25
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,759

00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:45,480
Speaker 1: collaboration between our j Duncle Gangbang Over at MK and

52
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,959

Speaker 1: you want it all, you can have it, Luke. We've

55
00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: been teasing it for a long time time. Does the

56
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,520
Speaker 1: reveal equal the hype?

57
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 2: I hope, I hope. I've heard good things about the

58
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:08,679
Speaker 2: sales from the what do you want to call a

59
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,519
Speaker 2: quiet soft launch that I guess happened yesterday. It was

60
00:03:11,560 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: un announced. I just wanted to see what would happen,

61
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 2: And apparently everything is flying off the shelves in ways

62
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,640
Speaker 2: we haven't even seen before in a long time from

63
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: the Merch Store. So get them while they're hot, fresh

64
00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 2: off the press. Now is the time so let me

65
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,600
Speaker 2: just say thank you to again r J Duckle Gangbanger,

66
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: and then also average Joe Art and everyone else involved

67
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 2: in this whole process who put it all together and

68
00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 2: got it out. It's live, it's ready go get them.

69
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:40,400
Speaker 2: We're excited. We think everyone who has purchased or will

70
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 2: were pumped for it.

71
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. The collaboration of a century in the making here,

72
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: and it takes time for greatness and this took a

73
00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:49,800
Speaker 1: little bit of time, but it's going to be worth it.

74
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 1: Early sales are hot, Luke, like you mentioned on that

75
00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,120
Speaker 1: soft launch, which would probably be a good way to

76
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:58,480
Speaker 1: describe your wedding night. And also, Luke, as average Joe

77
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 1: has said many times, you know, if people keep buying,

78
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 1: he might keep making and we might keep collaborating. So

79
00:04:03,720 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 1: great to add him to the larger team right there,

80
00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: and thank you as always to our j I believe

81
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,960

00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:13,400

Speaker 1: forth twelve consecutive years for best em A journalists. But

95
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 1: we're up for programming. We're up against Ariel. We'll see

96
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,640
Speaker 1: if the best man wins or the craziest fan base wins.

97
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: That is up to you. Let's do it right off

98
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: the top topic number one, let's react to what's going down.

99
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 1: Maybe we don't have huge expectations for the depth of

100
00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: se PA per view card from Sydney, Australia and the

101
00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: promotions returned to that city for the first time since

102
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen. Luke, who can forget Fabricio Verdom versus Marchine

103
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 1: Taibura in that main event the last time they were

104
00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 1: in Sydney, who could.

105
00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,000
Speaker 2: Oh my god, dude, I forgot they even fought.

106
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:19,280
Speaker 1: Wow, Well, we're doing back this weekend. By the way,

107
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:21,280
Speaker 1: more on that to come. It's Israel, a lot of

108
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:24,359
Speaker 1: Soignia versus Sean Strickland and Luke. What we've been saying

109
00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:27,039
Speaker 1: all the time leading into this is, look, the odds

110
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:29,360
Speaker 1: are wide in this main event. Can Strickland pull the

111
00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: upset herd around the world? But we had said this,

112
00:05:32,200 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: we're here for the press conference, We're here for the Shenanigans,

113
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,680
Speaker 1: We're here for what Sean Strickland as a character brings

114
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:42,160
Speaker 1: to the table. Did Thursday early mornings press conference live

115
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 1: up to those expectations for you?

116
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 2: I mean you would have so, I think so. I

117
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,560
Speaker 2: mean the question is really this, right is did the

118
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:55,000
Speaker 2: fans who like Sean Strickland or wanted at a bare

119
00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,840
Speaker 2: minimum Sean Strickland chaos, did they get out of that

120
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 2: what they wanted? I would say mostly mostly. The thing

121
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: that stood out to me was one is he definitely

122
00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 2: was not the fan favorite, right. I mean, you could

123
00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:11,320
Speaker 2: hear Sean Strickland getting significantly greater applause, and I sort

124
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 2: of wonder if he's like he is. Is Sean Strickland

125
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 2: like the inheritance the the is he from the lineage

126
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:23,280
Speaker 2: of Don Fry right, blue collar kind of guy who

127
00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 2: we fashions himself. Why but you know, beer drinking kind

128
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 2: of says what he wants, you know, that sort of thing.

129
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 2: The fan base seems to love that kind of guy

130
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,720
Speaker 2: and they respond to him in that way. So you

131
00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:38,520
Speaker 2: got to see a lot of that. The one thing

132
00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 2: I will say that I thought did not deliver from

133
00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 2: the press conference as well as today's weigh in, because

134
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,159
Speaker 2: they've already happened there ahead of us in time the

135
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 2: face off. The face off was there was nothing to

136
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 2: it at all. So short of that, I'd say people

137
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 2: more or less got what they wanted from it.

138
00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: Well, let's start off the top of there. The surprise

139
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: for me I even saw John Annick hosting about it

140
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,360
Speaker 1: on social media. How surprised he was. Exactly what you said,

141
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:08,159
Speaker 1: that Australia didn't back the oceanic hero in New Zealand's

142
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:10,559
Speaker 1: Israel out of Sonya, who of course moved there after

143
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: being born in Uh. Well, where's where's out of Sonya from?

144
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:14,360
Speaker 1: Officially is it Nigeria?

145
00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 2: Lup, Yeah, he's sort of Nigerian who's Nigerian by birth

146
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 2: and descent, and then his family moved to New Zealand

147
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 2: when he was young, and.

148
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: I believe you stopped a japan in between. I could

149
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,600
Speaker 1: be wrong, although there's a lot of talk about China

150
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 1: in this regard. But Luke, when it comes to that,

151
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: I want to go throw to some video Mikey Morms

152
00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 1: if you don't mind the the pop Sean Strickland received

153
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,920
Speaker 1: in the press of reaction, it was like Crocodile Dundee

154
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: came home, only it was an American wearing that hat.

155
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 1: Is that a knife? Well, this is all right, let's listen.

156
00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:43,960
Speaker 1: You have a chance to.

157
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 2: Win the world time fucking go.

158
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 3: Fucking god damn, you guys are fucking awesome.

159
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: All right, sorry about that.

160
00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:54,239
Speaker 3: Let's let's get to the question.

161
00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:56,960
Speaker 1: You have a chance to win the world title this weekend.

162
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,720
Speaker 3: But I wonder how much more it would mean to

163
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 3: take it off someone that people can say that one

164
00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:02,080
Speaker 3: of the greatest of all time.

165
00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: Here's the thing about.

166
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 3: The Chinaman, you guys, Oh, no, good, hats off to

167
00:08:07,320 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 3: the fucking Chinaman.

168
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 2: He's a bad motherfucker.

169
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 3: I think we can all agree that he's a bad motherfucker.

170
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,640
Speaker 3: There's no easy way through the Chinaman. But hey, you guys,

171
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 3: I'm up for it. You guys, fucking motivate me. It's

172
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 3: gonna be fucking awesome to bring the belt back this

173
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 3: dage fucking no more painted fucking nails nowhere, dog collars

174
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,440
Speaker 3: per fucking you guys, let's fucking.

175
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: Go, Luke. I want to ask you about this because

176
00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:37,640
Speaker 1: a lot of people saying this is almost in pro

177
00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,520
Speaker 1: wrestling terms, like a baby face turn. I think Strickland,

178
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:44,040
Speaker 1: I don't want to say like geniusly but calculatedly has

179
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: combined his typical cringe persona mixed with the legs he

180
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,679
Speaker 1: shows in being very offensive and the Chinaman is very

181
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,080
Speaker 1: offensive in these parts, Luke. But then he's also adding

182
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:58,040
Speaker 1: in blue collar American, almost a little bit of the

183
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 1: Colby Covington lane. But then in endorsing and embracing Australia.

184
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: I don't know if you saw specifically the interview he

185
00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: did after the face offs at this Morning's commemorative way

186
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 1: in Dude, they're straight up receiving him as a as

187
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: a returning hero. So I want to ask you, why

188
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:18,400
Speaker 1: is there a beef between Atisania and Australia that I

189
00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 1: don't know about? Do they just love white people? Look

190
00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: what's going on here? Yeah.

191
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 2: I mean, here's the thing, It's like, there's definitely got

192
00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 2: to be some kind of contours to the New Zealand

193
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 2: because here's the question. If the fight was in Auckland,

194
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 2: would is he be cheered? I do think he would be,

195
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 2: or at least more cheered than he is in Sydney.

196
00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 2: But you know, you and I over here in Statosnitos,

197
00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 2: I don't understand the contours of the New Zealand Australia

198
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,800
Speaker 2: rivalry slash relationship all that well, so I don't I

199
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 2: don't have anything informed. I don't think to say about that,

200
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 2: but I do wonder to what extent that plays a role.

201
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:58,040
Speaker 2: But it just goes to show you, like, the MMA

202
00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:01,319
Speaker 2: fan base is not homogeneous in the sense that you

203
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,439
Speaker 2: can go to there's Chinese fans, there's Australian fans, New Zealand, Japanese, German,

204
00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 2: blah blah blah. There's this great sort of diversity in

205
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 2: that sense. But within those countries it's all kind of

206
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,320
Speaker 2: the same people. They value the same kinds of thing.

207
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 2: And why would the fans respond to Sean This answer

208
00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 2: is simple. They see more of themselves in him than

209
00:10:22,720 --> 00:10:25,680
Speaker 2: they do in Izzy. They respect Izzy because if you

210
00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 2: then go, oh, who do you like more? Thy might

211
00:10:27,440 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: say Sean or at least you know that's the evidence

212
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,080
Speaker 2: you can gather. But then when you ask, Okay, who's

213
00:10:31,080 --> 00:10:33,480
Speaker 2: gonna win, They're like, yeah, Sean's probably gonna get sparked.

214
00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:36,520
Speaker 2: I mean, they respect what is he has done, but

215
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 2: he's so different, a little bit weird. We should be

216
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 2: honest about that that they just can't quite attach themselves

217
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 2: to him in the way that they can to Sean.

218
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 1: All right, well, this is not an intervention, Luke, this

219
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,440
Speaker 1: is not a setup. This is not putting you on trial.

220
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 1: But I gotta bring this up because like maybe maybe

221
00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,719
Speaker 1: the Australian fans are embracing the like I said, the

222
00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,720
Speaker 1: un dog nature mixed with this blue collar presentation that

223
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: Strickland's mixed with also kind of like a nobs way

224
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,439
Speaker 1: of looking at Izzy. But Luke, I have had a

225
00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,000
Speaker 1: lot of people DM me and be like, BC, please

226
00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,640
Speaker 1: at least ask Luke this question. They said, Luke, this

227
00:11:14,679 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: is collectively from like fifty people. They said, it's okay

228
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 1: if Luke back's laughing. When when when Izzy did the

229
00:11:20,840 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: cringe end word thing, It's okay if Luke's you know,

230
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,760
Speaker 1: defends painting of the nails, Luke. People can live how

231
00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,960
Speaker 1: they want to, but the whole posting a video on

232
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:32,719
Speaker 1: your own channel of you flapping your dog's genitals back

233
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: and forth and making it a big fun thing. It's

234
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,680
Speaker 1: been a big part of Strickland's stance of why is

235
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 1: he actually is cringe? And the people want you to

236
00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:44,559
Speaker 1: fully address are you endorsing this move by Izzy? Are

237
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: you not gonna call it weird ast shit? Where do

238
00:11:46,440 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: you stand on that? Because to them, this crosses the

239
00:11:48,960 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 1: line beyond the normal banter.

240
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,400
Speaker 2: That we're talking. It's it's weird as shit, it's gross,

241
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 2: and it's weird as shit, Like there's I don't know

242
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 2: how I mean. People have been like, oh my god,

243
00:11:57,880 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 2: this guy's out here committing crimes. Well, if you that

244
00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,800
Speaker 2: video to the Auckland Police station, they tell you to

245
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 2: go get the fuck out of the office because there's

246
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 2: nothing they can do with that. But we're not asking

247
00:12:06,960 --> 00:12:11,320
Speaker 2: about whether he's committing crimes. We're asking is this you know, weird, bizarre,

248
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:13,720
Speaker 2: unusual and like I mentioned, kind of just frankly kind

249
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:18,400
Speaker 2: of gross behavior about that there? How could you say otherwise?

250
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:21,080
Speaker 2: How could you say otherwise, like and by the way,

251
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:24,559
Speaker 2: like we're dog owners. It's never even occurred to me

252
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 2: to do that, Like I wouldn't like, you know, dude,

253
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,559
Speaker 2: Barbas is a disgusting I love him, but he's disgusting.

254
00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,120
Speaker 2: He's yeah, little man.

255
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,719
Speaker 1: There's also a difference between what you might do to

256
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:39,520
Speaker 1: Barbos off camera, or if I captured secret video through

257
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,120
Speaker 1: your windows and posted it to defame you and you

258
00:12:42,280 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 1: posting it on your own damn channel. Look, I know

259
00:12:44,679 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 1: it has nothing to do with the fighting keys, and

260
00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 1: I actually love Izzy, but dude, that's weird as ship bright.

261
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:51,719
Speaker 2: That's fine, it's I mean, what do you want to say,

262
00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,400
Speaker 2: it's weird. I'm agreeing with you. I'm not. I'm not

263
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: fighting you at all on this. I mean, I think

264
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,320
Speaker 2: some of the others, like another part too is and

265
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:59,640
Speaker 2: this is just elective. The painting nails, like I don't

266
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 2: want to pay my nails, or the pearl necklace or

267
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 2: all the stuff that he does, that's a little bit unusual,

268
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 2: Like none of those things you ever see me do either.

269
00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:08,520
Speaker 2: Not putting them all on the same level. I'm just

270
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: sort of pointing out he's an eccentric guy who's got

271
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:14,160
Speaker 2: his own kinds of things. Now, granted the video is old.

272
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: He was twenty two years old when he posted. I

273
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: think he's thirty two, thirty three now something like that,

274
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 2: so this is quite some time ago. But yes, I agree,

275
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:28,000
Speaker 2: like it's definitely bizarre, gross and weird. But I would

276
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:30,760
Speaker 2: also say I would also say everyone who has worked

277
00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 2: themselves into a panic about it, yes we can call

278
00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 2: it unsavory, and like, yes, respect your dog's bodily autonomy everyone,

279
00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 2: It's not that hard to do. And then on the

280
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:42,439
Speaker 2: other hand, be like, Okay, I don't think he's out

281
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 2: there like Michael vicking the dogs, you know, shoving their

282
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,679
Speaker 2: face into like a bucket of water. Let's put it

283
00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,560
Speaker 2: in the proper context. Oh no, no, no, weird and gross,

284
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:55,640
Speaker 2: weird and gross. Probably that's about what we can say

285
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:57,040
Speaker 2: about it, right or what am I missing?

286
00:13:57,360 --> 00:13:59,959
Speaker 1: Let's put that BS behind this. We addressed it before

287
00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 1: we get into the the surprising heroes of this press conference,

288
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:07,120
Speaker 1: including Menel Cop and the pleasure maker himself.

289
00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:08,560
Speaker 2: Luke, how did you throw.

290
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:10,040
Speaker 1: The pleasure man?

291
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 2: Excuse me?

292
00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:12,440
Speaker 1: I did want to throw to the video of the

293
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,240
Speaker 1: face off between them and sort of get one final

294
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 1: look back at what we learned from this fight week.

295
00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:20,400
Speaker 1: Let's go to that face off right now of Izzie

296
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:21,000
Speaker 1: and Strickland.

297
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:43,120
Speaker 3: My fucking people, Let's go Stelia, Let's go fucking New Zealand.

298
00:14:43,480 --> 00:14:50,120
Speaker 1: Five fucking people. You're every fucking I don't want the

299
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:53,320
Speaker 1: crims of my baugh on me? Is wash your bands?

300
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,120
Speaker 1: He throw with fight, We're seeing where it had been

301
00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: to say it, I'm a bit How are we start on?

302
00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 2: I kind of diet your dank road?

303
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 4: Now?

304
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:16,320
Speaker 1: Why are you guys?

305
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:24,000
Speaker 2: I'm here? Thank you again. I've already iced this guy, right,

306
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 2: I've already one armed DA team Michael Bisping. You know,

307
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:29,200
Speaker 2: I already know I can beat him. And he kind

308
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:31,080
Speaker 2: of walked in there way too confident and took too

309
00:15:31,080 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 2: many risks. And then, of course, as we know, the

310
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 2: story paid for it. Therein is he again? It could happen.

311
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,680
Speaker 2: Mma is crazy, but it just doesn't look to me

312
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 2: like he's not anything other than ready to rock. I

313
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 2: guess we'll find out tomorrow.

314
00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 1: I have to agree with that, all right. Let's go

315
00:15:46,040 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: to Menel Cop. He is in a featured Flyway bout

316
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: not against Kai Car France, which we expected KKF needed

317
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:54,160
Speaker 1: to pull out, although he did show up in a

318
00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,920
Speaker 1: big way at this press conference. UFC debutante Felipe Dos

319
00:15:58,000 --> 00:16:01,120
Speaker 1: Santos will be in his cross heres Manel Luke should

320
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 1: Manel rebranded himself as Manel cop Killer and come out

321
00:16:04,840 --> 00:16:08,200
Speaker 1: to that iced tea rock and rap crossover song.

322
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:11,200
Speaker 2: Luke Hey Body Body Count was there. They were making

323
00:16:11,240 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 2: some waves in nineteen ninety three. I don't think they weren't,

324
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 2: boy did they?

325
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: This was surprising because like when Izzy was fighting Canon

326
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,760
Speaker 1: Ear that time, at that press conference, it became more

327
00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:24,720
Speaker 1: about Izzy versus Strickland. Surprisingly, this was supposed to be

328
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,360
Speaker 1: about it's he versus Strickland, and then Manel cop and

329
00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:30,040
Speaker 1: Izzy almost came to blows. Let's look back on this moment.

330
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 1: We are here, see nae uh.

331
00:16:36,040 --> 00:16:38,760
Speaker 4: Unfortunately that Kara francis a bitch.

332
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: The fucking bitch.

333
00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 4: Is in front of me, and you are fucking guilty

334
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 4: because Sunday he's gonna make good murder, you know, because

335
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 4: you you.

336
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 1: Fuck come down, Come down, come down.

337
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 4: You're fucking poossy, because oh yeah, you have a three

338
00:16:56,840 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 4: weeks to fight me, your little fucking poossy. Look at you.

339
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:04,159
Speaker 4: You have the charters to come here stage Yes by

340
00:17:04,200 --> 00:17:04,920
Speaker 4: the fucker.

341
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: The fun, motherfucker. What you want? What you want?

342
00:17:10,200 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 2: What you want to what you one? All right?

343
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:17,679
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, shut the fun things, see the fun the

344
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 4: fun down. Shut the fuck do you, little cracker?

345
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 2: Shut down? Give you a breath the fun?

346
00:17:25,000 --> 00:17:26,080
Speaker 1: What the gress?

347
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 4: What set up? See the funk though?

348
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 5: You you are the fuck you are?

349
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 4: Shut your mouth.

350
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 3: Hey, leave a little man alone.

351
00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,919
Speaker 4: I'm okay, I'm okay, I'm on down, I'm okay.

352
00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:44,720
Speaker 2: I'm supposed to be the asshole.

353
00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:46,440
Speaker 1: That's not your job.

354
00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 4: Business with him, your important cartoon addiction.

355
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,639
Speaker 1: Well, well, look, there goes our monasterization for today.

356
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 2: I mean, we're not gonna make a dime off this.

357
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, hopefully no one had their kids in the car

358
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:05,480
Speaker 1: while listening to this live. Dude, I gotta say, Menel

359
00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,800
Speaker 1: cop is coming off as my kind of crazy to

360
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: stand up to the middleweight champ like that.

361
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,960
Speaker 2: Your thoughts look, yeah, and then he had the zinger

362
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:13,840
Speaker 2: for him there at the end. I mean, listen, here's

363
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,159
Speaker 2: the reality, man. How I think he's lost something like

364
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 2: five or six bouts due to cancelation of his opponents

365
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: getting injured or whatever the case. Now he is mad

366
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,199
Speaker 2: at kay Car France because he had a concussion and

367
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:26,960
Speaker 2: thought you can just come back from that in three weeks, which,

368
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 2: of course that's a silly and ridiculous thing to believe.

369
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 2: But at the same time, can you understand the broader

370
00:18:33,359 --> 00:18:37,560
Speaker 2: perspective of Cop that you're you're trying. You can't get

371
00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:39,880
Speaker 2: paid unless you fight, and if your opponents keep falling out?

372
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: I mean, how frustrating must that be? The money you

373
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:43,960
Speaker 2: have to spend on camps, the money you have to

374
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:47,000
Speaker 2: spend traveling, that doesn't you know, it doesn't work out?

375
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:48,800
Speaker 2: Now you have a last minute opponent switch, Like, I

376
00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:53,159
Speaker 2: can understand very much why he's frustrated. Maybe not in

377
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 2: the exact way in which he applied it where he

378
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,000
Speaker 2: was like Buck Black right, but you know Ty toooy

379
00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 2: Bosso is just like sitting there like this. I was like,

380
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:02,919
Speaker 2: We're all you, Ty, We're all.

381
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:05,520
Speaker 1: You, dude. Ty was great in that moment. Even Strickland

382
00:19:05,560 --> 00:19:07,400
Speaker 1: saying hey, is he I'm supposed to be the asshole

383
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,280
Speaker 1: is great, so is. I don't normally support this, but

384
00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 1: Cop throwing the monster water bottle like KKF kind of

385
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 1: spiced it up. I'll say this Cop is coming with

386
00:19:15,800 --> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: almost deviison FIGUREDO type cockiness and demeanor right now to

387
00:19:21,520 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: this division. It does sort of ramp up my want

388
00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 1: to see him and the whole idea of is he

389
00:19:27,040 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: a uh, you know, a title threatned waiting Luke, he

390
00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: had had a good run in Risen. He beat didn't

391
00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,440
Speaker 1: he be Kayasakura for the for the vacant rise in

392
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,400
Speaker 1: bantam weight championship. So he's got like some good war

393
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 1: class experience, has beaten some name fighters in Japan before

394
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 1: coming over. This is gonna raise his profile. I feel

395
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:47,880
Speaker 1: like this was like a little bit of a power move.

396
00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:51,840
Speaker 1: He sort of channeled Jeremy Stevens, Kiesa and Kevin Lee

397
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: all the great sort of press conference moments in the past.

398
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 1: He sort of channeled at all in this moment. Does

399
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 1: this make you like want to cheer for him more?

400
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:01,880
Speaker 1: And I'm cut of all in on the menel cop

401
00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:02,480
Speaker 1: train right now.

402
00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,680
Speaker 2: No, because he seems a bit like a maniac when

403
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 2: he's going after a guy for getting a concussion. I'm

404
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:09,000
Speaker 2: a little bit more of the Max Holloway gentleman of

405
00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,200
Speaker 2: the game kind of dude. Okay, that's right, But in fairness, yeah,

406
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,160
Speaker 2: I will say this, I will say this, He's very

407
00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 2: talented he's a great fighter. He had a bit of

408
00:20:16,840 --> 00:20:19,040
Speaker 2: a slow start in the UFC after fighting in Japan,

409
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:23,000
Speaker 2: but he is now when he fights looking quite good.

410
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 2: He should look good on Saturday Sunday for them. Let's

411
00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 2: see what he can do in this division to shake

412
00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:29,520
Speaker 2: things up. I think the idea that this guy was

413
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 2: gonna come for Japan and be a title contender, folks

414
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,320
Speaker 2: kind of put that by the wayside because he just

415
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:35,359
Speaker 2: hasn't been active enough. But if he can be active enough,

416
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 2: I think that that would be in play.

417
00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and he is on a nice little run coming

418
00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,640
Speaker 1: in here. Twenty nine years old from Angola, represents Portugal

419
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,000
Speaker 1: these days. Three fight win streak, including two by knockout,

420
00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,280
Speaker 1: but not the step up he wanted. We'll see if

421
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,159
Speaker 1: he can continue to make his name. And you know

422
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:54,400
Speaker 1: who else made a name for themselves on Thursday's press conference, Luke,

423
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 1: it was the fact that this card is so weak.

424
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:57,680
Speaker 1: We got a lot of people walking up to the

425
00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,080
Speaker 1: dais that aren't normally there. But this heavyweight out between

426
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 1: local favorite Tyson Pedro and Anton Turcoli uh went in

427
00:21:06,440 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: the UH in the direction of a hardcore pleasure. Let's

428
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 1: let's look back on the on the incident here, Wow

429
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,840
Speaker 1: wow on for Antoncli down there.

430
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,439
Speaker 6: Uh, Tyson seemed very amused yesterday by your nickname the

431
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,359
Speaker 6: pleasure Man. Can you tell us more about the nickname

432
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:26,159
Speaker 6: and what the fans can expect from you on Sunday.

433
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:28,919
Speaker 2: One more time? I didn't hear you. You want me

434
00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:32,960
Speaker 2: to tell me you about my nickname? Yes? The best

435
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 2: way is if you ask Pedro after a fight, or

436
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:44,880
Speaker 2: you ask your wife Tyson your response to that, yeah.

437
00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,600
Speaker 6: After my fought the pleasure min What am I supposed

438
00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:50,479
Speaker 6: to say to the pleasure men?

439
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 2: You're gonna taste the pleasure I'm.

440
00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 6: Gonna tyste the pleasure man. That's what I'm gonna do.

441
00:21:56,040 --> 00:21:58,000
Speaker 6: Come on, cuds, what what am I supposed to do

442
00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:00,680
Speaker 6: with that? We're gonna have a good fight. I would

443
00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:02,200
Speaker 6: love part of the Mondy Go, part of the mind

444
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,440
Speaker 6: last song. So I want to do it in front

445
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:06,840
Speaker 6: of Sydney, but I definitely don't want to tice the

446
00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:07,320
Speaker 6: pleasure man.

447
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,479
Speaker 1: It's just so stupid. I love it.

448
00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,919
Speaker 2: Has this not been between the izzy dog stuff and

449
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:20,640
Speaker 2: then everything else all the way down the line. It's

450
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,400
Speaker 2: been like the dumbest news cycle for a paper view

451
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 2: Sometime now.

452
00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 1: To be fair, UFC press conferences during pay per view

453
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: weeks are usually very dumb, but I'm in on this

454
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:34,040
Speaker 1: type of dumb compared to like, hey, uh Ny Diaz,

455
00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,840
Speaker 1: what what strain are you smoking these days? You know

456
00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: I don't need that, uh luke. In terms of the

457
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 1: pleasure man, when he said ask your mother, was he

458
00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 1: talking about Tyson Pedro's mother or Mike Bone's mother because

459
00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:48,640
Speaker 1: he said the pleasure man the pleasure or yeah, ask

460
00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,720
Speaker 1: your wife. The pleasure man should look at Mike Bone

461
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,720
Speaker 1: and you know, spider Man meme real recognizing real. Mike

462
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:55,800
Speaker 1: Bone has been known to be a little bit of

463
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,040
Speaker 1: a mile high pleasure man himself.

464
00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 2: If you don't, yeah, I mean he's like, well, you

465
00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,720
Speaker 2: know what, maybe he's the Canadian pleasure man. That's what

466
00:23:02,760 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 2: we can call Mike Boner. So he might not be

467
00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:08,399
Speaker 2: Mike Bone does. Mic Bond does not have a wife

468
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:12,399
Speaker 2: that I am aware of, but you know he is, no,

469
00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:15,439
Speaker 2: he's known to Uh, he's a creeper. He'll creep in

470
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:16,720
Speaker 2: your DMS. Don't think you won't.

471
00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: Well, hey, TURCOLI just got my attention. Okay, let's see

472
00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:21,639
Speaker 1: who is pleasuring themselves.

473
00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,240
Speaker 2: Dude, Tyson Pedro was like, Tyson Patrick, what do you

474
00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,720
Speaker 2: want me to do with that? That? That was exactly

475
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:28,240
Speaker 2: what was going through my head, Like, what do you

476
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 2: want him to say?

477
00:23:30,880 --> 00:23:33,480
Speaker 1: Hey, Pedro's got an aggressive chess tat set up. Did

478
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 1: you see him at the commemorative Waiams this morning?

479
00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:38,280
Speaker 2: I think I saw him doing a workout and I

480
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 2: saw some of the tats. From what I remember, they

481
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 2: were very good.

482
00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:43,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, tattoo on tte included. Yeah, I'm a big fan

483
00:23:43,359 --> 00:23:45,200
Speaker 1: of what he's got going on there, Luke. That was

484
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: one press conference we had over the last twenty four hours,

485
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 1: topic number two and of course you're UFC two ninety three. Okay,

486
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,840
Speaker 1: bet picks to come later in the show. We know

487
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:58,679
Speaker 1: you need to back betters who regularly however around the

488
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:01,719
Speaker 1: five hundred marks, So don't let's go to topic too.

489
00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,600
Speaker 1: There was another press conference Thursday. Look, if you didn't

490
00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 1: know it, you do now hashtag re odd season. They

491
00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 1: only mentioned it about forty five thousand times. It's going

492
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:16,880
Speaker 1: down in Saudi. Of course. Later this year in October,

493
00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: Tyson Fury, Francis and Gando the boxing match no world

494
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:24,320
Speaker 1: title at stake. Although Fury was certainly arguing the opportunity

495
00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:28,119
Speaker 1: for Ngano to win the lineal heavyweight championship. We had

496
00:24:28,160 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: a press conference and I gotta tell you, Luke, like

497
00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:35,960
Speaker 1: I will always separate two things associated with this fight. One,

498
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,720
Speaker 1: very happy for Francis he didn't fumble the bag. This

499
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,520
Speaker 1: is dream come true. He'd all this, Mike Tyson training him.

500
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:45,240
Speaker 1: He's fighting the best heavyweight in the world, and it

501
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,360
Speaker 1: was always his dream to be the boxing heavyweight champion.

502
00:24:47,640 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 1: And although it's definitely a circus fight, people are like,

503
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,080
Speaker 1: you know what, let's give him a chance, Let's see

504
00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,800
Speaker 1: what happens. And number two, I will say this night

505
00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: of the fight fight week, the curiosity factor. You're not

506
00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:00,600
Speaker 1: gonna be able to avoid it here. It is what

507
00:25:00,640 --> 00:25:03,760
Speaker 1: it is. It's going to be something. With that said,

508
00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,320
Speaker 1: I was really turned off by a lot of parts

509
00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 1: of this press conference, by a lot of parts of

510
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,840
Speaker 1: Fury's sort of old.

511
00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 2: To be honest with the audience, what Fury is doing

512
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:18,119
Speaker 2: is no pun intended infuriating you.

513
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:21,959
Speaker 1: Yes, So I want to separate almost for a second,

514
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,960
Speaker 1: the other side of it, the Alexander Usik side of it,

515
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 1: the real boxing side of it, which is really pissing

516
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:30,679
Speaker 1: off purists like me, but separate from that, Luke, I

517
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:34,360
Speaker 1: don't know Tyson Fury coming in extremely overweight, just kind

518
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,600
Speaker 1: of doing his like shtick of what I want to do.

519
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:41,679
Speaker 1: Can we do have sound of Fury talking about fighting

520
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,600
Speaker 1: in Ghanu beyond this boxing match, and I want to

521
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:46,840
Speaker 1: throw to that and just sort of react to where

522
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:48,880
Speaker 1: we're at when it comes to this matchup right here

523
00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 1: in Tyson Fury's mind, go for it, Mikey.

524
00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:54,000
Speaker 2: Whoever's the best on the night will win the fight.

525
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:55,600
Speaker 2: That's it.

526
00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,440
Speaker 5: Work on in boxing, in boxing, because in fighting I

527
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,920
Speaker 5: think you have very limited in general.

528
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:06,800
Speaker 2: Not fight him because I think I can beat limited.

529
00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:07,679
Speaker 1: I would kick your.

530
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:08,919
Speaker 2: Ass in a cage, no problem.

531
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 5: No you can, dare you can, but.

532
00:26:13,280 --> 00:26:18,080
Speaker 2: Just focus on I'll beat you in the r and

533
00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,640
Speaker 2: then well see after I'll beat you up, boction. I'll

534
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,520
Speaker 2: beat you in a cage, no problem, No bro, no problem,

535
00:26:25,920 --> 00:26:29,040
Speaker 2: focus focus on no problem right now, that's not what

536
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:29,400
Speaker 2: you say.

537
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 1: And I'll beat him in a cage fight, no two

538
00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:37,520
Speaker 1: ways about it. Look, I'm getting tired of the stick,

539
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,800
Speaker 1: and I guess I can't separate it from the other

540
00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:42,520
Speaker 1: half of it, which is that he already should have

541
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:46,040
Speaker 1: fought Alexandre Usik for the undisputed first four belt heavyweight

542
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 1: championship in this modern history between two unbeaten, all time

543
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 1: great heavyweights, trying to figure out once and for all

544
00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:57,119
Speaker 1: who's the face of this everyweight era? Who is you know,

545
00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,159
Speaker 1: stamped for all time Hall of fame, extreme great in

546
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: this upper room, maybe even top ten at heavyweight for

547
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: the winner if they clean out the rest of this era.

548
00:27:05,040 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 1: And not only is this fight not happening now, it

549
00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:13,199
Speaker 1: may not happen ever, based on the comments that Tyson

550
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:16,920
Speaker 1: Fury gave to media members during an extended red carpet

551
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: sequence which annoyingly ran like two hours before they finally

552
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,679
Speaker 1: did sit down and talk, and then really flooded us

553
00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,520
Speaker 1: with riad season propaganda, which I guess to a certain

554
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,280
Speaker 1: degree we'd have to deal with due to the fact

555
00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:28,800
Speaker 1: that that's where the money is right now. But the

556
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:34,159
Speaker 1: quote in question is this talking Tyson Fury talking to

557
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:37,520
Speaker 1: fight Hub TV. He was asked if Alexander Usik's undisputed

558
00:27:37,560 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 1: fight is no longer his priority, and his quote was,

559
00:27:40,320 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: has it ever been my priority? Did I ever say

560
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 1: I want it undisputed? It's always been some other little

561
00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:50,399
Speaker 1: bitches dream. If he takes a small percentage, meaning Usik,

562
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,520
Speaker 1: we might make it happen. But if he wants a

563
00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: large bag, I'm gonna say no, thank you. I think

564
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:56,719
Speaker 1: in Ghana is going to be a tougher challenge than

565
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 1: these other guys. These other guys are just boxers, and

566
00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: Ghanu is more than that. Look like, how the hell

567
00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 1: are we supposed to react to that? And how are

568
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:11,000
Speaker 1: we supposed to separate the whole side of the road

569
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 1: element to Fury and Gona, which I just admitted fight night,

570
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: We're gonna watch it, We're gonna be intrigued, but separate

571
00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,639
Speaker 1: that from the realities that Tyson Fury doesn't want anything

572
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 1: to do with his actual legacy at the moment. And

573
00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 1: I'm being really rare real about that, and it's disappointing

574
00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:24,840
Speaker 1: as all hell.

575
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,919
Speaker 2: You know what's funny is we all thought that it

576
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:33,200
Speaker 2: was who's the my brain isn't working right, the little

577
00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:36,560
Speaker 2: brother who was on Love Island, Tommy Fury, Tommy Feury,

578
00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,959
Speaker 2: excuse me. We all thought that Tommy Fury was the

579
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:43,840
Speaker 2: one who was kind of chasing after what Tyson Fury had.

580
00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:47,000
Speaker 2: But it looks like it's actually the opposite that Tyson

581
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:49,880
Speaker 2: Fury is chasing after what Tommy Fury has. But what

582
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:53,960
Speaker 2: I mean by that is, if you're so uninterested in

583
00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:56,680
Speaker 2: competing against Usik. And then he also dismissed the notion

584
00:28:56,760 --> 00:28:59,280
Speaker 2: of fighting Joshua and really anybody else that would have

585
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,320
Speaker 2: been a you know, a substantive, genuine boxing contest. The

586
00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:05,719
Speaker 2: only names he said he was interested in were Tyson

587
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:08,200
Speaker 2: Fury and John Jones. Now, of course, Tyson says lots

588
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 2: of things and then backs out of them. But here's

589
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:12,240
Speaker 2: the point I'm trying to make BC. I think Tyson

590
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 2: and maybe other boxers too, have realized that there is

591
00:29:15,640 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 2: now a very clear market that has been developed that

592
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 2: you saw through this sort of YouTube boxing, whatever phenomenon

593
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 2: you want to give that a name to, where you know,

594
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 2: the premium of skill is just not very high, at

595
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,440
Speaker 2: least in one or sometimes both directions, but at least

596
00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:35,360
Speaker 2: in one, and it doesn't really matter to the audience

597
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 2: who pays for it. It is still a gigantic audience. It

598
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,880
Speaker 2: is still gigantic paydays, and I think he's sort of realized, well, geez,

599
00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:43,800
Speaker 2: I can take advantage of that. Now. Of course, he

600
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 2: had to build up his name in order to get

601
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,880
Speaker 2: here and take role boxing fights, and the Wilder trilogy

602
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 2: was great. I mean, he's a phenomenal talent. I still

603
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:52,040
Speaker 2: think he would be usick if they thought. But the

604
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:53,760
Speaker 2: one I'm trying to make here BC is it is

605
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,200
Speaker 2: very interesting to me that he has moved closer to

606
00:29:56,200 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 2: Tommy more so than Tommy moving closer to him in

607
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 2: the way in which he is pursuing professional opportunities. He

608
00:30:03,720 --> 00:30:07,320
Speaker 2: just seems like, do I think he's afraid of fear?

609
00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,360
Speaker 2: Excuse me of usick? I really don't. I don't think

610
00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 2: he's that, But I think he's deeply uninterested in it

611
00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 2: because it's a much easier way to make a much

612
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,760
Speaker 2: bigger paycheck, and he doesn't really care if people like, oh,

613
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,120
Speaker 2: how am I going to be remembered? He doesn't seem

614
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:23,640
Speaker 2: to be bothered by it. As long as you're not,

615
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 2: this is a viable path, actually.

616
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:27,280
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't have to go through the big

617
00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: rant that I always do about why historically it's so

618
00:30:30,040 --> 00:30:33,600
Speaker 1: important for Fury to handle his business like this is

619
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:35,760
Speaker 1: what he's been building for since his comeback, so I

620
00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: won't repeat that. But when you are filling our ear

621
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 1: holes with the nonsense of you know, I'll fight you

622
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 1: in the cage too, you know what I mean, like

623
00:30:42,840 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: all this bs and now when they asked him like

624
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:46,960
Speaker 1: he referenced, you know when Stephen A. Smith on that

625
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 1: ESPN interview yesterday asked him about who he wants moving forward.

626
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,760
Speaker 1: First of all, Stephen A. Smith never even said Usick's

627
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,640
Speaker 1: name out even know if he knows Usick to be fair, Luke,

628
00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:56,320
Speaker 1: but to be fair on this, you know when your

629
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,320
Speaker 1: response is John Jones, Well, first of all, you know

630
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,680
Speaker 1: Dannis told us many times, Luke, they don't do gimmick

631
00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: fights like that in the UFC. But number two, now

632
00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:05,600
Speaker 1: what I was only talked about because Data was trying

633
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,360
Speaker 1: to f over and gone. But number three, if you're

634
00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,040
Speaker 1: only about the money now and the easy money and

635
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,040
Speaker 1: the big events, and you have a reality show now

636
00:31:14,040 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 1: and you know, making generational wealth, I'd almost rather him

637
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:18,480
Speaker 1: be honest about that upfront, just tell us, or maybe

638
00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:20,760
Speaker 1: he is, Luke. The problem is every time he speaks,

639
00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,920
Speaker 1: he's always in and out of this stick and routine

640
00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,640
Speaker 1: where it's so the truths, the all are nothing are

641
00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 1: so polar opposite. It's like today I want to fight

642
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:31,239
Speaker 1: nothing but Joshua Usick and then tomorrow. Those guys are

643
00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:33,040
Speaker 1: bumps and I'll never fight them. So even if you

644
00:31:33,160 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 1: told me that he wants to fight Usick next, and

645
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,000
Speaker 1: he will, that this is all more about public negotiation

646
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:42,640
Speaker 1: and forcing us to Usik to take a ridiculously low percentage.

647
00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 1: Even though he has three of four belts and is

648
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:48,320
Speaker 1: undefeated at the moment, it's still within the grounds of

649
00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:51,120
Speaker 1: his rights to a certain degree. But I'm not joking

650
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 1: around what I tweeted out when I after I read

651
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:54,640
Speaker 1: that quote and after I heard him say I want

652
00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:58,080
Speaker 1: John Jones next. Remember he only came back, you know,

653
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:00,440
Speaker 1: nine months ago and fought Derek Jasoor for the third

654
00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,920
Speaker 1: time after beating him twice, because he just wanted something

655
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 1: that we thought to keep him busy until Usik was

656
00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:08,960
Speaker 1: fully ready, because remember Usick needed a couple month recovery

657
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 1: period after the second Joshua fight. But because he's not,

658
00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 1: he's basically coming on saying that's not even my dream.

659
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:17,520
Speaker 1: I don't want that shit. WBC should strip him. They

660
00:32:17,560 --> 00:32:19,640
Speaker 1: should strip him right now. And it's not that I

661
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: want to that to be the reason that we don't

662
00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,160
Speaker 1: get this this historic four belt fight, but if you're

663
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 1: not into it for this, then get out. And I know,

664
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,480
Speaker 1: and I already had people respond to me going, all right,

665
00:32:30,560 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 1: b BC, who works for the PBC on the same network.

666
00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,560
Speaker 1: What about Jamal Charlow. He hasn't defended his WBC midway

667
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,000
Speaker 1: title in two years. A couple points connected to that one.

668
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 1: There's no four belt, undisputed historic fight waiting for him

669
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,200
Speaker 1: that we're all waiting on. Two. Jamal Charlo had like

670
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:50,080
Speaker 1: legitimate mental health challenges that he told the WBC about,

671
00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 1: and they made a public announcement that they were going

672
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,360
Speaker 1: to support him and not strip him. I have a

673
00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:58,280
Speaker 1: lot of issues with how these sanctioning bodies work when

674
00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:00,600
Speaker 1: they decide who to strip and who not to. But

675
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:02,720
Speaker 1: in this case, look, I'm gonna be honest. Middleweight's dead.

676
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,400
Speaker 1: There really isn't a huge matchup that Jamal Charl's not

677
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,760
Speaker 1: coming back for. He's also in the process of trying

678
00:33:08,760 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 1: to come back. He's moved his life to Pensacola, Florida.

679
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 1: He's training with Roy Jones at the moment to try

680
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 1: to kind of reinvent himself mentally and physically, and in

681
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 1: recent interviews he did say he's gonna be ready pretty

682
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,880
Speaker 1: soon to come back. But if Tyson Fury is really

683
00:33:20,920 --> 00:33:24,240
Speaker 1: only about WWE and this match, and you know, let's

684
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:26,680
Speaker 1: meet in a four ounce gloves and we'll do a

685
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:28,520
Speaker 1: hybrid fight. If you want to do all that, that's

686
00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:32,000
Speaker 1: your right as a superstar. You've earned that, But you're

687
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:33,760
Speaker 1: not gonna be able to earn the right to say

688
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,280
Speaker 1: that you're one of the best all time or that

689
00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 1: you're the definitive best of this era. And I don't

690
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: even think he deserves right anymore to carry that belt, Luke,

691
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 1: although obviously they're not gonna strip him. Why because, of course,

692
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,120
Speaker 1: the WBC created their own ri Odd Season belt to

693
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,240
Speaker 1: give to the winner of this fight. Luke. Of course

694
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:48,920
Speaker 1: they did right.

695
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 2: I'm calling you know, you know what boxing needs BC

696
00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 2: more belts.

697
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:56,080
Speaker 1: They just don't more ceremonial belts. I mean, they gave

698
00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 1: one to Jake Paul, they'll give one to anybody. But

699
00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: this is bullshit and it should matter. Real boxing should matter. Okay,

700
00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 1: if if, if, right now, could you imagine if Canelo

701
00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:10,239
Speaker 1: or Gervante or any of these stars, we're, like, you

702
00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 1: know what, thinking about not really fighting regular boxing for

703
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:15,399
Speaker 1: a year or a year and a half I'm gonna

704
00:34:15,400 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 1: go do all this other stuff. The same thing would apply,

705
00:34:19,160 --> 00:34:21,200
Speaker 1: the same rules would apply. Are you in or are

706
00:34:21,200 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: you out? Fury? We gave you the one off Tazora

707
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:26,160
Speaker 1: fight that didn't matter, but you did it. Okay, great,

708
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,439
Speaker 1: we gave you this Innghanu fight, hoping okay, he wants

709
00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:31,839
Speaker 1: to make some big money before the Usik fight. I'm

710
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 1: really getting to the point that if he doesn't come

711
00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:36,800
Speaker 1: out and explicitly say Usik's next, then Luke, I'm giving

712
00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:39,239
Speaker 1: up on him. I think he should be stripped. And

713
00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 1: you know, you say, don't take it personal because you're

714
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 1: a fan. I'm a fan of Fury. I'm taking this personal.

715
00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 1: This BS, you're putting on your legacy for you can

716
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 1: do reality shows for the rest of your life after boxing.

717
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:52,360
Speaker 1: Handle your freaking business.

718
00:34:52,560 --> 00:34:58,800
Speaker 2: What about the idea though, that, like, is it okay

719
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,759
Speaker 2: if he didn't have the belt, if they did strip him,

720
00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,479
Speaker 2: It's not like you'd suddenly be happy, right, Like, why

721
00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:07,759
Speaker 2: can't he I'm just playing devil's advocate, of course, but

722
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:10,640
Speaker 2: why can't he just do the things that he wants

723
00:35:10,719 --> 00:35:12,880
Speaker 2: to do, Like if we're gonna cheer and again, I'm

724
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:15,520
Speaker 2: playing Devil's advocate. But if we're gonna cheer Lead Francis

725
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,080
Speaker 2: forgetting the bag, why can't we cheerlead Tyson for getting

726
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 2: the bag?

727
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:21,000
Speaker 1: Okay, but there should be things that apply to that.

728
00:35:21,000 --> 00:35:23,719
Speaker 1: So shouldn't the WBC be saying okay, like you're due

729
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:26,120
Speaker 1: for a mandatory like get it done right? Like shouldn't

730
00:35:26,120 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 1: that be connected to this if you have a title,

731
00:35:30,040 --> 00:35:32,120
Speaker 1: And again, if it's not a situation like Jamal where

732
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 1: you're expressing publicly I need a mental health break. I'm

733
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,880
Speaker 1: going through some stuff. Right If WBC easily could have

734
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,840
Speaker 1: stripped him, Luke Jamal, excuse me, and we wouldn't have

735
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 1: argued against it. We would have said, okay, if you

736
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:45,280
Speaker 1: can't defend it, that's what it is. This is Tyson

737
00:35:45,400 --> 00:35:49,359
Speaker 1: willingly not playing his part right now, willingly. So even

738
00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:52,280
Speaker 1: though I don't want, what would become of that? Meaning

739
00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,760
Speaker 1: you strip Tyson, you put the belt vacant. You probably

740
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,520
Speaker 1: got two donks that you don't want fighting for it,

741
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:00,600
Speaker 1: fighting for it, and then the winner maybe sick, and

742
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:02,880
Speaker 1: then maybe we do get a four belt champion. But

743
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: isn't that how the sport's supposed to work? The thing

744
00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:07,080
Speaker 1: we always complained about in boxing is Well, it's not

745
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:09,319
Speaker 1: the NBA playoffs. You're not guaranteed that the best are

746
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,000
Speaker 1: gonna end up fighting the best in the finals if

747
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:14,960
Speaker 1: they get there. These guys aren't willing to join this turn. Sorry,

748
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,200
Speaker 1: Tyson Fury right now isn't willing to join this tournament.

749
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:19,080
Speaker 1: So why should he be able to wear the belt

750
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:22,240
Speaker 1: that you would represent as a champion within this natural

751
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: tournament of Okay, we have champions who can actually make

752
00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:28,160
Speaker 1: a fight. Now business wise, everybody seems to be on board.

753
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: Make the damn fight. Make the fricking fight. What are

754
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:32,640
Speaker 1: you holding up? What are you waiting out? Uhstic to

755
00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,839
Speaker 1: get a little bit older? Make the fight. We would

756
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 1: favor you. You should win that one.

757
00:36:37,320 --> 00:36:39,920
Speaker 2: Make the fight, I understand.

758
00:36:40,080 --> 00:36:43,160
Speaker 1: I just you're either an entertainer or you're the heavyweight

759
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:44,200
Speaker 1: champion of the world. Which one is it?

760
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:49,000
Speaker 2: Luke like this this market, pre Mayweather McGregor plus YouTube boxing,

761
00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:51,960
Speaker 2: it just didn't exist. And now that it exists and

762
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,919
Speaker 2: fighters like Fury have options. And again, it's not gonna

763
00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 2: be every fighter. Every circumstance is going to be, you know,

764
00:36:56,800 --> 00:36:59,239
Speaker 2: a narrow subset. But for the ones that have it,

765
00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:01,919
Speaker 2: I honestly feel like we might see more and more

766
00:37:01,960 --> 00:37:04,480
Speaker 2: and more of this going forward. You know, we're cheerleading

767
00:37:04,520 --> 00:37:07,200
Speaker 2: Francis because it's you know, because MMA is monopolized and

768
00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:10,840
Speaker 2: it's hard to get a good paycheck. But I wonder

769
00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 2: what might happen in MA if everything opens up and

770
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,640
Speaker 2: guys can start to take this And now MMA guys

771
00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,200
Speaker 2: aren't taking the fights they're supposed to take because they're

772
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 2: out taking boxing contest, whatever the highest bidder might be.

773
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,759
Speaker 2: How we might view this so an interesting turn of

774
00:37:23,760 --> 00:37:26,120
Speaker 2: events now that the market has kind of shifted in boxing.

775
00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,759
Speaker 1: What do you say to Mikey's response in our chat

776
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,840
Speaker 1: here of a Devil's advocate way of looking at it,

777
00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,520
Speaker 1: that hey, it's prize fighting. They're going after the biggest prize.

778
00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:36,880
Speaker 1: And I don't disagree with that. It's your right to

779
00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,080
Speaker 1: go after the biggest prize in any form that you

780
00:37:39,120 --> 00:37:42,399
Speaker 1: can legally pull off. But when did the undisputed four

781
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:45,480
Speaker 1: bell the heavyweight championship of the world not become the

782
00:37:45,480 --> 00:37:48,439
Speaker 1: biggest prize? Luke, you're telling me he can't. This isn't

783
00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,959
Speaker 1: like I gotta take this Usik fight for less money

784
00:37:50,960 --> 00:37:53,680
Speaker 1: when I could be fighting Joe Rogan for one hundred

785
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,520
Speaker 1: million in a curiosity fight. If he fights usick, it

786
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: will be in Saudi Arabia and it will be for

787
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,439
Speaker 1: stupid money. So what's the like, what are we doing?

788
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:03,919
Speaker 2: Well? I mean, here's the part though, like we're they're

789
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,480
Speaker 2: in Saudi Arabia and we're wondering why they're not like

790
00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 2: employing the utmost of sporting standards. It's like, dude, they're

791
00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 2: just sitting here a wash in blood money and you know,

792
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,280
Speaker 2: of course they're not going to adhere to the strictest standards.

793
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 2: The whole thing is just kind of about that. I'm

794
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 2: with you, though, I'm with you. It's like, if you

795
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:28,359
Speaker 2: want to be inside the belt and boxing architecture, then

796
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 2: you can't do shit like this. You've got to make

797
00:38:31,320 --> 00:38:34,600
Speaker 2: make a choice because Floyd Floyd did the whole boxing

798
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 2: architecture thing, called it a day and then came back.

799
00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:39,880
Speaker 2: And you know, you can like the extra shit he

800
00:38:39,920 --> 00:38:43,799
Speaker 2: does or not, but it's it's a it's a compliment,

801
00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:46,759
Speaker 2: so to speak, to the rest of his career, or

802
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 2: it's just an extra bonus or something. This is still

803
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:53,560
Speaker 2: Fury technically, I think in his prime or pretty close

804
00:38:53,640 --> 00:38:56,840
Speaker 2: to it. And so you're like dude, it's just weird

805
00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:58,680
Speaker 2: to give all of that up when you've got something

806
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,560
Speaker 2: else that's available. But if he does doesn't want it,

807
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,839
Speaker 2: we can't make we can't want it for him.

808
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,440
Speaker 1: What I really just want for him is honesty. I

809
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,560
Speaker 1: really just want that first and foremost. Just be honest.

810
00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:09,760
Speaker 1: What are your intentions? What do you really want? Because

811
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: if he was honest, Luke, it would be easier of

812
00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:13,480
Speaker 1: us to just go, okay, well, that's.

813
00:39:13,480 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 2: Just I disagree with that. I think he's being honest.

814
00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 2: That quote you read where he's like, yeah, it wasn't

815
00:39:18,719 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 2: my dream to be unified. Dude, he's telling you he

816
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 2: doesn't really give that much of a fuck. I mean,

817
00:39:23,440 --> 00:39:25,319
Speaker 2: I do I like it or not? Do you like

818
00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 2: it or not? Does the audience like it or not?

819
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:29,840
Speaker 2: Is as a different conversation, But what is what is

820
00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:32,360
Speaker 2: Fury declaring to you. He's declaring to you he doesn't

821
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,479
Speaker 2: really care that much about it. You know, he was saying,

822
00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 2: I'll take the fight with us if he takes a

823
00:39:36,120 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 2: small percentage. He just again, do I think he's afraid

824
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 2: of usik? I do not. I do not believe that,

825
00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:45,600
Speaker 2: But it is very clear he is not interested in

826
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 2: fighting him for one reason or the other. And that's

827
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 2: just the way that it is.

828
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 1: And it's funny you texted me and said, Hey, is

829
00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,280
Speaker 1: there like precedence to this? Is this the most obvious

830
00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 1: sort of duck? If you want to call it? Then

831
00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 1: I hate calling it a duck because do I think

832
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,439
Speaker 1: Fury's afraid of He was like, no, no, I don't,

833
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:03,680
Speaker 1: So I'm not calling it a duck in that regard.

834
00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:06,080
Speaker 1: But the knee jerk reaction from me that I texted

835
00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:07,759
Speaker 1: back to you and everyone would reference would be Lennox

836
00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:10,880
Speaker 1: Lewis and Ridick bow Right recap is they met in

837
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,440
Speaker 1: the eighty eight gold medal game in the Olympics. Lennox

838
00:40:13,520 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 1: Lewis won by knockout. Then when they became pros and

839
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,839
Speaker 1: heavyweight champions, Bo became a star faster right, he beat

840
00:40:19,880 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 1: Evander Holyfield and that all time war. But he wanted

841
00:40:23,239 --> 00:40:27,120
Speaker 1: nothing to do with the mandatory eventual matchup that the

842
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 1: WBC was gonna make him do, which is fight Lennox

843
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 1: Lewis as he was on the way up. So what

844
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 1: did he do? Yeah, he made a bunch of excuses,

845
00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 1: but then he held a public press conference, took a

846
00:40:36,280 --> 00:40:39,520
Speaker 1: garbage Can dropped the WBC belt in it and was like,

847
00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:42,240
Speaker 1: I ain't doing what you're gonna tell me. And while

848
00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:45,160
Speaker 1: his intentions and the way he was presenting it was

849
00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 1: more like, f you, you know, I'm not gonna do it.

850
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do what I want. I almost respected the

851
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: duck because he's telling you on He's basically telling you

852
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:56,879
Speaker 1: I'm dropping the title in the bin. I'd rather give

853
00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,839
Speaker 1: up my championship than fight who you want me to.

854
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:02,839
Speaker 1: Only because we had seen the Olympics and saw him

855
00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 1: get handled by Lennox. We just said, look, what are

856
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,080
Speaker 1: we gonna do. He's ducking him, but at least he's

857
00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:09,560
Speaker 1: being upfront about it. I'd rather that from Tyson. That's

858
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:10,759
Speaker 1: what I'd rather than fair enough.

859
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,320
Speaker 2: He again, if you want to be inside the architecture

860
00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:14,880
Speaker 2: of boxing, than being it. But if you want to

861
00:41:14,880 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 2: be in the sort of I don't know what we have.

862
00:41:17,480 --> 00:41:18,799
Speaker 2: We have to come up with a better name for

863
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 2: this side of boxing because it is a viable, gigantic

864
00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:25,399
Speaker 2: market for the right kinds of guys. You don't get

865
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 2: to be inside of the either you're in the tent,

866
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 2: which is a big one, or you're not and he

867
00:41:30,280 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 2: just doesn't want to be in it. So that's just

868
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:32,839
Speaker 2: where we are.

869
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 1: I want to throw it to the face off that

870
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:36,880
Speaker 1: they did do, Luke, do you have any further takes

871
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 1: beyond the USIK?

872
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 2: I wish? I mean, I mean, Tyson Fury's up there

873
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:46,760
Speaker 2: like Lizzo and has all the confidence in his body

874
00:41:46,800 --> 00:41:49,920
Speaker 2: in the world. Bro, He's got muffin tops more than

875
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:54,359
Speaker 2: your local bakery and and just has like ten out

876
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,960
Speaker 2: of ten in Machi's moo confidence. I wish I had

877
00:41:57,960 --> 00:41:59,279
Speaker 2: that kind of body podcast.

878
00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:01,439
Speaker 1: Can we show the round belly? I mean, look, look,

879
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,680
Speaker 1: he's fought with a big gup before, and he did

880
00:42:03,719 --> 00:42:05,879
Speaker 1: say that this is going to be a twelve week

881
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:08,239
Speaker 1: training camp. He's already started it, and he does have

882
00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 1: George Lockhart, who remember had to run as Connor McGregor's nutritionists,

883
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:14,319
Speaker 1: and a lot of UFC stars ready to help him

884
00:42:14,320 --> 00:42:17,560
Speaker 1: get down. But what what is your take about the

885
00:42:17,719 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 1: actual fight? After hearing them talk and seeing this somewhat

886
00:42:21,360 --> 00:42:24,640
Speaker 1: comedic face off between Bro, he look.

887
00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,640
Speaker 2: At the love handles coming over the belt. I mean,

888
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:31,319
Speaker 2: my man has just been eating Dorito's right, like just

889
00:42:31,320 --> 00:42:34,480
Speaker 2: just all day, dude. He's on that Bomac diet, not

890
00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,040
Speaker 2: the gun charge, but everything else, right, But okay, in

891
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:42,000
Speaker 2: all seriousness, nothing I mean for me to think that

892
00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:44,440
Speaker 2: Francis has a shot. And by the way, people are like, oh,

893
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,479
Speaker 2: Fury's not six ' nine and Francis is six ' four.

894
00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:50,200
Speaker 2: Francis is taller than me, so he's actually six ' five.

895
00:42:50,239 --> 00:42:52,160
Speaker 2: I don't know if Fury actually is six nine.

896
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:53,399
Speaker 1: Of Fury sixty seven.

897
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,399
Speaker 2: I think real, yeah, that sounds more like it. Because

898
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,359
Speaker 2: if I'm six four and Francis, I've stood next to him,

899
00:42:58,680 --> 00:43:00,920
Speaker 2: he's a little bit taller than me, so I actually

900
00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:04,080
Speaker 2: think he's closer to six foot five. But either way, like,

901
00:43:04,120 --> 00:43:05,879
Speaker 2: what do I make of it? Dude, Tyson should still

902
00:43:05,920 --> 00:43:08,160
Speaker 2: mop the floor with him. The only way Tyson would

903
00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:10,920
Speaker 2: lose is if he, you know, is paid to take

904
00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:12,080
Speaker 2: a dive, which of course I don't think is in

905
00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:15,560
Speaker 2: any way gonna happen, but rather or or he's just

906
00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 2: like wildly unprepared for it. But short of that, he should,

907
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:21,240
Speaker 2: I mean, he should Cruz.

908
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:24,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, there it is, Luke, there it is.

909
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 2: Are you amazed at his body positivity? I just cannot

910
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 2: I do if? I I mean, I don't look much

911
00:43:29,160 --> 00:43:32,120
Speaker 2: better than that. But if I look like that, dude,

912
00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 2: he be curtains for me, It'd be curtains.

913
00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:37,919
Speaker 1: Yeah. Indeed, indeed, let's move out of topic number three, Luke,

914
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:41,480
Speaker 1: Fight news and announcements. I'm gonna name a couple fights.

915
00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,840
Speaker 1: Give me your honest, instant recap and recall here on

916
00:43:44,880 --> 00:43:49,080
Speaker 1: your excitement level. Middleweight's at UFC two ninety five. Is

917
00:43:49,080 --> 00:43:51,880
Speaker 1: that the December card? Do we know? Where is this? NYC?

918
00:43:53,040 --> 00:43:55,600
Speaker 2: I believe. I'll double check, but I believe that's the

919
00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:56,680
Speaker 2: December card.

920
00:43:56,719 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 1: All right, we have a couple fights from this. How

921
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:01,959
Speaker 1: about this in middleweight Derek Brunson versus Roman Dalidze Luke,

922
00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:06,000
Speaker 1: that's the New York City Madison Square Garden card per Mikey. Yeah,

923
00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:08,000
Speaker 1: and Dalides I believe has a bun in the eleven,

924
00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:10,279
Speaker 1: So congratulations to him, Luke. Do you like this fight?

925
00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:13,359
Speaker 2: I love this fight. Brunson is still kind of hanging

926
00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:14,879
Speaker 2: on to what's left, but still I think a tough

927
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:17,479
Speaker 2: challenge for a lot of middleweights. Dalieds kind of felt

928
00:44:17,480 --> 00:44:20,080
Speaker 2: short of a little bit against Vittoria. Those close, but

929
00:44:20,080 --> 00:44:22,520
Speaker 2: it's still trying to, you know, make that move into

930
00:44:22,520 --> 00:44:24,680
Speaker 2: the next echelon a great test of both directions.

931
00:44:24,920 --> 00:44:27,160
Speaker 1: Do you think Delieds still has what it takes to

932
00:44:27,200 --> 00:44:29,279
Speaker 1: eventually fight for a title or is there still some

933
00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:30,880
Speaker 1: parts of his game that may not He may not

934
00:44:30,920 --> 00:44:31,440
Speaker 1: get there in time.

935
00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:33,680
Speaker 2: It's a great question. You won't know until he fights

936
00:44:33,680 --> 00:44:36,400
Speaker 2: a guy like Brunson. No, remember, like beating Beating Brunson

937
00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:38,160
Speaker 2: is kind of like I'm not like alhw. He's a

938
00:44:38,160 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 2: gate keepers, a journeyman. He's neither of those things. But

939
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 2: he is a good test for someone who wants to

940
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:44,440
Speaker 2: reach the upper limits of that division.

941
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:48,040
Speaker 1: Yes, Matt Schanell versus Steve erseg I believe that's how

942
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:48,520
Speaker 1: you pronounce it.

943
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 2: Also, that's that's a banger. That's a banger. Both those

944
00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:53,680
Speaker 2: guys have high action styles. Matt Chanel I've known for

945
00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:57,080
Speaker 2: a long time, great respect for his technical abilities. I

946
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:59,439
Speaker 2: mean that fight he had against Sumidergy in Long Island.

947
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:00,960
Speaker 2: He's just one of the mos crazy ass fights you're

948
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,520
Speaker 2: ever going to see. So that's they're putting some real

949
00:45:03,560 --> 00:45:05,520
Speaker 2: bangers on this card so far. Happy about that.

950
00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:08,719
Speaker 1: October fourteenth is UFC Vegas eighty one. We have a

951
00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,360
Speaker 1: new main event. It's been promoted up from the early

952
00:45:11,400 --> 00:45:12,960
Speaker 1: parts of the car from another part of the card.

953
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:16,719
Speaker 1: How about sadik Us versus Edson Barbosa as a headliner, Luke,

954
00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:18,960
Speaker 1: we don't expect much of fight nights these days, but

955
00:45:19,239 --> 00:45:20,200
Speaker 1: I really like this fight.

956
00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:22,279
Speaker 2: I too, I love I love the fight. I'm not

957
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,239
Speaker 2: going to talk bad about the fight at all. Like

958
00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:26,840
Speaker 2: just this guy versus this guy, sadeik Usaf I've had,

959
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,080
Speaker 2: you know, I called one of his amateur fights many many,

960
00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 2: many moons ago. He's been a guy out of this area.

961
00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:35,520
Speaker 2: I've seen him, you know, fighting for so long, and

962
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 2: he has such promise, and I still think he hasn't

963
00:45:37,560 --> 00:45:41,239
Speaker 2: really reached his full potential. Barboza still trying to hang

964
00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 2: on to what he's got, but obviously still very very

965
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,719
Speaker 2: difficult to beat if you're not really ready for it.

966
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 2: Wonderful test in both directions. There's a question about whether

967
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 2: that's main event worthy for the UFC. But as a fight,

968
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 2: is it a quality contest? Yes, of course it is.

969
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,279
Speaker 1: Well, if you're going to question whether that is a

970
00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,000
Speaker 1: good enough main event, I have to believe you're going

971
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,440
Speaker 1: to do the same. For October seventh, one week before

972
00:46:01,600 --> 00:46:06,520
Speaker 1: UFC Fight Night in Vegas, Grant Dawson versus Bobby Green.

973
00:46:06,719 --> 00:46:09,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not a main eve. That's not main event worthy.

974
00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,640
Speaker 2: I just I mean, I'll say this as an opener. Yeah,

975
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:16,320
Speaker 2: Bobby Green is a tough out. We all respect him obviously,

976
00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:20,480
Speaker 2: and he you know, he beat Tony Ferguson Grant. Dawson

977
00:46:20,560 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 2: has proven to be one of these Americans who's kind

978
00:46:22,520 --> 00:46:25,920
Speaker 2: of adopted this Dugistani style of wrestling and grappling, and

979
00:46:25,920 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 2: I think it's a tough, competitive contest. Again, it sounds

980
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,360
Speaker 2: like we're bagging on these fights as fights. That's actually

981
00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,799
Speaker 2: the opposite. I'm perfectly. I really like the use of

982
00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:37,680
Speaker 2: Barbosa fight and I like the Dawson Green fight just fine,

983
00:46:38,320 --> 00:46:41,800
Speaker 2: But the roles in which they're occupying on the card,

984
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:44,560
Speaker 2: It's like, if that's your main event, not less so

985
00:46:44,680 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 2: for use of Barbosa, but if Dawson Green is your

986
00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,600
Speaker 2: main event, dude, like what's below it? Like a contender

987
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,520
Speaker 2: series night, Like, I don't even know what you would

988
00:46:52,520 --> 00:46:53,120
Speaker 2: put below that.

989
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:56,719
Speaker 1: You know, I did this rent yesterday, Luke on BTL

990
00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:59,239
Speaker 1: on MMA fighting with Jed Mischu. I feel like I

991
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:00,960
Speaker 1: owed him one, Luke. They saved the day for us

992
00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:04,040
Speaker 1: last week but yes, can we stop bragging every time

993
00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,880
Speaker 1: like O'Malley's the latest Dana White Contender Series fighter to

994
00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:11,160
Speaker 1: win a championship. We're probably about twelve months away where

995
00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,160
Speaker 1: every single fighter on the roster is going to be

996
00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,720
Speaker 1: directly from the Dana White Contender Series managed by Jason

997
00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:18,520
Speaker 1: House and had entered the promotion on a twelve and twelve.

998
00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:20,799
Speaker 1: I think we're getting past the point where it's like, man,

999
00:47:20,880 --> 00:47:23,480
Speaker 1: this great series has done so much to produce our

1000
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:25,960
Speaker 1: next great fighters. It's really becoming the only way you

1001
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 1: can get in the promotion, you know what I'm saying Like.

1002
00:47:27,840 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 2: That, it used to be a place where, like, you know, hey,

1003
00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 2: interesting and potentially elite prospects, like we should be honest.

1004
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:38,600
Speaker 2: When O'Malley was on the Contender Series, it did have

1005
00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:41,279
Speaker 2: a little bit more of that cachet. But now to

1006
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 2: your point, it's just the fucking turnstile through the door. Yeah.

1007
00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:49,360
Speaker 2: So you know, like they're just like, hey, what division

1008
00:47:49,400 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 2: do we need to staff up for the coming year? Oh, middleweight? Yeah,

1009
00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,480
Speaker 2: did you win? Great, here's your contract. Get over here, kid.

1010
00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,360
Speaker 1: Indeed, let's talk about one of my favorite announcers in

1011
00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 1: the UFC thirty nine year old Paul Felder. We have

1012
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:06,560
Speaker 1: not seen him fight since his November twenty twenty split

1013
00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,960
Speaker 1: decision loss to RDA, which came directly after a split

1014
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:14,520
Speaker 1: decision loss to Dan Hooker. Luke he's a fantastic broadcaster,

1015
00:48:14,680 --> 00:48:16,720
Speaker 1: like he's really starting to climb the ranks and become

1016
00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:21,160
Speaker 1: a consistent voice. He's also back in the USADA pool

1017
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:23,880
Speaker 1: at age thirty nine, and he was on the UFC

1018
00:48:23,920 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 1: broadcast last week next to Michael Kisa, who he does

1019
00:48:26,480 --> 00:48:28,920
Speaker 1: a podcast with, and he's basically saying, look like, I

1020
00:48:28,920 --> 00:48:31,520
Speaker 1: don't have plans, there's no one I'm targeting. I'm not

1021
00:48:31,680 --> 00:48:36,439
Speaker 1: actively looking for a date, but I'm also not all

1022
00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:39,520
Speaker 1: of that. What do you think about this potential? There

1023
00:48:39,600 --> 00:48:42,239
Speaker 1: might be something left in the basement for good old

1024
00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:43,200
Speaker 1: Paul Felder right now.

1025
00:48:43,960 --> 00:48:46,279
Speaker 2: My view on this is, first of all, I think

1026
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,719
Speaker 2: he is one of the better commentators that they have.

1027
00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,360
Speaker 2: I think when it's him and Senko together, that's probably

1028
00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:56,520
Speaker 2: one of the better duos. But so I you know,

1029
00:48:56,600 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 2: if he didn't want to come back and just wanted

1030
00:48:58,360 --> 00:49:00,279
Speaker 2: to stick with the broadcasting, I think we'd be richer

1031
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 2: for it. I'll just say this, if he wants to

1032
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:08,040
Speaker 2: come back against like a Jim Miller type. Cool cool.

1033
00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,920
Speaker 2: I think that would make sense. But if he comes

1034
00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:14,880
Speaker 2: back against some like rising Hammer and then just gets pasted,

1035
00:49:16,480 --> 00:49:18,880
Speaker 2: what was the point? You know, you've been off for

1036
00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:22,000
Speaker 2: three years, still active physically, not in that sense, but

1037
00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 2: you know you've not been in the gym training as hard.

1038
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:28,920
Speaker 2: I'm guessing you've not been doing the fight camps obviously,

1039
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:31,160
Speaker 2: like there's been a there's been a drop off at activity.

1040
00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 2: You've not been competing, like, you're not gonna be the

1041
00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,680
Speaker 2: same that you're three years older than you once were.

1042
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:39,319
Speaker 2: Clock is ticking, So there there could be some good

1043
00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:43,759
Speaker 2: matchups for him, but it would be high. It would

1044
00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:46,960
Speaker 2: be highly dependent on the matchmaking itself for me to

1045
00:49:47,000 --> 00:49:48,680
Speaker 2: feel like great about it.

1046
00:49:49,000 --> 00:49:50,759
Speaker 1: All Right, what about this idea that just came to

1047
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:54,920
Speaker 1: my head. Eddie Alpharez is a free agent. How about

1048
00:49:54,920 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 1: an all Philadelphia old guy Warren Hey. If Eddie Alvarez

1049
00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,399
Speaker 1: looks good, maybe we do the Channeler trilogy and pull

1050
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,160
Speaker 1: the old Belatore footage and remind people how great that

1051
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:06,360
Speaker 1: rivalry is. Am I going in the right direction.

1052
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:09,320
Speaker 2: Here, boy, I hadn't even thought of that. That is interesting.

1053
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:16,319
Speaker 1: Hmm right, Well, yeahs, unless they want to meet somewhere else,

1054
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,200
Speaker 1: that's fine. I mean, it'd be more of about just

1055
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,120
Speaker 1: two action guys we really respect. And let's not forget

1056
00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:23,560
Speaker 1: that he's a former UFC champion too, so it's it

1057
00:50:23,560 --> 00:50:25,920
Speaker 1: wouldn't be ridiculous if they offered him another chance to

1058
00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 1: come back, right.

1059
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:28,960
Speaker 2: I gotta say, I think I like that idea. That's

1060
00:50:28,960 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 2: an interesting I had never thought about that. But that's

1061
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 2: a great an all Philly old guy fight. That's that's

1062
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:37,440
Speaker 2: a that's a that's an easy hook for that one.

1063
00:50:37,520 --> 00:50:39,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, all in on that. Oh, let's go to Mike Perry.

1064
00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 1: He was on Irolhiwani's MMA Hour this week, and look,

1065
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:46,319
Speaker 1: before I get into his his comments about his BKFC

1066
00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,960
Speaker 1: future after recently signing a huge deal, and I gotta say,

1067
00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:51,920
Speaker 1: like this has been one of the greatest turns that

1068
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 1: Mike Perry is on right now for like positivity, wholesomeness.

1069
00:50:56,280 --> 00:50:59,200
Speaker 1: He's married to coach Latory, They've got two beautiful children.

1070
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:04,440
Speaker 1: Mike on Aerial show wearing like a shirtless white suit.

1071
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:06,800
Speaker 1: I mean, he looked like, you know, he's enjoying the

1072
00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:11,480
Speaker 1: high life. But Dylan Danis is currently being sued by

1073
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:16,480
Speaker 1: Logan Paul's fiance for the extremely aggressive nature in which

1074
00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,920
Speaker 1: he's been I don't know, clowning her, terrorizing her on

1075
00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:21,200
Speaker 1: social media, using no.

1076
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:23,960
Speaker 2: Call it sexually humiliating her.

1077
00:51:24,480 --> 00:51:27,040
Speaker 1: Yes, I mean it's it's reached the harassment levels. But

1078
00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:30,239
Speaker 1: the lawsuit seems to be aimed at the idea that

1079
00:51:30,360 --> 00:51:34,240
Speaker 1: Dannis may have taken leaked, you know, cell phone photos

1080
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:37,239
Speaker 1: or videos and use that as far as part of

1081
00:51:37,280 --> 00:51:40,480
Speaker 1: his arsenal. Dannis seems to suggest on Twitter Luke that

1082
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:42,640
Speaker 1: this could be really bad, as a lot of people are,

1083
00:51:42,640 --> 00:51:46,120
Speaker 1: and it could jeopardize the fight. Should we get prepared

1084
00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 1: for Mike Perry versus Logan Paul, because that would be

1085
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,600
Speaker 1: a banger, Dude, that'd be so weird. I'd be so

1086
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:52,560
Speaker 1: into it. I mean seriously, here.

1087
00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 2: Dude, God help Logan Paul if he has to fight

1088
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,960
Speaker 2: Mike Perry. I mean, God help him, dude. I would

1089
00:51:58,000 --> 00:52:00,400
Speaker 2: honestly be worried about him. If you know, and away,

1090
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:03,520
Speaker 2: I'm sure the people who lost money in his crypto

1091
00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 2: Ponzis game or whatever it was alleged, whatever it was, uh,

1092
00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:09,640
Speaker 2: would be happy to see that. But I'm just sort

1093
00:52:09,680 --> 00:52:12,440
Speaker 2: of pointing out dude, that you go from Dylan Dannis

1094
00:52:13,040 --> 00:52:18,120
Speaker 2: to bare knuckle hero Mike Perry. Oh, you're fucked, You're fucked.

1095
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:21,319
Speaker 2: Logan Paul is so much bigger, dude, Mike Perry will

1096
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,839
Speaker 2: Mike Perry will decapitate him a.

1097
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,400
Speaker 1: Couple points on that though, we did. I know it's

1098
00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,960
Speaker 1: a different fight, but when he fought, when Logan fought Floyd,

1099
00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,400
Speaker 1: I assumed he would get to capitated, didn't you.

1100
00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:37,080
Speaker 2: He got stolen. It's just that Floyd was way too small.

1101
00:52:38,120 --> 00:52:41,239
Speaker 1: I also get that Floyd, like, let's not forget that,

1102
00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,480
Speaker 1: even the Floyd has done a ton of exhibitions since then,

1103
00:52:43,840 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 1: don't forget his quotes after that Logan Paul fight Miami.

1104
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 2: He was he was humbled, He was humbled.

1105
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 1: He was Yeah, he was almost to the degree of

1106
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,960
Speaker 1: Iden expected to be that hard. And to be fair, Logan,

1107
00:52:53,000 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 1: who is an exceptional athlete, you can see that in WWE.

1108
00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:58,319
Speaker 1: He is big, he is super jacked, and he does

1109
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,359
Speaker 1: seem to have at least a war working handle. You're

1110
00:53:01,360 --> 00:53:03,279
Speaker 1: not as good as Jake, but a working handle on

1111
00:53:03,320 --> 00:53:06,440
Speaker 1: the jab and moving his head a little bit. Well.

1112
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,759
Speaker 1: I can understand favoring Mike Perry, especially when you just

1113
00:53:08,800 --> 00:53:11,040
Speaker 1: did a rock hold who's a big opponent. But that

1114
00:53:11,160 --> 00:53:13,400
Speaker 1: size difference isn't nothing in a boxing match.

1115
00:53:13,280 --> 00:53:18,040
Speaker 2: Right, Uh, the size would be valuable. But like, dude,

1116
00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:21,760
Speaker 2: who did Mike Perry just beat Yeah, he just broke

1117
00:53:21,840 --> 00:53:23,640
Speaker 2: the teeth of Luke Rock I mean he dude, listen

1118
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:24,239
Speaker 2: to what I'm saying.

1119
00:53:24,239 --> 00:53:24,520
Speaker 6: He just.

1120
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:26,520
Speaker 2: Teeth.

1121
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:27,880
Speaker 1: That was bare knuckle.

1122
00:53:27,920 --> 00:53:30,200
Speaker 2: This would be boxing, I know, fair enough, it would

1123
00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:34,200
Speaker 2: be a difference. But at the same time, I mean, okay, BC,

1124
00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:36,920
Speaker 2: you either keep your house or you lose it. Who

1125
00:53:36,960 --> 00:53:37,719
Speaker 2: are you betting on?

1126
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:38,759
Speaker 1: Ohry?

1127
00:53:39,880 --> 00:53:42,680
Speaker 2: This is not hard. This is And then especially if

1128
00:53:42,719 --> 00:53:45,279
Speaker 2: you're Logan Paul, like you're going from It's not like

1129
00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:47,360
Speaker 2: you were having like tough fight to Mike Perry. You

1130
00:53:47,400 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 2: were going from Dylan Dannis. Yeah, I mean the guy

1131
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,600
Speaker 2: getting choked out by bouncers, like this was a very

1132
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:56,520
Speaker 2: winnable fight before, and then all of a sudden, if

1133
00:53:56,600 --> 00:53:59,759
Speaker 2: if it goes to that, it has become orders of

1134
00:54:00,200 --> 00:54:03,440
Speaker 2: magnitude more difficult. So yes, I grant that, you know,

1135
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 2: Floyd kind of overestimated his abilities there or whatever, and

1136
00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:08,920
Speaker 2: Logan is a big, strong kid, he is much They

1137
00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 2: had they did that face off. Remember but Logan is

1138
00:54:11,480 --> 00:54:14,040
Speaker 2: much bigger than than Mike Perry. Do but Mike Perry

1139
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:18,040
Speaker 2: is a junk yard dog. That's a tough fight.

1140
00:54:18,560 --> 00:54:20,920
Speaker 1: They did officially weigh in Mike or have Mike Perry

1141
00:54:20,960 --> 00:54:22,520
Speaker 1: face off with Logan that time at the presser. I

1142
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,680
Speaker 1: think they're almost expecting at this point that Dylan will

1143
00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 1: either pull out or have something happen. So it appears

1144
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,839
Speaker 1: that's contractually that could be happen. But let's tell about

1145
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:33,839
Speaker 1: Mike Perry's real future, luc it's not hyperbole to say

1146
00:54:33,920 --> 00:54:37,000
Speaker 1: he's like the face of BKFC and arguably their like

1147
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:41,479
Speaker 1: biggest star and performer. He headlined their biggest fight card ever,

1148
00:54:41,600 --> 00:54:43,920
Speaker 1: and there's a lot of buzz. Even faced off against

1149
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:46,840
Speaker 1: Connor McGregor, which was just shocking that it even happened

1150
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 1: that night. Well, he says he's got a return in

1151
00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:53,120
Speaker 1: in December. He told Dariel that'll be in Dallas, Texas.

1152
00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:55,840
Speaker 1: It'll be a main event, and he says it's quote

1153
00:54:56,120 --> 00:55:01,040
Speaker 1: going to be bkfc's biggest card ever. Luke Thomas, let's

1154
00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,359
Speaker 1: speculate a little bit. Who could be that opponent, who

1155
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:07,400
Speaker 1: should be? Who would be Are you fired up for this?

1156
00:55:07,520 --> 00:55:09,960
Speaker 1: Because they went big last time. And don't forget they

1157
00:55:10,000 --> 00:55:12,280
Speaker 1: had Eddie Alvarez on the card, they had Chad Mendis

1158
00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:14,680
Speaker 1: on the card. What are you expecting for this big

1159
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:15,840
Speaker 1: announcement that he's teasing.

1160
00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:17,560
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know who the opponent would be,

1161
00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 2: but they're always pulling a rabbit out of their hat.

1162
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,920
Speaker 2: Like you know, if you can like bare knuckle or not.

1163
00:55:22,080 --> 00:55:25,200
Speaker 2: I tend to be more, you know, agnostic on it.

1164
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,439
Speaker 2: I sometimes like it. A lot of times I don't,

1165
00:55:27,960 --> 00:55:29,960
Speaker 2: but whatever, if you can like it or not, they

1166
00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:32,319
Speaker 2: but they usually are real good. I mean, we've talked

1167
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:34,560
Speaker 2: about it, dude. They've stolen market share from like that

1168
00:55:34,640 --> 00:55:37,440
Speaker 2: Bella Tore signing old guys, even PFL signing old guys

1169
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 2: kind of territory. They've gone and just grabbed up that

1170
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:43,200
Speaker 2: portion of the market. So who could it be? I

1171
00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:45,200
Speaker 2: would have to see who's available, who they're talking to.

1172
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,560
Speaker 2: I don't know who that is, but like, do I have.

1173
00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:51,040
Speaker 1: I want to jump in. I want to jump in

1174
00:55:51,080 --> 00:55:52,680
Speaker 1: and say the name that Mikey just typed in our

1175
00:55:52,719 --> 00:55:55,040
Speaker 1: chat that I've been thinking all along. If this is

1176
00:55:55,080 --> 00:55:58,120
Speaker 1: going to be potentially, quote, the biggest card ever which

1177
00:55:58,160 --> 00:56:00,879
Speaker 1: would be bigger than Perry, rock Hold, Page van Zant,

1178
00:56:00,920 --> 00:56:03,000
Speaker 1: and a couple of you know, Pauli Malnache, a couple

1179
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:04,520
Speaker 1: of the big sort of side of the road fights

1180
00:56:04,520 --> 00:56:06,759
Speaker 1: they've had. I don't think that means Eddie Alvaz. I

1181
00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:08,360
Speaker 1: gotta think that means Nadiaz, don't you.

1182
00:56:09,000 --> 00:56:11,120
Speaker 2: So nay Diez is an interesting one, but like for

1183
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:13,319
Speaker 2: a guy who's got all that scar tissue to fight

1184
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 2: in BKFC, that would just be a disastrous idea, especially

1185
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:18,840
Speaker 2: against a big puncher like Mike Perry.

1186
00:56:20,880 --> 00:56:22,920
Speaker 1: They're the same size in terms of the way classes

1187
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:23,480
Speaker 1: they've operated.

1188
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:26,560
Speaker 2: Yes, that's true, that's true. There's there's much more competitive

1189
00:56:28,400 --> 00:56:32,200
Speaker 2: like viability to that matchup. But dude, I mean, here's

1190
00:56:32,200 --> 00:56:33,640
Speaker 2: the thing, Dude, if you're Nate and you just pulled

1191
00:56:33,640 --> 00:56:36,239
Speaker 2: in between fifteen to twenty mili boxing and then you

1192
00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:38,080
Speaker 2: made the whole thing about the guillotine choke and like

1193
00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,160
Speaker 2: it's not a real fight, do you jump right back

1194
00:56:40,160 --> 00:56:42,920
Speaker 2: into another contest where like your scar tissue could be

1195
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:47,240
Speaker 2: you know, messed with, and it's again not a real

1196
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:49,960
Speaker 2: fight in his terms, you know. So it's like, I mean,

1197
00:56:50,000 --> 00:56:52,480
Speaker 2: I'm not saying no because here's the thing, dude, BKFC

1198
00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:54,680
Speaker 2: opens up the pocketbooks, do they not? They come up

1199
00:56:54,680 --> 00:56:57,000
Speaker 2: off their wallet for you. So that's what makes them interesting.

1200
00:56:57,440 --> 00:57:00,479
Speaker 2: But I feel like that would be a huge bill

1201
00:57:00,480 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 2: they'd have to pay to get in.

1202
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:01,600
Speaker 4: Nate.

1203
00:57:01,880 --> 00:57:04,439
Speaker 1: Well, what Dave Feldman said in interviews after that Mike

1204
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:06,680
Speaker 1: Perry supercard the last time was that yes, he had

1205
00:57:06,680 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 1: to sort of mortgage the house to make the card happen,

1206
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:12,080
Speaker 1: but that he said the investments would be right, you know,

1207
00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:14,480
Speaker 1: coming right after that to be able to sign bigger fights.

1208
00:57:14,480 --> 00:57:16,760
Speaker 1: So Mike, he said, the fans in our chat right

1209
00:57:16,800 --> 00:57:18,760
Speaker 1: now are echoing what a lot of people have rumored

1210
00:57:18,760 --> 00:57:19,120
Speaker 1: at the time.

1211
00:57:19,240 --> 00:57:19,920
Speaker 2: Darren Till.

1212
00:57:20,120 --> 00:57:23,000
Speaker 1: What if it's Darren Till? Would that be? Would that

1213
00:57:23,040 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 1: signify like, holy shit, I must buy this and watch.

1214
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,760
Speaker 2: This'd be That'd be good. I'd like that. I'd I'd

1215
00:57:28,760 --> 00:57:30,880
Speaker 2: be siiceed to see that. Yeah mm hmm, yeah, I

1216
00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:32,640
Speaker 2: mean Mike'd be sick one.

1217
00:57:32,800 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 1: Mike Perry's beating the game right now, and I couldn't

1218
00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:37,520
Speaker 1: be happier to Seriously, we also we also could use

1219
00:57:37,600 --> 00:57:40,760
Speaker 1: him as like who in the larger crossover bubble are

1220
00:57:40,800 --> 00:57:44,080
Speaker 1: you hoping could get humbled, Like that's what the Logan

1221
00:57:44,120 --> 00:57:45,800
Speaker 1: Paul fight would be about. People would be like, all right,

1222
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:47,760
Speaker 1: finally these poles get what they have come in, right.

1223
00:57:48,000 --> 00:57:49,720
Speaker 2: Can you imagine if he gets hit with a shot

1224
00:57:49,720 --> 00:57:52,560
Speaker 2: from Mike Perry and then lands like stiffened up, Like

1225
00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:55,440
Speaker 2: there'd be a lot of fight fans who'd be gleeful

1226
00:57:55,560 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 2: about that.

1227
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, indeed, uh, Luke, we've got some old guys returned

1228
00:57:59,800 --> 00:58:01,520
Speaker 1: to the cage. And I want to get your thoughts

1229
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:04,400
Speaker 1: on this. Do you remember that era where the Baron

1230
00:58:04,520 --> 00:58:07,040
Speaker 1: was the pompound king and the greatest band of weight we'd.

1231
00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:09,280
Speaker 2: Ever penn mow as a monsta.

1232
00:58:09,400 --> 00:58:11,400
Speaker 1: And then he lost like fifteen in a row, Luke,

1233
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,240
Speaker 1: before the age of thirty, and we're all like, how

1234
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,800
Speaker 1: did that just happen? So, even though he was not

1235
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:17,800
Speaker 1: going to be on this weekend's game bread card, which

1236
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,320
Speaker 1: was a little bit of a controversy and he said

1237
00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:21,920
Speaker 1: he never signed for it, October seventh, he will be

1238
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:29,080
Speaker 1: fighting at Farah Championships one against Peter uh lydgier Uh

1239
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:30,960
Speaker 1: Is this a good idea or a bad idea for

1240
00:58:31,040 --> 00:58:33,440
Speaker 1: the Baron? And does he speak English enough so I

1241
00:58:33,480 --> 00:58:34,680
Speaker 1: can have him on the show, because he's been one

1242
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:35,600
Speaker 1: of my favorite fighters ever.

1243
00:58:36,080 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 2: I mean, the amount of CTE he must have is

1244
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:42,880
Speaker 2: you know, I mean, am I am I being unfair?

1245
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,680
Speaker 2: I mean the dude's being rocked and knocked out and

1246
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:48,720
Speaker 2: hurt in you know, It's like, dude, at what point

1247
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:52,640
Speaker 2: is enough enough? I guess it's not enough, but it

1248
00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:54,200
Speaker 2: seems to me it certainly is.

1249
00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you or I A Faber told me in

1250
00:58:57,080 --> 00:59:00,600
Speaker 1: twenty seventeen on the CBS Sports State of Combat podcast,

1251
00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:02,280
Speaker 1: Luke or maybe it was called in this Corner then

1252
00:59:02,280 --> 00:59:05,400
Speaker 1: who cares? Nobody listened to it except for the boxing part.

1253
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:10,240
Speaker 1: He said that it was USADA, not CTE or opponents

1254
00:59:10,400 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 1: that caused Barrow's slip from grace.

1255
00:59:13,720 --> 00:59:16,400
Speaker 2: You know, yeah, but that's a different consideration. It's like, Okay,

1256
00:59:16,400 --> 00:59:19,760
Speaker 2: that may have changed the competitive fortunes, but I'm just

1257
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,880
Speaker 2: talking about the amount of trauma. He's the amount of true,

1258
00:59:23,080 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 2: he's been in a gazillion car rex at this point.

1259
00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:27,360
Speaker 1: You're right, You're right. Well, you know who else has Luke?

1260
00:59:27,440 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 1: Quentin Rampage Jackson, and you know he's been talking about

1261
00:59:30,760 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 1: making his one more fight in that UFL league that

1262
00:59:33,360 --> 00:59:35,920
Speaker 1: Frank Meers associated with It looks like it's going to

1263
00:59:35,960 --> 00:59:39,840
Speaker 1: be in December against Darryl Schoonover Shoonover. Let's just call

1264
00:59:39,880 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 1: him what everybody else calls him, Luke titties.

1265
00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:44,800
Speaker 2: Big ass titties.

1266
00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:48,840
Speaker 1: Rampage called Daryl this, of course, back in their Ultimate

1267
00:59:48,880 --> 00:59:52,600
Speaker 1: Fighter days, and here's Rampage's quote on the jazz On podcast.

1268
00:59:52,920 --> 00:59:55,880
Speaker 1: I'll come back and fight grudge matches only I want

1269
00:59:55,880 --> 00:59:58,760
Speaker 1: to fight titties. From the Ultimate Fighter. He just signed

1270
00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,920
Speaker 1: the contract. The way I got Titties to fight was

1271
01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 1: I said, look, if you beat me, I will never

1272
01:00:05,080 --> 01:00:08,560
Speaker 1: call you titties again. He's like, Okay, let's do this, Luke.

1273
01:00:08,600 --> 01:00:10,520
Speaker 1: Did Linda just walk off the show on her final

1274
01:00:10,520 --> 01:00:12,840
Speaker 1: show because we've given her nothing but ridiculous content?

1275
01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:15,320
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean she must be like, I cannot believe

1276
01:00:15,480 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 2: that these two idiots have a show where they talk

1277
01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:22,520
Speaker 2: about other people acting like idiots. We're surprised to Linda,

1278
01:00:22,600 --> 01:00:25,720
Speaker 2: so don't join the club. Yeah. Can you imagine getting

1279
01:00:25,720 --> 01:00:28,400
Speaker 2: called titties on national TV and then it just sticking

1280
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:30,760
Speaker 2: with you for fifteen years? I mean, that's really the

1281
01:00:30,800 --> 01:00:33,120
Speaker 2: hell that this guy's been living through. We're in twenty

1282
01:00:33,160 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 2: twenty three. It's like, Oh, who's that guy he's gonna due.

1283
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:36,640
Speaker 2: They didn't even say Darren schoon Over or whatever. I

1284
01:00:36,680 --> 01:00:38,200
Speaker 2: don't even I don't even know his last name. I

1285
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:42,720
Speaker 2: just know that everyone calls him uh brestases. And that's

1286
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:43,479
Speaker 2: just where we are.

1287
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:45,880
Speaker 1: We have a direct quote from Linda in the control

1288
01:00:45,960 --> 01:00:47,919
Speaker 1: room of I've never felt more at home.

1289
01:00:48,000 --> 01:00:50,720
Speaker 2: She says, all right, I see Linda's also a degenerate.

1290
01:00:50,840 --> 01:00:53,520
Speaker 1: Very good irank you very much, Linda, Luke, you won't

1291
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 1: care about this fight, will you?

1292
01:00:55,040 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 2: No, No, dude. Ever since Rampage, Jackson just kind of

1293
01:00:57,520 --> 01:00:59,480
Speaker 2: belly flopped against fatal or I've been like, wow, man,

1294
01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:00,640
Speaker 2: he's really checked out here.

1295
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 1: Well, I was down on him long before that belly flop.

1296
01:01:02,840 --> 01:01:04,840
Speaker 1: He had a few other fat fights too before that. Hey,

1297
01:01:04,920 --> 01:01:07,280
Speaker 1: let's go to topic three, Luke. This weekend, I believe

1298
01:01:07,320 --> 01:01:11,880
Speaker 1: it's tonight. It is tonight. It's game bread bare knuckle Mma. Yes,

1299
01:01:12,000 --> 01:01:15,080
Speaker 1: I think it's Jacksonville's Uh is this in Jacksonville? I

1300
01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:18,400
Speaker 1: don't you know? Yes, yeah, at the Vicestar Arena. So

1301
01:01:18,440 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 1: here's the deal. It's it's Jorge Masdwel's promotion, of course,

1302
01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:25,000
Speaker 1: but it is full mixed martial arts, but with bare knuckles,

1303
01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:28,160
Speaker 1: and you're getting a heavyweight rematch that we may or

1304
01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 1: may not have wanted between former UFC champions Junior Dosntos

1305
01:01:32,400 --> 01:01:35,880
Speaker 1: and Fabricio ver Doom. I caught up with Junior two

1306
01:01:35,960 --> 01:01:38,160
Speaker 1: weeks ago. You can catch that full interview if that's

1307
01:01:38,200 --> 01:01:41,400
Speaker 1: your flavor, on YouTube dot com slash Morning Combat. Here's

1308
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:45,040
Speaker 1: JDS talking about why he signed up with Jorge here

1309
01:01:45,080 --> 01:01:50,120
Speaker 1: for Game Bread MMA, entering this one under a new banner,

1310
01:01:50,160 --> 01:01:53,120
Speaker 1: of course, the Game Bread Bare Knuckle MMA banner. But

1311
01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,360
Speaker 1: you look like a million dollars? How do you feel?

1312
01:01:56,400 --> 01:01:59,680
Speaker 5: I feel great and I'm doing I'm putting in a

1313
01:01:59,680 --> 01:02:03,000
Speaker 5: great work at ATT, you know. And I feel great

1314
01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:05,160
Speaker 5: about this fight as well. I think it's the most

1315
01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 5: it's it's the fight that makes more sense for me

1316
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:11,640
Speaker 5: to be having right now, you know.

1317
01:02:11,760 --> 01:02:13,640
Speaker 2: And the date is a great date.

1318
01:02:14,480 --> 01:02:18,920
Speaker 5: I'm very excited with everything that gain Grad Promotions are doing.

1319
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:25,120
Speaker 5: You know. They're very serious guys, you know, And that's crazy.

1320
01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:29,920
Speaker 5: But as soon as I moved to America back in

1321
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:33,080
Speaker 5: the day, you know, twenty fifteen, as soon as I

1322
01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:36,200
Speaker 5: was training there on one of the days with George,

1323
01:02:36,680 --> 01:02:39,760
Speaker 5: and then George says a man, one day, you're gonna

1324
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:42,880
Speaker 5: fight for me on my promotion, and I said, man,

1325
01:02:43,000 --> 01:02:45,760
Speaker 5: that's gonna be a pleasure. Let's see. I hope it happens.

1326
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,800
Speaker 5: But you see the power of the words. Today, I'm

1327
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:53,440
Speaker 5: fighting on his promotion and I'm very impressed with everything

1328
01:02:53,480 --> 01:02:57,240
Speaker 5: they're doing. You know the guys that are working hard

1329
01:02:57,360 --> 01:03:01,440
Speaker 5: to make it happen in a fashion way.

1330
01:03:02,240 --> 01:03:05,680
Speaker 1: Well, Luke, they fought a long time ago. It was

1331
01:03:05,760 --> 01:03:10,919
Speaker 1: jds's UFC debut and he not got fabricio for doom Out.

1332
01:03:11,160 --> 01:03:13,680
Speaker 1: And hidden in that quote was the idea of how

1333
01:03:13,720 --> 01:03:15,960
Speaker 1: good he feels. Luke, if you look good, apparently you

1334
01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:19,320
Speaker 1: feel good. Thirty nine year old JDS looks like a

1335
01:03:19,480 --> 01:03:23,520
Speaker 1: brick shit house at the moment, and I went into

1336
01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:26,600
Speaker 1: that with him. You're gonna love his answer, Luke. If

1337
01:03:26,600 --> 01:03:29,160
Speaker 1: you believe that drugs win the drug war, let's listen

1338
01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:34,240
Speaker 1: in on old Junior first and foremost. Brother, you've been

1339
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:37,200
Speaker 1: showing a physique lately that makes you look like you're

1340
01:03:37,240 --> 01:03:39,760
Speaker 1: twenty years old. What the heck's the secret here, sir?

1341
01:03:42,120 --> 01:03:44,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm feeling great. Actually, you know what, I'm putting

1342
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 5: that great work and right now that we're not going

1343
01:03:48,600 --> 01:03:53,520
Speaker 5: through Yu Sada. It's been great because we can like

1344
01:03:53,600 --> 01:03:55,919
Speaker 5: I can take my pre or touts, I can take

1345
01:03:56,240 --> 01:03:59,400
Speaker 5: my burning fed, I can take off the supermans that

1346
01:03:59,480 --> 01:04:03,800
Speaker 5: I I couldn't before, you know. So, uh, it's being great.

1347
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:08,360
Speaker 5: I'm feeling great, I'm eating good and uh, I've always

1348
01:04:08,840 --> 01:04:11,280
Speaker 5: take care of my health. You know, I was always

1349
01:04:11,320 --> 01:04:15,200
Speaker 5: in great shape, you know, and things like that. But

1350
01:04:15,560 --> 01:04:21,120
Speaker 5: right now that we are able to to not having problems,

01:04:51,120 --> 01:04:53,959
Speaker 1: the people what's really happening here. Here's my question to you.

1361
01:04:53,920 --> 01:04:56,920
Speaker 2: Is why was he shouting the entire interview. It was

1362
01:04:57,040 --> 01:04:59,400
Speaker 2: like I was like, dude, the volume's on, you ain't

1363
01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:00,479
Speaker 2: got to do that, all right.

1364
01:05:00,960 --> 01:05:02,680
Speaker 1: I hate to clown him blue because he's such a

1365
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:05,040
Speaker 1: polite man and I do respect him so much, but

1366
01:05:05,080 --> 01:05:07,360
Speaker 1: he's juiced to the girls. And he's like, yeah, I am,

1367
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:08,240
Speaker 1: it's true.

1368
01:05:08,040 --> 01:05:11,880
Speaker 2: Right, he's juice to the Darren schoonovers is really where

1369
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 2: he's juiced. And dude, the reality is the rallity is

1370
01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:20,040
Speaker 2: this who is watching bare Knuckle MMA and is like, guys,

1371
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,560
Speaker 2: I can't watch bare Knuckle MMA unless these fighters are

1372
01:05:23,600 --> 01:05:26,960
Speaker 2: drug tested. That's really that's beyond the pale. If you're

1373
01:05:27,000 --> 01:05:31,320
Speaker 2: watching bare Knuckle MMA, your car has been repossessed, your

1374
01:05:31,400 --> 01:05:36,680
Speaker 2: children have been taken from you, and you like guys

1375
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,000
Speaker 2: doing steroids, which is fine, Like I'm not even against

1376
01:05:39,000 --> 01:05:41,720
Speaker 2: it either, but like you're watching like the most violent

1377
01:05:41,880 --> 01:05:45,480
Speaker 2: version of the most violent sport, just like let it be,

1378
01:05:45,680 --> 01:05:46,040
Speaker 2: Let it be.

1379
01:05:47,040 --> 01:05:51,960
Speaker 1: Yeah. So JDS lost five consecutive fights, all by TKO

1380
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,640
Speaker 1: to end his UFC career in May of twenty twenty two.

1381
01:05:55,080 --> 01:05:57,600
Speaker 1: He's back at age thirty nine for Doom at age

1382
01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:01,640
Speaker 1: forty six, has not fallen into years since that disastroust

1383
01:06:01,680 --> 01:06:04,960
Speaker 1: and to his PFL experiment. But Luke, I'll have to

1384
01:06:05,000 --> 01:06:07,240
Speaker 1: say this, Look, this is a gas station hot dog fight.

1385
01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:10,560
Speaker 1: It's kind of like real. I think bare knuckle MMA

1386
01:06:10,680 --> 01:06:13,160
Speaker 1: is really stupid. I really do, like put the floorance

1387
01:06:13,200 --> 01:06:15,240
Speaker 1: gloves on, like have an MMA rematch, just do it.

1388
01:06:15,760 --> 01:06:17,280
Speaker 1: But I don't have the sound to show it. You

1389
01:06:17,280 --> 01:06:18,800
Speaker 1: can check it in the interview. But I was actually

1390
01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 1: disappointed with JDS on this factor. I talked about how

1391
01:06:21,880 --> 01:06:23,560
Speaker 1: in shape he was, and I talked about that look,

1392
01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:25,800
Speaker 1: you know, like this is a rematch, there's big names.

1393
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:28,320
Speaker 1: People are gonna care to a degree? Are you though

1394
01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:32,600
Speaker 1: auditioning for Francis and Gandu in the first PFL pay

1395
01:06:32,640 --> 01:06:36,240
Speaker 1: per view Luke? His response was no, no, No, I

1396
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:38,600
Speaker 1: just signed you know full time with game Bread. That's

1397
01:06:38,640 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 1: where I fight. There's the sometimes you only get one shot, Luke,

1398
01:06:47,440 --> 01:06:50,760
Speaker 1: there's one shot at one really big bag left for Junior.

1399
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:55,920
Speaker 1: Why would you not be like, yeah, absolutely, Hey Francis,

1400
01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:58,920
Speaker 1: you need an opponent after you're done with Fury. Hey, PFL,

1401
01:06:59,000 --> 01:07:00,480
Speaker 1: I know you got you saw it now, but what

1402
01:07:00,560 --> 01:07:03,320
Speaker 1: could work around this? Call me? Are you really gonna

1403
01:07:03,320 --> 01:07:06,280
Speaker 1: stay loyal to a Joorge over getting the Francis bag?

1404
01:07:06,320 --> 01:07:11,000
Speaker 2: What are you doing? Yeah? Well again, PFL employing Usada

1405
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:15,560
Speaker 2: just an epically unnecessary decision. But uh, I'll say this

1406
01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:17,720
Speaker 2: I've seen those game bred perse reports, like the one

1407
01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:20,120
Speaker 2: for the fight they had in Milwaukee. They put out

1408
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:22,720
Speaker 2: a lot of money, not Francis two million dollars minimum

1409
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 2: guaranteed money, but decent wage, A decent wage.

1410
01:07:27,600 --> 01:07:29,480
Speaker 1: Do you think they're making back enough as a promotion.

1411
01:07:29,560 --> 01:07:31,600
Speaker 2: I know, I don't have I don't have any idea

1412
01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:34,320
Speaker 2: how they're making a dime. But you know that's that's

1413
01:07:34,360 --> 01:07:36,320
Speaker 2: that's not my issue, all right.

1414
01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:40,160
Speaker 1: You're not gonna use terms like laundering and get into conspiratorial.

1415
01:07:39,680 --> 01:07:42,200
Speaker 2: No, no, But like dude, I'm just saying that promoting

1416
01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:45,000
Speaker 2: is difficult. Promoting is a hard job.

1417
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 1: Brandon Jenkins versus Anthony and Jukwani on this card as well,

1418
01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:52,480
Speaker 1: Reggie Northrup? Is there any other names we know? I mean,

1419
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:56,280
Speaker 1: I know you don't care, Luke. I'll tune in for curiosity,

1420
01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:59,360
Speaker 1: But dude, if you're JDS, why are you taking yourself

1421
01:07:59,400 --> 01:08:02,040
Speaker 1: out of the then Ghano sweepstakes? What are you doing?

1422
01:08:02,400 --> 01:08:05,000
Speaker 1: I'm the one yelling now, Yeah, I don't, okay, I

1423
01:08:05,040 --> 01:08:08,080
Speaker 1: don't know, all right, And speaking of Bare Knuckle Luke,

1424
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:13,080
Speaker 1: former BKFC champion Alan Belcher is a free agent who

1425
01:08:13,160 --> 01:08:17,439
Speaker 1: has just signed with Guess who game bred MMA, and

1426
01:08:17,520 --> 01:08:20,759
Speaker 1: he's gonna be fighting on October twenty eighth, the dried

1427
01:08:20,880 --> 01:08:24,160
Speaker 1: husk of what's left of Roy Nelson for the Bare

1428
01:08:24,200 --> 01:08:28,600
Speaker 1: Knuckle MMA heavyweight title. And here's the quote from Mosvidal

1429
01:08:28,680 --> 01:08:32,480
Speaker 1: on Arieljjuani's MMA hour. We've got both those freaking savages

1430
01:08:32,520 --> 01:08:36,120
Speaker 1: competing bare knuckle Heavyweight Championship of the World. I told

1431
01:08:36,160 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 1: you I'm bringing fucking heat, brother. End quote. Luke so

1432
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:43,240
Speaker 1: jds won't getting Ghanu, but if he wins, could he

1433
01:08:43,240 --> 01:08:45,840
Speaker 1: get the winner of Alan Belcher versus Roy?

1434
01:08:45,960 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 5: Now?

1435
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:48,400
Speaker 1: What are we doing here? Look? What the hell are

1436
01:08:48,400 --> 01:08:49,200
Speaker 1: we doing here?

1437
01:08:49,520 --> 01:08:54,519
Speaker 2: Alan Belcher he still has like what happened with him

1438
01:08:54,520 --> 01:08:56,040
Speaker 2: at BKFC, right, because I thought he was like a

1439
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:57,360
Speaker 2: big hit for them, but I guess he.

1440
01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,760
Speaker 1: Was like the champion. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.

1441
01:09:00,200 --> 01:09:02,320
Speaker 1: I don't follow it that closely to be fair, Okay,

1442
01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:05,519
Speaker 1: you know, you know it's just he is jacked in.

1443
01:09:05,720 --> 01:09:09,920
Speaker 1: Uh yeah. Look, do you think bare knuckle MMA needs

1444
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:11,960
Speaker 1: to exist? I don't think it needs to exist. Just

1445
01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:14,719
Speaker 1: be like regional game bred MMA and bringing old guys

1446
01:09:14,720 --> 01:09:15,479
Speaker 1: and make fun fights.

1447
01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:17,519
Speaker 2: Right, they got to have some kind of twist This

1448
01:09:17,560 --> 01:09:19,800
Speaker 2: is the angle they're going for. Whether it will work

1449
01:09:19,880 --> 01:09:20,800
Speaker 2: or not, I do not know.

1450
01:09:21,320 --> 01:09:23,400

01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,840
Speaker 1: three is the barely plus five hundred record of Luke,

1521
01:12:37,439 --> 01:12:41,160
Speaker 1: but only two or so picks away at sixty one

1522
01:12:41,200 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 1: and sixty three is your boy BC? Oh yeah, baby,

1523
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:47,040
Speaker 1: this could be the week, Luke. This could be the

1524
01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:49,599
Speaker 1: week I passed your ass on a segment that we

1525
01:12:49,640 --> 01:13:01,280
Speaker 1: call okay bet all right, okay, better? Is it's time

1526
01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:04,160
Speaker 1: to get it? Luke? You still hold the champions advantage?

1527
01:13:04,160 --> 01:13:05,400
Speaker 1: Are you going first or second?

1528
01:13:05,400 --> 01:13:07,839
Speaker 2: Here? I'll go first. I mean, it's not too difficult

1529
01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:10,320
Speaker 2: to call for the main event. Obviously, I'm gonna go

1530
01:13:10,360 --> 01:13:12,880
Speaker 2: with the champ is he? I don't know if there's

1531
01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:15,439
Speaker 2: much explanation that needs to be made. Listen, MMA's crazy.

1532
01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:18,439
Speaker 2: Anything can happen blah blah blah, upsets there or there,

1533
01:13:19,160 --> 01:13:22,160
Speaker 2: you know whatever. But it's just hard for me to

1534
01:13:22,200 --> 01:13:24,840
Speaker 2: see a credible case at this point in time, So

1535
01:13:25,040 --> 01:13:26,200
Speaker 2: give me easy.

1536
01:13:26,439 --> 01:13:29,240
Speaker 1: Yeah. I saw Strickland until John Anick after the commemorative

1537
01:13:29,240 --> 01:13:32,000
Speaker 1: wayans this morning that you know, he was yelling to

1538
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:33,720
Speaker 1: the fans, thank you for he was actually being really

1539
01:13:33,760 --> 01:13:36,200
Speaker 1: sincere and thanking them sincerely for the support, but then saying,

1540
01:13:36,560 --> 01:13:38,680
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get a lot more CTE for all of

1541
01:13:38,720 --> 01:13:42,240
Speaker 1: you come Saturday or Sunday or whenever it is down under? Luke,

1542
01:13:42,320 --> 01:13:44,720
Speaker 1: I do believe that Strickland's gonna go after is he?

1543
01:13:45,160 --> 01:13:45,280
Speaker 2: It?

1544
01:13:45,360 --> 01:13:47,920
Speaker 1: Really? If you really think about it. I don't want

1545
01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:49,639
Speaker 1: to say that's his only chance. He does have five

1546
01:13:49,720 --> 01:13:52,040
Speaker 1: run stamina. But I think we're being correct in saying

1547
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,519
Speaker 1: what what is he gonna do to sustain? What is

1548
01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 1: he gonna do to win rounds? It's hard? It's hard, Luke,

1549
01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:01,559
Speaker 1: it really is hard. You gotta go isy here. He's

1550
01:14:01,600 --> 01:14:04,960
Speaker 1: a nearly seven to one underdog. Do you think that

1551
01:14:05,000 --> 01:14:07,599
Speaker 1: what is he said at the press conference is ultimately

1552
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:11,160
Speaker 1: the difference here? When he said they asked is he

1553
01:14:11,240 --> 01:14:15,280
Speaker 1: about Strickland's comments about mimicking what Kelvin Gastellum did, and

1554
01:14:15,280 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 1: what is he basically said was, look, that's great, but

1555
01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:20,200
Speaker 1: he doesn't have the chin gastolum has and then he

1556
01:14:20,200 --> 01:14:22,280
Speaker 1: made a you know, a reference to the tradition of

1557
01:14:22,320 --> 01:14:26,559
Speaker 1: Mexican fighter's chins. Is that the biggest reason in your

1558
01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:30,160
Speaker 1: eyes why a Strickland upset is unlikely? Or does Is

1559
01:14:30,200 --> 01:14:31,320
Speaker 1: that not even part of your thinking?

1560
01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:33,439
Speaker 2: That's part of it too. I mean he actually referenced

1561
01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:34,920
Speaker 2: to another fight which I think is a little bit

1562
01:14:34,960 --> 01:14:39,280
Speaker 2: more doable, which was Michael Bisping versus Anderson Silva. You know,

1563
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:41,840
Speaker 2: that is a little bit more doable because you can

1564
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:44,240
Speaker 2: really work volume, You can put the jab in his

1565
01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:49,120
Speaker 2: face potentially, potentially, and you know, work from that. But

1566
01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:52,200
Speaker 2: even that seems like Anderson to you know, Anderson would

1567
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:54,320
Speaker 2: play too many games and wait too long to throw.

1568
01:14:55,120 --> 01:14:59,720
Speaker 2: Is he is selective but not like that. It's like

1569
01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:03,000
Speaker 2: I said, dude, anything can happen. MMA's crazy, blah blah blah.

1570
01:15:03,080 --> 01:15:05,240
Speaker 2: But it's it's hard to see a path for him.

1571
01:15:05,280 --> 01:15:05,760
Speaker 2: It really is.

1572
01:15:05,920 --> 01:15:08,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, we're both gonna go with Izzy. Obviously, that makes

1573
01:15:08,960 --> 01:15:11,599
Speaker 1: a lot of sense. I want to see those updated. Uh.

1574
01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:14,880
Speaker 1: Caesars has minus six fifty for Izzy plus four sixty

1575
01:15:14,880 --> 01:15:17,280
Speaker 1: for Strickland. So Luke in a betting sense, although it's

1576
01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,479
Speaker 1: not part of our segment. You and I were both

1577
01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:22,799
Speaker 1: on CBS Sports HQ yesterday. We both predicted Izzy by stoppage.

1578
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,839
Speaker 1: I'm thinking right around round three because the more Strickland

1579
01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:28,599
Speaker 1: tries to win this, look, unless he's gonna come out

1580
01:15:28,600 --> 01:15:31,400
Speaker 1: with the most accurate jab, that's gonna surprise us and

1581
01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:34,679
Speaker 1: how it backs out to sign you up. The more

1582
01:15:34,720 --> 01:15:37,160
Speaker 1: he tries to win, the more it speeds up his exit.

1583
01:15:37,200 --> 01:15:39,559
Speaker 1: That's the equation when you go into the spider web

1584
01:15:39,600 --> 01:15:41,479
Speaker 1: of countershots that is he that is he weaves.

1585
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:43,760
Speaker 2: You know that he's hard to hit clean, he's hard

1586
01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:47,840
Speaker 2: to hurt. I mean yeah, I mean we've kind of,

1587
01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:49,840
Speaker 2: you know, been over this a million times. But it's

1588
01:15:49,920 --> 01:15:52,439
Speaker 2: just tough, dude. That's a real tough matchup for him.

1589
01:15:52,640 --> 01:15:54,640
Speaker 1: All right, let's go to your favorite luke, who are

1590
01:15:54,680 --> 01:15:57,439
Speaker 1: you back in here on minus money?

1591
01:15:57,640 --> 01:16:00,320
Speaker 2: Well, I you know, made one of the all time

1592
01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,479
Speaker 2: dumbest picks and picking one of the Connecticut boys to

1593
01:16:02,479 --> 01:16:04,880
Speaker 2: beat a Tafa brother and that didn't go well. So

1594
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:07,080
Speaker 2: let me see if I can undo that a little

1595
01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:09,599
Speaker 2: bit now. This time when they fought the last time,

1596
01:16:09,720 --> 01:16:11,920
Speaker 2: Justin Tafa got raked in the eyes and they couldn't fight.

1597
01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:14,519
Speaker 2: This is the rematch against Austin Lane. Our friends that

1598
01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:16,880
Speaker 2: Caesars have Tafa as a minus two twenty. I think

1599
01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:19,640
Speaker 2: that's good enough to still be pickable for this contest.

1600
01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:23,519
Speaker 2: So give me justin Tafa to beat Austin Lane for

1601
01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:24,360
Speaker 2: my favorite.

1602
01:16:24,640 --> 01:16:26,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, I feel like a knockout is coming in that fight,

1603
01:16:26,800 --> 01:16:28,920
Speaker 1: and I think he got the right guy. He's got

1604
01:16:29,080 --> 01:16:32,360
Speaker 1: the fan base there, the brothers bang, we know that.

1605
01:16:32,479 --> 01:16:34,720
Speaker 1: So the tour of Tafa will continue. Let's go to

1606
01:16:34,720 --> 01:16:36,280
Speaker 1: my pick for favorite. I'm going to go to that

1607
01:16:36,320 --> 01:16:39,280
Speaker 1: Cole main event. It's Alexander Volkoff minus two point fifty

1608
01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:43,519
Speaker 1: against ty Touivasa, who's got somewhat. You know, they're giving

1609
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,920
Speaker 1: him respect on those odds. Luke. Caesars has a plus

1610
01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:48,680
Speaker 1: two zero five too, Evasa. This is a fight that

1611
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:50,960
Speaker 1: we talked about this week that yes, Tuivasa could win,

1612
01:16:51,320 --> 01:16:53,639
Speaker 1: and really I think for his upper bound limit future

1613
01:16:54,000 --> 01:16:59,760
Speaker 1: as potentially half fun guy, half legitimate, I'm going after

1614
01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: the he needs this win. I think a lot of people, though,

1615
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,760
Speaker 1: are looking at my analysis and say I'm asking too

1616
01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:08,240
Speaker 1: much of tay to Ivasa, Luke. If he doesn't come

1617
01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:10,880
Speaker 1: out with something different and it's still the same thing.

1618
01:17:11,320 --> 01:17:13,759
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be the perfect fodder for Alexander

1619
01:17:13,800 --> 01:17:16,040
Speaker 1: Volkoff to work him from the outside with not only

1620
01:17:16,080 --> 01:17:19,200
Speaker 1: the jab but those hard lake strikes, the body kicks,

1621
01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:22,240
Speaker 1: but also the wrestling. I mean, Volkoff didn't, you know,

1622
01:17:22,439 --> 01:17:24,479
Speaker 1: mince words when he said, like I told you earlier

1623
01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:27,479
Speaker 1: this week he said, my ego lets me know that

1624
01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,640
Speaker 1: I'm a better striker than him. But I need to

1625
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:30,920
Speaker 1: win this fight. So at the end of the day,

1626
01:17:30,920 --> 01:17:34,120
Speaker 1: if there's openings for wrestling, I'm gonna take it. What

1627
01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 1: do you make of Tiye two of USA's Takedown defense

1628
01:17:36,640 --> 01:17:39,200
Speaker 1: at this point, because I'm gonna take the favorite here

1629
01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,240
Speaker 1: in Volkoff. I do think he's coming on two straight

1630
01:17:41,280 --> 01:17:43,599
Speaker 1: wins by knockout. I don't think he's perfect. I don't

1631
01:17:43,640 --> 01:17:45,320
Speaker 1: think he even gets to the title level at the

1632
01:17:45,360 --> 01:17:47,280
Speaker 1: end of the day, but I think he should win

1633
01:17:47,320 --> 01:17:50,280
Speaker 1: this matchup what happens, though, If tu Avasa stops to take.

1634
01:17:50,200 --> 01:17:55,400
Speaker 2: Down, that improves his chances certainly, but there's still a

1635
01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:57,679
Speaker 2: lot to overcome, just in terms of overcoming the reach.

1636
01:17:58,360 --> 01:18:00,599
Speaker 2: But yeah, I mean, I mean, stop in the takedown

1637
01:18:00,680 --> 01:18:02,920
Speaker 2: seems like a pretty important component, which he should be

1638
01:18:02,960 --> 01:18:05,559
Speaker 2: able to do. Volkov's got some decent takedowns, but not

1639
01:18:06,680 --> 01:18:10,160
Speaker 2: overwhelming I don't think, certainly, not against I mean, yeah, listen,

1640
01:18:10,160 --> 01:18:11,800
Speaker 2: it's just gonna tell us where two Vasa is at.

1641
01:18:11,920 --> 01:18:14,280
Speaker 2: Like Tui Vasa should be able to manage that. He

1642
01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:16,160
Speaker 2: should be able to get that done. He is again

1643
01:18:16,600 --> 01:18:19,559
Speaker 2: the faster athlete that can also matter in takedown defense

1644
01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:22,760
Speaker 2: as well. So I guess we'll see, but I think

1645
01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:24,720
Speaker 2: he will. The question is whether or not that will

1646
01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:25,960
Speaker 2: be enough even if he does.

1647
01:18:26,439 --> 01:18:28,320
Speaker 1: I'm a little nervous making this pick because I will

1648
01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 1: say this about touy Vasa. He does seem to have

1649
01:18:30,240 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: the ability to rise to the occasion we are talking about,

1650
01:18:32,880 --> 01:18:36,880
Speaker 1: like taking that Pavloch fight too quickly and getting demolished.

1651
01:18:36,960 --> 01:18:39,800
Speaker 1: But the time off does leave me wondering about what

1652
01:18:39,840 --> 01:18:42,120
Speaker 1: we're gonna get. But with the home fans rocking, I'm

1653
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:43,680
Speaker 1: gonna be biting my nails during this one. But I

1654
01:18:43,680 --> 01:18:44,800
Speaker 1: still like Volkoff as the fair.

1655
01:18:44,800 --> 01:18:45,879
Speaker 2: They're gonna come a knocking.

1656
01:18:46,080 --> 01:18:49,280
Speaker 1: Huh, Yeah, come a knocking, Luke, who's your underdog here?

1657
01:18:49,479 --> 01:18:49,679
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1658
01:18:49,920 --> 01:18:50,040
Speaker 6: Uh?

1659
01:18:50,120 --> 01:18:51,960
Speaker 2: This is probably a terrible pick because all my underdog

1660
01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:54,160
Speaker 2: picks are pretty terrible, but I'm gonna go with dot Unjongo.

1661
01:18:54,200 --> 01:18:56,879
Speaker 2: He's coming off two straight losses, which is obviously probably

1662
01:18:56,880 --> 01:18:58,759
Speaker 2: a very bad reason to put him in this spot.

1663
01:18:58,920 --> 01:19:01,840
Speaker 2: The thing is at times and the Kennedy insz Echkuu fight,

1664
01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:05,360
Speaker 2: he looked pretty good. Actually he's had moments. This guy

1665
01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,360
Speaker 2: out of South Korea. He's taken on Carlos Olberg who

1666
01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:09,880
Speaker 2: has gotten nothing but better. So he's probably gonna get

1667
01:19:09,880 --> 01:19:11,680
Speaker 2: his ass kicked. But forced to make a pick out

1668
01:19:11,680 --> 01:19:14,559
Speaker 2: of an underdog on this card different from you certainly

1669
01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:18,519
Speaker 2: as well. This was one I thought maybe there's a chance,

1670
01:19:18,600 --> 01:19:20,160
Speaker 2: but you know, it's a it's a stupid pick.

1671
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:22,080
Speaker 1: If yeah, yeah, I'm gonna tell you right now, you're

1672
01:19:22,120 --> 01:19:23,920
Speaker 1: gonna lose it, Luke. Oldberg's gonna win, and then he's

1673
01:19:23,920 --> 01:19:26,519
Speaker 1: gonna win after the fight too. He's gonna win, big dude.

1674
01:19:26,520 --> 01:19:29,680
Speaker 2: He's gonna nothing do nothing but winning, nothing.

1675
01:19:29,520 --> 01:19:31,800
Speaker 1: Nothing but winning. So that'll bring me closer to you.

1676
01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,519
Speaker 1: My underdog pick I'm a little nervous on because I

1677
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:36,840
Speaker 1: picked it before the weight miss and you know, Luke,

1678
01:19:36,880 --> 01:19:39,240
Speaker 1: I'm always I don't trust when a guy misses wad

1679
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 1: as bad as Shane Young did who will be taking

1680
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:45,160
Speaker 1: on Gabriel Miranda. Shane Young's the favorite coming in Miranda

1681
01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:47,800
Speaker 1: plus one forty. Let me check the updated one, because

1682
01:19:47,840 --> 01:19:50,639
Speaker 1: what happened here was Shane Young miss weight by upwards

1683
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:54,200
Speaker 1: of four pounds, Luke. But near far wherever they are,

1684
01:19:54,240 --> 01:19:56,920
Speaker 1: this fight will still go on. I am going to

1685
01:19:56,960 --> 01:20:00,240
Speaker 1: take the underdog Gabriel Miranda here. I am nerve us

1686
01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:02,519
Speaker 1: about that pick, as Shane Young, riding a two fight

1687
01:20:02,640 --> 01:20:05,719
Speaker 1: losing streak, does need a big win. Here this catchwaight

1688
01:20:05,760 --> 01:20:07,639
Speaker 1: bot will take place at one hundred and forty nine

1689
01:20:07,680 --> 01:20:13,200
Speaker 1: point seventy five pounds. I'm gonna go Miranda, Luke. I'm

1690
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:16,520
Speaker 1: gonna do it. Miranda rights are allowing me this. But

1691
01:20:16,520 --> 01:20:19,000
Speaker 1: but like the Miranda Rights tell you, Luke, I can

1692
01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:20,920
Speaker 1: plead the fifth and not give you reasons why. So

1693
01:20:21,400 --> 01:20:22,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pick it because I feel it.

1694
01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:27,360
Speaker 2: But I'm nervous Fifth Amendment. But I understand what you mean.

1695
01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:29,080
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I do have a right to an attorney

1696
01:20:29,160 --> 01:20:31,160
Speaker 1: right and if the court coute a point one to me,

1697
01:20:31,280 --> 01:20:36,400
Speaker 1: yeah for you, yes, thank you, I'm gonna go there.

1698
01:20:36,479 --> 01:20:38,200
Speaker 1: Now you were gonna pick that too, Luke, Do you

1699
01:20:38,200 --> 01:20:40,479
Speaker 1: have the same confidence that I do that Miranda can

1700
01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:41,120
Speaker 1: pull this off.

1701
01:20:42,000 --> 01:20:43,280
Speaker 2: That was the other pick. I was gonna do my

1702
01:20:43,360 --> 01:20:46,200
Speaker 2: underdog pick. But again, my underdog picks are consistent failures,

1703
01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:50,040
Speaker 2: so you know, take that for what it's worth, all right,

1704
01:20:50,080 --> 01:20:53,800
Speaker 2: So for over under, give me two yvasa Volkov dot

1705
01:20:53,840 --> 01:20:56,880
Speaker 2: dot dot not going the distance. I just have a

1706
01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:59,320
Speaker 2: hard time, I mean not a hard time. I think

1707
01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:03,320
Speaker 2: it is more unlikely than not that it goes the distance,

1708
01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:05,080
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna think I'm gonna give it the under.

1709
01:21:05,320 --> 01:21:07,760
Speaker 2: I think it gets up where though, is a little

1710
01:21:07,800 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 2: harder to tell, because you could imagine it getting stopping

1711
01:21:10,720 --> 01:21:13,280
Speaker 2: very quickly right when someone lands a big bomb or something,

1712
01:21:13,880 --> 01:21:16,000
Speaker 2: or it going a little bit late if it has to.

1713
01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:18,720
Speaker 2: That's another possibility there as well. But I just tend

1714
01:21:18,720 --> 01:21:20,000
Speaker 2: to think it doesn't go the distance.

1715
01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:23,160
Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think, like I said, Volkov's

1716
01:21:23,160 --> 01:21:25,040
Speaker 1: gonna win a decision, so I'd be happy to get

1717
01:21:25,080 --> 01:21:27,240
Speaker 1: two points off of this result. Let's go over to

1718
01:21:27,280 --> 01:21:30,080
Speaker 1: my over under. I'm gonna go with that Carlos Olberg

1719
01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:32,519
Speaker 1: du Wound Jung fight and say that will not go

1720
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:34,360
Speaker 1: the distance. I do like Olberg as the favorite here.

1721
01:21:34,400 --> 01:21:36,800
Speaker 1: I like him to get the stoppage. You have taken

1722
01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:39,200
Speaker 1: the upset pick on this either way, though, Luke, I

1723
01:21:39,200 --> 01:21:41,000
Speaker 1: don't think they get to the fifteen minute mark.

1724
01:21:42,320 --> 01:21:44,880
Speaker 2: I think that's probably fair. Yeah, I don't think that's

1725
01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:46,360
Speaker 2: a bad pick at all. I would agree with that.

1726
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:48,040
Speaker 2: I mean, Olberg is kind of a go for it

1727
01:21:48,120 --> 01:21:51,639
Speaker 2: kind of dude dude, and dot un Jong. He is

1728
01:21:51,680 --> 01:21:54,559
Speaker 2: not winning more recently, but he is a balls out

1729
01:21:54,560 --> 01:21:57,479
Speaker 2: action fighter, so that's probably a good pick. All right.

1730
01:21:57,520 --> 01:21:59,760
Speaker 2: So last, but not least, Ko or Sub, give me

1731
01:21:59,800 --> 01:22:04,280
Speaker 2: my Cop versus Felipe do Santos via Ko. I have

1732
01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,400
Speaker 2: a feeling that you know, Manel Cop by the way,

1733
01:22:06,439 --> 01:22:09,640
Speaker 2: he's got great flying knees. He's he I wouldn't call

1734
01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:11,439
Speaker 2: him like a bite down on the mouthpiece action guy,

1735
01:22:11,439 --> 01:22:15,960
Speaker 2: but he's got the capability of violence at a moment's notice,

1736
01:22:16,040 --> 01:22:17,639
Speaker 2: I think is a good way to put it. Maybe.

1737
01:22:17,920 --> 01:22:19,720
Speaker 2: And Felipe do Santos I think is going to meet

1738
01:22:19,800 --> 01:22:21,760
Speaker 2: him in the middle, which is probably going to lead

1739
01:22:21,800 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 2: to some kind of devastating KO in other direction, probably

1740
01:22:24,439 --> 01:22:27,280
Speaker 2: in the Dosantos getting Ko inside. But either way, give

1741
01:22:27,320 --> 01:22:29,320
Speaker 2: me Cop versus do Santos via Ko.

1742
01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:31,439
Speaker 1: All right, My KO or Sub is going to go

1743
01:22:31,479 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 1: back to that game bread MMA main event there from Jacksonville.

1744
01:22:35,320 --> 01:22:37,439
Speaker 1: It's very simple. I'm going with the Ko Luke, you

1745
01:22:37,680 --> 01:22:39,640
Speaker 1: can either fight or winning. Will give me that if

1746
01:22:39,640 --> 01:22:41,880
Speaker 1: they do it by Ko. But the thirty nine year

1747
01:22:41,880 --> 01:22:45,080
Speaker 1: old junior Do Santos looks like a million bucks. We're

1748
01:22:45,200 --> 01:22:47,120
Speaker 1: right to have a lot of questions about for doom

1749
01:22:47,160 --> 01:22:49,879
Speaker 1: at forty six baron knuckle. Yeah, give me a JDS

1750
01:22:50,000 --> 01:22:51,640
Speaker 1: knockout there to give me another point. I think I

1751
01:22:51,760 --> 01:22:54,439
Speaker 1: might take you this week. I may actually take over you.

1752
01:22:54,479 --> 01:22:58,439
Speaker 1: As we look now at a full screen recap of

1753
01:22:58,520 --> 01:23:02,240
Speaker 1: our picks right here, Thank you, Ke Morms. This is BC.

1754
01:23:02,400 --> 01:23:04,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need I'm gonna need some help here. I'm

1755
01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:07,280
Speaker 1: really nervous about that favorite and underdog pick, but I

1756
01:23:07,320 --> 01:23:09,000
Speaker 1: think I got three points outside of that.

1757
01:23:09,360 --> 01:23:11,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, the underdog pick is sketch, but the rest of

1758
01:23:11,720 --> 01:23:12,879
Speaker 2: them look pretty good.

1759
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:15,800
Speaker 1: Looks decent, although two vasa scares me. Let's go back

1760
01:23:15,800 --> 01:23:18,160
Speaker 1: to Luke's picks to recap as the race is so

1761
01:23:18,320 --> 01:23:20,920
Speaker 1: tight at the moment. As you say, I.

1762
01:23:20,840 --> 01:23:23,840
Speaker 2: Gotta say my underdog pick sucks ass. But the other

1763
01:23:23,920 --> 01:23:26,200
Speaker 2: ones I don't think are that bad. Right, No, you

1764
01:23:26,280 --> 01:23:26,680
Speaker 2: never know.

1765
01:23:26,760 --> 01:23:30,120
Speaker 1: You never freaking We'll find out on Monday show the

1766
01:23:30,200 --> 01:23:32,960
Speaker 1: updated scoreboard. Will I take over? If I do take

1767
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:35,639
Speaker 1: over the lead, Luke, I'm gonna start calling my band

1768
01:23:35,680 --> 01:23:37,759
Speaker 1: members and figuring out where, you know, where they're playing.

1769
01:23:37,760 --> 01:23:40,559
Speaker 1: And one week I need I need Jake von Amsterdam

1770
01:23:40,600 --> 01:23:41,200
Speaker 1: there with a camera.

1771
01:23:41,720 --> 01:23:44,200
Speaker 2: I have really slept on your ability to rise. But

1772
01:23:44,240 --> 01:23:45,839
Speaker 2: once again I want to point out to the audience.

1773
01:23:46,360 --> 01:23:48,519
Speaker 2: You know you could flip a coin in every single

1774
01:23:48,560 --> 01:23:51,439
Speaker 2: week and basically have the exact same results that we do.

1775
01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:54,000
Speaker 2: So please take our bedding advice accordingly and.

1776
01:23:54,200 --> 01:23:56,080
Speaker 1: All with all due respect, it's the only sleeping you've

1777
01:23:56,120 --> 01:23:56,720
Speaker 1: been doing, Luke.

1778
01:23:56,800 --> 01:23:59,160
Speaker 2: To be fair, that is also true. Yes, yeah, there

1779
01:23:59,200 --> 01:23:59,439
Speaker 2: you go.

1780
01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:01,600
Speaker 1: We haven't done this in a while, but we do

1781
01:24:01,720 --> 01:24:04,280
Speaker 1: try to put ourselves on trial if necessary. Every Friday,

1782
01:24:04,320 --> 01:24:07,200
Speaker 1: we give you an email address Morning Combat at gmail

1783
01:24:07,240 --> 01:24:09,720
Speaker 1: dot com. Mikey Morrims from CBS Sports say hi on

1784
01:24:09,760 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 1: the other end of that rabbit hole, and it's your

1785
01:24:12,160 --> 01:24:15,320
Speaker 1: chance to put us to question. We speak into a

1786
01:24:15,360 --> 01:24:17,479
Speaker 1: microphone for many hours per week. But did we say

1787
01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:20,599
Speaker 1: some of that bullshit? Were we wrong? Were we too mean?

1788
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:22,720
Speaker 1: What the hell happened? I don't know, but you better

1789
01:24:22,760 --> 01:24:25,799
Speaker 1: have receipts if you want us to humbly admit we.

1790
01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:27,599
Speaker 2: Was dead wrong.

1791
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:38,440
Speaker 1: All right. This one's from Daz Dazz and he mahollowed

1792
01:24:38,520 --> 01:24:40,679
Speaker 1: us Luke, so he must be coming from Hawaii. Hopefully

1793
01:24:40,720 --> 01:24:43,439
Speaker 1: him and his extended family are doing okay. Look, you're

1794
01:24:43,479 --> 01:24:45,320
Speaker 1: not going to buy into some of these MMA fighters

1795
01:24:45,320 --> 01:24:48,000
Speaker 1: that are saying that the Hawaiian fires were laser beams

1796
01:24:48,000 --> 01:24:51,840
Speaker 1: from airplanes. Right, No, I read books, okay, uh. Daz

1797
01:24:51,880 --> 01:24:54,200
Speaker 1: says the Looha donks not to rain on the Gary

1798
01:24:54,280 --> 01:24:56,920
Speaker 1: Busey parade. But the clip that aired on have you

1799
01:24:57,000 --> 01:25:00,599
Speaker 1: seen this shit Gary Busey and Buttered Sausage was a

1800
01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:05,599
Speaker 1: deep fake no, no ah, boy, and not the real

1801
01:25:05,720 --> 01:25:09,519
Speaker 1: Gary Busey. Despite how plausible the video seemed, that's the thing,

1802
01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:12,320
Speaker 1: it seemed real. Thank you for all the great content.

1803
01:25:12,439 --> 01:25:15,360
Speaker 1: Looking forward to the new MK storm merch. Shout out

1804
01:25:15,400 --> 01:25:19,960
Speaker 1: to average Joe Art. Yes he need mahallo, it's dad.

1805
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:23,120
Speaker 1: Say hello to Governor bj for us at the Lava shak.

1806
01:25:23,200 --> 01:25:25,360
Speaker 1: Thank you. We will take that out, we will. This

1807
01:25:25,400 --> 01:25:28,400
Speaker 1: one's from Kevin. He says, hey, guys, quick one this

1808
01:25:28,520 --> 01:25:31,719
Speaker 1: time during have you seen this shit? This week, Brian

1809
01:25:31,880 --> 01:25:36,639
Speaker 1: called Craig Jones a wrestling coach, but he's more known

1810
01:25:36,760 --> 01:25:41,120
Speaker 1: for his reach arounds really wow aka the Octopus Guard.

1811
01:25:41,600 --> 01:25:47,280
Speaker 1: In fact, he should be called a BJJ practitioner coach okay, Luke.

1812
01:25:47,640 --> 01:25:52,120
Speaker 1: While technically Craig Jones is known more for submissions in BJJ,

1813
01:25:53,160 --> 01:25:57,639
Speaker 1: didn't he do? Wonders to Volkanowski's offensive and defensive wrestling?

1814
01:25:57,680 --> 01:26:00,439
Speaker 1: Isn't it not ridiculous for me to use the word

1815
01:26:00,479 --> 01:26:04,439
Speaker 1: wrestling when talking about the other things like BJJ and

1816
01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:07,080
Speaker 1: white Lightning that Craig Jones does so well?

1817
01:26:10,000 --> 01:26:15,680
Speaker 2: I think that. Okay, here's what I'll say, And I

1818
01:26:15,680 --> 01:26:17,800
Speaker 2: said this on my live chat yesterday, which is your

1819
01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:18,880
Speaker 2: favorite program that I do?

1820
01:26:19,040 --> 01:26:22,880
Speaker 1: But yeah, not cheap, not cheap to work on that show,

1821
01:26:22,920 --> 01:26:24,000
Speaker 1: but the people love it, Luke.

1822
01:26:24,000 --> 01:26:26,720
Speaker 2: Okay, Okay, okay. But in all seriousness, someone was asking, like,

1823
01:26:26,800 --> 01:26:29,599
Speaker 2: what is it that he gives people? And the answer is,

1824
01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:31,519
Speaker 2: in my view, because I've watched a lot of his

1825
01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:34,760
Speaker 2: instructionals and his matches, he has a very different view

1826
01:26:34,880 --> 01:26:37,519
Speaker 2: over what jiu jitsu should be doing. Rather than passing

1827
01:26:37,520 --> 01:26:39,559
Speaker 2: guard and going to side mountain stuff like that, he

1828
01:26:39,640 --> 01:26:41,640
Speaker 2: believes you should work on a little bit more of

1829
01:26:41,720 --> 01:26:45,040
Speaker 2: like what you know, methods of control to actually get

1830
01:26:45,080 --> 01:26:48,400
Speaker 2: people pinned where they can't move, wrist rides and controls.

1831
01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:52,800
Speaker 2: So it's a mix of catch wrestling and jiu jitsu, right,

1832
01:26:52,800 --> 01:26:54,320
Speaker 2: And what I mean by that is catch wrestling has

1833
01:26:54,360 --> 01:26:56,800
Speaker 2: a lot of like elbow pain submissions. It doesn't, it's

1834
01:26:56,840 --> 01:26:59,200
Speaker 2: not that, but you know a lot of stuff where

1835
01:26:59,240 --> 01:27:01,639
Speaker 2: you're lifting from the neck, not so much for a choke.

1836
01:27:01,680 --> 01:27:04,640
Speaker 2: You're lifting the head to keep the spine compressed so

1837
01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:07,320
Speaker 2: they can't move. You're using turks, which is essentially one

1838
01:27:07,320 --> 01:27:09,439
Speaker 2: of your legs lifting one of theirs so that you

1839
01:27:09,479 --> 01:27:11,840
Speaker 2: can either turn them or they can't turn right. So

1840
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:14,439
Speaker 2: it's this thing that it's like, it's more grappling than

1841
01:27:14,479 --> 01:27:18,400
Speaker 2: anything else, but it's got wrestling elements built in because

1842
01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:22,480
Speaker 2: catch wrestling is kind of an offshoot of scholastic wrestling,

1843
01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:26,120
Speaker 2: So it's this weird different hybrid. So to your point, BC,

1844
01:27:27,000 --> 01:27:28,720
Speaker 2: you know, is he a wrestling coach in the way

1845
01:27:28,760 --> 01:27:30,720
Speaker 2: that we typically understand them. No, I don't think that

1846
01:27:30,720 --> 01:27:32,960
Speaker 2: would be a fair description. But is he a jiu

1847
01:27:33,080 --> 01:27:36,320
Speaker 2: jitsu coach in the common way that we understand it?

1848
01:27:36,400 --> 01:27:38,799
Speaker 2: I would argue, Yeah, he can do all those things,

1849
01:27:39,160 --> 01:27:41,519
Speaker 2: but he does more than that, and it's a little

1850
01:27:41,560 --> 01:27:45,040
Speaker 2: bit more of that old school wrestling pinning type stuff. Yes,

1851
01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:45,960
Speaker 2: different and new.

1852
01:27:46,800 --> 01:27:49,040
Speaker 1: So to be fully pedantic here, I think it's fair

1853
01:27:49,040 --> 01:27:53,559
Speaker 1: for me to say I'm more right then I'm wrong. Right.

1854
01:27:55,040 --> 01:27:57,679
Speaker 2: I think you couldn't call him a strict jiu jitsu coach.

1855
01:27:57,680 --> 01:28:00,599
Speaker 2: I would call him like a grappling coach, which something.

1856
01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:04,360
Speaker 1: To be fair when people say grappling in the mixed

1857
01:28:04,360 --> 01:28:07,640
Speaker 1: martial arts space that does involve both amateur wrestling and

1858
01:28:07,720 --> 01:28:10,200
Speaker 1: jiu jitsu. Correct, that's the thing, So I should just

1859
01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:12,360
Speaker 1: say grappling coach, so Kevin can.

1860
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:13,920
Speaker 2: Be right here, right, yeah, something like that.

1861
01:28:14,280 --> 01:28:17,479
Speaker 1: All right, Maybe I'm wrong in that regard, But is

1862
01:28:17,800 --> 01:28:20,280
Speaker 1: the proper counter to a Turk a k KOs luke?

1863
01:28:23,840 --> 01:28:27,280
Speaker 1: It's a Caribbean island, It's yeah, here you go, all right.

1864
01:28:27,479 --> 01:28:29,840
Speaker 2: It's an Istanbul, not Constantinople.

1865
01:28:30,000 --> 01:28:31,720
Speaker 1: Oh okay, there you go. Hey, let's go to the

1866
01:28:31,760 --> 01:28:34,240
Speaker 1: next dead wrong. It's a double dead wrong from Dalton.

1867
01:28:34,880 --> 01:28:36,840
Speaker 1: Two dead wrongs this week and both of them are

1868
01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:39,960
Speaker 1: four BC. Here we go number one at eleven minutes

1869
01:28:40,000 --> 01:28:42,720
Speaker 1: of episode for eighty five BC. Who was looking like

1870
01:28:43,320 --> 01:28:46,000
Speaker 1: the Michael Douglas character from Falling Down with His New

1871
01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:50,240
Speaker 1: Glasses states that is he quote has six title defenses

1872
01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:53,200
Speaker 1: looking to extend to seven on Saturday. Hey, that's dead wrong.

1873
01:28:53,720 --> 01:28:56,640
Speaker 1: Is he is going for title defense number six? He

1874
01:28:56,720 --> 01:28:59,400
Speaker 1: doesn't already have six? I will take that, Aul, especially

1875
01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:02,200
Speaker 1: since I previously said he only had four. I think

1876
01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:06,080
Speaker 1: he beat Romero, Costa, Vittori, Whitaker, and Cannon Air before

1877
01:29:06,120 --> 01:29:09,240
Speaker 1: losing to Poeton. That's five defenses BC. Here's hoping that

1878
01:29:09,280 --> 01:29:12,679
Speaker 1: BC's lovely wife is the one who helps his kids

1879
01:29:12,720 --> 01:29:15,240
Speaker 1: with their math homework so they don't wind up at

1880
01:29:15,280 --> 01:29:19,479
Speaker 1: the same Mail Order Community College that BC dropped out of.

1881
01:29:19,520 --> 01:29:22,320
Speaker 2: Well, just now, that was unnecessary, Jesus.

1882
01:29:22,760 --> 01:29:25,320
Speaker 1: Just so you know, I do have an associate's degree

1883
01:29:25,560 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 1: in general studies from that from Naugatuck Valley Community Technical College,

1884
01:29:30,200 --> 01:29:35,160
Speaker 1: So put some respect on the NVCC, Thank you very much. Also, Luke,

1885
01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:39,200
Speaker 1: my lovely wife and I both punt when it comes

1886
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:41,680
Speaker 1: to math homework. Have you tried to well, your your

1887
01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:45,080
Speaker 1: daughter's not in sophomore year AP calculus or whatever the

1888
01:29:45,120 --> 01:29:47,400
Speaker 1: heck my kids are in. But look it's dude, it's

1889
01:29:47,439 --> 01:29:50,040
Speaker 1: a foreign language when they're like, now, now I know

1890
01:29:50,040 --> 01:29:52,360
Speaker 1: what you're thinking. You heard me try to tackle sat

1891
01:29:52,520 --> 01:29:54,920
Speaker 1: mask skills without a pen and paper and a lot

1892
01:29:54,960 --> 01:29:57,679
Speaker 1: of Delta a's, and it went disastrously wrong in studio.

1893
01:29:58,120 --> 01:30:01,000
Speaker 1: But look, I was pretty good at math twenty seven

1894
01:30:01,040 --> 01:30:03,040
Speaker 1: years later, Dude, I don't have a freaking chance of

1895
01:30:03,080 --> 01:30:03,880
Speaker 1: helping on Homerk.

1896
01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:06,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. I did well in math in high school. My

1897
01:30:06,080 --> 01:30:09,000
Speaker 2: brother has a PhD in math, but I haven't looked

1898
01:30:09,000 --> 01:30:11,680
Speaker 2: at math problems in twenty plus years. I don't know

1899
01:30:11,720 --> 01:30:12,400
Speaker 2: what I'm gonna do.

1900
01:30:12,640 --> 01:30:15,160
Speaker 1: I'm like, hey, son, just you know you can pick

1901
01:30:15,160 --> 01:30:18,840
Speaker 1: a career which math is not a question. I was

1902
01:30:18,840 --> 01:30:20,800
Speaker 1: told there wasn't any math in combat sports, Luke, So

1903
01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:23,719
Speaker 1: that's why I'm here, So thank you very much. Also, yes,

1904
01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:25,719
Speaker 1: my wife is a lot smarter than me and handles

1905
01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:29,160
Speaker 1: the finances. There's reasons, Luke, why partnership is great in

1906
01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:31,000
Speaker 1: that regard. Let's go to the second dead wrong here

1907
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:34,120
Speaker 1: from Dalton. He says at fifty three minutes of episode

1908
01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:37,400
Speaker 1: forty five, BC states that it was Edward Kennedy who

1909
01:30:37,439 --> 01:30:40,759
Speaker 1: said the famous line to Dan quayle I knew Jack Kennedy,

1910
01:30:41,080 --> 01:30:43,160
Speaker 1: and you are no Jack Kennedy. That is dead wrong.

1911
01:30:43,200 --> 01:30:46,519
Speaker 1: You're right. It was Lloyd Benson, the running mate of

1912
01:30:46,560 --> 01:30:50,639
Speaker 1: Michael Dukakis, who said this to Dan Quayle about Jack

1913
01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:54,400
Speaker 1: Kennedy having nothing to do with Edward Ted Kennedy. If

1914
01:30:54,439 --> 01:30:56,080
Speaker 1: you're going to be a washed piece of shit, BC,

1915
01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:59,680
Speaker 1: at least try to be a somewhat competent wash pos

1916
01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:04,839
Speaker 1: and not the MMA media equivalent of the aforementioned Doucaucus. Also,

1917
01:31:05,400 --> 01:31:10,080
Speaker 1: ps BC, stop asking for the Charles Whitman when you

1918
01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:15,040
Speaker 1: go to the barber shop. It's twenty twenty three. Love

1919
01:31:15,080 --> 01:31:17,320
Speaker 1: the content in donk on day one.

1920
01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:19,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, whatever concert we go to, it's not

1921
01:31:19,640 --> 01:31:21,120
Speaker 2: gonna be a country one. We're just gonna put it

1922
01:31:21,120 --> 01:31:21,680
Speaker 2: that way. You know.

1923
01:31:22,000 --> 01:31:25,000
Speaker 1: Well, Luke, I'm not wearing the glasses today because after

1924
01:31:25,040 --> 01:31:26,760
Speaker 1: wearing them for two hours two days ago, I no

1925
01:31:26,840 --> 01:31:29,080
Speaker 1: longer could see long distance. So I think I may

1926
01:31:29,120 --> 01:31:31,759
Speaker 1: have to like ration my use of them to reading a little.

1927
01:31:32,840 --> 01:31:33,120
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1928
01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, my eyes were blurry for twenty four hours after that.

1929
01:31:35,840 --> 01:31:36,360
Speaker 2: It was great.

1930
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:38,880
Speaker 1: I'll take the ls on there. I was dead wrong.

1931
01:31:38,920 --> 01:31:43,639
Speaker 1: Thank you for being largely polite, but not really. That's

1932
01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:45,960
Speaker 1: the end of that segment. What we have, Luke also

1933
01:31:46,080 --> 01:31:48,439
Speaker 1: is some leftover fan subs that we have not finished.

1934
01:31:48,560 --> 01:31:51,240
Speaker 1: Normally we do this on Wednesdays. We had a speed

1935
01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:53,400
Speaker 1: through them last time out, and then I added some

1936
01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:55,800
Speaker 1: have you seen this shit on Wednesday to complicate it.

1937
01:31:55,840 --> 01:31:58,200
Speaker 1: But Morning Combat at gmail dot com is your place

1938
01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:01,600
Speaker 1: to send pictures of you enty merch or maybe you

1939
01:32:01,680 --> 01:32:04,720
Speaker 1: cleaning up the lake and Nova Scotia getting ready for

1940
01:32:04,760 --> 01:32:07,120
Speaker 1: that beautiful fall season over there in Mount Unike. This

1941
01:32:07,160 --> 01:32:15,840
Speaker 1: one's called fancy. Oh wait, we've got mail, Yes, viewers, Yeah,

1944
01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:27,639
Speaker 1: just got back from spending two ninety two fight week

1945
01:32:27,880 --> 01:32:31,519
Speaker 1: with the New England Cartel. Calvin Cater and Rob Fon

1946
01:32:31,600 --> 01:32:35,040
Speaker 1: showed me around Boston, introduced me to Dana White and

1947
01:32:35,080 --> 01:32:37,639
Speaker 1: got me in the building to witness the Sugar Show

1948
01:32:37,960 --> 01:32:41,479
Speaker 1: in full effect. Can't thank these boys enough for making

1949
01:32:41,520 --> 01:32:44,840
Speaker 1: my first UFC experience a special one. Hope to see

1950
01:32:44,880 --> 01:32:47,519
Speaker 1: you boys at a US pay per view suit. Look

1951
01:32:47,560 --> 01:32:49,240
Speaker 1: that looks like an album cover right there. Look at

1952
01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:49,719
Speaker 1: these guys.

1953
01:32:49,800 --> 01:32:53,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, go back to the last shot if you can. Uh,

1954
01:32:53,080 --> 01:32:56,559
Speaker 2: Whoever's running the board there. Yeah, boy, did Calvin Cator

1955
01:32:56,600 --> 01:32:59,080
Speaker 2: get those glasses in Columbia because that's what they're all

1956
01:32:59,120 --> 01:32:59,720
Speaker 2: wearing down there.

1957
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:02,720
Speaker 1: Let me wow, he's ahead of the curve on that style. Luke.

1958
01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:04,600
Speaker 1: I gotta say this. We we have always sort of

1959
01:33:04,600 --> 01:33:06,599
Speaker 1: embraced the friends we've made in this media. I always

1960
01:33:06,600 --> 01:33:08,880
Speaker 1: feel like you can. I'd rather help people and lift

1961
01:33:08,920 --> 01:33:10,360
Speaker 1: him up than hurt him. Luke. Although we have some

1962
01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:12,200
Speaker 1: nice banter with Area, but we work with him too.

1963
01:33:12,200 --> 01:33:15,040
Speaker 1: We love him. Mike Ownes Media is such a good donk.

1964
01:33:15,080 --> 01:33:17,639
Speaker 1: Been on his show just this week recently when I

1965
01:33:17,680 --> 01:33:19,160
Speaker 1: when him and I when I reached out to him

1966
01:33:19,160 --> 01:33:21,719
Speaker 1: after seeing his social media picks in Boston, was like, dude,

1967
01:33:21,800 --> 01:33:24,479
Speaker 1: how was that? He wrote? Best week of my life?

1968
01:33:24,600 --> 01:33:27,760
Speaker 1: Great to see great to see him. Yeah yeah, taking

1969
01:33:27,800 --> 01:33:29,280

Speaker 1: Leo writing in from LA. I heard BC was reading Dune.

1980
01:33:56,120 --> 01:33:59,639
Speaker 1: This is true. The whole series is one of my favorites,

1981
01:33:59,680 --> 01:34:02,000
Speaker 1: and I think Luke would appreciate it too. Love you

1982
01:34:02,080 --> 01:34:04,320
Speaker 1: all and can't wait for the three peat at the

Speaker 1: World MMA Awards. Luke, I don't read You know this

1984
01:34:07,720 --> 01:34:09,960
Speaker 1: about me, right, I don't read fiction, first of all,

1985
01:34:10,840 --> 01:34:12,839
Speaker 1: and I'm having trouble sticking with it because.

1986
01:34:15,360 --> 01:34:18,600
Speaker 2: You have the reading stamina of you know, a toddler.

1987
01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:22,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, my reading hygiene is worse than your sleeping hygiene, Luke.

1988
01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:24,400
Speaker 1: I'll say this though, this might be the greatest book

1989
01:34:24,400 --> 01:34:27,040
Speaker 1: of all time. Dune is already the Dune from twenty

1990
01:34:27,080 --> 01:34:30,200
Speaker 1: eighteen or whenever it came out. It's already my favorite movie.

1991
01:34:30,280 --> 01:34:33,839
Speaker 1: This has become my favorite movie of all time. I'm serious.

1992
01:34:33,880 --> 01:34:36,759
Speaker 1: The New Dune one is my favorite movie. The book

1993
01:34:37,080 --> 01:34:39,320
Speaker 1: is exceptional, dude, this is amazing.

1994
01:34:39,720 --> 01:34:42,320
Speaker 2: Did you so? I was perusing Netflix the other day

1995
01:34:42,360 --> 01:34:44,400
Speaker 2: with my wife and I saw that there's like the

1996
01:34:44,479 --> 01:34:47,640
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty four version of Dune. Is on there. Have

1997
01:34:47,720 --> 01:34:48,200
Speaker 2: you seen it?

1998
01:34:48,560 --> 01:34:53,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's blockbuster, It's Mitch comical. Look, it's ridiculous, I remember. Yeah,

1999
01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:55,160
Speaker 1: So it came out right when I got HBO as

2000
01:34:55,160 --> 01:34:56,240
Speaker 1: a kid, and i'd never watched it.

2001
01:34:56,240 --> 01:34:58,479
Speaker 2: I couldn't tell if you said blockbuster or you were

2002
01:34:58,479 --> 01:35:00,439
Speaker 2: doing skits and bits. But of course you were doing

2003
01:35:00,439 --> 01:35:01,280
Speaker 2: skits and bits.

2004
01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:02,960
Speaker 1: Of course I was. But I'll tell you this, Luke,

2005
01:35:03,240 --> 01:35:06,160
Speaker 1: I did watch parts of it after watching the new one,

2006
01:35:06,200 --> 01:35:08,680
Speaker 1: because when I first got HBO in eighty four, I

2007
01:35:08,720 --> 01:35:11,000
Speaker 1: was like six years old, like Dune was the big

2008
01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:13,600
Speaker 1: movie that was coming, and there's all these specials and features.

2009
01:35:13,240 --> 01:35:15,120
Speaker 2: About on a curve, you know what I mean.

2010
01:35:15,360 --> 01:35:17,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was the most expensive movie ever and it

2011
01:35:17,640 --> 01:35:20,200
Speaker 1: was one of the biggest flops of all time. Do that.

2012
01:35:20,200 --> 01:35:25,000
Speaker 1: That is a comically awful movie. What Dennyvineuve has been

2013
01:35:25,040 --> 01:35:27,320
Speaker 1: able to do with the book and bringing it to

2014
01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:29,240
Speaker 1: script and bringing it to the big screen with his

2015
01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:34,519
Speaker 1: team is remarkable. It's so committed to the to the script, Luke,

2016
01:35:34,680 --> 01:35:37,519
Speaker 1: to the book itself. I'm telling you that. I know

2017
01:35:37,560 --> 01:35:40,120
Speaker 1: it's it's hailed as arguably the greatest science fiction book

2018
01:35:40,120 --> 01:35:42,000
Speaker 1: of all time. So I'm not rediscovering the Wheel here.

2019
01:35:42,400 --> 01:35:44,880
Speaker 1: But this book from from Frank Kerbert is just it's

2020
01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:49,040
Speaker 1: it's it's amazing webscream re read it again out of

2021
01:35:49,080 --> 01:35:51,160
Speaker 1: excitement for me reading it. Luke, remember that.

2022
01:35:51,120 --> 01:35:52,800
Speaker 2: Guy, Yeah, I remember him?

2023
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:55,240
Speaker 1: All right, there we go, Thank you Leo for that

2024
01:35:55,320 --> 01:35:57,559
Speaker 1: fan sub Do you think am I go crazy? And

2025
01:35:57,600 --> 01:35:59,800
Speaker 1: saying that that New Dune movie is among the best

2026
01:35:59,840 --> 01:36:01,680
Speaker 1: movie I've ever seen in my life. You saw it.

2027
01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:04,479
Speaker 2: I did see it. I really liked it. I just

2028
01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:08,439
Speaker 2: think you have not seen very many actually good movies.

2029
01:36:08,439 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 2: That's the problem.

2030
01:36:09,400 --> 01:36:12,559
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, all right, I will say that. Unfortunately, Luke,

2031
01:36:12,600 --> 01:36:14,640
Speaker 1: it's been announced that the sequel that was intended for

2032

Speaker 1: November or.

2033
01:36:15,240 --> 01:36:17,440
Speaker 2: They pushed it way back, right because of the strikes.

2034
01:36:17,120 --> 01:36:20,439
Speaker 1: Right, yeah, because of that damn writers strike. So there

2157
01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:20,639
Speaker 1: Have you ever eaten out of Cumberland farms.

Speaker 2: Luke, I've never even seen one.

2159
01:42:22,920 --> 01:42:25,719

Speaker 1: There it is Luke beef and for days. Yeah, there's

01:42:35,960 --> 01:42:36,000
Speaker 6: This?

2165
01:42:36,120 --> 01:42:37,320
Speaker 1: No one does memes anymore.

2166
01:42:37,840 --> 01:42:42,439
Speaker 2: Hot topic? Yes, that is awesome. That is awesome. When

2167
01:42:42,439 --> 01:42:43,880
Speaker 2: was the last time you were in a hot topic?

2168
01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:46,280
Speaker 2: And I'm gonna say not being a creep.

2169
01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:48,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, I did go to the mall with my wife

2170
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:50,800
Speaker 1: on a day off recently and it was like it

2171
01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:53,200
Speaker 1: reminded me how I used to. You know, between the

2172
01:42:53,240 --> 01:42:56,600
Speaker 1: ages of like twelve and twenty eight, I spent a

2173
01:42:56,600 --> 01:42:58,479
Speaker 1: lot of time in malls, and as an adult you

2174
01:42:58,520 --> 01:43:00,519
Speaker 1: really don't go back except for like Christmas.

2175
01:43:00,560 --> 01:43:03,800
Speaker 2: Right, So, like I said, dude, the malls in Columbia

2176
01:43:03,840 --> 01:43:05,680
Speaker 2: are still kind of where it's at. You know, so

2177
01:43:06,040 --> 01:43:07,479
Speaker 2: when I'm there, you got to go to the mall

2178
01:43:07,479 --> 01:43:09,840
Speaker 2: because that's where all they don't have Amazon there, so

2179
01:43:09,880 --> 01:43:12,000
Speaker 2: like brick and mortar still kind of is the thing,

2180
01:43:12,160 --> 01:43:14,240
Speaker 2: you know. Yeah, so I've been to them. I've been

2181
01:43:14,280 --> 01:43:16,760
Speaker 2: to like the I've been to the malls overseas a lot,

2182
01:43:16,800 --> 01:43:18,639
Speaker 2: but here the malls in DC suck.

2183
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:23,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you know, yeah, it is what it is, Luke.

2184
01:43:23,680 --> 01:43:25,920
Speaker 1: DC's not perfect. I just want you to know that.

2185
01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:28,120
Speaker 2: Oh I know it's not perfect. Oh dude, crime is up,

2186
01:43:28,200 --> 01:43:29,120
Speaker 2: like believe me, I know.

2187
01:43:29,240 --> 01:43:32,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really expensive. And you know, the the attitude

2188
01:43:32,880 --> 01:43:35,640
Speaker 1: of the average service worker, lucas ridiculous.

2189
01:43:35,640 --> 01:43:39,200
Speaker 2: Stop blaming the service workers because your five minutes of

2190
01:43:39,280 --> 01:43:42,719
Speaker 2: material didn't work on them. That's a problem.

2191
01:43:43,640 --> 01:43:47,280
Speaker 1: The instant no cell, the rock solid no cell of

2192
01:43:47,400 --> 01:43:49,439
Speaker 1: like okay.

2193
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:52,320

Speaker 1: also you can vote for us Morning Combat Best MMA

2216
01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:10,920
Speaker 1: Programming fifteenth Annual World MMA Awards, Luke. We might have

2217
01:45:10,960 --> 01:45:13,200
Speaker 1: to be there to accept this. So what if we

2218
01:45:13,240 --> 01:45:16,680
Speaker 1: get O'Malley versus Cheeto? Do we need Connor on there

2219
01:45:16,680 --> 01:45:18,200
Speaker 1: to get the bosses to send us. We got to

2220
01:45:18,240 --> 01:45:19,720
Speaker 1: be there in Las Vegas for this, you.

2221
01:45:19,680 --> 01:45:23,559
Speaker 2: Know, It's hard to say, but I don't think we

2222
01:45:23,760 --> 01:45:25,640
Speaker 2: need Connor on the card. It would make it a

2223
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:27,439
Speaker 2: lot easier, It would make it a lot easier. But

2224
01:45:27,560 --> 01:45:30,439
Speaker 2: I don't think we need it. But I guess we'll

2225
01:45:30,439 --> 01:45:31,360
Speaker 2: have to see. We'll see what.

2226
01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:33,800
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be honest, because you know, we made a

2227
01:45:33,800 --> 01:45:35,600
Speaker 1: fun joke of it, We made a documentary about it.

2228
01:45:35,600 --> 01:45:37,600
Speaker 1: You didn't give us much chance to win. It was

2229
01:45:37,640 --> 01:45:41,800
Speaker 1: a big upset. Emily Witmeyer told us that herself afterwards.

2230
01:45:41,920 --> 01:45:44,519
Speaker 1: It was a huge jus you are that we took

2231
01:45:44,600 --> 01:45:48,240
Speaker 1: down Rogan, Hellani, DC, all them. If we did it

2232
01:45:48,280 --> 01:45:52,320
Speaker 1: for a third straight year, like it, would it bring

2233
01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:53,320
Speaker 1: a tear to your eye.

2234
01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:56,680
Speaker 2: Rick, I might cry. I'm not even doing a bit

2235
01:45:56,760 --> 01:45:58,160
Speaker 2: like I might cry. I might cry.

2236
01:45:58,439 --> 01:46:01,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I would like to. And then we can

2237
01:46:01,479 --> 01:46:05,439

01:46:20,200 --> 01:46:22,360
Speaker 1: looking for, that you'll never wake up. That's my fear. Okay,

Speaker 1: so we need you.

2246
01:46:23,040 --> 01:46:25,360
Speaker 2: Well, that's really a terrible thing to say something to someone.

2247
01:46:25,640 --> 01:46:27,759
Speaker 2: It's quite the omen. But no, I think I'll be okay.

2248
01:46:27,800 --> 01:46:29,519
Speaker 2: I think I'll be okay. It's a you know, I'm
