Resume review Colby Covington, Luke Thomas 89 00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 2: and you know, i'd have to say it's it's it's 90 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 2: arguably one of our better ones, Luke. I mean, you 91 00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 2: kind of mailed it in a little but besides that, 92 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: you know, BC brought it. 93 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm glad to hear that, glad to hear you feel 94 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 1: that way. All right with that, it's a go ahead. 95 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 2: Well, Luke, before you throw to the show, okay and 96 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 2: talk about much more serious topics, including gunfire. You know 97 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,479 Speaker 2: they say there used to be a curse. I do 98 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 2: want to show you this tweet that one of our 99 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 2: as you would say, intrepid donks came up with here 100 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 2: this morning. Todd Tuomi says, technically, MMA resume reviews without 101 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 2: Chuck Mindenhall are undefeated, undisputed eight and oh with seven finishes. Luke, 102 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: that that is true, bro. I'm not trying to move 103 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,720 Speaker 2: the gold post on you, but that that is true. 104 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 1: Not trying to move the goalpost, but you're gonna move 105 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,640 Speaker 1: him just the same, all right. So that's the new one, 106 00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,839 Speaker 1: which I guess, no matter what happens here, wouldn't confirm 107 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 1: or deny since Chuck was well, I guess if it 108 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 1: actually if it breaks the curse with Chuck, then it 109 00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: would be the new one. All right. Good to know, 110 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,719 Speaker 1: Good to know that that is apparently the new line 111 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 1: in the sand. I guess we'll see how things go 112 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:16,839 Speaker 1: on Saturday. 113 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:19,920 Speaker 2: So that means put all of your money on game 114 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,720 Speaker 2: bread this weekend. That's what that actually means. 115 00:05:21,720 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: Okay, that's what that means, Luke. 116 00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 2: Okay, I'm just the facilitator here, all right. 117 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: All right, Well that out of the way. Let's get 118 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: to topic number one here and kick off the show. 119 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 1: King Velaskaz had the former UFC Heavyweight Champion of the World, 120 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 1: former I think for a very brief stint anyway, WWE 121 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 1: professional wrestler. He has been arrested and charged with attempted murder. 122 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,480 Speaker 1: It is crazy beyond description, but it is the reality. 123 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: Here is what we know. It is all quite basic 124 00:05:48,600 --> 00:05:51,359 Speaker 1: at this level. There's a lot we don't He was 125 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,520 Speaker 1: booked into the Santa Clara, which is of course in 126 00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,040 Speaker 1: California County Jail, according to the San Jose Police Department. 127 00:05:57,080 --> 00:06:01,280 Speaker 1: On Tuesday morning, there was a shooting at the intersection 128 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: of Monterey Highway and Bailey Avenue, according to media reports, 129 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,680 Speaker 1: and we should be very clear about that again. I 130 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 1: want to caution. The remains a lot that is unknown 131 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 1: about this. Velasquez is charged with allegedly shooting at this 132 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: vehicle in the vehicle where three people, one of which 133 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,840 Speaker 1: was somebody who was accused and has been charged again. 134 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:25,599 Speaker 1: They are technically, like Velasquez, innocent until proven guilty, but 135 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:30,320 Speaker 1: has been charged with allegedly molesting one of Velaskeiz's family members. 136 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 1: Now we don't know who that family member is. That 137 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: person is a minor, so they have not been identified. 138 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 1: So this looks to be I'm sure some people are 139 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: quite happy with the motivations behind it, or at least 140 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 1: not bothered by them, but this looks to be something 141 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: of a vigilante hit, if you can call it that. BC. 142 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: I don't know what there is to really say about 143 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 1: this except that the gentleman, who is the person in 144 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 1: question who has been arrested for alleged molestation, he was 145 00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 1: not hit. The person who was hitting the car was 146 00:06:57,279 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 1: the stepfather, although he did not according to a police 147 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: reports and what has been reported in the MEDIABC has 148 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 1: not retained any serious injuries. So that person, well everyone 149 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:10,720 Speaker 1: in the vehicle is more or less physically okay. Velaskaz 150 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: as we speak I think is to be a rain 151 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 1: today and remains behind bars. BC. I don't know what 152 00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: to ask you about this except to say, isn't this 153 00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: one of the most insane things you've ever seen in 154 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:19,120 Speaker 1: your life? 155 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, crazy? And this escalated fast when 156 00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 2: we first heard the report, it was like there was 157 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 2: a shooting involved in kaan Velaskaz and we know nothing more. 158 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 2: And to your greater point, a lot of this is 159 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 2: alleged or sourced or reported, so you know, let's wait 160 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 2: a little bit more on full judgments. Well, the reaction 161 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: is shocking, not just given Kanes. I want to say 162 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:44,560 Speaker 2: good standing reputation and relaxed on camera demeanor, although that 163 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 2: obviously can mean nothing in a very tense life situation. 164 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 2: You know, we wondered right away or do we have 165 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,400 Speaker 2: a like a Marvin Harrison situation or even worse, Luke, 166 00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 2: do we have a Aaron Hernandez situation here? But I 167 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 2: think the tide of public reaction turned heavily once the 168 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 2: few details that we have began to come out in 169 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,400 Speaker 2: terms of the potential motivation, and then, Luke, you end 170 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,200 Speaker 2: up finding out that the accuser, the accused here in 171 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 2: this case works at the I'm sorry, lives at the 172 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 2: house that the daycare in which his mother owns and operates, 173 00:08:19,520 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 2: you know, is the place where Velasquez, his family member is. 174 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: But Luke, before we found out all those details, and 175 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 2: before we found out one other important detail being reported 176 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: that the molestation happened upwards of one hundred times, is 177 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 2: that when I saw that mugshot right there, mm hmm, 178 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 2: my first thought was, damn, like's there's no remorse there. 179 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: That doesn't look like an accident. And I think before 180 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:50,800 Speaker 2: we knew the details, we started to ask ourselves what 181 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 2: really happened there. And I think Luke, once I found 182 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 2: out the details, I'm certainly certainly not going to come 183 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: out and say there's a justified reaction from Kane. This 184 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:05,079 Speaker 2: is you know, street justice, this is what men do, 185 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 2: This is you know, a lot of things like that. 186 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 2: But I will tell you this, Dave Alscas is a 187 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 2: real dude, whether you live by that code or not. 188 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 2: And Luke, I don't particularly subscribe to this exact code 189 00:09:18,520 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 2: of reaction. But there's some Teddy Atlas putting the gun 190 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 2: in Mike Tyson's air type of shit like this is 191 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:27,959 Speaker 2: the real shit. And I think, while I won't stand 192 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:33,000 Speaker 2: here and gratify, like you know, you know, like justify 193 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 2: it or or or put Kane's decision on a pedestal 194 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 2: because of the potential fallout for so many others. I 195 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 2: think you have to say this. You understand it, You 196 00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 2: understand it. I'll talk for myself and then you can respond, Cain, 197 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 2: I understand it one hundred percent. And what could be 198 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 2: the fallout for Kane? I mean, you know, not only 199 00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 2: could he have taken the live of this accused guy 200 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: and we saw the stepfather getting hit, I mean he 201 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,200 Speaker 2: could have taken other lives in making a move this reckless. 202 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 2: And he also, Luke, could be taking his own life 203 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 2: and putting himself behind bars and affecting his own family 204 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,000 Speaker 2: and all the fallout that comes with it. But I 205 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 2: get it, Luke, And I mean, we don't really live 206 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:24,040 Speaker 2: in an eye for eye society, although good good lord 207 00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:24,559 Speaker 2: are we are? 208 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:24,719 Speaker 1: We? 209 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 2: You know, hurtling closer to World War three? I have 210 00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 2: no idea right now based on the headlines, you know, politically, 211 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:33,559 Speaker 2: but there's something about this story that I think saw 212 00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 2: a lot of people react to this and go, yeah, 213 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 2: I get I get it, I get it. That is 214 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:38,560 Speaker 2: that insane. 215 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: No, I don't think it's insane. I mean, listen, again, 216 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 1: we don't know a whole lot. I mean we know some. 217 00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: Uh you know, if if it is true and again 218 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 1: this this person will have their day in court. But 219 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,320 Speaker 1: if this is true that this person molested a minor 220 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: one hundred times, I mean, who on earth could feel 221 00:10:53,440 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 1: sympathy for this person under any circumstance like if Cain 222 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,600 Speaker 1: had often? Are any of us going to lose sleep 223 00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:03,559 Speaker 1: over that? Like? No, I'm not. Why don't I might 224 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: even sleep a little bit better? To be quite honest 225 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: with you, it's not that, I guess mostly BC, I 226 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,719 Speaker 1: just feel sad. I just feel sad. First of the 227 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: whole thing is just tragic first and foremost, again, it 228 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: is a legend. We don't will see what the courts decide. 229 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 1: But if it is true that this miner, whoever this 230 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: person may be, had this suffered to them, that's a 231 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,280 Speaker 1: lifetime of damage they may never recover from. That is 232 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: a I mean, an unspeakable horror to do that to 233 00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 1: a person. Moreover, you can't undo it. So now they 234 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: just have to live with this, even if this person 235 00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:34,240 Speaker 1: had been killed by kin. But they weren't. So now 236 00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: they live, and now in trying to go through this 237 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 1: vigilante thing, It's like, dude, I don't even care if 238 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:43,000 Speaker 1: that guy had died. I really don't. I don't know 239 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 1: many people that would, to be honest with you, But 240 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:48,200 Speaker 1: he didn't. He lived, and the other person lived. And 241 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: now Cain is the one who is I mean, by 242 00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:52,360 Speaker 1: the letter of the law. I don't know what the 243 00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: evidence is. I guess we'll have to see. But assuming 244 00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 1: he actually did this to your point with the muckshot, 245 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 1: he didn't look particularly sad about the whole thing. And 246 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: you know, I can understand again, do I understand Kines? 247 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:03,959 Speaker 1: Like how would I feel if someone to deb to 248 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: my daughter? Maybe I'll do the exact same thing. You know, like, 249 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,199 Speaker 1: who knows how you you're going to react. I don't 250 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 1: know if it was ke One clarification, one clarification, one clarification. 251 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 1: I don't know if it's Kane's daughter. They I want 252 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: to be clear about this, Yes they say family member. 253 00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: I don't know who that person is. I'm only saying 254 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,160 Speaker 1: it that happened to my daughter, I would react that 255 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: way maybe. 256 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 2: And the only age specific things we know is that 257 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 2: the accused is being charged of molesting someone under the 258 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 2: age of fourteenth. So that's the only thing we do know. 259 00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 2: But you, I think you hit upon the key point 260 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 2: when bring you know, when looking in the mirror at 261 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: your own life and saying, look, I like to believe 262 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,480 Speaker 2: I'm you know, a little bit more civilized where I 263 00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:40,040 Speaker 2: wouldn't react like this, But you know, who knows, Luke, 264 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 2: unless you're in that potential situation. 265 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: And I guess the greater point I'm. 266 00:12:45,720 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: Just is, let's not. The greater point is I'm not 267 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:52,000 Speaker 2: here to celebrate Caine. I'm here to say, like you said, damn, 268 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 2: this is a tragedy on every single level and could 269 00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:57,559 Speaker 2: have been much much worse. 270 00:12:58,280 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: Much much worse. Who knows what could have happened to 271 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: other people in that intersection, although you know, I don't 272 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: know what happened there either. I'm just saying, here's what's 273 00:13:03,880 --> 00:13:06,560 Speaker 1: sad about it. This person who has been molested has 274 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 1: been affected for life. This alleged molester, if it is true, 275 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 1: will walk not in terms of justice but ambulatory. They're 276 00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:16,080 Speaker 1: not in any way affected by what Cain did. And 277 00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: now Cain has to go to jail. I don't know 278 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: what a jury's going to do. I don't know what 279 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,000 Speaker 1: is next, but Jesus Christ, it just feels like a 280 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 1: horrific situation. I don't think I can recall BC. Can 281 00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: you think of another famous combat sports champion now who 282 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:34,040 Speaker 1: got in trouble with the law. I mean that's not 283 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 1: all that hard to find, but who did something like this? 284 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 1: And again, not that we're judging per se how we 285 00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,840 Speaker 1: would react in that case, but just did something like 286 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:47,839 Speaker 1: this where they where they acted out in this manner 287 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:50,520 Speaker 1: which was, according to what we know for the police report, dude, 288 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: very direct, very specific, very full of intent. It was 289 00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:57,800 Speaker 1: a botched execution, so to speak. But I just I 290 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,480 Speaker 1: don't think I've seen anything like this in this particular 291 00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:01,320 Speaker 1: kind of way. 292 00:14:02,480 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, we haven't. 293 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: We haven't. 294 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 2: I mean, we've seen a lot of really bad situations 295 00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 2: from moj to Ray Carruth to war Machine, you know, 296 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 2: across major sports and Aaron Hernandez. But I'm not sure 297 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 2: if we haven't exactly those are all different, Yeah, all different. 298 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:17,680 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if we have a direct comparison here, 299 00:14:17,679 --> 00:14:19,800 Speaker 2: but you know, I mean there was some I mean 300 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,680 Speaker 2: I think I even saw an interview like two weeks ago. Uh, 301 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 2: I forgot was it Javier A Mendez who was sort 302 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,440 Speaker 2: of saying, look, I'm not really I'm not really sure 303 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 2: Kane is one hundred percent done with him. And so 304 00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 2: it's sort of like, you know, here's somebody who's not 305 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,120 Speaker 2: far from you know, having his face on the poster 306 00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 2: of a w W pay per view for whatever that 307 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 2: matters against brock Lesner and obviously competing at the highest 308 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 2: levels of the UFC. But uh, it's very unique this situation. 309 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: And man, I'm not sure what the fallout is going 310 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 2: to be, Luke. I mean, you know, I keep I 311 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 2: keep thinking, for for better or worse that that scene 312 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 2: in that movie is it a time to kill? 313 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: With h with a line hey and yeah. 314 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 2: It's Is it Samuel Jackson who delivered that line, that 315 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: famous line of yes, I you know, yes they did 316 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: designed yeah, yeah and I and you remember that the 317 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: way that moment set up, it was like, again, in 318 00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:18,360 Speaker 2: that situation, different from the Kane situation, but again I 319 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:18,800 Speaker 2: get it. 320 00:15:19,720 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 1: I guess the last thing I'd say is, but in 321 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,760 Speaker 1: that scenario, the guy had gotten or not gotten away, 322 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: but he had fully uh gone through with his plan 323 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,880 Speaker 1: about killing the guy. Kane went through with the plan, 324 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 1: but it didn't work, and now he's the only one. Well, 325 00:15:32,800 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: this other guy has these other crimes to answer for, 326 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 1: but yeah, that he is the one in jail. It's like, 327 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 1: how is this what what this is upside down world? 328 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 2: You know, no, it is, it is in one other 329 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 2: key in the Look, there are situations in life where 330 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: where the law, you know, you could say the law 331 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:49,760 Speaker 2: isn't needed, or you stop thinking about the fallout of 332 00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 2: the law, and you know, sometimes you get in that 333 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 2: point in life. But you know, it is important to note, Luke, 334 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 2: that this guy was under police custody and then was 335 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 2: released on bail. And I think the story said against 336 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,520 Speaker 2: the better judgment of what like the local. 337 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: The the the local district attorney objected to this guy 338 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:11,160 Speaker 1: being released, and the judge overruled him and released many 339 00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: days later. 340 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 2: You know, yeah, Kine came calling, so wow, and you 341 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: know Velaska's has turned down all requests for interviews from jail, 342 00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,360 Speaker 2: the of the newspapers and such. But uh, yeah, you 343 00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 2: know again to your initial statement, I don't know what 344 00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 2: to ask her, what to say. We just said a 345 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,960 Speaker 2: lot but unique, scary, tragic, all that, and then. 346 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,680 Speaker 1: Some I mean, who had Kane Velaskaz in prison for 347 00:16:35,840 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 1: murder or attempted murder anyway on their BINGO card for 348 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Boy, I gotta tell you that wasn't 349 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 1: on mine. You know, however justified you might believe it 350 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: to be. I still didn't have it on mine. So 351 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: what a shame, What a terrible situation. I guess we'll 352 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:51,560 Speaker 1: see what happens with it, all right, BC, let's turn 353 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 1: our attention if we can't do the big fights this 354 00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 1: weekend UFC two seventy two. Now as you indicate it, Hey, 355 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: we have a pregame preview me BC Chuckman already on 356 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: the site now up yesterday. You can go and check 357 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,800 Speaker 1: it out either during the show, after the show, whenever 358 00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 1: you want. Resume review on Colby Covington, which means we 359 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: now had resume reviews on both the main and both 360 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 1: main event competitors. I should say we did one previously 361 00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 1: on Jorge, we did one this week on Colby. Let's 362 00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:17,399 Speaker 1: put a pin in that and come back to it 363 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,160 Speaker 1: for just a second, BC, we got to talk about 364 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: the new co main event half Al Dosanjos was sort 365 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 1: of originally expected on this card to face Raphael FaZe 366 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 1: Faziv yesterday, so that would be Tuesday comes down. Actually, 367 00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 1: I think even on Monday, our Tuesday had come down 368 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: with COVID. He's out, so they had to find a replacement. 369 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 3: BC. 370 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,119 Speaker 1: They almost went with Islam Makachev, but for whatever reason 371 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: it didn't work even at one hundred and seventy pounds. 372 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 1: Instead in steps Hanato Maaikano, fresh off of his win 373 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: over Alexander Hernandez at one fifty five. But they're gonna 374 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,399 Speaker 1: make it a one sixty pound Catchwight and this is 375 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:53,240 Speaker 1: the kicker. It will be for five rounds, at least 376 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: reportedly five rounds. Give me your reaction to all of 377 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: this news. 378 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 2: Wow, I will say this, I'm not surprised. Motherfucker's given. 379 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 2: I don't say this card's curse, but but the theme 380 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:07,640 Speaker 2: we've had, I mean this card. UFC two seventy two 381 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,119 Speaker 2: on Saturday in Las Vegas was supposed to be uh 382 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: Max versus Volkanowski three with Jan Sterling two as the 383 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 2: co main event, and then you know they changed that 384 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 2: that Hafiel do san Jos Rafael Fhaziv Fight Night main 385 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 2: event that was supposed to be a few weeks before 386 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 2: to this co main event slot and like you said, 387 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 2: kept it a five round uh non title bot which 388 00:18:28,359 --> 00:18:30,399 Speaker 2: is unique to itself, you know, coming off of that 389 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 2: who just recently did that Luke was an eights against 390 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 2: Leon Edwards? Is that the one I'm thinking of? Who? 391 00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 1: It just happened for me that the yahsu not that's right? 392 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,159 Speaker 1: That was the first non title five round a comin. 393 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 2: Yes, So here's my reaction. I think the fight that 394 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 2: ended up getting booked, it certainly doesn't suck. You know, 395 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 2: they are da versus versus this kind of reformed Moikano, 396 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 2: who's starting to answer some real questions after changing weight divisions. 397 00:18:57,040 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 2: It's a hell of a fight and you're telling me 398 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 2: you're gonna give us five rounds. I'm I mean, a 399 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,439 Speaker 2: really good fight. The other fights being mentioned were I 400 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: just think we're certainly sexier. Even Tony Ferguson tweeting that 401 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 2: he was offered it and was willing and the UFC 402 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,400 Speaker 2: chose not to go his direction. Suddenly you're like, as 403 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 2: a last minute, damn that could have been. That could 404 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 2: have been something fun. I also think obviously Mahachev would 405 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: have been hella interesting, and I think there were some 406 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,200 Speaker 2: other names there. But if I can focus for one 407 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,720 Speaker 2: second on Islam Mahachev, tell me if I'm wrong here, Luke. 408 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 2: I know he was the one who actually originally tweeted 409 00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:33,320 Speaker 2: that he would be willing to do this, and then 410 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:35,800 Speaker 2: Urda was like, hell, yeah, let's do it. And then 411 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 2: you know, ultimately, and there's probably the tweet right there, 412 00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,360 Speaker 2: if we can blow it up to look at it. Ultimately, 413 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 2: it didn't happen, and then you had our DA kind 414 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 2: of clowning Mahachev and saying, look, I called this bluff 415 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 2: and he backed down. Luke, if you're Islam Machev and 416 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,760 Speaker 2: you're riding a ten fight win streak and you already 417 00:19:57,720 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 2: just want to fight against Bobby Green that was supposed 418 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 2: to Benil dear, use that you could argue it was 419 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:03,680 Speaker 2: a week ago, by the way, and you could argue 420 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 2: he maybe shouldn't have even been in that spot, like 421 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 2: he already should have gotten a title shot. Why in 422 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 2: the damn hell, outside of the fact that this conversation 423 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 2: only started because Mahachev made that tweet, why in the 424 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:17,920 Speaker 2: damn hell would you turn around on seven days in 425 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:23,919 Speaker 2: a largely meaningless fight with OURDA that can only I 426 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 2: mean like it's company man type stuff, it's tough guy 427 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,479 Speaker 2: type stuff, But what the hell do you gain from it? 428 00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 2: Considering one of those topics that we're gonna talk about shortly, 429 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 2: those weird Dana White on Connor McGregor comments like, you're 430 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 2: not guaranteed anything in terms of what you deserve. We've 431 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,200 Speaker 2: seen guys like Tony Ferguson, like Max Holloway go long 432 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: winning streaks before they finally got that elusive title shot. 433 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 2: You're seeing Leon Edwards go through that right now. Tell 434 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 2: me this, Luke, why in the hell would he even 435 00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:57,359 Speaker 2: a start this conversation or b you know, he doesn't 436 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 2: seem like a guy that's motivated by money. Why would 437 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:02,000 Speaker 2: you even want to do this when you should just 438 00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:04,920 Speaker 2: be sitting there and saying, I got the next tile show. 439 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,119 Speaker 2: I've already locked it up. So if it doesn't happen, 440 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 2: this is UFC screwing me over like they did Uncle 441 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:11,440 Speaker 2: Habib at UFC two oh five. 442 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: Maybe he thought, even though he got the win over 443 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: Bobby Green, and I'm only guessing, I want to be 444 00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,640 Speaker 1: very clear about that. My only guess would be he 445 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,879 Speaker 1: looked at it and said, if I take this one 446 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: for the UFC and you know, fight at one seven 447 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 1: or whatever. They would have agreed upon five rounds or otherwise, 448 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: I'd be doing them as solid and because he doesn't 449 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:36,120 Speaker 1: have that like a level win. More recently, the Dan 450 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: Hooker win was nice, but I mean, you know, obviously 451 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:39,480 Speaker 1: beating Bobby Green on short notice is not the same 452 00:21:39,480 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: as beating Benil Daryush. He might have thought I could 453 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 1: win this do with a UFC a solid favor and 454 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: like really make it ironclad, but as you indicate, there 455 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 1: are so many ways where that could just go wrong. 456 00:21:51,800 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: And even if you get it, you might be thinking 457 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: you're doing them a favor, and you are, but how 458 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: that will be repaid is very unclear. It's just it's 459 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,720 Speaker 1: just worth more happen than it is reward. I just 460 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:04,400 Speaker 1: think initially he might have been in that let's lock 461 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:06,040 Speaker 1: this thing up kind of a gear. But I want 462 00:22:06,040 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 1: to say something about. 463 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:08,440 Speaker 2: This fair angle. That's a fair angle. 464 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: Look, I appreciate that, Okay, I just feel like I know, listen, 465 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 1: am I going to argue with you or anybody else 466 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 1: that Artya versus Makachev is a worse fight than Ardia 467 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,160 Speaker 1: versus Not to MOI Kano. No, that would have been 468 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,879 Speaker 1: for the fans interests far preferable, I understand. But I've 469 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,879 Speaker 1: seen people being like, oh, this fight's okay, dude, this 470 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:29,679 Speaker 1: fight is great. Number one, I think I would just 471 00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: point out the UFC step up culture that's got these 472 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 1: guys doing this. For like Moi Kano, he has a 473 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: lot to gain here, but this is a very difficult 474 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 1: assignment under the circumstances under which he's taking it. He's 475 00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:44,040 Speaker 1: trying to put wins together, not just do the UFC 476 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: a solid so under that guideline, dude, this is a 477 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 1: big risk for him, but he has looked amazing since 478 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:52,280 Speaker 1: coming up to one fifty five. He's got his three 479 00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 1: of his four fights he's won and all three by submission. 480 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: So he's putting these guys away. This is a huge challenge, 481 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 1: but one that he has ever been more up for. 482 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,439 Speaker 1: And for RDA, we know he's a real talent, but 483 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,840 Speaker 1: he's kind of on the I think the latter stages 484 00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 1: I would say of his career he can be the 485 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: guy like mo Kano, it would say a lot. Plus 486 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,359 Speaker 1: these two guys are action oriented. I just feel like 487 00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:16,680 Speaker 1: as a replacement replacement, I don't know what folks are expecting. 488 00:23:16,720 --> 00:23:17,840 Speaker 1: This is a great. 489 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,919 Speaker 2: Option as a replacement replacement of a replacement that was 490 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 2: actually a replacement to a different replacement. Hell yeah, Luke, 491 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 2: I love this fight. And how about our da always 492 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,560 Speaker 2: being bowed about it? Shout out to him, But I 493 00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 2: get what you're saying on Moykana as well. He has 494 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 2: the opportunity to get the kind of you know, public 495 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 2: critical appreciation by taking this chance and putting himself in 496 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:42,879 Speaker 2: a pay per view cole mane, which still means a 497 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 2: lot when you are trying to get to that level 498 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 2: for sure, both financially and pride and competition wise, but 499 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,720 Speaker 2: you know, even even more, he can make a leap 500 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 2: up those rankings with a big win. Here did you 501 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 2: see the actual details? I think Aaron Bronstater tweeted out 502 00:23:57,840 --> 00:24:01,160 Speaker 2: of Moikano taking that like fourteen our flight to Brazil 503 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,040 Speaker 2: to be with his family, and as soon as he 504 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:06,199 Speaker 2: touches down, goes through the phone calls of him, you know, 505 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:09,919 Speaker 2: being potentially offered the fight, accepts it right away and 506 00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:12,880 Speaker 2: then gets back on an overnight fourteen hour plane ride 507 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:16,200 Speaker 2: that had two stops along the way to join you know, 508 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 2: mid fight week I mean, these guys, Luke, whether the motivation, 509 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,639 Speaker 2: and we just laid out potential motivations for all these guys. 510 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 2: No matter the motivation, Dude, these guys are mercenaries for hire. 511 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:29,080 Speaker 1: You know. 512 00:24:29,480 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 2: Respect to the insensitivity that we led with the cane 513 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 2: shooting story, but these guys are more mercenaries for hire, Luke, 514 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 2: and I respect that as much as I'm saying, hey, 515 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:40,719 Speaker 2: Isla Machev, be a little bit more business savvy and 516 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:42,679 Speaker 2: don't you know, don't give in when you don't need to. 517 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, he tantalized fans about something he seemed really interested 518 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,080 Speaker 1: in doing, and then I think he realized it's just 519 00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: not worth it in the end, which is fine, make 520 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: the rational choices as best you can. But it got 521 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,080 Speaker 1: fans worked out. I think that's the problem. He got 522 00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,159 Speaker 1: them worked out for like a super high level or 523 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,639 Speaker 1: a super a level interest fight when this is not 524 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:04,680 Speaker 1: that necessarily. But I would just argue for the folks 525 00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 1: who be like oh I Macanno, Moi Kano. Every time 526 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,560 Speaker 1: he has stepped up previously mostly a one forty five, 527 00:25:10,359 --> 00:25:12,960 Speaker 1: he has looked good at times, but you know, kind 528 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:14,640 Speaker 1: of fell short just a little bit. This is what 529 00:25:14,680 --> 00:25:17,159 Speaker 1: he's looking for he's looking for a big name on 530 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: a big stage to finally turn that corner. And if 531 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,280 Speaker 1: he does, he's another interesting player in this division. So 532 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: I get I get why folks a little bit let down, 533 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,439 Speaker 1: but I would just caution not to be too cynical 534 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:30,320 Speaker 1: about it. There's a lot of reasons to be excited 535 00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,560 Speaker 1: also in this car No, how dare you. 536 00:25:32,920 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 2: Not lead with the real story from this card? Luke, 537 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:38,399 Speaker 2: Jessica I has pulled out of this Mann Fierro fight, 538 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 2: so she has apologized to the fan. Luke, she said 539 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 2: she had a tremendous training camp. So here we go, 540 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 2: evil Luke, Here. 541 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:48,320 Speaker 1: We go, Here we go. Indeed, b C, I want 542 00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:49,600 Speaker 1: to go back to the main event for this one. 543 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:51,520 Speaker 1: We've just we've talked about it at length again pregame, 544 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:53,240 Speaker 1: preview and resume review. 545 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 2: Things have changed. Would you agree that the huge media 546 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 2: splurge the last four or five days led by like 547 00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:05,400 Speaker 2: that's sort of updated and or change some of these like. 548 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: Okay, brother, let me pitch it to you. Let me 549 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:10,439 Speaker 1: pitch to you. How would you say? How would you 550 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,680 Speaker 1: characterize that shift? Where are we now? 551 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,160 Speaker 2: You know we're in full on monster fight promotion mode 552 00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 2: of course in this matchup, which I think, Luke, given 553 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 2: the fact that two title fights fell off, I'm not 554 00:26:22,320 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 2: even sure UFC was necessarily going in this direction for 555 00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 2: this matchup, even though it's very logical for both fighters 556 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 2: and the promotion. But given that this pay per view needed, 557 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 2: you know, a main event, it got it. It allows 558 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 2: both fighters a chance to really relitigate and and dig 559 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,160 Speaker 2: deep and tell the full story on you know, how 560 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 2: close were you really, what were those sparring sessions really like? 561 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,439 Speaker 2: And ultimately whose fault was it for the you know, 562 00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 2: all that bull It's either bullshit to you or it's 563 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: fuel for what could potentially happen in this fight. So, Luke, 564 00:26:54,160 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: here's what I've learned, and it's interesting, and I think, 565 00:26:56,320 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 2: you know, let's give Mark Raymunday credit. He did sit 566 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 2: down for ESPN with Dan Lamb. Also, Hori moswital I 567 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:05,760 Speaker 2: really enjoyed Breto Kimodo sit down with Koby Covington. I mean, 568 00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,160 Speaker 2: good lord, Luke, we didn't even mention OURDA found out 569 00:27:08,400 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: that Phyzivee pulled out of that fight mid interview with Ariel. 570 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:13,479 Speaker 2: So it's been a while last week to begin with, 571 00:27:13,800 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: but in relation to this main event. I think it's 572 00:27:18,280 --> 00:27:22,880 Speaker 2: worthless to like look too closely in like their reactions. 573 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 2: And I saw a lot of people saying, damn, look, 574 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 2: Kobe looked shook in that interview. And I don't know 575 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 2: if there's an amount of money on this planet you 576 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,840 Speaker 2: could pay me to sit through the seven minutes that 577 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:34,160 Speaker 2: was stephen A interviewing both guys at the same time. 578 00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 2: So I have no idea what happened there, Luke, and 579 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:39,399 Speaker 2: I never will. But here's what I want to say 580 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 2: that I didn't say on the rooftop that has come 581 00:27:42,359 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 2: out from my observations this week. Okay, I think there's 582 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: two questions you have to ask yourself about this fight. One, 583 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 2: because the narrative is so much in your face, you 584 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 2: got to kind of deal with it to a certain degree, 585 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:58,240 Speaker 2: like who's really telling the truth? They are so one 586 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 2: hundred percent in opposite to on every story about the 587 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 2: history of their friendship and who didn't pay who and 588 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:06,919 Speaker 2: how they fell apart and who fucked who over and 589 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 2: who got actually invited back to att after being kicked 590 00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:14,439 Speaker 2: out that somebody's lying. So that's question one, you know. 591 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 2: In question two, obviously, is does any of that shit 592 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 2: really matter because obviously styles make fights in the end, 593 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:25,080 Speaker 2: this is a very bad style matchup for Jorge. Colby 594 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:28,959 Speaker 2: is three years younger and much more fresher and more elite. 595 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 2: Now I say much more. You could argue that's exaggerating, 596 00:28:31,880 --> 00:28:35,200 Speaker 2: but you know we'll find out. And also Luke both 597 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 2: have lost to the same guy in the past two 598 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 2: and a half years, but Covey team came a lot 599 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 2: closer in both fights. You know, there's no question about that. 600 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:45,959 Speaker 2: But I want to say this about Jorge that I 601 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,040 Speaker 2: didn't think heading in that I've picked up from the 602 00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: interviews this week. You know, none of that might matter 603 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 2: in the end. It could be fifty forty five Colby 604 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 2: in Shut Up BC. But the when we see Jorge 605 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 2: at his best, he is one of the rare athletes 606 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 2: fighters who doesn't just bring emotions into the game like 607 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:08,600 Speaker 2: is fueled by them. Most guys, that's a distraction. Jorges 608 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 2: arguably at his very best when the trash talking is 609 00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 2: dialed up. Or Luke when you look back at his 610 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 2: insane twenty nineteen when he came back from that year 611 00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 2: plus off, came out of the jungles of that reality 612 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 2: show and vowed to baptize everyone and went on that 613 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 2: run of three knockouts and the almost unimaginable Fighter of 614 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,760 Speaker 2: the Year honors and went from journeyman too pay per 615 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 2: view headliner almost overnight. Dude, that was emotion fueled. It 616 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 2: was a lot of like, I've been in this game 617 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 2: a long time and I've really never got the recognition 618 00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 2: or financial rewards that I deserved. And Luke he turned 619 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 2: his fortunes around in twenty nineteen and as I always say, 620 00:29:48,880 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 2: actually voted them number ten pounds per pound after he 621 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,680 Speaker 2: beatingn A Diaz that year because like everyone else, like 622 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 2: it's just hard not to get caught up and who 623 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 2: the hell is this guy? But that was emotion fueled 624 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 2: to a large degree. What's followed since twenty nineteen. You know, 625 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 2: on paper, it's two losses to Kamara Usman, who's arguably 626 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:10,160 Speaker 2: on his way to becoming one of the grace of 627 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 2: all time, and it's a horrible style matchup, so who cares. 628 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,320 Speaker 2: But I think Jorge really started to live that celebrity 629 00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 2: life in twenty twenty because he finally had the cash 630 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 2: to kind of do what he wants and start his 631 00:30:21,680 --> 00:30:24,320 Speaker 2: own liquor business, you know, all that stuff, that that's 632 00:30:24,360 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 2: where he always wanted to be, and whether he was 633 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 2: going to get destroyed by Usman twice or not, I 634 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:32,240 Speaker 2: think it took some of that edge off. Now, obviously 635 00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,920 Speaker 2: he's also thirty seven, and we can always make the 636 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 2: debate of was that twenty nineteen performance from him like 637 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,480 Speaker 2: lightning in a bottle Tim Tebow run into the playoffs 638 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: that will never see from him again? But look, I 639 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,400 Speaker 2: feel like he went into that Usman first fight with 640 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 2: that short camp, you know, really not expecting to win 641 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 2: given the circumstances, and then of course gets a taste 642 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 2: of how great Usman is and realizes how far they 643 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 2: actually are apart. And then you know, like the company 644 00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 2: above him, Cash is in the rematch and you know 645 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 2: his game, but gets sent to the bottom depths of hell. 646 00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 2: I feel like I see that spark again in Jorge 647 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 2: this week that I haven't seen since twenty nineteen. Now, 648 00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:14,239 Speaker 2: I'm not fooled into believing that that same version as 649 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 2: walking through that door on Saturday. I just think I'm 650 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 2: giving Jorge a much bigger chance than I expected coming 651 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 2: into this week because he loves this shit. He thrives 652 00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 2: on this hatred and he said he said in all 653 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,360 Speaker 2: that bs where obviously he's not gonna do anything unless 654 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 2: he can get Colby into a brawl. But the foundation's 655 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:38,480 Speaker 2: being bill and we'll find out more at the final 656 00:31:38,520 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 2: presser and the you know way in face to face. 657 00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 2: I feel like that foundation. Luke is kind of talking 658 00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 2: me into saying this week, Jorge, you've won me back over. 659 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:49,600 Speaker 2: I think the fire might be relt maybe for the 660 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,680 Speaker 2: last time. Maybe he's got reason again to light at Luke, 661 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 2: whether you think he's fighting for his pay per view 662 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 2: future or not. But that guy's back, dude, that bad guy. 663 00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 2: He's back this week. 664 00:31:59,600 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 1: So this is what I said on the roof. You're 665 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:04,920 Speaker 1: right about one thing I just don't think anyone can 666 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 1: really challenge, which is like, can we get the twenty 667 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: nineteen heroics back? I don't think so. I think that 668 00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:11,720 Speaker 1: that was in twenty nineteen. I don't think you can 669 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:15,240 Speaker 1: get that back. But that doesn't mean to me that 670 00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:21,000 Speaker 1: him exceeding expectations and having a raised because you know, 671 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,720 Speaker 1: Poorge at his best is quite good. You just don't know. 672 00:32:24,000 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 1: Not that he's unmotivated per se, but sometimes he fights 673 00:32:26,120 --> 00:32:29,000 Speaker 1: down to competition. Sometimes he fights up. Sometimes he's overwhelmed. 674 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: But what I mean to say is the idea that 675 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:33,720 Speaker 1: he was that there's only twenty nineteen or nothing, to 676 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:35,840 Speaker 1: me just feels like a little bit of a mixed 677 00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 1: middle ground where he could actually raise his profile. One 678 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: thing to think about BC here is I'm not gonna 679 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: say every time, but a lot of times when Colby 680 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:47,800 Speaker 1: is doing his shtick, it's one way traffic. I mean, 681 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 1: Tyron Woody kind of gave it back to him, but 682 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: Tyrone was on his last legs at the time, and 683 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: like having a hat where like oh make or keep racist, 684 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 1: catching a fade or whatever it was, it didn't have 685 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: hardly any effect during the fight week or anything else. 686 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 1: But here you got a guy who is not only 687 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 1: giving it back to him, but giving it back to 688 00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: him in a way where they're making like claims about 689 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:07,920 Speaker 1: who he actually is in ways that no one else can. 690 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:10,440 Speaker 1: I mean, you mentioned something like who's lying. I don't 691 00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,680 Speaker 1: know who's lying. But again, Danny Sigura talked to Paulino Hernandez, 692 00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,280 Speaker 1: the coach at the middle of this. I watched the 693 00:33:15,280 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: whole interview. Dude, He's pretty direct about it. He's like, yeah, 694 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,560 Speaker 1: this whole thing. This, this, this, this, he stiffed me. 695 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,440 Speaker 1: I don't like him, and that's why we're here. He 696 00:33:21,480 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 1: didn't mince words at all, he didn't exaggerate for effect. 697 00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: He was kind of soft spoken, but he just laid 698 00:33:25,800 --> 00:33:28,080 Speaker 1: it all out there. So, dude, I feel like Jorge 699 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,720 Speaker 1: Masvidal is Yes. Of course, as we said, a lot 700 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: of this is for effect, a lot of this is 701 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:36,240 Speaker 1: for money, the media stuff where they're badgering each other 702 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,960 Speaker 1: on Steven A. Smith, this is clearly designed to sell 703 00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 1: pay per views, but the heart of it is something real. 704 00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,479 Speaker 1: And because there is something real, and I think also BC, Jorge, 705 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 1: as you indicated, not super young. He probably knows that 706 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 1: big fights are going to be come into a close 707 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: sooner rather than later. I honestly feel like I still 708 00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: think Colby deserves to be the favorite based on the 709 00:33:55,280 --> 00:33:58,200 Speaker 1: body of work he's turned in. And again you're right, 710 00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 1: fifty to forty five who could be surprised, But don't 711 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,880 Speaker 1: be surprised either if Jorge still has some magic in him. 712 00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 1: This is a semi different scenario that Colby's entering to, 713 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 1: and I think those differences can matter. 714 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 2: It's rare, Luke, it's rare when handicapping a fight or 715 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:14,799 Speaker 2: taking you know, doing these long winded rants like I 716 00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 2: just did, to try to properly set the storyline and 717 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,040 Speaker 2: how it can affect the fight. It's rare that you go, 718 00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,200 Speaker 2: you know, so far off base, beyond the x's and 719 00:34:23,200 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 2: o's and lean into that. But Luke, you know you 720 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 2: have a brother. I don't have one, But I grew 721 00:34:27,680 --> 00:34:30,360 Speaker 2: up with you know, a lot a lot of uh. 722 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:32,600 Speaker 2: I grew up with a lot of other people who 723 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,919 Speaker 2: had brothers. Man, that sounds lame as shit, man, right, 724 00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:37,719 Speaker 2: I grew up with a lot of boys who had I. 725 00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:39,640 Speaker 1: Know, people who also have brothers. 726 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:45,359 Speaker 2: You ever see a brother fight, Luke, Age, size, experience 727 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 2: doesn't always come into play when there's that level of 728 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 2: like emotion and rage. And I don't really know if 729 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,080 Speaker 2: Colby and Jorgey were like true best buds. And I 730 00:34:54,120 --> 00:34:58,120 Speaker 2: don't actually, Luke, really know if this whole breakup, you know, 731 00:34:58,200 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 2: they could have just as easily said, hey, look, bro, 732 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:02,200 Speaker 2: we know we have you know, a check we can 733 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 2: cash later in our careers, So let's let's keep the 734 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,959 Speaker 2: you know, let's keep this shit up. You know who knows, Luke, 735 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 2: But Orge is making me believe a little bit. Like 736 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,279 Speaker 2: I mentioned that, you know, if he can create taking 737 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 2: the word chaos, if he can actually create chaos again 738 00:35:15,840 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 2: in that cage, you never know, you never know. And 739 00:35:18,320 --> 00:35:20,520 Speaker 2: I think that's got me a lot more excited, even 740 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:22,520 Speaker 2: though I'm not buying it completely on some of the 741 00:35:22,520 --> 00:35:25,239 Speaker 2: theatrics and the pro wrestling and all that bullshit, I 742 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 2: am interested to see, like, you know, can you catch 743 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 2: at Colby who may not have that same motivation? I mean, Luke, 744 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,399 Speaker 2: that's the thing, because if we're going on things other 745 00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:36,600 Speaker 2: than next as the No's, how about motivation. I do believe, 746 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 2: you know, there's people that tell VC you're crazy if 747 00:35:39,280 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 2: if if Jorge loses this, he could just as well 748 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,919 Speaker 2: headline the next pay per view against Connor. Yeah, Okay, 749 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 2: you're probably right there. But I do believe that Jorge 750 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 2: seems to be fighting for much more in this fight 751 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 2: than Colby is. Luke, That's just what I believe. 752 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that's crazy. I really don't think that's crazy. 753 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:57,040 Speaker 1: A though, And honestly, I cannot wait to see what's 754 00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,440 Speaker 1: gonna happen on Saturday. Okay, b see, we have to 755 00:35:59,440 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: get to more craziness let's talk about this. You saw 756 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: this and I was not floored, but we knew we 757 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 1: had to discuss it. So Dana White spoke to John Morgan. 758 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 1: By the way, shouts to John Morgan. After a long 759 00:36:10,880 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 1: tenure at MMA Junkie is now it looks to me 760 00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: like the head guy in charge over at Mixmartial Arts 761 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 1: dot com. Their forum is known as the Underground, So 762 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: Dana spoke to John Morgan through that. Now he was 763 00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,280 Speaker 1: asked about Connor McGregor, and he was asked about title 764 00:36:24,280 --> 00:36:26,080 Speaker 1: shots and how this is all going to play out. 765 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 1: Here is what Dana said in response to the question 766 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,399 Speaker 1: about whether or not Connor's going to get a title 767 00:36:31,400 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: shot when he comes back. Quote, it's going to depend 768 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 1: on who the champion is. The champion has some saying 769 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,080 Speaker 1: that too. Who's going to be the champ when Connor 770 00:36:39,120 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 1: McGregor comes back, or what do they want to do? 771 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,240 Speaker 1: If you look at OLIVERA, right, if it's still OLIVERA 772 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,320 Speaker 1: by the time he comes back, maybe OLIVERA wants Connor. 773 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,080 Speaker 1: Who knows. I don't know. We'll have to see what happens. 774 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: There's a lot of variables that have to come together 775 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,080 Speaker 1: for him to come back and fight number one is 776 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,680 Speaker 1: health houses his leg. Then once that's a one hundred 777 00:36:55,680 --> 00:36:57,520 Speaker 1: percent we'll start to figure out where he goes because 778 00:36:57,560 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: a lot of these we have fights. This is KEYBC 779 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: already made through June eighteenth already. Once he's one hundred 780 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,800 Speaker 1: percent ready to go, we'll get him figured out, and 781 00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:08,839 Speaker 1: we'll see what's what with the lightweight division, and we'll 782 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 1: get him figured out. Be See, here's my read on this. 783 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 1: Tell me if I'm wrong. He's not saying that Connor 784 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: is necessarily the next person to get a title shot, 785 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,520 Speaker 1: because the calendar might fill up before they can make 786 00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,800 Speaker 1: all that work. But what he is saying is doesn't 787 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:25,520 Speaker 1: matter because by the time Connor does come back, if 788 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,279 Speaker 1: the champ wants it, you, Bubba's would be crazy to 789 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:30,480 Speaker 1: think we're not going to make it. 790 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,080 Speaker 2: For like, you know, I can either quote NAT or 791 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,480 Speaker 2: I could just tell you straight up, I fucking told you, 792 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 2: and you meaning the Ethos Fear and everyone who dms 793 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,280 Speaker 2: me all the time and says DC stop riding Connor's 794 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,560 Speaker 2: nutsack and bringing up his name. There's no freaking chance 795 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,960 Speaker 2: that injured, washed guy coming off to you know, stoppage 796 00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 2: defeats is going to get the next title shot, and 797 00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:54,279 Speaker 2: like I tell them, and like I always say, Luke good, 798 00:37:54,320 --> 00:37:56,960 Speaker 2: I mean kidding me. You can never put this pastor 799 00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: underestimate the UFC. And you could also, Luke argue separate 800 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 2: from you know, rankings and meritocracy, they'd be dumb not 801 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 2: to consider this exact same thing. But it's it's of 802 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:11,799 Speaker 2: course it's in play, and you know, I mean, let's 803 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,080 Speaker 2: say all of as much as like, that's why I'm 804 00:38:14,080 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 2: saying with the Islam Mahachev thing, it's like, don't do 805 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 2: them any favors, especially in where we are right now 806 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 2: in fighter pay and maybe some of the advances that 807 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 2: could be coming if people are still bold, or if 808 00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 2: there's just gonna be some type of fall off from 809 00:38:28,280 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 2: Nghanu being so bold. And you can argue Atasania seems 810 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 2: to be very happy following that in Gani situation, so 811 00:38:34,160 --> 00:38:36,960 Speaker 2: you know, keep posted to that. But even in this 812 00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:39,640 Speaker 2: in this era, you know, I just don't think Islam 813 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 2: should be giving that away. But you see right here 814 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 2: why because they could they could just as hell scurity 815 00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,480 Speaker 2: on the back end. So if Olivera beats Gaechie, you 816 00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 2: know Olivera, everybody wants to fight Connor, especially now when 817 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:55,239 Speaker 2: he's deemed vulnerable. They'd fight him anyway, no matter what, 818 00:38:55,680 --> 00:38:58,120 Speaker 2: for the opportunity and the money and the I mean, 819 00:38:58,160 --> 00:39:01,799 Speaker 2: you're you're a made man, you know. I mean, okay, look, 820 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,600 Speaker 2: let me ask you this, can I, Louke, can I 821 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:04,280 Speaker 2: ask you something? 822 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:05,320 Speaker 1: Please? 823 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 2: You know, the lifetime reputation and respect Nick Diaz has, 824 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 2: it's almost impeccable, like fans love him. But is Nate 825 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:20,040 Speaker 2: is Nick Das? Nick is Nick Dias like one hundred 826 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:25,719 Speaker 2: percent a crossover name in every sports fans mind. I 827 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,560 Speaker 2: can argue, No, let me flip that around and say 828 00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 2: Nate Diaz if he hadn't thought Connor forget twice? But 829 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 2: ever in what we're what two of the three biggest 830 00:39:35,560 --> 00:39:40,200 Speaker 2: pay per views in UFC history. Dude, he's he's What 831 00:39:40,360 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 2: is he? I don't want to say he's nothing? What 832 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:42,759 Speaker 2: is he? Right now? 833 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 3: Luke? 834 00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 2: What is he? He's not a household name, dude, right. 835 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 2: I mean it's obvious, it's so so and that's not 836 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 2: some revelation. Okay, b see that's stupid, but you get 837 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 2: the point. So you know, yeah, man, I mean I 838 00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,879 Speaker 2: want to just hedge this a bit and be fair 839 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 2: as I've been told shout out Brandon Wise and CBS 840 00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:04,759 Speaker 2: Sports that if you listen to the audio in the 841 00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 2: John Morgan interview, it's not as strong from Dana as 842 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,680 Speaker 2: the as the poll quote would make you think. 843 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's not a denunciation, like dude, when does 844 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: like the fact that he's hedging tells you he's hedging right. 845 00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:19,799 Speaker 2: And also look he he summed it up. I saw 846 00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,200 Speaker 2: a part of his interview with Aaron Brownsteader where Dana 847 00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 2: just look, you know, tired and exasperated by he was 848 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,040 Speaker 2: mentioning the Ukraine situation and everything going on, and he 849 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 2: was just like, look, everyone's always asking me what's next 850 00:40:30,480 --> 00:40:32,640 Speaker 2: for Connery. He's like, I don't even know what's gonna happen, 851 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,719 Speaker 2: you know, three months from now. And I think it's 852 00:40:34,719 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 2: just his way of saying, like, you know, you can 853 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,279 Speaker 2: ask me and I can answer, but like, I don't 854 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:42,400 Speaker 2: really know. But with that said, Luke, of course they 855 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,399 Speaker 2: will do this. Of course, a freaking course they would. 856 00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:48,360 Speaker 2: And it doesn't matter if olivera orgate, she wins, and like, 857 00:40:48,719 --> 00:40:50,759 Speaker 2: you know, we we joke back and forth. I think 858 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 2: you you and I and Mikey mormal producer just had 859 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,120 Speaker 2: like a tech stream of going. It's like, Okay, here's 860 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:57,920 Speaker 2: how Islam can get a title shot. If only Dana 861 00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,319 Speaker 2: can convince Abib to come back for one more fight, 862 00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 2: and then we can guarantee Islama title shot. It's like, 863 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 2: you know, the UFC of course would bend over backwards 864 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,520 Speaker 2: to do Habib Connor two in any form of situation. 865 00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 2: It's the biggest selling fight in MMA history by freaking far. 866 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,319 Speaker 2: It's two of the greatest of all time. It's got 867 00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 2: a hatred rivalry that really at times can make John 868 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,480 Speaker 2: Jones and Cormier look like they're you know, best buddies. 869 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,000 Speaker 2: But Luke the bet the next best thing of that 870 00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:29,319 Speaker 2: would have to be Connor McGregor stumbling back into the 871 00:41:29,400 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 2: lightweight title and fighting unbeaten Islam Maha chev with with 872 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,600 Speaker 2: with uh with a beab in his corner. Dude, that's 873 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:40,879 Speaker 2: the next best like scenario for the UFC, like of 874 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:43,680 Speaker 2: oh hell yeah is Luke, Dude. 875 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:46,000 Speaker 1: It's it's like, if you're the UFC, I don't know 876 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 1: why you wouldn't do it. Who else, depending who's champion 877 00:41:49,200 --> 00:41:53,439 Speaker 1: justin Charles, you name it, who else? Assuming they beat 878 00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:57,840 Speaker 1: Connor is going to be that transformative for them anywhere. Like, 879 00:41:57,920 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 1: if you are the UFC and you're looking at Honor's 880 00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:03,560 Speaker 1: long term potential, it's not super significant at this point. Obviously, 881 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: what he's done has been arguably the most significant, and 882 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,600 Speaker 1: it would be foolish to discount his chances. But I 883 00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,719 Speaker 1: doubt his best days are ahead. I doubt that, right, 884 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,640 Speaker 1: some good days potentially, but it's very like he's going 885 00:42:15,719 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: to match or exceed what he did at UFC two 886 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 1: of five. I find that very hard to believe his 887 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:21,439 Speaker 1: best days are behind him. And so if you're thinking 888 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:25,200 Speaker 1: about the UFC long term, either a Connor being champion 889 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,520 Speaker 1: is great for you, right, that's just a fucking win, 890 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 1: or someone beating Connor is also good for you. In 891 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:33,799 Speaker 1: all of these cases putting Connor in that mix like 892 00:42:33,840 --> 00:42:37,360 Speaker 1: there is still, however, much the value equation has changed 893 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,879 Speaker 1: about exactly why they want to fight Connor. Yes, money, 894 00:42:39,920 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 1: of course has been pre eminent and will remain preeminent, 895 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:43,759 Speaker 1: but there's also a few other reasons why they want 896 00:42:43,800 --> 00:42:45,880 Speaker 1: to do it. Even though some of those have shifted 897 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:49,800 Speaker 1: around in certain places, the overall picture BC is quite clear. 898 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 1: It is still extremely valuable for champions to want to 899 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,320 Speaker 1: fight him. It is still extremely valuable for the UFC 900 00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:59,680 Speaker 1: too want to make these fights. The fans won't in totality, 901 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,360 Speaker 1: certain or even in large numbers, they won't revolt. So 902 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:06,120 Speaker 1: I ask, whether you like these facts or whether you 903 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:09,479 Speaker 1: don't like these facts, what is the mechanism by which 904 00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:13,640 Speaker 1: they will be stopped. I don't see it. I just 905 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:14,359 Speaker 1: don't see it. 906 00:43:15,040 --> 00:43:18,000 Speaker 2: Yep, yep, that's that's just the way it is, Luke. 907 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 2: I think that's what Bruce Hornsby once said, and then 908 00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:22,879 Speaker 2: then they put it on a pretty badass Tupac song. 909 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. 910 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:26,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, told you I played basketball with him my freshman 911 00:43:26,239 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 1: year in college. All right too? 912 00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:29,320 Speaker 2: Who Tupac? 913 00:43:30,120 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 1: Bruce Hornsby, Bruce period, Yeah, he lived, he lived in Williamsburg. 914 00:43:34,640 --> 00:43:37,439 Speaker 2: Yeah wait wait, how do you just hide this, dude? 915 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,279 Speaker 2: I love me some Bruce Hornsby. I got that. 916 00:43:39,360 --> 00:43:41,320 Speaker 1: I told you, I told you before my freshman No, 917 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,400 Speaker 1: it's true story. My freshman year, I was playing basketball 918 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,840 Speaker 1: at our local gym with just some friends and he 919 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 1: was there playing pickup basketball. We just weaved on right in. 920 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: That's its simple as that. I didn't even know who 921 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:51,840 Speaker 1: he was at first. 922 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 2: So can you describe his game? Dude, I'm very into this. 923 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:55,399 Speaker 2: I'm way too. 924 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,479 Speaker 1: This was a long time ago. 925 00:43:56,640 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 2: Now. 926 00:43:56,840 --> 00:43:59,640 Speaker 1: He played like he was an n shape, regular old man. 927 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:02,200 Speaker 1: Hit a couple of screens, hit a couple of jumps. 928 00:44:02,640 --> 00:44:06,240 Speaker 2: It wasn't fun. He was probably like, yeah, yeah. 929 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: Yeah he was, Yes, he was. He was pretty good. 930 00:44:09,320 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 2: Yo, yo. Prince would have took Bruce hornsby to the 931 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 2: whole billy hole. You know what I'm saying. 932 00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:15,640 Speaker 1: You know, you know wous after he dunks. 933 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 2: Yeahah, well and then and then served him pancakes in 934 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:19,120 Speaker 2: that ass. 935 00:44:20,120 --> 00:44:21,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, Bruce Horns we could ball a little bit. He 936 00:44:21,600 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 1: could a little bit. Damn what I was. I was like, 937 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:27,240 Speaker 1: I was like, I was like, thanks for that Mandolin 938 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:30,480 Speaker 1: Rain song. It's good. I like it. It's great song. 939 00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:33,880 Speaker 2: Every time I think, Luke, that you know that the 940 00:44:33,960 --> 00:44:36,560 Speaker 2: limits of me being wowed by you, or that our 941 00:44:36,600 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 2: friendship or relationship could get any better, right, It's only 942 00:44:39,160 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 2: can get worse from here, Like fuck you. These moments, Luke, 943 00:44:42,360 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 2: just just remind me that you know we have more 944 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 2: to mine from each other. Luke, Okay, we ain't going nowhere, 945 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:49,240 Speaker 2: all right. 946 00:44:49,239 --> 00:44:52,680 Speaker 1: I've lived a surprising and immensely stupid life. There's a 947 00:44:52,719 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 1: lot to talk about, all right, things that are not stupid. However, 948 00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:58,600 Speaker 1: topic number three, Hamsa Shamaya is probably going to take 949 00:44:58,600 --> 00:45:01,160 Speaker 1: on Gilbert Burns again. Dana White telling the Underground through 950 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 1: John Morgan quote, it's happening now. If it does happen, 951 00:45:04,040 --> 00:45:07,440 Speaker 1: it is looked to be at April ninths UFC two 952 00:45:07,600 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: seventy three pay per view event, of course, which would 953 00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:12,640 Speaker 1: be in Jacksonville, Florida. BC. We knew this was kind 954 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 1: of coming. We had heard some rumors. It's been room 955 00:45:14,280 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 1: or out there in the public for some time. Not 956 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,640 Speaker 1: official official, but something pretty close to it, OKABC. The 957 00:45:19,760 --> 00:45:24,560 Speaker 1: significance of this fight is extraordinary because if Colby beats Jorge, 958 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,400 Speaker 1: he is going to be in at least a good 959 00:45:26,440 --> 00:45:29,840 Speaker 1: position for a title shot, all things being equal. However, 960 00:45:30,120 --> 00:45:33,279 Speaker 1: if hamzat Chimayah wins true or false BC, and let's 961 00:45:33,320 --> 00:45:36,960 Speaker 1: say he wins authoritatively, he's going to leap frog Colby 962 00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:37,920 Speaker 1: for the next title shot. 963 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 2: Oh hell, oh yes, oh yes, he will. Luke, We've 964 00:45:40,680 --> 00:45:44,200 Speaker 2: had this debate before. It would have been hella aggressive, 965 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:49,919 Speaker 2: but I think you could and somewhat arguably should even 966 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:54,480 Speaker 2: make Tremaiah of usman right now, because what we don't 967 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 2: know about this guy is just so damn sexy that 968 00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,160 Speaker 2: finding it out at that level would be wild, Luke. 969 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,000 Speaker 2: It could also break a guy, and you know, we've 970 00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 2: seen guys get get rushed too quickly or get up 971 00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:08,719 Speaker 2: you know. But I don't think anything's gonna break shamia If. 972 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:09,960 Speaker 2: And oh, by the way, Luke, you know, I mean, 973 00:46:09,960 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 2: I've never really been a monster Darren tilfan. I've been 974 00:46:12,200 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 2: spending most of my on air career telling you how 975 00:46:14,640 --> 00:46:18,319 Speaker 2: overrated he is. This brotherhood between chamayav Until that's coming 976 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,239 Speaker 2: out through social media, isn't it like heartwarming? 977 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:24,719 Speaker 1: I don't follow either on social but I did see 978 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,759 Speaker 1: the videos of them training together. Dude, it can only 979 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,719 Speaker 1: be good for Darren Till. I think mixing it up 980 00:46:28,719 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 1: and getting some you know, intense energy like that guy 981 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,360 Speaker 1: brings to the training room, that's what he needs. 982 00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,239 Speaker 2: I think a little bit right now, when Till comes 983 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 2: out and says, I see so much of myself and him, 984 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 2: you know, I love that, like you know, it transcends 985 00:46:42,280 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 2: cultures and language and like you know, like it's like 986 00:46:45,600 --> 00:46:47,640 Speaker 2: you and I Luke, we come from opposite ends of 987 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:50,080 Speaker 2: the journalism tracks, yet you put us together and we 988 00:46:50,160 --> 00:46:52,719 Speaker 2: find out we've got a lot of the same similarities 989 00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:54,719 Speaker 2: that drive us. You know what I'm saying. The packaging 990 00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:57,680 Speaker 2: is a little bit different, but you know, I love 991 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 2: seeing this. So back to the significant of this fight. Yeah, dude, 992 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 2: to me, this is and we you know, we thought 993 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:06,120 Speaker 2: this could take different forms, like who is Tremiah finally 994 00:47:06,160 --> 00:47:09,360 Speaker 2: gonna fight to show us whether the hype is really real. 995 00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:11,720 Speaker 2: There were a lot of names floated around in dates, 996 00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 2: and we had to wait a long time to get 997 00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:15,880 Speaker 2: to this point with the bad COVID run that Tamia 998 00:47:15,920 --> 00:47:18,840 Speaker 2: have had in all that, but Gilbert Burns is the 999 00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:22,279 Speaker 2: right opponent to give us these answers. And yes, this 1000 00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:26,280 Speaker 2: is the the proving ground that somebody this uniquely special. 1001 00:47:26,320 --> 00:47:30,040 Speaker 2: And we've had bright prospects before. I mean, you remember 1002 00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 2: when John Jones was you know, three UFC wins in 1003 00:47:35,040 --> 00:47:38,160 Speaker 2: and you were getting people saying, like, dude, this guy 1004 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 2: really might have like greatest of all time future potential 1005 00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 2: maybe one day, like there were some flashes of that, 1006 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:48,439 Speaker 2: but I can't remember this organically where somebody went from 1007 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,000 Speaker 2: I've never heard of this guy to you know what 1008 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 2: he did in twenty twenty and now like me making 1009 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,400 Speaker 2: some stupid argument that I should be fighting for the title. Now, 1010 00:47:56,719 --> 00:48:01,720 Speaker 2: I can't wait the theater potential. What Jamiah Burns offers 1011 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:05,359 Speaker 2: just from that is this mother effort for real, like 1012 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 2: show us bro, because you might be so real that 1013 00:48:08,360 --> 00:48:10,720 Speaker 2: you may finish Gilbert Burns in a minute and a half. 1014 00:48:10,719 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 2: Like we have no frickin idea here. I can't wait 1015 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 2: to find out. 1016 00:48:14,760 --> 00:48:16,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, this is the part about Gilbert Burns 1017 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,080 Speaker 1: that I love. First of all, Gilbert Burns might go 1018 00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,320 Speaker 1: in there and just remind everyone, Hello, I'm Gilbert Burns, 1019 00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 1: and I think you all forgot what I'm capable of 1020 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,480 Speaker 1: sty drop usman. 1021 00:48:24,560 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 2: We always forget about it. I rocked him. 1022 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,680 Speaker 1: He rocked him. He rocked him. He didn't drop him, 1023 00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:29,719 Speaker 1: but he certainly rocked him. And also just like he 1024 00:48:29,840 --> 00:48:32,279 Speaker 1: is a legitimate it's not just a guy who has 1025 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 1: a black belt at like the purple belt or something 1026 00:48:34,120 --> 00:48:37,400 Speaker 1: like in the black belt division, a real world champion 1027 00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:39,880 Speaker 1: crossing over. We know about his striking, we know he's 1028 00:48:39,920 --> 00:48:42,120 Speaker 1: in the right weight class. Now we know about his wrestling. 1029 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 1: I mean, the thing about Gilbert is that he's the 1030 00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,200 Speaker 1: perfect opponent for Tremiah, because if you lose his it's 1031 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:48,799 Speaker 1: like no harm, no foul, you still have some work 1032 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:51,520 Speaker 1: to do. But if you win, you are beating a 1033 00:48:51,560 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 1: guy who I'm not gonna say any fighter is perfect 1034 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:57,600 Speaker 1: or has fully mastered everything in MMA, but guy who 1035 00:48:57,640 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: has championship level experience lead jiu jitsu, very good wrestling, 1036 00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 1: certainly very good striking at this point, too good cardio, 1037 00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,319 Speaker 1: good camp. Like you can't beat a guy who as 1038 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,960 Speaker 1: as thoroughly you can always be guy. I mean, he's 1039 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:12,839 Speaker 1: not the most talented guy. What I'm saying is it's 1040 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,680 Speaker 1: rare for a prospect who is surging to get an 1041 00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:19,239 Speaker 1: opponent where beating him tells you almost everything you need 1042 00:49:19,280 --> 00:49:22,160 Speaker 1: to know something you would ordinarily need to get BC 1043 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,359 Speaker 1: through the the case of multiple fight experiences, like how 1044 00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,319 Speaker 1: do they work against this guy or then against that 1045 00:49:27,360 --> 00:49:30,000 Speaker 1: guy or against that guy? You beat Gilbert Burns, you 1046 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,280 Speaker 1: answer a lot of those questions in one fell swoop. 1047 00:49:33,719 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 1: I don't know what happens after that, but I know 1048 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 1: that any lingering doubts about SHAMIAV should that happen, would 1049 00:49:38,719 --> 00:49:41,360 Speaker 1: probably evaporate instantly at that point. 1050 00:49:42,080 --> 00:49:44,719 Speaker 2: Well, look, if you would you say that this is 1051 00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:47,240 Speaker 2: the most hyped. I mean, Aaron Pico had a hype 1052 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:50,000 Speaker 2: level coming into his pro debut that was huge. But 1053 00:49:50,600 --> 00:49:54,040 Speaker 2: I mean, like I mentioned, people, people made whispers about 1054 00:49:54,080 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 2: John Jones very early, but I'm not sure we all 1055 00:49:56,560 --> 00:50:00,040 Speaker 2: had like that one hundred percent like confidence that no, 1056 00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:01,560 Speaker 2: no matter what, he's just gonna go out there and 1057 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:04,359 Speaker 2: be Hall of Famer after Hall of Famer after Hall 1058 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 2: of Famer and win the title and be who he 1059 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:09,000 Speaker 2: is now the greatest fighter I've ever seen, more more 1060 00:50:09,080 --> 00:50:11,000 Speaker 2: or less. I mean, you know, there's arguments to be made, 1061 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:15,320 Speaker 2: but more or less the goat. Can you compare this 1062 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 2: this Hamza meteor? It's like bo Jackson, Dude, Like, what 1063 00:50:18,560 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 2: have we seen mma wise recently that compares to this? 1064 00:50:24,400 --> 00:50:26,680 Speaker 2: I mean Johnny Walker, but not even Johnny Walker. The 1065 00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:29,840 Speaker 2: scent coming from Johnny Walker. Wasn't this legitimate? 1066 00:50:29,960 --> 00:50:35,600 Speaker 1: Luke, No, this is like it's got It's it's like 1067 00:50:35,640 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: a mix of Habib with this is not quite right, 1068 00:50:38,520 --> 00:50:40,600 Speaker 1: but I mean just the just the quickness with which 1069 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:42,720 Speaker 1: people are asking him to be in these huge fights. 1070 00:50:43,400 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 1: It's like Habib mixed with the push behind Brock Lesner almost. 1071 00:50:48,080 --> 00:50:49,520 Speaker 1: I mean, that's not quite right, because he had this 1072 00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:52,520 Speaker 1: huge popularity base before evercoming here. But what I mean 1073 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:54,480 Speaker 1: to say was after and he lost his first fight 1074 00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 1: against mer. But what I mean to say was once 1075 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 1: he began to write the ship, it was like this 1076 00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 1: meteor headed right for the top of the division. Granted 1077 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,759 Speaker 1: was Randy Coutur at the time, that the comparison falls apart. 1078 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:05,400 Speaker 1: I'm just trying to say Habib had this kind of 1079 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,640 Speaker 1: slow ish role. All these guys you mentioned had this 1080 00:51:07,719 --> 00:51:09,319 Speaker 1: slowish role. I'm trying to think of someone who had 1081 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 1: this quick roll but then had all of the game 1082 00:51:11,719 --> 00:51:14,200 Speaker 1: behind it. In many ways, it is entirely unique. I'm 1083 00:51:14,239 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 1: not really sure what the antecedent to this would be. 1084 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,840 Speaker 1: Quite frankly, I you know, and I'm smitting. 1085 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:24,440 Speaker 2: I'm smitting with Jamaiah, like his persona, his you know, 1086 00:51:24,600 --> 00:51:30,200 Speaker 2: his confidence and mixed with cockiness. It's it's it's pretty addictive, Luke. 1087 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:32,560 Speaker 2: You know, it's hard to hate. Well, really, it's hard 1088 00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:35,120 Speaker 2: to hate. He wants it. He wants all that smart look. 1089 00:51:35,160 --> 00:51:38,399 Speaker 2: He wants to move in with Cypress Hill and have 1090 00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:41,360 Speaker 2: that smoke backpack thing put around his face with the torch. 1091 00:51:41,840 --> 00:51:42,719 Speaker 2: He wants all of it. 1092 00:51:42,719 --> 00:51:46,239 Speaker 1: Luke, listen until he wants to stand inside of a 1093 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:48,680 Speaker 1: life size bong. I don't believe that, but I know 1094 00:51:48,719 --> 00:51:50,840 Speaker 1: what you all right, let's move on, Hold on, let 1095 00:51:50,920 --> 00:51:53,040 Speaker 1: me finish this. We see we got we gotta move along. 1096 00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,399 Speaker 2: We got to move for I make this joke, all right, Luke, 1097 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,280 Speaker 2: I'm you know, look on a second by second basis. 1098 00:51:58,320 --> 00:51:59,799 Speaker 2: I'm trying to entertain as much as I can. Right, 1099 00:51:59,840 --> 00:52:00,960 Speaker 2: don't don't. 1100 00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:03,440 Speaker 1: Neuter me, Okay, I know, I know, I know I'm 1101 00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 1: not trying to all right, topic number four and this 1102 00:52:05,840 --> 00:52:11,280 Speaker 1: will kick off in three minutes, so Errol Spence Junior, 1103 00:52:11,680 --> 00:52:13,160 Speaker 1: I think I can get to this now.

The 1111 00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 1: presser today is at Jerry's World in Dallas, BC. What 1112 00:52:37,160 --> 00:52:40,600 Speaker 1: is the number one reason for folks to care about 1113 00:52:40,640 --> 00:52:44,760 Speaker 1: Aerol Spence Junior versus your Dennis Ugas the number one reason. 1114 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:47,839 Speaker 2: Oh and also quickly, Jerry Jones, the the you know 1115 00:52:47,920 --> 00:52:50,080 Speaker 2: that you mentioned, he'll be part of this press conference 1116 00:52:50,120 --> 00:52:54,840 Speaker 2: as well. Look, number one reason is the significance of 1117 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 2: the fight. 1118 00:52:55,160 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: Let's April sixteenth, April sixteenth, April sixteenth. 1119 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:02,319 Speaker 2: You know at and T Coup Stadium. There the significance 1120 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:04,680 Speaker 2: of the fight. What is welter weight It's it's this, 1121 00:53:04,880 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 2: you know, it's the sexy division. It's the one that's 1122 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:08,680 Speaker 2: carried this the sport and a pay per view level 1123 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 2: through heavyweights ups and downs in recent eras. And this 1124 00:53:12,360 --> 00:53:16,160 Speaker 2: is for three of the four world titles. Uh, that's 1125 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:20,400 Speaker 2: number one, no question about it. It's getting us closer 1126 00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:23,200 Speaker 2: to finding out who is not only the best waltzweight 1127 00:53:23,239 --> 00:53:25,359 Speaker 2: in the world, but once we find that answer out, 1128 00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 2: that answer will simultaneously be who's the best welterweight of 1129 00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,920 Speaker 2: this era? And in the post you know, Manny Floyd 1130 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:35,200 Speaker 2: welterweight era. It's a pretty big deal. But one b 1131 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,960 Speaker 2: to that, to that, what's most important, Luke the The 1132 00:53:39,000 --> 00:53:43,799 Speaker 2: subhead to that is is Eryl Spence still the same guy? 1133 00:53:44,760 --> 00:53:46,880 Speaker 2: And like you, you don't have to like I'm not 1134 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 2: being critical here, I'm not being cynical, like I'm the 1135 00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: biggest Aerol Spence junior fan in terms of his game 1136 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:54,480 Speaker 2: as anyone. I've been flip flopping the who would win 1137 00:53:54,640 --> 00:53:57,560 Speaker 2: between him and Terrence Crawford debate for years because I 1138 00:53:57,600 --> 00:54:01,360 Speaker 2: believe Spence is this good despite some of those outside 1139 00:54:01,400 --> 00:54:04,480 Speaker 2: the ring things that are now piling up, you know, 1140 00:54:04,600 --> 00:54:09,520 Speaker 2: question wise, I don't think we question any more Spence's focus, 1141 00:54:09,640 --> 00:54:12,400 Speaker 2: or his commitment, or whether he's cleaned up some of 1142 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,279 Speaker 2: those outside the ring things. And let's remember, you know, 1143 00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:17,919 Speaker 2: he was more than lucky, miraculous to walk away from 1144 00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:21,560 Speaker 2: that that you know, drunk driving crash with nothing basically 1145 00:54:21,640 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 2: after getting thrown from his vehicle. But now he's in 1146 00:54:24,640 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 2: his early thirties, he's had another year long layoff. He 1147 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:29,600 Speaker 2: had to pull out of that Manny pay per view 1148 00:54:29,600 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 2: because of the detached retina. So that's now something potentially 1149 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 2: legitimately physically compromising, mixed with the fact that he walked 1150 00:54:38,560 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 2: away from this horrific crash that knocked out his teeth 1151 00:54:41,400 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 2: and you know, banged him up a little bit, You 1152 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 2: do wonder Luke if Aerol Spence Junior is not you know, 1153 00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:52,319 Speaker 2: ninety percent of what makes him great, You damn right. 1154 00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 2: This is a trap fight because your Dennis Zugas is 1155 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:57,440 Speaker 2: that good. Whether we get the best Spence or not, 1156 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:01,239 Speaker 2: he is in this fight. He is under The performance 1157 00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,560 Speaker 2: he put on Pachiel on the last minute was was 1158 00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:08,680 Speaker 2: exactly what makes him a the black not the black sheep, 1159 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:12,040 Speaker 2: the sort of like the guy you're gonna overlook, but 1160 00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:15,520 Speaker 2: the guy who may end up surprising everyone. Can he 1161 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:17,880 Speaker 2: beat the very best of Earl Spence? I don't know. 1162 00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,359 Speaker 2: I'd question that a little, But is the very best 1163 00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 2: of a reel Spence still able to walk through that 1164 00:55:23,600 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 2: door April sixteenth. 1165 00:55:24,760 --> 00:55:30,879 Speaker 1: Lute From a tactical perspective, one of the things that 1166 00:55:31,200 --> 00:55:33,520 Speaker 1: a guy like Spence does extremely well. By the way, 1167 00:55:33,520 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 1: a second, all of your analysis, all of the stuff 1168 00:55:35,440 --> 00:55:37,759 Speaker 1: that's happened to Spence makes this question can he be 1169 00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:40,320 Speaker 1: the very best of what we've seen? Moreover, what I 1170 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:43,359 Speaker 1: would add is that a lot of the offense of 1171 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:48,560 Speaker 1: what Spence tries, he is a diligent, thorough, consistent jab. 1172 00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:51,960 Speaker 1: He really lives and not dies behind him. But man, 1173 00:55:51,960 --> 00:55:54,680 Speaker 1: he lives behind that jab. That job is critical to 1174 00:55:54,719 --> 00:55:58,279 Speaker 1: everything he does, and your Dennis Ugas has a phenomenal 1175 00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:01,480 Speaker 1: ability to counter opponents who have a great inconsistent job. 1176 00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 1: He has excellent jab defense and then offense off of 1177 00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:06,759 Speaker 1: that defense. So not only are the things that BC 1178 00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:10,200 Speaker 1: is saying quite correct about what we don't know actually 1179 00:56:10,239 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 1: about Aerol Spence Junior, there is you add another layer 1180 00:56:13,840 --> 00:56:18,360 Speaker 1: of complexity to what Ugas offers as an opponent, and man, 1181 00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:20,719 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you if you're right, BC, If this way, 1182 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:22,879 Speaker 1: if we had real confidence, we would get the very 1183 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 1: best of Aerol Spence Junior. I'd say this is a 1184 00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:27,880 Speaker 1: tough fight, but winnable one for Spence. But given that 1185 00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,920 Speaker 1: we don't know and how Ugas seemingly has developed these 1186 00:56:31,000 --> 00:56:34,719 Speaker 1: very important skills do this is a very, very, very 1187 00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:38,000 Speaker 1: competitive fight and I cannot wait to see what Aero 1188 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:41,360 Speaker 1: Spence Junior does. One quick question to you, if Spence 1189 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:45,439 Speaker 1: goes in there and shows us elite Spence, does that 1190 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:50,759 Speaker 1: meaningfully add to the pressure behind Bud Crawford to sign 1191 00:56:50,800 --> 00:56:51,440 Speaker 1: with PBC. 1192 00:56:53,480 --> 00:56:57,480 Speaker 2: Yes, I think that that firmly points it back to 1193 00:56:57,520 --> 00:56:59,600 Speaker 2: Bud Crawford and says, look, what are you after? At 1194 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:02,879 Speaker 2: the end of the day because PBC, al Hayman and Narrow. 1195 00:57:02,920 --> 00:57:06,359 Speaker 2: Spence would have the would have the leverage financially to say, look, 1196 00:57:06,400 --> 00:57:08,359 Speaker 2: you know, we've been arguing for years and we never 1197 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:10,120 Speaker 2: made this fight. And some of that argument was the 1198 00:57:10,120 --> 00:57:13,000 Speaker 2: perse split. Although to be fair, Luke, I never felt 1199 00:57:13,000 --> 00:57:17,720 Speaker 2: like either network or promoter really went all the way 1200 00:57:17,800 --> 00:57:19,919 Speaker 2: and trying to secure that fight. And the reason why 1201 00:57:20,000 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 2: is because when you start to talk, the demands on 1202 00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:25,200 Speaker 2: both sides were, no, I'm the a side, I'm the 1203 00:57:25,200 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 2: guy that gets the larger split. You know, did they 1204 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:29,919 Speaker 2: ever come together and figure out a fifty to fifty deal? 1205 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:33,840 Speaker 2: I don't believe they ever did. So if your team, Spence, dude, 1206 00:57:33,840 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 2: you'd have the ability to hold that leverage firm and 1207 00:57:36,400 --> 00:57:39,160 Speaker 2: you'd be basically saying, Terrence Crawford, you know you're not 1208 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 2: getting any younger either. What are you thirty four about 1209 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:44,800 Speaker 2: to turn thirty five? This is the window to make 1210 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:47,120 Speaker 2: this and not ruin it. I mean you have to realize, Luke, 1211 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 2: did many pack you on Floyd Mayweather come five to 1212 00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:52,600 Speaker 2: five and a half years too late? Yes, but but 1213 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 2: they were still number one and two pound for pound 1214 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:57,880 Speaker 2: at the time, even though they were thirty eight and 1215 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,320 Speaker 2: thirty six, and even with me his shoulder injury. However, 1216 00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 2: you know, however deep you want to believe that affected him, 1217 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 2: it wasn't. You know, the action fight we probably would 1218 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:10,120 Speaker 2: have got five years earlier, but we did get questions 1219 00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,760 Speaker 2: answered and that was not a washed many pakiaw right. 1220 00:58:12,840 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 2: So you don't want to take a chance of batching this. 1221 00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 2: So you're basically saying, hey, hey, Bud, what does it 1222 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:21,360 Speaker 2: mean to you to take less to make it happen, 1223 00:58:21,440 --> 00:58:24,880 Speaker 2: to to fulfill your legacy and cement it. And because look, 1224 00:58:24,880 --> 00:58:26,240 Speaker 2: I'm gonna be honest with you, with you, Luke, if 1225 00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 2: Terrence Crawford does not go to the PBC, I don't 1226 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:32,720 Speaker 2: he doesn't have options. Eddie Hern already said, look, we're 1227 00:58:32,720 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 2: not gonna just overpay him to try to have the 1228 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:36,680 Speaker 2: same problem as top rank. Did you know, could he 1229 00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:39,760 Speaker 2: end up fighting Virgil Ortiz Junior from the Golden Boys side? Yeah, 1230 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:41,480 Speaker 2: I mean that'd be great, but that's still a one 1231 00:58:41,520 --> 00:58:45,080 Speaker 2: off with no real gain for Bud. You know, could 1232 00:58:45,080 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 2: he go back to top rank and fight the Josh 1233 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 2: Taylor or tail Femo Rising? Well maybe, but you know 1234 00:58:50,280 --> 00:58:52,320 Speaker 2: you also just sued Bob Barry mcclough them a racist. 1235 00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 2: So yeah, Luke, that is because I was gonna ask 1236 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 2: you that same question. I was gonna say, we all 1237 00:58:57,120 --> 00:59:00,360 Speaker 2: know we we want and deserve Crawford to be next 1238 00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 2: for the winner, regardless if it's Spencer Ugas, but knowing 1239 00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,960 Speaker 2: the business reality, it ends up being Keith Thurman against 1240 00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:11,080 Speaker 2: the winner. Does that movie? Does that get you excited? 1241 00:59:11,120 --> 00:59:18,920 Speaker 2: Because it's yes, still gets me, It still matters to me, Luke, Okay. 1242 00:59:17,800 --> 00:59:20,280 Speaker 1: No, no, don't get me wrong. Keith Thurman I thought 1243 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:23,280 Speaker 1: looked really good, all things considered, in his last fight. 1244 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:24,920 Speaker 1: I mean, not a perfect fight, last six one as 1245 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:26,200 Speaker 1: good as the first six, but he looked to be 1246 00:59:26,240 --> 00:59:28,720 Speaker 1: in phenomenal shape. And hey, that was what two fights 1247 00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:31,640 Speaker 1: in five years or something like, all things being equal, 1248 00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 1: I thought that was pretty good. So sure, winner of 1249 00:59:34,400 --> 00:59:36,320 Speaker 1: this one taken on Keith Thurman. I'm not gonna complain 1250 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 1: about that at all. I'm just saying, it's like, dude, 1251 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:41,840 Speaker 1: at this point, at this point with Spence and Crawford 1252 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,920 Speaker 1: not being made, and really I would say the onus 1253 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:47,280 Speaker 1: is more on Crawford. Given the contractual realities of the 1254 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 1: present moment. You could go back and forth and say 1255 00:59:49,080 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 1: the blame goes in different directions from previous points. But 1256 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,360 Speaker 1: at this stage it's like, yes, of course, but if 1257 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:59,680 Speaker 1: Spence versus Crawford is not made within this year, it's like, 1258 01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:01,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you could probably say this already now, but 1259 01:00:01,680 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 1: it's like, dude, there's no real good reason why it 1260 01:00:04,240 --> 01:00:06,720 Speaker 1: hasn't been made. There are reasons, I'm not sure any 1261 01:00:06,760 --> 01:00:08,439 Speaker 1: of them are all that good. If there was real 1262 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:12,280 Speaker 1: interest in the in the power brokers to make this fight, 1263 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,520 Speaker 1: it would be made. It just seems kind of silly 1264 01:00:15,560 --> 01:00:18,280 Speaker 1: at this point. So everything else, Dude, Spence Ugus this 1265 01:00:18,400 --> 01:00:20,439 Speaker 1: is actually the best fight for Spence to come back 1266 01:00:20,480 --> 01:00:22,800 Speaker 1: to in a sense, right because he has been off 1267 01:00:22,840 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 1: for some time, and Ugas is a real tricky opponent 1268 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,840 Speaker 1: with the particular kinds of things that he does. Spence 1269 01:00:29,880 --> 01:00:32,400 Speaker 1: beats that. You know, Okay, man, this guy is still 1270 01:00:32,440 --> 01:00:35,320 Speaker 1: ready for the very best of that division. Thurman has 1271 01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:37,160 Speaker 1: been interesting too. I would love to see it. I'm 1272 01:00:37,200 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 1: just saying, look, something could say they love that more 1273 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 1: than Crawford. I don't know what some. 1274 01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 2: Of that is is of course, the wounded, jaded boxing 1275 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:48,720 Speaker 2: fan in me who's saying, you know, forget getting what 1276 01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:50,520 Speaker 2: you want, sometimes we don't get it at all. So 1277 01:00:50,600 --> 01:00:52,080 Speaker 2: if I can get a thrmon pay per view, of 1278 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:54,280 Speaker 2: course I'm gonna be fired up and excited. And by 1279 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 2: the way, that's a you know, and it's an answer 1280 01:00:55,920 --> 01:00:57,840 Speaker 2: we never really got. Like we don't think Keith Thurman 1281 01:00:57,960 --> 01:01:00,120 Speaker 2: is the same Keith Thurman, although credit to him for 1282 01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 2: coming back and winning, but still Spence Thurman is a 1283 01:01:02,680 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 2: fight I always wanted to see the answer to. I 1284 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:06,760 Speaker 2: always wanted to see what that looked like. So you know, 1285 01:01:06,760 --> 01:01:08,280 Speaker 2: I'd love to see that. But quickly on knew Gus 1286 01:01:08,320 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 2: in closing, if you have no idea who this guy is. 1287 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:12,439 Speaker 2: So he's from Cuba, so you know he has that 1288 01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 2: pure amateur pedigree. But Luke, he's a lot big. He's 1289 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 2: very big for this weight class, very long arms, so 1290 01:01:19,320 --> 01:01:21,920 Speaker 2: he hides behind a high guard and I think almost 1291 01:01:21,960 --> 01:01:23,640 Speaker 2: like a think about a little Winkie, right, although he 1292 01:01:23,680 --> 01:01:26,760 Speaker 2: was a Southpaw winky Wright with those long arms and 1293 01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 2: that responsible guard was really able to close distance without 1294 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 2: giving up too much of his strike zone to be 1295 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 2: countered and start to weigh on you. And even though 1296 01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:39,960 Speaker 2: we don't look at us Hugus in spirit as a puncher, 1297 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:43,560 Speaker 2: as a knockout guy, his ability to use that size 1298 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:46,360 Speaker 2: and technique to get close to you and kind of 1299 01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,440 Speaker 2: body you like he did Manny and then put together 1300 01:01:49,480 --> 01:01:54,320 Speaker 2: the smart combinations encounters. He's pretty damn unique Luke in 1301 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,960 Speaker 2: terms of what he does. So and if you want 1302 01:01:57,000 --> 01:01:58,880 Speaker 2: to know who he beat, it's more of who he 1303 01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 2: should have beat. I thought he beat Sean Porter. I 1304 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:03,600 Speaker 2: thought he got screwed by Jack Reese on that knockdown 1305 01:02:03,600 --> 01:02:05,840 Speaker 2: in the twelfth round that wasn't called, and that would 1306 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,120 Speaker 2: have given Spence. I'm sorry. Ugasa is a split decision 1307 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 2: win over Sean Porter, and that's the version of Porter, 1308 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,640 Speaker 2: by the way, who his next fight fought Spence for 1309 01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 2: twelve rounds and lost by split decision in the fight 1310 01:02:16,680 --> 01:02:19,440 Speaker 2: of the Year. So you know that shows you what 1311 01:02:19,640 --> 01:02:20,240 Speaker 2: Ugas has. 1312 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and then the yes and then one more last 1313 01:02:24,040 --> 01:02:26,360 Speaker 1: reminder of this before we switched to quick hitters, that 1314 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: presser go right now. There's a link in the description 1315 01:02:29,360 --> 01:02:30,760 Speaker 1: box below if you want to check that out. You 1316 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,360 Speaker 1: can do dual screens or wherever you want to bookmarket 1317 01:02:33,360 --> 01:02:34,919 Speaker 1: for later if you want to keep watching the show, 1318 01:02:34,960 --> 01:02:39,320 Speaker 1: but the stream for Ugas or Spencer versus Spence. Excuse me, 1319 01:02:39,400 --> 01:02:43,960 Speaker 1: Junior versus Ugas it is already there. Go check that out. Okay, BC, Last, 1320 01:02:43,960 --> 01:02:45,919 Speaker 1: but not least, we go to quick hitters. I love 1321 01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:50,160 Speaker 1: this announcement. Valentina Chevchenko is going to take on Tyler 1322 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:53,600 Speaker 1: Santos a UFC two seventy five Tyler Santos PC. This is, 1323 01:02:53,640 --> 01:02:57,040 Speaker 1: of course be a woman's flyweight title fight nineteen and one. 1324 01:02:57,120 --> 01:02:58,880 Speaker 1: She does have one loss to I think the now 1325 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:05,320 Speaker 1: exiled mar Romero Brella. Yes, Mara Romero Brella from Italy, 1326 01:03:05,920 --> 01:03:07,920 Speaker 1: that's the one loss she has. Now. She does have 1327 01:03:07,960 --> 01:03:11,040 Speaker 1: some vulnerabilities when it comes to takedown defense or getting 1328 01:03:11,080 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 1: up off the bottom. It's not her very best work, 1329 01:03:13,200 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 1: so I'm ald expect you of Schenko to pursue that. 1330 01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:17,880 Speaker 1: We even saw on the Gillian Robertson fight although Robertson 1331 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:21,120 Speaker 1: was pulling guard. It's not her best area for work 1332 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: on the feet though she's a hammer, great counter striker, 1333 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:26,200 Speaker 1: very good athlete. Dude, nineteen o one, BC, you don't 1334 01:03:26,240 --> 01:03:28,760 Speaker 1: get there by accident. How sised are you, in the 1335 01:03:28,760 --> 01:03:30,720 Speaker 1: words of DC parlance for this contest. 1336 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,720 Speaker 2: Look, I'm I'm very excited that you're excited about this because, 1337 01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:38,640 Speaker 2: you know, sharing the news in the CBS slack. Yeah, 1338 01:03:38,720 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 2: Brandon Wise, my boy, I'm calling you out here. I 1339 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 2: didn't get the same genial or is it genital reaction 1340 01:03:45,280 --> 01:03:47,840 Speaker 2: that I was looking for, Luke. I love this fight. 1341 01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:51,480 Speaker 2: But why do I love this fight? Mostly because this 1342 01:03:51,480 --> 01:03:53,920 Speaker 2: this division is a shoe box full of shit, Luke 1343 01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:56,200 Speaker 2: to be you know, to be respectful. It is Luke, 1344 01:03:56,360 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 2: And there ain't nobody to challenge Valentino. And when we 1345 01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:02,960 Speaker 2: thought we had somebody and Jessica Andrage, holy shit, Luke. 1346 01:04:02,960 --> 01:04:06,600 Speaker 2: And now look, obviously Jennifer Maya did well in certain respects, 1347 01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 2: but still had the same you know result in the end. 1348 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:12,400 Speaker 2: This is at least somebody who's in you know, twenty 1349 01:04:12,440 --> 01:04:15,520 Speaker 2: eight and riding a four fight win streak and seems 1350 01:04:15,560 --> 01:04:17,400 Speaker 2: to be Luke. Tell me if I'm wrong. At the 1351 01:04:17,480 --> 01:04:21,800 Speaker 2: very least Tylia Santos, however, I can butcher that seems 1352 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:25,480 Speaker 2: to have a brighter ceiling to do something big in 1353 01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:28,720 Speaker 2: a fight that you didn't expect. That was lacking from 1354 01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:33,040 Speaker 2: pretty much every Chevchenko title defense not named Androge up 1355 01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:36,080 Speaker 2: to this point, Like you know, Chukegan's okay, and there 1356 01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 2: was I and there was all these others, but you 1357 01:04:38,080 --> 01:04:40,080 Speaker 2: didn't think there's a chance in hell they're gonna finish 1358 01:04:40,120 --> 01:04:43,560 Speaker 2: the champ or dominantly win five rounds. Right, there's at 1359 01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:47,160 Speaker 2: least something to Santos where I'm like, oh, let's see 1360 01:04:47,160 --> 01:04:49,040 Speaker 2: how how Valentina messes with this. 1361 01:04:50,960 --> 01:04:54,160 Speaker 1: You know, listen, do I think that Santos is going 1362 01:04:54,200 --> 01:04:56,880 Speaker 1: to be the person to unseat Chevchenko? I guess I 1363 01:04:56,920 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 1: would say that. I don't. I don't see that necessarily 1364 01:04:59,440 --> 01:05:01,320 Speaker 1: the BC. How many times we have to go through 1365 01:05:01,360 --> 01:05:03,320 Speaker 1: it in the case of last week where we have 1366 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:07,280 Speaker 1: Garcia upsetting Colbert, in the case of Catterall not upsetting Taylor, 1367 01:05:07,320 --> 01:05:09,400 Speaker 1: but probably should you should have to, and those are 1368 01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:12,560 Speaker 1: mandatory challenges. In the women's flyway division, it often feels 1369 01:05:12,640 --> 01:05:14,680 Speaker 1: like these are mandatory challengers. These are not people that 1370 01:05:14,720 --> 01:05:17,680 Speaker 1: are necessarily wowing you along the way, but they're doing 1371 01:05:17,800 --> 01:05:19,600 Speaker 1: just enough to put themselves in a position to get it. 1372 01:05:19,640 --> 01:05:21,760 Speaker 1: And I say it all the time, the hardest thing 1373 01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:24,320 Speaker 1: to do in MMA is have a weight class title, 1374 01:05:24,320 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 1: typically a UFC one, and just take on all the 1375 01:05:26,920 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 1: different contenders that want to crack at you. It's a 1376 01:05:29,760 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 1: very difficult thing to have that be their biggest night, 1377 01:05:32,360 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 1: and this just another routine obligation. You have to go 1378 01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 1: through these these upsets, these mistakes, so to speak, These 1379 01:05:39,040 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 1: things you don't see coming. They happen all the time, 1380 01:05:41,080 --> 01:05:43,240 Speaker 1: or at least they get threatened all the time. It 1381 01:05:43,320 --> 01:05:47,440 Speaker 1: is worth not dismissing Tyler Sentos while recognizing Chevchenko was 1382 01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 1: also not here by accident. I'm looking forward to it. 1383 01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:52,640 Speaker 1: I find these fights to be sometimes the most illuminating 1384 01:05:52,640 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 1: ones be see if I can be honest with you, Luke, 1385 01:05:54,520 --> 01:05:55,040 Speaker 1: But is it. 1386 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:57,840 Speaker 2: Fair to say that until I can't think of who's 1387 01:05:57,880 --> 01:06:00,000 Speaker 2: the UFC fighter that one tough and as a wrestler 1388 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:03,200 Speaker 2: and hasn't foughten like in a crazy long time because 1389 01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:04,960 Speaker 2: she's been injured and that has now moved up. 1390 01:06:05,080 --> 01:06:10,520 Speaker 1: Oh uh uh I can she beat? 1391 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 2: I spent the last minute unable to find this in 1392 01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:15,120 Speaker 2: my brain. 1393 01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:18,840 Speaker 1: Luke, Okay, Jesus, yes, I'll find it. Yeah, sorry, she 1394 01:06:18,880 --> 01:06:22,520 Speaker 1: has a I mean we're straight up, I mean we're 1395 01:06:22,800 --> 01:06:25,439 Speaker 1: the we're the worst people in America right now. 1396 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 2: So to try to sit here and just you know, 1397 01:06:27,680 --> 01:06:29,160 Speaker 2: looks like, you know, should I look it up or 1398 01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:31,720 Speaker 2: just vape again? That's really where we're at right now, Luke, 1399 01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 2: to be fair, you know, I still don't have it. 1400 01:06:35,480 --> 01:06:38,480 Speaker 1: She has the she god, what is her name? We 1401 01:06:38,560 --> 01:06:39,920 Speaker 1: are old and pathetic. 1402 01:06:40,240 --> 01:06:42,680 Speaker 2: You know, she's great. She's a great fighter. No, seriously, 1403 01:06:42,720 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 2: she's got plus side potential to do something in a 1404 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,880 Speaker 2: chef chain go fight, you know, so memorable. I can't 1405 01:06:48,880 --> 01:06:50,640 Speaker 2: pull the name. Yeah, can you save us? I mean 1406 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:51,880 Speaker 2: we're just hanging out here, just. 1407 01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:54,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean she has a Latin name I forgot, and. 1408 01:06:54,440 --> 01:07:00,360 Speaker 2: She's and there's a piece of wood hanging off of 1409 01:07:00,400 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 2: a rock from the cliff, and like we're hanging on 1410 01:07:03,160 --> 01:07:06,160 Speaker 2: that by like a piece of fabric. You know, who 1411 01:07:06,240 --> 01:07:06,400 Speaker 2: is it? 1412 01:07:06,560 --> 01:07:09,040 Speaker 1: Actually? AN interviewed her like a dozen times and now 1413 01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:12,680 Speaker 1: my shitty, shitty memory doesn't even work. 1414 01:07:12,840 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 2: I mean, she's basically a BBL. 1415 01:07:14,600 --> 01:07:17,760 Speaker 1: Look, come on, I'm serious, dude, this is pathetic. I'm 1416 01:07:17,760 --> 01:07:23,640 Speaker 1: trying to find I really Tatiana Suarez. That Tatiana Suarez. 1417 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:26,360 Speaker 2: Finally came back to me. Wow, you know, Luke, is 1418 01:07:26,400 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 2: it possible to just edit out the last like three 1419 01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:30,040 Speaker 2: minutes of talking and well. 1420 01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 1: You know, that's the most authentic portion of this show. 1421 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:35,680 Speaker 1: I recommend keeping it in for transparency. Okay, well, Luke, 1422 01:07:35,680 --> 01:07:37,520 Speaker 1: with you, we got to hold. 1423 01:07:37,320 --> 01:07:40,720 Speaker 2: On, hold on. With the exception of Talia Santo's, is 1424 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:43,280 Speaker 2: there anyone in the top fifteen, whether it's even a 1425 01:07:43,320 --> 01:07:46,200 Speaker 2: couple of years away, that has that same feeling that 1426 01:07:46,240 --> 01:07:48,360 Speaker 2: you're like, Okay, I'd at least like to see her 1427 01:07:48,560 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 2: against Chevchenko? Is it? Uh, Macy Barber? Is it Aaron Blanchefield? 1428 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:56,360 Speaker 2: Is it Manon ferroh? Is it Casey O'Neill, do Alexa Grosso? 1429 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:58,840 Speaker 2: Do any of those? You know where you're like, Okay, 1430 01:07:59,000 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 2: they're still getting finished in the first round tomorrow, but 1431 01:08:02,040 --> 01:08:07,160 Speaker 2: give me a couple of years against chev Chenko. 1432 01:08:09,480 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 1: No, but that doesn't mean anything, you know, we can 1433 01:08:11,840 --> 01:08:14,120 Speaker 1: see how things go. But no, the answer your question. 1434 01:08:14,000 --> 01:08:17,720 Speaker 2: No, okay, this is the best our work here is done. Luke, 1435 01:08:17,760 --> 01:08:18,759 Speaker 2: all right, that's great. 1436 01:08:19,200 --> 01:08:21,960 Speaker 1: Let's talk about this. You spoke to Ryan Garcia fresh 1437 01:08:21,960 --> 01:08:24,240 Speaker 1: off of leaving Eddie Renoso for Folkshomen. I know that 1438 01:08:24,360 --> 01:08:26,800 Speaker 1: is the head trainer of Canelo, the Canelo fight team. 1439 01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:28,960 Speaker 1: He has decided to go a different way, although he 1440 01:08:29,000 --> 01:08:30,920 Speaker 1: has a new fight coming up. You spoke to him, BC, 1441 01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:32,360 Speaker 1: what did you discuss? 1442 01:08:32,600 --> 01:08:35,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, so here's the deal on this. Ryan Garcia is 1443 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:37,000 Speaker 2: going to be back after a fifteen month layoff. It's 1444 01:08:37,000 --> 01:08:39,960 Speaker 2: gonna be April ninth. He's gonna fight Emmanuel to Go 1445 01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:43,040 Speaker 2: from Akregana. Nobody really knows that name. But then you go, oh, 1446 01:08:43,120 --> 01:08:45,439 Speaker 2: he's thirty two and one from Akrogana. He's going to 1447 01:08:45,479 --> 01:08:48,000 Speaker 2: be tough as nails. But Ryan Garcia has had not 1448 01:08:48,040 --> 01:08:50,439 Speaker 2: only risk injuries that has delayed him. But Luke, of course, 1449 01:08:50,439 --> 01:08:52,679 Speaker 2: he pulled out of that Jojo Diaz fight last summer 1450 01:08:53,240 --> 01:08:55,559 Speaker 2: with mental health issues. He's gone on to say he 1451 01:08:55,600 --> 01:08:58,640 Speaker 2: did contemplate suicide. So there's a lot going on in 1452 01:08:58,680 --> 01:09:00,600 Speaker 2: the life of Ryan Garcia. And then you add in 1453 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:03,719 Speaker 2: that last month he left team Canelo, added Joe Goosen 1454 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:06,960 Speaker 2: as a trainer, and in the past few days, Luke, 1455 01:09:07,360 --> 01:09:08,960 Speaker 2: there had been a little bit of back and forth. 1456 01:09:09,000 --> 01:09:12,719 Speaker 2: Canelo did an interview with Ellie Setback and he sort 1457 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:16,240 Speaker 2: of openly questioned again Ryan Garcia's work ethic when sort 1458 01:09:16,280 --> 01:09:18,320 Speaker 2: of pressed on saying, you know, why did it not 1459 01:09:18,400 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 2: go wrong right with Ryan and Eddie Reinoso. You're your 1460 01:09:21,479 --> 01:09:24,639 Speaker 2: trainer and manager and it was a repeat, Luke, don't 1461 01:09:24,680 --> 01:09:29,640 Speaker 2: forget that. Ahead of the Canelo Caleb Plant fight, you know, 1462 01:09:29,720 --> 01:09:32,240 Speaker 2: Canelo straight up said he's wasting his career. I don't 1463 01:09:32,240 --> 01:09:35,240 Speaker 2: think he works hard enough. Blah blah blah. So Ryan 1464 01:09:35,240 --> 01:09:37,479 Speaker 2: didn't like that. Can we throw to the tweets real quick? 1465 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:40,960 Speaker 2: Here Gaff a couple of responses, and I think the 1466 01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 2: key response in this four or five tweet thing here 1467 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 2: explaining Ryan Garcia is essentially explaining that other fighters had 1468 01:09:48,200 --> 01:09:49,760 Speaker 2: issues with Eddie and Gaff. If we can go to 1469 01:09:49,800 --> 01:09:52,240 Speaker 2: the next one, there's sort of a cryptic thing in here. 1470 01:09:53,000 --> 01:09:54,840 Speaker 2: The truth also is that it's not even the main 1471 01:09:54,920 --> 01:09:58,280 Speaker 2: reason I left. Deciders to part ways. Canello knows why. 1472 01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:01,640 Speaker 2: I'm just going to keep it myself and focus on 1473 01:10:01,680 --> 01:10:04,840 Speaker 2: the fight I have. So there's something there, Luke. Something 1474 01:10:04,880 --> 01:10:06,920 Speaker 2: I don't know if it's money, but there's something there. 1475 01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:09,280 Speaker 2: I had Oscar de la Hoya on yesterday. You can 1476 01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:11,479 Speaker 2: watch that interview this week on morning on YouTube dot 1477 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,479 Speaker 2: com Slash Morning Combat. He had this wacky idea that 1478 01:10:14,560 --> 01:10:16,760 Speaker 2: Ryan Garcia is gonna one day fight Canelo at one 1479 01:10:16,800 --> 01:10:19,000 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty five pounds and they're gonna settle the beef. 1480 01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 2: So all this set up, Luke, I talked to Ryan Garcia. 1481 01:10:23,520 --> 01:10:24,320 Speaker 2: Here's the result. 1482 01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:29,160 Speaker 3: I mean, I kind of already addressed it on Twitter, right, 1483 01:10:29,680 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 3: Uh we we kinda just got to speak the facts 1484 01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:38,680 Speaker 3: and get on with it. You know, I'm ready to 1485 01:10:38,880 --> 01:10:43,080 Speaker 3: fight April ninth. You know this whole would pretend to 1486 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:45,320 Speaker 3: be there's no beef here. I have nothing but respect 1487 01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:49,040 Speaker 3: for Canelo. I just I can't let somebody talk about 1488 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:52,000 Speaker 3: my work ethic when it's definitely not true. I'm a 1489 01:10:52,000 --> 01:10:55,519 Speaker 3: hard worker and I've always been that, and uh, I'm 1490 01:10:55,560 --> 01:10:57,640 Speaker 3: just gonna speak facts. I'm not gonna beef with him. 1491 01:10:57,640 --> 01:10:59,439 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say, you know what the doll is and 1492 01:10:59,479 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 3: that's it before. 1493 01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:08,080 Speaker 2: Okay, So then I say, you know, to close here, Luke. 1494 01:11:08,160 --> 01:11:10,880 Speaker 2: Then then what the hell's that real reason you're talking about? 1495 01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:13,240 Speaker 2: And I believe gaff tell me if I'm wrong. We've 1496 01:11:13,280 --> 01:11:16,240 Speaker 2: got one more piece of business to throw it. You 1497 01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:18,800 Speaker 2: teased on social media that there was a reason that 1498 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:21,919 Speaker 2: you haven't shared publicly as to why you switch trainers. 1499 01:11:22,160 --> 01:11:24,559 Speaker 2: You said, Canelo, you know that reason, Ryan, what is 1500 01:11:24,560 --> 01:11:25,040 Speaker 2: that reason? 1501 01:11:26,439 --> 01:11:27,439 Speaker 1: Next question? Please? 1502 01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:32,599 Speaker 2: All right, let's close with this then, RAI. I can't 1503 01:11:32,600 --> 01:11:35,800 Speaker 2: wait for this return. But we got Oscar in here 1504 01:11:35,800 --> 01:11:37,639 Speaker 2: saying he wants you to fight Canelo. At one hundred 1505 01:11:37,640 --> 01:11:40,160 Speaker 2: and sixty five pounds one day set him talking. Are 1506 01:11:40,160 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 2: you talking? Uh? 1507 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:46,559 Speaker 3: April ninth, I'm beating ta Gal's ass. 1508 01:11:46,920 --> 01:11:54,400 Speaker 2: Just know that, Uh look, you know that wasn't the 1509 01:11:54,600 --> 01:11:56,880 Speaker 2: you know, was that the most non lame way you 1510 01:11:56,920 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 2: can manly address the question? No, that was that was 1511 01:11:58,920 --> 01:12:00,519 Speaker 2: pretty lame, Luke. I mean I don't know who that 1512 01:12:00,560 --> 01:12:02,120 Speaker 2: was in the background yelling next question. 1513 01:12:03,400 --> 01:12:05,479 Speaker 1: Whenever they do that, whenever they would do that on radio, 1514 01:12:05,520 --> 01:12:07,120 Speaker 1: I would just hang up on them. I don't play 1515 01:12:07,120 --> 01:12:07,800 Speaker 1: that game, dude. 1516 01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:10,000 Speaker 2: That ain't the ship. We need to hear from Ryan Garcia. 1517 01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:14,400 Speaker 2: Head here, Luke, quickly, quickly here is there anything to 1518 01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:17,960 Speaker 2: this or from oscars comments to Canelo questioning? Is work ethic? 1519 01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:21,080 Speaker 2: What are you? What is your confidence level for Ryan Garcia, 1520 01:12:21,520 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 2: you know, as a put together brand coming back after 1521 01:12:24,000 --> 01:12:25,439 Speaker 2: these crazy fifteen months. 1522 01:12:25,960 --> 01:12:27,680 Speaker 1: We'll have to discuss that at the next time as 1523 01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:31,160 Speaker 1: we move through quick hitters quickly, BC, there we good, 1524 01:12:31,200 --> 01:12:34,000 Speaker 1: good work on that, all right, BC, Dillion White, you're 1525 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:38,360 Speaker 1: really speaking of no showing, wow, speaking of no show. 1526 01:12:38,840 --> 01:12:42,000 Speaker 1: Come on, dude, we're way over time, right way over time. 1527 01:12:42,320 --> 01:12:44,960 Speaker 2: Stay tuned for extra credit with BC after the show. 1528 01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 1: Where we uh, yes, yes, I encourage you. Okay, Dillion 1529 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:50,960 Speaker 1: White no shows at the first press conference BC, as 1530 01:12:51,000 --> 01:12:53,280 Speaker 1: I understand it, as you make jack off motions and 1531 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:55,519 Speaker 1: get all bitter at me even though we agree to 1532 01:12:55,520 --> 01:12:56,320 Speaker 1: move through this quickly. 1533 01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:59,479 Speaker 2: BC. That's what I said, said Luke, Can I get 1534 01:12:59,560 --> 01:13:03,040 Speaker 2: quickly we get your take on you know, on important. 1535 01:13:02,600 --> 01:13:05,240 Speaker 1: On Garcia, the whole thing. I would say this, he's 1536 01:13:05,280 --> 01:13:08,639 Speaker 1: taking an opponent. He's taking an opponent that is quite manageable, 1537 01:13:08,680 --> 01:13:10,559 Speaker 1: which is probably the right thing to do coming back. 1538 01:13:10,960 --> 01:13:13,160 Speaker 1: But I think your general tenor of being a little 1539 01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:16,679 Speaker 1: bit uneasy about all of this, I think is quite right. 1540 01:13:16,720 --> 01:13:18,519 Speaker 1: It's the same one I get. You're like, well, he 1541 01:13:18,560 --> 01:13:22,720 Speaker 1: could go right back to where he was, but I 1542 01:13:22,720 --> 01:13:24,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. I need to see how he looks. 1543 01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:27,040 Speaker 1: But this, this one fight just won't tell us anything 1544 01:13:27,120 --> 01:13:30,040 Speaker 1: other than if he's really bad. Does that make sense? Like, 1545 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:32,960 Speaker 1: if he's okay, he'll win this. If he's really bad 1546 01:13:33,040 --> 01:13:35,080 Speaker 1: then he won't. But even if he wins, it doesn't 1547 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:37,760 Speaker 1: give us enough information to make a broader. 1548 01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:40,240 Speaker 2: Then and then I'll move. Then I'll move up thirty 1549 01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:43,080 Speaker 2: pounds and fight Canal to settle oscars beef right. 1550 01:13:43,200 --> 01:13:46,240 Speaker 1: You know that's that that part is silly. That part 1551 01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:49,439 Speaker 1: is silly. All right, we in all seriousness. Dillian WHITEBC 1552 01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:52,360 Speaker 1: no shows his first fight with Tyson Fury at the 1553 01:13:52,360 --> 01:13:55,360 Speaker 1: press conference. Is it my understanding BC that he felt 1554 01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:58,160 Speaker 1: like he wasn't getting cut in on extra money from 1555 01:13:58,200 --> 01:14:00,559 Speaker 1: the pay per view and so because that he doesn't 1556 01:14:00,560 --> 01:14:02,640 Speaker 1: feel like he has to do paid promotion. Is that 1557 01:14:02,680 --> 01:14:03,360 Speaker 1: accurate he's doing. 1558 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:06,479 Speaker 2: There's been a split reaction here well, and I want 1559 01:14:06,479 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 2: to say split. Most of it is people saying, come on, 1560 01:14:08,840 --> 01:14:10,880 Speaker 2: Dillian White, like what the f this is your job 1561 01:14:10,920 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 2: and you aren't you getting paid a career high eight 1562 01:14:13,520 --> 01:14:17,519 Speaker 2: million in this fight? After that? You know, wild perspid. Yeah, 1563 01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:20,439 Speaker 2: all that this is true? So is this unprofessional? Luke? 1564 01:14:20,479 --> 01:14:23,680 Speaker 2: Of course? But he did pull a Lithuanian exit, like 1565 01:14:23,720 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 2: we like to say Luke jokingly of at least telling 1566 01:14:26,520 --> 01:14:29,000 Speaker 2: ahead of time, yeah, I'm not coming. I'm not gonna 1567 01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:32,160 Speaker 2: help promote this because you know, you guys aren't cutting 1568 01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:33,760 Speaker 2: me into the pay per view. He's not getting any 1569 01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:37,240 Speaker 2: extras beyond his base salary. So look, Top brings the 1570 01:14:37,360 --> 01:14:41,400 Speaker 2: lead promoter here because Frank Warren put that you know 1571 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:44,040 Speaker 2: that ridiculously large bid. So they have the the A 1572 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:46,280 Speaker 2: side and they also have the champion by the way, 1573 01:14:46,360 --> 01:14:48,439 Speaker 2: So Luke, it kind of is what it is, but 1574 01:14:48,479 --> 01:14:50,880 Speaker 2: there is precedence here. Dillion White in the past did 1575 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:52,640 Speaker 2: the same thing to Eddie Herney, walked out of a 1576 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:55,120 Speaker 2: press conference and basically said, you're not paying me enough 1577 01:14:55,120 --> 01:14:57,439 Speaker 2: for me to promote this fight for you. So I 1578 01:14:57,479 --> 01:15:01,479 Speaker 2: think it's part of what makes him dangerous. Dillion White 1579 01:15:01,520 --> 01:15:04,599 Speaker 2: to play the villain role and credit to Tyson Fury 1580 01:15:04,600 --> 01:15:06,559 Speaker 2: for having the personality had pull it off without him. 1581 01:15:06,880 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 2: But Luke, whether you think Fury's gonna mop him up 1582 01:15:09,280 --> 01:15:11,760 Speaker 2: or not, we gotta fight April twenty third, Like there's 1583 01:15:11,800 --> 01:15:13,640 Speaker 2: a fight, dude. I'm fired up for this. 1584 01:15:14,360 --> 01:15:16,000 Speaker 1: I'm fired up for this too. I just feel like 1585 01:15:16,200 --> 01:15:18,759 Speaker 1: doing this kind of thing is gonna have Tyson Fury 1586 01:15:18,840 --> 01:15:21,719 Speaker 1: eat you alive even before the fight starts. He's gonna 1587 01:15:21,760 --> 01:15:25,439 Speaker 1: feed off of this and maybe it is weakness, maybe 1588 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:28,120 Speaker 1: it's not, but he's gonna turn it into weakness and 1589 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:31,240 Speaker 1: then bang Dillion White over the head with it until 1590 01:15:31,240 --> 01:15:32,920 Speaker 1: April twenty third, in which case he's just gonna bang 1591 01:15:32,960 --> 01:15:34,320 Speaker 1: him in the face. Well that sounds kind of weird, 1592 01:15:34,320 --> 01:15:35,080 Speaker 1: but you know what I'm saying. 1593 01:15:36,120 --> 01:15:38,200 Speaker 2: But yes, it looks like it kind of sounds like 1594 01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:41,240 Speaker 2: my search history actually to be fair. 1595 01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:44,200 Speaker 1: Haang in face there you go. Uh BC, you saw 1596 01:15:44,240 --> 01:15:46,160 Speaker 1: this one? I had saw after you sent it. I 1597 01:15:46,240 --> 01:15:49,080 Speaker 1: had seen it. Kayla Harrison boy, she had no time 1598 01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:52,080 Speaker 1: for Chris Cyborg on Twitter yesterday. Let's see the tweet 1599 01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:52,519 Speaker 1: up there. 1600 01:15:53,080 --> 01:15:54,000 Speaker 2: Yeah there was a tweet. 1601 01:15:54,040 --> 01:15:56,799 Speaker 1: I think yeah, I think the tweet was originally from 1602 01:15:56,920 --> 01:16:00,200 Speaker 1: Ariel saying that I guess Bellator had matched PFL. Well 1603 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:03,519 Speaker 1: she okay, the state the state. 1604 01:16:03,400 --> 01:16:05,640 Speaker 2: So like you just said something I don't think was 1605 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:08,800 Speaker 2: reported that Belatormma came to the table apparently in a 1606 01:16:08,840 --> 01:16:11,920 Speaker 2: big way with an offer. Ariel reported that and said 1607 01:16:12,120 --> 01:16:14,439 Speaker 2: that not only did PFL match it, but that it 1608 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:18,400 Speaker 2: appears that Kayla is headed toward resigning with them. But 1609 01:16:18,520 --> 01:16:20,839 Speaker 2: Luke Kayla would go on right after that to tweet 1610 01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:24,320 Speaker 2: out how frustrated she was of the whole situation, and 1611 01:16:24,400 --> 01:16:27,800 Speaker 2: then came this tweet at Cyborg where she's basically like 1612 01:16:27,840 --> 01:16:31,040 Speaker 2: meet me andtomecula. She's like, here's the jim address for 1613 01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:35,600 Speaker 2: att like come down and fight me. Now, look what 1614 01:16:35,760 --> 01:16:41,120 Speaker 2: does that tell you in relation to how this deal 1615 01:16:41,200 --> 01:16:43,600 Speaker 2: situation may have fallen. Apart to her liking. 1616 01:16:43,320 --> 01:16:48,000 Speaker 1: It seems, I think she wanted to go elsewhere, and 1617 01:16:48,120 --> 01:16:52,160 Speaker 1: I think she's frustrated that she is not going to 1618 01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:54,960 Speaker 1: end up elsewhere, whether it was UFC or in this case, 1619 01:16:55,000 --> 01:16:57,439 Speaker 1: now Belatore made an offer, and so the way it 1620 01:16:57,439 --> 01:16:59,400 Speaker 1: works is if Bellator makes an offer. We've seen this 1621 01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:03,680 Speaker 1: previously with Alvarez and Gilbert Melendez and all that. When 1622 01:17:03,880 --> 01:17:06,080 Speaker 1: Gilbert Melendez was given an offer by Belltour. What ended 1623 01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,320 Speaker 1: up happening was actually good for the fighters in the 1624 01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:10,599 Speaker 1: sense that you get the most contractually, but there are 1625 01:17:10,640 --> 01:17:13,080 Speaker 1: going to be stipulations in fighters contracts that say, Okay, 1626 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:15,559 Speaker 1: that other person, that other entity can make an offer, 1627 01:17:15,840 --> 01:17:17,400 Speaker 1: but we have a certain amount of window which if 1628 01:17:17,439 --> 01:17:20,280 Speaker 1: we match that offer, we get to retain your services. 1629 01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:24,479 Speaker 1: Apparently to the letter, PFL matched the offer, so Beltore 1630 01:17:24,520 --> 01:17:26,840 Speaker 1: can't do anything about that unless they, I guess, offer 1631 01:17:26,920 --> 01:17:29,080 Speaker 1: a new offer, which I don't know if they will. 1632 01:17:29,439 --> 01:17:31,160 Speaker 1: So it looks like she's headed back to PFL. I 1633 01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:34,519 Speaker 1: think there's frustration. I think there's frustration about that she's 1634 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:37,559 Speaker 1: making good money and she is certainly getting you know, 1635 01:17:38,080 --> 01:17:40,400 Speaker 1: dominant victories, but I think she was looking for a 1636 01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:42,960 Speaker 1: new gear. And I don't know if this new PFL contract, 1637 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,840 Speaker 1: well it might be financially lucrative, is going to provide that. 1638 01:17:46,200 --> 01:17:51,400 Speaker 2: Luke does the ESPN situation with UFC being the MMA 1639 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:54,320 Speaker 2: face of the channel by far, and although PFL is 1640 01:17:54,320 --> 01:17:56,680 Speaker 2: a very good TV deal, it seems and they do 1641 01:17:56,760 --> 01:17:59,559 Speaker 2: get you know, prime placement on what ESPN two and 1642 01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:02,360 Speaker 2: you know the and all that they're still the junior player. 1643 01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:04,599 Speaker 2: How much does that factor into the idea, Because if 1644 01:18:04,640 --> 01:18:07,519 Speaker 2: you're frustrated to just go, okay, well how about we 1645 01:18:07,560 --> 01:18:10,040 Speaker 2: do this. How about it's not about titles. How about 1646 01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:13,040 Speaker 2: bellatorp PFL get together, they sign a two fight pay 1647 01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:16,200 Speaker 2: per view series and either let each other promote Eat 1648 01:18:16,240 --> 01:18:18,439 Speaker 2: one in one or we come together for a dual 1649 01:18:18,479 --> 01:18:22,679 Speaker 2: pay per view. Is that impossible because of the UFCESPN situation. 1650 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:25,519 Speaker 1: It's not impossible. But what I would say is this 1651 01:18:25,560 --> 01:18:27,840 Speaker 1: is the problem with Kayla. Kayla's trying to get to 1652 01:18:27,960 --> 01:18:31,160 Speaker 1: a scenario where she has enough fame and leverage to 1653 01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:35,240 Speaker 1: force if not that situation, just force the promoters to 1654 01:18:35,280 --> 01:18:37,760 Speaker 1: bend to her will a little bit more. But she 1655 01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:41,080 Speaker 1: needs to get bigger name opponents and more clout, so 1656 01:18:41,160 --> 01:18:43,840 Speaker 1: to speak. I'm not using that word in the pejorative sense, 1657 01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:47,840 Speaker 1: but I just mean the amount of sway that she 1658 01:18:47,960 --> 01:18:50,759 Speaker 1: has over these matters. She needs bigger fights and bigger 1659 01:18:50,880 --> 01:18:53,400 Speaker 1: leverage to do that. But she can't do that because 1660 01:18:53,400 --> 01:18:56,960 Speaker 1: she's still stuck in this situation. So I take your point, 1661 01:18:57,000 --> 01:19:00,800 Speaker 1: But she's not Connor could do something like that, or 1662 01:19:00,840 --> 01:19:02,880 Speaker 1: even someone even Nate could do something like that if 1663 01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:05,679 Speaker 1: he was playing in the in this space. Not not 1664 01:19:05,680 --> 01:19:07,760 Speaker 1: not not not not her unfortunately not yet. 1665 01:19:07,800 --> 01:19:12,519 Speaker 2: Anyway, BC, this is okay for rolling. There are enough 1666 01:19:12,560 --> 01:19:15,680 Speaker 2: fighters in Belatour beyond Cyborg that could make that that 1667 01:19:15,760 --> 01:19:21,000 Speaker 2: deal actually work for Kayla to fight for pay per view, No, 1668 01:19:21,240 --> 01:19:24,120 Speaker 2: for Kayla to join Belatour on a massive. 1669 01:19:25,160 --> 01:19:30,280 Speaker 1: If they had Cyborg and another name. Maybe not not 1670 01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:31,479 Speaker 1: right as it stands. 1671 01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:34,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, they don't even have probably everything else. Yeah, I 1672 01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:36,200 Speaker 2: don't even have Julia but anymore. 1673 01:19:35,920 --> 01:19:39,360 Speaker 1: So Yeah, exactly exactly all right, BC, you'll love this one. 1674 01:19:39,400 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 1: The King of Connecticut, I know you love this guy. 1675 01:19:41,280 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 1: Glover to Shia. He is still gonna fight Yuri Prolhatchka. 1676 01:19:44,400 --> 01:19:46,240 Speaker 1: This is a small note, but they're gonna move it 1677 01:19:46,240 --> 01:19:48,840 Speaker 1: to UFC two seventy five. Let me get the date 1678 01:19:48,920 --> 01:19:51,639 Speaker 1: on this before I may any reaction to this. It's 1679 01:19:51,680 --> 01:19:53,360 Speaker 1: not the biggest news in the world of No. 1680 01:19:53,840 --> 01:19:56,439 Speaker 2: I freaking love the fight. Yeah, that's cool, let's do it, Loug. 1681 01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:01,120 Speaker 1: That will be June eleventh at a T TBD location. 1682 01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:04,080 Speaker 1: We don't have that yet. Also on that card, BC 1683 01:20:04,160 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 1: is supposed to be the Valentina Shipchenko Tyler Santos, but 1684 01:20:06,479 --> 01:20:08,680 Speaker 1: they will have to see and then there you go. 1685 01:20:08,800 --> 01:20:11,040 Speaker 1: June eleventh is the one that's supposed to be and last, 1686 01:20:11,040 --> 01:20:14,960 Speaker 1: but not least PC. This is for you, Amanda Hebas 1687 01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 1: versus Michelle Waterson, which I think was originally scheduled for 1688 01:20:18,280 --> 01:20:23,200 Speaker 1: some time ago, has been rescheduled for UFC two seventy four. BC. 1689 01:20:23,400 --> 01:20:25,160 Speaker 1: Why do you love this fight so much? Because I 1690 01:20:25,200 --> 01:20:25,559 Speaker 1: know you do. 1691 01:20:27,280 --> 01:20:29,760 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, are we doing a We're doing 1692 01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 2: a Patreon show to talk about this fight, Luke?
