You know, there's a 37 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 3: couple of high schools. It was you know, it was 38 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 3: every It was the only thing I knew, so I 39 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 3: didn't really I just kind of thought the world was 40 00:01:57,480 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 3: everything was kind of like helling them on, like it 41 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 3: just thought like it was the world was like that, so, 42 00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: you know, it felt like it was a normal upbringing. 43 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 3: We had a pretty you know, pretty badass house in 44 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,000 Speaker 3: the mountains, pretty close to a lake, like didn't fish, 45 00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: didn't hunt didn't really do any like, didn't have animals, 46 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 3: but we had to you know, had land and lived 47 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 3: by the lake. Was always on the lake in the summer, 48 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 3: and you know, I just thought it was it is beautiful. 49 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 3: I just thought it was you know, I thought everywhere snowed, 50 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 3: and like I was, you know, clearly not very smart, 51 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,520 Speaker 3: but I just thought it was normal. And then I 52 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,839 Speaker 3: eventually moved to Arizona and realized it was like, holy, 53 00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 3: she is a completely different world. 54 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, what what? 55 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,640 Speaker 1: What kind of kid were you? Growing up in that 56 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: environment with that much space? 57 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 3: I was active there. It was football, basketball, soccer, baseball 58 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 3: all year round, from when I was three four years 59 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: or three four years old. Whatever season, like it was 60 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,959 Speaker 3: cold out, we were playing basketball. When it was you know, summer, 61 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 3: we were playing football, baseball. So it was always non stop. 62 00:02:50,600 --> 00:02:52,240 Speaker 3: All my memories are just playing sports. 63 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,920 Speaker 1: Who put that on you, right, Because when you're a kid, 64 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 1: you don't just choose a sport. It's either your dad, 65 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: it's your mom. Who was the one in the family 66 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,120 Speaker 1: that says showing it's gonna be sports. From the very start, 67 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 1: I think it was a little bit of both. 68 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: I had an older brother who was you know, very similar, 69 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,519 Speaker 3: played played all the sports. Had a younger brother he played, 70 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,359 Speaker 3: you know, played all the sports. You know. I think 71 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 3: growing up my my parents played sports too. And I 72 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 3: don't know if it was just a we had a 73 00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 3: lot of energy as kids, like what else are we 74 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: gonna do? Yeah, I you know, we hated or I 75 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: hated school. So it was just like that was pretty 76 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 3: much all I looked forward to doing. Was you know, 77 00:03:24,440 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: after school, we got football practice, basketball practice, baseball practice. 78 00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 3: Looking back, I wish so much that someone in my 79 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 3: family was like, hey, we should wrestle, Maybe we should wrestle. 80 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 3: Like I was one of those guys like fucking fruit loops. 81 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 3: I'm playing, I'm playing. I'm playing basketball while you fuckers 82 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 3: are running stairs and I'm fucking shooting hoops. So I 83 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 3: looked in my high school. I remember the kids wrestling 84 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 3: and I was playing basketball, and it's like that sucks. 85 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: I'm wearing some single its. 86 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,200 Speaker 2: And why does a singlet scare people? 87 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: Now? 88 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:52,839 Speaker 3: I love it. I'm showing off my junk, like look 89 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 3: at it. Look what I'm packing, baby, I'm ready to wrestle. 90 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 1: So, and how much did play in all those sports 91 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: shape you? Because right now, one of the big issues, 92 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: especially in youth sports is specializing the kids specialize. 93 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 2: You did the jump shot after a fight one time, 94 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 2: I was like, well, what is the meaning of that? 95 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 1: Now that when I start researching you and realizing you 96 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: played all these sports, that's the meaning. But how important 97 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:21,240 Speaker 1: was that football, soccer, basketball, baseball to becoming the type 98 00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: of athlete that you are today. 99 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 3: I think I feel like it molded completely molded me 100 00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 3: to it's just being a good athlete because I was 101 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 3: constantly doing different movements like football, different the basketball, than 102 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 3: soccer and baseball. There's all these different athletic movements that 103 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: I was doing NonStop since I was three four years old. 104 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: And you know when I put a finally put on 105 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,520 Speaker 3: the gloves and I was sixteen years old and went 106 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,960 Speaker 3: to SPA, I kind of was just I didn't have 107 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 3: a stance. I wasn't orthodox. They now my hands up 108 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 3: wasn't a I didn't even watch fighting, like I started 109 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 3: training and like fell in love with the sport before 110 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,600 Speaker 3: I even watched anything. Like I was just my style 111 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 3: came from just instinct. Like I literally put gloves on 112 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 3: and we sparred. My hands are partially because the gloves 113 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 3: were sixteen ounces. I'm like, the motherfucker's heavy. Yeah, I 114 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 3: keep him out of my hip, and if I got 115 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,680 Speaker 3: to put him up, I will. But I wasn't really 116 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: getting hit. I wasn't training with good guys.

I didn't necessarily 841 00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 3: think I was ready. Like if they would have offered 842 00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:24,040 Speaker 3: it to me, I would have been like, I don't 843 00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 3: know what I would have said, But I wasn't pushing 844 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 3: for of those bigger fights because I'm like, I'm not 845 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:29,360 Speaker 3: making that much money right now, And the way the 846 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 3: UFC works, is you gotta go out there and win 847 00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,680 Speaker 3: a lot of fucking fights in a row before you 848 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 3: start making real money. Yeah, that's just what it is. Yeah, Like, 849 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 3: you're not gonna win four fights in a row and 850 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 3: start making six figures. You got to you gotta get 851 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:40,960 Speaker 3: up to that. And I was like, I want to 852 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 3: build a re I want to build the resume. I 853 00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 3: want to build, you know, knockouts, Like I will fight 854 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 3: the worst guy possible. Give me the worst guy on 855 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 3: the roster, and I want to fight that guy. 856 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, you get that title fight against Aljamaine Sterling. 857 00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 2: But now you're now you're a star. Yeah, I mean 858 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:58,720 Speaker 2: your music hits at arena in Boston. 859 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: People went crazy. Bro, it was the loudest it was. 860 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,480 Speaker 1: It was insane the way that they responded to you. 861 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,600 Speaker 1: But with that comes pressure, the pressure of becoming the champion. 862 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:13,560 Speaker 1: How did you handle the pressure of that moment as 863 00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:16,600 Speaker 1: a guy that's in his first UFC championship I fight. 864 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was an interesting one. But before that, I 865 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:20,839 Speaker 3: thought so I thought Peter and Abu Dhabi it was 866 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,839 Speaker 3: I was ranked number eleven, he was ranked number one, 867 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:26,680 Speaker 3: literally two through ten. Had they were fighting each other 868 00:36:26,719 --> 00:36:30,000 Speaker 3: there was nobody else booked. I reached out UFC. It 869 00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 3: was right after I supposedly poked Pedro Munos in the 870 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 3: I and I was like, I need to fight like this. 871 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:37,839 Speaker 3: I don't like this feeling. I need to get a fight. 872 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 3: And they said Peterion's the only one without a fight. 873 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:43,480 Speaker 3: I said, perfect, like I'm ready, let's do it. They're like, 874 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:48,719 Speaker 3: they call Peter, they Peter, you know, supposedly accept the fight. 875 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:50,440 Speaker 3: I feel like they said, yo, you're fighting Sean and 876 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:52,760 Speaker 3: he's like, fuck, all right whatever. So we're in Abudabi 877 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 3: October twenty second, twenty twenty two, and that was a 878 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:57,760 Speaker 3: big moment for me. I knew, like I was like, damn, 879 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 3: this is this is it. I'm fighting Peter On, who, 880 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 3: in my opinion still is one of the best pound 881 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,320 Speaker 3: for pound fighters of all time. He's just super skilled, 882 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:10,120 Speaker 3: and uh, I think he underest underestimated me a little bit. 883 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:12,439 Speaker 3: I think, uh, you know, that was a close fight. 884 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 3: I won the fight, and uh, yeah, it was. 885 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:16,960 Speaker 2: It was great. 886 00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 3: Fast forward to the Algro fight. He's the greatest bandom 887 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 3: weight of all time at the time still, you know, 888 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:26,040 Speaker 3: depending on how you look at the division whatever, He's 889 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:28,800 Speaker 3: up there. He's one of the I think Peter and Aljo, 890 00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 3: obviously Morob those three probably the three greatest bando weights 891 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 3: of all time. 892 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 1: Over dominant Cruise and those guys. 893 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,840 Speaker 3: I mean, in my opinion, yeah, I think so. 894 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:42,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 895 00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,759 Speaker 3: But anyway, al Jo I was, you know, had a 896 00:37:44,760 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 3: bad rib injury going to that fight. You know, we 897 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,200 Speaker 3: didn't grapple at all. It was not an ideal. It 898 00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 3: was not idea. In Boston, I'm not pulling out of 899 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 3: the fight.

This is my first 902 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 3: title fight and it's against the absolute worst stylistic matchup 903 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 3: for me. Like, it's just this. I'm like, I have 904 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,400 Speaker 3: to go out there and knock this motherfucker. I have 905 00:38:13,480 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 3: to have no choice.
