Of course, 153 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 2: in the main event, probably the best fight of the 154 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: card in terms of rankings and actual stakes. When we 155 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 2: look at a rematch two years after two years and 156 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:53,840 Speaker 2: four days, by the way, after the fact of Marvin 157 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 2: Vttori and Roman deleted it. The first time around, Vattori 158 00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 2: scored a close but disputed the unanimous decision over three rounds. 159 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 2: But in this rematch, which was all action and was 160 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,039 Speaker 2: exciting down the stretch in the so called championship rounds. 161 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 2: It goes the way of Roman deleads a gaining revenge 162 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 2: and catapulting forward when you consider the names that he 163 00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 2: called out, so Roman gets the best of the rematch. 164 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: Was this a case though, Luke Thomas of de leeds 165 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 2: a showing improvement from that first fight, Remember he lost 166 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: the subsequent fight after that one two in a row. 167 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 2: Now that's a three fight winning streak. Or was this 168 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 2: victory maybe not being himself declining or just the realities 169 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,840 Speaker 2: of him being off nearly two years with an injury 170 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 2: recovery coming into this fight. 171 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 1: I don't know if we It's hard for me to 172 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: exactly say there's if you're off that amount of time, 173 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 1: you obviously have to consider that a relevant factor in 174 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,920 Speaker 1: a prize fighter's career that is in a significant amount 175 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 1: of time. And we didn't really talk about it, but 176 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 1: of course part of that was related to injury rehabilitation. 177 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: These are difficult moments, but we had kind of surmised 178 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,880 Speaker 1: BC on Friday, Hey, if anybody could make a good 179 00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: rebound from that given his age and some other factors. 180 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,640 Speaker 1: It seems like Vittori had some of those factors with 181 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 1: the wind at his back, So I don't want to 182 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,000 Speaker 1: say that it played no role, but I do think 183 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:14,520 Speaker 1: when I watched this fight, and I watched it a 184 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: couple times when we were texting back and forth today 185 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 1: on the train ride, I think the leads got better. 186 00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: I think the leads got better. Now, if you look 187 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: at the numbers for Vittori in the first three round fight, 188 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: he was competing somewhere in terms of strikes landed per minute, 189 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: excuse me, strikes landed per round, somewhere in the high thirties, 190 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,640 Speaker 1: almost at forty. In this fight he was high teens 191 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: in the low twenties, So his output for Vittori was 192 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: not nearly as high. But if you just look at 193 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 1: who made not huge but slight yet meaningful adjustments, I 194 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: think it was Roman Deleds. I think it hat better defense. 195 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 1: I think he had better understand I mean, obviously third 196 00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 1: round was a bit tough. Obviously he got hurt there, 197 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,880 Speaker 1: better pacing, better stamina. 198 00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,760 Speaker 2: Look, I thought he was gonna fold in the fifth round, 199 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 2: not fall apart fold, but I thought he was going 200 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,320 Speaker 2: to get outworked in that final round. Yet he was 201 00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 2: the one pushing the offense and closing strong. I gotta 202 00:09:10,080 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 2: give that up to him. 203 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:15,560 Speaker 1: Yes, and he had more offensive ideas in this fight 204 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 1: than he did in the first one Chaos, Yes, dude, yes, 205 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: and he was some of that landed. What round was 206 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:24,040 Speaker 1: what he hit him with the back elbow and like 207 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:25,400 Speaker 1: the fourth of the fifth, I forget which one it 208 00:09:25,520 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: was where it had an effect. It just looked to 209 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: me like the leads that we talked about. It were 210 00:09:30,040 --> 00:09:32,880 Speaker 1: those last two wins he had before this one? Were 211 00:09:32,920 --> 00:09:35,840 Speaker 1: they against the very best middleweight? It's no, not necessarily 212 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,440 Speaker 1: or in case of Smith up a two oh five, no, 213 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: not necessarily, but they're you know, these are still important 214 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 1: victories to get there. You can fine tune your craft 215 00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: through all of it. You get your paychecks flowing, you're 216 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:53,200 Speaker 1: staying active. I think BC for me accumulatively. The story is, 217 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 1: you know, did the leads A transform No, I don't 218 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: think he transformed, but he got incrementally yet meaningfully better. 219 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:05,280 Speaker 1: And Vittori, I let me say this about rounds rounds. 220 00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:08,080 Speaker 1: First of all, his chin is fucking ridiculous. 221 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 2: His conditioning is also. 222 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: Did you not get a sickening feeling in your stomach 223 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,760 Speaker 1: when I think it was round five when the leads 224 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: A hit him with that knee and you could hear 225 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: it go crack, and dude, Vittori just treated it like 226 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,480 Speaker 1: it was a light breeze. His chin is absurd. And 227 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: there were a couple of rember their open stance. So 228 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: it's one South Paul, one orthodox. Vitri had a couple 229 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: of back up open side counters. 230 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,319 Speaker 2: It wasn't consistent, but you could see the att Mike Brown, 231 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 2: that's effect. 232 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 1: You could see some things he was trying to add. 233 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: He just wasn't theory. 234 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:41,880 Speaker 2: A little bit of head movement every once in a while. 235 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: Hard to go for him. From defense to offense. He's 236 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 1: either got offense or he's got the defense. It's but 237 00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:48,360 Speaker 1: he did have the he did have the open side 238 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: counters a couple of times. It wasn't like Vittori looked 239 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: like trash. That's really not the point. The leads a 240 00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,959 Speaker 1: being active, working on his craft, having some new ideas, 241 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: adjusting for some things the first time. 242 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,920 Speaker 2: To me, that made all the difference, no doubt about it. Well, look, 243 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: this is a close matchup first fight and second fight. 244 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 2: First fight I thought deleads one two to one, but 245 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 2: it would go two to one, two to one, three 246 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: nothing on those score cards this time around over five rounds. 247 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 2: All three judges had at forty nine to forty six 248 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,200 Speaker 2: or four rounds two. I did not for Deldee, which 249 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,600 Speaker 2: I thought was a little much. All three judges gave 250 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: Delie the first and second rounds. I thought the first 251 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 2: round should have gone to Vittori. I thought round three, 252 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 2: when Vittori dropped a leads, I gave him that round. Yes, 253 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,079 Speaker 2: but I give Delidze credit in rounds four and five 254 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 2: for coming back in on my score cards sealing it 255 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,120 Speaker 2: three to two. Did you have it similar? 256 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: Yep? My scorecard is identical. Round three, clear round for Vittori, 257 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 1: rounds four and five clear rounds for Delde, Round two 258 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,480 Speaker 1: clear rounds for Deledze, and that's simply enough. Round one. 259 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:46,000 Speaker 1: The debate is whether or not Vittori, who numerically outlanded Dalids, 260 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: did better work. And I think people who scored it 261 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: for Delidze say he landed less, but he landed more authoritatively. 262 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: I didn't see it that way, but it doesn't matter 263 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 1: either way. Two four and five clear rounds for Delidze. 264 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: He's your rightful one. 265 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 2: They both show. I mean, look, was it the highest 266 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 2: level even though it was two guys lingering around the 267 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 2: top ten, one in one on the outside. No, it 268 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,680 Speaker 2: wasn't Autosnia versus Whitaker level, but the chins, the gas tanks, 269 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 2: the will of both. I did enjoy the fight overall. 270 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 2: Long Island. Look, before we hear from Vittori, do you 271 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 2: think there's a case scoring wise three to two here 272 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:17,760 Speaker 2: for Vittori. 273 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 4: Nah, I had it Dalis for to one. I don't 274 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 4: think there's a case. 275 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:24,320 Speaker 1: Do you think the first round was close? 276 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 4: Yes, for sure. I thought the whole fight was close, 277 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 4: But like I still thought Alieds clearly won. 278 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: One guy just kind of pulled a head. 279 00:12:31,360 --> 00:12:33,480 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, Well, tough break for Vittori because he did 280 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:36,160 Speaker 2: fight hard twenty five minutes. He's been so many five 281 00:12:36,200 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 2: round main events, whether he's deserved them all or not. Right, 282 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 2: he's been kind of kind of a favorite of UFC. 283 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: I mean, there does seem to be that Lorenzo connection 284 00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: that's brought up a lot with the Italians. 285 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: And again his youth, he's at one of the young Well, 286 00:12:48,559 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: I mean that's changing now, but for a long time 287 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 1: he's been kind of one of these upstart middleweights and 288 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: still in their twenties waiting for him to turn the 289 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 1: corner to Sea. 290 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: Turned the corner. That was the big question we had 291 00:12:56,679 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 2: coming in. Would he show us a drastic improvement of 292 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 2: crist There were pockets of improvements of craft, little moments 293 00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 2: that helped him, but they were both swinging for the 294 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 2: fences on every punch. So it came down to that 295 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 2: will that. 296 00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 1: Do me say this? You had Dominic Cruz mentioning this, 297 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:14,720 Speaker 1: and I think he Dominic Cruz mentions this all the time. 298 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:17,040 Speaker 1: But the reason why he does this all the time 299 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 1: is because it's relevant all the time. And I'm not 300 00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 1: talking about underhooks. I'm talking about fakes and feints. And 301 00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: he made a point I think it was around round three, 302 00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: where he was just saying to them or saying to 303 00:13:26,760 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 1: the broadcast to the audience, that you know, these guys 304 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:32,719 Speaker 1: are just kind of jousting. They're not really opening each 305 00:13:32,760 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: other up a little bit. For me, that was one 306 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: of my big criticisms of this fights like, these guys 307 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,040 Speaker 1: are senior level fighters. The leads a closer to forty 308 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:41,400 Speaker 1: than he is thirty at this point, I think he's 309 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: thirty six years old. I was hoping for a little 310 00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 1: bit more of that. 311 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 2: That's why I think when we get into the whole 312 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:49,520 Speaker 2: discussion around like you know, those the winner and in 313 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:51,560 Speaker 2: this case the leeds a how far does he catapult 314 00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: into true contention. There was no setups, There wasn't a 315 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,680 Speaker 2: lot of jabbing. There weren't really takedown you know, attempts 316 00:13:56,679 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 2: maybe outside of one. So it really was just who's 317 00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 2: going to be tough for over twenty five minutes? Who 318 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,680 Speaker 2: can land the bigger shots? Entertaining to a certain degree, 319 00:14:03,840 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 2: but I don't think like either one raise their stock 320 00:14:06,600 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 2: aggressively outside of Roman fixing the cardio issues and showing 321 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 2: you that, look, if you can go twenty five hard 322 00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 2: with him, he's got he's got the tools to win that. 323 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:18,439 Speaker 2: But this was a very basic but sort of simplistic 324 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: fight in that regard. Well, let's hear from Vitori in 325 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 2: terms of losing this close fight in his return from 326 00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 2: that what shoulder injury. 327 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I believe it's right. 328 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:26,800 Speaker 2: Here's Marvin Vctori. 329 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 6: Yep, nothing too bad, just some cuts and bruises. Fuck man, 330 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 6: life sometimes shows you that even you give your heart 331 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 6: out and everything you got, you still fall short. It 332 00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 6: was a close fight, almost had him on the turn, 333 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 6: but I guess it wasn't enough and uh yeah, man, fuck, 334 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,880 Speaker 6: I don't even know what to say. Just thank you 335 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:56,200 Speaker 6: to Att the best in the war, bro, thank you, Dan, 336 00:14:57,240 --> 00:15:02,160 Speaker 6: Mike Macahon, Marco, everybody, Broun, you know, all the sporty 337 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 6: partners helping me out. I love you Bro, love you guys, and. 338 00:15:08,240 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 2: Thank you UFC. 339 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 1: What the fucking my saber? 340 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 2: I don't know, that's it, Luke's serious question. Too many 341 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:21,040 Speaker 2: bbls in that time off? 342 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:25,920 Speaker 1: First of all, let he he was without sin cast 343 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: the first stone. 344 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 2: Is there a thing? Is too many bbls? 345 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: I don't know. I listen, Okay. I have two opinions 346 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: about the state of Marvin Vttori. On the one hand, 347 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 1: he's doing what we're asking him to do in the 348 00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,280 Speaker 1: sense that he had to get right with his injury. 349 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 1: He changed up camps, he moved all the way across 350 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: the country, at least, you know, for the camp. Anyway, 351 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 1: I'm not sure where exactly collects his maile. 352 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 2: You remember where his old camp was. 353 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,720 Speaker 1: It was King's m m A. He was with Hafel 354 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: Cordero and I think he was doing some other stuff too, 355 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 1: but but that was the that was the base of it. 356 00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: And he finally goes over to Florida. You know you, 357 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 1: I'm trending with Mike Brown and att there going to 358 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: get you. I don't know how far they can take you, 359 00:16:02,880 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: but however far that is, they're gonna get it. Yes, right, 360 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: And so all of those things I really like and 361 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 1: I really appreciate it, and I do think if he 362 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,200 Speaker 1: keeps investing in that it will pay dividends. At the 363 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,280 Speaker 1: same time, while I am appreciative of the fact that 364 00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: he's coming off of injury, off the layoff, camp change, 365 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: these are difficult things to like. It takes King Moto 366 00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: me this one time, like it takes time when you 367 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,480 Speaker 1: go to a new camp to get adjusted. Even if 368 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: that you're clicking with them automatically, there's just layers of 369 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:30,160 Speaker 1: that bond that have to get built over time. It's 370 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: just a function of how much time you have. At 371 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 1: the same time, the big knock on what he was 372 00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 1: doing was there just wasn't. He's a decision machine either way, 373 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: either he wins via decision or he loses via decision 374 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:46,320 Speaker 1: because he does have that foundational game. But there's nothing dangerous. 375 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: He has to find that BC. Yes, he's got to 376 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 1: find that extra gear, and I do believe Mike Brown 377 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 1: can do it. And dude, look at the fucking guy. 378 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,880 Speaker 1: He looks like a million hercules walking around out there. 379 00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,400 Speaker 2: When you have I don't know how long it skill lises, 380 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 2: but when you have a gas tank, a chin, and 381 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 2: a willingness, you can go very, very far. 382 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: To the point you raised about, like why the UFC 383 00:17:06,119 --> 00:17:07,919 Speaker 1: has belief in him, Okay, the fact that he's of 384 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,679 Speaker 1: Italian descent, you know, probably doesn't. 385 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 2: Hurt let's say I hurt him at all. 386 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,120 Speaker 1: But the other parts there there is you you look 387 00:17:14,160 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: at it on paper and you're like, dude, there's something here, 388 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 1: or just kind of waiting it. Maybe it was a 389 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: bit much this time because of all the factors we've mentioned, 390 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 1: but I'm gonna keep my eye on it. I do 391 00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 1: think it's something to pay attention to. And I think 392 00:17:24,520 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 1: for people who might be writing him off, being like, oh, 393 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: he's regressed, might be a little early to say something 394 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:31,640 Speaker 1: like that. Let's see how the rest of the year goes. 395 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 2: He would tweet afterwards that he wants a trilogy. Yeah, 396 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 2: no good, one's gonna want that now. But do we 397 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 2: see it down the road? Doesn't matter? 398 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't. There's no need to run that. 399 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 1: They didn't need to run this FI I agree with that. 400 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 2: Now Deliede would say ultimately that not fighting angry for 401 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,360 Speaker 2: the first time was a big part of his adjustment. 402 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 2: Here's the Leja talking about this victory. 403 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 7: You know a lot of guys are they are, oh, 404 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:56,200 Speaker 7: we are going to war. Listen, these guys don't see 405 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 7: the war. I see plenty of wars in my life 406 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 7: two thousand and eight in Georgia, when I was born, 407 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 7: in nineties, in Georgia, twenty fourteen, in Ukraine, twenty twenty two, 408 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 7: in Ukraine, I saw a lot of bad things. 409 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 1: People don't know what is real war. 410 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 7: But and when these guys are going there and so 411 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 7: we are going to war and this and then where 412 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:19,520 Speaker 7: I'm looking at their eyes and they're very serious about it, 413 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 7: I understand these guys don't know nothing about it. If 414 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 7: they want to see the word, I can take them. 415 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 7: I can show them if they want. But this is 416 00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:29,880 Speaker 7: I respect all of them. It's not like they are 417 00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 7: my enemies or something. That's why when I saw Marvin 418 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 7: during weightings, I go to him. I said, Marvin, I 419 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 7: was in Rome. It's an amazing city. I loved it 420 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 7: so much. I loved Italian food. I speak with him. 421 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 7: He was a little bit choked, probably, and understand why 422 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,360 Speaker 7: I'm talking to it. But I'm not looking at these 423 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 7: guys like my enemies for life or something. I'm a 424 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 7: cruel guy. I'm going there because I know that they 425 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:53,640 Speaker 7: want to hurt me, and I try to hurt them also, 426 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 7: But it doesn't mean it. I mean to them, and 427 00:18:57,720 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 7: it's only sport for me and nothing more. 428 00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not real war. Do you think that there 429 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,120 Speaker 2: should be a rule if that you're gonna wear the 430 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 2: Game of Thrones type clothing, that you should have to 431 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: have killed the animal. I mean, he might have to 432 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 2: be fair. 433 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: I would not doubt once again, I've said it before, 434 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 1: if you wear dead animals, and I mean like leather 435 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 1: you know Michael COR's jacket you bought at jay Z Penny. 436 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: I don't mean that, but I mean like real ass 437 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,480 Speaker 1: fucking game that you killed. You know, you mean business. 438 00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that is interesting for him to say that 439 00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:24,880 Speaker 2: it happened this late in his career where he finally 440 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 2: figured out how to keep his emotions and poison check, 441 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 2: and he was basically saying that this maturity in fire 442 00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 2: in the fight, he would get hit, get mad, and 443 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:34,879 Speaker 2: use up a lot of his gas tank in that regard. 444 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:36,639 Speaker 1: So sorry, I putt my hand up on the camera. 445 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: But again I'm not saying transformational. But did it look 446 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:43,960 Speaker 1: to you like he was, overall relative to the first fighter, 447 00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: certainly earlier in his career making better decisions. I would 448 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:50,200 Speaker 1: argue that it looked that way, and when you're calm, 449 00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 1: you can. 450 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 2: Do that better, but not best. And I know we'll 451 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 2: talk in a second about who he called out and 452 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:56,920 Speaker 2: what his future is, but look, I don't even though 453 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 2: he upped his output, which was a key part of 454 00:19:58,520 --> 00:20:01,479 Speaker 2: winning this fight along with fixing his damna, he was 455 00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,520 Speaker 2: fighting a single strike opponent, I don't know if that 456 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 2: output is gonna win him fights against the elites. We'll 457 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 2: get to that. I want to bring up the elephant 458 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 2: in the room, though, and that's Herbdan. That's that's the 459 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 2: ipoke central that went down. It's every week that we're 460 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 2: talking about ipokes, and they're back with the old gloves, 461 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 2: which I think makes it happen more. But the central 462 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 2: tension here is that referees are not following through and 463 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: taking away points the lads was the Leeds was warned 464 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:29,959 Speaker 2: early in Rounte at the start of round two by 465 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 2: Hi Refree Herbding before it started with coach knick Stick 466 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 2: there to just sort of say, look, this is not 467 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 2: gonna be allowed. You want to do this, which they 468 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 2: would talk on the air like who would do that? 469 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 2: Bisbee was saying, he's probably right, either do a fist 470 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 2: or whatever, but this is not going to work. Within 471 00:20:42,920 --> 00:20:47,160 Speaker 2: the next minute, he poked Vittori in the eye and 472 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 2: was given a softer warning, was given a if this 473 00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 2: happens again, then we're going to be talking about it. 474 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:55,640 Speaker 2: There was never a threat of a point in there, 475 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 2: and it wasn't the last time that there were fouls 476 00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 2: between these two. Luke this and I think this is 477 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:03,720 Speaker 2: a line, by the way, with Steve Willis's performance in 478 00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 2: the Gavonte Davis fight. I think it's an overall group 479 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 2: think by the commissions that they don't want to become 480 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 2: part of the story. But by not becoming part of 481 00:21:10,760 --> 00:21:14,159 Speaker 2: the story, they're becoming part of the story. This cannot 482 00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: be where there's eight or nine referees that are all 483 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 2: getting it wrong. This seems institutionalized, doesn't. 484 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: It though top to this point, long island, look top 485 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: of your head. Don't give me a random one. I'm 486 00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:26,840 Speaker 1: going to ask in a very specific way, what was 487 00:21:26,880 --> 00:21:30,920 Speaker 1: the last time you can remember a referee in MMA 488 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: taking a point from a fighter or an ipoke? Fuck man, 489 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: right right? 490 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 4: I don't know, but wait back to BC's point of 491 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 4: the group think thing. Yeah, I believe it was the 492 00:21:43,160 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 4: Ryan Span fighter. I could be wrong. There was something 493 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:48,800 Speaker 4: like three or four foules. It was Mark Smith refereeing. Yes, 494 00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:51,000 Speaker 4: I didn't even consider taking a point enough three or 495 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 4: four fouls. 496 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:53,480 Speaker 1: Its just ridiculous. I understand that this is not a 497 00:21:53,600 --> 00:21:55,719 Speaker 1: UFC issue. This is a commission. The commission issue has 498 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: nothing to do with UFC. I understand that if you 499 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,399 Speaker 1: look at the by law, it is not legal to 500 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:03,439 Speaker 1: poke another fighter in the eye, and I'm here to 501 00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: tell you that, practically speaking, it is entirely legal. Low 502 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 1: blows are the same thing, but it is entirely Somebody 503 00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: show me the proof that it. If you didn't know 504 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: anything about MMA and you just watched it, how would 505 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: you ever know other than the fact that the referee 506 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:21,720 Speaker 1: might say something but there's no penalty, like nothing, How 507 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: would you ever know that it was against the rules. 508 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: You might stop it because it's like an accidental thing 509 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 1: where you ever watched two teams in South America play 510 00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 1: soccer and then like a dog shows up on the 511 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: field and they have to pause the game, and ye 512 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: get it. That's how they treat ipokes. It is absolutely 513 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:41,760 Speaker 1: illegal on paper. It is practically one hundred percent legal, 514 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,159 Speaker 1: to the point you can do it multiple times in 515 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 1: a fight BC. You can even do it multiple times 516 00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: to your opponent in a round. 517 00:22:50,200 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 2: Yes, this is Mendel Cops third as Midel Coops scraped 518 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: the eyes of his opponent to set up the finish. 519 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 2: Not to mention the suhudo fight. Not to mention when 520 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 2: wide men blinded Bruno Silva, and on and on. It's 521 00:23:03,160 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 2: it's going to be weapons. So I want to say, 522 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 2: what's the thing that's going to finally make him the change? 523 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 2: And it's going to be a serious injury to an 524 00:23:08,600 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 2: elite fighter that can't fight anymore because of it. But 525 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,760 Speaker 2: is there anything else that could make it change? What 526 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,439 Speaker 2: about if teams start actually weaponizing this. Meaning it's the 527 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:20,959 Speaker 2: end of the second round, you realize you're on your 528 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,200 Speaker 2: way to being down two in a three round fight. 529 00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:25,359 Speaker 2: What's the first thing you're going to do? Kick him 530 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,040 Speaker 2: in the nuts to get a stoppage so you can 531 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: get some rest time and regroup and start to build 532 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 2: the momentum in your favor through following. And I know 533 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:36,119 Speaker 2: that we romanticize guys like Bernard Hopkins in boxing who 534 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,760 Speaker 2: have almost almost like a John Stocked in the NBA. 535 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 2: They they they've learned how to weaponize cheating in such 536 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 2: a smart way that we applaud them for it. Right, 537 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,240 Speaker 2: same thing. I guess maybe when you look back at 538 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 2: the pitchers in the seventies and eighties, something illegal and 539 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 2: you know, something illegal that they can use to pitch, 540 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 2: and we'd be like, well, they're smarter than everybody else. 541 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:57,200 Speaker 2: If you're not cheating, you're not trying. But dude, it's 542 00:23:57,240 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 2: going to set up strategic cheating on a regular if 543 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:03,159 Speaker 2: this doesn't get get snipped. And for as much as 544 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: we rail UFC, this not a UFC issue, I would 545 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 2: like Dana to be more vocal about it against it 546 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,800 Speaker 2: because I feel like his voice can lead to change 547 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 2: because we do assume at the end of the day 548 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 2: that a lot of these state commissions can be swayed 549 00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,399 Speaker 2: by money or they are the possibility of when I 550 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 2: don't mean direct bribes, I mean we got to keep 551 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:21,439 Speaker 2: this promoters happy so they bring their big fights to 552 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,560 Speaker 2: our state. If you don't think that's part of m 553 00:24:23,560 --> 00:24:25,760 Speaker 2: A right now, you're not reading the MMA draw about 554 00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 2: all these government contracts and how these cities are like 555 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 2: we need you TKO come bring your whole circus, the 556 00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 2: whole weekend. We got to drive up tourism and all 557 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,960 Speaker 2: that stuff. But it's it's bats. But in this case, 558 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 2: do you think this affected Victoria enough to say that 559 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 2: if those fouls hadn't happened, maybe it's a different fight. 560 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: Even if you had taken a point based on the 561 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: way the judges went, it still would have been it 562 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: still would have been delete say that one. So it 563 00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,959 Speaker 1: wouldn't have affected the outcome per se, at least in 564 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 1: this particular case. Although again hard to know what would 565 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: happen if you take a foul and blah blah blah. 566 00:24:56,440 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 1: But I just feel like this is this is I 567 00:24:59,160 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 1: feel like I remember when Anthony Rest in Peace, Rumble 568 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 1: Johnson got poked in the eye. Here we go, here's 569 00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 1: how here's how fucking old I am. By Kevin the 570 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:16,159 Speaker 1: fire Burns, right, he gets poked in the eye and 571 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,240 Speaker 1: it's a terrible fucking I poke. They have to. I 572 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: believe they did a rematch and then you know, at 573 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,000 Speaker 1: that point Rumble dispatched him viciously. But like, the point 574 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,880 Speaker 1: I'm trying to make is, can you look up when 575 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 1: that when their first fight was Long Island Luke the first, 576 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: the first Kevin the fire Burns and uh and Rumble 577 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,359 Speaker 1: Johnson fight. The what I'm trying to make is we 578 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 1: have literally, at best, made no improvements at all since then. 579 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:40,920 Speaker 1: And this is the part, like, again, you're right, it's 580 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: not a UFC issue. You're one hundred percent right, it's 581 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 1: a commission issue. 582 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 5: At the July of two thousand and eight. 583 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,040 Speaker 1: This is what the fuck I'm talking about, dude, We're 584 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: I mean, we're almost twenty years later. What the hell 585 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,600 Speaker 1: is happening? But this is what I wanted to say. 586 00:25:55,800 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 1: I remember after every single UFC event when Dana White 587 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: wanted Steve Mazagatti gone, and he would go to fucking 588 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 1: town on him. And I'm not even saying that's necessarily fair. 589 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: Mazagatti was not a good ref I don't know if 590 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: he deserved exactly got. 591 00:26:12,720 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 2: It hard to who Mario Yamasaki. 592 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 1: But although although his brother still does reffing when they 593 00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:19,720 Speaker 1: go back to the to. 594 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 2: This, he brought this into our lives. 595 00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:25,199 Speaker 1: Yeah he did the heart, he does that too. But 596 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,880 Speaker 1: what I wanted to say was I remember what an 597 00:26:28,880 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 1: effect it had when Dana did it accumulatively. I guess 598 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: I don't understand why he doesn't do it, other than 599 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 1: does he just not consider it to be a problem. 600 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 1: Do the people in charge, like we're here talking about 601 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: it like it's a huge problem. I don't know what 602 00:26:44,400 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 1: the evidence is that the people in charge consider it 603 00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 1: a problem and that by itself is a problem. 604 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,360 Speaker 2: I think that they just want to not be part 605 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,640 Speaker 2: of our shows. The next Monday of like, oh my god, 606 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 2: did you see her being took away a point? If 607 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: he wouldn't have taken that away, this fight could have 608 00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:59,880 Speaker 2: been whatever. But they're getting the opposite. So let's hear 609 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: Roman Duldese speak upon uh something that he seemed to 610 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 2: have benefited from these iPods. 611 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 7: I didn't try, you know, if there was something, I 612 00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 7: didn't remember it quite good because I wasn't trying to 613 00:27:11,320 --> 00:27:16,639 Speaker 7: do this. If it's happened, it's happened accidentally, and I 614 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 7: didn't want to do it to damage him or do 615 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:20,280 Speaker 7: something wrong to his eyes. 616 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, because I know a lot of times when it's 617 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:23,960 Speaker 8: hand fighting, you know, you're reaching out, You're trying to 618 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,160 Speaker 8: either paw at them, You're trying to either stop theirs. 619 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:26,960 Speaker 1: Strike before it comes. 620 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 8: It's just unfortunately when you do that, your fingers, your 621 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 8: fingers are extended out. 622 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:31,159 Speaker 2: There. 623 00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:32,520 Speaker 8: Is there any way to do that, you think with 624 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 8: maybe a closed fist or is it just something you 625 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 8: have to kind of just actively tell yourself going in there. 626 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 7: I was actively telling me after a couple of times 627 00:27:39,640 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 7: when Judge told me, I was sometimes you can't see 628 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 7: like I was doing like this in the middle of 629 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:46,320 Speaker 7: fight because I was, oh, I need to close them, 630 00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:49,000 Speaker 7: and I was doing like that because I'm not trying 631 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:50,919 Speaker 7: to do it and it happens. 632 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I don't think he's doing it 633 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 2: on purpose. The structure of how you do it, they've 634 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,360 Speaker 2: got to teach them, just like in the NFL tackling 635 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:03,919 Speaker 2: below the tackling shoulders down. It's got to start, and 636 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:05,600 Speaker 2: the only way to do that is policing it. So 637 00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:08,680 Speaker 2: that's that's that's that right there. We got some big 638 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: callouts though from Roman de Ledze, some big ones. We're 639 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 2: talking about former champions, Robert Whitaker, Israel out of Sonia 640 00:28:14,600 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: and if you look at this fight coming in the rankings, 641 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 2: it is time for Deleeda, now on a three fight 642 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 2: win streak, to really find out where he is. Let's 643 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 2: hear Roman talking about the future. 644 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:25,720 Speaker 7: All these guys need opponent, they need to fight somebody. 645 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 7: They need to have some opponent. I don't care if 646 00:28:29,119 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 7: somebody else will be from top five. 647 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: I'm also ready. 648 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:34,879 Speaker 7: I don't really care much. But I said more realistic 649 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 7: fights because both of them are from loose. They lost, 650 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:39,840 Speaker 7: and that's why I said, I don't really care who 651 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 7: will be from top five. 652 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 2: It's more just trying to get into that top. 653 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,239 Speaker 7: Five realistic, being realistic. Who is ready and who need 654 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,560 Speaker 7: opponent and who because there are some guys who really 655 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:52,640 Speaker 7: deserve to fight for title, like Kyu you mentioned like 656 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 7: in Mamo of also like there are a couple of guys, 657 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 7: good guys, and they are waiting there in the line 658 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:01,880 Speaker 7: if they will give me the guys. I'm ready anyway. 659 00:29:02,400 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 7: But there are more realistic fights, and that's why I 660 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 7: said these names Both of these guys have good name. 661 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:14,440 Speaker 7: More important for me the name of course, Adisania maybe 662 00:29:14,480 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 7: was more on the top, and it will be better 663 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 7: for me for my name to fight Adisania. But we 664 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 7: tak it also was champion. He's well skilled, very good fighter. 665 00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:28,120 Speaker 7: It's not about like about personality or something. It's all 666 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 7: about name and quality of opponent, and Adisania will of 667 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 7: course will be better if we're telling about. 668 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:38,240 Speaker 1: More loud name. Of course. 669 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 2: Well look, let me update you on the rating is 670 00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,400 Speaker 2: heading into this fight. The leads was eleven, victory was eight. 671 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: Okay. 672 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,920 Speaker 2: The champion, of course is DDP. Number one is im Evove, 673 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 2: he'll number two is Strickland. Three is the man who 674 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 2: we think is getting next, hamzat Chamaiev and then four 675 00:29:55,360 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 2: and five are Adisania and Whittaker. So if de Leeds 676 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 2: a number eleven beats number eight and he's looking for that, 677 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: I really feel like either of those names are kind 678 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 2: of perfect right now. 679 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: So just when quick clarification, you're basically right, Deleds is 680 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 1: sitting at twelve as we currently speak, that obviously eleven, 681 00:30:14,680 --> 00:30:17,160 Speaker 1: but you know, basically right there, and you're right, victory 682 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 1: sitting at eight. So Let's assume that he bumps to eight. 683 00:30:20,960 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 1: What is he and Whittaker four and five? 684 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 2: They don't have fights right now? They don't, so is 685 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:28,560 Speaker 2: he's coming off losing streaks? Yep, Witker is coming off 686 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 2: of uh what was his last outing? So he loses 687 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 2: Tom he needs. 688 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 1: A research and by the way, that was a bad stoppage. 689 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: Maybe it was a good stoppage, but a bad loss. 690 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 1: And is he got smoked by. 691 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 2: So I'm down with either of those. 692 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 1: MMA. 693 00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 2: Twitter seems to think that Delija is going to be 694 00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 2: headlining a five rounder against Strickland and the Apex coming up. 695 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: That's also possibly what is the right fight. 696 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 2: To reward him for three in a row and a 697 00:30:51,920 --> 00:30:53,080 Speaker 2: victory over a top ten hand. 698 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 1: You know, listen, if if he can get the easy 699 00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,280 Speaker 1: fight in the Whittaker fight, he's smart to call him out. 700 00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: There's certainly nothing wrong with trying to call your shot. 701 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,000 Speaker 1: The problem is, and he's right, Kyle Bohalio is sitting 702 00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:05,240 Speaker 1: at six, but he might have business inside the top five. 703 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 1: Here's the problem. And I don't think it's a bad 704 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 1: fight necessarily, but it's not super sexy. Cannon Ear just 705 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: had a great wines and he's sitting at seven so 706 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:17,560 Speaker 1: and they haven't fought, right, and I don't not recently, right. 707 00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 4: They have not fought. But I was saying, that's the 708 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,320 Speaker 4: fight to make, dude, they are going to headline the 709 00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 4: Apex like UFC Vegas one. 710 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 2: I just like the fight. Though, I do like the fight. 711 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 1: Like I said, I just feel like you couldn't go 712 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: wrong with easier Whittaker. Certainly again, Bohalio's probably got a 713 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: date up there. But the Cannoneer factor, cannon Ear, you know, 714 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 1: that was a tough ass win in his last fight. 715 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: This was a tough win for him in this fight. 716 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 1: I just feel like they're made for each other for 717 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 1: the especially if it's gonna be an APEX, right. The hard question. 718 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: Rank those possible three opponents Whittaker, Adasania, Cannoneer in terms 719 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 2: of difficulty for Roman or just in terms of like 720 00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 2: could he beat them, because I'm not sure yet on 721 00:31:56,880 --> 00:32:00,240 Speaker 2: Cannonear and even though Whitaker and Asiani are coming off 722 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 2: of defeats, I just don't think the leads is on 723 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:02,960 Speaker 2: their level. 724 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: I think all of them are took pretty tough. I'd 725 00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 1: probably say Whittaker is the toughest because he's just gonna 726 00:32:10,760 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: be a little harder to hit. Is He appears a 727 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:14,920 Speaker 1: little bit more hitable these days, unfortunately. 728 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 2: But Cannoneer was willing to brawl. 729 00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the other part too. Cannoneers can be hit, 730 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 1: but he'll just stand in the pocket with you. And 731 00:32:21,040 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 1: what were you gonna say? 732 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 4: I was just gonna say. 733 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,560 Speaker 5: Cannon is also forty plus, so he's got to. 734 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: Be the most Yeah, but does he look forty plus? 735 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter he looks no, No, what I'm saying. 736 00:32:28,320 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 1: I mean, like like bodybuilding, I mean like when he performs, 737 00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: does he look forty plus? You know what I mean? Right? 738 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,960 Speaker 4: But if we're comparing to Whittaker or is he, Cannoneer 739 00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 4: is definitely the easier fight for sure. 740 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:39,959 Speaker 2: Sure, and the style wise if he brawls. But if 741 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:40,480 Speaker 2: they brawl that. 742 00:32:40,760 --> 00:32:42,440 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, styles make fights like That's all 743 00:32:42,480 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 1: I mean. In some ways it's an easier fight. In 744 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:45,640 Speaker 1: some ways it's slight depending on how he takes it, 745 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 1: a bit of a riskier fight point taken. I mean, 746 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: Cannoneer has not had the career that either Whittaker or 747 00:32:50,680 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 1: is He has had. But I just feel like cannoneer 748 00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: the leeds A. That's that's where we're headed on all 749 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 1: this stuff, all right. 750 00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 2: I think where we're headed in Topic number two is 751 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 2: finding if there's more room and Luke's under pants for 752 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 2: new fighters. Here we go. Topic number two is your 753 00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: UFC Apex undercard from the fight night one oh four 754 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 2: over the weekend. Let's just skip right down to the 755 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:12,479 Speaker 2: fighter that Luke Thomas told you to watch for and 756 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 2: told you how his wife would have pronounced his name. 757 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 2: This is Kevin Vayaishos. 758 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 1: Not bad, that's not as close. 759 00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 2: First round TKO stoppage over Choi sung Wu, twenty three 760 00:33:28,040 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 2: years old from Argentina, So you know he's here to 761 00:33:30,640 --> 00:33:33,880 Speaker 2: be a gaucho, steal your girl and knock you out. Luke, 762 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 2: just how impressive was this? And if not him, we'll 763 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:40,760 Speaker 2: get to who else impressed you on a card that 764 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 2: did produce nine finishes across the board. But let's stay 765 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 2: with Argentina's Vashos That cracking overhand, right? And is this 766 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:50,160 Speaker 2: his second UFC fight? 767 00:33:50,400 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 1: First first, because second Contender series Fighten series. 768 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 2: Was before that, Like, are we ready to kind of 769 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 2: catapult a guy like this? 770 00:33:57,160 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: Man? I just gotta say I so I mentioned it before, 771 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,840 Speaker 1: or MMA on point put out a video talking about 772 00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 1: how much older everyone in the UFC is getting, in 773 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:05,920 Speaker 1: particular to champions, but not exclusively them, right, and we 774 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: talked about this with the lightweight guys. It's just a 775 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:11,280 Speaker 1: fact that lightweight contenders and lightweight champions are now older 776 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: than they ever have been. This is not a lightweight fight, 777 00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 1: this is a featherweight contest. But the point I'm trying 778 00:34:15,640 --> 00:34:19,600 Speaker 1: to make is that's true more broadly anyway. So the 779 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,239 Speaker 1: reason I bring that up is when I see a 780 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,600 Speaker 1: twenty three year old kid who is still raw and 781 00:34:24,640 --> 00:34:29,760 Speaker 1: at times a little reckless, but clearly has some real 782 00:34:30,120 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 1: awesome ability, and in particular the ability we just talked 783 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,240 Speaker 1: about what victory doesn't have the ability to turn defense 784 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 1: into offense, to slip and counter, which is exactly what 785 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: he did. Now. To be clear, CHOI was coming into 786 00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: this fight with a heavy heart. His mother apparently had 787 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 1: passed away a month ago. God only knows how much 788 00:34:47,239 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: that could have been a real obstacle to performance here. 789 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,720 Speaker 1: And so you know we are dealing with someone in again. 790 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:56,879 Speaker 1: You can say by a host, you can say, as 791 00:34:56,920 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 1: my wife would say, by Jay hoss or you can 792 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:01,359 Speaker 1: do like the Argentines would say, which is chejos. 793 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:03,560 Speaker 2: I have to ask Martine Botter. 794 00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 1: So did you hear it? By the way, I have 795 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,239 Speaker 1: to say this, Brendan Fitzgerald, did you hear how he 796 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:08,839 Speaker 1: pronounced it? 797 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:11,560 Speaker 2: I know, but I saw your tweet praise yes, so I. 798 00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: Don't understand this. They're the only ones who do this, 799 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,800 Speaker 1: the Argentines. The double l. In Spanish, you most commonly 800 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,000 Speaker 1: hear it as a why an English why so vye host. 801 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:23,760 Speaker 1: That's how you commonly hear it. In places like in Colombia, 802 00:35:23,800 --> 00:35:25,440 Speaker 1: they'll put a j on it, like an English day, 803 00:35:25,440 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: so it's about jejos. The Argentines make it a shah sound, 804 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:31,680 Speaker 1: so they say by sche host. They don't say metagine, 805 00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,840 Speaker 1: they say medicine. Okay, it looks like medelean medellan, but 806 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 1: it's metagene or Columbia's metagine to Argentines' medachine. I'm pointing 807 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: out some Mike Krzyzewski bullshit right there.

I'm not going to take anything 827 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 4: away from the guy, but we have to factor in 828 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,920 Speaker 4: song will Troy he was finished in three of his 829 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 4: last four. 830 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,000 Speaker 1: I understand, I understand. Listen, this was a UFC debut, 831 00:36:46,360 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: no more, no less. 832 00:36:48,040 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 2: All agree. 833 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: And the point is, and I said it at the 834 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: top of the question which you asked, which was is 835 00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:57,040 Speaker 1: he still raw and you know, somewhat reckless and obviously 836 00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: green generally even though he's got like fifteen fights. But 837 00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:03,160 Speaker 1: you in terms of legitimate tough competition pushing him deep 838 00:37:03,160 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 1: into rounds. He's very, very green. There's a lot that's 839 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,879 Speaker 1: unknown about him, but some of the way in which 840 00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:10,359 Speaker 1: he sets up attacks, some of the attacks he goes 841 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 1: for these overhand blitzer in particular wrestler, I think he 842 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 1: has some, but the striking is what I was most 843 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:19,440 Speaker 1: impressed by. And of course he's miles away from Ilio 844 00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 1: to Poria, of course, but there's a you can tell. 845 00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: What I'm trying to point out is these transcendent figures, 846 00:37:24,480 --> 00:37:26,759 Speaker 1: and it was you know McGregor before him and everyone else, 847 00:37:27,080 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: but you're seeing this evolution of more guys electing to 848 00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:34,200 Speaker 1: be pocket boxers, in particular some of the shorter guys 849 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,200 Speaker 1: who have to make up that reach because they have 850 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: to get closer to their opponent, the ones who are athletic, 851 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 1: who have natural ability, and though obviously you know he 852 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 1: works really hard as well, like this gentleman from Argentina. 853 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 1: It's creates for a very exciting prospect. And I do 854 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 1: think he is borrowing not explicitly from Tuporia, but again 855 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:57,160 Speaker 1: that long lineage of pocket boxers who have really revolutionized 856 00:37:57,160 --> 00:37:58,399 Speaker 1: that kind of style of late. 857 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:02,720 Speaker 2: Don't forget the original pocket Rocket pocket boxer Tyson Griffin, 858 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 2: who I used to love. 859 00:38:03,840 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 1: Tyson Griffin can remember well he beat Favor. He did. 860 00:38:07,800 --> 00:38:11,520 Speaker 1: Also remember Frankie Edgar made his UFC debut against Tyson 861 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: Griffin and no one knew who Frankie Edgar was, and 862 00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:17,000 Speaker 1: people were like, oh, Tyson Griffin is gonna run the 863 00:38:17,000 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 1: fucking table on this guy. And then Frankieger gave him 864 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 1: the business. 865 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:29,000 Speaker 2: Look Kevin, kevinjj uh. He even had Fiona. Is that 866 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 2: his teammate or just country woman Fiona meaning Eileen Perez 867 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: who's on a streak right, I do not know if 868 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 2: they're She was cage side and throwing shirts into the 869 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:41,400 Speaker 2: ring celebrating. So if he's got a little bit of 870 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 2: that spirit in him, then then we can be having 871 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 2: some fun in the future. Here at featherweight. He also 872 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:51,720 Speaker 2: seems to be a good guy. Here's kevinj uh okay 873 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:54,359 Speaker 2: being really nice here. So Damon Martin would tweet out 874 00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 2: that Kevin va Hosts uses his post fan interview to 875 00:38:57,239 --> 00:38:59,759 Speaker 2: advocate for Song Wo Choi to get another fight in 876 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,360 Speaker 2: the U after he still showed up to compete despite 877 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,120 Speaker 2: suffering the personal loss prior to the event. What a 878 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 2: freaking class act. Kevin would quot tweet that and say 879 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,600 Speaker 2: Choy lost his mother less than a month ago and 880 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,319 Speaker 2: still fought me. My heartaches for him. I really hope 881 00:39:13,320 --> 00:39:17,160 Speaker 2: he gets another shot in the UFC. That's a good 882 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 2: guy move, and I don't think we see enough of 883 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,680 Speaker 2: that in this non bousheeto cage. Okay, you know what 884 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 2: I'm saying.

But vay Jos would also talk 889 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,400 Speaker 2: about what he wants here and moving forward, how quickly 890 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 2: they want to throw him in there with some big names. 891 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:43,319 Speaker 9: Nestley, I'm on a cloud right now, Like truly, I 892 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 9: can't remember, like what hand I hit him with, how 893 00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 9: I knocked him out, like what round it even ended in. 894 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 9: It just all like surreal and I sacrificed so much. 895 00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:57,279 Speaker 9: I went to Brazil for five weeks to do my 896 00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:03,000 Speaker 9: camp and no, I'm just I'm on my cloud right now. Yeah, 897 00:40:03,080 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 9: there's definitely one person on my mind. We're at different 898 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,400 Speaker 9: stages in our career. Right now, he's uh, he's on 899 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:11,640 Speaker 9: the five fight win streak. That man's name is John Silva. 900 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,600 Speaker 9: I want to fight him because I want to fight 901 00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 9: the best. I want my rematch with him, and I'm 902 00:40:16,600 --> 00:40:18,439 Speaker 9: gonna be the one that takes the title from him. 903 00:40:19,239 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 9: So whatever comes, I'm going to eat here. 904 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 2: That's good. 905 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 9: And then when I get back to Argentina, dude, yeah. 906 00:40:25,600 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 1: Talking about talking about eating Argentinian foods. 907 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 2: Kevin Vaichios versus Gian Silva. 908 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:33,239 Speaker 1: So they thought already this is is one of these Yeah, 909 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 1: that's I mean, that's a weird one that you are 910 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,600 Speaker 1: doing that. Uh, they thought already Silver won. But remember 911 00:40:40,160 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 1: but remember Kevin was twenty one at the time. That's 912 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 1: what I mean. 913 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:45,440 Speaker 2: He's so confederation is this No? 914 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 1: No, they were in Contender series. 915 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,799 Speaker 4: Oh right, the series won a round on all three generals. Y. Yeah, 916 00:40:51,040 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 4: so its close. 917 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 1: So the point I'm trying to make is it was 918 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:56,359 Speaker 1: he's this is my whole point. Everything's coming to him 919 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 1: a little bit early. He's a little bit raw, he's 920 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:03,000 Speaker 1: very young, but he's got some possibilities. And what I 921 00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,760 Speaker 1: love is he's right. Silva is moving on ahead Silva's 922 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 1: gonna be fighting obviously Bresce Mitchell UFC three fourteen. But 923 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: I like how he's got this long range kind of 924 00:41:11,120 --> 00:41:13,759 Speaker 1: target he's getting after and if he keeps moving up 925 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:16,279 Speaker 1: by the time that they do fight again, dude, it's 926 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 1: gonna be it's gonna be electric. I can't wait for it. 927 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 2: I forgot that they had fought in the Contender series. 928 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 2: That was part of our storyline coming in for these 929 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 2: two fights. But uh, interesting to that rematch will be. 930 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:30,160 Speaker 2: It'll be It'll have a Mahachev saik In type of 931 00:41:30,160 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 2: backstory to it. 932 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:31,920 Speaker 1: And I like those a little bit. 933 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:35,000 Speaker 2: That's fight early in your career, you know which which Also, 934 00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 2: we just saw a middleweight with Fluffy and the other guy. 935 00:41:37,520 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 2: I remember that fight. It was sloppy, but it was 936 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 2: a friend Allen. 937 00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:43,480 Speaker 1: Yes, although he was as we talked about, Fluffy was 938 00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:43,920 Speaker 1: messed up. 939 00:41:44,200 --> 00:41:45,000 Speaker 2: Yes, that is true. 940 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,640 Speaker 1: See what about you? Who did you do think stood out? 941 00:41:48,440 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 2: I did enjoy this card long. I'll look called it great. 942 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:52,800 Speaker 1: I think it's a little strong. 943 00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:53,839 Speaker 2: That felt a little bit. 944 00:41:53,840 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 4: There was a good card. 945 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: It was a good card. I agree with that. 946 00:41:56,080 --> 00:42:00,200 Speaker 2: Well, let's talk about cheety uh and Jikwani against Elaizu 947 00:42:00,880 --> 00:42:04,440 Speaker 2: Zeleski Dosanto's that's a mouthful. He gets the second round finish. 948 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 2: It was pretty pretty gnarly, pretty brutal, but it felt 949 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 2: like a escalation of the run he's been on. 950 00:42:10,080 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: He did Misswaight. We do have to account that he 951 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 1: did Misswaight, and not terribly, but he did miss it. 952 00:42:15,239 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: He wanted to cut his hair. That wouldn't let him. 953 00:42:17,280 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 1: I thought he looked great all things considered. It was 954 00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 1: still it was back and forth early, like, yeah, he's 955 00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:26,719 Speaker 1: probably he's been kind of competing, you know, in the 956 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: shadows of the UFC in a weird way, and I 957 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: think now he's kind of earned maybe like a pay 958 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:33,960 Speaker 1: per view slot or some kind of opportunity on a 959 00:42:33,960 --> 00:42:36,560 Speaker 1: bigger card against a bigger name. He's sort of proven 960 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 1: at this point he can do well. I mean, I'm 961 00:42:39,840 --> 00:42:41,360 Speaker 1: not sure there are some limits to it, but in 962 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:44,520 Speaker 1: any event, this was a great performance and building off 963 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:45,960 Speaker 1: of it I think is something he's earned. 964 00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,759 Speaker 2: We were looking out for demand black share against Cody 965 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:49,920 Speaker 2: Gibson here at Vandamwaight. 966 00:42:50,040 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: You know what, Cody Gibson fought pretty good. 967 00:42:51,719 --> 00:42:53,440 Speaker 2: Well, He's you could see he's like in the best 968 00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:55,920 Speaker 2: shape of his careers, got new tattoos like he's going 969 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:57,879 Speaker 2: for it, and he went for here. But he did 970 00:42:57,880 --> 00:42:59,920 Speaker 2: get submitted, and it wasn't after it was after having 971 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 2: a lot of success too. So how big of a 972 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,320 Speaker 2: win for black Sheear? And as I think we're inciting 973 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 2: insinuating here that this isn't a it's not gonna and 974 00:43:08,200 --> 00:43:11,040 Speaker 2: Gibson's run, you know, he's he's still here. 975 00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 1: I thought, Gibson again credit to demon Black Scheer. He 976 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:17,120 Speaker 1: was the sharper guy down the stretch. And also it 977 00:43:17,160 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 1: looked to MEBC when they were tying up, there was 978 00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:22,200 Speaker 1: a clear physical advantage for black Sheear. He just looked 979 00:43:22,200 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 1: to be stronger, more athletic. And that's okay, But dude, 980 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 1: Cody Gibson is such an interesting story. He went to 981 00:43:28,239 --> 00:43:30,200 Speaker 1: the UFC a lot I did. I think he fought 982 00:43:30,239 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 1: Manny Gamborian back in the day, and you know had 983 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 1: to kind of you know, muddle around on too. 984 00:43:36,719 --> 00:43:36,879 Speaker 10: Yeah. 985 00:43:36,960 --> 00:43:38,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, And he had to kind of muddle around in 986 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,480 Speaker 1: the regional scene. He was a history teacher. I think 987 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,560 Speaker 1: he still might be in high school and now he's 988 00:43:43,600 --> 00:43:46,560 Speaker 1: back in the UFC, and I think he's very much 989 00:43:46,600 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 1: cleaned up his technique. He's much more well rounded, but 990 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: he's a little bit older at thirty seven years of age, 991 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: I believe, and Black Scheer is quite skilled and as 992 00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:56,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned, not just very skilled, but I thought there 993 00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 1: was a real physical difference between them. So I don't 994 00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:01,640 Speaker 1: think there's really any shit in this performance by Cody Gibson. 995 00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 1: But definitely another great win for Demon Black share two 996 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:05,200 Speaker 1: in a row. 997 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 2: Now for Alexander Hernandez, a guy at lightweight who we 998 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:10,400 Speaker 2: always think is better than the amount of losses that 999 00:44:10,480 --> 00:44:12,440 Speaker 2: he has, but he can make mistakes. He can be 1000 00:44:12,600 --> 00:44:15,080 Speaker 2: hit or miss. How did you score that competitive fight 1001 00:44:15,080 --> 00:44:15,800 Speaker 2: with Kurt Holiba? 1002 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:18,920 Speaker 4: I had a twenty nine to twenty eight for Hernandez. Yeah, 1003 00:44:19,000 --> 00:44:20,879 Speaker 4: thirty twenty seven is absurd, thirty twenty seven. 1004 00:44:21,280 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 2: It was a very competitive fight. 1005 00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,520 Speaker 1: I thought. I thought there were definitely Here's what I thought. 1006 00:44:25,560 --> 00:44:30,239 Speaker 1: I thought Hollibah was better through big portions. Takedowns failed him, right, 1007 00:44:30,280 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: he couldn't he couldn't defend the takedown, and underneath he 1008 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,560 Speaker 1: just couldn't necessarily do a whole lot. And I'm gonna 1009 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:38,440 Speaker 1: say this, there was punctuated moments where you could definitely 1010 00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 1: see Hernandez surge back like reclaim the round. So for 1011 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 1: that reason, I actually thought it was a pretty good 1012 00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:47,600 Speaker 1: performance from Hernandez. I did. 1013 00:44:47,680 --> 00:44:50,440 Speaker 2: I thought it was mature. Yes, he's always in like 1014 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,040 Speaker 2: third team, all body shape. 1015 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,160 Speaker 1: He just had oh my god. But he just had 1016 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 1: like the weirdest UFC start where he he just kao's 1017 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 1: Darry Yush he beats oam and you're like, holy fuck, 1018 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 1: this guy came out. Yeah, and then he called he 1019 00:45:03,960 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: called Don Seroni day drinking Don, and it was bad 1020 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,719 Speaker 1: news after that. But to the point he this is 1021 00:45:09,719 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 1: a guy who you can tell has been in the 1022 00:45:11,719 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: gym working and at least it paid off. 1023 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,200 Speaker 2: Here are we allowed to shout out Waldough Corteza Costa 1024 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:20,359 Speaker 2: on four straight heavyweight wins. That was not a great 1025 00:45:20,560 --> 00:45:23,440 Speaker 2: against Ryan Span who he. 1026 00:45:23,400 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 1: Didn't look great. No, he didn'tok great, he didn't look great. 1027 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:27,120 Speaker 2: Look and he went down weird on that. I know 1028 00:45:27,160 --> 00:45:29,080 Speaker 2: it was. The replay would show it was a short 1029 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:31,239 Speaker 2: shot that turned his chin. Yeah, but when you're watching 1030 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 2: in real time, it kind of looked like he just feed. 1031 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,080 Speaker 1: Failed for Riegoti. Yeah, it didn't go great and he 1032 00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:37,439 Speaker 1: did get beat hard on the ground. Yeah, I thought, 1033 00:45:37,480 --> 00:45:39,480 Speaker 1: I thought he was going to have a speed advantage, 1034 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 1: and he looked slower than did Did you feel he 1035 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 1: looked faster? He looked faster than me at all? 1036 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:48,400 Speaker 2: Such, this is such a little level of combinations, like 1037 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,160 Speaker 2: that's where the heavyweight division is. That it's where it's 1038 00:45:50,239 --> 00:45:52,520 Speaker 2: usually at. To be fair, they there's not a lot 1039 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:55,440 Speaker 2: of consistency there, bandam Waite. Carlos Vera did get a 1040 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 2: bonus afterwards for that first round submission. 1041 00:45:57,360 --> 00:45:59,720 Speaker 1: To fifty BJJ at a false Church, Virginia. 1042 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:02,680 Speaker 2: Carl was it Josiah's musasa? Is that how he says 1043 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 2: the point? 1044 00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,600 Speaker 1: Yes, he got hit with the fade away and then 1045 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:07,400 Speaker 1: the he comes over the top when you're not looking, 1046 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,040 Speaker 1: and then he took his back and then he had 1047 00:46:09,080 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 1: to switch the grip a couple times, but he got 1048 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 1: it on the joke did you do the hole? 1049 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:17,320 Speaker 2: He's Brazilian, so I'm gonna bet him by submission He's Ecuadorian. Actually, wow, 1050 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:18,439 Speaker 2: I take that back. 1051 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 4: He looked like shit, I gotta say until he got 1052 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,319 Speaker 4: that finished. Also, biggest dog on the card. He was 1053 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:24,680 Speaker 4: like plus five fifty cash. 1054 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, but he showed up. When I'll say this to 1055 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,280 Speaker 1: finish off with that smooth ass back take. That was nice. 1056 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:32,120 Speaker 1: That was real slick. 1057 00:46:32,600 --> 00:46:34,640 Speaker 4: His ground game is no joke, but he kept pulling guard. 1058 00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:35,839 Speaker 4: I don't know he has Ryan Holme. 1059 00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 1: Dude. Look the fifty to fifty guys, they believe in 1060 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 1: the guard, you know what I mean? And I understand that. 1061 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:41,120 Speaker 1: You know. 1062 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:43,080 Speaker 2: All right, let's talk about these ladies that kicked off 1063 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 2: the card, not necessarily mess maybe about what this wind 1064 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:47,839 Speaker 2: does for them. But it was interesting to see back 1065 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 2: to back first round stoppages in women's fights. At Flyway, 1066 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:54,799 Speaker 2: Carly Judice knocked out Uniski du Ben and a lot 1067 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 2: of people were dming me Unieski picks as if I 1068 00:46:57,600 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 2: keep some like collection of women on the scale, you 1069 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 2: know what I mean. I'm like, yoh, like, can we 1070 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:04,520 Speaker 2: get some? No? Can we can we treat these with dignity. 1071 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 2: Then at Bantam Way, Priscilia Cachiera uh gave it to 1072 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:12,719 Speaker 2: Josie an Nunis and that was a smoke. Absolutely, It's 1073 00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 2: rare one punch. 1074 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,439 Speaker 1: I mean, Jessicon Drodge has given us a few of those, 1075 00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 1: but it's rare to see one punch KOs in women's mma. Again. 1076 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 1: I've been down on Women's MMA. I was very happy 1077 00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:25,399 Speaker 1: to see this. Congratulations to all the ladies. They performed great. 1078 00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 2: So this Fight Night card, which we sat on paper 1079 00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,320 Speaker 2: coming in to be very fair, we said the same 1080 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:34,040 Speaker 2: kind of jerks question we say a lot. Is this 1081 00:47:34,120 --> 00:47:36,600 Speaker 2: actually the worst of the of the X finite cards 1082 00:47:36,600 --> 00:47:39,880 Speaker 2: in terms of, you know, amount of non Wikipedia page entrance, 1083 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:43,319 Speaker 2: spillover of Dana White contender series and did we need 1084 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:45,440 Speaker 2: this main event main event? All those questions, even though 1085 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:48,520 Speaker 2: I enjoyed for most of this card and the main event. Well, 1086 00:47:48,640 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 2: UFC took that criticism and when they had a hot 1087 00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 2: streak here decided to go to social media and dunk 1088 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:58,400 Speaker 2: on the haters by saying fight Nights at the Apex 1089 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,040 Speaker 2: are so boring with the capitalized in lowercase, and then 1090 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:05,600 Speaker 2: it says make that nine finishes on the night. I 1091 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:09,320 Speaker 2: did enjoy the nine finishes. This was a great TV card. 1092 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,400 Speaker 2: There were great TV fighters on it, and there was 1093 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,920 Speaker 2: some fun back and forth. Not super high level, but 1094 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 2: some bangers, right, Not a ton to talk about in 1095 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,560 Speaker 2: future title contention, but at least you had a breakout 1096 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 2: performance from the Argentine. At least you had a couple 1097 00:48:21,520 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 2: of things going on here, But I don't think that 1098 00:48:26,239 --> 00:48:29,319 Speaker 2: has the impact and grattis that they think it does. 1099 00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 1: Okay, what's the issue with their tweet? 1100 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,319 Speaker 2: You're gonna have to do a lot more to fix 1101 00:48:34,360 --> 00:48:35,880 Speaker 2: the actual issue, right you know what I mean? Like 1102 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 2: any card you roll out could have that ability to 1103 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 2: be fireworks, and that's kind of why we tune in 1104 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 2: even when if we're getting angry here. And I'm not 1105 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:45,800 Speaker 2: saying don't celebrate that, but that was a pointed look 1106 00:48:45,880 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 2: back at the opposition or the opposing viewpoint, whether it's fans, 1107 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 2: whether it's media, whether it's whomever. As almost like a fu, 1108 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 2: how do you like me? Now? It's like the card 1109 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:58,360 Speaker 2: is still the card it was on paper. I just 1110 00:48:58,400 --> 00:48:59,640 Speaker 2: want them to know that, right. 1111 00:49:00,480 --> 00:49:02,759 Speaker 1: Well, I would have a couple of different responses. I 1112 00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 1: think the first thing I would say is I looked 1113 00:49:03,960 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 1: at some of the responses to that tweet, and a 1114 00:49:05,440 --> 00:49:07,919 Speaker 1: lot of people were like, yeah, great, but these guys 1115 00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,960 Speaker 1: should have been competing in front of a large crowd, 1116 00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:12,640 Speaker 1: not in front of you know, five donks sweep in 1117 00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:14,200 Speaker 1: a room. That was the first thing I saw a 1118 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:16,680 Speaker 1: lot of people complaining about. Now, is it true that 1119 00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:21,320 Speaker 1: we were probably let me. Here's the reality. The UFC 1120 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:25,480 Speaker 1: has so much resources that even their overflow can at 1121 00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:28,680 Speaker 1: times perform quite well. And this was one of those cases. 1122 00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:32,240 Speaker 1: And we were probably a little too negative heading into 1123 00:49:32,280 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 1: it about its potential for fun. There always is that 1124 00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 1: you have to take that seriously. By the way, sometimes 1125 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 1: these turn out to be like god awful. I mean, 1126 00:49:40,719 --> 00:49:42,879 Speaker 1: they can be both, but that's the point. It could 1127 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:44,919 Speaker 1: also be really fun and you got something really fun, 1128 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:47,359 Speaker 1: but it seem to come out and be like there's 1129 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:49,520 Speaker 1: no issue, see right. But what the thing I would 1130 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:52,960 Speaker 1: say is there was the guys at Topology were tweeting 1131 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,240 Speaker 1: about like which fight nights and which pay per views 1132 00:49:55,239 --> 00:49:58,800 Speaker 1: this year have yielded the most live traffic and interest, 1133 00:49:58,920 --> 00:50:00,919 Speaker 1: and of all the fight nights this year, this one 1134 00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:03,280 Speaker 1: was the lowest. And the point you have to understand 1135 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:08,000 Speaker 1: is when you the UFC has created a tier of content, 1136 00:50:08,600 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 1: It's not like these fighters aren't necessarily some aren't that great, 1137 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 1: but these ones, you know, there were many good ones 1138 00:50:14,040 --> 00:50:16,760 Speaker 1: on there. It's not that these fights don't have a place. 1139 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:19,320 Speaker 1: The question is do they belong with a premium brand 1140 00:50:19,960 --> 00:50:23,120 Speaker 1: that is just creating a tier of overflow content so 1141 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:25,400 Speaker 1: they can get more money from ESPN, is that what 1142 00:50:25,440 --> 00:50:27,520 Speaker 1: they should really be doing. And of course we've been 1143 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:29,399 Speaker 1: over this debate. Some people want that, some people don't. 1144 00:50:29,400 --> 00:50:33,520 Speaker 1: I understand. However, the proof is in, as Floyd might say, 1145 00:50:33,560 --> 00:50:37,320 Speaker 1: the putting, which is to say, the way in which 1146 00:50:37,360 --> 00:50:39,640 Speaker 1: you can judge a card is not by how good 1147 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:40,360 Speaker 1: it actually is. 1148 00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:40,879 Speaker 2: In the end. 1149 00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:43,839 Speaker 1: You can try that, but what you have to look 1150 00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 1: at is what are people doing with their time? And 1151 00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: when I worked at MMA Fighting, we would have this. 1152 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 1: I talked about it a million times. Now, this proprietary 1153 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,319 Speaker 1: software is everywhere, but at the time it was quite 1154 00:50:54,400 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 1: novel called chart Beat, and you could see who was 1155 00:50:57,040 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 1: coming into your site by the second and where they're 1156 00:51:00,200 --> 00:51:02,000 Speaker 1: going and how much they are paying attention. And that 1157 00:51:02,120 --> 00:51:03,719 Speaker 1: was the first lesson I got b seen and I 1158 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:06,160 Speaker 1: was like, oh wow, people do not watch Bellator. Holy shit. 1159 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,399 Speaker 1: You know, this card, as the guys a Typology said, 1160 00:51:09,400 --> 00:51:11,560 Speaker 1: had the lowest amount of traffic of any of the 1161 00:51:11,560 --> 00:51:15,600 Speaker 1: fight nights this year. If you create overflow content as 1162 00:51:15,640 --> 00:51:18,560 Speaker 1: the premiere brand, where you're just throwing fights together, throwing 1163 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 1: them in the apex, yeah, did it end up turning 1164 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 1: out pretty good? Credit to the fighters. It actually are 1165 00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:25,759 Speaker 1: not pretecting to the argument. But the point is is 1166 00:51:25,880 --> 00:51:28,280 Speaker 1: no one was there to watch it, either in person 1167 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 1: or online because there was no interest about it. 1168 00:51:31,480 --> 00:51:34,279 Speaker 2: That collections are so low at this point, it's where 1169 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,319 Speaker 2: we're at, So that just kind of showed it. Like 1170 00:51:36,360 --> 00:51:40,080 Speaker 2: this is always the question I have. Do the matchmakers 1171 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:42,359 Speaker 2: and the people that do this do they not know 1172 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 2: that it's gone down? Are they hand strung by the 1173 00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,439 Speaker 2: budget and what they're told and they can't tell us? 1174 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,640 Speaker 2: Or do we not know how hard it is to 1175 00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:53,160 Speaker 2: actually do that job and this is the best they 1176 00:51:53,200 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 2: can do? Because I think if we're going to be 1177 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:56,880 Speaker 2: the ones that have been complaining, we're looking at it 1178 00:51:56,920 --> 00:52:00,959 Speaker 2: as they're hamstringing them. They only have limit resources because 1179 00:52:00,960 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 2: there's so many dates to fill. That's probably the dictation 1180 00:52:04,160 --> 00:52:08,040 Speaker 2: of this direction right of downhill. You mix it with 1181 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 2: the Dana Wikeetender series. Nobody has Wikipedia page blah blah blah. 1182 00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 2: Where Fight Night's ever deep is also another argument I get, 1183 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 2: But this argument extends to pay per view main cards too, 1184 00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 2: By the way, right, it's not just the bottom of 1185 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:22,520 Speaker 2: APEX ones. Do you think the matchmakers if it was 1186 00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:25,680 Speaker 2: that like an opinion of them like like, nothing is wrong. 1187 00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:28,760 Speaker 2: You guys are the ones that have the bad expectation. 1188 00:52:28,360 --> 00:52:30,520 Speaker 1: Too, or who I'm gonna give them a halfway break. 1189 00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: We were wrong and we need to be careful about this, 1190 00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,920 Speaker 1: which is people are always like, oh, it's the ones 1191 00:52:36,960 --> 00:52:38,919 Speaker 1: that people don't pay attention to that are always good. 1192 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,000 Speaker 1: That is not true. I can't tell you how many 1193 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 1: times people are like, I'm not going to pay attention 1194 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,000 Speaker 1: to it, and then it also was bad. I mean 1195 00:52:44,000 --> 00:52:46,400 Speaker 1: that happens all the time. But as I said before, 1196 00:52:46,760 --> 00:52:49,560 Speaker 1: the UFC does have a point that if you are 1197 00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:52,280 Speaker 1: a hardcore fan and you do care about just turning 1198 00:52:52,320 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: it on, it is quite possible week to week you 1199 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:57,960 Speaker 1: could get a series of cards and fights from the 1200 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,120 Speaker 1: Apex itself that can very much over deliver. We really 1201 00:53:01,120 --> 00:53:03,759 Speaker 1: have to take that seriously, and we discounted that. I'm 1202 00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:04,200 Speaker 1: also I. 1203 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:06,040 Speaker 2: Don't think we're trying to say let's never use the 1204 00:53:06,080 --> 00:53:09,120 Speaker 2: Apex again, or that there's no value. There is an intimate, 1205 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:11,919 Speaker 2: banger TV friendly value. There just not as many. 1206 00:53:12,080 --> 00:53:14,000 Speaker 1: But to the point you raised, these fights should have 1207 00:53:14,000 --> 00:53:15,920 Speaker 1: been in front of an audience, and more to the point, 1208 00:53:15,920 --> 00:53:18,759 Speaker 1: there was no promotion for this at all. It's just 1209 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:21,440 Speaker 1: overflow content, and we're not the ones who treat it 1210 00:53:21,480 --> 00:53:24,360 Speaker 1: like overflow. They're the ones who treat it like overflow. 1211 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:26,799 Speaker 1: We take the cues from them. That's it. 1212 00:53:26,840 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 2: That's a fair point. That does kind of transition us 1213 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,600 Speaker 2: into topic number three and sort of the larger debates 1214 00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:35,560 Speaker 2: we've been having of late about the UFC and and 1215 00:53:36,160 --> 00:53:38,399 Speaker 2: you know, we did that last Friday in a very 1216 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 2: extended listen to the fans and try to find out 1217 00:53:41,680 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 2: if maybe we're not looking at things the right way 1218 00:53:44,360 --> 00:53:46,720 Speaker 2: about where the state of UFC is at this moment, 1219 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:49,800 Speaker 2: but where the state of the UFC's future broadcasting deal 1220 00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:52,840 Speaker 2: is getting interesting, according to a New York Post reporter 1221 00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:56,719 Speaker 2: who said in a recent ny Post podcast that for 1222 00:53:57,239 --> 00:54:00,480 Speaker 2: that media outlet, he's hearing not only is the UFC 1223 00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:03,120 Speaker 2: likely to sign with Netflix and their next TV deal, 1224 00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:07,640 Speaker 2: but that ESPN and UFC might be having a fractured relationship, 1225 00:54:07,680 --> 00:54:11,440 Speaker 2: with ESPN unwilling to air UFC events on their linear 1226 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:14,040 Speaker 2: Challenge channels and instead just putting it on the Plus 1227 00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:18,480 Speaker 2: and also pay per view bys being quote way down, 1228 00:54:19,040 --> 00:54:21,919 Speaker 2: how much do we believe that this even if it's 1229 00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:25,360 Speaker 2: true or false? Here, but this is a major, major 1230 00:54:25,400 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 2: report in a lot of ways, how much do we 1231 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:31,799 Speaker 2: believe it's true? But edged with that is does it 1232 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:32,600 Speaker 2: even matter in the. 1233 00:54:34,560 --> 00:54:38,080 Speaker 1: So if you haven't seen this podcast, I highly encourage 1234 00:54:38,080 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 1: you to do so. 1235 00:54:38,800 --> 00:54:41,240 Speaker 2: And does this make shop right for that conspiracy theory? 1236 00:54:41,320 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 1: What was his conspiracy theory. 1237 00:54:42,640 --> 00:54:46,239 Speaker 2: That ESPN was purposely messing with the system to make 1238 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:50,319 Speaker 2: UFC look bad to gain leverage in their window of negotiation, right? 1239 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:53,839 Speaker 2: And then maybe if this report is true, then then 1240 00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:56,320 Speaker 2: there's been an apathy built up where they're just so so. 1241 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:58,120 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a bunch of takeaways. I think the 1242 00:54:58,200 --> 00:55:00,560 Speaker 1: three biggest takeaways I had from that podcas and I'm 1243 00:55:00,560 --> 00:55:03,040 Speaker 1: gonna assess the question that you asked. The first one 1244 00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:05,719 Speaker 1: was that he's surmised and this is several people have 1245 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,680 Speaker 1: done this, but he surmised that the UFC is likely 1246 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:09,359 Speaker 1: to end to put Netflix, which would make a lot 1247 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:14,000 Speaker 1: of sense obviously. Two that ESPN doesn't have the same 1248 00:55:14,080 --> 00:55:17,680 Speaker 1: kind of loving feeling for UFC content. And one of 1249 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:19,399 Speaker 1: the ways you can tell that is because they don't 1250 00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:22,160 Speaker 1: typically air as much as they used to on ABC 1251 00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 1: or ESPN Linear Linear all the linear channels enters not 1252 00:55:24,800 --> 00:55:27,000 Speaker 1: on they're just giving them to the plus and then 1253 00:55:27,040 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 1: three that pay per view buys are down. Let me 1254 00:55:29,560 --> 00:55:33,399 Speaker 1: say this, it seems to me that one we haven't 1255 00:55:33,440 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: had this independently corroborated. I'm gonna hear to say that 1256 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,320 Speaker 1: the guy is lying or not truthful. 1257 00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:39,800 Speaker 2: And New York Post is a sensational outlet. 1258 00:55:40,239 --> 00:55:44,799 Speaker 1: However, New York Post is typically pro UFC. Yes, but 1259 00:55:44,920 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 1: it seems to me that both sides are leaking to 1260 00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:52,160 Speaker 1: the press. ESPN is leaking to the press to affect negotiations, 1261 00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 1: and I suspect UFC is leaking to the press to 1262 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:57,719 Speaker 1: affect negotiations. That's the first thing I'm gonna say, and again, 1263 00:55:57,920 --> 00:56:00,760 Speaker 1: we need to see if it's independently corroborated. The second 1264 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 1: thing I'm gonna say is, even if all of that 1265 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,239 Speaker 1: is true, I'm not saying it doesn't matter. But the 1266 00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:07,400 Speaker 1: UFC made more money in twenty twenty two than they 1267 00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:09,400 Speaker 1: did in twenty twenty one. They made more money in 1268 00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,399 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three year, they made more money in twenty 1269 00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,600 Speaker 1: twenty four every year, and I suspect they're gonna make 1270 00:56:13,640 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 1: more money this year too. So even if there are 1271 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:21,319 Speaker 1: those problems, it's not like, oh, we're we're facing, you know, 1272 00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 1: some kind of dire situation. They're flush with cash in 1273 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:28,960 Speaker 1: a way they quite literally have never been before. I 1274 00:56:28,960 --> 00:56:31,680 Speaker 1: think that's what I would say, But BC, this is 1275 00:56:31,719 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: the re I think where I come down on this. 1276 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,320 Speaker 1: I have had a sneaking suspicion, and I've been talking 1277 00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 1: about it with so many different people. It's just a 1278 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,960 Speaker 1: very basic question. Is MMA as popular as it was 1279 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:46,839 Speaker 1: in twenty sixteen now? On some level it can't be 1280 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:49,879 Speaker 1: because that was, you know, right before a sale. That's 1281 00:56:49,920 --> 00:56:52,200 Speaker 1: peak Connor, that's peak Rondo, which. 1282 00:56:52,040 --> 00:56:54,480 Speaker 2: Means there was a casual fan base that was stuck 1283 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:55,600 Speaker 2: to it that is not there right. 1284 00:56:55,520 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 1: Now, totally, totally. But the point I want people to 1285 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:02,800 Speaker 1: make is, on the one hand, the UFC has everybody 1286 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:06,160 Speaker 1: by the balls because they do control the industry. They've 1287 00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:09,280 Speaker 1: got most of the best fighters. Either you watch MMA 1288 00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,040 Speaker 1: with them or you basically just don't. There's really not 1289 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:15,960 Speaker 1: much of an option. At the same time, I've had 1290 00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:21,240 Speaker 1: a nagging feeling with anecdotal evidence that there's been a decline. 1291 00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 1: I've had a feeling with anecdotal evidence that something has 1292 00:57:24,840 --> 00:57:29,200 Speaker 1: been a little bit off. I cannot confirm this report 1293 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:31,600 Speaker 1: or what he said on this podcast This gentleman, I 1294 00:57:31,640 --> 00:57:34,320 Speaker 1: cannot say that, But what I would say to UBC is, 1295 00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:38,200 Speaker 1: if it is true, it would certainly explain a lot. 1296 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:39,800 Speaker 1: That's when I come down it would. 1297 00:57:39,960 --> 00:57:42,840 Speaker 2: But I think there are some nuances in questions within this. 1298 00:57:44,200 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 2: Do we agree that UFC is spreading itself too thin, 1299 00:57:47,240 --> 00:57:49,320 Speaker 2: that it's too watered down, that there's too much of 1300 00:57:49,360 --> 00:57:52,680 Speaker 2: a at every turn to pull every cent out of it? Yes, 1301 00:57:52,720 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 2: I think we all agree that. How much of that though, 1302 00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:59,080 Speaker 2: considering that the ESPN contract has been UFC's financial backbone, 1303 00:57:59,160 --> 00:58:02,240 Speaker 2: It's why again during the pandemic they pushed so hard 1304 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 2: to meet the minimum demands of that contract and then 1305 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,360 Speaker 2: by doing that, became the only game in town and 1306 00:58:07,400 --> 00:58:09,240 Speaker 2: brought in this whole new wave of fans that are 1307 00:58:09,720 --> 00:58:13,680 Speaker 2: passionate about it right now. But how much of that 1308 00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 2: is ESPN? Though saying we'd like this many dates because 1309 00:58:18,720 --> 00:58:21,480 Speaker 2: I thought a potentially great point was made by kid 1310 00:58:21,600 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 2: Natan Zach Arnold and the m May Draw podcast where 1311 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,880 Speaker 2: they said ESPN coming back into that deal and renewing 1312 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:30,440 Speaker 2: it midway through, extended it two more years and may 1313 00:58:30,520 --> 00:58:33,520 Speaker 2: have taken UFC out of the actual golden window when 1314 00:58:33,560 --> 00:58:35,600 Speaker 2: they would get the most money when their deal was 1315 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 2: up because streaming was on top. Now things are changing 1316 00:58:38,960 --> 00:58:43,040 Speaker 2: so quickly in the digital TV streaming battle that's going 1317 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,000 Speaker 2: on that if that's true that they did miss a 1318 00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:49,640 Speaker 2: window on there, we look back and be like, well, 1319 00:58:49,680 --> 00:58:51,640 Speaker 2: the ESPN is asking for these dates. It's kind of 1320 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:54,120 Speaker 2: when Dane is doing these interviews pitching TKO boxing, Everybody's like, 1321 00:58:54,120 --> 00:58:55,480 Speaker 2: how many fight cards a year are you going to do? 1322 00:58:55,480 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 2: How many divisions? And he keeps going, we got to 1323 00:58:57,480 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 2: get a TV deal first. Then we're going to find 1324 00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:00,960 Speaker 2: out what they want. If they want to show every week, 1325 00:59:00,960 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 2: we'll give them a show every week. That was actually 1326 00:59:02,360 --> 00:59:06,160 Speaker 2: what he said. So how much of this is because 1327 00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:08,920 Speaker 2: they're true? Boss? Is the ESPN deal because it keeps 1328 00:59:08,720 --> 00:59:12,000 Speaker 2: the structure, all the lights on and allows them to 1329 00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 2: be in position to make all this extra money? How 1330 00:59:14,600 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 2: much of that is because of the broadcasters want. So 1331 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 2: what I'm saying is, could there be a future if 1332 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:24,280 Speaker 2: the current run of pr and events and money hurts them? 1333 00:59:24,360 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 2: Or maybe, like Zach might, Arnold may have said, maybe 1334 00:59:26,640 --> 00:59:28,560 Speaker 2: it was maybe they got a little bit past that 1335 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 2: perfect window where they would have gotten whatever they asked for. 1336 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:32,919 Speaker 2: Is there a future where they can get a TV 1337 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,920 Speaker 2: deal that has less states that forces them if they 1338 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:38,160 Speaker 2: don't get the money they want to get after it 1339 00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 2: again and be that passionate driving promoter they used to be. 1340 00:59:42,080 --> 00:59:43,680 Speaker 1: Put up the tweet if you can't long island loop 1341 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 1: where somebody had summarized this, I don't know if you 1342 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:48,480 Speaker 1: can take off there, there you go. Here's what I 1343 00:59:48,480 --> 00:59:51,520 Speaker 1: thought was kind of interesting. They have quote UFC will 1344 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:53,720 Speaker 1: do everything in their power to get Netflix deal. Netflix 1345 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:55,080 Speaker 1: are not a fan of the pay per view model, 1346 00:59:55,520 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 1: but are flexible. I mean, I want to be clear. 1347 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 1: Even I've said this before, even if there are issues 1348 01:00:02,840 --> 01:00:04,880 Speaker 1: with the product, I feel like the UFC's next deal 1349 01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,800 Speaker 1: is going to be worth It'll be their most lucrative. 1350 01:00:07,480 --> 01:00:09,920 Speaker 2: Contract that'll get the bump they're looking for. No matter 1351 01:00:09,960 --> 01:00:11,760 Speaker 2: what of this reason, they want a billion a year. 1352 01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:13,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if they're gonna get a billion a year, 1353 01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:14,760 Speaker 1: but I do know that whatever they get is going 1354 01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:16,040 Speaker 1: to be bigger than the last ESPN. 1355 01:00:16,080 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 2: You think it'll be split or it'll be one deal. 1356 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:20,080 Speaker 1: That's the part I can't tell. Okay, that's the one 1357 01:00:20,120 --> 01:00:22,640 Speaker 1: I have no idea because I don't think Netflix wants 1358 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:24,120 Speaker 1: to do that pay per view. I think they want 1359 01:00:24,120 --> 01:00:29,560 Speaker 1: to have maximum access. But I don't know. I don't know. 1360 01:00:29,600 --> 01:00:31,520 Speaker 1: I don't know how that's gonna go. And again, if 1361 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:35,200 Speaker 1: you're right to the extent that the broadcaster says we 1362 01:00:35,240 --> 01:00:37,800 Speaker 1: have interest in I'm gonna make something up twenty five events, sure, 1363 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:43,080 Speaker 1: I still think that they would probably take another broadcast 1364 01:00:43,120 --> 01:00:44,880 Speaker 1: deal beyond that BC. And the reason why I say 1365 01:00:44,880 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 1: that is because they've just expanded the scope of what 1366 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:50,040 Speaker 1: they do so far. They're gonna want to sell that 1367 01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:52,960 Speaker 1: to somebody. Maybe Netflix doesn't actually buy it, and so 1368 01:00:53,000 --> 01:00:54,320 Speaker 1: you can say, oh, I'm just gonna pay attention to 1369 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:55,240 Speaker 1: the Netflix. 1370 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:56,640 Speaker 2: Shows that right. 1371 01:00:56,960 --> 01:00:58,479 Speaker 1: So the point being is saying, if you've got six 1372 01:00:58,560 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: to seven to eight hundred five, and I think they're 1373 01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:02,920 Speaker 1: closer to between six and seven, if you've got that 1374 01:01:03,000 --> 01:01:05,160 Speaker 1: many fighters, you need to keep them busy or you 1375 01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:09,360 Speaker 1: have to restructure your organization. I don't think they're going 1376 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: to restructure their organization. They're gonna find someone to sell 1377 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:13,760 Speaker 1: that to the question is whether or not that is Netflix. 1378 01:01:13,800 --> 01:01:17,320 Speaker 2: Well, if TKO ends up launching with the Canelo versus 1379 01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:19,400 Speaker 2: Bud Crawford fight, on Netflix. 1380 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:20,640 Speaker 1: They're gonna kind of downplay that. 1381 01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 2: I know, it feels like it's not part of our 1382 01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:25,360 Speaker 2: show today. But Turkey la Chek put out a video 1383 01:01:25,400 --> 01:01:28,160 Speaker 2: that was almost like coming back after the recent criticism 1384 01:01:28,160 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 2: that came out of the TKO boxing announcement, and it 1385 01:01:30,280 --> 01:01:31,960 Speaker 2: feels like both him and Dana are suddenly like. 1386 01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:33,680 Speaker 1: Well, you know a little bit, no, but I mean 1387 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,560 Speaker 1: more than that fight. Hub TV did a quick like 1388 01:01:36,840 --> 01:01:38,920 Speaker 1: ring side interview with the Callum Walsh fight with Dana 1389 01:01:39,440 --> 01:01:40,960 Speaker 1: and they asked him like, hey, are you going to 1390 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:43,040 Speaker 1: be part of this Crawford Canelo thing? And he's like, eh, 1391 01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,480 Speaker 1: Turkey's got commitments. He made it to be like a 1392 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: Turkey thing. He didn't even say him yeah. 1393 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:49,240 Speaker 2: I felt in that case that he was just trying 1394 01:01:49,240 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 2: to take the attention off because he wants it to 1395 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 2: be a big surprise. That was my thought. Okay, yeah, 1396 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:55,400 Speaker 2: but maybe it's not finalized yet, maybe it's still in 1397 01:01:55,440 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 2: a nego. 1398 01:01:55,920 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 1: Yeah fair, I don't I don't know how to assess that. 1399 01:01:57,760 --> 01:02:00,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we only know what we know. But you 1400 01:02:01,000 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 2: don't think that this bad PR stretch or this bad 1401 01:02:03,320 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 2: stretch of mark I mean, because here's the here's The 1402 01:02:05,360 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 2: point I wanted to make about, are they right that 1403 01:02:08,800 --> 01:02:11,240 Speaker 2: that things aren't on ESPN as much as that Sports 1404 01:02:11,240 --> 01:02:13,480 Speaker 2: Center is not putting out UFC features Every time I don't. 1405 01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:14,760 Speaker 1: Even know I watch Sports Center, I don't see I 1406 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:15,360 Speaker 1: don't see. 1407 01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:17,440 Speaker 2: It either when I do come across it, so that 1408 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:20,120 Speaker 2: that might be part of it. But how much of 1409 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 2: that is the fact that we're talking about the star 1410 01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:26,640 Speaker 2: problem and stars fuel the really big crossover fights. How 1411 01:02:26,720 --> 01:02:28,920 Speaker 2: much of that is the fact that they didn't deliver 1412 01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,919 Speaker 2: on Jones aspinall or Jones and Ghanu that Connor hasn't 1413 01:02:31,960 --> 01:02:34,120 Speaker 2: fought in forever. How much has that played a role 1414 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 2: in here, Because if those big fights would have been 1415 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,200 Speaker 2: made first, take's going to be talking about it, right, 1416 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:41,520 Speaker 2: and it's going to make this UFC feel not niche, 1417 01:02:41,640 --> 01:02:43,480 Speaker 2: not a high priced niche. It makes it feel like 1418 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:44,320 Speaker 2: it's mainstream. 1419 01:02:44,400 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 1: Do you remember when Kane Velaskiz fought Francis and Ganu 1420 01:02:48,000 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 1: and then as soon as that fight was over, they 1421 01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 1: threw it on ESPN to Sports Center, which was hosted 1422 01:02:54,600 --> 01:02:57,400 Speaker 1: by Aeriel Hilwani and Chail Sun and Live Wow. Do 1423 01:02:57,440 --> 01:02:57,960 Speaker 1: you remember that? 1424 01:02:58,040 --> 01:02:59,040 Speaker 2: I don't remember that, right? 1425 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:01,919 Speaker 1: I remember that distinct. What was the last fucking time 1426 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:04,000 Speaker 1: something like that. That might have been the last time 1427 01:03:04,040 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 1: something like that has happened. It just doesn't happen anymore. 1428 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:10,400 Speaker 4: I was the first national ESPN card. If I'm not mistaken, 1429 01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:11,400 Speaker 4: it could have been. 1430 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:13,440 Speaker 1: But the point is is, like, why didn't they repeat that? Like, 1431 01:03:13,480 --> 01:03:16,040 Speaker 1: they didn't go back to it. You know, it's just 1432 01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 1: been a thing that they tried once. I would imagine 1433 01:03:20,640 --> 01:03:24,040 Speaker 1: that the UFC and ESPN go ahead. Every time I 1434 01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:26,280 Speaker 1: see you lean over, like like the unibomber over. 1435 01:03:26,160 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 2: There you're talking about. 1436 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:32,680 Speaker 1: Okay, sorry about that. I would imagine that ESPN does 1437 01:03:32,720 --> 01:03:35,640 Speaker 1: want to stay in the UFC business, but I think 1438 01:03:35,960 --> 01:03:38,480 Speaker 1: certainly under vastly different terms than the first time. 1439 01:03:38,560 --> 01:03:40,520 Speaker 2: But I'm like, you know, chicken in the egg. Here 1440 01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:43,760 Speaker 2: is the fact that ESPN wanted so many dates forced 1441 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:46,120 Speaker 2: the UFC to water down their product, and this is 1442 01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:49,360 Speaker 2: the reality. Or are UFC holding some of these really 1443 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,720 Speaker 2: good fights for the next deal, because if you can 1444 01:03:51,760 --> 01:03:54,480 Speaker 2: offer I can get McGregor diz three, if you want 1445 01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:55,040 Speaker 2: to sign with me. 1446 01:03:55,120 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 1: Then also worth considering. You know, first of all, I 1447 01:03:57,880 --> 01:04:01,280 Speaker 1: do think that the fact that espnup so badly UFC 1448 01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:08,000 Speaker 1: through thirteen improves UFC's hand considerably, no matter what, I 1449 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:10,760 Speaker 1: think that they could be holding fights. But one thing 1450 01:04:10,800 --> 01:04:12,560 Speaker 1: to consider, and I have no idea what extent this 1451 01:04:12,640 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 1: is relevant. I remember after the Rebok deal collapsed and 1452 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:18,760 Speaker 1: there was like, you know, leaks from the Rebox side. 1453 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,600 Speaker 1: They had said, you know, the UFC brought in Matt 1454 01:04:22,680 --> 01:04:24,400 Speaker 1: Hughes and they brought in all these different guys and 1455 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:26,120 Speaker 1: they told us that the fighters were gonna love it. 1456 01:04:26,600 --> 01:04:30,080 Speaker 1: And then there was this massive blowback, and Rebok had 1457 01:04:30,080 --> 01:04:33,000 Speaker 1: said that they were caught by surprise. To what extent 1458 01:04:33,040 --> 01:04:35,520 Speaker 1: did the UFC prime the pump a little bit and saying, oh, 1459 01:04:35,560 --> 01:04:38,200 Speaker 1: we can definitely give you forty plus dates a year, 1460 01:04:38,760 --> 01:04:41,560 Speaker 1: no problem, And the ESPN was like, great, let's take it. 1461 01:04:41,840 --> 01:04:43,640 Speaker 1: And now they're like, okay, right, we need to pair 1462 01:04:43,680 --> 01:04:46,400 Speaker 1: that back a little bit, just over time. So the 1463 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:48,120 Speaker 1: point I'm trying to make is you're making it out 1464 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:50,640 Speaker 1: to be at least suggesting the possibility that it was 1465 01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:53,800 Speaker 1: ESPN saying we want these dates, right, And my hunch 1466 01:04:53,880 --> 01:04:55,600 Speaker 1: is there was a little bit of salesmanship on the 1467 01:04:55,640 --> 01:04:58,280 Speaker 1: side of UFC to say we can absolutely deliver it 1468 01:04:58,480 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 1: x plus. 1469 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:02,200 Speaker 2: You know, but you know, the Dana White contendersaries plays 1470 01:05:02,200 --> 01:05:04,920 Speaker 2: into that, everything plays into how the trends are going. 1471 01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:07,200 Speaker 2: But it certainly isn't a great trend for the company 1472 01:05:07,200 --> 01:05:08,880 Speaker 2: of Late despite the financial success. 1473 01:05:08,960 --> 01:05:11,200 Speaker 1: You say that, You say that, but dude, they are 1474 01:05:11,280 --> 01:05:15,360 Speaker 1: gonna sign a massive deal the next to me. The 1475 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:20,040 Speaker 1: next deal the UFC signs will be incontestably massive. The 1476 01:05:20,120 --> 01:05:22,240 Speaker 1: thing that I have a question about is not that one. 1477 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 1: It's the five to ten year mark from now where 1478 01:05:26,040 --> 01:05:28,720 Speaker 1: all of the chickens, if they don't change, will come 1479 01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:30,919 Speaker 1: home to roost. But we'll have to see how that goes. 1480 01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,560 Speaker 2: This is going to be a very interesting time coming up. 1481 01:05:34,560 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 2: If you're into the business side of this, it is. 1482 01:05:36,400 --> 01:05:37,560 Speaker 2: It is wild to see it. 1483 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:39,280 Speaker 1: It is wild to see I certainly agree with that. 1484 01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, we like great relationships on this show. Let me 1485 01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:44,920 Speaker 2: you ever see a great pregame preview of Late on 1486 01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:47,200 Speaker 2: Morning Combat?

But 1617 01:11:33,560 --> 01:11:35,280 Speaker 4: I was going to say thirty percent, like. 1618 01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:36,479 Speaker 2: You don't care about at all at all? 1619 01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,639 Speaker 1: No, But I mean you you agree that's a big fight. 1620 01:11:38,880 --> 01:11:40,800 Speaker 5: Sure, but I would have cared about it way more 1621 01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:42,320 Speaker 5: four or five years exactly. 1622 01:11:42,320 --> 01:11:43,960 Speaker 2: Okay, if you're the one, if he didn't caught up 1623 01:11:43,960 --> 01:11:45,920 Speaker 2: with pourier O Connor, Yeah, that would have been a 1624 01:11:45,920 --> 01:11:47,200 Speaker 2: good time to cash in that Nay fight der in 1625 01:11:47,240 --> 01:11:47,840 Speaker 2: that streequence. 1626 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:49,600 Speaker 1: All right, here's the one that I think is I 1627 01:11:50,680 --> 01:11:53,240 Speaker 1: give it a second to marinate. But I like this 1628 01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:55,559 Speaker 1: one at fifty five. And again, I have no idea 1629 01:11:55,560 --> 01:11:57,559 Speaker 1: if Nate wants to do fifty five. But if he 1630 01:11:57,600 --> 01:12:01,160 Speaker 1: does Max Holloway for the BMF title, what do we 1631 01:12:01,160 --> 01:12:03,240 Speaker 1: think about that? It's a title fight. You can do 1632 01:12:03,280 --> 01:12:06,360 Speaker 1: fifty five. They're gonna beat each other's fucking brains out. 1633 01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:07,360 Speaker 1: What is wrong with that fight? 1634 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:10,040 Speaker 2: Dude? This is like for all the if I don't care, 1635 01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:12,120 Speaker 2: I don't think UFC listens to our show and it's like, 1636 01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:13,760 Speaker 2: oh my god, the press is saying bad things about me. 1637 01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:15,280 Speaker 2: I think they're probably just like fuck the press like 1638 01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:18,600 Speaker 2: they always do. Yeah, but you want to give a 1639 01:12:18,640 --> 01:12:21,280 Speaker 2: gift back to the fans, dude, that's a you put 1640 01:12:21,280 --> 01:12:23,120 Speaker 2: that on top of pay per view for the BMF bell. 1641 01:12:23,200 --> 01:12:26,040 Speaker 2: It's just like, I feel like that'll recharge the h 1642 01:12:26,800 --> 01:12:29,679 Speaker 2: repump the primes, right, that'll re reget the Come. 1643 01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:31,000 Speaker 4: On, look, you have to weigh in on this one. 1644 01:12:31,040 --> 01:12:33,000 Speaker 4: I could get behind that. I think that's a good fight. 1645 01:12:33,120 --> 01:12:35,840 Speaker 4: I was gonna say, which Max is up there with that? 1646 01:12:36,360 --> 01:12:39,599 Speaker 1: Justin Gaegee, that's a good one too. 1647 01:12:39,800 --> 01:12:41,680 Speaker 4: That would be a scrap that's a good one too. 1648 01:12:41,800 --> 01:12:44,080 Speaker 1: Plus you could do that at one seventy. 1649 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 2: That's the heart. That's the hardcore fight fans version of 1650 01:12:47,360 --> 01:12:49,680 Speaker 2: the fight we just said, Holloway versus him is like this, 1651 01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:52,479 Speaker 2: everyone's tuning in and everyone loves both guys so much. 1652 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,080 Speaker 2: But the darker, hardcore version of that. 1653 01:12:55,000 --> 01:12:56,720 Speaker 1: Is that the reason I like the Holloway fight is 1654 01:12:56,720 --> 01:13:00,800 Speaker 1: because one, it's stylistically gonna be fucking awesome. Yeah. Two, 1655 01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,000 Speaker 1: I don't know if we've ever talked about these two 1656 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:04,479 Speaker 1: guys fighting or. 1657 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:07,800 Speaker 2: It's rare to get star power that big right now 1658 01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:08,320 Speaker 2: at this and. 1659 01:13:08,280 --> 01:13:11,439 Speaker 1: Then last but not least certainly it is for a title. Granted, 1660 01:13:11,439 --> 01:13:13,320 Speaker 1: you can call whatever you want about the title, but 1661 01:13:13,840 --> 01:13:15,559 Speaker 1: Nate's like, oh, I want to fight for a title. 1662 01:13:16,040 --> 01:13:18,040 Speaker 1: If the BMF title, which I know he fought for before. 1663 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:21,040 Speaker 1: Obviously you will see two forty nine against Tohem Maswadoal 1664 01:13:21,120 --> 01:13:25,440 Speaker 1: didn't get it. Here's a second, a second chance. Apologies, 1665 01:13:25,960 --> 01:13:27,559 Speaker 1: he has a second chance to get. 1666 01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,840 Speaker 2: It, and doesn't he claim they created it because of him? Yes, 1667 01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:32,760 Speaker 2: So this is this is storytelling. This is ww storytelling 1668 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:34,400 Speaker 2: right here. That is that's. 1669 01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:36,720 Speaker 1: Really I like that fight. I like that pretty good. 1670 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:38,680 Speaker 2: But the Gaichee one is gnarly. 1671 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,880 Speaker 1: The Gaichie one is devastating. That one is tough. 1672 01:13:40,920 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 2: Do you want nothing to do with another mazvit All 1673 01:13:43,120 --> 01:13:43,960 Speaker 2: fight or. 1674 01:13:43,960 --> 01:13:46,280 Speaker 1: Is there any scenario where you be they fought in MMA, 1675 01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:49,479 Speaker 1: they fought in boxing. The boxing fight, as we talked about, 1676 01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:52,400 Speaker 1: was surprisingly good. We gave him credit for it. I 1677 01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:53,439 Speaker 1: still give him one. 1678 01:13:53,320 --> 01:13:57,479 Speaker 2: One in the series. Like, Okay, if that's a pay 1679 01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:59,240 Speaker 2: per view main event, people are going to complain. But 1680 01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 2: imagine if that was like the third best fight on 1681 01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:03,240 Speaker 2: a loaded pay per view card, then you're. 1682 01:14:03,120 --> 01:14:05,759 Speaker 1: Like fine and you're like, oh yeah, I'm just thinking 1683 01:14:06,040 --> 01:14:08,040 Speaker 1: what do we do to meet Nate's terms to get 1684 01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:11,720 Speaker 1: him over to me? Holloway fifty five BMF. 1685 01:14:12,479 --> 01:14:16,720 Speaker 2: Let's talk about motivation though, willingness, which can waiver with Nate. 1686 01:14:16,840 --> 01:14:19,160 Speaker 2: Remember he fought Connor twice and it took three years 1687 01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:21,280 Speaker 2: off at the peak of his marketing, right like at 1688 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:23,960 Speaker 2: the point where he was a almost a household name 1689 01:14:23,960 --> 01:14:26,559 Speaker 2: because of the McGregor Rubb. Do you think that he 1690 01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:29,479 Speaker 2: was invigorat reinvigorated by this mosit All fight. Do you 1691 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:32,639 Speaker 2: think that he's looking at Okay, I got X amount 1692 01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:34,519 Speaker 2: of pay days left, Like what do you think I 1693 01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:35,840 Speaker 2: know Nate is different than all of us. 1694 01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:37,280 Speaker 1: So how do you think he's looking. He's going to 1695 01:14:37,320 --> 01:14:39,320 Speaker 1: be forty very soon. I'm not sure exactly when it is, 1696 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:43,599 Speaker 1: but it's imminent. And on top of it, remember he 1697 01:14:43,680 --> 01:14:46,440 Speaker 1: got sideways with Fan Meo. He was supposed to get 1698 01:14:47,400 --> 01:14:50,840 Speaker 1: ten million or more, and even the one million he 1699 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:54,280 Speaker 1: got he tragically gave back. Uh And so I don't 1700 01:14:54,280 --> 01:14:55,559 Speaker 1: even know what he got paid. 1701 01:14:55,400 --> 01:14:57,960 Speaker 2: Because that story disappeared. I have to believe that everybody 1702 01:14:58,000 --> 01:14:59,560 Speaker 2: got paid with a we're deserved. 1703 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:00,280 Speaker 1: I've not hit up his energy. 1704 01:15:00,400 --> 01:15:03,400 Speaker 4: That story resurfaced this week when Ryan Garcia was getting 1705 01:15:03,400 --> 01:15:05,320 Speaker 4: sued by Famio, saying they're still. 1706 01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:07,120 Speaker 1: In the lad I was about to say, so, this 1707 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,000 Speaker 1: is my point. That was supposed to be a big 1708 01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:11,599 Speaker 1: financial windfall that never materialized. Granted, he got the Jake 1709 01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:13,760 Speaker 1: Paul fight. I'm sure he got a good, pretty coin 1710 01:15:13,800 --> 01:15:17,000 Speaker 1: for that, the DS, excuse me, the the McGregor fights, 1711 01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:18,400 Speaker 1: I'm sure he got big money for that, even the 1712 01:15:18,400 --> 01:15:22,439 Speaker 1: Ferguson fight to an extent. But I suspect this is 1713 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:24,439 Speaker 1: a payday issue, and this is the point I want 1714 01:15:24,479 --> 01:15:28,600 Speaker 1: to make, Like if there's no real big payday associated 1715 01:15:28,880 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 1: like if Gachie had a title. I think Nate would 1716 01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:32,680 Speaker 1: take it. But without a title, it's like, what is 1717 01:15:32,720 --> 01:15:33,679 Speaker 1: the value to him? 1718 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:40,040 Speaker 2: There's no world where he fights is Lama Jever, there's 1719 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:42,760 Speaker 2: no like justification for that. Now, a guy like him 1720 01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,439 Speaker 2: wouldn't need justification because it's. 1721 01:15:44,360 --> 01:15:49,120 Speaker 1: Right, because that seems unlikely. I wouldn't bet on it, right. 1722 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:51,320 Speaker 2: Would he take it? Because he just said I want 1723 01:15:51,320 --> 01:15:52,400 Speaker 2: to be the champions? So what did he take it? 1724 01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:55,719 Speaker 1: Hed take it for a title? He take it? Yeah? 1725 01:15:56,439 --> 01:15:58,639 Speaker 2: Does he do better or worse than? Doesn't it worse? Right? 1726 01:15:59,439 --> 01:16:03,200 Speaker 1: I think Islam. We all love Nate Diaz, but I 1727 01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:06,799 Speaker 1: think Islam would win that handily. Yeah, yeah, dude, Again, 1728 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:09,200 Speaker 1: Islam is the number one pound for pound guy in 1729 01:16:09,240 --> 01:16:11,479 Speaker 1: the sport. I mean, what are we talking about? 1730 01:16:12,080 --> 01:16:15,040 Speaker 2: Okay, and now Patty's got a fight. But if Paddy 1731 01:16:15,120 --> 01:16:17,960 Speaker 2: didn't have a fight, would you have considered. 1732 01:16:17,600 --> 01:16:20,120 Speaker 1: That at all? Versus Patty? 1733 01:16:21,000 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 2: It's such a weird fight. 1734 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:23,960 Speaker 1: Okay, it's a weird fight. It's actually a good fight 1735 01:16:24,320 --> 01:16:25,840 Speaker 1: for a lot of reasons, not least of which is 1736 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:29,400 Speaker 1: it's generational. However, I have a feeling that Patty, because 1737 01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:30,840 Speaker 1: he might be at the peak of his Powers would 1738 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:35,680 Speaker 1: win and then we'd all be fucking devastated. And so 1739 01:16:35,840 --> 01:16:38,800 Speaker 1: for that reason, I have a hard time getting behind it. 1740 01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:41,600 Speaker 1: But I can't. I can't shit on the fight. It 1741 01:16:41,640 --> 01:16:44,679 Speaker 1: would not it would, It would solve a lot of problems. 1742 01:16:44,760 --> 01:16:45,559 Speaker 1: It would be a good fight. 1743 01:16:45,760 --> 01:16:48,559 Speaker 2: There you go. That was topic number four. Let's go 1744 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:49,599 Speaker 2: to topic number five. 1745 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:51,920 Speaker 1: And you guys are wrong. Diaz versus Iliot to Portia 1746 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:53,439 Speaker 1: would be good. You guys are fucking haters. 1747 01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:55,799 Speaker 2: No, I just think you do the McGregor. 1748 01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:58,040 Speaker 1: You're a fucking hater. That's what you are. 1749 01:16:58,080 --> 01:17:00,360 Speaker 2: You gotta at that point, you just do the McGregor fight. No, 1750 01:17:00,360 --> 01:17:02,719 Speaker 2: I don't name McGregor Diaz. I mean McGregor to Poria. 1751 01:17:02,800 --> 01:17:06,479 Speaker 2: I think that's the fight you that the UFC should 1752 01:17:06,640 --> 01:17:07,200 Speaker 2: cash in on. 1753 01:17:07,479 --> 01:17:07,760 Speaker 1: I don't. 1754 01:17:07,840 --> 01:17:10,000 Speaker 2: I'm not saying I want that. I'm saying they should 1755 01:17:10,080 --> 01:17:13,000 Speaker 2: cash in on that for their own good. Would you 1756 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:16,720 Speaker 2: enjoy that at all? Would there be any part of 1757 01:17:16,760 --> 01:17:17,960 Speaker 2: you that would get jazzed up? 1758 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:20,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, i'd be I'd be pretty I mean, that's a 1759 01:17:20,520 --> 01:17:23,200 Speaker 1: that's a relevant fight. You know, seist maybe seis as 1760 01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:24,680 Speaker 1: they say and where I'm from. 1761 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:26,800 Speaker 2: All right, Topic number five takes us to the two 1762 01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:30,000 Speaker 2: Arena on Saturday. Hey, UFC's back, not just a regular 1763 01:17:30,000 --> 01:17:32,160 Speaker 2: fight and I we're at London here with this card 1764 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:35,760 Speaker 2: and it ain't bad. There's a high stakes in this 1765 01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:39,800 Speaker 2: welterweight main event as former champion Leon Edwards bent out 1766 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:42,120 Speaker 2: for a while, we've needed to see his answer, his 1767 01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:45,800 Speaker 2: return from falling off of that welterweight thrown. He'll be 1768 01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:48,519 Speaker 2: welcoming a streaking Sean Brady. But is it a Sean 1769 01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:52,599 Speaker 2: Brady who's shown us every answered all the questions we had. Well, 1770 01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:53,960 Speaker 2: this will be the fight in a lot of ways 1771 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:55,320 Speaker 2: that should do that for us. 1772 01:17:55,520 --> 01:17:55,760 Speaker 1: Luke. 1773 01:17:55,800 --> 01:17:59,960 Speaker 2: This has massive steaks. It's a great fight. So when 1774 01:18:00,000 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 2: when you talk about which aspect of this great fight 1775 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:07,200 Speaker 2: has you most intrigued, most cised, most excited, most recoiled 1776 01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:11,479 Speaker 2: and ready for possible gross explosion? Who even talks like 1777 01:18:11,520 --> 01:18:14,559 Speaker 2: this on a television program in front of a microphone? Luke? 1778 01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:17,800 Speaker 2: What part of this fight is the sexiest to me? 1779 01:18:18,280 --> 01:18:22,639 Speaker 1: This is? This is due or die for Leon Edwards. Now, 1780 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:24,840 Speaker 1: of course, even if he loses a decision here, I 1781 01:18:24,880 --> 01:18:26,559 Speaker 1: don't mean his career is over. That's not what I mean. 1782 01:18:26,920 --> 01:18:28,360 Speaker 1: But this is due or die for him at the 1783 01:18:28,360 --> 01:18:31,080 Speaker 1: top of this division. And the reason why I say 1784 01:18:31,080 --> 01:18:33,800 Speaker 1: that is obviously just sort of where he is from 1785 01:18:33,840 --> 01:18:36,040 Speaker 1: a general position, but there's a little bit more to 1786 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:39,360 Speaker 1: it than that. Namely, he was supposed to be fighting 1787 01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:42,080 Speaker 1: Jack Dala Madelena and there was a switch to Sean Brady. 1788 01:18:42,120 --> 01:18:44,040 Speaker 1: Now that you go from a striker to the grappler, 1789 01:18:44,080 --> 01:18:45,880 Speaker 1: that can't be easy. But number one, there was a 1790 01:18:45,880 --> 01:18:48,559 Speaker 1: lot of time in between to get right. Number two, 1791 01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:50,639 Speaker 1: we're talking about a guy who had to go back 1792 01:18:50,680 --> 01:18:53,000 Speaker 1: to back fights with Kamara Usman. He had to fight 1793 01:18:53,080 --> 01:18:55,920 Speaker 1: Colby Covington, he had to fight Bla Mohammed, and now 1794 01:18:55,960 --> 01:18:58,400 Speaker 1: you have to fight Sean Brady. These are each different guys, 1795 01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:01,759 Speaker 1: but you are talking about different versions of the same 1796 01:19:01,920 --> 01:19:04,400 Speaker 1: kind of fighter. Somebody who's going to press you up 1797 01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:06,480 Speaker 1: against the fence, who's going to be hunting for takedowns, 1798 01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:08,519 Speaker 1: looking for submissions from the back. In the case of 1799 01:19:08,760 --> 01:19:10,920 Speaker 1: Sean Brady, by the way, very very you know, very 1800 01:19:10,920 --> 01:19:14,640 Speaker 1: good at that. But you have a chance to capitalize 1801 01:19:14,680 --> 01:19:17,639 Speaker 1: on all of you if you are Leon Edwards. All 1802 01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:20,559 Speaker 1: of the investment in takedown defence, in getting off of 1803 01:19:20,600 --> 01:19:24,200 Speaker 1: the your back off defence, in down blocking everything that 1804 01:19:24,240 --> 01:19:27,320 Speaker 1: he has worked on for years at this point, even 1805 01:19:27,360 --> 01:19:30,160 Speaker 1: before the kamor Usman rematch, but I mean in particular 1806 01:19:30,360 --> 01:19:33,480 Speaker 1: ramping it up since then, where he had these constant 1807 01:19:33,520 --> 01:19:37,200 Speaker 1: wrestlers in his face. This is advantageous for him. On 1808 01:19:37,280 --> 01:19:39,840 Speaker 1: top of it, you will recall in his last fight 1809 01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:41,680 Speaker 1: where he did lose to Bala Muhammad. And you can 1810 01:19:41,720 --> 01:19:44,000 Speaker 1: choose to accept this or not. I'm just repeating to 1811 01:19:44,040 --> 01:19:47,439 Speaker 1: you what Leon Edwards told the public, namely, hey, it 1812 01:19:47,520 --> 01:19:50,000 Speaker 1: was five in the morning. It messed me up. Well, 1813 01:19:50,040 --> 01:19:52,320 Speaker 1: this one will not be This one is going to 1814 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:55,960 Speaker 1: be prime freaking time in London. 1815 01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:56,680 Speaker 2: Dinner time for us. 1816 01:19:56,680 --> 01:19:58,600 Speaker 1: So let's back up a second here. Let's back up 1817 01:19:58,640 --> 01:19:59,000 Speaker 1: a second. 1818 01:19:59,000 --> 01:19:59,160 Speaker 3: Here. 1819 01:19:59,160 --> 01:20:02,080 Speaker 1: We're talking about a situation where a former champion is 1820 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:07,360 Speaker 1: getting a I'm not gonna say stylistically favorable, but stylistically 1821 01:20:07,640 --> 01:20:12,040 Speaker 1: well known kind of opponent on a much better time, 1822 01:20:12,640 --> 01:20:15,320 Speaker 1: a guy who, by the way, I have great admiration 1823 01:20:15,400 --> 01:20:18,960 Speaker 1: for Sean Brady. He was one of MK's first alums. 1824 01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:24,839 Speaker 1: From Jesus my brain just fried their room service diaries. 1825 01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:28,720 Speaker 1: He has worked on his striking, but it's not like 1826 01:20:28,800 --> 01:20:31,640 Speaker 1: he's the kind of striking threat that you know I 1827 01:20:31,640 --> 01:20:33,920 Speaker 1: think kamar Usman is necessarily. 1828 01:20:33,520 --> 01:20:35,960 Speaker 2: Not showing it in those two comeback fights, meaning Sean Brady, 1829 01:20:36,000 --> 01:20:37,599 Speaker 2: or has he not been forced to show it. 1830 01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:39,680 Speaker 1: It's tough to show it against Gilbert Burns, I think 1831 01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:41,800 Speaker 1: more than people realize. So so the other point is 1832 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:44,880 Speaker 1: maybe Brady actually shows us here. We already know whos 1833 01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:47,600 Speaker 1: wrestling is top notch, We already know is grappling is sensational. 1834 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,080 Speaker 1: We already know he's a fucking gorilla. Maybe he actually 1835 01:20:50,120 --> 01:20:52,439 Speaker 1: adds another wrinkle here which actually adds to the intrigy 1836 01:20:53,920 --> 01:20:56,320 Speaker 1: some bombs. I'm just pointing out. If you're Leon Edwards 1837 01:20:56,320 --> 01:20:59,080 Speaker 1: and you lose this one, what would the excuse be 1838 01:20:59,200 --> 01:21:01,760 Speaker 1: this time? What could you possibly say? 1839 01:21:01,800 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 2: Give him the Tarford bit right now? 1840 01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:06,840 Speaker 1: Well a little bit? Did he not make a bunch 1841 01:21:06,840 --> 01:21:09,800 Speaker 1: of excuses, including ones like dude, La Mohammad went in 1842 01:21:09,840 --> 01:21:11,080 Speaker 1: there and fought a five in the morning and he 1843 01:21:11,120 --> 01:21:14,639 Speaker 1: won just fine. Leon is an excellent fighter who has 1844 01:21:14,680 --> 01:21:18,240 Speaker 1: done incredibly well. They are giving him again. You're fighting 1845 01:21:18,240 --> 01:21:20,320 Speaker 1: Sean Brady. It's not an easy fight, far from it, 1846 01:21:20,400 --> 01:21:24,200 Speaker 1: but the set of circumstances, in particular relative to the 1847 01:21:24,280 --> 01:21:28,639 Speaker 1: last one, should give him I don't know some confidence 1848 01:21:28,640 --> 01:21:32,680 Speaker 1: about his chances here. If he loses this one, what 1849 01:21:32,720 --> 01:21:34,120 Speaker 1: are you gonna say? Now, Roy, Wow? 1850 01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:37,160 Speaker 2: Long Alan, I'm wondering if you echo that from Luke, 1851 01:21:37,280 --> 01:21:39,080 Speaker 2: Like what I said off the start of the segment 1852 01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:41,000 Speaker 2: was that, like Leon, where you been? We've been waiting 1853 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:43,000 Speaker 2: for this answer, and I'm thinking he's got like a 1854 01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:45,320 Speaker 2: year and a half layoff. His layoff is eight months 1855 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:48,160 Speaker 2: he lost the belt last July. Do you feel like 1856 01:21:48,640 --> 01:21:51,120 Speaker 2: he's like overdue to answer a lot of questions here, like, 1857 01:21:51,200 --> 01:21:53,200 Speaker 2: let's effing go? You staying on that? 1858 01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:55,400 Speaker 4: I don't think he should be, but I think given 1859 01:21:55,439 --> 01:21:57,280 Speaker 4: how long it took him to get a title shot, 1860 01:21:57,320 --> 01:21:59,600 Speaker 4: obviously the UFC does not really favor him, so I 1861 01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:01,840 Speaker 4: would agree that, like now you lose two in a 1862 01:22:01,920 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 4: row to top guys, it's gonna take him a while to 1863 01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:07,080 Speaker 4: get back to that spot. But I do feel like 1864 01:22:07,120 --> 01:22:09,840 Speaker 4: the JDM fight was way more winnable for him here. 1865 01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 4: I know the odds were a little further apart, but. 1866 01:22:12,280 --> 01:22:14,120 Speaker 2: See, I thought this was more. I thought we had 1867 01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:17,320 Speaker 2: more questions about Sean Brady in this fight, like can 1868 01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:19,840 Speaker 2: you You're gonna have to show us the full game? 1869 01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:22,120 Speaker 2: So will you're striking be on the level. What what 1870 01:22:22,200 --> 01:22:24,880 Speaker 2: have you grown? Where have you grown since the balla last? 1871 01:22:25,080 --> 01:22:27,799 Speaker 1: Why are you convinced he can't win with wrestling and grappling. 1872 01:22:27,920 --> 01:22:29,880 Speaker 2: I'm not convinced that he can't. I'm just saying I 1873 01:22:29,920 --> 01:22:32,599 Speaker 2: thought that was where the focus would be question wise 1874 01:22:32,640 --> 01:22:34,680 Speaker 2: and concern wise. And you're saying, well, this. 1875 01:22:34,680 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 1: Is what makes it a great main event. It is. 1876 01:22:36,640 --> 01:22:38,280 Speaker 1: Everything you're saying is true. You asked me what I'm 1877 01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:39,040 Speaker 1: paying attention to. 1878 01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:40,599 Speaker 2: I mean they both are gonna have to answer something. 1879 01:22:40,640 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 1: Lean Edwards surprised me against kamar Usman. But then you 1880 01:22:43,000 --> 01:22:44,599 Speaker 1: watch some of those fights and you go back, you're like, Okay, 1881 01:22:44,720 --> 01:22:47,240 Speaker 1: you shouldn't have been surprised. Obviously, he rolled over Colby, 1882 01:22:47,280 --> 01:22:50,320 Speaker 1: who looked like shit. And again, folks, forget in the 1883 01:22:50,360 --> 01:22:52,000 Speaker 1: fifth round he gave bill All some trouble and obviously 1884 01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:53,120 Speaker 1: it was another round. I think he took his back 1885 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:54,639 Speaker 1: or whatever the second round or whatever. It was second 1886 01:22:54,640 --> 01:22:57,040 Speaker 1: our third round, So you know, it wasn't like he 1887 01:22:57,080 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 1: got completely demolished in that fight. It's just, dude, you're 1888 01:23:01,280 --> 01:23:03,719 Speaker 1: getting another wrestler. You're getting it at a much better 1889 01:23:03,760 --> 01:23:07,840 Speaker 1: time slot. He has historically not shown the most aggressive 1890 01:23:07,880 --> 01:23:11,400 Speaker 1: punching ever. Okay, Leon, you want to get back. This 1891 01:23:11,439 --> 01:23:12,840 Speaker 1: is a great opportunity, right. 1892 01:23:12,760 --> 01:23:14,600 Speaker 2: And even though I'm the one saying, like, man, if 1893 01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:16,160 Speaker 2: where have you been? Come back? It feels like it's 1894 01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:17,800 Speaker 2: so long. I guess I feel the weight of not 1895 01:23:18,160 --> 01:23:22,519 Speaker 2: having these questions answered. But he's thirty three and heading 1896 01:23:22,560 --> 01:23:24,599 Speaker 2: into his last fight he was top five pound for pounds, 1897 01:23:24,640 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 2: So I'm saying I might have a little bit more 1898 01:23:26,200 --> 01:23:29,240 Speaker 2: confidence that we are going to get a very elitely 1899 01:23:29,240 --> 01:23:30,840 Speaker 2: on Edwards in this one. So I want to see 1900 01:23:30,840 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 2: if Sean Brady can raise that yes well, or if 1901 01:23:33,520 --> 01:23:35,599 Speaker 2: his plan A is going to be a problem for Leon. 1902 01:23:35,640 --> 01:23:37,640 Speaker 2: There is a lot of chatter, and we're going to 1903 01:23:37,680 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 2: break it down exces and O why it is in 1904 01:23:39,240 --> 01:23:41,160 Speaker 2: great detail on Friday, but let's just stick here from 1905 01:23:41,200 --> 01:23:45,280 Speaker 2: a distance. A lot of chatter of is Leon the 1906 01:23:45,479 --> 01:23:48,880 Speaker 2: takedown defender that he's made up to be and would 1907 01:23:48,960 --> 01:23:51,440 Speaker 2: he have a problem with Sean Brady's aggressiveness. 1908 01:23:51,680 --> 01:23:55,479 Speaker 1: I think if Sean Brady can take down Gilbert Burns, 1909 01:23:55,479 --> 01:24:00,400 Speaker 1: he can definitely take down Leon Edwards. But dude, you 1910 01:24:00,479 --> 01:24:04,240 Speaker 1: got who knows how Sean is feeling? Who knows if 1911 01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:08,360 Speaker 1: he's he's a competitive I mean, Michael Kiessa, but we 1912 01:24:08,360 --> 01:24:10,080 Speaker 1: were talking about this privately one time, and he was 1913 01:24:10,160 --> 01:24:12,479 Speaker 1: he just couldn't believe how fucking strong he was. He 1914 01:24:12,560 --> 01:24:15,280 Speaker 1: was just like shocked by it. And you know, d 1915 01:24:15,520 --> 01:24:17,840 Speaker 1: we already know Sean Brady can wrestle his ass off. 1916 01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:20,360 Speaker 1: We already know he's got phenomenal He's got some of 1917 01:24:20,360 --> 01:24:22,479 Speaker 1: the best jiu jitsu, by the way, in the entire UFC. 1918 01:24:22,640 --> 01:24:23,280 Speaker 1: That's a real thing. 1919 01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,240 Speaker 2: And you and him both agree that Assay should be 1920 01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:26,360 Speaker 2: fully tatted. 1921 01:24:26,000 --> 01:24:28,960 Speaker 1: On, tat up them thangs. But at the same time, 1922 01:24:29,680 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 1: I just find it real interesting how Leon kind of 1923 01:24:32,360 --> 01:24:35,960 Speaker 1: went out in his last fight, the way things turned here, 1924 01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:39,080 Speaker 1: It's just a real remarkable turn of events. I am 1925 01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:41,439 Speaker 1: I am pumped for this. 1926 01:24:41,600 --> 01:24:43,720 Speaker 2: Here's the question, and this is very cynical. And if 1927 01:24:43,720 --> 01:24:45,519 Speaker 2: you're a Leon fan, you're gonna be like you see, 1928 01:24:45,520 --> 01:24:50,519 Speaker 2: you're a dick. Was he super elite or was he streaky? 1929 01:24:50,600 --> 01:24:53,479 Speaker 2: And I know, like people allowed one off night performance? 1930 01:24:53,560 --> 01:24:56,120 Speaker 2: Was it one off night Luke or was he streaky 1931 01:24:56,280 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 2: meaning that people like me who missed on the way 1932 01:24:59,200 --> 01:25:02,440 Speaker 2: up how good he actually was? Did we have reasons 1933 01:25:02,640 --> 01:25:06,479 Speaker 2: to have that doubt and maybe he is a little 1934 01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:07,680 Speaker 2: bit of a streaky. 1935 01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:10,000 Speaker 1: Fire and I didn't expect him to win the Kamara 1936 01:25:10,080 --> 01:25:11,680 Speaker 1: Usban rematch, which, by the way, he was on the 1937 01:25:11,720 --> 01:25:13,720 Speaker 1: way to not doing that until he had won the 1938 01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:17,000 Speaker 1: greatest moments in UFC history. He won the rubber match 1939 01:25:17,240 --> 01:25:18,880 Speaker 1: cleanly at that point. 1940 01:25:18,560 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 2: And that's when we were like, oh shit, if we'd 1941 01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:21,680 Speaker 2: been if we'd missed it, then that's the. 1942 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:23,360 Speaker 1: So that's what That's what I felt like. I was like, damn, 1943 01:25:23,400 --> 01:25:24,880 Speaker 1: I must I must have missed what he was doing. 1944 01:25:24,880 --> 01:25:29,720 Speaker 1: But then to watch what Blall did, I was like, oh, right, Well, 1945 01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:33,479 Speaker 1: here's the thing. The law Mohammed's takedown setups in series 1946 01:25:34,240 --> 01:25:36,840 Speaker 1: are very different than what kamar Usman did. I did 1947 01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:40,160 Speaker 1: a whole tape study on it. They had a real 1948 01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:43,439 Speaker 1: particular method that they were looking at when they went 1949 01:25:43,560 --> 01:25:46,400 Speaker 1: after him, and it worked tremendously. The pum trying to 1950 01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:49,599 Speaker 1: make is it feels to me like Leon leveled up 1951 01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:53,920 Speaker 1: his wrestling for an older generation of welterweight, And I 1952 01:25:53,960 --> 01:25:56,760 Speaker 1: know that Blall is technically a little bit older, but 1953 01:25:56,760 --> 01:25:59,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying the generational that he comes from and the new, 1954 01:26:00,000 --> 01:26:02,639 Speaker 1: newer generation of grappler, the newer generation of Walter Wade. 1955 01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:04,400 Speaker 1: I don't know this because only Ballall has done it. 1956 01:26:04,800 --> 01:26:07,920 Speaker 1: But if Sean goes in there and does it, you're like, aha, okay, 1957 01:26:07,960 --> 01:26:09,559 Speaker 1: so there was a line in the sand he could 1958 01:26:09,560 --> 01:26:11,720 Speaker 1: not cross. Or Leon goes in there and you know, 1959 01:26:11,760 --> 01:26:15,160 Speaker 1: busts him up and he's right back to it. So again, 1960 01:26:15,479 --> 01:26:17,639 Speaker 1: either way, you want to look at this, this fucking fight. 1961 01:26:17,960 --> 01:26:19,479 Speaker 2: Early odds here long Allen. 1962 01:26:20,479 --> 01:26:23,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, right now, Leon is plus one twenty four showing 1963 01:26:23,240 --> 01:26:24,120 Speaker 5: Brady minus one. 1964 01:26:24,160 --> 01:26:26,120 Speaker 1: For you, that's a lot of respect for Brady, right, 1965 01:26:26,120 --> 01:26:27,640 Speaker 1: It's a lot of respect for Brady. It's a lot 1966 01:26:27,640 --> 01:26:29,160 Speaker 1: of to me. It's a lot of respect for Brady. 1967 01:26:29,200 --> 01:26:31,720 Speaker 1: It's also a lot of doubt to me about Leon. Yeah, 1968 01:26:31,960 --> 01:26:33,920 Speaker 1: I think people are like, I don't know, We're gonna 1969 01:26:33,960 --> 01:26:35,960 Speaker 1: get with it. This is my point. This is my point. 1970 01:26:36,000 --> 01:26:38,559 Speaker 1: This is the whole reason why this shit is intriguing, 1971 01:26:38,840 --> 01:26:40,680 Speaker 1: because Leon could go out there and shut all my 1972 01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:42,679 Speaker 1: stupid mouth and everyone else about. I'm not even predicting 1973 01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:44,880 Speaker 1: hall Los necessarily. I'm just saying, you know, really like 1974 01:26:44,960 --> 01:26:47,200 Speaker 1: dunk on, Okay, people were doubting me. Look how great 1975 01:26:47,200 --> 01:26:49,639 Speaker 1: I am, Like this is on the table as well. 1976 01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 2: Watch that's we watch. 1977 01:26:50,560 --> 01:26:51,599 Speaker 1: This is why we watch. 1978 01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:52,439 Speaker 2: Damn, let's hear from. 1979 01:26:52,479 --> 01:26:53,280 Speaker 1: This is why we watch. 1980 01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:55,800 Speaker 2: We got that ship. Let's hear from Leon, Rocky, Let's go, 1981 01:26:56,960 --> 01:26:57,240 Speaker 2: Let's go. 1982 01:26:57,920 --> 01:27:00,000 Speaker 10: That told me that after this wedd this isn't walking 1983 01:27:00,080 --> 01:27:05,400 Speaker 10: kind of fight. Wins this well, when I win, that 1984 01:27:05,560 --> 01:27:07,720 Speaker 10: is My aim is to to get back at two 1985 01:27:07,800 --> 01:27:10,120 Speaker 10: tong World Championship and the result of the follow me 1986 01:27:10,160 --> 01:27:12,000 Speaker 10: and everyone knew there with me. 1987 01:27:12,080 --> 01:27:12,920 Speaker 2: You know that was fine? 1988 01:27:13,080 --> 01:27:14,439 Speaker 10: Find anymore? 1989 01:27:16,120 --> 01:27:17,920 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't love that excuse going right? 1990 01:27:18,000 --> 01:27:18,680 Speaker 1: Just see what I mean? 1991 01:27:18,720 --> 01:27:21,080 Speaker 2: He might be right. What if he's just really honest? 1992 01:27:21,120 --> 01:27:23,200 Speaker 2: What if he's just like that was the reason I 1993 01:27:23,240 --> 01:27:24,599 Speaker 2: succumbed to the time change. 1994 01:27:24,680 --> 01:27:28,559 Speaker 1: Okay, I believe that. Why didn't it affect Muhammad right now? 1995 01:27:28,640 --> 01:27:29,800 Speaker 2: It doesn't like others like. 1996 01:27:30,280 --> 01:27:32,960 Speaker 5: In England for ballall is midnight macause he didn't prep. 1997 01:27:33,040 --> 01:27:36,240 Speaker 2: What I'm saying is like that stuff could trip you up. 1998 01:27:36,360 --> 01:27:39,000 Speaker 2: Maybe he's just being honest, like it tripped me, tripped 1999 01:27:39,000 --> 01:27:39,559 Speaker 2: me the f up. 2000 01:27:40,160 --> 01:27:42,960 Speaker 1: The excuse making for Leon here is insane to me. 2001 01:27:43,080 --> 01:27:45,840 Speaker 1: He's You're the UFC walter weight champion of the world. 2002 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,400 Speaker 1: You have all the time in the world to adjust 2003 01:27:48,479 --> 01:27:52,320 Speaker 1: your schedule to perform at that time. Miss me with 2004 01:27:52,360 --> 01:27:56,840 Speaker 1: this bullshit? Please miss me with it? What are we 2005 01:27:56,960 --> 01:27:57,800 Speaker 1: talking about here? 2006 01:27:58,280 --> 01:27:58,479 Speaker 3: Oh? 2007 01:27:58,640 --> 01:28:01,800 Speaker 4: Wow, defending it, I'm saying you've said Ballall had to 2008 01:28:01,800 --> 01:28:02,639 Speaker 4: fight at that time too. 2009 01:28:02,640 --> 01:28:04,639 Speaker 5: Blall is still used to time in Chicago. 2010 01:28:04,800 --> 01:28:06,400 Speaker 1: No, but he came over weeks ahead of time. He 2011 01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:08,000 Speaker 1: had to acclimate there as well. I mean, I guess 2012 01:28:08,000 --> 01:28:10,880 Speaker 1: there was. It's probably easier to acclimate given that. That's fine. 2013 01:28:11,439 --> 01:28:13,760 Speaker 1: But again, if my job is to go run a 2014 01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:15,960 Speaker 1: race at five am, I'm going to take all the 2015 01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:18,479 Speaker 1: time I need to do that. And if I fail 2016 01:28:18,560 --> 01:28:22,640 Speaker 1: to perform that, oh tough titties. 2017 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:25,720 Speaker 2: To what I was secretly trying to ask in that 2018 01:28:25,800 --> 01:28:30,880 Speaker 2: last harsh question of of Ballall, It's like, is he 2019 01:28:30,960 --> 01:28:33,800 Speaker 2: an elite fighter or did he have elite flashes in 2020 01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:35,400 Speaker 2: it when he needed? No, He's what I'm saying. 2021 01:28:36,280 --> 01:28:36,439 Speaker 3: No. 2022 01:28:36,439 --> 01:28:38,000 Speaker 2: No. I guess what I'm trying to say is like, 2023 01:28:38,200 --> 01:28:41,200 Speaker 2: we're not concerned that he's physically washed, but are we 2024 01:28:41,320 --> 01:28:43,960 Speaker 2: concerned that he doesn't have that same spark when he 2025 01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:46,640 Speaker 2: needs it most? Like, you know, momentum wise. 2026 01:28:46,479 --> 01:28:48,040 Speaker 1: You have to wonder if he doesn't hit that head 2027 01:28:48,120 --> 01:28:49,679 Speaker 1: kick on Kumara. Where is he today? 2028 01:28:49,880 --> 01:28:51,600 Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying, And like the mental side of 2029 01:28:51,600 --> 01:28:54,879 Speaker 2: it is huge, and sometimes momentum really matters in this regard. 2030 01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:57,680 Speaker 2: So right now, is it not that he's regressed, it's 2031 01:28:57,720 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 2: just that he's on a he could be on a downswing. 2032 01:28:59,479 --> 01:29:01,320 Speaker 2: I mean, that's those are some of the questions that 2033 01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:01,960 Speaker 2: he's got to answer. 2034 01:29:02,040 --> 01:29:06,280 Speaker 1: He's always been a little streak. He's not quite the right'ial. Yeah, 2035 01:29:06,320 --> 01:29:09,599 Speaker 1: a little bit kind of like, you know, very good, 2036 01:29:10,080 --> 01:29:11,720 Speaker 1: but not exactly. 2037 01:29:11,520 --> 01:29:13,679 Speaker 2: The almost fell apart there at the end. 2038 01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:19,240 Speaker 1: Yep, yep, not exactly overwhelming. But I do think he's elite. 2039 01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:21,479 Speaker 1: I do think he's very good. Again, let's be clear, 2040 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,160 Speaker 1: Sean Brady has his hands full here. You know, we're 2041 01:29:24,200 --> 01:29:28,639 Speaker 1: not We're not crazy. I just I'm very unsympathetic to Oh, 2042 01:29:28,680 --> 01:29:30,759 Speaker 1: I had to fight five in the morning. Fine, they 2043 01:29:30,760 --> 01:29:33,439 Speaker 1: shouldn't make fighters do that, and I totally think they 2044 01:29:33,479 --> 01:29:36,559 Speaker 1: shouldn't make fighters do that. But you're the UFC walter 2045 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:39,720 Speaker 1: weight champion of the world, dude. Give the excuse to 2046 01:29:39,760 --> 01:29:40,439 Speaker 1: somebody else. 2047 01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:44,639 Speaker 2: I mean, there's interested in it, get interested, But leon 2048 01:29:44,840 --> 01:29:47,640 Speaker 2: M fighting until five in the man, right, So what 2049 01:29:47,680 --> 01:29:50,479 Speaker 2: you're going to do. We also have sound from Sean Brady. 2050 01:29:50,479 --> 01:29:51,880 Speaker 2: Do you want to hear from Phil sound? 2051 01:29:51,880 --> 01:29:53,559 Speaker 1: I think, oh do we Okay, let's see. 2052 01:29:53,400 --> 01:29:55,400 Speaker 2: I hear we do. We don't have sound for I 2053 01:29:55,479 --> 01:29:56,880 Speaker 2: must have misread people. 2054 01:29:56,640 --> 01:29:58,439 Speaker 4: All reacting to Leon's last week. 2055 01:29:59,520 --> 01:30:02,280 Speaker 2: Oh here we go, here we go, thank you for this? 2056 01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:02,800 Speaker 1: This uh. 2057 01:30:04,280 --> 01:30:07,639 Speaker 2: From Perry Puncher. Bala Mohammed response to Leon Edwards's claim 2058 01:30:07,720 --> 01:30:09,599 Speaker 2: that the UFC told him he will receive the next 2059 01:30:09,680 --> 01:30:12,160 Speaker 2: title shot if you beat Sean Brady at UFC London 2060 01:30:12,200 --> 01:30:15,519 Speaker 2: and says he will one hundred turn it down if 2061 01:30:15,560 --> 01:30:18,280 Speaker 2: it gets all offered, and the quote is I don't 2062 01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:21,360 Speaker 2: know what Leon's thinking, because Leon, you have a full 2063 01:30:21,479 --> 01:30:24,800 Speaker 2: three years before you can even think about getting a 2064 01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:27,799 Speaker 2: rematch with me. This is Muhammad talking on the Believe 2065 01:30:27,840 --> 01:30:30,639 Speaker 2: You Me podcast. It's going to be a long three years, 2066 01:30:30,640 --> 01:30:34,400 Speaker 2: he said of fighting contenders for Leon, and then one 2067 01:30:34,479 --> 01:30:36,920 Speaker 2: hundred percent, I would say no. If UFC offered me 2068 01:30:37,000 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 2: Leon Edwards next, and this is obviously Belall still talking. 2069 01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:41,760 Speaker 2: I would make him wait. I have the next guy 2070 01:30:41,840 --> 01:30:44,599 Speaker 2: in line. Anyway, I think it's shavcut, so there's nothing 2071 01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:47,400 Speaker 2: he could do to skip Shav Cut. I wouldn't allow 2072 01:30:47,439 --> 01:30:50,559 Speaker 2: that to ever happen. So luke bold statements by the 2073 01:30:50,600 --> 01:30:53,480 Speaker 2: champion right there? Does he actually have that control and power. 2074 01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:57,120 Speaker 1: He can say? No, yes, yes he can. 2075 01:30:57,040 --> 01:30:59,519 Speaker 2: And then what happens next to the UFC publicly shames you. 2076 01:31:00,000 --> 01:31:01,559 Speaker 1: I think the thing is this. The question is how 2077 01:31:01,640 --> 01:31:04,240 Speaker 1: quickly shot Cut's going to be ready? And the other 2078 01:31:04,280 --> 01:31:06,760 Speaker 1: possibility is what if Leon goes in there and just 2079 01:31:06,800 --> 01:31:09,960 Speaker 1: fucking runs over Sean Brady like head kicks him in 2080 01:31:09,960 --> 01:31:10,559 Speaker 1: the first round. 2081 01:31:10,720 --> 01:31:13,800 Speaker 2: What's the catch phrase he has? Is it a headshot dead? 2082 01:31:14,960 --> 01:31:17,240 Speaker 1: Yes? Yeah, So I'm saying, what if he gets one 2083 01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:17,519 Speaker 1: of those? 2084 01:31:17,640 --> 01:31:19,000 Speaker 2: You gave a cringe response to that? 2085 01:31:19,080 --> 01:31:21,639 Speaker 1: No, no, no, I just forgot I was my dude. I've 2086 01:31:21,680 --> 01:31:23,560 Speaker 1: been awake since two thirty this morning. My brain is 2087 01:31:23,600 --> 01:31:26,360 Speaker 1: barely working, all right. But what I'm trying to say 2088 01:31:26,439 --> 01:31:28,879 Speaker 1: is the UFC is just giving themselves options. They probably 2089 01:31:28,880 --> 01:31:30,680 Speaker 1: did tell him that, and I'm not even saying they 2090 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:32,320 Speaker 1: don't even mean it. If he goes out there and 2091 01:31:32,360 --> 01:31:35,360 Speaker 1: wins and can make a quick turnaround and looks pretty 2092 01:31:35,400 --> 01:31:37,120 Speaker 1: good and shot Cut's not quite ready, we haven't heard 2093 01:31:37,120 --> 01:31:39,080 Speaker 1: anyth about how Shotcot's gonna be ready.

Yeah, let's go to the next question 2204 01:36:14,520 --> 01:36:17,800 Speaker 2: here from these donks. This one's from Flannels and JITs, Luke, 2205 01:36:17,840 --> 01:36:20,400 Speaker 2: He writes, in every damn episode, you got to support 2206 01:36:20,439 --> 01:36:22,920 Speaker 2: a guy like this, right, Support him. 2207 01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:25,120 Speaker 1: Luke, You support him, motherfucker all right? 2208 01:36:25,720 --> 01:36:28,280 Speaker 2: Is the lack of depth Flannels and JITs asks in 2209 01:36:28,320 --> 01:36:31,479 Speaker 2: the UFC's Light heavyweight and heavyweight divisions, partly due to 2210 01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:34,760 Speaker 2: top tier athletes like Brock Lesner, Kane Velsquez, and Cole 2211 01:36:34,840 --> 01:36:38,920 Speaker 2: Conrad choosing to remain in wrestling or transition to nogi 2212 01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:42,599 Speaker 2: grappling where they can earn solid money with the risk 2213 01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 2: of CTE question mark there was that was a run 2214 01:36:45,320 --> 01:36:45,799 Speaker 2: on sentime. 2215 01:36:45,960 --> 01:36:48,840 Speaker 1: I don't know to what extent is affecting those divisions 2216 01:36:48,880 --> 01:36:53,240 Speaker 1: in particular. Obviously Gable steveson. It seems inevitable he goes 2217 01:36:53,280 --> 01:36:55,040 Speaker 1: to MMA because he washed out of everything else. 2218 01:36:55,080 --> 01:36:57,240 Speaker 2: But that's a bad ending. 2219 01:36:57,439 --> 01:36:59,160 Speaker 1: Well do you go back to I was watching one 2220 01:36:59,200 --> 01:37:02,240 Speaker 1: of his dual meets recently, actually on TV or where 2221 01:37:02,400 --> 01:37:04,080 Speaker 1: I can't remember where I saw it, but he was 2222 01:37:04,120 --> 01:37:07,280 Speaker 1: just abusing these fuckings. Oh yeah, like it was insane. 2223 01:37:07,280 --> 01:37:09,080 Speaker 1: So he's gonna end up an MMA, which will be 2224 01:37:09,200 --> 01:37:11,120 Speaker 1: you know, obviously a boost for the Ufcason. 2225 01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:12,360 Speaker 2: I really believe he's gonna fight. 2226 01:37:13,240 --> 01:37:15,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know what unless he gets some kind 2227 01:37:15,520 --> 01:37:17,120 Speaker 1: of job at like a d one school as like 2228 01:37:17,160 --> 01:37:20,080 Speaker 1: a coach, or they just give him huge money or something. Yeah, 2229 01:37:20,120 --> 01:37:20,920 Speaker 1: he's gonna. He's gonna. 2230 01:37:20,920 --> 01:37:23,160 Speaker 2: Probably he just not have the heart for progrestling. I'm 2231 01:37:23,160 --> 01:37:25,360 Speaker 2: asking because I wasn't following that when it was happening. 2232 01:37:25,520 --> 01:37:28,880 Speaker 2: I don't fall out with WWE, but I don't know you're. 2233 01:37:28,720 --> 01:37:29,360 Speaker 1: Asking the wrong guy. 2234 01:37:29,439 --> 01:37:30,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, clearly, Yeah, there's no doubt. 2235 01:37:31,000 --> 01:37:32,240 Speaker 1: So I think the fact that he didn't. He has 2236 01:37:32,320 --> 01:37:35,000 Speaker 1: allegations of sexual assault. I cannot and I think the 2237 01:37:35,040 --> 01:37:37,160 Speaker 1: fans turned on him for that. Again, allegations. I don't 2238 01:37:37,160 --> 01:37:38,200 Speaker 1: know what happened legally, but. 2239 01:37:38,680 --> 01:37:41,120 Speaker 2: Well, well, if he stays in MMA, they won't turn 2240 01:37:41,160 --> 01:37:44,880 Speaker 2: on Okay, so let's go to the next question. 2241 01:37:45,160 --> 01:37:46,519 Speaker 1: They might invite him to the White House. 2242 01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:51,120 Speaker 2: Boy Justin at Justin dot b underscore. Wow, that's very 2243 01:37:51,280 --> 01:37:55,120 Speaker 2: uh in code. It was great to see Keith Thurman back, 2244 01:37:56,200 --> 01:37:58,439 Speaker 2: but it made me think, what if he never got 2245 01:37:58,479 --> 01:38:01,160 Speaker 2: injured in twenty sixteen and Keith Thurman was the best 2246 01:38:01,160 --> 01:38:03,320 Speaker 2: welterweight on the planet. That is a true fact. He 2247 01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:06,240 Speaker 2: should have been in the mix with Spence and Crawford. 2248 01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:10,559 Speaker 2: Which other fighters boxing or MMA? Do you think that 2249 01:38:10,600 --> 01:38:13,479 Speaker 2: what if for Kane Velaskaz is a major what if? 2250 01:38:13,479 --> 01:38:16,960 Speaker 2: In my brain?

Don't you think, like we never got 2257 01:38:31,560 --> 01:38:33,719 Speaker 2: Kane Steve Pey that would have been great at the peak. 2258 01:38:33,479 --> 01:38:35,880 Speaker 1: Of their We've never got Kane, John Jones.

That was one of those moments where 2267 01:38:53,560 --> 01:38:55,880 Speaker 1: I was like a star was born. How many times 2268 01:38:55,880 --> 01:38:57,679 Speaker 1: can you really say that, you know, like when Taporia 2269 01:38:57,720 --> 01:39:02,360 Speaker 1: beat Volk maybe, but when he definitely beat Helen apart. Yeah, 2270 01:39:02,400 --> 01:39:04,840 Speaker 1: so like you know, I do. He demolished Lesnar, He 2271 01:39:04,920 --> 01:39:07,200 Speaker 1: just fucking abused him like I And then. 2272 01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:08,160 Speaker 2: That was dardom. 2273 01:39:08,240 --> 01:39:10,720 Speaker 1: Actually, that was the first time I'd ever seen and 2274 01:39:10,760 --> 01:39:12,519 Speaker 1: I'm being serious because they hadn't gone to like well, 2275 01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:14,800 Speaker 1: they'd gone to Brazil, but in the United States. That 2276 01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:18,000 Speaker 1: was the first time I had seen a predominantly Hispanic 2277 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:20,680 Speaker 1: audience at a UFC fight. Yes, And I was like, 2278 01:39:20,800 --> 01:39:23,320 Speaker 1: holy shit, they're about to cash in on this fucking 2279 01:39:23,360 --> 01:39:24,439 Speaker 1: transformed figure. 2280 01:39:24,760 --> 01:39:28,200 Speaker 2: And it just said John Jones, imagine if Kane was 2281 01:39:28,240 --> 01:39:32,720 Speaker 2: still around, Luke still active when John came of came of. No, 2282 01:39:32,800 --> 01:39:34,400 Speaker 2: I mean, imagine if we saw Caane and gun who 2283 01:39:34,400 --> 01:39:37,120 Speaker 2: wander a different, different circumstances, right, those would have been great. 2284 01:39:37,200 --> 01:39:38,920 Speaker 2: Is there anybody else that jumps out to you? Because 2285 01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:41,439 Speaker 2: Keith Thurman is a is a decent enough what if 2286 01:39:41,439 --> 01:39:44,439 Speaker 2: Like he did pop back into things for the Thermon Fighter, 2287 01:39:44,520 --> 01:39:47,439 Speaker 2: for that pay per view against Brios, but after his 2288 01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:51,040 Speaker 2: back to back huge fights of Sean Porter and then 2289 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:54,280 Speaker 2: Danny Garcia, They're right, we never got that Spence fight. 2290 01:39:54,360 --> 01:39:57,600 Speaker 2: We never got anyone in that stretch because he was 2291 01:39:57,600 --> 01:39:59,080 Speaker 2: always in and out of the lineup for something. 2292 01:39:59,080 --> 01:40:00,439 Speaker 1: How much of that was injury? 2293 01:40:00,880 --> 01:40:01,360 Speaker 2: Pretty much? 2294 01:40:01,360 --> 01:40:02,720 Speaker 1: All of it, all of it. Yeah, it was a 2295 01:40:02,760 --> 01:40:04,960 Speaker 1: bicep shoulder thing, right, Yeah. 2296 01:40:04,800 --> 01:40:06,080 Speaker 2: But it was like a few things. And then he 2297 01:40:06,120 --> 01:40:07,800 Speaker 2: got married in between then, and some people thought he 2298 01:40:07,920 --> 01:40:11,040 Speaker 2: lost the fire. But when he came back against Pakio, dude, 2299 01:40:11,400 --> 01:40:12,880 Speaker 2: I mean, I he lost, but that that was a 2300 01:40:12,920 --> 01:40:15,439 Speaker 2: great performance out of Keith. And but he had some 2301 01:40:15,479 --> 01:40:17,960 Speaker 2: shaky moments. Remember leading into the Pachaio fight. Js Aesito 2302 01:40:17,960 --> 01:40:19,360 Speaker 2: almost knocked him out against the Ropes. 2303 01:40:19,439 --> 01:40:21,120 Speaker 1: I forgot about that. He had a couple of those 2304 01:40:21,720 --> 01:40:24,880 Speaker 1: dropped him right, yes, yeah, going backwards I think. 2305 01:40:24,880 --> 01:40:26,719 Speaker 2: Dropped him in the first round on like an awkward 2306 01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:28,760 Speaker 2: kind of cross jab but also hurt him to the 2307 01:40:28,800 --> 01:40:31,680 Speaker 2: body lead, you know. But great for Keith with that win, 2308 01:40:31,760 --> 01:40:34,760 Speaker 2: and I'd love to see Tim Zuo spend a few 2309 01:40:34,800 --> 01:40:35,000 Speaker 2: of them. 2310 01:40:35,080 --> 01:40:37,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you what after that win against uh 2311 01:40:37,840 --> 01:40:40,719 Speaker 1: mister brock Jarvis, definitely some renewed interest. 2312 01:40:41,040 --> 01:40:42,960 Speaker 2: There you go at thirty six, No less, let's hit 2313 01:40:43,080 --> 01:40:45,519 Speaker 2: the next one here.

Seriously like all hands on deck 2317 01:40:55,200 --> 01:40:59,720 Speaker 2: right now? Better rock band? He asks? Metallica or Rage 2318 01:40:59,760 --> 01:41:02,240 Speaker 2: again the machine? These are two Alzheimers. 2319 01:41:02,240 --> 01:41:03,439 Speaker 1: Here are they rock bands? 2320 01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:06,719 Speaker 2: I mean Metallica is heavy metal? 2321 01:41:07,640 --> 01:41:10,760 Speaker 1: Well, okay, they were heavy metal. They're maybe closer to. 2322 01:41:10,840 --> 01:41:13,000 Speaker 2: Rock now is this a friends don't let friends get 2323 01:41:13,000 --> 01:41:14,000 Speaker 2: a haircuts moment or what? 2324 01:41:14,120 --> 01:41:16,479 Speaker 1: Yeah? And then Rage? I don't know how you would 2325 01:41:16,479 --> 01:41:18,040 Speaker 1: properly classify them, I guess. 2326 01:41:18,240 --> 01:41:20,960 Speaker 2: I mean they're almost rock rap alternative, like there's a 2327 01:41:20,960 --> 01:41:24,719 Speaker 2: lot going on there, but Ultimately, they're both rock. Who 2328 01:41:24,880 --> 01:41:29,200 Speaker 2: is who, in your opinion, is the better band historically? 2329 01:41:29,280 --> 01:41:34,519 Speaker 1: I think that the even with the problems with their catalog. Nevertheless, Metallic, 2330 01:41:34,640 --> 01:41:35,720 Speaker 1: this catalog is much deeper. 2331 01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:37,479 Speaker 2: I think you gotta take Metallica here. You think you 2332 01:41:37,520 --> 01:41:39,000 Speaker 2: have to long on. Look, you have a clue in 2333 01:41:39,040 --> 01:41:40,320 Speaker 2: this in these departments. 2334 01:41:39,920 --> 01:41:40,920 Speaker 4: So what are you going to say? I got to 2335 01:41:40,960 --> 01:41:41,839 Speaker 4: disagree completely. 2336 01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:48,200 Speaker 1: Its Rage? Bring it Rage. They've had three albums. 2337 01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:50,880 Speaker 4: With the exception of Enter Sandman. Every time Mariano Rivera 2338 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:52,800 Speaker 4: came out to save the game. I mean, I don't 2339 01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:54,360 Speaker 4: listen to Metallica whatsoever, but. 2340 01:41:56,120 --> 01:42:00,920 Speaker 1: Thank you for your listen to us.
