Speaker 3: Well, that guy bangs I'll tell you that much. Not

00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 3: so much on this side. Luke, it's great to be

00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,160

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:33,319
Speaker 3: my LA story, hopping on a jet plane after this

28
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 3: show raps, but they're a little NBC Sports Ring City

29
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:39,480
Speaker 3: USA Boxing last night. Did you happen to see Brandon

30
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 3: the can and Adams sending that late replacement to Hell?

31
00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: I certainly did.

32
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:46,280
Speaker 4: I also saw you and your stalker gloves, but they

33
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 4: make everyone wear those, including the other dude who was

34
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 4: doing interviews, and then Sean Porter and his co host

35
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 4: whose name I forget, But yeah, it's a good looking

36
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 4: the TV project you got going there. But you know

37
00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 4: what I wish that you know what you guys to

38
00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 4: get really in the nineteen eighty Street Fighter video game,

39
00:02:02,320 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 4: feel you got to have some people like banging on

40
00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 4: garbage cans, and you know that would be nice.

41
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 3: I mean, the OJ gloves are enough. You know, I'm

42
00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:12,119
Speaker 3: about to feel like I'm about to get acquitted here.

43
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,359
Speaker 3: But yeah, great stuff we're doing there. We'll be back

44
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: December seventeenth at the Wildcard. But Luke, we got a

45
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 3: lot to get into today. Let's not forget Showtime, great network.

46
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 3: You want to try it today. Thirty months free go

47
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 3: to Showtime. I'm sorry, thirty thirty days free go to

48
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:33,200
Speaker 3: Showtime dot com. Obviously your alternative would be to pound sand.

49
00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 3: But today would be a good day, Luke, you could

50
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,040
Speaker 3: say to join the Showtime Express because tonight on Showtime

51
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 3: nine pm Eastern and Pacific is the debut of Macho,

52
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,680
Speaker 3: the Hector Camacho story. You can certainly hear more about

53
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 3: this in my MK interview that's up on YouTube with

54
00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 3: director Eric Drafth. But Luke, I don't think you've had

55
00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 3: the chance to screen it yet. Good God, I have

56
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 3: and it is all that and then some I'm really

57
00:02:59,000 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 3: excited about this.

58
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 4: What's the uh what's the run time on that? About

59
00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 4: two hours or so?

60
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,239
Speaker 3: I don't know. Time stands still when it's Macho time,

61
00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 3: all right. I was, I was deeply involved in that.

62
00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 4: I went through and you know, he for folks of men,

63
00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 4: I know he retired Sugar Ray Leonard. Now Leonard was

64
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 4: forty one at the time and had, you know, trying

65
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 4: to make a comeback, and Camacho retired him, but like

66
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 4: he really retired him, stopped him in the fifth round

67
00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 4: and Leonard that was that was it. That was the

68
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 4: end of the road for the great Sugar Ray Leonard,

69
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 4: and so I felt down a bit of a Camacho

70
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 4: rabbit hole. You know what's funny, man, everyone thinks about

71
00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,079
Speaker 4: those It was obviously his tragic death and those crazy outfits.

72
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:35,920
Speaker 2: That dude could box his ass all. And by the way,

73
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 2: yeah beat up Freddy Roachel along the way.

74
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean he thought everybody. And obviously the eighties

75
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,360
Speaker 3: version of him and his prime, maybe before the Edwin

76
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 3: Rozzario fight, which he did win, but it changed him,

77
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,000
Speaker 3: is different from the nineties pay per view villain we saw,

78
00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 3: but Luke in the late eighties like being a kid

79
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 3: and seeing Comacho on the screen, it's like a fly

80
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 3: to freaking you know whatever the comparison is. I mean

81
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 3: it's he was so fricking charismatic that you could not

82
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 3: take as I remember the bill to the Vinnie Pasienzo fight.

83
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:07,040
Speaker 3: I mean, it was insane. It was the first time

84
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 3: I learned a lot of really bad words. So shout

85
00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 3: out to Camacho. Enjoy that doc. Also, you want to

86
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 3: be dressed for success this holiday season. You want to

87
00:04:16,200 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 3: outfit your abuela and something very nice. Please head on

88
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,359
Speaker 3: over to store dot show dot com We got so

89
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 3: much MK merchant. It's very comfy. Look, it's very it's

90
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:28,160
Speaker 3: form fitting. It really makes me feel like one hundred

91
00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 3: dollar bill.

92
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 4: You know, I broke my MK tumbler yesterday. My wife

93
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,359
Speaker 4: got me those things where you can make ice and

94
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 4: it's one giant ball of ice and you use it

95
00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,520
Speaker 4: for your cocktails. Well, your boy poured himself a little

96
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,839
Speaker 4: whiskey last night, which I know is totally out of character.

97
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,159
Speaker 2: And I put the and I.

98
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 4: Put the thing in the whisky or in the Tumblr,

99
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 4: and it sliced the Tumblr from top to bottom all

100
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,520
Speaker 4: in one go. It didn't shatter it, just like almost

101
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 4: like someone just broke it apart. So I gotta see

102
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 4: what was up with the ice. Other than that, the

103
00:04:58,480 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 4: tumblers are great. I have ten of them.

104
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: Buy some ten of them. No, I have seven of them.

105
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 3: I think forty nine of them. Yes, yes, please do

106
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 3: on our show and do that. Also check out our

107

Speaker 3: your life with Luke's Live Chat with Luke's Fantastic interview

109
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,559

Speaker 3: all about his life and career. Also, we know it's

Speaker 3: a big fight week this weekend. Spence Garcia. We got

112
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,160
Speaker 3: both fighters on the MK channel plus Showtime Sean Porter

113
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:29,960
Speaker 3: who will be calling the fight, and had fights with

114
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:31,760
Speaker 3: both of them on the highest level. So a lot

115
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 3: of great shoulder content. But enough shoulders, Luke. We want

116
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,000
Speaker 3: the meet, we want the big piece. It's time to

117
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:38,359
Speaker 3: get into that right now. You want me? Do you

118
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,520
Speaker 3: want to sell our people anything else? You're good? No,

119
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 3: Let's rock all right, all right, it is Friday BC

120
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 3: hosting the show. Let's get you ready for the weekend

121
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,839
Speaker 3: of fights to come. And it goes down this Saturday

122
00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 3: in Las Vegas, another UFC fight night, A little bit

123
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 3: of a switcher roo. In the main event, we're gonna

124
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 3: see middleweight's Jack Hermanson originally scheduled to fight Darren Till,

125
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 3: then scheduled the fight Kevin Holland he's gonna get Marvin

126
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 3: Vittori at the last minute. Luke, all things considered, not

127
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 3: a not a bad man event. I'm into this. How

128
00:06:09,360 --> 00:06:12,560
Speaker 3: pivotal will this fight be? For those you know that

129
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:15,720
Speaker 3: the cloudy title picture there below israel a lot of

130
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 3: sonia at one eighty five.

131
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 4: It's clarifying in that sense, right, because you get guys

132
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 4: who below the Whittakers, you know, because Whitaker, by the way,

133
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,240
Speaker 4: did said he did not deny winning a title shot.

134
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 4: But looks like USC is for the time being moved

135
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,800
Speaker 4: on for Izzy's next fight. You know, obviously, you know

136
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 4: that's supposed to be Yanbolohovitch, although I guess we'll see

137
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 4: when the details are finally ready. But you know, so

138
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:35,360
Speaker 4: you have Darren Till kind of floating out there, and

139
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 4: then Jack Hermanson he did lose to Jared cannoneer, but

140
00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 4: he's on the comeback trail. Now you get a winner

141
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 4: for Marvin Vittori. He puts you sort of Ricochet's you

142
00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:44,240
Speaker 4: kind of it's where you were right before. Then maybe

143
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,520
Speaker 4: top three, top four ish space something like that, maybe

144
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,040
Speaker 4: a little bit below. But so let's say four somewhere

145
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 4: in that, give or take, which is a pretty good

146
00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,880
Speaker 4: place to be depending on how things shake out, especially

147
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 4: in a world where COVID is happening. If you can

148
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,840
Speaker 4: stay COVID free, you just never know when the opportunity

149
00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 4: knocks which you might get. The bigger issue for me

150
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,200
Speaker 4: is Marvin Vittori. We've seen Hermanson do really well against

151
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,560
Speaker 4: like Kelvin Gastlin, as we mentioned, but Marvin Vittoria has

152
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 4: been a guy who's been frustrated by a lack of opportunity.

153
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 4: Who you know, I came pretty close to beating Otdasignia.

154
00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:16,800
Speaker 4: I thought Autosignia won, But I don't think it's crazy

155
00:07:16,800 --> 00:07:19,400
Speaker 4: to say that Marvin Vattori fought really well and clearly

156
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 4: took at least a round from him. So you have

157
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 4: Marvin Vittori also, young, big athletic guy. You know, he's

158
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 4: very much full of vinegar and piss when you hear

159
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 4: him talk. He's kind of crazy, which is sort of

160
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 4: what you want from a prize fighter.

161
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,280
Speaker 2: We see. For me this is it's interesting either way.

162
00:07:34,280 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 4: I don't want to I don't want to lie, but

163
00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:37,840
Speaker 4: to me, it'd be much more interesting if he actually

164
00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 4: turns out that that tough fight Oda Signya had against

165
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 4: Victory early in his UFC run was no accident that

166
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,000
Speaker 4: he might get it again at a later stage. Because, oh,

167
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,560
Speaker 4: by the way, Ottasignia is very good, so is Marvin Vittori.

168
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 4: You just maybe didn't get a good sense of it

169
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:55,240
Speaker 4: early on. I'm actually really looking to see. To me,

170
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 4: it's a little bit more. I'm not a showcase for Vittori.

171
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,239
Speaker 4: I'm just a little bit more interested in that side

172
00:07:59,240 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 4: of the equation.

173
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 2: What about you?

174
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, certainly, And it's a really good fight. I mean,

175
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 3: like both guys really streaking at the moment. Maybe the

176
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 3: brighter stock is inventory for all you said. I mean,

177
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,600
Speaker 3: he's three and oh since that lost aatusnia in twenty eighteen,

178
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,640
Speaker 3: working like hell to get a fight, fights, fall apart, injuries,

179
00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:18,200
Speaker 3: all that stuff. He shaved his head for this one,

180
00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:19,960
Speaker 3: so it's adding to the crazies. He kind of looks

181
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 3: like WWE star the Miz Luke. But I know you

182
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 3: don't care about that. But what you do care about

183
00:08:24,400 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 3: is he was supposed to fight Jockarey at UFC two

184
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:29,600
Speaker 3: to fifty six. He's been subbed in Kevin Holland got

185
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 3: subbed out, and now he's gonna fight Jockarey at UFC

186
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 3: two and fifty six. So it's an interesting swing of events.

187
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,760
Speaker 3: But I kind of believe given Jack Hermanson's hot streak

188
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,240
Speaker 3: right now, he's won five of six and with just

189
00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: that one loss to Cannon Air. But I mean he

190
00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,920
Speaker 3: whipped up Kelvin Gasselom. He made a statement in that

191
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 3: that you have to believe that a Vittori win over

192
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 3: her Manson, if he can get it, would probably be

193
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:53,400
Speaker 3: more valuable in advance him than even one against Jockaray.

194
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,240
Speaker 3: So this is a very interesting fight. Vittoria said this week,

195
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 3: everything Hermannson does, I do better, so he doesn't sound

196
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 3: like he's worse.

197
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,719
Speaker 2: That's that's definitely not true. I mean that I was

198
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: gonna say.

199
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:06,840
Speaker 4: The way this fight works is that Vittori is I

200
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 4: think her Manson's pretty athletic, but Victory is big and strong.

201
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 4: He's very foundational in everything he's good at. And her

202
00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 4: Manson is strong as well, and I think a little

203
00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,560
Speaker 4: bit slicker on the ground, but also takes a little

204
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,080
Speaker 4: bit more risk, and so there's an interesting clash of

205
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,559
Speaker 4: styles there. I don't know if Victoria is gonna be

206
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 4: able to keep up with her Manson's kind of speed

207
00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,280
Speaker 4: chess game on the ground, but if he does, so,

208
00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:30,080
Speaker 4: what I'm telling you, look out he's your next guy.

209
00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 4: Or her Manson is as good as we think he is,

210
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 4: and he will sort of reassert himself into the top

211
00:09:34,720 --> 00:09:35,319
Speaker 4: of that division.

212
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:38,280
Speaker 3: Well, Victori's style Luke, tell me if I'm if I'm

213
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 3: sounding filthy or casual or both. It's a little cave man,

214
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 3: it's a little high pressure. It's a little let's turn

215
00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,280
Speaker 3: this thing into a brawl a shit show. Can that

216
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 3: work the higher he gets up on the elite level?

217
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 3: I mean it caught a younger out of Sonya off

218
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 3: off guard, and it was it was a competitive fight.

219
00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,280
Speaker 3: But does he have staying power at the high end

220
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:59,440
Speaker 3: with that style? In your eyes?

221
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:02,880
Speaker 4: Me, he definitely, You're right, he definitely is high pressure.

222
00:10:02,920 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 4: But I don't know that he's caveman asked. I mean

223
00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 4: what you're sort of pointing out is the thing that

224
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 4: stands out versus a guy like Hermanson, which is, you know,

225
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 4: what does if I had to ask you, like, what's

226
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 4: Marvin Vatori's best weapon, Like what's his best single strike?

227
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 4: You know, Hector Camacho South Paul had a great right uppercut,

228
00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,200
Speaker 4: good left hook, right you can sort of pinpoint.

229
00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 2: What he was good at.

230
00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,760
Speaker 4: What would you say that in terms of or how

231
00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 4: would you identify that for Marvin Vattori. I'm not comparing

232
00:10:26,559 --> 00:10:28,319
Speaker 4: the two as like on equal footing. I'm just saying

233
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 4: what's his signature sort of strike Outasania has a question

234
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:34,839
Speaker 4: mark kick, and you know, all kinds of stuff. Nothing

235
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 4: really stands out, does it. I mean, to him, he

236
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,840
Speaker 4: might have a better sense of things, but like to

237
00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 4: the audience's sense, it's not like he's got any kind

238
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,120
Speaker 4: of real, identifiable, you know McGregor left.

239
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 2: Hand kind of thing going on.

240
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 4: But he's kind of good at a lot of different things,

241
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 4: and he doesn't take a lot of risk, but he's

242
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,240
Speaker 4: not risk averse either. The one thing that he does

243
00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 4: really well is, as I mentioned, big strong, decent wrestling,

244
00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 4: well rounded, and he's kind of in your face. That

245
00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,280
Speaker 4: pressure is the thing that tends to get him him

246
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,320
Speaker 4: to do a little bit better than he otherwise would

247
00:11:02,400 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 4: if he had a different kind of strategy or approach

248
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,040
Speaker 4: to the fight game. For me, it's that her Manson

249
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 4: is eventually going to put him in some kind of trouble.

250
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 4: Maybe he'll take him down, maybe he'll take his back,

251
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 4: maybe he'll sit.

252
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:12,480
Speaker 2: For a leg lock.

253
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,120
Speaker 4: Right, who knows all kinds of different things is a

254
00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,520
Speaker 4: guy who doesn't play that kind of game. Can he

255
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 4: play it long enough like Cannoneer did to shut it

256
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 4: down and then implement your game or is he going

257
00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 4: to get caught up in it. I mean there's a

258
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:27,319
Speaker 4: real dividing line in terms of what her Manson can

259
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,680
Speaker 4: show you. Kelvin Gastline, at least for that time being,

260
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:32,400
Speaker 4: couldn't pass that test. The question is whether a Tory can.

261
00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been underrating Jack her Manson for a long

262
00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 3: time and I almost felt like the Cannoneer fight sort

263
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 3: of solidified that. But obviously he bounced back with a

264
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 3: big win against Gaslin. He's got a great motor. There's

265
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,120
Speaker 3: a lot to like about his approach. His personality is

266
00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,400
Speaker 3: a fun little interview as well. So looking forward to this, Luke,

267
00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 3: I don't love the rest of the card. I feel

268
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 3: like I say that all the time on these in betweeners.

269
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:57,280
Speaker 3: I mean, look, if you're telling me Montana dla Ross

270
00:11:57,320 --> 00:11:59,320
Speaker 3: is gonna fight, I'm there. I'm a big fan of

271
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:01,680
Speaker 3: her and her back story. I thought the UFC Fight

272
00:12:01,720 --> 00:12:06,719
Speaker 3: Pass documentary series really captured well. And you think you

273
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:09,360
Speaker 3: think you know me, You think the direction I'm going, Luke, Okay,

274
00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:09,640
Speaker 3: I'm not.

275
00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 2: I thought you're going to stop at the word back.

276
00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:14,800
Speaker 3: You think you think I'm going to react here to

277
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,840
Speaker 3: those thirsty you want to picks on Instagram this past week. No,

278
00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,560
Speaker 3: but thank you, you know, fifty thousand people for sending

279
00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:22,280
Speaker 3: them to me. Oh luke, is there anything on this

280
00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:23,800
Speaker 3: card that moves you outside.

281
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,960
Speaker 2: Of the mau Not really, it is. I mean, here's

282
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 2: the thing.

283
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:27,959
Speaker 4: I always say this, A lot of folks are like, oh,

284
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,080
Speaker 4: cards are worse than ever, and it's like, it's true,

285
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:31,720
Speaker 4: yes and no.

286
00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:32,840
Speaker 2: I mean the fight game.

287
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 4: If you go back and you watch again, I saw

288
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:36,440
Speaker 4: the Sean Shirk Matt Hughes fight.

289
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:38,800
Speaker 2: From whatever was UFC forty or something. If you go

290
00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 2: back and you.

291
00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 4: Watch that, like, modern fighters are in terms of their

292
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 4: best practices anyway, you know, much much better than those

293
00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:47,439
Speaker 4: kinds of fights showcased all the way back in two

294
00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,559
Speaker 4: thousand and four or whatever it was. So in that sense,

295
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,440
Speaker 4: there might be a lot to like. And as we've seen,

296
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,880
Speaker 4: sometimes these guys are mismatched in a way where you

297
00:12:54,880 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 4: get a lot of decent finishes, you might get some

298
00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 4: reasonable entertainment out of it. But it's a lot of

299
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,720
Speaker 4: fighters who are very much on the fringes of the UFC.

300
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 4: It's a lot of fighters coming off the Contender series.

301
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: It's a lot of fighters who don't cost a lot

302
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,199
Speaker 4: of money. This is the UFC taking a version of

303
00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:13,920
Speaker 4: their product, which isn't altogether bad, but it's definitely not

304
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,080
Speaker 4: the UFC's premiere product. I mean, if you had to,

305
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,080
Speaker 4: if you have to sort of like tear it out,

306
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 4: where would this be. This would be a you know,

307
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,760
Speaker 4: not kind of the Contender series, which is guys who

308
00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:22,640
Speaker 4: weren't even in the UFC.

309
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 2: C we're talking about people were in the UFC.

310
00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,600
Speaker 4: This is their bottom tier product, which again is gonna

311
00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 4: be better than a lot of regional orgs.

312
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: You do have a fantastic main event. It's great.

313
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,079
Speaker 4: You know Ovin Saint Prue was on the card, as

314
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 4: you mentioned, Montanan Dela Rosa, the one that kind of

315
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 4: caught my attention and I.

316
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 2: Tweeted about it.

317
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,400
Speaker 4: Matt Wyman is on this card, dude, Matt Wyman, handsome

318
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 4: Matt Wyman, gone for a long time, comes back and

319
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,840
Speaker 4: loses two in a row, the first of those quite brutally,

320
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 4: and he's looking for He's lost three of his last four,

321
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:52,319
Speaker 4: although one of those losses is from you know, an

322
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 4: another life basically, but two in a row since he returned,

323
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 4: and he's scheduled he's fighting Jordan Levitt, who is very

324
00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,880
Speaker 4: very good, like I suspect Matt Wyman will in fact

325
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:06,160
Speaker 4: lose this contest. And then Nate land Were has taken

326
00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 4: on movsar ev loev.

327
00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,960
Speaker 3: Wh where that's the he's the crazy him the hillbilly

328
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:13,920
Speaker 3: guy who screams a lot.

329
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:16,559
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's yes. And then one more name this dude.

330
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 2: I don't know if you've noticed this BC.

331
00:14:19,040 --> 00:14:21,360
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's just UFC or if it's

332
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:23,880
Speaker 4: I don't watch enough International MM anymore to really get

333
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,360
Speaker 4: his extensive things. We'd have to ask the Gribacca hitman

334
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,640
Speaker 4: for this one, Caposa. But UFC has signed a lot

335
00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 4: of Georgians, now, not the at L Georgia. You know,

336
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 4: what can we do for you? Outcast and Killer Mike

337
00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,400
Speaker 4: and all that. I mean, the ones from you know,

338
00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 4: the other side of the world. Uh, they got this

339
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,880
Speaker 4: dude Roman. I don't know how to pronounce his last name, Dola, Jay,

340
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 4: d o l I d z E. He's a maniac too.

341
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 4: All those Georgians are actually pretty goddamn good. And he

342
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:54,480
Speaker 4: is back against John Alan, who is a thirteen to

343
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:55,280
Speaker 4: five Brazilian.

344
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 2: So some interesting names on there. A little bit all

345
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 2: the way around. But no, not look at.

346
00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 3: Look at John Valante in the in the Damn Curtain

347
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 3: Jerker Luke open.

348
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 2: Against j Collier, dude who put on so much weight?

349
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 2: Did you make it?

350
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 3: You were going to say, I was going to say,

351
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 3: in one year, do you think John Valante is throwing

352
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:19,800
Speaker 3: punches in BKFC or getting his real estate license for

353
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 3: Ali Quinta's empire.

354
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,800
Speaker 4: Well, you know, these are very rude questions, which I

355
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 4: you know, something like me, I don't say rude things

356
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: we see, but I'll tell you this seventeen and twelve.

357
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,440
Speaker 4: I mean, we're not so much in racial Ostovitch territory,

358
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:35,760
Speaker 4: but we're you know, not all that far from it.

359
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,960
Speaker 3: He has curves, though he has curves at heavyweight similar

360
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:39,520
Speaker 3: to Osovich.

361
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:41,040
Speaker 4: You got to give him credit, right, Yeah, not the

362
00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:42,760
Speaker 4: same kind that I want to look at. But you know,

363
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 4: to each his own Lewis Smoke is on the card,

364
00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:48,800
Speaker 4: you know, justin James is on the card. There's some

365
00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:53,080
Speaker 4: there's a look, there's totally respectable talent. But in terms

366
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,200
Speaker 4: of the UFC's premier product, this is pretty far from it.

367
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 3: You mentioned Joseph Gordon Levitt on the card loved him

368
00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,440
Speaker 3: in Fifty Days of Summer, by the way, fantastic little

369
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:02,720
Speaker 3: Sweetheart of a movie.

370
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 2: I did not like him. I did not like him

371
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 2: as Robin and the Batman movies.

372
00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,160
Speaker 3: Let's get our second topic, Luke, and I got I

373
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:12,640
Speaker 3: gotta bring you in quick on this one. The Usada

374
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 3: police are back, Luke, and they're slapping wrists. You want

375
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 3: to you want to smoke that weed they got there,

376
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:20,720
Speaker 3: They're gonna be at your door. Okay, Yeah, you're Rodriguez.

377
00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,760
Speaker 2: This was the Oh well, okay, yes, go ahead.

378
00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:27,440
Speaker 3: Sorry, Yes, there's different violations here, but yeah, you're Rodriguez.

379
00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 3: Suspended six months this time in this case because he

380
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,960
Speaker 3: failed to update his whereabout information and was unavailable three

381
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 3: times in a twelve month period when he attempted to

382
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 3: track him down. That's a violation under the UFC Anti

383
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,680
Speaker 3: Doping policy. Luke, the rules are pretty simple. This doesn't

384
00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 3: seem like a typical you sata F job, right, Yeah,

385
00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:50,720
Speaker 3: you're fed up? You got to pay the piper.

386
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:55,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean Christian Coleman, who is this decorated? I

387
00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:57,920
Speaker 4: think he's either the Olympic or raigning world champion, one

388
00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:00,880
Speaker 4: of the two. He just got a two year fine.

389
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:03,800
Speaker 4: He has challenged that in the Court of Arbitrational Sport

390
00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 4: because he had missed I think four or five whereabouts situations.

391
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 4: But this is like I mean again, it's a sort

392
00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:16,040
Speaker 4: of a long, complicated issue, but the basic idea is this,

393
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 4: to get the best antidoping, you have to give athletes

394
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 4: the least amount of privacy. So they have to big

395
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:27,800
Speaker 4: brother themselves and tell the antidoping authorities essentially where they're

396
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 4: going to be at any given time so that they

397
00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 4: can be tested. And I know a lot of folks

398
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,000
Speaker 4: believe athletes don't deserve rights like any normal human being.

399
00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,840
Speaker 4: I don't know why, but some of them do. But

400
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 4: here's the thing. You can clearly go a foul of this.

401
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:42,440
Speaker 4: And I'm not suggesting that Jayi Rodriguez did. But if

402
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:45,639
Speaker 4: I wanted to take steroids or whatever BC and I

403
00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 4: want to just miss three failures and I had some

404
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 4: kind of excuse, I could come up with.

405
00:17:49,760 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 2: You know what, They're gonna suspend me for six months.

406
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:53,480
Speaker 2: It's nothing.

407
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:56,440
Speaker 4: It's a very very easy way to get around the system,

408
00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:58,520
Speaker 4: at least for a short amount of time or however

409
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 4: much time you need to do it. Now, yes, you

410
00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,880
Speaker 4: do it enough like Christian Coleman, and they will really

411
00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:05,560
Speaker 4: hammer you. But six months I'm trying to tell people,

412
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,280
Speaker 4: y'all can think what you want about sport. This idyllic,

413
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,720
Speaker 4: this is the ideals of fairness and a level playing field.

414
00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:15,440
Speaker 4: You could take that shit to another sucker because I

415
00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 4: don't believe it, and I don't believe it because there's

416
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,760
Speaker 4: no evidence for it. It's dirty, it's ugly. It's for

417
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:21,919
Speaker 4: people who want dirtiness and ugliness, and I do.

418
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 2: Wow.

419
00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 3: A little pro tip to you, Sada. You can't find

420
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,479
Speaker 3: you I air in the future. Check under the cage

421
00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,920
Speaker 3: inside Jackson wink. All right, say hi, did John for us?

422
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,320
Speaker 3: And just yeah, all right? The other USADA wrist slap

423
00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 3: Luke is a ridiculous one.

424
00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 4: And no that's not you saw the next one's not Usada.

425
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 4: I mean you got to blame the right people. This

426
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:41,080
Speaker 4: is the commission as right.

427
00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:44,120
Speaker 3: Well, let me tell you crazy welterweight Nico Price hit

428
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 3: with a six month suspension and an eighty five hundred

429
00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:51,119
Speaker 3: dollars fine for elevated THCHC levels. So I assume you're

430
00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:53,720
Speaker 3: telling me this was a state commission finding out that

431
00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 3: he smoked a little bit of that sweet chiba. Maybe.

432
00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 3: I mean, he could be a tincture guy or a

433
00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:05,920
Speaker 3: straight bud man. Either way, Luke, he's not gonna be

434
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,679
Speaker 3: fighting for a while. Can we let these athletes who

435
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:11,800
Speaker 3: put their bodies and minds through absolute hell for our

436
00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,760
Speaker 3: enjoyment medicaid? Please? Can we be done with this?

437
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, they didn't do just that.

438
00:19:16,800 --> 00:19:19,000
Speaker 4: I mean, that would be one thing to suspend him

439
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 4: in the middle of a global pandemic when work is

440
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:24,120
Speaker 4: you know, short, they find him eighty five hundred dollars.

441
00:19:24,200 --> 00:19:26,440
Speaker 4: The guy has like four or five kids, so I'm

442
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,399
Speaker 4: sure that you know, Christmas will be great thanks to

443
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 4: the Devide Athletic Commission. But worse than that, they overturned

444
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 4: his win over Donald SERRONIBC. They turned it into a

445
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 4: draw or no contest, I should say, I mean, you

446
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 4: want to talk about Okay, the fine is, you know whatever,

447
00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 4: it's absurd, and the suspension not the end of the world.

448
00:19:44,520 --> 00:19:48,120
Speaker 4: But stupid you took away his best win. Really we're

449
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,000
Speaker 4: doing that now? I mean, this is this is the

450
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 4: war on drugs. It was a draw, so okay, hold on,

451
00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,840
Speaker 4: hold on? It won from a to say yes to

452
00:19:57,840 --> 00:19:59,320
Speaker 4: save me a dead wrong let me clari if I

453
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:00,280
Speaker 4: had the producer.

454
00:20:00,040 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 3: Shout out to it went from a draw trying to

455
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,080
Speaker 3: prevent a look from losing a shit on.

456
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:06,720
Speaker 4: Side hold on it either way, it went from a

457
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,840
Speaker 4: draw to a no contest either way they but let's

458
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,440
Speaker 4: say it had been a win BC, they still would

459
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:13,560
Speaker 4: have overturned it. The point being is they're going to

460
00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 4: fuck with the results of things as a way to

461
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 4: stick it to people for marijuana. So before I get

462
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 4: the details totally wrong, those are the more correct ones.

463
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,320
Speaker 4: But the point still stands they'll overturn these results.

464
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:25,000
Speaker 2: B see for what?

465
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:28,000
Speaker 4: For what These guys have to train in the most

466
00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 4: absurd way to compete for the most absurd thing or

467
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 4: absurd thing, and they can't even use the medicinal known

468
00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 4: benefits of marijuana to heal this.

469
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:44,600
Speaker 3: Legal which is legal in many states, and certainly medically

470
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 3: it's almost legal universally. I mean to quote the great

471
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:53,359
Speaker 3: thorough good Jenkins from Half Banked Luke four years just

472
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 3: for a weed, damn right, I mean, come on, I

473
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 3: thought we were past this speaking of weed. Though Luke

474
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,920
Speaker 3: Moro Ronaldo doesn't do a lot of podcasts or interviews.

475
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,120
Speaker 3: I don't know if you saw him on Dan Kenobio's

476
00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 3: Inside Compybox Live pod. But Moro said it was his

477
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:14,080
Speaker 3: life's goal and dream and mission to uh you know,

478
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 3: past the Ducci to the left side with Snoop Dogg,

479
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,080
Speaker 3: and he was able to do that in the state

480
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,920
Speaker 3: of California after the Tyson Jones fight and to see

481
00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 3: the joy in his face from that experience. We all

482
00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:25,359
Speaker 3: want to be there, right, Luke.

483
00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if I've said this before. I don't

484
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 2: know if I want to smoke Snoops Weed.

485
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:33,520
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure it's good, But dude, even a

486
00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,920
Speaker 4: contact high will just you know, make a se shit again.

487
00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 4: I like to keep my pleasures simple and minimal, man,

488
00:21:40,400 --> 00:21:42,400
Speaker 4: you know, in a stay in a straight and arrow.

489
00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 2: I hear you. I hear you.

490
00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 3: But you know, yeah, you Sawa sucks, Luke, Okay, you

491
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,160
Speaker 3: pulled me to the dark side.

492
00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:49,119
Speaker 2: Whatever, Yeah, you know.

493
00:21:49,200 --> 00:21:53,359
Speaker 4: I mean, dude, they just don't want athletes to have rights.

494
00:21:53,960 --> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 2: That's what they don't want. They don't and they don't.

495
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 2: They can't. You can't have a real.

496
00:21:57,520 --> 00:22:01,240
Speaker 4: Anti doping system unless you've just the athlete has nothing.

497
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,080
Speaker 4: And if they have something short of that, which is

498
00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:05,360
Speaker 4: a little bit of something. There's still plenty of room

499
00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:07,080
Speaker 4: to cheat. I'm I'm trying to explain to people there's

500
00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,160
Speaker 4: no real way to do this, but you know, people

501
00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:11,960
Speaker 4: seem to want. People want to lie to themselves b C.

502
00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:18,240
Speaker 4: People will tell themselves comforting lies over difficult truths ten

503
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:20,400
Speaker 4: times out of ten. And I'm the guy who.

504
00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:23,199
Speaker 2: Likes to tell people difficult truths, which makes people very angry.

505
00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 2: But I don't care. So there you go.

506
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 3: Wow, Wow, all right, Luke Thomas everybody, He'll be here

507
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:33,600
Speaker 3: all week. Also in the news, Luke Nick Diaz remember him?

508
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,959
Speaker 3: His manager quoted is saying he will return in twenty

509
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,600
Speaker 3: twenty one. Here's the direct quote from Mubenga. What's the

510
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:41,320
Speaker 3: guy's person name?

511
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:43,400
Speaker 2: Uh? Kevin?

512
00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 3: I think all right, he says, quote ninety nine point

513
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,480
Speaker 3: nine nine nine percent. We just got to get everything

514
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 3: else right with the organization. We'll be able to move forward.

515
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:58,160
Speaker 3: He's been training. People want to see him. Blah blah blah.

516
00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 3: Other quotes you don't need to hear. Luke the Great

517
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:05,240
Speaker 3: Nick Diaz of Nick Diaz jiu Jitsu has not fought

518
00:23:05,600 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 3: since January of twenty fifteen. There's the picture from the

519
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 3: famous aerial interview where you know, he had a few pops,

520
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:15,000
Speaker 3: he was bloated, he was slurring, But I love this guy,

521
00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 3: Luke book. The dream's over. He can't be in a

522
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 3: competitive fight again, right, it might being too harsh.

523
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:20,920
Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing.

524
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,119
Speaker 4: I don't know the answer to that, but my feeling

525
00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,119
Speaker 4: is you're probably right. And if you are right, the

526
00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,840
Speaker 4: problem is it's not going to happen after one fight.

527
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 4: They're going to have to get him beaten several times

528
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 4: before they decide that that's not a I mean, look

529
00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:38,000
Speaker 4: at what it took for people to be like, Okay, I.

530
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,119
Speaker 2: Think I'm done with Bjpenn.

531
00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:42,080
Speaker 4: Even now we're talking about Anderson Silva and we're like,

532
00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:43,919
Speaker 4: you know, that's a there's some things you could do

533
00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 4: for him. Passion for these guys like these, like folk

534
00:23:48,600 --> 00:23:51,360
Speaker 4: lore figures, of which I would put Nick Diaz in.

535
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,119
Speaker 4: The passion for them dies very slowly and very hard.

536
00:23:55,200 --> 00:23:57,159
Speaker 4: So either one or two things is gonna happen. One

537
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,000
Speaker 4: he's gonna come back and still be pretty good and

538
00:23:59,080 --> 00:24:01,280
Speaker 4: we'll see, or he's not gonna be pretty good and

539
00:24:01,320 --> 00:24:03,360
Speaker 4: he's gonna have to take a series of really dramatic

540
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:07,040
Speaker 4: l's before folks began to even think about turning on him,

541
00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 4: not turning, but like moving away from him as an attraction.

542
00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,119
Speaker 3: Thirty seven years old has not had a win since

543
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,840
Speaker 3: the first Obama term.

544
00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,880
Speaker 2: Luke, Jesus, Really, you know, here's the thing.

545
00:24:20,920 --> 00:24:24,280
Speaker 3: You never would have guessed, even with the you know,

546
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 3: he took time off, he fought, finally fought GSP, took

547
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,639
Speaker 3: more time off. You never would have guessed though, that

548
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,280
Speaker 3: six seven years later we'd be here that he only

549
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:35,200
Speaker 3: fought basically Anderson Silva, right, and then you know, suspensions

550
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 3: and just weirdness. It's an interesting turn for a guy

551
00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 3: who fought so many times as basically a late teenager

552
00:24:42,600 --> 00:24:45,880
Speaker 3: on the highest level with UFC and Strikeforce and has

553
00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:49,880
Speaker 3: a really really good resume. Luke, but I mean did

554
00:24:50,040 --> 00:24:53,879
Speaker 3: maybe he needed this mental health wise? He took a

555
00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,119
Speaker 3: lot of damage early. I don't know, Luke, but it's

556
00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 3: sad to see a guy with that much star power

557
00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 3: not sort of utilize his prime. Can he can he

558
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,320
Speaker 3: get a couple of pay days left? Yes?

559
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,439
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, but he's got dude, he's got at least

560
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,440
Speaker 2: two big paydays left minimum.

561
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:10,920
Speaker 3: Then how do you match him?

562
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 2: Though?

563
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:12,840
Speaker 3: How do you match him? Are you going to use

564
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 3: his name to get somebody else.

565
00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:16,679
Speaker 4: Over, or are you gonna here's the thing to do.

566
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,240
Speaker 4: It's not even how you match him, it's what he's

567
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:20,520
Speaker 4: willing to do. Like I had someone on a live

568
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 4: chat yesterday asked me, you know, think he'd be a

569
00:25:22,160 --> 00:25:24,159
Speaker 4: good fight if he fought Tim Means? And I'm like, well,

570
00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,280
Speaker 4: do I think it'd be a fun fight if he

571
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,320
Speaker 4: competed against Tim Means in some kind of vacuum. Sure,

572
00:25:29,720 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 4: they're In't a chance in hell he's fighting Tim Means.

573
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,440
Speaker 4: I mean, this dude is only going to fight somebody

574
00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 4: that interests him, is a list or you know, some

575
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 4: combo of therein like a Masvidal or something like that. Now,

576
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,560
Speaker 4: if he gets his ass whooped by him, which again

577
00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:45,920
Speaker 4: I'm not declaring to you he is the future, but

578
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 4: let's say he does well, then you might begin to

579
00:25:48,640 --> 00:25:52,520
Speaker 4: start dialing back what is available and what it makes sense.

580
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 4: But at that point, he begins to get to a

581
00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,840
Speaker 4: situation where it's like, well, what is your you in

582
00:25:56,880 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 4: this case, Nick Diaz, what is.

583
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 2: His interest level? You know, what does he really want

584
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:03,600
Speaker 2: to do?

585
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,199
Speaker 4: My hunch is it's a very narrow set of things

586
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,680
Speaker 4: that will make it easy for the public to accept

587
00:26:08,720 --> 00:26:11,119
Speaker 4: should he get some wins, but it will make it

588
00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,520
Speaker 4: very hard for the public to accept if he gets

589
00:26:13,560 --> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 4: like really dramatic l's. And there's no way to tell

590
00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 4: exactly which way it will go, except there's a lot

591
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:22,879
Speaker 4: of room for skepticism at this point, and once it

592
00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,359
Speaker 4: reaches past a certain place, the public might be interested

593
00:26:26,400 --> 00:26:27,960
Speaker 4: in a certain version of it. I don't know that

594
00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,119
Speaker 4: he is. You know, We're gonna have to see what

595
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 4: he says.

596
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,440
Speaker 3: Well, there's plenty of washy fights for him, whether it's

597
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,880
Speaker 3: another fight with Condit and Cowboy or a Mike Perry cut.

598
00:26:37,920 --> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 3: If i'm matchmaking, I'm making him against Mike Perry right now.

599
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,640
Speaker 3: But you did make a good point on what he's

600
00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 3: willing to accept. He's probably Luke knowing him still thinks

601
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,400
Speaker 3: of himself as like the best waltweight in the world, right.

602
00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,320
Speaker 2: Probably, Oh yeah, pretty close?

603
00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:58,399
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, So Monsvidal would be a monster seller

604
00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,240
Speaker 3: with a built in storyline, and it would bang and Joorgey.

605
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 4: Would win, right, jorheywould win. Connor is a good fight.

606
00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 4: What do you think about Connor versus Nick?

607
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:07,560
Speaker 2: Yeah?

608
00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, just for the Shenanigans. Yes, please, let's do it.

609
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:11,080
Speaker 3: Let's do it right now.

610
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:13,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, you got the whole thing going on, so there's

611
00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:14,359
Speaker 4: fights you can.

612
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:19,360
Speaker 3: May But would Nate be okay with Nick taking everything

613
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:20,120
Speaker 3: that he worked for?

614
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:22,840
Speaker 2: Though? Yeah, I don't know how that would go. He

615
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,400
Speaker 2: seems intensely loyal to his brother, which you could understand.

616
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know.

617
00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:28,840
Speaker 4: I don't know how they're going to handle that, you know,

618
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,160
Speaker 4: and the whole GSP thing is not really available anymore,

619
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,440
Speaker 4: although who the fuck would want them? And I could

620
00:27:33,440 --> 00:27:35,280
Speaker 4: not believe there were people who wanted to see that

621
00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,639
Speaker 4: fight again? Did you not see the first one and

622
00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:41,479
Speaker 4: how much it absolutely sucked and how George just basically

623
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 4: wrestled him as minimally.

624
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,399
Speaker 3: As Nick had like one moment I think it was

625
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,119
Speaker 3: like round three where he put together a couple of

626
00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 3: punches and you were like whoa, oh, yeah, that moment

627
00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:54,040
Speaker 3: was fleeting. Speaking of supporting your brother, do you think

628
00:27:54,119 --> 00:27:59,240
Speaker 3: your older brother blew off my DM attempt to bin

629
00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:03,399
Speaker 3: laden you with some inside information out of like, I

630
00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:06,399
Speaker 3: don't care. Did he never see it? Was it just

631
00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 3: outright protection for his younger brother? Luke Thomas?

632
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:11,480
Speaker 4: He hasn't even brought it up to me, Like, he

633
00:28:11,520 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 4: hasn't even mentioned anything. I mean, we visited him, I

634
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 4: don't know, months ago, right, and I took a bunch

635
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:21,879
Speaker 4: of pictures of his wife, my sister in law, playing

636
00:28:21,920 --> 00:28:24,560
Speaker 4: with my daughter because the pictures were good and I

637
00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:26,959
Speaker 4: thought that she might want to see them. So I

638
00:28:27,000 --> 00:28:30,560
Speaker 4: get home and I sent them to my brother. I

639
00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 4: was like, Matt, send these to your wife, and he

640
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 4: was like, okay. Six weeks later, I never hear anything

641
00:28:37,240 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 4: from his wife, and she never posted on social media.

642
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:40,760
Speaker 4: I thought it was a little weird because she really

643
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,160
Speaker 4: has an attachment to my daughter. Come to find out,

644
00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 4: my brother never even gave those two her Like, I

645
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:49,520
Speaker 4: didn't even hit forward on the email thing, nothing.

646
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,240
Speaker 2: So I just send this to her direct.

647
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:54,560
Speaker 3: He was busy making those burgers, putting the weed inside

648
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 3: of them. That's what we got. We gotta hang out

649
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,600
Speaker 3: with Matt eventually. All right, it's gonna be fantastic.

650
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 2: He does cook well. He does like a mean, mean weed. Patty.

651
00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:09,080
Speaker 3: I guess, all right, hey, Luke, maybe this bit of

652
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 3: news helps the cryptic Habib story coming to focus a

653
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 3: little bit more. Maybe not. I'm interested to get your

654
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:18,720
Speaker 3: thoughts their Malcolm edoff coming public and saying he is

655
00:29:18,800 --> 00:29:21,040
Speaker 3: going to make it his mission and go on a

656
00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:27,160
Speaker 3: pursuit to get MMA. It's become an official Olympic sport.

657
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:31,240
Speaker 3: He's gonna be the voice in the push behind it.

658
00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,120
Speaker 3: Do you think while I believe this is a noble

659
00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 3: cause and I think he actually is the right sort

660
00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:39,520
Speaker 3: of poster boy to go down this road, do you

661
00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:42,240
Speaker 3: think that sums up the meeting with Dana White and

662
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:45,080
Speaker 3: the SEUs soon boy in all that stuff. Because as

663
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,360
Speaker 3: we sit here right now, the year of our Lord

664
00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,760
Speaker 3: twenty twenty, he ain't coming back. Luke. Okay, he never

665
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 3: said yes, he ain't coming back.

666
00:29:51,720 --> 00:29:54,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean probably is more likely. But let me

667
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:55,600
Speaker 4: ask you this, dude, where are you on the whole

668
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,400
Speaker 4: MMA and the Olympics thing? Because I will say this

669
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 4: very quickly, I don't think it's the worst idea in

670
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 4: the world. If it happened, I wouldn't argue against it.

671
00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,760
Speaker 4: But this idea like, oh, if we you know, we

672
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:08,720
Speaker 4: had EMMA in the Olympics, wouldn't that be great?

673
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:11,960
Speaker 2: I guess I don't. It doesn't do much for me.

674
00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:12,800
Speaker 2: Where are you on it?

675
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 3: I fully agree with you on that it would be

676
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,360
Speaker 3: a like a one time curiosity. I would think for me,

677
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,360
Speaker 3: obviously you'd have to decide whether you're gonna have only

678
00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 3: amateurs in it or whether you're gonna allow some kind

679
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:27,200
Speaker 3: of pro crossover, which doesn't seem like it would work

680
00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 3: or make sense. It didn't really work for boxing when

681
00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 3: they opened that up. A couple of pro boxers did

682
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:32,680
Speaker 3: try to make the you know, Hassan En Doom the

683
00:30:32,680 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 3: Forum Middleway Champions got lost pretty badly when he tried

684
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 3: to make that move against amateurs. But uh, I don't know.

685
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 3: I don't feel like it's needed from the standpoint of validation.

686
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 3: I mean, how much more validated could could this whole

687
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,080
Speaker 3: cage fighting thing be At this point? It's on ESPN

688
00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 3: with a massive pay per view deal, and it's it's

689
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 3: it's household. I mean, it's not you know, it's not

690
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 3: it's not bare knuckle, it's not a punching Josn's ball

691
00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 3: bag anymore. It's it's legit. So we don't need that

692
00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,920
Speaker 3: side of it. Could I get into the purest idea

693
00:31:00,960 --> 00:31:05,360
Speaker 3: of country versus country? Nah? Not really, Luke, just me talking.

694
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,520
Speaker 3: I like real fights, all right, I like I like

695
00:31:07,560 --> 00:31:09,960
Speaker 3: title belts. I like big purses. I like big butts.

696
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 3: I cannot lie, all right.

697
00:31:11,400 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 2: I also like large dairy ares.

698
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,960
Speaker 4: I'll say this, if it was a way to clean

699
00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,239
Speaker 4: up and professional not professionalized in the professional sense of

700
00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 4: like amateur versus professionalized, but I mean, you know, make

701
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:27,440
Speaker 4: it a real invested, organized amateur side of the sport.

702
00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 4: If that's what going to the Olympics is all about,

703
00:31:29,400 --> 00:31:30,720
Speaker 4: then I don't really have a problem with it. But

704
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:33,400
Speaker 4: you gotta understand something. MMA works really well in the

705
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 4: modern age on the matchmaker model, not the tournament model.

706
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 4: If the tournament is happening in short order, how are

707
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 4: you First of all, you're not gonna have any pros,

708
00:31:40,920 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 4: or at least very few. It would have to be

709
00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,000
Speaker 4: mostly amateurs because the pros what, you got a UFC

710
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,960
Speaker 4: title shot, and you're gonna skip out on that to

711
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 4: go get an Olympic gold medal. I mean, I don't

712
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:53,000
Speaker 4: fucking believe that. Sorry, Number one. Number two. On top

713
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:54,520
Speaker 4: of that, if it's a way to clean up the

714
00:31:54,600 --> 00:31:57,920
Speaker 4: amateurs and make it something because obviously, you know, amateur

715
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,080
Speaker 4: boxing is much more of an organized thing than amateur MMA, fine,

716
00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:05,320
Speaker 4: but because of the nature of the competition either amateurs

717
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:07,600
Speaker 4: and b it has to be sustainable for a couple

718
00:32:07,600 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 4: of weeks.

719
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 2: They're gonna change the rules set.

720
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 4: There's gonna be headgear, no elbows, you know, all kinds

721
00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,480
Speaker 4: of stuff, and people are gonna get knocked out and

722
00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,960
Speaker 4: come to tournaments late. Like, it's just not what you

723
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:18,480
Speaker 4: think is.

724
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:18,840
Speaker 2: Going to be.

725
00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:22,320
Speaker 3: I'm really not into any kind of bastardization of it,

726
00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:24,560
Speaker 3: you know, like we did with boxing with fewer rounds

727
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,360
Speaker 3: and headgear for that long stretch and the stupid computer

728
00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 3: scoring system. No, let's not do it. Let's not do it, okay,

729
00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:31,160
Speaker 3: or just.

730
00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,960
Speaker 4: Do it and then you know, call it something else.

731
00:32:33,040 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 4: But you know, oh we we're gonna be in the Olympics.

732
00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:37,400
Speaker 4: Won't everyone love us?

733
00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:37,600
Speaker 2: Then?

734
00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 4: No, all of you donks think COVID is the flu

735
00:32:41,120 --> 00:32:43,960
Speaker 4: you suck up to dictators. People hammer each other in

736
00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:46,160
Speaker 4: the face with elbows, They bleed in the most, their

737
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 4: ears explode on national television. People get sent to the

738
00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:52,760
Speaker 4: land of wind and ghosts. They have tattoos that are

739
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 4: inexplicable to anybody with a set of eyeballs. No, this

740
00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,760
Speaker 4: is going to be what it's going to be. The

741
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,400
Speaker 4: Olympics ain't gonna clean it up for you, so give

742
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 4: it up.

743
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:06,240
Speaker 3: Luke just wants less QAnon activity on his television screen appearance.

744
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:07,800
Speaker 2: Lea less please, Luke.

745
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,320
Speaker 3: I'd rather use that effort and money and get the

746
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,120
Speaker 3: MK camera crew with Chill Malka and head to India

747
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 3: with the three of us, and you could show me

748
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 3: where you were spawned.

749
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:17,120
Speaker 2: All right.

750
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 4: I don't know much about India. I was born there,

751
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 4: but that's about it got up.

752
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 3: How long did you stay, Luke?

753
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:25,720

Speaker 3: on the technical aspects of this fight. But Luke, we

773
00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 3: hit the storylines a couple of days ago. We know

774
00:34:20,239 --> 00:34:22,200
Speaker 3: Spence coming back from the accident. We know that is

775
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:24,240
Speaker 3: a big thing that we all want to look for.

776
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 3: But I think Sean Porter said it importantly on this

777
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:30,240
Speaker 3: show this week. He said, look, that's the big headline.

778
00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,759
Speaker 3: But headline one A or one B, excuse me, is

779
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,040
Speaker 3: what is Danny Garcia going to do with that? How

780
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,000
Speaker 3: is he going to tighten these odds in which he's

781
00:34:40,000 --> 00:34:43,080
Speaker 3: about a three to one underdog and really find an

782
00:34:43,120 --> 00:34:46,399
Speaker 3: avenue to success. Luke, we know that Danny Garcia's got

783
00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:49,480
Speaker 3: the big counterpunching, the one punch, knockout power, all that stuff.

784
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:53,040
Speaker 3: Can he win a boxing match here? Can he step

785
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:55,480
Speaker 3: on the gas and maybe pressure more? Can he do

786
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,560
Speaker 3: things we haven't seen him do against the elites to

787
00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:00,480
Speaker 3: win what is the biggest fight of his career on

788
00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:01,120
Speaker 3: paper coming in.

789
00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:03,440
Speaker 4: Spence has got to be a lesser version of himself.

790
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:06,760
Speaker 4: Because if you're asking me who makes smarter decisions, especially

791
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 4: as the rounds progress, you know it's Spence. Spence by

792
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,040
Speaker 4: a fair oh, I want to say considerable margin, but

793
00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,879
Speaker 4: a noticeable margin. He just makes better decisions. Garcia can

794
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 4: kind of play the dozens with you for a long

795
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 4: amount of time, and if you're not on the level,

796
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,239
Speaker 4: as we've seen, like the Sulka fight, which was you know,

797
00:35:23,400 --> 00:35:25,600
Speaker 4: very much done on the level, he will knock your

798
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,040
Speaker 4: block off and he can fight carefully if he needs to.

799
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:30,480
Speaker 4: His wealth, he has a lead. But when he doesn't

800
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,520
Speaker 4: have the lead and he has to play the catch up,

801
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 4: what kind of traps can he set for a guy

802
00:35:35,960 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 4: who is a very expert trap setter and trap identifier,

803
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:43,920
Speaker 4: meaning what you're trying to do, I just don't know.

804
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 4: It's like Garcia has many of the elements we talked about,

805
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 4: the mean left hook. He's athletic, rock Chin does it.

806
00:35:51,560 --> 00:35:53,880
Speaker 4: He's not gonna fade with the cardio. Some footspeed issues,

807
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 4: blah blah blah blah. Okay, but he's pretty he's pretty athletic,

808
00:35:57,800 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 4: he's pretty experienced, but he just doesn't seem to have.

809
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,000
Speaker 4: There's another order that you know. I'm not gonna say

810
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 4: Spence for MMA fans. I'm not saying Spence and out

811
00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 4: of Signia are the same. But people who can take

812
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:11,040
Speaker 4: a bit of a step back, survey a situation and

813
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 4: begin to think about the sixth or seventh chess move

814
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 4: ahead of time.

815
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:16,239
Speaker 2: He's a little bit like that.

816
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 4: And even when people get in his face, like Sean

817
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 4: Porter did, and I thought Porter had some some pretty

818
00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,399
Speaker 4: decent success, That's not what Garcia is gonna be able

819
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:26,279
Speaker 4: to do except in short bursts. But Porter only made

820
00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 4: the most of that situation, and by the way, still

821
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,200
Speaker 4: got dropped. But he only made the most of that

822
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:35,880
Speaker 4: situation because he could just relentlessly pursue it. So Garcia

823
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 4: can do it in spurts. But I don't know how

824
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 4: much that gets you. He can play the game like Spence,

825
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:41,600
Speaker 4: just not at the same kind of level. So the

826
00:36:41,640 --> 00:36:45,799
Speaker 4: answer is Kenny win Well, yes, provided Spence is not

827
00:36:45,880 --> 00:36:48,640
Speaker 4: what he once was, which could be true.

828
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:49,399
Speaker 2: I don't know.

829
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 4: I'm just not quite incline to believe it until I

830
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 4: see it.

831
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,280
Speaker 3: Yeah, So let's look, it's almost there's been two sides

832
00:36:56,320 --> 00:36:59,040
Speaker 3: to Danny Garcia. Two division champion. He was great at

833
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:03,200
Speaker 3: one forty. He was like an underpromoted underdog in the beginning,

834
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:04,759
Speaker 3: and he went in there and the upset Americana and

835
00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,760
Speaker 3: knocked him out. And he you know, he was conning

836
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 3: out against Matissa as this big slugger that's going to

837
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:12,320
Speaker 3: destroy him. And he showed us his toughness, his boxing ability.

838
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:15,520
Speaker 3: But at welcherweight it's been a little bit different. He

839
00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:19,840
Speaker 3: stayed fairly high in his matchmaking. But the whole idea is,

840
00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 3: can he win a fight against a fellow elite in

841
00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:26,160
Speaker 3: which he's behind and has to do something to come back,

842
00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:29,960
Speaker 3: or in which he makes very key adjustments to change

843
00:37:29,960 --> 00:37:32,720
Speaker 3: the complete tenor of the fight. The only real example

844
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,200
Speaker 3: we have of that is against Keith Thurman. Thurman came

845
00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 3: out early. He hurt Garcia in the first round with

846
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 3: the big hook. He boxed beautifully, using some of the

847
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 3: same patterns and setups that Sean Porter did to out

848
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,720
Speaker 3: box Dandy Garcia and his only other loss. The difference

849
00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:50,160
Speaker 3: in the in the Thurman Garcia fight was that Garcia's

850
00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:54,600
Speaker 3: punching power seemed to eventually discipline Thurman. In the second

851
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,000
Speaker 3: half of that fight, he stopped being the aggressor. He

852
00:37:57,080 --> 00:38:00,000
Speaker 3: started circling away. It wasn't necessarily like De la Joyce

853
00:38:00,160 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 3: Trinidad second half, but you saw a Thurman who kind

854
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 3: of left the back door open. Danny Garcia, to his credit,

855
00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:07,879
Speaker 3: stepped on the gas. He rallied a bit. He lost

856
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:10,840
Speaker 3: seven to five on two of the three scorecards. But

857
00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 3: this ain't Keith Thurman. From what we've seen up to

858
00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:17,120
Speaker 3: this point, it seems Spence to what you're saying, Luke

859
00:38:17,239 --> 00:38:19,680
Speaker 3: is true. I mean, he can do it all. He

860
00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,279
Speaker 3: purposely went out there against Mikey Garcia two fights ago

861
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 3: and said I'm gonna box him from the outside, improve

862
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:27,280
Speaker 3: to people. I can do it, and he pitched a shutout.

863
00:38:27,680 --> 00:38:29,719
Speaker 3: Then he purposely, in the last fight against Sean Porter,

864
00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:31,640
Speaker 3: said I'm gonna go in there try to stop this guy.

865
00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,279
Speaker 3: He didn't get it because Porter had a fantastic game

866
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,560
Speaker 3: plan and output, but it was a great fight and

867
00:38:37,680 --> 00:38:40,280
Speaker 3: all action affair in which Spence got his hand raised.

868
00:38:40,560 --> 00:38:42,800
Speaker 3: So I think we're gonna have to be asking Danny

869
00:38:42,800 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 3: Garcia to be something at the elite level that he

870
00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:48,680
Speaker 3: hasn't been yet. And I think it's very interesting what

871
00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:51,799
Speaker 3: Porter said to me this week on MK where you

872
00:38:51,840 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 3: know you call yourself elite, but if you're gonna go

873
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,640
Speaker 3: into this fight and maybe make the same mistake you've

874
00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:59,440
Speaker 3: made in your other biggest fights.

875
00:38:59,520 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 2: Right.

876
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:04,120
Speaker 3: Losses for Garcia both disputed against Porter and Thurman on

877
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:07,000
Speaker 3: the scorecards, but both where you're like, maybe Danny should

878
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:08,920
Speaker 3: have done it a little bit more. Even that Lamont

879
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:11,479
Speaker 3: Peterson close win, I felt like Danny left his foot

880
00:39:11,480 --> 00:39:15,080
Speaker 3: off the gas. Porter's comment was, are you really elite

881
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:16,799
Speaker 3: at the end of the day if you cannot make

882
00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 3: this adjustment. I'm gonna be very interested Luke in not

883
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,399
Speaker 3: only seeing if Spence is still Spence, but seeing if

884
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 3: Garcia is willing to take the kind of chances that

885
00:39:26,400 --> 00:39:29,359
Speaker 3: he hasn't in the past at this level. Because you're

886
00:39:29,400 --> 00:39:31,799
Speaker 3: never gonna dominate him, You're never gonna beat him by

887
00:39:31,840 --> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 3: a wide margin. You're probably not gonna knock him out either,

888
00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:38,040
Speaker 3: because he's so smart, durable and defensively responsible. But I

889
00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 3: need Danny Garcia to be the attacker and not be

890
00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:46,000
Speaker 3: the the heavy counterpuncher in this fight. Will work out

891
00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,319
Speaker 3: for him? I don't know, But you know what's not

892
00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 3: gonna work Luke fighting the Danny Garcia away fighting a

893
00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:55,480
Speaker 3: Spence who's still there and losing eight rounds to four.

894
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,760
Speaker 4: Right, here's the problem with the way you're I agree

895
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,799
Speaker 4: with you in general. The problem is if you try

896
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:04,480
Speaker 4: to do the attacking thing, and of course the devil's

897
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,440
Speaker 4: all in the details, but to the extent it incorporates

898
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 4: a bit of aggression. That means you do have to

899
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:13,760
Speaker 4: take some chances with your defense. And that was exactly

900
00:40:13,800 --> 00:40:19,400
Speaker 4: how Spence dropped Porter late. Remember that whipped his head around,

901
00:40:19,520 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 4: catching him with a punch in the middle of a combination,

902
00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,719
Speaker 4: or at least the end of one, and he didn't

903
00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 4: see it coming. And it was only there because you

904
00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:31,000
Speaker 4: had this sort of wave crashing into the shore over

905
00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:33,120
Speaker 4: and over kind of scenario. He could eventually time the

906
00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:36,040
Speaker 4: waves and then he found it. So it's like, is

907
00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:38,440
Speaker 4: Garcia gonna do that too? I mean to me, honestly,

908
00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 4: I think you have to switch things up a lot

909
00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 4: on this guy. You got to give him a ton

910
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 4: of different looks. You have to slow him down, you

911
00:40:44,120 --> 00:40:46,600
Speaker 4: have to get him thinking. And if Garcia is gonna

912
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,560
Speaker 4: lay back a little bit and just kind of hang Garcia, Like,

913
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,799
Speaker 4: if I had to ask you, you see, can Garcia hang

914
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:52,400
Speaker 4: with Spence.

915
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,239
Speaker 2: Yes, he definitely can hang with him.

916
00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 4: Can he do enough to get over the top, Well,

917
00:40:58,320 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 4: that's the part I'm a little bit skeptical about.

918
00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, certainly, if he hurts him with a big shot,

919
00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:04,520
Speaker 3: he can get him out of there. But the whole

920
00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,040
Speaker 3: idea is, if you're gonna fight on even terms, does

921
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:12,160
Speaker 3: he have that extra gear, that extra strategic change, something different.

922
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,200
Speaker 3: Here's an interesting flavor to this fight, though, Luke, and

923
00:41:16,239 --> 00:41:17,799
Speaker 3: I want to know if you think there's anything to it.

924
00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 3: I told you Spence out box Mikey Garcia, like with

925
00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,280
Speaker 3: these from the outside, we saw this that the South

926
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,279
Speaker 3: Paul is quick, smart, great, jab can control distance so beautifully.

927
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:30,080
Speaker 3: If you're telling me that Spence is like at least

928
00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:32,880
Speaker 3: ninety percent, and you're telling me he's just going to box,

929
00:41:33,280 --> 00:41:35,680
Speaker 3: I'm telling you he's gonna win straight up. Put the money,

930
00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,600
Speaker 3: you know, at the window. But Spence has told me,

931
00:41:38,719 --> 00:41:41,400
Speaker 3: told a lot of people, I'm gonna go in there

932
00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:43,040
Speaker 3: and fight. We're gonna feel each other off for a

933
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:45,000
Speaker 3: couple of rounds, but then it's going to be a fight.

934
00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,719
Speaker 3: And I want to make this a one sided ass

935
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 3: kicking a fight. I get Spence's makeup Luke. He didn't

936
00:41:52,080 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 3: want to comeback fight against nobody. He didn't want to

937
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,520
Speaker 3: do anything but get right back in line where he

938
00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 3: was before the accident, which is owns to a four

939
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:01,719
Speaker 3: Walter titles. Is one of your pomp for palm bests

940
00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:03,600
Speaker 3: in the world. Is going to take this fight with

941
00:42:03,680 --> 00:42:06,520
Speaker 3: Dandy Garcia, and then he wants the really really big names,

942
00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 3: the Pacquiaos, the Terrence Crawfords, et cetera, maybe even Canelo

943
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 3: down the line. A lot of things to talk about there. Uh,

944
00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,560
Speaker 3: do you think him though, coming in with that mindset,

945
00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 3: if this is believable that he does want to make

946
00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 3: a statement that he wants to stop Danny Garcia, is

947
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:23,880
Speaker 3: going to maybe open the door for Danny Garcia to

948
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 3: have the best possible chance of success.

949
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:27,399
Speaker 4: I'm not one of these guys who reads a lot

950
00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:28,960
Speaker 4: into it. That's why I don't do a lot of interviews,

951
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,680
Speaker 4: you know, because I'm not even saying that they're being disingenuous,

952
00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,200
Speaker 4: although many times they are. I'm just gonna say something

953
00:42:35,239 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 4: to this fucking reporter just to you know, get a headline.

954
00:42:37,840 --> 00:42:38,800
Speaker 2: But even when they.

955
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,799
Speaker 4: Mean it, it's like the reality often forces them very

956
00:42:41,880 --> 00:42:44,600
Speaker 4: quickly out of it. So it's like, one, you might

957
00:42:44,640 --> 00:42:46,759
Speaker 4: be just lying to me just for lying's sake, and two,

958
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:49,240
Speaker 4: even if you mean it, it's just a really hard

959
00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,520
Speaker 4: thing to own up to. And when you switch out

960
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,960
Speaker 4: of that game plan to something that is different or

961
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,280
Speaker 4: maybe even a little bit less exciting but more winnable,

962
00:42:57,640 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 4: I don't even blame the guy. Dude Spence, how was

963
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:02,080
Speaker 4: an eighth terrible car accident? We talked about this and

964
00:43:02,120 --> 00:43:03,799
Speaker 4: he's coming back. If you had to fight a little

965
00:43:03,800 --> 00:43:06,919
Speaker 4: bit more carefully than normal to beat Danny Garcia, would

966
00:43:06,960 --> 00:43:09,719
Speaker 4: you blame him? No, Because if you don't beat Danny Garcia,

967
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,560
Speaker 4: now you've got big fucking problems. Man, you got huge

968
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,640
Speaker 4: problems on your hands, and you don't want those problems.

969
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 4: It wouldn't be great if you barely be a guy

970
00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:19,440
Speaker 4: who were kind of widely expected to be, but it

971
00:43:19,480 --> 00:43:23,239
Speaker 4: would be far worse if you lost. So my view

972
00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,560
Speaker 4: on this is, does he mean those things? Maybe impossible

973
00:43:26,600 --> 00:43:29,279
Speaker 4: to know. If he gets the ko I will I

974
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:32,160
Speaker 4: will certainly say you know what he called it, But

975
00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:34,560
Speaker 4: so many times they try to call it, and more

976
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:37,560
Speaker 4: often than not they might still get the win, but

977
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:40,040
Speaker 4: the reality of the fight changes things pretty quickly and

978
00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,239
Speaker 4: they have to go away from it. So I don't

979
00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,839
Speaker 4: I personally bec I don't read much into those things.

980
00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 3: That's fair, it's very fair. I do believe though, that

981
00:43:47,719 --> 00:43:50,040
Speaker 3: that's Errol's makeup. He's gonna do it anyway. I mean,

982
00:43:50,040 --> 00:43:53,120
Speaker 3: he said straight up he believes Porter was only as

983
00:43:53,120 --> 00:43:56,120
Speaker 3: successful as he was against him because Spence defied the

984
00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,200
Speaker 3: orders of his own corner who told him to box more,

985
00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:00,239
Speaker 3: and he just kept coming and wanted to make that

986
00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,680
Speaker 3: a fight. So it's gonna be very Your.

987
00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,400
Speaker 4: Point, so I started to receive your point, is that

988
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:08,680
Speaker 4: Spence's natural orientation. Yes, so saying as much is not

989
00:44:08,800 --> 00:44:11,440
Speaker 4: some kind of declaration of change. It's more just like

990
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:13,000
Speaker 4: that's just kind of the way it goes.

991
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 3: Well, look, the winner of this fight, when you got

992
00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:17,360
Speaker 3: two of four belts in the in the most important

993
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 3: and lucrative. I mean, look, heavyweight is more important when

994
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,799
Speaker 3: it's populated well, and we're getting fights we want right

995
00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 3: now we are, we're in a heavyweight renaissance, but we

996
00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 3: know welterweight pays the bills in boxing. That's where your

997
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:30,239
Speaker 3: big pay per views will be. I don't you know.

998
00:44:30,320 --> 00:44:32,000
Speaker 3: We don't like to get too much into the sixty

999
00:44:32,080 --> 00:44:34,680
Speaker 3: forty tall Spence and Crawford and all that bs, but

1000
00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:39,000
Speaker 3: Luke if Errol Spence's welterweight resume with a win on

1001
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:44,520
Speaker 3: Saturday would be Danny Garcia, Sean Porter, Mikey Garcia, Kelbrook,

1002
00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:49,080
Speaker 3: Lamont Peterson. Those wins hold up against everybody not named

1003
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:52,800
Speaker 3: Manny PACIAU in the walterweight division. So yeah, this guy's

1004
00:44:52,840 --> 00:44:55,080
Speaker 3: in the driver's seat. It would be interesting to see

1005
00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,480
Speaker 3: what name he would throw out there. It seems like

1006
00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,720
Speaker 3: everybody wants Paci out now because there's that short window

1007
00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:03,000
Speaker 3: left where he's so financially viable and still really good

1008
00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,320
Speaker 3: at the same time we're beating him. Is a monster

1009
00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:07,880
Speaker 3: scalp on your resume? Do you think there's any chance

1010
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,040
Speaker 3: though that Spence looks into that microphone and says, Terence Crawford,

1011
00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:13,120
Speaker 3: get your shit together, let's do this.

1012
00:45:14,080 --> 00:45:16,440
Speaker 4: I wouldn't mind it, but I think you and I

1013
00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,399
Speaker 4: both know that the much bigger dude.

1014
00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:20,400
Speaker 2: Why would you call.

1015
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,799
Speaker 4: Out a tougher fight for less money when you can

1016
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,279
Speaker 4: call out a fight that's still tough. I think we

1017
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:26,239
Speaker 4: both agree with Pacio is still pretty tough, but a

1018
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,000
Speaker 4: maybe not as tough as Bud, I don't think that's

1019
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:29,759
Speaker 4: crazy to say.

1020
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,839
Speaker 2: For uh, for if if.

1021
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:36,080
Speaker 4: I PAKIAU a shitload more money, I mean, if it

1022
00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:37,920
Speaker 4: was the same challenge in more money, you would still

1023
00:45:37,920 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 4: expect him to go with the more money you got

1024
00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:41,800
Speaker 4: one that is easier and it's more money.

1025
00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,520
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe he'll do it. Here's the thing.

1026
00:45:44,560 --> 00:45:46,279
Speaker 4: He might get asked about it, in which case he'll,

1027
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,000
Speaker 4: you know, he'll just you know, so he'll project strength

1028
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:52,759
Speaker 4: in every direction. But honestly, like what's his preference, dude?

1029
00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,600
Speaker 4: And also, b C, what would you rather see Spence

1030
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,800
Speaker 4: Pakia or Pakiao McGregor.

1031
00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,960
Speaker 3: Oh god, I'd rather see Crawford pack yaw to be honest,

1032
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:05,759
Speaker 3: you know, like we've talked about, it's going to be

1033
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,320
Speaker 3: interesting to see what top rank does for the potential

1034
00:46:08,400 --> 00:46:11,919
Speaker 3: last fight where they have butt under contract. But let's

1035
00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 3: not forget Keith Thurman's name. He did put out a

1036
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:18,320
Speaker 3: press release this past week that said cornballly enough. It

1037
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,719
Speaker 3: said twenty twenty one called and they want Keith Thurman back.

1038
00:46:22,000 --> 00:46:24,399
Speaker 3: He has thrown his name out there to potentially face

1039
00:46:24,440 --> 00:46:27,520
Speaker 3: the winner of Spence Garcia. Look, you can clown on

1040
00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:30,279
Speaker 3: Keith with the ponytail on the flu, and you know,

1041
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:31,719
Speaker 3: he takes a lot of time off and he gets

1042
00:46:31,760 --> 00:46:34,480
Speaker 3: hurt and all that stuff. Luke, I thought his best

1043
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:36,640
Speaker 3: performance ever was in that lost to pak Yaw. I

1044
00:46:36,640 --> 00:46:38,359
Speaker 3: think he still got it, you know. I mean there's

1045
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,760
Speaker 3: some questions there, but I still need to see Spence

1046
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,080
Speaker 3: Thurman at a very high level.

1047
00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,080
Speaker 4: You yeah, the haircut. I mean, listen, I'm forty one.

1048
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,280
Speaker 4: There's a lot about people younger than me. I don't understand,

1049
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,000
Speaker 4: which is the old dad thing to say when you

1050
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:52,160
Speaker 4: reach this sage. And I've never underquesited his haircut, but

1051
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:57,040
Speaker 4: I do feel like he's a little bit like the

1052
00:46:57,160 --> 00:46:59,359
Speaker 4: forgotten guy, which is funny because he was the guy

1053
00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 4: for a time division.

1054
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 2: But yes, we should not lose sight of old. Was it?

1055
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,080
Speaker 2: One punch right? One punch Keith Thurman.

1056
00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,520
Speaker 3: One time, one time ry Wyclef Jean of him? Yes,

1057
00:47:10,719 --> 00:47:15,040
Speaker 3: all right, good looking fight though obviously Spence Garcia gotta

1058
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 3: see at Saturday. We'll have an instant reaction afterwards to

1059
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:21,120
Speaker 3: fill your MK palette hole. All right, Luke, let's get

1060
00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 3: on to a segment that makes you increasingly angry week

1061
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:27,480
Speaker 3: by week. It's called dead wrong.

1062
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:30,240
Speaker 4: Well, it won't make me angry if the dead wrongs

1063
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:32,960
Speaker 4: are dead rights and I'm dead wrong. What I don't

1064
00:47:33,000 --> 00:47:35,360
Speaker 4: appreciate is when the motherfuckers just don't listen.

1065
00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:36,719
Speaker 2: But okay, some of us.

1066
00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:40,719
Speaker 3: Are humble enough to allow to take a public l Luke,

1067
00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:43,239
Speaker 3: I'll sit on the l Okay.

1068
00:47:42,520 --> 00:47:44,880
Speaker 4: Hey, listen, we both take turns on the throne of

1069
00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,319
Speaker 4: l my friend. That's what That's what this Friday show

1070
00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 4: is all about.

1071
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:50,600
Speaker 3: All right, Well, beast's about to take one right here.

1072
00:47:50,719 --> 00:47:54,120
Speaker 3: On Wednesday show, Luke, we talked about basketball video games.

1073
00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:57,760
Speaker 3: You mentioned the NBA one with the big head. Yeah,

1074
00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,520
Speaker 3: big heads, I instantly responded, NBA Jam. Turns out the

1075
00:48:01,560 --> 00:48:04,359
Speaker 3: people all right, I went dead wrong. The arcade game

1076
00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:08,239
Speaker 3: with the giant Heads is actually called MBA Showtime. It's

1077
00:48:08,280 --> 00:48:11,360
Speaker 3: similar to NBA Jam, but the size of the heads

1078
00:48:11,800 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 3: is a monster difference. Obviously, NBA Jam you get the

1079
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:17,759
Speaker 3: spinny dunks and the player verticals off the rafters and

1080
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:18,160
Speaker 3: all that.

1081
00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:23,560
Speaker 4: But which is what do What do basketball video game

1082
00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:25,000
Speaker 4: fans say is the better game?

1083
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,040
Speaker 3: I don't know. I mean, I feel like we all

1084
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:30,920
Speaker 3: have a little bit more of a nostalgic pull in

1085
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,120
Speaker 3: our heart to NBA Jam, without question, and by the way,

1086
00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:35,560
Speaker 3: it still holds up. I play it on Sega Genesis

1087
00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 3: with my kids when I'm able to blow into that

1088
00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,799
Speaker 3: cartridge enough to give it new life. Luke, you ever

1089
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:40,680
Speaker 3: get back into that game?

1090
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 2: No?

1091
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:43,040
Speaker 4: You know what I bought for, Like, I don't know

1092
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,239
Speaker 4: what was it, Like forty bucks, fifty bucks, something like that.

1093
00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:48,920
Speaker 4: I bought it off Amazon. It's the Mini Nintendo system

1094
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,200
Speaker 4: and you don't put cartridges in there. It just comes

1095
00:48:51,239 --> 00:48:54,799
Speaker 4: loaded with like two hundred games. I bought one of those,

1096
00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:56,759
Speaker 4: and I was playing Super Mario one, two and three

1097
00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:00,280
Speaker 4: not too long ago. It's fun for like thirty minutes.

1098
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 4: And I'm like, these fucking video games suck ass. I

1099
00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,839
Speaker 4: read a watch pornography. But anyway, it's just me speaking la.

1100
00:49:07,120 --> 00:49:08,960
Speaker 3: Some guy was trying to get me into a debate

1101
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,920
Speaker 3: on Twitter today of Jenna Jamison versus Janine Lyndon Mueller

1102
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 3: of nineties Queen, and I'm.

1103
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 2: Like, Sylvia Saint is your answer? Yeah? All right?

1104
00:49:18,960 --> 00:49:21,680
Speaker 3: Hey number two? How about I take an l for

1105
00:49:21,719 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 3: apparently my lack of celebrity boxing knowledge when getting us

1106
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 3: hyped for Tyson Jones and in the instant reaction, I

1107
00:49:28,280 --> 00:49:32,400
Speaker 3: made references to Screech taking on Todd Bridges aka Willis

1108
00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:35,279
Speaker 3: from a Different Strokes in that short lived but very

1109
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,399
Speaker 3: funny Fox celebrity boxing series from about twenty years ago.

1110
00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:40,479
Speaker 3: Turns out I was wrong, Luke. They never actually fought

1111
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:43,439
Speaker 3: each other. Dustin Diamond, who played Screech, beat the shit

1112
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,800
Speaker 3: out of Ron Polillo. Remember he thought he was the

1113
00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:50,000
Speaker 3: welcome back Cotter guy. And then Todd Bridges I really

1114
00:49:50,120 --> 00:49:52,719
Speaker 3: used his jab well to out box Vanilla Ice and

1115
00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,120
Speaker 3: win a three round unanimous decision. So yes, I'll take

1116
00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:58,040
Speaker 3: the l It's like me saying, oh, I remember that

1117
00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,640
Speaker 3: time I ate five hot dogs and they're like, well,

1118
00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,520
Speaker 3: actually those were sausage sticks from the from the you know,

1119
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 3: the same same shit in.

1120
00:50:04,800 --> 00:50:06,120
Speaker 2: The You know it's funny. I feel it.

1121
00:50:06,120 --> 00:50:08,239
Speaker 4: But if someone had told me, hey, remember when like

1122
00:50:08,280 --> 00:50:11,720
Speaker 4: Screech fought Todd Bridges, there's a part of your brain

1123
00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:15,719
Speaker 4: that just that sounds so intuitively true. I didn't even

1124
00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:16,759
Speaker 4: think twice about it.

1125
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 2: That is hilarious. I did not know that's funny.

1126
00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 3: I went back and watched that series a couple of

1127
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,560
Speaker 3: months ago on YouTube just for shits and giggles, and

1128
00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:29,360
Speaker 3: I forgot that. Uh Joey Butafuco fought China the rest.

1129
00:50:29,480 --> 00:50:31,640
Speaker 3: I mean like there was like these were some wild

1130
00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,239
Speaker 3: she remember was ma new ball against refrigerator? Perry used

1131
00:50:34,239 --> 00:50:37,279
Speaker 3: to dude, freaking watch pc P.

1132
00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,319
Speaker 4: See we got to get the guy who is the

1133
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:41,839
Speaker 4: genius who said we got to get Joey Buttafuco, which,

1134
00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:45,120
Speaker 4: by the way, if you're at all anything over twenty

1135
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:47,799
Speaker 4: years old, there, I mean, you just can't get that.

1136
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:52,520
Speaker 4: So that is that BC is Joey Buttafuco the nineties reference.

1137
00:50:52,600 --> 00:50:55,200
Speaker 4: I mean, I can't think of something more nineties than

1138
00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:55,680
Speaker 4: that guy.

1139
00:50:56,080 --> 00:50:58,200
Speaker 3: But I mean so wait, so he was like an

1140
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,480
Speaker 3: auto sales guy in Long Island and he had cheated

1141
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:04,480
Speaker 3: on his wife with that young lolita. What was her name,

1142
00:51:04,480 --> 00:51:05,120
Speaker 3: Amy Fisher?

1143
00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:08,560
Speaker 2: Uh, something like that, And then did he.

1144
00:51:08,360 --> 00:51:11,320
Speaker 3: Help Amy Fisher conspire to shoot his to attempt to

1145
00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:12,440
Speaker 3: shoot and kill his wife.

1146
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:14,239
Speaker 2: So that is my thing.

1147
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:17,480
Speaker 4: He's an autobody shop owner who had a sexual relationship

1148
00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:20,800
Speaker 4: with a minor, Amy Fisher, who subsequently shot his wife

1149
00:51:20,840 --> 00:51:24,320
Speaker 4: Mary Joe Butafuco in the face, and I believe she lived.

1150
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:27,960
Speaker 4: But the tabloids called Fisher the Long Island lolita.

1151
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,319
Speaker 3: Remember how many movies they made about that incident when

1152
00:51:31,320 --> 00:51:33,120
Speaker 3: we were kids, like made for TV movies. It was

1153
00:51:33,160 --> 00:51:35,759
Speaker 3: like there was competing ones on different networks. People love

1154
00:51:35,840 --> 00:51:36,320
Speaker 3: that story.

1155
00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,120
Speaker 4: Oh my god, dude, Joey Buttafuco got into a boxing

1156
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:45,720
Speaker 4: match with Amy Fisher's husband. Anyway, dude, we gotta find

1157
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:49,279
Speaker 4: we gotta find the producer who made that show, and

1158
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,640
Speaker 4: we need to interview him. Yeah, whoever it was, would

1159
00:51:52,680 --> 00:51:54,080
Speaker 4: that not be great for this show?

1160
00:51:54,600 --> 00:51:57,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's fricking stories there. We used to get real

1161
00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,839
Speaker 3: high and watch those weird Fox shows, including that Man

1162
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:03,560
Speaker 3: Versus Animal show when Kobayashi had the hot dog getting

1163
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:06,319
Speaker 3: contents against that giant bear. Do you remember this, Luke?

1164
00:52:06,400 --> 00:52:07,600
Speaker 3: I know, I referenced this a lot.

1165
00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:09,280
Speaker 2: I talk about that show all the time.

1166
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:12,400
Speaker 3: He took it so damn seriously and he was winning

1167
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,399
Speaker 3: until the bear slowly just picked up like fifty eight

1168
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:17,839
Speaker 3: hot dogs in one bite, just just down it and

1169
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:19,280
Speaker 3: Kobayashi was shattered.

1170
00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:21,319
Speaker 4: Luke, Okay, dude, how about the one where they had

1171
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:24,000
Speaker 4: the orangutang go against the gymnasts and I couldn't remember

1172
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,279
Speaker 4: who was like one long obstacle or like.

1173
00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 2: A series of obstacles.

1174
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,600
Speaker 4: But you have this fat ass like orangutang scratching his

1175
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:34,080
Speaker 4: buttthole and sniffing his fingers. Meanwhile, you got this fucking

1176
00:52:34,480 --> 00:52:38,640
Speaker 4: jacked gymnasts who is so muscular and you know they

1177
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 4: like go and the fucking orangutank is just sitting there

1178
00:52:41,480 --> 00:52:43,200
Speaker 4: hanging out like he's loitering in front of the seven

1179
00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,759
Speaker 4: to eleven. Meanwhile, the gymnast is like screaming through.

1180
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:48,560
Speaker 2: You know, the obstacle course.

1181
00:52:48,760 --> 00:52:50,759
Speaker 4: Finally, the Orangutank's like, all right, let me go beat

1182
00:52:50,800 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 4: up on this fucking, you know, lesser primate and just

1183
00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:57,480
Speaker 4: with like three strokes of the swing on the monkey

1184
00:52:57,520 --> 00:53:00,960
Speaker 4: bars zooms right past him. It was like, I was

1185
00:53:01,000 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 4: the most amazing shit, dude. Fox used to be the

1186
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:05,560
Speaker 4: dumbest shit back in the day. But the best thing,

1187
00:53:05,600 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 4: it was the best thing on television.

1188
00:53:07,400 --> 00:53:09,760
Speaker 3: Somebody raced an animal, I remember, and they got smoked.

1189
00:53:09,760 --> 00:53:11,960
Speaker 3: You can't beat animals. Come on, I mean, seriously, we're

1190
00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:14,080
Speaker 3: still we're still doing this right now. All right, Luca,

1191
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:15,880
Speaker 3: it's time for you to take an l u.

1192
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 2: What all right?

1193
00:53:19,080 --> 00:53:23,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay. When referencing the RDA Connor McGregor press conference

1194
00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:25,360
Speaker 3: ahead of UFC one ninety six in the fight that

1195
00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:28,840
Speaker 3: never happened. Uh, you mentioned that Connor wore almost the

1196
00:53:28,920 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 3: exact same shirt that Pablo el scabar war turned out

1197
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:34,040
Speaker 3: it was L Choppo.

1198
00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:37,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, yeah, I almost have misspoke. Yes, that's I'll

1199
00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:37,920
Speaker 2: take the L.

1200
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,160
Speaker 4: I did not mean to do that, but yes, it's

1201
00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:43,239
Speaker 4: a famous photo with Choppo going something like this and

1202
00:53:43,280 --> 00:53:45,440
Speaker 4: the blue sort of like what'd you call that?

1203
00:53:45,520 --> 00:53:47,640
Speaker 2: BC tied I something like that.

1204
00:53:47,840 --> 00:53:50,560
Speaker 3: It was like a he wore it when he met

1205
00:53:50,600 --> 00:53:51,240
Speaker 3: Sean Penn.

1206
00:53:51,239 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 4: I don't know that story, but okay, well, anyway, Pablo

1207
00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:56,719
Speaker 4: Escobar dressed much more plainly.

1208
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:01,800
Speaker 2: Chopo was a little bit more flair for the dramatic.

1209
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:02,799
Speaker 2: I guess you could say, well.

1210
00:54:02,680 --> 00:54:05,239
Speaker 3: Our people are saying that Connor did once post an

1211
00:54:05,239 --> 00:54:08,600
Speaker 3: ig photo of him wearing Pablo's mugshot on a tank top.

1212
00:54:08,680 --> 00:54:11,120
Speaker 3: So Luke, it must have played with your mind and

1213
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:15,400
Speaker 3: you screwed up your South American dictators drug traders.

1214
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:18,200
Speaker 2: Aos a North American drug lord. No South American?

1215
00:54:18,840 --> 00:54:22,960
Speaker 3: Maybe Central American, Okay, maybe American. All right, We're all

1216
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,279
Speaker 3: Americans at the end of the day. All Right, I'm

1217
00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:27,640
Speaker 3: gonna take an L here. On Wednesday's show, I was

1218
00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 3: referencing Muhammad Ali turning around his public image through philanthropy

1219
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,280
Speaker 3: and all that, and I referenced him as a former

1220
00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,439
Speaker 3: black panther. That is dead wrong, Luke.

1221
00:54:37,120 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 2: He said he was a black panther on the show.

1222
00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:43,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, I did. Apparently I don't have that. Apparently he

1223
00:54:43,080 --> 00:54:45,560
Speaker 3: was in the Nation of Islam's different.

1224
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:47,920
Speaker 4: By the way, the name Mhammad Ali is apparently a

1225
00:54:48,080 --> 00:54:51,799
Speaker 4: very it was an it's a very coveted name for

1226
00:54:51,960 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 4: I guess, not just for people who convert, but for

1227
00:54:54,320 --> 00:54:56,839
Speaker 4: names generally. And they had saved that name for him

1228
00:54:56,840 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 4: because obviously he was initially Cassius Clay, but he was

1229
00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:02,279
Speaker 4: a member of the Nation of Islam. But no, not

1230
00:55:02,360 --> 00:55:05,240
Speaker 4: a black panther. Two very, very very different things.

1231
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:09,279
Speaker 3: I apologize for that. That dead wrong there, Ah, Luke.

1232
00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:14,359
Speaker 3: Let's let's continue this. Apparently people are telling me I'm

1233
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:16,520
Speaker 3: dead wrong for not taking you off the hook of

1234
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,439
Speaker 3: your dead wrong a week ago. So this all started, Luke,

1235
00:55:19,719 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 3: when Jennifer Mayah made her ring entrance to get sent

1236
00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,840
Speaker 3: to Hell by Valentino Shipchenka, although the sending never quite happened,

1237
00:55:27,239 --> 00:55:33,879
Speaker 3: and she walked out to TNT by ac DC. Well,

1238
00:55:33,920 --> 00:55:36,919
Speaker 3: here's the double dead wrong here. Luke Okay. Last week,

1239
00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,520
Speaker 3: in defending it, you said, it's the same shit. It's

1240
00:55:40,680 --> 00:55:44,719
Speaker 3: just like everybody knows the Who's Baba O'Reilly people call

1241
00:55:44,800 --> 00:55:51,839
Speaker 3: a teenage. Those are two different songs, Luke Okay. Yes,

1242
00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 3: TNT and Dirty Deeds have a similar melody to them,

1243
00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 3: but they are two different freaking songs.

1244
00:55:58,000 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 4: You are dead wrong, and so you wrong because when

1245
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:04,239
Speaker 4: I said that also dead wrong thing, you didn't correct me.

1246
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:06,719
Speaker 3: No, I didn't. In real time. I didn't correct you.

1247
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,719
Speaker 3: But that does make a lot of sense. So let's

1248
00:56:08,719 --> 00:56:10,600
Speaker 3: put that to bed for good. You're dead wrong. One

1249
00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:13,680
Speaker 3: more additional dead wrong. I was mentioning how rare it

1250
00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:17,040
Speaker 3: is for a boxing match not involving Floyd and Connor

1251
00:56:17,120 --> 00:56:21,000
Speaker 3: or Floyd in Paccio to do more than one million

1252
00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:24,560
Speaker 3: buys sense maypack. I was dead wrong to forget that

1253
00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 3: Canelo when he fought julioseys Ar Chavez Junior a couple

1254
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,600
Speaker 3: of years back, did cross that one million pay per

1255
00:56:30,680 --> 00:56:33,400
Speaker 3: view plateau. It was a you know, obviously a matchup

1256
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:37,120
Speaker 3: between two Mexican icons. Although the fight blee chunks, and

1257
00:56:37,520 --> 00:56:39,759
Speaker 3: I did want to address one thing. People tried to

1258
00:56:39,800 --> 00:56:42,560
Speaker 3: double me up on the dead wrong Luke and say, well,

1259
00:56:42,560 --> 00:56:46,160
Speaker 3: what about aj Anthony Joshua. He's doing a million every

1260
00:56:46,200 --> 00:56:50,040
Speaker 3: single time. He's doing a million in the UK every

1261
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 3: single time. And here's the difference. I'm not trying to

1262
00:56:52,480 --> 00:56:54,839
Speaker 3: be you know, USA only, but we when we talk

1263
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,799
Speaker 3: about pay per view numbers, we talk about them in

1264
00:56:56,840 --> 00:56:59,240
Speaker 3: the sense of the US because that's how they're tracked.

1265
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,960
Speaker 3: In the UK, they do have a vibrant pay per

1266
00:57:02,000 --> 00:57:05,000
Speaker 3: view market, but they traditionally charged like twenty or thirty

1267
00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,480
Speaker 3: bucks for the shows, where in the States we charge

1268
00:57:07,800 --> 00:57:11,719
Speaker 3: seventy five one hundred dollars. So it's not a fair comparison.

1269
00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 3: If we charged twenty five bucks here, I think we would,

1270
00:57:15,600 --> 00:57:16,120
Speaker 3: we would have.

1271
00:57:16,200 --> 00:57:20,840
Speaker 4: Ridiculous what's the equivalent of thirty English pounds to.

1272
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 2: Dollars, So thirty would be about forty bucks.

1273
00:57:24,040 --> 00:57:27,800
Speaker 3: So yeah, in fairness, so they're basically looks, yes, they're

1274
00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 3: half pricing their pay per view. So yes, in John

1275
00:57:30,480 --> 00:57:34,120
Speaker 3: Anthony josh was a monster star, especially on that side

1276
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:36,200
Speaker 3: of the globe. But in the US he has not

1277
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:39,480
Speaker 3: reached that one million mark. So that's that, Luke dead wrong.

1278
00:57:39,360 --> 00:57:41,439
Speaker 2: On all right, thank you, fair enough? These were better

1279
00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:43,400
Speaker 2: this week. These were they got us dead to rights

1280
00:57:43,400 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 2: on these ones, we see.

1281
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,600
Speaker 3: Okay, we Luke, didn't have to lose. Look Mikey, our producer,

1282
00:57:47,640 --> 00:57:49,640
Speaker 3: Mikey Morms, he was a little nervous at bringing up

1283
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 3: the TNT thing again to you, Luke. He thought he

1284
00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:53,440
Speaker 3: was gonna lose. You thought he was gonna lose your

1285
00:57:53,440 --> 00:57:53,920
Speaker 3: shot on him.

1286
00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 2: Okay, the only ones.

1287
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,080
Speaker 4: I just get pissed about what it's like you said

1288
00:57:57,360 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 4: X And I look at the tape and it was

1289
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:02,240
Speaker 4: like not even like no, like there's no possible way

1290
00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 4: to interpret that other than being deaf. That's the shit

1291
00:58:05,160 --> 00:58:07,360
Speaker 4: I get angry about. But these are all fair These

1292
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:08,800
Speaker 4: are all fair game.

1293
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:12,840
Speaker 3: All right. We're breezing through this show today, Luke. It

1294
00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:14,960
Speaker 3: is Friday, right, There's no rules we can put out

1295
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 3: in our show. F you if you think differently, But

1296
00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,640
Speaker 3: it's tip to tip time, Luke, just for a second,

1297
00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 3: just to see how it feels. We close every Friday,

1298
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 3: of course, with offering you advice something to look out for.

1299
00:58:27,800 --> 00:58:29,720
Speaker 2: Did you see the animey?

1300
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:32,160
Speaker 4: I want them to play the animation again, and I

1301
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,080
Speaker 4: want you to look in the bottom left hand corner

1302
00:58:34,080 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 4: of your screen.

1303
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:36,560
Speaker 2: Can you play that again? Look at the look at that.

1304
00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 2: It's them shaking hands through the pants.

1305
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, oh yeah, it's great stuff. It's very manly, Luke,

1306
00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:47,400
Speaker 3: we are a sad group. Uh do you want to

1307
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:48,400
Speaker 3: share your sad tip?

1308
00:58:48,440 --> 00:58:51,800
Speaker 4: First, Luke, I didn't have much. I kind of joked

1309
00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 4: I was borrowing from Dustin Poarier. Stay hydrated, just because

1310
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,440
Speaker 4: you've been seeing me. I'd been drinking these all show.

1311
00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:01,600
Speaker 4: But more than that, actually, I'll give you a piece

1312
00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:04,760
Speaker 4: of impromptu advice. I get a lot of questions about

1313
00:59:04,800 --> 00:59:07,120
Speaker 4: my studio setup, and I'm still working on it before

1314
00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 4: I want to show everyone what I'm doing. I'm building

1315
00:59:09,480 --> 00:59:12,200
Speaker 4: a tag board power station over here. I've got a

1316
00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,080
Speaker 4: lot of things going on. But I've repainted it, I've

1317
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:16,480
Speaker 4: remodeled it, I've got all my equipment set up.

1318
00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:17,840
Speaker 2: It's just a little bit disorganized, and.

1319
00:59:17,840 --> 00:59:19,600
Speaker 4: I want to get that organization straight before I get

1320
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,520
Speaker 4: it going for wider consumption. But there's a place I've

1321
00:59:22,600 --> 00:59:25,520
Speaker 4: used routinely. If anyone out there not even wants to

1322
00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:26,880
Speaker 4: be on YouTube, but you want to know a little

1323
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:28,960
Speaker 4: bit more about how to use maybe your camera phone

1324
00:59:29,440 --> 00:59:32,160
Speaker 4: make kind of video presentations, either for social media, for

1325
00:59:32,320 --> 00:59:34,680
Speaker 4: YouTube or something else. Even just to make fun, creative

1326
00:59:34,680 --> 00:59:37,280
Speaker 4: stuff for yourself or your friends, but also for people

1327
00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 4: who want to make a career out of YouTube. There's

1328
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:43,000
Speaker 4: a channel that is just invaluable. It's called think Media.

1329
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:47,080
Speaker 4: Think Media. Just google that on or just search, I

1330
00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:50,360
Speaker 4: should say, on YouTube. They've got hundreds off, not thousands

1331
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,400
Speaker 4: of videos. Some of them may pertain to you, some

1332
00:59:52,440 --> 00:59:54,240
Speaker 4: of them may not. But if you've ever been kind

1333
00:59:54,280 --> 00:59:56,320
Speaker 4: of curious about, hey, how do I do this? On

1334
00:59:56,360 --> 01:00:00,920
Speaker 4: YouTube or Instagram or Twitter or with video or cameras

1335
01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:04,920
Speaker 4: or anything involved in that world, it's good for beginners

1336
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,200
Speaker 4: and intermediates. Like once you get advanced, it's a little

1337
01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:10,040
Speaker 4: bit less relevant. But for those two groups, Think Media

1338
01:00:10,600 --> 01:00:12,640
Speaker 4: lots and lots of good stuff for them. And then

1339
01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,560
Speaker 4: of course over the weekend, stay hydrated.

1340
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:17,280
Speaker 3: Thank you very much for that, Luke. I will take

1341
01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:19,760
Speaker 3: that tip. I will receive the tip. My tip this

1342
01:00:19,800 --> 01:00:21,640
Speaker 3: week is, look, I want to continue where I've been

1343
01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:24,960
Speaker 3: going on this vinyl journey with myself and trying to

1344
01:00:25,000 --> 01:00:27,360
Speaker 3: share it with you, and I'll continue to say this

1345
01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:29,920
Speaker 3: classic rock radio has lied to us. I was a

1346
01:00:30,000 --> 01:00:32,280
Speaker 3: long classic rock fan and the music snob, and I

1347
01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:34,640
Speaker 3: love sixties rock and I love the big bands of

1348
01:00:34,680 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 3: the seventies and nineties grunge, and a few of the

1349
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:39,920
Speaker 3: eighties weird stuff as well. I never realized that the

1350
01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:43,280
Speaker 3: seventies is the greatest decade in music in rock history.

1351
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:47,280
Speaker 3: And it's not just my expansion into bands like Genesis

1352
01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:50,240
Speaker 3: and Chicago, which you know, again, classic rock radio painted

1353
01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,800
Speaker 3: a certain picture of who you thought they were. I'm

1354
01:00:52,800 --> 01:00:56,040
Speaker 3: finding out that I'm a fan of so many more things.

1355
01:00:56,120 --> 01:00:58,240
Speaker 3: And one of those things when you give me five

1356
01:00:58,320 --> 01:01:00,920
Speaker 3: days alone and in Los Angeles hotel room and I

1357
01:01:00,960 --> 01:01:04,040
Speaker 3: can't even leave my room because of quarantine, I'm gonna

1358
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 3: go deep. Luke, I've begun the deep dive on an

1359
01:01:07,400 --> 01:01:10,560
Speaker 3: artist who I have long hated, didn't like her, didn't

1360
01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:13,280
Speaker 3: like what she stood for, didn't like her music, And

1361
01:01:13,320 --> 01:01:15,600
Speaker 3: now I'm head over heels in love because I went

1362
01:01:15,680 --> 01:01:18,080
Speaker 3: for it. Luke, I don't care what you think about me.

1363
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,320
Speaker 3: I don't care what the people think about me. I

1364
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:25,800
Speaker 3: am shamelessly addicted to Joni Mitchell's prime seventies catalog, her

1365
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:31,520
Speaker 3: expansion into full time jazz, her absolutely stunning, incredible one

1366
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:34,240
Speaker 3: of the best five albums of all time nineteen seventy

1367
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:39,439
Speaker 3: two is Blue. I Am head over heels in love

1368
01:01:39,480 --> 01:01:43,160
Speaker 3: with this crazy genius and her brilliance is. I mean, look,

1369
01:01:43,440 --> 01:01:46,640
Speaker 3: maybe I'm predisposed maybe to like this because Bob Dylan's

1370
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:49,960
Speaker 3: my favorite artist of all time. But I assumed that

1371
01:01:50,080 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 3: this woman was as annoying as her public image, and

1372
01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:57,640
Speaker 3: it's not. She's a freakin genius and I'm all over,

1373
01:01:57,960 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 3: Ladies of the Canyon. Yah. I mean, I am so

1374
01:02:02,200 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 3: damn deep on all things, Joni, and I don't care

1375
01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:08,360
Speaker 3: what any of you think about me. How the hell

1376
01:02:08,400 --> 01:02:10,720
Speaker 3: have I gone this long as a credible music fan

1377
01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 3: and self proclinmed snob and not taken the taste test, Luke,

1378
01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:19,960
Speaker 3: I have tasted. I have seen. This freaking alien genius

1379
01:02:20,280 --> 01:02:22,520
Speaker 3: is everything I need right now at age forty two,

1380
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:24,640
Speaker 3: stuck in a hotel room. Thank you.

1381
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:26,840
Speaker 2: I'm not one of these dudes who.

1382
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:32,000
Speaker 4: Buys into the idea that you have to standardize across

1383
01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:37,600
Speaker 4: races and genders who you read or listen to or watch, right,

1384
01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:40,200
Speaker 4: but you should ask yourself a question. Go through any

1385
01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:43,000
Speaker 4: books you might have, See how many are male authors?

1386
01:02:43,040 --> 01:02:45,080
Speaker 4: See how many are female? Go through your record collection,

1387
01:02:45,480 --> 01:02:47,560
Speaker 4: see how many are female? See how many are male?

1388
01:02:47,600 --> 01:02:49,120
Speaker 2: And then begin to see if there's any kind of

1389
01:02:49,120 --> 01:02:53,640
Speaker 2: pattern there, and listen, everyone's gonna have their own favors

1390
01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:55,960
Speaker 2: or your style. You may like a certain.

1391
01:02:55,720 --> 01:02:58,840
Speaker 4: Style of music, this is not particularly populated by one

1392
01:02:58,880 --> 01:03:02,440
Speaker 4: gender or the other, whatever that may be. But I

1393
01:03:02,680 --> 01:03:04,920
Speaker 4: begin to notice it was like, dude, I listened to

1394
01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:08,040
Speaker 4: a lot of dudes all the time, right, I read

1395
01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:09,960
Speaker 4: a lot of books from dudes. I listen to mostly

1396
01:03:10,320 --> 01:03:12,959
Speaker 4: Cannibal Corpse and Vinnie Paz or when I'm watching it's

1397
01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:13,920
Speaker 4: blah blah blah.

1398
01:03:14,040 --> 01:03:15,320
Speaker 2: I try now and again.

1399
01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:19,120
Speaker 3: Look porn, your porn search history, a lot of dudes.

1400
01:03:19,120 --> 01:03:20,680
Speaker 4: It just is what it is, you know, Even then,

1401
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,400
Speaker 4: all roads lead to James Dean. I'm just pointing out BC.

1402
01:03:23,800 --> 01:03:25,400
Speaker 4: Sometimes you got to take a moment to step outside

1403
01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:27,800
Speaker 4: of yourself and say, wait a second, who is somebody

1404
01:03:27,800 --> 01:03:29,520
Speaker 4: I've maybe never listened to it and doesn't have to

1405
01:03:29,560 --> 01:03:32,120
Speaker 4: be defined by gender per se, But that can sometimes

1406
01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:35,280
Speaker 4: be an easier way to find something new if you

1407
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:39,080
Speaker 4: have a predominant trend towards one kind of side of things.

1408
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,320
Speaker 4: And so I don't know if that's your case, per se,

1409
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:44,200
Speaker 4: but I've definitely caught myself. I would call it making

1410
01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,919
Speaker 4: a mistake, but just kind of correcting for my own

1411
01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:49,960
Speaker 4: myopia at times, and more often than not, I find

1412
01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:51,920
Speaker 4: something new that I at least like a little.

1413
01:03:51,680 --> 01:03:53,120
Speaker 2: Bit, you know.

1414
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:56,720
Speaker 3: And I've been slow in the past, So this is

1415
01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 3: a good point that you just made to really cherish

1416
01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 3: great female rock or folk artists or whatever on that level.

1417
01:04:03,120 --> 01:04:05,360
