If my research is accurate, 101 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 5: it's a long time. Well, I have no idea. Who 102 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,119 Speaker 5: why would you? I just looked it up. Why would 103 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 5: you Dimitrius Johnson versus the soon to be returning Kyogi 104 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 5: Horra Gucci? Wow? Wow? Interesting?

Yeah, yeah, I think 108 00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 5: we were there for Shogun Hu and Lioto Machida. Does 109 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 5: that sound right anyway?

How about the buzz 123 00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 5: in Des Moines, Iowa. I mean, you want to talk 124 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 5: about the UFC not being at a place for a 125 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:32,400 Speaker 5: long time, right, how about first trip to the Great 126 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 5: State of Iowa since UFC twenty six in June of 127 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 5: two thousand and with much fanfare, Kenflow, UFC and Corey 128 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 5: Sandhagan deliver. 129 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 7: Absolutely And Iowa has such a rich history of obviously wrestling, 130 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,600 Speaker 7: but even combat sports. I mean, so many great fighters 131 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 7: have come from that area and I know that they 132 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 7: are Rabbit MMA fans, and it sounded like it over 133 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 7: the weekend. 134 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,799 Speaker 5: That was really cool, sid on point. 135 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 7: I mean, first of all, went out there, immediately established 136 00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 7: a proper range, seemed like he was really tuned in 137 00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 7: from the get go, was sharp, was accurate, was relaxed, 138 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 7: and also had bad intentions with everything he was doing 139 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 7: out there, And that's exactly what you need to do 140 00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:16,040 Speaker 7: against someone like Davison Figuerretto, who's a very dangerous fighter 141 00:07:16,080 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 7: in his own right. Landed a couple shots, or at 142 00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 7: least it looked like when I saw it live, looked 143 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 7: like he landed some good strikes, but ultimately, Corey sand 144 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,400 Speaker 7: Haagen just way too much skill and versatility in that fight. 145 00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 5: So preparation has been a benchmark of Corey Sandhagen's success, 146 00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 5: you know, And I hate to suggest that for any fighter, 147 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 5: it's an eventuality that you'll fight for the undisputed championship. 148 00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 5: He fought Pyotr Jan for the interim championship, right But 149 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 5: even when there have been missteps or surprising quick losses 150 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 5: to aljaminer Sterling, even if that loss would have been 151 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 5: more acceptable had it gone a little bit longer, you know, 152 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 5: he's always sort of responded in kind, and I don't 153 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 5: want to get ahead of the fight before we get 154 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 5: to what actually happens sequentially here. But I really hope 155 00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 5: that Corey at this point just waits and is granted 156 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 5: that opportunity to fight for the undisputed championship. There are 157 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,960 Speaker 5: a lot of big fights that a lot of fight fans, 158 00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 5: big fight fans, rabbit fight fans want to see him in, 159 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 5: but nobody better to talk us through. I guess what 160 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 5: happened at the end of the fight than you. What 161 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 5: do you have for us on that unfortunate moment for 162 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 5: Davison figuretto but largely caused by Corey. 163 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:24,840 Speaker 7: Absolutely, And I think it's super important as a fighter, 164 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 7: or if you want to be good at anything, you 165 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 7: have to be very honest with yourself about where your 166 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:32,040 Speaker 7: skill level is at, what you need to improve on, 167 00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 7: go out and seek the help that you need. And 168 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 7: Corey Sanhagen is that guy. I've always been impressed with 169 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:40,839 Speaker 7: his assessment of his performances and what he needs to 170 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 7: do to get better, and I think we saw him 171 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 7: level up here in this fight. 172 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 5: In regards to that move. 173 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,720 Speaker 7: That is directly influenced and taught by by Ryan Hall, 174 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 7: that has been his specialty since he was in jiu 175 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 7: jitsu certainly has used that. It's a great effect in 176 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 7: mixed martial arts as well, and it's position that I 177 00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 7: think is often misunderstand good and Ryan knows that position 178 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 7: inside and out. Corey san Haagan did a great job 179 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 7: of deflecting the weight of Davison, figuredo. So when he 180 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,599 Speaker 7: had that leg in that fifty to fifty where the 181 00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 7: leg is kind of crows going across the body, you know, 182 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,960 Speaker 7: he did a great job of tucking underneath, like between 183 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 7: the legs. 184 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:21,479 Speaker 5: You know, anytime Davison tried to face him or punch. 185 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 7: Him, he was always going a different way, and he 186 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 7: put a lot of torque on that inside of the knee. 187 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 7: John So as he was getting up, he pushed his 188 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,440 Speaker 7: knee down towards the mat where the ankle was was 189 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 7: straight up, so effectively doing like an inside heel hook 190 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 7: type motion to that knee. Davison was not ready for it. 191 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 7: It certainly looked like he popped the inside of his knee, 192 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 7: and yeah, I mean Corey was using that specifically to 193 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,000 Speaker 7: try to sweep him. It does put a whole lot 194 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:53,920 Speaker 7: of torque on that knee. It looked like Davison was 195 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 7: resisting and as a result got injured. 196 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:58,360 Speaker 5: So Davison figure Out all got off to an outstanding 197 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 5: start when he moved up to the bandam Way division, 198 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 5: but this probably closes the championship door for him at 199 00:10:03,240 --> 00:10:05,320 Speaker 5: one hundred and thirty five pounds. I just think when 200 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 5: you looked at this matchup right, and we looked at 201 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 5: the bloated betting line, there were a lot of people 202 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 5: yourself probably among them, that just felt skill for skill, 203 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 5: that this was going to be a really uphill battle, 204 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,640 Speaker 5: regardless of you know, this fight ending circumstance or what 205 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 5: might have happened a minute or a second late. 206 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 7: It's not to diminish the skill of Davison Figureiro, because 207 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 7: I do think he's a very skillful fighter, but I 208 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 7: think that that physicality, the size, the strength that he 209 00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 7: had at flyweight was significant enough that it really he 210 00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 7: was that much more of a problem in that way 211 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 7: class and bantamweight. First of all, this skill level is 212 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 7: just insane. It might be the most technical division in 213 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 7: the UFC, certainly one of them, and it was a 214 00:10:48,160 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 7: very very tough stylistic matchup for him for sure. 215 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 5: All Right, So Corey Sanhagen fought Umar and Or Mago 216 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 5: Metov when not a lot of people wanted to write 217 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 5: and sort of put his ranking on the line. I 218 00:11:01,440 --> 00:11:05,240 Speaker 5: guess I wouldn't say, like Sean Strickland against Alex Paeda 219 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,880 Speaker 5: because Umar was creeping right, But Sanhagan twice signed to 220 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 5: fight Umar and R Magametov, right, Yep, He's fought Pyotr Jan, 221 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:14,920 Speaker 5: but he has never fought the two men who June 222 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 5: seventh compete for the bandaweight championship, Morob Wallace Willie and 223 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 5: Sean O'Malley. So sometimes the calendar just aligns. And with 224 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,480 Speaker 5: respect to Pyodrian, who obviously beat Davis end and who 225 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,080 Speaker 5: is right there and very relevant. You know, I don't 226 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:33,840 Speaker 5: know what comes down to these type of decisions when 227 00:11:33,880 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 5: it's say Pyoldrian versus Corey Sangeg. But wouldn't you think 228 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 5: at this point in time, you know, if especially if 229 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 5: it's Morob in theory and he turns quickly that that 230 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 5: this is the fresh guy in the fight that fans 231 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 5: would want to see. I think so, I think would 232 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 5: be a great fight. 233 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 7: You know, I think another important thing is not only 234 00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:54,840 Speaker 7: the calendar aligning, but the matchup aligning. You know, I 235 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 7: think that he I think Corey matches up maybe the 236 00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 7: best against Sean O'Malley from a strike perspective and and 237 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 7: his length and size and all that stuff, Maybe not 238 00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 7: as well against someone like a Morob, Right. So yeah, 239 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 7: I'm really curious to see what happens if he does 240 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 7: take a fight before that contender. 241 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:15,599 Speaker 5: I mean he may have to just with all the 242 00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 5: competition out there. I don't know. We'll see. Yeah, it's tricky, right, 243 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 5: So Sean O'Malley's the number one rank contender, Pioder Yan 244 00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 5: number two? Right, I mean you're not going to run 245 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 5: it back with Yan and san Haagen right now? I 246 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,319 Speaker 5: wouldn't think, right, Nor I don't think would you run 247 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:29,840 Speaker 5: it back with Umar and san Haagen? 248 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 8: Right? Like? 249 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 5: Who would have the upper hand between Umar and san 250 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,000 Speaker 5: Hagen in terms of the inside track for a title shot? Right? 251 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 5: I would? This is the thing, right, It's like Availability 252 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 5: is your best friend in mixed martial arts, right, and 253 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:44,920 Speaker 5: Umar I think is on the men right now. So yeah, 254 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 5: we'll see what happens. And then, of course, if Sean 255 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 5: O'Malley becomes the champion on June seventh, how likely is 256 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 5: he to turn around? Say Madison Square Garden whereas I 257 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 5: can say, without even talking to the man, that Morob 258 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,400 Speaker 5: is trying to fight every three months and fight the 259 00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:03,040 Speaker 5: most deserving guy, right. So yeah, well we congratulate Cory Sandhagen. 260 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 5: He's a good guy and uh, you know, it's interesting 261 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 5: to see his sort of social media tone change in 262 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 5: the lead up to this fight. But I think he's 263 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 5: a man who has the respect of the people who 264 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 5: matter in this sport, people like you and Ryan Hall 265 00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:19,559 Speaker 5: and his fellow fighters, his contemporaries. So you know, it's 266 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 5: good to see a guy like that. Shine. He's gone 267 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 5: about his business the right way. 268 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 7: I think, you know, definitely man, super skilled, super smart, 269 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 7: and uh, I do think he'll fight for the Belton 270 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:29,040 Speaker 7: in near future. 271 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 5: Good egg. Congratulations to uh Cory Sanhagen. Plenty more coming 272 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 5: up on on san Hagen would long ago later. But 273 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 5: how about rye near the fucking ridder? Can flow? R dr? Like? 274 00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,679 Speaker 5: If I'm our da, right?

Yeah, 276 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:50,440 Speaker 5: what do you think I'm gonna say? I'm saying if 277 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 5: I'm our Da, I'm like buck Man. You know, I 278 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 5: don't need this guy to be Superman. 279 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 3: You know. 280 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:02,439 Speaker 5: Hafeojo Sanjos is the man, but a d R. There 281 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 5: might be a quarter of an hour that we spend 282 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 5: on bo Nickel, but Ken flow it. It's Ry near 283 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 5: de Ritter. The record says by tko knees, there was 284 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,959 Speaker 5: a need of the body in there several comes at 285 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 5: a the one fifty three mark around to your thoughts, 286 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,440 Speaker 5: I may have been feeling some of those knees. 287 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 6: Those knees looked brutal. 288 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 7: And it's always interesting to see when a dominant fighter 289 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 7: gets hurt for the first time how they respond physically. 290 00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:34,040 Speaker 7: You know, what are the telltale signs, what's their body 291 00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:38,560 Speaker 7: language like? And bo Nickel just could not hide it. 292 00:14:38,560 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 7: It takes practice, it takes experience, and it was clear 293 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 7: that he still doesn't have that just yet. And we 294 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 7: also found out that RDR Ryan near de Ritter is 295 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 7: a handful for anyone in that division. He is legit, 296 00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:55,720 Speaker 7: he is versatile, he is huge for the division. He 297 00:14:55,760 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 7: made boon Nickel look very small and he just looked 298 00:14:58,680 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 7: on point. 299 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 5: Man. He's gonna be problem strength of schedule, Championship medal, 300 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 5: all outside the UFC all boxes that he checked, and 301 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 5: I think that his credentials sort of dovetail with the 302 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 5: betting line being as close as it was relative to 303 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:15,840 Speaker 5: where I guess Bonnicol was at Kenny. There is so 304 00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 5: much to get into on this, and I am going 305 00:15:19,560 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 5: to live in Bonnickel before we spin it forward for 306 00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,479 Speaker 5: Nyod Ritter, who I think wisely called out shown Strickland. 307 00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 5: So Bonnickel recently has chimed in on Instagram, grateful for 308 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:30,240 Speaker 5: the highs and lows. I'll be back, and I have 309 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 5: no doubt he'll be back. I think there is definitely 310 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 5: a fighter in grain within. And I didn't have enough 311 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 5: time in my UFC three p. Fifteen prep to sort 312 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 5: of look back at some of his wrestling losses and 313 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 5: how he responded to those. I'm sure he responded quite well. 314 00:15:43,000 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 5: But he likes the fight. I don't think he minds 315 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 5: getting hurt. But gosh, like, where do we begin? Right? 316 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 5: And I do have some quotes from some people out there, 317 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 5: so Luke Thomas said his development is not going correctly, 318 00:15:58,600 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 5: sort of insinuating that his development hasn't dovetailed with the 319 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:05,120 Speaker 5: hype for Bonnickel. It exploded all of it. There's no 320 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,440 Speaker 5: place left to hide. I have a tweet that I 321 00:16:07,480 --> 00:16:10,640 Speaker 5: want to read from Henry Shudo if I could. Yeah, 322 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 5: the wrestling world has taken a hit today. Keep your 323 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 5: head up, bon Nickel. This is not the end. I 324 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 5: got finished by Demetrius Johnson with a similar body shot, 325 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:17,760 Speaker 5: and I went on too, avenge of that loss and 326 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 5: become champion. You are capable of doing the same. Get 327 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 5: back on your horse, brother, and it will be interesting 328 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:25,800 Speaker 5: in terms of the mechanisms and the training what might change, right, 329 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 5: because you know, even though he has been brought along 330 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 5: deliberately and liberally, you know he is enough years into 331 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 5: this thing where this litmus test not only was it 332 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 5: not passed, but there are a lot of people who 333 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 5: feel like it's wicked concerning relative to now his trajectory 334 00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:44,880 Speaker 5: and his seal. 335 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:47,680 Speaker 7: I don't see it that way, and I think we 336 00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 7: talked about it on the last shell where I said, 337 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 7: you know, if he loses this one, this is one 338 00:16:52,680 --> 00:16:55,600 Speaker 7: where he can learn from it, as opposed to kind 339 00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 7: of getting to that championship shot and kind of not 340 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 7: doing so hart and then having difficult match after difficult 341 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 7: match after difficult match. He has been taking the right 342 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 7: fights at the right time. I think this one he 343 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,919 Speaker 7: was a little over his head. But this is the 344 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,800 Speaker 7: fight where you're gonna find out about yourself what you 345 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 7: need to improve on. And I think bon Nickel is 346 00:17:18,000 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 7: gonna come back stronger, There's no question in my mind. 347 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 7: I love that tweet from Henry Sujudo, and you look 348 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 7: at the experienced difference between Ryan Ear and bow Nickel. 349 00:17:29,880 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 7: It's significant, John, So I don't see a big problem. 350 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 7: This is a little hiccup on his way. You know, 351 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,199 Speaker 7: everyone thinks you have to be undefeated to be an 352 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 7: amazing fighter for some reason. A lot of times you 353 00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 7: can hide behind an undefeated record as well. And I 354 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:45,960 Speaker 7: think bo Nickel will be better for sure. 355 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 5: So he'd be a very interesting guy to talk to. 356 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 5: I wanted to give him a little bit of breathing room, right, 357 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 5: but in terms of everything that goes into not just 358 00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 5: living up to the hype, right, but like maintaining your 359 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 5: wrestling at the highest level, right, making sure that it's 360 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:05,160 Speaker 5: the best in MMA, right, whether you have an amateur 361 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 5: background like his or none like George Saint Pierre. You know, 362 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,360 Speaker 5: so there are no easy outs in this middleweight division. 363 00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 5: I think that's where I align with Luke and other 364 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 5: talking heads who say all right, you know, I mean 365 00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 5: Jamie Pickett's not walking through that door. Now, who do 366 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 5: you like? Who do you like? At one hundred and 367 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:24,800 Speaker 5: eighty five pounds? So if I were to ask you 368 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 5: before we get back to uh Ryan near to fucking Ritter, like, 369 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:33,040 Speaker 5: do you think Bo Nicol still you still see them 370 00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 5: all in chips in the center of the table. Like 371 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 5: if I said Anakin Florent Pole question, is bon Nickel 372 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:38,639 Speaker 5: one day fight for the title? You still say yes? 373 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,600 Speaker 6: I still say yes. Absolutely. 374 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 7: This isn't a guy with thirty fights, twenty fights. He 375 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,280 Speaker 7: just came into the UFC not too long ago. Yes, 376 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 7: he's been very dominant in what we've seen from him, but. 377 00:18:51,240 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 6: He's still a developing fighter. 378 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,120 Speaker 7: So he made a poor choice I think in going 379 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 7: for that guillotine around one. He was winging some pudges 380 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 7: at the end. You know, there was some physical body 381 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 7: language that I think was harmful to him. You know 382 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 7: when you when a fighter knows that you're hurt and 383 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 7: you're kind of in trouble there, and Ranier knew exactly 384 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 7: what he needs to do to finish him. So huge, 385 00:19:14,680 --> 00:19:18,720 Speaker 7: huge difference in experience level and skill level, and I 386 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 7: think Bo Nickel with the right fights again. Yeah, we'll 387 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,119 Speaker 7: come back and he will fight for the belt and 388 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 7: maybe even be a belt holder. 389 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 5: You gotta think there, And yes, you talked about it 390 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 5: last week. There's so much good to be extracted from 391 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:35,399 Speaker 5: this loss for Bo right. Certainly you can argue that 392 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 5: it has more value than any number of his MMA wins. Yes, 393 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:44,840 Speaker 5: but my gosh, man, you know, like I know, there 394 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 5: were a lot of people out there who felt like 395 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 5: Ryan near de Ritter was a live underdog. And maybe 396 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 5: my body language suggests that I wasn't one of them. 397 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 5: I just believed, and I shouldn't say past tense. I 398 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 5: believe in Bo Nickel. And you know, I mean, this 399 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,879 Speaker 5: is an appreciable setback, and I I think sort of 400 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 5: I understand, maybe I'm maybe we maybe we respectfully disagree. 401 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 5: I just think, like, dude, best of luck four or five, 402 00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:10,439 Speaker 5: six months from now, whoever's in your bracket, you know, 403 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 5: Jesus christ Man. 404 00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:14,720 Speaker 7: But you know, no, and it's especially tough for those 405 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 7: people who weren't on the bow Nickel train, right, And 406 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 7: there were a lot of people out there that said, 407 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 7: you know, he hasn't fought anybody, He's you know, done this, 408 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 7: and then you know, here he is, he tripped on 409 00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,760 Speaker 7: this fight here against our dr and and people are 410 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 7: gonna be saying, you know, no, there's no way he's 411 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 7: gonna be able to make it. 412 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 5: So I don't know. 413 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 7: I'm definitely more optimistic on his chances of fighting for 414 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 7: the belt, But it all comes down to how he 415 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 7: responds to this challenge, and I think he's used to 416 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 7: that from wrestling. 417 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 5: Well, those who thought it was ludicrous to suggest that 418 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,840 Speaker 5: he was ready for someone like Hamza Chimayav at this 419 00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 5: stage of his career, you know, maybe you know they 420 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,480 Speaker 5: you know, they're the ones who get the last laugh 421 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:57,639 Speaker 5: on that front. But that's really not what it was about. 422 00:20:57,800 --> 00:21:00,160 Speaker 5: And I think a lot of people weren't even going 423 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 5: to that length. But how good can Rhine near de 424 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 5: Riddter be? 425 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:03,640 Speaker 3: Right? 426 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 5: Like losses can age gracefully? And if you're Kevin Hall 427 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,119 Speaker 5: under somebody else that right near Deritdter has put in 428 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 5: the rear view mirror, this is maybe a time where 429 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 5: you puff out your chest a little bit. How good 430 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 5: can can Rhye near de Ridder be potentially across two divisions? Well, uh, 431 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,840 Speaker 5: he is certainly championship material. I love the call out 432 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 5: of Sean Strickland. 433 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 7: I mean that's how you fast track your way to 434 00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,000 Speaker 7: a middleweight belt. 435 00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 5: Uh. And I think that. 436 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:32,479 Speaker 7: He's looked very dangerous in a variety of areas. His 437 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 7: striking was completely on point, just the weapon of choice 438 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 7: of where he was hurting bon Nickel. He knew by 439 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:42,600 Speaker 7: just throwing that knee down the middle that he was 440 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,360 Speaker 7: going to basically hurt the body or for any kind 441 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 7: of level change or double leg from bon Nickel. So 442 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 7: I thought it was smarter on a couple of different fronts. 443 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 7: But he's a guy that that might be might be 444 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 7: able to win the belt. 445 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 6: John. 446 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:58,119 Speaker 5: So we're sitting here live on a Sunday night, Ryan 447 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:03,399 Speaker 5: near de riddter r d R sorry RDA is number 448 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 5: thirteen in the world. Right, So I'm just looking at 449 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 5: these rankings here populated in our chat. You can go 450 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,879 Speaker 5: to like UFC dot com slash rankings if you're so inclined. 451 00:22:13,600 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 5: But why don't you put him in there with that 452 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:18,680 Speaker 5: Louisiana motherfucker, Brendan Allen versus bow Nickel, Right? I think 453 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 5: somebody who's going to bring the fight to bow Nickel again, Right, 454 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:23,960 Speaker 5: because Domina Cruz often says, you know, the UFC presents 455 00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 5: you with certain stylistic challenges. So is that a guy 456 00:22:26,480 --> 00:22:29,800 Speaker 5: who's way too experienced right now you're going to give 457 00:22:29,840 --> 00:22:32,119 Speaker 5: him someone higher in the rankings. I mean, I don't know, 458 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 5: right I guess we're trying to spin it forward for 459 00:22:33,920 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 5: Rhinier de Ritter. But part of the issue here, I 460 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 5: guess issue in a good sense, success for Rhinier de 461 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 5: Ritter was just taking the fight right to bow and 462 00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:44,679 Speaker 5: not over respecting the. 463 00:22:44,720 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 7: Guy definitely, And I think that that was a big, 464 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 7: big difference in how he was responding with his striking. 465 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:53,359 Speaker 7: It was almost like he didn't care if he was 466 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,240 Speaker 7: going to be taken down or you know, he was 467 00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 7: just moving forward with those needs. He got to that 468 00:22:58,200 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 7: clinch position, he was using his is physicality against bon 469 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:06,520 Speaker 7: Nickel extremely well, and he found a vulnerability and kept 470 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,200 Speaker 7: attacking it, and it was Bonnickel who just couldn't adjust 471 00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 7: to it. 472 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,680 Speaker 5: So if I asked you who is likely to fight 473 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 5: for a belt sooner, Rhyan near DeRidder or bo Nickel, 474 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,159 Speaker 5: you'd almost assuredly say Rhyan near de Ritter. And I 475 00:23:18,160 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 5: think there's a chance he gets fast tracked. Yeah, because 476 00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 5: I mean, for one, if you ain't Dutch, you ain't much, right. 477 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 5: But I also think secondarily Kenny, he seems to be 478 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 5: cut from the cloth of a guy who's willing to 479 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:33,479 Speaker 5: turn around and accept big time fights on you know, 480 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 5: for six weeks. Notice he has stayed busy. The UFC 481 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 5: loves that. 482 00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 7: I would also when the fact that this dude has 483 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 7: two belts in two different weight classes Man World Championships. 484 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,600 Speaker 7: Certainly not at the love of the other UFC fighters, 485 00:23:44,640 --> 00:23:48,040 Speaker 7: but you know, I think that's a big deal. That's 486 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,960 Speaker 7: something you can definitely promote, dude. 487 00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 5: I saw somebody with an RDA T shirt and they 488 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 5: were trying to make the A an right, are you serious? 489 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 5: Joking right now? Okay, but don't try Just go support 490 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:07,199 Speaker 5: Ryan near de Ritter like we ordered IOWA Wrestling. So 491 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 5: the only bad part about the call out of Sean Strickland, 492 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 5: other than maybe leapfrogging eleven guys in the rankings, right, 493 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 5: is that if you do pay attention to the MMA stratosphere, 494 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,280 Speaker 5: and perhaps some of us are on our cello telephones 495 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:22,240 Speaker 5: more than we should be. Right, you know that Israel 496 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 5: Desina has called for a rematch with Sean Strickland and 497 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 5: is he would seem to have a lot of leverage. 498 00:24:28,760 --> 00:24:31,679 Speaker 5: I think that that rematch has a compelling nature to 499 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 5: it because it was fifty to forty five Strickland and 500 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 5: maybe Sean would not be of a big appetite for it, right, 501 00:24:37,000 --> 00:24:39,119 Speaker 5: I'm just saying. The only downside of that is that, 502 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:42,720 Speaker 5: I mean, our dr is getting a big fight regardless. 503 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:44,240 Speaker 5: I'm just not sure he's gonna get that one. 504 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:46,919 Speaker 7: But I like the call up, you know, I absolutely 505 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,720 Speaker 7: and also for Sean Strickland, and it is real. I 506 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 7: mean that that's a fight that's gonna make them both 507 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 7: a good amount of money and it's not for a belt, so. 508 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 5: Right right, you know that that becomes enticing for sure. 509 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 5: But Ryan near to Ridder man very very interesting and uh, 510 00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 5: you know occasionally I do like to buy merchandise for 511 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:09,000 Speaker 5: these fighters. So if Ryan and Ridder has any merchandise, 512 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 5: I think I might be going to the store. By 513 00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 5: the way, I got wind of Manal Fiorro or Fure 514 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 5: whatever the fuck it is, will find out Thursday. Fyodor 515 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,640 Speaker 5: Feodal to play the file later. My twin brothers losing 516 00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 5: his mind if he's watching live, so her walkout song. 517 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:30,760 Speaker 5: I mean, I can't really say much, but it's just 518 00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 5: straight fire. She's come out to her whole career, I 519 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,480 Speaker 5: think pretty much. But oh it's so good. Yeah, man, 520 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,439 Speaker 5: I need to know, right, you don't even need to know, 521 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 5: you just know it's fire. I mean, hop on a treadmill, 522 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,520 Speaker 5: facts with it, Yeah, exactly, you get it all right? Well, 523 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 5: Bonnickel had seven wrestling losses in high school, and I'm 524 00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 5: sure he responded quite well. But it is very interesting. 525 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,080 Speaker 5: And this is what makes the fight game so great 526 00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 5: because we've talked about the relative electricity of haamzat Chimai have. 527 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:03,920 Speaker 5: I've repeatedly said his most electric five force in the game. 528 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 5: Dana White agrees bon Nickel hitting that inspection zone right, 529 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 5: getting fucking vasiline put on his eyebros for his next fight, 530 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 5: It's gonna be a tense moment, you know. Yeah, I mean, 531 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:15,439 Speaker 5: this was a fight night in Des Moines. You know, 532 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 5: who's to say bon nichols next fight is not live 533 00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 5: on pay per view against h Adamic Florian pod Man, 534 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:26,120 Speaker 5: Who's should bon Nickel fight next? Congratulations to Ryan near 535 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 5: de Ritter. I'd like to flip ahead to Gillian Robertson 536 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 5: for a second before we get to de rodden some 537 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 5: of these other winners, because my gosh, man, it's pretty 538 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 5: interesting to have Dean Thomas on the show and they 539 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 5: talk about sort of physicality and finishing and everything that 540 00:26:39,160 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 5: he's been preaching. And she's been working for so many 541 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 5: years now, tied with I think Amanda Nunez is the 542 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 5: most decorated finisher in UFC women's history. Can flow Jillian 543 00:26:50,640 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 5: Robertson sends Marina Hadriguez into retirement, and Jillian's an absolute force. 544 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,199 Speaker 5: I'm curious how far she can take it. 545 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 7: I think would She's offensive, just like Dean said, and 546 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,000 Speaker 7: she's moving forward and she's able to implement her ground game. 547 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:07,919 Speaker 7: She's going to give girls fits in that division, no 548 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,359 Speaker 7: question about it. I think she looked really good. The 549 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 7: other thing I think is for Marina Rodriguez, can we 550 00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 7: call her Amrod? 551 00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 6: That does it sound right? 552 00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 4: Whatever? 553 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 3: He? 554 00:27:15,560 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 5: God, damn well, please Amrod? 555 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 6: That's what's up? 556 00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 5: You know she? 557 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:22,920 Speaker 7: I think it was great to be aggressive against her, 558 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 7: especially with her lack of kind of momentum in the division. 559 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 5: I think she she's not fighting with. 560 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 7: The same level of confidence that she had early On 561 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 7: in my opinion, and and just the way that Robertson 562 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:35,400 Speaker 7: was moving forward and attacking. 563 00:27:36,040 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 5: She fought a perfect fight. So Jillian's going to get 564 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:40,920 Speaker 5: a big fight at strawwaight. And I think those who 565 00:27:40,960 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 5: scoffed when I suggested Jillian in a main event maybe 566 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,480 Speaker 5: think a little bit differently. I mean, you know, she's 567 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:48,639 Speaker 5: going to attack and be offensive, right, Like, if you're 568 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:50,080 Speaker 5: trying to find a straweight who's not going to be 569 00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 5: in a twenty five minute main event, maybe it's her, dude, 570 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 5: Her and Mackenzie Dern sign it, and I think that's 571 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 5: the fight. I think that's the fight. I don't know 572 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 5: what that says relative to the rankings, right, but Dern 573 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 5: the Robertson, and that's the other thing, right, Like I'm 574 00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 5: a company guy, but hopefully durn V Rodriguez excuse me, 575 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 5: durn v ha durn V Robertson, sorry, is not the 576 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 5: Apex right right, you know? Because that fight just screams 577 00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 5: APEX when although the new newly designed Apex might be 578 00:28:22,320 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 5: uh might be frosty and loud. So uh, big rent 579 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:32,040 Speaker 5: win for LA's Daniel Rodriguez. Huh, d Rod, I can 580 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 5: call him d Rod uh, he looked. He looked like, 581 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 5: we get back to m Rod for a second, or 582 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,239 Speaker 5: oh yeah, sorry, I mean, you know, we don't need 583 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 5: to live in this. But three time UFC headliners she retired, 584 00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,120 Speaker 5: and then she sort of she was asking, I think, 585 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,720 Speaker 5: for some money for a charity or you know, a 586 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,920 Speaker 5: relative to her expectations. I think she walks away pretty disappointed, 587 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 5: and I think for a lot of fighters, you know, 588 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 5: he's just like, oh my gosh, you know a couple 589 00:28:55,040 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 5: you know, eighteen months ago, you're headlining, about to maybe 590 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 5: get in title shot candidacy, and then the next thing, 591 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 5: you know, it's over. 592 00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 3: Yeah. 593 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 5: And I thought she was gonna do big things in 594 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:04,880 Speaker 5: the division. 595 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 7: And I think she definitely was successful overall, no question 596 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 7: about it. But I expected even more from her, just 597 00:29:10,400 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 7: because I thought she was a really talented striker. When 598 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 7: she was on her game and throwing sharp combinations, she. 599 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:16,440 Speaker 5: Was a handful. 600 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 7: I think maybe her lack of development when it came 601 00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 7: to wrestling in the ground game, I think that's what 602 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,719 Speaker 7: kind of hurt her moving forward once people found that 603 00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 7: they could kind of peck at that wound. And anyways, 604 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 7: but overall, I thought she was a really good striker. 605 00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 5: All right, d rod Man two in a row now 606 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 5: for d Rod absolutely huge when you think about the 607 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:42,560 Speaker 5: circumstances he found himself in against Calvin Gaslam in Saudi Arabia. 608 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 5: He gets it done over, you know, a sort of fading. 609 00:29:47,000 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 5: I guess at this point in time, Santiago Ponzanibo, the 610 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 5: TKO comes at one twelve or round three. Can flow 611 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 5: your thoughts on that. De Rod looked like he was 612 00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 5: on point from the get go. 613 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 7: His takedown defense, especially up against the cages Ol he's 614 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,480 Speaker 7: been good, but just his takedown defense in general was 615 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 7: on point because that's where I thought Pontinibia had the 616 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 7: best chance of beating him on the feet. Just the 617 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 7: style that Ponsinibio has. He likes to trade and he 618 00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 7: likes to keep that chin up in the air, and 619 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:14,560 Speaker 7: De Rod likes to take that chin off your face 620 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 7: and landed a nasty finishing sequence that would have taken 621 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 7: out a lot of guys in that division. De Rod 622 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 7: hits extremely hard. He's got long, long arms and he's 623 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:30,400 Speaker 7: throwing punches and bunches down. So I thought it was 624 00:30:30,440 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 7: a fantastic performance. 625 00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:34,800 Speaker 5: Big night for Cannabis with wins for Gillian Robertson and 626 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 5: Daniel Rodriguez all right now with us, and we are 627 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 5: absolutely privileged and thrilled to have about ten minutes of 628 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:45,479 Speaker 5: this man's time. He has wheels and boots on the ground, 629 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 5: I believe here in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, raining defending on 630 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:53,560 Speaker 5: disputed UFC Weltaway champion Balao. Remember the name Muhammad. We 631 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:55,760 Speaker 5: are live, brother, It's great to see you.

It sounds like and it looks 636 00:31:11,120 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 5: like for those of us that have been tracking you 637 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,720 Speaker 5: on Instagram, that you got the whole contingent. You know, 638 00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 5: we were looking through the uh the corner earlier today 639 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 5: and I did notice a new name that I didn't 640 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 5: recognize for Dobbs Callem. 641 00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 8: Is that right, fors No, that's a that's a that's 642 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,920 Speaker 8: a manager. He's not gonna be a corner all right. 643 00:31:29,000 --> 00:31:31,720 Speaker 5: It's so interesting. So not that I'm bringing my prep 644 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 5: to the air, but you know, we got like six 645 00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 5: or seven guys, I mean this entourage is getting a 646 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 5: little bit thick at this point in time as the manager, 647 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 5: so big things, first title defense. You know, I guess 648 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,560 Speaker 5: I'll lead with the obvious question.

But you 753 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 5: are like the opposite of an excuse guy. So if 754 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,239 Speaker 5: I were to ask you about fighting Leon Edwards in 755 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,440 Speaker 5: his backyard at whatever hour of the night versus fighting 756 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:53,160 Speaker 5: in Montreal a little bit closer to Chicago and maybe 757 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,239 Speaker 5: a more normal hour, you're just the guy who shows up, 758 00:35:56,280 --> 00:35:59,719 Speaker 5: whether you've been fasting all day or not.

That is part of the main card 909 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,880 Speaker 5: coming up on pay per view. Also Valentina Chevchenko and 910 00:42:03,960 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 5: Minol Fuor as well. All right, going to get back 911 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:09,080 Speaker 5: to a few fight night highlights if I could, before 912 00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 5: we get to the great Raymond Peter Longo. So Jeremy 913 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 5: Lil Heathen Stevens is back in defeat, but he's back, man, 914 00:42:18,560 --> 00:42:20,920 Speaker 5: and he landed a lot of big uppercuts that Mason 915 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,319 Speaker 5: Jones had to respect. Mason Jones showed you that he 916 00:42:24,480 --> 00:42:28,120 Speaker 5: is absolutely UFC level. Dude's the man. I mean, However, 917 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 5: your scorecard was two to one three and l I 918 00:42:31,560 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 5: had a thirty to twenty seven for Mason Jones, who 919 00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:37,719 Speaker 5: who really I think, showed that he never should have 920 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 5: been outside the UFC. And Stevens valiant in defeat. What 921 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:42,040 Speaker 5: a way to kick off the main card there in Iowa. 922 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 7: That was an amazing fight. The crowd was going nuts. Obviously, 923 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:50,359 Speaker 7: you Jeremy is from that area. But Mason Jones, man, 924 00:42:50,400 --> 00:42:55,360 Speaker 7: he came to fight and I think it was impressive 925 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,719 Speaker 7: what he was doing on the feet. But the big 926 00:42:57,719 --> 00:43:00,200 Speaker 7: difference maker obviously in that fight was his ability to 927 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,040 Speaker 7: take the fight to the ground. Uh and hurt Jeremy there, 928 00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:07,279 Speaker 7: but uh, man, very very exciting fight. 929 00:43:07,320 --> 00:43:09,560 Speaker 5: Did that get Fight of the night?

Yeah, he's just a 943 00:43:41,960 --> 00:43:44,919 Speaker 7: really smart fighter who's not about really making a whole 944 00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,080 Speaker 7: lot of mistakes, and if he does, he finds a 945 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 7: way out of them really easily. 946 00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm glad I picked him. 947 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 7: He he just seems like he's, uh, he's there to win, man, 948 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,440 Speaker 7: He's he's all business, that kid, and and Marcos is 949 00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:57,839 Speaker 7: no joke. 950 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 5: Well, now he's gonna get the big fight.

Yeah. 970 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:51,320 Speaker 7: Absolutely, It's Smotherment's tough. I mean, he'll get in your face, 971 00:44:51,400 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 7: but serious City. You know, when I watched his fights, 972 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:58,880 Speaker 7: he just seemed really really skillful, and it's just seemed 973 00:44:58,880 --> 00:45:00,840 Speaker 7: like he was lacking a little bit of that comfort 974 00:45:00,920 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 7: level in the in the cage, but seemed like it 975 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:05,680 Speaker 7: was getting better each time out. And sure enough, it 976 00:45:05,719 --> 00:45:08,440 Speaker 7: was even better this time around here against Motherman. 977 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 5: Uh looked really really sharp. 978 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:13,319 Speaker 7: His kicking game was on point, his footwork looked good, 979 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:14,959 Speaker 7: his ground attacks were really good. 980 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:17,719 Speaker 5: I like this kid. Did you happen to see the 981 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 5: Yana Santos Misha Tate fight. It was the first fight 982 00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:21,360 Speaker 5: that I watched. 983 00:45:22,560 --> 00:45:25,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, I saw highlights of it. 984 00:45:25,480 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 5: Was it was it a super close fight? Was that 985 00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:28,640 Speaker 5: where people were booing? 986 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 3: Lo? 987 00:45:29,120 --> 00:45:32,400 Speaker 5: I saw that part what happened was because yeah, I 988 00:45:32,440 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 5: mean it wasn't the fight of the year. I mean, 989 00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 5: came out really hard and then had moments in round three, 990 00:45:39,880 --> 00:45:42,439 Speaker 5: but large Lee Santos was able to sort of cut 991 00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:45,400 Speaker 5: angles and outpoint her. But you know, I thought Misha 992 00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:47,439 Speaker 5: came out valiantly and it was just good to see 993 00:45:47,440 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 5: her back on the proven ground. Physically, I thought she 994 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:52,120 Speaker 5: looked good. But yeah, I thought Yana Santos deserved to win. 995 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:54,080 Speaker 5: You know, I was just curious if you had seen that, 996 00:45:54,200 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 5: just acknowledging the former champion.

Anakin Floor and Podcast presented by DraftKings. DraftKings. 1021 00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:19,400 Speaker 5: The crowd is yours. So I'd like to get a 1022 00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:21,800 Speaker 5: few thoughts on Corey Sandhagen from you if I could. 1023 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 5: I think a guy that is just easy for a 1024 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,120 Speaker 5: lot of the people embedded in this fight game to 1025 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,000 Speaker 5: root for and gets it done against the former flyweight 1026 00:47:30,120 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 5: champion Davison Figuretto Raymond. What'd you make of that look? 1027 00:47:34,200 --> 00:47:37,719 Speaker 3: I think Corey's always been one of the most talented 1028 00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:41,360 Speaker 3: guys in that division, and he remains one of the 1029 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,040 Speaker 3: most talented guys in that division. He could do everything. 1030 00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 3: I think he's had some sort of slips here and there, 1031 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:53,319 Speaker 3: but I love his attitude. I love that he perseveres 1032 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 3: through it and he keeps I believe getting better. I 1033 00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:58,759 Speaker 3: think trev is going to add a little bit of stability, 1034 00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:02,320 Speaker 3: maybe take away, uh, some of the craziest things he 1035 00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:04,080 Speaker 3: used to do all the time. I think, like the 1036 00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 3: flying knee at certain times is good, but could get 1037 00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:07,640 Speaker 3: you in trouble. 1038 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:08,400 Speaker 5: Uh. 1039 00:48:08,840 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 3: But I think he's got a good combination now and 1040 00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:14,239 Speaker 3: I think he seems like his head's in the right 1041 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:17,799 Speaker 3: spot and he definitely deserves a title shot for sure. 1042 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:20,560 Speaker 3: I think he's not He's one of the only guys 1043 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,399 Speaker 3: that hasn't fought for it yet. And he's right, he's 1044 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:27,120 Speaker 3: just right there. I think he's a great guy, and uh, 1045 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,959 Speaker 3: I wish the best for him. 1046 00:48:30,200 --> 00:48:31,839 Speaker 5: Right Uh did you see this bow? 1047 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:32,240 Speaker 6: Nickel? 1048 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:32,920 Speaker 5: Upset? 1049 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:40,520 Speaker 3: I got it? Let me tell you them. 1050 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:41,560 Speaker 9: Yeah. 1051 00:48:41,719 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 3: Uh, you know it's funny. I was in the gym 1052 00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,239 Speaker 3: and I'm told that we got a guy Gershan and 1053 00:48:47,640 --> 00:48:49,799 Speaker 3: I don't think this guy's ever missed on a fight. 1054 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 3: I mean, hats off to him. Shout out to Gershon 1055 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 3: because he's that might be the best handicap, right know. 1056 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 3: And he tells me before I go, who do you 1057 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 3: got in a Nickel fight? Because I like, you know, 1058 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 3: fucking around with him because I'm taking the Ritter. I go, really, 1059 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:07,120 Speaker 3: I go, that's a big that's a big step. He goes, Nah, 1060 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:08,960 Speaker 3: he's gonna do it. And man, he was right a 1061 00:49:08,960 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 3: guy go if he gets this right, I'm never going 1062 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 3: against him again. But uh, hats off the ridder. You know, 1063 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 3: it's a tough guy. Man. I didn't. I mean I 1064 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:21,680 Speaker 3: was really high on bone nickel. Man. I I don't 1065 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 3: know what I was looking at, but that didn't look good. 1066 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:30,799 Speaker 3: That looked like a guy that was never really hit before. Like, 1067 00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:33,120 Speaker 3: you know, it just didn't hit man, it just didn't 1068 00:49:33,160 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 3: look good. I don't know. It was a really bad 1069 00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 3: optic for me. But I still he's pretty brutal though, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, 1070 00:49:39,719 --> 00:49:43,520 Speaker 3: well you're not used to you know. I think you know, 1071 00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:45,919 Speaker 3: I was talking to another kid at the Jimmy. He's 1072 00:49:45,960 --> 00:49:49,920 Speaker 3: like a good competitor. But competing and fighting is two 1073 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:54,560 Speaker 3: huge differences, man. Like it's it's it goes back to 1074 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,440 Speaker 3: you know, you're a black belt until you get punched 1075 00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:58,160 Speaker 3: in the face and you're a blue belt. I mean, 1076 00:49:58,160 --> 00:50:02,280 Speaker 3: you gotta it's it's a fight, man, and it's really 1077 00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:05,399 Speaker 3: not a competition. It's a fucking fistfight. You know. It's 1078 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,920 Speaker 3: got some rules, But at the end of the day, man, 1079 00:50:08,000 --> 00:50:09,960 Speaker 3: you better be able to go through fire if you 1080 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:14,000 Speaker 3: have to. And he didn't. Uh, he didn't pass that test. 1081 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,319 Speaker 5: Man. And you know, his longtime roommate, fellow Penn State 1082 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,640 Speaker 5: wrestler Anthony Kassar, started out as a pro fighter and 1083 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:24,200 Speaker 5: went into real estate. And I'm not comparing their resumes 1084 00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:29,680 Speaker 5: or anything necessarily, right, But I asked Kenny earlier, right, like, 1085 00:50:29,719 --> 00:50:32,560 Speaker 5: does he still think that bon Nickel right with this 1086 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,120 Speaker 5: result now as part of the equation, will one day 1087 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:36,799 Speaker 5: still fight for the title? I was going to ask 1088 00:50:36,840 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 5: our listeners like, do you think bon Nickel will still 1089 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,760 Speaker 5: get to the top five if you thought so before, 1090 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:45,480 Speaker 5: or maybe fight for the title. And you know, I'm 1091 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,160 Speaker 5: not trying to get too far ahead of ourselves, but 1092 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 5: there's a lot of work to be done now to 1093 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:52,400 Speaker 5: think about him challenging say number eleven in the world, 1094 00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:53,200 Speaker 5: Brendan Allen. 1095 00:50:53,280 --> 00:50:56,920 Speaker 3: In my opinion, yeah, well he's going to have to 1096 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 3: start if he wants to do it. I'd actually have 1097 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 3: to listen to him talk to see which direction he's 1098 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:07,040 Speaker 3: going in. But I mean, there's a million things to 1099 00:51:07,080 --> 00:51:10,000 Speaker 3: correct at this point, so he could I mean, he's 1100 00:51:10,040 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 3: got the chops. I mean, once you wrestle like that 1101 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,640 Speaker 3: at that level, you're at least in tune with training 1102 00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,680 Speaker 3: hard and going through some sort of adversity. So I 1103 00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:20,959 Speaker 3: think it'll be good. I mean, I can only kind 1104 00:51:20,960 --> 00:51:23,200 Speaker 3: of compare it to Wideman, but man, Whiteman fought for 1105 00:51:23,239 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 3: that title with like nine to ten fights. He wanted 1106 00:51:25,480 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 3: to fight. Man, I used to throw him in with boxes. 1107 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,040 Speaker 3: I mean, he knew what it was like to get 1108 00:51:30,200 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 3: beat up, like not not beat up, but he was 1109 00:51:32,440 --> 00:51:35,800 Speaker 3: in the frying pan like I wasn't gonna let that happen, 1110 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,279 Speaker 3: you know, Like I don't know, man, like he yeah, 1111 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 3: he was cutting weight. He was making thirty pounds in 1112 00:51:42,200 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 3: a week. I mean, he just tortured himself. But he 1113 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:46,399 Speaker 3: wanted it that bad. And I don't know if I'm 1114 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 3: seeing that now in bow Nickel, And I know it's 1115 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:53,720 Speaker 3: hindsight is twenty twenty because I said this is a 1116 00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:56,240 Speaker 3: while ago. I thought he could afford for the title whenever. 1117 00:51:56,360 --> 00:52:00,440 Speaker 3: But man, I'm kind of backtracking now. I don't know. 1118 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 3: I hope I hope he turns it around, and I 1119 00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:05,400 Speaker 3: hope he I don't know what. I hope he gets 1120 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 3: back in there. And you know, proves himself, but you 1121 00:52:08,719 --> 00:52:11,200 Speaker 3: gotta want It's a fucking fight, man, I don't know 1122 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 3: how else to put it. Like it's well, it just 1123 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:16,840 Speaker 3: looked like a guy thinking he was going to compete. 1124 00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 3: All of a sudden, the guy was founding, you know 1125 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:23,160 Speaker 3: what I mean, Like he just didn't react the right way, 1126 00:52:23,239 --> 00:52:25,400 Speaker 3: you sort of even before the fight was stopped. I'm like, 1127 00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,360 Speaker 3: is that possible? Is he is he kind of turning 1128 00:52:28,480 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: his back as he wins it? I don't know, man, 1129 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:34,239 Speaker 3: So he's gotta h I'd love to hear his take 1130 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:34,600 Speaker 3: on it. 1131 00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 5: You know, Yeah, I was gonna let kenn of get 1132 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 5: in here. I didn't know if you were sort of 1133 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 5: chopping at the bit to say something, But yeah, yes, 1134 00:52:42,600 --> 00:52:45,000 Speaker 5: I sort of want to give him a couple of months, right, 1135 00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:49,080 Speaker 5: And he has a great support system and really not 1136 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:51,839 Speaker 5: just good coaches, but coaches who have done it at 1137 00:52:51,840 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 5: the elite level, right, Thiago Alvez, Mike Brown. So I 1138 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 5: think he's got the right support system. Dan Lambert American 1139 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,600 Speaker 5: top team. But when Ray says they're myria issues, that 1140 00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,080 Speaker 5: is not loss on on me. Right, Like you could 1141 00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:06,560 Speaker 5: talk about sort of you know, gas maintenance, right in 1142 00:53:06,680 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 5: terms of an angle of all of this when you're 1143 00:53:09,160 --> 00:53:14,319 Speaker 5: absorbing punishment and you know, like total cardiovascular abandonment, so 1144 00:53:14,400 --> 00:53:17,560 Speaker 5: many wayward moments in this fight. Like I understand the 1145 00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:20,040 Speaker 5: value of a loss and how a setback can be 1146 00:53:20,080 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 5: a propellant, but my gosh, I mean I didn't see 1147 00:53:23,719 --> 00:53:25,920 Speaker 5: it live. I watched it after the fact, and it 1148 00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:26,959 Speaker 5: was worse than I thought. 1149 00:53:27,280 --> 00:53:30,560 Speaker 7: I wonder, ray to your point, how often he actually 1150 00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 7: goes to like att HQ in Florida to train? You know, 1151 00:53:35,239 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 7: I know he does his own training in a separate 1152 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 7: do you know, John of how much? 1153 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 5: Yeah here with other guys, great question. So he does, 1154 00:53:42,239 --> 00:53:44,640 Speaker 5: but the time is split, and maybe that is something 1155 00:53:44,640 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 5: that he would actually consider, would be moving to Florida 1156 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:48,960 Speaker 5: full time, you know. 1157 00:53:49,120 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 3: But in Florida full time. 1158 00:53:51,480 --> 00:53:54,520 Speaker 5: Well, what's time? I think he still lives in Pennsylvania. 1159 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:59,319 Speaker 5: So you know, hey, you Northeastern is right? I mean, 1160 00:53:59,440 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 5: Kenny and I about them, but you know. 1161 00:54:01,360 --> 00:54:04,440 Speaker 6: You Ken, Yeah, Kenny, what was your take on that? 1162 00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,359 Speaker 7: So I I think I think he can get back there, 1163 00:54:08,520 --> 00:54:12,680 Speaker 7: you know, I think that he's still you know, especially 1164 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,759 Speaker 7: compared to a guy like RDR. It doesn't have anywhere 1165 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 7: close to the experience that that guy has, so I think, 1166 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 7: you know, physically he was showing those telltale signs that 1167 00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 7: he was hurt. I think those things can be rectified 1168 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 7: with time, hopefully. I think he's tough enough. I think 1169 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:31,920 Speaker 7: he knows how to come back from adversity, so I 1170 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 7: think he'll be fine. But how much other things do 1171 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:36,960 Speaker 7: we not know about bow Nickel? 1172 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 5: Like what else? What else don't we know? 1173 00:54:40,000 --> 00:54:41,400 Speaker 6: You know, it's very early. 1174 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,640 Speaker 7: So again, this was his first big set back, his 1175 00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,959 Speaker 7: first real fight, and we'll see what he takes next. 1176 00:54:48,000 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean, my thing always is and always 1177 00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 3: will be. You got to find what I saw last 1178 00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:54,640 Speaker 3: night that has to be found out in the gym 1179 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 3: and corrected before a fight like that. It's just you know, 1180 00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,880 Speaker 3: you know, I don't want to keep bringing Chris up. 1181 00:55:01,920 --> 00:55:04,279 Speaker 3: I mean, I love the guy so but even like 1182 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:06,640 Speaker 3: when he was first starting out Widen, I couldn't get 1183 00:55:06,680 --> 00:55:10,280 Speaker 3: him a fight like the Athletic Commission turned down fight 1184 00:55:10,480 --> 00:55:14,080 Speaker 3: after fight after fighters of his wrestling chops. You know, 1185 00:55:14,239 --> 00:55:17,759 Speaker 3: like I'm saying, like I almost want to say, a 1186 00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,759 Speaker 3: guy like de Rita, he would have been in the 1187 00:55:19,840 --> 00:55:22,600 Speaker 3: same He would have probably the Athletic Commission wuldn't even 1188 00:55:22,600 --> 00:55:25,799 Speaker 3: allowed that fight. So it's not like he doesn't have 1189 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:29,680 Speaker 3: that experience. But when you have the wrestling experience he has, 1190 00:55:30,600 --> 00:55:33,920 Speaker 3: I don't believe it takes that much to fine tune 1191 00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,680 Speaker 3: the other stuff, like, you know what I mean, Like, 1192 00:55:35,880 --> 00:55:38,319 Speaker 3: I don't know that was That's my experience. I mean, 1193 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:41,759 Speaker 3: and I've taken a lot of wrestlers and watched them 1194 00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:44,479 Speaker 3: grow through through stuff. But it's got to be done 1195 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:47,120 Speaker 3: the right way. And I don't know. I mean, I 1196 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,759 Speaker 3: hope he's all right. I'm a big fan either way, 1197 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:53,120 Speaker 3: but I thought what I saw that night was just 1198 00:55:53,200 --> 00:55:55,440 Speaker 3: wasn't a good look optically, was horrible. 1199 00:55:55,520 --> 00:56:01,400 Speaker 5: Matter of fact, Yeah, No, I think that's prey put 1200 00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:04,839 Speaker 5: and it's interesting two schools of thought and maybe not 1201 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 5: just too, because there are prongs to it, right, but 1202 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:10,759 Speaker 5: more developmental time. If I'm b nickel, I'm like, how 1203 00:56:10,800 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 5: soon can I get that motherfucker? It tastes out my 1204 00:56:13,000 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 5: mouth and there's only one place that I can do that, right, 1205 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 5: And I'm saying I'm not saying, you know, he needs 1206 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:20,839 Speaker 5: to get back there in six weeks, but I'd rather 1207 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:24,719 Speaker 5: be twelve to fourteen than another six months, right, Say 1208 00:56:24,760 --> 00:56:28,560 Speaker 5: what you want about Kamzat Chimayev's relative inactivity for his career, 1209 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:31,520 Speaker 5: but he thought twice in ten days, and he's about it, 1210 00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:34,640 Speaker 5: you know, And I'm suggesting Bo's about it. If I'm him, 1211 00:56:34,680 --> 00:56:37,480 Speaker 5: I'm saying, Statista, let's get a fucking fight and fucking 1212 00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:38,880 Speaker 5: regain some confidence, you know. 1213 00:56:39,000 --> 00:56:41,759 Speaker 3: I mean the other one observation I want to make, Kenny, 1214 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,960 Speaker 3: I don't know if if you'll agree in that. I 1215 00:56:45,040 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 3: mean a kind of look tiny in the computing. 1216 00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 7: Literally just looking up their sizes, because that's the thing. 1217 00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,719 Speaker 5: It was right near to Ritter just huge or his 1218 00:56:53,760 --> 00:56:57,200 Speaker 5: Bonnickel small for the division has had success up you know. 1219 00:56:57,600 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm just saying, is one seventy possibility? Do we 1220 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:02,880 Speaker 3: know what he wrestled at in college? 1221 00:57:04,160 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 5: Which case that for you? But I don't, I don't see. 1222 00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:07,520 Speaker 8: I don't think it. 1223 00:57:08,920 --> 00:57:12,799 Speaker 5: No, I thought it was like two or something. Yeah, 1224 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 5: I just feel like it'd be tough. There's yeah, he's 1225 00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:16,560 Speaker 5: not going to push. 1226 00:57:16,320 --> 00:57:20,560 Speaker 3: The probably une seventy five pound if I had that division. 1227 00:57:20,600 --> 00:57:22,440 Speaker 3: Maybe I just think he looked. 1228 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:27,520 Speaker 5: Seventy four, eighty four and ninety seven in college free 1229 00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:30,240 Speaker 5: time NCAA champion he won titles at seventy four, eighty four, 1230 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:34,960 Speaker 5: and ninety seven from twenty seventeen to twenty nineteen. Thank you, Cody. 1231 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:37,560 Speaker 5: So but you know, five years or so into the 1232 00:57:37,640 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 5: MMA developmental game, right you know, not a newcomer, right. So, 1233 00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 5: but no, I believe in the athlete as much as 1234 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,040 Speaker 5: Kenny does, to be sure. I just think that's why 1235 00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 5: this is such an interesting setback to uh to sort 1236 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:54,720 Speaker 5: of analysts. All right, Yeah, a few other things I 1237 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:56,680 Speaker 5: would like to get to with Raymond if I could. 1238 00:57:56,720 --> 00:57:59,240 Speaker 5: I don't know if there were any performances of note 1239 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 5: that you wanted to talk about. I mean, Deritter, I 1240 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 5: think can really do some big things here and can 1241 00:58:04,560 --> 00:58:08,320 Speaker 5: potentially be fast tracked big win for d Rod Jillian Robertson. 1242 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:11,120 Speaker 5: Unless you got anything on those, I'd kind of like 1243 00:58:11,160 --> 00:58:13,640 Speaker 5: to spend it forward to USC three fifteen with your Raymond. 1244 00:58:14,320 --> 00:58:15,120 Speaker 1: Uh. 1245 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:18,320 Speaker 3: I think that Jillian Robinson fight it was, Yeah, she's 1246 00:58:18,360 --> 00:58:20,520 Speaker 3: looking really good and she's still young, which I think 1247 00:58:20,640 --> 00:58:23,800 Speaker 3: is phenomenal. So hats off to Dean Thomas. I think 1248 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 3: he's doing a great job with her. 1249 00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:26,439 Speaker 8: Uh. 1250 00:58:26,600 --> 00:58:29,800 Speaker 3: I thought the Jeremy Stevens fight the first two rounds 1251 00:58:29,920 --> 00:58:33,240 Speaker 3: was total insanity, and that's a fight everybody has to 1252 00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:36,360 Speaker 3: like because it wasn't two sloppy guys beating the crap 1253 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:39,120 Speaker 3: out of each other. There was a lot of technical 1254 00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 3: stuff going on, and then it was just that excites me, 1255 00:58:43,520 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 3: that type of fight. 1256 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:45,240 Speaker 5: That was a fun fight. 1257 00:58:45,600 --> 00:58:47,040 Speaker 3: That's a fun fight, man. 1258 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:53,320 Speaker 5: All right. So you know you are very verbose, except 1259 00:58:53,320 --> 00:58:56,240 Speaker 5: when it comes time to make a prediction. So I'm 1260 00:58:56,240 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 5: not going to ask you like your social media team does, 1261 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 5: to make a predict on Blao Muhammad versus Jack Dela Matdelena. 1262 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna ask you where you think this fight 1263 00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:09,080 Speaker 5: will be contested for the most part, in the striking 1264 00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 5: realm or in the grappling realm. Is that a fair question, that's. 1265 00:59:13,640 --> 00:59:18,000 Speaker 3: A fair question. I would say it'll be contested more 1266 00:59:18,080 --> 00:59:20,440 Speaker 3: on the floor than it will be standing up. 1267 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,120 Speaker 5: So that seems like a lean to blow Muhamma. 1268 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:25,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's a lean. 1269 00:59:25,800 --> 00:59:30,120 Speaker 5: Yeah. So, Kenny and I have watched a lot of 1270 00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:32,360 Speaker 5: film and the lead up to this fight, specifically on 1271 00:59:32,400 --> 00:59:36,000 Speaker 5: the Jack Dela Madelena side, and he's a very instinctual, 1272 00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 5: fluid fighter. But I think sometimes for people, maybe you 1273 00:59:40,000 --> 00:59:43,400 Speaker 5: look at a result against Basil Jfez or you know, 1274 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 5: certain results that make you wonder how he might deal 1275 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,240 Speaker 5: with this particular stylistic challenge. How do you feel like 1276 00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:50,760 Speaker 5: they match up on the feet though. 1277 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:57,520 Speaker 3: I think you'll disagree with a big advantage to Jack Delamaloy. 1278 00:59:57,680 --> 01:00:00,560 Speaker 5: Why Why? Because I'm not an objective of so I 1279 01:00:00,600 --> 01:00:04,800 Speaker 5: will disagree with that one. No wonder will is entrusting 1280 01:00:04,840 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 5: me with calling the fight on paper? 1281 01:00:09,120 --> 01:00:12,520 Speaker 3: What I wouldn't want to be you? I'll tell you that, 1282 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:15,000 Speaker 3: I swear I'm not. I wouldn't want to be you. 1283 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,080 Speaker 5: When we launched, remember the show with Balal and my 1284 01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:24,360 Speaker 5: twin brother on the Anakin Floorian podcast YouTube channel, BLAU 1285 01:00:24,600 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 5: was unranked number probably twenty seven in the world. You 1286 01:00:28,360 --> 01:00:30,720 Speaker 5: look it off like you're bored. I'm just saying no. 1287 01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:32,880 Speaker 5: I mean I've gone to great lengths to Uh. I 1288 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:35,240 Speaker 5: got my one more Sleep Australia T shirt packed with 1289 01:00:35,280 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 5: me to wear the way and to support Jack. 1290 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:37,240 Speaker 3: No. 1291 01:00:37,840 --> 01:00:40,440 Speaker 5: I I go to great lengths to support all of 1292 01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 5: these athletes. But I assure you, if you were to 1293 01:00:42,240 --> 01:00:45,960 Speaker 5: ask Tim Simpson, his manager, or Jack if they felt bias, uh, 1294 01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 5: they wouldn't feel the way you do. But we'll see 1295 01:00:49,240 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 5: if we call it do see, we call it down 1296 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 5: the middle thought brow. 1297 01:00:56,840 --> 01:01:00,240 Speaker 3: So you'll John, you'll always do the right thing, rust 1298 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:00,520 Speaker 3: in you. 1299 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:05,560 Speaker 5: But I can suggest to you that Blal doesn't get 1300 01:01:05,640 --> 01:01:08,640 Speaker 5: credit for his striking, and his striking is underrated, all 1301 01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:11,800 Speaker 5: while saying that's not nearly as layered as Jack right 1302 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:13,280 Speaker 5: the foot right for example. 1303 01:01:13,440 --> 01:01:17,200 Speaker 3: Right. Look, what Bilaal's got going for him is they 1304 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,400 Speaker 3: are gonna be fearful of his wrestling, which obviously opens 1305 01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:23,040 Speaker 3: up your hands. So because of that, I think he 1306 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 3: could take certain liberties and and he'll be fine. Uh 1307 01:01:27,280 --> 01:01:29,920 Speaker 3: but if it just was contested on the feet and 1308 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 3: there was no takedowns involved, I'm saying Jack Medalina would 1309 01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 3: have a big advantage on him. You know, but when 1310 01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:40,440 Speaker 3: you blend everything together, which is MMA, it's not going 1311 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:42,520 Speaker 3: to be that white of a disparagey, I don't think. 1312 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:46,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, all right, comine, event, who do you believe his 1313 01:01:46,960 --> 01:01:51,240 Speaker 5: favor between Valentina Chevchenko and the frenchwoman man all the 1314 01:01:51,280 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 5: beast Philo chef Chenko is not the favorite. And every 1315 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:01,240 Speaker 5: time I go on a DraftKings Sportsbooks becomes a bigger underdog. 1316 01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:01,960 Speaker 5: Your thoughts on that? 1317 01:02:02,800 --> 01:02:03,120 Speaker 6: Wow? 1318 01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:10,560 Speaker 3: Uh, Man, I don't know what. I like the other girl. 1319 01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 3: She's long, little look, would you know, got good range? 1320 01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:20,200 Speaker 3: But I think she just Shenko's too much for her. 1321 01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:24,640 Speaker 5: Okay, So you're advising our listenership and viewership to maybe 1322 01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:29,919 Speaker 5: look at Valentina Schevchenko at wait for it, plus one 1323 01:02:30,080 --> 01:02:32,760 Speaker 5: thirty is the live number on Draftking sports Book. 1324 01:02:32,800 --> 01:02:33,000 Speaker 6: Now. 1325 01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 5: When I first sent that line to Kenny, she was 1326 01:02:35,160 --> 01:02:37,800 Speaker 5: like plus one oh two or so. Now she's plus 1327 01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:41,200 Speaker 5: one thirty so and even better number than before. 1328 01:02:41,320 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 3: Ray, I like the number. 1329 01:02:44,760 --> 01:02:48,120 Speaker 5: Which champion are you more confident in? Valentina Chevchenko or 1330 01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 5: Balao Muhammad. 1331 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 3: Oh that's a good question, thanks, Ray. But I think 1332 01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 3: Balal because I think Balal still out to prove something 1333 01:03:01,520 --> 01:03:03,600 Speaker 3: and he's still up and coming. She's been there, done 1334 01:03:03,640 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 3: that loss, came back, you know. I hope her reasons 1335 01:03:07,240 --> 01:03:09,560 Speaker 3: for fighting are the same day what six fights ago. 1336 01:03:09,640 --> 01:03:11,840 Speaker 3: That's the only thing I'm uncertain of, But I think 1337 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 3: but Lal's still on the come up, you know what 1338 01:03:14,360 --> 01:03:17,240 Speaker 3: I mean, And he's got a lot a lot more 1339 01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:19,400 Speaker 3: to give, and I think that's the difference. So I'd 1340 01:03:19,400 --> 01:03:21,840 Speaker 3: say I'd feel more comfortable with him than with her. 1341 01:03:23,040 --> 01:03:25,520 Speaker 5: Any news on the Al Jamain Sterling front before we 1342 01:03:25,600 --> 01:03:26,840 Speaker 5: get to some would you rathers? 1343 01:03:28,320 --> 01:03:31,080 Speaker 3: No, nothing, nothing at all. I haven't even talked to him. 1344 01:03:31,120 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 3: I saw, I saw he was in Bally, I commented 1345 01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:37,000 Speaker 3: a little bit. But he looks like he's he looks 1346 01:03:37,040 --> 01:03:40,320 Speaker 3: like he's getting his working. He's funny man, he's a 1347 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:43,760 Speaker 3: different cat man. He's I think he's really loving life 1348 01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:45,080 Speaker 3: and he's doing great. 1349 01:03:45,200 --> 01:03:49,479 Speaker 5: Yeah wait a second, your gym manager, longtime anaking flooring 1350 01:03:49,520 --> 01:03:54,160 Speaker 5: podcast supporter Steve Lee.

But for some reason, I'm stubborn. 1613 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:55,280 Speaker 6: I can't when I see Jessica and Jodge at plus 1614 01:16:55,280 --> 01:16:57,360 Speaker 6: two something, you know what is it? Plus two thirty? 1615 01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:59,559 Speaker 6: Right now on DraftKings, I can't ignore that. I gotta 1616 01:16:59,600 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 6: go with experience. I gotta go with the power of Andrage. 1617 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:05,000 Speaker 6: I know we're in Canada and the crowd's gonna behind Jasmine, 1618 01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:06,559 Speaker 6: and she's on a hot roll right now. This might 1619 01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:09,200 Speaker 6: be a dumb pick, but Jessica and Draws is gonna 1620 01:17:09,200 --> 01:17:12,160 Speaker 6: get my pick. Ange'll get my money here. Experience and 1621 01:17:12,200 --> 01:17:14,120 Speaker 6: power really really trumps a lot of the things that 1622 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 6: Jazzmine has going for right now. So I'm a sucker 1623 01:17:16,960 --> 01:17:19,200 Speaker 6: for it. But give me Jessica Andros. 1624 01:17:18,920 --> 01:17:21,920 Speaker 5: Andrage seventeen and eleven in the UFC can Flow. She's 1625 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:25,440 Speaker 5: still only thirty three. Made her debut in twenty thirteen, 1626 01:17:26,000 --> 01:17:29,439 Speaker 5: the first year women were permitted to compete in the UFC. 1627 01:17:29,600 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 5: She won the straweight title in twenty nineteen. Seems like 1628 01:17:32,720 --> 01:17:36,040 Speaker 5: it's gonna be flyweight for now for andraj comes in 1629 01:17:36,120 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 5: having won two of her last three year. Thoughts on 1630 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,439 Speaker 5: her here plus two thirty against Jazz Divisias. Yeah, I 1631 01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 5: thought BP did a great breakdown. 1632 01:17:42,479 --> 01:17:46,600 Speaker 7: You know, I don't think jazz hands Jasmine jazz a divisius. 1633 01:17:46,920 --> 01:17:48,519 Speaker 6: Jazz divicious? Is that what it is? 1634 01:17:48,840 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 5: Jazz divisius. We've done it so many times on the 1635 01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:54,720 Speaker 5: pastage of the week. It looks nothing like, nothing like 1636 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:57,000 Speaker 5: just suit of visious. 1637 01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:58,000 Speaker 6: I like jazz hands. 1638 01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:00,680 Speaker 5: That's great, that is good. If I can drop a 1639 01:18:00,760 --> 01:18:02,960 Speaker 5: jazz hands, is that new for today? We're gonna drop 1640 01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:06,880 Speaker 5: a jazz hands on pay per view, Dude, I like 1641 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:09,120 Speaker 5: jazz hands man. I think she's gonna be the better 1642 01:18:09,160 --> 01:18:10,519 Speaker 5: grappling here, but she does. 1643 01:18:10,360 --> 01:18:12,439 Speaker 7: Have to worry about the power on the feet though 1644 01:18:12,439 --> 01:18:15,880 Speaker 7: from morage, I think that that that is a real threat. 1645 01:18:16,479 --> 01:18:18,519 Speaker 7: But I think her ability to get to that clinch, 1646 01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:22,280 Speaker 7: especially if she's if she finds success early on, I 1647 01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:24,920 Speaker 7: like her chances that much better. If Androge gets off 1648 01:18:24,960 --> 01:18:27,519 Speaker 7: to a good start, it could go downhill pretty pretty 1649 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:29,520 Speaker 7: fast for Jazz Divicious. 1650 01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:30,639 Speaker 5: Did I say that correctly? 1651 01:18:30,800 --> 01:18:31,200 Speaker 6: Anyway? 1652 01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:32,840 Speaker 5: Jazz hands, I like jazz hands. 1653 01:18:33,479 --> 01:18:35,120 Speaker 7: Put money on jazz hands now, I don't know if 1654 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:36,840 Speaker 7: I'm gonna put money on jazz hands, but I like 1655 01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:37,519 Speaker 7: jazz hands. 1656 01:18:37,640 --> 01:18:39,519 Speaker 5: I like saying jazze. 1657 01:18:39,560 --> 01:18:41,200 Speaker 6: I like hearing you say I like it. 1658 01:18:41,560 --> 01:18:45,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean forget objectivity for me.

You're not far off there, miket Cleveland's 1682 01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:54,920 Speaker 6: dumb Listen. I I love this fight. This fight is 1683 01:19:55,080 --> 01:19:56,200 Speaker 6: tough to pick. 1684 01:19:56,200 --> 01:19:56,240 Speaker 3: It. 1685 01:19:56,320 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 6: Willly was hard because I love Chuck Buffalo, who I 1686 01:19:58,600 --> 01:20:01,040 Speaker 6: thought had the best nickname in the so jazz hands 1687 01:20:01,040 --> 01:20:03,639 Speaker 6: got introduced to me. So now he's playing for second here. 1688 01:20:03,680 --> 01:20:06,360 Speaker 6: But he's a gritty, grimy dude. He got you know, 1689 01:20:06,400 --> 01:20:09,400 Speaker 6: he got put down. He got clipped bad and put 1690 01:20:09,439 --> 01:20:11,560 Speaker 6: down by college protests with that body shot. It was 1691 01:20:11,560 --> 01:20:13,880 Speaker 6: absolutely nasty. But he rebound it well and look good 1692 01:20:14,160 --> 01:20:16,479 Speaker 6: against Ellensburger. And this is a dude who's nails in there. 1693 01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:18,759 Speaker 6: He really is. He goes after it and Mike Mullatt 1694 01:20:18,920 --> 01:20:21,479 Speaker 6: is really really pretty. I'll get all these first round finishes. 1695 01:20:21,520 --> 01:20:24,360 Speaker 6: Then he runs into Neil Magni, which he looked dominated, 1696 01:20:24,400 --> 01:20:26,559 Speaker 6: but he got magnet right. It was a third round. 1697 01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:29,439 Speaker 6: He slowed down and that's what happens. We're not prepared 1698 01:20:29,439 --> 01:20:31,519 Speaker 6: for that. But then he rebound it well and win 1699 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:34,280 Speaker 6: a hard three his last amount and gotta win over 1700 01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:37,080 Speaker 6: Trevn Giles, who again is a solid, solid guy, and 1701 01:20:37,160 --> 01:20:39,479 Speaker 6: get a good win over I like Malat here. You know, 1702 01:20:39,520 --> 01:20:41,400 Speaker 6: this is a really tough fight from men pick because 1703 01:20:41,520 --> 01:20:43,560 Speaker 6: I love the number on Chuck Buffalo, but Malat I 1704 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:45,880 Speaker 6: think's gonna have the crowd. I do think he's really 1705 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:47,960 Speaker 6: good he has good skills, and if you clean up 1706 01:20:47,960 --> 01:20:49,640 Speaker 6: that cardion and you really mix in the cardio with 1707 01:20:49,640 --> 01:20:52,120 Speaker 6: the experience with those skills that he has. Because he's 1708 01:20:52,200 --> 01:20:54,320 Speaker 6: dangerous on the ground and on the feet, that could 1709 01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:55,800 Speaker 6: be a problem for a guy like Buffalo, who I 1710 01:20:55,840 --> 01:20:58,120 Speaker 6: think is a guy that's just gonna kind of tough 1711 01:20:58,160 --> 01:21:00,080 Speaker 6: through some things here. And I think the technique is 1712 01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:02,080 Speaker 6: going to show out for Mike Malott. So I like 1713 01:21:02,120 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 6: Mike Mallott, even though the numbers a little chunky for me, 1714 01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:06,799 Speaker 6: I'll go to the Canadian nicely done. 1715 01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:10,919 Speaker 5: I like he's as a guy like Buffalo, right shots 1716 01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:13,600 Speaker 5: the chuck like Buffalo's his surname. Yeah, there's not a 1717 01:21:13,600 --> 01:21:17,400 Speaker 5: better nickname than Chuck Buffalo. Good Charles Radkey Canny plus 1718 01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:19,680 Speaker 5: one eighty five. Perhaps some intrigue there or are you 1719 01:21:19,720 --> 01:21:22,520 Speaker 5: going with a local so to speak? And Mike Mallott. 1720 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,240 Speaker 6: I think there's intrigue there. 1721 01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:27,519 Speaker 7: I think Radkey is a very slick striker when he's 1722 01:21:27,520 --> 01:21:30,599 Speaker 7: on his game. Man, I think he carries the power, 1723 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:32,680 Speaker 7: carries the technique to be able to take someone like 1724 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:36,920 Speaker 7: Mike Mallott out. But you know, Mike, if he gets 1725 01:21:36,920 --> 01:21:39,120 Speaker 7: off to a good start, is able to establish the range. 1726 01:21:39,120 --> 01:21:42,000 Speaker 7: If he's able to back up Charles, I think that 1727 01:21:42,080 --> 01:21:44,800 Speaker 7: he could definitely win this fight, not only with uh, 1728 01:21:44,840 --> 01:21:47,519 Speaker 7: you know, some selective striking, but also with his ground game. 1729 01:21:47,560 --> 01:21:50,360 Speaker 7: I think that's where he can really uh you know, 1730 01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:53,400 Speaker 7: get the better of Radkey here. I don't think it's 1731 01:21:53,400 --> 01:21:54,960 Speaker 7: gonna be easy for him to take him to take 1732 01:21:55,000 --> 01:21:58,160 Speaker 7: him down. I also think sometimes Mike gets caught trading 1733 01:21:58,200 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 7: and and and tries to out tough guys sometimes, which 1734 01:22:01,400 --> 01:22:03,960 Speaker 7: may not go well against someone like rad Kiet. I 1735 01:22:04,000 --> 01:22:06,400 Speaker 7: don't know if it's worth putting money on this, but 1736 01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 7: I'm gonna go with Radke here. 1737 01:22:09,120 --> 01:22:12,599 Speaker 5: Radke also a jiu jitsu black belt. Incidentally, Yeah, he's 1738 01:22:12,600 --> 01:22:15,920 Speaker 5: got powers, got an attitude, only blemish in the UFC 1739 01:22:16,000 --> 01:22:19,280 Speaker 5: to Carlos protests. We'll see if he can ovoid a 1740 01:22:19,320 --> 01:22:22,200 Speaker 5: second UFC loss against ma Loot. All Right, main card 1741 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:26,040 Speaker 5: opener is still TBD. It was gonna be Ben was 1742 01:22:26,200 --> 01:22:29,840 Speaker 5: Anthony versus Joel Alvarez. We're waiting on a potential replacement 1743 01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 5: for Alvarez. So got four pay per view main card 1744 01:22:32,600 --> 01:22:35,160 Speaker 5: for the Fellows to dissect for you today, first of 1745 01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:39,160 Speaker 5: which comes your way in the women's flyweight division. Moving 1746 01:22:39,240 --> 01:22:41,680 Speaker 5: night in this division title of course gonna be on 1747 01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:44,080 Speaker 5: the line later on this night. This one Briy the 1748 01:22:44,080 --> 01:22:47,000 Speaker 5: shrieking to tell youa Silva minus two eighteen against the 1749 01:22:47,000 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 5: former champ, a Lexa Grosso plus one eighty. 1750 01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:51,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, I actually really liked his fight. For Grosso, I 1751 01:22:51,479 --> 01:22:53,080 Speaker 6: was surprised that she was this kind of big of 1752 01:22:53,080 --> 01:22:54,960 Speaker 6: a dog. I know Silva is on a run right 1753 01:22:55,000 --> 01:22:58,680 Speaker 6: now and she's looked fantastic, but Grosso's really only her 1754 01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 6: last losses against the team, right and then before that 1755 01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:03,640 Speaker 6: she beat the champs a split decision before that, and 1756 01:23:03,680 --> 01:23:06,400 Speaker 6: then she got clean, clean swept the last time out. However, 1757 01:23:06,720 --> 01:23:09,200 Speaker 6: a lot of those were happening because of grappling. Jeff 1758 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:11,840 Speaker 6: Tanko really grapplerr put her on her back and just 1759 01:23:11,880 --> 01:23:14,840 Speaker 6: shut down Grasso. Grosso is a good grappler when she's 1760 01:23:14,880 --> 01:23:16,840 Speaker 6: on top, but she's also a very good striker. Her 1761 01:23:16,840 --> 01:23:20,080 Speaker 6: boxing is pretty clean. Silva's gonna wanna want to want 1762 01:23:20,080 --> 01:23:22,479 Speaker 6: to strike with with Grosso here, so I think it's 1763 01:23:22,479 --> 01:23:24,320 Speaker 6: gonna kind of wipe out the grappling. I think both 1764 01:23:24,360 --> 01:23:26,320 Speaker 6: these females are gonna go at it on the feet 1765 01:23:26,560 --> 01:23:28,839 Speaker 6: and with Grosso giving the plus money. Having the experience 1766 01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:31,120 Speaker 6: of being a former champion, so Tenco's fighting in the card, 1767 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 6: She's motivated to want to get back there seeing you 1768 01:23:33,479 --> 01:23:35,800 Speaker 6: know what's gonna happen. I like Grosslo. I think this 1769 01:23:35,920 --> 01:23:38,519 Speaker 6: is a proper push up for Silva. I love the 1770 01:23:38,560 --> 01:23:41,040 Speaker 6: matchmaking in this fight. I just think Grosso is gonna 1771 01:23:41,040 --> 01:23:42,519 Speaker 6: have the edge on the feet. I think she's gonna 1772 01:23:42,560 --> 01:23:44,320 Speaker 6: want it more when it comes to that third round. 1773 01:23:44,320 --> 01:23:46,000 Speaker 6: I think she's gonna be able to push a little 1774 01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:47,760 Speaker 6: harder and knows what it takes to get get a 1775 01:23:47,800 --> 01:23:50,320 Speaker 6: win here. Wouldn't be surprised if Silva wins at all. 1776 01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:52,120 Speaker 6: I think she's an elite lait level and this is 1777 01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:54,200 Speaker 6: what she belongs. Yeah, but give me the former chance, 1778 01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:55,679 Speaker 6: give me Alexa Grosso the plus money. 1779 01:23:55,800 --> 01:23:58,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, nice handicap, and I like the angle of competing 1780 01:23:58,520 --> 01:24:01,439 Speaker 5: on the card on which ship Chain is fighting Minol Right, 1781 01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:03,880 Speaker 5: she's gonna, I think, have no choice but to fight 1782 01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:06,160 Speaker 5: like a bad out of hellcatfrole against Silva, who is 1783 01:24:06,200 --> 01:24:08,720 Speaker 5: the favorite, who is the younger fighter who has won 1784 01:24:08,760 --> 01:24:11,040 Speaker 5: twelve in a row, twenty eight years of age out 1785 01:24:11,040 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 5: of Minis jedis Brazil. She is six to zero in 1786 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:17,120 Speaker 5: the UFC and now taking on the former champion Alexa Grosso. 1787 01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:20,400 Speaker 7: I think there's some good value for grasshow right now, 1788 01:24:20,479 --> 01:24:22,559 Speaker 7: especially given the fact that you know she has had 1789 01:24:22,840 --> 01:24:27,520 Speaker 7: a couple of really tough fights, right She's taken on Chevchenko, however, 1790 01:24:27,960 --> 01:24:30,960 Speaker 7: and going back and watching a lot of Natalia Silva's fights, 1791 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:35,080 Speaker 7: this is not your everyday striker. In my opinion, I 1792 01:24:35,120 --> 01:24:38,639 Speaker 7: think she just might be the best striker in that division. Yes, 1793 01:24:38,680 --> 01:24:42,120 Speaker 7: that includes Chevchenko. I think she's that good. Her speed 1794 01:24:42,920 --> 01:24:46,560 Speaker 7: is something else, the way that she puts together, her combinations, 1795 01:24:46,600 --> 01:24:51,080 Speaker 7: her footwork, her takedown defense. I think we'll come into 1796 01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:53,280 Speaker 7: play here against Grasso because I think she's the better 1797 01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,479 Speaker 7: striker here. I think Grasse is going to try to 1798 01:24:55,520 --> 01:24:57,880 Speaker 7: put her on her back. Grossow has a much better 1799 01:24:57,960 --> 01:25:00,640 Speaker 7: chance there against Silva if Silva's on her back. But 1800 01:25:01,000 --> 01:25:03,719 Speaker 7: I think Silva is athletic enough to stop those takedowns. 1801 01:25:04,080 --> 01:25:07,280 Speaker 7: Gressel's takedowns isn't necessarily her strength. I like to Talia 1802 01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:09,320 Speaker 7: Silvia here, and I like her big, and I think 1803 01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:11,000 Speaker 7: she may have the belt in. 1804 01:25:10,960 --> 01:25:12,559 Speaker 5: The future as well. I think she's that good. I 1805 01:25:12,680 --> 01:25:15,639 Speaker 5: PRAI can plow bullish on Natalia Silvia. You're right, power 1806 01:25:15,720 --> 01:25:18,280 Speaker 5: speed technique. She is the total package and trying to 1807 01:25:18,280 --> 01:25:20,479 Speaker 5: prove it to the world. But Johnny Avello and the 1808 01:25:20,520 --> 01:25:23,000 Speaker 5: odds makers certainly paying attention. All right, Right back to 1809 01:25:23,080 --> 01:25:26,360 Speaker 5: ken Flow here for a featured bout in the bantamweight division. 1810 01:25:27,240 --> 01:25:30,960 Speaker 5: Jose Aldo minus two eighteen Amon's a hobby plus one 1811 01:25:31,080 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 5: eighty little background for you, Ken Flow doesn't need it. 1812 01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:37,080 Speaker 5: Aldo inducted into the UFC Hall of Fame Class of 1813 01:25:37,120 --> 01:25:40,120 Speaker 5: twenty twenty three. Return to competition less than a year later, 1814 01:25:40,160 --> 01:25:43,880 Speaker 5: went over Jonathan Martinez, then lost to Mario Bautista UFC 1815 01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:47,280 Speaker 5: three zero seven last October. Now, Kenny, he gets your 1816 01:25:47,320 --> 01:25:50,080 Speaker 5: former teammate Amons, a hobby in the Great White North, 1817 01:25:50,120 --> 01:25:53,080 Speaker 5: who was prominent in your preparation for Jose Audo, whom 1818 01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:55,360 Speaker 5: you fought for the UFC featherweight title in your retirement 1819 01:25:55,360 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 5: fight in twenty eleven. I know you will be eyes 1820 01:25:58,320 --> 01:26:02,160 Speaker 5: peeled for Aldo. Visa. Forced to make a pick? Who 1821 01:26:02,160 --> 01:26:04,880 Speaker 5: do you like? Yeah, well, I love watching Jose Aldo fight. 1822 01:26:04,960 --> 01:26:09,559 Speaker 7: He's such a technician, and I'm really proud of Aiman Zahabi, who, 1823 01:26:09,840 --> 01:26:12,559 Speaker 7: as you mentioned, I trained with back a long time ago. 1824 01:26:12,600 --> 01:26:15,280 Speaker 7: And I think this is an awesome opportunity for him 1825 01:26:15,320 --> 01:26:18,880 Speaker 7: to face a real mixed martial arts legend in Jose Aldo. 1826 01:26:18,960 --> 01:26:20,760 Speaker 7: And and this is gonna be a tough fight for 1827 01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:24,320 Speaker 7: both guys. I think that Jose Aldo at times has 1828 01:26:24,360 --> 01:26:28,040 Speaker 7: struggled later in fights, especially when a fast pace has 1829 01:26:28,080 --> 01:26:31,280 Speaker 7: been kept up by his opponent. And I also think 1830 01:26:31,320 --> 01:26:33,439 Speaker 7: you need to be able to take away that space 1831 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 7: against Jose Aldo. That's no easy task, especially when he's 1832 01:26:37,280 --> 01:26:40,360 Speaker 7: kicking well and when he's establishing that very educated jab 1833 01:26:40,400 --> 01:26:44,800 Speaker 7: that he that he has. So for Aiman, I think 1834 01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:48,920 Speaker 7: it's it's a winnable fight. But the paths to victory 1835 01:26:48,960 --> 01:26:53,240 Speaker 7: for Aman are all very different, very difficult roads. So 1836 01:26:53,320 --> 01:26:55,200 Speaker 7: I think he's gonna have to use everything in order 1837 01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:57,720 Speaker 7: to do it. But I think he will find a way. 1838 01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:00,920 Speaker 7: I think as Zahabi's pressure, the fact that he has 1839 01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:05,000 Speaker 7: a lot of power and could hurt Jose Aldo, and 1840 01:27:05,040 --> 01:27:07,240 Speaker 7: the fact that he doesn't have as many miles as 1841 01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:10,479 Speaker 7: Jose Aldo right now, So give me Avid's a hobby 1842 01:27:10,479 --> 01:27:10,760 Speaker 7: for the win. 1843 01:27:11,600 --> 01:27:14,679 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's very interesting, nicely laid out can flow. Aldo 1844 01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:17,439 Speaker 5: will be thirty nine in September's Hobby's only about a 1845 01:27:17,560 --> 01:27:21,680 Speaker 5: year younger, but the MMA miles tell a different story. Brian, So, 1846 01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:24,200 Speaker 5: Hobby's won five in a row, dating to a twenty 1847 01:27:24,280 --> 01:27:26,720 Speaker 5: nineteen loss to Vince Morales, all serving to set up 1848 01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:28,640 Speaker 5: the biggest fight of his career. How do you think 1849 01:27:28,680 --> 01:27:30,120 Speaker 5: he handles the spotlight? 1850 01:27:30,400 --> 01:27:32,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, so when you first see these guys lined up, 1851 01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:34,719 Speaker 6: you know, my first instinct is, wow, Joseada is pretty 1852 01:27:34,720 --> 01:27:37,519 Speaker 6: good value here. Jado's Josato, right, And I feel like 1853 01:27:37,560 --> 01:27:38,960 Speaker 6: a lot of people think that, But when you take 1854 01:27:38,960 --> 01:27:40,960 Speaker 6: a deeper look in, and of course I do. And 1855 01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:43,000 Speaker 6: it's funny. When I went and really capped as a 1856 01:27:43,040 --> 01:27:45,280 Speaker 6: hobby here, I found a couple old videos on YouTube, 1857 01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:47,599 Speaker 6: some bits that they did where they're like treating Kenny 1858 01:27:47,640 --> 01:27:49,800 Speaker 6: like a king and they're doing like they're like, oh, Kenny, 1859 01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:51,720 Speaker 6: let us sleep here. In is like fifteen guys to 1860 01:27:51,760 --> 01:27:54,080 Speaker 6: a room and this is Kenny's private room. This is 1861 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:56,280 Speaker 6: his other room. He likes to change in this room. 1862 01:27:56,520 --> 01:27:58,439 Speaker 6: Do you, Kenny, do you remember filming all that stuff? 1863 01:27:58,840 --> 01:27:58,920 Speaker 5: Like? 1864 01:27:59,320 --> 01:28:01,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, I caught that. It was funny. It was a 1865 01:28:01,320 --> 01:28:03,760 Speaker 6: preparation of Kenny getting ready for Aldo. And it's cool 1866 01:28:03,800 --> 01:28:05,720 Speaker 6: seeing Aman now in that spot and I think he's 1867 01:28:05,760 --> 01:28:08,000 Speaker 6: got one of the greatest minds in his brother to 1868 01:28:08,120 --> 01:28:10,360 Speaker 6: prepare him for this. That's the thing about Josey Auto 1869 01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:13,519 Speaker 6: is guys like Aiman have been getting Kenny ready for it, 1870 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:15,760 Speaker 6: and he's been dreaming about a fighting a guy like 1871 01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:18,519 Speaker 6: Audo and Aado's gonna have that with anybody fights, so 1872 01:28:18,640 --> 01:28:20,280 Speaker 6: they know what they want to do. It's just a 1873 01:28:20,360 --> 01:28:22,080 Speaker 6: matter are they going to show up and is our 1874 01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:24,280 Speaker 6: body allow them to do that? And I think Aiman 1875 01:28:24,320 --> 01:28:26,360 Speaker 6: looked really good. I think the one thing I would 1876 01:28:26,360 --> 01:28:29,280 Speaker 6: critique about him going throughout his career except his last fight, 1877 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:31,400 Speaker 6: was the volume just wasn't there for me. He landed 1878 01:28:31,439 --> 01:28:35,320 Speaker 6: a hundred strikes against Pedro Munoz was in the firefight 1879 01:28:35,360 --> 01:28:36,840 Speaker 6: most of the time, and he's slick when he gets 1880 01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:38,439 Speaker 6: in there, and he was laying a lot of strikes 1881 01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:40,479 Speaker 6: without I think that's what you gotta do. You have 1882 01:28:40,560 --> 01:28:43,320 Speaker 6: to hit Auto. You have to keep constantly hitting him 1883 01:28:43,360 --> 01:28:45,160 Speaker 6: out striking him. You can't stare at him and be 1884 01:28:45,240 --> 01:28:47,320 Speaker 6: in all get your legs kick off. That's gonna be 1885 01:28:47,360 --> 01:28:50,120 Speaker 6: a problem. Grappling, I think is gonna be neutral. I 1886 01:28:50,240 --> 01:28:51,840 Speaker 6: like the hobby here as well. I knew Kenny was 1887 01:28:51,880 --> 01:28:54,559 Speaker 6: gonna come of maybe lean towards the hobby. I want 1888 01:28:54,600 --> 01:28:55,920 Speaker 6: to get away from that. I want to give the 1889 01:28:55,960 --> 01:28:58,000 Speaker 6: people maybe something else to pick if they're riding Kenny 1890 01:28:58,080 --> 01:29:00,000 Speaker 6: or me. But I'm on the hobby. I think it's 1891 01:29:00,000 --> 01:29:01,680 Speaker 6: it's a great number. I think the guy's gonna get 1892 01:29:01,680 --> 01:29:03,760 Speaker 6: it done with it by a decision as well. I 1893 01:29:03,760 --> 01:29:05,040 Speaker 6: think it's gonna be a good fight. But I think 1894 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 6: ultimately he's gonna have a game plan. He's gonna have 1895 01:29:07,479 --> 01:29:10,200 Speaker 6: the skills to be able to confuse and frustrate Joe's 1896 01:29:10,240 --> 01:29:12,360 Speaker 6: out and out outpoint him in this spot. 1897 01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:17,679 Speaker 5: All right Comin event Women's Flyweight Championship, we list betting favorites. 1898 01:29:17,720 --> 01:29:21,080 Speaker 5: First challenger Minaud Fuel minus won fifty five. Valancina Chipchenko 1899 01:29:21,120 --> 01:29:26,120 Speaker 5: plus one thirty, the long overdue French Beast finally getting 1900 01:29:26,120 --> 01:29:28,040 Speaker 5: her crack at the gold. She's seven to zero. The 1901 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:31,320 Speaker 5: UFC Brye Debude with the stoppage of Victoria Leonardo in 1902 01:29:31,360 --> 01:29:34,920 Speaker 5: twenty twenty one, hasn't stopped winning since. Now on Deniable, 1903 01:29:34,920 --> 01:29:36,240 Speaker 5: We'll see what she has for the future Hall of 1904 01:29:36,280 --> 01:29:37,880 Speaker 5: Famer this weekend. Who do you like? 1905 01:29:38,120 --> 01:29:39,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, I've been a fan of Manon for for a 1906 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:42,240 Speaker 6: long time. I've I've uttered the words she'll be a 1907 01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 6: champion one day, and I think that one day is Saturday. 1908 01:29:44,439 --> 01:29:47,839 Speaker 6: I think she's gonna win here. Shatanko, there's no knocker Chotanko. 1909 01:29:47,880 --> 01:29:50,200 Speaker 6: I think she's fantastic. But Shipchenko is doing now in 1910 01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:54,280 Speaker 6: her career is kind of slowing it down for herself, 1911 01:29:54,400 --> 01:29:56,640 Speaker 6: taking some of the striking opportunities away and getting the 1912 01:29:56,680 --> 01:29:58,439 Speaker 6: fight to the ground. She's a big, strong girl for 1913 01:29:58,520 --> 01:30:01,640 Speaker 6: that division. Enter On who is bigger and stronger in 1914 01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:04,120 Speaker 6: my opinion, after what she did to Aaron Blanchfield, who 1915 01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:05,960 Speaker 6: I know might be a tad on her size but 1916 01:30:06,080 --> 01:30:09,639 Speaker 6: is a physically strong grappler chucking her left and right, 1917 01:30:09,800 --> 01:30:12,599 Speaker 6: wasn't even entertaining that and outworked her, outpointed or beat 1918 01:30:12,640 --> 01:30:15,120 Speaker 6: her up on the feet. You got two fantastic strikers 1919 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:17,200 Speaker 6: who have learned to grapple really well, and I just 1920 01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:21,000 Speaker 6: think Manan has the better strength, and I think she 1921 01:30:21,120 --> 01:30:23,800 Speaker 6: might be a little bit more potent on the feet 1922 01:30:23,800 --> 01:30:25,640 Speaker 6: as well when it comes to the striking, especially with 1923 01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:27,519 Speaker 6: the hands. I think Valentine has got some really good kicks. 1924 01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:29,280 Speaker 6: I think Manon's got some really good hands. I think 1925 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:31,080 Speaker 6: that's gonna make the difference here. I won't even be 1926 01:30:31,120 --> 01:30:33,519 Speaker 6: surprised that Mononau gets a finish in this spot. That's 1927 01:30:33,520 --> 01:30:35,240 Speaker 6: something I might be looking for later in the week 1928 01:30:35,280 --> 01:30:37,720 Speaker 6: when when the props open up. But for right now, 1929 01:30:37,720 --> 01:30:39,360 Speaker 6: I think it's a new baby. I think Monona fail, 1930 01:30:39,439 --> 01:30:41,679 Speaker 6: it's going to get it done CaMV. 1931 01:30:41,760 --> 01:30:43,479 Speaker 5: I'm calling the fight. But after what I saw it 1932 01:30:43,600 --> 01:30:46,559 Speaker 5: sphear last September, I don't know that I would be 1933 01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:49,000 Speaker 5: bullish about walking to a window to put down my 1934 01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:52,479 Speaker 5: hard earned money against Valentine. I thought she turned back 1935 01:30:52,520 --> 01:30:54,680 Speaker 5: the clock and look great. How do you handicap her 1936 01:30:54,760 --> 01:30:58,639 Speaker 5: chances to spring the upset and retain her title? 1937 01:31:00,080 --> 01:31:02,240 Speaker 7: Yeah, I get a lot of what Brian's saying. I 1938 01:31:02,240 --> 01:31:07,120 Speaker 7: think Manaal is very impressive. I think that she has 1939 01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:09,800 Speaker 7: a unique striking style that is difficult for a lot 1940 01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:11,960 Speaker 7: of people to deal with. You know, that karate style 1941 01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:15,360 Speaker 7: that in and out kind of lansom strikes disappear, that 1942 01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:18,920 Speaker 7: blitz out of nowhere could be a handful for a 1943 01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:22,519 Speaker 7: lot of fighters, But Schevchenko isn't just a lot of fighters. 1944 01:31:22,560 --> 01:31:27,000 Speaker 7: I think that she proved herself, you know, worthy of 1945 01:31:27,000 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 7: that belt when she came back to beat Grasso as 1946 01:31:29,080 --> 01:31:31,760 Speaker 7: John mentioned, and I think the way that she went 1947 01:31:31,800 --> 01:31:36,639 Speaker 7: about it showed that she's a sophisticated operator. She knows 1948 01:31:36,680 --> 01:31:39,400 Speaker 7: how to execute and game plans, she knows how to 1949 01:31:39,600 --> 01:31:43,240 Speaker 7: fix her mistakes, and she's in order to do that, 1950 01:31:43,320 --> 01:31:45,360 Speaker 7: you need to have that passion, you need to have 1951 01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:48,920 Speaker 7: that hunger. Someone who's not hungry doesn't really care about 1952 01:31:48,960 --> 01:31:53,479 Speaker 7: improving their game, And I think for Chevchenko, I thought 1953 01:31:53,479 --> 01:31:56,160 Speaker 7: that was a really good sign that she still wants 1954 01:31:56,320 --> 01:31:59,639 Speaker 7: in this game, she still loves to fight, and because 1955 01:31:59,680 --> 01:32:02,000 Speaker 7: of that, I like Chevchenko here. It's rare that you're 1956 01:32:02,000 --> 01:32:05,880 Speaker 7: gonna see Chevchenko in this underdog spot, especially against someone 1957 01:32:05,880 --> 01:32:09,360 Speaker 7: who's no doubt a great fighter. But she hasn't proven 1958 01:32:09,400 --> 01:32:12,040 Speaker 7: herself enough to me. And I think, yes, that Blanchfield 1959 01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:16,040 Speaker 7: win was huge Brian, no question, But Blanchfield isn't necessarily 1960 01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:18,720 Speaker 7: known as having the best takedown game. I think Chefchenko 1961 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,840 Speaker 7: has better takedowns. So I think if Blanchfield can't get 1962 01:32:21,880 --> 01:32:24,559 Speaker 7: you to the ground, then anyone almost in that division 1963 01:32:24,600 --> 01:32:25,240 Speaker 7: has a good shot. 1964 01:32:25,240 --> 01:32:28,680 Speaker 5: Why Because Blanchfield's tough, but she's not a great striker. 1965 01:32:29,000 --> 01:32:33,120 Speaker 7: And I think that, you know, Chevchenko is a very 1966 01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:38,840 Speaker 7: different fighter than Aaron Blanchfield. So yeah, I like Chevchenko here, 1967 01:32:39,560 --> 01:32:40,519 Speaker 7: I'm gonna take it. 1968 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:44,160 Speaker 5: And you're right, man like desperately hungry going into that 1969 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:50,320 Speaker 5: Grosso Trilogy fight all right, main event for the undisputed 1970 01:32:50,360 --> 01:32:54,200 Speaker 5: Welterweight Championship, first title defense for Black Mohammed a modus 1971 01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:57,920 Speaker 5: two thirty eight favorite on DraftKings sportsbook. Here early during 1972 01:32:57,960 --> 01:33:01,120 Speaker 5: fight week, Jack Dela Atlanta comes plus one ninety five. 1973 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,840 Speaker 5: So Mohammad nearly defended the Belts in short order against 1974 01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:07,840 Speaker 5: Shofcott rock Monov last year. Life threatening foot infection got 1975 01:33:07,840 --> 01:33:10,960 Speaker 5: in the way of that, and now Shafcott toremniscus Ona 1976 01:33:10,960 --> 01:33:12,920 Speaker 5: able to make the walk, It'll be Jack Dela Madalena, 1977 01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:17,040 Speaker 5: who is seven to zero in the UFC. Brian Petrie, Yes, 1978 01:33:17,720 --> 01:33:21,519 Speaker 5: Balah Muhammad or Jack Dela Maddelena as you have coined 1979 01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:23,640 Speaker 5: him three named Jack. 1980 01:33:24,120 --> 01:33:26,800 Speaker 6: Listen, guys, listen, let's let's let's let full trenk. We 1981 01:33:26,840 --> 01:33:28,920 Speaker 6: all see the comments. We see the comments. You guys 1982 01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:33,200 Speaker 6: suck below Dick every episode quick talking about below. We 1983 01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:36,000 Speaker 6: see what you guys are saying. But the point being 1984 01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:38,799 Speaker 6: is right, and I'm probably not close with Blaus obviously, 1985 01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:41,200 Speaker 6: most of these guys were friendly. I like, blaa, we've 1986 01:33:41,240 --> 01:33:44,679 Speaker 6: met YadA YadA. But he's the best in the division 1987 01:33:44,720 --> 01:33:46,599 Speaker 6: for a reason. He's the champion for a reason. Hey 1988 01:33:46,760 --> 01:33:49,040 Speaker 6: put on your hate aside. Look what the guy has done. 1989 01:33:49,880 --> 01:33:52,160 Speaker 6: End of story. So nobody's he going to his breakdown 1990 01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:56,800 Speaker 6: of anything. I've glazed Jack Delman, Jack, that's my guy. 1991 01:33:56,880 --> 01:33:58,680 Speaker 6: You know, I've been three named Jack, I've been all 1992 01:33:58,680 --> 01:34:01,000 Speaker 6: over I've never picked against him. This is a fun fight. 1993 01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:03,280 Speaker 6: This is a really good fight. And it's interesting because 1994 01:34:03,360 --> 01:34:05,680 Speaker 6: Jack has posted some things on social media where he 1995 01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:08,080 Speaker 6: brought in Craig Jones, who's a world renown grappler. He's 1996 01:34:08,200 --> 01:34:11,559 Speaker 6: out in a Vocnosti's grappling coach and Jack Della choked 1997 01:34:11,600 --> 01:34:13,880 Speaker 6: him out flat out with the dars, and they've been 1998 01:34:13,880 --> 01:34:15,680 Speaker 6: showing that was that real. Who knows, you know, we're 1999 01:34:15,720 --> 01:34:17,479 Speaker 6: hyping up a fight. I'm not saying he's gonna check 2000 01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:20,680 Speaker 6: out Bella, but clearly he's working his ground game. And 2001 01:34:20,720 --> 01:34:22,320 Speaker 6: that's the one thing that's the big question, because you 2002 01:34:22,320 --> 01:34:23,760 Speaker 6: go back to the hefets fight, you go back to 2003 01:34:23,760 --> 01:34:26,120 Speaker 6: the basil halfests fight, and you're like, oh, there's a 2004 01:34:26,200 --> 01:34:29,280 Speaker 6: lot of opportunities there that Jack really kind of squandered. 2005 01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:32,160 Speaker 6: You know, Basl was exhausted and all you got to 2006 01:34:32,160 --> 01:34:34,400 Speaker 6: do is punch a little more, and he engaged in 2007 01:34:34,400 --> 01:34:36,720 Speaker 6: the grappling where he kept getting reversed, and there's a 2008 01:34:36,760 --> 01:34:38,519 Speaker 6: lot of issues with that. Yes, that was a while ago, 2009 01:34:38,600 --> 01:34:40,679 Speaker 6: but then the fight, i Q has gotten better since then. 2010 01:34:41,040 --> 01:34:44,240 Speaker 6: Jack in the pocket is money. His boxing in the 2011 01:34:44,280 --> 01:34:48,479 Speaker 6: pocket is nasty. It is beautiful combinations. He can he 2012 01:34:48,479 --> 01:34:50,360 Speaker 6: can just throw one punch, he can post out you 2013 01:34:50,360 --> 01:34:52,479 Speaker 6: from once. He can do combinations. You have to be 2014 01:34:52,600 --> 01:34:55,360 Speaker 6: very careful in the pocket because he is willing to exchange. 2015 01:34:55,400 --> 01:34:57,800 Speaker 6: He is willing to take a hit to give a hit. Yes, 2016 01:34:57,920 --> 01:34:59,800 Speaker 6: that's what he's willing to do. He's willing to put 2017 01:34:59,840 --> 01:35:01,600 Speaker 6: him off the fire. Then you got a guy a 2018 01:35:01,680 --> 01:35:04,040 Speaker 6: Blao who a lot of people go, oh, Canelo hands 2019 01:35:04,080 --> 01:35:06,120 Speaker 6: and this and that for whatever reason. But if you 2020 01:35:06,160 --> 01:35:09,000 Speaker 6: look at Blao, his hands have gotten so much tractically 2021 01:35:09,040 --> 01:35:12,320 Speaker 6: better with his own style. It's he's a big thick dude, 2022 01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:15,040 Speaker 6: but it's it's not necessarily pity pat, but it's to 2023 01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:17,519 Speaker 6: put you in puts you in your face. I'm putting 2024 01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:19,799 Speaker 6: something out there in your face almost Nick Nick Diaz 2025 01:35:19,840 --> 01:35:22,479 Speaker 6: a llah. Maybe I'll throw it over him. That's power, 2026 01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:23,920 Speaker 6: and then I'm going for a double one. I'm putting 2027 01:35:23,920 --> 01:35:26,040 Speaker 6: you on your fucking head. No one can stop it. 2028 01:35:26,080 --> 01:35:28,240 Speaker 6: And I said this years ago, before Blao was a champion. 2029 01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:30,679 Speaker 6: He had the best cardio in the division. He barely 2030 01:35:30,720 --> 01:35:33,200 Speaker 6: broke a sweat with Leon and Leon one or maybe 2031 01:35:33,240 --> 01:35:34,880 Speaker 6: not one, but came back in that fight, and I 2032 01:35:34,880 --> 01:35:37,599 Speaker 6: think Blao lost focus this fight. You're not losing focus. 2033 01:35:37,600 --> 01:35:39,920 Speaker 6: You're the champ. Now you got that strap. You gotta 2034 01:35:39,960 --> 01:35:42,439 Speaker 6: go a hard five and you gotta put this guy away, 2035 01:35:42,520 --> 01:35:44,680 Speaker 6: or at least try to write. Easier said than done 2036 01:35:44,680 --> 01:35:46,720 Speaker 6: when you got a guy like Jack. But Bla's the 2037 01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:48,479 Speaker 6: boogeyman for a lot of people in this division. This 2038 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:51,080 Speaker 6: is a tough matchup for anybody, and it's even a 2039 01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:53,000 Speaker 6: really bad matchup for I think a guy like three 2040 01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:54,839 Speaker 6: named Jack, I think this is gonna be a problem. 2041 01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:57,320 Speaker 6: I think Blow's grappling his head and shoulders above. I 2042 01:35:57,360 --> 01:35:58,840 Speaker 6: think Jack thinks he's gonna get away with a lot 2043 01:35:58,840 --> 01:36:01,479 Speaker 6: of striking in the pocket because Balau does close distance. 2044 01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:03,720 Speaker 6: He's not the tallest guy at win seventy, so he 2045 01:36:03,760 --> 01:36:05,599 Speaker 6: will be in your face and closing distance, so Jack 2046 01:36:05,640 --> 01:36:07,720 Speaker 6: probably thinks I can get my strikes off there. But 2047 01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:09,519 Speaker 6: the minute you think that's the minut you're getting put 2048 01:36:09,560 --> 01:36:12,560 Speaker 6: on your back and Bela's heavy on top. He's powerful, 2049 01:36:12,720 --> 01:36:15,040 Speaker 6: he doesn't stop. He's gonna try to break you with 2050 01:36:15,040 --> 01:36:18,479 Speaker 6: his cardio. And God, he is so motivated for this fight, 2051 01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:20,040 Speaker 6: you know what I mean. He wants to be an 2052 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:23,360 Speaker 6: active champion. That foot thing really fucked him up. He's chomping, 2053 01:36:23,400 --> 01:36:25,160 Speaker 6: not the big to get in there, and I just 2054 01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:27,280 Speaker 6: don't think there's anybody better in the world at one 2055 01:36:27,320 --> 01:36:29,720 Speaker 6: hundred and seventy pounds on blah Muhammet. I like him 2056 01:36:29,720 --> 01:36:32,439 Speaker 6: to win this fight, probably a fifty forty five because 2057 01:36:32,479 --> 01:36:34,360 Speaker 6: Jack's tough. I don't see him getting theim out of there, 2058 01:36:34,360 --> 01:36:37,160 Speaker 6: but I would love a finish. But Jack will be 2059 01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:41,200 Speaker 6: back one day. But gimme Bla. Remember the name, mom. 2060 01:36:41,200 --> 01:36:43,679 Speaker 5: All right, kem flow. The floor is yours. Della Mattatlanda, 2061 01:36:43,720 --> 01:36:46,040 Speaker 5: returning for the first time since UFC two ninety nine 2062 01:36:46,080 --> 01:36:48,760 Speaker 5: around three t KO of Gilbert Burns more than a 2063 01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:52,720 Speaker 5: year ago. At one point he was gonna fight shovcatt Rokamanov, 2064 01:36:53,400 --> 01:36:56,240 Speaker 5: but the calendar is aligned for three named Jack. Your 2065 01:36:56,240 --> 01:36:59,040 Speaker 5: thoughts on him against Balal in the title fight this weekend, 2066 01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:01,200 Speaker 5: very interesting matchup. 2067 01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:05,840 Speaker 7: Jack delamount Atlanta is a fantastic striker, particularly because his 2068 01:37:06,160 --> 01:37:09,680 Speaker 7: counter striking is elite. Now, the problem with that is 2069 01:37:09,680 --> 01:37:12,320 Speaker 7: Ballall doesn't really throw a lot of things where he 2070 01:37:12,360 --> 01:37:16,439 Speaker 7: throws himself off balance. Where he's throwing wide shots. It's 2071 01:37:16,479 --> 01:37:19,240 Speaker 7: a lot of like crisp quick shots in and out 2072 01:37:19,680 --> 01:37:22,920 Speaker 7: to set up takedowns, you know, to set up kicks 2073 01:37:23,200 --> 01:37:26,920 Speaker 7: at different ranges. So I think that flick jab in 2074 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:30,240 Speaker 7: particular that he has been developing should come into play 2075 01:37:30,280 --> 01:37:33,799 Speaker 7: a lot here because it's a very difficult strike to counter, 2076 01:37:34,000 --> 01:37:36,320 Speaker 7: like to slip and get on the inside where Jack 2077 01:37:36,360 --> 01:37:40,439 Speaker 7: Dela Moutalanta wants to be. It becomes very very difficult 2078 01:37:40,479 --> 01:37:44,000 Speaker 7: to do that. So I think that alone, the striking 2079 01:37:44,040 --> 01:37:48,000 Speaker 7: style of Belall can be a problem. JDM certainly has 2080 01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:51,360 Speaker 7: knockout power, he's got the speed, he has the slickness. 2081 01:37:52,240 --> 01:37:54,960 Speaker 7: What I've noticed it sometimes sometimes it can take him 2082 01:37:54,960 --> 01:37:57,280 Speaker 7: a little bit to get going, you know, similar to 2083 01:37:57,280 --> 01:37:59,439 Speaker 7: the Gilbert Burns fight. But I you know, I asked 2084 01:37:59,439 --> 01:38:01,800 Speaker 7: Balal about that fight because I think there's a lot 2085 01:38:01,880 --> 01:38:05,080 Speaker 7: for Bellall to kind of build off of. You know, 2086 01:38:05,160 --> 01:38:08,080 Speaker 7: I think I think Burns got really tired in that fight. 2087 01:38:08,160 --> 01:38:10,080 Speaker 7: I think he got a little frustrated in that fight. 2088 01:38:10,560 --> 01:38:14,560 Speaker 7: Ballall doesn't get tired and he doesn't get frustrated. 2089 01:38:14,600 --> 01:38:18,160 Speaker 5: He just moves forward. He stays very present during the fight. 2090 01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:22,000 Speaker 5: He's got the championship belt, but he has the championship mindset, 2091 01:38:22,080 --> 01:38:23,080 Speaker 5: no question about it. 2092 01:38:23,479 --> 01:38:25,639 Speaker 7: And I think that all of this experience that he's 2093 01:38:25,680 --> 01:38:28,160 Speaker 7: been accruing just to get to the belt has served 2094 01:38:28,240 --> 01:38:31,559 Speaker 7: him extremely well. It's only battle hardened him that much 2095 01:38:31,640 --> 01:38:35,639 Speaker 7: more and proven that he's really is pretty anti fragile. 2096 01:38:35,680 --> 01:38:38,639 Speaker 7: So JDM, I'm still waiting to I kind of wanted 2097 01:38:38,640 --> 01:38:41,040 Speaker 7: to get more intel on him on just how good 2098 01:38:41,080 --> 01:38:43,679 Speaker 7: he is now. He may be good enough to beat 2099 01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:48,080 Speaker 7: someone like Balal Mohammed, I just haven't seen it quite yet. 2100 01:38:48,720 --> 01:38:51,559 Speaker 7: So with that, I think this is going to be 2101 01:38:51,680 --> 01:38:53,760 Speaker 7: a good performance for Balal and I think he wins 2102 01:38:53,800 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 7: this fight. 2103 01:38:54,640 --> 01:38:56,720 Speaker 5: A lot of big things coming up during this fight 2104 01:38:56,760 --> 01:38:58,920 Speaker 5: week for UFC three fifteen.
