It's Monday, July fifteenth, twenty twenty four, and 68 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,519 Speaker 1: that is a listen back to the inaugural pilot episode 69 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: of the End of Florine podcast As we arrived today 70 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: at episode five hundred of the Anakin Florin podcast, starring 71 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,240 Speaker 1: three time UFC title challenger Kenny Floory. And it's interesting 72 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:12,520 Speaker 1: listening back to a young Ken Flow and yeah, we 73 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 1: did the episode live in studio TJ DeSantis at the 74 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: Helm in Los Angeles, California. 75 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:17,960 Speaker 9: And here we are, nearly ten. 76 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: Years later, five hundred episodes in the camp. 77 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 7: That's amazing, man, four hundred and ninety nine episodes ago, 78 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:27,639 Speaker 7: Pretty Wild Man, Pretty Will. 79 00:03:27,760 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: So much has changed, so much has changed. 80 00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 7: I just feel really blessed that we've been able to 81 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 7: continue doing this. 82 00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 9: Man, what a trip it's been. 83 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: A lot of those early episodes are still on SoundCloud, 84 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: and by the way, my personal checking account gets fucking 85 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: hit by SoundCloud still every April, and I can't figure 86 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 1: out a way to get that to stop. Maybe TJ 87 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 1: could actually go back into the archives and help. But 88 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: I remember Kevin Ioli was on an early episode, maybe 89 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 1: the inaugural episode. I know John Morgan was on an 90 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: early episode. Kevin Ioli came on and felt like the 91 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: name Florian should be in front of anak. We had 92 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,800 Speaker 1: Dimitrius Johnson on one of the first two episodes, I believe. 93 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: But it is crazy to think back to to all 94 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: the content and just having this outlet. I think for 95 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: both of us has been therapeutic in more ways than one. 96 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: And obviously it's a great conduit for us to be 97 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: with the fans, and to that end, today we have 98 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: tried to put together a special show for you. Out 99 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 1: of respect to some of the athlete schedule to join 100 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,120 Speaker 1: us over the next couple hours, we are not going 101 00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: to announce who they are in case they forget or flake. 102 00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: We don't want to throw them under the bus. In 103 00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: large part because we had Drikus Duplessi on earlier this 104 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: year after he defeated Sean Strickland to become the undisputed 105 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:39,039 Speaker 1: UFC Midaway Champion, and he was supposed to join us 106 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,719 Speaker 1: before the fight, and we announced as much on the show, 107 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 1: and because he didn't, he joined us I think in 108 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: the middle of his slumber with face nearly shut, because 109 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: he wanted to make good on that obligation and deliver 110 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: the deliverable. So thank you, though, to all of our 111 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 1: listeners and viewers, Kenny and I know you share that sentiment, 112 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,600 Speaker 1: to our producers and to all of our old liables 113 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 1: like Ray Longo and Brian Petrie and everybody else. Just 114 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: really grateful to still be doing this thing. And we're 115 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: going to try to do it, you know, until the 116 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: fucking cows come home. We promise it will always be free. 117 00:05:14,040 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: You know, I can't promise you that Kem Flow will 118 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,480 Speaker 1: always do it for free, but the show will always 119 00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: be free. And I also want to say we did 120 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: reach out to Joe Rogan for episode five hundred. He 121 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,520 Speaker 1: is on vacation, I think in Italy with his family, 122 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,320 Speaker 1: so Joe will be on a future episode of the show. 123 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: He was the inspiration for this podcast, and you know, 124 00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 1: as he likes to say about Dana White, at least 125 00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: from my end, Without him, none of this would be possible. 126 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,600 Speaker 1: So thanks to Joe for being an inspiration in more 127 00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: ways than one. All right, let's get into why we 128 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: have been here for four hundred and ninety nine plus episodes. 129 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: Headlines brought to you by Cuervo. Now's a good time 130 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. So, Kenny, we 131 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: did a watch party over the weekend. Ray Longo was 132 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 1: particularly critical of you. At times he felt like you 133 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: had one eye open, and yet when I watched it back, 134 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 1: I felt like you carried the dance. Comedically, you had 135 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:05,360 Speaker 1: a lot of great one liners. The analytics were there, 136 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 1: so I look forward to burying ray Longo. But if 137 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: you did miss our watch party UFC Fight Night noma 138 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: Unis versus Cortes that is available on the Anakin Florian 139 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,719 Speaker 1: podcast YouTube channel. We didn't really get a huge chance 140 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: to decompress, and now we've all had a chance to 141 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,839 Speaker 1: marinate on this result and this main event, Rose noama 142 00:06:22,920 --> 00:06:25,839 Speaker 1: Unis over Tracy Cortes unanimous decision forty nine to forty 143 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: six times two dissenting judge forty eight forty seven. I'm 144 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,280 Speaker 1: sure you have since seen Tracy Cortez's eyelashes get eyelashes, 145 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:34,679 Speaker 1: get knocked off, and everything else. 146 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 6: Kenny. 147 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: Maybe I didn't give the noma Unis performance the credit 148 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 1: it deserved while I was, you know, three sheets to 149 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: the wind in a tequila buzz over the weekend. But 150 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: I watched some of the fight back this morning as 151 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: I was prepping for the show, and you know, clean 152 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:50,359 Speaker 1: dominant for Rose nama Unis and remains on the cusp 153 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: of flyway contention. 154 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 7: She fought like the technician that she is. I think 155 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 7: she was largely dominant throughout that fight. I think she 156 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 7: won every aspect of that fighter, certainly every modality of 157 00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 7: the fight, whether it's on the ground or on the feet. 158 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,160 Speaker 7: She was doing what she does best, you know, her 159 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 7: faint setting things up, She was sneaky, she was crafty, 160 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 7: she was technical, and I think this was a critical 161 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,840 Speaker 7: fight for both of these ladies really right, because, yeah, 162 00:07:17,880 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 7: Tracy Cortez coming in at eleven and one, and we 163 00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 7: were going to say, hey, can she take this to 164 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 7: the next level? Can she be truly elite in that division? 165 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 7: I think we got the answer that she's not ready 166 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 7: for that right now. But I think she's going to 167 00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 7: do a lot of growth. I think she can to 168 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 7: improve a lot after this fight. And for Rosanambinus, we 169 00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 7: found out she still is ely, she can still be 170 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 7: amongst the best and fight amongst the best, and she 171 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,200 Speaker 7: looked confident. I think that's a big part of her success. 172 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,960 Speaker 7: When she's confident, when she's feeling good about her game, 173 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 7: she performs extremely well. And that's exactly what we saw 174 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 7: on Saturday night. 175 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: We are scheduled to be joined by the consensus greatest 176 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: mixed martial arts athlete of all time. That's just maybe 177 00:08:00,560 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: the wrong word, but George San Pierre for a lot 178 00:08:02,280 --> 00:08:03,960 Speaker 1: of people out there, is the goat. And one of 179 00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 1: the things I was going to ask him about Ken 180 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,240 Speaker 1: flow and maybe you can respond to this as a 181 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 1: former earlief fighter yourself. So the night upon which you 182 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,000 Speaker 1: felt the best during your UFC career, either in warm 183 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 1: up or performance, right, Because some of these fighters, right, 184 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: they just hit that proverbial flow state or zone and 185 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,600 Speaker 1: you can almost tell from the minute they hit the 186 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 1: tunnel that they're going to be really hard to beat 187 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: on that particular night. And Rose found the groove early, 188 00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 1: and I think gave Tracy a lot to think about 189 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:31,800 Speaker 1: early in this. 190 00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 7: Fight, no question about it. I think you saw her 191 00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,880 Speaker 7: eyes just on the walkout. She looked focused. She looked 192 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 7: like she was ready to kill. And to answer your 193 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 7: question about is you know how I felt uncertain nights? 194 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 7: You know, I could point to, you know, the Sam 195 00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 7: Stout fight, the Joe Stevenson fight, the Takenry Go Me fight. 196 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 7: Those were fights where I felt great and I felt 197 00:08:54,880 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 7: like there was no one in the world who was 198 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 7: going to beat me that night. And and then there 199 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:02,959 Speaker 7: are other nights where I didn't feel so great and 200 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:07,400 Speaker 7: I won either able to pull it off, Like I 201 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 7: guess theklak we To fight, I didn't feel so great, 202 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 7: you know, in the warm up, I didn't feel so 203 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 7: great in the In the fight before Roger Werta, I 204 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 7: was literally sick walking out to that fight, and then 205 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:21,640 Speaker 7: before the Josielda fight, I didn't feel great and I lost, 206 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 7: or you know some other fights that I could point 207 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 7: to where I didn't feel great and I wasn't good 208 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:26,959 Speaker 7: enough to pull it off. 209 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,160 Speaker 9: And I've said this many times on the podcast. 210 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 7: You have to be so good that even on your 211 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 7: best night, even on your worst night, you still find 212 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 7: a way to win. And I think that's what separates 213 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 7: the great champions from everybody else, is even if they 214 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 7: don't feel great, even if they have injuries, they still 215 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 7: find a way to win. 216 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: I feel like I might need a life coach. And 217 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:50,280 Speaker 1: if you had said that to me when I was 218 00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,600 Speaker 1: thirty five or thirty eight, I really would have scoffed 219 00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:56,880 Speaker 1: at the notion. When you talk about this in fighting terms, 220 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: is some of this about psychology? Because I feel like 221 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: has not only been there and done that right, but 222 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: she's worked on her mind right. And even when her 223 00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,920 Speaker 1: mind wasn't as forged as it is now, you know, 224 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,200 Speaker 1: she was beating twice over the likes of Yanna Young, 225 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: Jitchek and Jong Way Lee, so the skills have always 226 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,760 Speaker 1: been there, But I do believe when at all the lines, 227 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: especially with the mental, she's really hard to beat. Like 228 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:22,280 Speaker 1: when you talk about those Kit coked are you just 229 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: like mentally you just feel invincible or is it a 230 00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: physical thing? You know? 231 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 7: I think it all stems from your training right. Knowing 232 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 7: what you are capable of and trusting in that I 233 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 7: think is crucial. I also think you know the management 234 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:40,360 Speaker 7: of your body, you know, just injuries of personal stuff 235 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 7: that comes into play that you need to be able 236 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 7: to shut out of your life for that fifteen minutes 237 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 7: or that twenty five minutes. And of course you also 238 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 7: have another guy across from you that is also very 239 00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 7: very good, and you have to be good enough to 240 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 7: be able to pull it off. So there are a 241 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 7: lot of factors that play into that. You know, and 242 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 7: and I think for Rose, you know, I'll talk about 243 00:11:04,280 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 7: me again. You know about the narratives that you play 244 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 7: in your head, and I think that sometimes you could 245 00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:13,360 Speaker 7: put a lot more pressure on yourself than is necessary. 246 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 7: I certainly felt that in the finale, The Ultimate Fighter Finale. 247 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 7: I certainly felt that in some of my championship fights. 248 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:24,199 Speaker 7: And the reality is it is just a fight, and 249 00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 7: you have to have that same level of purity when 250 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,160 Speaker 7: you're looking at it and not play up these narratives 251 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 7: too much. I think Rose has performed the best. I 252 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 7: will talk about Rose now when she has been the 253 00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:39,320 Speaker 7: underdog or when people maybe aren't expecting so much from her. 254 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 7: So yeah, it's tricky of the games that we play 255 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,960 Speaker 7: inside our head and how we manage that I think 256 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 7: is very very important as well. 257 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:51,960 Speaker 1: I know you were dodging bullets from Longo as we 258 00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 1: were taping the watch party, But on the Tracy Cortes side, 259 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: can flow. I feel like there is no overstating how 260 00:11:57,520 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 1: valuable this experience is. And now she wants to get 261 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,280 Speaker 1: right back in there. And one thing that has not 262 00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:07,960 Speaker 1: been a staple of Tracy Cortes's career has been the 263 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 1: ability to repeatedly get back in there and string fights together. 264 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: So what do you think Tracy gains from these twenty 265 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:19,079 Speaker 1: five minutes accrued with rosanama Unis And does it change 266 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: your opinion as to what her flyweight ceiling in the 267 00:12:21,679 --> 00:12:22,319 Speaker 1: UFC may be. 268 00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:29,040 Speaker 7: You need to be able to experience that next level fighter, right, 269 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 7: You need to be able to feel what that's like. 270 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 7: Experience what that is like in order to take yourself 271 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 7: to that next level and you realize, oh man, you 272 00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 7: know I got to work on this, this, this and that, 273 00:12:40,760 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 7: And sometimes you don't always experience that in training to 274 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 7: how you like, especially for a lot of the females 275 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 7: who don't have a room field of twenty thirty females 276 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 7: in her weight class where she can, you know, judge 277 00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:53,679 Speaker 7: how she's doing. 278 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: And a lot of times you get that feedback in 279 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 1: a fight. 280 00:12:57,200 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 7: Even for a lot of the male fighters from those 281 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 7: big they only find out what they really need to 282 00:13:02,080 --> 00:13:04,680 Speaker 7: improve on on fight night. A lot of times you're 283 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 7: going at one hundred percent speed. You're going with guys 284 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 7: you haven't gone with you, So that feedback is crucial 285 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 7: and you're only going to get better in my opinion, 286 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 7: if you're staying really active like that's when you get 287 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 7: better is after fight, and if you're fighting once a year, 288 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 7: it's gonna be hard to make those games. Can you 289 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 7: make it into training, no question about it, But when 290 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 7: the lights are on, you have to be able to 291 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 7: experience what that is like. You get more comfortable with 292 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 7: that process. So I think Tracy Cortes moving forward being 293 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 7: more active is only going to help her. 294 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:42,120 Speaker 1: I think if Tracy Cortes becomes the undisputed UFC Flyway Champion, 295 00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 1: it will be because she accepted this fight on short 296 00:13:44,920 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 1: notice against rosanami Unis, because I think it's going to 297 00:13:47,320 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 1: sort of push the reset button on her whole mentality. 298 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,719 Speaker 1: And now I think you'll probably see her in three 299 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: or four months. There are a lot of people in 300 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: that division she's number eleven ranked above her that she 301 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: could fight because I think she represents a big fight 302 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: for a lot of people and gets this nomin unus rub. 303 00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: I can't speak to her relative preparation for this fight 304 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 1: and how it would have been had this been a 305 00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:13,320 Speaker 1: five round main event scheduled in advance, but you know 306 00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 1: she was able to go the twenty five minutes. And 307 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: I think in the not too distant future you're going 308 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 1: to see increasingly the Tracy Cortes is ready for primetime. 309 00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 1: But now with us on the line, right on the screws, see, 310 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:26,640 Speaker 1: you can just tell how elite a human being this 311 00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 1: is because he shows upright on the screws here eleven 312 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: am Eastern Time, a man who is widely regarded as 313 00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: the greatest mixed martial Artist of All Time, UFC Hall 314 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: of Fameer, former on disputed UFC Welchweight Champion and middlewaight Champion, 315 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 1: George Rush Saint Pierre Brother looking great as usual.

It's like 446 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 11: when you roll with them, sometimes you anticipate, you know 447 00:20:49,600 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 11: what is coming, but you can't stop it because their 448 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 11: positioning is so freaking good. You know what is coming, 449 00:20:59,520 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 11: you know what they're trying to attempt, and you know 450 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 11: it's coming like in like a second. But normally if 451 00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,360 Speaker 11: you have a second, you know Kenny or elite athlete, 452 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 11: you can't stop everything you know and and a second, 453 00:21:11,800 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 11: it's it's it needs to be. 454 00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 2: Faster than this in order to be surprised. 455 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 11: But us, when I mean I mean them, when we 456 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:23,000 Speaker 11: when you train with them, you know it's coming, but 457 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 11: you can't stop it. And it's very frustrating because these 458 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 11: guys are so freaking good. They use certain leverage point 459 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 11: and they put you in such certain position with their 460 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,720 Speaker 11: pressure that is just unstoppable. 461 00:21:35,760 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 2: It's it's it's something that that. 462 00:21:38,160 --> 00:21:41,159 Speaker 11: You feel when you train with Gardner Ryan, when you 463 00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 11: train with Harder Gracie, that this crazy pressure that it's 464 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 11: not strength, it's they're very strong, don't get me wrong, 465 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:55,480 Speaker 11: but their positioning is just so freaking perfect that makes 466 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:57,919 Speaker 11: you have zero leverage on them. 467 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: Kind of like George Saint Pierre's take down against Tiago 468 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,440 Speaker 1: Alvez at UFC one hundred. I will never forget that night. 469 00:22:04,600 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: Every single takedown was a thing of beauty. You had 470 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: the crowd oohing and eyeing every time you entered. And 471 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 1: as the Great George San Pierre joins us here on 472 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,640 Speaker 1: the five hundredth episode of the Anacan Florian podcast, I bring 473 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,119 Speaker 1: it up in the context of feeling your best on 474 00:22:19,200 --> 00:22:21,959 Speaker 1: fight night, right, because I'd imagine George some nights and 475 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: maybe you didn't feel your best against Alvez. Your performance 476 00:22:25,359 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: was fantastic, but I'd imagine some nights, either warming up 477 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,479 Speaker 1: in the back or with your performance, you just feel 478 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 1: like there's an invincibility there that maybe doesn't accompany you 479 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 1: to the octagon on other nights. Do you remember the 480 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,800 Speaker 1: night upon which you felt your best in your UFC career. 481 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,240 Speaker 11: Well, I'm gonna be one hundred percent honest with you guys. 482 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 11: Everybody react different differently under stress. 483 00:22:49,880 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 2: For me, every. 484 00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 11: Morning that I was fighting, when I woked up, I 485 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 11: felt like shit. I was like, God, damn like not today, 486 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,479 Speaker 11: Oh man, I add a shitty night of sleep. 487 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh my god. But you know what I do. 488 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:12,600 Speaker 2: I used James. 489 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:16,480 Speaker 11: Lange, the theory of James actual. I lie to myself, 490 00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:18,959 Speaker 11: and I lied to my training partner. I lie to 491 00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 11: my coaches, and when they asked me how you slept, 492 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:25,600 Speaker 11: I slept great. I felt good. I'm ready to kick 493 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:31,480 Speaker 11: ass because I strongly believe that you're the way you 494 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:37,560 Speaker 11: carry yourself as a big effect on your mental and 495 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 11: I use that through all my career. Even though I 496 00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:45,720 Speaker 11: was terrified, I was extremely uncomfortable, I pretend to be 497 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 11: invincible and to be one hundred percent sure that I 498 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 11: was going to go out there and succeed. 499 00:23:52,840 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 9: Imagine if it was. 500 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 2: All that was all alie, that was all alive, because 501 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 2: the down inside I was scared as hell. 502 00:23:59,200 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 9: Imagine if you. 503 00:24:00,160 --> 00:24:02,400 Speaker 1: Good, John, isn't that amazing? 504 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 11: Well, there's no way you feel good if you don't 505 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 11: know one hundred percent if you're gonna get badly hurt, humiliated, 506 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:15,680 Speaker 11: or winning the title. I mean, I will feel good 507 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:19,719 Speaker 11: if you tell me, George, you're gonna win a hundred percent. 508 00:24:19,840 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 2: Let's say, let's put it this. 509 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 11: Way, like God would appear to. 510 00:24:23,880 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 2: Me and say tonight, you're gonna wear it one hundred percent. 511 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,200 Speaker 2: Now we'll feel good. But there's no way to know. 512 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 11: So the uncertainty of not knowing if you're gonna be humiliated, 513 00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 11: because what hurts the most is not physically for me, 514 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 11: I was afraid to get hurt, but my ego was. 515 00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 2: The thing that that that that that that hurts the 516 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 2: most if I if I lose, if I. 517 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 11: Put that much work and I end up losing and 518 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,920 Speaker 11: coming short at the end, man and and and disappointing 519 00:24:56,960 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 11: everybody who hailed me like that was the thing that 520 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,120 Speaker 11: I cared most, and that was the thing that hurt 521 00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,719 Speaker 11: me the most. So going out there, I never felt 522 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 11: one hundred percent because the feeling of a certainty it 523 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:11,720 Speaker 11: was for me unbearable. 524 00:25:13,800 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 1: So George, you were a monster on pay per view. 525 00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,480 Speaker 1: You were as beloved as any fighter of your generation, 526 00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,239 Speaker 1: or really of any generation. And I know I'm kind 527 00:25:25,240 --> 00:25:26,800 Speaker 1: of putting you on the spot here, but like, is 528 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: there a fighter that moves the needle for you right now? Like, 529 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: is there a fighter that would have you home on 530 00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,719 Speaker 1: a Saturday night buying a pay per view because you 531 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: want to see that athlete fight live. 532 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,200 Speaker 2: There's a lot of guys really enjoyed to fight guys. 533 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 11: There's a lot of guy that I never missed their 534 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 11: fight because, man, every time they fight, I learned something 535 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:54,640 Speaker 11: from them, Tom espinall John Jones when Symetrius Johnson was fighting, 536 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:55,000 Speaker 11: to me. 537 00:25:55,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 2: Is probably the best ever. Like I always watch his fight. 538 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:07,959 Speaker 11: I like Leon Edwards, Camaru Usman, israel A, Dana. 539 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:09,120 Speaker 2: Man. 540 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:15,959 Speaker 11: There are a ton of guys that Wokanovski, Mkatchev, Armann 541 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 11: is gonna fight Jev. So there's a lot of very 542 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:23,679 Speaker 11: interesting fight coming up that for sure, I'm not gonna miss. 543 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,680 Speaker 2: This for for everything in. 544 00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,959 Speaker 1: The world, Well, all the welterweights are chasing your greatness. 545 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 1: We got Leon Edwards and Bala Muhammad coming up in 546 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,360 Speaker 1: twelve days. We got a couple more minutes here with GSP. 547 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,080 Speaker 1: You think Leon Holds serve as the favorite here and 548 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: retains the title, or do you think Blau might upset 549 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 1: the apple cart. 550 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 2: There's no certainty in the sport. 551 00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 11: You can make the fight ten times and ten different 552 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:49,479 Speaker 11: outcome will happen. 553 00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:55,280 Speaker 2: But if I have to bet, and I like, you know, 554 00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 2: I know Lean. 555 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 11: A little bit, and I'm a little bit biased, right 556 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 11: because I hang out with him a few times. He's 557 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 11: an extremely nice person and I had a great time. 558 00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 11: But I think Leon is better. I think Leon is 559 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 11: champion for a reason because he's better. But it's no 560 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,720 Speaker 11: always the best fighter that wins the fight is the 561 00:27:12,760 --> 00:27:15,120 Speaker 11: fighter that fight the best the night of the fight. 562 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 11: So Leon, if he wants to win, needs to fight 563 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 11: the best fight the night of the fight. 564 00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 1: That's all mattered, well put all right? A few rapid 565 00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:25,520 Speaker 1: fire questions with the great George Saint Pierre on the 566 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,879 Speaker 1: way out here. What is your favorite sports team to 567 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:31,919 Speaker 1: follow that has nothing to do with combat sports? 568 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 2: Hockey? But there's fight the hockey to follow. 569 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 11: It's hockey to watch, yeah, but to play it's basketball. 570 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:41,919 Speaker 1: That gets me into my next question. How old was 571 00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: George Saint Pierre the last time a Canadian team won 572 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:45,080 Speaker 1: the Stanley Cup? 573 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 2: Shoot, it's I think wizn't wow? I was maybe fifteen 574 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,160 Speaker 2: years old? Like a teenager. 575 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,840 Speaker 1: You were twelve. I believe you were born in May 576 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:03,240 Speaker 1: of nineteen eighty one, and the Montreal Canadians, rival of 577 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:06,399 Speaker 1: our Boston Bruins, hoisted Lord Stanley's Cup in nineteen ninety 578 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 1: three when you were twelve. 579 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 11: Wow, I think that the Calgary flames one. I don't 580 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 11: know if it's before or after. 581 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 2: I think it's I think it might be after that. 582 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: Could you imagine if I fucked that up with the 583 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: great SHORTSMPA that was that would be a real disaster. 584 00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:23,199 Speaker 1: All right, I probably fucked that up. My research this 585 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,959 Speaker 1: morning probably failed me. Running versus walking? I am a runner. 586 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:30,639 Speaker 1: I don't know if you practice either, But do you 587 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 1: have any strong opinions on running versus walking? 588 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,120 Speaker 2: I think I don't run. I sprint. 589 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 11: I run to warm up, but I sprint. I think 590 00:28:41,920 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 11: it's it's one of the best exercises you can do 591 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 11: for your testoster run and the level of intensity you 592 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 11: can get and running is very good, and it's something 593 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 11: that you. 594 00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 2: Don't get doing anything else. 595 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 11: So I think it's very important if people don't know 596 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 11: that run not only running. Sprinting like running, but a 597 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,960 Speaker 11: little bit faster that you will normally run like a 598 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 11: sprint because most people after the age of thirty. 599 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: Will never sprint again. Because we've been a very comfortable world. 600 00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 11: So it's important that you put yourself into sprint sometimes 601 00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 11: to make sure you elevate your level of tastas are running. 602 00:29:18,160 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 11: You stay in shape, but make sure you warm up 603 00:29:20,240 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 11: good and don't get hurt. 604 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: Maybe the greatest singular answer right there on the history 605 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: of the Anakin Florian podcast. I'm going to cut up 606 00:29:26,800 --> 00:29:29,760 Speaker 1: that sound bite that says I don't run, I sprint 607 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 1: and that's going to be my new ringtone. All right, 608 00:29:32,640 --> 00:29:33,600 Speaker 1: George on the day, I. 609 00:29:33,920 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 2: Am not a good sprinter. For me, it's a sprint, 610 00:29:36,880 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 2: but for a real track at yeah, me. 611 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,880 Speaker 11: Running is gonna be like, man, this guy doesn't know 612 00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 11: alto sprint. 613 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 2: He stuck trust me. 614 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 11: All right, We'll just try to run a little bit 615 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,000 Speaker 11: faster that you normally do. That we can call a 616 00:29:50,240 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 11: sprint if it's not a real one. 617 00:29:52,520 --> 00:29:54,400 Speaker 1: No, I mean, I've been trying to mix in sprints 618 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: as best I can. Pat Militic has a crazy sprinting 619 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: working workout with intervals. That's absolute hell. All right, before 620 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: we let you go. Most memorable thing about Kenny Florian 621 00:30:05,200 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: as a training partner or friend. I know you guys 622 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: obviously had a time when you spent a lot of 623 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: time together. But before we let you go anything anecdotally 624 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 1: on Kenny Florian. 625 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 11: Oh yeah, I got a good one and he's gonna 626 00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:19,160 Speaker 11: he's gonna remember that.

I think it was the third round. 632 00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:38,920 Speaker 11: I'm going with Kenny Florian and as I'm going to 633 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:42,640 Speaker 11: shoot a takedown, he threw a head kick and I 634 00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:46,239 Speaker 11: get hit in the temple and he freaking dropped me 635 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 11: like I have a flash knockdown.

They don't hit me in the so I'm 663 00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 11: taking it up, down and everything, and I feel like 664 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 11: I'm like, man, I feel great. 665 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 2: I had the best round of my of my life. 666 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:21,840 Speaker 2: But all that because freaking Kenny Florida kicks me in the. 667 00:32:21,880 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 1: Head the one time I hit him. The one time 668 00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: I hit him, that's the one time. 669 00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,840 Speaker 11: And you know, the funny thing is, I didn't know 670 00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 11: that until after the fight. So far as Kenny and 671 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 11: all the guy they told me is like, remember when 672 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 11: the head kick happened. I'm like, yeah, so we told 673 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 11: your training partner in the next round, cannot hit you. 674 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 13: I was like, that's. 675 00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 2: Why I was feeling so good, you bunch of us. 676 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: So that is amazing. 677 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 11: But when I say a good training partner, that's a 678 00:32:54,240 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 11: good example of what is a good training partner, you know. Like, 679 00:32:58,640 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 11: and one of the reason why I was very successful 680 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:05,680 Speaker 11: is because I had the chance to have great training 681 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:09,200 Speaker 11: partners such as Kenny Floria and David Luz you all 682 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:09,760 Speaker 11: those guys. 683 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,320 Speaker 1: How about those three back to back to back.

So I'm 719 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 1: happy to be over that hurdle. But just an absolute 720 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,719 Speaker 1: legend in mind, body, and spirit. 721 00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 7: No question about it. They don't make him like George 722 00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:51,080 Speaker 7: Saint Pierre. There's just not a whole lot of guys 723 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 7: like him. Just the way that he carries himself, the 724 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 7: kind of professionalism that he always exhibits. You know, to 725 00:34:58,200 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 7: see that guy in the training room day the day out. 726 00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,319 Speaker 9: That helped me so much. 727 00:35:02,360 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 7: Even if I never sparred with him one day, and 728 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:06,640 Speaker 7: I sparred with him every single time I was in 729 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:10,879 Speaker 7: that room, but just watching him carry himself, the way 730 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 7: he trains, how much he put into it, that alone 731 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,880 Speaker 7: made me better. So just I feel really lucky that 732 00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 7: I got to know him, that he was a friend 733 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:20,240 Speaker 7: of mine. 734 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 9: And that I got to train with him. 735 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: Hey, Ray, I'm not sure how much of that story 736 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: you heard from George, but Ken Flow landing a head 737 00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,120 Speaker 1: kick as George stopped for a takedown, so he concusses 738 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 1: George as he's getting ready for one of his title defenses. 739 00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:37,280 Speaker 1: The UFC Primetime crew is in the building and knowing 740 00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:39,880 Speaker 1: Kenny the way you and I do can you imagine 741 00:35:39,920 --> 00:35:43,240 Speaker 1: how badly this dude felt like, probably not until George 742 00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:45,719 Speaker 1: beat Dan Hardy, did you actually exhale? 743 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 4: Oh? 744 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 7: B it was it for the haughty fight, right, it 745 00:35:50,239 --> 00:35:53,319 Speaker 7: was for the Dan Hardy fight, and he was here's 746 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 7: the story, so we're all doing fresh rounds. He was 747 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,400 Speaker 7: so overtrained for that fight. And I remember I felt 748 00:36:00,520 --> 00:36:03,600 Speaker 7: terrible about that. And when he was when he was 749 00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 7: going for the single like he actually had for Ross's leg, 750 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 7: he thought he was taking me down. He was actually 751 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,839 Speaker 7: trying to take for Ross down. He was out, and 752 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 7: I remember I went over to the camera crew. I said, 753 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:16,160 Speaker 7: do not show you know, cut that, make sure you 754 00:36:16,200 --> 00:36:18,200 Speaker 7: cut that out. Obviously they probably would have done it anyway, 755 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 7: but like that was I was really worried because he 756 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 7: was already very overtrained, in my opinion. So I happened 757 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 7: to catch him at a you know, at a tough 758 00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 7: round and that that was it. That was it. But 759 00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 7: you know, again, here's a guy that the reason why 760 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 7: he's a champion is he would always find a way 761 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 7: to pull it off no matter what. 762 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:40,960 Speaker 9: That's just who George is. 763 00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 7: And yeah, I remember calling him after that on the 764 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,840 Speaker 7: way home back to Boston, I said, dude, take it. 765 00:36:46,960 --> 00:36:48,280 Speaker 9: Take a couple of days off, please. 766 00:36:48,719 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 8: Yeah. 767 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,239 Speaker 3: And I think he was a perfect example of I 768 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 3: think it's called Kenai constant and ever improvement. Like you know, 769 00:36:56,480 --> 00:36:59,600 Speaker 3: he was always improving. If he made a mistake, he 770 00:36:59,640 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 3: was right back at it. I think he just exemplified 771 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 3: what a champion is and how a champion acts more 772 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 3: more importantly, But it's funny for that fight Hartie was 773 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 3: at was actually training at my gym and he was 774 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 3: training at Sarah's. I wasn't training him. He had he 775 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 3: brought his coach with him, but he would train in 776 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:20,839 Speaker 3: the gym every day and I think he was there 777 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:23,239 Speaker 3: for like three weeks, maybe more. I don't even know. 778 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,399 Speaker 3: So I think I gave him key to the Jim 779 00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 3: he could go in any time he wanted. But that 780 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:30,560 Speaker 3: was a weird, weird thing. And I think that was 781 00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:33,839 Speaker 3: the whole what was not embedded what'd you call it, 782 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:37,560 Speaker 3: Kenny at the time primetime, But you know, that was 783 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,400 Speaker 3: the whole thing that they were going to unleash that 784 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:42,799 Speaker 3: he was training with Sarah before the prime time, so 785 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 3: it was a secret that he was in there, so 786 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,640 Speaker 3: nobody knew where he was that type of deal. So 787 00:37:47,960 --> 00:37:50,440 Speaker 3: those were the good old days, right, That wouldn't have 788 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:54,799 Speaker 3: lasted two seconds today with all the cameras and social media. 789 00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:55,280 Speaker 8: And all that stuff. 790 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, but it's good to hear, good to hear him 791 00:37:57,480 --> 00:37:58,959 Speaker 3: give it up to you. And of course I would 792 00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:03,839 Speaker 3: expect Kenny was a great training partner because you know, look, 793 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:06,879 Speaker 3: I always was a believer too. The way you act 794 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 3: in the octagon is the way you act in life. 795 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 3: And Kenny is a total gentleman. You were always a 796 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 3: competitor and a gentleman in the ring, as was GSP 797 00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 3: and they lived their life like that, and I think 798 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:18,240 Speaker 3: it's a perfect example. 799 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,600 Speaker 1: So the next time I see George Saint Pierre, I'm 800 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,600 Speaker 1: gonna say two things. I'm going to thank him for 801 00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 1: coming on, and I'm gonna say just so you know, 802 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: in your hockey Craze Nation, my research was accurate. Calgary 803 00:38:29,920 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 1: Flames lost the Stanley Cup final in two thousands or 804 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:35,840 Speaker 1: they won their only Stanley Cup nineteen eighty eight nineteen 805 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:39,239 Speaker 1: eighty nine seasons. So yeah, I mean, I don't know 806 00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:41,480 Speaker 1: how many Canadians we have listening to this podcast. I 807 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: love calling fights there. But yeah, George was twelve the 808 00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:48,600 Speaker 1: last time Lord Stanley's Cup had any business residing for 809 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 1: any extended period of time in the Great White North. 810 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 3: So too. First off, craziest fans I have ever been 811 00:38:57,640 --> 00:39:01,440 Speaker 3: a part of that time When Sarah for GSP in Montreal, 812 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 3: it was literally surreal. It was. I know, I've said 813 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 3: this a thousand times. Yeah, there was no corner advice 814 00:39:08,719 --> 00:39:11,759 Speaker 3: because you couldn't hear it. It was bizarre.

Well, 854 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,920 Speaker 7: he was so famous that he had to literally park 855 00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:05,360 Speaker 7: his car on sidewalks, run to the ATM, and run 856 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 7: back to his car because if he walked for like 857 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,759 Speaker 7: a block, he wouldn't be able to get back into 858 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,240 Speaker 7: his car. And George would say yes to every picture 859 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:17,960 Speaker 7: and every autograph, but I've never seen people literally bow 860 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,879 Speaker 7: to him. He'd be driving his car and people would 861 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:24,319 Speaker 7: literally bow to him on the streets of Montreal. 862 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:26,240 Speaker 9: Like he was a god. I mean, it was that level. 863 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,000 Speaker 7: I can't imagine if it was today in twenty twenty four, 864 00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,920 Speaker 7: GSP in twenty twenty four, like, would it just be bananas? 865 00:41:33,160 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 9: Yeah? 866 00:41:33,760 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'll tell you John the You know, if 867 00:41:36,560 --> 00:41:38,839 Speaker 3: you've ever been to Canada, which you have been at 868 00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 3: the border patrol or whatever they call it, you know 869 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:47,439 Speaker 3: it was pretty pretty rough.

Matter of fact, and 871 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:53,479 Speaker 3: that fight, I think two guys from the school were 872 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,479 Speaker 3: in jail. They had it. They put one guy in jail. 873 00:41:56,520 --> 00:41:59,600 Speaker 3: One guy they saw his record. They escorted him right 874 00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,960 Speaker 3: back to the plane.

Yeah, 881 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,800 Speaker 3: they were all over it, you know. But I remember 882 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:23,480 Speaker 3: even trying to get some need. I had the school 883 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:26,640 Speaker 3: jacket on. They maybe waited about two hours. I think 884 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,000 Speaker 3: I left. It was brutal.

Fuck you? 1042 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: And it was certainly a viral memorable moment.

She's with great people, and 1150 00:54:36,520 --> 00:54:38,920 Speaker 3: like again, I like it when you know she was outsize. 1151 00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 3: She took it last minute, high altitude. They told her 1152 00:54:42,080 --> 00:54:44,439 Speaker 3: she needed a knockout. A lot of people you tell 1153 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 3: that too. They do the same fucking thing they always did. 1154 00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:49,680 Speaker 3: She went out with swinging for the defences, was making 1155 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,759 Speaker 3: a great account of herself just a little just outsize 1156 00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,359 Speaker 3: that was the difference in the fight. So I think 1157 00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 3: that's why the crowd even got a little antsy with Jasmine, 1158 00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:01,480 Speaker 3: Who's it was an awesome fight. I had nothing to 1159 00:55:01,520 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 3: do with the fight. I think it was more that, 1160 00:55:03,200 --> 00:55:07,400 Speaker 3: you know, the last minute undersized. I think she probably 1161 00:55:07,400 --> 00:55:10,640 Speaker 3: should have acknowledged that would have been better all for her. Yeah, 1162 00:55:10,640 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 3: but all good, all good. I think that was that 1163 00:55:12,719 --> 00:55:15,879 Speaker 3: was about it. And I think Tracy cortezli grow from 1164 00:55:15,880 --> 00:55:20,000 Speaker 3: that fight. Thought Rose looked. You know, Rose gets it, man, 1165 00:55:20,239 --> 00:55:23,240 Speaker 3: with the fakes and the foot work, and she's set 1166 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:27,680 Speaker 3: you up for stuff. And I think, you know, Tracy's 1167 00:55:27,680 --> 00:55:30,239 Speaker 3: with a great camp. They go back, they make some corrections, 1168 00:55:30,239 --> 00:55:32,000 Speaker 3: and they keep her active. I think you'll see a 1169 00:55:32,000 --> 00:55:32,680 Speaker 3: different person. 1170 00:55:32,840 --> 00:55:36,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, kamar Usman acknowledged the footwork of ros Nama 1171 00:55:36,880 --> 00:55:40,360 Speaker 1: units and just being mesurrized by the ambidexterous nature of 1172 00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,280 Speaker 1: it and training, you know, and then watching her obviously 1173 00:55:43,800 --> 00:55:46,279 Speaker 1: put forth in the octagon. So if you don't know, 1174 00:55:46,360 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 1: Ray was referencing real quickly a prelim win for Jasmine 1175 00:55:49,040 --> 00:55:52,200 Speaker 1: Jazz the Busiest over Fatima Klin. Unanimous decision thirty twenty 1176 00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,880 Speaker 1: seven times three Klin twenty three years old, was undefeated 1177 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,560 Speaker 1: stepping up on short notice. One other thing I had 1178 00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,439 Speaker 1: for you guys on the main event when it comes 1179 00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 1: to Tracy Cortes versus another top twelve light contender like 1180 00:56:04,160 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 1: Diego Lopez and the men's featherweight division, and contenders come 1181 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:11,360 Speaker 1: in all different shapes and sizes, right, But Diego Lopez 1182 00:56:11,440 --> 00:56:14,560 Speaker 1: right now believes he needs to be ready to beat 1183 00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:18,000 Speaker 1: Ilia Topodia, the division's champion in three weeks ray Right. 1184 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:21,439 Speaker 1: And this is not to suggest that Tracy Cortes wasn't 1185 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:25,080 Speaker 1: ready to beat top flight contender rosanami Unis a week 1186 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:28,239 Speaker 1: before her fight was to happen, right, But in terms 1187 00:56:28,280 --> 00:56:32,160 Speaker 1: of where Tracy Cortes is right now relative to other contenders, right, 1188 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,799 Speaker 1: Diego Lopez is of a mindset that I think a 1189 00:56:35,800 --> 00:56:37,919 Speaker 1: lot of the leaf fighters need to be of, which 1190 00:56:37,960 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: is to say, I need to be able to make 1191 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 1: championship weight and fight the best guys in the world 1192 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,920 Speaker 1: for a certain amount of time. And I know it's 1193 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:48,279 Speaker 1: idealistic or ambitious to think that you can do that 1194 00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:52,360 Speaker 1: for three years time and you know, be prime. But 1195 00:56:53,880 --> 00:56:56,520 Speaker 1: I feel like Tracy Cortes, you know, cutting the hair 1196 00:56:56,520 --> 00:56:58,719 Speaker 1: for the weight. Hopefully she gets back in there, but 1197 00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think I think every contender is built differently, 1198 00:57:01,640 --> 00:57:04,080 Speaker 1: and I think right now, you know Tracy has a 1199 00:57:04,080 --> 00:57:06,600 Speaker 1: two or three year build, whereas other guys ranked twelve 1200 00:57:06,640 --> 00:57:08,760 Speaker 1: in the world are ready to fight for the world title. 1201 00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:13,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that's a fair assessment, and I like, 1202 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 3: even though you think it's idealistic, I think if you're 1203 00:57:16,000 --> 00:57:20,200 Speaker 3: a fighter, it at least starts with thinking like a fighter, 1204 00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 3: which is what he's doing. Can he hold today? I 1205 00:57:23,440 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 3: think he's young enough to hold to that man with Listen, 1206 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 3: you know where he comes from. This is this is 1207 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:30,760 Speaker 3: a huge deal, you know what I mean. Like again, 1208 00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:34,040 Speaker 3: if you're sitting in you don't need anything and you're 1209 00:57:34,280 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 3: pretty well aw fighting without fighting, with fighting, it makes 1210 00:57:38,240 --> 00:57:40,919 Speaker 3: a difference. I think this kid, I like what he said, 1211 00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:44,160 Speaker 3: and I agree one hundred percent with Kenny. 1212 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,640 Speaker 1: Where do you stand as far as contenders trying to 1213 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:52,960 Speaker 1: be ready for not just short noticed opportunities, but big 1214 00:57:53,040 --> 00:57:57,520 Speaker 1: time championship stake type fights that happen without training camps 1215 00:57:57,520 --> 00:57:58,360 Speaker 1: on the front end of them. 1216 00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:00,640 Speaker 9: Well, I think as a fighter, if trying to be 1217 00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:01,000 Speaker 9: the best. 1218 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:03,560 Speaker 7: If you're truly trying to be a world champion, you 1219 00:58:04,160 --> 00:58:07,520 Speaker 7: have to be watching everybody and seeing what the best 1220 00:58:07,560 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 7: in the world are doing, how are they performing, what 1221 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:11,960 Speaker 7: are the things that you need to be prepared for. 1222 00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:16,080 Speaker 7: And you know, that's why you have to be a 1223 00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 7: martial artist, meaning always trying to get better, always trying 1224 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,760 Speaker 7: to evolve, and even having that in your head that 1225 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 7: if I had to fight the current champion tomorrow or 1226 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 7: in three weeks, I have to be ready for that, dude. 1227 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:32,280 Speaker 7: And that's the mindset of a champion. That's the mindset 1228 00:58:32,280 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 7: of a martial artist. And I think that's what Jego 1229 00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:37,440 Speaker 7: Lopez has and that's what makes him different, I think 1230 00:58:37,440 --> 00:58:38,240 Speaker 7: from a lot of guys. 1231 00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:40,680 Speaker 9: And also I think that's the value of how he 1232 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:41,440 Speaker 9: was brought. 1233 00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:44,080 Speaker 7: Up in the sport. He had a ton of experience 1234 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 7: before he got into the UFC, so by the time 1235 00:58:45,840 --> 00:58:48,320 Speaker 7: he got into UFC, he was ready to go. And 1236 00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:50,720 Speaker 7: then you see the level of competition that he's had 1237 00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 7: and the experiences that he's had, he is coming up 1238 00:58:54,240 --> 00:58:58,520 Speaker 7: the right way. From his management to his coaching. Yeah, 1239 00:58:58,520 --> 00:58:59,480 Speaker 7: it's impressive. 1240 00:58:59,480 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 9: Man. 1241 00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,640 Speaker 1: Sometimes if you're a weight bully and I say that's 1242 00:59:03,680 --> 00:59:06,200 Speaker 1: somewhat tongue in cheek. This can be a harder thing 1243 00:59:06,440 --> 00:59:09,680 Speaker 1: to do, but I do find it fascinating when we 1244 00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 1: talk to different athletes, when some fighters will say, yeah, 1245 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:15,160 Speaker 1: look forward to getting this fight done, and then you know, 1246 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:17,760 Speaker 1: I'm going to take four months off and all respect 1247 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:22,000 Speaker 1: to developmental time. But you know, when you're on the 1248 00:59:22,040 --> 00:59:26,000 Speaker 1: cusp of something, you know we don't need time off. 1249 00:59:26,040 --> 00:59:27,560 Speaker 1: You know, I feel like you need to be ready, 1250 00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:30,840 Speaker 1: Like Steve Erseeg was right to beat Alesandre Pantosia a 1251 00:59:30,840 --> 00:59:33,919 Speaker 1: couple of months after you you fight for the title. Yeah, 1252 00:59:34,000 --> 00:59:38,440 Speaker 1: all right, So Poomi Nakuda Ray six weeks or so 1253 00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:41,320 Speaker 1: since his last win, he's eight tozer. Now Dana White's 1254 00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:44,440 Speaker 1: Contender Series is coming back, and this dovetails into the 1255 00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:47,960 Speaker 1: conversation about even a guy like Poomy right being ready 1256 00:59:48,000 --> 00:59:50,400 Speaker 1: for a short notice opportunity like Erseg was to fight 1257 00:59:50,480 --> 00:59:53,200 Speaker 1: David Devorak. Granted Devorax no longer in the UFC, but 1258 00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,080 Speaker 1: can you tell us anything about Poomy if the Contender 1259 00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:59,320 Speaker 1: Series is calling, and you know how receptive you think 1260 00:59:59,360 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 1: he'd be to a potential short notice, high profile opportunity. 1261 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:06,440 Speaker 3: Oh, I could tell you how receptive. It'll be very receptive. 1262 01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:09,600 Speaker 3: I worked out with him yesterday. He's a guy to 1263 01:00:09,720 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 3: he's kind of living that he's always ready to go. 1264 01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:16,080 Speaker 3: We spot on Saturday. He's got nothing coming up, you 1265 01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,040 Speaker 3: know what I mean. So he's of that mindset. We've 1266 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 3: talked about it and he knows that he has to 1267 01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,800 Speaker 3: be ready because I just think the way things are going, 1268 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:27,520 Speaker 3: if he gets in, it's not going to be to 1269 01:00:27,560 --> 01:00:30,000 Speaker 3: his advantage. I mean that's what I tell him. I go, 1270 01:00:30,120 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 3: it's not going to be your advantage. So you have 1271 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,720 Speaker 3: to stay ready and you have to be ready to go. 1272 01:00:36,840 --> 01:00:37,200 Speaker 13: All right. 1273 01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 1: I have a few other things I want to get 1274 01:00:38,680 --> 01:00:42,280 Speaker 1: to with Ray Longo, Amanda Lemo, Shavina Jangi.

I 1280 01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: would assume, yes, you're just obsessed. Yeah, Like what does 1281 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 1: your wife say?

What are you talking about? 1284 01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:15,040 Speaker 1: So she just understands that a Vina Jenjidoba's fighting, that 1285 01:01:15,080 --> 01:01:15,479 Speaker 1: you're home. 1286 01:01:16,000 --> 01:01:20,560 Speaker 3: She just understands if two turtles are fighting, I'm home. Yeah, yeah, 1287 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 3: that's what she understands. 1288 01:01:22,120 --> 01:01:23,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I love you. 1289 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,520 Speaker 3: Get a cat, a guinea pig.

Do you have anything for us on the 1302 01:02:05,920 --> 01:02:06,440 Speaker 1: main event? 1303 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:08,080 Speaker 4: Uh? 1304 01:02:08,160 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 3: Man, I like, uh, I can't pronounce his name, Jan Gioga. 1305 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 3: It is that close. 1306 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:16,360 Speaker 1: You want to hear her say it? 1307 01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:17,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, let me say it. 1308 01:02:19,080 --> 01:02:22,280 Speaker 18: Vienna, Oh you know at. 1309 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:33,080 Speaker 3: Jean Jesus very I like her. I like, I think 1310 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 3: she's a scrapper and yeah, I'm going, but I got nothing. 1311 01:02:37,520 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 3: He just killed me with that. 1312 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 6: That's what. 1313 01:02:41,520 --> 01:02:43,440 Speaker 3: I didn't even hear the name. I hear cock, and 1314 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:46,200 Speaker 3: I'm just fucking let's go. 1315 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:49,080 Speaker 1: You do get very excited. Oh you hear that word? 1316 01:02:49,240 --> 01:02:51,320 Speaker 1: Can I hear that file? Just one more time? 1317 01:02:51,320 --> 01:02:52,400 Speaker 3: Cod, Yeah, let's hear it again. 1318 01:02:52,440 --> 01:02:52,800 Speaker 6: I like it. 1319 01:02:58,520 --> 01:03:04,560 Speaker 1: Ra Jean Jove, we are going to tweak the pronunciation 1320 01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:07,080 Speaker 1: of the week, but we have to have the ability 1321 01:03:07,120 --> 01:03:08,040 Speaker 1: to play files like that. 1322 01:03:08,080 --> 01:03:11,160 Speaker 3: Go ahead. I think that means silent and rain in Brazil, 1323 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:11,919 Speaker 3: but I'm not sure. 1324 01:03:13,400 --> 01:03:17,080 Speaker 1: Do you know what it is? It's a falcon type bird. 1325 01:03:17,760 --> 01:03:20,680 Speaker 1: And I was having a conversation with Joe Rogan trying 1326 01:03:20,680 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 1: to convince him to book a falcon, falconeer, falconer, Kenny, 1327 01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:28,400 Speaker 1: a falconer, somebody who handles falcons. Yeah, I love it 1328 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:32,200 Speaker 1: on the Joe Rogan Experience. I just thought it would 1329 01:03:32,280 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 1: be better on that show than the Anak and Florian podcast, 1330 01:03:34,880 --> 01:03:37,360 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. So hopefully you see a 1331 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,720 Speaker 1: falconer at some point. But it's a good nickname for 1332 01:03:39,880 --> 01:03:42,840 Speaker 1: vnet Jangi Doba, who Ray Longo likes as a slight 1333 01:03:42,920 --> 01:03:44,320 Speaker 1: favorite this way. 1334 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:47,440 Speaker 3: You see did you see the Eric Weinstein thing with 1335 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:48,920 Speaker 3: Terrence Howard on Rogan? 1336 01:03:50,880 --> 01:03:51,040 Speaker 2: No? 1337 01:03:51,080 --> 01:03:51,440 Speaker 1: I did not. 1338 01:03:53,120 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 3: Kenny, I don't think I've ever felt so stupid in 1339 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:59,120 Speaker 3: my life. It was you might as well, Joe Jibaba, 1340 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:01,040 Speaker 3: I don't even know. It's the same to him, it 1341 01:04:01,120 --> 01:04:03,040 Speaker 3: was I don't know what the hell was going on. 1342 01:04:03,160 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 3: I give I give Joe a lot of credit if 1343 01:04:05,800 --> 01:04:09,480 Speaker 3: he was even remotely in that conversation. Yeah, that guy, 1344 01:04:09,480 --> 01:04:12,520 Speaker 3: he's got a big brain. Oh, there's no doubt. There 1345 01:04:12,560 --> 01:04:16,280 Speaker 3: is no doubt. All right, final thing before we let 1346 01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:20,200 Speaker 3: you go on this five hundredth episode of the Anak 1347 01:04:20,200 --> 01:04:22,880 Speaker 3: and Florian Podcast. It is our pole question for this 1348 01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:26,000 Speaker 3: special iteration of this show. So ray I want you 1349 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:29,560 Speaker 3: to listen closely. Now you can only answer this question 1350 01:04:30,440 --> 01:04:32,520 Speaker 3: a little bit limitedly, but I just wanted to throw 1351 01:04:32,560 --> 01:04:35,360 Speaker 3: it your way and Kenny will get your thoughts once 1352 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,720 Speaker 3: we outro Raymond with respect to his time. So it's 1353 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,520 Speaker 3: ambitious to think we could get three title fights at 1354 01:04:41,560 --> 01:04:45,800 Speaker 3: the Sphere come September fourteenth. But of the rumored championship 1355 01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:49,400 Speaker 3: matchups for UFC three h six, in whom are you 1356 01:04:49,480 --> 01:04:53,520 Speaker 3: most confident to get the win Ilio Topoitia against Max Holloway, 1357 01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:57,440 Speaker 3: Max Holloway against Ilia Topotia, Sean O'Malley against Marob Dwallish 1358 01:04:57,480 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 3: Willy or mirob dwallash Willy against Sugar Shotan O'Malley. Now 1359 01:05:01,560 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 3: Valentina Chef Chanko and Alexa Grosso we're going. 1360 01:05:03,680 --> 01:05:06,280 Speaker 1: To fight on that date. So could you imagine if 1361 01:05:06,280 --> 01:05:08,520 Speaker 1: we got a champions triple header at the Spirit be 1362 01:05:08,520 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 1: fucking insane? But Ray, that was today's pole question, and 1363 01:05:12,120 --> 01:05:15,760 Speaker 1: obviously you're the most confident in your guy Morob to 1364 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,880 Speaker 1: wrest the belt away from Shaan O'Malley. Forty two percent 1365 01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:24,080 Speaker 1: of respondents like Max Holloway, twenty three percent like Shaan O'Malley, 1366 01:05:24,600 --> 01:05:28,840 Speaker 1: nineteen percent like Morob, and sixteen percent only sixteen percent 1367 01:05:29,200 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 1: like Ilio Toputia against Max Holloway. 1368 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:34,480 Speaker 3: Oh Man, that's interesting. 1369 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, So you don't have anything for us other than 1370 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:40,560 Speaker 1: two thumbs up on Morab at the Sphere come September. 1371 01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 3: Oh man, Look, I'm hoping for it.

A little 1396 01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:54,760 Speaker 3: vitamin elk ny no day better than anything you could do. 1397 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:56,240 Speaker 3: Make it easy, guys, out, I. 1398 01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:58,880 Speaker 1: Am y and shout out to Ray Longo's minute men, 1399 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,160 Speaker 1: that group of loyal lists that have been supporting him 1400 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:04,440 Speaker 1: every step of the way. All right, So Kenny, I'm 1401 01:07:04,440 --> 01:07:07,280 Speaker 1: gonna have you answer the pole question. But part of 1402 01:07:07,320 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 1: the reason I brought up the sphere this week is 1403 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 1: in part because we're between these two UFC fight nights 1404 01:07:13,360 --> 01:07:15,040 Speaker 1: and we had a week before the pay per view, 1405 01:07:15,040 --> 01:07:18,400 Speaker 1: but also because it's July fifteenth and I'm booking my flight. 1406 01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:22,760 Speaker 1: It's less than eight weeks out, and I believe Chef 1407 01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:27,600 Speaker 1: Schenko and Grosso is happening at that event, right, So 1408 01:07:28,440 --> 01:07:31,840 Speaker 1: Ray Longo, hopefully he's offline now. He just dropped New York, right, 1409 01:07:31,920 --> 01:07:34,640 Speaker 1: So it sounds to me like he has been told 1410 01:07:34,680 --> 01:07:38,760 Speaker 1: by Marob Dwallish, Willie or somebody that it's either going 1411 01:07:38,840 --> 01:07:41,520 Speaker 1: to be New York or September. And because the Sphere 1412 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:44,400 Speaker 1: is now less than eight weeks out, maybe it's gonna 1413 01:07:44,400 --> 01:07:48,520 Speaker 1: be Morob and Sean O'Malley in November. MSG little bit 1414 01:07:48,520 --> 01:07:49,480 Speaker 1: of a home game from a. 1415 01:07:49,520 --> 01:07:51,920 Speaker 9: Rob there, that would be crazy. 1416 01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:53,400 Speaker 1: Gosh. 1417 01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean New York makes a heck heck of 1418 01:07:56,320 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 7: a lot of sense, so does the Sphere. I mean 1419 01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:03,280 Speaker 7: that would be in regards to the event, you know, 1420 01:08:03,880 --> 01:08:05,640 Speaker 7: I'm not sure it makes sense for that, but that's 1421 01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:08,600 Speaker 7: such a big fight with such a big venue. 1422 01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 9: I mean, that's a massive one. That would be unreal. 1423 01:08:13,800 --> 01:08:18,000 Speaker 1: I don't know that the sphere needs more than Grosso 1424 01:08:18,120 --> 01:08:22,280 Speaker 1: Shevchenko three and Ilios Toputia versus Max Holloway. You know, 1425 01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:25,200 Speaker 1: I mean imagine doing all three of those title fights. 1426 01:08:25,240 --> 01:08:27,120 Speaker 1: I'm sort of just marinating on this for a little bit, 1427 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,879 Speaker 1: but Kenny real quickly in terms of those two potential 1428 01:08:30,000 --> 01:08:35,439 Speaker 1: championship matchups, Holloway versus Topuritia and then Morob challenging Sugar 1429 01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:37,760 Speaker 1: Shan O'Malley. I know it's a tough question. Maybe not, 1430 01:08:37,880 --> 01:08:39,800 Speaker 1: I thought it was a fucking good question. Maybe not 1431 01:08:41,120 --> 01:08:43,360 Speaker 1: of those four, you know, if you're forced to make 1432 01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,840 Speaker 1: a bet, I mean, the favorites I would assume are 1433 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:50,600 Speaker 1: going to be the champions, Topoitia and O'Malley, Well, I 1434 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:53,200 Speaker 1: don't know. I mean, you have Morob with his matchup. 1435 01:08:53,360 --> 01:08:57,840 Speaker 7: We have yet to really see a good grappler, right 1436 01:08:58,360 --> 01:08:59,439 Speaker 7: do well against O'Malley. 1437 01:08:59,479 --> 01:09:02,400 Speaker 9: We had al Joe, but you know obviously it didn't 1438 01:09:02,400 --> 01:09:02,840 Speaker 9: go great. 1439 01:09:05,200 --> 01:09:10,519 Speaker 1: You know, Oh, this just train continues.

Thing I 1468 01:10:23,160 --> 01:10:25,840 Speaker 1: brought to raise attention today because we're sort of going 1469 01:10:25,880 --> 01:10:27,680 Speaker 1: back into some of the archives. You know, when we 1470 01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:32,000 Speaker 1: launched this show in twenty fifteen, you were the Champion 1471 01:10:32,040 --> 01:10:35,120 Speaker 1: of the World, and like a month later you made 1472 01:10:35,320 --> 01:10:38,600 Speaker 1: a title defense against vtor Belfort. And I'm curious, like 1473 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:41,559 Speaker 1: if that feels like a lifetime ago for you, like 1474 01:10:41,640 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 1: it did for long ago, But that's where we were 1475 01:10:43,600 --> 01:10:45,880 Speaker 1: at when we launched this fucking thing, like ten years ago. 1476 01:10:46,479 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 10: Yes, it does feel a lifetime ago. It's crazy. It's 1477 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:52,880 Speaker 10: still it still is weird.

Yeah, 1479 01:10:56,880 --> 01:10:58,880 Speaker 10: nine and a half that belt it was ten years 1480 01:10:59,240 --> 01:11:01,280 Speaker 10: was eleven years yars ago now against Anderson now was 1481 01:11:01,280 --> 01:11:06,200 Speaker 10: twenty thirteen, and yeah Vitor was twenty fifteen. Yeah, it's 1482 01:11:06,240 --> 01:11:08,519 Speaker 10: all it's all almost like a blur at this point. 1483 01:11:08,760 --> 01:11:13,760 Speaker 10: It's it's definitely weird.

I'd 1688 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,559 Speaker 10: have to work my way up. I think maybe I'm wrong. 1689 01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:53,240 Speaker 10: If I'm wrong, then I'm all in. But that means 1690 01:19:53,280 --> 01:19:55,599 Speaker 10: I'd be doing every weekend.

I 1705 01:20:32,200 --> 01:20:33,360 Speaker 4: enjoyed it's a great job. 1706 01:20:34,280 --> 01:20:35,880 Speaker 10: I have fun doing it every time I do it, 1707 01:20:36,040 --> 01:20:38,840 Speaker 10: But at this point to like almost start as a 1708 01:20:38,920 --> 01:20:41,439 Speaker 10: rook and work my way up, it'd be tough. If 1709 01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:43,320 Speaker 10: I could just jump in there and be like the 1710 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:46,160 Speaker 10: Daniel Cormier and do the shows that he's doing, which 1711 01:20:46,200 --> 01:20:47,800 Speaker 10: is he's got a great thing going for him, but 1712 01:20:47,840 --> 01:20:51,280 Speaker 10: he worked his way into that spot. Me and him 1713 01:20:51,320 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 10: started around the same time for Fox and I kind 1714 01:20:54,439 --> 01:20:57,439 Speaker 10: of fell off.

I'd be missing 1719 01:21:07,720 --> 01:21:10,320 Speaker 10: too many things with my kids, and I'd hate myself 1720 01:21:10,360 --> 01:21:10,639 Speaker 10: for it. 1721 01:21:11,720 --> 01:21:13,680 Speaker 4: But that's why the Way show is great.

You've been doing television work, 1822 01:25:33,080 --> 01:25:35,640 Speaker 1: you know. Do you think coaching, even if it was 1823 01:25:35,680 --> 01:25:38,439 Speaker 1: selectively having a few athletes that you cornered in a 1824 01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:41,920 Speaker 1: big show would be something that allows you to scratch 1825 01:25:41,960 --> 01:25:45,400 Speaker 1: some sort of competitive itch like Does that appeal to 1826 01:25:45,439 --> 01:25:45,840 Speaker 1: you at all? 1827 01:25:47,080 --> 01:25:47,519 Speaker 20: It does. 1828 01:25:47,760 --> 01:25:50,479 Speaker 19: The thing that doesn't like is building a fighter up 1829 01:25:50,479 --> 01:25:52,640 Speaker 19: from a kid and teaching them the basics of jiu 1830 01:25:52,720 --> 01:25:56,960 Speaker 19: jitsu and the fundamental stuff I have before I worked 1831 01:25:57,000 --> 01:25:59,759 Speaker 19: with other guys who have already established, you know, have careers, 1832 01:26:00,240 --> 01:26:02,680 Speaker 19: and helped him out where I see I can, and 1833 01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:04,360 Speaker 19: I love to going through fight week with him and 1834 01:26:04,439 --> 01:26:07,120 Speaker 19: you know, making the walk to the cage and cornering them. 1835 01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:10,680 Speaker 19: I enjoy that stuff. But it's to not have like 1836 01:26:10,720 --> 01:26:14,559 Speaker 19: a structured school it's how do I do that. It's 1837 01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:16,720 Speaker 19: hard to just jump in people's corners. So it's guys 1838 01:26:16,720 --> 01:26:18,960 Speaker 19: who I've trained with in the past and have experience 1839 01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:20,720 Speaker 19: with in the gym at American Top Team who I 1840 01:26:20,760 --> 01:26:21,320 Speaker 19: help out with. 1841 01:26:22,400 --> 01:26:24,519 Speaker 7: Is that something you'd like to do in the future, 1842 01:26:24,600 --> 01:26:26,479 Speaker 7: is kind of be a mentor or coach for other 1843 01:26:26,520 --> 01:26:29,320 Speaker 7: guys right now? 1844 01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:31,080 Speaker 20: Like, it's not something I'm chasing, but I do enjoy 1845 01:26:31,120 --> 01:26:31,599 Speaker 20: it for sure. 1846 01:26:33,000 --> 01:26:36,120 Speaker 7: Is there someone either at ATT or someone that you've 1847 01:26:36,120 --> 01:26:38,080 Speaker 7: worked with or seen that you think, you know, we 1848 01:26:38,120 --> 01:26:40,280 Speaker 7: should keep an eye out for someone you think can 1849 01:26:40,320 --> 01:26:43,120 Speaker 7: really go far into sport that maybe's just starting their 1850 01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:44,960 Speaker 7: career or isn't in the UFC yet. 1851 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:49,519 Speaker 19: I think there was one named Johnny Evlin, but now 1852 01:26:49,560 --> 01:26:52,599 Speaker 19: the whole world knows about him. I was when people 1853 01:26:52,600 --> 01:26:55,120 Speaker 19: are asking me this same question, you know, a few 1854 01:26:55,160 --> 01:26:56,880 Speaker 19: years ago. I was telling him, saying, man, this guy 1855 01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 19: right here is incredible, and now he's a world champion 1856 01:26:59,320 --> 01:27:02,800 Speaker 19: and he's you know, creating his own legacy. But an 1857 01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:05,479 Speaker 19: another guy I think who has a lot of upside 1858 01:27:05,600 --> 01:27:06,639 Speaker 19: is a guy named Cody law. 1859 01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:08,400 Speaker 20: I believe he's fighting in the PFL now. 1860 01:27:08,439 --> 01:27:12,280 Speaker 19: He was with belatour a longtime wrestler, does his camps 1861 01:27:12,280 --> 01:27:14,120 Speaker 19: in the American Top Team, but he can box. I 1862 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:16,559 Speaker 19: think he has an amateur boxing background as well. He 1863 01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,439 Speaker 19: can box, has good Jiu Jitsus Cardio is good and 1864 01:27:19,479 --> 01:27:22,080 Speaker 19: he's committed to the to the fight game. So I 1865 01:27:22,080 --> 01:27:23,160 Speaker 19: think Cody's going to go far. 1866 01:27:24,360 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 7: And Dustin and I know you've mentioned that you want 1867 01:27:26,160 --> 01:27:28,920 Speaker 7: to do at least one one more fight. How does 1868 01:27:28,960 --> 01:27:32,000 Speaker 7: that mind shift a little bit? You know, You've been 1869 01:27:32,040 --> 01:27:35,479 Speaker 7: in pursuit of that world championship for so long and 1870 01:27:35,479 --> 01:27:37,160 Speaker 7: now you see you want to have one more fight. 1871 01:27:37,479 --> 01:27:39,439 Speaker 9: Does it shift? If at all? 1872 01:27:41,800 --> 01:27:45,160 Speaker 19: It's just almost the shift needs to be like internally 1873 01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:48,160 Speaker 19: about what the motivation for a fighting is, you know, 1874 01:27:48,160 --> 01:27:50,080 Speaker 19: because if it's not about the world title, like why 1875 01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:54,840 Speaker 19: am I fighting? And uh, it's And after the Islam fight, 1876 01:27:54,840 --> 01:27:56,439 Speaker 19: when I got back home, you know, you know Kenny, 1877 01:27:56,439 --> 01:27:58,600 Speaker 19: I thought like maybe this is it. And then a 1878 01:27:58,680 --> 01:28:01,920 Speaker 19: few weeks went by in he started hurting less and less, 1879 01:28:02,080 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 19: you know, postfight, and I was like, I got to 1880 01:28:04,240 --> 01:28:06,280 Speaker 19: do this again. I've never lost two in a row. 1881 01:28:06,520 --> 01:28:09,960 Speaker 19: I can't lead this sport on a loss. But at 1882 01:28:09,960 --> 01:28:12,000 Speaker 19: the same time, it's like I don't want to. I 1883 01:28:12,040 --> 01:28:13,519 Speaker 19: want to be one hundred percent in it if I'm 1884 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:14,920 Speaker 19: going to do it again, because I don't want to 1885 01:28:15,080 --> 01:28:18,040 Speaker 19: disrespect the sport. You know, I honor this stuff I do, 1886 01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:19,920 Speaker 19: and I just want to do it right. But I 1887 01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:22,720 Speaker 19: just want to get my hand raised and leave on 1888 01:28:22,840 --> 01:28:25,479 Speaker 19: my terms with a win. Man, But that's a guaranteed. 1889 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:27,639 Speaker 19: I go back out there and I could somebody could 1890 01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:28,320 Speaker 19: whip my ass. 1891 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:28,920 Speaker 20: That's the thing. 1892 01:28:29,520 --> 01:28:31,320 Speaker 1: Well, And the other thing too, is that you're still 1893 01:28:31,360 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 1: so good right now. I mean, you nearly won the 1894 01:28:34,360 --> 01:28:36,519 Speaker 1: undisputed title a couple of months ago, so it's like, 1895 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:39,200 Speaker 1: then you go win and then they offer you a shot. 1896 01:28:39,280 --> 01:28:41,439 Speaker 1: You know, it's like one more green stripe on the 1897 01:28:41,479 --> 01:28:44,280 Speaker 1: Wikipedia page could very well mean one more title fight, 1898 01:28:44,400 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 1: so it sounds like one more in theory. But you know, 1899 01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:50,040 Speaker 1: a win could put you to right back where you know, 1900 01:28:50,160 --> 01:28:50,920 Speaker 1: maybe you want to be. 1901 01:28:52,680 --> 01:28:54,519 Speaker 20: Yeah, that's the That's the thing I was saying going 1902 01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:55,559 Speaker 20: into the BSD fight. 1903 01:28:55,840 --> 01:29:01,559 Speaker 19: I like, if I beat this guy, if I'm knocking 1904 01:29:01,560 --> 01:29:03,320 Speaker 19: out to submit him and the world's talking about it, 1905 01:29:03,600 --> 01:29:06,000 Speaker 19: I could get a title shot just for my track record. 1906 01:29:06,520 --> 01:29:08,960 Speaker 19: But having done that and then got the title shot, 1907 01:29:09,000 --> 01:29:10,960 Speaker 19: like I kind of thought I could. I just don't 1908 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:12,760 Speaker 19: know if I'm want to win one went away from 1909 01:29:12,760 --> 01:29:15,439 Speaker 19: that again, I don't know, because I definitely the world 1910 01:29:15,479 --> 01:29:17,160 Speaker 19: title is still something I want, but I don't. I 1911 01:29:17,200 --> 01:29:19,040 Speaker 19: don't have like another title run in me. I'm not 1912 01:29:19,080 --> 01:29:21,920 Speaker 19: going to fight three to five times, you know. I 1913 01:29:22,000 --> 01:29:25,960 Speaker 19: just I could physically, I could, but I just have 1914 01:29:26,000 --> 01:29:28,800 Speaker 19: so much going on and I'm trying to take care 1915 01:29:28,840 --> 01:29:29,320 Speaker 19: of my body. 1916 01:29:29,600 --> 01:29:30,080 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1917 01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:32,559 Speaker 1: Well, in terms of this one fight, you and I 1918 01:29:32,640 --> 01:29:35,680 Speaker 1: had a discussion recently, and I know you don't like 1919 01:29:35,720 --> 01:29:37,760 Speaker 1: when I put the shine on your TV work, but 1920 01:29:37,800 --> 01:29:39,639 Speaker 1: you did a great job and your voice just carries 1921 01:29:39,680 --> 01:29:41,679 Speaker 1: so much weight no matter what's coming out of your mouth. 1922 01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:46,799 Speaker 1: But as we were talking off camera about one more fight, possible, 1923 01:29:46,880 --> 01:29:50,280 Speaker 1: last hurrah or not. When we talk about opponents, there 1924 01:29:50,320 --> 01:29:52,360 Speaker 1: aren't like a ton of them that make a lot 1925 01:29:52,400 --> 01:29:55,560 Speaker 1: of fiscal and competitive sense. One name that I suggested 1926 01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:59,320 Speaker 1: was Nate Diaz, and I don't know if it's seventy 1927 01:29:59,320 --> 01:30:01,280 Speaker 1: five percent, Jordy, but I got a lot of the 1928 01:30:01,320 --> 01:30:03,639 Speaker 1: fan base coming at me or scoffing at the notion 1929 01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:07,040 Speaker 1: that Horier versus Diaz in twenty twenty four is competitive 1930 01:30:07,080 --> 01:30:09,120 Speaker 1: and that you're not like a five to one favorite 1931 01:30:09,200 --> 01:30:10,639 Speaker 1: to beat him. I don't know if you have any 1932 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:11,360 Speaker 1: thoughts on that. 1933 01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 19: The thing with the DS is, you know, I'm in 1934 01:30:15,280 --> 01:30:19,280 Speaker 19: contact with the UFC behind the scenes about my next 1935 01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:22,240 Speaker 19: moves all the time, Like we talk when do I 1936 01:30:22,240 --> 01:30:24,200 Speaker 19: want to fight again, how about my injuries? Things like that, 1937 01:30:24,240 --> 01:30:26,360 Speaker 19: And when I brought his name up the last time 1938 01:30:26,400 --> 01:30:28,559 Speaker 19: I brought his name up, they didn't want to talk 1939 01:30:28,600 --> 01:30:30,880 Speaker 19: about him. They didn't want to do business. He's just 1940 01:30:31,200 --> 01:30:33,080 Speaker 19: a lot of fans don't know behind the scenes. He's 1941 01:30:33,080 --> 01:30:34,920 Speaker 19: such a struggle to deal with that. I think they 1942 01:30:34,960 --> 01:30:38,080 Speaker 19: just don't want to do it anymore. But if it 1943 01:30:38,120 --> 01:30:41,479 Speaker 19: came around, if that was something that came was a reality, 1944 01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:43,400 Speaker 19: I one hundred percent would take the fight right now, 1945 01:30:43,680 --> 01:30:46,599 Speaker 19: sign a contract today. And Nate knows that because I've 1946 01:30:46,600 --> 01:30:48,640 Speaker 19: done it a few times and he can say what 1947 01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:51,439 Speaker 19: he wants. Every time a fight has fell apart with 1948 01:30:51,439 --> 01:30:53,200 Speaker 19: me and him, it's been on his side. Is it 1949 01:30:53,320 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 19: been him over negotiating, It's been him doing crazy shit 1950 01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:58,080 Speaker 19: behind the scenes. 1951 01:30:58,160 --> 01:30:59,080 Speaker 8: And it's fall apart. 1952 01:30:59,120 --> 01:30:59,759 Speaker 20: It's fell apart. 1953 01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:02,120 Speaker 19: I've accepted every fight I've ever been offered with Nate 1954 01:31:02,600 --> 01:31:04,040 Speaker 19: and I would accept one right now. 1955 01:31:05,439 --> 01:31:08,360 Speaker 1: All right, Two more questions with Dustin Pourier. One having 1956 01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:10,799 Speaker 1: to do with what you just mentioned. Do you believe 1957 01:31:11,160 --> 01:31:13,919 Speaker 1: and journalistically you're not supposed to ask yes or no questions, 1958 01:31:13,920 --> 01:31:16,439 Speaker 1: but do you believe that your next opponent will come 1959 01:31:16,479 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 1: out of this batch of names? Okayate Diaz, Nate Diaz, 1960 01:31:21,240 --> 01:31:28,200 Speaker 1: Connor McGregor, Alexander Volkanowski, Justin Gaetchee, Max Holloway, Charles OLIVERA, 1961 01:31:28,600 --> 01:31:33,439 Speaker 1: Colby Covington one. I mean, I can't fucking come up 1962 01:31:33,439 --> 01:31:34,320 Speaker 1: with anybody. 1963 01:31:33,920 --> 01:31:36,880 Speaker 7: Else, no big ass names. Man, You're in a good 1964 01:31:36,880 --> 01:31:38,160 Speaker 7: position there, Dustin. 1965 01:31:39,000 --> 01:31:41,920 Speaker 20: Yeah, for sure, for sure. Uh yeah. 1966 01:31:42,240 --> 01:31:44,840 Speaker 19: If I do fight again, and when I do fight again, 1967 01:31:44,920 --> 01:31:46,559 Speaker 19: it'll be definitely one of those guys you just said. 1968 01:31:47,200 --> 01:31:49,719 Speaker 1: And you know, I think Covington's probably too much noise. 1969 01:31:49,760 --> 01:31:52,360 Speaker 1: You're looking for reliability, somebody to show up on the 1970 01:31:52,439 --> 01:31:55,880 Speaker 1: date with all due respect, and maybe the preamble with 1971 01:31:56,040 --> 01:31:58,440 Speaker 1: that would be less than desirable. 1972 01:31:58,520 --> 01:31:58,800 Speaker 6: All right. 1973 01:31:58,880 --> 01:32:02,240 Speaker 1: Last question having to do with fame. So how do 1974 01:32:02,360 --> 01:32:06,000 Speaker 1: you deal with fame? I would imagine your profile every 1975 01:32:06,120 --> 01:32:10,160 Speaker 1: six months even just gets bigger and bigger. Obviously when 1976 01:32:10,200 --> 01:32:12,120 Speaker 1: you're home and on the road, it's different. But how 1977 01:32:12,160 --> 01:32:13,000 Speaker 1: do you deal with fame? 1978 01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:21,000 Speaker 19: Oh that's kind of a crazy deep question, but kind 1979 01:32:21,000 --> 01:32:24,040 Speaker 19: of crazy, like, I don't know it. It's cool, but 1980 01:32:24,160 --> 01:32:26,639 Speaker 19: I don't really deal I don't know how to answer that. 1981 01:32:26,680 --> 01:32:28,599 Speaker 19: I don't really have to deal with it. I don't 1982 01:32:28,600 --> 01:32:29,400 Speaker 19: really have to do. 1983 01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:30,760 Speaker 1: You to deal with it. I mean, you're on a 1984 01:32:30,800 --> 01:32:34,360 Speaker 1: TV set and you have producers telling you that you 1985 01:32:34,439 --> 01:32:37,040 Speaker 1: need to get miked up, and you're acknowledging the fans 1986 01:32:37,080 --> 01:32:39,120 Speaker 1: and taking pictures with fans. So you're very much a 1987 01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,280 Speaker 1: man of the people. I've seen other athletes not be 1988 01:32:41,439 --> 01:32:44,479 Speaker 1: nice to people, you know. I guess I didn't phrase 1989 01:32:44,560 --> 01:32:46,519 Speaker 1: the question well when I say, how do you deal 1990 01:32:46,560 --> 01:32:51,280 Speaker 1: with it? But is it beyond your wildest expectation? Because 1991 01:32:51,320 --> 01:32:53,320 Speaker 1: I certainly never wanted to be famous, And when I 1992 01:32:53,360 --> 01:32:56,360 Speaker 1: was with Ken Flow in Vegas recently, I sort of 1993 01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:58,400 Speaker 1: said recently, like, dude, it's just getting to be a 1994 01:32:58,439 --> 01:33:01,240 Speaker 1: little much, you know. And I'm not an athlete, bro, 1995 01:33:01,439 --> 01:33:03,960 Speaker 1: I just have a microphone, dude. 1996 01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:05,800 Speaker 19: And unless I'm in a rush with my daughter or 1997 01:33:05,800 --> 01:33:09,480 Speaker 19: something like going through a grocery store through an airport 1998 01:33:09,720 --> 01:33:11,640 Speaker 19: where I'm in a time thing, I don't mind it all, 1999 01:33:11,760 --> 01:33:14,880 Speaker 19: so I'm happy to see people. It makes me happy 2000 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:16,559 Speaker 19: to see people happy to see me. 2001 01:33:16,840 --> 01:33:16,960 Speaker 6: You know. 2002 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:19,760 Speaker 20: It's like a It works in my favorite too, So 2003 01:33:19,800 --> 01:33:21,679 Speaker 20: they're pumped up to meet me. I'm pumped up that 2004 01:33:21,680 --> 01:33:23,519 Speaker 20: they're excited to meet me because I just I'm me. 2005 01:33:23,800 --> 01:33:25,080 Speaker 20: You know, it's not a big deal to me. 2006 01:33:25,160 --> 01:33:29,080 Speaker 1: But I don't know, No, it's a good answer. I guess. 2007 01:33:29,080 --> 01:33:31,040 Speaker 1: It's like the other day, it's like I'm high as 2008 01:33:31,080 --> 01:33:33,000 Speaker 1: a billy goat and I go to my front door 2009 01:33:33,120 --> 01:33:36,120 Speaker 1: and it's United air Conditioning, and it's like, you know, 2010 01:33:36,320 --> 01:33:38,000 Speaker 1: next thing, you know, I'm taking a picture in my 2011 01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:41,120 Speaker 1: podcast studio up in my master bedroom with the AC guy, 2012 01:33:41,160 --> 01:33:42,880 Speaker 1: and I'm stoned.

Appreciate you very much. Dustin Poorier the 2034 01:34:29,400 --> 01:34:32,080 Speaker 1: living legend with us here on the Anak and Florian podcast. 2035 01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:36,200 Speaker 1: So recently I was asked to come up with the 2036 01:34:36,280 --> 01:34:43,320 Speaker 1: top three moments in Dustin Pourier's career. What a difficult exercise, right, 2037 01:34:43,439 --> 01:34:46,799 Speaker 1: he'll go into the modern era wing of the UFC 2038 01:34:46,880 --> 01:34:49,280 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame on the merits of what he has accomplished, 2039 01:34:49,280 --> 01:34:52,519 Speaker 1: But in terms of a fight of his I think 2040 01:34:52,520 --> 01:34:54,679 Speaker 1: that Dan Hooker fight for me would be the one 2041 01:34:54,680 --> 01:34:57,120 Speaker 1: that I would put in the Hall of Fame. There 2042 01:34:57,120 --> 01:35:00,320 Speaker 1: are others, obviously, I mean, he's had so many legendary fights, 2043 01:35:00,320 --> 01:35:04,880 Speaker 1: Max Holloway and Gaichi Eddie Alvarez, there's tons, but gosh, 2044 01:35:04,920 --> 01:35:08,599 Speaker 1: that fight June of twenty twenty and that second round 2045 01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:12,960 Speaker 1: at the UFC Apex, Dustin Poorier against Dan Hooker one 2046 01:35:13,000 --> 01:35:15,639 Speaker 1: of the most memorable rounds that I have ever called. 2047 01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:21,200 Speaker 1: All right, real quickly, that list of potential Poorier opponents 2048 01:35:22,000 --> 01:35:25,960 Speaker 1: Nate Diaz, Conor McGregor, Alexander Volkanowski, Justin Gaichee, which would 2049 01:35:26,000 --> 01:35:29,720 Speaker 1: be three, Max Holloway be three, Colby Covington, Charles Olivera 2050 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:35,120 Speaker 1: Olivera would be two. Any thoughts on those particular matchups 2051 01:35:35,120 --> 01:35:37,200 Speaker 1: knowing that the UFC maybe is luke warm on Nate 2052 01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:41,800 Speaker 1: Diez and knowing that the Connor McGregor quadrilogy or tetrology 2053 01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:43,559 Speaker 1: for a fight probably not gonna happen anytime. 2054 01:35:43,600 --> 01:35:47,280 Speaker 7: So a tremendous list. My friend Justin Gaigie is the 2055 01:35:47,280 --> 01:35:50,439 Speaker 7: one that stands out. I think, you know, you finish 2056 01:35:50,520 --> 01:35:54,000 Speaker 7: the trilogy. You have the trilogy to build up, you know, 2057 01:35:54,400 --> 01:35:57,599 Speaker 7: for where both of those men are in their careers. 2058 01:35:57,680 --> 01:35:58,759 Speaker 9: I think it makes sense. 2059 01:36:00,120 --> 01:36:04,360 Speaker 1: So that's a juicy one man, Let's do it. Yeah, 2060 01:36:04,400 --> 01:36:07,960 Speaker 1: it's gonna be interesting to see what they do. And again, 2061 01:36:08,000 --> 01:36:10,519 Speaker 1: depending on who that matchup is, if it's Dustin Pourier 2062 01:36:10,680 --> 01:36:16,559 Speaker 1: against Charles Dubrox Olavera, you go beat Charles, right, You're 2063 01:36:16,600 --> 01:36:20,120 Speaker 1: probably not gonna submit your retirement paperwork and get out 2064 01:36:20,160 --> 01:36:22,960 Speaker 1: of the drug testing pool. Some man who is never 2065 01:36:23,479 --> 01:36:26,200 Speaker 1: in any drug testing pool. I wonder if he tests 2066 01:36:26,240 --> 01:36:29,400 Speaker 1: his employee at the Paradise Canteen of Las Vegas. Big 2067 01:36:29,520 --> 01:36:34,200 Speaker 1: Ron Pellegrino live from the Villa at the Virgin Hotels, 2068 01:36:34,240 --> 01:36:37,360 Speaker 1: My man, No. Five hundredth episode would be complete without 2069 01:36:37,400 --> 01:36:39,839 Speaker 1: your face. Do you drug test your bartenders in your service? 2070 01:36:42,200 --> 01:36:44,280 Speaker 21: Yeah, we have a different way when they hire him. 2071 01:36:44,560 --> 01:36:46,639 Speaker 21: When I hire him, I roll a joint and I hand. 2072 01:36:46,479 --> 01:36:48,840 Speaker 8: It to him. If they don't light it, they're out there. 2073 01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:51,840 Speaker 9: You go, if you could finish this. 2074 01:36:51,960 --> 01:36:56,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I know you. I know you enjoyed the 2075 01:36:56,680 --> 01:37:00,519 Speaker 1: watch party over the weekend, you know, I sort of. 2076 01:37:00,520 --> 01:37:03,040 Speaker 1: And by the way, Ray longa earlier today suggested you 2077 01:37:03,080 --> 01:37:05,759 Speaker 1: are a future, if not present star. So he's chips 2078 01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:08,680 Speaker 1: in the center of the table on a buying on 2079 01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:14,920 Speaker 1: Big Ron Pellegrino.

Are there any names that you're 2371 01:50:40,880 --> 01:50:41,760 Speaker 7: looking at? 2372 01:50:42,120 --> 01:50:48,240 Speaker 22: That's a great question, Kim Pall. Yeah, like you said, 2373 01:50:48,280 --> 01:50:51,880 Speaker 22: it's an interesting spot, very different. I've never been in 2374 01:50:51,920 --> 01:50:55,559 Speaker 22: a spot like this where it's it's just hey, just. 2375 01:50:55,520 --> 01:50:58,840 Speaker 13: Get back and pick wherever where you want to go 2376 01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:01,680 Speaker 13: and just get back. And for me, it's I made my. 2377 01:51:01,720 --> 01:51:05,880 Speaker 22: Career at being a well to way and I never 2378 01:51:05,960 --> 01:51:09,559 Speaker 22: thought I would middlewaight. Obviously when that possibility of potentially 2379 01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:10,600 Speaker 22: getting the second. 2380 01:51:10,280 --> 01:51:14,120 Speaker 13: Belt, yeah, I thought about it. But besides that, I 2381 01:51:14,280 --> 01:51:15,880 Speaker 13: walter Way just seems to be the. 2382 01:51:15,840 --> 01:51:20,160 Speaker 22: Way that where I have been, where I'm comfortable. 2383 01:51:20,479 --> 01:51:23,920 Speaker 13: Even though for the right fight, middleway makes sense. 2384 01:51:24,160 --> 01:51:26,599 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, what's that weight cut? Like to one 2385 01:51:26,680 --> 01:51:28,240 Speaker 9: seventy of these days. 2386 01:51:29,120 --> 01:51:30,840 Speaker 13: That's the thing I haven't. I haven't done it out 2387 01:51:31,160 --> 01:51:34,799 Speaker 13: in over a year. So it's it's gonna be interesting. 2388 01:51:35,160 --> 01:51:36,000 Speaker 13: It's gonna be interesting. 2389 01:51:36,040 --> 01:51:38,040 Speaker 22: But the body knows, you know, once you get into 2390 01:51:38,120 --> 01:51:40,640 Speaker 22: camp and then you really focus and you dial in, 2391 01:51:40,960 --> 01:51:43,639 Speaker 22: the body knows. That's what I found was always crazy 2392 01:51:43,640 --> 01:51:45,920 Speaker 22: to me. The body knows when did you start getting 2393 01:51:45,920 --> 01:51:49,599 Speaker 22: it off? But I, yeah, one seventy or eighty five. 2394 01:51:49,680 --> 01:51:51,559 Speaker 22: If it makes sense, then it's something that I could 2395 01:51:51,560 --> 01:51:54,680 Speaker 22: potentially entertain. But right now it's just my biggest thing 2396 01:51:54,760 --> 01:51:59,959 Speaker 22: is just getting healthy. I thought so long being unhealthy 2397 01:52:00,080 --> 01:52:02,040 Speaker 22: and just jumping in there because I wanted to fight. 2398 01:52:02,280 --> 01:52:04,200 Speaker 22: I wanted to the next guy. I wanted to compete. 2399 01:52:04,200 --> 01:52:07,760 Speaker 22: I wanted to compete, and of course you wanted to 2400 01:52:07,800 --> 01:52:11,240 Speaker 22: make money. You want all these different things to where 2401 01:52:11,240 --> 01:52:13,720 Speaker 22: it just it forces you. You you know this, It 2402 01:52:13,800 --> 01:52:16,320 Speaker 22: can flow as a fighter. It forces you to say, yeah, 2403 01:52:16,360 --> 01:52:19,240 Speaker 22: that hurts, I should probably get that fixed. But oh wait, 2404 01:52:19,360 --> 01:52:22,280 Speaker 22: I'll do that. And so now I'm just in a 2405 01:52:22,280 --> 01:52:24,479 Speaker 22: position to where it's like, let's get all these done. 2406 01:52:24,560 --> 01:52:27,120 Speaker 22: So I know I'm at the tail end. Let me 2407 01:52:27,160 --> 01:52:29,840 Speaker 22: finish the career the right way and decide what else 2408 01:52:29,920 --> 01:52:32,320 Speaker 22: I want to do. So I'm just getting healthy right now, 2409 01:52:32,320 --> 01:52:33,720 Speaker 22: I can flows. 2410 01:52:34,479 --> 01:52:37,920 Speaker 7: Probably I'm probably sniping this question from mister Annik here, 2411 01:52:37,960 --> 01:52:40,439 Speaker 7: but what's your breakdown and what's your pick of this 2412 01:52:40,560 --> 01:52:44,640 Speaker 7: upcoming welterweight championship fight between Balall and Leon. 2413 01:52:45,960 --> 01:52:46,000 Speaker 13: I. 2414 01:52:46,439 --> 01:52:50,760 Speaker 22: It's an interesting fight because I think both guys have 2415 01:52:53,720 --> 01:52:56,679 Speaker 22: both guys are talented in both ways. Leon I would 2416 01:52:56,720 --> 01:52:59,800 Speaker 22: say the best thing about Leon Leon was very Sharp's 2417 01:52:59,880 --> 01:53:02,880 Speaker 22: very sharp in his movement and his quick twitch is 2418 01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:06,840 Speaker 22: very sharp. But where we've kind of seen him, it's 2419 01:53:06,840 --> 01:53:08,840 Speaker 22: like it's almost like a hesitation to where he's like 2420 01:53:08,880 --> 01:53:11,400 Speaker 22: he doesn't pull the trigger when he needs to pull 2421 01:53:11,439 --> 01:53:14,519 Speaker 22: the trigger and actually turn on that kill switch and 2422 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:15,679 Speaker 22: go get you out of there. 2423 01:53:16,000 --> 01:53:18,240 Speaker 13: And I saw that even in his last fight with coven. 2424 01:53:18,000 --> 01:53:21,160 Speaker 22: Ten, he was much sharper, much sharper, and he had 2425 01:53:21,200 --> 01:53:23,320 Speaker 22: some opportunities there where he could have landed some nice 2426 01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:26,240 Speaker 22: strikes and potentially got Covening out of there. But it's 2427 01:53:26,240 --> 01:53:29,439 Speaker 22: almost like he hesitates. And I think that hesitation might 2428 01:53:29,479 --> 01:53:34,320 Speaker 22: be from not wanting to be fatigued over the five rounds. 2429 01:53:34,800 --> 01:53:37,600 Speaker 22: But and I's where I think is going to be 2430 01:53:37,760 --> 01:53:40,519 Speaker 22: play a factor in this fight because the Law had 2431 01:53:40,920 --> 01:53:44,439 Speaker 22: Blow can just go like that to where Leon can 2432 01:53:44,520 --> 01:53:46,760 Speaker 22: start out really really hot first round and then it 2433 01:53:46,840 --> 01:53:49,080 Speaker 22: kind of dips and then it goes like this. And 2434 01:53:49,120 --> 01:53:51,559 Speaker 22: you started to see it in their fight that obviously 2435 01:53:51,640 --> 01:53:52,719 Speaker 22: it ended in an iPod. 2436 01:53:53,080 --> 01:53:53,760 Speaker 13: We started to see it. 2437 01:53:53,840 --> 01:53:58,000 Speaker 22: Leon came out throwing nice combinations, really really good head kicks, 2438 01:53:58,439 --> 01:54:01,000 Speaker 22: and it kind of, you know, seems like it shocked 2439 01:54:01,000 --> 01:54:03,280 Speaker 22: ballall a little bit. But towards the end of that 2440 01:54:03,320 --> 01:54:05,800 Speaker 22: you see Blaw kind of start to settle in, start 2441 01:54:05,880 --> 01:54:08,400 Speaker 22: to kind of come back before the ipoke. And that's 2442 01:54:08,400 --> 01:54:10,320 Speaker 22: why I think is very interested in this fight because 2443 01:54:10,360 --> 01:54:13,160 Speaker 22: both guys have much improved. Leon of course, is going 2444 01:54:13,240 --> 01:54:16,519 Speaker 22: to be walking around with that extra thirty percent swag 2445 01:54:16,600 --> 01:54:21,120 Speaker 22: of I'm the champion now, and the Law has I 2446 01:54:21,120 --> 01:54:23,400 Speaker 22: don't know, it's just how Blaw deals with all the 2447 01:54:23,400 --> 01:54:25,360 Speaker 22: pressures of everything that's going on outside. 2448 01:54:25,800 --> 01:54:27,920 Speaker 13: Right. We can't forget where he's from. We can't forget. 2449 01:54:28,200 --> 01:54:31,520 Speaker 22: You know, everyone wants to represent their heritage, their culture, 2450 01:54:31,600 --> 01:54:34,240 Speaker 22: where they're from, and so carrying the weight of that 2451 01:54:34,440 --> 01:54:38,000 Speaker 22: and you're going into enemy territory literally Manchester. 2452 01:54:38,960 --> 01:54:40,160 Speaker 13: It's just how they deal with it. 2453 01:54:40,480 --> 01:54:44,840 Speaker 22: I think Leon, if I had to pick, I'm then 2454 01:54:45,040 --> 01:54:47,160 Speaker 22: don't don't don't hold me to it. I'm gonna lean 2455 01:54:47,280 --> 01:54:50,000 Speaker 22: towards I'm going to lean towards the champion Leon here 2456 01:54:50,080 --> 01:54:53,680 Speaker 22: because he really impressed me with how he handled all 2457 01:54:53,760 --> 01:54:57,520 Speaker 22: of the pressures and everything dealing with our last fight 2458 01:54:57,960 --> 01:55:00,680 Speaker 22: in London, England. So to be to deal with that 2459 01:55:00,720 --> 01:55:04,680 Speaker 22: pressure of everyone at hometown wanting you to excel and 2460 01:55:04,720 --> 01:55:07,120 Speaker 22: be great at it just let me know that, hey, 2461 01:55:07,120 --> 01:55:10,000 Speaker 22: it's something that he can deal with. So it's just 2462 01:55:10,040 --> 01:55:12,520 Speaker 22: based on what how the law shows up. But if 2463 01:55:12,560 --> 01:55:14,240 Speaker 22: I had to pick, I would lean towards Leon a 2464 01:55:14,280 --> 01:55:14,760 Speaker 22: little bit. 2465 01:55:15,320 --> 01:55:17,839 Speaker 1: You really set that up so well on both sides 2466 01:55:17,880 --> 01:55:21,120 Speaker 1: because the weight in terms of the bigger picture life 2467 01:55:21,120 --> 01:55:23,440 Speaker 1: stuff that Blah Muhammad is dealing with is a real 2468 01:55:23,480 --> 01:55:26,120 Speaker 1: potential factor in this fight. If channeled in the right way, 2469 01:55:26,240 --> 01:55:29,320 Speaker 1: it could be you know, huge, But it's a real 2470 01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:33,920 Speaker 1: lot kamar Usman joining us on this five hundredth episode 2471 01:55:33,920 --> 01:55:35,840 Speaker 1: of the Anakan Florian Podcast. I got a couple quick 2472 01:55:35,880 --> 01:55:38,200 Speaker 1: ones for you on the way out. So you just 2473 01:55:38,280 --> 01:55:40,440 Speaker 1: turned thirty seven in May. You've asked a lot of 2474 01:55:40,480 --> 01:55:43,560 Speaker 1: your body in wrestling in MMA. But he's smiling right 2475 01:55:43,560 --> 01:55:47,400 Speaker 1: now and for more reasons than one. So I would 2476 01:55:47,440 --> 01:55:49,720 Speaker 1: imagine part of you at times maybe gets a little 2477 01:55:49,720 --> 01:55:52,920 Speaker 1: bit melancholy to think that your body is going to determine, 2478 01:55:52,960 --> 01:55:54,640 Speaker 1: you know, when this thing ends, or there might be 2479 01:55:54,640 --> 01:55:57,000 Speaker 1: only one or two or three training camps left. But 2480 01:55:57,360 --> 01:56:00,600 Speaker 1: isn't it kind of nice to enjoy the fruit and 2481 01:56:01,080 --> 01:56:03,960 Speaker 1: look down at the frost on your fucking left wrist 2482 01:56:04,120 --> 01:56:06,920 Speaker 1: and realize that most of the hay is in the barn. 2483 01:56:10,560 --> 01:56:13,560 Speaker 22: John, You would think so, but it's still I still 2484 01:56:13,560 --> 01:56:17,919 Speaker 22: have a competitor's mind, which is it gets me sometimes 2485 01:56:17,920 --> 01:56:21,600 Speaker 22: because when I'm at home and I watch fights, I 2486 01:56:21,720 --> 01:56:25,960 Speaker 22: just instantly I'm maybe with the switch that competitor's mind there. 2487 01:56:25,280 --> 01:56:27,840 Speaker 22: So it's basically, I guess what you would say is 2488 01:56:27,840 --> 01:56:31,120 Speaker 22: that the fire is still in the furnace. It is 2489 01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:36,120 Speaker 22: still burning. And that's where I can't because the moment 2490 01:56:36,160 --> 01:56:38,640 Speaker 22: I want to say, you know, well, let's go on vacation. 2491 01:56:39,440 --> 01:56:41,640 Speaker 22: But even if I am on vacation, it's like after 2492 01:56:41,720 --> 01:56:43,120 Speaker 22: day one or two, it's like, damn, I got to 2493 01:56:43,160 --> 01:56:45,080 Speaker 22: get to the gym. I gotta get to the gym. 2494 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:46,880 Speaker 22: I gotta I gotta get better today. I gotta do 2495 01:56:46,920 --> 01:56:48,880 Speaker 22: something to get better, and this get better than that. 2496 01:56:49,400 --> 01:56:52,320 Speaker 22: So I would say it's for some reason I just 2497 01:56:52,400 --> 01:56:56,440 Speaker 22: can't yet. There's still a lot in here and you. 2498 01:56:56,560 --> 01:56:57,120 Speaker 13: But you're right. 2499 01:56:57,160 --> 01:56:59,680 Speaker 22: And the first part of that question is I go 2500 01:56:59,760 --> 01:57:02,040 Speaker 22: into the gym now and I start moving, I'm like, oh, yeah, 2501 01:57:02,040 --> 01:57:03,360 Speaker 22: it was nice. 2502 01:57:04,480 --> 01:57:06,360 Speaker 13: Everything's great here, everything's here. 2503 01:57:06,360 --> 01:57:08,320 Speaker 22: And then after a day or two of that, your 2504 01:57:08,320 --> 01:57:11,360 Speaker 22: body's like, own on, guy, hold on, Yeah, it's it's 2505 01:57:11,480 --> 01:57:15,160 Speaker 22: it's hold on here. The line is something starts hurting, 2506 01:57:15,200 --> 01:57:18,160 Speaker 22: so it's yeah, it's the bodies is obviously going to 2507 01:57:18,240 --> 01:57:18,840 Speaker 22: determine that. 2508 01:57:18,880 --> 01:57:22,360 Speaker 13: But well, I'm still competitive.

There he is Kamara Usman 2534 01:58:31,920 --> 01:58:34,160 Speaker 1: with us here on the Anakin Florian podcast. Right. So, 2535 01:58:34,520 --> 01:58:36,600 Speaker 1: all I'm doing is a fight fan, and what an 2536 01:58:36,640 --> 01:58:40,480 Speaker 1: absolute legend that man is. I have so many songs 2537 01:58:40,520 --> 01:58:43,680 Speaker 1: I've downloaded just from going into his Instagram story. But 2538 01:58:44,600 --> 01:58:48,360 Speaker 1: as an MMA fan, even though these are now my 2539 01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:51,640 Speaker 1: colleagues in some part and my friends Kenny, I'm thinking 2540 01:58:51,720 --> 01:58:53,640 Speaker 1: like who are they going to fight next? And who 2541 01:58:53,720 --> 01:58:55,640 Speaker 1: are they thinking they're going to fight next? Right, So 2542 01:58:55,920 --> 01:59:00,400 Speaker 1: we just presented kamar Usman with four names, and he 2543 01:59:01,080 --> 01:59:04,440 Speaker 1: didn't really hesitate to say yes, he thinks that he's 2544 01:59:04,480 --> 01:59:09,280 Speaker 1: fighting either Shapcott, rockmanov, Jack Dela, Mattalanta, Ian Michadogary or Blamha. 2545 01:59:10,240 --> 01:59:13,080 Speaker 7: Gosh, that's a sick list. You're killing it today. Man, 2546 01:59:13,120 --> 01:59:15,640 Speaker 7: that's quite the list. 2547 01:59:16,280 --> 01:59:16,480 Speaker 9: God. 2548 01:59:16,520 --> 01:59:18,320 Speaker 7: So are you asking me which one I would like 2549 01:59:18,400 --> 01:59:20,800 Speaker 7: to see? I mean, I'm not asking you any of them. 2550 01:59:20,840 --> 01:59:23,120 Speaker 7: I want to see all of them. John, but the 2551 01:59:23,200 --> 01:59:29,280 Speaker 7: shop cut rockmanoff fight. That would be a banger, a banger. 2552 01:59:29,320 --> 01:59:31,560 Speaker 7: But you know, I assume they've probably tramped each other 2553 01:59:31,560 --> 01:59:32,200 Speaker 7: before too. 2554 01:59:33,200 --> 01:59:35,640 Speaker 1: So one guy, I don't think it will be next 2555 01:59:35,680 --> 01:59:45,000 Speaker 1: for Kamorrow. Okay, Now, they did try to put that 2556 01:59:45,080 --> 01:59:48,200 Speaker 1: fight together in the past. Blau was waiting for his 2557 01:59:48,320 --> 01:59:52,280 Speaker 1: championship opportunity and so much is going to lie with 2558 01:59:52,280 --> 01:59:54,360 Speaker 1: this outcome at UFC three to zero four between Leon 2559 01:59:54,440 --> 01:59:56,400 Speaker 1: Edwards and Bala Muhammed as to what happens with all 2560 01:59:56,440 --> 01:59:58,520 Speaker 1: of the names that we just mentioned. We didn't mention 2561 01:59:58,560 --> 02:00:02,120 Speaker 1: Gilbert Burns, who is fighting Show Brady and the Burns rematch, 2562 02:00:02,240 --> 02:00:06,280 Speaker 1: just with respect to Durno, all time great human being, 2563 02:00:06,320 --> 02:00:09,000 Speaker 1: elite fighter. Just not a lot of upside for Kamara 2564 02:00:09,040 --> 02:00:11,520 Speaker 1: Usman to fight his friend and former trading partner Gilbert 2565 02:00:11,560 --> 02:00:13,320 Speaker 1: Burns again. So I think it's going to come out 2566 02:00:13,360 --> 02:00:15,720 Speaker 1: of that.

Stud first fight for US is going to 2908 02:14:46,000 --> 02:14:48,200 Speaker 1: be at Featherweight Boys, where Bill Algio is the minus 2909 02:14:48,200 --> 02:14:51,640 Speaker 1: one seventy betting favorite against Duho Choi. He comes back 2910 02:14:51,680 --> 02:14:55,640 Speaker 1: plus one forty two. Strange UFC career Brian for the 2911 02:14:55,720 --> 02:14:58,640 Speaker 1: Korean superboy Duhot Choi the fight against cups wantson UFC 2912 02:14:58,680 --> 02:15:02,280 Speaker 1: two oh six back in twenty sixteen UFC Hall of 2913 02:15:02,320 --> 02:15:06,360 Speaker 1: Fame Class of twenty twenty two. But he's fought just 2914 02:15:06,440 --> 02:15:10,160 Speaker 1: six times since his twenty four UFC debut. So sometimes 2915 02:15:10,200 --> 02:15:12,120 Speaker 1: as a handicapper, I'd imagine it's hard to know what 2916 02:15:12,160 --> 02:15:14,200 Speaker 1: you're in for. What do you make of the featherweight 2917 02:15:14,240 --> 02:15:15,360 Speaker 1: tire to kick off the main card. 2918 02:15:15,720 --> 02:15:17,080 Speaker 24: It's tough to cap him. You know, he had that 2919 02:15:17,120 --> 02:15:19,200 Speaker 24: military service and then he just took two years off. 2920 02:15:19,280 --> 02:15:21,560 Speaker 24: I think they get healthy. His last time out was 2921 02:15:21,600 --> 02:15:24,080 Speaker 24: a draw Againstkylin Nelson because he gave up six takedowns, 2922 02:15:24,080 --> 02:15:26,400 Speaker 24: but his hands look good. He out struck him fifty 2923 02:15:26,440 --> 02:15:28,160 Speaker 24: to twenty. I feel like he was a little gun 2924 02:15:28,200 --> 02:15:30,480 Speaker 24: shy because it's three fights before that he got finished. 2925 02:15:30,840 --> 02:15:34,160 Speaker 24: We need that Korean superboy coming out guns of blazes 2926 02:15:34,200 --> 02:15:38,440 Speaker 24: because Bill Aljio, excuse me, on the tail end of 2927 02:15:38,480 --> 02:15:40,240 Speaker 24: his career. I would say he's you know, he's a 2928 02:15:40,240 --> 02:15:42,200 Speaker 24: great guy, but he's thirty seven. First time he's ever 2929 02:15:42,240 --> 02:15:44,640 Speaker 24: been put out was his last time out. That scares 2930 02:15:44,680 --> 02:15:46,440 Speaker 24: me a little bit. A guy who's never not known 2931 02:15:46,480 --> 02:15:49,000 Speaker 24: for his defense. It's kind of funky in there. Doohu 2932 02:15:49,040 --> 02:15:51,800 Speaker 24: Toy can crack and deuety toy is fast as long 2933 02:15:51,840 --> 02:15:53,800 Speaker 24: as he stopped the takedowns. And I like saying his 2934 02:15:53,880 --> 02:15:57,080 Speaker 24: name duhood Toy. Nothing against Bill Aljio. I did last 2935 02:15:57,120 --> 02:15:58,720 Speaker 24: time break it down. I did say he was from 2936 02:15:58,760 --> 02:16:00,840 Speaker 24: Philly and a guy DM goes, No, he's from the 2937 02:16:00,920 --> 02:16:04,000 Speaker 24: King of Pressure. Sorry, I guess they don't have water 2938 02:16:04,120 --> 02:16:05,760 Speaker 24: ice in the King of Pressure Philly. 2939 02:16:05,960 --> 02:16:06,640 Speaker 6: My bad. 2940 02:16:07,080 --> 02:16:08,480 Speaker 12: But I like do who a. 2941 02:16:08,480 --> 02:16:11,280 Speaker 24: Joy is the underdog price here Bill aljiok. And he's 2942 02:16:11,320 --> 02:16:12,880 Speaker 24: easily steal this if he wants to mix in the 2943 02:16:12,920 --> 02:16:15,120 Speaker 24: takedowns and stuff, which he might because he's coming off 2944 02:16:15,160 --> 02:16:16,160 Speaker 24: his first not got lost. 2945 02:16:16,560 --> 02:16:17,680 Speaker 14: But you know, I don't know. 2946 02:16:17,720 --> 02:16:19,880 Speaker 24: There's something about to do who Toy And I just again, 2947 02:16:19,920 --> 02:16:22,560 Speaker 24: I just keep saying his name, so I'm gonna bet him. 2948 02:16:24,200 --> 02:16:26,600 Speaker 1: I got King of Prussia Pennsylvania in my notes as well. 2949 02:16:26,680 --> 02:16:30,040 Speaker 1: Can flow. That's where Bill Algio's out of thirty five 2950 02:16:30,120 --> 02:16:33,480 Speaker 1: years of age March thirtieth of this year. That was, 2951 02:16:33,520 --> 02:16:35,959 Speaker 1: of course, also against Kyle Nelson, stopped his win streak 2952 02:16:35,959 --> 02:16:38,360 Speaker 1: at two. He is the favorite here against Duho Choi. 2953 02:16:38,400 --> 02:16:39,199 Speaker 1: Can flow your thoughts. 2954 02:16:39,360 --> 02:16:42,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, got hurt pretty bad in that last fight. Had 2955 02:16:42,520 --> 02:16:44,800 Speaker 7: him winning that last fight for or picked him to win. 2956 02:16:44,920 --> 02:16:49,080 Speaker 7: That last fight didn't go his way. But you know 2957 02:16:49,160 --> 02:16:51,560 Speaker 7: he and he's a little in consistent. But I think 2958 02:16:51,600 --> 02:16:53,879 Speaker 7: that if he can mix in takedowns against you Hu 2959 02:16:54,000 --> 02:16:58,520 Speaker 7: Choi and just use long range strikes, I think he 2960 02:16:58,560 --> 02:17:00,720 Speaker 7: can pull it off. So I'm leading towards it's al Joe. 2961 02:17:00,959 --> 02:17:04,280 Speaker 7: Curious to see how Doohuchoi looks coming back after a 2962 02:17:04,280 --> 02:17:05,160 Speaker 7: little bit of a layoff. 2963 02:17:05,920 --> 02:17:09,560 Speaker 1: All right, Next up, sneaky big fight here at flyweight boys, 2964 02:17:09,640 --> 02:17:12,640 Speaker 1: right BP, you know what it is. Fourteenth ranked Cody 2965 02:17:12,720 --> 02:17:15,880 Speaker 1: Durden Modus won twenty two taken on Bruno Silva plus 2966 02:17:15,879 --> 02:17:19,160 Speaker 1: one oh two Bulldog Silva out of salth Pallo, Brazil. 2967 02:17:19,200 --> 02:17:21,160 Speaker 1: He's won three straight after going winless in his first 2968 02:17:21,200 --> 02:17:24,240 Speaker 1: three in the UFC. Hasn't fought though since the submission 2969 02:17:24,280 --> 02:17:26,879 Speaker 1: went over. Tyson Nam that was March of twenty twenty three, 2970 02:17:27,000 --> 02:17:31,439 Speaker 1: long time ago. Now returning against American top teams, custom 2971 02:17:31,600 --> 02:17:35,040 Speaker 1: made Cody Durden. He's probably going to reveal the custom 2972 02:17:35,080 --> 02:17:37,119 Speaker 1: made nickname this weekend. 2973 02:17:37,400 --> 02:17:37,959 Speaker 14: Love it now. 2974 02:17:37,959 --> 02:17:39,400 Speaker 1: He had won four in a row, not all that 2975 02:17:39,440 --> 02:17:42,080 Speaker 1: long ago. Bri coming off a loss here against tugiar 2976 02:17:42,200 --> 02:17:46,440 Speaker 1: ulan Bekov, who face cranked him last December. Durden or 2977 02:17:46,480 --> 02:17:48,480 Speaker 1: Silva pretty close on paper here, BP. 2978 02:17:48,720 --> 02:17:51,560 Speaker 24: Yeah, tough fight. Cody Durden is nails. I mean, the 2979 02:17:51,560 --> 02:17:53,480 Speaker 24: guy really is. I know a lot of people. He's 2980 02:17:53,480 --> 02:17:55,560 Speaker 24: not everyone's flavor. I guess I would just say, but 2981 02:17:55,640 --> 02:17:57,680 Speaker 24: I think he's a good guy, you know. And then 2982 02:17:57,720 --> 02:18:01,360 Speaker 24: Bruno Silva got put through the fucking in his debut, right. 2983 02:18:01,640 --> 02:18:03,920 Speaker 24: His first three fights were tough dudes, and he's rotted 2984 02:18:03,959 --> 02:18:06,560 Speaker 24: off some wins. He's feeling comfortable with his hands, He's 2985 02:18:06,600 --> 02:18:08,520 Speaker 24: good on the ground. This is gonna be interesting because 2986 02:18:08,560 --> 02:18:11,000 Speaker 24: Cody's a guy who he likes the box a little bit. 2987 02:18:11,000 --> 02:18:12,400 Speaker 3: But I get a little worried. 2988 02:18:12,080 --> 02:18:13,920 Speaker 24: Because it's not the best thing in the world. He 2989 02:18:13,959 --> 02:18:15,760 Speaker 24: gets hit a little too much of my liking. He 2990 02:18:15,800 --> 02:18:18,600 Speaker 24: wants to be on top, he wants to create scrambles. 2991 02:18:18,680 --> 02:18:21,560 Speaker 24: He has been submitted before. Silva has that game, but 2992 02:18:21,640 --> 02:18:22,879 Speaker 24: I just think American wrestling is. 2993 02:18:22,879 --> 02:18:23,560 Speaker 14: Gonna win on this one. 2994 02:18:23,560 --> 02:18:25,280 Speaker 24: I think Cody Dirtin is just gonna outgrind him for 2995 02:18:25,320 --> 02:18:27,119 Speaker 24: three rounds, possibly. 2996 02:18:26,680 --> 02:18:27,440 Speaker 14: To get a decision. 2997 02:18:27,720 --> 02:18:29,680 Speaker 24: I like the over a lot the overs only said 2998 02:18:29,680 --> 02:18:31,560 Speaker 24: out like minus three ten and draft games right now 2999 02:18:31,560 --> 02:18:33,360 Speaker 24: over two and a half. I kind of love that 3000 02:18:33,400 --> 02:18:37,879 Speaker 24: player there, and moneyline Cody Dirty nicely done BP ears 3001 02:18:37,879 --> 02:18:40,320 Speaker 24: sound fine to me. We need those years good, We're back, 3002 02:18:40,360 --> 02:18:43,039 Speaker 24: you know, we need those years good for the podcasts. 3003 02:18:43,680 --> 02:18:47,120 Speaker 1: So Kenny fight ready versus American Top Team here, Bruno 3004 02:18:47,160 --> 02:18:49,600 Speaker 1: trains in Arizona. Still, if I'm not mistaken, I'm curious. 3005 02:18:49,680 --> 02:18:52,160 Speaker 1: I'm sure somebody crunches these types of numbers as to 3006 02:18:52,720 --> 02:18:55,320 Speaker 1: team versus team records, but a lot of these big 3007 02:18:55,400 --> 02:18:59,240 Speaker 1: gems historically have a lot of experience against one another. 3008 02:19:00,320 --> 02:19:02,800 Speaker 1: It's always the athletes, though, who decided. We got Bruno, 3009 02:19:02,920 --> 02:19:06,400 Speaker 1: Silva custom made, Cody dirt and Kenlow. 3010 02:19:06,400 --> 02:19:06,840 Speaker 8: Who do you like? 3011 02:19:07,720 --> 02:19:09,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, you know, I kind of see it the same 3012 02:19:09,360 --> 02:19:12,039 Speaker 7: way as Brian. I do think wrestling is going to 3013 02:19:12,040 --> 02:19:15,000 Speaker 7: be the deciding factor in this fight, just because I 3014 02:19:15,040 --> 02:19:17,920 Speaker 7: think they're pretty even when it comes to the striking game, 3015 02:19:18,600 --> 02:19:22,280 Speaker 7: and you know judges aren't going to favor those takedowns. 3016 02:19:22,280 --> 02:19:25,039 Speaker 7: If it is close, I think that is usually the 3017 02:19:25,080 --> 02:19:28,320 Speaker 7: deciding factor, especially a guy who knows how to keep position. 3018 02:19:28,560 --> 02:19:30,360 Speaker 7: As long as he's able to stay out of things 3019 02:19:30,400 --> 02:19:33,000 Speaker 7: like GA teams and armlocks, I think he's going to 3020 02:19:33,040 --> 02:19:34,880 Speaker 7: be able to chip away with ground and pound and 3021 02:19:34,920 --> 02:19:38,520 Speaker 7: get it done on that end. And it's interesting though 3022 02:19:38,520 --> 02:19:40,440 Speaker 7: that both these guys have lost the same guy who 3023 02:19:40,440 --> 02:19:44,400 Speaker 7: will beckoff, So I think Cody's probably poised to take 3024 02:19:44,400 --> 02:19:47,960 Speaker 7: the win here. Should be close, but give me Cody 3025 02:19:48,040 --> 02:19:49,680 Speaker 7: Durty all right. 3026 02:19:49,760 --> 02:19:51,760 Speaker 1: Next fight for us on the main card coming up 3027 02:19:51,840 --> 02:19:54,200 Speaker 1: UFC Fight Night this weekend is at lightweight, and I'm 3028 02:19:54,240 --> 02:19:56,520 Speaker 1: going to employ the pronunciation file here. 3029 02:19:56,560 --> 02:19:56,680 Speaker 13: Now. 3030 02:19:56,680 --> 02:19:58,840 Speaker 1: We've got a lot of fan feedback on the Pronunciation 3031 02:19:58,920 --> 02:20:01,480 Speaker 1: of the Week segment. Some people want us to kill it, 3032 02:20:01,560 --> 02:20:04,200 Speaker 1: some people want it to continue. It will continue in 3033 02:20:04,280 --> 02:20:07,640 Speaker 1: some form, in part because I fucking need it right. 3034 02:20:07,720 --> 02:20:11,200 Speaker 1: And this next name I can't really pronounce now, Kurt 3035 02:20:11,240 --> 02:20:15,600 Speaker 1: Hollibo is the plus one fourteen underdog fighting this other 3036 02:20:15,680 --> 02:20:18,520 Speaker 1: gentleman who's the minus one thirty five betting favorite. Briye. 3037 02:20:18,760 --> 02:20:21,080 Speaker 1: Do you care to give this a gander before we 3038 02:20:21,080 --> 02:20:21,680 Speaker 1: play the file? 3039 02:20:22,000 --> 02:20:22,440 Speaker 14: Of course? 3040 02:20:22,520 --> 02:20:24,320 Speaker 24: All right, Brian, what do you have for us?

You know, I was gonna go with 3072 02:21:53,080 --> 02:21:55,000 Speaker 24: the this this fighter went back and forth with Kurt 3073 02:21:55,040 --> 02:21:56,520 Speaker 24: haliball excuse me. 3074 02:21:56,560 --> 02:21:58,400 Speaker 1: Bo is A is a grinder. 3075 02:21:58,440 --> 02:21:59,760 Speaker 12: He's an old old dog. 3076 02:22:00,000 --> 02:22:00,959 Speaker 14: He's been in there with everyone. 3077 02:22:01,120 --> 02:22:03,279 Speaker 24: He's had his run in the UFC, won the Ultimate Fighter, 3078 02:22:03,320 --> 02:22:05,360 Speaker 24: and he is good off his back, he's good on 3079 02:22:05,400 --> 02:22:08,080 Speaker 24: his feet, and he's tough to finish. But Khrushchi, I 3080 02:22:08,080 --> 02:22:10,360 Speaker 24: think this guy has it everywhere. I think this guy's 3081 02:22:10,440 --> 02:22:13,800 Speaker 24: really good. Yes, he lost his UFC deby versus Alvis Brenner. 3082 02:22:14,040 --> 02:22:16,720 Speaker 24: That dude's a fucking animal. That dude's a stud. That's 3083 02:22:16,720 --> 02:22:19,240 Speaker 24: okay that we lost that. Look at his fights before 3084 02:22:19,320 --> 02:22:21,800 Speaker 24: that fight, before the UFC fight. This dude's a dog 3085 02:22:21,879 --> 02:22:24,360 Speaker 24: and he's fighting good people, and he's winning a lot 3086 02:22:24,400 --> 02:22:26,520 Speaker 24: of different ways. He has been knocked out twice, so 3087 02:22:26,560 --> 02:22:28,680 Speaker 24: obviously I'm a little worried about the feed. He is 3088 02:22:28,720 --> 02:22:30,280 Speaker 24: thirty three years old, so he's not like this young 3089 02:22:30,360 --> 02:22:34,120 Speaker 24: dude coming in. But he's experienced and he's well rounded. 3090 02:22:34,480 --> 02:22:36,680 Speaker 24: And with the low number, I mean, yeah, you could 3091 02:22:36,680 --> 02:22:38,440 Speaker 24: take the plus money on the veteran. That's what a 3092 02:22:38,440 --> 02:22:40,000 Speaker 24: lot of people are going to see gonna do. I 3093 02:22:40,080 --> 02:22:41,920 Speaker 24: think this number is gonna move a little bit. Give 3094 02:22:41,959 --> 02:22:44,960 Speaker 24: me the new guy, give me Krushovski, give me the Brazilion, 3095 02:22:45,000 --> 02:22:46,320 Speaker 24: even though he doesn't sound Brazilian. 3096 02:22:46,360 --> 02:22:47,160 Speaker 14: I'm ryding with him. 3097 02:22:47,680 --> 02:22:52,600 Speaker 1: Kem Flow, Khrushchevsky, the favorite, Hullibo, the underdog Hallibo, losing 3098 02:22:52,600 --> 02:22:56,480 Speaker 1: that Ultimate Fighter momentum, the loss to Trey Ogden. He's 3099 02:22:56,520 --> 02:22:59,400 Speaker 1: one in five of the UFC, so Kurt in a 3100 02:22:59,440 --> 02:23:02,440 Speaker 1: big spot here. Obviously he has the Ultimate Fighter contract, 3101 02:23:02,520 --> 02:23:04,560 Speaker 1: But how do you think he fares here as a 3102 02:23:04,600 --> 02:23:08,640 Speaker 1: slight dog against the dude whose name I can't pronounce. 3103 02:23:09,080 --> 02:23:11,720 Speaker 25: Hey, he's a good fight to man. He's from presumment 3104 02:23:13,120 --> 02:23:20,080 Speaker 25: strike is very black bouch black uh, doesn't have too 3105 02:23:20,160 --> 02:23:21,080 Speaker 25: much experience. 3106 02:23:21,120 --> 02:23:26,680 Speaker 9: But man's this is the guy who I agree with. 3107 02:23:26,800 --> 02:23:29,039 Speaker 9: I think he's I think he has the advantage here. 3108 02:23:29,080 --> 02:23:31,080 Speaker 1: I think I'm not gonna listen to what you have 3109 02:23:31,160 --> 02:23:34,240 Speaker 1: to say about this fight anymore. So if you want 3110 02:23:34,280 --> 02:23:38,240 Speaker 1: to get back to doing that that English Brazilian thing, 3111 02:23:38,440 --> 02:23:41,160 Speaker 1: we can do that. Otherwise we can move on to 3112 02:23:41,200 --> 02:23:43,280 Speaker 1: the next fight. At this point, I truly don't care 3113 02:23:43,320 --> 02:23:43,960 Speaker 1: about your pay. 3114 02:23:44,240 --> 02:23:48,119 Speaker 9: Gorch, Gorch.

Comine event in the middle 3209 02:28:09,280 --> 02:28:13,520 Speaker 1: Wake Division, the Iron Turtle Jung Yong Park minus one 3210 02:28:13,560 --> 02:28:16,960 Speaker 1: eighty five, Brad Tavors plus one fifty four. So Brian, 3211 02:28:17,040 --> 02:28:17,920 Speaker 1: we'll start with you here. 3212 02:28:18,080 --> 02:28:18,400 Speaker 6: Yeah. 3213 02:28:18,560 --> 02:28:21,560 Speaker 1: Park flought three times last year, two submission wins and 3214 02:28:21,600 --> 02:28:25,879 Speaker 1: a split decision lost to Andre Muonniz. Strong UFC schedule overall. 3215 02:28:26,000 --> 02:28:29,440 Speaker 1: UFC debut came against Anthony Fluffy Hernandez back in the day, 3216 02:28:29,840 --> 02:28:32,600 Speaker 1: and now in TAVARSI draws one of the biggest names 3217 02:28:32,840 --> 02:28:36,120 Speaker 1: of his career. To be sure, any strong lean for 3218 02:28:36,240 --> 02:28:38,640 Speaker 1: us bri on the comain event, Yeah, I mean, I guess. 3219 02:28:38,440 --> 02:28:41,520 Speaker 24: I wouldn't a super strong lean, but I like the 3220 02:28:41,560 --> 02:28:43,879 Speaker 24: Iron Turtle. Four Korean fighters on this card as well. 3221 02:28:43,920 --> 02:28:46,760 Speaker 24: It'd be pretty cool if this was in South Korea 3222 02:28:46,840 --> 02:28:49,960 Speaker 24: instead the Apex. But I digress. Listen to jung On 3223 02:28:50,120 --> 02:28:53,320 Speaker 24: Park is a guy that likes to move forward. He 3224 02:28:53,360 --> 02:28:54,879 Speaker 24: wants to get on top of you. He wants to 3225 02:28:54,920 --> 02:28:57,680 Speaker 24: clinch you. Tavars has really good take time offense, but 3226 02:28:57,720 --> 02:29:00,880 Speaker 24: in the clinch, Tavares sometimes lets you clinch him, let 3227 02:29:00,959 --> 02:29:03,560 Speaker 24: you put some he lets you dictate the fight. Tavares 3228 02:29:03,640 --> 02:29:04,879 Speaker 24: is very good in distance with his. 3229 02:29:04,920 --> 02:29:07,320 Speaker 14: Kicks, but when you when you dictate the. 3230 02:29:07,280 --> 02:29:09,560 Speaker 24: Fight on Tavares, he just kind of lets you go 3231 02:29:09,959 --> 02:29:12,440 Speaker 24: and he'll let the three rounds go by. There's no 3232 02:29:12,480 --> 02:29:14,240 Speaker 24: really no sense of urgency. At least in the last 3233 02:29:14,240 --> 02:29:16,520 Speaker 24: couple of four months. I thought he could have maybe 3234 02:29:16,560 --> 02:29:19,959 Speaker 24: stop Chris Wiman. Maybe that was a show of respect 3235 02:29:19,959 --> 02:29:22,440 Speaker 24: that he didn't. But I need more from Tavares, especially 3236 02:29:22,480 --> 02:29:24,320 Speaker 24: being a vet, and I haven't seen it, but I've 3237 02:29:24,320 --> 02:29:26,800 Speaker 24: seen enough from jung On Park the Iron Turtle to 3238 02:29:26,920 --> 02:29:27,520 Speaker 24: get this done. 3239 02:29:27,520 --> 02:29:30,520 Speaker 14: He's gonna march. He's gonna slow and steady, you know. 3240 02:29:30,680 --> 02:29:33,680 Speaker 24: Slow and steady the Iron Turtle win a three round decision, 3241 02:29:34,000 --> 02:29:36,080 Speaker 24: and I'm gonna cast some money on that because God 3242 02:29:36,160 --> 02:29:38,119 Speaker 24: knows I needed Kenny's flouring. 3243 02:29:38,200 --> 02:29:39,920 Speaker 14: We'll get to that later. It's kicking the chabby, but 3244 02:29:39,920 --> 02:29:41,080 Speaker 14: I need the money. 3245 02:29:41,680 --> 02:29:44,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, you are facing your largest deficit of twenty twenty four, 3246 02:29:45,080 --> 02:29:47,680 Speaker 1: so we'll see what this weekend holds for you. As 3247 02:29:47,720 --> 02:29:50,160 Speaker 1: to the comain event, Ken flot Chungyong Park minus one 3248 02:29:50,280 --> 02:29:54,240 Speaker 1: eighty five Brad Tavares plus one fifty four Park thirty three, 3249 02:29:54,760 --> 02:29:57,400 Speaker 1: one of several South Korean fighters to be showcased on 3250 02:29:57,480 --> 02:30:01,040 Speaker 1: this card. Taken on the Hawaiian Tavares, who is fifteen 3251 02:30:01,040 --> 02:30:04,039 Speaker 1: to nine in the USC. Outstanding body of work can 3252 02:30:04,120 --> 02:30:05,800 Speaker 1: flow for Brad Tavaris. You're only as good as your 3253 02:30:05,879 --> 02:30:07,840 Speaker 1: last fight, though that was a stoppage loss for him 3254 02:30:07,840 --> 02:30:11,800 Speaker 1: in February against Gregory rodriguez'll be thirty seven in December. 3255 02:30:11,840 --> 02:30:15,080 Speaker 1: Your thoughts on him here in another big spot against 3256 02:30:15,080 --> 02:30:16,279 Speaker 1: the Iron Turtle. 3257 02:30:16,400 --> 02:30:18,640 Speaker 7: Well, BP, now you know how I felt last year. 3258 02:30:18,840 --> 02:30:21,959 Speaker 7: You smoked me last year, so I guess it's my turn. Okay, 3259 02:30:22,080 --> 02:30:25,039 Speaker 7: So this is an interesting fight. You know, I think 3260 02:30:25,040 --> 02:30:28,040 Speaker 7: that Widman has certainly faced the tougher competition. You look 3261 02:30:28,080 --> 02:30:30,680 Speaker 7: at you know, his last four fights. I mean, all 3262 02:30:30,840 --> 02:30:36,960 Speaker 7: big names, tough fighters Wideman, Rodriguez, Bruno, Silva, Dricis, Duplass. 3263 02:30:37,720 --> 02:30:40,120 Speaker 7: You know, there's not a lot of guys that are 3264 02:30:40,160 --> 02:30:43,280 Speaker 7: gonna get wins against against those guys. But I think 3265 02:30:43,360 --> 02:30:45,840 Speaker 7: tavar Is it's going to be critical for him to 3266 02:30:46,120 --> 02:30:49,040 Speaker 7: really establish himself out there. And like Brian said, I 3267 02:30:49,080 --> 02:30:52,120 Speaker 7: think sometimes he gets really comfortable in the clinch. He 3268 02:30:52,200 --> 02:30:55,880 Speaker 7: does have great takedown defense, but can't be complacent here. 3269 02:30:56,160 --> 02:30:58,880 Speaker 7: I'm leaning towards Park. I just think he'll be able 3270 02:30:58,920 --> 02:31:03,800 Speaker 7: to put together a overall bitter MMA package and I 3271 02:31:03,840 --> 02:31:05,520 Speaker 7: see him probably winning by decision. 3272 02:31:05,720 --> 02:31:07,480 Speaker 1: All right, nicely done, And by the way, anytime you 3273 02:31:07,480 --> 02:31:10,920 Speaker 1: want to pay off that bet in any manner from 3274 02:31:11,040 --> 02:31:13,840 Speaker 1: last year to me and Petrie, can't throw you and 3275 02:31:13,879 --> 02:31:16,120 Speaker 1: Cody like you guys were gonna forget about Yeah, so 3276 02:31:16,200 --> 02:31:18,560 Speaker 1: you can either crack a beer bottle over your head. 3277 02:31:18,560 --> 02:31:20,920 Speaker 1: We've said you can soften the glass by putting rocks 3278 02:31:20,920 --> 02:31:23,280 Speaker 1: in it. You can do a fucking showy. I don't 3279 02:31:23,280 --> 02:31:25,119 Speaker 1: care if you come out here want to take shots 3280 02:31:25,160 --> 02:31:25,640 Speaker 1: of Quervo. 3281 02:31:26,200 --> 02:31:28,760 Speaker 9: I'm just gonna splash mine over Cody's head. So we're good. 3282 02:31:28,879 --> 02:31:32,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's fine. That is fine. As long as Cody obliges. 3283 02:31:32,520 --> 02:31:34,640 Speaker 1: He's got that new Hampshire tough I'm sure he'll be fine. 3284 02:31:34,840 --> 02:31:37,080 Speaker 1: Just fucking scullet Cody. You guys probably did that back 3285 02:31:37,080 --> 02:31:39,920 Speaker 1: in the day. All right, main event between a couple 3286 02:31:39,959 --> 02:31:43,160 Speaker 1: of top five rank strawweights. I really don't think we 3287 02:31:43,160 --> 02:31:45,640 Speaker 1: should play the Vienna Jangy Doba file anymore. She's the 3288 02:31:45,680 --> 02:31:48,760 Speaker 1: minus one forty two favorite against Amanda Lemos, who was 3289 02:31:48,760 --> 02:31:51,920 Speaker 1: plus one twenty so. Lemo fought for the world title 3290 02:31:51,959 --> 02:31:54,160 Speaker 1: last August, showed a lot of grit in lasting five 3291 02:31:54,240 --> 02:31:56,880 Speaker 1: rounds against Jean Way. Lee then responded in kind of course, 3292 02:31:56,920 --> 02:31:59,560 Speaker 1: ken flow fighter and I went over Mackenzie Dern. That 3293 02:31:59,680 --> 02:32:02,920 Speaker 1: was in February and USC two ninety eight. Now she 3294 02:32:03,040 --> 02:32:05,800 Speaker 1: is the slight underdog in this headlining spot against Vienna 3295 02:32:06,160 --> 02:32:08,960 Speaker 1: Kakaa Jenjidba can flow kick us off in the main 3296 02:32:08,959 --> 02:32:11,520 Speaker 1: event UFC Fight Night, Who do you Have? Okay, this 3297 02:32:11,560 --> 02:32:14,240 Speaker 1: is by far the trickiest fight on the card in 3298 02:32:14,280 --> 02:32:17,039 Speaker 1: my opinion, because Lemos can win this fight. 3299 02:32:17,240 --> 02:32:21,039 Speaker 9: I mean, if she's on her game. Her striking is 3300 02:32:21,120 --> 02:32:24,560 Speaker 9: a problem. She also is a Brazilian jujitsu black belt, 3301 02:32:24,840 --> 02:32:27,560 Speaker 9: probably not at the level of someone like Jedgiedoba, but 3302 02:32:28,800 --> 02:32:31,800 Speaker 9: you know she's not, you know, clueless down there. She 3303 02:32:31,879 --> 02:32:33,959 Speaker 9: knows how to move, she knows how to defend. She 3304 02:32:34,160 --> 02:32:37,560 Speaker 9: stayed alive against some really tough spots against Mackenzie Dern. 3305 02:32:38,680 --> 02:32:40,640 Speaker 9: I think she'll be in some of those very same 3306 02:32:40,720 --> 02:32:44,440 Speaker 9: spots however here against Jedgiedoba, because I think Judgidoba has 3307 02:32:44,560 --> 02:32:50,039 Speaker 9: a significantly better takedown game than Mackenzie Dern, and she 3308 02:32:50,040 --> 02:32:53,119 Speaker 9: she has a knack forgetting these takedowns up against the cage. 3309 02:32:53,200 --> 02:32:57,120 Speaker 9: Her striking is good enough to get to those clinches safely, 3310 02:32:58,040 --> 02:33:00,520 Speaker 9: not good enough to stay the whole time. I'm against 3311 02:33:00,520 --> 02:33:02,879 Speaker 9: someone like Lamo's for twenty five minutes, certainly, maybe not 3312 02:33:02,959 --> 02:33:06,680 Speaker 9: even fifteen minutes. However, I think her ground game, her 3313 02:33:06,720 --> 02:33:10,240 Speaker 9: positional game, her submission game, will get the job done. 3314 02:33:10,280 --> 02:33:13,080 Speaker 9: At some point, it. 3315 02:33:13,120 --> 02:33:16,160 Speaker 7: May go to decision and I think she'll have enough 3316 02:33:17,240 --> 02:33:19,920 Speaker 7: with her grappling to get it done there. But you 3317 02:33:20,080 --> 02:33:23,320 Speaker 7: cannot count out the striking of Lamos. I think it's 3318 02:33:23,640 --> 02:33:27,400 Speaker 7: a pretty interesting fight here, but I'm leaning towards John G. 3319 02:33:27,879 --> 02:33:28,320 Speaker 8: Doba. 3320 02:33:28,720 --> 02:33:30,400 Speaker 1: No, it really is. It's a great fight, It's a 3321 02:33:30,400 --> 02:33:32,520 Speaker 1: great division. I was having a little bit fun earlier 3322 02:33:32,560 --> 02:33:35,280 Speaker 1: thinking about myself sitting down to watch this fight at 3323 02:33:35,280 --> 02:33:39,360 Speaker 1: as at sixty five years of age. But Jenji Doba 3324 02:33:39,680 --> 02:33:44,080 Speaker 1: has really rounded into form Bry She's won three in 3325 02:33:44,120 --> 02:33:46,640 Speaker 1: a row, vaults into the top five, and I just 3326 02:33:46,680 --> 02:33:48,560 Speaker 1: have a lot of respect for the way she has 3327 02:33:48,800 --> 02:33:52,800 Speaker 1: gone about her career. Last three wins over Angela Hill, Marinarodriguez, 3328 02:33:52,920 --> 02:33:56,440 Speaker 1: most recently in impressive fashion in the role of underdog 3329 02:33:56,440 --> 02:33:59,680 Speaker 1: against Lupy Godinez. Maybe a title fight in twenty twenty 3330 02:33:59,720 --> 02:34:03,120 Speaker 1: five she wins. Here your thoughts on Lemos and Jangidova 3331 02:34:03,200 --> 02:34:04,199 Speaker 1: in the main event, PP. 3332 02:34:04,360 --> 02:34:06,080 Speaker 24: Well, it's the battle of the haircuts. I mean their 3333 02:34:06,120 --> 02:34:08,480 Speaker 24: haircuts are on matching this division. I mean both these 3334 02:34:08,480 --> 02:34:11,600 Speaker 24: women can never change their hair because the is iconic. 3335 02:34:12,480 --> 02:34:15,200 Speaker 24: This is really tough fight, it really is. Lemos got 3336 02:34:15,200 --> 02:34:19,000 Speaker 24: taken down six times by the champ right zeg Wahli 3337 02:34:19,120 --> 02:34:21,960 Speaker 24: got taken down six times and then once by Mackenzie Dern, 3338 02:34:22,320 --> 02:34:25,080 Speaker 24: but she defended well. But mcdurren's obviously takedowns aren't to 3339 02:34:25,120 --> 02:34:28,640 Speaker 24: the level of say a Whiali or say a Jinger Dobo, 3340 02:34:28,800 --> 02:34:30,720 Speaker 24: who when she came into the UFC, that's all she 3341 02:34:30,760 --> 02:34:33,120 Speaker 24: did was look for singles, look for doubles, and she 3342 02:34:33,320 --> 02:34:35,520 Speaker 24: has gotten a lot better. She is willing to strike. 3343 02:34:36,440 --> 02:34:38,400 Speaker 24: I'm really curious to see if there's gonna be pressure 3344 02:34:38,400 --> 02:34:40,720 Speaker 24: on Jenidovo to make this interesting, to make this exciting. 3345 02:34:40,760 --> 02:34:43,080 Speaker 24: It's a five round main event. Her name's on the 3346 02:34:43,120 --> 02:34:45,240 Speaker 24: her face and name was on the poster. Is there 3347 02:34:45,240 --> 02:34:48,360 Speaker 24: any pressure internally saying I can't really hang on the legs. 3348 02:34:48,560 --> 02:34:50,720 Speaker 24: Let me mix things up here, let me try to 3349 02:34:50,720 --> 02:34:52,760 Speaker 24: go for a finish. Let me do something to stand 3350 02:34:52,879 --> 02:34:54,800 Speaker 24: up to try to get Limos, because if she does that, 3351 02:34:55,120 --> 02:34:56,560 Speaker 24: I think that's gonna be a problem. I think if 3352 02:34:56,600 --> 02:34:58,959 Speaker 24: she goes outside of her game, I think Lemos gets her. 3353 02:34:59,000 --> 02:35:01,560 Speaker 24: I'm taking the underdog and lefe most. I think she's 3354 02:35:01,600 --> 02:35:03,800 Speaker 24: just a little more well rounded, a little more skilled. 3355 02:35:03,840 --> 02:35:06,080 Speaker 24: But this is gonna come down to a decision. I'm 3356 02:35:06,080 --> 02:35:07,800 Speaker 24: not willing to put a ton of money on if 3357 02:35:07,840 --> 02:35:11,040 Speaker 24: any money. Definitely bet the over, maybe a submission prop 3358 02:35:11,200 --> 02:35:13,040 Speaker 24: if jan Gidoba does get it to the ground, she's 3359 02:35:13,080 --> 02:35:15,120 Speaker 24: kind of slick when she takes the back. But other 3360 02:35:15,120 --> 02:35:17,400 Speaker 24: than that, I think I'm gonna avoid.
