Yeah, Craig 47 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: Jones kind of maybe perhaps spread rumors out there, but 48 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: who does. 49 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, so my eyes look like maybe what somebody would 50 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 5: look like if they, you know, did some really interesting 51 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 5: recreational activities.

Cody Merroll 78 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 5: trying to get fucking fired, tweeting about Matoush Gamrot don't 79 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 5: hunt what you can't kill? Top five for the hangman 80 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 5: Dan Hooker? Sorry, Kenny, how did you navigate UFC three 81 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 5: oh five viewing with uh with your ADCC commentary? 82 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 2: Yeah? 83 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,120 Speaker 9: Well, first of all, that that shirt was actually originally white. 84 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 9: That's just the shirt that he you have worn to 85 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 9: every Dan Hooker fights out. 86 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, flatter all over. That is actual blood, ladies and gentlemen. 87 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,240 Speaker 2: Hooker's a savage. Yeah listen. 88 00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 9: So after I was working the ADCC event, I went home, 89 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 9: I got something to eat, went into my room and 90 00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,320 Speaker 9: laid down. My back was acting up, so I decided 91 00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 9: to watch watch the fights from my hotel bedroom. 92 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 5: So you watched it vertically laying down exactly, so by yourself, 93 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,520 Speaker 5: right by myself, right, yes, exactly. How did we do 94 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:20,600 Speaker 5: on commentary? I watched the main event back. There was 95 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:22,360 Speaker 5: no bias either way. I gave the champion a ton 96 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 5: of credit. Yeah no, I thought it was great, dude, 97 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 5: Yeah you yeah, no, but so tremendous main event. Obviously, 98 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,919 Speaker 5: it had a lot of EBB and flow. I'm always 99 00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 5: curious to get your take on the back side, and 100 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,120 Speaker 5: we don't always agree, and there was a lot to 101 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 5: digest here. I thought there were two close rounds one 102 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 5: and three, but Drake is du plus c you know, 103 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 5: finds a submission round four. The finish came together pretty quickly. 104 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 5: Kenny Floor in your thoughts, Yeah, it was. 105 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,480 Speaker 2: I think a lot of those rounds were certainly close. 106 00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:49,760 Speaker 6: You know. 107 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 9: I think Dricis just has the ability to really drag 108 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 9: you into his game extremely well. 109 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: He even has the ability to make you. 110 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 9: Feel comfortable and whether it's real or not, make you 111 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 9: feel like you're winning. And I think a lot of 112 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 9: those rounds is he was looking very good and looking 113 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 9: very comfortable, but then he goes ahead and starts kind 114 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 9: of bringing that pressure, and little by little that starts 115 00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 9: to break you down. It starts to get you to 116 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 9: doubt yourself a little bit, especially when you are doing 117 00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 9: quite well. You think you have him out of there, 118 00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 9: but you don't. He's extremely durable, durable, that's a big 119 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 9: component to his success. I'm not sure it's going to 120 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 9: be a long term method to victory over the course 121 00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 9: of many, many years. However, it is working. He just 122 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 9: defeated what I believe to be, you know, probably the 123 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 9: best middleweight that I've ever seen compete, and it's amazing. 124 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 9: Everything from his execution, to his game plan, to his 125 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 9: toughness to his ability to just get you to fold 126 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:01,720 Speaker 9: is something to behold. 127 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: And Dricus is a damp problem man. He is a savage. 128 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 5: It's nice to hear you put Izzy in those terms, right. 129 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 5: I think Anderson Silva is ubiquitously regarded as the greatest 130 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 5: midleweight of all time, and we don't need to have 131 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,600 Speaker 5: that conversation right now, But is his rain in the 132 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 5: modern era? And what he did when it comes to 133 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 5: those seven title fights inside of twenty months or whatever 134 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 5: it was, was absolutely absurd. So the legacy building nature 135 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 5: of this win for Drinkus Dupless should not be lost 136 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:29,239 Speaker 5: on anyone. And as we said on the broadcast, canful 137 00:06:29,279 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 5: you go Robert Whitaker, Sean Strickland, is Rolata, Sonia, back 138 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 5: to back to back like this. What else are you 139 00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 5: going to say? 140 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 3: Right? 141 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:38,359 Speaker 5: Hall of Fame careers happened very quickly in Dricus DUPLESSI 142 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 5: was not a Hall of Famer before Saturday Night. And 143 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 5: I'm not even sitting here being suggestive that he is. 144 00:06:42,680 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 5: But maybe I am. 145 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 2: Because he just finds a way to win. 146 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,480 Speaker 5: And you know, one thing that I kept reading and 147 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,280 Speaker 5: kept hearing when I would listen back to commentary is 148 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 5: mma offense through exhaustion and gosh man like will to win. 149 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 5: Skill of course is a big part of it, but 150 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 5: this man's desire and something that I think is befitting 151 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 5: of all South Africans for the most part, is a 152 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 5: big part of this Kenny. And I just think his 153 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 5: fight iq, his fight instincts, his high guard, his ability 154 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 5: to fight through a body shot. This guy's a really, 155 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 5: really impressive champion. And you know, this was probably, I think, 156 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 5: in a lot of respects, his toughest matchup, at least 157 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:22,200 Speaker 5: on paper. 158 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 2: There's no question about that. I mean, I think that's 159 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,960 Speaker 2: why I had is he winning this fight? 160 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 9: I felt that like technique would overcome some of the 161 00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:35,760 Speaker 9: strengths that Dricis brings in there, which are a lot 162 00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,640 Speaker 9: of physical strengths, right, But it was not to be. 163 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 9: Drickis just brought too much pressure and if you're going 164 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:45,720 Speaker 9: to beat Izzy, that's how you do it. Now, I thought, 165 00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 9: is he showed some better footwork than he showed in 166 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 9: the Strickland fight. Was he able to companiently diffuse that 167 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 9: pressure and counter Dricis the way? 168 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,320 Speaker 2: I thought, No, he didn't. And I think that. 169 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 9: And I thought that he followed the right game plan. 170 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 9: If Drake was going to finish Izzy, it was going 171 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 9: to be on the ground. In my opinion, Yes, he 172 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,160 Speaker 9: hit hard, Yes, sure, was it anything that is he 173 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 9: hasn't seen before? No, And I thought that his best, 174 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 9: best path to victory and his easiest path to victory 175 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 9: was going to be on the ground. 176 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 2: That's what we've seen. Is he most vulnerable not only 177 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 2: with his submission game, but with his grounded pound. 178 00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 9: I think that that's how you know, that's what makes 179 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 9: Dricks such a problem for a lot of people, because 180 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 9: maybe he's not the most technical dude, but he does 181 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 9: have various ways to beat you, and he does know 182 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,280 Speaker 9: how to adjust during a fight and he's never going 183 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,440 Speaker 9: to be rattled in a fight, that. 184 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 2: Is for sure. 185 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,719 Speaker 9: So moving forward, I don't see a hell of a 186 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 9: lot of people beating Drigis duplicy, just based on matchups 187 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 9: and what he's shown. 188 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 2: And again I just came away and pressed as hell. 189 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,640 Speaker 5: So many things that we want to get into when 190 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 5: it comes to this main event, and we will pick 191 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 5: the brain of one Ray Long Goo. So Morne Visser, 192 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,559 Speaker 5: the head coach, has been working with Drakes Duplessi I 193 00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 5: think twelve years and just incredible what they have been 194 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:10,440 Speaker 5: able to accomplish. I want to do some round by 195 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 5: round stuff as well, Kenny. But as far as this 196 00:09:12,440 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 5: left leg offensively of drake Is Duplessi, I spent a 197 00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 5: lot of time with Dominic Cruz throughout the week and 198 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 5: he just kept talking about this left leg. And as commentators, 199 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 5: you're trying to focus on the offense on both sides, 200 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,559 Speaker 5: but once again, you know, just picking his spots his 201 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 5: left leg useful. He has the heaviest fucking hands man, 202 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 5: you can tell every time you just greet the guy. 203 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 5: You know, he just hits hard, you know, But what 204 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 5: do you make about that left leg? And maybe us 205 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,599 Speaker 5: not talking enough about that as a singular weapon for 206 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:43,720 Speaker 5: the champion. 207 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:46,839 Speaker 9: Well, I think, who knows if it's real or not. 208 00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 9: But according to Izzy, he didn't really feel like it 209 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 9: was a major problem during the fight. He said, you know, 210 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:55,559 Speaker 9: it was fast, he was kicking him. I don't know 211 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 9: if it was really affecting him. However, I would say 212 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 9: when I saw him working on on that in training, 213 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,320 Speaker 9: when I saw Drink's duplice working here on that in training, 214 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,839 Speaker 9: working down on the pads repeatedly, I thought that was 215 00:10:06,880 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 9: a really smart approach. If you want to give yourself 216 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,720 Speaker 9: a better chance of beating Israel out of Sonia, especially 217 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 9: if you want to pressure him, well you got to 218 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:19,199 Speaker 9: take away his footwork, especially in the form of that 219 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 9: lateral footwork. 220 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 2: Well, there's no. 221 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,560 Speaker 9: Better way to do that than taking out the lead leg. 222 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 9: That is going to slow you down, That is going 223 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 9: to make you a little bit more hesitant, cause you 224 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,679 Speaker 9: to many switch stances when you don't want to. So 225 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 9: I thought that was a beautiful approach by the champion. 226 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 2: Dric is tu plus C. 227 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 9: So you know, who knows whether is he is being 228 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 9: legit or not in saying that it wasn't effective against him. 229 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 9: I would argue it probably was, and at the very 230 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 9: least it's effective in cutting off the cage. 231 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 2: So props to Dricus and his team. 232 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,800 Speaker 5: What about the ability to get a submission and to 233 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 5: get it so quickly against a guy who had never 234 00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 5: been submitted before. 235 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,199 Speaker 9: Yeah, so I think a lot of that has to 236 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 9: do with people not really getting great position on Israel 237 00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 9: out of Sonia. You know, sometimes we look at the 238 00:11:04,440 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 9: stats and be like, oh my gosh, he's never been 239 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 9: submitted before. He must be a Brazilian jiu jitsu black 240 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 9: belt expert. Like no, just no, one's really got him 241 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 9: into really compromising positions for too long. And why because 242 00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:19,280 Speaker 9: Adasania knows how to build his base up really well. 243 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 9: When he was going to build up his base though, 244 00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 9: he did turn his back right and that's where Dricos 245 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 9: was able to just like jump on that neck. I 246 00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 9: don't even know if it was really around the next 247 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 9: so much. I just think that, you know, that South 248 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 9: African strength of yeah, yeah, squeeze, got. 249 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,439 Speaker 2: The squeeze and out of Sani is like, yeah, you 250 00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:39,959 Speaker 2: know what, I'm good, I'm good on this. 251 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,199 Speaker 5: We have these champions right now at one hundred and 252 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,079 Speaker 5: seventy pounds and one hundred and eighty five pounds, and 253 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 5: I don't know it's intangible, but they just won't be 254 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 5: denied Kenny, you know, and physical strength I think for 255 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 5: both of them is a big part of it. 256 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 3: You know. 257 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,040 Speaker 5: Sorry, I mean it's about drinkus DUPLESSI I should have 258 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 5: won my stone knock sweatshirt Kenny. Round one, both men 259 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,319 Speaker 5: had their moments. Yeah, if anybody has a problem with 260 00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:08,319 Speaker 5: a scorecard on either side, I'm not sure what to 261 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 5: tell you. Round two, I thought Drake is duplus ces wrestling, 262 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 5: led the dance as I suggested on broadcast. And round three, 263 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 5: even though the numbers at one point had it in 264 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 5: terms of these significant strikes thirty six to fifteen du plus, 265 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,559 Speaker 5: he had a ton of moments in that round as well. So, 266 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 5: you know, people who want to get on a soapbox 267 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:30,040 Speaker 5: and talk scorecards after this fight, I'm not among them, 268 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 5: and not for nothing. Dracus took the judges out of 269 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 5: it anyway. But do you have anything for us on 270 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 5: rounds one or three? And I guess my opinion that 271 00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 5: Drake is still not getting enough credit from the masses 272 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:40,280 Speaker 5: for his striking. 273 00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, listen, he is effective. 274 00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 9: I think what throws everybody off right, myself included, is 275 00:12:50,120 --> 00:12:51,679 Speaker 9: the fact that it's not traditional. 276 00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 2: And when something's not traditional. 277 00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:58,839 Speaker 9: It challenges our perspectives on what we have seen and 278 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 9: what we know or have known to be true. 279 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:03,439 Speaker 2: And this goes across the board. 280 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 9: And I also think that Dricis is at this point 281 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 9: in his career where his chin, his durability, his toughness 282 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 9: can lead the way and get him through a lot 283 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 9: of those moments. 284 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 2: And I think that his ability to. 285 00:13:18,880 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 9: Rush you with blitzes and being off rhythm is something 286 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 9: that can throw off even guys like Israel out of Sonya. 287 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 9: Now we saw that with Sean Strickland, and yes, perhaps 288 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,000 Speaker 9: out of Sonya was not as motivated or had an injury, 289 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 9: whatever it was. A very traditional technical fighter will always 290 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 9: have a problem with someone who's very unorthodox, especially if 291 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 9: you don't have that kind of one punch knockout countering ability. 292 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 9: Israel doesn't necessarily have that. We've seen him do that 293 00:13:50,480 --> 00:13:53,559 Speaker 9: against Pereira right at times, you know, when he was 294 00:13:53,640 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 9: knocking him out, but he let Pereira so like so 295 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 9: into his domain where he was really risking his own 296 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,920 Speaker 9: chin as well. Didn't quite do that against Rickis. I 297 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:09,920 Speaker 9: don't think he should have, but he's not really that 298 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,840 Speaker 9: kind of a guy. And because of that, Trickis did 299 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 9: match up extremely well against him. There were some really 300 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 9: close rounds. And does it even matter, No, because Drickis 301 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 9: went out there and got the finish, So it doesn't 302 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:23,560 Speaker 9: matter what kind of scorecard you had who you thought 303 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 9: was winning. 304 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: Drick has got it done. 305 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 5: So hey, Ray, long ago, let's go three wide live 306 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:31,640 Speaker 5: from the Ruba. Sorry to keep you waiting. It got 307 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,080 Speaker 5: that out in the chat that you were with us. 308 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 5: It's great to see you, brother. How are we doing? 309 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 6: Very good? Very good? 310 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 10: Sorry, just focusing you. I'm listening to and there's so 311 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,440 Speaker 10: much to unpack. But I think Kenny doing a good 312 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 10: job of Kenny. I think you hit on the point 313 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 10: like I am. First off, I love the guy. I 314 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 10: think he's got a great attitude and stuff. But man, 315 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 10: I might confuse because the optics are something like I've 316 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 10: never seen before. 317 00:14:57,520 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 6: And the average guy that rushes in like that, yeah 318 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 6: he gets killed. He yeah, he's gonna pay for it. 319 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 10: And like you say, even though Adas on one hundred 320 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,080 Speaker 10: percent is the more technical striker normally with that I've 321 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 10: seen it in gyms like boxing gyms, where a guy 322 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:16,720 Speaker 10: is tough, it only lasts so long though he is 323 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 10: eventually gonna get caught by the better guy. This guy 324 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 10: is so goddamn tough and John, you said it, he 325 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 10: leads with You know that toughness is really what's getting 326 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 10: him through. I'm not seeing any technical thing, but it 327 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 10: is the craziest thing to me, and I really I'm 328 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 10: a huge fan of the guys. I think he stands 329 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,040 Speaker 10: for the right stuff. Everything's good, I do it. Israel 330 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 10: looked phenomenal. 331 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,920 Speaker 5: Yeah I did too, But you know, wow, you just 332 00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 5: gave us a lot to unpack. 333 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 6: Huh. 334 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 2: I mean, my god. 335 00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 5: I'm just gonna sit back and let you guys talk. 336 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 10: But you know, yeah, this could keep going on because 337 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 10: here's the thing is he wants to fight at his 338 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 10: own pace. 339 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 6: That's the first thing. 340 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,960 Speaker 10: If you look at the Romero fight, he's just gonna 341 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,880 Speaker 10: do enough to get by. If you look at his 342 00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 10: other fights, he's always controlling dance. He came out trying 343 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 10: to do that. But this guy just wouldn't go away 344 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 10: right if he would have caught him in the second 345 00:16:07,080 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 10: or third round. We just said, this is great, he 346 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 10: picked him apart. The guy loo tolerable, blah blah. The 347 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 10: guy doesn't go away. That that the ken and when 348 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,240 Speaker 10: he had his chance on the ground, man that he 349 00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:20,440 Speaker 10: you know, I think at that point it was just 350 00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:24,080 Speaker 10: fatigue because the guy's not fighting in his rhythm. He's fighting, 351 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 10: he's trying to, but this guy's not letting them, you 352 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 10: know what I mean. Look, Romero blitzes you too. He 353 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 10: just doesn't he doesn't want to take what's coming back 354 00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:34,359 Speaker 10: half the times. 355 00:16:34,120 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 6: You know what I mean. This guy, this guy took. 356 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,520 Speaker 6: This guy took some shots, John, he took a beating. 357 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 6: I almost think that's. 358 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 2: What makes it worse. 359 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:43,800 Speaker 9: Ray, I almost feel like that's what makes it worse 360 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 9: because you think, you think you're like piecing this guy 361 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 9: up and you're like, oh man, I got this guy, 362 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:51,640 Speaker 9: and you're like, wait, he's not affected, and in fact, 363 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 9: he's coming at me stronger and harder every single time. 364 00:16:55,120 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 2: What the hell do I do and need to do 365 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,280 Speaker 2: against this guy? Then he starts finding some success and 366 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 2: that little ball starts to roll down the hill and 367 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 2: it gets bigger and bigger and bigger, and I don't know, 368 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 2: again't I said, I said, I don't think it's a 369 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 2: long term play for Drick is right, But. 370 00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 6: I can't see it. I can't. Yeah, yeah, I mean 371 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 6: not see it. 372 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 5: But I'm not gonna tell you I've been and. 373 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 6: Again this is not this is not. 374 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,920 Speaker 10: I from day one, like you remember, even in the 375 00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 10: beginning fights where he was breathing heavy, look like he 376 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 10: had no coupdio. He's still getting it done. He was 377 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,440 Speaker 10: looking you know, remember those before he had his nose 378 00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 10: fixed or whatever. He said, no, I can't breathe it. 379 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:38,320 Speaker 10: There was always something about him optically that told me 380 00:17:38,440 --> 00:17:39,720 Speaker 10: what am I even looking at it? 381 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 11: Like? 382 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:43,120 Speaker 10: And he's and the guy he's not losing. He keeps 383 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 10: wearing people down and just breaking them, and I think 384 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 10: that's what he did. But he against a really good 385 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 10: out of the other side. You came out of there really, 386 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 10: you know, like he went into that fight going I'm 387 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 10: gonna piece this guy up and I'm one hundred percent 388 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 10: gonna win. He looked like he had to write out attitude. 389 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,880 Speaker 10: And like you say, Ken, you start hitting the guy 390 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 10: and he's not going anywhere, and then you get hit 391 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 10: with something that's so unorthodox and you feel like an idiot, 392 00:18:07,920 --> 00:18:11,000 Speaker 10: Like the guy just hit me with something that I 393 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 10: never even seen before. But normally, again, a good guy 394 00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 10: catches you, you know what I mean. Like, there was 395 00:18:17,960 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 10: a guy like the years ago ago, but the guy 396 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 10: was horrible. I put him in my guy was a 397 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:25,719 Speaker 10: champion kickbox Like, he doesn't spin back. You hit him 398 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,720 Speaker 10: in the knee. He wasn't looking to hit him in 399 00:18:27,760 --> 00:18:30,840 Speaker 10: the knee, but he took the guy down. Like, I'm like, 400 00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:33,440 Speaker 10: this guy's horrible, but you don't know where to crap 401 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:36,720 Speaker 10: his land. And then before you know, if you don't 402 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 10: have the right mindset, you're just going, what the what 403 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 10: the fuck is going on? So hats off to drinkist man. 404 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 10: I thought that was one of the craziest fights I 405 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:49,399 Speaker 10: ever saw. I think that was phenomenal. And I think 406 00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 10: what really made a phenomena is I think we saw 407 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,760 Speaker 10: a good isy. But you know, going into the fight, look, 408 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 10: I had picked due Plessus. I wasn't confident, but I 409 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 10: had just said, you know, last fight, you know what 410 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 10: is he I think, wasn't he like he got cool 411 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 10: with a DWI before? Now the guy's got money. I 412 00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 10: think all of that stuff starts to plain will they 413 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 10: want to say it? And I, oh, God, I'm sure 414 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 10: he got a good pick. Where's this guy going? 415 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 5: I don't even know. I don't even know where to begin. 416 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 5: I disagree with so much of what just came out 417 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,920 Speaker 5: of your mouth, and you, I don't even know where 418 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 5: to begin. Now's your vacation going? 419 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 6: No good, Jo, go? What's you disagree with with? No? 420 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 5: I mean for starters, I don't you know. It's like 421 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:29,159 Speaker 5: I feel like you guys both are like waiting for 422 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:31,119 Speaker 5: the other shoot to fall off and not being nearly 423 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 5: complimentary enough about the Mixed Martial Arts and MMA is 424 00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:36,680 Speaker 5: like a young sport thirty three and oh as a 425 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:41,560 Speaker 5: kickboxer like he morene Vitzer wishes he didn't kickbox because 426 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 5: it made so many bad habits that they try to 427 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 5: work out of here in MMA. But it's like, I 428 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,880 Speaker 5: don't know. I still feel like like I'm writing down 429 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 5: all these things. You say, he's an average guy who 430 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,399 Speaker 5: rushed in, and the average guy who rushed in, you know, 431 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,480 Speaker 5: almost suggested that it's almost toughness, like I know. 432 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 10: But I no, listen, no, let me explain it. Though 433 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:01,640 Speaker 10: not not average, but John, it's something and I Kenny, 434 00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:02,400 Speaker 10: you can only. 435 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 6: You know, help me out with this if you want. 436 00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:06,560 Speaker 6: I mean, I just never seen it before, John, Like 437 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 6: I'm complimenting. 438 00:20:07,880 --> 00:20:10,520 Speaker 5: Yes, brother, we're just started, right, you know. 439 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 10: But like I'm just saying, optically, when I'm looking, it's 440 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 10: hard for me to figure out. 441 00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 5: But he thought Izzy on his best night, his most prepared, 442 00:20:19,320 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 5: the most strengthened, conditioned version. And but yeah, it's almost like, yeah, 443 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 5: I know, I just don't know. Yeah, I don't know. 444 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 6: I don't know. 445 00:20:28,119 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 5: I don't know if I sound like an apologist, you know. Hey, 446 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:31,359 Speaker 5: I get off the air and people are saying I 447 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 5: didn't give the guy enough fucking credit, you know, which 448 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 5: I totally disagree with it. But I don't know. I 449 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 5: just feel like, no, yeah, go ahead. 450 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 10: Guy one hundred one to fight. The guy looks like 451 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,879 Speaker 10: a great guy. I'm just the way he does it 452 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,200 Speaker 10: is just I just look at and go, holy Croix, 453 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:49,400 Speaker 10: I can't believe what I'm looking. Give me another guy 454 00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 10: we've seen like this? 455 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 9: Yeah, Oh, John, I'll ask you, so, do you think 456 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 9: do you think it can be true that someone may 457 00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,600 Speaker 9: not look great and still get a win? Yeah, of course, 458 00:20:58,640 --> 00:21:00,920 Speaker 9: But like how doesn't happen all all the time. 459 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 5: But like the optics, like I don't know what exactly 460 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 5: were we're sort of looking for exactly. I mean, is 461 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:10,240 Speaker 5: these optics were great, right right twenty two of twenty 462 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 5: three to the body and looking good doing it and 463 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 5: all that. If anything, When I watched it back, I 464 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 5: felt like maybe I didn't give Drinks enough credit for 465 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 5: some of the body shots. 466 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 2: But I don't know. 467 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,600 Speaker 5: Man, Sometimes I feel like the world gets caught watching 468 00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 5: one guy. 469 00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, I think, I think. I think he did beat 470 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 9: and is he the best? Is he that we've seen 471 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 9: in a long time? There's doubt, but we also can't 472 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 9: ignore the fact that, you know. 473 00:21:34,119 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 2: Durability and toughness is a big component to his success 474 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 2: and he should be applauded by that. 475 00:21:39,960 --> 00:21:40,159 Speaker 6: Is that. 476 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:45,760 Speaker 9: Six seven, eight, nine, ten years of him doing that? No, 477 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 9: it's probably not gonna happen, nor maybe should it. Right again, 478 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 9: we've seen so many guys help awesome chins and then 479 00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 9: all of a sudden they don't. Tony Ferguson, Chuck Ledell, 480 00:21:58,000 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 9: Anderson's silva. 481 00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: All the he's got. If you're gonna get hit during 482 00:22:02,200 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 2: fights and you can't automatically have a you know you're 483 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,240 Speaker 2: not gonna have the longest of careers. It doesn't matter though, 484 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,640 Speaker 2: you know we're talking about drinckis duplicity right now. 485 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:16,400 Speaker 9: I don't see a whole lot of great matchups for him, 486 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,719 Speaker 9: Like I see him beating pretty much. I think he's 487 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,480 Speaker 9: gonna beat Strickland worse. I think he'll be I think 488 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 9: he'll go through I mov off. I don't think Hamzat 489 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 9: is tough enough or has the conditioning or has proven 490 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 9: to have that to beat someone like drinks duplicy, like 491 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 9: I don't know, Like I see that dude holding the 492 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 9: belt for a little while, for sure, no question about it. 493 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 9: I do think he's that tough. Like when you put 494 00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 9: it all together, he's a problem.

I don't want you 508 00:23:15,640 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 10: to take it the wrong way.

I'm sure I 512 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 5: took it the wrong way. I guess. I just feel 513 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 5: like when it comes to his style and his chin 514 00:23:33,400 --> 00:23:38,640 Speaker 5: or his ability to have a sustainable, long term championship run, 515 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,480 Speaker 5: it's almost like for him and balal And and for 516 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 5: him even more so because he's beaten Whitaker and at 517 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 5: Asania and Sean Strickland and Blow. Maybe can't lay claim 518 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 5: to wins over former champions like that, but it's almost 519 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 5: like mission accomplished at this point in time. You beat 520 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 5: the fucking best two middleweights of your era, one of them, 521 00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 5: if not both of them in their prime. I don't 522 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 5: know what else the guy needs to do. I mean, 523 00:24:02,640 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 5: I can get eighty five, Kenny. It's so hard to 524 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,320 Speaker 5: have a you know, a long rain without a misstep, 525 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 5: you know, But Marvin Vttory, Paolo Costa, Cannoneer, Joel Romero, 526 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 5: Anderson Silva, those are easy Scalps, you know, Strickland obviously, 527 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 5: Bo Nickel, Chimayev. These are the type of guys potentially 528 00:24:20,080 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 5: that could be coming through the woodworks. Yeah, it's an 529 00:24:22,800 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 5: exciting time. But this dude, Yeah, I don't know. It's 530 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 5: a fun conversation, Raymond. I'm not trying to take it personally. 531 00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I don't know. He blows my mind. 532 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 10: That's why I say, like, when you say it like 533 00:24:32,920 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 10: you disagree it really you can disagree, but I'm. 534 00:24:35,800 --> 00:24:38,520 Speaker 6: Not really saying any that I love the guy. 535 00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:38,880 Speaker 10: Man. 536 00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 6: What I saw was it was something that like it's 537 00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 6: just it's new for me and it's reaching. 538 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 5: So who's the comp then if there's no comp for 539 00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 5: the guy Kenny, like, who's the closest thing we've seen 540 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:53,159 Speaker 5: to you know, having some sort of a marauding style, 541 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 5: you know, because sometimes I think his you know what, 542 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 5: is it like a bull in a china shop nature 543 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 5: maybe makes us look away from some of the martial 544 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:05,280 Speaker 5: arts and maybe the method to mourne Visser's madness. You know, 545 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,159 Speaker 5: everybody's getting upset that I'm giving out my Coach of 546 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 5: the Year award in August. 547 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 2: It's like, you know, uh yeah, well, I think Imovov 548 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 2: might be an interesting matchup. He seems like he's coming 549 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 2: into his own. But I don't know, man. I mean 550 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:24,679 Speaker 2: the toughness that Dricistupulasi is showing out there, the execution 551 00:25:24,920 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 2: that he's showing out there, the toughness, I don't see 552 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 2: anyone in the immediate future. You know, you mentioned h 553 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 2: you mentioned Bo Nickel. I think he's gonna be a 554 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:37,840 Speaker 2: problem for a lot of people, just based on the 555 00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:39,720 Speaker 2: fact that he might be the only one or the 556 00:25:39,800 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 2: first one anyway, to have a sustained takedown game against 557 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,320 Speaker 2: someone like DDP. But I don't know. 558 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,880 Speaker 9: I think that's still a ways away, and I think 559 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 9: we still, you know, need to find out more about 560 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 9: Bo Nickel, but you know, just from a stylistic matchup. 561 00:25:54,400 --> 00:25:56,359 Speaker 9: But I don't know, man, I see DDP holding on 562 00:25:56,400 --> 00:25:58,240 Speaker 9: on that belt for a little while. You know, Sean 563 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:01,159 Speaker 9: Stricklan is always going to be tough. You know, the 564 00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 9: Winnakers and and you know km Zacchi maya have all 565 00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 9: though they're going to be tough, but they haven't proven 566 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:08,920 Speaker 9: to me what d DP has. 567 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 6: Yeah, okay, ray, I thought I think, yeah, go ahead, Ray. 568 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 5: I thought he was going to be treachus. I thought 569 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,760 Speaker 5: Leon was going to be Balau full disclosure, So. 570 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 10: I know, I I picked I picked d DP. I 571 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 10: wasn't like totally. I mean, I had to see what 572 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:27,960 Speaker 10: I had to see. But I thought d DP was 573 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 10: gonna win the Ballou fight. I thought, because Edwards had 574 00:26:32,960 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 10: just you know, beat a couple of good wrestlers, that 575 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 10: was going to be you know, a significant part of 576 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 10: that fight. But Ballau did a great job with the takedowns. 577 00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 10: But Balal still is more of a traditional guy than 578 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,159 Speaker 10: d d P on all facets. 579 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 6: Of the game. I think, you know, so uh, I 580 00:26:50,560 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 6: don't know. 581 00:26:51,119 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 5: It was just yeah, no, I was more bringing it up, 582 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 5: and not at all in the context of more than 583 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 5: the I guess, in the context of just how man 584 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 5: I I not that I doubted dupless, but you know, 585 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 5: I certainly didn't think that this was like the best 586 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 5: matchup for him. 587 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 6: That's all right, Well, you could see listen if if 588 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 6: Israel would have stuck to just an in and out 589 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 6: game and tried to pick him apart and not get 590 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 6: caught up, and man, I'm hitting this guy, He's not 591 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 6: going anywhere. 592 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,720 Speaker 10: Because normally when that's happening with my guys, let's just 593 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 10: be happy hitting them. 594 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 6: Don't try to do anything else. I mean, that's it. 595 00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,120 Speaker 10: You can't go in there looking too hard for the knockout. 596 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,760 Speaker 10: He probably you know, you know there was bad blood 597 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:31,639 Speaker 10: going into that that fight, and that could have played 598 00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 10: into it also that he might have overtried. But to me, 599 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,639 Speaker 10: out of Sonya was looking great. I thought he was 600 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:40,640 Speaker 10: looking really get The rounds were close, but like again, 601 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,840 Speaker 10: yet he looked really good to me, So I think 602 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 10: like DDP beat he beat a really good out of 603 00:27:48,640 --> 00:27:51,840 Speaker 10: Sonia man, and the way he did it was absolutely 604 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 10: phenomenal to me. I'm not taking nothing away from anybody. 605 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 10: I don't even like I don't even like being accused 606 00:27:57,880 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 10: that because anybody had stuck out that God has respect. 607 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 6: All the way. That's the only That's my only thing. 608 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 6: I'm just saying. 609 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 10: When I'm looking at it and I see a guy 610 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 10: rushing around and even his left kick sometimes it looks 611 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 10: labored like it's telegraphical to me, but it might be 612 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 10: a sledgehammer coming at you. 613 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,119 Speaker 6: All right, if you have to be in there, you know. 614 00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:19,440 Speaker 5: Yeah, No, if I were you guys, some weeks, I 615 00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 5: would hate me on this program. And that's okay as 616 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 5: the non martial artist, right, But I do feel like, 617 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 5: you know, Izzy or Leon.

The Rick Flairs, the hul Koga's, the 979 00:44:06,719 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 12: Sea of Punks, you know, all the all the all 980 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:10,640 Speaker 12: the promos that they cut. 981 00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:14,760 Speaker 3: And I remember my first my first post fight interview. 982 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,359 Speaker 12: I was twenty one. I said, any when you want, 983 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 12: don't send any when you want back. I look got 984 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,719 Speaker 12: the lens, right, and I thought I never had one. 985 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 12: I didn't have one for years after that. And then yeah, 986 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,440 Speaker 12: I just I just love it. I don't know yet 987 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 12: it's on the spot. I didn't plan any of that 988 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 12: with DC and the feet of the disputed thing, right, Yeah, 989 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:35,800 Speaker 12: I honestly don't know where you know. 990 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 3: I was just just come there. I'm glad. 991 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:38,960 Speaker 5: It is great. 992 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:39,279 Speaker 2: Glad. 993 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, So talk to me about either the rest of 994 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,280 Speaker 5: twenty twenty four. I'd imagine. I think maybe you've mentioned 995 00:44:47,360 --> 00:44:49,760 Speaker 5: either Madison Square Gardens. Seems like they like to feature 996 00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:52,200 Speaker 5: on these numbered card which is very exciting for me. 997 00:44:52,760 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 5: So what do you what can you tell us about 998 00:44:54,320 --> 00:44:56,800 Speaker 5: the rest of the year and any idea either a 999 00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:58,920 Speaker 5: name or the type of opposition that you think is 1000 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 5: going to show up in your bracket. 1001 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 12: Yeah, I think it's gonna be. I hope the Goddess 1002 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,680 Speaker 12: Mountain Square Garden. That's what I'll be ready. And uh, 1003 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:12,319 Speaker 12: I've already spoke to the UFC, and I don't want 1004 00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:15,680 Speaker 12: to shoot myself on the foot, but I am hoping 1005 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 12: that is the timeline then it falls on that date, 1006 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 12: you know what I mean. So, and as far as 1007 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 12: the name, I really I always wanted to ask you 1008 00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:28,000 Speaker 12: boys this because I don't actually I don't know where 1009 00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:28,680 Speaker 12: they're gonna go with me. 1010 00:45:28,800 --> 00:45:30,400 Speaker 3: What do you think are they gonna are they gonna. 1011 00:45:30,280 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 12: Like, are they gonna test me again? They're like they 1012 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,359 Speaker 12: try and get finished out of me. Are they're gonna 1013 00:45:35,440 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 12: like pull me back in? 1014 00:45:36,880 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 5: I don't know. 1015 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 3: I'm not really sure what they're gonna do. 1016 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:41,000 Speaker 12: I feel like I fight to the level of my opposition, 1017 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,960 Speaker 12: So yeah, I'm not really I'm not really concerned who 1018 00:45:45,000 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 12: they who they took me in now with I genuinely 1019 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 12: believe the biggest battle as far as being a UFC 1020 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:53,919 Speaker 12: fighter is concerned, is getting my head around the fact 1021 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:55,920 Speaker 12: I'm in the UFC. Because for me, like Kenny, I 1022 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:57,760 Speaker 12: was watching you when I was when I was younger, 1023 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 12: I thought you were, you know, absolutely icon going up. 1024 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 12: So I've I've seen I've been a fan for such 1025 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 12: a big majority of my life and now I'm only 1026 00:46:08,880 --> 00:46:10,320 Speaker 12: just in a couple of days time it will be 1027 00:46:10,360 --> 00:46:12,640 Speaker 12: a year where I've been signed, so I'm still in 1028 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:14,920 Speaker 12: that transition period and I feel like I'm doing pretty 1029 00:46:14,960 --> 00:46:19,480 Speaker 12: well considering that. So I'm not really concerning you to 1030 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:22,080 Speaker 12: give me because I think, yeah, I think I'll make 1031 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,040 Speaker 12: a show of it no matter what it is, especially 1032 00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 12: in MSG. 1033 00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 2: Absolutely what the heck do I know? But I think 1034 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:30,560 Speaker 2: you're at that point of your career where they're going 1035 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 2: to challenge you against other guys that are in and 1036 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:37,520 Speaker 2: around your experience level. Still, so two three fights where 1037 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 2: they're trying to figure out what's Oban Elliott all about, 1038 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 2: and then as you progress, then they start giving you 1039 00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,799 Speaker 2: the more experienced names. I think it's typically how it's done. 1040 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 2: But man, I mean you there, you've proved it, and 1041 00:46:50,120 --> 00:46:50,560 Speaker 2: keep at it. 1042 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:53,800 Speaker 5: Brother, It's fine, very much. It's interesting, man. You know 1043 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 5: you're in a good spot. Obviously, they've put you on 1044 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 5: two numbered cards, which I think is a good sign 1045 00:46:58,840 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 5: because those slots are always very thoughtfully considered. 1046 00:47:04,120 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 4: You know. 1047 00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 5: Domina Cruz always likes to say, you know, they try 1048 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 5: to test you methodically with different stylistic challenges on route 1049 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,960 Speaker 5: to contention and becoming the champion. I know you've said repeatedly, 1050 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:15,440 Speaker 5: like throughout your whole career, guys are shooting at your 1051 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 5: fucking legs. You know, you're an underdog against Preston Parsons, right, 1052 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:21,040 Speaker 5: so you know, maybe it's a striker that shows up 1053 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,239 Speaker 5: this time around. You know, I think for you it's 1054 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,080 Speaker 5: really just about focusing on dates as much as you 1055 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 5: can control the dates, right, And you know, here's the 1056 00:47:29,719 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 5: pitch for Madison Square Garden. You know that would be 1057 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 5: my advice. But as far as names, yeah, I think 1058 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:37,080 Speaker 5: Kenny's right. You know it would it would probably, but 1059 00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:38,800 Speaker 5: you never know, dude, like all of a sudden, it 1060 00:47:38,880 --> 00:47:41,320 Speaker 5: could be right, Like my producers suggesting Max Griffin and 1061 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 5: Gunnar Nelson. You never know when it could be experienced 1062 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:47,879 Speaker 5: guy as opposed to somebody that's a little bit greener. 1063 00:47:47,640 --> 00:47:51,239 Speaker 3: You know, yeah, yeah, the green I mean like on 1064 00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 3: the con tendencies. 1065 00:47:52,160 --> 00:47:55,880 Speaker 12: For example, I thought that Brazilion I thought was double 1066 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 12: my fights, all finishes, you know, that didn't that didn't 1067 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:00,480 Speaker 12: make a difference, you know what I mean? 1068 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 3: I didn't. I think too much of it. 1069 00:48:03,320 --> 00:48:05,560 Speaker 12: So there's there's boys with a lot of fights, there's 1070 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:08,560 Speaker 12: got less fights. But as you say, I'm getting it, 1071 00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,320 Speaker 12: getting my foot in the door and big cards and 1072 00:48:10,360 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 12: showing the world do I am? And I think MSG 1073 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 12: the home of home of the mob, the worst Gangster. Yeah, yeah, perfect. 1074 00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:19,759 Speaker 12: What other European are they going to put there? 1075 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:20,160 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? 1076 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 12: So I'll fly the fac, I'll fly the fag for 1077 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:26,400 Speaker 12: Europe there and and yeah that's what I'm focused on. 1078 00:48:26,520 --> 00:48:27,880 Speaker 3: I don't really know they're going to give me. 1079 00:48:28,360 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 5: Well, congratulations on a tremendous start to your UFC career 1080 00:48:32,520 --> 00:48:35,480 Speaker 5: and just the way you handled that last fight was 1081 00:48:35,560 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 5: really really impressive.

I'm 1102 00:49:28,200 --> 00:49:30,160 Speaker 5: kind of feeling bad like I wasn't nice to you 1103 00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 5: and Ray. I just get a little bit fired up sometimes, 1104 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:35,959 Speaker 5: I mean in terms of DDP and the hardest worker 1105 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,879 Speaker 5: in the room. One thing he said in the Fighter meeting, 1106 00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:40,279 Speaker 5: and you may or may not have heard me say 1107 00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:42,760 Speaker 5: this on the broadcast, but before he became the champion, 1108 00:49:43,360 --> 00:49:45,760 Speaker 5: he was the hardest worker in the room, right, hardest 1109 00:49:45,800 --> 00:49:48,799 Speaker 5: worker in the gym. But once he became the champion, Kenny, 1110 00:49:48,920 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 5: he said unequivocally like, I can't not be that guy, 1111 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:55,600 Speaker 5: Like it can't even be in question. And he said 1112 00:49:55,680 --> 00:49:57,680 Speaker 5: that in response to me asking him about the whole 1113 00:49:57,719 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 5: Teddy Atlas thing. When you become the champion, do you 1114 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:03,239 Speaker 5: level up twenty to thirty percent? And immediately he just 1115 00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 5: talked about the work like, all right, I've always been 1116 00:50:04,960 --> 00:50:06,839 Speaker 5: the hardest worker in the gym, but now like I'm 1117 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:08,360 Speaker 5: even going to go up two and a half to 1118 00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:12,920 Speaker 5: five percent because I can't afford to have Cameron Simon, 1119 00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 5: who works this fucking tailoff, be maybe the hardest. 1120 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 2: Worker in the room. 1121 00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:17,839 Speaker 3: Right. 1122 00:50:18,000 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 2: Well, oh, that that's clear. 1123 00:50:19,360 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 9: You could tell just the way he talks about the 1124 00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:26,000 Speaker 9: fight game, the way he talks about his preparation, he 1125 00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:28,880 Speaker 9: wouldn't be where he's at unless he was the hardest 1126 00:50:28,920 --> 00:50:31,080 Speaker 9: worker in the room. I expect that to get even 1127 00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:35,560 Speaker 9: more intense. The dude's a special guy, and not to mention, 1128 00:50:35,800 --> 00:50:40,080 Speaker 9: you know, with everything he's accomplished. He has always been 1129 00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 9: a complete class act dude. So yeah, and in regards 1130 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,800 Speaker 9: to you, man, always give your opinion. I love hearing it, 1131 00:50:48,000 --> 00:50:49,960 Speaker 9: and I think we agree a lot more than we 1132 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:53,359 Speaker 9: disagree with, no doubt, no doubt we disagree with Red. Yeah, 1133 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:56,680 Speaker 9: I disagree with Redd. Yeah, New York, Let's go. 1134 00:50:57,160 --> 00:50:59,880 Speaker 5: Yeah. And I'm just having fun with the minute man 1135 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:03,280 Speaker 5: and that gentleman, who of course I met very very gracious, 1136 00:51:03,360 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 5: Just having a little bit of fun. Hopefully you don't 1137 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 5: think it's at your expense. So I still want to 1138 00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,799 Speaker 5: stay on this main event in this middleweight division if 1139 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 5: I could for a little bit. And there are a 1140 00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:14,239 Speaker 5: lot of amazing contenders right now. You know, part of 1141 00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 5: the reason why I even put Izzy in the stratosphere 1142 00:51:18,080 --> 00:51:20,360 Speaker 5: of v Anderson Silva is his strength of schedule and 1143 00:51:20,480 --> 00:51:23,680 Speaker 5: this era of middleweight and maybe I think highlier or 1144 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:27,440 Speaker 5: in more glorified terms than you do the average man 1145 00:51:27,520 --> 00:51:30,320 Speaker 5: out there. Of Marvin Vittori, for example, a guy that 1146 00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:32,359 Speaker 5: is he has two wins over you know, how are 1147 00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:34,160 Speaker 5: you gonna get that fucking blockhead out of there? 1148 00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:34,359 Speaker 6: Right? 1149 00:51:34,719 --> 00:51:36,960 Speaker 5: So, Kenny, if you had to do, you know what 1150 00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 5: a dingo is, By the way I just found out 1151 00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:39,760 Speaker 5: in Australia. I had no idea. 1152 00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,640 Speaker 2: Thinkoh, isn't it like a small like a small looking 1153 00:51:42,840 --> 00:51:43,800 Speaker 2: kangaroo kind of? 1154 00:51:43,840 --> 00:51:48,480 Speaker 5: It's a wild fucking dog, Kenny. Oh seeking a wallabay 1155 00:51:49,080 --> 00:51:53,000 Speaker 5: about wallabay us New Englanders. That's fucking Bostonians. So no dingos, 1156 00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:57,080 Speaker 5: I mean dog all right. So to save a dingo's life, 1157 00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,160 Speaker 5: what middleweight are you sending in there to beat Dracus 1158 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:09,200 Speaker 5: due Pleus, Sean Strickland, Israel Adsanya, Robert Whittaker, Nassordini, mavovkam 1159 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 5: Zat Chimayev, Brendan Allen. You can have anybody you want, Kenny, 1160 00:52:14,160 --> 00:52:19,279 Speaker 5: but the dingo sitting there, and the dingo is potentially 1161 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:22,080 Speaker 5: gonna get put down if you don't send the right 1162 00:52:22,160 --> 00:52:23,880 Speaker 5: middleweight in there. So who do you think has the 1163 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:27,760 Speaker 5: best chance to beat this other fucking blockhead? The middleweight 1164 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 5: champion Drake is due. 1165 00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:33,279 Speaker 2: Please go what? I don't know, dude, this is tough. 1166 00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:34,839 Speaker 2: I'm looking at the list right now. 1167 00:52:35,680 --> 00:52:37,720 Speaker 5: I can't give me one ed you want me to start. 1168 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,120 Speaker 5: I mean, I gotta call the guys. 1169 00:52:39,719 --> 00:52:44,160 Speaker 2: I'm in a battle, by anything. I got a fucking robot. Gosh, 1170 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 2: I'm all these guys right now, there's no. 1171 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,759 Speaker 5: I'm not sure you don't send Izzy back in there, 1172 00:52:51,800 --> 00:52:53,319 Speaker 5: which is part of the reason I asked the question. 1173 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 2: Well, here's so, I actually think he might do better 1174 00:52:56,160 --> 00:53:00,160 Speaker 2: against Izzy the second time around. Oh okay, yeah, I 1175 00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 2: don't know, man. 1176 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:05,680 Speaker 9: Honestly, I Mavoff is interesting to me just because I 1177 00:53:05,800 --> 00:53:08,560 Speaker 9: do feel he's coming into his own Am I am 1178 00:53:08,640 --> 00:53:10,919 Speaker 9: I confident I'm gonna save that Dingo's life. 1179 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:12,239 Speaker 2: I'll be honest with you. 1180 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 9: No, Like I don't know, Hom's that Chimaya early. You 1181 00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:17,640 Speaker 9: might be really interested the first ten minutes. He'll be 1182 00:53:17,719 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 9: a problem, But I don't think he gets him out 1183 00:53:20,440 --> 00:53:22,879 Speaker 9: of there. Man, I think I think DDP comes back 1184 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,080 Speaker 9: and destroys in the last couple of rounds. 1185 00:53:25,280 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 5: Are you chewing gum on the Anakin Flaming Podcast today? 1186 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,799 Speaker 5: Is that what we're doing? I mean, no, you can't. 1187 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:30,320 Speaker 6: You don't know. 1188 00:53:30,520 --> 00:53:32,240 Speaker 5: You don't even have to spit it out. It actually 1189 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 5: makes your teeth look whiter. Don't fucking spit it out 1190 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 5: at this point. You know, Big Ron likes to do 1191 00:53:36,120 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 5: the program with a red lighter in his right hand, 1192 00:53:38,320 --> 00:53:40,760 Speaker 5: and we don't begrudge him for that if you want. 1193 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 2: To know my answer to this question or no, what 1194 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:43,800 Speaker 2: do you? Cody said Paolo Costa. 1195 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:48,240 Speaker 5: My answer was very quick in my own head, CODYA. 1196 00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:53,160 Speaker 5: Robert Whittaker. Robert Whittaker, Robert Whittaker rematch from UFC two ninety, 1197 00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:57,400 Speaker 5: Robert Whittaker in current form, Robert Whittaker ever evolving, Robert 1198 00:53:57,400 --> 00:54:01,040 Speaker 5: Whittaker not gonna fight much past third six thirty seven 1199 00:54:01,160 --> 00:54:04,279 Speaker 5: years old. Robert Whitaker would be the answer for me 1200 00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 5: now is he fought great? And I would like to 1201 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,279 Speaker 5: get your thoughts if I could on rounds one and 1202 00:54:09,400 --> 00:54:12,560 Speaker 5: three a little bit. I mean, did you have Izzy 1203 00:54:12,680 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 5: up to one? Two of the three judges had Drikus 1204 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,359 Speaker 5: Duplessi up to one. Again, I have no issue. There's 1205 00:54:18,440 --> 00:54:20,399 Speaker 5: only one man who could have been up three nil. 1206 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 5: And I know some fans are going to maybe go 1207 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:24,799 Speaker 5: to a different MMA show because I said that, right, 1208 00:54:25,120 --> 00:54:26,719 Speaker 5: only one guy could have been up three nil. As 1209 00:54:26,719 --> 00:54:29,000 Speaker 5: far as I'm concerted, as DP I had it, I 1210 00:54:29,080 --> 00:54:32,839 Speaker 5: think Izy two to one, but I mean one in three. 1211 00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,160 Speaker 5: Both guys had their moments despite that thirty six to fifteen. 1212 00:54:36,560 --> 00:54:37,560 Speaker 5: Go watch round three. 1213 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 2: I'm telling you right, I mean I thought again, and 1214 00:54:41,719 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 2: this is perhaps I'm biased. 1215 00:54:43,760 --> 00:54:46,400 Speaker 9: I had Izzy as well, you know, in those rounds, 1216 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,240 Speaker 9: but like it was close third round, I wasn't confident, 1217 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:51,200 Speaker 9: you know what I mean, Like first round, I thought 1218 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:52,040 Speaker 9: Izzy did enough. 1219 00:54:52,960 --> 00:54:54,840 Speaker 2: But I don't know, dude, I don't know. I don't know. 1220 00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:56,800 Speaker 2: I mean that takedown at the you know, I don't know. 1221 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, No, it's tough. It's it's the greatest sport in 1222 00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:00,840 Speaker 5: the world. It's an amazing sport. 1223 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 2: I'm especially given that what was going on that night 1224 00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:04,320 Speaker 2: with some of the judges. 1225 00:55:04,360 --> 00:55:06,239 Speaker 5: I was like, you can throw a lot of the 1226 00:55:06,520 --> 00:55:09,640 Speaker 5: who knows right right anyway, but no, I mean you 1227 00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:12,680 Speaker 5: and I both had Isy up to one. Now your 1228 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 5: scorecard of more value than mine because I got a 1229 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:17,240 Speaker 5: lot of other things going on, you know, Toyot Tire's 1230 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 5: official tire of the UFC, you know, protein snacks and 1231 00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:23,759 Speaker 5: everything else. You know, Cody, I'm not going to touch 1232 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:25,320 Speaker 5: on that judge right now. There's way too much to 1233 00:55:25,360 --> 00:55:25,680 Speaker 5: get into. 1234 00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:26,200 Speaker 6: I love you, though. 1235 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:30,400 Speaker 5: Howie Booth I think is his name, relieved of his duties, 1236 00:55:31,560 --> 00:55:33,400 Speaker 5: all right, so we'll see what happens. But for me, 1237 00:55:33,640 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 5: you know, Whitaker is canniball coming Kamzat Chimayev is going 1238 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:38,800 Speaker 5: to fight Robert Whitaker at UFC three oh eight in October, 1239 00:55:38,960 --> 00:55:40,840 Speaker 5: and the winner of that fight is going to factor 1240 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:43,719 Speaker 5: prominently in this equation. Dana White was pretty committal about 1241 00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:46,759 Speaker 5: Sean Strickland being next. I think anyone who listens to 1242 00:55:46,840 --> 00:55:50,560 Speaker 5: this show knows that after Strickland be Costa. You know, 1243 00:55:50,719 --> 00:55:53,200 Speaker 5: not that he takes my instructions, but I think he 1244 00:55:53,320 --> 00:55:55,879 Speaker 5: needs to wait for the title shot, and it seems 1245 00:55:55,920 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 5: like he's going to get it, which would mean there's 1246 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:00,399 Speaker 5: sort of a little bit of a log jam there. 1247 00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:02,560 Speaker 5: But yeah, I think Whittaker is probably the guy that 1248 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:04,600 Speaker 5: I think maybe has the best chance in current form 1249 00:56:04,640 --> 00:56:06,360 Speaker 5: to beat duplusive, but he's got a huge challenge in 1250 00:56:06,360 --> 00:56:09,480 Speaker 5: front of him against Kamzat chimai Have real quick. Who 1251 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:13,359 Speaker 5: is next for Israel Adasanya Kenny So I asked DC 1252 00:56:13,600 --> 00:56:15,520 Speaker 5: this question on pay per view and he couldn't even 1253 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:17,719 Speaker 5: necessarily come up with a name right away. We've thrown 1254 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 5: it out there to the masses. Kamza Chimai Have makes 1255 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,640 Speaker 5: some sense. I know Leon Edwards and Izzy are not 1256 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 5: in the same division. I know they are friends. I 1257 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,479 Speaker 5: think there's some management crossover there as well. Leon moving 1258 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 5: up to eighty five without an obvious fight to take on, 1259 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 5: is he has some appeal for me? I couldn't come 1260 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:38,640 Speaker 5: up with an obvious next in line for Izzy, who 1261 00:56:39,520 --> 00:56:42,880 Speaker 5: now has had twelve successive UFC Championship fights and probably 1262 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,719 Speaker 5: won't have thirteen. So what do you think about the 1263 00:56:44,800 --> 00:56:47,280 Speaker 5: future for Audasanya in terms of opponent? 1264 00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:51,200 Speaker 2: Well, I'm not sure. Jack Hermanson has a date that 1265 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:54,960 Speaker 2: I don't know if that gets people, you know, uber excited. 1266 00:56:55,719 --> 00:56:56,480 Speaker 2: Is Brendan Allen? 1267 00:56:57,760 --> 00:56:58,040 Speaker 3: Thank you? 1268 00:56:58,560 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 2: Is it Alan and Vittori that are. 1269 00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 3: Going at it? 1270 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:04,320 Speaker 5: Brendan Allen and nos Sordini mavov are fighting September twenty 1271 00:57:04,360 --> 00:57:05,760 Speaker 5: eighth in Paris, France. 1272 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:09,080 Speaker 2: Oh shit, I mean your Brad, come on, don't make me. 1273 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,719 Speaker 5: Don't make me have fun at at the Joker Jack 1274 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:15,520 Speaker 5: Harmanson's expense. But you really think that that's the type 1275 00:57:15,560 --> 00:57:16,400 Speaker 5: of fight that uh. 1276 00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:18,800 Speaker 9: No, Well, I I just based on that he's beaten 1277 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:20,320 Speaker 9: a lot of these guys, so it's like a lot 1278 00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:21,720 Speaker 9: of them are kind of canceled. What are we gonna 1279 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:24,000 Speaker 9: put you know, Whitker in there for like the fourth time? 1280 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:28,200 Speaker 9: You know, I guess we got, but well we got 1281 00:57:28,240 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 9: in mavov and and Brendan Allen the Winter that why not? 1282 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:33,800 Speaker 6: Why not? No? 1283 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:36,920 Speaker 5: I think a Brendan Allen Israe a lot of Sonia 1284 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:38,680 Speaker 5: fight makes a lot of sense. 1285 00:57:39,120 --> 00:57:39,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I really do. 1286 00:57:42,320 --> 00:57:46,240 Speaker 5: Kyle Bohalio is fighting Jared Cannon here this weekend. I 1287 00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 5: think a bow Hoolio is a fight potentially makes some sense. 1288 00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:49,920 Speaker 6: R J. 1289 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:52,240 Speaker 5: Clifford is going to join us in three minutes and 1290 00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:54,600 Speaker 5: he has a fight that he thinks makes a shit 1291 00:57:54,680 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 5: ton of sense. Uh, even if it may surprise some people. 1292 00:57:57,600 --> 00:58:00,680 Speaker 5: It's a very interesting conversation. Nothing more fun than playing 1293 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:05,360 Speaker 5: Matchmaker on a Tuesday afternoon. But it is very interesting 1294 00:58:05,400 --> 00:58:07,760 Speaker 5: because there isn't necessarily an obvious next in line. 1295 00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:10,439 Speaker 2: Can I just say, almost choked on my gum during 1296 00:58:10,480 --> 00:58:12,000 Speaker 2: that segment, So I almost died. 1297 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:14,400 Speaker 5: Yeah, so maybe you should spit it out.

Uh, And 1306 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,200 Speaker 5: I will say too, as far as Alex Padata is concerned, 1307 00:58:42,080 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 5: guy can make eighty five. He didn't move up to 1308 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,560 Speaker 5: two oh five because he couldn't make the weight, despite 1309 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 5: maybe what publicly some would want you to or lead 1310 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:53,120 Speaker 5: you to believe. So don't put it past him at 1311 00:58:53,160 --> 00:58:55,600 Speaker 5: some point. Gosh, we have so much to discuss. Kenny, 1312 00:58:55,640 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 5: what time do you have to leave today? I mean, 1313 00:58:56,960 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 5: Khalil Rowntree Junior is fighting Alex Podata for the championship 1314 00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:02,760 Speaker 5: in salt I mean, how much time do you have podcast? 1315 00:59:02,800 --> 00:59:04,040 Speaker 2: I got the whole afternoon, all right. 1316 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 5: I mean I promised you, at least rundown Wise that 1317 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,080 Speaker 5: you'd be out of here at one twenty. But Cody, 1318 00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:11,800 Speaker 5: anytime RJ's here, Randall Clifford, you can just populate him 1319 00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:13,840 Speaker 5: in the chat. But so many different interesting things. As 1320 00:59:13,840 --> 00:59:16,080 Speaker 5: far as UFC, he's been awight division and obviously a 1321 00:59:16,120 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 5: good opportunity for Kyle will Hollyo taking on the forty 1322 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:22,320 Speaker 5: year old Jared Cannoneer, who of course still has title 1323 00:59:22,360 --> 00:59:25,560 Speaker 5: aspirations of his own, not Sardini Mavov though, the guy 1324 00:59:25,600 --> 00:59:27,800 Speaker 5: that Kenny Thrice. I think his reference right now is 1325 00:59:27,840 --> 00:59:29,600 Speaker 5: a problem for Cannoneer because he beat him head to 1326 00:59:29,640 --> 00:59:32,880 Speaker 5: head in Louisville, and now if he beats Brendan Allen, 1327 00:59:33,080 --> 00:59:34,640 Speaker 5: you know that would be a guy who would be 1328 00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:37,640 Speaker 5: in the way all right now joining us.

So what can you tell 1359 01:00:58,720 --> 01:01:00,960 Speaker 5: us about your past president in future when it comes 1360 01:01:01,000 --> 01:01:02,760 Speaker 5: to the still Ufcmen Away Champion. 1361 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 4: Well, I don't think I'm unlike a lot of other 1362 01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 4: manalysts that just look at him and mix your eyes 1363 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,280 Speaker 4: want to bleed watching him technically, but it's just so 1364 01:01:12,680 --> 01:01:15,920 Speaker 4: goddamn effective, and I think that's the beauty of combat 1365 01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:17,800 Speaker 4: sports is Look, it doesn't have to be exactly how 1366 01:01:17,800 --> 01:01:19,760 Speaker 4: it's supposed to be taught. It doesn't have to be pretty, 1367 01:01:19,800 --> 01:01:22,080 Speaker 4: it doesn't have to be fluid, it doesn't even have 1368 01:01:22,200 --> 01:01:23,760 Speaker 4: to technically even be a move. 1369 01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:28,360 Speaker 5: But if it works, it works, and that's really all 1370 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:28,960 Speaker 5: that matters. 1371 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,600 Speaker 4: I mean, like, I think that's why, you know, when 1372 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,400 Speaker 4: you get so unorthodox and you have like a pretty 1373 01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:37,600 Speaker 4: counter fighter like Israelusnia, the more unorthodox you are, the 1374 01:01:37,680 --> 01:01:39,760 Speaker 4: more it throws him off. Like Kenny, I can't imagine 1375 01:01:39,760 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 4: you've ever had a guy hold mits for you that 1376 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 4: attacked you the way that drinkst du plus he did, 1377 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:44,480 Speaker 4: Like you've. 1378 01:01:44,400 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 5: Never had to drill counters to a charging rhino. So 1379 01:01:48,680 --> 01:01:51,720 Speaker 5: like exactly, you're gonna get thrown off, right, Like how 1380 01:01:51,760 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 5: do you counter that? 1381 01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:55,000 Speaker 4: And and and you know, with all due respect to 1382 01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:58,280 Speaker 4: our good friend Dean Thomas who's just eviscerating Izzy on 1383 01:01:58,360 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 4: the ESPN post shows, Like I thought, is he looked fantastic, 1384 01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:04,400 Speaker 4: but Dean saying like, well, why is he encountering You know, 1385 01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:06,760 Speaker 4: he wins by staying in the pocket and slip and go. 1386 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 4: It's like, how do you slip a charging rhino like 1387 01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:12,560 Speaker 4: it's a wrecking ball. You have to stay at distance. 1388 01:02:12,600 --> 01:02:16,160 Speaker 4: So I thought Izzy looked absolutely fantastic, and it was 1389 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 4: it was Dracas just being being as drink as as 1390 01:02:19,680 --> 01:02:20,480 Speaker 4: dreak as he can get. 1391 01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:23,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, and it's it's always easier said than done, right, 1392 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:29,760 Speaker 9: And I also think that Dricus is so good about 1393 01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 9: making it oftentimes about physicality, and he brings those physical 1394 01:02:34,440 --> 01:02:35,720 Speaker 9: strengths his durability. 1395 01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:38,120 Speaker 2: So I guess my question for you is, and and 1396 01:02:38,440 --> 01:02:41,280 Speaker 2: I have my doubts, right, but it is this a 1397 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:43,000 Speaker 2: long term plant? 1398 01:02:43,160 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 9: Can he be successful three four or five years into 1399 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,280 Speaker 9: the future with this kind of style? 1400 01:02:50,400 --> 01:02:53,800 Speaker 4: Do you think, well, it's gotten him this far right, 1401 01:02:53,920 --> 01:02:58,400 Speaker 4: twenty four fights fighting this way. He's only thirty years old, right, 1402 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:03,440 Speaker 4: and he really hasn't taken tons of damage. I mean, 1403 01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:05,400 Speaker 4: he had a two division champion EFC, he was a 1404 01:03:05,440 --> 01:03:07,960 Speaker 4: KSW champion, and he's still like he's never not in 1405 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:08,960 Speaker 4: a ton of wars. 1406 01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:09,400 Speaker 6: Right. 1407 01:03:09,480 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 4: He's been knocked out before, very early in his career, 1408 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,880 Speaker 4: and him and Sean Stricklan obviously with twenty five minutes, 1409 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:17,040 Speaker 4: but he got Runs out of there in two rounds. 1410 01:03:17,120 --> 01:03:19,760 Speaker 5: He got Winiker out of there in two rounds. 1411 01:03:19,840 --> 01:03:21,280 Speaker 4: I mean, it's, as you know, o case, it's not 1412 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:23,440 Speaker 4: the years, it's the miles, and he's he's got a 1413 01:03:23,480 --> 01:03:25,960 Speaker 4: fighting style that it just works perfectly for him, and 1414 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 4: it hasn't slowed him down yet. So I mean, if 1415 01:03:28,600 --> 01:03:31,240 Speaker 4: you start seeing him being you know, like Whittaker and 1416 01:03:31,320 --> 01:03:33,400 Speaker 4: Uel Romero a couple twenty five rounders, I'd have a 1417 01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 4: different conversation here, But for now it's working because he 1418 01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:38,000 Speaker 4: hasn't taken any damage. 1419 01:03:39,480 --> 01:03:41,840 Speaker 9: We were just talking about who we think might be 1420 01:03:41,880 --> 01:03:44,040 Speaker 9: an interesting challenge for him, for a guy that could 1421 01:03:44,200 --> 01:03:46,480 Speaker 9: could beat him. Do you have a name that comes 1422 01:03:46,520 --> 01:03:48,680 Speaker 9: to mind that you think could be able to beat 1423 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:50,120 Speaker 9: someone like Drickistuplissi? 1424 01:03:51,560 --> 01:03:53,280 Speaker 4: No, And I was just having this conversation on my 1425 01:03:53,360 --> 01:03:56,000 Speaker 4: show yesterday where like, look, he's already beaten one, two 1426 01:03:56,040 --> 01:04:00,560 Speaker 4: and three in the division, and whoever comes up next, 1427 01:04:00,800 --> 01:04:03,880 Speaker 4: Like he's going to be a decent betting favorite against 1428 01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,320 Speaker 4: probably you know, Strickland. It seems like that the rematch 1429 01:04:06,440 --> 01:04:07,680 Speaker 4: is going to be next, and then maybe is he 1430 01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:10,720 Speaker 4: down the line and then some version of a rematch 1431 01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 4: with Whitaker Hams at CHAMAIV. Brandon Allen's obviously on that Taale, 1432 01:04:13,880 --> 01:04:15,400 Speaker 4: Like he's going to be a betting favorite against all 1433 01:04:15,440 --> 01:04:17,960 Speaker 4: these guys, and he'll be under thirty three for all 1434 01:04:18,000 --> 01:04:18,240 Speaker 4: of them. 1435 01:04:18,320 --> 01:04:20,480 Speaker 5: Like he's staring down a real possibility. 1436 01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:22,560 Speaker 4: The next eighteen to twenty four months we're calling in 1437 01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 4: the second Mess has been weight of all time behind 1438 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:27,240 Speaker 4: Anderson Silva, just because the challenges that are up for 1439 01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,400 Speaker 4: him are good names and well accomplished fighters. 1440 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,360 Speaker 5: But stylistically, you know. 1441 01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:34,240 Speaker 4: Maybe I'm just you know, I can look back, you know, 1442 01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 4: six months from now and Strickland beats him. I sound 1443 01:04:36,240 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 4: like an idiot, but from where I sit now on 1444 01:04:38,600 --> 01:04:42,440 Speaker 4: August twentieth, twenty twenty four, he's looking at some some 1445 01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,320 Speaker 4: big games that he should be favorites against. 1446 01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:45,560 Speaker 2: Okay, I agree. 1447 01:04:45,720 --> 01:04:47,480 Speaker 9: I don't see a middleway right now that that it's 1448 01:04:47,480 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 9: gonna be a big challenge. But I'll get you out 1449 01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:54,640 Speaker 9: with this. This is my last question. Are you excited 1450 01:04:54,680 --> 01:04:57,040 Speaker 9: about a potential matchup against Perreira? 1451 01:04:59,680 --> 01:04:59,919 Speaker 6: Yeah? 1452 01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:01,919 Speaker 2: Something? Is that something you'd want to see? 1453 01:05:02,520 --> 01:05:05,800 Speaker 4: Yes, okay, but I just can't imagine him just not 1454 01:05:06,000 --> 01:05:09,960 Speaker 4: blast doubling Pereira at will whenever like he'd be. 1455 01:05:10,040 --> 01:05:12,320 Speaker 5: He'd probably be a two to one favorite against Alex Paetta. 1456 01:05:12,400 --> 01:05:13,600 Speaker 5: I'm you know, I'm gonna. I'm gonna. 1457 01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:17,200 Speaker 4: I don't make the lines, but just watching him blast double, 1458 01:05:17,280 --> 01:05:20,080 Speaker 4: is he everywhere? And then is he out wrestled Alex 1459 01:05:20,200 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 4: Pada and got the only take done of his career 1460 01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:24,400 Speaker 4: against Alex. I mean, I'm sure I Alex has been 1461 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,880 Speaker 4: working on it ever since, but you know, the fun fight. 1462 01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 4: I'd wish that fight to be. I think, you know, 1463 01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 4: I think Drigs just puts on his wrestling shoes and 1464 01:05:32,400 --> 01:05:33,880 Speaker 4: single it and takes care of business. 1465 01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:36,600 Speaker 5: Well, I just hope if Sean Strickland out points dreak 1466 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 5: is due plus in his second title defense, that this 1467 01:05:41,200 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 5: last three fight stretch of his historically doesn't get lost 1468 01:05:44,680 --> 01:05:47,120 Speaker 5: on people. You know, because I think r J that 1469 01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,840 Speaker 5: eighty five is so strong that, you know, you can 1470 01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:52,000 Speaker 5: suggest that maybe he'd be two to one over Alex. 1471 01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 5: I think him and Strickland is probably pretty close to 1472 01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:58,240 Speaker 5: even money, as would maybe an Adustania rematch be unless 1473 01:05:58,280 --> 01:06:00,280 Speaker 5: you think I'm off on that. You know, maybe he'd 1474 01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:02,080 Speaker 5: be two to one against Whittaker, but that might be 1475 01:06:02,120 --> 01:06:03,840 Speaker 5: the guy that I would send in there. You know, 1476 01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 5: I think so highly of all of the middleweights of 1477 01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:08,240 Speaker 5: his era that I'm not sure he can reign for 1478 01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:10,960 Speaker 5: a long time just because one of these guys might 1479 01:06:11,000 --> 01:06:13,800 Speaker 5: beat him. But it sounds like people that are sharper 1480 01:06:13,840 --> 01:06:15,720 Speaker 5: than me, like you and Kenny and maybe even Ray 1481 01:06:15,880 --> 01:06:18,600 Speaker 5: just feel like this win maybe is going to propel 1482 01:06:18,720 --> 01:06:20,200 Speaker 5: him to an even greater level. 1483 01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:22,680 Speaker 4: I don't know well, And also maybe it's it's it's 1484 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,640 Speaker 4: me kind of like trying to make up for how 1485 01:06:25,800 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 4: little I appreciate what he was doing for a while. 1486 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:30,800 Speaker 4: He like when he when he was booked against Robert Whittaker, 1487 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 4: I'm like, this is as easy of a slam dunk 1488 01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:35,280 Speaker 4: as exists in picking fights. Like Whittaker does not lose 1489 01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 4: to anybody not named Israelda Sonya just watching him just 1490 01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 4: lunge forward, jaw open. 1491 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:42,760 Speaker 5: I'm like, oh, Whittker's gonna do what he wants. He 1492 01:06:42,880 --> 01:06:43,919 Speaker 5: ends him in seven minutes. 1493 01:06:43,960 --> 01:06:45,520 Speaker 4: And it's like I don't know anything about Mma, I 1494 01:06:45,600 --> 01:06:48,400 Speaker 4: don't know this war whatsoever, but it just he just keeps. 1495 01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:51,720 Speaker 4: He just has a style that works for him, and 1496 01:06:52,680 --> 01:06:55,320 Speaker 4: no one trains it. You can't learn, like I used 1497 01:06:55,320 --> 01:06:57,640 Speaker 4: to always say, like you know, when Dominic Cruz was 1498 01:06:57,680 --> 01:07:00,200 Speaker 4: at his peak, right, yes, just crushing it. He was 1499 01:07:00,240 --> 01:07:02,000 Speaker 4: one of the best strikers of all time, you know, 1500 01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:05,200 Speaker 4: best strikers in MMA. If I was training somebody, I 1501 01:07:05,200 --> 01:07:07,520 Speaker 4: would never train him to strike like Dominant Cruz because 1502 01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:10,000 Speaker 4: it's just it's just so very cam It's so layered that, 1503 01:07:10,160 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 4: like the fundamentals you have to learn when you're getting started, like, 1504 01:07:12,920 --> 01:07:15,800 Speaker 4: it's just just so advanced beyond that, you would never 1505 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,960 Speaker 4: train anyone to fight like Drikus. You like, you should 1506 01:07:19,000 --> 01:07:21,680 Speaker 4: take your They don't give licenses for MMA trainers, but 1507 01:07:21,720 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 4: we should have it taken away and burnt if you 1508 01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 4: were teaching someone to fight like Drikus. 1509 01:07:26,160 --> 01:07:29,920 Speaker 5: But his style is all its own and it hasn't 1510 01:07:29,960 --> 01:07:33,480 Speaker 5: been stopped in the UFC. Yeah, I said earlier, his 1511 01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:36,480 Speaker 5: coach wished that he hadn't been a pro kick boxer 1512 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:39,000 Speaker 5: thirty three times over because he had to train him 1513 01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:40,960 Speaker 5: out of a lot of habits that Morne doesn't think 1514 01:07:40,960 --> 01:07:43,320 Speaker 5: are great for MMA. I don't know if you have 1515 01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 5: anything on that randall. I mean, I don't know. I 1516 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:51,560 Speaker 5: just feel like Dominic Cruz, even though he was perpetually misunderstood, 1517 01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:54,960 Speaker 5: you know, wasn't banged on as much as this guy 1518 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:55,640 Speaker 5: is banged on. 1519 01:07:55,760 --> 01:07:56,120 Speaker 6: I don't know. 1520 01:07:58,480 --> 01:08:00,880 Speaker 4: I think you just make some stronger though, you know, 1521 01:08:01,280 --> 01:08:04,960 Speaker 4: like Popeye the spinach every time, like that's it, Like 1522 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:06,680 Speaker 4: his hands are Popeye's hands. 1523 01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:10,439 Speaker 5: It's uh like Biggie Boy, man, you don't forget every again. 1524 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:12,680 Speaker 5: I got to shake Biggie Boy's hand three times in Perth, 1525 01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:15,520 Speaker 5: you know, and the last one was the worst, you know, 1526 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:18,040 Speaker 5: like a tattoo. Almost at that point in time, it's like, 1527 01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 5: Biggie Boy, enough, dude, I feel it in my fucking elbow. 1528 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,960 Speaker 5: But yeah, man, you're right, it's fucking Popeye. Do that's 1529 01:08:24,000 --> 01:08:26,080 Speaker 5: the perfect nickname, as you often have the right thing 1530 01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 5: to say. 1531 01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:29,120 Speaker 4: Well, it's like, you know, the old saying, like you know, 1532 01:08:29,160 --> 01:08:30,680 Speaker 4: everyone has a game plan to you get punched in 1533 01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:32,720 Speaker 4: the face. I feel like Drecus doesn't remember his game 1534 01:08:32,760 --> 01:08:35,479 Speaker 4: plan until he gets punched in the face. Then he's like, Oh, okay, 1535 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:37,680 Speaker 4: I'm gonna I'm gonna be me now, I'm gonna be 1536 01:08:37,720 --> 01:08:38,400 Speaker 4: a charging rhino. 1537 01:08:40,080 --> 01:08:42,880 Speaker 5: R J Clifford with us live on the Anakin Florian podcast. So, 1538 01:08:44,680 --> 01:08:48,639 Speaker 5: in terms of who might be next for Israel, Sonya 1539 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:52,479 Speaker 5: at Sonya the last style bender not an obvious name 1540 01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:55,400 Speaker 5: on the tip of my tongue. We've talked a lot 1541 01:08:55,439 --> 01:08:58,599 Speaker 5: about this today. I know you had some interesting thoughts 1542 01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:01,040 Speaker 5: on this, Uh, in tern terms of a name that 1543 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 5: maybe is a little bit more out there than some 1544 01:09:03,520 --> 01:09:06,680 Speaker 5: of the obvious choices. He obviously has some ideas. Shut up, 1545 01:09:07,920 --> 01:09:08,599 Speaker 5: I flip the dog. 1546 01:09:09,400 --> 01:09:09,519 Speaker 10: Uh. 1547 01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:12,640 Speaker 4: It's a very very hard one, right because like the 1548 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:16,479 Speaker 4: guy's had twelve consecutive title fights. Can you imagine him 1549 01:09:16,640 --> 01:09:18,920 Speaker 4: just like getting thrown back into gen pop and like 1550 01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:20,599 Speaker 4: having to work his way back up. 1551 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:23,920 Speaker 5: Bro, Sorry to cut you off. So Ken Flow earlier 1552 01:09:24,040 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 5: made the mistake of suggesting Jack Hermanson. 1553 01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:31,360 Speaker 2: It's my worst moment on podcast history. 1554 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:37,960 Speaker 8: As I'm sure he is excited about it lives every week. 1555 01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:43,200 Speaker 8: But christ, Uh, I've heard. 1556 01:09:43,080 --> 01:09:45,840 Speaker 5: The name bon Nickel thrown around, and I like that 1557 01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 5: name because you've got Bo's obviously so young in his career. 1558 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:51,280 Speaker 4: He has a chance to beat a big name and 1559 01:09:52,120 --> 01:09:55,599 Speaker 4: really catapult himself up into the upper echelon of the division. 1560 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:56,960 Speaker 5: And if he loses, he's just getting started. 1561 01:09:57,000 --> 01:09:59,400 Speaker 4: He can always come back around, right I think is 1562 01:09:59,520 --> 01:10:02,000 Speaker 4: he's at the point of his career and at thirty 1563 01:10:02,080 --> 01:10:04,960 Speaker 4: five years old. Look, I'm a big believer in that, 1564 01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,080 Speaker 4: Like the young the old in combat sport and as 1565 01:10:07,080 --> 01:10:08,599 Speaker 4: you get up there in age, is your job? 1566 01:10:09,120 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 5: Is your responsibility? 1567 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,400 Speaker 4: Dare I say to fight the young up and comers 1568 01:10:12,439 --> 01:10:14,080 Speaker 4: and either they beat you and I kill you. I 1569 01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:16,680 Speaker 4: would come you, or you send them backpacking and you've 1570 01:10:16,760 --> 01:10:18,120 Speaker 4: proven that you're still top. 1571 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:18,479 Speaker 5: Of the mountain. 1572 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 4: I think that's where isral Sonya has to be right now. 1573 01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:24,600 Speaker 4: It's got to be a young guy, right, It's got 1574 01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:27,000 Speaker 4: to be like a sexy name like that. I can 1575 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:29,400 Speaker 4: see him like Comaine eventing a pay per view in 1576 01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:32,479 Speaker 4: a matchup that I just can't see him fighting a 1577 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 4: Mavov or just like a Gen pop matchup. 1578 01:10:35,439 --> 01:10:38,519 Speaker 5: Yes, right, maybe maybe he named. 1579 01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:39,920 Speaker 2: A guy who's not even in the top fifteen and 1580 01:10:39,960 --> 01:10:40,960 Speaker 2: we're we're like cool with that? 1581 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:41,439 Speaker 6: Is that is? 1582 01:10:41,439 --> 01:10:41,479 Speaker 3: That? 1583 01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 2: Is that what we're doing? 1584 01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:42,599 Speaker 3: Well? 1585 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,400 Speaker 5: So it's interesting and we had a long winded conversation 1586 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 5: about this, the relative sexiness of Bo Nicholas a name 1587 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:52,080 Speaker 5: or Hamzat Chimayev. If he's not immediately in a championship 1588 01:10:52,080 --> 01:10:54,559 Speaker 5: setting because of Sean Strickland, you can certainly do worse 1589 01:10:54,680 --> 01:10:58,559 Speaker 5: than having a rematch between Duplessi and Strickland, and then 1590 01:10:58,600 --> 01:11:01,519 Speaker 5: also having is he on that against Chimaiav. I know 1591 01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:04,519 Speaker 5: it's ambitious when you talk about like a competition cycle, 1592 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 5: but is He's not going to just sit around? 1593 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:06,360 Speaker 3: Right? 1594 01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:09,400 Speaker 5: He just sat for a year, So the bon Nikola 1595 01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:12,320 Speaker 5: I paused when RJ said it, But I actually think 1596 01:11:12,360 --> 01:11:14,519 Speaker 5: there's actually some meat on the bone, and I think 1597 01:11:14,640 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 5: Dana White and Hunter Campbell would probably be a little 1598 01:11:16,560 --> 01:11:17,080 Speaker 5: bit intrigued. 1599 01:11:18,320 --> 01:11:20,680 Speaker 4: Well, I know, I'm still I'm still very intrigued by 1600 01:11:20,680 --> 01:11:21,920 Speaker 4: the trilogy with Alex Paheta. 1601 01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:22,840 Speaker 5: I think that has to buy. 1602 01:11:22,960 --> 01:11:24,880 Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I don't want to before either one of 1603 01:11:24,960 --> 01:11:27,959 Speaker 4: them retire. I think that needs to happen. Obviously, Alex's 1604 01:11:28,000 --> 01:11:31,519 Speaker 4: options have really opened up. Yeah, tek on clear around Tren, 1605 01:11:31,560 --> 01:11:33,360 Speaker 4: He's obviously got his hands full. But if they would 1606 01:11:33,520 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 4: just book Magamut Angliav in the title fight that he 1607 01:11:36,960 --> 01:11:39,680 Speaker 4: deserves to be in, he will beat Alex Paheta and 1608 01:11:39,760 --> 01:11:43,160 Speaker 4: then we can do that trilogy with Alex and Izzy 1609 01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:46,160 Speaker 4: and then all albums are solved and everyone has their matchups. 1610 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,200 Speaker 4: But yeah, I don't know, those matchmakers have a different 1611 01:11:48,240 --> 01:11:48,720 Speaker 4: ideas than me. 1612 01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:52,080 Speaker 5: Yeah, and Alexander Rokitch another p one Anakin Florin podcast 1613 01:11:52,160 --> 01:11:54,439 Speaker 5: listeners should be careful because he's fighting Magma and Ankhla 1614 01:11:54,520 --> 01:11:56,400 Speaker 5: Butt UFC three oh eight.

He just kind of 1626 01:12:30,880 --> 01:12:33,559 Speaker 4: keeps getting stuck in these like you know, keep busy fights. 1627 01:12:33,960 --> 01:12:35,479 Speaker 4: He waited as an alternate and you're like, oh, this 1628 01:12:35,560 --> 01:12:37,080 Speaker 4: poor guy, I can't do it. He's just gonna buy 1629 01:12:37,120 --> 01:12:38,880 Speaker 4: Dan Hooker. Dan Hooker goes out there and has the 1630 01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:44,080 Speaker 4: best fight of his life and looked absolutely fantastic beating Gamra. 1631 01:12:44,240 --> 01:12:48,200 Speaker 4: And I've been not as high on Dan Hooker obviously 1632 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:50,320 Speaker 4: as a as an exciting fighter and as a personality, 1633 01:12:50,360 --> 01:12:51,000 Speaker 4: and he's great. 1634 01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:53,400 Speaker 5: I think when he got that decision. 1635 01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:56,040 Speaker 4: Over Paul Felder, I think it catapulted up a little 1636 01:12:56,360 --> 01:12:59,600 Speaker 4: higher up than I think maybe his skill set was 1637 01:12:59,680 --> 01:13:01,960 Speaker 4: ready for at that point in his career, but he 1638 01:13:02,040 --> 01:13:05,040 Speaker 4: looked great against Gamroth, and what a revitalization of the 1639 01:13:05,120 --> 01:13:08,680 Speaker 4: career for a fan favor like Dan Hooker. And you know, 1640 01:13:08,760 --> 01:13:12,400 Speaker 4: Gamrock was the big conversation coming in is I think 1641 01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:15,320 Speaker 4: Gamrock's kind of not taking away to win from Dan Hooker. 1642 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:17,519 Speaker 4: But I think Gamrock was looking at this like I 1643 01:13:17,640 --> 01:13:19,519 Speaker 4: have to start being exciting if I'm going to be 1644 01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:21,360 Speaker 4: in title contention, because I keep winning and start doing 1645 01:13:21,400 --> 01:13:21,960 Speaker 4: anything for me. 1646 01:13:22,400 --> 01:13:23,200 Speaker 5: And I think he kind of. 1647 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:26,000 Speaker 4: Let that dictate a little bit of his style, and 1648 01:13:26,120 --> 01:13:28,200 Speaker 4: that was certainly something that Dan hook If you want 1649 01:13:28,240 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 4: to fight that way with Dan Hooker, you are playing 1650 01:13:30,280 --> 01:13:30,679 Speaker 4: with fire. 1651 01:13:31,240 --> 01:13:32,640 Speaker 5: Well, dude. And I don't know if you heard me 1652 01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:36,160 Speaker 5: on broadcast, but Mattoos comes right over the broadcast booth 1653 01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 5: and just starts screaming like boring, boring this, you know, 1654 01:13:39,280 --> 01:13:41,040 Speaker 5: And I couldn't exactly pick up what he was saying. 1655 01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:42,960 Speaker 5: And here I'm thinking it's like, hey, dude, that was 1656 01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 5: exciting as fuck, but I think you lost. You know, 1657 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:48,280 Speaker 5: I know some people thought Mattaw's gamrot won the fight, 1658 01:13:48,360 --> 01:13:51,560 Speaker 5: but yeah, just a tremendous weekend overall. So how was 1659 01:13:51,600 --> 01:13:53,519 Speaker 5: the trip back for you from Perth? 1660 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:54,000 Speaker 6: Wa? 1661 01:13:54,120 --> 01:13:57,720 Speaker 4: Okay, I've mastered the art of putting myself in a 1662 01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:00,400 Speaker 4: coma on these long flights. You stay away as long 1663 01:14:00,439 --> 01:14:02,599 Speaker 4: as possible. Yeah right, you get your blood alcohol level 1664 01:14:02,640 --> 01:14:05,400 Speaker 4: exactly where you want it. But I saved those those 1665 01:14:05,439 --> 01:14:08,679 Speaker 4: global upgrades for the Australia trips. 1666 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:12,120 Speaker 5: So I landed land around six am. I was on 1667 01:14:12,160 --> 01:14:14,679 Speaker 5: the radio at nine am hours later. 1668 01:14:15,000 --> 01:14:16,800 Speaker 4: And I was able to stay awake all last night 1669 01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:19,240 Speaker 4: or yesterday to be able to all sleep now. So 1670 01:14:19,840 --> 01:14:22,200 Speaker 4: it's it's taken a lot of brain cells away from me. 1671 01:14:22,280 --> 01:14:24,680 Speaker 4: I'm assuming. Yeah, it's got me on air. 1672 01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:27,120 Speaker 5: I need to be.

So 1699 01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:31,479 Speaker 5: we have not uttered the name Kai Kat de France. 1700 01:15:31,520 --> 01:15:33,519 Speaker 5: We have not talked to you about Dan Hooker and 1701 01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:37,200 Speaker 5: Mattauje Gamrot. It's a little more respect for the T shirt. 1702 01:15:37,280 --> 01:15:40,080 Speaker 5: Don't hunt. What you can't kill is Dan Hooker, cat man. 1703 01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:43,120 Speaker 5: It's unbelievable. It's unbelievable to watch, for me, the progression 1704 01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,679 Speaker 5: of human being. If I'm not mistaken, Kenny, and maybe 1705 01:15:45,720 --> 01:15:48,400 Speaker 5: I am. You called hiss UFC debut in Auckland in 1706 01:15:48,439 --> 01:15:51,920 Speaker 5: twenty fourteen. Perhaps you didn't. I've never been to Auckland myself. 1707 01:15:52,200 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 5: It sounds like you were not there for that debut. 1708 01:15:54,280 --> 01:15:56,719 Speaker 2: I called his I called his fight against hatsu Hioki. 1709 01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:57,400 Speaker 2: I remember that. 1710 01:15:57,720 --> 01:16:00,840 Speaker 5: Okay, that is so, But dude, like, what were your 1711 01:16:00,880 --> 01:16:04,680 Speaker 5: thoughts on his performance and overall, what do you think 1712 01:16:04,680 --> 01:16:06,760 Speaker 5: about this new look Dan Hooker In more ways than one. 1713 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 9: I loved his performance. He's a guy that's going to 1714 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:13,680 Speaker 9: fight to the very end. I'm not sure I had 1715 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:14,479 Speaker 9: him winning the fight. 1716 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 3: It was close. 1717 01:16:15,160 --> 01:16:16,880 Speaker 9: It was close, definitely could have gone either way. I 1718 01:16:16,960 --> 01:16:19,000 Speaker 9: don't have a problem with the decision. I thought Gamrock 1719 01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:20,679 Speaker 9: was going to get the NOD based on the first 1720 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:21,360 Speaker 9: two rounds. 1721 01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:26,639 Speaker 2: But as far as who was really trying to finish 1722 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:30,040 Speaker 2: the fight throughout, I think that guy was Dan Hooker, 1723 01:16:31,080 --> 01:16:35,240 Speaker 2: as I mean, that's his style, right, yeah, always entertaining. 1724 01:16:35,640 --> 01:16:38,679 Speaker 2: I thought that he did way, way, way, way, way 1725 01:16:38,720 --> 01:16:39,880 Speaker 2: better than I thought he would. 1726 01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 9: Yeah, and because of that, it just made it that 1727 01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:45,040 Speaker 9: much more impressive, especially given the fact of how he 1728 01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,400 Speaker 9: was able to turn the tie through some of those 1729 01:16:47,560 --> 01:16:50,439 Speaker 9: rounds where you know, it wasn't going so well for him, 1730 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:52,679 Speaker 9: and then he came back and was like, I'm now I'm. 1731 01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:55,000 Speaker 2: Going to kill you, and it just it riled up 1732 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:58,920 Speaker 2: the fans. It looked awesome. You know, he's always bleeding 1733 01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:00,760 Speaker 2: at the end of a fight, it's TEMs and just 1734 01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:03,400 Speaker 2: knows how to deliver an action packed fight. So because 1735 01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,800 Speaker 2: of that, I thought it was an amazing performance. 1736 01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:08,679 Speaker 9: But I did think Gamrock was going to get the NOD, 1737 01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:11,280 Speaker 9: and I think that, you know, there's a lot of 1738 01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:14,160 Speaker 9: truth to what RJ was talking about. You know, I 1739 01:17:14,200 --> 01:17:17,439 Speaker 9: think him trying to be exciting and also maybe going 1740 01:17:17,479 --> 01:17:21,120 Speaker 9: a little too hard unnecessarily, you know, I think he was, yeah, 1741 01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:22,479 Speaker 9: you know, try trying to look for a lot of 1742 01:17:22,479 --> 01:17:25,000 Speaker 9: ground and pound when it wasn't necessary. He didn't quite 1743 01:17:25,040 --> 01:17:27,160 Speaker 9: have the position that he needs to. And that's what 1744 01:17:27,280 --> 01:17:29,680 Speaker 9: you need to do against Hooker. You cannot let him 1745 01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:32,439 Speaker 9: come back to life, and you need to drain him 1746 01:17:32,520 --> 01:17:34,280 Speaker 9: of his energy. You need to drain him of his 1747 01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:37,120 Speaker 9: positioning and allowing Hooker to get back to his feet, 1748 01:17:37,160 --> 01:17:39,639 Speaker 9: You're asking for trouble, and I think that's what Gambro 1749 01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,479 Speaker 9: did and ended up not being such a great result 1750 01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:43,040 Speaker 9: because of that. 1751 01:17:43,400 --> 01:17:46,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, Gamrock definitely realized success with his striking. I thought 1752 01:17:46,800 --> 01:17:50,400 Speaker 5: in some part he hadn't ever looked better when it 1753 01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 5: came to his hands. And I think it's tricky, right 1754 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:55,439 Speaker 5: a guy like that, when you have such a clear 1755 01:17:55,560 --> 01:17:58,800 Speaker 5: path of least resistance that you sometimes wonder how would 1756 01:17:58,840 --> 01:18:01,280 Speaker 5: I fare in a straight kick boxing match against Dan Hooker, 1757 01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:03,080 Speaker 5: Like I think I can fucking beat this guy. You know, 1758 01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:05,759 Speaker 5: But I thought it was a close fight. Very surprised 1759 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:07,600 Speaker 5: that our producer Cody Merrill put his job on the 1760 01:18:07,640 --> 01:18:10,040 Speaker 5: line with some of those Matash Gamrock tweets incidentally over 1761 01:18:10,080 --> 01:18:12,599 Speaker 5: the weekend, you know. But doesn't sound like you were, well, 1762 01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:15,040 Speaker 5: you believe gamrat one. You were as as put off 1763 01:18:15,080 --> 01:18:18,200 Speaker 5: by the split decision as a Ken Flow or as 1764 01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:19,120 Speaker 5: Cody I should say. 1765 01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, listen, I I it was close. It 1766 01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:25,360 Speaker 9: was close, so you don't have a huge problem. Not 1767 01:18:25,479 --> 01:18:27,479 Speaker 9: our crazy surprise, let's put it that way. 1768 01:18:28,400 --> 01:18:31,360 Speaker 5: Not close. Kaikt de France against Steve Erseeg the knockout 1769 01:18:31,400 --> 01:18:33,640 Speaker 5: comes at four or four of round one. 1770 01:18:33,760 --> 01:18:34,640 Speaker 6: What do you have for us on that? 1771 01:18:35,520 --> 01:18:37,040 Speaker 2: Okay, so two things. 1772 01:18:37,520 --> 01:18:43,080 Speaker 9: I think that given the early nature of Erseg's career, 1773 01:18:43,920 --> 01:18:46,040 Speaker 9: I maybe gave him a little bit too much credit. 1774 01:18:46,800 --> 01:18:50,280 Speaker 9: Given the recent results of Kaikr a Frantz, I don't 1775 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:54,000 Speaker 9: think I gave him enough credit. And I think that 1776 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:59,120 Speaker 9: perhaps Erseg maybe underestimated kay Car a Frantz as well. 1777 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:03,320 Speaker 2: And clearly he is not someone that you can do 1778 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:06,200 Speaker 2: that too. He came in riled up. 1779 01:19:06,479 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 9: You could see he wanted to go out there not 1780 01:19:08,240 --> 01:19:11,080 Speaker 9: only win, but he wanted to make a statement or sake. 1781 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:16,519 Speaker 9: Perhaps a little bit too relaxed and caught him slipping. Man, 1782 01:19:16,640 --> 01:19:19,800 Speaker 9: kay Car France, he is a knockout artist in that way, 1783 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:23,000 Speaker 9: and you cannot forget about that, and his ability to 1784 01:19:23,080 --> 01:19:26,000 Speaker 9: get on the inside and land those shots and follow 1785 01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:28,640 Speaker 9: up and have that killer instinct and execute. 1786 01:19:29,240 --> 01:19:31,280 Speaker 2: Props to Kai Car France. Man, that was awesome. 1787 01:19:31,840 --> 01:19:33,960 Speaker 5: I think he's going to be next for Aleschandre Pantoja. 1788 01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:36,600 Speaker 5: I wouldn't be surprised to see that be your co 1789 01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:39,160 Speaker 5: headliner maybe for the December pay per view. 1790 01:19:39,520 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 2: I agree. 1791 01:19:40,040 --> 01:19:42,000 Speaker 5: When I look at the flyweight rankings, I look at 1792 01:19:42,000 --> 01:19:44,400 Speaker 5: the close nature of Kai's fight against Amir al Basi, 1793 01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:47,760 Speaker 5: I think he very well might be next. And you know, 1794 01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:49,840 Speaker 5: when it comes to some of the guys in this region, 1795 01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:53,880 Speaker 5: Jack Dela, Matt Atlanta, Kaikta France got an entire region 1796 01:19:54,000 --> 01:19:56,880 Speaker 5: behind you, and that really plays a role. You know, 1797 01:19:57,280 --> 01:19:58,880 Speaker 5: it'd be a big deal if either one of those 1798 01:19:58,920 --> 01:20:01,439 Speaker 5: guys could potentially become a champion, you know, not unlike 1799 01:20:01,439 --> 01:20:04,040 Speaker 5: it would have been for Steve Versag, but yeah, it's interesting. 1800 01:20:04,080 --> 01:20:05,640 Speaker 5: Steve ver Seg has asked a lot of himself in 1801 01:20:05,680 --> 01:20:09,040 Speaker 5: twenty twenty four. And I will say for these WA athletes, 1802 01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:12,479 Speaker 5: the Western Australia athletes, whenever they have to travel, it's 1803 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:14,280 Speaker 5: just a huge deal. You know, the guy comes to 1804 01:20:14,360 --> 01:20:16,759 Speaker 5: Vegas to fight mattch Schnell, goes home, EETs a twinkie, 1805 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,080 Speaker 5: flies to Brazil to fight all the chanre Pantoje. It's 1806 01:20:19,120 --> 01:20:21,160 Speaker 5: hard to get from Perth to Brazil and then right 1807 01:20:21,240 --> 01:20:23,800 Speaker 5: back into camp to fight on the Perth Show at 1808 01:20:23,840 --> 01:20:26,320 Speaker 5: home against Kai Cotta France. And again I don't want 1809 01:20:26,360 --> 01:20:28,439 Speaker 5: to take away from Kai, but I think a reset 1810 01:20:28,479 --> 01:20:30,400 Speaker 5: would be useful for Steve Verseegg. He's still on the 1811 01:20:30,439 --> 01:20:33,080 Speaker 5: right side of thirty. But Kai is a really good guy, 1812 01:20:33,280 --> 01:20:35,439 Speaker 5: very thoughtful fighter, a very hard working fighter, and I 1813 01:20:35,520 --> 01:20:38,639 Speaker 5: feel very good for him and nice for a guy 1814 01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:41,200 Speaker 5: like Kai who has accrued all of this experience to 1815 01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:45,519 Speaker 5: be reaping the rewards. It's pretty impressive. Bonus winners Kai 1816 01:20:45,600 --> 01:20:48,880 Speaker 5: Kata France, Carlos Protest Fighter, The night Dan Hooker Versus 1817 01:20:48,960 --> 01:20:53,479 Speaker 5: mattauj Gamrot Carlos The Nightmare Protest. What a week for him. 1818 01:20:53,600 --> 01:20:56,280 Speaker 5: This was his birthday. His daughter is Australian. She is 1819 01:20:56,400 --> 01:20:59,439 Speaker 5: four and out of respect, I didn't take a video 1820 01:20:59,520 --> 01:21:01,560 Speaker 5: of him and his daughter playing after the win and 1821 01:21:01,640 --> 01:21:03,439 Speaker 5: the lobby, but it was the cutest fucking thing I've 1822 01:21:03,479 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 5: ever seen. And you know, it makes me want to 1823 01:21:05,760 --> 01:21:08,000 Speaker 5: smoke a cigarette with this guy? Can as me want 1824 01:21:08,080 --> 01:21:10,880 Speaker 5: to watch him fight? Michael Venam Page, What do you 1825 01:21:10,920 --> 01:21:13,880 Speaker 5: have for us on the Nightmare Carlos Protests making it? 1826 01:21:14,000 --> 01:21:16,599 Speaker 5: I think ten straight wins if I'm not mistaken. Pretty impressive. 1827 01:21:16,800 --> 01:21:18,400 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean he was a nightmare for the Leech, 1828 01:21:18,439 --> 01:21:21,680 Speaker 9: There's no question about that. I mean, get me on 1829 01:21:21,760 --> 01:21:25,600 Speaker 9: the train. I was really impressed by him. Man, he 1830 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:28,720 Speaker 9: now needs you know, tougher competition. He's ready for it, 1831 01:21:29,240 --> 01:21:33,160 Speaker 9: really coming into his own. A nasty striker, really good 1832 01:21:33,280 --> 01:21:35,880 Speaker 9: length for the division, putting it all together. You know, 1833 01:21:36,520 --> 01:21:38,400 Speaker 9: early on in his career when I was watching him, 1834 01:21:38,439 --> 01:21:40,120 Speaker 9: I was researching a lot of his fights, he was 1835 01:21:40,240 --> 01:21:43,680 Speaker 9: mainly kind of a kicker, really dangerous the knees, good 1836 01:21:43,760 --> 01:21:46,840 Speaker 9: in the clinch, stuff like that. But now has really 1837 01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:50,280 Speaker 9: added in some really good punching combinations into his game 1838 01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:52,559 Speaker 9: and he's going to be a problem for a lot 1839 01:21:52,640 --> 01:21:52,960 Speaker 9: of guys. 1840 01:21:53,000 --> 01:21:53,800 Speaker 2: Man, really cool. 1841 01:21:55,560 --> 01:22:00,400 Speaker 5: So I think they may do Michael Venom Page Carlos protests. Yeah, 1842 01:22:01,000 --> 01:22:03,479 Speaker 5: and it seems like there are some rumblings for Dan 1843 01:22:03,520 --> 01:22:06,320 Speaker 5: Hooker against Charles Olivera. I know he has maybe called 1844 01:22:06,360 --> 01:22:10,559 Speaker 5: for Arman Saregian, who's the number one contender. Yeah, Charles Olivera, 1845 01:22:10,640 --> 01:22:12,600 Speaker 5: Dan Hooker sounds like a lot of fun, you know. 1846 01:22:13,479 --> 01:22:13,920 Speaker 3: I like that. 1847 01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:17,920 Speaker 5: Congrats to biggie boy Jorgino rosenstrike. Tough pill to swallow 1848 01:22:17,960 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 5: for Taitu Ivasa. But Suri Nam's Jorzinho man, you know, 1849 01:22:21,160 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 5: decorated kickboxer, but just continuing to work and to you know, 1850 01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:28,240 Speaker 5: be disciplined. In fight in MMA and just continuing to 1851 01:22:28,320 --> 01:22:31,600 Speaker 5: win fights. We congratulate him. We congratulate a lot of 1852 01:22:31,640 --> 01:22:34,080 Speaker 5: the other preliminary winners for Jack Jenkins back in a 1853 01:22:34,120 --> 01:22:36,160 Speaker 5: big way.

By the way, the beer 1856 01:22:42,360 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 5: Chugging Tournament is in the works, ladies and gentlemen, hopefully 1857 01:22:44,600 --> 01:22:46,519 Speaker 5: happy Dad wants to be on board if you're listening. 1858 01:22:46,600 --> 01:22:50,439 Speaker 5: But basically, josh Kolabau and Dricus Duplessi will be the 1859 01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:53,880 Speaker 5: team captains and they will each be picking a team 1860 01:22:54,080 --> 01:22:57,760 Speaker 5: of UFC fighters, and we will be timing these individuals 1861 01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:01,479 Speaker 5: drinking beer as quickly as the can. I am amazed 1862 01:23:01,479 --> 01:23:04,240 Speaker 5: by UFC athletes and so many different capacities, but their 1863 01:23:04,280 --> 01:23:07,280 Speaker 5: ability some of them, to you know, open their throats 1864 01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:09,160 Speaker 5: so to speak, and just pour a fucking whole cold 1865 01:23:09,200 --> 01:23:12,120 Speaker 5: beer down. It is pretty impressive. Tom Brady incidentally very 1866 01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:14,560 Speaker 5: talented in that regard as well, But that is in 1867 01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:16,680 Speaker 5: the works. A lot of people thought cool about one 1868 01:23:16,920 --> 01:23:21,120 Speaker 5: forgettable night overall for the scorecards. Nice to see that judge. 1869 01:23:21,120 --> 01:23:22,920 Speaker 5: I think how he booth relieved of his duties and 1870 01:23:23,000 --> 01:23:25,599 Speaker 5: one thing on that really quickly. You know, the UFC 1871 01:23:25,800 --> 01:23:29,000 Speaker 5: maybe can suggest something, but it's entirely up to the commission. 1872 01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:32,000 Speaker 5: So shout out to whoever was in charge understanding that 1873 01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:36,320 Speaker 5: that judge needed to be removed for the rest of 1874 01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:40,120 Speaker 5: the night. Anything else.

I thought, I 1925 01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:54,040 Speaker 13: is he was finally finding his rhythm in Duplessis. I 1926 01:25:54,080 --> 01:25:56,040 Speaker 13: mean he always kind of looks tired, but he looked 1927 01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,600 Speaker 13: a little more tired. The body work was coming in 1928 01:25:58,720 --> 01:26:01,679 Speaker 13: on Izzy, you know, and and all that was paying dividends, 1929 01:26:01,720 --> 01:26:03,479 Speaker 13: and then all of a sudden lands like, oh we're left. 1930 01:26:03,760 --> 01:26:06,280 Speaker 13: The ending was really surprising to me how it happened. 1931 01:26:06,560 --> 01:26:08,000 Speaker 13: But yeah, I mean the guy.

Before that, he looked extremely 2050 01:31:34,920 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 13: flat and guy slept by Jamal Emers.

Shabazian story well documented, comes into the 2067 01:32:32,360 --> 01:32:34,560 Speaker 5: UFC guns blazing four and oh first year on the 2068 01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:37,360 Speaker 5: roster after he knocked out Brad Tavoris at Madison Square Garden, 2069 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:39,880 Speaker 5: then humbled a little bit three straight losses, but he 2070 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:41,920 Speaker 5: is back now in a big way, training under Dewey 2071 01:32:41,960 --> 01:32:44,280 Speaker 5: Cooper there in Vegas. He's won two of three and 2072 01:32:44,400 --> 01:32:47,080 Speaker 5: now this GM three challenge that seemingly every middlewaight to 2073 01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:48,960 Speaker 5: one point in time of the UFC has to pass. 2074 01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:50,559 Speaker 5: So what do you have for us on this one? 2075 01:32:50,600 --> 01:32:53,800 Speaker 5: Can flow? Shabazi in the favorite or Mr Shark the dog? 2076 01:32:54,479 --> 01:32:54,679 Speaker 3: Yeah? 2077 01:32:54,800 --> 01:32:58,800 Speaker 9: Okay, So Shabazian has has come into his own Now 2078 01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:00,880 Speaker 9: he's looking way way better. 2079 01:33:01,080 --> 01:33:05,519 Speaker 2: I think that he's gonna certainly be the better, more 2080 01:33:05,760 --> 01:33:10,400 Speaker 2: dangerous striker. He has had a tendency early on in 2081 01:33:10,520 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 2: his career of losing focus a little bit even when 2082 01:33:13,439 --> 01:33:18,639 Speaker 2: he's doing extremely well. So you know that I think 2083 01:33:18,880 --> 01:33:21,920 Speaker 2: you know his conditioning was a question Mark and early 2084 01:33:22,000 --> 01:33:24,120 Speaker 2: on in his crew, I think, but I do think 2085 01:33:24,280 --> 01:33:28,080 Speaker 2: he's found way more consistency and I do think he'll 2086 01:33:28,160 --> 01:33:31,479 Speaker 2: respect Gerald Miershart enough. 2087 01:33:31,680 --> 01:33:36,479 Speaker 9: Howeverhot he does have the skills to give Edmund a 2088 01:33:36,600 --> 01:33:39,760 Speaker 9: really tough time. Why because he has some solid takedowns 2089 01:33:39,800 --> 01:33:43,800 Speaker 9: and he definitely will be the far superior grappler he 2090 01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:47,439 Speaker 9: can submit Shabasian, There's no question about that. So while 2091 01:33:47,479 --> 01:33:49,640 Speaker 9: I think there's some you know, he could be the 2092 01:33:49,720 --> 01:33:53,280 Speaker 9: kryptonite to Shabazian, I think that Shabazi at this point 2093 01:33:53,400 --> 01:33:56,000 Speaker 9: is seasoned enough to get the win here. 2094 01:33:56,080 --> 01:33:59,519 Speaker 2: So I'm leaning towards Edmund Schabasian uh in this one. 2095 01:34:00,960 --> 01:34:04,080 Speaker 5: Gerald Merchard a very respectable eleven and nine in the 2096 01:34:04,200 --> 01:34:08,080 Speaker 5: UFC Brian, especially given his schedule. Among his nine UFC 2097 01:34:08,280 --> 01:34:12,480 Speaker 5: losses coms out you may have Kevin holland Jack Hermanson 2098 01:34:12,600 --> 01:34:16,240 Speaker 5: having a big show, Tiago Santos, Joe Pifer twenty eight 2099 01:34:16,320 --> 01:34:18,920 Speaker 5: career wins by submission for GM three ten of those 2100 01:34:18,960 --> 01:34:23,200 Speaker 5: in the UFC. That is fourth all time. Kenny Florian incidentally, 2101 01:34:23,320 --> 01:34:27,400 Speaker 5: look alive out there right, still tied for eighth all time, 2102 01:34:28,120 --> 01:34:32,600 Speaker 5: thirteen years after he retired. Kenny Florian, co host of 2103 01:34:32,680 --> 01:34:36,640 Speaker 5: the Annak and Florian podcast, still tied for eighth all 2104 01:34:36,720 --> 01:34:41,160 Speaker 5: time with seven UFC submission wins, and somewhat regretful that 2105 01:34:41,320 --> 01:34:44,519 Speaker 5: he wanted to punch a hole through fucking Joe los 2106 01:34:44,640 --> 01:34:47,439 Speaker 5: On's head so badly that he didn't try to rear 2107 01:34:47,520 --> 01:34:49,360 Speaker 5: naked choke him because that would have given him eight 2108 01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:55,200 Speaker 5: and TEP though I didn't, Yeah, didn't Alvin Robinson. Wasn't 2109 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:58,840 Speaker 5: there something there altas strikes or something? Oh yeah, Brian 2110 01:34:59,600 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 5: Edmund Bossian or Gerald Shark for. 2111 01:35:02,200 --> 01:35:04,640 Speaker 13: You, Yeah, the Alvin Robinson. If I was interested, that 2112 01:35:04,720 --> 01:35:09,120 Speaker 13: was a postlim that was after everything. Yes, yeah, yeah, 2113 01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:13,519 Speaker 13: I remember that very vividly. Listen, Jared Mierscard got plus 2114 01:35:13,640 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 13: money as like Kenny walking by a Porsche. It's like 2115 01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:19,960 Speaker 13: John Johnny walking by some devil Lettuce. 2116 01:35:19,720 --> 01:35:24,519 Speaker 2: Right, you gotta have it. Maybe I love. 2117 01:35:24,760 --> 01:35:27,000 Speaker 13: Jered Morriscart and that's my plus two sixty. That's what 2118 01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:29,400 Speaker 13: you want to call him, though, I mean, what are 2119 01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:33,080 Speaker 13: you calling him? He's like musk rat its hold on, 2120 01:35:34,960 --> 01:35:36,960 Speaker 13: Like I just started, I do have a I do 2121 01:35:37,080 --> 01:35:39,200 Speaker 13: have an infliction with marbles in my mouth. I did 2122 01:35:39,280 --> 01:35:42,000 Speaker 13: say Gerald Mere Shark and then I'm just gonna shorten 2123 01:35:42,040 --> 01:35:45,000 Speaker 13: it the GM three Big Jerald. He give me a 2124 01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:49,360 Speaker 13: big Jerald follow on the old Twitter machine because I said, 2125 01:35:49,800 --> 01:35:52,000 Speaker 13: his last time out when he fought, he had a mustache. 2126 01:35:52,080 --> 01:35:55,280 Speaker 13: I said, Jared Murriscart's mustache just got me pregnant. I 2127 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:57,080 Speaker 13: gotta follow from the big man from that, because that 2128 01:35:57,200 --> 01:36:01,280 Speaker 13: mustache is strong. He's strong in the spot as well, 2129 01:36:01,560 --> 01:36:04,800 Speaker 13: Emma Shabodzi. And yes he's twenty seven, but guys moving 2130 01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:07,040 Speaker 13: to Color or moving to Vegas was a good move 2131 01:36:07,120 --> 01:36:10,000 Speaker 13: for him, but he's still really inconsistent. He hasn't thought 2132 01:36:10,000 --> 01:36:12,360 Speaker 13: a vet like Gerald. Jerald's gonna be okay on the feet. 2133 01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:15,200 Speaker 13: It's the big power that really gets Jerald out of 2134 01:36:15,280 --> 01:36:17,720 Speaker 13: his comfort comfort zone. You know, Joe Pifer is an 2135 01:36:17,760 --> 01:36:21,200 Speaker 13: explosive guy. Shabbazian has power, but I wouldn't necessarily say 2136 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:24,920 Speaker 13: he's like this explosive guy. He puts combinations together well. 2137 01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:27,719 Speaker 13: I think GM three's gonna handle him well. On the feet, 2138 01:36:27,760 --> 01:36:29,960 Speaker 13: I think we're looking at a second or third amount submission. 2139 01:36:30,320 --> 01:36:32,559 Speaker 13: Quite confident in the spot here plus two sixty moved 2140 01:36:32,600 --> 01:36:34,680 Speaker 13: my mind. I've already put my own real money on it. 2141 01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:36,960 Speaker 13: I'm probably gonna put some money on on place our bets. 2142 01:36:37,040 --> 01:36:40,400 Speaker 13: Little teas, give me GM three baby, because he's all 2143 01:36:40,880 --> 01:36:44,639 Speaker 13: fucking man. Nicely done, Brod. 2144 01:36:44,680 --> 01:36:46,840 Speaker 5: We're gonna go right back to you on the welterweights here, 2145 01:36:46,880 --> 01:36:49,320 Speaker 5: and the number just keeps getting bigger next to the 2146 01:36:49,439 --> 01:36:54,799 Speaker 5: name of Ecuadorian prodigy Michael Morales minus eight point fifty 2147 01:36:55,280 --> 01:36:58,479 Speaker 5: taking on Neil Magney plus five seventy five, So minus 2148 01:36:58,560 --> 01:37:00,760 Speaker 5: seven hundred was Morales when I first sent you guys 2149 01:37:00,800 --> 01:37:02,640 Speaker 5: to the odds. He's still just twenty five years of 2150 01:37:02,680 --> 01:37:04,960 Speaker 5: age four to oh in the UFC after win over 2151 01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:08,720 Speaker 5: Jake Matthews last November. Has not competed yet in twenty 2152 01:37:08,960 --> 01:37:12,320 Speaker 5: twenty four, but he has spent some time in Chicago 2153 01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:19,360 Speaker 5: with the new UFC champion, Mike Valley as well. Alongside 2154 01:37:19,400 --> 01:37:23,639 Speaker 5: in Chicago. Now Morales a massive favorite, broud of taking 2155 01:37:23,680 --> 01:37:25,920 Speaker 5: Neil Magne's number twelve. Ranking your thoughts on this one. 2156 01:37:26,400 --> 01:37:28,519 Speaker 13: No, Magnie can't get no respect. He goes out there 2157 01:37:28,560 --> 01:37:31,599 Speaker 13: and beats Mike Mallanas a big underdog. No, we'll give 2158 01:37:31,640 --> 01:37:33,760 Speaker 13: him respect that we're going to kick the tires. 2159 01:37:33,560 --> 01:37:34,280 Speaker 5: On Neil Magnie. 2160 01:37:34,360 --> 01:37:35,960 Speaker 13: I am not I am not gonna get the tires on. 2161 01:37:36,000 --> 01:37:38,160 Speaker 13: Neil macgnie listen. Michael Morales is a guy who I 2162 01:37:38,200 --> 01:37:41,560 Speaker 13: think could be put up with the guys like Shavcotte 2163 01:37:41,640 --> 01:37:43,720 Speaker 13: and Gary in three named Jack. I think he can 2164 01:37:43,840 --> 01:37:46,160 Speaker 13: be put up there. He's just hasn't done it yet. 2165 01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:48,439 Speaker 13: He has the skills to be with those guys, but 2166 01:37:48,680 --> 01:37:51,640 Speaker 13: he just doesn't. He hasn't fought enough. You know, his 2167 01:37:51,720 --> 01:37:55,000 Speaker 13: personality hasn't shined through yet, so he's on the back burner. 2168 01:37:55,080 --> 01:37:57,439 Speaker 13: But I think he's that skilled where he can compete 2169 01:37:57,439 --> 01:37:58,800 Speaker 13: with those guys that's twenty five years old. 2170 01:37:58,880 --> 01:38:02,040 Speaker 5: This guy is you know, he's a freak. I mean, 2171 01:38:02,120 --> 01:38:02,519 Speaker 5: it's back. 2172 01:38:02,560 --> 01:38:04,639 Speaker 13: I've said it before. It's like a bag of ropes. 2173 01:38:04,760 --> 01:38:08,200 Speaker 13: This guy's back is enormous and you know, and he's 2174 01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:10,360 Speaker 13: good everywhere, and he's getting better. Neil Magnu is a 2175 01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:12,439 Speaker 13: tricky guy because Neil magn is a long guy. Yeah, 2176 01:38:12,520 --> 01:38:14,240 Speaker 13: he can keep him on the outside of this, yeah, 2177 01:38:14,240 --> 01:38:15,920 Speaker 13: but he likes to fight on the inside. He likes 2178 01:38:15,920 --> 01:38:18,240 Speaker 13: to clinch with you, fuck you up against the cage. 2179 01:38:18,280 --> 01:38:18,400 Speaker 6: You know. 2180 01:38:18,479 --> 01:38:20,439 Speaker 13: That's kind of weird for guys so long as Neil, 2181 01:38:20,479 --> 01:38:22,799 Speaker 13: but he's been doing it forever. He doesn't get tired. 2182 01:38:23,200 --> 01:38:26,639 Speaker 13: It's a strong, sturdy test for anyone at one seventy. 2183 01:38:27,439 --> 01:38:30,000 Speaker 13: If you're Morales, I would love a finish here. You're 2184 01:38:30,040 --> 01:38:31,880 Speaker 13: this big of a favorite going out there. Not many 2185 01:38:31,920 --> 01:38:34,920 Speaker 13: people finished. Neil MAGGI go out there and prioritize a finish. 2186 01:38:35,600 --> 01:38:37,360 Speaker 13: I like Morales in the spot here. I think he's 2187 01:38:37,400 --> 01:38:40,639 Speaker 13: gonna win. The number is enormous. Not sure how you're 2188 01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:42,400 Speaker 13: gonna play this. I think the only way you can 2189 01:38:42,520 --> 01:38:44,280 Speaker 13: play this is if you're on the Neil Magne side. 2190 01:38:44,520 --> 01:38:48,519 Speaker 13: Maybe Morales by finish, but Vegas is onto that. Now 2191 01:38:48,640 --> 01:38:51,519 Speaker 13: you know Vegas or Vegas has been set finished props 2192 01:38:51,520 --> 01:38:54,200 Speaker 13: for high, the high the talent guys pretty out of whax. 2193 01:38:54,320 --> 01:38:56,439 Speaker 13: So yeah, I don't know. I'm gonna take Morales. 2194 01:38:56,520 --> 01:39:00,280 Speaker 5: So Kenny Neil Magne's got thirty two UFC fights in idea, 2195 01:39:00,320 --> 01:39:01,519 Speaker 5: how many of those he has won? 2196 01:39:02,760 --> 01:39:02,800 Speaker 6: No? 2197 01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:07,479 Speaker 5: Twenty two? Yeah, twenty two and ten. He just turned 2198 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:10,799 Speaker 5: thirty seven, still winning fights at a high level. Obviously 2199 01:39:10,880 --> 01:39:13,160 Speaker 5: the big upset of Mike Malatti's won two of three, 2200 01:39:13,360 --> 01:39:15,880 Speaker 5: three of five. Thought you could have bonused him for 2201 01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:18,479 Speaker 5: the Mike Mallott win at UFC two ninety seven last 2202 01:39:18,520 --> 01:39:22,000 Speaker 5: three losses Kenny for Neil Magni, Ian Michadogary, Gilbertorino, Burns, 2203 01:39:22,040 --> 01:39:25,360 Speaker 5: Shof Catt rockmanob The stiff test keep on coming and 2204 01:39:26,280 --> 01:39:28,799 Speaker 5: Magni forces a lot of betters to rip up tickets. 2205 01:39:28,840 --> 01:39:31,719 Speaker 5: Perhaps more of that this weekend. What are your thoughts 2206 01:39:31,760 --> 01:39:32,759 Speaker 5: on this one, big spread? 2207 01:39:33,360 --> 01:39:38,360 Speaker 9: It's interesting right, Well, Morales is he's young, he's extremely talented, 2208 01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:41,599 Speaker 9: and to make matters worse, every time I see him fight, 2209 01:39:42,280 --> 01:39:46,320 Speaker 9: he's better. Yeah, And I think that this is a 2210 01:39:46,400 --> 01:39:48,920 Speaker 9: guy to watch in this division, There's no question about it. 2211 01:39:49,280 --> 01:39:52,200 Speaker 9: Magni though, he's as tough as old leather man, and 2212 01:39:53,200 --> 01:39:56,559 Speaker 9: you know, I think he's got to be careful early 2213 01:39:56,640 --> 01:39:59,080 Speaker 9: on in this fight because he just has a tendency 2214 01:39:59,120 --> 01:40:00,920 Speaker 9: of being a little bit of a slow starter. Once 2215 01:40:01,000 --> 01:40:03,040 Speaker 9: Magne gets into his rhythm though, and if you allow 2216 01:40:03,120 --> 01:40:06,759 Speaker 9: him into a fight, he can spoil your party for sure. 2217 01:40:07,439 --> 01:40:10,280 Speaker 9: And Brian is onto it, I mean, especially from the clinch. 2218 01:40:10,360 --> 01:40:13,200 Speaker 9: He can take you down, rough you up, slow things 2219 01:40:13,280 --> 01:40:14,960 Speaker 9: down for you. That's what he's got to do here 2220 01:40:14,960 --> 01:40:18,240 Speaker 9: against Morales. I just don't think he can overcome the 2221 01:40:18,320 --> 01:40:19,799 Speaker 9: physicality of Morales. 2222 01:40:19,920 --> 01:40:20,040 Speaker 3: Though. 2223 01:40:20,120 --> 01:40:24,679 Speaker 2: Morales is a crazy athlete. Like the way that he moves. 2224 01:40:24,760 --> 01:40:28,080 Speaker 9: He does everything really really well, and I don't see 2225 01:40:28,920 --> 01:40:31,040 Speaker 9: his train being stopped at this stage of the game. 2226 01:40:31,120 --> 01:40:34,360 Speaker 5: I like morales here ropes in his fucking back. 2227 01:40:34,600 --> 01:40:35,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, I like that. 2228 01:40:35,840 --> 01:40:38,640 Speaker 5: I like that comin event essentially a pick him right 2229 01:40:38,680 --> 01:40:41,760 Speaker 5: now on DraftKings Sportsbook. In the straweight division, Tabitha Baby Shark, 2230 01:40:41,800 --> 01:40:45,000 Speaker 5: Riachi minus one twelve, Angela overkill Hill minus one O 2231 01:40:45,120 --> 01:40:48,000 Speaker 5: eight bri twelve and thirteen in the UFC for Ange, 2232 01:40:48,080 --> 01:40:49,920 Speaker 5: but she has one four of five and I think 2233 01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:53,320 Speaker 5: that UFC record is a little bit disingenuous in terms 2234 01:40:53,360 --> 01:40:56,599 Speaker 5: of how she has performed. On the other side, Riccie 2235 01:40:57,400 --> 01:40:59,280 Speaker 5: just sort of getting going in the UFC nice five 2236 01:40:59,320 --> 01:41:00,760 Speaker 5: and two star for her what he had for us 2237 01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:01,679 Speaker 5: on the comin of MVP. 2238 01:41:02,160 --> 01:41:04,320 Speaker 13: Yeah, Angela motherfucking Hill is what I call her. And 2239 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,800 Speaker 13: you asked me last week of the week prior to 2240 01:41:06,880 --> 01:41:09,320 Speaker 13: that who my favorite fighter was. I should have said 2241 01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:12,120 Speaker 13: Angela Hill, because she truly is. I mean, she's so 2242 01:41:12,560 --> 01:41:15,600 Speaker 13: great on MI her fan Hooker, Yeah, Dan Hooker, I 2243 01:41:15,680 --> 01:41:18,040 Speaker 13: mean he's unbelievable as well, but she's fantastic out of 2244 01:41:18,040 --> 01:41:20,439 Speaker 13: the cage as well. She's funny, she's all this stuff, 2245 01:41:20,439 --> 01:41:23,280 Speaker 13: and then she's in the cage and she's a fucking badass. 2246 01:41:23,280 --> 01:41:24,360 Speaker 5: And she's getting better. 2247 01:41:24,439 --> 01:41:25,600 Speaker 2: I know she's a little We. 2248 01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:27,880 Speaker 13: Don't talk about women's ages around here, we just don't 2249 01:41:27,920 --> 01:41:28,160 Speaker 13: do it. 2250 01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:28,920 Speaker 5: How old is she? 2251 01:41:29,400 --> 01:41:30,599 Speaker 2: I late thirties. 2252 01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 5: I'm gonna look it up. 2253 01:41:31,960 --> 01:41:34,479 Speaker 13: Yeah, I think she might be my age, maybe a 2254 01:41:34,520 --> 01:41:37,200 Speaker 13: little older than me. Either way doesn't matter because it's 2255 01:41:37,240 --> 01:41:39,800 Speaker 13: not impacting her performances. She's coming off a submission win, 2256 01:41:40,120 --> 01:41:42,400 Speaker 13: which has really knocked her plagued. During the past, she 2257 01:41:42,560 --> 01:41:44,800 Speaker 13: has looked good off her back when she gets taken down. 2258 01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:48,120 Speaker 13: She has been able to stop takedowns. Tabatha Ricci fightd 2259 01:41:48,120 --> 01:41:51,200 Speaker 13: a lot like Tsha Trres slash Tisa Pennington. Excuse me, 2260 01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:53,280 Speaker 13: that's you. She fought her last time outline. I thought 2261 01:41:53,320 --> 01:41:56,080 Speaker 13: she lost the fight. The judges gave it to her. 2262 01:41:56,120 --> 01:41:58,880 Speaker 5: But she's very similar to that. Puts combinations together, kind 2263 01:41:58,880 --> 01:42:01,240 Speaker 5: of borushes you in, looks for a takedown, but doesn't 2264 01:42:01,280 --> 01:42:03,000 Speaker 5: have much to offer. 2265 01:42:02,760 --> 01:42:05,320 Speaker 13: When it comes to submissions. I think Angela Hill is 2266 01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:06,880 Speaker 13: going to piece her up on the feet. I think 2267 01:42:06,880 --> 01:42:09,160 Speaker 13: Angela Hill is gonna be okay on the ground as 2268 01:42:09,200 --> 01:42:12,120 Speaker 13: long as we get Angela Hill, who is urgent to 2269 01:42:12,200 --> 01:42:14,639 Speaker 13: get up and throwing up a couple of legs, slowing 2270 01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:17,040 Speaker 13: up some submissions to keep reaching on her toes. And 2271 01:42:17,760 --> 01:42:20,160 Speaker 13: Angela Hill key's working her feet. She doesn't get tired. 2272 01:42:20,439 --> 01:42:23,040 Speaker 13: Her elbows in the clinch, her knees are nasty. I 2273 01:42:23,240 --> 01:42:24,439 Speaker 13: like Angela motherfucker Hill in. 2274 01:42:24,479 --> 01:42:26,479 Speaker 5: This spot as well. I love to pick him number. 2275 01:42:27,479 --> 01:42:29,280 Speaker 13: I'm either gonna make a lot of money or I'm 2276 01:42:29,280 --> 01:42:31,320 Speaker 13: gonna be very upset because my favorite fighter lost. 2277 01:42:31,800 --> 01:42:33,760 Speaker 5: So on a UFC tail of the tape. If a 2278 01:42:33,840 --> 01:42:36,200 Speaker 5: fighter is exactly forty years of age, you might hear 2279 01:42:36,280 --> 01:42:38,639 Speaker 5: me say he's a man, he's forty. It's a nod 2280 01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:41,680 Speaker 5: to Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy, who once got 2281 01:42:41,720 --> 01:42:44,519 Speaker 5: the defense of his players and said, you know, come 2282 01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:46,519 Speaker 5: at me, I'm a man. I'm forty. Now, I would 2283 01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:48,799 Speaker 5: never say she's a woman, she's forty. 2284 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:49,320 Speaker 6: You know. 2285 01:42:49,520 --> 01:42:51,719 Speaker 5: It might be like a custody battle type thing. But Kenny, 2286 01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:53,640 Speaker 5: how old do you think Angela Hill is? 2287 01:42:54,920 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 6: I'm not sure. 2288 01:42:56,520 --> 01:42:58,320 Speaker 5: Seven forty in January. 2289 01:42:58,360 --> 01:42:59,760 Speaker 2: Oh look at her. Yeah, she looks great. 2290 01:43:00,080 --> 01:43:03,479 Speaker 5: But I can understand why BPC's some value there minus one. Oh, eight, 2291 01:43:03,800 --> 01:43:07,120 Speaker 5: she's still getting better appetite for mixed martial arts. Knowledge 2292 01:43:07,160 --> 01:43:09,680 Speaker 5: and hard work and improvement is there. What do you 2293 01:43:09,760 --> 01:43:14,000 Speaker 5: make of this? Pretty intriguing at least on paper comin event, Okay, 2294 01:43:14,320 --> 01:43:15,400 Speaker 5: this is this is. 2295 01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:18,120 Speaker 9: The hardest fight for me to pick, and it's also 2296 01:43:18,160 --> 01:43:21,240 Speaker 9: the most intriguing for me from a value perspective of 2297 01:43:21,400 --> 01:43:24,120 Speaker 9: where I can make the most amount of money. So 2298 01:43:24,760 --> 01:43:29,000 Speaker 9: if I can, I would like to hold my pick 2299 01:43:29,280 --> 01:43:32,320 Speaker 9: to the yes, because I am to bet big on 2300 01:43:32,439 --> 01:43:32,880 Speaker 9: that fight. 2301 01:43:33,400 --> 01:43:34,360 Speaker 5: Outstanding. 2302 01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:38,240 Speaker 9: Yeah, So, so Ricci I think has made big improvements. 2303 01:43:38,320 --> 01:43:41,679 Speaker 9: And it was it was a close one against Tsha Pennington, 2304 01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:45,880 Speaker 9: it definitely was. But I thought that she showed good 2305 01:43:46,000 --> 01:43:49,559 Speaker 9: resilience in that fight. I thought she showed improved striking 2306 01:43:49,680 --> 01:43:52,479 Speaker 9: in that fight. I think she has an interesting background 2307 01:43:52,640 --> 01:43:54,320 Speaker 9: just based on the fact that she does come from 2308 01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:56,800 Speaker 9: that judo background, also good in Brazilian jujitsu as well. 2309 01:43:57,200 --> 01:44:00,879 Speaker 9: Trains with a good team, seems to come in well prepared. 2310 01:44:01,680 --> 01:44:04,760 Speaker 9: So she's showing improvements and she's definitely having a lot 2311 01:44:04,800 --> 01:44:09,080 Speaker 9: of consistency in the UFC. Now, Angela Hill is someone 2312 01:44:09,240 --> 01:44:12,000 Speaker 9: that really can spoil the party as well. 2313 01:44:12,280 --> 01:44:15,600 Speaker 2: She is very good everywhere. She has a style that 2314 01:44:15,800 --> 01:44:19,840 Speaker 2: is very unusual and tough to defeat. The takedown game 2315 01:44:19,920 --> 01:44:24,320 Speaker 2: that she's shown in in her in her improvement is significant, 2316 01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:27,640 Speaker 2: you know, her submission improvement is significant. Trains with a 2317 01:44:27,680 --> 01:44:30,400 Speaker 2: great team herself down in southern California as well a 2318 01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:32,719 Speaker 2: little bit a little bit more south in San Diego. 2319 01:44:32,880 --> 01:44:37,439 Speaker 2: But she and what's most interesting and what's most confusing is. 2320 01:44:37,479 --> 01:44:42,360 Speaker 9: The fact that Ricchie tends to start quickly and slows 2321 01:44:42,439 --> 01:44:44,040 Speaker 9: down at the end of the fight a little bit. 2322 01:44:44,479 --> 01:44:48,800 Speaker 9: Angela slow to start, finished as stronger as the fight goes. 2323 01:44:48,880 --> 01:44:51,519 Speaker 9: So I have gone back and forth in this one, 2324 01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:54,479 Speaker 9: but I am determined to try to come back and 2325 01:44:54,600 --> 01:44:55,120 Speaker 9: I kind. 2326 01:44:55,000 --> 01:44:58,160 Speaker 2: Of just have to, like, you know, let the balls 2327 01:44:58,240 --> 01:44:58,840 Speaker 2: hang a little bit. 2328 01:44:59,000 --> 01:44:59,600 Speaker 5: I love it. 2329 01:45:00,160 --> 01:45:02,800 Speaker 2: So a little confused, We'll see what happens. But here 2330 01:45:02,880 --> 01:45:04,280 Speaker 2: we go. We can move on to the next one. 2331 01:45:04,400 --> 01:45:07,960 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's interesting because, yeah, you're taking a shot obviously 2332 01:45:08,040 --> 01:45:08,880 Speaker 5: because of the price. 2333 01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:09,200 Speaker 2: You know. 2334 01:45:09,560 --> 01:45:12,240 Speaker 5: Yes, if I'm in your position, I might be going, like, 2335 01:45:12,600 --> 01:45:15,559 Speaker 5: you know, a thousand bucks on like Kyo or something. 2336 01:45:15,640 --> 01:45:17,719 Speaker 5: But anyway, that does bring us to the main event. 2337 01:45:17,880 --> 01:45:22,320 Speaker 5: Or you could go Candoneer, Kyo, Bohoalio Rising, mid away 2338 01:45:22,360 --> 01:45:25,160 Speaker 5: contender minus two eighteen The Killer Gorilla Jared Candidier plus 2339 01:45:25,240 --> 01:45:29,040 Speaker 5: one eighty so the judo player Bojolio sixteen and one, 2340 01:45:29,880 --> 01:45:32,240 Speaker 5: six and zero in the UFC bri He's won thirteen 2341 01:45:32,320 --> 01:45:35,120 Speaker 5: in a row, last win by knockout over Paul Barre 2342 01:45:35,240 --> 01:45:38,240 Speaker 5: ju Kaig UFC three to zero one in May Fighting Nerds, 2343 01:45:38,520 --> 01:45:43,040 Speaker 5: Kenny Is at sal Luis Maranyo. I believe so yes, 2344 01:45:43,479 --> 01:45:45,479 Speaker 5: the guy can do it all though Brian Canny right 2345 01:45:45,560 --> 01:45:47,719 Speaker 5: Kyle Bohalio and now getting a shot at the credentialed 2346 01:45:47,760 --> 01:45:51,240 Speaker 5: former world title challenger, the Killer Gorilla Jared Cannonier in 2347 01:45:51,360 --> 01:45:54,320 Speaker 5: the main event twenty five foot octagon there at the APEXVP. 2348 01:45:54,400 --> 01:45:54,880 Speaker 5: Who do you like? 2349 01:45:55,360 --> 01:45:55,519 Speaker 10: Man? 2350 01:45:55,640 --> 01:45:57,639 Speaker 13: This is a tough one to pick, you know, because 2351 01:45:58,880 --> 01:46:01,760 Speaker 13: Ken Near is an easy matchup for a lot of people. 2352 01:46:01,840 --> 01:46:03,840 Speaker 13: But I feel like he might be coming back a 2353 01:46:03,920 --> 01:46:06,719 Speaker 13: little too soon. I mean, he kind of got putting 2354 01:46:06,760 --> 01:46:09,519 Speaker 13: potholes and you know, was stepping with the lights off 2355 01:46:09,600 --> 01:46:12,680 Speaker 13: against you know, his last time out.

He got rocked in that fight, and that 2358 01:46:16,680 --> 01:46:18,840 Speaker 13: was in June. And he's an older guy, and I 2359 01:46:18,880 --> 01:46:21,040 Speaker 13: think maybe he's a angry about that he's coming back. 2360 01:46:21,320 --> 01:46:23,080 Speaker 13: He's fit as a fiddle, right, I mean, the guy 2361 01:46:23,240 --> 01:46:29,559 Speaker 13: is in shape, jacked to the tits.

I'm really curious to 2389 01:47:42,200 --> 01:47:44,640 Speaker 13: see how Ky's gonna approaches. Is he gonna take the 2390 01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:46,759 Speaker 13: fight to the ground, because if he does, he dominates, 2391 01:47:46,800 --> 01:47:48,200 Speaker 13: I think, Or is he gonna play it out on 2392 01:47:48,240 --> 01:47:48,559 Speaker 13: the feet. 2393 01:47:48,760 --> 01:47:51,040 Speaker 5: He's beat some really good guys and you walk through 2394 01:47:51,120 --> 01:47:54,360 Speaker 5: Paul Kreeg.

So 2409 01:48:31,360 --> 01:48:34,719 Speaker 5: Jared Cannoneer's UFC winning percentage, right, you'd imagine it's higher, 2410 01:48:34,800 --> 01:48:37,640 Speaker 5: but any idea, guys, right, I mean, he's fought for 2411 01:48:37,680 --> 01:48:39,639 Speaker 5: the belt, he's fought all the best middleweights in the world. 2412 01:48:39,720 --> 01:48:41,960 Speaker 5: But he's fifty eight percent, you know, ten and seven 2413 01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:45,280 Speaker 5: in the UFC. Not that much better than Gerald Mershard, Right, 2414 01:48:45,360 --> 01:48:47,960 Speaker 5: Maybe not a great comp but it just shows you, 2415 01:48:48,240 --> 01:48:50,120 Speaker 5: you know, how hard it is to win a singular 2416 01:48:50,200 --> 01:48:52,720 Speaker 5: fight in the UFC. You mentioned the Amavov fight two 2417 01:48:52,720 --> 01:48:56,760 Speaker 5: months ago in Louisville. I don't know if it's too 2418 01:48:56,880 --> 01:48:58,960 Speaker 5: soon here, but there's a plus one eighty number next 2419 01:48:59,000 --> 01:49:01,120 Speaker 5: to Jared Cannoneer's name, Kenny, I don't know if that 2420 01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:03,240 Speaker 5: intrigues you, or if you like the Brazilian but will 2421 01:49:03,280 --> 01:49:04,320 Speaker 5: need a main event selection. 2422 01:49:05,280 --> 01:49:05,960 Speaker 2: You can get one. 2423 01:49:07,320 --> 01:49:10,679 Speaker 9: This is a very interesting fight. I think that First 2424 01:49:10,680 --> 01:49:12,880 Speaker 9: of all, I'm a fan of Kyle Bohelio. I think 2425 01:49:12,960 --> 01:49:16,120 Speaker 9: that he is a very very good fighter. This might 2426 01:49:16,280 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 9: be a little bit too early, especially given the fact 2427 01:49:19,479 --> 01:49:21,719 Speaker 9: that it's the main event. If it was a three rounder, 2428 01:49:21,920 --> 01:49:25,960 Speaker 9: I would probably be leaning towards Boholio now because it's 2429 01:49:25,960 --> 01:49:29,360 Speaker 9: a five rounder, we can't forget. And again it was 2430 01:49:29,400 --> 01:49:32,320 Speaker 9: a close one. Cannoneer beat Strickland in a five rounder. 2431 01:49:32,360 --> 01:49:35,040 Speaker 9: He's beaten a lot of guys in five rounders. You 2432 01:49:35,240 --> 01:49:39,960 Speaker 9: cannot discount the experience of someone like Cannoneer. I would 2433 01:49:40,040 --> 01:49:43,600 Speaker 9: also say that cannon Ear is not Paul Craig. No 2434 01:49:43,760 --> 01:49:46,920 Speaker 9: disrespect to Craig, but you know he doesn't have that 2435 01:49:47,200 --> 01:49:50,640 Speaker 9: He's got a still has a good chin. And I 2436 01:49:50,760 --> 01:49:53,600 Speaker 9: also think that Boholio is not in mov Off. I 2437 01:49:53,720 --> 01:49:58,080 Speaker 9: Mavov is a very very good fighter that needs to 2438 01:49:58,160 --> 01:50:01,160 Speaker 9: be way more respected. At one five his last performance 2439 01:50:01,160 --> 01:50:04,120 Speaker 9: since Cannoneer impressed the hell out of me. To me, 2440 01:50:04,280 --> 01:50:06,640 Speaker 9: it shows that he knows what kind of fighter he 2441 01:50:06,840 --> 01:50:09,840 Speaker 9: is now, and I think he's gonna give a lot 2442 01:50:09,880 --> 01:50:12,960 Speaker 9: of people trouble that I can guarantee. 2443 01:50:14,080 --> 01:50:17,080 Speaker 2: So I think it's kind of juicy. It's juicy for 2444 01:50:17,120 --> 01:50:18,640 Speaker 2: a couple of different reasons. First of all, I need 2445 01:50:18,720 --> 01:50:22,360 Speaker 2: some goddamn points here against against Brian Petrie. So I 2446 01:50:22,600 --> 01:50:26,560 Speaker 2: like Cannony here, cannonir here. I think his experience, I 2447 01:50:26,680 --> 01:50:29,599 Speaker 2: think could really post some problems for Bowihilio. I think 2448 01:50:29,680 --> 01:50:32,519 Speaker 2: it will be close either way, whether Bohalio wins or not. 2449 01:50:33,000 --> 01:50:36,439 Speaker 9: I if Boholio finishes him, it would probably be on 2450 01:50:36,520 --> 01:50:40,160 Speaker 9: the ground, but who knows. I just I'd like to 2451 01:50:40,200 --> 01:50:43,320 Speaker 9: see a little bit more out of Boholio, and I 2452 01:50:43,479 --> 01:50:48,080 Speaker 9: just don't think he's faced the best competition for me 2453 01:50:48,240 --> 01:50:51,000 Speaker 9: to go in there with such confidence given the odds. 2454 01:50:51,080 --> 01:50:53,920 Speaker 9: So give me, give me cannon heir here. 2455 01:50:54,200 --> 01:50:56,679 Speaker 5: All right, Ken Flow Van Halen T shirt likes Jared 2456 01:50:56,720 --> 01:50:58,840 Speaker 5: Cannonier plus one eighty in the main event coming up 2457 01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:02,439 Speaker 5: this Saturday on ESPN.
