reminiscent, by the way, Luke

734
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:51,400
Speaker 3: when you and I were cage sided for Bellator NYC

735
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,640
Speaker 3: and Michael Chandler lost his title to Brent Primis on

736
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,640
Speaker 3: that injured foot where you're just like, why do the

737
00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 3: rules mean that the title has to change hands? On there?

738
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:03,359
Speaker 4: Just my editorium, I can tell you the answer. There's

739
00:37:03,400 --> 00:37:07,000
Speaker 4: actually a very good reason for it. Why shouldn't it understand?

740
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:10,359
Speaker 4: He threw a head kick to Josh Van who caught it,

741
00:37:10,800 --> 00:37:13,040
Speaker 4: and then he tries to escape and Van actually kind

742
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 4: of releases him and on the landing he whatever whatever

743
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 4: happened there, he had the he had the injury. That's fighting.

744
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,759
Speaker 4: Nobody fouled him. Sometimes you do a spinning kick and

745
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,760
Speaker 4: you twist your ankle. Sometimes you get your jaw broken

746
00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,120
Speaker 4: by you know, uh, you ran into his hip, you know,

747
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,040
Speaker 4: or some kind some kind of weird medical event. An

748
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 4: injury happens just in the course of fighting itself, independent

749
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:39,640
Speaker 4: of someone that you know, landing a knockout blow. That's

750
00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 4: part of fighting. The part where it becomes an issue

751
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,960
Speaker 4: is if it's from a foul. That's when you bring

752
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 4: in the doctor. When you cast time, you're kicked in

753
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 4: the balls, you get raked in the eyes, break you

754
00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 4: know whatever, the arm elbows, whatever, that's that's just fighting,

755
00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 4: that's regular fights.

756
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,800
Speaker 3: I feel like I know why it could. You wouldn't

757
00:37:55,840 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 3: change the rule because then people could potentially, you know,

758
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 3: fake injuries and try to get out of fights in

759
00:38:01,160 --> 00:38:03,440
Speaker 3: which they're losing. I just wish, you know, how boxing

760
00:38:03,520 --> 00:38:06,920
Speaker 3: has that rule pertaining to fouls where if a foul

761
00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,040
Speaker 3: happens before the first four rounds are completed, in an

762
00:38:09,040 --> 00:38:11,880
Speaker 3: accidental fall, the fight would go to it. It wouldn't

763
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 3: go to the scorecards, it would be a no contest.

764
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:16,200
Speaker 3: I almost wish there was some sort of whether it's

765
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,960
Speaker 3: a half round or a full first round, where if

766
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:23,120
Speaker 3: one of those you know, mysterious injuries happened, where you

767
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,759
Speaker 3: can cause an injury. I get that. I think we

768
00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,520
Speaker 3: can all agree this was just bad luck either way.

769
00:38:28,960 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 3: Joshuavan is the new champion, and he celebrated like one,

770
00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:35,480
Speaker 3: So Luke, while there's very little to glean or take

771
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 3: away from the situation because we just had twenty to

772
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 3: thirty seconds of some fun exchanges. Are we allowed to

773
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 3: say at age thirty five that Pantosia might never be

774
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,920
Speaker 3: the same after an injury like this? And for all

775
00:38:47,960 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 3: we know may not get back to the title level.

776
00:38:50,280 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 3: I hate even asking you that because I'd almost wish

777
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 3: they pressed pause in the division until he was healthy,

778
00:38:55,120 --> 00:38:57,319
Speaker 3: because this is such bad luck. But it is what

779
00:38:57,440 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 3: it is.

780
00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:05,800
Speaker 4: Luke I, I think he'd probably be a little premature

781
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:09,319
Speaker 4: to be like, oh, he'll never get back, especially if

782
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 4: it's a dislocation. Now, even with a dislocation, a break

783
00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,600
Speaker 4: can occur, or a tear of a ligament, some kind

784
00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:21,479
Speaker 4: of connective tissue can happen as well. If that's the case,

785
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 4: then BC and then we've got some real quality of

786
00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 4: movement issues that are going to have an impact. If

787
00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 4: it's just a dislocation and there's no surgical intervention that's

788
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,600
Speaker 4: really required. I'm not saying that's a great injury, but

789
00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 4: that by itself BC should not be disqualifying as a

790
00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:40,280
Speaker 4: way to consider him not really eligible for a rematch

791
00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:43,520
Speaker 4: or whatever, but to win to be competitive. Would that

792
00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 4: would not tell me that? But there's obviously these other factors.

793
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:47,279
Speaker 11: B C.

794
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,359
Speaker 4: One is does he heal it properly? Does he come

795
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:53,000
Speaker 4: back too quickly? Does he try to like reassert himself

796
00:39:53,280 --> 00:39:55,360
Speaker 4: because he doesn't want Van out there with the title

797
00:39:55,480 --> 00:39:58,840
Speaker 4: parading like he's somebody that in his view, probably is

798
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,440
Speaker 4: not there. There are ways in which that, even if

799
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:06,040
Speaker 4: the injury itself is not so severe, accompanying factors after

800
00:40:06,120 --> 00:40:08,919
Speaker 4: the fact can make it difficult for him to ever

801
00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:13,759
Speaker 4: regain full function. I would just say, from what we

802
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:16,520
Speaker 4: know so far, which is a big caveat, but from

803
00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,319
Speaker 4: what we know so far, I've not seen anything that

804
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:22,799
Speaker 4: tells me he can't get back there. But BC, this

805
00:40:22,840 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 4: is the other part of the conversation, which is the

806
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 4: guy's thirty five. I don't think he's too far from

807
00:40:26,840 --> 00:40:29,360
Speaker 4: being thirty six. You know, the lighter you go, that

808
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 4: becomes more and more of a death sentence. Is is

809
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 4: it possible that this is an injury that is a

810
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,120
Speaker 4: function of the fact that he's not twenty five, then

811
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,000
Speaker 4: the he is thirty five, and then he's put his

812
00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:44,160
Speaker 4: body through hell over the years to pursue this occupation.

813
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 4: That is something that I kind of worry about, Like,

814
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 4: is this by itself be see a disqualifying medical event?

815
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:54,040
Speaker 4: Maybe not. However, does it underline and highlight the fact

816
00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:55,840
Speaker 4: that this guy is aging in front of us, and

817
00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 4: that even if he does have some glory days in

818
00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 4: front of him, that window is closing rapidly. I kind

819
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 4: of wonder about that a little bit.

820
00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do. I do too. It reminds me. You

821
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:07,320
Speaker 3: know a friend of the program, Rashad Evans So I

822
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:08,880
Speaker 3: used to do a podcast with and we would go

823
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,360
Speaker 3: back and do story time over his career. I always

824
00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:13,600
Speaker 3: bring up Luke. I think you remember this when Rashad

825
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 3: after losing the title losing to John Jones, came back

826
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 3: in that comeback win over Chill Sanna, neeing him to

827
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:22,040
Speaker 3: the stomach and finishing him. He looked like he was

828
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,120
Speaker 3: ready to be champion again, like he had completely retooled,

829
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 3: and then he suffered the type of injury that he

830
00:41:27,320 --> 00:41:30,239
Speaker 3: was never the same from again. You just hope for

831
00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:33,440
Speaker 3: Pintosia that doesn't happen, considering the run he had been

832
00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,600
Speaker 3: on the fact that in the past two years he

833
00:41:35,640 --> 00:41:40,360
Speaker 3: had completely turned his legacy reputation around by improving his

834
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,200
Speaker 3: game so much. But you can't control these things. They

835
00:41:43,239 --> 00:41:45,240
Speaker 3: are what they are. Before we get into this whole

836
00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,359
Speaker 3: hullaboo over Van celebration, did you see that tweet from

837
00:41:49,400 --> 00:41:52,840
Speaker 3: Dominick Cruz who said that fighters should be allowed to

838
00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:55,759
Speaker 3: continue even if their limbs are hanging off I mean,

839
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,359
Speaker 3: this is the same great decorated champion who, by the way,

840
00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,520
Speaker 3: I love I love his arkiness, you know all that

841
00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:04,920
Speaker 3: who said like he should be allowed to fight to

842
00:42:04,960 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 3: the death in the cage. He said, someone's gonna die

843
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,879
Speaker 3: in MMA, eventually, we should be allowed to do that.

844
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:13,040
Speaker 3: He also thinks Keith Peterson smells like cold cuts and

845
00:42:13,120 --> 00:42:15,239
Speaker 3: cheap women. What do you make of that statement he

846
00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 3: put up here?

847
00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:17,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, this is why it's regulated by the government.

848
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,279
Speaker 4: You know, fighters deserve to have a very very important

849
00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 4: contribution to I think all of the rules, to the

850
00:42:25,880 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 4: way in which they are governed by them, how they're paid,

851
00:42:29,320 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 4: like their perspective here very much matters. But they're not

852
00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 4: the final arbiters of anything. Neither are we. But they're not,

853
00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,319
Speaker 4: And this is why they're not. I cannot tell you

854
00:42:38,360 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 4: how many fighters I know who I've talked to who

855
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 4: have told me stuff, mostly off the record, but not always,

856
00:42:45,040 --> 00:42:49,759
Speaker 4: about some kind of medical risk that they're willing to endure,

857
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 4: either to train for a fight or to even compete

858
00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 4: during it, or surgical intervention to allow them to compete

859
00:42:57,239 --> 00:42:59,799
Speaker 4: in some kind of hobbled state. I mean, I've literally

860
00:42:59,840 --> 00:43:02,640
Speaker 4: had guys talked about having their fingers removed. I mean,

861
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 4: just you can't imagine. This is why they can. This

862
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:08,560
Speaker 4: is why it's regulated by the government, because, in addition

863
00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 4: to they're being unscrupulous promoters, there are fighters who will

864
00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:15,680
Speaker 4: absorb and accept and engage with a level of risk

865
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 4: that is simply untenable. If this is going to be

866
00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,759
Speaker 4: a practice that we allow to happen in society, there

867
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,680
Speaker 4: have to be very clear rules. If you have an

868
00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 4: orthopedic injury in the middle of the fight, BC, the

869
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 4: fight is fucking over. It's over, by the way.

870
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,160
Speaker 3: I thought, you know, credit to Dom Cruz's new podcast.

871
00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,319
Speaker 3: I thought the one he did with TJ. Dillashaw where

872
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:38,080
Speaker 3: they talked about the injury against al Jioe with the

873
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,399
Speaker 3: shoulder like that was very good content. Check that out.

874
00:43:40,640 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 3: And if Cruse thinks Peterson smells like that, he should

875
00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 3: meet Jed Mshu. I mean, we've done plenty of pregames

876
00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:47,800
Speaker 3: with that guy. Yeah.

877
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:51,520
Speaker 4: Wow, all right, Dog Mad Dog fifty to fifty butt sweat.

878
00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:55,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Indeed, First, let's get an injuried update from the

879
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,280

911
00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:51,800
Speaker 3: Dude. That's heartbreaking. I stand for pants as mess, you

912
00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:53,839
Speaker 3: would say, Luke. People think I don't wear them during

913
00:45:54,080 --> 00:45:58,279
Speaker 3: strawweight fights. They're wrong. But seriously, the the way that

914
00:45:58,320 --> 00:46:00,839
Speaker 3: guy carries himself a lot of love respect. So by

915
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:02,800
Speaker 3: the way, on the flip side, as much as I

916
00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,960
Speaker 3: don't love seeing him lose his title under these circumstances,

917
00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 3: I don't love seeing Van win the title under these circumstances.

918
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,320
Speaker 3: Even though it's not his fault to become the second

919
00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:16,400
Speaker 3: youngest champion. He celebrated like none of it mattered. A

920
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 3: lot of people took on Bridge. We made sort of

921
00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 3: a fun al Joe Sterling joke, but Van he don't

922
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 3: care about the haters. In fact, he was so absolute

923
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:29,360
Speaker 3: about it. We dialed them for murder. We called up

924
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,960
Speaker 3: our friends over there at Quervo for a little bit

925
00:46:31,960 --> 00:46:41,040
Speaker 3: of shots fired, folks. Core Shots Fired is brought to

926
00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 3: you by Cuervo, and now's a good time to enjoy

927
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:46,919
Speaker 3: the tequila that invented tequila. Here is Josh Van reacting

928
00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:50,160
Speaker 3: to sort of the negative reaction to how happy and

929
00:46:50,200 --> 00:46:53,920
Speaker 3: aggressively he celebrated this breakthrough moment Planner's champion.

930
00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:57,640
Speaker 10: I want to be the yeah active champion for sure,

931
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,920
Speaker 10: but I'm taking this month off, a month.

932
00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 11: Off, And I guess last thing for me would be,

933
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,120
Speaker 11: you know, what would you say to somebody says I

934
00:47:06,120 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 11: can't count that guy as a real champion, that that

935
00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 11: fight didn't really play out?

936
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 4: Like, what what would you say to him?

937
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 5: The Yeah, if you do good, they would touch it,

938
00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:17,279
Speaker 5: and if you do bad they would talk it.

939
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 6: So do would make you happy?

940
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:19,000
Speaker 4: You know what I mean?

941
00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,680
Speaker 6: So it don't mettle what they think?

942
00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:26,520
Speaker 3: Man, I want looke in intumation, Fuck them, bro, Yeah

943
00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:33,799
Speaker 3: inflormation Me paylo taz astana kid. I mean, is there

944
00:47:33,840 --> 00:47:37,480
Speaker 3: any uh is there any villain validity?

945
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:38,320
Speaker 6: Uh?

946
00:47:38,640 --> 00:47:42,600
Speaker 3: Me go to people criticizing him jumping on the cage,

947
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,240
Speaker 3: you know, doing all that whole beef, that whole.

948
00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:49,640
Speaker 4: Look obviously it's going to look weird to the fans

949
00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:52,279
Speaker 4: at home who were robbed of a great fight, who

950
00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 4: were probably very you know, hey, people who paid for

951
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:56,600
Speaker 4: pay per view b see, it might have been the

952
00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,040
Speaker 4: last one. I know there was some pirates, but there's

953
00:47:59,040 --> 00:48:00,719
Speaker 4: a lot of people who paid I'm sure as well.

954
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 4: And it was like, you know, this is fucking annoying

955
00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:04,400
Speaker 4: for that to happen, and then for a guy to

956
00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,160
Speaker 4: go there and like, you know, he's pounding his chest

957
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,400
Speaker 4: like a gorilla and he did something. You know, I

958
00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:11,120
Speaker 4: understand that this is going to piss people off. I

959
00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,960
Speaker 4: sort of get it. At the same time, the guy's

960
00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:18,040
Speaker 4: life has been nothing but a very difficult struggle, and

961
00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:21,440
Speaker 4: it changed in the last year, culminating in this magic

962
00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:24,839
Speaker 4: moment that probably to him feels like DESTINYBC. If you

963
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 4: put yourself in his shoes, like he just must feel

964
00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 4: like he's on top of the world. Let him have

965
00:48:30,840 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 4: some celebration. He'll have to fight someone to keep it.

966
00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:35,239
Speaker 4: We'll worry about it then, you know.

967
00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:38,719
Speaker 3: Indeed, indeed, we've got Dana White talking about what will

968
00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 3: be next for this title given everything that happened. Let's

969
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:44,160
Speaker 3: listen to the CEO the.

970
00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 4: Tuesday answer as well.

971
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:47,879
Speaker 11: But I mean, given the way that thing played out,

972
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 11: if he's okay, do you run that one back right away?

973
00:48:50,640 --> 00:48:51,439
Speaker 4: Do you see what he's doing?

974
00:48:51,719 --> 00:48:53,880
Speaker 3: I don't think he's no matter what happens.

975
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,879
Speaker 12: Listen, I'm no fucking doctor or anything, but I don't

976
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,759
Speaker 12: see him coming back anytime soon. I think that there

977
00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:01,920
Speaker 12: would be a defense before he comes back. I think

978
00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 12: he's gonna need some time, you know, the healing process,

979
00:49:06,920 --> 00:49:09,759
Speaker 12: and sometimes for most of the time. I would say,

980
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 12: ligaments are worse than a break, so he's got to

981
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:15,120
Speaker 12: come back from that, and then how long until he

982
00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 12: starts striking again and stuff like that. So yeah, they'll

983
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 12: probably be a defense before Lassie.

984
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:26,160
Speaker 3: Well, look, it's gonna take time for people to really

985
00:49:26,200 --> 00:49:28,440
Speaker 3: see Van as the champion. Although one more thing on that,

986
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 3: I will say Van talks so much coming into this

987
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:35,080
Speaker 3: fight about this what his success will mean to his

988
00:49:35,400 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 3: a country of me and mar that it would put

989
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,400
Speaker 3: it on the map in people's minds, and that's not

990
00:49:39,480 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 3: a country that we talk about regularly, especially not a

991
00:49:42,480 --> 00:49:46,520
Speaker 3: mixed martial arts So I definitely agree with Van's posture

992
00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:48,360
Speaker 3: from the standpoint of what he's saying that the criticism

993
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:50,440
Speaker 3: is gonna be there no matter what. So let me

994
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:53,120
Speaker 3: do me and enjoy my moment. But I'll also say

995
00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:56,360
Speaker 3: this is a big ass moment for him, his extended family,

996
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,600
Speaker 3: his culture, his country. So I know he came to

997
00:49:59,600 --> 00:50:02,080
Speaker 3: the US as a teenager, grew up in Houston, but

998
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:05,120
Speaker 3: that means a lot in that regard, and I'll give

999
00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:05,440
Speaker 3: him that.

1000
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:09,880
Speaker 4: So also, also, don't forget, don't forget Burmese Python on

1001
00:50:10,160 --> 00:50:13,640
Speaker 4: the end, saying the guy out of extreme couture. Yeah,

1002
00:50:13,680 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 4: I've met I've met him a couple of times. Real

1003
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,279
Speaker 4: nice dude. He he comes from, he calls himself the

1004
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 4: Burmese Python, but you know from me and more so,

1005
00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 4: that little country has still got some you know, he's

1006
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:25,280
Speaker 4: got some heavy hitters for sure.

1007
00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, me and mar What was I saying? I

1008
00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:32,120
Speaker 3: don't know anyway, it doesn't matter, uh, Luke. In terms

1009
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:35,480
Speaker 3: of what's next, You've got the newcomer, the old comer,

1010
00:50:35,920 --> 00:50:40,000
Speaker 3: he's coming, Luke, Kyogi Horrigucci. You've got Tatsura Taira who

1011
00:50:40,000 --> 00:50:43,560
Speaker 3: had a breakthrough stoppage win over Brandon Moreno, you've got

1012
00:50:43,600 --> 00:50:47,880
Speaker 3: the Menel cop versus Brandon roy Vall contender fight next weekend.

1013
00:50:48,239 --> 00:50:59,279
Speaker 3: Who would you like to see next. For Joshua Van, I.

1014
00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:02,440
Speaker 4: Mean, in in theory a rematch, right, I mean, that

1015
00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,440
Speaker 4: seems like the most important one, but obviously that is

1016
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:09,680
Speaker 4: going to be medically very difficult, uh perhaps improbable to

1017
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,719
Speaker 4: pull off. I don't have a better answer than the

1018
00:51:12,719 --> 00:51:15,000
Speaker 4: winner of this week's main event. I don't know what

1019
00:51:15,040 --> 00:51:16,880
Speaker 4: the I don't know what it would be. No one's

1020
00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 4: moving around, there's not I mean, especially if menel Cop wins,

1021
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,879
Speaker 4: like that's kind of a I mean, the Royval fight

1022
00:51:23,960 --> 00:51:25,239
Speaker 4: was cool be see, but I don't I don't need

1023
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:27,800
Speaker 4: to see it run back right away. What do you

1024
00:51:27,840 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 4: make for.

1025
00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:31,000
Speaker 3: Joe Rogan basically editorializing during the interview and saying that

1026
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:32,760
Speaker 3: Tyra could be should be next.

1027
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,319
Speaker 4: So that's an interesting one too, b C. Because he

1028
00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:37,799
Speaker 4: looked also, I know we're gonna talk a little bit

1029
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 4: more about that in the next topic.

1030
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:40,719
Speaker 3: But I.

1031
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,279
Speaker 4: Don't know. I don't know. I mean, Long Island, where

1032
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:45,800
Speaker 4: are you on this one? To me, it seems a

1033
00:51:45,800 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 4: little rush to put Tyra in there, especially when Jra

1034
00:51:48,280 --> 00:51:49,720
Speaker 4: Gucci let's.

1035
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:51,560
Speaker 3: Go good, Let's go good, go Gucci.

1036
00:51:51,600 --> 00:51:53,759
Speaker 5: I'm not high on Tyra either, just because he just

1037
00:51:53,800 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 5: lost to Roy Vaut and I feel like pantos is

1038
00:51:56,120 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 5: probably out at least six months, and because Van is

1039
00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:00,399
Speaker 5: so active, just got him in there.

1040
00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:01,720
Speaker 4: In three months against Horror Gucci.

1041
00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 5: Also, don't you think it's ironic, Horg Gucci called out

1042
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:06,719
Speaker 5: Pantosia and then Pantosa ends up losing. He should have

1043
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:09,120
Speaker 5: just called out Josh Van the whole time, didn't even

1044
00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:10,240
Speaker 5: need to teammate.

1045
00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, long, how about this? Yeah, remember Dana White said

1046
00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:18,480
Speaker 4: at the Postfi Pressor they were considering taking a show

1047
00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:23,120
Speaker 4: to Japan? Could you do gouc Tyra? Winner of that

1048
00:52:23,160 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 4: gets it? You know, depending if they can make that

1049
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:25,759
Speaker 4: in short order.

1050
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:29,200
Speaker 3: You know, I do think if Cop thoroughly beats roy Vall,

1051
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 3: then that could change the discussion because he's been on

1052
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,239
Speaker 3: a run. You got to give Cop that credit. Cop

1053
00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:36,640
Speaker 3: Killer iced Tea. What was the name of that band

1054
00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:37,160
Speaker 3: that I see you?

1055
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:38,560
Speaker 4: Body count?

1056
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:40,600
Speaker 3: Body Count? And also, do you notice how long on

1057
00:52:40,680 --> 00:52:42,880
Speaker 3: Luke's like, I'm not high on Tyra? Dude, high as

1058
00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 3: shit right now?

1059
00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:44,080
Speaker 4: In general?

1060
00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:48,319
Speaker 3: Okay, let's give him that, No, Luke, Lukeseda guy?

1061
00:52:48,480 --> 00:52:48,799
Speaker 4: All right?

1062
00:52:48,880 --> 00:52:49,040
Speaker 2: Luke.

1063
00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 3: So to close on this topic, by the way, two

1064
00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,760
Speaker 3: decorated top five pound four pound champions getting their titles

1065
00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:01,040
Speaker 3: flipped upside down, which makes an interesting scenari for the UFC.

1066
00:53:01,480 --> 00:53:04,920
Speaker 3: Balanc Gonna Shochenko on her second reign at Flyway with

1067
00:53:05,040 --> 00:53:08,720
Speaker 3: two defenses on the second reign is the longest reigning

1068
00:53:08,960 --> 00:53:12,520
Speaker 3: UFC champion at the moment. Here's a graphic of some

1069
00:53:12,640 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 3: of that turnover. Uh. In one way, you expect it

1070
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:20,080
Speaker 3: because the sport's crazy. But in another way, Luke, it's

1071
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,839
Speaker 3: weird to see all the old guard just chopped down

1072
00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 3: one by one.

1073
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:24,200
Speaker 7: Man.

1074
00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:27,000
Speaker 4: I mean, there's some of these you could have seen coming.

1075
00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,040
Speaker 4: You probably didn't think the Wall was going to end

1076
00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:32,239
Speaker 4: the year as champion, know, but the Yon one just

1077
00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 4: didn't see coming. I mean, uh, I don't know. There's

1078
00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:39,279
Speaker 4: just a bunch of these. You're like, wow, this is

1079
00:53:39,440 --> 00:53:41,719
Speaker 4: uh here. I mean, you're here one day, gone the

1080
00:53:41,760 --> 00:53:42,560
Speaker 4: next brother, it is.

1081
00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Caerra regained the title to his credit, and

1082
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:49,120
Speaker 3: both to Poria and Mahachev moved up so they won

1083
00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 3: titles new weight divisions. But you know, I didn't necessarily

1084
00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:54,240
Speaker 3: see a lot of this happening. By the way, Chimayav

1085
00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:56,800
Speaker 3: is now saying he's gonna fight one more at middleweight

1086
00:53:56,840 --> 00:53:59,080
Speaker 3: than he's going up to two five, so it could continue,

1087
00:53:59,160 --> 00:53:59,680
Speaker 3: Luke for all.

1088
00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:03,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, which means Poton's going to go to heavyweight. You

1089
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:03,879
Speaker 4: know what I mean.

1090
00:54:04,080 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 3: It's a rotating door, all right. Before we get into

1091
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,879
Speaker 3: the rest of the UFC three twenty three undercard, it's

1092
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:12,759
Speaker 3: history lesson time. Professor Campbell's here to tell you that

1093
00:54:12,880 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 3: now's a good time to remember what where Tequila's story

1094
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:20,839
Speaker 3: truly began, because in seventeen ninety five, Quervo invented tequila.

1095
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 3: And since then, all Quervo has been doing is staying

1096
00:54:23,480 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 3: true to their roots. We're talking about the same family,

1097
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 3: the same land. Yes, that same passion. Two hundred and

1098
00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,120
Speaker 3: thirty years later, Can you believe it? Quervo is still

1099
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:38,239
Speaker 3: right here and every pore in every margarita, in every celebration,

1100
00:54:39,000 --> 00:54:44,000
Speaker 3: in every pregame preview on MK So enjoy the tequila

1101
00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:47,400
Speaker 3: that started at all Quervo, the tequila that invented tequila.

1102
00:54:47,400 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 3: Proximoquervo dot com. Please drink responsibly And Luke, Cuervo has

1103
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:57,480
Speaker 3: been such a fantastic partner for us, I really want

1104
00:54:57,480 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 3: to shout them out. Over the past year doing the

1105
00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 3: pregame previews, checking out that Devil's reserve. Shout out to

1106
00:55:04,760 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 3: the makers, the inventors of tequila themselves. I'm talking about Quervo.

1107
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,799
Speaker 3: All right, thank you? Right, all right, let's go on

1108
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:16,000
Speaker 3: over new topic number three elsewhere on the UFC three

1109
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:19,240
Speaker 3: to twenty three main card. How about vandamwaight prospect Peyton

1110
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:22,080
Speaker 3: Talbot during the same year in which he had his

1111
00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:25,799
Speaker 3: balloon popped by veteran Hyoni Barcellos and a lot of

1112
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,200
Speaker 3: talk about whether he was on his way to becoming

1113
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,160
Speaker 3: more of a bust. What is this some kind of bust? Yeah,

1114
00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:35,000
Speaker 3: it's very impressive or or could he turn it around?

1115
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 3: He bounced back from the Barcelos lost with a big win,

1116
00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:41,000
Speaker 3: and he came out against Henry Sujudo and I'll let

1117
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,360
Speaker 3: it to a lot look like the finished product, the

1118
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:48,759
Speaker 3: absolute real deal. What did Peyton Talbot, who beat up

1119
00:55:48,760 --> 00:55:53,440
Speaker 3: Henry Suhudo in the Legend's final fight, earning a unanimous decision.

1120
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:58,040
Speaker 3: What did he ultimately prove to ult about his upside

1121
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:02,560
Speaker 3: after taking Suhuto to the woodshed man and putting it

1122
00:56:02,600 --> 00:56:03,400
Speaker 3: on him.

1123
00:56:03,840 --> 00:56:08,920
Speaker 4: B See if Josh Van is excluded from the category

1124
00:56:08,960 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 4: of breakthrough Fighter of the Year. I honestly might have

1125
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:13,879
Speaker 4: to give it to Peyton Talbot, and that's a little

1126
00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:15,359
Speaker 4: bit crazy, because I know there's some other guys who

1127
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:19,120
Speaker 4: have had some great breakout years, but I actually feel

1128
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:21,960
Speaker 4: like his loss almost sets the table for what has

1129
00:56:22,000 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 4: been so amazing BCE. He fought three times this year.

1130
00:56:26,400 --> 00:56:28,800
Speaker 4: He looked like shit against how many Barcellos, who we

1131
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:31,720
Speaker 4: all recognize is also having a great year, So credit

1132
00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:33,919
Speaker 4: to him, But he looked kind of bad in that fight,

1133
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:35,920
Speaker 4: look like he was unprepared for the moment, and I

1134
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:40,400
Speaker 4: was kind of excuse me, I want to thank my

1135
00:56:40,520 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 4: daughter for sneezing right into my mouth the other day.

1136
00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 4: It's been a great couple of days since then. Anyway,

1137
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,560
Speaker 4: he looked good against Felipe Lima and his rebound. In fact,

1138
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,880
Speaker 4: it was very good against Felipe a Lima. And you're like, Okay,

1139
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:57,799
Speaker 4: we're definitely not in emergency territory, and I know what

1140
00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,560
Speaker 4: everyone's gonna say. They're gonna say, all right, but Henry

1141
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,399
Speaker 4: was literally at the end, he was washed a shit,

1142
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,360
Speaker 4: and that's true. However, what I'm gonna point out is

1143
00:57:04,440 --> 00:57:08,160
Speaker 4: number one, BC he got beaten everywhere. Number two he

1144
00:57:08,200 --> 00:57:10,840
Speaker 4: got taken down twice in the same round, and once

1145
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:14,560
Speaker 4: with Henry's signature inside trip takedown. Henry has, in my

1146
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 4: judgment at least up to this point anyway, has had

1147
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:19,840
Speaker 4: the best inside trip in all of MMA, and Peyton

1148
00:57:19,920 --> 00:57:23,320
Speaker 4: hit him with it and then had composure at the

1149
00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,919
Speaker 4: end of the fight BC pointing down at the mat

1150
00:57:25,960 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 4: and exchanging with him in that place, like dude, he

1151
00:57:29,240 --> 00:57:32,360
Speaker 4: came alive this year and I think he got a

1152
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:34,560
Speaker 4: little bit of cold water splashed in his face by

1153
00:57:34,600 --> 00:57:37,880
Speaker 4: Barcelos in January and it woke him up. And now

1154
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:39,600
Speaker 4: look at him. How far he can go? I think

1155
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,479
Speaker 4: is certainly an important debate to have, and we're gonna

1156
00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:44,200
Speaker 4: have it. But I've never not just I'm not just

1157
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,040
Speaker 4: hirghed because of the state of the wind. I'm inspired

1158
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:50,919
Speaker 4: by the speed of the development. And clearly he's got

1159
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:54,120
Speaker 4: a fire under his ass that is motivating him. And

1160
00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:58,080
Speaker 4: look at the rewards of it. We are. This was

1161
00:57:58,280 --> 00:58:01,280
Speaker 4: so much fun and so great to see a young

1162
00:58:01,320 --> 00:58:03,880
Speaker 4: prospect really take a big turn in his career.

1163
00:58:04,360 --> 00:58:06,640
Speaker 3: So huge because when this fight was announced and we

1164
00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:09,360
Speaker 3: all loved the matchmaking, we all said the same thing.

1165
00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:12,600
Speaker 3: I think Shudo gets this done. I mean I remember

1166
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:14,680
Speaker 3: hearing him, you know, plus two hundred something, whatever the

1167
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:18,240
Speaker 3: odds were, and you're thinking, so, Hudos still got enough

1168
00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:21,720
Speaker 3: game planning mindset, you know, I Q all of that,

1169
00:58:21,840 --> 00:58:25,200
Speaker 3: but Talbot took it away looking like the next generation

1170
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:28,200
Speaker 3: bandam Way. It reminded me of the moments leading into

1171
00:58:28,200 --> 00:58:30,200
Speaker 3: the ipokes against song Ya Dong where I felt like

1172
00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 3: Suhudo for the first time was just didn't have enough

1173
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 3: on his fastball, had to do too much fainting shenanigans

1174
00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:39,600
Speaker 3: just to get a shot off, like he had taken

1175
00:58:39,680 --> 00:58:42,920
Speaker 3: that step behind. And while I thought Shudo looked better

1176
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:46,800
Speaker 3: this fight, the fact that Talbot looked great in every aspect,

1177
00:58:46,920 --> 00:58:50,600
Speaker 3: switching stance, is, kicking, punching, the wrestling. I mean, it

1178
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:54,160
Speaker 3: was incredible. I give Henry a lot of credit for

1179
00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,400
Speaker 3: being willing to take this fight, for being willing to

1180
00:58:57,920 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 3: brawl to the end like the true warrior he is,

1181
00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:02,439
Speaker 3: despite you know, I mean, yeah, he's cringe of shit.

1182
00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:04,960
Speaker 3: We could argue he shouldn't have taken that much time

1183
00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,400
Speaker 3: off in his prime, all that stuff, but he handled

1184
00:59:07,440 --> 00:59:10,160
Speaker 3: himself like a real fighter. I even liked the exchange

1185
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:12,840
Speaker 3: after the loss when he talked to Dana sort of

1186
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:15,960
Speaker 3: pleaded for the fifty K, thanked Dana for giving him

1187
00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,400
Speaker 3: the opportunity for him and his family. They played the

1188
00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:21,440
Speaker 3: video package. It was all a nice moment. Yet that

1189
00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:25,200
Speaker 3: was the subplot to the true story of Peyton Talbot

1190
00:59:25,640 --> 00:59:29,440
Speaker 3: climbing through an up and down year and returning to

1191
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 3: being looking like that guy the future of this division.

1192
00:59:32,800 --> 00:59:34,920
Speaker 3: I mean, let's show the damage that he put on

1193
00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:38,320
Speaker 3: a true legend and so Hudo, good lord Luke Thomas,

1194
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:39,479
Speaker 3: whoa dude.

1195
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:43,800
Speaker 4: He beat him up. He beat him up everywhere there

1196
00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 4: was nowhere. I mean again, I thought Sahudo fought back

1197
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:51,040
Speaker 4: with real spirit, and I think that's real. But in

1198
00:59:51,120 --> 00:59:54,120
Speaker 4: the end, like what did he materially do to Peyton Talbot?

1199
00:59:54,240 --> 00:59:56,760
Speaker 4: Not much, not much. In the end he got run

1200
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:59,600
Speaker 4: over in that fight. Also, I do want to say

1201
00:59:59,600 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 4: this bec you know, we kill him when they don't

1202
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:03,640
Speaker 4: do stuff like this, but when they get it right,

1203
01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:08,480
Speaker 4: it's worth saying. The promo package, it wasn't an promo package,

1204
01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:10,400
Speaker 4: but like the thank you package at the end, the

1205
01:00:10,440 --> 01:00:14,000
Speaker 4: video package for Sehudo that they had ready, where they're

1206
01:00:14,000 --> 01:00:16,280
Speaker 4: showing all these highlights and he's climbing this hill the

1207
01:00:16,320 --> 01:00:19,440
Speaker 4: whole time dude, this was This was fantastic. When they're

1208
01:00:19,520 --> 01:00:21,840
Speaker 4: ready for those kinds of things, they kill it. It

1209
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:23,080
Speaker 4: was great they did.

1210
01:00:23,160 --> 01:00:25,840
Speaker 3: And I have loved the career of Henry Shudo, mostly

1211
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:28,760
Speaker 3: because I never believed in him early on, and he

1212
01:00:28,880 --> 01:00:32,720
Speaker 3: won me over over that time. And Luke, when you

1213
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 3: look back at everything he has accomplished, I mean, I'm

1214
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:38,240
Speaker 3: not willing to say he's the you know, combat goat

1215
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:40,760
Speaker 3: of all time, but to win the Olympic gold medal

1216
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,960
Speaker 3: in wrestling, to make that transition to the sport, to

1217
01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 3: upset Demetrius Johnson, even though I didn't like the scoring

1218
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:48,920
Speaker 3: in that rematch, hey, he got it done. He won

1219
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,000
Speaker 3: the championship, He won a championship in a second division

1220
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:56,080
Speaker 3: and probably saved one twenty five and since then he's

1221
01:00:56,200 --> 01:00:59,320
Speaker 3: pretty much only saw the best fights he could possibly make.

1222
01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 3: He d near regained the Bandam weight title against al

1223
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:06,360
Speaker 3: Joe off of that long layoff. In your eyes, how

1224
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:11,320
Speaker 3: should we remember what Suhudo gave to the sport.

1225
01:01:11,680 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 4: One of the very best smaller weight fighters ever in

1226
01:01:15,160 --> 01:01:22,520
Speaker 4: company history, somebody who's athletic pedigree from a previous composite sport,

1227
01:01:22,600 --> 01:01:27,520
Speaker 4: and the unbelievable success they had there only made MM

1228
01:01:27,720 --> 01:01:31,400
Speaker 4: look better, especially when he struggled at first, but then

1229
01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:34,000
Speaker 4: of course, you know, being triumphant also makes MM look better.

1230
01:01:34,040 --> 01:01:35,440
Speaker 4: It's sort of like a Yan and a Yang kind

1231
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:40,440
Speaker 4: of thing. And you know, one of these guys who

1232
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 4: you know, people have said BC, like, oh, is he

1233
01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:45,520
Speaker 4: a what if? And I don't think that's fine. Maybe

1234
01:01:45,560 --> 01:01:48,480
Speaker 4: you disagree. I just don't think that's quite right, because

1235
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:52,320
Speaker 4: if you win two world weight if you win two titles,

1236
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:55,160
Speaker 4: you know, it's hard to say you underachieved. Was the

1237
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:57,400
Speaker 4: idea that he was gonna win? Come on, yeah, I

1238
01:01:57,440 --> 01:02:00,520
Speaker 4: don't know. Well, I mean, but he did leave during

1239
01:02:00,520 --> 01:02:02,880
Speaker 4: the middle of his prime for a big chunk, and

1240
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 4: let's be honest, BC, he never won when he came back.

1241
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 4: His career literally never recovered from that, never ever got

1242
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:12,520
Speaker 4: back to the right moment. And so there is a

1243
01:02:12,560 --> 01:02:15,160
Speaker 4: story to be told about that PC. But for me,

1244
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,520
Speaker 4: easily one of the better, not the best, but something

1245
01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 4: one of the better lower weight fighters we've ever had

1246
01:02:21,120 --> 01:02:24,080
Speaker 4: in the sport, one of the early champ champs as well,

1247
01:02:24,160 --> 01:02:27,560
Speaker 4: to a degree and a credit to the sport of wrestling.

1248
01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:30,880
Speaker 3: If nothing else, I give him, ultimately the credit of

1249
01:02:30,920 --> 01:02:33,280
Speaker 3: being one of the smartest game planners I've ever seen,

1250
01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,800
Speaker 3: and that's what won me over. You know, I didn't

1251
01:02:35,800 --> 01:02:38,080
Speaker 3: think he was all that great coming up. You know,

1252
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:40,720
Speaker 3: he got humbled by DJ that first time when he

1253
01:02:40,800 --> 01:02:44,000
Speaker 3: won the second championship, you know, and put himself at

1254
01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:46,680
Speaker 3: a very high level historically with the other you know,

1255
01:02:47,080 --> 01:02:49,960
Speaker 3: at that point, there wasn't many two division champions. I

1256
01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:52,760
Speaker 3: felt it was almost premature and he had sort of

1257
01:02:53,320 --> 01:02:56,200
Speaker 3: figured out how to sidestep his way to becoming an

1258
01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:59,080
Speaker 3: all time name. And then I really dialed into who

1259
01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,720
Speaker 3: he really was and watched how smart and a lot

1260
01:03:01,720 --> 01:03:03,640
Speaker 3: of that look. I give credit to the be dazzled

1261
01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:07,960
Speaker 3: captain our guy who was in the cage afterwards, Luke

1262
01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:09,320
Speaker 3: coach Eric Right, what's.

1263
01:03:09,160 --> 01:03:11,600
Speaker 4: The last name? Yeah, Albert scene.

1264
01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:13,840
Speaker 3: Albert scene our guy shout out to him. But seriously,

1265
01:03:14,160 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 3: Henry evolved. It took him time, but he evolved into

1266
01:03:17,160 --> 01:03:20,840
Speaker 3: one of the smartest fighters, game planning wise, well roundedness,

1267
01:03:21,120 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 3: and as we saw on Saturday, when he needs to

1268
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,240
Speaker 3: bite down, he'll get it for you, like when he

1269
01:03:26,280 --> 01:03:29,400
Speaker 3: outslugged Joseph Benevitez in one of his early UFC fights.

1270
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:32,640
Speaker 3: You know, a fight of the Year campaign. Fantastic stuff

1271
01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:36,440
Speaker 3: right there from Henry Suhudo. But shout out to Peyton Talbot.

1272
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,680
Speaker 3: Let's see the takedown celebration pick. This made the rounds

1273
01:03:39,720 --> 01:03:42,439
Speaker 3: on Twitter, the huge smile, the tongue out. Who would

1274
01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:44,360
Speaker 3: have thought that he would have done exactly what you said,

1275
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:47,840
Speaker 3: reverse that trip into a position where you know he

1276
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 3: had Suto in control, although they did point out on

1277
01:03:50,440 --> 01:03:53,720
Speaker 3: the broadcast that Shudo isn't active enough when he's on

1278
01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,160
Speaker 3: the bottom there, But that was surprising to see Luke.

1279
01:03:56,320 --> 01:03:58,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, celebrating this way and he got another one like

1280
01:03:58,760 --> 01:04:04,080
Speaker 4: a hard blast double as well, you know, and the

1281
01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,560
Speaker 4: fact that it looks homo erotic BC is just probably

1282
01:04:06,760 --> 01:04:10,680
Speaker 4: icing on the cake for Talbot relative to Sahudo. But no,

1283
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,760
Speaker 4: it's incredible, dude, I mean, that's what I mean. Man.

1284
01:04:12,840 --> 01:04:17,520
Speaker 4: He beat him literally everywhere. The fact that Henry survived

1285
01:04:17,600 --> 01:04:20,120
Speaker 4: is a credit to his fighting spirit. But that's the

1286
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:21,880
Speaker 4: only thing that was saving him in that fight, and

1287
01:04:21,960 --> 01:04:24,200
Speaker 4: his skills weren't getting the job done anymore.

1288
01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,560
Speaker 3: Let's hear from Peyton Talbot after this truly breakthrough win.

1289
01:04:27,680 --> 01:04:30,680
Speaker 3: This is how aging names should hand it off, right,

1290
01:04:30,840 --> 01:04:33,439
Speaker 3: Not Anderson silv against Derek Brunson. This is the type

1291
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:34,920
Speaker 3: of fight let's hear from Talbot.

1292
01:04:35,720 --> 01:04:36,760
Speaker 4: I thought I did pretty good.

1293
01:04:36,960 --> 01:04:39,600
Speaker 13: I need to watch it back as always, but to

1294
01:04:39,680 --> 01:04:43,760
Speaker 13: take down a former Olympic champion twice is pretty major,

1295
01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:48,920
Speaker 13: especially with his bread and butter. So it's surreal, pretty

1296
01:04:48,920 --> 01:04:53,360
Speaker 13: cool putting down a old yeller and retiring a goat

1297
01:04:53,400 --> 01:04:53,720
Speaker 13: like that.

1298
01:04:54,360 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 11: Your striking look fantastic as well, But is it the

1299
01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:58,520
Speaker 11: two takedowns that you're gonna take the most pride in tonight?

1300
01:04:59,520 --> 01:05:02,000
Speaker 13: I need to I rewatched the striking. I felt like

1301
01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:03,439
Speaker 13: I was a little sloppy. I was having a little

1302
01:05:03,480 --> 01:05:04,000
Speaker 13: too much fun.

1303
01:05:04,120 --> 01:05:07,240
Speaker 4: But yeah, you certainly hadn't heard a number of times.

1304
01:05:07,240 --> 01:05:09,240
Speaker 11: Were you surprised at just how durable it was because

1305
01:05:09,240 --> 01:05:10,480
Speaker 11: it looked like there were a couple of times where

1306
01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:12,720
Speaker 11: he was gonna break and he just kind of refused

1307
01:05:12,720 --> 01:05:13,240
Speaker 11: to go away.

1308
01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:16,520
Speaker 13: Yeah, Henry's tough man, He's I think he only got

1309
01:05:16,520 --> 01:05:20,520
Speaker 13: finished once by Demetrius, right. Yeah, so I knew he

1310
01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:22,919
Speaker 13: was gonna be pretty tough to finish, and I knew

1311
01:05:22,920 --> 01:05:24,760
Speaker 13: it was probably gonna be late late in the fight

1312
01:05:24,800 --> 01:05:25,600
Speaker 13: if I dig it one.

1313
01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:28,400
Speaker 4: But I was hitting him really.

1314
01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:31,880
Speaker 13: Hard, man like that's the hardest that's up there on

1315
01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:34,800
Speaker 13: how hard I've hit people. And I saw I saw

1316
01:05:34,880 --> 01:05:38,040
Speaker 13: the decision in him when he was like, I could

1317
01:05:38,120 --> 01:05:40,480
Speaker 13: go out right now, or I could fight through this

1318
01:05:40,560 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 13: and get the decision to fight through it.

1319
01:05:43,280 --> 01:05:45,480
Speaker 11: Will you seek his advice, you know, in the future

1320
01:05:45,520 --> 01:05:46,439
Speaker 11: and training with them.

1321
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 13: And yeah, he's gonna make a phenomenal coach, you know,

1322
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:52,320
Speaker 13: wherever he moves through this. You know, if he chooses

1323
01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:54,560
Speaker 13: to stay in it and coach a little bit, he's

1324
01:05:54,600 --> 01:05:57,360
Speaker 13: gonna be phenomenal at it. So yeah, I'd go and

1325
01:05:57,560 --> 01:05:58,960
Speaker 13: seek his knowledge.

1326
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:01,200
Speaker 11: Last thing for me, you know, there's a point where

1327
01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:02,720
Speaker 11: it looked like you were gonna be fast tracked, that

1328
01:06:02,800 --> 01:06:04,640
Speaker 11: you have the setback, but you looked atm anazing and

1329
01:06:04,680 --> 01:06:06,760
Speaker 11: this is a signature win. So where do you see

1330
01:06:06,800 --> 01:06:08,560
Speaker 11: your career progressing at this point? I mean, do you

1331
01:06:08,560 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 11: want you said you're learning and getting better and improving,

1332
01:06:11,360 --> 01:06:13,400
Speaker 11: But do you like, hey, throw me in the rankings,

1333
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 11: throw me in the top now, or is it still like.

1334
01:06:15,200 --> 01:06:17,320
Speaker 4: Just a steady progression for you at your young age.

1335
01:06:18,000 --> 01:06:19,919
Speaker 13: I don't think I have a choice. I think I'm

1336
01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:22,520
Speaker 13: gonna have a number by my name now either way.

1337
01:06:22,600 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 13: But I mean, this is where I wanted to be.

1338
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:26,560
Speaker 4: I wanted to be in the.

1339
01:06:26,520 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 13: Top ten and just swimming with the sharks. So that's

1340
01:06:29,760 --> 01:06:31,240
Speaker 13: kind of what I wanted out of this. And I

1341
01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:33,640
Speaker 13: was super calm all week because I felt at peace

1342
01:06:33,680 --> 01:06:37,160
Speaker 13: with that that if I did my job in the cage,

1343
01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:39,360
Speaker 13: then I would have a number by my name at

1344
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:43,600
Speaker 13: the end of this. So yeah, I'm just I'm at

1345
01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:45,160
Speaker 13: peace with that, and that's what I've wanted from the

1346
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:47,200
Speaker 13: get go. I'm not super fixated on the belt. I

1347
01:06:47,280 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 13: just want to put on banger fights and find the

1348
01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:50,520
Speaker 13: toughest guys.

1349
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,320
Speaker 3: Luke, he uh just turned twenty seven years old. I'm

1350
01:06:54,800 --> 01:06:57,080
Speaker 3: not trying to say he should fight for the title next,

1351
01:06:56,840 --> 01:07:00,160
Speaker 3: but this is a great step forward. If he's looking

1352
01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:02,160
Speaker 3: for a ranked guy, maybe somebody in the back end

1353
01:07:02,200 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 3: of the ten to fifteen. Are we thinking like a

1354
01:07:04,560 --> 01:07:06,840
Speaker 3: Rob Marcus McGee, what is the best time?

1355
01:07:06,920 --> 01:07:09,600
Speaker 4: Yeah? Yeah, I mean, this is this is where he's at.

1356
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:12,120
Speaker 4: He's should be either in the top ten or pretty

1357
01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,840
Speaker 4: close to it. Long Island Lucas saying, Cheeto Vera. That

1358
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:15,960
Speaker 4: seems a little.

1359
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:19,560
Speaker 5: I don't know if I'm I don't know, So Hudo's

1360
01:07:19,640 --> 01:07:22,000
Speaker 5: number ten right now. So Peyton's going to be number ten.

1361
01:07:22,280 --> 01:07:24,240
Speaker 4: I know, I know that the numbers make sense.

1362
01:07:24,240 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 5: I'm saying he goes eight coming off a couple of losses.

1363
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:28,520
Speaker 5: I feel like that's I think he's eight.

1364
01:07:28,520 --> 01:07:28,720
Speaker 4: I don't.

1365
01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,200
Speaker 3: He did push him. Getting this to hudo fight on

1366
01:07:31,240 --> 01:07:33,520
Speaker 3: the main card is a push. Yeah, he got the push.

1367
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:35,760
Speaker 4: Maybe maybe maybe long Island's right, Maybe that's a good

1368
01:07:35,760 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 4: fight for him, And again it's something that's a bad

1369
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:39,720
Speaker 4: fight for us. I'm saying it's a good fight for him.

1370
01:07:39,760 --> 01:07:43,440
Speaker 4: That's a different question. But yeah, yeah, yeah, maybe that is.

1371
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:46,560
Speaker 4: Maybe that is. I will have to see, but certainly

1372
01:07:46,600 --> 01:07:49,360
Speaker 4: that's the company that he's in now BC We'll see

1373
01:07:49,360 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 4: if he can go from there.

1374
01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:53,040
Speaker 3: Let's move down to the flyweight division. Two time champion

1375
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:56,120
Speaker 3: Brandon Moreno entered this fight against Tatsuro Tyra as a

1376
01:07:56,120 --> 01:07:59,560
Speaker 3: betting underdog, and we were very surprised by that. Boy

1377
01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:02,360
Speaker 3: was I'm surprised to see the way the fight ultimately

1378
01:08:02,360 --> 01:08:05,240
Speaker 3: went as the sharps knew what they were talking about.

1379
01:08:06,200 --> 01:08:09,120
Speaker 3: Tyra is so happy, for sure, and he has reason

1380
01:08:09,160 --> 01:08:12,480
Speaker 3: to be stopping Moreno for the first time in the

1381
01:08:12,480 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 3: Great Mexican Former champion's career and really making a statement

1382
01:08:17,560 --> 01:08:21,799
Speaker 3: two consecutive wins after that main event brawl against Brandon

1383
01:08:21,880 --> 01:08:24,439
Speaker 3: Royvall in which Tyra lost and although he fought well

1384
01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:28,759
Speaker 3: at times, he looked incomplete in that fight. Two fights later,

1385
01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:32,240
Speaker 3: this is a different story, Luke. Was this fight more

1386
01:08:32,320 --> 01:08:37,759
Speaker 3: about Tyra surging or did you see elements of Moreno

1387
01:08:37,960 --> 01:08:40,960
Speaker 3: showing that the beginning of the end is here?

1388
01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:44,920
Speaker 4: So I will tell you Moreno's not old, but he

1389
01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:50,679
Speaker 4: not being dog years. You know. First of all, Tyra

1390
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:54,080
Speaker 4: looked better physically than I've ever seen him. He's always

1391
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:57,280
Speaker 4: obviously been great at finding you know, lead positions, particularly

1392
01:08:57,280 --> 01:09:00,000
Speaker 4: the back in grappling, so that part was not new,

1393
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:02,599
Speaker 4: But BC, I mean I would. I know I'm doing

1394
01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:03,439
Speaker 4: this a lot, but I really want to do it

1395
01:09:03,439 --> 01:09:04,920
Speaker 4: one more time because I haven't talked to him yet

1396
01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:09,080
Speaker 4: long Island. Let me ask you a question. Did Tyra

1397
01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:11,920
Speaker 4: look physically more imposing than he had in the past,

1398
01:09:11,960 --> 01:09:14,600
Speaker 4: and then they operate that way? And then two? Is

1399
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:18,320
Speaker 4: it my imagination or did it look like Moreno wasn't

1400
01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:21,120
Speaker 4: taking the punches as well as he normally does.

1401
01:09:22,800 --> 01:09:24,800
Speaker 5: I gotta be honest, I didn't notice either of those

1402
01:09:24,840 --> 01:09:27,880
Speaker 5: things that much. I just remember round one, Moreno off

1403
01:09:27,880 --> 01:09:30,000
Speaker 5: his back almost had that triangle, and I thought he

1404
01:09:30,080 --> 01:09:31,640
Speaker 5: was gonna get that, and then.

1405
01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:33,360
Speaker 4: Before I know it, the fight's over.

1406
01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:34,640
Speaker 6: I didn't think it was a weird stop. It did

1407
01:09:34,640 --> 01:09:35,679
Speaker 6: you guys think it was a weird stop?

1408
01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:37,000
Speaker 3: A little quick for that?

1409
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:38,920
Speaker 4: I thought it was a little now. I didn't think

1410
01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:40,920
Speaker 4: it was crazy early. I thought it was a little

1411
01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:41,679
Speaker 4: early exactly.

1412
01:09:41,840 --> 01:09:44,200
Speaker 5: It was almost just like, in a matter of moments,

1413
01:09:44,200 --> 01:09:46,559
Speaker 5: oh shit, the fight's over. And then I it just

1414
01:09:46,560 --> 01:09:47,760
Speaker 5: felt like anti climactic.

1415
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:50,280
Speaker 6: I don't know. Maybe again I bet on Moreno, so

1416
01:09:50,400 --> 01:09:51,040
Speaker 6: that's probably why.

1417
01:09:51,080 --> 01:09:53,280
Speaker 4: But yeah, dude, I don't know. He looked a little

1418
01:09:53,280 --> 01:09:55,680
Speaker 4: like he couldn't take punches that well, not so much

1419
01:09:55,720 --> 01:09:58,760
Speaker 4: in the standing, but definitely like from the back when

1420
01:09:58,800 --> 01:10:01,800
Speaker 4: Tyra was unloading on him, he wasn't scrambling with the

1421
01:10:01,840 --> 01:10:05,120
Speaker 4: same kind of force that you saw him, at least

1422
01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:08,200
Speaker 4: in my view get in the Figaredo fight. Now, part

1423
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:11,960
Speaker 4: of that is the pinning pressure that Tyro was applying, Okay,

1424
01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:14,960
Speaker 4: but even then, it just seemed like he was a

1425
01:10:15,000 --> 01:10:18,599
Speaker 4: little bit dare I say manhandled, you know what I mean?

1426
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 4: It kind of looked like he manhandled him. Do the

1427
01:10:21,439 --> 01:10:23,719
Speaker 4: odds makers we were all like, oh, these are crazy

1428
01:10:23,720 --> 01:10:25,360
Speaker 4: odds and all they weren't. They were right on the money.

1429
01:10:25,400 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 3: You know, Yeah, those guys tend to know what they're

1430
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:30,320
Speaker 3: doing to protect the house, it turns out. But you look,

1431
01:10:30,360 --> 01:10:33,280
Speaker 3: Tyro was in insanely great shape as well. He looked

1432
01:10:33,320 --> 01:10:35,360
Speaker 3: like he was ready to go five hard rounds even

1433
01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:38,439
Speaker 3: though this was a three round fight. So breakthrough performance

1434
01:10:38,479 --> 01:10:40,320
Speaker 3: for him. I'm not ready yet for him at the

1435
01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:42,760
Speaker 3: title level. I think he needs one more. I'd rather

1436
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:45,200
Speaker 3: have Horror Gucci or the winner of roy Val Cop

1437
01:10:45,240 --> 01:10:50,800
Speaker 3: And maybe I don't know, does this does rouvalt re

1438
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:54,719
Speaker 3: enter the title picture because Pantosio, who beat him twice

1439
01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,960
Speaker 3: is now out as champion? Or is it the fact

1440
01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:02,240
Speaker 3: that Royval lost to Jan or to Van earlier this year.

1441
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:04,800
Speaker 3: Would that disqualify him or would you say, well that

1442
01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:06,960
Speaker 3: was a Fight of the year contender where you know

1443
01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,320
Speaker 3: Royval was in it until the final thirty seconds when

1444
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:13,160
Speaker 3: he got knocked down. How do you review Roval's title chances?

1445
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:14,960
Speaker 3: If he gets by Cop.

1446
01:11:15,120 --> 01:11:18,240
Speaker 4: Pretty good, if Van is there, because you can run

1447
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:20,840
Speaker 4: that one back. They may not want to because they

1448
01:11:21,040 --> 01:11:25,360
Speaker 4: just saw it, but they could still do it. I

1449
01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:27,880
Speaker 4: mean he, I mean, they're definitely not better with Pantojia

1450
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:30,240
Speaker 4: at the top. Right at least with Van you got

1451
01:11:30,320 --> 01:11:32,759
Speaker 4: one more shot at it, so he has to feel

1452
01:11:32,800 --> 01:11:34,200
Speaker 4: like he's got a little bit of a boost as

1453
01:11:34,200 --> 01:11:34,920
Speaker 4: a consequence.

1454
01:11:35,680 --> 01:11:38,320
Speaker 3: And Luke in the pay per view opener in the

1455
01:11:38,400 --> 01:11:41,599
Speaker 3: light heavyweight division, it was so much sucked some sisters

1456
01:11:41,680 --> 01:11:45,000
Speaker 3: kissing in the end with the draw a tie as

1457
01:11:45,080 --> 01:11:48,639
Speaker 3: in aging and injured Yon Blohovich was unable to ultimately

1458
01:11:48,640 --> 01:11:52,880
Speaker 3: get past Bogden Guskov. You're telling me you were not entertained.

1459
01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:56,040
Speaker 3: What does this mean for the former champion Yon moving forward?

1460
01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:03,360
Speaker 4: I mean, dude, they were literally saying on the broadcast

1461
01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:06,599
Speaker 4: that he can't lift weights much anymore in camp because

1462
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 4: of his shoulder injury. And I'm like, brother, if your

1463
01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:17,599
Speaker 4: shoulder can't tolerate even moderate weight training, your time's almost up,

1464
01:12:18,080 --> 01:12:20,839
Speaker 4: you know, like your time's almost up. You can't be

1465
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:25,920
Speaker 4: that physically infirm and expect to be able to commit

1466
01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:28,559
Speaker 4: physically to the fight itself when you need to. If

1467
01:12:28,600 --> 01:12:34,280
Speaker 4: you have that kind of self imposed handicap as a consequence,

1468
01:12:34,320 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 4: like it just it doesn't it doesn't work. And the

1469
01:12:36,160 --> 01:12:38,200
Speaker 4: fact that he can't really seem to get right. You see,

1470
01:12:38,240 --> 01:12:39,640
Speaker 4: you can look at his fights that he's had this

1471
01:12:39,720 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 4: terrible streak on and you could say he should have

1472
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,320
Speaker 4: beaten Poeton, he should have beaten Olberg, and maybe, like

1473
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,719
Speaker 4: when I say should have, I mean like everything should

1474
01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:49,799
Speaker 4: have gone his way, you know, but they just didn't.

1475
01:12:49,840 --> 01:12:52,559
Speaker 4: And now they're accumulating, and now his body is failing,

1476
01:12:52,600 --> 01:12:55,840
Speaker 4: and now he's forty two. It's like he's not getting

1477
01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:57,759
Speaker 4: beat up in these fights. B see, he's not getting

1478
01:12:57,800 --> 01:12:59,679
Speaker 4: his ass whipped. You know, that's not really what's happening.

1479
01:12:59,720 --> 01:13:04,080
Speaker 4: But I think his best days are very inarguably he

1480
01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:06,679
Speaker 4: find him. If he's trying to go for another title run,

1481
01:13:06,760 --> 01:13:07,879
Speaker 4: he's wasting his time.

1482
01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:11,320
Speaker 3: And unfortunately for the division, if this fight was set

1483
01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,880
Speaker 3: up potentially to sort of pass the torch to Guskav

1484
01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:17,719
Speaker 3: as a new contender. The good news is he's four

1485
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:20,240
Speaker 3: to zero to one now since losing his UFC debut

1486
01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 3: to Volcanosamir. The bad news is he didn't look like

1487
01:13:23,280 --> 01:13:25,479
Speaker 3: a title contender in the performance. Is that too harsh

1488
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:25,800
Speaker 3: to say?

1489
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:28,360
Speaker 4: I mean, no heavyweight sucks ass.

1490
01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:30,720
Speaker 3: That's the true fact. Yeah, I want all the light

1491
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:32,599
Speaker 3: heavyweights to just go up to heavyweight anyway. Let's just

1492
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:34,240
Speaker 3: we'll just pause the division right now.

1493
01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:36,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, just get rid of it and have them fight

1494
01:13:36,160 --> 01:13:37,840
Speaker 4: the big old fat fox all right.

1495
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:40,000
Speaker 3: Before we get into the rest of the UFC three

1496
01:13:40,040 --> 01:13:42,920

1535

Speaker 3: for Kilo.

1538
01:15:53,760 --> 01:15:57,640
Speaker 4: I did not. That's a very funny show, but I

1539
01:15:57,680 --> 01:15:59,360
Speaker 4: try not to listen to Dana White if I don't

1540
01:15:59,400 --> 01:16:00,880
Speaker 4: have to. There we go.

1541
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:03,200
Speaker 3: Okay, let's go to topic number four. On the prelims

1542
01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:07,200
Speaker 3: of UFC three twenty three. There were seven finishes, five

1543
01:16:07,720 --> 01:16:11,880
Speaker 3: by Ko t KO, two by submission. Luke Thomas, pick

1544
01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:15,440
Speaker 3: off the menu your choice. What was the most impressive

1545
01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:20,000
Speaker 3: or maybe even most important victory from the prelims, which

1546
01:16:20,000 --> 01:16:22,000
Speaker 3: featured a ton of names on Saturday Night?

1547
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:26,320
Speaker 4: All Right, gotta give big shouts, big shouts. I mean,

1548
01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:30,040
Speaker 4: it's not the very best of MMA, but it's some

1549
01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:33,960
Speaker 4: ways the very best of MMA. I'm sure I'm saying

1550
01:16:34,000 --> 01:16:38,000
Speaker 4: these names wrong. Ewo Barnef's Barnefski Barnef. I don't know

1551
01:16:38,000 --> 01:16:40,759
Speaker 4: how you say his name, the Polish gentleman versus Ebo

1552
01:16:40,840 --> 01:16:44,040
Speaker 4: Oslon ninety seconds BC of the crack pipe, That's what

1553
01:16:44,120 --> 01:16:46,880
Speaker 4: that was. That was Hunter Biden coming over with a

1554
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:49,439
Speaker 4: big old rock and he was like, I cooked up

1555
01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:51,679
Speaker 4: this rock. Let's smoke this shit, and I want to laptop.

1556
01:16:51,880 --> 01:16:53,479
Speaker 3: The Russians gave him luke.

1557
01:16:53,400 --> 01:16:56,280
Speaker 4: You know, yeah, probably, so that was just ninety seconds

1558
01:16:56,280 --> 01:16:57,960
Speaker 4: on the hit of the crack pipe. It was phenomenal,

1559
01:16:57,960 --> 01:16:59,800
Speaker 4: but they were not the only ones. They were offering

1560
01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:03,320
Speaker 4: you something like that, as Chris Duncan defeating Terrence McKinney

1561
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:05,679
Speaker 4: with the end of condom on halfway into the first round.

1562
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:08,599
Speaker 3: Yet or get god, it's the Terrence McKinney way, right.

1563
01:17:08,600 --> 01:17:10,599
Speaker 4: That's it. It's it's I mean again, we called him

1564
01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:12,760
Speaker 4: the evil Canevel of Mma. Brother. He shot out of

1565
01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:14,880
Speaker 4: a cannon. Either you're ready for it or you're not.

1566
01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,799
Speaker 4: That's the way he fights. It's just he's just guaranteed excitement.

1567
01:17:18,800 --> 01:17:21,360
Speaker 4: But I have to say, Bce, you know, there's a

1568
01:17:21,400 --> 01:17:23,759
Speaker 4: bunch of directions you can go. I think most people

1569
01:17:23,760 --> 01:17:26,479
Speaker 4: are gonna spotlight Macy Barber having a pretty great performance

1570
01:17:26,479 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 4: against Karine Silva. I was moved Okay, well I'll let

1571
01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:31,920
Speaker 4: you go then, because she got kicked twice while she

1572
01:17:32,080 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 4: was down. What would move to you about it?

1573
01:17:34,040 --> 01:17:37,479
Speaker 3: Twenty one months away riding a what six fight win streak.

1574
01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:40,200
Speaker 3: We'd sort of been waiting for her through scheduled fights

1575
01:17:40,240 --> 01:17:43,800
Speaker 3: against Blanchefield nama Unis that never took place. She had

1576
01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:46,360
Speaker 3: a seizure and fainted trying to cut wait last time

1577
01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:50,360
Speaker 3: she's had undiagnosed issues, injuries, and to put it all

1578
01:17:50,400 --> 01:17:53,960
Speaker 3: together against a tough opponent in Karine Silva and get

1579
01:17:53,960 --> 01:17:58,160
Speaker 3: that type of victory. She was emotional afterwards. Look this,

1580
01:17:58,360 --> 01:17:59,880
Speaker 3: I was starting to believe she was never gonna be

1581
01:17:59,920 --> 01:18:01,720
Speaker 3: the I think a lot of us were, so to

1582
01:18:01,760 --> 01:18:05,400
Speaker 3: see her score this victory and slay those demons, it

1583
01:18:05,840 --> 01:18:06,400
Speaker 3: felt good.

1584
01:18:06,560 --> 01:18:06,840
Speaker 2: All right.

1585
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:08,960
Speaker 3: I've never been a huge fan of her, you know,

1586
01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:12,320
Speaker 3: stick or whatever, but like she's proving to be a

1587
01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:15,639
Speaker 3: legitimate fighter in this division. I had wondered what all

1588
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:18,080
Speaker 3: that time off and all those physical setbacks would do.

1589
01:18:18,800 --> 01:18:20,680
Speaker 3: Did you not get the feeling like she's all the

1590
01:18:20,680 --> 01:18:21,200
Speaker 3: way back.

1591
01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:25,559
Speaker 4: She's not all the way back until she can put

1592
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:29,800
Speaker 4: together a streak and I mean like consistent activity. Okay,

1593
01:18:29,880 --> 01:18:32,160
Speaker 4: where we're not having these derailed episodes. I'm not that

1594
01:18:32,160 --> 01:18:33,960
Speaker 4: I'm blaming her. I'm just saying that's what has to happen.

1595
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:36,600
Speaker 4: But this certainly was I mean, what could you call it?

1596
01:18:36,640 --> 01:18:38,479
Speaker 4: You see a step in the right direction, A big one,

1597
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:41,200
Speaker 4: it was. It was really great to see. I gotta

1598
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:45,880
Speaker 4: go Jaalen Turner. Jalen Turner, Yeah, retires from the sport.

1599
01:18:46,160 --> 01:18:48,719
Speaker 4: Looks like he's completely done with it, comes back. Okay,

1600
01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:50,920
Speaker 4: you're gonna say he's fighting a washed Barbosa. He is,

1601
01:18:51,640 --> 01:18:55,680
Speaker 4: but he looked awesome doing it. He found his range immediately,

1602
01:18:55,720 --> 01:18:58,760
Speaker 4: he had vicious weapons. He beat the shit out of

1603
01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:02,599
Speaker 4: Barbosa very quickly. Lee without mercy, which is exactly what

1604
01:19:02,640 --> 01:19:05,679
Speaker 4: you want in the sport, but with but with technical precision.

1605
01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:08,519
Speaker 4: That was such a big Using about triumphant returns, we

1606
01:19:08,560 --> 01:19:11,599
Speaker 4: see that was a great one itself. Also not for nothing.

1607
01:19:11,640 --> 01:19:16,080
Speaker 4: Mansor abdul Malik. Okay, Antonio Tricoli might be one of

1608
01:19:16,120 --> 01:19:17,800
Speaker 4: the worst fighters in UFC history. I'm not even doing

1609
01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:19,080
Speaker 4: a bit with that, like that might be real.

1610
01:19:19,200 --> 01:19:21,160
Speaker 3: The champions ex boyfriend you're talking.

1611
01:19:20,920 --> 01:19:23,479
Speaker 4: About, all right, yeah, fair enough. But Mansor Abdul Malik,

1612
01:19:23,560 --> 01:19:26,920
Speaker 4: who wrestled, if think at the University of Maryland smoked him,

1613
01:19:27,439 --> 01:19:29,280
Speaker 4: so that was fun to see as well. But there's

1614
01:19:29,280 --> 01:19:31,040
Speaker 4: a dude, you can go Manual Torres in the main

1615
01:19:31,439 --> 01:19:34,759
Speaker 4: Long Island Luke your standout on the prelim car.

1616
01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:36,960
Speaker 5: I mean, now that you named every fight I got,

1617
01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:39,760
Speaker 5: e WO versus EBO is the clear giveaway here. That

1618
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:41,519
Speaker 5: was the best round of the year and it was

1619
01:19:41,560 --> 01:19:44,559
Speaker 5: only ninety seconds. Uh, what's the only fight we didn't mention?

1620
01:19:44,600 --> 01:19:47,240
Speaker 5: Bruno Fajeda Marvin Vittoria was probably the worst fight on

1621
01:19:47,280 --> 01:19:51,840
Speaker 5: the prelims, but it was actually still the dude that Yeah. Yeah,

1622
01:19:51,840 --> 01:19:54,400
Speaker 5: he also killed two and oh against Sarah Longo, beating

1623
01:19:54,439 --> 01:19:55,559
Speaker 5: his eam Saidikov too.

1624
01:19:55,600 --> 01:19:58,280
Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, dude, the prelims were fun as hell.

1625
01:19:58,880 --> 01:20:02,320
Speaker 5: The last two fights the main for me from fandom standpoint,

1626
01:20:02,479 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 5: just killed it for me.

1627
01:20:03,439 --> 01:20:05,880
Speaker 6: But the card was really fun up until that point.

1628
01:20:05,960 --> 01:20:06,160
Speaker 4: For me.

1629
01:20:06,320 --> 01:20:09,080
Speaker 3: Is Grant Dawson done being relevant? I mean that was

1630
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:09,759
Speaker 3: a tough loss.

1631
01:20:10,560 --> 01:20:12,360
Speaker 4: That was a bad one. I mean his problem is

1632
01:20:12,400 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 4: he's obviously great at grappling. He's great from the back.

1633
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:17,960
Speaker 4: He can put you through the cycle, but the parts

1634
01:20:18,000 --> 01:20:20,120
Speaker 4: of the game leading up to that just are not

1635
01:20:20,200 --> 01:20:22,160
Speaker 4: where they need to be a win consistently at a

1636
01:20:22,200 --> 01:20:24,639
Speaker 4: high level in the sport. I mean, I'm not trying

1637
01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:25,920
Speaker 4: to be a dick. He seems like a great guy,

1638
01:20:26,000 --> 01:20:30,160
Speaker 4: but it's tough. It's tough. And also Torres was had

1639
01:20:30,160 --> 01:20:32,240
Speaker 4: a good game plan right they were talking about on

1640
01:20:32,280 --> 01:20:35,400
Speaker 4: the broadcast, real patient, took his time and when it

1641
01:20:35,439 --> 01:20:37,519
Speaker 4: was time to go box them up.

1642
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:39,600
Speaker 3: I like the depth on this card. I like the

1643
01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:42,080
Speaker 3: excitement early on some stories that we talked about. We

1644
01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:44,479
Speaker 3: do have some sound from Macy Barber here about the

1645
01:20:44,560 --> 01:20:46,720
Speaker 3: comeback journey, and I hope she gets a huge fight

1646
01:20:46,760 --> 01:20:47,600
Speaker 3: off of this. Let's hear it.

1647
01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:49,280
Speaker 4: Congratulations on the win.

1648
01:20:49,400 --> 01:20:51,720
Speaker 14: But I guess how can you put into words what

1649
01:20:51,720 --> 01:20:54,040
Speaker 14: you're feeling right now after you know, twenty one months

1650
01:20:54,040 --> 01:20:55,360
Speaker 14: of not being able to do this.

1651
01:20:58,560 --> 01:21:02,320
Speaker 15: I don't know if I have all the words. Honestly, it's.

1652
01:21:04,240 --> 01:21:06,519
Speaker 14: Yeah, there's it's.

1653
01:21:06,320 --> 01:21:08,840
Speaker 15: Been so long. I don't know if there's a lot

1654
01:21:08,880 --> 01:21:11,320
Speaker 15: of words to put into that much time.

1655
01:21:13,120 --> 01:21:15,320
Speaker 14: A lot of fans and even media were saying, you know,

1656
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:18,519
Speaker 14: the second Macy even enters the octagon, that's the wind.

1657
01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:21,280
Speaker 14: Did you were you viewing it that way too? Or

1658
01:21:21,280 --> 01:21:22,760
Speaker 14: are you just viewing this as like, all right, we're

1659
01:21:22,800 --> 01:21:25,280
Speaker 14: past that part. Like I'm just here to do to

1660
01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,040
Speaker 14: fight and do what I like again.

1661
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:35,240
Speaker 15: Damn now you made me crunched. Sure, yeah, I think

1662
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:38,520
Speaker 15: that was the wind. I think that that was exactly

1663
01:21:38,560 --> 01:21:42,599
Speaker 15: what I I think that that's exactly how I kind

1664
01:21:42,600 --> 01:21:47,120
Speaker 15: of felt. You know, even in the interview with Joe,

1665
01:21:47,160 --> 01:21:49,080
Speaker 15: I was like, you know, I'm just really happy to

1666
01:21:49,080 --> 01:21:53,120
Speaker 15: be here. I'm just really blessed to just walk out do.

1667
01:21:53,120 --> 01:21:53,559
Speaker 8: What I love.

1668
01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:55,640
Speaker 15: I mean, yes, when the when I was walking out,

1669
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:57,040
Speaker 15: I mean at the end of the day, like this

1670
01:21:57,200 --> 01:22:00,040
Speaker 15: is a job that I have. There's another one and

1671
01:22:00,120 --> 01:22:02,559
Speaker 15: standing in front of me, and I have to I

1672
01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:04,120
Speaker 15: have a goal and a dream, you know that I

1673
01:22:04,560 --> 01:22:08,800
Speaker 15: am chasing and she's in my way. There's nothing that

1674
01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:10,640
Speaker 15: is going to get in the way of that. But

1675
01:22:10,680 --> 01:22:13,840
Speaker 15: at the same time, there is a girl inside of

1676
01:22:13,880 --> 01:22:17,679
Speaker 15: me that just loves to go in there and chase

1677
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:18,360
Speaker 15: a dream too.

1678
01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:22,200
Speaker 3: You know, good stuff there for Macy Barbara. By the way,

1679
01:22:22,280 --> 01:22:24,920
Speaker 3: jose Young's in the same two week period making me rage,

1680
01:22:25,000 --> 01:22:26,960
Speaker 3: quit and making women cry. This guy's just on a

1681
01:22:27,040 --> 01:22:32,160
Speaker 3: run right now, just an all timer of a run. Luke,

1682
01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:34,160
Speaker 3: We've got a bunch of announcements to go through as

1683
01:22:34,160 --> 01:22:37,080
Speaker 3: the UFC was busy with one of those seasonal press

1684
01:22:37,120 --> 01:22:40,280
Speaker 3: conferences on Friday, along with continuing to fill out this

1685
01:22:40,479 --> 01:22:44,040
Speaker 3: schedule for the new Era, which begins January twenty fourth

1686
01:22:44,040 --> 01:22:46,759
Speaker 3: with the UFC three twenty four pay per view. Before

1687
01:22:46,800 --> 01:22:49,680
Speaker 3: we do that, though, Dana, you know, finally met with

1688
01:22:49,720 --> 01:22:51,799
Speaker 3: the media. He didn't host any of these press conferences

1689
01:22:51,880 --> 01:22:54,719
Speaker 3: during the week. He was there for the postfight press conference,

1690
01:22:54,760 --> 01:22:57,880
Speaker 3: so he was pressed on some important items, everything from

1691
01:22:57,920 --> 01:23:00,840
Speaker 3: the Aliac to what have you you. One of those

1692
01:23:00,880 --> 01:23:04,479
Speaker 3: items was the fallout for armand Saruki, and as we

1693
01:23:04,560 --> 01:23:07,160
Speaker 3: already know and have broken down, it will be an

1694
01:23:07,160 --> 01:23:10,800
Speaker 3: interim lightweight title fight kicking off the main event of

1695
01:23:10,840 --> 01:23:13,000
Speaker 3: the first pay per view of the UFC Paramount Era,

1696
01:23:13,520 --> 01:23:17,800
Speaker 3: as Iliot Taporious steps away with personal issues Patty versus

1697
01:23:19,400 --> 01:23:23,040
Speaker 3: Justin Gatchee. So, now what does that mean for armand

1698
01:23:23,120 --> 01:23:26,120
Speaker 3: is he's still persona no grado with the company. Here's

1699
01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:27,280
Speaker 3: Dana talking about it.

1700
01:23:27,800 --> 01:23:29,639
Speaker 4: Armansrukin obviously the odd man out.

1701
01:23:29,640 --> 01:23:32,599
Speaker 13: Now we expect Ilia to be unifying against the interim

1702
01:23:32,680 --> 01:23:35,040
Speaker 13: title winner, which would take a long run.

1703
01:23:35,320 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 4: I wouldn't say that he's the odd man out.

1704
01:23:37,280 --> 01:23:40,559
Speaker 12: You know, he had an opportunity and you guys know

1705
01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:43,280
Speaker 12: how that played out, and he's gonna have to he's

1706
01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:45,320
Speaker 12: gonna have to work his way back. I'll give a

1707
01:23:45,320 --> 01:23:47,639
Speaker 12: shit what the number says. He's gonna have to work

1708
01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:50,280
Speaker 12: his way back. And just too much goes into this

1709
01:23:51,840 --> 01:23:54,360
Speaker 12: for those type of things to happen. You know, we

1710
01:23:54,720 --> 01:23:58,160
Speaker 12: were had, we had a little uh we're talking back

1711
01:23:58,680 --> 01:24:01,080
Speaker 12: in my room tonight and we're talking about, you know,

1712
01:24:01,080 --> 01:24:04,040
Speaker 12: all the crazy shit that's happened over the last twenty

1713
01:24:04,080 --> 01:24:08,800
Speaker 12: something years. But you can't do that, you can't get

1714
01:24:08,840 --> 01:24:13,320
Speaker 12: the opportunity and then it can't end that way.

1715
01:24:13,479 --> 01:24:15,719
Speaker 4: So he's got to work his way back.

1716
01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:18,720
Speaker 3: Look, I don't like that at all.

1717
01:24:19,080 --> 01:24:20,719
Speaker 4: Can I just say something? Can I just say something?

1718
01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:26,479
Speaker 4: I was on that hearing on Capitol Hill, and I

1719
01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:30,880
Speaker 4: watched all of the accompanying media that Nick khn did,

1720
01:24:31,439 --> 01:24:33,880
Speaker 4: whether it was on with Max Kellerman on the Pro

1721
01:24:33,920 --> 01:24:39,160
Speaker 4: Saudi Boxing Show, or whether it was pro corporate Monopoly

1722
01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:44,080
Speaker 4: Pat McAfee show, whatever, whether they're they're just they'll they'll

1723
01:24:44,080 --> 01:24:48,400
Speaker 4: say anything for a dollar, right, I mean, I'm talking

1724
01:24:48,439 --> 01:24:52,599
Speaker 4: about Max and Pat McAfee, and then Nick kN gets

1725
01:24:52,640 --> 01:25:00,439
Speaker 4: on these shows and is absolutely explicit, explicit that the

1726
01:25:00,600 --> 01:25:04,720
Speaker 4: aim of ZUFA Boxing is to have and this is

1727
01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:07,360
Speaker 4: his words. For example, on the Pat McAfee show, the

1728
01:25:07,439 --> 01:25:09,240
Speaker 4: champion is going to fight the number one contender. If

1729
01:25:09,240 --> 01:25:10,880
Speaker 4: the number one contender is not already, he'll fight the

1730
01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:15,519
Speaker 4: number two contender, just like it is in UFC. Lawrence Epstein,

1731
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:19,120
Speaker 4: who is the chief operating officer of the UFC, said

1732
01:25:19,160 --> 01:25:22,760
Speaker 4: something virtually identical on Capitol Hill in some of the

1733
01:25:22,760 --> 01:25:25,080
Speaker 4: remarks that he gave, and then Dana White goes out

1734
01:25:25,080 --> 01:25:31,800
Speaker 4: there and says the exact contradictory, complete and unambiguous opposite

1735
01:25:31,840 --> 01:25:35,479
Speaker 4: of that that he just doesn't care about the rankings.

1736
01:25:35,520 --> 01:25:39,639
Speaker 4: They will literally say anything to any audience about this

1737
01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,920
Speaker 4: as long as it is either satisfying some demand or

1738
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:47,639
Speaker 4: meeting some other need. But their story about what their

1739
01:25:47,680 --> 01:25:51,280
Speaker 4: plan to do is at a bare minimum inconsistent. It

1740
01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:54,280
Speaker 4: is fucking crazy to me that all last week the

1741
01:25:54,320 --> 01:25:57,759
Speaker 4: story from every executive in that company was the exact

1742
01:25:58,040 --> 01:25:59,479
Speaker 4: opposite of this.

1743
01:26:00,160 --> 01:26:05,679
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's indefensible, especially with the Vulk versus Diego

1744
01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:08,639
Speaker 3: Lopez rematch that'll be UFC three twenty five. The week

1745
01:26:08,760 --> 01:26:11,479
Speaker 3: after literally the weekend after three twenty four, so we'll

1746
01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:13,720
Speaker 3: get back to back PL's in the new era. But

1747
01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:17,200
Speaker 3: I agree with you, it's it feels petty. I mean, look,

1748
01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:19,919
Speaker 3: was it because UFC three eleven was at that Clippers

1749
01:26:19,960 --> 01:26:22,800
Speaker 3: Arena and it was supposed to be this like very

1750
01:26:22,840 --> 01:26:25,880
Speaker 3: big deal. I don't know who famous was supposed to

1751
01:26:25,920 --> 01:26:29,000
Speaker 3: be their cage side, you know. Uh in terms of

1752
01:26:29,080 --> 01:26:31,479
Speaker 3: like did that let him and the company down? That

1753
01:26:31,760 --> 01:26:33,559
Speaker 3: sar you Can pulled out? I mean people have done

1754
01:26:33,560 --> 01:26:36,639
Speaker 3: that before. Famously, Amanda Nunez couldn't make weight for the

1755
01:26:36,720 --> 01:26:41,080
Speaker 3: initially scheduled Chifchenko rematch and Dana said she'd never headline again.

1756
01:26:41,120 --> 01:26:44,360
Speaker 3: And you know she won back that reputation. But is

1757
01:26:44,439 --> 01:26:47,439
Speaker 3: this just you pulled out of the wrong card at

1758
01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,640
Speaker 3: the wrong time, or is it even deeper? Does it

1759
01:26:50,720 --> 01:26:53,559
Speaker 3: have to play into the fact that saryu Can isn't

1760
01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:56,160
Speaker 3: motivated by the need for money that it makes does

1761
01:26:56,160 --> 01:26:58,080
Speaker 3: it make it a tougher negotiation? I mean, what is

1762
01:26:58,160 --> 01:27:02,960
Speaker 3: like the deeper transgression? Is it just you had a

1763
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:04,880
Speaker 3: title fight and you didn't make it to the to

1764
01:27:04,920 --> 01:27:06,439
Speaker 3: the to the cage as that is?

1765
01:27:06,479 --> 01:27:08,280
Speaker 4: So, so that's that's the interesting part to me BC.

1766
01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:10,479
Speaker 4: I was talking about this long hand Luke before the show.

1767
01:27:11,240 --> 01:27:13,599
Speaker 4: If it's that he had a late injury due to

1768
01:27:13,720 --> 01:27:17,120
Speaker 4: some kind of accident from uh, you know, the day

1769
01:27:17,160 --> 01:27:20,519
Speaker 4: before fight Prepper, two days before whatever it was, you know,

1770
01:27:21,720 --> 01:27:24,080
Speaker 4: why would they punish him so severely.

1771
01:27:24,560 --> 01:27:27,160
Speaker 3: Like Tamayav did not get punished or talked about about

1772
01:27:27,240 --> 01:27:30,400
Speaker 3: at all for missing weight by seven pounds against.

1773
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:32,800
Speaker 4: It doesn't make any sense, like why would you go

1774
01:27:32,840 --> 01:27:35,280
Speaker 4: after it. I understand that they would be pissed that

1775
01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:37,840
Speaker 4: something fell apart at the last minute for them, and

1776
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:39,639
Speaker 4: that maybe they thought he was a little bit reckless

1777
01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:41,759
Speaker 4: about it, because remember he did punch a fan one time,

1778
01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:45,639
Speaker 4: and like he remember he headbutted Dan Hooker. He's done some.

1779
01:27:46,560 --> 01:27:48,880
Speaker 3: Punch The fan thing is is a thing, that's a thing.

1780
01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:51,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, I mean he's done some boneheaded, stupid shit.

1781
01:27:52,280 --> 01:27:54,639
Speaker 4: But he lost on that opportunity. He had to make

1782
01:27:54,680 --> 01:27:56,840
Speaker 4: weight for one fight and then he just headlined the

1783
01:27:57,160 --> 01:28:00,000
Speaker 4: guitar fight against Dan Hooker. My question is, if you're

1784
01:28:00,160 --> 01:28:04,280
Speaker 4: mad at him, cool, what is the punishment because just

1785
01:28:04,400 --> 01:28:09,400
Speaker 4: sidelining him outside of the rankings makes every single thing

1786
01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:14,360
Speaker 4: you are telling lawmakers a total lie. So which is

1787
01:28:14,400 --> 01:28:17,599
Speaker 4: it which is it? Like, like I asked this after

1788
01:28:17,640 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 4: the guitar thing, b see if we're mad at him, Okay,

1789
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:24,080
Speaker 4: we're mad at him, When is the punishment over? What

1790
01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:26,599
Speaker 4: does that look like? Set the map for me? Because

1791
01:28:26,640 --> 01:28:30,479
Speaker 4: if it's just he suffered a freak injury, you know, late,

1792
01:28:30,520 --> 01:28:33,240
Speaker 4: while that is unfortunate, that the level of punishment here

1793
01:28:33,800 --> 01:28:36,040
Speaker 4: just seems to be onerous relative to that. Is there

1794
01:28:36,080 --> 01:28:38,679
Speaker 4: more to the story that we do not know? That's

1795
01:28:38,720 --> 01:28:39,839
Speaker 4: the part I'm trying to figure.

1796
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:41,400
Speaker 3: Out o the way that he handled it. Do they

1797
01:28:41,439 --> 01:28:45,519
Speaker 3: not believe that he had any physical issues? Again, I

1798
01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,160
Speaker 3: don't know. If I'm like, was that a certain close

1799
01:28:48,240 --> 01:28:49,800
Speaker 3: up card where they were going to have like the

1800
01:28:49,800 --> 01:28:51,880
Speaker 3: paramount execs case. I don't know. I'm thinking, like, what

1801
01:28:52,120 --> 01:28:54,400
Speaker 3: was it that made him so angry? Either way? So

1802
01:28:54,479 --> 01:28:56,320
Speaker 3: are you caking out of the mix for a bit?

1803
01:28:56,920 --> 01:28:59,320
Speaker 3: We did get at that pre seasonal press conference both

1804
01:28:59,400 --> 01:29:02,960
Speaker 3: Patty and Gaichee saying that they thought they were each

1805
01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:06,559
Speaker 3: of them thought they were fighting Ilia basically up until

1806
01:29:06,560 --> 01:29:08,840
Speaker 3: the announcement was made that they would instead be fighting

1807
01:29:08,880 --> 01:29:11,679
Speaker 3: each other. So it did feel like Sarayuki in despite

1808
01:29:11,960 --> 01:29:15,320
Speaker 3: that big win against Hooker, despite the call out afterwards

1809
01:29:15,320 --> 01:29:17,160
Speaker 3: where he was ready to turn around on two months

1810
01:29:17,320 --> 01:29:21,000
Speaker 3: that he was never in that equation, so that won't happen.

1811
01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:23,439
Speaker 3: We do know though, as they filled out more of

1812
01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:26,080
Speaker 3: the three twenty four card and now the main event

1813
01:29:26,240 --> 01:29:29,280
Speaker 3: of the UFC three twenty six card, because three twenty

1814
01:29:29,280 --> 01:29:33,559
Speaker 3: five will be Volk versus Lopez. But how about all

1815
01:29:33,600 --> 01:29:36,920
Speaker 3: the way into March for UFC three twenty six in

1816
01:29:37,040 --> 01:29:41,120
Speaker 3: Las Vegas March seventh, a rematch for the BMF title

1817
01:29:41,640 --> 01:29:45,720
Speaker 3: Charles do bronx Olavera against the current belt holder, Max Holloway.

1818
01:29:45,960 --> 01:29:49,280
Speaker 3: Luke got popped for this. I'm down for it. I

1819
01:29:49,439 --> 01:29:51,080
Speaker 3: love that every once in a while we can have

1820
01:29:51,120 --> 01:29:54,120
Speaker 3: a pay per view main event that doesn't necessarily need

1821
01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:57,080
Speaker 3: to be a traditional title fight, that could be just

1822
01:29:57,160 --> 01:30:00,000
Speaker 3: two great names that you want to see against each

1823
01:30:00,240 --> 01:30:02,120
Speaker 3: and in this case, against each other again because the

1824
01:30:02,120 --> 01:30:05,280
Speaker 3: first one had that weird injury ending so long ago.

1825
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:08,680
Speaker 3: I did see some people upset at it, not loving it.

1826
01:30:08,720 --> 01:30:10,679
Speaker 3: Where do you fall in this? I'm more than fine

1827
01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:11,040
Speaker 3: with this.

1828
01:30:11,439 --> 01:30:14,559
Speaker 4: I'm fine with this. Yeah, this is totally fine. Everyone's

1829
01:30:14,560 --> 01:30:16,840
Speaker 4: gonna say, oh, the titles made up. All the titles

1830
01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:19,479
Speaker 4: are made up. I mean, some are more clearly defined

1831
01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:22,599
Speaker 4: than other ones. But this is a great fight. It's

1832
01:30:22,600 --> 01:30:26,960
Speaker 4: a great rematch. Especially we all know, Hey, everyone wants

1833
01:30:27,000 --> 01:30:30,240
Speaker 4: that White House car to be big. Well, if you

1834
01:30:30,320 --> 01:30:32,479
Speaker 4: want that fight house at the excuse me, if you

1835
01:30:32,479 --> 01:30:34,679
Speaker 4: want that fight at the White House BC to be big,

1836
01:30:35,240 --> 01:30:38,960
Speaker 4: you got to make some sacrifices on events before and after. Now, listen,

1837
01:30:39,000 --> 01:30:40,479
Speaker 4: we should actually talk about that for just a second,

1838
01:30:40,520 --> 01:30:44,680
Speaker 4: b C. Because it is relevant. I don't think it's

1839
01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:46,920
Speaker 4: necessarily political to say that the President of the United

1840
01:30:46,920 --> 01:30:49,479
Speaker 4: States says a lot of things, and sometimes they are

1841
01:30:49,520 --> 01:30:52,320
Speaker 4: true and sometimes they are not. He said that today

1842
01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:57,360
Speaker 4: or YESTERDAYBC, that there he's expecting eight or nine fights

1843
01:30:57,479 --> 01:31:01,280
Speaker 4: that are title fights at the White House card, which,

1844
01:31:01,320 --> 01:31:03,759
Speaker 4: if you do the math, would be all the men's

1845
01:31:03,760 --> 01:31:06,760
Speaker 4: divisions and one or two of the women's divisions. Now,

1846
01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:10,600
Speaker 4: that sounds like he's got that. Just that seems like

1847
01:31:10,640 --> 01:31:13,360
Speaker 4: a lot, right, I don't know if that's correct, That

1848
01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:16,080
Speaker 4: that would that would just kill your schedule on either

1849
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:18,840
Speaker 4: side of these, and they've got forty three events to deliver.

1850
01:31:19,280 --> 01:31:22,639
Speaker 4: That being said, you know you're probably gonna get three,

1851
01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:25,479
Speaker 4: maybe four title fights, hell, maybe even five, right, you

1852
01:31:25,520 --> 01:31:28,280
Speaker 4: could potentially get a whole main card of them, which

1853
01:31:28,320 --> 01:31:31,559
Speaker 4: means BMF fights are gonna have to be headliners to

1854
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:34,120
Speaker 4: make that kind of thing possible. So my response to

1855
01:31:34,160 --> 01:31:36,599
Speaker 4: fans would be, just, you know, make sure you understand

1856
01:31:36,640 --> 01:31:38,960
Speaker 4: what you want. If you all want a big white

1857
01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:42,559
Speaker 4: House card, that's a grand, you know, festival, and given

1858
01:31:42,600 --> 01:31:45,160
Speaker 4: what the President is potentially saying about it, you're gonna

1859
01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:48,000
Speaker 4: have to make some sacrifices on the front end, back end. Yeah.

1860
01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:50,200
Speaker 3: I like the fights that they've added up and down

1861
01:31:50,200 --> 01:31:53,040
Speaker 3: the UFC three twenty four to make that first opening

1862
01:31:53,080 --> 01:31:55,639
Speaker 3: card even deeper. I think it's gonna hit hard. Let's

1863
01:31:55,680 --> 01:31:58,240
Speaker 3: look at what three twenty five got announced below that

1864
01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:02,280
Speaker 3: Vulk versus Lopez, quick turnaround, Dan Hooker in what can

1865
01:32:02,280 --> 01:32:05,439
Speaker 3: only hate that? Yeah, I don't love it either against

1866
01:32:05,479 --> 01:32:08,680
Speaker 3: ben Wa Saint Denis. You've got we'll talk about that

1867
01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:11,360
Speaker 3: in a second. You've got Physive against Mauricio Hoofi, who

1868
01:32:11,360 --> 01:32:13,559
Speaker 3: needs to come back with a big performance. This should

1869
01:32:13,560 --> 01:32:17,320
Speaker 3: be sloppy and fun at heavyweight to Ivasa against what's that?

1870
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:21,480
Speaker 3: What's talis In Tashera and then Jimmy Crue, Dustin Jacoby

1871
01:32:21,840 --> 01:32:24,080
Speaker 3: and oh the the new Australian guy.

1872
01:32:24,160 --> 01:32:27,760
Speaker 4: Was it Quinn Salkil, Yeah, Quillen Salkill versus wrong Zoo.

1873
01:32:28,800 --> 01:32:31,080
Speaker 3: So there's some bangers on this one. But Luke, I

1874
01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:33,280
Speaker 3: agree with you. It feels too much, too soon for

1875
01:32:33,360 --> 01:32:36,680
Speaker 3: Hooker who was just stopped by Armin Sarukin and kind

1876
01:32:36,680 --> 01:32:38,720
Speaker 3: of dominated. What gives here?

1877
01:32:39,680 --> 01:32:41,400
Speaker 4: I hate this? I mean, well, okay, I don't hate

1878
01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:44,120
Speaker 4: the fight as such, right, it's a oh Dan Hooker

1879
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:48,800
Speaker 4: uh bsd Okay, Well that's violence. That's that's gonna be great. Dude,

1880
01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:50,840
Speaker 4: Dan Hooker just got the ship beating out of him.

1881
01:32:50,840 --> 01:32:53,280
Speaker 4: His face was all fucked up. How is he back

1882
01:32:53,320 --> 01:32:54,840
Speaker 4: in camp for this kind of a fight that's not

1883
01:32:54,880 --> 01:32:58,400
Speaker 4: that far from now? Like, I don't love that. I

1884
01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:01,000
Speaker 4: don't love that. It's so quick on turnaround. It's not

1885
01:33:01,080 --> 01:33:04,160
Speaker 4: the quickest turnaround I've ever seen. But remember he's been

1886
01:33:04,240 --> 01:33:07,360
Speaker 4: maybe that Edsen Barbosa fight. There was controversy after Hooker's

1887
01:33:07,439 --> 01:33:10,240
Speaker 4: Edsen Barbosa fight because of how much damage he took

1888
01:33:10,280 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 4: and then the ref didn't intervene. Daniel Cormier was yelling

1889
01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:16,759
Speaker 4: at the ref essentially on the broadcast itself, quite rightly

1890
01:33:16,800 --> 01:33:19,519
Speaker 4: in my judgment, Like the dude has taken a metric

1891
01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:22,360
Speaker 4: ton of abuse. I don't love the turnaround here, to

1892
01:33:22,400 --> 01:33:24,920
Speaker 4: be honest with you, and it makes bsd's chances even greater.

1893
01:33:25,439 --> 01:33:27,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that Phaziv Hoofy fight bangs. I like a

1894
01:33:27,920 --> 01:33:31,120
Speaker 3: lot of the supporting fights. February there will be I believe,

1895
01:33:31,200 --> 01:33:35,400
Speaker 3: three UFC fight Night cards, no official pl slash pay

1896
01:33:35,400 --> 01:33:37,720
Speaker 3: per view because they're going back to back pay per

1897
01:33:37,840 --> 01:33:41,000
Speaker 3: view weekends to kick off the new paramount era. But

1898
01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:43,320
Speaker 3: one of those has a very good middleweight main event.

1899
01:33:43,360 --> 01:33:45,120
Speaker 3: I think we have a graphic to support it here

1900
01:33:45,320 --> 01:33:47,400
Speaker 3: as Fluffy Hernandez, who had to pull out of that

1901
01:33:47,560 --> 01:33:50,800
Speaker 3: RDR Number one contender fight, will come back quickly here

1902
01:33:51,080 --> 01:33:55,439
Speaker 3: against former champion Sean Strickland Luke Thomas. This division just

1903
01:33:55,520 --> 01:33:58,479
Speaker 3: recently was very bottlenecked. But do you feel like this

1904
01:33:58,479 --> 01:33:59,800
Speaker 3: could be a number one contender fight.

1905
01:34:01,360 --> 01:34:03,719
Speaker 4: I think it has to be. I mean, I guess

1906
01:34:04,080 --> 01:34:07,680
Speaker 4: Imovov is the guy, but to the winner of this,

1907
01:34:08,760 --> 01:34:11,360
Speaker 4: I mean even even Shamaiva was saying, well, he's Aakistani,

1908
01:34:11,360 --> 01:34:13,160
Speaker 4: I'm cheching and I'll fight him if I have to,

1909
01:34:13,760 --> 01:34:15,320
Speaker 4: But you know, got a lot of respect for him,

1910
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:17,280
Speaker 4: and they could cause a lot of tension and make

1911
01:34:17,360 --> 01:34:19,760
Speaker 4: things weird. It was essentially what he was saying, he

1912
01:34:19,800 --> 01:34:21,320
Speaker 4: doesn't want to, So I don't know what the us

1913
01:34:21,360 --> 01:34:23,320
Speaker 4: he's gonna do about that, But if they want, they

1914
01:34:23,360 --> 01:34:25,040
Speaker 4: can just slot the winner of this one in NBC,

1915
01:34:25,479 --> 01:34:27,240
Speaker 4: especially if it's Strickland and he could talk a gang

1916
01:34:27,280 --> 01:34:31,559
Speaker 4: of shit, you know. But at the same time, Fluffy

1917
01:34:31,640 --> 01:34:33,240
Speaker 4: is also a great fight, So like I feel like

1918
01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:35,639
Speaker 4: they're you know, this fight is a good fight. Would

1919
01:34:35,680 --> 01:34:38,360
Speaker 4: I'd rather have seen Fluffy? Actually, I'll tell you what, PC,

1920
01:34:39,040 --> 01:34:41,240
Speaker 4: given the state that RDR was in, I guess I

1921
01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:43,360
Speaker 4: really wouldn't have rather have seen that. I'm glad I

1922
01:34:43,400 --> 01:34:47,639
Speaker 4: get this one. You're gonna get Hernandez against ready to go,

1923
01:34:47,840 --> 01:34:51,440
Speaker 4: maybe maybe past prime, but ready to go Sean Strickland,

1924
01:34:51,439 --> 01:34:54,040
Speaker 4: who's got good takedown defense and usually pretty great cardio.

1925
01:34:54,760 --> 01:34:56,599
Speaker 4: This is a fun ass fight, that's a good fight,

1926
01:34:56,720 --> 01:34:58,360
Speaker 4: and that the winner of that one will be very

1927
01:34:58,439 --> 01:35:01,240
Speaker 4: much deserving of a big opportunit And.

1928
01:35:01,320 --> 01:35:02,800
Speaker 3: What said he will that take place in because Shawn

1929
01:35:02,840 --> 01:35:06,040
Speaker 3: strickens Houston. Okay, he originally said he turned down a

1930
01:35:06,120 --> 01:35:09,680
Speaker 3: chance to fight Fluffy in Australia, So they're gonna fight

1931
01:35:09,760 --> 01:35:12,280
Speaker 3: in Houston. Said, very good main event. Need to see

1932
01:35:12,280 --> 01:35:14,559
Speaker 3: Fluffy back and healthy and see whether he's ready to

1933
01:35:14,560 --> 01:35:17,280
Speaker 3: climb that ladder. And we'll see how long Chamaiya stays

1934
01:35:17,320 --> 01:35:19,560
Speaker 3: atop this division as he's flirting with They moved to

1935
01:35:19,600 --> 01:35:23,160
Speaker 3: two O five. Let's go to topic number five. It's boxing.

1936
01:35:23,200 --> 01:35:27,679
Speaker 3: It was a pay per view PBC Prime Video in

1937
01:35:27,720 --> 01:35:30,240
Speaker 3: San Antonio over the weekend. Your boy be Sizzle on

1938
01:35:30,439 --> 01:35:33,559
Speaker 3: the call and in the main event, the two gentlemen,

1939
01:35:33,840 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 3: the only two in boxing who have taken Tank Davis

1940
01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:38,920
Speaker 3: to the twelve round limit and both performed very well

1941
01:35:38,960 --> 01:35:42,200
Speaker 3: against him, fought one another as Tank continues to sit

1942
01:35:42,240 --> 01:35:45,200
Speaker 3: out with personal issues, although the results of this fight

1943
01:35:45,240 --> 01:35:49,240
Speaker 3: did seem to tease a comeback pretty soon. In the end,

1944
01:35:49,360 --> 01:35:52,280
Speaker 3: Lamont Roach Junior moved up to a new weight class

1945
01:35:52,520 --> 01:35:55,160
Speaker 3: for the for the third time in three fights. Here

1946
01:35:55,720 --> 01:35:57,800
Speaker 3: gave up his one hundred and thirty pounds title, took

1947
01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:01,639
Speaker 3: on eastac Pitbull Cruise the Mexican Star at one forty

1948
01:36:01,680 --> 01:36:03,080
Speaker 3: and by the way, Luke, you want to talk about

1949
01:36:03,120 --> 01:36:05,639
Speaker 3: pit Bull being in line to take the baton from

1950
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:10,000
Speaker 3: Canelo as the next most beloved Mexican star. That arena

1951
01:36:10,320 --> 01:36:13,920
Speaker 3: ten thousand people inside where the Spurs NBA Spurs play. Dude,

1952
01:36:13,920 --> 01:36:17,599
Speaker 3: that thing was electric, like you couldn't hear yourself think

1953
01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:21,719
Speaker 3: after he scored a third round knockdown. But despite knocking

1954
01:36:21,800 --> 01:36:24,559
Speaker 3: Roaches down for the first time in Lamont's career, the

1955
01:36:24,600 --> 01:36:27,480
Speaker 3: second half of the fight was much different. Lamont operated

1956
01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:33,280
Speaker 3: within Pitbull Cruise's preferred phone booth style and area and

1957
01:36:33,479 --> 01:36:36,639
Speaker 3: actually made the great pit Bull back up and circle away.

1958
01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:40,320
Speaker 3: In the end. However, I had scored the fight eight

1959
01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:43,400
Speaker 3: rounds to four in favor of Roach. The judges saw

1960
01:36:43,400 --> 01:36:47,480
Speaker 3: it differently, one judge scoring it by five points for Pitbull,

1961
01:36:47,840 --> 01:36:51,080
Speaker 3: two judges scoring it even one thirteen one to thirteen.

1962
01:36:51,360 --> 01:36:53,679
Speaker 3: Pitpull was docked to point in round eight for holding.

1963
01:36:53,920 --> 01:36:55,880
Speaker 3: He would go on to blame the draw on the

1964
01:36:55,920 --> 01:36:59,160
Speaker 3: referee afterwards, Luke, I do have to believe, though, the

1965
01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:02,080
Speaker 3: bigger story here is for Roach, who in a different

1966
01:37:02,240 --> 01:37:04,920
Speaker 3: reality could be your Fighter of the Year in twenty

1967
01:37:05,000 --> 01:37:08,200
Speaker 3: twenty five by doing what he did to Tank, doing

1968
01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:11,439
Speaker 3: what he did to Pitbull Cruise, making him back up

1969
01:37:11,520 --> 01:37:13,800
Speaker 3: out of his A game. Yet, can we run the

1970
01:37:13,840 --> 01:37:18,040
Speaker 3: tweet here from Dan Kenobio over twenty four rounds against

1971
01:37:18,080 --> 01:37:21,519
Speaker 3: two of the best fighters in these divisions, Lamont Roach

1972
01:37:21,640 --> 01:37:25,200
Speaker 3: did not get a single scorecard in his favor over

1973
01:37:25,240 --> 01:37:29,439
Speaker 3: two fights. He only has two draws to show for it. Luke,

1974
01:37:29,800 --> 01:37:32,240
Speaker 3: what does this say about Roach and what could have

1975
01:37:32,280 --> 01:37:35,200
Speaker 3: been his breakout year? That as good as we thought

1976
01:37:35,240 --> 01:37:37,200
Speaker 3: he fought, the judges still in the end didn't think

1977
01:37:37,200 --> 01:37:37,800
Speaker 3: he did enough.

1978
01:37:38,680 --> 01:37:42,599
Speaker 4: Man, this one was heartbreaking. Shouts to Lamont Roach, who,

1979
01:37:42,720 --> 01:37:46,040
Speaker 4: as you indicated overcame a third round knockdown, and I

1980
01:37:46,080 --> 01:37:48,960
Speaker 4: thought dominated down the stretch except for the twelfth round. BC.

1981
01:37:49,080 --> 01:37:51,160
Speaker 4: I thought Pitbull probably did enough to take the twelfth round,

1982
01:37:51,560 --> 01:37:55,600
Speaker 4: but I thought he got thoroughly out boxed, certainly in

1983
01:37:55,640 --> 01:37:57,719
Speaker 4: the second half of that fight, you know, and maybe

1984
01:37:57,760 --> 01:38:00,680
Speaker 4: the middle parts too. BC. I kind of go back

1985
01:38:00,680 --> 01:38:03,200
Speaker 4: to the same problem. It's like, Okay, is Lamont Roach

1986
01:38:03,280 --> 01:38:05,559
Speaker 4: good enough to be at one forty and give guys

1987
01:38:05,560 --> 01:38:09,600
Speaker 4: of their problems clearly? Clearly? Is he good enough to

1988
01:38:09,680 --> 01:38:11,920
Speaker 4: give guys problems at one thirty five? Again? He should

1989
01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:13,840
Speaker 4: have won that one outright because Tank took the knee.

1990
01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:16,000
Speaker 4: I mean, if for no other reason, he got job there.

1991
01:38:16,720 --> 01:38:19,280
Speaker 4: But like, I'm just not convinced these are places he

1992
01:38:19,360 --> 01:38:21,519
Speaker 4: should be in right now. I mean, I understand he's

1993
01:38:21,600 --> 01:38:25,559
Speaker 4: chasing big fights and big names and big opportunities, and

1994
01:38:26,040 --> 01:38:29,479
Speaker 4: he's done that, but it's come with you can say

1995
01:38:29,600 --> 01:38:33,679
Speaker 4: unfair but mixed results, it's come with you know, again,

1996
01:38:33,720 --> 01:38:35,960
Speaker 4: we can have a conversation about boxing judging, we can

1997
01:38:36,000 --> 01:38:39,240
Speaker 4: have a conversation about boxing officiating, particularly as related to

1998
01:38:39,240 --> 01:38:41,400
Speaker 4: the Tank fight, But at the same time, he just

1999
01:38:41,439 --> 01:38:44,400
Speaker 4: seems like at one thirty and maybe you think Shakur

2000
01:38:44,400 --> 01:38:46,479
Speaker 4: would be them, Maybe you think, Ohshaki Foster would beat

2001
01:38:46,520 --> 01:38:48,280
Speaker 4: them at one thirty BC, who also had a great

2002
01:38:48,280 --> 01:38:51,320
Speaker 4: performance on that main card. Maybe that's the case, but

2003
01:38:51,360 --> 01:38:54,120
Speaker 4: I just feel like those are fights where he's going

2004
01:38:54,200 --> 01:38:57,040
Speaker 4: to be not up against some of the circumstances where

2005
01:38:57,280 --> 01:39:00,200
Speaker 4: he doesn't have big power. He is a slickster. He

2006
01:39:00,240 --> 01:39:02,720
Speaker 4: can get the job done, but you know, not physically

2007
01:39:02,760 --> 01:39:07,040
Speaker 4: completely outmatched, but not physically maximized BC. I think that's

2008
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:09,200
Speaker 4: the kind of thing that's holding it up. It's not

2009
01:39:09,240 --> 01:39:12,040
Speaker 4: a question of skill, it's definitely not a question of will,

2010
01:39:12,479 --> 01:39:15,400
Speaker 4: but it might be a question of, you know, the

2011
01:39:15,439 --> 01:39:17,919
Speaker 4: sturdiness of what he's got to offer at these weight classes.

2012
01:39:18,080 --> 01:39:19,840
Speaker 4: You were ringsides, I'd be more curious to hear.

2013
01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:22,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to say, I do slightly disagree with that.

2014
01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:24,760
Speaker 3: I mean, look, I rewatched the Tank fight, which I

2015
01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:27,559
Speaker 3: also called you know a lot heading into this rematch,

2016
01:39:27,840 --> 01:39:29,559
Speaker 3: and I'll say each time I watched it, I was

2017
01:39:29,600 --> 01:39:32,479
Speaker 3: more and more impressed with what Roach did, because Tank

2018
01:39:32,520 --> 01:39:34,360
Speaker 3: came back in those middle rounds in five and six

2019
01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:36,360
Speaker 3: and put it on him and looked like he was

2020
01:39:36,360 --> 01:39:39,120
Speaker 3: on his way to doing something big, and Roach just

2021
01:39:39,160 --> 01:39:41,280
Speaker 3: stopped it. He stood in the middle, he took a

2022
01:39:41,280 --> 01:39:43,320
Speaker 3: big shot from Tank, countered with a bigger one that

2023
01:39:43,360 --> 01:39:45,559
Speaker 3: wobbled him, and they actually went at it for your

2024
01:39:45,560 --> 01:39:49,120
Speaker 3: few rounds after that. But in hindsight to that decision,

2025
01:39:49,560 --> 01:39:51,840
Speaker 3: was he screwed by the no knockdown call one hundred percent.

2026
01:39:52,520 --> 01:39:55,280
Speaker 3: But there were so many close rounds in which neither

2027
01:39:55,400 --> 01:39:57,960
Speaker 3: man either Tank or roached through a lot of punches.

2028
01:39:58,240 --> 01:39:59,800
Speaker 3: Where I think, and we were saying that during the

2029
01:40:00,200 --> 01:40:03,200
Speaker 3: cast back in March, it felt like both fighters were

2030
01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:06,080
Speaker 3: taking a gamble that the judges would prefer what they

2031
01:40:06,120 --> 01:40:08,960
Speaker 3: were doing when there were like single digit lands and

2032
01:40:09,000 --> 01:40:10,720
Speaker 3: they were playing a lot of chests except for those

2033
01:40:10,760 --> 01:40:13,479
Speaker 3: exciting rounds. I think it was different in the rematch,

2034
01:40:13,520 --> 01:40:16,040
Speaker 3: and I know a lot of fighters picked Cruz. I

2035
01:40:16,080 --> 01:40:18,160
Speaker 3: was talking to Steven Espinoza. He had thought Cruz won,

2036
01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:19,960
Speaker 3: but you know he was in the crowd, and Cruse

2037
01:40:20,000 --> 01:40:23,000
Speaker 3: had such a crowded vantage there in San Antonio that

2038
01:40:23,080 --> 01:40:25,960
Speaker 3: anytime he did anything, they were going nuts. So you

2039
01:40:26,040 --> 01:40:27,960
Speaker 3: knew it had the potential to be a close fight.

2040
01:40:28,520 --> 01:40:30,479
Speaker 3: But you also had a lot of people predicting that

2041
01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:33,280
Speaker 3: Roach was gonna box from the outside against Cruz to

2042
01:40:33,320 --> 01:40:36,439
Speaker 3: try to deal with that pressure, and instead he parked

2043
01:40:36,560 --> 01:40:39,000
Speaker 3: right in front of him. And although he got knocked

2044
01:40:39,000 --> 01:40:41,360
Speaker 3: down for the first time in his career, dude, when

2045
01:40:41,400 --> 01:40:44,120
Speaker 3: he surged back in those middle rounds, I cannot believe

2046
01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:47,240
Speaker 3: he turned pitbull into a boxer. He made him circle away,

2047
01:40:47,280 --> 01:40:49,120
Speaker 3: he made him do a lot of things that we've

2048
01:40:49,160 --> 01:40:52,639
Speaker 3: never seen him have to do before, even against Tank Davis.

2049
01:40:53,000 --> 01:40:55,040
Speaker 3: And now we find out that Roach broke his hand

2050
01:40:55,439 --> 01:40:57,760
Speaker 3: in round five in this fight and still put on

2051
01:40:57,800 --> 01:41:00,639
Speaker 3: that performance down the stretch. Remember when people on late

2052
01:41:00,760 --> 01:41:04,439
Speaker 3: notice after they pulled Roly gave that performance against Tank

2053
01:41:04,439 --> 01:41:06,800
Speaker 3: where he lost basically one fifteen one to thirteen on

2054
01:41:07,080 --> 01:41:10,360
Speaker 3: two of the three cards. It was said that for

2055
01:41:10,400 --> 01:41:13,639
Speaker 3: as good as he fought, Tank injured his hand halfway through,

2056
01:41:13,680 --> 01:41:16,120
Speaker 3: and if they had, you know, rematched it, it would look differently.

2057
01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:19,559
Speaker 3: Roach did the same thing, and I thought he won comfortably. Now,

2058
01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:23,880
Speaker 3: the official scorer, Larry Hazzard, had it close the whole

2059
01:41:23,880 --> 01:41:26,439
Speaker 3: way and had it just barely for Roach in the end.

2060
01:41:27,040 --> 01:41:30,400
Speaker 3: I'm not upset for anyone that had Cruise closer because

2061
01:41:30,400 --> 01:41:32,839
Speaker 3: the first half of the fight had some very close rounds,

2062
01:41:33,080 --> 01:41:35,320
Speaker 3: or even from a compy box standpoint, it was even.

2063
01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:38,120
Speaker 3: But in totality, when you look at those stats, it

2064
01:41:38,160 --> 01:41:40,160
Speaker 3: was all Roach, and I think when you add up

2065
01:41:40,160 --> 01:41:43,880
Speaker 3: the rounds, Roach did everything you would have wanted. In

2066
01:41:43,920 --> 01:41:46,479
Speaker 3: my opinion, he didn't rely on the boxing. He stood

2067
01:41:46,479 --> 01:41:49,760
Speaker 3: in there, landed the bigger shots backpit bull up and

2068
01:41:49,840 --> 01:41:51,479
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's just bad luck, or if

2069
01:41:51,520 --> 01:41:53,920
Speaker 3: it's the fact that he's facing a very popular fighter

2070
01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:56,920
Speaker 3: in Texas, or maybe it's just Texas which is renowned

2071
01:41:56,920 --> 01:41:59,800
Speaker 3: for having such a horrible commission, one that you can't

2072
01:41:59,800 --> 01:42:02,479
Speaker 3: rely upon. You just have to feel bad for him.

2073
01:42:02,640 --> 01:42:04,320
Speaker 3: Like he said in the post for an interview, what

2074
01:42:04,360 --> 01:42:07,240
Speaker 3: the hell do I have to do ultimately to get

2075
01:42:07,240 --> 01:42:09,720
Speaker 3: this done. Let's hear from Lamont Roach and then we

2076
01:42:09,760 --> 01:42:11,559
Speaker 3: can react to this. Here's him at the press conference

2077
01:42:11,600 --> 01:42:14,200
Speaker 3: after the fight and Antonio, thank you very much to

2078
01:42:14,320 --> 01:42:16,800
Speaker 3: all the fans thinking to the medium.

2079
01:42:16,640 --> 01:42:19,759
Speaker 1: As we welcome up one half of our main event

2080
01:42:19,840 --> 01:42:20,479
Speaker 1: of the evening.

2081
01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:23,839
Speaker 3: The fight ended in a draw. He fought his heart out.

2082
01:42:23,960 --> 01:42:26,240
Speaker 1: And again showed the true champion that he truly is.

2083
01:42:26,320 --> 01:42:29,559
Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, Lamont roach Junior, give him around him

2084
01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:34,519
Speaker 1: a pause, Lamont, that's an hour room from your fight.

2085
01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:36,280
Speaker 4: What's going through your mind?

2086
01:42:39,479 --> 01:42:39,679
Speaker 13: Man?

2087
01:42:39,720 --> 01:42:41,160
Speaker 4: I hope everybody enjoy her.

2088
01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:48,439
Speaker 16: Oh yeah, it's awesome. Honestly, you know, obviously I proved

2089
01:42:48,479 --> 01:42:51,960
Speaker 16: that I'll fight anyone again. This is not my national Wait.

2090
01:42:53,800 --> 01:42:56,840
Speaker 16: I moved up again and for a tough competitor and

2091
01:42:57,080 --> 01:43:02,040
Speaker 16: uh as a cruise. But two times in a row,

2092
01:43:02,320 --> 01:43:06,920
Speaker 16: it's crazy. I can't fight my opponent and fight the

2093
01:43:07,000 --> 01:43:07,679
Speaker 16: judges sites.

2094
01:43:08,840 --> 01:43:09,320
Speaker 4: It's just.

2095
01:43:10,760 --> 01:43:13,000
Speaker 16: It's something we gotta do about it. It's something we

2096
01:43:13,040 --> 01:43:13,760
Speaker 16: gotta do about it.

2097
01:43:14,080 --> 01:43:17,840
Speaker 4: I think I won, and I think I definitely out

2098
01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:19,559
Speaker 4: boxed him.

2099
01:43:19,640 --> 01:43:21,800
Speaker 16: All I need is to even playing field.

2100
01:43:21,960 --> 01:43:22,320
Speaker 4: That's all.

2101
01:43:22,760 --> 01:43:24,200
Speaker 16: I'm gonna come out there and show my skills.

2102
01:43:24,200 --> 01:43:24,960
Speaker 4: I'm gonna show.

2103
01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:29,040
Speaker 16: My great my will, everything else, and not to mention

2104
01:43:29,880 --> 01:43:32,080
Speaker 16: I think I broke my hand in like the fifth.

2105
01:43:31,840 --> 01:43:32,920
Speaker 2: Round or something like that.

2106
01:43:33,240 --> 01:43:37,519
Speaker 3: So we have questions for Lamont Roach. Raise your hand. Look,

2107
01:43:37,560 --> 01:43:39,120
Speaker 3: here's what I have to say. At one point thirty

2108
01:43:39,120 --> 01:43:41,679
Speaker 3: where he was a title holder, he beat Hector Luis

2109
01:43:41,680 --> 01:43:43,960
Speaker 3: Garcia by knocking him down the final round. He had

2110
01:43:43,960 --> 01:43:46,639
Speaker 3: a one title defense. I thought he was a good fighter,

2111
01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:50,000
Speaker 3: never looked great. He moved up to thirty five, was

2112
01:43:50,080 --> 01:43:53,040
Speaker 3: clearly the bigger fighter against Tank and gave Tank the

2113
01:43:53,080 --> 01:43:55,320
Speaker 3: hardest fight of his life. Then moved up to one

2114
01:43:55,439 --> 01:43:59,800
Speaker 3: forty and gave Pitbull Cruise the hardest fight of his life.

2115
01:44:00,560 --> 01:44:02,360
Speaker 3: He kind of deserves to come out of this year

2116
01:44:02,400 --> 01:44:04,519
Speaker 3: as a star in my opinion, for the way that

2117
01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:07,080
Speaker 3: he raised his game on the brightest stage. I have

2118
01:44:07,120 --> 01:44:10,080
Speaker 3: nothing but respect for him. In some ways, this is boxing.

2119
01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:12,040
Speaker 3: You got close fights. They could go either way if

2120
01:44:12,040 --> 01:44:14,639
Speaker 3: you don't finish them. But I believe in him as

2121
01:44:14,640 --> 01:44:17,679
Speaker 3: a true elite now either at thirty five or forty,

2122
01:44:17,840 --> 01:44:19,280
Speaker 3: and I think you might have the body to go

2123
01:44:19,320 --> 01:44:25,479
Speaker 3: to Welterway two eventually. Tough draw here ultimately, but Lamont

2124
01:44:25,560 --> 01:44:28,360
Speaker 3: Roach has had an incredible year and I almost think

2125
01:44:28,360 --> 01:44:30,519
Speaker 3: he deserves Fighter of the year votes coming off with

2126
01:44:30,560 --> 01:44:31,559
Speaker 3: two majority draws.

2127
01:44:31,680 --> 01:44:33,320
Speaker 4: It's crazy to say that too. And this is the

2128
01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:35,360
Speaker 4: other part you see, I'll say, in defensive Roach, who again,

2129
01:44:35,439 --> 01:44:37,559
Speaker 4: I like him and his father very much. A couple

2130
01:44:37,560 --> 01:44:39,120
Speaker 4: of DC guys, you know, I'm going to be biased

2131
01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:42,880
Speaker 4: towards them. But BC, he didn't just dare to be

2132
01:44:42,920 --> 01:44:45,520
Speaker 4: great here and going to thirty five and then forty respectively.

2133
01:44:46,080 --> 01:44:48,840
Speaker 4: You know, fighting big time A sides and people are

2134
01:44:48,840 --> 01:44:50,479
Speaker 4: gonna say, okay, well, tanks in a side, But how

2135
01:44:50,560 --> 01:44:53,719
Speaker 4: much is Pitpbull Cruise? BC? Tell the truth. Pitple Cruse

2136
01:44:53,760 --> 01:44:56,200
Speaker 4: is one of the best ticket movers in boxing, particularly

2137
01:44:56,240 --> 01:45:00,439
Speaker 4: in these Mexican American markets like San Antonio. He was,

2138
01:45:00,640 --> 01:45:02,160
Speaker 4: I mean, he was the A side and he was

2139
01:45:02,240 --> 01:45:06,040
Speaker 4: the hometown favorite by a gazillion miles, even though he

2140
01:45:06,080 --> 01:45:08,800
Speaker 4: wasn't from San Antonio. So this guy is going up

2141
01:45:08,840 --> 01:45:13,080
Speaker 4: in waits into the lions den against big names or

2142
01:45:13,120 --> 01:45:15,800
Speaker 4: big names in certain markets, which again, when they land,

2143
01:45:15,840 --> 01:45:18,639
Speaker 4: the crowd roars, and when Roach lands, you know, there's

2144
01:45:18,680 --> 01:45:20,880
Speaker 4: just a bunch of silence. Correct me if I'm wrong.

2145
01:45:21,160 --> 01:45:23,840
Speaker 4: Like this to me also feels like how hard it

2146
01:45:23,880 --> 01:45:27,519
Speaker 4: is to really upset the powers that be Apple cart

2147
01:45:27,560 --> 01:45:29,880
Speaker 4: so to speak, in boxing, when you try to make

2148
01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:31,920
Speaker 4: a name for yourself, very very difficult to do.

2149
01:45:33,000 --> 01:45:35,320
Speaker 3: They both at the press conference afterwards sort of argued

2150
01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:37,760
Speaker 3: over who won. Both agreed to a rematch. Like I said,

2151
01:45:37,760 --> 01:45:40,200
Speaker 3: Pipoll sort of blamed it on the referee for taking

2152
01:45:40,240 --> 01:45:42,679
Speaker 3: a point away for holding, but Pipple had been dirty

2153
01:45:42,680 --> 01:45:44,839
Speaker 3: a lot of this fight and had been warned a lot.

2154
01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:47,679
Speaker 3: As much as I'd like to see a rematch here, Luke,

2155
01:45:47,800 --> 01:45:49,920
Speaker 3: this fight did wake up Tank Davis whether you want

2156
01:45:49,960 --> 01:45:52,040
Speaker 3: to see him again or not. And he had replied

2157
01:45:52,080 --> 01:45:54,160
Speaker 3: to some fans, told a lot of the fans to

2158
01:45:54,280 --> 01:45:56,920
Speaker 3: f off, but ultimately said when his knee is healthy.

2159
01:45:56,920 --> 01:45:59,000
Speaker 3: I didn't know he had a knee setback, that he

2160
01:45:59,040 --> 01:46:03,519
Speaker 3: wants to rematch Pitbull now if Tank Davis doesn't see

2161
01:46:03,600 --> 01:46:08,400
Speaker 3: jail time over the continued transgressions and domestic abuse. Would

2162
01:46:08,439 --> 01:46:10,720
Speaker 3: you rather see Tank in a rematch with Pitbull or

2163
01:46:10,840 --> 01:46:13,160
Speaker 3: Roach or just see those two fight each other again.

2164
01:46:18,200 --> 01:46:21,000
Speaker 4: I don't know what to say about Tank Davis. I guess,

2165
01:46:21,320 --> 01:46:24,719
Speaker 4: of all worlds, I'd like to see that more because

2166
01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:28,360
Speaker 4: that one he felt to me, the pit Bull fight

2167
01:46:28,479 --> 01:46:31,200
Speaker 4: was close. I thought Tank fight was close too, but

2168
01:46:31,240 --> 01:46:33,760
Speaker 4: then with the knee not really right, he really should

2169
01:46:33,800 --> 01:46:36,000
Speaker 4: have won that one. He got fucking jobbed in that one.

2170
01:46:36,280 --> 01:46:39,639
Speaker 4: I don't feel like he necessarily got jobbed against Cruise,

2171
01:46:39,640 --> 01:46:42,920
Speaker 4: although I also had him winning. But yeah, thirty five

2172
01:46:42,960 --> 01:46:46,600
Speaker 4: I think is better. And the Tank fight, to me,

2173
01:46:46,640 --> 01:46:49,360
Speaker 4: feels like the bigger wrong of the two, although I

2174
01:46:49,360 --> 01:46:51,920
Speaker 4: can understand a argument for the reverse. That's the one

2175
01:46:51,920 --> 01:46:54,480
Speaker 4: I'd like to see. But Tank is so freaking unpredictable.

2176
01:46:54,520 --> 01:46:55,680
Speaker 4: I don't know what to say about that.

2177
01:46:56,560 --> 01:46:58,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm with you on that. I'd love to see

2178
01:46:59,080 --> 01:47:01,280
Speaker 3: Tank roach too. That'd be my choice out of all

2179
01:47:01,280 --> 01:47:03,800
Speaker 3: those three. But heck, if you had to do Tank

2180
01:47:03,800 --> 01:47:05,719
Speaker 3: Pitbull two and then you put Roach on the Colemane

2181
01:47:05,760 --> 01:47:07,360
Speaker 3: maybe against the Frank Martin who had to break the

2182
01:47:07,439 --> 01:47:09,439
Speaker 3: win or whatever. Like, I think there's ways you can

2183
01:47:09,479 --> 01:47:12,519
Speaker 3: build toward this. If Tank is committed again to the sport,

2184
01:47:12,560 --> 01:47:16,240
Speaker 3: we'll see what happens quickly on that Colemane. Boxing insiders

2185
01:47:16,240 --> 01:47:18,320
Speaker 3: were fired up about this fight. It was a virtual

2186
01:47:18,360 --> 01:47:21,759
Speaker 3: pick'm betting wise. Unfortunately for Stephen Fulton Junior, the featherweight

2187
01:47:21,800 --> 01:47:23,720
Speaker 3: title holder, he had tried to move up to one

2188
01:47:23,880 --> 01:47:27,000
Speaker 3: thirty to challenge Oshaki Foster for his belt, looking to

2189
01:47:27,040 --> 01:47:30,479
Speaker 3: become the first three division champion in Philadelphia history. And

2190
01:47:30,560 --> 01:47:32,840
Speaker 3: he had said coming in this will cement him for

2191
01:47:32,920 --> 01:47:34,559
Speaker 3: the Hall of Fame and he wanted to move up

2192
01:47:34,560 --> 01:47:37,720
Speaker 3: to lightweight afterwards. Then he goes out and misses weight

2193
01:47:37,760 --> 01:47:41,599
Speaker 3: by two pounds and because of alphabet shenanigans, the WBC

2194
01:47:41,720 --> 01:47:46,840
Speaker 3: then floats as completely unnecessary vacant interim lightweight title fight.

2195
01:47:47,160 --> 01:47:49,920
Speaker 3: It kept the fight alive, but in the end, dude

2196
01:47:49,960 --> 01:47:55,040
Speaker 3: O'shaki Foster looked like an absolute complete champion with a

2197
01:47:55,240 --> 01:47:59,320
Speaker 3: like borderline virtuoso drubbing. Now he didn't get all twelve

2198
01:47:59,400 --> 01:48:01,599
Speaker 3: rounds from all three judges. He got all twelve rounds

2199
01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:04,360
Speaker 3: on my score sheet. Look, Colin Press, were you with

2200
01:48:04,479 --> 01:48:06,640
Speaker 3: Foster making Fulton look like you didn't belong in the

2201
01:48:06,720 --> 01:48:07,760
Speaker 3: ring with him.

2202
01:48:08,240 --> 01:48:11,160
Speaker 4: I was shocked by this, first of all. I was

2203
01:48:11,160 --> 01:48:13,600
Speaker 4: shocked at Fulton missed weight going up to thirty. I

2204
01:48:13,640 --> 01:48:16,599
Speaker 4: was like, what the fuck is this? Dude? He got

2205
01:48:18,479 --> 01:48:22,639
Speaker 4: he got? No one would argue, and I'm not arguing

2206
01:48:22,760 --> 01:48:26,320
Speaker 4: BC that the Innaay loss isn't worse. The Innaa loss

2207
01:48:26,360 --> 01:48:29,000
Speaker 4: is worse. He got finished and you know was really

2208
01:48:29,080 --> 01:48:31,920
Speaker 4: never in that one either. I don't know how to

2209
01:48:31,960 --> 01:48:34,719
Speaker 4: explain this BC. Maybe I'm just completely out of my mind.

2210
01:48:34,880 --> 01:48:38,880
Speaker 4: I almost I'm not saying it is. I almost feel

2211
01:48:38,920 --> 01:48:42,280
Speaker 4: like this one is worse because it went the full

2212
01:48:42,360 --> 01:48:45,880
Speaker 4: distance and he got Dude, this was a masterclass when

2213
01:48:46,200 --> 01:48:49,320
Speaker 4: Foster was in South Paw, like how to fight as

2214
01:48:49,320 --> 01:48:52,880
Speaker 4: a rangye South Paw. I thought this was like you

2215
01:48:52,880 --> 01:48:54,880
Speaker 4: could teach a class on how well he did it.

2216
01:48:55,080 --> 01:48:57,679
Speaker 4: But then of course going back to orthodox at various points,

2217
01:48:57,680 --> 01:49:01,960
Speaker 4: including down the stretch as well. Man, Dude, this was

2218
01:49:02,400 --> 01:49:06,120
Speaker 4: Fulton just was made to look lesser than from beginning

2219
01:49:06,160 --> 01:49:09,280
Speaker 4: to end in this one. Domination is what I would

2220
01:49:09,280 --> 01:49:11,760
Speaker 4: call it. He didn't. I don't think Fulton got like

2221
01:49:12,320 --> 01:49:16,000
Speaker 4: super beat up in this one, but he got out boxed.

2222
01:49:16,120 --> 01:49:20,639
Speaker 4: He got thoroughly outboxed in this one. Foster's best win

2223
01:49:20,720 --> 01:49:21,759
Speaker 4: to date in many ways.

2224
01:49:21,800 --> 01:49:24,080
Speaker 3: B see yeah, and Foster had come off three straight

2225
01:49:24,120 --> 01:49:28,160
Speaker 3: split decisions that controversial loss in between the cut Rubson Cancesau,

2226
01:49:28,200 --> 01:49:31,240
Speaker 3: and I think he really felt the criticisms people had

2227
01:49:31,280 --> 01:49:33,720
Speaker 3: faced had given him for being a slow starter, a

2228
01:49:33,720 --> 01:49:36,840
Speaker 3: defensive fighter. He was full offense all the time. I

2229
01:49:37,400 --> 01:49:39,519
Speaker 3: was proud of him, seriously to give him what he's

2230
01:49:39,520 --> 01:49:41,559
Speaker 3: been through in his life to have a victory like this,

2231
01:49:41,800 --> 01:49:43,639
Speaker 3: I think Fulton needs to go back to twenty six

2232
01:49:43,680 --> 01:49:46,479
Speaker 3: if he can make it, or almost step away. And

2233
01:49:46,520 --> 01:49:48,519
Speaker 3: I hate to say that. Look, he's still got great ability,

2234
01:49:48,520 --> 01:49:51,000
Speaker 3: and he tried hard for twelve rounds, but he doesn't

2235
01:49:51,040 --> 01:49:53,360
Speaker 3: have the power to be a track you down guy,

2236
01:49:53,600 --> 01:49:55,639
Speaker 3: and you didn't have the speed to out box full

2237
01:49:55,840 --> 01:49:58,479
Speaker 3: or Foster here, so he almost had nothing to miss.

2238
01:49:58,560 --> 01:50:00,920
Speaker 3: Way to have a video that was out there during

2239
01:50:00,960 --> 01:50:02,760
Speaker 3: the week at the press conference where he sat where

2240
01:50:02,800 --> 01:50:05,519
Speaker 3: he was bragging about eating two Thanksgiving meals because he

2241
01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:07,479
Speaker 3: didn't have to cut so hard, and then he missed weight.

2242
01:50:07,800 --> 01:50:10,519
Speaker 3: It's a bad look overall. And shout out of course

2243
01:50:10,560 --> 01:50:14,120
Speaker 3: to uh Jesus Ramos Junior for getting that secondary middleweight

2244
01:50:14,160 --> 01:50:16,800
Speaker 3: belt against Shane Moseley Junior. That was a very competitive fight.

2245
01:50:17,080 --> 01:50:20,719
Speaker 3: Quick highlight though of the featured prelim the ghost Frank Martin,

2246
01:50:20,720 --> 01:50:23,080
Speaker 3: who hadn't fought since that loss to Tank Davis on

2247
01:50:23,120 --> 01:50:26,360
Speaker 3: pay per view, moved up in wait seventeen months later

2248
01:50:26,439 --> 01:50:30,160
Speaker 3: and sent Rancis Barthelmy to hell. Look, that was a

2249
01:50:30,320 --> 01:50:33,160
Speaker 3: breakthrough performance are you a believer in the ghost in

2250
01:50:33,200 --> 01:50:34,000
Speaker 3: the new weight class?

2251
01:50:34,000 --> 01:50:36,479
Speaker 4: Now, I'm a believer that he ghosted on me five

2252
01:50:36,560 --> 01:50:38,880
Speaker 4: times for an interview, as I brought up now because

2253
01:50:38,880 --> 01:50:40,240
Speaker 4: I'm definitely not bitter about it.

2254
01:50:40,640 --> 01:50:42,360
Speaker 3: He did the same thing. He did the same thing

2255
01:50:42,400 --> 01:50:44,960
Speaker 3: to me, dude, it's yeah, the exact same thing.

2256
01:50:45,439 --> 01:50:47,840
Speaker 4: And he followed me on Instagram like when we were

2257
01:50:47,880 --> 01:50:49,400
Speaker 4: setting it up. I was like, oh, great, this will

2258
01:50:49,439 --> 01:50:52,640
Speaker 4: be cool, and then just kept not showing up. I'm like,

2259
01:50:52,720 --> 01:50:56,120
Speaker 4: oh my fucking god. But dude, that was great. And

2260
01:50:56,200 --> 01:50:59,679
Speaker 4: also Rancis Barthelmy has stunk up the joint a million times,

2261
01:51:00,200 --> 01:51:03,160
Speaker 4: so you know, he kind of had this one. He

2262
01:51:03,240 --> 01:51:05,240
Speaker 4: kind of had this one coming a little bit. But

2263
01:51:05,880 --> 01:51:08,600
Speaker 4: Frank Martin, you know, he was overmatched against Tank, but

2264
01:51:09,080 --> 01:51:13,280
Speaker 4: he looked fantastic. Here again, great South Paul fighter BC.

2265
01:51:13,520 --> 01:51:16,280
Speaker 4: How about Frank Martin versus Lamont Roach wouldn't hate that one.

2266
01:51:16,280 --> 01:51:18,240
Speaker 3: He loved that. I would love that. I hope we

2267
01:51:18,320 --> 01:51:19,719
Speaker 3: get a chance to see that. He's now with Buddy

2268
01:51:19,760 --> 01:51:21,759
Speaker 3: mcgert by the way, after falling out with Derek James,

2269
01:51:21,760 --> 01:51:24,520
Speaker 3: so good win right there. That wraps up the PBC

2270
01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:27,240
Speaker 3: pay per view from over the weekend. Let's go now

2271
01:51:27,520 --> 01:51:28,679
Speaker 3: to our next segment.

2272
01:51:28,720 --> 01:51:28,920
Speaker 2: Here.

2273
01:51:28,960 --> 01:51:31,040
Speaker 3: We give you the chance every Sunday night on social

2274
01:51:31,080 --> 01:51:34,200
Speaker 3: media at Morning Combat on Instagram and x to get

2275
01:51:34,240 --> 01:51:43,160
Speaker 3: your questions heard. This one's called DMS from the Docks.

2276
01:51:38,320 --> 01:51:47,240
Speaker 3: All right, our boy, A man and his cat leads off.

2277
01:51:47,320 --> 01:51:50,599
Speaker 3: What has been some of your favorite rematches that had

2278
01:51:50,760 --> 01:52:00,320
Speaker 3: extremely different outcomes than expected? Because I guess he's referencing,

2279
01:52:00,400 --> 01:52:03,720
Speaker 3: of course, the Yon Devolished Villy main event on Saturday.

2280
01:52:06,160 --> 01:52:09,439
Speaker 3: I'm thinking in boxing, of course, when when Manny Pacio,

2281
01:52:09,479 --> 01:52:11,880
Speaker 3: after losing the first fight to Eric Morales, came back

2282
01:52:11,920 --> 01:52:14,680
Speaker 3: and stopped him and just ran through him after a

2283
01:52:14,760 --> 01:52:17,000
Speaker 3: very close start to that fight. That blew my mind.

2284
01:52:17,200 --> 01:52:18,960
Speaker 3: I'm trying to think in Mma, Luke.

2285
01:52:18,840 --> 01:52:23,120
Speaker 4: Where Showgun having that long battle with Macheetah and then

2286
01:52:23,160 --> 01:52:25,400
Speaker 4: they rematched him and he just bulldozed him right away.

2287
01:52:25,479 --> 01:52:30,920
Speaker 4: That was kind of interesting, Uh, you know a little

2288
01:52:31,000 --> 01:52:34,519
Speaker 4: more like this one, which was the first time Katur

2289
01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:38,560
Speaker 4: and Liddell. Thought Liddell got out wrestled even though he

2290
01:52:38,640 --> 01:52:40,519
Speaker 4: was he came from a wrestling background. Everyone knows that

2291
01:52:40,560 --> 01:52:42,960
Speaker 4: cal Poly and then the second fight, Katur couldn't get

2292
01:52:42,960 --> 01:52:45,920
Speaker 4: shit going and got iced and then obviously the third

2293
01:52:45,960 --> 01:52:48,479
Speaker 4: time two those, But I don't know if that's exactly

2294
01:52:48,520 --> 01:52:53,000
Speaker 4: like it was a big upset as much as it

2295
01:52:53,160 --> 01:52:55,280
Speaker 4: just went very differently than the first time.

2296
01:52:55,720 --> 01:52:58,200
Speaker 3: How about Fury Wilder too, That was pretty.

2297
01:52:58,360 --> 01:53:02,640
Speaker 4: That was that was crazy. That was definitely crazy in

2298
01:53:02,680 --> 01:53:11,200
Speaker 4: a shitty way. Joshua Ruiz, I'm not sure. I don't

2299
01:53:11,200 --> 01:53:13,000
Speaker 4: think about that one a little bit more because a

2300
01:53:13,000 --> 01:53:16,360
Speaker 4: lot of times we did see it coming, it just

2301
01:53:16,439 --> 01:53:18,960
Speaker 4: went differently. It's different than like, oh my god, I'm

2302
01:53:19,000 --> 01:53:23,559
Speaker 4: so surprised, you know, yeah, yeah, what are you doing

2303
01:53:23,560 --> 01:53:24,599
Speaker 4: over there with your left hand?

2304
01:53:25,040 --> 01:53:27,920
Speaker 3: I was petting my cat. Reggie Jackson just just arrived.

2305
01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:28,320
Speaker 6: He's here.

2306
01:53:28,360 --> 01:53:29,840
Speaker 3: He's let me see if I can get him on

2307
01:53:29,880 --> 01:53:33,000
Speaker 3: the camera. Read say, hi, buddy, Yeah, there we go.

2308
01:53:33,920 --> 01:53:36,000
Speaker 3: You know, Luke, he's making so many enemies in the

2309
01:53:36,000 --> 01:53:39,240
Speaker 3: house during Christmas season, hanging from the Christmas tree, beating

2310
01:53:39,320 --> 01:53:41,800
Speaker 3: up the girl cats, keeping everyone up at night by

2311
01:53:41,840 --> 01:53:44,200
Speaker 3: just screaming, running down the hallways screaming.

2312
01:53:44,280 --> 01:53:46,400
Speaker 4: You know, he'll be the last one that I euthanize.

2313
01:53:46,560 --> 01:53:50,000
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's that's wild, all right, Thank you

2314
01:53:50,000 --> 01:53:52,240
Speaker 3: for the question. A man and his cat. I'm also

2315
01:53:52,560 --> 01:53:55,000
Speaker 3: one of those let's hear from flannels and JITs. He

2316
01:53:55,040 --> 01:53:58,479
Speaker 3: says with how so Hudo's career ended, how much did

2317
01:53:58,520 --> 01:54:01,240
Speaker 3: his last comeback imp at his legacy? It's a good

2318
01:54:01,439 --> 01:54:04,519
Speaker 3: question because Sudo walked to Hudo walked away in his

2319
01:54:04,640 --> 01:54:08,000
Speaker 3: prime two division champ, high on the Pomper pound list,

2320
01:54:08,080 --> 01:54:11,439
Speaker 3: took three years off. He's zero and four since that comeback,

2321
01:54:11,479 --> 01:54:13,760
Speaker 3: even though he fought well against al Joe in a

2322
01:54:13,800 --> 01:54:16,800
Speaker 3: split decision title loss, Luke, If he did not take

2323
01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:19,760
Speaker 3: that time off, what does his legacy look like?

2324
01:54:20,000 --> 01:54:22,240
Speaker 4: Well, that's a different question. Put this one back up.

2325
01:54:24,120 --> 01:54:26,360
Speaker 4: How did the way his career ended, how did his

2326
01:54:26,439 --> 01:54:28,640
Speaker 4: last comeback impacted him? To mad legacy? So this is

2327
01:54:28,680 --> 01:54:31,000
Speaker 4: more about Okay, once he did come back, what did

2328
01:54:31,080 --> 01:54:31,599
Speaker 4: it add?

2329
01:54:31,720 --> 01:54:33,920
Speaker 3: Does it? Does it change his legacy? Losing four in

2330
01:54:33,920 --> 01:54:34,840
Speaker 3: a row at the end.

2331
01:54:35,040 --> 01:54:37,440
Speaker 4: It changes it a little bit, but it doesn't really

2332
01:54:37,560 --> 01:54:39,600
Speaker 4: undercut the fact that the guy was a fucking Olympic

2333
01:54:39,640 --> 01:54:41,400
Speaker 4: gold medalist and a two weight world And it's what

2334
01:54:41,440 --> 01:54:44,320
Speaker 4: I mean, dude, that is such an overwhelming achievement that

2335
01:54:44,440 --> 01:54:46,720
Speaker 4: like you have to go on a bj penn esk

2336
01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:49,320
Speaker 4: run for there to be like people just to lose

2337
01:54:49,440 --> 01:54:52,480
Speaker 4: sight of what you did. This doesn't do that, but

2338
01:54:52,520 --> 01:54:56,600
Speaker 4: it clearly just just what it did to MEBC was

2339
01:54:56,640 --> 01:55:00,680
Speaker 4: it underscored what a tragic error in strate thinking it

2340
01:55:00,800 --> 01:55:02,560
Speaker 4: was to take those three years off like that.

2341
01:55:02,640 --> 01:55:05,640
Speaker 3: And then what was prime the last five fights before

2342
01:55:05,680 --> 01:55:08,320
Speaker 3: he left the sport in May of twenty twenty was

2343
01:55:08,320 --> 01:55:10,920
Speaker 3: a decision win over Sergio Pettis, a very quality win,

2344
01:55:11,400 --> 01:55:14,160
Speaker 3: an upset of Demetrius Johnson for the title split decision

2345
01:55:14,160 --> 01:55:17,160
Speaker 3: over five rounds, a knockout of TJ. Dillashaw for the

2346
01:55:17,160 --> 01:55:20,880
Speaker 3: Flyway title, and then goes up for the vacant bantamweight title,

2347
01:55:20,880 --> 01:55:22,880
Speaker 3: gets beat up by Marlon Moris and comes back and

2348
01:55:22,920 --> 01:55:25,840
Speaker 3: stops him in round three, and then defends the title

2349
01:55:25,840 --> 01:55:29,560
Speaker 3: against Dominic Cruz and Keith Peterson by TKO in round two.

2350
01:55:30,000 --> 01:55:32,520
Speaker 3: That's I mean, obviously that's the run that made him

2351
01:55:32,600 --> 01:55:35,600
Speaker 3: a Hall of Famer, but he's got some other wins

2352
01:55:35,760 --> 01:55:38,800
Speaker 3: earlier in his career with that. But that run alone, dude,

2353
01:55:38,800 --> 01:55:39,600
Speaker 3: that's legend.

2354
01:55:39,800 --> 01:55:41,840
Speaker 4: I was a sick ass run. Yeah, he had a

2355
01:55:41,880 --> 01:55:42,720
Speaker 4: great moment there.

2356
01:55:43,560 --> 01:55:46,280
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to our third one from Tory O'Neill.

2357
01:55:46,720 --> 01:55:49,920
Speaker 3: Now that Morab has lost, who is your fighter of

2358
01:55:49,960 --> 01:55:51,520
Speaker 3: the Year, and I'm sure we're going to break that

2359
01:55:51,640 --> 01:55:54,520
Speaker 3: down as we get closer to the new year. But Luke,

2360
01:55:54,600 --> 01:55:57,600
Speaker 3: this changes because every discussion I've had about this with

2361
01:55:57,720 --> 01:56:00,960
Speaker 3: my editorial colleagues at CBS was always, well, it's gonna

2362
01:56:00,960 --> 01:56:03,280
Speaker 3: be Rob. It's not gonna be Morob.

2363
01:56:03,360 --> 01:56:05,800
Speaker 4: Now, yeah, so it is.

2364
01:56:05,800 --> 01:56:09,200
Speaker 3: It ISLAM, even though the Moikano victory in January isn't.

2365
01:56:09,520 --> 01:56:12,160
Speaker 4: You know, you can lose and still be a Fighter

2366
01:56:12,200 --> 01:56:15,440
Speaker 4: of the Year contender. So, for example, in the same year,

2367
01:56:15,640 --> 01:56:19,000
Speaker 4: Robbie Lawler lost a very controversial fight to Johnny Hendrix

2368
01:56:19,520 --> 01:56:22,320
Speaker 4: and then won a little bit, and then rematched him

2369
01:56:22,360 --> 01:56:25,640
Speaker 4: later that year and then beat him. So he was

2370
01:56:25,720 --> 01:56:28,480
Speaker 4: three and one that year. Technically, ABC like Morob is

2371
01:56:28,520 --> 01:56:30,760
Speaker 4: three and one. But it's a little different when you

2372
01:56:30,840 --> 01:56:32,880
Speaker 4: avenge that loss later that year.

2373
01:56:33,160 --> 01:56:36,240
Speaker 3: Does that compare to Connor McGregor's twenty sixteen where he

2374
01:56:36,280 --> 01:56:38,400
Speaker 3: lost to Nate, beat him in a classic and then

2375
01:56:38,480 --> 01:56:39,440
Speaker 3: knocked out Eddie.

2376
01:56:39,200 --> 01:56:41,280
Speaker 4: To win the right same kind of thing where you

2377
01:56:41,320 --> 01:56:44,480
Speaker 4: can avenge it, it's different. You can say josh Van

2378
01:56:44,640 --> 01:56:47,640
Speaker 4: because you know he didn't lose and he fought four

2379
01:56:47,680 --> 01:56:51,240
Speaker 4: times and he won a title. Technically, I feel to

2380
01:56:51,280 --> 01:56:53,480
Speaker 4: me the most, the most I'll say this, the single

2381
01:56:53,480 --> 01:56:57,520
Speaker 4: most impressive victory to me might be Yon. You could

2382
01:56:57,520 --> 01:56:59,840
Speaker 4: say Yan has a clear cutcase for it to BC.

2383
01:57:00,040 --> 01:57:03,040
Speaker 4: He didn't has other wins. Let me Marcus McGhee and

2384
01:57:03,200 --> 01:57:04,760
Speaker 4: what was the other one? He had one more? I think,

2385
01:57:07,040 --> 01:57:09,480
Speaker 4: well maybe it was just those two. Actually it was

2386
01:57:09,720 --> 01:57:10,120
Speaker 4: just Nick.

2387
01:57:10,320 --> 01:57:11,760
Speaker 6: I can't remember if it was this year though.

2388
01:57:11,760 --> 01:57:14,720
Speaker 3: All right, well what about this? What about legitimate Islam?

2389
01:57:14,800 --> 01:57:15,520
Speaker 4: Might be the answer.

2390
01:57:15,680 --> 01:57:18,640
Speaker 3: Islam's going to be high up there. What about Valentina?

2391
01:57:19,760 --> 01:57:25,640
Speaker 3: What about Manon Farrouh undefeated, physically tough, and then Jong

2392
01:57:25,680 --> 01:57:27,480
Speaker 3: Wayley in a fight that we thought was fifty to

2393
01:57:27,480 --> 01:57:28,920
Speaker 3: fifty and she beat the best.

2394
01:57:28,960 --> 01:57:32,920
Speaker 4: She's up there, Yeah, she's up there. Yeah those were

2395
01:57:32,960 --> 01:57:37,440
Speaker 4: both yeah, yeah, yeah, you could you could say you

2396
01:57:37,440 --> 01:57:38,600
Speaker 4: could make a case for her too.

2397
01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:40,240
Speaker 3: Did Tremaiah just fight once?

2398
01:57:41,200 --> 01:57:43,520
Speaker 4: Just once? He beat the living well, I mean he

2399
01:57:43,800 --> 01:57:47,040
Speaker 4: controlled I should say DDP to the worst extent possible,

2400
01:57:47,080 --> 01:57:49,200
Speaker 4: but uh, not much more than that.

2401
01:57:50,080 --> 01:57:53,000
Speaker 3: We'll see if we'll see where the votes go as

2402
01:57:53,040 --> 01:57:54,400
Speaker 3: we figure it out towards.

2403
01:57:54,320 --> 01:57:57,720
Speaker 4: And to Pooria, great win over Olavera, but he thought

2404
01:57:57,720 --> 01:57:59,760
Speaker 4: just one time, so that's not really, that's not enough.

2405
01:58:00,880 --> 01:58:02,280
Speaker 3: And you can't give it to Morob.

2406
01:58:02,560 --> 01:58:03,120
Speaker 6: You can't.

2407
01:58:03,760 --> 01:58:06,760
Speaker 4: No, you can't. Again, just not because he went three

2408
01:58:06,800 --> 01:58:09,560
Speaker 4: on one, but because of the way that it ended. Dude,

2409
01:58:09,600 --> 01:58:11,360
Speaker 4: if he had called it off, he would be the

2410
01:58:11,360 --> 01:58:14,280
Speaker 4: winner three title defenses. That is fucking incredible.

2411
01:58:14,360 --> 01:58:16,600
Speaker 3: Would Pantosia have been it if he had beaten Van?

2412
01:58:16,680 --> 01:58:22,000
Speaker 3: Straight up? Say again, if Pantosia had defeated Van, would

2413
01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:22,840
Speaker 3: he have been it?

2414
01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:29,280
Speaker 4: Maybe? Who's wcalu am?

2415
01:58:29,280 --> 01:58:31,680
Speaker 6: I not thinking of lost the boys?

2416
01:58:32,200 --> 01:58:34,520
Speaker 4: Oh he went four and one? Yeah, okay, but at heavyweight?

2417
01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:35,360
Speaker 4: I mean, let's be serious.

2418
01:58:35,480 --> 01:58:37,040
Speaker 6: I'm just saying. I mean he had a good year.

2419
01:58:37,080 --> 01:58:38,840
Speaker 4: Five a good year. He definitely had a good year.

2420
01:58:38,880 --> 01:58:39,760
Speaker 4: He definitely had a good year.

2421
01:58:39,800 --> 01:58:42,560
Speaker 3: Ye all right, all right, let's keep it going right here.

2422
01:58:42,560 --> 01:58:45,960
Speaker 3: The next one comes from Antonio m Alvarez. What's a

2423
01:58:46,160 --> 01:58:50,040
Speaker 3: modern MMA trend that you'd love to see left behind

2424
01:58:50,520 --> 01:58:52,280
Speaker 3: in twenty twenty five?

2425
01:58:54,800 --> 01:58:55,680
Speaker 4: Say that one more time.

2426
01:58:56,120 --> 01:58:59,680
Speaker 3: What's a modern MMA trend that you'd like to see?

2427
01:58:59,720 --> 01:59:02,000
Speaker 3: And this year is it buying people.

2428
01:59:02,760 --> 01:59:05,800
Speaker 4: People on Twitter talking about their favorite fighters as we.

2429
01:59:06,920 --> 01:59:09,920
Speaker 3: Oh that's bad, that's pretty lame. What about dealing with

2430
01:59:10,120 --> 01:59:12,680
Speaker 3: ESPN plus we're gonna leave that behind, aren't we?

2431
01:59:12,680 --> 01:59:15,920
Speaker 4: Well still, I mean we I still have to watch PFL.

2432
01:59:15,600 --> 01:59:18,560
Speaker 3: You know, Okay, Okay, what.

2433
01:59:19,080 --> 01:59:20,880
Speaker 4: Mister paramount over there is like, I don't have to

2434
01:59:20,880 --> 01:59:24,200
Speaker 4: worry about that bullshit anymore. We're still gonna watch a

2435
01:59:24,200 --> 01:59:24,839
Speaker 4: little PFL.

2436
01:59:25,760 --> 01:59:27,880
Speaker 3: What a long island? Look, you got any MMA trends

2437
01:59:27,880 --> 01:59:28,760
Speaker 3: we should leave behind?

2438
01:59:30,520 --> 01:59:31,680
Speaker 6: I guess it's an MMA trend.

2439
01:59:31,680 --> 01:59:34,160
Speaker 5: I always hate when people say someone's a lock to

2440
01:59:34,200 --> 01:59:35,960
Speaker 5: win a fight, like, oh, they're a lock.

2441
01:59:36,000 --> 01:59:37,760
Speaker 6: They're gonna be like, no one's a fucking lock, man,

2442
01:59:37,760 --> 01:59:39,720
Speaker 6: it's a fight, So leave that behind.

2443
01:59:39,840 --> 01:59:41,960
Speaker 3: You sound like an old Luke Thomas going, we don't

2444
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:44,680
Speaker 3: know who's gonna win. Nobody knows who's gonna win. How

2445
01:59:44,680 --> 01:59:45,760
Speaker 3: can I give a prediction?

2446
01:59:46,240 --> 01:59:50,280
Speaker 4: Nobody knows, nobody knows. Everyone pretends they know. No one knows.

2447
01:59:50,480 --> 01:59:52,080
Speaker 3: I like when they be like, Luke, what's your best

2448
01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:54,520
Speaker 3: bet of the weekend? You're like, well, I mean minus

2449
01:59:54,560 --> 01:59:58,360
Speaker 3: fourteen hundred favorite, he's gonna win. That's what that's beat. Yeah.

2450
01:59:58,760 --> 02:00:00,720
Speaker 4: I like how you think that this is not a

2451
02:00:00,800 --> 02:00:04,760
Speaker 4: sound way of advising people. Everyone who gets it right

2452
02:00:04,920 --> 02:00:08,120
Speaker 4: is also just doing a guessing game. They mostly don't

2453
02:00:08,120 --> 02:00:10,280
Speaker 4: even know and half the time, more than half the

2454
02:00:10,320 --> 02:00:13,080
Speaker 4: time that they get it right, their reasoning isn't even

2455
02:00:13,200 --> 02:00:17,240
Speaker 4: very good. They're just guessing. They're just guessing. Take it

2456
02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:17,960
Speaker 4: for what it is.

2457
02:00:18,120 --> 02:00:21,640
Speaker 3: Our final question comes from sticks plays time. If you

2458
02:00:21,680 --> 02:00:25,080
Speaker 3: could talk to the mid thirties version of you right now,

2459
02:00:25,560 --> 02:00:27,520
Speaker 3: what would you say to them. So, let's say the

2460
02:00:27,560 --> 02:00:30,600
Speaker 3: thirty five year old version of Luke Thomas, that would

2461
02:00:30,600 --> 02:00:34,360
Speaker 3: be eleven years ago, that would be twenty fourteen. What

2462
02:00:34,360 --> 02:00:35,320
Speaker 3: are you saying to that.

2463
02:00:35,360 --> 02:00:38,160
Speaker 4: Man, You're not gonna believe this, but you should change

2464
02:00:38,200 --> 02:00:40,160
Speaker 4: careers immediately, get.

2465
02:00:40,000 --> 02:00:41,120
Speaker 3: The frick out of here.

2466
02:00:42,440 --> 02:00:43,920
Speaker 4: That's what I would tell if I was thirty five,

2467
02:00:43,960 --> 02:00:45,480
Speaker 4: That's what I would had a chance to talk to

2468
02:00:45,480 --> 02:00:49,440
Speaker 4: that thirty five. Yeah, that's what I tell them.

2469
02:00:49,560 --> 02:00:53,040
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, I would tell the thirty five year old

2470
02:00:53,120 --> 02:00:57,680
Speaker 3: me to believe, believe, Believe, Believe it's possible, Believe the

2471
02:00:57,720 --> 02:01:01,480
Speaker 3: doors can open. Believe that just because something falls apart,

2472
02:01:01,480 --> 02:01:04,160
Speaker 3: that you had a big opportunity and doesn't mean that

2473
02:01:04,280 --> 02:01:07,440
Speaker 3: it's the end of your run in that field. Believe

2474
02:01:08,840 --> 02:01:12,240
Speaker 3: believe Lukes Like actually, I would tell myself, don't follow

2475
02:01:12,280 --> 02:01:15,320
Speaker 3: your dreams. You're only going to be disappointed.

2476
02:01:15,480 --> 02:01:16,520
Speaker 4: Terrible mistake to make.

2477
02:01:16,680 --> 02:01:21,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, anything else you want to tell the

2478
02:01:21,040 --> 02:01:21,880
Speaker 3: thirty five year old.

2479
02:01:21,840 --> 02:01:25,000
Speaker 4: Version of you, Luke, just that, just that, Like you've

2480
02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:27,600
Speaker 4: got a certain kind of sophomoric idea about how you

2481
02:01:27,640 --> 02:01:29,440
Speaker 4: think your life's going to go, and it's not going

2482
02:01:29,520 --> 02:01:31,200
Speaker 4: to go that way. It's better to be a very

2483
02:01:31,240 --> 02:01:36,360
Speaker 4: cold but calculated realist about it. And uh yeah, well.

2484
02:01:36,080 --> 02:01:37,880
Speaker 3: Let a realists end up in nine to five is

2485
02:01:37,920 --> 02:01:39,360
Speaker 3: that they hate Luke. I'd rather believe.

2486
02:01:39,400 --> 02:01:46,360
Speaker 4: All right, that doesn't sound so bad. Yeah, you ask me.

2487
02:01:47,080 --> 02:01:48,960
Speaker 4: It's very weird that you ask me my opinion and

2488
02:01:49,000 --> 02:01:51,320
Speaker 4: then don't like it when I tell you something that's unpleasant,

2489
02:01:51,360 --> 02:01:54,840
Speaker 4: I suppose. But people have a lot of bad idea.

2490
02:01:54,880 --> 02:01:58,280
Speaker 4: I mean, dude, this is a terrible industry to be

2491
02:01:58,360 --> 02:02:02,720
Speaker 4: involved in, and I don't fully regret it. That's that's

2492
02:02:02,720 --> 02:02:04,320
Speaker 4: not I didn't say that. I didn't say that. I

2493
02:02:04,360 --> 02:02:07,040
Speaker 4: didn't say that. But yeah, if I had, if I

2494
02:02:07,040 --> 02:02:09,120
Speaker 4: had eleven year window to make a lap move, I

2495
02:02:09,120 --> 02:02:09,760
Speaker 4: would have done it.

2496
02:02:10,400 --> 02:02:13,920
Speaker 3: All right, then, the very honest musings of one Luke Thomas.

2497

Speaker 3: Let's go to our final segment. Thank you for your questions, fans,

2499
02:02:19,960 --> 02:02:22,080
Speaker 3: the ugly, the highs and lows and in between. In

2500
02:02:22,120 --> 02:02:24,720
Speaker 3: the world of combat sports and beyond. There's kernels in

Speaker 3: Indeed? All right? Uh, Luke PBC. Over the weekend, Pitbull

2507
02:02:42,360 --> 02:02:45,360
Speaker 3: Cruise was acting like a freak in the ring. It

2508
02:02:45,760 --> 02:02:48,360
Speaker 3: came when he was most frustrated by roach. What do

2509
02:02:48,400 --> 02:02:51,080
Speaker 3: you make of this move? Did you see that?

2510
02:02:51,800 --> 02:02:52,400
Speaker 4: One more time?

2511
02:02:54,480 --> 02:02:57,720
Speaker 3: It gave him the tongue, the full tongue that I've.

2512
02:02:57,600 --> 02:02:59,840
Speaker 4: Given I've given some people that tongue before.

2513
02:03:00,240 --> 02:03:03,120
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, who knew he was a freak?

2514
02:03:03,200 --> 02:03:03,520

Speaker 10: He probably lost against him, the Pitterian I I will

2519
02:03:13,040 --> 02:03:13,960

2523
02:03:24,800 --> 02:03:28,839
Speaker 3: do the Bruce Buffer bit. It was great, most loss record.

2524

Speaker 3: Okay he passed out during this. Selly, dude.

2537
02:04:10,480 --> 02:04:13,480
Speaker 4: If you beat the opponent, don't let gravity beat you.

2538
02:04:13,480 --> 02:04:14,080
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.

2539
02:04:14,120 --> 02:04:17,920
Speaker 3: Indeed, indeed, let's go to FFC ninety nine. Check out

2540
02:04:17,920 --> 02:04:18,480
Speaker 3: this ending.

2541
02:04:19,960 --> 02:04:23,040
Speaker 4: Okay. You know what's so funny about this? The ko

2542
02:04:23,200 --> 02:04:27,040
Speaker 4: is incredible. This guy who won Lucas Cordibagi h I

2543
02:04:27,240 --> 02:04:29,680
Speaker 4: called the fight just before this of him. He fought

2544
02:04:29,760 --> 02:04:33,680
Speaker 4: next FC and he got smashed in like I don't know,

2545
02:04:33,680 --> 02:04:36,000
Speaker 4: maybe seven seconds, like one of the shortest fights you've

2546
02:04:36,000 --> 02:04:38,640
Speaker 4: ever seen, like something crazy. The dude who beat him

2547
02:04:39,160 --> 02:04:41,000
Speaker 4: is like waiting to be signed by the UFC and

2548
02:04:41,040 --> 02:04:42,400
Speaker 4: they haven't signed him yet. And I don't know what

2549
02:04:42,440 --> 02:04:44,040
Speaker 4: they're waiting on. Because you can see the guy we

2550
02:04:44,120 --> 02:04:45,120
Speaker 4: beat his pretty quality.

2551
02:04:45,320 --> 02:04:47,800
Speaker 3: You're probably waiting on him to accept the twelve and twelve.

2552
02:04:48,240 --> 02:04:49,040
Speaker 4: Yeah maybe so.

2553
02:04:49,640 --> 02:04:51,600
Speaker 3: Look, you've been an active man in your life. What's

2554
02:04:51,600 --> 02:04:53,280
Speaker 3: your favorite form of birth control?

2555
02:04:55,560 --> 02:04:57,320
Speaker 4: The old pull out methods? You know what I'm saying,

2556
02:04:57,360 --> 02:04:58,839
Speaker 4: Go roll that dice, brother.

2557
02:04:58,720 --> 02:05:01,720
Speaker 3: It ever fails until it Let's check out a new option.

2558
02:05:02,120 --> 02:05:04,800
Speaker 17: This is the most effective birth control on the market.

2559
02:05:04,920 --> 02:05:07,320
Speaker 17: If you use this, your chances of getting pregnant or

2560
02:05:07,360 --> 02:05:10,880
Speaker 17: getting someone pregnant drops to zero. So it's called magic

2561
02:05:10,920 --> 02:05:12,879
Speaker 17: the gathering and it's this card game.

2562
02:05:16,520 --> 02:05:19,360
Speaker 3: All right, Luke, it is the holiday season. Let's go

2563
02:05:19,480 --> 02:05:21,520
Speaker 3: back and receive some love from one O. J.

2564
02:05:21,760 --> 02:05:22,280
Speaker 6: Simpson.

2565
02:05:23,720 --> 02:05:25,520
Speaker 4: Covering up the white meat. I mean, I don't think

2566
02:05:25,520 --> 02:05:28,840
Speaker 4: that it actually said that. I think someone put that

2567
02:05:28,920 --> 02:05:29,320
Speaker 4: on there.

2568
02:05:29,320 --> 02:05:32,800

2571
02:05:44,200 --> 02:05:46,280
Speaker 4: I don't know. I don't know what would be the point.

2572
02:05:46,640 --> 02:05:49,600
Speaker 3: I don't know, Luke. There ain't no holiday like Thanksgiving.

2573
