00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 4: ninety eight. But Ken Flag, I got a little game

32
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 4: to play with you off the top of the program today.

33
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:45,479
Speaker 2: What do you got?

34
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 1: The game's called overrated, underrated, properly rated, And the jumping

35
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,840
Speaker 1: off point for this is that a lot of fans

36
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 1: will suggest to me that as commentators, we either overrate

37
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: a fighter or we underrate a fighter, And Kamzat Chimai

38
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 1: is one name that comes to mind. A lot of

39
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,400
Speaker 1: fans suggest that I have overrated him, either when it

40
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,840
Speaker 1: comes to his cardiovascular base or just his overall skill set.

41
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,120
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna throw some names out there, and you

42
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: got to give me overrated, underrated, or as they might

43
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: say in Boston, properly rated, right all right? Overrated, underrated,

44
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,799
Speaker 1: properly rated. Charles dubronx Oliver, a future Hall of Famer.

45
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,040
Speaker 1: Is he overrated, underrated or properly rated.

46
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 2: I think he's properly rated, to be honest, and you

47
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:35,400
Speaker 2: look at what he has done from a submission standpoint alone,

48
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 2: he's got the record. I don't think a whole lot

49
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 2: of people are going to be right there behind him

50
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:45,079
Speaker 2: for a while anyway. So yeah, I think he's properly rated.

51
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 2: You look at what he's done. From a striking standpoint,

52
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 2: he's always dangerous. He's one of the most exciting fighters

53
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,360
Speaker 2: in this sport today.

54
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, strong agreement there. I would suggest that Charles Olivera

55
00:02:55,320 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 4: is properly rated. Yuri pro Hoska, Now, after his fight

56
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,440
Speaker 4: against Alex Padada, there was sort of a groundswell of

57
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 4: the fan base suggesting that maybe we had overrated pro Hoska.

58
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,360
Speaker 4: Certainly accomplished a lot before he got to the UFC,

59
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 4: but things happened expeditiously when he got here. What do

60
00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:16,480
Speaker 4: you think about Uri pro Hosco overrated, underrated, or properly rated.

61
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 2: So I assume we're talking from a skill standpoint, right,

62
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,639
Speaker 2: because you know, as far as delivering action and going

63
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 2: out there to win that fight by a finish, he's

64
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 2: properly rated. Now from a skill standpoint, I think he

65
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,679
Speaker 2: might be a bit overrated. Why, I think you know,

66
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 2: he tends to get a little lazy with his hands sometimes,

67
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 2: it gets a little reckless sometimes, so hard to be

68
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: consistent long term with that style. So let's give him

69
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 2: a titbit of being overrated.

70
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,360
Speaker 4: It's a hard exercise, right, because you can't go through

71
00:03:48,440 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 4: all of these names. I think I have nine or

72
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,600
Speaker 4: ten names for you and not suggest that any of

73
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 4: these athletes is not overrated. But we have some interesting names.

74
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 4: Sugar Sean O'Malley, overrated, underrated or properly rated?

75
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 2: Yeah? Can I go first on this one, please?

76
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 4: So I think as a grappler and his willingness to

77
00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 4: grapple in that realm, I do believe that Shan O'Malley

78
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 4: is underrated, but there's not a lot of proof, at

79
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 4: least on film. So I think he's an underrated grappler.

80
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 4: I think he's properly rated as the striker and sniper

81
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 4: that he is. I would suggest he's a little bit

82
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 4: underrated when it comes to just the cardiovascular commitment and

83
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 4: the overall work ethic.

84
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 2: Right.

85
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,119
Speaker 4: I think certainly the mirage is out there and people

86
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,320
Speaker 4: see him smoking weed, right, there are plenty of fighters

87
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 4: that smoke one hundred times more weed than Shan O'Malley does,

88
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,840
Speaker 4: even though he's become synonymous with that substance. I would

89
00:04:45,839 --> 00:04:48,440
Speaker 4: say Sean O'Malley, in certain parts of his game is

90
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 4: still underrated despite being a UFC champion.

91
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's an interesting argument. You know, the

92
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:56,599
Speaker 2: most common thing I get from people who have seen

93
00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 2: Shat O'Malley fight is that I think he's overrated. Did YadA,

94
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,400
Speaker 2: yah YadA. How can a guy be overrated when you

95
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 2: go out there and knock out one of the best,

96
00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,960
Speaker 2: uh you know, bantamweight champions of all time in al

97
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:14,599
Speaker 2: Jamaine Sterling, and he did it while he was injured, right,

98
00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,440
Speaker 2: I mean that that that's insane. So I think it

99
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 2: kind of all balanced itself out, and we have a

100
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,719
Speaker 2: properly rated fighter in a lot of ways at Sean O'Malley.

101
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:26,159
Speaker 1: So this one could be interesting. Patty Pimblin.

102
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,280
Speaker 2: Overrated. I think he's overrated because of this. I think

103
00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,440
Speaker 2: he's popular. I think he's exciting, you know. I like

104
00:05:33,520 --> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 2: hearing him talk. I love the acts and all that stuff.

105
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:38,800
Speaker 2: From a skill standpoint, though he's got a long way

106
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: to go. I would love to be proven wrong over time,

107
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,839
Speaker 2: but I do think he's uh, he's overrated.

108
00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 4: Yes, overrated, underrated, properly rated. Kam Zat Chimayev.

109
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,840
Speaker 2: Gosh, this is interesting. You know. I was very much

110
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,400
Speaker 2: on the Chimaya of train. I think that seeing him

111
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,599
Speaker 2: fade a little bit over the course of a fight

112
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 2: makes me a little bit concerned for when he does

113
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 2: go in there for a five rounder for the belt

114
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 2: against certain guys. So I think he's slightly overrated, slightly overrated,

115
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 2: but certainly capable of being a world champion in that sport.

116
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 2: So I do think he doesn't have a whole lot

117
00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 2: of experience right now, so I'd like to see a

118
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,680
Speaker 2: little bit more. But so I would say slightly overrated.

119
00:06:32,720 --> 00:06:33,040
Speaker 2: How's that?

120
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's fair.

121
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:39,360
Speaker 4: But certainly as a welterweight formerly an absolute monster, and

122
00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,160
Speaker 4: I thought it would have been an eventuality that he

123
00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:43,240
Speaker 4: become a UFC champion if he could actually make the

124
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 4: weight consistently. Remains to be seen as to whether or

125
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,360
Speaker 4: not he can realize gold at one hundred and eighty

126
00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:52,080
Speaker 4: five pounds. But when Dana White talks in these lofty

127
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:55,599
Speaker 4: terms about Kamzachimayev and suggests that he's never seen anything

128
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:56,080
Speaker 4: like him.

129
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 1: Largely I subscribe to that theory.

130
00:06:57,960 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 4: I still think he's one of a few guys that

131
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,200
Speaker 4: I've never seen anything like him in terms of a

132
00:07:03,279 --> 00:07:05,240
Speaker 4: comp so I would say that Kamzat Chimai have has

133
00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 4: properly rated light. How about Dustin Pourier hasn't won the

134
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 4: undisputed prize? Overrated, underrated or properly rated.

135
00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 2: I think properly rated to see what he's accomplished in

136
00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,680
Speaker 2: both divisions really and now really settled in to be

137
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: an absolute force at one hundred thirty five pounds. Properly rated, all.

138
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 4: Right, Mehrob Dwallish Willy We talked a little bit with

139
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 4: Ray Long earlier this week about Morob. I think he's

140
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 4: underappreciated in terms of the offensive fighter that he is,

141
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,840
Speaker 4: in terms of the entertainment value and all that. But overrated, underrated,

142
00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 4: properly rated, Morob Dwallish Willy Ding Ding Ding my first

143
00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 4: underrated vote here.

144
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:42,760
Speaker 2: I think he's underrated, man. I don't think people appreciate,

145
00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 2: truly appreciate how much energy and how much skill he

146
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 2: puts in his fights. He's an absolute terror. Uh to

147
00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:51,360
Speaker 2: to go again, Al.

148
00:07:51,320 --> 00:07:54,600
Speaker 1: Jamaine Sterling, overrated, underrated, properly rated.

149
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 2: I think he's a little bit underrated as well, to

150
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 2: be honest, you know, I don't think he was appreciated

151
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,480
Speaker 2: as much, certainly when he was champion as some of

152
00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: the other guys in the division. Whether it was people

153
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:09,480
Speaker 2: who you know, were rubbed the wrong way because of

154
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:13,120
Speaker 2: things he said or whatever. But I think he was underrated. Man.

155
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: To see what he did at one hundred and thirty

156
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 2: five pounds and the amount of weight that he had

157
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,440
Speaker 2: to cut the guys that he beat, I'd say underrated,

158
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:20,680
Speaker 2: all right.

159
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,680
Speaker 4: And we will close it out with two names that

160
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:28,120
Speaker 4: will be fighting at UFC two ninety eight this weekend. Overrated, underrated,

161
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 4: properly rated, Ian Maschado Gary.

162
00:08:32,600 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 2: So I am. I am definitely high on at Gary.

163
00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: I think he's a great fighter. I think there's certain

164
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 2: people who would say he is strongly overrated right now.

165
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:51,839
Speaker 2: I don't think he's underrated, you know, I don't. I

166
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,040
Speaker 2: don't think that's the case.

167
00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 4: I think he's properly rated by his contemporaries right now,

168
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 4: as like a Muhammad when they are asked about stylistic

169
00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 4: challenges in this welterweight division, they acknowledge him. Certainly, a

170
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 4: lot of his former Kilcliff FC teammates have talked about

171
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,640
Speaker 4: just how good he is. Derek Brunson comes to mind.

172
00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,040
Speaker 4: I actually think he's a little bit underrated in terms

173
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,360
Speaker 4: of certain parts of his game, his ability to weaponize

174
00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:20,679
Speaker 4: cardio and everything else. So forced to choose, I know

175
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,400
Speaker 4: this is probably the minority opinion I think he and Mashadogary.

176
00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,199
Speaker 4: If I believe he can be a world champion, which

177
00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 4: I do, then I think he's underrated right now, got

178
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:29,160
Speaker 4: to least by the fan base.

179
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: Right. The record speaks for itself too. You know, he's

180
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,320
Speaker 2: faced some good guys. No one really has had an

181
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 2: answer for him, and I think this will be another

182
00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 2: great test for him moving forward. I think he's properly

183
00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 2: rated at this stage of the game. Man, all right,

184
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:50,160
Speaker 2: last one, Paolo Costa Ooh, tough, gush this, This is

185
00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,040
Speaker 2: a tough one. There's a part of me that says

186
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,079
Speaker 2: he's underrated. He definitely has some skills to improve on,

187
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 2: but for example, this fight against winn Man, I think

188
00:10:02,200 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 2: that if you underrate someone like Paula Costaid. Yes, he's

189
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,959
Speaker 2: been away for a little a little while. I think

190
00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:11,320
Speaker 2: that will be to your own detriment. Costa is a problem.

191
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,719
Speaker 2: He loves to get in your face. He throws a

192
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 2: lot of volume when he's active, and he's and he's

193
00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:21,640
Speaker 2: in his rhythm, and yeah, I think those are those

194
00:10:22,960 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 2: those are things that kind of people kind of forget

195
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 2: about a little bit. I think a lot of people

196
00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 2: still have that memory of Adasadya, Yes, kind of schooling him, right,

197
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,040
Speaker 2: So I think that's kind of the yeah, the knock

198
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,360
Speaker 2: on him. But so for that, I think he's a

199
00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 2: little underrated. He He's going to be a problem for

200
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:39,800
Speaker 2: a lot of guys.

201
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,000
Speaker 4: Dude, I would agree health is wealth, but noted I

202
00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:44,599
Speaker 4: and the work ethic and the warrior. And part of

203
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,120
Speaker 4: the reason he hasn't been able to make the walk

204
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 4: consistently is because he trains so goddamn hard, and whether

205
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 4: it's been staph infections or elbow injuries, things have caught

206
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,880
Speaker 4: up with him because he goes so goddamn hard. All right,

207
00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,520
Speaker 4: Dan Tom coming up in about a minute. But fight

Speaker 5: It's an honor to be here with you guys. Obviously

244
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:37,760
Speaker 5: big fan. I'm a big listener of the show if

245
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:39,599
Speaker 5: you believe it, believe it or not. And I'm not

246
00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:41,880
Speaker 5: just saying that to blow smoke up your butts there.

247
00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 5: And you know, I'm a big fan of you. But

248
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 5: I don't know a lot of people, even my own listeners,

249
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,319
Speaker 5: are surprised to know that one of my favorite fighters,

250
00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 5: you know, I'm five nine from why You're gonna think

251
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:53,240
Speaker 5: it's Bjpenn Right? No, No, I was a Kenny Florian fan,

252
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 5: one of the fighters at Hell, one of the fighters.

253
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,000
Speaker 5: I was a tough nude man, so I gravitated toward

254
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 5: Ken Flow. I'm going to spare, you know, just pouring

255
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:04,959
Speaker 5: my compliments toward the guy, but Ken Flow fans, So

256
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:05,640
Speaker 5: this is big for me.

257
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,319
Speaker 3: Man, Yeah, thank you guy.

258
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 1: That's pretty cool.

259
00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,840
Speaker 4: So you know, you're one of the go to minds

260
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 4: I think for a lot of us when we're preparate,

261
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 4: when we're preparing for these fights, and certainly I know

262
00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:18,160
Speaker 4: you have a lot of respect from the fan base

263
00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 4: just in terms of the way you eat film and

264
00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 4: the way you're able to assess what is inherently a

265
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:27,559
Speaker 4: really technical, tricky sport I think for a lot of people.

266
00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: So what was the jumping off point for you?

267
00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,000
Speaker 4: Like when did you become a rabid mixed martial arts

268
00:13:33,040 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 4: fan that has become one of the better analysts out there.

269
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:39,439
Speaker 5: It's way too kind of the compliments, but basically, you know,

270
00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 5: I got into martial arts, you know, kind of like

271
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,240
Speaker 5: through the gateway martial arts here in the United States,

272
00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 5: taekwondo in the nineties. You know, I don't believe that,

273
00:13:46,679 --> 00:13:48,360
Speaker 5: you know, you should be earning black belts or anything

274
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 5: under eighteen. But I did compete at a national level

275
00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 5: for what it's worth, and got into a Chinese campo,

276
00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 5: which was you know, in the gee like a karate

277
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:56,240
Speaker 5: kind of.

278
00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:57,880
Speaker 3: As all things are kind of sold here in the States.

279
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 5: From that, and I actually went to China twice shot

280
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 5: trained the shalland Temple two summers. From what I gather,

281
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 5: I was there the same summer as a young Dan

282
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 5: Hardy in the summer of two thousand, in the same province.

283
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:11,319
Speaker 3: Because there there are multiple temples there.

284
00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 5: So of course, you know, I'm still kind of nobody now,

285
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 5: and and Dan Hardy wasn't you know Dan Hardy back then.

286
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,480
Speaker 3: But I thought that was kind of cool. And I

287
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:21,920
Speaker 3: always had that martial art bug.

288
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,640
Speaker 5: And I was aware of mixed martial arts, right, you know,

289
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,520
Speaker 5: see the K one buses pull into town with Scotti Cookes.

290
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 5: Back in the day here in Vegas, we'd see the MMA,

291
00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 5: you know, all the you know, the old school, you know,

292
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:34,880
Speaker 5: you know, no holds bar stuff. But like I said,

293
00:14:34,920 --> 00:14:38,040
Speaker 5: it wasn't until about tough I was in a band

294
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,440
Speaker 5: and I kind of gave up on my martial arts days.

295
00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 5: But you know, my bass player would always come in

296
00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,800
Speaker 5: with his Mirco cro cop doing the split shirt said,

297
00:14:44,920 --> 00:14:47,480
Speaker 5: you know, Destiny awaits and of course I was probably

298
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:50,520
Speaker 5: cracking some you know, borderline homophobic comments as kids who

299
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,760
Speaker 5: grew up in the nineties and eighties, as we kind

300
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 5: of did, not making an excuse, but just to point

301
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 5: out the fact that I was a bit reluctant right

302
00:14:56,880 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 5: to kind of get in out of poke fun and like, whoah,

303
00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,720
Speaker 5: I bet you bet you liked that that stuff. And eventually,

304
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:04,000
Speaker 5: even though I'm not even a reality TV guy then

305
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 5: or now, it was it was that tough series that

306
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:10,000
Speaker 5: Kenny was on that got me into it and perhaps

307
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 5: portending the future, you know, the reason why I was

308
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:16,119
Speaker 5: you know, uh, you know, for lack of a better word, attracted,

309
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:19,200
Speaker 5: don't get nervous. Kenny attracted to Florian because he was

310
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 5: because you know, I didn't know he was a collegiate athlete.

311
00:15:22,240 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 5: Of course, so I'm not trying to you know, take

312
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 5: you know, take it in the spirit that it's meant.

313
00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 5: But Kenny didn't really stand out right. He was this pragmatic,

314
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:31,160
Speaker 5: more technical guy South Paul. I'm a big South Paul

315
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,080
Speaker 5: guy here. It's one of the few points of probably

316
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:36,040
Speaker 5: to have My analysis is my South Paul analysis.

317
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 3: So I gravitate towards South pause.

318
00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 5: And unfortunately I found out real quick after getting an

319
00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:43,520
Speaker 5: extreme coutur you know, after Randy wins his you know,

320
00:15:43,880 --> 00:15:47,240
Speaker 5: does his comeback, no offense can flow. But Randy becomes

321
00:15:47,280 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 5: one of my favorite fighters at that point, right join

322
00:15:49,360 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 5: Extreme Coutuur oh seven oh eight, and you know, found

323
00:15:52,920 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 5: out real quick I'm better at you know, talking about

324
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 5: teaching these things than I am at doing it right.

325
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 5: Had an amateur fight, you know, got you know, moped

326
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 5: for three rounds by Marvin Eastman's son, and by the

327
00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 5: time I was able to gather myself and get back

328
00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 5: into my second camp for an amateur fright in twenty fifteen,

329
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 5: I sustained a really bad concussion.

330
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,560
Speaker 3: And that's why we're these glasses. I know, I'm a hipster,

331
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:16,360
Speaker 3: but that's actually not why we're the glasses.

332
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:20,880
Speaker 5: It was a concussion sustained in training and it took

333
00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,320
Speaker 5: me a while to get back. Lost my corporate gig

334
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,040
Speaker 5: despite having insurance, an extra insurance because I was competing

335
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 5: At the time, I thought, maybe I'll get a broken

336
00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:30,240
Speaker 5: arm in a jiu jitsu match, let me pay for

337
00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 5: the extra insurance. But unfortunately, as we know, our healthcare system,

338
00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,400
Speaker 5: if there is an insurance system, isn't great here. So

339
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,360
Speaker 5: if there is, you know, not so sure science like

340
00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 5: head stuff, they're going to press that. And yeah, I

341
00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 5: was essentially denied coverage from a corporate gig that I

342
00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,240
Speaker 5: was tits at. It never missed a day for three years,

343
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 5: and they even denied me my Cobra insurance like your

344
00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,320
Speaker 5: insurance you're supposed to get when you leave. And it

345
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 5: was your Guys Coach of the Year nomination and other

346
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:58,000
Speaker 5: reason why I love this podcast. You guys named it

347
00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 5: after Robert fallas Coach of the Year. You know, I

348
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 5: came up under Neil Milanson originally, who gave me my

349
00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 5: kind of purple belt.

350
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 1: Even though he's more of a catch guy. We don't

351
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:06,560
Speaker 1: work in the gi.

352
00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 5: It was follless though it kind of convinced me to

353
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 5: get back into the gee, back into martial arts.

354
00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:11,359
Speaker 3: When I got injured.

355
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,920
Speaker 5: He was like, you know, Dan used to teach some

356
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,960
Speaker 5: of the classes, the basic classes of course, at the

357
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 5: drink oftur kids adults. He's like, you're pretty good at

358
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:19,200
Speaker 5: explaining this stuff.

359
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 2: You know.

360
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:21,600
Speaker 5: I know you're going mad because you can't get on

361
00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:23,880
Speaker 5: the mats because of the concussion. Why don't you try,

362
00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:26,000
Speaker 5: you know, breaking things down and writing about it. I

363
00:17:26,080 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 5: took Robert Follis's advice. Wow, next thing you know, I'm

364
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:30,800
Speaker 5: picked up by an outlet MMA ladist across the seas.

365
00:17:30,840 --> 00:17:32,800
Speaker 5: Then I'm picked up by Flow Combat I'm sure you

366
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:35,159
Speaker 5: guys heard of, and then from there picked up by

367
00:17:35,240 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 5: MMA Junkie by large part and help by the good

368
00:17:37,880 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 5: Grace's shout out to MMA Junkie Radio, Gorgeous George and

369
00:17:41,320 --> 00:17:43,760
Speaker 5: George George who have been doing amazing interviews with you

370
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:44,360
Speaker 5: both for years.

371
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 3: So I know you guys know those guys.

372
00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,760
Speaker 5: And sorry long winded, but that's the quick story to

373
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:52,359
Speaker 5: how I luckily got here turned a curse into a

374
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 5: blessing if.

375
00:17:52,960 --> 00:17:56,400
Speaker 2: You will, dude, that's awesome. Yeah, I would say shallon

376
00:17:56,520 --> 00:17:59,040
Speaker 2: Keppo karate guy as well, so we shared that in common.

377
00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:01,440
Speaker 2: That's goy. So you grew up in Hawaii, is that

378
00:18:01,520 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 2: the deal?

379
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 5: I came out in the early nineties, like with a

380
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 5: lot of the Hawaiians, who kind of migrated right because

381
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,320
Speaker 5: of the high prices and whatnot. I go back every

382
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 5: year all my family's up there. But yeah, I didn't

383
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 5: start my martial arts training, even though I actually have

384
00:18:13,600 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 5: martial arts family in Hawaii, I didn't start it till

385
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:18,879
Speaker 5: I was up in the States. Yeah, and I've pretty

386
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:20,760
Speaker 5: much only lived here and briefly in New York, where

387
00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 5: I was able to train at Marcelo Garcia's.

388
00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,520
Speaker 3: Only for a little bit because I couldn't afford it. Man,

389
00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 3: it was expensive out there.

390
00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:27,920
Speaker 2: That's awesome. There were some amazing people, man. But you

391
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 2: know what's most interesting are the street fights in Hawaii

392
00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:35,680
Speaker 2: are significantly better than anywhere else in the world, dude.

393
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:40,399
Speaker 2: Like you'll see lake kicks, tie kicks, set up knees, takedowns,

394
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,960
Speaker 2: like literally, these are the most technical street fights in

395
00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 2: the world. What is it about Hawaii that makes them?

396
00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 2: First of all, like, like they just very combative. They

397
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:52,120
Speaker 2: love fighting. Obviously there's a surf culture there too. They're

398
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:55,159
Speaker 2: protective of their environment. What is it about that that

399
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,480
Speaker 2: place that makes all these great fighters? And I guess

400
00:18:58,600 --> 00:18:59,480
Speaker 2: just fighting in general.

401
00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know, man, I don't want to get

402
00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 5: like too bro, sciency about it, you know, because there

403
00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:06,359
Speaker 5: are a lot of cultures like we talk about Daugistan,

404
00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 5: you know, and on these other places.

405
00:19:08,200 --> 00:19:08,960
Speaker 3: But it's funny.

406
00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,479
Speaker 5: We could really, you know, go back and select throughout

407
00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:13,320
Speaker 5: history and a lot of a lot of groups that

408
00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 5: went through a lot of adversity, right, So it's always

409
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,600
Speaker 5: hard to chalk it up to that. But I will

410
00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 5: say the one thing that is absolutely bro sciency that

411
00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 5: I will stand by if, like, you know, there's a

412
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 5: gun in my head, is that, Yeah, we are pretty

413
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 5: thick bone people.

414
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,160
Speaker 3: We have natural power for whatever reason.

415
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:29,160
Speaker 5: We have chins, which can be bad by the way,

416
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,560
Speaker 5: because some of us have relied on that a little

417
00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,920
Speaker 5: too much. But yeah, there is something to that, Matt,

418
00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:36,520
Speaker 5: I don't know what it is. A lot of a

419
00:19:36,520 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 5: lot of the guys are built to fight. I mean,

420
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:41,200
Speaker 5: even me, I'm the most non athletic non fighter there is.

421
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 5: Yet I can't help but do it.

422
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,680
Speaker 2: It's really weird and how cool has it been for

423
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 2: you man to see how far mixed martial arts has come.

424
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 2: It's from a from a technique standpoint, from a tactic standpoint, strategy.

425
00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 2: You know, what has that evolution been like for you

426
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,520
Speaker 2: as an analyst.

427
00:19:57,960 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 3: It's insane because it's still happening.

428
00:19:59,520 --> 00:20:01,440
Speaker 5: I mean, we could talk about the basic evolution that,

429
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:04,320
Speaker 5: thanks in part to the UFC and mixed martial arts

430
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 5: in general, just kind of put the whole mixed martial

431
00:20:06,840 --> 00:20:08,000
Speaker 5: arts world on steroids.

432
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,399
Speaker 3: Right, However, lately, what's been the cool thing?

433
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 5: And Kenny, perhaps you can relate to this, you know,

434
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,520
Speaker 5: perhaps when you went from Shaolin Kempell to working with

435
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:17,040
Speaker 5: Peter Welch and boxing where I was real big on

436
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 5: you know, when I went to coturis, I'm going to

437
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:20,840
Speaker 5: empty the cup. I'm not going to be like what's

438
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 5: killed In my opinion a lot of the traditional martial

439
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:25,800
Speaker 5: arts guys is that stubbornness to evolve, and I emptied

440
00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,320
Speaker 5: the cup. I'm going to do the obvious switches for

441
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 5: the switch kick, for the MMA, kickboxing boy tie and

442
00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,960
Speaker 5: all these things. And now as I'm getting into it

443
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 5: and getting more, you know, as a sports evolving and

444
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,400
Speaker 5: my Muay Thai coach I have with now even we're

445
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:41,160
Speaker 5: actually incorporating more. Some of these traditional stuff is getting

446
00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,680
Speaker 5: incorporated much more that you know. I'm sure Kenny, you

447
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 5: were told don't do that. Did disregard that? And Kenny.

448
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:48,399
Speaker 5: We had a hard enough time being south pause right.

449
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:50,800
Speaker 5: You have to kind of train everything both ways, and

450
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 5: that was the benefit of that. Even being a slow

451
00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,040
Speaker 5: learner was okay, I get to learn and I can

452
00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:57,600
Speaker 5: fight pretty ambidextriously. I'm a right handed south Paul more

453
00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 5: like a Chris Curtis right, not like a left hand.

454
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,520
Speaker 5: I'm a guy like a Jeff Neil, who we might

455
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 5: talk about. But now everybody switches, so it's like cod

456
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 5: dang it.

457
00:21:05,480 --> 00:21:05,960
Speaker 2: I had.

458
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:07,920
Speaker 3: That was like the one thing I had.

459
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 5: And you can still, you know, tax people when they

460
00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:11,600
Speaker 5: try to get cute and match with you as a southpaw.

461
00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 5: But yes, it's a lot harder these days, but there's

462
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 5: a lot more weapons that are accepted, which is cool.

463
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:16,960
Speaker 2: Yeah.

464
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,440
Speaker 4: MMA junkie analyst Dan Tom with us here for the

465
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 4: first time on the Anakin Florian podcast. I will get

466
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,359
Speaker 4: to Jeff Neil and I and Mischado Gary because you

467
00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 4: sort of teased it. But the fan appetite for this

468
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 4: Featherweight Championship fight is off the charts, and rightfully so,

469
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,560
Speaker 4: I've been thinking about my pay per view open. This

470
00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,719
Speaker 4: is one of the biggest, best singular fights that can

471
00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:39,040
Speaker 4: possibly put together. I do think the betting line kind

472
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 4: of backs that up Alexander Volkanovsky as slight favorite here

473
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:45,600
Speaker 4: against Ilia Topotia. So from your breakdown up to this point,

474
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,359
Speaker 4: I'm not necessarily asking for you to get too predictive,

475
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:51,080
Speaker 4: but how excited are you for this weekend and what

476
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,679
Speaker 4: are your expectations for the headliner or UFC two ninety eight.

477
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,600
Speaker 5: I'm exsanely excited and I had I've had essentially two

478
00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,240
Speaker 5: vibes going into this fight. The first vibe was Chris

479
00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 5: Widman Anderson Silva. Ie if that tells you anything, right,

480
00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:06,359
Speaker 5: and that tells you to the respect respect. I have

481
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,680
Speaker 5: many other analysts, and I know you guys yourself have

482
00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 5: for the skills of Taporia. However, is as I get

483
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:13,640
Speaker 5: closer into this, this feels like more like Max Holloway

484
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,359
Speaker 5: versus Brian Ortega UFC two thirty one, which, mind you,

485
00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 5: as one of my favorite. John Annitt calls very underrated,

486
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,879
Speaker 5: underrated light heavyweight fight between Thiago Santos Jimmy Madawa not

487
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 5: just capturing the action but the emotion. I know that

488
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:27,320
Speaker 5: sounds very basic, but John, you're you're a master at

489
00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 5: your art.

490
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:27,840
Speaker 2: Man.

491
00:22:28,040 --> 00:22:30,359
Speaker 5: People go back and watch John Annix call after Thiago

492
00:22:30,440 --> 00:22:33,680
Speaker 5: Sianus get to finish. It's it's beautiful. But Max Holloway

493
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 5: fought Ortega that night, and you know you had a

494
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 5: lot of doubts, you know at that time, featherweight goat,

495
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 5: you know, health coming in for different reasons than volk right,

496
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 5: and you saw the betting line reflect it as it

497
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,440
Speaker 5: does now. It's gotten much tighter. You know, Volkanovsky, I

498
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:50,040
Speaker 5: believe open at a much heavier favorite. However, I am

499
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 5: leaning toward the favorite side. I'll give you guys my

500
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:54,720
Speaker 5: kind of first look. Now you know, John, my analysis

501
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 5: doesn't come out till later in the week, So shout

502
00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:57,879
Speaker 5: out to Big Ron. By the way, if John ever

503
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,920
Speaker 5: gives you a crap, this point to me, Big Rob,

504
00:23:00,000 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 5: because not only do I also put my analysis out

505
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,159
Speaker 5: late in the week, I've been hitting like crap and

506
00:23:04,200 --> 00:23:06,480
Speaker 5: you're you're actually cash in, bro, So shouts to you.

507
00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,119
Speaker 5: But I'll give you guys, my early my early hit,

508
00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:10,879
Speaker 5: which maybe we'll tell you what to fade here. But

509
00:23:10,920 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 5: I'm actually liking Volkanovsky here, and I'm liking him because

510
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:16,920
Speaker 5: even though I believe he can compete, and we could

511
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:21,040
Speaker 5: talk technic tactics and technique all day between the jab

512
00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:23,480
Speaker 5: battle and the circling and footwork battle. That is just

513
00:23:23,520 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 5: going to be beautiful to watch and fall between these two.

514
00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:28,919
Speaker 5: But I have a hinkling, you know, that Volkanovsky may

515
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 5: lean back into his grappling. He initially came on the

516
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,000
Speaker 5: you know scene like a Macedonian kabeb Normaga madoff almost

517
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:37,879
Speaker 5: right and working with guys like Craig Jones, and we

518
00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,840
Speaker 5: saw the uh, you know developments that camp as well

519
00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 5: as Frank Hickman, and I know particular because I'm actually

520
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 5: going to Bang Tao next week, and I was kind

521
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 5: of bummed because I'm like, oh crap, Frank's gonna I

522
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 5: was gonna try to get a wrestling private.

523
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:49,359
Speaker 3: Frank's gonna be with Vulkan.

524
00:23:49,720 --> 00:23:52,359
Speaker 5: Of course, he's been there over at Freestyle helping him prepare,

525
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:55,320
Speaker 5: so he's got a real grappling, heavily heavy camp guys.

526
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:57,680
Speaker 5: And I would not be surprised to see that because

527
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 5: even though I wouldn't look too much into that gassing

528
00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 5: performance in that against, I believe it was the tall

529
00:24:04,680 --> 00:24:09,159
Speaker 5: gentleman from Factory X Yusuf Sillow because UFC debut in

530
00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:11,840
Speaker 5: that pandemic summer where you give fighters a break, he

531
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 5: had the flu and whatnot. However, grappling, despite coming from

532
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:18,399
Speaker 5: grappling bases, it still tires the wrestlers out as much

533
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:19,000
Speaker 5: as the strikers.

534
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 3: Folks.

535
00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 5: It's very tiring, especially over five rounds. I believe Jael

536
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 5: Sun was quoted that you can't wrestle for five rounds

537
00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 5: even with some help.

538
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:27,040
Speaker 3: It's tough.

539
00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,720
Speaker 5: So I feel like Volkanovski is much more proven in

540
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:34,040
Speaker 5: five rounds. In five rounds, grappling being at the wrong end.

541
00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 5: So I think that Volkanovsky could do a little bit

542
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 5: more of that, and I'll also be looking at him

543
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,760
Speaker 5: to see him do more kicks, because stylistically, a kicker

544
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 5: is going to give toa poria problems.

545
00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:44,320
Speaker 3: Just like Volkanovski.

546
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,320
Speaker 5: They've got those dipping propensities and he's south paused and

547
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:48,600
Speaker 5: he switched kickers.

548
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:50,520
Speaker 3: That dipping side. That's going to be money and something

549
00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 3: to watch out for.

550
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:53,800
Speaker 4: We asked a poll question for our podcast today at

551
00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 4: ant Florian Pod of the following main card underdogs, in

552
00:24:57,880 --> 00:24:59,960
Speaker 4: whom are you most confident to get the win? Henry

553
00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 4: Shudo versus Mirob Dwallis, Willie Polo Costa versus Robert Whitaker,

554
00:25:03,600 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 4: or Jeff Neil versus Ian Maschado Gary. And despite the

555
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,040
Speaker 4: fact that Jeff Neil has the biggest underdog price at

556
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:13,160
Speaker 4: plus two hundred or so, forty five percent of people

557
00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 4: like Jeff Neil this weekend now safe sud was one

558
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,000
Speaker 4: of my best friends in the sport, and certainly I've

559
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,000
Speaker 4: heard him say for years, you know, when his guy

560
00:25:21,160 --> 00:25:23,040
Speaker 4: is on on any given Saturday night, he's the best

561
00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 4: welterweight in the world. Since you brought up the name

562
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 4: Jeff Neil, I'm just curious how you handicap his chances

563
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,239
Speaker 4: against the undefeated Ian Maschado Gear.

564
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 5: That's a tough one, because John, even though it may

565
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,040
Speaker 5: be hard to make the argument you did the previous

566
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 5: segment of calling somebody who's hyped and undefeated is underrated,

567
00:25:38,240 --> 00:25:41,119
Speaker 5: I absolutely understand where you're coming from, and I reflect

568
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 5: that in my own analysis as well, being that you know,

569
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:45,679
Speaker 5: I don't care about the drama stuff outside.

570
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:46,320
Speaker 3: I leave that out.

571
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,000
Speaker 5: And Ian Gary is a good fighter, and particularly even

572
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 5: though we only had the one look prior to Daniel

573
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:54,040
Speaker 5: Rodriguez him against the South Paul that was against Gabe

574
00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,400
Speaker 5: Green he actually looked very comfortable in those open stance matchups,

575
00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 5: and you know I actually called for perhaps open stands

576
00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 5: head kick on Rodriguez, which he got, so that could

577
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:05,440
Speaker 5: actually be really palpable here. I don't know if he'd

578
00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 5: be able to finish a guy like Jeff Neil. Here's

579
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,480
Speaker 5: the trouble. It's because with Jet, whether it's guys that

580
00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:11,760
Speaker 5: are coached by Eric Nixon or safe say you'd coaches

581
00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 5: I greatly respect, is that I know the coach is

582
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 5: going to know exactly what to do. But not only

583
00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,160
Speaker 5: are fans not forgiving to the fighters, they certainly aren't

584
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,240
Speaker 5: forgiven to the coaching staff when things go awry.

585
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 3: And it's just hard to depend on Jeff Neil to

586
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 3: not headhunt and to not be.

587
00:26:25,600 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 5: Left side dominant, like I kind of teased, you know,

588
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 5: he doesn't use the right hand very much outside of

589
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,200
Speaker 5: the jab. He doesn't go to the body and legs,

590
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:34,520
Speaker 5: and that really has killed him in so many matchups.

591
00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:36,399
Speaker 5: And it's so hard as an analyst. I try not

592
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,520
Speaker 5: to pick too much of what we don't see because

593
00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 5: even like Duplessy and Strickland, I had a pow wow

594
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,359
Speaker 5: with Eric, as I do after we don't talk strategy before,

595
00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:46,800
Speaker 5: you know, but we could pare notes after and I said,

596
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,760
Speaker 5: I'm not afraid obviously to pick against our own guys. Eric,

597
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,200
Speaker 5: But the one edge that I said I had was

598
00:26:52,280 --> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 5: that not just Strickland had a guy who you know,

599
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,800
Speaker 5: preached consistent bodywork, one of the only things that even

600
00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 5: seems to affect Duplessy. But he also had consistent bodywork

601
00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 5: tool in both the jab and mainly the body teap

602
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:05,119
Speaker 5: and we saw him a bandon those in the fight. Right,

603
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 5: So even when it comes to a fighter's tool that

604
00:27:07,320 --> 00:27:09,520
Speaker 5: they do have, you still can't even depend them on

605
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,239
Speaker 5: them to really use it. Fights are crazy folks to predict, right,

606
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:14,720
Speaker 5: So that's really tough. I want to pick Jeff Neil

607
00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:16,639
Speaker 5: as an underdog. I can understand the money coming in

608
00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:18,920
Speaker 5: on him. I love any fighter with safe sayued in

609
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 5: this corner. Yeah, I'll probably going Ian Gary on that fight,

610
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:22,320
Speaker 5: all right.

611
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:25,040
Speaker 4: And before I let you go the Rob Dwallis, Willie

612
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:28,359
Speaker 4: Henry Suhudo Robert Whittaker versus Poolo cost I'll give you

613
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 4: a chance to sound off on either or both of

614
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,720
Speaker 4: those fights. A lot of people leaning into Robert Whittaker's

615
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:38,199
Speaker 4: comments about maybe not meeting the hunger of drinkis du

616
00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 4: plus c at UFC two ninety last July, and some

617
00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,720
Speaker 4: fans even suggesting that Robert Whittaker is now in the

618
00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,760
Speaker 4: twilight of his career. Anything for us on the comain

619
00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:48,679
Speaker 4: Evander m Robin Suhudo before we let you fly.

620
00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,639
Speaker 5: Robert Whitaker is one of my favorite fighters, and not

621
00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,680
Speaker 5: by on purpose. I don't think I've just ever picked

622
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,280
Speaker 5: against him since I've been doing this. I don't think

623
00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:57,879
Speaker 5: I'm going to pick against him again. That said, I

624
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,560
Speaker 5: don't know if I want to bet him in this spot.

625
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:01,840
Speaker 5: I agree with the line movement and who the favorite

626
00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,760
Speaker 5: is and Sahudo and Morob with money coming out Morob,

627
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,360
Speaker 5: but again, you know a price that I really don't want.

628
00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 5: And just to really quickly touch and answer your question,

629
00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:12,680
Speaker 5: I don't know if we're counting copylof as yeah.

630
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:13,880
Speaker 3: As the main card.

631
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:15,640
Speaker 5: But that's actually my dog that I like here, John,

632
00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:17,560
Speaker 5: because even though I'm a big fan of Fluffy Hernandez,

633
00:28:17,640 --> 00:28:20,920
Speaker 5: he's got that Mexican chin, durability, the kapebe grappling, the stamina.

634
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 5: Where's the weakness, right, I'll tell you where the weakness is.

635
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:24,720
Speaker 5: The guy gets hurt to the body. Kenny knows this.

636
00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 5: The guys with the tough chins go to the body.

637
00:28:26,560 --> 00:28:28,879
Speaker 5: Sometimes you'll find some success there. And we've seen that

638
00:28:29,240 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 5: Roman Copyloff has body work stop, which is all over.

639
00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:33,480
Speaker 5: This is going to be in the big cage, which

640
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:35,360
Speaker 5: is going to be a little bit better for the striker.

641
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 5: I'm probably going to be taking a shot on copyloft,

642
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:38,520
Speaker 5: even though I love Fluffy.

643
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:41,920
Speaker 4: No, I'm so glad you brought that fight into the

644
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,000
Speaker 4: conversation because Anthony Fluffy Hernandez was minus one eighty on

645
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,560
Speaker 4: DraftKings Sportsbook now Modus two oh five. So if you

646
00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 4: like that juicy price on Romankopolov, it's plus one seventy

647
00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:52,000
Speaker 4: right now.

648
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,600
Speaker 1: All right on X he is at Dan Tom MMA.

Speaker 1: Stats he's one hundred percent takedown the fence IN. UFC

792
00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:05,200
Speaker 1: i figure this guy was getting taken. Down but what

793
00:35:05,320 --> 00:35:07,880
Speaker 1: it is is when people get, close he sleeps. Him

794
00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:10,320
Speaker 1: you know he's got that right hand from. Death he

795
00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 1: doesn't need to take on. Offense you know he doesn't need.

796
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,160
Speaker 1: IT i think he's gonna have to show maybe some

797
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: of that in, here Because paysu is a fucking, giant

798
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,960

799
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 1: Shoulders he's got a good. Shin, yes he's coming off

800
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,160

803
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,480
Speaker 1: win and that's get the fight to the. Ground he's

804
00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 1: not very great off his, back but when he's on,

805
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:39,920
Speaker 1: top he's. Heavy he goes through the. Finish he does

806
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,160
Speaker 1: have a real naked choke three fights, ago so he

807
00:35:42,200 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 1: has some, submissions But i'm looking at him just pounding taugh.

808
00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:47,760
Speaker 1: Out tafa also has a little bit of cardio issue

809
00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,759

810
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,600
Speaker 1: you want to dive in on. That but once he

811
00:35:53,600 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 1: gets out of round, ONE i think he's gonna get

825
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:34,920
Speaker 2: Here it's the exact same. Thing it's exactly like What

826
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 2: piper needs to deal with YOUR. Vp, Right, yeah you know,

827
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:40,920
Speaker 2: this this is a tricky. One this is very. Interesting you,

828
00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,279
Speaker 2: KNOW i Think, delima if he's gonna get it, done

829
00:36:43,320 --> 00:36:45,560
Speaker 2: he's gonna get it done on the ground. Certainly you,

830
00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 2: know big guy can knock out. Anybody but if there's

831
00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,680
Speaker 2: a knockout that, HAPPENS i see it Being. Tafa this,

832
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:55,200
Speaker 2: guy if he touches you can put you, out especially

833
00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:59,879
Speaker 2: in boxing. Range he is, sneaky athletic with those, hands

834
00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,839
Speaker 2: with his, Striking he's very fast for a guy who

835
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:06,200
Speaker 2: doesn't look like he's, Fast, no he actually. Is And.

836
00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:11,319
Speaker 2: Delima you, know he's very, inconsistent so it's. Tough it's

837
00:37:11,360 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 2: tough to say what's going to. HAPPEN i think the

838
00:37:13,800 --> 00:37:16,200
Speaker 2: approach for this fight from a betting standpoint would, be,

839
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:19,399
Speaker 2: like you, know betting the. Under you, KNOW i think

840
00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:21,400
Speaker 2: there's going to be a finish. Here it's going to

841
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,120
Speaker 2: be a finish for, uh you, know PiZZ. Out if

842
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:25,680
Speaker 2: he gets the fight to the ground, over it's gonna

843
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,000
Speaker 2: be a finished book From tapa on the. Feet so

844
00:37:28,120 --> 00:37:30,279
Speaker 2: that's the WAY i would play this. One other than,

845
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,480
Speaker 2: that it's tough to choose necessarily who is going to.

846
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:35,840
Speaker 2: Win i'd be leaning towards maybe The, brazilian, uh just

847
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:39,520
Speaker 2: because of his, experience his level of. Competition. Uh but,

848
00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:41,160
Speaker 2: uh that's. It that's WHAT i got on.

849
00:37:41,239 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 1: That, Well, no and that's.

850
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:44,320
Speaker 4: Good that's the beauty of the new main event, challenge,

851
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,080
Speaker 4: right you don't have to make a. PREDICTION i like

852
00:37:46,160 --> 00:37:47,719
Speaker 4: that he gave us the under there one and a,

Speaker 4: if she can get the fight. There what are your

909
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,359

Speaker 4: on the? Number, yeah, man, Listen, well, WELL i have

911
00:40:31,640 --> 00:40:32,440
Speaker 4: a question for you.

912
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:36,080
Speaker 2: Guys so is she back training With perillo because my

913
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 2: understanding the last fight she was not With. Perillo is that?

914
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:39,120
Speaker 5: Right?

915
00:40:39,719 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 4: Okay SO i hang on a, second hang, on hang

916
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,200
Speaker 4: on a quick scent of, here BECAUSE i have the

917
00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 4: corner audio all added to my cards already. Here so

918
00:40:49,120 --> 00:40:53,560
Speaker 4: if you just give me a hot second Tier Mackenzie. Dern,

919
00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 4: Yeah So perilla was not in her corner last, time

920
00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:00,520
Speaker 4: and she has not listed her corner people on the

921
00:41:00,680 --> 00:41:03,360
Speaker 4: first iteration of that document SO i don't know that

922
00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:05,799
Speaker 4: she's still working With Jason. Barrillo i'm not sure sure

923
00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:07,960
Speaker 4: that that is the, Case. Kenny, okay so that's the

924
00:41:08,040 --> 00:41:10,239
Speaker 4: way that that's WHAT i had. Thought, Okay so a

925
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:10,560
Speaker 4: couple of.

926
00:41:10,600 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 2: Things brian is absolutely spot on if you are world

927
00:41:14,080 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 2: class in your domain of being on the ground and

928
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:20,279
Speaker 2: submitting pretty much anyone and everyone in that division having

929
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:24,560
Speaker 2: the capability of doing. So lemos included who who is

930
00:41:24,640 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 2: pretty crafty herself at. Times you gotta have, wrestling. Right

931
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:31,200
Speaker 2: we can't do a ground game IF i don't have

932
00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,440
Speaker 2: wrestling IN, Mma so that has been a huge hiccup for.

933
00:41:34,520 --> 00:41:37,800
Speaker 2: Her now what compounds that concern is the fact that

934
00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 2: she looked even worse on defeat last time. OUT i

935
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,759
Speaker 2: am also a Big Mackenzie dern fan for a variety of,

936
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,759
Speaker 2: reasons just Like brian. People but you, KNOW i THINK

937
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:52,080
Speaker 2: i think she is so, talented BUT i think she

938
00:41:52,280 --> 00:41:55,120
Speaker 2: does herself a disservice with some of the approaches to

939
00:41:55,200 --> 00:41:58,759
Speaker 2: the way that she. Trains and that is going to

940
00:41:58,800 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 2: be a concern Because, lemos you, know it's one thing

941
00:42:01,440 --> 00:42:04,000
Speaker 2: to be a good, striker it's quite another thing to

942
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,759
Speaker 2: be a good striker and a dangerous. One she can

943
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 2: knock out even other very good, strikers and unfortunately for,

944
00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 2: McKenzie she's not a great striker at this stage of the,

945
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:17,879
Speaker 2: game so that is a big time. Concern. Man when

946
00:42:18,160 --> 00:42:22,680
Speaker 2: she's throwing, shots she is throwing shots to absolutely hurt

947
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:26,320
Speaker 2: you and separate you from, consciousness As john likes to,

948
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:30,120
Speaker 2: say and that's what makes her so. Exciting and one

949
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,480
Speaker 2: thing's for, sure if you do stand up for With

950
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,319
Speaker 2: mackenzie for a certain amount of, time you are going

951
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:39,120
Speaker 2: to land. Shots so for, ME i Like lemos in this,

952
00:42:39,239 --> 00:42:42,440
Speaker 2: spot it pains me BECAUSE i love everything That mackenzie

00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 2: has done in this sport and outside of it In

954
00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:48,920
Speaker 2: brazilian jiu. Jitsu she's hard not to, like you, know

955
00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,839
Speaker 2: just a great, heart great. Person love her, Aggression she's

956
00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,960
Speaker 2: as tough as. Nails BUT i don't like this matchup for.

00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,799

Speaker 1: in a, row AND i got so much shit for

980
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:02,680

981
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:06,120
Speaker 1: fights in a row with some. Knockouts, HOWEVER i think he's,

982
00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 1: fantastic and he's a great. Striker his bodywork is. Fantastic

983
00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 1: he's powerful as ninety two percent takedown offense is. Great

984
00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:17,120
Speaker 1: But fluffy puts a pace on.

985
00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 2: You.

986
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,719
Speaker 1: Man you know the body shot That Dan tom brought

987
00:44:19,800 --> 00:44:22,920
Speaker 1: up earlier or definitely a concern of. Mine fluffy gets

988
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,880
Speaker 1: touch the body that's gonna be a. Problem but the

989
00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:27,440
Speaker 1: pace he puts on, you not just with his pressure

990
00:44:27,520 --> 00:44:29,680
Speaker 1: and his grappling with his hands as. Well the kick

991
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:32,440
Speaker 1: can throw some hands and when he gets on, top he's,

992
00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,279
Speaker 1: dangerous and then he'll let you up just to take

993
00:44:34,320 --> 00:44:36,919
Speaker 1: you down again because he knows he's going on. Three

994
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,560
Speaker 1: he knows he's not getting. TIRED i haven't seen that

995
00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,080
Speaker 1: With copyloft. Yet the four wins he has are very

996
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,200
Speaker 1: impressive because they're all by. Knockout he's doing what he's

997
00:44:44,200 --> 00:44:46,719
Speaker 1: supposed to, do but the strength to, schedule to, me

998
00:44:46,800 --> 00:44:49,640
Speaker 1: he's not quite there. YET i love him at the dog.

999

1028
00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:09,880
Speaker 2: when you're facing a guy Like, koppolov who is as

1029
00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:12,480
Speaker 2: dangerous as the other, feet he's got to be, careful

1030
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:16,440
Speaker 2: especially at. Range and As Dan tom you, know pointed,

1031
00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:17,879
Speaker 2: out and he's got to be careful of those body,

1032
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 2: shots no question about. That those are the shots that

1033
00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,239
Speaker 2: will kind of just take the literal life out of.

1034
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:25,880

1035
00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 2: q's on the. Feet, however he does know how to

1036
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,680
Speaker 2: enter into that grappling range extremely. Well he has one

1037
00:46:32,719 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 2: of the best guillotines That i've seen in a very long,

1091
00:49:09,080 --> 00:49:12,840
Speaker 1: BETTER i don't like That suhudo took time. Off he

1092
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:17,040
Speaker 1: looked a little out of. It slow timing was off Against.

1093
00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:19,080
Speaker 1: Aljoe now Al joe can do that to people Because

1094
00:49:19,080 --> 00:49:21,840
Speaker 1: aljo's the funk. Master he can mess you, up you,

1095
00:49:21,880 --> 00:49:24,920
Speaker 1: know and that could throw the whole game. OFF i

1096
00:49:25,080 --> 00:49:26,880
Speaker 1: like What henry did. THAT i saw the. Countdown he

1097
00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:28,880
Speaker 1: like told his, coach, Hey i'm not using you for this.

1098
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:31,799
Speaker 1: Fight he's got this whole thing worked. Out he's trying new.

1099
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:35,400
Speaker 1: Things but inactivity is a killer when you're fighting a

1100
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:39,239
Speaker 1: guy Like. Morob morob is going to march. Forward his

1101
00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,719
Speaker 1: hands are getting. Better cardio is clearly a. Weapon he's

1102
00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:45,080
Speaker 1: going to wrestle and even if he doesn't get a,

1103
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 1: takedown he's gonna keep you there and then he's gonna.

1104
00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,840
Speaker 1: Separate he's gonna landsam strikes and by the time you know,

1105
00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,200
Speaker 1: what three rounds are gone and you're losing the. DECISION

1106
00:49:52,600 --> 00:49:55,439
Speaker 1: i don't Think henry has one touch power to really Clip.

1107
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:57,600
Speaker 1: MOROB i think he has good boxing BUT i don't

1108
00:49:57,600 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 1: think it's this, huge worldly That morob hasn't seen. BEFORE

1109
00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:05,000
Speaker 1: i see pressure makes. DIAMONDS i See morob winning this.

1110
00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,799
Speaker 1: FIGHT i see it going off three. ROUNDS i Seen

1111
00:50:07,840 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: henry probably not winning a. ROUND i see it thirty

1112
00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:14,360
Speaker 1: two andy, seven clean sweep for May, rob AND i

1113
00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:16,640
Speaker 1: like to see him maybe call out the champion nex

1114
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:19,320
Speaker 1: since Al jo's committed to one forty five, right but

1115
00:50:19,440 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 1: open doors now for for him who he probably could

1116
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 1: add a title shot if he Wasn't Frau, joe AND

1117
00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,080
Speaker 1: i think we need it because the videos he's been,

1118
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:30,360
Speaker 1: posting he's absolutely. Hilarious he's got a good personality and you,

1119
00:50:30,440 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 1: KNOW i would love a. Finish you, know he's got

1120
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:33,920
Speaker 1: a couple. Decisions maybe the crowd's not going to get

1121
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,360
Speaker 1: behind him with his, style BUT i don't. THINK i

1122
00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: don't think. SO i think he's an action pack fighter

1123
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:39,320
Speaker 1: AND i like him to dominate in this.

1124
00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:42,279
Speaker 4: FIGHT i am curious how many of these women That

1125
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,120
Speaker 4: Morob Dwallish willy is posing with he is actually uh

1126
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 4: sleeping with but probably not going to get that answer

1127
00:50:47,480 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 4: in the fighter made and can Flow Dwallish, Willy Henry,

1128

1133
00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:07,120
Speaker 2: sometimes you don't love making. Picks sometimes you have to

1134
00:51:07,160 --> 00:51:11,640
Speaker 2: make these hard. Decisions and When i'm When i'm going

1135
00:51:11,760 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 2: through And i've seen everything That morob has, done it is.

1136
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:19,400
Speaker 2: Unbelievable the, streak the, pacing, uh you, know the, Output

1137
00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:24,000
Speaker 2: it's it's. Crazy but If i'm, calculating Like i'm looking

1138
00:51:24,000 --> 00:51:25,560
Speaker 2: at all the skills And i'm trying to find that

1139
00:51:25,719 --> 00:51:29,520
Speaker 2: fighter that matches up well Against marob Dualash, PHILLY i

1140
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 2: find a guy In Henry, suhudo AND i stop right

1141
00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,239
Speaker 2: there AND i, go this is the. GUY i, think

1142
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:36,760
Speaker 2: this is the guy that matches up very well Against.

1143
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,400
Speaker 2: Rob what does he want to? Do he wants to

1144
00:51:39,480 --> 00:51:41,320
Speaker 2: throw a lot of stuff from the. Outside then he

1145
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 2: wants to get on the inside and take you. Down

1146
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:47,400
Speaker 2: now let's talk about the. Takedown DO i believe that

1147
00:51:47,480 --> 00:51:50,120
Speaker 2: he's going to take someone down like A Henry, Suhudo,

1148
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,080
Speaker 2: NO i don't think. SO i think that Al jo's

1149
00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:59,120
Speaker 2: unique funk style is what Gave Henry shuto such a difficult.

1150
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:03,080
Speaker 2: TIME i think the size of Al Jamaine. Sterling he,

1151
00:52:03,239 --> 00:52:05,640
Speaker 2: TRULY i, mean he's probably more of a one forty

1152
00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 2: five or than he is a one thirty five Uh

1153
00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,759
Speaker 2: marob Duallash pheli or May rob Duallash phey is more

1154
00:52:10,800 --> 00:52:13,279
Speaker 2: of a one hundred and thirty five. Pounder so let's

1155
00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:16,239
Speaker 2: take away his. Size let's take away his wrestling BECAUSE

1156
00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:17,920
Speaker 2: i don't think it's at the level of Al Jamaine.

1157
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:20,239
Speaker 2: Sterling his takedout game, anyway, right let's talk about that

1158
00:52:20,280 --> 00:52:23,360
Speaker 2: because he he does some judo style, takedowns not just all. Wrestling,

1159
00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,880
Speaker 2: HOWEVER i think That henry who will be able to nullify.

1160
00:52:26,960 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 2: This where it starts to get interesting is with the

1161
00:52:30,560 --> 00:52:36,320
Speaker 2: output Ken Henry shudo match the output of A morob Dualash.

1162
00:52:36,360 --> 00:52:40,360
Speaker 2: PHEELLY i don't, know BUT i think he can AND

1163
00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:44,239
Speaker 2: i think he knows exactly what he's getting. INTO i

1164
00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:47,440
Speaker 2: think May rob is one of those guys that it

1165
00:52:47,520 --> 00:52:49,840
Speaker 2: doesn't mean you could stop, it but you know exactly

1166
00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 2: what to. Expect Uh AND i think coming off a

1167
00:52:53,200 --> 00:52:57,200
Speaker 2: loss against his teammate Al Jamaine, STERLING i Think Henry

1168
00:52:57,239 --> 00:52:59,560
Speaker 2: shudo is going to be extremely well prepared for. This

1169
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,799
Speaker 2: if it was a five, ROUNDER i WOULD i would

1170
00:53:02,840 --> 00:53:04,520
Speaker 2: be agreeing with, You, BRIAN i would, say, hey you know,

1171
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:07,640
Speaker 2: What i'm leaning towards May rob, here but for this three,

1172
00:53:07,800 --> 00:53:10,879
Speaker 2: Rounder i'm gonna be leaning Towards. SUHUDO i think it's

1173
00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:14,240
Speaker 2: gonna be extremely. Close BUT i see a lot of value.

1174
00:53:14,360 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 2: Here it's not a whole lot of guys with this

1175
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:22,240
Speaker 2: kind of matchup where you See suhudo as an underdog,

1176
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 2: Here SO i think there's some nice value here For.

1177
00:53:24,320 --> 00:53:28,160
Speaker 2: Suhudo i'm gonna go With henry. HERE i think it's

1178
00:53:28,200 --> 00:53:30,680
Speaker 2: gonna be. CLOSE i do Admit i'm taking a little

1179
00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:34,800
Speaker 2: bit of a risk, here BUT i Like sahudo in this.

1180
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:37,160
Speaker 2: SPOT i think people are sleeping On henry a little bit.

1181
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 4: Well AND i think your preparation or your prediction is

1182
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 4: largely rooted in the expectation That henry has prepared. Optimally

1183
00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:49,160
Speaker 4: one of the questions That i'm gonna ask him in

1184
00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 4: the fighter meeting is how would you compare your preparation

1185
00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,800
Speaker 4: for this fight compared to The Aljamain sterling camp and

1186
00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:58,000
Speaker 4: maybe to his last fight before he retired after Beating

1187
00:53:58,080 --> 00:54:01,279
Speaker 4: Domina CRUZ i do believe that If henry is all,

1188
00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:04,680
Speaker 4: in there is some value potentially on him plus one sixty.

1189
00:54:04,719 --> 00:54:06,759
Speaker 4: Four and for the, RECORD i did not intend to

1190
00:54:06,960 --> 00:54:09,080
Speaker 4: cause further. Confusion morob May rob both.

1191
00:54:09,120 --> 00:54:10,080
Speaker 1: Accepted all, right, yeah.

1212
00:55:06,040 --> 00:55:10,080

Speaker 1: Jeff neil trying to find his. Range they're gonna be

1236
00:56:12,120 --> 00:56:14,000

1244
00:56:34,000 --> 00:56:36,000

Speaker 2: Mean he'll get.

1247
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:41,200
Speaker 1: Slept but if he goes full, striking his Whole arsenal

1248
00:56:41,400 --> 00:56:44,000
Speaker 1: the Eight. LIMBS i Like Ian gary to win this fight,

1249
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:45,600
Speaker 1: Here i'm mean for you And.

1250
00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:47,920
Speaker 4: Gary all, right nicely, Done, brian and not unlike What

1251
00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:51,920
Speaker 4: Dan tom Said kenny about the drama and the noise

1252
00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:54,719
Speaker 4: and all of this Surrounding Ian. GARY i don't really

1253
00:56:54,800 --> 00:56:58,000
Speaker 4: even think about that. Stuff If i'm being totally honest with,

1254
00:56:58,080 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 4: you AND i think enough time has sort of a

1255
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:02,480
Speaker 4: lapsed here that maybe it won't be this huge thing

1256
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:03,440
Speaker 4: for him to deal with during.

1257
00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:04,560
Speaker 1: Fight we could be wrong on.

1258
00:57:04,640 --> 00:57:06,640
Speaker 4: THAT i find it a little bit disappointing that a

1259
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 4: fighter of his profile has to disable comments now on

1260
00:57:09,960 --> 00:57:12,359
Speaker 4: all of His instagram. Posts but what do you make

1261
00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,080
Speaker 4: of him in this spot? Here can flow against the

1262
00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:15,200
Speaker 4: Underdog Jeff, Neil.

1263
00:57:15,239 --> 00:57:17,840
Speaker 2: Well i'd appreciate If brian left a little food on the.

1264
00:57:17,920 --> 00:57:22,080
Speaker 2: Table that was a pretty damn good breakdown For pete's. Sake,

1265
00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:26,360
Speaker 2: wow that was, awesome, Man, hey, LISTEN i think that's

1266
00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:29,760
Speaker 2: all spot. ON i think the range and the variety

1267
00:57:29,880 --> 00:57:32,440
Speaker 2: of skills From Ian gary is going to pose a

1268
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:35,919
Speaker 2: lot of problems From Jeff, neil who sometimes gets caught

1269
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:39,760
Speaker 2: in these patterns and sometimes will kind of continually throw

1270
00:57:39,880 --> 00:57:43,800
Speaker 2: the same stuff hoping for a different. Result and, again

1271
00:57:43,920 --> 00:57:46,560
Speaker 2: someone Like Ian gary who knows how to adapt and

1272
00:57:47,080 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 2: kind of become this chameleon at. TIMES i think it's

1273
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,560
Speaker 2: going to be, tough especially if he gets his kicking

1274
00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:55,560
Speaker 2: game going Against Jeff. Neil and another spot on comment

1275
00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:58,360
Speaker 2: From Brian, petris this can't be a boxing. Match if

1276
00:57:58,400 --> 00:58:00,600
Speaker 2: this is a boxing, Match Jeff neil goes out there

1277
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 2: and knocks Out Ian. Gary if there's one guy who's

1278
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,960
Speaker 2: going to go out there and land that one shot and,

1279
00:58:07,160 --> 00:58:09,360
Speaker 2: win it's going to Be Jeff. Neil he's got one

1280
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 2: punch knockout. Power. Okay Ian gary is more maybe on

1281
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:16,640
Speaker 2: the level of A Sean, strickland where he can overwhelm

1282
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 2: you with his, pacing with his, speed with his. Volume

1283
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:24,760
Speaker 2: it's the accumulation of blows that will kill. You AND

1284
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,960
Speaker 2: i think that's Where Ian Michado gary is going to

1285
00:58:28,520 --> 00:58:31,200
Speaker 2: really shine in this. Fight he does have to have

1286
00:58:31,360 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 2: a very disciplined, approach though he can't get out of his.

1287
00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:37,320
Speaker 2: Element he's got to be. Smart and the saying goes

1288
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:40,680
Speaker 2: For Jeff, neil right Because Jeff neil's probably coming into

1289
00:58:40,720 --> 00:58:43,200
Speaker 2: this fight very. EMOTIONAL i think in some ways it

1290
00:58:43,360 --> 00:58:45,760
Speaker 2: helps him that this fight gets pushed back where now

1291
00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:48,200
Speaker 2: he can kind of reevaluate where he was at emotionally

1292
00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:50,480
Speaker 2: all that. Stuff SO i don't know if that same

1293
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:55,280
Speaker 2: kind of passion is there from both. Guys, necessarily that

1294
00:58:55,440 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 2: remains to be, Seen but, Yeah i'm leaning Towards Gary.

1295
00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:01,960
Speaker 2: Man he just seems to be the more technical, fighter younger,

1296
00:59:02,080 --> 00:59:06,160
Speaker 2: fighter faster, fighter longer. Fighter those advantages are tough to

1297
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:10,200
Speaker 2: overcome when you put it all. Together, yeah can't deny the.

1298
00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:11,880
Speaker 2: Length can't deny the.

1299
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:14,840
Speaker 4: Length you, Know cody wrote in the chat earlier when

1300
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:18,439
Speaker 4: we were talking About peatree's, height, like Because cody's tall,

1301
00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:20,200
Speaker 4: too And cody's like.

1302
00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:21,919
Speaker 1: Six,' two he'll probably tell me he's taller.

1303
00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:23,680
Speaker 4: Than that but, You know, cody says they say the

1304
00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:25,320
Speaker 4: same thing, to Me and, i'm like what the FUCK

1305
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:26,200
Speaker 4: do i give off short?

1306
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:27,160
Speaker 1: Guy energy, YOU know.

1307
00:59:29,920 --> 00:59:31,800
Speaker 4: I hope i don't give off short, guy Energy but

1308
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:36,080
Speaker 4: i'm finding. OUT increasingly i took my son to an

1309
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:39,280
Speaker 4: endochronologist because he's tiny and he seems like he might

1310
00:59:39,320 --> 00:59:42,840
Speaker 4: be a good candidate for that human. Growth hormone and

1311
00:59:43,640 --> 00:59:46,520
Speaker 4: the doctor's basically Telling me i'm like thirty percent in

1312
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:49,000
Speaker 4: terms of my height at five eight and. THREE quarters

1313
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:51,080
Speaker 4: I thought i thought it was closer to like the

1314
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:53,920
Speaker 4: average MAIL than. I am, you know we just try

1315
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:55,600
Speaker 4: to make up for it in. Other ways let's get

1316
00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:58,040
Speaker 4: to the co. Main EVENT robert wikermonus two twenty Five

1317
00:59:58,120 --> 00:59:59,080
Speaker 4: plo costa plus.

1318
00:59:59,160 --> 01:00:01,720
Speaker 2: One Ninety, So kenny i'll lead with. You here whitaker

1319
01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:02,480
Speaker 2: is suggestive.

1320
01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,240
Speaker 4: Of violence he'll try to rally back from the LOSS

1321
01:00:05,280 --> 01:00:08,600
Speaker 4: to ddp last SUMMER at ufc Two ninety costa hasn't

1322
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:11,400
Speaker 4: fought since a great performance and Win Over Luke rockol

1323
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:13,960
Speaker 4: THAT was ufc two, ninety one Also. Last july he

1324
01:00:14,120 --> 01:00:16,840
Speaker 4: was then booked to Face kamzat Chimayav in OCTOBER at

1325
01:00:16,920 --> 01:00:20,280
Speaker 4: ufc two. Ninety four nasty elbow infection forced him out of.

1326
01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:24,360
Speaker 4: That matchup, very interesting, comane event can flow and a

1327
01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,160
Speaker 4: pretty big price Next To paolo costa.

1328
01:00:26,920 --> 01:00:27,520
Speaker 2: If you do like.

1329
01:00:27,600 --> 01:00:29,600
Speaker 1: That side what are your thoughts on the? Comin event

1330
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:31,160
Speaker 1: this is.

1331
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,520
Speaker 2: A, fascinating ONE and i feel like THE more i think,

1332
01:00:33,560 --> 01:00:35,760
Speaker 2: about it the MORE confused. I get in a lot,

1333
01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:39,120
Speaker 2: OF ways i do think it's a Benefit That robert

1334
01:00:39,120 --> 01:00:43,960
Speaker 2: whitaker faltered in his, last fight that he underestimated this

1335
01:00:44,160 --> 01:00:47,760
Speaker 2: Guy From South africa Drikus, du PLASI and i also

1336
01:00:47,880 --> 01:00:51,280
Speaker 2: think he sees quite the opportunity here to get back

1337
01:00:51,360 --> 01:00:55,360
Speaker 2: into that title picture with the win Here Against. Paulo costa,

1338
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:01,080
Speaker 2: paulo though when he gets into, a group not only is,

1339
01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,640
Speaker 2: he powerful he can throw a lot of volume and

1340
01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:07,400
Speaker 2: if you allow him into, boxing range That's Where paulo

1341
01:01:07,520 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 2: costa can win. This fight he is crazy fast for.

1342
01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,240
Speaker 2: This division you see a guy who's built, Like that, you're, like,

1343
01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:16,720
Speaker 2: well okay well He's jack the guy looks Like. An

1344
01:01:16,760 --> 01:01:20,240
Speaker 2: adonis but is? He, fast, unfortunately, yes yeah he is also.

1345
01:01:20,360 --> 01:01:22,160
Speaker 2: Very fast well is? He tough is he one of

1346
01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:24,560
Speaker 2: those guys that just? Looks tough he looks, the part

1347
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:26,760
Speaker 2: but then when he gets in trouble he kind of. Gives, Up,

1348
01:01:26,840 --> 01:01:30,120
Speaker 2: no no he's actually very game. As WELL so I

1349
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:32,400
Speaker 2: think costa is going to try to get in the

1350
01:01:32,480 --> 01:01:34,760
Speaker 2: Face of. WHITTAKER early i think he's going to try

1351
01:01:34,800 --> 01:01:37,480
Speaker 2: to keep a Pace on whittaker that is going to

1352
01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:42,160
Speaker 2: confuse and. Frustrate, him, whitaker though is extremely fast for.

1353
01:01:42,240 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 2: THAT division i think he's got some great Skills where whittaker,

1354
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:49,760
Speaker 2: kind of, you know maybe is not at his strongest

1355
01:01:49,880 --> 01:01:52,200
Speaker 2: because he, is strong he's just not at his strongest

1356
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:56,320
Speaker 2: when it comes to the. Volume department he's not necessarily.

1357
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 2: The guy And maybe i'm this is without really looking,

1358
01:01:59,080 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 2: at stats So perhaps i'm wrong, on THIS but i,

1359
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 2: think that, you know if he doesn't throw a whole

1360
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:08,000
Speaker 2: lot of, volume here that's where he can get in

1361
01:02:08,080 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 2: trouble and maybe loot drop around here. And there he's

1362
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,080
Speaker 2: got to keep this one on the feet, at distance

1363
01:02:14,560 --> 01:02:16,880
Speaker 2: be the slick karate fighter that, he is and then

1364
01:02:16,960 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 2: look for some takedowns to score and. Win rounds if

1365
01:02:19,880 --> 01:02:23,440
Speaker 2: he sees an opportunity To, finish costa then he can go.

1366
01:02:23,600 --> 01:02:25,840
Speaker 2: For it but if he's just kind of looking for

1367
01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,280
Speaker 2: that knockout on, the feet he's got to be extremely

1368
01:02:29,400 --> 01:02:33,280
Speaker 2: Careful because costa is. Very dangerous he hits, very hard he's,

1369
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:36,360
Speaker 2: very FAST and i think in, some ways the fact

1370
01:02:36,400 --> 01:02:39,280
Speaker 2: that we haven't Seen cost in in a lot in

1371
01:02:39,360 --> 01:02:43,840
Speaker 2: a long time it can be confusing because a lot

1372
01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:46,960
Speaker 2: of guys can get very good when you don't, see

1373
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:48,760
Speaker 2: HIM and I think costa is one of those guys

1374
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:50,840
Speaker 2: that has been working in. The offseason he's had some

1375
01:02:50,960 --> 01:02:53,120
Speaker 2: injuries and things. Like THAT but i think he's really

1376
01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:56,120
Speaker 2: been looking for ways, to IMPROVE and i think this

1377
01:02:56,280 --> 01:02:58,520
Speaker 2: fight is a lot closer than. People realize WHO am

1378
01:02:58,560 --> 01:03:03,439
Speaker 2: i leaning towards of Leaning? Towards whitaker but, uh yeah

Speaker 1: i think a lot of fighters. Could USE and i

1455
01:06:40,640 --> 01:06:42,640
Speaker 1: think that is the one main point that is going

1456
01:06:42,760 --> 01:06:45,440
Speaker 1: to bring him to this fight and bring him a

1457
01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:47,600
Speaker 1: w in. THIS fight i like the way he. SWITCHES

1463
01:07:03,200 --> 01:07:05,400
Speaker 1: like when they, switch dances there's only, a handful and

1464
01:07:05,440 --> 01:07:06,960
Speaker 1: there's a lot of guys that are trying to, do

1465
01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:09,280
Speaker 1: IT and i think. IT'S awkward i think it's. Herky

1496
01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:27,360
Speaker 4: her a fucking. HARD question I think volkanovsky was just

1497
01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:29,120
Speaker 4: trying to lay out. The truth it's not like he

1498
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 4: did it right after, the fight. Right Right But Kenny

01:08:42,360 --> 01:08:45,040
Speaker 4: guy as a, future champion even if he doesn't get

1505
01:08:45,160 --> 01:08:48,280
Speaker 4: it done against the other World The Alexander volkanovski Ken

1506
01:08:48,360 --> 01:08:50,120

1507
01:08:50,160 --> 01:08:51,920

1508
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 4: on the.

1509
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:52,760
Speaker 1: Main event who do?

1510
01:08:52,760 --> 01:08:55,680
Speaker 2: You, have, Okay fine i've been looking forward to this

1511
01:08:55,880 --> 01:08:59,760
Speaker 2: fight for a very very. Long. Time guys this is

1512
01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:04,240
Speaker 2: such a great. TITLE fight i can't wait. For it

1513
01:09:04,320 --> 01:09:09,200
Speaker 2: it is absolutely fascinating. To me, you know there's so

1514
01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:12,320
Speaker 2: much to take, into Account as brian was, talking about

1515
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:14,800
Speaker 2: there's so many skills on both sides of the coin

1516
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:18,400
Speaker 2: here that it is a little bit difficult. To decide

1517
01:09:18,640 --> 01:09:21,920
Speaker 2: now when you Look, AT volkanowski i think what makes

1518
01:09:22,000 --> 01:09:26,120
Speaker 2: him great is. His intelligence it's his ability to analyze,

1519
01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:29,680
Speaker 2: a fighter and of course we need to include his

1520
01:09:29,800 --> 01:09:33,440
Speaker 2: team in, that process and it's his ability to execute

1521
01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:37,719
Speaker 2: when he. NEEDS to i think what set him back

1522
01:09:38,320 --> 01:09:41,639
Speaker 2: was the fact that he didn't really have the ability

1523
01:09:41,720 --> 01:09:44,880
Speaker 2: to really do that on a training level in that Fight.

1524
01:09:44,960 --> 01:09:48,559
Speaker 2: Against mahasha, we do of course need to talk about.

1525
01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:52,880
Speaker 2: That knockout what did that do? To him, FOR me

1526
01:09:53,160 --> 01:09:55,479
Speaker 2: i don't see it as so much of a concern

1527
01:09:56,479 --> 01:10:00,280
Speaker 2: from a, physical standpoint because this isn't a guy who's

1528
01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:03,559
Speaker 2: been knocked out, once, twice, three, four five six seven

1529
01:10:03,640 --> 01:10:06,000
Speaker 2: times already that that's been the only time that we've

1530
01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:10,000
Speaker 2: seen him. Knocked OUT and i don't see IT'S gonna

1531
01:10:10,000 --> 01:10:12,080
Speaker 2: i don't think it's gonna be a major, PROBLEM here.

1532
01:10:12,880 --> 01:10:15,599
Speaker 2: I think and from a, Confidence STANDPOINT do I expect

1533
01:10:15,680 --> 01:10:18,080
Speaker 2: volkanowski to be short on confidence heading into. This fight.

1534
01:10:18,240 --> 01:10:22,560
Speaker 2: Absolutely not the guy is. Good everywhere it seems like

1535
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:25,960
Speaker 2: he always has a perfect. Game. Plan uh and then

1536
01:10:26,040 --> 01:10:29,360
Speaker 2: he always knows how to not only, beat you but also. Finish.

1537
01:10:29,439 --> 01:10:33,000
Speaker 2: You uh and have you regret you know you saying

1538
01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:36,000
Speaker 2: what you said and even challenging him in the. First.

1539
01:10:36,040 --> 01:10:40,400
Speaker 2: Place uh from, you know everyone who's Worked, with volkanowski

1540
01:10:40,439 --> 01:10:44,040
Speaker 2: they say he's probably very underrated as a grappler and

1541
01:10:44,240 --> 01:10:46,200
Speaker 2: one of the strongest dudes that they ever. Trained With

1542
01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:52,280
Speaker 2: so volkanowski has all that Going for topouria has all

1543
01:10:52,400 --> 01:10:55,600
Speaker 2: of that, as well uh where what he doesn't have

1544
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,439
Speaker 2: is the same level. Of experience this is gonna be

1545
01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:01,760
Speaker 2: his first fight as a five rounder right IN, the

1546
01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,680
Speaker 2: ufc just like what we Saw with pifer and all.

1547
01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:08,240
Speaker 2: That stuff that can be a concern when you go

1548
01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,600
Speaker 2: into those championship rounds for the. First time it is

1549
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:15,679
Speaker 2: a whole new ball. Of wax but we Have seen

1550
01:11:15,760 --> 01:11:19,559
Speaker 2: torpouria in trouble. And fights we have seen him fight

1551
01:11:19,680 --> 01:11:23,479
Speaker 2: at one. Fifty five we've seen him all over the

1552
01:11:23,560 --> 01:11:26,400
Speaker 2: place and experience a lot of. Different things the variety

1553
01:11:26,560 --> 01:11:31,519
Speaker 2: of opponents that, he's, faced, grapplers, wrestlers strikers he's kind

1554
01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:34,720
Speaker 2: of seen it all and he's answered those questions extremely

1555
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 2: well with. Flying colors so this is an undefeated fighter

1556
01:11:39,439 --> 01:11:44,160
Speaker 2: that for me is the truest threat to the throne

1557
01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:49,600
Speaker 2: when it Comes. To volkanowski so and every time We,

1558
01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 2: see torpouria he always seems to bring in this new

1559
01:11:53,000 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 2: set of, skills, LIKE oh i didn't know he could.

1560
01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:56,600
Speaker 2: DO that i didn't know he could. DO this i

1561
01:11:56,680 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 2: didn't know he could. Do that the guy's. A problem

1562
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:02,000
Speaker 2: he really is a. Problem everywhere so if he does,

1563
01:12:02,479 --> 01:12:05,640
Speaker 2: encounter adversity which he certainly will against Someone. LIKE volkanovski

1564
01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 2: i see him responding to that adversity very. Very well But,

1565
01:12:13,560 --> 01:12:16,840
Speaker 2: for volkanovski, man again this is a guy that many

1566
01:12:17,360 --> 01:12:20,120
Speaker 2: thought was the best pound for pound fighter on. The

1567
01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:23,120
Speaker 2: planet he's certainly up there in the top two. Or

1568
01:12:23,240 --> 01:12:27,000
Speaker 2: three AND if i see this kind of value from a,

1569
01:12:27,080 --> 01:12:32,600
Speaker 2: BETTING perspective i gotta be Leaning towards. VOLKANOVSKI here i

1570
01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:35,560
Speaker 2: think he's GONNA be i think he's going to have

1571
01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:37,880
Speaker 2: a lot of gas in. THE tank i think he's

1572
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:42,760
Speaker 2: going to be, extremely motivated and not only to shut Up,

1573
01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:47,920
Speaker 2: iliat tolporia but to remind everybody of why people were

1574
01:12:48,000 --> 01:12:50,280
Speaker 2: calling him the best fighter on the planet pound. For

1575
01:12:50,400 --> 01:12:54,040
Speaker 2: pound so Leaning towards, VOLKANOVSKI here i think it's going

1576
01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:57,760
Speaker 2: to be a. Fantastic Fight if tolpuria is able to win,

1577
01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:00,920
Speaker 2: this one then, MY goodness i see him holding onto

1578
01:13:00,960 --> 01:13:03,439
Speaker 2: this belt for a. Long time the OTHER thing i want,

1579
01:13:03,479 --> 01:13:08,040
Speaker 2: to mention And And dan tom mentioned, this earlier was

1580
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:10,240
Speaker 2: the other concern for me is the fact that he

1581
01:13:10,439 --> 01:13:13,479
Speaker 2: does lean to a certain side, a lot either to

1582
01:13:14,400 --> 01:13:18,040
Speaker 2: bait you into kind of, countering you or he'll lean

1583
01:13:18,200 --> 01:13:20,640
Speaker 2: a little bit too far forward when he's looking for that,

1584
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:23,160
Speaker 2: body shot when he's looking for that liver shot which

1585
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:26,240
Speaker 2: he loves to throw his left hook downstairs and upstairs is.

1586
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:28,519
Speaker 2: A Problem so volkanowski has to be aware. Of that

1587
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:33,240
Speaker 2: but the way to solve that is you basically you

1588
01:13:33,600 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 2: take your kick and you just run it right. Through

1589
01:13:35,880 --> 01:13:37,880
Speaker 2: HIM and I think volkanovski is going to. See that

1590
01:13:37,960 --> 01:13:40,160
Speaker 2: he's going to look for that kick often to try

1591
01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:44,120
Speaker 2: to Knock. Out topouria and then the. Other, Thing yes

1592
01:13:44,280 --> 01:13:46,360
Speaker 2: topuria is going to be a little, bit taller something

1593
01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:49,240
Speaker 2: that he doesn't experience very often in, that Division but

1594
01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:53,040
Speaker 2: volkanovsky has that long, ass, reach man and you can't

1595
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:56,160
Speaker 2: forget about. That EITHER so I like volkanovsky in this,

1596
01:13:56,320 --> 01:13:59,720
Speaker 2: Spot slightly, but man is this going to be?

1597
01:13:59,760 --> 01:14:02,519
Speaker 4: A POINT and i do like that you had Acknowledge the.

1598
01:14:02,600 --> 01:14:05,200
Speaker 4: Toporia improvements i've said repeatedly in the build up to.

1599
01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:07,479
Speaker 4: This fight he's working in silence and nobody sees what.

1600
01:14:07,600 --> 01:14:09,760
Speaker 4: He's doing that's probably. By design and it is his

1601
01:14:09,880 --> 01:14:12,080
Speaker 4: second five round fight IN. The ufc he went Five

1602
