24
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,200

Speaker 2: on that card. There's big name action stars, there's big

31
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,720
Speaker 2: name debuts. There's fights deep on the undercard that we

32
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 2: care about. Nobody came here to Harris complain. This is

33
00:01:58,800 --> 00:02:00,760

Speaker 1: I will say I want to be in that Miami mood,

36
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 1: but it's freaking cold outside here in New York City.

37
00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 2: It's a little chill it is.

38
00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: It feels like That's my only complaint is that I'm

39
00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: seeing all the summary vibes in Miami and I want

40
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:14,680
Speaker 1: a little taste of it.

41
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,280

43
00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:24,079

00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 2: Put the camera on me for the human billboard that's

45
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,440
Speaker 2: not talking about right, here. Okay, let's get after it

46

48
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,519
Speaker 1: This they sent me. Cuervo sent me the same clothes

49
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,959
Speaker 1: that they sent PC. These are high quality items.

50
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,800

51
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,400

52
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:45,640
Speaker 2: Jan tru or Foss, I look kind of hard in

53
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,600

Speaker 2: cab right like I look like.

57
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,760

59
00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,480

Speaker 2: I gave you a big one there, Jed, I'm sorry

63
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:10,640
Speaker 2: You're gonna have to go deep on that.

64
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:14,399
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm comfortable with It's what eleven am. I don't

65
00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:19,000
Speaker 4: have work today.

66
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 1: And this is the now.

67
00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:20,000
Speaker 2: This is the Blanco.

68
00:03:20,160 --> 00:03:20,400
Speaker 1: Baby.

69
00:03:21,520 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 2: Can you aribao with a mixture?

70
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:24,119
Speaker 3: Yeah?

71
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:26,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course? Are you kidding? Do you think that

72
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: these celibratory. People need any kind of special way in

73
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: which the toe is on.

74
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 2: Behalf of all Colombians everywhere, could you uh okay?

75
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 1: As is customary Alcanroro.

76
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 2: Just sounds incorporated.

77
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,600
Speaker 1: We're gonna do it on your Marx consent and go.

78
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:48,560
Speaker 2: Now, got a dream that we can show now, Hey, guys,

79
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: First and foremost, I want to say something.

80
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, we know you're a fucking piece of ship.

81
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: You think that's what we know?

82
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 1: You're a shoplifting dead deep dad. You don't have to

83
00:03:59,520 --> 00:03:59,840
Speaker 1: tell us.

84
00:03:59,840 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 5: Now.

85
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 2: I'm going to say, we have really good mma this weekend.

86
00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:05,200
Speaker 2: So let's start off with there. The quality of this card.

87
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if it's a plus plus plus plus,

88
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 2: but compared to what we're used to in this ESPN

89
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: plus content farming era, this card on Saturday Luke Thomas

90
00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 2: is nine.

91
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,599
Speaker 1: Out of ten, nine out of ten, I think that's

92
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,359
Speaker 1: pretty fair. Now, if you had to nitpick, which, of course,

93
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: no card is perfect. But if you had to nitpicked,

94
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 1: I think the one thing you could say that it's

95
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 1: missing is a next level box office superstar.

96
00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 2: Yes, to bring in the casual. This is not necessarily

97
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,839
Speaker 2: a casual pulling fight, but it's top to bottom hardcore seven.

98
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:38,599
Speaker 1: You don't have a name on there, like you know,

99
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: a prime not not the current version of Connor McGregor,

100
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: but you know, the the UFC Highlight version or even

101
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: like you know, even John Jones at this point it's

102
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: still a pretty big name. You don't have that. However,

103
00:04:49,400 --> 00:04:52,000
Speaker 1: do you have quality up and down this card? Check?

104
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,440
Speaker 1: Do you have important matchups for a series of some

105
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:58,640
Speaker 1: of the better divisions in the entire sport? Check? Do

106
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:03,080
Speaker 1: you have fights with rivalry, storyline stakes, all the things

107
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,919
Speaker 1: that you would want? Check? And in particular in that

108
00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,320
Speaker 1: main event, to me, I was kind of like, well,

109
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,919
Speaker 1: you know, losing to Poria was not great. I didn't

110
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,400
Speaker 1: love that. But now when I look at it, you

111
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: have two things. I'm gonna say BC one and we'll

112
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,839
Speaker 1: get to this later. I'm sure you have the thirty

113
00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:19,760
Speaker 1: five and overstat which of course still applies one to

114
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: fifty five and down right.

115
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 2: In Rocky Pennington, and that's.

116
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: The women's side is different. The women's side is different. Challenge, Oh,

117
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,760
Speaker 1: I said fifty five and down. That's seventy and up,

118
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 1: and there had been one before him at seventy is

119
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 1: a tweener one, but here's the other one. I was

120
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 1: looking at volks resume and I was like, dude, who

121
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 1: has been finished twice and then won a full on

122
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 1: UFC title? Has that ever happened? You're saying, yeah, it's

123
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 1: never ever happened. There have been six people who have

124
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,240
Speaker 1: lost two fights and then tried to get a title.

125
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:54,560
Speaker 1: The closest was Randy katora UFC forty three, but he

126
00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,720
Speaker 1: had to change weight classes and it was only an

127
00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 1: interim title. Vulk is going to attempt something in this

128
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 1: main event that has literally never been done in the

129
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:07,080
Speaker 1: history of this organization, in any era, in any weight class,

130
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: both genders, you name, it never been done before. Holy

131
00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 1: fucking shit.

132
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, wow, he's fired up. We're gonna get deep into

133
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,800
Speaker 2: that main event very shortly. But about the totality of

134
00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:19,880
Speaker 2: the card. For how much complaining we've done on Morning

135
00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:24,320
Speaker 2: Combat on Below the Belt with with Brendan links on

136
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:28,680
Speaker 2: uh and Mike hac on MMA fighting, you have to

137
00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 2: be like, super super excited. We're allowed to do that.

138
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 2: We're allowed to take our thing out and put it

139
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,280
Speaker 2: on the table if we want, right, We'll.

140
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 4: Just hang Yeah, not not trying to do that with

141
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,640
Speaker 4: you be some Okay, look, cards awesome, cards are really

142
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 4: really good. There's this you said, you know, we can

143
00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 4: nitpick there's nothing at the top, like there's not Alex

144
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:45,840
Speaker 4: Paheta something like that.

145
00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 2: I think that's true. Oh they got you good on

146
00:06:48,279 --> 00:06:53,839
Speaker 2: that lower third. By the way to seven to eleven.

147
00:06:53,880 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 2: I live in the South. We don't have to take

148
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,440
Speaker 2: that jet all right, quick?

149
00:06:58,480 --> 00:06:59,440
Speaker 1: First, Whatever I.

150
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 4: Think is that I think you can nitpick that this

151
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 4: card is great because, as you said, BC, it's there,

152
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 4: we live in It's great in there. If you throw

153
00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:10,640
Speaker 4: this back to twenty eighteen, you're like, oh, this is

154
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 4: a good card.

155
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: This is in no area? Is this a bad card?

156
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 2: The front four fights of the evening like this, ain't

157
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 2: you give a shit about? Nor Cornwilly opened up the

158
00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,080
Speaker 2: though you can't. You can't like the first four fights

159
00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 2: are weak, but who gives a ship? Because it doesn't

160
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: matter anymore. We get such bad efforts like we just

161
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 2: watched the worst cards of all time last weekend the

162
00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 2: week before Mexico is good?

163
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,320
Speaker 1: Okay? What am I missing with my analysis?

164
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: Uh?

165
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 4: I think you can nitpick that the other parts of

166
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:44,640
Speaker 4: this card are are weaker historically not compared to correct

167
00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 4: We're not comparing two five, seventeen, two hundred like all

168
00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 4: these ones that were just top to bottom, like I

169
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:52,240
Speaker 4: can't miss these fights. But ultimately this is just like

170
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 4: this is the best card we get these days, is

171
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,560
Speaker 4: the best card of the year. And not trying to

172
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:58,560
Speaker 4: be a negative fucking nancy here, like let's have some

173
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,240
Speaker 4: fun because this the main card.

174
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: Sick. The middle prelim section is great in the early prelims, you.

175
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 1: Know, I'll just say this. Last April was UFC three hundred, right, yeah,

176
00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: and okay, but that card was stacked top to bottom,

177
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: and like you know, when they stack it like that,

178
00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,240
Speaker 1: to me, there's too much going on. I like a

179
00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 1: little bit of like I don't need to us Rick

180
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,840
Speaker 1: Rickerson at the bottom, but then at the top you've

181
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,880
Speaker 1: got you know, pound for pound talents up there.

182
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:24,320
Speaker 2: Looks like I don't need to be tuning in at

183
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:28,360
Speaker 2: four thirty pm Eastern Stus. Let's get into our We're

184
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 2: gonna hit our main event hardier. Right off the top,

185
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 2: the vacant featherweight title, Eliot Taporia is gone, and I

186
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 2: hope UFC. I hope he will be on International Fight

187
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 2: Week fighting Isla Mahachev for that lightweight title. Damn. I

188
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:42,760
Speaker 2: hope that. But for now we do have the aforementioned

189
00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: thirty six year old Alexander Volkanowski, loser of three of

190
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,320
Speaker 2: his last four, stopped in his last two fights, albeit

191
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:51,719
Speaker 2: against the number one and two pound for pound of

192
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,720
Speaker 2: the world on my CBS Sports list, in Islam Mahachev

193
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: and Elia Taporia. He welcomes a red hot Diego Lopez,

194
00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 2: Brazilian born Mexican repping five fight win streak. I do

195
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 2: want to bring in quickly the fourth member of our

196
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 2: team today, producer, director, bong enthusiast and a man who

197
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,440
Speaker 2: is only here with us today by way of an

198
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,520
Speaker 2: Australian gentleman's ball bag. It is Luke Nocido of the

199
00:09:14,600 --> 00:09:14,920
Speaker 2: main card.

200
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: Minute.

201
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,600
Speaker 2: Luke, I want to hear the the odds from you

202
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:19,719
Speaker 2: from DraftKings on this main event and anything else you

203
00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 2: want to say to the people.

204
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:23,560
Speaker 5: I believe last I looked, Volk was minus one twenty

205
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 5: two Diego plus one h two. It started Vulk like

206
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,320
Speaker 5: minus one seventy five. So money's definitely come in on

207
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 5: Diego as the week has gone on, but Volk has

208
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:34,040
Speaker 5: not been a dog yet. Personally, I don't want to

209
00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,800
Speaker 5: take him unless he's a dog. So I'm gonna wait

210
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 5: it out, all.

211
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,079
Speaker 2: Right, it will thank you so much, Long Island, Luke

212
00:09:39,240 --> 00:09:41,200
Speaker 2: that stat jed that we heard or that or the

213
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 2: line right there? What does that line tell you that

214
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,200
Speaker 2: the odds makers are trying to tell us about this

215
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 2: main event the show? Is Volkanovsky good? Or is his

216
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:53,400
Speaker 2: chin shot? Like that? To me and Will, I'm sure

217
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,440
Speaker 2: we're gonna dive into all this. I'm really excited to

218
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 2: get both your takes on this because I did a

219
00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: lot of research coming in not just for this show

220
00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 2: but through fourteen or whatever. I don't know. I don't

221
00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:05,800
Speaker 2: know the answer to that question. If his chin is there,

222
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,680
Speaker 2: I think he's gonna have a day. He is gonna

223
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 2: do something nobody has ever done before. Is his chin there, dude,

224
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's really hard to be like, his

225
00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 2: chin's gone. It's Illeo freaking upourrial. It's a head take

226
00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:23,920
Speaker 2: from five yes, short notice and Iliot de Puria like, Okay, well,

227
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 2: sure he got knocked out by Alex Pereira. Does that

228
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 2: mean his chin is shit or does it mean that

229
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 2: it's Alex Prera. I don't know the answer to that.

230
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,160
Speaker 2: The line that's gonna induce bedding or is the are

231
00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 2: the odds makers saying for as fun as Diego Lopez

232
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 2: is beating second term Ortega isn't beating Volkanovsky. He's not

233
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:43,400
Speaker 2: on this level necessarily.

234
00:10:43,440 --> 00:10:45,320
Speaker 1: I think they're nervous. I think that's exactly what it is.

235
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 1: I mean, dude, listen, listen. This is in some ways

236
00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 1: not complicated to understand, but at the same time very

237
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 1: hard to see the future. There's no real good argument

238
00:10:57,200 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: for Diego Lopez being better than Volkanovsky. It just doesn't

239
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,840
Speaker 1: exist now on the ground. Obviously, in pure jiu jitsu

240
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:04,720
Speaker 1: he probably is better or whatever, But as far as

241
00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 1: mma jiu jitsu is concerned, in the way in which

242
00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 1: vulc can manipulate that position or he's just negated completely,

243
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: doesn't seem the most relevant threat. And on the feet,

244
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,560
Speaker 1: like in terms of pure talent and ability, who they fought,

245
00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 1: who they've beaten, dude, fulk is like miles ahead of

246
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 1: this fucking guy. Like if this was prime Vulcan, I'd

247
00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: be like, this is you know, I'm not gonna say

248
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: the ya aar fight over again, but no, it's that

249
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,360
Speaker 1: something kind of like that. But dude, he's been stretched

250
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 1: twice and you could say all these he's short notice,

251
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 1: which you know, okay, okay, you know, I understand, and

252
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,760
Speaker 1: against a pooria dominant punch or fine, But like, this

253
00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,680
Speaker 1: was a guy who was dropped against let's see Chad Mendez.

254
00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 1: He was dropped against Brian.

255
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:43,840
Speaker 2: Ortega twice by Max and the remas.

256
00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,839
Speaker 1: Wice by Max in the rematch. He's been dropped numerous times,

257
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,920
Speaker 1: and he's all kind of rallied as a consequence for

258
00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,320
Speaker 1: all of Lopez's shortcomings. He's a good fighter, and to

259
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,120
Speaker 1: be clear, when I say he's nothing like Vulk, I'm

260
00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: saying we're comparing it to basically one of the highest

261
00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:00,359
Speaker 1: technical standards that we've seen. But he could swarm, he cans,

262
00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,439
Speaker 1: He has excellent finishing instincts and all he's got to

263
00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,120
Speaker 1: do is clip them, and you know, the whole shit

264
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: goes sideways, And I'm like, right, I get why the

265
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,560
Speaker 1: odds are where they are. One guy is just better

266
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 1: but compromised, and the other guy is a fucking ninja

267
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,760
Speaker 1: with the with the with the follow up, like that's

268
00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: a tough matchup, Yeah, it really is.

269
00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: People hate on podcasts like this when all we do

270
00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 2: is say, does this fight make this guy the third

271
00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 2: greatest this of all time? But I did hear John Annick,

272
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,000
Speaker 2: the Great John Ank the Voice of the Octagon. He

273
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: did an interview with R. J. Clifford where Annix said, look,

274
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,439
Speaker 2: considering the age in Luke Thomas's favorite stat if Volkanovsky

275
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:38,839
Speaker 2: comes back and wins this championship for the second time

276
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 2: coming off of those two defeats, when it's very easy

277
00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 2: to write him off even though the odds makers have

278
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 2: him as a slight favorite. That Annik believes that would

279
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,400
Speaker 2: make him kind of the most accomplished featherweight in UFC history.

280
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 2: He's fucking bananas.

281
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,920
Speaker 4: John Innick has been on a career long crusade to

282
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 4: forget the Josealdo exists.

283
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:00,680
Speaker 2: He's been doing it. We don't be smart the shit

284
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 2: talk to me because I don't understand it. Since like

285
00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 2: day two, you've been like, and here's the greatest featherweight

286
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 2: of all time because he beat Jose Aldo nine title defenses.

287
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:15,520
Speaker 2: Man like I don't know what the vult beat out.

288
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 2: Volk beat Max three times and although got stopped by

289
00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:23,800
Speaker 2: maxicos cool different goddamn eras nine defenses, come talk to

290
00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,480
Speaker 2: me when he puts up three more, it is in

291
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 2: like this will be no bones about it. Like if

292
00:13:29,400 --> 00:13:31,640
Speaker 2: if Volke comes and does it outside of this stat

293
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,720
Speaker 2: that I just learned about being the first ever do that,

294
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,600
Speaker 2: this will be the crowning achievement to one of the

295
00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:40,280
Speaker 2: ten best fighters I've ever seen, because I do believe

296
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:42,440
Speaker 2: that Alexander Volkowski is one of the ten greatest fighters

297
00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 2: of all time already. This will be that sort of

298
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,200
Speaker 2: next level greatness that you see from guys like Anderson

299
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 2: Silva and Josey Aldo and George Saint.

300
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 4: Pierre and John Jones who well after their prime, they

301
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:59,880
Speaker 4: are still able to beat good competent, like high level opposition.

302
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 2: That is what this will be. He is still well

303
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 2: short of the title defenses set by Jose Freakinaldo, who

304
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,760
Speaker 2: is the youngest champion in Zoo for history. I'm sorry

305
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,360
Speaker 2: that he you know, the WEC wasn't there and so

306
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,520
Speaker 2: John Jones gets to claim it. Jose Aldo puts some

307
00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 2: respect on his name. I don't hate here, but the

308
00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:21,520
Speaker 2: fact that that you can play the m M A

309
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,600
Speaker 2: math with those three great ones of this era, it does.

310
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,760
Speaker 2: It's not nothing, It doesn't matter into this is John

311
00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:28,960
Speaker 2: speaking out of his a hole or if Vulk does

312
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:30,440
Speaker 2: in you think you do have to focus not on

313
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,720
Speaker 2: the past, even though Vulk did start his career on

314
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:35,200
Speaker 2: a twelve fight win streak with the UFC, but you

315
00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,080
Speaker 2: got to focus on the fact that he can come

316
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,680
Speaker 2: back from two devastating knockouts and if he wins this,

317
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 2: it's gonna be that's gonna be a huge feather in

318
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 2: his all time resume.

319
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:46,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with gentleness one. Not that I love John Nix,

320
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:48,120
Speaker 1: so I don't have any ill will, but I do

321
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: agree that the that that dominance of a weight class

322
00:14:53,240 --> 00:14:56,920
Speaker 1: is best exemplified by what jose Aldo did. Uh. But again,

323
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 1: I just want to say this is this is what

324
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: I love about this fight because all so you know,

325
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,280
Speaker 1: Iliot Tuporia looms large over this main event because everyone

326
00:15:03,320 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 1: thought after he got knocked out, oh, Volk will get

327
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 1: a rematch against him, and now we're just probably not

328
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:08,400
Speaker 1: going to get that. You might have go to fifty

329
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:09,560
Speaker 1: five to get it. I don't think the UFC is

330
00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: gonna have an appetite for just one second. But the

331
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:12,880
Speaker 1: point I'm tranting to make is one reason why I

332
00:15:12,920 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: like this fight is because what Volc is actually up

333
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: against is yes, Diego Lopez, but he's up against historical obstacles.

334
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,680
Speaker 1: He's up against this thirty five stat He's up against this,

335
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:23,960
Speaker 1: as I mentioned, the two losses, getting stopped and winning

336
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 1: a title fight in your third fight, these are things

337
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 1: that just have literally never been done. And so he

338
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:31,000
Speaker 1: can kind of reclaim a version of glory not by

339
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,640
Speaker 1: avenging those things that set him down the first time,

340
00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: but by climbing new mountains. And I know I'm speaking

341
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 1: quite metaphorically here, but I don't know it. To me,

342
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: it's quite interesting actually for those reasons like that, I

343
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,280
Speaker 1: would love to see the rematch with Taporia, but this is,

344
00:15:43,280 --> 00:15:46,520
Speaker 1: to me, for all those other aforementioned reasons, almost as

345
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:47,760
Speaker 1: interesting almost.

346
00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 2: I want to want to up you there, because I've

347
00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 2: been thinking about that a lot this week. I think

348
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:54,040
Speaker 2: this is more interesting than the rematch with Tuporia, and

349
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:56,760
Speaker 2: there's more mystery, more mystery.

350
00:15:56,840 --> 00:15:59,640
Speaker 4: I think it leads to more interesting places because I

351
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:02,560
Speaker 4: agree like if you put the Taporia rematch on top

352
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 4: of this, that gives this card a little bump, right,

353
00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,560
Speaker 4: like the Taporia star power, the rivalry that's.

354
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 2: Going on there. I think that adds some juice. I

355
00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 2: would have zero qualms.

356
00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:14,360
Speaker 4: Like there, I would be here in this chair being like, yeah,

357
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 4: Tpori's gonna kill the old man again because he already

358
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 4: did it and he's getting better, and Volkanovski is coming

359
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,320
Speaker 4: all the same stuff and he's there.

360
00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 2: But the Diego Lopez match is so much more interesting.

361
00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,880
Speaker 2: And if Volk wins, now I'm more interested in a

362
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,840
Speaker 2: rematch with Tapoia. I would still pick Taporia, you know if,

363
00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 2: but if Volk goes out here and says, hey, my

364
00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:33,920
Speaker 2: chin is good.

365
00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:36,480
Speaker 4: I took some shots from a hitter, maybe not the

366
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,080
Speaker 4: same caliber of hitter in Tapoia, took some shots from

367
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 4: this young, massive dude who throws hard hammers at me,

368
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 4: and I showed that I still have it. I am

369
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,160
Speaker 4: suddenly far more interested in that rematch. I think this

370
00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:50,840
Speaker 4: is a better business decision from the AH can lead

371
00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 4: to cooler fights, and this fight itself is cooler than

372
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,800
Speaker 4: the extra coronation of Tapoia, which is what this would

373
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:57,560
Speaker 4: be if he was still right.

374
00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,960
Speaker 2: It could rejuvenate Volkanovski, a fighter that, even though he

375
00:17:00,080 --> 00:17:04,080
Speaker 2: is getting older, still demands attention, still demands critical attention.

376
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 2: Is one of the best of all time and still

377
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:08,760
Speaker 2: close enough to the pound for pound even with these

378
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 2: two losses. Obviously, the central thing we need to learn

379
00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:12,840
Speaker 2: from this fight as if he still has it. Did

380
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 2: you see the shape he came in the look for

381
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 2: this bo Yeah, these vult training videos on countdown and

382
00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,800
Speaker 2: embedded like this is like do you see him talking

383
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:23,320
Speaker 2: about it? Apparently he like actually took training seriously this time,

384
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 2: where he's like, instead of you know.

385
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 4: Patty pimbling it between fights, I've just been like serious

386
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,200
Speaker 4: the whole time, because apparently you have to do that

387
00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 4: if you're gonna be well.

388
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,520
Speaker 2: I also said on this week he once played rugby

389
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:37,760
Speaker 2: at two hundred and fourteen pounds that stet at all,

390
00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,400
Speaker 2: But uh, like would it mean less if he does

391
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:43,959
Speaker 2: it against Lopez, who hasn't had an elite win near this.

392
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,160
Speaker 2: Although I certainly respect the Ortego win and the Danny

393
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,920
Speaker 2: Gay win on one hour's notice, I don't know, it's.

394
00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,520
Speaker 1: Not it's not. First of all, Lopez is a quality opponent.

395
00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 1: He's not like the world's best guy, but is a

396
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 1: quality opponent on that level. It's not his best win,

397
00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 1: Like the beating Max three times is going to be

398
00:18:00,480 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: better than this.

399
00:18:01,320 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 2: Even trying, and he made that man stop trying to believe.

400
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,440
Speaker 1: But what I do think is true is the broader

401
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,159
Speaker 1: set of history that is trying to guide this moment

402
00:18:10,160 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: that he is trying to buck. That to me is

403
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,679
Speaker 1: what he is fighting. He is fighting the tides of

404
00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: history that is a much stronger force than any one

405
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:20,199
Speaker 1: individual fighter. And so for that reason, man, and like

406
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: you know, again, it's if if anybody can do it, it

407
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,399
Speaker 1: would be him. But this is tough. So to me,

408
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:26,880
Speaker 1: I got to tell you, I think if he goes

409
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 1: in there and beats a very dangerous diego Lopez. Unless

410
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,440
Speaker 1: Lopez goes in there and looks like ship because he's

411
00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: got staff infection on fight week or something, that would

412
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: that would that would diminish it.

413
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 2: Don't put that ship out.

414
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 1: It's like every pay per view, it's like so and

415
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,280
Speaker 1: so is dying from you know, whatever the fuck they

416
00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 1: got out. Some communicable disease.

417
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 2: Have last time, the hoof and mouth or something, or

418
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,000
Speaker 2: no neurovirus.

419
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:54,720
Speaker 1: So assuming that's not in play, I just I just

420
00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:56,159
Speaker 1: want to say it one more time. What Vulk is

421
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,400
Speaker 1: attempting is unique and special, and Lopez is the guy

422
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:01,639
Speaker 1: who presents the challenge, but it's so much bigger than that.

423
00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:04,959
Speaker 2: Absolutely, let's been at to Lopez thirty years old, as

424
00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,680
Speaker 2: people pointed out to us, like proudly rep in Mexico

425
00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 2: and people look at him as a Mexican national there,

426
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,280
Speaker 2: and the work he does coaching in the Lobo Jim correct.

427
00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Brazilian war is which they've all kind of merged.

428
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think he's turned his back on Brazil

429
00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:19,479
Speaker 2: the same level. You have India your country of origin,

430
00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 2: but I.

431
00:19:19,920 --> 00:19:20,560
Speaker 1: Was not born there.

432
00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:24,560
Speaker 2: That's okay, okay, But we know that Lopez is exciting

433
00:19:24,600 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 2: five fight win streak, has power, is willing to engage.

434
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 2: But Jed the odds tell you he's a slight underdog,

435
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:33,919
Speaker 2: almost to the point of flipping the coin. Do you

436
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:37,639
Speaker 2: believe the escalation of victories have showed us that he

437
00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 2: is ready for this level? And even if this thirty

438
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 2: six year old Vulcan is eighty percent of the old guy,

439
00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,480
Speaker 2: how are you feeling Lopez's game Max Jups matches up

440
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,280
Speaker 2: with vulk, It's not going to be prime VULC, but

441
00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,479
Speaker 2: it still could be a very, very title contending, slash

442
00:19:52,520 --> 00:19:55,479
Speaker 2: winning version of him. There's a bunch of questions. Very simply,

443
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 2: he's ready for this level, like in the the holistic Ah,

444
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 2: he deserves be in the top five of the thing

445
00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:06,000
Speaker 2: or whatever. He's a very talented fighter's very good. If

446
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:09,920
Speaker 2: Vulcan has a chin, he matches up really poor, poorly

447
00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:12,760
Speaker 2: against him. In my estimation, I think he's still the

448
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,040
Speaker 2: kind of fighter who I would say has the best

449
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,399
Speaker 2: chance against Vulk because he is dynamic and you just like,

450
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,879
Speaker 2: aren't really gonna win decisions against Alexandervolkanovski's two cerebral the

451
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:23,479
Speaker 2: ultimate point fighter in a lot of ways, even though

452
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 2: he can knock you out, he's the ultimate point.

453
00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 4: He's so good at making adjustments on the fly and

454
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,800
Speaker 4: like Max Holloway couldn't do it in three attempts, Like

455
00:20:29,840 --> 00:20:31,680
Speaker 4: it's really really hard to win that. So you've got

456
00:20:31,680 --> 00:20:34,440
Speaker 4: to bring some sort of overpowered weapon to the table,

457
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:35,560
Speaker 4: and Diego Lopez.

458
00:20:35,240 --> 00:20:35,919
Speaker 2: Can do that.

459
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:39,240
Speaker 4: But we've also seen a bunch of dudes like Yahia Rodriguez,

460
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:41,159
Speaker 4: like Brian Ortega bring those to the table and they

461
00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,560
Speaker 4: might get close or get interesting. The house always wins

462
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 4: if Vulk can withstand it, I think, and we could

463
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,800
Speaker 4: get into the nitty gritty of stuff, but like I

464
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:54,200
Speaker 4: mostly just think Diego Lopez is I got as watching tape.

465
00:20:54,359 --> 00:20:58,880
Speaker 4: I just have you ever had this experience, We're just like, oh, yeah,

466
00:20:58,880 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 4: he's just not as good is Iliotaporia. Like I was

467
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,160
Speaker 4: just watching the Taori. If I was like, he can't

468
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:07,119
Speaker 4: do any of the things is doing to make this problem.

469
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:08,639
Speaker 1: You'll be like in your mind, you'd be like, all right,

470
00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:10,119
Speaker 1: let me see that might be something here, and then

471
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 1: you watch your like yeah, no, this.

472
00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 2: Ain't lolienda, No, it honestly made.

473
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 4: And like I have a ton of respect for Eliot Toporia,

474
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:18,960
Speaker 4: but I was just like, oh.

475
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 2: You want to bang him? Like other people in this room, I.

476
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 1: Super do not know you. I perceive if I banged him,

477
00:21:25,080 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: which I'm not going to, but if I did, it

478
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,920
Speaker 1: would be as a heterosexuals.

479
00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:33,120
Speaker 2: Okay, there you go. All right, you had a point

480
00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:36,920
Speaker 2: you were in the middle of, like you know, I

481
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,399
Speaker 2: don't like mindud, that's right.

482
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,479
Speaker 4: Uh, he's just not I Tooria and watching him fight

483
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:44,119
Speaker 4: was like, oh, all the things that was doing to

484
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 4: make Volkanovsky really struggle at times like maybe Diego Lopez

485
00:21:48,640 --> 00:21:50,920
Speaker 4: can do a piece of that, but it's the whole

486
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:54,320
Speaker 4: part of it. It's having the power, having the footwork

487
00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 4: to cut the corner, to make sure Volkanovsky is never

488
00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:00,399
Speaker 4: comfortable in there, having the ability to time his counters

489
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 4: to deploy his weapons. Diego Lopez just doesn't have those

490
00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:04,399
Speaker 4: same tools.

491
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 2: Changing your rhythms, Yeah, and that's what volk said. Went

492
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:09,040
Speaker 2: went wrong in the Taporia fight was that he wasn't

493
00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 2: varying his offense enough to Poria picked up on the

494
00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 2: patterns found the opening gap entries. Absolutely, Diez does not

495
00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:19,639
Speaker 2: do a lot of all. Right, Well, Jed said something,

496
00:22:19,640 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 2: he does the same three things.

497
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,680
Speaker 1: But I will say this, he's wild a little bit. Sure,

498
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,119
Speaker 1: he is somewhat of a risk taker. As I mentioned,

499
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:28,679
Speaker 1: he's a blitzer and that element of surprise. It's not

500
00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 1: technicality per se, but it is danger and that by

501
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:33,679
Speaker 1: itself couldn't make up some of the difference. But to

502
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 1: the point that Jed raises technique versus technique, there is

503
00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:38,440
Speaker 1: a noteworthy gap here.

504
00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:42,000
Speaker 2: Well, he's saying that that Volkanovsky's chaining, the current status

505
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:43,440
Speaker 2: of it will will define this fight.

506
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 1: I think I agree with that.

507
00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,760
Speaker 2: What about the other side of it. Volkanovsky can do everything,

508
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 2: can Lopez stop a takedown. Well, we see veteran wrestling

509
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:53,800
Speaker 2: out of Volkanovsky to try to to try to mitigate

510
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,439
Speaker 2: some of the danger on the feet or will it

511
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,600
Speaker 2: not even matter? Do you think that volkanovsk can get

512
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:01,159
Speaker 2: in those footwork patterns and just make Lopez frustrated control

513
00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:04,000
Speaker 2: of that distance? How about the other parts of Lopez's

514
00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:06,639
Speaker 2: game besides the power, how will those work against.

515
00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 1: This version he's been working on his wrestling. I think

516
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:13,720
Speaker 1: it's I think I would say Lopez's wrestling is good enough,

517
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,280
Speaker 1: good enough to be a part of his game that

518
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:18,080
Speaker 1: he could leverage to some degree. I don't think he's

519
00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:19,720
Speaker 1: gonna pull guard. I don't think he's gonna go for

520
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,760
Speaker 1: flying triangle. So you know, it's not exactly if it

521
00:23:22,800 --> 00:23:24,680
Speaker 1: went to the ground. It does feel like that would

522
00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: probably happen more on Volkanovsky's terms, but that's a little

523
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: hard to say. I just feel like the thing that

524
00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: the through line for me, like what makes Lopez a

525
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,119
Speaker 1: threat is that we talked about the risk taking just

526
00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:39,679
Speaker 1: a second ago, but it's a little bit more than that.

527
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 1: He just has offense everywhere in the clinch, on the

528
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:46,960
Speaker 1: clinch break, at kickboxing, range boxing, range in tip phone

529
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: booth on top and jiu jitsu on bottom from the back,

530
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,480
Speaker 1: I mean, the whole nine. And it's all deadly too.

531
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,879
Speaker 1: It's all designed to finish the fight there. That to

532
00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:57,640
Speaker 1: me is kind of the interesting part because you go back,

533
00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,679
Speaker 1: for example, you HAVEC. Three hundred a year ago this

534
00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:02,560
Speaker 1: month where he beat Sadik Yusef. They were just a

535
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,919
Speaker 1: momentary lapse where they've break in the clinch bang and

536
00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,399
Speaker 1: he hits them with a shot and he cannot recover

537
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:12,480
Speaker 1: from there. Like again, Volkanowski is much more skilled than

538
00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:13,879
Speaker 1: I think both of those guys, and I think both

539
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:15,879
Speaker 1: of them are good fighters, but it's like a little

540
00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,760
Speaker 1: tiny window where he makes an error and the whole

541
00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 1: shit goes up in flames. That's a tough guy to fighting.

542
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,480
Speaker 2: Before this five fight win streak, Lopez had like lost

543
00:24:24,520 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 2: two of three, like he has been gaining some of that.

544
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,000
Speaker 1: He'd take it on short notice.

545
00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,880
Speaker 2: Sure, but we are seeing this man evolve. I mean,

546
00:24:30,880 --> 00:24:32,800
Speaker 2: this would be a pretty good story if he climbed

547
00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:34,119
Speaker 2: this ladder and did it and got to do it

548
00:24:34,119 --> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 2: against Volkovsky, There's no question they wouldn't that ease the

549
00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 2: transition of losing a big star like to Poria. I'm

550
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,919
Speaker 2: not saying Lopez has the same star trajectory, but at thirty,

551
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,439
Speaker 2: we consider him young because his experience is not at

552
00:24:45,480 --> 00:24:48,359
Speaker 2: the level of Volkanovski. He's fun, he's colorful. There's a

553
00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:50,679
Speaker 2: lot to like about him as potentially as champion in

554
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,960
Speaker 2: terms of like, you know, you're getting fun action fights.

555
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:54,920
Speaker 2: I want to see him against everyone he hasn't fought

556
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 2: in this division. You're getting fun action fights.

557
00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:01,040
Speaker 4: Hey, suddenly the Noche UFC that that's got a new

558
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 4: main event right there. It's your new champion coming in

559
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 4: doing that, Like, it's not going to replace Taporia, but

560
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 4: Toporia may also just go get a belt anyway, so

561
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 4: you don't maybe not need to replace him, and it

562
00:25:11,920 --> 00:25:14,399
Speaker 4: could set up the fight. I really would love to

563
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,400
Speaker 4: see the two of them fight. He could set that up,

564
00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:20,439
Speaker 4: Like I think the UFC probably wants Diego Lopez to

565
00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,000
Speaker 4: win this fight, which.

566
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,359
Speaker 2: Hey, that should be a lesson to you, Laron Murphy.

567
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 4: Being exciting matters because you've been in the UFC a

568
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,879
Speaker 4: lot longer and you are not anywhere near where Diego

569
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 4: Lopez is, so.

570
00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 2: You can be as good as you want. You should

571
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,639
Speaker 2: also be cool as shit. Oh, shots fired right there.

572
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,840
Speaker 4: Huh, Laura Murphy is a very very talented fighter and

573
00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 4: that was his best performance. And we don't need to

574
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:43,159
Speaker 4: talk about it, but coming out and be like hardcore fans,

575
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 4: no sick, all seven of them aren't going to pay

576
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:49,479
Speaker 4: your bills, Homie, be fun uh luke real quickly.

577
00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,920
Speaker 2: Who knows what I'm talking about? Speaking of this division,

578
00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,679
Speaker 2: watch and there's obviously a great fight in this division

579
00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:56,000
Speaker 2: on this pap per view main card that we'll get

580
00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 2: too shortly with the Air and Pitbull. But Aaron Pico

581
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:02,000
Speaker 2: is now officially sign of the UFC. We don't know

582
00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 2: if it will be most sarv loevre. That's still not

583
00:26:06,840 --> 00:26:10,960
Speaker 2: that's not happening that it was discussed, but it in

584
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:14,040
Speaker 2: terms of the idea of Taporia being gone, there's still

585
00:26:14,119 --> 00:26:16,240
Speaker 2: names lingering here. If you had Pico and that's fun.

586
00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:19,880
Speaker 1: Man, that's an injection, dude, forty five fucking bangs man.

587
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,879
Speaker 1: I mean again, to Poria being gone kind of sucks,

588
00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:25,640
Speaker 1: but Lopez is exciting here. He comes as a title contender.

589
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,080
Speaker 1: They're gonna put pit Bull in. I don't know what

590
00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 1: to expect from that. I got to manage expectations, but

591
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,800
Speaker 1: there's a chance he can put a little bit of

592
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 1: life with what he's got left in his career. Pico

593
00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,000
Speaker 1: to me, man, this is this is the most exciting

594
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:37,720
Speaker 1: part of his career. I was there at belt Or

595
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,040
Speaker 1: NYC for his debut that went real fucking bad, and

596
00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:44,240
Speaker 1: then he went into a journey into the quite literal deserts. Yes,

597
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,679
Speaker 1: but now he's ready to make his move out of that,

598
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,520
Speaker 1: and he has become so much better. He is such

599
00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 1: an awesome addition to this division. And you know, we

600
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,199
Speaker 1: we were all like, well, if you've got Ilia and

601
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:55,960
Speaker 1: Max and Volk at the top, no one else is

602
00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,639
Speaker 1: ever going to break through. But something kind of funny happened.

603
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:01,960
Speaker 1: Ilia left, Max left, and we don't really know if

604
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:04,360
Speaker 1: Bult can hold the line from those elite guys anymore.

605
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,200
Speaker 1: There might be a big change of guard coming again.

606
00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: We'll see on Saturday, but if it does, it feels

607
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:11,240
Speaker 1: like a guy like Lopez, a guy like Aaron Pico,

608
00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: And I'm kind of forecasting here with a little bit

609
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,200
Speaker 1: of you know, we'll see what happens, but young guys

610
00:27:15,240 --> 00:27:18,399
Speaker 1: coming and building a charge up the of the contententship queue.

611
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,320
Speaker 1: This is what you want out of the division. This

612
00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 1: is why one seventies young guns are making that division.

613
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,280
Speaker 2: So final point on Pico. Do you think moving to

614
00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:28,400
Speaker 2: New Mexico and acquiring that horse with the Safreddi like dong.

615
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:31,360
Speaker 1: That that horse's dong is the size of Saturn's ring. Yeah,

616
00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,400
Speaker 1: I mean, it's unbelievable.

617
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:35,160
Speaker 2: Turning point in the Pico experience.

618
00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:38,560
Speaker 1: You could take. You could take kids at the playground and.

619
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 2: Terrific.

620
00:27:40,600 --> 00:27:44,399
Speaker 1: You even seen this horse's dongh like I know reputationally horses,

621
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 1: this horse, this horse is the Rocco Saffreddi of horses.

622
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 2: I'm not VC.

623
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,760
Speaker 4: I don't go Instagram searching on animals.

624
00:27:51,920 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 1: Well, let me just tell you if you're looking for

625
00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 1: the Lexi Impaler of horses.

626
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,159
Speaker 2: To Aaron Pico in New Mexico right there? Uh, what

627
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,600
Speaker 2: else we got with this matchup? What? What? What are

628
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:04,120
Speaker 2: some X factors in this that could change it? Obviously

629
00:28:04,119 --> 00:28:06,119
Speaker 2: if Volksgen isn't there that could change it?

630
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:06,680
Speaker 3: What is?

631
00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:08,560
Speaker 2: There are the things we're not thinking about it?

632
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 1: I was thinking about this. You know, you were saying,

633
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:12,120
Speaker 1: who does the UFC want to win, and the answer

634
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,679
Speaker 1: is probably Lopez probably, But at the same time, I

635
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,840
Speaker 1: don't think this win is an It's enough to get

636
00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:21,160
Speaker 1: a big main event in Mexico.

637
00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:23,040
Speaker 2: Yes, against the air pipple winner.

638
00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: Maybe could be again again. We'll have to see and

639
00:28:25,200 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that in a minute. But I don't

640
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:29,239
Speaker 1: think it's gonna result. You need a this is this

641
00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,480
Speaker 1: is what I talked about. What was missing? You need

642
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,440
Speaker 1: Like if aspinall is to become a big star in

643
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,320
Speaker 1: the UFC, he needs that fight against Jones. Right, we

644
00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:39,480
Speaker 1: are missing that. Vulk doesn't have quite that star power.

645
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:41,160
Speaker 1: He was kind of building towards that and then it

646
00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:43,640
Speaker 1: all went bad against fifty five and then against a Poia.

647
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,440
Speaker 1: But that's the only thing that's missing to me. Is

648
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:47,959
Speaker 1: as good as this win might be for Lopez as

649
00:28:48,000 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 1: you smirk and I know you've got some idea, some

650
00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,840
Speaker 1: joke in the chamber ready to fire, I just feel

651
00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: like that part won't. It won't set him up like

652
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,800
Speaker 1: all of a sudden. He's a huge star. It's gonna

653
00:28:57,840 --> 00:28:58,840
Speaker 1: take some time. If he wins.

654
00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:00,240
Speaker 2: Jed, you were Gonnath.

655
00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:05,440
Speaker 4: If Lopez wins, are we sure ily is at lightweight

656
00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:08,320
Speaker 4: because Ili is saying I'm getting a title fight. I

657
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,640
Speaker 4: know you guys are both very and you in particular

658
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 4: must see it. I mean when thet fighters in the

659
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,560
Speaker 4: world face off. Yeahlmark Chev has been pretty clear like

660
00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:16,480
Speaker 4: I'm not doing this.

661
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 2: We'll see who wins this battle.

662
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 4: But like if if suddenly Diego Lopez wins, I can

663
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:23,800
Speaker 4: understand Illa being like, what do I get from beating

664
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,640
Speaker 4: Volkanovsky a second time? Because he does it all risk,

665
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,800
Speaker 4: minimal upside. Even if I think the risk is like minor,

666
00:29:29,840 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 4: I think he's gonna win that fight. Diego Lopez wins.

667
00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 4: Suddenly there's a legitimate question whether Taporia was ever the

668
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 4: best featherweight because Diego Lopez, he didn't beat Diego Lopez.

669
00:29:38,000 --> 00:29:40,360
Speaker 4: He beat the two best featherweights, and I would say

670
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,720
Speaker 4: he was the best featherweight certainly. But like, here's a

671
00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:45,600
Speaker 4: guy who you didn't beat, who just beat Volkanovsky.

672
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: Let's say he even does it more impressively, knocks him

673
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:48,680
Speaker 2: ot in the first round.

674
00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:50,680
Speaker 1: Also to that point you raise, you go back to

675
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,600
Speaker 1: the judge of scorecards, to Poria lost the three.

676
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:58,000
Speaker 2: Suddenly to Poria is sitting up there like, Okay, here's

677
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 2: somebody new fact that Max though kind which is sick,

678
00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:03,320
Speaker 2: like it's awesome. I'm not taking this away, but if

679
00:30:03,360 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 2: it's hey, I can either fight Diego Lopez and that

680
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 2: will do something for him like you do Tuporia freaking

681
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 2: Diego Lopez and Guadalajara. Like all right, I mean, isn't

682
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,320
Speaker 2: the central theme of this that Tporia doesn't want to

683
00:30:16,360 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 2: keep trying to make that weight cut?

684
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 1: Yes, it's the he claims it's the weight cut, which

685
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,640
Speaker 1: I'm somewhat skeptical of. But if it's true, then what,

686
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 1: I don't know what you're supposed to say about it.

687
00:30:23,040 --> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 2: I hope he does another like thank you card to

688
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 2: himself at some point, you know.

689
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 1: Just I don't know why you. I mean, dude, what

690
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:33,320
Speaker 1: what fighter's personality do you like besides.

691
00:30:33,000 --> 00:30:38,840
Speaker 2: Besides Bryce Mitchell, Thank you, thank you, thank you.

692
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:41,800
Speaker 1: It's like, I'm not in this because I want to like,

693
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:43,680
Speaker 1: have you know, oh what do they what? What are

694
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:47,400
Speaker 1: their favorite colors and movies? Like that's kind of fun,

695
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: but what are the fuss?

696
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:49,960
Speaker 2: Dudes? We get it.

697
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, when the door closes, who's shirtless? That's also the

698
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 1: only question I care about Blahovich.

699
00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 2: I like that attitude except for the whole like weird

700
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 2: hanging rope thing that hangs on too, But that's.

701
00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:04,080
Speaker 1: It's a little morbid, Yeah, a little morbid, but this.

702
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:05,400
Speaker 2: Is MMA for yeah.

703
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,400
Speaker 1: Oh wow, he fights in the cage for his money.

704
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,000
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta cut some slack.

705
00:31:08,840 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 2: All right? As I pour myself and maybe you guys

706
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 2: here on that level, a second shot of this fantastic

707
00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 2: quaerevolanco second shot, I would, I would, speaking of being

708
00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 2: a man, I'd like to hear some predictions here on

709
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:21,400
Speaker 2: this main event from all four of us. I'd like

710
00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 2: to find out who will I want to go along? Why,

711
00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 2: let's go over to the betting man himself, the least,

712
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,480
Speaker 2: the most sober and theory of us. But do you

713
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 2: really believe that? Hey, Long Island, Look, who do you

714
00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:32,160
Speaker 2: gotten this main event?

715
00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 1: Why?

716
00:31:33,400 --> 00:31:37,440
Speaker 5: I'm gonna go Vulcan by decision. I'm not betting on it,

717
00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 5: full disclosure.

718
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,520
Speaker 1: But I how are you betting on it?

719
00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:42,480
Speaker 5: I'm taking the over two and a half in a parlay.

720
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,240
Speaker 1: Okay, I buy that?

721
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 5: Yeah, Like, I think it goes at least three rounds,

722
00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 5: maybe a late finish from either guy. I don't have

723
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,320
Speaker 5: full belief in Volke, but I'm riding with him. I'm

724
00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 5: taking Vulc by decision.

725
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,360
Speaker 2: I mean, what what Vulk's trying to do rarely ever happens.

726
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,120
Speaker 2: Chevchenko did it in the trilogy against Grosso, but it's

727
00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:01,680
Speaker 2: women's mma. Whar It's not the same level of depth,

728
00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 2: and Grosso like got worse Surgic and also Shift Chankles

729
00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 2: an all time great, but so is Vulk. But this

730
00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,800
Speaker 2: is a is a tall hill to climb, even if

731
00:32:12,840 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 2: Lopez is less skilled. Dude, I've got to take Lopez

732
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,520
Speaker 2: my stoppage hair the younger hunger dude. The thing about it,

733
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,560
Speaker 2: young legs is one thing. Power is one thing. He's

734
00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 2: got both, but he's got hunger. He's got hunger to

735
00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,400
Speaker 2: get above that that that line between the one percent

736
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,840
Speaker 2: of UFC and everyone else, to get that real money.

737
00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,800
Speaker 2: Did you see embedded where they showed Volt's house on

738
00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:34,360
Speaker 2: a hill in Australia with the with the animals and

739
00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 2: everything like that. That's the damn promised land right there.

740
00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 2: Lopez is on the rise to that. That hunger is

741
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:42,680
Speaker 2: hard to be.

742
00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: Let me ask the question, please. Bernard Hopkins before he

743
00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:48,560
Speaker 1: ever won titles late into his run, was he ever

744
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:50,520
Speaker 1: stretched like hardcore?

745
00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:52,400
Speaker 2: Like? No, he had a great chin and it was

746
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:53,520
Speaker 2: defensively so sound.

747
00:32:53,600 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: He got was quite plausible. Other than the age being

748
00:32:59,160 --> 00:32:59,920
Speaker 1: a limiting factor.

749
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:02,480
Speaker 2: Well, the only thing that's still hard to comprehend is

750
00:33:02,520 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 2: how he was like outslicking super middleweights and light heavyweights

751
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,120
Speaker 2: deep into his forties. He wasn't overpowering them and knocking out.

752
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:11,560
Speaker 2: He was like dodging punches and using his.

753
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 1: Brain and usion was insane.

754
00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:14,959
Speaker 2: He also was ahead of the game on nutrition all

755
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 2: of that. But yeah, he didn't get he didn't have

756
00:33:16,640 --> 00:33:18,120
Speaker 2: the devastating knockout losses.

757
00:33:18,360 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 1: There's somebody you can think of who was really good,

758
00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:22,240
Speaker 1: had some bad losses, maybe even moving up in weight,

759
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:23,680
Speaker 1: and then had to come back and win a title.

760
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:25,400
Speaker 2: I mean George Foreman, but he also took off ten

761
00:33:25,480 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 2: years in between that and had thirty fights before. I mean,

762
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:30,239
Speaker 2: that's that's a complete outlier. But like it's I mean,

763
00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:32,880
Speaker 2: Randy Coutur would reinvent himself, but when you're reinventing yourself

764
00:33:32,920 --> 00:33:36,040
Speaker 2: against Tim Silvia, yeah he gets limited skill heavyweights, you're

765
00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:37,440
Speaker 2: gonna have combined limited skill.

766
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:39,040
Speaker 1: He did it, but he only won an interim title

767
00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:39,800
Speaker 1: doing I'm.

768
00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:42,080
Speaker 2: I just that fact alone. Even though Vulk is great,

769
00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:43,320
Speaker 2: even though IM sure he's gonna have the best game

770
00:33:43,320 --> 00:33:46,239
Speaker 2: plan ever, make the best adjustments here. Inevitably, he's going

771
00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:47,800
Speaker 2: to get rocked by a hook, I think, and it

772
00:33:47,840 --> 00:33:50,440
Speaker 2: could lead to his exit. So money where the mouth is,

773
00:33:50,480 --> 00:33:54,080
Speaker 2: I'm going Lopez by stoppage in the early fourth round.

774
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna take Folk. I won't be at all

775
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:00,680
Speaker 4: surprised if I'm wrong. I spent the last like month

776
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,800
Speaker 4: every time talking about this. When we were on Submission radio,

777
00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 4: I was like, I'm pretty sure dieg Olopas is gonna

778
00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 4: hit him and he's gonna fall over because he's old

779
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 4: man now and di olops is a big, big, big

780
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:10,759
Speaker 4: strong man and he hits real hard. And then I

781
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:14,879
Speaker 4: watched a bunch and I just watching the Tapuria fight back,

782
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:19,719
Speaker 4: Volk looks so tentative from the opening bell, like just

783
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,520
Speaker 4: immediately he does not want to get hit, and I

784
00:34:23,560 --> 00:34:25,560
Speaker 4: can't help but think that there is some lingering to

785
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:29,280
Speaker 4: the previous knockout. Taking a long time off is Jenny

786
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,719
Speaker 4: has been dropped multiple times, as I'm dropped him in

787
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,400
Speaker 4: the first fight, even like that that is the thing

788
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:39,560
Speaker 4: that's happened. But he's historically been very durable until this run,

789
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,359
Speaker 4: and Diego Lopez is not the same kind of hitter

790
00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:44,960
Speaker 4: as Toapuri, he doesn't deliver in the same way.

791
00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,160
Speaker 2: The same delivery system.

792
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he is too rote. If it happens,

793
00:34:48,400 --> 00:34:50,000
Speaker 4: I think it will be in the clinch. As Luke

794
00:34:50,080 --> 00:34:52,080
Speaker 4: was pointing out, like Diego, Lopez just kind of bombs

795
00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:53,400
Speaker 4: on you when you get in tight.

796
00:34:53,320 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 2: Blanco Blanco, I'm going decision, all right, Luke, you're the

797
00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:58,840
Speaker 2: last one to put your money where your mind.

798
00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:03,120
Speaker 1: Give me Lopez by stopping. I think inside three, inside three.

799
00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:03,799
Speaker 3: Wow.

800
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,480
Speaker 1: I hate to say that and do nothing inside.

801
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:09,160
Speaker 2: Three to your boy. See, but is do you consider

802
00:35:09,239 --> 00:35:11,279
Speaker 2: Volca's boy you know the history of Luke Thomas's love

803
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:13,719
Speaker 2: affairs or has he really taken all the c KB

804
00:35:13,880 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 2: toys and put him back in the bin now that

805
00:35:16,000 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 2: this uh, I don't think of Volcans like well that

806
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:19,839
Speaker 2: this German George and Spaniard guy.

807
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:22,359
Speaker 1: Here's what's so amazing with these losers that we're talking

808
00:35:22,360 --> 00:35:23,640
Speaker 1: to right now, the.

809
00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 2: Kind of people that follow I get that debate. If

810
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 2: Ian Gary does live with his wife sex husband.

811
00:35:31,360 --> 00:35:33,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't care. Well, so that's a different kind

812
00:35:33,080 --> 00:35:35,480
Speaker 1: of loser. But in this particular case, what ends up

813
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 1: happening is I discover someone is good earlier than the

814
00:35:38,640 --> 00:35:41,000
Speaker 1: rest of them, and they throw out a sign and

815
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:42,600
Speaker 1: then they make fun of me on the front end,

816
00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:44,000
Speaker 1: like all this guy's really good and they're like, no,

817
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,799
Speaker 1: he's not. I'm like, no, he's really fucking good, And

818
00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,120
Speaker 1: sure enough he ends up being really good. Then these

819
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:51,480
Speaker 1: idiots get on board, and then their decline becomes quite obvious,

820
00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:53,359
Speaker 1: and I'm like, all right, well the end is near,

821
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:55,200
Speaker 1: you know. And then they're like no, so Luke Scott,

822
00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,000
Speaker 1: what they'll do is a big no, keeps going, And

823
00:35:58,040 --> 00:35:59,960
Speaker 1: of course it doesn't keep going. They start fucking loo

824
00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I am the one who got the

825
00:36:02,719 --> 00:36:04,600
Speaker 1: bracketed at the beginning and the end of what made

826
00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,600
Speaker 1: them good? Correct? You idiots are the ones that were

827
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:08,399
Speaker 1: late to both.

828
00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 2: Ever since you missed the Osbourne training Marines, you've been

829
00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:14,160
Speaker 2: turning tomp on next one coming down the tracks every time.

830
00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,360
Speaker 2: All right, yeah, hey, put the camera on there. I

831
00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:18,600
Speaker 2: got something to say right here. Okay, hey, are you

860
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 2: for that little aside. It is time, though, to transition

861
00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 2: into this fantastic cole main event. Five rounds by the

862
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,400
Speaker 2: way in the lightweight division, as thirty eight year old

863
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:01,360
Speaker 2: Michael Chandler, who has It's true, has lost four of

864
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:04,920
Speaker 2: his last five, but goes for broke against only elites

865
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,279
Speaker 2: and typically comes that short. He's going to welcome a

866
00:38:08,280 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 2: Patty Pimblet, who, if he's gonna make that star turn

867
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,640
Speaker 2: it is now or never. Pimblet unbeaten in the UFC

868
00:38:14,840 --> 00:38:18,160
Speaker 2: on a run, but hasn't beaten outside of an old

869
00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,799
Speaker 2: Tony Ferguson, outside of an old King Green. Anyone really

870
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,120
Speaker 2: still on thirty eight year old Chandler's level. That's a

871
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,959
Speaker 2: big part about why this matchup matters so much, Luke.

872
00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,120
Speaker 2: When you look at this matchup on paper, Chandler Pimblet,

873
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 2: what's the what's the sexiest element of this to you?

874
00:38:35,320 --> 00:38:39,240
Speaker 1: Changing of the guard potentially or not Chandler who punted

875
00:38:39,239 --> 00:38:43,040
Speaker 1: two years of his career waiting for MMA's biggest fuck up.

876
00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 1: Apparently Well, actually, now there's there's debate about that one.

877
00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:47,759
Speaker 1: I mean that I don't know if that's quite conclusive. Yeah,

878
00:38:47,840 --> 00:38:51,000
Speaker 1: not conclusive, but certainly one of them. Uh But anyway,

879
00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 1: punts away two years of his career and it gets

880
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:56,360
Speaker 1: to gets to UFC late thirty four years of age,

881
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,239
Speaker 1: and was very clear now here for a long time,

882
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,399
Speaker 1: here for a good time. He has made. By the way,

883
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,279
Speaker 1: he'll be thirty nine at the end of this month

884
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 1: April twenty fourth, so he's almost at forty at one

885
00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:07,640
Speaker 1: to fifty five, and he's still trying to accomplish something

886
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:09,560
Speaker 1: that has kind of eluded him in part by you know,

887
00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 1: his own fault.

888
00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,919
Speaker 2: Is he's trying to accomplish. I think he's just trying

889
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,280
Speaker 2: to make fun ass action fights into that's.

890
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:16,160
Speaker 1: Always his modus eparandi. But I still think that like

891
00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:18,839
Speaker 1: another title fight is something he actually really is like

892
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 1: looking for, whereas in the case of Patty Pimblet, I'll

893
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 1: be honest, about Patty, Dude. I this is a guy

894
00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:26,439
Speaker 1: who I'm still not fully sold on him. His chin

895
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:28,640
Speaker 1: is still doing one of these numbers, and someone's just

896
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:30,640
Speaker 1: gonna fucking drill it eventually one of these days.

897
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,560
Speaker 2: He didn't get on the Patty train early. No, are

898
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,560
Speaker 2: you saying Sorenbach is not coming through that curtain, sorbox.

899
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:38,880
Speaker 1: Sornbach is not a bad fighter for a time, but

900
00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 1: I've not been a believer in him. But the truth is,

901
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:43,759
Speaker 1: a couple things have happened. One he's gotten a lot better. Two,

902
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:45,960
Speaker 1: he's physically filled out at fifty five in a way

903
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 1: that I didn't actually expect. And three, like, you know,

904
00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:51,400
Speaker 1: the things he was good at, he's gotten actually like

905
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:54,320
Speaker 1: really good at his back taking and then back maintenance

906
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: positions are excellent. Like he's really really fucking good at it.

907
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:01,960
Speaker 1: He's good from gaul. Now he kind of gases, And

908
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:04,520
Speaker 1: he's never fought a guy who I think can deliver

909
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,799
Speaker 1: power as quickly as Chandler can, and who's this battle

910
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 1: tested as Chandler by no stretch of I don't think

911
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,799
Speaker 1: anybody's even close. But like this generational battle, this old

912
00:40:13,880 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 1: line kind of hanging on waiting for that last opportunity

913
00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:18,560
Speaker 1: and this guy who I never really took all that

914
00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:21,080
Speaker 1: seriously and still have some questions about. Hence the fight

915
00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,919
Speaker 1: being interesting. They're gonna clash right at this moment. Both

916
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,480
Speaker 1: of them are I think, risk takers to a degree.

917
00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: Both of them are wild and somewhat undisciplined. It just

918
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:30,600
Speaker 1: has action written.

919
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 2: I can't wait card, this is the thing I need

920
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:35,759
Speaker 2: to see the most. How much though, Jed and we'll

921
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 2: get into cheating Chandler and a second your favorite fighter

922
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 2: in the world, But how much stock are you going

923
00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:43,080
Speaker 2: to put into the pictures that we showed on Monday's

924
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,759
Speaker 2: MK of Patty having like ridiculous abs, the fact that

925
00:40:46,840 --> 00:40:48,880
Speaker 2: embedded he comes out and says, look, I got twins.

926
00:40:48,920 --> 00:40:52,320
Speaker 2: Now I'm a dad. I am taking fitness and training

927
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,440
Speaker 2: on a different level of seriousness. I used to rely

928
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 2: on my talent more than my hard work. Well, now

929
00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 2: obviously you're gonna go five rounds against a wild man

930
00:41:00,080 --> 00:41:02,600
Speaker 2: like Chandler, you better up that hard work and have

931
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,800
Speaker 2: that gas tank. When you combine that with the corners

932
00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 2: that he did look to turn against King Green, for

933
00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 2: whatever that matchup is worth. How confident are you in

934
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:13,880
Speaker 2: the stock of Patty pimblet entering this and can we

935
00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,040
Speaker 2: believe that becoming a dad and becoming serious could elevate

936
00:41:17,080 --> 00:41:18,200
Speaker 2: his game to a new level.

937
00:41:18,280 --> 00:41:22,200
Speaker 4: Bit So I think you can, because that's being an adult.

938
00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 4: Like we all grow up and less you're Brian Campbell,

939
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:24,799
Speaker 4: then you don't.

940
00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,399
Speaker 2: And that's okay. That's why we love you. We love

941
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:28,520
Speaker 2: you for not growing up.

942
00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:31,520
Speaker 4: But like you have kids, you get thirty, you oh shit,

943
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:32,799
Speaker 4: my time is running out.

944
00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,960
Speaker 2: I need to do things for me. I decided to

945
00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:36,960
Speaker 2: come and be with you. Jackie. You should probably in

946
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:39,840
Speaker 2: this world, even by accident, right, I.

947
00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:46,120
Speaker 1: Mean, he should definitely get you.

948
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 2: This would be much better. Take your manhood from me,

949
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 2: I'm telling you.

950
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:53,680
Speaker 4: But like, yeah, he's gonna get better because that's just

951
00:41:53,719 --> 00:41:54,360
Speaker 4: being an adult.

952
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:55,600
Speaker 2: That's that's maturing.

953
00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,040
Speaker 4: I'm much more like that means way less to me

954
00:41:59,120 --> 00:42:01,400
Speaker 4: than like what I've seen, and I have seen, like

955
00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:04,080
Speaker 4: Luke said, I was a huge Patty's pad.

956
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,879
Speaker 2: He's a hitter guy. Let me guess the experience. Yeah,

957
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 2: I was like, oh, he's a blaming her. No, because

958
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:12,760
Speaker 2: around the cage with Portnoy, like she's the world champion.

959
00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,120
Speaker 1: It's like you know, they were putting wigs on like

960
00:42:15,120 --> 00:42:17,000
Speaker 1: they were on that Patty train where there was any

961
00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 1: evidence they should have been.

962
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,000
Speaker 2: But I honestly thought that he was going to be

963
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:23,080
Speaker 2: like mollyple, like a decent enough fighter, you know, maybe

964
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,480
Speaker 2: get you ranked and then just he'll be more popular

965
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,400
Speaker 2: than he's talented. But one the UFC brought him along

966
00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:28,919
Speaker 2: really well.

967
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:32,160
Speaker 4: They gave him winnable matchups. He kept winning them. He

968
00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:33,520
Speaker 4: did mature and get better.

969
00:42:33,719 --> 00:42:35,279
Speaker 2: I think he beat Jared Gordon, that's what you're saying.

970
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:37,440
Speaker 2: I do not think he beat Jared Gordon, but he

971
00:42:38,000 --> 00:42:44,480
Speaker 2: be technically. He can't put that back up there. I

972
00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 2: I've never been mad at one of these cons until

973
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:48,240
Speaker 2: that bullshit.

974
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 1: That's bad who wrote that?

975
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,920
Speaker 5: I just want to say, they're not me.

976
00:42:56,080 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 2: Jed all right, I see how it is. You don't

977
00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,680
Speaker 2: have to put it up there. I don't even know

978
00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 2: what I was saying.

979
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,560
Speaker 4: I take much more on the fact of what I've

980
00:43:05,600 --> 00:43:08,000
Speaker 4: seen that the proof is in my eyes of seeing

981
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:11,319
Speaker 4: him every time out be better and like Luke said,

982
00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,280
Speaker 4: like he's just getting better at fighting.

983
00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:16,360
Speaker 2: He does look looks real good right now, like looks

984
00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:17,520
Speaker 2: good getting off the bus.

985
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:18,360
Speaker 3: He I.

986
00:43:20,160 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 2: You know, I'm picking him with confidence this weekend. I mean, look,

987
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 2: and it's also because I hate Michael Chandler and think

988
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 2: he sucks so well, there is a path.

989
00:43:27,480 --> 00:43:29,320
Speaker 1: I don't hate Michael Chandler, nor do I think why

990
00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:30,640
Speaker 1: do you think he sucks? It doesn't suck.

991
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:32,360
Speaker 4: I mean, he doesn't suck as a fighter, but he

992
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,720
Speaker 4: sucks like you know that he sucks.

993
00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:35,960
Speaker 2: He's too alpha for you.

994
00:43:36,640 --> 00:43:39,239
Speaker 4: Michael Chandler is a fighter that by all accounts I

995
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:42,120
Speaker 4: should love because he's very silly. He cheats, and his

996
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 4: game is nothing but exciting, kind of stupid stuff. And

997
00:43:44,960 --> 00:43:49,040
Speaker 4: for some reason he's all like, he's all the things

998
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,400
Speaker 4: that I usually love in a fighter, and for whatever

999
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,920
Speaker 4: reason doesn't connect.

1000
00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:58,680
Speaker 2: I just hate him so much. We talked about this before.

1001
00:43:58,719 --> 00:44:00,960
Speaker 2: There's a path to Patty Pilba to the title without

1002
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 2: having to go through too many or maybe even a

1003
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,239
Speaker 2: single like super elite young guy. They're actually kind of

1004
00:44:06,239 --> 00:44:08,520
Speaker 2: smart matching him against action guys on the way down.

1005
00:44:08,920 --> 00:44:11,640
Speaker 2: That notwithstanding, Luke, when you talked about the two year

1006
00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 2: gap that Chandler set out waiting for Connor, is there

1007
00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:16,759
Speaker 2: like a feeling that no one's talking about that maybe

1008
00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:20,440
Speaker 2: that revived him or extended him in that. Yeah, he's

1009
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,640
Speaker 2: lost four or five, but it's always against super Lead

1010
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,080
Speaker 2: twice against OLIVERA. Like. You know, he's been in title

1011
00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:28,760
Speaker 2: fights and he comes close with that recklessness and that danger.

1012
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,680
Speaker 2: I know lately he's not coming as close. And don't

1013
00:44:31,680 --> 00:44:33,640
Speaker 2: forget the cheating Chad is a big part of it.

1014
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,960
Speaker 2: Should we are we sleeping on Chandler, I guess is

1015
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:38,680
Speaker 2: what I'm trying to say, coming into this matchup and

1016
00:44:38,719 --> 00:44:42,440
Speaker 2: focusing it too much on Patty already already paving the

1017
00:44:42,520 --> 00:44:44,040
Speaker 2: road that leads him to a title shot.

1018
00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:46,000
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody is sleeping on Chandler. I think

1019
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:48,840
Speaker 1: people are you know, even if they don't like Chandler,

1020
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:52,400
Speaker 1: they're still pretty respectful the fact that he is powerful,

1021
00:44:53,120 --> 00:44:55,799
Speaker 1: he is athletic, and at thirty eight still pretty quick.

1022
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:58,760
Speaker 1: You're relatively speaking, he can certainly wrestle better than Patty.

1023
00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 1: Whether that will be useful for him, I don't know.

1024
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,719
Speaker 1: That's kind of a hard part. And he's useful as

1025
00:45:04,760 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 1: an opponent for Patty right he represents certain things that

1026
00:45:08,200 --> 00:45:10,680
Speaker 1: if Patty would to beat him, this would mean something

1027
00:45:10,719 --> 00:45:12,279
Speaker 1: that you could be like, wow, that's actually a really

1028
00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,279
Speaker 1: interesting win that he got so for that reason, I'm

1029
00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,040
Speaker 1: actually like quite excited about it. But I don't think

1030
00:45:16,080 --> 00:45:20,080
Speaker 1: anyone's like, I don't think there's anybody who's got, you know,

1031
00:45:20,360 --> 00:45:24,200
Speaker 1: rose colored glasses on about Chandler's abilities or upsides or

1032
00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 1: for that matter, his limits. His limits are fucking well known,

1033
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:29,760
Speaker 1: you know. And the two years off that you mentioned,

1034
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:32,160
Speaker 1: I mean, it probably was good for him in the

1035
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,560
Speaker 1: sense of any nagging injuries. You know, it's not that's

1036
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:37,759
Speaker 1: two years we're not taking at least well in the gym,

1037
00:45:37,760 --> 00:45:39,920
Speaker 1: who knows, but certainly in the cage, no head trauma.

1038
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,680
Speaker 1: You know that there's probably a rejuvenation for that. But dude,

1039
00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:46,799
Speaker 1: two years is too long. A year is long enough,

1040
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,800
Speaker 1: a year a year alone is too.

1041
00:45:48,640 --> 00:45:50,959
Speaker 2: Long, really long. At thirty six, it's so long.

1042
00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:53,440
Speaker 1: It's so fucking long. Now again against Charles Olivery, how

1043
00:45:53,440 --> 00:45:56,040
Speaker 1: did he look well? He rallied late and that was

1044
00:45:56,080 --> 00:45:56,680
Speaker 1: pretty cool.

1045
00:45:56,719 --> 00:45:58,440
Speaker 2: But as Jed told me off camera, that was kind

1046
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,759
Speaker 2: of a Nate Daz saving your name, aaint Leon Edwards

1047
00:46:01,120 --> 00:46:05,239
Speaker 2: rally cheating. Okay, if I just cheat the ship something,

1048
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:07,480
Speaker 2: I can look good too. He looks so bad in

1049
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:07,879
Speaker 2: that fight.

1050
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:10,000
Speaker 1: He looked bad early. He certainly did he certainly did.

1051
00:46:10,080 --> 00:46:12,040
Speaker 1: He just showed well, what can I say? How about

1052
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:15,439
Speaker 1: this spirit? He showed a little bit of competitive spirit late.

1053
00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:18,200
Speaker 4: I will never say that he's a quitter, because he'll

1054
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,279
Speaker 4: go out there and try try.

1055
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,040
Speaker 1: Also, also, I just gotta say this. In a fucking

1056
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,000
Speaker 1: sport where the referees like, don't you I gouge the

1057
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,399
Speaker 1: second eyeball out and then you gouge the second eyeball out,

1058
00:46:29,440 --> 00:46:31,799
Speaker 1: don't you cut their tongue out? Why the fuck would

1059
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 1: you not cheat? Why the fuck would you not him?

1060
00:46:36,160 --> 00:46:38,799
Speaker 1: Why not cheat? So to me, it's like, I don't

1061
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 1: think anyone is like presenting Chandler as something other than

1062
00:46:42,040 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: what he is. But what the good side of what

1063
00:46:44,360 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: he can do is still formidable enough.

1064
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 2: All Right, we got to consummate this matchup so it

1065
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:49,799
Speaker 2: don't run at the time long. I look, do you

1066
00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 2: have an updated draft kings uh odds? Cheat on this

1067
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:54,200
Speaker 2: one please?

1068
00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:57,560
Speaker 5: We got plus one twenty four for Chandler minus one.

1069
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,640
Speaker 2: Pat Okay, this will be five rounds guy and not three,

1070
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,239
Speaker 2: so that may change our pick here, Jed, where are

1071
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:04,399
Speaker 2: you going with this? Comin event?

1072
00:47:04,440 --> 00:47:06,400
Speaker 4: Alright, he told you I'm picking Patty. I think he

1073
00:47:06,960 --> 00:47:09,839
Speaker 4: probably finishes Chandler because when Michael Chandler.

1074
00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:14,240
Speaker 2: Loses, he he likes to get finished. Maybe because Patty

1075
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,520
Speaker 2: is as to Luke's point, Patty has become very good

1076
00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:17,440
Speaker 2: at taking the back holding.

1077
00:47:17,520 --> 00:47:19,919
Speaker 4: We saw Charles have that position for a very long time.

1078
00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:22,320
Speaker 4: Maybe he can't finish because Charles is Charles and Michael

1079
00:47:22,360 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 4: Chandler didn't allow him. But do you think he's gonna win?

1080
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,799
Speaker 4: And I've been waiting to drop this one? This fight,

1081
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:33,680
Speaker 4: this fight, it's it is the Iliad to Puria Derby.

1082
00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:35,960
Speaker 4: The winner of this fight is going to be the

1083
00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:37,760
Speaker 4: guy who welcomes Ilio to Puria to lightweight.

1084
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:42,200
Speaker 2: I am. I have talked myself in Bronx not the

1085
00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,320
Speaker 2: chap because if you're to Pouria, if Patty gets this,

1086
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:46,600
Speaker 2: when he's a top five dude, you've got the storyline.

1087
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:51,400
Speaker 2: Put him, I think, because if Patty somehow beats Ilia

1088
00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:54,160
Speaker 2: ready made title challenge, you get Patty Pimble, they give

1089
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:56,080
Speaker 2: they give him another old guy. You know they would

1090
00:47:56,080 --> 00:47:58,920
Speaker 2: the Iliad. The Iliad juice is there and it's a

1091
00:47:58,960 --> 00:48:01,200
Speaker 2: no lose situation share when one has the belt, and

1092
00:48:01,239 --> 00:48:01,960
Speaker 2: you know that's true.

1093
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:04,320
Speaker 4: But the concern is if you make illea fight Charles,

1094
00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,759
Speaker 4: Charles might fuck around and beat him because Charles is

1095
00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:09,480
Speaker 4: really goddamn you don't Charles in the Pattie won't beat

1096
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 4: him like.

1097
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:15,000
Speaker 2: Probably a gamerad. And then if he wins, this is

1098
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:17,680
Speaker 2: this is the illiot to Poria Derby. The winner should

1099
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,239
Speaker 2: call out. I will call out and will get him.

1100
00:48:22,200 --> 00:48:24,919
Speaker 1: That's last thing. I don't think it's necessarily fair, because

1101
00:48:24,960 --> 00:48:27,839
Speaker 1: I do think Patty has improved in a legitimate way.

1102
00:48:28,080 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 1: But if he goes in there and gets his chin

1103
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:32,080
Speaker 1: setting to the fucking into orbit, people are going to

1104
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:33,960
Speaker 1: be like, oh right, that that guy who we've been

1105
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:37,520
Speaker 1: thinking was a fraud this whole time. It finally revealed themselves.

1106
00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:39,879
Speaker 1: Not saying that's fair, but if he gets beaten that way,

1107
00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,200
Speaker 1: it's absolutely going to be the narrative post fight.

1108
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,520
Speaker 2: Patty did say leading into this fight that he's not

1109
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:46,279
Speaker 2: going to be like the other people who fell into

1110
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 2: Chandler's trap, got into a crazy, bloody brawl, allowed Chandler

1111
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:52,160
Speaker 2: to cheat. He's going to carry out his game plan.

1112
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,719
Speaker 2: I don't know if he can do that, but I

1113
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:55,720
Speaker 2: think he'll be in shape where he's not gonna fold.

1114
00:48:55,760 --> 00:48:57,680
Speaker 2: I think Chandler's age will show a little bit. I

1115
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,360
Speaker 2: think Patty can sub him and it will be obviously

1116
00:48:59,400 --> 00:49:02,160
Speaker 2: the biggest victory Patty's career and catapulted him into true

1117
00:49:02,200 --> 00:49:03,799
Speaker 2: title contention. Does Patty get it done, Luke?

1118
00:49:03,840 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 1: I think he does. I think he does. Now. I

1119
00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,200
Speaker 1: do have concerns about him gassing, because while he does

1120
00:49:08,239 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 1: look big, he he gassed like a motherfucker even against

1121
00:49:11,520 --> 00:49:14,480
Speaker 1: Tony fucking Ferguson. And if I'm Michael Chandler, I'll find

1122
00:49:14,520 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 1: ways to make him work, just just make him labor.

1123
00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:20,560
Speaker 1: But I don't know I've been I've been wrong about Patty.

1124
00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 1: He's definitely been much better than I thought he would be,

1125
00:49:22,719 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: and so I think that that culminates in something here.

1126
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:25,640
Speaker 1: All Right, before we.

1127
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 4: Transition out come just Chandler winning a grindy twenty five minute.

1128
00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,720
Speaker 2: Decisi, hob, no one would be happy. Before we transition

1129
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,720
Speaker 2: into pre meth, Mitchell, let's create our own pick six lineup,

1130
00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 2: brought to you by DraftKings four this weekend. Remember we're

1131
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,719
Speaker 2: talking about fantasy lineup where you're looking at stats like

1132
00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,360
Speaker 2: control time, strikes, things like that. If you get an

1133
00:49:44,400 --> 00:49:47,040
Speaker 2: early stoppage, that's a big point swing. I'm gonna take

1134
00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:48,960
Speaker 2: my first pick here, even though I'm picking him to

1135
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:51,240
Speaker 2: get stopped if he doesn't. If this goes the distance,

1136
00:49:51,440 --> 00:49:54,080
Speaker 2: who's gonna score more points in here than Alexander Volkanowski

1137
00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:56,680
Speaker 2: From that, So I'm going Volkanovski, Luke, who do you got.

1138
00:49:57,360 --> 00:50:01,920
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go Lopez for pick sex. I'm gonna go Lopez,

1139
00:50:01,920 --> 00:50:03,600
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna go Patty. And I think that for

1140
00:50:03,680 --> 00:50:06,160
Speaker 1: the two five round fights, So that could go long.

1141
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,880
Speaker 1: But I think in both cases, in Patty and Lopez,

1142
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,560
Speaker 1: you have somebody who could potentially end at early certainly

1143
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:14,160
Speaker 1: case more so of Lopez, and I think that there's

1144
00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:16,600
Speaker 1: a chance we're talking about accumulated stats. I feel like

1145
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,080
Speaker 1: either guy, if they end up getting from the back

1146
00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:21,759
Speaker 1: for Patty's case or in the case of Lopez, from

1147
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:24,680
Speaker 1: the clinch, could fire out a lot of different strikes,

1148
00:50:24,719 --> 00:50:27,360
Speaker 1: a lot of different labor. Let's say that could add up.

1149
00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:29,040
Speaker 1: So my two pick sixes are the two ones that

1150
00:50:29,080 --> 00:50:31,080
Speaker 1: are gonna pick for this Lopez, Patty Jed.

1151
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:33,120
Speaker 2: Who's going to all perform their stat predictions in your

1152
00:50:33,120 --> 00:50:35,080
Speaker 2: mind game in the system here going for the two

1153
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:38,520
Speaker 2: five round fights. Look at this, guys, it's hard to

1154
00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,320
Speaker 2: play betting games with. He'll always find a way to

1155
00:50:40,320 --> 00:50:42,960
Speaker 2: get around it. Yeah, he knows the game. He's not

1156
00:50:43,040 --> 00:50:46,960
Speaker 2: listening to us about him.

1157
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,200
Speaker 4: I'm going with two fights we haven't talked about yet.

1158
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:53,720
Speaker 4: Give me, Yeah, you're Adriguez going to just kill Patricio Pipple.

1159
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:55,879
Speaker 4: I would like Patricio Pipple do well. It would be

1160
00:50:56,000 --> 00:50:59,600
Speaker 4: much more interesting. I don't he's old than kind.

1161
00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:03,279
Speaker 2: Of wa you'll get some good points. He's fighting Jeremy Kennedy. Year.

1162
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:06,759
Speaker 4: Rodriguez is just a whole different world of a beast here.

1163
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 4: I think, yeah, rodri is gonna have a big day.

1164
00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:12,160
Speaker 4: And I don't really believe this with my chest, but

1165
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:16,960
Speaker 4: I believe this spiritually. Jean Silva is fighting Bryce Mitchell,

1166
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,799
Speaker 4: and if you're rooting for Bryce Mitchell, we're not gonna

1167
00:51:19,800 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 4: be friends. I think Bryce Mitchell's a really good chance

1168
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:24,440
Speaker 4: to perform well. But John Silva has been one of

1169
00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 4: my boys.

1170
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, Jean, don't care.

1171
00:51:27,960 --> 00:51:31,680
Speaker 4: Lord is awesome And like Luke, you know, sometimes I

1172
00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,640
Speaker 4: too can be like Luke Thomas and be ahead of

1173
00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 4: the curve at how good.

1174
00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:37,000
Speaker 2: So you better get permission from his missus on how

1175
00:51:37,000 --> 00:51:38,680
Speaker 2: to pass that before you come into the studio. I'm

1176
00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:40,839
Speaker 2: gonna add Danny Gay to my pick six lineup there

1177
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,360
Speaker 2: against Sean Woodson. I wonder if he can go heavy

1178
00:51:43,360 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 2: strikes a lot of volume there to give you the

1179
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:48,400
Speaker 2: points you're looking for. Interesting stuff right there. And of course,

1180
00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:51,840
Speaker 2: if he didn't know, Pick six presented by DraftKings, DraftKings,

1181
00:51:51,840 --> 00:51:55,080
Speaker 2: the crown is yours. Thank you very much. All right, gentlemen,

1182
00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:56,960
Speaker 2: let's continue on down this card. And obviously there's a

1183
00:51:56,960 --> 00:51:58,760
Speaker 2: lot of fights to talk about, a lot of people

1184
00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,680
Speaker 2: talking about this one. The featherweight matchup Bryce Mitchell, fresh

1185
00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:03,640
Speaker 2: off of the debut of his podcast in the very

1186
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:07,520
Speaker 2: controversial comments about Adolf Hitler that fed into a wild

1187
00:52:07,600 --> 00:52:11,080
Speaker 2: March kickoff press conference between him and his opponent, The

1188
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:14,080
Speaker 2: Fighting Nerds GN Silva, who has won all four of

1189
00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:17,600
Speaker 2: his UFC appearances, all four by stoppage, acts like an

1190
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:22,840
Speaker 2: absolute offensive savage and is a somewhat sizable betting favorite.

1191
00:52:22,880 --> 00:52:24,920
Speaker 2: I think, long isl Look what are we getting here

1192
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:27,280
Speaker 2: for plus money on Bryce Mitchell the wrestler.

1193
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:29,480
Speaker 5: I'll get the updated.

1194
00:52:29,640 --> 00:52:32,200
Speaker 2: It's about two plus two thirty two sixty area.

1195
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:33,640
Speaker 5: Right, it is plus two fifteen.

1196
00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 1: It's come down a little bit.

1197
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:36,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, and minus two sixty five.

1198
00:52:36,480 --> 00:52:38,719
Speaker 2: Luke, I could ask you what we're talking about in

1199
00:52:38,719 --> 00:52:41,360
Speaker 2: this matchup, and everybody will bring up the ridiculousness in

1200
00:52:41,440 --> 00:52:44,720
Speaker 2: the fact that Bryce says Silva can't be called lord

1201
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 2: and Bryce is probably gonna walk in with the Bible.

1202
00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,160
Speaker 2: I mean this, there's a lot of weirdness associated this matchup.

1203
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,280
Speaker 2: But would you not agree that, even if it's shameless

1204
00:52:51,280 --> 00:52:53,759
Speaker 2: from the UFC to exploit that and for Data to

1205
00:52:53,800 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 2: go if you didn't like his hitler comments, you can

1206
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:57,719
Speaker 2: watch them get knocked out in the cage. It's a

1207
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,200
Speaker 2: damn good matchup in terms of what Shawn s be

1208
00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 2: Nick Maynard do to put together the grappler, the experience

1209
00:53:03,280 --> 00:53:08,960
Speaker 2: in Mitchell against that pure reckless power and energy of Silva.

1210
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 2: I'm not wrong here. This is one of the fights

1211
00:53:10,760 --> 00:53:11,560
Speaker 2: you kind of have to see on.

1212
00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 1: I don't think you're wrong about the fight terms itself again,

1213
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:16,279
Speaker 1: whether or not the UFC should be in business and

1214
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:17,640
Speaker 1: whether or not they should make this fight and blah

1215
00:53:17,640 --> 00:53:20,520
Speaker 1: blah blah that they did. We're just asking on fight terms,

1216
00:53:20,520 --> 00:53:22,720
Speaker 1: what are we getting from this? You have grappler versus striker,

1217
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:25,640
Speaker 1: which is interesting. Jayon Silva very good fighter, but like

1218
00:53:25,680 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 1: relative to what Bryce Mitchell can show on the ground,

1219
00:53:28,320 --> 00:53:31,319
Speaker 1: I would say Silva is untested relative to that. At

1220
00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,000
Speaker 1: the same time, if you're Bryce Mitchell, who says increasingly

1221
00:53:35,480 --> 00:53:37,560
Speaker 1: I'm trying to be as nice as I can strange

1222
00:53:37,640 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 1: things in addition to just nice. Yeah, in addition to

1223
00:53:41,400 --> 00:53:45,400
Speaker 1: just the Hitler stuff, beyond that, beyond that, what I

1224
00:53:45,400 --> 00:53:48,360
Speaker 1: would say is, you know, coming back from that Josh

1225
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:52,279
Speaker 1: Emmett nuclear Ko, where's he going to be with that? Like?

1226
00:53:52,280 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 1: What is the story in that particular case. So like

1227
00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,600
Speaker 1: on both sides, you have not Bryce is not untested.

1228
00:53:58,840 --> 00:54:01,240
Speaker 1: He's quite tested, but we've got some of his upside

1229
00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,880
Speaker 1: in some of his known limits. On the other side,

1230
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:08,680
Speaker 1: you know, with John Silva, you're going to against a

1231
00:54:08,760 --> 00:54:10,959
Speaker 1: very creative striker, a guy who can find different ways

1232
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 1: to attack you from different positions, different angles, the whole

1233
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 1: nine yards. Then you get to a point where it's like, oh,

1234
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:19,640
Speaker 1: how are these two going to interact in this? Going

1235
00:54:19,640 --> 00:54:22,240
Speaker 1: to the two previous fights, something of a genuine mystery,

1236
00:54:22,239 --> 00:54:23,640
Speaker 1: Like I'm not exactly sure what the.

1237
00:54:24,080 --> 00:54:26,200
Speaker 2: Tension play in that. And you bring up good points

1238
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:28,440
Speaker 2: about Mitchell at thirty in questioning he's lost two of

1239
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:31,240
Speaker 2: his last four, and those losses are devastating. The submission

1240
00:54:31,239 --> 00:54:34,200
Speaker 2: loss to Supporia where he almost literally got beaten into retirement,

1241
00:54:34,520 --> 00:54:37,239
Speaker 2: and then that massive one punch KO. How much can

1242
00:54:37,239 --> 00:54:38,960
Speaker 2: you give him credit for that crone Gracie win last

1243
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:42,680
Speaker 2: time that? It's tough to tell Gracey Danny Kay. He

1244
00:54:42,719 --> 00:54:45,760
Speaker 2: did score a decision over in between. But the hot money,

1245
00:54:45,960 --> 00:54:48,839
Speaker 2: the hype is on g and Silva twenty eight years old,

1246
00:54:48,960 --> 00:54:52,080
Speaker 2: who's actually running a twelve fight winning streak overall four

1247
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 2: to oh in the UFC. Is Silva worthy of the

1248
00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,680
Speaker 2: odds he's getting the hype he's getting. We've seen many

1249
00:54:57,760 --> 00:54:59,680
Speaker 2: a guy come in and do explosive knockouts, but when

1250
00:54:59,680 --> 00:55:02,640
Speaker 2: they st up to that level of the veteran gatekeeper level,

1251
00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,720
Speaker 2: they get found out. Are you putting stock on gn

1252
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 2: Lord silver here? In terms of where he's headed? BC,

1253
00:55:08,680 --> 00:55:10,200
Speaker 2: I need you to pour me a shot because I'm

1254
00:55:10,200 --> 00:55:13,120
Speaker 2: about to say something somewhat kind about Bryce Mitchell and.

1255
00:55:14,600 --> 00:55:17,800
Speaker 4: Here let's go, Uh, the odds aren't deserve it. Bryce

1256
00:55:17,840 --> 00:55:20,920
Speaker 4: Mitchell has a very clear path to win, like we

1257
00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,080
Speaker 4: have seen. John Silva, to Luke's point, is a little untested,

1258
00:55:24,280 --> 00:55:27,600
Speaker 4: but like he's we've seen a good amount of like

1259
00:55:27,800 --> 00:55:31,040
Speaker 4: certainly in his previous to UFC run, he does not

1260
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:33,200
Speaker 4: have the best offensive wrestling. And I don't really care

1261
00:55:33,239 --> 00:55:37,120
Speaker 4: how great your bottom game jiu jitsu is. Bryce Mitchell,

1262
00:55:37,800 --> 00:55:41,560
Speaker 4: whatever he thinks in that head of his, it's a

1263
00:55:41,800 --> 00:55:45,680
Speaker 4: very good grappler, a very very good grappler. I think

1264
00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:49,200
Speaker 4: that Jean Silva my my great hope, as Jean Silva

1265
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,919
Speaker 4: is my you know, draft picks pick six guy, Yeah,

1266
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 4: and your lord, my Lord and savior, I.

1267
00:55:56,440 --> 00:55:57,319
Speaker 2: Hope he saves us.

1268
00:55:57,360 --> 00:55:59,399
Speaker 4: My hope is that he knew what he was getting into,

1269
00:55:59,560 --> 00:56:01,640
Speaker 4: because this the fight he wanted. It is the fight

1270
00:56:01,719 --> 00:56:06,360
Speaker 4: he called for immediately. And I hope that he understands

1271
00:56:06,400 --> 00:56:08,759
Speaker 4: and he is crafting his career appropriately because I look

1272
00:56:08,800 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 4: at this fight and see, there's a very good chance

1273
00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:15,279
Speaker 4: that Bryce freaking Mitchell gets a hot live.

1274
00:56:15,080 --> 00:56:19,160
Speaker 2: Mic in front of his ass on Saturday and whoabody,

1275
00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:19,960
Speaker 2: who the hell knows?

1276
00:56:20,080 --> 00:56:21,200
Speaker 1: They know?

1277
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:23,560
Speaker 2: They didn't give who did they not give an interview

1278
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 2: to recently recently, oh torres Finnie in the cage afterwards

1279
00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,680
Speaker 2: there like yeah, we're cutting commercial, no, But Torres Finnie

1280
00:56:28,880 --> 00:56:32,400
Speaker 2: made the great cardinal sin of being boring yes, he

1281
00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:35,960
Speaker 2: free speed Mitchell, but you know UFC rules, we can

1282
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:37,799
Speaker 2: say what we want there. Looking outside of the saying

1283
00:56:37,840 --> 00:56:40,200
Speaker 2: what we want, I gotta I almost ask you the

1284
00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,400
Speaker 2: same question, are you a believer in Silva? I mean,

1285
00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:44,799
Speaker 2: the fighting nerds are so on fire that it's they're

1286
00:56:44,880 --> 00:56:49,040
Speaker 2: so aggressive. They bring joy to the octagon. He's bringing

1287
00:56:49,040 --> 00:56:51,759
Speaker 2: the earth globe to the press conference to make fun

1288
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:54,319
Speaker 2: of Bryce. He's in Bryce's head. But what happens when

1289
00:56:54,320 --> 00:56:55,880
Speaker 2: this fight goes to the ground, Dude.

1290
00:56:55,640 --> 00:56:57,920
Speaker 1: I'm not entirely sure. I really don't know. I mean,

1291
00:56:57,920 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 1: I'm just trying, not trying to feign ignorance. I really

1292
00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,320
Speaker 1: don't know. On the feet, I'm thinking it's much of

1293
00:57:01,360 --> 00:57:04,120
Speaker 1: a mystery with all of those guys with hoofy, with projests,

1294
00:57:04,120 --> 00:57:07,080
Speaker 1: with all of them, they're they're creative, they're dangerous, they're

1295
00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:10,799
Speaker 1: they're clever, they're interesting, they're new on the ground. I mean,

1296
00:57:10,840 --> 00:57:12,799
Speaker 1: even Iliota Poria had to kind of play it safe

1297
00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:14,799
Speaker 1: off of a takedown that he suffered against Bryce, and

1298
00:57:14,920 --> 00:57:16,200
Speaker 1: you know he had to kind of wait and then

1299
00:57:16,240 --> 00:57:18,280
Speaker 1: on the second attempts he had to show great down

1300
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:21,240
Speaker 1: blocking the old Like I don't know if Silva's got

1301
00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: that in him. To be quite honest, I don't know.

1302
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,160
Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe he won't have to, maybe he'll

1303
00:57:25,240 --> 00:57:29,600
Speaker 1: land something before it's even relevant. But I trust the grappling,

1304
00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 1: even when it didn't go perfect for Iliota Poria. Silva

1305
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:35,240
Speaker 1: is a completely different ballgame. It's a totally different guy,

1306
00:57:35,400 --> 00:57:38,920
Speaker 1: totally different style, totally different known weaknesses. This is why

1307
00:57:39,000 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 1: they make the fight, this is why the fight is interesting.

1308
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:41,560
Speaker 1: On those fight.

1309
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,320
Speaker 2: Turns, Mitchell vulnerable chin wise, I mean, if.

1310
00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:46,120
Speaker 1: You get cracked the way he's been cracked, I.

1311
00:57:45,960 --> 00:57:48,440
Speaker 2: Mean, Chrome's not gonna crack and Crohn's disease. Well, but

1312
00:57:48,440 --> 00:57:51,280
Speaker 2: now Chrome, Gracie, you know what I mean, he's a problem.

1313
00:57:51,480 --> 00:57:55,160
Speaker 2: Luke's right, you get cracked like that. Sure. Also, I

1314
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:57,560
Speaker 2: don't know every human being alive can get knocked out

1315
00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:00,640
Speaker 2: by Josh fucking and Eliot Tapoorria. That's doesn't really tell

1316
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,240
Speaker 2: me about his ship Long Island. Look, you are a

1317
00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:05,680
Speaker 2: betting expert. We already know you're gonna take the plus

1318
00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:07,560
Speaker 2: money on Bryce because that's how you're built. But what

1319
00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:10,080
Speaker 2: I really want to know is how confident are you are?

1320
00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:13,160
Speaker 2: You literally willing to bet your house and your future

1321
00:58:13,200 --> 00:58:15,080
Speaker 2: as a bad boyfriend. As Luke would say, no.

1322
00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,640
Speaker 5: Of course not. I'm just taking the value here, dude,

1323
00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:20,880
Speaker 5: plus seventy five. He's gonna take John down. John was

1324
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,200
Speaker 5: taken down by Charles Jordain three times, Charles Jordain fifteen

1325
00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,800
Speaker 5: UFC fights, only taking down two different opponents. I mean,

1326
00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 5: not really a great wrestler there. I feel like Bryce

1327
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:31,360
Speaker 5: is gonna pretty handedly take.

1328
00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,840
Speaker 2: Wow, pretty handedly win and take him down and all that,

1329
00:58:34,520 --> 00:58:38,080
Speaker 2: and so excited. What will be the subject lou Thomas

1330
00:58:38,120 --> 00:58:40,439
Speaker 2: of Bryce's post fight interview if he does win, O, god,

1331
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:43,160
Speaker 2: let me take let me take a little blanc out

1332
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:44,040
Speaker 2: of that volume.

1333
00:58:45,160 --> 00:58:48,120
Speaker 1: Not just not just that, but his post fight comments,

1334
00:58:48,160 --> 00:58:51,320
Speaker 1: like we backstage much.

1335
00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:54,320
Speaker 4: Worse because he's usually fairly tame. I think the last

1336
00:58:54,360 --> 00:58:58,320
Speaker 4: time he's like gave money to charity or something. If

1337
00:58:58,400 --> 00:59:01,800
Speaker 4: some memory serves, like the earthquakes or the fires, maybe

1338
00:59:01,840 --> 00:59:04,240
Speaker 4: in La like he'll probably be fairly tame.

1339
00:59:04,360 --> 00:59:06,680
Speaker 2: With the live mic book, We're going to be on

1340
00:59:06,720 --> 00:59:09,320
Speaker 2: a journey at that fight. Mitchell, at that press conference

1341
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:11,000
Speaker 2: where he did have a chance to clear the air,

1342
00:59:11,320 --> 00:59:14,920
Speaker 2: said the really best like they hated Jesus too. He

1343
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:17,120
Speaker 2: kind of went down that road. It's like not not

1344
00:59:17,200 --> 00:59:19,880
Speaker 2: comparable on the since there not? I mean, come on,

1345
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:23,400
Speaker 2: like not all right, sorry about that? That's that's uh

1346
00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:26,120
Speaker 2: g and Silva by knockout s silver By?

1347
00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,440
Speaker 4: Are you choosing that because he has put the demons

1348
00:59:28,440 --> 00:59:29,640
Speaker 4: in Bryce's head or.

1349
00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,640
Speaker 2: You know, also rocks JC too, so he you know,

1350
00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:33,840
Speaker 2: but he'll be willing to fight.

1351
00:59:33,640 --> 00:59:35,000
Speaker 1: Like he's got that Lord tattoo.

1352
00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:37,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he'll be willing to fight like like the demon there.

1353
00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:38,960
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not being one of these people that

1354
00:59:39,160 --> 00:59:40,680
Speaker 2: you know, Rice can say whatever he wants at the

1355
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:42,560
Speaker 2: end of the day. I'm not subscribing to his podcast

1356
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:44,840
Speaker 2: or his point of view. I'm not even cheering for

1357
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:47,440
Speaker 2: him to meet violence for all the shit he said,

1358
00:59:47,480 --> 00:59:50,200
Speaker 2: it's it's deplorable. I just think Silva's coming on. These

1359
00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:51,400
Speaker 2: fighting nerds are fun as hell.

1360
00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:51,640
Speaker 1: Man.

1361
00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:53,560
Speaker 2: This is his moment. This is moment's kind of become

1362
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:53,840
Speaker 2: a star.

1363
00:59:53,960 --> 00:59:56,360
Speaker 1: Bryce Mitchell is still quite young. How old is by?

1364
00:59:56,800 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 1: I mean, it's not like he's washed. He had a

1365
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:01,240
Speaker 1: terrible knockout loss against but he's not.

1366
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:03,080
Speaker 2: Warm City miles on him though. Even though he's a

1367
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:04,640
Speaker 2: country boy, he's been around the ball.

1368
01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:06,360
Speaker 1: He doesn't wear seatbelts. So he's got the tuck and

1369
01:00:06,480 --> 01:00:06,960
Speaker 1: roll miles.

1370
01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, city hills.

1371
01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:11,040
Speaker 4: When a power drill can't take your nuts off you,

1372
01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:12,800
Speaker 4: what is a car crash going to do to you?

1373
01:00:12,880 --> 01:00:16,840
Speaker 1: Really, Loube, I don't know how to answer that.

1374
01:00:17,880 --> 01:00:20,640
Speaker 2: These are the things. He's a minimalist. He lives in

1375
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:22,840
Speaker 2: that trailer and for morning coffee he just takes a

1376
01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:24,680
Speaker 2: scoop of coffee grounds and just choose on it.

1377
01:00:24,960 --> 01:00:26,360
Speaker 1: You know what. The guys in the Marine Corps did

1378
01:00:26,360 --> 01:00:28,480
Speaker 1: that too. Yeah, it's not not a great way to

1379
01:00:28,560 --> 01:00:31,600
Speaker 1: enjoy a couple of coffee. We would dip it. We

1380
01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:33,040
Speaker 1: would put it in our gums and then just like

1381
01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:34,680
Speaker 1: dip it like tobacco.

1382
01:00:35,160 --> 01:00:36,560
Speaker 2: But I guess you gotta do what you gotta do.

1383
01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:38,880
Speaker 1: And the MRI it's like, am I going to sit

1384
01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 1: here on a cold ass morning and boil fucking water? No,

1385
01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:43,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna take this folders, I'm gonna stuff it in

1386
01:00:43,840 --> 01:00:44,080
Speaker 1: my gun.

1387
01:00:44,200 --> 01:00:46,720
Speaker 2: You know how many of Luke's marine buddies, Well, not

1388
01:00:46,840 --> 01:00:48,680
Speaker 2: only have paid for sex I think I was about saying,

1389
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 2: but have married active strippers. Not one, not two, yeah,

1390
01:00:53,440 --> 01:00:54,040
Speaker 2: not three.

1391
01:00:54,160 --> 01:00:57,520
Speaker 1: It's been several active at the time when they married him.

1392
01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:01,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, whatever makes you happy and nice anybody. I'm

1393
01:01:01,560 --> 01:01:03,160
Speaker 2: not going to be moral police here, but I'm gonna

1394
01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:05,320
Speaker 2: make her retire from that job, Okay, not not to

1395
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,200
Speaker 2: necessarily be in the kitchen. Just like we gotta we

1396
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:09,720
Speaker 2: gotta turn the corner. Okay, we gotta turn the corner. Okay,

1397
01:01:09,720 --> 01:01:11,400
Speaker 2: we got to go to a new new direction.

1398
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:12,880
Speaker 1: If you want to turn the corner, turn the corner

1399
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:15,880
Speaker 1: on that person, not like turn the corner on their stripping.

1400
01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:18,960
Speaker 2: Okay, Hey, we should turn the center on the career work. Okay, Well,

1401
01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,439
Speaker 2: let's let's end that conversation and transition to this one. Hey, guys,

1402
01:01:22,440 --> 01:01:24,800
Speaker 2: there's a featherweight about that you just can't miss on

1403
01:01:24,840 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 2: this UFC three fourteen main card and this breakdown off. Yeah,

1404
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:32,720
Speaker 2: He're Rodriguez versus Patricio Pitfull is presented by Total Wireless. Yes,

1405
01:01:32,840 --> 01:01:35,480
Speaker 2: let's do it right here. Yeah, you're Rodriguez is riding

1406
01:01:35,480 --> 01:01:37,920
Speaker 2: a two fight losing streak, although he's still in general

1407
01:01:38,040 --> 01:01:40,919
Speaker 2: considered one of the better featherweights in this world. He'll

1408
01:01:40,960 --> 01:01:45,640
Speaker 2: be taking on a thirty seven year old Patricio Pitbull Friari,

1409
01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,960
Speaker 2: the all time great belatour fighter. In fact, the greatest

1410
01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:53,040
Speaker 2: fighter in belitour MMA history, the multi divisional champion. Damn.

1411
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:55,400
Speaker 2: He almost tried to pull off a three divisional champion

1412
01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:57,960
Speaker 2: run there but lost to Sergio Pettis. We know this

1413
01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:00,560
Speaker 2: is not going to be the prime pit Bull fellas,

1414
01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 2: but you know that he's been waiting his entire career

1415
01:02:04,400 --> 01:02:08,840
Speaker 2: dealing with the bedazzling blindness of Eric Alberressin's gene collection.

1416
01:02:09,320 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 2: And really, you know that he's going to bring that

1417
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:15,760
Speaker 2: one punch power. He's gonna go for broke, he fights savage.

1418
01:02:15,800 --> 01:02:18,240
Speaker 2: I mean, we love everything that Pipule brings. I'm glad

1419
01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:20,320
Speaker 2: in his career he's gonna get this close up. But

1420
01:02:20,440 --> 01:02:22,840
Speaker 2: is it too late? Jed and As Yeah, ear Rodriguez

1421
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:26,320
Speaker 2: the wrong opponent or f ubc. Either way, we're getting

1422
01:02:26,320 --> 01:02:30,760
Speaker 2: fireworks on Saturday, both right, Like I'm we're gonna it's

1423
01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:32,919
Speaker 2: gonna be fun. Piple is fun, Yeah, Hera is fun.

1424
01:02:33,240 --> 01:02:35,520
Speaker 2: It is too late for him. He's pushing forty in

1425
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:38,320
Speaker 2: a way class where you can't push thirty five and

1426
01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:41,600
Speaker 2: be good. Yeah, yere is a I think a really

1427
01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:45,000
Speaker 2: bad matchup for him. Just stylistically. I'm mostly offended that

1428
01:02:45,040 --> 01:02:47,120
Speaker 2: this isn't the Jose Aldo matchup that we should have,

1429
01:02:47,200 --> 01:02:50,440
Speaker 2: like this should fire. Huh freaking Jose Aldo, whether it's

1430
01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,040
Speaker 2: one thirty five, have to be for Catchwait, however you

1431
01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:55,320
Speaker 2: do it? Because Piple has said he'll fight anywhere from

1432
01:02:55,320 --> 01:02:57,640
Speaker 2: featherweight to welterweight in the US. He didn't say anything

1433
01:02:57,640 --> 01:02:58,160
Speaker 2: without bantam.

1434
01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:01,040
Speaker 4: Eh, whatever, we'll make it work, like that's what should

1435
01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:03,200
Speaker 4: have happened, and said Jose's fighting even as a hobby

1436
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,240
Speaker 4: or whatever. But like, this is still going to be fun,

1437
01:03:06,240 --> 01:03:08,479
Speaker 4: and so I can't be that upset because it's going

1438
01:03:08,520 --> 01:03:09,000
Speaker 4: to be fun.

1439
01:03:09,280 --> 01:03:10,280
Speaker 2: I think the end of that.

1440
01:03:10,200 --> 01:03:13,400
Speaker 4: Fun will be yeah, you Rodriguez totally whipping that ass,

1441
01:03:13,640 --> 01:03:15,280
Speaker 4: But like they'll still be pretty good.

1442
01:03:15,360 --> 01:03:18,080
Speaker 2: Not every bellator great that's come to the UFC has

1443
01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:21,480
Speaker 2: instant success. Will Brooks is a great example, Lombard. But

1444
01:03:21,600 --> 01:03:26,640
Speaker 2: Eddie Alvarez and the great uh what's his name, sorry,

1445
01:03:26,640 --> 01:03:29,360
Speaker 2: the great Michael Chandler, Eddie Alvarez and the great cheater

1446
01:03:29,440 --> 01:03:32,760
Speaker 2: Michael Chandler have had incredible success transitioning. This is a

1447
01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:35,600
Speaker 2: little bit later in years. How confident are you that

1448
01:03:35,840 --> 01:03:38,439
Speaker 2: Pipple can maybe not have you know, a four fight

1449
01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:41,080
Speaker 2: win streak, maybe not become champion, but might be able

1450
01:03:41,080 --> 01:03:43,280
Speaker 2: to get himself into a title fight. He'd have to

1451
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:46,320
Speaker 2: win this matchup most likely. But where are you on

1452
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:48,000
Speaker 2: what's left in that gas tank?

1453
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:51,240
Speaker 1: I mean, his last win was somewhat redemptive. That effort

1454
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:53,480
Speaker 1: at thirty five was a big waste. I don't, I

1455
01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:54,480
Speaker 1: just don't. I don't even know what.

1456
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:56,640
Speaker 2: We get stopped in Japan, then he lost to Pettis

1457
01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,600
Speaker 2: by decision. The other way he lost a Pettist. Then

1458
01:03:59,600 --> 01:04:01,880
Speaker 2: he went to and then he stopped Jeremy Kennedy.

1459
01:04:01,960 --> 01:04:04,560
Speaker 4: Yes, that was a lightweight fight or like one fifty

1460
01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:05,840
Speaker 4: five or something whatever.

1461
01:04:06,360 --> 01:04:08,439
Speaker 1: So he looked good at that one. He looked much better.

1462
01:04:08,440 --> 01:04:09,800
Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna get waxed in that one.

1463
01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:11,640
Speaker 1: I was like, oh, he's completely done. But then he

1464
01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:13,120
Speaker 1: looked pretty good, so I was like, Okay, he's not.

1465
01:04:13,240 --> 01:04:14,520
Speaker 1: So maybe he just had a bit of a rough

1466
01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,439
Speaker 1: run there and the weight class change and everything wasn't

1467
01:04:16,440 --> 01:04:21,040
Speaker 1: great and whatever. Obviously, dynamite power puncher, you know, he's

1468
01:04:21,080 --> 01:04:22,920
Speaker 1: got a more convention He's got a well rounded but

1469
01:04:22,960 --> 01:04:25,560
Speaker 1: more conventional game than Yi Rodriguez. So it's really going

1470
01:04:25,640 --> 01:04:27,120
Speaker 1: to be a function of, like, to what extent he

1471
01:04:27,240 --> 01:04:29,560
Speaker 1: can close the distance and put the fight on his range.

1472
01:04:29,960 --> 01:04:31,920
Speaker 1: But you know, yeah, hear's got all kinds of tricks

1473
01:04:31,960 --> 01:04:34,640
Speaker 1: and explosivity and like just fine stuff. And it's like,

1474
01:04:35,680 --> 01:04:38,480
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what the state of pit Bull's

1475
01:04:38,520 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 1: reflexes are. He has good defense traditionally, but you know

1476
01:04:42,040 --> 01:04:44,080
Speaker 1: you're gonna get hit with wild ass shit going in

1477
01:04:44,120 --> 01:04:45,880
Speaker 1: against that unless you can define the terms of the

1478
01:04:45,880 --> 01:04:48,960
Speaker 1: exchange like vault where you're fainting the whole time and

1479
01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:51,040
Speaker 1: you're in your changing stances and all this kind of stuff.

1480
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:52,280
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's that kind of a guy.

1481
01:04:52,280 --> 01:04:53,440
Speaker 1: I don't know if he's got that kind of an

1482
01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:54,440
Speaker 1: effort to put into it.

1483
01:04:54,480 --> 01:04:55,840
Speaker 2: What do you think he's gonna go for it? Though?

1484
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,320
Speaker 2: Who Pitbull? You're gonna make the most of this opportunity

1485
01:04:59,320 --> 01:05:02,320
Speaker 2: and come out gun blazing. I mean it's kind of

1486
01:05:02,360 --> 01:05:03,240
Speaker 2: what he does anyway.

1487
01:05:03,280 --> 01:05:06,960
Speaker 1: No, you think it'll be No, I mean he has

1488
01:05:07,080 --> 01:05:09,280
Speaker 1: enough power, like we saw him sleep Michael Chandler, Like

1489
01:05:09,320 --> 01:05:12,760
Speaker 1: he's got enough power to do that. I just don't.

1490
01:05:12,880 --> 01:05:14,960
Speaker 1: I mean, do people come out guns blazing against the

1491
01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:17,200
Speaker 1: ear and do well, I'm suck.

1492
01:05:19,000 --> 01:05:21,560
Speaker 2: Not historic Max did in Round one that was a war.

1493
01:05:21,920 --> 01:05:24,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Max has like a legendary chin and isn't

1494
01:05:24,200 --> 01:05:25,920
Speaker 1: wasn't thirty seven in that bout? You know?

1495
01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,200
Speaker 2: So well, I'm just wondering if we are not talking

1496
01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:30,840
Speaker 2: enough about the fact that Yahye has lost two in

1497
01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:34,040
Speaker 2: a row. One was a stoppage on strikes to Volkanovski

1498
01:05:34,040 --> 01:05:37,320
Speaker 2: for the title. The second it was against a second

1499
01:05:37,320 --> 01:05:40,640
Speaker 2: half of his career, Brian Ortego. Where were there almost

1500
01:05:40,680 --> 01:05:42,520
Speaker 2: donk elements for yeah year in that fight or am

1501
01:05:42,560 --> 01:05:43,320
Speaker 2: I making things.

1502
01:05:43,240 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 1: Up donk elements against Brian or.

1503
01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:47,680
Speaker 2: Yeah making mistakes being in the wrong. I mean what

1504
01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:49,240
Speaker 2: I'm I guess what I'm trying to spell out here.

1505
01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:51,560
Speaker 2: For his elite as Yaya has been at certain points

1506
01:05:51,560 --> 01:05:53,640
Speaker 2: of his career, in particularly that that build up to

1507
01:05:53,880 --> 01:05:55,560
Speaker 2: when he won the interim title and when he finally

1508
01:05:55,560 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 2: fought Volk, he can get lured into crazy ass matchups.

1509
01:06:00,960 --> 01:06:03,000
Speaker 2: I'm saying, if Pippule decides to come out, make the

1510
01:06:03,000 --> 01:06:05,240
Speaker 2: most of his opportunity, make this the fight of the

1511
01:06:05,360 --> 01:06:07,480
Speaker 2: night that we expect it has the opportunity to be.

1512
01:06:08,320 --> 01:06:11,120
Speaker 2: Maybe this is the right opponent ultimately, because Pipple's willing

1513
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:13,080
Speaker 2: to get in there and take the damage and deliver it,

1514
01:06:13,800 --> 01:06:15,480
Speaker 2: and maybe he can. Maybe a ra is the right

1515
01:06:15,520 --> 01:06:18,960
Speaker 2: foil for that. I would suggest that that would be

1516
01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 2: terrible for Pippule because, like people who know me outside

1517
01:06:23,680 --> 01:06:25,640
Speaker 2: of this, I don't have a lot of good things

1518
01:06:25,640 --> 01:06:28,240
Speaker 2: to say about Brian Orteg as a fighter. He confounds me.

1519
01:06:28,360 --> 01:06:30,160
Speaker 2: He's one of my favorites. Okay, I don't.

1520
01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:32,080
Speaker 4: Understand him because I don't think he's good, but he's

1521
01:06:32,080 --> 01:06:33,080
Speaker 4: obviously very good.

1522
01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:35,640
Speaker 2: The thing that he is very good at is taking

1523
01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:38,320
Speaker 2: a beating like he cannot be killed. And so if

1524
01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:42,320
Speaker 2: if the calculus is I'm gonna come and just bash heads,

1525
01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 2: that's a really bad math problem against Brian Ortega. Pipple's

1526
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:47,560
Speaker 2: is not the same thing.

1527
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,439
Speaker 4: Like if Pipple's like I'm gonna throw caution to the wind,

1528
01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:52,520
Speaker 4: I'll be like, sweet, you're gonna get knocked out here.

1529
01:06:52,520 --> 01:06:54,120
Speaker 2: I don't mean fight like an asshole, but I mean

1530
01:06:54,720 --> 01:06:57,960
Speaker 2: aim to land the knockout punch in the opening round.

1531
01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, really be aggressive. It wouldn't be

1532
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:02,000
Speaker 2: legitimately cool.

1533
01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:04,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, Year's pretty good chin like the dudes he's lost

1534
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:08,160
Speaker 4: to Volkanovsky, all time great, Max Holloway, all time great.

1535
01:07:08,320 --> 01:07:11,400
Speaker 4: With an impervious chin or UNDERTAKEO. You can't hurt him

1536
01:07:11,400 --> 01:07:14,600
Speaker 4: like these are just I don't think Pitpole's there anymore.

1537
01:07:14,640 --> 01:07:16,200
Speaker 2: I hope I am wrong, because it would be so

1538
01:07:16,280 --> 01:07:18,600
Speaker 2: much cooler if Pipple won this fight and we could

1539
01:07:18,640 --> 01:07:22,520
Speaker 2: do Pitbull versus Diego Lopez at Guadalajara like that would

1540
01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,880
Speaker 2: be sick. The other losses for h yeah year by

1541
01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:27,520
Speaker 2: the way, was that decision lost to Max that was

1542
01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:30,000
Speaker 2: very competitive, and then he was stopped by Frankie Edgar

1543
01:07:30,040 --> 01:07:31,200
Speaker 2: back in twenty seventeen.

1544
01:07:31,640 --> 01:07:34,479
Speaker 1: He was he was unprepared for that moment.

1545
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 2: Were his other UFC defeats. Is what I'm trying to

1546
01:07:36,920 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 2: stay there so early thirty two years old, Like I

1547
01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:41,320
Speaker 2: guess what I'm trying to say is not enough people

1548
01:07:41,320 --> 01:07:43,480
Speaker 2: are mentioning that Yeayer is coming on a two fight

1549
01:07:43,520 --> 01:07:44,880
Speaker 2: losing streak, both by stopping.

1550
01:07:44,600 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 1: And by the way, he only fought once in twenty

1551
01:07:46,080 --> 01:07:48,080
Speaker 1: twenty three and once in twenty twenty four, and here

1552
01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:50,320
Speaker 1: he is one time so far anyway, one time in

1553
01:07:50,360 --> 01:07:52,960
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Like that's relative level of inactivity that

1554
01:07:53,040 --> 01:07:56,320
Speaker 1: doesn't suit his interest all that well. Pitbull, you know,

1555
01:07:56,480 --> 01:07:58,520
Speaker 1: I think is going to be highly motivated. Obviously, this

1556
01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:01,840
Speaker 1: is an experienced guy, if ever there was one UFC debut.

1557
01:08:02,280 --> 01:08:04,040
Speaker 1: But it's just a question of like, can he get

1558
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,480
Speaker 1: close enough to let what he does well. I mean

1559
01:08:06,480 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: he's got a heighth disadvantage and a reach disadvantage. You

1560
01:08:09,800 --> 01:08:12,919
Speaker 1: know that's he can wrestle. He probably does have better

1561
01:08:12,920 --> 01:08:16,719
Speaker 1: pure jiu jitsu than Yeah, but you know he needs

1562
01:08:16,720 --> 01:08:18,439
Speaker 1: to get into the right kind of real estate to

1563
01:08:18,439 --> 01:08:20,760
Speaker 1: make that happen. And yeah, here's pretty tough to do that.

1564
01:08:20,760 --> 01:08:23,559
Speaker 2: Again saying don't count out Pipple, I'm saying the biggest

1565
01:08:23,560 --> 01:08:25,160
Speaker 2: moment of his career in a lot of ways, even

1566
01:08:25,160 --> 01:08:27,920
Speaker 2: if it's coming after his prime, this is his this

1567
01:08:27,960 --> 01:08:29,200
Speaker 2: is his showcase opportunity.

1568
01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:30,719
Speaker 1: I just wish he would have thought someone who would

1569
01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:33,519
Speaker 1: have accommodated the distance a little bit more like an Aldo. Sure,

1570
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:34,320
Speaker 1: I think that.

1571
01:08:34,320 --> 01:08:35,760
Speaker 2: Would have been cool. No, see, what do we have

1572
01:08:35,760 --> 01:08:36,880
Speaker 2: for odds on this? Fantastic?

1573
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:38,320
Speaker 1: I know it would been great.

1574
01:08:38,560 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 5: Got minus one ninety two for yeah, year plus one

1575
01:08:41,479 --> 01:08:42,000
Speaker 5: sixty for.

1576
01:08:42,280 --> 01:08:44,320
Speaker 1: There's a lot of respect to these odds on all

1577
01:08:44,360 --> 01:08:45,320
Speaker 1: these fights are like.

1578
01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 2: Great is I mean, shout out to them. This is

1579
01:08:49,720 --> 01:08:52,240
Speaker 2: car I'm leaning in Pipple here, I'm leaning Pipple. I

1580
01:08:52,280 --> 01:08:54,120
Speaker 2: think that he's going to give himself a shot to

1581
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:56,000
Speaker 2: be in a title fight, and I think UFC would

1582
01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:58,559
Speaker 2: be smart to capitalize. I hope you're right. It would

1583
01:08:58,600 --> 01:08:59,559
Speaker 2: be so much cooler.

1584
01:08:59,880 --> 01:09:01,400
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go yeah, Air, but I hope you're right

1585
01:09:01,400 --> 01:09:01,760
Speaker 1: as well.

1586
01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:03,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, it'd be a lot cooler if you did. Everyone

1587
01:09:04,040 --> 01:09:06,400
Speaker 2: is rooting for Pimpole to get it done this week. Look,

1588
01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:08,920
Speaker 2: have you been nursing that? Yeah? I haven't that drink

1589
01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:12,439
Speaker 2: they're coming through. Yeah, that's what I think, Hick Margheriti,

1590
01:09:12,479 --> 01:09:14,720
Speaker 2: you got going on there to close out here the

1591
01:09:14,760 --> 01:09:17,240
Speaker 2: pay per view main card. No one's talking about this matchup,

1592
01:09:17,280 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 2: but it's interesting. Nikita Kreelov hasn't fought in two years,

1593
01:09:20,160 --> 01:09:21,960
Speaker 2: even though he's writing what looks to be a pretty

1594
01:09:21,960 --> 01:09:24,920
Speaker 2: good on paper three fight win streak. Dommic Rays at

1595
01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:28,400
Speaker 2: thirty five, has won his last two, both by stoppage.

1596
01:09:28,439 --> 01:09:31,080
Speaker 2: I get also a win streak two is a streak,

1597
01:09:31,439 --> 01:09:33,920
Speaker 2: two is a streak. The level of opponents at the

1598
01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,559
Speaker 2: times right when it's Anthony Smith, last time, Dustin Jacoby

1599
01:09:36,600 --> 01:09:39,160
Speaker 2: before that can be argued with do I think at

1600
01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:41,960
Speaker 2: this point, you know, in terms of just pure stock,

1601
01:09:42,080 --> 01:09:45,000
Speaker 2: is Creeloft the better fighter. Sure, but as we mentioned,

1602
01:09:45,000 --> 01:09:46,880
Speaker 2: the thirty three year old Kreeloff has not been around

1603
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 2: for a while. Is there a dom Reyis renaissance that's

1604
01:09:49,560 --> 01:09:51,800
Speaker 2: going on and we just have not fully woke up

1605
01:09:51,840 --> 01:09:54,519
Speaker 2: to it? Because if he wins this, like, we're gonna

1606
01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:56,400
Speaker 2: be talking about him in this shallow ass division in

1607
01:09:56,479 --> 01:09:59,040
Speaker 2: terms of like is he kind of back? I am

1608
01:09:59,040 --> 01:09:59,800
Speaker 2: I putting the cart wave.

1609
01:10:00,320 --> 01:10:03,559
Speaker 1: I don't think you're I don't I don't do. Two

1610
01:10:03,560 --> 01:10:06,280
Speaker 1: of five is like fly weight. It's like, did you

1611
01:10:06,360 --> 01:10:08,040
Speaker 1: win at least disrespectful?

1612
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:11,519
Speaker 2: Yeah? That is respectful? Oh is it? Is it anyway

1613
01:10:11,600 --> 01:10:12,040
Speaker 2: to flyway?

1614
01:10:12,120 --> 01:10:12,760
Speaker 1: Yeah? Way?

1615
01:10:12,800 --> 01:10:13,160
Speaker 2: Flyweight?

1616
01:10:13,160 --> 01:10:16,280
Speaker 1: It's a good division, okay, But flyweight is also it's

1617
01:10:16,320 --> 01:10:20,120
Speaker 1: not hard to get a title shot, relatively speaking, relative

1618
01:10:20,200 --> 01:10:22,600
Speaker 1: to even one seventy. It's not hard to get a

1619
01:10:22,640 --> 01:10:24,559
Speaker 1: title shot because they're just looking for people to fucking

1620
01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:26,360
Speaker 1: throw it to the front of the line. Two of

1621
01:10:26,439 --> 01:10:28,440
Speaker 1: five is like that. Two of five is like, uh,

1622
01:10:28,880 --> 01:10:31,160
Speaker 1: can you pass a reading exam? And uh, you know

1623
01:10:31,240 --> 01:10:33,120
Speaker 1: if you paid your taxes on time? All right, there

1624
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:33,400
Speaker 1: you go.

1625
01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:35,120
Speaker 2: I don't think the latter is necessary.

1626
01:10:35,479 --> 01:10:37,160
Speaker 1: Fire them up, fire them up, so like, I don't

1627
01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:39,080
Speaker 1: think you're ever that far, and it's like, I don't

1628
01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:41,280
Speaker 1: know if there's like giant momentum for either guy, But

1629
01:10:42,439 --> 01:10:44,640
Speaker 1: I don't think you're that I really a good A

1630
01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:46,920
Speaker 1: good win on a card like this against either of

1631
01:10:46,960 --> 01:10:49,720
Speaker 1: these opponents can do a world of good for your

1632
01:10:49,800 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 1: chances to the title.

1633
01:10:50,600 --> 01:10:52,960
Speaker 2: Jed kree Love twenty twenty two. So he had he

1634
01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:54,880
Speaker 2: had lost three of four, he was on a bad stretch,

1635
01:10:54,920 --> 01:10:57,959
Speaker 2: But in twenty twenty two he stops old ass Alexander Guvsison,

1636
01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:01,920
Speaker 2: gets a decision over No Time Volcano's Damir, and then

1637
01:11:01,960 --> 01:11:05,760
Speaker 2: submits Ryan Span and then disappears for two years. Where

1638
01:11:05,840 --> 01:11:07,640
Speaker 2: is this guy at at thirty three? How good is

1639
01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:08,960
Speaker 2: Kreelov right now? Dude?

1640
01:11:09,240 --> 01:11:11,040
Speaker 4: You could have asked me that at any point in

1641
01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:13,759
Speaker 4: time during his career, and I could have never given

1642
01:11:13,800 --> 01:11:16,000
Speaker 4: you an answer. When he came in as a heavyweight,

1643
01:11:16,000 --> 01:11:17,960
Speaker 4: it was the only time I'd been like, he's bad.

1644
01:11:18,360 --> 01:11:18,880
Speaker 2: He is bad.

1645
01:11:19,400 --> 01:11:19,519
Speaker 1: Ok.

1646
01:11:19,920 --> 01:11:21,760
Speaker 4: But that's the thing I would have been wrong, because

1647
01:11:21,760 --> 01:11:25,040
Speaker 4: he's not bad. He is like a good competent light heavyweight.

1648
01:11:25,320 --> 01:11:29,120
Speaker 4: But he has been so mercurial, like sometimes his performances

1649
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:31,240
Speaker 4: are like, oh, this dude is exciting and fun and

1650
01:11:31,280 --> 01:11:35,040
Speaker 4: he's got limitations, he's got problems, but like everyone does

1651
01:11:35,080 --> 01:11:36,559
Speaker 4: it two o five, who gives a shit. He's a

1652
01:11:36,560 --> 01:11:39,360
Speaker 4: fun dude, and then he goes away for two years

1653
01:11:39,400 --> 01:11:42,519
Speaker 4: on a good It's really hard to say coming off

1654
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:46,439
Speaker 4: beating Ryan Span qualifies a good win streak, but that's that's.

1655
01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:48,479
Speaker 2: The same got to stop by Ryan Span at the

1656
01:11:48,560 --> 01:11:49,960
Speaker 2: end of his forefight, losing Spook.

1657
01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:52,400
Speaker 4: We're not here to talk about bad things for dom

1658
01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:55,040
Speaker 4: Reys because dom Reyes is back and this will be

1659
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:56,280
Speaker 4: the weekend where we all.

1660
01:11:56,080 --> 01:11:58,280
Speaker 2: Get to say it and it'll be very fun for us.

1661
01:11:58,320 --> 01:12:00,240
Speaker 2: So I don't know what to make of Krilla, know

1662
01:12:00,240 --> 01:12:03,120
Speaker 2: what to make of this layoff. I am deeply interested

1663
01:12:03,160 --> 01:12:05,400
Speaker 2: in this fight. Like you said, what fight? Did you

1664
01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:08,519
Speaker 2: say was the comin event? Is your most anticipating Mine

1665
01:12:08,640 --> 01:12:09,160
Speaker 2: is the Comaine.

1666
01:12:09,160 --> 01:12:12,040
Speaker 1: I don't know what Luke's would be the main main Okay,

1667
01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:13,599
Speaker 1: both of those are good choices.

1668
01:12:14,000 --> 01:12:16,479
Speaker 4: This is my most anticipated because I don't know what

1669
01:12:16,479 --> 01:12:19,479
Speaker 4: the hell is gonna happen, and I am deeply interested

1670
01:12:19,479 --> 01:12:22,120
Speaker 4: in It's the silliest fight of the whole event, and

1671
01:12:22,160 --> 01:12:23,040
Speaker 4: I love the silly fight.

1672
01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:25,439
Speaker 2: When the wheels fell off for dom Reis in that

1673
01:12:25,479 --> 01:12:27,479
Speaker 2: four fight losing skid did start with the John Jones

1674
01:12:27,520 --> 01:12:28,680
Speaker 2: fight that you thought he won, and a lot of

1675
01:12:28,720 --> 01:12:30,680
Speaker 2: people thought he won, but none of us could predict it.

1676
01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,920
Speaker 2: After Jones vacated the title and we were ready, I

1677
01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,200
Speaker 2: was ready to give the crown to Reyes, that he

1678
01:12:35,240 --> 01:12:38,120
Speaker 2: would get stopped by Yan in the vacant title fight

1679
01:12:38,160 --> 01:12:41,639
Speaker 2: and then get stopped two times more after that. Maybe

1680
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:45,240
Speaker 2: some of that was mental or his game not evolving.

1681
01:12:45,960 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 2: I don't think it was fully Chin related. I mean,

1682
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 2: he did take some time off in between that. Is

1683
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,559
Speaker 2: he like back back back? Is it possible to be

1684
01:12:53,600 --> 01:12:56,320
Speaker 2: back back back? Or is eighty percent of him in

1685
01:12:56,320 --> 01:12:58,679
Speaker 2: this division? Like we're talking about an interesting story.

1686
01:12:58,760 --> 01:13:00,680
Speaker 1: I don't know if I think he's back to the

1687
01:13:00,720 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 1: guy who gave Jones everything he could handle. I don't

1688
01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:04,960
Speaker 1: know if I can believe that was that twenty That

1689
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:10,559
Speaker 1: was twenty twenty, right, twenty twenty maybe just pandemic. Yeah,

1690
01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:12,080
Speaker 1: So like I don't know if we're gonna get back

1691
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:13,679
Speaker 1: to that. But can he be better than the guy

1692
01:13:13,680 --> 01:13:16,280
Speaker 1: who was getting iced by Yeerie and then iced by

1693
01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:19,920
Speaker 1: Yan and then you know, I'll just a constant series

1694
01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:23,240
Speaker 1: of like really terrible knockouts. It appears that he can

1695
01:13:23,320 --> 01:13:25,519
Speaker 1: be better than that. But I'm you know, even if

1696
01:13:25,520 --> 01:13:28,559
Speaker 1: he beats Kriloff, that would this would be the first

1697
01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:30,720
Speaker 1: win since like, you know, this win Street keep put

1698
01:13:30,760 --> 01:13:33,360
Speaker 1: together that I would be like, okay, all right, he

1699
01:13:33,439 --> 01:13:36,439
Speaker 1: has really fixed a lot of things that have been

1700
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:38,640
Speaker 1: a problem for him. But you know, you get iced

1701
01:13:38,680 --> 01:13:40,800
Speaker 1: that many times, and it's just going to be a

1702
01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:43,960
Speaker 1: lot easier to get iced the subsequent time. Krill Off

1703
01:13:44,520 --> 01:13:45,720
Speaker 1: can be a bit of a fuck up, but he

1704
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:48,080
Speaker 1: also has got a little bit of surprising offense at times,

1705
01:13:48,120 --> 01:13:50,439
Speaker 1: you know, by the way, surprisingly good guard too, Like

1706
01:13:50,479 --> 01:13:52,040
Speaker 1: he can play with that. That's the thing he needs

1707
01:13:52,080 --> 01:13:54,439
Speaker 1: to do. So this this is an interesting fight at

1708
01:13:54,520 --> 01:13:57,640
Speaker 1: light heavyweight. For light heavyweight, it's just you know, do

1709
01:13:57,720 --> 01:13:59,600
Speaker 1: you see a guy in either case that's going to

1710
01:13:59,640 --> 01:14:01,320
Speaker 1: give on? Calai have a tough time.

1711
01:14:01,400 --> 01:14:03,880
Speaker 2: I don't look no, see it real quick? Where are

1712
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:05,640
Speaker 2: you leaning as it? From a betting standpoint on this,

1713
01:14:05,720 --> 01:14:06,920
Speaker 2: Given everything we just said.

1714
01:14:07,320 --> 01:14:09,800
Speaker 5: Betting standpoint, I took the over one and a half

1715
01:14:09,840 --> 01:14:13,519
Speaker 5: in a parlay, little risky. From just picking standpoint, I'm

1716
01:14:13,560 --> 01:14:16,519
Speaker 5: going Krylov, But I hope Jed is right. I hope

1717
01:14:16,520 --> 01:14:19,519
Speaker 5: Reyes wins and we finally go Don Reyes is back. Personally,

1718
01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:20,840
Speaker 5: I can't trust him going into this.

1719
01:14:20,880 --> 01:14:23,840
Speaker 2: What are the odds on Reys right now? I mean,

1720
01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:25,280
Speaker 2: you could just keep that website. I don't think I

1721
01:14:25,560 --> 01:14:27,439
Speaker 2: helped the show one ninety when I bet him.

1722
01:14:27,600 --> 01:14:30,280
Speaker 5: He is, see they have the fights out.

1723
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:32,360
Speaker 2: It'll just move on. Thank you very much, thank you.

1724
01:14:32,360 --> 01:14:32,679
Speaker 1: It was great.

1725
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:33,479
Speaker 2: I got it right here.

1726
01:14:33,520 --> 01:14:36,440
Speaker 5: Okay minus one seventy five K plus one forty.

1727
01:14:36,160 --> 01:14:38,280
Speaker 2: Five that seems right. But I think it wouldn't be

1728
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:39,920
Speaker 2: bad to put a little money on Reys and ride

1729
01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:42,599
Speaker 2: this ride, this streak, ride this momentum. He made us

1730
01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:44,639
Speaker 2: feel good again as fans. He's gonna get it done.

1731
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 4: Here's the thing about Dom Rays. There are two important

1732
01:14:47,080 --> 01:14:50,840
Speaker 4: things about this. One, he's streaking. He's got the confidence back.

1733
01:14:50,920 --> 01:14:52,719
Speaker 2: Baby. Like you lose four in a row, you start

1734
01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:56,679
Speaker 2: doubting yourself, you think, oh, maybe I can't do this streaking. Two,

1735
01:14:57,400 --> 01:14:59,479
Speaker 2: I think there's a noticeable like if you just look

1736
01:14:59,520 --> 01:15:01,400
Speaker 2: at his resume and you were like, is it just

1737
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,720
Speaker 2: a chin? Honestly, yeah, I kind of think it's just

1738
01:15:04,760 --> 01:15:05,080
Speaker 2: a chin.

1739
01:15:05,120 --> 01:15:08,880
Speaker 4: Because John Jones easily his best performance, just regardless of

1740
01:15:08,880 --> 01:15:09,640
Speaker 4: the fact they lost it.

1741
01:15:09,720 --> 01:15:11,639
Speaker 2: Like John Jones is not known as a dude who's

1742
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:15,160
Speaker 2: a one hitter quitter. He doesn't bring that kind of offense. Sure,

1743
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:18,280
Speaker 2: Jan Belhovich, I think his power is a little overstated,

1744
01:15:18,320 --> 01:15:21,000
Speaker 2: but he certainly does have one punch power. Ryan Span

1745
01:15:21,400 --> 01:15:23,679
Speaker 2: basically the only thing he has is a guillotine choke

1746
01:15:23,760 --> 01:15:27,320
Speaker 2: and one punch power. And Yuri Prahashka, we kind of

1747
01:15:27,320 --> 01:15:30,000
Speaker 2: know that he can really lay the wood into you there.

1748
01:15:30,680 --> 01:15:34,080
Speaker 2: Like Prilov's not a dude who has that sort of

1749
01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:35,320
Speaker 2: violent offense.

1750
01:15:35,600 --> 01:15:36,960
Speaker 1: Like his offense kicking, he can't.

1751
01:15:37,400 --> 01:15:39,840
Speaker 2: I guess the kicking, like it's possible that gets there,

1752
01:15:39,880 --> 01:15:42,840
Speaker 2: but like he's mostly he'll he'll be attrided with his

1753
01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,599
Speaker 2: damage or he's got like a sneaky good submission game.

1754
01:15:45,640 --> 01:15:48,240
Speaker 2: And that really hasn't been the foidbale for dom Rees.

1755
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:50,960
Speaker 2: I don't think dom Rees is back, Like we're not

1756
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:53,080
Speaker 2: getting dom Reyes who beat John Jones or should have

1757
01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:55,559
Speaker 2: beat John Jones. But I do think he can and

1758
01:15:55,600 --> 01:15:58,080
Speaker 2: will win this fight, and we should all be rooting

1759
01:15:58,080 --> 01:16:00,439
Speaker 2: for him because he was good guy. He was this

1760
01:16:00,680 --> 01:16:03,280
Speaker 2: close to being the greatest what if in the history

1761
01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:05,639
Speaker 2: of this sport, Like here's the guy who should forever

1762
01:16:05,720 --> 01:16:07,640
Speaker 2: be known as the guy who beat John Jones and

1763
01:16:07,680 --> 01:16:10,080
Speaker 2: he got fucked by the jests. Well, Hoovich put that

1764
01:16:10,080 --> 01:16:11,880
Speaker 2: footprint on the side of his bookcage, and that was

1765
01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:14,160
Speaker 2: that was the beginning. You know, remember that mark that

1766
01:16:15,000 --> 01:16:18,799
Speaker 2: when I kicked him and a cut Oh yeah, yeah, nasty.

1767
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:20,880
Speaker 2: That was the beginning of the end right there. All right, well,

1768
01:16:20,880 --> 01:16:22,680
Speaker 2: that's the main card right there. And Luke, I know

1769
01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:24,760
Speaker 2: you texted me earlier. It's it was kind of rude,

1770
01:16:24,760 --> 01:16:26,960
Speaker 2: but you're like, it's obvious Jet isn't wearing deodorant today,

1771
01:16:27,000 --> 01:16:28,640
Speaker 2: so it's like, you know, maybe we should keep him

1772
01:16:28,640 --> 01:16:31,240
Speaker 2: out of this discussion. But you know the problems, Luke,

1773
01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:34,360
Speaker 2: with mainstream deodorants, with body odor, with that desire to

1774
01:16:34,360 --> 01:16:35,920
Speaker 2: stay cool. I don't know if you guys are catching

1775
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:38,880
Speaker 2: this fantastic spray that I'm rocking right now from the

1776
01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:41,360

Speaker 2: a heavyweight.

1830
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:14,920
Speaker 1: Who looks like two featherweights stacked on top of each other.

1831

Speaker 2: It's all true. He's thirteen one and one in his career.

1832
01:19:18,520 --> 01:19:21,639
Speaker 2: He hasn't lost in seven UFC fights. No one ever

1833
01:19:21,680 --> 01:19:24,080
Speaker 2: talks about this guy as a contender. Yet he's fun.

1834
01:19:24,360 --> 01:19:26,680
Speaker 2: He's a difficult matchup for everybody. How do you like

1835
01:19:26,720 --> 01:19:28,800
Speaker 2: this matchup in terms of like the size difference, the

1836
01:19:28,840 --> 01:19:29,839
Speaker 2: skill difference, everything.

1837
01:19:29,960 --> 01:19:32,120
Speaker 4: I think this is really good matchmaking because this is

1838
01:19:32,160 --> 01:19:34,080
Speaker 4: the fight where we start talking about Sean Woodson as

1839
01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:34,599
Speaker 4: a contender.

1840
01:19:35,200 --> 01:19:37,880
Speaker 2: I love Danny Gay. I think Danny Gay is exactly

1841
01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:41,320
Speaker 2: the term gatekeeper has looked as like a pejorative, but

1842
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:44,320
Speaker 2: it's not like that's a noble profession. You guard the gates.

1843
01:19:44,720 --> 01:19:45,800
Speaker 2: That's what Danny Gay does.

1844
01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:48,760
Speaker 4: He guards the gates to the top ten at this

1845
01:19:48,800 --> 01:19:53,439
Speaker 4: weight class. I think Sean Woodson he's gonna be comically larger,

1846
01:19:53,479 --> 01:19:55,839
Speaker 4: Like I can't wait for the first like the face offs,

1847
01:19:55,880 --> 01:20:00,080
Speaker 4: after the ceremonials, Like he is going to be cartoonishly larger.

1848
01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:02,679
Speaker 2: Then Danny Gay. Danny Gay is a very talented fighter,

1849
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:05,720
Speaker 2: incredibly durable, And so we're gonna get fifteen minutes of

1850
01:20:05,800 --> 01:20:09,480
Speaker 2: Sean Woodson kind of showcasing the best of his abilities.

1851
01:20:09,720 --> 01:20:12,320
Speaker 4: I think that those will be good, certainly good enough

1852
01:20:12,320 --> 01:20:14,760
Speaker 4: to get the W and we can start that conversation

1853
01:20:14,880 --> 01:20:18,559
Speaker 4: BC of Hey dark horse, you know in the way

1854
01:20:18,640 --> 01:20:21,320
Speaker 4: class like, guy's got a lot of physical attributes. It

1855
01:20:21,439 --> 01:20:23,720
Speaker 4: tough out, it hadn't been been in a long time,

1856
01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:25,280
Speaker 4: tough out, Like, how do you approach him?

1857
01:20:25,520 --> 01:20:28,200
Speaker 2: Guy that big? Like, I think this is the coming

1858
01:20:28,200 --> 01:20:29,920
Speaker 2: out party for Sean woods Look, the thirty three year

1859
01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,000
Speaker 2: old Leguay has lost three of his last four. There

1860
01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:35,559
Speaker 2: were certain circumstances, including fighting Diego Lopez on about an

1861
01:20:35,560 --> 01:20:36,479
Speaker 2: hour notice off.

1862
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:36,960
Speaker 1: Of his couch.

1863
01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:40,040
Speaker 2: This is more of an opportunity for Woodson to get ahead.

1864
01:20:40,040 --> 01:20:41,240
Speaker 2: But you can't count out Egan.

1865
01:20:41,280 --> 01:20:43,439
Speaker 1: No, you can't count out Egan Eric Nixon trance, So

1866
01:20:43,479 --> 01:20:45,000
Speaker 1: you know they're gonna have a good game plan. I

1867
01:20:45,000 --> 01:20:48,040
Speaker 1: suspect that height differential is going to be interesting because,

1868
01:20:48,040 --> 01:20:50,280
Speaker 1: on the one hand, Woodson's knees might come into play.

1869
01:20:50,280 --> 01:20:52,479
Speaker 1: And if you're Ega, I think body shots, body shots

1870
01:20:52,479 --> 01:20:55,400
Speaker 1: are gonna be real, real big to see what happens there.

1871
01:20:55,520 --> 01:20:58,759
Speaker 1: Egay has proven to be better so far than Shawn Woodson,

1872
01:20:58,760 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 1: but he's also had better opportunity. Well, now Woodson is

1873
01:21:01,200 --> 01:21:04,040
Speaker 1: getting opportunities. Let's see what two featherweights on top of

1874
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:05,479
Speaker 1: each other in a trench coat trying to get into

1875
01:21:05,479 --> 01:21:07,160
Speaker 1: an R rated movie in nineteen eighty six can do.

1876
01:21:08,680 --> 01:21:09,360
Speaker 2: That was a good one.

1877
01:21:09,400 --> 01:21:11,640
Speaker 1: That was a good one. All right, we don't talk

1878
01:21:11,760 --> 01:21:13,720
Speaker 1: no hip hop warning. We don't get it.

1879
01:21:13,720 --> 01:21:15,000
Speaker 2: We don't get it. You don't get it after the

1880
01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,000
Speaker 2: fact either. Oh, let's go to the women's straweight division.

1881
01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:18,920
Speaker 2: We never go to the women's straweight division because it

1882
01:21:19,000 --> 01:21:21,519
Speaker 2: used to be loaded top ten all killers. Now it's

1883
01:21:21,560 --> 01:21:24,360
Speaker 2: a lot of filler. But this matchup might produce the

1884
01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:27,679
Speaker 2: next title challenger for Joangwaili if she stays in the division.

1885
01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:30,040
Speaker 2: When we're talking about Yon, Shawnan winner of three of

1886
01:21:30,040 --> 01:21:32,920
Speaker 2: her last four, against a streaking thirty six year old

1887
01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:35,840
Speaker 2: Vienna Jenji Roba, who has won four in a row.

1888
01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:37,879
Speaker 2: We don't have to go along on this or the matchup,

1889
01:21:37,960 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 2: but you might be seeing the winner get a title shot.

1890
01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:41,320
Speaker 2: Who's going to be the winner?

1891
01:21:41,360 --> 01:21:47,160
Speaker 1: Luke I susp Jan shaw NaN's gotten a lot better.

1892
01:21:47,200 --> 01:21:48,679
Speaker 1: She was already good on the feet, but her game

1893
01:21:48,760 --> 01:21:52,200
Speaker 1: ground game has gotten a lot better. She's thirty five.

1894
01:21:52,240 --> 01:21:54,880
Speaker 1: I think Geni Roba is much better on the ground.

1895
01:21:54,880 --> 01:21:56,600
Speaker 1: I don't think that's really the issue. The issue is

1896
01:21:56,640 --> 01:22:00,479
Speaker 1: can she make that work? I think she can, but

1897
01:22:00,680 --> 01:22:02,400
Speaker 1: it's a very What are the odds on that one?

1898
01:22:03,720 --> 01:22:07,200
Speaker 1: Let me see here, favorite Oh I got here. Our

1899
01:22:07,200 --> 01:22:09,800
Speaker 1: friends at DraftKings have Jenji Roba minus one forty eight,

1900
01:22:09,880 --> 01:22:11,639
Speaker 1: Yansha non plus w twenty. I mean these are all

1901
01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:14,200
Speaker 1: one or plus or minus. There's a damn near pickums

1902
01:22:14,240 --> 01:22:16,759
Speaker 1: in every case. I do think I kind of understand

1903
01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:19,280
Speaker 1: the odds. I think Geniu Roba has just a little

1904
01:22:19,280 --> 01:22:20,800
Speaker 1: bit of an edge in the ground and that should

1905
01:22:20,880 --> 01:22:23,599
Speaker 1: be enough. But it's a good, competitive, tough fight.

1906
01:22:23,640 --> 01:22:25,720
Speaker 2: I love John's only lost in the last four was

1907
01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:27,439
Speaker 2: to the champion Whalley, but she gave her a good

1908
01:22:27,479 --> 01:22:29,880
Speaker 2: fight at UFC three hundred, So I'm into this matchup.

1909
01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:31,519
Speaker 2: I know most people aren't. It looks to me like

1910
01:22:31,560 --> 01:22:31,920
Speaker 2: you aren't.

1911
01:22:32,120 --> 01:22:34,559
Speaker 4: It's a really good fight. I wish it was five rounds.

1912
01:22:34,600 --> 01:22:36,160
Speaker 4: I think that that would be a little more instructive.

1913
01:22:36,200 --> 01:22:39,160
Speaker 4: Three rounds I think give you on a much better chance.

1914
01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:41,759
Speaker 4: She is coming along in the wrestling. Her defensive grappling

1915
01:22:41,800 --> 01:22:44,519
Speaker 4: against Wylie. She gave up the takedowns, but she didn't

1916
01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:47,080
Speaker 4: get finished, so you know, credit to her there. If

1917
01:22:47,120 --> 01:22:49,479
Speaker 4: she had a little more danger on the feet, I

1918
01:22:49,479 --> 01:22:50,120
Speaker 4: would pick her.

1919
01:22:50,320 --> 01:22:50,559
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1920
01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:52,360
Speaker 2: I know she killed Jessica and Droves.

1921
01:22:52,400 --> 01:22:55,000
Speaker 4: It's the only person she's ever done that too, and

1922
01:22:55,080 --> 01:22:57,120
Speaker 4: so I just don't have confidence that she can hurt Vienna.

1923
01:22:57,160 --> 01:22:59,080
Speaker 2: I think Vienna it looks you know point.

1924
01:22:59,160 --> 01:23:01,080
Speaker 4: I think Verna is also have been getting better, right

1925
01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:02,920
Speaker 4: like he's you know, he said that uh.

1926
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:05,280
Speaker 2: Jan has been improving. I think Verna has been improving.

1927
01:23:05,320 --> 01:23:06,439
Speaker 2: I think she gets over the hump.

1928
01:23:06,520 --> 01:23:09,280
Speaker 4: She gets a title fight, whether it's against Wiley or

1929
01:23:09,280 --> 01:23:11,479
Speaker 4: whether it's an interim title fight, because Wiley's moving up.

1930
01:23:11,560 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 2: I guess we'll come to find but I think I

1931
01:23:13,240 --> 01:23:17,439
Speaker 2: like Verna can look at her opponent and check. Sorry,

1932
01:23:17,520 --> 01:23:18,880
Speaker 2: she could look for teven Farmer.

1933
01:23:19,320 --> 01:23:21,400
Speaker 1: Gets one for that, all right, he gets one for

1934
01:23:21,479 --> 01:23:22,120
Speaker 1: the eyeballs show.

1935
01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:25,559
Speaker 2: Sorry, we're deep into the show. No one's watching anyway.

1936
01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:27,759
Speaker 2: Let's hit this lightweight matchup that is like a perfect

1937
01:23:27,760 --> 01:23:31,920
Speaker 2: crossroads of young versus old and Jim Miller and Chase Hooper. Look,

1938
01:23:32,040 --> 01:23:34,439
Speaker 2: Chase Hooper's fun of shit, and he's getting better his

1939
01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:37,160
Speaker 2: co his stand up used to be comical, but he's

1940
01:23:37,200 --> 01:23:40,360
Speaker 2: an action guy. He gets in crazy twisters and mixes

1941
01:23:40,400 --> 01:23:43,599
Speaker 2: around and changes positions. And Jim Miller is freaking Jim Miller.

1942
01:23:43,920 --> 01:23:46,280
Speaker 2: I know we love this fight. Who's gonna win it?

1943
01:23:46,280 --> 01:23:47,519
Speaker 2: That's the real question here.

1944
01:23:48,520 --> 01:23:49,679
Speaker 1: Probably Jim Miller.

1945
01:23:49,920 --> 01:23:53,400
Speaker 2: Wow, make a wager with our friends.

1946
01:23:53,520 --> 01:23:55,080
Speaker 1: Oh Jesus, no, I guess I'm wrong.

1947
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 2: It is a big line.

1948
01:23:56,160 --> 01:23:58,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, they've got Hooper at minus eight fifty. What am

1949
01:23:58,280 --> 01:23:59,080
Speaker 1: I missing about this?

1950
01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:02,160
Speaker 2: Well, Jim has one everything. I think this line is

1951
01:24:02,840 --> 01:24:04,479
Speaker 2: way too big. I mean it is.

1952
01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:07,519
Speaker 1: What is the argument for why Miller is such an underdog?

1953
01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:11,360
Speaker 4: Chase Hooper just beat another old man and now he

1954
01:24:11,400 --> 01:24:13,680
Speaker 4: gets another proxy for his dad that he gets to

1955
01:24:13,680 --> 01:24:16,280
Speaker 4: beat on Miller better. Jim Miller is much better than

1956
01:24:16,800 --> 01:24:17,040
Speaker 4: I think.

1957
01:24:17,040 --> 01:24:18,240
Speaker 2: This line is very very I mean.

1958
01:24:18,200 --> 01:24:19,960
Speaker 1: I guess I'm wrong. Hooper deserves to be the favorite,

1959
01:24:19,960 --> 01:24:21,920
Speaker 1: but I feel like Miller could make this much.

1960
01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:23,759
Speaker 2: More minus eight hundred favorite.

1961
01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:26,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's crazy, huge number.

1962
01:24:26,360 --> 01:24:28,400
Speaker 2: I normally I love that fight in so many ways.

1963
01:24:28,400 --> 01:24:32,120
Speaker 2: I normally wouldn't ask you guys about Sidricus Dumas against

1964
01:24:32,439 --> 01:24:37,080
Speaker 2: uh alf Rand impersonator mihal Ola shakescheck, but Shakeshack is

1965
01:24:37,120 --> 01:24:40,360
Speaker 2: now with the fighting nerds. I think is true. I

1966
01:24:40,360 --> 01:24:43,200
Speaker 2: don't know, or maybe for this camp or did I

1967
01:24:43,200 --> 01:24:43,800
Speaker 2: misread the VI.

1968
01:24:43,960 --> 01:24:45,439
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. I did see something about that, but

1969
01:24:45,479 --> 01:24:47,559
Speaker 1: I didn't know if that was a bit all right.

1970
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:51,479
Speaker 2: Well, the thirty year old Poland brawler has lost four

1971
01:24:51,520 --> 01:24:53,360
Speaker 2: of his last five, but he comes to fight every

1972
01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:55,240
Speaker 2: time it makes wars, so I'll be watching.

1973
01:24:55,400 --> 01:24:58,240
Speaker 4: He comes throes the kitchen sink like he's an action dude,

1974
01:24:58,240 --> 01:25:01,000
Speaker 4: So you're always fun. Juma's I don't know if he's

1975
01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:03,439
Speaker 4: good even so, like I'm gonna guess we'll look stage

1976
01:25:03,520 --> 01:25:04,120
Speaker 4: all right.

1977
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:06,920
Speaker 2: A really fun our early prelim featured fight. I'm not

1978
01:25:06,960 --> 01:25:09,479
Speaker 2: going to miss this featherweight Darren Elkins with the worst

1979
01:25:09,479 --> 01:25:12,240
Speaker 2: tattoos of all time, but willing to just bleed for

1980
01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:17,120
Speaker 2: anyone anywhere. Juicy j is his opponent, Julian Erosa at featherweight.

1981
01:25:17,200 --> 01:25:20,000
Speaker 2: Neither one's going anywhere but entertainment. That's where they're going.

1982
01:25:20,040 --> 01:25:21,559
Speaker 2: Luke this Saturday, are you in?

1983
