A 98 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,840 Speaker 2: bit of an unfortunate breaking news right off the top 99 00:04:53,880 --> 00:04:58,039 Speaker 2: of the telecast by way of Nigeria, we're a former 100 00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 2: two time heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua was involved in an 101 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: autobibial accident involving two cars five humans, in which two perished, 102 00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 2: with Joshua exiting with what is being deemed as minor injuries. 103 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: But the pictures and the videos are somewhat alarming. If 104 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 2: we can throw to that here, as it's getting picked 105 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,800 Speaker 2: up all around the nation, all around the country, excuse me, 106 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 2: in the world. Here's video of the accident scene. It 107 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 2: took a long time for the authorities and the medical 108 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:31,119 Speaker 2: response to get their crowds piled around a shirtless aj 109 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: as he was removed from the vehicle. As we mentioned, 110 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,160 Speaker 2: two people died in the accident. A very sad breakdown 111 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 2: of events, Luke Thomas, I don't know how you would 112 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: react to this, but wow, wow, I'm not. 113 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:47,280 Speaker 1: Sure what to say. 114 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:49,320 Speaker 4: I don't know if there's a big takeaway other than 115 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 4: thank goodness. Well, I mean, I realized that two people perish, 116 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 4: but to the extent that anyone lived in this accident, 117 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:59,680 Speaker 4: that is obviously good. I certainly hope that Aj is okay. 118 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:04,320 Speaker 4: Obviously condolences to the victims and their families. I would 119 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:09,719 Speaker 4: just say, BC, you know, man, you know, maybe he'll 120 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 4: be fine, that maybe this is no big deal. 121 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: We're just kind of reacting in the moment. 122 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 4: But like last week, he was kind of on top 123 00:06:15,080 --> 00:06:17,359 Speaker 4: of the world and then here this week, you know, 124 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 4: what appears to be what appears to be a near 125 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 4: death experience. Life can be quite fragile and quite short. 126 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:25,560 Speaker 4: So let's just hope for the best. 127 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, well said. Shout out to Anthony, Joshua and everybody 128 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,280 Speaker 2: affected by that accident. Not great news to wake up 129 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 2: to on this Monday morning. We also, over the weekend 130 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:37,560 Speaker 2: had the final major Combat Sports card event. Unless I'm 131 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 2: missing any of New Year's Eve bowls. 132 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, rising starts I think tomorrow. 133 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,279 Speaker 2: Night, all right. Shout out to Riizen just the same here, 134 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 2: but it was boxing on Saturday as the ring I 135 00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,760 Speaker 2: believe it was. Ring five was the name of the event. 136 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,720 Speaker 2: It went down in Saudi Arabia and it was headlined 137 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:55,960 Speaker 2: by a pair of Japanese superstars who were on a 138 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: collision course to face one another this spring. Of course, 139 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: in the main event, your pound for pound king, or 140 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 2: at least he's right around number one. With Terrence Crawford's retirement, 141 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: he may have retaken it. Niowa and Newe defended his 142 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 2: undisputed one hundred and twenty two pound championship by outpointing 143 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 2: unbeaten Mexican David Picasso over twelve rounds. A new Way 144 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 2: was disappointed in himself that he didn't get the KO. 145 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 2: But look, I gotta give Picasso credit. I've called his 146 00:07:21,520 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: fights in the past. He doesn't have a big power. 147 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:27,480 Speaker 2: I didn't consider him on the elite world level. Yet 148 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 2: he showed great defense, great heart, He hung in there. 149 00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:34,239 Speaker 2: Now he did get largely blanked and outclassed, but everybody 150 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:36,360 Speaker 2: expected a new Way to walk right through him. There 151 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: was a little bit of a handwrap gate before the fight, 152 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: But what could you say about the performance ultimately that 153 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,559 Speaker 2: we saw from the monster as he becomes the first 154 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 2: fighter since former heavyweight champion Larry Holmes to defend the 155 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,320 Speaker 2: ring championship four times in a single year. 156 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:52,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a good question. 157 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 4: I mean I thought about this one too ina anticipation 158 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 4: of today's SHOWBC. If people want to go back and 159 00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:58,360 Speaker 4: see the fight. By the way, I hate to say this, 160 00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 4: BC and I were talking about this earlier today and 161 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 4: prep for the show. Just nobody in attendance, right, BC, 162 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 4: Like there was It was not you know, this is 163 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 4: not the typical crowd that either Canelo or in this 164 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 4: case in a way is accustomed to competing in front of. 165 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 4: But putting that aside for just a moment, here's my 166 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 4: thought on this PC. On the one hand, this was 167 00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: more of a flawless performance, even relative to Luis Neery BC, 168 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,400 Speaker 4: who dropped him right. But what kind of made in 169 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,120 Speaker 4: a way famous was that not just that he came 170 00:08:28,160 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 4: back in that fight, but that he's got dominant power. 171 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 4: He's a KO threat basically at all times. And so 172 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,199 Speaker 4: what people really remember is not so much that anyway 173 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 4: got knocked down, but that he feasted upon NEARI in 174 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 4: the end. You didn't get that this time BC. But 175 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 4: if you're looking round over round, how many visible mistakes 176 00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 4: did in a way make again, even relative to the 177 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 4: Neery fight, You're like, this one was a lot cleaner. 178 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 4: This was a cleaner performance against You can tell the 179 00:08:54,679 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 4: audience how good Picasso actually is. He seemed rule certainly 180 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:04,960 Speaker 4: and game inasmuch as he could be, but thoroughly outclassed. 181 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 4: I mean, there's really no question about it in the end. 182 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 4: So I have mixed feelings about the performance b see. 183 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 4: On the one hand, I'm happy, you know, any mistake 184 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 4: can be costly good thing. Pacasta's not a dominant puncher 185 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 4: like you know near he is. But at the same time, 186 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 4: was that trademark almost Mike tyson esque expectation of in 187 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 4: a way fulfilled No, And I think that left some 188 00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: people flat to say nothing of the hand wrapping controversy, 189 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,080 Speaker 4: although Stitch Duran said that the raps are clean, he 190 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,199 Speaker 4: actually I did see that. 191 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 2: So basically it was the he got accused of stacking 192 00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: his hand wraps, which, under whatever Commission jurisdiction they were 193 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 2: using in Saudi Arabia, it was illegal compared to what 194 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,880 Speaker 2: he's used to in Japan. As Stitch Duran basically said 195 00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: it was much to do about nothing. It was just 196 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 2: positioning it on the knuckles as opposed to off. I 197 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:52,680 Speaker 2: don't know a ton about hand wrapping, but look in 198 00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 2: a ways in his fourth division as champion, so we know, 199 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 2: like the Great Chocolatito when he finally hit his limit 200 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 2: there at one fifteen, that it's not going to be 201 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 2: a straight knockout fest. This is kind of where his 202 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 2: power levels off. But you got to give Picasso a 203 00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:08,280 Speaker 2: lot of credit. And you may be confused by the name. 204 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 2: Picasso's not his real last name, it's a nickname he's 205 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 2: adopted as his surname. He goes by David Allen Picasso, 206 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:18,760 Speaker 2: sometimes just David Picasso, sometimes just Allen. Either way. Not 207 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,760 Speaker 2: a big puncher, a somewhat classy boxer. But I actually 208 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 2: thought this was the best performance of his career. He 209 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,839 Speaker 2: was confident, he was sharp, he wasn't winning a lot 210 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,880 Speaker 2: of rounds, but his ability to take what Inue had 211 00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 2: to offer and go the distance what's certainly impressive. This 212 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 2: pretty much we have awards today, they're very MMA centric, 213 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 2: but Luke, this pretty much secures I think for back 214 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 2: to back years Niowa in a way as your boxing 215 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,559 Speaker 2: fighter of the year. I mean these were four title defenses, 216 00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 2: not all four at the highest level. He had to 217 00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 2: get through some mandatories, but he finally took on Murr 218 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 2: John Akmadaliev and absolutely outclassed him. And I think what 219 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: we're seeing at age thirty two now from Inue is 220 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,679 Speaker 2: he's leaning more on his speed and boxing ability, still 221 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,719 Speaker 2: using it to set up the power, but in the 222 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: smaller way classes he's just walking you down with that power. 223 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 2: We're seeing him have to box and be slick. He's 224 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: still probably the best fighter in the world. I mean, 225 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 2: Usik isn't all that active at the moment. Crawford just retired. 226 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: I think in Newe is the best fighter in the world. 227 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 2: Back to back, he's the best fighter of the year. 228 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 2: This was a strong performance. Now, what this sets up 229 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 2: is that long awaited all Japanese showdown. I believe it's 230 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 2: set up for May in Japan against former bandamweight title holder, 231 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: unified title holder Junto Nakatani. But here's the key part 232 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 2: from Saturday, Luke Nakatani came in there as a pretty 233 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 2: big favorite against the opponent's day what was it. 234 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: Fernandez Hernandez Hernandez. 235 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:44,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, I didn't want to mess that up in real time, 236 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 2: and this turned out to be not only a true 237 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 2: Fight of the Year contender, but an absolute high paced 238 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 2: war in which Nakatani took a very difficult test for 239 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 2: his first fight at one twenty two and nearly seemed 240 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 2: like he was on the verge of losing the Caltito fight. 241 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:03,319 Speaker 2: In the end. Two judges had at one fifteen, one 242 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,080 Speaker 2: thirteen in favor of Nakatani, which I thought was the 243 00:12:06,080 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 2: correct score. One judge had a one eighteen one ten 244 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 2: and some Adelaide bird type scorecard that made no sense. 245 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: But how impressed were you at the opponent here coming 246 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,400 Speaker 2: in from Mexico, not a big name. In fact, I 247 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 2: missed it in real time forgetting it here, and he 248 00:12:22,000 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 2: came out and nearly upset one of the top ten 249 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:24,920 Speaker 2: best fighters in the world. 250 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, this one. 251 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:27,400 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm just not going to sit here and 252 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 4: pretend I knew who this guy was before the fight. 253 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 4: I didn't have any great idea I knew about Nakatani. 254 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,080 Speaker 4: We've talked about him on the show previously, and of course, 255 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,360 Speaker 4: as you indicated, the All Japanese showdown as the one 256 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 4: that's kind of been wished for, forecasted, you know, you 257 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 4: name it kind of discussed out there and now being 258 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 4: planned to an extent. So I just thought this he 259 00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,080 Speaker 4: was going to walk over him. To be honest with you, 260 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,319 Speaker 4: I didn't think much of it, and then it wasn't 261 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 4: that way at all. And dude, honestly, here's my view. 262 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:57,439 Speaker 4: You tell me if you agree seven to five Knakatani, 263 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 4: I'm okay with I think it's. 264 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: Okay, But I don't know if that's the best scorecard. 265 00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: I really don't know that. I don't know if that's 266 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: the best one you can argue, dude, Hernandez. 267 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 2: Sorry me, now, I'll hear it that way. It's Sebastian Hernandez, 268 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,720 Speaker 2: twenty five years old, fights out of San Diego for Mexico. 269 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 1: Go ahead, yeah, just very quickly. 270 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 4: You it's not you can give that fight to Hernandez 271 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 4: like that was a fight that. 272 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:22,200 Speaker 1: You can argue. 273 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 4: I think he won at a bare minimum, and a 274 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,920 Speaker 4: draw seems maybe the more equitable solution to this. Now, 275 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 4: Katani had to battle back in parts. I thought some 276 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 4: of his body punching in parts was pretty good. You know, 277 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 4: he had to bite down on the mouthpiece, but dude, 278 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 4: Hernandez was all over him for long stretches of that fight. 279 00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 4: I hope, at a bare minimum he gets another big 280 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 4: fight off of this, because he came to win that day. 281 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:46,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, he will definitely get a big fight off of this. 282 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 2: Twenty and oh. Coming into this fight hadn't been a 283 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:52,480 Speaker 2: ton of major names, but was considered on paper a 284 00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,760 Speaker 2: tough challenge. In fact, they said on the broadcast that 285 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 2: some members of Nakatani's team were hesitant about making his 286 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,640 Speaker 2: debut in this division against such a tough opponent. And 287 00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:04,480 Speaker 2: oh my god, was his guest tank on point. He 288 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 2: was in Knakatani's chest for all twelve rounds, pushing the 289 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 2: pace and his chin, I mean, Nakatani's known as a 290 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 2: big time puncher, his chin of Hernandez was right there. 291 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,920 Speaker 2: Mike Coppinger scored at one fourteen, one to fourteen on 292 00:14:17,960 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 2: the broadcast. So in some ways it slows down the 293 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: rising momentum of Nakatani. It doesn't take away from the 294 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 2: need to make the a new way fight, but it 295 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:30,320 Speaker 2: certainly asked some questions about whether this was just an 296 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 2: over the top best performance ever from Hernandez or whether 297 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 2: Nakatani at one twenty two has found, ultimately some limitations 298 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:42,720 Speaker 2: by the way we can be critical of announcers at times. 299 00:14:42,800 --> 00:14:45,480 Speaker 2: I thought the trio of Cory Erdman, Darren Barker and 300 00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:49,479 Speaker 2: Mike Coppinger on Saturday was very good, very good, good chemistry, 301 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 2: played off each other well. Darren Barker an excellent analyst, 302 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 2: a classy fighter in his own right. So shout out 303 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 2: to Ring for having a strong team there. 304 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 4: You've worked with Corey Erdman in the past. You did 305 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 4: the U the Dublin Show with him, Yes, Kalam Mall 306 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 4: show Yep, dude, he's a he's He's excellent at what 307 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 4: he does. He's one of the better. 308 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:08,200 Speaker 1: I think. 309 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,320 Speaker 4: I was a great play about play guy and commentary. 310 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 4: But what I mean is like he I don't ever 311 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:15,520 Speaker 4: question whether he's done his homework right. 312 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 1: He seems to me. 313 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: He's a super fan, just a historical super fan. And 314 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 2: I thought Cop had his best show ever. So shout 315 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 2: out to that trio right there. It went down Saturday 316 00:15:24,320 --> 00:15:26,960 Speaker 2: in Saudi Arabia. We do have the big fight now 317 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 2: for May. Turkey says he's gonna be there. I don't 318 00:15:29,360 --> 00:15:32,280 Speaker 2: think it's a uh Dizone read season card. I think 319 00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 2: it's uh, you know, japan Baseball. We'll see if it 320 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,800 Speaker 2: gets picked up on American TV in some form. 321 00:15:36,880 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: Dude, if they put that fight anywhere but Japan, that's 322 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: a crime. 323 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I want the Tokyo Dumb. I don't know 324 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,000 Speaker 2: what arena they pick, but it's got to be the 325 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 2: Tokyo Dumb. This is the biggest fight, it seems, in 326 00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 2: that country's history. 327 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 4: Right, what's the last time there was a big Japanese fight, 328 00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 4: Japanese versus Japanese guy? 329 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: You can recall in boxing, can't recall, can't recall, and 330 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 2: these two are now ever, I can't recall. I mean, look, 331 00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 2: I've watched the lower waight classes. There's always Japanese star 332 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 2: and those I can't off the top of my head 333 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:06,000 Speaker 2: name where you had two unbeaten, decorated champions, both in 334 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 2: the top ten pound for pound, which both are at 335 00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 2: least in my top ten for CBS Sports facing one another. 336 00:16:11,880 --> 00:16:13,520 Speaker 2: On paper, this is gonna be one of the toughest 337 00:16:13,560 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 2: fights of in Away's entire career. So this is this 338 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: is big stuff, real big stuff. 339 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: So happy can wait? 340 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: All right? The weekend is behind us, it's hot as 341 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,320 Speaker 2: balls in this office. Let me turn down the heat. 342 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 2: Let's get into it. We're gonna look back at what 343 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 2: we got right and wrong, and our predictions for MMA 344 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 2: for twenty twenty five and look ahead, of course, on 345 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 2: how we see the future in our crystal ball. We're 346 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 2: going to go division by division and we start at 347 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five pounds in the UFC Men's flyweight. 348 00:16:43,600 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 2: Our predictions last year on who would end twenty twenty 349 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 2: five as champion go like this. Luke Thomas predicted Alexandre Pantosia. 350 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 2: Long Island looked at the same BC picked that Kai 351 00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 2: car France would become the song point also bad. But 352 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,920 Speaker 2: as we look ahead for twenty twenty six, lt who's 353 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,120 Speaker 2: going to close next year as champion at Flyway? 354 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: You have to forgive me. 355 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 4: I had to close out the link because my computer 356 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 4: was stuttering for a second. 357 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,240 Speaker 1: Can you just circle right back to me? 358 00:17:16,480 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, Long, Look, let's go to you off the top here. 359 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 2: Who's going to close this coming year as champion at Flyway? 360 00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:24,879 Speaker 5: I got als Andre Pantosia reclaiming the title, and I 361 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 5: don't think it happens early on in the year. I 362 00:17:27,080 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 5: think it probably happens in quarter four, you know, maybe 363 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 5: November December. My camera's acting up, man, my computers being 364 00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,199 Speaker 5: shitty right now. I see it on the front end, 365 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:36,119 Speaker 5: my cameras off. 366 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, this show of text. 367 00:17:38,160 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, but it's happening to me now. Normally 368 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,439 Speaker 6: it happens other. 369 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 4: But listen, listen, this is my bane moment. Yeah, you 370 00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 4: merely adopted the darkness I was born in. 371 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 2: Your machine can only take so much weed, smoke blown out. 372 00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:52,159 Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess that's what it is. I don't know, 373 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,440 Speaker 5: but uh, Pantosia. I think he reclaims the title late. 374 00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 5: I think the title probably changes hands a few times. 375 00:17:57,000 --> 00:17:58,680 Speaker 5: It's a weird year for that division. 376 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 2: That feels like a reach, given his age, the severity 377 00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,080 Speaker 2: of his injury, and the fact that the rest of 378 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: the division is caught up. But I like it. I 379 00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:08,040 Speaker 2: like it all right. I'm gonna go with thirty five 380 00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 2: year old Kiyoji Horrigucci. He's here to win, and you'll 381 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:14,360 Speaker 2: look back at his recent run across rising, you know, 382 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,520 Speaker 2: after his exit following the loss to Demetrius Johnson when 383 00:18:17,520 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 2: he fought for the UFC flyweight title back in the 384 00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 2: day a decade ago he has been when in this 385 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:25,280 Speaker 2: division lights out the best in the world. I think 386 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 2: the floor is open for him experience wise, complete, well 387 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,760 Speaker 2: rounded game wise. I think Hora Gucci exits this year 388 00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:33,200 Speaker 2: as champion LT Where are you going? 389 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go Josh Van and it kind of I 390 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 4: don't know how to give this without sort of giving 391 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 4: away my prediction for the year as well for the 392 00:18:40,760 --> 00:18:43,640 Speaker 4: Flyway men's flyweight division, which is quite simply We've talked 393 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 4: about it before, like can you lose in a year 394 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,359 Speaker 4: and be Fighter of the Year, And there's certainly a 395 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 4: debate on that. It's the times that's happened in the 396 00:18:50,320 --> 00:18:53,639 Speaker 4: past before twenty twenty five was like Robbie Lawler losing 397 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:56,040 Speaker 4: early to Johnny Hendricks and then having an amazing year, 398 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 4: storming back and then winning both the title and then 399 00:18:58,359 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 4: beating Hendricks in the end. I think you're gonna get 400 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:01,879 Speaker 4: something similar to Josh Van. 401 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:02,120 Speaker 1: Dude. 402 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,280 Speaker 4: I don't think he's gonna press the brakes here really 403 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:06,040 Speaker 4: at all. In fact, you know, I think he's gonna 404 00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 4: try and keep going in this way and listen, his 405 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,080 Speaker 4: style is a little reckless. He's gonna lose sometimes. I 406 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:12,920 Speaker 4: think as a consequence, but I think his talent is 407 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 4: gonna shine through in the end, so there might be 408 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:17,639 Speaker 4: another champion be seeing twenty twenty five, But I think 409 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 4: Van's gonna circle right back to it, maybe pick it 410 00:19:19,560 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 4: up before the year is out. 411 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 2: Interesting prediction right there. By the way, ESPN dot Com 412 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 2: just named Marob DeVos Vili their Fighter of the Year 413 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 2: despite having that loss in the four fights that he 414 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 2: appeared in. 415 00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:30,399 Speaker 3: UH. 416 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:33,400 Speaker 2: In terms of breakthrough fighter of the Year, I'm going 417 00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 2: with a mirale Bosi in this division Long Island. Look, 418 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,399 Speaker 2: going with Kayasakura. Luke you wrote down Shavcott rochmanoff. 419 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:42,400 Speaker 1: What what did I wrong? One? 420 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:47,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's wait, yeah, maybe he's fasting to get 421 00:19:47,600 --> 00:19:48,160 Speaker 2: there to come. 422 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 1: Oh all right, what the hell is in the wrong section. 423 00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:56,200 Speaker 2: But in terms of my prediction for the division this year, 424 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 2: I actually think Menel Cops going to defeat Josh Van 425 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 2: in the first title fight in Division of twenty twenty six. 426 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,320 Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be Cop who loses it to 427 00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 2: Horror Gucci. Remember they fought back in twenty seventeen in 428 00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 2: Riseing Horgucci submitted Cop. I think he gets it done again. 429 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,399 Speaker 2: That's my bold prediction. For the year LT or you 430 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:15,360 Speaker 2: you shared yours Long Island. Look what do you got 431 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 2: for bold prediction for this division? 432 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 5: I think a Brandon will fight for a title, whether 433 00:20:20,160 --> 00:20:22,359 Speaker 5: it's Roy Vall, whether it's Moreno, one of them is 434 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,520 Speaker 5: going to bounce back. And the champion at the time 435 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 5: isn't gonna be Pantosia because he's coming back from that injury. 436 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 6: So whoever it is they. 437 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:31,639 Speaker 2: May be, you're going all old guys, all old guys across. 438 00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,639 Speaker 2: No going for some random here, Yeah, like Jordan Hudson 439 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 2: right there, you're just loving that old dick.

Uh LT picked 454 00:21:12,320 --> 00:21:16,920 Speaker 2: that Umar would become champion Long Island. Luke said, Morob 455 00:21:16,960 --> 00:21:20,439 Speaker 2: will remain champ.

So what are 508 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,440 Speaker 2: you expecting here, like a two and oh year to 509 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:31,119 Speaker 2: put himself in true title contention. 510 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, you know, he's in a way you 511 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 4: could maybe argue he all kind of already broke through 512 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:38,720 Speaker 4: a little bit, because he certainly got the bad taste 513 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 4: out of everyone's mouth on the Barcelos fight, and then, 514 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,880 Speaker 4: you know best one of his career styled on Harrison Hudo. 515 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,360 Speaker 4: I mean, it just it was a great night for him. 516 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 4: So in some ways that was a bit of a 517 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 4: breakout performance. But I think he's gonna build on that. 518 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 4: I mean, the thing that I think everyone saw this year, 519 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 4: it's pretty fair to say started out a little bit 520 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,520 Speaker 4: Rocky with that Barcelos fight looked much better against Lima 521 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 4: and then really just put it on Henry Shudo and 522 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,879 Speaker 4: gonna say so whose old and blah blah blah. This 523 00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 4: is how the fight game works. You get some of 524 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 4: these old guy names and then eventually you have to 525 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,120 Speaker 4: turn that into names against other guys where you cannot 526 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 4: make those same considerations about right, whether you know it's 527 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 4: contemporary is in a sense, and that is obviously where 528 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 4: the rubber meets the road BC. But I honestly, the guy, 529 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,479 Speaker 4: the level that the speed at which he's getting better, 530 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 4: I think is what everybody has noticed. You're like, okay, 531 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 4: if you're getting better, like you're you're filling in these 532 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:27,800 Speaker 4: these areas of need very quickly. What does that mean? 533 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 4: As you're still in your twenties and like, you know, 534 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 4: peak performance heres in twenty twenty six. It pourtends good 535 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 4: things to me, it seems. 536 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:37,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, Luke predicting he's going deeper into that ocean. We'll 537 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,479 Speaker 2: see if it happens right here, Luke, let's stay with you. 538 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 2: What's your bold prediction for bantam weight for the new year? 539 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:45,320 Speaker 4: All right, bold prediction for bantamweight for the year I 540 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 4: don't know. Let me pull up my goddamn notes. Hold, 541 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:47,439 Speaker 4: I got it here. 542 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,119 Speaker 1: One second was I don't know what God has to 543 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: do against this. 544 00:24:49,800 --> 00:24:55,359 Speaker 4: I mean, even though BC even let me tell you 545 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:59,359 Speaker 4: why I'm saying this, it's only because MMA is cruel 546 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 4: and un predictable and strange, which is part of the 547 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:03,440 Speaker 4: reason why we like it, but also part of the 548 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,639 Speaker 4: reason why it breaks our hearts, namely Pyotr. Jan just 549 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:10,639 Speaker 4: had the performance of a lifetime against Morob even marab 550 00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 4: ballwasher Long Island. 551 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: Luke would certainly agree to that just unnecessary shots. 552 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 4: But in all seriousness, in all seriousness, it was incredible, 553 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 4: and he not only leveled up as a you know, 554 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:30,560 Speaker 4: a rematch fighter, revenge fight, but just overall in his career. 555 00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 4: But like, I've just seen MMA go so many different 556 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,720 Speaker 4: ways where you'll see a guy like this and it's 557 00:25:35,840 --> 00:25:38,000 Speaker 4: unfathomable that they could even lose again, and then they 558 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: lose in the next fight. 559 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,160 Speaker 1: I think Jan's gonna lose his first title defense. P See. 560 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,240 Speaker 1: Maybe that's unfair, maybe that's crazy, Maybe that's probably soupid. 561 00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 4: You know, this is a fun little show for nothing, 562 00:25:45,840 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 4: But I don't know, man, Like the minute you think 563 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:50,959 Speaker 4: you're on top. The instant you think I've got this 564 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 4: thing firmly established, something just happens and it just takes 565 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 4: it all away. 566 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 2: Will it be a trilogy against Morob or the Umar 567 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,920 Speaker 2: fight that almost happened earlier this year. 568 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 1: I feel like it. I feel like it. 569 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 4: I don't, okay, I don't want to discount Morob, but 570 00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 4: I think Morob's got some work to do. I feel 571 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 4: like Umar and the the problem that Umar's got is 572 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 4: gonna have a hard time hurting you on uh and 573 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,200 Speaker 4: the other part he's gonna have a problem with is 574 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:21,399 Speaker 4: maintaining control positions because Johan is extremely squirmy. So I 575 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 4: think it's an uphill battle, or I should say it's 576 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 4: a difficult battle. But I do think it's ability to 577 00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:28,240 Speaker 4: get the positions like the back, like what you saw 578 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:28,920 Speaker 4: al Jo get. 579 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 1: I think Umar might be able to repeat some of 580 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 1: that stuff. 581 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:32,160 Speaker 6: All right. 582 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 2: My poll prediction for Bannaway for twenty six is that 583 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 2: former champion Sean O'Malley will suffer his third straight defeat. 584 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 2: He's gonna drop a decision to Song You Dong at 585 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 2: UFC three twenty four and then immediately announced that he's 586 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 2: moving up to featherweight, Long Island, Luke, where are you 587 00:26:47,240 --> 00:26:48,240 Speaker 2: going this direction here? 588 00:26:49,720 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 5: I'm going that the title changes hands more than once, 589 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 5: and I think I'm kind of on the same wavelength 590 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 5: of Luke where I think that Piodian loses his belt. 591 00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,760 Speaker 5: I'm thinking to Umar though in the first fight, and 592 00:26:59,800 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 5: then and I think they do the Mirob rematch. Mirob 593 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 5: gets it back by the end of the year, and 594 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 5: that's why Morob's champ. 595 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 6: At the end of WOW. 596 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,679 Speaker 2: A lot of belt juggling over there in the Ocida household. 597 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:12,000 Speaker 2: Let's go to featherweight and look back on what we saw. 598 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 2: We have a video from LT's prediction. 599 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 4: Well, I don't know if I'm looking forward to what 600 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 4: I'm about to say, but I do think it's headed 601 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 4: our way and we should kind of get ready for it. 602 00:27:21,160 --> 00:27:24,639 Speaker 4: I think that Volkanovsky is going to try to recapture 603 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 4: the title, and I think the US will probably award 604 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 4: him something. 605 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:28,360 Speaker 1: Now this is let me be clear. 606 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 4: By this, what I'm about to say does not count 607 00:27:31,160 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 4: if what we're talking about is interim title fights. I 608 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,640 Speaker 4: haven't quite thought that through, But what I will say 609 00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 4: is he's probably going to try to recapture the full 610 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 4: on weight class title and will fail. He will not 611 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,600 Speaker 4: get it. And I don't know what that will do 612 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:48,280 Speaker 4: for the remainder of his career, whether he will choose 613 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 4: to keep fighting, move. 614 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:52,800 Speaker 1: Up, take super fights, whatever. 615 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,919 Speaker 4: I don't know, but I think that my prediction for 616 00:27:55,920 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 4: a featherweight of twenty twenty four Isvolk's going to try 617 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 4: and recapture that title and it's not gonna work, and 618 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,600 Speaker 4: then we have to kind of deal with the with 619 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:02,480 Speaker 4: the fallout from there. 620 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:05,920 Speaker 2: Damn, damn, now that you get the year wrong. You 621 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 2: got the pick wrong, right there? There you go, all right, 622 00:28:09,119 --> 00:28:10,159 Speaker 2: I had two Well. 623 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 1: You know what we'll see. 624 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:12,359 Speaker 4: I mean, if so, here's what I would say, be 625 00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 4: see what if he loses in the rematch? The spirit 626 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 4: of what I was after would be here's the problem, dude. 627 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:19,520 Speaker 4: I mean it just it means a terrible prediction. 628 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,720 Speaker 2: Here's a problem. Nobody knows. You can't see the future. No, no, no, 629 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 2: actually knows. 630 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 1: Well that is also quite true. 631 00:28:25,359 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 4: But more to the point, he was coming off those 632 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 4: terrible knockout losses and I thought, oh that that that 633 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 4: that egg might have been cracked. But credits d volk Man. 634 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,399 Speaker 4: He is he's fucking different. 635 00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. I had two predictions for featherweight for the new year. 636 00:28:38,360 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 2: Both did not come true. Pitbull h free Air fre 637 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:45,000 Speaker 2: Eddie pit Patricio would come to the UFC and make 638 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: his debut in a title fight that did not happen. 639 00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 2: And Arnold Allen will go to and Oh and be 640 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:54,640 Speaker 2: on his way to a title shot exiting twenty twenty five. Yeah, 641 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 2: I don't. I don't know what happened to the Almighty. 642 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 2: We need your back. I know he's got a big 643 00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,600 Speaker 2: fight coming up Long Island. Luke predict that Ilia Taporia 644 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:06,520 Speaker 2: will move up Vulk will reclaim the title against Diego Lopez. 645 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:12,120 Speaker 2: Both came true. Ltlil let's go killing it known. 646 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 6: I'm thinking back to this. 647 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,720 Speaker 5: We must have known that Vulc versus Diego is at 648 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 5: least rumored or something, because that fight was in April. 649 00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 6: This was December. 650 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,040 Speaker 5: Like I think back, I like all year, I didn't 651 00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,000 Speaker 5: remember calling that. I feel like we must have known 652 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 5: that fight was books. It wasn't that crazy. But take 653 00:29:27,920 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 5: my flowers either way. 654 00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 2: Well, as we predict who will be champion at featherweight 655 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 2: to end twenty twenty six, it's unanimous across the board, 656 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 2: all three of us got it the same LT. Who's 657 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 2: it gonna be? 658 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 4: Who was a clean sweep here at MK we kind 659 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 4: of feel like mostarv Loiev might be the guy now 660 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 4: obviously BC, we don't even know if he's gonna get 661 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,320 Speaker 4: a title shot, and we don't even know if he's 662 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,280 Speaker 4: even I mean, he was at a non factor in 663 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five. 664 00:29:53,080 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: That's just the reality, you know. So he'sa been this 665 00:29:56,160 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 1: guy hanging. 666 00:29:57,320 --> 00:30:00,880 Speaker 4: Over the division and without really material into anything that 667 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 4: we thought we could match his potential, but be seen, 668 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 4: maybe this year feels a little bit different, like there's 669 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 4: some openings potentially if you can get back in there 670 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 4: and do what he does best. He seems like a 671 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 4: formidable guy to root against, you know. 672 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if we if we're mapping it out, 673 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 2: he'd have to take on that fight in the second 674 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 2: half of the year. I think that's very possible. And 675 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,480 Speaker 2: the only thing is, though, let's be fair, UFC seems 676 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 2: to be going against that direction. We've seen Islam Mahachev 677 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 2: come out and complain about run at fuck we not 678 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:33,960 Speaker 2: fucked Retina off getting. 679 00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: Caught, That's exactly how you say it, or not. 680 00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 2: Re signed after going six to OHO one and basically Islam. 681 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 2: I'm saying in an interview that, uh, if you're not exciting, 682 00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 2: if you don't talk on the microphone, if you're wrestling heavy, 683 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: you're probably not who they're looking for. I would have 684 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 2: to believe they want more American stars, they want to 685 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 2: not just have all Daugistan dominant wrestlers. But uh, I 686 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:58,840 Speaker 2: don't know if EVILV can ultimately be denied, and I'd 687 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 2: like his chances against low As or Volk. So that's 688 00:31:01,200 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 2: where I'm going that way For breakthrough Fighter of the Year, 689 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 2: both LT and I went the way of Kevin va Jehols. Yeah, yes, 690 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 2: he's the new the Argentine Ilia. Yes, he's a banger. 691 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: L I L You're going Nathaniel wood. 692 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 6: Brother, Yeah, Nathaniel would who just beat Jose Delgado. That 693 00:31:19,960 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 6: was a big upset. 694 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,560 Speaker 5: He's six and one in the UFC since moving up 695 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,960 Speaker 5: to featherweight, and he does get like always goes decision, 696 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 5: which is probably why they're not giving him big fights. 697 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:29,280 Speaker 6: But I feel like this is gonna be the year 698 00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 6: he breaks into the top fifteen. 699 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,200 Speaker 2: So all right, fair enough, let's go. 700 00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 1: I'm done rooting against Long Island Luke's predictions. 701 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:36,239 Speaker 2: They're very Yeah, he's on fire. Let's go for our 702 00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 2: ball prediction. Let's go right to OCDA. What's your bull 703 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: prediction at featherweight for the new year. 704 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,200 Speaker 5: This was similar to my women's bandon weight last year 705 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 5: when I said about Holly Holm. Josh Emmett will headline 706 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 5: a UFC event in twenty twenty six. Okay, they milked 707 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 5: this guy for all these words. For the headliners. He 708 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,880 Speaker 5: has lost, like top of my head, three in a row. 709 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 2: Maybe even that ain't that bold, brother, that ain't that bold. 710 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 6: Grief wour in a row. They should not give him 711 00:31:58,320 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 6: a headliner. They're gonna it's gonna be Ay. 712 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 2: Spevac headlines every other APEX card. He's a heavyweight dude. 713 00:32:03,560 --> 00:32:05,520 Speaker 1: David Onama headlined a card. 714 00:32:05,560 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 6: I mean it was on a winning streak. It's way different. 715 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 6: Josh Emmett hasn't want to fight in a while, right. 716 00:32:10,480 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, but people like Josh Iman he's got big power. 717 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 6: You got to win to be able to use that power. 718 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 2: All right, that's true. My bold prediction for featherway for 719 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,720 Speaker 2: the new year is Laron Murphy coming off of that 720 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:25,400 Speaker 2: spinning knockout of Aaron Pico. I don't believe he actually 721 00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 2: fights for the title in twenty twenty six. Obviously, the 722 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 2: fact that they went with Diego Lopez for the rematch 723 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 2: with Volk says a lot about what the company thinks 724 00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 2: about both him and Movsar. I think Molsar would get 725 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: the edge in getting the next title shot. And when 726 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 2: you look around this division, I'm not sure Laron Murphy, 727 00:32:41,640 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: who looked great in that one fight, Look he maybe 728 00:32:43,840 --> 00:32:46,440 Speaker 2: the next Leon Edwards and maybe Feast or Famine right 729 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 2: six seven, it may be a little bit of that. 730 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,240 Speaker 2: I don't think Murphy gets to the title fight in 731 00:32:50,280 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 2: this year, even though he's on a hell of a run. 732 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:53,240 Speaker 2: What's your prediction? 733 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:55,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, okay, so I'm not making a claim 734 00:32:55,960 --> 00:32:58,680 Speaker 4: here about winning or losing. I'm making a claim about volume, 735 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 4: and I I think that you're gonna get two more 736 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 4: fights from Volk and then I think he's gonna call 737 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 4: it a day now. This is not exactly on the 738 00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 4: case of Long islandlud. This is also not exactly a 739 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:10,160 Speaker 4: bold prediction because there's kind of been rumors about it. 740 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 4: But what I'm thinking is he could win the first 741 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 4: one then lose the second one and go. 742 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: He could lose two more and then say that's it, 743 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: or he could win too. 744 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 4: Like I feel like two kind of feels like the 745 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 4: mad number of what's left now. Of course, I thought 746 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,080 Speaker 4: he was gonna lose to Diego Lopez, but he still might. 747 00:33:25,160 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 1: He still might. 748 00:33:25,960 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 4: Nevertheless, BC, I think he could go on a winning 749 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,120 Speaker 4: streak he go in a losing streak. Either way, I 750 00:33:30,160 --> 00:33:32,400 Speaker 4: feel like he's got two more in him. And by 751 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:34,719 Speaker 4: the way, maybe one's at fifty five again, I don't know, 752 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 4: but it's two more in them and then he's gonna 753 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 4: call it a day. 754 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:41,120 Speaker 2: All right, Let's move on to the always exciting lightweight division, 755 00:33:41,160 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 2: where at the end of last year, your boy BC 756 00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 2: just coming out shooting them in a barrel. Let's see 757 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 2: my prediction. Look, my prediction for this division in twenty 758 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 2: five is Patty Pimblet's gonna have a year. I still 759 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 2: don't know if he is truly of the ILK and 760 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:57,760 Speaker 2: when he does finally get his opportunity, can he climb 761 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,440 Speaker 2: that mountain and become a champion. There's still too many questions. 762 00:34:00,480 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 2: Even though he's trending in a better direction of late, 763 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 2: don't forget his Submission of the year contender against King Green, 764 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:09,520 Speaker 2: and if he's headed toward a money Moikano test fight, 765 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: I think it's still one that he can win. But 766 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,759 Speaker 2: what if he goes into the top ten there over 767 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:15,399 Speaker 2: the second half of the year and scores a big 768 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:18,520 Speaker 2: win over a still highly ranked aging name in what 769 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:20,919 Speaker 2: we would look at as a big step up for him. Luke, 770 00:34:20,960 --> 00:34:23,920 Speaker 2: My Bowl prediction is that pimblet ends the year in 771 00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 2: the top five at one fifty five, and really we 772 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,799 Speaker 2: start setting up what's the site, what's the pay per view, 773 00:34:29,840 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 2: what's the venue where he fights for a world title? 774 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:36,240 Speaker 1: In pretty close? 775 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,960 Speaker 4: Now, he got in there with some bullshit, which you 776 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:42,120 Speaker 4: have to admit. However, by hook or by crook, that 777 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 4: one's pretty good. 778 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:45,080 Speaker 2: I mean that was ultimately the part of the fuel 779 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:47,360 Speaker 2: of the prediction that it wouldn't be he would be 780 00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:50,520 Speaker 2: earning it in our eyes of beating the top contenders, 781 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,279 Speaker 2: but they would give him an aging name. There's a 782 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:54,200 Speaker 2: lot of them. He got a chandler who was on 783 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,080 Speaker 2: a losing skid and was you know, set up for him. 784 00:34:57,320 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 2: But to his credit, he passed the test and his 785 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:02,359 Speaker 2: market ability has him now in an interim title fight 786 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,880 Speaker 2: and we don't even know if Elia is going to 787 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 2: defend that title again based on his current issues there 788 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,600 Speaker 2: in the family situation. So that was my prediction. I 789 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,880 Speaker 2: nailed it. Long Island, Luke said, at least five guys 790 00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 2: in the top ten will no longer be there? Was 791 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:17,800 Speaker 2: that true? Long Island? 792 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 6: See, I don't. 793 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:20,719 Speaker 5: I should have wrote down the top ten at the time. 794 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 5: I don't actually know if that's true. I did name 795 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:25,520 Speaker 5: three people when I said it, and I said Pourier Hooker, 796 00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:29,280 Speaker 5: Daryuche Hooker is still there, Darusche might be lingering. 797 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 6: Near the top ten. 798 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: I don't think so retired. 799 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 6: But yes, I don't know if it came true. 800 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 5: But I also feel like that's vague enough for that 801 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 5: probably comes true in every division every year. 802 00:35:37,040 --> 00:35:38,480 Speaker 2: So yeah, I mean, but no, it was a good 803 00:35:38,520 --> 00:35:41,400 Speaker 2: prediction because this division needs turnover. It kind of is 804 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 2: aging names to go. Luke, you predicted that iliot Ta 805 00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 2: Porio will get one big fight, win it, and be 806 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 2: in conversation for a title in twenty six. Dude, you 807 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,959 Speaker 2: did not see this divorce coming at all. 808 00:35:54,120 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 1: Bro. 809 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,359 Speaker 4: Nope, I mean, but I feel like I got most 810 00:35:57,360 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 4: of that right. You know what I'm saying he had 811 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 4: the one big fight and then he was in conversations 812 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:03,120 Speaker 4: for the Islam fight for. 813 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 2: Most of the right. You could play with that. 814 00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: I feel like, I mean, that one's pretty close. 815 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: That's pretty true, all right, as we look to be 816 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,400 Speaker 2: who will be the champion of this division at the 817 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 2: end of the year, Luke Thomas, you're sticking with Topterrio. 818 00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 4: Or what I am sticking with top Torio. I very 819 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,439 Speaker 4: much struggled on this one because BC, here's the thing. 820 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,600 Speaker 4: There's a question of whether so Yukin will beat him 821 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 4: or could beat him, But there's a bigger question, which is, 822 00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:29,280 Speaker 4: of course, is that motherfucker even gonna get a title shot? 823 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:31,480 Speaker 1: And I don't really answer to. 824 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 4: That because if Pimblet wins, I mean, it doesn't even 825 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,319 Speaker 4: matter who wins the at the next headlining event, right, 826 00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:38,279 Speaker 4: it's between Pimblet and Gage. 827 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 1: They're gonna get to Poria, you think, probably. 828 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 2: Right, or. 829 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,480 Speaker 1: Just I don't know how this is gonna go. 830 00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 4: Are they gonna move to Poria to seventy in some 831 00:36:48,480 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 4: kind of crazy move, or is he gonna be back 832 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 4: in time to take on Pip. I don't know, but 833 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 4: I just kind of feel like when the dust settles. 834 00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:58,680 Speaker 4: He's gotta have at least one more in this weight class, 835 00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:01,840 Speaker 4: and I think it's probably gonna be Pimblet and I 836 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,879 Speaker 4: think he probably wins that one. 837 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:04,960 Speaker 1: That's kind of how I feel. 838 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 2: That's the same prediction Long Island Luke gave that Eliot 839 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:10,680 Speaker 2: Tiporia would end the year as the lightweight champion. I'm 840 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 2: going against that for a lot of the reasons that 841 00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 2: you said. There's already been some rumors, not substantiated, but 842 00:37:15,800 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 2: rumors online that Alia could vacate the title given what's 843 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,320 Speaker 2: going on in this personal life. I think the combination 844 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 2: of that we don't know how long he'll be out 845 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:26,760 Speaker 2: mixed with the combination that we know his upward ambition 846 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,440 Speaker 2: that he wants to fight Islam at one seventy, whether 847 00:37:29,520 --> 00:37:32,600 Speaker 2: that makes sense or not, I think that my prediction 848 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 2: is wide open for this division. So when I look 849 00:37:34,960 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 2: at the landscape, even though he was passed over, my 850 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 2: prediction for champion is one armand Saryuki in the Armenian Hulk. 851 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,080 Speaker 2: And I actually think that all of this stuff he's 852 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:48,400 Speaker 2: had to fight through, whether it's been partially self induced 853 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:52,759 Speaker 2: or not, has only built up the time that he's 854 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:55,200 Speaker 2: working in the gym to well round his game, and 855 00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 2: I think it's also making him angrier and meaner. When 856 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 2: I look at that Patty versus ge Chee interim title fight, 857 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 2: I think Armand smokes either guy. So I think Sara 858 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,360 Speaker 2: Yuki in ends this year as champion, and if he 859 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,239 Speaker 2: has to do it by going through Ilia Luke, I'm 860 00:38:10,280 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 2: starting to believe that that's not a fifty to fifty fight. 861 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,440 Speaker 2: Jiporia is arguing they'll be the best fighter in the world, 862 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 2: but I believe sar Yuki can win that fight. 863 00:38:17,640 --> 00:38:19,279 Speaker 1: I do. I'll tell you this much. 864 00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 4: If there's anybody at fifty five who's beaten Ilia, it's 865 00:38:21,840 --> 00:38:24,319 Speaker 4: armansar Yuki in fact, and by the way, he's on 866 00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:26,600 Speaker 4: a little bit of a count of Monte Cristo tour 867 00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:27,800 Speaker 4: this weekend. 868 00:38:28,160 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: This weekend, he's out there. 869 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 4: In Russia and it's a grappling match, but with Shara Bullet, 870 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,680 Speaker 4: who's a fucking middleweight. And by the way, I kind 871 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 4: of like Sarayuki have chances, if I'm being honest, So 872 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 4: I listen, if there is any any any threat to Ilia, 873 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 4: it's Arman sar Yuki, and I just don't know if 874 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 4: he's even gonna get a fucking opportunity. 875 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 2: But it's like maybe he gets one where Ilia is 876 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 2: not mentally where he needs to be. I mean, sometimes 877 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 2: divorces bring out the best in people's art, usually in songwriting, 878 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 2: but I don't know if that's gonna, you know, mean 879 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 2: it in this case. 880 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 4: Well for that first fight back you see, let's just 881 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,719 Speaker 4: say for whatever reason it works out in this circumstance 882 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:08,160 Speaker 4: where the first fight Ilia has back is sar yuki In, 883 00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 4: I might pick sar yuki In in that particular case, 884 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 4: you know what I mean? Where you know all that 885 00:39:13,640 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 4: that seems to me like destined for problems for Iliop. 886 00:39:17,480 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 4: But I guess I don't think he. 887 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,919 Speaker 2: Was ready when when he pulled out of the Islam fight, 888 00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:23,520 Speaker 2: like literally ready to take over. But I think it's 889 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: built up a callous on him that's going to lead 890 00:39:26,840 --> 00:39:28,879 Speaker 2: him to where he needs to be. Let's go break 891 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 2: through fighter of the year in this division. I'm going 892 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: with Ferice ziam is that how you say it? The 893 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:38,280 Speaker 2: Frenchman who keeps sending people to hell with that Forvola 894 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 2: head kick and continuing on. I think he's on a 895 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 2: hot run where he is going to make some noise 896 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,080 Speaker 2: at the top end of this division. We need some 897 00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 2: breakthrough from some new fighters, so I'm going that direction. LT. 898 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:49,799 Speaker 2: Where are you going? 899 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 1: For my selection? 900 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:55,240 Speaker 4: I went with Manuel Torrez, who has not been without 901 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:59,120 Speaker 4: necessarily a bit of an issue BC at fifty five. 902 00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,040 Speaker 4: He did lose to ignastu By on Monday's be a 903 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,480 Speaker 4: stoppage by the way at UFC three zero six. But 904 00:40:03,480 --> 00:40:05,600 Speaker 4: if you look at his other fights BC, Frank Camacho, 905 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 4: Nicholas Mota, Duncan and then this year in particular Drew 906 00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 4: Dober and Grant Dawson, all of those are stoppages. All 907 00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 4: of those were Performance of the Night bonus winners. My 908 00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,640 Speaker 4: man's got some skills, kind of like Josh VANBC, where 909 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 4: you can tell he's still green in certain areas and 910 00:40:21,400 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 4: maybe a little bit too risk ready, but clearly has 911 00:40:25,800 --> 00:40:29,879 Speaker 4: great athleticism, phenomenal footwork, good speed, a willingness to get 912 00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,920 Speaker 4: in there, a natural finisher BC. I got my eye 913 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:35,800 Speaker 4: on Manual Torres. I think you might do something special 914 00:40:35,840 --> 00:40:36,200 Speaker 4: this year. 915 00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:38,719 Speaker 2: It might not be a surprise to some here, but 916 00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,880 Speaker 2: Long Island Luke's got his eyes on an Ausie man, don't. 917 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I do. 918 00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:44,840 Speaker 5: Quillan Saul killed Man three and zero in the UFC 919 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:47,879 Speaker 5: two like really nice knockouts, one over Nasat hack Press. 920 00:40:47,920 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 6: I feel like most a lot of people. 921 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 5: Don't knock out a Nasrat and he got nine takedowns 922 00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:54,680 Speaker 5: in his Contender series fight like people forget. He's also 923 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,480 Speaker 5: got wrestling chops too, so I'm interested to see. I 924 00:40:57,520 --> 00:40:59,720 Speaker 5: think he's ranked by the end of twenty twenty. 925 00:41:00,160 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 4: Need Australia to send fighters that don't have strange names 926 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,719 Speaker 4: that are hard to remember how to spell, That's what 927 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:07,480 Speaker 4: I need from them. 928 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,200 Speaker 6: Robert Whittaker was too tough on you see. 929 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:11,880 Speaker 1: Robert Whitaker is. 930 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 4: A great example, but like Jack Dala Madeleine, it's like 931 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:15,800 Speaker 4: how many l's, how many. 932 00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 1: D's, it's it's you know, it's not my favorite. 933 00:41:18,719 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 4: It's not like Poland where it's basically just impossible, but yeah, 934 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:22,399 Speaker 4: you know it's tough. 935 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 2: Oh, like Shayshuck. My bold prediction for lightweight for the 936 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:29,239 Speaker 2: new year is this Benoir sent Denis. I think he's 937 00:41:29,239 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 2: turned it around. He's not without flaws, but the recklessness 938 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:35,480 Speaker 2: some of the the things that slipped him up in 939 00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:38,640 Speaker 2: that losing skid which began against Dustin Poier. I think 940 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 2: it's behind him. I say he goes two and zero 941 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,759 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty six and he enters twenty twenty seven 942 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,840 Speaker 2: as the number one contender for the title. L I 943 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,400 Speaker 2: L what or LT excuse me? Where you going? 944 00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 1: Uh? Well I did? I did? 945 00:41:52,160 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 2: Oh? You mean for the bold prediction, Yeah, that's where 946 00:41:54,480 --> 00:41:54,759 Speaker 2: we're at. 947 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 1: Okay, So for my bull. 948 00:41:56,440 --> 00:42:01,279 Speaker 4: Prediction, uh I put r yuki In is going to 949 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:04,600 Speaker 4: get somehow a title shot and then lose the iliend. 950 00:42:04,600 --> 00:42:07,760 Speaker 4: Now here's what I mean by that. I think Patty. 951 00:42:08,040 --> 00:42:10,200 Speaker 4: I think Patty's probably gonna be Gaechee. So I think 952 00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,720 Speaker 4: Patty's gonna be the guy. But I feel like something's 953 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 4: gonna happen potentially before we get there. 954 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:16,719 Speaker 1: It's all very unpredictable. 955 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:21,680 Speaker 4: But it feels like BC it's wrong to say that 956 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:24,960 Speaker 4: Taporia and Soaryuki and are on a collision course right now, 957 00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:28,320 Speaker 4: especially because there's just other stuff happening. But I feel 958 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 4: like people are gonna realize some already do, but it's 959 00:42:31,040 --> 00:42:33,440 Speaker 4: gonna be much more widely known that that's one of 960 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:35,879 Speaker 4: the best fights at MMA you can make, and there's 961 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 4: gonna be huge demand to make it. Maybe Patty gets injured, 962 00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 4: maybe something happens. 963 00:42:40,880 --> 00:42:42,359 Speaker 1: Who knows, But I. 964 00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:43,839 Speaker 4: Feel like they're gonna find a way to get it done. 965 00:42:43,840 --> 00:42:46,480 Speaker 4: And I feel like Ilia is gonna you know, Rain Triumphant. 966 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 2: I thought you just predicted that you'd favor Arman. I 967 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:50,600 Speaker 2: thought I heard that earlier. 968 00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:53,239 Speaker 4: Well, in the sense of it is the first fight back, 969 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,480 Speaker 4: and it's back. He's out a long while, maybe so 970 00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:58,680 Speaker 4: if he comes back more quickly, maybe less. So I 971 00:42:58,719 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 4: feel like these audahl like, let's say, what was it, 972 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:03,799 Speaker 4: when was this fight against Charles, like March April or. 973 00:43:03,760 --> 00:43:06,160 Speaker 6: Something like that, No international fight week end. 974 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:07,479 Speaker 1: Of July Junior July. 975 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,239 Speaker 4: If he's out a full year or more from that, 976 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,880 Speaker 4: or even eighteen months like, then I would be concerned. 977 00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:16,040 Speaker 4: But if he comes back relatively quickly, then I'm still 978 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 4: gonna pick you. 979 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,320 Speaker 2: All right, Long Island, Look where you're going something bold. 980 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:19,560 Speaker 1: Here or what? 981 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going bold because if you remember, I said 982 00:43:22,480 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 5: end of year champion will be Iliot Saporia. But my 983 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:27,919 Speaker 5: bold prediction is he doesn't even fight in the year 984 00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:31,239 Speaker 5: twenty twenty six. He's going through personal issues the whole year. 985 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 5: UFC likes him enough they keep the interim title, maybe 986 00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 5: even let them bend the interim. 987 00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:38,800 Speaker 6: Title, but Ilia is undisputed at the end of the year. 988 00:43:38,719 --> 00:43:44,480 Speaker 2: So you're predicting that Ilia has one hundred problems and. 989 00:43:43,440 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 1: Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey hey hey Yeah. 990 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,600 Speaker 2: No no no no, no, no, no no no. Let's go 991 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:53,239 Speaker 2: to welterweight where last year BC predicted that Islam Mahachev 992 00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:57,200 Speaker 2: would move up to one seventy and become a double champ. 993 00:43:58,120 --> 00:43:59,040 Speaker 2: Yeah there you go. 994 00:43:59,000 --> 00:43:59,919 Speaker 1: Well done. 995 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 2: Okay, it's that easy. LT. You said Shafcott Rockmanoff would 996 00:44:04,239 --> 00:44:08,560 Speaker 2: defeat Ballal and become champ. I believe that too myself, didn't. 997 00:44:08,680 --> 00:44:11,359 Speaker 4: I mean, I'll say this, if Shapcott had fought him, 998 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,600 Speaker 4: I would still pick Schafcott to become champ. 999 00:44:14,640 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 1: But it didn't work out that way, did it. 1000 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,439 Speaker 2: Uh? Long Island? Look you got I don't know where 1001 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:21,880 Speaker 2: you were going with this. Blah Muhammad would exit the 1002 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 2: year as welterweight champion. What's going on? 1003 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 1: Yeah? What the fuck? 1004 00:44:24,719 --> 00:44:26,040 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, don't even ex work. 1005 00:44:26,160 --> 00:44:27,120 Speaker 6: Worst take of the year? 1006 00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, worst taking. 1007 00:44:28,680 --> 00:44:32,560 Speaker 4: You had simultaneously the very best prediction and the worst. 1008 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 2: In terms of who ends this year as lightweight champ 1009 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:39,839 Speaker 2: or welterweight champion. It's a sweep all three of us 1010 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,879 Speaker 2: going to Islam, Maha chev Luke. It seems like there 1011 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:46,400 Speaker 2: aren't a lot of people we believe who could handle 1012 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 2: Islam's wrestling and well rounded game at this weight class. 1013 00:44:49,560 --> 00:44:53,120 Speaker 2: Shafcott certainly one of them. But you think he's gonna 1014 00:44:53,160 --> 00:44:54,120 Speaker 2: run the table ultimately. 1015 00:44:55,040 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 1: I think Shafcott. 1016 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,919 Speaker 4: I think they're gonna make him fight at least one 1017 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 4: more guy, maybe two. I don't think so, But I 1018 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 4: feel like there's already kind of a he can win 1019 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 4: a fight BC to like make himself eligible to be 1020 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,240 Speaker 4: number one contender. But there's just a lot of movement 1021 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 4: or past him, you know what I mean. Like there's 1022 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,319 Speaker 4: just a lot of other names that are already being 1023 00:45:17,320 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 4: circulated ahead of him. 1024 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 2: And I think, got Gary, you got Morales, you could 1025 00:45:22,600 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 2: have Ilia. Like there's a lot going on in this today. 1026 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: There's a lot going on. 1027 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,920 Speaker 4: And who knows how many times Islam even fights this 1028 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 4: year as he ages out, especially if he fights on 1029 00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,000 Speaker 4: you know, I don't on the White House card or 1030 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,160 Speaker 4: who knows, maybe he just decides I don't want to 1031 00:45:34,239 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 4: keep doing this for a whole lot longer. But do 1032 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 4: he looked incredible against Jack Dala Medaline? I know everyone 1033 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:40,359 Speaker 4: thought that Jack kind of shipped the bet on that one. 1034 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 4: And yeah, he didn't have his best night, that's for sure, 1035 00:45:42,239 --> 00:45:45,719 Speaker 4: but you know, that was a very very good win 1036 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 4: against a very very credential opponent. So I'm a big 1037 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:50,879 Speaker 4: believer in him at seventy at this point, you know. 1038 00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 2: All right, but look for breakthrough Fighter of the Year. 1039 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,839 Speaker 2: You picked Michael Morales when I think he already broke through. 1040 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 2: He knocked out the number one contender, Sean Brady. 1041 00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 4: So just like the case of Peyton beating Henry, now 1042 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 4: that one's different. But what I'm saying is it kind 1043 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:06,480 Speaker 4: of served the same purpose in terms of being a 1044 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 4: breakout performance, no question about it. 1045 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 1: But that one is actually. 1046 00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 4: Better in my mind BC, because Brady is also a 1047 00:46:13,440 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 4: young ish top contender, So that one's actually for Morales 1048 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 4: even better. But the one I'm trying to make is 1049 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:21,279 Speaker 4: I don't know how fast they're going to roll him out. 1050 00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 1: It kind of to to face Islam. 1051 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,720 Speaker 4: I mean, I think that they want to keep him 1052 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 4: at least at least one more and I feel like 1053 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:33,120 Speaker 4: potentially even two BC because there are just lots of 1054 00:46:33,160 --> 00:46:34,120 Speaker 4: developmental reasons. 1055 00:46:34,239 --> 00:46:35,400 Speaker 1: But the one I'm trying to make is. 1056 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 4: I think he's gonna have some other big wins here 1057 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,879 Speaker 4: this year that have nothing to do with Islam Maker 1058 00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:41,520 Speaker 4: Chevn perhaps even more than one. 1059 00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 2: All right, my breakthrough fighter at welterwait, it's going to 1060 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,360 Speaker 2: be our slav Amasov, and I think he's gonna have 1061 00:46:46,360 --> 00:46:49,600 Speaker 2: an RDR type run of quick activity, going to score 1062 00:46:49,640 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 2: some big wins, going to show you the combination of 1063 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 2: the stamina, hunger and submission game, and probably exits the year, 1064 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,080 Speaker 2: putting himself in true title contention. Long, look who's breaking 1065 00:46:59,120 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 2: through here? 1066 00:47:00,880 --> 00:47:02,359 Speaker 6: I took Mick to beck oral By. 1067 00:47:02,480 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 5: He's four and one in the UFC two and oh 1068 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:06,839 Speaker 5: at Welter wait, he's coming off that hillacious knockout over 1069 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:07,640 Speaker 5: Jack Hermanson. 1070 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 6: I feel like they're gonna give him a big name. 1071 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 5: He's also all action, like a lot of fun, and 1072 00:47:11,400 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 5: he's had a lower degree like Jed Misheu chose a 1073 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:15,160 Speaker 5: combat sports nice. 1074 00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,120 Speaker 2: They're both using it right now. I think he's a 1075 00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:19,719 Speaker 2: little too wild to end up there, but we'll see 1076 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,040 Speaker 2: what happens. That was a great knockout of the veteran Jack. 1077 00:47:22,280 --> 00:47:24,839 Speaker 2: Let's go to a bold ass prediction. I'm gonna start 1078 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 2: it because this is it. This is what's gonna happen. 1079 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 2: Islam Mahachev will fight three times this year, the first 1080 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,680 Speaker 2: time since twenty twenty one, and his wins will end 1081 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:38,520 Speaker 2: up being Kamara usman Ian Maschado Gary and shav Kot 1082 00:47:38,600 --> 00:47:43,479 Speaker 2: rock Manoff to win back to back Fighter of the Year. 1083 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 4: Well, if he did that, he definitely would be I 1084 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 4: don't know if I have him fighting three times, we see, 1085 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 4: but my prediction is pretty close to yours. 1086 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,480 Speaker 1: Yours is Boulder. I agree, it is certainly bolder, but I. 1087 00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 4: Think basically he's gonna get He's gonna sneak two of 1088 00:47:57,719 --> 00:48:00,640 Speaker 4: them in there now. I definitely think is gonna be 1089 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:04,440 Speaker 4: one of them, so you know, fucking kill me. But nevertheless, 1090 00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:06,760 Speaker 4: here's my prediction the BC. I don't think he's gonna 1091 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,759 Speaker 4: by the time Morales is ready. I think Islam is 1092 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 4: gonna out the door. I think that's what I think is. 1093 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,640 Speaker 4: I think if they fought now, I'm picking Islam. I 1094 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:17,400 Speaker 4: think Islam's level of ability is just too high for 1095 00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 4: a guy like that. But a guy like that with 1096 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,479 Speaker 4: those kinds of physical tools, who can still cut weight 1097 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:27,160 Speaker 4: down to this, but he can really get everything dialed in. 1098 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,200 Speaker 4: I don't know if anybody can beat a guy like that, 1099 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,359 Speaker 4: so whether he'll get there BC. This is what I'm 1100 00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 4: trying to say about this year. I think he's gonna 1101 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,560 Speaker 4: show as he can, but he's got to do it first. 1102 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 2: Islam told me during fight week in November that he 1103 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:39,160 Speaker 2: can fight a lot more at this weight class. I 1104 00:48:39,160 --> 00:48:41,320 Speaker 2: know Ramadan comes into play, but we'll see what happens. 1105 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 2: Low guy luke bold prediction blah Mohammad becomes champion again. 1106 00:48:45,040 --> 00:48:47,239 Speaker 5: No, I had to do the exact opposite this time, 1107 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 5: so I did. Blah Mohammad goes winless in twenty twenty six. 1108 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 5: I don't know how many times he fights, but he 1109 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:52,839 Speaker 5: does not win one of them. 1110 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 2: Right, I could buy that. Unfortunately, like but I could 1111 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 2: buy that. 1112 00:48:56,000 --> 00:48:58,040 Speaker 4: I like ballall too, But that's just how this game goes. 1113 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,239 Speaker 4: It's like, oh, you're champion, then you lose the belt. 1114 00:49:00,239 --> 00:49:02,000 Speaker 4: It was like Leon Edwards, right. 1115 00:49:02,000 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 1: Just lose, lose, lose, lose. It's just how this game 1116 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:05,160 Speaker 1: fucking goes. 1117 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 2: Man, All right, let's go with the middleweight division, which 1118 00:49:07,360 --> 00:49:09,680 Speaker 2: is kind of becoming the new light heavyweight, meaning that 1119 00:49:09,719 --> 00:49:11,759 Speaker 2: we're kind of void of big things going on. We 1120 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 2: do have a big champion right now. We'll get to 1121 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:15,920 Speaker 2: that in the second. My prediction on who would end 1122 00:49:15,960 --> 00:49:20,480 Speaker 2: this year as middleweight champion, I'm sorry. My bold prediction 1123 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:21,319 Speaker 2: from last year? 1124 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 1: Do I have this right? 1125 00:49:23,560 --> 00:49:23,719 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1126 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1127 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:25,480 Speaker 2: Was that Bo Nickel. 1128 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,720 Speaker 1: Oh, you nailed it would suffer his first pro defeat. 1129 00:49:28,840 --> 00:49:30,440 Speaker 2: I don't even think that was that bold, but it 1130 00:49:30,480 --> 00:49:32,879 Speaker 2: did happen. Remember he was coming off that Paul Craig 1131 00:49:32,960 --> 00:49:36,040 Speaker 2: fight where it was just weird. He didn't shooper takedowns. 1132 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,000 Speaker 2: He didn't seem to understand why he didn't fight great 1133 00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:42,360 Speaker 2: Long Island. Luke predicted that the title will change hands 1134 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:46,160 Speaker 2: more than once. That did not happen. An lt you 1135 00:49:46,200 --> 00:49:48,960 Speaker 2: predicted that Israel lot of Signer will retire. While that 1136 00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 2: didn't happen, it feels like he's close. 1137 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:53,719 Speaker 4: It did not happen, so that one's wrong. Although and 1138 00:49:53,760 --> 00:49:56,400 Speaker 4: he put he did an interview with BEng Tao in 1139 00:49:56,880 --> 00:49:59,640 Speaker 4: Thailand and where he said, you know, he doesn't even 1140 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:01,479 Speaker 4: care about the anymore. He just wants some fun fights. 1141 00:50:01,480 --> 00:50:02,799 Speaker 4: So he's still got a little life left in him. 1142 00:50:02,800 --> 00:50:06,160 Speaker 1: I buried him too soon, but even by his own admission, 1143 00:50:06,280 --> 00:50:07,800 Speaker 1: you know he's out of the championship picture. 1144 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:11,279 Speaker 2: Here's what's interesting. All three of us are picking that 1145 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 2: the champion at middleweight to close the year will be 1146 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 2: meet the new Boss, same as the old boss, ham 1147 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 2: zat CHEMAIAV and I say that's interesting because he's never active, 1148 00:50:20,320 --> 00:50:23,319 Speaker 2: he's always talking about moving up to light heavyweight. We 1149 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,520 Speaker 2: all still think he's gonna run the table. I think 1150 00:50:25,560 --> 00:50:28,160 Speaker 2: some of that is this division's not that deep. Luke, 1151 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:29,839 Speaker 2: how many times does Chamaia fight? 1152 00:50:29,920 --> 00:50:32,319 Speaker 1: Then, well you kind of got me to my bowl 1153 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:34,040 Speaker 1: prediction here on, go for it, go for it. 1154 00:50:34,040 --> 00:50:36,400 Speaker 4: My bull prediction is he fights once, definitely, and I 1155 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:38,400 Speaker 4: think he wins, so I think he ends the year's champion, 1156 00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:41,040 Speaker 4: which is what we put down. However, I think he's 1157 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,040 Speaker 4: going to have another issue where he might be out 1158 00:50:43,080 --> 00:50:45,719 Speaker 4: after the win, and the ufd's going to create an 1159 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 4: interim middleweight title for whoever comes up next because he 1160 00:50:49,120 --> 00:50:51,200 Speaker 4: cannot be active as a consequence. 1161 00:50:51,239 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 1: That's what I think. 1162 00:50:52,239 --> 00:50:55,560 Speaker 2: All right, Reggie, get down, Reggie, this dude's driving me nuts. 1163 00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:57,719 Speaker 2: This won't a break all right, Let's. 1164 00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:59,799 Speaker 1: Go to don't you dare disrespect mister October. 1165 00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 2: Yes, thank you, breakthrough fighter of the year at middleweight. 1166 00:51:03,320 --> 00:51:05,560 Speaker 2: The two of you Lukes, let's go to Nocina here 1167 00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:08,920 Speaker 2: have the same pick. Why are you going at Taba Gautier. 1168 00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 5: I mean he's twenty three years old, three and zero 1169 00:51:11,600 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 5: in the UFC all first round knockouts. 1170 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,520 Speaker 6: He seems like he's super likable too. 1171 00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 5: Bco is telling LTU off camera that in the embedded 1172 00:51:18,680 --> 00:51:20,840 Speaker 5: last time, they brought him to like a cat cafe 1173 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:23,240 Speaker 5: and he was just like surrounded by kittens. 1174 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:24,800 Speaker 6: Having the time of his life. I mean, I'm just 1175 00:51:24,920 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 6: rooting for the guy. 1176 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,360 Speaker 5: I think they want to root for him too, so 1177 00:51:27,360 --> 00:51:30,400 Speaker 5: I think he's gonna get favorable matchups and middleweight not 1178 00:51:30,440 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 5: that deep. 1179 00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 6: He could crack the top fifteen. 1180 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:34,919 Speaker 2: So it's the lack of depth that makes me pick 1181 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,640 Speaker 2: Joe Pifer as my breakthrough fighter. I don't love his 1182 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:40,960 Speaker 2: comments about Mexico. I don't think he's completely well rounded 1183 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,439 Speaker 2: and a true title contender, but I think he's gonna 1184 00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 2: get close this year. Division not deep. I think he's 1185 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,320 Speaker 2: got big power, He's gonna figure out how to iron 1186 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,160 Speaker 2: it out, So that's the direction I'm going. Luke already 1187 00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:54,359 Speaker 2: gave his Bowl prediction for middleweight. Mine is this Attu 1188 00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:57,719 Speaker 2: Sonja Whitaker three will happen this year, but it won't 1189 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:00,239 Speaker 2: be at middleweight. It'll be at two oh five. You 1190 00:52:00,360 --> 00:52:03,680 Speaker 2: retweeted it, Whitniker's talking about going to light heavyweight? Are 1191 00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:05,279 Speaker 2: we gonna see him fight John Jones or what? 1192 00:52:06,239 --> 00:52:10,279 Speaker 4: Whittaker Jones becomes more plausible by the day, bitches, by 1193 00:52:10,360 --> 00:52:10,839 Speaker 4: the day. 1194 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 2: Well gotta Luke, there was something bold here. As I 1195 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 2: let Reggie out. 1196 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 5: My bold prediction for middleweight is that it was the 1197 00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 5: same as Luke's pretty much. Tamaya doesn't fight until October, 1198 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:24,280 Speaker 5: so yes. 1199 00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,320 Speaker 7: Only once this year, but I know he was in Chicago, 1200 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 7: but I still weirdly feel like there's always like lingering 1201 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:31,719 Speaker 7: visa issues with him, and I could see them just 1202 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:35,240 Speaker 7: holding out for our review numbered event, whatever you want. 1203 00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:35,480 Speaker 6: To call it. 1204 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:38,600 Speaker 5: So he doesn't fight till October remains the champ. Continues 1205 00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:39,920 Speaker 5: his trend to fighting once a year. I think it's 1206 00:52:39,920 --> 00:52:41,920 Speaker 5: been like three four straight years. It just once a year. 1207 00:52:42,000 --> 00:52:44,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, he loves doing that. We really need him to 1208 00:52:44,120 --> 00:52:46,320 Speaker 2: be active and to dominate this division. Let's go to 1209 00:52:46,400 --> 00:52:49,520 Speaker 2: light heavyweight, which hasn't been the deepest, hasn't been great. 1210 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:52,800 Speaker 2: My bold prediction last year was that the poets on 1211 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:58,839 Speaker 2: Attasania trilogy would take place at two o five. There 1212 00:52:58,920 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 2: wasn't a need to it. LT. You predicted that Poeton 1213 00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 2: would vacate, moved a heavyweight and fight either John Jones 1214 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:06,879 Speaker 2: or Aspiral. I think you were just a year off. 1215 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:10,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, it seems like it's gonna happen, but I was 1216 00:53:10,520 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 4: I was too soon for the truth. 1217 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:12,359 Speaker 1: BC. 1218 00:53:12,800 --> 00:53:16,560 Speaker 2: There you go, Lil did not produce a prediction according 1219 00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 2: to our records. Is that true. 1220 00:53:18,120 --> 00:53:19,680 Speaker 6: I think we were just running out of time and 1221 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:20,759 Speaker 6: you guys kind of just moved back. 1222 00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 2: That happens. Yeah, all right, let's go to who will 1223 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 2: be the champion to end this year? Luke Thomas? Who 1224 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 2: you got to be. 1225 00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 4: The champion at the end of this year? BC, I 1226 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 4: feel like it's gonna be the guy, as you indicated, 1227 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:34,120 Speaker 4: meet the new boss name as the old boss. I 1228 00:53:34,120 --> 00:53:36,480 Speaker 4: think it's gonna be Mega Mann Caliev. Obviously he got 1229 00:53:36,520 --> 00:53:39,000 Speaker 4: run over in that fight with Poeton, but I feel 1230 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:41,600 Speaker 4: like Poton won. I mean, if if my prediction was 1231 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:43,640 Speaker 4: wrong last year, I do feel like it's gonna be 1232 00:53:43,680 --> 00:53:45,799 Speaker 4: right this year. Like Poton does seem like he's gonna 1233 00:53:45,800 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 4: try and move up and BC try and get that 1234 00:53:47,680 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 4: third UFC title, which would be insane and amazing in 1235 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:51,680 Speaker 4: the whole nine yards in any case. 1236 00:53:51,719 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 1: B see. 1237 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 4: For that reason, I still think on Calias the most 1238 00:53:55,680 --> 00:53:58,440 Speaker 4: well rounded guy, and I when I say well round it, 1239 00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:00,520 Speaker 4: I don't just mean the offensive tools, I mean defensive 1240 00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:03,759 Speaker 4: responsibility as well. And so for that reason, I kind 1241 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:05,880 Speaker 4: of feel like he might. In the you know, and again, 1242 00:54:06,000 --> 00:54:09,200 Speaker 4: in the absence of John Jones, Cormier was clearly the guy. 1243 00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:11,200 Speaker 1: It kind of feels a little bit like that to me. 1244 00:54:11,239 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 1: I guess we'll. 1245 00:54:11,640 --> 00:54:14,520 Speaker 2: See Long Island Luke went the same direction of you. 1246 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:17,840 Speaker 2: Big Ank will regain the title. My prediction is different 1247 00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:19,959 Speaker 2: and it ties into my Bowl prediction, and it goes 1248 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:23,360 Speaker 2: like this. I think Pererra will vacate the title, and 1249 00:54:23,400 --> 00:54:25,800 Speaker 2: I think the viacant title bout will be Uncliah versus 1250 00:54:25,840 --> 00:54:29,080 Speaker 2: Yeri Prohatska only. I think the Big Ank will be 1251 00:54:29,120 --> 00:54:32,000 Speaker 2: the big Donk and lose the title via complete donkery 1252 00:54:32,320 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 2: as YEARI lures him into one of those sloppys fights 1253 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:39,400 Speaker 2: and finishes him with something spectacular. I think Perhatza gets 1254 00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:42,040 Speaker 2: back to the top of the ladder in this division. 1255 00:54:42,200 --> 00:54:45,080 Speaker 2: He doesn't cut to middleweight. He's got a new baby. 1256 00:54:45,120 --> 00:54:47,879 Speaker 2: He's ready to go. He's cutting balloons with swords. I'm 1257 00:54:47,880 --> 00:54:48,359 Speaker 2: going with. 1258 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,400 Speaker 1: Yeerie right now, let's go for this. 1259 00:54:50,600 --> 00:54:53,440 Speaker 2: Let's go for this, Let's go for breakthrough fighter of 1260 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:54,359 Speaker 2: the year. Who do he got? LT? 1261 00:54:55,200 --> 00:54:57,200 Speaker 4: Well, this one was really hard and I don't even 1262 00:54:57,239 --> 00:54:59,480 Speaker 4: know what to fucking say about it because this division 1263 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 4: sucks right now. But the guy who really impressed me 1264 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:03,960 Speaker 4: the end of last year again he got some bit 1265 00:55:04,000 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 4: of a peyton top of situation, but I really think 1266 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 4: he's gonna have a big year this coming year is 1267 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:11,400 Speaker 4: Oza Matmerza Khanov. He is it seems like undersized for 1268 00:55:11,520 --> 00:55:14,200 Speaker 4: light heavyweight, but his hand speed and his boxing and 1269 00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:17,520 Speaker 4: his accuracy, they're a fucking problem. And he's you know, 1270 00:55:17,560 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 4: he's reasonably well rounded where he needs to be. He's 1271 00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:21,920 Speaker 4: not the perfect fighter BC, and I don't know if 1272 00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:23,279 Speaker 4: he ever wears a belt. I don't I don't know 1273 00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,279 Speaker 4: if I kind of see him in that regard, but 1274 00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,720 Speaker 4: I think you just you see, you got a bunch 1275 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:31,080 Speaker 4: of big dunks in this inner sorry, in this weight class, 1276 00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:34,160 Speaker 4: and they don't move their head, they're not defensively responsible, 1277 00:55:34,560 --> 00:55:37,279 Speaker 4: and dude, this guy feels on them constantly. I kind 1278 00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:38,759 Speaker 4: of feel like he might be able to take that 1279 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:39,399 Speaker 4: pretty far. 1280 00:55:40,440 --> 00:55:42,320 Speaker 2: I wonder if Jamal Hill has a better chance of 1281 00:55:42,400 --> 00:55:46,480 Speaker 2: regaining the title or scoring you on after what happened. 1282 00:55:46,520 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 2: I don't know my breakthrough fight of the year. I 1283 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 2: gotta go Lithuania here. Modestus Bukowskis is on one of 1284 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:55,359 Speaker 2: those runs the division lack step. I think he can 1285 00:55:55,400 --> 00:55:57,760 Speaker 2: creep up here with a two and oh year along. 1286 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,920 Speaker 2: I don't look which direction are you going on breakthrough 1287 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:01,400 Speaker 2: and then give us your bold prediction. 1288 00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:04,320 Speaker 6: I'm going with Abdual Rochman yak Yayev. 1289 00:56:04,360 --> 00:56:05,759 Speaker 5: I was joking with Luke before I was like, I 1290 00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 5: don't even remember anything about this guy, so I had 1291 00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:10,080 Speaker 5: to quickly look into him. Twenty four years old, eight 1292 00:56:10,440 --> 00:56:12,400 Speaker 5: seven finishes, looked like a Taylor. 1293 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:13,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, dude. 1294 00:56:13,120 --> 00:56:16,120 Speaker 5: Both his UFC debut and his contendent Series fight ended 1295 00:56:16,160 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 5: in thirty seconds. But he's also gone five rounds before, 1296 00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:21,800 Speaker 5: so like he seems like the goods. I'm excited to 1297 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:24,560 Speaker 5: see him. Bold prediction Maybe not that bold, but he 1298 00:56:24,640 --> 00:56:27,719 Speaker 5: is coming off like four losses. Jan Blohovich is gonna 1299 00:56:27,719 --> 00:56:29,359 Speaker 5: win a fight this year, all right. They're gonna give 1300 00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 5: him at least one more fight, and he's gonna win 1301 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:32,920 Speaker 5: the damn thing to. 1302 00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:34,920 Speaker 2: Heavyweight already, please, John, Okay. 1303 00:56:34,719 --> 00:56:36,640 Speaker 6: Regardless, he's gonna win a fight. Let's go, y'all. 1304 00:56:36,640 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 2: All right, I already gave my bold one. Luke, what 1305 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:40,200 Speaker 2: do you got for Poloton in this coming year? 1306 00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:41,160 Speaker 1: All right? 1307 00:56:41,239 --> 00:56:44,879 Speaker 4: Well, you know you gotta play the hits, b See, 1308 00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:46,440 Speaker 4: that's the only game I know how to play. 1309 00:56:47,000 --> 00:56:49,200 Speaker 1: So I think Poloton moves a freaking heavyweight. 1310 00:56:49,400 --> 00:56:54,440 Speaker 4: My only boldest prediction is that it's permanent, like there's 1311 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:56,719 Speaker 4: no going he doesn't go to a five heavyweight too. 1312 00:56:57,000 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 1: It's just just he's gonna finish out at heavyweight and 1313 00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,279 Speaker 1: nice just gonna be that, and that's that's the end 1314 00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:01,560 Speaker 1: of it. 1315 00:57:01,719 --> 00:57:03,399 Speaker 2: I think that's dead on. I think you're gonna win 1316 00:57:03,440 --> 00:57:07,439 Speaker 2: with that. Let's go to the unpredictable heavyweight division, where 1317 00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:11,520 Speaker 2: last year Luke Thomas predicted, with or without a John 1318 00:57:11,600 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 2: Jones fight, Tom Aspinall will end the year as champion. 1319 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:18,280 Speaker 2: You never predicted he would go blind, but well done. 1320 00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 4: Luke didn't get the vision part right, but I got 1321 00:57:20,920 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 4: the rest of it. So I just felt like, you 1322 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,439 Speaker 4: know what, he kind of skated at the end, they're 1323 00:57:26,600 --> 00:57:28,120 Speaker 4: a little better for being honest. 1324 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 1: But again by hooker bout crook, it came through. 1325 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:33,600 Speaker 2: I predicted that Francis and Ghana would fight Vedem Nemkov 1326 00:57:33,680 --> 00:57:37,120 Speaker 2: in the PFL. That did not happen, but it it might. Yeah, 1327 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:41,000 Speaker 2: we'll see Long Island, Luke said, we'll get aspinall Jones 1328 00:57:41,040 --> 00:57:43,840 Speaker 2: at some point. We should have. We should have, but uh, 1329 00:57:44,240 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 2: it didn't happen. Here let's go to prevyweight predictions for 1330 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:51,720 Speaker 2: the new champion Long Island. Luke, you're going tom aspinall 1331 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:53,600 Speaker 2: you believe he's gonna end the year, But how many 1332 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:54,439 Speaker 2: times does he fight? 1333 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:56,320 Speaker 6: Once? 1334 00:57:56,600 --> 00:58:00,240 Speaker 5: Maybe twice, Like I'm thinking, you know, summer, he get 1335 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:03,080 Speaker 5: the gone rematch, and then maybe once more towards the 1336 00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:06,840 Speaker 5: end of the year. But your guys prediction, I feel like, 1337 00:58:06,920 --> 00:58:10,680 Speaker 5: will not be in the title conversation by that second 1338 00:58:10,680 --> 00:58:11,320 Speaker 5: title defense. 1339 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:12,520 Speaker 2: Well we'll get to that in a second. By the way, 1340 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 2: Asphal just said he had surgery on one eye and 1341 00:58:14,840 --> 00:58:16,960 Speaker 2: he's gonna have surgery on the other. I don't know 1342 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 2: how long he'll be out because of that. Luke Thomas, 1343 00:58:19,480 --> 00:58:21,640 Speaker 2: you and I both have the same pick, and it's 1344 00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 2: a bold ass one who's closing the year as heavyweight champion. 1345 00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 1: All right, this is where we go bold. 1346 00:58:28,360 --> 00:58:30,960 Speaker 4: This is where we go bold. I think Gable Stieveson 1347 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 4: might be your champion by the end of the year. 1348 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:36,520 Speaker 4: To be honest with you, I realized he's a controversial 1349 00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:41,120 Speaker 4: figure for a couple of reasons, you know, charges religious 1350 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:44,960 Speaker 4: alleged sexual assault in college, among other things. However, if 1351 00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:48,200 Speaker 4: you just look at the However, but like now, looking 1352 00:58:48,240 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 4: at his athletic life, you see he just seems like 1353 00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:55,640 Speaker 4: a much better athlete than basically everybody. He is an 1354 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 4: Olympic champion, NCAA champion in wrestling. 1355 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:00,000 Speaker 1: He is fast. 1356 00:59:00,200 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 4: You saw what he's already done in the LFA. Like, 1357 00:59:02,960 --> 00:59:05,280 Speaker 4: I don't know that it's true. I mean, could he 1358 00:59:05,480 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 4: could he win the title? Now maybe that's maybe that's 1359 00:59:08,320 --> 00:59:12,000 Speaker 4: a little early, But by the last quarter of the year, 1360 00:59:12,080 --> 00:59:13,000 Speaker 4: I don't know that it will be. 1361 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:14,440 Speaker 1: I think he's gonna steam roll these people. 1362 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 2: Dude. Heavyweight's the only division left where you can kind 1363 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 2: of come in with one dominant skill and potentially not 1364 00:59:20,320 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 2: get exposed. I mean, I know it was a long 1365 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:24,959 Speaker 2: time ago, but we saw brock Lesner do that. He's 1366 00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:28,080 Speaker 2: got some Lesnar sq qualities to him. You're right about 1367 00:59:28,120 --> 00:59:30,960 Speaker 2: the athleticism, you're right about the wrestling. What we don't 1368 00:59:30,960 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 2: know about his chin, stamina, striking ability. We may not 1369 00:59:35,520 --> 00:59:38,200 Speaker 2: have to find out. This division's all over the place. 1370 00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:42,360 Speaker 2: Could he beat Poeton? Maybe? Could he beat espinall? Like 1371 00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:46,200 Speaker 2: if he wrestles him maybe, Like it's possible. I think 1372 00:59:46,200 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 2: he's gonna get a massive push that begins with the 1373 00:59:48,440 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 2: White House, So I don't think it's improbable. Or like, 1374 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:54,000 Speaker 2: let's say he goes to the White House and fights 1375 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:56,640 Speaker 2: a legitimate fighter in his debut, like when they brought 1376 00:59:56,640 --> 00:59:59,000 Speaker 2: in Brock and made him fight Frank Meir, and let's 1377 00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:02,440 Speaker 2: say he wins. You're telling me he doesn't headline MSG 1378 01:00:02,600 --> 01:00:05,840 Speaker 2: for the heavyweight title, Like, it's very very possible because 1379 01:00:06,040 --> 01:00:11,960 Speaker 2: the UFC wants and needs dominant American champions people to market. 1380 01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:14,520 Speaker 2: This is the guy. He's not gonna fight John Jones, 1381 01:00:14,560 --> 01:00:17,600 Speaker 2: who is his mentor? Luke, you put Gable Stevenson as 1382 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 2: your breakthrough fighter at heavyweight. I'm going Walter Walker, who 1383 01:00:21,360 --> 01:00:23,960 Speaker 2: is you know, on a nice run of foot submissions 1384 01:00:24,040 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 2: right here and is breaking through along Island. Look, Mario 1385 01:00:27,440 --> 01:00:29,440 Speaker 2: Pintu can bang, You're a big believer here. 1386 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:31,880 Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, he's undefeated eleven to zero, two and 1387 01:00:31,920 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 5: zero in the UFC. He just beat Jo Nata Denise, 1388 01:00:33,880 --> 01:00:35,920 Speaker 5: which is like actually a really good win. And he 1389 01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,760 Speaker 5: also has gone five rounds before and he's still pretty young. 1390 01:00:38,800 --> 01:00:41,240 Speaker 6: I mean, yeah, heavyweight socks too. Let's just be right, 1391 01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:41,640 Speaker 6: all right. 1392 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 1: Very easy to make a very big, quick splash at heavyweight. 1393 01:00:45,840 --> 01:00:48,200 Speaker 2: My bold prediction at heavyweight is that John Jones will 1394 01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:52,240 Speaker 2: suffer a training injury and never fight again, and it 1395 01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:55,680 Speaker 2: will coincide with the rise of Gable Steveson. John will 1396 01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,439 Speaker 2: become the head coach. He will use this to build 1397 01:00:58,520 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 2: up his legacy as not just the greatest fighter of 1398 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 2: all time, but look, my first guy coached, I took 1399 01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:06,000 Speaker 2: to the top. That's my Bowl prediction. LT. Where are 1400 01:01:06,000 --> 01:01:06,520 Speaker 2: you going here? 1401 01:01:07,240 --> 01:01:10,280 Speaker 1: Just that I don't know who the dance partner's gonna be. 1402 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:12,000 Speaker 4: And I know that there were rumors or at least 1403 01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 4: an Instagram post where it'suggested it wasn't gonna happen. But 1404 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:17,840 Speaker 4: you know, these guys play games on social media Poeton 1405 01:01:17,960 --> 01:01:20,040 Speaker 4: versus some other heavyweight, and I don't know who that's 1406 01:01:20,080 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 4: gonna be. It's gonna headline the White House card. I 1407 01:01:22,840 --> 01:01:26,000 Speaker 4: think that's gonna be your big one at heavyweight obviously, 1408 01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:29,960 Speaker 4: not two five. I think that's gonna be your leading 1409 01:01:30,000 --> 01:01:30,800 Speaker 4: fight on that card. 1410 01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:33,840 Speaker 2: What could throw a wrinkle in our Gable champion plans 1411 01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,600 Speaker 2: are let's say Aspinall's not ready for the White House, 1412 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:40,040 Speaker 2: so they throw gone in their Poeton beats gone maybe 1413 01:01:40,520 --> 01:01:43,240 Speaker 2: or either way, the winner's gotta fight aspinall right if 1414 01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:44,800 Speaker 2: he's ready. So I don't know, I don't know what's 1415 01:01:44,840 --> 01:01:45,240 Speaker 2: gonna happen. 1416 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:46,320 Speaker 1: We'll see, Yeah, we'll see. 1417 01:01:46,600 --> 01:01:49,720 Speaker 2: Long Island Luke believes that rug rug Umar Khan will 1418 01:01:49,760 --> 01:01:52,400 Speaker 2: come to the UFC. I like that prediction, Long Island. 1419 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:52,680 Speaker 6: Thank you. 1420 01:01:52,760 --> 01:01:54,800 Speaker 5: I kind of forgot all about Gable steveson and I 1421 01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:56,560 Speaker 5: was just trying to think of who's a big heavyweight 1422 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:58,400 Speaker 5: splash they could sign, and that was what I came 1423 01:01:58,480 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 5: up with, all right. 1424 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:00,560 Speaker 1: Howse sad it is. 1425 01:02:00,600 --> 01:02:02,600 Speaker 4: It's like if you if you don't consider Gable Steeves, 1426 01:02:02,600 --> 01:02:05,480 Speaker 4: then it's like you know you're you're you're not too 1427 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:06,000 Speaker 4: far from you. 1428 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:08,160 Speaker 1: Guys won't even know this name, but Zuluzino. I mean 1429 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 1: it's just yeah, so it's slim Pickens out. 1430 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 2: There shout it's Alexander Volcoffie still in the mix. You 1431 01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:14,600 Speaker 2: never know what's gonna happen right there. I mean, Sarah 1432 01:02:14,640 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 2: Gan could be the next champion for all we know. 1433 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 2: That's where it's at. Hey, let's go to the women now, 1434 01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,760 Speaker 2: the one, one five, the strawwet. It's a division that 1435 01:02:21,800 --> 01:02:24,920 Speaker 2: has seen better times but now sees Mackenzie Durna is 1436 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:28,240 Speaker 2: the champion of My bold prediction entering this year was 1437 01:02:28,280 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 2: that Mackenzie Durham will go one and one and continue 1438 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:36,120 Speaker 2: to tread water in the division. That's it, Aaron, but nobody, 1439 01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:39,160 Speaker 2: I guess knew that Waylee would move up and open 1440 01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:42,640 Speaker 2: this opportunity. Nocina did not make a prediction. Lt you said, 1441 01:02:42,680 --> 01:02:46,160 Speaker 2: Tatiana Suarez will win the title but won't be able 1442 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:47,920 Speaker 2: to defend it due to long. 1443 01:02:49,320 --> 01:02:52,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't meant to be. It wasn't meant to be. 1444 01:02:52,560 --> 01:02:54,720 Speaker 2: As we look at who ends the year at champion, 1445 01:02:54,840 --> 01:02:57,160 Speaker 2: I can never remember a time that this great division 1446 01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:00,520 Speaker 2: was this poor. All three of us believe that Jean Lee, 1447 01:03:00,840 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 2: after getting completely shut out by Valentina, will come back 1448 01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,480 Speaker 2: down regain the title. At one fifteen, it seems like 1449 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:10,120 Speaker 2: the right play for her in every possible way. 1450 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:13,240 Speaker 4: Luke, Yeah, I mean, and also just you know, when 1451 01:03:13,240 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 4: I was looking at the list, I'm like, Okay, well, 1452 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:18,240 Speaker 4: if she comes back, who's like the biggest threat? 1453 01:03:18,240 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 1: And I don't even know how to answer that, you 1454 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:20,320 Speaker 1: know what I mean? 1455 01:03:21,720 --> 01:03:25,240 Speaker 2: So I might say Tatiana, But but Wayleey destroyed her 1456 01:03:25,240 --> 01:03:25,600 Speaker 2: in their. 1457 01:03:25,480 --> 01:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Fights exactly, so it's like, who would that even be? Uh? So, yeah, 1458 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 1: I just would be shocked if she's not Champion of 1459 01:03:31,440 --> 01:03:31,720 Speaker 1: the Year. 1460 01:03:32,040 --> 01:03:35,160 Speaker 2: All right, breakthrough fighter of the Year at women's strawweight. 1461 01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:37,680 Speaker 2: Long is look going Jillian Robertson, and I gotta give 1462 01:03:37,680 --> 01:03:39,680 Speaker 2: her credit. She's really put on a nice little run 1463 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 2: right here. 1464 01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:42,280 Speaker 4: Honestly, the names that we got on the story of 1465 01:03:42,360 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 4: Long Island, Luke, it's basically your me and your choice 1466 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:45,360 Speaker 4: BC or his. 1467 01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 1: I don't even know who else it would be in 1468 01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:47,200 Speaker 1: this division. 1469 01:03:47,240 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 5: I was gonna say, I think every other weight class, 1470 01:03:50,080 --> 01:03:52,840 Speaker 5: I picked someone not ranked. This was like so hard, 1471 01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:54,480 Speaker 5: So I picked someone who's already ranked. 1472 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:55,120 Speaker 6: But I think. 1473 01:03:55,000 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 5: Jillian will like either be at a title shot or 1474 01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:00,720 Speaker 5: have already gotten one by the end of the year 1475 01:04:00,760 --> 01:04:01,160 Speaker 5: next year. 1476 01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 2: And LT and I both picked Fatima Klimb and client 1477 01:04:04,560 --> 01:04:07,640 Speaker 2: as our breakthrough fighter. She's coming on very good, well 1478 01:04:07,720 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 2: rounded game there. This division not deep. We'll see what happens. 1479 01:04:10,880 --> 01:04:14,280 Speaker 2: Bold prediction, Time lt what's happening in the one one five? 1480 01:04:14,960 --> 01:04:16,200 Speaker 1: At the one one five? 1481 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,800 Speaker 4: Waylee is going to recapture the title BC, but it's 1482 01:04:20,800 --> 01:04:22,560 Speaker 4: going to be more problems because she's only going to 1483 01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:25,480 Speaker 4: fight one time next year, And I don't know how 1484 01:04:25,560 --> 01:04:27,400 Speaker 4: much people will care in the sense that this is 1485 01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:30,200 Speaker 4: not the most loaded division and the movement doesn't really matter. 1486 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:32,760 Speaker 4: But you know, Jehan Whitey has just not been very 1487 01:04:32,760 --> 01:04:36,000 Speaker 4: active for quite some time now, and I expect more 1488 01:04:36,040 --> 01:04:37,520 Speaker 4: of that in this year or not less. 1489 01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,360 Speaker 2: All right, Long Island Luke predicting that Jong Wai Lee 1490 01:04:40,400 --> 01:04:43,280 Speaker 2: will not get the first title shot at McKenzie Dern. 1491 01:04:43,360 --> 01:04:45,480 Speaker 2: So you think they'll put Dern in a position to 1492 01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:47,520 Speaker 2: use her marketability to sell. 1493 01:04:47,360 --> 01:04:49,600 Speaker 5: Another Exactly they'll get her, I don't want to say, 1494 01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,920 Speaker 5: we'll say a Winna Bull fight, so she could arguably 1495 01:04:52,960 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 5: get a title defense, and then you do the way Leaf. 1496 01:04:55,160 --> 01:04:56,680 Speaker 6: You give Wayley some time off. 1497 01:04:56,960 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 2: Like here's a Heboss trilogy for you, go for it. 1498 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:02,080 Speaker 2: Bold prediction. You know I can't make one and not 1499 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 2: involve rosanama Unis. She will decide to cut down to 1500 01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 2: one fifteen for one final time. After Wayley wins the 1501 01:05:10,360 --> 01:05:14,600 Speaker 2: title back, they'll have their trilogy to crown the greatest 1502 01:05:14,800 --> 01:05:18,640 Speaker 2: fighter in women's straweight history. So we'll see if Rose 1503 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 2: can even physically do that. That's my bold ass prediction. 1504 01:05:21,560 --> 01:05:24,440 Speaker 2: Let's go to flyweight, the deepest women's division. Nocia did 1505 01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 2: not make a prediction. Lt You predicted that Valentino will 1506 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:30,120 Speaker 2: not be the champion at the end of the year. 1507 01:05:31,680 --> 01:05:34,640 Speaker 1: Now, I did I predict that she would lose or 1508 01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:35,960 Speaker 1: just that she would not be changing. 1509 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:38,480 Speaker 2: You just said not be. We we've talked about the 1510 01:05:38,480 --> 01:05:40,720 Speaker 2: possibility of her going to thirty five for years. Maybe 1511 01:05:40,720 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 2: that was part of it. I predicted she would close 1512 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:46,360 Speaker 2: the year as champion, and that was true. Let's go 1513 01:05:46,480 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 2: to our championship predictions for the new year. I'm gonna 1514 01:05:49,840 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 2: go manl farroh. Her only loss there was to Valentina. 1515 01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:57,080 Speaker 2: She showed some great toughness to battle back in that one. 1516 01:05:57,280 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 2: She's thirty five, but she's on top of her game 1517 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:02,680 Speaker 2: all that. In her bounce back fight, I think Farrow, 1518 01:06:03,480 --> 01:06:05,840 Speaker 2: which is good. Look it's gonna play into my bold prediction, 1519 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:08,080 Speaker 2: so I'll say it right now. I think Valentino will 1520 01:06:08,120 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 2: vacate the title, not defend it this year. She's gonna 1521 01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:12,960 Speaker 2: move up and fight out one thirty five for the 1522 01:06:12,960 --> 01:06:15,080 Speaker 2: rest of her career, and this will open the door 1523 01:06:15,160 --> 01:06:18,440 Speaker 2: for Manal Farrow to become champion. Luke who ends this 1524 01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 2: year as the flyweight champ. 1525 01:06:20,840 --> 01:06:24,080 Speaker 4: Well, like going back to like men's fifty five, Manuel Torres. 1526 01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 4: I do think he's gonna have a great year, and 1527 01:06:25,440 --> 01:06:27,080 Speaker 4: I feel pretty good about that. I feel like there's 1528 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:29,320 Speaker 4: good evidence for that, and I have a strong feeling 1529 01:06:29,400 --> 01:06:30,760 Speaker 4: this one. I don't, man, I just don't know what 1530 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:33,360 Speaker 4: to say, Like this division kind of sucks. I went 1531 01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,120 Speaker 4: in to Talia Silva. I know she you know, I 1532 01:06:35,160 --> 01:06:37,520 Speaker 4: think she felt what just one time last year. She 1533 01:06:37,560 --> 01:06:40,000 Speaker 4: did look good for the most part. She does seem 1534 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:42,560 Speaker 4: like a you know, a credible challenge to the title. 1535 01:06:43,680 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1536 01:06:44,720 --> 01:06:46,160 Speaker 4: I just kind of went with her on this one 1537 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:47,919 Speaker 4: because I didn't want the same pick as you, and 1538 01:06:48,240 --> 01:06:49,480 Speaker 4: it seems like it's plausible here. 1539 01:06:49,600 --> 01:06:51,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems like you put a lot of you know, 1540 01:06:51,360 --> 01:06:53,200 Speaker 2: thought and belief behind it. You're like, I just threw 1541 01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:53,840 Speaker 2: it up in the air. 1542 01:06:54,000 --> 01:06:55,880 Speaker 1: Well, dude, Like I mean the Fuerreau one. 1543 01:06:55,920 --> 01:06:57,600 Speaker 4: Like, I kind of believe in her, but at the 1544 01:06:57,640 --> 01:06:59,680 Speaker 4: same time, her game is limited and she's kind of aging. 1545 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:02,560 Speaker 4: Gave the who's a good athlete, and Silva is a 1546 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:04,880 Speaker 4: little bit more offensively active, So I mean, you know, 1547 01:07:05,000 --> 01:07:06,680 Speaker 4: there's reasons to think that you can. 1548 01:07:06,840 --> 01:07:08,959 Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, division sucks all right. 1549 01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,000 Speaker 2: Now, Civa, you're staying with chef Chenko, which I think 1550 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:13,520 Speaker 2: is possible. So do you believe that the one thirty 1551 01:07:13,520 --> 01:07:15,440 Speaker 2: five opportunity will not open for her? 1552 01:07:15,960 --> 01:07:18,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, because I think they run that fight back the 1553 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:21,880 Speaker 5: Amanda Caela fight no matter what happens, and that ties 1554 01:07:21,920 --> 01:07:22,320 Speaker 5: that up. 1555 01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:25,080 Speaker 6: I think val probably fights Natalia, Silva. 1556 01:07:24,760 --> 01:07:26,680 Speaker 5: Beats her, and then I think she either gets like 1557 01:07:26,720 --> 01:07:29,640 Speaker 5: a Macy Barber or an Aaron Blanchefield to close the year, 1558 01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:32,040 Speaker 5: and those are two title defenses for main shit. 1559 01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:34,480 Speaker 2: Very well could happen. Obviously. My bull prediction was that 1560 01:07:34,520 --> 01:07:38,200 Speaker 2: she moves up to fight the winner of Kayla versus Amanda, 1561 01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:41,479 Speaker 2: which is either way it's a huge fight, breakthrough fighter 1562 01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:43,760 Speaker 2: of the year, LT and I both go and Macy Barber, 1563 01:07:43,800 --> 01:07:46,440 Speaker 2: who bounce back had a tough fight one. It seems 1564 01:07:46,480 --> 01:07:49,000 Speaker 2: to be healthy, is on a great winning streak overall. 1565 01:07:49,040 --> 01:07:51,440 Speaker 2: That's a great pick. No see a friend of the program, 1566 01:07:51,560 --> 01:07:53,320 Speaker 2: Veronica Hardy gonna make a run here? 1567 01:07:53,920 --> 01:07:54,520 Speaker 6: Yeah? Hell yeah? 1568 01:07:54,560 --> 01:07:56,800 Speaker 5: I mean, did she have that nice little resurgence where 1569 01:07:56,800 --> 01:07:58,919 Speaker 5: she won three in a row then she lost one 1570 01:07:59,000 --> 01:07:59,360 Speaker 5: last year? 1571 01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 6: She only fought it was a win. 1572 01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:04,000 Speaker 5: But I feel like if she's just a little more active, 1573 01:08:04,080 --> 01:08:06,080 Speaker 5: she can totally jump into the top ten. 1574 01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:08,120 Speaker 6: Into the conversation at least. 1575 01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 2: All right, let's stay with no ceda hair. Give me 1576 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:10,960 Speaker 2: a bold prediction for this division. 1577 01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:18,639 Speaker 5: Sorry, All top five fighters six including the champion, will 1578 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,320 Speaker 5: remain in the top five, not in their exact spots, 1579 01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:23,880 Speaker 5: but no one is going to exit that top six. 1580 01:08:24,880 --> 01:08:28,160 Speaker 2: Interesting, Interesting, LT, Where are you going? I'm sure you're 1581 01:08:28,160 --> 01:08:28,920 Speaker 2: excited about this. 1582 01:08:29,760 --> 01:08:31,559 Speaker 4: Shivchenko was going to go to thirty five, and I 1583 01:08:31,600 --> 01:08:34,320 Speaker 4: do think that a potential fight for a title up there, 1584 01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:37,120 Speaker 4: either with Kayla or Amanda is actually one of the 1585 01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,080 Speaker 4: better fighters you can make in women's MMA, for sure, 1586 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:42,600 Speaker 4: But I'm not saying she's automatically going to go She 1587 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:44,720 Speaker 4: might have won more in this division, something like maybe 1588 01:08:44,720 --> 01:08:46,120 Speaker 4: even two more then goes to the end of the year. 1589 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:48,360 Speaker 4: I don't know, but I just feel like she's going 1590 01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 4: to She's going to move to thirty five. 1591 01:08:50,240 --> 01:08:52,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's going to go the same way. 1592 01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:55,240 Speaker 2: Let's go to women's bandam weight where last year I 1593 01:08:55,360 --> 01:08:57,800 Speaker 2: predicted that three different women would hold the title. In 1594 01:08:57,800 --> 01:09:01,400 Speaker 2: twenty twenty five, that was wrong. SEDA predicted that Holly 1595 01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,400 Speaker 2: Holm would headline a UFC event. I believed in that, 1596 01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:06,880 Speaker 2: but that was wrong. She's, by the way, Holly Holm 1597 01:09:06,960 --> 01:09:09,800 Speaker 2: this Saturday fighting for a women's boxing title again on 1598 01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:13,200 Speaker 2: that MVP Amanda Serano card on his own, so shout 1599 01:09:13,240 --> 01:09:16,559 Speaker 2: out to her. LT you predicted that Kayla would become champion. 1600 01:09:16,600 --> 01:09:18,200 Speaker 2: Well done, dude, well done. 1601 01:09:18,760 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 1: That one felt like fairly straightforward. But yeah, there you go. 1602 01:09:22,760 --> 01:09:25,400 Speaker 2: All right? Who will end this year as women's bantam 1603 01:09:25,439 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 2: white champion? That's the real question. Will Chefchenko move up? 1604 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:31,880 Speaker 2: Who wins Kayla versus amandat three twenty four, which is 1605 01:09:31,880 --> 01:09:34,360 Speaker 2: one of the best fights in the sports history. I'm 1606 01:09:34,400 --> 01:09:38,599 Speaker 2: predicting that Kayla Harrison will closed this year as the champion, 1607 01:09:38,760 --> 01:09:40,559 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna play it once again right into my 1608 01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:45,240 Speaker 2: bold prediction. Not only will Kayla Harrison defeat Amanda Newness 1609 01:09:45,280 --> 01:09:49,800 Speaker 2: and Valentina Chefchenko this year. She will end the year 1610 01:09:49,840 --> 01:09:54,040 Speaker 2: with the UFC broadcasters hyping her as the new greatest 1611 01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:58,080 Speaker 2: female fighter of all time and me trying to set 1612 01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:00,720 Speaker 2: up a fight against Cyborg to cement although I don't 1613 01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:03,960 Speaker 2: have that power. So that's my boldness and my pick 1614 01:10:03,960 --> 01:10:06,240 Speaker 2: on champion Luke who ends this year as the champ 1615 01:10:06,280 --> 01:10:06,879 Speaker 2: at thirty. 1616 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:08,600 Speaker 4: Five, that is that is very bold. I'm gonna go 1617 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:11,960 Speaker 4: the opposite direction. I'm gonna say it's Chefchenko. I think 1618 01:10:12,000 --> 01:10:14,400 Speaker 4: she moves to thirty five and BC if it ends 1619 01:10:14,479 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 4: up being nonas in a third fight, I think she 1620 01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 4: might have her number at this point. Although you know, 1621 01:10:18,800 --> 01:10:22,040 Speaker 4: certainly Schifchenko was older too and in some ways less dynamic. 1622 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:25,599 Speaker 4: But I feel like she just doesn't mind grinding out 1623 01:10:25,640 --> 01:10:28,000 Speaker 4: slow winds if she has to, and she knows how 1624 01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:29,960 Speaker 4: to do it. She keeps herself safe, she doesn't take 1625 01:10:29,960 --> 01:10:33,200 Speaker 4: big punches for the most part. I think she might 1626 01:10:33,240 --> 01:10:35,240 Speaker 4: be quite formidable for some of these ladies. And again, 1627 01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:38,200 Speaker 4: like you know with Kayla Harrison, her if she can 1628 01:10:38,240 --> 01:10:40,799 Speaker 4: get into the clinch with you, yeah, it's it's it's 1629 01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:45,080 Speaker 4: it's trouble, but you know, Chefchenko's gonna be quicker, gonna 1630 01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:46,759 Speaker 4: be lighter on her feet, able to keep distance. 1631 01:10:47,400 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 1: Am I get a takedown of her own? I don't know. 1632 01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:51,559 Speaker 1: You know, I'm gonna go bold b C. I'm gonna 1633 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:53,120 Speaker 1: say Chefchenko, no Cina. 1634 01:10:53,200 --> 01:10:55,559 Speaker 2: Your pick on who ends the years champion does kind 1635 01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,640 Speaker 2: of play into your bold prediction? Where are you going here? 1636 01:10:57,720 --> 01:10:57,880 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1637 01:10:57,960 --> 01:11:00,960 Speaker 5: So my bold prediction is that Kayla and Amanda are 1638 01:11:01,000 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 5: both going to retire at some point in twenty twenty six. Now, 1639 01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:06,280 Speaker 5: I think one of them is going to go two 1640 01:11:06,320 --> 01:11:08,000 Speaker 5: and zero against the other. I don't know which one 1641 01:11:08,040 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 5: it's gonna be, but it's going to force them both 1642 01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:12,920 Speaker 5: to eventually just go. I won both I have nothing 1643 01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 5: left and the other one who lost both go. Why 1644 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:17,200 Speaker 5: am I still doing this? Whether it's the weight cut, 1645 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:19,599 Speaker 5: whether it's the age whatever. So I think the title 1646 01:11:19,640 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 5: will be vacated. I don't think the division will cease 1647 01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:25,080 Speaker 5: to exist. I think they'll have like a you know, 1648 01:11:25,160 --> 01:11:27,880 Speaker 5: and what am I looking for? A vacant title fight 1649 01:11:27,960 --> 01:11:30,680 Speaker 5: booked in early twenty twenty seven or something, but at 1650 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:33,800 Speaker 5: the end of twenty twenty six, no UFC Women's band 1651 01:11:33,800 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 5: and weight champion. 1652 01:11:34,680 --> 01:11:37,600 Speaker 2: All right, and lt your bull prediction was that Chefchenko 1653 01:11:37,880 --> 01:11:39,480 Speaker 2: has the trilogy with newness. 1654 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:41,479 Speaker 4: Yes, I think that's the one that might be more 1655 01:11:41,600 --> 01:11:44,559 Speaker 4: likely of the two. Or she may just end up 1656 01:11:44,560 --> 01:11:46,800 Speaker 4: getting it. I don't know, but you know, one way 1657 01:11:46,840 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 4: or the other, I think that that is a great possibility. 1658 01:11:50,080 --> 01:11:52,040 Speaker 2: And you put that she gets revenge, so she gets 1659 01:11:52,120 --> 01:11:53,280 Speaker 2: the win value. 1660 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:55,599 Speaker 4: Right, yeah, right, She's played revenge in the first one 1661 01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:58,559 Speaker 4: before it ended. She arguably got it in the second. 1662 01:11:58,600 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 4: I don't know if she I don't know if she messed. 1663 01:12:00,120 --> 01:12:00,759 Speaker 1: Is it for a third? 1664 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:03,840 Speaker 2: Could I really wish that the UFC would sign both 1665 01:12:03,880 --> 01:12:07,000 Speaker 2: Cyborg and Pacheco and then we could have these five 1666 01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:09,880 Speaker 2: women in the same division. And I know Pacheco's not 1667 01:12:09,920 --> 01:12:12,519 Speaker 2: in this discussion, but the other four could have a 1668 01:12:12,600 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 2: claim for go. If they kind of run the table, 1669 01:12:15,320 --> 01:12:17,680 Speaker 2: it would allow it to happen. My breakthrough fight of 1670 01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 2: the year will be Larisa Pacheco in my opinion. Now, look, 1671 01:12:20,600 --> 01:12:22,760 Speaker 2: she has not fought at bantam weight since that short 1672 01:12:22,760 --> 01:12:25,479 Speaker 2: lived run in the UFC in twenty seventeen. She's fought 1673 01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:29,040 Speaker 2: at featherweight and lightweight. But the desperate plea she made 1674 01:12:29,080 --> 01:12:31,360 Speaker 2: on Twitter for Dana White to sign her. Would tell 1675 01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:34,000 Speaker 2: me that she could follow Kayla's lead trim down the 1676 01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:36,280 Speaker 2: weight because it's the only place that can employ her 1677 01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:38,800 Speaker 2: at this level. So I think that happens. Both of 1678 01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 2: you guys, though, are picking one? Be a mesquita? 1679 01:12:43,160 --> 01:12:46,560 Speaker 4: Be a Mosquita is excellent. She's her style is translating 1680 01:12:46,720 --> 01:12:49,519 Speaker 4: very well to MMA. She's got some stubs, she's got 1681 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:52,519 Speaker 4: some ground and pounds, she's got physical style. I think 1682 01:12:52,560 --> 01:12:55,120 Speaker 4: she's gonna have a great Tway twenty six, and I'm 1683 01:12:55,120 --> 01:12:56,599 Speaker 4: sure Lil agrees. 1684 01:12:57,040 --> 01:12:59,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, she's marketable too, if you know what I mean. 1685 01:13:02,240 --> 01:13:05,760 Speaker 4: Heybc BC, I went to a strip club that had 1686 01:13:05,760 --> 01:13:07,240 Speaker 4: a bunch of marketable women. 1687 01:13:06,960 --> 01:13:07,880 Speaker 1: In there, if you know what I mean. 1688 01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:11,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, future waitresses, just like the Strawway Division. All right, 1689 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:16,519 Speaker 2: our women's featherweight picks, there's no such thing. Let's go 1690 01:13:16,600 --> 01:13:20,360 Speaker 2: to our awards in MMA to close out the year. 1691 01:13:20,720 --> 01:13:24,559 Speaker 2: First category is Event of the Year. Your nominees are 1692 01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:30,559 Speaker 2: UFC three eleven, UFC three seventeen, UFC three twenty three, 1693 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:34,760 Speaker 2: and the UFC Fight Night Paris card, with the main 1694 01:13:34,800 --> 01:13:41,280 Speaker 2: event involving naserdine Imeovov against Kyle Bohalio and the winner 1695 01:13:41,479 --> 01:13:44,960 Speaker 2: is on voting done by two Luke's BC. And if 1696 01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:47,160 Speaker 2: we needed Mikey or Matt Snyder, they could have broken 1697 01:13:47,160 --> 01:13:53,480 Speaker 2: the tie. Here's the results. UFC three twenty two November 1698 01:13:53,600 --> 01:13:58,920 Speaker 2: Madison Square Garden, headlined by Islam Mahachev defeating Jack Della Maddalena. 1699 01:13:59,240 --> 01:14:02,320 Speaker 2: You had Valin Tina versus way Lee and the Comaine, 1700 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:05,080 Speaker 2: and then you had that four or five straight run 1701 01:14:05,400 --> 01:14:08,680 Speaker 2: of big time KOs. Yeah, Dylan Danis getting beat up 1702 01:14:08,680 --> 01:14:11,080 Speaker 2: in the crowd. I think that's the right pick here. 1703 01:14:11,160 --> 01:14:13,640 Speaker 2: But Luke, Luke, but no Cina. You had this on 1704 01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:16,599 Speaker 2: your ballad as number two? Can you argue against three 1705 01:14:16,640 --> 01:14:17,680 Speaker 2: twenty two here as the pick. 1706 01:14:18,960 --> 01:14:21,519 Speaker 5: I just remember you saying to me BC, if you 1707 01:14:21,520 --> 01:14:23,920 Speaker 5: guys remember I was camping for three seventeen. I was 1708 01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:25,840 Speaker 5: super pissed about it. I barely got to watch it. 1709 01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:27,599 Speaker 5: I didn't get to watch any of it live. Really, 1710 01:14:27,640 --> 01:14:29,320 Speaker 5: I had to watch it all the next day. You 1711 01:14:29,439 --> 01:14:31,400 Speaker 5: told me you were like, it made me a fan 1712 01:14:31,479 --> 01:14:34,400 Speaker 5: of the sport again. Man, that's the UFC, that sort. 1713 01:14:34,800 --> 01:14:36,920 Speaker 5: And I kept thinking of that, and I was like, damn. 1714 01:14:36,920 --> 01:14:38,840 Speaker 5: And even when I was watching it the next day 1715 01:14:38,880 --> 01:14:41,240 Speaker 5: which always takes a little like I. 1716 01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:42,600 Speaker 6: Don't know, pizzazz out of it. 1717 01:14:42,680 --> 01:14:45,000 Speaker 5: I was like, damn, this is still actually like really 1718 01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:48,200 Speaker 5: fucking entertaining, even like kind of knowing what already happened. 1719 01:14:49,680 --> 01:14:52,200 Speaker 5: Three twenty two, I was at but I was backstage 1720 01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:54,040 Speaker 5: most of the time. That might have taken a little 1721 01:14:54,080 --> 01:14:55,559 Speaker 5: of the shinaway for I. 1722 01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:57,599 Speaker 2: Was front row for the first time in like four years. Yeah, 1723 01:14:57,800 --> 01:14:58,559 Speaker 2: played a part. 1724 01:14:58,400 --> 01:14:58,840 Speaker 1: In I know. 1725 01:14:59,160 --> 01:15:01,120 Speaker 5: We did have like four there were straight knockouts in 1726 01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:05,679 Speaker 5: a row between like bow Nickel, BSD pratas in Morals Pratiest. 1727 01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:09,200 Speaker 2: Then you had Islam and Valentino looking historically dominant. 1728 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:10,400 Speaker 6: Yet it was my number two. 1729 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:12,320 Speaker 5: And I want to give a shout out to UFC Paris, 1730 01:15:12,320 --> 01:15:15,120 Speaker 5: which people probably don't remember, but it tied the record 1731 01:15:15,200 --> 01:15:18,200 Speaker 5: for most knockouts on a card. There was like nine knockouts, 1732 01:15:18,240 --> 01:15:19,799 Speaker 5: so it was a pretty entertaining card. 1733 01:15:20,479 --> 01:15:23,600 Speaker 2: More finishes than me watching Wild Things on VHS in 1734 01:15:23,640 --> 01:15:27,439 Speaker 2: the nineties for sure. And UFC three seventeen, for those wondering, 1735 01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:30,720 Speaker 2: was the International Fight Week card headlined by Ilia Tottoria 1736 01:15:30,840 --> 01:15:35,479 Speaker 2: against Olivera. You had Josh Van against Roy vall On there, 1737 01:15:35,520 --> 01:15:38,639 Speaker 2: you had Pantosia KKF very good card, and I think 1738 01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:41,639 Speaker 2: three to eleven was very good too, great band, pretty 1739 01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:44,120 Speaker 2: damn good card. I know the disappointment in not getting 1740 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:47,520 Speaker 2: Armin in the main event we had Moikano instead diluted 1741 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:51,840 Speaker 2: it with that. Umar versus Morob Colemane was absolutely fantastic. 1742 01:15:51,880 --> 01:15:54,719 Speaker 2: Big time knockouts up and down. Let's speak in to knockouts. 1743 01:15:54,840 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 2: Let's go to Knockout of the Year where your nominees 1744 01:15:58,600 --> 01:16:06,840 Speaker 2: are Toporia, Olivera, Almeida, al Hassen, Quillin, Sack Killed, Nosrat, 1745 01:16:06,920 --> 01:16:12,120 Speaker 2: Hot Pressed, Laron Murphy's spinning shit against Aaron Pico, Hoofy 1746 01:16:12,400 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 2: versus Green, and You versus Sarahee, and the winner is 1747 01:16:20,439 --> 01:16:25,200 Speaker 2: Mauricio Hoofy's spinning back kick over King Green Shades of 1748 01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:29,520 Speaker 2: Terry Edam getting sent to Hell narrowly wins the decision. 1749 01:16:30,000 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 2: Luke Thomas, you voted for this, why well? 1750 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:40,400 Speaker 4: I try to take it to consideration the context of 1751 01:16:40,400 --> 01:16:43,400 Speaker 4: about itself as well as the skill level of both opponents, 1752 01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:46,160 Speaker 4: and I think there are some other choices you can 1753 01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:48,720 Speaker 4: make depending on how you value something like that in 1754 01:16:48,760 --> 01:16:52,599 Speaker 4: this year. But this was on a on a fairly 1755 01:16:52,640 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 4: big platform in terms of the card, it wasn't an 1756 01:16:54,960 --> 01:16:56,680 Speaker 4: apex fight, But I'm trying to point out, yeah, you 1757 01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:59,320 Speaker 4: have seen it had yep, it had big. It had 1758 01:16:59,840 --> 01:17:02,080 Speaker 4: no names, I'll say that, and then some exciting up 1759 01:17:02,080 --> 01:17:04,800 Speaker 4: and coming names sort of mixed together. But really what 1760 01:17:05,120 --> 01:17:07,080 Speaker 4: took this KO to the next level is just how 1761 01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:10,439 Speaker 4: fucking acrobatic it was. And also in the in the 1762 01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:12,559 Speaker 4: moments leading up to the KO. In the earlier parts 1763 01:17:12,560 --> 01:17:15,200 Speaker 4: of the fight, Hoofy was kind of styling on him 1764 01:17:15,320 --> 01:17:18,200 Speaker 4: to begin with, like it felt like almost like a 1765 01:17:18,320 --> 01:17:21,719 Speaker 4: dance number or something. It was just really a guy 1766 01:17:21,840 --> 01:17:26,200 Speaker 4: in complete flow state with a devastating KO. You know 1767 01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:30,439 Speaker 4: of a known puncher and a very respected veteran ko's 1768 01:17:30,479 --> 01:17:32,320 Speaker 4: do come better, but not much better than that. It 1769 01:17:32,360 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 4: was very very good. 1770 01:17:33,720 --> 01:17:35,200 Speaker 2: I think it was a close vote. I ended up 1771 01:17:35,240 --> 01:17:37,280 Speaker 2: having that pick as my third. I have no problem 1772 01:17:37,320 --> 01:17:39,479 Speaker 2: with it winning. My Number one was Lauren Murphy against 1773 01:17:39,479 --> 01:17:43,559 Speaker 2: Aaron Pico. With the combination of Pico we thought could 1774 01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:45,479 Speaker 2: end up like getting a title shot with a win, 1775 01:17:45,960 --> 01:17:48,120 Speaker 2: and he walked into something that we just never expected 1776 01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:51,720 Speaker 2: from Laron Murphy.

Dude, I gotta go Fluffy Hernandez 1830 01:20:13,479 --> 01:20:16,240 Speaker 2: against Roman Delitze. And it's not even because the war 1831 01:20:16,400 --> 01:20:19,480 Speaker 2: Naked choke was so beautiful to me, it's the context 1832 01:20:19,560 --> 01:20:22,800 Speaker 2: of the one sided ass kicking, the fact that he 1833 01:20:22,960 --> 01:20:25,720 Speaker 2: just like dragged him, dropped him to the ground like 1834 01:20:25,800 --> 01:20:29,840 Speaker 2: John Jones dropping Machiita face first, and just like Ragdald 1835 01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,360 Speaker 2: like like you're not even on my level. And Delite 1836 01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:36,439 Speaker 2: is a badass for him to just completely beat him 1837 01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:39,040 Speaker 2: down and then just choke him out and drop him. 1838 01:20:39,439 --> 01:20:41,960 Speaker 2: I loved it.

I love the 1839 01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:44,800 Speaker 2: impact of the silver one because everybody was kind of 1840 01:20:44,840 --> 01:20:47,160 Speaker 2: looking for Bryce Mitchell to get served, and that Ninja 1841 01:20:47,200 --> 01:20:49,280 Speaker 2: choke was beautiful. He put him out. It was a 1842 01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:52,000 Speaker 2: very big moment, and I just love the technique, even 1843 01:20:52,040 --> 01:20:53,680 Speaker 2: though I'm not a ground guy. Luke, you know this 1844 01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:59,520 Speaker 2: right of Mahchev's problem against Moi Kano was just efficient, brilliant, 1845 01:20:59,760 --> 01:21:02,120 Speaker 2: one wonderful long Islan Luke, we missed any here in 1846 01:21:02,200 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 2: terms of crazy. 1847 01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:05,519 Speaker 6: Oh oh, Luke's got something. 1848 01:21:06,600 --> 01:21:09,080 Speaker 4: I don't think it should win, but I do think 1849 01:21:09,080 --> 01:21:12,479 Speaker 4: it's worth mentioning Sean Brady. The mounted guillotine or the 1850 01:21:13,240 --> 01:21:16,000 Speaker 4: from half guard mountain or the top half guard guillotine 1851 01:21:16,640 --> 01:21:21,720 Speaker 4: on Leon Edwards was filthy, highly technical. He dominated that 1852 01:21:21,800 --> 01:21:24,000 Speaker 4: bout that at least deserves honorable mention. 1853 01:21:24,320 --> 01:21:28,679 Speaker 6: Sure, sure, I was gonna bring up the submission itself. 1854 01:21:28,720 --> 01:21:31,160 Speaker 5: You like, don't want to really highlight but Valter Walker 1855 01:21:31,200 --> 01:21:33,400 Speaker 5: with his fourth straight heel hook, I feel like just 1856 01:21:33,640 --> 01:21:35,960 Speaker 5: the fact that he got four straight is fucking wild. 1857 01:21:36,200 --> 01:21:38,280 Speaker 5: And I literally said going into that fourth fight, I 1858 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:40,080 Speaker 5: was like, I don't even care what happened. I'm taking 1859 01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:43,120 Speaker 5: Valter Walker by sub and like the fact bro happened, here's. 1860 01:21:43,000 --> 01:21:44,479 Speaker 4: The problem, Bro, I mean, it's the thing, like like 1861 01:21:44,560 --> 01:21:48,120 Speaker 4: Brady is out here finishing off champions, like, if you're 1862 01:21:48,160 --> 01:21:51,160 Speaker 4: winning four bouts in a row via heel hook, you're 1863 01:21:51,160 --> 01:21:52,120 Speaker 4: fighting dogs. 1864 01:21:52,439 --> 01:21:55,920 Speaker 5: I mean, I say the fact that he's won dog 1865 01:21:56,000 --> 01:21:57,960 Speaker 5: four in a row at heavyweight in the UFC and 1866 01:21:58,080 --> 01:22:00,439 Speaker 5: is still not ranked, or if he is, he's like 1867 01:22:00,520 --> 01:22:01,559 Speaker 5: barely ranked as fun. 1868 01:22:01,720 --> 01:22:04,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's some mackenza teen shit until you step up 1869 01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:06,080 Speaker 2: and then you find out about it. Look, did you 1870 01:22:06,080 --> 01:22:08,360 Speaker 2: see that Walter Walker is gonna be on karate combat 1871 01:22:08,400 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 2: grappling against that guy with no legs? 1872 01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:12,040 Speaker 1: This is a true thing. Yes, Well, the good news 1873 01:22:12,160 --> 01:22:13,800 Speaker 1: is no one's gonna get paid to who cares? 1874 01:22:13,840 --> 01:22:17,000 Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, yeah, that's true.

And your winner is, oh, it's 1882 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:57,200 Speaker 2: the Dana White Contender Series, Week nine. It was Donk 1883 01:22:57,280 --> 01:23:01,400 Speaker 2: versus Donk, but these hungry young guys went after it 1884 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:05,160 Speaker 2: in a rocky movie style. I voted at number one 1885 01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:08,280 Speaker 2: Long Island. Luke had at number two. Luke Thomas, you 1886 01:23:08,400 --> 01:23:11,360 Speaker 2: had a number one. It's rare that something outside of 1887 01:23:11,479 --> 01:23:16,360 Speaker 2: main UFC fair would get this distinction. But these two 1888 01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:17,960 Speaker 2: guys were willing to die in the cage yet. 1889 01:23:18,400 --> 01:23:20,639 Speaker 4: Well, this is also rare for me. I typically don't 1890 01:23:20,680 --> 01:23:22,479 Speaker 4: select fights like this for Fighter of the Year. So 1891 01:23:22,520 --> 01:23:25,200 Speaker 4: for example, the year that Brian stan fought Vanderlie Silva, 1892 01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:27,680 Speaker 4: I think that made a bunch of people's Fight of 1893 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:30,320 Speaker 4: the Year award winner and for me that wasn't the case. 1894 01:23:30,320 --> 01:23:30,720 Speaker 1: It was good. 1895 01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:32,240 Speaker 4: I mean, it was an amazing fighter, you know, not 1896 01:23:32,360 --> 01:23:34,759 Speaker 4: rock Em Soccam was crazy with a dramatic finish. 1897 01:23:34,760 --> 01:23:35,400 Speaker 1: It was great. 1898 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:38,200 Speaker 4: But to me, it's like, if it's rock em sock them, 1899 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:40,840 Speaker 4: it's very, very hard to win that when you've got 1900 01:23:40,840 --> 01:23:43,680 Speaker 4: guys who can have action fights five rounds for much 1901 01:23:43,760 --> 01:23:45,840 Speaker 4: higher stakes against much better guys. Right, So that to 1902 01:23:45,880 --> 01:23:47,400 Speaker 4: me tends to be the way that I go. But 1903 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:50,639 Speaker 4: this one is a little bit different due to dude 1904 01:23:51,040 --> 01:23:53,519 Speaker 4: Luna Martinelli is was you called them both dogs? 1905 01:23:53,560 --> 01:23:54,240 Speaker 1: I don't agree. 1906 01:23:54,439 --> 01:23:58,200 Speaker 4: The Logden actually looks pretty fucking good now. He dunked 1907 01:23:58,240 --> 01:24:00,559 Speaker 4: it up a little bit to fight fire with fire 1908 01:24:00,680 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 4: in this contest. But at the same time, I think 1909 01:24:03,840 --> 01:24:06,080 Speaker 4: he's actually got some real ability. I'm curious to see 1910 01:24:06,120 --> 01:24:08,160 Speaker 4: what he can do in his career. Obviously, that amount 1911 01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:11,439 Speaker 4: of damage that he took was fucking insane. Lunda Martinelli 1912 01:24:11,479 --> 01:24:13,600 Speaker 4: to me is a little bit more Martino. Did I 1913 01:24:13,640 --> 01:24:17,479 Speaker 4: say his name right, yeah, Martinette. Excuse me, Luda Martinetti. 1914 01:24:18,080 --> 01:24:20,640 Speaker 4: He seemed to be scrappier of the two, and it 1915 01:24:20,680 --> 01:24:23,000 Speaker 4: took him to another place. But dude, this is one 1916 01:24:23,080 --> 01:24:27,880 Speaker 4: of the most This was fried Takeyama kind of for 1917 01:24:28,000 --> 01:24:30,680 Speaker 4: fifteen minutes. I mean, I know that's the comparison you're 1918 01:24:30,720 --> 01:24:34,240 Speaker 4: never supposed to make, but this one went on in 1919 01:24:34,280 --> 01:24:37,880 Speaker 4: ways that you thought, ut, surely he can't keep being 1920 01:24:37,960 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 4: this way, and it did, minute after minute after minute, 1921 01:24:42,040 --> 01:24:47,200 Speaker 4: momentum swing after momentum swing, big shot after big shot, bloodied, bruised, battered, 1922 01:24:47,880 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 4: but not in spirit beaten. Oh my god, dude, this 1923 01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:53,920 Speaker 4: fight was in I needed a cigarette when this fight 1924 01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:54,400 Speaker 4: was over. 1925 01:24:54,800 --> 01:24:55,800 Speaker 1: This was incredible. 1926 01:24:56,360 --> 01:24:58,439 Speaker 2: It was It was so I had to rewatch it 1927 01:24:58,439 --> 01:24:59,960 Speaker 2: to make my pick, and I'm like, yeah, I'm not 1928 01:25:00,080 --> 01:25:03,120 Speaker 2: picking against this hard to pick against, though, Josh Van 1929 01:25:03,240 --> 01:25:06,720 Speaker 2: overcoming Brandon Royval because it was a number one contender fight, 1930 01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:08,320 Speaker 2: it was on a pay per view Long Island. Luke, 1931 01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:10,599 Speaker 2: you had that at number one? What'd you love about 1932 01:25:10,640 --> 01:25:11,080 Speaker 2: that one? 1933 01:25:11,360 --> 01:25:13,720 Speaker 6: I was just that was my exact logic, BC. 1934 01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:16,439 Speaker 5: It was more important of a fight, and like, I 1935 01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:19,040 Speaker 5: felt weird picking a Contender series fight number one, as 1936 01:25:19,080 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 5: all action and crazy as that was. But I really 1937 01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:24,639 Speaker 5: want to harp on my number three Esteban Ribovich Elvis Brenner. Dude, 1938 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 5: that was a banger of a fight that was the 1939 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,760 Speaker 5: same card as Chris Duncan Matteosh Round Betski, and I 1940 01:25:29,840 --> 01:25:31,960 Speaker 5: was deciding between which of those two to put on. 1941 01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:34,280 Speaker 5: I ended up looking at the stats. Ribevich Brenner both 1942 01:25:34,280 --> 01:25:36,320 Speaker 5: had like more outputs. I was like, all right, I'll 1943 01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:38,280 Speaker 5: pick that one. I don't even remember which one was which, 1944 01:25:38,439 --> 01:25:41,960 Speaker 5: but both those fights were bangers. Roy Valvan was the 1945 01:25:42,000 --> 01:25:44,439 Speaker 5: only fight I got to watch live on that said 1946 01:25:44,520 --> 01:25:47,640 Speaker 5: Camping Trip International Fight week, so I remember being like, 1947 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 5: holy shit, that was awesome, and people weren't even talking 1948 01:25:50,479 --> 01:25:51,800 Speaker 5: about that at the end of the night, they were 1949 01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:52,759 Speaker 5: talking about Ilias. 1950 01:25:52,760 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 2: So yeah, even though roy valve Van was nasty like, 1951 01:25:56,280 --> 01:25:58,240 Speaker 2: it was technical too, and that's what I kind of like. 1952 01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,320 Speaker 2: I mean, Royval wasn't moving his head, but there was 1953 01:26:00,360 --> 01:26:02,880 Speaker 2: a lot of technical qualities. I want to shout out 1954 01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:07,240 Speaker 2: the first Paul Hughes Usman Normaga metal fight that opened 1955 01:26:07,240 --> 01:26:09,840 Speaker 2: the call, that was in the discussion all year, and 1956 01:26:09,880 --> 01:26:11,599 Speaker 2: even though it only went a round and a half 1957 01:26:11,600 --> 01:26:13,800 Speaker 2: and those fights don't normally make it here. My number 1958 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:16,320 Speaker 2: three pick was Diego Lopez Jan Silva because it was 1959 01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:19,000 Speaker 2: just batshit crazy, dude. It was just back and forth 1960 01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,320 Speaker 2: and Luke. I think another one in that conversation was 1961 01:26:22,360 --> 01:26:25,920 Speaker 2: the Khalil Roundtree Yearie one. The first two rounds were timid, 1962 01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:28,040 Speaker 2: but that third round was my round of the year. 1963 01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:29,200 Speaker 2: It was absolutely insane. 1964 01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:31,559 Speaker 4: Well, Year, he was getting teed off on in those 1965 01:26:31,560 --> 01:26:33,720 Speaker 4: first two rounds. I mean again, he wasn't getting you know, 1966 01:26:33,800 --> 01:26:37,080 Speaker 4: completely mangled, but it wasn't going his way and then 1967 01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:39,599 Speaker 4: he just turned everything up in the third and holy shit, 1968 01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:41,200 Speaker 4: look what happened. But I want to say this for 1969 01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:43,400 Speaker 4: my number two slot, and this is kind of the 1970 01:26:43,439 --> 01:26:47,240 Speaker 4: direction that would more normally go. I think Morob versus 1971 01:26:47,760 --> 01:26:52,160 Speaker 4: Umar is in contention, and for different reasons. This is 1972 01:26:52,160 --> 01:26:54,400 Speaker 4: a case where you had a guy come out and 1973 01:26:54,439 --> 01:26:57,080 Speaker 4: put Morob on his fucking heels a little bit, and 1974 01:26:57,120 --> 01:26:59,000 Speaker 4: Morob had to kind of battle back and battle back. 1975 01:26:59,000 --> 01:27:01,400 Speaker 4: But by the end, remember it was all the drama 1976 01:27:01,439 --> 01:27:03,519 Speaker 4: about him just kind of doing like what Cody Garbran 1977 01:27:03,600 --> 01:27:05,600 Speaker 4: did Dominic Cruz, where he's like doing the robot and 1978 01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:09,520 Speaker 4: styling and pointing and laughing at him, like the theatrics 1979 01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:12,160 Speaker 4: of it and the and the triumphant nature of it. 1980 01:27:12,320 --> 01:27:14,519 Speaker 4: And again we all thought Umar was gonna fucking win. 1981 01:27:14,680 --> 01:27:16,400 Speaker 4: To go back to the predictions that we all made, 1982 01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:17,960 Speaker 4: that dude, that fight ruled. 1983 01:27:17,960 --> 01:27:18,080 Speaker 5: Now. 1984 01:27:18,080 --> 01:27:21,799 Speaker 4: I couldn't pick it because it just wasn't as action obviously, 1985 01:27:21,840 --> 01:27:23,880 Speaker 4: not as action oriented as the one that won. 1986 01:27:23,920 --> 01:27:25,360 Speaker 1: That one that was so over the top. 1987 01:27:25,360 --> 01:27:28,080 Speaker 4: I couldn't It was a technical thriller, Yeah, it was 1988 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:30,400 Speaker 4: that that to me is more of a technical thriller 1989 01:27:30,439 --> 01:27:33,200 Speaker 4: where there's really on the line. I give I give 1990 01:27:33,240 --> 01:27:34,800 Speaker 4: I give both those guys a lot of respect for 1991 01:27:34,840 --> 01:27:35,840 Speaker 4: that fight. That was tremendous. 1992 01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:37,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I loved it. With so many fun fights this year, 1993 01:27:37,920 --> 01:27:41,280 Speaker 2: let's go to female Fighter of the Year across MMA, 1994 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:47,959 Speaker 2: and your nominees are Kayla Harrison, Mackenzie Dern, Fatima Klin Wow, 1995 01:27:48,360 --> 01:27:52,960 Speaker 2: and Valentina chev Chenko. And this winner was unanimous. The 1996 01:27:53,080 --> 01:27:56,320 Speaker 2: winner is chev Chenko. Luke, I actually think if we're 1997 01:27:56,320 --> 01:27:59,360 Speaker 2: gonna put male and female together, that she's the actual 1998 01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:01,800 Speaker 2: fighter of the year year across the board for what 1999 01:28:01,920 --> 01:28:04,559 Speaker 2: she did beating on beaten number one contender man Own 2000 01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:08,519 Speaker 2: Pharaoh and then completely blanking Jong Weeley in a fight 2001 01:28:08,560 --> 01:28:10,240 Speaker 2: that people thought was going to be fifty to fifty 2002 01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:13,400 Speaker 2: shout out to the thirty what eight year old thirty. 2003 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:14,519 Speaker 1: Seven year old Lily seven? 2004 01:28:14,680 --> 01:28:17,360 Speaker 4: I think, come on, I think it's a little much 2005 01:28:17,439 --> 01:28:19,559 Speaker 4: to put her like in that kind of space. 2006 01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:22,000 Speaker 2: But well, just because you hate women doesn't mean the 2007 01:28:22,080 --> 01:28:23,200 Speaker 2: should come into this argument. 2008 01:28:23,720 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 1: No, No, here's the thing. I don't have other opinions 2009 01:28:26,280 --> 01:28:29,360 Speaker 1: out there that evidence that fact. Yeah, I actually I 2010 01:28:29,400 --> 01:28:32,280 Speaker 1: don't do that, But in a fair reading of it, dude, 2011 01:28:32,280 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 1: here this is this is how down the year was 2012 01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:36,000 Speaker 1: correct me for all long Island, Luke, here's one of 2013 01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:38,519 Speaker 1: the things that I really struggled with. How many women 2014 01:28:38,600 --> 01:28:40,919 Speaker 1: even fought three times this year. 2015 01:28:41,040 --> 01:28:44,400 Speaker 5: Very few the tea McCline did, which BC acted surprises. 2016 01:28:44,640 --> 01:28:47,040 Speaker 6: I think, yeah, okay, okay, but there's my point. 2017 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:48,240 Speaker 2: There's levels, come on. 2018 01:28:48,200 --> 01:28:48,760 Speaker 1: But this is my point. 2019 01:28:48,800 --> 01:28:52,080 Speaker 4: There were women who had like good, solid, memorable wins 2020 01:28:52,080 --> 01:28:53,920 Speaker 4: this year, and then you look at the record and 2021 01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:57,960 Speaker 4: they fought once, maybe twice. Three times was almost impossible 2022 01:28:58,000 --> 01:29:01,160 Speaker 4: to find. So it was not a banner year for 2023 01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,839 Speaker 4: the that side of the sport of for just being honest. However, 2024 01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:06,720 Speaker 4: in looking at that side, BC, I don't know who 2025 01:29:06,720 --> 01:29:08,760 Speaker 4: else would be but Valentina chew Cheko. I don't know 2026 01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:11,960 Speaker 4: how who who would else? Kayla had a nice win, 2027 01:29:12,880 --> 01:29:15,240 Speaker 4: but that's it. Like that, this lady had a couple 2028 01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 4: of really good wins, earned that two wins. 2029 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:19,320 Speaker 2: But that's a lower level. 2030 01:29:19,360 --> 01:29:21,639 Speaker 1: That's a lower, much lower level totally. 2031 01:29:21,680 --> 01:29:24,960 Speaker 4: I mean Valentine was defending a title and or fighting 2032 01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:27,080 Speaker 4: pound for pound, people like, yeah, come on. 2033 01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:30,160 Speaker 2: No, indeed, it's a runaway in that regard. But yeah, 2034 01:29:30,160 --> 01:29:32,800 Speaker 2: shout out to Fatima Klein for breaking through. I just 2035 01:29:33,120 --> 01:29:36,000 Speaker 2: I'm always against I remember when Cynthia Calvio had five 2036 01:29:36,040 --> 01:29:37,760 Speaker 2: wins in a year and people were like, she's a 2037 01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:40,320 Speaker 2: Fighter of the Year contender. I'm like, there's levels, okay, 2038 01:29:40,400 --> 01:29:43,639 Speaker 2: Like I'm gonna take champions that are defending twice over that. 2039 01:29:43,880 --> 01:29:45,680 Speaker 2: Let's go to Mail Fighter of the Year. This is 2040 01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:48,840 Speaker 2: gonna be interesting because of what happened to Morob in December. 2041 01:29:49,080 --> 01:29:52,080 Speaker 2: Your nominees for Male Fighter of the Year in twenty 2042 01:29:52,160 --> 01:29:57,519 Speaker 2: twenty five are Marob Devalishvili, Islam Mahachev, Joshua Van and 2043 01:29:57,680 --> 01:30:04,200 Speaker 2: Pyotr Yan and your the winner is Islam Mahachev. But 2044 01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:08,200 Speaker 2: the voting, as you can see, was incredibly close. I 2045 01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:12,559 Speaker 2: went Islam, Long Island, Luke went Morob, not surprisingly as 2046 01:30:12,760 --> 01:30:15,960 Speaker 2: ESPN dot Com did. LT went Islam. Now look for me. 2047 01:30:16,520 --> 01:30:19,920 Speaker 2: I love what Morob did. I love his ambition, but 2048 01:30:20,040 --> 01:30:23,599 Speaker 2: I can't give it to you like what I remember 2049 01:30:23,640 --> 01:30:27,640 Speaker 2: what Conor McGregor, you could make an argument in twenty sixteen, 2050 01:30:27,960 --> 01:30:30,479 Speaker 2: even though he lost to Diez, he came back to 2051 01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:32,160 Speaker 2: avenge the loss in one of the best fights in 2052 01:30:32,200 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 2: company history, and then moved up in wait to knock 2053 01:30:34,600 --> 01:30:37,479 Speaker 2: out Eddie Alvaz to become Champ. Champ in that case, 2054 01:30:37,800 --> 01:30:40,559 Speaker 2: like the Robbie Lawler case you mentioned, you put the 2055 01:30:40,600 --> 01:30:44,120 Speaker 2: loss away from you. Maybe because the loss is so recent. 2056 01:30:44,800 --> 01:30:47,200 Speaker 2: I can't give a guy who just lost Fighter of 2057 01:30:47,280 --> 01:30:50,519 Speaker 2: the Year. I can't do it. That's just me. Also, Islam, 2058 01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:53,519 Speaker 2: although he didn't fight Saryuki and he fought Moikano, he 2059 01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:57,599 Speaker 2: moved up in wait and absolutely dominated. To me, this 2060 01:30:57,680 --> 01:31:00,639 Speaker 2: is a no brainer. But I'm sure you can argue 2061 01:31:00,680 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 2: Morob or is this just a long island thing? Where 2062 01:31:03,320 --> 01:31:04,160 Speaker 2: are you at Nocita? 2063 01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:07,880 Speaker 5: It's probably a long island thing. But I just want 2064 01:31:07,960 --> 01:31:09,720 Speaker 5: to note. I just message you, guys. I've had to 2065 01:31:09,720 --> 01:31:12,559 Speaker 5: pull out this entire episode with a thousand votes, forty 2066 01:31:12,600 --> 01:31:15,120 Speaker 5: four percent of the donks out there thinking Morob's Fighter 2067 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:15,800 Speaker 5: of the Year as well. 2068 01:31:16,040 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 6: He thought he defended his belt three times. That alone. Shit. 2069 01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:21,240 Speaker 5: I feel like going into the Yon fight, we were 2070 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:23,559 Speaker 5: all like, yeah, he's pretty, he's all but solidified it, 2071 01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:26,120 Speaker 5: and then like after the On fight, we're all quick 2072 01:31:26,120 --> 01:31:29,760 Speaker 5: to write him off. Islam, I'm sure moving up double champ, 2073 01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:31,800 Speaker 5: but like, No disrespected JD. I feel like I've been 2074 01:31:31,840 --> 01:31:34,920 Speaker 5: disrespecting JDM all year. No disrespected JDM, but like he 2075 01:31:35,000 --> 01:31:37,519 Speaker 5: never even defended the belt. We might look back at 2076 01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:39,360 Speaker 5: that title reign and be like, ah, he was kind 2077 01:31:39,360 --> 01:31:41,840 Speaker 5: of a flukey transition. Maybe you know, we don't know, 2078 01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:45,160 Speaker 5: and Moikano being the other one. That's where's mo Kano 2079 01:31:45,240 --> 01:31:48,120 Speaker 5: right now? Ten to fifteen range, you know, like Journeymanstada 2080 01:31:48,240 --> 01:31:48,559 Speaker 5: and I. 2081 01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:51,679 Speaker 2: Got you, I got you, I got you, Luke Thomas. 2082 01:31:51,640 --> 01:31:55,559 Speaker 4: Here, here's the problem. Here's the problem. The problem is 2083 01:31:56,800 --> 01:32:00,920 Speaker 4: if you're a pound for pound guy like and not 2084 01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:02,760 Speaker 4: just that, but a guy who at the time of 2085 01:32:02,800 --> 01:32:06,360 Speaker 4: the Yon fight was arguably number one, but he wasn't 2086 01:32:06,360 --> 01:32:08,120 Speaker 4: our number one. But you know, at worst top three, 2087 01:32:08,600 --> 01:32:12,960 Speaker 4: at worst top three, you cannot lose fifty forty five, 2088 01:32:13,000 --> 01:32:15,160 Speaker 4: which you know, I know, I'm some of the scorecards 2089 01:32:15,160 --> 01:32:16,920 Speaker 4: that you know, Morob had two but only one of 2090 01:32:17,040 --> 01:32:18,880 Speaker 4: the ones. But you could score fifty forty five final 2091 01:32:18,960 --> 01:32:22,360 Speaker 4: let's just say forty nine, forty forty four, whatever the 2092 01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:25,040 Speaker 4: fucking numbers. I can't forty nine forty six, whatever the 2093 01:32:25,080 --> 01:32:29,479 Speaker 4: fucking number is. You can't lose to a guy that 2094 01:32:29,680 --> 01:32:32,960 Speaker 4: thoroughly who's not even ranked pound for pound at the 2095 01:32:33,000 --> 01:32:35,920 Speaker 4: time of the loss, and then expect to win awards 2096 01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 4: at the end of the year. 2097 01:32:36,840 --> 01:32:37,559 Speaker 1: That's my belief. 2098 01:32:37,600 --> 01:32:39,400 Speaker 4: My belief is if you're a pound for pound guy, 2099 01:32:39,680 --> 01:32:41,639 Speaker 4: of course you're gonna win. Of course, you're gonna lose, 2100 01:32:42,240 --> 01:32:45,000 Speaker 4: but it needs to be better than that to then 2101 01:32:45,040 --> 01:32:47,559 Speaker 4: be like, oh, this guy is also the guy who 2102 01:32:47,600 --> 01:32:49,559 Speaker 4: was the best guy this year. It can't be both 2103 01:32:49,600 --> 01:32:53,280 Speaker 4: to me, and I recognize that Yan is It's not 2104 01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:55,559 Speaker 4: an argument that Yan is a scrub, far from at 2105 01:32:55,560 --> 01:32:57,400 Speaker 4: former champion. Look what he did, it was one of 2106 01:32:57,400 --> 01:32:59,519 Speaker 4: the most impressive things. But at the time that fight 2107 01:32:59,640 --> 01:33:02,559 Speaker 4: was made, Jan wasn't even on the fucking list and 2108 01:33:02,600 --> 01:33:05,880 Speaker 4: he got He thoroughly, thoroughly beat his ass. 2109 01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:09,680 Speaker 1: Sorry you forfeit awards in my book, when that happens. 2110 01:33:09,920 --> 01:33:11,679 Speaker 2: I kind of think it's the same thing about Van. 2111 01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:14,240 Speaker 2: Even though the win over Roy Vaut is so damn impressive, 2112 01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:17,280 Speaker 2: and even though you could always argue that that injury 2113 01:33:17,360 --> 01:33:20,759 Speaker 2: was caused by him for throwing Pantosia down, it was early, 2114 01:33:20,960 --> 01:33:23,679 Speaker 2: it was freak. He didn't beat him. He didn't beat him, 2115 01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:25,000 Speaker 2: so I can't give him that award. 2116 01:33:25,320 --> 01:33:27,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, even beat him with martial arts skill is what 2117 01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:28,200 Speaker 1: you mean. 2118 01:33:28,360 --> 01:33:31,400 Speaker 2: Right, And and Joan At the same time, the first 2119 01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:34,280 Speaker 2: win was Marcus McKee. McGee not on the same level. 2120 01:33:34,479 --> 01:33:37,240 Speaker 2: It's a great story, but Islam's the best fighter in 2121 01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:38,800 Speaker 2: the world, and all he did was move up and 2122 01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:40,040 Speaker 2: wait and shut out the champion. 2123 01:33:40,080 --> 01:33:40,680 Speaker 1: So there you go. 2124 01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:42,599 Speaker 6: Is there anything to be said though, real quick? 2125 01:33:42,640 --> 01:33:45,680 Speaker 5: For the level like where morobs guys were ranked, his 2126 01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:48,160 Speaker 5: appoint his three wins this year, they were probably like 2127 01:33:48,360 --> 01:33:50,200 Speaker 5: number one, number two, number one. 2128 01:33:50,280 --> 01:33:53,840 Speaker 4: Yes, so I think you can listen.

But 2132 01:34:02,000 --> 01:34:04,880 Speaker 4: for me pound for pound, if you want, if we're 2133 01:34:04,880 --> 01:34:06,719 Speaker 4: gonna do this whole shit, or we're ranking guys pound 2134 01:34:06,720 --> 01:34:09,120 Speaker 4: for it has to mean something and you should never 2135 01:34:09,240 --> 01:34:11,680 Speaker 4: lose to a guy unranked on pounds for pound that 2136 01:34:11,760 --> 01:34:16,320 Speaker 4: way ever, that's fair.

I really 2338 01:43:47,080 --> 01:43:51,600 Speaker 4: don't know, But I know that it's always going to 2339 01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:55,080 Speaker 4: be better in the end to give whatever effort you 2340 01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:58,920 Speaker 4: have to whatever those needs that you might have might be. 2341 01:43:59,160 --> 01:44:01,560 Speaker 4: And I wish you all the best of luck and 2342 01:44:01,640 --> 01:44:02,679 Speaker 4: standing tall this year. 2343 01:44:02,880 --> 01:44:05,800 Speaker 2: Oh, I love that I agree with so much of that. 2344 01:44:05,920 --> 01:44:08,559 Speaker 2: Let your losses be on the field, which means, don't 2345 01:44:08,640 --> 01:44:10,840 Speaker 2: you know, don't lose in the on deck circles, hyping 2346 01:44:10,920 --> 01:44:14,280 Speaker 2: yourself out of it, go all in. The fortune favors 2347 01:44:14,320 --> 01:44:17,600 Speaker 2: the bold. But this year I'm really really getting in 2348 01:44:17,640 --> 01:44:20,040 Speaker 2: tune with the look we all know it's a battle mentally, 2349 01:44:20,120 --> 01:44:22,000 Speaker 2: us versus us, Like, that's really what it is at 2350 01:44:22,000 --> 01:44:24,879 Speaker 2: the end of the day, you versus yourself. I'm really 2351 01:44:24,920 --> 01:44:28,320 Speaker 2: digging in research wise into the subconscious because you know, 2352 01:44:28,680 --> 01:44:30,240 Speaker 2: you know, I've had these times through the years where 2353 01:44:30,240 --> 01:44:31,720 Speaker 2: i could go to therapy and I could be like, 2354 01:44:32,439 --> 01:44:35,200 Speaker 2: I'm not upset about this, I'm not harboring about this, 2355 01:44:35,600 --> 01:44:37,960 Speaker 2: but yet my family feels like I'm on edge, I'm 2356 01:44:38,000 --> 01:44:41,519 Speaker 2: not sleeping, I'm whatever. There's an internal battle going with 2357 01:44:41,560 --> 01:44:45,599 Speaker 2: our subconscious where if you're not reprogramming your own brain 2358 01:44:45,640 --> 01:44:50,160 Speaker 2: and your own subconscious with the right things intentionally and aggressively, 2359 01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:53,000 Speaker 2: you almost don't have a shot at winning. I read 2360 01:44:53,000 --> 01:44:57,839 Speaker 2: something that only five percent of our thoughts are created 2361 01:44:57,880 --> 01:45:00,519 Speaker 2: by us ninety five percent of it, or by ourselves conscious. 2362 01:45:00,520 --> 01:45:04,080 Speaker 2: It's it's that computer that's constantly running that we feed 2363 01:45:04,120 --> 01:45:06,320 Speaker 2: with fear or whatever. You know, you know what people say, 2364 01:45:06,360 --> 01:45:09,040 Speaker 2: like your subconscious does can't tell what's real or not. 2365 01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:10,880 Speaker 2: So if you tell it, you're gonna fail, and you're 2366 01:45:11,160 --> 01:45:13,320 Speaker 2: you're you're harping on that you're gonna fail. That's just 2367 01:45:13,400 --> 01:45:16,400 Speaker 2: how it works. I am. I've been reading books. I've 2368 01:45:16,439 --> 01:45:18,960 Speaker 2: been listening to lectures. I am so focused on getting 2369 01:45:19,000 --> 01:45:22,639 Speaker 2: out of my own way and uh and being as 2370 01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:25,600 Speaker 2: delusional as I can about what can happen to me 2371 01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:30,360 Speaker 2: in life because I've been the other way. And yeah, 2372 01:45:30,400 --> 01:45:31,920 Speaker 2: I might break through once in a while and have 2373 01:45:32,000 --> 01:45:35,360 Speaker 2: some good moments, but I'm sick of not sleeping. Well, 2374 01:45:35,400 --> 01:45:36,559 Speaker 2: I'm sick of you know what I mean, like all 2375 01:45:36,560 --> 01:45:38,640 Speaker 2: that stuff that you're just like, well, that's life. No, 2376 01:45:38,720 --> 01:45:39,720 Speaker 2: it doesn't have to be. 2377 01:45:40,160 --> 01:45:40,600 Speaker 1: You got it. 2378 01:45:41,800 --> 01:45:43,840 Speaker 4: One more if I may be see which is I 2379 01:45:43,880 --> 01:45:45,920 Speaker 4: saw that. I've seen this guy on social media. I 2380 01:45:45,920 --> 01:45:49,360 Speaker 4: don't know his name, forgive me, but he's been talking 2381 01:45:49,360 --> 01:45:51,400 Speaker 4: about these works of this philosopher. I'm not going to 2382 01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:53,960 Speaker 4: go into him, but it's a French philosopher or sociologist 2383 01:45:54,560 --> 01:45:59,360 Speaker 4: talking about class and the difference between classes. And he 2384 01:45:59,520 --> 01:46:02,200 Speaker 4: goes on to say that there really isn't like you 2385 01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:05,840 Speaker 4: can get the architectural design of a grand cathedral. Of course, 2386 01:46:05,840 --> 01:46:08,080 Speaker 4: it's going to be more complex than what you get 2387 01:46:08,120 --> 01:46:11,400 Speaker 4: for like government housing, but some but it's all context 2388 01:46:11,400 --> 01:46:14,599 Speaker 4: dependent on how you see the beauty. Because somebody who 2389 01:46:14,760 --> 01:46:16,800 Speaker 4: came from a situation where maybe they didn't have indoor 2390 01:46:16,840 --> 01:46:19,800 Speaker 4: plumbing and they didn't have, you know, heated or their 2391 01:46:19,840 --> 01:46:21,800 Speaker 4: own central ac Now they've got that. This is a 2392 01:46:21,800 --> 01:46:24,439 Speaker 4: beautiful thing to them. It feels it fills them with joy. 2393 01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:27,040 Speaker 4: They see greatness in it. It can be quite subjective. 2394 01:46:27,080 --> 01:46:29,040 Speaker 4: It can be quite subjective in that sense. At the 2395 01:46:29,040 --> 01:46:31,160 Speaker 4: same time, though, one of the things the lessons to 2396 01:46:31,200 --> 01:46:34,560 Speaker 4: take from this is is like, if you don't invest 2397 01:46:34,880 --> 01:46:37,360 Speaker 4: in and I'm going to use the word beauty loosely here, 2398 01:46:37,520 --> 01:46:40,960 Speaker 4: like you know, the improvement of things trying right, If 2399 01:46:40,960 --> 01:46:43,240 Speaker 4: you don't invest in that, then you kind of get 2400 01:46:43,320 --> 01:46:45,880 Speaker 4: used to the idea that you only deserve the lesser, 2401 01:46:46,600 --> 01:46:49,400 Speaker 4: and you kind of just brainwash yourself over time by 2402 01:46:49,479 --> 01:46:53,639 Speaker 4: just accepting more not just fate, but the but the 2403 01:46:53,800 --> 01:46:57,800 Speaker 4: very material circumstances of that moment in fate. And it 2404 01:46:57,880 --> 01:47:00,679 Speaker 4: is always going to be better for your mental health, 2405 01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:03,000 Speaker 4: for your life more generally, for the enjoyment and the 2406 01:47:03,040 --> 01:47:05,800 Speaker 4: way you see the world if you try to make 2407 01:47:05,840 --> 01:47:07,960 Speaker 4: an effort at and again I'm using the word loosely 2408 01:47:08,000 --> 01:47:11,559 Speaker 4: at beautifying the life around you in the ways that 2409 01:47:11,600 --> 01:47:12,040 Speaker 4: you can. 2410 01:47:12,200 --> 01:47:13,479 Speaker 1: So I think also take that with you. 2411 01:47:13,520 --> 01:47:16,479 Speaker 2: Maybe don't give up, folks, keep going, keep going. 2412 01:47:16,560 --> 01:47:18,080 Speaker 1: If that doesn't work, then just give up. I mean, 2413 01:47:18,080 --> 01:47:19,240 Speaker 1: just call it a day. You know what I'm saying. 2414 01:47:19,280 --> 01:47:22,559 Speaker 2: That's it. Great stuff right there. Finally from flannels and JITs, 2415 01:47:22,640 --> 01:47:25,120 Speaker 2: what are BC's top ten, Well that's a lot. 2416 01:47:25,120 --> 01:47:26,559 Speaker 1: Okay, what the fuck kind of question is this? 2417 01:47:26,880 --> 01:47:29,200 Speaker 2: Top ten MK moments of all time? I'm sure we're 2418 01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:31,120 Speaker 2: going to get into something like this in my final 2419 01:47:31,160 --> 01:47:36,439 Speaker 2: episode Monday, January fifth, a week from today. But obviously, Luke, 2420 01:47:37,080 --> 01:47:39,360 Speaker 2: what's the best moment in MK history? You and me 2421 01:47:39,439 --> 01:47:41,920 Speaker 2: standing on me? In my opinion, you and me standing 2422 01:47:41,960 --> 01:47:46,200 Speaker 2: on that podium, winning that award and whatever that award 2423 01:47:46,240 --> 01:47:51,800 Speaker 2: is actually worth in real life. To us, it meant legit, validation. 2424 01:47:51,920 --> 01:47:55,880 Speaker 2: We beat Aerial in DC, we beat three UFC produced programs, 2425 01:47:55,920 --> 01:47:58,479 Speaker 2: like we went in there. We rocked the boat of 2426 01:47:58,520 --> 01:48:01,040 Speaker 2: what this art form can be. We were true to 2427 01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:04,320 Speaker 2: ourselves and it caught up with us in a good way. 2428 01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:08,559 Speaker 2: People noticed, they watched, they joined, they supported, They stuffed 2429 01:48:08,720 --> 01:48:12,320 Speaker 2: ballot boxes with fake email addresses.
