1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,120
Speaker 1: What's up, guys. Welcome to a brand new episode of

2
00:00:02,120 --> 00:00:05,320
Speaker 1: The Daniel Cormier Show. Today, I am joined by one

3
00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:07,800
Speaker 1: of the best lightweights in the world. I would say

4
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,320
Speaker 1: he's one of the best lightweights that we've ever seen

5
00:00:10,400 --> 00:00:14,240
Speaker 1: because of his style, his ability, his composure inside the octagon,

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:17,160
Speaker 1: and so much more. This guy's a wrestler, He's a

7
00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,159
Speaker 1: number one contender. He's not all out savage. Sometimes you

8
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: get an athlete that comes into the game and they

9
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,639
Speaker 1: are such a student of the game that they just

10
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: pursue greatness and pursue getting better at every single step.

11
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,839
Speaker 1: That's exactly what Armanserukian does. So right now why he

12
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: is still actively the number one contender in the weight class.

13
00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,560
Speaker 1: He goes out in the wrestles, he does grappling competitions. Hell,

14
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,640
Speaker 1: if they would let armand box, I'm pretty sure Armanserukian

15
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:49,280
Speaker 1: would box if given the opportunity. This guy's a fighter

16
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: through and through. But it's not justifighting that defines ar

17
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 1: montseruki On. It's the viral videos of him eating unbelievable

18
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:02,600
Speaker 1: amounts of caviare spending money, his family is upbringing Georgia,

19
00:01:02,680 --> 00:01:05,959
Speaker 1: moving to Russia, and everything else that defines a young man. Today,

20
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,560
Speaker 1: I'm joined by the one and.

21
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,760

00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,960
Speaker 1: Armand let's go back to the beginning though. Let's talk

33
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 1: about your childhood. Do you remember much about your childhood

34
00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: growing up living in Georgia before you moved to Russia

35
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 1: and stayed there.

36
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 2: No, I don't remember. I was born in Georgia and

37
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: then I moved to Russia, so when I was three

38
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: years old or two and a half years old. So,

39
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: but I remember my childhood from the from the from Russia.

40
00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: Yeah.

41
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 2: So uh, the beginning was was was we had a

42
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,800
Speaker 2: hard life, you know, because we just moved there. You know,

43
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,760
Speaker 2: my father we didn't have a house, you know. But

44
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,840
Speaker 2: and then my father started working hard and they make money.

45
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: And then we got the house. We get all opportunities,

46
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:31,200
Speaker 2: and we went to school. And when I was seven,

47
00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 2: I went to the wrestling school or six, now my

48
00:02:34,040 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 2: brother he was eight. I was six and I went

49
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,280
Speaker 2: to the freestyle wrestling school.

50
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 1: What what made you take up wrestling?

51
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 2: Like?

52
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: What was it?

53
00:02:42,760 --> 00:02:42,919
Speaker 2: That?

54
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 1: Was it your dad that said, Hey, I'm gonna put

55
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:45,519
Speaker 1: my boys in wrestle.

56
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: The first we went to karate karate. We went to karate,

57
00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 2: but karate was a little bit far from our house

58
00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 2: and our dad cannot he couldn't drive us to there.

59
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:01,120
Speaker 2: So and the close to our home was a freestyle

60
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,799
Speaker 2: wrestling gym. So that's why we decided to go there.

61
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 2: And we liked the freestyle wrestling. And I stayed there

62
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,400
Speaker 2: three or four years, and then I transitioned to hockey.

63
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: Because this is crazy, Like all my teammaters from my school,

64
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: they all day they played hockey, you know, I said.

65
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,440
Speaker 2: And I was playing with them like amateur too, But

66
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 2: still I was wrestling. I was competing wrestling like when

67
00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: I was nine nine, but still like three times a

68
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 2: week I winter time, I go to the ice and

69
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,200
Speaker 2: play with them. And then one course said you play

70
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 2: pretty good, So you got to train the hockey. You

71
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: can be a hockey player. And then I quit the

72
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 2: wrestling and I started playing hockey all day.

73
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 1: Why did you quit? Why'd you quit wrestling? You said

74
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: you liked it so.

75
00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 2: Much, but hockey was more fun. And especially you don't

76
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 2: cut weight when I was seven.

77
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:52,200
Speaker 1: You were cutting weight at seven?

78
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:58,119
Speaker 2: Yeah? Seven eight? Why the coaches they just you know,

79
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,560
Speaker 2: they didn't know, like we shouldn't cut. They told us

80
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 2: you shouldn't eat like two days, you know, don't drink anything.

81
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,200
Speaker 2: You got a cut and go for this weight class.

82
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 1: How involved was your dad in your wrestling at a

83
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 1: young age.

84
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: No, he wasn't a wolf. He just gave us to

85
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 2: there and he said, do whatever you want to do.

86
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:20,440
Speaker 2: Just if you need help, just let me know. And

87
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 2: then I said I want to be a hockey player,

88
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,719
Speaker 2: and he said, no problem. So he bought me all

89
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: my all the hockey stuff, you know, because it's it's

90
00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: a little bit expensive. And then he said, if you

91
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 2: need like a professional coach, or bring somewhere or send

92
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,960
Speaker 2: you to Canada or whatever you want. So I said, no,

93
00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,960
Speaker 2: here is pretty good. And they stayed there and then

94
00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 2: I couldn't be a good hockey player.

95
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 1: Why why couldn't you be getting hockey?

96
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 2: I started a little bit late. I started nine. I

97
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 2: was supposed to start like when I was five six,

98
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:53,840
Speaker 2: because that three years when I nine is a little

99
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 2: bit late for hockey. That's crazy nine years old because

100
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 2: the competition is in different So let's see I'm nine,

101
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 2: like ten, they already playing like full five years really, yeah,

102
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 2: like from five years they play.

103
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: So when you were playing hockey, how much did you

104
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,160
Speaker 1: use what you learned on the wrestling mat in hockey?

105
00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:17,960
Speaker 1: Tackling people, hitting people, checking people, Like, how much of

106
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:18,840
Speaker 1: that did you use?

107
00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: I use one. We are in the locker room and

108
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:25,279
Speaker 2: fighting in the locker room, so I was I was

109
00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 2: using my wrestling yeah. Yeah, so you're immediately the toughest guy. Yeah,

110
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,720
Speaker 2: But on the ice, I wasn't that good on the fighting.

111
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 2: So people that my teammateer, they they didn't try to

112
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 2: mess with me, you know.

113
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 1: So when you when you went from wrestling at nine

114
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 1: years old to hockey, how long before you got back

115
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,400
Speaker 1: into wrestling, Because if you're living in Russia, wrestling is

116
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 1: number one. At least that's our idea of it. From

117
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 1: the outside, Like wrestling is the number one sport in Russia?

118
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: How long were you away from it? No, it depends

119
00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,039
Speaker 2: which party you leave. So I lived the close to

120
00:06:02,120 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 2: Yakuk and even the close to Alaska. You know, yeah

121
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 2: that part everybody played hockey, and this hockey is so

122
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:13,159
Speaker 2: popular there. So number one sport was in my series hockey.

123
00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:16,320
Speaker 2: That's why I played hockey.

124
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 1: And how long were you were you away.

125
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 2: From wrestle until seventeen.

126
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,560
Speaker 1: Years seventeen years old? What made you go back?

127
00:06:24,720 --> 00:06:28,120
Speaker 2: So I couldn't be a good hockey player? And they

128
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 2: said what I got? Were you just bad? No? No,

129
00:06:31,160 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: they did just picked three hour guys, the best ones,

130
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 2: and then like other like twenty five thirty people, they

131
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:43,120
Speaker 2: just went to the like I don't know, they went

132
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,760
Speaker 2: to the college. They played for the college. But not

133
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 2: like professionals, you know. They they they couldn't make money

134
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: from them. But three of them they could go to

135
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 2: the different clubs. And the one of our friends, he

136
00:06:55,680 --> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 2: went to the NHL. So yeah, but uh, and then

137
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:04,240
Speaker 2: the grappling was so popular that moment the groppling, and

138
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 2: they said, okay, what I can do? I cannot be

139
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 2: a rust I cannot be I should go to try

140
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 2: to this groppling. And I tried groppling and I won

141
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,239
Speaker 2: Russian competition right away, and they said it's so easy,

142
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 2: maybe I should fight. You're starting. I started fighting. I

143
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:25,040
Speaker 2: started fighting, really yeah. And then my father said, okay,

144
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 2: so then just a sport, just do one fight and

145
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:31,400
Speaker 2: like get out of there because you can be stupid?

146
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 1: Can I ask you a question? A lot of times,

147
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,000
Speaker 1: especially over there right we hear stories of could be

148
00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 1: uh Islam. So many of the Russian fighters, their fathers

149
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,080
Speaker 1: were like on them and they were very strict, and

150
00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: they were very tough, and they almost they were on

151
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 1: them to make sure that they turned out to be

152
00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 1: what they wanted to be, held them accountable to their goals.

153
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 2: Was your dad like that at all?

154
00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 1: Or was he more just a supportive person that was

155
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 1: just on the journey with you.

156
00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:03,400
Speaker 2: No, he just supported me. He never said me, why

157
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 2: you're like sleeping, you gotta go to train, or he

158
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,200
Speaker 2: never been in the sport. He doesn't know like how

159
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 2: sport works. You know. He just supported me. I did

160
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: what I wanted to do, and but uh in I'm like,

161
00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 2: I like sport, that's why you do it? And I

162
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 2: like I left sport. That's why, so I can't do it.

163
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 1: You know, you're a bit of an outlier though, because

164
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:32,959
Speaker 1: most of us have someone on us, whether it's a

165
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:37,160
Speaker 1: father or a coach. Where was that motivation from for

166
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: you when you were a young kid to not only

167
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: go try to pursue hockey. But it doesn't boil down

168
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 1: to arman, this is just so easy. I'm gonna start

169
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:49,400
Speaker 1: fighting and do an MMA. It can't possibly be that.

170
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: There had to be something or someone that helped to

171
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:56,080
Speaker 1: drive you in those years, those teen years as you

172
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:57,400

00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,640
Speaker 2: why it's easy for me, you know. And the I

238

00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,160

00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,639
Speaker 1: That's crazy, it that's good I would live with if

359
00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,280
Speaker 1: I was.

360
00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:55,400
Speaker 2: That easy easy?

361
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,439
Speaker 1: Was there a lot of expectation on you growing up?

362
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:06,240
Speaker 1: Like to do well? They for them from anyone your coaches,

363
00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,000
Speaker 1: Like what was the expectation, Like since I was fifteen

364
00:19:09,040 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 1: years old, people like, you need to go win my coaches,

365
00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:14,640
Speaker 1: you gotta go win. You need to go win.

366
00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:15,879
Speaker 2: I go home.

367
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,320
Speaker 1: My dad's like, you gotta be a good football player.

368
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:21,879
Speaker 1: Like I always had expectation on me, Did you have that?

369
00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 2: Yeah? Like which gym I go? Coaches? Like wrestling. When

370
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,840
Speaker 2: I was wrestling, every coach wanted to take me from

371
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:34,120
Speaker 2: them because they knew. Like when I was like six

372
00:19:34,240 --> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 2: seven eight, I was wrestling like so different, like and

373
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 2: I could beat everybody, and like every coach wanted like

374
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 2: take me because they thought like I'm like a future

375
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 2: Olympic champion. You know, you can see that in kids. Yeah,

376
00:19:48,480 --> 00:19:51,719
Speaker 2: because the coach has always like told me, Ohn, you

377
00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:56,080
Speaker 2: have a different like genetic different like move you you're

378
00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:59,400
Speaker 2: already think how wrestle, even when I was a kid,

379
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 2: but then my coach like I cut a lot of weight,

380
00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,239
Speaker 2: like two kg? Why are you cutting? Like even if

381
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,479
Speaker 2: I'm going to have a kids, like who is going

382
00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,159
Speaker 2: to wrestle, I'm not going to let them cut you know.

383
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:16,760
Speaker 2: Yeah wait, because I was heading that sport because of

384
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:17,400
Speaker 2: cutting weight?

385
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,520
Speaker 1: Is that why you you think it was easier to

386
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: walk away from wrestling because of that?

387
00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 2: Yeah?

388
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, so there was pressure, but it was from

389
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 1: was the coaches telling you, hey, we need to start

390
00:20:26,200 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 1: making the weight.

391
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:31,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but then they started, and for me it was

392
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:34,159
Speaker 2: easier to win like one two kg less you know.

393
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,879
Speaker 2: But you as a seven year old kid, I know,

394
00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,880
Speaker 2: like how I know, like I should I should stay

395
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:41,760
Speaker 2: in my weight, you know.

396
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: But you as a kid, were like, hey, I want

397
00:20:43,600 --> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: to do this because I want to make Yeah, I

398
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:48,200
Speaker 1: want to win. Yeah, when it was important.

399
00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, but coach should should should tell me like, oh,

400
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:55,160
Speaker 2: you shouldn't cut weight. Yeah no, yeah, that's just yeah.

401
00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,280
Speaker 1: I can't really say much about that because I do

402
00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,880
Speaker 1: in my high school. The kids do cut a lot,

403
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,240
Speaker 1: but they're older, right, like sixteen, fifteen, seventeen, Okay, but

404
00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: when you're nine, seven eight years old, No, they should

405
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:07,400
Speaker 1: not because.

406
00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the worst part for the wrestler, especially like

407
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: seven eight until like fourteen years old. No makes sense.

408
00:21:13,560 --> 00:21:15,440
Speaker 2: It's only doesn't matter what are you doing. You win,

409
00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 2: you lose, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. But when

410
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 2: you're sixteen seventeen, you gotta start like pick it up

411
00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: and winning. If you're losing when you're eighteen, you're losing,

412
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:28,080
Speaker 2: you gotta transition to MMA.

413
00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're making it seem like MMA is the easier option,

414
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: and that's not the case.

415
00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,080
Speaker 2: It's easier option for sure than to be an Olympic

416
00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,360
Speaker 2: champion in freestyle wrestling.

417
00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:42,600
Speaker 1: It's impossible being Olympics chair. Be an Olympic chair. I

418
00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:46,200
Speaker 1: tell people constantly. Being Olympic champion and free sty wrestling

419
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:46,959
Speaker 1: is impossible.

420
00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:52,320
Speaker 2: Almost from five million people, one can can be. So

421
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 2: you know, anybody who started like freestyle wrestling thirty years

422
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,679
Speaker 2: old and like became an Olympic champion, you know you

423
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 2: know did you know who? Almost?

424
00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 1: Did I swear you remember?

425
00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:03,000
Speaker 2: You know?

426
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 1: King Moo Mohammed Lawal. He used to fight Elator everything.

427
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: He didn't start wrestling till fifteen. And the guy that

428
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: won the Olympics in two thousand and eight, he beat

429
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 1: him every single time. It was the drug, the little

430
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 1: short I think it maybe eighty four kilos Georgian? Was

431
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,600
Speaker 1: it a Georgian? I wonder if he was a Georgian guy.

432
00:22:21,920 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 1: He was really good. Kingmo beat him every single time.

433
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,280
Speaker 1: Look this up from me, Paul, two thousand and eight

434
00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:29,479
Speaker 1: Olympic Games, eighty four kilo Graham champion.

435
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 2: But he did go did he go to a league?

436
00:22:31,359 --> 00:22:34,920
Speaker 1: Got beat in America by a guy that wasn't as good,

437
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:38,000
Speaker 1: but because the guy had a good style for him.

438
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,720
Speaker 1: Guy lost the first match. But he started at fourteen,

439
00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 1: and it was unheard of that he was so close

440
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: because the rest of us all started real young, and

441
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: we were on the Olympic team. But it's damn near

442
00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: impossible if you start late. But in fighting you.

443
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:58,600
Speaker 2: Can't wrestling, Tennis, football, okay, eighty four kilos yeah, Georgia,

444
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,920
Speaker 2: two thousand and eight, right do yeah, So any any

445
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 2: amateur sport, if you start late, it's almost impossible, less

446
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:07,840
Speaker 2: unless if.

447
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:12,240
Speaker 1: Shooting, what else curly, what else?

448
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:14,600
Speaker 2: Nothing? Yeah?

449
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, So you get into m m A. Right, everything's

450
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: going good. You get the call Moscow you're fighting Islam. Yeah,

451
00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:27,919
Speaker 1: you're fighting Islam on seven days notice.

452
00:23:28,160 --> 00:23:32,000
Speaker 2: I said right away, yes, really yeah? And he said no,

453
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 2: he said there is an opportunity to fight with islamo

454
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,320
Speaker 2: Hatchev in two weeks or two weeks. It was two

455
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 2: or three weeks, I said, And he didn't say when

456
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,160
Speaker 2: I said, Islam, you want to fight? I said yes,

457
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:46,840
Speaker 2: and he's asking you do you don't want to hear

458
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,120
Speaker 2: when he said, doesn't matter, I just need two weeks

459
00:23:50,119 --> 00:23:51,919
Speaker 2: to cut me. Okay, So you got like two and

460
00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:57,040
Speaker 2: a half or three weeks so, and and I knew,

461
00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 2: like I'm going to beat him. I don't know why

462
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,679
Speaker 2: I thought like I'm going to beat him because I

463
00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:05,760
Speaker 2: was super confident, because you gotta be confident. You can't

464
00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:08,520
Speaker 2: believe you're gonna Look. For example, if I didn't take

465
00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 2: that chance, I could be at home right now, maybe

466
00:24:11,359 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 2: I never could come in US and like learn English

467
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,640
Speaker 2: and like never be in UC like I could fight

468
00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,520
Speaker 2: in my country. And you know, if I didn't take

469
00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:24,240
Speaker 2: that chance, that moment.

470
00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 1: And it legitimized you, right, away, right, because everybody's like, wow,

471
00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:30,600
Speaker 1: this kid fought Islam so good and he didn't have

472
00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:31,399
Speaker 1: a training camp.

473
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:35,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a good fight. And then I started

474
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:40,439
Speaker 2: winning fights and remach almost happened, but it almost happened,

475
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:44,240
Speaker 2: almost happened. I pulled my back. But you see that

476
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 2: we fought the first time, and like almost in six years,

477
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:52,560
Speaker 2: we again almost fought. Because we're the best in the division.

478
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,960
Speaker 1: And he always kind of gives you praise for even

479
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,960
Speaker 1: when they asked today, like who's the best lightweight in

480
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:03,159
Speaker 1: the world, he always says, I believe armand Trukiah. Yeah,

481
00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,760
Speaker 1: and that's the respect that probably was earned inside the

482
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:07,640
Speaker 1: oclon on that night when you guys fought.

483
00:25:07,720 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wish we could fight lost year this time. Yeah,

484
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 2: it would be would be the best maybe fight in

485
00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 2: the all time.

486
00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 1: Why why do you think it would have been such

487
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:17,960
Speaker 1: a great fight.

488
00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:22,919
Speaker 2: Because it's, uh, we're such a well rounded fighters, and uh,

489
00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,479
Speaker 2: you know, we have a story. Like we fought when

490
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 2: we were young, and like was six years ago. It

491
00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 2: was my debut and like and and then in six

492
00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 2: years we started winning our fights. He became a champion,

493
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 2: I became a number one contender and fight with each other.

494
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:42,639
Speaker 2: So it's pretty interesting, you know.

495
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,640
Speaker 1: I think so many people thought that fight was gonna

496
00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:49,439
Speaker 1: be good because of the way you guys fought before,

497
00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 1: in the improvements you showed, in improvement he showed. But

498
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 1: unfortunately that fight didn't happen because of uh, you hurting

499
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 1: your back and everything. There were so many stories floating

500
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,080
Speaker 1: around about why you didn't fight what happened. I even

501
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:08,960
Speaker 1: heard once that you just weren't allowed to fight because

502
00:26:08,960 --> 00:26:11,040
Speaker 1: of your father wouldn't let you fight with a herd

503
00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 1: back that you wanted to fight, Like, why are they why?

504
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:16,920
Speaker 2: First off, why are.

505
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,199
Speaker 1: So many people so enamored with you in your life

506
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 1: in terms of your family life that they incorporated into

507
00:26:22,240 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 1: everything that you do? But also like, is it annoying

508
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,080
Speaker 1: to you that all these stories are just always floating

509
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 1: around about Armand's rukia.

510
00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:34,240
Speaker 2: No, not anymore before yes, but now I'm just laughing

511
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,480
Speaker 2: someone that when they ask you you pulled your back. No,

512
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 2: I'm saying I couldn't cut my weight.

513
00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 1: But that that was like people think.

514
00:26:42,080 --> 00:26:45,159
Speaker 2: But now we got the new new thing that it

515
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,359
Speaker 2: wasn't the issue is the bag. It was an issue

516
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:52,920
Speaker 2: as a way cut. It was issue that didn't get

517
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: that pressure that I couldn't fight. What pressure like fighting

518
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 2: the man event in Islam that you couldn't handle pressure.

519
00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,880
Speaker 2: It was in a lave a lot of our minions. Yeah.

520
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:10,200
Speaker 2: So and this is saying like legit, legit people people

521
00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 2: that you actually know, Yeah, like real and you know too.

522
00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, but that's but again like even that, right arman, like.

523
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,680
Speaker 2: All those I don't know. I don't know how they think.

524
00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 2: I have no idea. And the doctor, the doctor came

525
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,199
Speaker 2: and see me, and the doctor said, like maybe I

526
00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:33,359
Speaker 2: could fight, but how she can see, she's not muri

527
00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:36,240
Speaker 2: how she can see? Like what happened? What's going on

528
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 2: with me? She put some tapes and she said, you

529
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 2: feel better? Like how you can feel better if you

530
00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: put some tapes on your back? But you know, I

531
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,560
Speaker 2: get I got, I did MRII but I never show

532
00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 2: to anybody what's going on with my bag. And I

533
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 2: got the doctor who is like sitting and saying, what's

534
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,480
Speaker 2: going on? What we what injury you got on my back?

535
00:27:58,880 --> 00:27:59,719
Speaker 1: How bad was it?

536
00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 2: Yeah?

537
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 1: How bad was it?

538
00:28:01,760 --> 00:28:06,480
Speaker 2: It was bad? It was so bad. So but uh,

539
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 2: one day I gotta do a sergerty. So now I'm

540
00:28:09,920 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 2: I'm figuring out when when I should do that. Yeah,

541
00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,720
Speaker 2: it's still able to train, it's still to able to train.

542
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 2: But uh, I think when I get the belt, I'm

543
00:28:19,200 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 2: going to do the surgery because it takes like six

544
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 2: weeks to get back.

545
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 1: So okay, that right there, right is part of the

546
00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 1: uh the question when it comes to Armand's rukia, right,

547
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,920
Speaker 1: everybody thought it was the way then you win as

548
00:28:34,960 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 1: the backup fighter, right me, I'm calm, this guy's nuber

549
00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 1: one contender. This guy's not one contender because it seems

550
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: very clear that you should be fighting for the championship.

551
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:52,360
Speaker 1: That doesn't happen. You go and fight Dan Hooker, you

552
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:56,120
Speaker 1: smash Dan Hooker. We do an interview day after. People

553
00:28:56,200 --> 00:29:01,000
Speaker 1: are going crazy, so many people watched it. Everybody's aligned

554
00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 1: Armand's rouki On isn't the one contender. It seems like

555
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,080
Speaker 1: a foregone conclusion that when there is a title fight,

556
00:29:08,240 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 1: it's going to be Armand's Roukia. But that doesn't happen.

557
00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 1: Do you buy it? Do you buy the reason that

558
00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,920
Speaker 1: you're not getting the title fight because you head butted

559
00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:21,320
Speaker 1: uh Dan Hooker? Do you believe that that's the reason

560
00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 1: you're not getting a title fight.

561
00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 2: It could be, it could be, and uh, I think

562
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:30,640
Speaker 2: this is paramount first fight. The first paramount, I went,

563
00:29:30,720 --> 00:29:32,800
Speaker 2: that's why they're a little bit scared to put me

564
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 2: there because I pulled out from my well, I pulled

565
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:41,800
Speaker 2: out once in my life from my fight, and they

566
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 2: they doesn't believe that they can make it happen. And

567
00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 2: the second one had But third one is that I

568
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 2: punched the fan. I don't know the fan makes sense

569
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:57,480
Speaker 2: a fan all. Yeah, But like I gotta I gotta

570
00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 2: meet and talk to them. What was the real.

571
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,280
Speaker 1: Have you have you spoken to No? No, why.

572
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:08,200
Speaker 2: They didn't? Have you requested a meeting? No? Why?

573
00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 1: Because you need to get you need to clear this up.

574
00:30:10,440 --> 00:30:13,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I have a manager, so he pay him money.

575
00:30:13,200 --> 00:30:14,880
Speaker 1: Has he has he requested a meeting?

576
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,920
Speaker 2: I think he's going to get the meeting. He's gonna

577
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:22,880
Speaker 2: get them, he's gonna get he's he's gonna talk. Yeah. Yeah.

578
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:28,840
Speaker 2: So but I'm okay, you know whatever. So first a

579
00:30:28,880 --> 00:30:31,920
Speaker 2: couple of days, I said, yeah, what's going on? Like

580
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 2: why is like that? But I said, okay, it's okay,

581
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 2: you know, and I just keep going and I know,

582
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:44,480
Speaker 2: like I'm gonna get my title fight anyway, and it's

583
00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:46,800
Speaker 2: a it's a business tool. You gotta see, like maybe

584
00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people from Russia, you know. Now

585
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 2: they don't have a US champions. They don't have like

586
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:59,640
Speaker 2: England champions. So maybe yeah, but he's he's current. No,

587
00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,240
Speaker 2: the intertent. You need to have aweight champion because John

588
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 2: jo oh yeah yeah yeah, but still so from you

589
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,360
Speaker 2: as they don't have a champion, we don't have a champion.

590
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 2: So that's why maybe they put the gay Gee versus Patty.

591
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 2: I have no I just I just guess you know

592
00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:13,000
Speaker 2: what I'm saying.

593
00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 1: It's the same, right, if it's Geichee versus Arman, we

594
00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,080
Speaker 1: could still have an American champion.

595
00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,200
Speaker 2: I'm so armen.

596
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:27,040
Speaker 1: I'm saying it's a possibility, right, Like Patty Pimblet versus

597
00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 1: Justin Geichee, Patty Pimlet versus Arman's rook and arms Roukan

598
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,600
Speaker 1: versus Justin Gaichee. Anybody can win any fight, right, So

599
00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 1: you could beat these guys or you could lose to

600
00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: these guys in the way fighting works. I'm just saying, yeah,

601
00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,960
Speaker 1: but on any given night, right, yeah.

602
00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:46,280
Speaker 2: It could be. But they peaked that five well, what

603
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:46,680
Speaker 2: can I do.

604
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,880
Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying I'm just saying, like, because you

605
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:53,680
Speaker 1: are fine with it. But it seemed like even me, right,

606
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,280
Speaker 1: I was like, I was so confused. And I work

607
00:31:56,360 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: with this company right, very closely, and I'm like, how

608
00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 1: it just didn't make sense to me.

609
00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 2: Yeah maybe maybe really it's a head bud. Yeah, maybe

610
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:09,800
Speaker 2: really had bud. And yeah it was my fault. Yeah

611
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:12,719
Speaker 2: I know that. And I and I said the hooker

612
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 2: is a man. Maybe it was a different guy. He

613
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 2: could say I heard my head, I couldn't fight you. Yeah,

614
00:32:18,680 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 2: and another that's a big So it was. It was

615
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 2: so bad. But but I think I think that the

616
00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,800
Speaker 2: because of paramount, maybe partamount said we need a Petty

617
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 2: Pimle versus.

618
00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 1: What do you make this fight? Patty people let justin Gaig,

619
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,200
Speaker 1: I believe, I believe just engaging you think is gonna

620
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 1: beat him?

621
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:48,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't think Patty's very good. He's just tough

622
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 2: but not technical. He's wild, wild, But you know, Geige,

623
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:56,000
Speaker 2: he is if he's in good shape, he's going to

624
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:59,560
Speaker 2: be calm first two rounds and he takes he he

625
00:32:59,680 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 2: knows he's he has a lot of experience. See he

626
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:04,760
Speaker 2: beats two times physive.

627
00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:05,760
Speaker 1: How striking.

628
00:33:06,040 --> 00:33:08,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, first first round he gives a lot of like

629
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:14,160
Speaker 2: cakes and no he let kick him, He let like

630
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 2: do a lot of things on him. But the second yeah,

631
00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 2: he's starting like tack it up. Yeah, and the same

632
00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:23,440
Speaker 2: is gonna be here, I think, and I believe, like

633
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,960
Speaker 2: dress Engage, you're gonna be gonna beat him by ko

634
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:28,680
Speaker 2: oh by by by decision.

635
00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 1: Sorry, but Patty never looked better than he did when

636
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 1: he fought Michael Chandler. He was able to take him down,

637
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 1: he was able to control him. His ground game is

638
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:43,000
Speaker 1: pretty good. He's saying he can finish his fighting less

639
00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:46,040
Speaker 1: than three rounds. He thinks he's just better. What do

640
00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:47,920
Speaker 1: you you think he's just talking or like, what do you.

641
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 2: Make of that? We never see him as a good fighter.

642
00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,160
Speaker 2: So if he could beat Charles Alver, if he could

643
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 2: beat me, and then of course we can say, yeah,

644
00:33:55,880 --> 00:33:57,920
Speaker 2: this guy is for sure gonna win. But we see

645
00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 2: them with the trash cans to that he fought like Chandler.

646
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:12,200
Speaker 2: You don't think Chandler's very good Chandler Bobby Green Boot

647
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 2: King Green King Green boot to Ferguson, Tonya Ferguson. He

648
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 2: was on his Uh, he wasn't on his prime. You know,

649
00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:28,000
Speaker 2: he was losing eight ten fights. But if Tony Ferguson

650
00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:33,280
Speaker 2: was like five six years ago, he could like smash him.

651
00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 1: It would seem as though he would be the guy

652
00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:38,600
Speaker 1: that you would want to win because he seems to

653
00:34:38,680 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: know you, seems to want to fight you.

654
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:46,120
Speaker 2: He's the same buy like, uh like wanted to fight

655
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 2: me too, but not that anymore.

656
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:51,200
Speaker 1: You think that if Patty wins, he wouldn't fight you. Never,

657
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: he said, He's never been offered to fight against you.

658
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: That's why you guys haven't fought yet. I gotta ask

659
00:34:58,680 --> 00:34:58,880
Speaker 1: you all.

660
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:00,960
Speaker 2: This is just me doing my job. Man. Yeah, but

661
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:04,319
Speaker 2: like you see, you see, not gonna let him to

662
00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:09,520
Speaker 2: fight with me. They're gonna lose their star they think

663
00:35:09,600 --> 00:35:11,680
Speaker 2: he started. I don't know how they why they think

664
00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:15,200
Speaker 2: he is a star. I have no idea. This week,

665
00:35:15,719 --> 00:35:18,840
Speaker 2: everybody is talking more about me than about the Petty

666
00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:22,680
Speaker 2: University's gauge. You like, even like I see a couple

667
00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,320
Speaker 2: of clips. I didn't see all press conference from Yester,

668
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,920
Speaker 2: but I heard like four five questions was about me.

669
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,799
Speaker 1: Like a lot of questions are about you.

670
00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, but you know I can't imagine if I

671
00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,719
Speaker 2: was fighting this weekend what it could be for paramount

672
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,600
Speaker 2: and for the for the you see, I think could

673
00:35:40,640 --> 00:35:43,120
Speaker 2: be big me versus Petty.

674
00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:46,000
Speaker 1: So my question to you is this, right, you're confident

675
00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: that you I think you might be favored to be

676
00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:52,319
Speaker 1: almost everybody in the world. You enter poor year are

677
00:35:52,320 --> 00:35:55,959
Speaker 1: like super close in terms of the betting odds. Everybody else.

678
00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:57,719
Speaker 1: You guys kind of wipe.

679
00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,960
Speaker 2: Away right now. Yes, in our division is and me hollow,

680
00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 2: I know, Charles not. Yeah, it's because we are an

681
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 2: hour prime and we can box, we can wrestle, and

682
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 2: we never see the petty how he looks like with

683
00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 2: good fighters.

684
00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:17,080
Speaker 1: But you just said the poor guy too, No bullshy guy.

685
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 2: He's awarding me. Yeah, like a fight back, like a fighter.

686
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 2: He is a good fighter.

687
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,200
Speaker 1: Right, So you said the poor you won't fight. You

688
00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:24,799
Speaker 1: said you don't think Patty will fight you?

689
00:36:24,920 --> 00:36:28,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I'm bad style. Yeah, because I know how

690
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 2: to wrestle. If I was a good striker, he for

691
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:32,840
Speaker 2: sure he could take me. You know.

692
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:36,400
Speaker 1: So if that's the case, then how you're going to

693
00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: get your title fight?

694
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 2: Armit? How are you going to get your title fight?

695
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 2: I have no idea. So hopefully Gager wings and Gauge

696
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 2: you fight me. Yeah, Gaja wins Tapuria go up to

697
00:36:53,640 --> 00:36:56,160
Speaker 2: one seventy five was Islam, I'll fighter was Geije for

698
00:36:56,200 --> 00:36:59,879
Speaker 2: the interim title and then gag Tapuri is coming back

699
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 2: and that Beata and get the title.

700
00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:05,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be a fun fight. Yeah, I think

701
00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:07,319
Speaker 1: that'll be a really good fight. Yeah, but you have

702
00:37:07,400 --> 00:37:08,760
Speaker 1: to respect to fighting.

703
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:12,200
Speaker 2: No, yeah, for sure, for sure. Yeah, he has a

704
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,560
Speaker 2: he has a good power on the hands, like good boxing,

705
00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 2: good pressure and good AQ as well. So if he

706
00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:25,520
Speaker 2: missed the punch, he never like going crazy like he's

707
00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 2: like he's a good fighter.

708
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 1: Do you think that the winner this weekend fights the

709
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:32,839
Speaker 1: poor yus? So are you gonna fight again? Will you

710
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:33,440
Speaker 1: fight again?

711
00:37:33,520 --> 00:37:37,759
Speaker 2: In the meantime? No, I don't see anybody who I

712
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:45,080
Speaker 2: can't fight. So if Halloway beats Olivera, I can't fight Halloway.

713
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:48,880
Speaker 2: But I don't know you've seen it that or not,

714
00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 2: because seize money for me, but they can they can

715
00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,600
Speaker 2: give me that fight for even for BMF. It's good

716
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 2: to get BMF and then get that.

717
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,000
Speaker 1: If you get to be a title now you're holding

718
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:05,040
Speaker 1: that belt, that might diy Oh, Well, he's BMF champion champions, and.

719
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,760
Speaker 2: I want to be like an octave champion and DEFENDMF,

720
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 2: defend the real belt because I got five six years,

721
00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 2: you know, to work.

722
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 1: There's a lot of people in the world that believe

723
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,719
Speaker 1: that the reason you aren't fighting for the belt is

724
00:38:20,760 --> 00:38:23,799
Speaker 1: because of the style that you present for Taporia and

725
00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,480
Speaker 1: the rest of those guys in I tell you, man,

726
00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,839
Speaker 1: when I watch you fight, especially the way you fought

727
00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:32,040
Speaker 1: against Dan Hooker, it's gonna be very difficult for these

728
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,840
Speaker 1: guys to keep you off of them. How do you

729
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: fight the armed Serukian of today? If you were getting

730
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:41,760
Speaker 1: as an opponent, how do you fight the armed Seroukian

731
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 1: of today? Because I remember the Charles Oliver fight and

732
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 1: it wasn't as close as people say it was. It

733
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:50,279
Speaker 1: was a good fight, but you seem pretty comfortable in

734
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 1: that fight. But this Dan Hooker fight, you just dominated

735
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 1: him and it looked like you guys were on completely

736
00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 1: different levels and he was riding hot. How do you

737
00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,719
Speaker 1: fight armed Serukian day?

738
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:06,359
Speaker 2: So you gotta take him down first. You gotta try

739
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,600
Speaker 2: to take him down first, because if you're not gonna

740
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 2: try and take him down he's gonna take you down.

741
00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 2: So like, let's see like fighters, who is like who

742
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:19,200
Speaker 2: knows wrestling very well and who wants to try take

743
00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:21,399
Speaker 2: me down as well. He's going to be close fight,

744
00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,840
Speaker 2: you know, but like if you're gonna stay and strike me,

745
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 2: he's not going to help, you know.

746
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:33,200
Speaker 1: I I hope that you at some point get your opportunity.

747
00:39:33,480 --> 00:39:37,200
Speaker 2: No, no, I'll get I'll get my title fight. And

748
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:41,480
Speaker 2: we don't know what's going on with Pura, maybe he's

749
00:39:41,560 --> 00:39:44,400
Speaker 2: coming back and and the end of the year, so no,

750

Speaker 2: he said April.

751
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 1: He said he wants to fight in April, but Pemblet

752
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 1: said he won't fight that soon.

753
00:39:50,160 --> 00:39:53,600

Speaker 2: to Petty or Gaga. Who who Who's going to be

756
00:40:00,520 --> 00:40:02,000

Speaker 1: In more of the year, not tomorrow the next day?

758

Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean saying who's going to be champion

759
00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:08,160
Speaker 2: from them? Yeah? Yeah?

760
00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:10,359
Speaker 1: You and Elliot would be a tough fight, man.

761
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,759
Speaker 2: You fight, yeah, a good good fight, good fight.

762
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, it'd be a fantastic fight.

763
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 2: Yeah. I would like to watch that fight too.

764
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:20,120
Speaker 1: If you became UFC champion, what would it mean to you?

765
00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:25,120
Speaker 1: Just like seriously, because like you say, you started fighting

766
00:40:25,160 --> 00:40:27,520
Speaker 1: because it was kind of easy. You enjoy doing it

767
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,840
Speaker 1: now you love what you do. But if you became

768
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,160
Speaker 1: the UFC champion? What would it mean to you?

769
00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 2: Right now? It means a lot for me because I

770
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,400
Speaker 2: wanted so much. But I know when I became a champion,

771
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,080
Speaker 2: it's nothing for me. I want to be. I don't know,

772
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,240
Speaker 2: It's like in my life like this. So for example,

773
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,919
Speaker 2: when I was young, I wanted like special car. Right,

774
00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:51,720
Speaker 2: I get the car. First day, I'm happy. The second

775
00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:54,560

797
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 2: a long time. It was a time. So I would

798
00:41:59,040 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 2: like to have two bulls on my on my shoulders.

799
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:07,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and like run one of the best things that

800
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:09,759
Speaker 1: I enjoyed doing. When I would win a belt, I

801
00:42:09,920 --> 00:42:12,640
Speaker 1: love giving it to my dad, Like I always go

802
00:42:12,719 --> 00:42:14,759
Speaker 1: to the back. I would give the belt to my

803
00:42:14,840 --> 00:42:17,680
Speaker 1: dad and he could say, well, my son's a world champion, right,

804
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:20,759
Speaker 1: who would you want to do that with? Like is

805
00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,160
Speaker 1: there a person like your father? Would you walk to him?

806
00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,680
Speaker 1: And just because it always feels good when when your

807
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:27,719
Speaker 1: father says to you, good job.

808
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:30,960

809
00:42:31,000 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 2: be in the kids. If not to give it to

810
00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:37,560
Speaker 2: the coach, it's good too, because coaches work harder than me.

811
00:42:37,680 --> 00:42:41,520
Speaker 2: You know they worry more than me because you fight there,

812
00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,799
Speaker 2: you don't worry about that, but coach cannot control you there.

813
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:47,279
Speaker 2: You know, that's why they worry. And I would like

814
00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,319
Speaker 2: to to give to the coach as well.

815
00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,359
Speaker 1: Why'd you why did you put your dad in your

816
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,800
Speaker 1: corner last time? Who your dad was in the corner

817
00:42:53,840 --> 00:42:55,160
Speaker 1: last time? Why why did you do this?

818
00:42:55,280 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 2: No? He wasn't like he was walking like that the

819
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:02,360
Speaker 2: first time he's going through if I Yeah, why because

820
00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,920
Speaker 2: I was fighting in US and he doesn't have a visa. Okay, okay,

821
00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:10,800
Speaker 2: that's why he cannot get visa. So all these times

822
00:43:10,800 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 2: that you're here in the United States. Yeah, he never

823
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:14,080
Speaker 2: he never was in my fights.

824
00:43:14,400 --> 00:43:17,320
Speaker 1: Wow, that's kind of crazy. That's sad, actually, Kabibs that

825
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:19,279
Speaker 1: couldn't get to his fights towards the end of his

826
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:19,799
Speaker 1: life too.

827
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:22,560
Speaker 2: That's why my last fight was in Doha so he

828
00:43:22,640 --> 00:43:26,840
Speaker 2: could come and watch my fight. Yeah, he was super excited.

829
00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,600
Speaker 2: Did he enjoy it before he thought that you fight

830
00:43:29,640 --> 00:43:32,400
Speaker 2: would make it dumb? No, he enjoyed and like he's

831
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:38,200
Speaker 2: like after he's he he wrestled the polroom. But have

832
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,759
Speaker 2: you seen the video? And he throw them put to

833
00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:43,919

00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:45,600
Speaker 1: What does your mom make of all this?

835
00:43:46,640 --> 00:43:49,920
Speaker 2: No, she doesn't. She doesn't watch fights, and does she

836
00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,439
Speaker 2: watched it after when she knows that you want. No,

837
00:43:53,680 --> 00:43:57,680
Speaker 2: she just watched maybe on Instagram some reels. That's it why,

838
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:03,359
Speaker 2: because she wore. She'd worry about my health, you know,

839
00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:07,399
Speaker 2: and it's hard to watch. Maybe something happened during the fight,

840
00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:09,320
Speaker 2: miss the miss punching.

841
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:12,160
Speaker 1: Or my mom would sit in the front and she

00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:15,399
Speaker 1: never watched. Really, she would sit there with her head

843
