George Santos want a 4 00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:11,480 Speaker 1: seat in Congress by lying to voters, but is that 5 00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:14,440 Speaker 1: a crime? And Kanye West made it clear he hates 6 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,360 Speaker 1: Jews in England, he'd go to jail for that.

No no citrus on fight night 33 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,319 Speaker 6: for commentators out there. But it is good to be 34 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 6: back with everybody. Uh, what have you been doing? Even 35 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 6: shooting guns, doing all sorts of tactical training, just becoming 36 00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 6: like a more lethal human weapon in your spare time. 37 00:01:51,160 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 6: Is that what you've been doing basically? 38 00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:54,760 Speaker 2: Well, well, the thing is I'm getting older, all right, 39 00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,920 Speaker 2: so so my back isn't as good as it used 40 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 2: to be. And I I just enjoyed doing that stuff. 41 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 2: Like I get obsessed with certain things and then when 42 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 2: I get into it, like I need to be doing 43 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: it or thinking about it all the time. So like 44 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:11,239 Speaker 2: I I'm trying to get better learning a lot and 45 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 2: uh and having some fun. I shout out to my guy, 46 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:18,760 Speaker 2: Scott Jolensky, the Jedi read Dot expert. 47 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 6: He was an amazing coach. So learned a lot last week. Yeah, 48 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 6: good stuff. Speaking of your age in terms of competitive 49 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 6: jiu jitsu, you got that little gym in your house 50 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 6: so to speak. Right now with the padded walls and 51 00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,520 Speaker 6: everything else. Those you know jones in to see you 52 00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 6: back on the competitive jiu jitsu circuit. They should not 53 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 6: hold their breath. Is that the deal? Yeah? 54 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 2: So you know, my back's been bad for a while, 55 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 2: but I have there's no rhyme or reason of what 56 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,360 Speaker 2: sets it off. Like I haven't been able to train 57 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,280 Speaker 2: more than two or three times a week in a 58 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,399 Speaker 2: long time. Dude, Like my I don't get it. I'll 59 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: do all the things I'm supposed to be doing and 60 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: my back just like turns to garbage. So got to 61 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,839 Speaker 2: figure someuth out. I'm thinking about maybe some stem cell 62 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,640 Speaker 2: or something for my back. Yeah, and my hip and 63 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,440 Speaker 2: my knee and something else. But anyways, yeah, I'm deteriorating, John. 64 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,400 Speaker 2: That's that's yeah, that's the short story. 65 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, No, Buffer said to me a couple of weeks ago. 66 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 6: He's like, hey man, you know every decision you make 67 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 6: right now you're going to pay for in twenty years. 68 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 6: And I'm like, whoa, bro, I'm just trying to go 69 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 6: for a fucking walk in Singapore before the pay per view, 70 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 6: you know. But obviously Buff takes great care of himself. 71 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:26,640 Speaker 6: You know. I think for a lot of us, we 72 00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 6: work hard, we play hard, right Uh, And I guess 73 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:30,240 Speaker 6: I should just leave it at that. Uh. 74 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 2: Bruce still doing splits, John, I think, oh. 75 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 6: All sorts of stuff. I mean, you should see who's 76 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 6: warm up before he announces. 77 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 2: He's a beast. 78 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:43,320 Speaker 6: Just stay out of his range. You know, his management 79 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,119 Speaker 6: isn't so good. With his kicks and his his pre fight, 80 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 6: He'll slap. 81 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: You in the face with his foot. There's no question 82 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:49,520 Speaker 2: of it. 83 00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 6: There's no doubt about it. If I was an athlete 84 00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 6: and I didn't want to give him a fist pump, 85 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 6: I'd probably just give him like the token fist pump. 86 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 6: Get this lunatic out of my face. He's screaming. Fan's 87 00:03:58,600 --> 00:04:01,280 Speaker 6: coming out of his neck and can. Podcast Today brought 88 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 6: to you in part by UFC Fight Pass.

It was UFC 96 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,919 Speaker 6: Fight Night Dosanjos versus physive at the old Ufcapex. Always 97 00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:28,800 Speaker 6: interesting when you go from bells and whistles at T 98 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 6: Mobile Arena thirty foot octagone back to the twenty five 99 00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 6: footer at the UFC Apex. Really good main event, Really 100 00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 6: good performance for Rafael Phazebe gets the knockout of Hafayel 101 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 6: Dosanos at eighteen seconds of round five. It came after 102 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 6: RDA had a particularly strong round four, after Physibe really 103 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 6: had controlled most of the action up until that point. 104 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 6: Plus one fifty for those who had Phazev by knockout, 105 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 6: TKO or DQ. Your thoughts on the lightweight main event 106 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 6: just a few short hours ago, My man. 107 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,760 Speaker 2: We know a lot more about Rafael Physivee than we 108 00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 2: did before. You know, this was the fight that I 109 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 2: was kind of most looking forward to. To see what's 110 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: this guy all about? You know, is he the real deal? 111 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,919 Speaker 2: And beating someone like a or haf Hal Dozandros sorry, 112 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 2: you know it certainly answers that question for me. And 113 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 2: I think dos Angos obviously has been in a lot 114 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 2: of fights. He's got some wear and tear, perhaps not 115 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,480 Speaker 2: as fast or doesn't have the reaction time that he 116 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 2: used to. I see slight deterioration in that regard, but 117 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,719 Speaker 2: he's still a phenomenal fighter who was dangerous in a 118 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 2: lot of different ways. And the fact that physive was 119 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: able to stop the majority of those takedowns find a 120 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:45,919 Speaker 2: way to not get positionally dominated on the ground. The 121 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 2: fact that he was outstriking dos Angels for the majority 122 00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 2: of that fight and I thought actually fought smarter than 123 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,480 Speaker 2: Dosanos as well, says a lot about. 124 00:05:56,360 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 6: His potential trajectory in the UFC. 125 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 2: I think he's a guy that I would, you know, 126 00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: feel pretty good about getting behind. And I think that 127 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 2: he's a guy that is going to continue to rise 128 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 2: it and beat a lot of guys in that very 129 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,200 Speaker 2: difficult division of the UFC. 130 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 6: Seemed like the narrative on broadcast at the beginning of 131 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 6: the fifth round was of an exhausted physive and a 132 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,400 Speaker 6: fresher Hafayel Dosanjos, and I just have to say about 133 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:25,920 Speaker 6: our da I'm not going to get into the whole 134 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 6: resting heart rate stuff, but he seemed fresh as a 135 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 6: daisy to begin round five despite just absorbing a lot 136 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 6: of kicks, a lot to the body. I just marvel 137 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 6: at his toughness and his ability to sort of sustain 138 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 6: at this stage of what I believe is a Hall 139 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,440 Speaker 6: of Fame career. And you know, he was in the 140 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 6: fight going into the fifth round. Obviously he has a 141 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:48,040 Speaker 6: wealth of five round experience. This was his eleventh UFC 142 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 6: main event. But Rafayel Phazibe obviously was not cooked. Obviously 143 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:53,919 Speaker 6: he was urgent at the beginning of round five, and 144 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,279 Speaker 6: he went for it. I did think it was kind 145 00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 6: of an early stoppage, my man, Mark Smith, you know, 146 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 6: will let Chase Sherman bractically kill Jared Vandera earlier in 147 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 6: the night. You know, Mark, I think you're outstanding if 148 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 6: you are listening, but you know, letting the heavyweights, you know, 149 00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 6: really go at it. And then I thought Rafael Dosanjos 150 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,040 Speaker 6: maybe deserved to beat her, so more I guess it's 151 00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:16,320 Speaker 6: neither here nor there. I don't know. I have a 152 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 6: lot of respect for our DA and and healthy respect 153 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,480 Speaker 6: for for Rafael Phasibe. Of course, with a huge win, 154 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 6: biggest of his career. 155 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:26,000 Speaker 2: I think that's fair. I would have liked to see, uh, 156 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: you know, Mark allow Rda to try to get back 157 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:30,120 Speaker 2: into it. 158 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 6: I think that he was certainly hurt. 159 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 2: It was a beautiful shot, a left hook that went 160 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:37,640 Speaker 2: up and over that lead that lead right hand of 161 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 2: dos Angels to salth paw, And it was a shot 162 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 2: that Physique was actually kind of landing throughout that fight intermittently, 163 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 2: and that one ultimately just crushed dos Angos. And yeah, 164 00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:52,880 Speaker 2: I don't think he was completely out. He was trying 165 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 2: to fight back, he was trying to do stuff. It 166 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 2: was a little bit early for me, but Physique had 167 00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 2: him in trouble absolutely. But you know, to go back 168 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 2: to your point about the Chase Sherman bendera fight, Yeah, 169 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 2: I mean he certainly had a lot of leeway of that. 170 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 2: And those are heavyweights that are landing devastating shots. These 171 00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 2: are just lightweights. But so I would have liked to 172 00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:16,679 Speaker 2: see some consistency there as well. 173 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 6: I mean it's like eve Levine. If you have seen 174 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 6: seventy three with Ken Flow and Alvin Robinson, they're on 175 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 6: the ground for two seconds.

So my response to 276 00:12:58,120 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 6: to the New York Post was the Ray Longo minute 277 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 6: has been a part of the Anak and Florian podcast 278 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 6: since episode one when we launched the show in April 279 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 6: of twenty fifteen. He has probably been a part of 280 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:12,160 Speaker 6: three hundred and fifty of our first three hundred and 281 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:14,560 Speaker 6: fifty five episodes. He's not going anywhere. 282 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 4: It's not nice. 283 00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:18,839 Speaker 6: Was that the text? Yeah? 284 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 2: That's so. 285 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:26,960 Speaker 4: I guess that guy never listened to the podcast once. Yeah, yeah, yeah. 286 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 6: I think part of it was because last week, circumstantially 287 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 6: you weren't on. And as long as people associate you 288 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 6: with this show. 289 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,320 Speaker 7: And trust me, I want it to be on. 290 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 6: So all right, So we have a lot to get 291 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 6: to al Jamaine Sterling and TJ. Dillashaw I believe have 292 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 6: a date. Is that accurate? 293 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 7: That would be inaccurate as far as I know, what's 294 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 7: the date? 295 00:13:54,679 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 6: Well, I thought I heard a rumbling or a rumor 296 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 6: that maybe two months from now September Paper Review but uh, 297 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:02,760 Speaker 6: I guess that's uh. 298 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 7: Well, there's definitely nothing signed. I could I could promise 299 00:14:05,280 --> 00:14:07,280 Speaker 7: you that, but I haven't. I haven't talked out Joe 300 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 7: in a week. 301 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:11,360 Speaker 6: So all right, back on the Contender series. 302 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:15,280 Speaker 7: I saw the Zooka back on the Contended series, Charlie 303 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 7: Campbell right after him, and then Nazine is right after him, 304 00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 7: So we got three guys on the Contended series. I 305 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 7: think back to back to back the first three weeks. 306 00:14:25,400 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 6: So not a lot of local flavor on this Long 307 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 6: Island fight. Probably why the New York Post is doing 308 00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:34,160 Speaker 6: a feature on the Boston guy, you know, like, well, 309 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 6: fucking Boston guy getting that New York ink you like that. 310 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 7: I guess, I guess, yeah, right, they knew that your 311 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 7: dad was from Seafood. 312 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:47,240 Speaker 4: I think that's that was impatus. I'll use your word. 313 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:49,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, none of the stuff I said about Boston made it. 314 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 6: Man like you you want to file a Red Sox fan, 315 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,640 Speaker 6: you know, take up you know? So uh yeah, but 316 00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,720 Speaker 6: it is interesting there isn't a ton of local flavor. 317 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,280 Speaker 6: Billy Q no longer on the fight card. Shane Burgos 318 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:05,200 Speaker 6: is a local New Yorker, but not necessarily to that area. 319 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 6: All right, let's get back to Physibe and Dosanjos if 320 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 6: we could. You know, Dosos has a huge fan in me. 321 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 6: Anybody who's listening to this show knows that. But Rafael 322 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 6: Phazige is a real problem. Like I wouldn't want to 323 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 6: get kicked by that guy one time, not one time, 324 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 6: you know. And he just kicked so hard, he kicked 325 00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 6: so fast. 326 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:24,640 Speaker 2: Uh. 327 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,200 Speaker 6: I think he accrued a lot of valuable experience this 328 00:15:27,320 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 6: night against a former works. Yes, and you know a 329 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 6: lot of big fights on the horizon, maybe gaege X 330 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:32,600 Speaker 6: we'll see. 331 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean I thought he did. 332 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 7: The best thing I think he did is can serve 333 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 7: his energy better? 334 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 4: You know, he didn't. 335 00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 7: I think that's why he made it to the fifth 336 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,040 Speaker 7: round because the Bobby Green fight he started to guess 337 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 7: at I think in a little bit in the third. 338 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 7: But he did a way better job and like more technical, 339 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 7: less explosions, which I think that's what's going to kill 340 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 7: him when he starts really exploding over and over again. 341 00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 7: So I was really impressed with that close fight. And 342 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,600 Speaker 7: I don't know, so did anybody know what the cards 343 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 7: were going into the fifth round? 344 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 6: Do we get that Cody will chase that I believe 345 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,160 Speaker 6: I had one, two, and three for Phazeve and then 346 00:16:09,280 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 6: round four for dos Angos. Ken Flonie thoughts on the cards. 347 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty much how I had it. I think 348 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 2: I forget if it was round three or two. That 349 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 2: was close in my mind, but yeah, I had physique 350 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 2: winning the first three. So does Andrews had some work 351 00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 2: to do for sure? 352 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, so this kind of closes the championship book on 353 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 6: dos Angos. You know, he did have some momentum, looked 354 00:16:30,720 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 6: really good in the Moikano fight, even though there were 355 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 6: some circumstances surrounding that main event. But for dos Angos 356 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 6: at this point, you know, not that he won't fight again, 357 00:16:39,160 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 6: but I think in a lot of respects, I think 358 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:44,440 Speaker 6: over thirty UFC fights, maybe over twenty UFC wins, this 359 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 6: kind of closes the book on his championship legacy. But 360 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 6: Fazeve wants gaiche What do you guys think about that? 361 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,200 Speaker 6: And do you think that will be next? I mean, 362 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:56,120 Speaker 6: I think it's a good time to call out Gaichee 363 00:16:56,160 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 6: because you know, Gaichie's had some championship opportunities hasn't delivered. 364 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,360 Speaker 6: I think that makes a lot of sense. That might 365 00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:04,879 Speaker 6: be the next the next fight for PHYSIV. Ray, what 366 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 6: do you think about Phaziv and Gaichie locking up? 367 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 7: I mean, come on, that's an exciting fight. I want 368 00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 7: to watch it, you know. Definitely a fight that's not 369 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 7: going five rounds, so it's going to be exciting. So yeah, 370 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 7: I think that's a that's a great fight, and I 371 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 7: think Gachi's always up for, you know, for the challenge. Look, 372 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 7: I think that the thing good for PHYSIV is that 373 00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:29,760 Speaker 7: these guys are getting older, and a lot of stuff 374 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 7: comes with getting older, you know, even like the that 375 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 7: you know, that that desire to really win, you know, 376 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,280 Speaker 7: maybe just to pick up a paycheck. I don't know, 377 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 7: but even like Dosano, see it was it was a 378 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 7: good fight, it was competitive, but the guy is thirty seven. 379 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 2: It's going to be hard to climb your way back 380 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 2: at that weight. 381 00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 7: You know, at that age, I think and uh, I 382 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,479 Speaker 7: think a younger r DA probably wins that fight, you know, 383 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 7: but you know, how many what was his layoff on 384 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 7: this too? 385 00:17:57,880 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 4: He was out for. 386 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 6: Not too long, not too long. I honestly, I feel 387 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 6: like in a thirty footer dos Aos at this stage 388 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 6: of his career would be a little bit more exposed. 389 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 6: I think he uses that twenty five footer well. Certainly 390 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 6: was able to run a lot of clock in the 391 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 6: clinch against Paul Felder, and I even think athletically like 392 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 6: his entries for takedowns were pretty good, but Phazeve was 393 00:18:20,119 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 6: more than up for that challenge. I just think stylistically 394 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,360 Speaker 6: ken flow at this stage of dosan Jos's career, even 395 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 6: though he does kick, and I just think a lot 396 00:18:28,920 --> 00:18:31,199 Speaker 6: of it is just a war of attrition and trying to, 397 00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:35,040 Speaker 6: you know, just clinch and take down, and that's kind 398 00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 6: of what his game is, right yeah, you know, well. 399 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I think he was making a few mistakes 400 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 2: in the clinch there. He was starting to figure out, 401 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,440 Speaker 2: Like in round four he was looking way better. The 402 00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 2: way he was finishing and the way he was adjusting 403 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 2: to try to get Phazivee on the mat, I thought 404 00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:52,719 Speaker 2: was a lot better. And I also think he was 405 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 2: forcing a lot of the clinches. Like dos Angos when 406 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,359 Speaker 2: he strikes was doing fine, he was panicking. He was 407 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:02,200 Speaker 2: a little panicky out there, like he had to rush 408 00:19:02,200 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 2: to the clinch all the time, So it seemed like, 409 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:06,520 Speaker 2: I don't know, he could have fought a little bit 410 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,399 Speaker 2: smarter and better. But you know, Physie's a problem. And 411 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 2: I think that's an interesting call out and a smart 412 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 2: call out against Geichie who's been through how many wars now? 413 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, and you. 414 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 2: Know physive Physivee's got the speed advantage. I think so 415 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:24,440 Speaker 2: Danny Rubes, all right, Rubinstein, is he still uh? 416 00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 6: Is he still managing? 417 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:29,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, yeah, smart, smart game plan as far as 418 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 2: taking the right fights at the right time. 419 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,479 Speaker 6: I love that call out. That's that's good stuff. 420 00:19:34,920 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. 421 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 2: Not that isn't dangerous. 422 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,000 Speaker 6: Geegee is still a very dangerous man. That's a great fight. 423 00:19:40,040 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 6: But you beat someone like Gaichi, people people pay attention. 424 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, and I tell you, Tenny, you know that, uh, 425 00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 7: and beat him in like a highlight reel fashion, which 426 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:49,240 Speaker 7: is possibility. 427 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 2: Uh. 428 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:53,040 Speaker 7: But you know, as these guys get older, it comes 429 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 7: with a lot of injuries they gotta deal with. They 430 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 7: got to change up their game plans. They're just not 431 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 7: the guys they were five years ago. I don't give 432 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:03,800 Speaker 7: his shit what anybody said. It's almost impossible, you know. 433 00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 2: What I mean? 434 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 7: Because I'm with Kenny Rdia looked like he was having 435 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 7: way more success standing up the straight left, was landing 436 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 7: all the time, like basically when he threw it. That's 437 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:16,919 Speaker 7: why I say I think a younger, more aggressive RDA 438 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 7: probably wins that fight, you. 439 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:20,880 Speaker 2: Know, with all the other tools that he has. 440 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:25,359 Speaker 7: But I just think it's it just sucks, man, Like 441 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:27,879 Speaker 7: I just I've seen it so many times, and you know, 442 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,040 Speaker 7: nobody really knows what's going on. But you know, it's 443 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,679 Speaker 7: hard getting a young guy to a fight uninjured, you 444 00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:35,119 Speaker 7: know what I mean. 445 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 6: It's just is this is just. 446 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 7: A tough, tough sport, and you know there's going to 447 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 7: be certain guys that their injuries are going to be 448 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 7: less and I think those are the guys that are 449 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 7: going to shine through. But you know, I thought I 450 00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 7: agree with Kenny. I thought he was having way more success. 451 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 7: I think just based on like the Bobby Green fight, 452 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 7: I would have made him expend energy in. 453 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 4: That realm and then went to the takedown. 454 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 7: Gonna have to endure, right, you got to get through 455 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 7: a little bit of you know, tenseness there with the striking, 456 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:08,959 Speaker 7: but that that was that would have been my approach. 457 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 7: We're gonna push him on at the first two and 458 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,239 Speaker 7: then we're gonna take him down and beat him up. 459 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,160 Speaker 7: You know that I. 460 00:21:14,119 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 2: Would have tried that, but you know, and I thought 461 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 2: he looked like he was doing fine. I agree absolutely 462 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 2: with Ray, and I think for get Chee, you know, 463 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 2: to go back to Geechee. I don't know if Gaechee 464 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,000 Speaker 2: takes that fight because you know, I don't know how 465 00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 2: much he has to gain. I think there's guys with 466 00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:35,800 Speaker 2: bigger names that are as dangerous or less dangerous that 467 00:21:35,840 --> 00:21:38,520 Speaker 2: he could take on. He's got a lot to lose 468 00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:40,119 Speaker 2: in that fight. And because he's got a lot to 469 00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,680 Speaker 2: gain if that fight happened. So it's it's gonna take 470 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:47,240 Speaker 2: some negotiation for sure to make that fight happen. But 471 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 2: I like to call out, you know, no to fight. 472 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:51,520 Speaker 7: I'd like to see I'd like to see him go 473 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 7: up against that guy Gamra. 474 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:54,320 Speaker 2: But who's the guy at Florida. 475 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,520 Speaker 7: That's good to see because that's a guy with a 476 00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 7: guess thank from hell, and he could he's not stopping, 477 00:22:02,520 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 7: you know what I mean. You're gonna have to stop 478 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 7: him early or I think he just he'll he'll run 479 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 7: into the ground. That guy that that pace at him 480 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:16,680 Speaker 7: and uh Seroukian put on was was crazy, like crazy. 481 00:22:16,760 --> 00:22:19,000 Speaker 7: It was triple the pace a last night, you know, 482 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:20,720 Speaker 7: like I don't know who's holding up to that. 483 00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 6: So that's a camrock and wrestle boy. 484 00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, he can wrestle. That's a guy I'd like 485 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 7: to see. I'd love to see that. Good attitudes on 486 00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:31,120 Speaker 7: both guys. You know, they're both at the right time 487 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,680 Speaker 7: in their careers, you know, instead of picking a guy 488 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,280 Speaker 7: that's been around for a while, he's been in major fights. 489 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 8: You know. 490 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 7: Is I think sometimes you just lose that hunger, you 491 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 7: know what I mean. And whether you're saying it or 492 00:22:41,800 --> 00:22:45,520 Speaker 7: you're not saying it, I'm saying subconsciously. That's what happens 493 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:47,200 Speaker 7: a lot of times. You know, your brain is always 494 00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 7: going to say, look, I'm making another run. I could 495 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,879 Speaker 7: beat this guy, could beat that guy. But the reality 496 00:22:51,920 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 7: of it is you're not You're not the guy anymore, 497 00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:57,960 Speaker 7: you know. And uh, that's a fight I'd rather see 498 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 7: than the Gaichee fight. But the gaiche fight would be explosive. 499 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:06,040 Speaker 6: But yeah, the lightweights are pretty strategic too. I do 500 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 6: think a lot of them are trying to angle for 501 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 6: specific matchups and will hold out and uh more on 502 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 6: that in a moment, quickly want to get to the scorecards. 503 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 6: Derek Cleary had it thirty eight to thirty eight going 504 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 6: into that fifty Rogo just had it three to one 505 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 6: Raphael Bazi. So in terms of selectivity among contenders, right, so, 506 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 6: Sean Strickland thought Alex Padata an unranked guy. Now I 507 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,320 Speaker 6: don't know if Sean Strickland got a new contractor got 508 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,440 Speaker 6: more money to accept a fight against a wicked, dangerous 509 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,120 Speaker 6: guy who wasn't even ranked. But right now I believe 510 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 6: Balao Muhammad's rank maybe four or five in the world, 511 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 6: beat the Cente Luke who was also four or five 512 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,920 Speaker 6: in the world, and now is going to fight Sean Brady, 513 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 6: who in a lot of respects as the boogeyman at 514 00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 6: one hundred and seventy pounds, who seemingly nobody wants to fight. 515 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 6: I do think Balal and Brady stylistically have some similarities. 516 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,399 Speaker 6: And I don't know why Billal accepted that fight, you know, 517 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 6: maybe establishing some promotional goodwill, Maybe he got more money, 518 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 6: you know, maybe he just wants to prove, hey, I'll 519 00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 6: beat that guy whatever it takes, you know. But you know, 520 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 6: Blao was trying to angle for the Kamzat Chimaya fight. 521 00:24:10,760 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 6: Doesn't get it, and now get Sean Brady, who you 522 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 6: can argue is just as dangerous five or six spots 523 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:19,680 Speaker 6: below him. You know, I don't think Phyz after beating 524 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:23,439 Speaker 6: a former world champion like this, is gonna fight Mataw's Gamraan, 525 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 6: you know, no matter what the rankings say, I just 526 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,640 Speaker 6: don't see it, you know. But thankfully you have guys 527 00:24:27,720 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 6: like Balal and Strickland, you know, who are willing to 528 00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 6: take fights and sort of keep you know, the cycle movement. 529 00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 4: Uh, well, you don't think PHYSI will take the fight? 530 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 6: No, I don't. I don't think you call out somebody 531 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,720 Speaker 6: as high profile as Gaie Chee top eight needle mover 532 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:47,200 Speaker 6: in the entire company, and then except to fight against Gamrot, 533 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 6: whom many think lost to Saruka. I agree. I share 534 00:24:51,280 --> 00:24:54,879 Speaker 6: your your enthusiasm. I'm just saying, like, you know, like 535 00:24:55,359 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 6: you there are people in Bilaal's inner circle that are like, dude, 536 00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,800 Speaker 6: why are you fighting a guy five or six spots below. 537 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,640 Speaker 4: You know who's who's Bellow's manager? 538 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,160 Speaker 2: Do you know? Yeah? 539 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 6: I mean, but you know, like Cody's saying, Ron, I'm 540 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 6: gonna say. 541 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 7: You're not getting more money for the He's not getting 542 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,480 Speaker 7: more money for the Sure I would, I would bet 543 00:25:16,560 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 7: my life on it, But I don't know. I just 544 00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 7: think they know how to manipulate guys that want to fight, 545 00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 7: and they don't give his ship and bellows that guy 546 00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 7: he wants to fight, and. 547 00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:29,159 Speaker 4: They're gonna use that, you know, to their advantage. 548 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 2: Well, and you know there's a lot of guys like that, 549 00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 2: you know well. 550 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:37,639 Speaker 6: And I think beat Sean Brady, I mean, then you 551 00:25:37,800 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 6: might be able to really try to hold out for 552 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:43,879 Speaker 6: a championship opportunity, you know, I think. 553 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 2: Where where where is Brady? The only thing I would 554 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 2: say it'd be impressive because of the wind streak. But 555 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,480 Speaker 2: I don't think people are gonna be like he beat 556 00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,840 Speaker 2: Sean Brady, give him a title shot, I think anything else. 557 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 2: I think Bellall matches up well against Sean Brady than 558 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 2: he does against Chimayah. Chimaya is a problem, right for 559 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 2: anybody like Ballall likes to take people down. Uh he 560 00:26:08,640 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 2: uses a striking to get there. He's not taking down 561 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:14,640 Speaker 2: chimayav Okay like I love Blaya. That's a really tough 562 00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 2: matchup for him. He's gonna have to strike his way 563 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:21,439 Speaker 2: to win against Jamayav I think, and then against Brady. 564 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:24,240 Speaker 2: I think he does a lot of what Brady does, 565 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 2: maybe even better, you know, uh in some ways, maybe 566 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 2: not as clean with his submissions as Brady. Brady's much 567 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 2: a much more dangerous submission threat than Belall is. But 568 00:26:32,840 --> 00:26:36,000 Speaker 2: I think Bellall positionally and wrestling wise, will probably be 569 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: better than Brady, So I think it's a better match 570 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 2: for him. So momentum wise, consistency wise, I agree with you, John, 571 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 2: But I don't think Sean, that Sean Brady win is 572 00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 2: going to get fans in the UFC to be clamoring, 573 00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 2: you know, for a title shot for Bulall. Unfortunately. 574 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:54,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, I I one hundred percent agree with that. And 575 00:26:54,359 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 7: it looks Bela is the guy that want he's gonna fight. 576 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 7: You know, those are the guys, whether they like him 577 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,040 Speaker 7: or they don't like them, they're gonna use them to 578 00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 7: their advantage. They're gonna put him with with they'll probably 579 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 7: try to overmatch him because they probably I'm assuming they 580 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 7: don't like him that much, you know what I mean, 581 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 7: because they're not pushing them a lot to you know, 582 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 7: like what you say for a title shot. But yeah, 583 00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 7: I don't think the Brady fight's gonna move the needle 584 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 7: because I don't. I think Brady needs a couple of 585 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 7: more high profile fights, you know, to get his name 586 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 7: right up there. 587 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,320 Speaker 6: Yeah he's a great but he's not. 588 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 2: We know who he is, but I bet yeh. 589 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 7: I walk out of my house and I asked the 590 00:27:34,560 --> 00:27:37,200 Speaker 7: first twenty MMA fans who he is. I'm not sure 591 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:38,520 Speaker 7: they're gonna say. 592 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 2: Much, you know what I mean? 593 00:27:41,119 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Now. 594 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 6: And he's from the northeast, right in your backyard. 595 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 2: Not really, but it's not a thing on him. It's 596 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 2: like he is. 597 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:54,320 Speaker 7: Look, I love guys like that. They're great and you 598 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,600 Speaker 7: don't know that even there. Those are the guys I 599 00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 7: literally loved. They're not making an asshole out of themselves 600 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 7: eman calling people out. 601 00:28:01,520 --> 00:28:02,719 Speaker 2: It's a dangerous fight for him. 602 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 7: The guy's a grinder and he loves to fight, and 603 00:28:05,600 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 7: he's gonna go in there and fight that. We're just 604 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 7: talking marketing now, we're not talking reality. You know that's right, 605 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 7: I say, even with even with physique, marketing wise, what 606 00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 7: a fantastic call out, you know what I mean? Because 607 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 7: whatever Gaischee does really good. This guy is really good 608 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 7: at you know what I mean. They want to trade 609 00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:26,000 Speaker 7: league kicks. I'm sure, this guy's eating a thousand league kicks. 610 00:28:26,040 --> 00:28:27,760 Speaker 7: He's used to it, you know what I mean. 611 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 2: So yeah, and that and that's where like the business 612 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,639 Speaker 2: side of fighting is so crucial, right. It's like, you know, 613 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,879 Speaker 2: Cody's making some great calls. He's saying, you know, like 614 00:28:35,960 --> 00:28:38,400 Speaker 2: you'll get a physique who's gonna call out a Chandler 615 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 2: or a Ferguson, Guys that are at the end of 616 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 2: the still can fighters. 617 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 6: Big names, right but kind of near the end of 618 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 6: their career whatever. 619 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,640 Speaker 2: The guys that he's trying to target, which would give 620 00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,480 Speaker 2: him that jump and that height to get that championship 621 00:28:51,560 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 2: fight where Sean Brady great fighter. People in the know 622 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 2: know who Sean Brady is, but that's a tough out. 623 00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 2: But the general fan is a know And then that's why, 624 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 2: you know, I think Gilbert Burns doing the right thing 625 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,680 Speaker 2: by trying to get a fight with Mazvedal, another guy, 626 00:29:08,040 --> 00:29:09,880 Speaker 2: huge name, one of the biggest names in the UFC, 627 00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,600 Speaker 2: guy at the end of the career, at the end 628 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: of his career, where he can you know, get another 629 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 2: big win and put himself back into. 630 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,840 Speaker 6: You know, title contention. Yeah, I thought it's Muhammad would 631 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 6: have made a lot of sense, and also a shout 632 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,800 Speaker 6: out to Jack her Manson, by the way, who was 633 00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:25,560 Speaker 6: supposed to fight Darren till in a few weeks he's 634 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:28,680 Speaker 6: fighting the unranked Chris Curtis, and I believe her Manson's 635 00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 6: probably in the top seven. And we'll have more on 636 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 6: this with Brian Petrie. But Jack Hermanson Ken Flow, by 637 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 6: the way, open to betting favorite against Chris Curtis, and 638 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 6: immediately Chris Curtis went to like minus one fifty at least, 639 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,280 Speaker 6: wow where I place my bets. So maybe that's all 640 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,480 Speaker 6: big on Brian Petrie's action. I don't know, but it 641 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 6: is interesting when you think about, you know, certain guys 642 00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,880 Speaker 6: like Dominic Cruz who literally like they're not gonna fight 643 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 6: cheto Vera until he's ranked above him, Like they are 644 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,000 Speaker 6: not trying to fight backwards. And I do believe if 645 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,960 Speaker 6: you're bloud, it's like, all right, if I beat Vicente 646 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,360 Speaker 6: fucking luke A right in a rematch in a main event, 647 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 6: that opens the door for the Covingtons and the Chimayavs 648 00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 6: and the Gilbert Burns. And instead he's fighting a guy 649 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 6: five slots ranked below Gilbert Burns. So it tells me, yes, 650 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 6: he wants to keep the momentum going. The best way 651 00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 6: to stay relevant with the fan base is to stay 652 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 6: active and to fight. You know, you're telling me, maybe 653 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 6: he didn't get new money for the for the deal. 654 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,120 Speaker 6: Sean Brady is undefeated, But you're right. It's the avid 655 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 6: fans who really see the upside of it right. 656 00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 4: Right right now, without a doubt. 657 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 7: And I think it comes a point where it's always 658 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,480 Speaker 7: easier to fight up than fight behind you. 659 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 4: And I think that's where Phyziva is. 660 00:30:38,880 --> 00:30:41,480 Speaker 7: I think there's probably five fights behind him that would 661 00:30:41,520 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 7: be way worse for him than taking somebody. These you know, 662 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 7: these guys build up their name, but then all of 663 00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,520 Speaker 7: a sudden at thirty eight thirty seven, you know, it's 664 00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 7: a it's a. 665 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 2: Different ballgame, you know. 666 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 7: So what he did is genius for that, you know, 667 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,560 Speaker 7: blal if he was smart, he would have had in 668 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 7: his contract if he beat Luk A that he's guaranteed 669 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 7: of with a B, A C. But that doesn't it 670 00:31:02,800 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 7: doesn't work like that, you know, And you get a 671 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:08,000 Speaker 7: lot of you get a lot of pushback from the promoters, 672 00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:12,280 Speaker 7: you really do they they you know, just go back 673 00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 7: to remember Brendan Shap did that thing on Joe Silva. 674 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:16,720 Speaker 7: Way the guy says, you want to listen to what 675 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 7: he has to say about you? Put him on like 676 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:22,200 Speaker 7: the another line, the guy just pissed on him, you 677 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 7: know what I mean? So you know they either like 678 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 7: you they don't like you. 679 00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, don't talk about my friend Joe Silva that way. Okay, guys, 680 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:32,840 Speaker 6: I love shop as well. 681 00:31:33,880 --> 00:31:34,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead. 682 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,440 Speaker 6: Oh, we got another UFC Hall of Famer, Mark Ratner 683 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 6: coming up at about sixty seconds and say hi to them. No, 684 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 6: I'm gonna let you say hello. But I just had 685 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 6: one more thing that I wanted to ask you both. 686 00:31:46,320 --> 00:31:50,400 Speaker 6: So Alexander Volkanowski broke his thumb and in all likelihood 687 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:53,320 Speaker 6: he'll be out till December, right, which would be the 688 00:31:53,400 --> 00:31:55,040 Speaker 6: time for his next title defense. 689 00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 2: Right. 690 00:31:55,720 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 6: We have a huge main event coming up in six 691 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 6: days between Yar Rodriguez and Brian Ortega. Brian or Tega 692 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 6: twice his challenge for the undisputed UFC Featherweight Championship. Yahia 693 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 6: Rodriguez hasn't competed very often, but he's never challenged for 694 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,720 Speaker 6: the belt. So if Yaya Rodriguez wins, perhaps he's the guy. 695 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,360 Speaker 6: Maybe Josh Ammata in his late thirties is the guy. 696 00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 6: But Ken Flaw, I'll start with you on this. I 697 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,920 Speaker 6: would submit to you one thug nasty Bryce Mitchell, who 698 00:32:20,080 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 6: wrote on social media and by the way, has the 699 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 6: requisite winning streak to get a championship opportunity as far 700 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 6: as I'm concerned, and respect to Arnold Allen as well 701 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,080 Speaker 6: in this mix, but thug nasty sort of and a 702 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 6: paraphrasing said, you know a lot of these other guys 703 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:34,000 Speaker 6: maybe aren't calling out both because they don't think they 704 00:32:34,040 --> 00:32:36,600 Speaker 6: have the chops to beat him. You know, Bryce really 705 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,320 Speaker 6: thinks he has the style and the tenacity and the 706 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:42,920 Speaker 6: tools to beat Volkanovsky. So I've been thinking a lot 707 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,160 Speaker 6: about Volkanovsky since his his dominance of Max Holloway. I 708 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 6: just before we get to Mark, I wanted to get 709 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,360 Speaker 6: your thoughts can flow on on Bryce Mitchell as viable 710 00:32:50,400 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 6: featherweight challenger right now for Volcanovsk. 711 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,040 Speaker 2: I think he's one fight away from that. I think 712 00:32:57,960 --> 00:33:01,080 Speaker 2: if you're gonna beat someone like a Volcano, I think 713 00:33:01,200 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 2: Bryce does have the grappling skills to challenge him in 714 00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 2: a lot of different areas there on the ground. But 715 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,320 Speaker 2: I would like to see his striking sharpen up a 716 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:13,720 Speaker 2: little bit more. Volkanovski show that he has, you know, 717 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 2: now a world class striking for sure. You do that 718 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 2: to a Max Holloway, you're doing something right. He just 719 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 2: looked really clean and sharp and more sophisticated than a 720 00:33:24,800 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 2: lot of strikers out there. Man grat he was doing 721 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,720 Speaker 2: his kind of next level stuff. So I love Bryce Mitchell, 722 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 2: I love his attitude, but I think I'd like to 723 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 2: see at least one more fight and and some sharpening 724 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:37,320 Speaker 2: of his striking skills. 725 00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:38,840 Speaker 4: First yeah, I gotta tell you. 726 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 7: First off, I didn't get a chance to see you 727 00:33:41,000 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 7: guys last week, but Volkanowski hit another level. To me, 728 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:48,520 Speaker 7: that was a phenomenal performance against a guy that's been 729 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:50,720 Speaker 7: really doping really good. 730 00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 2: I thought Max was going to give him way more. 731 00:33:53,120 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 7: Problems in that fight, and I couldn't have been more 732 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:56,960 Speaker 7: wrong Vulkanowski. 733 00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 4: And again, he didn't play it safe. 734 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 2: He went for it. 735 00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 4: He was He's a problem, you know. 736 00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:06,640 Speaker 7: So the Bryce Mitchell thing is, Man, I love Bryce Mitchell, 737 00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:09,680 Speaker 7: you know, and I you know, i'd like to look 738 00:34:09,719 --> 00:34:11,480 Speaker 7: you got to get you got to start changing up 739 00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:13,640 Speaker 7: the fights and giving guys that haven't fought yet a 740 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 7: chance to fight, So I would say, I would say, 741 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 7: I don't even know if one fight would help him. 742 00:34:18,560 --> 00:34:18,840 Speaker 4: Kenny. 743 00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:22,279 Speaker 7: With the way Volkanowski looked, I mean he was, he 744 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 7: was shocked. The way he's been performing lately is on 745 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,239 Speaker 7: another level. And he looks healthy and he looks he 746 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:30,400 Speaker 7: just looks dynamite. 747 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 4: Man. 748 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 7: That was a fantastic performance. Like I can't say enough 749 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,320 Speaker 7: about just man. His combos were crisp, they were fast. 750 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 7: He was the way he could hit and exit without 751 00:34:38,719 --> 00:34:41,040 Speaker 7: getting hit, and he made beautiful you know when you 752 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:43,960 Speaker 7: look at like the levels of even what Holloway did 753 00:34:44,040 --> 00:34:47,080 Speaker 7: to Calvin cater and then what he did to Holland 754 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 7: this is crazy. I mean that and cater I love, 755 00:34:51,760 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 7: you know, and I almost always used to think Catera 756 00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 7: would have been a better matchup for Volkanowski. 757 00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:58,440 Speaker 4: I don't even know now this guy is just he was. 758 00:34:58,680 --> 00:34:59,480 Speaker 2: He was on fire. 759 00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 7: You know, he's maybe Calvin cater against Bryce Mitchell and 760 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,360 Speaker 7: the winner maybe get something. 761 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 6: That's a good one. I'm just telling you. For me 762 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 6: as fan and commentator, the intrigue for me even right now, 763 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 6: and Bolkanovski probably a four to one favorite against Bryce Mitchell, 764 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:18,560 Speaker 6: but locked the door behind those two getting ready to 765 00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 6: call that fight. I'd be very curious to see how 766 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 6: that would play out. All right, now, I want to 767 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 6: welcome in one of my dearest friends. This bends in 768 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:28,480 Speaker 6: a lot of Hall of fames.

It's called Ringside, My Life Outside the 837 00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 6: Ropes and the Octagon. What a legend. I've been going 838 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:25,560 Speaker 6: through this all morning, my man, I don't even know 839 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:27,640 Speaker 6: where to begin, but before I get into the book, 840 00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,799 Speaker 6: So you had NBA Summer League duties yesterday and then 841 00:38:30,840 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 6: you rifle over to the UFC Apex. So what can 842 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 6: you tell us about about your day and all that 843 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,000 Speaker 6: you were able to ingest yesterday there in Nevada? 844 00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 9: I think most importantly, I went to watch my grandkids 845 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:46,640 Speaker 9: play eight and under hoops. That was to start with it, 846 00:38:46,719 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 9: about nine o'clock yesterday morning. Then I went over to 847 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 9: the Thomas and Mac. I did have the season that 848 00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:57,440 Speaker 9: Miami Heat, so that was fun, and Boston got beat 849 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,799 Speaker 9: I think by nine or ten. Really hard to see 850 00:39:01,160 --> 00:39:03,360 Speaker 9: what kind of teams these are because they're playing so 851 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:06,240 Speaker 9: many guys and a lot of people you'll never see again. 852 00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 9: But I did see Poncero play the night before, and 853 00:39:10,040 --> 00:39:10,799 Speaker 9: he's the real thing. 854 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:15,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, sound. I actually did bet on the Summer League 855 00:39:15,640 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 6: for the first time yesterday, knowing that you were going 856 00:39:17,600 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 6: to be there. And again, these are just handicappers sending plays, right, 857 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 6: It's not me handicapping the board and we went two 858 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:28,320 Speaker 6: and one, so we were in the blacks, so historically speaking, 859 00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,839 Speaker 6: just to sort of get this out of the way 860 00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 6: and for my own personal curiosity having gone through the 861 00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 6: book a little bit. And by the way, Ringside is 862 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,960 Speaker 6: available at UFC store dot com, also on Amazon and 863 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,720 Speaker 6: really wherever you get your books. Ringside My Life Outside 864 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,799 Speaker 6: the Ropes and the Octagon. You joined the Nevada State 865 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,920 Speaker 6: Athletic Commission in nineteen eighty five, became executive director in 866 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:49,359 Speaker 6: nineteen ninety two, nineteen ninety two, and then you joined 867 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 6: the UFC in two thousand and six. So I guess 868 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 6: I'm just curious. In two thousand and six, obviously, in 869 00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:59,280 Speaker 6: hindsight you made a great decision. I'd imagine your wife agrees. 870 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,279 Speaker 6: What was your thought process at that stage of your 871 00:40:03,360 --> 00:40:07,840 Speaker 6: life professionally speaking, to leave the friendly confined so to speak, 872 00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,439 Speaker 6: of the commission world and join the UFC at that time? 873 00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:15,040 Speaker 9: Well, Lorenzo at one time was a commissioner further in 874 00:40:15,080 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 9: the bad Athletic Commission, and in late two thousand and 875 00:40:19,719 --> 00:40:21,480 Speaker 9: five he came to me and said, have you ever 876 00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 9: thought about leaving the Commission? I said, no, I've got 877 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,680 Speaker 9: the best regulatory job in the world, and he said, well, 878 00:40:28,280 --> 00:40:32,680 Speaker 9: we'll talked early two thousand and six, and quite simply, 879 00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:36,879 Speaker 9: Lorenzo is a great salesman, but he brought him the closer, Dana, 880 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:41,279 Speaker 9: and it was that simple. And I told him I 881 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,640 Speaker 9: couldn't come till after a De la Joie fight, I 882 00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 9: think it was Sinco de Mayo in two thousand and six. 883 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 9: The next Monday after that fight, I came over and 884 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 9: I still love to go to boxing, but I never 885 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 9: looked back. It was the second best decision. First best 886 00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,879 Speaker 9: decision obviously getting married, but the second one was coming 887 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 9: of the USC. 888 00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 6: So when I left ESPN in twenty eleven, there were 889 00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,839 Speaker 6: a lot of people in my life who suggested, hey, man, 890 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,280 Speaker 6: you know it took you forever to get to Bristol, Connecticut. 891 00:41:09,320 --> 00:41:11,400 Speaker 6: You're finally there, and now you're going to go do 892 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,080 Speaker 6: this mixed martial arts thing. You know, you've never punched 893 00:41:14,120 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 6: a heavy bag in your life. You don't know anything 894 00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,680 Speaker 6: about that sport, and certainly you know you can argue 895 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 6: both sides of my coin, I guess, but have you 896 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 6: ever had a conversation with you It's like, hey, honey, 897 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 6: I think I think we made the right decision, right. 898 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 6: I don't know if it's reflectively after you're inducted into 899 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,600 Speaker 6: the Hall of Fame or after you get MMA regulation 900 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,760 Speaker 6: done in New York. But was there ever a conversation 901 00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:37,440 Speaker 6: with your family about that decision and sort of the 902 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:39,840 Speaker 6: quality of the decision you made at that time, not 903 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:41,919 Speaker 6: knowing exactly what you were walking into. 904 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 9: Well, the first thing is with Lorenzo and Dana, and 905 00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,279 Speaker 9: we never talked about anything but America. We didn't talk 906 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 9: about the world. So I have no idea what the 907 00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:56,520 Speaker 9: job would entail except going to different states trying to 908 00:41:56,560 --> 00:41:59,759 Speaker 9: get the sport approved and obviously and New York was 909 00:41:59,800 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 9: the cherry on top and it took us eight years. 910 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:09,040 Speaker 9: But no, my wife she supported it. She just the 911 00:42:09,160 --> 00:42:10,880 Speaker 9: only thing she really told me when I left, you 912 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,399 Speaker 9: said you have to get a contract for at least 913 00:42:13,440 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 9: three years because you're leaving a good job. 914 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, so that was that was it. That's good. Mark 915 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:21,840 Speaker 6: Ratner with us here on the anac Implorian podcast. So 916 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:26,040 Speaker 6: twenty years ago, I'm getting started in sports radio, probably 917 00:42:26,080 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 6: around the time we used to have the great Mark 918 00:42:27,840 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 6: Ratner on the Mouthpiece Boxing show. He would always come 919 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 6: on with little peons like us. You know, I gotta say, 920 00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:35,800 Speaker 6: but my grandfather said to me, probably I don't know 921 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:39,320 Speaker 6: two thousand and two, that if you take five minutes 922 00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,560 Speaker 6: every day to write down a couple of sentences about 923 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 6: your day, in fifteen or twenty years, you'll have a memoir. 924 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 6: And really wish I had done that, because my memory 925 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:51,240 Speaker 6: isn't great. Your memory's pretty good. How was the process 926 00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 6: for you in terms of jogging your own memory when 927 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 6: you went back to write this book? 928 00:42:56,600 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 9: The key was having a writer helped me a ghost writer, 929 00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:04,919 Speaker 9: and we would talk probably about two hours a week 930 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 9: for five to six months, and every time you'd ask 931 00:43:10,040 --> 00:43:12,160 Speaker 9: a question, it would remind me of something else. And 932 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:16,640 Speaker 9: so what would happen is I would think of other things, 933 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:18,560 Speaker 9: and then he would send me a chapter and I 934 00:43:18,560 --> 00:43:21,000 Speaker 9: would edit it and make a couple of changes. And 935 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 9: I don't think I could ever just sit by a 936 00:43:23,800 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 9: computer and write things down. So it turned out. I 937 00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:29,640 Speaker 9: wasn't sure how it would turn out, but I'm very 938 00:43:29,719 --> 00:43:32,080 Speaker 9: happy with it, and I wrote it more for my 939 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 9: family and my friends. I'm not trying to be a 940 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,360 Speaker 9: bestseller or anything else. That's all I wanted to do, 941 00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:38,640 Speaker 9: and it came out to it. 942 00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,960 Speaker 2: Oh, Mark, You've been like probably one of the biggest 943 00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:45,239 Speaker 2: sports fans that I've ever met. I mean, John is 944 00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:46,840 Speaker 2: one of the biggest sports fans I've ever met. You 945 00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:49,920 Speaker 2: made him look like a nube. You've been involved as 946 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 2: an executive director. You know, you've refereed a bunch of 947 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,239 Speaker 2: college games and things like that. Is there a top 948 00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,879 Speaker 2: three for you as far as events that you've been 949 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:01,239 Speaker 2: a part of that were most memorable. I know it's 950 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 2: kind of a difficult question because I know you've been 951 00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 2: around so many different sports and events. 952 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:10,680 Speaker 9: But well, the highlight of my officiating career was working 953 00:44:10,760 --> 00:44:13,160 Speaker 9: the game at Notre Dame to walk on that field 954 00:44:13,920 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 9: have the repericon dance around me. I watched Rudy a 955 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,560 Speaker 9: couple of days beforehand and I touched the sign to say, 956 00:44:20,600 --> 00:44:23,319 Speaker 9: probably like a champion of the day. And Charlie Weis 957 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 9: yell at me for three hours in football in Boston. 958 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 9: The two most memorable things obviously with a bike fight 959 00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:36,680 Speaker 9: and the most crazy thing ever still was a fan 960 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 9: man flying into the ring with a propeller And there's 961 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 9: nothing in the rule book that says what do you 962 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 9: do now when a guy flies into the work in 963 00:44:45,880 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 9: my most Memorable moments. 964 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:51,920 Speaker 6: Ken Full played soccer at Boston College. But I know 965 00:44:52,040 --> 00:44:54,319 Speaker 6: he doesn't have the venom or the hate for Notre 966 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 6: Dame that I do as a BC. 967 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:01,080 Speaker 2: That's cool, Mark, I what you mentioned Tyson real quick? 968 00:45:01,120 --> 00:45:03,279 Speaker 2: There there's some good Mike Tyson stuff in the book. 969 00:45:04,400 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 2: Is there a story or or I don't know, some 970 00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:11,799 Speaker 2: kind of tidbit history that you can kind of talk 971 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,640 Speaker 2: about that was most memorable for memorable for you. 972 00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 9: One day I was driving my kids to school and 973 00:45:21,320 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 9: I saw this guy jogging by, and he knew me 974 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,600 Speaker 9: from the Commission, and he stopped and just was Tyson 975 00:45:28,719 --> 00:45:31,840 Speaker 9: jogging by himself, and he said, and he has a 976 00:45:32,120 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 9: little bit of a list, and he said, I'm mister 977 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 9: Ratner and instead a load of the kids considering everything, 978 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,280 Speaker 9: and I was the face of the Commission. He's always 979 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 9: been very nice to me, didn't hold anything against me. 980 00:45:46,160 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 9: I'm the one who had to say you've got to 981 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 9: give us three million dollars of your purse and just 982 00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:53,480 Speaker 9: a just a crazy time. But whenever I see him now, 983 00:45:54,239 --> 00:45:56,520 Speaker 9: when he walks into a fight, he's still the most 984 00:45:56,560 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 9: popular guy there. It's amazing. He is just right now. 985 00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 9: I'd say he's in the top of his career as 986 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,960 Speaker 9: a as an entertainer, as a writer, as a stand 987 00:46:08,080 --> 00:46:10,919 Speaker 9: up comedian. I'm happy where he is in his life. 988 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:13,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, and seems like the cannabis he gets is a 989 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,520 Speaker 6: lot better than this stuff they have down here in 990 00:46:15,600 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 6: South Florida. I don't know. 991 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,160 Speaker 9: I think that there's probably some truth to it. I 992 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 9: think he's he's in the market for it. I think 993 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:21,640 Speaker 9: he's in the. 994 00:46:21,640 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 4: Business of it. 995 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 6: Yeah, he is, so, Mark. Perhaps most interesting for me 996 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 6: is some of the stuff on the MMA legalization in 997 00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:32,200 Speaker 6: the book, and just the tremendous lengths that you and 998 00:46:32,280 --> 00:46:35,520 Speaker 6: Laurence Epstein and everybody else went to to get mixed 999 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 6: martial arts regulated statewide across the US. So the momentum 1000 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,800 Speaker 6: from one state to the next, right, I'd imagine, and 1001 00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:44,960 Speaker 6: you touch on this in the book, but when you know, 1002 00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 6: you get a certain state done, to be able to 1003 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,200 Speaker 6: be bullied by that, to go to the next state 1004 00:46:49,280 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 6: and say, hey, you know, just next door, we got 1005 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,399 Speaker 6: this done, I'd imagine that gave you a tremendous leg 1006 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:56,960 Speaker 6: to stand on as you you know, knocked one state 1007 00:46:57,040 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 6: off after the next. 1008 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:03,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, especially from the economics. We're saying to Pennsylvania, you 1009 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 9: know this, this state right next to you is doing it. 1010 00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:08,000 Speaker 9: Your people are going over the border to New Jersey 1011 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:11,520 Speaker 9: or something. Right, You're losing money here right. Well, that 1012 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:15,279 Speaker 9: was one of the process. And I always want to 1013 00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 9: give credit to Mike Mersh, who was our great friend 1014 00:47:18,520 --> 00:47:20,839 Speaker 9: who I needed a lawyer with me wherever we went. 1015 00:47:21,360 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 9: I could talk to the regulators, but to have the 1016 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,240 Speaker 9: lawyer talk to the attorney generals and the different people 1017 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 9: was a big key and he was very special for me. 1018 00:47:30,400 --> 00:47:33,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I remember you. Me and mrsh used to 1019 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 6: travel a lot together when I lived in Las Vegas 1020 00:47:36,680 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 6: several years ago. So what are your emotions like on 1021 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 6: fight night compared to say, twenty or thirty years ago? 1022 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 6: And I asked that, you know, Mark always comes over 1023 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,560 Speaker 6: to the broadcast booth and gives me the handshake or 1024 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:50,320 Speaker 6: the fist bump and helps give me confidence. And obviously 1025 00:47:50,400 --> 00:47:52,440 Speaker 6: I have my own emotions on fight night, trying to 1026 00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:54,400 Speaker 6: get my head around the next eight hours or so. 1027 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 6: But for you, what is it like, you know, walking 1028 00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:00,719 Speaker 6: into T Mobile Arena for UFC two seventy compared to 1029 00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 6: you know, the fight fight way back in the desk. 1030 00:48:04,800 --> 00:48:07,000 Speaker 9: No, it's a lot different because I was worried about 1031 00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 9: so many for boxing, so many different fact facets of it. 1032 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 9: To make sure the ropes were good in the in 1033 00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:16,359 Speaker 9: the ring, make sure that all the inspectors are ready, 1034 00:48:16,480 --> 00:48:19,680 Speaker 9: and uh so I had a little checklist. Now when 1035 00:48:19,680 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 9: I come to the fights, the most important part would 1036 00:48:22,000 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 9: be the check in with the with zach our producer, 1037 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:28,879 Speaker 9: directors and just in case I need to talk to them. 1038 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 9: But uh, there's always a feeling excitement. I like the 1039 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 9: way the crowd grows as the fight progress, and uh, 1040 00:48:36,920 --> 00:48:40,360 Speaker 9: there's a different energy in MMA then boxing. The crowd's 1041 00:48:40,400 --> 00:48:44,880 Speaker 9: younger obviously, and the music it's like a rock and 1042 00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 9: roll concert with fights in between. Four yes, and then 1043 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,560 Speaker 9: when you get to the main event, it's it's just 1044 00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,839 Speaker 9: a very exciting and I think the energy is really 1045 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:54,480 Speaker 9: what gets to me. 1046 00:48:55,120 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, do you have any of these internationals on your 1047 00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,680 Speaker 6: docket coming up?

I 1087 00:50:54,200 --> 00:50:56,200 Speaker 6: used to hate that team as a kid, and now 1088 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,680 Speaker 6: I those fan bases are so starved. Like if you 1089 00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:03,560 Speaker 6: could one team mark to win a championship next, Like, 1090 00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 6: do you have enough of a rooting interest for one 1091 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 6: team in sports? Like for me, no doubt about it, 1092 00:51:08,200 --> 00:51:10,279 Speaker 6: it would be the Boston Celtics because they just came 1093 00:51:10,360 --> 00:51:12,600 Speaker 6: so close. Like do you have one team that you 1094 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,640 Speaker 6: would root for like to win a title next? 1095 00:51:15,520 --> 00:51:18,399 Speaker 9: Well, I was a good Cub fan. I was really 1096 00:51:18,440 --> 00:51:22,480 Speaker 9: happy when they finally got to be good. When it 1097 00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 9: comes to the NBA, I was actually hoping that the 1098 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:29,520 Speaker 9: Nets would be a real team with the three superstars 1099 00:51:29,600 --> 00:51:32,680 Speaker 9: and would they play fourteen games together in three years 1100 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 9: or something? 1101 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:33,360 Speaker 2: So that. 1102 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:38,839 Speaker 9: I think the league's better. The NBA is better when 1103 00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:41,320 Speaker 9: the Knicks and the Lakers are strong and makes it 1104 00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:46,399 Speaker 9: more of a better time. But all these small market teams. 1105 00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,760 Speaker 9: I want to see what happened in New Orleans with Zion. 1106 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:53,719 Speaker 9: Maybe they'll finally get some guys around him and they'll 1107 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 9: do good. So the NBA is just it's exploding right now. 1108 00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,920 Speaker 6: No, they You're right, the NBA's on fire, the Memphis Grizzlies. 1109 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:02,600 Speaker 6: I don't have a soft spot for the New York 1110 00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,359 Speaker 6: Knicks yet. I don't know if that will ever materialize. 1111 00:52:05,440 --> 00:52:07,279 Speaker 6: You know, I think the Knicks and the Yankees are 1112 00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,560 Speaker 6: on an island by themselves.

Very happy for Chase Sherman, you know, 1157 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,680 Speaker 6: to to get a bonus, right, to get a win. 1158 00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 6: I believe his last fight against Alexander Romanov, he was 1159 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:28,880 Speaker 6: the biggest betting underdog in UFC history. And he's just 1160 00:54:28,960 --> 00:54:33,600 Speaker 6: been through a lot, you know, you know, some issues 1161 00:54:34,040 --> 00:54:36,840 Speaker 6: after surgeries with getting like a bad drug in his 1162 00:54:36,960 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 6: siste Like, he's just been through a lot. So I'm 1163 00:54:38,520 --> 00:54:40,560 Speaker 6: very happy for Chase. I know you're happy for Paras 1164 00:54:40,640 --> 00:54:42,480 Speaker 6: the Hobby's younger brother, Aman who got to win over 1165 00:54:42,560 --> 00:54:45,840 Speaker 6: Rickey Forcios in a fight that wasn't necessarily great. And 1166 00:54:45,880 --> 00:54:48,240 Speaker 6: then fight of the night Jamie Malarkey and Michael Johnson. 1167 00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:50,480 Speaker 6: You know, I think for a lot of people, this 1168 00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 6: is a great lesson and why maybe you should bet 1169 00:54:52,840 --> 00:54:55,640 Speaker 6: on baseball and not mixed martial arts because Michael Johnson 1170 00:54:55,719 --> 00:54:58,239 Speaker 6: was plus two thirty or so and you got dudes 1171 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:00,880 Speaker 6: walking to the window to cash those tickets and it 1172 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:02,120 Speaker 6: goes to Jamie Malarkey. 1173 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:05,560 Speaker 2: I know, listen, Malarkey fought his ass off, right, and 1174 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:07,799 Speaker 2: this is not a knock on him, but I thought, 1175 00:55:07,920 --> 00:55:10,759 Speaker 2: if you're again, if you're scoring fights the way that 1176 00:55:10,840 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 2: we've been talking about for the last several weeks, when 1177 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,600 Speaker 2: we had Sean chain On and all that, Michael Johnson, 1178 00:55:16,600 --> 00:55:17,000 Speaker 2: I thought. 1179 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:17,719 Speaker 6: She should have won that fight. 1180 00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 2: It was it was two to one, he won the 1181 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 2: first round in the third round in my opinion, and 1182 00:55:22,160 --> 00:55:24,000 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people felt the same way, 1183 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,040 Speaker 2: except for those judges. I also think if we go 1184 00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 2: back to the Chase, Sherman and Vandera fight, Yes, those 1185 00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:33,160 Speaker 2: guys had Sherman winning that fight. Sure, they had Sherman 1186 00:55:33,200 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 2: winning that fight, whereas I thought Vandera was winning those 1187 00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:38,399 Speaker 2: first two rounds. I thought Sherman needed that knockout to win, 1188 00:55:38,840 --> 00:55:43,000 Speaker 2: which made it all the more dramatic and impressive. But yeah, man, 1189 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,160 Speaker 2: we again. I think it goes to show you that 1190 00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:48,839 Speaker 2: really the judges just need to be better at that job, 1191 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 2: at their jobs. I don't think there's a scoring criteria 1192 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:55,800 Speaker 2: that is going to fix all of those issues, but 1193 00:55:56,000 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think it left myself and a 1194 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,840 Speaker 2: lot of fans I think, still confused about how to 1195 00:56:00,880 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 2: score fight so whatever. 1196 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:06,280 Speaker 6: And certainly I have been defensive of the judges at times. 1197 00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,759 Speaker 6: I think by and large it has not been a 1198 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:12,399 Speaker 6: great run for those with UH with scorecards that matter 1199 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 6: all right, if we missed anything at Anti Florian Pod. 1200 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 6: But in the nature of spinning it forward, we got 1201 00:56:18,719 --> 00:56:22,040 Speaker 6: a big one coming up this weekend. UBS Arena, Long Island, 1202 00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:27,920 Speaker 6: New York.

Like, I'm not taking 1322 01:02:20,640 --> 01:02:22,760 Speaker 5: this seriously. Yeah, I was pissed off. Because I put 1323 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:25,320 Speaker 5: a couple of unis two to one and I'm count 1324 01:02:25,440 --> 01:02:25,880 Speaker 5: my money. 1325 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:27,920 Speaker 2: But it is what it is. 1326 01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:29,800 Speaker 5: It's a game we play. I mean, I'm gonna bounce back. 1327 01:02:29,800 --> 01:02:31,520 Speaker 6: We're gonna be all right. All right, Well, let us 1328 01:02:31,600 --> 01:02:34,200 Speaker 6: rifle through some of these selections because this is a 1329 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 6: very deep card coming up on Long Island. You know, 1330 01:02:37,120 --> 01:02:40,080 Speaker 6: I had a hard time eliminating fights. Right, We're not 1331 01:02:40,200 --> 01:02:44,400 Speaker 6: picking the featured prelim between Poona Hele Soriano and Dalsha 1332 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:46,680 Speaker 6: long Giambula, right, but we do have seven picks, and 1333 01:02:46,760 --> 01:02:48,720 Speaker 6: we are going to pick one prelim because it is 1334 01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:52,560 Speaker 6: a huge prelim and the bandam weeight division live on ESPN. 1335 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,720 Speaker 6: This fight will probably be around one pm. Eastern Bantamweight Division, 1336 01:02:56,800 --> 01:03:01,880 Speaker 6: fourteenth ranked Jack shore minus one taking on number eleven 1337 01:03:01,960 --> 01:03:04,800 Speaker 6: Ricky Simone, who is plus one forty five sure out 1338 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:06,840 Speaker 6: of whales. As you just heard from Ray Longo, those 1339 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:08,600 Speaker 6: guys have been cross training a little bit there at 1340 01:03:08,760 --> 01:03:12,439 Speaker 6: Longo Wideman MMA. Jack Shawan defeated sixteen to no Ricky 1341 01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 6: Simone seven and two in the UFC and far and 1342 01:03:15,560 --> 01:03:19,120 Speaker 6: away Brian Short's toughest test to date. How do you handicap, 1343 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 6: this one at one hundred and thirty five pounds. 1344 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 5: I gotta be honest you, this is this is a 1345 01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:25,920 Speaker 5: pass for me as a betting. This is as close 1346 01:03:25,960 --> 01:03:29,480 Speaker 5: as it gets. Listen, if you're a valuaboy, lean on Simone, 1347 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,000 Speaker 5: don't call him Simon at Simone. Trust me. I've ran 1348 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 5: into that problem before. 1349 01:03:33,920 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 2: But he's really. 1350 01:03:35,160 --> 01:03:37,920 Speaker 5: Fucking good and he's fought styles like this. I mean, 1351 01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:39,880 Speaker 5: he fought morob early in his career, which I thought 1352 01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 5: he was losing the fight until that bullshit, you know 1353 01:03:42,400 --> 01:03:44,439 Speaker 5: they when they said what it was with the weird 1354 01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:46,640 Speaker 5: choke whatever, I want to go down that road. But 1355 01:03:47,200 --> 01:03:50,720 Speaker 5: he fought these intense grapplers that are constantly trying to grapple, 1356 01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:53,000 Speaker 5: and j Jack Shore is very similar to that. He's 1357 01:03:53,000 --> 01:03:56,080 Speaker 5: a little bit different, build, longer, apparently very very stronger. 1358 01:03:56,120 --> 01:03:58,520 Speaker 5: Strikings come a long way, but this is as close 1359 01:03:58,560 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 5: as it gets. 1360 01:03:59,200 --> 01:03:59,320 Speaker 2: Man. 1361 01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:02,240 Speaker 5: I thinks never fought anybody like Simone, and I think 1362 01:04:02,280 --> 01:04:04,040 Speaker 5: Simone is really coming to his own here. I think 1363 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,360 Speaker 5: his striking's coming a long way. I think he looks powerful. 1364 01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:09,000 Speaker 5: I think his cardios on point. He's up in Oregon, 1365 01:04:09,200 --> 01:04:12,439 Speaker 5: you know, in that camp Gracie Baja, and he's doing 1366 01:04:12,600 --> 01:04:15,240 Speaker 5: some great things. I think he's a little under the radar. 1367 01:04:15,280 --> 01:04:16,720 Speaker 5: You know, he popped up to forty five for a 1368 01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:19,680 Speaker 5: while during COVID and now he's back at thirty five. 1369 01:04:19,880 --> 01:04:24,160 Speaker 5: But I sung Jack Suorre's praises. I think the kid's special. 1370 01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:25,920 Speaker 5: I think his timing on the feet is really good, 1371 01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:27,640 Speaker 5: even though his striking is still coming a long way. 1372 01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:29,480 Speaker 5: I think he's very dangerous on the ground. I think 1373 01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:31,440 Speaker 5: he's gonna be more of a submission threat on the ground. 1374 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:33,600 Speaker 5: I just think they're gonna cancel each other on the ground. 1375 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:37,320 Speaker 5: It's gonna come to power versus versus technique and a 1376 01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:39,600 Speaker 5: little bit. You know, Jacksuar has some really great straight punches. 1377 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go chalk, I'm going to go sure, but 1378 01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:43,800 Speaker 5: it's a pass. On the betting side of me, this 1379 01:04:43,960 --> 01:04:45,920 Speaker 5: is just cound be my pick. It's Jack short. 1380 01:04:46,600 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, Ken Flow. Simone is plus one forty five here. 1381 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 6: I thought it would be a little bit closer, not 1382 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:53,919 Speaker 6: a pick him per se. I thought Jack Shorre would 1383 01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:55,800 Speaker 6: be favored. But Simone has one four in a row, 1384 01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:59,320 Speaker 6: big knockout of Pafeyla suns how last December. He has 1385 01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:01,320 Speaker 6: a little bit of Patty Pimblet in him and so 1386 01:05:01,440 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 6: far as he does blow up between fights. If you've 1387 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,200 Speaker 6: seen Ricky Simone on social media this week, I mean 1388 01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:10,960 Speaker 6: he is literally shredded in outstanding shape, but he does 1389 01:05:11,080 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 6: let himself go a little bit between fights. Big opportunity 1390 01:05:14,360 --> 01:05:17,439 Speaker 6: for both Simone and Shore on a big show Ken Flow, 1391 01:05:17,440 --> 01:05:20,200 Speaker 6: You're going with the favorite short or the underdog Rickey Simone. 1392 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 2: Man fantastic fight. Really curious to see what happens in 1393 01:05:23,280 --> 01:05:30,480 Speaker 2: this one. Geez, I've slept on Simone a lot. Unfortunately, 1394 01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:33,080 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go the other way again here with Jack Shore. 1395 01:05:33,160 --> 01:05:35,919 Speaker 2: I do think that Jack is a little bit clear 1396 01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:39,520 Speaker 2: with some of the things he does. You know, I 1397 01:05:39,600 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 2: think it probably comes down to the wrestling. You know, 1398 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 2: whoever is able to kind of dominate that aspect. I think, 1399 01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 2: you know, whoever gets on top, I think it's gonna 1400 01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:51,320 Speaker 2: have a big advantage because everything else is really damn close. 1401 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,840 Speaker 2: But I like Jack here. You know, see what he's 1402 01:05:55,920 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 2: done so far, and to be undefeated at this stage 1403 01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:00,840 Speaker 2: of his career is very impressive. But this is where 1404 01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:04,439 Speaker 2: the killers you know start to appear for him. Yeah, 1405 01:06:04,680 --> 01:06:08,720 Speaker 2: at this point at his trajectory, so let's go Jack here. 1406 01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:11,560 Speaker 6: It's like I'm too close to this, but like I 1407 01:06:11,760 --> 01:06:14,760 Speaker 6: see Jack Shore versus Ricky Simone, and I think, like 1408 01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:17,560 Speaker 6: UFC Fight Night, main event, I fucking love that fight. 1409 01:06:17,640 --> 01:06:19,640 Speaker 6: I mean, Simon is really all off, all the time, 1410 01:06:19,680 --> 01:06:22,200 Speaker 6: all right, first fight on the main card. This fight 1411 01:06:22,360 --> 01:06:23,880 Speaker 6: was to go down a couple weeks ago. Of course, 1412 01:06:23,960 --> 01:06:27,320 Speaker 6: Misha Tate and Lauren Murphy at flyweight, So Mesha Tate 1413 01:06:27,400 --> 01:06:32,040 Speaker 6: the minus one seventy five favorite, ten cents more a 1414 01:06:32,120 --> 01:06:34,959 Speaker 6: favorite than she was a couple of weeks ago. Lauren 1415 01:06:35,040 --> 01:06:37,720 Speaker 6: Murphy plus one fifty first fight back for Murphy since 1416 01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 6: she failed in her attempt to rest the belt away 1417 01:06:39,920 --> 01:06:43,760 Speaker 6: from Valentina Chepchanko last September. Misha Tate has fought twice 1418 01:06:44,240 --> 01:06:47,000 Speaker 6: since she ended a four and a half plus year retirement. 1419 01:06:47,360 --> 01:06:49,200 Speaker 6: Now she changes weight classes. Chem Flo, what do you 1420 01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:52,480 Speaker 6: think about Tate here making her UFC flyway debut against 1421 01:06:52,640 --> 01:06:53,280 Speaker 6: Lauren Murphy. 1422 01:06:54,360 --> 01:06:56,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's an interesting fight. I do think 1423 01:06:56,760 --> 01:06:59,400 Speaker 2: it's a good fight for Misha in that I feel 1424 01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:02,600 Speaker 2: like all the things that Lauren does well, I feel 1425 01:07:02,640 --> 01:07:05,640 Speaker 2: like Misha does a little bit better. I do think 1426 01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:11,120 Speaker 2: that Lauren is still very scrappy Misha, you know, at 1427 01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,400 Speaker 2: this stage of her career. Who knows if she still 1428 01:07:14,520 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 2: has that willingness to really get down and dirty if 1429 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,720 Speaker 2: she needs to be. I think she does, but you 1430 01:07:19,840 --> 01:07:21,600 Speaker 2: never know what some of the fighters have been around 1431 01:07:21,640 --> 01:07:23,840 Speaker 2: for a long time. I do think that, you know, 1432 01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:26,280 Speaker 2: she has a different approach, a different mentality, which I 1433 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:29,120 Speaker 2: love to see. I think she's gonna be more technical 1434 01:07:29,240 --> 01:07:31,280 Speaker 2: here in this fight, and that's gonna be the difference. 1435 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:33,800 Speaker 2: But let's go with Misha here. 1436 01:07:34,440 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 6: Brian, what do you think? 1437 01:07:35,400 --> 01:07:35,440 Speaker 7: Me? 1438 01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:37,040 Speaker 6: Shaul Tate, Lauren Murphy? Who do you like? 1439 01:07:37,320 --> 01:07:39,440 Speaker 5: This is a classic? You're tinkering with it because I 1440 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:41,320 Speaker 5: have my pick lined up a couple of weeks ago, 1441 01:07:41,400 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 5: and now I've been thinking about it. The producer to 1442 01:07:43,720 --> 01:07:45,720 Speaker 5: the Stars Cody Marris that he was gonna hammer Laura 1443 01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,680 Speaker 5: Murphy at that dog price, and here I am gonna 1444 01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:51,120 Speaker 5: go Mesha take and I really the reason I do 1445 01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,960 Speaker 5: is because since Misha had birth to her child, she's 1446 01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:56,200 Speaker 5: come back and she's looked just in phenomenal shape. Even 1447 01:07:56,200 --> 01:07:58,600 Speaker 5: if thirty five she was shredded, and she goes, oh, 1448 01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:00,960 Speaker 5: I can make twenty five so I'm not super worried 1449 01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:02,400 Speaker 5: about the way coo because I know I think she's 1450 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:04,600 Speaker 5: doing it right seeing the Instagram photos. She seems to 1451 01:08:04,640 --> 01:08:06,280 Speaker 5: be in shape. And Laura Murphy, I just think it's 1452 01:08:06,280 --> 01:08:09,160 Speaker 5: gonna be a little too slow. She's good everywhere, but 1453 01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:11,520 Speaker 5: she's not great everywhere, and I think Niece is going 1454 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:13,640 Speaker 5: to kind of expose that with her takedowns. I think 1455 01:08:13,720 --> 01:08:15,080 Speaker 5: Nisa is very good on the ground. I think she 1456 01:08:15,080 --> 01:08:18,080 Speaker 5: has very good submissions, and she can get really I mean, 1457 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:19,840 Speaker 5: as pretty as she is, she can get fucking mean 1458 01:08:19,920 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 5: in there and then get roll scrappy and death plug 1459 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:23,479 Speaker 5: it out. And she's tough. She's got a good chin. 1460 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:25,720 Speaker 5: So I'm gonna go Cupcake Tate here on this one, 1461 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:26,599 Speaker 5: all right. 1462 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:30,639 Speaker 6: Next up at featherweight the All Action Hero Shane Burgos 1463 01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,760 Speaker 6: minus one ninety five taken on charl Air Jordaane, who 1464 01:08:33,800 --> 01:08:37,559 Speaker 6: is plus one sixty five. So question beckins, guys, will 1465 01:08:37,680 --> 01:08:41,400 Speaker 6: Shane Burgos become a legitimate title contender? The guy that 1466 01:08:41,520 --> 01:08:44,320 Speaker 6: many thought he would become? Right, Because I say all 1467 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 6: Action hero somewhat tongue in cheek, right, it sounds great 1468 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:50,240 Speaker 6: he is that, but he has aspirations well, beyond just 1469 01:08:50,320 --> 01:08:53,320 Speaker 6: being an exciting fighter. So if he is to make 1470 01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:56,559 Speaker 6: good on those expectations, brah, he's got to beat Charles Jordaane, 1471 01:08:56,760 --> 01:08:58,400 Speaker 6: how do he handicap this one? At one hundred and 1472 01:08:58,439 --> 01:08:59,680 Speaker 6: forty five pounds, this is a. 1473 01:08:59,680 --> 01:09:00,640 Speaker 2: Tough one for me to pick. 1474 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:02,679 Speaker 5: I mean besides simone and short, because I'm not gonna 1475 01:09:02,680 --> 01:09:04,640 Speaker 5: have action on that fight. This was the toughest one 1476 01:09:04,680 --> 01:09:07,080 Speaker 5: for me. Like I like Charles Jordan. I think his technique, 1477 01:09:07,080 --> 01:09:09,600 Speaker 5: I think his striking is very good. Is sometimes he 1478 01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:11,920 Speaker 5: gets caught up and if you look at the Julian 1479 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 5: Rosa fight, like when he wanted when a Rosa want 1480 01:09:14,840 --> 01:09:17,680 Speaker 5: to brawl, he and he entertained that idea and then 1481 01:09:17,720 --> 01:09:19,400 Speaker 5: he kind of fell behind the guy and got choked out. 1482 01:09:19,640 --> 01:09:22,400 Speaker 5: Shan Burgos is boxing slick. His chin is slick. He's 1483 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:26,599 Speaker 5: fucking huge for forty five. Still, every time I'm gonna 1484 01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:28,720 Speaker 5: tweet it Saturday, you can fucking put your money on it. 1485 01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:30,320 Speaker 5: I was like, how does this guy make forty five 1486 01:09:30,360 --> 01:09:31,960 Speaker 5: because I think he's in his career at fifty five 1487 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:34,800 Speaker 5: and I think you know he's thirty one. Now, as 1488 01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:36,200 Speaker 5: you get a little older, I think fifty five is 1489 01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:37,519 Speaker 5: gonna help that chin a little bit. Not that his 1490 01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:40,760 Speaker 5: chin's a problem, but that Eds and Barbosa knockout scared me. 1491 01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:43,920 Speaker 5: That delayed reaction terrified me. I was like, what has happened? 1492 01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:45,800 Speaker 5: Like his brain was like no, I'm good, I'm good, 1493 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:47,880 Speaker 5: and then he just collapses. That was pretty scary. But 1494 01:09:48,160 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 5: the guy's absolute nails. His boxing is really good, his 1495 01:09:50,200 --> 01:09:52,680 Speaker 5: power is really good, and he gets in and out 1496 01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 5: his card. He was actually really impressive too for being 1497 01:09:54,600 --> 01:09:58,120 Speaker 5: so big. I leaned Jordaane early on. I think Jordan, 1498 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:00,360 Speaker 5: you know, showed up and showed some submissions coming off 1499 01:10:00,400 --> 01:10:02,920 Speaker 5: that guillotine joke, and I like him. But man, this 1500 01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:05,080 Speaker 5: gonna be fine. The night written all over. I'm gonna 1501 01:10:05,120 --> 01:10:08,559 Speaker 5: go uh Shamburgos, I'm gonna go Chalk. It's a little 1502 01:10:08,600 --> 01:10:10,360 Speaker 5: wide for me. I don't like how it's almost two 1503 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:12,599 Speaker 5: to one. I just think when the tough gets going, 1504 01:10:12,760 --> 01:10:14,760 Speaker 5: he's been there a little more than Jordana. I think 1505 01:10:14,800 --> 01:10:18,400 Speaker 5: Jordaane's a Vanesse guy, and I think Burgos in New York, 1506 01:10:18,520 --> 01:10:21,679 Speaker 5: He's gonna fucking want to bring it. So give me Burgos. 1507 01:10:21,720 --> 01:10:22,840 Speaker 5: Even though I do think the line is a. 1508 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:26,080 Speaker 6: Little wide, Burgos has fought so much in New York 1509 01:10:26,200 --> 01:10:29,240 Speaker 6: all over the state. From the UFC out pointed Billy 1510 01:10:29,280 --> 01:10:31,479 Speaker 6: Q last November that was at Madison Square Garden. He 1511 01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 6: is still ranked now number fourteen in the world Ken Plow. 1512 01:10:34,000 --> 01:10:37,160 Speaker 6: On the other side, the much improved Charles Jordayne. He's 1513 01:10:37,200 --> 01:10:39,800 Speaker 6: won three or four submitted Lando Banata earlier this year. 1514 01:10:40,320 --> 01:10:42,879 Speaker 6: How do you handicap his chances here against Shaan Burgos. 1515 01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:46,240 Speaker 6: You know, Jordayane is a very dangerous fighter, and he 1516 01:10:46,360 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 6: also has a knack for finding a way to make 1517 01:10:49,280 --> 01:10:53,040 Speaker 6: adjustments and like coming back and getting a win. But 1518 01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 6: I think this is pretty straightforward sometimes. 1519 01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:58,679 Speaker 2: I think Jordayane, while he does have some flashy stuff 1520 01:11:00,160 --> 01:11:02,080 Speaker 2: and we'll sit and watch a little bit, he can 1521 01:11:02,160 --> 01:11:04,800 Speaker 2: get overly aggressive and overly emotional, which is what you 1522 01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:07,080 Speaker 2: don't want to do against someone like a Shane Burgos. 1523 01:11:07,120 --> 01:11:11,000 Speaker 2: I think Shane Burgos is very consistent, stays pretty composed 1524 01:11:11,040 --> 01:11:13,800 Speaker 2: for the most part, and we saw him in his 1525 01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:16,600 Speaker 2: performance against Billy Q and his last one against a 1526 01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:19,680 Speaker 2: guy who was continue to come fullard. We're throwing a 1527 01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:22,200 Speaker 2: lot of offense at him, but Shane was just kind 1528 01:11:22,240 --> 01:11:25,200 Speaker 2: of picking him apart and throwing some devastating shots, and 1529 01:11:25,240 --> 01:11:26,720 Speaker 2: I think he's gonna be able to do that here 1530 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:29,760 Speaker 2: again against Jordaine, who I think has a lot of 1531 01:11:29,800 --> 01:11:32,599 Speaker 2: potential but isn't quite there yet to beat someone like Shane. 1532 01:11:32,640 --> 01:11:34,040 Speaker 2: So let's go Burgos as well. 1533 01:11:34,080 --> 01:11:37,040 Speaker 6: All right? Next up at Flyway, the streaking Sue Mudargie 1534 01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:40,680 Speaker 6: minus two to forty match Schnell plus two hundred. So 1535 01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:43,880 Speaker 6: Schnell still number eight in the rankings. Just one win 1536 01:11:44,000 --> 01:11:47,639 Speaker 6: for him though since twenty nineteen. Last fight with Brandon 1537 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 6: roy Ball was a fight of the night Brian, despite 1538 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:53,439 Speaker 6: the fact that it lasted just two minutes and fourteen seconds. 1539 01:11:53,800 --> 01:11:56,000 Speaker 6: On the other side, Sue Mudargis won three in a row. 1540 01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:57,880 Speaker 6: He'll try to go from number eleven in the world 1541 01:11:57,960 --> 01:12:00,360 Speaker 6: to the top eight or so at at least he 1542 01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 6: has favored to do so, Brian Petrie, Which way you 1543 01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:03,960 Speaker 6: go in here with the men at one hundred and 1544 01:12:04,040 --> 01:12:04,840 Speaker 6: twenty five pounds. 1545 01:12:05,240 --> 01:12:07,240 Speaker 5: I think I might have been the only person alive 1546 01:12:07,280 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 5: that watched MTV Caged and that's where we first got 1547 01:12:10,439 --> 01:12:13,840 Speaker 5: to see Matt Schnell that he's the Ana boys down there. 1548 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:17,600 Speaker 5: I like Match Snell. My biggest problem Max Snell is 1549 01:12:18,200 --> 01:12:20,439 Speaker 5: is he doesn't fight a lot anymore, and then there's 1550 01:12:20,479 --> 01:12:21,960 Speaker 5: been a little bit of a chin issue. He gets 1551 01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:23,679 Speaker 5: rocked a little bit and suber Majar, he can fucking 1552 01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 5: crack you. Problem is, Matchnell's really well rounded. He's kind 1553 01:12:27,000 --> 01:12:29,560 Speaker 5: of fixed out. You look at the excuse me, the 1554 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:31,559 Speaker 5: Boxerine fight. I'm to go try to pronounce his first names. 1555 01:12:31,560 --> 01:12:33,599 Speaker 5: I already fucked up twice. You look at the box 1556 01:12:33,600 --> 01:12:35,720 Speaker 5: Tree fight. He's a big, powerful guy. Snoell hung in 1557 01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:38,439 Speaker 5: there and and Chin showed out. His boxing looked pretty good. 1558 01:12:39,360 --> 01:12:40,920 Speaker 5: You know he's in Texas now. I think he runs 1559 01:12:40,960 --> 01:12:42,559 Speaker 5: his own camp, which kind of throws me a little bit. 1560 01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:42,800 Speaker 6: Pauls. 1561 01:12:42,840 --> 01:12:45,320 Speaker 5: But he's doing MMA a long time that I think 1562 01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:48,240 Speaker 5: it's gonna be okay. But Sue Majari's loss has come 1563 01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:50,759 Speaker 5: by submission. Mat Chanel has a great triangle, he's active, 1564 01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:52,479 Speaker 5: office back, he's got a great arm bar. And you're 1565 01:12:52,520 --> 01:12:55,280 Speaker 5: giving me two to one for the former MTV star. 1566 01:12:55,439 --> 01:12:58,640 Speaker 5: Give me the dog here, baby, Max Snell wrapping up 1567 01:12:58,640 --> 01:12:59,280 Speaker 5: with a submission. 1568 01:12:59,360 --> 01:12:59,720 Speaker 2: I like it. 1569 01:13:00,280 --> 01:13:02,680 Speaker 6: Big spot for Matt Chanell can flow, especially given the 1570 01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:04,920 Speaker 6: way his last fight went. He dealt with the loss 1571 01:13:04,960 --> 01:13:07,400 Speaker 6: of his mother and just kind of went in there 1572 01:13:07,479 --> 01:13:10,720 Speaker 6: with a reckless abandon that that obviously did not behoove him. 1573 01:13:10,720 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 6: Your thoughts on Schnell here seemed like you were nodding 1574 01:13:13,240 --> 01:13:15,920 Speaker 6: at least during some of that Petrie analysis there. 1575 01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:20,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that is exactly where Suma Dargie is 1576 01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:24,920 Speaker 2: most susceptible on the ground. I mean you could even 1577 01:13:25,000 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 2: say he's just weak on the ground. I mean he 1578 01:13:27,200 --> 01:13:29,600 Speaker 2: makes some big time mistakes, and if he gives up 1579 01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:32,559 Speaker 2: position against someone like Matt Schnell, I think that's where 1580 01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:33,960 Speaker 2: Schnell can really expose him. 1581 01:13:34,000 --> 01:13:37,519 Speaker 6: So that's the pick I wanted to go with as well. 1582 01:13:38,479 --> 01:13:40,280 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it's a smart one. Super 1583 01:13:40,360 --> 01:13:43,479 Speaker 2: Dargy is very dangerous on the feet, and sometimes Matt Schnell, 1584 01:13:44,400 --> 01:13:46,080 Speaker 2: you know, could sit there and watch his work and 1585 01:13:46,160 --> 01:13:48,120 Speaker 2: get caught. That's what I'm most concerned with. But I 1586 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:51,479 Speaker 2: think there's enough value there to put money on Schnell. 1587 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 5: There you go. 1588 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,559 Speaker 6: Yeah, by the way, you started talking about jiu jitsu 1589 01:13:56,680 --> 01:13:59,120 Speaker 6: and Texas, and it got me thinking about our matchmaker. 1590 01:13:59,200 --> 01:14:01,680 Speaker 6: Mick Maynard, by the way, said to his two daughters like, hey, 1591 01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:04,599 Speaker 6: you know mix a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt, Henzo 1592 01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:06,320 Speaker 6: Gracie black belt. He said, hey, you know, you guys, 1593 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:08,479 Speaker 6: become a blue belt, I'll buy your car. You know oo. 1594 01:14:08,960 --> 01:14:11,479 Speaker 6: One of his daughters is a blue belt, the other 1595 01:14:11,560 --> 01:14:17,120 Speaker 6: one saving for an automobile. Ah ah, right and well 1596 01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:20,280 Speaker 6: for the wait Buslam. Salakov minus one sixty five the 1597 01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:23,800 Speaker 6: leech Lee Jinglyong plus one forty So the leech has 1598 01:14:23,920 --> 01:14:27,200 Speaker 6: not fought since that submission loss to kamzat Chimaia that 1599 01:14:27,320 --> 01:14:29,559 Speaker 6: was more than eight months ago. He is now training 1600 01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:31,719 Speaker 6: in South Florida, working with my guys at the Institute 1601 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:34,160 Speaker 6: of Human Performance on the strength and conditioning side, on 1602 01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:36,320 Speaker 6: the other side of the King of Kung Fu. Salakov 1603 01:14:36,680 --> 01:14:38,439 Speaker 6: has won five in a row. Bride, but we haven't 1604 01:14:38,439 --> 01:14:40,400 Speaker 6: seen this guy in a long time. Hasn't competed in 1605 01:14:40,520 --> 01:14:44,120 Speaker 6: more than a year. Francisco Trinaldo. His last victim last 1606 01:14:44,200 --> 01:14:46,840 Speaker 6: June was to face Michelle Padeda in January, but he 1607 01:14:46,960 --> 01:14:49,200 Speaker 6: was reportedly forced to pull out, which has been a 1608 01:14:49,280 --> 01:14:52,960 Speaker 6: recurring theme in his UFC career. Salakov on rank Jingleong 1609 01:14:53,360 --> 01:14:55,639 Speaker 6: number fourteen in the world. Who wins, Brian. 1610 01:14:56,240 --> 01:14:59,479 Speaker 5: I like Salakov's style. I think it's flashy. His kicks 1611 01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:02,200 Speaker 5: are really not ice is striking is good. As Cardio 1612 01:15:02,720 --> 01:15:04,479 Speaker 5: has been in question at times. I feel like every 1613 01:15:04,520 --> 01:15:07,080 Speaker 5: time he steps up, this guy who's knocking everyone else 1614 01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:09,559 Speaker 5: also not knocking anyone out. But y'all bust have forgot 1615 01:15:09,640 --> 01:15:12,400 Speaker 5: about the leaks. I mean, this dude is nails, and 1616 01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:14,720 Speaker 5: I know what happened to the Chamaya fight. Everyone's gonna 1617 01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:16,720 Speaker 5: ride him off. That's why we're getting plus one forty here. 1618 01:15:17,040 --> 01:15:19,240 Speaker 5: I had this line a little bit closer because we 1619 01:15:19,320 --> 01:15:21,840 Speaker 5: haven't seen Salakov really take this next step up, and 1620 01:15:21,960 --> 01:15:23,640 Speaker 5: Leech can make it ugly. I mean, Leech went in there, 1621 01:15:23,680 --> 01:15:26,160 Speaker 5: he knocked out Santiago Pontsmibio, and he can get in 1622 01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:29,320 Speaker 5: there and he can make it absolutely ugly. I like 1623 01:15:29,360 --> 01:15:31,519 Speaker 5: the leecherre at plus one forty. I'm taking a dog set. 1624 01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:33,560 Speaker 5: I'm actually pretty confident in this. I think, you know, 1625 01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:35,840 Speaker 5: after the first round, the flashy stuff's gonna kind of 1626 01:15:35,880 --> 01:15:37,720 Speaker 5: go away and the Leech is just gonna grind on him. 1627 01:15:37,920 --> 01:15:40,080 Speaker 5: He's big for the weight class as well. He went 1628 01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:42,320 Speaker 5: in Vegas, people right about his training in Vegas. Now 1629 01:15:42,360 --> 01:15:44,240 Speaker 5: he's out in South Florida. He's making on the right 1630 01:15:44,320 --> 01:15:46,360 Speaker 5: moves here. So give me the leach of the dog number. 1631 01:15:46,960 --> 01:15:48,679 Speaker 6: Ken Fully, what do you think about the welcher waste 1632 01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:52,000 Speaker 6: Lee ching liong Muslim Salakov favored to take his number here. 1633 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:56,519 Speaker 2: Well, I'm definitely feeling a little bit more hesitant picking 1634 01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:59,559 Speaker 2: Muslim here now that I heard preppy. I think it's 1635 01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:03,720 Speaker 2: I think it's a good analysis. I think Muslim is. 1636 01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:06,960 Speaker 2: I don't know. I think he's a little bit cleaner 1637 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:08,719 Speaker 2: with some of this stuff. I think he could surprise 1638 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:12,200 Speaker 2: Lead Jingle Leung, But I do agree if it gets nasty. Uh, 1639 01:16:12,960 --> 01:16:15,519 Speaker 2: that's where you know Lee Jing Leung is going to 1640 01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 2: thrive and probably win the fight. But I'm gonna go 1641 01:16:18,439 --> 01:16:19,679 Speaker 2: the other way. I'm gonna go with Muslim. 1642 01:16:20,720 --> 01:16:22,639 Speaker 6: All right, let us get to the co main event 1643 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:27,400 Speaker 6: at strawweight Amanda Lamos minus four twenty five Michelle Waterson 1644 01:16:27,479 --> 01:16:30,559 Speaker 6: plus three forty Ryan. Earlier in the show, we talked 1645 01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:32,840 Speaker 6: about Jacker Manson, who is now fighting your good friend 1646 01:16:32,920 --> 01:16:35,519 Speaker 6: Chris Curtis, who was steadying for Guaran till. Yeah, and 1647 01:16:35,600 --> 01:16:37,600 Speaker 6: I know you were able to hammer Chris Curtis at 1648 01:16:37,640 --> 01:16:41,920 Speaker 6: plus money. Yes, he is now minus one fifty six 1649 01:16:42,080 --> 01:16:44,960 Speaker 6: on my site to take Jacker Manson's ranking in the 1650 01:16:45,080 --> 01:16:48,519 Speaker 6: top six or so. Yeah, So when go ahead, no. 1651 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:50,800 Speaker 5: No, I said, I had to go. I drove the 1652 01:16:50,840 --> 01:16:53,320 Speaker 5: Indiana when they released the lines, it was minus one 1653 01:16:53,439 --> 01:16:55,920 Speaker 5: ten when I left the house. The only book that 1654 01:16:56,040 --> 01:16:58,480 Speaker 5: I had that was available for me Indiana was Caesar's 1655 01:16:58,640 --> 01:17:01,320 Speaker 5: Sports Book, so I download that app got him at 1656 01:17:01,320 --> 01:17:04,439 Speaker 5: plus one forty. Now in Caesars he's minus one forty. 1657 01:17:04,560 --> 01:17:05,839 Speaker 5: Literally completely flipped. 1658 01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:07,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I did. 1659 01:17:07,320 --> 01:17:09,760 Speaker 5: I'm going to hammer him again. I just you know, 1660 01:17:09,880 --> 01:17:11,560 Speaker 5: I just did a little play here to give it 1661 01:17:11,560 --> 01:17:13,400 Speaker 5: that the plus number because I figured it was probably 1662 01:17:13,400 --> 01:17:15,000 Speaker 5: gonna be a pick on me. Jack Harmannson, I think 1663 01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 5: he's ring eighth, but I think it's a really good 1664 01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:18,719 Speaker 5: matchup for Chris. I think Chris is a butcher. 1665 01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:21,160 Speaker 6: I do a lot of people like that matchup for Chris. 1666 01:17:21,280 --> 01:17:24,240 Speaker 6: Seems like most of the bets and the percentage of 1667 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,880 Speaker 6: handle on Chris Curtis. And that brings us to this 1668 01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:28,920 Speaker 6: co main event because I can sit here and say 1669 01:17:29,160 --> 01:17:31,799 Speaker 6: I'm on to Lemosh minus four to twenty five. Michelle Waterson, 1670 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:34,400 Speaker 6: given all of her experience and the fact that she's 1671 01:17:34,439 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 6: in the best shape of her life, shouldn't be plus 1672 01:17:36,240 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 6: three forty, but ultimately nobody's moving that number, right, and 1673 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:41,559 Speaker 6: Michelle is not now all of a sudden plus two 1674 01:17:41,640 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 6: sixty right, So this is where we are right now. 1675 01:17:44,280 --> 01:17:46,479 Speaker 6: It's number ten versus number eleven in the world at 1676 01:17:46,479 --> 01:17:49,080 Speaker 6: one hundred and fifteen pounds. Talk to me, BP, I 1677 01:17:49,120 --> 01:17:51,240 Speaker 6: mean Lemosh was all the rage before she ran into 1678 01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:54,280 Speaker 6: Jessica andraj and what was her first uf the main 1679 01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:57,240 Speaker 6: event that was earlier this year. Your thoughts on Lemosh 1680 01:17:57,760 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 6: prohibitively favored. I would say here against the karate haughty 1681 01:18:01,520 --> 01:18:02,840 Speaker 6: Michelle Watterson. 1682 01:18:03,040 --> 01:18:05,960 Speaker 5: Very wide, very wide line. I have a horrible track 1683 01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,720 Speaker 5: record vetting and picking women's of a man. It's just 1684 01:18:08,840 --> 01:18:12,080 Speaker 5: my achilles heel. Michelle Watterson, you know, the karate hotty 1685 01:18:12,200 --> 01:18:13,920 Speaker 5: she came out, came in the UFC, is a huge star. 1686 01:18:14,880 --> 01:18:16,800 Speaker 5: You know, she's fighting up a weight class. Let's be honest. 1687 01:18:16,800 --> 01:18:18,840 Speaker 5: I mean, if they had one oh five back in 1688 01:18:18,840 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 5: the day, she'd be fighting one oh five. Adam Waite 1689 01:18:21,160 --> 01:18:22,439 Speaker 5: is what she was at was she's known for. But 1690 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:24,559 Speaker 5: she came in with these flashy kids in good striking 1691 01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:26,600 Speaker 5: and then now she's like slowly turned into like a 1692 01:18:27,000 --> 01:18:29,759 Speaker 5: well rounded mixed martial artist. Who likes to go for takedowns. 1693 01:18:29,760 --> 01:18:31,680 Speaker 5: But she's just a little on her size, so I 1694 01:18:31,720 --> 01:18:33,120 Speaker 5: don't know if it really works out for I think 1695 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:35,880 Speaker 5: she's obviously improved and made improvements, but when she gets 1696 01:18:35,920 --> 01:18:38,479 Speaker 5: it there, she's not like lights out submissions. She's kind 1697 01:18:38,520 --> 01:18:40,320 Speaker 5: of confused with me sometimes the way she fights, and 1698 01:18:40,360 --> 01:18:41,920 Speaker 5: she's been off for a little bit over a year. 1699 01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:44,719 Speaker 5: You get Limos. She's coming off that dut against Escon Drodge, 1700 01:18:44,720 --> 01:18:47,120 Speaker 5: which again I'm not saying that disrespectful because Androge is 1701 01:18:47,120 --> 01:18:49,759 Speaker 5: a beast. She went in there and got that standing 1702 01:18:49,840 --> 01:18:52,360 Speaker 5: arm triangle and you know didn't tap. I mean, she 1703 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:55,599 Speaker 5: just you know, got flat lined. But I still believe 1704 01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,240 Speaker 5: in Lemos. She I'm gonna go lemoshowver Waterson just because 1705 01:18:58,240 --> 01:19:00,599 Speaker 5: I don't know how Michelle Watterson's to win this fight. 1706 01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:03,280 Speaker 5: I don't know if she can. She's got out striker, 1707 01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:04,600 Speaker 5: She's not gonna knock her out. I don't know if 1708 01:19:04,640 --> 01:19:07,120 Speaker 5: she can out grapple her. She is in the best 1709 01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:09,400 Speaker 5: shape of life. I saw the some photos got posts 1710 01:19:09,400 --> 01:19:11,360 Speaker 5: I think you'll see or someone on Twitter was supposed 1711 01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:13,760 Speaker 5: to photo. She's ripped, shredded for those fights, and I'm 1712 01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:16,720 Speaker 5: glad she's motivated to come back because there's been other 1713 01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:19,160 Speaker 5: things outside the MMA world that she's been able to do. 1714 01:19:19,920 --> 01:19:21,720 Speaker 5: But I like lemos Here. I like lemos Here. I 1715 01:19:21,720 --> 01:19:23,200 Speaker 5: think she'd be a little more motivated. I think she 1716 01:19:23,280 --> 01:19:25,439 Speaker 5: might be a little embarrassed by how she performed in 1717 01:19:25,520 --> 01:19:27,240 Speaker 5: the first main event. So she'll come out guns of 1718 01:19:27,240 --> 01:19:29,320 Speaker 5: blazing here. Give me Lemos even though Johnny, you're right, 1719 01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:31,920 Speaker 5: way too wide to touch. You're gonna have to dive 1720 01:19:31,960 --> 01:19:32,800 Speaker 5: into props. 1721 01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:37,439 Speaker 6: For this one. Yeah, Wattison, the Karate Haughty is back hot. 1722 01:19:37,560 --> 01:19:40,879 Speaker 6: She's super hot. Can't flow the Karate Haughty, Michelle Wattison. 1723 01:19:42,040 --> 01:19:44,200 Speaker 6: She has dropped three or four but three of her 1724 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:47,440 Speaker 6: last four habit UFC main events. She's had some injuries, 1725 01:19:47,560 --> 01:19:50,640 Speaker 6: extended layoff that dates to May of twenty twenty one. 1726 01:19:51,280 --> 01:19:53,840 Speaker 6: Can't flow amount of lemos a huge bedic favorite here 1727 01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:55,120 Speaker 6: the co main event on ABC. 1728 01:19:56,120 --> 01:19:59,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's probably because you know, she matches up so 1729 01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:03,800 Speaker 2: well against a lot of strikers. Now, as as mister 1730 01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:07,040 Speaker 2: Petrie said, I think that the karate Hotty has turned 1731 01:20:07,080 --> 01:20:10,080 Speaker 2: into kind of the the wrestling hotty, the double leg. 1732 01:20:10,680 --> 01:20:13,800 Speaker 2: Perhaps she gets a lot of takedowns up against the cage, 1733 01:20:13,840 --> 01:20:16,400 Speaker 2: and she's good at you know, landing at Her timing 1734 01:20:16,479 --> 01:20:20,040 Speaker 2: has really really improved. Is she a threat on the ground. 1735 01:20:20,120 --> 01:20:20,599 Speaker 6: Not really. 1736 01:20:20,760 --> 01:20:22,400 Speaker 2: That's not gonna be enough for me to to go 1737 01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:24,640 Speaker 2: the other way, you know, I don't think she's a 1738 01:20:24,760 --> 01:20:27,680 Speaker 2: threat enough submission wise to catch someone like Lamos. And 1739 01:20:27,760 --> 01:20:29,640 Speaker 2: I think she's in that in between zone where she 1740 01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:32,639 Speaker 2: has one of the best sidekicks in MMA, but sometimes 1741 01:20:32,720 --> 01:20:35,760 Speaker 2: doesn't utilize it in the right way all the time 1742 01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:40,719 Speaker 2: consistently throughout her fight. Whereas Lemos, when she gets her timing, 1743 01:20:41,120 --> 01:20:45,160 Speaker 2: watch the f out. She's the absolute assassin. She can 1744 01:20:45,280 --> 01:20:48,719 Speaker 2: time you going backwards, she can attack and move forward 1745 01:20:48,760 --> 01:20:51,920 Speaker 2: and land some great combinations. She attacks the body extremely well. 1746 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:55,600 Speaker 2: Her hands are lightning fast when they're on point. So 1747 01:20:55,920 --> 01:20:59,920 Speaker 2: gimme Lemos, Lemos, Lemos with the with the he O accent. 1748 01:21:00,439 --> 01:21:03,360 Speaker 6: And given the way her main event went with andrage, 1749 01:21:03,439 --> 01:21:06,680 Speaker 6: you know, someone suggested to me earlier today, it's a 1750 01:21:06,760 --> 01:21:08,960 Speaker 6: bad time to be fighting a bad and she. 1751 01:21:09,040 --> 01:21:09,719 Speaker 2: Gonna be pissed. 1752 01:21:10,080 --> 01:21:14,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, all right. Main event this is a true featherweight 1753 01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:18,240 Speaker 6: title eliminator between Brian Ortega minus one fifty five and 1754 01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:21,280 Speaker 6: Yayi Rodriguez, who is plus one thirty five one man 1755 01:21:21,320 --> 01:21:23,920 Speaker 6: will be eliminated here. A lot of fans feel like 1756 01:21:23,960 --> 01:21:25,680 Speaker 6: a win for Yeah year might just earn him that 1757 01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:29,000 Speaker 6: elusive first UFC title shot, But he has thought just 1758 01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:31,639 Speaker 6: once since twenty nineteen. That was a competitive loss, of course, 1759 01:21:31,680 --> 01:21:34,400 Speaker 6: to Max Holloway in a main event in Vegas, November 1760 01:21:34,520 --> 01:21:37,479 Speaker 6: twenty twenty one. Ken Flow, We're gonna leave with you here. 1761 01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:40,320 Speaker 6: What a fight to headline the UFC's first excuse me, 1762 01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:44,400 Speaker 6: third live events on ABC. You go on Ortega or 1763 01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:45,960 Speaker 6: Rodriguez and how do they get it done? 1764 01:21:46,439 --> 01:21:50,080 Speaker 2: Tremendous matchmaking here, U. This is a fight between two 1765 01:21:50,200 --> 01:21:55,680 Speaker 2: guys with similar backgrounds, who do not quit, who have 1766 01:21:56,320 --> 01:22:02,000 Speaker 2: specialties in different areas that very few people do have, 1767 01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:04,560 Speaker 2: you know, And I guess let's go into Ortego with 1768 01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:11,200 Speaker 2: the submissions and Yayear's speed. Every time Yayar strikes every fight, 1769 01:22:11,360 --> 01:22:14,960 Speaker 2: I'm always surprised by how fast he is, Like I'm like, oh, yeah, 1770 01:22:15,080 --> 01:22:16,040 Speaker 2: he's lightning fast. 1771 01:22:16,360 --> 01:22:18,280 Speaker 6: I kind of forgot about that. And then the next fight, 1772 01:22:18,600 --> 01:22:19,920 Speaker 6: Oh yeah he's lightning fast. 1773 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:22,519 Speaker 2: I kind of forgot about it. He is so damn 1774 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 2: fast and nasty. Like every strike he throws. He's either 1775 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 2: trying to break your leg, break your chin, send your 1776 01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:33,120 Speaker 2: head off your shoulders like he's a nasty, nasty prick. 1777 01:22:33,560 --> 01:22:39,000 Speaker 2: And in that fight against Holloway, he showed that he's 1778 01:22:39,120 --> 01:22:41,800 Speaker 2: tough as well. He's game as hell, right, and we've 1779 01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:45,120 Speaker 2: seen that in different instances, and of course with Ordega 1780 01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:49,120 Speaker 2: in his fights, we've seen that this dude is ready 1781 01:22:49,240 --> 01:22:51,720 Speaker 2: to die in the octagon. He's another one of these 1782 01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:56,000 Speaker 2: guys tough as hell. And again, if he gets you 1783 01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:59,040 Speaker 2: in the right position, he's going to put you to 1784 01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:03,080 Speaker 2: sleep or break something. He is very dangerous the submission game, 1785 01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:05,920 Speaker 2: and I think this is where he needs to win 1786 01:23:06,040 --> 01:23:09,080 Speaker 2: that fight. Is he good on the feet, Yes, he is. 1787 01:23:09,240 --> 01:23:13,800 Speaker 2: I just think Yayer made such improvements in that fight 1788 01:23:13,840 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 2: against Holloway, and I imagine has made a lot of 1789 01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,200 Speaker 2: improvement since he's one of those guys that I see 1790 01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:23,639 Speaker 2: consistently getting better, more dangerous, making better decisions all the time. 1791 01:23:24,439 --> 01:23:26,519 Speaker 2: Where he was a little bit more of a raw 1792 01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:29,000 Speaker 2: dude who I thought had a lot of potential, and 1793 01:23:29,080 --> 01:23:32,040 Speaker 2: he has really fulfilled. I think much of his potential 1794 01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:35,120 Speaker 2: still has more to go, but I think his wrestling 1795 01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:37,839 Speaker 2: has made enough improvements where he can thwart those takedowns 1796 01:23:38,040 --> 01:23:42,120 Speaker 2: attempt from Ortega and really punish Ortega on the feet. 1797 01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:45,519 Speaker 2: I don't know if he finishes it, but he's certainly 1798 01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:48,439 Speaker 2: dangerous enough to do it, and or take is dangerous 1799 01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:51,320 Speaker 2: enough on the ground to finish Yair as well. I 1800 01:23:51,520 --> 01:23:55,200 Speaker 2: just think Yayir is streaking at the right time. He's 1801 01:23:55,280 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 2: taking smart fights. He's taking the time off in between 1802 01:23:58,640 --> 01:24:04,560 Speaker 2: fights to come back better, smarter, and let's go with Rodriguez. 1803 01:24:05,439 --> 01:24:08,479 Speaker 6: That was outstanding. I might, even when I'm running, if 1804 01:24:08,479 --> 01:24:10,280 Speaker 6: I listen to this back, I don't usually listen to 1805 01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:12,559 Speaker 6: the show back, I might rewind it for three seconds 1806 01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:14,640 Speaker 6: and listen to that again, because yes, I mean you 1807 01:24:14,840 --> 01:24:17,479 Speaker 6: encapsulated Yayi Rodriguez for me in a way that I've 1808 01:24:17,479 --> 01:24:20,560 Speaker 6: been trying to like. There's just something about when he 1809 01:24:20,720 --> 01:24:23,880 Speaker 6: fights that is is edge of your seat thriller. Uh 1810 01:24:24,120 --> 01:24:26,680 Speaker 6: and I think his speed is a lot of that 1811 01:24:28,080 --> 01:24:32,680 Speaker 6: dance partner. This is amazing fight. Yeah, the city's the man. 1812 01:24:33,040 --> 01:24:35,640 Speaker 6: I think Brian Petrie is going with Yayi Rodriguez. But 1813 01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:38,320 Speaker 6: let us hear his main events election BP gohead. 1814 01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:39,559 Speaker 5: Tell you what tough act to follow? 1815 01:24:39,640 --> 01:24:39,960 Speaker 2: Can he. 1816 01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:42,080 Speaker 3: There? 1817 01:24:42,160 --> 01:24:42,400 Speaker 1: Brother. 1818 01:24:43,000 --> 01:24:46,120 Speaker 5: Uh yeah, listen, this is they're both very similar with 1819 01:24:46,240 --> 01:24:50,040 Speaker 5: their trajectories. They both have Yeah years reached a Frank 1820 01:24:50,080 --> 01:24:52,160 Speaker 5: Yegger mountain top and lost, and then he's not as 1821 01:24:52,200 --> 01:24:54,639 Speaker 5: if active. Then he reached the Max Holloway mountain top 1822 01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:57,200 Speaker 5: and low. But in the Frankie fight where he just 1823 01:24:57,240 --> 01:24:58,840 Speaker 5: looked kind of fish out of on the ground, the 1824 01:24:58,920 --> 01:25:01,000 Speaker 5: Max fight where if you got remember Max was taking 1825 01:25:01,080 --> 01:25:03,680 Speaker 5: him down and he took a lot of damage. That 1826 01:25:03,800 --> 01:25:05,599 Speaker 5: was something my question on that year was how tough 1827 01:25:05,720 --> 01:25:07,880 Speaker 5: is this guy? Yeah, you condition out, but is he tough? 1828 01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:10,080 Speaker 5: And Max's take him down and match has hit him 1829 01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:12,400 Speaker 5: and that was a really fun competitive fight. Brian o'tega, 1830 01:25:12,600 --> 01:25:14,559 Speaker 5: he's had a different trajectory where he's gotten the title 1831 01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:16,640 Speaker 5: shot and he's felt short. So both these guys are 1832 01:25:16,640 --> 01:25:18,560 Speaker 5: falling short and this is such good matchmaking at a 1833 01:25:18,600 --> 01:25:22,240 Speaker 5: perfect time for both of them. Ortega, you're right with 1834 01:25:22,280 --> 01:25:23,840 Speaker 5: the home run Derry coming up. This guy's got the 1835 01:25:23,880 --> 01:25:26,720 Speaker 5: long ball. That long ball is his guillotine, his any 1836 01:25:26,800 --> 01:25:29,120 Speaker 5: kind of tryangle choke. Obviously we saw in the Volkanovski 1837 01:25:29,160 --> 01:25:30,840 Speaker 5: fight with that was deep. You look at all his 1838 01:25:31,400 --> 01:25:33,439 Speaker 5: prior fights as well. He's losing these fights, he was 1839 01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:35,600 Speaker 5: losing them with kind of fight, choked them out. He 1840 01:25:35,880 --> 01:25:38,200 Speaker 5: was in a competitive fight with Clay Guida and then 1841 01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:39,640 Speaker 5: caught him, you know. So it's like, that's what this 1842 01:25:39,720 --> 01:25:42,040 Speaker 5: guy does, and you're giving me five rounds here. That's 1843 01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:43,840 Speaker 5: an interesting look at But I think yah Yea is 1844 01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:45,760 Speaker 5: just on another level right now. You're giving me plus 1845 01:25:45,840 --> 01:25:47,680 Speaker 5: money on a guy who I think is in the 1846 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:51,439 Speaker 5: prime of his life. I think his striking is is crazy. 1847 01:25:51,560 --> 01:25:53,439 Speaker 5: His hands or his feet are just as fast as 1848 01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:56,280 Speaker 5: his hands, which is unbelievable. His powers there for a 1849 01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:58,360 Speaker 5: guy that's pretty lanky and he doesn't look like the 1850 01:25:58,400 --> 01:26:01,040 Speaker 5: most powerful guy. He finds you and it's over. Even 1851 01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:02,680 Speaker 5: though Brian Taga has one of the best chans at 1852 01:26:02,720 --> 01:26:05,720 Speaker 5: forty five, this could be very competitive and interesting and 1853 01:26:06,000 --> 01:26:08,840 Speaker 5: and Brian Otega has necessarily not fought the best game 1854 01:26:08,880 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 5: plans going out there. I mean, he looked great against Zombie, 1855 01:26:11,360 --> 01:26:13,479 Speaker 5: but the clear path to victory here if if I'm 1856 01:26:13,520 --> 01:26:15,840 Speaker 5: in Ortega's corners, let's get this fight to the ground, right, 1857 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:18,120 Speaker 5: I mean, but he doesn't really do that, and so 1858 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:20,200 Speaker 5: I question if his takedowns are that good because his 1859 01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:22,960 Speaker 5: jitsu is that good. But give me ya year here. 1860 01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 5: I think Yayu is gonna win this fight. I think 1861 01:26:24,479 --> 01:26:25,240 Speaker 5: it's gonna be the decision. 1862 01:26:25,280 --> 01:26:26,000 Speaker 6: I agree with Kenny. 1863 01:26:26,040 --> 01:26:28,639 Speaker 5: I don't see it as finished because both guys are nails. 1864 01:26:28,680 --> 01:26:29,559 Speaker 5: But give me yea year at. 1865 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:30,080 Speaker 6: The plus money. 1866 01:26:30,439 --> 01:26:30,599 Speaker 4: Oh. 1867 01:26:30,760 --> 01:26:32,840 Speaker 6: I can't wait to see it. Cannot wait to see it. 1868 01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:36,880 Speaker 6: And we'll see if Yaya Rodriguez can can't produce that 1869 01:26:37,000 --> 01:26:40,000 Speaker 6: next level win and maybe secure a championship opportunity. And 1870 01:26:40,360 --> 01:26:43,040 Speaker 6: I've had the chance to call Yaya Rodriguez fights so 1871 01:26:43,200 --> 01:26:45,160 Speaker 6: sparingly that I'm just kind of holding out hope that 1872 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:48,400 Speaker 6: we actually get to fight day. And one other interesting 1873 01:26:48,439 --> 01:26:50,960 Speaker 6: wrinkle before we let Brian go. I believe the fighters 1874 01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:53,000 Speaker 6: are going to weigh in at eight a m. Eastern time, 1875 01:26:53,080 --> 01:26:56,760 Speaker 6: with a very quick turnaround on Saturday, right, so juxtapost 1876 01:26:56,760 --> 01:26:59,360 Speaker 6: against Singapore where the athletes get a full twenty four 1877 01:26:59,439 --> 01:27:03,040 Speaker 6: hour day and two sleeps. This will be interesting. So 1878 01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:04,800 Speaker 6: we bump up the way in an hour, but it's 1879 01:27:04,800 --> 01:27:07,200 Speaker 6: still for a lot of the athletes, gonna be a 1880 01:27:07,280 --> 01:27:11,320 Speaker 6: minimal recovery window. All right at Brian Petrie MMA for 1881 01:27:11,479 --> 01:27:13,400 Speaker 6: more from Brie, who will have more later in the 1882 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:16,240 Speaker 6: week on the Mma Takes Podcast.

And I have to say Ken Flow, 1891 01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:41,800 Speaker 6: your post fight interview where you talk about finishing fights, right, 1892 01:27:42,680 --> 01:27:46,600 Speaker 6: it really would translate to modern day. Like, I know, 1893 01:27:47,040 --> 01:27:48,719 Speaker 6: people make fun of you for the high pitch voice 1894 01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:50,519 Speaker 6: or whatever, and then we clip it out so it 1895 01:27:50,720 --> 01:27:54,080 Speaker 6: sounds even more feminine, Right, I finish fights, But when 1896 01:27:54,120 --> 01:27:57,160 Speaker 6: you ingest it as its whole clip, it's like you 1897 01:27:57,280 --> 01:27:59,559 Speaker 6: want to see fights finish, right, I'm going to clear 1898 01:27:59,600 --> 01:28:02,880 Speaker 6: out this whole lightweight bracket and it's only gonna be 1899 01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:05,160 Speaker 6: me and fucking Sean Shirk.

No listen, 1903 01:28:15,600 --> 01:28:19,600 Speaker 2: I think that it was coming the other thing. It 1904 01:28:19,720 --> 01:28:22,479 Speaker 2: was coming off the backdrop of Sean Shirk competing against 1905 01:28:22,479 --> 01:28:24,960 Speaker 2: Hermes Franca that night too, So I was like, it 1906 01:28:25,080 --> 01:28:27,240 Speaker 2: went five rounds.

I 1931 01:29:23,640 --> 01:29:24,560 Speaker 6: didn't even know what to do with it. 1932 01:29:24,640 --> 01:29:26,360 Speaker 2: You know, I love that stuff. You put it on 1933 01:29:26,479 --> 01:29:26,880 Speaker 2: the bread. 1934 01:29:27,560 --> 01:29:30,160 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, all right, Cody. 1935 01:29:30,040 --> 01:29:32,599 Speaker 8: And Kenny's like, oh, well, when I put my Cady 1936 01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,960 Speaker 8: away in my nineteen forty seven Cabernet is when I 1937 01:29:36,080 --> 01:29:37,120 Speaker 8: break out the bone Marrow. 1938 01:29:37,320 --> 01:29:39,439 Speaker 2: I'm just a cape man, all right, Sorry, Cody. 1939 01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:41,720 Speaker 8: Guy moves from California, stick at a wine cellar.
