Energy 20 00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 5: should not be an issue for me. 21 00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:18,679 Speaker 4: It is six thirty one pm Eastern Time, only the 22 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 4: third twilight prime time style episode of the anaicin Florian Podcast. 23 00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 4: So where are you right now? Right now? 24 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 5: I'm in Atlantic City getting ready for the PFL later 25 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 5: this week, and got some nice. 26 00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 4: Sun over here. Yeah, the view of the beach over 27 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 4: here to my left's nice. Cody, did you notice the 28 00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 4: pregnant pause before he revealed location? He's like, wait a second, 29 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,040 Speaker 4: I'm calling a PFL show. Everybody knows I'm going to 30 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 4: be in Atlantic City, so it's okay to reveal that, 31 00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,520 Speaker 4: all right, So let us begin with headlines, and we 32 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 4: will not short change Robert Whitaker, time permitting, we will 33 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 4: certainly get to Jake Paul and Ben Askron and all 34 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 4: of that noise for lack of a better words, certainly 35 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 4: I would imagine Longo has some thoughts on that. And 36 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 4: it is a fight for Chris Wyman, of course. So 37 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 4: Ray coming up here in about ten minutes, and then 38 00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 4: all sorts of good stuff of the main event challenge 39 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 4: Odds Sharks Joe Osbourne with the pick to click. But 40 00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 4: Robert Whittaker, I mean, could you not watch this guy 41 00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:13,959 Speaker 4: fight all day? Like I'm just gonna shut the fuck 42 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,480 Speaker 4: up and let you talk about it. But he beat 43 00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:18,800 Speaker 4: a special fighter in Kelvin Gaslam as far as I 44 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 4: am concerned, you know, I understand that Gasoline became a 45 00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,160 Speaker 4: little bit of a one trick pony in this fight, 46 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 4: but Whittaker is the total package. He certainly looks ready 47 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 4: to challenge for a belt that he once had your 48 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 4: thoughts on largely. What was twenty five minutes of brilliance 49 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 4: from Bob Whittaker there over the weekend, It really was. 50 00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 5: I came away extremely impressed by Robert Whittaker and what 51 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,720 Speaker 5: he was able to do against Kelvin Gastolm, who is 52 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,640 Speaker 5: one of the toughest guys in that division, and Kelvin 53 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 5: can really beat on a lot of different fronts, but 54 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:54,480 Speaker 5: really was not able to get it done anywhere against 55 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 5: Robert Whittaker. Whittaker won the striking aspect, he won the 56 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 5: grappling aspect, you want, the wrestling aspect of that fight, 57 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 5: and was just extremely dominant and proved that he deserves 58 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 5: a rematch against Israel Atisanya and Whittaker showed a much 59 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 5: more mature approach, much more precise approach, and I think 60 00:03:16,639 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 5: that Kelvin would have given I think, you know, ninety 61 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:24,320 Speaker 5: five percent of the guys in that division, an extremely 62 00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,800 Speaker 5: tough go. I mean, he's capable obviously of beating many 63 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 5: people in that division. I ultimately came back to hurt 64 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 5: that he for the fact that he was so aggressive 65 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 5: a loud Robert Whittaker to utilize his style with just 66 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 5: flair and precision and beauty. 67 00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 4: What are performance? Sometimes when I'm watching KG, I think, man, 68 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,320 Speaker 4: he's one big left hand away from the world title 69 00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 4: or the signature win over a number one contender type. 70 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 4: So there's a whole different conversation about Kelvin Gasolon. But 71 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:03,200 Speaker 4: Robert Whittaker, you know, to have rallied back, for lack 72 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 4: of a better verb, from this lost to Ada Sony 73 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 4: with three straight wins of such a high quality to 74 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 4: his words after the fight, there's nothing else left for 75 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 4: him to do but to rematch Israel at a Sonyi. 76 00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 4: Even if he was somewhat of a reluctant number one 77 00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:21,160 Speaker 4: contender prior, at this point, he's stacked two wins on 78 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 4: top of those words. I mean, he's got to be 79 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:26,360 Speaker 4: the guy. And I think Ata Sonya would probably publicly 80 00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:27,520 Speaker 4: acknowledge as much. 81 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 5: He really showed a high fight IQ here in this 82 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 5: fight against Kelvin Gaslom, which he's going to certainly need 83 00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 5: against someone like israelis Sonya. 84 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:37,600 Speaker 4: His approach against. 85 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 5: Israel was very unusual, just you know, we typically don't 86 00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,839 Speaker 5: see a Robert Whittaker who was furiously looking for the 87 00:04:45,880 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 5: finish from the get go. In this fight, we saw, 88 00:04:49,880 --> 00:04:51,679 Speaker 5: you know, not only did we see a more skilled 89 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,359 Speaker 5: Robert Whitaker, but we saw the Robert Whittaker who is 90 00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 5: really more like a computer who likes to sit back, analyze, 91 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:00,760 Speaker 5: compute the information, and then. 92 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 4: Pick you apart. 93 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 5: And he did that extremely well here against Kelvin gastellm 94 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:08,480 Speaker 5: and I expect him to have this kind of approach 95 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,120 Speaker 5: when he gets that second chance against out Aside. 96 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 4: He really is a five tool fighter. And we've talked 97 00:05:14,200 --> 00:05:16,440 Speaker 4: in the past on these airwaves about his love of 98 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 4: grappling and you know, even talking about being in America 99 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 4: for as long as he was for this trip picking 100 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 4: up new tricks that he's going to bring back to 101 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 4: the jiu jitsu room. So just the appetite for martial 102 00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 4: arts is about as healthy as it's ever been, and 103 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 4: you know, doing things on his terms, right had the 104 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,640 Speaker 4: kid I think a fourth child. God bless him. In January, 105 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 4: I believe, and then gets right back at it and 106 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,239 Speaker 4: a big win, change of opponent and everything else. Couldn't 107 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 4: have enough good things to say about Robert Whitaker and 108 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 4: I talked to about like doing it his own way, 109 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 4: and obviously there's been an evolution in him the fighter, 110 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 4: but he's done things his own way and still resonated 111 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 4: with fight fans around the world. And I don't know, 112 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 4: I think he's a very special athlete and Hall of 113 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 4: Fame fighter for me, as he canntinues to stack up 114 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:01,360 Speaker 4: these ones. 115 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, no doubt about it. I mean we called his 116 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 5: first official fight in the UFC back in the day, 117 00:06:07,440 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 5: and I know both you and I came away very 118 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 5: impressed with his maturity back then when he was early 119 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 5: in his twenties, and just the way he was going 120 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:20,120 Speaker 5: about his interviews and his approach. And this guy has 121 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 5: continued to evolve his mixed martial arts game. He really 122 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 5: now is fighting at his peak. I'm really excited to 123 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 5: see what kind of Robert Whitaker we get in his 124 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 5: next fight. 125 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,839 Speaker 4: Yeah. We called that epic UFC debut when he won 126 00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 4: the Tough Smashes No was it Smashes whatever? It was 127 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 4: it was smash. It was on the Gold Coast twenty twelve. 128 00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,520 Speaker 4: Maybe I remember back then his social media handle was 129 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,640 Speaker 4: like Robert Whitaker nineteen ninety, back when we used to 130 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 4: be wowed by the fact that a fighter was born 131 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 4: in the nineties. Speaking of which, we have a fighter 132 00:06:51,640 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 4: making his debut at UFC two sixty one. Wrong Jew 133 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 4: wrong Jew is how I've been trying to like remember 134 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 4: the pronouncieation like incorrect jew row juwe And he was 135 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 4: born in two thousand, So I mean we're talking Kenvo 136 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 4: coming up on twenty five when this kid's born, So bad, 137 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:15,680 Speaker 4: cancel the rest of the show, Cody, all right, So 138 00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 4: love Robert Whittaker. Of course, upstaged in some parts in 139 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 4: the headlines by Jake Paul and Ben Askrin. But another 140 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 4: signature win in a career full of them for Robert Whittaker. 141 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,160 Speaker 4: So you got thirty seconds from me on at Asanya 142 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 4: Whittaker too, and how you might handicap and rematch before 143 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:35,560 Speaker 4: I get your thoughts on where Gasolom goes from here. 144 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 4: I mean, obviously the first fight was not competitive. You 145 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 4: talked a little bit about the strategy, but again, this 146 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,880 Speaker 4: type of winning streak I think will give Betters a 147 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 4: lot of incentive to back Whitaker in a rematch without 148 00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 4: Asna your thoughts. 149 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 5: Well, listen immediately. I think that it would be a 150 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,960 Speaker 5: very different fight. I don't know if he can get 151 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 5: it done against someone like got To Signia because physically 152 00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,240 Speaker 5: he has a lot of different traits his reach, you know, 153 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 5: his length, and of course all of the different weapons 154 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,040 Speaker 5: that out of Sony can use. I think it would 155 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 5: be a difficult matchup for Whittaker, but I definitely think 156 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 5: it would be a much closer matchup the second time around, 157 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 5: especially for seeing this kind of Robert Whittaker, with the footwork, 158 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,840 Speaker 5: with the precision, with the way that he is analyzing 159 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:23,040 Speaker 5: his opponents, I give him a much much better shot 160 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 5: the second time around. 161 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 4: All right, So as far as Kelvin Gaslam is concerned, 162 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 4: if I was a pro fighter, Kenny right, He's like, 163 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 4: where is this going now? This fucking idiot that I 164 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 4: aligned with for this goddamn podcast. If I was a 165 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 4: pro fighter, I'd probably competed featherweight long term, because I 166 00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 4: wouldn't have the discipline to compete at bantamweight, which is 167 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 4: where I belong, you know, I think I would be 168 00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,960 Speaker 4: at my most lethal five to nine, pretty long at 169 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 4: one hundred and thirty five pounds, and that brings me 170 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,200 Speaker 4: to Kelvin gastolon and I talk about these left hands 171 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 4: just being just an inch away from the target. It 172 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 4: seems like all the time in these big moments. And 173 00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 4: maybe that's just the fan in me, but hashtag got 174 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 4: a mission for gold that dates to twenty thirteen when 175 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,800 Speaker 4: we called his UFC debut. You know, this is a 176 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,920 Speaker 4: championship setback for him, and I'm just wondering aloud if 177 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 4: this championship is going to be materialized and realized for 178 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,280 Speaker 4: Kelvin Gastolum. You know, I think he's fighting up a 179 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 4: weight class in a lot of respects. I really do. 180 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 4: Every time I watch him, I feel like he's fighting 181 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,320 Speaker 4: in the wrong weight class one hundred percent. 182 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:20,920 Speaker 5: And you know, we have certainly talked about this many 183 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 5: times over the last you know, several years. And again, 184 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:27,160 Speaker 5: this is not a knock on Kelvin Gastelom. He's still 185 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 5: one of the best middleweights in the world. But I 186 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 5: do think that he is undersized, especially when you look 187 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,560 Speaker 5: at him against you know, guys like the champion. But 188 00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 5: you know, Whitaker was one hundred and seventy pounder before, 189 00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 5: and he looked way bigger than Kelvin Gastolum. So yeah, 190 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 5: I do think that Kelvin, perhaps with some more discipline, 191 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 5: could get down to one hundred and seventy pounds. He 192 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 5: certainly packs a lot of muscle on his frame. But 193 00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 5: I don't know, you know, I think that, you know, 194 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 5: Kelvin wants to compete as as healthy as possible, and 195 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:03,679 Speaker 5: maybe one hundred and eighty five pounds is where he stays. 196 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 5: But I think at this point he's got to be 197 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 5: thinking about potentially going back down to welterway. 198 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 4: It's a tricky thing because I know how much he 199 00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:16,079 Speaker 4: wants to be a UFC champion. But again, just look 200 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,679 Speaker 4: at his teammate Marvin Vettori, who's an animal, you know. 201 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 4: And again, Gasolum is top five at one hundred and 202 00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 4: eighty five pounds. He's a top five middleweight. And I 203 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,320 Speaker 4: like guys, generally speaking, competing when they are healthy. But 204 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 4: I just think it's hard to sort of navigate the size, 205 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,600 Speaker 4: and it's not like Whitaker is an oversized middleweight necessarily, 206 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 4: But I don't know. I like Gaslam and It's going 207 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 4: to be a tough one for him, but we'll see. 208 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,319 Speaker 4: Obviously he's coming off a win not all that long ago. 209 00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:40,000 Speaker 4: But again, I think it's a loss at four or 210 00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:42,959 Speaker 4: five if I'm not mistaken for Kelvin Gaslam. All right, 211 00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 4: Coleman event was going to be Jeremy Stevens moving back 212 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 4: up to one hundred and fifty five pounds against Dracar Close. 213 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 4: But I guess there was some heat on this fight 214 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 4: during fight week. If you missed it, you can google 215 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 4: the video. Jeremy Stevens with a forceful push into the 216 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 4: chest of Dakar Close, who was wearing slides and suffered 217 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 4: some injury in the fight is off. You're kind of 218 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,839 Speaker 4: smirking at me a little bit. I mean that shove 219 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 4: would have put me out for three months. So what 220 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 4: do you have before I give you my opinion on this? 221 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 4: What do you have for me on the co main 222 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 4: event getting scratched on fight day because Jeremy Stevens was 223 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:15,559 Speaker 4: in a shoving mood the day prior. 224 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, man, listen, I was pretty disappointed. You know, I 225 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 5: enjoy watching Jeremy Stevens fight. He's an exciting guy to watch. 226 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 5: It was going to be, you know, his return to lightweight, 227 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 5: and I don't know, man, I guess he was just 228 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:34,360 Speaker 5: so fired up. He pushed his opponent and apparently you 229 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 5: don't want to get pushed by Jeremy Stevens. 230 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 4: Imagine getting hit by Jeremy Stevens. Let plushed by him. 231 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 4: He's got some power. 232 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 5: And I think, you know, for Jakar Close, I think 233 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 5: he was up and kind of super relaxed and kind 234 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 5: of not really tensing his body and maybe just kind 235 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,640 Speaker 5: of swung back almost like he was in a kind 236 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 5: of car accident. 237 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: Maybe hurt his neck and head. But I don't know. 238 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,600 Speaker 5: I'm a little surprised at you know, at the result. 239 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:01,439 Speaker 5: You know, he got an MRI and all that stuff. 240 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,679 Speaker 5: And here's the other thing. It's hard to say, listen, 241 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 5: not maybe I'm defending Jeremy a little bit, but it's 242 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,400 Speaker 5: hard to say that there wasn't an issue heading into 243 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:11,480 Speaker 5: that fight, right, I mean. 244 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:14,599 Speaker 4: He's cutting weight, he's dehydrated. 245 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 5: You know, who knows what happened the week of the 246 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 5: fight or the week's leading up to the fight, if 247 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:19,640 Speaker 5: there was something that was there. 248 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:22,079 Speaker 4: But it's unfortunate all the way around. 249 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,880 Speaker 5: I think Jeremy Stevens is going to learn from this 250 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 5: that it really sucks for everybody involved, mere because I 251 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 5: really did want to see that fight. 252 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:29,800 Speaker 4: As did I and I will go the other way 253 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:32,640 Speaker 4: on it. And I have personal relationships with most of 254 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,440 Speaker 4: these men and women on the roster, So I will 255 00:12:34,440 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 4: preface my comments by saying, and I'll look straight into 256 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,959 Speaker 4: the camera, Jeremy Stevens is the fucking man. Absolutely love 257 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:43,280 Speaker 4: the guy, but you can't push an unsuspecting athlete that 258 00:12:43,520 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 4: forcefully and not expect something to go awry in my 259 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 4: fan opinion, right, Like that's especially about the nineteen climate 260 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 4: ken flow. Everybody's wearing a mask on. It's just you know, again, 261 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 4: I feel like Stevens has no one to blame but himself. Unfortunately. 262 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,520 Speaker 4: You know, yes, it's disappointed, and yes I was surprised, 263 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 4: like everybody else was that the fight went off, But 264 00:13:04,840 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 4: you know, like there's a lot at stake here, and 265 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 4: you know, I don't know, Like, to me, if I'm 266 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 4: betting the fight and the fight goes on, it's like, 267 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:14,200 Speaker 4: give me the guy that got a real super forceful 268 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 4: push in the night before to bussy, you know what 269 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 4: I mean. It's like, well it was again you know, 270 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 4: and I should I should say this. 271 00:13:20,720 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 5: It was a horrible decision by Jeremy, and I think 272 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 5: for a lot of fighters, I hope it's it's a 273 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 5: lesson to them to not do something stupid where you 274 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,960 Speaker 5: could injure your opponent. You guys are gonna fight tomorrow, 275 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 5: You're gonna fight the next day. 276 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, put him and put him back in the holster. 277 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 4: Take it in.

I mean, 330 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:11,640 Speaker 7: those guys never fought before. They got under ten fights. 331 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 7: Some guys have no fights. 332 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 4: He's not survived. 333 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 7: I mean, like we have a boxing club over here, 334 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:20,400 Speaker 7: Westbury Boxing. He's not surviving a week at one hundred 335 00:16:20,440 --> 00:16:23,760 Speaker 7: and ninety pounds with a novice fighter. Like a novice fighter, 336 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 7: I mean, those guys can fucking hit. They've been training 337 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 7: for a couple of years. I just don't know how 338 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 7: anybody I like Ben, I really do. I'm all like him, 339 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,440 Speaker 7: and he's great even he's you know, always humble and defeat, 340 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 7: does a great thing with the kids. No, it's not 341 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 7: a knock on him, But who'd have fuck thought that 342 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 7: guy could win that fight. 343 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 4: I just don't get it. 344 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 7: I mean, I don't care if this guy ever thought 345 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 7: in it before he's in the gym. I mean, now, 346 00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:53,440 Speaker 7: if Ben would have been in the boxing gym for 347 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 7: like two or three years, maybe that's a you know, 348 00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,640 Speaker 7: it's definitely gonna look differently. But that's the way I 349 00:16:58,720 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 7: originally broke it down. So he's he thinks he could 350 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,680 Speaker 7: just walk into the Golden Gloves and when the even 351 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:06,439 Speaker 7: a novice like he's, it's not happening, Like it's not 352 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:08,680 Speaker 7: even coming close to happen. I don't even think he 353 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 7: can make it to the gloves because he's not gonna 354 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 7: survive those gym boars can. 355 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 4: Seriously, is it me? 356 00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 5: No, Listen, he's never looked good as a striker. I mean, 357 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,560 Speaker 5: he's looked horrible as a striker. Here's the thing. It's 358 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 5: like when you don't look good shadow boxing, like when 359 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,640 Speaker 5: you when you when you're shadow boxing, you can't even 360 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 5: look good. 361 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 4: There's a problem over you know, You're like, I don't know. 362 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 5: For me, it's upsetting Ray because you know, in a way, 363 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 5: whether you like it or not, he's representing the mixed 364 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 5: martial arts community. He's he representing the wrestling community to 365 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,479 Speaker 5: a certain extent as well, and it's a totally different sport. 366 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,399 Speaker 5: But at the same time, take some pride in what 367 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 5: you're doing. You're going to compete in a professional fight. 368 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 5: It is a fight at the end of the day, 369 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,959 Speaker 5: and you're going against a YouTuber or whatever, you know, 370 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 5: a big kids, strong kid or whatever it is. But 371 00:17:56,440 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 5: have some pride and put some effort into your performance 372 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 5: and puts some effort in your training. You can't you can't. 373 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 5: You can't go out there and compete like that. I 374 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 5: don't care how much money you're getting paid. You got 375 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:08,840 Speaker 5: to take pride in that. And it's unfortunate because Asking 376 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 5: is an amazing wrestler and he was an amazing mixed 377 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:14,160 Speaker 5: martial arts fighter for a while. Based on what he did, 378 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,160 Speaker 5: you know, it was it was unbelievable. Never the best striker, 379 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,399 Speaker 5: never a good striker, But come on to me, it 380 00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:24,640 Speaker 5: was just disappointing to see that result. And I would 381 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,359 Speaker 5: have hoped to see an asker in that has been 382 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 5: a competitor in some shape or form in combat sports 383 00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 5: his whole life, and to see that kind of performance, 384 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 5: it's just I don't know, it's it's base. 385 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:38,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. 386 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 6: And for the people that think it was stopped early, 387 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 6: you're crazy. 388 00:18:41,720 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 4: It was hard. Seriously take the guy down. What was 389 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 4: he gonna do? 390 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:49,080 Speaker 7: Like if he was a boxer, maybe you give him 391 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 7: a second chance, but what do you do with take 392 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 7: it your coach? 393 00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean he looked awful, but whatever. 394 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 7: And on that same note, that's off to Frank Mia 395 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 7: because he thought a guy who was an extra champion, 396 00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 7: no doubt, at least you know, a little head movement 397 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 7: he was in there. Obviously the saw he's helped him, 398 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 7: but you know, he accepted the responsibility of getting hit. 399 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 4: He came back a bunch of times. I thought he 400 00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 4: made that was good. That was a that was a 401 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 4: cruiserweight world champion, I mean that. 402 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 6: World champion moster, Yeah not you. 403 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,919 Speaker 4: Now that's off the Frank. I thought he did a 404 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 4: great job. Absolutely. Now I will say I do hear 405 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,760 Speaker 4: from people on the Jake Paul Side, who say that 406 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 4: he has just works exceedingly hard and trains well. So 407 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,639 Speaker 4: I will say that Ken FLSs just looking at me like, 408 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 4: what are you doing? 409 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:35,520 Speaker 2: Bro? 410 00:19:36,960 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 4: You know anyway, well, hang on, hang on, here's the 411 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,159 Speaker 4: thing I mean, Hey, my comments are well documented all 412 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:44,760 Speaker 4: over social media. I think, ray, we need to take 413 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,960 Speaker 4: Ken Flow's comments about Ben Askron as a striker a 414 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:51,200 Speaker 4: little bit further, okay, because I do have a problem 415 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 4: with this, right We're trotting out historically a guy who 416 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 4: is ubiquitously regarded as one of the worst strikers in 417 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:58,760 Speaker 4: MMA history, right, one of. 418 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,960 Speaker 8: The worst pure strike your striking types to be in 419 00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 8: the well rightly, And I say that, and those aren't 420 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 8: my words. I say that with all respect, right, So 421 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:11,159 Speaker 8: I am just saying my thesis statement is that I 422 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 8: just think it's important for people to know that the 423 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 8: fighter that they saw in there against Jake Paul is 424 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,800 Speaker 8: not even close to a representation of a below average 425 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:25,159 Speaker 8: MMA striker. So I'm saying there are hundreds of guys 426 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 8: on this roster, men and women, but men outside the 427 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 8: top forty in their division, you know, who would be 428 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:35,640 Speaker 8: five to one favorites against this guy. 429 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:39,639 Speaker 4: So to me, I just don't understand why it's a joke. Right, 430 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 4: You're sending in a guy who just had hip replacement surgery, 431 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 4: who's a retired fighter, who is literally, I mean, give 432 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 4: me eighteen months. I'm more of a striker than they 433 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 4: ask striker at all. 434 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 7: It's kind of apples and oranges and let let's let's 435 00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,920 Speaker 7: admit one thing. Those guys meet on the street, Jake 436 00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,320 Speaker 7: Pole gets the shit beat out of them. He gets taken, 437 00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 7: but there's nothing he can do about it, and he 438 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 7: gets mulled on the bottom. 439 00:21:02,680 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 4: You know what I mean. So, but this was a 440 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 4: boxing matching match. 441 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:08,199 Speaker 7: I mean, I was like, how do they think this 442 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 7: guy's gonna win? He he never had punching power ever. 443 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 7: I just I was confused. 444 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 4: I was like, I don't even know why this is happening, 445 00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 4: but crazy crazy. 446 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 7: I almost felt like that whole event is a microcosm 447 00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 7: of what all country looks like today. I swear to gods, 448 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 7: like a joke, really not seriously, like, what in the 449 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:30,760 Speaker 7: hell wire we looking at it? 450 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,440 Speaker 6: I really have no idea yet. 451 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 5: I had someone from it the internet just threw up 452 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 5: on a stream that it was just like this streaming. 453 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 4: Event just threw up. I had someone from Team Florian 454 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 4: call me today and he would not stop talking about 455 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 4: a prime Kenny Florian just jabbing this kid to death 456 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 4: and then just popping his head off, you know, because 457 00:21:51,840 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 4: I can from a move up to one ninety and 458 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 4: smoke that cat. And boxing was his second best discipline. 459 00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 4: So listen, listen here, here's here's the thing, Askrin. 460 00:22:02,480 --> 00:22:04,719 Speaker 5: You know, I think that no matter what it is, 461 00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 5: you have to take a certain amount of pride in yourself. 462 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:11,359 Speaker 4: And I think that he put himself in a horrible spot. Man. 463 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 5: You know, you're a professional fighter, you're former professional fighter. 464 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:18,600 Speaker 5: He was considered one of the best walt weights in 465 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 5: the world at one point in mixed martial arts. 466 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 4: And he's gone. 467 00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 5: You know, you look at his last three four performances. 468 00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 5: You know, talk about going from the top all the 469 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:33,160 Speaker 5: way to the bottom and now kind of turning yourself into, 470 00:22:33,440 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 5: you know, going from one of the best wealth weights 471 00:22:35,520 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 5: in the world to now being a joke.

But I agree with you, Ray, 499 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 4: like I think a lot of us are are put 500 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 4: off by this to whatever degree, defending MMA to whatever 501 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:55,160 Speaker 4: degree I'm talking literally though, to your point, Ray, there 502 00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 4: are plenty of if Jake, if Jake Paul really wants 503 00:23:57,640 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 4: a challenge in the boxing realm, plenty of boxers that 504 00:24:01,960 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 4: would fit the mole, that would be favored to beat him. 505 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 4: The question is who can move the needle right, Like, 506 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,160 Speaker 4: who can move the needle enough to get the fight? Kenny, 507 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 4: like Tyron Woodley has injected himself into this whole situation, 508 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,640 Speaker 4: and I think he's a five six to one favorite, 509 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 4: if not bigger against Jake Paul. And Jake Paul is 510 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,119 Speaker 4: not going to take that fight, so probably, right, I 511 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 4: don't know. 512 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:24,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean then you hear everyone else is coming 513 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 5: out of the woodwork.

You're like, no, I don't know, it's 516 00:24:32,240 --> 00:24:34,720 Speaker 4: all right, BJ Penn, God love him, right, but it's 517 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 4: like we're gonna throw a weird n in there right now, 518 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 4: you know. Yeah, he would be an Humberdult. Yeah, it's 519 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:40,840 Speaker 4: not going to stop for a while. 520 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 7: Either it's actually not going to stop because I guess 521 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:46,760 Speaker 7: everybody loves to see a train wreck. 522 00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,080 Speaker 6: I don't know, but it's not. I don't see it stopping. 523 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:54,520 Speaker 7: They'll get a couple of more uh you know, shows 524 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 7: out of it, and then maybe. 525 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 4: P he'll die off. 526 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:01,320 Speaker 7: But what a complete what a horror show, even the production, 527 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 7: what a piece of ship.

You know, 547 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:53,120 Speaker 4: and I do know how important head movement is and 548 00:25:53,160 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 4: how like move your like just move ahead a little bit. 549 00:25:55,920 --> 00:25:56,960 Speaker 4: Can we start there? Man? 550 00:25:57,240 --> 00:25:59,720 Speaker 7: Look, look the thing with boxing and why I like 551 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 7: to make my guy's boxes because you get used to 552 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 7: getting hit, and that's a huge thing. You have to 553 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:07,360 Speaker 7: accept the responsibility getting hit and there's no place to run. 554 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 4: You can't take a guy down. 555 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 7: I think it's you got to make everybody box at 556 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 7: the beginning, because you it's going to breed a certain 557 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 7: amount of toughness. I'm not looking to get anybody hurd 558 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 7: or ct. But if you're afraid of getting hit and 559 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,880 Speaker 7: you you don't know how to deal with punches coming in, 560 00:26:23,000 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 7: you're just it's just inevitable that it's not going to 561 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 7: go your way because there's a lot of good attributes 562 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:33,600 Speaker 7: that are built just on boxing. 563 00:26:34,440 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 4: All right, Well, I don't want to delay you getting 564 00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:40,479 Speaker 4: to the the senior jiu jitsu offering it long ago. 565 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 4: Why I'm an MMA that hits here at the top 566 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,639 Speaker 4: of the hour, So we're not gonna I don't know 567 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,720 Speaker 4: if we have time to talk about Robert Whitaker. 568 00:26:47,800 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 7: With a masterful performance, I mean worst absolute against the 569 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,919 Speaker 7: killer man too, you know. Uh, and Gastom look like 570 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:00,399 Speaker 7: he really came out trying to push that action. 571 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,199 Speaker 6: He looked like he was he looked different, you know. 572 00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 7: But you can't hurt what you can't hit, right, And 573 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,040 Speaker 7: like Whittaker's movement and the way he controlled the range 574 00:27:11,040 --> 00:27:14,600 Speaker 7: of that fight was phenomenal. So Gastolum, he wants you 575 00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:16,920 Speaker 7: to go straight back until there's no more real estate 576 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,479 Speaker 7: than he starts unloading on you. This guy would go 577 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,000 Speaker 7: back and then cut an angle and fight on his terms, 578 00:27:22,040 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 7: you know, interrupt them. And just a great, great performance 579 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 7: by Robert Whittaker against a super tough guy that look 580 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,879 Speaker 7: even with a minute left, you were still thinking Gastolum 581 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 7: could get him, you know what I mean, because that's the. 582 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 4: Power Gastolom has. 583 00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 6: And talk about a guy with a cement head, Holy crap. 584 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 4: And that guy, my gosh, man. So it was a 585 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:45,160 Speaker 4: great fight. 586 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 7: I love Kelvin Gastolom, but you know, Whittaker really just 587 00:27:50,520 --> 00:27:54,160 Speaker 7: did a just a masterful job with his movement and 588 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 7: it's just even his jab and he was in and 589 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 7: out and mixing up the cakedowns, just did. 590 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,639 Speaker 4: Just for the you know, a plus. Yeah, like almost 591 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 4: like a mixed martial arts tutorial, like an open workout, 592 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 4: just showing off. And you're right about Gasolon. I mean, 593 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:12,920 Speaker 4: say what you want about him in terms of past criticisms, 594 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,200 Speaker 4: but he was in outstanding shape, you know, and obviously 595 00:28:15,240 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 4: put training camps on top of each other. Stepped up 596 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:20,240 Speaker 4: here for the promotion and deserves credit and you know what, 597 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,760 Speaker 4: for nothing else.

Be safe, man. 732 00:34:37,239 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 4: There he is, Ray long ago bringing it strong on 733 00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:43,279 Speaker 4: Jake Paul, and a lot of people are asking why 734 00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 4: I even entered the fray on the whole Jake Paul, 735 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,760 Speaker 4: Ben askron thing. You know, it's interesting because I remember 736 00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 4: back when Randy Cotur beat James Tony and the result 737 00:34:53,840 --> 00:34:56,280 Speaker 4: was an eventuality. You know, he was going to ground 738 00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,279 Speaker 4: James Tony, who was so out of his world, and 739 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 4: pound him out. And I think Randy was properly priced 740 00:35:02,160 --> 00:35:05,239 Speaker 4: three four, five, six to one favorite, you know. And 741 00:35:05,280 --> 00:35:07,640 Speaker 4: I'm sitting here looking at this Jake Paul Ben Askron 742 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 4: betting line. All, I'm like, what am I missing? What 743 00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 4: am I missing? And I wasn't missing anything, you know, 744 00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:16,439 Speaker 4: I just should have, you know, done the whole Max 745 00:35:16,480 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 4: bet thing instead of a little sprinkle, you know. But 746 00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:22,120 Speaker 4: my god, I mean, I don't know, with all respect 747 00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:24,759 Speaker 4: to Ben Askern, I'm just not sure what people were 748 00:35:24,800 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 4: expecting that he was going to do to win that fight. 749 00:35:26,880 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 4: Was he going to clinch him? Like, what exactly was 750 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 4: he gonna do to win that fight? You know? Yeah, 751 00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:33,080 Speaker 4: I don't know. 752 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 5: I mean I was hoping that he would just be 753 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 5: able to withstand flurries and then kind of bring bring 754 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 5: the fight into deep territory and maybe see Paul you. 755 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:48,600 Speaker 4: Know, tired at the end and he kind of rabbit 756 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 4: punch his way to be. But I don't know, you know, 757 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 4: it's just. 758 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 5: It was hard to watch man, and you know, he 759 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 5: has no business competing in a striking fight against pretty 760 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,720 Speaker 5: much any Well that's so un that's the problem. 761 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 4: But right, that's the issue. Like when Jake Paul fought 762 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 4: excuse me, former NBA player Nate Robinson. You know, I 763 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 4: gave Nate Robinson a much better chance than Ben Askrin, 764 00:36:11,640 --> 00:36:13,960 Speaker 4: you know, because he was training in the discipline enough 765 00:36:13,960 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 4: for nothing, Like, he's an outstanding professional athlete with a 766 00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 4: lot of gifts. And you know, like Kendall Gill, who 767 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,040 Speaker 4: played for the Charlotte Hornets for years, is a boxing 768 00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:28,279 Speaker 4: enthusiast and has been trying to get the fight with 769 00:36:28,360 --> 00:36:30,879 Speaker 4: Jake Paul. That's the name that I would inject into 770 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 4: the conversation right now. You know, forget trying to isolate 771 00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 4: a UFC fighter, you know, because you're not going to 772 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:40,120 Speaker 4: be able to find the right balance of a challenge 773 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 4: and the profile right. Tyron Willy maybe would fit the profile, 774 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,360 Speaker 4: maybe would move the needle enough. I'm not even sure, 775 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:50,280 Speaker 4: but probably too much of a fighter to fight right 776 00:36:50,680 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 4: Tyron's knocking out Jake Paul right still, you have to 777 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:56,919 Speaker 4: find that middle ground. So it's Kendall Gil the guy, 778 00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 4: you know. I mean, I don't know if Kendall Gill 779 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,720 Speaker 4: could cut down to a hunch ninety pounds, but super 780 00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 4: disciplined guy. I just would like to see him fight 781 00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,200 Speaker 4: a boxer or a striker, you know what's going I. 782 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 5: Mean, are we gonna have to get Daniel Cormier in there? 783 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:11,319 Speaker 5: I mean, Jake Paul talking shit to my boy DC. 784 00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 5: What's up? 785 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:14,839 Speaker 4: Well I can get is one of those people who 786 00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 4: might have picked Benjamin Askron to get the job done. 787 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:20,239 Speaker 4: So perhaps that is the source of that ire. But 788 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 4: d C, I think respectfully declined. Maybe not even so respectfully, 789 00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,560 Speaker 4: DC would destroy him. All Right, it is time for 790 00:37:28,719 --> 00:37:32,640 Speaker 4: my favorite part of the show. It's the pronunciation of 791 00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 4: the week. And Kenny, these nice to see you, Cody 792 00:37:36,160 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 4: Merrill rock in the brand new Boston Red Sox Marathon 793 00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 4: style jersey.

Uh all right, Cody, 834 00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 4: Well uh so, I mean, I guess you're two and two. 835 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 4: It was a tough one, but you you're two and two. Man, 836 00:39:58,320 --> 00:39:59,360 Speaker 4: you're back to five hundred. 837 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 9: Hey, I have a better record here than Ben Ascar 838 00:40:02,320 --> 00:40:03,080 Speaker 9: does as a boxer. 839 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:07,359 Speaker 6: So he's one. 840 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:12,240 Speaker 4: He's one, all right, UFC two sixty one Ousman versus 841 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,799 Speaker 4: mosfeedal two. We have five predictions coming up. Let us 842 00:40:14,840 --> 00:40:16,719 Speaker 4: get to the main event challenge. 843 00:40:17,280 --> 00:40:28,160 Speaker 10: It's the main event challenge. Is how we'll do win 844 00:40:28,480 --> 00:40:34,959 Speaker 10: the main event Challenge to John Hannick and Kenny Florian podcast, All. 845 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,879 Speaker 4: Right, Team Florian wins the week needed it five to four. 846 00:40:38,160 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 4: You'll take it doesn't really matter the magic. You're just 847 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:42,960 Speaker 4: trying to chip away as you so often do. Overall 848 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,279 Speaker 4: lead for Team Anecdotes forty eight to thirty eight and 849 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 4: joining us to make picks for UFC sixty one is 850 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,520 Speaker 4: an esteemed podcaster and a pretty sharp handicapper in his 851 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:54,799 Speaker 4: own right as well. From the Punchless MMA podcast on 852 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,319 Speaker 4: social media at Punchless MMA, Dale Lippin as in put 853 00:40:58,360 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 4: your fucking lip in, puts your Copenhagen and in your 854 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,080 Speaker 4: bottom lip. Push your lip in, Dale Lippin, It's great 855 00:41:03,080 --> 00:41:04,640 Speaker 4: to see my friend. How you doing good? 856 00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:06,359 Speaker 1: I'm doing great, man. It's great to see you guys again. 857 00:41:06,360 --> 00:41:08,480 Speaker 1: It's like a reunion of sorts. Saw you a couple 858 00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,600 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, and then Kenny and I go back 859 00:41:10,640 --> 00:41:12,439 Speaker 1: a few years. So yeah, it's great to be back 860 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:14,640 Speaker 1: in the mix with everybody again. Thanks for having me, man, 861 00:41:14,680 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: it's a great So. 862 00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:18,279 Speaker 4: I went on your podcast a few weeks ago and 863 00:41:18,320 --> 00:41:20,520 Speaker 4: I was immediately struck by your voice, so we're happy 864 00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 4: to have those tones on the Anak and Florian podcast. 865 00:41:23,120 --> 00:41:25,400 Speaker 4: Question is how are you going to do against ken Fall? 866 00:41:25,440 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 4: And I'm really curious how you guys handicapped these three 867 00:41:27,640 --> 00:41:31,360 Speaker 4: title fights, especially because two of them have fairly prohibitive favorites. 868 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 4: But we're going to start with the pay per view 869 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 4: opener in the light heavyweight division, Number thirteen, versus number six, 870 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:40,240 Speaker 4: twenty five year old Jimmy Krewe twelve and one overall, 871 00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:42,040 Speaker 4: he's four and one of the UFC Dale two and 872 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 4: oh with a couple of finishes last year. He's the 873 00:41:43,800 --> 00:41:46,640 Speaker 4: modest two hundred favorite here against the plus one fifty 874 00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 4: five hunderdog Anthony Lionheart Smith, who of course has been 875 00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:51,799 Speaker 4: there and done that, making his sixteenth UFC appearance. What 876 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 4: do you think here about the pay per view opener, 877 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 4: Sir Jimmy crut and Anthony Smith. 878 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 1: I think this is a lot tougher out for Jimmy 879 00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:00,120 Speaker 1: Kruth than the oddsmakers are letting it out to being 880 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,120 Speaker 1: about a guy and Anthony Smith that's going to make 881 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:04,719 Speaker 1: the walk professionally as a mixed martial artist for the 882 00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 1: fifty first time on Saturday, And as we say on 883 00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 1: our show, experience is the currency of combat. 884 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 2: This is a big deal. 885 00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 1: You're talking about a guy that has thirteen fights going 886 00:42:16,920 --> 00:42:18,719 Speaker 1: up against a guy that's been there, done that in 887 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:22,399 Speaker 1: several weight classes. At fifty one professional fights, he has 888 00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:24,600 Speaker 1: fought the best of the best. I know people are 889 00:42:24,640 --> 00:42:27,600 Speaker 1: sleeping on Anthony because he's had a couple setbacks recently. 890 00:42:27,600 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 1: But if you look at the caliber of opponent, the 891 00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: strength of schedule, if you will. It's unmatched really as 892 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:35,760 Speaker 1: far as light heavyweight in middleweight is concerned, it's nothing 893 00:42:36,239 --> 00:42:39,680 Speaker 1: but killers. You put these guys against each other ten times, 894 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 1: and I feel like this comes out fifty to fifty. 895 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 1: And that being said, getting that price on Anthony at 896 00:42:45,200 --> 00:42:47,120 Speaker 1: a fifty to fifty odds. The way I'm looking at it, 897 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 1: given everything that we know from skill set to experience, 898 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:51,919 Speaker 1: I think you really can't go wrong with a play 899 00:42:51,960 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 1: on Anthony Smith here. I really believe this fight is 900 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:56,920 Speaker 1: much closer than the oddsmakers have it. 901 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 4: I think you look at it with a smart approach. 902 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:02,439 Speaker 4: I mean, big win over Devin Clark for Anthony Smith, 903 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:05,600 Speaker 4: Kenny by submission, and that closed out what otherwise was 904 00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,080 Speaker 4: a pretty challenging twenty twenty for him. You know, seems 905 00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:11,320 Speaker 4: to be enough distance removed from that crazy house robbery 906 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,280 Speaker 4: where maybe that mentally is not occupying as much space 907 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:16,839 Speaker 4: as it did previously. I can understand why Dale sees 908 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:20,239 Speaker 4: some value there. Jimmy Kruit's an absolute maniac approaching his 909 00:43:20,320 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 4: fighting prime. Your thoughts on the light heavyweight opener here, 910 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:24,680 Speaker 4: Ken Flip, You. 911 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:30,640 Speaker 5: Know, I think Dale kind of broke this down extremely well. However, 912 00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 5: I think I need to go the other way because, 913 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,160 Speaker 5: you know, I do think that Jimmy Crut is a 914 00:43:36,200 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 5: guy who definitely has a lot of very dangerous weapons. 915 00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 4: I think that striking. 916 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,440 Speaker 5: Wise, I think he's going to be the guy who 917 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 5: possesses a little bit more power. I think he's going 918 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:51,480 Speaker 5: to be the faster fighter out there as well. But absolutely, well, 919 00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,400 Speaker 5: what did Dale say, experience is the currency for a 920 00:43:55,400 --> 00:43:57,160 Speaker 5: lot of fighters. I think that's a great line and 921 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 5: it's very true, and I think for Anthony Smith, this 922 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 5: guy has seen pretty much. 923 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:04,160 Speaker 4: Everything in the octagon at this point. 924 00:44:04,880 --> 00:44:08,080 Speaker 5: However, I think that this is one of those fights 925 00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 5: he can't necessarily use his ground. 926 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 4: Advantage against Jimmy Cruit either. 927 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:17,040 Speaker 5: So yeah, for this one, I like Jimmy here. I 928 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 5: couldn't agree more with Dale on the odds. I think 929 00:44:19,719 --> 00:44:23,800 Speaker 5: they're out of whack. I think you should be way closer. However, 930 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,600 Speaker 5: I am gonna go with Jimmy Krue all. 931 00:44:26,600 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 4: Right, ken't flow goes with shock there and Jimmy Krute 932 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,680 Speaker 4: as the minus two hundred favorite. Yeah, he listened to 933 00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 4: Punchless MMA, That's what you're getting experiences the currency of combat. 934 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,000 Speaker 4: See Dale, I listen, I don't appreciate sharing. 935 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 1: Listen, I will, I will gladly. We can co sign 936 00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 1: that away right now if I hear it on broadcast, I'll. 937 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 4: Tell you right now. Hey, yeah, I might have to 938 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,480 Speaker 4: actually find a way to work that in this weekend. 939 00:44:48,520 --> 00:44:51,719 Speaker 4: All right, midaway fight here, ken fl I'm gonna have 940 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,839 Speaker 4: you lead this one off. You're right, Hall minus one 941 00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 4: fifteen Chris Wadman minus one oh five, so Hall slightly 942 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 4: favored in some spots. Whatever, As for our purposes, you're 943 00:45:02,200 --> 00:45:05,480 Speaker 4: getting Widman as the underdog. They met in twenty ten, 944 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 4: both fighters very green at that point in time. Hall 945 00:45:08,840 --> 00:45:11,080 Speaker 4: coming off a big main event win and finish of 946 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 4: Anderson Silver last year on Halloween. Widman is back in 947 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 4: the win column as well. Can flow. Big fight in 948 00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 4: terms of the middleweight division, and if Widman is going 949 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:20,000 Speaker 4: to make one more run, he's got to have it. 950 00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 4: Your thoughts on Widman and Hall here coming up in 951 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:24,120 Speaker 4: five days. 952 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 5: Huge fight for Chris Widman and I think a lot 953 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 5: of the pressure is going to be on Chris here. 954 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 5: I think your eye Hall is fighting Chris at a 955 00:45:32,000 --> 00:45:34,959 Speaker 5: very good time where Chris has been a little inconsistent 956 00:45:35,640 --> 00:45:39,160 Speaker 5: right with his performances. However, I do like the news 957 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 5: that he's feeling much better that perhaps a lot of 958 00:45:43,040 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 5: his injuries that he's been dealing with over the years 959 00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,759 Speaker 5: they're kind of behind him now. I think he's going 960 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:51,160 Speaker 5: to need that to go against a much more motivated, 961 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 5: a much more mature, and a. 962 00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,359 Speaker 4: Much more skilled Uriah Hall. 963 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,960 Speaker 5: I think your Rye Hall is really coming into his 964 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 5: own and I think he's going to be extremely dangerous 965 00:46:02,200 --> 00:46:03,759 Speaker 5: on the feet. I think your Ayah is going to 966 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:05,759 Speaker 5: be the more technical striker, There's no. 967 00:46:05,719 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 4: Doubt about that. 968 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:10,640 Speaker 5: But I do think he has suffered against two things, 969 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 5: pressure and wrestling, and Chris Widman. 970 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 4: Does have that. 971 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 5: I think he has to be very careful of his 972 00:46:15,560 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 5: approach because you Ryah Hall isn't exactly the same guy. 973 00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 5: But Chris can use pressure and wrestling to get the 974 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 5: win here. 975 00:46:24,400 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 4: I think he'll be able to do that. I like 976 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 4: Chris Widman for the win, so Dale. Uriah Hall has 977 00:46:29,880 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 4: had a lot of good influences over the years. Clayton 978 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 4: Hires has been a good corner man for him over 979 00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 4: the years, but this alignment with Fordis MMA has given 980 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 4: your Ayah Hall, the team that he really didn't have, 981 00:46:41,920 --> 00:46:44,720 Speaker 4: the training partners consistently that maybe he didn't have over 982 00:46:44,760 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 4: the years, and the head coach, the general safe sayou 983 00:46:47,160 --> 00:46:50,040 Speaker 4: that seems to be helping him mentally. Put it all together, 984 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 4: What do you think about this matchup in particular for 985 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:54,800 Speaker 4: your Ayah Hall coming up against Webman. 986 00:46:55,520 --> 00:46:57,799 Speaker 1: I think what I mean, you literally set it up 987 00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: perfectly here, you know a lot of times. And I'm 988 00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:02,399 Speaker 1: going to break this down as being respectful to both 989 00:47:02,440 --> 00:47:04,560 Speaker 1: these men as I possibly can, not being a mixed 990 00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 1: martial artist and not putting myself in that position before, 991 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,800 Speaker 1: but both of these guys have a lot of mental 992 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 1: things going on. 993 00:47:10,640 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 4: Right now. 994 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:13,319 Speaker 1: You're talking about Chris Wyman that's lost five of his 995 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:15,839 Speaker 1: last seven, and then, to be fair to Yourriah Hall, 996 00:47:15,960 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 1: he's a guy that coming out of The Ultimate Fighter, 997 00:47:18,640 --> 00:47:21,600 Speaker 1: had the whole world looking at him and just really 998 00:47:21,719 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 1: kind of, I don't want to say failed to meet expectations, 999 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,560 Speaker 1: but kind of fell a little bit short every time 1000 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:29,400 Speaker 1: the lights got really bright. There were even spots in 1001 00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,799 Speaker 1: the fight with the with the Anderson Silvil fight where 1002 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,080 Speaker 1: it looked like Anderson was keeping it very competitive and 1003 00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:38,680 Speaker 1: that Anderson might be able to harness greatness one more time, 1004 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 1: and your Raiah was having those moments where the eyes 1005 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,319 Speaker 1: kind of glazed over. He went into autopilot, and then 1006 00:47:44,360 --> 00:47:47,239 Speaker 1: he'd go in between rounds, you know, sayef would put 1007 00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 1: him back in game mode and then he'd come back 1008 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 1: out and he executed very well. If you look at 1009 00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:55,200 Speaker 1: a guy like Chris Wiman, Wyman from a mental standpoint 1010 00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:59,399 Speaker 1: always believes he's one or two great performances away from 1011 00:47:59,440 --> 00:48:02,319 Speaker 1: getting back to the title picture, whether or not there's 1012 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:06,239 Speaker 1: any accuracy to that. You know, matchmaking's funny sometimes, but 1013 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 1: if to your point, if he's going to rewind, if 1014 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,480 Speaker 1: he's going to dial it back, or if he's going 1015 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: to reset father times clock, he has got to beat 1016 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:18,320 Speaker 1: a guy like your Rya Hall. We've seen him be 1017 00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: able to do that before. He's got wins over Anderson Silva, 1018 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:22,600 Speaker 1: who won your Rya Hall was coming out of The 1019 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:26,520 Speaker 1: Ultimate Fighter, was getting comparisons to and Anderson Silva. My 1020 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:29,120 Speaker 1: concern with your Rya Hall betting him going into this 1021 00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:32,239 Speaker 1: is that this is a make or break fight as 1022 00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:34,839 Speaker 1: far as career trajectory is concerned. He has to beat 1023 00:48:34,880 --> 00:48:37,120 Speaker 1: Chris Widman. You have got to beat a Chris Widman 1024 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:39,960 Speaker 1: that's lost five of the last seven. If you're Chris Widman, 1025 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: you have absolutely got to beat your Rya Hall or 1026 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,880 Speaker 1: you're done. You're done in the sense that you're not 1027 00:48:45,960 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 1: going to get that many big spots. He got a 1028 00:48:48,560 --> 00:48:49,879 Speaker 1: I don't want to say a layup, but he got 1029 00:48:49,880 --> 00:48:53,000 Speaker 1: a pretty decent spot favorable with Omar Akhmedov. He got 1030 00:48:53,000 --> 00:48:55,279 Speaker 1: the decision win. You've got to go out there and 1031 00:48:55,320 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 1: show that you've still got it against a guy. To 1032 00:48:57,560 --> 00:49:01,400 Speaker 1: Kenny's point, that seems to be entering that of performance 1033 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:02,319 Speaker 1: that we knew that he. 1034 00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:03,120 Speaker 2: Was capable of. 1035 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,959 Speaker 1: He's got to clip those wings and keep your Ryah 1036 00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 1: from flying, and he's got to do it right now 1037 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:11,160 Speaker 1: if he has any shot moving forward. I'm going to 1038 00:49:11,200 --> 00:49:13,359 Speaker 1: go with Chris Widman here, which seems crazy. A lot 1039 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 1: of my listeners are going to be like, what the 1040 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,320 Speaker 1: hell is happening here? Why is Dale taking Chris Widman. Honestly, 1041 00:49:18,400 --> 00:49:20,320 Speaker 1: I was on your Rya until I started talking, and 1042 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 1: I believe I just talked myself into Chris Widman. 1043 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:22,960 Speaker 4: How about that? 1044 00:49:23,040 --> 00:49:25,680 Speaker 1: Based on the fact that your Riah has really come 1045 00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:27,800 Speaker 1: up a little bit short whenever the lights are the brightest. 1046 00:49:27,840 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 2: Do I think he should win this fight? 1047 00:49:29,200 --> 00:49:29,439 Speaker 4: Yes? 1048 00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:31,839 Speaker 1: But am I concerned about the mental Yes? So I'm 1049 00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 1: going to go Chris Widman here. 1050 00:49:33,080 --> 00:49:35,400 Speaker 4: All right. I'm curious to see where that betting line closes. 1051 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:38,080 Speaker 4: Ken Flow, I think you were on mute there, But 1052 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,239 Speaker 4: I do think that Kenny's pretty persuasive when it comes 1053 00:49:41,239 --> 00:49:44,279 Speaker 4: to he can. I was just that's exactly right. My 1054 00:49:44,360 --> 00:49:47,280 Speaker 4: mind control methods are working people right, exactly. 1055 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,960 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. I think Kenny has the best hotel 1056 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:52,880 Speaker 1: WiFi I've ever seen in my life. This guy's in 1057 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: crystal clear four KHD. I can't. I mean, with respect 1058 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,759 Speaker 1: to my co host Trey, he's not Ken Flow. This 1059 00:49:59,840 --> 00:50:02,080 Speaker 1: is this is not fair, man, God. 1060 00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:04,520 Speaker 4: And I'm sitting here looking at these accommodations. Thank god. 1061 00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,640 Speaker 4: I've been at a Holiday and Express for eighteen months. 1062 00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 4: Where are they're putting these guys up? 1063 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:08,480 Speaker 9: I know? 1064 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,040 Speaker 4: All right, title fights the rest of the way, fellas, 1065 00:50:11,040 --> 00:50:13,520 Speaker 4: and we're gonna have Dale lead all three of these 1066 00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:19,480 Speaker 4: flyweight championship Valentina Chepchenko minus four hundred against Jessica andraj 1067 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:20,600 Speaker 4: who is plus three hundred. 1068 00:50:20,640 --> 00:50:20,839 Speaker 3: Dale. 1069 00:50:20,840 --> 00:50:22,320 Speaker 4: As you know, we'll need the round of the method 1070 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 4: of victory. So if you look at the odds history 1071 00:50:24,600 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 4: for Valentina Chepchanko, she has been a larger betting favorite 1072 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:32,320 Speaker 4: for all four previous title defenses Jessica Ilis, Karmus Kitland 1073 00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:36,080 Speaker 4: Hukegi and Jennifer Maya. Andrage as credentials as it gets. 1074 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 4: I don't have to set this up for you, guys. 1075 00:50:37,600 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 4: Former Charawi Champ one of the most accomplished women in 1076 00:50:40,160 --> 00:50:43,160 Speaker 4: UFC history, wins in three different weight classes. Nineteenth UFC 1077 00:50:43,200 --> 00:50:47,240 Speaker 4: appearance for Andrage, very competitive for last time out against 1078 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:50,400 Speaker 4: Caitlyn Shukegian of course with a win, and then competitive 1079 00:50:50,400 --> 00:50:54,000 Speaker 4: against Rosenami Unis to fight prior. I'm curious Dale if 1080 00:50:54,040 --> 00:50:56,439 Speaker 4: you see any value at all on the Andrage side, 1081 00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 4: and ultimately, which way are you going? 1082 00:50:59,360 --> 00:51:01,160 Speaker 1: I think if you're up on the night and you 1083 00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:03,080 Speaker 1: want to make a little extra beer money and finish 1084 00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:04,400 Speaker 1: things with a bang, go ahead. 1085 00:51:04,200 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 4: And throw it. 1086 00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 1: Throw a little spot on Deroge for my money. Though 1087 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: that she's on top, I would not touch her at all. 1088 00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:14,719 Speaker 1: Chef Chenko, she's a fighter. She's in rarefied air here, right. 1089 00:51:15,080 --> 00:51:18,040 Speaker 1: You don't bet against Chefchenko until you see or lose 1090 00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: we haven't seen anything that's going to give us pause 1091 00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:23,600 Speaker 1: short of Amanda Nonas to say this woman's going to 1092 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,920 Speaker 1: lose a fight anytime soon. If you're looking at Chefchenko here, 1093 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,640 Speaker 1: you need to try to find a way to bring 1094 00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:32,400 Speaker 1: that number down. Chefchenko by decisions a good play. You 1095 00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 1: might think that she might get creative as the fight 1096 00:51:34,360 --> 00:51:36,800 Speaker 1: goes on. Maybe Chefchenko by submission might be something that 1097 00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,160 Speaker 1: you're looking at, just to spice things up a little bit. 1098 00:51:39,280 --> 00:51:41,680 Speaker 1: Maybe the over under on rounds I believe that's at 1099 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:43,960 Speaker 1: four and a half right now, Maybe play the under. 1100 00:51:44,520 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 1: I really just think that you got to find a 1101 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:50,040 Speaker 1: way to bring value to Valentina here, because I don't 1102 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:53,400 Speaker 1: believe outside of a puncher's chance that Onrage really is 1103 00:51:53,400 --> 00:51:56,759 Speaker 1: going to present anything that Chefchenko has not already encountered 1104 00:51:57,040 --> 00:51:59,239 Speaker 1: and handled. I don't want to say with relative ease, 1105 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:03,880 Speaker 1: but with relative she is unstoppable right now until proven otherwise, 1106 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:07,400 Speaker 1: much like Kamara Usman, until I see them lose spoiler 1107 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,279 Speaker 1: alert for the main event. Until I see them lose, 1108 00:52:10,760 --> 00:52:14,319 Speaker 1: it's going to be very hard to justify betting against them. 1109 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 1: So you got to try to whittle that number down Chefchenko, 1110 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,280 Speaker 1: you know, by decision seems like a viable play here. 1111 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 1: I wouldn't really go on draage unless you're feeling a 1112 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:26,400 Speaker 1: certain type of way with your money. We pride ourselves 1113 00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,240 Speaker 1: in being a little bit more on the frugal side. 1114 00:52:28,400 --> 00:52:29,960 Speaker 1: I'd go Chefchenko by decision. 1115 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:34,120 Speaker 4: That's me ken Fall Valentina Chefchenko nine and two in 1116 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:36,480 Speaker 4: the UFC, those only two losses, as you well know 1117 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 4: to Amanda Nenez And it's amazing to think, and we 1118 00:52:39,600 --> 00:52:42,239 Speaker 4: oftentimes say this when Valentina fights, But if you go 1119 00:52:42,280 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 4: back to UFC two fifteen in September of twenty seventeen, 1120 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 4: one judge of score card is different. The whole narrative 1121 00:52:48,320 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 4: of UFC women's history changes, right, And I still hold 1122 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,760 Speaker 4: chev Chenko in that goat conversation right there with Amanda Nunez, 1123 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:57,439 Speaker 4: But one judge of score card is all it takes 1124 00:52:57,440 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 4: to change that whole narrative. What are your thoughts, ken 1125 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:04,000 Speaker 4: flowshev Chenko andrage and how competitive will this Women's Flyway 1126 00:53:04,080 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 4: Championship might be? 1127 00:53:05,719 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 5: You know, I agree with a lot of what Dale said. 1128 00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:12,000 Speaker 5: I think this Shivchenko is the champion for a reason. 1129 00:53:12,120 --> 00:53:14,400 Speaker 5: I don't see a whole lot of challenges out there 1130 00:53:14,440 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 5: for you know. When this match was announced, I don't 1131 00:53:18,800 --> 00:53:21,960 Speaker 5: know if it was an intuition or something, but something 1132 00:53:22,000 --> 00:53:24,680 Speaker 5: told me watched out for Androge. The way that she 1133 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:27,880 Speaker 5: matches up against Valentine. I think she poses some very 1134 00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:33,879 Speaker 5: interesting problems for Shifchenko because in the clinch, sometimes Shivchenko 1135 00:53:34,000 --> 00:53:37,080 Speaker 5: will actually engage and try to throw her opponent. We'll 1136 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:40,839 Speaker 5: try to do foot trips, and she's successful more often 1137 00:53:40,880 --> 00:53:43,360 Speaker 5: than not, There's no doubt about that. But Androge and 1138 00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:46,960 Speaker 5: the clinch is a completely different animal. She is extremely powerful. 1139 00:53:47,000 --> 00:53:52,040 Speaker 5: We know how strong her takedowns are, and sometimes Shiftchenko 1140 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,480 Speaker 5: will scrip a takedown here and there and find herself 1141 00:53:54,520 --> 00:53:56,640 Speaker 5: on bottom. I don't think she wants to be there 1142 00:53:56,680 --> 00:53:58,960 Speaker 5: for too long a get someone like Androge. I do 1143 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,200 Speaker 5: think she's gonna be able to whether that's storm. I 1144 00:54:01,280 --> 00:54:05,160 Speaker 5: do think it's going to be another schev Cheko decision here. 1145 00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,319 Speaker 5: It may not be the most exciting fight, but I 1146 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 5: don't see chevchek O losing, and I don't see her 1147 00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:15,840 Speaker 5: losing anytime soon. She's extremely motivated. She's a martial artist 1148 00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,959 Speaker 5: all the way to her phones. I think she gets 1149 00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:20,360 Speaker 5: the win here. And retaints her title. 1150 00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,600 Speaker 4: I love the way you broke that down, both of you, man, 1151 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,200 Speaker 4: And wouldn't that be something if ANDRAJ broke through and 1152 00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:30,959 Speaker 4: joined that group of two division UFC champions, not simultaneous, 1153 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:33,359 Speaker 4: but a lot in front of andrag this weekend, all 1154 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,359 Speaker 4: right shawet title fight Jeongwei Lee minus one ninety five, 1155 00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:39,360 Speaker 4: Rosanama unis plus one fifty five. This's the closest on 1156 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:41,799 Speaker 4: paper of the three title fights, and it is the 1157 00:54:41,840 --> 00:54:45,719 Speaker 4: second title defense for jeangwe Lee, first since that insane 1158 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 4: encounter with Joanna Young jcheck that I watched back this 1159 00:54:48,120 --> 00:54:50,719 Speaker 4: week and again scorder for Yon jcheck that was March 1160 00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 4: of twenty twenty. Thug rose out since the win by 1161 00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 4: split decision over Jessica ANDRAJ. Of course, she was bruised 1162 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,120 Speaker 4: and battered late dale, but did enough early to win 1163 00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 4: that fight. She has only fought once, respectively in twenty eighteen, nineteen, 1164 00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,279 Speaker 4: and twenty and Noma Uni is still just twenty eight 1165 00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:10,920 Speaker 4: years old. What does she have for the champion, Jeongweley? 1166 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:16,239 Speaker 1: I think she presents some unique challenges for Wayley. And 1167 00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,600 Speaker 1: you know, one of the things that she does really 1168 00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 1: well is she cuts angles and moves. 1169 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:21,840 Speaker 4: Laterally very well. 1170 00:55:22,520 --> 00:55:24,800 Speaker 1: A lot of the people that you know, especially Yoanna, 1171 00:55:25,160 --> 00:55:28,120 Speaker 1: when she's coming at or when she was coming up Wayley, 1172 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:31,000 Speaker 1: she was coming in, it was very much moving center 1173 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:33,480 Speaker 1: or moving forward, moving backwards, and it was fifty to 1174 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:36,080 Speaker 1: fifty exchanges. They would come in, engage in a fifty 1175 00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,040 Speaker 1: to fifty exchange and then back out and then come in, 1176 00:55:38,080 --> 00:55:40,400 Speaker 1: and it was just like watching two rams just go 1177 00:55:40,560 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 1: at it over and over and over again. But Rose 1178 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:46,280 Speaker 1: moves very well laterally, she cuts angles, and you can't 1179 00:55:46,280 --> 00:55:49,120 Speaker 1: discount the coaching and the fact that she has the 1180 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:53,360 Speaker 1: big show experience. I just wonder if red Pill Rose 1181 00:55:53,880 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 1: is going to be able to put it all together 1182 00:55:56,160 --> 00:56:01,520 Speaker 1: here against a woman like Jeongweley that really has shown 1183 00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,440 Speaker 1: herself to kind of be indestructible in the ways that 1184 00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,319 Speaker 1: Rose would need to get this fight done. We haven't 1185 00:56:07,320 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 1: seen anybody really threaten her with submissions. We haven't really 1186 00:56:09,840 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 1: seen her rocked despite taking Joanna's best shots. So is 1187 00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 1: Rose going to have more power? Is she going to 1188 00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 1: carry more power than Yoanna? She might have more of 1189 00:56:19,000 --> 00:56:22,120 Speaker 1: a submission threat, But my concern with Rose is that, 1190 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,839 Speaker 1: like all flowers, she tends to wilt the longer she's out, 1191 00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:28,840 Speaker 1: the longer she goes, the more things. 1192 00:56:28,600 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 2: Start to happen. 1193 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:31,640 Speaker 1: If you look at the Andrage fight, the first seven 1194 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:35,360 Speaker 1: minutes and fifty seconds of that fight, she was on point, 1195 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 1: using the jab, cutting angles, moving her head. She looked fantastic, 1196 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 1: and then slowly the bruiser that is Jessica Andrage started, 1197 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,399 Speaker 1: the toucher started, The toucher started to wear her down 1198 00:56:45,440 --> 00:56:47,759 Speaker 1: a little bit, and then Rose started to wilt. And 1199 00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:50,040 Speaker 1: then to your point, at the end of the fight, 1200 00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:52,600 Speaker 1: she was battered, her eye was leaking, she was in 1201 00:56:52,680 --> 00:56:55,480 Speaker 1: bad shape. If that was a five round fight, you'd 1202 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 1: be hard pressed to convince me that Rose was going 1203 00:56:57,680 --> 00:57:02,400 Speaker 1: to win that. So you take that that same analogy 1204 00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:03,799 Speaker 1: or whatever you want to call it, and put that 1205 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:06,960 Speaker 1: again in a prototype that is Jongwei Lee, and tell 1206 00:57:07,000 --> 00:57:10,680 Speaker 1: me how she doesn't batter her despite probably dropping the 1207 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,040 Speaker 1: first round maybe two, but rounds three, four, and five. 1208 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:17,200 Speaker 1: I believe here solely going to belong to the champion, 1209 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:19,320 Speaker 1: and I would look here if you need a round 1210 00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,680 Speaker 1: and method of victory. I'm looking for a late stoppage 1211 00:57:22,200 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 1: by Jong. I'm going to go round four TKO. 1212 00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:29,160 Speaker 4: How about that round four t KO for Jeongwei Lee 1213 00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:32,200 Speaker 4: and again nicely done on the breakdown. Dale. Yeah, ken Fill, 1214 00:57:32,200 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 4: I just have so much respect for both of these athletes, 1215 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:38,040 Speaker 4: and I think we've all enjoyed sort of following Jongwei 1216 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:40,440 Speaker 4: Lee and her training habits from Afar, and you know 1217 00:57:40,480 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 4: how much Rose has put into this. Every time she 1218 00:57:42,760 --> 00:57:45,120 Speaker 4: makes the walk, you know she's going all in chips 1219 00:57:45,120 --> 00:57:47,360 Speaker 4: to the center of the table, leaving no stone unturned, 1220 00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,040 Speaker 4: Ken Flow, I've been dying to know which way you're 1221 00:57:50,080 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 4: going to fall on this title fight. Is it going 1222 00:57:51,720 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 4: to be the favorite Jongway Lee or rosanama Unis in 1223 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:57,919 Speaker 4: the plus one fifty five range. I love this fight. 1224 00:57:58,240 --> 00:57:59,800 Speaker 4: I'm truly fascinated by it. 1225 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be an intriguing one and 1226 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,280 Speaker 5: I think it's going to be a very technical fight, 1227 00:58:05,440 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 5: and I think it has to be for Rosenam Mutis 1228 00:58:07,640 --> 00:58:09,800 Speaker 5: more than it is for Jeanghuai Lee. I think jhanghwe 1229 00:58:09,920 --> 00:58:13,240 Speaker 5: Lee can brawl, as we all found out against Yanna 1230 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:16,000 Speaker 5: Young Kcheck. She can certainly do that, and she is 1231 00:58:16,840 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 5: tough as nails. I think that she's going to have 1232 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:22,760 Speaker 5: to find a way to get on the inside, and 1233 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,160 Speaker 5: I just don't think it's gonna be easy for her. 1234 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 5: I think Rose now Munus is Jab needs to be 1235 00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 5: on fire on Saturday night. She's gonna have to keep 1236 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:34,960 Speaker 5: Jangwue Lee on the outside with jabs and kicks and movement, 1237 00:58:35,240 --> 00:58:37,920 Speaker 5: and if Jangui Lee does try to get in close 1238 00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 5: and fire off those rapid fire combinations, Rose is going 1239 00:58:41,360 --> 00:58:43,080 Speaker 5: to have to look for a way to clink her 1240 00:58:43,200 --> 00:58:46,400 Speaker 5: up and possibly take it to the mat. And like 1241 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 5: Dale was saying, I think we haven't seen Jeangwue Lee 1242 00:58:49,440 --> 00:58:52,160 Speaker 5: really challenge on the mat. I think if there's someone 1243 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:54,960 Speaker 5: who could do it, it is definitely Roseenow Mutis. But 1244 00:58:55,040 --> 00:58:57,920 Speaker 5: I think we forget how technical Rosenow Munus is on 1245 00:58:57,960 --> 00:59:00,320 Speaker 5: the feet as well. I think that if there's someone 1246 00:59:00,320 --> 00:59:03,880 Speaker 5: who's going to be quicker with their combination, who's going 1247 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:06,959 Speaker 5: to be able to fire those combinations off and sting them, 1248 00:59:07,240 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 5: it's probably Jangwai Lee. But I think we also underrate 1249 00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 5: the power of Nommunis to a certain extent. I mean, 1250 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 5: she definitely hurt. You want a young j check uh. 1251 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:20,320 Speaker 5: You know in the second fight. We all know that 1252 00:59:20,360 --> 00:59:23,720 Speaker 5: she obviously you know, knocked her out in the first, 1253 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:28,320 Speaker 5: But you know, I think that Rose is is a 1254 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:31,240 Speaker 5: developing martial artist. She's training all the time. She always 1255 00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 5: comes back with, you know, new tricks. She's always coming 1256 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 5: back a little bit smarter. I like Rose noam Unis 1257 00:59:36,920 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 5: in this one by decision. I don't think it's going 1258 00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:41,960 Speaker 5: to be easy. I could certainly see Jiangwai Lee winning, 1259 00:59:42,240 --> 00:59:44,120 Speaker 5: but maybe it's because of a big. 1260 00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 4: Rose noam Unis. But I'm going with Rose here, little 1261 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,720 Speaker 4: ada juice for me now watching that fight octagon side. 1262 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:51,200 Speaker 4: All right, let us get to the main event. It 1263 00:59:51,280 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 4: is Kamara Usman minus four hundred Jorge Game Brett Mosfvedal 1264 00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:57,800 Speaker 4: plus three hundred for the undisputed UFC welterweight title. So 1265 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:01,560 Speaker 4: last July quick back drop, mos Fiedal steps in for 1266 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 4: Gilbert Burns. I truly couldn't believe when I got the 1267 01:00:04,640 --> 01:00:07,040 Speaker 4: text from my boss that he was taking the fight. 1268 01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:10,200 Speaker 4: There were rumblings that maybe he wasn't well just an 1269 01:00:10,240 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 4: absolute warrior. But Usman I think deserves ample credit as 1270 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:17,520 Speaker 4: well for the performance for staying focused in you know, 1271 01:00:17,560 --> 01:00:20,640 Speaker 4: going from fighting to teammate to a grudge match type fight. 1272 01:00:21,200 --> 01:00:23,680 Speaker 4: And I'm okay with with Usman wanting this fight again, 1273 01:00:23,720 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 4: not only is it the biggest money fight, but ken 1274 01:00:25,520 --> 01:00:27,920 Speaker 4: Flow it seems like he wants a more decisive result 1275 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 4: and he only fought what will be seventy seventy one 1276 01:00:31,320 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 4: days ago. Dale did Kamar Usman in defense in mid 1277 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:38,000 Speaker 4: February against Gilbert Burns. So Dale Lippin, you're on the clock. 1278 01:00:38,040 --> 01:00:40,880 Speaker 4: Who wins the main event and how do they get 1279 01:00:40,920 --> 01:00:41,360 Speaker 4: it done? 1280 01:00:42,160 --> 01:00:45,600 Speaker 1: To me, it's very hard to go against a guy 1281 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:48,760 Speaker 1: that just fifty forty three the man he's getting ready 1282 01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:51,880 Speaker 1: to fight again. That's very I mean, that's I usually 1283 01:00:51,920 --> 01:00:54,920 Speaker 1: don't go as heavy chalk as we're going this, you 1284 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:59,400 Speaker 1: know this show. However, if you look at what I 1285 01:00:59,520 --> 01:01:01,960 Speaker 1: value as far as what I want to see out 1286 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:06,040 Speaker 1: of a fighter, you know, unlimited cardio, a strong foundation 1287 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:09,440 Speaker 1: in wrestling, and an ability to make things ugly when 1288 01:01:09,480 --> 01:01:11,360 Speaker 1: it needs to be, in technical when it has to be. 1289 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:15,400 Speaker 1: Kamara Usman embodies those things and the move out to 1290 01:01:15,760 --> 01:01:18,080 Speaker 1: you know, working with Trevor Whitman, that jab that we 1291 01:01:18,120 --> 01:01:21,560 Speaker 1: saw again in the Gilbert Burns fight was something that 1292 01:01:21,840 --> 01:01:24,920 Speaker 1: was a new tool that we have seen in a 1293 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:28,760 Speaker 1: developing fighter. What concerns me about Jorge Masvidal, who has 1294 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:31,760 Speaker 1: been fighting you know honestly, since I was probably in 1295 01:01:31,840 --> 01:01:34,520 Speaker 1: high school and then has been around the block and 1296 01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:36,000 Speaker 1: has a wealth of experience. 1297 01:01:36,640 --> 01:01:38,400 Speaker 2: I don't know what Jorge is. 1298 01:01:38,400 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 1: Going to add in the next you know, with a 1299 01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:44,520 Speaker 1: full camp that he maybe didn't necessarily have skill set 1300 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 1: wise going into this fight, right What new tool is 1301 01:01:49,120 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 1: Mosvedal going to add that Usman is not going to 1302 01:01:51,400 --> 01:01:53,320 Speaker 1: be ready for. If you look at a guy like Kamorrow, 1303 01:01:53,560 --> 01:01:56,680 Speaker 1: he's still despite his record, still relatively young in the sport. 1304 01:01:56,960 --> 01:01:59,480 Speaker 1: He can add new things, he can add new skills, 1305 01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: he can put upgrades on that game and make it better. 1306 01:02:02,720 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 1: That jab is an upgrade that we've seen a guy 1307 01:02:06,640 --> 01:02:09,640 Speaker 1: like Masvidal. What's Mazvedal going to add to his skill 1308 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:12,800 Speaker 1: set that Usman can't be prepared for this time? Can 1309 01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,360 Speaker 1: you teach an old dog in Juree Masvidal a new 1310 01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:18,120 Speaker 1: trick that will get Usman out of there? I don't 1311 01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:21,960 Speaker 1: necessarily know that you can, and you can't discount the 1312 01:02:21,960 --> 01:02:24,920 Speaker 1: coaching and the teachability of a guy like Kamar Usman. 1313 01:02:25,160 --> 01:02:28,000 Speaker 1: What concerns me about him being so heavy on the 1314 01:02:28,080 --> 01:02:30,360 Speaker 1: chalk side here is that he got cracked in the 1315 01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:33,280 Speaker 1: Gilbert Burns fight. He was in trouble there for a 1316 01:02:33,280 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 1: little bit, he steadied himself and then ultimately got Gilbert 1317 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:37,920 Speaker 1: out of there. One of the things that makes me 1318 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:40,400 Speaker 1: so nervous is when you have a guy that is 1319 01:02:40,440 --> 01:02:43,840 Speaker 1: predominantly a wrestler and he gets a knockout victory. It's 1320 01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:46,160 Speaker 1: almost like he falls in love with his hands and 1321 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,200 Speaker 1: that's what he wants to do. He's like, Oh, that 1322 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,720 Speaker 1: felt really great. I want to do that again, and 1323 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:52,760 Speaker 1: it sort of takes them out. So you add the 1324 01:02:52,800 --> 01:02:55,720 Speaker 1: added component of the animosity that he feels towards Masvidal. 1325 01:02:56,000 --> 01:02:58,280 Speaker 1: You have the fact that he's coming off of a 1326 01:02:58,360 --> 01:03:02,440 Speaker 1: victory where his hands really never looked better, and you just, 1327 01:03:02,880 --> 01:03:06,160 Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't want him to get away 1328 01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,080 Speaker 1: from what got him to the big show, right, Like, 1329 01:03:08,160 --> 01:03:11,000 Speaker 1: just do what you did to make yourself a champion, 1330 01:03:11,240 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 1: collect your check, and get out of there. I think 1331 01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:16,920 Speaker 1: it's harder to dominate somebody for twenty five minutes than 1332 01:03:16,960 --> 01:03:18,280 Speaker 1: it is to go out there and knock them out 1333 01:03:18,320 --> 01:03:20,240 Speaker 1: in one minute. And if you go out there and 1334 01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:22,760 Speaker 1: you completely blank him on the scorecards two fights in 1335 01:03:22,800 --> 01:03:26,360 Speaker 1: a row, you essentially kill Hora Mositol's title aspirations. As 1336 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: long as you're in the division, nobody's going to want 1337 01:03:28,800 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 1: to see that. Again, you get fifty forty three twice 1338 01:03:31,360 --> 01:03:33,440 Speaker 1: in a row, despite having a full camp or a 1339 01:03:33,480 --> 01:03:34,080 Speaker 1: shortened camp. 1340 01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:35,040 Speaker 4: It's a wrap. Man. 1341 01:03:35,040 --> 01:03:36,720 Speaker 1: You're going to have to get a different champion there 1342 01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:39,320 Speaker 1: in order to make any sort of argument that Hora 1343 01:03:39,520 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 1: needs to be a needs to be in title contention. Again, 1344 01:03:43,320 --> 01:03:47,040 Speaker 1: I'm taking usman by decision yet again, it's chalky as hell, 1345 01:03:47,080 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 1: But yeah, why not take that? 1346 01:03:49,320 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 4: I don't know, I understand, and I'd imagine when we 1347 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,280 Speaker 4: talked to Joe Osborne here in a little bit that 1348 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 4: he's probably going to be leaning towards that proposition as well. 1349 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 4: Ken Flow, what do you think about this main event 1350 01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 4: and how different and it could be from what we 1351 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:01,919 Speaker 4: saw last July. 1352 01:04:03,240 --> 01:04:06,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, listen, I think that Jae Masvidal is 1353 01:04:06,000 --> 01:04:07,720 Speaker 5: going to be way more prepared, He's going to have 1354 01:04:07,800 --> 01:04:10,480 Speaker 5: way more energy. I think his weight cut is going 1355 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:16,560 Speaker 5: to be way easier. All that said, All that said again, 1356 01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:21,200 Speaker 5: it is hard to go against any other pick. I mean, 1357 01:04:22,720 --> 01:04:24,920 Speaker 5: one of the most consistent picks you can make in 1358 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:26,760 Speaker 5: all of mixed martial arts is Kamara Uzma. 1359 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:29,280 Speaker 4: By session against anybody. 1360 01:04:29,320 --> 01:04:34,200 Speaker 5: So kamar Uzman his wrestling, his ability to develop, his striking, 1361 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:39,320 Speaker 5: his consistency, his chin, his toughness, he already knows what 1362 01:04:39,480 --> 01:04:41,960 Speaker 5: to do against someone like the Jorge maz Vidal. He 1363 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:45,600 Speaker 5: has practiced doing it already, and what he does as well, 1364 01:04:45,760 --> 01:04:50,160 Speaker 5: he can make his adjustments as well. However, wrestling all 1365 01:04:50,200 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 5: the time, wrestling, grappling in general, is extremely difficult to 1366 01:04:55,440 --> 01:04:58,959 Speaker 5: just get better at in three months, six months, a year, 1367 01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:03,520 Speaker 5: two years. Right, striking, you can make some pretty good improvements, 1368 01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 5: you know, in three months six months in my opinion, 1369 01:05:07,520 --> 01:05:10,000 Speaker 5: if you're a good athlete and you have a good coach. 1370 01:05:10,120 --> 01:05:14,280 Speaker 5: But with grappling, it's just not like that. It takes years. 1371 01:05:14,520 --> 01:05:17,640 Speaker 5: It takes years. And kamara Uzman has such an advantage 1372 01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:21,680 Speaker 5: there that I think that it's going to be another clinch. 1373 01:05:21,840 --> 01:05:25,560 Speaker 5: Get him up against the fence, take down, rinse, wash, repeat. 1374 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:30,360 Speaker 5: Kamara Uzman by decision. I love Jorge Masvidal following his 1375 01:05:30,440 --> 01:05:32,919 Speaker 5: career since the very beginning, since before he was even 1376 01:05:32,960 --> 01:05:35,760 Speaker 5: in the UFC, But I just think this is one 1377 01:05:35,760 --> 01:05:38,040 Speaker 5: of those matchups that's always going to be difficult for him. 1378 01:05:38,040 --> 01:05:43,080 Speaker 5: He's undersize here against tomorrow and Uzman's just been on 1379 01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 5: fire Man. 1380 01:05:44,520 --> 01:05:46,720 Speaker 4: I love both of these guys as individuals. I can't 1381 01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:48,720 Speaker 4: wait to see what game Bread can do with this 1382 01:05:48,920 --> 01:05:52,600 Speaker 4: second unique opportunity. But if I had an MMA capper 1383 01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:55,400 Speaker 4: come on here and just say thirteen to er kamorro 1384 01:05:55,520 --> 01:05:57,439 Speaker 4: Usman in the UFC, I'm going back to the well 1385 01:05:57,480 --> 01:06:01,040 Speaker 4: like I wouldn't necessarily need much more analysis than that. Necessarily. 1386 01:06:01,560 --> 01:06:04,080 Speaker 4: If you want more from Dale Lippin at punch List MMA, 1387 01:06:04,200 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 4: checkout his podcast.

I don't know if it gets any 1434 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:07,640 Speaker 2: better than this on a Monday night. 1435 01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:10,560 Speaker 11: You know, it's all down hill from here. So I'm 1436 01:08:10,600 --> 01:08:11,439 Speaker 11: doing pretty good. 1437 01:08:11,920 --> 01:08:12,160 Speaker 2: You know. 1438 01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:16,240 Speaker 11: We got a great event coming up, very very interesting 1439 01:08:16,280 --> 01:08:19,440 Speaker 11: from a betting perspective too, considering you know, pretty lopsided 1440 01:08:19,439 --> 01:08:21,920 Speaker 11: odds in a lot of these title fights. And of 1441 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 11: course we have the Miami Dolphins shrafting six overall in 1442 01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:28,000 Speaker 11: the draft. Here were from Thursday, So pretty pumped up 1443 01:08:28,080 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 11: for the what we have coming up on the sports calendar. 1444 01:08:31,200 --> 01:08:33,240 Speaker 4: And I know if I need you on a Monday 1445 01:08:33,280 --> 01:08:35,160 Speaker 4: night in April. I'm okay. If I need you on 1446 01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:37,760 Speaker 4: a Monday night in September, it's probably a different conversation. 1447 01:08:37,920 --> 01:08:40,840 Speaker 4: So we appreciate you joining us in your customary pay 1448 01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:44,000 Speaker 4: per view week slot. All right, so three title fights, 1449 01:08:44,040 --> 01:08:46,760 Speaker 4: so we're not going to bury the lead. Valentina Chefchenko 1450 01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:49,120 Speaker 4: is fighting Jessica on rash. Now you are getting a 1451 01:08:49,120 --> 01:08:52,919 Speaker 4: better price on Valentina Chefchenko then you have gotten recently. 1452 01:08:53,280 --> 01:08:56,400 Speaker 4: But minus four hundred is just a prohibitive price for 1453 01:08:56,479 --> 01:08:59,519 Speaker 4: a lot of people. Prohibitive meaning they just can't lay that, 1454 01:08:59,600 --> 01:09:02,479 Speaker 4: you know, forty bucks to pay ten. It just doesn't work. 1455 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:05,120 Speaker 4: So I don't know if you see any value on 1456 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:07,800 Speaker 4: the andrage side of plus three hundred. But how are 1457 01:09:07,840 --> 01:09:10,519 Speaker 4: you betting this Women's flyweight championship fight? If at all? 1458 01:09:11,040 --> 01:09:13,679 Speaker 11: We're going all props for all the title fights. Actually, 1459 01:09:13,760 --> 01:09:17,240 Speaker 11: so this one, I think this is a really good spot. 1460 01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:21,080 Speaker 11: You can get Chevchenko inside the distance at plus money, guys, 1461 01:09:21,120 --> 01:09:22,320 Speaker 11: plus one thirty five. 1462 01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:24,400 Speaker 2: I like that spot quite a bit. 1463 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 11: So very interesting stylistically from a striking perspective, right, you 1464 01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:31,680 Speaker 11: have the patients and precision of chevchenk o versus the 1465 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 11: power of onrage who gives it a lot lens over 1466 01:09:35,280 --> 01:09:38,200 Speaker 11: six significant strikes per minute, but also takes it a lot, 1467 01:09:38,600 --> 01:09:42,320 Speaker 11: absorbs over five significant strikes per minute. I think that's 1468 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:45,880 Speaker 11: ultimately going to be here undoing in this fight because 1469 01:09:46,600 --> 01:09:50,800 Speaker 11: take a look at some recent opponents for Chevchenko, the 1470 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:54,640 Speaker 11: aggressive ones may be a bit more defensively challenged. In 1471 01:09:55,040 --> 01:09:59,360 Speaker 11: Caitlyn Chikugi and I they were both put away inside 1472 01:09:59,479 --> 01:10:02,840 Speaker 11: of three. Both of those fighters absorb over four significant 1473 01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:06,000 Speaker 11: strikes per minute. And you know, we've see Andra, She's 1474 01:10:06,040 --> 01:10:09,120 Speaker 11: been finished a handful of times in the UFC, and 1475 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:11,680 Speaker 11: I do think her aggressive nature that's going to leave 1476 01:10:11,720 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 11: the door open for some openings for that precision from 1477 01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:20,120 Speaker 11: set Schevchenko and also Shivchenko four its reach advantage in 1478 01:10:20,160 --> 01:10:22,880 Speaker 11: this fight. Guys, that's pretty big for this division, right, 1479 01:10:22,960 --> 01:10:28,200 Speaker 11: So Schevchenko plus money to win inside of five rounds 1480 01:10:28,280 --> 01:10:31,679 Speaker 11: versus a very aggressive striker, that might be my favorite 1481 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:33,479 Speaker 11: bet on this entire car. 1482 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:35,479 Speaker 4: Joe. 1483 01:10:35,520 --> 01:10:38,719 Speaker 5: For me, the most intriguing fight is Rose now Munis 1484 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,520 Speaker 5: against Joangway Lee. 1485 01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:42,920 Speaker 4: How do you see this going down? I ended up 1486 01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:48,320 Speaker 4: picking Rose now Munis. What do you see here? Yeah? 1487 01:10:48,320 --> 01:10:52,920 Speaker 11: Well, Rose's improvement over the course of her UFC career. 1488 01:10:53,400 --> 01:10:56,200 Speaker 11: She's approved by leaps and bands from a striking perspective, 1489 01:10:57,160 --> 01:10:59,559 Speaker 11: with Trevor Whitman as the head coach. 1490 01:10:59,680 --> 01:10:59,840 Speaker 4: Right. 1491 01:10:59,880 --> 01:11:01,840 Speaker 2: But here's what this comes down to me. 1492 01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:04,439 Speaker 11: I'm not willing to bet against the twenty one fight 1493 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:07,840 Speaker 11: win streak of Waylee in this one, and. 1494 01:11:08,520 --> 01:11:12,120 Speaker 2: At around minus two hundred, that's not too bad. Really, 1495 01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:13,080 Speaker 2: I don't mind that. 1496 01:11:15,040 --> 01:11:17,280 Speaker 11: I usually don't go that high, but I don't mind 1497 01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:19,479 Speaker 11: laying that two to one not a bad spot. 1498 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:23,040 Speaker 2: And you look at her UFC career very high. 1499 01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 11: I put you as a better striking differential than Rose 1500 01:11:26,360 --> 01:11:29,720 Speaker 11: Nama Junis. But if you're looking to get a little 1501 01:11:29,720 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 11: bit of value, if you don't like going you know, 1502 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:33,640 Speaker 11: if you are twenty fifty dollars better, you're probably not 1503 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:37,479 Speaker 11: very interested in minus two hundred odds. So I think 1504 01:11:37,520 --> 01:11:41,519 Speaker 11: we have a case here. Same with the main event, 1505 01:11:41,840 --> 01:11:45,360 Speaker 11: two fighters that are very hard to put away. Right, 1506 01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:49,679 Speaker 11: Whaley's never been finished in her career, whereas no Nama Junas. 1507 01:11:49,720 --> 01:11:52,240 Speaker 11: You might point to the andrage Ko a bit of 1508 01:11:52,280 --> 01:11:57,400 Speaker 11: a unconventional finish to that one with the slam koh Right, 1509 01:11:57,760 --> 01:11:59,600 Speaker 11: So both are very tough, and you look at the 1510 01:11:59,680 --> 01:12:05,080 Speaker 11: history of the strawweight division in the UFC or the 1511 01:12:05,160 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 11: last nine time times the title has been on the line. 1512 01:12:07,640 --> 01:12:11,080 Speaker 11: Six of those times it did end up going to decision. 1513 01:12:11,520 --> 01:12:13,479 Speaker 11: So both are very hard to put away. 1514 01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:13,920 Speaker 4: You know. 1515 01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,679 Speaker 11: I don't mind way Lee and the minus two hundred range, 1516 01:12:16,720 --> 01:12:18,559 Speaker 11: but a little bit better value, I could see it 1517 01:12:18,600 --> 01:12:21,120 Speaker 11: going to decision minus one forty five or way Lee 1518 01:12:21,200 --> 01:12:24,320 Speaker 11: once again not a bad plus money spot at plus 1519 01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:25,040 Speaker 11: one sixty. 1520 01:12:25,640 --> 01:12:28,599 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm still stuck on that chip Chenko plus money 1521 01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:32,640 Speaker 4: because it's a fun way to watch the fight too, Right, 1522 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,800 Speaker 4: I hate betting on over four and a half, you know, 1523 01:12:35,920 --> 01:12:38,040 Speaker 4: and it's like for me, I'm not betting anyway, but 1524 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:41,639 Speaker 4: it's like like I hate betting that, you know, betch 1525 01:12:41,840 --> 01:12:43,880 Speaker 4: then just root for her to put her away, right, I. 1526 01:12:43,920 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 11: Had the over four and a half and Robert Whitaker, 1527 01:12:47,479 --> 01:12:48,560 Speaker 11: Calvin Gastolm. 1528 01:12:48,800 --> 01:12:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, and there are some close calls on that one. 1529 01:12:51,439 --> 01:12:53,360 Speaker 11: So I'm setting up on my couch at you know, 1530 01:12:53,439 --> 01:12:56,120 Speaker 11: one thirty am. Just the heart beating, you know, on 1531 01:12:56,200 --> 01:12:57,679 Speaker 11: the edge of the seat, like don't. 1532 01:12:57,439 --> 01:13:00,559 Speaker 2: Finish them, don't finish them. So yeah, it's a very 1533 01:13:00,640 --> 01:13:01,280 Speaker 2: very difficult. 1534 01:13:01,320 --> 01:13:04,080 Speaker 11: It's different from you know, you watch an entire basketball 1535 01:13:04,120 --> 01:13:05,880 Speaker 11: game or a football game and. 1536 01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:08,160 Speaker 2: You hope the guy will miss the field goal or whatever. 1537 01:13:08,439 --> 01:13:11,200 Speaker 11: You know they'll they'll go four and out or something 1538 01:13:11,320 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 11: or not convert on fourth down. But it's so much 1539 01:13:13,200 --> 01:13:17,280 Speaker 11: different in fighting, where boom one hit and the fighting end, 1540 01:13:17,360 --> 01:13:19,919 Speaker 11: so very nerve acting way to watch UFC. 1541 01:13:20,320 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 4: Right, you're sitting there literally one thirty a m. Eastern time, 1542 01:13:25,680 --> 01:13:28,679 Speaker 4: praying that Whitaker takes him down and runs clock right 1543 01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:30,479 Speaker 4: instead of knocks him out, so you can go to bed. 1544 01:13:30,520 --> 01:13:33,000 Speaker 2: That's whatever you want, all right. 1545 01:13:33,120 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 4: Before we let you go. Jorge Mosfiedal taken on Kamar 1546 01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:39,439 Speaker 4: Usman again. We've trotted out the betting line minus four 1547 01:13:39,520 --> 01:13:41,639 Speaker 4: hundred on one side, plus three hundred on the other, 1548 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:45,080 Speaker 4: or so i'd imagine maybe you have a proposition on 1549 01:13:45,120 --> 01:13:46,680 Speaker 4: the Usman side. What do you got for us? 1550 01:13:46,760 --> 01:13:49,040 Speaker 11: Of course, well, Usman is the pick to win, but 1551 01:13:49,120 --> 01:13:50,960 Speaker 11: I don't think he's the best bet. You know, you 1552 01:13:51,000 --> 01:13:53,439 Speaker 11: take a look at that first fight, and obviously he 1553 01:13:53,520 --> 01:13:57,160 Speaker 11: completely dominated that fight. He landed more significant strikes and 1554 01:13:57,240 --> 01:14:00,000 Speaker 11: he landed at a higher percentage, and you know, Usman 1555 01:14:00,160 --> 01:14:03,880 Speaker 11: backers might say, well, or Masbadol Backtors might say he 1556 01:14:03,920 --> 01:14:06,160 Speaker 11: took that fight on six days notice. Well, guess what, 1557 01:14:06,400 --> 01:14:08,920 Speaker 11: Uhsman was fighting him on six days notice too, he 1558 01:14:09,040 --> 01:14:12,840 Speaker 11: was training for a completely different opponent, So he has 1559 01:14:12,960 --> 01:14:15,920 Speaker 11: a bit of an excuse there maybe as well. And 1560 01:14:16,400 --> 01:14:18,880 Speaker 11: here's a scary thing about Usman. We saw it in 1561 01:14:18,880 --> 01:14:21,600 Speaker 11: the Gilbert Burns fight. His striking is catching up to 1562 01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:24,320 Speaker 11: his wrestling, isn't it. And you know see it watching 1563 01:14:24,400 --> 01:14:28,040 Speaker 11: him fight behind that job that reminded me of a 1564 01:14:28,080 --> 01:14:31,960 Speaker 11: former welterweight great who also had a pretty good wrestling 1565 01:14:31,960 --> 01:14:33,639 Speaker 11: pedigree in George Saint. 1566 01:14:33,479 --> 01:14:34,759 Speaker 2: Pierre a little bit there. 1567 01:14:35,040 --> 01:14:38,719 Speaker 11: So you know, I think Usman, maybe even after this fighter, 1568 01:14:38,720 --> 01:14:40,120 Speaker 11: at least by the end of the year, he's going 1569 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:42,360 Speaker 11: to be in the discussion for the best pound pound 1570 01:14:42,400 --> 01:14:46,040 Speaker 11: fighter in the UFC with that striking catching. 1571 01:14:45,760 --> 01:14:47,519 Speaker 2: Up to the wrestling. 1572 01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:51,640 Speaker 11: And as for Avidol, you know, I'm not going to 1573 01:14:51,680 --> 01:14:54,720 Speaker 11: sugarcoat guys. I do think he's a little bit overrated. 1574 01:14:56,439 --> 01:14:58,960 Speaker 11: I think it's a bit of a stretch calm journeyman 1575 01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 11: that's a bit in He's better than that, but at 1576 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:04,559 Speaker 11: the championship level with a top five right now pound 1577 01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:07,040 Speaker 11: profound guy, I don't think he's going to be able 1578 01:15:07,120 --> 01:15:10,840 Speaker 11: to hang with him. So you know, what does this 1579 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:14,000 Speaker 11: come down to for the best bet? And it's another 1580 01:15:14,080 --> 01:15:17,080 Speaker 11: thing that I'm not really willing to bet against. Neither 1581 01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:20,880 Speaker 11: of these guys has been finished inside the UFC in 1582 01:15:20,920 --> 01:15:24,479 Speaker 11: their careers. That's thirty two combined fights, and neither of 1583 01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:25,880 Speaker 11: them has been finished. 1584 01:15:25,640 --> 01:15:26,679 Speaker 2: Though outside the UFC. 1585 01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 11: Masvidal is last finished way back in two thousand and 1586 01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:31,480 Speaker 11: nine in Bellator. 1587 01:15:31,560 --> 01:15:33,479 Speaker 2: I think you know something about that, John a. 1588 01:15:33,479 --> 01:15:36,840 Speaker 4: Little bit, A little bit, Yeah, Toby a Mada inverted reverse, 1589 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:41,240 Speaker 4: inverted triangle choke. My poor ass had I had called 1590 01:15:41,280 --> 01:15:43,880 Speaker 4: maybe four MMA events in my life. I'm like, what 1591 01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,800 Speaker 4: is going on here? This dude's upside down, this other 1592 01:15:46,840 --> 01:15:49,559 Speaker 4: dude's turning purple, and I'm supposed to explain what's going on. 1593 01:15:49,760 --> 01:15:52,480 Speaker 4: And the dude turning purple, of course, was Gabrid Mosfetal, 1594 01:15:52,760 --> 01:15:55,240 Speaker 4: to your point, hasn't been finished in the twelve years 1595 01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:56,320 Speaker 4: that have expired since. 1596 01:15:57,000 --> 01:15:58,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, And then then you look at Newsman. He was 1597 01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:01,320 Speaker 11: last finished way back in two in thirteen, his second 1598 01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:06,200 Speaker 11: career fight, right, so Usman by decision minus one twenty five. 1599 01:16:06,240 --> 01:16:08,240 Speaker 11: I like that quite a bit. If you think it's 1600 01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:09,760 Speaker 11: going to be a bit closer. You can get the 1601 01:16:09,760 --> 01:16:12,559 Speaker 11: fight to go the distance where either fighter can win. 1602 01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:16,599 Speaker 11: That's here at minus one seventy five. But you know, usman, 1603 01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:22,679 Speaker 11: maybe a minor red flag is very short notice fight 1604 01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:26,040 Speaker 11: because he usually has a pretty big gap between his fights. 1605 01:16:26,040 --> 01:16:29,559 Speaker 11: So maybe that I don't know, if you're looking for 1606 01:16:29,600 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 11: red flegs, if you're looking for excuses to pick Mazvidol, 1607 01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:35,000 Speaker 11: I don't see it. That's more of something that you're 1608 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:39,040 Speaker 11: guessing that that would have impacked him negatively. But he's 1609 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:42,519 Speaker 11: just so incredibly well rounded with that striking catching up 1610 01:16:42,560 --> 01:16:47,280 Speaker 11: to the wrestling. And you know a good case for 1611 01:16:47,400 --> 01:16:50,479 Speaker 11: it going to a decision is you know he's got 1612 01:16:50,479 --> 01:16:52,680 Speaker 11: that wrestling in his back pocket. He's probably going to 1613 01:16:52,720 --> 01:16:54,920 Speaker 11: try to finish him. But if masvidoal is being very 1614 01:16:54,920 --> 01:16:57,360 Speaker 11: competitive in the feed, he can lean on that wrestling 1615 01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:59,439 Speaker 11: and he can dominate in that area. He can lean 1616 01:16:59,479 --> 01:17:01,639 Speaker 11: on him up in the cage, and when you're betting overs, 1617 01:17:01,680 --> 01:17:04,160 Speaker 11: when you're betting fights to go to decisions at what 1618 01:17:04,320 --> 01:17:06,360 Speaker 11: that's what You'll love to see those guys pressing on 1619 01:17:06,360 --> 01:17:09,639 Speaker 11: each other up against the key. Thanks right right, Yeah, 1620 01:17:09,680 --> 01:17:12,759 Speaker 11: so pretty chalk heavy with if you want the champions 1621 01:17:12,800 --> 01:17:14,640 Speaker 11: to retain in this one like I do. But some 1622 01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 11: pretty good prop betting opportunities on the card for sure, and. 1623 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:22,759 Speaker 4: Should have that thirty foot octagon for you folks in Jacksonville, Florida. 1624 01:17:22,840 --> 01:17:26,080 Speaker 4: So perhaps that plays into the capping as well. All right, 1625 01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:28,639 Speaker 4: If you want more from Joe Osborne at Jtfoz on Twitter, 1626 01:17:28,680 --> 01:17:31,320 Speaker 4: you can find them on Instagram at Paper Chaser Joe 1627 01:17:32,120 --> 01:17:34,599 Speaker 4: Houston bekins next month, my friend.
