Speaker 1: The John Nick and Kenny Florian Podcast, John Annick and

2
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: Kenny Florian.

3
00:00:18,880 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: I love him.

4
00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:21,560
Speaker 3: I can't get enough of him.

5
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:36,520
Speaker 4: There are a couple of absolutely self involved.

6
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 1: You're your hosts, John Nick and Kenny Florian.

7
00:00:47,800 --> 00:00:50,680
Speaker 5: Kenny Florian, He's going to take a two hour respite

8
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 5: from becoming a more lethal weapon to indulge us here

9
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 5: on the Attic and Florian Podcast. There's a sound clip

10
00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 5: in our open, Ken, I'm glad I made you laugh already.

11
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 5: It's a big part of my goal over the mixt

12
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:09,920
Speaker 5: hours at least everybody joining us live. But there's a

13
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:11,600
Speaker 5: lot to get to. Today, a pay per view week

14
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:14,000
Speaker 5: is upon us. I'm very excited. My Sydney itinerary is

15
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 5: right in front of me. But there is a clip

16
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 5: in our show open that it says, let's hear that

17
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:22,119
Speaker 5: Boston accent, and you would think five hundred episodes, five

18
00:01:22,200 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 5: hundred and thirty five episodes, and I would know where

19
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 5: that clip comes from. So perhaps Cody or you or

20
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,560
Speaker 5: somebody in our audience could let me know where exactly

21
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:30,760
Speaker 5: that clip comes from, and hopefully that doesn't get us

22
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,520
Speaker 5: in any trouble. But I'm very excited. I have two

23
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 5: pens wheels up to Sydney here in a few hours.

24
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 5: A lot to get into. What is that T shirt

25
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:38,559
Speaker 5: you wear in kem flop?

26
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 6: I'm trying a little bit. It's at the Institute of Virology?

27
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: Is that? How that?

28
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 6: How that's pronounced?

29
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: Yes?

30
00:01:48,520 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 3: Exactly? Look at you and.

31
00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 6: What is that? This is my show year old hat kid.

32
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:57,320
Speaker 6: These guys have bought me since like yeah.

33
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 5: They send you a brand new beautiful gee like seemingly

34
00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 5: every six weeks, which is amazing.

35
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:04,480
Speaker 3: All right, thanks to everybody for being with us.

36
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 5: You know, I love when the UFC goes middleweight main

37
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,000
Speaker 5: event into middleweight championship like this. I know there are

38
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 5: a lot of factors when it comes to the calendar

39
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 5: and matchmaking and everything else, but right to have this

40
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 5: result for Noswordini Mavov leading into UFC three twelve, it's

41
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 5: just spectacular. We'll get into all of that, of course

42
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 5: with Ken Flow. We got Ray Longo coming up. Brian

43
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 5: Petrie is back. These guys have eight picks and all

44
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,200
Speaker 5: of their bets for UFC three twelve and time permitting

45
00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:33,840
Speaker 5: and his schedule permitting. In Mexico City, Mexico, we will

46
00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 5: be joined by the former two time, UFC Bandamway Champion

47
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 5: Domina Cruz on the back end of the program as well.

48
00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:42,720
Speaker 5: But it is Monday, February third, twenty twenty five, Episode

00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 6: Eastern Main card on ESPN Plus.

54
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 5: Now, this is not a platform on which we complain

55
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,400
Speaker 5: about viewing times because a lot of our audience is

56
00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:06,840
Speaker 5: international and global and English and they don't want to

57
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 5: hear it, but can flow right watching on my cellular

58
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 5: telephone at noon pm Eastern.

59
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 3: We will take it every day of the week. Absolutely.

60
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,640
Speaker 6: It's typically our wives that complain about it, right, But no,

61
00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 6: it was great. It was great watching some high level

62
00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,240
Speaker 6: MMA on a Saturday afternoon. Doesn't get much better than that, man,

63
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,839
Speaker 6: and we had some great fights.

64
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 5: Great fights, great showcase for the UFC as usual. Nice

65
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 5: to get back into this cycle where we have back

66
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 5: to back events and that of course is going to

67
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 5: be the norm throughout the rest of this first quarter.

68
00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 5: Look pretty festive there in Saudi Arabia. As usual, you

69
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,960
Speaker 5: had power slap in the UFC and everything else. We

70
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 5: also will get into a lot of things that transpire

71
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 5: to the mixed martial arts world, Bryce Mitchell's comments, Dana

72
00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 5: White's comments on the back end, Yeom Belohovid's chiming in

73
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 5: and everything else. So let us get into the program

74
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 5: if we could. Headlines brought to you by Querbo. Now is

75
00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 5: a good time to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila.

76
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 5: Later in the program, we will take the first shot

77
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,080
Speaker 5: of the fight weekend, christ Dealino Live in the morning.

78
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,200
Speaker 5: Nothing like it Wow, UFC Fight Night out of Sonya

79
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 5: versus Imavov and it is Nasordin Imavov ken flow and

80
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 5: it did not take long. At the thirty second mark

81
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:19,159
Speaker 5: of round two, Lanza's shot sort of dovetailing with some

82
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 5: of your analysis as Israel out of Sonya was backing up.

83
00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 3: That was the beginning of the end.

84
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 5: Mark Goddard, I believe was the referee who stepped in

85
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 5: and we got a bona fide middleway contender or Nasordini

86
00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,600
Speaker 5: Mabov has a signature win and he is all the

87
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:31,680
Speaker 5: rage here on a Monday morning.

88
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 3: Yeah.

89
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,160
Speaker 6: Well, on the last podcast I said my Spidey senses

90
00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,680
Speaker 6: were tingling into that I didn't love this fight for

91
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 6: Israel out of Sonia. Why because Imavov is an absolute

92
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,000
Speaker 6: beast and he's really coming into his own right now,

93
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 6: and we've seen a little bit of a decline if

94
00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 6: you will, in Israel out of Sonya's game, and is

95
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 6: he still a fantastic fighter. I thought he actually had

96
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 6: a really solid round one where I thought he was winning.

97
00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 6: But in round two, you know, as I you know,

98
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 6: talked about in that little tell all in that little

99
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 6: leanback with the hands down, that is something that is

100
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 6: pretty common for a lot of the city kickboxing guys,

101
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 6: and Imovov has a style that can expose that pretty

102
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 6: well as he kind of charges forward and throws hopes

103
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 6: and overhands landed a big shot on Israel. Ota Sonya

104
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,640
Speaker 6: didn't put him out. Credit to Izzy, you wanted to

105
00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 6: keep on fighting, but he did get the job done.

106
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 6: What a performance there by Imovov.

107
00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:26,000
Speaker 5: So one of the thing I have in my notes

108
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 5: patterns and oftentimes when you have a champion that has

109
00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,040
Speaker 5: put all of this film on tape, right, drinkus du

110
00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 5: plus C and the lead up to UFC three twelve

111
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 5: and the countdown show sort of talked about some of

112
00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 5: his these tendencies that maybe he used against him in

113
00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 5: the finishing sequence when he beat him at UFC.

114
00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 3: Three to ZHO five.

115
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,840
Speaker 5: And I know a lot of fight fans and pundits,

116
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 5: and I think rightfully so at times jump to conclusions

117
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 5: on a Monday morning and say, as Luke Thomas and

118
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 5: I think others have that Israel Ado Sonya should retire.

119
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 5: But he certainly had moments in the drinkis du plus

120
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 5: c fight, certainly had moments early against this absolute killer

121
00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 5: Nosordini Mabob, whom we will get back to in a moment.

122
00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:06,000
Speaker 5: I just don't think he's necessarily done. Is he done

123
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:07,160
Speaker 5: being a world champion?

124
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:07,799
Speaker 3: Perhaps?

125
00:06:08,279 --> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 5: But to what extent now on the heels of a

126
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,640
Speaker 5: third straight loss, do you think israelae A Sonya is

127
00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,520
Speaker 5: done winning fights, are being competitive against the middleweight league.

128
00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 6: Gosh, you know, well, I'm a little biased here, if

129
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,560
Speaker 6: I'm being candid, I have a soft spot in my

130
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 6: heart for Israel out to Sonia, a guy that I

131
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,680
Speaker 6: talked to, you know, online a bunch. I still have

132
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,120
Speaker 6: not met him in person, but you know, used to

133
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 6: talk to him a lot before he was getting started

134
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,599
Speaker 6: in the UFC, and to see what he's accomplished in

135
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 6: this sport is just unbelievable. And I think that the

136
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,680
Speaker 6: hope for any MMA fighter, and I guess this goes

137
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 6: for any job, is that you take more from the

138
00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:48,480
Speaker 6: game than it takes from you, and that just isn't

139
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,520
Speaker 6: the reality for most. So is he done? I think

140
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:55,160
Speaker 6: you put it perfectly. I'm not sure, you know, he

141
00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:58,919
Speaker 6: can necessarily be a champion again, It's possible. He still

142
00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 6: is fighting at a high level, but when guys figure

143
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 6: you out, that's where you've got to be careful. So

144
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 6: it's it's extremely hard to reinvent yourself here after year,

145
00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,040
Speaker 6: especially when you've been on top for as long as

146
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 6: Israel how Asania has, So that's a little bit of

147
00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 6: a concern for me. You know, he's still a star

148
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 6: in the sport and the UFC can still use him

149
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:23,760
Speaker 6: to make a bunch of money. How much longer he

150
00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:25,840
Speaker 6: sticks around I don't know, or how long he should

151
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 6: be I don't know. But when you start to see decline,

152
00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 6: you start to wonder, Okay, well what am I fighting for?

153
00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 6: And you know, do do I want to get out

154
00:07:35,280 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 6: of the game before I get seriously hurt.

155
00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:39,560
Speaker 2: So I don't know.

156
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,160
Speaker 6: I mean, in Mava is a fantastic fighter. Losing to

157
00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 6: imv Off is there's you know, it's not embarrassing at all.

158
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 3: He's still very, very tough, So I don't know. It

159
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 3: was tough to watch him.

160
00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 6: I'm being honest to see as he go out like that,

161
00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 6: because I do really care for him as a fighter,

162
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,840
Speaker 6: and he's done so much for the sport as well.

163
00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:00,040
Speaker 5: So Laura Sanko said on the broadcast, one shot to

164
00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 5: kill a legend or whatever it was, and he said,

165
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,280
Speaker 5: I'm not dead yet. I believe in terms of Izzy's commitment,

166
00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 5: his discipline, his motivation, it's all still there. I think

167
00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:13,920
Speaker 5: his net worth ties into this. He comes from a

168
00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:17,920
Speaker 5: remarkable family. Absolutely love his sister deb and his parents,

169
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 5: whom we have sat down to. We sat down with

170
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,400
Speaker 5: his folks actually back in twenty nineteen and discussed the

171
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 5: pronunciation of his name and how they handled it in

172
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,440
Speaker 5: his kick bossing career and everything else. But you and

173
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 5: I both absolutely love this man. He screams legend. I

174
00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 5: know some people scoff when I suggest that is he

175
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:34,480
Speaker 5: has this Michael Jordan like Aura, But if you don't

176
00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:36,200
Speaker 5: want to take it from me, take it from Domina Cruz,

177
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 5: who had the chance to do a fighter meeting with

178
00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,480
Speaker 5: him for the first time I think maybe ever recently,

179
00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 5: and just was in total awe of sort of the

180
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:47,200
Speaker 5: spirituality and everything that was sort of exuding from this man,

181
00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 5: special man, special fighter. This is certainly not the note

182
00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 5: on which he is going to go out. I liked

183
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 5: him this weekend, you know, the odds maker suggests that

184
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 5: he was a two to one favorite. I still think

185
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:00,240
Speaker 5: he can be competitive, and I will say maybe either

186
00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 5: will be Kenny, and perhaps competitives not the right adjective.

187
00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:05,839
Speaker 5: I think it'll win fights against a lot of guys

188
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,120
Speaker 5: in the top ten. But in terms of his chin right,

189
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 5: I thought that stoppage was fine. But when he has

190
00:09:11,920 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 5: been stopped by Alex Padeta and now No Sordini Mabob,

191
00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 5: it's not as though he is twitching on the canvas.

192
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 5: Sure he has in recovery mode, I think immediately in

193
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 5: both of these instances, even if the result was an

194
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:26,439
Speaker 5: eventuality and it was the beginning of the end and

195
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,520
Speaker 5: all of that, you know, So I still I don't

196
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,160
Speaker 5: know if you have anything for us on the chin,

197
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 5: But I don't know. I still think he can be

198
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 5: He can be a real factor, and even if you

199
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 5: don't have a huge appetite for him in like a

200
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:42,080
Speaker 5: rematch with DVP right now to fight Brendan Allen, you know,

201
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:43,200
Speaker 5: I think that's a fun fight.

202
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:44,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, listen, I agree.

203
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,720
Speaker 6: I think that you know, those are shots or the

204
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,080
Speaker 6: shot that imov Off landed on him are shots that

205
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 6: would have hurt many of the top middleweights in the

206
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:55,600
Speaker 6: world no matter what, no matter how fresh your chin

207
00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 6: is or not. So I think it was just kind

208
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,760
Speaker 6: of you know, immov Off connecting at the right time,

209
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 6: unfortunately potentially exposing that vulnerability of Israel to Sonia.

210
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,240
Speaker 3: But I think he'll be back.

211
00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 6: I certainly think he can continue to compete at a

212
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,480
Speaker 6: high level now. Michael Jordan could have probably done that

213
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,920
Speaker 6: another couple of years as well. You know, whether you

214
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,280
Speaker 6: need to or not, I don't know. I think Israel

215
00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 6: at Asni is such a talented and intelligent guy that

216
00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:25,520
Speaker 6: there's a lot of other things that he can do

217
00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:27,360
Speaker 6: outside of the sport as well. I think he'd be

218
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:31,120
Speaker 6: a fantastic commentator as well, have his own show.

219
00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:32,160
Speaker 3: Whatever he wants to do.

220
00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 6: He could do it.

221
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 5: The world is his His freestyle ben or YouTube channel

222
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 5: has absolutely exploded. I think there are some real estate

223
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 5: investments as well that project to do quite well. So

224
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 5: I don't think that money is going to be an issue,

225
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,559
Speaker 5: and I think he has been paid handsomely. Part of

226
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,400
Speaker 5: the issue, and I promise we will get to Nossordini Maba.

227
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 5: But part of the issue is legacy, right, And it's

228
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,040
Speaker 5: not as though there are any easy outs in this one

229
00:10:57,120 --> 00:10:59,840
Speaker 5: hundred and eighty five pound division, right, Like, even if

230
00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:03,319
Speaker 5: you do a Paolo Costa rematch or anyone you want

231
00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:04,840
Speaker 5: to pick out of that one hundred and eighty five

232
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,480
Speaker 5: pound of vision can Float's not as though they are

233
00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 5: easy out. So if you don't want to, you know,

234
00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,520
Speaker 5: risk ending your career with four straight l's or whatever

235
00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,360
Speaker 5: it is, and you don't necessarily need the money, you know,

236
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 5: maybe this is an okay note upon which to go out.

237
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,120
Speaker 5: You know, it seems like Dustin Poirier is going to

238
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 5: have one final fight, one final swan song. Some fighters,

239
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:26,720
Speaker 5: I think want to have that. I think some fighters

240
00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 5: don't necessarily pine to have all that, you know, attention

241
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,240
Speaker 5: and pageantry on the way out, It'll be interesting to

242
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:34,000
Speaker 5: see what happens.

243
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 3: But uh, also, I'll add this as the last note.

244
00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 6: He's fought every single person in that division that really

245
00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,560
Speaker 6: matters at this point, so I don't know if he

246
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:46,839
Speaker 6: has anything to gain, so that might be more of

247
00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:49,679
Speaker 6: an issue. I think Molle more than anything else for him,

248
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 6: is going I already beat all these other guys that

249
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,240
Speaker 6: I may have to fight. There's no one else out

250
00:11:54,240 --> 00:11:57,559
Speaker 6: there that's really interesting enough for me unless it's potentially

251
00:11:57,600 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 6: for something to lead to an eventual title shot. With

252
00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,880
Speaker 6: now three fight, the three losses in a row, you know,

253
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:04,959
Speaker 6: that makes it a little bit more challenging. So yeah, no,

254
00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 6: I'm curious to see how he proceeds.

255
00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 5: I got to think though, the internal metrics too. Kenny

256
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:12,959
Speaker 5: suggests that he's a top three to five UFC superstar

257
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 5: and pay per view draw and so that could mean that,

258
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 5: you know, they pay him a really good show rate

259
00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:23,240
Speaker 5: to continue to either headline fight nights or to be

260
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 5: co main event on pay per view. But regardless, if

261
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:29,760
Speaker 5: this indeed is the end of Israelata Sonia as bona

262
00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 5: fide middleweight title contender, what an absolute run. What are

263
00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,720
Speaker 5: the greatest middleweight champions of all time future UFC Hall

264
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 5: of Famer, to be sure, and there was a time

265
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 5: where he was projecting to go down and surpass Anderson

266
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,720
Speaker 5: Silva as the greatest middleweight champion of all time, even

267
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 5: if most would agree he came up a little bit

268
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 5: short in that endeavor. All right, Nas sordine E Mavov

269
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 5: can beat you in a lot of different ways and

270
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:51,439
Speaker 5: not a guy I would think that a lot of

271
00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:54,200
Speaker 5: middleweights would want to see showing up in their bracket.

272
00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,960
Speaker 5: I think it's fascinating as we're on the cusp of

273
00:12:56,960 --> 00:13:00,440
Speaker 5: this middleweight championship rematch to think about how he would

274
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,599
Speaker 5: do in a rematch with Sean Strickland, or how he

275
00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 5: would do against streaks due PLASTI but what did you

276
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:06,880
Speaker 5: make of non Sordini mavab on the ascent here where

277
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 5: the big signature went over the weekend.

278
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,240
Speaker 3: That's going to be a confidence builder?

279
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 6: Huh Yeah, No, Listen, he's been getting so much better

280
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,640
Speaker 6: in regards to the you know, full package of mixed

281
00:13:16,679 --> 00:13:20,400
Speaker 6: martial arts skills that he shows inside the octagon, whether

282
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,440
Speaker 6: it's his striking in the clinches, striking from the outside,

283
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,600
Speaker 6: or his ability to stop takedowns or get back to

284
00:13:26,679 --> 00:13:29,679
Speaker 6: his feet if he does get taken down, his ability

285
00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,599
Speaker 6: to control if he's in guard. He has shown some,

286
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,560
Speaker 6: you know, some skills that have really improved since when

287
00:13:36,600 --> 00:13:39,679
Speaker 6: he first debuted. Also has shown a lot of maturity

288
00:13:39,679 --> 00:13:42,920
Speaker 6: and composure over the last couple of years as well.

289
00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,240
Speaker 6: So I think he's supposed to really make a serious

290
00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:49,840
Speaker 6: run at the belt, and I wouldn't rule out that

291
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 6: he's capable of getting it. He's going to be a

292
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 6: problem for a lot of people out there.

293
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:54,240
Speaker 3: John.

294
00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:58,000
Speaker 6: Physically, he's impressive. He continues to work on all of

295
00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:01,960
Speaker 6: his skills everywhere. He's being put into a lot of

296
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,319
Speaker 6: these main event spots, which is going to give you

297
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:08,080
Speaker 6: a lot of confidence and experience. So I'm excited. I'm

298
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 6: excited to see what he does next, because yeah, I

299
00:14:12,679 --> 00:14:13,560
Speaker 6: love watching a fight.

300
00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:13,800
Speaker 3: Man.

301
00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:18,120
Speaker 5: So he just took out a guy who is one

302
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,480
Speaker 5: of the greatest champions this division has seen in whatever

303
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 5: form you want to suggest at Asanya is in at

304
00:14:24,400 --> 00:14:26,400
Speaker 5: present right, a guy who can match a lot of

305
00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 5: the size that he Mavov has in this middleweight division.

306
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:29,440
Speaker 4: Right.

307
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,800
Speaker 5: If memory serves that lost to Sean Strickland was at

308
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:33,000
Speaker 5: two hundred and five pounds.

309
00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:34,480
Speaker 3: Perhaps Cody could check me on that.

310
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,920
Speaker 5: But in terms of the future for Noasordini Mavov, right,

311
00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:40,560
Speaker 5: I did a poll question for the podcast as to

312
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,480
Speaker 5: who he would fight next, and I didn't include Hamza

313
00:14:43,560 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 5: Chimayev because all indications are that even though Hamza Chimaya

314
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,760
Speaker 5: is not in Australia to back up for the main event,

315
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 5: I think Kyo Bohalio might be going.

316
00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,840
Speaker 3: I don't know if he's actually on the corner audio sheet.

317
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 5: I should probably check that right, but I'm not even

318
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,280
Speaker 5: considering Hamza Chimaia as a next opponent for Noasordini Mavov

319
00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,720
Speaker 5: because I think she might going to be next for

320
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:03,760
Speaker 5: the belt. So whole question for the Anakin Fluent podcast

321
00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 5: after his signature win Kenny over israelat a Sonya, who

322
00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:10,520
Speaker 5: would you like to see nas Ordini Mavov fight next?

323
00:15:10,680 --> 00:15:15,880
Speaker 5: Kyle Bohalio, Robert Whittaker, the winner of D d P

324
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 5: Shawn Strickland or the loser of D d P Sean Strickland.

325
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 5: And you can say kam Zatchim I've been a middleweight

326
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,680
Speaker 5: title eliminator and you can get strong disagreement from me

327
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,960
Speaker 5: on that. But any thoughts as to what you would

328
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 5: do promotionally if you're a Sean Shelby McMahon and Dana

329
00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:34,960
Speaker 5: White and crew, right, well, you want to make the

330
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:39,120
Speaker 5: best fights possible that give two rising stars the opportunity

331
00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:41,600
Speaker 5: to fight for the belt sometimes, but sometimes you want

332
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 5: options as a promoter or a matchmaker, and I think

333
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,520
Speaker 5: in this case, I would not want to cancel out

334
00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 5: two guys in Kyo, Bohalio and Imovov.

335
00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 6: I like both of those options in the future. So

336
00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 6: I think that perhaps the loser of DDP and Strickland

337
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 6: makes a lot of sense. I think, you know, not

338
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,720
Speaker 6: only would you have an exciting fight, but you know

339
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,640
Speaker 6: you create that story as a guy who has beaten

340
00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:11,400
Speaker 6: a former champion, two former champions now in the middleweight division.

341
00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:14,240
Speaker 6: And yeah, so I kind of like that better as

342
00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,560
Speaker 6: an option. I like the way you lay that out.

343
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 5: And I think the good news for imavav and I

344
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,240
Speaker 5: reference it off the top of the show, is just

345
00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,160
Speaker 5: when this fight is happening, because you are just so

346
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 5: relevant in this conversation. Now, when we go off the air,

347
00:16:27,320 --> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 5: oftentimes our producers Zach Candido, Michael Laplant, they build a

348
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 5: b roll package and they're not the ones building a

349
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:36,000
Speaker 5: shout out to our entire production team, but they'll build

350
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 5: a b roll package footage of the next middleweight title contender.

351
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 3: Right.

352
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,160
Speaker 5: So I can tell you without looking at the format

353
00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 5: that after we wrap duplesse and you know where I'm

354
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 5: going Strickland act to right, we're gonna have Hamzat Chimaia

355
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:50,520
Speaker 5: B role there. But there's a chance they had some

356
00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 5: no Sordini Mavov B role and had this fight happen

357
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 5: maybe several weeks ago.

358
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:54,840
Speaker 3: Maybe they don't do that.

359
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:57,360
Speaker 5: So I think the timeline, the calendar really plays out

360
00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 5: well for him. I think if Duples loses to Strickland

361
00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 5: and the result is conclusive, I think Drake is due

362
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 5: plus C and Nosordini mobob in a main event, a

363
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 5: true eliminator where there's a title fight on the line.

364
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're salivating.

365
00:17:11,160 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 6: I know I'm salivating for that. And I'm also because

366
00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:17,320
Speaker 6: of Strickland and I'm not Jamayah and the words they've

367
00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 6: had back and forth, the fact that they're former training partners.

368
00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:23,720
Speaker 6: But right a middlewake division man has never been better.

369
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,400
Speaker 5: And I feel like I was saying that eighteen months ago,

370
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,680
Speaker 5: but right now, you have Jared Candadiir versus Gregory RoboCop Rodriguez.

371
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 3: That is February fifteenth, the main event.

372
00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:37,680
Speaker 5: And let us be clear, RoboCop is another guy I

373
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 5: assure you you don't want showing up in your bracket.

374
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 2: Right.

375
00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:46,000
Speaker 5: He's a terminator, He's got chokes, undeniable knockout power, strength

376
00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:48,120
Speaker 5: and conditioning at the Institute of Human Performance. We'll see

377
00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 5: if you can get past Jared Cannadiir, Brendon Allen, Fined,

378
00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:55,919
Speaker 5: Anthony Fluffy Hernandez, Anthony fucking either. February twenty second, he

379
00:17:55,960 --> 00:17:59,760
Speaker 5: fights Pa Marvin vctory Roman Deleedze March fifteenth. Has been

380
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,679
Speaker 5: a long time since we've seen Marvin Vittori and me,

381
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,640
Speaker 5: oh dude, So Cody chimes in here mishall today versus

382
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,959
Speaker 5: a Boost Maga Metov April twenty six, the last up

383
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 5: Boost Maga Metov. I saw Kenny look back, the greatest

384
00:18:12,040 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 5: been a weight of all time. So good, I almost

385
00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:21,080
Speaker 5: spilled my my Quervo traditional Crystallino. More on that later

386
00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,080
Speaker 5: in the program, But yes, I mean there is no

387
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 5: curbing my enthusiasm for the UFC's midleweight division at present.

388
00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 5: All right, congratulations to Nossordini Mavov. Maybe we'll have him

389
00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 5: on a future episode of the Anak and Florian podcast.

390
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:38,520
Speaker 5: We are going to try to get more into the

391
00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 5: fighters here in twenty twenty five. I'd like to get

392
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:43,440
Speaker 5: your thoughts if I could on the co headline or

393
00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 5: the co main event. Michael Venom Page over Shara Bullet

394
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:50,280
Speaker 5: Maga Metov unanimous decision thirty twenty seven times to twenty

395
00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 5: nine to twenty eight from the dissenting judge. Big win

396
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:55,439
Speaker 5: for Michael Venom. Page.

397
00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:56,679
Speaker 3: Your thoughts on that can.

398
00:18:56,520 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 6: Flow The most difficult guys to prepare for still in

399
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 6: twenty twenty five and mixed martial arts or the karate

400
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:09,280
Speaker 6: guys with tremendous footwork, and that is Michael ven and Page.

401
00:19:09,560 --> 00:19:10,120
Speaker 3: My goodness.

402
00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 6: And then you add in the fact that this guy

403
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:18,119
Speaker 6: is absolutely massive, crazy reach, and he's extremely fast, still

404
00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 6: very physically capable, although he's maybe a little bit later,

405
00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:25,200
Speaker 6: you know, there's a late part of his career. And man,

406
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 6: he looked absolutely fantastic. I think matchups make fights. I

407
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,040
Speaker 6: think he liked this matchup for a reason. It's why

408
00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 6: he went up to one hundred and eighty five pounds.

409
00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 6: And yeah, I mean, he just created fits for for shaerpof.

410
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,240
Speaker 6: I mean, he just didn't know what the heck to do. So,

411
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,320
Speaker 6: you know, I think that you know he was he

412
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,720
Speaker 6: was luring him into traps. He was like a ghost anytime.

413
00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 6: You know, Shara Bullet was trying to move forward. And yeah,

414
00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:56,920
Speaker 6: I think this was the best performance of his short

415
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:58,240
Speaker 6: UFC career so far.

416
00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 5: So oftentimes we will say to win age as well

417
00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 5: or ages gracefully because a fighter like Mooin Gaffer Rob

418
00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:07,760
Speaker 5: all of a sudden looks like a world beater and

419
00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 5: it's like, hey, I beat that guy back in the day. Now,

420
00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,680
Speaker 5: you could argue that since MVP beat Kevin Holland, that

421
00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,960
Speaker 5: win his long win coming into this one in the

422
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,680
Speaker 5: UFC hadn't aged all that well because Kevin Holland has

423
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,440
Speaker 5: lost four of five fights in a row.

424
00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 2: Right.

425
00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:23,399
Speaker 5: Then he goes in and he fights Ian Maschado Gary

426
00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 5: without hesitation, gets out grappled and out wrestled, and then

427
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 5: comes back and beats a guy who is getting a

428
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:33,080
Speaker 5: promotional push and beats him in a dominant way. Very

429
00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,440
Speaker 5: difficult guy to fight is shar A Bullet, Right, And

430
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,560
Speaker 5: now MVP goes back to one hundred and seventy pounds,

431
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,399
Speaker 5: and I don't know. I think public perception is probably

432
00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,720
Speaker 5: split as to just how successful he can be. But

433
00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 5: you know, am I going to use the word bracket again?

434
00:20:47,400 --> 00:20:50,000
Speaker 5: Like Cody, give me the Welterway top ten, right, Kenny, Like,

435
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:51,720
Speaker 5: there are a lot of guys who are going to

436
00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,680
Speaker 5: have a lot of difficulty fighting Michael venam Page, whether

437
00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 5: he's thirty seven, forty two or otherwise, there's.

438
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:58,320
Speaker 3: No question about that.

439
00:20:58,720 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 6: I think that this also be a nice confidence builder

440
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:02,720
Speaker 6: for him here.

441
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 3: You know, Shay, a bullet is a problem.

442
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 6: Maga Metov can give a lot of strikers and a

443
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:12,159
Speaker 6: lot of different mixed martial artists fits himself, but this

444
00:21:12,280 --> 00:21:15,040
Speaker 6: is a guy that in MVP that you really can't

445
00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 6: prepare for. There's very few guys physically who can replicate that,

446
00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,120
Speaker 6: and very few guys physically that can replicate that. There's

447
00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,679
Speaker 6: very few guys technically that can replicate that. He's just

448
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 6: such a savvy operator on the feet, my goodness, one

449
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:35,439
Speaker 6: of the best faints in the game period. So you

450
00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:36,240
Speaker 6: are seeing.

451
00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 5: Kenny that Welterweight top fifteen populated, So MVP there at

452
00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:43,920
Speaker 5: number fifteen in the world, Steven wonder Boy Thompson is eleventh.

453
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 5: I think maybe you could do something like that. You know,

454
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 5: there are other matchups. Maybe Kolbe Covington would not be

455
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 5: one that you would be itching to make necessarily, right, Yeah,

456
00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 5: you see joking Buckley, they're not going to fight down

457
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 5: to number fifteen in the world, Kenny. Is there any

458
00:21:58,400 --> 00:21:59,840
Speaker 5: name that you would pluck off the page there? I

459
00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 5: think think Michael Morales and Gilbert Reinho Burns might have

460
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:05,600
Speaker 5: some business to attend to any thoughts as you look

461
00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,199
Speaker 5: at that Weltway top fifteen, because MVP said he's got

462
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 5: some business to attend, So I got to think it's

463
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 5: going to be one of those names you see right there.

464
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,080
Speaker 6: Yes, sir Well, I would say, you know, the Wonder

465
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 6: Boy fight is one that really fascinates me. And I

466
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,239
Speaker 6: know they're kind of boys and they both come from

467
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 6: a karate background, but man, what a fight that would be.

468
00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,560
Speaker 6: I'd be fascinated by that one, you know, just seeing

469
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 6: Luke Vincente Luke right there at fourteen. I think that's

470
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 6: a fight that makes a whole lot of sense. And

471
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,080
Speaker 6: Michael Page would certainly have to keep his wrestling defense

472
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:35,159
Speaker 6: in order there. But Luke, you know, has shown that

473
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:37,840
Speaker 6: he could still get it done, so I think that

474
00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,400
Speaker 6: would be a really fun fight.

475
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,680
Speaker 5: MVP is not talking like a guy who is obsessing

476
00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 5: over the world title, but perhaps that my factor into

477
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,639
Speaker 5: his decision. Either way, he set himself up for a

478
00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,280
Speaker 5: big fight and we look forward to the rebuild for

479
00:22:50,240 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 5: Shara Bullet. All right, what did you make of Sergey

480
00:22:52,359 --> 00:22:55,399
Speaker 5: Pavlovich's win over Biggie Boy Jarzinio Rosenstrike. A lot of

481
00:22:56,080 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 5: things were made of just prioritizing a win, and I

482
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 5: think rightfully so right thirty twenty seven times three, and

483
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,640
Speaker 5: I do think Kenny, there are times in a mixed

484
00:23:04,640 --> 00:23:07,480
Speaker 5: martial arts career, whether you're a heavyweight or a flyway,

485
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,960
Speaker 5: where you're searching for a green stripe, you got to

486
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,000
Speaker 5: get it by any means necessary, and whether it's the

487
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 5: fight that fans expect or not. When you win thirty

488
00:23:14,520 --> 00:23:17,200
Speaker 5: to twenty seven against a guy in Biggie Boy who

489
00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:22,000
Speaker 5: was building and crescendoing and on the incline, still, I

490
00:23:22,040 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 5: think it's a big win for Pavlovich and he keeps

491
00:23:23,880 --> 00:23:25,560
Speaker 5: himself at the very least in the top five and

492
00:23:25,600 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 5: in the mix.

493
00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,640
Speaker 6: I think it was a big win for that reason, John,

494
00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:31,199
Speaker 6: and I also think it was a big win for

495
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 6: me and analyzing what he was out out there doing technically.

496
00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:40,000
Speaker 6: To me, I think Pavlovitch showed a lot more composure here.

497
00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,320
Speaker 6: I don't know if it's a matter of him maybe

498
00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:44,959
Speaker 6: realizing that he can get hurt on the feet and

499
00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 6: you know that he has to be a little bit

500
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 6: more mindful there and more technical, but his entries, his

501
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,520
Speaker 6: ability to get in and get out just seemed way

502
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:56,680
Speaker 6: sharper and way smarter. He was patient, he wasn't forcing

503
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 6: a knockout, he wasn't, you know, going at a pace

504
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 6: that was not sustainable. He just seemed really cool, calm

505
00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:06,440
Speaker 6: and comfortable throughout. Mixed in his takedowns at the right

506
00:24:06,480 --> 00:24:09,800
Speaker 6: times as well. So we saw his full skills, his

507
00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:12,080
Speaker 6: full set of skills on Saturday night. And you know,

508
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 6: I think both guys showed a lot of respect early

509
00:24:14,600 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 6: in that first round, but I think Pavolotch started to

510
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 6: let loose a little bit more as he moved towards

511
00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,159
Speaker 6: the fight and felt more comfortable, and I thought it

512
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:26,959
Speaker 6: was a fantastic experience, you know, performance, maybe not his

513
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 6: best performance as far as excitement or getting these crazy

514
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:32,320
Speaker 6: knockouts like he's known for. But I think this was

515
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 6: important for his development.

516
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:37,760
Speaker 5: Johnnys Vanisius Olivera and said Normago Metov competed in the

517
00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 5: Fight of the Night and I was watching at that

518
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,320
Speaker 5: point with closed captions. Can flow, So I still don't know.

519
00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,159
Speaker 5: I'm looking it up right now if it's loke or

520
00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 5: lock Dog, but either way it's Vanisius Olivera.

521
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:46,840
Speaker 3: Can flow.

522
00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,520
Speaker 5: You're shaking your head because of some Normago Metov coin

523
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 5: or talk to me.

524
00:24:50,960 --> 00:24:54,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely for that I was. I was definitely really

525
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 6: bullish on said Nermaga Medov. And I thought he looked fantastic,

526
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,320
Speaker 6: as I knew he would in round one, and he

527
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:01,600
Speaker 6: has so many skills.

528
00:25:01,680 --> 00:25:01,920
Speaker 3: John.

529
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:04,760
Speaker 6: He was moving, he was grooving, he was faint, and

530
00:25:04,840 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 6: he was finding a lot of success against the less

531
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 6: technical Venisius Olivera. The problem is Olivera, one of the

532
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:15,439
Speaker 6: largest bantam weights in the world right now, is so

533
00:25:15,760 --> 00:25:19,760
Speaker 6: damn game and so physically powerful and always comes in shape.

534
00:25:20,160 --> 00:25:23,199
Speaker 6: That late in the fight, I started to get very nervous.

535
00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 6: As we moved into round three, I said, this guy,

536
00:25:25,320 --> 00:25:27,359
Speaker 6: this Brazilian guy's going to steal it. From me, isn't he?

537
00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:28,920
Speaker 3: And sure enough he did.

538
00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,800
Speaker 6: Now I think Nirmalga MetOp has a case for maybe

539
00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,080
Speaker 6: winning that fight. But I have no problems with Olivera.

540
00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 6: Even though I picked the Russian, I thought OLIVERA just

541
00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 6: really had more of a sense of urgency to win

542
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,280
Speaker 6: that fight, was landing more shots. Both guys were sloppy

543
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 6: throughout said more from a standpoint of maybe just not

544
00:25:47,720 --> 00:25:50,280
Speaker 6: coming in great shape or maybe not pacing himself very well.

545
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:54,919
Speaker 6: That's been kind of a vulnerability for him in past fights.

546
00:25:55,480 --> 00:25:58,439
Speaker 6: But Olivera man as game as game as it gets,

547
00:25:58,480 --> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 6: and he stole another one here. Man, what a performance.

548
00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:05,119
Speaker 5: Cody wrote in the chat, it's fucking lock dog because

549
00:26:05,160 --> 00:26:06,919
Speaker 5: he is a lock now. I did just listen to

550
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 5: the file, and yes he says lock dog twice, which

551
00:26:09,600 --> 00:26:12,240
Speaker 5: is outstanding because I feel like I have dropped a

552
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,679
Speaker 5: lock dog on an open microphone before. All Right, Ray

553
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:20,359

Speaker 2: Oh wow, okay, let's do it.

611
00:28:57,320 --> 00:29:00,560
Speaker 5: So where were you on Saturday after or noon for

612
00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:03,120
Speaker 5: the matinee? I mean I felt a little bit spoiled

613
00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 5: getting that main card at noon Eastern. I don't know

614
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,400
Speaker 5: how that messed with your Saturday or or if you

615
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,160
Speaker 5: liked it as much as Kenl and I did, getting

616
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:10,200
Speaker 5: live fights and mill to day.

617
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 2: Uh man, I kind of like him.

618
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 7: The ideal time for me is like they started four

619
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 7: and the main card starts at seven. For me, that's

620
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 7: because I met Im at the gym, so I kind

621
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,320
Speaker 7: of have to stop and look and I'm teaching guys

622
00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,760
Speaker 7: to spar and I'm not watching the sparring because you know,

623
00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 7: the Izzy fight is on. Uh So it's a little

624
00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 7: that part I don't like, you know what I mean.

625
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,920
Speaker 7: I like to sit and actually watch the fights.

626
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:38,360
Speaker 6: And I would imagine being in the gym.

627
00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,760
Speaker 5: There's no way for you to avoid spoilers and watch

628
00:29:40,800 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 5: it later without knowing the results right now.

629
00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 2: Impossible?

630
00:29:44,480 --> 00:29:47,840
Speaker 5: All right, all right, sorry, I mean I understand.

631
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 2: Holy croach, what's he on this morning? Kenny? What do

Speaker 5: My mug says rooms, that's that? He that?

646
00:30:32,560 --> 00:30:35,640
Speaker 5: a huge, huge win for him against the former champions

647
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 5: are a lot of sonia. To what extent were you

648
00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 5: able to see the four and a half minute fight

649
00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 5: while you were cross training?

650
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:42,080
Speaker 2: That fight?

651
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,200
Speaker 7: I saw we had to stop and watch that fight,

652
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,840
Speaker 7: so yeah, phenomenal. Oh you know, is he I don't know, man,

653
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,840
Speaker 7: it's it's a tough thing. Once you lose, Once you've

654
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:54,560
Speaker 7: been on top of that mountain and you lose a

655
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,120
Speaker 7: couple of times, Man, it is so hard to get back,

656
00:30:57,920 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 7: Isn't that funny?

657
00:30:58,560 --> 00:30:58,760
Speaker 2: Kenny?

658
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 7: It's like one fight, you know, like one or two fights,

659
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 7: and that's it. You're on a roll.

660
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 2: But I don't know.

661
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 7: I have to think it's you know, you become content,

662
00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 7: you know, you have some money. You maybe were burnt

663
00:31:12,120 --> 00:31:17,120
Speaker 7: out from fighting so often. But for whatever the reason is, he's.

664
00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,440
Speaker 2: Going to have a hard time winning the big fights

665
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:19,080
Speaker 2: at this point.

666
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, you can rise so quickly and really decline so quickly.

667
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,880
Speaker 3: Ray, So is that what you think it is?

668
00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:29,960
Speaker 6: Do you think it's maybe a loss of motivation perhaps,

669
00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 6: or that maybe he's a little too comfortable.

670
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:36,840
Speaker 7: I believe with every single one of those cases that's

671
00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 7: what it is.

672
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 2: That's just obviously a theory.

673
00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 7: But like I always said, the fight could have kept

674
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,040
Speaker 7: widenman in his mother's basement.

675
00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:43,920
Speaker 2: I don't think he was.

676
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,719
Speaker 7: Losing, you know, but once you get out, you have

677
00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 7: a couple of houses, you know, the kids have grown up,

678
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:55,120
Speaker 7: perspective change, your outlook on life changes, and you know

679
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,520
Speaker 7: your brain still is telling you this is what I do.

680
00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 7: That's all you know how to do, so you keep doing.

681
00:32:00,160 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 7: But it's just it has to be a mental thing.

682
00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:09,040
Speaker 7: It's not unless unless the guys are injured. But you know,

683
00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 7: I mean you we kind is he kind of alluded to,

684
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 7: like what he fought a lot before, is you know

685
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:15,840
Speaker 7: a couple of.

686
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:17,600
Speaker 2: Times right, he wanted to take some time off.

687
00:32:17,680 --> 00:32:20,640
Speaker 7: And maybe you get burnt out, maybe your body just

688
00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:22,760
Speaker 7: can't take it, you know, you start getting older. It

689
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:25,600
Speaker 7: depends on where you are in your career. But I

690
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:29,640
Speaker 7: still think it has to be mental, really like really mental.

691
00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,320
Speaker 6: You know, So, do you think it's it's time for

692
00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 6: him to retire? I know that, you know, John always

693
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,200
Speaker 6: says we're not in the business of retiring.

694
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,880
Speaker 3: Fighters, but did do you think it might be that time?

695
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 7: Depends on what your perspective is. Is your perspective to

696
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,920
Speaker 7: make money, then don't retire. If your perspective is to

697
00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 7: win and get back to the you know, you think

698
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 7: you're you know, you're a champigain. I think at this

699
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:55,440
Speaker 7: point I'd have to say retire, But he look he

700
00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 7: looks good enough where he shouldn't retire. But it's all

701
00:32:58,440 --> 00:33:00,640
Speaker 7: going to depend on the fights. They give, you know,

702
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:04,640
Speaker 7: those those high level fights. Now, maybe he just can't

703
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:07,520
Speaker 7: get up for anymore. I mean, I think he's pretty articulate.

704
00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 7: I think he could tell you. Eugene has a good

705
00:33:11,040 --> 00:33:13,600
Speaker 7: feeling on what's going on. It's only the guys that

706
00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 7: really know what's going on and what's transparent. We don't

707
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,600
Speaker 7: get to see all of that, you know, so people

708
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 7: know one way or the other. But no, I'm sure

709
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 7: he's making huge money, So why not, you know, make

710
00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:28,280
Speaker 7: the money and support your family.

711
00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 5: Oh, there's no doubt he's one of the most handsomely

712
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 5: paid guys on the roster. But you touched on a

713
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,720
Speaker 5: number of different things there, and you do notice how

714
00:33:35,720 --> 00:33:39,240
Speaker 5: immediately the conversation does shift here to the losing fighter

715
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,920
Speaker 5: out of sany I want to get your thoughts Onny

716
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 5: Mavov on the back end in terms of his ceiling

717
00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:50,040
Speaker 5: at middleweight. But the word hunger, right, Aaron Blanchefield is desperate,

718
00:33:50,240 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 5: Grant Dawson is desperate, Nasorgini Mavov is desperate to win

719
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,520
Speaker 5: a world championship. And I don't even know the extent

720
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,680
Speaker 5: to which those fighters think about money. I know it's

721
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:02,040
Speaker 5: inexorably linked to the world championship. But is he can

722
00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,920
Speaker 5: have the motivation Kennyan ready to get through the training sessions.

723
00:34:04,960 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 5: Maybe they are of a lesser quality than Nosordini Mavovs

724
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 5: because he is completely hell bent and obsessed upon winning

725
00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,560
Speaker 5: the world title. But I don't believe it's a lack

726
00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 5: of motivation or hours spent preparing for the competition for

727
00:34:18,160 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 5: is he ray at all?

728
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:19,879
Speaker 2: Yeah?

729
00:34:19,960 --> 00:34:22,120
Speaker 7: You know the way I always look at it, John,

730
00:34:22,239 --> 00:34:26,200
Speaker 7: is that you know, how would that fight, how would

731
00:34:26,239 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 7: that fight have gone like four years ago?

732
00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,400
Speaker 5: Well, are you talking about a prime no Sordini Mavov

733
00:34:32,440 --> 00:34:36,239
Speaker 5: at that point against a Yeah, Yeah, I.

734
00:34:36,200 --> 00:34:36,640
Speaker 2: Don't know that.

735
00:34:37,600 --> 00:34:40,640
Speaker 7: That's Yeah, that's the crazy part to me, because I

736
00:34:40,680 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 7: know there were guys that like Chris Loster, that he

737
00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:46,080
Speaker 7: would have never lost to on the come up.

738
00:34:46,160 --> 00:34:48,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't believe he would have. Yeah.

739
00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:49,880
Speaker 3: No, And I think I know what you're alluding to.

740
00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 6: And it's tough to say, but I think if there's

741
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 6: a physical decline in Israel to Soigna, would you say

742
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:57,520
Speaker 6: that to that? Is that what you're trying to say?

743
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,960
Speaker 6: That's what I see. I don't see necessarily a guy

744
00:35:00,120 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 6: that's like I don't want it anymore, or I don't

745
00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:04,960
Speaker 6: want to train hard anymore. I'm just kind of relaxing

746
00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,359
Speaker 6: for my fighting. I think he's training very hard, in fact,

747
00:35:07,400 --> 00:35:09,440
Speaker 6: trying to do whatever he can to get back to

748
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 6: that level he had before. But we can't forget that

749
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,359
Speaker 6: this guy came from a high level kickboxing background, right,

750
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,160
Speaker 6: So before those high level pro kickboxing fights, he had

751
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 6: a lot of amateur fights. And then there's you know,

752
00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:23,319
Speaker 6: obviously they're preparing for the MMA prior to get into

753
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 6: the UFC. There's the training and preparation for this. He's

754
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:29,160
Speaker 6: been hit by Alex padeda several times, right, So I

755
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:31,919
Speaker 6: mean this is uh, you know, those that will take

756
00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,040
Speaker 6: the fight out of you. I don't care who you are,

757
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,640
Speaker 6: we're all human and and and that will take you,

758
00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:38,799
Speaker 6: you know, take it out of you.

759
00:35:38,800 --> 00:35:39,759
Speaker 3: There's no question about it.

760
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,400
Speaker 6: So that that's why I see a physical decline. And

761
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 6: now I think it's up to him as of either

762
00:35:44,640 --> 00:35:47,279
Speaker 6: he accepts that and says, okay, I accept that, and

763
00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 6: now I got to take smart fights, or he says

764
00:35:51,000 --> 00:35:54,359
Speaker 6: I gave my best. I achieved what less than one

765
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,080
Speaker 6: percent of the population would ever do in this sport.

766
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:58,759
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go do something else.

767
00:35:59,719 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 7: Yeah, all right, Look, I think it's everything has to

768
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,760
Speaker 7: meet together. You're getting old, there's a physical decline, there's

769
00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,720
Speaker 7: maybe not the motivation you had. It's everything coming together

770
00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:14,600
Speaker 7: and hitting at that point. I think that's what happens

771
00:36:14,600 --> 00:36:17,160
Speaker 7: to all of these guys. I think, Look, most of

772
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,560
Speaker 7: the stuff is antidotal. We can't really tell exactly. So

773
00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:24,879
Speaker 7: I just from me being around, that's what I come

774
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:27,759
Speaker 7: up with. I see that, you know, people become comfortable,

775
00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 7: they liked fight, and they still want to do it.

776
00:36:30,680 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 7: But it's there's something that's not the same. It's just

777
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:38,319
Speaker 7: I and it has to be more mental than it

778
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 7: is even physical unless there was a physical you know,

779
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:43,239
Speaker 7: a nactual physical ailment.

780
00:36:42,920 --> 00:36:44,440
Speaker 2: That you just can't do what you want to do.

781
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,680
Speaker 2: So uh, you know.

782
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,200
Speaker 5: And he can't speak to a losing streak, never mind

783
00:36:51,239 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 5: the fact they he never fought on a prelim. No,

784
00:36:53,000 --> 00:36:54,680
Speaker 5: I'm just trying to be funny with that last note.

785
00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:58,279
Speaker 5: But Kenny his last fight was against Joseado for the

786
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:00,880
Speaker 5: World championship in October of two thousan eleven. Now his

787
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 5: back intervened, But had Kenny gotten through the next training

788
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 5: camp and maybe fought once more at lightweight and not

789
00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:09,600
Speaker 5: won that fight, and there was no path to then

790
00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 5: a lightweight championship. Again, the guy's gone, you know, and

791
00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 5: I don't know you know what Kenny's net worth was

792
00:37:16,800 --> 00:37:19,880
Speaker 5: at that time compared to Izzy's. Right, But what about

793
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 5: just getting a win, right, having a green I know, right?

794
00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 2: Right?

795
00:37:23,960 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 3: I mean this, listen, let's.

796
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:28,720
Speaker 7: Just let's just address let's address the network thing first.

797
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:32,640
Speaker 7: Jenny's Kenny's far ahead of that that curve, don't worry

798
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:33,200
Speaker 7: about it.

799
00:37:33,600 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 5: What about going out with a win, right, and not

800
00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 5: going out if you're out of Sonia one of the

801
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:40,600
Speaker 5: greatest middleway champions of all time with three or four

802
00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,759
Speaker 5: straight losses, Right, you can understand why he would want

803
00:37:43,800 --> 00:37:48,040
Speaker 5: to maybe solicit a fight or a matchup that gives

804
00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 5: him a great opportunity to go out with a win

805
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:52,080
Speaker 5: if he's not going to be chasing world titles anymore.

806
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:56,640
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's all of that stuff is up to help,

807
00:37:56,760 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 7: you know, because what happened. What happens, John, is they

808
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:01,040
Speaker 7: want I want to go out on win, you know

809
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,080
Speaker 7: what I mean, and then you have to find the

810
00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,600
Speaker 7: right guy for them to beat, you know what I'm saying.

811
00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:09,680
Speaker 7: But in this organization. If you were champion, you're gonna

812
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:12,760
Speaker 7: You're gonna get tough fights. You're not going backwards until

813
00:38:12,800 --> 00:38:13,440
Speaker 7: the very.

814
00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:14,560
Speaker 2: Very end, you know what I mean.

815
00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 7: Like, he's not going he's not sinking down. After this fight,

816
00:38:19,280 --> 00:38:21,279
Speaker 7: he might have to fight, you know that one of

817
00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:22,399
Speaker 7: the other top guys.

818
00:38:22,440 --> 00:38:22,799
Speaker 2: Next time.

819
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 3: They'll give him maybe bo Ko, you know.

820
00:38:28,560 --> 00:38:30,960
Speaker 7: What I'm saying, Another up and coming guy, you know

821
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,319
Speaker 7: what I mean. So it's how they choose fights. I

822
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:36,600
Speaker 7: had a great conversation with Cub Swanson. I think me

823
00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:39,440
Speaker 7: Cubb and Mark Delagrati, and he was asking me, you

824
00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,640
Speaker 7: think I should retire? I go, dude, you look fantastic

825
00:38:42,680 --> 00:38:44,800
Speaker 7: in the in the last fight, you had great timing.

826
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,000
Speaker 7: You know your boxing is good. But it all depends

827
00:38:47,040 --> 00:38:48,719
Speaker 7: on the matchups you get. I think you're at a

828
00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:51,360
Speaker 7: point in your career where they should give you good matchups.

829
00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:54,040
Speaker 7: You could keep fighting forever. There's a million guys you

830
00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 7: can pick off that roster that he could beat. Do

831
00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,880
Speaker 7: you want to go into a five round, grueling, grinding fight.

832
00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:01,359
Speaker 2: At forty one?

833
00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:03,760
Speaker 7: I think, whatever he is, but there's still a million

834
00:39:03,760 --> 00:39:06,319
Speaker 7: fights he could win, And it depends on what they

835
00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:09,640
Speaker 7: want to do. I mean, I think if you're playing

836
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:12,560
Speaker 7: the numbers game in your bottom line oriented, you're not

837
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:15,000
Speaker 7: going to give a guy making big money an easy fight.

838
00:39:15,160 --> 00:39:16,600
Speaker 7: I don't think they're going to do it. I don't

839
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:20,760
Speaker 7: think it makes sense. They'd rather eliminate that expense to

840
00:39:20,800 --> 00:39:23,160
Speaker 7: increase their bottom line. I think it's just a business thing.

841
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:25,360
Speaker 7: I don't even think that, and it's right, it's not wrong,

842
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 7: you know what I mean, Because they build these guys up,

843
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:30,720
Speaker 7: and then if this happens, they kind of get stuck

844
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:35,279
Speaker 7: with a guy that's losing, that's making huge money. And

845
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 7: I think that's the balancing act, is trying to either

846
00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:40,360
Speaker 7: get the guy to retire or get.

847
00:39:40,239 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 2: Him back on a win streak.

848
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,439
Speaker 7: But I don't think they want to pay that type

849
00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 7: of money to give them a guy that's ranked number sixteen.

850
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:50,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, Kenny, I think and Ray, there's a way to

851
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 5: do a super fight.

852
00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:52,319
Speaker 4: Now.

853
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:56,640
Speaker 5: I know Tim Simpson manages both Leon Edwards and Israelata Sonia,

854
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 5: and those fighters have a relationship. But if you are

855
00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:02,080
Speaker 5: trying to to have a fight for Izzy, right, and

856
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 5: maybe those guys didn't have that connective tissue, and Leon

857
00:40:04,680 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 5: maybe were to lose to Jack Dela Madelena, Right, that

858
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 5: would potentially be a fight that could headline, would be

859
00:40:09,360 --> 00:40:12,279
Speaker 5: a massive, massive fight, and even were Easy to maybe

860
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 5: lose that fight, that would be an acceptable note upon

861
00:40:14,640 --> 00:40:16,000
Speaker 5: which to go out for him. You know, I don't

862
00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,600
Speaker 5: know if Izzy has an appetite for the Sean Strickland rematch, right,

863
00:40:18,719 --> 00:40:20,560
Speaker 5: but were he to lose to do plus, maybe that

864
00:40:20,600 --> 00:40:22,759
Speaker 5: would be one that Izzy would ask the UFC to

865
00:40:22,760 --> 00:40:24,759
Speaker 5: try to get back, even though maybe we would not

866
00:40:24,920 --> 00:40:27,319
Speaker 5: love that matchup necessarily based on the first meeting. But

867
00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,359
Speaker 5: about nos Ordini Mavov, you're sort of suggesting to the

868
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:36,600
Speaker 5: masses that if a prime Adasania faced a primey Mavov

869
00:40:36,680 --> 00:40:39,279
Speaker 5: and Nosordine maybe hasn't even arrived at his prime, that

870
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,439
Speaker 5: that Isy would win that fight. So I know that's

871
00:40:42,480 --> 00:40:47,359
Speaker 5: no knock Onimvov necessarily future though, I mean, look what

872
00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:47,959
Speaker 5: he just did.

873
00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, no, one hundred percent. Look that guy looked great.

874
00:40:51,480 --> 00:40:53,840
Speaker 7: He looked great in his last fight. No, he's looking

875
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 7: really good. You can't I did no in a thousand years.

876
00:40:57,320 --> 00:40:59,600
Speaker 7: I'm not trying to take anything away from I said.

877
00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,880
Speaker 7: Sometimes that's the way I look at it. Like my guys,

878
00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:07,160
Speaker 7: like holy cro he would Nasa deems not the guy,

879
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 7: but I'm saying it could be other fights where that

880
00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:12,879
Speaker 7: that would apply better, because Nas the dean, he's been

881
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,480
Speaker 7: on the come up and he's he's looking really good.

882
00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:17,520
Speaker 2: What was this list? F Kennania?

883
00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:19,120
Speaker 3: Was that the fight Brendon Allen?

884
00:41:19,160 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 7: I believe, I mean, he's good, this guy really really

885
00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:23,600
Speaker 7: good what he's been doing.

886
00:41:24,080 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 2: So I don't know, I like it.

887
00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think a lot of it's timing, right. It's

888
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:31,600
Speaker 6: just like you know, I think in mov Off's on

889
00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,000
Speaker 6: on the up and ye you catch out as Sonia

890
00:41:35,000 --> 00:41:37,000
Speaker 6: at the right time, who's a little bit on a decline,

891
00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:40,279
Speaker 6: and you know, uh, and move Off took advantage of him.

892
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:43,359
Speaker 7: Kenny, you can't keep going up, you know what I mean,

893
00:41:43,480 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 7: Gravity's gonna drag you down somewhere.

894
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:47,280
Speaker 2: Look, and that's what that's what I see happening.

895
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean I would maybe be inclined as a

896
00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,960
Speaker 5: promoter to do out of Sonia versus Shara Bullets.

897
00:41:54,360 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 6: Michael Age right, but MVP like.

898
00:41:57,880 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 5: M VPN is he seemed like they're close and Michael

899
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:01,840
Speaker 5: and a Page is talking about one hundred and seventy pounds.

900
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:06,640
Speaker 5: So there are things you can do. Yeah, you lose

901
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:09,560
Speaker 5: to shar a bullet, for example, and you've lost four

902
00:42:09,600 --> 00:42:14,080
Speaker 5: in a row. That is legacy impacting in some way,

903
00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:16,680
Speaker 5: shape or form. Maybe not for me, who still has

904
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,720
Speaker 5: him right, Jellow Anderson Silva's the second greatest middleweight champion

905
00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:21,680
Speaker 5: of all time with respect to Chris Widman everyone else.

906
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:23,560
Speaker 5: But you know what I mean, there becomes a point

907
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 5: of no return. I mean, you know, Rashad Evans I

908
00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,040
Speaker 5: think would love to affect change when it comes to

909
00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:30,040
Speaker 5: his Wikipedia page. And I think that's why maybe he's

910
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:31,600
Speaker 5: fighting Rampage Jacksonson, you know.

911
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:34,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I think that, like that's a great option.

912
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:36,640
Speaker 6: I think that would be a really fun fight. I

913
00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:38,640
Speaker 6: think it's going to be the onus is going to

914
00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:40,399
Speaker 6: be on Izzy and saying, you know, what's the cost

915
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:43,319
Speaker 6: benefit analysis here? You know, this is a guy that

916
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:47,160
Speaker 6: just lost. What do I gain from fighting him? You know,

917
00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 6: outside of the money he does get paid though, there's that,

918
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,240
Speaker 6: and so yeah, gonna be interesting.

919
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:57,800
Speaker 7: Yeah, Look, Kenny is is they get paid, They have sponsorships.

920
00:42:57,800 --> 00:42:59,520
Speaker 7: They don't want to lose, you know what I mean,

921
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,480
Speaker 7: Like you're getting a check for doing nothing every month.

922
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:04,560
Speaker 7: That's a big thing to give up. You know, if

923
00:43:04,600 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 7: I stop fighting, I'm not going to get that. So

924
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 7: there's a million things that go into what's going on.

925
00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,520
Speaker 7: It's not just about the fighting, So that is true.

926
00:43:12,880 --> 00:43:13,879
Speaker 7: You got to figure it out.

927
00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:16,920
Speaker 5: So I thought long and hard as whether or not

928
00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:19,880
Speaker 5: I wanted to address Bryce Mitchell's comments over the weekend

929
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:21,719
Speaker 5: here on the Ana Conformed podcast, and by the way,

930
00:43:21,719 --> 00:43:24,239
Speaker 5: thank you everybody for joining us live here on YouTube.

931
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:28,280
Speaker 5: But just some filthy rhetoric coming out of thug nasty

932
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:30,239
Speaker 5: Bryce Mitchell, a guy that I have come to like

933
00:43:30,280 --> 00:43:32,440
Speaker 5: and respect a lot. So I'm not going to go

934
00:43:32,520 --> 00:43:34,680
Speaker 5: through his comments. You can certainly look them up if

935
00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:38,000
Speaker 5: this is breaking news for you. Dana White responded at

936
00:43:38,120 --> 00:43:41,240
Speaker 5: length on behalf of the UFC and among what he said,

937
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,040
Speaker 5: Hitler is one of the most disgusting and evil human

938
00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:45,759
Speaker 5: beings to ever walk the earth, and anyone that even

939
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:47,839
Speaker 5: tries to take an opposing positions and more on. That's

940
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 5: the problem with the Internet and social media. You provide

941
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:51,960
Speaker 5: a platform to a lot of dumb and ignorant people.

942
00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,880
Speaker 5: Jan Bohovich pushed out a series of tweets. I'm going

943
00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,719
Speaker 5: to read these and get then get some thoughts from

944
00:43:57,760 --> 00:44:00,640
Speaker 5: Kenny and Ray. So this is from four YOUFC light

945
00:44:00,640 --> 00:44:03,359
Speaker 5: heavyweight champion Yoan Bohova. Hey, Bryce Mitchell. Since you are

946
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:04,840
Speaker 5: so good at research, I invite you to take a

947
00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,879
Speaker 5: little educational tour. We'll start in Warsaw, which was nearly

948
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:09,600
Speaker 5: raised to the ground in nineteen forty five. You will

949
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:13,080
Speaker 5: see many memorial plass commemorating the public executions of civilians.

950
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:15,479
Speaker 5: We'll take a walking tour of the ex ghetto area.

951
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:15,879
Speaker 6: By the way.

952
00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 5: We will go to pal Marie, where the Nazis executed

953
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 5: seventeen hundred people, including Olympic champion Yanush Kuzachinsky. I hope

954
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,280
Speaker 5: I'm not butchering his name. Then we'll go to Auschwitz,

955
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,080
Speaker 5: where one million people were murdered. You can reflect on

956
00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:30,160
Speaker 5: each prisoner separately. I will also share a personal story

957
00:44:30,160 --> 00:44:33,760
Speaker 5: because Waclaw, my grandfather's brother was in this camp, Jan Bednark,

958
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,319
Speaker 5: in turn as my grandmother's brother, who died in the

959
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,440
Speaker 5: Bushenwald camp. My grandfather was held in a German prisoner

960
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:41,480
Speaker 5: of war camp. I invite you to Poland to see

961
00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,000
Speaker 5: all of this with your own eyes. We'll see if

962
00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:47,239
Speaker 5: you still consider you know who to be a good guy.

963
00:44:47,800 --> 00:44:53,280
Speaker 5: So my son about a year ago asked me if

964
00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:56,719
Speaker 5: he asked me who the worst person in the world was,

965
00:44:57,080 --> 00:44:58,960
Speaker 5: and if he could see a picture of that person,

966
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:02,799
Speaker 5: And I showed him a picture of Adolf Hitler. So, ray,

967
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 5: I guess I'll start with you. Uh, I'd imagine this

968
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:08,280
Speaker 5: crossed your brow over the weekend. What were your thoughts

969
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:08,799
Speaker 5: on all of this?

970
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:15,080
Speaker 7: H I mean, the guys out of his fucking mind.

971
00:45:15,400 --> 00:45:18,440
Speaker 7: He wants to go bass fishing with Ado Hitler. I mean,

972
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,960
Speaker 7: I don't know, I mean, can we can we find

973
00:45:20,960 --> 00:45:23,880
Speaker 7: a way? Maybe the humor? Look what I'm hope like

974
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,240
Speaker 7: that it's just just crazy talk. And you want freedom

975
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,040
Speaker 7: of speech. There's your example of it right there. He's

976
00:45:31,200 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 7: gonna say what he's gonna say, but he's he's fucking

977
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,600
Speaker 7: balls to the wall, just mentally ill. At this point,

978
00:45:37,880 --> 00:45:40,400
Speaker 7: I just hope it ain't like CTE, you know what

979
00:45:40,400 --> 00:45:43,120
Speaker 7: I mean, Like, I hope that's not playing into it

980
00:45:43,200 --> 00:45:46,560
Speaker 7: with all of these guys, because you do see changes

981
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:48,879
Speaker 7: in the way they the way they think.

982
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:50,319
Speaker 2: I mean, he was a kid at the gym.

983
00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:53,080
Speaker 7: It probably was eight years ago, I don't know how

984
00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,120
Speaker 7: long ago it was, and he seemed like a really

985
00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:58,400
Speaker 7: nice guy, and he is a I think he you know,

986
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:00,960
Speaker 7: I think he's just confers used and maybe he has

987
00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,520
Speaker 7: to be like educated on what's going on. But at

988
00:46:03,520 --> 00:46:07,000
Speaker 7: this stage of the game in twenty twenty four, I mean,

989
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,279
Speaker 7: the stuff he's saying is just.

990
00:46:10,840 --> 00:46:13,040
Speaker 2: Fucking nuts. I mean, I don't know, what are you

991
00:46:13,080 --> 00:46:13,440
Speaker 2: going to do?

992
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,879
Speaker 7: I mean, that's you think he's the only guy out

993
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:19,160
Speaker 7: there talking like that, you know what I mean. So

994
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:21,440
Speaker 7: it's not a good look for the MMA community. You

995
00:46:21,480 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 7: could see how disgusted Dana White was and I don't know,

996
00:46:27,280 --> 00:46:28,440
Speaker 7: I don't know what you want me to say, is

997
00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:29,680
Speaker 7: the guys are.

998
00:46:29,600 --> 00:46:33,440
Speaker 5: Moron Kenny, Sorry, go ahead, I was just going to

999
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:36,279
Speaker 5: say words matter. Sports leagues obviously are going to handle

1000
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:39,240
Speaker 5: things differently. I believe that the NBA or the NFL

1001
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:42,160
Speaker 5: would have suspended this athlete or find this athlete.

1002
00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 3: I understand that.

1003
00:46:44,520 --> 00:46:47,400
Speaker 5: Freedom of speech is something that is prioritized by the UFC,

1004
00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,680
Speaker 5: And even if he were to be consulted by Ari Emmanuel,

1005
00:46:50,680 --> 00:46:52,279
Speaker 5: who's in charge of this whole thing, who is a

1006
00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:55,400
Speaker 5: Jewish man like I am, right, who you know, maybe

1007
00:46:55,480 --> 00:46:57,080
Speaker 5: could have said, hey man, you got to cut this

1008
00:46:57,120 --> 00:46:59,200
Speaker 5: guy like Dana White is not cutting Bryce Mitchell, but

1009
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:00,839
Speaker 5: a lots on hack here Ken Flow.

1010
00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:02,120
Speaker 8: Yeah.

1011
00:47:02,120 --> 00:47:04,640
Speaker 6: You know, we always joke around on the mat that

1012
00:47:04,960 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 6: the most dangerous land animal is a blue belt because

1013
00:47:07,719 --> 00:47:11,319
Speaker 6: they have just enough information to screw themselves, you know,

1014
00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:14,080
Speaker 6: And I think that's a good and that's kind of

1015
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 6: the problem is is you know, the Internet, it's an

1016
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:19,680
Speaker 6: interesting place in that you know, yes, there there's a

1017
00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,799
Speaker 6: lot of dumb people, but you know, you can get

1018
00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,880
Speaker 6: a lot of information from a lot of different sources.

1019
00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:27,439
Speaker 6: And in getting a little bit of information, you think

1020
00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:30,680
Speaker 6: you have the keys of the kingdom somehow or I

1021
00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:33,560
Speaker 6: heard this and I know this, and I you know.

1022
00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:37,440
Speaker 6: So it's, uh, it's a dangerous place to be, you know,

1023
00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:40,800
Speaker 6: when you think you're getting this special information or whatever

1024
00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:45,840
Speaker 6: it is, and you come to think a certain thing, it's, uh,

1025
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:49,320
Speaker 6: it's unfortunate. And and it seemed like Bryce was saying

1026
00:47:49,360 --> 00:47:52,840
Speaker 6: the right things, you know, after what he said. You know,

1027
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:57,160
Speaker 6: who knows if you know he was intoxicated or or

1028
00:47:57,280 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 6: what was going on, or if there's some some issue

1029
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:00,600
Speaker 6: going on.

1030
00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:01,920
Speaker 2: Any another good point.

1031
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:03,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, who knows.

1032
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 6: But you know, it's unfortunate because again, you know, as athletes,

1033
00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,920
Speaker 6: the reality is that there are people that look up

1034
00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:13,319
Speaker 6: to you and and are looking to you know, hear

1035
00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,000
Speaker 6: what you have to say, and you have an influence

1036
00:48:16,040 --> 00:48:19,520
Speaker 6: for better or worse, and and you know, hopefully Bryce

1037
00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:20,560
Speaker 6: can can write the ship.

1038
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,040
Speaker 3: He seems to me.

1039
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,360
Speaker 5: He seems sober to me, I've spent a lot of

1040
00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 5: time around him.

1041
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:28,120
Speaker 3: He seems sober as a judge.

1042
00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,400
Speaker 2: But go ahead, right right, yeah, yeah, I think we're reaching.

1043
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:32,839
Speaker 2: But I do agree with Kenny.

1044
00:48:33,000 --> 00:48:35,680
Speaker 7: Look, I've seen it, John, where I've told guys don't

1045
00:48:35,719 --> 00:48:39,160
Speaker 7: do this, don't do that. They agree with me, and

1046
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:41,360
Speaker 7: they go home, they start smoking. What do they do

1047
00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 7: to the exact thing I told not to do? Right,

1048
00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:48,160
Speaker 7: And it's definitely one hundred percent weed related. I've had

1049
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:49,919
Speaker 7: a couple of examples of that, and these are guys

1050
00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:51,520
Speaker 7: that smoke a lot of a lot of weed.

1051
00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 2: But so like again, yeah, he had to have the predilection, right.

1052
00:48:57,520 --> 00:48:59,440
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, in no way is that right?

1053
00:48:59,800 --> 00:48:59,920
Speaker 7: Right?

1054
00:49:00,040 --> 00:49:00,319
Speaker 4: No way?

1055
00:49:00,400 --> 00:49:03,640
Speaker 7: Is that valgy I think and the pregli that he

1056
00:49:03,680 --> 00:49:06,200
Speaker 7: always had, sure, that's the scary part to me. No

1057
00:49:06,239 --> 00:49:10,120
Speaker 7: matter what, you know, he went in the direction that

1058
00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:13,080
Speaker 7: he felt comfortable with, even if it was like a

1059
00:49:13,080 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 7: mistake in his head. So he's the guy's in a

1060
00:49:15,760 --> 00:49:19,480
Speaker 7: lot of trouble either way. I mean he's yeah, I

1061
00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:21,279
Speaker 7: don't think we didn't see the end of this and

1062
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,759
Speaker 7: we don't know what's going to happen. But uh, he

1063
00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:25,960
Speaker 7: puts everybody. This is what what sucks. He puts a

1064
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:28,399
Speaker 7: lot of people in a real shitty position. Well, right,

1065
00:49:29,239 --> 00:49:30,919
Speaker 7: like a stupid ass, you know what I mean?

1066
00:49:31,239 --> 00:49:34,160
Speaker 5: Yeah, right, I have taught a lot about how sort

1067
00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,040
Speaker 5: of to handle the navigation that would be our next

1068
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 5: fighter meeting. Kyrie Irving was suspended for eight games in

1069
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,400
Speaker 5: twenty twenty two by the NBA for some remarks that

1070
00:49:42,440 --> 00:49:44,800
Speaker 5: were deemed to be anti Semitic I believe on Twitter

1071
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:47,480
Speaker 5: or x But all right, I just wanted to address

1072
00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 5: that briefly. So when you see a headline, Ray, maybe

1073
00:49:49,960 --> 00:49:52,160
Speaker 5: you don't even see this, but I see this headline

1074
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:54,239
Speaker 5: that Morob Dwallash, Willi and Pieldri Jann are going to

1075
00:49:54,280 --> 00:49:57,280
Speaker 5: coach opposite each other in a Russian reality fight series.

1076
00:49:57,520 --> 00:49:59,520
Speaker 5: And then I see another headline that Aljamain Sterling is

1077
00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:01,680
Speaker 5: going to replace the UFC's on disputed band win champion

1078
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,839
Speaker 5: Rob as the coach against Pyodrian. I know these guys

1079
00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:07,399
Speaker 5: aren't under your brown New York. I know they're in Vegas, right,

1080
00:50:07,440 --> 00:50:10,120
Speaker 5: but you know what exactly is going on here?

1081
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,120
Speaker 7: I got to tell you I was going to make

1082
00:50:12,120 --> 00:50:14,680
Speaker 7: a call last night, I sort of thing with Al

1083
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:18,040
Speaker 7: Joe and pidon with the Academy award or whatever.

1084
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,239
Speaker 2: But yeah, Rob was. Morob was in the gym the

1085
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:21,800
Speaker 2: whole week.

00:50:22,360 --> 00:50:24,360
Speaker 7: Yeah, and he didn't he didn't say anything I didn't

1087
00:50:24,360 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 7: know about, so I didn't even ask him about it.

1088
00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:28,359
Speaker 7: I was actually going to call Al Joe and see

1089
00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:31,480
Speaker 7: what the hell was going on because that was news

1090
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:31,759

00:50:32,200 --> 00:50:34,920
Speaker 5: But no, Al Jo's in Russia making ten k an

00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:37,160
Speaker 5: hour doing this Russian reality is.

1093
00:50:37,239 --> 00:50:40,160
Speaker 2: He is in Russia though I don't know.

1094
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:42,200
Speaker 3: He actually, if you want to know, is on vacation

1095
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:42,800
Speaker 3: in Miami.

1096
00:50:44,000 --> 00:50:47,600
Speaker 2: He's back. He's done with that. Yeah, that part I know.

1097
00:50:48,440 --> 00:50:50,600
Speaker 7: But yeah, so it was no, but you know, you

1098
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,399
Speaker 7: want to get back to Morob. I mean, the guy

1099
00:50:53,560 --> 00:50:56,240
Speaker 7: just fought last week. The guy must have did fifty

1100
00:50:56,360 --> 00:51:01,160
Speaker 7: fucking rounds in the JACKNNY just and people they're laying

1101
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:01,880
Speaker 7: on the floor.

1102
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:03,800
Speaker 2: He's walking around.

1103
00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:07,920
Speaker 7: Like he's like a like a tiger on valum, like

1104
00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:08,800
Speaker 7: he's just bored.

1105
00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,239
Speaker 2: So I'm telling you what I've seen this way. I

1106
00:51:11,280 --> 00:51:12,640
Speaker 2: think he's actually crazy.

1107
00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,920
Speaker 7: I think the guy might be nuts at this point,

1108
00:51:16,000 --> 00:51:19,200
Speaker 7: Like people want to explain that Cardio this to cut dude.

1109
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:21,800
Speaker 2: The guy doesn't stop so muchation.

1110
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:26,279
Speaker 7: Huh nah, I'm saying in the gym every day, and

1111
00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,240
Speaker 7: I think I held pants for him once everything else

1112
00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:30,920
Speaker 7: was sparring.

1113
00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 5: Just what does the UFCP I say about what he

1114
00:51:36,840 --> 00:51:39,719
Speaker 5: puts on tape when they have him hooked up to

1115
00:51:39,840 --> 00:51:43,279
Speaker 5: all those metrics, right, Kenny, when they're you have him

1116
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 5: on air, Dimond.

1117
00:51:44,880 --> 00:51:47,120
Speaker 2: I don't think he goes into the PI. To be

1118
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:47,839
Speaker 2: honest with you.

1119
00:51:47,880 --> 00:51:50,279
Speaker 7: I had a guy, Uh, there was a kid sitting there.

1120
00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,040
Speaker 7: He had K tape on his knee. You know what

1121
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:54,600
Speaker 7: they call it?

1122
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:56,839
Speaker 2: K tape. You don't want to talk about ny I, Rob,

1123
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,479
Speaker 2: You ever have that on your buddy? You ever?

1124
00:51:58,640 --> 00:52:01,120
Speaker 7: You ever see Marobo on his shoulder with the K

1125
00:52:01,360 --> 00:52:03,040
Speaker 7: tank fucking walking around?

1126
00:52:03,719 --> 00:52:03,799
Speaker 3: No?

1127
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:09,239
Speaker 2: Not, still got the scars on his shit? How's your

1128
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:12,839
Speaker 2: should looking? Still looks like shit? To me? Oh? Perfects

1129
00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:13,960
Speaker 2: absolutely perfect.

1130
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,680
Speaker 5: He has everyone in the fight game wondering what he

1131
00:52:17,800 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 5: is made of and how he can be so uniquely

1132
00:52:21,719 --> 00:52:26,640
Speaker 5: him in combat it's just insane. Right, everybody's kind of

1133
00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 5: psychoanalyze everything that he does because we've seen nothing like it. Like,

1134
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:35,520
Speaker 5: I'm wondering aloud when I think about these other worldly

1135
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:38,439
Speaker 5: gas tanks, and I think back to Colby Covington saying, Yeah,

1136
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:40,560
Speaker 5: I knew when I was eight years old on a

1137
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:42,360
Speaker 5: soccer pitch that I had a third lung and I

1138
00:52:42,360 --> 00:52:45,200
Speaker 5: could outlast all these kids, right, And you know I

1139
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:46,839
Speaker 5: can look and see that my niece has a better

1140
00:52:46,840 --> 00:52:49,560
Speaker 5: gas tank than my daughter. Right, But like, what is

1141
00:52:49,600 --> 00:52:51,759
Speaker 5: he made of? What is science going to say when

1142
00:52:51,760 --> 00:52:53,160
Speaker 5: they finally cut Morob open.

1143
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:55,560
Speaker 7: I don't know, but he can he gets strolled as

1144
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:58,479
Speaker 7: the rounds go on. That's what that's one million percent Andy.

1145
00:52:59,080 --> 00:53:02,080
Speaker 7: He's really beg I mean, I mean he always was,

1146
00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:05,640
Speaker 7: but he's really becoming a thinking fighter. He knows exactly

1147
00:53:05,680 --> 00:53:06,359
Speaker 7: what's going on.

1148
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:08,080
Speaker 2: Uh Man.

1149
00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,240
Speaker 7: I put him in with a really good striker heavier

1150
00:53:10,239 --> 00:53:13,279
Speaker 7: than him, and by the fifth round that guy was

1151
00:53:13,320 --> 00:53:14,839
Speaker 7: laying on the flo. I mean, it's just, you know,

1152
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:16,440
Speaker 7: it's just and I and I didn't want to even

1153
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:18,640
Speaker 7: I didn't want to see the sparring because it could

1154
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:22,560
Speaker 7: have been a total disaster. Luckily everything worked out. But yeah,

1155
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:25,439
Speaker 7: I just watched guy after guy. The only guy is

1156
00:53:25,440 --> 00:53:29,000
Speaker 7: is Pumi nakudah boom. He's the only guy that keeps

1157
00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:30,960
Speaker 7: up with him. That's that's a fact.

1158
00:53:31,840 --> 00:53:35,680
Speaker 5: You listen, Yeah, Iah is the only guy that keeps

1159
00:53:35,719 --> 00:53:37,000
Speaker 5: up with Morob Dwallis Willy.

1160
00:53:37,320 --> 00:53:39,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, these guys you at the bad they don't care.

1161
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,960
Speaker 7: They care about the next drink that's coming in. That's

1162
00:53:42,000 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 7: about it.

1163
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 5: Well, let's hope twenty twenty five is the year that

1164
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:47,920
Speaker 5: Pumi Nakuda becomes a UFC fighter and gets that badge

1165
00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:49,200
Speaker 5: that time, see what happened.

1166
00:53:49,600 --> 00:53:51,720
Speaker 7: But yeah, he's the only he's the only guy that

1167
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,640
Speaker 7: is not laying on I mean I'm talking laying on

1168
00:53:53,680 --> 00:53:54,040
Speaker 7: the floor.

1169
00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:55,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's the only guy.

1170
00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:56,920
Speaker 5: All right, let me get you out of here on this.

1171
00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:00,680
Speaker 5: Have Hatchy Mix or Tatiana Suarez has crossed your wake

1172
00:54:00,719 --> 00:54:02,360
Speaker 5: at all? Have you met either of those people? I

1173
00:54:02,400 --> 00:54:04,799
Speaker 5: know Pati Mix is a primary training partner from Rob

1174
00:54:04,840 --> 00:54:05,440
Speaker 5: Dwallas Willie.

1175
00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:06,719
Speaker 3: Do you know them at all? Or No?

1176
00:54:07,040 --> 00:54:10,239
Speaker 2: I met him? I don't. I wouldn't consider right, Noah, No.

1177
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:15,000
Speaker 5: Tatiana Suarez competes for the World Championship this weekend. Finally

1178
00:54:15,239 --> 00:54:17,879
Speaker 5: would be one word that I think would be appropriate. Right,

1179
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 5: she's eleven and zero. She has dealt with a lot

1180
00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:22,600
Speaker 5: in her life. She was chasing Olympic goal, was diagnosed

1181
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:26,320
Speaker 5: with thyroid cancer, right, and here she is fighting for

1182
00:54:26,360 --> 00:54:30,200
Speaker 5: the world championship, favored at Draftking sports Book right now

1183
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:34,239
Speaker 5: to beat the vaunted Jong Waylee. I would like to

1184
00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:36,560
Speaker 5: get a prediction from you, Ray Longo, who leaves Sydney,

1185
00:54:36,600 --> 00:54:40,880
Speaker 5: Australia as the UFC Women's strahaweight champion and still or

1186
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:41,319
Speaker 5: and new.

1187
00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,200
Speaker 2: I'm going to go with the Tatiana Suarez.

1188
00:54:45,239 --> 00:54:50,080
Speaker 7: I think even her you know, relationship with the PATCHI

1189
00:54:50,200 --> 00:54:53,000
Speaker 7: mix has to be a big help to submission, you

1190
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,440
Speaker 7: know what I'm saying. So I think besides that, her

1191
00:54:55,480 --> 00:55:00,440
Speaker 7: wrestling is awesome, she's undefeated, She's faced a lot of

1192
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:03,480
Speaker 7: good people. I think she's ready to go, and I

1193
00:55:03,560 --> 00:55:06,640
Speaker 7: think she's uh, she's gonna make up for whatever the

1194
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 7: Olympic thing was with the thyroid cancer. She's gonna she's

1195
00:55:09,480 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 7: gonna do it. I'm going with with uh, Tatiana. I

1196
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,480
Speaker 7: think she's tough to I think she's gonna be a

1197
00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:16,360
Speaker 7: real handful.

1198
00:55:16,760 --> 00:55:18,840
Speaker 5: Seems like the money's coming in on Tatiana Suarez, and

1199
00:55:18,880 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 5: I think a lot of people in the fight game,

1200
00:55:21,239 --> 00:55:23,600
Speaker 5: like Ray, are going to fall on that side. I

1201
00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:25,680
Speaker 5: always think it's going to be interesting when it comes

1202
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:27,960
Speaker 5: to the strength equation once they hit the mat, who

1203
00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:29,799
Speaker 5: will actually be stronger. You really don't know how an

1204
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:31,839
Speaker 5: athlete feels until you're in there with them. We'll get

1205
00:55:31,880 --> 00:55:33,839
Speaker 5: all of Kenflow's thoughts on that a little bit later.

1206
00:55:34,120 --> 00:55:36,239
Speaker 5: Ray Longo before we go drinkas DUPLESSI about a two

1207
00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:38,400
Speaker 5: to one favorite over Sean Strickland for the rematch.

1208
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:38,880
Speaker 3: Who do you like?

1209
00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:42,719
Speaker 7: Wow, I'm gonna say, I think it's gonna be the

1210
00:55:42,800 --> 00:55:45,160
Speaker 7: exact same fight it was the first time. I don't

1211
00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:47,040
Speaker 7: know who the decision's gonna go to. I think the

1212
00:55:47,120 --> 00:55:51,240
Speaker 7: decision could easily went to Strickland. But yeah, let's see, Uh,

1213
00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,839
Speaker 7: it's gonna be a it's gonna be I think it's

1214
00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,799
Speaker 7: definitely gonna be a decision, and it's going to be

1215
00:55:55,800 --> 00:55:58,280
Speaker 7: a very close fight as was the first one.

1216
00:55:58,600 --> 00:56:00,920
Speaker 5: Okay, we won't make you make a pick on that one.

1217
00:56:00,960 --> 00:56:02,200
Speaker 5: We hope you have a great day and a better

1218
00:56:02,239 --> 00:56:04,759

Speaker 7: Yeah, safe trip. And let me give a shout out

1222
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,920
Speaker 7: to all my guys at the gym. They fought their

1223
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:15,040
Speaker 7: rasses off on Saurday night. Everybody won. We had one

1224
00:56:15,480 --> 00:56:17,799
Speaker 7: one guy that lost a split decision which I would

1225
00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,560
Speaker 7: have given him the fight. So just a great group

1226
00:56:21,640 --> 00:56:25,800
Speaker 7: of young amateurs coming up. It was everybody just knocked

1227
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:27,759
Speaker 7: it out of the park. What a great night we

1228
00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:32,040
Speaker 7: had at the we had at the space. And unfortunately

1229
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:37,040
Speaker 7: and Sarah, Matt's wife lost a split decision which everybody

1230
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 7: thought she won. For a championship at forty one, you know,

1231
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:41,640
Speaker 7: is a goal to that.

1232
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 2: Just that was just a field good night.

1233
00:56:44,000 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 7: You know, a couple of couple of losses, but for

1234
00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:48,600
Speaker 7: the most part, everybody knocked it out of the park,

1235
00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:50,000
Speaker 7: fought with heart and passion.

1236
00:56:50,040 --> 00:56:53,879
Speaker 2: That's all you want and that's it. Great night.

1237
00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:58,200

00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:12,520

00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:38,520
Speaker 5: by Big Gun Brian Petrie and my brother. There is

1294
00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:40,560
Speaker 5: so much love for you in the MMA community and

1295
00:59:40,560 --> 00:59:43,440
Speaker 5: on these airwaves. I'm not trying to get you all emotional,

1296
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:47,800
Speaker 5: but we are live on YouTube and we did dedicate

1297
00:59:48,040 --> 00:59:51,120
Speaker 5: last week's show to the memory of your amazing mother,

1298
00:59:51,200 --> 00:59:53,960
Speaker 5: bar Petrie. I know this is challenging for you to

1299
00:59:54,000 --> 00:59:56,520
Speaker 5: be back today. I know you were sort of weighing

1300
00:59:56,560 --> 00:59:58,480
Speaker 5: this decision and being with us for a pay per

1301
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,840
Speaker 5: view week, but you know, I hope you felt the

1302
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:03,000
Speaker 5: love from this podcast family, of which you are a

1303
01:00:03,080 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 5: major part.

1304
01:00:04,200 --> 01:00:08,760
Speaker 3: I mean, I couldn't believe the outpour respect obviously everyone

1305
01:00:08,800 --> 01:00:11,680
Speaker 3: in this show sending me messages, and then to the

1306
01:00:11,800 --> 01:00:15,200
Speaker 3: comments and from the dedication to my mother, I read

1307
01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 3: all of them. I mean, it really truly uplifts you.

1308
01:00:17,920 --> 01:00:20,920
Speaker 3: My family was always small, it's now getting smaller. So

1309
01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 3: seeing these strangers essentially comment really good, you know words

1310
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:28,480
Speaker 3: and positive affirmations to me was just incredible. I mean

1311
01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:31,200
Speaker 3: I literally took it all in, and I have a

1312
01:00:31,200 --> 01:00:33,960
Speaker 3: weird perspective. I you know, my father is dealing with

1313
01:00:34,000 --> 01:00:36,720
Speaker 3: this a little harder obviously, you know, and my mother

1314
01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,320
Speaker 3: was the strongest woman I've ever known, and gave me

1315
01:00:39,360 --> 01:00:41,000
Speaker 3: the life I've gave you. I could sit here and

1316
01:00:41,040 --> 01:00:43,920
Speaker 3: tell you stories for two hours of the reason what

1317
01:00:44,040 --> 01:00:46,000
Speaker 3: she had a sacrifice to get me to where you

1318
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:49,640
Speaker 3: know I need to be. And but I have so

1319
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 3: many good memories of my mom. All of them are good.

1320
01:00:53,320 --> 01:00:55,080
Speaker 3: We never fought, we never had a falling out, we

1321
01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,400
Speaker 3: never yet at each other. We were best friends. And

1322
01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:00,760
Speaker 3: I get to hold those on forever, so as much

1323
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:03,320
Speaker 3: as she's gone, and it sucks, she was fighting for

1324
01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:06,800
Speaker 3: a long time, truly and really hasn't been herself for

1325
01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,240
Speaker 3: a few years. So now she gets to rest peacefully

1326
01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:10,880
Speaker 3: and I get to have all these memories that no

1327
01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,640
Speaker 3: one can take away from me, and not everybody can

1328
01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,000
Speaker 3: say that about the mother, unfortunately. So I feel very

1329
01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:19,240
Speaker 3: truly honored and privileged. I choose my mother, And again

1330
01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,720
Speaker 3: I feel privileged and honored that I'm part of this

1331
01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:26,000
Speaker 3: podcast and got all the flowing of love, which was

1332
01:01:26,400 --> 01:01:28,960
Speaker 3: very reciprocated on my end, and I really, really truly

1333
01:01:29,240 --> 01:01:31,680
Speaker 3: bottom my heart. My family as well appreciate everything. So

1334
01:01:31,720 --> 01:01:32,320
Speaker 3: thank you guys.

1335
01:01:32,520 --> 01:01:34,480
Speaker 5: My man of course, well it's good to have you

1336
01:01:34,520 --> 01:01:37,720
Speaker 5: back and your wife. Erica's tribute was lovely as well

1337
01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:40,760
Speaker 5: to her late mother in law. All Right, we're going

1338
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:43,040
Speaker 5: to liven things up, or I guess lighten hims up

1339
01:01:43,080 --> 01:01:45,840
Speaker 5: a little bit with a pronunciation of the week. And

1340
01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,480
Speaker 5: I am getting an opportunity to pronounce this man's name

1341
01:01:48,520 --> 01:01:52,240
Speaker 5: for the first time this weekend. What a challenge it is.

1342
01:01:52,240 --> 01:01:55,920
Speaker 5: It's nine syllables. He is a flyway competing in the

1343
01:01:55,960 --> 01:01:59,120
Speaker 5: first fight the night taking on shouldn't song Park. We're

1344
01:01:59,120 --> 01:02:01,560
Speaker 5: gonna let Brian Tree take a stab at this. I

1345
01:02:01,600 --> 01:02:04,680
Speaker 5: did send you the file, yes, and at this point

1346
01:02:04,720 --> 01:02:06,400
Speaker 5: I've said the name about one hundred times, so I

1347
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:09,080
Speaker 5: feel pretty confident. But what do you have for us

1348
01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 5: on this young flyweight hopeful?

1349
01:02:13,040 --> 01:02:15,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, so we've kind of done this one before. I'm

1350
01:02:15,000 --> 01:02:17,160
Speaker 3: not sure if it was a fish or not, but yes,

1351
01:02:17,920 --> 01:02:23,000
Speaker 3: yam Jargall. Ten den Brell is like basically what I got.

1352
01:02:23,320 --> 01:02:28,120
Speaker 3: Not bad, not bad. Yeah. My twin brother Jason Anak

1353
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:29,080
Speaker 3: doesn't like this segment.

1354
01:02:29,160 --> 01:02:31,440
Speaker 5: I brought it back this week for n Mjargall to

1355
01:02:31,560 --> 01:02:35,000
Speaker 5: men den Burrell, okay, because he might be the champion

1356
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:37,840
Speaker 5: one day and that's why I'm forced to say two

1357
01:02:37,880 --> 01:02:39,760
Speaker 5: men Den Burrell a million times before. I get to

1358
01:02:39,800 --> 01:02:41,960
Speaker 5: the arena, because if this guy produces a knockout, I

1359
01:02:41,960 --> 01:02:44,480
Speaker 5: got to be able to say two.

1360
01:02:44,280 --> 01:02:45,040
Speaker 3: Men Den Barrell.

1361
01:02:45,160 --> 01:02:47,560
Speaker 5: And maybe they repurposed that audio because the guy becomes

1362
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:51,400
Speaker 5: a UFC champion. So that's why, perhaps too seriously at times,

1363
01:02:51,400 --> 01:02:53,919
Speaker 5: we take this stuff very seriously. So let us hear

1364
01:02:54,000 --> 01:02:56,760
Speaker 5: from the Mjargall to men Den Burrell. If we could

1365
01:02:56,800 --> 01:03:03,680
Speaker 5: Cody Merrill.

1366
01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:05,520
Speaker 6: To men den Brell, Niam Giordal to men den.

1367
01:03:05,360 --> 01:03:12,160
Speaker 5: Brell, Jerl's crazy, I's nuts. So my phonetics suggests you're

1368
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:15,320
Speaker 5: emphasizing the last syllable N m jar Gall and then

1369
01:03:15,480 --> 01:03:19,200
Speaker 5: to men Den Burrell. So my man, Bruce Buffer will

1370
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:22,040
Speaker 5: call me on Friday or Saturday and he'll say, how

1371
01:03:22,080 --> 01:03:24,560
Speaker 5: do we pronounce me mjar Gall to men Denbrell. And

1372
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:27,920
Speaker 5: I'll be like, my man, we got a practice one

1373
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:30,440
Speaker 5: hundred times, so we don't need phonetics on Saturday.

1374
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:34,040
Speaker 3: So it'll do something else, all right.

1375
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:36,480
Speaker 5: We have another file, by the way later coming up

1376
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,520

Speaker 3: just want to pick him based on that and the

1391
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 3: fact that he's a high you know, plus three twenty

1392
01:04:22,920 --> 01:04:25,640
Speaker 3: underdog against a Toporia who.

1393
01:04:25,440 --> 01:04:26,320
Speaker 6: This guy's have foughts.

1394
01:04:26,320 --> 01:04:29,720
Speaker 5: It's like twenty twenty three and he's fought bums. Nobody's guys.

1395
01:04:29,760 --> 01:04:32,320
Speaker 3: I mean, one guy with a winning record who he

1396
01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:34,960
Speaker 3: fought last time out, grabbing pounding him. That guy's currently

1397
01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 3: three and two, right, But other than that, he really

1398
01:04:37,080 --> 01:04:40,960
Speaker 3: hasn't fought anybody. But he moves and he looks and

1399
01:04:41,000 --> 01:04:43,480
Speaker 3: he fights similar to his brother, who we know is

1400
01:04:43,520 --> 01:04:46,320
Speaker 3: a fucking stud. He's also in the gym every single

1401
01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 3: day with this guy, presumably with that great camp in Spain,

1402
01:04:50,120 --> 01:04:52,040
Speaker 3: and I just think he might be a little too

1403
01:04:52,120 --> 01:04:54,600
Speaker 3: much man for Colby. I think Colby's a little light

1404
01:04:54,640 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 3: in the ass. I think I've seen his fights. I

1405
01:04:56,320 --> 01:04:59,840
Speaker 3: don't think he's very strong. I think his jiu jitsu's okay.

1406
01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:01,960
Speaker 3: I think his striking at times can be a little

1407
01:05:01,960 --> 01:05:04,160
Speaker 3: worrisome for me. He does have some good kicks, but

1408
01:05:04,160 --> 01:05:06,360
Speaker 3: they're a little lazy to Poria. If he's got some

1409
01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:09,720
Speaker 3: of those boxing and his brothers gonna make this, I'm

1410
01:05:09,720 --> 01:05:11,560
Speaker 3: pretty quick night for himself. However, I do think he'll

1411
01:05:11,600 --> 01:05:13,560
Speaker 3: go for some takedowns, do some ground and pound. He's

1412
01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:16,120
Speaker 3: the bigger, thicker guy here. I hate the number on

1413
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,720
Speaker 3: minus four ten against a guy who's never really fought anybody.

1414
01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:22,760
Speaker 3: Someone's gonna be a Peyton in this family, someone's gonna

1415
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:25,160
Speaker 3: be an Eli. There's no way we have two Peytons, right,

1416
01:05:25,560 --> 01:05:28,320
Speaker 3: but we might have two Peyton Mannings. So I'm gonna

1417
01:05:28,360 --> 01:05:30,320
Speaker 3: go to Poria minus four ten. I hate the number.

1418
01:05:30,360 --> 01:05:32,280
Speaker 3: I'm not going to play you this, but that's gonna

1419
01:05:32,280 --> 01:05:33,080
Speaker 3: be my official pick.

1420
01:05:34,000 --> 01:05:36,360
Speaker 5: All right, nicely laid out as usual from the Chief

1421
01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:38,920
Speaker 5: cap Or Brian Patrie till Potia Kenflo's won three in

1422
01:05:38,960 --> 01:05:42,560
Speaker 5: a row, BJJ black belt, ton of grappling experience. I mean,

1423
01:05:42,640 --> 01:05:45,800
Speaker 5: say what you will about his relative lack of MMA experience,

1424
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:48,920
Speaker 5: but a lot of grappling and combat sports experience on

1425
01:05:49,000 --> 01:05:52,600
Speaker 5: the other side. Thickness longtime training partner as mentioned of

1426
01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:55,640
Speaker 5: Alexander Volkanowski's undefeated seven to zero, also BJJ black belt,

1427
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:59,080
Speaker 5: National BJJ champion, training under Joe Lopez at Freestyle MMA

1428
01:05:59,200 --> 01:06:02,440
Speaker 5: for twelve years he was thirteen and really has been

1429
01:06:02,480 --> 01:06:05,320
Speaker 5: a right hand man of Alexander Volkanovski since he was eighteen.

1430
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:08,640
Speaker 5: Here he steps in replacing Cody Hadding your thoughts.

1431
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:10,920
Speaker 3: Listen, this might be controversial.

1432
01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:13,680
Speaker 6: I don't think Thickness deserves this shot. Toporia has gone

1433
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:17,360
Speaker 6: through Volkanovsky and Holloway back to back. This is wait,

1434
01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:21,520
Speaker 6: it's not it's not Ilia, It's okay, I forget it. Listen.

1435
01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:23,160
Speaker 6: I think it's going to be interesting, man. You know,

1436
01:06:23,320 --> 01:06:25,720
Speaker 6: I think I think there's some truth to what Brian's

1437
01:06:25,760 --> 01:06:28,720
Speaker 6: talking about. You know, I think Toporia, though, is still

1438
01:06:28,760 --> 01:06:32,760
Speaker 6: getting a good match up here against Kolbe Thickness. I

1439
01:06:32,760 --> 01:06:35,280
Speaker 6: think this could be a good fight for Taporia to

1440
01:06:35,320 --> 01:06:37,240
Speaker 6: come out here in his UFC debut. I know it

1441
01:06:37,320 --> 01:06:39,240
Speaker 6: was kind of delayed a little bit, and also you know,

1442
01:06:39,280 --> 01:06:42,040
Speaker 6: they had to find someone else to kind of jump

1443
01:06:42,080 --> 01:06:45,280
Speaker 6: in there. And I just think Tolporia is most likely

1444
01:06:45,320 --> 01:06:49,640
Speaker 6: going to be better everywhere. And similar to how Eliot Toporia,

1445
01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 6: his younger brother, came up, he got the right fights

1446
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:55,160
Speaker 6: at the right time. That is so important. For the

1447
01:06:55,200 --> 01:06:57,800
Speaker 6: most part, he actually had a very tough debut against

1448
01:06:57,840 --> 01:06:59,800
Speaker 6: a man. I think he was only nineteen years old

1449
01:06:59,800 --> 01:07:02,240
Speaker 6: when he debuted against another guy. But other than that,

1450
01:07:02,280 --> 01:07:04,600
Speaker 6: he's looked good and showed some really good skills. Even

1451
01:07:04,600 --> 01:07:07,320
Speaker 6: in that fight, he showed a lot of toughness. So

1452
01:07:07,560 --> 01:07:10,640
Speaker 6: I think to Poia should win this uh by finish

1453
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:15,440
Speaker 6: here against Thickness and uh yeah, another Torporia in the UFC.

1454
01:07:15,640 --> 01:07:16,120
Speaker 6: Pretty cool.

1455
01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:19,480
Speaker 5: I'm just gonna be sitting there thinking about Thickness chokes right, Oh,

1456
01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:22,480
Speaker 5: it's right. Look Kobe Thickness. You imagine if he knocks

1457
01:07:22,480 --> 01:07:23,480
Speaker 5: the motherfucker out.

1458
01:07:23,560 --> 01:07:26,920
Speaker 6: Like the dude he's got a sister or something, or

1459
01:07:27,120 --> 01:07:28,960
Speaker 6: like his mom. You know, he's probably had a lot

1460
01:07:28,960 --> 01:07:31,520
Speaker 6: of fights, so I think, uh for sure, Yeah, good,

1461
01:07:31,600 --> 01:07:33,560
Speaker 6: Kolbe could spoil, could spoil someone.

1462
01:07:33,680 --> 01:07:36,240
Speaker 5: What do you do if you're obese? Last name thickness,

1463
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:39,960
Speaker 5: What do you do with your surname thickness?

1464
01:07:40,080 --> 01:07:43,640
Speaker 3: You probably lose weight. I don't know we had Hay,

1465
01:07:44,480 --> 01:07:46,000
Speaker 3: We haven't had. He had a heavy set kid in

1466
01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:48,280
Speaker 3: our class that his last name was Am and he

1467
01:07:48,360 --> 01:07:50,560
Speaker 3: was more really obese that couldn't really walk because last

1468
01:07:50,600 --> 01:07:52,480
Speaker 3: name was I forget his first name, but that was

1469
01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:56,760
Speaker 3: pretty brutal on him. Everybody to make sure of him.

1470
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:58,959
Speaker 3: But he was an asshole everybody. It's like, buddy, there's

1471
01:07:59,040 --> 01:08:00,960
Speaker 3: so many things I can say right now, but I'm not.

1472
01:08:01,080 --> 01:08:01,880
Speaker 3: I'm a nice guy.

1473
01:08:02,120 --> 01:08:02,760
Speaker 2: Keep it moving.

1474
01:08:03,360 --> 01:08:06,600

1485
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:46,200
Speaker 5: Big Tray. Nolan another product of Dana White's Contender series.

1486
01:08:46,240 --> 01:08:49,479
Speaker 5: He's only twenty four, born March eighth in the year

1487
01:08:49,479 --> 01:08:52,240
Speaker 5: two thousand. He fought three times Bry last year won

1488
01:08:52,360 --> 01:08:56,400
Speaker 5: his last two. Your thoughts on Nolan here versus vicuslav

1489
01:08:56,520 --> 01:08:58,880
Speaker 5: Slava clause Barshow I.

1490
01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 3: Like when guys with difficult have nicknames and they kind

1491
01:09:01,280 --> 01:09:03,519
Speaker 3: of go by the nickname. So Slava Claus is right

1492
01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:06,000
Speaker 3: my wheelhouse, you know what I mean. This dude likes

1493
01:09:06,040 --> 01:09:07,960
Speaker 3: to go to war, That's what he does. You know,

1494
01:09:08,000 --> 01:09:10,920
Speaker 3: his takedown offence is not very good, but he's going

1495
01:09:10,960 --> 01:09:13,519
Speaker 3: against a fellow striker and Tom Nolan who wants to strike.

1496
01:09:13,560 --> 01:09:15,240
Speaker 3: And listen, you know, I got the backwards hat on

1497
01:09:15,320 --> 01:09:19,879
Speaker 3: today because I mean fucking business. Your boy's been grinding, wild, grieving,

1498
01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:22,120
Speaker 3: you know what I mean, a double g week. Not

1499
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:25,080
Speaker 3: many people do with that. Slava Claus was gonna be

1500
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:28,000
Speaker 3: my pick. However, he went and gainst a long, lanky

1501
01:09:28,040 --> 01:09:30,599
Speaker 3: guy and Chase Chase Hooper, and Chase Hooper put him down,

1502
01:09:31,000 --> 01:09:33,400
Speaker 3: Chase Hooper put him on skates for a couple of times.

1503
01:09:33,600 --> 01:09:36,160
Speaker 3: You're going against Tom Nolan, who's got that great up knees,

1504
01:09:36,200 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 3: A very tall, long guy. Slava Claus got to deal

1505
01:09:39,320 --> 01:09:40,960
Speaker 3: with a lot of range here. He might be the

1506
01:09:40,960 --> 01:09:43,680
Speaker 3: ones that wants to wrestle. Not really sure, however, what

1507
01:09:43,840 --> 01:09:46,519
Speaker 3: throws me pause? What doesn't really load me up on

1508
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:48,320
Speaker 3: Tom Nolan even though he is gonna be my pick

1509
01:09:48,680 --> 01:09:50,920
Speaker 3: was is Alex Rayes fight. He couldn't get Alex Rayes

1510
01:09:50,920 --> 01:09:53,360
Speaker 3: out of there, and Alex rays had a long history

1511
01:09:53,360 --> 01:09:55,360
Speaker 3: of injuries and haven't been and there's been a way

1512
01:09:55,400 --> 01:09:57,519
Speaker 3: for while. He couldn't get him out of there. That

1513
01:09:57,640 --> 01:10:00,960
Speaker 3: to me lacks confidence. I'm playing this number plus money. However,

1514
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:03,519
Speaker 3: I do like dogs. I like a dog shot here.

1515
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:05,960
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take Tom Nolan. I think he gets it done.

1516
01:10:05,960 --> 01:10:07,479
Speaker 3: I think he can actually finished off the coast on

1517
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,880
Speaker 3: the feet as well, if he's got some good submissions.

1518
01:10:09,880 --> 01:10:11,720
Speaker 3: We might be looking for a club and sub But

1519
01:10:11,920 --> 01:10:13,000
Speaker 3: give me Tom and Nolan.

1520
01:10:13,640 --> 01:10:16,800
Speaker 5: Kem Flovicheslav barshow minus won thirty five Tommy Nolan plus

1521
01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:18,160
Speaker 5: one fourteen Your thoughts.

1522
01:10:18,360 --> 01:10:19,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, not gonna spend a whole lot of time here

1523
01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:22,040
Speaker 6: on this one, but I think that Borchev is going

1524
01:10:22,080 --> 01:10:24,479
Speaker 6: to have the better hands and Nolan's gonna have the

1525
01:10:24,520 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 6: better kicking game. Nolan's got to keep him on the

1526
01:10:27,520 --> 01:10:31,519
Speaker 6: outside and Borsche Borschauv has a good shot if he's

1527
01:10:31,560 --> 01:10:33,640
Speaker 6: able to get on the inside and Lanso shots. We

1528
01:10:33,720 --> 01:10:38,799
Speaker 6: have seen Nolan get caught in the past in that range,

1529
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,560
Speaker 6: so he's got to be careful there. But when you

1530
01:10:40,600 --> 01:10:42,720
Speaker 6: get a fight that's this close, and when you get

1531
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,439
Speaker 6: a guy as lanky as Nolan, I like Nolan's shot there.

1532
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:48,800
Speaker 6: I think it's worth the underdog pick all right.

1533
01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:50,479
Speaker 3: Feature prelim in the featherweight division.

1534
01:10:50,479 --> 01:10:54,360
Speaker 5: Gabriel Santos minus two thirty four Jack Jenkins plus one

1535
01:10:54,520 --> 01:10:58,639
Speaker 5: ninety Santo's trains under Dabby Hamosh. He is a former

1536
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:03,759
Speaker 5: LFA champion brown belt, good finishing skills. Perhaps the surprise

1537
01:11:03,840 --> 01:11:06,160
Speaker 5: of some Brie, he is a healthy modus two thirty

1538
01:11:06,200 --> 01:11:09,360
Speaker 5: favorite here on the road against Melbourn's far Jack Jenkins.

1539
01:11:09,800 --> 01:11:13,400
Speaker 3: Who do you love? Brian Petrie shocked at this line. Absolutely,

1540
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,320
Speaker 3: I had a double triple check all the books shocked.

1541
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:18,040
Speaker 6: I want Jack Jenkins all day, babe.

1542
01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:20,200
Speaker 3: I mean he's got one slip up in the UC,

1543
01:11:20,320 --> 01:11:23,840
Speaker 3: and that's against the fucking pit bull, Chepi Madiskat. I mean,

1544
01:11:23,880 --> 01:11:26,719
Speaker 3: Chepy Madiscut is beating everybody. You can't slow that guy down.

1545
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:29,640
Speaker 3: Cabracentos is one in two in the UFC. Yeah you

1546
01:11:29,640 --> 01:11:32,040
Speaker 3: look good against danmore Noma. We got put out. Yeah

1547
01:11:32,080 --> 01:11:34,000
Speaker 3: you look good against Laurol Mur. Everybody lost and he

1548
01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:36,960
Speaker 3: beat into his last time out. Who's really done nothing right.

1549
01:11:37,240 --> 01:11:39,639
Speaker 3: I'm not knocking the guy. The guy's got obviously phenomenal skills.

1550
01:11:39,640 --> 01:11:41,880
Speaker 3: He's here for a reason. But Jack Jenkins really good

1551
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:45,280
Speaker 3: lake kids, really athletic, really good movement. My only problem

1552
01:11:45,320 --> 01:11:47,720
Speaker 3: with Jenkins is when he gets a guy hurt. And

1553
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:49,360
Speaker 3: this isn't the case for every fighter, but when he

1554
01:11:49,360 --> 01:11:51,920
Speaker 3: gets a guy hurt, instead of choosing your shots on

1555
01:11:51,960 --> 01:11:53,679
Speaker 3: the feet and really trying to take him on the feet,

1556
01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:54,960
Speaker 3: he goes back to what he wants to do, and

1557
01:11:55,000 --> 01:11:57,639
Speaker 3: that's take you down. And Herbie burns his last time out,

1558
01:11:57,680 --> 01:11:59,960
Speaker 3: Herbie the love Bote. You could have taken that guy

1559
01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,439
Speaker 3: out quite quickly instead of the third round, but kind

1560
01:12:02,439 --> 01:12:04,519
Speaker 3: of played with his food a little bit. He's done

1561
01:12:04,520 --> 01:12:06,240
Speaker 3: that in the past as well. That's a little bit

1562
01:12:06,280 --> 01:12:08,680
Speaker 3: of experience that you need to build along the way.

1563
01:12:08,720 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 3: I think this guy could be a real killer. I

1564
01:12:10,479 --> 01:12:12,439
Speaker 3: think he's gonna kick Santo's legs up. I think he's

1565
01:12:12,439 --> 01:12:14,000
Speaker 3: the stuff some takedowns. I think we're gonna get a

1566
01:12:14,040 --> 01:12:17,160
Speaker 3: nice little underdog shot here plus one ninety. I'm all

1567
01:12:17,200 --> 01:12:19,960
Speaker 3: over Jack Jenkins. Baby, who looks exactly like Benson Boone.

1568
01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:21,800
Speaker 3: By the way, if you guys know who that is,

1569
01:12:21,840 --> 01:12:24,240
Speaker 3: I mean the guy. They're identical twins. But give me

1570
01:12:24,320 --> 01:12:25,160
Speaker 3: Jack Jenkins.

1571
01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:29,639
Speaker 5: Kenny Jenkins has been featured out a lot of big cards,

1572
01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:31,960
Speaker 5: ABC and pay per view only. This will be his

1573
01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:34,120
Speaker 5: fourth appearance on a number card in his five UFC

1574
01:12:34,160 --> 01:12:36,439
Speaker 5: starts to Brian's point three to one out of the

1575
01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:40,360
Speaker 5: shoot to begin his UFC career. Last win was August

1576
01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:44,080
Speaker 5: seventeenth of twenty twenty four. Jenkins plus one ninety or

1577
01:12:44,080 --> 01:12:45,360
Speaker 5: Santos minus two thirty for.

1578
01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:47,880
Speaker 3: You, I want you, I Need you, Mac.

1579
01:12:48,280 --> 01:12:51,719
Speaker 6: I'm sorry that songs in my head now. My daughter's

1580
01:12:51,720 --> 01:12:53,519
Speaker 6: been singing that for the last couple of weeks. All right,

1581
01:12:53,680 --> 01:12:57,120
Speaker 6: So I have a little bit of a different take.

1582
01:12:57,160 --> 01:12:59,360
Speaker 6: I think Jack Jenkins certainly has a lot of potential,

1583
01:12:59,360 --> 01:13:02,120
Speaker 6: There's no question about it. Athletically, I think he's a

1584
01:13:02,160 --> 01:13:05,519
Speaker 6: little bit of a notch above Gabrielle Santos. However, I

1585
01:13:05,520 --> 01:13:10,160
Speaker 6: think Santos has the better overall game. Jenkins sometimes doesn't

1586
01:13:10,200 --> 01:13:12,439
Speaker 6: make the best of decisions, as you kind of alluded

1587
01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:14,920
Speaker 6: to during fights, and that is a concern for me

1588
01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:19,360
Speaker 6: because Santos tends to make good decisions and I don't

1589
01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,120
Speaker 6: see a huge disparity on the feet. In my opinion,

1590
01:13:22,160 --> 01:13:24,720
Speaker 6: I think Santos can actually hang with him there. I

1591
01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,080
Speaker 6: think he might be the more potent striker in regards

1592
01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:32,560
Speaker 6: to power. Jenkins very athletically overall, athletic overall, but I

1593
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:34,760
Speaker 6: don't see him with like that one shot kind of

1594
01:13:34,760 --> 01:13:37,880
Speaker 6: put you on your butt kind of power. It's possible,

1595
01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:42,479
Speaker 6: but he moves pretty well, but get it, tends to

1596
01:13:42,479 --> 01:13:45,840
Speaker 6: get to give up takedowns at inopportune times, and that's

1597
01:13:45,840 --> 01:13:48,280
Speaker 6: where Santos can really expose him, not only just by

1598
01:13:48,320 --> 01:13:51,920
Speaker 6: like stealing rounds, but I think getting superior position and

1599
01:13:52,000 --> 01:13:55,599
Speaker 6: maybe wearing him out in those positions. I also think

1600
01:13:55,600 --> 01:13:57,240
Speaker 6: he's going to be a submission threat as well. So

1601
01:13:57,479 --> 01:13:59,880
Speaker 6: give me the Brazilian Gabrielle Santos. I think this is

1602
01:13:59,920 --> 01:14:01,600
Speaker 6: a kid with a lot of potential.

1603
01:14:01,680 --> 01:14:02,360
Speaker 3: I like him.

1604
01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:06,160
Speaker 6: His his fight against Laron Murphy, I think was a

1605
01:14:06,240 --> 01:14:10,080
Speaker 6: nice kind of uh, you know, hint or tease. This

1606
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:13,160
Speaker 6: could could be. So that was a split decision loss.

1607
01:14:13,200 --> 01:14:13,759
Speaker 3: That was close.

1608
01:14:13,840 --> 01:14:17,280
Speaker 5: But give me Santo's nicely done by the way, nem

1609
01:14:17,360 --> 01:14:20,120
Speaker 5: jar Gall to men Den Burrell's nickname, Brian is art

1610
01:14:20,160 --> 01:14:23,120
Speaker 5: of knockout, So I didn't leverage that at the end

1611
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:24,040
Speaker 5: of a fight, be like.

1612
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:27,559
Speaker 6: Art of knockout the moniker.

1613
01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:29,679
Speaker 3: Right right, his nickname name.

1614
01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:33,880
Speaker 5: You know, yeah, Cody, that's funny shit right Cody right

1615
01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:36,360
Speaker 5: now l m A oh yeah, art of knockdown, living

1616
01:14:36,439 --> 01:14:39,320
Speaker 5: up to his nickname. No, you need to memorize. To

1617
01:14:39,479 --> 01:14:42,080
Speaker 5: men den Burrell, right, you have to. And oftentimes when

1618
01:14:42,080 --> 01:14:45,960
Speaker 5: I get on any sort of pronunciation podium, I'm I'm arrogant,

1619
01:14:45,960 --> 01:14:48,880
Speaker 5: and yet all I'm trying to do is right by

1620
01:14:48,920 --> 01:14:52,400
Speaker 5: the fighters, truly, like I'm really not not looking for friends,

1621
01:14:52,520 --> 01:14:55,679
Speaker 5: trying to do right by the fighters and maybe break

1622
01:14:55,760 --> 01:14:58,719
Speaker 5: eighty as a golfer one time in my life before I.

1623
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:01,400
Speaker 3: Listen a guy who got his last name butchered by

1624
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:05,320
Speaker 3: like substitute teachers his whole life. I appreciate you going.

1625
01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:07,439
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give this guy respect. He's fighting. I'm gonna

1626
01:15:07,439 --> 01:15:08,880
Speaker 3: get his name fucking right. You know I used to

1627
01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:12,960
Speaker 3: get Petrie pet rye uh So it's nice when people

1628
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:14,400
Speaker 3: get their shit right, you know what I mean? In

1629
01:15:14,439 --> 01:15:17,120
Speaker 3: your your first class when it comes to that, Johnny, Well,

1630
01:15:17,120 --> 01:15:17,679
Speaker 3: thank you, buddy.

1631
01:15:17,680 --> 01:15:22,200
Speaker 5: And maybe I am leveraging my podcast un fairly to

1632
01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 5: practice to men.

1633
01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:25,639
Speaker 3: Den Burrell. So let us get to the pay perview

1634
01:15:25,800 --> 01:15:28,120
Speaker 3: main card opener.

1635
01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:30,280
Speaker 5: In the weltweight division, the Celtic Kid Jake Matthews modus

1636
01:15:30,360 --> 01:15:33,640
Speaker 5: two eighteen. Francisco Prato is plus one point eighty. So

1637
01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:36,160
Speaker 5: how about this research, Kenny, and we'll lead with you here.

1638
01:15:36,520 --> 01:15:39,960
Speaker 5: So Proto is still only twenty two, he has three

1639
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:43,960
Speaker 5: UFC fights under his belt. Jake Matthews fought seven times

1640
01:15:44,000 --> 01:15:47,040
Speaker 5: in the UFC before his twenty third birthday, and he

1641
01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:50,400
Speaker 5: still has such an appetite for MMA knowledge and improvement.

1642
01:15:50,439 --> 01:15:53,920
Speaker 5: You gotta respect what Jake Matthews has done. Here he

1643
01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:56,760
Speaker 5: takes on a Proto who hasn't competed since a Unanimouism

1644
01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:58,920
Speaker 5: lost to Daniel Zellhuber. That was all the way back

1645
01:15:58,920 --> 01:16:01,960
Speaker 5: in February of twenty twenty, so nearly a year away

1646
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,240
Speaker 5: for Prodo can flow taken on Jake Matthews here in

1647
01:16:04,280 --> 01:16:05,200
Speaker 5: the welterweight division.

1648
01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 6: Did we call Jake Matthews' debut? Yeah, very nice, Brian.

1649
01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 6: By the way, you should have heard John's Draftking Breed.

1650
01:16:13,200 --> 01:16:16,040
Speaker 6: It was just money, like the small print that everyone

1651
01:16:16,080 --> 01:16:19,960
Speaker 6: screws up and killed. All right, So I think this

1652
01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:23,080
Speaker 6: is a really good fight for Jake Matthews, who has

1653
01:16:23,120 --> 01:16:26,400
Speaker 6: a ton of experience. As you talked about John Proto.

1654
01:16:26,560 --> 01:16:30,400
Speaker 6: It's kind of like I think of the movie is

1655
01:16:30,439 --> 01:16:35,479
Speaker 6: It Office Space, where it's like, what exactly do you

1656
01:16:35,720 --> 01:16:41,160
Speaker 6: do here? And Pradu listen. He's he's good, he's fine,

1657
01:16:41,200 --> 01:16:44,320
Speaker 6: but I'm just not sure where his strength lies besides

1658
01:16:44,320 --> 01:16:47,840
Speaker 6: his toughness, Like he's a really tough guy, but there's

1659
01:16:47,880 --> 01:16:49,880
Speaker 6: no skills where I'm like, wow, you got to watch

1660
01:16:49,880 --> 01:16:52,280
Speaker 6: out for that. Not again someone like Matthews. I just

1661
01:16:52,280 --> 01:16:54,800
Speaker 6: don't see him being a tremendous threat there. I think

1662
01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:56,599
Speaker 6: Matthews is gonna be a little bit better, a little

1663
01:16:56,640 --> 01:16:58,400
Speaker 6: more powerful on the feet, and again, this is a

1664
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:01,000
Speaker 6: fight at welterway, you know, I think his best weight

1665
01:17:01,040 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 6: classes is one fifty five and it's not like he's

1666
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:06,599
Speaker 6: big in that weight class there, And I'm not trying

1667
01:17:06,600 --> 01:17:08,759
Speaker 6: to poop on him. I'm just trying to be honest

1668
01:17:08,760 --> 01:17:11,680
Speaker 6: here with the antiquet Florian podcast listeners here. So I

1669
01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:14,000
Speaker 6: like Matthews and I like that Matthews pretty big.

1670
01:17:14,640 --> 01:17:17,479
Speaker 5: So we have some sound bites on the board right

1671
01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:19,439
Speaker 5: flight of the concords here a.

1672
01:17:19,360 --> 01:17:23,040
Speaker 2: Wingman, and we got it. All the girls love us.

1673
01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:25,280
Speaker 3: We're like when right, and then we got like playing

1674
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:27,080
Speaker 3: friends and automobiles.

1675
01:17:27,040 --> 01:17:30,240
Speaker 6: Because I'm the real article. What see is what you get.

1676
01:17:33,200 --> 01:17:34,760
Speaker 5: And at some point I'm going to figure out which

1677
01:17:34,760 --> 01:17:37,880
Speaker 5: button I'm going to replace with what exactly would you

1678
01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 5: say here? That's very accurate one, yeah, So working that

1679
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:45,280
Speaker 5: into his mixed Martial arts analytics as only he could.

1680
01:17:45,280 --> 01:17:49,200
Speaker 5: But Jake Matthews, yes, right, like continuing to evolve despite

1681
01:17:49,520 --> 01:17:52,120
Speaker 5: twenty UFC fights, thirteen and seven after the win over

1682
01:17:52,160 --> 01:17:54,800
Speaker 5: Phil Row last June at UFC three OT three O

1683
01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:57,960
Speaker 5: T three O two. So Brian, I didn't find any

1684
01:17:57,960 --> 01:18:02,680
Speaker 5: Francisco Prato injury nor any bout cancellations. You never know

1685
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,760
Speaker 5: why a guy might take a year off and there

1686
01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,559
Speaker 5: is developmental time and theory that comes with that. What

1687
01:18:07,600 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 5: are your thoughts on this main card opener here at Welterwait,

1688
01:18:10,200 --> 01:18:11,040
Speaker 5: you like Matthews the.

1689
01:18:11,040 --> 01:18:12,160
Speaker 3: Favorite or Proto the dot?

1690
01:18:12,640 --> 01:18:12,800
Speaker 4: You know?

1691
01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:15,679
Speaker 5: I think Proto takes the insurance claims to the insurance

1692
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:17,599
Speaker 5: A jester. He's a people person, That's.

1693
01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:18,280
Speaker 2: What he does here.

1694
01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:23,000
Speaker 3: Listen, Prado, he's your typical Argentine fighter. He is. We

1695
01:18:23,080 --> 01:18:25,439
Speaker 3: all can praise how tough they are. There's just a

1696
01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:28,639
Speaker 3: lack of well roundedness there. They obviously like to stand

1697
01:18:28,680 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 3: up and bang. That's what he did with el Huber.

1698
01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:32,840
Speaker 3: My thought with this l Huber fighters, he got dinged

1699
01:18:32,920 --> 01:18:34,400
Speaker 3: up a little bit, and you're like, listen, you're young,

1700
01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:36,920
Speaker 3: Let's rest the brain. Let's rest everything here, kid.

1701
01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:37,400
Speaker 6: You know what I mean?

1702
01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:39,360
Speaker 3: You got you were in a you know, a heavy fight.

1703
01:18:39,960 --> 01:18:42,479
Speaker 3: Let's get better, right, And I'm sure he's gonna come

1704
01:18:42,479 --> 01:18:44,640
Speaker 3: out a little bit better. Stand up is still pretty good.

1705
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,000
Speaker 3: He has that power. Most Argentine fighters, even on the

1706
01:18:47,000 --> 01:18:49,799
Speaker 3: boxing side, they always just come with a with power.

1707
01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:52,599
Speaker 3: But Jake Matthews, he's a guy man. I'm really really

1708
01:18:52,680 --> 01:18:54,920
Speaker 3: rooted for him. He's been really up and down in

1709
01:18:54,920 --> 01:18:57,360
Speaker 3: the UFC has some good runs, and I really think

1710
01:18:57,400 --> 01:18:59,960
Speaker 3: that some of his performances if he can just duplicate

1711
01:19:00,200 --> 01:19:02,200
Speaker 3: that every fight night, which I know is easier said

1712
01:19:02,200 --> 01:19:04,439
Speaker 3: than done. This is the guy we're talking about in

1713
01:19:04,479 --> 01:19:07,120
Speaker 3: this division, right, He's thirty, gonna be thirty one this year.

1714
01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:09,840
Speaker 3: Foot on the gas, Bud, Foot on the gas. You've

1715
01:19:09,840 --> 01:19:12,599
Speaker 3: been to the UFC forever, Foot on the gas show

1716
01:19:12,680 --> 01:19:14,679
Speaker 3: some wins. I think this is a winnable fight here.

1717
01:19:14,920 --> 01:19:16,920
Speaker 3: I think the UFC is doing him a favor by

1718
01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:20,519
Speaker 3: giving him Prodo in Australia in front of his hometown crowd.

1719
01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:23,439
Speaker 3: Good looking kid. Really showcase fight too, because if he

1720
01:19:23,479 --> 01:19:25,840
Speaker 3: wants to slang in bang, Prodo is there. I actually

1721
01:19:25,840 --> 01:19:27,599
Speaker 3: think Jake Matthews gonna take Hi down and probably take

1722
01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:30,560
Speaker 3: a neck. I think Jake Matthews' jokes are pretty underrated,

1723
01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:32,840
Speaker 3: and I think Produa is gonna get slept here in

1724
01:19:32,840 --> 01:19:35,280
Speaker 3: this fight by a submission. So give me Jake Matthews.

1725
01:19:35,360 --> 01:19:37,080
Speaker 3: I'm with Keny. I'm pretty big on him as well.

1726
01:19:37,360 --> 01:19:38,360
Speaker 3: I like this spot for him.

1727
01:19:38,760 --> 01:19:39,479
Speaker 6: Got to think when we.

1728
01:19:39,479 --> 01:19:41,599
Speaker 5: Get to place your bets later that these guys might

1729
01:19:41,600 --> 01:19:46,040
Speaker 5: be putting down some coin on Jake Matthews. You know,

1730
01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:48,120
Speaker 5: you sounded like Brendon shab when he said foot on

1731
01:19:48,160 --> 01:19:50,519
Speaker 5: the gas. But I think my favorite word that shab

1732
01:19:50,640 --> 01:19:51,519
Speaker 5: utters is bud.

1733
01:19:51,600 --> 01:19:53,760
Speaker 3: He's gotta be better than that. But does he does that?

1734
01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:54,479
Speaker 2: All?

1735
01:19:54,560 --> 01:19:54,680
Speaker 4: Right?

1736
01:19:54,880 --> 01:19:57,479
Speaker 5: Next up on the main car light Heavyweight division, Hudelfho

1737
01:19:57,840 --> 01:20:02,120
Speaker 5: Belato minus one sixty two. Jimmy Kruk comes back plus

1738
01:20:02,280 --> 01:20:06,719
Speaker 5: one thirty six the Bendigo Bomber. Jimmy Kruk contemplated retirement,

1739
01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:08,479
Speaker 5: took a break, now returns for the first time since

1740
01:20:08,479 --> 01:20:10,760
Speaker 5: you have seally two ninety. That was a loss to

1741
01:20:10,800 --> 01:20:13,880
Speaker 5: Alonzo Menifield July twenty twenty three, so eighteen months or

1742
01:20:13,960 --> 01:20:17,200
Speaker 5: so out of the octagon, Brian for Krut, now returning

1743
01:20:17,240 --> 01:20:19,920
Speaker 5: against the twelve and two Hudolpho Balata, who also has

1744
01:20:20,040 --> 01:20:22,519
Speaker 5: been out a while. Brian Petrie, who do you like

1745
01:20:22,560 --> 01:20:23,439
Speaker 5: a two oh five kid?

1746
01:20:23,920 --> 01:20:26,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought my brain was playing tricks on me.

1747
01:20:26,200 --> 01:20:27,639
Speaker 3: I had to look this up as I could have sworre.

1748
01:20:27,720 --> 01:20:29,720
Speaker 3: Jimmy Cruit laid the gloves down in the octagon and

1749
01:20:29,760 --> 01:20:32,000
Speaker 3: made a whole thing. Now he's back. He's still a

1750
01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:33,760
Speaker 3: young man or whatever, but you know, he's just I

1751
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:35,320
Speaker 3: feel like you know, there was a quote saying he

1752
01:20:35,360 --> 01:20:37,040
Speaker 3: had to find his love for fighting. I get that

1753
01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:38,680
Speaker 3: when you're fighting for so long in your twenties, you

1754
01:20:38,760 --> 01:20:41,160
Speaker 3: get a little burnt out, and especially when you're losing,

1755
01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:42,759
Speaker 3: and you're losing the way like he did with Anthony

1756
01:20:42,800 --> 01:20:44,560
Speaker 3: Smith where his leg just got taken from him, and

1757
01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:48,880
Speaker 3: then or Lonso Menifield performances which were just absolute words

1758
01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:50,439
Speaker 3: and me taking a shot from that guy's gonna take

1759
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:52,240
Speaker 3: a couple of years off your career for sure.

1760
01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:53,920
Speaker 6: But Jimmy and the Brute Cruit.

1761
01:20:54,360 --> 01:20:57,200
Speaker 3: This dude I think has some skills, but I just

1762
01:20:57,280 --> 01:20:59,240
Speaker 3: don't know if he can put it in together in

1763
01:20:59,360 --> 01:21:02,599
Speaker 3: a three round fight. He's good in round one and Blota,

1764
01:21:02,680 --> 01:21:05,360
Speaker 3: who I thought. I did get familiar with this guy again.

1765
01:21:05,400 --> 01:21:06,800
Speaker 3: I thought, oh, here's a guy who just comes out

1766
01:21:06,880 --> 01:21:09,720
Speaker 3: knocks everybod out right. He's actually really well rounded. He

1767
01:21:09,760 --> 01:21:11,479
Speaker 3: actually has some real skills on the mat as well.

1768
01:21:11,800 --> 01:21:14,280
Speaker 3: His only kryptonite is Vito Petrina. He can't get by

1769
01:21:14,320 --> 01:21:16,240
Speaker 3: that guy. He's been knocked out by him twice. Other

1770
01:21:16,240 --> 01:21:18,320
Speaker 3: than that, he's looked really good against everyone he's fought.

1771
01:21:19,040 --> 01:21:20,840
Speaker 3: I like Plato here, I like the low number on

1772
01:21:20,960 --> 01:21:22,920
Speaker 3: him too up minus one sixty two over Jumi Krut.

1773
01:21:23,080 --> 01:21:25,000
Speaker 3: I know Jimmy's gonna have the fans behind him. I

1774
01:21:25,120 --> 01:21:27,760
Speaker 3: just I like the layoff to get healthy. I don't

1775
01:21:27,800 --> 01:21:30,360
Speaker 3: know exactly what he's doing, if he's mixing anything up.

1776
01:21:30,360 --> 01:21:32,519
Speaker 3: I know he didn't come to America or anything. You

1777
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:34,040
Speaker 3: don't have to come to America to anything. You know,

1778
01:21:34,200 --> 01:21:37,360
Speaker 3: tons of gym's over in Australia. But I have questions,

1779
01:21:37,520 --> 01:21:39,400
Speaker 3: right and I'm not willing to play the plus money

1780
01:21:39,400 --> 01:21:41,160
Speaker 3: on Jimmy Cruit where there's other dogs in the card.

1781
01:21:41,479 --> 01:21:43,519
Speaker 3: So give me bloatout minus one sixty two. That's a

1782
01:21:43,600 --> 01:21:46,280
Speaker 3: nice little even number there, or medium number that you

1783
01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:48,519
Speaker 3: can throw in a parlay in cash out big. So

1784
01:21:48,800 --> 01:21:51,280
Speaker 3: I like Blato. I think that's a rational handicap.

1785
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:53,599
Speaker 5: A Loto out of Rio de Janeiro trains under Faijio

1786
01:21:53,680 --> 01:21:56,280
Speaker 5: Kava Conte can flow strength and conditioning with the famed

1787
01:21:56,320 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 5: Hojetio Komoish lost season six stand a white tender series

1788
01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:03,720
Speaker 5: to Vtur Patrino, rebounded on season seven, makes good on

1789
01:22:03,800 --> 01:22:07,880
Speaker 5: the UFC debut. Was supposed to fight May of twenty

1790
01:22:07,960 --> 01:22:10,040
Speaker 5: twenty four, pulled out due to injury ends his year

1791
01:22:10,120 --> 01:22:12,320
Speaker 5: plus layoff here and does so on pay per view

1792
01:22:12,840 --> 01:22:14,880
Speaker 5: against Jimmy Crude, who doesn't have a nickname. You can

1793
01:22:14,880 --> 01:22:16,559
Speaker 5: call him the Brute, the bend to Go Bomber. Either way,

1794
01:22:16,600 --> 01:22:18,080
Speaker 5: here's the underdog this weekend Ken Flow.

1795
01:22:18,120 --> 01:22:18,599
Speaker 2: We need to pick.

1796
01:22:19,720 --> 01:22:22,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, So I think the pick on this one is

1797
01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:24,400
Speaker 6: that it probably won't go the distance. I think you

1798
01:22:24,400 --> 01:22:26,519
Speaker 6: should bet the under on this one. These are two

1799
01:22:26,600 --> 01:22:29,439
Speaker 6: Kamakazi pilots going at it. As far as I'm concerned,

1800
01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:33,360
Speaker 6: both of these guys want to be killed or want

1801
01:22:33,479 --> 01:22:36,000
Speaker 6: want to kill, and I think that it's hard to

1802
01:22:36,160 --> 01:22:38,600
Speaker 6: determine which of these guys it's gonna be. If I

1803
01:22:38,680 --> 01:22:41,280
Speaker 6: had a lean though, I think Bolotto. I just think

1804
01:22:41,320 --> 01:22:44,240
Speaker 6: he's a little bit more of a survivor. He has

1805
01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:47,000
Speaker 6: shown his gameness in the past. He's toughest nails, as

1806
01:22:47,080 --> 01:22:51,920
Speaker 6: is Jimmy krup But I think maybe Bolotto should should

1807
01:22:52,000 --> 01:22:54,320
Speaker 6: get it done here. But don't expect this one to

1808
01:22:54,360 --> 01:22:56,000
Speaker 6: go the distance, all right.

1809
01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:58,680
Speaker 5: Next up featured about a heavyweight tallis and tastes shit

1810
01:22:58,760 --> 01:23:03,360
Speaker 5: a minus one fifty five taking on Justin bad Man

1811
01:23:04,040 --> 01:23:07,200
Speaker 5: Tafa plus one point thirty. Now I try to lean

1812
01:23:07,280 --> 01:23:08,799
Speaker 5: into the funt of my job, even.

1813
01:23:08,680 --> 01:23:09,599
Speaker 3: Though it is intensive.

1814
01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:13,160
Speaker 5: But I will say when Justin Tafa fights, the opportunity

1815
01:23:13,280 --> 01:23:16,040
Speaker 5: to potentially drop a bad man on the microphone is

1816
01:23:16,120 --> 01:23:17,480
Speaker 5: really invigorating.

1817
01:23:18,120 --> 01:23:22,200
Speaker 3: Dallison takes Shaida right. We have the audio file. We're

1818
01:23:22,200 --> 01:23:23,320
Speaker 3: gonna play this for you folks.

1819
01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:25,599
Speaker 5: Some of you might remember former New York Yankees first

1820
01:23:25,640 --> 01:23:29,719
Speaker 5: baseman Mark Tshera or former US light heavyweight champion Glover

1821
01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:32,679
Speaker 5: to Shara right. So I was listening to the file,

1822
01:23:32,760 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 5: and indeed it is taste Shaida. So I don't know

1823
01:23:35,240 --> 01:23:37,120
Speaker 5: exactly what we're gonna go with this weekend, but Cody,

1824
01:23:37,160 --> 01:23:38,880
Speaker 5: can you rack that and hit that for me?

1825
01:23:41,560 --> 01:23:42,280
Speaker 2: Aar Lisson?

1826
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:47,680
Speaker 3: They shada a Lison, they shadra.

1827
01:23:49,080 --> 01:23:57,040
Speaker 5: I don't think that Tim inside anyway, he's seven to

1828
01:23:57,160 --> 01:23:59,519
Speaker 5: oh coming up on the UFC debut. Punched his ticket

1829
01:23:59,560 --> 01:24:01,760
Speaker 5: with an ACiE of Arthur Lopez on the Contender series

1830
01:24:01,880 --> 01:24:04,960
Speaker 5: last September. Tough as UFC tested, there is no doubt

1831
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:07,800
Speaker 5: he's also been tested by circumstance of later Forgettable twenty

1832
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:10,120
Speaker 5: twenty four. For him, VP twice had a lot of

1833
01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:14,160
Speaker 5: fights due to injury. Was zero to one on the year, still.

1834
01:24:14,080 --> 01:24:14,720
Speaker 6: Just thirty one.

1835
01:24:14,800 --> 01:24:16,320
Speaker 5: I mean you know, the tough a gang's going to

1836
01:24:16,320 --> 01:24:19,040
Speaker 5: be out in full force representing Brisbane and everything else.

1837
01:24:19,080 --> 01:24:21,320
Speaker 5: But he is the underdog here against the UFC rookie

1838
01:24:21,640 --> 01:24:24,960
Speaker 5: Talison Testa. Which way you go, MVP, I'm so glad.

1839
01:24:25,000 --> 01:24:27,000
Speaker 3: I'm not going to say the Brazilians name the butcher

1840
01:24:27,080 --> 01:24:28,800
Speaker 3: it right now because I'm all over the dog. Baby,

1841
01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:32,960
Speaker 3: you don't. We don't need no meals, we don't need

1842
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:33,519
Speaker 3: no cats.

1843
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:35,559
Speaker 2: We need more dogs.

1844
01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:41,719
Speaker 3: Uh, Justin Dovas No, yeah, baby, the bad man coming listen,

1845
01:24:41,920 --> 01:24:44,680
Speaker 3: Tex Sierra or there you go. I butchered already him

1846
01:24:44,720 --> 01:24:47,719
Speaker 3: on the Contender series. He's seven foot ten, not really

1847
01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:50,920
Speaker 3: sixt seven, but he fights like the typical tall guy

1848
01:24:51,040 --> 01:24:53,960
Speaker 3: with no defense and he was getting clipped in that

1849
01:24:54,120 --> 01:24:56,920
Speaker 3: fight and surviving. And he's a tough dude. He's got

1850
01:24:57,000 --> 01:24:59,760
Speaker 3: good striking himself. He's not quite a sniper like I

1851
01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:03,000
Speaker 3: will want my tall fighters to be. He sometimes engages

1852
01:25:03,040 --> 01:25:05,799
Speaker 3: when guys get closed, and if Justin Tafa gets close,

1853
01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:09,519
Speaker 3: sleep City, You're gonna get put to sleep, Bob, quick

1854
01:25:09,640 --> 01:25:12,000
Speaker 3: nap for you. And I like Tafa here in this spot,

1855
01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:13,960
Speaker 3: I think in front of his hometown crowd. Yes, he's

1856
01:25:13,960 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 3: been inconsistent everything like that. He's going against a fellow

1857
01:25:16,479 --> 01:25:18,320
Speaker 3: guy who's good to want to strike. I think Tafa,

1858
01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:20,080
Speaker 3: maybe I'll be able to stop some of his takedown

1859
01:25:20,120 --> 01:25:22,120
Speaker 3: is concerned he's so tall. Unless this guy's got a

1860
01:25:22,200 --> 01:25:24,439
Speaker 3: wicked tape doown game, which I've not seen on tape.

1861
01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:26,840
Speaker 3: I like Tafa. I like Tafa big on the dog

1862
01:25:26,920 --> 01:25:29,880
Speaker 3: money as well him by knockout round one, I'm gonna

1863
01:25:29,880 --> 01:25:32,160
Speaker 3: play that as well. Just get all the kind of

1864
01:25:32,240 --> 01:25:35,360
Speaker 3: goodies out there. Ken Flow featured offering here at heavyweight

1865
01:25:35,400 --> 01:25:37,680
Speaker 3: talis In to share minus one fifty five Justin and

1866
01:25:37,800 --> 01:25:39,400
Speaker 3: batman Tafa plus one thirty.

1867
01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:41,240
Speaker 6: Who do you like? Go liston?

1868
01:25:41,680 --> 01:25:43,840
Speaker 3: They shaded. Okay, let's see.

1869
01:25:45,320 --> 01:25:48,080
Speaker 6: Gosh, you know this is tricky. I think Brian makes

1870
01:25:48,120 --> 01:25:50,639
Speaker 6: a great point justin Tofa on the inside is gonna

1871
01:25:50,680 --> 01:25:53,360
Speaker 6: be a problem, especially for a guy like Teshda. Now.

1872
01:25:53,600 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 6: I think that Tishada has the link at six foot

1873
01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:58,799
Speaker 6: seven and the striking for that matter, on the outside

1874
01:25:58,880 --> 01:26:01,800
Speaker 6: to keep Tafa on the outside. I also think if

1875
01:26:01,880 --> 01:26:05,040
Speaker 6: he does find that Tafa is breaking that range of

1876
01:26:05,080 --> 01:26:06,840
Speaker 6: getting on the inside, I think he could always mix

1877
01:26:06,920 --> 01:26:10,519
Speaker 6: things up and really expose Tafa's ground game. That's where

1878
01:26:10,600 --> 01:26:13,679
Speaker 6: we see Tafa really get exposed. Because there's no question

1879
01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:15,799
Speaker 6: that Ti Shada is going to be the better grappler,

1880
01:26:16,680 --> 01:26:19,200
Speaker 6: that is clear. Does he have the takedowns though to

1881
01:26:19,400 --> 01:26:19,920
Speaker 6: get it there?

1882
01:26:20,360 --> 01:26:21,120
Speaker 3: That is the question.

1883
01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:24,920
Speaker 6: I'm not so sure Tshada likes to bang, and that

1884
01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:30,080
Speaker 6: could be a big mistake here against Tafa. I'm gonna lean.

1885
01:26:30,200 --> 01:26:33,120
Speaker 6: I'm gonna lean towards the Brazilian. I'm a very bias

1886
01:26:33,240 --> 01:26:37,559
Speaker 6: here for Brazilians. All made card along here, but yeah,

1887
01:26:37,640 --> 01:26:38,479
Speaker 6: give me t Shada.

1888
01:26:39,560 --> 01:26:42,280
Speaker 5: So my twin brother Jason and I at Boston and

1889
01:26:42,400 --> 01:26:45,200
Speaker 5: I have the same DNA, which means that when Kenny

1890
01:26:45,520 --> 01:26:50,440
Speaker 5: starts in the Brazilian Portuguese with that English Brazilian Portuguese,

1891
01:26:50,880 --> 01:26:53,120
Speaker 5: Jay and I have the same appetite for it, which

1892
01:26:53,200 --> 01:26:55,880
Speaker 5: is to say, insatiable. And we could just listen to

1893
01:26:55,960 --> 01:26:59,639
Speaker 5: you do it all show long. So when you start

1894
01:26:59,680 --> 01:27:01,160
Speaker 5: that way and then you give a pick, I heard

1895
01:27:01,240 --> 01:27:02,320
Speaker 5: nothing of what she said.

1896
01:27:03,040 --> 01:27:05,080
Speaker 6: I'll listen back to that inspiration for the.

1897
01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:09,519
Speaker 5: Main event for the Strawweight Championship, Ken Flow lead us

1898
01:27:09,560 --> 01:27:13,080
Speaker 5: off if you would Jong way Lee minus one ten,

1899
01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,479
Speaker 5: Tatiana Suarez minus one ten.

1900
01:27:16,000 --> 01:27:16,800
Speaker 6: This was a pick him.

1901
01:27:16,840 --> 01:27:18,800
Speaker 5: When I sent you guys the odds, I will say

1902
01:27:18,880 --> 01:27:21,760
Speaker 5: we're live on YouTube right now. Tatiana Suarez is the

1903
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:25,240
Speaker 5: minus one eighteen betting favorite. Put that in your pipe,

1904
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:27,879
Speaker 5: smoke it, whatever you want to do with it. Essentially

1905
01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:30,000
Speaker 5: a pick him. We expect two way action right up

1906
01:27:30,080 --> 01:27:32,000
Speaker 5: until fight time. I wouldn't be surprised, as I have

1907
01:27:32,080 --> 01:27:35,240
Speaker 5: said on odd Shark, if we get some real late

1908
01:27:35,360 --> 01:27:38,240
Speaker 5: money on Jeongwei Lee, especially at an underdog price from

1909
01:27:38,280 --> 01:27:40,680
Speaker 5: a whale out there ken Flow. Suarez eleven to zero,

1910
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:44,160
Speaker 5: last win against Jessicon Jraj August twenty twenty three. On

1911
01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:46,240
Speaker 5: the other side, four straight wins for jeongwe Lee, the

1912
01:27:46,320 --> 01:27:49,240
Speaker 5: future Hall of Famer. Other than the two losses for

1913
01:27:49,320 --> 01:27:52,360
Speaker 5: jeanwe Lee against Rosmami Yunis in twenty twenty one, she's

1914
01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:55,160
Speaker 5: been untouchable since her pro debut in twenty thirteen, which

1915
01:27:55,280 --> 01:27:58,320
Speaker 5: was a two round, ten minute fight. Joanwe Lee's the

1916
01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:01,360
Speaker 5: betting underdog this weekend is Tatisuarez tries to rest away

1917
01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:01,800
Speaker 5: the title.

1918
01:28:02,160 --> 01:28:03,200
Speaker 3: Kenny Florin, who do you like?

1919
01:28:04,760 --> 01:28:05,439
Speaker 6: This is interesting?

1920
01:28:05,479 --> 01:28:07,519
Speaker 3: I did a lot of tape study for this one.

1921
01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:12,800
Speaker 6: Jeangwaei Lee athletically is just different than a lot of

1922
01:28:12,920 --> 01:28:16,800
Speaker 6: fighters in the UFC. She is so gifted and she

1923
01:28:16,880 --> 01:28:19,439
Speaker 6: could do a lot inside the octagon. Now why because

1924
01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:21,560
Speaker 6: she's been working on a lot of different aspects of

1925
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:24,360
Speaker 6: her game. I think that she's going to have the

1926
01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:27,920
Speaker 6: advantage with her speed on the feet and with her

1927
01:28:28,680 --> 01:28:32,000
Speaker 6: I guess comfort and trading, especially in the pocket where

1928
01:28:32,080 --> 01:28:34,400
Speaker 6: she needs to be careful though, is up against that

1929
01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:37,959
Speaker 6: cage and on her back against someone like Tatiana Suarez

1930
01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:43,760
Speaker 6: who can make your life absolutely miserable. I watched the

1931
01:28:43,840 --> 01:28:48,080
Speaker 6: fight against yan Yan Chonan, her and Jiangwai Lee, and

1932
01:28:48,320 --> 01:28:51,120
Speaker 6: I noticed that when Waylee would get in trouble or

1933
01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:53,160
Speaker 6: when she was a little bit hesitant on her feet,

1934
01:28:53,160 --> 01:28:55,200
Speaker 6: because I did think she she looked a little bit

1935
01:28:55,320 --> 01:28:57,800
Speaker 6: more vulnerable on her feet than she has and other fights,

1936
01:28:57,800 --> 01:28:59,679
Speaker 6: and a lot of had to do with Jan Chonan

1937
01:29:00,080 --> 01:29:02,880
Speaker 6: and how good she is. But something seemed a little

1938
01:29:02,920 --> 01:29:05,479
Speaker 6: off with Waylee. Whether there's an injury or maybe maybe

1939
01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:07,920
Speaker 6: she's slowing down a little bit, but she seemed a

1940
01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:10,719
Speaker 6: little bit off. But because she's such a great mixed

1941
01:29:10,720 --> 01:29:13,000
Speaker 6: martial artists an athlete, she could mix things up and

1942
01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:16,360
Speaker 6: look for takedowns that's not going to be an option

1943
01:29:16,560 --> 01:29:19,280
Speaker 6: for here against Tatiana Suarez, who's gonna be the better

1944
01:29:19,760 --> 01:29:23,479
Speaker 6: takedown artist here, and for me, that's gonna be a

1945
01:29:23,520 --> 01:29:26,920
Speaker 6: big time problem. Suarez. You know exactly what she's gonna

1946
01:29:26,920 --> 01:29:29,559
Speaker 6: do and you can't stop it. Similar to a Habib

1947
01:29:29,640 --> 01:29:33,599
Speaker 6: Namaga medof And and Suarez. She has the length as well,

1948
01:29:34,360 --> 01:29:36,479
Speaker 6: so she can kind of give why Lee a little

1949
01:29:36,479 --> 01:29:39,880
Speaker 6: bit of problems on the outside. So I like Tatiana

1950
01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:42,320
Speaker 6: Suarez here. I think there's some very good value here

1951
01:29:42,400 --> 01:29:44,280
Speaker 6: for Suarez, who I think a lot of people don't

1952
01:29:44,320 --> 01:29:46,400
Speaker 6: know about. Because of her injuries, she hasn't been as

1953
01:29:46,439 --> 01:29:48,080
Speaker 6: consistent in the last couple of years, but if you

1954
01:29:48,120 --> 01:29:51,280
Speaker 6: watch her early fights, man, she was an absolute juggernaut.

1955
01:29:51,520 --> 01:29:54,000
Speaker 6: I think we'll see that juggernaut back here in the UFC.

1956
01:29:55,040 --> 01:29:57,040
Speaker 6: Give me Tatiana Suarez.

1957
01:29:56,920 --> 01:30:00,080
Speaker 5: Gosh, Ray Longo, Kenny Florian both picking Tatiana Suarez. I

1958
01:30:00,120 --> 01:30:02,000
Speaker 5: don't have to text jaill Son and to know he's

1959
01:30:02,040 --> 01:30:04,439
Speaker 5: going to fall on that side as well. Ryan Petrie,

1960
01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:05,160
Speaker 5: the floor is yours.

1961
01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:09,200
Speaker 3: If you go up back and search my Twitter, you

1962
01:30:09,280 --> 01:30:11,320
Speaker 3: will find that I have said on numerous occasion in

1963
01:30:11,360 --> 01:30:14,160
Speaker 3: Tatiana squaz will fight for the title, will be champion.

1964
01:30:14,240 --> 01:30:17,080
Speaker 3: I think she is that good. I love her fiance, boyfriend, husband.

1965
01:30:17,080 --> 01:30:19,080
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what they're integned when this patriy makes

1966
01:30:19,120 --> 01:30:22,280
Speaker 3: He's very good. Since they've aligned, her submissions have gotten better,

1967
01:30:22,320 --> 01:30:25,519
Speaker 3: her ground game has gotten better. They're you know, training

1968
01:30:25,640 --> 01:30:29,080
Speaker 3: very very well. However, Paulna Kenny Floyd here hit you

1969
01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:33,400
Speaker 3: with you. However, ten fights in the only ten fights

1970
01:30:33,720 --> 01:30:36,560
Speaker 3: and a lot of injury time off against you know,

1971
01:30:36,960 --> 01:30:39,200
Speaker 3: Jean way Lee, who I think I hold to the

1972
01:30:39,280 --> 01:30:42,880
Speaker 3: highest standards and is a killer and has really transitioned

1973
01:30:42,920 --> 01:30:44,400
Speaker 3: to be a grappler. In the last few fights.

1974
01:30:44,439 --> 01:30:47,519
Speaker 5: He lands six takedowns for Jonsrena right still landed over

1975
01:30:47,520 --> 01:30:50,320
Speaker 5: one hundred strikes, but six takedowns, really controlling from the top.

1976
01:30:50,640 --> 01:30:53,040
Speaker 5: She really really worked on the grappling because she lost

1977
01:30:53,080 --> 01:30:55,320
Speaker 5: to the grappling to Rose in the second fight, which

1978
01:30:55,400 --> 01:30:57,519
Speaker 5: was very close, but she's really worked on it. That's

1979
01:30:57,560 --> 01:30:59,200
Speaker 5: not really going to work against Tatiana here.

1980
01:31:00,040 --> 01:31:02,120
Speaker 3: Viking's gonna have to come back that killer instinct, that

1981
01:31:02,280 --> 01:31:04,760
Speaker 3: killer I'm gonna knock you out. I got power, I

1982
01:31:04,760 --> 01:31:06,920
Speaker 3: have Speed's gonna have to come back against Tatiana because

1983
01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:09,240
Speaker 3: Tatiana is going to grapple, she can strike, She's got

1984
01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:12,000
Speaker 3: long range weapons for this division. But at some point

1985
01:31:12,040 --> 01:31:16,679
Speaker 3: I think fights and experience matter. Tatiana going five rounds

1986
01:31:16,880 --> 01:31:19,479
Speaker 3: has me worried. She can win the first couple of

1987
01:31:19,520 --> 01:31:23,599
Speaker 3: rounds with Jean Wan Lee can win the later half

1988
01:31:23,640 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 3: of the rounds and maybe even get a finish if

1989
01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:28,400
Speaker 3: Tatiana completely gases. I don't think she's gonna gas because

1990
01:31:28,400 --> 01:31:30,920
Speaker 3: she's a caliber athlete that is gonna be ready. But

1991
01:31:31,000 --> 01:31:34,080
Speaker 3: I think this might be in this surprising myself because

1992
01:31:34,080 --> 01:31:35,880
Speaker 3: I love Tatiana Squares. I think this might be a

1993
01:31:35,920 --> 01:31:38,240
Speaker 3: little too much right now. I want to see more

1994
01:31:38,280 --> 01:31:41,120
Speaker 3: from Tatianna Squarer, So give me a still, give me

1995
01:31:41,200 --> 01:31:43,439
Speaker 3: Jean Waa Lee, and I like her that she's gonna

1996
01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:45,439
Speaker 3: be the underdog as well. That's gonna be a bet

1997
01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:46,360
Speaker 3: I will be placing.

1998
01:31:46,920 --> 01:31:48,880
Speaker 5: I think if you're a whale better and there is

1999
01:31:48,920 --> 01:31:51,680
Speaker 5: a plus number next to Jeongwele, you're gonna have to

2000
01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:53,800
Speaker 5: at least take a long, hard look. And I don't

2001
01:31:53,840 --> 01:31:55,880
Speaker 5: know the ascent to which experience is going to factor

2002
01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,919
Speaker 5: into the outcome, but gosh, if there were any advantage

2003
01:31:58,960 --> 01:32:02,400
Speaker 5: for Jeongwe lee that championship experience in the UFC. If

2004
01:32:02,400 --> 01:32:04,280
Speaker 5: it's not going to pay dividends on this night, that

2005
01:32:04,479 --> 01:32:08,759
Speaker 5: maybe then maybe it never would. All right, Middleweight championship rematch.

2006
01:32:08,800 --> 01:32:09,920
Speaker 6: How good is this? This time?

2007
01:32:09,960 --> 01:32:12,320
Speaker 5: The red corner belongs to Drinkus Duplessi, the minus two

2008
01:32:12,360 --> 01:32:14,639
Speaker 5: oh five favorite in defense of his title here against

2009
01:32:14,680 --> 01:32:18,600
Speaker 5: the plus one seventy underdog Sean Strickland DDP. Kenny absolutely

2010
01:32:18,680 --> 01:32:22,439
Speaker 5: surging after the successful title defense against Israel at Asnia. Strickland,

2011
01:32:22,439 --> 01:32:23,960
Speaker 5: of course, on the other side, did fight in the

2012
01:32:24,040 --> 01:32:27,640
Speaker 5: interim dominated Pallo Costa over five rounds. Could not have

2013
01:32:27,800 --> 01:32:30,800
Speaker 5: finished that fight any stronger than he did. Feels like

2014
01:32:30,880 --> 01:32:33,400
Speaker 5: we need finality in this little rivalry. Perhaps we get

2015
01:32:33,439 --> 01:32:36,120
Speaker 5: it at UFC three twelve this weekend. Kenny, who wins

2016
01:32:36,160 --> 01:32:38,479
Speaker 5: the UFC Midawaight Championship in Sydney.

2017
01:32:39,600 --> 01:32:41,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, well, it was a great time calling the fight

2018
01:32:41,880 --> 01:32:44,560
Speaker 6: with you for UFC fight passing and going over, you know,

2019
01:32:44,760 --> 01:32:48,120
Speaker 6: round by round what happened in their first meeting. And

2020
01:32:48,360 --> 01:32:50,679
Speaker 6: you know, anytime I see that, you know, I'm looking

2021
01:32:50,800 --> 01:32:54,400
Speaker 6: for some kind of strong argument from the guy who

2022
01:32:54,720 --> 01:32:59,080
Speaker 6: lost to tell me that something's gonna be different, and

2023
01:32:59,320 --> 01:33:02,200
Speaker 6: while there are adjustments that can be made, I still

2024
01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:05,360
Speaker 6: think that Strickland fought a great fight. I think that

2025
01:33:05,600 --> 01:33:08,720
Speaker 6: DDP turned it up at the right time. And I

2026
01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:12,479
Speaker 6: also think that DDP, because of those five rounds, if

2027
01:33:12,520 --> 01:33:15,120
Speaker 6: you can almost see it as a continuation of that fight,

2028
01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:18,559
Speaker 6: that DDP will be that much more prepared heading into

2029
01:33:18,640 --> 01:33:23,000
Speaker 6: round one and will prevent, in theory, Strickland from getting

2030
01:33:23,040 --> 01:33:26,479
Speaker 6: that same lead that he experienced first time out. So

2031
01:33:26,880 --> 01:33:29,560
Speaker 6: I think that DDP understood that he can't be the

2032
01:33:29,600 --> 01:33:32,000
Speaker 6: guy going backwards. He's got to get off to a

2033
01:33:32,040 --> 01:33:35,320
Speaker 6: good start, get those leg kicks going early, and also

2034
01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:37,959
Speaker 6: look for those takedowns to try to tire out Strickland

2035
01:33:38,040 --> 01:33:42,000
Speaker 6: like he did the first time. Strickland has a tremendous

2036
01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:46,720
Speaker 6: gas tank when he's moving forward, when he's comfortable, when

2037
01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:50,480
Speaker 6: he's leading the dance, and when he's putting together his combinations.

2038
01:33:50,760 --> 01:33:53,760
Speaker 6: When he's backing up and he's forced to wrestle, I

2039
01:33:53,840 --> 01:33:58,439
Speaker 6: mean it's a rally back round after round he shows heart,

2040
01:33:58,760 --> 01:34:03,200
Speaker 6: but he will get tired. DDP tends to get stronger

2041
01:34:03,320 --> 01:34:05,840
Speaker 6: as the fight goes on. I think he's also the

2042
01:34:05,920 --> 01:34:08,920
Speaker 6: more versatile fighter. He has more things that he can

2043
01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:11,000
Speaker 6: rely on in his game, that he can pull out

2044
01:34:11,040 --> 01:34:13,160
Speaker 6: of his tool belt to make things a little bit

2045
01:34:13,240 --> 01:34:17,720
Speaker 6: more difficult for Sean Strickland. No question, last fight was

2046
01:34:17,840 --> 01:34:22,240
Speaker 6: really close. I thought it was pretty clear for DDP.

2047
01:34:22,360 --> 01:34:24,519
Speaker 6: If I'm being honest, I think he rallied back the

2048
01:34:24,640 --> 01:34:28,840
Speaker 6: last three rounds. Strickland is a tremendous fighter, But I

2049
01:34:29,000 --> 01:34:32,960
Speaker 6: just think DDP I was looking for a strong argument

2050
01:34:33,000 --> 01:34:35,080
Speaker 6: from Strickland in that first fight to say that he

2051
01:34:35,200 --> 01:34:39,519
Speaker 6: could do things vastly different, and I just don't see

2052
01:34:39,560 --> 01:34:42,920
Speaker 6: it at this point. So give me Dricis Duplessy here.

2053
01:34:43,800 --> 01:34:46,360
Speaker 5: I'm not really trying to promote the Anak and Florian

2054
01:34:46,439 --> 01:34:49,160
Speaker 5: rewind on UFC fight pass as much as I am

2055
01:34:49,400 --> 01:34:52,760
Speaker 5: acknowledging how exciting and exhilarating it was for Kenny and

2056
01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:55,360
Speaker 5: I bry to watch that fight back and to dive

2057
01:34:55,479 --> 01:34:59,200
Speaker 5: into the judges' scorecards. Right, I think sal Diamado scoring

2058
01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:02,639
Speaker 5: round three for Sean Strickland. When as soon as Sean

2059
01:35:02,760 --> 01:35:05,400
Speaker 5: returns to the corner, Eric nick six says to him,

2060
01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:07,960
Speaker 5: I didn't like that round at all, and Kenny and

2061
01:35:08,000 --> 01:35:11,280
Speaker 5: I I believe watching round two, in which Sean Strickland

2062
01:35:11,320 --> 01:35:13,160
Speaker 5: got a shit ton done on the feed, and then

2063
01:35:13,200 --> 01:35:15,560
Speaker 5: there's a late takedown for du pless C but not

2064
01:35:15,720 --> 01:35:19,760
Speaker 5: really an effective grappling round. So I know, DDP of

2065
01:35:19,960 --> 01:35:23,040
Speaker 5: fine Fedal felt great after ten minutes, but Kenny and

2066
01:35:23,080 --> 01:35:25,160
Speaker 5: I kind of felt like he was down two nil.

2067
01:35:25,240 --> 01:35:29,080
Speaker 5: If memory serves Kenny. The rematches upon us this weekend,

2068
01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:31,920
Speaker 5: the betting line is more robust in favor of Duke

2069
01:35:31,960 --> 01:35:35,519
Speaker 5: pleus C Brian Petrie, who wins the undisputed UFC MIT

2070
01:35:35,560 --> 01:35:37,280
Speaker 5: Away Championship here coming up this weekend.

2071
01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:41,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, great fight. Every watched that the first fight multiple times,

2072
01:35:41,160 --> 01:35:42,680
Speaker 3: and I've come to the inclusion it's gonna be a

2073
01:35:42,680 --> 01:35:46,000
Speaker 3: close fight. These guys are gonna be destined to be competitive,

2074
01:35:46,080 --> 01:35:48,400
Speaker 3: close fights with one another. The one thing I will

2075
01:35:48,439 --> 01:35:51,000
Speaker 3: say is I did think GDP one. The one thing

2076
01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:53,760
Speaker 3: I will say is DDP though Sean Strickland's an awkward guy.

2077
01:35:53,840 --> 01:35:56,920
Speaker 3: He's got that Philly shell role, the weird teep, the

2078
01:35:57,000 --> 01:35:58,960
Speaker 3: weird jab that really kind of throws you off and

2079
01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:01,360
Speaker 3: kind of breaks up your ridth. That's his style. It's

2080
01:36:01,479 --> 01:36:03,120
Speaker 3: kind of hard to get in that if you're not

2081
01:36:03,160 --> 01:36:06,000
Speaker 3: ever really seen it before. DVP has spent five rounds

2082
01:36:06,000 --> 01:36:08,240
Speaker 3: with it. So even though he started so, I feel

2083
01:36:08,280 --> 01:36:11,679
Speaker 3: like he's going to start fast this time because he feels, oh,

2084
01:36:11,840 --> 01:36:13,439
Speaker 3: here we go some graphics who.

2085
01:36:14,840 --> 01:36:17,640
Speaker 6: We fancy, we get fancy.

2086
01:36:17,680 --> 01:36:24,880
Speaker 3: Golly boy that wore on a jack. I think uh

2087
01:36:25,280 --> 01:36:27,400
Speaker 3: DDP is going to start better than he did in

2088
01:36:27,479 --> 01:36:29,120
Speaker 3: the first fight because he's got a little bit of

2089
01:36:29,200 --> 01:36:31,479
Speaker 3: read on Strickland. With a guy like Strickland who's so

2090
01:36:32,320 --> 01:36:35,360
Speaker 3: spars so much and he's locked into what he does,

2091
01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:38,599
Speaker 3: he's not going to change much. He needs to change.

2092
01:36:38,640 --> 01:36:41,519
Speaker 3: The one thing in my opinion for him to really excel,

2093
01:36:41,560 --> 01:36:44,160
Speaker 3: and when in this fight is he tends to play

2094
01:36:44,200 --> 01:36:46,800
Speaker 3: it real safe, really Chris really good technique, and at

2095
01:36:46,800 --> 01:36:48,320
Speaker 3: the end of the round he goes kind of berserk

2096
01:36:48,479 --> 01:36:49,800
Speaker 3: and he tries to steal it and he tries to

2097
01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:53,080
Speaker 3: let loosen. We need more explosive moments from Sean. He's

2098
01:36:53,120 --> 01:36:55,360
Speaker 3: got a great straight right hand, that's what he caught

2099
01:36:55,360 --> 01:36:57,640
Speaker 3: easy with. We need more explosive moments. I feel like

2100
01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:00,240
Speaker 3: with the d DDP fight first fight, especially once DP

2101
01:37:00,320 --> 01:37:03,400
Speaker 3: certain laying takedowns, he went to safe mode. He went

2102
01:37:03,479 --> 01:37:06,559
Speaker 3: to I'm gonna do what works. I'm jabbing this guy's

2103
01:37:06,600 --> 01:37:10,000
Speaker 3: head off. But is a jab worth five jabs worth

2104
01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:12,559
Speaker 3: more than a hard uppercut because DDP was laying those.

2105
01:37:13,160 --> 01:37:15,400
Speaker 3: It gets tricky when it gets the scoring like that.

2106
01:37:15,600 --> 01:37:17,400
Speaker 3: But you know, I can understand why Sean thought he won.

2107
01:37:17,479 --> 01:37:19,880
Speaker 3: He landed more strikes. I thought DDP land the more

2108
01:37:19,880 --> 01:37:21,800
Speaker 3: effective strikes. There was some blood and Sean, I know

2109
01:37:21,880 --> 01:37:23,880
Speaker 3: it might have been from a head butt. Anyway. I

2110
01:37:24,040 --> 01:37:25,840
Speaker 3: like DDP in this fight. It's so funny. A couple

2111
01:37:26,240 --> 01:37:27,599
Speaker 3: of months ago, a couple of years ago, I could

2112
01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:30,400
Speaker 3: have swore I put everything I had on Robert Whitaker

2113
01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:34,120
Speaker 3: beating DDP. And I've criticized the way he fights it.

2114
01:37:34,280 --> 01:37:37,920
Speaker 3: It's not you know, it's unique looking, but that's what

2115
01:37:38,160 --> 01:37:41,080
Speaker 3: makes him so good, is the offbeat rhythm and the

2116
01:37:41,520 --> 01:37:44,799
Speaker 3: he collides in with two feet sometimes it's very different.

2117
01:37:45,080 --> 01:37:46,920
Speaker 3: You know, we can all mock it where everybody works,

2118
01:37:46,960 --> 01:37:49,759
Speaker 3: and this guy's a dog. He's an animal. The training

2119
01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:52,160
Speaker 3: room stories about this dude, about how like he just

2120
01:37:52,200 --> 01:37:55,280
Speaker 3: won't quit is his next level. And I've really appreciated

2121
01:37:55,360 --> 01:37:57,920
Speaker 3: and grown a fan of Jeckis dou plus he and

2122
01:37:57,920 --> 01:37:59,320
Speaker 3: I think he's gonna win this way. I think it's

2123
01:37:59,320 --> 01:38:01,519
Speaker 3: gonna be close again. But I do think he's gonna win.

2124
01:38:01,600 --> 01:38:03,360
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe we're gonna go four to one if he

2125
01:38:03,400 --> 01:38:05,400
Speaker 3: has a really good night three to two, but it

2126
01:38:05,439 --> 01:38:07,559
Speaker 3: should be a clear cut victory for for derekis du

2127
01:38:07,600 --> 01:38:10,280
Speaker 3: plus season. And I don't want to get ahead of

2128
01:38:10,280 --> 01:38:12,880
Speaker 3: myself here because obviously Strickland could win. But man, I'm

2129
01:38:12,880 --> 01:38:17,439
Speaker 3: already thinking about DDP versus that Woo war Boys.

2130
01:38:17,760 --> 01:38:19,559
Speaker 5: I mean, I said my dream play for twenty twenty

2131
01:38:19,600 --> 01:38:23,160
Speaker 5: five versus Comsat Chimaya. But of course the first things first.

2132
01:38:23,800 --> 01:38:26,640
Speaker 5: But what a three striper for drinks du plus C Right,

2133
01:38:26,760 --> 01:38:31,000
Speaker 5: Robert Whitaker, Sean Strickland, Israel, Lotta Sonia and now trying

2134
01:38:31,080 --> 01:38:35,160
Speaker 5: to maybe win with a little bit more dominance against

2135
01:38:35,160 --> 01:38:39,000
Speaker 5: Seawan Strickland my second championship defense. All right, time now

Speaker 5: It's a nice job by Curtis Hoagland. Last week I

2185
01:40:33,920 --> 01:40:36,160
Speaker 5: missed his voice already. He did hit on a straight

2186
01:40:36,200 --> 01:40:38,840
Speaker 5: wager of Nossordini Mo Bob as the betting underdog. I

2187
01:40:38,880 --> 01:40:41,160
Speaker 5: haven't tally the result the first two cards of the year.

2188
01:40:41,200 --> 01:40:43,000
Speaker 5: Maybe Big Gun can do that for me on the

2189
01:40:43,080 --> 01:40:45,799
Speaker 5: back end. But John Clark, you have C three twelve

2190
01:40:46,080 --> 01:40:49,920
Speaker 5: this weekend. You have two thousand dollars to spend. How

2191
01:40:49,960 --> 01:40:51,439
Speaker 5: are you placing your bets for three twelve?

2192
01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:51,680
Speaker 6: Men?

2193
01:40:52,400 --> 01:40:52,760
Speaker 2: All right.

2194
01:40:52,840 --> 01:40:54,880
Speaker 10: Well, actually listening to you guys, I think me and

2195
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:57,760
Speaker 10: Brian my matchup a little bit here. He was given

2196
01:40:57,800 --> 01:40:59,320
Speaker 10: a lot of the same picks I was given. So

2197
01:41:00,120 --> 01:41:03,360
Speaker 10: first off, let's go with Blatto by seven hundred. I

2198
01:41:03,439 --> 01:41:04,960
Speaker 10: think he's got that dog in him. I think he's

2199
01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:07,320
Speaker 10: gonna be thrown. I think he's gonna be ready for Jimmy.

2200
01:41:08,920 --> 01:41:09,360
Speaker 9: Next one.

2201
01:41:09,479 --> 01:41:12,360
Speaker 10: I'm gonna go three hundred on Justin Tafa by Ko.

2202
01:41:12,439 --> 01:41:14,439
Speaker 10: I think he's gonna light the place on fire, you know,

2203
01:41:15,760 --> 01:41:16,280
Speaker 10: to Shah.

2204
01:41:16,400 --> 01:41:17,920
Speaker 9: He he likes to get hit.

2205
01:41:17,960 --> 01:41:20,400
Speaker 10: That's what I saw from his Contender series. I think

2206
01:41:20,400 --> 01:41:22,040
Speaker 10: you can't get hit by top I need gonna come in.

2207
01:41:22,120 --> 01:41:23,680
Speaker 10: He's gonna hit a big shot. He's gonna set the

2208
01:41:23,680 --> 01:41:24,280
Speaker 10: place crazy.

2209
01:41:25,360 --> 01:41:28,200
Speaker 9: Let's go. I'm gonna go way Leaf for four hundred.

2210
01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:30,519
Speaker 10: I think I think she's gonna show how dominant she

2211
01:41:30,560 --> 01:41:34,280
Speaker 10: actually really is in this division, how much top top

2212
01:41:34,439 --> 01:41:38,600
Speaker 10: champion she is. So four hundred, and then one of

2213
01:41:38,640 --> 01:41:40,720
Speaker 10: the problem's a little interesting pick that people may not

2214
01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:41,200
Speaker 10: agree with.

2215
01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:44,040
Speaker 9: I'm gonna go Brazil for three hundred.

2216
01:41:45,240 --> 01:41:45,439
Speaker 2: I think.

2217
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:47,920
Speaker 9: I mean when con coming off the loss.

2218
01:41:47,640 --> 01:41:50,160
Speaker 10: I think Bruna brazila good and against meat pal Maley,

2219
01:41:50,280 --> 01:41:51,600
Speaker 10: So I'm gonna rock with her.

2220
01:41:51,640 --> 01:41:52,720
Speaker 9: That's a good number by her name.

2221
01:41:53,520 --> 01:41:55,559
Speaker 5: I just love when guys come on and they give

2222
01:41:55,640 --> 01:41:59,400
Speaker 5: preliminary selections because it just shows me the extent to

2223
01:41:59,479 --> 01:42:02,000
Speaker 5: which you're invested. Throwing out a three hundred dollars straight

2224
01:42:02,040 --> 01:42:05,320
Speaker 5: wager on Bruna Brazil. We're going to keep John Clark

2225
01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:07,840
Speaker 5: here for the predictions or the bets, I should say,

2226
01:42:07,880 --> 01:42:10,160
Speaker 5: for Kent Flo and Brian Petrie. Petrie, after a week off,

2227
01:42:10,200 --> 01:42:13,080
Speaker 5: you have two thousand dollars dispended you f C three twelve.

2228
01:42:13,160 --> 01:42:15,320
Speaker 5: I know you like the way Johnny Clark attacked the board.

2229
01:42:15,600 --> 01:42:18,000
Speaker 3: How your two k? Good sir? Don't want to be

2230
01:42:18,040 --> 01:42:19,880
Speaker 3: a thorn on your side. But I thought pay per

2231
01:42:19,960 --> 01:42:23,320
Speaker 3: views were three k Johnny this year in my mistake.

2232
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:24,479
Speaker 6: But I think it was the last one.

2233
01:42:24,560 --> 01:42:24,760
Speaker 2: Maybe.

2234
01:42:24,840 --> 01:42:29,880
Speaker 5: Oh you're right. Oh I am ill prepared. Okay, my

2235
01:42:30,000 --> 01:42:33,120
Speaker 5: suitcase isn't even packed. So let's give you three K

2236
01:42:33,280 --> 01:42:35,679
Speaker 5: to spend here for patient. You laid it out that way,

2237
01:42:35,760 --> 01:42:38,240
Speaker 5: and Kenny, if you want to add an extra thousand dollars,

2238
01:42:38,280 --> 01:42:39,240
Speaker 5: feel free go ahead. BP.

2239
01:42:39,560 --> 01:42:43,000
Speaker 3: Mine's easy, John, Right, take that three thousand you gave me.

2240
01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:46,439
Speaker 3: Let's hit the prelimbs. Put it on a guy named

2241
01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:50,799
Speaker 3: Cody Steele minus two forty five, currently on DraftKings. Three thousand.

2242
01:42:50,880 --> 01:42:52,880
Speaker 3: Cody Steele. He's getting a finish, He's getting him out

2243
01:42:52,880 --> 01:42:55,640
Speaker 3: of there. I love this kid, I love everything about him.

2244
01:42:56,040 --> 01:42:59,160
Speaker 3: Cody Steele, the real deal. Three k baby.

2245
01:43:00,040 --> 01:43:03,760
Speaker 5: I've been waiting my entire life hosting this program for

2246
01:43:03,880 --> 01:43:06,320
Speaker 5: somebody to put three thousand dollars on a straight wager, right,

2247
01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:09,240
Speaker 5: Because when I get wayward in my sports book account, Kenny,

2248
01:43:09,560 --> 01:43:11,559
Speaker 5: and when I lose a lot of money and I'm

2249
01:43:11,600 --> 01:43:14,800
Speaker 5: making all these deposits and no withdrawals, it's when I

2250
01:43:14,920 --> 01:43:20,280
Speaker 5: get all cute and parlays and all this stuff. Three

2251
01:43:20,320 --> 01:43:22,799
Speaker 5: thousand dollars straight wager on Cody Steel for Brian Petrie.

2252
01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:26,080
Speaker 5: Now the floor belongs to you, Kenneth Allen Florian.

01:45:13,160 --> 01:45:14,160
Speaker 3: But we will take the audio.

2298
01:45:14,240 --> 01:45:14,360
Speaker 2: I know.

2299
01:45:14,479 --> 01:45:16,400
Speaker 5: Last time we had you from Mexico City, the video

2300
01:45:16,520 --> 01:45:18,960
Speaker 5: was a little bit wayward, so we're going audio only today.

2301
01:45:19,160 --> 01:45:21,280
Speaker 5: So I mentioned off the top of the show that

2302
01:45:21,360 --> 01:45:25,479
Speaker 5: for nos Sordini Mobov to be Izzy like that, six

2303
01:45:25,680 --> 01:45:28,120
Speaker 5: or six and a half days before the belt in

2304
01:45:28,200 --> 01:45:30,200
Speaker 5: that division is on the line, it's like a really

2305
01:45:30,280 --> 01:45:33,479
Speaker 5: big deal for him. So I know you're in preparation mode,

2306
01:45:33,560 --> 01:45:36,680
Speaker 5: but like, are you watching Imavov knockout Izzy Live this

2307
01:45:36,800 --> 01:45:37,400
Speaker 5: weekend or no?

2308
01:45:38,120 --> 01:45:38,240
Speaker 2: Oh?

2309
01:45:38,360 --> 01:45:38,559
Speaker 4: Yeah?

2310
01:45:38,640 --> 01:45:40,920
Speaker 8: And you know I you have to look at that

2311
01:45:41,040 --> 01:45:43,920
Speaker 8: as an athlete and see, okay, I look at it

2312
01:45:44,080 --> 01:45:47,040
Speaker 8: from a different perspective. I look at it as look

2313
01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:49,200
Speaker 8: at another great like Izzy, who's done what he's done

2314
01:45:49,240 --> 01:45:52,040
Speaker 8: for the sport, taking a chance at the highest level

2315
01:45:52,120 --> 01:45:54,760
Speaker 8: against one of the best that nobody knows. Nobody, I mean,

2316
01:45:54,800 --> 01:45:56,960
Speaker 8: I hate to say it, but nobody really knows I'm

2317
01:45:57,000 --> 01:45:58,000
Speaker 8: evolve until this fight.

2318
01:45:58,120 --> 01:45:59,559
Speaker 2: Now now you know I'm Avov.

2319
01:46:00,320 --> 01:46:02,880
Speaker 8: That's why you don't see guys like That's why you

2320
01:46:02,920 --> 01:46:07,400
Speaker 8: don't see guys like Canelo taking fights with Benavidez, because

2321
01:46:08,000 --> 01:46:11,600
Speaker 8: why would I take a risk with Benavitez when he

2322
01:46:11,720 --> 01:46:15,600
Speaker 8: brings nothing to the table except being a giant that

2323
01:46:15,680 --> 01:46:20,679
Speaker 8: could possibly kill him. So Imovov and Izzy, that's how.

2324
01:46:20,640 --> 01:46:21,160
Speaker 2: I look at it.

2325
01:46:21,280 --> 01:46:23,240
Speaker 8: I look at it as kudos to Izzy for taking

2326
01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:27,240
Speaker 8: the chance. I mean, this sport, people don't realize all

2327
01:46:27,360 --> 01:46:30,200
Speaker 8: the athletes in the top ten are champions. They're like,

2328
01:46:30,280 --> 01:46:31,800
Speaker 8: if you're in the top ten of the division, you're

2329
01:46:31,800 --> 01:46:35,000
Speaker 8: already a champion. So you know, for Izzy to take

2330
01:46:35,080 --> 01:46:38,519
Speaker 8: that risk and put his accolades on the line to

2331
01:46:38,640 --> 01:46:41,880
Speaker 8: go give a chance to another guy, pretty incredible stuff

2332
01:46:41,960 --> 01:46:42,080
Speaker 8: to do.

2333
01:46:42,200 --> 01:46:44,120
Speaker 5: That reminded me a little bit of the time you

2334
01:46:44,240 --> 01:46:46,719
Speaker 5: fought Casey Kenny I know the circumstances were a little

2335
01:46:46,720 --> 01:46:49,479
Speaker 5: bit different, but you and at Asania have a pretty

2336
01:46:50,120 --> 01:46:52,200
Speaker 5: special connection. I know you haven't spent a lot of

2337
01:46:52,280 --> 01:46:54,599
Speaker 5: time with him, but watching the two of you guys

2338
01:46:54,640 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 5: go back and forth in a fighter meeting recently, I

2339
01:46:56,960 --> 01:46:59,200
Speaker 5: think before UFC three oh five, if I'm not mistaken,

2340
01:46:59,200 --> 01:47:01,400
Speaker 5: I don't know when it was, but it was pretty special.

2341
01:47:01,439 --> 01:47:04,879
Speaker 5: And you talked about Izzy having this like Michael Jordan

2342
01:47:05,000 --> 01:47:08,920
Speaker 5: type aura. What was it about Izzy that you sort

2343
01:47:08,960 --> 01:47:11,559
Speaker 5: of reacted to in a magnetic way.

2344
01:47:12,800 --> 01:47:13,439
Speaker 2: You know, it's.

2345
01:47:14,920 --> 01:47:18,000
Speaker 8: Saying somebody's like Michael Jordan will trigger people. So I'm

2346
01:47:18,040 --> 01:47:20,519
Speaker 8: careful with those words because people get real weird about it.

2347
01:47:20,600 --> 01:47:22,120
Speaker 3: It's my word, my headlines.

2348
01:47:22,160 --> 01:47:25,400
Speaker 8: Sorry, but I would say energy is energy, and energy

2349
01:47:25,439 --> 01:47:29,080
Speaker 8: doesn't lie, and the guy clearly has championship style energy.

2350
01:47:29,160 --> 01:47:30,920
Speaker 8: It's hard to explain that until you get into a

2351
01:47:31,040 --> 01:47:33,760
Speaker 8: room with a great Honestly, like when you get no

2352
01:47:33,920 --> 01:47:36,680
Speaker 8: room with a kobeeb, you feel energy. When you get

2353
01:47:36,760 --> 01:47:40,680
Speaker 8: no room with John Jones, there's a different energy. I

2354
01:47:40,840 --> 01:47:43,679
Speaker 8: cannot explain it any other way except that these guys

2355
01:47:43,760 --> 01:47:49,080
Speaker 8: carry a specific type of energy that's respectable that if

2356
01:47:49,160 --> 01:47:51,639
Speaker 8: you don't respect. It's because you're not paying attention what's

2357
01:47:51,680 --> 01:47:54,400
Speaker 8: going on, Like, you're not paying attention to something that

2358
01:47:54,520 --> 01:47:57,160
Speaker 8: this person has that makes them different. And it's not

2359
01:47:57,400 --> 01:48:00,360
Speaker 8: just what they've done. What they've done is because energy

2360
01:48:00,400 --> 01:48:03,160
Speaker 8: has always been there and they've used it to create something.

2361
01:48:03,640 --> 01:48:05,320
Speaker 8: And is he kind of has that for me?

2362
01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:08,320
Speaker 6: Well, Tom, I always know you're paying attention.

2363
01:48:08,479 --> 01:48:08,639
Speaker 2: Man.

2364
01:48:09,160 --> 01:48:12,919
Speaker 6: This STRAWWAT Championship coming up, Jeangwae Lee against Tatiana Suarez.

2365
01:48:14,040 --> 01:48:15,120
Speaker 3: How do you see this one going?

2366
01:48:15,920 --> 01:48:19,600
Speaker 8: It's actually a really I think I love watching the

2367
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,960
Speaker 8: women's sports just continue to get better and better, honestly,

2368
01:48:23,160 --> 01:48:27,240
Speaker 8: Like the levels of competition are growing and Jean Way

2369
01:48:27,320 --> 01:48:30,439
Speaker 8: Lee is epic to watch always. And when you watch

2370
01:48:30,520 --> 01:48:33,200
Speaker 8: Tatiana and her Suarez like her or not because of

2371
01:48:33,240 --> 01:48:36,880
Speaker 8: her grappling, She's getting put up against such a specimen

2372
01:48:37,360 --> 01:48:42,200
Speaker 8: of striking and athleticism that that fight is going to

2373
01:48:42,400 --> 01:48:44,640
Speaker 8: be fun to watch. And the reason is because you

2374
01:48:44,720 --> 01:48:47,880
Speaker 8: got striker versus grappler. I personally have to go with

2375
01:48:48,000 --> 01:48:52,519
Speaker 8: the with the American style wrestling because I see the size,

2376
01:48:52,720 --> 01:48:53,200
Speaker 8: the length.

2377
01:48:54,280 --> 01:48:54,880
Speaker 6: She's a dog.

2378
01:48:55,240 --> 01:48:57,360
Speaker 8: I think she's a good bet being a dog in

2379
01:48:57,479 --> 01:48:59,800
Speaker 8: that matchup with the size.

2380
01:48:59,479 --> 01:49:00,280
Speaker 2: And the length.

2381
01:49:00,680 --> 01:49:03,960
Speaker 8: But you know, if you're ever gonna give anybody a

2382
01:49:04,120 --> 01:49:07,240
Speaker 8: chance in that division versus Sorez, that's why this fight

2383
01:49:07,360 --> 01:49:09,400
Speaker 8: is interesting. It's gonna be way Lee. She's pretty much

2384
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:11,360
Speaker 8: one of the only girls in this division. I think

2385
01:49:11,400 --> 01:49:13,960
Speaker 8: they can get the job done against Sorez. Other than that,

2386
01:49:14,040 --> 01:49:16,360
Speaker 8: I think Sorez is a champion already personally.

2387
01:49:17,040 --> 01:49:20,160
Speaker 6: And dom in the main event. You know, Sean Strickland

2388
01:49:20,160 --> 01:49:22,960
Speaker 6: got off to a great start in my opinion against.

2389
01:49:22,640 --> 01:49:23,479
Speaker 3: Trick as tupla C.

2390
01:49:24,400 --> 01:49:27,000
Speaker 6: What does he need to do a little bit differently

2391
01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:29,160
Speaker 6: here against DDP to to get the win.

2392
01:49:30,360 --> 01:49:32,639
Speaker 8: Well, what I love about this matchup is it doesn't

2393
01:49:32,680 --> 01:49:36,080
Speaker 8: come down to the tools necessarily. It comes down to

2394
01:49:36,160 --> 01:49:39,080
Speaker 8: the mindset. And I think DDP just has such an

2395
01:49:39,240 --> 01:49:41,880
Speaker 8: iron mind, is the best way to put it. It

2396
01:49:42,040 --> 01:49:46,479
Speaker 8: is iron And I'm not hating on Strickland in any

2397
01:49:46,760 --> 01:49:48,720
Speaker 8: sense of the matter, But I don't know if I

2398
01:49:48,720 --> 01:49:51,040
Speaker 8: would say he has an iron mind. I would say

2399
01:49:51,080 --> 01:49:53,720
Speaker 8: that his mind is there, and he's strong, and he's tough,

2400
01:49:53,800 --> 01:49:56,000
Speaker 8: and he's got a championship mindset, But I don't know

2401
01:49:56,040 --> 01:49:57,280
Speaker 8: if it's an iron mind.

2402
01:49:57,520 --> 01:49:58,599
Speaker 6: Like when you look at.

2403
01:49:58,600 --> 01:50:02,280
Speaker 8: DDP, well you cannot piss him off. He doesn't give

2404
01:50:02,320 --> 01:50:04,240
Speaker 8: away his powers. The best way I can put it,

2405
01:50:04,680 --> 01:50:09,679
Speaker 8: you can try everything in the book to shake DDP,

2406
01:50:10,400 --> 01:50:13,639
Speaker 8: and he will not afford you the luxury to be shook,

2407
01:50:14,360 --> 01:50:17,920
Speaker 8: Whereas I don't see that with Sean Strickland. Necessarily, he

2408
01:50:18,000 --> 01:50:21,679
Speaker 8: will gladly give out his power to anybody in the world.

2409
01:50:21,880 --> 01:50:23,880
Speaker 8: If you walk by him and nudge him wrong, he

2410
01:50:23,960 --> 01:50:25,600
Speaker 8: will sleep you in the middle of the street and

2411
01:50:25,720 --> 01:50:28,479
Speaker 8: give you an opportunity to sue him. That is giving

2412
01:50:28,520 --> 01:50:31,439
Speaker 8: away your power. Right even if you're a as some

2413
01:50:31,560 --> 01:50:33,640
Speaker 8: would say, a weaker person to do that, that's not

2414
01:50:33,800 --> 01:50:36,679
Speaker 8: true because the fact that that's even an option means

2415
01:50:37,360 --> 01:50:40,600
Speaker 8: is that weakness or is that a strength that you

2416
01:50:40,720 --> 01:50:44,479
Speaker 8: can't You keep your stuff in. An iron mind keeps

2417
01:50:44,520 --> 01:50:46,519
Speaker 8: that stuff in. You never give away your power, and

2418
01:50:46,920 --> 01:50:49,160
Speaker 8: DDP just hasn't seemed to do that once ever.

2419
01:50:50,320 --> 01:50:52,400
Speaker 5: Future UFC Hall of Famer Domina Cruz with us live

2420
01:50:52,439 --> 01:50:54,640
Speaker 5: here on the Anak and Florian Podcast. Now, I am

2421
01:50:54,920 --> 01:50:57,719
Speaker 5: more weak minded than Kenny and dom I have multiple

2422
01:50:57,800 --> 01:51:01,320
Speaker 5: times in my life given away my power, either by

2423
01:51:01,479 --> 01:51:06,120
Speaker 5: showing my temper or not managing my anger properly. Certainly,

2424
01:51:06,200 --> 01:51:08,639
Speaker 5: you don't see this on television, but it's an interesting

2425
01:51:08,680 --> 01:51:10,880
Speaker 5: point on because it's something that I'm constantly working on,

2426
01:51:11,000 --> 01:51:12,559
Speaker 5: and I do think it should be front of mind

2427
01:51:12,800 --> 01:51:16,080
Speaker 5: when you're assessing drinkis DUPLESSI dom you know, Tatiana Suaz

2428
01:51:16,160 --> 01:51:19,880
Speaker 5: is no longer the betting underdog, and it's because you know,

2429
01:51:20,439 --> 01:51:24,040
Speaker 5: Domina Cruz chal Son and Kenny Florian ray Longo. Every

2430
01:51:24,160 --> 01:51:27,559
Speaker 5: single person that I have probed is picking the American

2431
01:51:27,600 --> 01:51:30,840
Speaker 5: wrestler Tatiana Suarez. Now, maybe you're a little bit biased

2432
01:51:30,880 --> 01:51:32,920
Speaker 5: because you are an American wrestler, but at some point

2433
01:51:32,960 --> 01:51:36,160
Speaker 5: should Jeonghwae Lee's experience count for something? I mean, maybe

2434
01:51:36,240 --> 01:51:40,400
Speaker 5: Tatiana Suarz is just that good and her relationship with

2435
01:51:40,520 --> 01:51:43,519
Speaker 5: Patchy mix in theory has been a huge asset to her.

2436
01:51:43,640 --> 01:51:45,640
Speaker 5: But dude, I mean, Joan waey Lee is going to

2437
01:51:45,680 --> 01:51:48,479
Speaker 5: be the underdog and she looks to me like the

2438
01:51:48,520 --> 01:51:50,280
Speaker 5: greatest straweight of all time in her prime.

2439
01:51:50,920 --> 01:51:54,519
Speaker 8: Well, thank god for the women's division. Like, let's be honest,

2440
01:51:54,960 --> 01:51:57,400
Speaker 8: making her an underdog is why people are going to watch?

2441
01:51:57,880 --> 01:52:00,280
Speaker 6: Like what her an under dog?

2442
01:52:01,000 --> 01:52:01,200
Speaker 4: How?

2443
01:52:02,200 --> 01:52:05,080
Speaker 8: You're right, I can't really make sense of it either,

2444
01:52:05,479 --> 01:52:08,120
Speaker 8: And that's why this the women's division is. That's how

2445
01:52:08,200 --> 01:52:11,040
Speaker 8: you know it's growing. You don't see this often. You

2446
01:52:11,240 --> 01:52:15,920
Speaker 8: usually see a watchout, no chance, no chance against tatianas Horez.

2447
01:52:16,120 --> 01:52:19,719
Speaker 8: There is a huge chance for Waylee to win this battle.

2448
01:52:20,400 --> 01:52:24,200
Speaker 8: It's just I think that the American wrest is gonna

2449
01:52:24,200 --> 01:52:25,880
Speaker 8: pull it off this time. You know, I could be wrong.

2450
01:52:25,920 --> 01:52:27,800
Speaker 8: I'm not the best gambler in the world, that's for sure.

2451
01:52:27,840 --> 01:52:30,280
Speaker 8: I don't really get but unless it's my own life

2452
01:52:30,320 --> 01:52:32,960
Speaker 8: that I'm gambling, But with these two, you know that's

2453
01:52:33,479 --> 01:52:35,439
Speaker 8: I think that's a great match, and that's why we're

2454
01:52:35,760 --> 01:52:37,280
Speaker 8: I mean, you make a good point. I don't know

2455
01:52:37,400 --> 01:52:40,680
Speaker 8: how I could necessarily bet against Waaley, but something in

2456
01:52:40,760 --> 01:52:41,719
Speaker 8: my gut says, too.

2457
01:52:42,040 --> 01:52:43,320
Speaker 3: All right before I let you go.

2458
01:52:43,600 --> 01:52:48,160
Speaker 5: Sometimes in MMA we have champions that the fellow contenders

2459
01:52:48,240 --> 01:52:51,760
Speaker 5: think are hugely beatables. Excuse me, hugely beatable, right, And

2460
01:52:51,840 --> 01:52:54,879
Speaker 5: I've said this before. Sean O'Malley is an absolute sniper.

2461
01:52:54,920 --> 01:52:57,760
Speaker 5: There's no denying the striking acumen, the gifts and everything else.

2462
01:52:57,800 --> 01:52:59,400
Speaker 5: But when he was the one hundred and thirty five

2463
01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:02,120
Speaker 5: pound champion, and a lot of his contemporaries like yourself,

2464
01:53:02,160 --> 01:53:04,639
Speaker 5: were salivating at the opportunity to get a title shot

2465
01:53:04,680 --> 01:53:07,360
Speaker 5: against him. I think a lot of people, maybe before

2466
01:53:07,400 --> 01:53:09,360
Speaker 5: the Umar and r Maga Mattov fight, felt like Marob

2467
01:53:09,439 --> 01:53:11,200
Speaker 5: duwallish Willy was a beatable champion. I think a lot

2468
01:53:11,240 --> 01:53:14,320
Speaker 5: of people felt like Sean Strickland or Drinks Duplessi or

2469
01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:17,160
Speaker 5: beatable champions. A lot of people think below Muhammad is

2470
01:53:17,200 --> 01:53:19,639
Speaker 5: the champion that they would be. So I would ask

2471
01:53:19,680 --> 01:53:22,479
Speaker 5: you about the champion in your division, Marob dwallish Willy.

2472
01:53:22,800 --> 01:53:26,280
Speaker 5: If you're preparing for that guy that seems to be

2473
01:53:26,880 --> 01:53:30,760
Speaker 5: half man, half machine, what is the biggest key to

2474
01:53:30,880 --> 01:53:32,720
Speaker 5: trying to beat a guy that, for me, has no

2475
01:53:32,880 --> 01:53:35,040
Speaker 5: point of comparison in modern day MMA.

2476
01:53:35,680 --> 01:53:38,120
Speaker 8: Oh, no question. I have the answer to this, and

2477
01:53:38,240 --> 01:53:41,559
Speaker 8: it's footwork. If you can if you can move your feet,

2478
01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:43,360
Speaker 8: you can move your body. And if you're not there,

2479
01:53:43,400 --> 01:53:45,880
Speaker 8: it doesn't matter how strong, it doesn't matter how good

2480
01:53:45,920 --> 01:53:48,400
Speaker 8: your cardio is, none of that matters. If you can't

2481
01:53:48,400 --> 01:53:52,280
Speaker 8: be touched, it becomes a wash. And now you're one

2482
01:53:52,320 --> 01:53:55,040
Speaker 8: person's getting hit out of the two, and that's the

2483
01:53:55,120 --> 01:53:57,439
Speaker 8: person that has the footwork gets to hit the person

2484
01:53:57,520 --> 01:54:00,000
Speaker 8: that doesn't. Because the person who's able to who stands

2485
01:54:00,160 --> 01:54:03,400
Speaker 8: in front and doesn't have that that gap filled is

2486
01:54:03,520 --> 01:54:06,280
Speaker 8: there to be hit Now, it doesn't mean that there's

2487
01:54:06,439 --> 01:54:10,000
Speaker 8: obviously always an opening in NMA fighting, and that's why

2488
01:54:10,040 --> 01:54:13,120
Speaker 8: we all watch it. Nothing's I guarantee, right, But I

2489
01:54:13,320 --> 01:54:17,680
Speaker 8: see footwork being a key fundamental in beating somebody like

2490
01:54:17,800 --> 01:54:22,160
Speaker 8: mer abdallas Villi because he fights in straight lines. Everything

2491
01:54:22,240 --> 01:54:26,320
Speaker 8: he does is to set up or take a shot,

2492
01:54:26,840 --> 01:54:31,880
Speaker 8: and his shot attempts set up his strike attempts, but

2493
01:54:32,080 --> 01:54:34,880
Speaker 8: all of them are on the same set of train tracks.

2494
01:54:35,200 --> 01:54:37,000
Speaker 8: What happens if you put a bunch of loops in

2495
01:54:37,080 --> 01:54:41,360
Speaker 8: a train track, what happens to the train becomes useless? Right,

2496
01:54:41,680 --> 01:54:44,760
Speaker 8: So this is the thing that certain people in the

2497
01:54:44,800 --> 01:54:47,680
Speaker 8: division can tap into, I believe, and you know, never

2498
01:54:47,800 --> 01:54:52,080
Speaker 8: forget nobody had run a under a four minute mile

2499
01:54:52,200 --> 01:54:54,280
Speaker 8: until somebody ran under a four minute mile and then

2500
01:54:54,400 --> 01:54:57,160
Speaker 8: like eleven people followed it the next day, Right, So

2501
01:54:58,040 --> 01:55:03,080
Speaker 8: you want you unhooked that that leak. People generally jump

2502
01:55:03,160 --> 01:55:06,320
Speaker 8: on board. And that's why champions who lose the title

2503
01:55:06,360 --> 01:55:08,520
Speaker 8: and can come back and win it are so revered,

2504
01:55:08,760 --> 01:55:11,680
Speaker 8: especially two three times like Randy Couture, because they've already

2505
01:55:12,040 --> 01:55:15,360
Speaker 8: had to they've already been adjusted to somewhere, and then

2506
01:55:15,360 --> 01:55:18,640
Speaker 8: they've come back and readjusted the adjustment, lost it again,

2507
01:55:18,880 --> 01:55:20,760
Speaker 8: and then readjusted the adjustment again.

2508
01:55:21,080 --> 01:55:22,560
Speaker 2: That is so difficult to do.

2509
01:55:23,000 --> 01:55:26,000
Speaker 8: And that's why having a loss is so much more

2510
01:55:26,320 --> 01:55:29,280
Speaker 8: respectable to me as a champion than an undefeated champion,

2511
01:55:29,360 --> 01:55:32,040
Speaker 8: because are they undefeated or they just stopped too early?

2512
01:55:32,520 --> 01:55:35,640
Speaker 8: Because that person needs to challenge themselves till they get

2513
01:55:35,720 --> 01:55:38,680
Speaker 8: beat and then that sets the new bar for them

2514
01:55:39,120 --> 01:55:41,320
Speaker 8: to see how they can set the new bar for themselves.

2515
01:55:41,960 --> 01:55:45,840
Speaker 8: And Merob Davishvilli has shown he has that in his armor.

2516
01:55:46,240 --> 01:55:48,760
Speaker 8: He's lost enough times on the way up to this

2517
01:55:48,920 --> 01:55:52,200
Speaker 8: title that now that he's here, he's a proven champion.

2518
01:55:52,280 --> 01:55:56,280
Speaker 8: As I've said, he's already faced those adversaries, lost, had

2519
01:55:56,320 --> 01:55:58,680
Speaker 8: to reget back on the track, and now with all

2520
01:55:58,760 --> 01:56:01,240
Speaker 8: those things and all those tools he's learned, he's such

2521
01:56:01,360 --> 01:56:04,160
Speaker 8: a difficult guy to beat because he's already lost.

2522
01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:07,720
Speaker 3: It's wild right right started zero and two in the UFC.

2523
01:56:08,440 --> 01:56:10,200
Speaker 5: We'll see if Umarn and Mago Madoff can make some

2524
01:56:10,240 --> 01:56:14,160
Speaker 5: adjustments if in fact he gets that rematch. The dominator

2525
01:56:14,280 --> 01:56:16,720
Speaker 5: always bringing the analysis, my man and very cool to

2526
01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:21,520
Speaker 5: see Marob acknowledge you. Immediately upon being probed about potentially

2527
01:56:21,560 --> 01:56:23,600
Speaker 5: being the greatest band weight of all time, he injects

2528
01:56:23,640 --> 01:56:26,040
Speaker 5: the name Domina Cruz. I know you're not, you know,

2529
01:56:26,360 --> 01:56:29,280
Speaker 5: living and dying with every appreciative or bad word said

2530
01:56:29,320 --> 01:56:31,560
Speaker 5: about you, But I oftentimes will say, the most basic

2531
01:56:31,640 --> 01:56:33,360
Speaker 5: human need is to feel appreciated. So I would think

2532
01:56:33,400 --> 01:56:36,120
Speaker 5: for you, feeling that appreciation from the current champion and

2533
01:56:36,160 --> 01:56:38,040
Speaker 5: your contemporaries felt some kind of good.

2534
01:56:38,440 --> 01:56:41,720
Speaker 8: Oh I'm definitely human, So that definitely felt nice to

2535
01:56:41,800 --> 01:56:45,160
Speaker 8: hear from a guy like Merob. It's it's awesome because

2536
01:56:45,200 --> 01:56:47,920
Speaker 8: of this. Like I said, I respect his journey to

2537
01:56:48,080 --> 01:56:51,600
Speaker 8: the title so much. He basically cleared out the division

2538
01:56:51,640 --> 01:56:54,440
Speaker 8: before he got there, and then how the division's almost clear.

2539
01:56:54,520 --> 01:56:56,720
Speaker 8: It's like, okay, well, now what are you going to

2540
01:56:56,800 --> 01:56:59,640
Speaker 8: do to me? Because I already had to beat everybody

2541
01:56:59,680 --> 01:57:01,520
Speaker 8: in the case and sink just to get a shot

2542
01:57:01,640 --> 01:57:02,200
Speaker 8: at the title.

2543
01:57:02,600 --> 01:57:03,040
Speaker 6: So now what?

2544
01:57:03,200 --> 01:57:06,600
Speaker 8: And I've felt that similar feeling before and so I

2545
01:57:06,680 --> 01:57:09,160
Speaker 8: can have nothing but respect for where he's at right now.

2546
01:57:09,200 --> 01:57:10,880
Speaker 8: And yeah, of course it means a lot. And I

2547
01:57:10,920 --> 01:57:13,880
Speaker 8: think people who you know, choose the greatest of all

2548
01:57:13,960 --> 01:57:16,400
Speaker 8: time are always going to choose from a certain set

2549
01:57:16,560 --> 01:57:19,640
Speaker 8: of interpretations in their own minds. Right, Like I said,

2550
01:57:19,680 --> 01:57:22,960
Speaker 8: we went back to Jordan Lebron, James Kobe, Kobe Bryant.

2551
01:57:23,280 --> 01:57:25,160
Speaker 8: You cannot argue that all three of them aren't the

2552
01:57:25,200 --> 01:57:26,960
Speaker 8: greatest of all time in some sort of way or

2553
01:57:27,000 --> 01:57:27,640
Speaker 8: shape or form.

2554
01:57:28,520 --> 01:57:29,560
Speaker 2: And that's okay.

2555
01:57:29,840 --> 01:57:31,840
Speaker 8: But everybody has their reasons and that's what makes it

2556
01:57:31,880 --> 01:57:34,160
Speaker 8: fun to watch the sport is that nobody has the

2557
01:57:34,280 --> 01:57:35,400
Speaker 8: exact same mindset.

2558
01:57:36,040 --> 01:57:36,640
Speaker 6: I love it well.

2559
01:57:36,680 --> 01:57:38,960
Speaker 5: I know you'll be watching live UFC three twelve and

2560
01:57:39,160 --> 01:57:42,000
Speaker 5: we will harken back to your twenty sixteen win over

2561
01:57:42,080 --> 01:57:44,360
Speaker 5: TJ Dillashop. By the way, on the UFC three twelve

2562
01:57:44,680 --> 01:57:46,600
Speaker 5: Way and show. That's a spoiler alert, so if you

2563
01:57:46,640 --> 01:57:48,120
Speaker 5: want to tune in, I'll be the novel.

2564
01:57:48,000 --> 01:57:49,240
Speaker 6: Nobody said I could do.

2565
01:57:49,320 --> 01:57:51,600
Speaker 8: I'm gonna go ahead and take you back, Okay, back

2566
01:57:51,640 --> 01:57:56,160
Speaker 8: in this time that was impossible. I was too old,

2567
01:57:56,320 --> 01:58:00,800
Speaker 8: he was the new I was broken. Media is ring,

2568
01:58:00,920 --> 01:58:04,880
Speaker 8: rest is too much. Media said that it couldn't be done.

2569
01:58:04,960 --> 01:58:07,000
Speaker 8: No no athlete has gone through this, and many andrews

2570
01:58:07,040 --> 01:58:08,680
Speaker 8: and come back. These are all the things that were

2571
01:58:08,720 --> 01:58:11,120
Speaker 8: told to me. So I'm gonna just remind the world

2572
01:58:13,360 --> 01:58:18,640
Speaker 8: for people forget about those headlines. They're not here anymore.

2573
01:58:19,040 --> 01:58:21,600
Speaker 8: But yet not a chance in hell was I given

2574
01:58:21,960 --> 01:58:25,680
Speaker 8: and it got the job done. So again, go get

2575
01:58:25,800 --> 01:58:28,360
Speaker 8: go make it happen, people, go make it happ don't listen.

2576
01:58:28,480 --> 01:58:30,640
Speaker 5: My man, Dominica Cruz, wish you all the best later

2577
01:58:30,720 --> 01:58:32,560
Speaker 5: this month. Appreciate the time, brother, We'll talk to you soon.
