1
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: It is Monday, the twentieth of January twenty twenty. I

2
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,680

Speaker 1: today UFC two forty six related and beyond housekeeping notes,

Speaker 1: we go? Don't you go dieing on?

22
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 2: I got my cup condom.

23
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:09,559
Speaker 1: I'm ready, I'm ready go topic number one. This one

24
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 1: is very easy. Connor McGregor wins at UFC two forty

25
00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: six only forty seconds into the very first round, stopping

26
00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: Donald Soerrony with strikes. Referee Herb Dean was the one

27
00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,200
Speaker 1: who intervened Brian the question, I think that we need

28
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: to start today and we can go a lot of

29
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 1: different directions. I'll go first on this one. What would

30
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: be the biggest takeaway from the win of Connor McGregor,

31
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 1: And I will say this, We all said he had

32
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: to win going into the weekend. When he does, but

33
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:42,120
Speaker 1: there was a question about what is actually really achievable

34
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 1: with the win if you get a split decision, and

35
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: what can you really say about that if you dominated

36
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 1: but it goes the distance? Another set of narratives emerge.

37
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: But what about the one where you beat Donald Serony

38
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: faster than anyone's ever beaten him? What if you do

39
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:59,120
Speaker 1: it and he doesn't even land a glove on you.

40
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: I still I do think we need to have some

41
00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: managed expectations. We didn't see his gas tank checked, we

42
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: didn't see him go into a third round to see

43
00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:08,640
Speaker 1: if his game developed so in any kind of new way.

44
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,440
Speaker 1: In fact, I did it for dissected. What we saw

45
00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:13,359
Speaker 1: on Saturday was just kind of for the most part

46
00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: Shulder strike's notwithstanding kind of classic Connor McGregor. But here's

47
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,120
Speaker 1: what I will say is my biggest takeaway in terms

48
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: of what was achievable and in terms of what the

49
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 1: goal was, get a win, reinspire the fan, braise base,

50
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:31,280
Speaker 1: get some good pr because he needed it, and show

51
00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,960
Speaker 1: that even in a tight window, that forty second window,

52
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 1: you are a force to be reckoned with. Again, I

53
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: think he succeeded wildly. I think on all of those terms,

54
00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 1: he succeeded. Now, did I see anything in there that

55
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 1: told me he can beat Jorge Masbadol? It was forty seconds.

56
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,160
Speaker 1: I just didn't see a lot. Did I see anything

57
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 1: in there Brian Campbell that told me he could beat

58
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: a beabnmer Gaminoff? It was forty seconds. There was no wrestling.

59
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 1: I just can't make that kind of determination. Did I see, though,

60
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: a guy who reignited passions in the fan base, who

61
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,680
Speaker 1: got good press, who got an important win in his

62
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,679
Speaker 1: third weight class, who set himself up in the catbird

63
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:13,160
Speaker 1: seat to reinspire imagination and get people to gough the

64
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: turnstile at the box office. He did all of it,

65
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:19,840
Speaker 1: and then some everything that was possible he did. That

66
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:20,960
Speaker 1: is my biggest takeaway.

67
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:24,000
Speaker 2: Absolutely, look what this was on paper. In an era

68
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 2: in UFC with great match making where you don't make

69
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,280
Speaker 2: get well fights, this was a celebrity puffed up get

70
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 2: well fight. Obviously there was potential for him to lose it.

71
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:34,079
Speaker 2: There was some certain level of intrigue of Cowboy being

72
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: a live dog and all that. But UFC's goal with

73
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 2: this fight was to revive Connor McGregor's pay per view brand,

74
00:03:39,960 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 2: and from that standpoint, this was an absolute grand slam.

75
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 2: You want to talk about giving at least the illusion.

76
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 2: You're right, in forty seconds, we can't answer any of

77
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: those questions. Is the legitimate welterwait, gas tank wrestling, all

78
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 2: that stuff. But yet in forty seconds a complete return,

79
00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 2: putting all the air back into the balloon of this

80
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: guy being a dominant finisher. And I think at the

81
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 2: end of the day, even though Connor can talk, and

82
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: that's a big part of who he is, the fact

83
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 2: that he finishes elite level opponents, usually after predicting and

84
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,760
Speaker 2: claiming it is the number one calling card of why

85
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 2: people keep coming and why he's such a great pay

86
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,120
Speaker 2: per view band and brand, and to return to that

87
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,320
Speaker 2: and to remove you know, we talked about the crossroads

88
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: where we're at here. If Connor didn't win this fight,

89
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 2: if this was any kind of loss, it was disastrous.

90
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,359
Speaker 2: He would then become the Hey, let's fight Nate and

91
00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:28,880
Speaker 2: let's find an exit strategy. What he did in those

92
00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 2: forty seconds was completely remove that. That's off the table.

93
00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:35,360
Speaker 2: Whether he beats Masvidal or or Habibe or Gaygee or

94
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 2: anybody else next or not, that's off the table. He's

95
00:04:38,080 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 2: not a train wreck. He is somebody who seems like

96
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 2: excess took a toll on him over the last couple

97
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,960
Speaker 2: of years, but he regrouped and put that back. And

98
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:47,839
Speaker 2: then you want to talk about from a marketing point

99
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,039
Speaker 2: of view, what this means for the rest of twenty

100
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 2: twenty forty seconds is forty seconds people are going to go, oh, man,

101
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: I didn't really learn what I came to learn. Oh,

102
00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 2: it was entertaining, but I wanted more. I wanted two

103
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:02,159
Speaker 2: rounds of action. From a business perspective, that's the best

104
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,599
Speaker 2: way that fight could have finished because those same questions

105
00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:07,479
Speaker 2: we had coming in is he all these things? We

106
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 2: now push that ahead to the next fight, and that

107
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 2: level of intrigue will keep you coming back, I think

108
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 2: at a higher pace than had he spent two rounds

109
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 2: in there decimating him. It's almost like there's still a

110
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,560
Speaker 2: little bit of that illusion left and we come for

111
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 2: McGregor to see the show. But because he's so polarizing,

112
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 2: there's always going to be that cut of the population

113
00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 2: who comes for the chance to say I told you so,

114
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,559
Speaker 2: he's not that guy. And when you win in forty seconds,

115
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 2: you still leave some of those questions out there. Genius

116
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: for marketing the way it played out. I don't think

117
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 2: you have seen Dana White could be doing anything but

118
00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 2: bathing in dollars after this I've been.

119
00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:40,400
Speaker 1: I'm sure you've seen it. I posted a piece of

120
00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: hate mail I got because I apparently refuse to call

121
00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: it a fixed fight. You see a lot of the

122
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:48,560
Speaker 1: fixed fight birds coming out here. I'm not suggesting that

123
00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: they're in number enough that anyone should be concerned, nor

124
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,600
Speaker 1: am I suggesting there's any real merit to the position.

125
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,719
Speaker 1: I don't think that there is, But that's not the point.

126
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 1: The point being is Connor was so dominant inside that

127
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 1: forty second win, a small window, but still he was

128
00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 1: so dominant people, particularly his critics, maybe more than just

129
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:09,080
Speaker 1: his critics, his haters, the people who just can't stand

130
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: the guy. It brought them out into full force. He

131
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 1: is a magnetism, or I should say a magnet rather

132
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:21,920
Speaker 1: for controversy in all forms, frivolous, fun, serious at everything

133
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: in between. And you're going to carry as you noted

134
00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 1: that part forward. Plus we were sort of worrying about

135
00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:31,600
Speaker 1: this prefight. Is he going to inspire us to reconsider

136
00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 1: his heights or about to discover what his floor is?

137
00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,600
Speaker 1: In part to your point, the question is still kind

138
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:38,680
Speaker 1: of valid. We don't really know, but I would say

139
00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 1: people might be starting to tilt towards we might be

140
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: rediscovering a little bit more of a renewed possibility here,

141
00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: a renewed heights.

142
00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,880
Speaker 2: He sort of pleased everyone with the result.

143
00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,240
Speaker 1: Ultimately he pissed off who were you supposed to piss off?

144
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 1: And you pleased everyone who you were supposed to please.

145
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 1: And that is some serious moments.

146
00:06:55,080 --> 00:06:57,559
Speaker 2: And on top of it, one of Connor's biggest critics

147
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,360
Speaker 2: during fight week was actually Dana White who all this

148
00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:02,720
Speaker 2: talk about potentially Orge next or potentially all these other

149
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: things which we can get into. Dana was still steadfast

150
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 2: through Thursday, I'm sorry, through Friday. After the way, and

151
00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 2: when he did a little mini scrum with media backstage

152
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:12,840
Speaker 2: and he told us, I don't think Connor ship flight

153
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 2: any of these one seventies, even Cowboy is too big

154
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:18,080
Speaker 2: for him. That's the boss saying that. On Friday, when

155
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:20,320
Speaker 2: Connor went out and decimated Cowboy at one seven, Yes,

156
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,680
Speaker 2: they're blown up lightweights. All that is actually true. But

157
00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 2: when your proof and your eyes show you a full

158
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy pounds man looking that crisp, that imaginative,

159
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 2: that explosive, and that short window, even Dana afterwards said

160
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 2: I'm no longer going to make those comments. You can

161
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 2: find anybody wants like that's that's impressive.

162
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 1: So Serni went the distance with Robbie Laller. Now Connor

163
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 1: wanted to claim that he has the wins in three

164
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,360
Speaker 1: different weight classes. He was the first person to do it. Well,

165
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:44,600
Speaker 1: he's the first person to do it at featherweight, lightweight,

166
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 1: and welcome.

167
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,880
Speaker 2: Sell me knockouts at all three stoppage losses.

168
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,080
Speaker 1: But even then, Jared Cannoneer has it at heavyweight, light heavyweight,

169
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 1: in middleweight, so he's actually not the first, but he

170
00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 1: might be the first in those divisions, and that's still impressivedent.

171
00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: It's own right. The only reason I bring it up

172
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:58,880
Speaker 1: is I had some concerns about his power, not that

173
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: I thought it was phony, but you know, Nate dis

174
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: does have a good chin, but it's just one opponent

175
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: two fights would really know. And here's what I'll say.

176
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,119
Speaker 1: Robbie Lawler couldn't put Don Seroney away, and their fights

177
00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:11,960
Speaker 1: started identically with smashing into the clunch MEI I remember

178
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,160
Speaker 1: that Robby Lawler kind of bombed on him early, and

179
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: then that one Saronnie hung on at least to lose

180
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,559
Speaker 1: a decision, but he didn't get stopped. He just didn't

181
00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 1: have that opportunity here against a cowboy or excuse me,

182
00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 1: against Connor all this time later. But my point about

183
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:26,720
Speaker 1: the power, what's kind of interesting about it is I

184
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 1: don't know exactly if he's as big a power puncher

185
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: at one seventy as at one fifty five, because I

186
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 1: want to see him fight somebody who yes, cowboy went

187
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,439
Speaker 1: from one fifty five to one to seventy and had

188
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,559
Speaker 1: ten fights at one seventy and beat good guys. But

189
00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,400
Speaker 1: to really see, to really see, I need to see

190
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 1: somebody who can't make one fifty five, like at tyberin Woodley.

191
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 1: But here's what I would say, No matter what, he

192
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 1: pretty clearly has enough firepower for one seventy. Yeah, he

193
00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:50,319
Speaker 1: clearly can hold his own there one way or.

194
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,720
Speaker 2: The other when he's dialed in, which was the theme

195
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 2: of this week, right from that first press conference on Wednesday,

196
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:56,800
Speaker 2: where we're like, okay, well Connor, are we going to

197
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 2: get rattle Connor, aggressive, trash on Connor. No, we got gentlemen, humorous, jovial,

198
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 2: humble Connor. And I know some of the debate all

199
00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,360
Speaker 2: week was is that the actual guy or is this

200
00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:09,800
Speaker 2: just a very smart PR campaign to sort of go

201
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 2: up against the negative headlines of sexual assault accusations all

202
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 2: of that. And it's not like we didn't see what

203
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,800
Speaker 2: happened at the press conference when they shut Morgan Campbell down.

204
00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 2: That was, you know, kick to the face of journalism,

205
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 2: by the way, But that notwithstanding, you know what, the

206
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 2: biggest accomplishment I think Connor had this week even better

207
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,440
Speaker 2: than reviving himself as a legitimate fighter, improving a fight

208
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: at one seventy. This was a masterful work of pr

209
00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: I mean in absolutely masterful work. And you know it's

210
00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 2: true when you know your own friends in the business,

211
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,160
Speaker 2: your own media friends, your own friends who work for UFC,

212
00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:40,400
Speaker 2: who you know are non Connor guys who are like, man,

213
00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 2: that that pos you know off the record to you

214
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,320
Speaker 2: are going, hey, man, if Connor acts like he just

215
00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 2: did the last couple of days publicly, more often, I

216
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 2: love that guy. I love remember that guy. I loved

217
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: that guy.

218
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: So, I mean, I'm not a guy who hates Connor McGregor,

219
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 1: but I didn't. I didn't love the way he would

220
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 1: treat other opponents Aldo and Alvarez. I gotta tell you

221
00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,320
Speaker 1: never liked Connor McGregor more than I liked him this.

222
00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 2: Yeay, And I respect Connor. After the fight, when he

223
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,640
Speaker 2: was asked about that the press conference, what would happen

224
00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 2: when you if you fight if and when you fight

225
00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,120
Speaker 2: Habibi again? And he was like, honestly, He's like, look,

226
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 2: this is who I am. You may smart, you know,

227
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 2: you may see me sparked again. But whether this was

228
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:14,160
Speaker 2: one hundred percent authentic, whether this was a man who

229
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,440
Speaker 2: in this wild three years since he was last on

230
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 2: top of the mountain in UFC, has really gone through

231
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:23,960
Speaker 2: enough ish a lot of it self inflicted. I can

232
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 2: believe that he's partially enough of a change man to

233
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 2: make that feel real to me what he's saying. But

234
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: even if it's bullshit, that's a masterful pr move because

235
00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,200
Speaker 2: he kind of went through there and revived himself in

236
00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:42,080
Speaker 2: a way that the best historical combat sports superstars, the

237
00:10:42,080 --> 00:10:44,920
Speaker 2: ones that you cannot get enough of. I'm talking about

238
00:10:44,920 --> 00:10:48,360
Speaker 2: Ali Tyson Mayweather, they were able to constantly float between

239
00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 2: being a hero and villain and the public eye and

240
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 2: just kind of just changed genres constantly, And that gray

241
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,280
Speaker 2: area is really where the interest level is because it

242
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 2: makes you care about them. If you're predetermined to hate them,

243
00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,359
Speaker 2: you have plenty of reason to keep. If you're predetermined

244
00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:03,560
Speaker 2: to worship and idle them, then they give you plenty

245
00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,079
Speaker 2: of reason. But in between that great area, they're showing

246
00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,720
Speaker 2: so much humanity that it's so relatable that Connor is

247
00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 2: obviously the star of this era, of this lifetime just

248
00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:14,880
Speaker 2: from the standpoint of ticket sales, but I think from

249
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 2: the standpoint of capturing our imagination, and this week was

250
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,800
Speaker 2: that new chapter. This is like David Bowie going, hey,

251
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 2: I did a funk album in a rock album, let's

252
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 2: try a country one. This was Connor sort of going, hey,

253
00:11:24,240 --> 00:11:26,840
Speaker 2: let's try to be a you know, America's sweetheart. And

254
00:11:26,840 --> 00:11:27,200
Speaker 2: it worked.

255
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:28,839
Speaker 1: I'll tell you this last thing about it was, I

256
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,000
Speaker 1: would say, is a lot of folks were worried because

257
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:33,280
Speaker 1: if you looked at the way he was before, he'd

258
00:11:33,280 --> 00:11:36,720
Speaker 1: have this intensity and this animosity and this sort of

259
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,520
Speaker 1: verve that would carry right through into the fight. It

260
00:11:39,559 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: was all kind of one note by design, and we thought, well,

261
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: if he's going to be one note and he's calm,

262
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: does that mean he's going to be a different fighter.

263
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: Is he going to be too calm or is he

264
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,719
Speaker 1: going to trade off something for maturity in terms of

265
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,120
Speaker 1: being a fighter. Well it turns out not at all.

266
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: He was as ferocious as normal when the fight began.

267
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: Look had cleaned up mechanics again, a lot of classic

268
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:00,719
Speaker 1: Connor weapons, a couple of new storing in there for

269
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,560
Speaker 1: good measure. But I will tell you to me, it's like, look,

270
00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:05,400
Speaker 1: well he stay out of trouble. Your guess is as

271
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:07,800
Speaker 1: good as mine. I have no idea, but I would

272
00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: actually say, if you're a Connor McGregor fan, maybe you

273
00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:12,679
Speaker 1: like the old days of antagonism. And I still kind

274
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 1: of think if he gets face to face with Obib,

275
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: you're gonna get a whole lot of that back.

276
00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 2: Any But well, if Cowboy didn't throw anything at him,

277
00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:19,520
Speaker 2: we have to remember that right in the pre fight,

278
00:12:19,559 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 2: Cowboy did nothing but be like, I respect that.

279
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:23,880
Speaker 1: I assiduously avoided it. I don't think Jorge is gonna

280
00:12:23,880 --> 00:12:25,439
Speaker 1: do that, and we know Kobeb's not gonna do that,

281
00:12:25,440 --> 00:12:27,080
Speaker 1: at least in terms of what he represents. But here's

282
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 1: my point. If you're a Connor fan, you should be

283
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 1: heartened because I actually think, rather than a change being

284
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:37,360
Speaker 1: a distraction, if he is to achieve new heights Brian Campbell,

285
00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,360
Speaker 1: I don't think he can do it without the change.

286
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:40,839
Speaker 1: I don't think he can do it without being a

287
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 1: little bit older, a little bit wiser, a little bit

288
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:46,560
Speaker 1: more of pick my battle smartly, stay focused in training,

289
00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:47,800
Speaker 1: and we'll see if he says he's gonna go back

290
00:12:47,800 --> 00:12:49,679
Speaker 1: to training after one or two days off, we'll see

291
00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 1: if that actually happens. I tend to think that it will.

292
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 1: But to me, I likened it when my post fight

293
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:58,200
Speaker 1: show to Tiger Woods changing his golf swing and that's

294
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,359
Speaker 1: nerve wracking. Or how about even the.

295
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 2: Or his women habits.

296
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,960
Speaker 1: Yeah that too, but how about the Pelicans teaching Zion

297
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 1: Williams and how to run again? Yes, I mean these

298
00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 1: are very You think, wow, that's really scary. What if

299
00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,720
Speaker 1: you don't get that right? But it turns out that

300
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,760
Speaker 1: those kinds of changes under the right conditions, under the

301
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,880
Speaker 1: right sort of leadership or in that particular case, medical supervision.

302
00:13:15,880 --> 00:13:18,679
Speaker 1: This is a little bit different case, those are actually

303
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: what you need to take the next step. And for me,

304
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 1: I gotta tell you only did I like the way

305
00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:24,760
Speaker 1: he was acting on a fight week. I don't know

306
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:26,800
Speaker 1: what the situation is with the sexual assault allegations. We'll

307
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,280
Speaker 1: see what happens. But in terms of I think setting

308
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:33,480
Speaker 1: himself up to maximize his potential, that is the that's

309
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:35,560
Speaker 1: the Connor McGregor at age thirty to thirty one that

310
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:37,520
Speaker 1: he needs to be to get the best out of

311
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,920
Speaker 1: himself and cannot do it doing the same old things.

312
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:41,679
Speaker 2: I want to say this when you you know, when

313
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: we give takes on any polarizing athlete. You get half

314
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:45,760
Speaker 2: of the population being like, oh, you're a you know

315
00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:49,440
Speaker 2: you're a and certainly you always have to put in

316
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 2: play this when a star is on the level of Connor,

317
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 2: when he wins in his back like this, Yes, it

318
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,440
Speaker 2: helps everybody. It helps our careers, it helps everybody. We

319
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,560
Speaker 2: put that out there just to say it. But one thing,

320
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 2: I don't want to believe the image that he put through.

321
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:03,200
Speaker 2: I don't know if he saw the interview with Ariel

322
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:06,240
Speaker 2: Hajwani last Monday on ESPN, when Connor talked heavily about,

323
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,839
Speaker 2: you know, drinking in the training camp for Habib getting

324
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,720
Speaker 2: into like a real sparring situation without headgear, knocking people out,

325
00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,840
Speaker 2: and then taking three days off and going out and partying.

326
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,600
Speaker 2: It's obvious that that version of him at two twenty nine,

327
00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:20,080
Speaker 2: whether or not Habib would always beat him or not, right,

328
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,720
Speaker 2: that's not the best possible version of Connor McGregor. He

329
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 2: was living the omni king life at that point. The

330
00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,280
Speaker 2: fact that, look, he's such a great loser. Connor Gregor

331
00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:31,680
Speaker 2: is the best loser UFC has ever seen, because there's

332
00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:33,560
Speaker 2: a few of them. But he gets right back on track.

333
00:14:33,560 --> 00:14:35,560
Speaker 2: He wants to rematch right away. He wants to publicly

334
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,160
Speaker 2: kind of talk it out and figure out what went

335
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 2: wrong and share with you. I think he was doing

336
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,760
Speaker 2: that again, saying I wasn't some pretty bad things in

337
00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 2: twenty eighteen and twenty nineteen. I was believing my you know,

338
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 2: hype train a little bit too much. The fact that

339
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,760
Speaker 2: he seems to come around full circle on that. I'm

340
00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:51,520
Speaker 2: not here to completely advocate him as a human. I'm

341
00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,480
Speaker 2: here to tell you that this is a compelling story

342
00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:57,760
Speaker 2: that's ongoing, and it's hard not to be behind, if

343
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,440
Speaker 2: not cheering for him to win, which we don't really

344
00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:01,840
Speaker 2: care for win and lose in journalism, obviously there's a

345
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 2: reason not to, but sharing for him to be relevant

346
00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 2: and to be there at the table and to be

347
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 2: the very best of him. I got to give him

348
00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 2: credit for what he was able to do this weekend.

349
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: On that year, you could have gone down the path

350
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: of self destruction. And again, the jury is still out,

351
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:15,120
Speaker 1: we're still very early into the process. That's the best decision.

352
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 1: This is great.

353
00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,200
Speaker 2: I mean, the amount of noise that Jay is letting

354
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 2: into my ear holes now is just the point.

355
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 1: The point being is this and we'll move on to

356
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:25,040
Speaker 1: topic two, which is, I'll say this again, the journey's

357
00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 1: not over. It's going to be a long while before

358
00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 1: he can really find something to really say. He's a

359
00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: brand new person. He's gonna have to stay out of trouble.

360
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: So certainly all that is the case, But he could

361
00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,600
Speaker 1: have gone down that path of self destruction. He had

362
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:41,280
Speaker 1: the financial wherewithal, he had the career accomplishments, and something

363
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,320
Speaker 1: about the whole situation again, his own mouthfeasts included, has

364
00:15:45,320 --> 00:15:47,560
Speaker 1: sort of forced this change. I want to see it

365
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,120
Speaker 1: brought to its full potential. But you have to kind

366
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: of commend that. You have to commend a guy who

367
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,360
Speaker 1: made a choice, and he took the harder, more difficult

368
00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:59,360
Speaker 1: approach of the two in terms of rebuilding some things

369
00:15:59,400 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: that had been law.

370
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 2: People love winners first and foremost the casual public that

371
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:05,080
Speaker 2: buys pay per views, they love redemption stories even more.

372
00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:06,120
Speaker 2: I mean, that's really the bottom line.

373
00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,320
Speaker 1: He has that potential and the redemption story will continue.

374
00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:10,560
Speaker 1: Here we go to topic two, which is, Okay, great

375
00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 1: win for Connor, superb win really, but again, best I

376
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,520
Speaker 1: think you could have done given the circumstances. So what's next?

377
00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 1: He is saying he's not looking at opponents. He's saying

378
00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,680
Speaker 1: he's looking at the calendar. Maybe March, maybe May. We'll

379
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: have to see. But the two finalists, Brian Campbell go

380
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,360
Speaker 1: first on this one. They are Habib Nimber made out

381
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:28,200
Speaker 1: at one fifty five, which danat White says, whether we

382
00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:30,800
Speaker 1: agree or not, he is entitled to a title shot

383
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 1: Connor McGregor or at one seventy with jorgem masitdol who

384
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 1: should be next for Connor McGregor.

385
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:38,960
Speaker 2: I gotta give Dana credit, all right, Dana is who

386
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 2: he is, right, He's the greatest you Carnival Barker of

387
00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 2: our era, in our generation. I don't know if you

388
00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:46,760
Speaker 2: heard the speech he gave at the postfight press conference.

389
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 2: Go back and listen to it if you haven't. It's

390
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 2: the most lustful, energized, yet detailed and passionate speech of

391
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,160
Speaker 2: why Habib needs to be next. We all kind of,

392
00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:00,600
Speaker 2: no matter what you prefer in this question or Habib

393
00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 2: or Gauge, g or Ny or whatever in the spot,

394
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,400
Speaker 2: I think you're all going to agree that the most

395
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:07,200
Speaker 2: money is in Habib. So by default we're sort of

396
00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:08,960
Speaker 2: saying it's probably gonna up going that way. Dana is

397
00:17:08,960 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 2: consistent in saying that. But to hear Dana break down

398
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:16,720
Speaker 2: and compare this type of rivalry to you know, Ali

399
00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 2: and Fraser in terms of the hatred between them and

400
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:22,760
Speaker 2: the importance of this, it does remind you that it's

401
00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 2: rare to ever get a fight or a fight series

402
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 2: or a rivalry up to that level where it crosses,

403
00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:31,160
Speaker 2: you know, beyond sports fans, where it is front page

404
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,600
Speaker 2: news for everybody, where you just have to see it

405
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 2: because you have a vested interest in, Oh, that guy

406
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:37,880
Speaker 2: through the dollar through the window at that guy said

407
00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:39,720
Speaker 2: bad things about that Religiou the guy's religion, or that

408
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,280
Speaker 2: guy's cousins attacked him out. You know, you're on one

409
00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:44,159
Speaker 2: side of the fence on this when you have a

410
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:48,080
Speaker 2: window to make that when both brands are potentially if

411
00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 2: Habib gets through Tony in April and doesn't get injured,

412
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 2: both brands are ready and they're active, and they're coming

413
00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:55,160
Speaker 2: off wins and their prime, and you have a chance

414
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 2: to run that back again when you're more or less

415
00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:58,960
Speaker 2: guaranteed it's going to break the pay per view level.

416
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 2: And when Dana boasts like saying, I think this can

417
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:04,040
Speaker 2: move three million pay per views. This ain't Bob Aarram

418
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:06,320
Speaker 2: saying Tyson Fury Too is gonna do two million, or

419
00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:08,200
Speaker 2: Joe test were saying it's gonna do four or five.

420
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:10,880
Speaker 2: This is a legitimate claim if this is promoted right.

421
00:18:11,560 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 2: This is an insane sort of all time level beef

422
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:22,440
Speaker 2: that has legitimate connections to each of their legacies, Habib's

423
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,320
Speaker 2: unbeaten record, Connor's redemption story, trying to come back here

424
00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 2: after sort of falling out of line of being a

425
00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,119
Speaker 2: real fighter of the last three years and trying to

426
00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,719
Speaker 2: put it back on the tracks. Obviously, they have clashing styles,

427
00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 2: clashing personalities, clans, clashing nations, clashing fan groups. This fight

428
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,600
Speaker 2: means so much more than a one night one off

429
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,199
Speaker 2: of a Mozwitt LBMF fight that I think you go

430
00:18:42,520 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 2: all costs, in all lengths to make it so there's

431
00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:48,159
Speaker 2: no chance something happens that would stain it a little bit.

432
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 2: And I'm not just talking about its financial you know, potential,

433
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,879
Speaker 2: I'm talking about its importance level. It's now, it's time.

434
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:56,879
Speaker 1: It would be basically, how competitive do you think a

435
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,840
Speaker 1: second fight would because that's part of the equation here.

436
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:02,320
Speaker 2: I don't know oh, because Connor was unable in forty

437
00:19:02,359 --> 00:19:04,600
Speaker 2: seconds to answer a lot of the questions that we needed,

438
00:19:04,600 --> 00:19:06,720
Speaker 2: and to a certain degree, Cowboy was never going to

439
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,240
Speaker 2: be able to provide hard enough questions to get those answers.

440
00:19:09,400 --> 00:19:12,480
Speaker 2: But again the fact that we don't know that yet,

441
00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,360
Speaker 2: believe Connor is revived and believed in our hearts. If

442
00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,160
Speaker 2: you do believe this by watching his interviews, that two

443
00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:21,320
Speaker 2: twenty nine was not the very best of him. I

444
00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 2: think it's very syllable that he can win that fight,

445
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 2: and I think that drama alone. Look, I love Jorge.

446
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 2: When Connor says Jorge has a history of I'm sorry.

447
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,600
Speaker 2: When Connor says Tony and Habib have a history of

448
00:19:32,640 --> 00:19:34,080
Speaker 2: pulling out and that he doesn't even think that fight

449
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,560
Speaker 2: is gonna happen, I mean, what the hell. Habib's fought

450
00:19:36,600 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 2: seven times in six years. That's not a lot. That's

451
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,439
Speaker 2: a track record of injury and issue staying out. But

452
00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 2: if Abe beats Tony and he's healthy, you won million

453
00:19:44,040 --> 00:19:46,040
Speaker 2: percent cash of that in right now. And it's not

454
00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:48,320
Speaker 2: just about the money. I love the Jorge fight, but

455
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:51,959
Speaker 2: that's that's a one nighter. That's to me, is a

456
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,520
Speaker 2: one time one off thing where I think, like with

457
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 2: Connor and Habib, you're creating the rivalry of this era.

458
00:19:57,880 --> 00:20:00,440
Speaker 2: DC John Jones moves me unlike any valry, But that

459
00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 2: rivalry is still kind of one sided. This has the

460
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,040
Speaker 2: potential to be something next level.

461
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,080
Speaker 1: That rivalry is one sided. I mean that our first

462
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:08,400
Speaker 1: fight between d C and Jones went the full distance,

463
00:20:08,440 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: this one with Kabebe and Connor did not. Now to

464
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,720
Speaker 1: your point about whether or not the second one would

465
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 1: be competitive, uh, certainly. I would never want to count

466
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:18,199
Speaker 1: out the possibility of Connor to get better, to have

467
00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,720
Speaker 1: a different kind of mindset if he's locked into one

468
00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:24,280
Speaker 1: fifty five, the kind of extra training and really focused

469
00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: dieting that's required as a general life focus in general

470
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:31,119
Speaker 1: or is a framework, Yes, that would be part of

471
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:32,399
Speaker 1: it as well. But I gotta tell you, I think

472
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,240
Speaker 1: you got to go with jorgem masmul And the reason

473
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: why is you say we should shouldn't let anything get

474
00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:38,880
Speaker 1: in front of it. But they already did. They already

475
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 1: booked Kulbie, Nemba, made off, taken on Tony Ferguson, and

476
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:45,520
Speaker 1: just like Frankie Edgar Ill advisedly taking the fight against

477
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:47,360
Speaker 1: Chance Sung jung All. That's a bit of a different thing.

478
00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: But the point I'd made was, even if even if

479
00:20:51,520 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: Frankie gets through that fight, you're not getting out of

480
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:57,000
Speaker 1: there unscathed. Do you really think that Habibi is gonna

481
00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,480
Speaker 1: get out of there with a Tony Ferguson fight?

482
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:00,480
Speaker 2: Well that's taking Can I amend quick and just tell.

483
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:02,120
Speaker 1: You guy's never been knocked down, he's never been cut.

484
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:03,040
Speaker 1: I get you.

485
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 2: You ask me what's the pick? The choice is Habib.

486
00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,480
Speaker 2: But you're right there is many ways in back.

487
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 1: So let me get to that again with Tony Ferguson again.

488
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:13,679
Speaker 1: Have you never got made off, never been cut, never

489
00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,439
Speaker 1: been knocked down? He's gonna get one of those? One

490
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,720
Speaker 1: of those is gonna happen to him in that fight's

491
00:21:17,760 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: first of all. Second of all, it takes place in

492
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 1: May with Ramadan. Sorry what am I saying with Ramadan?

493
00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 1: Unless they had a super quick turnaround, now, it's not

494
00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: going to happen until August or so, maybe even September.

495
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: That doesn't fit Connor's particular narrative. Third, I noticed something

496
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,560
Speaker 1: this past week before the fight, so the fight had

497
00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:38,440
Speaker 1: not even taken place. I saw that the scrum of

498
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: Jorge Massa all the night he was launching his mescal

499
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:46,680
Speaker 1: went and trended on YouTube. I've never seen that before.

500
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 1: I've seen many, many times after a fight of video

501
00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: trends from Connor or de Diaz or Jorge or whoever.

502
00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 1: But Jorge wasn't fighting on the card, wasn't fighting at all,

503
00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:00,600
Speaker 1: just showed up, promoted his liquor, and that video hit

504
00:22:00,720 --> 00:22:04,640
Speaker 1: a million views and trended on YouTube. The big momentum

505
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:08,639
Speaker 1: right now is behind that guy. There's no guarantee that

506
00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:10,480
Speaker 1: Habib is gonna beat Tony, and even if he does,

507
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,320
Speaker 1: he's not gonna be ready on a three fight season schedule.

508
00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,880
Speaker 1: That Connor is talking about the biggest fight you can

509
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:19,440
Speaker 1: make right now in terms of just sales, it could

510
00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:22,280
Speaker 1: be Habib if it's promoted right, I agree. But I mean,

511
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: if we're talking turnaround, about getting assets to market, about

512
00:22:25,880 --> 00:22:28,920
Speaker 1: getting pen to paper, well that's Jorgemen Massitol. He's gonna

513
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:31,720
Speaker 1: be much readier, much quicker. Plus here's the other part

514
00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,320
Speaker 1: about it. If you're Connor McGregor, think about kamar Usman.

515
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:37,520
Speaker 1: Kamar Usman's already beaten Tyront, He's already beaten Leon. He's

516
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,080
Speaker 1: already beaten Kolby. He's already beaten, already a The only

517
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,439
Speaker 1: guy he hasn't beaten is Jorgemen Maswital. Now I'm not

518
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:45,360
Speaker 1: saying this would be fair Brian Campbell, but fairness saying

519
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,080
Speaker 1: god fuck all to do with it. Connor's around, obviously.

520
00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 1: If Connor beats Jorgemen Massvedal, dude, he's getting that title

521
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: shot against Kamar Usman. Whether he should or he should deal,

522
00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,400
Speaker 1: he got that. He's already got like, he's already got

523
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,359
Speaker 1: the habib one in the bag. You go. When you

524
00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,440
Speaker 1: beat Jorgey Maswadal, Dude, you have I'm in the world

525
00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:00,679
Speaker 1: at that.

526
00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 2: Point, he gets a title shot in any division he

527
00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,680
Speaker 2: wants without going through anybody.

528
00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: He'll get it right now against Kimora.

529
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 2: Yeah he could, he could, He won't, Dude, he was

530
00:23:08,840 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 2: a Aldo might be getting a title shot.

531
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,280
Speaker 1: So that's my first fansom weight. That's not well.

532
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: Rod Lesner was coming back from a steroid test and

533
00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:19,320
Speaker 2: was guaranteed to a shot a title shot. You get, okay,

534
00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 2: Number one, number two. Connor has had a magical way

535
00:23:22,440 --> 00:23:26,480
Speaker 2: look of always not just being a great loser, but

536
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,359
Speaker 2: having a built in excuse. Right while I moved up

537
00:23:28,359 --> 00:23:30,239
Speaker 2: two weight classes to fight Nate on short notice, right,

538
00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,359
Speaker 2: That's it's a perfect excuse to say, well, that may

539
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 2: have not have been the real Connor even losing to

540
00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:36,120
Speaker 2: Habib as one sided that he did and then taking

541
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:39,159
Speaker 2: fifteen months off, he's already kind of turning the wheels

542
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:40,479
Speaker 2: and saying, well, yeah, but I was drinking too much.

543
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,719
Speaker 2: He's the master at sort of setting it up. So

544
00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 2: depending on which lane he takes Habib one fifty five

545
00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 2: Jorge one seventy, a potential of a one sided loss

546
00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 2: kind of removes him from the discussion in that weight

547
00:23:52,640 --> 00:23:54,800
Speaker 2: division right away. As for a title, right so if

548
00:23:54,800 --> 00:23:56,639
Speaker 2: he loses to one of them, he's got to go

549
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 2: back to the other division. I think it would be

550
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,960
Speaker 2: smarter to try to get him right back in there

551
00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:02,840
Speaker 2: with Habib if it could be made, because it's the

552
00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:05,240
Speaker 2: biggest fight you could ever make. And if he should

553
00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:06,920
Speaker 2: lose it, then you.

554
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:08,760
Speaker 1: Just said many fights do you how many how many boys?

555
00:24:08,760 --> 00:24:12,120
Speaker 1: If he should Mayweather? Excuse me, how many buys does

556
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,840
Speaker 1: mass what all versus McGregor sell do you think it is?

557
00:24:14,960 --> 00:24:17,440
Speaker 2: If he should lose it. If he should lose it, Luke,

558
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,399
Speaker 2: then he just moves up to one seventy officially, and

559
00:24:20,480 --> 00:24:22,639
Speaker 2: it's like nothing happened, and you can still do the

560
00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:23,199
Speaker 2: most all.

561
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: You can just go the other way to one fifty

562
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:25,640
Speaker 1: five if you lose to mask.

563
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,639
Speaker 2: And you can do on the flip side. So wouldn't

564
00:24:27,680 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 2: you do the one that would make more money? Look

565
00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:30,199
Speaker 2: the no, you may do.

566
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:32,240
Speaker 1: The one that's less consequential, and you would wait for

567
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 1: the other guy to get ready. After a fight with

568
00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,080
Speaker 1: Tony Ferguson and Ramadan, we're the.

569
00:24:36,119 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 2: UFC and you just learned in a three year gap

570
00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 2: of McGregor's on predictability that he has the potential to

571
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:42,920
Speaker 2: make more money than he knows what to do with

572
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,439
Speaker 2: that can keep him out of the cage. You have

573
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,600
Speaker 2: a chance to do this, Abib one you do it, Luke.

574
00:24:46,640 --> 00:24:49,280
Speaker 2: And by the way, these decisions cannot be made until

575
00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:51,440
Speaker 2: April because you have to see if Habib can win

576
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,359
Speaker 2: and not get hurt. And then you're telling me, well,

577
00:24:53,400 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 2: then that would push the timeline too far. Do you

578
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,679
Speaker 2: know the little trinket that can give to Connor? They

579
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 2: can say, how about you open Raiders Stadium in Vegas

580
00:24:59,840 --> 00:25:02,400
Speaker 2: and August against Abib and it'll be outside in front

581
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,160
Speaker 2: of sixty thousand sight.

582
00:25:03,160 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 1: But Ramadan twenty twenty goes until late in May. Basically

583
00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,680
Speaker 1: he wouldn't be ready to fight until late June early August.

584
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 2: Okay, so we do that in August. You still allow

585
00:25:12,400 --> 00:25:14,480
Speaker 2: Connor a chance to fight in December if you did that,

586
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:16,000
Speaker 2: And by the way, that fight could be boxing, it

587
00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,639
Speaker 2: could be anything. You can't make this decision until April.

588
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 2: You cannot, and you wait to see what happens. And

589
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,640
Speaker 2: I agree with you that there's many ways that this

590
00:25:24,800 --> 00:25:26,800
Speaker 2: this Bibe fight can fall apart. Right now, based on

591
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,280
Speaker 2: that Tony fight, I agree with you, But if everything

592
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 2: works out, they're going in that direction, and they should

593
00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:32,840
Speaker 2: go in that direction.

594
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:35,480
Speaker 1: I think you go Jorge next, because if he loses

595
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,159
Speaker 1: a one to seven, if he wins it one seventy,

596
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,040
Speaker 1: holy shit, the world will be set on fire. If

597
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:40,959
Speaker 1: he loses, he can go right back to one fifty five.

598
00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:42,160
Speaker 1: And it makes no difference to me. Now we got

599
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:42,960
Speaker 1: to move on because.

600
00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:45,400
Speaker 2: On which which brand do you think is bigger long

601
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:49,160
Speaker 2: term potential for the UFC, Habib or Jorge.

602
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 1: Well, neither particularly Jorge is a little bit too old

603
00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: thirty four, he'll be He's still very competitive. But how

604
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: many years left hard to say. And Habib, I don't

605
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,160
Speaker 1: know that he has much longer. He's much younger see

606
00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:02,119
Speaker 1: thirty thirty and thirty one. I just don't know how

607
00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,560
Speaker 1: much longer he wants to do it, So that's a

608
00:26:04,600 --> 00:26:06,719
Speaker 1: little bit harder to say. Plus Qorte would be good

609
00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:08,920
Speaker 1: for Latin American markets. We already know what about the

610
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: story about Habibib. Let's move on to the third of

611
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:12,639
Speaker 1: those fights. Because they were asking about this at the

612
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,400
Speaker 1: post fight press conference, would you take a boxing fight?

613
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 1: Connor McGregor in twenty twenty and he said, we'll see,

614
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,560
Speaker 1: because the way it could go Brian is whether it's

615
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:22,919
Speaker 1: Habib or Jorge next, we'll have to end up seeing.

616
00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: Doesn't mean he has to fight Kbib. What if Habib's

617
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,880
Speaker 1: not ready? What if, on the other hand, Brian Campbell, Yeah, sorry,

618
00:26:29,920 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 1: it ends up being Many Pakiao or Floyd Mayweather. What

619
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: would you say is, let me ask you the question

620
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 1: in this way, what would you rather see if he's

621
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,640
Speaker 1: going to take a boxing fight, would you rather see

622
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,560
Speaker 1: him rematch Floyd or would you rather see him fight Manny?

623
00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,520
Speaker 1: Do you have a preference there or would you rather

624
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:46,160
Speaker 1: see him just avoid that altogether.

625
00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:48,600
Speaker 2: I would rather see him avoid it all together. As

626
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:49,879
Speaker 2: a fan in me, I want to see him come

627
00:26:49,880 --> 00:26:51,760
Speaker 2: back and fight three times in MMA and see if

628
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,240
Speaker 2: he can have a legitimate second chapter of his career

629
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 2: all the things we're talking about, be a title contender

630
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,880
Speaker 2: in two divisions, all that. There's way too much money

631
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 2: on the table for him not to take a boxing

632
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: match this calendar year. I firmly, one hundred percent believe

633
00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:06,320
Speaker 2: he will close the year win or lose in his

634
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:08,840
Speaker 2: second fight of this year in MMA. He will close

635
00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 2: the year in a boxing match. It just seems to

636
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 2: match up with the priorities of Dana White in this

637
00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,479
Speaker 2: fledgling ZUFA boxing thing that he wants to get off

638
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,359
Speaker 2: the ground. It would just make a ton of sense

639
00:27:17,400 --> 00:27:20,439
Speaker 2: that way. I know people are interested in the idea

640
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,360
Speaker 2: of a many Pacio fight because they haven't seen it yet.

641
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 2: Here's the problem, man, He's still too good. He's still

642
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:29,240
Speaker 2: too great. He would absolutely destroy McGregor. He would attack

643
00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:33,680
Speaker 2: from the same angles and quickness that dropped Keith Thurman. Right,

644
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:36,680
Speaker 2: you're unbeaten Walter Way champion at that point, McGregor would

645
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 2: have a hell of a time with despite the size advantage,

646
00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:42,520
Speaker 2: if he's going down the boxing road, I think Floyd

647
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,439
Speaker 2: Maywether's the fight to make. You're adding extra level of

648
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:47,760
Speaker 2: intrigue because Floyd will be forty three. He will have

649
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,680
Speaker 2: been out of a competitive environment going all the way

650
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:54,440
Speaker 2: back to the twenty seventeen first McGregor fight, and you're

651
00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,480
Speaker 2: putting on the line Floyd's fifteen to oh record. Floyd

652
00:27:57,480 --> 00:28:02,040
Speaker 2: built his entire marketing campaign around that zero TB all

653
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,560
Speaker 2: of that stuff. If he would somehow retire with one

654
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:07,560
Speaker 2: loss and it was to an MMA, obviously, that's how

655
00:28:07,600 --> 00:28:10,639
Speaker 2: you That's the cell right there. And I think with

656
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 2: the years gone by, Connor may have overachieved in that

657
00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 2: first fight. Maybe Floyd didn't turn it onto late. There's

658
00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 2: a lot of things you can say, but he didn't

659
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,680
Speaker 2: embarrass himself. And I'm not here to say I love

660
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,480
Speaker 2: this and I want this, but I'm here to say

661
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:25,080
Speaker 2: it's happening, and I'm here to say Floyd brings much

662
00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 2: more compelling opportunities in there of why the bizarre and

663
00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,640
Speaker 2: farcical thing of putting a boxing against an MMA guy

664
00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 2: actually has historical implications Because Floyd, this is not an exhibition.

665
00:28:35,359 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 2: This would be a real fight and Floyd zero would

666
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:37,320
Speaker 2: be lunch.

667
00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 1: First of all, you're abolutely right about Manupacie. For folks

668
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 1: who didn't realize this, he's been on fire of late.

669
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:43,560
Speaker 1: I know he's forty years old plus at this point,

670
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:46,320
Speaker 1: but he is. He hasn't looked this good in years.

671
00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:48,480
Speaker 1: Ever since he beat Lucas Matista, he has been on

672
00:28:48,520 --> 00:28:51,479
Speaker 1: an absolute tear. This is not the time for McGregor

673
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 1: to fight a guy like that period. The answer is

674
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 1: obviously Floyd for all the reasons you mentioned. Plus I'll

675
00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,480
Speaker 1: keep on it one more. Yes, forty three would able

676
00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,440
Speaker 1: to be I mean, I don't know how competitive it

677
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:04,600
Speaker 1: was the first time. It's to a degree up for interpretation.

678
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 1: It would be more competitive this time. I firmly believe that.

679
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,600
Speaker 1: But here's the real reason why you want to do it,

680
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:15,800
Speaker 1: beyond the fact because look what a McGregor Pakyaw fight sell. Yeah,

681
00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:18,480
Speaker 1: it would do really big business. Maybe not as much

682
00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,760
Speaker 1: as one with Floyd for a rematch, but still good enough.

683
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 1: But here's the reality, Brian. You know this as well

684
00:29:22,600 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 1: as I do. Floyd is the MMA boogeyman. He rains.

685
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:32,840
Speaker 1: No boxer has grabbed the consciousness of MM fans more

686
00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: than Floyd Mayweather. Floyd Mayweather drives MMA fans crazy because

687
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 1: he trolls them, because he beat their most celebrated star

688
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:43,040
Speaker 1: in a fight that was designed for him to look good.

689
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 1: Then he goes to Japan and beats all of the

690
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:50,280
Speaker 1: Japanese hardcore m fans delight in Tenson Escala and so

691
00:29:50,360 --> 00:29:53,160
Speaker 1: on and so on, and he keeps antagonizing them, and

692
00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: he keeps egging them on. And to a degree, you

693
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,600
Speaker 1: have to admit the blueprint that Mayweather built for himself

694
00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:00,840
Speaker 1: in terms of his self permit as well as his

695
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:04,400
Speaker 1: financial aggrandizement. Connor followed a lot of it. It's smartly.

696
00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:06,160
Speaker 1: I'm not even bagging on him. It was the right

697
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,240
Speaker 1: thing to do. Look at the success of it, right.

698
00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:12,280
Speaker 1: So Floyd is the guy that MMA fans want to

699
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,440
Speaker 1: see lose more than anyone. You have to make it

700
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,440
Speaker 1: that direction. It's more competitive, it might make more money,

701
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,959
Speaker 1: and it means more to the community. Because Pacquiao, frankly

702
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:25,719
Speaker 1: to MMA fans kind of revered. They really like his

703
00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 1: all action style. They may not have been keeping up

704
00:30:28,080 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 1: with his more recent fights, but if you ask him,

705
00:30:30,000 --> 00:30:31,880
Speaker 1: do you have a positive view of Manny Pacquiao. Well,

706
00:30:31,920 --> 00:30:34,680
Speaker 1: the fight against Mayweather suck, but in general he's got

707
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 1: good knockouts. He goes for it. Dana White was saying

708
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:39,520
Speaker 1: it was his favorite boxer. He bought the Manipaquio shoes,

709
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,480
Speaker 1: the whole nine yards. So you have to go in

710
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 1: the Floyd and may with a direction. Now do I

711
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:45,120
Speaker 1: want them to go in that direction? I'd like to

712
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 1: see a year where he fights Serroney, masvid All and

713
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,280
Speaker 1: then never enough. To me, that would be the best

714
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: year he could possibly have. But I get it. Suva

715
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:55,000
Speaker 1: Boxing was supposed to have an announcement in October. October pass,

716
00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:58,160
Speaker 1: November past, December past, where now in January they're still

717
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 1: kind of hinting at it. They need those two to

718
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:03,480
Speaker 1: put some electrical charge into that.

719
00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,640
Speaker 2: Frankison, let me ask you this. Let's say we did

720
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 2: that fight in December for whatever, Floyd Maymac two. Here

721
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:13,240
Speaker 2: we go, let's say Connor second fight. He loses, but

722
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 2: loses respectfully. Okay, so the brand is not damage. He

723
00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:18,120
Speaker 2: just lost a hell of a fight against a Bieber

724
00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:21,160
Speaker 2: or whatever. Okay, we go in five million pay per

725
00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 2: view buys for Maymac two or would it be muted

726
00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:26,160
Speaker 2: and go down to about three and a half because

727
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,160
Speaker 2: we've seen it already. I mean, the potential if you

728
00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,400
Speaker 2: market this right, I mean, I don't know the perfect

729
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:35,040
Speaker 2: storm of that media tour, that show time so well

730
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 2: put on. By the way, the first two stops incredible performance.

731
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,440
Speaker 2: Are the last two I want to forget they ever happened.

732
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:43,000
Speaker 2: That was a perfect storm within it, within a perfect

733
00:31:43,040 --> 00:31:45,040
Speaker 2: storm like that was just the you know, talk about

734
00:31:45,120 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 2: selling a fight, could you could you grind it up

735
00:31:47,920 --> 00:31:49,520
Speaker 2: to actually exceed.

736
00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,680
Speaker 1: The four point four I'll tell you this one. If

737
00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:54,440
Speaker 1: he loses, let's say he fights Masvidal and loses, but

738
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: loses respectfully, I think you end up doing less. But

739
00:31:57,720 --> 00:32:00,200
Speaker 1: let's say he goes out there and starches Masvidal one

740
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,040
Speaker 1: punch KOs and flat sif the whole nine yards Jose

741
00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:05,920
Speaker 1: aldos All maybe not thirteen seconds, but similar kind of

742
00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: just you know, frozen body, the kind of way that

743
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:12,120
Speaker 1: Masoudall left, Ben Askron, I think in that particular context,

744
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: you actually might be able to do more. To me,

745
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,280
Speaker 1: it really hinges on how he looks in his next fight.

746
00:32:16,720 --> 00:32:19,200
Speaker 1: Is he really back back or is he back in that?

747
00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 1: Did he stopped the bleeding that's really the question how much,

748
00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,240
Speaker 1: because really, if it was, if it was going to

749
00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,040
Speaker 1: be more than the last time, you have to give

750
00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,000
Speaker 1: them a good reason to think that. A good way

751
00:32:28,040 --> 00:32:30,680
Speaker 1: to show that would be to change your lifestyle and

752
00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 1: then have the results match the lifestyle to say, aha,

753
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,320
Speaker 1: Now when we circle back here, because time is a

754
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: flat circle, Brian Campbell, Now we have a chance. Now,

755
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,160
Speaker 1: we have a chance to do things a little bit

756
00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,120
Speaker 1: differently this time. But if he goes in there and

757
00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,160
Speaker 1: he kind of shows us that we already saw his ceiling,

758
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: I tend to think not there you go fair, very fair,

759
00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:54,040
Speaker 1: all right, you're fair, but you're firm.

760
00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:58,880
Speaker 2: Here we go, yeah, no nineties and no dongs. We're

761
00:32:58,920 --> 00:32:59,400
Speaker 2: on a good run.

762
00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:03,120
Speaker 1: It's never late. But okay. So that it takes us

763
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:06,720
Speaker 1: to our fourth topic. Now, one piece of news that

764
00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:08,960
Speaker 1: was big. You were there all fight week was not

765
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,680
Speaker 1: about Connor McGregor, believe it or not, but it was

766
00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:15,480
Speaker 1: about what's coming down the horizon for the UFC's calendar.

767
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:17,840
Speaker 1: In March UFC two forty Eightive memory serves it is

768
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 1: going to be Israel Attasanya defending his title against Joel Romero,

769
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:24,360
Speaker 1: and they didn't make a data official, but it appears

770
00:33:24,400 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: that UFC Bantamway champion Henry Shudo it's gonna fight Jose Aldo.

771
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,920
Speaker 1: Now what's the common denominator between both of those? Brian Campbell,

772
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 1: Jol Romero coming off of a loss, a heart fought loss,

773
00:33:34,880 --> 00:33:37,360
Speaker 1: a controversial loss, but a loss just the same Jose Aldo.

774
00:33:37,400 --> 00:33:39,480
Speaker 1: You can say the same thing about Marlon Mirisch. People

775
00:33:39,520 --> 00:33:42,600
Speaker 1: have said, is this the end of meritocracy? Are there

776
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:44,880
Speaker 1: any is there anything different about the two scenarios. I

777
00:33:44,960 --> 00:33:46,480
Speaker 1: have to tell you this is where I come down.

778
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:50,920
Speaker 1: I have no problem whatsoever with Atosania versus Romero. I

779
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,640
Speaker 1: have every problem with Aldo versus Suhudo. Let me tell

780
00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 1: you why I and see where I want to see

781
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,560
Speaker 1: where you come down on this. Here's why I think

782
00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,720
Speaker 1: there's a critical difference. One he has miss waited a

783
00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 1: few times. That's not great, which credit to Jose Aldo.

784
00:34:03,760 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 1: He made this one time. A bands some wait no issue.

785
00:34:06,120 --> 00:34:08,520
Speaker 1: But in Joel Romero, while he is long in the

786
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,440
Speaker 1: tooth and he has had weight issues, he's also made

787
00:34:10,440 --> 00:34:12,839
Speaker 1: it before as well. Only he's always a problem. But

788
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: more importantly, he's got a long decorated history down there.

789
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 1: He has been at middlewait a very long time. Two

790
00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:21,000
Speaker 1: He's beaten many former champions. At two of five was

791
00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:22,720
Speaker 1: where he was a champion, but he stopped with strikes

792
00:34:22,960 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 1: Leoto Machieda, he stopped Chris Widman, he stopped Luke Rockold,

793
00:34:26,680 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. He has been shown

794
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,879
Speaker 1: to be devastating against that division's elite year every year.

795
00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,839
Speaker 1: I'm sure he lost to Robert Whitaker, but I thought

796
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:36,839
Speaker 1: he won the second fight against Costa coin flip could

797
00:34:36,840 --> 00:34:38,520
Speaker 1: have gone either way, all right, which you could see

798
00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 1: the same for Aldo and Marish. But fine, he beat you.

799
00:34:42,640 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 1: I'll let you make that claim. But the point being

800
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,320
Speaker 1: is this, he has shown to be a demonstrated winner

801
00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: down there against very very clear opposition too. Most importantly,

802
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,080
Speaker 1: there's no one in front of him. If you want

803
00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: to go through the rankings perspective, that's one way. Of course,

804
00:34:56,640 --> 00:34:58,680
Speaker 1: it should be Costa. That's the way it would go.

805
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 1: But he's not ready out there. But he just lost,

806
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,040
Speaker 1: and obviously he's got some issues he has to work

807
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:06,239
Speaker 1: it with, so that's a separate issue. There's no other

808
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:08,000
Speaker 1: real contender out there in front of him. I know

809
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 1: cannony Or is close. He might have been the fighting

810
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:11,640
Speaker 1: till we'll have to see how that whole thing goes.

811
00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 1: But from a position of the guy's been down there,

812
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,799
Speaker 1: the guy's beaten champions, and really there's no one else

813
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 1: in front of him. The UFC has a choice to

814
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,520
Speaker 1: make here. They want to keep out a sign you're busy.

815
00:35:20,680 --> 00:35:22,640
Speaker 1: This is the way to go. Aldo, to me is

816
00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:26,440
Speaker 1: totally different. He has no record at bantamwaite other than

817
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:28,640
Speaker 1: one fight, which he lost. Granted it was close, you

818
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:31,040
Speaker 1: could have gone either way, but that's it. Okay, he

819
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,319
Speaker 1: made weight and that's fine. But the other part is

820
00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:35,759
Speaker 1: if you look in the rankings, Aldo, do you know

821
00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 1: where he's sitting right now in the rankings?

822
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:37,520
Speaker 2: No.

823
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:41,839
Speaker 1: Eight? He is sitting at eight. Okay, you're gonna put

824
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,480
Speaker 1: him a lot higher. You're gonna put him higher then,

825
00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 1: and this is the important part, Peter Yan, You're gonna

826
00:35:46,080 --> 00:35:48,560
Speaker 1: put him higher than al Jamain Sterling. I know those

827
00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:52,760
Speaker 1: aren't the sexiest fights. Those are deserving fighters. San Haagen's

828
00:35:52,760 --> 00:35:54,600
Speaker 1: sitting at four. Those are two, three and four right

829
00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 1: there you can go. So here is my point. It

830
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,840
Speaker 1: is so shitty to those guys who've been putting in

831
00:35:59,840 --> 00:36:02,279
Speaker 1: the work to go this direction. The last thing I'll say,

832
00:36:02,320 --> 00:36:03,719
Speaker 1: Brian before I pitch it to you, and you're shit

833
00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 1: eating cheshire cat.

834
00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:07,640
Speaker 2: Oh wow, all right, I'm teazing.

835
00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,360
Speaker 1: Is this The only reason they're doing it is because

836
00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 1: Brazil's old stars have not produced enough new ones. This

837
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,759
Speaker 1: is to give a jolt to the Brazilian market that

838
00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:20,040
Speaker 1: really kind of need ones. Costa was the fight to

839
00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,160
Speaker 1: make for Atisania and they couldn't. We'll see if they

840
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 1: can get that going, if you can get.

841
00:36:23,120 --> 00:36:25,719
Speaker 2: Past faith in Korea. But you know, you bet youa

842
00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:26,399
Speaker 2: she didn't pan.

843
00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,799
Speaker 1: Out right fair enough. So this is the reason they're

844
00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:30,759
Speaker 1: doing it, because yes, he's got a little bit more

845
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,080
Speaker 1: star power. Do you really think Aldo ver Suhuto does

846
00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 1: Gangbusters on pay per view? It does not might do

847
00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:38,839
Speaker 1: more than Sehudo versus Peter jan But that's not the reason,

848
00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:41,719
Speaker 1: please get it right, fair enough. The reason is they

849
00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:43,359
Speaker 1: got to give it old pat on the rear end

850
00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:44,520
Speaker 1: to the Brazilian market.

851
00:36:44,560 --> 00:36:47,320
Speaker 2: And that's all right, Luke, Can I talk it or

852
00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:48,920
Speaker 2: you want to finish the show, go ahead?

853
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:49,160
Speaker 1: Pass?

854
00:36:50,120 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 2: So you're one hundred percent right on Josi Aldough. It's

855
00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,239
Speaker 2: bad aesthetics, it's bad for the ranking system, it's bad

856
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,080
Speaker 2: that we're not even talking about an empty division. If

857
00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 2: this was an empty division, you'd be like, I'll grab

858
00:36:59,800 --> 00:37:01,839
Speaker 2: any star who has a pulse that I can put

859
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:04,080
Speaker 2: him in there. You're right, all those guys deserve it.

860
00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,839
Speaker 2: Cory Sanhagen, you're the man you should be, you know,

861
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:10,319
Speaker 2: put publicly being like this is BS Yet I love it, Luke,

862
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,839
Speaker 2: I love the shit out of it. Josie Aldo about

863
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:15,280
Speaker 2: one thirty five as the potential to be an absolute killer,

864
00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:17,920
Speaker 2: kind of left the back door open against Morition. It's

865
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:20,239
Speaker 2: his fault he lost that fight. This is one of

866
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,480
Speaker 2: those where I'm telling you it's the wrong move, but

867
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 2: it feels so right. So can we just go forth

868
00:37:24,600 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 2: with it? There's only one man I am. Something happened. Look,

869
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:32,560
Speaker 2: Josie Aldo. I've got a lot of respect for him,

870
00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,359
Speaker 2: but as a fan, I never really bought in on Jose.

871
00:37:35,480 --> 00:37:37,160
Speaker 2: Although he's kind of boring, he's kind of you know,

872
00:37:37,200 --> 00:37:39,840
Speaker 2: he is what he is. Something about this this turn

873
00:37:40,040 --> 00:37:43,240
Speaker 2: of old Joseieldo. Something about the way he fought against

874
00:37:43,239 --> 00:37:46,200
Speaker 2: Max twice, being so willing to go out on his shield,

875
00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,120
Speaker 2: and the way he's attempted to sort of revive himself

876
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:50,880
Speaker 2: in the past few years and now the dedication and

877
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,600
Speaker 2: the commitment to this cut to one thirty five. I

878
00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:55,760
Speaker 2: think there's a window for here for him to actually

879
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 2: become a champion in this division and put a nice

880
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 2: capstone on his legacy. He does he deserve this title shot. No,

881
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: are they doing it for business and all those reasons. Yes,

882
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,279
Speaker 2: but there's only one man who can save us from

883
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,480
Speaker 2: this cringe, and it just might be josel I.

884
00:38:09,440 --> 00:38:11,120
Speaker 1: Don't think he does. He's doing his own version of

885
00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:16,760
Speaker 1: Portuguese spoken cringe and neither of the remember Captain Cringe

886
00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 1: wants it though, Dude, since when has that? I know, Dan,

887
00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: it was like they both want it, and since when

888
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 1: has that ever mattered in any.

889
00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:27,759
Speaker 2: Other There was a fight called Bisping Henderson too. It

890
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 2: mattered there, Yeah, exactly it only here's why it matters.

891
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 2: It matters when, well, we want to make more money

892
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,040
Speaker 2: with this fight than with that fight. But the idea

893
00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:36,960
Speaker 2: that like, because both competitors want it, that's a reason

894
00:38:36,960 --> 00:38:38,279
Speaker 2: to do it. That's only a reason to do it

895
00:38:38,320 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 2: when the UFC also wants to do it. It's never

896
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 2: ever moved them when they didn't want There's not like

897
00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:45,560
Speaker 2: they didn't want to put in the fight. They go, well,

898
00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:47,879
Speaker 2: both guys want it, so I guess we have no

899
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 2: choice at this point.

900
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,439
Speaker 1: It's just a convenient excuse to make it look man,

901
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,319
Speaker 1: I don't think it sells that much more than it

902
00:38:53,360 --> 00:38:55,759
Speaker 1: was before. It's good for the Brazilian market, obviously, if

903
00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:57,759
Speaker 1: he wins, it'd be tremendous. But what if he doesn't.

904
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,520
Speaker 1: He goes in there and he looks terrible. Now, now

905
00:39:00,520 --> 00:39:03,040
Speaker 1: what do you do? You just you burned an opportunity

906
00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,600
Speaker 1: to make the right fight. He doesn't look any good

907
00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,400
Speaker 1: advance and weight. There's a lot of different ways this

908
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,200
Speaker 1: could go just terribly terribly.

909
00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:10,200
Speaker 2: Wrong, a lot of ways it can go great. By

910
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:12,960
Speaker 2: the way, and shout out to Atisania's balls, because you know,

911
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 2: Dana echoed this. He's like anyone that might have a

912
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,080
Speaker 2: problem with this, like, what else do I want my

913
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:19,640
Speaker 2: stars to do? But be like, I want the toughest

914
00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:21,239
Speaker 2: guy in the jail, so like, let's do it right now,

915
00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:21,600
Speaker 2: day one.

916
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,719
Speaker 1: You know, most top boxers, top fighters are like, would

917
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,719
Speaker 1: be like, woof, don't have to take on that guy.

918
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 1: Someone else took care of it for me. He's like, no, no, no, no,

919
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:29,560
Speaker 1: I want to make sure I get a care of

920
00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:29,839
Speaker 1: for taking.

921
00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:33,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, no, no, I plan on fulfilling my legacy.

922
00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:35,480
Speaker 2: And it starts right now, like buckle up, like let's

923
00:39:35,520 --> 00:39:36,239
Speaker 2: let's let's be there.

924
00:39:36,160 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: All right to do this. And last, but not least,

925
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:39,799
Speaker 1: Brian and I, you can catch us at the Barclays

926
00:39:39,800 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 1: Center on Saturday because Showtime Championship Boxing is back and

927
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:49,000
Speaker 1: in your main event, Danny Garcia returns to the Barclay Center,

928
00:39:49,000 --> 00:39:50,960
Speaker 1: which he has not won his last two times out there.

929
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,880
Speaker 1: By the way, so he has won there many times,

930
00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:54,520
Speaker 1: but the last two have not been that case when

931
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:58,440
Speaker 1: he takes on Ivan Redcatch. So the belief behind this one, Brian,

932
00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:00,840
Speaker 1: tell me if you agree is that, well, well, Danny's

933
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 1: probably the better boxer of the two. Certainly got better wins,

934
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 1: although the Devin Alexander win is a nice win for

935
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:08,760
Speaker 1: red Cash. Okay, but in the end, he is looking

936
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:11,560
Speaker 1: to stay busy because he's got eyes on a bigger prize.

937
00:40:11,600 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: Is that a fair way to look at this, or

938
00:40:13,040 --> 00:40:13,760
Speaker 1: we give an Ivan.

939
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:15,520
Speaker 2: Two little credit? No, this is a fun, stay busy fight.

940
00:40:15,520 --> 00:40:17,439
Speaker 2: We have to understand this was supposed to be Erol

941
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:19,600
Speaker 2: Spence Junior. That's what the plan was you remember after

942
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:22,080
Speaker 2: Errol Spence beat Sean Porter, Danny Garcia is in the ring.

943
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:23,680
Speaker 2: They were supposed to do it this time of the year.

944
00:40:23,680 --> 00:40:27,080
Speaker 2: Obviously Spence's accident has delayed it. So there's a reason

945
00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 2: why Danny Garcia is looking to get a Southpaw in there.

946
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,600
Speaker 2: There's big business ahead if he passes the stay busy test,

947
00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,440
Speaker 2: and he's always a monster draw at the Barclays. You

948
00:40:34,480 --> 00:40:36,759
Speaker 2: gotta give him that credit. Close to his home in Philadelphia,

949
00:40:37,160 --> 00:40:39,400
Speaker 2: Ivan Redcotch is what he is, but he's fun. He

950
00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 2: comes to brawl. He's on a three fight win streak,

951
00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:44,080
Speaker 2: and you look back at that win against Deevin Alexander, Yes,

952
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 2: a faded former champion, but he absolutely dominated him Luke

953
00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:50,080
Speaker 2: and knocked him down three times and finished him. This

954
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,800
Speaker 2: is a fun opportunity, and you consider this, Danny Garcia

955
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,120
Speaker 2: has a chance at Pacquiao or Spence next. That's why

956
00:40:58,160 --> 00:41:00,480
Speaker 2: he picked the south Paul. Right here, Dane, I think

957
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,120
Speaker 2: has kind of evolved into being the Walterway Division's most

958
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 2: dangerous puncher. He's really proven that. Go back and watch

959
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:09,200
Speaker 2: the Granados and the Rios knockouts. If he deposits Ivan

960
00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,000
Speaker 2: Redkotch and makes a statement here that very well could

961
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,359
Speaker 2: get him the Manipachio fight, and that would certainly matter

962
00:41:14,440 --> 00:41:16,120
Speaker 2: for his career. There was a time after I beat

963
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,880
Speaker 2: Lucas Matisse in twenty thirteen that we thought he deserved

964
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:21,000
Speaker 2: the Floyd Mayweather fight. Next he thought he deserved it,

965
00:41:21,080 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 2: he never got it. This could be his opportunity at

966
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,280
Speaker 2: really becoming the level of star that he wants to be. Obviously,

967
00:41:26,320 --> 00:41:28,400
Speaker 2: they'd be a welterweight title at stake. I'd want him

968
00:41:28,400 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 2: to see him against either of those guys. I'd love

969
00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:31,880
Speaker 2: to see him run back his losses to Porter and

970
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,280
Speaker 2: Thurman that were very close as well at the Barclay Center.

971
00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,120
Speaker 2: But you want to talk about what's at steak here,

972
00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:38,279
Speaker 2: you make a splash, you make a statement against a

973
00:41:38,360 --> 00:41:40,399
Speaker 2: hungry guy who comes to brawl. This could be big

974
00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:41,040
Speaker 2: things at him.

975
00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,080
Speaker 1: Oh So, Danny Garcia can be super technical when he

976
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:45,480
Speaker 1: needs to be, and I think he probably will be

977
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,600
Speaker 1: the more technical of the two, but he actually pairs up.

978
00:41:48,719 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 1: He's not a He can be a stick and move

979
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:52,920
Speaker 1: guy against another bit of a brawler, but he can

980
00:41:52,960 --> 00:41:54,799
Speaker 1: also be a I think you get up with it

981
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,439
Speaker 1: this way. I think you get Danny Garcia as more

982
00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:59,919
Speaker 1: of an action fighter when he's got someone like Ivan

983
00:42:00,200 --> 00:42:01,920
Speaker 1: in front of him. Absolutely, you get a little bit

984
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 1: more of that plus your comin event DC's own Jared

985
00:42:04,719 --> 00:42:08,520
Speaker 1: Hurd loses to Jay Rock in his hometown. Oh, it

986
00:42:08,600 --> 00:42:11,680
Speaker 1: was such a disaster. Comes out as like the Redskins Ambassador,

987
00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:13,799
Speaker 1: the whole bit, and then the comin event. Jared Hurd

988
00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: taking on Francisco Santana, changes trainers to go with a

989
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,080
Speaker 1: gentleman out of Alexandria, Virginia who is involved in USA

990
00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,560
Speaker 1: boxing at the amture level but has trained Olympians. He's

991
00:42:24,560 --> 00:42:28,320
Speaker 1: been in Colorado Springs. Jared Heard coming out here after

992
00:42:28,360 --> 00:42:30,200
Speaker 1: that terrible loss to Jay Rock. But by the way,

993
00:42:30,200 --> 00:42:32,799
Speaker 1: we'll talk about himlater because he lost this weekend. This

994
00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,120
Speaker 1: the divisions fired this division vision fire, which you know what,

995
00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:36,680
Speaker 1: I feel like all of the air went out of

996
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:39,319
Speaker 1: the tire on Jared Heard. It's interesting he was on

997
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,040
Speaker 1: this one more he could have been building and I

998
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 1: feel like he's just totally.

999
00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:43,920
Speaker 2: You don't see this move a lot. What do I

1000
00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:45,680
Speaker 2: mean by this? He lost a fight to Julian Will

1001
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:46,840
Speaker 2: was one of the fights of the year, but it

1002
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:49,640
Speaker 2: was largely one sided, and he had the opportunity, the

1003
00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,080
Speaker 2: contractual opportunity. It was actually supposed to be him in

1004
00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,400
Speaker 2: Jay Rock this past weekend. If you really look at

1005
00:42:54,400 --> 00:42:56,400
Speaker 2: the way it played out, he chose against that he

1006
00:42:56,440 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 2: was flirting with moving up to Middleway. It's an extreme

1007
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,279
Speaker 2: cut at fifty four. He's a monster Junior Welterwait. I

1008
00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:03,920
Speaker 2: love that he went back to the drawing board. And

1009
00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:05,440
Speaker 2: I interviewed him a couple weeks ago and he told

1010
00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:07,600
Speaker 2: me straight up Midway, I'm sorry. I love that he

1011
00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 2: went back to the drawing board and said, look, you

1012
00:43:09,040 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 2: know what, I started believing in my hype a little

1013
00:43:10,560 --> 00:43:12,000
Speaker 2: bit too much. My head got big, I didn't do

1014
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:14,800
Speaker 2: the things I needed to do. Not different than Connor McGregor,

1015
00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,799
Speaker 2: by the way, in being that public with it. And

1016
00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:18,520
Speaker 2: now he's like, I'm not going to run back that

1017
00:43:18,520 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 2: title shot. I'm gonna stay in this division and I'm

1018
00:43:20,280 --> 00:43:23,920
Speaker 2: going to regroup and build start over. I love that attitude.

1019
00:43:23,960 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 2: He's obviously a fighter who gets by on size and

1020
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,120
Speaker 2: aggressions so much, but I think he learned in that

1021
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,919
Speaker 2: Jay Rock fight, look that he's got to add add

1022
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,840
Speaker 2: more wrinkles to the game. He's got to add more skills.

1023
00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 2: And by the way, he's finally moving out of his parents' house.

1024
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:40,160
Speaker 2: This is this is a more mature swift Jared Hurd. So,

1025
00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:41,839
Speaker 2: so he's got a lot to prove on Saturday night.

1026
00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:42,480
Speaker 2: It's gonna be fun to.

1027
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,879
Speaker 1: See, all right. So there are our five topics, which

1028
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,719
Speaker 1: means it's time now to get to your questions. It's

1029
00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,960
Speaker 1: dms from Donk, Slaves and gentlemen. See if we got

1030
00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:53,640
Speaker 1: any animation there, it is play that at By the way,

1031
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:55,720
Speaker 1: Jay's telling me to make sure you put your earpiece

1032
00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:56,719
Speaker 1: back in. Why can't you.

1033
00:43:56,680 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 2: Well because every two minutes it's like trying to blow

1034
00:43:59,239 --> 00:44:03,400
Speaker 2: my no, there's a static and feedback. It sounds like

1035
00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,879
Speaker 2: Jay playing guitar. Did you see his Johnny Cash video

1036
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:08,960
Speaker 2: that he put out there? Two we're going too deep,

1037
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:09,719
Speaker 2: too meta on Jay?

1038
00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,240
Speaker 1: Sorry, Jay put out a Johnny Cash.

1039
00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:14,920
Speaker 2: Jays a musician, director, producer, jays a renaissance.

1040
00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:15,799
Speaker 1: Mediocre, all those things.

1041
00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 2: Have you seen? Have you heard his podcast with Sindbad.

1042
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:19,640
Speaker 2: I was a guest on it one. Yeah, apparently I

1043
00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:20,560
Speaker 2: think it fell apart after that.

1044
00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 1: The Okay, so let's go first. I think we have

1045
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:24,560
Speaker 1: riggins thirty two.

1046
00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,800
Speaker 2: I love that that guy's becoming a regular in this family.

1047
00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,360
Speaker 1: I certainly is. What did you make of the respectful

1048
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,080
Speaker 1: builder from Connor this week? I seen, I have seen

1049
00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: Sir got to conjugate these verbs correctly. I have seen

1050
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: some media and fans say it was boring, but I

1051
00:44:38,480 --> 00:44:40,560
Speaker 1: found a refreshing change. To be honest, I'm the toxic

1052
00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,680
Speaker 1: build up of a kobep fight. The same people would

1053
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:45,480
Speaker 1: probably further criticize Connor if he returned to that. We

1054
00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,560
Speaker 1: kind of went over this, but you didn't don't know

1055
00:44:47,560 --> 00:44:49,120
Speaker 1: if you waited in it. Do you like this Connor?

1056
00:44:49,200 --> 00:44:51,719
Speaker 2: I do? I do like it a lot. I need

1057
00:44:51,800 --> 00:44:54,200
Speaker 2: him to still be the Connor if somebody agitates him

1058
00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,640
Speaker 2: and somebody activates that, because that character has become such

1059
00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 2: a monster draw in this sport. It's insanely fun to be.

1060
00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, in fairness, isn't the case with everybody? Like you

1061
00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:07,359
Speaker 1: can get who's the most respectful person? GSP. Maybe he

1062
00:45:07,440 --> 00:45:09,879
Speaker 1: never broke it, but I feel like you've gotten more

1063
00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:11,520
Speaker 1: of the George that time I made that awful line

1064
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,239
Speaker 1: to Matt. He was in the fair enough age, but

1065
00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,560
Speaker 1: that was stage. But I mean to say, even the

1066
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:19,360
Speaker 1: most like, for example, even De la Hoya. I remember

1067
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,200
Speaker 1: dude when he was getting the bare when when my

1068
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:25,879
Speaker 1: argu player was like, I'm gonna drink his wife's breast milk, bro,

1069
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:30,360
Speaker 1: you had De la Hoya losing his mind, and I understandably.

1070
00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,640
Speaker 1: So like if the point being is if Connor keeps

1071
00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:37,160
Speaker 1: it cool but then loses it against kabebe okay loses

1072
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:38,759
Speaker 1: a strong word, but I wouldn't really mind.

1073
00:45:39,320 --> 00:45:41,400
Speaker 2: I don't think he's going to go down the level

1074
00:45:41,400 --> 00:45:43,960
Speaker 2: of nastiness. I think he'll return fire for fire in

1075
00:45:44,040 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 2: certain situations. But you have to remember the build of

1076
00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:49,560
Speaker 2: two twenty nine was insanely off the rails at every

1077
00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:52,400
Speaker 2: step by Connor. Every step he was going for the throat.

1078
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:54,320
Speaker 2: So I think you're gonna see a much more reserved,

1079
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,800
Speaker 2: confident if it escalates a fire back. But we just

1080
00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:58,239
Speaker 2: want to see him be a little bit more human.

1081
00:45:58,280 --> 00:45:59,879
Speaker 2: I mean, you can go back and watch that build

1082
00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:01,800
Speaker 2: and look at his comments. I think there was a

1083
00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:03,680
Speaker 2: lot going on in his life, maybe even beyond drinking.

1084
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:05,240
Speaker 2: I think there was some you know, there's some issues

1085
00:46:05,280 --> 00:46:06,560
Speaker 2: if he works those out to be fine. I did

1086
00:46:06,600 --> 00:46:08,399
Speaker 2: ask day in a White Friday, I said, hey, any

1087
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:10,800
Speaker 2: fear that the pay per view numbers for this cowboy

1088
00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:14,040
Speaker 2: fight will be muted because Connor's not being Connor and

1089
00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:17,319
Speaker 2: he's like, uh no, I could. I could love seeing

1090
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,480
Speaker 2: him get more sanity in his life and live that.

1091
00:46:19,560 --> 00:46:21,399
Speaker 1: Ye actually said the post by press Coreverence. He goes

1092
00:46:21,400 --> 00:46:24,120
Speaker 1: Connor's happy. That's the difference. Before he was pissed off

1093
00:46:24,120 --> 00:46:26,320
Speaker 1: and just angry at things. You weren't quite sure why

1094
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,400
Speaker 1: because you're rich and you're winning, but whatever, but he

1095
00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:33,000
Speaker 1: looked happy. Yeah, dude, be happy, Stay cool. Jim's Orren

1096
00:46:33,080 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 1: staying positive, acting medium, you know what I'm saying, Keep

1097
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:39,400
Speaker 1: a medium Jim's ORNs style all right. Next from Emilio Brucia,

1098
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:42,839
Speaker 1: I guess, Bruce A, do you think we will see

1099
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:45,560
Speaker 1: more and more fighters using shoulder blows in the clinch

1100
00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 1: from now on? So he famously comes out and hits

1101
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:49,880
Speaker 1: him with that. So for dissected as we got out

1102
00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:51,759
Speaker 1: the John Jones doing it a couple of times as well.

1103
00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,080
Speaker 1: Although Jones did it to push a guy up and

1104
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,080
Speaker 1: then turn him and then take him off of his feet.

1105
00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,000
Speaker 1: Did Anthony Smith did it to Rashad Evans. My answer

1106
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,000
Speaker 1: to this one would be, you'll I'll probably see a

1107
00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,400
Speaker 1: little bit more of people trying it, but it's only

1108
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:07,439
Speaker 1: it's not one of these things where like no one

1109
00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:11,080
Speaker 1: was doing it because it's no one knew about it.

1110
00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,520
Speaker 1: It's kind of hard to do. It's situationally dependent.

1111
00:47:13,640 --> 00:47:15,480
Speaker 2: The other person's got to be leaning in and be ready.

1112
00:47:15,320 --> 00:47:16,920
Speaker 1: For Cowboy just kind of took it because I think

1113
00:47:16,960 --> 00:47:18,880
Speaker 1: he thought it was gonna stop, or he wasn't expecting

1114
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:21,200
Speaker 1: him to be as damaging as it was. You'll see

1115
00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,320
Speaker 1: people try it, but to me, it's like it's a

1116
00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:26,400
Speaker 1: little bit more than a foot stomp, which do almost nothing.

1117
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:28,360
Speaker 1: It's a little bit more than that, but it's not

1118
00:47:28,400 --> 00:47:29,960
Speaker 1: a whole lot more than that. It takes a very

1119
00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:34,920
Speaker 1: smooth operator and a very checked out opponent, but not

1120
00:47:35,000 --> 00:47:38,040
Speaker 1: fully checked in opponent, So slight tick here or there.

1121
00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:40,160
Speaker 1: I wouldn't expect a game change.

1122
00:47:39,960 --> 00:47:41,719
Speaker 2: No, I mean, Israe a lot of Sonya already went

1123
00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:43,439
Speaker 2: on Twitter and said he's inspired by it, he wants

1124
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:45,800
Speaker 2: to edit. I think the best thing that it showed

1125
00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 2: was that Connor knows he needs to evolve, and I'm

1126
00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:51,160
Speaker 2: sure in your Salt and Pepper video, Professor, you went

1127
00:47:51,200 --> 00:47:53,160
Speaker 2: back and showed that. But like remember early Connor, he

1128
00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 2: was doing a lot more than being a one dimensional

1129
00:47:55,040 --> 00:47:56,799
Speaker 2: guy who's trying to set up the left hand. I

1130
00:47:56,920 --> 00:47:58,640
Speaker 2: like to see him return to that, be a little

1131
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 2: bit more of a mixedial artist and working the kickboxing

1132
00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:03,560
Speaker 2: and working all of that. Probably never going to be

1133
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:05,840
Speaker 2: great on the ground, but I think the fact that

1134
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:07,600
Speaker 2: he's thirty one is still evolving that's a good sign.

1135
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:09,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, two things I would take away from it. One

1136
00:48:09,280 --> 00:48:12,480
Speaker 1: attacking in all positions. And two, you know, one of

1137
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:14,200
Speaker 1: the reasons why he got tired against Diaz the first

1138
00:48:14,200 --> 00:48:16,400
Speaker 1: time is because he's doing spinning wheel kicks and jumping

1139
00:48:16,400 --> 00:48:21,000
Speaker 1: switch kicks. A little shoulder shrug very economical, doesn't tire

1140
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:21,319
Speaker 1: you out.

1141
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,080
Speaker 2: We don't have anywhere else to talk about Cowboy the

1142
00:48:23,120 --> 00:48:23,400
Speaker 2: rest of the.

1143
00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:25,440
Speaker 1: Show, right, Uh No, what do you want to say.

1144
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:29,279
Speaker 2: So much for that beating that narrative that he can't

1145
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,480
Speaker 2: win the big one? I mean, that's that's a really

1146
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:32,319
Speaker 2: bad loss for him.

1147
00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:32,960
Speaker 1: Do you think so?

1148
00:48:33,080 --> 00:48:33,680
Speaker 2: I do think?

1149
00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 1: And do you use the part though?

1150
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,560
Speaker 2: Can we be super cynical? Well? Can we be super

1151
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 2: cynical and honest? Is he a does this kind of

1152
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:44,279
Speaker 2: just prove that he's a B level compiler and or

1153
00:48:44,400 --> 00:48:47,280
Speaker 2: is this or does this just prove he's MMA's Arturo Gotti,

1154
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,440
Speaker 2: which some people are trying to say, he's that blood

1155
00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 2: and guts warrior that we're going to love the character of.

1156
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,239
Speaker 2: But every time he got close to that upper level

1157
00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:55,040
Speaker 2: of the door, slam shot.

1158
00:48:55,080 --> 00:48:57,000
Speaker 1: Well, here's the thing about it, people are calling, here's what.

1159
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:58,759
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly how you want to label Let

1160
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:00,000
Speaker 1: me tell you how. I don't want to label it.

1161
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:04,040
Speaker 1: I really resent the idea that he's a choker. That

1162
00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:06,440
Speaker 1: part kills me. I don't think he's a choker. I

1163
00:49:06,600 --> 00:49:09,960
Speaker 1: just think against the A level opposition, the true A

1164
00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:13,480
Speaker 1: level guys. Yeah, he's probably not up there. If you

1165
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,440
Speaker 1: let me just do this royer quickly, if I can.

1166
00:49:15,880 --> 00:49:18,480
Speaker 1: It's one thing to be like, I'm capable of winning

1167
00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:22,320
Speaker 1: at this level, and another one is I'm not capable

1168
00:49:22,320 --> 00:49:24,759
Speaker 1: of winning because these guys are. They're just better, They're

1169
00:49:24,760 --> 00:49:26,520
Speaker 1: better than me. I think it's more of the latter.

1170
00:49:26,520 --> 00:49:28,600
Speaker 1: I think there's enough evidence to conclude at this point

1171
00:49:29,000 --> 00:49:32,120
Speaker 1: that the guys he's lost to. It tells you sort

1172
00:49:32,120 --> 00:49:35,440
Speaker 1: of where cowboys level is. Someone called him the most

1173
00:49:35,480 --> 00:49:38,520
Speaker 1: elite gatekeeper ever, but that's sort of what I'm saying.

1174
00:49:38,560 --> 00:49:40,920
Speaker 1: Listen to the names of guys he's lost to, Connor McGregor,

1175
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,479
Speaker 1: Justin Gage, Tony Ferguson, Leon Edwards, Darren Till, Robbie Lawler,

1176
00:49:44,520 --> 00:49:48,440
Speaker 1: Jorge Mazit, Al Hafel, Dosanjos twice, Anthony Pettis, Nate Diaz,

1177
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:52,800
Speaker 1: Benson Henderson twice, and Jamie Varner. Not a chump in there, dude.

1178
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:53,319
Speaker 2: That's a great point.

1179
00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:53,920
Speaker 1: Not a chump.

1180
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:56,440
Speaker 2: And you notice, even when we write him off, when

1181
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:58,400
Speaker 2: he gets back on sort of the B level, he

1182
00:49:58,440 --> 00:49:59,759
Speaker 2: destroys those guys, he takes care of them.

1183
00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:03,239
Speaker 1: And then to his wins James Krause nine millimeter, Ed Ratcliffe, he.

1184
00:50:03,160 --> 00:50:04,560
Speaker 2: Will I want to talk about his wins.

1185
00:50:04,560 --> 00:50:06,960
Speaker 1: I mean, I think is he rebounded against Jamie Varner,

1186
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:11,840
Speaker 1: well Fest, Charles Lavera, Jeremy Stevens, Wilvin Gelard, kJ Newnes,

1187
00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:15,800
Speaker 1: Evan Dunham, Jim Miller, Eddie Alvarez, Miles, Jerry Alex, OLIVERA,

1188
00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 1: Rick Story, Matt Brown, Mike Perry. I like Quinta not

1189
00:50:19,200 --> 00:50:19,760
Speaker 1: a chump.

1190
00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:23,000
Speaker 2: In there, okay, but but not a champ in the

1191
00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:25,360
Speaker 2: chap That's right. I think his best win is Eddie Alvarez.

1192
00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:28,759
Speaker 2: It was, and it was it was the way he

1193
00:50:28,760 --> 00:50:30,799
Speaker 2: did it was technical and all that I went. It

1194
00:50:30,840 --> 00:50:32,640
Speaker 2: was a big win to regate Regin the brand. But

1195
00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:35,279
Speaker 2: he doesn't have any much better than that outside like

1196
00:50:35,320 --> 00:50:36,040
Speaker 2: Benson Henderson.

1197
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:38,200
Speaker 1: No, those are probably his best wins. This is what

1198
00:50:38,239 --> 00:50:40,640
Speaker 1: I mean against true A level guys. He's probably not

1199
00:50:40,719 --> 00:50:42,279
Speaker 1: that guy. But I don't think he's one of those

1200
00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,480
Speaker 1: guys who was capable of winning and just fell apart.

1201
00:50:44,719 --> 00:50:45,960
Speaker 1: He just fought better guys.

1202
00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 2: I think he's got He's always had mindset problems.

1203
00:50:49,760 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 1: Luke, I don't believe. I think it's a bunch of

1204
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:52,439
Speaker 1: bullshit on side.

1205
00:50:52,440 --> 00:50:53,759
Speaker 2: I don't know how. I mean, how much does it

1206
00:50:53,840 --> 00:50:55,319
Speaker 2: change you as a fighter, what your goal is when

1207
00:50:55,360 --> 00:50:57,839
Speaker 2: you're actively telling everybody I don't care about titles. All

1208
00:50:57,840 --> 00:50:59,040
Speaker 2: I want to do is fight as many times in

1209
00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:00,319
Speaker 2: the year and get as many payday as I can

1210
00:51:00,400 --> 00:51:02,160
Speaker 2: and go buy more power tools and go up in

1211
00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,400
Speaker 2: the hills and ride my snowmobiles. And that's great if

1212
00:51:04,400 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 2: that's his passion. But what I'm saying at his potential potential,

1213
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 2: I don't know if he fully cashed in on it.

1214
00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:11,840
Speaker 1: Oh, I see what you mean, yeah, but that's one

1215
00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:13,400
Speaker 1: of those like chicken in the egg things, which is

1216
00:51:13,400 --> 00:51:16,759
Speaker 1: to say, maybe also being that happy outside the octagon. God, yes,

1217
00:51:16,800 --> 00:51:19,040
Speaker 1: maybe being the happy outside the octagon also makes him

1218
00:51:19,040 --> 00:51:21,239
Speaker 1: that happy as a person, which actually gets you more

1219
00:51:21,280 --> 00:51:22,719
Speaker 1: in the end. Or if you tried to leave this

1220
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,200
Speaker 1: sort of like not ascetic lifestyle. But he was so

1221
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:28,239
Speaker 1: hardcore focused about getting better, he'd get bored. He just

1222
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,200
Speaker 1: couldn't do it. Like to be able to get what

1223
00:51:31,080 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 1: you get made off. Not even the very best fighters

1224
00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,759
Speaker 1: can do that. It takes a certain kind of real intense,

1225
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:41,439
Speaker 1: hardcore focus where you have to be able to put

1226
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:44,920
Speaker 1: off most of the rest of your life. If Seroni

1227
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:46,880
Speaker 1: would be unhappy doing that, I don't know that he

1228
00:51:46,920 --> 00:51:49,080
Speaker 1: would be a better fighter. That's what mine was doing

1229
00:51:49,160 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 1: last week.

1230
00:51:49,520 --> 00:51:50,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's great.

1231
00:51:50,040 --> 00:51:52,799
Speaker 1: It sounds like I watched Alien versus Predator this week

1232
00:51:52,800 --> 00:51:54,160
Speaker 1: and it sounds like one of those things out of

1233
00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:54,479
Speaker 1: the eggs.

1234
00:51:54,480 --> 00:51:56,160
Speaker 2: Well, do you see him? Did you see cowboy dressed

1235
00:51:56,160 --> 00:51:58,120
Speaker 2: like a Confederate Army general on the way into the

1236
00:51:58,160 --> 00:51:59,680
Speaker 2: fight and it's the son who was in the same

1237
00:51:59,719 --> 00:52:00,319
Speaker 2: suit it was.

1238
00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:03,200
Speaker 1: Did he did he surrender it? Appomatics? All right? Yeah,

1239
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:08,479
Speaker 1: question three from Traveling Craft Enthusiast, is Dana White saying

1240
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:11,800
Speaker 1: Nimber Gamadov is the next fight to bring Jorge to

1241
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,160
Speaker 1: the negotiating table quicker and maybe less in his power.

1242
00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:16,440
Speaker 1: Maybe was already booked for her match, and Dana is

1243
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:19,160
Speaker 1: too smart to not realize the monetary potential of a

1244
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:22,560
Speaker 1: BMF fight between Connor and Jorge. Yeah, we've sort of

1245
00:52:22,560 --> 00:52:23,920
Speaker 1: been over this this last thing. I'd say this. A

1246
00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,600
Speaker 1: lot of people read into get the intention of certain things, like, oh,

1247
00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:28,280
Speaker 1: Dana White's going to say this to get this reaction.

1248
00:52:28,440 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 2: Well he does, well, Okay, and does you notice Paula

1249
00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,680
Speaker 2: Costa got brought back into the conversation this past week.

1250
00:52:32,920 --> 00:52:35,640
Speaker 1: In part, that's true, but it's also a little conspiratorial,

1251
00:52:35,719 --> 00:52:37,839
Speaker 1: like he probably actually just wants to see that fight.

1252
00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,160
Speaker 1: He probably believes that's the fight. Maybe he's not even

1253
00:52:40,200 --> 00:52:44,200
Speaker 1: thinking about it. But he also said after asking beat Lawler,

1254
00:52:44,440 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 1: oh we're going to run that back, and then they

1255
00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:48,640
Speaker 1: just didn't run it back. So whatever he says may

1256
00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:51,200
Speaker 1: not actually happen at all. Anything else you want to add.

1257
00:52:51,160 --> 00:52:53,880
Speaker 2: Nope, all right, you have another job to get to.

1258
00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:57,680
Speaker 1: I'm sure having a couple more jobs uh Dar Mude

1259
00:52:57,960 --> 00:53:01,280
Speaker 1: Ward says, although a lot of Romero has been confirmed

1260
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:04,960
Speaker 1: for March, would Connor headlining that card give out of

1261
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 1: Signya an even bigger push?

1262
00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:11,000
Speaker 2: Obviously it would, but that's it's you know, you're you're

1263
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:12,799
Speaker 2: almost hurting yourself business wise doing that.

1264
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:14,879
Speaker 1: Why would you be hurting yourself.

1265
00:53:14,560 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 2: Because out of Soignya, I think is ready to headline

1266
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:18,600
Speaker 2: his own card and do his own big business. So

1267
00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:21,080
Speaker 2: h Connor's a separate pay as we saw with this card,

1268
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:24,080
Speaker 2: as we saw which was I'm sorry two forty six,

1269
00:53:24,080 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 2: which was a Baron undercard. You're you're selling just Connor.

1270
00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,359
Speaker 2: I don't think you're gonna have two title fights below

1271
00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:30,080
Speaker 2: Connor ever again.

1272
00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:32,560
Speaker 1: So I'm always of two minds. On the one hand,

1273
00:53:32,640 --> 00:53:34,560
Speaker 1: it's like, if Connor is going to compete, you don't

1274
00:53:34,560 --> 00:53:37,040
Speaker 1: want any second act there because you're gonna get overshadowed.

1275
00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:39,359
Speaker 1: On the other hand, it's a Connor card, You're never

1276
00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 1: going to have more eyeballs, and it's a bit of

1277
00:53:41,000 --> 00:53:42,319
Speaker 1: a chicken in the eg thing. I don't know which

1278
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,880
Speaker 1: is which. I'll say this, like they've put Joanni and

1279
00:53:44,920 --> 00:53:46,560
Speaker 1: j check on as many they put her on. I

1280
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 1: think a couple of Connor cards. It has certainly turned

1281
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:51,319
Speaker 1: into a bit of a hardcore fans delight. I don't

1282
00:53:51,320 --> 00:53:54,239
Speaker 1: know if you ever got past that, but you know

1283
00:53:54,440 --> 00:53:56,880
Speaker 1: she was. She was ready to headline. And also Tyron

1284
00:53:56,920 --> 00:53:58,840
Speaker 1: Woodley was ready to headline. He was on the undercard

1285
00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,960
Speaker 1: undercard of uh UFC two o five. So the fact

1286
00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:04,840
Speaker 1: is you're ready to headline, to me, wouldn't be a

1287
00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:08,000
Speaker 1: reason not to do it being overshadowed if you really

1288
00:54:08,040 --> 00:54:09,719
Speaker 1: believe that, that would be.

1289
00:54:10,200 --> 00:54:12,799
Speaker 2: Dude, he's not gonna fight this soon. I know, even

1290
00:54:12,840 --> 00:54:15,839
Speaker 2: with him wanting to, it's not gonna happen. I'm telling

1291
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:18,719
Speaker 2: you that's not gonna happen. Dude. You're not gonna risk

1292
00:54:18,960 --> 00:54:21,960
Speaker 2: these two potential paydays of Jorge or or Habib. There

1293
00:54:21,960 --> 00:54:24,480
Speaker 2: will be no just engaged the interim fight. There will

1294
00:54:24,480 --> 00:54:27,000
Speaker 2: be nothing. You're You're you're gonna They're gonna wait to

1295
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:29,600
Speaker 2: see what happens with with Habib and then you try

1296
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:32,759
Speaker 2: to make either fight for for August. That's what you're doing, dude,

1297
00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:33,560
Speaker 2: that's what you're doing.

1298
00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:34,600
Speaker 1: Last week.

1299
00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 2: I've ran many successful mm A promotions. Heavy Yeah, you

1300
00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:39,960
Speaker 2: can call me Bijorn Coker.

1301
00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,759
Speaker 1: Uh that's a terrible name. All right, let's go to

1302
00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 1: tink Tinkin' tats and Jack's all right, what do you

1303
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,920
Speaker 1: think about the tweets that came out of Usman's account

1304
00:54:55,000 --> 00:54:55,640
Speaker 1: on fight night?

1305
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:56,120
Speaker 2: Wow?

1306
00:54:56,560 --> 00:54:59,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, they say it was hacked, but a lot believe

1307
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,600
Speaker 1: was Ali. No, a lot is conn survey that was done.

1308
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:07,359
Speaker 1: It was Connor love the show. Uh yeah, there was some.

1309
00:55:07,480 --> 00:55:08,719
Speaker 1: There was a lot of N words in that. There

1310
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:10,080
Speaker 1: was a lot of bad. That was a lot of words,

1311
00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:12,080
Speaker 1: a lot of sexual assault threats.

1312
00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,400
Speaker 2: Here's what's crazy though, the second it happened and everybody's

1313
00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:17,080
Speaker 2: you know, people are texting, people are texting me, go,

1314
00:55:17,080 --> 00:55:19,440
Speaker 2: oh my got you see this whatever? And my response

1315
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 2: was wow, that's awful. Dot dot dot hell of a

1316
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:27,040
Speaker 2: way to promote a fight. If it was, I'm not

1317
00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,319
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna sit here and say I agree with

1318
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,919
Speaker 2: Connor that planned. I'm saying, even if it is a hack,

1319
00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:36,600
Speaker 2: oh my god, even if it is a hack, Usman

1320
00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:40,279
Speaker 2: is now in the conversation. Usman's in the conversation when

1321
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:42,640
Speaker 2: in reality he has no business to be. Why Because

1322
00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:44,840
Speaker 2: that's the most difficult fight of all of them. For Connor,

1323
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 2: it's the one that would sell the least out of

1324
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:50,120
Speaker 2: all of them. And who's the one name that was

1325
00:55:50,160 --> 00:55:52,799
Speaker 2: uttered inside the cage after the win? The one name

1326
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,880
Speaker 2: I didn't hear Habib. I didn't hear Jorge. I heard Usman.

1327
00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:56,879
Speaker 1: What do you say?

1328
00:55:57,640 --> 00:55:59,120
Speaker 2: He said, I want to fight them all? And then

1329
00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 2: he mentioned Usman and Uman's like, you know, bring it up.

1330
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:02,640
Speaker 1: I thought he mentioned the guy with the house code

1331
00:56:03,200 --> 00:56:04,279
Speaker 1: and then the guy on the pane. I didn't he

1332
00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:04,640
Speaker 1: even mentioned.

1333
00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:06,400
Speaker 2: I thought I heard him. I mean, I'm on, I

1334
00:56:06,440 --> 00:56:07,960
Speaker 2: didn't see the badcast. I'm only going what I heard

1335
00:56:07,960 --> 00:56:09,239
Speaker 2: in the arena. If I missed it, I missed it.

1336
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:11,720
Speaker 1: I thought he mentioned Jorge and then he mentioned Paul Felder.

1337
00:56:11,760 --> 00:56:14,680
Speaker 1: He didn't mention Uh, he didn't mention Kamaru.

1338
00:56:14,880 --> 00:56:16,120
Speaker 2: I thought, I did.

1339
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:19,239
Speaker 1: Okay, here here's the point, dude. I've seen people being like, oh,

1340
00:56:19,280 --> 00:56:22,320
Speaker 1: it could have been Ali Abdalazis, who does run many

1341
00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:24,279
Speaker 1: or not run. But it certainly has access to many

1342
00:56:24,320 --> 00:56:27,279
Speaker 1: of his fighter's accounts. But a couple of things. I'm

1343
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,360
Speaker 1: not demeaning Ali for this, but he does speak English

1344
00:56:29,400 --> 00:56:34,080
Speaker 1: as a second language, while hold on, my mom spoke

1345
00:56:34,120 --> 00:56:37,399
Speaker 1: English as a second language. My wife, No, she's not, she's

1346
00:56:37,400 --> 00:56:39,720
Speaker 1: from Beirut. But my wife speaks this is a second language.

1347
00:56:39,719 --> 00:56:42,360
Speaker 1: It's not a demeaning thing, but it will reveal itself

1348
00:56:42,400 --> 00:56:44,239
Speaker 1: over time in the way the language is written. I

1349
00:56:44,239 --> 00:56:46,520
Speaker 1: didn't detect this person who was the person who was

1350
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:49,279
Speaker 1: riding those tweets was a native speaker. Number one. Number two.

1351
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:53,160
Speaker 1: More importantly, dude, they were releasing his bank information. Why

1352
00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,960
Speaker 1: the fuck would they do that? If it was why

1353
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:58,520
Speaker 1: would Ali put it makes no sense to me. Now,

1354
00:56:58,520 --> 00:57:00,399
Speaker 1: maybe Connor didn't see that point he all the ones.

1355
00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,399
Speaker 2: I'm not saying I believe in the conspiracy. I'm saying

1356
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:04,200
Speaker 2: either way, it's a hell of a way to get

1357
00:57:04,239 --> 00:57:05,320
Speaker 2: a tomorrow.

1358
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,160
Speaker 1: Do you believe the conspiracy or not.

1359
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:10,600
Speaker 2: I don't believe it was done conspiratorial. If it was,

1360
00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:12,399
Speaker 2: I would believe it. It's not out of the realm

1361
00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:15,759
Speaker 2: of possibility. But I'm saying either way, it's actually not

1362
00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 2: a horrific thing for tomorrow in the long.

1363
00:57:17,960 --> 00:57:20,120
Speaker 1: Run, not in that sense. But I don't think that

1364
00:57:20,200 --> 00:57:23,080
Speaker 1: Tomorrow is behind it. I don't think that Ali is

1365
00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:27,200
Speaker 1: behind it. I just think his shit got hacked and

1366
00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:30,400
Speaker 1: that's the end of it. Some awful language, Luca, certainly,

1367
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:33,600
Speaker 1: I mean language that you used pre show what is this?

1368
00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:34,439
Speaker 2: What is this?

1369
00:57:36,280 --> 00:57:39,680
Speaker 1: Okay, that's it for us, my friend. Oh hey, it

1370
00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:42,200
Speaker 1: is your turn. Now you don't have the earpiece in no, well,

1371
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:44,280
Speaker 1: so you're not communicating with Jay. By the way, I

1372
00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:49,360

01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:01,200
Speaker 2: had an issue with his hand. We're only three. He

1526
01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:03,480
Speaker 2: had three knuckles or something, and he's just figuring out

1527
01:04:03,480 --> 01:04:05,240
Speaker 2: how to become a power puncher late in his career.

1528
01:04:05,240 --> 01:04:06,080
Speaker 2: He said, coldful of the hell.

1529
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:07,640
Speaker 1: First, I'm not sure I should tell the story. You

1530
01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:09,600
Speaker 1: know who almost lost a finger this past year and

1531
01:04:09,640 --> 01:04:11,960
Speaker 1: almost had the knuckle removed. No, sorry, he was gonna

1532
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:13,280
Speaker 1: lose a finger because he was gonna be able to

1533
01:04:13,320 --> 01:04:17,400
Speaker 1: keep the knuckle. Deliat Who this is? Anthony Smith? Remember

1534
01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 1: that injury had to his hand he had. The surgery

1535
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:21,480
Speaker 1: went bad. He had to get a redone and his

1536
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:24,160
Speaker 1: finger got infected. He almost lost the finger and he

1537
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:25,800
Speaker 1: told them just take the finger as long as you

1538
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:27,720
Speaker 1: can leave the knuckle, and they were about to. There

1539
01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:30,000
Speaker 1: were twenty four hours out from it, and then another

1540
01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,840
Speaker 1: surgeon intervened and he didn't. But he almost lost a

1541
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:34,320
Speaker 1: finger this past year. How about that?

1542
01:04:34,360 --> 01:04:37,000
Speaker 2: Wow? Yeah, I'll give him one. All right here, Luke,

Speaker 2: Faces of Death edition MK Ultra. All right, there you go.

1629
01:08:04,560 --> 01:08:05,280
Speaker 2: Have you seen that shit?

1630
01:08:05,400 --> 01:08:08,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, I've seen that shit. Now time for odds and ends, Sir,

1631
01:08:08,560 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 1: What did we miss? What's one thing that happened in

1632
01:08:11,040 --> 01:08:12,200
Speaker 1: the Combat Sports Well.

1633
01:08:12,120 --> 01:08:14,720
Speaker 2: We talked last episode about how this February twenty second

1634
01:08:14,720 --> 01:08:17,720
Speaker 2: Tyson Fury Deontay Wilder rematch is gonna happen double pay

1635
01:08:17,720 --> 01:08:19,680
Speaker 2: per view, double network, and they hadn't done anything to

1636
01:08:19,680 --> 01:08:21,800
Speaker 2: promote it. Well, they finally had a press conference last

1637
01:08:21,800 --> 01:08:24,759
Speaker 2: week in LA to kick it off. I know there's

1638
01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:26,880
Speaker 2: only so much you can take from an interview, right

1639
01:08:26,920 --> 01:08:29,160
Speaker 2: from all that, there's only so much you can take.

1640
01:08:29,600 --> 01:08:32,400
Speaker 2: But when I watched this thing, I feel like Deontay

1641
01:08:32,439 --> 01:08:36,080
Speaker 2: Wilder is in a much more focused place. If we

1642
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,160
Speaker 2: are going to score this press conference and try to

1643
01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,560
Speaker 2: feel what we can learn from it, I'll tell you

1644
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:43,040
Speaker 2: what Wilder's doing this time around, not getting caught up

1645
01:08:43,040 --> 01:08:45,240
Speaker 2: in the mental wars and games and traps that Tyson

1646
01:08:45,280 --> 01:08:47,720
Speaker 2: Fury sets. He's cold and calculated like he is in

1647
01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,960
Speaker 2: the ring, and I feel like he has some kind

1648
01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:52,160
Speaker 2: of advantage entering this fight.

1649
01:08:52,240 --> 01:08:54,240
Speaker 1: Here's the biggest question we had about the deserved question

1650
01:08:54,280 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 1: is Tyson Fury is still calling him a dawser?

1651
01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,840
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, on and off? Yeah, you know what that

1652
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:00,799
Speaker 2: answer that means.

1653
01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:02,160
Speaker 1: It's like a vagrant.

1654
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:04,760
Speaker 2: THESS his Department of Social Services. So you're basically calling

1655
01:09:04,800 --> 01:09:08,880
Speaker 2: somebody like a like a yeah. Yeah. The question was

1656
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:10,400
Speaker 2: after that first fight, right, it was fifty to fifty,

1657
01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:11,880
Speaker 2: It was basically even. It ended up in a draw,

1658
01:09:12,040 --> 01:09:14,960
Speaker 2: though Tyson Fury got screwed. Is who can improve from that?

1659
01:09:15,080 --> 01:09:17,400
Speaker 2: Who did worse? Was it the fact that Tyson Fury

1660
01:09:17,439 --> 01:09:19,080
Speaker 2: had just come back or was it the fact that

1661
01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:21,639
Speaker 2: Wylder admittedly was Darren Headlights for most of that fight.

1662
01:09:21,680 --> 01:09:23,240
Speaker 2: He took him a while to figure it out. I

1663
01:09:23,240 --> 01:09:25,960
Speaker 2: think Deontay Wilders had the better year in terms of

1664
01:09:25,960 --> 01:09:30,360
Speaker 2: fights that mattered in certainly two sensational knockouts. I've got

1665
01:09:30,400 --> 01:09:31,799
Speaker 2: some fears about Tyson Fury.

1666
01:09:32,160 --> 01:09:33,040
Speaker 1: It's changed tight.

1667
01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:35,840
Speaker 2: If you go back on his career, it's always sort

1668
01:09:35,840 --> 01:09:39,120
Speaker 2: of been when he's motivated, he looked insanely good. When

1669
01:09:39,120 --> 01:09:41,160
Speaker 2: he's motivated to get over that mountain against Clitscho and

1670
01:09:41,560 --> 01:09:44,000
Speaker 2: prove everybody wrong. When he's motivated to come back against

1671
01:09:44,040 --> 01:09:47,799
Speaker 2: Wilder and finish off this redemption story. But in between

1672
01:09:48,240 --> 01:09:50,000
Speaker 2: I've seen him put on waight, I've seen him look

1673
01:09:50,080 --> 01:09:52,719
Speaker 2: not so impressive, and when Steve Conningham dropped him twenty thirteen,

1674
01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:54,559
Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of that. I think this year

1675
01:09:54,680 --> 01:09:56,719
Speaker 2: was certainly a step back. Right he goes to ESPN

1676
01:09:56,760 --> 01:09:58,840
Speaker 2: for the brand recognition. I feel like it was almost

1677
01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:00,720
Speaker 2: a step back in the ring. Obviously he can put

1678
01:10:00,760 --> 01:10:02,439
Speaker 2: it all together on fight night and what I'm saying

1679
01:10:02,439 --> 01:10:04,559
Speaker 2: could be muted, but I just picked up on some

1680
01:10:04,640 --> 01:10:07,599
Speaker 2: things there. I don't think he has that same internal focus.

1681
01:10:07,600 --> 01:10:10,040
Speaker 2: This right around changing trainers last minute is certainly a

1682
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:12,960
Speaker 2: red flag. I feel like when you you're not coming

1683
01:10:13,000 --> 01:10:16,000
Speaker 2: in there, it's wilder with all your ducks in a row,

1684
01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:17,960
Speaker 2: you could be obviously setting yourself up for a disaster.

1685
01:10:17,960 --> 01:10:19,479
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do it. Call an audible. I'm was supposed

1686
01:10:19,479 --> 01:10:20,800
Speaker 1: to do one on Jay Rock. I'll just skip it.

1687
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:26,200
Speaker 1: Jay Rock did lose, But how about rocksand Mode Faery winning?

1688
01:10:26,240 --> 01:10:27,720
Speaker 1: She was she was like a huge I think the

1689
01:10:27,720 --> 01:10:30,519
Speaker 1: biggest underdog of minus eight to fifty were for basically

1690
01:10:30,520 --> 01:10:32,519
Speaker 1: Barber or plus eight fifty for her. I'm not sure

1691
01:10:32,560 --> 01:10:33,320
Speaker 1: who had the plus N.

1692
01:10:33,640 --> 01:10:34,799
Speaker 2: Barber was minus one thousand.

1693
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:38,280
Speaker 1: It was minus one thousands, and I'll be honest, not

1694
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:39,920
Speaker 1: that I said that those odds were fair, but I

1695
01:10:39,920 --> 01:10:41,679
Speaker 1: was like, yeah, it's probably gonna win. Someone was asking

1696
01:10:41,680 --> 01:10:43,160
Speaker 1: me for betting picks. I'm like, don't do it, but

1697
01:10:43,240 --> 01:10:46,240
Speaker 1: your safest bet is probably this one. Whoops, there you go.

1698
01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,200
Speaker 1: First of all, never do that kind of thing. Second

1699
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:52,679
Speaker 1: of all, look, Barbara was clearly injured, and it clearly

1700
01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:54,400
Speaker 1: played a role in her performance. But there were some

1701
01:10:54,439 --> 01:10:56,559
Speaker 1: things she did on the ground where if it was

1702
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:00,000
Speaker 1: a function of like losing focus because you're injured, no harm,

1703
01:11:00,080 --> 01:11:02,600
Speaker 1: no foul, But there were some methods of control she

1704
01:11:02,680 --> 01:11:06,760
Speaker 1: was employing underneath that were not particularly good. That gave

1705
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:09,559
Speaker 1: me a little bit of like a someone else puts

1706
01:11:09,560 --> 01:11:12,959
Speaker 1: you there. Yes, I don't like there was real amateurs,

1707
01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:14,680
Speaker 1: to be quite honest with. Yes, So I was a

1708
01:11:14,680 --> 01:11:16,479
Speaker 1: little bit concerned. Again, if she was injured and now

1709
01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:18,320
Speaker 1: was she was just trying to hold on. That's a complain.

1710
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:20,559
Speaker 2: I mean, she was gritty. She was on brand for

1711
01:11:20,600 --> 01:11:22,439
Speaker 2: her grittiness to want to continue. And I really felt

1712
01:11:22,439 --> 01:11:24,880
Speaker 2: that even in that third round, like I'm thinking, should

1713
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:25,320
Speaker 2: they stop it?

1714
01:11:25,360 --> 01:11:27,200
Speaker 1: No, she probably still has a chance to score. If

1715
01:11:27,240 --> 01:11:29,000
Speaker 1: someone asked me, should her corner thrown the towel. I

1716
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,000
Speaker 1: think it's a difficult question to answer. I will say

1717
01:11:31,000 --> 01:11:32,479
Speaker 1: this because it went to the ground and even she

1718
01:11:32,520 --> 01:11:35,240
Speaker 1: was reversing. Probably not. You can just survive on the

1719
01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:37,080
Speaker 1: ground that way, if you were standing and falling over

1720
01:11:37,120 --> 01:11:37,639
Speaker 1: and over.

1721
01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:40,559
Speaker 2: Again, that benefit long term from this loss.

1722
01:11:40,600 --> 01:11:43,599
Speaker 1: I absolutely, she's she's gonna she's she's so young, she's

1723
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,400
Speaker 1: gonna be great. But it was one of these things

1724
01:11:45,439 --> 01:11:47,800
Speaker 1: where it was like, dude, John Jones, is do you

1725
01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:50,320
Speaker 1: know legacy is a hard thing to chase. Don't worry

1726
01:11:50,320 --> 01:11:52,920
Speaker 1: about that being on your own path. Also, when the

1727
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:55,760
Speaker 1: fight was over, I was like, can we let rock

1728
01:11:55,800 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 1: sand talk first?

1729
01:11:58,840 --> 01:12:01,240
Speaker 2: Shades of force, s griffinity or tease too right?

1730
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,200
Speaker 1: A little bit there, So I'll just say this Varoxemoa

1731
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:06,720
Speaker 1: Faery dude a martial artist, A martial artist who just

1732
01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:10,439
Speaker 1: never stops trying to get better. Don't sleep on her.

1733
01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:11,879
Speaker 1: She is a capable competitor.

1734
01:12:11,920 --> 01:12:15,200
Speaker 2: She's very durable, she's very gritty, she's she's.

1735
01:12:15,360 --> 01:12:17,240
Speaker 1: Leit good on the ground, Like, can we say that loud?

1736
01:12:17,280 --> 01:12:20,240
Speaker 1: Like she's good on the ground. Not a great apocate.

1737
01:12:20,280 --> 01:12:21,720
Speaker 1: If Mason had one list and if she had won

1738
01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:24,360
Speaker 1: it by stoppage. She was fighting Chefchenko this calendar year.

1739
01:12:24,360 --> 01:12:26,439
Speaker 1: There's no question about it. There's nobody in the division.

1740
01:12:26,439 --> 01:12:29,160
Speaker 1: Even Dana told Aaron Brownstead her I can't keep her away.

1741
01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:30,800
Speaker 1: She's texting and the crazy. I'm afraid of her. I

1742
01:12:30,800 --> 01:12:32,280
Speaker 1: got to give it to her. She's not ready for that.

1743
01:12:32,320 --> 01:12:33,080
Speaker 1: This is perfect for her.

1744
01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:35,439
Speaker 2: Shout out the front of the program, Brian kelleher coming

1745
01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:38,720
Speaker 2: back after missing all of twenty nineteen with injury. Big

1746
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:41,439
Speaker 2: win for the for the bandam weight right there and.

1747
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,599
Speaker 1: Fellow MMA beat panelist, there's hope for us yet, Brian Camp.

1748
01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:46,479
Speaker 2: He shouted me out there in person. He's you know,

1749
01:12:46,479 --> 01:12:48,439
Speaker 2: he's a big Luke fan. Yeah, that was good. And

1750
01:12:48,479 --> 01:12:50,559
Speaker 2: you mentioned that Julian j Rock Williams lost his one

1751
01:12:50,600 --> 01:12:55,559
Speaker 2: fifty four title. Jason Rosario was a plus. I'm sorry,

1752
01:12:55,880 --> 01:12:58,960
Speaker 2: Jay Rock was minus twenty five hundred. You're shitting I'm

1753
01:12:59,000 --> 01:13:03,160
Speaker 2: not shitting you. Jason Rozi was plus I think nine

1754
01:13:03,240 --> 01:13:05,800
Speaker 2: hundred yea. And this was not a one punch caught

1755
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:09,800
Speaker 2: on a five round destruction he got in. Here's the thing.

1756
01:13:09,840 --> 01:13:11,280
Speaker 2: He showed a great chant because he took some bombs

1757
01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:13,559
Speaker 2: from Jay Rock, but he got inside on Jay Rock,

1758
01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:15,839
Speaker 2: which is kind of interesting because that's the strategy Williams

1759
01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,759
Speaker 2: used to beat Jared Hurd. He out Jared Herded Swift

1760
01:13:18,800 --> 01:13:20,599
Speaker 2: heard he got on the inside and just outdid him.

1761
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:24,160
Speaker 2: And I give Jason Rosario. I panned this this fight.

1762
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:26,040
Speaker 2: I didn't think it was worthy of a fox Man event.

1763
01:13:26,040 --> 01:13:27,400
Speaker 2: I didn't think this was the right fight. It was

1764
01:13:27,400 --> 01:13:29,639
Speaker 2: a homecoming opportunity for Jay Rock. It was all about,

1765
01:13:29,680 --> 01:13:32,760
Speaker 2: let's give him his moment, and Banana over here took

1766
01:13:32,800 --> 01:13:35,760
Speaker 2: the damn moment and he did it. He did it

1767
01:13:35,760 --> 01:13:37,599
Speaker 2: the damn right way, got inside and he just broke

1768
01:13:37,680 --> 01:13:41,840
Speaker 2: him down systematically. This division is wild. Jamelle Tralos back,

1769
01:13:41,960 --> 01:13:44,479
Speaker 2: Tony Harrison still Linger and Erstendy. Laura is still lingering.

1770
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:47,719
Speaker 2: Jared heard trying to come back this weekend. Everybody's under PBC.

1771
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:48,680
Speaker 2: It's going to be fun this year.

01:13:50,560 --> 01:13:54,639
Speaker 1: So there you have it. Say what Jay? Oh yeah,

Speaker 2: that is disgusting. I didn't know he didn't offer drugs.

01:14:36,720 --> 01:14:38,200
Speaker 2: You know, everyone else is like, oh, my guy did
