Speaker 1: hundred and seventy six wins an amateur. I don't know

21
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,440
Speaker 1: how many losses he had, but the fact you have

22
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: two d seventy six wins is already a ridiculous amount

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 1: of fights to have had as a young kid. Sean

00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,919

26
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,640
Speaker 1: the He's the devil on Sean's shoulder. He says the

27
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: ship that Shawn will not say. And Kenny is a

28
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: real dude, and I love I love both of himselves

29
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 1: very much. We also have a drop in cameo appearance.

30
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,280
Speaker 1: But my good friend and comedy brother Ruben Paul, who

31
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 1: always finds his way to make a conversation. Bet he's

32
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,840
Speaker 1: he's just good like that, you know what I mean.

33
00:01:39,880 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 1: I called him and I said, yeah, I'm doing my

34
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 1: podcast today, and Reuben shout up a little late because

35
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,400
Speaker 1: he's Haitian, that's what happens, and um, but but he

36
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: added to it and it was a great episode. But listen, now,

37
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 1: chill out. Grab a cigar or whatever you want to grab,

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: just don't grab somebody that doesn't want to be grabbed,

39
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 1: because that's the problem. Nowadays, that's the problem. All was

40
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: actually this problem any days. Anyway, enjoy the show. I

41
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: just saw somebody post a sketch like a like a

42
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,959
Speaker 1: TikTok video, and it was it was basically it was

43
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 1: your joke. But they have now now the kids think

44
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 1: they're discovering ship, right, so so they're taking what we

45
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 1: said then acting it out and acting like they just

46
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: came up with this ship. And it was a video

47
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:19,920
Speaker 1: of a black guy just hanging out the stairwell and

48
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: then some other black kid runs past, and the other

49
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: black guy starts ring and just like how black Well,

50
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 1: I love how black people just we know how to

51
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 1: run when we see somebody run. And then I was like,

52
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,640
Speaker 1: that SAIDs fucking joke, what do you mean? But they

53
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: don't say, like it's not it's not a voice over

54
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: of view, just like somebody acting it out, and you're like, man,

55
00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: this is some bullshit. They did that same one. What

56
00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 1: they did they have my voice under it like at

57
00:02:39,880 --> 00:02:41,720
Speaker 1: one point in time. But then you're right, but then

58
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 1: like people act like it's their own joke, like now

59
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,760
Speaker 1: you know, like yeah, and they'll get more famous off

60
00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,280
Speaker 1: of your ship, even if they do it with your voice.

61
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:51,119
Speaker 1: They'll get more famous than you were from it. That's

62
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 1: the thing. Like you couldn't even trade mark jokes in

63
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 1: a way like you know, you see people like even

64
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,560
Speaker 1: getting away with like like like when Paris, He'll like

65
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,240
Speaker 1: was just straight like that? Or you think about all

66
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:04,399
Speaker 1: the stuff you said, yeah that ended up being cash frez,

67
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 1: Like I I was thinking about that the other day.

68
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: Even throw kings of comedy like grown ass Man Dog,

69
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 1: grown ass Man is because of you. You'd be like,

70
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: but you don't get no like writer's credit for that,

71
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: you know. But I never said grown ass man until

72
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:21,680
Speaker 1: I saw you say it, right, and and then it

73
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:25,400
Speaker 1: became a thing to the point where it's it's it's

74
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:28,400
Speaker 1: cool that you can pinpoint where it started from, but

75
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: there's a lot of things that started like that. We

76
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: don't like you, Lye, you're just lying. It's a girl.

77
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,800
Speaker 1: I'm a grown ass man. Hell I got to lie

78
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:40,120
Speaker 1: about right, your ass out of here, right, it's my house,

79
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: my grown ass man, and all the base being there

80
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: and ship you know, you know, all the base being

81
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 1: that Sean was doing some one time. I ain't like, man,

82
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:49,560
Speaker 1: I'm a grown ass man. What's wrong with you? Shawn?

83
00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,560
Speaker 1: That's wild man. You raised the champ, you got other

84
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: you got other kids. Like it's like I had two

85
00:03:59,560 --> 00:04:02,560
Speaker 1: boys in the girl um and and mother son was

86
00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: a national champion on amateur side, you know, numerous times,

87
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: but he didn't move on to the pros. And my

88
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: daughter had one fight, she won that little thing we

89
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: did with MTV and then she retired, she retired to

90
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: undefeate it. So you think that isn't that we were

91
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:17,800
Speaker 1: just talking about this the other day. Is that a

92
00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: natural thing for the kids to do, Like, so you

93
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:21,920
Speaker 1: were in you were in the fight game, and so

94
00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: your kids, you know, they spend time with you. Is

95
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 1: that usually you think that's just the natural thing that

96
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,480
Speaker 1: kids gonna be assimilate to what their kids their parents

97
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:32,640
Speaker 1: do in the real way. That made me think about

98
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:34,520
Speaker 1: without getting all that to the ship, but when when

99
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 1: you're in a separate relationship, right and you gotta raise

100
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 1: your kids, and my mom got one thing and then

101
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,600
Speaker 1: the dad trying to do this, those things become even

102
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 1: more important. Yeah, I think the kid leans towards whichever

103
00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,120
Speaker 1: parent is more successful. You think, so, like, look at

104
00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: your son, he's doing stand up now, Yeah, but he tried.

105
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: God is God blessing him. He needs enough, that's what

106
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,560
Speaker 1: That's what I see up well, as also reason the

107
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: wrong time right now because it's really hard to work

108
00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,920
Speaker 1: right he can just go up on stage. I gotta

109
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,520
Speaker 1: give him a little help of a little pass on

110
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:09,440
Speaker 1: that one. It is the wrong time right now. Could

111
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: we introduce these wonderful Yeah, what I was gonna do

112
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,560

140

141
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,400

142
00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,400

143
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:57,840

00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: at it. You know. Thing one thing too Sean. I

147
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,599
Speaker 1: was surprised that I like to Like immediately was the

148
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,200
Speaker 1: fact that you you know you you you're definitely, you know,

149
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,160
Speaker 1: one of the top tier fighters out there. But then

150
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: your broadcast, the fact that you were so ambitious about it,

151
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 1: Like I thought that you jumped into it and had

152
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,880
Speaker 1: a great time with it, you know, a good laugh,

153
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:24,840
Speaker 1: good attitude with it. And I was like, oh, dude,

160
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 1: What was that about for me? I'm keeping real, Like

161
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 1: the very first time I went on the set and

163
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,120
Speaker 1: my my dressing room, and I looked at myself in

164
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,360

Speaker 1: and It's like I tell people, I feel like I

169
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: could have came out here with a clown suit on

170
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,680

Speaker 1: there by eleven years. And uh and I told my boss,

305
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 1: I said, man, I'm uh, I'm gonna be leaving him.

306
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,720
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need to turn this in and uh, you

307
00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: know I need that money. And he said, this is

308
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,640
Speaker 1: a bad idea. Can this is a bad idea, don't

309
00:15:51,640 --> 00:15:55,520
Speaker 1: do it. But that's interesting to bet on myself and uh,

310
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,320
Speaker 1: bet on my kid, on your kid, on your baby.

311
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: Got that, I say? And then you know that the

312
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,080
Speaker 1: idea that people use the turn of hustler, you know

313
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 1: that's a thing that like kids use. That's just right

314
00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 1: that that and then and then you know ingrain that

315
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,920
Speaker 1: in a kid where either the expectation is to see

316
00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 1: that you've been in the world and you can see

317
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:22,400
Speaker 1: other champions and then somehow, you know, the kids affiliate

318
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,600
Speaker 1: that with you and say, I that this should be

319
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 1: automatic for me. Right, But you gotta you know, you

320
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: gotta teach that grind, teach that hustle. You got a

321
00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 1: kid now to right you know, well will be three

322
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 1: this week. Yeah, so you know that's that's that's the

323
00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:39,920
Speaker 1: that's that thing that I founded. My son it's twenty now,

324
00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:43,600
Speaker 1: and you know he definitely been a privileged kid, but

325
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 1: he's a good dude. Like, he's a good kid. And

326
00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,120
Speaker 1: it's that thing right where you want to keep trying

327
00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 1: to instill in him the idea that your ideas right now,

328
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 1: even the stuff that you it ain't necessarily thing that's

329
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,760
Speaker 1: gonna define you. So you ain't gotta say you don't

330
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 1: want to do something like you know, like you like

331
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,440

00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,560
Speaker 1: like and that that kind of that that kind of

336
00:17:14,760 --> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 1: you know, mentality of putting ship in your basket. I

337
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: like to call it like, you know, you gotta push

338
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 1: it in your basket man, so that when you when

339
00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:24,440
Speaker 1: you get you wherever you're going, you got resources, You

340
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 1: got a bunch of little stuff that's like, uh oh,

341
00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:28,720
Speaker 1: I can do a little bit of this. I can

342
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,840
Speaker 1: add this to that. And you know, yeah where I

343
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 1: went to Southeast Missouri, so yeah, and my mother was

344
00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: a school teacher. So that was the kind of thing.

345
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,359
Speaker 1: But I always knew that I was an entertainment Like

346
00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 1: when I was little as a kid, you know, like

347
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 1: most kids, you see the Fame Show, and I was like,

348
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 1: I can do all of that, Like I could sing,

349
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:52,640
Speaker 1: I could dance. I was like, I used to tell

350
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:54,719
Speaker 1: my mom, I could do all that stuff, mom, like

351
00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,200
Speaker 1: you know, and she was just you know, she from

352
00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:00,000
Speaker 1: a little small town when we moved to St. Little

353
00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:04,520
Speaker 1: was so as an educated single parents. She raised me

354
00:18:04,560 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 1: and my sisters. So she she a young black woman.

355
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,560
Speaker 1: She just ain't taking no chances like that, right. You know,

356
00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 1: it's like you gotta go to school, you gotta get

357
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:15,400
Speaker 1: a degree. This is what I know, right, And that's

358
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,439
Speaker 1: the that was the way she did it. So you know,

359
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:20,560
Speaker 1: it was that it was that aspect of life. So

360
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:23,640
Speaker 1: I didn't really start my career too. I was an adult.

361
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 1: I was twenty six the first time I got on Wow. Yeah,

362
00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 1: I worked a bunch of dumb jobs. I didn't go

363
00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:31,480
Speaker 1: to college or nothing. I couldn't. It wasn't on the

364
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 1: table for me I have. I wouldn't know what to

365
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:36,280
Speaker 1: do I'm gonna doing. I hated school to begin with.

366
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,359
Speaker 1: I was a shitty student. I don't like authority, so

367
00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 1: I just started so doing stand up a nineteen. But

368
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 1: I was still working. Like I sold fucking socks door door,

369
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:52,040
Speaker 1: I sold fake watches, I sold should I sold little

370

Speaker 1: hash back in the day, a little weed, you know,

371
00:18:55,160 --> 00:19:04,840

410
00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:13,639
Speaker 1: pretty productive, but this past year has been another story.

411
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,639
Speaker 1: Now that the world is finally starting to turn again,

412
00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:18,680
Speaker 1: I'm ready to pick up the pace and make things

413
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: happen people. I'm doing shows, I'm selling merch, and it

414
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,760
Speaker 1: feels really good to get back in the swing of things.

415
00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:27,640
Speaker 1: And speaking of merch, you know, you might have some merch,

416
00:21:27,920 --> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: or I might have some merch. Somebody will have. Listen,

417
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: we're all selling stuff. We all need to sell stuff,

418
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 1: so we all need to make money. And if you're

419
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: selling stuff at home online, you know more people are

420
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: shopping online anyway. That's why I think all online sellers

421
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,199
Speaker 1: need ship station in order to function well and be

422
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,479
Speaker 1: as productive as possible. I mean, no matter how much

423
00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:50,240
Speaker 1: you sell. Ship Station makes it super easy to manage

424
00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: and ship all your orders from your sales channels faster, cheaper,

425
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:58,439
Speaker 1: and more efficiently. Ships Station allows sellers to import orders

426
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 1: from any sales channel, ship with any carrier, access discount

427
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 1: of shipping rates, and automate just about any shipping task.

428
00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 1: By doing all the heavy shipping, ship Station allows you

429
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,679
Speaker 1: to think more about other stuff that isn't shipping. And

430
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: that's a beautiful thing because I don't really want to

431
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 1: think about shipping that much because, to be honest, I

432
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,879
Speaker 1: got enough ship on my plate. You all know that

433
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,639
Speaker 1: I like to be a man and find a good deal.

434
00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,080
Speaker 1: I'm good at it. But ship Station is good at

435
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:29,119
Speaker 1: it too. They can get you fantastic discounts with major

436
00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: carriers like UPS, FedEx and USPS, and they make it

437
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,000
Speaker 1: easy for you to compare shipping services so that you

438
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:38,159
Speaker 1: find the best deal. You don't have to haggle for

439
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 1: a good price. Because ship Station has your back, they'll

440
00:22:40,840 --> 00:22:43,639
Speaker 1: find you killer deals that are usually reserved for Fortune

441
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: five companies. And that makes me feel kind of fancy.

442
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: No matter where you're selling, Amazon et see your own website.

443

447

Speaker 1: ship happen. I was trying to get to the strategies

457
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:45,520
Speaker 1: of how do you kind of like when when marketing

458
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,560
Speaker 1: wind building a brand, right, and you've got all these

459
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:49,520
Speaker 1: kind of upwards and you know, and you take chances

460
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,959
Speaker 1: on any fight, right, even no matter how great you are,

461
00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: you're out there against another opponent, right, and you can say, yeah,

462
00:23:57,240 --> 00:23:59,879
Speaker 1: any given night, these things can happen. But do you

463
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,400
Speaker 1: make these choices like That's one thing too. I think

464
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:05,800
Speaker 1: it's a stigma of boxing that people will try to

465
00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:10,639
Speaker 1: ultimately control that so much that the fan We're like, y'all,

466
00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,280
Speaker 1: come on man, like y'all, y'all, y'all ain't fighting the

467
00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,239
Speaker 1: real dude, Like you know what I'm saying, because it's like,

468
00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,199
Speaker 1: all right, I need to I need to get my

469
00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:20,320
Speaker 1: guy right here so I can get this money. Right?

470
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,120
Speaker 1: Is that truly the strategy in most cases, like at

471
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:29,359
Speaker 1: stand ups, we start out just really trying to be

472
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,600
Speaker 1: funny and just go and then yeah, when it starts

473
00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,000
Speaker 1: to be a money business, then you do. You can't

474
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 1: just you can't put yourself on stage with it any

475
00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 1: every with any and everybody. You gotta be like yo,

476
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,560
Speaker 1: even though you might have love, you'd be like yo,

477
00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,320
Speaker 1: I just can't go on stage with with any and

478
00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,800
Speaker 1: everybody because it'll it'll mess up the brand that I'm building.

479
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:52,159
Speaker 1: That's my lane, you know. So I mean I'm just

480
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,040
Speaker 1: imagining that's the same thing while also making sure that

481
00:24:56,080 --> 00:25:02,080
Speaker 1: you're significant and and that people respect your your skill set. Right. Yeah,

482
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: that's true in a lot of ways. And you can

483
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: equated to the entertainment business that you guys are involved with.

484
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,119
Speaker 1: Both businesses at the end of the day, like I

485
00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 1: it happens to comics all the time, Like, well, I

486
00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 1: got approach it, like, hey, why don't we put you

487
00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:20,359
Speaker 1: on a tour with the Said and George and d L.

488
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,800
Speaker 1: And I'm like, I have a completely different audience. I'm

489
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,880
Speaker 1: gonna eat a fat dick on their show. I'm not

490
00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:27,919
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna do

491
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: what I did at the trip. That reminds me was

492
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 1: when I did my My Chicago's But he was my partner,

493
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,600
Speaker 1: right and I was like telling him, like Russ, you

494
00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:39,199
Speaker 1: one of the best, right you could do this, And

495
00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:41,080
Speaker 1: he was like said, I don't know, And I was like,

496
00:25:41,080 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: you could do this. And it was one of those

497
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:46,119
Speaker 1: things that I feel that he had already gotten his

498
00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,720
Speaker 1: head that it wasn't gonna go well, and he kind

499
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:52,320
Speaker 1: of manifested it towards the energy. Do you have to

500
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,800
Speaker 1: not do that? Like I mean, I feel like boxes

501
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,600
Speaker 1: always have a certain confidence, like like you know, like

502
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,840
Speaker 1: people people, your Bud Crawford this thing, like I like

503
00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:04,720
Speaker 1: he the guy. Now I saw vulnerabilities the last fight,

504
00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 1: so then I would say, like a boxer was looking

505
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:10,439
Speaker 1: at that and going like, even when I thought he

506
00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 1: was like you know, maybe if you're coming up and

507
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: you're like, okay, that's the top, dude, I may give

508
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:19,680
Speaker 1: miss props. Even Earl Spence Junior last fight, I was like, Okay,

509
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: I see some flaws. The problem with Sean is when

510
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: you look at him as a fighter, he's not the

511
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:30,000
Speaker 1: guy that's gonna give you au easy night for a period.

512
00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,760
Speaker 1: That's what he reminds me of like My Donna to

513
00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:35,560
Speaker 1: a certain degree, where he just throws punches from places

514
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,639
Speaker 1: you didn't think they were gonna come from, which I

515
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 1: think would be an incredible fighters if you found My Donna,

516
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,600
Speaker 1: because you know he's in camp and he's making trying

517
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 1: to get down to Wait now, I'm just saying that, man,

518
00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:48,080
Speaker 1: I think that that ship itself. Man, that fight, to

519
00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:51,120
Speaker 1: me would be the scrap of the century because you've

520
00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:53,360
Speaker 1: got two guys with no quit in them. A lot

521
00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,639
Speaker 1: of people wanted to see that at one point. I

522
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 1: want to see that at this point that exactly. That's

523
00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,040
Speaker 1: exactly what happened in Firel Spence Jr. Before that he

524
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:05,080
Speaker 1: was invincible, he was he was like you know, he

525
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:07,719
Speaker 1: was a superman. And then after I laid hands on him.

526
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,639
Speaker 1: It was like everybody got this newfound confidence that they

527
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 1: could use some things to him. You know. Well, like,

528
00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,439
Speaker 1: first of all, I'm a huge fan of yours and

529
00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 1: a huge boxing fan just in general. But when I

530
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:22,600
Speaker 1: think about you, like you're the fighter, a lot of

531
00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:26,239
Speaker 1: fighters don't want to fight because number one, even if

532
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 1: they're fortunate enough to even to be able to beat you,

533
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 1: they're never gonna look good against you. Like no one

534
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,840
Speaker 1: if any loss you've had, nobody looks good against you.

535
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,240
Speaker 1: Nobody beat you. Nobody's beating you. They may have got

536
00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 1: a w but that didn't mean they they didn't earn

537
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 1: respect from that fight. They all got showed like yo,

538
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: you got fucking holes a rematch, you know what I mean?

539
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 1: So my question for you, like he's like, now that's

540
00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:54,760
Speaker 1: my point. So how hard even at your level, having't

541
00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:58,280
Speaker 1: been a world champion, you you fight every You're willing

542
00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 1: to fight everybody. How hard is it? It's unfortunate that

543
00:28:02,119 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: I imagine it's still hard for you to get fights.

544
00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:07,160
Speaker 1: That's the fight. Interesting part is like now everybody's trying

545
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,640
Speaker 1: to figure out how can I go over sean porter

546
00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,720
Speaker 1: and fight somebody else. That's that's where everything is at

547
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:14,760
Speaker 1: right now. Yeah. The only ducking and diving the doing

548
00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:18,960
Speaker 1: is around you, yea, so well in building the business

549
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:20,639
Speaker 1: like you know, like you said, we're talking about the

550
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,159
Speaker 1: younger fighters, they're not in the same category. And this

551
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: kind of came up with the Condo McGregor thing. And

552
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:26,840
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's a totally different but the

553
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,360
Speaker 1: fact that he didn't have the amount of fights, right,

554
00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,760
Speaker 1: he didn't get the chance to sharpen the knife, work

555
00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 1: to blade enough to in order to be at that

556
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: professional level when people are ducking you going over what

557
00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,120
Speaker 1: do you do? In that introim? What is the thing?

558
00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:44,520
Speaker 1: Did you see my last fight, which one was that

559
00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 1: I fought for Mela. It was back in underbeated German

560
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 1: fighter and you defeated him, Yeah, and I and I

561
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,920
Speaker 1: beat him. I beat him my hands down every single round.

562
00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 1: I want. Nobody had heard of from Mela. He's an

563
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,240
Speaker 1: undefeated fighter. The only fighter we can get in the

564
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:06,400
Speaker 1: ring with me at this point in time where everything

565
00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:09,680
Speaker 1: going on. So we did it. Decision this It was

566
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 1: a twelve round decision. Yep. Right out here in l A. Yeah,

567
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:20,160
Speaker 1: uh uh, where do we fight the microft Microsoft theater, right,

568
00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 1: But there was no audience, right, no audience. I remember

569
00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,800
Speaker 1: there wasn't that the first fight that they had no

570
00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,440
Speaker 1: audience for first five? No, I wasn't the first one

571
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 1: of them. I think it was the second fight for Fox,

572
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,160
Speaker 1: the second fight for Fox. I think overall, I think

573
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,880
Speaker 1: it was the fifth fight overall. Yeah. But anyway, my

574
00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: point is a fighter that nobody knew, fighter that we

575
00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 1: knew watching watching video that we were gonna beat him

576
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: hands down. I still prepared for him as if I

577
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,200
Speaker 1: was getting the ring with aerospence Danny Garcia. I think

578
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 1: that's the biggest mistake most fight Crawford. They always looked

579
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 1: through the guy and when you trained and prepared the

580
00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:59,480
Speaker 1: way you're supposed to. I personally don't believe believe in

581
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 1: ring run, but I think it's a myth. But people

582
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 1: talk about en Russ in this situation where Connor McGregor,

583
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: you took so long off, you probably should have been

584
00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 1: training a little bit harder or doing some things differently,

585
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 1: and training that way, you had taken yourself to a

586
00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,560
Speaker 1: fight level. That way, when it's time to fight, you're

587
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 1: at that level. I think the problem with Connor is

588
00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: that he's so so much of a character. He he

589
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,720
Speaker 1: worked on being the character as much as he worked

590
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,560
Speaker 1: on I think he worked on being the character maintaining

591
00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:30,600
Speaker 1: the character harder than he worked in the gym, and

592
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:34,080
Speaker 1: he looked physically. The even tougher part about it is

593
00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:37,000
Speaker 1: now that energy is so far towards being the character

594
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,600
Speaker 1: that even in the loss, you can't you can't get

595
00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:43,360
Speaker 1: yourself together the correct way and the loss because you

596
00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,600
Speaker 1: still got to be that character. You've got to have

597
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:47,640
Speaker 1: that energy. And you can see the sparkle a lot

598
00:30:47,680 --> 00:30:49,400
Speaker 1: of fighters when they lose that sparkle in their eyes

599
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:51,320
Speaker 1: when they're getting the ring, and like, this guy is

600
00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:53,120
Speaker 1: not who he used to be. I could see it,

601
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 1: Like I watched the highlights and I can see it.

602
00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 1: As the fight started. You just see it was something

603
00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:58,920
Speaker 1: a little different with him. Yeah, he didn't do that.

604
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: He didn't do the little all the walk thing, like

605
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,520
Speaker 1: none of the stuff. Yeah. Like you're like, hey, dog,

606
00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 1: like you're not having fun with it right now. You're

607
00:31:06,480 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 1: thinking about like you need to win this fight and

608
00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,800
Speaker 1: you you you're now you're now you know, Like like

609
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 1: we hear young people talk about worried about their brand,

610
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,800
Speaker 1: like be funny what is your brand? You know, you know,

611
00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:22,160
Speaker 1: you know what I like in it too, And I

612
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,960
Speaker 1: think this is something that I think this is probably

613
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 1: what's gotten into Eddie Murphy's head, is that Eddie has

614
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 1: been away from stand up so long. When he comes

615
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:33,240
Speaker 1: back to it, Eddie, Eddie is a smart enough guy

616
00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,280
Speaker 1: because he watches it and he pays attention. Eddie's very

617
00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 1: in tune with everything that's going on in the world

618
00:31:38,240 --> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: and around him. It's funny as hell still, but people

619
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,959
Speaker 1: are gonna expect Eddie to be Eddie from then but right,

620
00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:48,120
Speaker 1: so they don't give your room for growth. So if

621
00:31:48,240 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 1: Eddie comes out and act like how Eddie is, which

622
00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:54,080
Speaker 1: is what he should do, right, he may get caught

623
00:31:54,120 --> 00:31:55,760
Speaker 1: in the trap of trying to do an impression of

624
00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 1: what he used to do. Well. That's usually what happens.

625
00:31:58,400 --> 00:32:01,840
Speaker 1: I mean that, you know, that's the fear of the failure,

626
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 1: right like you know, which is when you're young and

627
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,560
Speaker 1: you're coming up, it's less of a fear even if

628
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 1: you even if you have a loss right like as

629
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,480
Speaker 1: a as a stand up when you're coming up, you

630
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:16,400
Speaker 1: bomb you have a bad night, you just don't identify

631
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,360
Speaker 1: yourself as that because of the other nights that you killed, right.

632
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: But the more you become famous and you have it

633
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,720
Speaker 1: and you know, and then nowadays with more people having

634
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 1: accessibility and something is saying and people repeating it and

635
00:32:29,760 --> 00:32:33,160
Speaker 1: you turn into a meme and all these things, right, you,

636
00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 1: these are the things that allow you that can at

637
00:32:36,440 --> 00:32:39,560
Speaker 1: this stage of success, which is you know, the thing

638
00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:43,320
Speaker 1: you gotta be careful of. Like the more your branding becomes,

639
00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,080
Speaker 1: you know, like you said, you you do great at

640
00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 1: the Olympics, right, you do great, you know, commentating and

641
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,920
Speaker 1: then you come out and then you have a fight

642
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,760
Speaker 1: where you don't shine everybody, like you need stuff that microphone,

643
00:32:54,880 --> 00:32:58,120
Speaker 1: right exactly, it's it's it's the same of the young comics.

644
00:32:58,160 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 1: When I seell these young comics who are willing to

645
00:33:00,560 --> 00:33:03,160
Speaker 1: get on stage and and do it anytime anywhere. I

646
00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 1: remember being that guy and that ship leaves you after

647
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: a while, you go fun. I don't want to I

648
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:10,160
Speaker 1: don't want to suck on this one. Then people start

649
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:13,920
Speaker 1: thinking he's deteriorated. What Cedric says something interesting about protecting

650
00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,640
Speaker 1: your brand, And it's actually one thing that bothers me about.

651
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 1: I'm not a big UFC guy. I love boxing. But

652
00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:25,040
Speaker 1: it just seems like nowadays fighters are so concerned about

653
00:33:25,080 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 1: being undefeated, where like I said, you'll fight anybody, but

654
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:31,560
Speaker 1: people will dodge because they want to keep that zero.

655
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,120
Speaker 1: That was a criticism of Mayweather for a long time

656
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: is he wants to keep that undefeated mark. Where in

657
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:40,720
Speaker 1: UFC losses don't hurt fighters, you know what I mean?

658
00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 1: And I don't think you know that. It definitely does,

659
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 1: it does, but it seems like they in a different

660
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:50,680
Speaker 1: because it actually lower them. No, it lowers them way

661
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:54,480
Speaker 1: faster than it does in't boxing. Yeah, because it depending

662
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 1: on how they lost, Like when Connor listen, it's it's

663
00:33:58,280 --> 00:34:00,840
Speaker 1: it's in boxing, it depending on how you lose as well,

664
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: Like yeah, you you didn't get a couple of w's,

665
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 1: but nobody looks at you like a loser, do you

666
00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:08,279
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So you got a lot of

667
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:10,400
Speaker 1: these fighters they get that get gin checked, or they

668
00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,800
Speaker 1: get choked out or whatever, and it shows a hole

669
00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:16,880
Speaker 1: in their arsenal. So boxing you can go back, you

670
00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 1: can fix or maybe I did this, but I didn't

671
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,360
Speaker 1: do enough of that. But a lot of times for

672
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,560
Speaker 1: these guys, like when Connor got choked out by Cobibe

673
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:26,560
Speaker 1: got choked out cold, but then he's still He's still

674
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:30,279
Speaker 1: headline in a major thing after being laid off. I know.

675
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:34,520
Speaker 1: But that you gotta understand. Connor is a very elite situation.

676
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,840
Speaker 1: He's He's what Mayweather is to boxing. He's what whatever

677
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,279
Speaker 1: a big football guy is to football, you know, like

678
00:34:41,320 --> 00:34:44,560
Speaker 1: Tom Brady. Like you know, so those guys get a

679
00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 1: pass on certain things because it's kind of like, oh, well,

680
00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: maybe that was a fluke. You know why. I heard

681
00:34:50,600 --> 00:34:54,759
Speaker 1: him back to Mohammad Ali and Norton and Foreman and

682
00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:57,560
Speaker 1: all those guys. You know, they used to lose fight

683
00:34:57,640 --> 00:35:00,239
Speaker 1: and it never seemed to diminish their statu This has

684
00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: been great fighters. Like You've had a couple of losses,

685
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,720
Speaker 1: but I don't I still see you as a great

686
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:08,240
Speaker 1: fight and I think it's cool. I wish more people

687
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:12,040
Speaker 1: would just fight, just fight. Who cares? You know what

688
00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:14,680
Speaker 1: I mean? Because anybody can win on any given nothing. Yeah,

689
00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:18,279
Speaker 1: I'm blessed, and I think that my mindset is by

690
00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:21,040
Speaker 1: any means necessary, That's that's just what I do when

691
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,120
Speaker 1: I go on the ring, and I've told this to

692
00:35:24,120 --> 00:35:26,239
Speaker 1: tons of people. You see me in the ring throwing

693
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,960
Speaker 1: a hundred punches around and you're thinking that, you may

694
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,879
Speaker 1: even think that I'm not thinking. I'm just going out

695
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: there and punching and and that's it. But it's very

696
00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,640
Speaker 1: very fast, and it's very calculated. But at those points

697
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:38,720
Speaker 1: in times when I'm throwing a whole bunch of punches

698
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:40,680
Speaker 1: whill I'm rough up on somebody and I'm throwing them

699
00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,279
Speaker 1: up against ropes or anything like that, I'm smart enough

700
00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:44,680
Speaker 1: to do what I need to do. But at that

701
00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:46,600
Speaker 1: point in time I'm doing I'm doing what I feel

702
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 1: like I need to do to win the fight, you know.

703
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:51,759
Speaker 1: And I think that that's a separation with myself and

704
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,719
Speaker 1: a lot of guys, is they're not willing to do

705
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: everything that it takes to win a fight, do everything

706
00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: that's that it takes to even get prepared for certain

707
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,640
Speaker 1: fighters where I am. And I think that there are

708
00:36:03,680 --> 00:36:06,080
Speaker 1: a lot of people have said because I've lost, I'm

709
00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 1: not afraid to lose, and that's not the truth. The

710
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,239
Speaker 1: truth is I did what I what I felt like

711
00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:13,120
Speaker 1: I needed to do in those fights, and even though

712
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: I didn't win, I'm still willing to go out there

713
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,239
Speaker 1: against whoever it is and fight them. And I think

714
00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: a lot of guys are still at this point in time,

715
00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:24,479
Speaker 1: we're stuck on that. Um, I'm undefeated, and the only

716
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,000
Speaker 1: thing that matters in the boxing game is if you

717
00:36:27,040 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 1: have an undefeated record, I think it's gonna go away.

718
00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:31,480
Speaker 1: You see a lot of that has a lot of

719
00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:35,359
Speaker 1: these young guys are getting in the ring lost now

720
00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 1: Now are people are gonna go, well, he's lost it

721
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:40,359
Speaker 1: now they go, you gotta wait to see You've seen

722
00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: that a lot of people are like saying, you know,

723
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: they're right and right and listen, let's let's see what it.

724
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: I always say, let's see what their follow up fight

725
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 1: looks like. Yeah, do you think it's Uh, this is

726
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:53,960
Speaker 1: a question for you. Also, do you think it's the

727
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 1: promoters sometimes who are dictating fighters being hesitant to fight

728
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:02,759
Speaker 1: other people just because they're afraid to lose, because it's

729
00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,359
Speaker 1: a money thing. They feel they can position you better

730
00:37:05,400 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 1: to make a bigger payday if you have an undefeated

731
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:11,760
Speaker 1: record as opposed to having two losses and three losses

732
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,799
Speaker 1: or Yeah, that has a lot to do with it,

733
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:17,720
Speaker 1: along with social media has a lot to do with it. Uh,

734
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 1: you know that's a big thing in everybody's mind. They

735
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 1: feel that way, you know, and I'm a point to

736
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:27,359
Speaker 1: finger at him, and not because he's my fighter, just

737
00:37:27,480 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 1: because this is actually what happened. If you've got a

738
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:34,920
Speaker 1: different opinion, that's fine, right, But boxing is all about opinions.

739
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,640
Speaker 1: Unlike the other sports. This is a business. The other

740
00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,759
Speaker 1: sports are actually sports. This is a business. So when

741
00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 1: we look at football, basketball, baseball, you know, you scored

742
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,279
Speaker 1: a touchdown, the points go up on the board, you

743
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 1: shoot the three pointer, the points go up on the board,

744
00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 1: you get the home run, you know, the points go

745
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:58,000
Speaker 1: up on the board. Boxing is an opinion. At the

746
00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 1: end of that round, everybody just watching it and those

747
00:38:01,080 --> 00:38:04,640
Speaker 1: judges sitting around and give their opinion. I think he

748
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 1: won that round, right, But because we're talking about business

749
00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:13,919
Speaker 1: and we're talking about money, there's an influence there, right,

750
00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:16,000
Speaker 1: So I don't have to go any further with that

751
00:38:16,080 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 1: part of it, but there's an influence there. So when

752
00:38:18,880 --> 00:38:21,320
Speaker 1: other people who are in position to make things happen

753
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 1: are part of that business and making control, they can

754
00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:26,800
Speaker 1: control that business. They control a lot of other things.

755
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:29,880
Speaker 1: So if I told you, for example, that you know,

756
00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 1: when I did shows back in Ohio and Cleveland, and

757
00:38:32,800 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 1: the shows like that I wasn't one of paid everyone

758
00:38:35,440 --> 00:38:37,320
Speaker 1: that came there, everyone from the guy that put the

759
00:38:37,400 --> 00:38:40,880
Speaker 1: ring in and the chairs, the chairs to the judges.

760
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,760
Speaker 1: I was the one that did. I was the person

761
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:47,600
Speaker 1: that right. So, no matter how how you go up

762
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:51,200
Speaker 1: in the levels, somebody's dealing with somebody directly in a

763
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: direct way, right, So, uh, it's getting taken care of,

764
00:38:55,080 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 1: you know, in some type of way. So there are

765
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 1: influences that go along with the opinions. Right. So now

766
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 1: I'll go back to the point of finger at him.

767
00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 1: It's not one fight he had that he that that

768
00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 1: he didn't win, and then that that wasn't disputed. You

769
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,400
Speaker 1: can dispute that Keith Thurman fight when the fight is

770
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 1: over with the crowd is buoying the decision, remember, right,

771
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: you can dispute the kel Brooke fight. Right. We've never

772
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,200
Speaker 1: been held so many times in all the professional fights

773
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,439
Speaker 1: we had as we got held in the kel Brooke

774
00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 1: fight to the point where it was like seventy holds

775
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,960
Speaker 1: in the first six to eight rounds or something crazy

776
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:37,840
Speaker 1: stupid like that. Did you ever fight but as an amateur?

777
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:42,040
Speaker 1: And who would you fought as an amateur that you fought?

778
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 1: Again as a bro uh, nobody really, but he beat

779
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:48,600
Speaker 1: everybody in the amateurs he was I was a higher

780
00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:52,080
Speaker 1: weight and anybody were like anybody you can think of.

781
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 1: He beat Danny Jacobs, He beat that cruiseweight champion, Alexander Usick.

782
00:39:58,600 --> 00:40:04,120
Speaker 1: Yeah he can. He beat um to meet your son Andre,

783
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: he beat uh. Yeah, he beat boo boo boo. Uh.

784
00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:14,240
Speaker 1: He beat uh the Olympians Sean Ostrata twice. He beat

785
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 1: the national Golden Glove and national US champion who was

786
00:40:17,640 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 1: returning to be champion again, Sean beating both ties each

787
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: time he tried to return edwin Ron Reriguez did you

788
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: did you meddle in and I didn't fight an Olympics

789
00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:33,399
Speaker 1: was the guy that the guy that they left fight

790
00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:36,560
Speaker 1: and it was a political thing business. He was six

791
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:40,160
Speaker 1: ft tall. Sean beat him twice in both tournaments, head

792
00:40:40,200 --> 00:40:46,440
Speaker 1: to head competitions, and so they went to Beijing, and

793
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:48,480
Speaker 1: the guy was hurt the whole time in Beijing, right,

794
00:40:48,840 --> 00:40:50,840
Speaker 1: he was hurt the whole time. He never trained, he

795
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,839
Speaker 1: never practiced anything. And the week that they handed out

796
00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 1: the uniforms, Sean sent me an email and said they

797
00:40:56,120 --> 00:40:58,080
Speaker 1: gave him his uniform and they didn't give it to me.

798
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,319
Speaker 1: I wanted, I wanted to jump in on something ahead

799
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,400
Speaker 1: and I like this, I mean, because you said it

800
00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: a couple of times to day that the check is

801
00:41:04,160 --> 00:41:06,799
Speaker 1: the same, right, But I see Sean not react to

802
00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:10,040
Speaker 1: that in in the same way, right because as the

803
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,440
Speaker 1: actual fighter that that you know when you said no

804
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:16,640
Speaker 1: winner loss, the check is the same, right. But you

805
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:21,520
Speaker 1: do have to you do have the degree of pride

806
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:24,359
Speaker 1: right in the skill set, right even if you even

807
00:41:24,400 --> 00:41:27,400
Speaker 1: if you like totally disagree with the with the outcome

808
00:41:27,440 --> 00:41:29,879
Speaker 1: of the thing, and you go like, yo, I feel

809
00:41:29,880 --> 00:41:32,080
Speaker 1: I want to fight, blah blah blah. You gotta you

810
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 1: gotta have this hell on your record, right, And you're like, yeah,

811
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,280
Speaker 1: the check is the same, but it's just something about

812
00:41:37,360 --> 00:41:42,239
Speaker 1: that part, right that's like don't sit well? Right, absolutely right,

813
00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:46,840
Speaker 1: Aero Spence Jr. And after the fight, we go to

814
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,640
Speaker 1: the back room and my dad says, do you want

815
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:51,279
Speaker 1: to go out to the press conference? Yeah? I want

816
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:52,759
Speaker 1: to go out to the press conference because I want

817
00:41:52,760 --> 00:41:56,280
Speaker 1: to see you again. I want to see you again,

818
00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:01,279
Speaker 1: you know what I mean? You want if so, let

819
00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: me see you again. You want to see if he's

820
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:05,120
Speaker 1: gonna look at you with the same content that he's

821
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 1: looking at them with. And that's kind of what I

822
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,120
Speaker 1: was really trying to get to that in the in

823
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:12,439
Speaker 1: the in the business of it, right, And I think

824
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,480
Speaker 1: that's kind of what you lead alluding to that you

825
00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:18,319
Speaker 1: still and and even Ruben's kind of saying is that

826
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 1: you still have you maintain the altitude because if you

827
00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: lost the fight bad, then the check wouldn't stay the

828
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:27,760
Speaker 1: same eventually, you know, if you continue to like have losses,

829
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: then become yeah, your value goes down. But the fact

830
00:42:32,480 --> 00:42:35,520
Speaker 1: that you are, you know, considered, you know, a top

831
00:42:35,640 --> 00:42:38,400
Speaker 1: level and an ultimate challenge and one that's like people,

832
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:42,120
Speaker 1: you're right, you still maintain your height, right, no matter what.

833
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:44,879
Speaker 1: And I think that that's you know, that's the thing

834
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:49,000
Speaker 1: that a young fighter somebody coming into the business, I

835
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,880
Speaker 1: think they have to understand that that in a game

836
00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,560
Speaker 1: like this, it's gonna come with some losses. But but

837
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,680
Speaker 1: it's all about what you show so that you can

838
00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,160
Speaker 1: what you do after you look so that you and

839
00:43:00,239 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: that that's a great attitude. Do you think being a

840
00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:06,759
Speaker 1: commentator has made you a better fighter? I don't think so.

841
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,440
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Somebody, Uh, my best friend actually

842
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:12,960
Speaker 1: he says, you know what, I think commentating has made

843
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 1: you a better fighter. I said, you know what, The

844
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:18,080
Speaker 1: only thing commentating has done is allowed people to get

845
00:43:18,120 --> 00:43:21,479
Speaker 1: into my head. Now I'm saying everything that you never

846
00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:24,920
Speaker 1: really saw from me, everything that I trained to do,

847
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 1: everything that I try to do in the boxing ring.

848
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:29,680
Speaker 1: Now I'll just say it. And I think that that's

849
00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 1: really the only thing that makes it different for me.

850
00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,920
Speaker 1: I'm I'm, I'm. I think I would be as good

851
00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,040
Speaker 1: as as I am now if I wasn't commentating. I

852
00:43:38,080 --> 00:43:40,919
Speaker 1: think that I still look at everything the same. Maybe

853
00:43:40,960 --> 00:43:42,960
Speaker 1: you don't realize you're doing that. Maybe you don't realize

854
00:43:42,960 --> 00:43:46,920
Speaker 1: how it's affecting you. Like boxing, like you've never watched

855
00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,680
Speaker 1: it before. That has to give you some extra advantage,

856
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:55,960
Speaker 1: like you Well, even consider that I was studying fights

857
00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,840
Speaker 1: before I started studying him to commentate. I was just

858
00:43:58,840 --> 00:44:02,360
Speaker 1: studying this specific fighters. So now when I study fights

859
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,719
Speaker 1: to be ready to be ready to broadcast, I'm still

860
00:44:05,719 --> 00:44:07,840
Speaker 1: studying it the way I would if I was fighting.

861
00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:10,000
Speaker 1: You know, So, I do I think that I'm I'm

862
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 1: not any I don't think that commentating has made me

863
00:44:13,200 --> 00:44:17,160
Speaker 1: a better fighter, But I do think that I've gotten

864
00:44:17,160 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 1: better because of all the fights that I watched and

865
00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:22,200
Speaker 1: and listening to myself back and all that kind of stuff. So,

866
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,640
Speaker 1: I mean, I enjoyed it, but I had a question

867
00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: for both of y'all. So you actually took me to

868
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,520
Speaker 1: the night of the fight, and I think a lot

869
00:44:29,560 --> 00:44:31,879
Speaker 1: of fighters are like that, where we kind of live

870
00:44:32,160 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 1: in certain moments. And so when you said, you know, hey,

871
00:44:35,120 --> 00:44:37,719
Speaker 1: you lost the fight with Spence and I know it

872
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:39,920
Speaker 1: didn't sit right with you, I'm like, no, Like I

873
00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:42,880
Speaker 1: was ready to see him again and that night, you know,

874
00:44:42,920 --> 00:44:44,480
Speaker 1: and I actually kind of like went there and my

875
00:44:44,719 --> 00:44:46,960
Speaker 1: and my feelings, like I went there to that night.

876
00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,320
Speaker 1: Have y'all ever had a moment where y'all like bombed

877
00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 1: and y'all were like, I gotta get them back tomorrow

878
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 1: night I got to show Yeah, yeah, like you from

879
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,400
Speaker 1: me as I see everything, I want to see everything

880
00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:02,480
Speaker 1: I did wrong the night before, I'm like, man, I

881
00:45:02,600 --> 00:45:04,800
Speaker 1: left this out there. I should have said this. I

882
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 1: shouldn't have said Dad, I should have said this this way,

883
00:45:08,040 --> 00:45:11,680
Speaker 1: and then you know, I'm gonna fix that tomorrow. Yeah,

884
00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:16,120
Speaker 1: speaking from a different perspective of said and Russ, thing

885
00:45:16,320 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: is a failed comic Wow. Um, but I work more

886
00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 1: clubs than these guys work. So the fact that you

887
00:45:25,120 --> 00:45:27,439
Speaker 1: know you have another show and then sometimes I'm doing

888
00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,440
Speaker 1: two show nights or three show nights, you just shake

889
00:45:30,480 --> 00:45:32,560
Speaker 1: it off and knowing that you can figure out everything

890
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,400
Speaker 1: that you did wrong during this pandemic where there's not

891
00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:37,800
Speaker 1: a lot of live shows. If you have a show

892
00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,239
Speaker 1: that's not up to par, it sitsts with you and

893
00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,319
Speaker 1: it bothers you like, damn, I can't go on and

894
00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,920
Speaker 1: get this off me. You know the next night, you

895
00:45:44,960 --> 00:45:46,840
Speaker 1: know what I mean, are the next show. So you

896
00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:48,719
Speaker 1: kind of sit with it. And I could imagine when

897
00:45:48,719 --> 00:45:51,600
Speaker 1: you're doing big theaters and arenas and stuff, when you're

898
00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 1: doing one show a night, you're like, damn, man, I

899
00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: forgot that one joke. You gotta wait another week or

900
00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: two weeks. Yeah, no, that's that's real. And I think

901
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 1: what you don't want to when you brought that up.

902
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:03,719
Speaker 1: I always go back to that that one for me,

903
00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:07,920
Speaker 1: like and it was Bernie Mack and T Clay T K. Kirkland,

904
00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:12,239
Speaker 1: did you sell you or something? No? No, no, But

905
00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:16,200
Speaker 1: it's it's one of those things when you when you

906
00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,080
Speaker 1: you you kind of can look at the situation maybe

907
00:46:19,080 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 1: like you know, like I was talking about with Russell,

908
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:24,640
Speaker 1: like explaining we were in Miami. Miami's you know, in

909
00:46:25,040 --> 00:46:29,279
Speaker 1: Miami proper. It's it's notoriously a hardcore crowd, like when

910
00:46:29,320 --> 00:46:33,120
Speaker 1: you in Miami. Not the South Beachy fund ship. This

911
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:36,080
Speaker 1: is like this the open locker. This like when they

916
00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 1: and I and I remember, like you know, you know,

917
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 1: you can attribute it to a number of factors though,

918
00:47:00,600 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 1: but there was a lot of things I felt went wrong,

919

937
00:48:08,440 --> 00:48:10,799
Speaker 1: I gotta I gotta give up the reins, right, And

938
00:48:10,960 --> 00:48:12,879
Speaker 1: so I'm not doing my time. So as a pro,

939
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,440
Speaker 1: that's another thing, like as a professional, you like, as

940
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,319
Speaker 1: a pro, I'm not even being a professional right now

941
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 1: because I'm in such a rut and down that I'm

942
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,040
Speaker 1: not even getting ready to be a pro. Like I'm

943
00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:27,200
Speaker 1: not even there to do my thirty minutes. Like I'm

944
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:31,399
Speaker 1: like fifteen minutes in and it's horrible, Like it's like yo,

945
00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:36,239
Speaker 1: look everybody, wow, man, look um, I don't know what's

946
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,960
Speaker 1: going on. That's when you do that, that's when you

947
00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:44,360
Speaker 1: do the man crazy. That's just like that's when you

948
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:48,560
Speaker 1: know we're in the run. Man crazy. Times and the

949
00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:50,600
Speaker 1: crowd let me off the hook, you know, but if

950
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,319
Speaker 1: you leave with the shame of it, right, And I

951
00:48:53,360 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 1: went and I wrote, Man, I mean I woke up

952
00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:57,360
Speaker 1: the next morning, I took a walk and I was

953
00:48:57,400 --> 00:49:00,560
Speaker 1: writing Joe, writing joke. I was just determined. But they

954
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:03,399
Speaker 1: changed the show order to So that's the other thing.

955
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,640
Speaker 1: Now you feel even bad because now they're like, now said,

956
00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 1: UK follow me. I got that fire tonight, you know, yeah,

957
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 1: but it became it became that thing where you're definitely

958
00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:19,759
Speaker 1: gunning back up. And luckily for you know, like to

959
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:22,759
Speaker 1: Ruben's point, it was it was a you know, it

960
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,000
Speaker 1: was a three show succession. So I was able to

961
00:49:26,040 --> 00:49:28,799
Speaker 1: come back to the same audience the next night and

962
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 1: then killed even though I wasn't in my spot no more, right,

963
00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:33,840
Speaker 1: But it worked out. That's one of the things you

964
00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:38,480
Speaker 1: learned to like. It's like you just you just don't follow.

965
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:42,040
Speaker 1: You don't follow blue comics if you're not a blue comic, right,

966
00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 1: Like I'm not a I'm not a I'm not getting

967
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,680
Speaker 1: ready to talk about you. You know the inside of

00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: Like I ain't following Kat Williams. It ain't done. I

975

00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,320
Speaker 1: But I'm gonna let cat go. I'm gonna go first

987
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 1: I can't get to. Yeah, I watch a lot of

988
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:45,560
Speaker 1: comedy on YouTube and I'm actually just catching this for

989
00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:47,520
Speaker 1: the first time. But it happened a long time ago.

990
00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:52,560
Speaker 1: Bill Burr, y'all seen the Rent and Philadelphia. That's that's

991
00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:57,239
Speaker 1: actually the rant that changed his career's trajectory. Yeah went up.

992
00:50:57,800 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that that was the first because watching that,

993
00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:03,239
Speaker 1: I thought it was genius. Like, like you said, most

994
00:51:03,280 --> 00:51:06,239
Speaker 1: guys wouldn't be professional. They go out and say, hey, y'all, y'all,

995
00:51:06,320 --> 00:51:09,279
Speaker 1: y'all messed it up. I'm done. But he like did

996
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:12,359
Speaker 1: the exact opposite and did his whole thing, and I

997
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:14,960
Speaker 1: was like, Yo, this is Jesus right here, you know, right,

998
00:51:14,960 --> 00:51:17,399
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's what. That's literally what changed Bill's career

999
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,839
Speaker 1: that one night. And everybody was eating it that night,

1000
00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 1: so he knew. Like going in, he was like, listen,

1001
00:51:24,320 --> 00:51:27,680
Speaker 1: these motherfucker's there. He's from Boston too, so especially when

1002
00:51:28,040 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 1: builds a big sports guy. Bill Bill loves all his

1003
00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 1: Boston teams and builds a very heavy sports guy, so

1004
00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:36,480
Speaker 1: you know, he knew where to hit Philly with their

1005
00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:40,360
Speaker 1: where they're bullshit. You know. Yeah, last question on bombing,

1006
00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:46,839
Speaker 1: and we'll get off of that. But yeah, pointing at me,

1007
00:51:47,000 --> 00:51:52,480
Speaker 1: I don't know, you just just happened, you son of

1008
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 1: a Kenny Porter. How does that happen. How does it happen?

1009
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,200
Speaker 1: How does that happen? Is it? Is it the energy

1010
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 1: of the crowd? Is it the way you start? How

1011
00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 1: does that happen? It's it's variable. I mean, for me,

1012
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:05,520
Speaker 1: I do it to myself when I do BOM, I

1013
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:08,120
Speaker 1: I know I've done it to myself. And then there's

1014
00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:09,400
Speaker 1: times where I think, in my head, you know what,

1015
00:52:09,440 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take this nervous energy and flip it um.

1016
00:52:12,680 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 1: But if I don't get him with the one thing,

1017
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:15,799
Speaker 1: it's kind of like hitting a guy with your best

1018
00:52:15,880 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 1: right hand and he shakes it off, You're like, well,

1019
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:21,839
Speaker 1: God damn, I'm gonna have a long night now. Not

1020
00:52:21,880 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 1: only being a comic but helping comics with their sets.

1021
00:52:26,040 --> 00:52:29,400
Speaker 1: One thing that I I'm very clear and looking at

1022
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,480
Speaker 1: the audience's perspective to be able to help us in

1023
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 1: our rusts or are any of the guys that I

1024
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,120
Speaker 1: might work with. There's so many factors that can go

1025
00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:40,799
Speaker 1: into somebody having a good show. Are bass show and

1026
00:52:40,840 --> 00:52:43,640
Speaker 1: Cedric just name one of them. Uh, I'll tell us

1027
00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:45,799
Speaker 1: so I was on the show when Chris Rock you

1028
00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 1: was on the show. You was on the So there's

1029
00:52:49,560 --> 00:52:51,680
Speaker 1: a famous story about when Chris Rock did Bring the

1030
00:52:51,719 --> 00:52:54,919
Speaker 1: Pain and he did the set in Oakland. I don't

1031
00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,239
Speaker 1: know if you remember this that it was me, you,

1032
00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:02,879
Speaker 1: Mark Curry and Chris and you and you went on

1033
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:08,239
Speaker 1: before Chris. Now I love said, says like family, I

1034
00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:15,320
Speaker 1: know Chris, but Chris's energy it's hard to match. Centric's energy.

1035
00:53:15,400 --> 00:53:18,160
Speaker 1: Doesn't necessarily mean Centric is a better comic. They just

1036
00:53:18,200 --> 00:53:21,120
Speaker 1: have two different types of energies when they go up

1037
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:29,359
Speaker 1: on stage, and said without it's different. It's like he's

1038
00:53:29,360 --> 00:53:34,120
Speaker 1: fun to watch. He's eccentric, the entertainers. Mother got music cues,

1039
00:53:34,200 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 1: he's backing up the car, he's doing all kinds of stuff,

1040
00:53:37,239 --> 00:53:42,359
Speaker 1: crowd going crazy, and Chris came out with the doing

1041
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,920
Speaker 1: all that and and Chris comes out with this Emmy

1042
00:53:45,960 --> 00:53:49,920
Speaker 1: Award winning set that you know basically skyrocketed his career.

1043
00:53:50,320 --> 00:53:53,759
Speaker 1: But it was hard to follow after said that night.

1044
00:53:54,280 --> 00:53:57,120
Speaker 1: And that's just how it is like some nights, and

1045
00:53:57,160 --> 00:54:00,279
Speaker 1: in the place like Oakland too, because you know, you

1046
00:54:00,400 --> 00:54:03,320
Speaker 1: got you gotta read the Mark courage from Oakland, so

1047
00:54:03,440 --> 00:54:06,560
Speaker 1: pretty imagine he would have killed Yeah, he he he hosted.

1048
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,799
Speaker 1: So it's about being able to read the room kind

1049
00:54:09,840 --> 00:54:12,640
Speaker 1: of just knowing what jokes, you might want to change

1050
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:16,360
Speaker 1: orders sometimes of a joke depending on on the temperature

1051
00:54:16,360 --> 00:54:19,200
Speaker 1: of the audience. You know, like if you're following a

1052
00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:22,560
Speaker 1: dirty person, I don't like I'm a person who I'm

1053
00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:25,239
Speaker 1: pretty clean when I go up like like like saying

1054
00:54:25,239 --> 00:54:28,320
Speaker 1: I said, I might use profanity, but I'm not really sexual.

1055
00:54:28,760 --> 00:54:32,600
Speaker 1: So somebody is, you know, really doing dirty material and

1056
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:36,040
Speaker 1: I gotta go on after that, depending on sometimes how

1057
00:54:36,080 --> 00:54:38,640
Speaker 1: much time do you have to go up after somebody,

1058
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,839
Speaker 1: because sometimes if you've got a longer time to burn,

1059
00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,279
Speaker 1: you can ease into it. But sometimes like okay, I

1060
00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:45,080
Speaker 1: need to hit him right off the top of the head.

1061
00:54:45,360 --> 00:54:49,319
Speaker 1: Because if you don't and that first joke don't hit now,

1062
00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:51,719
Speaker 1: you feel yourself climbing out of the hole. Then your

1063
00:54:51,719 --> 00:54:54,560
Speaker 1: confidence starts to reel and next thing you know, you're like,

1064
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:58,439
Speaker 1: I'm vombing. You know that happens to where you gotta

1065
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:01,160
Speaker 1: you got a guy who goes on the high energy

1066
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 1: and you're going on with your energy all sometimes tell

1067
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:04,840
Speaker 1: the m c him, like, I do a couple of

1068
00:55:04,880 --> 00:55:07,040
Speaker 1: minutes with you before you bring me on, like to

1069
00:55:07,040 --> 00:55:09,719
Speaker 1: clear the energy. Basically, Yeah, and here's one thing people

1070
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:13,319
Speaker 1: don't understand about comedy, and Cedric and Russell know this.

1071
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:17,200
Speaker 1: You can be a horrible comic can still kill. How

1072
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:20,399
Speaker 1: is that because people think that just because you kill,

1073
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:23,800
Speaker 1: you're a good comic, and that's not necessarily true, not

1074
00:55:23,920 --> 00:55:27,239
Speaker 1: from an autists perspective. I get what you guys would

1075
00:55:27,280 --> 00:55:29,719
Speaker 1: think that, because wow, this guy made me laugh laugh

1076
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,279
Speaker 1: the hardest, But you don't know if he's doing other

1077
00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,879
Speaker 1: people's material. Nothing that he's probably saying it is true

1078
00:55:34,920 --> 00:55:37,960
Speaker 1: ours just he got hot that night, but doesn't necessarily

1079
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,359
Speaker 1: mean he's good at what he does. And I think

1080
00:55:40,400 --> 00:55:43,040
Speaker 1: the comics who get the respect, that have the fame

1081
00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:46,480
Speaker 1: and have the respect, it's a level you're trying to

1082
00:55:46,600 --> 00:55:48,640
Speaker 1: get to, you know what I mean, being a technician

1083
00:55:48,680 --> 00:55:53,320
Speaker 1: and actually being good at what cost. So here's the

1084
00:55:53,400 --> 00:55:58,400
Speaker 1: thing us, just like you guys are all friends, colleagues, y'all.

1085
00:55:58,440 --> 00:56:01,160
Speaker 1: This is we all do that kind stuff. Y'all share

1086
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,080
Speaker 1: material or say hey man, I just want to joke

1087
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,400
Speaker 1: about this. Don't do it, you know what I mean? Like,

1088
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:08,160
Speaker 1: do you ever do? No, We'll wait and see and

1089
00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,359
Speaker 1: then they'll be like, well, all right, well that guy

1090
00:56:10,400 --> 00:56:12,200
Speaker 1: just did a joke way too similar to one of one.

1091
00:56:12,200 --> 00:56:14,239
Speaker 1: And when I was gonna do. I'll drop it that

1092
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,080
Speaker 1: night because I'm like, I don't want to sucking him

1093
00:56:16,080 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 1: to think, oh I just did that joke and I'm like,

1094
00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:19,480
Speaker 1: I know, but I did my version of it and

1095
00:56:19,560 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: I don't want to do that. Well, I can tell

1096
00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,040
Speaker 1: you what these two and then I'll let said take

1097
00:56:23,080 --> 00:56:25,920
Speaker 1: over is sometimes as a comic and this is just

1098
00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:28,320
Speaker 1: natural for me to do it. But I'll see said

1099
00:56:28,360 --> 00:56:30,120
Speaker 1: do some of R. C. Russell doing. I go, man,

1100
00:56:30,320 --> 00:56:33,520
Speaker 1: if you say this one word right here at this spot,

1101
00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,759
Speaker 1: like we call it a tag, like like saying you

1102
00:56:36,760 --> 00:56:39,319
Speaker 1: know that joke you got Have you ever thought of

1103
00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:42,840
Speaker 1: saying this? And said, my go damn perfect. Yeah, I

1104
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:45,000
Speaker 1: was looking for a little something different to do that.

1105
00:56:45,080 --> 00:56:47,600
Speaker 1: Let make fain with what Reuben is for me. First

1106
00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,160
Speaker 1: of all, Reuben is a great comic and he's one

1107
00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:52,400
Speaker 1: of my best friends in the entire world. But Reuben

1108
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:55,920
Speaker 1: to me is like my Emmanuel Steward because I'll go

1109
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:59,200
Speaker 1: out there and I'll figure out what I'm gonna say.

1110
00:56:59,360 --> 00:57:01,080
Speaker 1: I'll work on my set and then I have Reuben

1111
00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 1: come watch me, and he'll stand there and go, you

1112
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:06,040
Speaker 1: need to put this bit there that he'll organize the

1113
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,720
Speaker 1: set to where when I run it, it runs way

1114
00:57:08,719 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 1: smoother and tighter because he's got the outside eyes. It's

1115
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:13,879
Speaker 1: like listening to your corner, you know, and they see

1116
00:57:13,920 --> 00:57:16,560
Speaker 1: ship you don't see. It's important for comedy that people

1117
00:57:16,600 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 1: don't really attribute to it. It makes me think about

1118
00:57:18,680 --> 00:57:20,480
Speaker 1: the rap game, how people go like, you don't write

1119
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,040
Speaker 1: your own wraps, but blah blah blah. Now comedian has

1120
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 1: definitely gotta have their own brand. But you definitely if

1121
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:28,840
Speaker 1: you are performing at a high level, a lot like

1122
00:57:28,920 --> 00:57:31,080
Speaker 1: having a trainer, a lot like having someone in your

1123
00:57:31,080 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 1: corner that's looking at it, not from the perspective that

1124
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:36,240
Speaker 1: you're in it right, because you're up there doing it.

1125
00:57:36,680 --> 00:57:39,280
Speaker 1: Then you don't know. You keep dropping your hand, right,

1126
00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:43,320
Speaker 1: You just ain't. You ain't seeing yourself do it because somehow,

1127
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:46,360
Speaker 1: in your mind you just faster than him. You and

1128
00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:48,840
Speaker 1: you don't. You don't see that you keep dropping your

1129
00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,680
Speaker 1: damn hand. Dog, he gonna bust you, and you're like, nah,

1130
00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:55,600
Speaker 1: I'm good, I got this right. And that's where another comic.

1131
00:57:55,680 --> 00:57:58,480
Speaker 1: If you, you know, if you got good friendships and

1132
00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 1: people ain't hate which as much as it seems like

1133
00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 1: you would hear about it, For the most part, I

1134
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:09,520
Speaker 1: find comedy a very uh in closed fraternity is a

1135
00:58:09,520 --> 00:58:12,920
Speaker 1: few people that people just don't work with, but in general,

1136
00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 1: but in general, it is a fraternity of want to

1137
00:58:17,160 --> 00:58:19,560
Speaker 1: see you rock, Like I want to see you go

1138
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:22,000
Speaker 1: out and kids like if we if if Ruben and

1139
00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,360
Speaker 1: I went to go see said he was like, yeah,

1140
00:58:24,360 --> 00:58:25,680
Speaker 1: we're gonna go run of my set, and we're like,

1141
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:28,880
Speaker 1: we'll go watch we're watching. Then we'll like said, here's

1142
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: some ship we thought maybe you want to use, maybe

1143
00:58:31,560 --> 00:58:34,120
Speaker 1: maybe you want to change this to that. But we're

1144
00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 1: not writing for him. We're just giving them suggestions on

1145
00:58:36,800 --> 00:58:39,439
Speaker 1: other ways to look at the same situation. And here's

1146
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 1: another uh perspective that these guys might not have that

1147
00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,760
Speaker 1: I have is you know, these guys are comedy stars.

1148
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:49,400
Speaker 1: So someone like go like, like, if you got Malik

1149
00:58:49,520 --> 00:58:53,480
Speaker 1: or whoever, a guy like myself, there's a Christ, you know,

1150
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:59,919
Speaker 1: there's a beast, yeah, Maliks Like, so there's a hand

1151
00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:03,720
Speaker 1: there's a handful of us guys who are good comics

1152
00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:08,360
Speaker 1: who work under bigger comics. And sometimes people go, well,

1153
00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:11,280
Speaker 1: how can Reuben Paul give a George or e Cedric

1154
00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:15,200
Speaker 1: or a Russell advice or perspective, because we're all comics

1155
00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:17,000
Speaker 1: at the end of the day, and good comics no

1156
00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:20,360
Speaker 1: good comics, whether you're famous or whether you're at you know,

1157
00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:25,640
Speaker 1: the middle level, Like huh, well you you you appreciate,

1158
00:59:25,840 --> 00:59:29,240
Speaker 1: you appreciate somebody for being exactly who they are, right

1159
00:59:29,280 --> 00:59:33,760
Speaker 1: and so like you, so you understand that like with comedy,

1160
00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:39,040
Speaker 1: comedy and stardom, this ship comes somehow, it comes, how

1161
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 1: it comes right, you can't because like it thinks it

1162
00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:44,040
Speaker 1: made me think of my my young guy j J.

1163
00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:47,800
Speaker 1: That also worked for me. Again, not a person you

1164
00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:52,680
Speaker 1: really just want to run your ass up on stage afterwards,

1165
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:57,080
Speaker 1: Like will he ever be super famous? I don't know,

1166
00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,680
Speaker 1: not Like it's not saying that he can't be, but

1167
00:59:59,760 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 1: you in he's kind of like in found himself in

1168
01:00:02,440 --> 01:00:11,439
Speaker 1: journeyman status. Right. There's guys, Yeah, there's cats you saw

1169
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:13,360
Speaker 1: in the Amateurs that you're like, if dad dude ever

1170
01:00:13,440 --> 01:00:15,280
Speaker 1: went pro, he would be a fucking world chap. There

1171
01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:16,920
Speaker 1: was guys I knew in my gym that I was like,

1172
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:18,720
Speaker 1: there was a kid that the guy that brought me

1173
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:21,480
Speaker 1: into the boxing world, this guy Willie. I mean, I'm

1174
01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,560
Speaker 1: telling you, this kid was slick. He had like reflexes.

1175
01:00:25,040 --> 01:00:26,600
Speaker 1: I would think he was at the end of the jab.

1176
01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:28,000
Speaker 1: I was like, I know, I'm gonna hit him, but

1177
01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,600
Speaker 1: he would move enough where you didn't see him moving.

1178
01:00:30,600 --> 01:00:32,840
Speaker 1: You're like, why the funk I can't reach this guy.

1179
01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:34,880
Speaker 1: And he didn't even he didn't even know he was

1180
01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,120
Speaker 1: doing it, just like what you're slow, You're missing me,

1181
01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 1: And I'm like, no, you fucking slick. These guys some

1182
01:00:39,840 --> 01:00:42,080
Speaker 1: slick at. Some of the best comics I know. Some

1183
01:00:42,120 --> 01:00:44,400
Speaker 1: of the funniest dudes I've ever seen, are guys that

1184
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:47,160
Speaker 1: you will probably never see. They're never going to get

1185
01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:49,800
Speaker 1: a special they're never going to become something, but they're

1186
01:00:49,840 --> 01:00:53,960
Speaker 1: incredible comics. They got brilliant minds. It's the same thing

1187
01:00:54,000 --> 01:00:57,600
Speaker 1: with me. People, how do you get to the level?

1188
01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,200
Speaker 1: How do I get to the level you're at? And

1189
01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I can tell you, like how we did it,

1190
01:01:02,000 --> 01:01:03,480
Speaker 1: and it kind of fights that you need to tell

1191
01:01:03,520 --> 01:01:05,120
Speaker 1: how you need to train all that kind of stuff,

1192
01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:07,760
Speaker 1: But I can't tell you how the starging is gonna come.

1193
01:01:07,800 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: They just kind of happened. It's I think it's it's timing,

1194
01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:14,400
Speaker 1: It's it's destiny, you know what I mean? Right place

1195
01:01:14,640 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 1: but but I know one thing for sure, you won't

1196
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,360
Speaker 1: make it if you quit. So as comics, says a

1197
01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:24,600
Speaker 1: j J, how you talking about who's absolutely hilarious myself.

1198
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 1: There's a lot of comics who've been grinding a long time,

1199
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:29,560
Speaker 1: who are very good at what they do but haven't

1200
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:33,400
Speaker 1: reached that top level, and some have quit and then

1201
01:01:33,600 --> 01:01:35,720
Speaker 1: and then you find other ways to make money. I

1202
01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:37,800
Speaker 1: found other ways to make money until I can get

1203
01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:40,640
Speaker 1: to that next level. But I know I won't get

1204
01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:43,240
Speaker 1: to the next level unless I just keep working. So

1205
01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:45,280
Speaker 1: a lot of us, the JJ is, the Maliks, the

1206
01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:48,320
Speaker 1: guys who are really good at comic comedy but not

1207
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:51,320
Speaker 1: a household name. The mentality is, I'm just gonna keep

1208
01:01:51,360 --> 01:01:54,560
Speaker 1: being funny. I'm gonna keep working, I'm gonna keep writing,

1209
01:01:55,120 --> 01:01:57,760
Speaker 1: and if it's God's will, then I will go to

1210
01:01:57,840 --> 01:01:59,360
Speaker 1: that next And that's the thing, you got it. That's

1211
01:01:59,400 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 1: the thing I think that most comedians love and understand

1212
01:02:02,320 --> 01:02:05,960
Speaker 1: and appreciate by other comics, right because one, if you

1213
01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,920
Speaker 1: look up, I always say this, you know, I'm thirty

1214
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 1: plus years doing this and somebody that's still doing it

1215
01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 1: like no matter on what level you look up, and

1216
01:02:15,200 --> 01:02:18,840
Speaker 1: they still they still make their living do a comedy.

1217
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:25,240
Speaker 1: You're like, yo, yo, um like you still you happen

1218
01:02:25,280 --> 01:02:27,680
Speaker 1: to be in the same room man and giving time

1219
01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:31,000
Speaker 1: like for real though, dub like, cause yeah, it's gonna

1220
01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:33,040
Speaker 1: be a few people that's gonna be famous and they're gonna,

1221
01:02:33,160 --> 01:02:34,919
Speaker 1: you know, be it at the level. Then you see

1222
01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:37,440
Speaker 1: people that you've seen alone the way that you know

1223
01:02:37,600 --> 01:02:40,400
Speaker 1: that they legit and that they still doing their thing,

1224
01:02:40,480 --> 01:02:42,640
Speaker 1: and that's what you get props to you, Like, yo,

1225
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:46,280
Speaker 1: this is because the day you just the day you

1226
01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,200
Speaker 1: decide you're gonna be a comic, like you know, like,

1227
01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:51,240
Speaker 1: stop doing whatever it is you're doing. I ain't doing

1228
01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:54,720
Speaker 1: their job no more, goddamnit. I'm gonna stand up and

1229
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:58,880
Speaker 1: in that that level of trust, faith and believing, like

1230
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:01,120
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take a micro bone and I'm gonna go

1231
01:03:01,160 --> 01:03:04,240
Speaker 1: out and make a living. Like that's the wild last choice,

1232
01:03:04,360 --> 01:03:06,560
Speaker 1: right because I know for me when I got into it,

1233
01:03:06,640 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 1: I didn't have any any um delusions of becoming rich

1234
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:15,200
Speaker 1: and famous. It was never even a thought in my head.

1235
01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:17,720
Speaker 1: It was just like I just want to do this

1236
01:03:18,080 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 1: and be able to make a living if that involves

1237
01:03:20,520 --> 01:03:23,680
Speaker 1: making two grand a week. Perfect that to me, I

1238
01:03:23,680 --> 01:03:25,720
Speaker 1: was like, that's eight grand a month. That's a lot

1239
01:03:25,760 --> 01:03:27,560
Speaker 1: of money if you got if you grew up with

1240
01:03:27,640 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 1: no money. I grew up with no money. So to

1241
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:32,360
Speaker 1: be making like eighty grand a year doing stand up,

1242
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:35,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm winning the same thing with me and

1243
01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:37,480
Speaker 1: the same thing. I came to my dad and told

1244
01:03:37,520 --> 01:03:39,480
Speaker 1: him I wanted to turn pro. I told you I

1245
01:03:39,680 --> 01:03:41,600
Speaker 1: didn't turn pro to us twenty one. I wanted to

1246
01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:43,840
Speaker 1: turn pro when I was eighteen. And it was and

1247
01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:46,280
Speaker 1: it wasn't that we was broken and and and the

1248
01:03:46,320 --> 01:03:48,480
Speaker 1: gut or nothing like that. I just wanted more than

1249
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 1: what we had, and I knew that I could, we

1250
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 1: could get more from boxing. I didn't coming out of

1251
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 1: the gate. It wasn't being a world champion. It wasn't

1252
01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 1: being a multi world champion or even being a multimillionaire.

1253
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:02,000
Speaker 1: I was eighteen. I didn't really even understand what that meant.

1254
01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:04,520
Speaker 1: All I knew was I'm ready to fight now. I'm

1255
01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:07,000
Speaker 1: ready to make money now. My dad said, take your time,

1256
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:09,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna go for these Olympics. That did out to

1257
01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:12,280
Speaker 1: die best decision I could ever made. I wasn't ready

1258
01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:14,800
Speaker 1: when I was eighteen. I was ready, but I wasn't ready. Yeah,

1259
01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,000
Speaker 1: everything happens when it's supposed to happen. It don't happen

1260
01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:21,800
Speaker 1: when it's supposed to happen. I think um as a

1261
01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,920
Speaker 1: comic coming up, you know, you gotta protect yourself from

1262
01:04:24,920 --> 01:04:28,840
Speaker 1: the bitterness, like something like me, six months into doing comedy,

1263
01:04:29,000 --> 01:04:32,760
Speaker 1: I was torn with Jamie Fox doing theaters. So when

1264
01:04:32,800 --> 01:04:36,520
Speaker 1: you're around superstar comics, then going from that to George

1265
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:39,479
Speaker 1: Lopez to Russell, and then being around said doing dates

1266
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:43,720
Speaker 1: with him, you have to really be competent in yourself

1267
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,840
Speaker 1: and your own ability. Like I'm not jealous of any

1268
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:52,760
Speaker 1: of my friends. Yeah, well uh no, but on the reels,

1269
01:04:52,800 --> 01:04:54,800
Speaker 1: like I'm happy for all their success. You know, when

1270
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:57,520
Speaker 1: I met Russell, Russell was already Russell and said it

1271
01:04:57,600 --> 01:05:02,120
Speaker 1: was just about to blow. But for me, it's more inspiration.

1272
01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:04,800
Speaker 1: Where you have a lot of comics that they become

1273
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:09,320
Speaker 1: jealous and bitter and they let that run their career

1274
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:12,280
Speaker 1: and that sometimes keeps them from reaching their full potential,

1275
01:05:12,320 --> 01:05:13,840
Speaker 1: getting to where they need to be. He used to

1276
01:05:13,840 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 1: work with Del Hugo's father, Yeah, at the airline Delta Airlines. Yeah. Yeah,

1277
01:05:19,680 --> 01:05:23,800
Speaker 1: that so when I before I started doing comedy. Everybody's like,

1278
01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:27,000
Speaker 1: you should do comedy. So I went to this place

1279
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:31,920
Speaker 1: called Berland West, and uh. I had just had just

1280
01:05:32,040 --> 01:05:34,480
Speaker 1: turned twenty one, so I's like, okay, I can actually

1281
01:05:34,520 --> 01:05:36,920
Speaker 1: go to a club. And I went and it was

1282
01:05:37,120 --> 01:05:39,560
