162
00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 1: What's the reaction like in your home country for everything

163
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:23,120
Speaker 1: you've done this year, first from knocking out Bena Vida

164
00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,280
Speaker 1: as a missing way, then you come back and you

165
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: do it again by submission and you hold up the title.

166
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 5: What is the reaction of your home people?

167
00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,120
Speaker 10: Yeah, let me die.

168
00:09:37,400 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 4: I don't want to them. Pen can only waves, my

169
00:09:45,040 --> 00:10:01,839
Speaker 4: Jimmy trains go ahead. The you know vote, they vote,

170
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:05,000
Speaker 4: they don't. They used forbid about us? Did you make que?

171
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 7: The support of Brazilian fans was really good the first

172
00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:18,559
Speaker 7: for the first fight he didn't bring about, but he

173
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 7: was really hard on himself to do the right diet

174
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,200
Speaker 7: and he was really hard on his team to give

175
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 7: him one hundred attention and he in the second fight,

176
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,000
Speaker 7: he came back very focused.

177
00:10:29,400 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 6: Uh, so the fans were really supportive of him.

178
00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:37,040
Speaker 5: Tell me if I'm wrong here, Davidson.

179
00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:39,559
Speaker 1: But when you fight somebody, you come in there with

180
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 1: so much swagger that I feel like you're trying to

181
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,080
Speaker 1: find out if they're as tough as you are.

182
00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 5: Do you think Alex Perez is as tough as you are?

183
00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 5: This Saturday?

184
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 6: Suppose it is.

185
00:10:57,360 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 4: Cut public needs to damage quill so many can image

186
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,679
Speaker 4: versage he move too much?

187
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 10: Complete, so truly not.

188
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 7: He approved on Saturday that he's a stronger fighter, and

189
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 7: the fans will clearly see how much of.

190
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:16,319
Speaker 6: A better fighter he is.

191
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 1: All right, Davidson, do you think he'll be seeing Cody

192
00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:22,719
Speaker 1: Garbran again? Do you think it's possible that he can

193
00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,439
Speaker 1: make this way and be the same fighter he was

194
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:26,559
Speaker 1: at Panama.

195
00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 4: And much complete? Cody battle Piers but prepara Domino the

196
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 4: Cody Garbage check up, super look oil super.

197
00:11:55,559 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 1: Uh.

198
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 7: He knows his division is complicated for Guardbrand, but he

199
00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 7: hopes he will make weight because it would be great

200
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:03,079
Speaker 7: to fight him.

201
00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 10: Uh.

202
00:12:04,040 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 6: He will be waiting for him with his belt.

203
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,559
Speaker 7: But if he doesn't make weight, he could fight in

204
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 7: a catchway fight or maybe even in bent some weight five.

205
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 6: He would be ready.

206
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: All right, David soon if you keep winning, if this

207
00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,320
Speaker 1: becomes your division, do you think that phone will ring

208
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 1: one day and it will be Henry Shuro on the

209
00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 1: other end trying to get his title back?

210
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: Quite kill.

211
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 10: In he finds it.

212
00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,400
Speaker 7: He finds it very difficult to that to say to

213
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,679
Speaker 7: the die because he thinks he's a little overweight.

214
00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:58,079
Speaker 6: But he hopes he can come back and maybe for

215
00:12:58,160 --> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 6: a super fight.

216
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,120
Speaker 7: He doesn't think, uh say who would make weight for

217
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:05,120
Speaker 7: the for the flyweight division, but he would definitely fight

218
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:06,160
Speaker 7: him on benam way.

219
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,880
Speaker 1: All right, here's the last question, the most important one, Davidson.

220
00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,439
Speaker 1: If you defeat Alex Perez, you get your hand raised

221
00:13:12,440 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 1: on Saturday.

222
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:15,080
Speaker 5: What are you eating first?

223
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,560

00:14:37,080 --> 00:14:37,480

Speaker 8: So feeling amazing.

248
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:41,000
Speaker 5: Valentino.

249
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,160
Speaker 1: I know you're a fighter, so you don't worry about

250
00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:46,000
Speaker 1: things like betting odds. But when you have a fight

251
00:14:46,120 --> 00:14:48,680
Speaker 1: and the betting odds come out and you're like minus

252
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: seventeen hundred favorite, which in theory is like no chance

253
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: she could lose, how do you deal with that? Oh?

254
00:14:56,920 --> 00:15:01,200
Speaker 12: I just don't look at it. I just my attention

255
00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:05,040
Speaker 12: is far away from these things, you know. I'm more

256
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:11,280
Speaker 12: concerned and concentrated on my preparation, and this is what really.

257
00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 8: Matter for me.

258
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,720
Speaker 12: How I feel, how I my body, feel, my mind,

259
00:15:16,120 --> 00:15:20,160
Speaker 12: my everything, every single nerve. This is what's important for me.

260
00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 12: Is that's why I'm so focused on my preparation and

261
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 12: my performance.

262
00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,920
Speaker 1: Is this fight going to be any different because your

263
00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,880
Speaker 1: sister Atonina is going to join you on the same card.

264
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:32,320
Speaker 5: And I did a little research.

265
00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:35,360
Speaker 1: Two thousand and five was the last time in MMA

266
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 1: at least that you guys have fallen the same time

267
00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 1: that was in South Korea?

268
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:41,080
Speaker 5: How does that change things for you?

269
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 8: Oh?

270
00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:44,600
Speaker 12: No, it was not two thousand and five last time,

271
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 12: because we thought a lot in Muay Thai Championships.

272
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:52,119
Speaker 8: At least two thousand and fifteen.

273
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 12: It was I think, yes, twenty fifteen for the Muay

274
00:15:57,320 --> 00:16:01,080
Speaker 12: Thai Championships. It was the fast time than before on

275
00:16:01,160 --> 00:16:05,239
Speaker 12: the same card, the same World Championship.

276
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:08,280
Speaker 8: And yeah, you know it's kind of like.

277
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:11,800
Speaker 10: Hard but easy.

278
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:17,040
Speaker 8: From from other parts, it's easy if it's because we have.

279
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:22,880
Speaker 12: All preparation together, we helping each other and we do

280
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 12: every time like our trainings together. From other side, we

281
00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 12: know how what to expect from these kind of challenging

282
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 12: and when she's fighting first and me, well, I know

283
00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 12: how to manage my feelings, my nervous and everything for

284
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:49,040
Speaker 12: not being affected with always right. But it's great from

285
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 12: because we work together. We train very hard together, and

286
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 12: we can just have free time for little bit together

287
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 12: as well. Because before it was kind of like I'm

288
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,560
Speaker 12: preparing he helped, she helping me. Then she started to

289
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 12: prepare to her fight.

290
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 8: I help in her. But you know who suffers more

291
00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:16,680
Speaker 8: from all of this, it's our coach.

292
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:23,560
Speaker 12: Is constant to work from one to anaz from one

293
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 12: to an no rest for him.

294
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:27,520
Speaker 8: But this time is going to be a little bit

295
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 8: ressed for everything.

296
00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:31,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, their sister is going to be in there against

297
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 1: Arian Lipski, I believe it is her name.

298
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,119
Speaker 5: You'll be in there, of course in the cold main event.

299
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 1: Do you corner each other when this happens, when you

300
00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,440
Speaker 1: fight on the same corner, do you just separate the business? No?

301
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 12: This time, No, it's going to be too much for cornering.

302
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 12: And yeah, we have amazing guys who are going to

303
00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:56,360
Speaker 12: be cornering us along the side of our coach pile.

304
00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 12: So we uh, we got to join together after as

305
00:18:00,200 --> 00:18:00,720
Speaker 12: an event.

306
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,840
Speaker 5: Absolutely, All right, let's talk about this fight.

307
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:06,080
Speaker 1: You thought you were going to get Joe and Calder,

308
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:08,639
Speaker 1: which she was looking to be the number one contender, Jennifer.

309
00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 1: I had a fantastic performance against her to slide in.

310
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:13,640
Speaker 1: What did you think watching that fight?

311
00:18:13,720 --> 00:18:16,359
Speaker 5: Did you think you've got a legitimate contender coming at

312
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 5: you on Saturday?

313
00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 12: Yes, so I think so Jennifer. She is very strong

314
00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:27,720
Speaker 12: and she has good skills. She's complete MMA fighter. She

315
00:18:27,880 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 12: has good stand up, good grounds. So I prepared very

316
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:35,080
Speaker 12: good for her. I know exactly what.

317
00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 8: To expect from her and what I have to do

318
00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 8: to being her as the most important.

319
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 1: This division has not been the deepest historically. You're the

320
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 1: star of it, but it feels like it's getting a

321
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: little bit better. I saw a nice performance from Lauren Murphy.

322
00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,600
Speaker 1: I saw Jessica Andrage make her debut. We've got another

323
00:18:57,680 --> 00:18:59,919
Speaker 1: big fight in the division on Saturday with Cynthia kel

324
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,800
Speaker 1: Veo and Kaitlin Chukji. And how do you feel about

325
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 1: the changing over of the depth right now?

326
00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:10,320
Speaker 12: Yeah, Like from time to time, I keep hearing the

327
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 12: old people saying the flyweight it's not that good, not

328
00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,960
Speaker 12: that good, But it's not that. I don't know why

329
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 12: people put in this like cliche, heare for flyweight, because

330
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 12: it's totally not true. Because if you will see each.

331
00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 8: Fighter top ten.

332
00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 12: They are very strong, they are very interesting fighters, and

333
00:19:34,480 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 12: I think that they're gonna they would do a lot

334
00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,480
Speaker 12: of problems for anyone in bantamweight or flyweight or straw weight.

335
00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 12: But definitely it's you know, I think the future of

336
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 12: the female MMA it's gonna be after flyweight because it's

337
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,959
Speaker 12: the perfect weight class for female athletes. And you can

338
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:00,399
Speaker 12: see now a lot of bantam weights going down, a

339
00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 12: lot of strawgages going up, and we have more like

340
00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 12: from outside promotions coming joining the U see. So yes,

341
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:12,840
Speaker 12: it's going to be even even more interesting in the future. Uh.

342
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:16,320
Speaker 5: Do you there's a weird question, but you've been so dominant.

343
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:19,560
Speaker 1: Do you prefer to be dominant or are you waiting

344
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:22,320
Speaker 1: for somebody to be your equal in there?

345
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:29,600
Speaker 8: You know, it's I trained very hard to be the

346
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:32,480
Speaker 8: dominate and I won't lose my position.

347
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:37,719
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, keep it up, it's working. You're doing well. Uh.

348
00:20:38,119 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: Do you take any kind of stock into what you're

349
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:43,679
Speaker 1: building for your career right now? Because the UFC opening

350
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 1: up this division, which is your natural weight class, your

351
00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 1: strongest weight. If you keep winning, you could be putting

352
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 1: title defense records behind you.

353
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:53,920
Speaker 5: You could really elevate yourself.

354
00:20:54,280 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: You're on the fast track of becoming one of the

355
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,359
Speaker 1: greatest fighters in the history of female women's mma.

356
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 5: You amain, I don't you know.

357
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,840
Speaker 1: I don't say that likely that's a giant thing. Is

358
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:06,600
Speaker 1: it something that you can comprehend now? Or do you

359
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 1: just say I'll deal with that after I retire.

360
00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 12: Now for me to do at this moment what I

361
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:17,360
Speaker 12: love the most, it's the number one and I love

362
00:21:17,640 --> 00:21:18,560
Speaker 12: my martial arts.

363
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 8: I love to compete, and you know, to think about

364
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:27,840
Speaker 8: what legs, what history, what you want to people remember you.

365
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,320
Speaker 8: It's not right.

366
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 12: You have to make your history now without thinks things.

367
00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:39,360
Speaker 12: You have to do everything as best as you can

368
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 12: to put your heart is a full heart in everything

369
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 12: that you are to and after if people decide to

370
00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 12: put you in some position, it's good. But you never

371
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,879
Speaker 12: have to ask someone, oh you have to put me

372
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 12: in there in the drunking and it's here in there.

373
00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,080
Speaker 12: It's it's I don't know, it's just like not myself.

374
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 12: I don't see me just like going and saying, oh,

375
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 12: please put me here, put me there. I just do

376
00:22:08,600 --> 00:22:11,200
Speaker 12: what I love the most, martial arts. For me, it's everything.

377
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 5: Well, opening up this division now and you bring the

378
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:15,440
Speaker 5: best flyway.

379
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 1: Does it make you want to stay at this weight

380
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,960
Speaker 1: class or are you still open to moving up again

381
00:22:20,040 --> 00:22:22,679
Speaker 1: for the right big fight. Uh?

382
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:27,520
Speaker 12: You know, I was competing first in bantamweight and I

383
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 12: felt very strong in this weight class as well.

384
00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:37,119
Speaker 8: But the same your feelings that they're all bigger, just bigger.

385
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:38,919
Speaker 8: They're higher and bigger.

386
00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 12: You feel it, and being in your perfect weight class,

387
00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 12: it feels so amazing, so good. That's why I have

388
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,920
Speaker 12: my goal to defend my belt as much as I can.

389
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:55,200
Speaker 12: But I'm still open for any opportunities to come, all right.

390
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:57,359
Speaker 1: I mean, look, I don't know if I've done an

391
00:22:57,400 --> 00:22:59,760
Speaker 1: interview with you or I haven't used the name Amanda Newness.

392
00:23:00,040 --> 00:23:02,160
Speaker 1: People always bring it up. You guys aren't even talking

393
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:04,520
Speaker 1: about each other. You got your own business. If you

394
00:23:04,720 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 1: retire without getting that third chance, will you be.

395
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 5: Okay with that?

396
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,240
Speaker 8: That is gonna happen?

397
00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:16,640
Speaker 12: I still think, Uh, I don't know, soon later when,

398
00:23:16,840 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 12: I don't know, but I think it's gonna happen anyway

399
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:20,760
Speaker 12: before we both retired.

400
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,399
Speaker 5: I mean, let's be honest. You won the second fight, Valentino.

401
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 5: I saw it. I saw it.

402
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,640
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's true. It's true.

403
00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:35,399
Speaker 12: So I know exactly that our second fight is the

404
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:40,479
Speaker 12: last fight. It was not the result, the right result.

405
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:44,720
Speaker 12: But that's why I think it's That's why I think

406
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 12: it's gonna happen too.

407
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,920
Speaker 1: Ultimately, what do you think, whether it's bantamway or fly away,

408
00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:54,600
Speaker 1: what do you think has separated you from the from

409
00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,560
Speaker 1: the fighters you've you've been and what's different about you?

410
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 5: It's just the years of practice in building your art.

411
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 8: I think the experience.

412
00:24:04,119 --> 00:24:08,359
Speaker 12: It's definitely number one, the experience because I do martial

413
00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:12,400
Speaker 12: arts twenty seven years now.

414
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,639
Speaker 5: Wow, Wow, it's a long relationship.

415
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:22,640
Speaker 12: Yes, so twenty seven years I am practicing martial arts,

416
00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 12: doing everything in through these years, I fought so many

417
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 12: different opponents, so many I saw so different situations in

418
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:37,800
Speaker 12: martial arts. That's why it's every single experience that I had,

419
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 12: it gives me more and more things to be better

420
00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 12: and to be the best.

421
00:24:43,600 --> 00:24:43,879
Speaker 8: All right.

422
00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 1: One time, Valentine, I saw an advertisement with you selling

423
00:24:47,160 --> 00:24:48,840
Speaker 1: some soda in co Cola.

424
00:24:49,200 --> 00:24:51,399
Speaker 5: I went to my grocery store. They had it. I

425
00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:54,960
Speaker 5: bought the inc Cola. It's fantastic, that's right.

426
00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:59,439
Speaker 8: I never selling things I was sharing that I drink.

427
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:03,080
Speaker 1: Oh, so it wasn't an average well it wasn't a

428
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:05,960
Speaker 1: sponsorship all right, all right, but you drink it though, right.

429
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:10,640
Speaker 12: It was sponsorship. It was sponsorship. But it's still under

430
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 12: the sponsorship. I am still drinking it and I laugh

431
00:25:14,320 --> 00:25:18,600

00:25:34,080 --> 00:25:36,879
Speaker 5: Wow. Fitting for a champion, of course.

Speaker 7: They had it in Uruguaya foots there. So there is

447
00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,200

00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:40,399
Speaker 13: put my phone on done distairs, so he called me twice.

476
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 13: I looked at it like, oh man, it has to

477
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,560
Speaker 13: be important. And then, you know, I got on the phone.

478
00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 13: He's like, yeah, Cody's out, and I'm like, okay. He's like, yeah,

Speaker 13: it was kind of it was interesting, man. It was

481
00:27:52,840 --> 00:27:54,600
Speaker 13: like probably one of the best feelings in the world

482
00:27:55,720 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 13: to know that, you know, you got to the to

483
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:00,560
Speaker 13: this point, you know, and then obviously the more work

484
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,720
Speaker 13: to be done, but you know, it's just want one

485
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,680
Speaker 13: thing you can mark off your checklist.

486
00:28:05,880 --> 00:28:07,960
Speaker 5: I mean, look, there were a bunch of names who

487
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:10,120
Speaker 5: are on good runs. This division's red hot right now.

488
00:28:10,520 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 1: They went with you the UFC, meaning you're seven and

489
00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:16,600
Speaker 1: one if you count the Dana White Contender Series appearance.

490
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 1: Your UFC run has been nearly flawless right now. How

491
00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:24,040
Speaker 1: itching are you to not just be another name in

492
00:28:24,080 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 1: the Flyway division, but on Saturday, raise that gold and

493
00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,119
Speaker 1: turn your life around in one moment.

494
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 13: Oh man, this is everything I've worked for. You know,

495
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,520
Speaker 13: it's not just the last year. It's been the last

496
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,920
Speaker 13: ten years from when I started to now. You know,

497
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,640
Speaker 13: even they can go be further than that from when

498
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:42,719
Speaker 13: I started wrestling. You know, all those moments and all

499
00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,800
Speaker 13: that stuff got me ready for this moment, and it's

500
00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 13: getting it continues to get me ready for the moments coming.

501
00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:49,600
Speaker 2: Now.

502
00:28:50,080 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: You know, you didn't know you were going to be

503
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:53,800
Speaker 1: in the title fight until you got the opportunity. Were

504
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:56,920
Speaker 1: you already title ready? Were you already where you needed

505
00:28:56,960 --> 00:28:59,160
Speaker 1: to be mentally? Yeah?

506
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,960
Speaker 13: I mean, biggest thing that I take away from all this,

507
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 13: it's still a fight, you know. So I mean whether

508
00:29:04,920 --> 00:29:06,960
Speaker 13: it was gonna fight Brandon or you know, be a

509
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,280
Speaker 13: step in for you know, in case something was happening

510
00:29:09,360 --> 00:29:12,480
Speaker 13: for the main event, you know, it's a fight.

511
00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:15,000
Speaker 10: I'm always in shape, I'm always ready to go. So

512
00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,000
Speaker 10: my mindset was ready.

513
00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:20,880
Speaker 1: There were you guys, and I want you to kind

514
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,080
Speaker 1: of speak for yourself and the division in general. Were

515
00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,400
Speaker 1: you guys okay with Cody Garbrant even getting this opportunity

516
00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: considering like I mentioned, there's.

517
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 5: Three or four of you guys, uh moreno Roy Vall

518
00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:32,600
Speaker 5: who were looking very good at the moment.

519
00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 1: Uh Ascar askro I mean, there's a good division and

520
00:29:36,160 --> 00:29:38,840
Speaker 1: yet a celebrity name got brought in out of nowhere

521
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:39,840
Speaker 1: too cool for the title.

522
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:40,800
Speaker 5: Were you all right with that?

523
00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 10: Honestly?

524
00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,440
Speaker 13: I was a little upset. I think a lot of us,

525
00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,239
Speaker 13: I think a lot of the guys were. But at

526
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 13: the same time, to understand, it's some business. You know,

527
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 13: Cody draws, you know, okay, cool?

528
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 5: You know.

529
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:57,000
Speaker 10: I mean for me, I was upset, you know, you know,

530
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 10: I got knocked down. Just gonna get back up and

531
00:29:58,800 --> 00:29:59,240
Speaker 10: keep working.

532
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,360
Speaker 13: Like my I said, is even if they would have

533
00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:03,920
Speaker 13: gone with someone else for this fight, would have been

534
00:30:04,040 --> 00:30:06,560
Speaker 13: upset and maybe, you know, because I felt like I

535
00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 13: deserved it out to my last win. But at the

536
00:30:08,240 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 13: same time, too, that's life. You can't just like, oh

537
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:12,320
Speaker 13: well I didn't get this. I'm you know, gonna do

538
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,560
Speaker 13: that Like man, shit happens. You gotta I just forget

539
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 13: about it and move on. My mindset was I keep winning.

540
00:30:19,160 --> 00:30:20,960
Speaker 13: They can't deny me the Tyler shot, you know, and

541
00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:21,440
Speaker 13: I got it.

542
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:22,160
Speaker 8: I got it.

543
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 13: I felt like I deserved out in my last fight.

544
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 13: They put me in obviously this someone in the UFC

545
00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:27,440
Speaker 13: thought I deserved it.

546
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 5: So I here, I am all right for me. I'm

547
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 5: sorry enough for me.

548
00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:34,920
Speaker 1: God David in Figurado, the champion, he's eight and one

549
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 1: in the UFC, coming in.

00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:37,200
Speaker 5: You're seven and one.

551
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 1: Oddly enough, each of your losses the other fighter just

552
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:42,920
Speaker 1: beating their last fight.

553
00:30:43,120 --> 00:30:45,320
Speaker 5: You stopping Juca Formiga.

554
00:30:44,960 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: Who was his only loss in the UFC, and him

555
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,200
Speaker 1: beating Joseph ben Vetez, which is your only loss.

556
00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:52,280
Speaker 5: Do we can we do mma mask Can we take

557
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 5: anything from that at all?

558
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:54,720
Speaker 14: No?

559
00:30:54,920 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 10: Man, Every fight is different, styles are different, you know.

560
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,080
Speaker 10: I mean some people play big into it. I don't.

561
00:31:01,400 --> 00:31:03,440
Speaker 13: I just feel like every fight is different. I tell

562
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 13: people over and over and over again, but separates the best.

563
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 13: It's whoever's on that night. I mean, you see some

564
00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,320
Speaker 13: guys lose, some guys win, but very you know, I mean,

565
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,360
Speaker 13: it's just whoever's on that night. You see guys look good,

566
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 13: some guys look bad, but it doesn't mean they had

567
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 13: a bad training camp. Just been like, hey man, I

568
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:21,240
Speaker 13: wasn't in that night, you know, I didn't clock in

569
00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:23,960
Speaker 13: on time. And this just the way the sport goes.

570
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,040
Speaker 13: So that's why I take it. I take it like, yeah,

571
00:31:26,080 --> 00:31:28,760
Speaker 13: he lost the gist, sir, but he was he didn't

572
00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:31,040
Speaker 13: clock in on time for that fight. You know, same

573
00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 13: thing with me. Benna beat this. I had an off night.

574
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 13: Not taking anything away from those guys that they won.

575
00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 13: They you know, I mean they beat us. But at

576
00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,440
Speaker 13: the same time too, it's like, okay, you know it happens,

577
00:31:41,800 --> 00:31:42,360
Speaker 13: all right, how do you.

578
00:31:42,360 --> 00:31:43,320
Speaker 5: Guys match up together?

579
00:31:43,400 --> 00:31:43,720
Speaker 1: What are we?

580
00:31:43,960 --> 00:31:44,479
Speaker 10: What is uh?

581
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 5: What does this fight gonna look like inside their Faturday night?

582
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:48,960
Speaker 10: Man?

583
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:52,080
Speaker 13: If they see us fight, I mean they've seen him fight,

584
00:31:52,120 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 13: they seen me fight, So I think it's gonna be

585
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 13: a war.

586
00:31:54,760 --> 00:31:54,880
Speaker 6: Uh.

587
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 13: We both come in, both go forward, We don't back up,

588
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:02,200
Speaker 13: you know. So it's one of those things like it's

589
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:03,960
Speaker 13: gonna be a fun fight. And we're a flyweight, so

590
00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:06,360
Speaker 13: we got cardio for day, so we're gonna push that pace,

591
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 13: you know.

592
00:32:07,480 --> 00:32:09,840
Speaker 10: And uh, you know, I see myself winning.

593
00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 5: I looked.

594
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:14,920
Speaker 1: I just talked to the champ. He was shirtless, sunglasses on.

595
00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:17,760
Speaker 1: He's got their faith and the part and the red

596
00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: streak going through. The guy's got swagger for days. You're

597
00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:22,040
Speaker 1: good with him.

598
00:32:22,080 --> 00:32:24,640
Speaker 5: You guys ever crossed paths before? What's your history?

599
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:26,920
Speaker 10: No, you know I've seen him.

600
00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,520
Speaker 13: I seen him actually the night you fought, just sir,

601
00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,120
Speaker 13: because my training partner, Chiito Vera was fighting that night,

602
00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:35,320
Speaker 13: and I usually travel with him and just go support.

603
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 13: And I seen him nothing crazy, you know, I never

604
00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 13: like spoke to him nothing, And he has that swag.

605
00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:45,160
Speaker 13: I'm the worst person for swag. I dressing sweats, just

606
00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:47,440
Speaker 13: in sweats and sweaters all day and running shoes.

607
00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 10: Man, h you know that's good for him. Man, Some

608
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,720
Speaker 10: people liked it, some people don't, you know. I mean,

609
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:53,920
Speaker 10: I don't know. It doesn't bother me.

610
00:32:55,760 --> 00:33:00,000
Speaker 1: Is this a fair statement that Henry Sir Hudo said

611
00:33:00,360 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 1: the UFC flyweight division.

612
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:02,959
Speaker 5: It's not a fair statement.

613
00:33:05,080 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 10: Who knows, man, who knows? Honestly? Yeah, he beat TJ.

614
00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,600
Speaker 13: I mean there's a lot of things that went on

615
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 13: with the whole flyweight division, right they got rid of DJ.

616
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 10: They he beat TJ.

617
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,400
Speaker 13: Then they cut a whole bunch of guys out, a

618
00:33:19,400 --> 00:33:22,040
Speaker 13: whole bunch of new guys in Who knows he could

619
00:33:22,040 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 13: been a part of it, you know. For me, Like

620
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 13: I'm not trying to sound like a dude for a dick,

621
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 13: but for me, I was like, if twenty fives was cut,

622
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:35,440
Speaker 13: I felt like I'm big enough to go up to

623
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,920
Speaker 13: thirty fives. So it was like, Okay, I feel like

624
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 13: I still would have had a job sux with the

625
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,400
Speaker 13: guys that got cut in the smaller guys and stuff

626
00:33:42,440 --> 00:33:44,360
Speaker 13: like that. But for me, I felt I would have

627
00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,200
Speaker 13: been okay because you know, I would have been able

628
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,360

683
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 13: in general, like stuff doesn't really change for me. Like

684
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,560
Speaker 13: when I won my UC contract, people are like, oh, this,

685
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 13: you know, and I was like, man, I'm still the

686
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:10,480
Speaker 13: same person.

687
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 10: You know.

688
00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:14,480
Speaker 13: Maybe I got one hundred more followers on Instagram, but

689
00:36:14,520 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 13: I'm still the same person, you know. And then once

690
00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 13: I started winning in the UC, he was still like,

691
00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:21,240
Speaker 13: I'm still the same person. Nothing changes. I still dress

692
00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 13: in the same clothes, you know what I mean. I

693
00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 13: don't nothing really changes. I'm not I'm a country guy.

694
00:36:27,680 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 13: You know, I'm a small town kid and I as

695
00:36:31,160 --> 00:36:33,719
Speaker 13: crazy as it sounds, I don't like being on the spotlight.

696
00:36:33,840 --> 00:36:35,160
Speaker 10: I don't like taking pictures.

697
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:35,719
Speaker 5: I don't you know.

698
00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:37,400
Speaker 10: I'm more to myself.

699
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,359
Speaker 13: I got my close group of friends, so I really

700
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,960
Speaker 13: don't see anything changing too much for me.

701
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:42,640
Speaker 1: You know.

702
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:45,319
Speaker 10: I just like that small town vibe and I feel

703
00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:45,800
Speaker 10: like that's me.

711
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,080
Speaker 1: if you got to bring out the Mexican spirit, can

712
00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:07,600
Speaker 1: you stand up with this guy.

713
00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 5: For five four runs? Can he take your heat?

714
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:13,480

755
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,200
Speaker 1: but the odds makers are leading us to believe that

756
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 1: Valentino Hipchenko is unbeatable. How do you prepare knowing that

757
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,319
Speaker 1: they're not giving you a big shot?

758

761
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:11,799
Speaker 14: I hope to surprise everyone this Saturday. I don't think

762
00:40:12,040 --> 00:40:17,600
Speaker 14: Valentina is unbeatable. She's a very and smart opponent. But

763
00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,879
Speaker 14: I'm stepping into the octa gone to get that win.

764
00:40:21,840 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 14: I'll do whatever it takes, and I believe I'm fully

765
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,000

768
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:37,400

Speaker 1: It?

Speaker 14: Definitely is hard to see uh weaknesses and spaces and

773
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 14: Valentino's game. I do think that taking this fight to

774
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:11,520
Speaker 14: the ground is a good opportunity for me, but even standings,

775
00:41:11,680 --> 00:41:15,359
Speaker 14: just trying to take her out of her comfort zone

776
00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:20,839

784
00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 14: of us, and I think it will not only be

785
00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:10,880

786

787
00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:19,400
Speaker 14: a very disputed round after round kind of fight, but

788
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,400
Speaker 14: I'll show that I want this more than she wants.

789
00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,879
Speaker 1: It all right, Jennifer. Fighters always trying to play it cool.

790
00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,120
Speaker 1: They say this is just another fight, not a big deal,

791
00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,440
Speaker 1: but that can't be true. This is a championship. This

792
00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:35,359
Speaker 1: could be, you know, changing your life in one night.

793
00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:39,279
Speaker 1: How do you deal with those extra nerves and anxiety

794
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:43,120
Speaker 1: knowing that everything you worked for could come to fruition

795
00:42:43,280 --> 00:42:43,880
Speaker 1: on Saturday.

Speaker 11: passed du handle howch too.

799
00:43:19,760 --> 00:43:23,040
Speaker 14: I'm just really happy. It's been years of hard work

800
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,720
Speaker 14: and just knowing that I'm prepared, that makes me calmer

801
00:43:27,960 --> 00:43:30,560
Speaker 14: and that makes it easier to get there. I know

802
00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:34,319
Speaker 14: that this isn't just another fight. This is the fight

803
00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:38,560

00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:41,360
Speaker 14: I worked really hard for for a lot of years

805
00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,560
Speaker 14: to get here. So that's what makes me calmer and

806
00:43:44,840 --> 00:43:46,800
Speaker 14: just gets me ready for Saturday.

807
00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:50,120
Speaker 1: In the past couple of months, we saw in your

808
00:43:50,200 --> 00:43:53,600
Speaker 1: division a big wins from Lauren Murphy. She said she's

809
00:43:53,719 --> 00:43:56,400
Speaker 1: more deserving for a title shot. She wanted you to

810
00:43:56,480 --> 00:43:59,160
Speaker 1: get pulled out and her to go in. When you

811
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:00,840
Speaker 1: watch that, what was your reaction?

812
00:44:03,120 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 11: GMENTA is passive, just as this.

813
00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:25,279
Speaker 14: Each of us is living a different moment, and it's

814
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,560
Speaker 14: where they deserve to be. I think I deserve to

815
00:44:28,640 --> 00:44:32,120
Speaker 14: be here, and I paid my way to get here.

816
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,759
Speaker 14: Maybe in the future she will get her chance, but

817
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 14: now it's my time, and I deserve to be here.

818

Speaker 1: American fans may not They may know you as the fighter,

819

00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:48,600
