Speaker 1: He's earned it. It was a big week. He took
Speaker 1: a big l but the but his heart is now full.

Speaker 4: bo Jane, you get some bo Jangles.
Speaker 2: Look, you can pause.
Speaker 4: Yeah, as you guys wanted about in the episode, you
Speaker 4: can pause.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Now I got a question about this episode. Is this
Speaker 1: Jared Allen and Michael Chandler or is this just Michae Chander,
Speaker 1: Michael Chandlor, Just Michael Chandler, Michael Chanp.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 1: I absolutely love that weekend update.
Speaker 2: Boys.
Speaker 1: We lived like we were back in college. It was
Speaker 1: an outdid It was an outstanding time. The boys went
Speaker 1: to uh ann Arbor. I thought we were staying on campus.
Speaker 1: That was a bit of a bummer. We had to
Speaker 1: ride through some university here and there in the beginning,
Speaker 1: even before we got in the fight. There's a to adversity.
Speaker 1: We worked through that. Overall, the vibes this entire weekend
Speaker 1: was absolutely incredible. We went to Ricks American Cafe and
Speaker 1: it was around eleventh This is the staple of our
Speaker 1: Friday night. We went to a Rix American cafe and
Speaker 1: it's like eleven thirty and we knew he had a
Speaker 1: big day ahead of us. And Will leans to me
Speaker 1: and goes, hey, man, some guys just offered me something
Speaker 1: called cheese. Is that weed? He go, Buddy, he's talking
Speaker 1: about coke. We need to get out of here. We
Speaker 1: we should probably go walk outside the place. This is
Speaker 1: where I want to give my flowers to to Nebraska.
Speaker 1: That fan base travels so well. For those of you
Speaker 1: who aren't going to Michigan, the next step is to
Speaker 1: go to Nebraska because that fan base is so incredible.
Speaker 1: The nil deals they're doing there, it is they were
Speaker 1: we walk outside of ricks and they're literally chanting for
Speaker 1: the boys or go big Red yelling fuck you Taylor,
Speaker 1: like it was a beautiful thing to see.
Speaker 2: You got arrested by a cop. Well, bro, travel were.
Speaker 3: They were deep in the ann Arbor, like in each bar,
Speaker 3: like standing outside wrapped around.
Speaker 4: I mean it was that was the only w we
Speaker 4: kind of took all weekend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, travel. We had a great having at ann Arbor. Yeah,
Speaker 1: two great colleges, two great college towns coming together, battling
Speaker 1: it over the bus.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you guys did, like you guys whooped our ass.
Speaker 3: It is what it is. We had to battle the
Speaker 3: elements a little bit. Our quarterback got hurt in the
Speaker 3: second quarter. You can never you get down to your
Speaker 3: third string quarterback. It's kind of tough to overcome that. Yeah, Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's a that's a tough deal.
Speaker 2: Mission. They look good. They do. They do look good.
Speaker 2: Their defense looks good. The offense is.
Speaker 1: They have a great running game they're doing for I
Speaker 1: think they take the Big Ten this year.
Speaker 3: They could they and like you said, like their defense,
Speaker 3: they're one of the top defenses in the country, and
Speaker 3: like the score could have been way worse than it was.
Speaker 3: Like they're obviously playing in the elements as well, and
Speaker 3: so they just basically ran the ball because the knew
Speaker 3: they were gonna beat us. And they're moving the line
Speaker 3: of scrimmers the entire time, bragging about it being against Nebraska.
Speaker 3: I don't know how much you can do that, but
Speaker 3: they're like Michigan looks like it good football team, and
Speaker 3: Blake corn I can't say enough good things about that.
Speaker 1: Fucking Yeah, and you actually gotta said too, you DM
Speaker 1: this man.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I was trying to get in this out early.
Speaker 4: I didn't know if it played against me.
Speaker 3: Looking back, it might not have been the best move
Speaker 3: because he was probably a little extra motivated to shoving
Speaker 3: our face because he loves doing the whole eat the
Speaker 3: corn thing. And then I also after the game, I
Speaker 3: was like, Yo, this is in the locker room.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was like, did you see me talking shit about you?
Speaker 3: He was like, oh no, I don't see that stuff.
Speaker 3: So I had to take a weird humble pie like okay,
Speaker 3: you know you didn't peep that, and then weird and
Speaker 3: then what did he say?
Speaker 2: JPS?
Speaker 3: He like walked out and faded, faded out of the
Speaker 3: faded out of the locker room and just left me,
Speaker 3: just put me in a blender and kind of just
Speaker 3: walked off.
Speaker 5: He said, oh, yeah, I've been eating corn all my life. Yeah,
Speaker 5: and just faded walked away. That was like he didn't
Speaker 5: like turn and walk out of the locker room. He
Speaker 5: just continued to like shovel and stay squared up.
Speaker 2: By the contact all the time.
Speaker 3: My contact goes, I've been eating corn my whole life
Speaker 3: and just wasn't even like he was smiling, but wasn't
Speaker 3: like trying to be funny like yeah, I fucking gotcha.
Speaker 2: I'm him right now, Yeah I am.
Speaker 1: And it was very it was It was really cool
Speaker 1: to see Nebraska like the players. We were on the
Speaker 1: sideline for the game, that all the boys went this
Speaker 1: online for the game. That was a nice little deal.
Speaker 1: But seeing the Nebraska fans like literally Michigan goes in
Speaker 1: the tunnel, We go down and Nebraska was like about
Speaker 1: to start coming to the tunnel. We start dapping the
Speaker 1: boys up. They're all loving on Will. They're yelling bust
Speaker 1: and bull all this type of stuff. And I had
Speaker 1: like four or five dudes give me the no thank
Speaker 1: you high five, like you want just kidding your loser tailor.
Speaker 1: So the hate was there, flavor fla was there. The love.
Speaker 2: Iut of know where it was. It was cool, it
Speaker 2: was it was It was a cool experience.
Speaker 1: I liked. The pregaming before was unreal too. We went
Speaker 1: to the Lacrosse House. Shout out the boys of the
Speaker 1: Lacrosse House. Their ratio of men to women was about
Speaker 1: seventeen to one. But those boys didn't give a shit
Speaker 1: about nothing.
Speaker 2: They were kegan.
Speaker 1: They were having a great time the entire time. Their
Speaker 1: house disgusting, dude.
Speaker 2: I want.
Speaker 1: I had to take a shit during that pregame. I
Speaker 1: literally went and took a shit, and I thought, should
Speaker 1: I have him flush this?
Speaker 2: It just kind of goes with.
Speaker 1: Like the decor of this home, you know, and they're like, hey,
Speaker 1: we got carpet. But the boys of Lacross House shout
Speaker 1: the boys. They reached out to the bust and Busting
Speaker 1: account and said, you guys got to come here. It's
Speaker 1: gonna be popping off at twelve thirty. We show up
Speaker 1: casually late twelve thirty five. It was electric. Then there's
Speaker 1: some frat party, like we literally have to go to
Speaker 1: the game, and then there's this group of people, this
Speaker 1: girl with her boyfriend. She's like, we're going to fall
Speaker 1: some sort of a bunch of words. That ended up
Speaker 1: being a frat and we walked like through these alleyways
Speaker 1: with them and that place was going crazy too.
Speaker 3: Backyard like in dirt backyard. Yeah, front to back, front
Speaker 3: to back. But it was awesome. It was a good
Speaker 3: little college experience. You alway, you want to hit those
Speaker 3: things right, You want to get into tailgating life.
Speaker 4: You want to see what the college kids are doing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because you you go back and you're like, I
Speaker 1: want to live like I'm back in college again, and like,
Speaker 1: there's gonna be a point where you're too old to nine.
Speaker 1: I know there's some of you out there going listen
Speaker 1: to you're probably too old now. Yeah, they do it
Speaker 1: being thirty one years old. But it was a blast,
Speaker 1: and we'll receive you paid to do it.
Speaker 2: Well, you paid to do it. This is a live.
Speaker 2: You guys have to go to the college parties. We
Speaker 2: have the best lives of all time.
Speaker 3: Break our arm over this, but to have like again,
Speaker 3: we're gonna look back one day and know that that
Speaker 3: weekend started a tradition.
Speaker 2: That's so cool. How dope is that? Man?
Speaker 4: We had a trophy, We had a forty pound trophy made.
Speaker 1: And they're playing for it's in a trophy case. I
Speaker 1: got a text from Zach Center today.
Speaker 4: Can you show me right now.
Speaker 3: I'll show you right now. Yeah, boys already put it
Speaker 3: in a trophy case. After the game, we go into
Speaker 3: the locker room, and at first there was like, I
Speaker 3: don't know if we should go in the locker room.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was just trying not to step on toes they
Speaker 1: hooked us up. I was just trying to Taylor.
Speaker 2: To one in Michigan. We get it. We gotta get
Speaker 2: in there somehow.
Speaker 3: We go into the locker room and all the boys
Speaker 3: are stoked about the trophy. All the position groups are
Speaker 3: taking photos. Everybody's talking about it. Dudes are talking shit
Speaker 3: to me. Edward's number seventy.
Speaker 2: He came up.
Speaker 4: He'said, I told you we were gonna get that shit.
Speaker 2: Just mad, just mad. You want to get a photo
Speaker 2: with He's like.
Speaker 4: No, I'm good. I just wanted him to know he
Speaker 4: was gonna take that ship out.
Speaker 2: Dude.
Speaker 1: Hey, Edwards, he's gonna have a long NFL career. That
Speaker 1: dude is about his fucking business. Yeah, how cool is
Speaker 1: that photo?
Speaker 2: Fucking awesome?
Speaker 1: I texted Apple off and I said, hey, can you
Speaker 1: have some of your media people espress the red button.
Speaker 1: I was like, hey, can you have some of your
Speaker 1: media people like take like good cameras and get a
Speaker 1: photo of that. As I was gonna post that before
Speaker 1: we even came here.
Speaker 3: We'll have to put it on the YouTube. Show him this,
Speaker 3: show him this picture. That's fucking fired.
Speaker 2: Yeah sick. I'll send to the group right now.
Speaker 1: But it goes hard right next to Paul Budyon Trophy
Speaker 1: because he's home and the brown joke.
Speaker 3: Now, the goal is, we just got to make sure
Speaker 3: that the sonny the equipment manager, make sure that trophy
Speaker 3: gets the Lincoln next year to be there on the field.
Speaker 2: I think he needed.
Speaker 1: That's like step three. Probably Step one is getting Nebraska
Speaker 1: to sign off.
Speaker 4: Well in the Michigan eighty to sign off.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've looked no, like I'm not even trying to
Speaker 1: throw shit at Nebraska, Like what, let me just put
Speaker 1: this down with the way what happened in Nebraska this
Speaker 1: year is extremely unfortunate. And for them to have an
Speaker 1: interim head coach and then go say, okay, we agree
Speaker 1: to this trophy game, it completely makes sense why they
Speaker 1: would take a step back from that.
Speaker 2: I get it.
Speaker 1: I think you go in this off season, you make
Speaker 1: a great hire, you get some good recruits, couple of
Speaker 1: good transfers, you're started feeling really good about your football
Speaker 1: season coming up. That then they can sit there and say, okay,
Speaker 1: we'll sign for this. Once they signed well said, Michigan
Speaker 1: has already Michigan has already said hey, once they signed
Speaker 1: the papers, we'll sign the papers like Jim signed it,
Speaker 1: and we'll get the ad to sign it as well.
Speaker 1: So that's that's literally the only piece of the puzzle.
Speaker 1: We need to make the single official official now, regardless
Speaker 1: it's happening again next year. Yeah, yeah, yeah, regardless of
Speaker 1: what Nebraska sides to.
Speaker 4: Do September, they played September next year.
Speaker 1: I'm stoked about that, cold buddy.
Speaker 3: You already know, like it's gonna be hype train going
Speaker 3: in the season layout, what our schedule is gonna look
Speaker 3: like after you get a peek behind the curtain in springtime,
Speaker 3: dove dove dub looking back, that was a bad move
Speaker 3: at the moment, Like can you say we'll believe that
Speaker 3: or was he being controlled? There's a big part of
Speaker 3: me that believed that we were gonna be really good
Speaker 3: this year.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but hindsight's always twenty twenty. You're you're gonna have
Speaker 1: the same energy next year. Yeah, no, you're right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this it's gonna come back. There's nothing to apologize for
Speaker 1: or feel bad about, Like, well, you look, I'm legit
Speaker 1: look like like missions going undfeated, they're gonna win the
Speaker 1: national championship.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just tough when people put out the receipts
Speaker 3: on you look at what you're saying.
Speaker 4: You're like, yeah, I do look like a fucking clown.
Speaker 2: That is hilarious.
Speaker 1: I'm thinking back to when you were going you were like,
Speaker 1: we like pre capping the entire season, are going over
Speaker 1: the entire season?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what the fuck we have pre capping?
Speaker 1: You were pre capping that season, talking crazy too, talking crazy.
Speaker 1: So the Bust and Bowl was extremely successful. That was
Speaker 1: incredible NFL. There was not a lot going on, but
Speaker 1: a dub's a dub. They don't ask how, they ask
Speaker 1: how many boys? And then Titans rode high on Sunday.
Speaker 2: That's a that's a.
Speaker 3: Perfect mic Verabel game. Like they talk about all the inactives.
Speaker 3: The boys just don't batter on either, like oh we prefer.
Speaker 1: To yeah, oh Simmons is out good? Yeah, cutting hymns
Speaker 1: out good, it is. It is one of those things, dude,
Speaker 1: you just kind of the boys love adversity.
Speaker 2: I don't get it.
Speaker 1: I'm terrified for when they have everybody back, I know,
Speaker 1: because they thrive on adversity. Dude, they absolutely thrive on it.
Speaker 1: I saw uh no, I'm not going to say that,
Speaker 1: but it was a it was an electric game.
Speaker 3: I mean, they're up now, like, what's what's the Titans record?
Speaker 3: Six and three? Six and three?
Speaker 1: And then same as the Bills.
Speaker 3: Wow, crazy, same as the Bills playoff started this week,
Speaker 3: the Titans would be hosting the Bills.
Speaker 1: The Bills now we can probably we can jump on,
Speaker 1: we can jump off the Titans train. That's six and
Speaker 1: three is incredible. They won Russell Wilson's top five cringiest
Speaker 1: people that ever walked this earth. Okay, they're not riding
Speaker 1: the Vikings Bills. The game, the Titans game is ending.
Speaker 1: I literally look at my phone. Will says, this is
Speaker 1: like one of the greatest games ever or whatever whatever
Speaker 1: you texted, and all the.
Speaker 3: Fucking negative vibes people and Kirk Cousins they're eating ship
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 2: He was going off justin.
Speaker 1: Jefferson's catch in that game was maybe the greatest catch
Speaker 1: we've ever seen in our lives. And the first when
Speaker 1: it comes to my head is Odell's right, his rookie
Speaker 1: year against Dallas. Yeah, but I'm saying that catch one handed,
Speaker 1: realized that may had two hands on it, and all
Speaker 1: he did is lock his wrist and bring that shit down.
Speaker 1: That was fourth and eighteen in eighteen with a with
Speaker 1: a game on the line. It's not first quarter, yes, bro,
Speaker 1: fourth and eighteen. I like, dude, Justin Jefferson is truly
Speaker 1: fucking him. He really seems like he's him right, He's the.
Speaker 2: Best receiver in the league. Yeah, I don't think you.
Speaker 1: I don't disagree with that. But I also in my head,
Speaker 1: I'm like, there's so many good receivers out there.
Speaker 2: Oh, for sure.
Speaker 1: I mean another receiver on on that field with Stefan Diggs.
Speaker 3: Oh, he's a great receiver. I'm saying everybody shitty if
Speaker 3: I'm saying he's the best. I'm just saying, like, dude,
Speaker 3: he is the best receiver.
Speaker 2: In the game right now, and he's going crazy.
Speaker 3: Like, does anybody have like stats that's comparative to his
Speaker 3: not only from a talnel level, I think it. Stats
Speaker 3: are proving that as well.
Speaker 1: Going into overtime, he had like one hundred and seventy
Speaker 1: yards receiving.
Speaker 6: There's was like one ninety. He was the in his
Speaker 6: first three seasons. He is the most one hundred yard games.
Speaker 6: He's twenty one hundred yard games in three seasons. That's
Speaker 6: like a record of anybody. He's insane.
Speaker 3: Man.
Speaker 6: He tied Odell for the fastest games to get to
Speaker 6: four thousand receiving yards.
Speaker 7: He's legit.
Speaker 3: And I've said a lot of dumb shit this year,
Speaker 3: but the boys. Though I did say the vikings, I
Speaker 3: did say the vikings for the NFC North. I do want, like,
Speaker 3: if people gonna come correct and shit on me, bring
Speaker 3: out that receipt as well.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Tyreek is going crazy right now. He didn't really
Speaker 1: do much his last game. I didn't get to see
Speaker 1: them play, but I do know that that man. I
Speaker 1: saw a stat about him and Waddle and then they're
Speaker 1: like they're on pace a duo to like break all
Speaker 1: the records.
Speaker 2: Right right. They got a good stable receiver. That is
Speaker 2: pretty That is pretty incredible.
Speaker 5: Tyreek Hill has eleven hundred yards receiving already. Justin Jefferson
Speaker 5: has one thy sixty but eleven hundred yards receiving and
Speaker 5: it's weak.
Speaker 4: What Yeah, Yeah, but he's also got the ball twelve
Speaker 4: more times.
Speaker 2: He's gotten open, twelve more times.
Speaker 7: He's played.
Speaker 2: He's played one more game too. Oh yeah, they one
Speaker 2: more game and yeah I needed to keep going.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's got twelve more yards and a half a
Speaker 1: year or a game fourteen and the most average yards
Speaker 1: of the game goes to jeff and Jesson. Yes, Jefferson
Speaker 1: are the same too. They're long, their lungs are literally
Speaker 1: the same.
Speaker 4: I'm just soked for uh kirk Man.
Speaker 3: I just like I know, he battles a lot of
Speaker 3: like criticism, and it's all fair criticism. It's like they
Speaker 3: played a weaker schedule. He doesn't win the big games.
Speaker 3: He doesn't rise to the occasion of the Big Bills
Speaker 3: mafia though. Yeah, you go to Buffalo, you're down what
Speaker 3: were they down out of half? Like twenty one to ten?
Speaker 7: They were down seventeen at one point.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, because Buffalo Blue a double digit lead with
Speaker 3: that at Buffalo and coming back and literally you see
Speaker 3: all the chirps, and I was kind of thinking of myself, Fuck, man,
Speaker 3: they have played a week schedule, like they're playing a
Speaker 3: good team.
Speaker 7: What about that that snap on the goal line?
Speaker 1: Oh with with Josh and it'd be a touchdown.
Speaker 2: I mean there were Yeah, listen, that's brutal.
Speaker 7: If they if you really move, the game's over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but they didn't.
Speaker 7: But they didn't.
Speaker 3: That was a brutal. That was a brutal That's a
Speaker 3: brutal thing to go down. That's a tough way to
Speaker 3: go out.
Speaker 1: That's a tough way to go out. And that's not
Speaker 1: the first time that's happened with him. Like they also
Speaker 1: had that fourth uh Tye had a fourth down stop
Speaker 1: against him where he slipped.
Speaker 3: Remember, yeah, but he got the ball and was trying
Speaker 3: Are you talking about the sneak yes in a touch, Yes, yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, maybe stay away from sticks for a
Speaker 1: little bit Bill's.
Speaker 2: Maybe for a little bit.
Speaker 1: It's some advice that yeah, we could give here, but
Speaker 1: to go into Bill's like Bill's Mafia, their their stadium.
Speaker 1: It's loud, it's obnoxious, it's crazy, and do that like
Speaker 1: that's a that's a signature winning for the Vikings. To
Speaker 1: put a the resume that's gonna help him the rest
Speaker 1: of the season.
Speaker 3: I think get that fourth, fourth and goal stop for
Speaker 3: the Bills, like the Bills stopped him on fourth and short.
Speaker 3: To just be hype like we just won this game. Defense,
Speaker 3: just won the game. And then fumbling the snap, that's tough,
Speaker 3: that's tough.
Speaker 1: The uh the overtime was insane too. They literally walked
Speaker 1: down there and they took three and Josh Allen was
Speaker 1: a man on the man on a mission. He literally
Speaker 1: ran for like I think forty yards in that like
Speaker 1: that last drive and then you're legit like.
Speaker 2: Oh, shoulder down on Eric on Eric Kendricks.
Speaker 1: Yes, put his shoulder down and Ken gets his leg
Speaker 1: and he still hops for like three more yards like
Speaker 1: Josh Allen is. I mean, we're throwing this word around
Speaker 1: a lot, but he's him.
Speaker 3: Like, hey, Kendricks almost get that ball out though, but
Speaker 3: he did.
Speaker 4: Let's still replay from the bag.
Speaker 3: Or shooting hand gerdads and that one ball that's that's
Speaker 3: a that's a big motherfucker to bring down.
Speaker 1: Yes, he's massive, And then I mean that was just
Speaker 1: a cool game, cool game to see.
Speaker 3: How about Uh, Jeff's Saturday, I'm actually so glad you
Speaker 3: brought that up that they beat the Raiders. I hate, like,
Speaker 3: you know, I want the Raiders, the Boys, but a
Speaker 3: Raider nation. So there's a part of me that one
Speaker 3: wants to see Jeff Saturday successful just because of all
Speaker 3: of the ship that went on last week in the media.
Speaker 1: Joe Thomas in Germany in the show, I'm like, and
Speaker 1: I'm a individually, I'm a giant Joe Thomas man. I
Speaker 1: think he's an incredible dude, his resume of his career,
Speaker 1: the guy he is, he's an amazing dude. He wanted
Speaker 1: like a three four minute rant about how how ridiculous
Speaker 1: this whole entire thing is. It doesn't seem that they
Speaker 1: like that was such a staple win. Their offense looked incredible,
Speaker 1: like j T was back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's just big. I'm tuning on. You're good.
Speaker 2: I'll keep going.
Speaker 1: But like for him, for him to do that, and
Speaker 1: it's when he was in the locker room post game
Speaker 1: and he's talking to the boys, say, hey, we do this,
Speaker 1: toughest team wins. You guys were the toughest team today.
Speaker 1: You guys showed X, Y and Z. The way he
Speaker 1: was talking didn't look like a guy that's like not
Speaker 1: a coach. It looks at a guy who's been doing
Speaker 1: this for years and was walking up Jeff Saturday like
Speaker 1: I want Jeff Saturday to be so successful except for
Speaker 1: two games out of the year, you know, and unfortunately
Speaker 1: we've we've already waxed that ass twice. So it's all over.
Speaker 1: So it's all good. I messed with the Colts still.
Speaker 1: I know Titans fans are gonna hate me saying that
Speaker 1: I messed with the Colts. I think their team, the
Speaker 1: way their bill is extremely extremely tough. They run a
Speaker 1: good ball, they play good defense. Uh big, obviously huge
Speaker 1: Quentin Nelson fans, He's sent you an amazing text today
Speaker 1: out of nowhere, But literally, I'm messed with the Colts.
Speaker 1: Like Jacks Houston. It's not the same story over there,
Speaker 1: but I think the Colts are a legitimate franchise and
Speaker 1: I'm stoked to see that he's doing well all.
Speaker 4: The boys over there. Quentin Nelson, Dennis Kelly.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, absolutely, and hey, but Jackson Houston texting guys
Speaker 1: want to sit here, They're more than welcome to, but
Speaker 1: they got to defend themselves a little bit.
Speaker 3: I just think it's like, I understand criticizing the hiring
Speaker 3: process a wholeheartedly, Saturday. Yeah, I understand getting to critiquing
Speaker 3: that hiring process of it all, but to continue to
Speaker 3: double triple, quadruple down on it seems like you're rooting
Speaker 3: against Jeff Saturday. Like all the stuff that was going on,
Speaker 3: Like people are coming out with their own videos, like
Speaker 3: you said, Joe Thomas, he's going for three or four minutes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was on like Good Morning football or something
Speaker 1: saying that, right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you see a lot of people like speaking out
Speaker 3: about it, like they want to speak out about it
Speaker 3: so much.
Speaker 4: But to act like Jeff Saturday wouldn't.
Speaker 3: Be like, it's not like Ersa just hired his buddy
Speaker 3: because he's just oh, that's my boy, I'm gonna hire
Speaker 3: him as my boy. Like to be around a guy
Speaker 3: for fourteen years and you see his habits every day,
Speaker 3: you see what he's about. He's an undrafted cat that
Speaker 3: made a Hall of Famer out of himself.
Speaker 4: That's been tough the playoffs, I think he said twelve times.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we've seen a Super Bowl ring who's played with grace,
Speaker 3: who understands what greatness looks like. And again, like the
Speaker 3: daily habits, you're around this guy all the time. I'm
Speaker 3: sure Jeff, if he didn't think he was big enough
Speaker 3: for the job or wanted to take on that responsibility,
Speaker 3: he would have probably alluded to maybe this isn't the
Speaker 3: best route to go. Yeah, But to be confident, like
Speaker 3: he said, I'm confident who I am.
Speaker 4: I've been around greatness. I know I can lead men.
Speaker 3: They won against the Raiders, Like, yeah, you can argue
Speaker 3: all day long, like it was the Raiders, Like, so
Speaker 3: what they're still they got whooped by the Saints. Other
Speaker 3: than that they want play away in every game, which
Speaker 3: is a funny thing to say. But it's not like
Speaker 3: they're an incompetent football team.
Speaker 1: Yeah there, and they're not incompetent like they're the winning
Speaker 1: record doesn't show the talent on that team, right, there's
Speaker 1: a crazy amount of talent on the Raiders. Like you
Speaker 1: still got to play them.
Speaker 3: Right, you still got to and play on Sunday. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the team to get a w. And then you hear
Speaker 3: him post game in the locker room and you heard
Speaker 3: him before, I hear what everybody's saying, Like it's just
Speaker 3: you know, I it makes me want to root for
Speaker 3: him because I do feel like he's in an underdog situation.
Speaker 3: He's got everybody kind of speaking out against him when
Speaker 3: he feels like he hasn't paid his dues in the
Speaker 3: coaching ranks. But the guy understands what winning looks like, Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't know the whole day, this is a new world,
Speaker 1: like things are changing every single day, like this whole
Speaker 1: pay your due stuff, Like there's a whole different avenues
Speaker 1: to go down life and it seems like coaching is
Speaker 1: now making a transition as well. He might be a
Speaker 1: trailblazer for this whole entire thing. But how much does
Speaker 1: it say about the players in the Colts locker room
Speaker 1: who get Jeff Saturday as interim head coach. They anyone
Speaker 1: with a phone knows Jeff Saturday was getting drugs through
Speaker 1: the mud the entire week. They go out and play
Speaker 1: the way they did, Like shout out the boys on that.
Speaker 1: They fucking came out and did what they were supposed
Speaker 1: to do. That was that's that's cool.
Speaker 3: As shistant quarterbacks coach called the plays, didn't he? I mean, yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't.
Speaker 1: Know the assistant quarterbacks Schroch. If he's calling the plays.
Speaker 4: Right, well, that's it. He Jeff had him. He's gonna
Speaker 4: be the OC.
Speaker 3: Everybody was mad about him jumping the line and doing
Speaker 3: all that stuff, which is like, you understand the criticizing
Speaker 3: part of it, but it's, you know, like anything, you
Speaker 3: still got to show up and play, like let's see
Speaker 3: what happens, and uh, they win the game, bro, And
Speaker 3: it seems like the continuity it might not. It's hard
Speaker 3: to just say they have the continuity across the board,
Speaker 3: like I'm sure there's some some holes, just like there
Speaker 3: is and everything. Oh yeah, but uh for them to
Speaker 3: come out again and get a win, I think it's massive, bro,
Speaker 3: And I think it speaks to like, Okay, it's not
Speaker 3: like he's just hiring his buddy to do something, right.
Speaker 2: No, I completely get that.
Speaker 1: And Quentin did what a text out of nowhere? That
Speaker 1: was a really cool text by Quentin. Yeah, not good
Speaker 1: on the phone. He's worse than me. Yeah, like he'll
Speaker 1: go months without texting or calling back. Yeah, and then
Speaker 1: randomly he'll come out. And that was just a cool text,
Speaker 1: he say.
Speaker 3: He was like, uh, Perryman was out right, Perryman was
Speaker 3: out and Martinez retired. Yep, he said, he said a
Speaker 3: nice text. He talked about my plannings like year ten
Speaker 3: in capslock. Yes, that's exactly what it was. Yeah, we're
Speaker 3: playing against the Raiders. You've played on the Raiders before.
Speaker 3: A couple of other guys were out. We need to
Speaker 3: see year ten basically. Yes, that was a hey, which
Speaker 3: is which is like it is the week of year
Speaker 3: ten if we're looking, if we're checking back on the receipts.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a big week for you and I
Speaker 1: didn't bring it up in the beginning, and I think
Speaker 1: we just let the chips fall where they may, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: because usually it's not Monday, it's a Tuesday thing.
Speaker 2: Could be.
Speaker 4: I'm like in one of those purgatory. It's like we're sitting.

Speaker 3: You're like, do you want to say anything? Like, do
Speaker 3: you wanna usual wait for it to happen?
Speaker 2: Yeah?

Speaker 1: And what I mean by that is is you live
Speaker 1: in a small town. You live in a town, there's
Speaker 1: a place you always want to go to and check out.
Speaker 1: And I got to experience one of my staple locations
Speaker 1: this weekend. That's Mister Spots. We were there for the
Speaker 1: spring tour, and literally the week leading up to this
Speaker 1: past weekend, all the boys were so fired up on
Speaker 1: going to Mister Spots.
Speaker 2: We didn't hit this once.
Speaker 1: We hit it twice. Keith looked the boys up. We
Speaker 1: had Philly cheese steaks, we had ChIL cheese fries, we
Speaker 1: had cheese, we had shakes, we had wings. The boys listen,
Speaker 1: the calorie count was up. But going back to where
Speaker 1: at one point in your life you lived or stayed
Speaker 1: there been there enough times where you frequent in this spot.
Speaker 1: There's a reason why them photos of me in college
Speaker 1: look the way they do, and that's because of mister Spots.
Speaker 1: I messed with mister Spots, and that is my shutout for.
Speaker 3: That was a mister Sposo's fire, mister sposs fire, And
Speaker 3: we did it right this time.
Speaker 2: We talked about it.
Speaker 3: We talked about we were hype while we were eating, like, hey,

Speaker 3: hadn't ate all day. My mouth was watering and thinking
Speaker 3: about the post. Yeah, I need swallow cardifal diet. And
Speaker 3: we ate way too much to where we weren't even
Speaker 3: prepared for the dinner at night at like six thirty
Speaker 3: or seven o'clock. This time, same kind of thing happens.
Speaker 3: We don't really eat all day. We go to mister

Speaker 2: At the chop.
Speaker 1: House, dude, Yes, when so if you have the chop
Speaker 1: House at ann Arburn and Main Street, then you order
Speaker 1: the lobster bist. They bring you a plate with little

Speaker 1: down on Willians over goes, what the fuck is this?
Speaker 1: It's the bisk, bro, No, they gotta lean back and
Speaker 1: then they came in with that little tiny silver dish
Speaker 1: theme poured it all up in there. That was delicious.

Speaker 1: and hot wings. That is basically my man's diet. So
Speaker 1: he will not Will. Sorry, you're right, Hits.
Speaker 4: I gotta calm down. You're right, You're right.
Speaker 2: That's one thing I did learn about Will this weekend.
Speaker 1: I knew he was a snacker, but I don't know
Speaker 1: how much of a snacker Will was. Every time we
Speaker 1: came back to that damn hotel, he was rummaging through
Speaker 1: that snack drawer. Bro, you were going crazy on that fucking, ding,
Speaker 1: fucking pop tart one night. I literally looked at Will
Speaker 1: on Friday night and I go, hey, you don't need
Speaker 1: that pop tart, man, you know I'm gonna get it.
Speaker 1: I'm I just put it back. He's like, man, he
Speaker 1: looks at me after I hounded him like three minutes ago. Taylor,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna eat this. I'm gonna eat this.
Speaker 4: And then I want to make myself peys.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when you're drunk with a pop tar, JP.
Speaker 2: Is, I was gonna say.
Speaker 3: JP came in the next day and literally sitting next
Speaker 3: to my bed was uh a pop tar wrapper, a
Speaker 3: white claw in tail and all.
Speaker 2: That's so awesome. Davide what you got for us, Bob dude,
Speaker 2: this is so hard. Well, I don't do that. No,
Speaker 2: I just love all.
Speaker 5: Wings sauces so much, so I will start out Tier three.
Speaker 1: No honorable mention. If you love all those.
Speaker 5: Your sauce, I know, just because I was, I'm gonna
Speaker 5: be disrespecting several sauces. But my Tier three is gonna
Speaker 5: have to go to This is o to Rick Ross
Speaker 5: lemon pepper, Well, you gotta have some lemon pepper wings
Speaker 5: from wingstop preferably shout out Rick Ross, send this to him.
Speaker 5: Tier two gotta go with some sort of like sweet
Speaker 5: heat honey barbecue type sauce. But it can't be just
Speaker 5: strictly like the sweet sioca or whatever. There has to
Speaker 5: be a little bit of spice to it. And then
Speaker 5: Tier one the og original buffalo buffalo hot sauce with
Speaker 5: the wings.
Speaker 2: Gotta have it with the ranch. Gotta have all of
Speaker 2: them with the ranch.
Speaker 5: But if there's something about the buffalo wings dipped in
Speaker 5: the perfect ranch that just hits, so those are my
Speaker 5: that's my tear talking on wings.
Speaker 12: Mitch, oh m hm, delicious, classic, reliable, tasty, basic, underwhelming.
Speaker 1: You just left the back of the bus, Willie Baby,
Speaker 1: what you got.
Speaker 3: It is hard. I honestly I would have it. We
Speaker 3: can talk about afterwards. It is very hard. My honorable mention,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give an honorable mention to all the ones.
Speaker 3: I don't say, but I want to give an honorable
Speaker 3: mention to the saucy, the wet garlic PARMI Sean, I
Speaker 3: think there's a big difference in the way you do
Speaker 3: garlic parmajan wings. But them saucy boys my mouse water
Speaker 3: right now, you gotta you gotta thought an honorable mention there.
Speaker 3: And like the mango hopping arrows of the world is
Speaker 3: I want to get that one in there too.
Speaker 2: All right, all right, well, all right. My Tier three
Speaker 2: is going to be.
Speaker 3: And this is a battle between This is a battle
Speaker 3: between one and two. It's a battle between one, two
Speaker 3: and three. My Tier three is gonna be uh Asian zing.
Speaker 3: The Asian zing's from uh Buffalo wah wings. Those are
Speaker 3: my favorite sauce anytime I went to a Buffalo wild wings.
Speaker 3: But uh, the Asian style. I'm big into the Asian style.
Speaker 3: My Tier two. Like the gold sauce wings you talked
Speaker 3: about zips, Yes, yeah, the goldens there.
Speaker 4: McDougall's has a gold sauce that's very good.
Speaker 2: Those.
Speaker 3: Uh it's got like a little zinc any tang to it,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. But the gold sauce my
Speaker 3: Tier one. My favorite is uh, hot honey, anything with
Speaker 3: that that that sweet heat, That hot honey. Those are
Speaker 3: my favorite wings. It's bringing a smile to my face
Speaker 3: because I fucking that's.
Speaker 4: A good day. You get an order.
Speaker 3: Of about eighteen of them, boys, hoping nobody wants to
Speaker 3: share with you, because then you'd have to order six
Speaker 3: more just to like kind of offset that in dipped
Speaker 3: in ranch.
Speaker 4: Hot honeys. Those are my Tier one.
Speaker 13: JP relatable, different, solid, tangy, flavorful wet.
Speaker 2: That Okay.
Speaker 1: I would like to also give an honorable mention, and
Speaker 1: my honorable mention is going to Sweet Heat as well.
Speaker 1: I think there's a place for Sweet Heat. I think
Speaker 1: it's delicious and it was very difficult for me not
Speaker 1: to put it in my tier group. I think you
Speaker 1: hit that sweet and you add that heat, buddy, but
Speaker 1: I think it's incredible now I like to also say
Speaker 1: all my wings that I'm all the sauces. I'mbout to say,
Speaker 1: I need my wings extra saucy. That's just how I
Speaker 1: like to roll. So when you're envisioning this in your head,
Speaker 1: know that all them boys are drenched. My Tier three
Speaker 1: is spicy garlic. I think I love some heat, but
Speaker 1: for whatever reason, garlic to me is just a hitter.
Speaker 1: I'm my mouth is salivating. I was the same way
Speaker 1: Buffalo willow wings you go there. They were one of
Speaker 1: my go tos for sure. Every every single time if
Speaker 1: I was getting wings, it was spicy garlic and one
Speaker 1: other that will be mentioned next. So that is my
Speaker 1: tier three. My Tier two is garlic parmesan. I think
Speaker 1: it is so fucking good, and once again buffalo wallowings,
Speaker 1: but also mister Spots, those fucking garlic parmesan wings there,
Speaker 1: they were so saucy.
Speaker 3: Very good, very good, Goodjon garlic garlic parmajone one.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then everyone who's on this bus knows what
Speaker 1: my Tier one is. If I was on death row,
Speaker 1: this would be part of my order at Zips. It
Speaker 1: would be their golden wings, extra saucy, extra crispy. Those
Speaker 1: to me, are the greatest wings of all time. The
Speaker 1: greatest sauce of all time on a wing is specifically
Speaker 1: Zips golden sauce on wings.
Speaker 2: I think this has a hyphen bad breath.
Speaker 7: This one also has a hyphen mouth watering.
Speaker 10: Sauce droopy fire.
Speaker 3: Bitch made just kidding, a very good great.
Speaker 2: Be just for no thing.
Speaker 3: Oh oh the al saw JP my my criticism on yours.
Speaker 4: I would have enjoyed a more specific tier two.
Speaker 3: You kind of paint brushed it because a mango hobenn
Speaker 3: arrow and then a sweet spicy like you know, those
Speaker 3: are different levels.
Speaker 2: Of like heat too.
Speaker 5: You're right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've personally never been a big original guy. I
Speaker 3: could get drug for that, but yeah, like original buffalo
Speaker 3: my medium, any of it. I try, It's just I'm
Speaker 3: just not It's not a big fan unless it's like
Speaker 3: a like a homemade ship you dumpy. Obviously Frank's hot sauce,
Speaker 3: but a shipload of butter like really offsets that.
Speaker 2: Like hot sauce days.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's there's a place traditional buffaloings. I don't hite
Speaker 1: it at all. I just thought, like, well, you hit
Speaker 1: were like the base of all the all the ship
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Of all the wings you like,
Speaker 1: hit like the basic ones, but they're all good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you get two garlics.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well you had two garlics.
Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
Speaker 3: He said, spicy garlic. I'm getting this and one other
Speaker 3: than I'm ye, would that would be my question? You
Speaker 3: should no matter what, you're getting a spicy garlic and
Speaker 3: then obviously the golden wings.
Speaker 1: No, no, I get a spicy dock and the palm garlic.
Speaker 1: I like garlic, bro, I think that's so good.
Speaker 3: So you got golden, parmesan garlic, and spicy garlic on
Speaker 3: the menu, which till.
Speaker 1: You get I'm just getting golden double up. You can
Speaker 1: only what you get two flavors. If I got two.
Speaker 1: If I got two flavors, I do golden and I
Speaker 1: would do parmesan garlic, all right, But if you listen
Speaker 1: to my tears, you would know I would pick those
Speaker 1: two before I pick spicy garlic.
Speaker 2: I know, I just used threw in there.
Speaker 4: I'm getting spicy garlic with one of these other ones.
Speaker 2: Every time. Oh yeah, I said, I said. The next one,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I can totally understand why my list would
Speaker 1: be a little skewed with the garlic. It's just my
Speaker 1: palate garlic. I'm a palate, I'm a galla guy.
Speaker 2: Wing be a.
Speaker 4: Good engagement one because everybody's got there.
Speaker 2: It was on a short notice too, I know. Yeah
Speaker 2: that was good. That was real good.
Speaker 4: I love hot honey, love hot honey.
Speaker 2: I can't believe zips mander too. That's crazy.
Speaker 3: What do you mean made my two like not one? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: they're they're solid. But truly if I see like a
Speaker 3: sweet heater or a hot honey like that is no
Speaker 3: matter what, always getting chosen.
Speaker 1: Oh what's it called? What's the place we abas go
Speaker 1: to strike out? And they got some sweet heat there.
Speaker 1: That's really good. That's probably the best.
Speaker 2: One in the menu.
Speaker 4: They actually have a good lemon pepper.
Speaker 1: Their lemon pepper is yeah, I'm not a big lemberg, yes,
Speaker 1: but his lemon pepper or saucy. I was not a
Speaker 1: dry rub guy, and usually lemon pepper is dry rup.
Speaker 3: Yeah, garlic promesan can be dry rub. You gotta really
Speaker 3: really make sure they're sprinkle like that. I cook him
Speaker 3: with garlic and.
Speaker 4: Them so mad like now, wings are so overrated.
Speaker 1: That is gonna be a hot TAKEE. But I agree wholeheartedly.
Speaker 2: Didn't they let you didn't they let you make your own.
Speaker 3: They let you combine sauces. Yeah, but they already got
Speaker 3: their menu too.
Speaker 8: We did the Sweet Heat with the dipped in lemon pepper.
Speaker 8: We did one time.
Speaker 1: Oh, I hope that's carno if that's what that's carnifor.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 3: If that sauce is. Hey, awesome episode with Michael Chandler.

Speaker 2: now we're on the mic. I still wanted to get
Speaker 2: that one in. Yeah, I feel you. I feel good.
Speaker 2: You know you uh part of it because.
Speaker 1: When you're watching when you were watching the fight, and
Speaker 1: I actually I want to go like through everything like
Speaker 1: your thought processes, because I thought when you walked out,
Speaker 1: you looked we were all saying, the boy looks loose,
Speaker 1: like you looked like there was not a piece of
Speaker 1: stress on you. But during that flight, my boys, you
Speaker 1: started leaking heavy, you started putting all of your blood
Speaker 1: on the back of that man's head. And seeing that
Speaker 1: fight and then seeing you now, I would say you
Speaker 1: look fantastic.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I was in a hyperbaric chaman this morning. Helped,
Speaker 2: and I do I do heal really quick.
Speaker 3: You got the face mask, the face mask photo where
Speaker 3: you got the you know, you taking care of your.
Speaker 2: Face a little bit and put the face mask on
Speaker 2: a couple of times, already iced a couple of times,
Speaker 2: tons of inflamma, anti inflammatories, a lot of Tumorico Creeman,
Speaker 2: Kirk Cuman. Just pump all that like crazy the next
Speaker 2: week or two and do you like a little bit
Speaker 2: of do you like? Wake up and you're like fuck,
Speaker 2: oh dude, yeah, I sneezed in like my core just
Speaker 2: from just from bearing down and kicking, bearing down and
Speaker 2: punching bearing down and getting punched neck jaw abs. I
Speaker 2: mean everything head to toe basically, everything hurt. Everything, anything
Speaker 2: that didn't hurt, no peep blood after which is normal?
Speaker 2: Really you said it's normal, rap though, Yeah, whenever, I
Speaker 2: whenever you go through those hard like, yeah, those fifteen minutes,
Speaker 2: this is almost like thirteen minutes or whatever it was.
Speaker 2: So yeah, just get a little bloody or you're in
Speaker 2: just to make you feel alive. Have you peopleloed before? No,
Speaker 2: it's a very painful experience, and there were people of
Speaker 2: Mine wasn't painful. Mine's just red. Must have sometime it
Speaker 2: was green. I don't remember. I don't know why that happened.
Speaker 2: You say it was green. It was green. I don't know.
Speaker 2: After an IV. No, it was after just after one
Speaker 2: of my fights. Really, I still need to ask. I've
Speaker 2: asked numerous doctors and medical professionals, like I have no
Speaker 2: idea what that was. I mean neither, But I'm still alive.
Speaker 4: I just I can't believe you're here on the bus
Speaker 4: right now.
Speaker 2: I'm looking. I'm always on the bus. Probably two nights ago,
Speaker 2: we're in a fight, landed yesterday. Yeah, have you.
Speaker 3: Been feeling like since the fight, like mentally not obviously
Speaker 3: not physically, like you just talked about that, but like mentally,
Speaker 3: how have you been.
Speaker 2: Dude, good. I mean, I not to downplay a loss,
Speaker 2: because man, you know we're winners. We want to win
Speaker 2: what you want to do. But dude, I we've talked
Speaker 2: about this before I had I'm in my second career now.
Speaker 2: My previous career was before outside of the UFC. A
Speaker 2: new career is inside the UFC. Inside of the UFC,
Speaker 2: I have fought five of the toughest dudes on the
Speaker 2: entire planet. At one hundred and fifty five pounds, the
Speaker 2: who's who of the guys who compete in my weight class.
Speaker 2: You're gonna win, You're gonna lose when you lose. If
Speaker 2: you lose in a way that I did with a
Speaker 2: fight like that against the number two guy in the world.
Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of people that think my
Speaker 2: stock continues or eyes and now we just kind of
Speaker 2: sit back and see, you know what happens. Once again,
Speaker 2: it's not always about the wins and losses, about how
Speaker 2: you make people feel. I think people felt something. People
Speaker 2: feel something, not just you know, at MS, but around
Speaker 2: the world. The highlights are everywhere. I think people appreciate
Speaker 2: my contribution to mixed martial arts, the sport of mixed
Speaker 2: martial arts. I think is better with me in the
Speaker 2: UFC right now, and things are going really really well
Speaker 2: at the last twenty four hours hanging out with my family.
Speaker 2: Took hap to school this morning. It's all the teachers
Speaker 2: that I always see, and they're like, hey, how are Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm doing good. How you guys doing good?
Speaker 2: To see U. I'll pick them up today after this
Speaker 2: walk over there because it is a nice day. And
Speaker 2: then see all them and a lot of them have
Speaker 2: seen the fight, I'm sure. So it's just fun. Man,
Speaker 2: life is good, feel great.
Speaker 1: It's a weird thought process thinking about you going to
Speaker 1: see like your kids and the teachers, because that doesn't happen.
Speaker 1: Doesn't happen for everybody like that. So many schools teachers
Speaker 1: are saying just no disrespect. People that are working at
Speaker 1: reilar nine to five jobs in and out. They look
Speaker 1: the same every single day. And then these teachers know
Speaker 1: your kid, so they have some sort of personal bond
Speaker 1: to you. I'm sure they're sitting there paying the fifty
Speaker 1: five dollars or whatever it is for pay per view
Speaker 1: watching you go. And so you just and the way
Speaker 1: you just surround people, the way you operate and the
Speaker 1: way you hold yourself when you're around people, people root
Speaker 1: for you, like the boys. When we were at the
Speaker 1: Brown Jung after the game, there was one individual who
Speaker 1: was a thrower, shot put whatever he does for Michigan.
Speaker 1: And at first it was fun because he didn't know
Speaker 1: we're boys with you, and he's like, I got poorier
Speaker 1: and I'm like, sure, you do so words tripping a
Speaker 1: little bit, and then he really started getting into it
Speaker 1: and I was like, there might be a UFC fight
Speaker 1: in this in this Brown jug right now. But that's
Speaker 1: how you know this guy, your your personality, how you operate,
Speaker 1: is it definitely.
Speaker 2: You humanize the game to people like you.
Speaker 1: Like when people watch individuals fight or play football or hockey,
Speaker 1: it's all like these are heroes, these are individuals that
Speaker 1: it's unattainable. And then when you're around you're like, you
Speaker 1: make it more human because of how like you don't
Speaker 1: act like you're better than everybody.
Speaker 2: You have a very you're very calm.
Speaker 1: And stay right here at all times, and it's a
Speaker 1: very impressive thing to do with all the success you
Speaker 1: fid in your life.
Speaker 2: Well thank you, yeah, I mean I didn't. I yeah,
Speaker 2: it's it's funny too, because when you're in it, you
Speaker 2: don't really think about the success. I don't know, I
Speaker 2: don't really think about the success that much. I'm just
Speaker 2: just kind of living, you know. I'm kind of like
Speaker 2: going doing my thing. Hey, what's my job? My job
Speaker 2: is to be father and husband until I going to
Speaker 2: training camp. Then it's be a fighter and also come
Speaker 2: home on the weekends be father husband. But you know,
Speaker 2: it's it's cool, like I know, tailing because Taylor was there.
Speaker 2: For everybody who doesn't know Taylor, your wife was there
Speaker 2: was awesome, so I was glad that she got to.
Speaker 1: It was looking electric. Will even point it out, well,
Speaker 1: do you see how hot your wife?
Speaker 2: It was cool. They they had so our stylist our,
Speaker 2: our mutual look.
Speaker 4: At my wife.
Speaker 1: I was like, come on, buddy, Taylor sent a picture
Speaker 1: of I was like yes, I was like yeah, they Yeah.
Speaker 2: They were all decked out because Christa was there. She
Speaker 2: got her so they had Megan Megan Fox's uh makeup
Speaker 2: artists come to hotel. They all got all dolled up.
Speaker 2: She rode over to the venue with us, so she
Speaker 2: was taken care of.
Speaker 1: I heard her the first time that uh Brie was
Speaker 1: escorted with you first time, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 1: I'm kind of just like here being escorted and it's
Speaker 1: his experiences.
Speaker 2: For the first time it was and it's uh when
Speaker 2: it's not because we don't want Bri to be there
Speaker 2: escorted with me. She actually she gets because you you
Speaker 2: go to the fights and I'm always later on the card.
Speaker 2: So you watch those first ten fights before me. You
Speaker 2: see dudes get knocked out, you see arms get broken,
Speaker 2: you see guys who were supposed to win lose, and
Speaker 2: this anxiety level just starts rising and rising. So she
Speaker 2: likes to get there if I'm fighting at eleven, she
Speaker 2: likes to get there at like nine thirty, ten o'clock. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but this time it didn't really work out that way.
Speaker 2: She we wanted. It's New York. It's hard to get around.
Speaker 2: I had security with me at all times, a guy
Speaker 2: named Drew NonStop. I couldn't leave my room without him
Speaker 2: escorting me somewhere. So I was like, hey, let's have
Speaker 2: you with me. Why don't you guys come over to
Speaker 2: the venue with me. They came over to the venue
Speaker 2: like three hours early, which is not normal for her,
Speaker 2: So it was, uh, it was good. It was very
Speaker 2: very cool for her to We walked in the arena
Speaker 2: hand in hand. She was looking foreign, and uh, if
Speaker 2: it happened, it was good.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I just I think it's because you've obviously been
Speaker 3: on the pod what four or five times now, You've
Speaker 3: only come on pretty much after the fight's over, and
Speaker 3: it's very much like appreciated you willing to come on
Speaker 3: like this fast after a fight, especially when this is
Speaker 3: gonna drop tomorrow. But I'm just curious, like you, each
Speaker 3: time you've came, you came after a win, you came
Speaker 3: after a loss, You've said all the stuff like you
Speaker 3: the way you the way you grab a hold of
Speaker 3: perspective is like it's very admirable. Like I think you're
Speaker 3: like one of the best dudes out there. I love
Speaker 3: hearing your perspective on everything. I think you rub off
Speaker 3: on us, Like I just always appreciate it. But I
Speaker 3: want to dive inside your head, like after that fight's over,
Speaker 3: you can spin it any way the entertaining I lose
Speaker 3: this way that way, but are you just like fuck man,
Speaker 3: I'm so goddamn it gets so fucking close, because you
Speaker 3: could have there's parts where you're like, you know you
Speaker 3: get gas in the first round because you had you
Speaker 3: had an opportunity. You're like putting them down. This motherfucker's
Speaker 3: just taking shots. Were literally like, and I know Jack
Speaker 3: was like rolling the phone on us in the back.
Speaker 3: We're starting to jump like it's about to be over,
Speaker 3: and for whatever reason, that motherfucker just wouldn't go and
Speaker 3: you're out of it. You're obviously you're obviously wearing yourself
Speaker 3: out more because you're you're seeing the opportunity.
Speaker 2: You're trying to finish him.
Speaker 3: You're trying to wrestle him even more down so you
Speaker 3: can get on top of him and stuff. And when
Speaker 3: it just doesn't happen, are you just like before you
Speaker 3: grab the perspective, are you just like, fuck man, Like,
Speaker 3: when is it gonna just flip? When's the ball gonna
Speaker 3: just bounce my way for a second in one of
Speaker 3: these big situations where you're like right fucking there.
Speaker 1: Because what you were like it was also similar with
Speaker 1: ol of Aarra, right like that first round where I'm
Speaker 1: at Will's house and we're like, oh, this is over
Speaker 1: and this is the way the game goes. Sometimes stuff
Speaker 1: flips on a dime, like not only after but like
Speaker 1: after that first round round you had him, he was
Speaker 1: in that corner. You literally it was like, he's won
Speaker 1: the first round.
Speaker 2: We knew that. We know he's won the first round.
Speaker 3: He bounced back in the first Yeah yeah no, but yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: bounce back.
Speaker 2: You tell both these duser gas.
Speaker 3: You're just like, man, Mike just comes out in the
Speaker 3: early innes Sea round because you could tell dudes or gas.
Speaker 3: And again like I'm always that boost this morning explaining
Speaker 3: to people. I'm like, dude, you're trying to like wrestle
Speaker 3: be on the offense wrestling this guy because you had
Speaker 3: the opportunity, and it just it takes so much out
Speaker 3: of you.
Speaker 2: I apologize, I kind of stole your.
Speaker 1: Thought No, no, no, I we went back and forth on that. Basically,
Speaker 1: it was it was like not only your thought process
Speaker 1: after when the when the the experiences concluded, but just
Speaker 1: in the middle of the fight, like in that first round,
Speaker 1: how it went. Where was your mindset at what were
Speaker 1: you thinking? And then also at the end, what Will
Speaker 1: was trying to say is where like when you're like, damn,
Speaker 1: it's like when is this gonna bounce my way? Cause
Speaker 1: there there are those two fights now off the top
Speaker 1: of my head where we're talking about a whole totally
Speaker 1: different situation. Were Oliver you knock him out, that's done.
Speaker 1: That you could have took poorer out done, And it's
Speaker 1: just this is not like a slight like, oh man,
Speaker 1: you could you couldn't finish. I'm just saying, like, does
Speaker 1: that weigh on you?
Speaker 2: Yeah? It does because well and that's that's the other
Speaker 2: thing too, Like when you talk about you're fighting the
Speaker 2: best guys in the world, and the best guys in
Speaker 2: the world aren't just they aren't just technical, they aren't
Speaker 2: just good fighters. They're also extremely tough, you know not,
Speaker 2: and not just tough and all, they're also just they've
Speaker 2: they've been whether it's luck, whether it's chance, whether it's
Speaker 2: just genetically, they're able to withstand the beating that I'm
Speaker 2: that I put on them. And same thing with me
Speaker 2: as well. I mean, like Poria said after the fight,
Speaker 2: he it surprised him how durable I was. We're just
Speaker 2: when you're in there and you're in the spirit of
Speaker 2: competition and you are something wells something up inside of you,
Speaker 2: you are outside of yourself. You are not I am
Speaker 2: not Michael Chandler sitting there, I am a being that
Speaker 2: just has an indomitable spirit, and you don't you don't
Speaker 2: go down, you know, like you said, in that first round,
Speaker 2: Pore was hurt. I went for the finish it obviously,
Speaker 2: you know, I had to throw everything at him. But
Speaker 2: I do remember after the fight too, because they bring
Speaker 2: you back and you know, everybody's just you know, don't
Speaker 2: hang your head. You know, we hear that all the time,
Speaker 2: whether it's a hard fought game, whether it's a hard,
Speaker 2: hard fought fight, but you know, you just yeah, it's
Speaker 2: just it's sad. You know, I cried, cried like a
Speaker 2: little baby, which is also just awesome too. It's awesome
Speaker 2: moments that you get to enjoy. Is it. Is it painful,
Speaker 2: of course, but it's also just like when when the
Speaker 2: high of the of the victory or defeat, or the
Speaker 2: high of the competition comes down and it starts to
Speaker 2: starts to hit in it and it's over and you
Speaker 2: miss it. You know, you miss it. You miss that
Speaker 2: that opportunity that you had, whether you missed the opportunity
Speaker 2: to win, but also you also just miss it. You
Speaker 2: you you aren't yearned for that competition that that we
Speaker 2: just had, you know, and the high comes down, the
Speaker 2: adrenaline comes down, and the human emotion starts getting into it.
Speaker 2: And it was, Uh, it was sad, but it was
Speaker 2: also beautiful, like it makes you feel alive. I said
Speaker 2: that in the postfight press conference, and everybody's like, no,
Speaker 2: you don't need to do the press conference. You don't
Speaker 2: need to. You know, you're fine, You don't you need
Speaker 2: to the hospital you need I'm just like, no, I'm good.
Speaker 2: I told them I don't want to go to the hospital.
Speaker 2: Don't need you to the hospital. I get on the microphone,
Speaker 2: win or lose, and uh, because I think that's what
Speaker 2: people want to see too. I mean, somewhere between the
Speaker 2: craziness of the competition and the guy that I am
Speaker 2: inside the cage and also just the the person I
Speaker 2: am outside of the competition is the kind of the
Speaker 2: real me where I've talked about living on both ends
Speaker 2: of the spectrum of crazy, just the crazy juxtaposition between
Speaker 2: the two and man, it's just this is my story
Speaker 2: that I'm writing and a masterpiece that I'm painting for
Speaker 2: my sons to be able to see someday, you know,
Speaker 2: and they're going to say, that's who my dad was
Speaker 2: and I won't have to tell them because they're going
Speaker 2: to see it all. They're gonna hear it all. They're
Speaker 2: gonna be able to watch it all. Yeah, they're It's
Speaker 2: gonna propel them and push them towards what they want
Speaker 2: to be. But it's freaking yeah. It sucks. Man sucks losing.
Speaker 2: But but did I lose? You know? I mean I
Speaker 2: saw what Taylan said to Breed too. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I lost, but I'm winning what you said, I'm winning.
Speaker 2: I didn't win, but I'm winning. I'm winning at the
Speaker 2: game of life. I'm winning at I'm winning at being
Speaker 2: the guy in the arena that everybody can point fingers at,
Speaker 2: laugh at, throw venom at that can that can make
Speaker 2: fun of and make memes about. But here I am
Speaker 2: ten toes down, pumped up about my life, love, my family, love,
Speaker 2: my love, my calling, love, what I get to do
Speaker 2: with two black guys. Possibly a broken nose. We'll see
Speaker 2: what happens with all these scans and X rays. Who knows,
Speaker 2: But I live to fight another day, either physically or metaphorically.
Speaker 7: Yea.
Speaker 1: We interrupt this episode to bring you whistle pig whiskey.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of whiskeys out there that are delicious,
Speaker 1: but some burn more than others, tastes more different than others.
Speaker 1: Whistle Pig whiskey and Rye honestly is phenomenal. But in
Speaker 1: our opinion, the greatest whiskey that has ever been created
Speaker 1: is in will confidence hands. And that is our and
Speaker 1: that is our new busting with the boys. Whistle Pig whiskey. Dude,
Speaker 1: this thing and I've been told and I've tasted hints
Speaker 1: a carmel talking about toasted almonds, roasted almonds.
Speaker 4: Victory Monday latte.
Speaker 3: You're gonna feel a little heat up front, and you're
Speaker 3: gonna be a little nervous, Like, what's is gonna be
Speaker 3: like going down my throat and it's gonna nestle down
Speaker 3: your throat nice and smooth. I'm not shooting you. I
Speaker 3: know I'm trying to sell this right now, but I'm
Speaker 3: not showting you. It's very smooth whiskey. And I'll sit
Speaker 3: warmly on the top of you or something when you
Speaker 3: get done. These are out any carrier, any retail store
Speaker 3: that carries whistle Pig. Somebody just hit us at Michigan
Speaker 3: over the weekend. Hey, we just bought three bottles of
Speaker 3: your whiskey is at Costco. So check out any retail
Speaker 3: source that carries liquor. If they carry whistle Pig, they're
Speaker 3: going to have our bourbon. Because there's how many states
Speaker 3: that you can't order during this sixteen states.
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, Tennessee happens to be one of them. Yeah, Tennessee's one.
Speaker 1: I know, Michigan's won.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of big states that our audience is
Speaker 3: in that are like, holy shit, why can't we buy
Speaker 3: Why can't we order your bourbon online? There's a legal
Speaker 3: thing going on. There's a legal thing to where they
Speaker 3: can't ship it too that state. However, any retail store
Speaker 3: in your state, all retail stores in your state that
Speaker 3: carry a whistle Pig carries this bourbon. So go to
Speaker 3: any retail store, any local retailer that carries whistle Pig.
Speaker 4: Call ahead, Hey, you guys carry whistle Pig. The answer
Speaker 4: is yes.
Speaker 3: Take your family, take yourself, go right over to the
Speaker 3: retail store and our bourbon will be there. Click the
Speaker 3: link in our YouTube description to buy it now to
Speaker 3: see if you can buy it online, but if not,
Speaker 3: go to a retail store right before the weekend hits
Speaker 3: and buy our bourbon.
Speaker 4: Back to the episode, I think that's the cool part.
Speaker 2: Though.
Speaker 3: You let you again like going and doing the press
Speaker 3: or after like doing this, you know within forty eight
Speaker 3: hours after like you allow people to look find the
Speaker 3: curtain on it, and it is like a roller coaster, right,
Speaker 3: Like it's not like you're taking all this time to
Speaker 3: like find the right thing to say or the right
Speaker 3: way to do it or this is.
Speaker 2: There is no right time and there is no right It's.
Speaker 3: Cool because every that's what every human kind of goes
Speaker 3: through anyway, Like they're always battling in for you to
Speaker 3: like show yourself no matter whether it's sad, it's it's
Speaker 3: the craziest.
Speaker 4: The human guy. I was a being here. I'm crying
Speaker 4: at this point.
Speaker 3: I'm bleeding death taxes and Mike Chandler bleeding in a
Speaker 3: fight is forever. But I know, I think it's I
Speaker 3: think it's really cool man. Again, Like I appreciate you
Speaker 3: sharing all this stuff because I'm just always super interested,
Speaker 3: like like at the end of the first round when
Speaker 3: he catches you or you just like motherfucker or in
Speaker 3: that like I'm thinking sometimes like say you're on a
Speaker 3: long drive defensively you know, you're like in the beginning,
Speaker 3: you're juice, You're going and you say you're in the
Speaker 3: middle of a game. Sometimes when you get backed up
Speaker 3: in the red zone, you're like fuck man, like, hopefully
Speaker 3: somebody else makes a play or hopefully they fuck up
Speaker 3: to where you're not, Like, we're not always so programmed
Speaker 3: to be the most positive person in that time frame,
Speaker 3: Like the human side kicks in fatigue, makes cowers of
Speaker 3: us all like, was there a moment you probably it
Speaker 3: probably wouldn't happen, but is there a moment after the
Speaker 3: first round you're catching your breath's like, motherfucker, Like I
Speaker 3: need to come out here because this is kind of
Speaker 3: what I have left in the tank and because I'm
Speaker 3: I'm starting to bottom out condition wise because you threw
Speaker 3: so much atom in that first round. Like I'm curious
Speaker 3: what goes on in those in those like when you're wrestling,
Speaker 3: you're up somebody after two pairs of the third piers
Speaker 3: coming and you kind of feel the incoming and you're like,
Speaker 3: I need to either make something shake or try to
Speaker 3: like to me isy in that last in that last round,
Speaker 3: you can tell he's kind of leaning like let's just
Speaker 3: let's get through this round, versus like Lens winning because
Speaker 3: he's winning, like does the strategy and those moments change
Speaker 3: because you're just feeling your lungs, you're seeing, you're feeling
Speaker 3: the blood like he kind.
Speaker 2: Of shook me at the end. Yeah no, And that's
Speaker 2: and I think that's been the biggest criticism of me
Speaker 2: and how I fight. And people will call it fight IQ,
Speaker 2: but I think it's just it's my spirit. It's it's
Speaker 2: who I am. Like I've I've never once thought, Okay,
Speaker 2: let me just get through this round. I never once thought, hey,
Speaker 2: let's play it safe. I've never once thought, let's hit
Speaker 2: the brakes a little bit. And would I probably win
Speaker 2: more fights. Could I have been a world champion if
Speaker 2: I've done that. Probably, But it's just not who I am,
Speaker 2: you know. So after the first round, second round, I
Speaker 2: wanted to get a takedown, got the takedown in the
Speaker 2: second round, beat him up a little bit on the
Speaker 2: ground at that point, my nose gushing. I mean that's
Speaker 2: the other thing too. I mean, fatigue makes cours of
Speaker 2: you all. And you're talking about fatigue when you can
Speaker 2: breath through your nose and your mouth. I didn't breathe
Speaker 2: through my nose the last you know, eleven minutes of
Speaker 2: that fight. You know, my mouth wide open. With the
Speaker 2: mouth wide open too.
Speaker 1: Yeah, button gets a little bigger at that button gets
Speaker 1: a little bit bigger, and and.
Speaker 2: And dust and poorier is a is a. He's a
Speaker 2: very precise striker. He's very good at He's very good
Speaker 2: at just pinpoint accuracy punches and bunches when he gets
Speaker 2: guys hurt. You know, he wasn't wasn't able to to
Speaker 2: finish me on the feet, obviously, But yeah, it's uh, dude,
Speaker 2: it was just uh massive square garden is beautiful and
Speaker 2: it's amazing, but it sucks so bad. I still didn't
Speaker 2: hear my coaches can't hear a thing. Your lungs are
Speaker 2: shaking from just the atmosphere in there. It's it's absolutely
Speaker 2: I don't want to fight there ever. Again. I'm now
Speaker 2: zero and three there, you know, so uh yeah, so
Speaker 2: uh it's just uh fourth one though, unless it's Connor
Speaker 2: next year, we'll see you. But uh, you know, I
Speaker 2: uh it's it's it's the craziest place to fight ever,
Speaker 2: and it's it's uh, it's you can't explain it, you know,
Speaker 2: I'm sure there's an arena that a stadium they all
Speaker 2: have played in where you're just like this is this
Speaker 2: is different, but massa Garden is that.
Speaker 1: You know, It's so hard to compare the two things
Speaker 1: because it's the most obvious difference is it's team sport
Speaker 1: versus individual and there you can't get I can't get
Speaker 1: cused from the sideline, like do this differently, Like there's
Speaker 1: a there's a break, there's an intermission between each play,
Speaker 1: between each play, Yeah, but there is. There are stadiums obviously,
Speaker 1: like Kansas City is Seattle. Those you just know it's
Speaker 1: gonna be a little bit different, Like in twenty nineteen
Speaker 1: against the Ravens. It just it's loud, but there's you
Speaker 1: prepare for that because you know what you're going into.
Speaker 1: So there's a different cadence. There's a different way we
Speaker 1: know what we're about to do. There's things Tannehill or
Speaker 1: Mariota would do and say to make sure you know
Speaker 1: what you're supposed to do in that play. So very
Speaker 1: difficult to compare those things. But so you're Vegas, Vegas
Speaker 1: or bust guy.
Speaker 2: Now, I well, first of all, I have to fight
Speaker 2: in Vegas, like I still haven't fought in Vegas. Yeah,
Speaker 2: fighting in the UFC now, I fifth fight in the UFC.
Speaker 2: Haven't fought there yet, so that would be I have
Speaker 2: to fight in Vegas before I hang out the gloves.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I need my next fighting is to be
Speaker 2: in Vegas.
Speaker 1: But what you can happen, We'll call some people JP. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I guess JFP Cam.
Speaker 2: What do you think about?
Speaker 3: What do you think about some of the people that
Speaker 3: feel like you were fighting dirty in that fight, Like
Speaker 3: people talked about you hitting them in the back of
Speaker 3: the head. You're obviously like when you're gushing blood, you're
Speaker 3: gainst them on his face. I think it's fucking, you
Speaker 3: know awesome. The fish hooked to try. Well, that meant
Speaker 3: him out, Like can you speak on that?
Speaker 2: Like, well the blood, Yeah, the blood thing. The blood thing.
Speaker 2: First of all, that's not dirty or illegal. And second
Speaker 2: of all, he had me in a triangle. My head
Speaker 2: was over his face and my nose was gushing blood.
Speaker 2: Was I trying to clear my nose and trying to
Speaker 2: breathe and trying to survive? Yeah, you know, so if
Speaker 2: blood was gonna get on his face, sorry my bad,
Speaker 2: but no, yes, I did. I thought well it was well, no.
Speaker 1: First of all, it looked like he was you were
Speaker 1: making a painting, you were making a Jackson Paul on
Speaker 1: his face.
Speaker 2: Well, it's like, well, it's kind of like, well, hey,
Speaker 2: if you're if you're if you're content to lay there
Speaker 2: and you're content to try to get this submission, which
Speaker 2: nobody I knew he wasn't gonna get it, but he
Speaker 2: was just gonna lay there and he was buying his
Speaker 2: buying his time. Uh, you're gonna you know, get rained
Speaker 2: on and possibly you know, the snot rockets were going
Speaker 2: to come out because it was just gushing and it
Speaker 2: was it was all coaggulating inside there. And also I'm
Speaker 2: trying to breathe at the same time. You can hear
Speaker 2: me still Snow, you're both trying to kill each exactly,
Speaker 2: you know. So it's a little bit uh, you know,
Speaker 2: all all three of those things you just brought up,
Speaker 2: little bit unfair for the armchair quarterback to say the
Speaker 2: back of the head thing. Did one or two of
Speaker 2: those punches catch his head, Yes, after he turned his head,
Speaker 2: but I was catching his ear with every single one
Speaker 2: of them. That's why the referee was there watching the
Speaker 2: entire time. Monologue. He said, watch the back of the
Speaker 2: head as soon as As soon as he did, I said,
Speaker 2: I caught. I caught his ear, you know. And then
Speaker 2: after that, was there any more punches in the back
Speaker 2: of the head. No, All of them were clean, except
Speaker 2: for maybe one or two after he turned his head.
Speaker 2: And that's actually a part of mixed martial arts that
Speaker 2: we are told if a guy turns his head. If
Speaker 2: the guy turns his head in order for you to
Speaker 2: punch him in the back of the head, you get
Speaker 2: those one or two shots. You get the You get
Speaker 2: those one or two shots because you you didn't do
Speaker 2: it intentionally. The actual head moved. It was ear ear,
Speaker 2: he turned back of the head. Okay, now there's your warning.
Speaker 2: Don't hit in the back of the head anymore. So
Speaker 2: completely fine. The fishhook thing was not a fish hook.
Speaker 2: A fish hook is on the lip and on the skin.
Speaker 2: It was actually on his mouth beach with which I
Speaker 2: actually thought was his chin. I reached down and grabbed
Speaker 2: here because I was gonna pull the chin up Connor
Speaker 2: saw I was training in a ton that week. Reached down,
Speaker 2: grabbed the chin, lift the head and go for it.
Speaker 2: I thought I had his chin, but it turns out
Speaker 2: I was in his mouth and I didn't really realize
Speaker 2: it until he bit down on my hand and I
Speaker 2: was like, oh, shoot, okay, and at that point my
Speaker 2: elbow was stuck on the you know. So, I mean,
Speaker 2: you're also.
Speaker 3: You're in the fucking you're both trying to fight while
Speaker 3: also trying to like, all right, I have you know,
Speaker 3: You're just you're all trying to like figure out your
Speaker 3: gas thing too. When he's turning his head or when
Speaker 3: he knows he's trying to try and get you in
Speaker 3: a submission, he knows.
Speaker 2: He's probably not gonna get it.
Speaker 3: You're probably just trying to sit there like I just
Speaker 3: need to catch my breath for a little bit.
Speaker 2: Also, there's there's a times too where it's like people
Speaker 2: can watch it and they can watch stuff in slow
Speaker 2: mode and they can say, oh my god, I can't
Speaker 2: believe he did that. And you're like, when you're on
Speaker 2: the line or you're taking it doing a tackle, you
Speaker 2: don't know where your hands, where your feet are, what
Speaker 2: you're grabbing, what you're You're just you're in the moment,
Speaker 2: you're in the motion, you're in literal hand to hand combat,
Speaker 2: so you don't know what your hands are doing, what
Speaker 2: your feet are doing. You know, if you blatantly head
Speaker 2: butt somebody, okay, if you blatantly punched some one of
Speaker 2: the nuts. Yeah, but these things where you're grabbing and
Speaker 2: you're you know, there's times where you're you're grabbing a
Speaker 2: guy's grabbing a guy's glove. You don't realize you're grabbing
Speaker 2: a glove. You think you're grabbing a wrist because you're
Speaker 2: not really, you're not thinking clearly.
Speaker 1: So I'm sure the ref understand that, and there's someone knowledge.
Speaker 2: That's why they're there. Their eyes are on it, and
Speaker 2: there's warnings if you they you're grabbing a glove or
Speaker 2: you're grabbing a mouthpiece, you're grabbing whatever. Then then the
Speaker 2: ref steps and he's like okay, shoot, okay, sorry. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So I mean I'm not I'm not that worried about
Speaker 2: it because people who know me know I'm not a
Speaker 2: dirty fighter. Like we're in the heat of combat as well,
Speaker 2: so it's like whatever.
Speaker 1: When uh so you're talking about a lot about armchair quarterbacks.
Speaker 1: But after the fight, it did seem like there was
Speaker 1: some sort of tension. I feel like, boy, you got
Speaker 1: in your face and then all of a sudden said
Speaker 1: something super nice to you, and you kind of just
Speaker 1: gave them the dap up and walked away, like yeah,
Speaker 1: that was always well, yeah, after the fight, what was
Speaker 1: that whole experience like, because you're You're like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: did you say this because the tailor told me you were, like, hey,
Speaker 1: I was gonna shake his hand no matter what.
Speaker 2: Did you say that publicly? I said that publicly and
Speaker 2: then I went over to do it, and then I'm yeah,
Speaker 2: and then I don't. Really, I'm not the kind of
Speaker 2: guy who's gonna, you know, be in his cereal right now.
Speaker 2: He he I feel like he could have been a
Speaker 2: better sport about the guy that he just beat, coming
Speaker 2: over to him to congratulate him, and he wasn't. So
Speaker 2: I walked away, So I said some choice words walked away.
Speaker 2: He kind of chased me down to like because he
Speaker 2: knew he was being a d bag. Yeah, and then uh,
Speaker 2: then he kind of tried to squash it. Then I
Speaker 2: kind of trolled trolled him a little bit. I tripped
Speaker 2: at him a little bit, and then uh, and then.
Speaker 1: You need to beat That's necessary, you know, Yeah, that's necessary.
Speaker 2: He loves win lose the necessary, you know, because I mean, yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's part of it too. Man, I
Speaker 2: don't know. I'm just I love winning. I don't like losing.
Speaker 2: But I also I don't really care that much. Man.
Speaker 2: I always say too, my God still loves me, my
Speaker 2: family still loves me, and I still love me, and
Speaker 2: but the boys still loved me whether I win or lose.
Speaker 2: So I'm like, I'm sick cure in myself, and I
Speaker 2: think a lot of people can't really accept that or
Speaker 2: think or they think that it's they think that it's
Speaker 2: not genuine. So all I can be is authentically as myself.
Speaker 1: And yeah, have you how did it take you to
Speaker 1: get to that point where you always like that really lessen?
Speaker 1: I love myself, my family loves me, God loves me.
Speaker 1: Or was it I hate losing more than I love winning?
Speaker 1: At some points?
Speaker 2: No, I mean I I mean I was insecure for
Speaker 2: a very very long time, had a very lowly view
Speaker 2: of myself. And we've talked about my self image and
Speaker 2: my self image problems for years and years and years.
Speaker 2: Never thought that I would ever even come close to
Speaker 2: being here under the bright lights and cameras and Madison
Speaker 2: Square garden and fighting for titles and stuff. I think
Speaker 2: it's just been we underestimate how long it takes to
Speaker 2: get to that point. And we're all just continually evolving
Speaker 2: beings who are being just being chipped away and molded
Speaker 2: by all of our experiences. You know, I think when
Speaker 2: I was, when I was younger, I just wanted to win, win, win,
Speaker 2: And now I'm just like, I love winning, and I train.
Speaker 2: I think I train harder and I prepare harder than
Speaker 2: everyone else. I deserve to win. And then but when
Speaker 2: the bright lights come on and then it's time to
Speaker 2: that case door closes, it's not even really up to
Speaker 2: me at that point in time. You know, the the
Speaker 2: outcome is gonna take care of itself. So then I
Speaker 2: also just throw throw it kind of out there and
Speaker 2: let it fly. And you know, I could, I could
Speaker 2: be probably a little bit more strategic, as we talked about,
Speaker 2: like with an like an israel Ota Sonia or one
Speaker 2: of these guys. Don't be that strategic. Yeah, it'll get
Speaker 2: boring quick, yeah, you know. And yeah, I mean I
Speaker 2: probably could have won some more fights, but I am
Speaker 2: who I am, and I've enjoyed my run thus far,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, keep on doing what I do? Why not?
Speaker 4: Why not?
Speaker 2: I was just gonna try and be a little If
Speaker 2: you watch the.
Speaker 3: Tape over and over and you say, could I be
Speaker 3: closer to a title or be a champion?
Speaker 2: Probably?
Speaker 3: Why not look at that, hear what you're saying, watch
Speaker 3: the tape and be like, here's how I can be
Speaker 3: a better fighter in the octagon versus just going out
Speaker 3: there and letting me, you know, all the adrenaline take over,
Speaker 3: letting yourself take over, uh, and trusting more of like
Speaker 3: the preparation that's going to go into the fight versus
Speaker 3: like allowing just this crazy ass iron mic step in
Speaker 3: there and.
Speaker 2: Let it all.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: It is.
Speaker 1: Like when you when you fight, there's a reason why
Speaker 1: you said it in your last fight, like you what
Speaker 1: everybody wants to see and it's it's amazing, But there.
Speaker 4: Has like yeah, why not be smart?
Speaker 2: Why not be smarter about it? Because I don't think
Speaker 2: it's as easy as a lot of people think it
Speaker 2: is as well I think, uh, I mean.
Speaker 3: I want to ask why you like you say yeah
Speaker 3: probably and throw out the anybody else thinking it versus
Speaker 3: you just sitting there and self scouting yourself why why
Speaker 3: not approach it in a way that would benefit you more,
Speaker 3: for like going for a title, being there with the
Speaker 3: gas tank just you know why.
Speaker 2: I think. I think in those moments and in those
Speaker 2: exchanges where we say, okay, well I hurt POORI in
Speaker 2: the first round, hurt Charles in the first round. Had
Speaker 2: I not been fighting that way, that explosive, that fast,
Speaker 2: that in your face, that foot on the gas pedal,
Speaker 2: those those opportunities would never have existed. And you're gonna
Speaker 2: see two guys. I'd be on my back foot more,
Speaker 2: which takes me more of a defensive stance instead of
Speaker 2: an offensive stance. And most of the time me being
Speaker 2: offensive has worked out more often than not. So it's uh,
Speaker 2: I mean you also have to you have to play
Speaker 2: to your strengths and your gifts as well. I think
Speaker 2: I'm I think I'm faster and stronger and more athletic
Speaker 2: and and have a lot of speed and just the
Speaker 2: tenacity to be able to in those moments one one
Speaker 2: guy starts to break and one guy starts to kind
Speaker 2: of conquer, if you will. And I have to be
Speaker 2: able to get to that that place with all the
Speaker 2: gifts that I have, you know, but I'm more I'm
Speaker 2: more saying taking a round off, like some guys, do
Speaker 2: you know I would rather? I guess not rather, but
Speaker 2: I just it's not in my nature because you're probably
Speaker 2: it's almos trying to think like I'm trying to think
Speaker 2: of your fight, like there's not a lot of things
Speaker 2: other than like when you're getting gased, your hands are down,
Speaker 2: and you're just thinking like you can tell, like you
Speaker 2: can tell the man's tired at the end of this
Speaker 2: first round, right and then in the second round, you're
Speaker 2: probably like, in your offensive nature, hey I got this
Speaker 2: much in the tank right now, I gotta take him
Speaker 2: down an awesome takedown.
Speaker 4: I guess I'm just trying to think, like, how.
Speaker 3: Do you do you look at it and you're like, okay,
Speaker 3: I need to if I'm run out of the gas
Speaker 3: in these moments, do I look at some of the
Speaker 3: training or some of the conditioning that's happening because I'm
Speaker 3: such an offensive, explosive type condition level fighter versus a
Speaker 3: more of a steadier pace start to fight. Do you
Speaker 3: look at how do I get a little bit more
Speaker 3: condition if I'm gonna be this way and play to
Speaker 3: my strengths, do you end up going back and kind
Speaker 3: of like, you know, maybe I need to change my
Speaker 3: training up a little.
Speaker 2: Bit, yo. And I think I have changed my training
Speaker 2: up a little bit, so regrettably. I think as a
Speaker 2: as a guy who as the actual fighter who is
Speaker 2: in there competing, I don't I wouldn't say that my
Speaker 2: my competition, my competition course of action is exactly like
Speaker 2: my training either. But it also I think mixed martial
Speaker 2: arts is different than a lot of sports too, where
Speaker 2: the competition is so much different than the training that
Speaker 2: it can't even be it can't even be portrayed to
Speaker 2: the aerademic. Yeah, it's it's almost impossible. It's impossible in
Speaker 2: any arena, let alone Madison Square Garden, you know. So
Speaker 2: that's that's the other aspect of it too. That's a
Speaker 2: little bit. I mean, it's even bewildering to me. I
Speaker 2: look at it and I'm like, yeah, I didn't exactly
Speaker 2: train like that. I'm not upset about it. I'm not
Speaker 2: regretted regretting anything. And it's almost just impossible to do it,
Speaker 2: you know. And I because I've actually my I've toned
Speaker 2: down my training a lot. If you guys saw the
Speaker 2: way that I trained compared to the way that I fight,
Speaker 2: It would it would blow your mind. I choose my
Speaker 2: three four training partners that I spar with. They're safe, guys,
Speaker 2: I'm not going crazy. I'm not in fighter flight mode.
Speaker 2: It's it's light, it's technical, I'm not taking damage. And
Speaker 2: then I go out in the fights and it's completely different.
Speaker 2: Straight fight or flight.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's really just or just.
Speaker 2: Going to the octagon.
Speaker 3: The gate closes, like, yeah, it's gotta be so hard
Speaker 3: to like, yeah.
Speaker 2: Imact the code on figuring out that those types of exactly.
Speaker 2: And maybe I'm a maybe I'm a pretty interesting science
Speaker 2: experiment that well we'll look at some day and people
Speaker 2: will break it down and say, you know, why does
Speaker 2: that happen? But also you only get which is crazy.
Speaker 2: You only get I think the fear of me under
Speaker 2: achieving because I look at I look at this last loss,
Speaker 2: I look at my previous losses wins. I don't think
Speaker 2: I've ever underachieved. I think I let it all out there,
Speaker 2: put it all out there. I fought well that I
Speaker 2: make some mistakes, of course we all do, and every
Speaker 2: every game, every fight, every ever thing. But I've never
Speaker 2: under I would never say I'm underachieved. I'm not. I'm
Speaker 2: not upset with my performance ever. So I think the
Speaker 2: fear of the fear of that guy who sits in
Speaker 2: the chair in the medical tent after a loss and say, man,
Speaker 2: I freaking I did not put it all out there tonight.
Speaker 2: I did not go for it. I did not I
Speaker 2: did not fight like uh, the guy who like fall
Speaker 2: into the ground and trying to do the little clips. Yeah,
Speaker 2: exactly like I would. I would, I would be, I
Speaker 2: would be I would be so embarrassed of that, I
Speaker 2: would be so let down of that, and I would
Speaker 2: be I would be so regret I would. I would
Speaker 2: regret that so much more than than the me who
Speaker 2: went out there and went out on my shield. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But you so you've talked about like the evolution of yourself.
Speaker 1: He dealt with a bunch of insecurities in the beginning
Speaker 1: of all this madness when I was starting the self doubt,
Speaker 1: the way you look at yourself in the mirror, and
Speaker 1: obviously that has evolved to become more and more and more.
Speaker 1: I think what Will is Will's trying to get at
Speaker 1: is those opportunities you had with charless and poorier, like
Speaker 1: you can still have those opportunities. But maybe in the
Speaker 1: second round, because gas things are all the same in
Speaker 1: the beginning, everyone's fulton. You come out the way you do. Listen,
Speaker 1: I'm a guy that knows nothing. I watch you. I've
Speaker 1: never wrestled in my life.
Speaker 2: I'm a fan.
Speaker 1: I like to sit and cheering the boy. So everything
Speaker 1: is great and salt with what I'm saying. But instead
Speaker 1: of you know, wearing him down, seeing where he's at,
Speaker 1: you can still be offensive and then maybe that second
Speaker 1: round you have that he doesn't have the same gas
Speaker 1: think he did in the first round, maybe you get
Speaker 1: that finish or is that like does that ever like
Speaker 1: come over your head? Is because I think what we're
Speaker 1: getting hung up on a little bit is taking a
Speaker 1: foot off the gas or like taking a round off.
Speaker 1: And I would never expect you to do that. I
Speaker 1: don't think you would ever make that compromise to yourself.
Speaker 1: My thought is like, why not just play some chess
Speaker 1: a little bit that first round you can still go
Speaker 1: hard and go hard on the paint, knowing, Okay, I'm
Speaker 1: gonna tie him down in this X, Y and Z,
Speaker 1: and then in the second round we finish business the
Speaker 1: way it needs to be finished.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think I'm saying yeah, okay, all right.
Speaker 3: Makes I'm personally like the when we talk about the
Speaker 3: science project. I feel like in fighting, it is hard
Speaker 3: to kind of put your finger on. But I feel
Speaker 3: like if I'm putting myself like if I were happening
Speaker 3: to be a fighter who's had your who's had your matches,
Speaker 3: I would just be frustrated on figuring out how can
Speaker 3: I put my finger on, how I can either finish
Speaker 3: these fights or not. Like I do get because you
Speaker 3: look at the last fight and it's hard to think,
Speaker 3: how would you do some different? You saw an opportunity
Speaker 3: to put him out, and you tried your fucking damn
Speaker 3: just to put him out. That he catches you, You're
Speaker 3: fucking You're tired, than the second round happens.
Speaker 2: It is what it is. So it's yeah, it's just
Speaker 2: I just I'm I.
Speaker 4: Just love being in your head. I want to ask
Speaker 4: as many questions as well.
Speaker 3: I think also obviously been on the pod a lot,
Speaker 3: We've talked about the wins, the losses and everything else.
Speaker 3: I want to know the self fucking Michael Chandler that's
Speaker 3: thinking about this thing and being like.
Speaker 2: Fuck, I do X, Y and Z. I'm just curious. Yeah, though, No,
Speaker 2: the hard the hard part about mixed martial arts too,
Speaker 2: or fighting just a fight in general, is it's like
Speaker 2: you can find yourself either one hundred percent offensive, but
Speaker 2: if you're not one hundred percent offensive, then you become
Speaker 2: one hundred percent defensive or somewhere in the middle. And
Speaker 2: it's hard for me. When I'm in the middle or
Speaker 2: I'm in the defensive posture, I start to overthink things
Speaker 2: as well. And I don't want to overthink things when
Speaker 2: I'm in there. I'd rather just get get in there,
Speaker 2: get in there and get into the get into the
Speaker 2: craziness of it, because I also know who I'm also fighting,
Speaker 2: another human being, who has a breaking point, who has
Speaker 2: self doubt, who has who has a who has the
Speaker 2: second guessing of themselves. Whenever they see me, they they
Speaker 2: feel my presence, they feel my pressure, they feel you know.
Speaker 2: So there's it's a it's the mind game, the physicality,
Speaker 2: the technique, the fear, the one punch ko the one punch,
Speaker 2: not the one punch kick, the one the one submission
Speaker 2: you can catch somebody in the wrestling and the dog fights.
Speaker 2: It's it's just it's a beautiful sport. But if I'm
Speaker 2: not one hundred percent offensive and one hundred percent putting
Speaker 2: foot on the gas, it's tough to Uh, you start
Speaker 2: to over think things. So I think maybe that's a
Speaker 2: crutch of mine, Maybe that's something I could have worked on.
Speaker 2: But I'm also a little bit too too far gone
Speaker 2: to think about that now.
Speaker 4: So yeah, again, I respect the shit out of it.
Speaker 2: I'm just too far gone. But we could all grow,
Speaker 2: we could all get better.
Speaker 3: But it's we're fucking curious how it all goes down,
Speaker 3: because even listening to you talk right there, it's just
Speaker 3: the methodology, like I'm not gonna allow myself to think
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get the fight started, like I'm gonna deal
Speaker 3: with all these things, I'm gonna get this thing going.
Speaker 2: I think you do a great job.
Speaker 3: Obviously, All everybody in your corner, we just sit there
Speaker 3: and everybody wants everybody wants you fucking win just like
Speaker 3: you do. And so when you sit and look at it, like, fuck,
Speaker 3: you got gas there, not because of a like a
Speaker 3: conditioning level, but because it's like it's hard as fuck
Speaker 3: to finish. If he didn't go down and you're having
Speaker 3: to wrestle him and he's kind of just stabilizing and
Speaker 3: trying to catch his own breath, and you're just trying
Speaker 3: to wrestle him to the ground, be offensive and it
Speaker 3: just doesn't happen.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, it's it's hard.
Speaker 3: It's hard to be like, how do you even fucking
Speaker 3: get to a level of training to get there because
Speaker 3: you kind of can't because you're in such a fight
Speaker 3: or flight survive.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to end him.
Speaker 3: I'm trying to do whatever possible, and how can you
Speaker 3: actually mimic that without just being like fuck, you just
Speaker 3: need one of those shots to land and he just
Speaker 3: goes down.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Well, yeah, that's the thing too. I mean, well,
Speaker 2: and that's where we talk about. Wait, I forget what
Speaker 2: you were saying earlier, but there's there's a little there's
Speaker 2: a piece of luck in there as well. I mean
Speaker 2: you there's a piece of luck and chance where I
Speaker 2: mean if one of those punches lands a little bit higher,
Speaker 2: a little bit lower, a little bit harder, a little
Speaker 2: bit different angle. I mean, I remember in the fight,
Speaker 2: I was like, I'm about to finish this dude landed
Speaker 2: four or five shots on him. He doesn't go down.
Speaker 2: I'm sure he thought the same thing about me. Four
Speaker 2: or five shots lands on me, nose is bleeding like crazy.
Speaker 2: You don't go down. There's been times where you hit
Speaker 2: a guy and he goes down and you're like, that
Speaker 2: was easy. I felt like I did't even hit him.
Speaker 2: And you feel like sometimes you're hitting them with a
Speaker 2: baseball bat and a two by four in there, it's
Speaker 2: a center block as hard as you can and they
Speaker 2: don't go down. So it's it's uh. And then all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, then you're left with, Okay, shoot, we
Speaker 2: got two more rounds left, We've got four more rounds left,
Speaker 2: we got whatever, and it's it's uh.
Speaker 3: The scary part for me, Yeah, personally, Yeah, getting tired.
Speaker 3: I'm just like, oh fuck, yeah, that's I mean, that's
Speaker 3: that's the scariest. I don't I don't remember being too
Speaker 3: too tired in this fight. I remember being very tired
Speaker 3: in a lot of fights. I don't remember being too
Speaker 3: tired in this fight. As far as actually mentally acknowledging it.
Speaker 3: I was just got up in the moment and enjoying
Speaker 3: it too, which is a little bit sick probably. But

Speaker 1: get back to your.
Speaker 2: I seeing the fight, by the way, and I don't
Speaker 2: really remember the fight.
Speaker 3: You were literally the best seat, so you were there. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's as crazy as I like believe you that. It's like,
Speaker 3: I'm sure it's hard to even remember all this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't remember. You don't really remember a thing.
Speaker 2: You don't really remember a thing.
Speaker 4: Because I'm sitting there, I'm like, I mean, both of
Speaker 4: you guys are very fucking tired.
Speaker 2: Of the friend. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I feel yeah, we're kind of sitting there like, buddy, there,
Speaker 3: the hands going, we're moving around, we're like grabbing each other.
Speaker 1: It was a bit of a deal.
Speaker 2: That's okay.
Speaker 1: So the first round, you finally get back to your coaches.
Speaker 1: You can't hear a thing in mass square garden.
Speaker 2: What are they telling you? I remember Henry saying, because
Speaker 2: because if I remember correctly, the end of the first
Speaker 2: round was not great.
Speaker 14: In my in my that's where he bounce back and yeah,
Speaker 14: maybe around it'd be around there, like maybe I don't
Speaker 14: know what, like the points said, like Mike was laying
Speaker 14: in massive blows, though I think you touched him more
Speaker 14: than he touched you, just the way that first round
Speaker 14: in and it's like, okay, thankfully.
Speaker 2: That round ended right, so not been enough.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I remember kind of like thank god that you
Speaker 1: remember looking at that clocks in five four, I'm I
Speaker 1: please God, just get to zero because there was you
Speaker 1: had him and then he taught something. So yes, absolutely,
Speaker 1: you get you get back to you get back to it.
Speaker 2: Henry. Is it? What's Henry talking about? Henry?
Speaker 8: Uh?
Speaker 2: Because I think the way that that first round ended,
Speaker 2: that's when he was like, okay, well, don't don't get
Speaker 2: into a brawl. In his mind, so he was saying,
Speaker 2: you know, go out there, get a takedown. Should have worked,
Speaker 2: should have worked the body more. The distance was going well.
Speaker 2: He threw a lot of straight left hands that weren't landing.
Speaker 2: I was getting out of the way to those I
Speaker 2: wanted to step off land a right hand. We worked
Speaker 2: a lot of that that didn't really happen too much.
Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna at one. But yeah, they were
Speaker 2: more just like, hey, let's let's try to secure this
Speaker 2: next round. Go out there, gonna take down. We got
Speaker 2: to take down second round. But what was that I
Speaker 2: staked down? I don't remember. I need to go back
Speaker 2: and watch it. We might try to do like a
Speaker 2: breakdown of the fight. Yeah, yeah, I mean why I
Speaker 2: lost on the scorecards, which the scorecards. Yeah, I lost
Speaker 2: the first round on the scorecards, which is which was
Speaker 2: good because that was one of my I did have
Speaker 2: a moment to regret there when I was like because
Speaker 2: because I think a couple of people said that I
Speaker 2: had won the first and second round. Because I won
Speaker 2: the second round, I thought, according to the scorecard too, yes,
Speaker 2: two of the judges, I think so in my mind,
Speaker 2: I'm like, shoot, if I was up too, oh, I
Speaker 2: should have been a little bit less gung ho in
Speaker 2: that third round and played it a little bit more safe.
Speaker 2: But to me, it was one one and I'm not
Speaker 2: going to leave it in the hands of judges. I
Speaker 2: needed to go out there and try to put it
Speaker 2: on them.
Speaker 3: And then there's absolutely no way hell unless you guys
Speaker 3: just no one gave out that fight was gonna go
Speaker 3: all three rounds. Yeah, I just I mean, you guys
Speaker 3: were you guys were just getting after it, getting after it,
Speaker 3: which always happens was your fights. Like You're one of
Speaker 3: the most electric fucking fighters out there. It's just like, God, damn,
Speaker 3: I here. You want them to you want the ball
Speaker 3: to bounce your way.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that'd be good. But also, dude, I I gont
Speaker 2: care last dude. Yeah, I'm thinking my own my record,
Speaker 2: think of my own.
Speaker 3: Selfishness of like we're fucking God, damn the boys. We
Speaker 3: were so hurry brother.
Speaker 1: Them all.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's the truth. It is the truth when
Speaker 2: you get to that point too, where you're just like dude,
Speaker 2: and even like just that, like f mall and even
Speaker 2: you where it's just like, dude, you're winning, like we're winning.
Speaker 2: As long as you're doing what you can with what
Speaker 2: you have, with your best foot forward constantly, you're winning
Speaker 2: and it's gonna it's gonna work out, you know, whether
Speaker 2: you win or lose, whether you you know, are successful
Speaker 2: or you're a failure whatever. Like I I'm not. I'm
Speaker 2: not at the point now where I'm even worried about it.
Speaker 2: I'm living a dream. This is this right here is
Speaker 2: the happiest I've ever been in victory or defeat, no
Speaker 2: matter what. Why Because I walked on. I left BELATORI
Speaker 2: left the relative relative security of being the face of
Speaker 2: a promotion, getting paid great, great money, coming over to
Speaker 2: the UFC, making so much more money for my family
Speaker 2: than I ever thought I would, so much more platforms,
Speaker 2: so much more everything, and it's it's just absolutely a
Speaker 2: dream that I'm living. So maybe that you know, the
Speaker 2: big time Michael Chandler supporters out there like god, dang do,
Speaker 2: but we just want you to win, dude. We I
Speaker 2: told all my boys you were gonna win. I told
Speaker 2: all my friends you were gonna win. You're gonna be champion,
Speaker 2: Like that's cool, but you know, we're fighting the and
Speaker 2: also we're fighting the best guys on the planet at
Speaker 2: my weight class, the best guys. So if I'm not that,
Speaker 2: I'm not that and I can sleep fine at night
Speaker 2: knowing that.
Speaker 1: And not that you empty the tank no matter what,
Speaker 1: Like there's a you can't have regrets if you put
Speaker 1: full effort out.
Speaker 2: If you have everything you have, there's no regrets. Yeah,
Speaker 2: And I think that's where I'm kind of trying to
Speaker 2: get at too, that I can't really put into perspective,
Speaker 2: and people are probably just like, dude, you sound like
Speaker 2: a loser right now. You're completely okay with losing, You're
Speaker 2: completely okay with falling short, and I and I I'm not,
Speaker 2: but I also am because I think there's I think
Speaker 2: there's so much freedom in that, and I think there's
Speaker 2: you can't you can't live in full freedom unless you're
Speaker 2: completely okay with losing as well, you know. And I
Speaker 2: don't want to. I don't want to. I don't want
Speaker 2: young kids to be like, oh, it's okay to lose,
Speaker 2: because I want you to. I want you to work
Speaker 2: extremely hard. I want you to be disciplined. I want
Speaker 2: you to try to become your best self. I want
Speaker 2: my sons to know that I it's okay to lose,
Speaker 2: but you deserve to win, you know. But I think
Speaker 2: in the deserving to win, you also have to when
Speaker 2: you're putting yourself out there and being the man in
Speaker 2: the arena and being the guy who who puts himself
Speaker 2: completely out there, you're gonna take losses. It's gonna happen.
Speaker 3: So yeah, and you said it too, like putting yourself
Speaker 3: out there, like to go that hard. You have to
Speaker 3: be willing to be able to look failure in the
Speaker 3: eye if you're going to exhaust yourself that much. Because
Speaker 3: you in my getting to watch you being your friend
Speaker 3: and everything else you do do that. So you're saying
Speaker 3: and like, yeah, people, the big Mike Chandler supporters like,
Speaker 3: if I'm sitting there fan of Mike Chandler, yeah, we
Speaker 3: want to go to the top. Why don't you want
Speaker 3: to talk about the goals of winning. But like, knowing you,
Speaker 3: I like you put everything into everything. So the fact
Speaker 3: that you come up short, it's like you can sleep
Speaker 3: well at night because you know I am doing fucking
Speaker 3: everything I absolutely can and I leave it all out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And it's just a but it's also just
Speaker 2: a metaphor for life. Man, this is what we this
Speaker 2: is what we do, and this this is life and
Speaker 2: every single endeavor that we choose to go down, every
Speaker 2: single road that we choose to go down, and mine
Speaker 2: is fighting in a cage and collecting scars and black
Speaker 2: eyes and broken noses, and you know, it's it's uh,
Speaker 2: it's my story and it's a beautiful thing and it's
Speaker 2: an awesome platform and I'm not upset about it. The
Speaker 2: sun rose this morning, two boys woke up this morning,
Speaker 2: my wife woke up this morning. Some coffee and life
Speaker 2: is good and I'm on the bus. The rest that's lit.
Speaker 3: Bisacia, I would always say, he like he would just
Speaker 3: you just see a random message.
Speaker 2: Fuck them all just dude, I love it back.
Speaker 4: Damn that sucks. You didn't get you didn't get the
Speaker 4: head coaching job. Who cares for them all?
Speaker 2: Yeah? And just keep it moving. Yeah, and that's yeah,
Speaker 2: that's the kind of freedom that you want to be
Speaker 2: able to live in. Yeah, I don't seem you see
Speaker 2: him calm. This is the columnst I have ever seen
Speaker 2: you like. It's from an energy standpoint for sure. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know what the future holds. You know,
Speaker 2: what do you think?
Speaker 3: It all?
Speaker 4: It was like, let's play, let's play sandbox.
Speaker 2: What do we I don't know. I know what the
Speaker 2: future holds for the next couple of months. Enjoy the
Speaker 2: enjoy the holidays, see see what shakes out. You know,
Speaker 2: the title is mean at this point, I'm not talking
Speaker 2: about the title, but the you know, the title fights
Speaker 2: happening in February. You know, Connor's coming back eventually. I'm
Speaker 2: on the short list for that fight, I'm sure, but
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Hey, that's the fight though, right, that is the fight.
Speaker 2: I mean, that's I think. I think, I think, I
Speaker 2: think at this point it's hard for me to vegas.
Speaker 2: I'm not a big self promoter, but like yeah. I mean,
Speaker 2: I'm I'm the we're here, Yeah, we're your boys, got
Speaker 2: promote forever. I'm the I'm the guy that that people
Speaker 2: want to watch for sure? What are you better or worse? Oh?
Speaker 2: Me and McGregor fight. International Fight Week of next year
Speaker 2: July International. Well, yeah, the UFC always does International Fight
Speaker 2: Week in July. That's when all the people from around
Speaker 2: the world come to Vegas watch the fight. I thought
Speaker 2: it's usually usually one of the biggest cards of the year.
Speaker 2: Usually they do one July and like November, like this
Speaker 2: Madison squarecard one was the biggest, the other big one
Speaker 2: that they do. And uh, that's what I think. Chandler
Speaker 2: versus McGregor July. I mean I have all the Yes.
Speaker 2: I lose this last fight, absolutely, but did my stock rise?
Speaker 2: I think so? Do people want to watch me fight? Absolutely?
Speaker 2: Will people ever not buy the pay per view? If
Speaker 2: I'm if I'm on it, I think there's a long shot.
Speaker 2: I think everybody wants to see me fight. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: sit back and wait and see how it all plays out,
Speaker 2: wait for the phone call. Because I think, without without
Speaker 2: sounding too narcissistic, I think I'm the guy that everyone
Speaker 2: wants to watch fight, and I'm not gonna do it
Speaker 2: unless it's something that excites me and something that I'm
Speaker 2: willing to leave my family for.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because people don't know, like it's not here just
Speaker 1: hanging out and be like, all right, I gotta fight
Speaker 1: in a week.
Speaker 2: I'll see you guys.
Speaker 1: But you have to literally go and leave your family, yeah,
Speaker 1: and basically just take over this different lights.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And it's a complete place mentally physically and spiritually.
Speaker 2: That that is that is absolutely draining too. I mean,
Speaker 2: just you know, I'm sitting here one hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: six pounds sitting on the bus right now. I'm I
Speaker 2: was just one fifty six what seventy two hours ago,
Speaker 2: you know, And and of course, yeah that is inflammation.
Speaker 2: And I you know, stuffed myself after the fight, you know,
Speaker 2: And and I did have pizza. Actually I am not
Speaker 2: a big carb guy, you know, but I had pizza.
Speaker 2: My boy Jimmy picked up some raised pizza and uh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: we went back to you know, I don't I don't
Speaker 2: even like it actually had too much cheese on it.
Speaker 2: I wish they we went light on the cheese. But yeah,
Speaker 2: we went back and we had some pizza and it
Speaker 2: was up till four in the morning cause I didn't
Speaker 2: get back to the hotel un till like two in
Speaker 2: the morning. Yeah, you know, it was just a late
Speaker 2: late night. So it's been my body's kind of out
Speaker 2: of out of whack, off kilter because I've been sleeping
Speaker 2: so perfectly, eating so light, eating so lean, and all
Speaker 2: of a sudden, my body's like, yo, bro, what are
Speaker 2: you doing right now? I'm fasting today until like another
Speaker 2: two hours, three hours just to like let my body.
Speaker 2: Took some smooth moved tea to clean it all out.
Speaker 2: So maybe I'm less than one eighty six now, but
Speaker 2: U and that piece happening right down swing Yeah, but anyways, no,
Speaker 2: back to that. I mean, it's inflammation.
Speaker 3: It's this a brother thirty pounds being extrictly to the
Speaker 3: rest and to the fight culture of like, yeah, maybe
Speaker 3: I did X, Y and Z, but everybody else like
Speaker 3: yal thirty fucking pounds.
Speaker 1: So people pause that and call somebody, hey, did you
Speaker 1: hear he lost thirty pounds?
Speaker 2: He did it?
Speaker 3: Text from one of his five buddies, like, hey, come on,
Speaker 3: why are you lying? Like you know, some of that's inflammation,
Speaker 3: someone I said, it was like the ninety nine point
Speaker 3: nine percent of everybody out there's like, yo, thirty pounds,
Speaker 3: oh insane.
Speaker 2: Well, it's a lot of it. A lot of it
Speaker 2: was the you know, the dehydration and the rehydration. I
Speaker 2: mean I was one seventy five within twelve hours, you know,
Speaker 2: drink two gallons of water and I'm almost one seventy five.
Speaker 2: But but yeah, going back to the preparation and what
Speaker 2: what gets me off of what what gets me out
Speaker 2: of the house, what gets me out of you know,
Speaker 2: working on the other businesses that I'm doing, and the
Speaker 2: investments and and just the family and friends and beautiful
Speaker 2: life that I get to live. What's going to pull
Speaker 2: me away from that is something that excites me, that
Speaker 2: that I have to go be away from the family
Speaker 2: for that is gonna you know, take care of me
Speaker 2: and my family, going to continue to increase the platform.
Speaker 2: That's where I'm at at this point. And I love
Speaker 2: fighting for the UFC. I just talked to Hunter Campbell yesterday,
Speaker 2: who's the number two in charge of the UFC, basically,
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, I love them. I love the
Speaker 2: opportunity they have given me. They love me. Danny called
Speaker 2: me the arturro Gotti of the UFC, you know, which
Speaker 2: is which is too true? Inside of the cage, I
Speaker 2: think for about as accurate of the depiction as you
Speaker 2: could have. But it's got to be something that really
Speaker 2: excites me because I you know, I'm not going to
Speaker 2: do it for just anything, any fight and it's just
Speaker 2: another fight, you know. Yeah, that makes sense. Got to
Speaker 2: be McGregor. McGregor makes a lot of sense. We'll see
Speaker 2: what he says it does. It does make sense. I
Speaker 2: heard it here first on the bus JP.
Speaker 3: You got anything with the fighting stuff our core, our
Speaker 3: UFC correspondent, it'd be heavy.
Speaker 5: More just a question if you if you'd want to
Speaker 5: rank your opponents that you've had in the UFC toughest
Speaker 5: to I don't want to say least toughest, but.
Speaker 2: Yeah, tough to the opposite of that man, I would uh,
Speaker 2: I would go uh gaitschee TOUGHESTI a second, only because
Speaker 2: only because of the way that the fight went, because
Speaker 2: was poor was very uh very light on the ground.
Speaker 2: I think he was actually he was resting a little
Speaker 2: bit under there. I don't know if he was really
Speaker 2: trying to get away a lot, which is actually probably
Speaker 2: really smart, because I think he was. He was he
Speaker 2: was conserving gas. There's no there's me while I was trying,
Speaker 2: while I was just trying to hammer away, which is
Speaker 2: very smart. Shows his veteran mentality. Then it would go
Speaker 2: uh Ali Vera after that, then Ferguson, then Hooker. But
Speaker 2: the Hooker fight didn't really count because it was it
Speaker 2: was so quick. It wasn't even really that much. He
Speaker 2: didn't really get to show his toughness. Dan Hooker great
Speaker 2: this last fight, so he needed that win. Yeah, Dak
Speaker 2: Prescott's teeth tweeting me, that's crazy. That's the Revenge's.
Speaker 1: Prescott.
Speaker 2: Josh Keller. Uh but uh, Dak Prescott revenge to her? Yeah,
Speaker 2: walking into crazy lest Well, yeah, I mean and yeah,
Speaker 2: I mean, hey, if I had, if I had to
Speaker 2: walk away right now and be like first five fights
Speaker 2: in the u f C, only five fights in the UFC,
Speaker 2: We did our work piece. I'm out Barry Sanders. So y'all,
Speaker 2: would you, uh who you want to fight next with?
Speaker 2: Not Connor? I don't know. It's got Like I said,
Speaker 2: it's gotta be a big fight. Nate Diaz just left,
Speaker 2: but he could come back. Whenever I would fight Nate Diaz.
Speaker 2: I would fight George moles Vital. I mean to fight.
Speaker 2: I want to fight these guys at one seventy two.
Speaker 2: Probably healthier for you, healthier dude. And and these guys
Speaker 2: aren't that big career cut. Literally, I don't can't. I'm
Speaker 2: not getting get older, Like it's not like you're some young,
Speaker 2: some young cat going to these tournaments. Well that's the thing.
Speaker 2: I'm older. But I've also proven that I'm that. I
Speaker 2: I mean, I've been It's kind of like I've been there,
Speaker 2: done that, got the T shirt. Man, Like, Yeah, I've
Speaker 2: never missed weight my entire life. I've never pulled out
Speaker 2: of a fight. That's something I wear as a badge
Speaker 2: of honor. So fight these guys at one seventy, these
Speaker 2: guys who are won fifty five ors at one seventy.
Speaker 2: I would. It would be naive and somewhat delusion oldest
Speaker 2: for me to sit here and talk about the title.
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not nowhere close to fighting for the
Speaker 2: title now, So I'm not going to, you know, fight
Speaker 2: five fights in the top five again to try to
Speaker 2: get back to the title at one fifty five and
Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. Do I think it's still
Speaker 2: a possibility in the cards for me. With another big win,
Speaker 2: I could fight Geechee again. I could fight who else
Speaker 2: is in the top five, Olivera, you know, I mean
Speaker 2: there's the Olivevera fight. I like the Olive Ara fight.
Speaker 2: I would love that rematch. I would love the Gaigy rematch.
Speaker 2: But then you got these young hungry guys too that
Speaker 2: are coming in. Hafelfasive, who's actually a training partner of mine.
Speaker 2: I think he trained with us for a while and
Speaker 2: went back to Russia or Highland or whatever.
Speaker 7: Somewhere.
Speaker 2: We'll see. I have no idea. Boys, where would you
Speaker 2: want to fight Conrad? We'll wait on seventy for sure,
Speaker 2: at his biggest, at his baggest, and it's most dangerous.
Speaker 2: He did put out a little picture the other.
Speaker 1: Day to sixty five in the bank. He is, yeah,
Speaker 1: he is looking rocked up.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I uh, you'd be.
Speaker 3: Faster in a fight. This is from Zach Deaton. Could
Speaker 3: you beat faster in a fight out of me and Taylor?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I don't know, dude, It'd probably be me.
Speaker 2: It'd be harder. Answer, it'd be hard. It'd be hard.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I'm almost six weeks postop ACL surgery.
Speaker 2: How are you doing? Let's talk about you doing fantastic.
Speaker 1: You don't need to worry about me and Boss.
Speaker 2: We're living.
Speaker 1: I literally walked a drunken marathon this past weekend and
Speaker 1: I have hardly any swelling in my knee. That a
Speaker 1: life literally could not be better right now, let's go. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's been amazing. But uh, who do you think he
Speaker 1: would beat in a fight? Me or Will?
Speaker 2: Who do you beat faster? Will? Only because I'm looking
Speaker 2: at you right now, I would definitely beat Taylor, Dude.
Speaker 2: I would crush Taylor, so.
Speaker 1: Probably, dude, Ei, there is film of me getting knocked out, so.
Speaker 2: Oh oh yeah, I know exactly. There's a film with
Speaker 2: me getting knocked out in a fight. So you been
Speaker 2: in a fight before? Will? Not really Yang, dude.
Speaker 1: No, but you got ground game? Oh I Will has
Speaker 1: tossed my ass around in wrestling?
Speaker 2: How many times at this point? Great wrestling? Yeah, do
Speaker 2: you think you beat Do you think you could hang
Speaker 2: with him in wrestling?
Speaker 4: Hang with Chandler and wrestling.
Speaker 2: Bring the eagle out? Crazy part of me says, maybe
Speaker 2: I love that? Not at not when I'm one ninety
Speaker 2: dye one day.

Speaker 3: I think it, Uh, it depends how much wrestling you

Speaker 3: of just wrestling.
Speaker 2: I probably do more wrestling him. You think so, probably
Speaker 2: then you probably would wrestle. Does he wrestle with the guys? Yeah,
Speaker 2: he wrestles live with the guys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Cody's thought about he Cody's like wanted to like
Speaker 3: do the fucking little vet tournaments that because he rocks
Speaker 3: with the parlor.
Speaker 4: Circuit all year round.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I'm still out of my league right now.
Speaker 3: So all those five seven day intensive camps and stuff
Speaker 3: like that, Like he still brags about it. He's still
Speaker 3: like you see the competitiveness in him about it. It'd
Speaker 3: be funny you you, I mean you were a stud

Speaker 3: still fighting. You still wrestle all the time.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean.

Speaker 2: but just it's based on just no carbs. No carbs
Speaker 2: are the enemy. Carbs are the Carbs are the enemy.
Speaker 2: If anybody wants to lose weight, go go a month
Speaker 2: without eating starchy carbs, bread, pasta, even potatoes and that
Speaker 2: kind of stuff. Just go off of it and see
Speaker 2: what happens.
Speaker 7: Off it.
Speaker 2: You don't, we don't need it. The food pyramid which
Speaker 2: said what ten eleven servings of carbohydrates.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was the that was the base of the pyramids.
Speaker 1: It was created. You follow that thing to an elementary school,
Speaker 1: You're like, this is It.
Speaker 2: Was created as a marketing tool for the agricultural industry,
Speaker 2: saying we need we need this much wheat. It was
Speaker 2: made by a guy out of Minnesota who had ties
Speaker 2: to the to the wheat industry. So it was just
Speaker 2: we were sold a huge lie that protein way up
Speaker 2: at the top, to whatever up the top two. Second
Speaker 2: tier should be at the very bottom, mainly protein, mainly protein,
Speaker 2: vegetables and fruits. And then you know, if you're gonna
Speaker 2: do dairy and stuff, which I don't do dairy, you say,
Speaker 2: grass fed butter.
Speaker 1: I try to stay away from dairy just because I'm
Speaker 1: I will just follow whoever. Yeah, you know, if you're like, hey,
Speaker 1: this is the best route to go, I'm like done.
Speaker 1: I'm not touching dairy ever.
Speaker 2: Again.
Speaker 1: I pretty much just stay away from gluten and dairy.
Speaker 2: But I mean, your boy, yeah, but you're you're a
Speaker 2: big guy who always trying to keep weight on as
Speaker 2: well too.
Speaker 1: Now right now, not right now, I'm at like to
Speaker 1: eighty six, so I think I'm gonna bump it back down,
Speaker 1: probably try to get in the seventies.
Speaker 2: There you go sixties, maybe nimble that's the fifth nimble,
Speaker 2: that's the fifties, that just dabble in the fifties.
Speaker 1: So you think you think the carnivoard is like the
Speaker 1: move for all that, but just staying lean, I like,
Speaker 1: I mean.
Speaker 2: I've I've liked it, I've enjoyed it, Yes, staying lean
Speaker 2: for sure. And then and then if you follow, like
Speaker 2: you know, the two people really to follow, like liver
Speaker 2: king carnivore MD.
Speaker 1: So you you are a supporter of liver k liver king,
Speaker 1: Uh is a strong word, but.
Speaker 2: He's not exactly You're a supporter kind of a you know,
Speaker 2: he's turned himself heast turned himself into he's turned himself
Speaker 2: into a straight up you know meme guy where he's
Speaker 2: just doing crazy stuff. But yeah, do I think that, uh,
Speaker 2: generations before us ate a lot more organs than we do.
Speaker 2: Absolutely do. I think organs have been demonized and carbohydrates
Speaker 2: have been praised, you know, absolutely, And I think it's backwards.
Speaker 2: You know, eating nose to tail is is UH is
Speaker 2: something that should be looked at because that's you know,
Speaker 2: generations before us eat that way, you know, not being
Speaker 2: afraid of liver heart and testines, kidneys. I haven't eat testicle.
Speaker 2: Yeah they had to, but who knows if they wanted to,
Speaker 2: you know what. Well, but also but a little bit
Speaker 2: of brand, it'll change your life, yeah, in a bad way. Spots.
Speaker 2: Over the weekend, we had.
Speaker 1: Three meals the whole weekend, two of them at Mister Spots,
Speaker 1: which is like Billy cheese, steak wings, chili cheese, fries, milkshakes,
Speaker 1: and then we went to like a nice little steakhouse
Speaker 1: which is service, by the way, awful, awful service, but
Speaker 1: the food's pretty good.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you're talking to a guy. I just had
Speaker 2: pizza the other night. So I still pizza one night
Speaker 2: and was guilty about that, right, you know, last time
Speaker 2: I had pizza was that at our at our Memorial
Speaker 2: Day party or whatever party that was. That was the
Speaker 2: last time I had pizza. Pizza last night, and then yeah,
Speaker 2: and then just tonight, and then are whatever three nights ago,
Speaker 2: whatever night it was, And uh, I'm not going back.
Speaker 2: It's not going back. Steaks carbs is zero carbs. Well,
Speaker 2: I mean I get car car you get carbs from vegetables.
Speaker 2: I really enjoyed eating a lot of dates this training camp, actually,
Speaker 2: which obviously is sugars, which is carbs. But it also
Speaker 2: helped me stay regular. But when I say carbs, I
Speaker 2: mean when what When you think of carbs, you think
Speaker 2: of grains, pastas, reds, potatoes, those those things. Sweet potato
Speaker 2: used sparingly a little bit. If you're training hard. The
Speaker 2: problem is everybody listening to this, chances are they don't
Speaker 2: train hard enough to actually need that mint that much carbs.
Speaker 2: So how do you keep your energy while you're working out? Bats?
Speaker 2: Rotein and mental and physical intestinal fortitude of a Missouri
Speaker 2: boy lock in Missouri guys, dude show. But I mean
Speaker 2: the UFC makes all of our meals throughout fight week
Speaker 2: and stuff. So after after my after my weigh ins
Speaker 2: and stuff, I was eating a decent amount of carbs.
Speaker 2: I was eating a lot of sweet potato and stuff.
Speaker 2: And I even questioned it. I was like, hey, I
Speaker 2: haven't been doing a lot of carbs, and he's like,
Speaker 2: it's okay, throw some carbs in there. So energy level
