00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 2: This right here is Morning Combat, the best damn combat

7
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 2: sports show they ever put together, with two washed individuals.

8
00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:52,160
Speaker 1: Two pathetic pieces of shit IMBC.

9
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:56,200

10
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 2: Luke Thomas. And today, Luke, we got a weird rundown

11
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 2: of things to talk.

12
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,440
Speaker 1: Might be the weirdest one we've ever done.

13
00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, we're going to get to the bottom of

14
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 2: whether the government was telling the truth about the Epstein list,

15
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,479
Speaker 2: and then I have some thoughts on Building seven we'll

16
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 2: get into as well. Luke, fourth of July is behind us.

17
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 2: Did you celebrate America?

18
00:01:16,480 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: We I took the tukes star. I mean, I figure

19
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: every kid has to go at least once. If you

20
00:01:20,640 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: live in the city. You got to go see the

21
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: federal fireworks. Yes, they were fine for four minutes. They

22
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,440
Speaker 1: weren't much longer than that. I remember being longer as

23
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: a kid. But whatever on a bus, I know they

24
00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: don't start till like nine pm, So you have to

25
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 1: figure out like what you're going to do all day,

26
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: and part of that you have to wait, you know,

27
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: in these areas. So but we did it. I decided

28
00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: to do it, and she liked it. But then you know,

29
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: it ended and we were like, all right, well that's that.

30
00:01:48,240 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 1: But yeah, other than that, we had a good time. Oh,

31
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: I will say this, We'll say this.

32
00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 2: Wh't you say it?

33
00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 1: Tuki lifted weights with me in her own way, like

34
00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,400
Speaker 1: the front yard, and a very kid likely I have

35
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: her like a one pound kettlebell lifted weights with me

36
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,520
Speaker 1: in the front yard yesterday.

37
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,440
Speaker 2: Okay, Wow. All we need is to get her on

38
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:10,560
Speaker 2: some metal music and maybe tried and maybe the worst

39
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 2: energy drinks that will kill you. Speaking of which, yes,

40
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,480

Speaker 1: what does freedom taste like? Ice? Attention? I don't know

48
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,160

Speaker 2: Form energy brought to you.

50
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,400

Speaker 1: they definitely wanted us at their house. Yeah.

134
00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,640
Speaker 2: Now, is this to potentially harvest our organs and or

135
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:20,240

136
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:20,760
Speaker 2: live pocket.

137
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,640

138
00:06:23,720 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: important to you, thec's like and the fine print it

139
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:31,080

00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,680
Speaker 2: details would be released in due time. But this is

160
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,920
Speaker 2: very serious and very real, according to a report from

161
00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:46,480
Speaker 2: NBC News, here, I want to place first the video

162
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 2: of Trump speaking this into existence, and then we'll get

163
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 2: LT's live reaction.

164
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 4: So every one of our National park, battlefields and historic

165
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 4: sites are going to have special events of America two

166
00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 4: fifty And I even think we're gonna have a UFC fight.

167
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 4: We're gonna have Does anybody watch UFC.

168
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:06,680
Speaker 1: The Great Dana World.

169
00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 2: We're gonna have a UFC fight. We're gonna have a

170
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: UFC fight.

171
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 4: Think of this on the grounds of the White House.

172
00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:16,960
Speaker 3: We have a lot of land there.

173
00:08:16,960 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: We're gonna build a little We're not Dani's gonna do it.

174
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 4: Daniel's great, one of a kind. We're gonna have a

175
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 4: UFC fight championship fight, full fight, like twenty twenty five

176
00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,760
Speaker 4: thousand people, and we're gonna do that as part of

177
00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 4: two fifty. Also, we're gonna have some incredible events, some

178
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 4: professional events, some amateur events, but the UFC fight's gonna

179
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:36,880
Speaker 4: be a big deal too.

180
00:08:36,880 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 2: And to Luke, like, what what world are we living?

181
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,840
Speaker 2: And this is bizarre?

182
00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not sure what to say about this, to

183
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: be perfectly honest. I mean, there's like a million things

184
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:50,840
Speaker 1: to say.

185
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:53,320
Speaker 2: In one thing. It's the sport that we cover for

186
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 2: a living that day is our our family to eat

187
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 2: is going extreme mainstream, But.

188
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:03,439
Speaker 1: It's a yeah, you know what, I would actually before

189
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 1: I even say anything, I would actually much rather hear

190
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,199
Speaker 1: from Long Island Luke on this one, because well, here's

191
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: here's here's what I basically get from this. I don't

192
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: know his political affiliation, which is I think actually tells

193
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,079
Speaker 1: you a lot like it. I don't think it's a

194
00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:19,319
Speaker 1: four part of his identity. I think his sensibility is

195
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,680
Speaker 1: much more in tune with like the common UFC fan,

196
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 1: So Long Island Luke hearing this here in the president

197
00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 1: say that and then getting this news. What is your

198
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:28,679
Speaker 1: reaction to this?

199
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,440
Speaker 3: This does nothing for me? I like, I don't know.

200
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 3: It's kind of like when Turkey was like we're putting

201
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,760
Speaker 3: on a boxing event in Times Square, Like okay, cool,

202
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 3: that's it'll be nice scenery, but like you care about

203
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,600
Speaker 3: the fights, right, But yeah, what is that? That does

204
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 3: nothing for me? Yeah? Yeah, I'm not that big into

205
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 3: politics in general. So I feel like I'm really here.

206
00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: I feel like it really depends on who you ask,

207
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:53,480
Speaker 1: to be perfectly honest with you, If you ask MMA fans,

208
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: I think I don't know if the majority of them,

209
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 1: but many of them would probably say, hey, that's pretty cool, right.

210
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 1: I mean, that's certainly a different scenery.

211
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 2: I mean it's not every day our country turns two

212
00:10:02,280 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 2: hundred fifty years old, Like this is a kind of

213
00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,560
Speaker 2: a major milestone moment. Sure, we're bringing that in with

214
00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:09,079
Speaker 2: the damn octagon. Yeah.

215
00:10:09,080 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 1: I mean, well, there's there's one question, which is what

216
00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 1: on earth does the UFC have to do with freedom?

217
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: July fourth. It doesn't quite line up in that particular.

218
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:20,959
Speaker 2: Way, but lines up in that can right, screaming.

219
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:25,640
Speaker 1: Freedom, that's what it is. So that being not a

220
00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: thing that we're focusing on. I think MMA fans would

221
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: probably say, and again I cannot speak for them, but

222
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:31,679
Speaker 1: I'm just trying.

223
00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:32,360
Speaker 2: To read the tea leaves.

224
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: They would say that it's certainly a cool backdrop. It's

225
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: certainly a question or a marker of to the point

226
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: you raise mainstream visibility. But I would actually argue that's

227
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 1: not quite right. The UFC didn't get to the White

228
00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: House lawns such that it actually happens. And by the way,

229
00:10:48,760 --> 00:10:54,280
Speaker 1: the UFC and the Trump administration both had said that

230
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 1: the plans are serious, but it does.

231
00:10:57,960 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 2: They did put a little wiggle.

232
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 1: Room in there that it may not happen or you know,

233
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,040
Speaker 1: you know, detail subject.

234
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 2: To change, or we'll see.

235
00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:07,559
Speaker 1: So they're going to give themselves a little bit of

236
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 1: out if they actually have to move it, Because I

237
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:10,959
Speaker 1: do want to talk about the logistics of it.

238
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,400
Speaker 2: You can't put twenty five thousand people inside the fences, right,

239
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 2: that's you could about that, you could. So I've I've

240
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 2: recently been to the White House for the first time

241
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,440
Speaker 2: two years ago on family vacation. And when you come

242
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 2: from the side of the Washington Monument and walk that

243
00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 2: way so that the south lawn, you're south lawn, there's

244
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,880
Speaker 2: that extra wide open field. Was that the Ellipses, so let's.

245
00:11:29,720 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: Called the Ellipse, yes, Ellipse excuse that's on the other

246
00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 1: side of East Street facing Constitution.

247
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 2: Possibly put up some fences in so I looked this up.

248
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: I actually looked this up. I actually looked it up

249
00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: last night. Has there ever been a sporting event that

250
00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:44,600
Speaker 1: was basically controlled by the White House that took place

251
00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 1: either on the south lawn or the ill side.

252
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 2: Of like a makeshift special Olympics like baseball game.

253
00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean President Clinton put a quarter mile track.

254
00:11:53,040 --> 00:11:55,920
Speaker 1: Obama had a basketball court put in there. You know,

255
00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:01,599
Speaker 1: Clinton had like a blowjob like but you know that

256
00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:04,320
Speaker 1: aside like just indulging a president. And Nixon had obviously

257
00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,440
Speaker 1: a bowling alley installed in the in the White House

258
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 1: but outside of that, in the nineteenth century, the Washington

259
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 1: Senators actually played some games on the ellipse. It actually

260
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: was a real It actually was a real thing. But

261
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: in terms of the South Lawn, it's like you can

262
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: if you live in the area. They the the White House,

263
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: no matter who the administration is, they'll put up every

264
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: year for Easter Egg for Easter Egg count. Little kids

265
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 1: can sign up and then they do a lottery and

266
00:12:26,080 --> 00:12:26,520
Speaker 1: then you can go.

267
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:27,319
Speaker 2: They do that.

268
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,200
Speaker 1: Obama had like a twenty sixteen almost like a south

269
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 1: By Southwest thing. There had two thousand people on there.

270
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: It's an eighteen acre property. You couldn't put it on

271
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:37,319
Speaker 1: the Lafayette Square side. You have to put it on

272
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:38,200
Speaker 1: the South Lawn side.

273
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 2: You could do it.

274
00:12:40,080 --> 00:12:41,640
Speaker 1: But this is one of the other questions I would have,

275
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:47,080
Speaker 1: which is that is a logistical nightmare because you are

276
00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:51,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to close off key portions of downtown,

277
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 1: which you can do. But this right, is it the

278
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: US government or I mean it's Turkey. I had several

279
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,320
Speaker 1: friends lose their jobs in DOGE cuts, and I'm expected

280
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 1: to believe this is an effective use of taxpayer dollars.

281
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:05,240
Speaker 1: That doesn't It doesn't make a lot of sense to

282
00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:06,480
Speaker 1: me if I'm just being honest.

283
00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,839
Speaker 2: With you, But would we need Turkey to come in

284
00:13:07,960 --> 00:13:09,400
Speaker 2: and like, who's.

285
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 1: If there's a benefactor, that's a little bit different.

286
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 2: We're ill fitted for the Oval office Elon Muskay and

287
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 2: Kennemine or Turkey.

288
00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,719
Speaker 1: Turkey knows a little bit more about the fight game.

289
00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: I guess I would just say this. I think MMA

290
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: fans are going to be real jazzed to have this

291
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 1: kind of a placement in this celebration, to be on

292
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: the White House, to have it in a front and center.

293
00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:33,800
Speaker 1: But the point I want to raise previously, which is

294
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 1: the one it's like, oh, it's like fully mainstream, yes,

295
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:41,199
Speaker 1: sort of sort of, but not really. The UFC didn't

296
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: get to this place by staying with their big tent approach.

297
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,160
Speaker 1: For most of my life, they had a big tent approach.

298
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:54,400
Speaker 1: It didn't matter tall, short, white, black, rich, poor, southern, northern, western,

299
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: and Eastern, it didn't.

300
00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 2: Matter who you are.

301
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,679
Speaker 1: There was the argument was there was a space for

302
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:01,839
Speaker 1: you inside MMA. That is not the That is not

303
00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: the claim that they make now. The claim that they

304
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 1: make now is this is I mean, they don't say

305
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:09,480
Speaker 1: this explicitly but they have alienated We've talked about this

306
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: a million times, a portion of their fan base by

307
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:16,080
Speaker 1: going all in on one side decidedly. That's how they

308
00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: got here. And I just think the other thing I

309
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: would ask folks to consider is, listen, I don't really

310
00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,520
Speaker 1: know what's going to happen between now and next July,

311
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 1: whether this will happen. It might just be no big deal.

312
00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 1: It might be a huge deal. Again, I think for

313
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 1: MMA fans, they're just focused on what kind of card

314
00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:29,480
Speaker 1: are we going to get?

315
00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 2: Right?

316
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 1: And then that's and then that looks kind of cool.

317
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:34,240
Speaker 1: And I understand that. I'm just gonna say it again, dude,

318
00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: the UFC going all in on political polarization and the

319
00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,440
Speaker 1: way that they are, I don't know what the law

320
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: and I'm saying this genuinely, I do not know what

321
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,880
Speaker 1: the long term risks are. Makes me a little nervous

322
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 1: for the long term viability of the sport. It does

323
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 1: makes me a little nervous that they would go we're

324
00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: we're going to go small tent and then hardcore focus

325
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:57,280
Speaker 1: on that, don't I don't know what that does.

326
00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,040
Speaker 2: I mean, it's like, I love MMA, but do I

327
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,480
Speaker 2: want in octagon? On the White House grounds on the

328
00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,360
Speaker 2: country's two hundred and fiftieth birthday. And that's independent.

329
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,200
Speaker 1: You know, the fighters are gonna win and then go

330
00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:07,840
Speaker 1: absolutely fulate Trump.

331
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 2: But that's it.

332
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 3: I was gonna say it.

333
00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 2: For me, it's independent of who's in office. To me,

334
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 2: it's like it's so it's like everybody's kickback is, oh,

335
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 2: if you say anything negative about Trump being cage sided

336
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:18,760
Speaker 2: and being worshiped that you have ce events, then it

337
00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 2: means you automatically love the other side. I don't want

338
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:22,840
Speaker 2: Biden there, I don't want Obama there. I don't want

339
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 2: any of those guys there. It's one thing to be

340
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 2: in attendance and wave and the camera goes on you,

341
00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,080
Speaker 2: just like when a president's throwing out the first pitch

342
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 2: from the front row of the you don't see them

343
00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:30,960
Speaker 2: of a crowd, and then you don't see him again.

344
00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,640
Speaker 2: I wonder would this have the same like, is this

345
00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:40,160
Speaker 2: is the reaction to this rooted specifically in how people

346
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:43,080
Speaker 2: react to that side of the political line, or would

347
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:45,120
Speaker 2: the reaction be the same if it was Joe Biden.

348
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 1: So I actually I didn't have a whole lot of

349
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: a reaction. My friends who live in DC all texted me.

350
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:50,880
Speaker 1: They're like, you're going to go to this and I'm like,

351
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:53,760
Speaker 1: I would be deny credentials on two levels trying to

352
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: get into this one. But but I actually read around

353
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 1: the internet just to see what people said, and of

354
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 1: course three actions fall on partisan lines too, right, So

355
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,760
Speaker 1: the right wing is pretty happy about it. The left

356
00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: wing considers this quite tacky. In the end, the thing

357
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,800
Speaker 1: that I would just ask folks all tacky a shit

358
00:16:10,880 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 1: to be fair, it's a little monster trucky.

359
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little monster trucky, That's what I'm saying. It's

360
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:17,640
Speaker 2: like what does that say about America? You know?

361
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 1: But in the end, in the end, I think the

362
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 1: thing I would ask folks to consider is beyond some

363
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:27,600
Speaker 1: of the things we've already mentioned, is just that what again,

364
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask, what on earth does this have to

365
00:16:29,200 --> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: do with Fourth of July? And like, when we're celebrating this,

366
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:34,840
Speaker 1: are we actually celebrating the independence of the British or

367
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,240
Speaker 1: is this a way for a guy who's got I'm

368
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,560
Speaker 1: sorry to bring this up and we can move on

369
00:16:39,640 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: from it. But the guy who's got authoritarian tendencies to

370
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,560
Speaker 1: have praise lavished on him on his literal fucking lawn

371
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: by a company that has no problem doing business with

372
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,720
Speaker 1: authoritarian regimes. Like it just feels to me like actually

373
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: pretty much a continuation of that on down the line.

374
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,960
Speaker 1: You know, I don't know, I don't know. So in

375
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,560
Speaker 1: the end, my view is whenever you fall politically will

376
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: absolutely color how this looks. The last thing I'll say

377
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:10,200
Speaker 1: is like, when this kind of got announced, the least

378
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,679
Speaker 1: law abiding UFC fighters that we have, we're all like.

379
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 2: Me first, let me be the first. So the one

380
00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,840
Speaker 2: me first that got everybody fired up as they should

381
00:17:20,760 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 2: was recently retired former two division champion and greatest of

382
00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:27,879
Speaker 2: all time John Jones, who uh pulled out of the

383
00:17:27,920 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 2: possibility of a multi year build toward a Tom Aspital

384
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:34,919
Speaker 2: heavyweight title unification fight to then do this on Twitter,

385
00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:38,320
Speaker 2: which obviously felt like he was sticking a finger in

386
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 2: the soar of all MMA fans. Not only is the

387
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:44,119
Speaker 2: I like this to in response to an AI image

388
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,439
Speaker 2: of John on the top of a cage wearing Apollo

389
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,680
Speaker 2: creed trunks celebrating a victory over Tom Aspinal, maybe as

390
00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:54,119
Speaker 2: a recreation of the Revolutionary War in some ways, you

391
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,800
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, And then he put out that

392
00:17:56,960 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 2: he's re entered the UFC testing pool with his quote

393
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:06,040
Speaker 2: of figured we'd keep everyone's options opened end quote. If

394
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 2: you're Dana White after what he just pulled, although for

395
00:18:08,760 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 2: the record, Data did not dunk on him after he

396
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 2: pulled this shit, right, Dana was sort of like.

397
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 1: I thought, he took it well.

398
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:16,320
Speaker 2: He took it pretty well. He moved on if they

399
00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:19,520
Speaker 2: allowed John Jones back into the octom am I being

400
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,719
Speaker 2: a John Jones hater or what I am? I am

401
00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,760
Speaker 2: I accurate in saying it's absolute bullshit for him to

402
00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:28,720
Speaker 2: give up the heavyweight title, create a two year soap opera,

403
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,920
Speaker 2: possibly lie publicly, according to Dana about the specifics of that,

404
00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,640
Speaker 2: and then be like, oh, fighting on the White House lawn, dude,

405
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,879
Speaker 2: I'm back in. Let's go fuck off, log off and

406
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 2: fuck off.

407
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,720
Speaker 1: Right, don't need to see you ever again. Goodbye.

408
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:42,400
Speaker 2: I'm good.

409
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: I'm not interested in him fighting, not interested in storylines

410
00:18:46,280 --> 00:18:48,680
Speaker 1: around him, didn't even want to put we Actually, Brian

411
00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:50,359
Speaker 1: and I debated about how much we even wanted to

412
00:18:50,400 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: put this in the rundown. It seemed relevant enough that

413
00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 1: we couldn't ignore it, but less than zero interest in

414
00:18:57,080 --> 00:18:59,399
Speaker 1: any of this and partly, but I also think partly

415
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:02,440
Speaker 1: he there's two things happening. One was this news about

416
00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,159
Speaker 1: the White House. The second part is that I think

417
00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,960
Speaker 1: he just realizes that his retirement went really, really bad.

418
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:09,040
Speaker 2: Oh how could it?

419
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:12,439
Speaker 1: And how and everything that he thought was beautiful got torched.

420
00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:14,480
Speaker 2: Oh you mean there was no video package talking about

421
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:14,959
Speaker 2: his greatness.

422
00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, and so and then the fans being like, yeah,

423
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,119
Speaker 1: good riddance, Like there was a lot of that. I

424
00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: think he's trying to claw a little bit of dignity

425
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 1: back if he can find somebody.

426
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,119
Speaker 2: So he still wants super fights with Derek Lewis and

427
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:24,960
Speaker 2: Jamal Hill, as.

428
00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 1: He famously absolutely uninterested in ever seeing him compete in

429
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 1: any facet whatsoever.

430
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:33,040
Speaker 2: Well, he's not the only person who were I can't

431
00:19:33,040 --> 00:19:35,119
Speaker 2: say largely uninterested, because I've been trying to make fantasy

432
00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 2: matchups with Connor McGregor just to use that name to

433
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 2: put over the next superstar. But Connor McGregor also jumped

434
00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:45,280
Speaker 2: at the opportunity to return at the White House. Would

435
00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 2: be a very intriguing offer, would bring me back in

436
00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 2: to focus on my return Correctly. McGregor would also say

437
00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,560
Speaker 2: Luke that after he wins the Irish presidency. Right, the

438
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,560
Speaker 2: history of going to the US and competing on the

439
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 2: White House as the the Irish president is what would

440
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 2: motivate him. He didn't have that same motivation when he

441
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 2: had a broken toe head of the Chandler fight. But

442
00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 2: is this the is this the only way it's gonna

443
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,159
Speaker 2: bring Like, you know, Mike Michael Chandler's like, see you

444
00:20:11,200 --> 00:20:12,959
Speaker 2: at the top Did he mean the top of Capitol Hill?

445
00:20:13,000 --> 00:20:14,280
Speaker 2: Is that what he's talking about? Is this the only

446
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 2: way we get McGregor Chandler if it's headlining this White

447
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 2: House paper?

448
00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:21,760
Speaker 1: It seems like that seems like that would that that

449
00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 1: to me, whether you're there's one question about like how

450
00:20:24,359 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: interested are you and McGregor at all? And by the way,

451
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: by July of next year, he'll either be I think

452
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,920
Speaker 1: he'll be just days away from thirty eight. Yeah, so

453
00:20:34,040 --> 00:20:38,439
Speaker 1: I mean we're talking old right, old old uh. Independent

454
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 1: of the question about whether or not you want to

455
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:47,239
Speaker 1: see him compete at all. It does though, I mean,

456
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,680
Speaker 1: if they go through with this, you would imagine he

457
00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:53,360
Speaker 1: would be on the card if he actually made available.

458
00:20:53,440 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 2: Right, let's let's put any political leanings or tackiness which

459
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 2: is really what I'm focused on it. I mean, like

460
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 2: we're already deep into combat sports and politics being in

461
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 2: just a gross marriage across the board that it's hard

462
00:21:05,359 --> 00:21:08,120
Speaker 2: to avoid, so spit separate from those feelings. Let's say

463
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 2: this happens, and let's say, as Donald Trump said, we

464
00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 2: want championship fights, we want you know, big names on

465
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 2: there with a good card. How do you book this?

466
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 2: Given the setting and the connection to both America on

467
00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 2: America's two hundred and fiftieth birthday and the political side

468
00:21:22,000 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 2: of it, are you putting only US stars in there?

469
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,960
Speaker 2: Because Don Davis put out a tweet that he got

470
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:30,360
Speaker 2: rightfully ripped for which was basically, hey at Donald Trump saying, hey,

471
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 2: here's a PFL supercard that could be the setup. We

472
00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,399
Speaker 2: could do PFL in the afternoon, UFC at night, and

473
00:21:36,480 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 2: it was all of his Russian fighters basically you know

474
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,200
Speaker 2: what I mean linked together on there? Would this be

475
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 2: American stars only? Would it be American against British to

476
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,560
Speaker 2: recreate that seventeen seventy sixth feel What the hell would

477
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 2: we do here?

478
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,639
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't get it. I mean I

479
00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:52,879
Speaker 1: can get that Connor would be something of a.

480
00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 2: Connor Chandler as the main event.

481
00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean again, Connor is also another reprehensible figure

482
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,679
Speaker 1: whose participation in the sport, to me is absolutely unnecessary

483
00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:04,119
Speaker 1: nor desired. But again, I would imagine that, I'm a

484
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 1: number of the fans would disagree, So you would imagine

485
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 1: he would be on there by virtue of sports significance.

486
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:13,440
Speaker 1: But I don't know how you match make the rest

487
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,200
Speaker 1: of it because you got Kayla as a champion, But

488
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:17,520
Speaker 1: how many more times is she going to compete? How

489
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,280
Speaker 1: much time does she have left beyond that? I don't know.

490
00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:23,800
Speaker 1: And it's like even then, it's like, well, what American

491
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: contenders do you have? I mean, it'll be hard to

492
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:29,159
Speaker 1: say what you have nine months from now because that

493
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:32,440
Speaker 1: would more closely mirror what you could do with the

494
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,240
Speaker 1: male American champions. At the moment, we don't have any,

495
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: not no male American champion.

496
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: Kayla is the only female.

497
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:38,679
Speaker 1: Only one period.

498
00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 2: Interesting.

499
00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:42,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it. So it's a little tough to say

500
00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:45,240
Speaker 1: who would go on the car again, That's what I'm saying.

501
00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 2: Well, maybe if they did a freedom card with all

502
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:48,320
Speaker 2: Freedom Avengers like Chandler.

503
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't. I just don't quite get

504
00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:51,800
Speaker 1: what this has to do with Fourth of July. Then

505
00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,840
Speaker 1: people just have parties fourth of July, and this is

506
00:22:53,840 --> 00:22:56,040
Speaker 1: the White House lawn. But again, it'd be one thing

507
00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: if this was like at the Capitol one Arena, just

508
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: you know, a few blocks away, which will be an

509
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 1: appropriate venue. This is on government property and so therefore

510
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 1: it takes on a different kind of significance.

511
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,879
Speaker 2: So it's a very confused thing to do. All right.

512
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,960
Speaker 2: Is there a way that Dana could use John's interest

513
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,879
Speaker 2: in this in backdoring him into agreeing to do the

514
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:18,280
Speaker 2: Aspinal fight a year from now, John, you got a

515
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 2: full year to get all your excuses on.

516
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: God, I don't even care about that fight.

517
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 2: I hate this so much.

518
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:25,640
Speaker 1: I don't even fucking care. Dude, Fuck fuck that fight,

519
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 1: and I'm being dead serious, fucking fight. I don't I

520
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 1: don't care.

521
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 2: If John Davis not realized that when he puts that aggressive,

522
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:33,200
Speaker 2: shameless tweet out there, when he gets off of LinkedIn

523
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 2: long enough to put that tweet out there, that he's

524
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,080
Speaker 2: basically telling the world we are number two. He's done,

525
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 2: I guess, saying that we are the co leader, saying

526
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,080
Speaker 2: we are number two and we will be the JV

527
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,720
Speaker 2: game before the Varsity comes in later it's it's the

528
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 2: card itself that Don put together was actually kind of interesting.

529
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 2: It's the best that PFL actually has.

530
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: To offer, and what not a bad card? But again,

531
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:54,720
Speaker 1: what the fuck does that have to do with fourth

532
00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,280
Speaker 1: of July? And then why are you trying to be

533
00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 1: the fluffer for the you know, the four record?

534
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,920
Speaker 2: It was what Francis versus Bedeem Nemkov in the main event,

535
00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,480
Speaker 2: then it was Usman versus Hughes. Part two is Mander

536
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:10,159
Speaker 2: mahamedelv in the Cole Maine Dakota, Ditcheva versus uh Gorilla

537
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 2: shows me Liz Carmoush and then you know, further on

538
00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 2: their best against their best good card, Don not bad, horrible,

539
00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:18,600
Speaker 2: shameless sort of linking.

540
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:22,760
Speaker 1: To that, but wow, wow, hey Long Island, Luke, would

541
00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:25,400
Speaker 1: you want to see Connor? Okay? Okay, so your whole

542
00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,880
Speaker 1: number one thing is all right, you know, you don't

543
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: really care about this kind of thing, and maybe it's

544
00:24:29,560 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 1: not a cup of tea, but a good card is

545
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:34,200
Speaker 1: a good card. What does a good card to you

546
00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: for this kind of event?

547
00:24:35,960 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 3: Look like not Connor at the top of it, Like

548
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,159
Speaker 3: I think, actually good card. I don't know, Just like

549
00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:44,359
Speaker 3: a if it's gonna are reassuming it's going to be

550
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 3: a pay per view or a fight night, it has

551
00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 3: to be a pay per viewer.

552
00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't fucking know.

553
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 1: I don't know.

554
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 2: I mean this, who gets to go to it? Is?

555
00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 3: It?

556
00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:52,840
Speaker 2: Is it the kind of thing like the Times Square

557
00:24:52,920 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 2: card for Turkey where it's only billionaires.

558
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: And in the White House property is again, now this

559
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 1: would include parts you couldn't use, but in totality is

560
00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,920
Speaker 1: eighteen fucking acres like there is room.

561
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,000
Speaker 2: To you know, they do a bi of all people

562
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:06,919
Speaker 2: that were arrested in jan six, and they'd be partoned

563
00:25:06,960 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: publicly before the main event.

564
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,879
Speaker 1: I actually joke when they announced this, I'm like, instead

565
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: of July fourth, this should have been on January sixth.

566
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,400
Speaker 1: And by the way, when Dana White dah, I'm sorry,

567
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,240
Speaker 1: when when Donald Trump made the speech that sent everyone

568
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,680
Speaker 1: to the Capitol, he was at the ellipse just over

569
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 1: the White House lawn to do that, by the way,

570
00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:22,840
Speaker 1: so to me, it actually lines up. The symmetry with

571
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:27,440
Speaker 1: jan six is much tighter. Actually, but I forgot I

572
00:25:27,480 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 1: was gonna say, doesn't matter.

573
00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 2: It was probably about the front lawn and politics and

574
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:31,640
Speaker 2: who's going to be there.

575
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 1: Oh, it was saying the space is big enough to

576
00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,080
Speaker 1: do The question is not to me, the question is

577
00:25:36,119 --> 00:25:39,080
Speaker 1: not do you have enough space? The question is how

578
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,800
Speaker 1: much is that going to cost? And the logistics of

579
00:25:41,880 --> 00:25:47,000
Speaker 1: getting twenty thousand people onto White House property and off

580
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,720
Speaker 1: without a security incident, that is not I mean, even

581
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 1: if you're the most in favor of this, you have

582
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: to recognize that is not a small operation. That is

583
00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: a varied It's literally never been done in the history

584
00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 1: of the count Marine won fucking lands in that space.

585
00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,080
Speaker 1: So like I'm not saying they can't or shouldn't do it,

586
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:09,679
Speaker 1: but more like that is a tough It's one thing

587
00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 1: if you go to T mobile or MSG where it's contained,

588
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:15,200
Speaker 1: yes you have all you know, the security protocol and

589
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 1: what has to be in place. That's happened, which is

590
00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:18,520
Speaker 1: why he can go to those and get and get

591
00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:19,120
Speaker 1: out and there's.

592
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:19,600
Speaker 2: Really no issue.

593
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 1: The White House lawn to me is obviously the security

594
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: will be present, but it's a very very Also by

595
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:28,920
Speaker 1: the way, small note it rains in July in DC,

596
00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 1: so what it's an outdoor they put.

597
00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,960
Speaker 2: A stage over. You have to put but Dana White

598
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,840
Speaker 2: hates doing that, of course, but you know it's going

599
00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 2: to change. That is when Crawford Canelo lives up to

600
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,880
Speaker 2: expectation from a production standpoint in the Leadis Stadium on netflilx.

601
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,119
Speaker 1: That changes it being there's going to wake up and go,

602
00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:43,720
Speaker 1: oh shit.

603
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:45,399
Speaker 2: We can be you know, Tko is going to get

604
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 2: in his ear and let's let's put Connor in a

605
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 2: soccer stadium or something.

606
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:50,879
Speaker 1: The whole thing is weird. I don't know how you

607
00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:52,680
Speaker 1: book it. You know, I'm sure they can't do it,

608
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:53,320
Speaker 1: but it's weird.

609
00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:57,080
Speaker 2: Are you down with the stipulation that to truly celebrate America,

610
00:26:57,200 --> 00:27:00,600
Speaker 2: all the fights are US citizens against non US citizens

611
00:27:00,800 --> 00:27:03,920
Speaker 2: and all losers get deported? I don't.

612
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 1: I don't think the Hunger Games should be how we

613
00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 1: do official government policy.

614
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,720
Speaker 2: But God only knows what we'll do. What a topic,

615
00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:12,280
Speaker 2: what way to lead off the show?

616
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: By the way, I'm happy to not bring this shit up.

617
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 1: This was the biggest news in the fucking sport.

618
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 2: Like what you know what I mean, I'm waiting for

619
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: the tweet. I'm sorry the text for my parents that

620
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 2: are gonna inevitably that's going to say, hey, you're covering

621
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 2: the fight at the White House, like you you know,

622
00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:30,080
Speaker 2: would you go no, No, that's that's not my thing.

623
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,080

631
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:53,720
Speaker 2: when Cuervo invented tequila. Since then, Cuervo has stayed true

632
00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,080
Speaker 2: to its roots. We're talking same family, same land, and

674
00:29:54,680 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 2: Yeah. By the way, what is you feeling about that one?

675
00:29:56,240 --> 00:30:00,480
Speaker 2: That one go the distance? I don't know. I mean, yes,

676
00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,840
Speaker 2: it should. They're both warriors. They've fought twice already. Both

677
00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,240

Speaker 2: in a retirement fight situation, is Poorie gonna go balls

679
00:30:09,360 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 2: to the wall? Is gonna show up old? You're not

680
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:11,880
Speaker 2: really sure?

681
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: Okay, Long Island, Luke. Obviously the odds are what would

682
00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 1: dictate how you would bet. But what would you anticipate

683
00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,280
Speaker 1: the betting being like in terms of whether in the

684
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: fight goes long or not.

685
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 3: I did peak at them a few weeks ago, and

686
00:30:23,400 --> 00:30:27,320
Speaker 3: it was a pickham Ooh, and I think like odds aside,

687
00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 3: Dustin's already beaten him twice. It's his retirement fight. It's

688
00:30:30,960 --> 00:30:33,160
Speaker 3: in New Orleans. A lot of things are making me point.

689
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 2: To Dustin here.

690
00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:36,280
Speaker 1: No, but I'm saying, do you think it goes the

691
00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:36,880
Speaker 1: full distance?

692
00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 2: Oh?

693
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 1: Then yeah, I do.

694
00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:41,400
Speaker 2: I definitely do. That's just as easy as that. Also,

695
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,239
Speaker 2: I want to remind you that nine days from now,

696

699
00:30:55,040 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 2: UFC three eighteen pregame preview, brought to you by Cuervo

700
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,680
Speaker 2: LTBC Jed Messue the second.

701
00:31:00,680 --> 00:31:03,120
Speaker 1: That's right, let's go, We're gonna get lice. Let's go,

702
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 1: okay Cuervo for everybody.

703
00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 2: Hey, let's go to topic number two, another weird one,

704
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:11,240
Speaker 2: fresh off of his unanimous decision loss to Jake Paul

705
00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:13,480
Speaker 2: in which he really didn't box at all for four

706
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 2: rounds and didn't start punching until there was only two

707
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 2: rounds to go. Julio Sayesar Chavez Junior was detained by

708
00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 2: ICE over the weekend and is set for deportation to Mexico,

709
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,440
Speaker 2: where he has reportedly wanted for activity related to the

710
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 2: Cineloa cartel. Various reports suggested he might have acted as

711
00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:36,760
Speaker 2: something of an enforcer for the cartel. While these chargers

712
00:31:36,800 --> 00:31:40,120
Speaker 2: are serious, there's some real questions here, including why was

713
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:43,960
Speaker 2: this fight between Paul and Chavez allowed to go forward

714
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 2: when the information was known before the fight of Chavez's

715
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 2: whereabouts and his situation with the government. Luke, It's been

716
00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 2: long known that Chaves had a romantic relationship with somebody

717
00:31:55,520 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 2: that was a extended connection to the Cineloa cartel through Chao. Yeah,

718
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 2: and there's some reports, as I mentioned, that he was

719
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:05,480
Speaker 2: used as a as a muscleman, a body to rough

720
00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 2: some people up. We've got some Homeland Security comments here

721
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,200
Speaker 2: and then we can react to this is a wild.

722
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:12,520
Speaker 1: Ask believe this story?

723
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:14,440
Speaker 2: Uh what does it say there off the top?

724
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:19,120
Speaker 1: You take off the DHS GOV watermark? All right, well,

725
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:22,000
Speaker 1: all right, Ice arrested Mexican boxer and criminal illegal alien

726
00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:24,840
Speaker 1: Julio says our Chavez Junior. He is now being processed

727
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,080
Speaker 1: for exped at a removal from the United States. This

728
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:30,400
Speaker 1: Cineloa cartel affiliate. But they're making some broad declarations about

729
00:32:30,400 --> 00:32:32,479
Speaker 1: something that hasn't been proven in court. But Okay has

730
00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 1: an active arrest warrant in Mexico. That might be true

731
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: for sure for his involvement in organized crime and trafficking firearms,

732
00:32:38,440 --> 00:32:42,200
Speaker 1: ammunitions and explosives. Under President Trump, no one is above

733
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: the law, including world famous athletes. Our message to any

734
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 1: cartel affiliates in the US is clear. We will find

735
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: you and you will face consequences. The days of unchecked

736
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,120
Speaker 1: cartel violence are over. End quote.

737
00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: We also have video of Chavez Junior getting captured from

738
00:32:57,320 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 2: a home that he owns outside of Last Angelus. There

739
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,040
Speaker 2: wild stuff. So look, the biggest question here is related

740
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:07,720
Speaker 2: to the timing of this. It seems like it was approven.

741
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,760
Speaker 2: That's the only question, Okay, But it does seem like

742
00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 2: it's a proven fact that they were investigating him leading

743
00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:14,360
Speaker 2: up to the fight. They knew his whereabouts, they knew

744
00:33:14,360 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 2: the situation. They waited for the fight to continue is

745
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 2: that a call that Jake Paul makes to the way

746
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 2: to Houston says can we wait until after this or

747
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 2: does he not have any knowledge? And this is a

748
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 2: surprise to him because it's a shocker to see this

749
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:28,959
Speaker 2: play out and this gentleman get deported. Who I mean,

750
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,000
Speaker 2: it's tough to say anything good about Shavis Junior right

751
00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 2: now or the last twelve years of his career. And

752
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:35,160
Speaker 2: he certainly didn't give himself the best chance to win

753
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 2: when he fought Jake Paul just a week and a

754
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 2: half ago. What the hell is this?

755
00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:43,520
Speaker 1: Let me just say this to me, the ice component

756
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,360
Speaker 1: is really not even remotely the most interesting or even

757
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,640
Speaker 1: relevant or even part I even care to discuss. Sure,

758
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 1: it's the Cartel association for me. Now again, there have

759
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: been a number of reports allegend connections. As you indicated

760
00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 1: that there would be guys that the Cartel would have

761
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,840
Speaker 1: some issue with hang him upside down and they again

762
00:34:01,880 --> 00:34:04,120
Speaker 1: the allegations are that Chavez would box him up like

763
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,160
Speaker 1: a body bag as they hung upside down.

764
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,480
Speaker 2: And his baby mama is somehow related.

765
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:16,120
Speaker 1: Is related to El Chappo. So to me, you know

766
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:17,759
Speaker 1: the fact that I scrabbed him up and put him

767
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 1: into tention is you know, grabs headlines. But these are allegations,

768
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:24,600
Speaker 1: and so I want to be very clear. I don't

769
00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 1: I saw Mexican media over the weekend because I went

770
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,359
Speaker 1: and tried to find what anybody was saying. His dad

771
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 1: and his family put out a statement, his dad did

772
00:34:32,640 --> 00:34:34,719
Speaker 1: an interview on the street actually, and then his family

773
00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:36,920
Speaker 1: put out a statement. They're claiming he's innocent and this

774
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:38,080
Speaker 1: will all be proven.

775
00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 2: You know.

776
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:40,839
Speaker 1: Of course your response might be that, well, of course,

777
00:34:40,880 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 1: you know, yeah, family is gonna say that. So I

778
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 1: don't know how to respond to these allegations except to

779
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:49,360
Speaker 1: say this BC, if they are true, like that he

780
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,600
Speaker 1: acted as some kind of a thug, trafficker, an enforcer

781
00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:57,360
Speaker 1: of some kind for the cartel, even as like an affiliate.

782
00:34:57,440 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 1: Not he's not really in it, but you know.

783
00:34:58,800 --> 00:34:59,279
Speaker 2: Next to it.

784
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:04,359
Speaker 1: Would that really surprise you? No, it wouldn't surprise me either.

785
00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:07,000
Speaker 1: I think that's the takeaway for me is like, I

786
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: don't know if they're true, and if he is innocent,

787
00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:10,240
Speaker 1: I do hope.

788
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 2: That remotely surprised that he's connected to this. The question

789
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 2: is why would they let the fight go forward?

790
00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:15,240
Speaker 1: I have no way of answering.

791
00:35:15,400 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 2: I mean, there's similar. I guess the thing that it

792
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 2: reminds me of is in twenty twelve, when Floyd Mayweather

793
00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:22,440
Speaker 2: was sent to go to jail for so much smaller

794
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:27,239
Speaker 2: domestic rights, but the state of law of Nevada, the

795
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:29,680
Speaker 2: you know, the commission in Las Vegas, they basically decided,

796
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:34,239
Speaker 2: let's let's let's push Floyd's jail sentence to start back

797
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:36,320
Speaker 2: a month so that he can fight Codo first. And

798
00:35:36,400 --> 00:35:38,520
Speaker 2: the justification was that that pay per view would bring

799
00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 2: in so many millions to the city and hotel and

800
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:43,880
Speaker 2: gambling and all that that we were just like, what,

801
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 2: you're going to delay his jail sentence so that the

802
00:35:47,000 --> 00:35:49,440
Speaker 2: everyone can make money off him. Is this similar to that?

803
00:35:49,840 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 2: Did the government make that decision of let's let him

804
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 2: go forward with the fight against you know, America's Jake

805
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 2: Paul first he was gonna lose. It's just bizarre to me.

806
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,399
Speaker 1: I mean again, this is one of the things where

807
00:36:00,400 --> 00:36:03,160
Speaker 1: it's like, I don't know how you have these conversations

808
00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 1: without some degree of a political But.

809
00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:08,160
Speaker 2: He's showing up to the way and he's showing up

810
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,120
Speaker 2: to the press conference. They know where the frick is.

811
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,000
Speaker 1: How tight are Jake, Paul and Trump? A serious question?

812
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 1: How tight are that?

813
00:36:14,719 --> 00:36:17,520
Speaker 2: Do you remember inauguration day when Jake, Logan and Connor

814
00:36:17,600 --> 00:36:20,719
Speaker 2: McGregor were in the van with Missus going.

815
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:22,080
Speaker 1: To the So what he got invited?

816
00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:23,520
Speaker 2: A big deal? That doesn't mean that much? Okay that

817
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 2: I think that means a lot. Does not mean a lot.

818
00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 2: Who else was there? That he's a.

819
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: Respected booster, That doesn't necessarily mean that he has a

820
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 1: bat phone he can call the admin and tell them

821
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 1: about his interests.

822
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:36,320
Speaker 2: You know, I don't. I don't know.

823
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,319
Speaker 1: I don't know. Part of me wonders like did they

824
00:36:39,520 --> 00:36:41,279
Speaker 1: know about it and that they saw Jake was a

825
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: booster and they're like, wait till the money is made

826
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:43,480
Speaker 1: and then do it.

827
00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:44,279
Speaker 2: That is one.

828
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:46,759
Speaker 1: But I mean, that's just a conspiracy theory. I don't

829
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 1: have any I don't I don't even have the slightest

830
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,160
Speaker 1: degree of proof to But it came.

831
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 2: Out in the news that the that the government was

832
00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:56,759
Speaker 2: was monitoring this. Yes, they knew that to them, that

833
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:58,400
Speaker 2: he showed up on TV and they're like, oh, we

834
00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:00,200
Speaker 2: got to go get them now, Like they knew that's right?

835
00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,720
Speaker 1: That there is again, it's it's it's just but certainly

836
00:37:02,800 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: to the point that this whole thing went down, it

837
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 1: raised deep amounts of suspicion about what was known and when.

838
00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:12,239
Speaker 1: And then also with Chavez Junior, Dude, this guy, I mean,

839
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,840
Speaker 1: it was an uninspiring pick when Jake you know, selected

840
00:37:15,920 --> 00:37:17,840
Speaker 1: him for any number of reasons, but part of it

841
00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 1: was Remember he had gun charges previously related to the

842
00:37:21,280 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 1: you know, getting out of rehab.

843
00:37:23,080 --> 00:37:24,480
Speaker 2: And he had to work visa in the States I

844
00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 2: think two years ago, but it expired.

845
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,520
Speaker 1: He inspired, Like, the guy is a fuck up of

846
00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,520
Speaker 1: epic proportions, So it would not surprise me if after

847
00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 1: he has his day in court these charges are proven, Like,

848
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:37,600
Speaker 1: I would not in any way be surprised.

849
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 2: But the whole thing is fucking wacky. Is another epic

850
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 2: stain on the downhill slide of Shaves Junior.

851
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 1: He is the opposite of his dad. He is the

852
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:49,560
Speaker 1: absolute opposite in every fucking way.

853
00:37:49,719 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, his dad also post career, got involved

854
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:53,520
Speaker 2: in a lot of drugs and a lot of craziness,

855
00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:55,839
Speaker 2: not to this level, but it didn't derail his life

856
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 2: like this.

857
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,560
Speaker 1: Sure, sure, I mean, this was like I'm not gonna say,

858
00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,279
Speaker 1: it's an international manhunt that's not right. I mean, they

859
00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:04,000
Speaker 1: probably knew his whereabouts, but like, this is international, one

860
00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:06,279
Speaker 1: country telling another one. We've got a warrant for this

861
00:38:06,360 --> 00:38:11,800
Speaker 1: guy for cartel behavior. Send us him now, that is another.

862
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,680
Speaker 2: Level, back to back set of topics.

863
00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 1: But I can't believe this. I can't believe this is

864
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,200
Speaker 1: real life. But this is where we are.

865
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,560
Speaker 2: There we go. I mean, there's not much else to

866
00:38:20,640 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 2: say besides I guess I'm not surprised, But also, like,

867
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,080
Speaker 2: can we get in on this timeline if.

868
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 1: He's a question making even if he's exonerated, Like so,

869
00:38:28,719 --> 00:38:31,279
Speaker 1: let this is a serious question. Let's say we're gonna

870
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,360
Speaker 1: send him back to Mexico. He's gonna have whatever's gonna.

871
00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:33,640
Speaker 2: Happen to him.

872
00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 1: But let's say that the family is right and this

873
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:38,800
Speaker 1: was somehow I don't know, a misunderstanding. Even with that,

874
00:38:39,600 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 1: is he ever gonna fight in the States again?

875
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,000
Speaker 2: I don't see how right if he gets deported, I

876
00:38:45,040 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 2: don't see.

877
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:47,560
Speaker 1: How well just because you got deported to mean there's

878
00:38:47,640 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 1: no way back to.

879
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,279
Speaker 2: Work visa and a certain I just don't know what,

880
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,399
Speaker 2: Like this was the last carnival fight opportunity to get

881
00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:56,000
Speaker 2: in shape and make a little bit of money. Yeah,

882
00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,439
Speaker 2: he got in shape, he made the little bit of money.

883
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:01,239
Speaker 2: He barely fought, so he's a full time con artist

884
00:39:01,320 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 2: as a fighter.

885
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:03,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, even without this might like what's.

886
00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,960
Speaker 2: Left Darren Hill or you know, is it gonna box

887
00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:07,960
Speaker 2: An Easton Gibb. I mean, like what's next? Like where

888
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 2: else do you go from here? There's really nowhere else

889
00:39:09,600 --> 00:39:12,080
Speaker 2: to go unless you're gonna do like BKFC or offer

890
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,919
Speaker 2: yourself in an MMA fight. I don't know like that. Yeah,

891
00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:15,200
Speaker 2: I'm just.

892
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 1: Saying, even if he's exonerated, I feel like it's done.

893
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:20,160
Speaker 1: It's done.

894
00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 2: It's long, it's long done. Wow, let's go to topic now.

895
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: Can we have a fucking topic that isn't terrible?

896
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:27,799
Speaker 2: Well, we got another one, that one that might be done. Hey,

897
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:30,759
Speaker 2: let's talk about one championship and the unfortunate slide that

898
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,279
Speaker 2: the promotion continues to go on. You heard when when

899
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:38,160
Speaker 2: good Old Acts from MMA draw broke that one championships

900
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 2: run on in the States, at least on Prime Video

901
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:42,920
Speaker 2: seems to be coming to an end. Well, now we

902
00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,520
Speaker 2: have some financial updates about more of an aggressive decline.

903
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 2: Reports indicate that one championship has a consolidated loss of

904
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,839
Speaker 2: ninety million dollars in twenty twenty three and quote cumulative

905
00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,120
Speaker 2: deficits now exceeding five hundred and thirty million against just

906
00:39:59,239 --> 00:40:02,359
Speaker 2: twenty four points six million and net assets at year

907
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 2: end end. Quote that comes from journalist Timothy Wheaton, who

908
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:07,520
Speaker 2: we of course have had on this show in the past.

909
00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:09,920
Speaker 2: Just tim to preview some big events down there in

910
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 2: one championship in general, kickboxing had for the for the

911
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:16,719
Speaker 2: the big which fight was that it was the one fight,

912
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 2: the kickboxing fight box and fight under the one banner. Yes, Luke,

913
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,480
Speaker 2: there's been an exodus recently of executive leaders of fighters

914
00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,440
Speaker 2: wating to carr, federal canceled events, virtually any other marker

915
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,040
Speaker 2: of decline that one can point to. What is the

916
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:33,040
Speaker 2: story in your eyes of one's decline and what does

917
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 2: it mean for MMA that they are almost certainly going

918
00:40:36,080 --> 00:40:39,080
Speaker 2: out of business at a time when they're less and

919
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,040
Speaker 2: less being considered in an MMA promotion?

920
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:42,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, the end is near.

921
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:42,960
Speaker 2: The end isneer?

922
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,560
Speaker 1: Put the graphic back up if you could long look.

923
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:45,879
Speaker 1: I want to go through it here piece by piece.

924
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,840
Speaker 1: You indicated the accumulative five hundred and thirty million in

925
00:40:49,920 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: total losses since the inception. But there's other parts of

926
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,040
Speaker 1: the story. We won't go through the whole part of it,

927
00:40:55,120 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: but very quickly, the QIA, the Guitar Investment Authority, they

928
00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:03,040
Speaker 1: are apparently not thrilled with the way in which their

929
00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:07,200
Speaker 1: investment has gone. The Amazon Prime Video and Turner Sports component.

930
00:41:07,239 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: They are basic, Well, Turner has already exited and as

931
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:10,359
Speaker 1: appears at Prime, they.

932
00:41:10,360 --> 00:41:12,920
Speaker 2: Kind of canceled their US expansion. Align with that.

933
00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:15,080
Speaker 1: That's right, and they now that's not to say they're

934
00:41:15,080 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: getting out of MA because they may want to get

935
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:18,480
Speaker 1: into the UFC business. They're they're room to be part

936
00:41:18,520 --> 00:41:19,520
Speaker 1: of that conversation right.

937
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:20,760
Speaker 2: Iving get into the UFC business.

938
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,440
Speaker 1: The Amazon Prime is considered to be a potential destination

939
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:26,879
Speaker 1: for UFC pay per views. Yeah, for the next TV deal.

940
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,839
Speaker 1: The esports thing folding, I don't think is a big deal. Also,

941
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:32,840
Speaker 1: you can see that you know, Chatre had public outbursts

942
00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: and feuds with both Japanese fighters and promotions, which I

943
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,920
Speaker 1: don't think did him a great degree of good. But

944
00:41:38,000 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 1: they had to cancel their August show and rebooked it

945
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 1: for a year later. Will he still do the Apprentice

946
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:44,799
Speaker 1: reality season four?

947
00:41:44,960 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 2: Whatever it is? Three?

948
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 1: I don't know, but like there's been staffing exodus, there's

949
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: been layoffs, there's been key executives who've left. Thank you

950
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,399
Speaker 1: for the graphic. I mean you get the idea like BC,

951
00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:57,160
Speaker 1: this is the beginning of the end, or some portion

952
00:41:57,280 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 1: of the end. It's not really far away at this point.

953
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:00,920
Speaker 1: And the thing that I would take away from this,

954
00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:02,839
Speaker 1: this is just a lesson that I draw. Everyone's gonna

955
00:42:02,840 --> 00:42:07,680
Speaker 1: have different ones every time. I cannot tell you how

956
00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,480
Speaker 1: many MMA organizational deaths I have lived through. I have

957
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 1: lived through countless of them, Belatore being the most recent,

958
00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,759
Speaker 1: but it goes on long, long, long before that. And

959
00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:24,120
Speaker 1: I do not mind, in any way, shape or form,

960
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:31,000
Speaker 1: have any issue pointing to chatry or other decisions that

961
00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 1: were made in that organization as a reason for their woes,

962
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:37,800
Speaker 1: like to degree to a degree self inflicted. There's simply

963
00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,320
Speaker 1: no question about it. And as you saw on that

964
00:42:39,400 --> 00:42:42,560
Speaker 1: graphic card, one of those reasons was this feuding that

965
00:42:42,640 --> 00:42:45,360
Speaker 1: he gets into with sometimes Japanese fighters and promoters, although

966
00:42:45,400 --> 00:42:47,520
Speaker 1: that it's not just limited to them.

967
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 2: And did they just recently move the home office.

968
00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:53,239
Speaker 1: They moved it to Thailand, Yes, which is obviously going

969
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,120
Speaker 1: to be a lot cheaper than Singapore that I don't

970
00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:58,200
Speaker 1: think is the biggest deal in the world, But the

971
00:42:58,280 --> 00:43:01,239
Speaker 1: one I want to make is BC. There is no

972
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:05,360
Speaker 1: possible way anyone can make the argument to me that

973
00:43:05,480 --> 00:43:08,360
Speaker 1: Oscar de la Hoya is a better promoter than Chatri.

974
00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 1: Absolutely know the fuck he is not, and yet he

975
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:15,040
Speaker 1: is still quite profitable in boxing. And part of that reason,

976
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,000
Speaker 1: of course, is because the way which that business is

977
00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:20,279
Speaker 1: structured that allows for a more robust competition. People are

978
00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,120
Speaker 1: gonna clown one, and there's plenty of reasons to do that.

979
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 1: But BC, the UFC getting into this grappling push, to me,

980
00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 1: was heavily influenced by the work One did first. In fact,

981
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,920
Speaker 1: they took well Mikey Mussimenti left, but Mikey Musimentchi got

982
00:43:33,960 --> 00:43:37,640
Speaker 1: on the MMA fans radars by virtue of what happened

983
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,400
Speaker 1: at one one doing four ounce muay Thai has been

984
00:43:41,480 --> 00:43:43,839
Speaker 1: something of a revelation. It would not surprise me at

985
00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:47,480
Speaker 1: all if you see American and potentially even UFC promoters

986
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,319
Speaker 1: getting into four ounce, if not muy Thai, some kind

987
00:43:50,320 --> 00:43:51,800
Speaker 1: of four ounce kickboxing.

988
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,680
Speaker 2: Clee combat monoposity takeover.

989
00:43:53,880 --> 00:43:57,359
Speaker 1: So my point being is one actually with their rule

990
00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,600
Speaker 1: set and some of the changes that they made to

991
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,799
Speaker 1: how an MMA product can look. I've said this before.

992
00:44:02,920 --> 00:44:05,759
Speaker 1: They were the one true alternative to the UFC in

993
00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,880
Speaker 1: ways that PFL could never be. They can't manage their business,

994
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,799
Speaker 1: both because of the nature of the industry as well

995
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: as their own errors. But they did make some important contributions.

996
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:16,560
Speaker 1: It's just I hope everyone can read the writing on

997
00:44:16,600 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 1: the wall. They're not going to be here too much.

998
00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:22,240
Speaker 2: Well, you can read Timothy Wheaton's Low Kick MMA story

999
00:44:22,320 --> 00:44:24,600
Speaker 2: that goes in deeper depth on their financial woes. How

1000
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,200
Speaker 2: much is this tied to what we talked about last

1001
00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,160
Speaker 2: week from the standpoint of that UFC grip on the

1002
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,880
Speaker 2: industry and how it essentially is suffocating all potential in

1003
00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:38,320
Speaker 2: the States, at least it's suffocating all potential.

1004
00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:41,160
Speaker 1: Well, the bummer here, I mean, I guess here's another

1005
00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:43,160
Speaker 1: thing that one did I think is kind of interesting.

1006
00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:46,400
Speaker 1: One was able to work in conjunction with a willing

1007
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,720
Speaker 1: commission in this particular case, Colorado, to have a different

1008
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 1: rule set.

1009
00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:51,480
Speaker 2: This is what I mean.

1010
00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:54,040
Speaker 1: People are like, oh, Chatri is a terrible promoter. Again,

1011
00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:55,319
Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit here and be like he's

1012
00:44:55,320 --> 00:44:58,640
Speaker 1: a great promoter, but he is definitely not worse than

1013
00:44:58,680 --> 00:45:03,160
Speaker 1: some very profitable box promoters, and you cannot deny one

1014
00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:08,399
Speaker 1: has been an interesting contributor with rule differences, product differences, differentiation,

1015
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,160
Speaker 1: a lot of things that I think other promoters are

1016
00:45:11,200 --> 00:45:14,200
Speaker 1: gonna pick up on when they can to bring differences

1017
00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:14,880
Speaker 1: to the space.

1018
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 2: They were leaders in that.

1019
00:45:16,480 --> 00:45:18,000
Speaker 1: Way, and if it was a different kind of market

1020
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 1: to the point you're raising, some of that might have succeeded.

1021
00:45:21,880 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 1: But that's just not the world we're in anymore. So

1022
00:45:24,400 --> 00:45:28,520
Speaker 1: guys like this will just again, he's got plenty of problems,

1023
00:45:28,680 --> 00:45:32,359
Speaker 1: plenty of problems. But you know, I don't know, man,

1024
00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:34,480
Speaker 1: I'm gonna miss the one product when it's gone, like

1025
00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:36,920
Speaker 1: there's not who's just like one? Right now?

1026
00:45:37,000 --> 00:45:39,600
Speaker 2: In mma no one? There isn't one?

1027
00:45:40,080 --> 00:45:42,279
Speaker 1: How much how much of a one? Well, look how

1028
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,320
Speaker 1: much of a one? I'm not gonna say, fan, but

1029
00:45:45,160 --> 00:45:46,400
Speaker 1: watcher of their events?

1030
00:45:46,680 --> 00:45:47,200
Speaker 2: Have you been?

1031
00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,360
Speaker 3: I really? I own Amazon fire sticks, so when I

1032
00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:53,120
Speaker 3: open it, it'll like at the banner up top, show

1033
00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 3: me that one is live. But up until I see

1034
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:57,440
Speaker 3: that banner that it's live, I have no idea it's

1035
00:45:57,480 --> 00:46:01,719
Speaker 3: even happening, right watch Friday mornings though the muay Thai

1036
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:04,000
Speaker 3: those bro those diliver right, and early those they.

1037
00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,839
Speaker 2: Do those deliver. These are three awful topics to get.

1038
00:46:06,920 --> 00:46:08,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, we need a palate. Cleans are real bad?

1039
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:10,719
Speaker 2: Can we show for next yearning?

1040
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,680
Speaker 1: Which is? Which is real? But I'm like, what were

1041
00:46:12,719 --> 00:46:13,640
Speaker 1: the other stories?

1042
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:16,879
Speaker 3: Irrelevant? Breaking news?

1043
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:18,000
Speaker 1: Let's hear these.

1044
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:21,799

Speaker 2: Wasn't that the one he put those rhythms on those?

1056
00:46:43,040 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 3: We're pretty sure?

1057
00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1058
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,480

00:46:46,480 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: were the Beatles?

Speaker 1: Pete Best, that's the one, Pete Best.

1065
00:46:56,760 --> 00:46:59,400

Speaker 1: He was not child porn. He had a skull in

1079
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,240
Speaker 1: his possessions. He was having mental problem.

1080
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:37,920
Speaker 2: Do you think he had glass jars filled with snakes,

1081
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 2: like a whole room of just snakes.

1082
00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:44,399
Speaker 1: Me let me say something, If you own snakes, you're

1083
00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:46,160
Speaker 1: a weird motherfucker. Okay.

1084
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,040
Speaker 2: Do you think we have members of our audience who

1085
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:49,840
Speaker 2: who own multiple states or the.

Speaker 1: five dms from snake owners assuring me that they were correct.

1088
00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:58,879
Speaker 2: Do you think they can win our MK? In your house.

1089
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:01,360
Speaker 2: Uh set contest where you wow?

1090
00:48:02,200 --> 00:48:04,520
Speaker 3: I was going to say, everyone competing to have MK

1091
00:48:04,680 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 3: in their house definitely owned snakes.

1092
00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:12,640
Speaker 2: I tell you what, I tell you what.

1093
00:48:12,840 --> 00:48:15,200
Speaker 1: I could be convinced to go into that house, that

1094
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,320
Speaker 1: house of literally the house of snakes.

1095
00:48:18,000 --> 00:48:18,920
Speaker 2: I could be convinced.

1096
00:48:19,120 --> 00:48:21,080
Speaker 1: All right, can we have a fucking topic.

1097
00:48:20,880 --> 00:48:23,879
Speaker 2: That's not Let's go to topic number four should be better.

1098
00:48:23,960 --> 00:48:25,359
Speaker 2: We are at the yeah, yeah, here we go. We're

1099
00:48:25,360 --> 00:48:27,840
Speaker 2: at the midway point of the combat sports calendar in

1100
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. It's been a while for six months. Uh,

1101
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,200
Speaker 2: A lot still to be determined from the standpoint of

1102
00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,759
Speaker 2: the business end of things. But as we look, a

1103
00:48:37,840 --> 00:48:39,600
Speaker 2: lot of media outlets, of course are putting out their

1104
00:48:39,640 --> 00:48:41,880
Speaker 2: half year awards Fighter of the Year, Fight of the

1105
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:44,359
Speaker 2: Year at the midway point, Let's try a little something

1106
00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:47,839
Speaker 2: different by looking ahead. This year is indeed half over.

1107
00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,400
Speaker 2: So what do you want to see Luke in combat

1108
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 2: sports for the remainder of twenty twenty five. This could

1109
00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:59,040
Speaker 2: be fights, events, rule changes, more breasts on TV, whatever

1110
00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:02,719
Speaker 2: you're into. Put together a list when we both did

1111
00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,600
Speaker 2: of our top three biggest priorities for the rest of

1112
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:06,920
Speaker 2: the year.

1113
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 1: So I thought a lot about this one. I've got,

1114
00:49:09,000 --> 00:49:09,839
Speaker 1: I got a wish list.

1115
00:49:10,000 --> 00:49:11,719
Speaker 2: I got three as well, because that was the that

1116
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:14,200
Speaker 2: was the assignment. All right, You're like, I got seventeen

1117
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:15,239
Speaker 2: because I was thinking.

1118
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:16,800
Speaker 1: I was like, is there a rule change I'd like

1119
00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,160
Speaker 1: to see go through? Is there some kind of you know,

1120
00:49:19,360 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 1: special event? But like Canelo Crawford's going to scratch a

1121
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:23,960
Speaker 1: few of those itches, So no.

1122
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,480
Speaker 2: I could have put that on there, just the fallout

1123
00:49:27,480 --> 00:49:29,360
Speaker 2: of Canelo Crawford and what that can do to UFC

1124
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,200
Speaker 2: stadium fights, which is you seem to be a big

1125
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:33,759
Speaker 2: believer that that could do a lot. I do. I do. Yeah,

1126
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,839
Speaker 2: those are cultural events. Those are time in a place.

1127
00:49:37,000 --> 00:49:39,880
Speaker 1: I said, dude, Canelo Crawford being on Netflix in the

1128
00:49:39,920 --> 00:49:44,040
Speaker 1: way it's going is exactly what American boxing. But it's

1129
00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:45,680
Speaker 1: already on the list, so I can't check.

1130
00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:47,440
Speaker 2: Why don't you give me number three? What do you got?

1131
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,520
Speaker 1: All right? For number three? This is again, this is aspirational. Yes,

1132
00:49:51,920 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 1: Francis and Ganu versus Tom Aspital. Let's go Francis and

1133
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:56,320
Speaker 1: versus Tom Aspital.

1134
00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 2: Let's go.

1135
00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:58,239
Speaker 1: Who the fuck doesn't want to see that?

1136
00:49:58,719 --> 00:49:58,759
Speaker 3: What?

1137
00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:01,160
Speaker 2: Okay? If that that was to happen in the second

1138
00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,320
Speaker 2: or not even just to happen, but to be announced

1139
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:06,279
Speaker 2: in the second half of twenty five. What would have

1140
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,800
Speaker 2: to happen for that to become a reality? Would Francis

1141
00:50:09,880 --> 00:50:12,000
Speaker 2: have to end the PFL deal in some form.

1142
00:50:12,480 --> 00:50:14,719
Speaker 1: That's the only way he would which would not be great.

1143
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:16,440
Speaker 2: But then they'd have to tell Dana you're sitting this

1144
00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:20,479
Speaker 2: one out. Oh you mean TKOK would be like Dana,

1145
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:21,239
Speaker 2: you're kind of out on.

1146
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:24,120
Speaker 1: The issue with that is Francis can do well on

1147
00:50:24,200 --> 00:50:26,839
Speaker 1: pay per view, but not necessarily as the A side.

1148
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:30,279
Speaker 1: He works well as a very good B side, So

1149
00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,200
Speaker 1: I can see why TKO wouldn't necessarily put pressure on Dana.

1150
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:34,720
Speaker 1: But let's just put that to the side. CORP promotion

1151
00:50:34,800 --> 00:50:36,680
Speaker 1: we know is not going to work. But it's at

1152
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:41,000
Speaker 1: least conceivable that with six months six months ish left

1153
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,960
Speaker 1: in the year, you could get Francis back in UFC.

1154
00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:47,200
Speaker 1: Tom Aspinall even said this week there ain't many guys

1155
00:50:47,239 --> 00:50:47,640
Speaker 1: out there for.

1156
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:48,359
Speaker 2: Him to fight. He goes.

1157
00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 1: I think even said the division is not exactly on fire.

1158
00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:54,640
Speaker 1: He knows, he knows Francis Andnghanu versus tom Aspinall it

1159
00:50:54,680 --> 00:50:57,799
Speaker 1: would not last very long, but for as long as

1160
00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:00,880
Speaker 1: it lasted, Like BC on prom night, he's gonna give

1161
00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,320
Speaker 1: you all the pumping he's got. I would love to

1162
00:51:04,360 --> 00:51:06,080
Speaker 1: see Francis and Gondo versus Tom Aspital.

1163
00:51:06,719 --> 00:51:08,520
Speaker 2: That is a great one for number three, right there.

1164
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,680
Speaker 2: I like that, all right, number three. It's very simple,

1165
00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:12,880
Speaker 2: even though I broke the rule in the opening topic

1166
00:51:12,960 --> 00:51:15,360
Speaker 2: of the show, and I break it regularly as a

1167
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:21,120
Speaker 2: collective fan media member in combat sports, but specifically UFC

1168
00:51:22,239 --> 00:51:25,440
Speaker 2: less talk and jocking about John Jones and Connor McGregor

1169
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 2: more talking jocking about Ilia Taporia in Islam Mahachev and

1170
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:33,280
Speaker 2: obviously that plays into the idea of hey, UFC, promote

1171
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:36,680
Speaker 2: your stars, build two big fights. I want to be

1172
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:39,480
Speaker 2: looking at Ilia versus Islam as the UFC's version of

1173
00:51:39,600 --> 00:51:42,600
Speaker 2: Mayweather Paqiao. It's probably gonna take over a year to

1174
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 2: build to there, due to them being in separate divisions

1175
00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 2: in Islam, needing to fight for that welterweight title. But

1176
00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,400
Speaker 2: Luke I fall victim of this all the time. Oh,

1177
00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,480
Speaker 2: it's a it's a it's a dead you know, it's

1178
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 2: an in between week. What are we going to talk about? Oh? Well,

1179
00:51:53,560 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 2: Connor just tweeted this. John just tweeted this. As Rick

1180
00:51:56,200 --> 00:51:59,080
Speaker 2: Patino once famously said, Kevin McHale, Robert Parrison not coming

1181
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:01,160
Speaker 2: through that door. Okay, bird not coming through that door.

1182
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 2: Their aer is over. They've they've worn out their space

1183
00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,200
Speaker 2: in the headlines. Let's let's build up what we have

1184
00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,520
Speaker 2: now and what we have now, whether you're talking about

1185
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 2: Ilia and and Islam, Jack Dela Mattelande like like there's

1186
00:52:12,480 --> 00:52:15,200
Speaker 2: a new breed that's here. DDP is breaking out as

1187
00:52:15,200 --> 00:52:17,359
Speaker 2: a star. Morob although he's in his you know, mid

1188
00:52:17,400 --> 00:52:19,560
Speaker 2: to late thirties, is on top of his game. Let's

1189
00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:21,719
Speaker 2: build the next stars of the future, and let's build

1190
00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:24,640
Speaker 2: the next the roads to get to those big super fights,

1191
00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:26,920
Speaker 2: and obviously Elia versus Islam is a big one in

1192
00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:30,479
Speaker 2: that regard. Let's can we put the past away, Luke,

1193
00:52:30,719 --> 00:52:32,879
Speaker 2: because I do wish you would step back from that ledge,

1194
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:33,279
Speaker 2: my friend.

1195
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,920
Speaker 1: I wish you would step back from that ledge, my friend.

1196
00:52:37,760 --> 00:52:41,560
Speaker 1: There you go cut ties with all. Hey, Oasis came

1197
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:42,440
Speaker 1: back this weekend, did they?

1198
00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:46,319
Speaker 2: Yeah? Wild Weekend, Black Sabbath. Last show ever. Oasis makes

1199
00:52:46,360 --> 00:52:48,800
Speaker 2: a big return in people are emoting like like crazy.

1200
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,040
Speaker 1: It was a soundtrack to my to my teens. I

1201
00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:53,040
Speaker 1: don't mind little oysters. I like Oasis. All right, can

1202
00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 1: I go number two? Well, not in my seat.

1203
00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 2: This is Joseph A. Banks.

1204
00:52:57,480 --> 00:53:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah sure over there, dude, I have to go back

1205
00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,120
Speaker 1: there and then commemorate the shit with another one would

1206
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:06,239
Speaker 1: be so fucking great.

1207
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,040
Speaker 2: I tell you that story. What we used to vacation

1208
00:53:10,719 --> 00:53:13,640
Speaker 2: when I was a kid in New Hampshire like Winnipesaki,

1209
00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 2: as a lot of people did, right uh Lacon in

1210
00:53:15,360 --> 00:53:16,759
Speaker 2: New Hampshire, the whole area. My dad used to go

1211
00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,239
Speaker 2: out there for motorcycle trips every year. He always told

1212
00:53:19,320 --> 00:53:21,359
Speaker 2: us as a kid about this place, this ice cream

1213
00:53:21,360 --> 00:53:25,520
Speaker 2: place called Sawyers in which one time he absolutely tore up,

1214
00:53:25,880 --> 00:53:28,799
Speaker 2: like tore up, like he said, people were coming into

1215
00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:32,840
Speaker 2: the restroom and then going, oh my god, like he

1216
00:53:33,120 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 2: tore up one time like a Joseph A. Banks style,

1217
00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,680
Speaker 2: like quadruple flusher. And he told us for years about

1218
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:41,480
Speaker 2: the Sawyer's massacre. And he's like, one of these days

1219
00:53:41,480 --> 00:53:43,000
Speaker 2: we're gonna go back there, We're gonna go on vacation.

1220
00:53:43,040 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 2: I'm gonna show you the spot of the Sawyer's massacre,

1221
00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:47,759
Speaker 2: you know, which is just you know, growing up white

1222
00:53:47,800 --> 00:53:48,919
Speaker 2: trash and these are things you care about.

1223
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:50,800
Speaker 1: I like how he's treating it like a slave rebellion

1224
00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:51,839
Speaker 1: that belongs in the history.

1225
00:53:51,920 --> 00:53:54,760
Speaker 2: Yes, like, come see this historic location where he almost

1226
00:53:54,840 --> 00:53:59,080
Speaker 2: killed someone. Oops a right that. We show up a

1227
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:02,040
Speaker 2: couple of years later. Okay, at this Sawyer's ice cream

1228
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:06,160
Speaker 2: place outside of like Winnipesaki, and he's I'm like that,

1229
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:07,839
Speaker 2: where's it. We walk inside. He's like, hold on, I'll

1230
00:54:07,840 --> 00:54:09,799
Speaker 2: show you. It's over here. We go over to where

1231
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,160
Speaker 2: the bathroom door was. The door is still there, but

1232
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:16,080
Speaker 2: they've painted over it and they moved the bathroom and

1233
00:54:16,200 --> 00:54:19,000
Speaker 2: I'm like, wow, dad, you really did shut it down.

1234
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:20,120
Speaker 2: This is incredible.

1235
00:54:20,360 --> 00:54:24,080
Speaker 1: He forced them to relocate to remodel the entire building.

1236
00:54:24,560 --> 00:54:27,200
Speaker 1: You know what, respect to a problem?

1237
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:28,640
Speaker 2: Yeah? Please please respect.

1238
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 1: By the way, I took a dump here before the

1239
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:31,960
Speaker 1: show and I get out, I had to go wash

1240
00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:35,440
Speaker 1: my hands. There's a guy who pissed who who had

1241
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:38,600
Speaker 1: an open drink like this, like with a can and

1242
00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:41,600
Speaker 1: left it on the counter. I'm like, dude, I just

1243
00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 1: farted particles like straight up aids into the air and

1244
00:54:46,600 --> 00:54:49,359
Speaker 1: you're just drinking that in straight up form.

1245
00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,440
Speaker 2: Freedom. All right, give me your number two, please, number two.

1246
00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:58,040
Speaker 1: It's aspirational, BC. It's aspirational with the minimal time we

1247
00:54:58,200 --> 00:54:59,279
Speaker 1: have left, and I know one of.

1248
00:54:59,280 --> 00:54:59,960
Speaker 2: These guys has well.

1249
00:55:00,320 --> 00:55:01,880
Speaker 1: Both of these guys are supposed to have fights coming up,

1250
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,160
Speaker 1: but I guess we'll see. But before the end of

1251
00:55:04,200 --> 00:55:09,400
Speaker 1: the year. My aspirational whistlet wish list Gervonte Davis versus Shakirsty.

1252
00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:12,239
Speaker 1: Let's go right, how could you go wrong with this one?

1253
00:55:12,480 --> 00:55:14,880
Speaker 1: In fact, to these two guys I think are the

1254
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:18,800
Speaker 1: best in class in this general wait, vicinity, let's put it.

1255
00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:22,440
Speaker 1: We know Tank is supposed to fight Lamont Roach in August,

1256
00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:24,160
Speaker 1: but that even hasn't been formally announced. I don't know

1257
00:55:24,160 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 1: if that's gonna happen. Schikor has a fight coming up

1258
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 1: this weekend where Turkey is doing ship posting around it

1259
00:55:29,680 --> 00:55:30,440
Speaker 1: and it's very annoying.

1260
00:55:31,160 --> 00:55:31,480
Speaker 2: I don't know.

1261
00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,920
Speaker 1: But this is the one that's most interesting because Shakur,

1262
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: to me, is more skillful than Tank, but Tank is

1263
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,560
Speaker 1: I think underrated in his skill and clearly the dominant

1264
00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:44,480
Speaker 1: puncher between the two. How this one would go to

1265
00:55:44,600 --> 00:55:48,200
Speaker 1: me is very very interesting, and certainly for the American

1266
00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:51,279
Speaker 1: boxing fan and this audience, this would be a real

1267
00:55:51,560 --> 00:55:53,480
Speaker 1: like Canela Crawford. I'm not saying to be the same level,

1268
00:55:53,520 --> 00:55:56,040
Speaker 1: but like that a nice shot in the arm to

1269
00:55:56,200 --> 00:55:59,439
Speaker 1: really get it going again. Tank versus shakars on my wish.

1270
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:01,759
Speaker 2: Lie Oka love that and it ties perfectly into my

1271
00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:05,120
Speaker 2: number two, which is the rejuvenation of American boxing. I

1272
00:56:05,200 --> 00:56:07,120
Speaker 2: need a shot in the arm of American boxing and

1273
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,320
Speaker 2: that can be a few things. It can be a

1274
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:12,879
Speaker 2: soft landing for the prominent American boxing promoters that right now,

1275
00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,560
Speaker 2: as we look at the state of boxing's broadcasting landscape,

1276
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:17,960
Speaker 2: we don't know where Top Rank is going to go

1277
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,359
Speaker 2: after their ESPN deal concludes at the end of this month.

1278
00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:23,400
Speaker 2: You hear rumors about PBC's future. Luke, Obviously, for all

1279
00:56:23,480 --> 00:56:26,400
Speaker 2: of these American promoters, we'd love a soft landing for

1280
00:56:26,480 --> 00:56:28,480
Speaker 2: them and their fighters. And I think just in general,

1281
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,239
Speaker 2: look Sadi's playing a big role in this Turkey's playing

1282
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 2: a big role in boxing, and we can get on

1283
00:56:33,040 --> 00:56:34,520
Speaker 2: certain parts of it that we don't like, but it's

1284
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:36,920
Speaker 2: doing a lot of good in the same regard, but

1285
00:56:37,120 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 2: our fights like Brian Norman Universus Devin Haney better off

1286
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:41,920
Speaker 2: in riod or are they better off at the Barclay

1287
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:44,200
Speaker 2: Center right, or are they better off at Phillips Arena

1288
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 2: and State Farm Arina in Atlanta. Like my whole point is,

1289
00:56:47,880 --> 00:56:50,960
Speaker 2: there are ways we can reinvigorate American boxing again, and

1290
00:56:51,000 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 2: maybe Canelo Crawford in Las Vegas will be a big

1291
00:56:53,600 --> 00:56:57,200
Speaker 2: part of that. But I'd like to see the health restored.

1292
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,320
Speaker 2: Turkey's Ring magazine series has been on American soil almost

1293
00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:03,000
Speaker 2: exclusively except for that first one with U Bank and Ben.

1294
00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:07,120
Speaker 2: And it's not that the US needs to be the

1295
00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:10,399
Speaker 2: center of the boxing universe at all times, but when

1296
00:57:10,480 --> 00:57:13,600
Speaker 2: you do disregard it, we know about the competition peoples,

1297
00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 2: like why does the US not support their homegrown boxers

1298
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:18,480
Speaker 2: like they do in the other smaller countries because the

1299
00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:22,440
Speaker 2: competition field is too wide for people's attention and pro sports,

1300
00:57:23,000 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 2: scripted TV shows all of that. There are some things

1301
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,880
Speaker 2: that can be done subtly to rebuild the strength of

1302
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,760
Speaker 2: American boxing, and some of that, Luke is the reputation

1303
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:36,080
Speaker 2: of the core key young American boxers. It's been a

1304
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:39,160
Speaker 2: rough time for the Four Princes, the Five six Kings,

1305
00:57:39,520 --> 00:57:41,480
Speaker 2: the four Horsemen, whatever the hell you want to call them.

1306
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:43,680
Speaker 2: All of them have had their own kind of setbacks

1307
00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 2: of late to either the reputation or on their record.

1308
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:49,040
Speaker 2: I'd like to see a return for these guys in

1309
00:57:49,120 --> 00:57:50,560
Speaker 2: a big way, to get back to not just their

1310
00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:53,280
Speaker 2: winning ways, but to make big fights and particularly do

1311
00:57:53,400 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 2: them on US soil and big arenas in which the

1312
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:58,840
Speaker 2: fans can show up. I mean, it's I'm not against

1313
00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:01,640
Speaker 2: the Turkey experiments of Times Square in general. That one

1314
00:58:01,960 --> 00:58:04,080
Speaker 2: turned out to be a failure for the boxing portion

1315
00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:06,320
Speaker 2: of it. But let's get it right in the States.

1316
00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:08,440
Speaker 2: Let's make boxing big again. And if this is Turkey

1317
00:58:08,560 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 2: season to control boxing, then let's put on really big

1318
00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,600
Speaker 2: events in the US, like he's a big part of

1319
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:15,640
Speaker 2: with Canelo Crawford.

1320
00:58:15,840 --> 00:58:18,680
Speaker 1: And let's get not in Alcatraz, like just do it

1321
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 1: in a way that's accessible.

1322
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I don't even need this tennis stadium,

1323
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 2: although like it's a unique effort. He's going to give

1324
00:58:23,560 --> 00:58:25,800
Speaker 2: it a try. Let's see what happens. But let's go

1325
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 2: back to like if Ryan Garcia is fighting, let's do

1326
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:30,800
Speaker 2: it in the States in a city where you know

1327
00:58:30,880 --> 00:58:33,360
Speaker 2: people are going to turn up. Let's make American boxing healthy.

1328
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:35,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think to do that to me, it's

1329
00:58:35,520 --> 00:58:37,720
Speaker 1: like I understand that, like you know, Time Square in Alcatraz.

1330
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:40,439
Speaker 1: He sound exotic, but I don't know how well that works,

1331
00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:41,800
Speaker 1: you know. I think what's gonna work a lot better

1332
00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 1: is to your point, Barclay Center, MSG. That's like the

1333
00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:49,320
Speaker 1: places that fans know and love and are and are

1334
00:58:49,360 --> 00:58:51,120
Speaker 1: suited for this kind of a thing. You put on

1335
00:58:51,240 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: great fights, and you put him in big venues. I

1336
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 1: promise you everything is going to go healthy all the

1337
00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:59,760
Speaker 1: way downstream, all right, b see from my number one,

1338
00:59:01,720 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 1: y'all convinced me. I put my ear in the words

1339
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:07,360
Speaker 1: of good will hunting. I put my ear to the grindstone.

1340
00:59:07,840 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: I listened. I was convinced on this one.

1341
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:13,600
Speaker 2: It's not your fault, Lucas, not your fault.

1342
00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 1: In all seriousness, I would love in twenty twenty five

1343
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 1: if by January one, twenty twenty six, we can say,

1344
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:24,600
Speaker 1: you know, what was so fucking awesome about this year?

1345
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,000
Speaker 1: How about Iliot to Pori versus Islama.

1346
00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:30,800
Speaker 2: Come, come on, let's go. It doesn't have to fall

1347
00:59:30,880 --> 00:59:34,440
Speaker 2: into this calendar year. Show us that you're building the

1348
00:59:34,480 --> 00:59:34,960
Speaker 2: bridge to it.

1349
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:38,720
Speaker 1: If they could even like, you know, in December, you know,

1350
00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,240
Speaker 1: in February, whatever we're gonna do.

1351
00:59:41,360 --> 00:59:42,360
Speaker 2: Ilia and Islam.

1352
00:59:42,440 --> 00:59:45,240
Speaker 1: I would even I would even take the confirmation of

1353
00:59:45,320 --> 00:59:47,880
Speaker 1: the news in twenty twenty five as like one of

1354
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 1: my things on my wish.

1355
00:59:48,680 --> 00:59:53,360
Speaker 2: List when they make when they make Jack Della Maddelena

1356
00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:57,880
Speaker 2: defending against Islamaha Chev, whether that's October, Abu Dhabi NYC

1357
00:59:58,040 --> 01:00:00,720
Speaker 2: in November. We need Iliotopoor in the front road. Do

1358
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 2: we need coming in and facing off, even if that

1359
01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:04,880
Speaker 2: wouldn't be the next fight, just to continue to tell

1360
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:05,720
Speaker 2: that story.

1361
01:00:05,440 --> 01:00:09,600
Speaker 1: And build Listen, I don't I know Dana was upset

1362
01:00:09,640 --> 01:00:12,320
Speaker 1: with Patty being in the cage. I wasn't. I thought that,

1363
01:00:13,200 --> 01:00:15,200
Speaker 1: not that he was my first choice for the title shot,

1364
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:17,120
Speaker 1: but just that they were trying to promote that way.

1365
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:18,120
Speaker 1: I was two thumbs up.

1366
01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:19,960
Speaker 2: Give them something to talk about.

1367
01:00:19,840 --> 01:00:22,600
Speaker 1: Give them something to talk about, give them a story.

1368
01:00:22,720 --> 01:00:24,920
Speaker 2: Ie do would you have consummated with her at a

1369
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:29,520
Speaker 2: prime who by right now? Do what I was wondering,

1370
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 2: if you would give her something to talk about? Okay,

1371
01:00:31,440 --> 01:00:33,280
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. I'm not people are people

1372
01:00:33,440 --> 01:00:34,200
Speaker 2: talking about people?

1373
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not typically into banging hags, but uh,

1374
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:44,880
Speaker 1: that really derailed me. To collect I have to collect

1375
01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:46,960
Speaker 1: my brain, Okay, but to the point I'm trying to raise.

1376
01:00:46,960 --> 01:00:48,720
Speaker 1: I don't even need to sell the fight as a fight,

1377
01:00:49,360 --> 01:00:51,680
Speaker 1: but as an event. How big it could be?

1378
01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:52,520
Speaker 2: A rivalry.

1379
01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,760
Speaker 1: Let's go a rivalry and it's one where like the

1380
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:58,520
Speaker 1: steaks are obviously huge, but there's deep intrigue about the

1381
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:00,720
Speaker 1: fight itself too and how go and what it would

1382
01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 1: look like and just what it could do for MMA.

1383
01:01:03,960 --> 01:01:05,480
Speaker 1: You know, again, you can have your thoughts about the

1384
01:01:05,480 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 1: Trump thing at the UFC at the White House, that

1385
01:01:07,360 --> 01:01:10,000
Speaker 1: would be a big event, But I'm talking about you know,

1386
01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:12,400
Speaker 1: we couldn't figure out what fights would go on there

1387
01:01:12,440 --> 01:01:14,920
Speaker 1: because we're just trying to like noodle, this fight is

1388
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:20,080
Speaker 1: would be enormous in scale bc Ilia versus Islam in

1389
01:01:20,200 --> 01:01:22,800
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five, or let's say first quarter twenty twenty six.

1390
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,080
Speaker 1: How many pay per view buys does that sell?

1391
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:30,160
Speaker 2: It's it's hard to say in modern times. Yeah, especially

1392
01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:32,800
Speaker 2: two guys who are just hitting their well not I

1393
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:34,640
Speaker 2: mean Topori is just hitting the early peak of his

1394
01:01:34,840 --> 01:01:38,000
Speaker 2: true crossover stardium. Yeah, Islam has had that abbrub and

1395
01:01:38,080 --> 01:01:39,560
Speaker 2: made it his own as pomp for punk King for

1396
01:01:39,600 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 2: a while. I don't know if that's the right decider

1397
01:01:43,320 --> 01:01:45,000
Speaker 2: on how big this would be in the modern day,

1398
01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:47,120
Speaker 2: because I mean, do you hear a DC said public

1399
01:01:47,200 --> 01:01:48,560
Speaker 2: doesn't think any fight is going to get a.

1400
01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:50,520
Speaker 1: The people have to complaining about piracy since.

1401
01:01:50,360 --> 01:01:52,760
Speaker 2: The intention of pirates, so that's not necessarily the But

1402
01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:56,000
Speaker 2: my thing is like, if UFC is going to Netflix

1403
01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:58,160
Speaker 2: in some form in their next deal, which seems likely,

1404
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:03,360
Speaker 2: that is the kind of fight right off to kick

1405
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:07,080
Speaker 2: off that air so right, and you're so right, you're right,

1406
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:10,200
Speaker 2: and it's not OBC you're always rubbing pro wrestling back

1407
01:02:10,240 --> 01:02:13,480
Speaker 2: on this, guys. Promotion is pro wrestling. Fight promotion is right, Like,

1408
01:02:13,520 --> 01:02:17,000
Speaker 2: that's what it is. The pageantry, the sport, the storytelling,

1409
01:02:17,320 --> 01:02:20,600
Speaker 2: the getting people to care about two people's stories that

1410
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:23,280
Speaker 2: are coming together to consummate it and figure it out. Right,

1411
01:02:23,720 --> 01:02:25,360
Speaker 2: we don't know if we're fucking he fight, No, we're fighting.

1412
01:02:25,400 --> 01:02:28,520
Speaker 2: That's what we're doing. Get people involved in those stories, right,

1413
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:29,640
Speaker 2: that's how you sell fights.

1414
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:31,920
Speaker 1: I didn't get to the sport via pro wrestling. I

1415
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:33,360
Speaker 1: got to it through martial arts, So it took me

1416
01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:35,280
Speaker 1: a while to I was in denial about this for

1417
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:38,280
Speaker 1: a long time. MMA is real pro wrestling, That's what

1418
01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:42,280
Speaker 1: it is. It's it's obviously real, it's obviously unscripted, it's

1419
01:02:42,320 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 1: obviously a real sport, and you can only you could

1420
01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,320
Speaker 1: enjoy it however you want. But the model that it's

1421
01:02:47,400 --> 01:02:52,280
Speaker 1: based off of is pro wrestling. They just made it real.

1422
01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:55,520
Speaker 1: So why not lean into that a little bit, especially

1423
01:02:55,520 --> 01:02:57,840
Speaker 1: when you've got number basically number one, number two in

1424
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:00,880
Speaker 1: the freaking world in this particular for instance fighting.

1425
01:03:01,560 --> 01:03:03,000
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to my number. And that's a

1426
01:03:03,040 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 2: great Your list is great. It's all optimistic stuff that

1427
01:03:05,560 --> 01:03:07,800
Speaker 2: we want, that we need. I'm still yet stuck trying

1428
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:09,880
Speaker 2: to fix the issues in the sports with my three

1429
01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:12,720
Speaker 2: optimistic hopes, and my number three is the separation of

1430
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:16,840
Speaker 2: church and state in combat sports, between boxing and MMA

1431
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,160
Speaker 2: and world governments. It is out of control right now.

1432
01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:24,080
Speaker 2: And it's not just the right wing evil march of

1433
01:03:24,160 --> 01:03:25,760
Speaker 2: trump in whether you love it or you hate it,

1434
01:03:25,840 --> 01:03:28,640
Speaker 2: it's just like, let's get back to the fights. I'm

1435
01:03:28,680 --> 01:03:31,640
Speaker 2: sick of that. Every week we're talking about the effect

1436
01:03:31,760 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 2: on this certain fight. What does that have on the

1437
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:37,080
Speaker 2: sports washing of this nation? Or how close are we

1438
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:41,240
Speaker 2: to UFC Moscow with Putin and Caderov cage side Luke,

1439
01:03:41,280 --> 01:03:44,400
Speaker 2: we are at a point where it's never been. I

1440
01:03:44,480 --> 01:03:47,960
Speaker 2: want to say it's never been this colluded, you know,

1441
01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:50,360
Speaker 2: of this much of a marriage, but that's not always true,

1442
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 2: because whether it's the rumble in the jungle or the

1443
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:54,120
Speaker 2: thrill in Manila, a lot of those fights are going

1444
01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:57,480
Speaker 2: to those exotic nations for political reasons. But it's become

1445
01:03:57,960 --> 01:04:00,560
Speaker 2: a headline story in everything that we do, and maybe

1446
01:04:00,640 --> 01:04:02,800
Speaker 2: some of that is on us to not harp on

1447
01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:04,840
Speaker 2: that and push that aside and focus more on what

1448
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:07,200
Speaker 2: we're actually here for, which is the fights. The fighters

1449
01:04:07,240 --> 01:04:09,720
Speaker 2: and the storylines and all that. But I'm really sick

1450
01:04:09,760 --> 01:04:13,680
Speaker 2: of government contracts and oh, we're going to this scary

1451
01:04:13,760 --> 01:04:16,240
Speaker 2: nation just because they paid us more, and I'm what

1452
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:17,960
Speaker 2: am I asking for for that to end? Maybe some

1453
01:04:18,040 --> 01:04:21,880
Speaker 2: of it is just our focus on it, but using

1454
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 2: combat sports as a way to further political strategies, whether

1455
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:31,600
Speaker 2: it's this nation or others. I don't like the taste

1456
01:04:31,600 --> 01:04:33,360
Speaker 2: of that and my cup of tea, Okay, I'd like

1457
01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:35,000
Speaker 2: to get away from that. Is that possible?

1458
01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:36,840
Speaker 1: I share your.

1459
01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:39,360
Speaker 2: Hope.

1460
01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:42,280
Speaker 1: I share your hope. I would like to have a

1461
01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 1: show where we could just focus on that and that

1462
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:44,880
Speaker 1: be the only story one and to an extent.

1463
01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:47,640
Speaker 2: Some of that is on us for sure. Yeah, no,

1464
01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:50,720
Speaker 2: like but like some of it is. It's hard to

1465
01:04:50,800 --> 01:04:52,800
Speaker 2: look past the glare of that. Sometimes it's just.

1466
01:04:52,880 --> 01:04:55,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, the reality also is but this is this is

1467
01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,160
Speaker 1: the problem. The problem is like, once you know how

1468
01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 1: the sausage is made, it's hard to unsee it. Yes,

1469
01:04:59,720 --> 01:05:01,760
Speaker 1: And and you know, I get that there's going to

1470
01:05:01,800 --> 01:05:03,360
Speaker 1: be the vast majority of fans are just not going

1471
01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:04,960
Speaker 1: to care about that stuff. And I totally get it,

1472
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:06,520
Speaker 1: and I understand, and we don't need to bring it

1473
01:05:06,600 --> 01:05:08,440
Speaker 1: up anymore, especially for today's show, which has been a

1474
01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:10,360
Speaker 1: lot of it. But it is a real part of

1475
01:05:10,400 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 1: the fight game. And it's to your point you raise,

1476
01:05:13,680 --> 01:05:15,959
Speaker 1: go back and look at the what was the ali

1477
01:05:16,160 --> 01:05:19,160
Speaker 1: form of documentary when we were kings, yes, right, and

1478
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 1: you can see how much the government of at the

1479
01:05:22,800 --> 01:05:27,840
Speaker 1: time of Zimbabwe was playing a role here in sorry sorry,

1480
01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,320
Speaker 1: I apologize it was because it was in Conchasa, right,

1481
01:05:30,760 --> 01:05:33,360
Speaker 1: so you could see how much of a role that

1482
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:36,720
Speaker 1: was all being played. It's not new, it's absolutely not new,

1483
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:40,400
Speaker 1: but the degree to which the volume has been turned

1484
01:05:40,520 --> 01:05:43,080
Speaker 1: up more recently that is kind of new.

1485
01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's it's a lot of things lately.

1486
01:05:45,800 --> 01:05:49,040
Speaker 1: Regardless, I just want good fights that people want to

1487
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:49,760
Speaker 1: pay money to see.

1488
01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:52,040
Speaker 2: And there are people in our fan base that love us,

1489
01:05:52,080 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 2: but they're sick of that bullshit too. We can make

1490
01:05:54,080 --> 01:05:57,480
Speaker 2: a choice to push back a little bit more and

1491
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,880
Speaker 2: pull into what actually matters. Let's do that. Push pull, poll, Okay,

1492
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 2: push and pull. Those are our three wishes for the

1493
01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:07,840
Speaker 2: rest of the year. Hopefully the combat gods can deliver.

1494
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:10,480
Speaker 1: If I get any one of those three, I'd be pumped.

1495
01:06:10,520 --> 01:06:12,240
Speaker 1: If I get any one of the three eye lists

1496
01:06:12,240 --> 01:06:13,320
Speaker 1: that I'd be pumped one three.

1497
01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:16,840
Speaker 2: Let's transition to our final topic of this Monday episode,

1498
01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:18,880
Speaker 2: and that is a boxing round up. There's been a

1499
01:06:19,600 --> 01:06:22,280
Speaker 2: interesting mix of headlines of late that we love to

1500
01:06:22,320 --> 01:06:25,160
Speaker 2: get LT's reaction, and I'll chime in as well. First

1501
01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:28,480
Speaker 2: and foremost luked heavyweight former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has

1502
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:31,720
Speaker 2: done the Tyson Fury bit of late where one interview

1503
01:06:31,800 --> 01:06:34,280
Speaker 2: he says I'm retiring ever fighting again, the next interview

1504
01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:37,320
Speaker 2: he says I'll only come back for Anthony Joshua, and

1505
01:06:37,440 --> 01:06:40,720
Speaker 2: then the next interview he says, I already have a

1506
01:06:40,840 --> 01:06:44,840
Speaker 2: date next to April. I have a location Wembley Stadium

1507
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:47,920
Speaker 2: and oh, by the way, I'm fighting Alexander Usik for

1508
01:06:48,000 --> 01:06:50,680
Speaker 2: the third time. This is something that Turkey alas Sheik

1509
01:06:50,760 --> 01:06:53,920
Speaker 2: himself has tweeted out. So, Luke, it's not a surprise

1510
01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:57,480
Speaker 2: that Fury would break yet another retirement. He's an opportunist.

1511
01:06:57,560 --> 01:07:00,560
Speaker 2: He's always chasing the biggest payday and biggest fight possible.

1512
01:07:01,000 --> 01:07:03,880
Speaker 2: How surprising in your opinion is it that we've ultimately

1513
01:07:04,000 --> 01:07:07,240
Speaker 2: announced his comeback fight a year in advance and the

1514
01:07:07,360 --> 01:07:11,800
Speaker 2: opponent when that opponent has a undisputed rematch fight coming

1515
01:07:11,880 --> 01:07:14,000
Speaker 2: up on the nineteenth against Dana Dubaugh. We don't even

1516
01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:16,160
Speaker 2: know who's going to be the champion after this. This

1517
01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:17,320
Speaker 2: seems kind of weird, doesn't it.

1518
01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:19,640
Speaker 1: I don't get it at all. Are we even sure

1519
01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:21,800
Speaker 1: that it's real? I mean, I know he said it's real.

1520
01:07:22,080 --> 01:07:23,800
Speaker 2: Do we know it's real? We have some comments from

1521
01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:25,840
Speaker 2: Turkey that seem to back up that it is real. Now.

1522
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,919
Speaker 2: I do know that Turkey and Tyson Fury did meet,

1523
01:07:28,400 --> 01:07:31,280
Speaker 2: and here is a Ring Magazine tweet that said Tyson

1524
01:07:31,320 --> 01:07:32,919
Speaker 2: Fury is said to come out of retirement and return

1525
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:36,480
Speaker 2: to boxing in twenty twenty six. Turkey Aloshkaz has confirmed

1526
01:07:36,520 --> 01:07:38,200
Speaker 2: in the quote from Turkey as I talked with him

1527
01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:40,840
Speaker 2: and I have his word to have him in Riad

1528
01:07:41,000 --> 01:07:44,640
Speaker 2: says in twenty twenty six, we have a rabbit to

1529
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:48,360
Speaker 2: haunt end quote. We he's always partnered with Tyson. It

1530
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,480
Speaker 2: seems like right like there's a certain fighter like you know,

1531
01:07:50,760 --> 01:07:53,520
Speaker 2: Yeat Berlin goat telling Shiraz like yours.

1532
01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:55,480
Speaker 1: Like I get that you work with the guy, but

1533
01:07:55,640 --> 01:07:56,600
Speaker 1: you're also.

1534
01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,720
Speaker 2: Hunting the guy. Canello telling Crawford your Turkey's boy. But

1535
01:07:59,840 --> 01:08:04,160
Speaker 2: that whole rabbit to hunt things seems like it is Usik.

1536
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:06,800
Speaker 2: And now Fury put out on his socials that it's

1537
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:09,000
Speaker 2: going to be Usik. You have Usik's team kind of

1538
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:11,960
Speaker 2: half cryptically confirming it. I've never seen something like this

1539
01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 2: where you kind of call your shot. Isn't he gonna

1540
01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:15,439
Speaker 2: fight Anthony Joshua eventually for big money?

1541
01:08:15,520 --> 01:08:17,200
Speaker 1: Like here's the thing about test I Fury coming back.

1542
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:21,320
Speaker 1: I don't really need it, But if he'll fight Anthony Joshua,

1543
01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:23,519
Speaker 1: I'd be cool. I'd be I'd be pumped to see that.

1544
01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:24,640
Speaker 2: Actually, but a.

1545
01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:28,040
Speaker 1: Third fight with Usik, I'm not sure I get the point.

1546
01:08:28,120 --> 01:08:30,360
Speaker 2: The soond one went didn't go any better for him.

1547
01:08:30,360 --> 01:08:33,080
Speaker 2: In fact, it went a little bit worse. They were close, competitive,

1548
01:08:33,320 --> 01:08:38,080
Speaker 2: great fights. Both were won fairly cleanly and clearly by Usik.

1549
01:08:38,120 --> 01:08:41,639
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I want to be clear, Usik knocked

1550
01:08:41,720 --> 01:08:43,760
Speaker 1: him down well more than that, Like if you just

1551
01:08:43,880 --> 01:08:47,719
Speaker 1: watched the rounds Usik clearly figures him out. Yeah, each fight,

1552
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:51,360
Speaker 1: why would that change? I don't, I don't quite.

1553
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:52,280
Speaker 2: I don't, I don't.

1554
01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:53,360
Speaker 1: I guess I just don't really get it.

1555
01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:56,800
Speaker 2: I mean something, But what would be an ideal build

1556
01:08:56,880 --> 01:08:59,519
Speaker 2: to that? In my opinion, we're gonna get Usik du

1557
01:09:00,080 --> 01:09:01,840
Speaker 2: two and for all you know, if du Wall wins,

1558
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:03,760
Speaker 2: they'll probably go into a trilogy in that one. Yeah,

1559
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,360
Speaker 2: you do, Fury versus Joshua at the end of this year,

1560
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:08,280
Speaker 2: that's the one I care about. And then the winner

1561
01:09:08,360 --> 01:09:10,040
Speaker 2: of that this is the winner of the other for

1562
01:09:10,120 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 2: the title. And if that's Fury, if he beats Joshua

1563
01:09:12,280 --> 01:09:13,960
Speaker 2: Wich A lot of us think he would, then you

1564
01:09:14,120 --> 01:09:16,080
Speaker 2: get one more chance back at the undisputed crown in

1565
01:09:16,160 --> 01:09:18,280
Speaker 2: that trilogy with Usik. I wouldn't hate it if you

1566
01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:20,320
Speaker 2: go that way, but to just call your shot with

1567
01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:23,560
Speaker 2: date stadium an opponent and we don't even know the situations.

1568
01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:28,160
Speaker 2: It's interesting. What else is interesting is the build to

1569
01:09:28,240 --> 01:09:33,479
Speaker 2: this trilogy versus Dmitri Beval in Artur better BV. After

1570
01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:37,160
Speaker 2: two incredibly close and competitive and classic title fights for

1571
01:09:37,200 --> 01:09:40,080
Speaker 2: the undisputed light heavyweight Championship, we thought we were getting

1572
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:42,320
Speaker 2: this trilogy at the end of this year, so did

1573
01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:44,880
Speaker 2: at least one of the two fighters. Then there was

1574
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:47,400
Speaker 2: some tweets that came out that seemed to change that,

1575
01:09:47,840 --> 01:09:50,760
Speaker 2: in which that there was a tweet registering from the

1576
01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:54,120
Speaker 2: Ring magazine account and from Mike Coppinger that ultimately said

1577
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:57,200
Speaker 2: talks of the trilogy have been put off until next

1578
01:09:57,320 --> 01:10:01,040
Speaker 2: year because both fighters would prefer trilogy to take place

1579
01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:04,439
Speaker 2: in Russia. We all accepted that as interesting, but okay,

1580
01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:05,679
Speaker 2: and if you think about.

1581
01:10:05,439 --> 01:10:06,960
Speaker 1: It, actually, actually I don't mind that at all.

1582
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:09,080
Speaker 2: That's I'm saying, two Russian fighters, this is such a

1583
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:11,559
Speaker 2: big deal for their careers and their legacies and their country.

1584
01:10:11,840 --> 01:10:14,919
Speaker 2: I'm all for that. But then you get after Betterbie

1585
01:10:14,960 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 2: of coming out in ig and almost refuting it, in

1586
01:10:18,080 --> 01:10:20,479
Speaker 2: which he said I received hundreds of questions about the

1587
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,439
Speaker 2: third fight. That's why I decided to answer here. As

1588
01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:26,120
Speaker 2: you know, the first fight for the Absolute Champion title

1589
01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,680
Speaker 2: took place in October last year. After five years of

1590
01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:32,880
Speaker 2: attempts to unify belts, it was still successful. The day

1591
01:10:33,040 --> 01:10:35,800
Speaker 2: after the first fight, we agreed on a rematch, which

1592
01:10:35,920 --> 01:10:38,760
Speaker 2: was to take place within four months, despite the fact

1593
01:10:39,000 --> 01:10:42,080
Speaker 2: that I was after that it was after the operation,

1594
01:10:42,280 --> 01:10:45,640
Speaker 2: and my coach and doctor were categorically against such an

1595
01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:49,280
Speaker 2: early rematch. After the second fight, I immediately showed interest

1596
01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,439
Speaker 2: in an early third fight, and at first there were

1597
01:10:52,560 --> 01:10:55,040
Speaker 2: rumors about the fight in August, but my opponent said

1598
01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,000
Speaker 2: in an interview that he wanted to hold it into

1599
01:10:58,120 --> 01:11:00,240
Speaker 2: late autumn, then at the end of the year year

1600
01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:03,200
Speaker 2: and now it is completely unknown when And here's the

1601
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:06,680
Speaker 2: key quote, how old do I have to be so

1602
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:09,439
Speaker 2: that we can fight for the third time? Luke, This

1603
01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:11,800
Speaker 2: does not sound like a man who is looking to

1604
01:11:11,880 --> 01:11:14,320
Speaker 2: push this off until next year and fight him in Russia.

1605
01:11:14,600 --> 01:11:16,479
Speaker 2: This seems like a man who wants to close the

1606
01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:19,880
Speaker 2: book on this rivalry. Yes, he lost the rematch to

1607
01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:23,600
Speaker 2: Bevall very close, just like the first fight. Is this

1608
01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:26,320
Speaker 2: a case of Turkey and Coppat You're getting exposed for

1609
01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 2: propaganda that might not be truthful.

1610
01:11:28,240 --> 01:11:29,040
Speaker 1: In this case, I don't.

1611
01:11:29,080 --> 01:11:30,519
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know what to make of this.

1612
01:11:30,600 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 1: I guess I don't really understand what's happening here. This

1613
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:34,920
Speaker 1: is a better question for you to answer. Is that

1614
01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:35,640
Speaker 1: what you think that?

1615
01:11:35,960 --> 01:11:38,040
Speaker 2: It feels like that it feels like they were almost

1616
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:39,920
Speaker 2: speaking for better bev and then better beev was like,

1617
01:11:39,960 --> 01:11:41,840
Speaker 2: hold on, guys, let me speak for myself on this

1618
01:11:41,920 --> 01:11:45,880
Speaker 2: ig post. He's eventually he's basically criticizing Bevall for avoiding him,

1619
01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:47,680
Speaker 2: not wanting to go right back into a third fight

1620
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:48,920
Speaker 2: with him. Isn't there something to that?

1621
01:11:48,960 --> 01:11:52,200
Speaker 1: Because they were gonna make the Benavidez fight when the

1622
01:11:52,640 --> 01:11:53,040
Speaker 1: swooped in.

1623
01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:57,360
Speaker 2: Exactly so benevie. The report was that Samson lookedwitz PBC,

1624
01:11:57,600 --> 01:11:59,840
Speaker 2: that they offered a deal for Bevall to fight Better

1625
01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:02,760
Speaker 2: with the PBC, you know, promoting and producing it, and

1626
01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:05,280
Speaker 2: that the offer was eight million dollars, of which it

1627
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:08,360
Speaker 2: felt like he turned down to do the trilogy. Now

1628
01:12:08,439 --> 01:12:10,960
Speaker 2: you have David Benaviez coming out and signing with Turkey

1629
01:12:11,000 --> 01:12:13,800
Speaker 2: Alaschik to fight Anthony Yard later this year. It's on

1630
01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:16,439
Speaker 2: a supercard that Turkey's trying to build up for November.

1631
01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:19,360
Speaker 2: Do we have that tweet with the show YEP, these

1632
01:12:19,400 --> 01:12:21,519
Speaker 2: are the fights that Turkey is talking about, and guys,

1633
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:22,720
Speaker 2: this would be a super card.

1634
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:23,719
Speaker 1: I mean that would be insane.

1635
01:12:23,800 --> 01:12:26,599
Speaker 2: Jeron Bootsenz versus Virgil Ortiz Junior at one fifty four,

1636
01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:29,519
Speaker 2: David Benavie is Anthony Yard, which is agreed to, Devin

1637
01:12:29,560 --> 01:12:32,120
Speaker 2: Hainey Brian Norman Junior for the walterweight title agreed to.

1638
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:34,599
Speaker 2: Then the other ones would be Williams of Paedo versus

1639
01:12:34,680 --> 01:12:39,040
Speaker 2: Andy Cruz, Christian Mobilly, Lester Martinez, Martin Bucoli, Moses Etama.

1640
01:12:40,560 --> 01:12:42,639
Speaker 2: Five really good fights right there, four and a half,

1641
01:12:42,720 --> 01:12:46,360
Speaker 2: five really good fights in a really loaded card. I've

1642
01:12:46,400 --> 01:12:49,200
Speaker 2: seen interviews with Benavitez kind of saying that, like, it

1643
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:51,639
Speaker 2: looks like PBC could be doing more work with Turkey

1644
01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:52,920
Speaker 2: in the future. I don't know if that's out of

1645
01:12:52,960 --> 01:12:55,080
Speaker 2: a financial need or what have you there, but the

1646
01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:57,360
Speaker 2: critics are basically saying, if you're gonna go this strout

1647
01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:58,920
Speaker 2: and you're not gonna do the trilogy for next year,

1648
01:12:59,240 --> 01:13:02,360
Speaker 2: why not just do Benavite's beev All this fall instead

1649
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:04,400
Speaker 2: of the Yard fight. Would that make more sense in

1650
01:13:04,439 --> 01:13:04,760
Speaker 2: your eyes?

1651
01:13:04,840 --> 01:13:06,679
Speaker 1: I would rather see that, not because I didn't enjoy

1652
01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:09,320
Speaker 1: the first two better be Bivol fights, but I've seen

1653
01:13:09,479 --> 01:13:11,200
Speaker 1: too better Bee vivi All fights, and I don't want

1654
01:13:11,200 --> 01:13:14,000
Speaker 1: to lose the opportunity for David Benavidez to get in there,

1655
01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:16,400
Speaker 1: who has sparred both and apparently again these are stories

1656
01:13:16,400 --> 01:13:17,840
Speaker 1: from the gym has had success that.

1657
01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:19,080
Speaker 2: He knocked down Bevall on a jet.

1658
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, it kind of gave him a little bit of

1659
01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:21,640
Speaker 1: the business. I don't know how much I believe that,

1660
01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,519
Speaker 1: but it doesn't matter. I would want to see the fight.

1661
01:13:23,920 --> 01:13:26,160
Speaker 2: There are boxing fans that believe bev All Benavidez is

1662
01:13:26,200 --> 01:13:27,840
Speaker 2: the best fight you can make in the sport right now.

1663
01:13:30,120 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's certainly on the list. But

1664
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:32,960
Speaker 1: I've seen it twice.

1665
01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:37,160
Speaker 2: You know. Here's the question, does bev does Benavidez going

1666
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:39,519
Speaker 2: back to Saudi, meaning that he went out there for

1667
01:13:39,640 --> 01:13:42,160
Speaker 2: a fight that he wasn't fighting, but he was like

1668
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:44,519
Speaker 2: a recruitment trip, and the report that came back was

1669
01:13:44,560 --> 01:13:46,760
Speaker 2: that it didn't go well. He left early. Well, now,

1670
01:13:46,840 --> 01:13:49,160
Speaker 2: whether it's a financial need or this is just the

1671
01:13:49,200 --> 01:13:51,600
Speaker 2: direction he wants to go, He's aligning with Turkey for

1672
01:13:51,680 --> 01:13:54,880
Speaker 2: this next fight. Is this a long play from Turkey

1673
01:13:55,160 --> 01:13:57,240
Speaker 2: to get Canelo and Benavidez in there, which, if you

1674
01:13:57,400 --> 01:14:00,320
Speaker 2: notice at the press conferences or in the video, Turkey

1675
01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:02,680
Speaker 2: will say that at the end, all we have to

1676
01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:05,040
Speaker 2: do is convince Canelo to fight Benavidez. Do you think

1677
01:14:05,600 --> 01:14:09,400
Speaker 2: this is the beginning of consolidating those four names Bevall

1678
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:12,880
Speaker 2: better via Canelo and Benavidez and trying to get not

1679
01:14:13,080 --> 01:14:16,160
Speaker 2: just a potential Bevall, not just a potential Benavidez versus

1680
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:19,400
Speaker 2: the winner of that trilogy fight or before that trilogy

1681
01:14:19,400 --> 01:14:23,240
Speaker 2: even happens, but a long play to get Canelo happy

1682
01:14:23,280 --> 01:14:25,920
Speaker 2: with the Crawford fight a ton of money Netflix, and

1683
01:14:26,040 --> 01:14:29,960
Speaker 2: then you slide in benevide You you're trying to find optimism.

1684
01:14:30,400 --> 01:14:32,360
Speaker 1: Well, I have optimism because I think it'll get good fights.

1685
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:34,320
Speaker 1: You're just not gonna get Canelo to be in any

1686
01:14:34,360 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 1: of the good fights. That's what you don't believe.

1687
01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:36,839
Speaker 2: Canelo.

1688
01:14:37,720 --> 01:14:40,080
Speaker 1: There's no world where he fights David Benavidez.

1689
01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:40,400
Speaker 2: There is.

1690
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:41,799
Speaker 1: There's no fucking retorts.

1691
01:14:41,960 --> 01:14:45,320
Speaker 2: He's getting two hundred and fifty million for the Crawford fight, which,

1692
01:14:45,400 --> 01:14:49,120
Speaker 2: if true, is is mind blowing. Yeah, Floyd got a

1693
01:14:49,160 --> 01:14:51,519
Speaker 2: guaranteed one hundred to fight Manny, and the report was

1694
01:14:51,560 --> 01:14:54,280
Speaker 2: that Floyd ultimately made three hundred million after all the

1695
01:14:54,360 --> 01:14:56,640
Speaker 2: receipts and all that. This is up there, this is

1696
01:14:56,760 --> 01:15:00,320
Speaker 2: this is right there, ridiculously up there. I don't know, Oh, man,

1697
01:15:00,600 --> 01:15:03,000
Speaker 2: what if? What if Canelo has that opportunity to make like.

1698
01:15:03,160 --> 01:15:06,639
Speaker 1: No, no, it's not it's dead. It will never happen.

1699
01:15:06,680 --> 01:15:08,360
Speaker 1: He's not fighting Benavide's.

1700
01:15:08,400 --> 01:15:12,760
Speaker 2: Okay, okay. Also related to the somewhat related to this.

1701
01:15:13,000 --> 01:15:14,880
Speaker 1: By the way, do you like the Benavide'z Yard fight?

1702
01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:15,360
Speaker 1: I don't.

1703
01:15:15,439 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 2: I don't hate it. An action tell you it's an

1704
01:15:16,960 --> 01:15:17,360
Speaker 2: action fight.

1705
01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:19,320
Speaker 1: First of all, the difference in physiques is going to

1706
01:15:19,360 --> 01:15:21,600
Speaker 1: be insane, especially when Benavidez has beating him up. But

1707
01:15:23,000 --> 01:15:24,639
Speaker 1: Anthony Yard doesn't mind some smoke.

1708
01:15:24,840 --> 01:15:27,360
Speaker 2: No, and he takes a smoke. He loses to the

1709
01:15:27,360 --> 01:15:29,519
Speaker 2: big names historically, but he takes him on and he goes.

1710
01:15:29,680 --> 01:15:32,080
Speaker 1: He's not afraid of a challenge. I respect that about him.

1711
01:15:32,080 --> 01:15:33,800
Speaker 2: I mean, there are a lot of fun fights in

1712
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:35,920
Speaker 2: Benavidez around the top end of this division here at

1713
01:15:36,000 --> 01:15:38,120
Speaker 2: light heavyweight. So he made the right move if Canelo

1714
01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:40,559
Speaker 2: wasn't gonna fight him, to say I'm not gonna wait around.

1715
01:15:40,560 --> 01:15:41,519
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go up and chat.

1716
01:15:41,560 --> 01:15:41,640
Speaker 3: You know.

1717
01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:43,800
Speaker 2: It beats morel at one seventy five. Now we're talking

1718
01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:45,920
Speaker 2: about we thought he might fight Callum Smith. Instead it's

1719
01:15:45,920 --> 01:15:48,600
Speaker 2: going to be Anthony Yard. Maybe this builds toward a

1720
01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:50,559
Speaker 2: Bevall showdown, which would be one of the best fights

1721
01:15:50,560 --> 01:15:52,800
Speaker 2: in the sport. So I'm trying to embrace that in

1722
01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:55,160
Speaker 2: what the Turkey element can do for this. There's just

1723
01:15:55,200 --> 01:15:58,439
Speaker 2: still some unknowns in on the level of what we're

1724
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:03,360
Speaker 2: talking about with Ring Magazine account Top Turkey like being

1725
01:16:03,920 --> 01:16:06,320
Speaker 2: a news provider, but it's always under the guise of

1726
01:16:07,600 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 2: it's being ordered from their reelection. Let me let what

1727
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:12,360
Speaker 2: we're going to the next one. Jake Paul was ranked

1728
01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:14,320
Speaker 2: by the WBA. Of course, that cruise weight we talked

1729
01:16:14,360 --> 01:16:16,840
Speaker 2: about that last week number We got a ranking. Now

1730
01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,200
Speaker 2: this tweet comes out from the Ring Magazine account that says,

1731
01:16:19,360 --> 01:16:23,040
Speaker 2: due to heavy criticism and outrage from other ranked contenders,

1732
01:16:23,360 --> 01:16:26,600
Speaker 2: the WBA will review Jake Paul's cruiserweight ranking at their

1733
01:16:26,680 --> 01:16:30,000
Speaker 2: upcoming European Convention in Madrid, which takes place July fifteenth

1734
01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:33,160
Speaker 2: through eighteenth. The WBA had rated him number fourteen after

1735
01:16:33,240 --> 01:16:36,320
Speaker 2: the Chavez fight, but Chavez wasn't ranked at cruiserweight and

1736
01:16:36,400 --> 01:16:38,479
Speaker 2: his last notable win had come all the way back

1737
01:16:38,479 --> 01:16:41,599
Speaker 2: in twenty twelve at middleweight. True fact, Paul has never

1738
01:16:41,680 --> 01:16:44,880
Speaker 2: defeated a rank boxer, unless you call his quote fight

1739
01:16:45,439 --> 01:16:47,800
Speaker 2: with God. So they are this is a continuation of

1740
01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:51,120
Speaker 2: Ring just dropping doogies on Jake publicly. Is this even

1741
01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,479
Speaker 2: a real story or is this just them putting their

1742
01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:55,320
Speaker 2: finger in the wound and spinning it around again.

1743
01:16:55,320 --> 01:16:57,599
Speaker 1: We talked about this last week. You can be upset

1744
01:16:57,680 --> 01:17:00,880
Speaker 1: that Paul got ranked, but he's also taking advantage or

1745
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 1: you know whatever, he's benefiting from a bullshit ass corrupt

1746
01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,680
Speaker 1: system that existed long before he ever got there.

1747
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:09,720
Speaker 2: Here in the whispers and saying well hold on, maybe maybe, But.

1748
01:17:09,720 --> 01:17:11,320
Speaker 1: I just gotta say, the Ring magazine at this point,

1749
01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:12,800
Speaker 1: like they're giving up all pretensive.

1750
01:17:13,080 --> 01:17:15,680
Speaker 2: I mean, all media has biased and we know that too.

1751
01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:16,200
Speaker 2: We have bias.

1752
01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:18,640
Speaker 1: Everyone's got biases, like that's just reality. But the but

1753
01:17:18,720 --> 01:17:20,280
Speaker 1: the rule for me is you got to be upfront

1754
01:17:20,320 --> 01:17:22,160
Speaker 1: with him and tell them, hey, these are our biases.

1755
01:17:22,240 --> 01:17:25,120
Speaker 1: I'm I'm a pro this, I'm anti that, whatever, whatever

1756
01:17:25,240 --> 01:17:28,040
Speaker 1: your thing, but just getting out there and going after

1757
01:17:28,200 --> 01:17:30,320
Speaker 1: Jake Paul and putting his thing in fight. I hated

1758
01:17:30,360 --> 01:17:31,720
Speaker 1: the fight as much as you guys did. But that's

1759
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:34,000
Speaker 1: the appropriate thing to call it, just from a you know,

1760
01:17:34,080 --> 01:17:39,679
Speaker 1: a technical perspective. Dude, that is a pr arm of Turkey.

1761
01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:41,960
Speaker 1: That's what the ring magazine is. I'm not saying they

1762
01:17:42,000 --> 01:17:43,920
Speaker 1: don't do good some good work. They do some good work,

1763
01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:46,800
Speaker 1: but they are at heart that is what he bought

1764
01:17:46,880 --> 01:17:47,960
Speaker 1: a pr arm to do.

1765
01:17:48,160 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 2: His information interests. That's playing a big role there.

1766
01:17:51,800 --> 01:17:52,719
Speaker 1: That's just the reality.

1767
01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:55,760
Speaker 2: So it'd be uh, I hate it because I feel

1768
01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:58,280
Speaker 2: like we've been in this weird boxing state where yes,

1769
01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:00,560
Speaker 2: Turkey's here and he's growing, he's building big fights, but

1770
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,479
Speaker 2: everyone else has sort of been in a couple of

1771
01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:04,799
Speaker 2: years of like where are they going next? It started

1772
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,400
Speaker 2: with the end of Showtime in my opinion, at the

1773
01:18:07,520 --> 01:18:09,640
Speaker 2: end of twenty three, and we're still there in the

1774
01:18:09,720 --> 01:18:11,240
Speaker 2: midst of twenty five. We still don't know what the

1775
01:18:11,280 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 2: rest of this year is going to be for everyone else.

1776
01:18:13,640 --> 01:18:16,360
Speaker 2: Beneville is going from you know, staying with PBC, but

1777
01:18:16,520 --> 01:18:18,720
Speaker 2: going to Turkey is interesting because he's one of their

1778
01:18:19,160 --> 01:18:21,519
Speaker 2: certain proven you know, pay per view draws. What does

1779
01:18:21,600 --> 01:18:24,080
Speaker 2: this mean for PBC's future. We'll have to wait and see, dude,

1780
01:18:24,439 --> 01:18:27,679
Speaker 2: interesting stuff right there. All right, those are our five topics,

1781
01:18:27,720 --> 01:18:29,439
Speaker 2: and that would be a good time to talk about

1782
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:34,240
Speaker 2: the summer and the need to prepare yourself for the heat. Look,

1783
01:18:34,320 --> 01:18:36,320
Speaker 2: we're all grown men watching this, right. I don't think

1784
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:38,880
Speaker 2: there's any woman watching this. Maybe there's a few. But

1785
01:18:39,000 --> 01:18:41,160
Speaker 2: when it's summertime, you got to take care of yourself.

1786
01:18:41,200 --> 01:18:43,840
Speaker 2: You've got to protect yourself from that inevitable sweat, whether

1787
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:46,000
Speaker 2: you're working in the yard or out with the lady

1788
01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:48,000
Speaker 2: on a nice date. If there's one thing I'm not

1789
01:18:48,160 --> 01:18:51,160
Speaker 2: messing around with this summer, it's my deodorant. How about

1790
01:18:51,439 --> 01:18:56,040
Speaker 2: Mando Deodorant plus sweat Control. It's built for this season. Okay,

1791
01:18:56,160 --> 01:18:59,960

1792
01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:04,360

1793
01:19:04,520 --> 01:19:08,200
Speaker 2: isn't your typical drug store stick. This is a high

1794
01:19:08,360 --> 01:19:12,160
Speaker 2: performance pit shield. You know what I'm talking about. I'm

1799
01:19:25,680 --> 01:19:28,200
Speaker 2: use a little bit of Mando. I know I have.

1800

Speaker 1: we like to go do that. Whatever you need to do. However,

1806
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:48,960
Speaker 1: you need to be prepared the suite of products because

1807
01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:52,280
Speaker 1: it's not just one, it's several of them that Mando offers.

Speaker 2: I guarantee is going to fit your needs.

1809
01:19:54,280 --> 01:19:57,840
Speaker 1: There's nothing that you need protection for related to these

1810
01:19:57,920 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 1: kinds of things that Mando can't get right for you.

1811
01:20:00,360 --> 01:20:00,559
Speaker 2: BC.

1812
01:20:00,840 --> 01:20:02,439
Speaker 1: That's the fact that I know for sure.

1813
01:20:02,680 --> 01:20:05,519
Speaker 2: I mean I love it. I mean certainly the Mando

1814
01:20:05,600 --> 01:20:08,879
Speaker 2: Deodorant plus Sweat Control stick is probably the most powerful.

1815
01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:10,479
Speaker 2: But I like to mix it up sometimes I like

1816
01:20:10,520 --> 01:20:13,519
Speaker 2: that spray just to have that almost cologne feel. Sometimes

1817
01:20:13,560 --> 01:20:16,320
Speaker 2: I go to that crub that cream deodorant lotion on

1818
01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:17,880
Speaker 2: you when you know it's going to be a rough

1819
01:20:17,920 --> 01:20:18,960
Speaker 2: day and you're going to be out there in the

1820
01:20:19,080 --> 01:20:20,800
Speaker 2: midst of getting that sweat.

1821

1849
01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:40,040
Speaker 2: had our say on our topics. Of note, we did

01:21:54,400 --> 01:21:57,120
Speaker 1: You know what, brought back by popular demand. We love

1855
01:21:57,280 --> 01:21:59,559
Speaker 1: They said, we wanted it back. We brought it back.

Speaker 2: Are you going to do? We give you what you want.

1857
01:22:01,479 --> 01:22:04,320
Speaker 2: Let's hear from our first donk. This one's from Matt

1858
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:05,920
Speaker 2: Flannels And just by the way, this guy is a

1859
01:22:06,040 --> 01:22:07,400
Speaker 2: jiu jitsu practitioner.

1860
01:22:07,600 --> 01:22:10,000
Speaker 1: My fucking eyesight is fading by the day, me too.

1861
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 2: Will the UFC event at the White House actually have

1862
01:22:13,720 --> 01:22:16,080
Speaker 2: good fights? Or is it just going to be more

1863
01:22:16,120 --> 01:22:17,840
Speaker 2: about Dana White and Trump being close.

1864
01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:19,760
Speaker 1: I'll say this, I think they're gonna try.

1865
01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:21,439
Speaker 2: All the pay per views are about Dana Whit and

1866
01:22:21,479 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 2: Trump being close. So that's all. But if you're gonna

1867
01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:23,760
Speaker 2: do it the.

1868
01:22:23,720 --> 01:22:26,000
Speaker 1: White House thing to answer in good faith, I do

1869
01:22:26,160 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 1: think they're if it goes forward, I don't see them

1870
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:30,160
Speaker 1: half assing it.

1871
01:22:30,439 --> 01:22:32,600
Speaker 2: Yes, there's just no way they'll do that. Just the

1872
01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:33,080
Speaker 2: full ass.

1873
01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:37,400
Speaker 1: Give us, give us the whole ass. No, but I'm

1874
01:22:37,400 --> 01:22:39,840
Speaker 1: being serious. I think if they again we want to

1875
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:42,680
Speaker 1: be caveating this, that this is a year away. Who

1876
01:22:42,760 --> 01:22:44,280
Speaker 1: knows what can happen between now and then. You may

1877
01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:46,679
Speaker 1: not get it at all, but and harve you feel

1878
01:22:46,680 --> 01:22:48,000
Speaker 1: about its horve you feel about it, but to the

1879
01:22:48,040 --> 01:22:50,560
Speaker 1: extent that you get it. We talked about some of

1880
01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:53,120
Speaker 1: the matchmaking difficulties, like how exactly should you do it?

1881
01:22:53,720 --> 01:22:56,840
Speaker 1: But I don't think they're gonna put like a apex

1882
01:22:57,600 --> 01:23:00,559
Speaker 1: esque level event there. They're gonna go ball out if

1883
01:23:00,600 --> 01:23:01,040
Speaker 1: it goes fall.

1884
01:23:01,200 --> 01:23:03,679
Speaker 2: Yeah. When Mark Shapiro said, you know, people watching at home,

1885
01:23:03,880 --> 01:23:06,800
Speaker 2: they don't know if it's the apex Or of the

1886
01:23:06,840 --> 01:23:09,320
Speaker 2: White House, Yes, or is this the apex, so you

1887
01:23:09,439 --> 01:23:13,080
Speaker 2: can here's the thing that you have see, no crappy heavyweights,

1888
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:15,720
Speaker 2: No Tafa brothers. Let's go, let's bring I mean, I

1889
01:23:15,760 --> 01:23:18,320
Speaker 2: think you could do a little tour Tafa. We'll take

1890
01:23:18,360 --> 01:23:18,599
Speaker 2: the tour.

1891
01:23:18,600 --> 01:23:21,400
Speaker 3: By the way, Junior Tafa, I saw this weekend and

1892
01:23:21,439 --> 01:23:22,600
Speaker 3: he moved to light heavyweights.

1893
01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:23,799
Speaker 1: Yeah see the pictures.

1894
01:23:23,960 --> 01:23:24,559
Speaker 2: Yeah he looks good.

1895
01:23:24,600 --> 01:23:26,960
Speaker 1: It's like it's a pretty good. He's got got a

1896
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:31,200
Speaker 1: little ab, got some apps as yeah, chops.

1897
01:23:30,920 --> 01:23:33,280
Speaker 2: To thank you, flannels and JITs for your contribution.

1898
01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:34,760
Speaker 1: I think that they'll try. I think that they will

1899
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:35,679
Speaker 1: make an effort for sure.

1900
01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:37,720
Speaker 2: All right, maybe they'll be an American champion on the

1901
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:39,880
Speaker 2: male side. Maybe it's Sean Brady that'll be the champ.

1902
01:23:41,120 --> 01:23:41,840
Speaker 1: One never knows.

1903
01:23:42,280 --> 01:23:44,280
Speaker 2: Well what they should have a tattoo booth on the

1904
01:23:44,360 --> 01:23:46,000
Speaker 2: lawn as well. Okay, well then I would have to

1905
01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:47,439
Speaker 2: go all right, you know what I mean. Let's see

1906
01:23:47,479 --> 01:23:50,880
Speaker 2: the next question from you don't know Tyler, right, and

1907
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:53,439
Speaker 2: I don't plan on it. How does the twenty nineteen

1908
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:56,960
Speaker 2: slash twenty twenty version of Dustin Puabi wad do against

1909
01:23:57,200 --> 01:24:00,360
Speaker 2: this version of Ilia wish we could have gotten fight.

1910
01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:03,360
Speaker 2: I think he'd do better than Gaichee will fare. Now

1911
01:24:03,400 --> 01:24:06,679
Speaker 2: the nineteen to twenty version is pre Connor, right, let's

1912
01:24:06,880 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 2: Connor two and three.

1913
01:24:07,640 --> 01:24:09,479
Speaker 1: Yeah, let's call it the guy. I mean, I think

1914
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: the Hooker fight was a little bit after twenty twenty,

1915
01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:13,839
Speaker 1: but let me, let me, let me, but it's basically

1916
01:24:13,920 --> 01:24:16,360
Speaker 1: like the Dan Hooker version, or like the Pori.

1917
01:24:16,280 --> 01:24:19,200
Speaker 2: Version, is still the super. So after he got tapped by.

1918
01:24:19,680 --> 01:24:22,720
Speaker 1: By Habibe, he fought Connor the second or third time

1919
01:24:22,720 --> 01:24:24,320
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, because I remember that because my

1920
01:24:24,360 --> 01:24:25,880
Speaker 1: cat died and I had to fly out to Vegas

1921
01:24:25,920 --> 01:24:26,840
Speaker 1: to go cover that. Y.

1922
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:30,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, Mocho died, all right, here we go. So

1923
01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:35,479
Speaker 2: in June of twenty twenty, he won the five round

1924
01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:38,320
Speaker 2: decision in hook against Dan Hooker in his first fight

1925
01:24:38,400 --> 01:24:39,439
Speaker 2: since losing the title.

1926
01:24:39,640 --> 01:24:41,160
Speaker 1: The best fights in AX history, for sure.

1927
01:24:41,200 --> 01:24:43,879
Speaker 2: Then in January of twenty one he had the rematch

1928
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:46,120
Speaker 2: with Connor, and then, of course July of that year,

1929
01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:48,960
Speaker 2: Connor's leg injured. So we're talking still about a super

1930
01:24:49,040 --> 01:24:52,960
Speaker 2: elite early to mid thirties. How does that that guy

1931
01:24:53,240 --> 01:24:54,960
Speaker 2: that that guy, by the way, an older version of

1932
01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:56,720
Speaker 2: that guy gave Islam a hard time. We got to

1933
01:24:56,720 --> 01:24:57,240
Speaker 2: remember that too.

1934
01:24:57,360 --> 01:25:00,000
Speaker 1: True, although he and also did you see Portia admitted

1935
01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:02,480
Speaker 1: he might have had broken ribs during that fighter.

1936
01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:04,920
Speaker 2: Also tell young kids that want to be to go

1937
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 2: to I've been saying that.

1938
01:25:08,240 --> 01:25:09,680
Speaker 1: People get mad at me when I say it.

1939
01:25:11,120 --> 01:25:11,960
Speaker 2: I would.

1940
01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:14,120
Speaker 1: I tell you what, I think that that would be

1941
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:17,360
Speaker 1: a very competitive fight for a little while. We know

1942
01:25:17,520 --> 01:25:19,280
Speaker 1: that Poarier can thump.

1943
01:25:20,280 --> 01:25:20,760
Speaker 2: Take him down.

1944
01:25:21,120 --> 01:25:23,760
Speaker 1: I think that's took him down and held him there. Yeah, yeah,

1945
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:27,680
Speaker 1: I think that's the difference. Olvera did not take him

1946
01:25:27,720 --> 01:25:28,519
Speaker 1: down or hold him.

1947
01:25:28,600 --> 01:25:31,240
Speaker 2: Oh you mean put his hand over his mouth? You

1948
01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,280
Speaker 2: mean yes, yeah, it took us back to.

1949
01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:37,920
Speaker 1: I think he would mix it up. I mean, remember

1950
01:25:38,000 --> 01:25:39,760
Speaker 1: what did he do in the first round against Max

1951
01:25:40,080 --> 01:25:42,720
Speaker 1: shot a double right? So like there's no reason to

1952
01:25:42,760 --> 01:25:45,000
Speaker 1: believe he wouldn't try something similar against Dustin just to

1953
01:25:45,080 --> 01:25:45,479
Speaker 1: mix it up.

1954
01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:48,160
Speaker 2: These would be your two favorite fighters ever coming together.

1955
01:25:49,000 --> 01:25:54,280
Speaker 1: Wat not favorite ever, but like on my all star

1956
01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:55,120
Speaker 1: list for sure, I.

1957
01:25:55,120 --> 01:25:57,000
Speaker 2: Mean Long Island. Look, if you had to guess Luke's

1958
01:25:57,040 --> 01:25:58,680
Speaker 2: two favorite fighters of all time, who would you think.

1959
01:25:59,080 --> 01:25:59,720
Speaker 3: I was going to say?

1960
01:25:59,840 --> 01:26:00,839
Speaker 2: Is he an Iliad?

1961
01:26:00,880 --> 01:26:03,679
Speaker 1: Oh that's right, but we're talking all time?

1962
01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:05,760
Speaker 2: It'd be b J. Penn and you were a vult

1963
01:26:05,840 --> 01:26:08,880
Speaker 2: guy too for a while. I'm I'm like, I like.

1964
01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:12,599
Speaker 1: All these guys still. I just I see their primes

1965
01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:14,080
Speaker 1: coming before favorite.

1966
01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:16,160
Speaker 2: No, it's not about that. We all have favorites. I'm

1967
01:26:16,200 --> 01:26:17,160
Speaker 2: just trying to say, like, who.

1968
01:26:17,080 --> 01:26:17,719
Speaker 1: Are your favorites.

1969
01:26:18,280 --> 01:26:25,880
Speaker 2: My core favorite are Joanna, Bryan Ortega, Rose, Rose Units.

1970
01:26:25,880 --> 01:26:28,120
Speaker 2: Those are probably my those three. Really, you can't change

1971
01:26:28,160 --> 01:26:28,560
Speaker 2: what about you?

1972
01:26:29,439 --> 01:26:30,600
Speaker 3: Whitaker and Vulcan.

1973
01:26:31,840 --> 01:26:32,280
Speaker 2: Is a great pick.

1974
01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:35,519
Speaker 3: Really, just because they're Aussies doesn't mean I can't like him.

1975
01:26:35,520 --> 01:26:36,040
Speaker 2: Those are my guys.

1976
01:26:36,040 --> 01:26:36,840
Speaker 1: I mean, they're great guys.

1977
01:26:37,840 --> 01:26:40,040
Speaker 3: I'll throw Wideman up there, I'll throw al Joe up there, throw.

1978
01:26:41,000 --> 01:26:42,080
Speaker 2: Up there hunting in New York.

1979
01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:43,519
Speaker 3: Let's go anyone from Sarah A.

1980
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:45,800
Speaker 2: Longos. All right, very good, there it is. Let's see

1981
01:26:45,800 --> 01:26:50,400
Speaker 2: our next question from an eager beaver at Eric Bolden.

1982
01:26:50,840 --> 01:26:54,000
Speaker 2: Do you think the magic of Hamza has been somewhat

1983
01:26:54,080 --> 01:26:57,040
Speaker 2: lost from when he was fighting every other week? Now

1984
01:26:57,040 --> 01:27:01,320
Speaker 2: he's talking about twenty twenty. Were Hamza? By the way, Like,

1985
01:27:03,240 --> 01:27:04,880
Speaker 2: what's that guy's name that we loved that had a

1986
01:27:04,920 --> 01:27:09,120
Speaker 2: big run in the pandemic? Billy Cwan Billy Q like

1987
01:27:09,200 --> 01:27:11,800
Speaker 2: Billy Q was a major star of the pandemic. You

1988
01:27:11,920 --> 01:27:14,080
Speaker 2: had three victories in what felt like three days for

1989
01:27:14,160 --> 01:27:16,960
Speaker 2: Hamsaud in two different divisions. Yeah. Yes, he's had the

1990
01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:19,479
Speaker 2: COVID stuff, he's had the weight miss with Nate, He's

1991
01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:22,120
Speaker 2: had a lot of things. If he goes out there

1992
01:27:22,160 --> 01:27:26,000
Speaker 2: and does to DDP like kind of like what he

1993
01:27:26,040 --> 01:27:28,639
Speaker 2: did to Robert Whitaker, maybe not, you know, goes through

1994
01:27:28,720 --> 01:27:31,599
Speaker 2: him so quick that we're like, holy shit, that'll that'll

1995
01:27:31,680 --> 01:27:32,760
Speaker 2: repair all of that. Yeah.

1996
01:27:32,800 --> 01:27:35,760
Speaker 1: I mean I was gonna say basically that, which is

1997
01:27:36,120 --> 01:27:38,240
Speaker 1: do I think that some of the magic has lost

1998
01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:38,800
Speaker 1: been lost?

1999
01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:39,120
Speaker 2: Yes?

2000
01:27:39,560 --> 01:27:41,560
Speaker 1: Yes, I don't think you can say it's at the

2001
01:27:41,600 --> 01:27:42,519
Speaker 1: same fever pitch.

2002
01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:43,320
Speaker 2: It's clearly not.

2003
01:27:44,080 --> 01:27:47,120
Speaker 1: However, he's back in the States. He's training for this one.

2004
01:27:47,120 --> 01:27:47,439
Speaker 2: Obviously.

2005
01:27:47,560 --> 01:27:50,439
Speaker 1: I think he's with Dilla Shaw's team now the Training Lab.

2006
01:27:50,520 --> 01:27:52,160
Speaker 1: But they spelled trained with Rain with.

2007
01:27:52,240 --> 01:27:54,479
Speaker 2: The t the Osbourne Lab.

2008
01:27:54,640 --> 01:28:02,439
Speaker 1: No, no, what, dude, I cannot believe that little chapter

2009
01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,360
Speaker 1: in my life lives on in this show every Monday.

2010
01:28:05,439 --> 01:28:08,320
Speaker 1: It's fucking amazing. What I was gonna say was he

2011
01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:12,160
Speaker 1: has the ability to recapture so much of that. Yes,

2012
01:28:12,280 --> 01:28:13,760
Speaker 1: not just with a win over DDP, but to the

2013
01:28:13,800 --> 01:28:16,240
Speaker 1: point you raise if it's a it's a thunderous win

2014
01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:19,120
Speaker 1: or like a dramatic win. I think people do people

2015
01:28:19,280 --> 01:28:21,160
Speaker 1: so good. Part of the II thing is, yes, some

2016
01:28:21,200 --> 01:28:23,200
Speaker 1: people like him, some people don't. But you saw what happen.

2017
01:28:23,200 --> 01:28:25,599
Speaker 1: People were like, WHOA, something special is happening. If Hamzak

2018
01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:27,559
Speaker 1: comes in there and does that to DDP, people are

2019
01:28:27,600 --> 01:28:29,920
Speaker 1: gonna have the exact same or more feelings about him.

2020
01:28:30,560 --> 01:28:31,040
Speaker 2: In that way.

2021
01:28:31,120 --> 01:28:33,799
Speaker 1: People are desperate for a new set of big stars.

2022
01:28:33,960 --> 01:28:34,840
Speaker 1: He can fill that itch.

2023
01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:36,640
Speaker 2: It's okay, we just had a really good night at

2024
01:28:36,640 --> 01:28:39,920
Speaker 2: three seventeen. We're going to have a great night even

2025
01:28:39,960 --> 01:28:43,200
Speaker 2: though the card sucks with Holloway and poor can't suck.

2026
01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:46,479
Speaker 2: We're going to have a freaking great night with DDP versus.

2027
01:28:46,439 --> 01:28:49,200
Speaker 1: And don't forget how uc Abu Dhabi as well Whitaker,

2028
01:28:49,560 --> 01:28:52,519
Speaker 1: RDR and also Pico and Movsar.

2029
01:28:53,360 --> 01:28:55,080
Speaker 2: Let's go. Let's fucking go. Okay.

2030
01:28:55,439 --> 01:28:57,479
Speaker 1: I know today's show was a little bit weird because hey,

2031
01:28:57,640 --> 01:28:59,439
Speaker 1: what the fuck else were we supposed to talk about?

2032
01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:02,840
Speaker 1: But looking forward, you got the blinders on. We got

2033
01:29:02,840 --> 01:29:03,880
Speaker 1: a bunch of good fights this year.

2034
01:29:04,600 --> 01:29:05,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, what else you got here?

2035
01:29:05,560 --> 01:29:06,679
Speaker 1: I've never seen a single episode.

2036
01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:09,439
Speaker 2: I just wear those hats like Chuck. This is from

2037
01:29:09,800 --> 01:29:13,160
Speaker 2: Art Art Church. He told me I was Uro this weekend.

2038
01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:16,839
Speaker 2: What does that mean in handsome Truro is handsome.

2039
01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:18,800
Speaker 1: Well, I don't know how. That's how it is in Spain,

2040
01:29:18,880 --> 01:29:19,960
Speaker 1: but that's how it is in Columbia.

2041
01:29:20,000 --> 01:29:23,439
Speaker 2: Yeah. Wait, Art Truro wants to know. What are your

2042
01:29:23,479 --> 01:29:26,639
Speaker 2: thoughts on the UFC having only one American UFC champ?

2043
01:29:26,800 --> 01:29:29,080
Speaker 2: Is there a shortage of talent in the US or

2044
01:29:29,200 --> 01:29:31,320
Speaker 2: a growth of talent around the world.

2045
01:29:31,400 --> 01:29:39,920
Speaker 1: I think it's both clearly best practices. Like Okay, I

2046
01:29:40,080 --> 01:29:42,560
Speaker 1: remember the days where if you wanted to be a

2047
01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:46,000
Speaker 1: world champion you had to go to Aka, you had.

2048
01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:47,320
Speaker 2: To go to the days you had to go to

2049
01:29:47,400 --> 01:29:48,759
Speaker 2: Iowa and get your ass kicked.

2050
01:29:48,600 --> 01:29:51,719
Speaker 1: By militant fighting systems. You had to go to these places.

2051
01:29:52,080 --> 01:29:54,000
Speaker 1: And then it became kind of novel where you would

2052
01:29:54,000 --> 01:29:55,800
Speaker 1: see guys break out in the UFC would come from

2053
01:29:55,800 --> 01:29:58,519
Speaker 1: these small teams, like OSP coming from a small team

2054
01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:01,160
Speaker 1: in Tennessee, but he never became I'm a champion. And

2055
01:30:01,280 --> 01:30:04,160
Speaker 1: now you're seeing that completely fall away, Like yes, can

2056
01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:07,599
Speaker 1: you still get elite training at Aka or att Yes?

2057
01:30:07,680 --> 01:30:09,960
Speaker 1: Of course you can. But can you become a champion

2058
01:30:10,040 --> 01:30:11,960
Speaker 1: coming from a small team that no one's ever heard of?

2059
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:14,680
Speaker 2: Yes? Like Jack dalea Madeline. What team does he train with?

2060
01:30:14,920 --> 01:30:16,240
Speaker 2: See scrappy Mma?

2061
01:30:16,439 --> 01:30:17,840
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean you know the point I'm trying to

2062
01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:20,760
Speaker 1: fucking make. I mean, I know MMA, all right, you

2063
01:30:20,880 --> 01:30:23,200
Speaker 1: get my point. It's not a huge team. It's not

2064
01:30:23,280 --> 01:30:26,600
Speaker 1: a huge team. So it just tells you that the

2065
01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:29,840
Speaker 1: best practices and what guys can do with that, they

2066
01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:33,480
Speaker 1: can build a champ almost anywhere. True, that is real Australia.

2067
01:30:34,120 --> 01:30:37,200
Speaker 1: I remember when Elvis Cinnasek and Anthony Parrosh were the

2068
01:30:37,280 --> 01:30:39,880
Speaker 1: best Australia has to offer. Now look at the best

2069
01:30:40,360 --> 01:30:43,400
Speaker 1: George Soderopolis. There was a window, but he's he made

2070
01:30:43,439 --> 01:30:45,840
Speaker 1: his like he trained mostly here. I mean that was

2071
01:30:45,840 --> 01:30:47,880
Speaker 1: a little bit different. It's not real a no, he is,

2072
01:30:48,040 --> 01:30:51,200
Speaker 1: but he didn't get good in Australia. He got good.

2073
01:30:51,240 --> 01:30:53,200
Speaker 2: He look it ties into what we talk about of

2074
01:30:53,680 --> 01:30:56,280
Speaker 2: the high level russellers. By the way, I trained Marcello

2075
01:30:56,320 --> 01:30:58,200
Speaker 2: Garcias one time and he was there. Yeah, the high

2076
01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:02,000
Speaker 2: ranking American wrestlers less like lately to go directly to MMA,

2077
01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:05,439
Speaker 2: like we say, and I wonder you remember the you know,

2078
01:31:05,600 --> 01:31:07,840
Speaker 2: fifteen years ago the talk of boxing is where the

2079
01:31:07,920 --> 01:31:10,120
Speaker 2: great American heavyweights? Oh, they're all playing in the NFL.

2080
01:31:10,200 --> 01:31:12,760
Speaker 2: Are we getting to that point too, where people are

2081
01:31:12,800 --> 01:31:15,200
Speaker 2: looking at the pay structures and the violence involved in

2082
01:31:15,280 --> 01:31:17,320
Speaker 2: saying is this the path I want to go? Or

2083
01:31:17,400 --> 01:31:18,320
Speaker 2: I want to go to the team sport?

2084
01:31:18,439 --> 01:31:21,240
Speaker 1: I think NIL has made a bigger difference than we realized.

2085
01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:23,799
Speaker 1: It was not something I had considered until relatively recently,

2086
01:31:23,880 --> 01:31:25,840
Speaker 1: but I do think it plays a role the growth

2087
01:31:25,880 --> 01:31:28,160
Speaker 1: of sport jiu jitsu. I mean, people are definitely making

2088
01:31:28,240 --> 01:31:31,280
Speaker 1: some cost benefit analysis of what can I actually get

2089
01:31:31,320 --> 01:31:32,400
Speaker 1: out of this and what am I going to have

2090
01:31:32,520 --> 01:31:35,160
Speaker 1: to risk to get there? And they just weren't making

2091
01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:38,880
Speaker 1: those same calculations tenish years ago. But I will say

2092
01:31:40,040 --> 01:31:43,320
Speaker 1: I think with a better recruiting effort, some of these

2093
01:31:43,400 --> 01:31:47,200
Speaker 1: problems can be solved. Ok, it's not like we need Well,

2094
01:31:47,600 --> 01:31:50,720
Speaker 1: here's a question for the UFC to survive, but to

2095
01:31:50,800 --> 01:31:51,680
Speaker 1: thrive long term?

2096
01:31:52,080 --> 01:31:54,320
Speaker 2: Do they need a bunch of American champions? I mean

2097
01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:57,200
Speaker 2: it certainly helps in America from a marketing stand Do

2098
01:31:57,320 --> 01:32:03,320
Speaker 2: they need No, as long as they're English speaking. From

2099
01:32:03,320 --> 01:32:05,799
Speaker 2: the standpoint of building stars, and even that doesn't always

2100
01:32:05,800 --> 01:32:07,800
Speaker 2: have for speaks English. But yeah, I mean, look at

2101
01:32:07,800 --> 01:32:10,120
Speaker 2: Amerson Silva didn't really speak English during his prime, but.

2102
01:32:10,120 --> 01:32:12,400
Speaker 1: It also took forever for him to break through.

2103
01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:16,679
Speaker 2: True. True, they're just wired differently in these other countries.

2104
01:32:16,760 --> 01:32:19,200
Speaker 2: As Habibe talks about the sacrifice for those that come

2105
01:32:19,240 --> 01:32:21,160
Speaker 2: from Dagistan and what they're willing to put, I mean,

2106
01:32:21,600 --> 01:32:23,960
Speaker 2: they're fighting more for their in a lot of ways,

2107
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:27,560
Speaker 2: their their future. They're a comfortable future, any kind of

2108
01:32:27,640 --> 01:32:30,439
Speaker 2: future in some cases. Yeah, so we're seeing that. But

2109
01:32:31,320 --> 01:32:32,599
Speaker 2: what you know, is there going to be a new

2110
01:32:32,600 --> 01:32:34,000
Speaker 2: American Hobed that breaks out?

2111
01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:35,960
Speaker 1: Is there going to be things go in waves? You

2112
01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:37,720
Speaker 1: can you can't rule it out. I just think that

2113
01:32:37,800 --> 01:32:40,120
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that are taking good athletes

2114
01:32:40,160 --> 01:32:41,720
Speaker 1: that may have given mm A a bit of a

2115
01:32:41,760 --> 01:32:44,400
Speaker 1: second look, and it's given them options to not necessarily

2116
01:32:44,479 --> 01:32:45,680
Speaker 1: do that, and so we have to figure out what

2117
01:32:45,760 --> 01:32:47,040
Speaker 1: can we do to counteract that.

2118
01:32:47,280 --> 01:32:51,720
Speaker 2: I wonder, even though I'm done with the politics in

2119
01:32:51,840 --> 01:32:55,880
Speaker 2: combat sports, is the close up that UFC gets through

2120
01:32:55,960 --> 01:32:58,280
Speaker 2: the connection to Trump, which could lead to a fight

2121
01:32:58,400 --> 01:33:00,519
Speaker 2: on the lawn for the two hundred fifty the aniversary

2122
01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:03,360
Speaker 2: is that a good recruitment tool for young Americans that

2123
01:33:03,479 --> 01:33:05,360
Speaker 2: looking to go I want to go this route?

2124
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:09,040
Speaker 1: Could be I hope, could be. I hope, yep, I cannot,

2125
01:33:09,120 --> 01:33:11,120
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope, I hope. I hope that there's

2126
01:33:11,200 --> 01:33:13,080
Speaker 1: if there's some kind of way for that to happen.

2127
01:33:13,360 --> 01:33:14,240
Speaker 1: Who would be against it?

2128
01:33:14,520 --> 01:33:16,200
Speaker 2: And if you're if you're ten years old and you

2129
01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:18,320
Speaker 2: watch a damn, you're fifteen years old and you watch

2130
01:33:18,439 --> 01:33:21,479
Speaker 2: this a fight on the White House lawn and that

2131
01:33:21,640 --> 01:33:23,719
Speaker 2: pageantry with that, I wonder if that at.

2132
01:33:23,600 --> 01:33:26,120
Speaker 1: The end day, though, is that going to override concerns

2133
01:33:26,200 --> 01:33:30,120
Speaker 1: if to the extent that pay is a motivating reason

2134
01:33:30,200 --> 01:33:31,640
Speaker 1: to not do it, We're like, yeah, I don't know

2135
01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:33,880
Speaker 1: if the juice worth of squeeze does that override it?

2136
01:33:34,360 --> 01:33:35,720
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know. I don't know how

2137
01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:37,240
Speaker 1: to answer these questions, but I guess we'll have to say.

2138
01:33:37,360 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 2: I mean that the people ask great questions. Do you

2139
01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:42,240
Speaker 2: have any more of these Greek questions? This is from Mt. Booble,

2140
01:33:43,080 --> 01:33:46,120
Speaker 2: What eating contest would you do best at? Just coming

2141
01:33:46,160 --> 01:33:48,920
Speaker 2: off of Joey Chestnut's return after taking a year off

2142
01:33:49,000 --> 01:33:52,000
Speaker 2: to the Cony Island, Nathan's and did you see he

2143
01:33:52,080 --> 01:33:55,840
Speaker 2: won again his eleventh one. Yeah. They answered that as

2144
01:33:56,000 --> 01:33:57,439
Speaker 2: eating ass eating.

2145
01:34:00,040 --> 01:34:01,000
Speaker 1: Where's my hip hop worn?

2188
01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:41,920
Speaker 1: who can eat the blueberry pie the fastest? I think

2189
01:35:41,920 --> 01:35:42,680

2193
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:55,840
Speaker 2: they wrote best wings in the state, like and like

2194
01:35:55,920 --> 01:35:58,360
Speaker 2: you could see it. And toward the tail end, when

2195
01:35:58,360 --> 01:35:59,760
Speaker 2: they were like about to go out of business, they

2196
01:35:59,800 --> 01:36:02,040

2197
01:36:02,120 --> 01:36:04,960
Speaker 2: pay like twenty five bucks, you know. And one time

2198
01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:07,080
Speaker 2: I was served a full rack of ribs and I

2199
01:36:07,320 --> 01:36:10,040
Speaker 2: ate it in less than four minutes, and I grabbed

2200
01:36:10,040 --> 01:36:11,519
Speaker 2: the waitress like, hey, I'm ready for my next one.

2201
01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:15,400
Speaker 2: She was like, all right, it's gonna take about twenty

2202
01:36:15,439 --> 01:36:18,320
Speaker 2: five minutes to cook. That twenty five minutes, it all

2203
01:36:18,400 --> 01:36:20,120
Speaker 2: caught up with me. So by the time it got there,

2204
01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:22,439
Speaker 2: I could only eat one more bite. Dude. I felt

2205
01:36:22,479 --> 01:36:24,280
Speaker 2: like if that second rack was there, I could have

2206
01:36:24,320 --> 01:36:26,479
Speaker 2: done two racks in ten minutes. I went with a

2207
01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:27,760
Speaker 2: body love racks, dude.

2208
01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:32,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, you like big ass too. I want my baby back,

2209
01:36:32,200 --> 01:36:34,400
Speaker 1: baby back. I went with a buddy of mine. I

2210
01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:36,040
Speaker 1: didn't do it this. I was like a teenager. I

2211
01:36:36,080 --> 01:36:38,320
Speaker 1: think I was like thirteen or so. And it was

2212
01:36:38,360 --> 01:36:40,920
Speaker 1: at a Texas steakhouse, not like the branded one, but

2213
01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:42,840
Speaker 1: like you were in Texas and I don't remember which one,

2214
01:36:43,200 --> 01:36:44,280
Speaker 1: and it was one of those ones where it was

2215
01:36:44,320 --> 01:36:46,439
Speaker 1: like eat this giant steak plus the fixings.

2216
01:36:46,720 --> 01:36:50,680
Speaker 2: Bixton's watch the Lord, He's bounding down. Were were you

2217
01:36:50,800 --> 01:36:51,360
Speaker 2: in Austin?

2218
01:36:52,120 --> 01:36:55,160
Speaker 1: It was Austin, Yes, nice, all the comedians this is

2219
01:36:55,280 --> 01:37:01,080
Speaker 1: this was pre pre Rogan. He ate all the But

2220
01:37:01,280 --> 01:37:03,160
Speaker 1: it was a pyrrhic victory in a sense. It wasn't

2221
01:37:03,160 --> 01:37:05,639
Speaker 1: even a victory because he didn't win. But he managed

2222
01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:07,400
Speaker 1: to eat the hard part and he could not eat

2223
01:37:07,439 --> 01:37:10,200
Speaker 1: the baked potato, so he lost. He lost on the

2224
01:37:10,240 --> 01:37:11,960
Speaker 1: whole thing. He couldn't do it because the rule was

2225
01:37:12,040 --> 01:37:14,320
Speaker 1: you had to have that. Plus I think two fixings,

2226
01:37:14,360 --> 01:37:16,639
Speaker 1: and one was I think he had mac and cheese,

2227
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:19,600
Speaker 1: and maybe the other one was the potato with a

2228
01:37:19,680 --> 01:37:22,280
Speaker 1: loaded potato. Yeah, so it's got the sour cream, the cheese,

2229
01:37:22,360 --> 01:37:24,280
Speaker 1: the chives, the whole bit. You couldn't do it, dude,

2230
01:37:24,320 --> 01:37:26,519
Speaker 1: I don't think I could eat. Steak is the hardest

2231
01:37:26,520 --> 01:37:27,160
Speaker 1: thing to eat fast.

2232
01:37:27,240 --> 01:37:29,320
