I mean, it takes me back 33 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,919 Speaker 7: to the nineteen nineties and Metros Boston, Ken Flow driving around, 34 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 7: smoke coming out the windows. Just kidding, but everything else 35 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 7: is true, man, that dude man DMX. You know, one 36 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 7: of the things that's hard, I think is as you 37 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 7: get older, you know, all the people around you, you know, 38 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 7: start to pass away. And this one hit pretty heavy. 39 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 7: So a little tribute to DMX off the top. How 40 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 7: are you this morning, kid? 41 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 8: I'm doing good man, dog dude, it's my man. 42 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 9: And then all right, right, how. 43 00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 7: About what I'm saying. 44 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 8: I mean, also, it's just I was a huge DMX fan. 45 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 10: But also you. 46 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 8: Know, so many MMA fighters have come out to his 47 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 8: music and it's kind of synonymous. At this point, he 48 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 8: was part of a wasn't he part of like a 49 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 8: hip hop MMA show at one point on BT he 50 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 8: may have been, but I know he was a fan 51 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,519 Speaker 8: and loved the fight game and what was one of 52 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 8: the realist rappers ever. There was a story about DMX 53 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,840 Speaker 8: where for his I believe for his like interview in 54 00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:55,440 Speaker 8: front of Russell Simmons, right, he had his jaw broken 55 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 8: and he had his jaw wired shut, right and he 56 00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 8: did a freestyle for Russell Simmons with his jaw wired 57 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 8: ship of course he did like that's just that's I 58 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,240 Speaker 8: remember hearing that story way back in the day. I 59 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 8: believe that was the story, and I remember it had 60 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,560 Speaker 8: an impact on me. I'm like, this dude wanted to 61 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 8: chase his dreams. He was a real dude. He wrapped 62 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:21,200 Speaker 8: about real shit and uh he was gangster to the end, man. 63 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 7: No doubt about it. And you know who sounds good 64 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 7: after DMX? Almost no one? Right, we certainly aren't sound 65 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,760 Speaker 7: good following DMX. If I'm not mistaken. He voiced the 66 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 7: pay per view open for UFC one ninety six. So 67 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 7: maybe you want to go on UFC Fight Pass and 68 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,520 Speaker 7: see if I'm accurate about that. But it's good to 69 00:03:37,520 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 7: have you with us? It is Monday, April twelfth, twenty 70 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 7: twenty one, episode two ninety six of the Florian and 71 00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:45,840 Speaker 7: Nannik Podcast. What do you think about that? For a 72 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:48,119 Speaker 7: show named Kenny the Florian an Antik podcast. 73 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 10: We've been saying Anak and Floria for so long. 74 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 8: It doesn't. It doesn't. It's like, you know, you don't 75 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,400 Speaker 8: say pepper and salt. You say salt and pepper for whatever. 76 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,240 Speaker 7: You know what I mean, it's just for whatever reason. 77 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 7: So dating to MMA Live in two thousand and eight, 78 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 7: that was the first time I introduced us together, you know, 79 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 7: and obviously you were sitting to my left and you know, 80 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 7: John Anna, Kenny Floria, and Franklin McNeil there on the 81 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,720 Speaker 7: fucking end, right. Uh, But it was always you know, 82 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 7: John Anakin, Kenny Florian. So we do the first store 83 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,520 Speaker 7: third episode of this podcast, and we had Hall of 84 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 7: Fame boxing writer Kevin Ioli on the show and said, oh, Kevin, 85 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 7: great to be with you know, great to have you 86 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,640 Speaker 7: with us, And he says, uh, John, I don't know 87 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 7: how you got top billing on this podcast exactly. You know, 88 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,080 Speaker 7: given the fact that Kenny has has three times fought 89 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 7: for a UFC Championship, and I don't know exactly what 90 00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:36,000 Speaker 7: you are. You run the point, that's all right, I said, 91 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,240 Speaker 7: I sort of started the show, so I guess I 92 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 7: got that distinction. But I don't know if we're going 93 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:42,919 Speaker 7: to change it to Floria and Nanik here. I had 94 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,840 Speaker 7: two hundred and ninety six episodes in but it's good 95 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 7: to have you with us. We have a lot to 96 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:48,600 Speaker 7: get to today. Of course, we're going to spend the 97 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 7: bulk of the next twenty five minutes recapping UFC Fight 98 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 7: Night victory versus Holland. I don't know where Ray Longo is. 99 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 7: He might be in South Carolina. Yeah, I'll be probably 100 00:04:57,839 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 7: sleeping at this problems thirty five am Eastern. Ray is 101 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,080 Speaker 7: scheduled to join us in about thirty minutes, and it 102 00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 7: was a big week for Team Anak and Ian Parker, 103 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 7: so we'll see if ken Flow has anything to say 104 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 7: about that in the main event challenge. As we spin 105 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 7: things forward to UFC Fight Night, Whitaker versus Gastolon. But 106 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 7: let us not shortchange the athlete too. All produced over 107 00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 7: the weekend. I would like to start with Mackenzie durn 108 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 7: who's actually my new favorite fighter, but let us start 109 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 7: with Marvin Vittori fifty to forty four times three unanimous 110 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 7: decision over Kevin Holland and Kenny. A lot of people 111 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 7: felt as though Marvin was going to be able to 112 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 7: do what he wanted with Kevin Holland on the ground 113 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 7: and largely his physicality, his strength was too much. And 114 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 7: this is the path of least resistance, in the path 115 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 7: that a lot of people are going to take against 116 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,679 Speaker 7: a special long range weapon type striker and Kevin Holland. 117 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:47,919 Speaker 7: What were your thoughts on the main event. 118 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 8: Listen, I thought Marv Vittori did take that path of 119 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 8: least resistance, that was, you know, where he was going 120 00:05:55,480 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 8: to encounter, you know, the least dangerous you know, Kevin Holland. 121 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 8: And I think that that was proven correct. He was 122 00:06:05,480 --> 00:06:08,480 Speaker 8: exposing the lack of wrestling of Kevin Holland. And I think, 123 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,160 Speaker 8: you know, he really did benefit from watching him in 124 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,560 Speaker 8: the Derek ruds And fight. Kevin Holland is billed as 125 00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 8: this Brazilian jujitsu black belt, and you know, against your 126 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 8: typical fighter, Kevin Holland might do well on the ground, 127 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 8: but Marvin Victory his size, his awareness, his grounded pound, 128 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 8: his positioning was just way too much for Kevin Holland. 129 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 8: I think Victory physically is going to be a problem 130 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,360 Speaker 8: for a lot of guys in that division. I do 131 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 8: think that for Victory, I was looking for more composure 132 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 8: or a much improved striking game. And again not that 133 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 8: he was trying to do that against Kevin Holland, but 134 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 8: there were times where his head was a little bit upright. 135 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,360 Speaker 10: Where I thought it was a little bit scary for him. 136 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,960 Speaker 8: I think that's a testament to both Kevin Holland's reach 137 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 8: and to Kevin Holland striking a bit. But for Vittori, 138 00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 8: I thought it was a solid performance. He did exactly 139 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 8: what he needed to do. He came in tremendous shape 140 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 8: and it was it was largely a dominant performance. 141 00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 7: Would there be any pardon for Marvin Vittori insofar as 142 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,920 Speaker 7: he was preparing for a south pawd Darren Till for 143 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 7: eight weeks and then got the quick turn right like 144 00:07:16,280 --> 00:07:19,679 Speaker 7: I think you assessed him perfectly right, and certainly watching 145 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 7: half al Cordero in the corner, you know when there 146 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 7: were a few moments of trepidation on the feed and 147 00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 7: he got that big takedown, you saw the corner sort 148 00:07:26,720 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 7: of exhale, But I do believe that, you know, he 149 00:07:29,720 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 7: was preparing for a decidedly different challenge, and I just 150 00:07:31,960 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 7: think there was a lot of pressure on him to 151 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,360 Speaker 7: just win. And I don't know. I'm not trying to 152 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 7: sit here and pardon the guy, but I do think 153 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 7: it was a hard late pivot for him as all. 154 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 7: I think. 155 00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:40,720 Speaker 8: I think that's always difficult. 156 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 10: John. 157 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 8: I think that's a good point. However, when I look 158 00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 8: at some of the fundamental things that's going on with Vittori, 159 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:50,320 Speaker 8: there are some issues there and after the fight, you know, 160 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 8: I hate coming up with these hypotheticals, right because the 161 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 8: Darren Hill fight didn't happen. However, he would have really 162 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 8: struggled in that fight against Dared Hill. Yeah, for a 163 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 8: couple reasons. Darren Till isn't easy to take down necessarily. 164 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 8: I also think that Darren Hill, Darren Hill is a 165 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 8: much more dangerous striker as far as power. If he 166 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 8: lands and you get an opportunity like maybe Kevin Holland 167 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 8: did a couple times in that fight, I think Darren 168 00:08:15,880 --> 00:08:17,600 Speaker 8: Hill might have been able to finish the job there. 169 00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 10: Vittori has a great chan and he's tough. 170 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:21,640 Speaker 8: However, I think it would have been a tough matchup 171 00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,480 Speaker 8: for him. So I was a little disappointed in that 172 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 8: regard for Vittori because I was expecting a little bit more. 173 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 8: But you're right, it's always difficult anytime you need you know, 174 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 8: it's a quick turnaround, it gets a completely different opponent. 175 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 7: And for Marvin Vittori, right this doesn't have people necessarily 176 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,760 Speaker 7: all Jones in for the Adasania rematch right now, like 177 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 7: I don't know that he maximized this showcase per se. 178 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 9: You know. 179 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 7: Then you have a guy like Arnold Allen, who we 180 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 7: will get to, right who who fights out standingly but 181 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 7: doesn't finish Sadik Yusuf. It almost undercuts himself. In the 182 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 7: post fight interview, he's like, you know, I wasn't gonna 183 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,200 Speaker 7: call for somebody in the top five, but I didn't 184 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:57,520 Speaker 7: finish this absolute warrior. It's like, Arnold, you don't sell 185 00:08:57,520 --> 00:08:59,839 Speaker 7: yourself short, brother. Top five competition is next, you know, 186 00:09:00,679 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 7: But I want to stay on this first before we 187 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,599 Speaker 7: get to all Allan. So Kevin Holland has said a 188 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 7: lot of things to us over the years in our 189 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 7: Fighter meetings. I want to get to two of them. 190 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 7: One thing he said Kempflow is that you know, I'm 191 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 7: a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt and in a grappling 192 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 7: setting in my gym, I submit all these guys like 193 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 7: I'm not so sure that he submits Marvin Vattori in 194 00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:18,640 Speaker 7: his gym in a grappling setting. I guess it's neither 195 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 7: here nor there. But you got anything for me on 196 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 7: that because I don't know. I think that Marvin Vattori 197 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 7: would make things pretty difficult. And as a Brazilian jiu 198 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 7: jitsu brown belt credentialed in his own right. 199 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:32,719 Speaker 8: Yeah, listen, I think a couple of things. Right, we 200 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:37,000 Speaker 8: are most comfortable in our own gym. And I know 201 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 8: I experienced that issue. You know, when I was training 202 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:44,400 Speaker 8: in Boston prior to the bj pen flight, I was 203 00:09:44,520 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 8: never put in any typical situations. I was never really 204 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 8: challenged by guys. Even when I would bring a guy 205 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 8: into train here and there, you know I would probably 206 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:57,679 Speaker 8: I would get the better. So that doesn't that that's 207 00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 8: not a good thing. That doesn't mean that I'm great. 208 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,679 Speaker 8: It means that I need to be pushed, I need 209 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,439 Speaker 8: to be training with better guys. And that was a 210 00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:06,719 Speaker 8: big lesson for me. After the bj pen fight. You know, 211 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 8: I remember Keith asking me, Hey, when was the last 212 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,959 Speaker 8: time someone's been on your back trying to submit? You know, 213 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 8: I was like, uh, I don't know, man, like for real, 214 00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 8: I don't know, And that was a shake in my back. 215 00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 7: That's the luck trying to get there. 216 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,760 Speaker 8: So that was a problem me. It meant I needed 217 00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 8: to be trained with guys who could do that and 218 00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 8: who were going to really try to beat me up. 219 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 8: And for Kevin Holland, it might mean him going elsewhere, 220 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,000 Speaker 8: not not leaving Travis Luter's gym, but you know, training 221 00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 8: with other high level guys or bringing in higher level 222 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 8: jiu jitsu guys because his grappling does need work. 223 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 7: Another thing that Kevin Holland has said to us in 224 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 7: the past was that he's going to take some time 225 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 7: off to invest in his strength and conditioning because to 226 00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,839 Speaker 7: sustain at one hundred and eighty five pounds it's very 227 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 7: hard to do so right now, Daniel Cormier and Domina 228 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,960 Speaker 7: Cruz were very critical of his fundamentals and crews, even 229 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:57,599 Speaker 7: going so far as to say, you know, this is 230 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,599 Speaker 7: basic stuff, but I do belie if he would be 231 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 7: well served to put on some muscle, and when you 232 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:07,280 Speaker 7: keep this type of breakneck UFC schedule, fighting every six weeks, 233 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 7: not having training camps, not only does it not leave 234 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:14,520 Speaker 7: developmental time for wrestling fundamentals, which are very difficult, but 235 00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 7: it doesn't leave a whole lot of time to add 236 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 7: muscle mass. What are your thoughts on Kevin Holland's future 237 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 7: as a bona fide UFC midway contender and how he 238 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 7: should best use his time between flights. 239 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 8: You know, I definitely benefited from doing some strength additioning. 240 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 8: That is always going to help, and I do think 241 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 8: that there's going to be gains for Kevin Holland. I 242 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 8: didn't necessarily see a Kevin Holland that was, you know, 243 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:45,319 Speaker 8: tired during that fight. Necessarily, I still saw, like, like 244 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,160 Speaker 8: Domina Cruz said and Daniel said, a lot of fundamental 245 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:49,439 Speaker 8: issues with this. 246 00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 10: Is how I see it. When I look at what I. 247 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,840 Speaker 8: Need to improve on, is say, what kind of gains 248 00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 8: can I make with let's say, investing in a wrestling 249 00:11:57,000 --> 00:12:00,240 Speaker 8: coach or investing in you know, bringing Brazilian jitsy black 250 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 8: world class presilions to black belts into my into my camp. 251 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 10: Right, I think on a technical. 252 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 8: Level, I could improve let's say thirty percent or forty percent, 253 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 8: you know, in a in a fight camp and like 254 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 8: say three four months time. How much stronger or faster 255 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 8: will I get in a three or four month time? 256 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:21,000 Speaker 10: I don't know. 257 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:26,240 Speaker 8: If you're doing really really solid work, maybe ten percent stronger. 258 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 8: Realistically it's like three or four months. How much stronger 259 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 8: and faster is the human body actually going to get? 260 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 11: Right? 261 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:34,439 Speaker 10: I don't know. 262 00:12:34,559 --> 00:12:36,839 Speaker 8: I think I think the gains are probably minimal in 263 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 8: and in regards to you know, when you compare it 264 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 8: to the technical gains you can make. So I do. 265 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 8: I do agree with you he needs to get bigger 266 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:47,000 Speaker 8: and stronger. He looked way too small against someone like Ventori. 267 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 8: He looked way too small against someone like Brunson. And 268 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 8: I don't think he cuts a whole lot of weight. However, 269 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 8: I think that the investment should be made in his 270 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 8: technical training. There is a lack of grappling knowledge there 271 00:12:58,480 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 8: that he could really. 272 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 7: Use as far as the weight's concerned. How do you 273 00:13:01,960 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 7: feel about John Jones saying publicly that he wants to 274 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 7: be in Ghanu's size or bigger when he moves on 275 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 7: up right? You know, one of the big handicapping angles. 276 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,839 Speaker 7: For me, going into these in Ghanu fights is like, 277 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,240 Speaker 7: is the dude giving up thirty pounds to start right? 278 00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 7: Because there are weight classes and I do believe if 279 00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 7: Kevin Holland is going to realize the championship is probably 280 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 7: gonna have to be down at seventy Do you agree 281 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 7: with Johnny Bones moving all the way up there weight 282 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 7: wise and then cutting it? Can you imagine John Jones 283 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 7: coming out like showing up on Tuesday at like two 284 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:30,319 Speaker 7: seventy four cutting? 285 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, well that's the other thing. You know, he certainly 286 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:39,319 Speaker 8: has some big brothers for sure. So but you know, 287 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:41,199 Speaker 8: if you if you're going to put in that much way, 288 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 8: if you're going to put on that much muscle, and 289 00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 8: if that's even possible, yeah, you want to make sure 290 00:13:46,280 --> 00:13:47,560 Speaker 8: you're putting on the right way. You want to make 291 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,680 Speaker 8: sure it's muscle. But then your body's not necessarily used 292 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 8: to carrying that much muscle. So how does your body 293 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:56,679 Speaker 8: feel after five minutes, ten minutes, fifteen minutes, twenty minutes, 294 00:13:56,720 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 8: twenty five minutes of carrying an. 295 00:13:58,720 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 10: Extra thirty pounds. 296 00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 8: Put a thirty pound backpack on it, right, and go 297 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,120 Speaker 8: do your regular workouts. It's going to be tiring. It's 298 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 8: going to take your body a while to get adjusted's 299 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:08,680 Speaker 8: back right. 300 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:11,800 Speaker 7: So I'm looking at the UFC midweight rankings, and again 301 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,839 Speaker 7: all praise to Marvin Vattori. Right like the Italian Dream 302 00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 7: is a major factor in this one hundred and eighty 303 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 7: five pound division. He's still going to be a pain 304 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 7: in the ass to fight for a lot of these guys. 305 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 7: He doesn't go away, So israelada A Soni is the 306 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 7: champion right now without an obvious opponent. Whittaker and gasolom 307 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 7: are fighting this weekend, so probably going to have a 308 00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 7: more extensive conversation on this next week. Pawlo Costa is 309 00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 7: number two, he's on the mend. Darren Till number five, 310 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 7: he's on the mend. Cannoneer had a major injury. He's three. 311 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,760 Speaker 7: Brunson inventorI round out the top six. So Marvin's getting 312 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 7: a big fight. You know, he's calling for a title 313 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 7: fight and the calendar might just align for that. But 314 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 7: congratulations to Marvin Vtori. We'll see where Kevin Holland goes 315 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:54,359 Speaker 7: from here. Arnold Allen and the go ahead, kid, go ahead. 316 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:56,040 Speaker 8: All right, Sorry, I just wanted I wanted to give 317 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,920 Speaker 8: Holland some props real quick, because you know what, we 318 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 8: were pretty hard and a lot of people were pretty 319 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 8: harsh on Kevin's last performance. He was talking a lot, 320 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 8: but it wasn't the talking necessarily that was the issue. 321 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 8: It was him not he lost that fighting spirit. It 322 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 8: seemed against brunts and he wasn't. It seemed like he 323 00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:18,640 Speaker 8: wasn't trying against against victory. He was most certainly. 324 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 10: Trying and he had that warrior spirit. He was fighting 325 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 10: to the end. 326 00:15:22,080 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 8: He looked like he was trying to win that fight 327 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 8: for every second of that fight, and he deserves props 328 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 8: for that. He came back and although he didn't get 329 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,760 Speaker 8: the win, I think there was some redemption there on 330 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,200 Speaker 8: the part of his character, on the part of him 331 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:36,640 Speaker 8: as a fighter. So I think you should be applauded 332 00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:36,920 Speaker 8: for them. 333 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 7: I agree, and I think it's important that you that 334 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 7: you got that out there. Our producer Cody was texting 335 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 7: me during fight week saying, Man, I'm loving everything I'm 336 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,280 Speaker 7: seeing and hearing out of Kevin. He was absolutely and 337 00:15:47,320 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 7: he was great in our fighter meeting, and you know, 338 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:50,840 Speaker 7: I think just a lot of us in the space 339 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 7: believe in him to such an extent. He just has 340 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 7: so many weapons and so much potential that I think 341 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,280 Speaker 7: if it was harnessed in the right way, you could 342 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,800 Speaker 7: be looking at a real problem. Speaking of problems, Arnold 343 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:04,160 Speaker 7: Allen just continues to get better. I haven't been able 344 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 7: to see him fight live all that often, but every 345 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 7: time I do, I come away wick and impressed and super. 346 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 7: Sadiq Usef I think his championship material in the future 347 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 7: as well. So decision was unanimous for Arnold almighty. Alan Kenfler, 348 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:17,600 Speaker 7: what'd you think of the comin event. 349 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 8: I thought this was the best fight of the night 350 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 8: for me as far as technique and back and forth. 351 00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,920 Speaker 8: Sadiq Usef I thought was winning those rounds, and then 352 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 8: Arnold Allen happened. 353 00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 6: You know. 354 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 8: So Arnold did a great job of landing the bigger strike, 355 00:16:33,560 --> 00:16:36,760 Speaker 8: hurting him almost finishing him on two different occasions in 356 00:16:36,840 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 8: two different rounds. 357 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,080 Speaker 10: Just brilliant stuff there from Arnold Allen. 358 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 8: And then you know, he was really smartness approach as 359 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 8: far as you know, clinching with him and slowing him down. 360 00:16:46,160 --> 00:16:49,400 Speaker 8: Anytime Sadiq Useff started to get some momentum going, it 361 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 8: was either a damaging strike that almost knocked him out 362 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 8: or he would clinch him up and slow him down. 363 00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 8: So I thought it was really brilliant stuff on the 364 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,880 Speaker 8: part of Arnold Allen and his team. Of course, for 365 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 8: rossall Hobby one of the best and smartest in the game. Uh, 366 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 8: so I was really happy for those guys. I thought 367 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 8: Sadik Yusef's speed. You know, Ian was talking about the 368 00:17:07,880 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 8: speed of Arnold Allen. I thought Sadik Yusef was the 369 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 8: was the faster guy. I think he proved that on 370 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:16,560 Speaker 8: Saturday afternoon. But it didn't matter either way. Arnold Allen 371 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,240 Speaker 8: was getting the better of him. He was picking the 372 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 8: better shots and he found a way to win. I 373 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 8: thought that Sadik Yusef showed the heart of a champion. 374 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 8: But Arnold Allen is certainly someone to watch, uh, and 375 00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 8: I was impressed. I think he's a really tough kid 376 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 8: with the bright future. 377 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 12: So good. 378 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:35,080 Speaker 7: And uh his father, Pacer Allan, I was watching some 379 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 7: video of him powerlifting in his backyard. I mean, Arnold 380 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 7: Allen is a strong, strong boy, and uh, you know, 381 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 7: he's ranked number ten in the world right now. Yusef 382 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 7: was eleven and Alan, as I said, sort of cut 383 00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 7: down his own win a little bit. In terms of 384 00:17:49,720 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 7: needing a finish to face somebody in the top five, 385 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,800 Speaker 7: you know, I think he could face a guy like 386 00:17:53,920 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 7: Cater on the men potentially. I'm looking at guys like, yeah, 387 00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 7: you're Rodriguez and Zabat Mago, Med Sharipov, Danny Gay booked 388 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 7: of course, Josh Emma is on the men. Korean Zombie 389 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 7: against Degay. 390 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:05,000 Speaker 8: We'll see. 391 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 7: But Arnold Allen's a real factor. And you don't go 392 00:18:07,520 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 7: eight to zero in the UFC by accident, Kenny, So 393 00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:14,400 Speaker 7: he has really been progressively like match made the right way. 394 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 7: I think they've handled him well with the challenges. He 395 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:20,160 Speaker 7: has had some close fights, He's been challenged in different ways, 396 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,119 Speaker 7: So I think he's been bred to be a champion 397 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 7: the right way. And I'm really excited to see where 398 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:29,440 Speaker 7: they go with Arnold Allen. Julian Marquez certainly resonating with 399 00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 7: fight fans to whatever degree. The Kansas City chiefs now 400 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,120 Speaker 7: know who he is courtesy of a big win over 401 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:37,320 Speaker 7: Smile and Sam Alvi. Fiftieth pro fight for Alvi. So 402 00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 7: much respect to Sam Alvi in defeat, But what'd you 403 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 7: think of the Julian Marquez submission there on the main card? 404 00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'll listen. 405 00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 8: I think really the finishing move was the shots, right, 406 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 8: I mean, he really finished him with the striking. Alvi 407 00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 8: was completely out of it, and then of course the 408 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 8: guillotine really was kind of the cherry on top. That 409 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,080 Speaker 8: was a good way to put someone out like like Alvi, 410 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 8: who was, you know, obviously determined to keep fighting. And 411 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 8: I thought Marcus did a good job largely, you know, 412 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 8: I think that he still needs to get better defensively, 413 00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 8: but I think he did a great job of getting 414 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:20,440 Speaker 8: a very tough dude in Alvi out of there getting 415 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 8: a big win. And you know, finishing that submission is 416 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 8: not easy, but it really started with those big shots. 417 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 8: He hurt Alvi on a couple of different occasions. Marcus 418 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 8: hit extremely hard. He's an athletic dude, and he seems 419 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 8: like a fun, goofy guy, so he seems like a 420 00:19:37,040 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 8: fun guy to hang out with. 421 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 7: McKenzie Dern over Nina Nunez by arm bar with twelve 422 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:48,400 Speaker 7: seconds to go in round one. Mackenzie Dern is unbelievable. 423 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 7: I'm not sure there's any fighter on the roster whom 424 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,560 Speaker 7: I enjoy preparing to call a fight for than Mackenzie 425 00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 7: because I always get to go back and watch that 426 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 7: Gabby Garcia jiu jitsu match, even just for a couple 427 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 7: of minutes, to see here out grapple somebody that weighs 428 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:03,880 Speaker 7: one hundred and twenty seven pounds more than she does. 429 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 7: But uh, you know Anakin flor In pod pole question today, 430 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 7: we'll talk about this win singularly, but whole question today. 431 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 7: Will Mackenzie Durned be a UFC champion before her MMA 432 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 7: career is over? Sixty two percent of you believe that 433 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 7: she will, and I would be among that sixty two percent. 434 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 7: A lot of different stylistic challenges above her in the 435 00:20:22,160 --> 00:20:24,879 Speaker 7: top ten at one hundred and fifteen pounds, Tatiana Suarez 436 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,000 Speaker 7: would make for a fascinating fight, but Mackenzie Dern is 437 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,119 Speaker 7: on the fast track. Can flow your thoughts on another 438 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,919 Speaker 7: submission win for the submission Queen Mackenzie Dern, you know, when. 439 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 8: You put into the context of what Nina Answroff has 440 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,359 Speaker 8: accomplished and the kind of fighter that she is, I 441 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 8: think I think it elevates that win that much more 442 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 8: for Mackenzie Dern. Nina is not an easy girl to 443 00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 8: put away. She is as tough as they come very 444 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 8: good grappler. She is tough from the long range. When 445 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 8: it comes to striking as well, She's a smart fighter, 446 00:20:54,760 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 8: and Mackenzie Dern was able to take all of that 447 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 8: away from her. And it shows also the level that 448 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,920 Speaker 8: she has on the ground. Again, it wasn't a huge 449 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:05,480 Speaker 8: surprise as far as what she was able to do 450 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 8: on the ground. She's gonna be able to do that 451 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,879 Speaker 8: to anyone in the division, Let's be honest. On the ground, 452 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 8: he's just gonna be able to do that. I don't 453 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,720 Speaker 8: care if you're Valentina Chipchenko. 454 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:16,439 Speaker 10: Or rosnaomi Unis, or you. 455 00:21:16,480 --> 00:21:20,960 Speaker 8: Know Janguay Lee, Jeang Wui Lee. She's gonna mess you 456 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:25,159 Speaker 8: up on the ground. She's just that good. She's I 457 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,480 Speaker 8: guess you could say she's the best jiu jitsu black 458 00:21:28,560 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 8: belt to ever compete in the women's division. I mean, 459 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 8: you look at her pedigree and what she's accomplished. She 460 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:37,480 Speaker 8: is extremely impressive. She is improving her striking, she's improving 461 00:21:37,520 --> 00:21:41,400 Speaker 8: her wrestling, and I think if she's able to get 462 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 8: some more experience I would like to slow that down 463 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,000 Speaker 8: a little bit, that trajectory in some ways, because I 464 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 8: think experience will be her best friend. Moving forward, I'd 465 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 8: like to see her striking get a little better. I'd 466 00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 8: like to see your wrestling get a little bit better. 467 00:21:53,119 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 8: But she's on the right path, man, And again she 468 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 8: gets into the ground against anybody in that division, she's 469 00:21:58,560 --> 00:21:59,600 Speaker 8: going to win, period. 470 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 7: And she is in that Jackata Damien my conversation right 471 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 7: in terms of the most world class Brazilian jiu jitsu 472 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 7: practitioners to ever cross into the UFC, and I'm gonna 473 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 7: say this sort of to make Kenflo laugh and hopefully 474 00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 7: he does. Right, but you know, she'll go over to 475 00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 7: the American top team corner with the greatest of all 476 00:22:13,680 --> 00:22:16,040 Speaker 7: time Amanda Nunez and one of the greatest jiu jitsu 477 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:18,080 Speaker 7: coaches in the MMA, s Base Bahoop are right there 478 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 7: with an athlete in Nina Nunez who knows exactly how 479 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 7: to defend all these positions. Right, So go right over 480 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 7: into the corner and submit Nina in front of all 481 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 7: you've got people, and those are some of my favorite 482 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 7: people in the world. But she is unbelievable. And in 483 00:22:31,960 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 7: terms of the fast track, like I think that's the 484 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 7: only point on which we disagree, Like Brian Ortega is 485 00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:39,680 Speaker 7: a good point of comparison, and I think it was 486 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 7: my friend, our friend Derek Thompson from our UFC crew 487 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 7: who brought this up to me, maybe after the fact, 488 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 7: but you know, Brian Ortega in his division, he kind 489 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 7: of had to develop elite striking in hands right to 490 00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:53,960 Speaker 7: go with the whole jiu jitsu package if he was 491 00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 7: going to become champion. And he's going to get another 492 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 7: opportunity to become champion. You know, Mackenzie Dern at one 493 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 7: hundred and fifteen pounds the deepest women's vision right, the 494 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:03,320 Speaker 7: hands do have to close that gap. But I don't 495 00:23:03,359 --> 00:23:05,560 Speaker 7: know that she needs to get as good at striking 496 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 7: as Brian Ortega does necessarily to become champion. But I 497 00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,080 Speaker 7: do believe that having only had eleven months or ten 498 00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 7: months with Jason Pirillo, like wait till she's had three 499 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 7: years with her with him as her striking coach, I'm 500 00:23:19,880 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 7: really excited to see where she can come. 501 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 10: John. 502 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 8: I think that's a valid point. The only thing I 503 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 8: would add is that, you know, and that's why I 504 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 8: think it's imperative that she gets better with her wrestling, 505 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 8: you know, being able to get it to the mat 506 00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:34,359 Speaker 8: and especially getting on top of anyone in that division. 507 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 8: They're done, They're done. Mackenzie will submit you. It's like 508 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,840 Speaker 8: playing Wayne Gretzky back in the day. You can't stop them, 509 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:43,639 Speaker 8: you can only hope to contain. That's McKenzie Dern on 510 00:23:43,680 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 8: the ground. 511 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:44,280 Speaker 6: Yeah. 512 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 7: Unbelievable, so fun to watch, and I just love the 513 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 7: way she has embraced everything about mixed martial arts now 514 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 7: because that wasn't always the case. And it almost seems 515 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 7: as though she needed a child to surface this type 516 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 7: of motivation. 517 00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 10: It's true, she looks a tremendous way. 518 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 9: She was ripped. 519 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,200 Speaker 8: That's the buff I've ever seen her physically, spiritually, she 520 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 8: was just in a great place. You could see it. 521 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 7: And now she's putting training camp on top of training 522 00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 7: life and the results really speaks to that. But I 523 00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 7: remember one of my first fighter meetings with Mackenzie Dern 524 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 7: and she said, you know, I'm hoping to win the 525 00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:20,160 Speaker 7: UFC Shrawey title, defend the belt, and then go back 526 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 7: to the jiu jitsu world. And I do believe that 527 00:24:23,080 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 7: maybe those goals have changed. We didn't have a fighter 528 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 7: meeting with her this time around. We did have a 529 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,199 Speaker 7: media scrum and we've spoken to her quite a bit, 530 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 7: but I don't know. I think those goals might have changed, 531 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 7: and I'd be very interested to see her right now 532 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 7: against anybody in the top five. And she is so focused, 533 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:40,040 Speaker 7: hyper focused in the best of ways on the division 534 00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 7: that she kept talking about all these big strawet fights 535 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 7: that are about to happen. Of course, the title fight 536 00:24:44,440 --> 00:24:46,159 Speaker 7: coming up in two weeks, and then Jan Chauna and 537 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:49,040 Speaker 7: Carla as Barza in May. So Mackenzie Dearn is going 538 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 7: to factor prominently in that equation and couldn't happen to 539 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,800 Speaker 7: a better young woman. Speaking of good things happening to 540 00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:58,879 Speaker 7: good people, how about Daniel d Rodriguez by unanimous decision 541 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 7: over Platinum Mike Perry. Daniel Rodriguez had less than two 542 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,239 Speaker 7: weeks to prepare for his first four UFC fights, right, 543 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,560 Speaker 7: so two weeks for some ten days for others full 544 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 7: training camp. Physically can flow looked like a totally different 545 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 7: guy in terms of the tightness of his physique. And 546 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:16,959 Speaker 7: I don't know, I think he's a special striker. Can 547 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 7: lean on some Eddie Bravo Brazilian jiu jitsu credentials if 548 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 7: need be as well, And I don't know, I really 549 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 7: like d Rod four and one out of the shooting 550 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 7: here in the UFC Welterweight division. 551 00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:27,439 Speaker 8: Your thoughts, you know, Listen, I thought that he had 552 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:30,080 Speaker 8: an excellent performance against Mike Perry, who is a very 553 00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:35,080 Speaker 8: dangerous fighter, and he utilized the right weapons at the 554 00:25:35,200 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 8: right time. That job was pumping and that left hand, 555 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 8: you know, was tremendous as well. Hurt Perry on multiple occasions, 556 00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 8: and he just proved to be the more technical, more 557 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,920 Speaker 8: well rounded fighter out there, did a good job of 558 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 8: keeping his composure when he got taken down, was able 559 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 8: to get back to his feet, And yeah, I think 560 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 8: d Rod is someone to watch, and he's someone that 561 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 8: is improving and is really looking like he's a student 562 00:26:03,520 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 8: of the game. He's not just out there to brawl. 563 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 8: I think if he brawled more, he would have had 564 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 8: much more trouble against Perry. But he was smart, he 565 00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 8: was composed. He knew that he was the longer striker 566 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 8: and he used it to his advantage. And you know, 567 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 8: Mike Perry really took a lot of damage out there. 568 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:23,440 Speaker 8: But man, I thought it was a really solid performance 569 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 8: firm d Run. 570 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 7: So I talked to my friend, says Carnero from MMA 571 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 7: Masters the night before the Mike Perry fight, and they 572 00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:33,000 Speaker 7: had a conflict in South Florida that they could not miss. 573 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 7: So that's why Daniel Valverti and says Or Cornero were 574 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 7: not there to corner Mike Perry. But they said so 575 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 7: many nice things about him. Kenflow, that he's attended every 576 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 7: group class he's like teaching. I mean, he's really been 577 00:26:42,880 --> 00:26:45,840 Speaker 7: motivated by his son, not onlike Mackenzie Durham by her daughter. 578 00:26:46,000 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 7: And I think the fact that he was one hundred 579 00:26:48,240 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 7: and seventy pounds and not one seventy one is a 580 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 7: little bit telling. But he is seven and eight now 581 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:54,639 Speaker 7: in the UFC is platinum Mike Perry, so he has 582 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 7: backed himself into a corner. Now Kenny essentially has a 583 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 7: must win in his next fight, which is the last 584 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,280 Speaker 7: fight on his contract. What do you think about Mike 585 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 7: Perry real quick? I mean, some would say he's undersized 586 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 7: for this division and there are gonna be some really tough, 587 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 7: long challenges for him at welter wait. I like that 588 00:27:09,920 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 7: he's willingly mixing it up with the wrestling, and I 589 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 7: do think the more time he spends at MMA Masters 590 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 7: with Colby Covington and those guys the better. But I 591 00:27:17,760 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 7: don't know. Man, Perry's really discouraged, you know, he said 592 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 7: on social media. I used to be good, and he's 593 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 7: having a hard time finding the stroke these days. 594 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 10: You know, it can be fixed. I truly believe that. 595 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 8: I think that Mike Perry is as tough as they come. 596 00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:35,679 Speaker 8: I think that, you know, having a child can definitely 597 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 8: keep you focused. I think he needs to stay with 598 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 8: that focus and continued being, continued to be a student 599 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,119 Speaker 8: of the game. His listen. His biggest problem, like so 600 00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:48,440 Speaker 8: many UFC fighters out there, is he needs to fix 601 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:53,080 Speaker 8: his footwork and his defensive capabilities. That is always going 602 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 8: to be his weakness. If he doesn't fix that, he's 603 00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:58,680 Speaker 8: too flat footed. He comes, you know, in a direct 604 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 8: straight line into people's punches, which is not advisable even 605 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 8: if you have a superhuman chin. 606 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 10: Like Mike Perry. 607 00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 8: But yeah, so I'd like to see him create more angles. 608 00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 8: I'd like to see him a little bit more bouncy 609 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,440 Speaker 8: on his feet. If he's able to fix his forework, 610 00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 8: I think he's going to make huge changes in his 611 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 8: game and can be a completely different fighter. 612 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 7: I hope so, I hope so I don't think I 613 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 7: have a great chin. This guy Brian Foster at Gettysburg 614 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,720 Speaker 7: College back in the day. He didn't even hit me 615 00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 7: that hard and I did not take that that shocker. Well, 616 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 7: I don't think Longo's in the lobby yet. Could you 617 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 7: imagine if we now spend like ten minutes on SELETI 618 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 7: and Gamrot and Longo's waiting, the dude would absolutely kill me. 619 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 7: All right, So Joe Seleci over Jim Miller in a 620 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:48,240 Speaker 7: prelim fight by unanimous decision, So one of the three 621 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:51,120 Speaker 7: judges had at thirty to twenty seven SELECTI. So how 622 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 7: you don't give Jim Miller that first round when he 623 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,240 Speaker 7: outgrappled Seleci to that like it's an effective grappling round. 624 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,760 Speaker 7: It's like, what are you fucking watching out there? Go ahead? 625 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 8: Please? 626 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 9: Yeah? 627 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 8: How do you how do you give Jim Miller? How 628 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 8: do you give SELECTI the first round but then give 629 00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 8: SELECTI the second to not give SELECTI the sect. 630 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:10,960 Speaker 9: You know what I mean? 631 00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 8: Like, how does that happen where you can give SELECTI 632 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 8: both the first and the second because SELECTI did the 633 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:20,240 Speaker 8: exact same thing that Miller did in the first. 634 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 7: So I don't know, so two of the three judges 635 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,040 Speaker 7: had it right two to one for giving him. 636 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 8: Right. 637 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:29,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, thirty to twenty seven. Yeah, in saying that you 638 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 7: could watch those five minutes and write down ten nine SELECTI, 639 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 7: maybe maybe they just got the fighters confused anyway, So 640 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 7: you know, I feel like you sort of were insinuating, 641 00:29:39,320 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 7: and I don't disagree that maybe Marvin Ventori could have 642 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 7: done a little bit more, you know, even just showing 643 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 7: you a few things that made you feel like he 644 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 7: was a little bit more dangerous on the feet. So 645 00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:51,280 Speaker 7: I think this is a nice win for Joe SELECTI, 646 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 7: but not unlike Vittori, I was expecting to see a 647 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 7: little bit more. I still think the ceiling is high 648 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 7: for Joe select What what are your thoughts on where 649 00:30:00,040 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 7: he is young man three and zero in the US. 650 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 8: Listen, I think that's fair John, You know, I think 651 00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 8: for SELECTI to go against an experience veteran like Jim 652 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,120 Speaker 8: Miller is no easy task. However, we do use veterans 653 00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:17,040 Speaker 8: as the measuring stick, right. Jim Miller is a guy 654 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 8: that's kind of I would never say gatekeeper in a way, 655 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,959 Speaker 8: but he's certainly an excellent measuring stick to how far 656 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 8: you can go in that lightweight division, which is absolutely stacked, 657 00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 8: and I think it was. It was a very close fight. 658 00:30:31,560 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 8: I think he's gonna learn a lot from that experience. 659 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 8: But as far as you know Seleci's trajectory, I don't 660 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 8: think we are all as high on him as well 661 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 8: as we would have liked to see. But I do 662 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 8: think he is going to get a lot better from 663 00:30:46,200 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 8: that fight, and he's going to fix a lot of things, 664 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 8: and he's gonna get his footwork better and all that stuff. 665 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 8: But I think he did a good job of doing 666 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 8: what he needed to do to win that fight. I 667 00:30:56,800 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 8: did have him losing that first round. He did a 668 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 8: great job of coming back and fighting back against a 669 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 8: really tough opponent in Miller and getting the win. So 670 00:31:04,520 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 8: I think he'll learn a lot from it and get 671 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 8: better from that experience. However, I agree he's got some 672 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 8: work to do, but you know every fighter does. 673 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 7: We should do a two minute drill so we can 674 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 7: spend two minutes on all these performances. We congratulate Mattauje, Gamro, 675 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,800 Speaker 7: Jackshore and everybody else, and potentially more of that coming 676 00:31:20,880 --> 00:31:23,600 Speaker 7: up with Longo. And speaking of which, guess who's in 677 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 7: the lobby, right, whoa, we only made him wait like 678 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,360 Speaker 7: ninety seconds.

Ray Long goes still in 740 00:34:24,880 --> 00:34:28,120 Speaker 7: the corner though. All right, So Aljamain Sterling is having 741 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 7: neck surgery, and we all wish Al Joe the best. 742 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 7: He seems to be optimistic as to the recovery, maybe 743 00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:37,520 Speaker 7: maybe only three months before he's able to resume cardiovascular 744 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 7: type training. But man, there's a lot of layers to 745 00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,680 Speaker 7: this Ray given the nature of the title fight and 746 00:34:44,800 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 7: everything else that is going on. I'd imagine there was 747 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,800 Speaker 7: some sort of decision as to whether or not, you know, 748 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 7: to go through with this. What what can you tell 749 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 7: us as far as the neck and how Aljamyne is doing, 750 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 7: if you'd be so kind. 751 00:34:56,040 --> 00:34:58,560 Speaker 13: Uh you know, mentally, I think he's in a good spot. 752 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:00,960 Speaker 13: Uh you know, physically his I think it was his 753 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,400 Speaker 13: left price up. He was you know, was shrinking or 754 00:35:04,440 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 13: he was had some atrophy and he didn't have the strength. 755 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:11,240 Speaker 13: But uh, I thought, uh, you know, he was getting 756 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 13: the surgery, then he was going to try to rehab, 757 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 13: and then I think he went back to the doctor. 758 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:17,640 Speaker 13: They were going back and forth, and he just decided 759 00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 13: to have the surgery. I mean, I me, personally, I 760 00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,319 Speaker 13: would have rather see if he could have got through 761 00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 13: it with that rematch and then you know, handled business 762 00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 13: from there. But uh, you know, if he feels like 763 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 13: that's what he has to do to be mentally confident, 764 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 13: especially uh, then that's what he's going to do. So 765 00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:38,600 Speaker 13: I think it definitely crazy timing. I mean, you know, 766 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,399 Speaker 13: I mean, this guy can't even get next surgery without 767 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 13: people coming out of the woodworking and crapping all over me. 768 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 7: Well, and the real issue too, is that this will 769 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 7: probably just give those people more fuel, unform and more ammunition. 770 00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,040 Speaker 7: It's really disgusting and a lot of respects, right because, uh, 771 00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,000 Speaker 7: he might he might lose this young fight now, I 772 00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:59,239 Speaker 7: mean Kenviller, hopefully he doesn't get stripped of the title. 773 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:00,800 Speaker 7: I mean, Kenny, do you think they try to do 774 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 7: like an interim belt? 775 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:02,839 Speaker 9: Like what do you do? Well? 776 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 8: That that's my concern for Aljo at this point, right, 777 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,479 Speaker 8: you know, the unfortunate circumstances around you know, his last 778 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:13,360 Speaker 8: fight are there. Uh and now with the surgery, you know, 779 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 8: pushing things back a little bit, I'd imagine they they 780 00:36:18,000 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 8: might be leaning towards taking the belt away from him now, 781 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 8: especially since we don't know exactly when he's going to 782 00:36:23,960 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 8: be coming back from this next surgery, which can can 783 00:36:27,840 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 8: definitely take some time. 784 00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:32,839 Speaker 9: Man, And you got to hope everything goes right. 785 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:35,239 Speaker 13: I think Wideman had the back team surgery, so I 786 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:40,640 Speaker 13: think he's getting official disc uh see six maybe a seven. 787 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 9: But I mean you have to talk to him, I forget. 788 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 10: So this is something he's been dealing with for for 789 00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 10: a for a while now, right. 790 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,880 Speaker 13: Or he's always had neck problems, But I you know, 791 00:36:49,360 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 13: I think this exacerbated it, you know, getting neat like that. 792 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 7: So uh, I mean, I would imagine if you're the 793 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 7: athlete and you can prove medically you know how dire 794 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:02,920 Speaker 7: the circumstances are, and you make it harder to be 795 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:06,279 Speaker 7: stripped of the belt. I mean, I can understand why Yon, 796 00:37:06,440 --> 00:37:08,120 Speaker 7: given the way he looked in the fight up until 797 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 7: that colossal mistake that shouldn't just be discounted by people 798 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 7: by the way, you know. I finally saw al Joe 799 00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:15,479 Speaker 7: Ray and I tried to like tell the guy, it's like, dude, 800 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,919 Speaker 7: like you still had to get to the title fight 801 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,480 Speaker 7: and the champion made a mistake, you know. But for Yan, 802 00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 7: because of how good he looked and how excited everybody 803 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:25,919 Speaker 7: is about him, I wouldn't be surprised if they would 804 00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:27,800 Speaker 7: try to turn him around in an interim setting in 805 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:30,439 Speaker 7: a few months here. But hopefully they don't strip your guy. 806 00:37:30,600 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 7: That sounds harsh to me. 807 00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 13: Who knows what they're gonna do. But you know, like again, 808 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,440 Speaker 13: I think you hit on something. It really is unfortunate. 809 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:40,920 Speaker 13: The guy took an illegal knee and it was pretty bad, you. 810 00:37:40,960 --> 00:37:41,440 Speaker 9: Know what I mean. 811 00:37:41,600 --> 00:37:47,120 Speaker 13: And I don't know, well, I mean, it really kind 812 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 13: of the timing of everything just stinks. And I think 813 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 13: because of it, like you said, because of the circumstances 814 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 13: and the way it went down. 815 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:57,840 Speaker 9: I can't see this being a good thing. But the 816 00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 9: good thing is he'll be healthy. I mean that. 817 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 13: And like again, we overlooked, we were overlooking, you know, 818 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 13: the safety of the fighter all the time. But it's 819 00:38:07,040 --> 00:38:10,920 Speaker 13: just crazy. But yeah, he's he's definitely not getting any 820 00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 13: sympathy from his from the base. 821 00:38:13,320 --> 00:38:16,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, he's got to tune out that noise as 822 00:38:16,200 --> 00:38:18,239 Speaker 7: best he can. Banham Wight is so good right now. 823 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 7: I don't know if you saw what Jack Shore did 824 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 7: this weekend to improve to fourteen and h but I 825 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 7: mean it's like Jack Shore. I don't know what the 826 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:26,680 Speaker 7: UFC rankings are. He might be like number thirty in 827 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 7: the world, and the dude looks like he can beat 828 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:31,440 Speaker 7: some guys in you know, the bottom half of that 829 00:38:31,520 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 7: top fifteen. Potentially in a year or two, we'll see 830 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:36,399 Speaker 7: what they do. Hey, what'd you think of the show 831 00:38:36,480 --> 00:38:36,920 Speaker 7: on ABC? 832 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 9: Ray? 833 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,800 Speaker 7: What did you think of the early start time, the 834 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 7: main event? What he have for us on the but 835 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 7: Tory Holland. 836 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 13: Card, Well, you know, I got back late Friday night, 837 00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,279 Speaker 13: so I got to the gym. I didn't even know 838 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 13: it was on that early. I was so looking forward 839 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 13: to doing my thing at the gym and going home 840 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,680 Speaker 13: and watching the fights that it kind of somebody's you know, 841 00:38:54,719 --> 00:38:55,920 Speaker 13: I walked in in the fights one. 842 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 9: I go, you gotta be kidneying. 843 00:38:56,960 --> 00:38:59,000 Speaker 13: They said, no, the main event starts at three, So 844 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 13: I really I'm going to say, probably only caught the 845 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:02,920 Speaker 13: main event. 846 00:39:03,400 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 9: Do you have cable? 847 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 7: Do you have cable at home? 848 00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:06,200 Speaker 10: Still? Yeah? 849 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, all right, no, you and me both, I'm 850 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:10,279 Speaker 7: saying there a lot of people don't have cable. You know, 851 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 7: Gentflo looks like a little bit like a cord cutter 852 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:12,960 Speaker 7: to me. 853 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:13,400 Speaker 12: I don't know. 854 00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,800 Speaker 7: No, they watch on like devices, right, so they're like 855 00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,879 Speaker 7: they'll buy ESPN Plus and Hulu and whatever the hell else, 856 00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:23,120 Speaker 7: but they won't like people, they won't have like Comcast, 857 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 7: you know, they won't have like Exfinity boxes at the house. 858 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 9: You know, so the stream is you're talking about see 859 00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:29,480 Speaker 9: For me. 860 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 7: Though, it's like I hate having to go into an 861 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 7: application to watch a UFC fight night, you know, like 862 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,719 Speaker 7: I want to be able to turn on my TV, 863 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:37,680 Speaker 7: you know, flip from Dinah's drive ins and dives right 864 00:39:37,719 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 7: back to UFC Fight Night. I don't want to have 865 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,439 Speaker 7: to change the input and all that, right, you feel 866 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:42,040 Speaker 7: at all. 867 00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 9: Fail you? 868 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 7: So, well, what do you think about Marvin Vattori? Because 869 00:39:47,920 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 7: this middleweight division is very interesting right now? You know, 870 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:55,480 Speaker 7: Ken Flow sort of liked it overall, no argument with domination, 871 00:39:55,640 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 7: but maybe didn't maximize the showcase to the extent to 872 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,160 Speaker 7: which some thought he could. Would you think of Marvin 873 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:01,960 Speaker 7: Vittry Raymond? 874 00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:02,480 Speaker 9: Now? 875 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:06,040 Speaker 13: Listen, I thought Victory did great. I thought he fought 876 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:08,120 Speaker 13: a smart fight based on what he saw with the 877 00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 13: brunts and fight. And look, he takes a big chance 878 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:15,359 Speaker 13: with taking this guy at last. Man, he's very dangerous standing. 879 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:15,799 Speaker 9: Up and. 880 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 13: I honestly I give it up to both guys. I 881 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 13: like the fact that Holland came in more serious, you 882 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 13: know what I mean. He wasn't playing around, but he definitely, 883 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 13: unequivocally now knows he's got a major deficit in his game. 884 00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,719 Speaker 13: You know that he's got to work on for sure. 885 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:39,919 Speaker 13: And like again Victory, you know he wants to fight. 886 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 13: He proves that man, he didn't give me who they 887 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 13: were going to put in there. I do think you know, 888 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,000 Speaker 13: on the feat, Holland's very dangerous and he didn't care 889 00:40:47,320 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 13: and he did what he had to do, which didn't 890 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:52,360 Speaker 13: make for maybe the most exciting fight, but you know 891 00:40:52,480 --> 00:40:55,399 Speaker 13: he was able to have that output over five rounds 892 00:40:55,440 --> 00:40:55,960 Speaker 13: and win the fight. 893 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:57,759 Speaker 9: I thought it was a smart fight. 894 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 7: And I appreciate you giving Marvin credit, right because oftentimes 895 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 7: in these short note of situations, it's only the guy 896 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 7: who's not on the books who gets the credit for 897 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:09,479 Speaker 7: stepping up, you know, like Feller deserved all the credit 898 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:13,560 Speaker 7: in the war to fight half al Dosandra. Mardier still 899 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:15,359 Speaker 7: has to take the fight too, you know, That's all 900 00:41:15,400 --> 00:41:16,960 Speaker 7: I was saying. But Tory still has to take the 901 00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 7: fight too. And there are a lot of guys who 902 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,000 Speaker 7: are like, you know what, it's not worth it to 903 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 7: fight Kevin Holland. I'm not going to save the day guy. 904 00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 13: He's that guy that could be a spoiler obviously, but 905 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 13: uh again, Vittori worked off the fact what he saw 906 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:33,759 Speaker 13: in that runs and fight, and look, he he won 907 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,160 Speaker 13: that fight, and he wanted easily, and then you know, 908 00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:37,319 Speaker 13: I know about easily, but he. 909 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:38,160 Speaker 9: Won the fight. 910 00:41:38,560 --> 00:41:41,640 Speaker 7: I love I'm not getting an Italian flag. 911 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 13: There's one thing about him, that kid, he wants to fight. 912 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:50,560 Speaker 13: You know, you're gonna have to knock him out to 913 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:53,759 Speaker 13: beat him or choke him out or you know, but 914 00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:55,160 Speaker 13: he he wants to fight. 915 00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:58,439 Speaker 9: And he proved it with with just accepting that fight, 916 00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:02,280 Speaker 9: and he saved the main event, and so did Holland. 917 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 13: And I give Holland credit to for jumping in right 918 00:42:05,239 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 13: after the defeat the brunts, and so I think it 919 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,280 Speaker 13: was good all the way around. Was it I appealing 920 00:42:10,520 --> 00:42:13,600 Speaker 13: on ABC? Probably not. That's not the fight they wanted. 921 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 13: But as far as performance was, you can I don't 922 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 13: think you can argue with it. You know, you have 923 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,760 Speaker 13: to you and you want three rounds. 924 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 7: So sorry, I just got distracted thinking that Game Bread 925 00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 7: Oosman two can flow might be a good opportunity for 926 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 7: for the second tattoo bet or third tattoo. Really I 927 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,360 Speaker 7: like it getting the game Bread anyway, So why not 928 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,120 Speaker 7: if game Bread beats Kamara Ousman, we get the game 929 00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:41,359 Speaker 7: Bread tattoo on the other side on the other arm. 930 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:42,959 Speaker 7: So then we got two on nine on the left 931 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 7: arm for West Coast and game Bread on the right 932 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 7: arm for East Coast. You know, don't you love it. 933 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:51,200 Speaker 8: When your career is over. You're gonna look like you're 934 00:42:51,200 --> 00:42:53,280 Speaker 8: gonna look like a you know, a gangster. 935 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:53,759 Speaker 9: I like it. 936 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:56,759 Speaker 7: It's the laughing stock of MMA fans around the world. 937 00:42:56,920 --> 00:43:01,720 Speaker 7: And I could not care less Ray anything. 938 00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,520 Speaker 9: We all are at this point. 939 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, it is what it is. 940 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 6: It is what it is. 941 00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 7: But anything else, Ray, before we let you fly.

This is this this la This past weekend 1152 00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,480 Speaker 2: Kenny was a tough one for you, so just use you, 1153 00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:40,520 Speaker 2: you know, just use that when you're fighting for the PFL. 1154 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:42,759 Speaker 2: Just use that energy when you step in the cage. 1155 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 7: And he was fine one of our early main event challenges. 1156 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:48,520 Speaker 7: It was a different listener on every single week and 1157 00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,880 Speaker 7: we do have a bankroll of listeners ready to go 1158 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 7: UH as well this year, but Ian Parker continues to 1159 00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:55,400 Speaker 7: hold down the slot. I look at him, shake his 1160 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:56,359 Speaker 7: head like, what are you guys doing? 1161 00:52:56,680 --> 00:52:58,520 Speaker 2: I just have a perfect week, and he's talking about 1162 00:52:58,560 --> 00:52:59,239 Speaker 2: no no, no, no, no no no. 1163 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,319 Speaker 7: I'm saying there was one year. There was one year 1164 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:04,239 Speaker 7: where we had like fifty different listeners and it really 1165 00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 7: came down to the wire. But what I was going 1166 00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 7: to say is the last three years, Ken Flow has 1167 00:53:08,520 --> 00:53:10,600 Speaker 7: dug a lead and more often than not he does 1168 00:53:10,680 --> 00:53:13,120 Speaker 7: come out of it to win. But Ian obviously is 1169 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 7: in a good handicapping flow and why don't we get 1170 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 7: back to it. It's UFC fight out Whicker versus GASOLM 1171 00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:20,440 Speaker 7: unless you have anything else, And I do love you, 1172 00:53:20,560 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 7: but just trying to be good to the listeners out 1173 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:23,719 Speaker 7: there who all want your jump too. 1174 00:53:23,800 --> 00:53:25,160 Speaker 10: You know that's cool. Listen. 1175 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 2: Look, then I'll just build a bigger lead so if 1176 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:31,440 Speaker 2: someone for a weekend and this loves can flow too much, 1177 00:53:31,480 --> 00:53:33,680 Speaker 2: they want to give him the picks. Whatever, It's cool again. 1178 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:35,680 Speaker 7: As long as you come in as Ryan Tracy did 1179 00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:37,480 Speaker 7: a couple of weeks ago from Travis Matthew and beat 1180 00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:39,120 Speaker 7: Ken Flow two to one as he did, then Ian 1181 00:53:39,160 --> 00:53:40,880 Speaker 7: has no issues with you. It's when you start to 1182 00:53:41,920 --> 00:53:44,120 Speaker 7: chip away at his lead in his absence, when he 1183 00:53:44,239 --> 00:53:46,440 Speaker 7: sends somebody to your house with all of his resources. 1184 00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:48,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, guys, if you're going to jump in for the duck, 1185 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:50,040 Speaker 2: just at least like go to share dog and like 1186 00:53:50,080 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 2: look up a record because somebody, some of you guys 1187 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:54,399 Speaker 2: were throwing some picks out there that I literally text 1188 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 2: John and said, please don't hold it against me. Ken 1189 00:53:56,560 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 2: he even texted me and said, hey, look I may 1190 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:00,560 Speaker 2: not hold this pick against you. Some of them are 1191 00:54:00,920 --> 00:54:03,160 Speaker 2: a little tough. But it's all good banging. 1192 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:05,080 Speaker 7: Now he's banging on the other cappers. All right, We're 1193 00:54:05,080 --> 00:54:08,040 Speaker 7: gonna start with the main card bout at middleweight Abdul 1194 00:54:08,080 --> 00:54:12,160 Speaker 7: Razach al Hassen minus three hundred, Jacob Malcoun plus two 1195 00:54:12,280 --> 00:54:14,719 Speaker 7: fifty Ian so al Hassen moving up after missing weight 1196 00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,239 Speaker 7: in his last two at Welterwait those ended up being 1197 00:54:17,280 --> 00:54:21,239 Speaker 7: losses to Chaos Williams and Mounier Lezez Malkuhn on the 1198 00:54:21,280 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 7: other side, melted by Phil Hawson eighteen seconds on Fight 1199 00:54:24,719 --> 00:54:26,880 Speaker 7: Island and his UFC debut Ip who do you have? 1200 00:54:27,680 --> 00:54:27,839 Speaker 8: Yeah? 1201 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:30,000 Speaker 2: Look, if al Hassen doesn't get this win, he's gone. 1202 00:54:30,080 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 2: There's no question He's had enough time to kind of 1203 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:33,880 Speaker 2: bounce back and finding a guy who I think is 1204 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,480 Speaker 2: four and one with very little experience, who also likes 1205 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:38,759 Speaker 2: to strike. I'm gonna go with al Hassen here just 1206 00:54:38,840 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 2: because he has to win. 1207 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,440 Speaker 7: Can Flow Malcun al Hassen? 1208 00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:42,800 Speaker 12: Who do you have? 1209 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:45,279 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm gonna go with al Housen as well. 1210 00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 8: I do think that his back is against the wall here, 1211 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,000 Speaker 8: but I do think that he matches up well and 1212 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 8: should get the win. 1213 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:55,960 Speaker 7: I like Jacob Malcoun as well, the longtime training partner 1214 00:54:56,080 --> 00:54:59,320 Speaker 7: of Robert Whittaker, but he is also undersized at middleweight 1215 00:54:59,360 --> 00:55:01,040 Speaker 7: if you want to say at abdul Razak al Hassen, 1216 00:55:01,040 --> 00:55:03,359 Speaker 7: who is moving up his undersize. So we'll see how 1217 00:55:03,400 --> 00:55:05,799 Speaker 7: it goes. But three to one on the favorite side 1218 00:55:05,840 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 7: for abdul Razzak Alhassen, all Right, the age with Andre 1219 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,719 Speaker 7: Rolovsky minus one seventy five Chase Sherman plus one fifty 1220 00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:14,160 Speaker 7: in the heavyweight division. Here Ian Arlovsky coming off a 1221 00:55:14,280 --> 00:55:17,399 Speaker 7: second round loss to Tom aspinall in February. No shame 1222 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,320 Speaker 7: in that Sherman was to face Parker Porter. Instead, he 1223 00:55:20,400 --> 00:55:23,200 Speaker 7: gets the big name Arlovsky, who steps up here. Sherman 1224 00:55:23,239 --> 00:55:25,040 Speaker 7: has won his last four, Ian, what do you think 1225 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:26,560 Speaker 7: about this one? Arlovsky favorite? 1226 00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, I see why Rolovsky is favored. However, Sherman's 1227 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:33,680 Speaker 2: his demeanor and his aggression, I think is what always 1228 00:55:33,719 --> 00:55:36,000 Speaker 2: plays against Arlovsky. When you back Oarlosky up and you 1229 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,359 Speaker 2: hit him on the chin, he goes down. Sherman's gonna 1230 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:40,160 Speaker 2: be the taller guy, and I kind of like him. 1231 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:43,200 Speaker 2: Value wise, Arlowski should put him on his back and 1232 00:55:43,280 --> 00:55:45,720 Speaker 2: not take that chance. But I don't see Arlovsky wrestling 1233 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 2: anytime soon, so I'm gonna take a I'm gonna give 1234 00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 2: Kenny an opportunity here to maybe score some points or 1235 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:52,320 Speaker 2: bury him further. So I'm gonna go with Chase Sherman. 1236 00:55:52,800 --> 00:55:55,600 Speaker 7: All Right, Ian Parker likes the Vanilla Gorilla Chase Sherman, 1237 00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 7: Andre Arlovsky UFC appearance number thirty five, and he has 1238 00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:01,800 Speaker 7: been the far more active fighter. Chase Sherman won that 1239 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:04,839 Speaker 7: UFC return last year to begin his second UFC stint, 1240 00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:08,120 Speaker 7: but it was UFC two forty nine last May. Arlobsky 1241 00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,319 Speaker 7: continues to make the walk, continues to be cornered by 1242 00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,880 Speaker 7: Mike Brown, continues to be competitive. He's won two of 1243 00:56:12,960 --> 00:56:15,040 Speaker 7: three Ken Flow ar Loobsky the favorite, Sherman the dog. 1244 00:56:15,560 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 9: Who do you like? 1245 00:56:17,680 --> 00:56:17,919 Speaker 10: Listen? 1246 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 8: I like Arlosky here, you know, I do think that 1247 00:56:21,120 --> 00:56:24,080 Speaker 8: Chase Sherman is not going to be an easy fight 1248 00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:26,360 Speaker 8: for him. I think he's very dangerous. He could certainly 1249 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 8: get a knockout against someone like Arlovsky. But I do 1250 00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:32,280 Speaker 8: think that Arlosky has has looked better with this forwork. 1251 00:56:32,360 --> 00:56:35,840 Speaker 8: He's been more defensive and responsible, and sometimes if you 1252 00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:38,400 Speaker 8: go Chase in a little bit too hard against Arlosky, 1253 00:56:38,480 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 8: he can surprise you. 1254 00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:41,400 Speaker 10: I like Arlosky here. 1255 00:56:41,719 --> 00:56:43,759 Speaker 7: Did we decide if there was a double digit win 1256 00:56:43,840 --> 00:56:45,680 Speaker 7: in the main event challenge that Ken Flow gets like 1257 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,359 Speaker 7: a tattoo? We didn't agree on that, right. 1258 00:56:47,719 --> 00:56:49,640 Speaker 2: That happened last year, so I guess he's getting a 1259 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 2: duck tattooed right on. 1260 00:56:50,920 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 7: The right dut tattoo. There's not a bit, there's not 1261 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,440 Speaker 7: a bitcoin in the world for him to get a 1262 00:56:57,480 --> 00:56:58,520 Speaker 7: fucking duck tattoo. 1263 00:56:58,640 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 2: You're getting game brand. He's got a fucking duck. 1264 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 7: Oh my gosh, how long have you been in the 1265 00:57:02,760 --> 00:57:04,880 Speaker 7: control room here in that game bred noise? All Right, 1266 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:08,359 Speaker 7: Komaine event. I'm really curious to see where you guys 1267 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,720 Speaker 7: fall on this because the price is close. Jeremy Stevens 1268 00:57:10,800 --> 00:57:13,960 Speaker 7: minus one forty Dracar Close plus one twenty will need 1269 00:57:14,000 --> 00:57:16,160 Speaker 7: the round in the method of victory. Ken Flow is 1270 00:57:16,160 --> 00:57:17,880 Speaker 7: gonna lead on the main event, so Ian will have 1271 00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 7: you lead on the Komine event. First, a little trivia. 1272 00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:23,360 Speaker 7: How many fights has Jeremy Stevens had at featherweight since 1273 00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 7: he moved up from lightweight in twenty thirteen eight eighteen. 1274 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:35,320 Speaker 7: Featherweight appears for Jeremy Stevens only misweight twice Ian, but 1275 00:57:35,480 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 7: he did so for the Cater fight last year. Perhaps 1276 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:40,120 Speaker 7: that was part of the impetus for moving back up. 1277 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,880 Speaker 7: But now at one fifty five, he faces Drakar Close. 1278 00:57:42,960 --> 00:57:45,640 Speaker 7: He had won three in a row before Benny Daryus 1279 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,600 Speaker 7: rallied epically on him. Close then had a fight maybe 1280 00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:51,440 Speaker 7: against Louis Payana. I believe go Away because of COVID nineteen, 1281 00:57:51,800 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 7: huge spot for both guys, Stevens in Close, Stevens the favorite, 1282 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,160 Speaker 7: close to the underdogy and who do you have? 1283 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:58,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna go with Jakar Close here. I think 1284 00:57:58,920 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 2: stylistically he actually has a very good wrestling background, and 1285 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,040 Speaker 2: I just don't know how much more damage Stevens can 1286 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 2: really take. And we know Close can can throw and 1287 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,200 Speaker 2: he can hit hard, as long as he doesn't do 1288 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 2: what he did with Neil dari Uschan just brawl. There's 1289 00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 2: a blueprint in a method of victory here as opposed 1290 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:15,040 Speaker 2: to Stevens, who I think has to get the knockout 1291 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,000 Speaker 2: and I think that was the first time Close was 1292 00:58:17,040 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 2: ever knocked out in that Dariusch fight. So I'm gonna 1293 00:58:19,840 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 2: go with the wrestling situation plus the underdog money, So 1294 00:58:22,040 --> 00:58:24,520 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with your car Close Ken Flow. 1295 00:58:24,560 --> 00:58:27,959 Speaker 7: Stevens four losses and a no contest spanning his last 1296 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 7: five So the last win for Jeremy Stevens came in 1297 00:58:30,240 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 7: a main event against Josh Emmitt. That was February of 1298 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 7: twenty eighteen. So it's been a rough go of it 1299 00:58:35,000 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 7: of late for Jeremy Stevens, who makes his thirty fourth 1300 00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 7: UFC appearance, pretty remarkable that can flow right fighting Dean 1301 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:42,920 Speaker 7: Thomas in like two thousand and seven, Stevens said, only 1302 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:45,200 Speaker 7: you know, we talk about Jim Miller thirty seven UFC fights, 1303 00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:47,160 Speaker 7: and here this weekend we got our Loovsky thirty five, 1304 00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:50,600 Speaker 7: Stevens thirty four. Who do you like in the komain Kenny? 1305 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, Stevens has been fighting forever, man, This guy kid's 1306 00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 8: been fighting since he was a teenager, and I think 1307 00:58:55,400 --> 00:58:57,600 Speaker 8: he has fights all the way up to one seventy right. 1308 00:58:58,240 --> 00:58:58,880 Speaker 7: Quite possibly. 1309 00:58:58,920 --> 00:59:04,360 Speaker 8: I don't know if he does for yeah, Jev maybe Uh. Anyways, Uh, Stevens, 1310 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:06,880 Speaker 8: you know, I definitely has his back up against the 1311 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,680 Speaker 8: wall here. But I do think he's fighting a guy 1312 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 8: in Jakar Close will who will engage him on the 1313 00:59:12,240 --> 00:59:14,600 Speaker 8: feet a little bit. Yes, Dakar Close does come from 1314 00:59:14,640 --> 00:59:17,520 Speaker 8: that wrestling background, and he should he should certainly use 1315 00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:20,920 Speaker 8: that against Jeremy Stevens. But Stevens isn't exactly an easy 1316 00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:25,600 Speaker 8: guy to take down. And I think Stevens has a 1317 00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,760 Speaker 8: tremendous amount of power that if Jakar Close is not 1318 00:59:28,840 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 8: defensively responsible. I think he'll be sleeping and uh, you know, 1319 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:36,040 Speaker 8: as we saw in his last fight against Daryush, he 1320 00:59:36,160 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 8: does get sloppy. Do not want to get sloppy against 1321 00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 8: someone like Stevens. I like Stevens here. Let's go, let's 1322 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:47,120 Speaker 8: go second round. Tko wow. 1323 00:59:47,320 --> 00:59:50,800 Speaker 7: I love that two guys are are disagreeing a little bit. Today. 1324 00:59:50,840 --> 00:59:52,960 Speaker 7: Doesn't always happen all right, main event, ken Flow, you 1325 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,160 Speaker 7: can lead us off here. It is Robert Whitaker, montus 1326 00:59:55,160 --> 00:59:58,160 Speaker 7: two fifty five Calvin GASLM plus two point fifteen. I 1327 00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:00,280 Speaker 7: set up some of the history in this matchup, Canny. 1328 01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:03,320 Speaker 7: I'm so thankful, even if undisputed gold is not on 1329 01:00:03,400 --> 01:00:06,480 Speaker 7: the line, that this fight itself came around again. Uh, 1330 01:00:06,600 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 7: what do you think about Gastollum's chances here in the 1331 01:00:08,880 --> 01:00:10,280 Speaker 7: role of underdog against Whittaker. 1332 01:00:10,920 --> 01:00:11,720 Speaker 10: Intriguing fight. 1333 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 8: You know, I think Kevin Kelvin Gastolm is one of 1334 01:00:14,720 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 8: the toughest guys out there, tremendous chin. 1335 01:00:17,800 --> 01:00:19,640 Speaker 10: He is solid everywhere. 1336 01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:22,600 Speaker 8: I thought he did a great job in his last 1337 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:26,240 Speaker 8: fight and and squeezing out the win. I think that 1338 01:00:26,640 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 8: this fight here is gonna be tough against Whittaker. Whittaker 1339 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:33,880 Speaker 8: is really difficult to take down. I think Whittaker is 1340 01:00:33,920 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 8: going to have a speed advantage here as well. You know, 1341 01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:40,920 Speaker 8: I think he is obviously very comfortable, uh, you know, 1342 01:00:41,080 --> 01:00:43,040 Speaker 8: in this role and being in a main event. At 1343 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,440 Speaker 8: this point, He's been in some big fights. I think 1344 01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:47,920 Speaker 8: he realizes that if he wins this fight, he can 1345 01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 8: get that rematch against at Asania. 1346 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:50,920 Speaker 7: Uh And. 1347 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, I like Whittaker here. I think he wins by decision. 1348 01:00:57,200 --> 01:00:59,120 Speaker 8: I don't think it's gonna be an easy fight, but 1349 01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 8: I do think wher gets the w here against a 1350 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 8: very tough Kelvin Gastolon all. 1351 01:01:03,560 --> 01:01:05,320 Speaker 7: Right, ken Thall on the favorite side in the main event. 1352 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:05,600 Speaker 12: Ian. 1353 01:01:05,680 --> 01:01:09,040 Speaker 7: So, Whittaker's won two in a row eleven of twelve overall, 1354 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 7: two straight since the championship lost to Adasanya, and those 1355 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 7: wins came over Jared Knnaneer and Darren Till. Interestingly enough, 1356 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:19,120 Speaker 7: the two guys that Atasanya continues to talk about when 1357 01:01:19,160 --> 01:01:21,360 Speaker 7: it comes to well, he's not talking about Cannoneer anymore, 1358 01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,320 Speaker 7: but those are the guys that the champion has talked 1359 01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 7: about for possible title defenses, and Whittaker has wins over 1360 01:01:27,080 --> 01:01:30,760 Speaker 7: both of those guys. This is a definite title eliminator, right. 1361 01:01:30,800 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 7: I mean, Adasanya has fought all these guys, Vittori, Brunson, Whittaker, Gastolo, 1362 01:01:36,400 --> 01:01:38,040 Speaker 7: and the winner of this one could very well have 1363 01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 7: the inside track on Vittori or Brunson or anybody else 1364 01:01:42,440 --> 01:01:45,760 Speaker 7: Ian Parker, Gastolo or Whittaker in the main event. 1365 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,360 Speaker 2: I like Bobby Knuckles here and the no question about it. 1366 01:01:50,240 --> 01:01:50,360 Speaker 9: You know. 1367 01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:52,960 Speaker 2: I just think with Kelvin his last fight against Ian 1368 01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:54,880 Speaker 2: heinis you know, he went back to his wrestling, but 1369 01:01:54,920 --> 01:01:58,080 Speaker 2: Whittaker's takedown defense is just is too good and he's 1370 01:01:58,160 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 2: just better everywhere, you know, And it's not a knock 1371 01:01:59,880 --> 01:02:01,600 Speaker 2: on Kelvin. I think where they were a few years ago, 1372 01:02:01,640 --> 01:02:04,000 Speaker 2: I might have actually leaned towards Kelvin because at the time, 1373 01:02:04,320 --> 01:02:07,440 Speaker 2: the way he was setting up his left hand into takedowns, 1374 01:02:07,920 --> 01:02:11,680 Speaker 2: he wasn't telegraphing anything, so his wrestling was dominant. Then 1375 01:02:11,720 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 2: he got comfortable and he's lost. So I also don't 1376 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:17,080 Speaker 2: know where his mindset is. Ian heinisch fit. I think 1377 01:02:17,200 --> 01:02:19,520 Speaker 2: he kept that a little bit closer than he had to. 1378 01:02:19,720 --> 01:02:23,080 Speaker 2: He should have won, and that's not a knock on heinish, 1379 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:24,800 Speaker 2: He's tough. Just I feel like the difference in skill 1380 01:02:24,880 --> 01:02:26,960 Speaker 2: level and experience should have really favored Kelvin a lot 1381 01:02:27,040 --> 01:02:28,760 Speaker 2: more than it did. I just think Whittaker is in 1382 01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 2: a different mental space too. I think we know where 1383 01:02:30,640 --> 01:02:33,200 Speaker 2: he's at. He's a five round main event title fighter, 1384 01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 2: no matter how you skin that cat. As much as 1385 01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:39,400 Speaker 2: Atosania maybe not doesn't want rematches, Whittaker is the guy, 1386 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 2: you know, and I think he gets by. I do 1387 01:02:41,040 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 2: agree with Kenny on the decision standpoint. Kelvin's tough to finish. 1388 01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:46,320 Speaker 2: You know, Whittaker's not known for his submission, so I 1389 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,000 Speaker 2: don't see any heel hooks her toe holds there like 1390 01:02:48,080 --> 01:02:51,120 Speaker 2: what Jack did, unless the cardio plays a factor in 1391 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 2: a round four. But the way Whittaker fought till makes 1392 01:02:54,320 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 2: me feel like he's just trying to also stay healthy 1393 01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:59,240 Speaker 2: and win, and he knows that all he's got to 1394 01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:01,360 Speaker 2: do is get to win. So I like Robert Whitaker 1395 01:03:01,400 --> 01:03:02,240 Speaker 2: my decision as well. 1396 01:03:02,560 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 7: I gotta think the odds were closer when these two 1397 01:03:04,600 --> 01:03:08,760 Speaker 7: were booked to fight in twenty nineteen. Yeah, all right, 1398 01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 7: quick picks on the way out. We'll get both of 1399 01:03:11,040 --> 01:03:13,600 Speaker 7: these from you. Ian main card opener at featherweight Bill 1400 01:03:13,680 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 7: Algio versus Hickardo Homos, Who do you have there?
