15
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Luke. So happy to be back at it

16
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,200
Speaker 1: here on this hump day, right, because that's what we do.

17
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Luke, this is what it's

18
00:00:58,360 --> 00:00:58,880
Speaker 1: all about.

19
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: What is your what is your very terrible shirt?

20
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 1: It's an old school wrestling Zach Zach Ryder's shirt. You know,

21
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: I still woo woo oo, you know it. But that

22
00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: was pretty you know if you're on an initiated Boy,

23
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 1: was that lame? Probably just as lame if you're initiated.

24
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: But Luke, have you been following the McMahon family drama

25
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 1: of the last twenty four hours? I don't know.

26
00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: I gotta tell you, I'm actually pretty interested in this news.

27
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 3: My understanding is this, So Vince got booted because he

28
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 3: you know, he sexually harassed a bunch of people, or

29
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 3: you know, paid a bunch of people to go away

30
00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 3: for sexual misconduct.

31
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,400
Speaker 2: Let's say he gets booted, his kids.

32
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,479
Speaker 3: Take over, and then like a couple of months later,

33
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,880
Speaker 3: he finds his way into the board of directors, puts

34
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 3: himself in charge, changes bylaws, and then sells the company

35
00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 3: to the Saudis, and then his daughter quits.

36
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 2: Did I get that?

37
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 3: I gotta tell you that is like talking about not

38
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: giving a fuck. Vince McMahon truly believes like scandal is

39
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: merely a function of time, wait till enough of it

40
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 3: goes away, and I'm just gonna be right back right

41
00:01:59,200 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 3: something like that.

42
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, some of that got aggressively reported and

43
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: it doesn't seem to be fully true from the idea

44
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,440
Speaker 1: of like is a sale imminent, but the Saudi Arabian

45
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 1: government is a a hefty suitor at the moment. But yeah,

46
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 1: it's like it's like Vince saying, you know, if we're

47
00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: going down, you know, I'm going to direct it right

48
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: toward that ditch and do it my way. I mean,

49
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:21,320
Speaker 1: I guess we could. You know, do you go like

50
00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 1: this to the captain for staying on the ship as

51
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 1: it as it goes down? Look, or he's trying to

52
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: make it go down, you know what I mean? Or

53
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: maybe not? Maybe how much of a.

54
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,880
Speaker 2: How much of a number two in the industry is aew? Like?

55
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 2: How big are they are?

56
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,320
Speaker 3: They like belletsworp is plus PFL combined or something?

57
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, certainly, certainly they're not. They're not quite looking

58
00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: eyeball to eyeball, But it's getting closer from you know

59
00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:43,799
Speaker 1: what I hear. Obviously I don't. I don't watch the

60
00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 1: last couple of years, you know, anywhere, and I don't

61
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,600
Speaker 1: watch it all. But that's sort of the perception that

62
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 1: I get. But damn, it's like, I mean, he may not.

63
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 1: This just may be like the maniacal power move to

64
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: take it private and sell it so he could be

65
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 1: back in power creatively. Either way, it's just it's weird, man.

66
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:03,359
Speaker 1: But that's that's the history of that family. Would you

67
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:08,360
Speaker 1: say Shakespeare and Luke are more like like it's more.

68
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: Like the the Did you watch that HBO show Succession?

69
00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I did. I watched the first season or

70
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 1: that or I'm going to change my glasses.

71
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: It's a little like that.

72
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is. It is.

73
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 3: Anyway, we'll talk a little bit actually about that later

74
00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 3: on in the show as it relates. There is a

75
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:26,400
Speaker 3: bit of MMA overlap because there was some discussion that

76
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,079
Speaker 3: they were going to be bought up by wm ME.

77
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,920
Speaker 3: They're not, but something to think about going forward. We

78
00:03:31,919 --> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 3: have a lot to get today. We are going to

79
00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,040

Speaker 1: before they're gone, because our aim is to sell that

158
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 1: shit out, all right, it's like Metallica after cutting their hair.

159
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: Luke right, it's like bon Jovi when he went country, right,

160
00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just a full on sellout. Yeah, that's

161
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:50,160
Speaker 1: what we're going after.

162
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,159
Speaker 2: Metallica did not get better when they cut their hair.

163
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, it doesn't. I mean, look at Samson. Historically, it

164
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: doesn't usually go your way.

165
00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 2: Right.

166
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,800
Speaker 3: The problem is if you don't cut your hair and

167
00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,960
Speaker 3: you just leave it, like Dave Mustain, you just end

168
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 3: up looking like, you know, people just can't tell if

169
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 3: you're coming or going at that point.

170
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, you look like Cody McKenzie. You're like like a

171
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,320
Speaker 1: a grifter, you know, my one of my favorite. I

172
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: mean that that, you know, you know what I'm going

173
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: with that, yeh.

174
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 2: Drifter slash drifter slash dawser.

175
00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 3: You just look like a big dowser when you grow

176
00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:22,720
Speaker 3: your hair out and you're sixty two, you know what

177
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 3: I mean, you just got to be at that point.

178
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:27,760
Speaker 2: Whatever. But all right, neither here nor there. Bceel though.

179
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 2: Oh and then morning Combat at gmail dot com. Plus

180
00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: we'll do fan subs today.

181
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, reach out to Mikey say hi, all right.

182
00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 2: You know, hi to Mikey. All right, be see if

183
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 2: you're ready get this going. Let's talk a little bit

184
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 2: about this UFC card.

185
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 3: This will be UFC Vegas sixty seven aka UFC Fight

186
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 3: Night mvo versus Strickland. That's got some other naming conventions

187
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 3: as well. Now, if you're just joining us and you

188
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 3: met or you were a heard Monday show, we had

189
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 3: told you that the coming main event was going to

190
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:56,520
Speaker 3: be Kelvin Gastolom taking on NASA Ordine, and it turns

191
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 3: out that's not the case. Uh Sean Strickland is filling

192
00:07:59,880 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 3: in even though he just fought the last card of

193
00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:07,360
Speaker 3: twenty twenty two against Jared Cannoneer because Gastolm is out.

194
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:09,920
Speaker 3: I believe we have some tweet to this effect. Gaslam

195
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 3: had a tooth issue where you had to get it.

196
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,160
Speaker 3: I can you, Well, this is the.

197
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,000
Speaker 2: Connor thing about it.

198
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 3: If you see you want to set this up for us,

199
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:17,760
Speaker 3: because I know this is a passionate issue for you.

200
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,760
Speaker 1: Well what mouth source not so much. But it was

201
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,280
Speaker 1: tough to see Gasolom who showed this picture to prove

202
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:25,400
Speaker 1: what happened to him. But then you see the quote

203
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 1: tweet on Instagram. However, you say it from Connor who

204
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 1: said absolute scruff. This thing is that's full on staff

205
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 1: infection all over his effing face, a full effing hole. OMG.

206
00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: And it's his second time to enter, to attempt to

207
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 1: enter competition like this, what the f cleaner mats? Wash yourself,

208
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: blah blah blah, go to the doctor, Luke. Unfortunate because

209
00:08:46,040 --> 00:08:49,199
Speaker 1: this was a big This was a big test for Gasolom.

210
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,040
Speaker 1: It wasn't winn or go home. It might have been

211
00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:52,880
Speaker 1: how did you know what's the best way to not

212
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: go home? Luke? Not fight? I guess no, no, seriously,

213
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: it's a tough turn. He would have thought if he could,

214
00:08:57,160 --> 00:08:58,880
Speaker 1: you know. Of course he came out publicly and said

215
00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 1: like man, I would in you know, the best camp

216
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:03,880
Speaker 1: in my life. But you basically said it looked that

217
00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: he would, you know, no stone left unturned. He was

218
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: all in. So to see him have to step aside,

219
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 1: even with Connor Dunky on him. What's Connor looking for

220
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: people coming like people on rough times that he might

221
00:09:14,280 --> 00:09:16,080
Speaker 1: be able to fight Luke? Or is he just a

222
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 1: general troll right here?

223
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:19,440
Speaker 2: Probably just being a general troll.

224
00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 3: Although I did see some other pictures, some other fight

225
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 3: camps where gas Lim had some Matt cleanliness issues, or

226
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Speaker 3: I should say appeared to have some Matt cleanliness issues.

227
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:31,120
Speaker 2: Not great, not great.

228
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:34,080
Speaker 1: A dirty sport, Luke, it's a dirty ass sport in

229
00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:34,880
Speaker 1: more than one way.

230
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,720
Speaker 3: MMA didn't care about COVID, but they do care about MRSA.

231
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,720
Speaker 3: Definitely care about MRSA. And by the way, MRSA is serious,

232
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:46,040
Speaker 3: like you can absolutely wreck you kill you. I think

233
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 3: it permanently changed King Moe's career because he had a

234
00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:51,199
Speaker 3: very severe bout with it. So I'm not saying I

235
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 3: said anything to to look look past. I'm making a

236
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,320
Speaker 3: stupid joke, but nevertheless, it can be quite serious and

237
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,960
Speaker 3: so folks do take it seriously. But in any case, now,

238
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 3: so it's Nesserdine Imovov, who is a minus one fifteen

239
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 3: to Sean Strickland's minus one oh five BC. Is this

240
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 3: a Is this change an opponent for Imovov? Is it

241
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,480
Speaker 3: good for him? Is it bad for him? In terms

242
00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:16,839
Speaker 3: of in yourview, stylistic matchups.

243
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: I think it's potentially a harder fight for him, but

244
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: I don't think it's Yeah, yeah, for sure, But you know,

245
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 1: I always reserve the right The gueslam's gonna you know,

246
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,200
Speaker 1: go back into like a B plus A minus mode

247
00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:29,880
Speaker 1: and just you know, fight for his life there to

248
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 1: keep the job. But I think it's in him still.

249
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: But this matchup still a hell of a good one.

250
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,680
Speaker 1: I think when you look at it, is it is

251
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,440
Speaker 1: it a harder fight for Imovov? Yes, I think it

252
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: also potentially is you know, is worth more obviously from

253
00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:43,480
Speaker 1: the standpoint of of how quickly he could move up

254
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:45,760
Speaker 1: with a win here. But how about you know, UFC

255
00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:48,840
Speaker 1: given Sean Strickland a chance to like go all in

256
00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 1: double down, whatever poker analogy you want here. The two

257
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:54,840
Speaker 1: straight losses were against super elite competition. You know, lost

258
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 1: my split decision to canadon ere and a big one

259
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,840
Speaker 1: that was him going right back to the well to

260
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 1: try to stay in this title pit. Sure this is

261
00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,640
Speaker 1: the best way to just reverse recent history and get

262
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 1: right back in a big spot. It's not an easy fight.

263
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,440
Speaker 1: I'm very curious to hear what the what the initial

264
00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,199
Speaker 1: odds were, Luke after this was announced. But you know, Strickland,

265
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,000
Speaker 1: who fought well against Canon are really just you know,

266
00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,280
Speaker 1: was unable to make the right adjustments to get a

267
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: clear win there. Uh, He's got a chance, Luke, to

268
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:23,640
Speaker 1: be right back in there. You know, the UFC loves

269
00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 1: to reward this type of behavior and activity, So it's

270
00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: a good move for Strickland, it really is. But you know,

271
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,960
Speaker 1: does this change that that Imovov's the guy coming up

272
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,840
Speaker 1: making moves. You know, he's the hot quotion of the

273
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,080
Speaker 1: moment here, Luke, I'm looking forward to see, you know,

274
00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: who shows up here in what kind of fight we get.

275
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:43,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

276
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: By the way, speaking of who's not listening, I did

277
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,240
Speaker 3: read the odds to you when I told you who

278
00:11:47,240 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 3: the fight was. It's minus one fifteen for IV minus

279
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 3: one oh five for Strickland, so basically a pick them.

280
00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:54,079
Speaker 1: You say that in English and I missed it.

281
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 2: Luke, I did. I did say it in the King's English.

282
00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,760
Speaker 1: I believe it, all right, fair play.

283
00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:02,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, But here's the point point in thinking about this fight.

284
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 3: I actually think it's a much harder fight, and it's

285
00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 3: a much more stylistically bad fight for him Avolve personally right,

286
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:09,720
Speaker 3: for a couple of reasons. If you look at the

287
00:12:09,720 --> 00:12:12,760
Speaker 3: way he's got two finishes in the UFC, I believe

288
00:12:12,760 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 3: both of them came on the ground. Now, he is

289
00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,880
Speaker 3: much more striker than a ground specialist. But like in

290
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 3: the Ian Heinish fight. He can go for takedowns off

291
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:22,520
Speaker 3: of like someone else's failed takedown.

292
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 2: In the Shabazian fight, he was able to use guillotines

293
00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:27,840
Speaker 2: and other stuff to reverse position or get on top

294
00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: or whatever he needed to do. He was pretty clever

295
00:12:30,440 --> 00:12:30,680
Speaker 2: with it.

296
00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:34,160
Speaker 3: So it's not like he can't play the dozens, so

297
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,600
Speaker 3: to speak, on the ground. But he's just much more

298
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:38,560
Speaker 3: of a striker. But there's two things that really give

299
00:12:38,600 --> 00:12:42,280
Speaker 3: you some pause. Number one, not great about checking leg kicks,

300
00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,680
Speaker 3: not great. Kind of lets people get away with it.

301
00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:46,920
Speaker 3: Got but Buckley lost the fight. But Buckley got away

302
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 3: with it, even to a degree heinisch got away with it.

303
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 3: Guys kind of get away with it a little bit

304
00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 3: with him. He doesn't make a big effort at checking

305
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:55,600
Speaker 3: against the guy like Sean Strickland, where that thing is

306
00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:59,240
Speaker 3: probing constantly and it's active constantly, and it sets up

307
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 3: other four portions of his offense. That doesn't that doesn't

308
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 3: seem like a great setup necessarily for Imavov. The other

309
00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 3: part is, you know we saw this in many of

310
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:10,679
Speaker 3: his fights. Sean Strickland is hard to hit clean. Now

311
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:13,640
Speaker 3: you're like, oh, well, what Parira did it? Yes, Pereira

312
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 3: did it, but like other guys have had three even

313
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,640
Speaker 3: cannoneer five rounds and they just have a really hard

314
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:20,640
Speaker 3: time getting to him.

315
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,840
Speaker 2: A guy like Imavov does bring the fight to his opponent.

316
00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 2: That part is real.

317
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 3: And if you can get Strickland backed up against the fence,

318
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,000
Speaker 3: b see, hey, anything's possible because he is very, very,

319
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 3: very gifted and aggressive in those spots. But for a

320
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:35,960
Speaker 3: guy who's hard to hit, who's hard to back up,

321
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:39,640
Speaker 3: who might be active with the leg kicks, it just

322
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:41,680
Speaker 3: seems like that's gonna be a bit of an uphill climb.

323
00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,600
Speaker 3: Plus if he gassed in the Buckley fight, and this

324
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:46,080
Speaker 3: is gonna be a I don't know if it's gonna

325
00:13:46,080 --> 00:13:47,559
Speaker 3: be three or five rounds, but assuming it's gonna be

326
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 3: five rounds, that also goes in Strickland's favor.

327
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 1: So it's a time I mean, the short turnaround. I

328
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 1: have no fear from the way Strickland is wired. You know,

329
00:13:57,559 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 1: barring any potential injury here that this doesn't bet. This

330
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: may be to fit him altogether, lu because he's fresh,

331
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,120
Speaker 1: he's he's just gone the five round distance in a

332
00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: fight that you know, he felt like he had an

333
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: argument in and fought well. So yeah, very tough fight,

334
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: but it does raise the stakes too for him Abov.

335
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,080
Speaker 1: So I want to look. I want to see if

336
00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:14,080
Speaker 1: he is that good. That's the key part of it.

337
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,640
Speaker 1: But it'll be interesting to see who can bring this

338
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 1: fight to the ground or if it does go there looting.

339
00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's another part too.

340
00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,200
Speaker 3: Strickland's got Strickland's got very good takedown de fence, right,

341
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:27,840
Speaker 3: He's probably not going to go for it there. And

342
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: I just got to say too, like with Strickland, that's

343
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 3: the kind of guy the UFC really wants. In many ways,

344
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 3: Strickland is you know, I don't know about ideal UFC fighter,

345
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 3: but he's very good. Now, he's not the most exciting,

346
00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,040
Speaker 3: I think that's also fair to say, but he's very talented.

347
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:46,080
Speaker 3: He's highly ranked, and he can go the distance, he

348
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:50,400
Speaker 3: makes weight, and more importantly, he'll just say yes pretty quickly. Now,

349
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:52,480
Speaker 3: this obviously is a bit of a different circumstance because

350
00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:54,160
Speaker 3: he I think if you looked at what he put

351
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:57,200
Speaker 3: on social media after his lost to cannon Ear, it

352
00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,240
Speaker 3: looked like he had a very bad taste in his

353
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,440
Speaker 3: mouth regards to the judging or just feeling like something

354
00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,400
Speaker 3: got away from him when it shouldn't have. So he

355
00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 3: looks like he wants to get one back right away,

356
00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:07,800
Speaker 3: which by the way, is not advisable either.

357
00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 2: Like in Imovov's favor.

358
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 3: If Strictlnes is getting this back just to right or

359
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 3: perceived wrong and he's doing it too quickly, that will

360
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,840
Speaker 3: blow up, or at least the chance of that blowing

361
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:18,400
Speaker 3: up in his face goes up. But in general, what

362
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 3: they want are fighters who make sure that they can

363
00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 3: be good and then they're ready and they can make weight.

364
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 3: But more importantly that when the trains leave the station,

365
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 3: they're part of that process. That they don't get in

366
00:15:29,520 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 3: the way of it. They facilitate it, so to get

367
00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 3: a ranked guy on very last minute notice. For Imovov, however,

368
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,200
Speaker 3: you may like his style or not, and his readiness,

369
00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:43,360
Speaker 3: the UFC loves that kind of thing. He's doing himself

370
00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 3: some favors here with the brass I guarantee it, yeah.

371
00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 1: No question. But Luke, I feel like you were very

372
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: quick there to label Sean Strickland as as an unexciting fighter.

373
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,000
Speaker 1: I think that's slowly changing, or maybe it's just my

374
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 1: entertainment palate. Now, look the character Sean Strickland. I think

375
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:02,920
Speaker 1: is largely cringe and sometimes deplorable, And I get that's

376
00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 1: the purpose of it. It's not like I don't see

377
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,680
Speaker 1: the angles. But you know, I could do without a

378
00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 1: lot of the stuff he says into a microphone. But

379
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,359
Speaker 1: you know, I feel like it is a constant, persistent,

380
00:16:12,840 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 1: high volume striking style. He's constantly moving forward. It can

381
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,560
Speaker 1: be situationally does need the right opponent to bring that

382
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:22,240
Speaker 1: out of him to a certain degree. But did you

383
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,280
Speaker 1: Were you not entertained against Cannon? Are? I guess it's

384
00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: my question.

385
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:26,680
Speaker 2: No, I was not. I didn't think it was a

386
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,560
Speaker 2: bad fight. But was I entertained?

387
00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:28,680
Speaker 1: No?

388
00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 2: I was not entertained. I did not find it entertaining.

389
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: But that doesn't mean I don't think it's high level.

390
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,640
Speaker 3: That doesn't mean I don't have respect for their abilities.

391
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,400
Speaker 3: I mean, there's lots of ways to enjoy a fight.

392
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,240
Speaker 3: Sometimes you just want to see the chest of it all,

393
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:43,200
Speaker 3: and in that sense, there is something to take from it.

394
00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:46,200
Speaker 2: But like, was it fun? No, it was not fun

395
00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:48,680
Speaker 2: at all. I did not have fun watching that contest.

396
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean I'm not looking for you to, you know,

397
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:55,280
Speaker 1: to pitch a tent here, Luke. But I you know

398
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 1: there was there's a middle ground I think where you

399
00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,680
Speaker 1: could lie in where you know there was too highly

400
00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,920
Speaker 1: skilled guys in a very important fight, and there were

401
00:17:02,360 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 1: a fighting with edge and purpose and you know it's

402
00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,840
Speaker 1: a little manly on there, Luke. So maybe that doesn't

403
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,080
Speaker 1: move here. But that's fine, Luke, different strokes.

404
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:12,320
Speaker 3: Right again, it's I think you can have respect for

405
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,520
Speaker 3: the abilities and the accomplishments that brought them to to

406
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 3: that moment and then listen, you don't want to fuck

407
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 3: up against Cannonear he is blinding power, and against the

408
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:23,360
Speaker 3: guy like Sean Strickland, if you let him start working

409
00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 3: in rhythm, it will be.

410
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:25,439
Speaker 2: A problem for you.

411
00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:29,479
Speaker 3: It takes high level ability to negate or get around

412
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,800
Speaker 3: that in the case of either Cannoneer or Strickland. And

413
00:17:32,080 --> 00:17:35,000
Speaker 3: I have genuine respect for that. I mean that very sincerely.

414
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,440
Speaker 3: Like that is a very very difficult thing to do.

415
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 3: But if we're going to start ascribing entertainment value to it,

416
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 3: I can separate, or at least it doesn't. There isn't

417
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,840
Speaker 3: always complete overlap between the respect I can confer on

418
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 3: someone or some event and have it be that's a

419
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,919
Speaker 3: word that's synonymous for its entertainment value. There was not

420
00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 3: much entertainment value to it. There was a lot of

421
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:00,840
Speaker 3: high level ability being showcased, and it's okay to say

422
00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 3: we can separate the two, although I do sometimes grant

423
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 3: you'll do you will get entertaining with high level, and

424
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 3: then people will still knock it down a peg and

425
00:18:07,800 --> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 3: say it was it wasn't entertaining. I think this is

426
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,360
Speaker 3: a level below that in terms of its entertainment question,

427
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 3: it was very low for me.

428
00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,200
Speaker 1: Thank you for that very detailed response, Luke. I have

429
00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,960
Speaker 1: come to know you at an even deeper level than

430
00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:24,480
Speaker 1: I and I did setting that up. Wow, all right, No, yeah, whatever, Luke.

431
00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:28,640
Speaker 1: But when you when you look at at I mean,

432
00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 1: what area do you think im Avov has the potential

433
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 1: to wow you the most in? Because he's got to

434
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:35,600
Speaker 1: raise his game in this fight. And I'm not asking

435
00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 1: to break down how he wins it necessarily, but the clinch,

436
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:40,520
Speaker 1: he he.

437
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 3: Does a lot of his work in the clinch. Obviously

438
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,199
Speaker 3: does a lot of it on the outside, but the

439
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:48,879
Speaker 3: outside is where I think Strickland's going to have. On

440
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,560
Speaker 3: the outside is where Strickland will give him in all

441
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 3: likelihood the most amount of problems because that's where Strickland

442
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,919
Speaker 3: does a lot of his best work as well, in

443
00:18:57,000 --> 00:18:59,640
Speaker 3: the clinch. And by the way, again, Strickland has good

444
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,359
Speaker 3: take down defense. He's got good defense, I think in

445
00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 3: those positions. More generally, I think it would be interesting

446
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 3: to see if to what extent Imovov can back him

447
00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 3: up and then fire knees in close range do something

448
00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 3: in that really tight space to mix it all up

449
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:18,880
Speaker 3: to keep a guy like Sean Strickland off balance. Also,

450
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,240
Speaker 3: I think if you saw Strickland really getting his back

451
00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: up against defense continuously.

452
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,119
Speaker 2: That would be a really good sign for Imvov. So

453
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 2: it's going to be a big test.

454
00:19:26,320 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 3: I also think of Strickland's footwork, right and his ability

455
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 3: to capture center ring general you know, they call it

456
00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:35,040
Speaker 3: ring but in cage cage generalship, that kind of a thing.

457
00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:37,119
Speaker 3: It's a it's a big test for Sean Strickland. It's

458
00:19:37,160 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 3: not easy. It just seems like he's got exactly the

459
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,000
Speaker 3: kind of style built for five rounds, assuming it goes

460
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Speaker 3: that long. To Negate like, he just he's very good

461
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 3: at being a bomb diffuser, not against the very best guy, right,

462
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,520
Speaker 3: not against the champion fair enough, but against everyone sub

463
00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 3: level to that, he's very good at unplugging all the

464
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,440
Speaker 3: things that make their offense work, especially in the stand

465
00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,359
Speaker 3: up department. You might se some evidence of that, unless

466
00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,359
Speaker 3: he's backed up and forced him to close range.

467
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: I think so yeah, looking forward to this one. This

468
00:20:06,880 --> 00:20:09,880
Speaker 1: is at the Apex, and I know we have more

469
00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 1: topics related to Dana, but just all I want is

470
00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,200
Speaker 1: yes or no? Does Dane to show up to this card?

471
00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,120
Speaker 2: Yes? I think he does.

472
00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 3: I think I think he's trying to make a show

473
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:26,439
Speaker 3: that like nothing, Yeah, Tachi Palace two point zero, Like

474
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:28,760
Speaker 3: I'm gonna ignore everything and just do what I want,

475
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:31,400
Speaker 3: you know, all right? In your main event, dan Ega,

476
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 3: we talked about this previously. Dan Ega taken on Damon Jackson,

477
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 3: Dany Gay a guy who tasted the top and had

478
00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,159
Speaker 3: some tough setbacks, but still very good. I guess the

479
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,359
Speaker 3: guy like Damon Jackson who was kind of an afterthought,

480
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:46,280
Speaker 3: who has just flatly reasserted himself. Danny GAYBC a minus

481
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,960
Speaker 3: one twenty five favorite, Damon Jackson just plus one oh five.

482
00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:53,080
Speaker 3: Very very close odds the odds makers, it seems like

483
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 3: slightly leaning towards Ega. I think he has fought and

484
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 3: defeated better guys.

485
00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,399
Speaker 2: B see your level of interest in this contest and

486
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,800
Speaker 2: two any particular way you think they at least two

487
00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:02,480
Speaker 2: are sized up.

488
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:04,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, look, my interest is big. This is going to

489
00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:08,119
Speaker 1: be action fight. Danny Gay typically makes that happen. But

490
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,800
Speaker 1: you mentioned it, that streak that Damon Jackson is on

491
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:16,000
Speaker 1: four straight since the first round punch knockout loss via

492
00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: single punch to Ilio Tuporia, and you know he's stopping people.

493
00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:23,800
Speaker 1: We saw the Pat Sabattini finish. Look him as a

494
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:26,920
Speaker 1: plus money right now. I like it. I like hot

495
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: fighters in the moment sometimes guys that are riding a

496
00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: good field of momentum and are willing to go after it.

497
00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,159
Speaker 1: And I think Egay is always going to be a

498
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:38,080
Speaker 1: tough out, but I do feel like he peaked within

499
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: that initial launch in twenty twenty, when you know there

500
00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:43,840
Speaker 1: were some opportunists who were able to keep fighting regularly

501
00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:45,560
Speaker 1: and take big chances and come after it. I think

502
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 1: he made some big moves and you saw some really

503
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,160
Speaker 1: good performances against big names, but I always question, at

504
00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,680
Speaker 1: his size, with that style, with not being necessarily consistent finisher,

505
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,840
Speaker 1: can that continue to level up in that regard. I

506
00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 1: think this is a great opportunity for Damon Jackson to

507
00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,919
Speaker 1: surprise a lot of us and show us that he

508
00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: might be even better that we think.

509
00:22:05,600 --> 00:22:08,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just as a recap like how we

510
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:11,800
Speaker 3: got here with Dan Egay. So since losing to Julio

511
00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 3: Arse back in twenty eighteen, he went on a one two, three, four,

512
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:18,080
Speaker 3: five six fight winning streak that culminated with a win

513
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,480
Speaker 3: over Edson Barboza, fought Calvin Cator, didn't go his way,

514
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 3: went the distance, wasn't a huge like ass kicking, but

515
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,119
Speaker 3: he was outclassed. Rebounded with a vicious stoppage of Gavin Tucker.

516
00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,199
Speaker 3: But the NBC he got to like the deeper end

517
00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 3: of the division again, loses to Chan Sung Jung via decision,

518
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,520
Speaker 3: loses to Josh Emmett via decision. That's a tough fight,

519
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:39,040
Speaker 3: and then loses to Movsar and I'm gonna mispronounce his

520
00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 3: name Ev Looev, the guy who's an absolute effing hammer.

521
00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:45,480
Speaker 3: So in all of these cases, it's like, dude, he

522
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,359
Speaker 3: was fighting the very top tier or pretty close to it. Obviously,

523
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:50,200
Speaker 3: I Bolkonovski would be the very top tier, but something

524
00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 3: approximating it, and he's hard to finish. They couldn't put

525
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:57,000
Speaker 3: him away right, neither Cater nor Jung, nor Emmitt nor

526
00:22:57,480 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 3: ev Looev. But nevertheless found himself wanting Damon Jackson. A

527
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:03,560
Speaker 3: guy who's been kind of all over the place a

528
00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 3: little bit, was in the PFL for a time in LFA.

529
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:06,959
Speaker 2: Here he is.

530
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 3: Of course, he had fought in UFC previously, returns to UFC.

531
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,199
Speaker 3: It'll later join in his career.

532
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:11,640
Speaker 2: Now.

533
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,439
Speaker 3: He did get dusted off by elliotts Aportia in twenty twenty,

534
00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,400
Speaker 3: but we know, like, okay, what does that mean? Elliotsaporto

535
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 3: is a fucking hammer since then beats Charles ros up

536
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:24,000
Speaker 3: cumwella Kirk Daniel Argetta and then his biggest win in

537
00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:27,040
Speaker 3: my judgment, which he got inside of a round against

538
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,639
Speaker 3: Pat Sabatini. That's a very nice win which he got

539
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:32,160
Speaker 3: via ground and pounds. So he is really a different

540
00:23:32,200 --> 00:23:34,840
Speaker 3: fighter this time than he was the last time. I

541
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:35,960
Speaker 3: think it's fair to say.

542
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, I mean, I don't like the trend

543
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,480
Speaker 1: that Egay's going down where it looks like he's a

544
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,680
Speaker 1: really tough out to anybody who's very good or on

545
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:48,960
Speaker 1: their way to becoming it. But you know, there seems

546
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,720
Speaker 1: to be a ceiling without being a consistent finishing threat.

547
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,359
Speaker 1: Luke that to get over the top against some of

548
00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,239
Speaker 1: these guys. He still may have the savviness in the

549
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,680
Speaker 1: certain want and hunger this time around because he needs

550
00:23:58,680 --> 00:24:00,680
Speaker 1: this win. So you know that may that may lift

551
00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 1: him to another level. I do expect this fight to

552
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:05,320
Speaker 1: be close. But man, big opportunity for Jackson to come

553
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,400
Speaker 1: to come, you know, to come remind people, all right,

554
00:24:09,480 --> 00:24:11,320
Speaker 1: Luke to come make new fans.

555
00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:15,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and by this is this is come original.

556
00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:17,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's everything we do.

557
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 2: We've got a yeah. Yeah.

558
00:24:18,240 --> 00:24:21,560
Speaker 3: For Damon Jackson, he has a slightly negative striking differential.

559
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 3: Uh He lands two point sixty five per minute, absorbs

560
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,760
Speaker 3: two point eight three, so it is negative but just barely.

561
00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,160
Speaker 3: But defense not fifty percent. I guess that's okay. Accuracy

562
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 3: forty one percent. EGA is slightly positive in his differential

563
00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,520
Speaker 3: striking three point eight to two three point five six,

564
00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,359
Speaker 3: the big one that's gonna get really tested BC And

565
00:24:41,400 --> 00:24:43,600
Speaker 3: this is the part where it gets interesting. For Damon Jackson.

566
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:47,120
Speaker 3: He averages per fifteen minutes two point six to two takedowns,

567
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,639
Speaker 3: so almost one around, not quite but almost one around.

568
00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 3: Take Down accuracy is low, but that's a misleading stat

569
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,159
Speaker 3: take down defense forty two percent, so he can be

570
00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:57,560
Speaker 3: taken down, goes for submissions constantly two point one.

571
00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,880
Speaker 2: Here's the thing. The takedown defense for Dan Eag.

572
00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,119
Speaker 3: Now it's fifty one percent against guys who we know

573
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,560
Speaker 3: to this point to be better than Damon Jackson. But

574
00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:10,120
Speaker 3: Damon Jackson's relentlessness with it, how many he goes for

575
00:25:10,640 --> 00:25:12,280
Speaker 3: might be the difference maker. And the thing is this,

576
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 3: Danny Gay is hard to hurt and hard to finish

577
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,160
Speaker 3: on the ground. All those guys I mentioned ev lof Cater,

578
00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,320
Speaker 3: they none of those guys Korean zombie Josh, none of

579
00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:22,440
Speaker 3: them could do it because he is a black boat

580
00:25:22,480 --> 00:25:24,840
Speaker 3: on there and he can keep himself safe underneath even

581
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:27,320
Speaker 3: if he's not necessarily a threat from guard. I think

582
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:29,200
Speaker 3: that's gonna be where the fight is one or lost.

583
00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:32,199
Speaker 3: How often is Jackson able to get the takedown? How

584
00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:35,119
Speaker 3: much time is spent with EGA defending the takedown? And

585
00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:37,840
Speaker 3: if he gets the takedown, that is Damon Jackson to

586
00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 3: what extent is Egay fighting him from guard. That's something

587
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,359
Speaker 3: you've seen where look don't get me wrong. Ega doesn't

588
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:47,320
Speaker 3: have a bad guard, not by any stretch of the imagination.

589
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,880
Speaker 3: But it's hard to submit a very good fighter off

590
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,160
Speaker 3: of your back in modern mma. If they have taken

591
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:55,199
Speaker 3: you down, they're not hurt or anything, they're kind of

592
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,800
Speaker 3: fresh and you're just working from underneath. It's just a

593
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,800
Speaker 3: low percentage way to fight someone, no matter how good

594
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 3: you are. So that to me is going to be

595
00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 3: the central tension in that fight. That's what I'm looking for.

596
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:07,399
Speaker 3: But if it stays on the feet, dan Ega should

597
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:07,920
Speaker 3: win this one.

598
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,560
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's look, he's got the certain intangibles

599
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:14,640
Speaker 1: jack dep Hi. You know, he goes after it. He's

600
00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,080
Speaker 1: gonna max out his potential within a fight to have

601
00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,400
Speaker 1: a chance to win it. I think that sometimes when

602
00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,120
Speaker 1: it is a back and forth and becomes a war,

603
00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,639
Speaker 1: that's where he thrives. So let's see if Jackson can

604
00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: swim on this level. Let's do that. Luke, you showed

605
00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: some love to the idea of what this Kaitlyn Vieira

606
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,840
Speaker 1: Raquel Pennington fight means to the Bannamway Division. Two big

607
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: names here, and I think I wanted to poo poo

608
00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: that in the moment is Raquel Pennington on the sneakiest

609
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,440
Speaker 1: four fight win streak that anyone's been on in a while. Look,

610
00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,760
Speaker 1: because you look at the potential stakes of this fight

611
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 1: with Kaitlyn viea bouncing back with two big wins over

612
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 1: Mischa Tate in Holly Holm in a close decision. But still,

613
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:54,359
Speaker 1: I mean, is this like a number one contender about

614
00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,760
Speaker 1: in this division which is so thin all the time?

615
00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:01,320
Speaker 2: Dude, her resurgence is incredible. I'm so glad you pointed

616
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:05,120
Speaker 2: that out because it's been hard fought. And to your point,

617
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,080
Speaker 2: is it the sneakiest winning streak right now happening in

618
00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: UFC among any kind of ranked fighter. The answer has

619
00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:14,000
Speaker 2: to be yes. Remember something we're not even talking about

620
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 2: outside the cage injuries. Remember she had like a really

621
00:27:16,520 --> 00:27:19,159
Speaker 2: really terrible about with COVID, and she had that that

622
00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,679
Speaker 2: I think it was the skiing or the snowboarding or

623
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:24,800
Speaker 2: the ATV accident that completely messed her up. Like there's

624
00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:28,040
Speaker 2: all that stuff. Put that just to the side for

625
00:27:28,080 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 2: a moment.

626
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:30,000
Speaker 3: She had a great wind streak where she beat by

627
00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,840
Speaker 3: the way, she beat Justs gondrag Bechkoheya and Misha Tate

628
00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,880
Speaker 3: in three or four fights. Then she gets the title

629
00:27:34,880 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 3: shot against Amanda Unees and that was the one where

630
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:38,720
Speaker 3: she wanted out and her coach min her continue and

631
00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 3: then she got beat up for it, which was not great.

632
00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 3: She followed it up with a loss to durandom Me.

633
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 3: She came back and beat eat n Al Donna hat

634
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:48,359
Speaker 3: somewhat controversially, then loses to Holly Holm and you thought, okay, well,

635
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:50,320
Speaker 3: at this point she might just be damaged goods like,

636
00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,919
Speaker 3: I mean, that's you know, all the injuries. Then to

637
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,800
Speaker 3: lose to Amanda Nuna is in that terrible way, you know,

638
00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:58,120
Speaker 3: that is what it is. And then she mounts an

639
00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 3: efing comeback. By the way, she was ten and eight

640
00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,400
Speaker 3: hitting into the Marian Renault fight. Then she beats her.

641
00:28:03,600 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 3: She beats Penny Keonzod, who's a very talented fighter, vastly

642
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,720
Speaker 3: improved over who she used to be. Then she beats Macy.

643
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 3: I always fucked this name up, Jay, Jason, Jason, I

644
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:16,240
Speaker 3: think I don't have the funk you said, I always

645
00:28:16,240 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 3: fucking up.

646
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 2: I'm so sorry.

647
00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:19,480
Speaker 3: And then she finished it up in her most recent

648
00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:23,720
Speaker 3: one over aspin Lab Dude, that is you know, especially

649
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,600
Speaker 3: like two of those three the middle two, the Keonzad

650
00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:27,240
Speaker 3: fight and then the Chassin fight.

651
00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:27,600
Speaker 2: Whatever.

652
00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,880
Speaker 3: Amazing, amazing what she's been able to do. So yeah, man,

653
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:36,280
Speaker 3: like Kaitlyn Vieira has her issues, right. We saw her

654
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,680
Speaker 3: get stopped against Kunitskaya, we saw her get stopped against

655
00:28:39,680 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 3: al Donna. But since then she's beaten Tate ann Holm

656
00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 3: to like boost her name again. This is a great fight,

657
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 3: one of the better ones on this card.

658
00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:50,560
Speaker 1: I think for Kaitlyn Vera, it's you win, you get

659
00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:52,520
Speaker 1: a title shot. I mean, she what does a man

660
00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 1: in nunas need now fresh fresh, you know, opponents that

661
00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: she hasn't fought yet. So that'd be a three fight

662
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 1: win right there against former champions or key multi time

663
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: title contenders there. So, man, good stakes. There should be

664
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,720
Speaker 1: a should be a striking match at the very least, Luke.

665
00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,080
Speaker 3: Right, yeah, yeah, that's the thing to me. It's where's

666
00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 3: this one going to be? Probably striking at range, I

667
00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 3: do expect. It's funny that they put this picture up

668
00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 3: right here. You see these two clinching. I'm expecting a

669
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:24,320
Speaker 3: lot of clinching. I think that dirty box clinching position,

670
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 3: the kind of wall ground in pounds so to speak.

671
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:32,880
Speaker 3: I think that's really where someone like Pennington thrives. But

672
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:34,600
Speaker 3: also Kitlyn Viea is pretty good there as well. I

673
00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:37,080
Speaker 3: think just Kitlyn's gonna want to avoid certain grap excuse me,

674
00:29:37,440 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 3: Pennington's gonna want to avoid certain grappling situations. But this

675
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:43,120
Speaker 3: is a very closely contested one. And by the way,

676
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,760
Speaker 3: speaking of the rankings, Kaitlyn Viera at bansa way as

677
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,800
Speaker 3: we speak today, sitting at two. Pennington has boosted her

678
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 3: career back to five. So this is you know, we're

679
00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:55,880
Speaker 3: talking like potential title shot possibilities here, especially if you're

680
00:29:56,360 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 3: Kitlyn Vienna, because number one is Juliana Pina. They not

681
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,560
Speaker 3: go that direction anyway, right, So, right, so this is

682
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,320
Speaker 3: a this is kind of a big deal between It's

683
00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:07,360
Speaker 3: a big fight for either.

684
00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:09,640
Speaker 2: It's an especially big fight for Vienna.

685
00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,080
Speaker 1: Look at those odds, though, Luke, they're given Raquel Pennington

686
00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,280
Speaker 1: a lot of respect in Vegas at plus one hundred

687
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 1: Viea minus one twenty. I think this is the time

688
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 1: to go big on Katlan here. I mean, this is

689
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:23,520
Speaker 1: a fight that that she should win, not, you know,

690
00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 1: notwithstanding the recent run by Pennington. Yes, who's a hard

691
00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:29,640
Speaker 1: out who is as tough as nails and and is

692
00:30:29,720 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 1: you know, want some key fights there to get to

693
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,840
Speaker 1: this point, no question. But I think Kaitlyn, at this

694
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:36,120
Speaker 1: at this moment, is the better fighter who has potential

695
00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,640
Speaker 1: to to to really make the leap directly to the

696
00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,280
Speaker 1: title with a win here, She's gonna have to be

697
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 1: more dynamic than usual here, luke, But I think she's

698
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,080
Speaker 1: got the brighter potential in that category. So I like

699
00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,160
Speaker 1: her as almost as only excuse me, a small favorite

700
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:50,040
Speaker 1: let's go here, you know.

701
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I understand that, and I think I would

702
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:56,040
Speaker 2: say Vieenna has more ways to win. I think that's fair.

703
00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:01,480
Speaker 3: But man, if if there is someone who can us persevere,

704
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,840
Speaker 3: uh and long term too, right, not just in those moments. Yes,

705
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,880
Speaker 3: she had the difficult moment between the fourth and fifth

706
00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,280
Speaker 3: rounds in the Amanda Nunez fight, but like in terms

707
00:31:09,280 --> 00:31:12,160
Speaker 3: of just stealing her mind for the long term journey

708
00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:16,200
Speaker 3: of difficulty. Fucking Raquel Pennington is a hammer, dude, She's

709
00:31:16,240 --> 00:31:17,240
Speaker 3: an amazing hammer.

710
00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:20,719
Speaker 1: So she does need to be one to be successful.

711
00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,480
Speaker 1: She needs to be a physical threat the whole fight though,

712
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,000
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And she is leaning clinching

713
00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,640
Speaker 1: as you said, But if you can keep her at length,

714
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: which isn't easy. You know you can. You can't control her,

715
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:34,320
Speaker 1: so we'll see what happens here, Luke. But interesting odds

716
00:31:34,360 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 1: and you know I probably had a great point that

717
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,520
Speaker 1: I was. Oh oh, I was gonna say. You can

Speaker 3: I mean you can make a great joke to like

725
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 3: salvage the bad one you made that probably is gonna

726
00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:04,720
Speaker 3: lose us.

727
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,800
Speaker 1: All over I think the other way around. Yeah, yeah, I.

728
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:10,560
Speaker 3: Was gonna say, you see the biggest favorite on the card,

729
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 3: No surprise Rite, No surprise Umar number made off taking

730
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:17,360
Speaker 3: on how or Howny Barcelos uh Umar number made off

731
00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:19,719
Speaker 3: a minus seven fifty BC. This guy can do it all.

732
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know about the striking just yet.

733
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 3: But on the ground, his control, his ability to switch

734
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,280
Speaker 3: between and chain takedowns together, his ground to pound, his

735
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:33,320
Speaker 3: sub threat, his positional dominance, his his work rate, he

736
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 3: has everything he needs to win this bout and more

737
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 3: any any doubts about that?

738
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 2: Am I missing something? Perha Well?

739
00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: I wanted to see how extreme this movement goes. Right now?

740
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,480
Speaker 1: There are truthers out there shout out to him who

741
00:32:45,480 --> 00:32:47,920
Speaker 1: have said from day one, like I love me some

742
00:32:48,120 --> 00:32:52,000
Speaker 1: Mahachev and oh shit, Usman Normaga Metov is something wild.

743
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:53,880
Speaker 1: And you know a lot of the people on the

744
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:59,040
Speaker 1: periphery of the greater Habib family extension through Daugustein. I mean,

745
00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 1: there's some great ones that are all competing, but Umar's

746
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:03,880
Speaker 1: the best of all of them. Look, you do hear

747
00:33:03,960 --> 00:33:06,680
Speaker 1: that from people, right I mean, that's a thing out

748
00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: there right now?

749
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:10,640
Speaker 2: You do you do hear that from people? I don't

750
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:13,520
Speaker 2: know how true that is.

751
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,200
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it yet. I've seen a lot to

752
00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,960
Speaker 1: be impressed with. I've seen a lot, but I haven't

753
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 1: seen that thing that can give those people that level

754
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,760
Speaker 1: of confidence yet. But as he continues to climb the

755
00:33:24,840 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 1: ladder here, he's got what he's got chances to show us.

756
00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're Hani Barcelos, what are you doing,

757
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:32,160
Speaker 1: Harelu coming out guns blazon or is that the worst

758
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 1: possible idea?

759
00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:36,880
Speaker 3: I mean, it's the question is like, not what is

760
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,680
Speaker 3: the best strategy, The question is what is the best

761
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,760
Speaker 3: strategy you could come up with given your existing skill set.

762
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:44,440
Speaker 3: And I'm just really not sure what Barcelos could do

763
00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 3: given his existing skill set to at to if necessary,

764
00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:54,440
Speaker 3: keep number made Off off of him for three rounds. Like,

765
00:33:54,520 --> 00:33:56,800
Speaker 3: I just don't know, because right you have to you

766
00:33:56,840 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 3: can't build in oh I'm gonna kao him by the

767
00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:01,720
Speaker 3: seventh minute. It that doesn't it doesn't work that way, right,

768
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:03,120
Speaker 3: You have to you have to build a strategy that

769
00:34:03,200 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 3: goes what if it goes to full fifteen, And I

770
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,840
Speaker 3: don't I just don't know what that would be candidly,

771
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,640
Speaker 3: I mean, don't get me wrong, He's he's a good striker.

772
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 3: Nena made Off makes a mistake, he could eat one

773
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 3: fine fair enough. That's a real thing that has to

774
00:34:16,360 --> 00:34:18,440
Speaker 3: be taking the consideration. But we're talking about a guy

775
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,680
Speaker 3: who's very carefully selects his offense, but can do that

776
00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:24,560
Speaker 3: pretty quickly. Like he just makes very good decisions very quickly,

777
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 3: and his overall grappling and wrestling game is very comprehensively good.

778
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:33,520
Speaker 3: Barcelos is pack of lunch. He's gonna need to pack

779
00:34:33,520 --> 00:34:33,879
Speaker 3: a lunch.

780
00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:35,279
Speaker 2: Yeah, tough one.

781
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:38,399
Speaker 1: I think they used to say about the Jackson five,

782
00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,640
Speaker 1: Luke that Tito was like the the glue, the unsung hero,

783
00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:42,319
Speaker 1: you know what I mean?

784
00:34:43,400 --> 00:34:45,960
Speaker 2: I thought that was Michael Oh, the unsung hero.

785
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:50,279
Speaker 1: Michael maybe star. Okay, Yeah, dude, I want to see

786
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 1: I want to see him continue to rise. Let's see

787
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:54,320
Speaker 1: what he's got here at Umar and Normaga met off this. Uh,

788
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,520
Speaker 1: I mean, dude, he's he can't do it all, Luke.

789
00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: I mean, would you say he's more of a submission

790
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 1: threat than he is a a striking throw at this point?

791
00:35:01,160 --> 00:35:02,200
Speaker 1: Or is it pretty well rub.

792
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 2: Out to this point?

793
00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:06,879
Speaker 3: I don't think he's shown quite the standing versatility as

794
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:07,640
Speaker 3: Usman has.

795
00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's part of why I'm like hesitating here. I mean,

796
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: Islam Mahach is pretty great too, Luke, in terms of

797
00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:16,680
Speaker 1: the comparisons in the overall extended family here. But uh, hey,

798
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:19,799
Speaker 1: did you see after we talked about Habib on Monday, Luke,

799
00:35:19,840 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: that the news was softened to a certain degree that

800
00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:24,920
Speaker 1: he's not retiring from coaching, but he is going to

801
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 1: take an extended break.

802
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:28,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

803
00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 3: None of these guys can never fully stay away, you know,

804
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 3: they can never fully stay away.

805
00:35:33,040 --> 00:35:35,239
Speaker 1: But so you're saying it's the same news. Yeah, I

806
00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 1: guess it's the same news.

807
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:38,399
Speaker 2: Sort of the same news, yeah. BC.

808
00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:40,800
Speaker 3: Last one, not least for me on this card, Javid Basharat.

809
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,680
Speaker 3: I mentioned the one I was putting my eye on

810
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:46,080
Speaker 3: on Monday Show, taking on Miteyous Mendoza. They've got Basharat

811
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,200
Speaker 3: as a substantial favorite. I think it's a little high.

812
00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:50,880
Speaker 3: They have him at minus three forty five to Mendoza's

813
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,680
Speaker 3: plus two to eighty five. I do recognize that Basharat

814
00:35:53,719 --> 00:35:55,759
Speaker 3: is the more well rounded of the two, but as

815
00:35:55,800 --> 00:35:58,560
Speaker 3: I mentioned in their twenties, undefeated, two guys who are

816
00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:03,080
Speaker 3: very much, you know, high level prospects clashing. It just

817
00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,920
Speaker 3: feels to me that Basharat has way more ways to

818
00:36:05,960 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 3: win this, and I suspect that you'll probably see that

819
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:10,719
Speaker 3: play out. But Mendosa is not to be fucked with.

820
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:15,040
Speaker 1: To be quite clear, Luke, little little minor, super sloppy

821
00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 1: special alert feels out to the opener. At women's flyweight,

822
00:36:18,920 --> 00:36:23,800
Speaker 1: Priscilla Katchawera and Sarge you Banks look both could you

823
00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,960
Speaker 1: know catchuay is on a two fight win streak, but

824
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,960
Speaker 1: both could use some big momentum here. I think we

825
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:32,600
Speaker 1: see a nice little war. Okay, so be on the lookout.

826
00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:34,359
Speaker 1: You're gonna tune in early, Luke, I think you're gonna

827
00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:35,040
Speaker 1: see something fun.

828
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:39,200
Speaker 3: Priscilla Ketchuaa is sitting at twelve and four man Valentina

829
00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 3: Shipchenko fucked her up. Then she lost them to Ali

830
00:36:41,239 --> 00:36:42,680
Speaker 3: McCann and then Luana Carolina.

831
00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:45,520
Speaker 1: She fights crazy, Luke, she fights crazy.

832
00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:47,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, she does fight crazy.

833
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,920
Speaker 3: Interesting one the start the Sarge you Bank one is

834
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:54,320
Speaker 3: interesting too because she was a really decorated jiu jitsu competitor,

835
00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,719
Speaker 3: and I just don't know if we've really seen her

836
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,359
Speaker 3: jiu jitsu fully. Obviously she's had some good moments with it,

837
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 3: but I thought it'd be more of a calling card

838
00:37:03,719 --> 00:37:06,040
Speaker 3: for her and just hasn't quite translated as fully.

839
00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:06,279
Speaker 1: Push.

840
00:37:06,280 --> 00:37:08,839
Speaker 2: She's seven and seven, so big, and she's lost three

841
00:37:08,880 --> 00:37:10,479
Speaker 2: of her last four. So this is a big one.

842
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 1: You say that the being forced to move. No, she

843
00:37:15,520 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 1: came down from Banham White actually right down to Flywait.

844
00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 2: I think that's right.

845
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,239
Speaker 1: I have to double check, but I mean she did fly.

846
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:23,359
Speaker 1: She Yeah, she.

847
00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,359
Speaker 3: Had some nice wins early on, like she beat Lauren

848
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,080
Speaker 3: Murphy and then Roxanne Motaferry, like she started off pretty great,

849
00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,600
Speaker 3: but has had I think she said, some injuries and

850
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:32,799
Speaker 3: some time off and a bunch of bouts canceled and

851
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:34,960
Speaker 3: all kinds of whatnot. But now this is a big

852
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,040
Speaker 3: important fight for her, no doubt about it. It's opening

853
00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,480
Speaker 3: the car, to your point, but it's major, major stakes

854
00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 3: for their individual careers.

855
00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:41,920
Speaker 2: All right.

856
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 3: See, let's talk about topic number two here, which is

857
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:48,480
Speaker 3: the one on Prime Video six event that this Friday,

858
00:37:49,560 --> 00:37:52,560
Speaker 3: quite an interesting event, uh to be to put it mildly,

859
00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:54,759
Speaker 3: let me put up the the details here. So this

860
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 3: is going to be obviously on Amazon Prime fere an

861
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:01,920
Speaker 3: Amazon Prime subscriber. It'll be at the Impact Area in Bangkok, Thailand.

862
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,959
Speaker 3: Now here's what I'm not gonna do. I'm not gonna

863
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,040
Speaker 3: get up here and pretend to have information that I

864
00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:09,319
Speaker 3: have and just pass off expertise that I know I

865
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:11,919
Speaker 3: don't have. Of all of the composite sports with an MMA,

866
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:14,600
Speaker 3: kickboxing has been just a pretty big weakness for me.

867
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 3: I think BC you would say that as well. The

868
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,719
Speaker 3: grappling sports I know a lot more about. Certainly we

869
00:38:19,080 --> 00:38:21,120
Speaker 3: pay a lot of attention to boxing on this car,

870
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:23,680
Speaker 3: on this sub show. Excuse me, kickboxing is just a

871
00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:25,560
Speaker 3: bit of a weakness for us. But BC, here's something

872
00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:26,879
Speaker 3: I wanted to point out. I've been doing a little

873
00:38:26,880 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 3: bit of research about this, about this. This is to me,

874
00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:33,480
Speaker 3: we talk about the one situation all the time. The

875
00:38:33,520 --> 00:38:36,400
Speaker 3: main event is superbond taking on I believe it's pronounced

876
00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 3: Shinghi's Alasov.

877
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:38,319
Speaker 2: BC.

878
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:40,719
Speaker 3: Did you realize this, because this was something that did

879
00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,200
Speaker 3: not occur to me. This will be a pro kickboxing event,

880
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 3: not MMA or muay Thai. Superbond versus Alasov is literally,

881
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:52,359
Speaker 3: by most people's standards, the number one pound for pound

882
00:38:52,520 --> 00:38:55,760
Speaker 3: versus number two pound for pound fighters in the sport

883
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,279
Speaker 3: going at it. And by the way, Alozov had to

884
00:38:59,320 --> 00:39:01,839
Speaker 3: win or had to do really well in a grand

885
00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:04,080
Speaker 3: prixy get to this point. By the way, he beat Sidochai,

886
00:39:04,120 --> 00:39:09,239
Speaker 3: who's another monstrously celebrated name in mulay Thai and now

887
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,200
Speaker 3: kickboxing at this point, But dude, I want you to

888
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:16,000
Speaker 3: understand that one is putting on basically, and by the way,

889
00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,720
Speaker 3: it's at one fifty five. This is more or less

890
00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:23,000
Speaker 3: something like the equivalent of Volkanovski versus I mean, Volkanoski

891
00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:24,080
Speaker 3: is coming up a weight class. So it gets a

892
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,239
Speaker 3: little bit different, but you know, they're talking about number

893
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:29,080
Speaker 3: one versus number two guys in the sport. That's what

894
00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,680
Speaker 3: this is. That's fucking impressive that they're putting this on.

895
00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:35,839
Speaker 1: I have to say their model, and obviously they they're

896
00:39:36,200 --> 00:39:38,799
Speaker 1: part of the major thing that differentiates them from the

897
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,120
Speaker 1: competitors is right here that it's not just MMA, and

898
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 1: it's mixed in with their MMA promotion. It's it's kickboxing,

899
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: it's whatever, it's muay Thai. But dude, they take chances

900
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,480
Speaker 1: to create big steaks in the main events, and I

901
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:55,040
Speaker 1: think because of that, I've grown to trust one from

902
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:58,400
Speaker 1: the standpoint of when a main event is announced, separate

903
00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,480
Speaker 1: from is this the right type of man of on

904
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 1: Amazon priv to hook in American fans. They've got some

905
00:40:03,160 --> 00:40:05,879
Speaker 1: of those two. But sometimes you go, Okay, I don't

906
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,520
Speaker 1: know who these two are, but I respect that this

907
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,879
Speaker 1: is probably pretty important. I mean, look, it's like there's

908
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 1: a lot of champion versus champion fights across all the

909
00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:17,879
Speaker 1: divisions and disciplines here in one. So you do get

910
00:40:17,920 --> 00:40:21,200
Speaker 1: a chance to make big noise if you can, you know,

911
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 1: get hot and you're willing to fight in different divisions

912
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 1: and take big chances, and it's not easy to keep

913
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 1: that streak going. I mean that our dr fight just

914
00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:31,120
Speaker 1: just the last time out against Mallikin was a big

915
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,880
Speaker 1: reminder of that. But damn dude, Okay, I'm ready that

916
00:40:34,960 --> 00:40:36,160
Speaker 1: you gave me a reason to tune in.

917
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,359
Speaker 3: Right Yeah, And so my understanding is, and I've seen

918
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,600
Speaker 3: some of their fights, but I couldn't tell you like great.

919
00:40:40,719 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 3: I couldn't get like the breakdowns we can do in

920
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,279
Speaker 3: m man, I'm not really capable of doing that right

921
00:40:44,320 --> 00:40:47,920
Speaker 3: now in kickboxing. But Alazov, the tape is pretty clear.

922
00:40:48,440 --> 00:40:51,600
Speaker 3: He will obviously he's a kickboxer, so he will use kicks,

923
00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,719
Speaker 3: but he's heavy on the hands by kickboxing standards.

924
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 2: He'll mix the two together.

925
00:40:56,000 --> 00:40:58,400
Speaker 3: But he really is sort of a come forward force

926
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 3: that is quite remarkable in that way. It throws a

927
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,080
Speaker 3: lot from the winding punches from different angles.

928
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 2: But your your boy super Bown here, who's number.

929
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 3: One in pound for pound rankings by most people, much

930
00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 3: more of a distance kicker. So there's really gonna be

931
00:41:13,160 --> 00:41:15,360
Speaker 3: who can define the terms of the fight. It's going

932
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 3: to be for I think it's five three minute rounds

933
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:19,480
Speaker 3: and it's for the one to fifty five to one

934
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:23,680
Speaker 3: belt in kickboxing, so huge, huge fight for them, really important.

935
00:41:23,719 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 3: One your co main EVENTBC for the one vacant bantaweight

936
00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,680
Speaker 3: Championship in Kickboxing, Superlec taken on a guy out of

937
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:34,319
Speaker 3: Spain named Daniel Poetas every preview and or review I have,

938
00:41:34,800 --> 00:41:36,800
Speaker 3: you know, assessment of this I've read is that Superlec

939
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 3: is going to beat the fuck out of this guy.

940
00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:41,560
Speaker 3: So I don't know how much there is to say

941
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:47,160
Speaker 3: in that regard Mikey Musamechi taking on Bayan Duran Gantumer,

942
00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 3: He's going to demolish him. Anytime you see these grappling

943
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 3: events and it's like, how would a guy from ADCC

944
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:55,960
Speaker 3: do against you know, a wrestler from this this or

945
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,320
Speaker 3: this part of the world, or you know a Sambo

946
00:41:58,400 --> 00:41:59,919
Speaker 3: guy from this part of the world. It's like, yeah,

947
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 3: the ADCC guy would fuck him up, is basically the answer.

948
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,319
Speaker 3: Like there would be no good reason why this guy

949
00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,400
Speaker 3: would win, even with a weight advantage. So the question

950
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:11,399
Speaker 3: is not really that Mussu Mitchi will win, but how

951
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:12,880
Speaker 3: it was really the question.

952
00:42:12,880 --> 00:42:17,600
Speaker 1: There, Luke, when can I induct you into the stamp

953
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,480
Speaker 1: Fairtech's hype train and and join the bandwagon with me.

954
00:42:21,840 --> 00:42:25,000
Speaker 1: She makes spectacularly fun fights. She's like a rock star.

955
00:42:25,239 --> 00:42:26,040
Speaker 2: So let's talk about this.

956
00:42:26,120 --> 00:42:28,399
Speaker 3: She's on this card in a custom rules about five

957
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:31,480
Speaker 3: three minute rounds against Anissa Mexan out I believe out

958
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:33,680
Speaker 3: of France. This is a custom rules about so I

959
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:36,600
Speaker 3: think they're going back and forth between kickboxing and MMA,

960
00:42:37,239 --> 00:42:39,600
Speaker 3: kind of like that DJ Rodtang fight.

961
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:40,160
Speaker 2: Correct.

962
00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 3: I'm not sure exactly which direction that's going, but that's

963
00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:45,319
Speaker 3: sort of what's on the plane. Yeah, dude, I'm up

964
00:42:45,360 --> 00:42:48,960
Speaker 3: for it. Like she's a great fighter, fun. Everyone in

965
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,240
Speaker 3: the kickboxing world tells me this will be like the

966
00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:55,040
Speaker 3: be action oriented. So I'm not as in on it

967
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,040
Speaker 3: as you are, but but for sure I'm in on it.

968
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,240
Speaker 1: I got introduced to her star Luke and uh, somebody

969
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:04,040
Speaker 1: who understands the spotlight and how to how to try

970
00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,440
Speaker 1: to you know, fill that and become her best. You

971
00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:09,440
Speaker 1: see in these pictures she did lose in challenging for

972
00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 1: Angela les belt in a wild fight, but that's that's

973
00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:15,120
Speaker 1: the type of fight she makes. Soud be interesting to

974
00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 1: see if this has that type of DJ versus rod

975
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,000
Speaker 1: Tang type of just you know, fun wild element.

976
00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:20,200
Speaker 2: To it.

977
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:22,160
Speaker 1: I kind of believe it will, Luke. So this is

978
00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:24,439
Speaker 1: my this is my fight. I'm circling on the card there,

979
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:27,440
Speaker 1: but you know, I'll probably stay around for Mikey Mussamechi

980
00:43:28,600 --> 00:43:29,640
Speaker 1: of grappling too.

981
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:29,920
Speaker 2: You know.

982
00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:31,799
Speaker 1: I know that's because that's big in your parts. Luke.

983
00:43:32,480 --> 00:43:32,719
Speaker 2: Yeah.

984
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,359
Speaker 3: I mean also, he's just vastly superior to the guy

985
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 3: he's going against.

986
00:43:36,400 --> 00:43:37,439
Speaker 2: So we'll see how that goes.

987
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,440
Speaker 3: Gary Tonan taking on Johnny Nunia Johnny Nuniyaz. I believe

988
00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,720
Speaker 3: that is that is Misha Tate's partner.

989
00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,880
Speaker 2: I believe that's right. I could be Misterking about that.

990
00:43:47,600 --> 00:43:49,680
Speaker 3: But then I also want to point out you had

991
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 3: mentioned this on Monday show. Rod Tang is going to

992
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:55,640
Speaker 3: take on a gentleman by the name of Jijiduo Ybu

993
00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:58,600
Speaker 3: out of China, and again every preview I have read

994
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:00,520
Speaker 3: about this is that Row Tang is going to fucking

995
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:04,319
Speaker 3: assassinate this guy. So some squash matches on here, BC.

996
00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:05,880
Speaker 3: Definitely some squash matches.

997
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 1: It's gonna be in Bangkok. Do you think our CBS

998
00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:12,640
Speaker 1: cohort Brent Stover, who will be on the call and

999
00:44:12,640 --> 00:44:14,880
Speaker 1: play by play on the one Amazon card, do you

1000
00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:16,279
Speaker 1: think he's just tearing up the night life.

1001
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:16,400
Speaker 2: There.

1002
00:44:16,440 --> 00:44:17,920
Speaker 1: You know he's an aspiring country star.

1003
00:44:18,080 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 2: Luke, He's an aspiring country star.

1004
00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:24,759
Speaker 1: The dude play, The dude plays uh, plays bars all

1005
00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:28,040
Speaker 1: the time, plays guitar and uh and uh and the

1006
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:35,080
Speaker 1: women's swoon. I'm sure. I'm sure, Hot Stove I call him.

1007
00:44:35,080 --> 00:44:36,759
Speaker 1: Would you would you go to a Brent Stover show?

1008
00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:37,640
Speaker 1: Or no?

1009
00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:38,719
Speaker 2: No? No?

1010
00:44:38,920 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, all right, I guess last.

1011
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,520
Speaker 3: Weeks to remind everyone this is how interesting this card

1012
00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:47,000
Speaker 3: is for Friday on Amazon Prime, which will be by

1013
00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,319
Speaker 3: the way. Main card starts at eight pm. It has

1014
00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:55,680
Speaker 3: three MMA bouts, three kickboxing bouts, one grappling bout, one

1015
00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:58,680
Speaker 3: more tiebout. Sort of speaks to exactly what one is

1016
00:44:58,719 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 3: doing here. It's an MMA per motion in the sense

1017
00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,399
Speaker 3: that that's sort of like the anchor programming, but they

1018
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:05,799
Speaker 3: are much more. I think they should be thought of

1019
00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 3: as a martial arts promoter. They don't promote every martial art,

1020
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:13,280
Speaker 3: but they promote a lot of basically any combat sport

1021
00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:14,360
Speaker 3: that isn't boxing.

1022
00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:17,240
Speaker 2: They do. It's an interesting rule.

1023
00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,920
Speaker 1: Said key question here. Let's say, you know, we come

1024
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,360
Speaker 1: around with shatre. Let's say we have him on, we

1025
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,640
Speaker 1: interview him and we ask all the hard questions, and

1026
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,439
Speaker 1: you know, we're like, hey, you know that's our guy,

1027
00:45:27,560 --> 00:45:30,239
Speaker 1: Shawtre and then he spins it around and goes, Okay,

1028
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:32,319
Speaker 1: Luke and BC, I s globally the awards you guys

1029
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,879
Speaker 1: are winning. I mean, it's just ridiculous, right. I want

1030
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,640
Speaker 1: you guys to be in season two of one Championship

1031
00:45:37,640 --> 00:45:41,000
Speaker 1: Apprentice Edition. And Luke, you know it's a commitment. You're

1032
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,160
Speaker 1: gonna have to be away from your family in Asia

1033
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,239
Speaker 1: for a while. Does this offer even get to the

1034
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:47,080
Speaker 1: marriage table?

1035
00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:47,440
Speaker 2: Does it?

1036
00:45:47,520 --> 00:45:49,200
Speaker 1: Is it even something you talk about?

1037
00:45:50,160 --> 00:45:53,680
Speaker 2: No? Gott of a question? Does that?

1038
00:45:55,160 --> 00:45:58,200
Speaker 1: All right? Well it's a big opportunity, Luke, all right

1039
00:45:58,640 --> 00:46:01,120
Speaker 1: they got GSP last season and okay, come on.

1040
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:03,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think that's a big opportunity.

1041
00:46:04,040 --> 00:46:06,920
Speaker 1: All right, all right, well you're like, sorry, sir, I

1042
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,439
Speaker 1: enjoy your fights, but that's where our relationship ends.

1043
00:46:09,600 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1044
00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:13,880
Speaker 3: I definitely think very highly of the one product. But

1045
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,560
Speaker 3: everything else about it, you know, that's what I think.

1046
00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:20,880
Speaker 1: You don't like that extra large championship title. It's the

1047
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 1: heaviest combat.

1048
00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:23,000
Speaker 2: I do like that.

1049
00:46:23,080 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 3: Some people like the smaller you know, subdued ones. But

1050
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:27,640
Speaker 3: I've always been the guy with the put the twenty

1051
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,400
Speaker 3: two inch rims on the escalade right at the spree

1052
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,640
Speaker 3: Wells when the car stop, rims keep spinning.

1053
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:33,840
Speaker 2: You know what I'm talking about.

1054
00:46:34,160 --> 00:46:36,360
Speaker 1: I know what you're talking about. Remember spree well in

1055
00:46:36,360 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 1: Game five of the ninety nine finals against the Spurs.

1056
00:46:38,680 --> 00:46:40,960
Speaker 1: Like they lost, but that guy was horror. It was

1057
00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:44,480
Speaker 1: just heroic in that game. I don't think you remember that, Luke. Heroic?

1058
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:44,799
Speaker 1: All right?

1059
00:46:45,160 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 3: Also, nor do I care? All Right, let's talk a

1060
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:50,560
Speaker 3: little bit about jose aldough BC. I've got some good

1061
00:46:50,600 --> 00:46:51,720
Speaker 3: news and some bad news.

1062
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:54,759
Speaker 1: Well, Lucas. The bad news, I mean, the bad news

1063
00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:57,160
Speaker 1: depends on what side of the political line you're on, right,

1064
00:46:57,200 --> 00:47:00,359
Speaker 1: I mean, you're framing this as a what what are

1065
00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:01,080
Speaker 1: you saying? He's Brazil?

1066
00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:02,440
Speaker 2: Hard to what you say?

1067
00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:07,239
Speaker 3: You were involved in a welfare fraud scandal. Hard hard

1068
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,120
Speaker 3: to be like that's good. You could be like it's

1069
00:47:10,239 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 3: just not bad.

1070
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:13,640
Speaker 1: I mean, so was Brett Farv Luke, you know what

1071
00:47:13,719 --> 00:47:15,960
Speaker 1: I'm saying. So was Brett Farv. Right, we'll all.

1072
00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:17,480
Speaker 2: About a good part. Let's talk about the good part.

1073
00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 3: First, expected to make his pro boxing debut on February

1074
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,400
Speaker 3: tenth in Rio. The event will be held at the

1075
00:47:23,520 --> 00:47:26,920
Speaker 3: Upper Arena Nova Unyau's training center and usual site for

1076
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:29,080
Speaker 3: their SHOOTOU Brazil cards that they hold in the city.

1077
00:47:29,120 --> 00:47:32,239
Speaker 3: Shooto Brazil a very legitimate regional organization at least has

1078
00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,160
Speaker 3: been for some time out of Brazil.

1079
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:37,880
Speaker 2: Bec and level of interest in Jose Aldo boxing barely.

1080
00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:43,440
Speaker 1: I mean, like, am I overly excited? No, But I

1081
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,680
Speaker 1: do think he's got, you know, a certain certain amount

1082
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,160
Speaker 1: left in the tank in an overall combat sports, you

1083
00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:50,960
Speaker 1: know way of speaking. I guess I would rather this

1084
00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,640
Speaker 1: than you know, him fighting some Jake Paul level guy

1085
00:47:53,640 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 1: who's way bigger than him, where it could be a problem. Uh,

1086
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:58,360
Speaker 1: They're probably gonna put him in there against modest competition.

1087
00:47:58,440 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 1: Let's see what he's got, Luke, Let's see if he's

1088
00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:01,439
Speaker 1: come to see if he can go down this road

1089
00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,880
Speaker 1: a little bit. But I mean, would you say the

1090
00:48:03,960 --> 00:48:06,240
Speaker 1: other half of this equation is a little more troubling.

1091
00:48:06,600 --> 00:48:08,359
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say my level of interest in him

1092
00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:11,000
Speaker 3: boxing is moderate moderate. I mean I would want to

1093
00:48:11,000 --> 00:48:12,319
Speaker 3: see it. I'm not going to pay a whole bunch

1094
00:48:12,320 --> 00:48:13,600
Speaker 3: of money for it, but I would want to see

1095
00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,600
Speaker 3: it write something like that. On the other side, he

1096
00:48:16,680 --> 00:48:19,360
Speaker 3: has made a bunch of weird ass headlines. Boy, the

1097
00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 3: start to MMA in twenty twenty three is one of

1098
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,719
Speaker 3: the most fuckingsane I've ever seen in my life. I

1099
00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:27,319
Speaker 3: got to bring down the level of swearing because they

1100
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,280
Speaker 3: picked this up and then they take away our ad money.

1101
00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:30,759
Speaker 2: But I'll just put it this way.

1102
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 3: So basically, there was an election in Brazil. The previous president,

1103
00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 3: Jayer Bolsonaro, loses and he had to flee the country

1104
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,719
Speaker 3: on the advice of his lawyers for potential crimes he's

1105
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,960
Speaker 3: being investigated for related to corruption. Corruption is endemic in Brazil,

1106
00:48:45,000 --> 00:48:47,680
Speaker 3: but certainly he's had his share of it, allegedly anyway,

1107
00:48:48,000 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 3: So guess where Jaya Bolsonaro is staying. Oh, that's right,

1108
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:56,080
Speaker 3: Jose Aldo's Orlando mansion, which, by the way, BC the

1109
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:59,760
Speaker 3: News has reported that Bolsonaro is staying in Aldo's mansion.

1110
00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:03,239
Speaker 3: But the mansion was purchased like just a few years ago,

1111
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:06,440
Speaker 3: not even very long ago, for seven hundred and forty

1112
00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 3: five k in Florida, b C. I gotta tell you,

1113
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 3: seven hundred and forty five K won't even get you

1114
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 3: a two bedroom in this city, much less a mansion.

1115
00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,839
Speaker 3: Can you really get a mansion for seven hundred and

1116
00:49:17,840 --> 00:49:19,680
Speaker 3: forty five k in Orlando, Florida?

1117
00:49:19,719 --> 00:49:20,800
Speaker 2: Do you believe it's a mansion?

1118
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:25,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, you Doda. First of all, I mean, look at Florida.

1119
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: You know, No, am I an expert on Florida real estate. No,

1120
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:31,359
Speaker 1: but my you know, my parents live there, and and

1121
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,440
Speaker 1: I know to a certain degree. Obviously Beachfront is different.

1122
00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,280
Speaker 1: But if you're talking about Orlando.

1123
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:37,920
Speaker 2: I think it's near Disney World.

1124
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,640
Speaker 1: I mean, there's different levels to a large home. But

1125
00:49:42,040 --> 00:49:44,600
Speaker 1: that's not you know, you even in you know, in

1126
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,120
Speaker 1: suburban Connecticut here in some of these snobby towns. Dude,

1127
00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: seven hundred k gets you a niceest mic mansion up

1128
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:51,879
Speaker 1: in these parts, a nice one.

1129
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:56,320
Speaker 3: So okay, hold, I mean production staff, the production staff

1130
00:49:56,400 --> 00:49:59,040
Speaker 3: just wrote to me, you can get a nice house

1131
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:02,960
Speaker 3: in Orlando for less than one hundred k. Bullshit. I

1132
00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,920
Speaker 3: don't believe that at all. My brother used to live there.

1133
00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:10,359
Speaker 1: That's why I'm saying. Part of why I'm saying there's

1134
00:50:10,440 --> 00:50:13,360
Speaker 1: levels to this, because you know, most of Florida, away

1135
00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:17,200
Speaker 1: from the ocean, the real estate can be very competitive, Luke,

1136
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:20,560
Speaker 1: because it's Florida, and some of it is rural Florida,

1137
00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:23,799
Speaker 1: and you know some of that extended Orlando area just

1138
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,279
Speaker 1: is you know, being pushed out into more you know,

1139
00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 1: forest of trees that are getting knocked down, a new neighborhood. So, okay,

1140
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,920
Speaker 1: seven hundred k out there, dude, I mean Tiger, that's

1141
00:50:31,960 --> 00:50:35,000
Speaker 1: where Tiger got a got a nine iron through the window, right,

1142
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,319
Speaker 1: I mean you can. You can make myself, I.

1143
00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,440
Speaker 2: Have tens of millions something and he's.

1144
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:41,400
Speaker 1: Well, that's why I'm saying there's levels to it. For

1145
00:50:41,440 --> 00:50:44,000
Speaker 1: seven hundred K, you can get a pretty big ass house, dude,

1146
00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: no question about it. So shout out to Jose for that.

1147
00:50:47,080 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 1: You know, he eats what he kills, all right.

1148
00:50:49,680 --> 00:50:53,520
Speaker 3: Intrepid producer in in Florida, Mikey Morem says, quote, my

1149
00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:57,080
Speaker 3: boy has a five bed, three bath for three hundred

1150
00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,600
Speaker 3: k in Orlando. Dude, five bed, three bath where I

1151
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,160
Speaker 3: live is one and a half two million.

1152
00:51:03,239 --> 00:51:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you live in a stupid area for housing

1153
00:51:06,239 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 1: pricing that's only comparable to like San Francisco and Manhattan.

1154
00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 1: It's okay.

1155
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:12,879
Speaker 3: I guess my perspective is warped because when I see something, yeah,

1156
00:51:12,920 --> 00:51:14,719
Speaker 3: a little bit seven forty five K isn't gonna buy

1157
00:51:14,760 --> 00:51:15,600
Speaker 3: you shit around here.

1158
00:51:17,040 --> 00:51:20,840
Speaker 1: But that's more reason why you should be selling banking

1159
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:21,719
Speaker 1: and going, Luke.

1160
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:23,920
Speaker 2: You know, I gotta go. I gotta move to outside

1161
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:25,879
Speaker 2: of Orlando. I could be living like a fucking king

1162
00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:26,520
Speaker 2: out there.

1163
00:51:26,640 --> 00:51:29,160
Speaker 1: Dude, one hundred percent, you could, Okay, I might do.

1164
00:51:29,239 --> 00:51:30,960
Speaker 2: Look at my stupid life.

1165
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:32,759
Speaker 1: And you could be living great in in you know,

1166
00:51:32,840 --> 00:51:35,399
Speaker 1: some some rich suburban areas if you wanted to, Luke,

1167
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:37,480
Speaker 1: or you could go. You could buy a whole building

1168
00:51:37,520 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 1: in Brooklyn, Luke. You could be a hipster.

1169
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,080
Speaker 2: I could. All right, let's get back to the story

1170
00:51:41,120 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 2: very quickly.

1171
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:42,759
Speaker 3: Be see, there's not a whole lot to say, but

1172
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:44,319
Speaker 3: I think the audience should know about it if they

1173
00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:44,960
Speaker 3: don't already.

1174
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:47,719
Speaker 2: So Number one, there's not a big deal.

1175
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:50,520
Speaker 3: I suppose that Bolsonaro is staying with Aldo other than

1176
00:51:50,560 --> 00:51:53,719
Speaker 3: you know, Aldo's got retrograde political views, is the best

1177
00:51:53,719 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 3: way I could put that. But the other thing I

1178
00:51:55,080 --> 00:51:57,920
Speaker 3: would say is that there is at least some speculation

1179
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:02,480
Speaker 3: among the Brazilian press that this incident that happened at

1180
00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,839
Speaker 3: the Brazilian National Congress and Supreme Court where they had

1181
00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 3: their version of January sixth that that may have been

1182
00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 3: planned by Bolsonaro in Florida. So it's at least possible

1183
00:52:12,400 --> 00:52:14,480
Speaker 3: that all this went down in Jose Aldo's house, which

1184
00:52:14,520 --> 00:52:15,240
Speaker 3: is something to consider.

1185
00:52:15,400 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 2: So here's the other part. BC.

1186
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,320
Speaker 3: Vivian Paena Olivera, which is old Aldo's wife, is allegedly

1187
00:52:20,440 --> 00:52:23,480
Speaker 3: listed as having received emergency funds from a collection of

1188
00:52:23,480 --> 00:52:25,480
Speaker 3: money selected to be awarded to the poorest families in

1189
00:52:25,480 --> 00:52:28,680
Speaker 3: Brazil during the COVID nineteen pandemic. Records show that Olivera

1190
00:52:28,760 --> 00:52:32,120
Speaker 3: received equivalent to one hundred and twenty bucks monthly between

1191
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 3: May and October twenty twenty, with two subsequent lower payments

1192
00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:37,279
Speaker 3: the following two months. Aldo's wife wasn't registered as part

1193
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:41,040
Speaker 3: of the Platform for Social Programs, making her ineligible to

1194
00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 3: receive the emergency government handouts, and her wife commented on Instagram, quote,

1195
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 3: just because we put Bolsonaro in our house, the leftists

1196
00:52:49,040 --> 00:52:52,280
Speaker 3: are now snooping on our life. I have never.

1197
00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:56,400
Speaker 2: Received a registered for emergency help BC. I don't know

1198
00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:57,120
Speaker 2: what's right.

1199
00:52:57,640 --> 00:53:00,440
Speaker 1: We'll sort it out on Maury this week. I don't know.

1200
00:53:00,520 --> 00:53:03,520
Speaker 1: I mean, if I don't know, pay the six hundred

1201
00:53:03,520 --> 00:53:05,360
Speaker 1: dollars back and let's just move on. I don't know.

1202
00:53:05,440 --> 00:53:07,840
Speaker 3: Look, but it's not a ton of money, and I

1203
00:53:07,840 --> 00:53:10,799
Speaker 3: don't think he needs it. But it is kind of

1204
00:53:10,840 --> 00:53:13,440
Speaker 3: weird that this sort of thing happened. I think the

1205
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:18,120
Speaker 3: bigger issue for me is it's just like I have seen.

1206
00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,799
Speaker 2: How do I say this exactly? Like, there's just no

1207
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,560
Speaker 2: denying it. MMA is a very right wing sport. It

1208
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:26,080
Speaker 2: just is.

1209
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 3: The people in it largely lean to the right. I

1210
00:53:29,200 --> 00:53:31,600
Speaker 3: think that the media does not, but the fans do.

1211
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:34,680
Speaker 3: I think that the people in charge of it largely do.

1212
00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 3: The fighters clearly are.

1213
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:37,840
Speaker 2: And the reason you know that's true is it's not

1214
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:38,839
Speaker 2: just true in the United States.

1215
00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,120
Speaker 3: It's quite literally true in Brazil as well, and I'm

1216
00:53:42,120 --> 00:53:43,440
Speaker 3: guessing it's going to be true in a lot of

1217
00:53:43,480 --> 00:53:46,359
Speaker 3: other countries on top of it. So I have seen

1218
00:53:46,400 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 3: people try to argue the opposite that it's like, oh,

1219
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:50,840
Speaker 3: there's so many different nations I participate, it's got this

1220
00:53:51,640 --> 00:53:54,640
Speaker 3: got this kind of progressive worldview. Yeah, no, it doesn't.

1221
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 3: It's the exact opposite BC topic.

1222
00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:00,000
Speaker 1: That's funny. That's funny you framed it that way, because

1223
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,480
Speaker 1: because before you keep going, maybe this is the perfect

1224
00:54:03,480 --> 00:54:07,200
Speaker 1: transition into some Dana White talk. But it's like a

1225
00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,560
Speaker 1: lot of the negative feedback whenever you give an opinion

1226
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,080
Speaker 1: on something like this Dana White situation comes oh, you

1227
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 1: left this, you know, oh because of you, And I'm like, dude,

1228
00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:17,399
Speaker 1: you don't even know how I vote or what I'm

1229
00:54:17,440 --> 00:54:20,480
Speaker 1: registered to. I don't look at this these debates as political.

1230
00:54:20,840 --> 00:54:22,880
Speaker 1: We look at this Dana White slap situation as a

1231
00:54:22,920 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 1: political debate, like. I hate that it gets framed like

1232
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:28,200
Speaker 1: that because when I look at mma, I don't look

1233
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,480
Speaker 1: at it from oh, we have a problem on political beliefs.

1234
00:54:30,600 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 1: I look at it from we have an extremist problem

1235
00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 1: that to me isn't necessarily divined by support of any

1236
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:38,319
Speaker 1: one side of the politics. In a lot of ways,

1237
00:54:38,320 --> 00:54:42,560
Speaker 1: it's just, you know, ignoring all politics, which sometimes I

1238
00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:44,920
Speaker 1: do myself, luke to it for a certain mental sanity.

1239
00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:49,280
Speaker 1: But this is just a sometimes a debate over decency

1240
00:54:49,320 --> 00:54:51,040
Speaker 1: and stuff. In reality, I.

1241
00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:52,960
Speaker 3: Would agree in general, but I think you can't be

1242
00:54:53,280 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 3: I'm not I'm not saying you're naive, but I think

1243
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:56,799
Speaker 3: we have to be very clear eight about it.

1244
00:54:57,320 --> 00:54:59,719
Speaker 2: We also live at a time here in the United States,

1245
00:54:59,760 --> 00:55:00,520
Speaker 2: and I'm saying this is.

1246
00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,239
Speaker 3: True in Brazil and a lot of other countries as well,

1247
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,239
Speaker 3: where we have layered onto because there's some things that

1248
00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:07,799
Speaker 3: used to be like, hey, we can have debates over

1249
00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:10,760
Speaker 3: like how we bud balance the budget or what defense

1250
00:55:10,800 --> 00:55:13,600
Speaker 3: spending should be. And then there were these very sort

1251
00:55:13,640 --> 00:55:17,240
Speaker 3: of culture war issues that used to be abortion for example.

1252
00:55:17,280 --> 00:55:18,840
Speaker 3: And it's by the way it still is in many ways,

1253
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:20,560
Speaker 3: but you get the idea like there was sort of

1254
00:55:20,600 --> 00:55:22,759
Speaker 3: a set of core issues that defined the culture war,

1255
00:55:22,960 --> 00:55:25,880
Speaker 3: but there was this vast space that really wasn't necessarily

1256
00:55:25,920 --> 00:55:28,400
Speaker 3: part of it. And the culture wars have eaten everything

1257
00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:31,880
Speaker 3: everything they have moved into and I think now we

1258
00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:34,320
Speaker 3: live in a world whatever side of the political alue

1259
00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:37,200
Speaker 3: you find yourself, a lot of people have just layered

1260
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:40,880
Speaker 3: onto identity all of these other things that wouldn't we

1261
00:55:40,920 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 3: wouldn't necessary when we grew up. They were not part

1262
00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:45,719
Speaker 3: of the culture wars. That's why sometimes we look at it,

1263
00:55:45,760 --> 00:55:47,680
Speaker 3: we're like, how is the culture war thing? But it

1264
00:55:47,719 --> 00:55:50,320
Speaker 3: has moved in this direction because identity has been layered

1265
00:55:50,360 --> 00:55:53,520
Speaker 3: in so many directions that now it just becomes that

1266
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:56,000
Speaker 3: even though it doesn't necessarily need to be that way.

1267
00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:59,960
Speaker 1: I'm Larry of anybody who overly aggressively identifies with war

1268
00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:02,440
Speaker 1: inside of a political divide, Luke, those are the people

1269
00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:04,560
Speaker 1: that scare me more than the people who don't even

1270
00:56:04,600 --> 00:56:06,040
Speaker 1: know there's a political divide going on.

1271
00:56:06,120 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 2: But that's just my stay in your house.

1272
00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:12,480
Speaker 1: You know, it'd have to be a situational thing, Luke.

1273
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,000
Speaker 1: Do I know him as he's been nice to me?

1274
00:56:14,120 --> 00:56:16,640
Speaker 1: Did he give me stolen money? Like the Farbes? Did?

1275
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:17,200
Speaker 2: You know?

1276
00:56:17,360 --> 00:56:19,279
Speaker 1: But no, I would not. I mean, is this the

1277
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:21,880
Speaker 1: equivalent like if if Trump was run out of this

1278
00:56:21,920 --> 00:56:24,160
Speaker 1: country and like Colby Coventon put it up, put him

1279
00:56:24,200 --> 00:56:26,919
Speaker 1: up in his like condo over the border in Mexico.

1280
00:56:26,640 --> 00:56:29,280
Speaker 2: Or something like, is this roughly equivalent? Yes?

1281
00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,799
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, I mean it's wild, Luke. You can make

1282
00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:34,240
Speaker 1: a movie out of it. Hopefully Ian Heinish is starring

1283
00:56:34,239 --> 00:56:36,000
Speaker 1: in it, because when they make a movie about his

1284
00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:39,359
Speaker 1: life story, Luke called Backzilla, it's gonna be great. Right.

1285
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,360
Speaker 2: Well, have you ever heard him talk about his time

1286
00:56:41,520 --> 00:56:42,120
Speaker 2: at Rikers.

1287
00:56:42,480 --> 00:56:44,680
Speaker 1: It's like the most under reported story. And I know

1288
00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:46,880
Speaker 1: a couple of major sites have done. I know a

1289
00:56:46,880 --> 00:56:48,800
Speaker 1: couple of major sites have done the kind of features

1290
00:56:48,800 --> 00:56:51,160
Speaker 1: that give us the knowledge we know up to this point.

1291
00:56:51,360 --> 00:56:54,359
Speaker 1: I want the full movie treatment because it's insanity how

1292
00:56:54,400 --> 00:56:57,320
Speaker 1: he went from that to being like a pretty decent

1293
00:56:57,600 --> 00:56:58,799
Speaker 1: top twenty fighter, you know.

1294
00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,960
Speaker 3: I mean it taught himself Spanish, was a mule for

1295
00:57:03,160 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 3: the Colombian drug cartel, lived on the beach and homeless,

1296
00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:10,080
Speaker 3: basically in Spain. Went to Spanish prison, got I think,

1297
00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:12,040
Speaker 3: either transferred or tried to come back and got caught again.

1298
00:57:12,040 --> 00:57:13,319
Speaker 3: I can't remember that par but it ended up at

1299
00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:15,680
Speaker 3: fucking Rikers Island. And for folks, wo don't realize this.

1300
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,200
Speaker 2: Rikers Island is not a place that they send bad

1301
00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 2: people Rikers. I mean some bad people end up there.

1302
00:57:22,040 --> 00:57:25,320
Speaker 2: It's a pre trial detention center. Folks don't realize that

1303
00:57:25,320 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 2: because you hear Rikers.

1304
00:57:26,240 --> 00:57:29,439
Speaker 3: You think about all the times it's been in movies, right,

1305
00:57:29,520 --> 00:57:31,120
Speaker 3: and it's like, oh, that's what they send the worst

1306
00:57:31,120 --> 00:57:33,919
Speaker 3: of the worst. No, dude, Rikers Island is a pre

1307
00:57:34,000 --> 00:57:37,240
Speaker 3: trial detention center, meaning if you can't make bond because

1308
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:39,320
Speaker 3: you're too fucking broke, they just ship your ass over

1309
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:43,960
Speaker 3: to Rikers and is massive overcrowding and there's tons of

1310
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:46,240
Speaker 3: fucked up people there. And I think he said he

1311
00:57:46,360 --> 00:57:49,560
Speaker 3: was targeted to be attacked like the day he got

1312
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:52,600
Speaker 3: pulled out of Rikers and sent wherever he was else

1313
00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:56,320
Speaker 3: in that process of getting himself out of the prison system,

1314
00:57:56,360 --> 00:57:59,120
Speaker 3: like he was this close to having like a life

1315
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 3: or death encounter there.

1316
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:05,240
Speaker 2: It's his story. If you've never read it, is bananas bananas,

1317
00:58:05,840 --> 00:58:06,720
Speaker 2: all right, b C.

1318
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:07,840
Speaker 3: We don't have to spend a ton of time on

1319
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:09,760
Speaker 3: this because I think we've kind of litigated this a

1320
00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:12,480
Speaker 3: million different ways. But there is something of an update

1321
00:58:12,480 --> 00:58:14,439
Speaker 3: to the Dana White situation, such as you can call

1322
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:18,120
Speaker 3: it that. The California Legislative Women's Caucus, so this is

1323
00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:20,760
Speaker 3: a member of people who serve in the California State Assembly,

1324
00:58:21,320 --> 00:58:24,320
Speaker 3: have called for UFC President Dana White to be removed

1325
00:58:24,320 --> 00:58:26,360
Speaker 3: from his position in a letter they wrote to Endeavor

1326
00:58:26,480 --> 00:58:29,360
Speaker 3: CEO Are Emmanuel. Quote this is them saying it.

1327
00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:29,920
Speaker 2: Quote.

1328
00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:33,080
Speaker 3: We write with deep concern about the recent violent video

1329
00:58:33,120 --> 00:58:36,320
Speaker 3: we have seen online from the UFC President Dana White.

1330
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:39,360
Speaker 3: Our caucus, which is both by Cameron and bipartisan, is

1331
00:58:39,360 --> 00:58:41,640
Speaker 3: composed of women across the state of California who are

1332
00:58:41,680 --> 00:58:43,800
Speaker 3: committed to creating better lives for women and girls. Blah

1333
00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:48,920
Speaker 3: blah blah. Given mister White's previous remarks against domestic partner violence.

1334
00:58:49,240 --> 00:58:52,040
Speaker 3: We believed that Endeavor in the UFC shared this commitment

1335
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:55,000
Speaker 3: to safety, respect and accountability. You yourself have written extensively

1336
00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:56,720
Speaker 3: about the need to speak out and act when you

1337
00:58:56,760 --> 00:58:59,160
Speaker 3: see things are not in line with our values, which

1338
00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,200
Speaker 3: is kind of funny. And yet we have seen the

1339
00:59:01,280 --> 00:59:03,520
Speaker 3: video of UFC President Dana White where he strikes his

1340
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:06,800
Speaker 3: wife in New Year's Eve celebration with closed fist. I'm

1341
00:59:06,800 --> 00:59:07,560
Speaker 3: not sure it was closed.

1342
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:09,000
Speaker 2: Was it closed? That's a little bit debatable.

1343
00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:12,120
Speaker 3: We were appalled. It was alarming, to say the least.

1344
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:14,880
Speaker 3: The letter goes on to cite Emmanuel's own words surrounding

1345
00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:16,880
Speaker 3: they need to speak up against domestic violence, highlighting the

1346
00:59:16,920 --> 00:59:19,800
Speaker 3: quote hypocrisy end quote that comes from with the Endeavor

1347
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:23,600
Speaker 3: CEO labeling sense as silence as quote not an option

1348
00:59:24,040 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 3: end quote, but demonstrating the opposite. Following the altercation between

1349
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:29,960
Speaker 3: White and his wife. The news about Endeavor is interesting

1350
00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:33,400
Speaker 3: here because they have been massively vocal previously and now

1351
00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:37,040
Speaker 3: they're saying nothing BC. This is not the same to me.

1352
00:59:37,040 --> 00:59:38,800
Speaker 3: I remember during the COVID thing when they were pushing

1353
00:59:38,800 --> 00:59:41,520
Speaker 3: through the Tachi Palace or whatever, it was yeah, and

1354
00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,160
Speaker 3: they had they had like people in the United States.

1355
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,400
Speaker 3: I think it was Barbara Boxer and other folks involved

1356
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:51,080
Speaker 3: in the United States Congress speaking out, and that ended

1357
00:59:51,160 --> 00:59:54,800
Speaker 3: up I think catching Disney's attention. I'm not saying this

1358
00:59:54,840 --> 00:59:57,480
Speaker 3: is utterly insignificant, but I'm not of the belief that

1359
00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:01,560
Speaker 3: this will lead to the power rokers in place, kind

1360
01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:04,000
Speaker 3: of putting a limb, don't.

1361
01:00:04,000 --> 01:00:05,640
Speaker 1: I don't really buy the this yeah, and this is

1362
01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:07,960
Speaker 1: where people are really missing some things out. So I

1363
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:12,000
Speaker 1: shared this news partially because I was just so happy,

1364
01:00:12,080 --> 01:00:15,840
Speaker 1: surprised that ESPNS actually wrote about this and was covering it,

1365
01:00:15,880 --> 01:00:18,920
Speaker 1: and you know, I had, really, to be fair, really

1366
01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:23,000
Speaker 1: been disappointed and their overall reaction to this and their communication,

1367
01:00:23,080 --> 01:00:25,760
Speaker 1: their transparency, all that stuff that we talked about. So

1368
01:00:25,760 --> 01:00:28,240
Speaker 1: it's really more about me about like what's fair in

1369
01:00:28,320 --> 01:00:31,520
Speaker 1: terms of like how people respond, than it is is

1370
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 1: this a reputable organization? Do they have a reputable claim?

1371
01:00:34,360 --> 01:00:36,800
Speaker 1: And can we keep banging the drums to get Dana

1372
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,040
Speaker 1: White fired? Like that's not what I want. It's not

1373
01:00:39,320 --> 01:00:41,040
Speaker 1: that's not the endgame that I'm fighting for. So when

1374
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,160
Speaker 1: you share it and you get hammered out by people

1375
01:00:43,160 --> 01:00:45,320
Speaker 1: on you know, all sides of it. It's like, I

1376
01:00:45,360 --> 01:00:46,920
Speaker 1: can't believe we have to come on here one final

1377
01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:50,280
Speaker 1: time and actually define certain things for people that don't

1378
01:00:50,280 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 1: get it. This is this is not about him losing

1379
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:56,360
Speaker 1: his job or even to my belief, losing you know,

1380
01:00:56,480 --> 01:00:58,920
Speaker 1: large amounts of money and fines or anything like that regard.

1381
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:04,560
Speaker 1: It's about being transparent, stepping up, not setting dangerous precedents,

1382
01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 1: and it's about what's fair. And that's why even comparing

1383
01:01:07,880 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 1: fighters to Dana situations, even though Dana's situation has its

1384
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:14,760
Speaker 1: own level of layers to it, it's about the image

1385
01:01:14,760 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 1: and the look, and when you're the leader of an organization,

1386
01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,040
Speaker 1: and the consistency and reputation of other partners and how

1387
01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:23,880
Speaker 1: they respond to things from like you mentioned Ari Emmanuel

1388
01:01:23,920 --> 01:01:26,800
Speaker 1: of Endeavor going hard after Kyrie and the public and

1389
01:01:26,880 --> 01:01:29,600
Speaker 1: now not mentioning this and you know, the same accusations

1390
01:01:29,600 --> 01:01:33,000
Speaker 1: we threw at ESPN for most of this season on

1391
01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:36,840
Speaker 1: the coverage of this. It's it's frustrating and disappointment and disappointing,

1392
01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:39,560
Speaker 1: but it's to me, it's not about should Dana come

1393
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,840
Speaker 1: or go. I want them to stay, but I do

1394
01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 1: want major change to be you know, in a message

1395
01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:47,440
Speaker 1: to be sent, and the you know, the deafening silence

1396
01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:51,120
Speaker 1: on that from everybody is I mean, wow, you know,

1397
01:01:51,640 --> 01:01:53,560
Speaker 1: it's just you know, when when you see words in

1398
01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:56,520
Speaker 1: here like hypocrisy, I agree with it. And look, you

1399
01:01:56,520 --> 01:01:58,400
Speaker 1: know on the flip side of people are gonna then come back.

1400
01:01:58,480 --> 01:02:00,320
Speaker 1: Well didn't you guys just call it? Jervonte. It's like,

1401
01:02:00,360 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 1: I can't believe we have to continue to, you know,

1402
01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:05,680
Speaker 1: settle the differences between that. You know, we are talking

1403
01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 1: about a president of a multi billion dollar publicly traded

1404
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,240
Speaker 1: company who has certain precedents set on when people under

1405
01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:17,080
Speaker 1: his flag get in trouble, and now just ignoring this,

1406
01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 1: to me is the real story. Nothing else, you know,

1407
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 1: nothing else of what about his wife? It's like I

1408
01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:23,200
Speaker 1: can't believe I have to come out here and actually

1409
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,640
Speaker 1: explain that, No, what she did is not right. But

1410
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:29,360
Speaker 1: this has nothing to do with men's rights in my opinion,

1411
01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,600
Speaker 1: because of how it played out and how damaging that

1412
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,240
Speaker 1: looks that video. Did she strike first, yes, So if

1413
01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:38,920
Speaker 1: Dana wanted to press charges, yes, If you wanted to

1414
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:43,880
Speaker 1: sever the relationship, yes, But his reaction, the severity of it,

1415
01:02:43,920 --> 01:02:48,360
Speaker 1: the multiple file follow up shots, the quickness, and that's

1416
01:02:48,520 --> 01:02:50,600
Speaker 1: you know, that's the story here. I mean, you know,

1417
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:52,600
Speaker 1: Ariel said it best, You've set it best a few times.

1418
01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:56,800
Speaker 1: But Dana's not even defending himself. So why is everybody

1419
01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:01,280
Speaker 1: collectively in the in sort of the combat world that

1420
01:03:01,320 --> 01:03:02,920
Speaker 1: are in the minority on here that are looking at

1421
01:03:02,960 --> 01:03:05,439
Speaker 1: this as no big deal? You know, I just don't

1422
01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 1: understand the overall response. So I thought this was a

1423
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:11,120
Speaker 1: good thing that people are keeping the topic prescient. But no,

1424
01:03:11,200 --> 01:03:14,120
Speaker 1: I'm not like gonna line up with the California Legislative

1425
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 1: Women's Caucus and support Dana must go. But things do

1426
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:20,960
Speaker 1: need to change from a maturity level and from a

1427
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:24,160
Speaker 1: corporate level for all of those partners involved in this

1428
01:03:24,480 --> 01:03:28,600
Speaker 1: of how you react to, you know, very real and

1429
01:03:28,720 --> 01:03:31,760
Speaker 1: very damaging public situations. It's like in that regard, just

1430
01:03:31,800 --> 01:03:35,080
Speaker 1: the straight up ignoring of it and coming right out

1431
01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:38,640
Speaker 1: with power slap commercials. I mean, I'm dude, I still

1432
01:03:38,640 --> 01:03:41,360
Speaker 1: don't even believe this is real life, Luke, And it's like, okay,

1433
01:03:41,360 --> 01:03:42,920
Speaker 1: we'll be see what do you want Dana to do?

1434
01:03:43,040 --> 01:03:45,120
Speaker 1: Didn't he already come out? He did? He did already

1435
01:03:45,120 --> 01:03:47,280
Speaker 1: come out and do what he had to do. But

1436
01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 1: the people around him, whose job is to be just

1437
01:03:49,120 --> 01:03:52,240
Speaker 1: as mature and these you know, really dark situations, have

1438
01:03:52,320 --> 01:03:56,040
Speaker 1: done nothing. So they all become you know, looked at

1439
01:03:56,080 --> 01:03:57,400
Speaker 1: like they're in on it. You know, just we're just

1440
01:03:57,440 --> 01:03:58,880
Speaker 1: gonna ignore this. It's not a big deal. No, it

1441
01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:02,919
Speaker 1: actually is a big deal. And you know, the more

1442
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:06,200
Speaker 1: that you ignore this, it's like you said, should Dana

1443
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:07,760
Speaker 1: be there? You know, I think the best thing that

1444
01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:10,720
Speaker 1: should happen for UFC, if they wanted to cover it up,

1445
01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:12,480
Speaker 1: which it seems they want to do, is if there

1446
01:04:12,520 --> 01:04:14,640
Speaker 1: was a fight right after that news broke and they

1447
01:04:14,680 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 1: had they were forced to just make a comment about

1448
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:19,040
Speaker 1: you just make a comment about it. We're done talking, right.

1449
01:04:19,440 --> 01:04:22,360
Speaker 1: It's just bizarre to me, Luke, that this is the stance.

1450
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:24,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't have much to add up in

1451
01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:25,760
Speaker 2: the sense of what we already said, but I just

1452
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,560
Speaker 2: think folks need to understand something. This is not a

1453
01:04:28,920 --> 01:04:30,640
Speaker 2: like the United States is not very.

1454
01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:33,440
Speaker 3: Good about punishing rich and powerful people. We're not very

1455
01:04:33,480 --> 01:04:36,320
Speaker 3: good about punishing elites, right, people Like in two thousand

1456
01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:38,360
Speaker 3: and eight, I mean, none of the bankers went to jail.

1457
01:04:38,440 --> 01:04:42,760
Speaker 3: The sacklers help unleash this terrible opioid crisis, knowing full

1458
01:04:42,760 --> 01:04:46,680
Speaker 3: well their culpability, and they will largely skate away from this.

1459
01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:48,640
Speaker 3: And I could go on and on and on. We

1460
01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:51,480
Speaker 3: don't We're not good at punishing elites. We're not good

1461
01:04:51,520 --> 01:04:53,600
Speaker 3: at punishing rich and powerful people, which is kind of funny.

1462
01:04:53,600 --> 01:04:56,840
Speaker 3: It's like Dana very much, you know. And again BC

1463
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:58,640
Speaker 3: has not called for his job. I have not called

1464
01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:00,440
Speaker 3: for his job because I'm just I'm not I've not

1465
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:03,720
Speaker 3: been convinced that that is exactly the right answer. All

1466
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:06,160
Speaker 3: we ever wanted was into acknowledge was a problem publicly.

1467
01:05:06,520 --> 01:05:08,160
Speaker 3: And so they want to do something about it and

1468
01:05:08,160 --> 01:05:11,280
Speaker 3: and like try to have a reasonable dialogue about it,

1469
01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:11,600
Speaker 3: and they.

1470
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:13,880
Speaker 2: Just refuse to do even that. I think that's the

1471
01:05:13,920 --> 01:05:16,040
Speaker 2: part that got us, not so much that they need to.

1472
01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:17,640
Speaker 3: Get rid of data, because by the way, there's this

1473
01:05:17,720 --> 01:05:19,760
Speaker 3: bullshit thing going around. It's like all the media wants,

1474
01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:22,960
Speaker 3: the MMA, media wants to cancel data. Show me make

1475
01:05:23,000 --> 01:05:26,240
Speaker 3: an itemized list of how many people called for his job.

1476
01:05:26,320 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 3: It's like one or two people and me and BC's

1477
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:31,640
Speaker 3: name ain't on that fucking list. That is a made up,

1478
01:05:32,000 --> 01:05:36,440
Speaker 3: manufactured lie, flatly no more, no less.

1479
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:39,120
Speaker 1: And for this and for these you know, these woke

1480
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,560
Speaker 1: media that that we get labeled as because we're taking

1481
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:43,600
Speaker 1: a stance on this or you know whatever that means.

1482
01:05:44,040 --> 01:05:47,360
Speaker 1: It's it's about accountability. We all live in this puddle

1483
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:50,080
Speaker 1: too of combat sports, which is which can get very

1484
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 1: grimy at times. And you know, I don't always love that.

1485
01:05:53,400 --> 01:05:56,000
Speaker 1: There are there are parts in public, you know, polite

1486
01:05:56,000 --> 01:05:57,560
Speaker 1: society when you say, oh, what do you do for

1487
01:05:57,560 --> 01:06:00,160
Speaker 1: a living? You know, it's like, I'm a reporter an

1488
01:06:00,160 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 1: analyst and you know, mixed martial arts and boxing, and

1489
01:06:02,680 --> 01:06:06,439
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, really, okay, your kids play with my kids?

1490
01:06:06,440 --> 01:06:08,360
Speaker 1: You know, I know that's extreme and that's ridiculous and

1491
01:06:08,760 --> 01:06:10,320
Speaker 1: f them, and for the most part, I do. But

1492
01:06:10,360 --> 01:06:13,440
Speaker 1: it's it's like when shit like this just goes unchecked,

1493
01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:18,480
Speaker 1: like not a big deal, We'll just move on. Yeah, yeah, No, No,

1494
01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:20,280
Speaker 1: I'm gonna raise my people. I'm gonna raise my hand

1495
01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:22,760
Speaker 1: and saying not in my house, not my not in

1496
01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:26,880
Speaker 1: this house, not whatever whatever circle of leverage or or

1497
01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:29,680
Speaker 1: platform I have, not in my house, not cool.

1498
01:06:30,120 --> 01:06:32,040
Speaker 3: Fair enough, And I was just I'll finish off on

1499
01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:33,760
Speaker 3: this and we can move on, which is just that

1500
01:06:34,080 --> 01:06:36,400
Speaker 3: people see themselves in Dana a little bit like, oh,

1501
01:06:36,440 --> 01:06:38,800
Speaker 3: the guy who was the you know, the bellman who

1502
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:40,600
Speaker 3: made good and got rich, and like that's fine. There's

1503
01:06:40,600 --> 01:06:45,360
Speaker 3: nothing wrong with being motivated or otherwise inspired or having

1504
01:06:45,360 --> 01:06:48,920
Speaker 3: an appreciation for his personal journey as a successful executive.

1505
01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:50,880
Speaker 3: I don't think there's anything wrong with that. But you

1506
01:06:50,920 --> 01:06:53,680
Speaker 3: have to understand he's up here now and you're down there.

1507
01:06:53,800 --> 01:06:55,040
Speaker 3: He's not one of you.

1508
01:06:55,640 --> 01:06:58,480
Speaker 2: He's not a guy who's just a regular blue collar guy.

1509
01:06:58,960 --> 01:07:01,960
Speaker 2: He has and he has access to a world that

1510
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:04,520
Speaker 2: you don't have access to, and he has the ability

1511
01:07:04,560 --> 01:07:06,960
Speaker 2: to have ESPN not weigh in, by the way, I

1512
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:08,440
Speaker 2: don't think they just decided not to weigh in.

1513
01:07:08,440 --> 01:07:10,800
Speaker 3: I'm sure that there's a back channel pressure in campaign

1514
01:07:11,000 --> 01:07:12,600
Speaker 3: to make sure that it doesn't happen. By the way,

1515
01:07:12,760 --> 01:07:15,080
Speaker 3: just gonna be very clear about that. That's my personal opinion.

1516
01:07:15,080 --> 01:07:17,400
Speaker 3: But I'm sure that it's happening to make sure Endeavor

1517
01:07:17,440 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 3: doesn't say anything, to make sure that the people who

1518
01:07:19,480 --> 01:07:21,200
Speaker 3: are his assets and people.

1519
01:07:21,000 --> 01:07:21,440
Speaker 2: Like Steven A.

1520
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 3: Smith totally cover for it and say it's no big deal,

1521
01:07:23,520 --> 01:07:26,440
Speaker 3: look around. He can do that because he is incredibly

1522
01:07:26,560 --> 01:07:28,800
Speaker 3: rich and powerful. He is now part of a class

1523
01:07:29,000 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 3: that all of the rest of us are not a

1524
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,120
Speaker 3: part of, and in the class that he's in, the

1525
01:07:33,160 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 3: part of the class that he's in, we don't really

1526
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:37,840
Speaker 3: for the most part, we don't really punish people like that.

1527
01:07:38,080 --> 01:07:40,320
Speaker 3: Whether you think he should be or he shouldn't be,

1528
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:43,480
Speaker 3: it's almost irrelevant because he's in the space where it

1529
01:07:43,480 --> 01:07:46,360
Speaker 3: doesn't even matter anymore. We don't really bring people like

1530
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:48,320
Speaker 3: that to account hardly at all. It has to be

1531
01:07:48,800 --> 01:07:51,280
Speaker 3: like the most egregious shit ever, and even then it

1532
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,760
Speaker 3: doesn't really work. So this whole idea like, oh, Dan

1533
01:07:53,880 --> 01:07:55,560
Speaker 3: is one of us, he used to be. He used

1534
01:07:55,600 --> 01:07:57,880
Speaker 3: to be, and there's nothing wrong with his success. But

1535
01:07:57,960 --> 01:08:01,000
Speaker 3: once you get what he's got, he's not one of

1536
01:08:01,000 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 3: you anymore. He's a completely different level and just accept

1537
01:08:04,680 --> 01:08:05,280
Speaker 3: and respect that.

1538
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:07,200
Speaker 1: And I think because he's the face of the company,

1539
01:08:07,200 --> 01:08:09,360
Speaker 1: there is a responsibility within the company now to try

1540
01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,840
Speaker 1: to use this for good, educate the fighters more, I

1541
01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:14,160
Speaker 1: mean more. You know, there's there's there's ways you can

1542
01:08:14,200 --> 01:08:17,479
Speaker 1: go by responding where you can turn this in the

1543
01:08:17,479 --> 01:08:19,720
Speaker 1: long run into something different and how it's remembered. But

1544
01:08:20,280 --> 01:08:23,479
Speaker 1: maybe that's all, you know, Maybe that's all doing a

1545
01:08:23,479 --> 01:08:25,559
Speaker 1: big public song and dance just to look okay, Luke,

1546
01:08:25,560 --> 01:08:27,559
Speaker 1: and maybe that's what they're fighting against. I don't know, dude,

1547
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:30,240
Speaker 1: it's just been it's been. It's been rough. It's been rough, dude,

1548
01:08:30,280 --> 01:08:32,120
Speaker 1: you know. And I think there is a difference, when

1549
01:08:32,160 --> 01:08:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, between athletes, because if it was an athlete,

1550
01:08:34,040 --> 01:08:36,400
Speaker 1: they'd get hammered. And by the way, you know, every

1551
01:08:36,400 --> 01:08:40,080
Speaker 1: misstep Dravonte's head, he's facing serious legal issue. And you know,

1552
01:08:40,160 --> 01:08:43,000
Speaker 1: this most recent situation is hard to compare directly because

1553
01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:45,639
Speaker 1: there were changes in his own story that that really

1554
01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:48,519
Speaker 1: changed that whole situation for you going, you know, apples

1555
01:08:48,520 --> 01:08:51,960
Speaker 1: for apples. It's just it's disappointing altogether. But I hope

1556
01:08:51,960 --> 01:08:54,040
Speaker 1: we learn from this as a sport and as you know,

1557
01:08:54,040 --> 01:08:55,439
Speaker 1: and how we cover it and how we react.

1558
01:08:55,479 --> 01:08:59,840
Speaker 2: But maybe not, Luke, probably not.

1559
01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:02,920
Speaker 3: Probably not all right. Topic number five, let's just some

1560
01:09:03,000 --> 01:09:06,519
Speaker 3: quick hitters, real quickly. So Mike Jackson, unfortunately for him,

1561
01:09:06,520 --> 01:09:09,840
Speaker 3: has been cut from the UFC. He was released, but

1562
01:09:09,960 --> 01:09:12,000
Speaker 3: he now wants to box Jake Shields.

1563
01:09:12,080 --> 01:09:12,400
Speaker 1: Quote.

1564
01:09:12,400 --> 01:09:13,479
Speaker 2: My mindset wasn't.

1565
01:09:13,320 --> 01:09:15,280
Speaker 3: To beat the f out of Jake Shields. It was

1566
01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:16,960
Speaker 3: to not get punched in the face. Speaking of course,

1567
01:09:17,000 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 3: their first altercation, he spoke to anime fighting. So he's

1568
01:09:20,120 --> 01:09:21,760
Speaker 3: here in my DMS talking a bunch of s. But

1569
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:23,360
Speaker 3: then his tune changed and he was like, do you

1570
01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:25,720
Speaker 3: want me to come to Houston to box? I'll come

1571
01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:28,360
Speaker 3: box you. I haven't responded yet, but that's my new thing.

1572
01:09:28,360 --> 01:09:30,400
Speaker 3: He's gonna come to Houston. We're gonna find somewhere to meet,

1573
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:32,240
Speaker 3: and I'll beat the f out of him for the

1574
01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:33,080
Speaker 3: s that he did.

1575
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:33,320
Speaker 2: BC.

1576
01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:36,960
Speaker 3: Your level of interest in a Mike Jackson Jake Shield's

1577
01:09:36,960 --> 01:09:39,080
Speaker 3: boxing fight in twenty twenty three.

1578
01:09:40,120 --> 01:09:43,280
Speaker 1: I mean it's you know, it's low. It's certainly low.

1579
01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:45,400
Speaker 1: This is in the you know, I'll never forget that

1580
01:09:45,439 --> 01:09:48,360
Speaker 1: time on the Mass Pike, Luke I ninety when I

1581
01:09:48,400 --> 01:09:50,559
Speaker 1: stopped at the gas station. I was like, dude, they

1582
01:09:50,760 --> 01:09:54,920
Speaker 1: insert the cheese inside the hot dog before putting it

1583
01:09:54,960 --> 01:09:58,120
Speaker 1: on the griller, like it's pre inserted with like a

1584
01:09:58,200 --> 01:10:01,080
Speaker 1: you know, a needle gun. And it was. It was

1585
01:10:01,200 --> 01:10:03,080
Speaker 1: next level, Luke. And and you know I had to

1586
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:05,240
Speaker 1: try it once, you know, and it probably did a

1587
01:10:05,280 --> 01:10:07,639
Speaker 1: repeable damage because I tried it again and again.

1588
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:08,160
Speaker 2: Here's the thing.

1589
01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,120
Speaker 3: Does Mike Jackson win that one? And everyone's like oh,

1590
01:10:10,200 --> 01:10:12,479
Speaker 3: Jake Shields has terrible hands, And I'm like, well.

1591
01:10:12,320 --> 01:10:15,720
Speaker 1: Well there's this, there's this mini element of redemption. If

1592
01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:20,000
Speaker 1: you believe that Jackson's trash talk online shouldn't have led

1593
01:10:20,000 --> 01:10:22,760
Speaker 1: to a larger guy pinning him down and embarrassing and

1594
01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:24,840
Speaker 1: beating the shit out of him. I don't really, you know,

1595
01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,040
Speaker 1: care enough to try to get in.

1596
01:10:27,439 --> 01:10:29,360
Speaker 2: It was definitely, but it wasn't much of a beating.

1597
01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:32,240
Speaker 1: Creatively, is this a cool way to spin it off

1598
01:10:32,240 --> 01:10:34,439
Speaker 1: and do something where they get a decent amount of

1599
01:10:34,439 --> 01:10:36,800
Speaker 1: eyeballs and maybe both both get paid for this? In

1600
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:39,639
Speaker 1: that regard, there's a there could be a happy ending

1601
01:10:39,840 --> 01:10:41,479
Speaker 1: either way. That happy ending is going to be gross

1602
01:10:41,479 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 1: and disgusting, Luke, so me, you know, that's that's the

1603
01:10:43,439 --> 01:10:46,559
Speaker 1: whole that's the whole correlation between the the pre inserted

1604
01:10:46,640 --> 01:10:48,599
Speaker 1: cheese on the hot dogs. You know, in my senior

1605
01:10:48,920 --> 01:10:52,360
Speaker 1: year high school cafeteria, Luke, they sold pretzels with the cheese,

1606
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,240
Speaker 1: uh you know shot in beforehand as well.

1607
01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:56,719
Speaker 2: That's fucking gross.

1608
01:10:56,840 --> 01:10:59,440
Speaker 1: I know those are the those wre the Also.

1609
01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 3: Who's eating at the high school cafeteria senior year? What

1610
01:11:02,120 --> 01:11:03,479
Speaker 3: kind of a fucking chump are you?

1611
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:06,120
Speaker 1: I loaded up on study halls, Luke, so that I

1612
01:11:06,160 --> 01:11:08,160
Speaker 1: could just hang out in the cafeteria and just you.

1613
01:11:08,080 --> 01:11:10,360
Speaker 2: Know, so I went to college year.

1614
01:11:10,360 --> 01:11:13,599
Speaker 1: I ever tell you this, Yeah when you played pick

1615
01:11:13,680 --> 01:11:15,360
Speaker 1: up ball with Bruce Hornsby.

1616
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:15,720
Speaker 2: No, no, no no.

1617
01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:18,240
Speaker 3: So my senior year in high school, I went to college.

1618
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:21,920
Speaker 3: I did just a few classes at the regular high school,

1619
01:11:21,920 --> 01:11:23,880
Speaker 3: but I spent the majority of my time at the

1620
01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:25,240
Speaker 3: at Kennisaws State University.

1621
01:11:25,280 --> 01:11:25,880
Speaker 2: That let us.

1622
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:29,280
Speaker 1: Wow, yeah, dude, you were an achiever, bro. You went

1623
01:11:29,439 --> 01:11:30,479
Speaker 1: Ham after this.

1624
01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:31,000
Speaker 2: This is what I was.

1625
01:11:31,120 --> 01:11:32,639
Speaker 3: What I was going to point out was I always

1626
01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:34,840
Speaker 3: had lunch off campus because I either came. I either

1627
01:11:34,920 --> 01:11:37,680
Speaker 3: left before noon or I didn't get there till afternoon

1628
01:11:37,760 --> 01:11:38,599
Speaker 3: on my senior year.

1629
01:11:38,840 --> 01:11:41,240
Speaker 1: So either way, people in my school who had their

1630
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:43,640
Speaker 1: shit together knew that you could load up on all

1631
01:11:43,680 --> 01:11:45,479
Speaker 1: your credits in the first couple of years, so that

1632
01:11:46,720 --> 01:11:49,160
Speaker 1: particularly your senior year could be like you coming to

1633
01:11:49,160 --> 01:11:51,320
Speaker 1: school only for like two hours in the morning for

1634
01:11:51,360 --> 01:11:53,719
Speaker 1: your core courses you need, and then going off and working.

1635
01:11:53,960 --> 01:11:55,479
Speaker 1: And there were a lot of kids that had shit together,

1636
01:11:55,520 --> 01:11:57,160
Speaker 1: and they had their job at the grocery store or whatever,

1637
01:11:57,160 --> 01:11:59,000
Speaker 1: and they'd go right from school to there at the

1638
01:11:59,040 --> 01:12:02,840
Speaker 1: halfway mark. I was the lazy, ridiculous opposite who would

1639
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:05,800
Speaker 1: take the exact minimum amount of credits, load up each

1640
01:12:05,880 --> 01:12:08,520
Speaker 1: day with as many study halls as possible in the cafeteria,

1641
01:12:08,920 --> 01:12:12,200
Speaker 1: and you know, just just basically have a living podcast, Luke.

1642
01:12:12,280 --> 01:12:14,080
Speaker 1: So that was how I got here.

1643
01:12:14,360 --> 01:12:18,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, Uh, Diego Sanchez is gonna fight bare knuckle.

1644
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:20,960
Speaker 2: It's not They've now announced it. I guess the new

1645
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:25,519
Speaker 2: Mexico Commission's going to allow it. Yikes at BKFC Knucklemania three.

1646
01:12:25,560 --> 01:12:28,920
Speaker 3: This will be February seventeenth against Austin no doubt Trout

1647
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:31,000
Speaker 3: now BC. I was looking up his resume yesterday. I

1648
01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:33,240
Speaker 3: don't think he's had a real opponent since what torell

1649
01:12:33,320 --> 01:12:33,720
Speaker 3: Go Chet.

1650
01:12:34,280 --> 01:12:36,120
Speaker 1: It's been a long time. Yeah, when he's.

1651
01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:38,680
Speaker 2: Seventeen ish something like that. He's fought a bunch of

1652
01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:41,479
Speaker 2: numbers since then. He's thirty seven Austin Trout.

1653
01:12:42,280 --> 01:12:45,800
Speaker 3: How like is because when they announced this, Spout, I

1654
01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:47,960
Speaker 3: was like, this is a terrible fight for Diego and

1655
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:50,799
Speaker 3: they should not fucking do this. And now I'm like, well,

1656
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:53,720
Speaker 3: maybe Trout's washed, Like what's your sense of that?

1657
01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:57,280
Speaker 1: Well, look from that perspective, he never had. You know,

1658
01:12:57,360 --> 01:12:59,479
Speaker 1: he's never a power puncher, he never hit hard. He

1659
01:12:59,600 --> 01:13:02,000
Speaker 1: was a he was big for the weight class at

1660
01:13:02,000 --> 01:13:04,479
Speaker 1: one fifty four. He was a clever boxer and a southpaw,

1661
01:13:04,520 --> 01:13:05,960
Speaker 1: and you know, and I give him a lot of credit.

1662
01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:08,759
Speaker 1: He won a world title upset Miguel Coto at Madison

1663
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:12,519
Speaker 1: Square Garden, got into a monster fight with Canelo and

1664
01:13:12,560 --> 01:13:14,920
Speaker 1: he lost it. But I do think there's there's arguments

1665
01:13:14,960 --> 01:13:17,080
Speaker 1: to be made that he was in that fight. And

1666
01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:19,519
Speaker 1: maybe I'm the final truther or left who thinks he

1667
01:13:19,560 --> 01:13:24,000
Speaker 1: won that fight. But the point is this, he he was,

1668
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:25,720
Speaker 1: you know, he hit a wall where he was like

1669
01:13:25,800 --> 01:13:27,920
Speaker 1: a celebrity gate keeper at one fifty four. You know,

1670
01:13:27,960 --> 01:13:30,720
Speaker 1: he pushed both Charlo brothers in close fights where he

1671
01:13:30,800 --> 01:13:32,720
Speaker 1: kind of rallied back at the end, but he wasn't

1672
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:35,360
Speaker 1: going to get above that. And he tried a sort

1673
01:13:35,400 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 1: of last ditch attempt to cut down to welterweight and

1674
01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 1: he was calling out big names. It just never a

1675
01:13:40,320 --> 01:13:44,280
Speaker 1: materializer came together. So you know, I don't begrudge him

1676
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:47,200
Speaker 1: to try to make this transition and use his name

1677
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:51,160
Speaker 1: and headline and make some bucks. So you know, is

1678
01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:53,360
Speaker 1: this a long way of saying, long winded way of saying,

1679
01:13:53,640 --> 01:13:58,120
Speaker 1: maybe there's less chance Diego Sanchez has like a nightmarish

1680
01:13:58,360 --> 01:14:02,519
Speaker 1: you know, ridiculous. Just why did they ever do this situation?

1681
01:14:02,560 --> 01:14:05,519
Speaker 1: Because Trot's not a big puncher. Okay maybe, but bare

1682
01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:07,960
Speaker 1: knuckle fighting is just different to begin with in terms

1683
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,719
Speaker 1: of how you set up your power shots, and obviously

1684
01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:12,280
Speaker 1: we know how easy you can get carved up and

1685
01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:15,799
Speaker 1: get bloody. I just have a gross, gross ass feeling

1686
01:14:15,800 --> 01:14:18,160
Speaker 1: in my stomach about Diego Sanchez being in this fight

1687
01:14:18,560 --> 01:14:21,080
Speaker 1: that even doesn't allow me to get excited for Trout

1688
01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:24,160
Speaker 1: to like have one, you know, one final lap in

1689
01:14:24,200 --> 01:14:26,680
Speaker 1: the sunset here, Luke, I don't want to see this

1690
01:14:26,960 --> 01:14:29,000
Speaker 1: at all. I'm sure it's big in New Mexico, but

1691
01:14:29,120 --> 01:14:31,880
Speaker 1: this is it's pretty grimy, pretty.

1692
01:14:32,080 --> 01:14:34,240
Speaker 2: It's pretty grimy, pretty fucking grimy. So I guess we'll

1693
01:14:34,240 --> 01:14:36,200
Speaker 2: see how this goes. B C. I can't believe this

1694
01:14:36,240 --> 01:14:36,559
Speaker 2: is news.

1695
01:14:36,560 --> 01:14:38,200
Speaker 3: I don't really want to spend hardly any time talking

1696
01:14:38,200 --> 01:14:41,240
Speaker 3: about this because it's fucking stupid. Al jo Alja man

1697
01:14:41,240 --> 01:14:43,439
Speaker 3: Sterling has shut down talk about a UFC two eighty

1698
01:14:43,520 --> 01:14:44,080
Speaker 3: five return.

1699
01:14:44,160 --> 01:14:44,400
Speaker 2: I guess.

1700
01:14:44,439 --> 01:14:46,360
Speaker 3: Henry Sejudo said, well, we're looking. They're looking at the

1701
01:14:46,439 --> 01:14:49,000
Speaker 3: UFC is looking for a March time between him and

1702
01:14:49,080 --> 01:14:51,400
Speaker 3: al Joe. But al Joe was explicit last year it's

1703
01:14:51,400 --> 01:14:52,200
Speaker 3: gonna be till summer.

1704
01:14:52,200 --> 01:14:52,679
Speaker 2: I'm ready.

1705
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:55,040
Speaker 3: And it turns out he has not a fully torn

1706
01:14:55,080 --> 01:14:58,519
Speaker 3: but a partially torn bicap injury, and he's saying, yeah,

1707
01:14:58,560 --> 01:15:00,599
Speaker 3: it's not Is it realistic for me to fight in March?

1708
01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:03,040
Speaker 3: I don't think it really is. This only got to

1709
01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:06,960
Speaker 3: be made news because they just repeated what Shudo said

1710
01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:10,680
Speaker 3: without it being ever vetted against any other source, Like,

1711
01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:13,599
Speaker 3: are they trying to release this information to pressure al

1712
01:15:13,640 --> 01:15:15,840
Speaker 3: jo It's not. The guy was explicit, I'm not going

1713
01:15:15,920 --> 01:15:19,000
Speaker 3: to be ready till the summer. What the fuck is

1714
01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:20,840
Speaker 3: this about? I don't even get it.

1715
01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:23,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think they were trying to pressure him into

1716
01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:25,280
Speaker 1: to hold in that day and this was you know,

1717
01:15:25,320 --> 01:15:26,720
Speaker 1: I mean, so who don't knows how to work the

1718
01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:31,080
Speaker 1: public's perception through social media? Much ado about nothing in

1719
01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,920
Speaker 1: that regard, except for the very real reality that al

1720
01:15:34,000 --> 01:15:37,400
Speaker 1: Joe came back and admitted that no, I am actually hurt.

1721
01:15:37,520 --> 01:15:41,639
Speaker 1: And so here's the deal, Like, just like we saw TJ.

1722
01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:44,559
Speaker 1: Dillashaw against him, It's like that fight is now, you know,

1723
01:15:45,120 --> 01:15:48,280
Speaker 1: largely meaningless in the in the in hindsight and affected,

1724
01:15:48,560 --> 01:15:50,760
Speaker 1: you know, fighter of the year voting for whatever that's worth,

1725
01:15:50,800 --> 01:15:52,559
Speaker 1: and it's affected a lot of ways. We actually look

1726
01:15:52,600 --> 01:15:54,479
Speaker 1: at al Joe that wise, and al to just wait

1727
01:15:54,520 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 1: till he is fully healthy. Luckily, he's the top of

1728
01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:00,799
Speaker 1: the deepest division in the game. Luckily, in my opinion,

1729
01:16:01,000 --> 01:16:05,320
Speaker 1: a Henry Shodo versus Sean O'Malley interim championship fight it's

1730
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:08,559
Speaker 1: probably bigger than to Hoodo versus Al Joe in some ways,

1731
01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:12,559
Speaker 1: so perfect scenario solved. Do that in the spring, have

1732
01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:14,440
Speaker 1: Algiel fight the winner for the full championship.

1733
01:16:15,600 --> 01:16:18,120
Speaker 2: Sounds fine by me. Kind of silly, this is even news.

1734
01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:21,640
Speaker 3: And then, last, but not least, Bellatore announced yesterday that

1735
01:16:21,680 --> 01:16:25,120
Speaker 3: they have re signed aj McKee to an exclusive, multi fight,

1736
01:16:25,800 --> 01:16:29,519
Speaker 3: multi year contract BC. I gotta say that's great news

1737
01:16:29,560 --> 01:16:33,080
Speaker 3: for bellatour homegrown star twenty seven years old. They're probably

1738
01:16:33,080 --> 01:16:35,760
Speaker 3: gonna have him for at least I'm not sure how

1739
01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:37,439
Speaker 3: long the contract is for, but I'm gonna guess at

1740
01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:40,360
Speaker 3: least for a couple more years bare minimum, maybe three,

1741
01:16:41,000 --> 01:16:42,960
Speaker 3: which means they're gonna have him till basically the point

1742
01:16:42,960 --> 01:16:45,000
Speaker 3: where he's thirty. They're gonna have him through his team

1743
01:16:45,160 --> 01:16:47,920
Speaker 3: basically from pro debut all the way to age thirty.

1744
01:16:48,080 --> 01:16:50,400
Speaker 3: You know, it's hard to keep someone forever under a banner,

1745
01:16:50,400 --> 01:16:52,240
Speaker 3: but they've kept Patricia Pippel for a long time and

1746
01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:55,479
Speaker 3: now aj McKee one of their brightest stars, homegrown proof

1747
01:16:55,479 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 3: of concept guy. This was a big one that they needed.

1748
01:16:58,040 --> 01:17:00,080
Speaker 3: Wouldn't have been the end of the world necessarily if

1749
01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:02,120
Speaker 3: he had gone somewhere else. But here's the kind of

1750
01:17:02,120 --> 01:17:03,640
Speaker 3: interesting part to think about it. It's not just that

1751
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:05,960
Speaker 3: they resigned him when you really examine, like what are

1752
01:17:05,960 --> 01:17:08,479
Speaker 3: the possible fights that are out there for him? They

1753
01:17:08,520 --> 01:17:11,080
Speaker 3: do have some decent options that I think even when

1754
01:17:11,080 --> 01:17:13,440
Speaker 3: he beat Producer Piple the first time, we didn't necessarily

1755
01:17:13,479 --> 01:17:15,920
Speaker 3: see they've got it now. I like where they're at.

1756
01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:18,479
Speaker 1: Yeah. The announcement also confirmed that he will be a

1757
01:17:18,479 --> 01:17:21,120
Speaker 1: part of the Lightweight World Grand Prix next year, So

1758
01:17:21,160 --> 01:17:23,800
Speaker 1: you're talking about obvious potential for him against the new

1759
01:17:23,880 --> 01:17:25,920
Speaker 1: champion new Smanner Maga Metal, which is you know, on

1760
01:17:25,960 --> 01:17:28,080
Speaker 1: my short list of favorite fights I want to see.

1761
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:30,720
Speaker 1: There's always at any time, you know him and him

1762
01:17:30,760 --> 01:17:34,320
Speaker 1: and Patricio could settle their trilogy, whether it's at featherweight,

1763
01:17:34,320 --> 01:17:37,080
Speaker 1: whether it's like whether it's anywhere to be fair, So yeah,

1764
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:39,320
Speaker 1: they I feel like they had to get this done, Luke,

1765
01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:43,000
Speaker 1: because there are levels to the idea of homegrown guys

1766
01:17:43,040 --> 01:17:45,479
Speaker 1: and Beltor's you know, been great from Chandler to the

1767
01:17:45,479 --> 01:17:47,880
Speaker 1: Pitpolls and all that regard. But this is like day

1768
01:17:48,040 --> 01:17:51,519
Speaker 1: one ish homegrown, like Aaron Pico was, you know, almost

1769
01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:54,639
Speaker 1: to that level in terms of like you know, ajs

1770
01:17:54,800 --> 01:17:58,599
Speaker 1: has fought every single time as a professional under this banner.

1771
01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:02,240
Speaker 1: He's made he huge vocal promises from the beginning of

1772
01:18:02,280 --> 01:18:05,080
Speaker 1: what he's eventually going to do as a multi division champion.

1773
01:18:05,400 --> 01:18:07,639
Speaker 1: Let's see him carry that out. And I think opening

1774
01:18:07,680 --> 01:18:10,720
Speaker 1: up the CBS door again, which is gonna be February fourth,

1775
01:18:10,760 --> 01:18:13,400
Speaker 1: of course, when it's Ryan Bader and Fador in a rematch.

1776
01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:17,120
Speaker 1: You know, has anyone else under this larger banner? Luke

1777
01:18:17,280 --> 01:18:19,160
Speaker 1: at paramount here, I want to see what this does

1778
01:18:19,320 --> 01:18:22,439
Speaker 1: in today's you know, landscape in terms of streaming and

1779
01:18:22,520 --> 01:18:24,519
Speaker 1: numbers and all that. Can this be a big bang

1780
01:18:24,760 --> 01:18:27,559
Speaker 1: because aj McKee's the type of guy that you that

1781
01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:30,320
Speaker 1: you would want, in my opinion, to push towards those

1782
01:18:30,360 --> 01:18:32,880
Speaker 1: masses ahead of some of these big fights here. So

1783
01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:36,479
Speaker 1: I know that. Simultaneously, Luke, we're hearing multiple reports of

1784
01:18:36,520 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 1: Belator being for sale. We don't have you know, any

1785
01:18:39,360 --> 01:18:42,400
Speaker 1: inside info on that, but interesting season here. But they

1786
01:18:42,439 --> 01:18:45,280
Speaker 1: need this guy. They built him, you know, his dad

1787
01:18:45,360 --> 01:18:47,639
Speaker 1: is part of the larger team, you know, in terms

1788
01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:50,599
Speaker 1: of the history here too. So good move, really good

1789
01:18:50,600 --> 01:18:53,920
Speaker 1: move to see because dude, he may come out of

1790
01:18:53,960 --> 01:18:56,479
Speaker 1: that with the championship of this Grand Prix tournament and

1791
01:18:56,520 --> 01:18:58,240
Speaker 1: just the idea that we're building toward him against the

1792
01:18:58,280 --> 01:19:00,439
Speaker 1: champion at some point is monster to me.

1793
01:19:00,920 --> 01:19:01,720
Speaker 2: No doubt about it.

1794
01:19:02,000 --> 01:19:05,760
Speaker 3: All right, folks, Holy Hammer people, we see you, we

1795
01:19:05,840 --> 01:19:07,960
Speaker 3: hear you. This month, we are working with our favorite

1798
01:19:13,760 --> 01:19:16,000
Speaker 3: community as much as we do, so we've decided to

1799
01:19:16,040 --> 01:19:18,200

1954
01:26:11,800 --> 01:26:15,160
Speaker 1: Greetings from Cankun. My wife Sarah and I stayed at

1955
01:26:15,200 --> 01:26:20,559
Speaker 1: an adult only, all inclusive, topless resort one eleven am

1956
01:26:20,640 --> 01:26:24,679
Speaker 1: struck and my natural instincts kicked in and started watching

1957
01:26:24,680 --> 01:26:26,679
Speaker 1: Wednesday's episode at the damn pool.

1958
01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:28,519
Speaker 2: Look at the vape in his hand. My man's just

1959
01:26:28,520 --> 01:26:29,840
Speaker 2: getting high balls out there.

1960
01:26:31,240 --> 01:26:34,439
Speaker 1: Rented a Janks golf car on an island, and the

1961
01:26:34,560 --> 01:26:37,720
Speaker 1: last night the margaritas finally got to me. I had

1962
01:26:37,720 --> 01:26:40,679
Speaker 1: to wear shades to breakfast. The next morning, it's MK

1963
01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:44,679
Speaker 1: Global Domination. Yo, Saul's taking us on the road, Luke

1964
01:26:44,720 --> 01:26:45,400
Speaker 1: to Can Kuhn.

1965
01:26:45,600 --> 01:26:48,519
Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, but what like I've been doing, I'm gonna

1966
01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:51,080
Speaker 3: do like Kevin Garnett in the famous Nike ad what's

1967
01:26:51,160 --> 01:26:51,679
Speaker 3: up with the shirt?

1968
01:26:51,680 --> 01:26:52,960
Speaker 2: Like? Where's all the topless women at?

Speaker 1: Yeah? I know, if you're promising us a week spent

1970
01:26:56,600 --> 01:26:59,320
Speaker 1: at the topless beach, aren't you required to show that? Luke?

1971
01:27:00,120 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 2: I think that's the law. I think he's breaking the

1972
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:02,920
Speaker 2: law by not doing that.

1973
01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:06,920
Speaker 1: I've watched enough Shannon Tweed films on Cinemax to know,

1974
01:27:07,000 --> 01:27:09,320
Speaker 1: Luke that he's in fact breaking the law. Okay, thank

01:30:08,360 --> 01:30:12,280
Speaker 3: and funny is always a hit, always a hit.

2050
01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:14,759
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I'm with you on that. That's what comedy

2051
01:30:14,840 --> 01:30:16,840
Speaker 1: is based on, Luke. Just making fun of people.

2052
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:19,400
Speaker 2: You care about, right, I guess so, I guess.

2053
01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:22,360
Speaker 1: People people make Reddit pages about that shit. Maybe that's extreme,

2054
01:30:22,400 --> 01:30:24,200
Speaker 1: though maybe.

2055
01:30:24,200 --> 01:30:26,520
Speaker 2: Not always love.

01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:48,200
Speaker 3: I feel like you you here's the funny part about

2064
01:30:48,200 --> 01:30:50,280
Speaker 3: it too, because that was more your baby than mine,

2065
01:30:50,520 --> 01:30:53,400
Speaker 3: like the dunk of the ear thing, and you're usually

2066
01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:56,160
Speaker 3: really in touch with what the online fans want. Well,

2067
01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:58,280
Speaker 3: you whiffed on that one. I mean, I admit I whift,

Speaker 1: I and I did. I did take a closer look

2072
01:31:07,320 --> 01:31:08,800
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, that guy did that too,

2073
01:31:08,960 --> 01:31:12,559
Speaker 1: and that and that. But Danger Mouse is always there, Luke.

2074
01:31:12,640 --> 01:31:15,320
Speaker 1: He's like cal Ripken always shows up, you know what

2075
01:31:15,360 --> 01:31:17,400
Speaker 1: I mean. And then maybe he had a relationship with

2076
01:31:17,439 --> 01:31:19,080
Speaker 1: Britty Anderson. I don't know, you know what I mean, Like,

2077
01:31:19,160 --> 01:31:22,120
Speaker 1: but that's what that's what Danger Mouse does. So he says, hi, BC,

2078
01:31:22,240 --> 01:31:24,080
Speaker 1: I'm back in a better mood this week. After the

2079

01:31:57,760 --> 01:32:01,800
Speaker 1: pretty self explanatory. All right, look where we got here.

2103
01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:41,960
Speaker 2: Mouse and the d O T Y competition. You were

2104
01:32:42,000 --> 01:32:44,280
Speaker 2: big fans? Then how did that start? I can't even

2105
01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:46,760
Speaker 2: read this. This goes on forever. This is the worst joke.

2106
01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:51,640
Speaker 1: Wow, wow, Luke only can take so much and then

2107
01:32:51,680 --> 01:32:53,800

Speaker 1: supposed to watch too, I think right.

2110
01:32:58,920 --> 01:33:04,080
Speaker 2: Whenever BC does a interview with an attractive female, can.

2111
01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:05,519
Speaker 1: You go back to the one before again? I want

2112
01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:05,840
Speaker 1: to read that.

2113
01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:10,280
Speaker 2: Oh a live interview, mister Campbell, do you recognize this art?

2114
01:33:10,400 --> 01:33:12,280
Speaker 2: Is this not, in fact the design that gave MK

2115
01:33:12,400 --> 01:33:18,000
Speaker 2: it's most successful merchandise, Duke of Dunkton, Mister Campbell, did

2116
01:33:18,040 --> 01:33:20,000
Speaker 2: you not use this fine, complimentary piece of art to

2117
01:33:20,000 --> 01:33:23,280
Speaker 2: advertise your very first personal live chat show? Oh shit,

2118
01:33:26,280 --> 01:33:28,479
Speaker 2: then they're making fun of our advertisers. Tru or false.

2119
01:33:28,560 --> 01:33:31,720
Speaker 3: Danger Mouse has consistently and fearlessly provided humorous submissions for

2120
01:33:31,880 --> 01:33:37,920
Speaker 3: over six months. Oh that's a fair point. Yeah, Luke

2121
01:33:38,200 --> 01:33:40,360
Speaker 3: reacts to the news of his two podcasting awards. Oh

2122
01:33:40,400 --> 01:33:41,160
Speaker 3: this thought'd be funny.

2123
01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:46,720
Speaker 2: It is a flat line, all right?

2124
01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:50,559
Speaker 1: Did this is well done by day trum Mouse? And yes,

2125
01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:53,280
Speaker 1: I dropped the ball you had any I didn't realize.

2126
01:33:53,320 --> 01:33:55,519
Speaker 1: So he was the one. Do you remember our live

2127
01:33:55,600 --> 01:33:58,720
Speaker 1: show that we got drunk at in Jersey City the

2128
01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:02,400
Speaker 1: first year and we got a miss card that we read. Yes, dude,

2129
01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:05,160

01:34:06,160 --> 01:34:06,960
Speaker 2: There's one more with audio.

2132
01:34:07,000 --> 01:34:11,679
Speaker 1: All right, let's listen to it. I got it wrong,

2133
01:34:12,200 --> 01:34:23,280
Speaker 1: all right, Danger Mouse for life? All right?

2134
01:34:24,160 --> 01:34:26,599
Speaker 2: I mean I gotta say that was piece together very poorly.

2135
01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:27,680
Speaker 2: A little bit of a.

2136
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:32,519

2137
01:34:32,600 --> 01:34:34,960
Speaker 1: that you made a terrible mistake in not nominating me.

2138
01:34:35,439 --> 01:34:37,559
Speaker 1: The rest of your decision was fine, though. I'm happy

2139
01:34:37,640 --> 01:34:40,880
Speaker 1: with JP and Appy sharing second place. It seems fair.

2140

Speaker 1: Nidis Animal. You know his son was a linebacker in

2155
01:35:24,240 --> 01:35:25,360
Speaker 1: the NFL. You remember that, right?

2156
01:35:25,640 --> 01:35:28,519
Speaker 2: These guys look like they play in the band gar

2157
01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:30,320
Speaker 2: That's also true.

2158
01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:33,360
Speaker 1: One more photo from Alan w. I felt a similar

2159
01:35:33,439 --> 01:35:36,960
Speaker 1: heavy blunt force trauma of artsy psychosis a decade ago

2160
01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:41,759
Speaker 1: with the cultural phenomenon that was Gonna Wampum Congam style

2161
01:35:42,120 --> 01:35:46,040
Speaker 1: performed by South Korean artists ps Y P s Y,

Speaker 1: Why Cy sorry about that side? Style is for sure

2163
01:35:52,479 --> 01:35:55,200
Speaker 1: BC's spirit animal. He exuses a type of energy that

2164
01:35:55,320 --> 01:35:59,040
Speaker 1: is both asenine and hypnotic. Here's the debut of Brye

2165
01:35:59,680 --> 01:36:05,639
Speaker 1: br Or Why with Noggy Style. Noggy is a nickname

2166
01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 1: for BAC's hometown of Naugatuck, and while Gongham style is

2167
01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:12,840
Speaker 1: actually a commentary on pretension of the upper class. Naggy

2168
01:36:12,960 --> 01:36:16,760
Speaker 1: Style is a commentary on the pretension of being factorytown tough?

2169
01:36:17,320 --> 01:36:21,120
Speaker 1: Uh luke? Is that Valentina and Joanna there? Yes, I

Speaker 3: subsequent one or pretty soon. The Derek Lewis Sergei Spivak fight,

2183

2191
01:37:17,840 --> 01:37:20,439
Speaker 3: a bunch of Asian fighters on the card, but the

2207
01:37:54,840 --> 01:37:58,000
Speaker 1: like not that the details would change this at all.

2208
01:37:58,040 --> 01:38:00,200
Speaker 1: It's like, but I, you know, I am curious to

2209
01:38:00,280 --> 01:38:02,639
Speaker 1: what happened, but it's just such a sad story altogether, Luke,

2210
01:38:02,680 --> 01:38:03,760
Speaker 1: you know, maybe we don't need to know.

2211
01:38:03,840 --> 01:38:04,320
Speaker 2: It's terrible.

2212
01:38:04,439 --> 01:38:06,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm not sure exactly what to say about it

2213
01:38:06,400 --> 01:38:07,920
Speaker 3: at the present moment because we don't we don't really

2214
01:38:08,000 --> 01:38:09,800
Speaker 3: know a whole lot other than she was very young,

2215
01:38:10,320 --> 01:38:12,599
Speaker 3: and it seems like it came out of nowhere, as

2216
01:38:12,680 --> 01:38:13,560
Speaker 3: most young deaths do.

2217
01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:17,719
Speaker 2: But awful, awful.

2218
01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:20,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can be, you can be riding high. Dude,

2219
01:38:20,160 --> 01:38:24,000
Speaker 3: life is. I really don't care how rich you are,

2220
01:38:24,160 --> 01:38:26,160
Speaker 3: or how successful you are, in some cases even how

2221
01:38:26,200 --> 01:38:29,360
Speaker 3: poor you are. I guess, dude, life is. It's so

2222
01:38:29,680 --> 01:38:32,520
Speaker 3: hard to do well in life, like consistently.

2223
01:38:32,680 --> 01:38:35,439
Speaker 2: It's so hard. It's not easy. It's not easy, and

2224
01:38:35,960 --> 01:38:38,640
Speaker 2: by virtue of both your own actions and then the

2225
01:38:38,720 --> 01:38:41,280
Speaker 2: things around you that can just completely.

2226
01:38:42,560 --> 01:38:46,200
Speaker 3: Break and fall apart. It's hard, man, it's really hard.

2227
01:38:47,160 --> 01:38:49,679
Speaker 3: Most people our age kind of understand that, but it's twenty.

2228
01:38:49,880 --> 01:38:52,439
Speaker 3: It's hard to appreciate it. Life will fuck you up.

2229
01:38:53,920 --> 01:38:57,280
Speaker 2: It's tough. There you go, all right, well on that,

2265
01:40:18,800 --> 01:40:20,680
Speaker 1: and do it all over again, would you not go

2266
01:40:20,880 --> 01:40:24,360
Speaker 1: the mathlete debate team, leave my senior year to take

2267
01:40:24,400 --> 01:40:29,000

2268
01:40:29,080 --> 01:40:31,320
Speaker 1: a backup offensive lineman on the football team, I'll be

2269
01:40:31,479 --> 01:40:32,439
Speaker 1: on the swim team.

2270
01:40:32,479 --> 01:40:32,759
Speaker 2: Whatever.

2271
01:40:32,960 --> 01:40:35,000
Speaker 1: Just just go after that side of it, Luke, If

2272
01:40:35,040 --> 01:40:37,600
Speaker 1: you could do it all over again, would would you

2273
01:40:37,720 --> 01:40:41,040
Speaker 1: be dumber and more aggressive and end up on the

2274
01:40:41,120 --> 01:40:42,960
Speaker 1: steps a year ago or a few years ago?

2275
01:40:43,360 --> 01:40:46,799
Speaker 3: The truth is like the very rough accepting of all challenge,

2276
01:40:46,960 --> 01:40:49,439
Speaker 3: nothing gets in my way kind of meat headed worldview.

2277
01:40:49,479 --> 01:40:51,000
Speaker 3: There is actually a little bit of value to it

2278
01:40:51,080 --> 01:40:54,080
Speaker 3: that I think people who don't ever experience that don't

2279
01:40:54,120 --> 01:40:57,120
Speaker 3: fully appreciate it can both propel you to great heights

2280
01:40:57,120 --> 01:41:01,080
Speaker 3: and also provide great entertainment and joy. But in general,

2281
01:41:01,240 --> 01:41:04,040
Speaker 3: as a lifestyle, you know, the unexamined life is not

2282
01:41:04,160 --> 01:41:04,719
Speaker 3: worth living.

2283
01:41:05,040 --> 01:41:08,639
Speaker 2: And uh no, I would lean into it even further

2284
01:41:09,040 --> 01:41:09,439
Speaker 2: what I did.

2285
01:41:09,479 --> 01:41:12,840
Speaker 3: Oh wow, yeah, okay, yeah, I wouldn't end up here.

2286
01:41:12,880 --> 01:41:14,640
Speaker 3: I would have done something else in my life. I

2287
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:16,040
Speaker 3: probably should have gone to law school.

2288
01:41:16,240 --> 01:41:19,080
Speaker 1: I don't think you're living out a disappointment, Luke, I

2289
01:41:19,160 --> 01:41:19,519
Speaker 1: don't think.

2290
01:41:19,560 --> 01:41:21,120
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, no, no, I'm not.

2291
01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:25,880
Speaker 3: But I didn't fully realize who I was until much

2292
01:41:25,960 --> 01:41:29,120
Speaker 3: later in life, and I wish I had a better

2293
01:41:29,200 --> 01:41:29,960
Speaker 3: knowledge of that early.

2294
01:41:30,320 --> 01:41:33,200
Speaker 1: I think it's all part of the discovery in the process.

2295
01:41:33,320 --> 01:41:34,439
Speaker 1: It comes at different times.

2296
01:41:34,520 --> 01:41:36,599
Speaker 2: Luke. You know what about you? Would you have tried

2297
01:41:36,600 --> 01:41:38,400
Speaker 2: a little bit harder to not be a complete waste

2298
01:41:38,439 --> 01:41:38,800
Speaker 2: of space?

2299
01:41:39,280 --> 01:41:40,880
Speaker 1: Yeah? I could have been a straight A student. I

2300
01:41:40,920 --> 01:41:42,400
Speaker 1: should have been, Luke, And I should have gone to

2301
01:41:42,479 --> 01:41:44,680
Speaker 1: a big college and you know, probably cleaned up in

2302
01:41:44,760 --> 01:41:46,840
Speaker 1: my after hours instead, Luke. You know I went the

2303
01:41:46,880 --> 01:41:49,200
Speaker 1: other way, you know, and there we are, all right.

2304
01:41:49,280 --> 01:41:51,559
Speaker 1: But no, you know what I in hindsight, Yeah, dude,

2305
01:41:51,560 --> 01:41:53,640
Speaker 1: I would I'll tell you what I would have. I

2306
01:41:53,680 --> 01:41:56,280
Speaker 1: would have participated more. I would have joined more teams.

2307
01:41:56,320 --> 01:41:58,599
Speaker 1: I would have you know, I would have taken more

2308
01:41:58,720 --> 01:42:00,320
Speaker 1: chances in life. You know what I'm saying.

2309
01:42:00,439 --> 01:42:02,200
Speaker 2: You know what the problem too for me was, man,

2310
01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:05,519
Speaker 2: was that the reason I retreated into books is because, uh, well,

2311
01:42:05,560 --> 01:42:08,840
Speaker 2: partly my brother led by example, But the other one

2312
01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:10,880
Speaker 2: was I moved around so much as a kid. I

2313
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:12,040
Speaker 2: was always the new kid.

2314
01:42:12,479 --> 01:42:14,519
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, it's just hard to constantly be

2315
01:42:14,640 --> 01:42:16,479
Speaker 3: the new kid, so it's just easier to retreat into

2316
01:42:16,520 --> 01:42:21,320
Speaker 3: your books. But I still didn't quite I wasn't quite.

2317
01:42:21,439 --> 01:42:23,439
Speaker 2: Disciplined enough I would have been. I would like to

2318
01:42:23,479 --> 01:42:25,160
Speaker 2: be more disappointed, but who cares.

2319
01:42:25,479 --> 01:42:27,880
Speaker 1: I was a big choose your own adventure fan for books. Look,

2320
01:42:27,920 --> 01:42:30,040
Speaker 1: those were the best, right, I mean it was great, right,

2321
01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:31,599
Speaker 1: you know, it could it could be a different ending

2322
01:42:31,640 --> 01:42:32,760
Speaker 1: this time. It's tough to me.

2323
01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:34,760
Speaker 2: It could be a very different ending, all right. With

2324
01:42:34,840 --> 01:42:36,080
