<v Speaker 5>Life is good? Man? Just enjoying life between fights. So

0:07:14.520 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 5>like between fights when I'm not when I'm not in

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:19.760
<v Speaker 5>training camp, you know, I can kind of cut back

0:07:19.800 --> 0:07:21.400
<v Speaker 5>a little bit, cut of loose a little bit, hang

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:22.080
<v Speaker 5>out with the family.

0:07:22.680 --> 0:07:23.680
<v Speaker 3>What's the workout schedule?

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:25.200
<v Speaker 4>Like though, when you're off fights, like you go to

0:07:25.240 --> 0:07:28.000
<v Speaker 4>a fight, how much time do you take off? And

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:31.760
<v Speaker 4>so I'm not as well versed in UFC or any

0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:34.120
<v Speaker 4>of that stuff. I do like it. I love watching it.

0:07:34.360 --> 0:07:36.480
<v Speaker 4>So you go hit a fight. When's the next time

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:37.360
<v Speaker 4>they'll usually have a fight?

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh, hang on, hang on, yeh, he actually just lost

0:07:40.480 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 1>his belt.

0:07:41.120 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, oh jesus, So this is a depression podcast, a depression.

0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 1>It's actually going to be a bad it's gone.

0:07:48.760 --> 0:07:52.800
<v Speaker 5>You guys got sound effects and stuff. I mean, more

0:07:52.800 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 5>than more than anything right now in my life is

0:07:54.840 --> 0:07:59.040
<v Speaker 5>realizing what is most important, realizing you know that this

0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:00.840
<v Speaker 5>fight game is about the journey and not the wins

0:08:00.840 --> 0:08:04.080
<v Speaker 5>and losses. But you know, this last fight wasn't I

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 5>didn't take a ton of damage. It was like very quick.

0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:08.600
<v Speaker 2>It's pretty crazy off. Do you feel like it was

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:12.360
<v Speaker 2>too short? They stopped it too short?

0:08:13.200 --> 0:08:15.080
<v Speaker 5>No, you're fine, Yeah, I know. It's so hard being

0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 5>in my position because I of course I I'm the

0:08:18.240 --> 0:08:20.440
<v Speaker 5>guy who lost. I'm the guy who you know. So

0:08:20.760 --> 0:08:22.360
<v Speaker 5>the good thing is there's a lot of people out

0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:23.760
<v Speaker 5>there who thought it was an early stoppage, a lot

0:08:23.760 --> 0:08:25.600
<v Speaker 5>of people out there who thought I got wronged. So

0:08:25.640 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 5>you let them do the talking. You let them do

0:08:27.600 --> 0:08:30.160
<v Speaker 5>it because because if it's you, then you just and truthfully,

0:08:30.200 --> 0:08:32.960
<v Speaker 5>I think it It was an awesome the way that

0:08:33.000 --> 0:08:35.760
<v Speaker 5>it happened. And then when I got onto the you know,

0:08:35.800 --> 0:08:37.920
<v Speaker 5>when I got onto the mic afterwards, people were like, man,

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:40.400
<v Speaker 5>that was one of the coolest losses I've ever seen,

0:08:40.480 --> 0:08:42.360
<v Speaker 5>or like one of the best speeches after a loss

0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:45.320
<v Speaker 5>I've ever seen, So like a like a great lose,

0:08:47.559 --> 0:08:48.079
<v Speaker 5>great loser.

0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:51.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no, dude, what I can't.

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:53.520
<v Speaker 1>So this guy what's his name? Pat?

0:08:54.720 --> 0:09:01.319
<v Speaker 5>And he came up right yeah, personal, it's pretty personal.

0:09:01.320 --> 0:09:02.920
<v Speaker 5>I throw a long jab here, he just catches me

0:09:02.960 --> 0:09:03.800
<v Speaker 5>behind the ear.

0:09:06.240 --> 0:09:06.640
<v Speaker 1>Right there.

0:09:07.760 --> 0:09:12.840
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's some bullsh So it was crazy too because

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.640
<v Speaker 5>those were illegal shots as well. So I think the

0:09:15.679 --> 0:09:19.240
<v Speaker 5>ref jumped in just as much because they were illegal shots.

0:09:19.240 --> 0:09:20.839
<v Speaker 3>But then, oh, you're mad as fuck here too.

0:09:21.120 --> 0:09:25.720
<v Speaker 4>Oh man, Yeah, you're just trying to you're holding it in, Yeah,

0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:26.000
<v Speaker 4>you are.

0:09:26.040 --> 0:09:29.079
<v Speaker 5>And and it's and when you and and I truthfully

0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:33.920
<v Speaker 5>think that they should never let two fighters come together

0:09:34.000 --> 0:09:36.840
<v Speaker 5>like that after a fight, because there's nothing worse than

0:09:37.080 --> 0:09:39.360
<v Speaker 5>the man that just you know, whether it was right,

0:09:39.400 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 5>whether it was wrong. So right there the top of

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:43.800
<v Speaker 5>your ear there, right behind the ear.

0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:44.640
<v Speaker 3>That hurts.

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:46.400
<v Speaker 4>But like I mean, yeah, if you're probably more off

0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.840
<v Speaker 4>balance than you were stunted there he missed.

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:49.800
<v Speaker 1>In your arms.

0:09:50.080 --> 0:09:52.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, and you kind of you kind of they're putting

0:09:52.840 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 5>the hands up. I mean, it's were you with a fight.

0:09:56.200 --> 0:09:57.960
<v Speaker 5>So you're you know you guys know, you get boom,

0:09:58.040 --> 0:10:00.720
<v Speaker 5>you get kind of your you're with knocked out about

0:10:00.760 --> 0:10:02.600
<v Speaker 5>you a little bit but you're still white, you're still awake,

0:10:02.600 --> 0:10:04.800
<v Speaker 5>You're still you know, you're still going, but it's there.

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:07.160
<v Speaker 5>There's a couple different types of knockouts. There's the knockouts

0:10:07.160 --> 0:10:09.280
<v Speaker 5>where you just go stiff, you know, and the toes

0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.080
<v Speaker 5>are curling, and then there's the other ones where you

0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:13.520
<v Speaker 5>just loosey goosey. So it's kind of a it's a

0:10:13.520 --> 0:10:15.840
<v Speaker 5>weird thing, you know, the way the body, the way

0:10:15.840 --> 0:10:18.880
<v Speaker 5>the body handles damage like that. But yeah, so my

0:10:18.960 --> 0:10:20.920
<v Speaker 5>body kind of went limp. You kind of just lose.

0:10:21.120 --> 0:10:24.239
<v Speaker 5>You don't lose consciousness, you almost just lose your equilibrium.

0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 5>You lose That's what happened.

0:10:26.679 --> 0:10:30.400
<v Speaker 2>You always because the staff will always be concerned about

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.599
<v Speaker 2>I mean in me too, I'm always wondering about you.

0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:35.640
<v Speaker 2>I might concuss or not, because sometimes I'll take hits

0:10:35.640 --> 0:10:39.440
<v Speaker 2>on the head and I'll just like lose the present moment,

0:10:39.720 --> 0:10:41.400
<v Speaker 2>Like i might not be able to feel anything for

0:10:41.440 --> 0:10:43.440
<v Speaker 2>a second, but I'm all there and literally I'm snapped

0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:45.800
<v Speaker 2>out of it. Yeah, you know, after after a second.

0:10:45.800 --> 0:10:47.719
<v Speaker 2>There was one time we always laugh about it. There's

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 2>just Limon, who hit me? He's like night night, motherfucker,

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:52.120
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I was like stiff, and I couldn't

0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:54.000
<v Speaker 2>really get up at that on that one. But there's

0:10:54.000 --> 0:10:56.000
<v Speaker 2>been a couple to where they'll be coming out hey

0:10:56.000 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 2>stay down, stad down, and I'm like, yo, I'm literally

0:10:57.720 --> 0:11:00.559
<v Speaker 2>fine now. But I kind of took it for a second.

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Is that Is that what you felt when you took

0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:03.640
<v Speaker 2>that shot in the back of the head.

0:11:03.679 --> 0:11:05.240
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean it's it's well, it's one of those

0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:06.760
<v Speaker 5>things too where you kind of have that flash of

0:11:07.160 --> 0:11:11.000
<v Speaker 5>not much memory too. Yeah, you know, but as you

0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:12.840
<v Speaker 5>can see when I when I went down, I saw

0:11:12.840 --> 0:11:15.400
<v Speaker 5>the punch coming and I dodged it, so I had

0:11:15.400 --> 0:11:17.200
<v Speaker 5>my wits about me there, or maybe it was just instinct.

0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:19.120
<v Speaker 5>And that's why that is one of the reasons why

0:11:19.120 --> 0:11:21.959
<v Speaker 5>we have to train so hard. We train sixty minutes

0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:23.760
<v Speaker 5>for a twenty five minute fight, right, you know, forty

0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:26.000
<v Speaker 5>five minutes for a fifteen minute fight, because you want

0:11:26.000 --> 0:11:29.320
<v Speaker 5>your body to be able to react on just instinct, right,

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.360
<v Speaker 5>you know. But yeah, that was more of a body

0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:33.840
<v Speaker 5>went limp for a second. But I was, I was

0:11:33.880 --> 0:11:37.160
<v Speaker 5>there and then I remember pretty much everything after that.

0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.880
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, I mean, you're sure you're getting up too,

0:11:40.040 --> 0:11:42.240
<v Speaker 4>like you're you're trying to get up. But then a ref,

0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:44.240
<v Speaker 4>you contel has already made the decision. He's already putting

0:11:44.280 --> 0:11:47.240
<v Speaker 4>himself in there. And I don't know what it is

0:11:47.280 --> 0:11:49.840
<v Speaker 4>to be a ref, especially in all bellotore right, it

0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:52.400
<v Speaker 4>was called bellator. You have seen those types of things.

0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:54.560
<v Speaker 4>But I feel like when you make a decision, you

0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:57.320
<v Speaker 4>have to be very quick because there's being punches thrown. Yeah,

0:11:57.360 --> 0:11:59.120
<v Speaker 4>so if you're like, I got to okay, the fight's over,

0:11:59.559 --> 0:12:00.559
<v Speaker 4>you got to dive in there.

0:12:00.640 --> 0:12:03.360
<v Speaker 3>Nothing twice about it. I think if he waited half a.

0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:08.160
<v Speaker 5>Well, and that's and I think that's what it is too.

0:12:08.200 --> 0:12:09.720
<v Speaker 5>I would not want that job. I mean probably the

0:12:09.720 --> 0:12:10.439
<v Speaker 5>same thing with you guys.

0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:11.640
<v Speaker 3>You wouldn't want to be an.

0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:13.719
<v Speaker 5>NFL ref either, when the whole game could be on

0:12:13.760 --> 0:12:18.040
<v Speaker 5>your back. Nobody wants Nobody wants to be that, right.

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:19.800
<v Speaker 5>You know, they don't get they don't get paid enough

0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 5>for the you know, the the position they're in. But

0:12:22.440 --> 0:12:24.719
<v Speaker 5>you know, especially in mixed martial arts, like you said, yeah,

0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:27.360
<v Speaker 5>they have to make a split second decision based upon

0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:29.959
<v Speaker 5>what they see, and a lot of times it happened.

0:12:29.960 --> 0:12:32.400
<v Speaker 5>It happened with a guy that I wrestled with, Ben

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:36.120
<v Speaker 5>asking remember him yeah, so he he had a really

0:12:36.200 --> 0:12:37.640
<v Speaker 5>bad that was that was bad.

0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:41.320
<v Speaker 1>That was une flying.

0:12:41.440 --> 0:12:44.520
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so that was bad. Bring that up, Ben Asking.

0:12:44.679 --> 0:12:48.240
<v Speaker 5>But before that, he had a guy it looked like

0:12:48.280 --> 0:12:50.920
<v Speaker 5>he was choked choked him out, so the ref jumped

0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 5>in and then right right as the ref jumped in,

0:12:53.000 --> 0:12:55.240
<v Speaker 5>so he let go and the guy Robbi Lawler was

0:12:55.280 --> 0:12:56.319
<v Speaker 5>just like, what happened? What are you doing?

0:12:56.400 --> 0:12:58.280
<v Speaker 4>You know, when it comes to chokeouts, I feel like

0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:01.079
<v Speaker 4>you either got to tap you right, he's kind of

0:13:01.120 --> 0:13:03.640
<v Speaker 4>It's super easy to tell when someone's lost consciousness, especially

0:13:03.800 --> 0:13:05.959
<v Speaker 4>and choking it out.

0:13:06.000 --> 0:13:06.760
<v Speaker 5>This is bad, dude.

0:13:06.800 --> 0:13:08.600
<v Speaker 2>This isn't the flying knee I was telling you about

0:13:08.760 --> 0:13:10.640
<v Speaker 2>that we should have talked about while you're yelling at me.

0:13:13.640 --> 0:13:14.559
<v Speaker 3>It's nice in the morning.

0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:16.720
<v Speaker 5>So here's the very beginning of the fight.

0:13:17.880 --> 0:13:21.480
<v Speaker 3>This dude comes, Oh he's down.

0:13:22.280 --> 0:13:26.480
<v Speaker 5>That's the beginning, you know, houck stracking him to the fight.

0:13:26.760 --> 0:13:27.160
<v Speaker 1>So it's you.

0:13:27.200 --> 0:13:28.520
<v Speaker 3>You know that dude taught at the ship out of

0:13:28.559 --> 0:13:31.000
<v Speaker 3>him and he was out too. Yeah, So who's this cat?

0:13:31.679 --> 0:13:34.199
<v Speaker 5>So this is the guy that guy just knocked out?

0:13:34.240 --> 0:13:37.160
<v Speaker 5>Was Ben asking? You guys wrestled together one of the

0:13:37.200 --> 0:13:38.400
<v Speaker 5>greatest human beings on earth.

0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>But you know, yeah, no doubt.

0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:47.520
<v Speaker 5>But this dude right here, man long hair, freaking braided

0:13:47.600 --> 0:13:49.960
<v Speaker 5>in the backyard, you know, some shorts on, no shirt,

0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.840
<v Speaker 5>just blaring it out, bare knuckle. And now he's been

0:13:52.920 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 5>in and he's been in all the all the major organizations,

0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:56.480
<v Speaker 5>even in the Strike Force. He was in BELATOI, now

0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:58.600
<v Speaker 5>I was in the UFC. Honestly, he was written off

0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:00.560
<v Speaker 5>for a long time. He's got like thirteen fift he losses.

0:14:00.640 --> 0:14:03.760
<v Speaker 5>But that's what this sport, That's what this sport breeds.

0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 5>You're as long as you can go from setback to

0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:10.319
<v Speaker 5>setback or loss the loss without losing the momentum or

0:14:10.360 --> 0:14:12.760
<v Speaker 5>losing the faith, or maybe you just don't have another option,

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:14.280
<v Speaker 5>you know. I mean like if I lost a bunch

0:14:14.320 --> 0:14:15.640
<v Speaker 5>of fights in a row, I'd probably be like, Okay,

0:14:15.640 --> 0:14:17.760
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna hang it up, and these move on to

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:19.760
<v Speaker 5>other endeavors. But you know a lot of these guys

0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:21.360
<v Speaker 5>don't have a lot to fall back on them either.

0:14:21.400 --> 0:14:22.040
<v Speaker 1>They're still fighting.

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.120
<v Speaker 2>Like Arlovsky I just saw fighting the other night and

0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 2>I was like, Yo, what the mark is he still fighting?

0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:26.520
<v Speaker 1>Now? Dude?

0:14:26.520 --> 0:14:29.440
<v Speaker 5>He's any any just set three records twenty years Yeah,

0:14:29.640 --> 0:14:30.400
<v Speaker 5>twenty years he was.

0:14:30.600 --> 0:14:35.000
<v Speaker 1>He was a champ too, like like eighteen years ago.

0:14:35.160 --> 0:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>But he's know, why is he still fighting?

0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:39.280
<v Speaker 5>He's just yeah, And I bet you know, he's getting

0:14:39.320 --> 0:14:41.640
<v Speaker 5>paid pretty I'm sure he's getting paid really well. And

0:14:41.760 --> 0:14:44.240
<v Speaker 5>he's you know, I don't know. Those heavyweights can always

0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:46.160
<v Speaker 5>fight longer than a lot of the lighter weights because

0:14:46.440 --> 0:14:50.560
<v Speaker 5>it's not as much based on speed and and cardio

0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:52.680
<v Speaker 5>and that kind of stuff. You know, they're just bigger,

0:14:52.720 --> 0:14:57.160
<v Speaker 5>and everything's a little slower barbaric, barbarics technical, not maybe

0:14:57.200 --> 0:14:59.760
<v Speaker 5>not as not not as technical, but just everything is

0:14:59.760 --> 0:15:01.720
<v Speaker 5>a a lot slower. Like so for me, I'm going

0:15:01.800 --> 0:15:04.920
<v Speaker 5>to lose my speed and my quickness compared to another

0:15:04.960 --> 0:15:08.440
<v Speaker 5>fifty five Yeah, a lot faster, a lot faster than

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:11.040
<v Speaker 5>and Arlovsky who's now forty something years old. He can

0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 5>still hang with those those heavyweights now they all get

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.600
<v Speaker 5>you know, take a lot of damage to get knocked

0:15:15.600 --> 0:15:17.640
<v Speaker 5>out a lot. So hopefully hopefully they're all right.

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:21.800
<v Speaker 3>But that's a lot of information. I just close. What's okay?

0:15:21.880 --> 0:15:23.720
<v Speaker 4>So I walked in here, said, UFC, you fight, you

0:15:23.800 --> 0:15:26.160
<v Speaker 4>fight for beltar BELATOI yeah, So what's the difference between

0:15:26.160 --> 0:15:28.960
<v Speaker 4>belatour UFC, and what was the other one Force Strikeforce.

0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.320
<v Speaker 5>Strike Force is an older organization. They're not they're not

0:15:31.360 --> 0:15:34.680
<v Speaker 5>around anymore. UFC bought them. There's one FC that's mainly

0:15:34.720 --> 0:15:36.560
<v Speaker 5>based over in Asia. They're coming over here, opening up

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:42.480
<v Speaker 5>US US offices here. But essentially it's all the same sport.

0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:44.160
<v Speaker 5>It would be just it would be exactly like the

0:15:44.280 --> 0:15:46.400
<v Speaker 5>rules that you guys play in the NFL, and a

0:15:46.520 --> 0:15:48.280
<v Speaker 5>new league came up with the exact same leag but

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.480
<v Speaker 5>it was just a different league. The main difference. The

0:15:51.560 --> 0:15:53.560
<v Speaker 5>main difference is the UFC is the biggest. It's been

0:15:53.600 --> 0:15:56.680
<v Speaker 5>around since nineteen ninety three, so they've just celebrated their

0:15:56.720 --> 0:15:59.440
<v Speaker 5>twenty fifth anniversary. Belotore has been around since two thousand

0:15:59.440 --> 0:16:01.760
<v Speaker 5>and eight, so they're, you know, just ten years into it.

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:04.920
<v Speaker 5>So Bellotour's gaining steam. One FC is coming, you know,

0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.320
<v Speaker 5>coming in with with taking taking kind of the may

0:16:08.360 --> 0:16:10.640
<v Speaker 5>world by storm because they're paying guys better and you know,

0:16:10.760 --> 0:16:13.160
<v Speaker 5>doing some big shows over in Asia. So Bellatore's taken

0:16:13.240 --> 0:16:15.080
<v Speaker 5>really great care of me. I've been with them since

0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:17.360
<v Speaker 5>the beginning of my career. Really I came in. They

0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:19.000
<v Speaker 5>used to do a tournament where it'd be eight eight

0:16:19.080 --> 0:16:22.080
<v Speaker 5>guys in a bracket, three fights in three months. So

0:16:22.120 --> 0:16:24.880
<v Speaker 5>I fought March, April and May of twenty eleven and

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:27.520
<v Speaker 5>oh that's dope, and then fought November twenty eleven. It

0:16:27.600 --> 0:16:30.040
<v Speaker 5>was like one hundred thousand dollars tournament, and then I

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:32.000
<v Speaker 5>fought for the world title all in one year. So

0:16:32.120 --> 0:16:34.080
<v Speaker 5>I saw a great path to be able to get

0:16:34.160 --> 0:16:37.720
<v Speaker 5>to you know, top five in the world with Belatore,

0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:40.200
<v Speaker 5>and then I've kind of made myself an indispensable asset

0:16:40.240 --> 0:16:41.040
<v Speaker 5>and that's always the goal.

0:16:41.240 --> 0:16:43.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, do you have do you want to be in

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:43.560
<v Speaker 1>the UFC?

0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:47.440
<v Speaker 2>Like what I like, what's the thought behind sitting back

0:16:47.520 --> 0:16:50.280
<v Speaker 2>and being like, obviously UFC is the most popular, it's

0:16:50.280 --> 0:16:52.960
<v Speaker 2>the most known, and you know the ins and outs

0:16:52.960 --> 0:16:54.680
<v Speaker 2>of it. So you're like, oh, I'm gonna stay putting

0:16:54.680 --> 0:16:57.200
<v Speaker 2>beltur for I know my reasons why, and they're better reasons,

0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:58.120
<v Speaker 2>but it's just you.

0:16:58.200 --> 0:16:59.840
<v Speaker 1>It's like, yeall want to get in the fucking UFC.

0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:02.520
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, Just to put things into perspective too, like the NFL,

0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:05.399
<v Speaker 4>Like there's there's a bunch of the league, there's the XFL.

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:07.240
<v Speaker 4>There was a a f a f L right, a

0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:10.720
<v Speaker 4>aa aof or something like that. They just they seventy

0:17:11.040 --> 0:17:13.720
<v Speaker 4>dollars down the drain, like didn't even get a whole season. Uh,

0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:15.960
<v Speaker 4>there's this the CFL. Like there's a whole bunch of

0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:17.680
<v Speaker 4>different football leagues.

0:17:17.480 --> 0:17:18.440
<v Speaker 5>But the one is the NFL.

0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:20.200
<v Speaker 4>Everybody wants to play in the NFL is with the money,

0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:22.640
<v Speaker 4>is the best, publicity is the best, the best team,

0:17:22.720 --> 0:17:24.560
<v Speaker 4>is the best talent and all that. I don't know

0:17:24.560 --> 0:17:26.560
<v Speaker 4>if that like I think, I don't know if that

0:17:26.600 --> 0:17:28.640
<v Speaker 4>is it the same or as Belts were.

0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:29.840
<v Speaker 1>Like Belt is pretty real.

0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:33.879
<v Speaker 3>But the UFC you think of like Econocon McGregor. You

0:17:33.960 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 3>have the Na Diaz guy, you had all the all

0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 3>those dudes and.

0:17:36.520 --> 0:17:38.480
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so here here here's what I would say. School

0:17:38.520 --> 0:17:40.640
<v Speaker 5>is bro let me school you guys up real quick.

0:17:40.720 --> 0:17:43.359
<v Speaker 5>And it's hard to because you know, like to be

0:17:43.560 --> 0:17:46.160
<v Speaker 5>real truthful will hurt people's feelings in this kind of stuff.

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:48.919
<v Speaker 5>But but really, when you have all the power you can,

0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.200
<v Speaker 5>you can suppress the wages. Right, So it's actually the opposite.

0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:54.640
<v Speaker 5>So the UFC is the biggest organization, yet I would

0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:59.600
<v Speaker 5>say that they pay they pay less to the smaller third,

0:17:59.800 --> 0:18:03.040
<v Speaker 5>the smaller you know of the guys now now well,

0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:05.440
<v Speaker 5>I will say, if you go over there, you play

0:18:05.440 --> 0:18:07.680
<v Speaker 5>your cards right, you when your you win your fights,

0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:10.679
<v Speaker 5>you do your job, you can make millions and millions

0:18:10.680 --> 0:18:12.960
<v Speaker 5>of dollars like Connor has, like Kabeb has, like like

0:18:13.080 --> 0:18:16.000
<v Speaker 5>John Jones, and these person that can help you exactly

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:17.800
<v Speaker 5>and in that they're in the top one percent. So

0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:20.760
<v Speaker 5>it's it's it's hard to say, but I've I've made

0:18:20.840 --> 0:18:23.959
<v Speaker 5>my decisions based upon what's the best decision for myself

0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.399
<v Speaker 5>and my family, my future family. Whenever I was you know,

0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:29.000
<v Speaker 5>just had a wife and didn't have a son. Now,

0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:31.840
<v Speaker 5>but now I just signed another contract about it a

0:18:31.960 --> 0:18:34.280
<v Speaker 5>year ago and have another year or so left on it.

0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:37.040
<v Speaker 5>And I made that decision based upon finances. I mean,

0:18:37.080 --> 0:18:39.760
<v Speaker 5>you don't go, you don't leave your current job, your

0:18:39.840 --> 0:18:43.560
<v Speaker 5>current company, your current situation for a different situation that

0:18:43.600 --> 0:18:45.920
<v Speaker 5>will pay you less, that you might might get less

0:18:45.920 --> 0:18:47.800
<v Speaker 5>respect and all that. Because the other thing, too is

0:18:47.960 --> 0:18:50.200
<v Speaker 5>I am I've made myself an indispensable asset to it

0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:52.640
<v Speaker 5>to a great organization was take really taking really really

0:18:52.680 --> 0:18:54.680
<v Speaker 5>great care of me. If I go to the UFC,

0:18:54.760 --> 0:18:57.040
<v Speaker 5>I'm just another face as well. Now guy, Now there's

0:18:57.080 --> 0:18:58.760
<v Speaker 5>people all over the world and I see it every day,

0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:00.320
<v Speaker 5>and I would love to see you fight. I'd love

0:19:00.320 --> 0:19:01.280
<v Speaker 5>to see if fight could be. But we'd love to

0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:02.880
<v Speaker 5>see you fight these top guys in the world because

0:19:02.880 --> 0:19:04.920
<v Speaker 5>they think I can hang with them or maybe even

0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:08.479
<v Speaker 5>beat them. But going in making less money and then

0:19:08.560 --> 0:19:11.639
<v Speaker 5>having to fight five of the top five of the

0:19:11.720 --> 0:19:14.200
<v Speaker 5>top ten guys just to get to that maybe title

0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:15.919
<v Speaker 5>shot where they can dangle the carrot and say, hey,

0:19:16.000 --> 0:19:18.480
<v Speaker 5>if you win these five fights plus this one, you'll

0:19:18.480 --> 0:19:20.720
<v Speaker 5>make X amount of dollars. Blah blah blah. I'm not

0:19:20.840 --> 0:19:22.200
<v Speaker 5>into that. I've proven myself, you know.

0:19:22.480 --> 0:19:25.960
<v Speaker 2>So you're even saying the bellatour like they they they

0:19:26.040 --> 0:19:28.080
<v Speaker 2>can take care of guys better than what the UFC

0:19:28.200 --> 0:19:28.480
<v Speaker 2>would do.

0:19:28.800 --> 0:19:31.040
<v Speaker 5>So I think I think it's just spread out a

0:19:31.119 --> 0:19:33.520
<v Speaker 5>little bit more. I think I think the highest earners

0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:37.359
<v Speaker 5>in the entire world will always be the UFC guys

0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:39.280
<v Speaker 5>because of the pay per view model, because of how

0:19:39.359 --> 0:19:41.240
<v Speaker 5>big they are and how much money they spend promoting it.

0:19:41.600 --> 0:19:43.800
<v Speaker 5>But there's I mean, when you see when you see

0:19:44.119 --> 0:19:48.240
<v Speaker 5>you know, myself and Ryan Bader, fad or Amillionenko, you know,

0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:51.480
<v Speaker 5>all these all these big name guys, big high, high

0:19:51.600 --> 0:19:53.880
<v Speaker 5>level athlete. Guys that are that are making really great

0:19:53.960 --> 0:19:56.960
<v Speaker 5>money for the sport. When it comes to the sport,

0:19:57.000 --> 0:19:59.680
<v Speaker 5>we're making extremely good money up in that top one percent,

0:20:00.000 --> 0:20:03.800
<v Speaker 5>but the lower half of the UFC and even the

0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:05.720
<v Speaker 5>lower half of bellators not making a lot of money.

0:20:05.760 --> 0:20:07.359
<v Speaker 5>This is a hard, hard business to make a lot

0:20:07.400 --> 0:20:09.560
<v Speaker 5>of money in. And the older I get, the longer

0:20:09.600 --> 0:20:11.360
<v Speaker 5>I'm in the sport, the more I realize how truly

0:20:11.440 --> 0:20:13.080
<v Speaker 5>blessed I am to be in the sport for ten

0:20:13.160 --> 0:20:15.879
<v Speaker 5>years and be at competing at a high level with

0:20:16.040 --> 0:20:17.879
<v Speaker 5>all the world titles that I fought for, and then

0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:20.200
<v Speaker 5>making the money that I'm making too. So it's it's

0:20:20.240 --> 0:20:22.480
<v Speaker 5>a crazy sport. And I would you know, all you

0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:25.080
<v Speaker 5>young kids out there who you know, I can't wait

0:20:25.119 --> 0:20:27.440
<v Speaker 5>to be an m fighter someday. It's uh, it's tough,

0:20:27.480 --> 0:20:28.720
<v Speaker 5>and you got to play your cards right, just like

0:20:28.760 --> 0:20:29.840
<v Speaker 5>being in the NFL, right, you know.

0:20:30.080 --> 0:20:34.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, man, there's I mean, I can't imagine going like

0:20:34.320 --> 0:20:36.160
<v Speaker 4>I watched the UFC fights all the time, and I'm

0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:38.840
<v Speaker 4>watching these dudes walk in and walking to the ring,

0:20:38.880 --> 0:20:41.520
<v Speaker 4>and I'm like, I can't even imagine that feeling. Yeah, Like, well,

0:20:41.520 --> 0:20:43.240
<v Speaker 4>it's probably like it's probably walking out of the tunnel.

0:20:43.720 --> 0:20:45.640
<v Speaker 4>But the same thing, it's like, yeah, I got fifty

0:20:45.680 --> 0:20:46.280
<v Speaker 4>three dudes with me.

0:20:46.640 --> 0:20:51.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know what I'm saying.

0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:53.439
<v Speaker 3>And if you by yourself with like your.

0:20:53.560 --> 0:20:56.240
<v Speaker 4>Your crew, your trainers, cameras and you and people is

0:20:56.280 --> 0:20:57.920
<v Speaker 4>in your face, you got your song going. And it's

0:20:58.000 --> 0:21:00.520
<v Speaker 4>like that's got to be such a surreal feeling. And

0:21:01.160 --> 0:21:03.520
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, man, the stresses that have to come

0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:05.719
<v Speaker 4>with just walking into that ring with somebody. There's got

0:21:05.800 --> 0:21:08.600
<v Speaker 4>to be I mean, there's so much viewing and stuff

0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:10.160
<v Speaker 4>like that. There's lots of money out there. I don't

0:21:10.200 --> 0:21:11.480
<v Speaker 4>know why guys aren't getting paid.

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:12.119
<v Speaker 1>You know.

0:21:12.280 --> 0:21:14.080
<v Speaker 4>The same thing for the NFL, Like there's a minimum

0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:16.720
<v Speaker 4>for everybody, right and the older you get that eventually

0:21:16.800 --> 0:21:18.879
<v Speaker 4>that minimum gets like I don't think what nine hundred,

0:21:19.119 --> 0:21:20.840
<v Speaker 4>Yeah for the older dudes and the younger When I

0:21:20.960 --> 0:21:23.080
<v Speaker 4>was a rookie, it was like four to twenty or

0:21:23.119 --> 0:21:25.840
<v Speaker 4>something like that. But it's like there's so much money,

0:21:25.880 --> 0:21:29.040
<v Speaker 4>and you would think, like, you know, you offer more money,

0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:30.520
<v Speaker 4>you're gonna have those kids that want to fight.

0:21:30.680 --> 0:21:30.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:21:30.920 --> 0:21:33.240
<v Speaker 5>Well, and that's the thing too. I don't want to

0:21:33.240 --> 0:21:35.560
<v Speaker 5>make this a you know, bashing on the organizations like

0:21:35.560 --> 0:21:37.720
<v Speaker 5>they should pay us more. We should get paid more

0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:40.960
<v Speaker 5>for what we do in the UFC. Rightfully, so without

0:21:41.080 --> 0:21:43.840
<v Speaker 5>what Dana White and Lorenzo for Tita and Frank Furtida,

0:21:43.920 --> 0:21:47.760
<v Speaker 5>what those guys did starting this, starting this sport, paving

0:21:47.800 --> 0:21:49.000
<v Speaker 5>the way for all of us to be able to

0:21:49.000 --> 0:21:51.200
<v Speaker 5>make a living, I'm making a living in an organization

0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:53.800
<v Speaker 5>I've never I've never even spoken to Day and Dana White,

0:21:53.840 --> 0:21:56.040
<v Speaker 5>I've never I've never been in the UFC, You've never

0:21:56.080 --> 0:21:58.560
<v Speaker 5>fought in the octagon. But yet what they did since

0:21:58.640 --> 0:22:02.360
<v Speaker 5>nineteen ninety three has made me, you know, very financially

0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 5>secure to be able to take care of my family

0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:06.800
<v Speaker 5>fighting in a different organization because off of the back

0:22:06.840 --> 0:22:10.520
<v Speaker 5>of the biggest organization in the world and their kind

0:22:10.560 --> 0:22:13.320
<v Speaker 5>of their stock inside the world. So they, you know,

0:22:13.600 --> 0:22:15.800
<v Speaker 5>they deserve to to to make their share as well.

0:22:15.800 --> 0:22:17.280
<v Speaker 5>It would be nice if we made more, But it's

0:22:17.560 --> 0:22:20.000
<v Speaker 5>you know, going back to stepping into the cage, it's

0:22:20.040 --> 0:22:22.040
<v Speaker 5>it's pretty crazy. You know, you just have to know

0:22:22.160 --> 0:22:24.520
<v Speaker 5>that you've done everything you possibly can. You have to

0:22:24.560 --> 0:22:26.760
<v Speaker 5>be you really just have to be willing and able

0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:30.240

0:22:30.480 --> 0:22:32.440
<v Speaker 5>just just like my last fight. Man, that's embarrassing. You know,

<v Speaker 3>So now and then it's a big deal and we're moving.

0:23:50.600 --> 0:23:52.320
<v Speaker 1>Now we're done.

0:23:52.400 --> 0:23:56.719
<v Speaker 5>They stopped the fight with He's like, what stopped? I mean,

0:23:57.200 --> 0:23:58.920
<v Speaker 5>this is my favorite party and they got my back

0:23:59.000 --> 0:24:01.119
<v Speaker 5>on this sil Man see And that's and that's the

0:24:01.160 --> 0:24:03.879
<v Speaker 5>funny thing too. Mixed marshal Let is very similar. Like

0:24:04.000 --> 0:24:06.920
<v Speaker 5>I'm I'm literally training right now with the with the

0:24:07.040 --> 0:24:10.520
<v Speaker 5>team that I lost my first fight ever I lost.

0:24:10.520 --> 0:24:12.800
<v Speaker 5>I beat Eddie Alvarez to win the world title. Work

0:24:12.920 --> 0:24:14.879
<v Speaker 5>is huge, which is huge, But then I lost to

0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.320
<v Speaker 5>him about two years later. I'm now training with the

0:24:17.400 --> 0:24:20.960
<v Speaker 5>team that that coached him. I'm now training my my

0:24:21.040 --> 0:24:24.359
<v Speaker 5>head coach, My main head coach coached Eddie Alvarez against

0:24:24.440 --> 0:24:27.520
<v Speaker 5>me two years ago when I lost that fight. Right,

0:24:27.560 --> 0:24:29.640
<v Speaker 5>So it's just it's a weird. It's weird how it's

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.480
<v Speaker 5>such a big world but it's so so small. Just

0:24:32.520 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 5>like you say, Cameron wakes over there, high five and

0:24:34.640 --> 0:24:38.359
<v Speaker 5>his boys just laid you out, and now he's trying to.

0:24:38.400 --> 0:24:41.160
<v Speaker 3>Lay people out for you, right, you know, so that's crazy.

0:24:41.200 --> 0:24:42.040
<v Speaker 1>How was that conversation?

0:24:42.119 --> 0:24:45.439
<v Speaker 4>What did he so it was like a Regen day

0:24:45.520 --> 0:24:47.480
<v Speaker 4>during OTAs and I was like, Cam, we got a problem.

0:24:48.000 --> 0:24:50.240
<v Speaker 4>And Cam is like a super like soft spoken dude,

0:24:50.359 --> 0:24:52.639
<v Speaker 4>nicest guy, and he's like, what's wrong? And I was like,

0:24:53.440 --> 0:24:55.560
<v Speaker 4>you boy, brandch knocking with the funk out like a

0:24:55.680 --> 0:24:58.960
<v Speaker 4>year high five whatever, Oh what's the deal? And his

0:24:59.119 --> 0:25:02.240
<v Speaker 4>words allegedly he says he didn't know, Like he's like,

0:25:02.560 --> 0:25:04.200
<v Speaker 4>I didn't know, Like I knew there's a commotions. Someone

0:25:04.240 --> 0:25:05.879
<v Speaker 4>got hit, but I don't know who did it or

0:25:06.600 --> 0:25:07.159
<v Speaker 4>or anything like that.

0:25:07.400 --> 0:25:07.440
<v Speaker 5>No.

0:25:07.760 --> 0:25:10.919
<v Speaker 4>I feel like if it was anybody else, Honestly, if

0:25:10.960 --> 0:25:12.480
<v Speaker 4>it was anybody else, I feel like I'd be like,

0:25:12.680 --> 0:25:14.879
<v Speaker 4>you're full of shit. But Cam, like you watch him

0:25:14.880 --> 0:25:16.639
<v Speaker 4>play games and he's lily just there to get the

0:25:16.720 --> 0:25:20.080
<v Speaker 4>quarterback and go home, yea, so locked in you look,

0:25:20.160 --> 0:25:22.880
<v Speaker 4>it doesn't look like he focused on the riff raft

0:25:22.920 --> 0:25:23.400
<v Speaker 4>the bullshit.

0:25:24.200 --> 0:25:26.000
<v Speaker 5>It is funny too because because people will say that

0:25:26.080 --> 0:25:27.479
<v Speaker 5>kind of stuff, you know, what what did you think

0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:28.320
<v Speaker 5>when this guy did that?

0:25:28.480 --> 0:25:28.920
<v Speaker 1>Or he did that?

0:25:29.000 --> 0:25:32.040
<v Speaker 5>And it's kind of interesting too because I really don't

0:25:32.160 --> 0:25:35.480
<v Speaker 5>look at it like the the entity that I'm about

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:36.920
<v Speaker 5>to fight is a human being.

0:25:37.080 --> 0:25:37.640
<v Speaker 1>I just see.

0:25:37.720 --> 0:25:39.879
<v Speaker 5>I just see two arms and I see two legs.

0:25:39.880 --> 0:25:41.560
<v Speaker 5>That's my size, and he's trying to take food off

0:25:41.600 --> 0:25:43.600
<v Speaker 5>the off the table for my family. And I don't

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:47.120
<v Speaker 5>really look at him like it's a person his personality.

0:25:47.240 --> 0:25:48.560
<v Speaker 5>Got a job and yeah you got you got a

0:25:48.640 --> 0:25:49.920
<v Speaker 5>job to do, and you just you do it and

0:25:50.040 --> 0:25:52.040
<v Speaker 5>a lot of times you black out, just go after it.

0:25:52.240 --> 0:25:54.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know what's that emotion?

0:25:54.840 --> 0:25:57.400
<v Speaker 2>Like, Like, obviously you trained for months at a time

0:25:57.600 --> 0:26:01.919
<v Speaker 2>and it's just you're hard working and you start walking

0:26:02.000 --> 0:26:05.280
<v Speaker 2>to the ring and that adrenaline dump or how much

0:26:05.280 --> 0:26:07.359
<v Speaker 2>do you have to probably mentally train for something like

0:26:07.480 --> 0:26:09.280
<v Speaker 2>or a young guy that you're he's probably going into

0:26:09.320 --> 0:26:12.399
<v Speaker 2>his first fight, maybe the big dance walking to the octagon, Like, Yo,

0:26:12.440 --> 0:26:14.160
<v Speaker 2>what are the emotions going back? Here's what you're gonna

0:26:14.160 --> 0:26:17.480
<v Speaker 2>be looking for. Here's how you gotta suppress certain emotions.

0:26:17.520 --> 0:26:20.280
<v Speaker 2>Because again, like it's just you, dude, it's just you.

0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:22.359
<v Speaker 2>And once you enter that ring and it's kind of

0:26:22.440 --> 0:26:25.399
<v Speaker 2>dark and you know everyone's out there and the spotlight's on, like,

0:26:25.520 --> 0:26:27.480
<v Speaker 2>it's got to be a different feeling. And obviously we're

0:26:27.520 --> 0:26:29.600
<v Speaker 2>all jacked to go train every day, but now when

0:26:29.600 --> 0:26:31.879
<v Speaker 2>you're fucking in the arena and the lights are on,

0:26:32.080 --> 0:26:34.000
<v Speaker 2>You're just kind of like, what is that emotion?

0:26:34.200 --> 0:26:36.600
<v Speaker 5>Like, yeah, man, you hit the nail on the head

0:26:36.640 --> 0:26:38.760
<v Speaker 5>when you talk about actually having to suppress a lot

0:26:38.800 --> 0:26:41.440
<v Speaker 5>of it too, because I mean, human human emotion, human

0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:44.840
<v Speaker 5>human the human spirit wants to get up for those

0:26:44.880 --> 0:26:48.320
<v Speaker 5>types of types of scenarios. That's why visualizing it stepping

0:26:48.400 --> 0:26:50.359
<v Speaker 5>into the cage before you actually step into the cage.

0:26:50.640 --> 0:26:52.080
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I can close my eyes and I can

0:26:52.160 --> 0:26:54.879
<v Speaker 5>see the walk, I can smell what the cage smells like.

0:26:54.960 --> 0:26:56.640
<v Speaker 5>I can I can feel the heat of the lights.

0:26:56.680 --> 0:26:58.400
<v Speaker 5>I can feel kind of the rumble of the crowd

0:26:58.480 --> 0:27:00.800
<v Speaker 5>like you guys probably can on the field. You can

0:27:00.880 --> 0:27:02.040
<v Speaker 5>feel it. You got it. You got to feel it

0:27:02.080 --> 0:27:05.120
<v Speaker 5>before you actually get there. And really just just realizing

0:27:05.240 --> 0:27:09.080
<v Speaker 5>what where your emotion Like there's a spectrum from you know,

0:27:09.400 --> 0:27:12.119
<v Speaker 5>emotion to energy, and you want to get to an area.

0:27:12.160 --> 0:27:13.440
<v Speaker 5>You want to get to that number, if it's a

0:27:13.440 --> 0:27:14.840
<v Speaker 5>one through ten, you want to get to that number

0:27:15.000 --> 0:27:17.480
<v Speaker 5>where you're gonna perform the best, where you're gonna flow,

0:27:17.520 --> 0:27:19.280
<v Speaker 5>where you're gonna where you're gonna be at your best,

0:27:19.320 --> 0:27:21.480
<v Speaker 5>and kind of fire and all cylinders for me, it

0:27:21.520 --> 0:27:23.600
<v Speaker 5>should be about a five, should be no higher than

0:27:23.600 --> 0:27:24.760
<v Speaker 5>a five. I don't want to I don't want to

0:27:24.800 --> 0:27:26.760
<v Speaker 5>have a lot of emotion because emotion drives the heart

0:27:26.840 --> 0:27:28.879
<v Speaker 5>rate up and drives all that stuff up. And a

0:27:28.920 --> 0:27:31.360
<v Speaker 5>lot of times can we make a mistake. But also

0:27:31.440 --> 0:27:33.440
<v Speaker 5>too when you see people like in a fight and

0:27:33.560 --> 0:27:35.520
<v Speaker 5>you say, oh my gosh, he's gassed. He's not really

0:27:35.560 --> 0:27:37.640
<v Speaker 5>out of shape. He probably just got into a situation,

0:27:37.920 --> 0:27:40.280
<v Speaker 5>into a scenario where his a heart rate got elevated.

0:27:40.440 --> 0:27:42.720
<v Speaker 5>He didn't have his emotions in check, and he, you know,

0:27:42.800 --> 0:27:45.080
<v Speaker 5>he lost that cardio. Same thing with wrestling, man, Like

0:27:45.160 --> 0:27:48.399
<v Speaker 5>you know you grew up watching your brother. I'm sure, right, Cody.

0:27:48.480 --> 0:27:51.200
<v Speaker 1>I wrestled. I wrestled up until I quit have the

0:27:51.240 --> 0:27:52.159
<v Speaker 1>sixth grade. Hated it.

0:27:52.640 --> 0:27:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Parents forced me to do it again in a high

0:27:54.280 --> 0:27:56.520
<v Speaker 2>school or I would be grounded for the winter.

0:27:57.240 --> 0:27:59.040
<v Speaker 5>And you look like you when you look like you

0:27:59.200 --> 0:28:01.879
<v Speaker 5>like I. I I played football, but I didn't really

0:28:01.920 --> 0:28:03.960
<v Speaker 5>play for all. I was like, you know, I was like,

0:28:04.160 --> 0:28:06.439
<v Speaker 5>wrestling is good for me because of weight classes, right,

0:28:06.480 --> 0:28:08.719
<v Speaker 5>you know so? But you know, same thing with wrestling, man,

0:28:08.880 --> 0:28:12.280
<v Speaker 5>I had, you know, matches where you get taken down

0:28:12.320 --> 0:28:14.040
<v Speaker 5>in the first thirty seconds of a match, and all

0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:16.879
<v Speaker 5>of a sudden, you're the negativity goes to the to

0:28:17.000 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 5>the to the roof, and then all of a sudden

0:28:18.280 --> 0:28:20.320
<v Speaker 5>you lose that match, and you feel like your feed

0:28:20.320 --> 0:28:23.560
<v Speaker 5>are in quicksand and feeder in cement blocks, you know.

0:28:24.880 --> 0:28:27.280
<v Speaker 5>So as you're as you're walking into the cage. A

0:28:27.280 --> 0:28:29.840
<v Speaker 5>lot of times too, I talk about talking to myself

0:28:30.359 --> 0:28:33.760
<v Speaker 5>instead of hearing, you know. So yeah, you know, because

0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:36.639
<v Speaker 5>because I think if you just are sitting there, you know,

0:28:36.760 --> 0:28:40.640
<v Speaker 5>the human I think they are. Our brains were wired

0:28:40.680 --> 0:28:42.920
<v Speaker 5>for that, that fight or flight, that like survival mode,

0:28:42.920 --> 0:28:46.280
<v Speaker 5>and you know, and you're always worried about threats, possible threats.

0:28:46.320 --> 0:28:49.280
<v Speaker 5>There's a million perceivable threats. When you're walking into a

0:28:49.360 --> 0:28:50.760
<v Speaker 5>cage with the manu, one s rip your head off.

0:28:51.320 --> 0:28:53.400
<v Speaker 5>So instead of thinking about that, instead of just sitting

0:28:53.440 --> 0:28:55.960
<v Speaker 5>there in silence and hearing what might come into my mind,

0:28:56.000 --> 0:28:58.000
<v Speaker 5>because just one negative thought can be a can be

0:28:58.040 --> 0:29:00.280
<v Speaker 5>a waterfall that can send you down the wrong path.

0:29:00.560 --> 0:29:01.920
<v Speaker 5>So a lot of times I'm just sitting there and

0:29:01.920 --> 0:29:04.080
<v Speaker 5>I'm talking to myself, you know, whether it's audibly or

0:29:04.080 --> 0:29:06.440
<v Speaker 5>whether it's in my head talking to myself because I

0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:07.920
<v Speaker 5>can because if I can feel that space, if I

0:29:07.960 --> 0:29:11.360
<v Speaker 5>can feel that void, then the chances of any kind

0:29:11.360 --> 0:29:13.280
<v Speaker 5>of negativity coming in or are slimming on.

0:29:14.000 --> 0:29:16.240
<v Speaker 4>That fireflight, that fight or flight is so real, like

0:29:16.560 --> 0:29:18.680
<v Speaker 4>like a human being, if you bring us down, like

0:29:18.800 --> 0:29:21.440
<v Speaker 4>we're still caveman times, like we still are not evolved

0:29:21.520 --> 0:29:23.600
<v Speaker 4>enough to understand like it's gonna be like there's no

0:29:23.760 --> 0:29:26.800
<v Speaker 4>gray area, Like if there's a situation where it's high intensity,

0:29:27.200 --> 0:29:29.320
<v Speaker 4>you're gonna go a journals and start rushing. It's either

0:29:29.400 --> 0:29:30.680
<v Speaker 4>gonna tell you like I get the fuck out of

0:29:30.720 --> 0:29:33.719
<v Speaker 4>here right to bow up. That's just that's crazy. How

0:29:34.400 --> 0:29:36.560
<v Speaker 4>you think we've evolved so much, but we're really haven't.

0:29:36.560 --> 0:29:37.160
<v Speaker 3>At the end of the day.

0:29:37.160 --> 0:29:38.440
<v Speaker 4>It's still when you get put in those black and

0:29:38.480 --> 0:29:40.320
<v Speaker 4>white situations, that's gonna be one way or the other.

0:29:40.480 --> 0:29:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:29:40.880 --> 0:29:43.360
<v Speaker 5>And what I've realized too, And as the older I get,

0:29:43.400 --> 0:29:45.240
<v Speaker 5>the more I realize, I spent a lot of years

0:29:45.360 --> 0:29:48.600
<v Speaker 5>fight or flight in in my training, right, you know,

0:29:48.800 --> 0:29:51.480
<v Speaker 5>so I was I would get into a knockdown, drag

0:29:51.520 --> 0:29:54.040
<v Speaker 5>out war number one in the sparring sessions number one.

0:29:54.080 --> 0:29:55.920
<v Speaker 5>It's not good because I think a human being can

0:29:56.000 --> 0:29:57.880
<v Speaker 5>only take so many shots to the head and channing

0:29:57.920 --> 0:30:00.120
<v Speaker 5>before it's it's over right, you're.

0:30:00.240 --> 0:30:02.800
<v Speaker 4>Mush and then you got that yeah, which is I mean,

0:30:03.000 --> 0:30:05.240
<v Speaker 4>we'll get into the concussion protocol here as a stuff,

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:06.440
<v Speaker 4>go keep on fish with thoughts.

0:30:06.840 --> 0:30:08.600
<v Speaker 5>So I used to train where it was fighter flight

0:30:08.640 --> 0:30:10.239
<v Speaker 5>because I was a tough guys like I fought more

0:30:10.280 --> 0:30:11.600
<v Speaker 5>with my balls than I did my brain, and I.

0:30:11.600 --> 0:30:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Would just go, go go.

0:30:13.560 --> 0:30:15.520
<v Speaker 5>But now the older I get, the more I realize

0:30:16.760 --> 0:30:19.880
<v Speaker 5>drilling and being in more of a play fun sparring

0:30:19.960 --> 0:30:23.280
<v Speaker 5>type of scenario where there is no perceived threat, where

0:30:23.280 --> 0:30:26.680
<v Speaker 5>I'm actually cognitively thinking about what I'm doing, cognitively thinking

0:30:26.720 --> 0:30:30.800
<v Speaker 5>about different tells, different footwork, different feints, different different movements

0:30:31.080 --> 0:30:33.120
<v Speaker 5>to be able to actually break down the sparring sessions

0:30:33.160 --> 0:30:35.960
<v Speaker 5>in front of me, rather than that fighter flight. Because

0:30:35.960 --> 0:30:38.240
<v Speaker 5>I know I've already proven that I'm tough, but me

0:30:38.440 --> 0:30:40.600
<v Speaker 5>being tough inside of a cage number one is not

0:30:40.680 --> 0:30:42.480
<v Speaker 5>the best way for me to fight. I'd rather be

0:30:42.600 --> 0:30:46.280
<v Speaker 5>a technical, beat them up, walk home, or walk out

0:30:46.280 --> 0:30:48.240
<v Speaker 5>of the cage and collect paycheck. Case my wife, let's go.

0:30:49.320 --> 0:30:53.640
<v Speaker 5>So I've kind of tailored my training more towards less

0:30:53.800 --> 0:30:56.000
<v Speaker 5>fight or flight in the training because I know, if

0:30:56.040 --> 0:30:57.640
<v Speaker 5>I get into a fight where it's like, okay, it's

0:30:57.680 --> 0:30:59.920
<v Speaker 5>the fourth and fifth round I lost, I'm down around.

0:31:00.000 --> 0:31:01.960
<v Speaker 5>I gotta win these next two rounds to win the fight,

0:31:03.160 --> 0:31:04.880
<v Speaker 5>I'm gonna I mean, I can sack up and go,

0:31:05.160 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 5>so I know I can do that. So it's more

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:07.600
<v Speaker 5>about being technical.

0:31:08.080 --> 0:31:11.040
<v Speaker 2>You were on the Joe Rogan podcast Shout Out Joe Rogan,

0:31:11.040 --> 0:31:15.160
<v Speaker 2>we want you on the bus one day you're on. Yeah,

0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:17.800
<v Speaker 2>I was listening to your episode, Joe, and you're huge

0:31:17.880 --> 0:31:20.160
<v Speaker 2>on visualization, which is stuff we've talked about.

0:31:19.920 --> 0:31:22.800
<v Speaker 1>Before, and you're like, you go into really good detail.

0:31:22.960 --> 0:31:25.239
<v Speaker 2>I go back and find his episode on the Joe

0:31:25.280 --> 0:31:26.959
<v Speaker 2>Rogan episode, but he'll probably do it on here too.

0:31:28.400 --> 0:31:30.760
<v Speaker 2>You just an awesome job explaining like how you got

0:31:30.800 --> 0:31:33.240
<v Speaker 2>into visualizing and how, like I want to say, you

0:31:33.320 --> 0:31:35.760
<v Speaker 2>lost like three in a row and you started to

0:31:35.840 --> 0:31:39.080
<v Speaker 2>take on the mental training and the visualization aspect before

0:31:39.160 --> 0:31:41.520
<v Speaker 2>that third loss, and then you had to you know,

0:31:41.840 --> 0:31:44.080
<v Speaker 2>continue to believe in and keep going about it. Talk

0:31:44.120 --> 0:31:47.120
<v Speaker 2>about the law of attraction, your visualization, how you got

0:31:47.160 --> 0:31:47.520
<v Speaker 2>into that.

0:31:47.960 --> 0:31:50.040
<v Speaker 1>And how you still used it to this day.

0:31:50.240 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you know, I mean, for me, I think I

0:31:51.640 --> 0:31:54.200
<v Speaker 5>just took my I took my self image, my self worth,

0:31:54.280 --> 0:31:56.040
<v Speaker 5>my confidence. I took it for granted, you know. And

0:31:56.120 --> 0:31:58.440
<v Speaker 5>I think I think, just like anything, if you take

0:31:58.480 --> 0:32:00.120
<v Speaker 5>if you take a certain muscle group for granted, you

0:32:00.160 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 5>don't work on it, it's going to atrophy, it's going

0:32:02.120 --> 0:32:04.120
<v Speaker 5>to it's going to to not be one of your

0:32:04.120 --> 0:32:07.240
<v Speaker 5>strengths anymore. But yeah, so back to that, I lost

0:32:07.240 --> 0:32:08.719
<v Speaker 5>three fights in it. I went six hundred and eighty

0:32:08.720 --> 0:32:10.880
<v Speaker 5>eight days without a win. You know, so your book

0:32:10.880 --> 0:32:12.880
<v Speaker 5>that you're gonna ride day six hundred eight days, man,

0:32:13.080 --> 0:32:14.880
<v Speaker 5>and it's going to be, you know, a catchy title,

0:32:14.920 --> 0:32:17.960
<v Speaker 5>And what is it behind it? I mean essentially, you know,

0:32:18.320 --> 0:32:20.200
<v Speaker 5>I grew up wrestling, and if I lost a wrestling match,

0:32:20.240 --> 0:32:22.240
<v Speaker 5>I knew it was only four days, three days, seven

0:32:22.320 --> 0:32:24.280
<v Speaker 5>days or the same day or same day until I

0:32:24.280 --> 0:32:26.200
<v Speaker 5>can get get it back, get back on the winning track.

0:32:26.280 --> 0:32:28.520
<v Speaker 5>But when you got six months between the fight or

0:32:28.600 --> 0:32:30.000
<v Speaker 5>you just you know, I just got to knock down,

0:32:30.040 --> 0:32:32.520
<v Speaker 5>drag out war. I lost my title. I'm bleeding all

0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:34.040
<v Speaker 5>over the place. I'll show you guys a picture like

0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:34.680
<v Speaker 5>that picture.

0:32:34.720 --> 0:32:35.320
<v Speaker 3>This is awesome.

0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:39.040
<v Speaker 5>Just both eyes swollen. Shutup my lips. Are turned inside out, bleue,

0:32:39.480 --> 0:32:42.040
<v Speaker 5>four or five sets of stitches, probably a concussion, and

0:32:42.280 --> 0:32:45.280
<v Speaker 5>I'm limping back to my hotel room and for some reason,

0:32:45.400 --> 0:32:46.840
<v Speaker 5>that self doubt just came in.

0:32:48.480 --> 0:32:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:32:48.760 --> 0:32:49.640
<v Speaker 3>No, well, and that's what it was.

0:32:49.720 --> 0:32:54.160
<v Speaker 5>I think so so so many times, especially in today's society,

0:32:54.240 --> 0:32:55.800
<v Speaker 5>we hear what other people are saying and we try

0:32:55.840 --> 0:32:58.120
<v Speaker 5>to block it out. But then one small thing happens

0:32:58.120 --> 0:33:01.640
<v Speaker 5>and it triggers that that water all of negativity. Immediately,

0:33:01.680 --> 0:33:03.800
<v Speaker 5>it was Michael, I knew you weren't as good as

0:33:03.840 --> 0:33:05.440
<v Speaker 5>you thought you were. You know, I knew you weren't

0:33:05.440 --> 0:33:06.880
<v Speaker 5>as good as they said you were. I knew they

0:33:06.880 --> 0:33:08.480
<v Speaker 5>were right. I knew the haters were right. I knew

0:33:08.480 --> 0:33:10.600
<v Speaker 5>this was right. I knew you were just a phony.

0:33:10.800 --> 0:33:13.000
<v Speaker 5>You're a small guy from from a small town of Missouri.

0:33:13.040 --> 0:33:14.760
<v Speaker 5>What are you doing, you know, making a bunch of

0:33:14.840 --> 0:33:17.360
<v Speaker 5>money and making a bunch of money and being on

0:33:17.480 --> 0:33:19.680
<v Speaker 5>the bright lights and being this like celebrity fighter guy.

0:33:19.760 --> 0:33:21.840
<v Speaker 5>You're a phone, you know. And that's what happened. And

0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:23.920
<v Speaker 5>then that led to another loss and another loss, and

0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:27.120
<v Speaker 5>I saw sports psychologist and I started just I started

0:33:27.160 --> 0:33:29.680
<v Speaker 5>to just actually look at my mental training like it

0:33:29.880 --> 0:33:32.000
<v Speaker 5>was me going to the to the gym and sparring,

0:33:32.080 --> 0:33:33.800
<v Speaker 5>or me going to the gym and lifting weights. It

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:36.720
<v Speaker 5>was a part of it. And so now, I mean

0:33:36.760 --> 0:33:40.360
<v Speaker 5>the mental game between the years is now pretty much

0:33:40.360 --> 0:33:42.120
<v Speaker 5>half of my training. You know. When I'm down in

0:33:42.160 --> 0:33:44.160
<v Speaker 5>Florida by myself, I mean, I spend you know, an

0:33:44.200 --> 0:33:46.840
<v Speaker 5>hour or two a day, whether it's reading, whether it's

0:33:46.840 --> 0:33:49.520
<v Speaker 5>watching different fights or whatnot, or just sitting there in

0:33:49.640 --> 0:33:52.880
<v Speaker 5>silence visualizing being able to be in the fight before

0:33:52.880 --> 0:33:55.640
<v Speaker 5>I actually get to the fight. And I mean, I

0:33:55.680 --> 0:33:57.840
<v Speaker 5>think that's that's one thing that's one of the greatest

0:33:57.880 --> 0:34:01.160
<v Speaker 5>advices I will ever give to a young athlete or

0:34:01.320 --> 0:34:04.920
<v Speaker 5>just even a young person in general. Don't take your confidence,

0:34:04.960 --> 0:34:07.400
<v Speaker 5>your self image, your self worth, which is your greatest asset.

0:34:08.040 --> 0:34:11.200
<v Speaker 5>Your self image is your greatest asset because a human

0:34:11.280 --> 0:34:14.359
<v Speaker 5>being cannot consistently perform in a manner that is inconsistent

0:34:14.400 --> 0:34:16.400
<v Speaker 5>with the way that he sees himself. So if you

0:34:16.520 --> 0:34:18.840
<v Speaker 5>don't see yourself as a champion, you may be a

0:34:18.960 --> 0:34:21.160
<v Speaker 5>champion for a second. You may be a champion for

0:34:21.200 --> 0:34:23.600
<v Speaker 5>a week, a month, a year, but eventually it's going

0:34:23.640 --> 0:34:25.960
<v Speaker 5>to catch up with you. If you don't truly, truly

0:34:26.000 --> 0:34:30.080
<v Speaker 5>believe it in your heart of hearts. So yeah, for anybody,

0:34:30.960 --> 0:34:34.160
<v Speaker 5>don't take your self image, your self worth, your your

0:34:34.280 --> 0:34:37.520
<v Speaker 5>confidence in yourself for granted, because eventually it will wane

0:34:37.560 --> 0:34:38.440
<v Speaker 5>if you're not working.

0:34:38.280 --> 0:34:40.080
<v Speaker 1>On it, and you might not ever be a champion.

0:34:40.239 --> 0:34:42.520
<v Speaker 2>Like we were on the one with Ben Newman and

0:34:42.600 --> 0:34:44.320
<v Speaker 2>I was kind of talking about standard over feelings, and

0:34:44.320 --> 0:34:46.160
<v Speaker 2>you're right in your standard. Like for me personally, it

0:34:46.239 --> 0:34:48.920
<v Speaker 2>was like, what is will confident as a Pro Bowl linebacker?

0:34:49.000 --> 0:34:51.279
<v Speaker 2>Like I haven't been a Pro Bowl linebacker, but there's

0:34:51.360 --> 0:34:54.640
<v Speaker 2>no there's no reason I should believe anybody. Just because

0:34:54.640 --> 0:34:56.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not one doesn't mean I shouldn't be telling myself

0:34:56.520 --> 0:34:58.440
<v Speaker 2>I am one and be working towards that every day.

0:34:58.440 --> 0:35:01.040
<v Speaker 2>You should be not shooting for the you know, the stars,

0:35:01.080 --> 0:35:03.480
<v Speaker 2>so to speak, all the time in your life and

0:35:04.120 --> 0:35:06.279
<v Speaker 2>not talk to yourself that way because you want something

0:35:06.360 --> 0:35:06.920
<v Speaker 2>so bad and you.

0:35:07.000 --> 0:35:07.920
<v Speaker 1>Might not ever hit it.

0:35:08.000 --> 0:35:11.160
<v Speaker 2>But the moments when say you're not hitting those plateaus

0:35:11.160 --> 0:35:12.919
<v Speaker 2>and you're not hitting those results, you're saying you're still

0:35:12.920 --> 0:35:15.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna use that same process and carry it back over

0:35:15.200 --> 0:35:16.400
<v Speaker 2>to the next year and the next year, and then

0:35:16.440 --> 0:35:18.520
<v Speaker 2>when you're doing something else in life. You carry it

0:35:18.600 --> 0:35:20.000
<v Speaker 2>over to that thing, how are you the best in

0:35:20.080 --> 0:35:21.920
<v Speaker 2>that world? And you might not ever fucking be the

0:35:21.960 --> 0:35:24.480
<v Speaker 2>best in that world, but you should always aspire to

0:35:24.600 --> 0:35:28.520
<v Speaker 2>be something that you are fearful when you're saying it

0:35:28.560 --> 0:35:30.880
<v Speaker 2>to yourself, Like, Okay, like when I'm saying I'm a

0:35:30.920 --> 0:35:31.480
<v Speaker 2>pro bowl.

0:35:32.040 --> 0:35:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Is there a doubt in my mind that I ever

0:35:33.280 --> 0:35:35.560
<v Speaker 1>think I'm gonna be a pro bowler? Fuck? Yeah, there is, dude.

0:35:35.560 --> 0:35:38.120
<v Speaker 2>It's like, will should you really tell yourself that you're

0:35:38.120 --> 0:35:40.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna be a pro bowler when you know you're probably

0:35:40.400 --> 0:35:42.439
<v Speaker 2>not gonna be? But hey that at that moment, don't

0:35:42.480 --> 0:35:44.600
<v Speaker 2>fucking talk to yourself like that? Yeah, Like you just

0:35:44.880 --> 0:35:47.240
<v Speaker 2>you gotta brainwash yourself, man. And I think that's awesome.

0:35:47.440 --> 0:35:49.680
<v Speaker 5>It is true, and it's and it's just like anything,

0:35:49.760 --> 0:35:52.040
<v Speaker 5>you you gotta wear it. You gotta wear it down,

0:35:52.080 --> 0:35:53.919
<v Speaker 5>wear it down, wear it down, and eventually you wear

0:35:54.040 --> 0:35:56.440
<v Speaker 5>down that little guy inside you. I mean, for me,

0:35:56.560 --> 0:35:58.080
<v Speaker 5>it's a it's a small guy from a small town.

0:35:58.160 --> 0:35:59.839
<v Speaker 5>Didn't have hair on my armpits. So I was twenty

0:35:59.880 --> 0:36:01.840
<v Speaker 5>one years old, so I was like like one of

0:36:01.880 --> 0:36:09.880
<v Speaker 5>the but like all of that, you know that that

0:36:10.239 --> 0:36:12.800
<v Speaker 5>was my identity. That's who I was. And you know,

0:36:13.480 --> 0:36:15.080
<v Speaker 5>that little guy is still in there, and I have

0:36:15.160 --> 0:36:17.200
<v Speaker 5>to beat him over the head every single day because

0:36:17.239 --> 0:36:19.319
<v Speaker 5>he creeps up in every single area in my life.

0:36:19.360 --> 0:36:20.800
<v Speaker 5>If I want to be the best fighter in the

0:36:20.840 --> 0:36:23.200
<v Speaker 5>best athlete, and the best father and the best husband,

0:36:23.960 --> 0:36:26.120
<v Speaker 5>that that little guy is going to keep creeping up

0:36:26.120 --> 0:36:27.359
<v Speaker 5>in there and you just have to wear him down,

0:36:27.480 --> 0:36:30.319
<v Speaker 5>you know. So it's it's it's a constant repetition every

0:36:30.360 --> 0:36:33.560
<v Speaker 5>day and waking up and just beating that little dude

0:36:33.600 --> 0:36:34.200
<v Speaker 5>over the head.

0:36:34.120 --> 0:36:36.160
<v Speaker 2>No doubt, because you you've you've been at the top,

0:36:36.440 --> 0:36:38.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean three Pro Bowls, like you guys are at

0:36:38.560 --> 0:36:41.600
<v Speaker 2>the ZOB Like I'm sure it happens still all the time.

0:36:42.040 --> 0:36:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Dude. We were talking the other day about the mad rating.

0:36:45.719 --> 0:36:47.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean, yeah, that doesn't matter.

0:36:47.840 --> 0:36:50.839
<v Speaker 1>That's huge.

0:36:50.920 --> 0:36:53.200
<v Speaker 4>Is the thing that motivates me a lot. Like obviously

0:36:53.280 --> 0:36:54.560
<v Speaker 4>my family helps me a lot. All those things you

0:36:54.680 --> 0:36:56.800
<v Speaker 4>touched on definitely helps me. But a big thing is

0:36:57.239 --> 0:36:59.719
<v Speaker 4>people that doubt you is such a It can be

0:36:59.760 --> 0:37:01.680
<v Speaker 4>such a motivating factor if you if you let it,

0:37:01.760 --> 0:37:03.920
<v Speaker 4>do it in the right way. Like when people say, oh,

0:37:03.920 --> 0:37:06.640
<v Speaker 4>you're you're terrible at this terrible at that, like you

0:37:06.840 --> 0:37:08.359
<v Speaker 4>still have that when you talk about that little guy

0:37:08.400 --> 0:37:10.600
<v Speaker 4>in your head that's still in your head sometimes saying yeah,

0:37:10.640 --> 0:37:12.160
<v Speaker 4>you're not that good of a left tackle, like you

0:37:12.440 --> 0:37:13.400
<v Speaker 4>well Madden rated.

0:37:13.239 --> 0:37:14.880
<v Speaker 3>You this where you're you're that? Like what about these

0:37:14.880 --> 0:37:15.239
<v Speaker 3>and s gears?

0:37:15.239 --> 0:37:17.000
<v Speaker 4>So you got beaten practice, You're probably can get beat

0:37:17.000 --> 0:37:19.200
<v Speaker 4>in the game and all those different things. But as

0:37:19.239 --> 0:37:21.320
<v Speaker 4>soon as someone says a similar thing that I do

0:37:21.440 --> 0:37:24.239
<v Speaker 4>and do in my brain, I'm automatically that you have

0:37:24.360 --> 0:37:26.520
<v Speaker 4>fuck that guy. They have no idea who the fuck

0:37:26.560 --> 0:37:28.560
<v Speaker 4>I am, and I can like I can handle of it.

0:37:28.600 --> 0:37:30.640
<v Speaker 4>And but like that is a huge thing that I

0:37:30.719 --> 0:37:33.120
<v Speaker 4>had to learn as well. And it's it's so important

0:37:33.160 --> 0:37:35.680
<v Speaker 4>because brains and muscles just like anything else. And to

0:37:35.760 --> 0:37:37.480
<v Speaker 4>sit there and I have there's a book I read

0:37:37.480 --> 0:37:39.960
<v Speaker 4>all the time. It's for the Four Agreements anybody. That's

0:37:40.080 --> 0:37:42.160
<v Speaker 4>an amazing book I read every year for the past

0:37:42.200 --> 0:37:45.040
<v Speaker 4>three years, and it just talks about like the four principle,

0:37:45.120 --> 0:37:48.280
<v Speaker 4>four key principles, and one of those principles to be impeccable.

0:37:47.840 --> 0:37:48.200
<v Speaker 3>With your work.

0:37:48.280 --> 0:37:49.880
<v Speaker 4>Like everything you say you're gonna do, just do it

0:37:50.320 --> 0:37:52.680
<v Speaker 4>and and and make sure you stay on top of

0:37:52.719 --> 0:37:55.239
<v Speaker 4>those things, and the more you live a life that

0:37:56.280 --> 0:37:58.200
<v Speaker 4>if you it's very simple, if you just live a

0:37:58.239 --> 0:38:00.080
<v Speaker 4>life that you're not a shiite like you know, and

0:38:00.120 --> 0:38:01.919
<v Speaker 4>people wouldn't be ashamed of you, even nothing to worry about.

0:38:02.160 --> 0:38:04.600
<v Speaker 4>I don't have anxiety because I live my life exactly

0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:06.279
<v Speaker 4>how I want to live my life, and I know

0:38:06.360 --> 0:38:08.160
<v Speaker 4>exactly way I'm I'm the same person when I'm here

0:38:08.480 --> 0:38:10.040
<v Speaker 4>as when I'm in the football field as when I

0:38:10.160 --> 0:38:11.640
<v Speaker 4>go home. And it can be a lot for some

0:38:11.680 --> 0:38:12.839
<v Speaker 4>people to sometimes as I'm.

0:38:12.719 --> 0:38:13.640
<v Speaker 3>A high energy dude.

0:38:14.080 --> 0:38:16.640
<v Speaker 4>But it's like you have to put the investment into

0:38:16.680 --> 0:38:19.440
<v Speaker 4>first love yourself. That's it's the hardest thing to do

0:38:19.520 --> 0:38:21.600
<v Speaker 4>and the easiest thing to say, because if I ask

0:38:21.680 --> 0:38:23.239
<v Speaker 4>you who your top five favorite people in this world,

0:38:23.280 --> 0:38:25.160
<v Speaker 4>the first person you should start with is always well, me,

0:38:25.719 --> 0:38:27.560
<v Speaker 4>and then my wife, and then my daughter, and then

0:38:27.760 --> 0:38:29.279
<v Speaker 4>but my best friend Nick, and then you know, and

0:38:29.360 --> 0:38:36.400
<v Speaker 4>then well, but it's those, it's it's those, it's those

0:38:36.480 --> 0:38:38.360
<v Speaker 4>key principles that you have to keep talking to yourself.

0:38:38.400 --> 0:38:41.360
<v Speaker 4>And anytime it's funny to me, I watch people that

0:38:41.400 --> 0:38:45.040
<v Speaker 4>are like that ship on themselves for humor, and it's like,

0:38:45.200 --> 0:38:48.000
<v Speaker 4>that's good and I think that's that's not good. It's hilarious.

0:38:48.440 --> 0:38:50.120
<v Speaker 4>But at the same time, if you keep saying something,

0:38:50.160 --> 0:38:52.160
<v Speaker 4>whether it's a joke or others, that's the old saying

0:38:52.280 --> 0:38:53.319
<v Speaker 4>is a truth into every joke.

0:38:53.760 --> 0:38:57.320
<v Speaker 3>And so it's okay to do that sometimes.

0:38:57.400 --> 0:38:59.399
<v Speaker 4>But it's more important than anything else, is the one

0:38:59.480 --> 0:39:02.839
<v Speaker 4>love yourself, read constantly, and just do the right thing.

0:39:03.160 --> 0:39:05.680
<v Speaker 4>Those are I mean, people talk about religion all the time,

0:39:05.960 --> 0:39:08.319
<v Speaker 4>like you got like you know, if you go look

0:39:08.320 --> 0:39:11.920
<v Speaker 4>at any different religion, whether it's Christian and Catholicism, you know, Buddhists,

0:39:12.080 --> 0:39:14.640
<v Speaker 4>all that different stuff. The all the main principles is

0:39:14.719 --> 0:39:16.640
<v Speaker 4>just be cool to people, be nice to people, treat

0:39:16.640 --> 0:39:18.160
<v Speaker 4>people the way you want to be treated. Don't like

0:39:18.280 --> 0:39:20.560
<v Speaker 4>kill people. That's probably a big one. Take care of

0:39:20.600 --> 0:39:22.879
<v Speaker 4>your body, you know those things like you only want

0:39:22.920 --> 0:39:24.680
<v Speaker 4>to put things in your body that are going to

0:39:24.719 --> 0:39:26.800
<v Speaker 4>help you. That's why I don't go to McDonald's or Rby's.

0:39:26.800 --> 0:39:27.040
<v Speaker 3>I can't.

0:39:27.040 --> 0:39:28.640
<v Speaker 4>I can't eat that shit even when I'm done playing.

0:39:29.120 --> 0:39:31.720
<v Speaker 4>It's just not something you want to do. It's because

0:39:31.760 --> 0:39:33.919
<v Speaker 4>that those are things that you put in your body

0:39:33.960 --> 0:39:36.000
<v Speaker 4>and it's gonna it's gonna fuck with your brain as well.

0:39:36.520 --> 0:39:38.920
<v Speaker 4>And it's still it's a crazy vicious circle that we,

0:39:39.480 --> 0:39:43.000
<v Speaker 4>especially in America, get in because you know, America is

0:39:43.080 --> 0:39:45.120
<v Speaker 4>such a such a bubble, and if you take ten

0:39:45.160 --> 0:39:47.279
<v Speaker 4>steps outside of here. My wife's from Canada, I go

0:39:47.360 --> 0:39:49.560
<v Speaker 4>up there, it's a completely different world. Things are slower,

0:39:49.840 --> 0:39:51.759
<v Speaker 4>there's no there's a bunch of not a bunch of shit,

0:39:51.800 --> 0:39:53.600
<v Speaker 4>and even the fast food there because it's not allowed.

0:39:54.080 --> 0:39:56.040
<v Speaker 4>You know, you go down to South America, even Europe,

0:39:56.080 --> 0:39:58.360
<v Speaker 4>like it's just a different world. But America lives in

0:39:58.400 --> 0:40:01.200
<v Speaker 4>this crazy bubble that we think your shit doesn't stink,

0:40:01.880 --> 0:40:04.560
<v Speaker 4>you're perfect. Everyone here is perfect and it's not. But

0:40:04.680 --> 0:40:09.960
<v Speaker 4>it's like people are so masked by whether it's.

0:40:09.840 --> 0:40:12.920
<v Speaker 3>Social media or you know, I'm gonna I'm an American

0:40:13.000 --> 0:40:15.120
<v Speaker 3>and this, that and the other. It's it's really important

0:40:15.160 --> 0:40:16.360
<v Speaker 3>to like, you got to look inward.

0:40:16.800 --> 0:40:19.120
<v Speaker 4>And so anytime I like, he goes with life too,

0:40:19.440 --> 0:40:21.760
<v Speaker 4>not just with sports, but if I have an issue

0:40:21.760 --> 0:40:24.840
<v Speaker 4>with somebody, you know, if I'm in a bad place mentally,

0:40:24.960 --> 0:40:27.239
<v Speaker 4>I'll go off on that person. But then I'll take

0:40:27.239 --> 0:40:29.160
<v Speaker 4>a couple of minutes fifteen twenty minutes later, I'm sitting

0:40:29.160 --> 0:40:30.680
<v Speaker 4>there and I'm like, well, fuck, I had nothing to

0:40:30.719 --> 0:40:33.560
<v Speaker 4>do with him, Like it's all it's always yourself, yeah,

0:40:33.600 --> 0:40:36.320
<v Speaker 4>because everything is controllable, you know, and it's just it

0:40:36.760 --> 0:40:38.759
<v Speaker 4>becomes a vicious circle and I ram away too much.

0:40:38.880 --> 0:40:41.200
<v Speaker 2>That well, I mean you're you're saying it all and

0:40:41.360 --> 0:40:45.080
<v Speaker 2>you you you were saying it too. It's sitting with yourself,

0:40:45.200 --> 0:40:47.520
<v Speaker 2>learning about yourself and also who you surround yourself with

0:40:47.560 --> 0:40:48.439
<v Speaker 2>and what you surround yourself.

0:40:48.440 --> 0:40:49.680
<v Speaker 3>That's a big one. That's a really big one.

0:40:49.719 --> 0:40:51.839
<v Speaker 2>Like sometimes like I'll be around Taylor and the dude

0:40:52.200 --> 0:40:54.040
<v Speaker 2>he's so intentional on all the things he does.

0:40:54.120 --> 0:40:54.959
<v Speaker 1>Like he was speaking real.

0:40:54.920 --> 0:40:58.960
<v Speaker 4>Quick, I hat a tink it always yeah, so to

0:40:59.080 --> 0:41:00.719
<v Speaker 4>so a train and wouldn't be busting with the boys

0:41:00.760 --> 0:41:02.200
<v Speaker 4>podcast that all train go on nice.

0:41:02.560 --> 0:41:06.120
<v Speaker 2>So around Taylor and he's so intentional with stuff sometimes

0:41:06.200 --> 0:41:08.840
<v Speaker 2>to where you know, he'll talk about I want to

0:41:08.840 --> 0:41:10.879
<v Speaker 2>be the greatest left tackle to ever play, and I'll

0:41:10.880 --> 0:41:14.520
<v Speaker 2>sit there, I'm like it'll kind of like reaffirm me

0:41:14.680 --> 0:41:17.600
<v Speaker 2>that I should be thinking in ways that are remind

0:41:17.640 --> 0:41:20.400
<v Speaker 2>me to think that way again or continue to repeat,

0:41:20.480 --> 0:41:23.279
<v Speaker 2>like don't let this little guy say something, or let

0:41:23.600 --> 0:41:25.640
<v Speaker 2>the good one on your shoulder on the other shoulder,

0:41:25.719 --> 0:41:27.399
<v Speaker 2>talk to you that way that Taylor's out here talking

0:41:27.480 --> 0:41:29.400
<v Speaker 2>and being confident all the time, because this dude is

0:41:29.640 --> 0:41:33.440
<v Speaker 2>he's so confident to you know, he's very confident to where.

0:41:33.560 --> 0:41:34.160
<v Speaker 1>It rubs off.

0:41:34.239 --> 0:41:39.160
<v Speaker 2>But you rub you're around, you got to have a friend.

0:41:39.239 --> 0:41:40.799
<v Speaker 5>You have to have a friend, like you have to.

0:41:41.000 --> 0:41:43.080
<v Speaker 2>Like and he brings up books like four Agreements. He

0:41:43.160 --> 0:41:45.320
<v Speaker 2>put me on that I think fourth four Agreements and

0:41:45.360 --> 0:41:47.360
<v Speaker 2>fifth Agreement. I forget who write them, but we should.

0:41:47.600 --> 0:41:50.160
<v Speaker 2>We should figure out who wrote those books. But those

0:41:50.200 --> 0:41:52.320
<v Speaker 2>are those are awesome, But it is it's who you

0:41:52.440 --> 0:41:55.000
<v Speaker 2>surround yourself with because again, you're gonna be in those

0:41:55.040 --> 0:41:56.480
<v Speaker 2>times or you're in the gym and you're just talking

0:41:56.520 --> 0:41:58.320
<v Speaker 2>to yourself, like you'll go from the best in the

0:41:58.400 --> 0:42:00.960
<v Speaker 2>world to like, maybe I'm losing a step.

0:42:02.920 --> 0:42:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and now you know, people like.

0:42:06.600 --> 0:42:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Peak like all that. Yeah, and people ask that, hey,

0:42:09.000 --> 0:42:09.719
<v Speaker 3>are you still in shape?

0:42:09.760 --> 0:42:10.359
<v Speaker 1>Like to play ball?

0:42:10.680 --> 0:42:12.760
<v Speaker 2>And I'm just thinking to myself, Yeah, I'm in fucking

0:42:12.880 --> 0:42:15.520
<v Speaker 2>phenomenal shape. And I don't know if I that's the

0:42:15.560 --> 0:42:17.640
<v Speaker 2>answer they're wanting to hear. But I feel that way

0:42:17.680 --> 0:42:19.880
<v Speaker 2>even though I'm fucking you know, twenty nine going on

0:42:20.040 --> 0:42:22.920
<v Speaker 2>thirty and have been at this peak in my career,

0:42:22.960 --> 0:42:25.719
<v Speaker 2>but I know, like you can find another peak given

0:42:25.760 --> 0:42:26.440
<v Speaker 2>the opportunity.

0:42:26.680 --> 0:42:29.279
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well, and it all goes back to reputation, right

0:42:29.320 --> 0:42:32.960
<v Speaker 5>I What I realized is the most important thing to

0:42:33.000 --> 0:42:36.280
<v Speaker 5>me in my entire life was my reputation. Not exactly

0:42:36.360 --> 0:42:40.000
<v Speaker 5>what people thought of me, but knowing that people looking

0:42:40.040 --> 0:42:42.239
<v Speaker 5>at me and say, man, that guy's reliable, that guy's

0:42:42.280 --> 0:42:43.800
<v Speaker 5>a good dude. He does he tries to do the

0:42:43.880 --> 0:42:45.680
<v Speaker 5>right things. He loves his family, he loves this, he

0:42:45.760 --> 0:42:48.440
<v Speaker 5>loves that. And then more the more I realize, the

0:42:48.520 --> 0:42:51.200
<v Speaker 5>older I get, the more I realize the greatest reputation

0:42:51.760 --> 0:42:53.200
<v Speaker 5>is the one that I have with myself.

0:42:53.840 --> 0:42:54.200
<v Speaker 1>You're right.

0:42:54.400 --> 0:42:56.120
<v Speaker 5>So, just like what you were talking about, whether it

0:42:56.239 --> 0:42:58.320
<v Speaker 5>be making the wrong decisions with what you're eating or

0:42:58.360 --> 0:43:00.120
<v Speaker 5>making the wrong decisions with who you're surrounding yourself with,

0:43:00.719 --> 0:43:02.920
<v Speaker 5>when you're doing those things that are kind of self

0:43:03.640 --> 0:43:07.080
<v Speaker 5>they're self loathing without even really feeling like without without

0:43:07.080 --> 0:43:09.040
<v Speaker 5>even really knowing it. You're doing things that you know

0:43:09.080 --> 0:43:12.279
<v Speaker 5>you're not supposed to be doing right whenever you and

0:43:12.360 --> 0:43:13.640
<v Speaker 5>it goes back to being a good person when you

0:43:13.760 --> 0:43:15.880
<v Speaker 5>when you're when you do something that is outside of

0:43:16.480 --> 0:43:21.959
<v Speaker 5>having good character. Whether you win or lose or gain

0:43:22.080 --> 0:43:25.440
<v Speaker 5>from that experience, you're losing no matter what, because because

0:43:25.480 --> 0:43:29.399
<v Speaker 5>you're actually doing something opposite of what the human soul

0:43:29.560 --> 0:43:31.400
<v Speaker 5>was created to do. I think we were you know,

0:43:31.800 --> 0:43:34.920
<v Speaker 5>the age ol debate of our humans inherently evil or

0:43:34.960 --> 0:43:37.880
<v Speaker 5>they inherently good. So it can be debated, right, but

0:43:37.920 --> 0:43:40.719
<v Speaker 5>I think I think we're all inherently good and we

0:43:40.920 --> 0:43:44.719
<v Speaker 5>just get corrupted by this outside world, all people that

0:43:44.840 --> 0:43:47.160
<v Speaker 5>we surround ourselves with. And that's that's always been the

0:43:47.200 --> 0:43:49.080
<v Speaker 5>most important thing to me, who I surround myself with,

0:43:49.200 --> 0:43:52.960
<v Speaker 5>and having trying to have a ridiculously almost annoyingly confident

0:43:53.040 --> 0:43:55.239
<v Speaker 5>friend or the guy that you look at you're like,

0:43:55.960 --> 0:43:57.320
<v Speaker 5>did I wish I had a quarter of that?

0:43:57.440 --> 0:43:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Right?

0:43:57.680 --> 0:43:59.320
<v Speaker 5>And like Ben Askern was that for me?

0:43:59.440 --> 0:43:59.600
<v Speaker 1>Man?

0:43:59.640 --> 0:44:02.680
<v Speaker 5>I mean the dude was undefeated until you know, just

0:44:02.719 --> 0:44:04.480
<v Speaker 5>a couple of weeks ago for a reason. I mean,

0:44:04.560 --> 0:44:07.520
<v Speaker 5>the dude and he was actually one of the most

0:44:07.640 --> 0:44:11.000
<v Speaker 5>untalented men I've ever been around in my entire life.

0:44:11.040 --> 0:44:17.759
<v Speaker 5>Like I came in as a freshman, he was no no,

0:44:17.880 --> 0:44:19.560
<v Speaker 5>what I'm saying physically, I mean, like, do you look

0:44:19.600 --> 0:44:21.200
<v Speaker 5>at the dude, and he's actually making a gimmick out

0:44:21.200 --> 0:44:22.839
<v Speaker 5>of it. He's like, he talks about his dad, bod

0:44:22.920 --> 0:44:24.200
<v Speaker 5>and that kind of stuff. He does not look like

0:44:24.239 --> 0:44:27.800
<v Speaker 5>a professional athlete competing at the highest level, yet between

0:44:27.840 --> 0:44:30.120
<v Speaker 5>his ears, I've never met a more confident person. You

0:44:30.239 --> 0:44:32.000
<v Speaker 5>have to have a person, a couple of those people

0:44:32.000 --> 0:44:33.960
<v Speaker 5>around you, because they're just going to level you up,

0:44:34.080 --> 0:44:34.600
<v Speaker 5>you know, no.

0:44:34.760 --> 0:44:36.560
<v Speaker 2>Doubt before we get into the next level. Let's go,

0:44:36.800 --> 0:44:39.680
<v Speaker 2>let's read you. But let's read these ads. Now we'd

0:44:39.719 --> 0:44:42.600
<v Speaker 2>be quiet, and now we're going back and we're back. Yeah, yeah,

0:44:42.640 --> 0:44:44.320
<v Speaker 2>because we never know. We backlog everything.

0:44:46.280 --> 0:44:51.120
<v Speaker 4>That money somehow bro like that. Speaking of banks, Let'm

0:44:51.160 --> 0:45:02.799

<v Speaker 4>I'm reading a book right now called Ego is the

0:45:31.680 --> 0:45:34.479
<v Speaker 4>Enemy because, like myself, I don't know how much George

<v Speaker 4>football or even the Tennessee Tians or anything like that,

0:45:36.600 --> 0:45:37.319
<v Speaker 4>but it doesn't really matter.

0:45:37.400 --> 0:45:38.640
<v Speaker 2>He was supposed to going to a game last year.

0:45:38.640 --> 0:45:40.839

<v Speaker 5>Yes, exactly.

0:46:08.680 --> 0:46:12.440
<v Speaker 3>What's all about building people up around with you?

<v Speaker 4>ego can really like debilitate you in life.

0:46:21.160 --> 0:46:22.520
<v Speaker 3>And uh, it's kind of taught.

0:46:22.360 --> 0:46:24.279
<v Speaker 4>Me a lot because I've always been very like vocal

0:46:24.360 --> 0:46:26.440
<v Speaker 4>on the field, very loud, like I'm a big chirper

0:46:26.520 --> 0:46:28.960

<v Speaker 4>very ego a lot, And I'm still going to do

<v Speaker 2>guys can find it.

<v Speaker 1>There you go.

0:47:22.360 --> 0:47:25.160
<v Speaker 3>What you so you watch, guys like you watch? Was

0:47:25.280 --> 0:47:27.640
<v Speaker 3>Connor I first UFC fight ever went to.

0:47:28.040 --> 0:47:30.239
<v Speaker 4>For our first fight, I will say I ever went

0:47:30.280 --> 0:47:33.160
<v Speaker 4>to was Connor McGregor versus ideas the first one. Oh, dude,

0:47:33.200 --> 0:47:36.680
<v Speaker 4>I was the guy Richie and Coda in Vegas and

0:47:37.160 --> 0:47:40.160
<v Speaker 4>we went in there. It was me, my wife who

0:47:40.239 --> 0:47:41.840
<v Speaker 4>was my girlfriend at the time. We just met in

0:47:41.960 --> 0:47:44.120
<v Speaker 4>Richie and he took us this fight and he was like,

0:47:44.120 --> 0:47:45.560
<v Speaker 4>you got to look up this conn McGregor guy. He's

0:47:45.600 --> 0:47:47.719
<v Speaker 4>in the same So I started watching him and he

0:47:47.840 --> 0:47:50.920
<v Speaker 4>talks so much shit, so much he's getting it, just

0:47:50.960 --> 0:47:53.359
<v Speaker 4>getting after its in dude's heads, knocking dudes out, going

0:47:53.440 --> 0:47:55.719
<v Speaker 4>up wey classes, knocking dudes out, like it's just just

0:47:55.880 --> 0:47:59.480
<v Speaker 4>killing people. And I watched an Adist fight. He lost

0:47:59.520 --> 0:48:01.560
<v Speaker 4>an Adis fight. A year later, he fights in eight

0:48:01.600 --> 0:48:05.239
<v Speaker 4>d's again in August and wins. It was like a

0:48:05.360 --> 0:48:08.239
<v Speaker 4>split decision right at the end, and then he goes.

0:48:08.560 --> 0:48:12.160
<v Speaker 4>He just keeps talking shit, and he he literally talks

0:48:12.200 --> 0:48:17.719
<v Speaker 4>himself into this boxing match against Mayweather and fights him,

0:48:17.840 --> 0:48:19.840
<v Speaker 4>doesn't stand a chance, but actually does a good job.

0:48:19.719 --> 0:48:23.040
<v Speaker 3>Boxing for the first few rounds. Loses that.

0:48:23.920 --> 0:48:27.360
<v Speaker 4>A year and a half later fights could be loses that,

0:48:27.480 --> 0:48:30.279
<v Speaker 4>and it's like you start to look at him and

0:48:30.360 --> 0:48:33.160
<v Speaker 4>the way he operates, and he literally used his mouth

0:48:33.200 --> 0:48:36.000
<v Speaker 4>as a business like he talked himself into every single

0:48:36.040 --> 0:48:38.000
<v Speaker 4>one of those things. And now he's got a whisky

0:48:38.160 --> 0:48:39.200
<v Speaker 4>that I haven't tried yet.

0:48:39.239 --> 0:48:42.960
<v Speaker 3>I've heard it's it's good. Okay. So I have two.

0:48:42.680 --> 0:48:45.320
<v Speaker 4>Opinions now, one DC one of when one not so

0:48:46.200 --> 0:48:49.759
<v Speaker 4>and he's he's like killing it. His whiskey is all

0:48:49.840 --> 0:48:50.359
<v Speaker 4>over the place.

0:48:50.440 --> 0:48:51.400
<v Speaker 3>It's it's unbelievable.

0:48:51.960 --> 0:48:54.040
<v Speaker 4>So like, do you ever did you ever look at

0:48:54.160 --> 0:48:57.120
<v Speaker 4>him or look at fighters like him and think to yourself, Hey,

0:48:57.200 --> 0:48:59.360
<v Speaker 4>that might not be me. But from my business standpoint,

0:48:59.440 --> 0:49:01.600
<v Speaker 4>I can you lay a lot of these things to

0:49:01.719 --> 0:49:03.759
<v Speaker 4>either get clicks, my name, get out there more, get

0:49:03.800 --> 0:49:06.880
<v Speaker 4>a big fight, maybe get a Bellator versus UFC championship

0:49:06.920 --> 0:49:07.719
<v Speaker 4>fight or something like that.

0:49:07.880 --> 0:49:10.000
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I mean there's that that part of the business.

0:49:10.080 --> 0:49:12.040
<v Speaker 5>And and the guy who kind of originated with Chill

0:49:12.120 --> 0:49:16.359
<v Speaker 5>Soning back in the day, and the originator of at least,

0:49:16.400 --> 0:49:18.920
<v Speaker 5>you know, talking themselves into fights that they shouldn't have

0:49:18.960 --> 0:49:21.880
<v Speaker 5>been in, and Connor did. Connor's now done the best

0:49:21.960 --> 0:49:24.239
<v Speaker 5>at it as far as lucrative, lucrative whise making as

0:49:24.280 --> 0:49:26.160
<v Speaker 5>much money as possible and then spending off in the brands.

0:49:26.200 --> 0:49:30.520
<v Speaker 5>But I think I have But I also know it's hard.

0:49:30.840 --> 0:49:33.239
<v Speaker 5>It's hard when the message that you want to put

0:49:33.239 --> 0:49:36.680
<v Speaker 5>out there is the opposite of that, you know, and

0:49:37.000 --> 0:49:39.920
<v Speaker 5>that's that's where my cognitive dissonance came in, as far

0:49:40.040 --> 0:49:44.800
<v Speaker 5>as not my values actually not lining up with the

0:49:44.920 --> 0:49:47.000
<v Speaker 5>situation at hand. And I've done it a little bit.

0:49:47.040 --> 0:49:48.560
<v Speaker 5>I've talked a little bit of trash, and it just

0:49:48.880 --> 0:49:50.560
<v Speaker 5>it doesn't it doesn't come natural to me. It's not

0:49:50.600 --> 0:49:53.000
<v Speaker 5>who I am. I'd rather, you know, I'd rather do.

0:49:53.400 --> 0:49:58.160
<v Speaker 5>I'd rather be more positive or more inspirational than you know,

0:49:58.680 --> 0:50:00.560
<v Speaker 5>kind of coming at people. And there's been other guys

0:50:00.560 --> 0:50:02.480
<v Speaker 5>like a guy like Randy Gatour Randy gatur Will is

0:50:02.800 --> 0:50:04.759
<v Speaker 5>a Hall of Famer and he'll be known as one

0:50:04.760 --> 0:50:06.520
<v Speaker 5>of the greatest fighters of all time, fought into his

0:50:06.600 --> 0:50:09.719
<v Speaker 5>forties and he never talked trash. Gsp never talked trash.

0:50:09.760 --> 0:50:11.960
<v Speaker 5>So there's the other guys who have who have done

0:50:12.160 --> 0:50:14.920
<v Speaker 5>just as well and arguably could have made more money

0:50:15.280 --> 0:50:19.040
<v Speaker 5>if it was right now in twenty nineteen than Connor did.

0:50:19.120 --> 0:50:22.120
<v Speaker 5>But Connor also had Connor got taken care of because

0:50:22.120 --> 0:50:23.880
<v Speaker 5>he had a whole country behind him. You know. I

0:50:24.040 --> 0:50:26.799
<v Speaker 5>was just I was just at a party last night

0:50:26.840 --> 0:50:29.000
<v Speaker 5>with a guy who DJs for Jason Alden. So he

0:50:29.440 --> 0:50:32.040
<v Speaker 5>he does the DJ thing right before Jason Alden goes out,

0:50:32.200 --> 0:50:34.800
<v Speaker 5>and we were talking about how he's in Vegas almost

0:50:34.840 --> 0:50:37.160
<v Speaker 5>every weekend. He was there for two of the Connor fights,

0:50:37.200 --> 0:50:40.040
<v Speaker 5>and the whole you probably noticed, the whole city turns

0:50:40.080 --> 0:50:42.480
<v Speaker 5>out a little Ireland, right, you know, And they got

0:50:42.520 --> 0:50:47.000
<v Speaker 5>the Tricolor flags all over everywhere. These people in Ireland,

0:50:47.040 --> 0:50:49.480
<v Speaker 5>who probably didn't have much money, saved up for an

0:50:49.640 --> 0:50:52.800
<v Speaker 5>entire year to get those those flights came over staying

0:50:52.800 --> 0:50:55.640
<v Speaker 5>in the hostels like trying to like, you know, just

0:50:55.760 --> 0:50:59.080
<v Speaker 5>to watch their their sportsman, you know. So he it

0:50:59.239 --> 0:51:02.920
<v Speaker 5>was a perfect storm of everything. Everything he was doing,

0:51:02.960 --> 0:51:04.520
<v Speaker 5>everything he was saying, and he was winning.

0:51:04.880 --> 0:51:05.040
<v Speaker 3>You know.

0:51:05.760 --> 0:51:08.439
<v Speaker 5>I always said, he's not as good as he thinks

0:51:08.480 --> 0:51:10.800
<v Speaker 5>he is, but he's better than other people think he is.

0:51:11.000 --> 0:51:12.440
<v Speaker 5>I think a lot of us said, oh, he's not

0:51:12.480 --> 0:51:14.080
<v Speaker 5>that good, but he's better than we thought he was.

0:51:14.520 --> 0:51:16.320
<v Speaker 5>But he's not quite as good as he thinks he is.

0:51:17.440 --> 0:51:20.439
<v Speaker 5>But that mental game is no joke, man, that mental

0:51:20.480 --> 0:51:22.480
<v Speaker 5>game he did have people broken before they even stepped

0:51:22.480 --> 0:51:23.120
<v Speaker 5>into the cage of them.

0:51:23.239 --> 0:51:26.319
<v Speaker 4>So you don't you don't think he's like the best,

0:51:26.400 --> 0:51:27.719
<v Speaker 4>like one of the best ever to do it, like

0:51:27.760 --> 0:51:29.879
<v Speaker 4>do you think if he, if he took the time,

0:51:30.160 --> 0:51:35.160
<v Speaker 4>didn't just from a talent perspective, right South Paul, everything

0:51:35.200 --> 0:51:37.839
<v Speaker 4>I hear is this guy's got this unique skill set,

0:51:37.880 --> 0:51:39.880
<v Speaker 4>the way he moves his body and all that. Do

0:51:39.960 --> 0:51:42.640
<v Speaker 4>you think if he just focused on the nuts and

0:51:42.719 --> 0:51:48.440
<v Speaker 4>bolt of being a UFC fighter, MMA fighter, then branding

0:51:48.520 --> 0:51:50.520
<v Speaker 4>and focusing on other stuff, do you think it could

0:51:50.520 --> 0:51:52.239
<v Speaker 4>have gone a different way where you we be have

0:51:52.280 --> 0:51:52.960
<v Speaker 4>a different conversation.

0:51:53.000 --> 0:51:54.600
<v Speaker 3>If you're saying, yeah, maybe he is one of the

0:51:54.680 --> 0:51:55.359
<v Speaker 3>best of all time.

0:51:55.840 --> 0:51:57.800
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, Well, I mean I think that's I think I

0:51:57.880 --> 0:51:59.600
<v Speaker 5>think any of us can do that, though I mean

0:52:00.080 --> 0:52:00.960
<v Speaker 5>any of us. I mean you have to have a

0:52:01.000 --> 0:52:04.440
<v Speaker 5>certain level of skill level, level of talent, level of ability.

0:52:05.239 --> 0:52:07.440
<v Speaker 5>But I mean him from his his physical attributes. Yes,

0:52:07.480 --> 0:52:09.400
<v Speaker 5>he has a long, tall southpaw. For the for the

0:52:09.960 --> 0:52:11.680
<v Speaker 5>for the weight class, the one fifty five, he was

0:52:11.680 --> 0:52:13.000
<v Speaker 5>at one forty five before and he's got up to

0:52:13.080 --> 0:52:15.360
<v Speaker 5>one seventy, and he went up to one seventy by

0:52:15.400 --> 0:52:17.719
<v Speaker 5>the way, and fought another one fifty five or so.

0:52:17.800 --> 0:52:19.440
<v Speaker 5>They went up a weight class, but they were both

0:52:19.480 --> 0:52:22.600
<v Speaker 5>one fifty five or so. They essentially fought the same guy. Yeah,

0:52:22.640 --> 0:52:25.160
<v Speaker 5>he would have fought at one fifty five, so because

0:52:25.160 --> 0:52:26.319
<v Speaker 5>that was a big thing, and they did a great

0:52:26.400 --> 0:52:28.520
<v Speaker 5>job market at it, you know, like going up a

0:52:28.520 --> 0:52:30.120
<v Speaker 5>weight class, you know, and all that kind of stuff.

0:52:30.360 --> 0:52:33.120
<v Speaker 5>But I mean what I will say is he has

0:52:33.200 --> 0:52:35.880
<v Speaker 5>it because really, like we just talked about, ninety percent

0:52:36.000 --> 0:52:38.320
<v Speaker 5>of being the greatest in the world is between the ears,

0:52:38.400 --> 0:52:40.360
<v Speaker 5>you know. I mean, when it comes to physical attributes,

0:52:40.400 --> 0:52:42.279
<v Speaker 5>he's got enough of it. When it comes to the power,

0:52:42.320 --> 0:52:44.680
<v Speaker 5>he's definitely got enough of that. And when it comes

0:52:44.719 --> 0:52:48.200
<v Speaker 5>to the confidence, he's definitely got that in droves. I

0:52:48.320 --> 0:52:50.600
<v Speaker 5>think he just he ran into kabeb Kabebe has never

0:52:50.719 --> 0:52:52.000
<v Speaker 5>lost could be.

0:52:52.800 --> 0:52:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:52:53.040 --> 0:52:59.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's like and he literally was born in Chernobyl.

0:53:00.040 --> 0:53:09.279
<v Speaker 3>You knew that. No, in the radio he was he's

0:53:09.320 --> 0:53:09.800
<v Speaker 3>all fucked.

0:53:10.160 --> 0:53:12.200
<v Speaker 5>He's uh yeah, I mean he's he's as close to

0:53:12.280 --> 0:53:14.080
<v Speaker 5>unstoppable as as you have seen.

0:53:14.160 --> 0:53:16.239
<v Speaker 3>And we will make a couple unstoppable. He's just so

0:53:16.440 --> 0:53:16.800
<v Speaker 3>locked in.

0:53:17.080 --> 0:53:20.200
<v Speaker 5>Well, he just it's there's a there's a certain rule

0:53:20.280 --> 0:53:22.480
<v Speaker 5>set that we play by, and it's striking and it's

0:53:22.480 --> 0:53:24.680
<v Speaker 5>scrappling and and there's a mixture of everything, and there's

0:53:24.680 --> 0:53:27.000
<v Speaker 5>a there's a time clock and and and those a

0:53:27.040 --> 0:53:28.799
<v Speaker 5>lot of amount of times. He doesn't finish a lot

0:53:28.840 --> 0:53:31.680
<v Speaker 5>of guys. He really finishes very few of his fights.

0:53:31.719 --> 0:53:33.520
<v Speaker 5>But he's able to pick guys up, put him down,

0:53:33.640 --> 0:53:35.719
<v Speaker 5>be on top of him, hold a wrist, and just

0:53:35.800 --> 0:53:38.680
<v Speaker 5>punch him for for twenty twenty five minutes, fifteen minutes,

0:53:40.480 --> 0:53:42.080
<v Speaker 5>for as long as he wants to. He's probably gonna

0:53:42.080 --> 0:53:43.760
<v Speaker 5>do the same thing to Dustin Pooria here in September

0:53:43.760 --> 0:53:45.840
<v Speaker 5>and Abu Dhabi he did it. And his you know,

0:53:45.960 --> 0:53:48.560
<v Speaker 5>his last his last fight to Connor, the fight before

0:53:48.920 --> 0:53:51.279
<v Speaker 5>the fight before that. You know, he we saw some

0:53:51.400 --> 0:53:53.360
<v Speaker 5>chinks in his armor against Ala Aquinta, but that was

0:53:53.360 --> 0:53:55.680
<v Speaker 5>a crazy fight where he got switched the night before,

0:53:55.719 --> 0:53:58.960
<v Speaker 5>so I think he wasn't mentally there. But the sport,

0:53:59.120 --> 0:54:01.239
<v Speaker 5>it's just funny because when you really break the sport

0:54:01.320 --> 0:54:03.279
<v Speaker 5>down into just the nuts and bolts of it, it's

0:54:03.360 --> 0:54:06.560
<v Speaker 5>it's a very it's a very simplistic sport. And if

0:54:06.560 --> 0:54:09.080
<v Speaker 5>you can become really good at a certain skill set

0:54:09.160 --> 0:54:11.759
<v Speaker 5>that guys that even when guys prepare for it, they

0:54:11.800 --> 0:54:14.400
<v Speaker 5>can't stop it, You're you're going to be successful. And

0:54:14.560 --> 0:54:18.160
<v Speaker 5>that's what he's done, you know, barring barring any knockouts

0:54:18.280 --> 0:54:21.040
<v Speaker 5>or you know, like me, the flash, knockout, knock down,

0:54:21.080 --> 0:54:23.680
<v Speaker 5>whatever you want to call it. That kind of stuff happens,

0:54:23.760 --> 0:54:26.920
<v Speaker 5>or crazy split decisions where the refs, you know, the

0:54:27.040 --> 0:54:29.040
<v Speaker 5>refs called the fight the other way. So it's just

0:54:29.120 --> 0:54:31.320
<v Speaker 5>a crazy sport he's for him to go in the

0:54:31.360 --> 0:54:33.160
<v Speaker 5>feed it for as long as he has is nothing

0:54:33.239 --> 0:54:35.719
<v Speaker 5>short of amazing. So I would never take anything away

0:54:35.719 --> 0:54:38.759
<v Speaker 5>from him. He's just very good at grappling, wrestling and

0:54:39.040 --> 0:54:39.640
<v Speaker 5>punch of people.

0:54:39.840 --> 0:54:43.399
<v Speaker 3>You're to call the malls that we want you to fight.

0:54:44.520 --> 0:54:45.239
<v Speaker 1>I always take it.

0:54:45.400 --> 0:54:47.200
<v Speaker 5>Well, yeah, I think, well, I think that's the greatest

0:54:47.239 --> 0:54:50.279
<v Speaker 5>fight for me because I think I can out wrestle him.

0:54:50.400 --> 0:54:52.720
<v Speaker 5>I also think I also think I have better cardio

0:54:52.760 --> 0:54:56.000
<v Speaker 5>than him. I also think he's but it's hard for me.

0:54:56.120 --> 0:54:58.640
<v Speaker 5>It's hard for me to go there because I've said

0:54:58.640 --> 0:55:00.879
<v Speaker 5>I I can be, could be before, But then people say,

0:55:01.000 --> 0:55:02.080
<v Speaker 5>well they why don't you come prove it in the

0:55:02.160 --> 0:55:04.640
<v Speaker 5>UFC And it's like, Okay, well, I don't want to

0:55:04.680 --> 0:55:06.360
<v Speaker 5>take a pay cut to go fight could be. You know,

0:55:06.400 --> 0:55:06.880
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to.

0:55:06.880 --> 0:55:08.520
<v Speaker 4>I don't want to have all this all this risk

0:55:08.600 --> 0:55:13.000
<v Speaker 4>and what if bellatur and UFC got together. Have they

0:55:13.040 --> 0:55:15.719
<v Speaker 4>ever have they ever talked about joining, not joining, but

0:55:15.800 --> 0:55:17.440
<v Speaker 4>maybe like doing a dual fight, like here our guy

0:55:17.560 --> 0:55:18.160
<v Speaker 4>versus your guy.

0:55:19.960 --> 0:55:21.120
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, they kind of each other.

0:55:21.160 --> 0:55:22.960
<v Speaker 3>I don't hate each other. It's probably it's a business.

0:55:23.000 --> 0:55:23.520
<v Speaker 5>It's a business.

0:55:23.520 --> 0:55:26.600
<v Speaker 4>And any business like if i'm you know, your Apple

0:55:26.640 --> 0:55:29.040
<v Speaker 4>and Microsoft or something like that or whatever, it's like

0:55:29.120 --> 0:55:32.560
<v Speaker 4>it's kind of yeah, you're you're your competition.

0:55:32.840 --> 0:55:33.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's true.

0:55:33.560 --> 0:55:35.640
<v Speaker 5>Well it well number one, I will say it is

0:55:35.719 --> 0:55:37.839
<v Speaker 5>a possibility because if it makes money, it makes sense.

0:55:38.000 --> 0:55:40.480
<v Speaker 5>And in this in this industry, right in any industry,

0:55:40.480 --> 0:55:43.600
<v Speaker 5>if if if they knew they could make a billion

0:55:43.680 --> 0:55:46.160
<v Speaker 5>dollars on a pay per view because they have all

0:55:46.320 --> 0:55:47.880
<v Speaker 5>the fight, all the best fighters on the fit on

0:55:47.920 --> 0:55:49.960
<v Speaker 5>the same card, they would probably do it. But the

0:55:50.040 --> 0:55:53.480
<v Speaker 5>problem is there's there's a lot of risk involved for

0:55:53.560 --> 0:55:56.239
<v Speaker 5>the UFC. If if I came over and beat Matt

0:55:56.280 --> 0:55:58.760
<v Speaker 5>to meat kabib Or, and then if our one seventy

0:55:58.800 --> 0:56:00.759
<v Speaker 5>pounder came over and beat the ones pound and then

0:56:00.840 --> 0:56:03.319
<v Speaker 5>Bellotour wins a couple of those fights, the UFC all

0:56:03.320 --> 0:56:06.600
<v Speaker 5>of a sudden loses their little notch of the greatest organization.

0:56:06.680 --> 0:56:08.120
<v Speaker 5>With the greatest fighters and.

0:56:08.719 --> 0:56:11.680
<v Speaker 4>Bellotour the UFC have the money to be like, hey,

0:56:12.280 --> 0:56:16.279
<v Speaker 4>come come fight for us and money they do, but

0:56:16.360 --> 0:56:17.560
<v Speaker 4>they do, but they don't.

0:56:17.600 --> 0:56:19.279
<v Speaker 5>They don't need to. And that's and that's the thing

0:56:19.360 --> 0:56:22.120
<v Speaker 5>I mean. And and I'm and I'm I'm self aware

0:56:22.239 --> 0:56:24.399
<v Speaker 5>enough to realize I'm not I'm not a huge draw either.

0:56:24.400 --> 0:56:27.040
<v Speaker 5>There's guys, there's guys that have been in the UFC

0:56:27.120 --> 0:56:29.160
<v Speaker 5>who have barely cracked the top ten who may have

0:56:29.320 --> 0:56:31.880
<v Speaker 5>a bigger name than me in that UFC crowd and

0:56:31.920 --> 0:56:33.160
<v Speaker 5>the bigger mainstream crowd.

0:56:33.200 --> 0:56:33.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean.

0:56:33.920 --> 0:56:35.920
<v Speaker 5>The amount of guys that have been in the UFC

0:56:36.120 --> 0:56:41.120
<v Speaker 5>and and gotten great followings and and in great respect

0:56:41.200 --> 0:56:43.800
<v Speaker 5>in the sport, but are very very subpar fighters is

0:56:44.200 --> 0:56:46.760
<v Speaker 5>just mind blowing just because they fought in the UFC

0:56:47.160 --> 0:56:50.799
<v Speaker 5>under the UFC banner. But it's it's it's the nature

0:56:50.800 --> 0:56:52.279
<v Speaker 5>of our sport. In ten years from now, it will

0:56:52.320 --> 0:56:53.640
<v Speaker 5>be I think it'll be a lot different. I think

0:56:53.640 --> 0:56:56.839
<v Speaker 5>there'll be other organizations like Bellotour coming in. One FC

0:56:57.040 --> 0:56:59.600
<v Speaker 5>is now growing, you know, there's gonna be another organization

0:56:59.680 --> 0:57:01.960
<v Speaker 5>come in with probably a big a lot of money,

0:57:02.000 --> 0:57:04.520
<v Speaker 5>a lot of backing, and uh, it's going to just

0:57:04.640 --> 0:57:07.360
<v Speaker 5>keep keep happening. And competition is always good. You know,

0:57:07.480 --> 0:57:08.200
<v Speaker 5>competition is.

0:57:08.480 --> 0:57:09.880
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of fighters out there too.

0:57:09.960 --> 0:57:11.520
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, there's a lot. I mean there's enough fighters to

0:57:11.680 --> 0:57:13.840
<v Speaker 5>to be you know, you got Pro Fight League. Pro

0:57:13.880 --> 0:57:15.800
<v Speaker 5>Fight League is. You know, they have a million dollar tournament.

0:57:15.840 --> 0:57:17.440
<v Speaker 5>If you win, like you know, six fights or whatever,

0:57:17.440 --> 0:57:19.600
<v Speaker 5>you get a million dollars or however that works. But

0:57:19.800 --> 0:57:21.960
<v Speaker 5>you know they're doing you know they're doing they're doing

0:57:22.000 --> 0:57:22.240
<v Speaker 5>their thing.

<v Speaker 2>Does Beltre still do that tournament style that you're talking

0:57:24.400 --> 0:57:26.480
<v Speaker 2>about the three fights in three months and ship like that.

0:57:26.600 --> 0:57:28.400
<v Speaker 5>They do a tournament, but now it's more like three

0:57:28.440 --> 0:57:30.919
<v Speaker 5>fights over a year. God, which is which is still cool?

0:57:31.000 --> 0:57:35.120

<v Speaker 2>Huge tournament and it was all done but in a

0:57:40.560 --> 0:57:44.000
<v Speaker 2>in in like a weekend, right yeah, well in one night.

0:57:44.040 --> 0:57:45.720
<v Speaker 5>They used to have a fight a couple of times

0:57:45.760 --> 0:57:48.200
<v Speaker 5>in one night too, I mean yeah, it's it's crazy, man. Yeah,

0:57:48.280 --> 0:57:50.480
<v Speaker 5>So they did it. They did it in Belotour a

0:57:50.520 --> 0:57:51.800
<v Speaker 5>couple of years ago. Or it was a four man

0:57:51.920 --> 0:57:55.120
<v Speaker 5>tournament two fights in two nights or to you know,

0:57:55.800 --> 0:57:57.880
<v Speaker 5>each guy fought two fights and two nights. Yeah, so

0:57:58.640 --> 0:58:01.640
<v Speaker 5>who knows. I mean, it's the entertainment business.

0:58:02.280 --> 0:58:04.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but you get your ass knocked up a little

0:58:04.240 --> 0:58:07.240
<v Speaker 3>bit all that. What's okay? You get knocked out? What's

0:58:07.240 --> 0:58:09.600
<v Speaker 3>what's a concussion protocol for you guys in the UFC

0:58:10.600 --> 0:58:10.760
<v Speaker 3>or not?

0:58:10.880 --> 0:58:12.800
<v Speaker 4>So I keep saying UFC, I'm sorry, that's just mixed

0:58:12.800 --> 0:58:14.440
<v Speaker 4>martial arts next martial mm A.

0:58:16.000 --> 0:58:24.840
<v Speaker 5>You know, trust me, trust me, Like five years ago,

0:58:25.000 --> 0:58:27.240
<v Speaker 5>it would it would have bothered me. But I know

0:58:27.400 --> 0:58:29.200
<v Speaker 5>that I've made the right decision, you know, Like that's

0:58:29.280 --> 0:58:31.560
<v Speaker 5>that's the thing. I know. I know that I've made

0:58:31.600 --> 0:58:32.240
<v Speaker 5>the right decision.

0:58:36.200 --> 0:58:39.360
<v Speaker 4>The UFC is just a lack of the how much intelligence,

0:58:39.360 --> 0:58:45.160
<v Speaker 4>like I educated myself, but also you know, fight exactly

0:58:45.240 --> 0:58:45.920
<v Speaker 4>but any of that stuff.

0:58:45.960 --> 0:58:48.960
<v Speaker 5>But also kudos to the uf C for branding the

0:58:49.160 --> 0:58:51.920
<v Speaker 5>u f C to make people think, because people say,

0:58:51.960 --> 0:58:53.960
<v Speaker 5>what's is is that? Like uf is that like UFC?

0:58:54.360 --> 0:58:55.000
<v Speaker 3>Is it like m m A?

0:58:55.040 --> 0:58:56.480
<v Speaker 5>And I'm like it is m m A. You know,

0:58:56.680 --> 0:58:58.680
<v Speaker 5>just like you guys play football in the NFL, I

0:58:59.160 --> 0:59:01.480
<v Speaker 5>fight mixed martial art. It's in bellot or in UFC.

0:59:03.400 --> 0:59:04.280
<v Speaker 5>What was your question again?

0:59:04.760 --> 0:59:07.520
<v Speaker 2>It was like it's like it's like cushion, it's like

0:59:07.600 --> 0:59:10.680
<v Speaker 2>cleanexxally Q tip exactly.

0:59:10.840 --> 0:59:12.880
<v Speaker 1>Kleenex is like the best branding company of all time,

0:59:13.120 --> 0:59:14.360
<v Speaker 1>greatest look it.

0:59:14.400 --> 0:59:18.600
<v Speaker 5>Up concussion protocol. So so we always get so so

0:59:18.960 --> 0:59:22.320
<v Speaker 5>bellotoor UFC, these fight promotions don't actually govern themselves. They

0:59:22.360 --> 0:59:25.120
<v Speaker 5>are governed by the boxing commissions. So my last fight

0:59:25.320 --> 0:59:29.960
<v Speaker 5>was the Illinois State Athletic Commission or Boxing commission, so

0:59:30.120 --> 0:59:32.640
<v Speaker 5>they will suspend you. So depending on no matter what,

0:59:32.680 --> 0:59:34.480
<v Speaker 5>if you win your fight, you're going to get a

0:59:34.520 --> 0:59:38.080
<v Speaker 5>seven day or probably a fourteen day suspension that says

0:59:38.120 --> 0:59:40.640
<v Speaker 5>you can't fight in fourteen days, which you shouldn't be anyway.

0:59:41.120 --> 0:59:42.640
<v Speaker 5>But when you lose a fight, it's pretty much like

0:59:42.680 --> 0:59:44.720
<v Speaker 5>an automatic thirty day. If if it's a TKO loss

0:59:44.800 --> 0:59:48.360
<v Speaker 5>or something like that, it's an automatic sixty day, no contact,

0:59:48.440 --> 0:59:50.320
<v Speaker 5>no nothing, which is it's only two months. I mean

0:59:50.320 --> 0:59:52.480
<v Speaker 5>you should definitely be taking two months off. If you

0:59:52.560 --> 0:59:54.760
<v Speaker 5>get knocked out or TKOT or whatnot.

0:59:54.960 --> 0:59:57.680
<v Speaker 3>You really exercise or anything during that No, you're allowed to.

0:59:57.760 --> 1:00:00.280
<v Speaker 5>You just you just cannot get a it's SAI like

1:00:00.360 --> 1:00:02.600
<v Speaker 5>you can't be licensed in any other state. So I

1:00:02.680 --> 1:00:04.520
<v Speaker 5>could go spar the next day. If I wanted to,

1:00:04.560 --> 1:00:06.880
<v Speaker 5>I can go get in a stryified if I wanted to,

1:00:06.920 --> 1:00:09.720
<v Speaker 5>I can go do whatever I wanted to. But until

1:00:09.800 --> 1:00:13.080
<v Speaker 5>that sixty days suspension is lifted, I can't get another

1:00:13.200 --> 1:00:15.960
<v Speaker 5>I can't go to Nevada and get a boxing license

1:00:16.000 --> 1:00:19.280
<v Speaker 5>to box or or fight because because I am currently suspended.

1:00:19.400 --> 1:00:20.720
<v Speaker 5>Just the same thing with like, if I failed a

1:00:20.760 --> 1:00:24.000
<v Speaker 5>drug test, that would be suspended for two years under

1:00:24.080 --> 1:00:27.520
<v Speaker 5>the you know whatever sanction, and I wouldn't be able

1:00:27.560 --> 1:00:30.240
<v Speaker 5>to get a sanction anywhere else in any other state,

1:00:31.320 --> 1:00:34.240
<v Speaker 5>or you know, flagrantly whenever it could be jumped out

1:00:34.240 --> 1:00:36.680
<v Speaker 5>of the cage and drop kick that guy during the

1:00:37.160 --> 1:00:40.560
<v Speaker 5>CONIFI Like he got suspended, so he Nevada suspended his

1:00:40.680 --> 1:00:42.560
<v Speaker 5>license for X amount of days, he wasn't able to

1:00:42.640 --> 1:00:46.439
<v Speaker 5>get another license in any other state to compete until

1:00:46.480 --> 1:00:47.480
<v Speaker 5>that suspension was lifted.

1:00:48.160 --> 1:00:49.320
<v Speaker 3>Damn, that's crazy shit.

1:00:49.440 --> 1:00:51.160
<v Speaker 1>You thought about starting a podcast on your own?

1:00:51.680 --> 1:00:51.880
<v Speaker 3>I have?

1:00:52.440 --> 1:00:54.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, if I'm a book, are you have you started

1:00:54.840 --> 1:00:57.000
<v Speaker 2>on the book six hundred and eighty eight days now?

1:00:57.080 --> 1:00:58.920
<v Speaker 5>I mean I've I've gotten a little journal stuff here.

1:00:58.920 --> 1:01:00.439
<v Speaker 5>I mean I journal a lot and kind of write

1:01:00.480 --> 1:01:02.560
<v Speaker 5>some stuff down because I mean, one of the biggest

1:01:02.600 --> 1:01:03.760
<v Speaker 5>things is just forgetting.

1:01:03.880 --> 1:01:04.040
<v Speaker 1>You know.

1:01:04.240 --> 1:01:05.720
<v Speaker 5>The great thing is I got I got a brother

1:01:05.800 --> 1:01:09.160
<v Speaker 5>who who like my brother and I live together for years.

1:01:09.240 --> 1:01:11.280
<v Speaker 5>Like he can recall memories, remember that time, this and

1:01:11.280 --> 1:01:12.600
<v Speaker 5>that and the other thing, and I can ask no question.

1:01:12.640 --> 1:01:14.680
<v Speaker 5>He'll go off on a tangent. So I think he

1:01:14.800 --> 1:01:16.479
<v Speaker 5>will be my ghost writer, or at least my ghost

1:01:17.120 --> 1:01:20.360

1:04:38.040 --> 1:04:42.800
<v Speaker 5>recommended daily allowance or whatever. It's all very very very low.

1:04:42.880 --> 1:04:45.480
<v Speaker 5>It's essentially when we read you know when we read

1:04:45.800 --> 1:04:47.520
<v Speaker 5>you know, the minimums of what we should be taking

1:04:47.560 --> 1:04:50.480
<v Speaker 5>of all these supplements, it's just enough to to not

1:04:50.600 --> 1:04:54.440
<v Speaker 5>get like a exactly. So I pretty much double everything.

1:04:54.520 --> 1:04:56.600
<v Speaker 5>I mean, they got kril oil in the morning, you

1:04:56.680 --> 1:05:00.520
<v Speaker 5>bick one all co q ten uh, carnetine? Do you ribos?

1:05:01.720 --> 1:05:03.240
<v Speaker 5>A lot of that stuff has to just do with

1:05:03.360 --> 1:05:05.720
<v Speaker 5>the brain getting the body going. I hired a coach

1:05:05.840 --> 1:05:09.960
<v Speaker 5>out of California. Yeah, he's called the Training Lab. It's

1:05:10.040 --> 1:05:13.400
<v Speaker 5>a Sam Calavita. He's a he's a science teacher by

1:05:13.560 --> 1:05:16.040
<v Speaker 5>by trade, or no, sorry, a math teacher. He's a

1:05:16.080 --> 1:05:20.640
<v Speaker 5>mathematician by by that's his profession. But he's just a

1:05:20.800 --> 1:05:23.320
<v Speaker 5>he's a big time endurance athlete coach. So he does

1:05:23.360 --> 1:05:25.880
<v Speaker 5>iron Man's himself. So, I mean, the older I get

1:05:26.680 --> 1:05:28.920
<v Speaker 5>trying to break the body down to a cellular molecular

1:05:29.040 --> 1:05:32.000
<v Speaker 5>level and try to realize that if you treat the

1:05:32.040 --> 1:05:35.080
<v Speaker 5>body the way that it was it was designed, that

1:05:35.240 --> 1:05:37.280
<v Speaker 5>it will give you much much more, you know, And

1:05:37.320 --> 1:05:39.720
<v Speaker 5>if I can just get one extra year of fighting,

1:05:39.800 --> 1:05:42.120
<v Speaker 5>that's a nice chunk of change for my family. So

1:05:42.440 --> 1:05:44.560
<v Speaker 5>being able to prolong that as much as possible.

1:05:44.640 --> 1:05:47.400
<v Speaker 4>What do you think about doctors saying, like I've heard,

1:05:47.440 --> 1:05:49.320
<v Speaker 4>I've had doctors tell me that, oh, the only you

1:05:49.320 --> 1:05:51.400
<v Speaker 4>don't need to take supplements, what you need to do

1:05:51.520 --> 1:05:53.640
<v Speaker 4>is as much rest as possible and eat right.

1:05:54.360 --> 1:05:58.880
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I think that's rubbish. I think, no offense the doctors,

1:05:58.880 --> 1:06:01.400
<v Speaker 5>but I think I I don't even listen to doctors

1:06:01.480 --> 1:06:04.360
<v Speaker 5>much these days. Like if if I got an orthopedic problem,

1:06:04.720 --> 1:06:06.800
<v Speaker 5>I will listen to a doctor. If I gotta, if

1:06:06.840 --> 1:06:08.640
<v Speaker 5>I have like a cardiac problem, if I have a

1:06:08.760 --> 1:06:10.919
<v Speaker 5>heart of problem, I'm listening to a doctor.

1:06:10.960 --> 1:06:13.160
<v Speaker 3>But it has to be a very specific but general

1:06:13.960 --> 1:06:14.439
<v Speaker 3>general doctor.

1:06:14.520 --> 1:06:17.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah but sorry, yeah, mds. And it's just it's just

1:06:17.360 --> 1:06:18.920
<v Speaker 5>I mean, my wife will tell you too. She she

1:06:19.000 --> 1:06:20.880
<v Speaker 5>took the medical route. She was a physician assistant, so

1:06:20.960 --> 1:06:23.760
<v Speaker 5>like she she crushes it in the e er so

1:06:23.800 --> 1:06:25.880
<v Speaker 5>we're savannahbielt Er and all that kind of stuff. So

1:06:26.000 --> 1:06:29.160
<v Speaker 5>she's but she even understands that the way that they

1:06:29.200 --> 1:06:31.720
<v Speaker 5>are trained, it's just it's just to treat the symptoms

1:06:31.840 --> 1:06:34.840
<v Speaker 5>and not make them make people more healthy human beings,

1:06:35.000 --> 1:06:36.880
<v Speaker 5>not the calls. Not get to the room of everything.

1:06:37.000 --> 1:06:39.400
<v Speaker 5>So I mean I'm more of like a I mean,

1:06:39.560 --> 1:06:41.160
<v Speaker 5>some people can get out there and kind of weird

1:06:41.200 --> 1:06:44.919
<v Speaker 5>but homeopathic kind of doctors, like the the Eastern type

1:08:06.280 --> 1:08:08.320
<v Speaker 5>If when a doctor says that, or people say that

1:08:08.360 --> 1:08:10.800
<v Speaker 5>because it's easy to say, because it's easy to shame people.

1:08:10.800 --> 1:08:12.520
<v Speaker 5>You should be eating better and you don't need supplements.

1:08:12.560 --> 1:08:15.280
<v Speaker 5>It's easy to do that. But it's just not it's

1:08:15.360 --> 1:08:17.200
<v Speaker 5>not very practical, right, you know what I mean? And

1:08:17.360 --> 1:08:19.799
<v Speaker 5>especially with what we do, we need way more protein

1:08:19.880 --> 1:08:21.400
<v Speaker 5>than is recommended.

1:08:21.040 --> 1:08:23.560

<v Speaker 3>You know, Guys that are.

1:09:06.560 --> 1:09:11.280
<v Speaker 2>Physically exerting themselves all the time, they get deficient and

1:09:11.320 --> 1:09:13.120
<v Speaker 2>vitamin D. I want to say, in the NFL, you're like,

1:09:13.320 --> 1:09:16.479
<v Speaker 2>I think even the national ranking two, like seventy to

1:09:16.520 --> 1:09:20.800
<v Speaker 2>eighty percent of all people are vitamin D deficient. And like,

1:09:20.880 --> 1:09:23.720
<v Speaker 2>when I consult with my guy, he puts me on

1:09:23.880 --> 1:09:27.679
<v Speaker 2>like ten thousand to twenty thousand VYUD if I'm deficient

1:09:27.720 --> 1:09:29.599
<v Speaker 2>in it until I get back to that next blood

1:09:29.600 --> 1:09:30.960
<v Speaker 2>test and I'm good, then I'll go back down to

1:09:31.200 --> 1:09:34.479
<v Speaker 2>like five or ten. But yeah, I'm I feel the

1:09:34.520 --> 1:09:37.280
<v Speaker 2>same way, like doubling shit and doing stuff where I'm like,

1:09:37.439 --> 1:09:38.840

1:09:38.880 --> 1:09:41.479
<v Speaker 2>so to do this, And they're like, oh, that's bullshit. Will, Yeah,

<v Speaker 5>Yeah, It's it's true. I mean, And that's what's great

1:09:47.280 --> 1:09:50.200
<v Speaker 5>is in twenty nineteen, you know this day and age,

1:09:50.240 --> 1:09:53.320
<v Speaker 5>there's no reason to not seek out all of this information.

1:09:53.439 --> 1:09:56.280
<v Speaker 5>Seek out these these type of doctors. Seek out. Don't

1:09:56.400 --> 1:09:58.400
<v Speaker 5>just read what the FDA puts on the back of

1:09:58.840 --> 1:10:01.599
<v Speaker 5>bottles and read all that that stuff, because yet it's

1:10:01.760 --> 1:10:05.519
<v Speaker 5>not enough for optimizing human performance. You know, and you

1:10:05.600 --> 1:10:07.719
<v Speaker 5>guys have access to to a lot of great people.

1:10:08.280 --> 1:10:10.040

<v Speaker 5>Yeah, to be able to you know, and some of

1:10:15.720 --> 1:10:17.400
<v Speaker 5>the stuff you read is going to be bs. But

1:10:17.439 --> 1:10:19.200
<v Speaker 5>a lot of the stuff if you deep, if you

1:10:19.280 --> 1:10:19.840
<v Speaker 5>dig deep.

1:10:19.800 --> 1:10:20.400

<v Speaker 2>And we're not telling you guys to go to your

1:10:23.240 --> 1:10:26.280
<v Speaker 2>cathins right now and just start double trip everything with

1:10:26.320 --> 1:10:26.759

1:10:41.479 --> 1:10:44.040
<v Speaker 5>That's say you know, I just just because I don't

1:10:44.040 --> 1:10:46.800
<v Speaker 5>listen to it doesn't means give you they put bullshit

1:10:46.840 --> 1:10:48.720
<v Speaker 5>in your system, give you pills and all this, and

1:10:49.000 --> 1:10:50.880
<v Speaker 5>it hurts here, Okay, take a viking in and all that.

1:10:51.040 --> 1:10:54.280
<v Speaker 3>It's like the same yeah, it goes yeah.

1:10:54.320 --> 1:10:55.760
<v Speaker 5>Well, and that's the same thing as you know, the

1:10:55.840 --> 1:10:58.479
<v Speaker 5>treating treating the symptom instead of the actual root problem.

1:10:58.520 --> 1:11:00.640
<v Speaker 5>I mean, it's uh, and a lot of it has

1:11:00.680 --> 1:11:02.120
<v Speaker 5>to do with diet. When you go when you went

1:11:02.160 --> 1:11:05.320
<v Speaker 5>back to like why America is failing at health, it's

1:11:05.360 --> 1:11:08.799
<v Speaker 5>because we have so many options and so many horrible options,

1:11:08.840 --> 1:11:11.000
<v Speaker 5>and the fact that that we can like they're they're

1:11:11.000 --> 1:11:14.479
<v Speaker 5>able to pump gluten and all these outside agents into

1:11:15.080 --> 1:11:18.400
<v Speaker 5>everything that we're eating is is kind of a tragedy.

1:11:18.600 --> 1:11:21.680
<v Speaker 5>But yeah, it's all about educating yourself and trying to

1:11:22.000 --> 1:11:23.960
<v Speaker 5>once again continue to surround yourself with the right people

1:11:23.960 --> 1:11:26.200
