21
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 2: in our show open, so maybe we should do something

22
00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 2: about that. Looks like that's a nice car. Are those

23
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:25,560

26
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:32,400
Speaker 2: So well, it's great to have you, and thank you

27
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,040
Speaker 2: for being here early, and we're only going to keep

28
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:35,800
Speaker 2: you for a quarter of an hour out of respect

29
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,839
Speaker 2: for your time. But one thing you were saying off

30
00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:41,240
Speaker 2: the air was about Game four of the NBA Finals,

31
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,240
Speaker 2: which as a Boston Celtics fan I witnessed in person.

32
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 2: And yeah, man, I'm still crying in my cheerios. I

33
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: don't know what to tell you. Is that one of

34
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 2: those games that you like leave early or is it

35
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,480
Speaker 2: like you sit the whole way? Could just sit course

36
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 2: that So I didn't know how much of this I

37
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 2: was gonna reveal on the Anak and Flooring podcast, But

38
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,680
Speaker 2: here it is. And by the way, Jason Annik walking

39
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 2: in sto he is five minutes late. I don't care

40
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 2: that you had a call with Odd Shark. You know,

41
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 2: blow's early, you're late, But here it is blal and

42
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 2: Kenny doesn't even know this. Okay, Dana White probably spent

43
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 2: eighty thousand dollars for four of us to go sit

44
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 2: court side. That's what happened, right, It is the most incredible,

45
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,240
Speaker 2: generous gift that I have ever received. I couldn't sleep

46
00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,440
Speaker 2: for seventy two hours because I was so excited to

47
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:29,880
Speaker 2: go sit courtside and watch the Boston Celtics potentially win

48
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:32,680
Speaker 2: an NBA championship. But when this started to materialize, it

49
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 2: wasn't even game one, so then all of a sudden,

50
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 2: the Larry O'Brien Trophy is in the building, Balal, and

51
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: then by the nine oh one minute mark of the

52
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:45,799
Speaker 2: second quarter, they were down fourteen and never got closer. Damn, dude,

53
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:46,239
Speaker 2: that's sick.

54
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 5: Though, No, it's not though.

55
00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 2: I mean, you know you were there a part of

56
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,320
Speaker 2: the series. I mean yes, right, I mean, well, yes,

57
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 2: if they win one of the next three games, Belal

58
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 2: and Kenny, I think it's okay. But I just have

59
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 2: to tell you guys, I don't even know. I mean,

60
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 2: it just feels like a body blow, and we didn't

61
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,160
Speaker 2: even get a chance to really cheer. So I think retroactively,

62
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 2: retrospectively historically, looking back on it, I think I'll be

63
00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: okay if they win the championship, But below, I don't know, man,

64
00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:19,359
Speaker 2: that was we stayed the whole time out of respect

65
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,720
Speaker 2: to the gesture and the tickets I was sitting.

66
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 4: I was like, man, bro forty, at least get a

67
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,799
Speaker 4: striking distance. But like you said, I'm like now wondering

68
00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:30,799
Speaker 4: if Dallas could pull it off because I'm like, a

69
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 4: forty point blow that's hardh centering. So I don't know

70
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 4: if it's gonna give them momentum, give them a new confidence.

71
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 4: Don just was able to rest the whole fourth quarter.

72
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 4: So like today's gonna be a Today's gonna be interesting.

73
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 2: Well, I think I'm gonna bet all of my show

74
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 2: money on the Mavericks tonight to try to purchase a

75
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 2: Boston Celtics win. But this is not an NBA show,

76
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: and it's great to have you with us. We sit

77
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,840
Speaker 2: here June seventeenth, you're about forty days out. I mean

78
00:03:54,880 --> 00:03:58,040
Speaker 2: your podcast, remember the show with this guy. I mean

79
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 2: you got to put that on, put that on hiatus

80
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: for a little bit, or what do we do? Jason

81
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 2: Addick now joining us a little bit tardy today. Well,

82
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 2: I love my boy Balao, but you're talking NBA and

83
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:13,160
Speaker 2: you know how hard he's rooting for Dallas. John. I

84
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 2: just want you to know that our show lights go

85
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,200
Speaker 2: off on our show. Remember the show last Thursday night?

86
00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:20,880
Speaker 2: And it's the Kyrie Irving Show, isn't it? Bully just

87
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 2: hey talking about Jacton Patum. I don't like.

88
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:23,359
Speaker 3: I don't know.

89
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,279
Speaker 2: Carr's my boy. I know it's about It's not a

90
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,160
Speaker 2: basketball show, but I just had to get in there.

91
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,160
Speaker 2: But good to see you, Bully be six weeks looking

92
00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: lean as usual. My brother, I do it this Homer

93
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 2: needs to grow out his hair because he's going to

94
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 2: be walking all over man Rochester, staying and new, and

95
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 2: he's gonna put me in trouble. I'm serious. Let's throw

96
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:49,680
Speaker 2: it all right, go ahead, Blah Muhammad with us live

97
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:52,280
Speaker 2: on the Anakin Flooring Podcast. And you know a lot

98
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 2: of us we're expecting that if you beat Gilbert Burns,

99
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,000
Speaker 2: it might be an extended wait. But I guess I

100
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:00,919
Speaker 2: would like to at least start with what your emotions

101
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: were like when Louis Taylor finally said to you, hey,

102
00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:06,839
Speaker 2: Data White just announced this thing on Instagram. I guess

103
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: you knew you were all but guaranteed, But what were

104
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 2: your emotions like when this was finally made official?

105
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:13,520
Speaker 5: Yeah?

106
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:13,880
Speaker 2: Man, it was.

107
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 4: It was one of those things like a huge weight

108
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 4: lifted off your shoulders because even though like they almost

109
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:19,799
Speaker 4: like a couple of weeks before that, Yeah, it's basically

110
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,479
Speaker 4: a done deal. And it's like until he announces it

111
00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 4: on Instagram, until it's like the public knows about it,

112
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 4: it's not real because something always could have happened, something

113
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 4: always could change, And with the way my career is going,

114
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,080
Speaker 4: I was like, man, I'm gonna get screwed somehow, some way,

115
00:05:33,760 --> 00:05:35,040
Speaker 4: but yeah, I'm training.

116
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: Then all of a sudden he brings it up and.

117
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,000
Speaker 4: I was like, no way, And then he didn't hit

118
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:41,120
Speaker 4: me that it was the main evat, so it was like, yeah,

119
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:42,480
Speaker 4: I tell everything. Like, bro, if I was in a

120
00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:44,040
Speaker 4: room full of the Degas Dandy's, I would have like

121
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 4: started crying. But like it's a couple of days to

122
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 4: like let it settle in where it's like it's finally here,

123
00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 4: and you know, I've been talking about it and I've

124
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 4: been saying it. Me and Ian Lariol would sit there

125
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,440
Speaker 4: and talking the phone and like, yeah, you know, we

126
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 4: at three hundred, let's do it in Manchester and like

127
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,720
Speaker 4: you're just speaking into existence and now it's really here,

128
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,159
Speaker 4: it's really happening, and yes, it's gonna be a great

129
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 4: feeling and ball.

130
00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 6: You know, what's the biggest mind change, you know heading

131
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,359
Speaker 6: into this fight knowing that you've already fought him, Like,

132
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,240
Speaker 6: I guess I'm curious as to what the biggest takeaway

133
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:21,479
Speaker 6: was for you after that first meeting and how that

134
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,360
Speaker 6: has changed your mindset and perhaps your training for this one.

135
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,280
Speaker 4: I mean, if I'm being honest, there's really nothing I

136
00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 4: could really take from that first meeting because it was

137
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 4: a short notice fight. It was it was my first

138
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:36,880
Speaker 4: main event. It was a crazy set of circumstances. It

139
00:06:36,920 --> 00:06:40,159
Speaker 4: was literally COVID, it was all of that, right, So, like, honestly,

140
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,159
Speaker 4: for this fight, I really want to just even go

141
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 4: in there. I want to lose the first round on purpose,

142
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 4: just so I could proof to everybody, showed everybody what

143
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 4: would have happened in those other four rounds, just so

144
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 4: I could show Leon like, oh, you won one round,

145
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:54,039
Speaker 4: let me watch what happens other four rounds, just because

146
00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 4: all the doubters, all the haters, all the people that

147
00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 4: came from that one fight, and it was kind of

148
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 4: like how it's stuff really flipped after that fight, Like

149
00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 4: how with the al job, you know, the people started

150
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:06,960
Speaker 4: booing them after the Period fight. For me, it's just

151
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 4: like after that fight, I just started getting booted. I

152
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 4: was like, why because I got poked in the eye.

153
00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 4: But I'm like, I'm gonna I'm gonna reset everything after

154
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,320
Speaker 4: this fight right here, once I'm the champion. All these dollars,

155
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 4: all these haters, none of that ever matters to me,

156
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 4: the ones that been close to me from the beginning.

157
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:21,560
Speaker 2: I'm doing it for all of us.

158
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 6: A lot has changed since you guys last thought, who

159
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:27,440
Speaker 6: do you think has made the biggest improvements.

160
00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 4: I think I for sure have, just because if you

161
00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 4: look at the matchups I've had to fight, right, I've

162
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 4: had to fight a bunch of different styles. I thought

163
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 4: a better striker than him, and Wonder Boy a better

164
00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 4: grappler than him, and Maya Ann Burns, and then I

165
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,520
Speaker 4: had to be the guy that knocked me out and

166
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,440
Speaker 4: Luk so like, I had to make a bunch of

167
00:07:46,480 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 4: switches in camps, and that's where you learned the most

168
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:50,160
Speaker 4: in your camps and through these fights.

169
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 2: He's really fought.

170
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 4: He thought Nadas after me, he thought Ushman the first

171
00:07:54,560 --> 00:07:57,000
Speaker 4: time where he was getting killed, and then the Kobe fight.

172
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:59,400
Speaker 4: You really can't take nothing from it. Kobe, like he

173
00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 4: sucked atle fight, so like, I don't really think that

174
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: anything changed for him except for probably mentality. Right now,

175
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 4: he thinks he's a champion and he thinks he's doing

176
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 4: all the right things.

177
00:08:15,720 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 2: Blah Muhammad with us here on the Anican Florian podcast

178
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 2: faces Leon Edwards live on pay per view in the

179
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,560
Speaker 2: middle of the fucking night on July twenty seventh. What

180
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,880
Speaker 2: are we gonna do about that variable? Bully?

181
00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:30,120
Speaker 4: Honestly, I'm good with it, because, yeah, I was telling Jayson, well.

182
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 2: You're good with everything. It seems right calf kicks fighting

183
00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: in Ramadan, Like with respect to your now teammate Islam

184
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: Kashev right, he doesn't seem to want to compete during Ramadan.

185
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 2: You're seemingly good with everything. But what have you and

186
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,520
Speaker 2: Mike Valley done or talked about when it comes to

187
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,679
Speaker 2: that particular Barry, We're.

188
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,080
Speaker 4: Gonna go later, We're gonna go We're just gonna make

189
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,800
Speaker 4: it the like a regular fight week, I think, because at.

190
00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:51,199
Speaker 2: First we were like, should we get out there early?

191
00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 4: Do we need to acclimate to the time zone, But

192
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:57,199
Speaker 4: since we're fighting on American time, there's really no need

193
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:00,720
Speaker 4: to get out there early. It's just getting out making

194
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,960
Speaker 4: sure that we have a blackout curtains, make sure there's

195
00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 4: whoever's in the house with us is not making any noise.

196
00:09:07,920 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 4: Like everybody's gonna be on the same page. And I

197
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 4: think that will just if we have to.

198
00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:14,720
Speaker 2: You could get this slap dick right here to get

199
00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 2: your white noise machine that plugs into that UK outlet. Right, Jay,

200
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:21,400
Speaker 2: you got nothing to do. You got to be there, right, yeah? Absolutely, yeah,

201
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 2: he send this guy out, get a fucking white noise

202
00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,319
Speaker 2: machine out of the pharmacy. But I promise myself, I

203
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 2: will will watch my language when Bala Muhammad was here.

204
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: And the improvements of these fighters, though right, certainly Leon

205
00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,480
Speaker 2: has been in these championship fights, and much has been

206
00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:37,920
Speaker 2: made of his improvements. You have guys like Teddy Atlas

207
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: and other pundits who suggests that you get twenty to

208
00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: thirty percent better when you win the championship, uh, with

209
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 2: complete veracity, when you and Mike Valley and Louis Taylor

210
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,600
Speaker 2: and whomever else is in your inner circle. This fucking guy, maybe,

211
00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,760
Speaker 2: what does the film tell you about Leon's improvement? Because

212
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:55,760
Speaker 2: he looks to a lot of us like the best

213
00:09:55,760 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 2: welterweight in the world and maybe the most challenging matchup

214
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 2: for you right now at President, I.

215
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:03,800
Speaker 4: Think I think the exact opposite. I don't think he

216
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 4: is the toughest match up for me. When I look

217
00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 4: at it stylistically, I think I'm a his kryptonite. I

218
00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 4: think that the last couple of fights he's had, he's

219
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 4: been able to dictate the pace and dictate the distance.

220
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 2: Right.

221
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,000
Speaker 4: But the Ousman third fight, Ushman wasn't the same Usman.

222
00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:24,120
Speaker 4: Usman was in there hesitant, he wasn't throwing, and I

223
00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,160
Speaker 4: thought that Ousman looked worse.

224
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 2: Than Leon looked better.

225
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,840
Speaker 4: And then in the Kobe fight, Bro, they threw sixty

226
00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:34,959
Speaker 4: strikes in a five round fight. Yeah, and he's still

227
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,960
Speaker 4: gassed out in the third round, I mean in the

228
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 4: fifth round, like how But so like when all these

229
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:41,800
Speaker 4: people come up with this, oh man, he looks better

230
00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 4: at this fight he dominated the two best wealth rates.

231
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 2: In the world, I don't really think he did.

232
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I'm gonna show it, And honestly, when I

233
00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 4: do it, I'm gonna make it look easy. And I

234
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:50,800
Speaker 4: think it's gonna be another one of those things where

235
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 4: people are like, man, maybe he had food poisoning or something.

236
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:57,920
Speaker 2: Maybe he's sick. Hats be something that went wrong. Yeah,

237
00:10:58,000 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 2: So in terms of your own development, I think we

238
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 2: could all point to really anything right, your power, your striking,

239
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,840
Speaker 2: your offensive wrestling, your clinch game, your takedown defense, your cardio,

240
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 2: your physical strength. I think in terms of the strength

241
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 2: and conditioning, what would you say developmentally is the biggest

242
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,640
Speaker 2: difference in Blah Muhammad fighting in that twenty five foot

243
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:22,240
Speaker 2: octagon at the Apex twenty twenty one short notice against

244
00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:25,599
Speaker 2: Leon Versus in theory this monster that is now the

245
00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 2: number one content.

246
00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 4: If I would be honest, I would say, like mentality right,

247
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 4: because even at that point, like I haven't At that point,

248
00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,079
Speaker 4: I was like calling for a ranked fighter. They never

249
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 4: gave me a ranked fighter, and like I was was

250
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:40,800
Speaker 4: just coming off of BD Belima, and I was like, man.

251
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: You get a ranked fight, what's gonna happen?

252
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:45,280
Speaker 4: And before you even fight a ranked guy, you can

253
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:47,080
Speaker 4: always tell yourself you're gonna be a tappy and this

254
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 4: this to this. But like I didn't get to that

255
00:11:49,120 --> 00:11:51,640
Speaker 4: level until like I beat a WonderBoy, somebody that I

256
00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 4: saw a fight for the title twice and somebody that like,

257
00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:55,960
Speaker 4: you got to get over that.

258
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 2: Fan aspect of it. And after I beat him, then

259
00:11:58,880 --> 00:11:59,480
Speaker 2: I'd beat Luke.

260
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,000
Speaker 4: Those like two big mental hurdles that I had to

261
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 4: go over, Whereas like now we belong, We belong here

262
00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:06,200
Speaker 4: with the top guys. We don't need to go to

263
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,760
Speaker 4: a huge gym, and you know, put all this type

264
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,440
Speaker 4: of stuff into our camps and stuff like that. It's

265
00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,920
Speaker 4: like I'm at the right place. I got the right coaches,

266
00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 4: the right team around me, and it was just that

267
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 4: type of thing just mentally put a confidence in me

268
00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,200
Speaker 4: that I could be the best in the world.

269
00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:23,400
Speaker 2: You know, you cut him off earlier a little bit.

270
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:24,960
Speaker 2: He was gonna give you a little bit of a

271
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,960
Speaker 2: different answer. I think you know, when we've talked about

272
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 2: the time of the fight, bully, I think you know

273
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 2: where we're going with this, right we wake up in

274
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,199
Speaker 2: the middle of the night, go ahead, Yeah, no.

275
00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:36,480
Speaker 4: Exactly like I was telling you earlier, where it's like,

276
00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,120
Speaker 4: I'll fight Leon any day of the week. I'm not

277
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 4: gonna sit there at nine pm and be like, oh wait, no,

278
00:12:41,880 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 4: hold up to see four hours. I didn't give my

279
00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:48,120
Speaker 4: exact hours sleep. Wait, let's do it at three am

280
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 4: two am. Like, Bro, you call me to fight LeAnn Edwards,

281
00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:52,199
Speaker 4: I'm gonna wake up. I'ma be ready to fight. I

282
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 4: don't even need to eat breakfast.

283
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:56,839
Speaker 2: Well, then let me ask you this, as far as

284
00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,680
Speaker 2: UFC three hundred was concerned and having the bulk of

285
00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,240
Speaker 2: training in camp during Ramadan, is it not better to

286
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,080
Speaker 2: be on this calendar?

287
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:07,959
Speaker 5: Okay?

288
00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,559
Speaker 4: And that's why I tell people too, is like when

289
00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:12,640
Speaker 4: I when I talk about stuff like God's plan and

290
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:15,680
Speaker 4: things like that, it's like it happened for a reason,

291
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,240
Speaker 4: and people will will say, oh, man, they offer this guy,

292
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 4: that guy, this guy, blah blah blah.

293
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 2: What do you think about that?

294
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,319
Speaker 4: It doesn't matter anymore because now I'm fighting him, and

295
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:25,520
Speaker 4: I'm fighting him in Manchester, and that that story that's

296
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:27,719
Speaker 4: happed there, the way he's gonna end is going to

297
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,199
Speaker 4: be an amazing thing because that's what you dream about, right.

298
00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,079
Speaker 4: You want to go to Animy territory and you want

299
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:34,960
Speaker 4: to take his belt from his people in front of

300
00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,559
Speaker 4: his crowd where everybody's thinking that you're gonna go out

301
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 4: there and lose like I've been. I've been doubted my

302
00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,320
Speaker 4: last five fights, and I keep getting doubted.

303
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:46,440
Speaker 2: So that doubt does nothing but fuel me. So there's

304
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 2: a lot of things i'd imagine that you would say

305
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 2: when you get on a microphone, right in terms of

306
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 2: what is going on in the world and your fellow

307
00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:58,479
Speaker 2: Palestinians and Palestinian Americans, but in terms of Chicago, Illinois,

308
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 2: and I don't know the last time the US was

309
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,559
Speaker 2: there as the champion, right, you're not gonna I mean,

310
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,880
Speaker 2: certainly you could call out a top welterweight contender that

311
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,320
Speaker 2: you want to fight. I know you want to fight

312
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 2: all these guys, Jack Dela, Mattelaine, shop Cut, Rock Moanov

313
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,360
Speaker 2: and everybody else, Right, But can't you get on the

314
00:14:14,400 --> 00:14:17,360
Speaker 2: mic at some point and just be like Chicago, Like,

315
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: I mean, what's it going to take to get the

316
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:21,400
Speaker 2: UFC back to one of America's finest cities, Like what's

317
00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:23,480
Speaker 2: going on? Well? I was.

318
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,920
Speaker 4: Anytime I get, like to the gym or something like that,

319
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 4: people always ask me, when are they coming back to Chicago?

320
00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: When did they coming back Chicago? And I think it's

321
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:30,200
Speaker 2: another one of those things.

322
00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:32,240
Speaker 4: Right, once I had the belt, yeah, when it's about

323
00:14:32,280 --> 00:14:33,960
Speaker 4: to happen, Yeah, that's when I can bring it back

324
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 4: to Chicago.

325
00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 2: Because Bro, We're an amazing sports town.

326
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 4: We haven't had a champion in a while, right Our

327
00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 4: teams that aren't good right now. So right now Chicago's

328
00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 4: Chicago's only hope. You are on's we get that belt.

329
00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 4: The United State is gonna be popping.

330
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:51,080
Speaker 2: No, I really think you are the hope to get

331
00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,720
Speaker 2: the UFC back to Chicago where we used to go

332
00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:57,400
Speaker 2: every January for some reason. All right, Chicago bears over

333
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 2: under eight and a half wins right now on DraftKings sportsbook,

334
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 2: over has juiced minus one sixty five, so under eight

335
00:15:04,760 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 2: and a half wins pays out at plus one forty.

336
00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 2: What do we think for Caleb Williams and company? You're

337
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:12,440
Speaker 2: going over under eight and a half, Bellie, I'm.

338
00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:15,680
Speaker 4: Going over me. Caleb Kal's got the height. I think

339
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,240
Speaker 4: he's gonna go out there. He's gonna pull it off.

340
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,600
Speaker 4: Our schedule is not looking bad. And then you know

341
00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 4: we got Mercedes.

342
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 2: Lewis back too, exactly season nineteen. Big dog, let's go

343
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:26,120
Speaker 2: all right, I'll get you out of here on this

344
00:15:26,200 --> 00:15:31,560
Speaker 2: and again we appreciate uh the extended time. July twenty seventh,

345
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: Blah Muhammad's hand is raised and knew what's one thing

346
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:42,680
Speaker 2: you will have done effectively well in that fight? Breaking them? Yeah.

347
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:45,040
Speaker 2: I think that's the key to this fight is just

348
00:15:45,080 --> 00:15:46,040
Speaker 2: me breaking up.

349
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 4: And people are going to continue to say that, man,

350
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,240
Speaker 4: you can't strike with them, you can't do this, You're

351
00:15:51,240 --> 00:15:54,360
Speaker 4: just gonna lay on them. I haven't taken one take

352
00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,520
Speaker 4: down on top of my last two fights, and I've

353
00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,520
Speaker 4: dominated guys that they thought we're gonna dominate me. And

354
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:02,080
Speaker 4: when you look at my last five fights, there hasn't

355
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:04,280
Speaker 4: been a close fight. So when I go out there

356
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 4: and I dominate Lea Edwards, I'm gonna say I told

357
00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 4: you so well.

358
00:16:08,640 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: I just want to say, on behalf of the Anak

Speaker 2: my brothers appreciate you, guys, man, I love you guys.

370
00:16:47,960 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 3: Thanks.

371
00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:57,800
Speaker 2: There is really good human being, really good fighter, much

372
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 2: improved fighter from the twenty twenty one addition that fought

373
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:03,760
Speaker 2: Leon Edwards and Kenny. It is crazy to think about

374
00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:08,639
Speaker 2: the circumstances surrounding that short notice. Main event was to

375
00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:11,199
Speaker 2: be Kamzat Chimayev, and there's of course a lot of

376
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,040
Speaker 2: news there that we're going to get into here shortly,

377
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 2: but just a decidedly different fight in any number of

378
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 2: different ways coming up in the rematch between these two guys.

379
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:22,160
Speaker 6: There's no question about it. And I think he brought

380
00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:24,959
Speaker 6: up a lot of you know, key points about that.

381
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:28,440
Speaker 6: It's not like he's gone out there and only had

382
00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 6: a few fights. He has stayed busy, and he stayed

383
00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:34,280
Speaker 6: busy against a variety of opponents, and that's when you

384
00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,880
Speaker 6: learn the most, and that's when you gain a lot

385
00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:40,360
Speaker 6: of confidence in your methodology and your coaching and how

386
00:17:40,359 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 6: you're approaching things. And you could see that, not to

387
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:46,680
Speaker 6: mention the fact that he is a big game player,

388
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,760
Speaker 6: you know, since that fight. He has showed up to

389
00:17:49,840 --> 00:17:54,639
Speaker 6: fight and has surprised everybody. So I'm really excited about it.

390
00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 6: And I think he's talking about the right things as well.

391
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 6: In that you know, he has weaponized his cardial That

392
00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,800
Speaker 6: is something that is probably the most impressive part about

393
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:06,640
Speaker 6: his game. He does not get tired if he can

394
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:10,439
Speaker 6: force Leon Edwards to keep up with him and to

395
00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:12,320
Speaker 6: keep his volume up. And that's going to be the

396
00:18:12,320 --> 00:18:15,600
Speaker 6: problem because Edwards is very efficient and his decision making

397
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,200
Speaker 6: and how he throws and when he throws. But if

398
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:21,440
Speaker 6: Blall can push him past that point and break him,

399
00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,199
Speaker 6: that's when it starts to get interesting, and that's his

400
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:25,800
Speaker 6: shot to take that belt.

401
00:18:26,160 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 2: All right, We're going to get into all of the

402
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,640
Speaker 2: UFC three to H three stuff. We're going to get

403
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,040
Speaker 2: into the new Saudi Arabia main event. We're going to

404
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 2: get into Tatsuro Tyra was brilliance, and I promise Jay,

405
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to bring you back. But I'm gonna go

406
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:39,520
Speaker 2: on my single camera just to talk to Kenny for

407
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: a minute if I could about this Boston Celtics situation

408
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 2: in Game four in Dallas, because I need to get

409
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,880
Speaker 2: this off my chest, right, So Mike Sanden our it guy,

410
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:56,080
Speaker 2: great guy UFC employee runs into Dana White in Las Vegas,

411
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,479
Speaker 2: and part of their conversation is Mike, who, by the way,

412
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 2: was given floor seats by Dana to a regular season

413
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,080
Speaker 2: game in Phoenix earlier this year. Right, So he says, hey,

414
00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 2: is it okay if some of US Celtics fans watch

415
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:11,040
Speaker 2: this an NBA Finals game in your theater room? And

416
00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,200
Speaker 2: Dana's like, how about you guys go to Dallas instead?

417
00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 2: You know, and you know, right, you know the way

418
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,600
Speaker 2: Dana White does things, right, He doesn't want to shout

419
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,439
Speaker 2: from the rooftops about his philanthropy, right, but you know,

420
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:24,840
Speaker 2: rolls out the red carpet. The best seat I've ever

421
00:19:24,920 --> 00:19:29,399
Speaker 2: had for an NBA game. And if you think about

422
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:33,520
Speaker 2: just as a sports fan, right, seeing your team sitting

423
00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:36,280
Speaker 2: courtside for an NBA game is incredible, But then seeing

424
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 2: your team sit courtside for like an NBA playoff game

425
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,840
Speaker 2: takes it to another level. Then seeing your team sitting

426
00:19:41,840 --> 00:19:44,840
Speaker 2: on the floor for an NBA Finals game takes it

427
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 2: to another level, and yet another level when you get

428
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 2: to sit on the floor and see your team potentially

429
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 2: win an NBA championship. So I could barely eat before

430
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 2: the game. I was absolutely hammered meeting Mike Breen, the

431
00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:00,480
Speaker 2: lead voice of the UFC or of the NBA, right

432
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:04,800
Speaker 2: in that moment. I was already blasted out, and literally

433
00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:08,640
Speaker 2: within eight minutes the game was over. So I can't

434
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:10,600
Speaker 2: thank Dana enough. I got him a little gift, you know,

435
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 2: I didn't know what necessarily to get him. But it's

436
00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 2: just crazy, Kenny, when you're you know, relative to my expectations,

437
00:20:17,680 --> 00:20:19,400
Speaker 2: one of the most disappointed nights of my life.

438
00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 5: I mean, if honest, that's pretty sick though, dude.

439
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:26,800
Speaker 6: I mean again, that's one of those things where you know,

440
00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 6: you you were part of the finals. You know, I

441
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 6: think they're going to pull it off. You you at

442
00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,359
Speaker 6: least you know you contribute on that level. But yeah,

443
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:36,560
Speaker 6: I mean, unfortunately they didn't pull it off. But that

444
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,520
Speaker 6: is a that is a special, uh special occasion, man,

445
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 6: no question about that.

446
00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:43,520
Speaker 2: And uh man, Dane is the man. That's cool, dude.

447
00:20:43,520 --> 00:20:47,400
Speaker 2: They were down by like fifty three at one point. Yeah,

448
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 2: you know, oh my gosh, oh my gosh. All right,

449
00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:53,000
Speaker 2: you got anything on that Before you move it to

450
00:20:53,040 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 2: mixed Marshall, Arnie said, you contributed on that level. No,

451
00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,160
Speaker 2: he contributed on no level. Two Roads Back didn't bring

452
00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 2: anything to the table from a fan standpoint in terms

453
00:21:01,600 --> 00:21:04,080
Speaker 2: of getting the team a little bit juiced. I'm a

454
00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,159
Speaker 2: little nervous. Don't even get me started, though, but I

455
00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 2: will say, you know you went to this Patriots sixth

456
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:13,040
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. I was at Game four in Saint Louis

457
00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 2: when the Red Sox won the World Series in two

458
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,560
Speaker 2: thousand and four, breaking the eighty six year curse. So

459
00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 2: being in the building when the trophy is there, yeah,

460
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 2: and not like I was feeling so And Zach, lead

461
00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:28,240
Speaker 2: producer of the UFC, is a giant die hard every

462
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,359
Speaker 2: game of the season Celtics fans, so for him, I

463
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,760
Speaker 2: was especially disappointed. But you can move on to the

464
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 2: mixed martial arts. Shout out though to Mike for including

465
00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 2: me and Zach and Kevin McNamara in his foursome and

466
00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 2: a Dana White eternally grateful for that once in a

467
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:46,720
Speaker 2: lifetime experience. I just can't believe they got absolutely flattened

468
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,879
Speaker 2: like a pancake. All right, headlines brought to you by Quervo.

469
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 2: Now's a good time to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila.

470
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 2: And with respect to talk thro row Tyra, so much

471
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 2: else is going on in the world of mixed martial arts, Kenny.

472
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,560
Speaker 2: I'm leaving for Saudi Ray here in about twenty four hours,

473
00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,040
Speaker 2: and uh, tom Zat Chimayev is not going to be there.

474
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,040
Speaker 2: Robert Whitaker versus Ikram Alaskaov is your new main event,

475
00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 2: and uh, you know, I'm thankful that Whittaker is signing

476
00:22:11,320 --> 00:22:13,600
Speaker 2: on the dotted line for what is inherently a different

477
00:22:13,720 --> 00:22:16,639
Speaker 2: matchup and uh, you know, a less scintillating matchup at

478
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,480
Speaker 2: least in terms of the name value. It's it's hugely

479
00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,000
Speaker 2: disappointing for tom Zat Chimayav fans who really wanted to

480
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,239
Speaker 2: see him back in this type of setting against an

481
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 2: elite midleweight. You know, a lot of different UFC body

482
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 2: blows over the weekend that they responded well to. But

483
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,560
Speaker 2: what are your thoughts on the new look main event

484
00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 2: for Saudi? Yeah, very interesting.

485
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:36,480
Speaker 6: You know, I hope it's nothing serious on the part

486
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,240
Speaker 6: of Hamzat Chimayev, but I think it's a good get

487
00:22:40,280 --> 00:22:43,640
Speaker 6: in that it's a similar fighter to Hamzat Chimayev. As

488
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:47,439
Speaker 6: far as skill set, I don't think he's as dynamic

489
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,120
Speaker 6: of a striker as Chimayev, perhaps.

490
00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:54,160
Speaker 5: But still he's got power in his hands. The guy can.

491
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 6: Wrestle, he knows how to grapple on the ground, he

492
00:22:56,960 --> 00:23:00,480
Speaker 6: can submit you, he can knock you out. And it's

493
00:23:00,520 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 6: pretty early for a guy with that amount of UFC experience.

494
00:23:03,880 --> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 6: So I'm curious how that pans out. And props to

495
00:23:07,760 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 6: Whittaker for taking the fight. There's a lot of guys

496
00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:13,119
Speaker 6: that probably would not have taken this. Yeah, you know

497
00:23:13,160 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 6: that there's a lot for him to lose. I think

498
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:19,159
Speaker 6: it shows the confidence of Whittaker and his willingness to

499
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,720
Speaker 6: play ball for the organization, and so yeah, I think

500
00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:25,720
Speaker 6: it's about as good of a get, just based on

501
00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:29,400
Speaker 6: the fact that they are kind of replacing one fighter

502
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:30,560
Speaker 6: with a similar one.

503
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,439
Speaker 2: I guess bo Nicol was in the woods in Montana.

504
00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,840
Speaker 2: He was another guy who was offered this fight. The

505
00:23:37,720 --> 00:23:41,040
Speaker 2: rumblings out there that maybe Kamara Usman either injected his

506
00:23:41,119 --> 00:23:43,239
Speaker 2: name into the conversation. We are scheduled to talk to

507
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,600
Speaker 2: Ali Abdelaziz here live in about an hour. Ray Longo

508
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,679
Speaker 2: scheduled to join us in fifteen minutes. If the alarm

509
00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:52,560
Speaker 2: clock goes off, but it seems like they put their

510
00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 2: feelers out there in a lot of different directions. And

511
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,600
Speaker 2: I think Dana White said that Kamzat is violently ill.

512
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,840
Speaker 2: You know, Kamzat's manager, Kenny quickly put to rest any

513
00:24:01,920 --> 00:24:06,480
Speaker 2: talk of retirement. Uh, you know, Kevin, I only texted me,

514
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,680
Speaker 2: I hope it's not long covid. I mean, I don't

515
00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,000
Speaker 2: know exactly what that is or what is going on

516
00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,800
Speaker 2: with Comzot, but we all know that, uh, you know,

517
00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,919
Speaker 2: his health has not has not, it has you know,

518
00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 2: abandoned him several times now in the UFC. But his

519
00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,560
Speaker 2: manager's saying, you know, he ain't retiring. You know, this

520
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 2: guy's going to compete again. You just hope that his

521
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 2: body allows him to. Yeah, I I.

522
00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:34,439
Speaker 6: Hope it's not that as well a long COVID. I

523
00:24:34,520 --> 00:24:37,359
Speaker 6: know someone who has experienced that. It is not fun,

524
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:40,240
Speaker 6: It is terrible. They're not an athlete or anything like that.

525
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,720
Speaker 6: But you know, if Hobsot has been dealing with that,

526
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,400
Speaker 6: that would that would be bad. Hopefully it's just something else,

527
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:49,439
Speaker 6: some some virus that he had that he's fighting right

528
00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 6: now and will be back because he truly is an

529
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 6: excellent asset to the UFC obviously has a very popular following,

530
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,160
Speaker 6: and hopefully we'll see him back.

531
00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:01,800
Speaker 2: Cody says, there is something out there about food poisoning,

532
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:04,040
Speaker 2: so if that's what it is, you hope that he

533
00:25:04,119 --> 00:25:07,639
Speaker 2: can move on from that expeditiously. You got something, you know.

534
00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,520
Speaker 2: It's like, I know that you're not supposed to curse

535
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:12,320
Speaker 2: because you want to sound educated, you know, but it's

536
00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:13,919
Speaker 2: like I sit here in front of your face and

537
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 2: I just want to curse, you know at you. I

538
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:18,720
Speaker 2: want to talk shit to you. I know you're talking

539
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 2: about hom such am I and I know you're being serious.

540
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 2: So Kenny, forgive me, but it's like I just want

541
00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,120
Speaker 2: to talk shit to him. You know the other day

542
00:25:24,320 --> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 2: the other day, forgive me, right, I was calling him

543
00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 2: a bitch. He didn't like that I was calling him

544
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,159
Speaker 2: a bitch, right, And so he sends his video to

545
00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 2: Big Ron shout out Big Ron, and you know, Big

546
00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 2: Ron's like, why were you calling him a bitch? Right?

547
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:39,159
Speaker 2: And I was forgive me if people that are offended

548
00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 2: by this word, I'm sorry, but like I said to Ron,

549
00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,800
Speaker 2: like no, like just I was just for no reason

550
00:25:44,800 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 2: because he is like Anna, like you said, right, Like

551
00:25:47,320 --> 00:25:48,960
Speaker 2: basically I would say something and then I'd be like,

552
00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:51,639
Speaker 2: bitch right, like how you how's your day going today?

553
00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,639
Speaker 2: Bitch right? That's it. I just I know you were

554
00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:58,720
Speaker 2: talking seriously, but I know you've got stuff for me,

555
00:25:58,760 --> 00:25:59,800
Speaker 2: but it's like, what am I here for?

556
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 3: He knows.

557
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I'm sure this is what Kuervo was looking

558
00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:08,840
Speaker 2: for when they sponsored headlines. You just set up your

559
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:13,040
Speaker 2: laptop and there's fucking audio coming out of it, you know, Like,

560
00:26:13,119 --> 00:26:15,879
Speaker 2: so just don't sabotage the whole show. I'd like to

561
00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,239
Speaker 2: get back to Saudi Arabia and Kenny really quickly if

562
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 2: I could. Yes, you know. Ikramala Scarev has been scheduled

563
00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 2: at times to face some absolute killers in the UFC,

564
00:26:24,920 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 2: and it hasn't materialized. He was favored to beat Paolo

565
00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:33,200
Speaker 2: Costa at UFC two ninety one, and Robert Whittaker, who

566
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:37,280
Speaker 2: was to be a plus two hundred underdog against Kamzat Chimayev,

567
00:26:37,680 --> 00:26:41,320
Speaker 2: is only minus one thirty against ik Ramala Scaov. So

568
00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 2: seems like there's a potentially really good middleweight here, even

569
00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 2: if we haven't seen him get tested by the UFC

570
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:50,359
Speaker 2: Gauntlet just yet.

571
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, and you know, that's where perhaps I'm a little skeptical,

572
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:58,920
Speaker 6: you know, of the odds in that regard, not saying

573
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:02,480
Speaker 6: he can. I think that he is definitely a dangerous guy.

574
00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 6: He you know, has good structure to his punches. The

575
00:27:05,760 --> 00:27:08,240
Speaker 6: guy can wrestle, the guy can grab all that stuff. Okay,

576
00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,600
Speaker 6: but he has not seen as many rounds as someone

577
00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 6: like Robert Whittaker and has not faced quite frankly, the

578
00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,560
Speaker 6: same level of competition, right, I mean, he's only a

579
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 6: couple of fights in However, he has made quick work

580
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:24,920
Speaker 6: of the two guys that he has fought in the UFC.

581
00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 6: So I think based on his skill set, that's why

582
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,160
Speaker 6: we're seeing those odds, and I think Whittaker is going

583
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 6: to take him very seriously. I would also add, without

584
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:38,840
Speaker 6: getting into you know more which we will, is that

585
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,240
Speaker 6: he kind of is a similar guy to drinks dupless Ce,

586
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,359
Speaker 6: maybe a little bit more technical than a drinkist duplessy.

587
00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:47,960
Speaker 6: So I think, and we all know what happened in

588
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 6: that fight against Whittaker. So has Whittaker learned the lessons

589
00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,160
Speaker 6: of that fight? Will he be that much more prepared?

590
00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:56,679
Speaker 6: Is he going to underestimate someone like Alice Garoff. I

591
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 6: don't think he should, because Alice Garoff, I do think

592
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,240
Speaker 6: is one of those guys who could surprise, no question

593
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:02,800
Speaker 6: about it.

594
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,679
Speaker 2: It could be a star in that division. I do

595
00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 2: know one sharp better who is absolutely salivating over Robert Whitaker,

596
00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:10,760
Speaker 2: and that minus one twenty five minus one thirty range.

597
00:28:10,800 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 2: So we'll see if Kenny later in the program uses

598
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 2: any of his hard earned cash on Robert Whitaker. And

599
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,280
Speaker 2: by the way, seven selections from Ken Flow and Brian

600
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,080
Speaker 2: Petrie coming up later today here on the Anakin Florian podcast.

601
00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:28,560
Speaker 2: All right, UFC three to oh three McGregor versus Chandler, Nope,

602
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,919
Speaker 2: UFC three oh three, Padata versus PROHSKEA and Kenny. You

603
00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,240
Speaker 2: know one thing that Alex Padta has not done is

604
00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:39,040
Speaker 2: defend his UFC Midawaight championship that he of course no

605
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 2: longer has. But sure is nice when you have a

606
00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:45,800
Speaker 2: champion like this who seemingly can make the weight with

607
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:48,640
Speaker 2: relatives on a couple of weeks. Notice there aren't that

608
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,760
Speaker 2: many champions on this roster that can a make the

609
00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,560
Speaker 2: weight and b have the confidence to beat a number

610
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 2: one contender type on short notice. So Uri Prohoska deserves

611
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: a shit ton of credit it as well. But all

612
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 2: hail Alex Padata for starters, for saving the day and

613
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 2: uh getting the fan base excited yet again for a

614
00:29:06,120 --> 00:29:08,160
Speaker 2: massive pay per view, not unlike he did for UFC

615
00:29:08,200 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 2: three hundred a few months ago.

616
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:09,600
Speaker 3: Yeah.

617
00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: I tweeted this the other day, UH, and I said, oh,

618
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,120
Speaker 2: I gotta follow you well at Kenny, S'm not following.

619
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:18,200
Speaker 5: The son of a Yeah, you know he said.

620
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 6: You know, I said, is there anybody who has maximized

621
00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,280
Speaker 6: you know, their time the UFC better or more than

622
00:29:25,400 --> 00:29:28,280
Speaker 6: someone like Alex Pereira some of that effect, and I

623
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,200
Speaker 6: know there's not many. The fact that this guy has

624
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:35,880
Speaker 6: come in uh pretty quickly become a champion uh and

625
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 6: then became a champion in two divisions.

626
00:29:38,240 --> 00:29:40,200
Speaker 5: It's unbelievable what this guy has done.

627
00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:43,600
Speaker 6: The fact that he's willing to turn this around UH

628
00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 6: and fight a very dangerous guy in Uri Prahasca just

629
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,960
Speaker 6: shows the confidence, the level that he's at and how

630
00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:52,520
Speaker 6: willing he is to fight.

631
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:53,280
Speaker 2: For the organization.

632
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,280
Speaker 6: That's a guy that you can rely on, and the

633
00:29:56,640 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 6: dude is an absolute savage. I would say for Uri Prosca,

634
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,800
Speaker 6: I would say this if I was coaching him. My

635
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,680
Speaker 6: game plan would revolve around not hitting Alex Pereira in

636
00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:10,120
Speaker 6: the balls, don't kick him right, football right, because something

637
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 6: will happen.

638
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 2: So as far as Connor McGregor is concerned, Kenny, I

639
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 2: guess he didn't scream from the rooftops. I'm not going

640
00:30:21,920 --> 00:30:26,160
Speaker 2: to retire like Kamzat Chimayev's manager did. But a lot

641
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 2: of people are leaning into that, saying, oh, if we

642
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:30,239
Speaker 2: don't see Connor UFC three ZHO three, we're never going

643
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:32,800
Speaker 2: to see him again. And I don't buy into that

644
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:35,520
Speaker 2: at all. I think we're going to see Connor McGregor

645
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 2: Q four, twenty twenty four against Michael Chandler. There are

646
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,880
Speaker 2: two parts of this, right, so I'm curious how you

647
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 2: feel about Michael Chandler's stare in two years off in

648
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 2: the face. But what are your thoughts on the fighting future,

649
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:52,520
Speaker 2: immediate and otherwise for the biggest superstar this sport has

650
00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:52,960
Speaker 2: ever seen.

651
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,800
Speaker 6: Well, when you asked me that question a couple shows ago,

652
00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:58,840
Speaker 6: and what I thought was happening with that cancelation of

653
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:02,400
Speaker 6: the Connor McGregor press conference in Ireland, you know, I

654
00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,000
Speaker 6: think that's exactly what was happening that they were trying

655
00:31:05,040 --> 00:31:08,560
Speaker 6: to make that happen. They were trying to assess exactly

656
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,080
Speaker 6: how bad this injury was to see if they could

657
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 6: actually pull it off. And I think in the end

658
00:31:13,360 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 6: it was probably a little bit too much and Connor

659
00:31:15,320 --> 00:31:16,239
Speaker 6: didn't want to risk it.

660
00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:18,600
Speaker 2: In a way, I think it's a good thing. It's

661
00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 2: unfortunate that we don't get that fight.

662
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:23,120
Speaker 6: However, I think it's a good thing in that Connor

663
00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 6: wants to show, you know, he wants to be at

664
00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:28,400
Speaker 6: his best. He doesn't want to go in there again

665
00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 6: with another injury like he did against Dustin Poirier, like

666
00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:35,680
Speaker 6: he did against Habibnrmaga Metof and give you know, eighty

667
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:39,360
Speaker 6: sixty fifty forty percent of himself. He's pull off in

668
00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,719
Speaker 6: the past like he did against Chad Mendez was insane.

669
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:46,600
Speaker 6: But there are limits, especially as you start to get

670
00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:48,520
Speaker 6: up in age and you know, have more fights in

671
00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 6: the UFC. So I think we will see it. I

672
00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 6: think it's going to be delayed a little bit, That's

673
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:54,920
Speaker 6: what I think is going on. And for Chandler, he's

674
00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:57,479
Speaker 6: gotta wait, what is he gonna do? Take a fight against,

675
00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 6: you know, a lesser named opponent less, he can make

676
00:32:01,320 --> 00:32:03,280
Speaker 6: more in a condom. He's gonna make as much as

677
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,960
Speaker 6: maybe five or six fights fighting Connor McGregor. Right, so,

678
00:32:07,400 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 6: when you fought as much as Chandler, you take that opportunity.

679
00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:11,400
Speaker 2: You wait for it.

680
00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 6: So unfortunate news there, but I think we will get

681
00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:16,600
Speaker 6: it in a not too distant future.

682
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,400
Speaker 2: Right, you waited this long? I mean with respect to

683
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:21,680
Speaker 2: one of my all time favorite fighters, the Underground King

684
00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,880
Speaker 2: Eddie Alvarez. Was Michael Chandler going to fight somebody like

685
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:28,120
Speaker 2: Eddie Alvarez? He's waited this long. I think you wait

686
00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,239
Speaker 2: for the Connor McGregor payday. You do have to have

687
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,040
Speaker 2: some end date though perhaps in your mind that all right.

688
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,840
Speaker 2: If I can't get one in by the year end

689
00:32:35,880 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 2: pay per view, I think maybe December seventh or so

690
00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:41,280
Speaker 2: in Las Vegas, Larry Bird's birthday, then you got to

691
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:45,920
Speaker 2: you gotta think about a different opponent, because these are

692
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,440
Speaker 2: prime years and Michael Chandler makes pretty good money, even

693
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:51,200
Speaker 2: if it isn't Connor McGregor. But I do think that

694
00:32:51,240 --> 00:32:55,240
Speaker 2: fight is going to materialize at some point in twenty

695
00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:57,760
Speaker 2: twenty four, I really really really do, and hopefully it's

696
00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,800
Speaker 2: not too serious an injury. I really do believe, somewhat

697
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,920
Speaker 2: to Kenny's point, that Connor kind of wanted to fight hurt, uh,

698
00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,680
Speaker 2: you know, but just was either advised against it or

699
00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:09,520
Speaker 2: just felt like in a couple months he'd be ready

700
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 2: to go. But I think he doesn't want to let

701
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,680
Speaker 2: anybody down. He wants to fight. Yeah, but the idea

702
00:33:13,680 --> 00:33:15,760
Speaker 2: that you think he's gonna fight in twenty twenty four,

703
00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:17,240
Speaker 2: I would say, if that, what are the odds on?

704
00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 2: If you want to bet right now, I'll take your

705
00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 2: action on that. I to see him. Yeah, I'm just saying,

706
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 2: if the odds existed, I do not expect Connor McGregor

707
00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 2: to compete in twenty twenty four. Ken Flow, what do

708
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:27,920
Speaker 2: you think about that? I think you definitely fight. Yeah,

709
00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:30,400
Speaker 2: all right, yeah, we'll take your action. Guys know the injury.

710
00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 2: We'll take care you guys know the injury. Apparently no,

711
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:35,760
Speaker 2: all right, you did not.

712
00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,920
Speaker 6: But it's I think I think the fact that they

713
00:33:38,960 --> 00:33:41,000
Speaker 6: were again, maybe it was just them trying to scramble

714
00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 6: to get a new fight and that's why there was

715
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 6: a delay. But I truly think they were trying to

716
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:48,600
Speaker 6: make it happen. That's why it was like we heard

717
00:33:48,640 --> 00:33:51,000
Speaker 6: the it's on, it's off, it's on, it's off, like

718
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:52,720
Speaker 6: that kind of talk. I think they were trying to

719
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:55,280
Speaker 6: make it happen, which to me probably means it's just

720
00:33:55,320 --> 00:33:57,560
Speaker 6: going to be a little delay and not a delay

721
00:33:57,640 --> 00:34:00,640
Speaker 6: to twenty twenty five. But you're right, we don't we

722
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 6: don't know the injury.

723
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,160
Speaker 2: Well, it was hard to think of a champion other

724
00:34:04,200 --> 00:34:07,280
Speaker 2: than Alex Podata who could have come to the aid

725
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,080
Speaker 2: of UFC three oh three. And here's Alex Podata who

726
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:13,880
Speaker 2: real quickly ken Film made his UFC debut November twenty

727
00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 2: twenty one at UFC two sixty eight against Andreas Mikhailitis

728
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:22,520
Speaker 2: thirty one months ago. He's five months shy of three

729
00:34:22,600 --> 00:34:25,800
Speaker 2: years in the UFC. He has wins over five former

730
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:30,960
Speaker 2: UFC champions. And there's a guy quinnwell Otoni Kenny do

731
00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 2: you know that name? He had three pfl bouts canceled.

732
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 2: He submitted Alex Potata with a rear naked choke back

733
00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:39,720
Speaker 2: in the day. You know they went and found Cesar

734
00:34:39,800 --> 00:34:44,200
Speaker 2: al Meda. You know, maybe O Tony right. Part of

735
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,719
Speaker 2: the reason Nick Ramala scarev right loan pro loss to

736
00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,239
Speaker 2: kamzat Chimaiyev if I'm not mistaken, correct, All right, you

737
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 2: did some homework, right, you get those poll results for

738
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,319
Speaker 2: me for later in the program. We'll get to Tatsuro Tira.

739
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:59,360
Speaker 2: Did you watch that fight this weekend? Yeah? No, nah,

740
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:02,399
Speaker 2: UFC no, you see night night. Yeah, it was late

741
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:07,839
Speaker 2: right you pause. I mean, like you know, if you're

742
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,080
Speaker 2: getting me on to make picks, I took one off.

743
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 2: I took one off. That's fine. No, I think now

744
00:35:14,040 --> 00:35:18,759
Speaker 2: we are acutely aware of where your UFC fanaticism. So

745
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,440
Speaker 2: if I watched like forty eight out of forty nine.

746
00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,799
Speaker 5: To be fair, to be fair of Jason, it wasn't

747
00:35:23,840 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 5: a terrible decision, yeah, I.

748
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:27,879
Speaker 2: Exactly, A pretty good decision by you. Yeah, a lot

749
00:35:27,880 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 2: of decisions, right. This was the one hundredth live event

750
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:35,279
Speaker 2: at the UFC Apex, you know, which did have me

751
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,600
Speaker 2: in some respects. I mean, yeah, company guys, some might

752
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:40,359
Speaker 2: call me a shill, right, but I'm thinking about the math, Kenny, Right,

753
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 2: If you think about average of twelve fights over one

754
00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:45,759
Speaker 2: hundred event is twelve hundred flights that didn't happen in

755
00:35:45,760 --> 00:35:49,040
Speaker 2: front of a UFC crowd because of a global pandemic

756
00:35:49,280 --> 00:35:52,000
Speaker 2: in lodge Pass. I'm having a hard time putting my

757
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:55,600
Speaker 2: words together today. Yeah, I'm distracting. Incidentally, you're distracted by

758
00:35:55,600 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 2: my flub. No, I'm distracting you. You keep looking over here,

759
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,480
Speaker 2: making you what do you want me to look at?

760
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,960
Speaker 2: Keep going, Keep going. So it's UFC three ZHO three

761
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 2: PA Data versus pro Hoska, and a lot of the

762
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:10,600
Speaker 2: fan base is about as excited as they could be,

763
00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 2: right given the fact that Conor McGregor is not making

764
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:19,879
Speaker 2: that walk Kenny co main event Brian Ortega versus Diego Lopez. Jay,

765
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,480
Speaker 2: if you could do something with yourself and chase a

766
00:36:22,480 --> 00:36:24,600
Speaker 2: betting line on that for me, that would be fantastic.

767
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:27,640
Speaker 2: Kenny Diego Lopez has been looking for a fight and

768
00:36:28,200 --> 00:36:30,479
Speaker 2: Brian Ortega has not been all that active, So there's

769
00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,879
Speaker 2: credit to be uh to be handed out on both

770
00:36:32,920 --> 00:36:36,440
Speaker 2: sides of this. This is a wildly fascinating co main

771
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 2: event matchup of Brazilian jiu jitsu black belts and of hairstyles.

772
00:36:40,239 --> 00:36:43,880
Speaker 6: Uh yeah, you know this is uh, this is amazing.

773
00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 6: I think it was Laura Gilbert, our friend Laura, who

774
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 6: said this was the co main events.

775
00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:51,440
Speaker 2: Oh, very well done.

776
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:55,440
Speaker 6: Laura, you know, I think, uh, I think this is

777
00:36:55,440 --> 00:36:57,800
Speaker 6: a really good fight. I mean, you have Diego Lopez,

778
00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 6: who has been on an absolute really was on fire

779
00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:05,280
Speaker 6: his last fight in general, really didn't make any mistakes

780
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 6: at all. He's extremely aggressive. He also is very good

781
00:37:09,080 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 6: on the ground. I'm fascinated if this fight does hit

782
00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 6: the mat. I think he should have the advantage on

783
00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 6: the feet. But or take as one of those guys

784
00:37:18,120 --> 00:37:21,760
Speaker 6: who will not go away. He always, you know, seemingly,

785
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:24,960
Speaker 6: you know, tries at the very least to find a way.

786
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 6: And I think it's a great fight. I mean, that's

787
00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:30,640
Speaker 6: going to deliver either way, It's going to be an

788
00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:31,560
Speaker 6: absolute classic.

789
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:32,280
Speaker 2: In my opinion.

790
00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 6: I think that that's another great get to add to

791
00:37:36,600 --> 00:37:39,360
Speaker 6: not only the profile of the fighters involved on that card,

792
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,320
Speaker 6: but to the action. And I think that's really more important.

793
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:44,120
Speaker 6: At the end of the day, those guys are going

794
00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:45,399
Speaker 6: to deliver a great fight.

795
00:37:47,080 --> 00:37:51,080
Speaker 2: Man. The Diego Lopez improvement has just been so marked

796
00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:56,480
Speaker 2: and this fight could certainly headline a UFC fight night.

797
00:37:56,560 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 2: I mean, it's such a good fight, right that you

798
00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,120
Speaker 2: for Sometimes when people consider the source, when I get

799
00:38:03,440 --> 00:38:05,960
Speaker 2: so enthusiastic, it's like, oh, well, you know, he's just

800
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:08,520
Speaker 2: going to defend the pay per view, but Jay, I mean, right,

801
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:11,479
Speaker 2: well the line Diego Lopez minus one thirty five, Brian

802
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:14,360
Speaker 2: Ortega plus one fourteen and Kenny. I'll ask you, I

803
00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:17,720
Speaker 2: don't follow all these guys on Instagram to the extent

804
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 2: where I know exactly where they're at. I know everybody

805
00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,640
Speaker 2: is training all the time, a couple of times a day,

806
00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:26,239
Speaker 2: but I just would love to know individually where both

807
00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:29,360
Speaker 2: where each of these guys are at rele and you know,

808
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:32,719
Speaker 2: short notice opportunities can be funky, So I uh, you know,

809
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 2: I got a lot of respect for Ortega's body of

810
00:38:34,760 --> 00:38:37,920
Speaker 2: work over the years, But Diego Lopez, I mean, you know,

811
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,560
Speaker 2: I can see why he's favor right, and it's it's

812
00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:42,080
Speaker 2: tough to know.

813
00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 6: It's tough to know the training schedules because there are

814
00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,799
Speaker 6: certainly some guys who only train or at least only

815
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:53,040
Speaker 6: trained hard when they have a fight. I don't know

816
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:56,640
Speaker 6: what that case is for Ortega. I would assume he's

817
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,480
Speaker 6: kind of always staying pretty busy in training. What I

818
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:03,160
Speaker 6: do know with Diego Lopez is definitely training hard, probably

819
00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:04,360
Speaker 6: all the damn time.

820
00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:06,000
Speaker 2: So I think that's interesting.

821
00:39:06,080 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 6: But yeah, I mean, uh that that's gonna that needs

822
00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:11,480
Speaker 6: to be taken into consideration.

823
00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,759
Speaker 2: It really does the guy who has stayed busy. It's

824
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:18,960
Speaker 2: really a good point because Alex Padda is a warrior

825
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:22,320
Speaker 2: and so is Yuri Prohaska, and they can invoke the

826
00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,520
Speaker 2: warrior spirit all they want, right, But Alex Paeda has

827
00:39:25,600 --> 00:39:29,440
Speaker 2: been doing appearances in Australia, so this is not ideal

828
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:32,040
Speaker 2: in terms of a timeline for a title defense for

829
00:39:32,120 --> 00:39:34,480
Speaker 2: him to be sure, right, and Balla Muhammad couldn't have

830
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:36,839
Speaker 2: put his name in the mix fast enough to come

831
00:39:36,880 --> 00:39:38,839
Speaker 2: into this spot of three zero three now and tell

832
00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:41,160
Speaker 2: you know, obviously that was never a realistic possibility for

833
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,239
Speaker 2: a variety of reasons. But the reason he puts his

834
00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 2: name in there is because he is ready now, you know.

835
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:49,040
Speaker 2: And also I think for Ortega, right, putting yourself in

836
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:51,360
Speaker 2: position to make the weight. So obviously by signing on

837
00:39:51,360 --> 00:39:53,520
Speaker 2: the dotted line, you know he's been doing enough to

838
00:39:53,560 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 2: put himself in position to actually make the weight, because

839
00:39:55,880 --> 00:39:57,399
Speaker 2: he is not the type of guy who I think

840
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,759
Speaker 2: would sign unless he couldn't make the weight. But does

841
00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,200
Speaker 2: this whole fight card. We'll get to Anthony lyonhart Smith

842
00:40:04,239 --> 00:40:06,520
Speaker 2: here in the second. But does this situation just not

843
00:40:06,680 --> 00:40:08,880
Speaker 2: speak to something that we talk about all the time.

844
00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 2: And I talked to guys about it. I talked to

845
00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:14,160
Speaker 2: like Anthony Fluffy Hernandez. Right, it's it's hard for him

846
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,239
Speaker 2: to step up on short notice make one hundred and

847
00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:19,919
Speaker 2: eighty six pounds, you know, But sometimes main event opportunities

848
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 2: and big time fight opportunities materialize on short notice. How

849
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 2: many of the top fifteen guys forty five, fifty five,

850
00:40:26,360 --> 00:40:29,520
Speaker 2: seventy and eighty five the marquee divisions with the most

851
00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,360
Speaker 2: talent and in theory of the most short notice opportunities,

852
00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 2: how many of those guys can actually make the weight

853
00:40:34,160 --> 00:40:37,439
Speaker 2: on fourteen to seventeen days notice. And sometimes I feel

854
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 2: like fighters Kenny need to be of a mentality that's like,

855
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 2: all right, I'm going to look at these three years

856
00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:43,239
Speaker 2: of my career and I'm going to make sure that

857
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,960
Speaker 2: for these three years, like I'm being smart, but that

858
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:48,960
Speaker 2: I'm in camp, I'm training all the fucking time, and

859
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,160
Speaker 2: I'm able to make one hundred and forty six pounds

860
00:40:51,560 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 2: within two weeks for the next four years. And that's

861
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 2: my commitment, no question about it.

862
00:40:56,680 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 6: And I think that's the value of having someone like

863
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:03,160
Speaker 6: Alex Pereire in the right weight class. Now, he's not

864
00:41:03,320 --> 00:41:05,200
Speaker 6: doing this if he's fighting at one hundred and eighty

865
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:05,680
Speaker 6: five pounds.

866
00:41:05,680 --> 00:41:06,759
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think he is.

867
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:09,759
Speaker 6: Anyway, he might be crazy enough to try, but this

868
00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:11,960
Speaker 6: is the value of being at two hundred and five

869
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 6: pounds now for him. He can do things like that

870
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 6: because it isn't this ridiculous weight cut for him.

871
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:23,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, how about ray Longo eleven fifteen am

872
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:27,120
Speaker 2: Eastern time. He is ready to go. The cold brew

873
00:41:27,200 --> 00:41:30,439
Speaker 2: must be flowing, maybe even a cold brew IV. Let's

874
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:31,640
Speaker 2: get to the star of the show in the Ray

875
00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:33,920
Speaker 2: long a minute.

876
00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:35,120
Speaker 5: There he is.

877
00:41:37,280 --> 00:41:39,399
Speaker 3: Wait, I was just wait a bit.

878
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 2: All right, we're feeling guys, we're feeling great. How are

879
00:41:46,680 --> 00:41:47,759
Speaker 2: you good?

880
00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:50,319
Speaker 3: Happy Father's Day? That old you fathers, So I hope

881
00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:55,080
Speaker 3: you had a wonderful, exciting, blessed day. Thank you started

882
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:56,640
Speaker 3: with you, John. How was your day?

883
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,240
Speaker 2: My father's Day was okay. I went to the movies

884
00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 2: with with my children, which was very exciting, and I

885
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,960
Speaker 2: got Chinese food last night, so that was daddy's choice.

886
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,279
Speaker 2: How how was your father's day? Movie star?

887
00:42:09,080 --> 00:42:13,759
Speaker 3: Very nice? Yeah, a nice nice brunch. Okay, had a

888
00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:15,920
Speaker 3: great day, nice man, relaxing.

889
00:42:16,480 --> 00:42:20,080
Speaker 2: So oh we're going with the hot core feet today.

890
00:42:20,239 --> 00:42:23,000
Speaker 3: Huh. That's a little matchet tea in there.

891
00:42:23,360 --> 00:42:26,160
Speaker 2: Oh, that stuff's got a lot of caffeine. I get

892
00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:28,720
Speaker 2: you all, fucking Joel. No, it doesn't. Oh it doesn't

893
00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,160
Speaker 2: know it doesn't. Hey, but speaking of Father's Day, I

894
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 2: know he's not a father, but uh, Bruce Buffer had

895
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 2: a good Father's Day yesterday? Did he not? Did you

896
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:38,960
Speaker 2: talk about buff? Yesterday? The World Series of Fulkers he

897
00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:42,680
Speaker 2: won two hundred and twelve thousand dollars eighth place. That's wow,

898
00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:49,040
Speaker 2: it's time, it is time. It's about time this. I

899
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:51,279
Speaker 2: got a bracelet. He almost got one this weekend. No,

900
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,960
Speaker 2: we love Bruce Buffer. I actually had a chance to

901
00:42:54,040 --> 00:42:56,799
Speaker 2: give him ten thousand dollars or twenty thousand dollars in

902
00:42:56,800 --> 00:43:00,440
Speaker 2: advance of this tournament, and I said to him, if

903
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:02,920
Speaker 2: I was single, I'd be backing your ass all the time.

904
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,799
Speaker 2: But it's sometimes a difficult sell. Hey, honey, what do

905
00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:07,840
Speaker 2: you think about me back in Buffer in this poker

906
00:43:07,880 --> 00:43:10,040
Speaker 2: tournament this weekend for twenty thousand dollars?

907
00:43:10,160 --> 00:43:12,879
Speaker 6: Hey, maybe you shouldn't say if I was single I'd

908
00:43:12,960 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 6: be back in his ass.

909
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:14,800
Speaker 2: I mean, come.

910
00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:21,480
Speaker 5: One at that clip put on video time around the internet.

911
00:43:22,040 --> 00:43:23,760
Speaker 2: Wow, John, you're in trouble, dude.

912
00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:28,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh my gosh, that's subconscious mind has a really

913
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:32,200
Speaker 3: crazy way of working, Kenny, Oh, very crazy way of working.

914
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,799
Speaker 2: Yep. I mean I wanted to go live. I just

915
00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:42,440
Speaker 2: want to do it live. So ray we have a

916
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:46,080
Speaker 2: lot of things to get into and I almost don't

917
00:43:46,120 --> 00:43:48,439
Speaker 2: even know where to begin. I'm somewhat bemoaning the fact

918
00:43:48,440 --> 00:43:50,600
Speaker 2: that we haven't gotten to tatsuro Tira, but I do

919
00:43:50,640 --> 00:43:52,680
Speaker 2: want to get your thoughts if I could on all

920
00:43:52,719 --> 00:43:57,120
Speaker 2: of this UFC shakeup, on Kamzat Shimayev and Connor McGregor

921
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,360
Speaker 2: and their relative unreliability. And I say that with all

922
00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:03,239
Speaker 2: due respect, but uh, you know, I do think both

923
00:44:03,280 --> 00:44:05,200
Speaker 2: will be back, and I do think this is just

924
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,680
Speaker 2: in some part the fight game and guys just not

925
00:44:07,840 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 2: being healthy. But uh, you know, two high profile defections

926
00:44:12,560 --> 00:44:15,280
Speaker 2: here affecting these massive live events coming up to close

927
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 2: the month, Raymond.

928
00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:18,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, what what what's the question?

929
00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,800
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, exactly, what's what's the question? I mean

930
00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,200
Speaker 2: a lot of media like do you go at the

931
00:44:26,239 --> 00:44:27,520
Speaker 2: other hosts like this or just.

932
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 3: Met no definite.

933
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:30,440
Speaker 7: But you know a lot of guys I.

934
00:44:30,400 --> 00:44:32,640
Speaker 2: Work with, Joe Rogan, Michael Bisin, they like the open

935
00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,920
Speaker 2: ended nature of my probing. But if you want a

936
00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,000
Speaker 2: hard question, what were your thoughts when you heard the news?

937
00:44:38,120 --> 00:44:38,880
Speaker 2: Is that fair?

938
00:44:39,400 --> 00:44:42,960
Speaker 3: Very disappointed? I mean, like everybody else, very disappointing, And

939
00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:48,200
Speaker 3: h kind of could say, you know, I'm not surprised.

940
00:44:48,320 --> 00:44:51,080
Speaker 3: How's that? Yeah, I'm not surprised. I mean, I mean, look,

941
00:44:51,160 --> 00:44:54,920
Speaker 3: McGregor did have he hasn't fort since the injury. He

942
00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 3: looks like he's off the rails on social media. I

943
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:02,040
Speaker 3: think somebody did do their due diligence. That's what I think.

944
00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,120
Speaker 3: Really see if this guy was ready to go and

945
00:45:05,680 --> 00:45:08,359
Speaker 3: you know, you know, do all the right things to

946
00:45:08,400 --> 00:45:10,440
Speaker 3: make that happen, and the other guy has always been

947
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:14,160
Speaker 3: bitching since COVID and he's you know, I don't know.

948
00:45:14,680 --> 00:45:17,200
Speaker 3: I'm not surprised by any of it, but disappointing because

949
00:45:17,239 --> 00:45:18,640
Speaker 3: I was looking forward to the fights.

950
00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:22,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, uh was your guy? Al Jamaine Sterling offered

951
00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,400
Speaker 2: a fight against Diego Lopez or Brian or Teger.

952
00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,520
Speaker 3: No, all right, and not that I know of?

953
00:45:27,640 --> 00:45:29,320
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, how about that?

954
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 3: But al Joe's in party mode. Man, what Aljo wants

955
00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 3: to do though he wants ye and I don't blame

956
00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:38,880
Speaker 3: him even while he was the champ, he wants to

957
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,960
Speaker 3: fight on his own terms. And if you watch that

958
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:46,320
Speaker 3: behind the scenes thing, I thought that was just close

959
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:48,839
Speaker 3: to appalling, to be honest with you could see how

960
00:45:48,920 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 3: uncomfortable Aljo was and the champ revolved, the revolved the

961
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,080
Speaker 3: fight around him. I mean, look what they did to him.

962
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:58,320
Speaker 3: How come Morob didn't go in the ring after O'Malley

963
00:45:58,360 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 3: and Vera? How come they didn't have Morobin stalking him

964
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 3: right and then fighting him three months later? I mean

965
00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:10,239
Speaker 3: that this is like nothing surprises me anymore. McGregor Kam said,

966
00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:13,839
Speaker 3: you know, as a narrative, we're not involved in it,

967
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,920
Speaker 3: and this is what happens.

968
00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was that was hard to ingest. That h

969
00:46:20,000 --> 00:46:20,680
Speaker 2: was to me.

970
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:21,680
Speaker 3: It was gut wrenching.

971
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:26,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, it's interesting. I message a little

972
00:46:26,560 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 2: bit with al Jo and I we talked about this

973
00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,680
Speaker 2: on our show Thursday night with Bila Mohammed. And while

974
00:46:31,719 --> 00:46:34,680
Speaker 2: I think it is, that show is riveting and that

975
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:37,200
Speaker 2: is the type of content that I eat up Blau

976
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:39,840
Speaker 2: said the same thing. Can't get enough of that inside

977
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:44,040
Speaker 2: that room. But man, sitting watching Aljo there, I wanted

978
00:46:44,040 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 2: to jump through my TV set. And there's a lot

979
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:47,840
Speaker 2: of things frankly that I can't say right now that

980
00:46:47,840 --> 00:46:49,319
Speaker 2: i'd like to say, Kenny, do you know what they're

981
00:46:49,360 --> 00:46:54,400
Speaker 2: referencing this inside the UFC documentary right fighting? Sorry on wiku,

982
00:46:54,520 --> 00:46:57,759
Speaker 2: I believe, yeah, yeah, I have not seen it yet either,

983
00:46:57,800 --> 00:47:00,200
Speaker 2: but that is what they're referencing for for Ken Flow

984
00:47:00,239 --> 00:47:02,880
Speaker 2: and the listeners and viewers who maybe have not a

985
00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,480
Speaker 2: modicum of a clue as to what you're talking about.

986
00:47:05,480 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 2: Thank you, thank you, But right, I agree, man, like

987
00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:13,879
Speaker 2: I uh yeah, we were talking about And this doesn't

988
00:47:13,880 --> 00:47:17,680
Speaker 2: apply to Alja who won the Belton and Thrice defended it, right,

989
00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:21,520
Speaker 2: But for Diego Lopez, right, his whole mentality over the

990
00:47:21,560 --> 00:47:24,359
Speaker 2: next next half decade, right as a rank contender, is

991
00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,960
Speaker 2: he's going to be ready so that when there's an opportunity.

992
00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:30,640
Speaker 2: Right this, this fight against Brian Ortega didn't even exist.

993
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 2: He's not stepping in for anybody. It's the co main

994
00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:37,719
Speaker 2: event International Fight Week twenty twenty four, right, five days ago, right,

995
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:40,440
Speaker 2: I mean you have to be ready, I think, and

996
00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 2: a lot of these contenders are just too big to

997
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,279
Speaker 2: be ready, you know. But what do you think about that?

998
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:47,520
Speaker 2: I don't know if you heard our conversation about being

999
00:47:47,560 --> 00:47:49,399
Speaker 2: of a mentality. If I'm trying to win a world

1000
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,920
Speaker 2: championship and get the Brian Ortega fight, you know, f

1001
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:54,319
Speaker 2: fight may never materialize, like signing on the dotted line,

1002
00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:55,719
Speaker 2: but when you need to save a pay per view,

1003
00:47:55,719 --> 00:47:58,279
Speaker 2: maybe you get that big fight and Diego Lopez is

1004
00:47:58,320 --> 00:47:59,400
Speaker 2: training enough to take it.

1005
00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:02,200
Speaker 3: Oh, I listen. I listened a little bit. I think

1006
00:48:02,239 --> 00:48:03,759
Speaker 3: I got the gist of what you were saying, and

1007
00:48:03,800 --> 00:48:06,400
Speaker 3: I agree with you one hundred percent. These guys have

1008
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,719
Speaker 3: a really small window of opportunity and they have to

1009
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 3: be ready to go and take chances and take risks

1010
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:16,440
Speaker 3: when the opportunity presents itself, I know, you know, just

1011
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 3: even going back to like Widman Man, I mean, he

1012
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:20,720
Speaker 3: had a broken rib and then he got the call.

1013
00:48:20,960 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 3: You know, he took the Lessio Sakara fight. He was

1014
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:27,040
Speaker 3: always ready to fight at any time, and I think

1015
00:48:27,080 --> 00:48:30,160
Speaker 3: that should be one hundred percent. The mentality is that

1016
00:48:30,520 --> 00:48:32,279
Speaker 3: I'm not going to be here for twenty years. I'm

1017
00:48:32,280 --> 00:48:35,120
Speaker 3: going to be in hopefully ten years and that this

1018
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:37,200
Speaker 3: is my job and I'm going to be ready to fight.

1019
00:48:37,320 --> 00:48:40,520
Speaker 3: And you know, good luck with that mentality. But that's

1020
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 3: the way it should be. That's the way I agree.

1021
00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:46,080
Speaker 3: I agree with you one hundred percent. But you know,

1022
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:48,840
Speaker 3: a lot of these guys I think want the glory

1023
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:50,960
Speaker 3: without putting the work in a lot of times, and

1024
00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:52,200
Speaker 3: they think that's what happens.

1025
00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,040
Speaker 2: The other fight added to UFC three to h three,

1026
00:48:56,480 --> 00:48:59,400
Speaker 2: I shouldn't say added, but Jamal Hill out Anthony Smith

1027
00:48:59,440 --> 00:49:03,759
Speaker 2: in against rlos Olberg. So Anthony Smith trying to you know,

1028
00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:06,040
Speaker 2: keep a lock on the gate, so to speak.

1029
00:49:06,200 --> 00:49:09,600
Speaker 3: Right, Well, look, I think Anthony Smith's at a point

1030
00:49:09,600 --> 00:49:11,520
Speaker 3: in his life. Look, he's a fighter, He's got a

1031
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:15,399
Speaker 3: shitload of fights, and you know he's going to take

1032
00:49:15,400 --> 00:49:18,799
Speaker 3: these opportunities. He knows he's probably his career isn't going

1033
00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:21,520
Speaker 3: to go on for another five years, probably, right, He's

1034
00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:24,200
Speaker 3: getting up there. So I think he's doing the right thing.

1035
00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:26,399
Speaker 3: He's jumping in there. It's not a big deal to him.

1036
00:49:26,440 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 3: Like again, he's got the experience. I think that's a

1037
00:49:29,560 --> 00:49:33,520
Speaker 3: great fight for him. Also, I think, you know, definitely

1038
00:49:33,520 --> 00:49:36,479
Speaker 3: got a ton more experience than old Brook and I

1039
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:38,840
Speaker 3: think Oldberg, you know, that was a quick outing the

1040
00:49:38,920 --> 00:49:41,160
Speaker 3: last time. I still think he's got a ways to

1041
00:49:41,200 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 3: go to prove himself. This will be a good fight

1042
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:45,600
Speaker 3: for him, you know what I mean. But right, and

1043
00:49:45,640 --> 00:49:48,120
Speaker 3: I admire him for even taking the Jamal Hill fight.

1044
00:49:48,200 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 3: That would have been a good fight also, So yeah,

1045
00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 3: you know when these fights blow up, John, I honestly, look,

1046
00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 3: I'm glued to my TV every Saturday night when they

1047
00:49:56,480 --> 00:49:58,840
Speaker 3: put fights on. So I'm disappointed. You really want to

1048
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:02,120
Speaker 3: see some of these matchups, and you know, it's kind

1049
00:50:02,120 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 3: of a let down, But I'm glad they got guys

1050
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 3: that could fill in and at least, you know, cover

1051
00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:08,520
Speaker 3: the show a little bit.

1052
00:50:08,640 --> 00:50:11,319
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I do think you can argue, on the

1053
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:14,399
Speaker 2: strength of Ortega and Lopez that maybe the fight card

1054
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,000
Speaker 2: got one percent better. But I think most people would

1055
00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 2: argue that losing Connor McGregor and Jamal Hill is a

1056
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:25,080
Speaker 2: pretty big body blow and promotionally, as we've grown accustomed

1057
00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:27,279
Speaker 2: to seeing them do they responded about as well as

1058
00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:30,239
Speaker 2: they could. Kenny, I sort of say, tongue in cheek.

1059
00:50:30,320 --> 00:50:32,759
Speaker 2: You know, Anthony Smith the gatekeeper, right, but he does

1060
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:37,680
Speaker 2: still have championship aspirations, and you know, ready enough to

1061
00:50:37,760 --> 00:50:40,800
Speaker 2: make wade and fight Carlos Olberg, and you beat Carlos Alberg.

1062
00:50:41,120 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 2: You know, you beat Petrino and Carlos Alberg back to back.

1063
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:46,879
Speaker 2: Because you know he has been critical of a Lex

1064
00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:50,040
Speaker 2: Pedada on a microphone. Right, we know Paeda is fighting often.

1065
00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:52,640
Speaker 2: You know, stranger things have happened. I mean, I would

1066
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:55,680
Speaker 2: imagine Anthony Smith is a pretty bog underdog against Carlos Olberg,

1067
00:50:55,719 --> 00:50:57,440
Speaker 2: but you know, he beats him, you know, all of

1068
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:58,640
Speaker 2: a sudden, you maybe one went.

1069
00:50:58,560 --> 00:51:02,239
Speaker 6: Away, absolutely, And I think when you've been around as

1070
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:06,080
Speaker 6: long as Anthony Smith, you need to have championship aspirations.

1071
00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,919
Speaker 6: If you don't, that's where I would start to get

1072
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,600
Speaker 6: a little concerned. If I'm you know, on the periphery

1073
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:15,279
Speaker 6: of his team and all that stuff. And I think

1074
00:51:15,320 --> 00:51:18,640
Speaker 6: that Anthony Smith potentially could win that fight, you know,

1075
00:51:18,719 --> 00:51:21,680
Speaker 6: based on his all around skill set and of course

1076
00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:25,359
Speaker 6: his experience. I think he's a little bit short on

1077
00:51:26,120 --> 00:51:28,520
Speaker 6: athleticism here in this fight against Olberg, but he was

1078
00:51:28,560 --> 00:51:31,640
Speaker 6: against Patrina when he beat the living crap out of Patrino,

1079
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:35,040
Speaker 6: So you know, so I'm curious to how it goes

1080
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:36,920
Speaker 6: and I think it's kind of a smart play. It's like,

1081
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:41,319
Speaker 6: let's see how good Carlos Olberg is pretty early in

1082
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:44,640
Speaker 6: his career, and you know, I think he has made

1083
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,920
Speaker 6: some good decisions as to what fights he takes. And

1084
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:51,759
Speaker 6: I think that you know, Anthony's motivated. He sees a

1085
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:54,000
Speaker 6: great opportunity here, so I see it's a good thing.

1086
00:51:54,920 --> 00:51:56,000
Speaker 2: Certainly, go ahead.

1087
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 3: I let me just say one thing too. I want

1088
00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,840
Speaker 3: to throw this in. I forget about like Aana McGregor

1089
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:03,239
Speaker 3: and the other The guy I feel sorry for is

1090
00:52:03,280 --> 00:52:06,040
Speaker 3: Michael Chandler. This is the guy that put his life

1091
00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:08,160
Speaker 3: on hold. He did what they wanted. They did the

1092
00:52:08,200 --> 00:52:11,439
Speaker 3: show together, right, they built it up. Here's a guy,

1093
00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:13,719
Speaker 3: you know, he likes to fight. He'd fight any time,

1094
00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,600
Speaker 3: any place. I think he likes to stay active. He's

1095
00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 3: getting older. He's the guy. Really my heart goes out.

1096
00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,640
Speaker 3: There's Chandler, you know what I mean. That's the that's

1097
00:52:21,680 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 3: the tragedy of the story. And you know, you know

1098
00:52:24,760 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 3: mcgreg has got the money. He's gonna dictate what he

1099
00:52:27,040 --> 00:52:28,879
Speaker 3: wants to do and when he wants to do it.

1100
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:30,000
Speaker 3: It's that that's simple.

1101
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:32,040
Speaker 2: But I would say tragedy in the story look at

1102
00:52:32,080 --> 00:52:34,600
Speaker 2: the way the UFC takes care of Michael Chandler juxtaposed

1103
00:52:34,600 --> 00:52:36,640
Speaker 2: to how they take care of al Jamaine Sterling. Right,

1104
00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:39,000
Speaker 2: So it's like, you know, there's a lot we don't know, right.

1105
00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,840
Speaker 2: They probably taking care of Chandler here and there, different spots,

1106
00:52:41,840 --> 00:52:44,359
Speaker 2: sponsorships here there, There's just so much we don't know.

1107
00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:48,960
Speaker 2: But Carlos Albert minus five hundred, Anthony Smith's plus three eighty.

1108
00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:52,520
Speaker 2: But certainly Anthony Smith is gonna get paid nicely. And

1109
00:52:52,560 --> 00:52:55,239
Speaker 2: certainly I think your point about him being ready, he's

1110
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:56,520
Speaker 2: not taking it if he's not healthy.

1111
00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:58,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, Jason, I think you get to a point in

1112
00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 3: your career with these are the upper two needs you want.

1113
00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,239
Speaker 3: You're going to get extra money for jumping in there.

1114
00:53:03,800 --> 00:53:07,239
Speaker 3: And I think Anthony Smith's in the right headspace right

1115
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,799
Speaker 3: now where he's going to jump at that opportunity and

1116
00:53:09,800 --> 00:53:12,239
Speaker 3: pick up a nice payday. And I think he's a

1117
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:13,359
Speaker 3: live duog in that fight.

1118
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 2: So Ray, let's just say, and we all feel for

1119
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:20,880
Speaker 2: Michael Chandler, just a really good dude and does so

1120
00:53:21,000 --> 00:53:24,879
Speaker 2: many things the right way. I hate that we sort

1121
00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,040
Speaker 2: of are going to lose maybe one point five fights

1122
00:53:28,080 --> 00:53:30,560
Speaker 2: of his career because of this circumstance. But Ray, if

1123
00:53:30,560 --> 00:53:33,880
Speaker 2: this is your athlete, right, not that you know, you

1124
00:53:34,600 --> 00:53:37,760
Speaker 2: cross that managerial line, so to speak. But if Michael

1125
00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:40,360
Speaker 2: Chandler is going to get a million bucks to show

1126
00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:43,560
Speaker 2: to face Eddie Alvarez later this year, or you know,

1127
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:46,399
Speaker 2: pick your lightweight contender, maybe I should pick one that's

1128
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:49,600
Speaker 2: actually on the roster, right, or four million dollars to

1129
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:53,160
Speaker 2: face Connor McGregor. At what point would you tell Michael

1130
00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:54,520
Speaker 2: Chandler to move on?

1131
00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:55,359
Speaker 3: Right?

1132
00:53:55,400 --> 00:53:57,759
Speaker 2: I mean obviously a big part of that decision is

1133
00:53:57,880 --> 00:54:02,480
Speaker 2: monetarily rooted, Yes, But at what point do you move on?

1134
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,120
Speaker 2: You take two full years off? Would be November twenty

1135
00:54:05,160 --> 00:54:05,680
Speaker 2: twenty four.

1136
00:54:06,320 --> 00:54:09,640
Speaker 3: Well look good. Uh, the problem is you got I

1137
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 3: think you got to go with the guaranteed money. There's

1138
00:54:12,200 --> 00:54:15,720
Speaker 3: no guarantee this guy will ever even fight again. Somebody

1139
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:19,840
Speaker 3: knows right if you will, but not us. But I

1140
00:54:19,880 --> 00:54:22,880
Speaker 3: would go with the guaranteed money and stay active.

1141
00:54:23,200 --> 00:54:26,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, John and Kenny seem to know. They think they

1142
00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:29,280
Speaker 2: think McGregor's fighting again in twenty twenty four. I don't.

1143
00:54:29,880 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 3: Yeah twenty four.

1144
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:34,280
Speaker 2: Kenny and I are not in the breaking news business.

1145
00:54:34,320 --> 00:54:38,240
Speaker 2: We're not in the source, revelation business, just messing it. Yeah,

1146
00:54:39,320 --> 00:54:41,320
Speaker 2: sense all, R Ray, I have a few other items

1147
00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:45,759
Speaker 2: to get to with you and Pumi Tokuda factors prominently

1148
00:54:45,840 --> 00:54:48,879
Speaker 2: in this discussion. But i'd imagine there's been no more

1149
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 2: movement as far as your top flyweight getting signed by

1150
00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:52,520
Speaker 2: the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

1151
00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:55,399
Speaker 3: No, but again, I think you know, even looking at

1152
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:59,520
Speaker 3: what they have, three flyweight fights, one finish that could

1153
00:54:59,560 --> 00:55:02,520
Speaker 3: look really good the Japanese kid, but uh, come on,

1154
00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,080
Speaker 3: pull me's right in there, man. I mean, he's beat

1155
00:55:05,200 --> 00:55:08,319
Speaker 3: he's he's definitely beating those guys or he's given them

1156
00:55:08,360 --> 00:55:10,960
Speaker 3: hell one or the other. But I'm saying he's beating them,

1157
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,279
Speaker 3: and I don't know what the hell to hold up is.

1158
00:55:13,360 --> 00:55:14,719
Speaker 3: I'm not taking this kid.

1159
00:55:14,960 --> 00:55:18,640
Speaker 2: All right. So the last time I saw Mick Maynard, right, yes,

1160
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:25,640
Speaker 2: I was wearing my Ray long a Minute shirt. Right, No,

1161
00:55:25,719 --> 00:55:29,640
Speaker 2: it's ready, last time I was wearing it. And this

1162
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:33,840
Speaker 2: you see that, says Mick, right yeah, yeah, no he

1163
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:39,880
Speaker 2: asked me for one. This is not Forday. I'm out

1164
00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:44,160
Speaker 2: for a real long minute T shirt bringing it to

1165
00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:46,960
Speaker 2: Saudi Arabia and I'm going to say, here is your gift.

1166
00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:49,720
Speaker 2: And then I'm going to bring up Poomy shortly thereafter.

1167
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:53,440
Speaker 3: So no, listen. I always have a good laugh when

1168
00:55:53,480 --> 00:55:55,440
Speaker 3: I see Mick. I like, Mick, I really do I

1169
00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:58,200
Speaker 3: you know, it's just getting to the point where I think,

1170
00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:02,839
Speaker 3: did something personal happen like Dido did pully bang? One

1171
00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:06,440
Speaker 3: of your friend's mothers and girlfriends. Is said, I'm sorry,

1172
00:56:07,480 --> 00:56:09,560
Speaker 3: it doesn't It doesn't make sense, Kenny.

1173
00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,000
Speaker 5: You're not helping. You're not helping.

1174
00:56:14,440 --> 00:56:15,239
Speaker 3: I just want to know.

1175
00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,200
Speaker 2: He's got to be personal at this point.

1176
00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:21,759
Speaker 3: I'm wrong on that. I think it's I don't know,

1177
00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,359
Speaker 3: but look, mix a good guy. I think I think

1178
00:56:24,360 --> 00:56:26,959
Speaker 3: I have a good relationship with him, So I don't know.

1179
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 2: Well, he wants to wear your face on his chest,

1180
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:33,560
Speaker 2: so certainly I think that, uh, we would have a

1181
00:56:33,560 --> 00:56:36,440
Speaker 2: good relationship with him. So our producer is a dark

1182
00:56:36,520 --> 00:56:39,879
Speaker 2: boyd our producer. Cody Merrill wasn't liking me on that shot.

1183
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:41,560
Speaker 2: He's like, go back to the three shot. All right,

1184
00:56:41,600 --> 00:56:44,240
Speaker 2: I get it, you were in bed with Jason Anik.

1185
00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,560
Speaker 2: You know, Hey, what about your guy Jamal Hill. That's

1186
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 2: a pretty big setback for him on the injury. No, No,

1187
00:56:48,680 --> 00:56:51,120
Speaker 2: he's all right, all right, all right, I got to

1188
00:56:51,160 --> 00:56:53,640
Speaker 2: get to some uh some flyweights that are actually in

1189
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:55,080
Speaker 2: the UFC. Right, can we do that?

1190
00:56:55,160 --> 00:56:56,480
Speaker 3: Please? Let's do it.

1191
00:56:57,000 --> 00:57:01,640
Speaker 2: Tatsuro Tyra at his leg bending best this weekend, Kenny,

1192
00:57:01,680 --> 00:57:04,480
Speaker 2: I'd like to lead with you on this, right. I mean,

1193
00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:07,680
Speaker 2: this is some nasty prick type stuff here. This guy's

1194
00:57:07,719 --> 00:57:11,440
Speaker 2: a real problem. It's Tatsuro Tyra over Alex Perez. Tko

1195
00:57:11,560 --> 00:57:13,560
Speaker 2: knee injury comes at two fifty nine to a round

1196
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:19,200
Speaker 2: two Tyra rightfully bonused for just an outstanding performance. I

1197
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:21,760
Speaker 2: thought Alex Perez looked fantastic in round one. So did

1198
00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:24,400
Speaker 2: his chief corner Colin Oyama. His striking was great, but

1199
00:57:25,120 --> 00:57:28,240
Speaker 2: Tyra really intriguing contender worth keeping an eye on, Kenny,

1200
00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:29,040
Speaker 2: your thoughts on him?

1201
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think Perez was a little tight to start.

1202
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:34,920
Speaker 6: He seemed a little bit maybe nervous or whatever, you know,

1203
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,200
Speaker 6: And then he started to loosen up a little bit

1204
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:41,240
Speaker 6: in the second round, and then his knee started to

1205
00:57:41,240 --> 00:57:46,000
Speaker 6: loosen up after that nasty move that Tyra put on him.

1206
00:57:46,520 --> 00:57:49,520
Speaker 6: He had the body triangle, he had his leg tucked

1207
00:57:49,600 --> 00:57:51,920
Speaker 6: in to the back of the knee, kind of the

1208
00:57:51,960 --> 00:57:55,000
Speaker 6: fulcrum of the knee there, and he was trying to

1209
00:57:55,040 --> 00:57:57,040
Speaker 6: do it. As soon as he took the back you

1210
00:57:57,040 --> 00:57:59,640
Speaker 6: could see him kind of rock his weight back to

1211
00:57:59,640 --> 00:58:02,840
Speaker 6: try to to you know, get that lever, going to

1212
00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,120
Speaker 6: try to get Perez to go backwards. Perez was fighting

1213
00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:08,400
Speaker 6: a little bit, and his weight went off at a

1214
00:58:08,400 --> 00:58:11,280
Speaker 6: certain angle and it looked like a similar injury that

1215
00:58:11,360 --> 00:58:12,360
Speaker 6: I had at one point.

1216
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,160
Speaker 5: It looked like maybe his MCL.

1217
00:58:13,800 --> 00:58:16,840
Speaker 6: Because it was kind of like the either the inside

1218
00:58:16,880 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 6: or outside of the knee, I couldn't quite tell, but

1219
00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:21,640
Speaker 6: it looked like that just gave out on him when

1220
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:23,760
Speaker 6: the weight was on that side he was resisting it

1221
00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:27,320
Speaker 6: destroyed his knee or certainly popped his knee, did something

1222
00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:29,959
Speaker 6: to it. And then as soon as he hit the ground,

1223
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:31,760
Speaker 6: or even before he hit the ground, you could see

1224
00:58:31,880 --> 00:58:34,720
Speaker 6: Perez wincing immediately, and that was that.

1225
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 5: Tyra is an absolute killer.

1226
00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,520
Speaker 6: Again, a reminder for all those guys out there, don't

1227
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 6: judge a book by its cover.

1228
00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:42,840
Speaker 2: You know, you see this.

1229
00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:46,120
Speaker 6: He looks like he's like fourteen fifteen years old, Yeah,

1230
00:58:46,160 --> 00:58:50,120
Speaker 6: and he is an assassin. From his striking to his grappling,

1231
00:58:50,360 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 6: he commits to every knows how to put it all together,

1232
00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:57,760
Speaker 6: and he just seemed like he was moving at a

1233
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:01,439
Speaker 6: different speeds the speed that Perez. He seemed a little

1234
00:59:01,440 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 6: bit more confident with what he was doing, how he

1235
00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:08,160
Speaker 6: was packaging his moves. And yeah, that back take was

1236
00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:13,520
Speaker 6: absolutely beautiful and there was nothing illegal but about.

1237
00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:13,920
Speaker 2: What he did.

1238
00:59:14,800 --> 00:59:16,960
Speaker 6: He just he put his foot on the right spot

1239
00:59:17,040 --> 00:59:19,479
Speaker 6: at the right time, rocked his weight at the right time,

1240
00:59:19,800 --> 00:59:22,880
Speaker 6: and unfortunately for Perez, it messed up his knee.

1241
00:59:25,000 --> 00:59:25,160
Speaker 3: Ray.

1242
00:59:25,200 --> 00:59:26,600
Speaker 2: How about that main event your thoughts?

1243
00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:30,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought the kid looked really, really good, especially

1244
00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:35,320
Speaker 3: for a young kid, you know. Yeah, like that back

1245
00:59:35,360 --> 00:59:38,000
Speaker 3: take was really quick off the takedown too. I mean

1246
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:41,000
Speaker 3: I thought he looked smooth, He looked good standing up

1247
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:43,200
Speaker 3: and when he had his back ten he stayed up.

1248
00:59:43,200 --> 00:59:48,200
Speaker 3: He almost went vertical, like like the core strength he

1249
00:59:48,240 --> 00:59:50,480
Speaker 3: had to have to do that. Think about that. That

1250
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:52,760
Speaker 3: was the weirdest thing I ever saw. So I don't

1251
00:59:52,760 --> 00:59:54,680
Speaker 3: know if that's what put the pressure in the right

1252
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,600
Speaker 3: place or made him a little more something, But I've

1253
00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:01,360
Speaker 3: never seen anybody like you could see like when you

1254
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:04,400
Speaker 3: have a guy's back, everything's going down. He went backwards.

1255
01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:08,160
Speaker 5: Yep, Andy Perez did not expect that, And I.

1256
01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,160
Speaker 3: Think I've never seen it before. I've never seen anybody

1257
01:00:11,200 --> 01:00:14,880
Speaker 3: do that before. Again, it almost was like it just

1258
01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:17,600
Speaker 3: looked like an abdominal exercise, you know what I mean, Like, well,

1259
01:00:17,640 --> 01:00:20,000
Speaker 3: your core strength had to be super strong for that.

1260
01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:22,920
Speaker 3: But I look for the how how old he is?

1261
01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 3: I thought the kid looked smooth. I think Perez is

1262
01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:27,880
Speaker 3: a tough kid. I think that was a great test

1263
01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:31,280
Speaker 3: for him. And uh, you know, especially in that division,

1264
01:00:31,280 --> 01:00:33,600
Speaker 3: it looks like they're looking for people. So I'd love

1265
01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:35,400
Speaker 3: to see that fight with him in Pantosia.

1266
01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:37,480
Speaker 2: We are going to get into all of that. You

1267
01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:40,400
Speaker 2: see that Jay Raymond does not skip UFC fight nights.

1268
01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:42,800
Speaker 2: I mean, what if Missus Longo says, hey, ray can

1269
01:00:42,840 --> 01:00:46,440
Speaker 2: we skip UFC fight night Perez versus Tyra. Your answer

1270
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:48,280
Speaker 2: is what, Well.

1271
01:00:48,800 --> 01:00:52,560
Speaker 3: I'm going to say she knows better than than to

1272
01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:54,880
Speaker 3: do that. But if I was going to miss a

1273
01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:57,880
Speaker 3: fight night, that would have been a fight night I missed.

1274
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:00,360
Speaker 3: So by the time I got to the main event,

1275
01:01:00,400 --> 01:01:02,840
Speaker 3: I think I was drifting a little bit. But uh,

1276
01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,840
Speaker 3: I thought it was I thought there was some decent fights,

1277
01:01:05,840 --> 01:01:07,680
Speaker 3: but me and that was that was a little rough.

1278
01:01:08,480 --> 01:01:12,040
Speaker 2: Say, honey, we got ten other Saturday nights all year,

1279
01:01:12,320 --> 01:01:16,280
Speaker 2: there's only forty two UFC events. You know, you're like

1280
01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:20,520
Speaker 2: the anti Mark Henry. We love it a yeah, I

1281
01:01:20,680 --> 01:01:23,640
Speaker 2: like that shit. Alright, So Cody has populated the chat

1282
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 2: with the flyweight rankings. Yeah, I'm a complete lunatic. Complete

1283
01:01:26,760 --> 01:01:30,720
Speaker 2: lunatic's perpetually misunderstood by a lot of the UFC audience. Jay,

1284
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:32,480
Speaker 2: do you have the pole question and the result and

1285
01:01:32,560 --> 01:01:35,760
Speaker 2: maybe yeah, the pole cannot where we left out Amir Albosi?

1286
01:01:35,880 --> 01:01:39,600
Speaker 2: That pole whoops a daisy? Oh he's injured, right, I

1287
01:01:39,720 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 2: forgot man like you get four slots and I forgot

1288
01:01:42,800 --> 01:01:45,600
Speaker 2: a mere al Bosi who's recovering from a neck injury. Okay,

1289
01:01:45,720 --> 01:01:48,479
Speaker 2: Anni Florian pod pole question. We have two of these.

1290
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:51,920
Speaker 2: Later we will get you the results on your predictions

1291
01:01:51,920 --> 01:01:54,800
Speaker 2: for Robert Whitaker and Nick Ramala Scarral. But could you

1292
01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:57,720
Speaker 2: read the pole question on the flyways against whom should

1293
01:01:57,720 --> 01:02:02,280
Speaker 2: Alessandre Pantosia next defend his YOUFC flyweight title, Steve Urseg

1294
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:06,920
Speaker 2: Tatsuro Tyra MOKAIEV slash Cop winner which is July twenty seventh,

1295
01:02:07,080 --> 01:02:10,520
Speaker 2: or Brandon Royval slash other and the winner by a

1296
01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,040
Speaker 2: long margin. Okaiev Cop winner which is July twenty seven

1297
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,480
Speaker 2: fifty seven percent, followed by Tyra twenty one percent, Erseg

1298
01:02:16,520 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 2: sixteen percent, Brandon Royval slash of what the fuck is

1299
01:02:19,920 --> 01:02:22,440
Speaker 2: brit Do you have like mothers in your mouth? Or

1300
01:02:22,600 --> 01:02:25,520
Speaker 2: no diction? Did you not have your coffee? Like I

1301
01:02:25,520 --> 01:02:28,160
Speaker 2: can barely understand you. You're right fucking here. I should

1302
01:02:28,200 --> 01:02:30,240
Speaker 2: read that tweet about the guy. That's a great tweet

1303
01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:33,480
Speaker 2: talking shit about me. Go ahead, So, Ray, part of

1304
01:02:33,480 --> 01:02:38,000
Speaker 2: the reason why I am Jones into see Pumi Nakuda

1305
01:02:38,080 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 2: in the UFC is because, like I thought, the fan

1306
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 2: base would be of an appetitive nature to watch Pantosia

1307
01:02:46,480 --> 01:02:49,400
Speaker 2: Erseg again in Perth at UFC three oh five, and

1308
01:02:49,480 --> 01:02:51,320
Speaker 2: yet a lot of them don't want to see that

1309
01:02:51,360 --> 01:02:53,200
Speaker 2: rematch right now. I thought there was an argument that

1310
01:02:53,200 --> 01:02:55,880
Speaker 2: Steve Verseg won that first fight. So Kenny and Ray,

1311
01:02:55,880 --> 01:02:57,280
Speaker 2: I want to get your thoughts on this, and if

1312
01:02:57,320 --> 01:02:59,480
Speaker 2: you have anything, Jay, we'll take your thoughts as well

1313
01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 2: on the back end of the experts. But like, what

1314
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:06,360
Speaker 2: do you do at Flyway with Pantosia? Because Ray, he's

1315
01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:08,160
Speaker 2: not a guy who's gonna sit on the throne. He

1316
01:03:08,280 --> 01:03:11,280
Speaker 2: is going to defend. But at least right now. Unless

1317
01:03:11,320 --> 01:03:14,360
Speaker 2: I'm missing something, there is not an obvious number one content.

1318
01:03:15,880 --> 01:03:17,880
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, biddy looking at it now?

1319
01:03:18,880 --> 01:03:20,000
Speaker 2: Who's looking at the chat?

1320
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:26,120
Speaker 3: Is number sixteen? Pumi Nakuda can we yah? I don't

1321
01:03:26,120 --> 01:03:30,240
Speaker 3: know who's so.

1322
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:34,000
Speaker 2: Brandon roy Vall is the number one contender, coming off

1323
01:03:34,040 --> 01:03:36,000
Speaker 2: a win over Brandon Moreno, but a lot of people

1324
01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,840
Speaker 2: don't want to see him fight Pantoja a third time

1325
01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:41,400
Speaker 2: because he has lost to him twice recently. Right, Moreno

1326
01:03:41,760 --> 01:03:43,520
Speaker 2: is taking some time off a mere al Bosi, the

1327
01:03:43,600 --> 01:03:46,080
Speaker 2: number three rank contender, has the extended winning streak, but

1328
01:03:46,160 --> 01:03:48,880
Speaker 2: he's dealing with a neck injury. Kai Kata France I

1329
01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:50,720
Speaker 2: believe is coming off a loss and an injury. If

1330
01:03:50,760 --> 01:03:53,760
Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken. Alex Perez just relinquished his number five

1331
01:03:53,840 --> 01:03:57,160
Speaker 2: ranking to Tatsuro Tyra and Ray. A lot of people

1332
01:03:57,160 --> 01:04:00,240
Speaker 2: feel like Tyra could be the guy. Steve Versak could

1333
01:04:00,280 --> 01:04:03,040
Speaker 2: be the guy. Manel Cop hasn't proven to be able

1334
01:04:03,040 --> 01:04:04,800
Speaker 2: to make the weight, but if he could make weight

1335
01:04:04,840 --> 01:04:07,400
Speaker 2: and beat Mohammed Mokai of July twenty seventh, maybe you

1336
01:04:07,480 --> 01:04:11,200
Speaker 2: go in that direction. But I think that Pantosa is

1337
01:04:11,240 --> 01:04:13,120
Speaker 2: gonna want to fight here in the not too distant future,

1338
01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:15,160
Speaker 2: So maybe the calendar wouldn't aligned for the Machaia of

1339
01:04:15,240 --> 01:04:19,440
Speaker 2: COP winner Kenny while ray Fence sits in stalls. What

1340
01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:21,080
Speaker 2: is your best guess as to what they do with

1341
01:04:21,160 --> 01:04:22,560
Speaker 2: Pantosia Gosh, you.

1342
01:04:22,560 --> 01:04:25,800
Speaker 6: Know, I think as much as he wants to probably

1343
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:28,000
Speaker 6: stay busy, and I agree with you, I think he's

1344
01:04:28,040 --> 01:04:31,040
Speaker 6: probably gonna have to wait because I think the Mokaya

1345
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:34,120
Speaker 6: of Cop fight makes the most amount of sense. You

1346
01:04:34,160 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 6: want a fresh contender, you want to fight that kind

1347
01:04:37,680 --> 01:04:40,120
Speaker 6: of makes sense. That's gonna be an interesting challenge for

1348
01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:43,560
Speaker 6: people guys that have stayed relatively busy. I agree with

1349
01:04:43,640 --> 01:04:46,040
Speaker 6: you on the Cop thing, especially if I'm the UFC

1350
01:04:46,160 --> 01:04:47,800
Speaker 6: and I'm thinking about, is this a guy that we

1351
01:04:47,800 --> 01:04:51,280
Speaker 6: can rely on to make the weight consistently? That's going

1352
01:04:51,360 --> 01:04:53,240
Speaker 6: to be a question mark. But if you can't do

1353
01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,680
Speaker 6: it here, then you just lost your shot, whether you

1354
01:04:56,720 --> 01:04:59,600
Speaker 6: win dominantly or not. So this is a huge one

1355
01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:01,280
Speaker 6: for Cop. I think he's got to make the weight.

1356
01:05:01,320 --> 01:05:05,000
Speaker 6: For Mokayev, of course, the same goes. I think that's

1357
01:05:05,040 --> 01:05:07,760
Speaker 6: the fight. Just from a stylistic standpoint. Both those guys

1358
01:05:07,760 --> 01:05:10,720
Speaker 6: are very interesting. They're new, fresh names, and I think

1359
01:05:10,720 --> 01:05:12,480
Speaker 6: that's what Pantosian needs.

1360
01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:15,880
Speaker 3: Man, I'd like the tyrof fight. To be honest with you,

1361
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:18,800
Speaker 3: I like the whole Japanese thing, you know, the first

1362
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:24,400
Speaker 3: Japanese champion or whatever, especially in the flyweight division. He

1363
01:05:24,520 --> 01:05:30,080
Speaker 3: said that, but isn't I thought, Uh, who was Leo Machida? Yeah,

1364
01:05:30,600 --> 01:05:32,960
Speaker 3: they didn't count him as was he Brazilian?

1365
01:05:33,000 --> 01:05:35,880
Speaker 5: Well, he's Brazilian, yes, but he's his dad.

1366
01:05:35,800 --> 01:05:39,240
Speaker 3: Was right, Yeah, okay, But I mean I like the tyrofight.

1367
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:41,600
Speaker 3: I think they could build that up really nicely, and

1368
01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:44,120
Speaker 3: I see nothing wrong with that. I think that kid

1369
01:05:44,160 --> 01:05:47,160
Speaker 3: looks like he's he's definitely good enough to be in there.

1370
01:05:47,200 --> 01:05:49,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I think Gersek did great. I agree with you, John,

1371
01:05:49,880 --> 01:05:51,920
Speaker 3: you could have made a case from winning. But the

1372
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,920
Speaker 3: inexperience I think got him. You know, he didn't have

1373
01:05:54,960 --> 01:05:57,840
Speaker 3: the flight time, and I think that was the biggest

1374
01:05:57,840 --> 01:06:00,840
Speaker 3: issue in the fight. I think's going to he needs

1375
01:06:00,840 --> 01:06:03,080
Speaker 3: a couple of more fights and he's going to be really,

1376
01:06:03,120 --> 01:06:06,560
Speaker 3: really good. Yea, But for right now, I would take

1377
01:06:06,600 --> 01:06:09,320
Speaker 3: a chef. That guy wants to stay busy. Tyra looks

1378
01:06:09,320 --> 01:06:11,760
Speaker 3: like he'll bounce right back in there quickly. I would

1379
01:06:11,800 --> 01:06:14,800
Speaker 3: do that fight and then uh, you know the two

1380
01:06:14,840 --> 01:06:17,040
Speaker 3: winners fight, you know from the Cop fight and the

1381
01:06:17,120 --> 01:06:20,280
Speaker 3: Tyra fight, they fight next, they get the next shot.

1382
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:23,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would probably do Ersag and Roy Vall underneath

1383
01:06:23,440 --> 01:06:26,760
Speaker 2: a Pantosia title defense. And Jay you're here, you know,

1384
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,400
Speaker 2: maybe your wheels could cern when we bring up Lioto

1385
01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:31,720
Speaker 2: Machida and think, oh, maybe I'll look up like where

1386
01:06:31,760 --> 01:06:34,600
Speaker 2: he was born or if he has like Japanese citizenship.

1387
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:36,680
Speaker 2: But you just fucking sit there, you know why, you

1388
01:06:36,680 --> 01:06:39,400
Speaker 2: know what, First of all, I M'm not even address that.

1389
01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:42,560
Speaker 2: If you were listening to Kenny Kenny just told everybody,

1390
01:06:42,640 --> 01:06:43,840
Speaker 2: So you want me to look it up? You think

1391
01:06:43,880 --> 01:06:46,600
Speaker 2: Ken Kenny told people, But I didn't get the facts.

1392
01:06:46,640 --> 01:06:49,760
Speaker 2: So I believe Leoto Machida was born in Brazil, but

1393
01:06:49,800 --> 01:06:53,400
Speaker 2: I believe he has Japanese citizenship. Topsu wrote, Tyro would

1394
01:06:53,440 --> 01:06:56,320
Speaker 2: be the first Japanese born champion, not onlike Brandon Moreno,

1395
01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:00,200
Speaker 2: Kane Blaskiz right, Kine American born, right?

1396
01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:00,720
Speaker 3: I got you?

1397
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:04,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's all right, Like I'm not doing that. I'm

1398
01:07:04,240 --> 01:07:09,720
Speaker 2: not looking. I'm gonna look it up. Yeah, man on

01:07:18,240 --> 01:07:23,400
Speaker 2: I just get some tape because a tennis elbow or something. Right,

01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:24,640
Speaker 2: They masturbation.

1403
01:07:26,640 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 3: The holding pads is brutal.

1404
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:32,280
Speaker 2: So all right, I have a few other things in

1405
01:07:32,320 --> 01:07:34,880
Speaker 2: my notes to get to uh, ray, it seems like

Speaker 2: we have four more minutes of your time.

1407
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:39,280

1414
01:07:53,720 --> 01:08:02,320
Speaker 2: Huh yeah, right, all right? So oh, I'm not sure

1415
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,480
Speaker 2: if this is official. I have not gotten any sort

1416
01:08:04,480 --> 01:08:06,320
Speaker 2: of internal email, but it looks like it's going to

1417
01:08:06,360 --> 01:08:09,959
Speaker 2: be Drikus Dupless and Israel Adessanya UFC three h five

1418
01:08:10,400 --> 01:08:14,760
Speaker 2: in Perth, August seventeenth, Raymond, I'm curious what your appetite

1419
01:08:14,800 --> 01:08:18,120
Speaker 2: is for that particular grudge match as the next title

1420
01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:21,160
Speaker 2: defense for or first title defense, I should say for

1421
01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:25,200
Speaker 2: the newly minted champion, Dricus DUPLESSI guy, but I.

1422
01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:27,080
Speaker 3: Love it, man. I think that's great. They get that

1423
01:08:27,240 --> 01:08:30,439
Speaker 3: rivalry going. I'd love to see it, and I think

1424
01:08:30,520 --> 01:08:31,719
Speaker 3: that's going to be a great fight.

1425
01:08:33,160 --> 01:08:35,160
Speaker 2: Kenny, anything on that before we let Raymond go.

1426
01:08:36,000 --> 01:08:38,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean someone asked, Hey, you know, I can't

1427
01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:42,120
Speaker 6: believe they're given is he this shot? It's like, come on, man,

1428
01:08:42,200 --> 01:08:44,799
Speaker 6: he's the biggest name in the division, he's a former champion,

1429
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,960
Speaker 6: he defended the belt a ton of times. Of course

1430
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,880
Speaker 6: they're going to give him this shot. You know, they're

1431
01:08:48,960 --> 01:08:51,800
Speaker 6: questioning why they didn't give Strickland the immediate remat YadA. Yeah,

1432
01:08:52,200 --> 01:08:53,800
Speaker 6: I mean that that's the fight that we're going to make.

1433
01:08:53,840 --> 01:08:55,840
Speaker 6: I think it's the fight they should make. That's the

1434
01:08:55,840 --> 01:08:59,000
Speaker 6: big money fight. I'm certainly excited to see that. I

1435
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:02,040
Speaker 6: think Strickland will get a shot later on against the

1436
01:09:02,080 --> 01:09:05,920
Speaker 6: winner of that fight. The fact that it's gonna happen

1437
01:09:05,960 --> 01:09:08,559
Speaker 6: in Australia is the right move as well. It's almost

1438
01:09:08,600 --> 01:09:10,200
Speaker 6: like the UFC has been doing this a long time,

1439
01:09:10,240 --> 01:09:12,479
Speaker 6: so yeah, no, this is this is the this is

1440
01:09:12,520 --> 01:09:16,519
Speaker 6: the one to make. I'm really excited about it and yeah,

1441
01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:18,960
Speaker 6: just just curious to see how it's all going to

1442
01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:19,400
Speaker 6: play out.

1443
01:09:19,400 --> 01:09:23,479
Speaker 2: Man. So, ray what's your travel schedule look like over

1444
01:09:23,520 --> 01:09:26,800

1445
01:09:26,880 --> 01:09:29,160
Speaker 2: is coming back. Did you have anybody compete this past weekend?

1446
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:36,760

01:09:55,680 --> 01:09:57,960

01:09:58,080 --> 01:09:59,920

Speaker 2: Yeah.

Speaker 3: Before I forget to, please shout out big shout out

1460
01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 3: to Chris Weidman got inducted into the hospital Hall of Famous.

1461
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:28,519
Speaker 2: Pay Okay, Chris, sorry yet wrong, but hit the applause.

1462
01:10:28,680 --> 01:10:32,720
Speaker 3: Yeah that set up. He's got Kenny.

1463
01:10:32,120 --> 01:10:36,559
Speaker 2: Okay, Chris, Wow, Sorry I hit the asker and stiff

1464
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,240
Speaker 2: as a board button. I thought it's at applause. It

1465
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:38,640
Speaker 2: set out.

1466
01:10:41,360 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 3: Hey, listen before I get out of here, one more,

1467
01:10:44,160 --> 01:10:46,840
Speaker 3: one more case in points for puting the Cody getting

1468
01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:49,360
Speaker 3: in there. I think you got a division where guys

1469
01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:52,800
Speaker 3: afford each other fifteen times. Get some new blood in there.

1470
01:10:53,320 --> 01:10:55,519
Speaker 3: That's the problem with Roy Valley. I mean, who wants

1471
01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,160
Speaker 3: to see that fight again? And Roy VAL's a super

1472
01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:00,600
Speaker 3: talented exactly, you know what I mean. But it just

1473
01:11:00,640 --> 01:11:03,759
Speaker 3: comes to the point where I think that division always

1474
01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,519
Speaker 3: had problem gaining eyeballs. Anyway, Now you want to put

1475
01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:10,080
Speaker 3: you know, fights with guys have each other twenty times

1476
01:11:10,400 --> 01:11:13,040
Speaker 3: new blood, new blood. Start with pullm to go throw

1477
01:11:13,080 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 3: him in there, you know, Let's see what happens.

1478
01:11:15,840 --> 01:11:18,000
Speaker 2: John. Can we use that T shirt as leverage?

1479
01:11:18,240 --> 01:11:20,479
Speaker 6: Like, hey, listen, I only give you the T shirt

1480
01:11:20,560 --> 01:11:22,040
Speaker 6: unless Pumi's in the UFC.

1481
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:27,080
Speaker 2: No, it's very perplexing, right I oftentimes, Well, I never

1482
01:11:27,200 --> 01:11:30,639
Speaker 2: really crossed that line. I think maybe once or twice

1483
01:11:30,680 --> 01:11:33,240
Speaker 2: I've gone to Sean Shelby about a fighter, and never

1484
01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:36,360
Speaker 2: once have I gone to Mick. But yeah, I think

1485
01:11:36,840 --> 01:11:39,760
Speaker 2: I think acquiring some intel for the sake of the

1486
01:11:39,800 --> 01:11:42,760
Speaker 2: Anican Floring podcast audience in Saudi Arabia makes some sense.

1487
01:11:42,800 --> 01:11:45,559
Speaker 2: And yeah, we got merchandise to see if we could

1488
01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:47,920
Speaker 2: soften them up a little bit. But again, he asked

1489
01:11:47,960 --> 01:11:50,040
Speaker 2: for this T shirt in Rio, saw me wearing it,

1490
01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:52,160
Speaker 2: ask for the shirt, So he must be a Ray

1491
01:11:52,200 --> 01:11:56,200
Speaker 2: Long Go fan, just maybe not a poomy Nakudah fan

1492
01:11:56,560 --> 01:11:58,439
Speaker 2: at these has yet it happened.

1493
01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:01,240
Speaker 3: I think it's any Kenny. I agree with you. I

1494
01:12:01,280 --> 01:12:03,759
Speaker 3: think all for this last fight. Look, I like again,

1495
01:12:03,800 --> 01:12:06,479
Speaker 3: I've always liked Mixed since I first met him. He's always,

1496
01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:09,360
Speaker 3: you know, been a class act. So I think you'll

1497
01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:12,320
Speaker 3: he's gonna, you know, do what to do the right

1498
01:12:12,360 --> 01:12:16,120
Speaker 3: thing either way, Man, you've got to compartmentalized things. I

1499
01:12:16,160 --> 01:12:19,280
Speaker 3: know it's a business, and you know it's not my business.

1500
01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:21,040
Speaker 3: My business is to get put me in there. His

1501
01:12:21,120 --> 01:12:24,720
Speaker 3: businesses right thing for the company. So I respect all

1502
01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:28,080
Speaker 3: angles of that and I would never have a blur

1503
01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:29,720
Speaker 3: those lines together.

1504
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:31,280
Speaker 2: Right all right, Well, if you want to become an

1505
01:12:31,400 --> 01:12:35,599
Speaker 2: MMA fighter, head down. The log goes MMA today, Garden City,

1517
01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:13,400
Speaker 2: Who do you like? Ray?

1518
01:13:14,040 --> 01:13:15,479
Speaker 3: I'm going with h Whittaker.

1519
01:13:16,520 --> 01:13:18,240
Speaker 2: All right, you betting on the fighter now?

1520
01:13:18,720 --> 01:13:20,800
Speaker 3: No? Okay, who's the favorite in that fight?

1521
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:24,200
Speaker 2: Whittaker's light favorite. He was a big underdog against Chimayav.

1522
01:13:23,720 --> 01:13:28,240
Speaker 3: Though I would have against Jamoya have too.

1523
01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,400
Speaker 2: Yeah plus two hundred or so. Yeah.

1524
01:13:30,400 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 3: I just don't think he's got the guest tank and

1525
01:13:32,600 --> 01:13:36,599
Speaker 3: is just looking good. He's been good lately, so all good.

1526
01:13:36,920 --> 01:13:40,240
Speaker 2: Yes, we're gonna looking good. Look at fucking you right then?

1527
01:13:40,280 --> 01:13:44,080
Speaker 2: They look great, unbelievable, All right, by Ray, I'm mating

1528
01:13:44,120 --> 01:13:49,439
Speaker 2: in reverse, guys, Benjamin Button, Benny Button, sign and take

1529
01:13:49,439 --> 01:13:53,040
Speaker 2: Ita Ry long go minute. Every week here on the

1530
01:13:53,080 --> 01:13:56,000
Speaker 2: Annik and Florian Podcast. He doesn't like when I don't

1531
01:13:56,040 --> 01:13:59,120
Speaker 2: ask him a question. Sometimes when I work with Michael Bisping,

1532
01:13:59,160 --> 01:14:00,600
Speaker 2: he'll ask me, you know, what are you going to

1533
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:02,720
Speaker 2: ask me? And it's like, dude, I don't have a teleprompter.

1534
01:14:02,800 --> 01:14:05,200
Speaker 2: I don't really know. Once the lights come on, you

1535
01:14:05,240 --> 01:14:08,120
Speaker 2: know what exactly I'm going to turn and say, uh,

1536
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,679
Speaker 2: but I'll probably be like Big Night coming up in Nashville.

1537
01:14:10,720 --> 01:14:14,960
Speaker 2: H Mike. Right, So did you find that information on

1538
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:19,280
Speaker 2: Theodo Machidah? Yeah? Where he was born? Yeah, yeah, in Brazil?

1539
01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:20,080
Speaker 5: All right?

1540
01:14:20,280 --> 01:14:24,679
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kenny inferred, you confirmed. It's not that big a deal.

1541
01:14:24,720 --> 01:14:28,360
Speaker 2: It's just thinking from a producer stamps Jason. He doesn't

1542
01:14:28,360 --> 01:14:32,400
Speaker 2: trust me exactly. Yeah, Yeah, it's okay fine. Cody wrote

1543
01:14:32,439 --> 01:14:35,200
Speaker 2: that Steve Urseeg is on the Australia card UFC three

1544
01:14:35,320 --> 01:14:37,920
Speaker 2: oh five. Is that accurate? I have not seen that.

1545
01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:41,360
Speaker 2: That Dana leak on that I was like behind on

1546
01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:43,920
Speaker 2: that board. You know, there was an image when he

1547
01:14:44,000 --> 01:14:46,600
Speaker 2: released I guess the three oh three replacements there was

1548
01:14:46,640 --> 01:14:51,280
Speaker 2: some imagery behind him that someone zoomed in on. I guess. Yeah.

1549
01:14:51,320 --> 01:14:54,800
Speaker 2: So it really is interesting in terms of Perth. Right,

1550
01:14:55,280 --> 01:14:57,960
Speaker 2: and I think the Israel lot of Sonia drinks due

1551
01:14:57,960 --> 01:15:02,560
Speaker 2: plus C fight makes some sense. And DDP though is

1552
01:15:02,600 --> 01:15:05,400
Speaker 2: another champion right that when we talk about these guys,

1553
01:15:05,439 --> 01:15:08,599
Speaker 2: like could he make the weight and expedite his calendar

1554
01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:11,400
Speaker 2: for June twenty ninth, UFC three ZHO three probably not

1555
01:15:11,720 --> 01:15:13,920
Speaker 2: right even if you look at him and Alex Paedada

1556
01:15:13,920 --> 01:15:16,639
Speaker 2: and think man Podata is huge, right d D Pek,

1557
01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:18,400
Speaker 2: you know, takes a while for him to get down

1558
01:15:18,479 --> 01:15:20,320
Speaker 2: eighty five. I think they have to make that fight.

1559
01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:23,000
Speaker 2: I think that fight makes sense. I think it makes

1560
01:15:22,840 --> 01:15:25,040
Speaker 2: a ton of sense for Sean Strickland to wait and

1561
01:15:25,080 --> 01:15:28,599
Speaker 2: not fight like a rematch against Brendan Allen. You know.

1562
01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:32,680
Speaker 2: But does Pantosia end up in Perth? You know? And

1563
01:15:32,760 --> 01:15:36,000
Speaker 2: if he does, like, why would he not fight Steve Versa? Kenny? Like,

1564
01:15:36,040 --> 01:15:39,120
Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know, Like I I'm tempted to

1565
01:15:39,120 --> 01:15:41,519
Speaker 2: rewatch that fight, Like after the program today, I guess

1566
01:15:41,520 --> 01:15:43,720
Speaker 2: I was just surprised that, you know, and I know

1567
01:15:43,760 --> 01:15:45,800
Speaker 2: it's maybe a small sample size, it's just an anti

1568
01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:48,720
Speaker 2: Florian podcast poll question. But why like sixty percent of

1569
01:15:48,720 --> 01:15:51,720
Speaker 2: the fan base Kenny is aligned with you wanting to

1570
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:55,360
Speaker 2: see I understand if Mokayae have emerges undefeated twenty four

1571
01:15:55,439 --> 01:15:58,120
Speaker 2: years of age. Right, But you know, Manel cop is

1572
01:15:58,120 --> 01:16:01,120
Speaker 2: an absolute stud but got to make the weight twice

1573
01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:03,800
Speaker 2: in succession, you know, easier said than done. I don't know.

1574
01:16:03,880 --> 01:16:06,040
Speaker 2: To me, it's like, why don't you do Pantosa Ersagan Perf,

1575
01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:07,759
Speaker 2: Like what am I missing? I'm missing something?

1576
01:16:08,040 --> 01:16:10,800
Speaker 6: I think it's a great fight. You know, if I'm

1577
01:16:10,840 --> 01:16:13,519
Speaker 6: onth six team, I said, hey, let's let's rebuild a

1578
01:16:13,520 --> 01:16:15,720
Speaker 6: little bit, Let's get another fight in, let's get some

1579
01:16:15,760 --> 01:16:19,760
Speaker 6: more experience, all that stuff, YadA, YadA, YadA. But yeah,

1580
01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:23,439
Speaker 6: did he prove that he is competitive enough, competitive enough

1581
01:16:23,439 --> 01:16:26,280
Speaker 6: to be a champion in that division, no question about it.

1582
01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:30,719
Speaker 2: But you know, Tommy is everything, you know, let him.

1583
01:16:30,600 --> 01:16:32,640
Speaker 6: Rebuild a little bit, get a little more experience, and

1584
01:16:32,640 --> 01:16:34,280
Speaker 6: then do it at a later date to give him

1585
01:16:34,320 --> 01:16:36,640
Speaker 6: that better shot at maybe winning it.

1586
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:40,599
Speaker 2: So would that apply to Tatsuro Tira? I mean certainly

1587
01:16:40,640 --> 01:16:43,160
Speaker 2: a lot of people believe in this kid, believe that

1588
01:16:43,200 --> 01:16:45,920
Speaker 2: he can be the first Japanese born champion. If you

1589
01:16:45,960 --> 01:16:49,679
Speaker 2: look at the UFC body of work, you know, finish CJ. Vegata,

1590
01:16:49,720 --> 01:16:51,640
Speaker 2: a guy that a lot of people don't finish. And

1591
01:16:51,680 --> 01:16:55,960
Speaker 2: Bergara misweight for that fight by three pounds. He's putting

1592
01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:00,800
Speaker 2: guys away. Perez was the guy who came in as

1593
01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:03,679
Speaker 2: the more active party here right second or third start

1594
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:05,760
Speaker 2: of twenty twenty four. Perhaps that played into the knee

1595
01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:07,519
Speaker 2: injury a little bit. All that al Spreads is asked

1596
01:17:07,560 --> 01:17:09,400
Speaker 2: of his body this year, But this all of a

1597
01:17:09,439 --> 01:17:11,920
Speaker 2: sudden thrust Tyra into the top five. You think he's

1598
01:17:12,160 --> 01:17:16,360
Speaker 2: ready for Pantosia now eight weeks later. I think he's

1599
01:17:16,360 --> 01:17:18,080
Speaker 2: a very interesting challenge.

1600
01:17:18,640 --> 01:17:21,920
Speaker 6: You know, there's no question about that. The kid is confident,

1601
01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:24,759
Speaker 6: he's fighting like he's been in the UFC for years.

1602
01:17:25,640 --> 01:17:29,519
Speaker 6: He's young, he's dynamic, and he's.

1603
01:17:29,680 --> 01:17:32,000
Speaker 2: Really good everywhere. He's dangerous everywhere. Man.

1604
01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:38,519
Speaker 5: So yeah, I wouldn't be against that. I like that fight. Again.

1605
01:17:39,280 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 6: I tend to take a more conservative route, but it's

1606
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:44,880
Speaker 6: not about each individual fighter. It's about making the best

1607
01:17:44,880 --> 01:17:47,879
Speaker 6: fights possible. And if that's the case right for the UFC,

1608
01:17:48,320 --> 01:17:50,080
Speaker 6: then that might be the fight to me.

1609
01:17:50,640 --> 01:17:52,439
Speaker 2: You know what I'm gonna do. I'm just gonna book

1610
01:17:52,479 --> 01:17:56,400
Speaker 2: ale Achandre Pantoja on the podcast. It's overdue anyway. He's

1611
01:17:56,400 --> 01:17:59,240
Speaker 2: been in a lot of wars, right, But I just

1612
01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:02,320
Speaker 2: feel like he wants to be an active UFC champion,

1613
01:18:02,520 --> 01:18:06,040
Speaker 2: and there were some eyebrows raised even when Steve Erseg

1614
01:18:06,040 --> 01:18:08,240
Speaker 2: got the shot, even though a lot of us felt

1615
01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:10,479
Speaker 2: going into that match now fight, if he could do

1616
01:18:10,560 --> 01:18:13,040
Speaker 2: something and a few things went his way, that he

1617
01:18:13,080 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 2: would be the guy. I don't know. I find it

1618
01:18:14,560 --> 01:18:17,400
Speaker 2: to be very interesting as to what they do right now.

1619
01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:21,640
Speaker 2: Uh with Pantosia, and I think Tyra could be just

1620
01:18:21,720 --> 01:18:24,519
Speaker 2: as intriguing as Erseg was for people because there is

1621
01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:28,520
Speaker 2: some unknown there. We have at least seen Erseg and Pantosia.

1622
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:30,240
Speaker 2: All Right, I want to get to some other winners

1623
01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:32,479
Speaker 2: if I could real quickly. We got a Leab Delazi's

1624
01:18:32,520 --> 01:18:34,360
Speaker 2: coming up here in about eight minutes, and then we

1625
01:18:34,439 --> 01:18:37,839
Speaker 2: will get to Brian Petrie and our selections for UFC

1626
01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:41,400
Speaker 2: Fight Night Saudi Arabia Live on ABC. Can you get

1627
01:18:41,439 --> 01:18:43,519
Speaker 2: a start time for us on that jay? By the way,

1628
01:18:43,600 --> 01:18:46,560
Speaker 2: Robert Whitaker and Nick Rammalis scaov is at yeah, I

1629
01:18:46,600 --> 01:18:49,840
Speaker 2: can do that too much to ask, all right, Kenny

1630
01:18:49,920 --> 01:18:52,000
Speaker 2: so I. Ramala Scareb obviously was to compete in the

1631
01:18:52,000 --> 01:18:53,920
Speaker 2: comin event this past weekend. He gets pulled for the

1632
01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:57,720
Speaker 2: Whitaker fight Miles Johns and Douglas Silva deandraj in the

1633
01:18:57,760 --> 01:19:00,439
Speaker 2: comin event at Bandon Wait. Unanimous decision for Miles John's

1634
01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:02,880
Speaker 2: and he had a ton of potential coming into the

1635
01:19:02,960 --> 01:19:05,120
Speaker 2: UFC's a plus athlete, you know, just a lot of

1636
01:19:05,120 --> 01:19:08,560
Speaker 2: skills in a small package. I have careful with some

1637
01:19:08,640 --> 01:19:11,000
Speaker 2: of these things. A lot of skills in that small

1638
01:19:11,120 --> 01:19:15,240
Speaker 2: tight Miles John's package. But Kenny I believed in Miles

1639
01:19:15,280 --> 01:19:18,840
Speaker 2: John's and you know, another clean outing I thought for

1640
01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:21,000
Speaker 2: him over the weekend. He had anything for us on

1641
01:19:21,080 --> 01:19:23,719
Speaker 2: Miles Johnes. John believed in his package. Man.

1642
01:19:24,320 --> 01:19:27,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know, I think that he's a good fighter.

1643
01:19:27,800 --> 01:19:30,599
Speaker 2: Man, he really is. He's a good fighter. He proved it.

1644
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:31,639
Speaker 2: It was a close one.

1645
01:19:32,240 --> 01:19:33,920
Speaker 6: I would have liked to see in a little bit

1646
01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:36,599
Speaker 6: more action from both men, you know. I think they

1647
01:19:36,960 --> 01:19:39,000
Speaker 6: really had a lot of respect for each other. And

1648
01:19:39,360 --> 01:19:42,240
Speaker 6: both guys carry knockout power in that weight class, which

1649
01:19:42,280 --> 01:19:45,320
Speaker 6: I think is very rare. That's probably why we didn't

1650
01:19:45,320 --> 01:19:48,160
Speaker 6: see as much volume, perhaps, but I thought there was

1651
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:51,040
Speaker 6: some good action back and forth. For me, I think

1652
01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:54,160
Speaker 6: it was the cleanliness of the punches of Miles John's

1653
01:19:54,200 --> 01:19:56,800
Speaker 6: that really was the difference, the fact that he was

1654
01:19:56,880 --> 01:20:01,880
Speaker 6: backing Douglas Downdrage a little bit more, backing him up

1655
01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,960
Speaker 6: a little bit more, I think was the difference landing

1656
01:20:04,000 --> 01:20:07,720
Speaker 6: those cleaner punches. I think that's why he won and

1657
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:09,759
Speaker 6: should have one. I think they got it right there,

1658
01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:12,120
Speaker 6: and curious to see who he fights next.

1659
01:20:12,120 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 2: Man, I'm gonna get you out of here unless you

1660
01:20:15,120 --> 01:20:18,920
Speaker 2: have anything else. Three pm main card start time, three

1661
01:20:19,000 --> 01:20:23,160
Speaker 2: pm Eastern Time, which would be ten pm in Saudi Arabia,

1662
01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:25,439
Speaker 2: which makes a lot of sense. So three pm Eastern

1663
01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:29,679
Speaker 2: for the main card on ABC this weekend. Robert Whitaker

1664
01:20:29,680 --> 01:20:31,519
Speaker 2: and Nicra I'm all scared of if you're excited. Huh, well,

1665
01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:33,479
Speaker 2: I I mean, I'm gonna be honest. My daughters are

1666
01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:36,280
Speaker 2: ten and seven, but they can't get enough of mid

1667
01:20:36,320 --> 01:20:39,880
Speaker 2: afternoon Uncle John calling fight, so they don't get a

1668
01:20:39,920 --> 01:20:42,400
Speaker 2: lot of those opportunities. All right, you're wearing an Annex

1669
01:20:42,439 --> 01:20:44,680
Speaker 2: squared sweatshirt. Do you have any breaking news as far

1670
01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:47,720
Speaker 2: as that NFL podcast is concerned. No, but it's going

1671
01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,200
Speaker 2: to be an exciting season I think coming up season three.

1672
01:20:50,560 --> 01:20:52,720
Speaker 2: Let's go there. We'll let you know where where it's at.

1673
01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:56,720
Speaker 2: But appreciate you boys having me. If people want to

01:21:34,160 --> 01:21:35,880
Speaker 2: If you could also chase a betting line for me

1690
01:21:35,920 --> 01:21:38,320
Speaker 2: on Israel ad dess sagnya and dricus du plus c.

1691
01:21:38,680 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 2: And if people do want to know why I keep

1692
01:21:40,479 --> 01:21:43,000
Speaker 2: going back and forth on that pronunciation on a dess sonya.

1693
01:21:43,080 --> 01:21:45,639
Speaker 2: Maybe people don't want to know. But we sat down

1694
01:21:45,680 --> 01:21:49,040
Speaker 2: with Izzy and his parents years ago and had a

1695
01:21:49,040 --> 01:21:53,439
Speaker 2: conversation about Atasanya versus a death Sonya, and gosh, it's

1696
01:21:53,439 --> 01:21:55,680
Speaker 2: been said so many different ways. He said it like

1697
01:21:55,720 --> 01:21:58,439
Speaker 2: three different ways on his initial UFC audio file. So

1698
01:21:58,479 --> 01:22:00,599
Speaker 2: we made the determination at that point time to keep

1699
01:22:00,640 --> 01:22:03,919
Speaker 2: it out of Sonya. But I hear him say dssinia

1700
01:22:03,960 --> 01:22:07,000
Speaker 2: all the time, and sometimes I just sneak into that

1701
01:22:07,040 --> 01:22:10,800
Speaker 2: habit a little bit. All right, anything else for us, Kenny,

1702
01:22:10,800 --> 01:22:13,120
Speaker 2: I thought the Brady heat Stand fight was pretty exciting.

1703
01:22:13,160 --> 01:22:15,880
Speaker 2: Garrett Armfield is a fighter that I believe in, but

1704
01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:18,280
Speaker 2: a tremendous rally by heat Stand to get the submission,

1705
01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:20,640
Speaker 2: And for me, there are a lot of things I

1706
01:22:20,680 --> 01:22:23,800
Speaker 2: can't relate to it when I watched mixed martial arts,

1707
01:22:23,800 --> 01:22:26,280
Speaker 2: the relative mental and physical and emotional toughness of all

1708
01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:29,639
Speaker 2: you guys. But just seeing a guy get knocked down

1709
01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:33,080
Speaker 2: and nearly out and then having the resolve to come

1710
01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 2: back the way he Stand did and to get a

1711
01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:39,760
Speaker 2: submission gets the bonus. These are the nights upon which

1712
01:22:39,800 --> 01:22:42,599
Speaker 2: careers and lives change, and I feel felt really good

1713
01:22:42,640 --> 01:22:43,840
Speaker 2: for he Stand watching.

1714
01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:47,240
Speaker 6: That beautifully put it was not looking good for heat Stand.

1715
01:22:47,240 --> 01:22:50,519
Speaker 6: There were some really tough moments and it wasn't just

1716
01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:51,120
Speaker 6: once right.

1717
01:22:51,160 --> 01:22:52,679
Speaker 2: There was a few times where.

1718
01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:54,559
Speaker 6: It looked like he was rocked and was gonna get

1719
01:22:54,600 --> 01:23:00,160
Speaker 6: taken out. Armfield I think followed up on the ground

1720
01:23:00,160 --> 01:23:03,599
Speaker 6: be a little bit too much. I think he wasn't

1721
01:23:03,600 --> 01:23:07,120
Speaker 6: really thinking regards to where am I winning this fight.

1722
01:23:07,240 --> 01:23:10,200
Speaker 6: I'm just gonna follow him anywhere and trying to finish him.

1723
01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:12,760
Speaker 6: And I think that's where he faltered a little bit.

1724
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:16,200
Speaker 6: I'm not sure he respected he stands grappling as much

1725
01:23:16,240 --> 01:23:19,200
Speaker 6: as he should have, and that's what got him back

1726
01:23:19,240 --> 01:23:22,679
Speaker 6: into this fight. He stand just looked great, came in

1727
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:25,800
Speaker 6: in tremendous shape. There are some question marks as to

1728
01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:27,839
Speaker 6: who was going to have the better condition, and Armfield

1729
01:23:27,840 --> 01:23:30,040
Speaker 6: said he was going to try to challenge that. That

1730
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:32,479
Speaker 6: never came to fruition. He stand was still sharp all

1731
01:23:32,520 --> 01:23:35,200
Speaker 6: the way at the end, as evidence of that submission

1732
01:23:35,200 --> 01:23:38,840
Speaker 6: in round three. And I also think Armfield wasn't defending

1733
01:23:38,920 --> 01:23:40,760
Speaker 6: that real naked choke as well as he should have.

1734
01:23:40,800 --> 01:23:43,200
Speaker 6: And yes he was escaping it early on in the fight,

1735
01:23:43,280 --> 01:23:46,720
Speaker 6: it doesn't mean that you're doing it properly or that

1736
01:23:46,760 --> 01:23:50,200
Speaker 6: you're respecting the skills of the other guy that's on

1737
01:23:50,240 --> 01:23:52,920
Speaker 6: your back and I think that he thought it was

1738
01:23:52,960 --> 01:23:55,080
Speaker 6: going to work again and it just did not. You

1739
01:23:55,200 --> 01:23:56,920
Speaker 6: have to get your hands in place, you have to

1740
01:23:56,920 --> 01:23:59,600
Speaker 6: get your chin and shoulder in the proper positioning, and

1741
01:23:59,680 --> 01:24:03,000
Speaker 6: he was doing that. He stand finally took advantage of that.

1742
01:24:03,280 --> 01:24:05,559
Speaker 6: He came into great shape and that's what won him

1743
01:24:05,560 --> 01:24:08,960
Speaker 6: this fight, in association with that submission at the end.

1744
01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:11,479
Speaker 6: So I thought it was a really fun fight, perhaps

1745
01:24:11,560 --> 01:24:12,679
Speaker 6: the best fight of the night.

1746
01:24:12,920 --> 01:24:17,680
Speaker 2: Yep. Also Lucas Almeado over Timmy Kwamba, su Amabayev over

1747
01:24:17,720 --> 01:24:20,160
Speaker 2: Jose Johnson. He didn't get it done by submission. Kenny

1748
01:24:20,200 --> 01:24:23,200
Speaker 2: thirty twenty sevens across the board there West and Wilson

1749
01:24:23,560 --> 01:24:25,320
Speaker 2: trying alarm Bard not a whole lot of those in

1750
01:24:25,439 --> 01:24:27,559
Speaker 2: UFC history didn't get a bonus. I don't know if

1751
01:24:27,560 --> 01:24:29,679
Speaker 2: he went bonus begging. I did not see the post

1752
01:24:29,760 --> 01:24:33,240
Speaker 2: fight interview, but sometimes that works against you. Anything else

1753
01:24:33,520 --> 01:24:35,479
Speaker 2: on UFC Fight Night that you would like to highlight

1754
01:24:35,520 --> 01:24:38,559
Speaker 2: before we move forward, no, sir, okay, all right, I'm

1755

Speaker 2: you're primed and you're primal and you're ready to go.

1769
01:25:08,200 --> 01:25:11,160
Speaker 2: That's right, Ben, Right. So a lot of people have

1770
01:25:11,280 --> 01:25:14,320
Speaker 2: never seen what they saw out of Tatsuro Tyra this weekend.

1771
01:25:14,400 --> 01:25:16,439
Speaker 2: Do you have any thoughts on that? Uh?

1772
01:25:16,520 --> 01:25:19,280
Speaker 7: Yeah, he looked amazing. I'm high on him. I know

1773
01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:22,160
Speaker 7: I took Perez the money and everything, Prez better, but

1774
01:25:22,400 --> 01:25:24,160
Speaker 7: he had a rough first round. Tyra did it was

1775
01:25:24,280 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 7: it was competitive, but it was like Perez was was

1776
01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:29,479
Speaker 7: there and then he was gaining momentum in pres with

1777
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:32,640
Speaker 7: the experience and Tyra just which is really weather That

1778
01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:35,760
Speaker 7: impressed me. Being a first five round main event in

1779
01:25:35,760 --> 01:25:38,479
Speaker 7: the UFC all highlights on him and one twenty five

1780
01:25:38,600 --> 01:25:39,960
Speaker 7: is wide open, so I.

1781
01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:41,880
Speaker 2: Love to call out. I think he's doing everything.

1782
01:25:41,640 --> 01:25:43,960
Speaker 7: Right in the back take takedown thing that blew the

1783
01:25:44,000 --> 01:25:46,360
Speaker 7: kne That's unfortunate for Prez, but it was pretty slick

1784
01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:46,800
Speaker 7: by Tyra.

1785
01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:49,679
Speaker 2: I mean, he's definitely got a fan of me. Sometimes

1786
01:25:49,720 --> 01:25:52,280
Speaker 2: as a commentator you can get caught sort of watching

1787
01:25:52,360 --> 01:25:56,040
Speaker 2: one guy. But watching that first round on mute, I

1788
01:25:56,040 --> 01:25:58,240
Speaker 2: felt like Alex Perez was getting a lot of things done.

1789
01:25:58,240 --> 01:26:01,479
Speaker 2: But Tatsuro Tyra is uh uh is really a fighter

1790
01:26:01,520 --> 01:26:04,479
Speaker 2: that I think is appointment viewing, and obviously he shined

1791
01:26:04,520 --> 01:26:07,000
Speaker 2: in his first UFC main event. All Right, I want

1792
01:26:07,000 --> 01:26:09,519
Speaker 2: to spin this thing forward. It is UFC Fight Night

01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:03,559
Speaker 5: I put it in my.

1826
01:28:03,520 --> 01:28:06,839
Speaker 2: Script three times so I could say it three times,

1827
01:28:07,320 --> 01:28:11,320
Speaker 2: and now it'll be four Reno Fuckerdinov minus three twenty five.

1828
01:28:12,160 --> 01:28:15,200
Speaker 2: I'll say it differently on the air. Ah take it

1829
01:28:15,240 --> 01:28:19,600
Speaker 2: on Nicholas Dalby, who's plus two sixty Dolby incidentally not

1830
01:28:19,680 --> 01:28:22,320
Speaker 2: nearly as fun to say thirty. First pro fight for Dolby.

1831
01:28:22,400 --> 01:28:25,840
Speaker 2: He's won four in a row and that included a

1832
01:28:25,920 --> 01:28:28,479
Speaker 2: finish of Gabriel Bond theme that we talked about a lot.

1833
01:28:28,479 --> 01:28:32,160
Speaker 2: That was last November November. Now he faces the heavily

1834
01:28:32,200 --> 01:28:38,280
Speaker 2: favored renat fuck Redinov, undefeated in the UFC Fokkardinov twenty

1835
01:28:38,320 --> 01:28:41,559
Speaker 2: one to one and one overall. Now the draw was

1836
01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:44,519
Speaker 2: his last fight against Elizios Aleski Dos Santos. It was

1837
01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:47,080
Speaker 2: the same night last November on which Delby beat bon theme.

1838
01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:50,439
Speaker 2: Brian Petrie. We will kick off the predictions with you,

1839
01:28:51,160 --> 01:28:54,200
Speaker 2: fock Redinov or Delby I've been here.

1840
01:28:54,080 --> 01:28:56,559
Speaker 7: Since the opening boys. I was catching live Johnny found

1841
01:28:56,560 --> 01:28:57,400
Speaker 7: a hell of a showed here.

1842
01:28:57,439 --> 01:29:01,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, he's listen.

1843
01:29:01,280 --> 01:29:05,320
Speaker 7: I love this fight. Nicholas Dalby's the underdog king. This

1844
01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:07,920
Speaker 7: guy cash is. People sleep on him. He's got an

1845
01:29:07,920 --> 01:29:11,120
Speaker 7: awkward style. The only time he's ever been finished was

1846
01:29:11,160 --> 01:29:14,080
Speaker 7: by Jesse Ronson. He was on grandpa's cough medicine, took

1847
01:29:14,120 --> 01:29:16,960
Speaker 7: a little too much and that got popped. Besides that,

1848
01:29:17,080 --> 01:29:19,920
Speaker 7: this guy's sturdy, solid, He's always in shape. He's getting older.

1849
01:29:19,920 --> 01:29:22,120
Speaker 7: I realize that he's cleaned up his life. Outside that

1850
01:29:22,320 --> 01:29:25,879
Speaker 7: and foc Gardino, this guy looked mortal, looked human against

1851
01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:29,920
Speaker 7: those lucky Dosantos, who is a stud, right, No problem

1852
01:29:29,920 --> 01:29:30,160
Speaker 7: with that.

1853
01:29:30,240 --> 01:29:31,720
Speaker 2: With the draw, thought he might have won.

1854
01:29:31,760 --> 01:29:34,679
Speaker 7: He gassed out, though, he slowed down covered in blood.

1855
01:29:35,280 --> 01:29:36,920
Speaker 2: Dolby, though, is a dog.

1856
01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:37,320
Speaker 3: Right.

1857
01:29:37,560 --> 01:29:39,240
Speaker 7: He has a fight outside the UC where they had

1858
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:41,840
Speaker 7: to stop it because there's too much fucking blood in

1859
01:29:41,880 --> 01:29:45,240
Speaker 7: the cage. This guy's not gonna stop right two sixty

1860
01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:47,960
Speaker 7: on Dolby. I like Fokardino if I think he's very talented.

1861
01:29:48,080 --> 01:29:49,720
Speaker 7: I don't think he's getting Alby out of there. I

1862
01:29:49,800 --> 01:29:51,960
Speaker 7: think he'll slow down after beating him up after round one.

1863
01:29:52,200 --> 01:29:54,439
Speaker 7: Round two's gonna be the game changer. Round three he's

1864
01:29:54,439 --> 01:29:56,960
Speaker 7: old Alby. Hopefully we get a finished but maybe not mabab.

1865
01:29:57,000 --> 01:29:59,200
Speaker 7: We get some good decision, but plus two sixty on

1866
01:29:59,280 --> 01:30:01,240
Speaker 7: Nicholas Delby, sign me the fuck up, baby.

1867
01:30:01,479 --> 01:30:04,080
Speaker 2: Nicely done, Brian Petri and by the way, Cody updating

1868
01:30:04,160 --> 01:30:07,080
Speaker 2: us via DraftKings sports book Israel Aada Sonia minus one

1869
01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:11,000
Speaker 2: sixty six U plus E plus one forty and Cody,

1870
01:30:11,040 --> 01:30:12,800
Speaker 2: I apologize. He gave me all these great notes on

1871
01:30:12,840 --> 01:30:15,639
Speaker 2: the Otamachiina. The chet didn't update, so you probably thought

1872
01:30:15,640 --> 01:30:18,240
Speaker 2: I was ignoring you. Certainly would not do that. Ken Flow,

1873
01:30:18,320 --> 01:30:21,559
Speaker 2: Reno fock Gardinov big favorite here against Nicholas Dolby.

1874
01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:24,839
Speaker 6: Your thoughts, yeah, listen, I was so impressed with Dalby's

1875
01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:28,720
Speaker 6: last performance against bomb Fime. I think it was not

1876
01:30:28,840 --> 01:30:32,559
Speaker 6: only his toughness that won that fight. That obviously is

1877
01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:38,120
Speaker 6: the case, but Bombfime just wasn't managing his his output

1878
01:30:38,280 --> 01:30:41,680
Speaker 6: very well. It was like every single response had to

1879
01:30:41,720 --> 01:30:44,880
Speaker 6: be one hundred percent energy, like he was swinging for

1880
01:30:44,920 --> 01:30:47,559
Speaker 6: the fences even though he didn't need to, And that

1881
01:30:47,680 --> 01:30:52,479
Speaker 6: to me showed inexperience, and Dlby was able to take

1882
01:30:52,520 --> 01:30:56,080
Speaker 6: over with his experience and his toughness and his chin.

1883
01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:58,760
Speaker 6: You know, Dolby's a little bit gonna be a little

1884
01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:02,120
Speaker 6: bit short on athleticism here. Falk Redinoff, I think is

1885
01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:05,759
Speaker 6: a very good wrestler, and I agree with you, Brian.

1886
01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:08,680
Speaker 6: While I don't think he's going to finish someone Likedlby,

1887
01:31:08,720 --> 01:31:10,200
Speaker 6: I think he's gonna outpoint him.

1888
01:31:10,240 --> 01:31:12,919
Speaker 2: I think it's gonna be a case of his wrestling

1889
01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:17,000
Speaker 2: taking him down, controlling, chipping away and winning that way.

1890
01:31:17,040 --> 01:31:19,960
Speaker 6: And if you're gonna fight Dalby, you better do your

1891
01:31:19,960 --> 01:31:22,360
Speaker 6: research and know that he's gonna be tough and he's

1892
01:31:22,360 --> 01:31:25,320
Speaker 6: got to be smart about managing his output, which I

1893
01:31:25,360 --> 01:31:28,120
Speaker 6: think he will do. Falk Redanoff seems like a pretty

1894
01:31:28,120 --> 01:31:31,599
Speaker 6: smart guy, and I think it's gonna be his wrestling

1895
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:34,120
Speaker 6: and his ground and pound that gets it done. So yeah,

1896
01:31:34,320 --> 01:31:35,960
Speaker 6: I'm not sure I'm going to bet on it, but

1897
01:31:36,560 --> 01:31:38,439
Speaker 6: give me bach gridin Off here.

1898
01:31:38,640 --> 01:31:41,840
Speaker 2: Nice official wagers coming up and place your bets in

1899
01:31:41,880 --> 01:31:45,000
Speaker 2: about fifteen minutes. Moving on now to a lightweight prelim

1900
01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:50,280
Speaker 2: between Nasrat Hack Perest minus two point fifty and Jared

1901
01:31:50,280 --> 01:31:53,519
Speaker 2: Gordon plus two oh five. So hack Press really Brian

1902
01:31:53,600 --> 01:31:56,519
Speaker 2: starting to come into his own three straight wins dating

1903
01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:59,000
Speaker 2: to those back to back losses to Dan Hooker and

1904
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:02,160
Speaker 2: Bobby Green. Jared Gordon, you could you also coming into

1905
01:32:02,200 --> 01:32:04,519
Speaker 2: his own right. Huge finish of Marco Madison with that

1906
01:32:04,680 --> 01:32:07,519
Speaker 2: Madison Square Garden backdrop last year. What do we think

1907
01:32:07,520 --> 01:32:10,599
Speaker 2: about the lightweights here? Hack Press the favorite and Gordon

1908
01:32:10,640 --> 01:32:13,120
Speaker 2: the underdog VP. Yeah, Happrass has had an up and

1909
01:32:13,160 --> 01:32:15,240
Speaker 2: down career. He was tagged as like the next big thing,

1910
01:32:15,320 --> 01:32:17,360
Speaker 2: kind of drops some You know, he obviously looks like

1911
01:32:17,439 --> 01:32:19,599
Speaker 2: Kevin Gaslam, so he gets compared to that realm as well.

1912
01:32:19,800 --> 01:32:22,400
Speaker 7: But this is a guy who who has really quick hands,

1913
01:32:22,600 --> 01:32:24,880
Speaker 7: take down the fence solid and if he's there on

1914
01:32:24,960 --> 01:32:26,840
Speaker 7: fighting and if he shows up, he's very good. The

1915
01:32:26,920 --> 01:32:30,840
Speaker 7: Landing quinionis fight landing Quinnonis took that fight on short notice, right,

1916
01:32:30,920 --> 01:32:33,920
Speaker 7: and he gave him a dog fight, and hap Prass

1917
01:32:33,920 --> 01:32:35,800
Speaker 7: won that fight. But Lane at one hundred and seventy

1918
01:32:35,800 --> 01:32:37,800
Speaker 7: one strikes, how did it dig deep? Or he was

1919
01:32:37,840 --> 01:32:40,479
Speaker 7: a major favorite? And then he knocks out Jamien Malarky.

1920
01:32:40,960 --> 01:32:42,479
Speaker 7: Guys riding a little bit of high confidence, so you

1921
01:32:42,479 --> 01:32:44,599
Speaker 7: ain't got Jared Gordon, who I know. We love Blao

1922
01:32:44,680 --> 01:32:47,120
Speaker 7: in this podcast. I love Blow myself, but Blao and

1923
01:32:47,160 --> 01:32:50,120
Speaker 7: Jared are very close friends. And you know, I just

1924
01:32:50,200 --> 01:32:54,160
Speaker 7: don't think Jared is you know that all that great.

1925
01:32:54,280 --> 01:32:56,759
Speaker 7: If I'm being honest with you, I think he's very

1926
01:32:57,560 --> 01:32:59,559
Speaker 7: basic and skilled at what he does. He can get

1927
01:32:59,560 --> 01:33:01,559
Speaker 7: the job done. He looked really good against Marco Mattson.

1928
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:03,960
Speaker 7: But when he fights someone more athletic and more and

1929
01:33:04,000 --> 01:33:06,600
Speaker 7: faster than him, I think that's where we see some

1930
01:33:06,640 --> 01:33:10,080
Speaker 7: stuff that maybe isn't so great. I think the leading

1931
01:33:10,080 --> 01:33:11,800
Speaker 7: to that, I didn't mean the dog Jared Gordon. I

1932
01:33:11,880 --> 01:33:13,800
Speaker 7: meant that the preamble. I think this line should be

1933
01:33:13,800 --> 01:33:16,320
Speaker 7: way higher. I think hahsproa. Actually, I would play him

1934
01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:18,040
Speaker 7: a minus four hundred if I'm being honest with you,

1935
01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:19,840
Speaker 7: I know that seems a little steep.

1936
01:33:19,920 --> 01:33:21,360
Speaker 2: I'm playing him. I have a big way jo On.

1937
01:33:21,400 --> 01:33:23,680
Speaker 7: I'm already had a nice little weekend last weekend. So

1938
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:28,920
Speaker 7: give me Nasara Paparas. He will be on my bet,

1939
01:33:28,960 --> 01:33:29,880
Speaker 7: you know my bets at the end.

1940
01:33:29,840 --> 01:33:30,200
Speaker 2: Of the show.

1941
01:33:30,240 --> 01:33:32,439
Speaker 7: Just a little tease there. Oh all right, we'll see

1942
01:33:32,439 --> 01:33:34,320
Speaker 7: how much I load up on him. Ken Flow maybe

1943
01:33:34,320 --> 01:33:36,840
Speaker 7: a thousand because Kenny's kicking my head in, but I

1944
01:33:36,840 --> 01:33:37,200
Speaker 7: don't know.

1945
01:33:37,280 --> 01:33:40,599
Speaker 2: We'll see. Yeah, he is kind of kicking your head

1946
01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:42,599
Speaker 2: in a little bit. I like your cap or T shirt.

1947
01:33:42,760 --> 01:33:46,400
Speaker 2: Thanks that an MMA Takes podcast. Sure is sure, that's outstanding.

1948
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:48,360
Speaker 2: That I gotta get me one of those. I'll send it.

1949
01:33:48,400 --> 01:33:50,160
Speaker 2: And that doesn't mean you pay for it and send it. No,

1950
01:33:50,240 --> 01:33:52,040
Speaker 2: I'll go on the website and pay for myself. Can't

1951
01:33:52,040 --> 01:33:55,880
Speaker 2: flow fifteenth UFC start for Jared Gordon, thirteenth for Nash

1952
01:33:55,960 --> 01:33:58,639
Speaker 2: rat Hack parass your thoughts on this one at fifty five. Yeah,

1953
01:33:58,640 --> 01:34:01,320
Speaker 2: you know, I thought that interesting that that Brian said that.

1954
01:34:01,360 --> 01:34:03,800
Speaker 6: You know, I do believe that hot Press is probably

1955
01:34:03,840 --> 01:34:06,400
Speaker 6: going to be the better athlete out there in regards

1956
01:34:06,400 --> 01:34:09,800
Speaker 6: to speed and perhaps mobility and stuff like that. I'm

1957
01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:12,719
Speaker 6: not so sold on his grappling skill, to be honest.

1958
01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:16,760
Speaker 6: I just think that, you know, there's times where he

1959
01:34:16,840 --> 01:34:19,160
Speaker 6: will look great and then he just kind of poops

1960
01:34:19,160 --> 01:34:22,840
Speaker 6: the bed. I also questioned some of the decision making

1961
01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:26,760
Speaker 6: in his fights at times, and he's been inconsistent. You know,

1962
01:34:26,800 --> 01:34:29,200
Speaker 6: I do think he's on one right now. He's looking

1963
01:34:29,280 --> 01:34:32,920
Speaker 6: much better and he seems like a really good, humble guy,

1964
01:34:32,960 --> 01:34:34,840
Speaker 6: hard working guy, all that stuff.

1965
01:34:34,840 --> 01:34:38,040
Speaker 2: But so is Jared Gordon. And I think that Jared's

1966
01:34:38,040 --> 01:34:38,719
Speaker 2: going to use.

1967
01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:41,880
Speaker 6: His striking to set up his takedowns, his control up

1968
01:34:41,920 --> 01:34:44,280
Speaker 6: against the cage, and that's what he needs to do

1969
01:34:44,320 --> 01:34:44,880
Speaker 6: in this fight.

1970
01:34:44,960 --> 01:34:46,639
Speaker 2: He's kind he kind of has to.

1971
01:34:46,600 --> 01:34:49,600
Speaker 6: Make it ugly here, and I think he has the

1972
01:34:49,640 --> 01:34:52,720
Speaker 6: ability to do it. I think he's loosening up with

1973
01:34:52,800 --> 01:34:56,080
Speaker 6: his striking a little bit, you know. Do I think

1974
01:34:56,080 --> 01:34:59,040
Speaker 6: he's the better striker necessarily, No, But I think overall

1975
01:34:59,160 --> 01:35:01,040
Speaker 6: he can cause a lot a lot of problems for

1976
01:35:01,240 --> 01:35:05,360
Speaker 6: Hawk Parass just based on his all around game, his conditioning,

1977
01:35:05,439 --> 01:35:08,800
Speaker 6: his pressure. I like Jared Gordon as the underdog here,

1978
01:35:08,880 --> 01:35:12,799
Speaker 6: to be honest, dude. Plus two oh five for Jared

1979
01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:17,840
Speaker 6: Gordon is I hate to call a bedding line disrespectful ever, right, Brian,

1980
01:35:17,920 --> 01:35:20,360
Speaker 6: because it speaks to maybe a little bit of my ignorance, right,

1981
01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:23,160
Speaker 6: because they're just trying to get two way action, and obviously,

1982
01:35:23,200 --> 01:35:25,160
Speaker 6: if they're getting a bunch of action on Jared Gordon,

1983
01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:26,280
Speaker 6: he'd be plus one forty.

1984
01:35:26,320 --> 01:35:28,920
Speaker 2: But man, was I way off like Jared Gordon plus

1985
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:32,040
Speaker 2: two oh five. Yeah, we'll see what happens this weekend.

1986
01:35:32,040 --> 01:35:35,840
Speaker 2: All right, I'm middleway. Shara Bullet is back, Shara Magomettow

1987
01:35:35,840 --> 01:35:38,439
Speaker 2: minus two twenty five taken on the newcomer Joey Yilton.

1988
01:35:38,680 --> 01:35:41,679
Speaker 2: Luderbach don't have the file on him yet. He's plus

1989
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:44,920
Speaker 2: one eighty five, so UFC debut can flow for the

1990
01:35:44,960 --> 01:35:50,879
Speaker 2: Brazilian louter back nickname Petigrino, strong, physically strong competitor, fourteen knockouts,

1991
01:35:50,920 --> 01:35:53,360
Speaker 2: thirteen subs. He's won four in a row thirty eight

1992
01:35:53,400 --> 01:35:57,040
Speaker 2: and nine with a no contest, thirty one years of age,

1993
01:35:57,080 --> 01:35:59,080
Speaker 2: and now he draws Shara Bullet can flow. I know

1994
01:35:59,160 --> 01:36:01,559
Speaker 2: Luderback is a guy that you have some familiarity with.

1995
01:36:01,880 --> 01:36:04,280
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on him here against Shara Magomedov.

1996
01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:07,639
Speaker 6: Yes, sir, I've seen Ludubaka. He fought a couple times

1997
01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:11,000
Speaker 6: in the PFL. Crazy that he was fighting at one

1998
01:36:11,080 --> 01:36:14,120
Speaker 6: hundred and fifty five pounds. This guy has fought all

1999
01:36:14,160 --> 01:36:16,160
Speaker 6: over the place in regards to weight class. He's kind

2000
01:36:16,160 --> 01:36:18,120
Speaker 6: of one of those guys like, give me a call,

2001
01:36:18,200 --> 01:36:20,639
Speaker 6: I'll fight at any weight class at any time. He's

2002
01:36:20,640 --> 01:36:24,720
Speaker 6: an absolute beast. He loves to fight. A record of

2003
01:36:24,840 --> 01:36:28,879
Speaker 6: thirty eight nine, thirty eight and nine with one no contest.

2004
01:36:28,960 --> 01:36:32,200
Speaker 6: This guy has some experience, you could say. However, every

2005
01:36:32,240 --> 01:36:35,600
Speaker 6: time he stepped up to a higher level of competition,

2006
01:36:35,840 --> 01:36:38,280
Speaker 6: he has kind of failed a little bit. I'm curious

2007
01:36:38,280 --> 01:36:39,960
Speaker 6: to see how he does at one hundred and eighty

2008
01:36:40,000 --> 01:36:41,920
Speaker 6: five pounds At the very least, I think we should

2009
01:36:41,960 --> 01:36:45,439
Speaker 6: see some better output from him from him in regards

2010
01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:48,960
Speaker 6: to energy, and he needs to take this fight to

2011
01:36:49,000 --> 01:36:50,840
Speaker 6: the ground. He needs to take it down to the

2012
01:36:50,880 --> 01:36:54,000
Speaker 6: ground quickly and utilize one of his front chokes, whether

2013
01:36:54,040 --> 01:36:56,760
Speaker 6: it's a dars or a guillotine. That's where I think

2014
01:36:56,760 --> 01:37:01,000
Speaker 6: he can maybe win this fight against someone like shah Bula.

2015
01:37:01,360 --> 01:37:05,759
Speaker 6: Mago Metoff. I love that nickname the Bullet because Mago

2016
01:37:05,800 --> 01:37:08,120
Speaker 6: Medoff is a problem on the feet. He has a

2017
01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:11,400
Speaker 6: great kicking game. He's got good knockout power with his

2018
01:37:11,479 --> 01:37:14,240
Speaker 6: hands as well. I think he's a little bit vulnerable

2019
01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:16,840
Speaker 6: when it comes to takedowns, especially in his last fight.

2020
01:37:16,880 --> 01:37:18,640
Speaker 6: You know, like he was doing really good, had a

2021
01:37:18,680 --> 01:37:23,280
Speaker 6: tough fight there against Silba, who is extremely durable. However,

2022
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:24,960
Speaker 6: he's doing a lot of kicks to the body, which

2023
01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:27,840
Speaker 6: was opening himself up to double leg takedowns. Off of that,

2024
01:37:28,160 --> 01:37:30,559
Speaker 6: I think he needs to abandon that either look for

2025
01:37:30,640 --> 01:37:33,200
Speaker 6: high kicks or go to the leg and he's got

2026
01:37:33,280 --> 01:37:34,759
Speaker 6: to stop those takedowns.

2027
01:37:34,800 --> 01:37:37,320
Speaker 2: If he doesn't, he could be in for an upset here.

2028
01:37:37,600 --> 01:37:40,639
Speaker 6: However, still, like Mago Metoff, I do see some value

2029
01:37:40,680 --> 01:37:45,040
Speaker 6: there for Luterbach, but give me Shota.

2030
01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:48,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, it seems like Luderbach. It doesn't even matter the

2031
01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:51,360
Speaker 2: combat sport North of Way class Like if you look

2032
01:37:51,400 --> 01:37:54,040
Speaker 2: at his tapology page, it's a little bit confusing as

2033
01:37:54,040 --> 01:37:56,040
Speaker 2: an MMA play by play man trying to figure out

2034
01:37:56,040 --> 01:37:59,200
Speaker 2: what exactly has been MMA competition On the other side,

2035
01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:02,479
Speaker 2: bry Shara all the Rage, twelve to zero in MMA,

2036
01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:06,840
Speaker 2: wild man, wild looking man, potent striking attack, a lot

2037
01:38:06,880 --> 01:38:09,760
Speaker 2: of violent kicks, exciting to watch, looked good in the

2038
01:38:09,880 --> 01:38:12,760
Speaker 2: UFC debut and now minus two twenty five here to

2039
01:38:12,760 --> 01:38:16,760
Speaker 2: get past the newcomer Joe Yilton, Luderbach, Brian Petrie, who

2040
01:38:16,760 --> 01:38:17,200
Speaker 2: do you love?

2041
01:38:17,600 --> 01:38:19,280
Speaker 7: I know I'm a buffer, but hopefully I have a

2042
01:38:19,280 --> 01:38:22,240
Speaker 7: good poker face because the last pick that Kenny was

2043
01:38:22,280 --> 01:38:24,200
Speaker 7: loaded up on not loaded up and picked. Jack Gordan

2044
01:38:24,320 --> 01:38:27,040
Speaker 7: rattled my cage a little bit. Okay, guys, rattle, I'm

2045
01:38:27,120 --> 01:38:29,960
Speaker 7: rattling a little bit. Boys, I'm a confident guy. This

2046
01:38:30,080 --> 01:38:32,800
Speaker 7: face knows chicks because of his confidence, not because of

2047
01:38:32,840 --> 01:38:35,840
Speaker 7: his looks. Okay, and I rattled right now, let's shake

2048
01:38:35,880 --> 01:38:36,120
Speaker 7: it off.

2049
01:38:36,200 --> 01:38:38,280
Speaker 2: Here we go. I love this fight. Luttle Box.

2050
01:38:38,280 --> 01:38:40,599
Speaker 7: A guy who will go to fifty five, will go

2051
01:38:40,640 --> 01:38:43,120
Speaker 7: to eighty five. We'll fight you karate combat. We'll do

2052
01:38:43,160 --> 01:38:45,120
Speaker 7: a custom rules about we'll do a karate fight.

2053
01:38:45,280 --> 01:38:45,400
Speaker 3: Like.

2054
01:38:45,479 --> 01:38:47,599
Speaker 7: He doesn't give a fuck. He's thirty one years old.

2055
01:38:47,800 --> 01:38:50,559
Speaker 7: He's probably got close to one hundred fights all combined him.

2056
01:38:50,560 --> 01:38:55,040
Speaker 7: He's got forty eight MMA fights. Very very stiff puncher.

2057
01:38:55,080 --> 01:38:57,840
Speaker 7: What I've noticed, he's very dense for at least with

2058
01:38:57,880 --> 01:39:00,719
Speaker 7: the way he fought at before. Very dense, very stiff puncher,

2059
01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:03,479
Speaker 7: which is good for him. Power shower of the bullet,

2060
01:39:03,520 --> 01:39:05,000
Speaker 7: which I want to. I love the nickname, but I

2061
01:39:05,040 --> 01:39:06,800
Speaker 7: also kind of want the pirate because he kind of

2062
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:09,000
Speaker 7: has some like pirate theme. I learned about this guy

2063
01:39:09,040 --> 01:39:11,040
Speaker 7: and read it, read it was all over this dude.

2064
01:39:11,479 --> 01:39:14,240
Speaker 7: Photoshot photos of this dude just fucking ripped up with

2065
01:39:14,280 --> 01:39:18,400
Speaker 7: one eye and just a killer. Right in the Bruno

2066
01:39:18,439 --> 01:39:20,360
Speaker 7: Silvi fight, I thought, you know, he just looked Okay,

2067
01:39:20,439 --> 01:39:23,000
Speaker 7: great kicks, land one hundred and thirteen strikes. I'll point

2068
01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:25,600
Speaker 7: at Silva got taken down three times, didn't show my

2069
01:39:25,680 --> 01:39:28,479
Speaker 7: off much off his back Cardial was kind of there.

2070
01:39:28,880 --> 01:39:29,559
Speaker 2: He's gonna be.

2071
01:39:29,520 --> 01:39:31,559
Speaker 7: Fighting in Saudi Arabia and I'll be daby for a while,

2072
01:39:31,600 --> 01:39:33,439
Speaker 7: so we better get us stud He's a star, only

2073
01:39:33,520 --> 01:39:36,439
Speaker 7: twelve fights, heavy kicking game. I wish he worked on

2074
01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:39,200
Speaker 7: his hands a little more. Kenny nailed it. Don't touch

2075
01:39:39,200 --> 01:39:41,599
Speaker 7: the body as much, go up high, use your hands,

2076
01:39:41,680 --> 01:39:43,759
Speaker 7: use your footwork. I think he's gonna be the bigger

2077
01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:46,240
Speaker 7: sized guy here, so I hopefully that can prevent him

2078
01:39:46,240 --> 01:39:49,000
Speaker 7: from getting taken down as much as he did against

2079
01:39:49,000 --> 01:39:51,280
Speaker 7: Bruno Silva, because Brutal Silva is a legit one eighty

2080
01:39:51,280 --> 01:39:53,639
Speaker 7: five er. I don't really know if Ludabac is I'm

2081
01:39:53,680 --> 01:39:55,439
Speaker 7: gonna go with the bullet as well, Shara, I don't

2082
01:39:55,439 --> 01:39:56,519
Speaker 7: know if I'm a load up on him.

2083
01:39:56,600 --> 01:39:58,160
Speaker 2: I really don't see how this fight going. This is

2084
01:39:58,200 --> 01:40:00,439
Speaker 2: a really good replacement.

2085
01:40:00,160 --> 01:40:03,080
Speaker 7: That UFC did here because this wasn't Charles's original opponent,

2086
01:40:03,200 --> 01:40:04,760
Speaker 7: so it's going to be a fireworks man.

2087
01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:08,200
Speaker 2: By the way, Ali abdel Aziz, we will reschedule for

2088
01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:09,920
Speaker 2: later in the week So he was supposed to come

2089
01:40:09,960 --> 01:40:12,240
Speaker 2: on with us last week at nine pm, and I

2090
01:40:12,280 --> 01:40:14,439
Speaker 2: had to cancel on him because of that movie. So

2091
01:40:14,520 --> 01:40:16,640
Speaker 2: then he thought it was nine pm today and not

2092
01:40:16,800 --> 01:40:20,240
Speaker 2: nine am Pacific, So he just texted me. He has

2093
01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:23,320
Speaker 2: obviously much bigger business to attend to than the Anakin

2094
01:40:23,360 --> 01:40:25,240
Speaker 2: Florian podcast, but I just didn't want to put that

2095
01:40:25,479 --> 01:40:29,160
Speaker 2: on him in totality all right. Main card opener three

2096
01:40:29,320 --> 01:40:32,920
Speaker 2: pm Eastern Time, live on ABC at light heavyweight Johnny

2097
01:40:32,920 --> 01:40:35,479
Speaker 2: Walker blue minus one eighteen. He is the number seven

2098
01:40:35,560 --> 01:40:39,080
Speaker 2: ranked light heavyweight contender taking on ninth ranked Vulcan Uzdemir,

2099
01:40:39,080 --> 01:40:42,880
Speaker 2: who is minus one oh two. Big fight here, Brian

2100
01:40:43,000 --> 01:40:45,840
Speaker 2: for really both guys in terms of ever fighting for

2101
01:40:45,880 --> 01:40:48,920
Speaker 2: the belt again. If you are Uzdamir, now six plus

2102
01:40:49,040 --> 01:40:51,519
Speaker 2: years removed from his title shot against Daniel Cormier, he

2103
01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:54,880
Speaker 2: has won two of three Johnny Walker winless, spanning his

2104
01:40:54,960 --> 01:40:57,560
Speaker 2: last two, both of those of course against Maga met Ankliab.

2105
01:40:57,840 --> 01:40:59,920
Speaker 2: Your thoughts on this one pp pretty close on paper?

2106
01:41:00,360 --> 01:41:02,920
Speaker 7: Yeah, Before the ankle I fight, Johnny Walker looked great. Yeah,

2107
01:41:02,960 --> 01:41:04,559
Speaker 7: you start to really kind of come into his own.

2108
01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:06,960
Speaker 7: The chin's always gonna be the problem. The chin's always

2109
01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:09,640
Speaker 7: gonna be questioned. He's huge for this division, but the

2110
01:41:09,640 --> 01:41:11,320
Speaker 7: twins gonna be a problem or the chin's gonna be

2111
01:41:11,320 --> 01:41:13,559
Speaker 7: a problem. And Volcanosamir look really good at last time.

2112
01:41:13,520 --> 01:41:16,719
Speaker 7: I've got a submission when he's improving his overall game,

2113
01:41:17,080 --> 01:41:19,400
Speaker 7: but he hasn't had a knockout in twenty nineteen. Right

2114
01:41:19,680 --> 01:41:21,800
Speaker 7: the power that was there, the no time power where

2115
01:41:21,880 --> 01:41:25,000
Speaker 7: that's kind of either slipped away or where's it at?

2116
01:41:25,040 --> 01:41:28,000
Speaker 7: But it could rear its ugly head here in this fight.

2117
01:41:28,040 --> 01:41:29,920
Speaker 7: I think that's why the line's so close. I like

2118
01:41:30,000 --> 01:41:31,919
Speaker 7: Johnny Walker in the spot. I think he's more athletic.

2119
01:41:31,920 --> 01:41:33,759
Speaker 7: I think he's gonna stay away.

2120
01:41:33,880 --> 01:41:34,280
Speaker 2: I think the.

2121
01:41:34,200 --> 01:41:36,720
Speaker 7: Bigger reach in the length and everything is gonna be

2122
01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:39,400
Speaker 7: a big, big of an answer Johnny Walker here. And

2123
01:41:39,439 --> 01:41:40,640
Speaker 7: I think if it goes to the grapp I thing

2124
01:41:40,640 --> 01:41:42,880
Speaker 7: think Johnny Walker maybe just a touch better. Even though

2125
01:41:42,880 --> 01:41:44,759
Speaker 7: I don't think either of these guys are elite grapplers,

2126
01:41:44,880 --> 01:41:45,960
Speaker 7: he might be a touch better.

2127
01:41:46,160 --> 01:41:48,400
Speaker 2: So give me Johnny Walker. I like the spot. I

2128
01:41:48,439 --> 01:41:49,639
Speaker 2: like the close number as well.

2129
01:41:49,760 --> 01:41:51,200
Speaker 7: I think this will be a good parlay piece for

2130
01:41:51,280 --> 01:41:53,160
Speaker 7: some of those people that like to jump on parlays

2131
01:41:53,160 --> 01:41:55,559
Speaker 7: and have a nice little juice number. I think Johnny

2132
01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:57,519
Speaker 7: Walker could be your guy in that. So give me

2133
01:41:57,600 --> 01:41:59,519
Speaker 7: Johnny cam.

2134
01:41:59,400 --> 01:42:02,240
Speaker 2: Flo Johnny minus won eighteen right now on DraftKings Sportsbook,

2135
01:42:02,280 --> 01:42:04,439
Speaker 2: Vulcan Uzdemir minus one oh two. I think I would

2136
01:42:04,479 --> 01:42:06,439
Speaker 2: be trash if I made picks, but I'd be lying

2137
01:42:06,479 --> 01:42:09,160
Speaker 2: if I said I wouldn't love an opportunity to to

2138
01:42:09,240 --> 01:42:13,120
Speaker 2: make picks. It's been nine years since I made a pick.

2139
01:42:13,240 --> 01:42:14,840
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Kenny, Who do you have here in the

2140
01:42:15,520 --> 01:42:16,599
Speaker 2: main cat opener?

2141
01:42:16,840 --> 01:42:19,200
Speaker 6: You know, sometimes Brian and I do we'd see i'd

2142
01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:21,559
Speaker 6: I man on things, and we agree on a lot

2143
01:42:21,600 --> 01:42:26,880
Speaker 6: of things. Today isn't one of those to I think,

2144
01:42:27,080 --> 01:42:29,519
Speaker 6: listen Johnny Watt. I agree with Brian on the fact

2145
01:42:29,560 --> 01:42:32,400
Speaker 6: that Johnny Walker is the more athletic dude. I think

2146
01:42:32,400 --> 01:42:36,439
Speaker 6: he's the more dangerous dude. And I guess I don't

2147
01:42:36,439 --> 01:42:38,519
Speaker 6: know if I mean this respectfully, but I'm not sure

2148
01:42:38,520 --> 01:42:40,880
Speaker 6: he's a great fighter. I don't know if he's a

2149
01:42:40,920 --> 01:42:43,400
Speaker 6: good fighter or not. I think he's the more dangerous guy.

2150
01:42:43,920 --> 01:42:45,880
Speaker 6: I don't know if he's the better fighter. I think

2151
01:42:46,040 --> 01:42:48,640
Speaker 6: uz Demeir is a little bit more complete and he

2152
01:42:48,720 --> 01:42:52,280
Speaker 6: doesn't make as many mistakes. That that doesn't mean he's

2153
01:42:52,439 --> 01:42:53,960
Speaker 6: just going to go out there and win this fight though,

2154
01:42:54,000 --> 01:42:57,120
Speaker 6: because you have to respect the size and power of

2155
01:42:57,160 --> 01:43:00,360
Speaker 6: someone like Johnny Walker, no question about that, that is

2156
01:43:00,400 --> 01:43:01,360
Speaker 6: going to be a problem.

2157
01:43:01,560 --> 01:43:03,240
Speaker 2: I think Udimir is better on the ground.

2158
01:43:03,520 --> 01:43:06,000
Speaker 6: I think he's a little bit more technical on the feet,

2159
01:43:07,120 --> 01:43:11,920
Speaker 6: and you know, similar records ish the last four fights

2160
01:43:11,920 --> 01:43:17,400
Speaker 6: which I tend to look at and highlight, and yeah,

2161
01:43:17,600 --> 01:43:19,920
Speaker 6: I think I think Bulkan can win this on the feet.

2162
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:24,560
Speaker 6: I think he can win this on the ground. I

2163
01:43:25,479 --> 01:43:30,479
Speaker 6: haven't really been so impressed with the development of someone

2164
01:43:30,560 --> 01:43:35,679
Speaker 6: like Walker and give me uh uh Uzdemir.

2165
01:43:36,600 --> 01:43:42,120
Speaker 2: All right. Next up at welterweight Kelvin Gastolm minus two

2166
01:43:42,200 --> 01:43:46,120
Speaker 2: thirty eight taking on your boy d Rod Daniel Rodriguez

2167
01:43:46,120 --> 01:43:48,840
Speaker 2: in the Cannabis Bowl twenty twenty four. I mean, these

2168
01:43:48,880 --> 01:43:51,880
Speaker 2: guys can put it in the air. Can not Rod

2169
01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:53,800
Speaker 2: plus one ninety five back for the first time in

2170
01:43:53,840 --> 01:43:56,000
Speaker 2: more than a year dating to his TKO loss to

2171
01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:58,559
Speaker 2: Ian Maschado Gary. I think Kencelor might have actually been

2172
01:43:58,600 --> 01:44:00,840
Speaker 2: in the building for that one. Here he faces the

2173
01:44:00,920 --> 01:44:05,240
Speaker 2: twenty two time at UFC veteran Kelvin Gastolm b PE

2174
01:44:05,400 --> 01:44:08,200
Speaker 2: we know after the facts, some smoke will be in

2175
01:44:08,240 --> 01:44:12,320
Speaker 2: the air. But what happens inside the Academuh.

2176
01:44:11,040 --> 01:44:13,760
Speaker 7: Some fireworks, some smoke will people there. You go, dude,

2177
01:44:13,800 --> 01:44:14,760
Speaker 7: le I did that.

2178
01:44:15,160 --> 01:44:15,600
Speaker 2: I love that.

2179
01:44:15,640 --> 01:44:18,160
Speaker 7: Dee Rods got nineteen eighty six plaster on his chest. S.

2180
01:44:18,320 --> 01:44:20,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was born. You are the dogs, baby.

2181
01:44:21,360 --> 01:44:23,360
Speaker 7: Listen, he's on too in his last two and he

2182
01:44:23,400 --> 01:44:26,519
Speaker 7: got finished and it was imachid. Garry's gonna fight for

2183
01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:28,040
Speaker 7: a title one day. But and Dee Rod's a little

2184
01:44:28,080 --> 01:44:29,799
Speaker 7: on the older end. He's gonna be thirty eight in December.

2185
01:44:30,400 --> 01:44:32,320
Speaker 7: But uh, you know he got head kicked. He put

2186
01:44:32,320 --> 01:44:32,840
Speaker 7: his hands up.

2187
01:44:33,160 --> 01:44:34,439
Speaker 2: Just what it is? A powerful kick.

2188
01:44:34,640 --> 01:44:37,759
Speaker 7: You got Kevin gastlm returning to one seventy look good

2189
01:44:38,320 --> 01:44:39,960
Speaker 7: and then did it look so good against San Brady

2190
01:44:40,000 --> 01:44:42,840
Speaker 7: got out, grappled, got out, wrestled gott like told on

2191
01:44:42,880 --> 01:44:43,240
Speaker 7: the ground.

2192
01:44:43,320 --> 01:44:43,479
Speaker 2: Right.

2193
01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:45,920
Speaker 7: I'm thinking now that he's in Arizona, he's going to

2194
01:44:45,960 --> 01:44:48,120
Speaker 7: clean that up because he was a very clean wrestler.

2195
01:44:48,240 --> 01:44:50,280
Speaker 7: And with a guy like Dani Regatz, he's gonna want

2196
01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:52,880
Speaker 7: to come out and Wrestleguez has proven to be a

2197
01:44:52,880 --> 01:44:54,880
Speaker 7: pretty good has some pretty good takedown the fence you

2198
01:44:54,880 --> 01:44:57,479
Speaker 7: know you fought Pressing Parsons, who's glued to your legs

2199
01:44:57,479 --> 01:44:59,439
Speaker 7: every time you fight, and he handled him pretty well.

2200
01:44:59,520 --> 01:45:02,400
Speaker 7: Kelvin's li bit different, probably be stronger, but man, I

2201
01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:04,439
Speaker 7: don't know. I like Danior Alriguez in the spot. I

2202
01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:06,920
Speaker 7: was just talking to Kelvin. Daniro Alriguez is really good

2203
01:45:06,920 --> 01:45:10,240
Speaker 7: at range. His hands are really good. He's confident in there.

2204
01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:12,839
Speaker 7: He's a big guy for the way and his cardo

2205
01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:15,280
Speaker 7: is on point. He's obviously durable and tough. I think

2206
01:45:15,320 --> 01:45:18,439
Speaker 7: Kelvin striking is is a left hand in a right hook,

2207
01:45:18,479 --> 01:45:20,360
Speaker 7: and I think a lot of heav movement. I think

2208
01:45:20,400 --> 01:45:23,000
Speaker 7: you can figure him out pretty quick, and I think

2209
01:45:23,040 --> 01:45:26,439
Speaker 7: Danior Alriguez will, and overtime, Kelvin's got a head, a

2210
01:45:26,479 --> 01:45:28,720
Speaker 7: full cement. You're not finishing that guy. So I like

2211
01:45:28,800 --> 01:45:32,639
Speaker 7: danioral Reguez here, probably by decision. Man, you guys are

2212
01:45:33,080 --> 01:45:37,200
Speaker 7: all over the place. I absolutely love the dissension, not

2213
01:45:37,320 --> 01:45:39,760
Speaker 7: to suggest the kemflow is going to be on gasolum here.

2214
01:45:40,280 --> 01:45:42,680
Speaker 7: KG Kendy coming off a loss to Sean Brady, I

2215
01:45:42,720 --> 01:45:44,680
Speaker 7: know you guys are pretty tight. Prior to that, he

2216
01:45:44,720 --> 01:45:47,080
Speaker 7: got a much need to win against Chris Curtis, But

2217
01:45:47,120 --> 01:45:49,160
Speaker 7: I just want to submit this to you. Last finish

2218
01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:52,280
Speaker 7: for Kelvin gasolim Ken flow you were like thirty nine

2219
01:45:52,360 --> 01:45:57,479
Speaker 7: or something November twenty fifth, twenty seventeen against Male Bisping

2220
01:45:57,600 --> 01:46:01,160
Speaker 7: Thanksgiving seven years ago, was Kate He's last finish if

2221
01:46:01,200 --> 01:46:03,880
Speaker 7: my research is accurate, your thoughts on him here against

2222
01:46:04,479 --> 01:46:05,200
Speaker 7: d rud.

2223
01:46:06,000 --> 01:46:08,439
Speaker 2: Well, let's continue with the dissension, shall we?

2224
01:46:08,840 --> 01:46:09,040
Speaker 3: Uh?

2225
01:46:09,120 --> 01:46:15,439
Speaker 6: You know, Castell, I think that you know, he hasn't

2226
01:46:15,439 --> 01:46:17,639
Speaker 6: really made crazy improvements in his.

2227
01:46:17,600 --> 01:46:19,800
Speaker 2: Game as of late, Like there's nothing new he's bringing

2228
01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:21,559
Speaker 2: to the table. I agree with you there.

2229
01:46:22,640 --> 01:46:25,840
Speaker 6: D Rod is a very dangerous striker, but I would

2230
01:46:25,960 --> 01:46:27,800
Speaker 6: argue also that like there's not a whole lot of

2231
01:46:27,840 --> 01:46:30,519
Speaker 6: complexity to his game either. It's not like he has

2232
01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:33,960
Speaker 6: this game that is ultra technical. He's still very dangerous.

2233
01:46:34,000 --> 01:46:36,720
Speaker 6: I think he he might be the the guy who

2234
01:46:36,800 --> 01:46:41,160
Speaker 6: hits harder. But I think gas is gonna use his

2235
01:46:41,280 --> 01:46:44,160
Speaker 6: wrestling here. I think this is a fight for him

2236
01:46:44,160 --> 01:46:46,759
Speaker 6: where he can at least be successful on the feet

2237
01:46:46,840 --> 01:46:50,959
Speaker 6: and then implement his takedown game or at least control

2238
01:46:51,120 --> 01:46:54,320
Speaker 6: up against the cage and certainly on the ground. I

2239
01:46:54,320 --> 01:46:56,920
Speaker 6: think he'll he'll be fined. D Rod is good at

2240
01:46:56,920 --> 01:47:01,080
Speaker 6: getting back to his feet, but give me gas film.

2241
01:47:01,120 --> 01:47:06,560
Speaker 6: I believe let's go kgo. You know there's so much dissension.

2242
01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:08,760
Speaker 2: You guys are tempting me to give you guys two

2243
01:47:08,760 --> 01:47:12,360
Speaker 2: thousand dollars to spend this weekend instead of one. But

2244
01:47:12,439 --> 01:47:14,360
Speaker 2: that is not the case until three ZHO three all

2245
01:47:14,400 --> 01:47:17,320
Speaker 2: right comin event big time fight here in the heavyweight division.

2246
01:47:18,240 --> 01:47:22,479
Speaker 2: What a mixed martial arts offering from the UFC recent

2247
01:47:22,520 --> 01:47:26,559
Speaker 2: interim title challenger Sergey Pavlovich modest two twenty five taking

2248
01:47:26,600 --> 01:47:30,559
Speaker 2: on the very capable in all phases of MMA, Alexander

2249
01:47:30,640 --> 01:47:33,639
Speaker 2: Volkov plus one eighty five. I love this fight, BP,

2250
01:47:33,800 --> 01:47:35,160
Speaker 2: what do you have for us on the komain.

2251
01:47:35,080 --> 01:47:37,920
Speaker 7: Love this fight too, and listen, I've been ice cold

2252
01:47:38,120 --> 01:47:41,400
Speaker 7: in uh. Volkoff at plus one eighty five screams out

2253
01:47:41,479 --> 01:47:43,519
Speaker 7: right like that's what you want to take. I don't

2254
01:47:43,520 --> 01:47:44,840
Speaker 7: know if I'm gonna take them. I think I'm gonna

2255
01:47:44,840 --> 01:47:47,600
Speaker 7: go Pavlovitch. But Volkov, since he got steamrolled by aspinall

2256
01:47:48,320 --> 01:47:49,040
Speaker 7: has looked.

2257
01:47:48,840 --> 01:47:51,960
Speaker 2: Like a killer. Three finishes really re upped this game set.

2258
01:47:52,000 --> 01:47:53,680
Speaker 7: If that's the level I need to be at I'm

2259
01:47:53,680 --> 01:47:55,719
Speaker 7: gonna get there, and I love that shit from fighters

2260
01:47:55,840 --> 01:47:58,880
Speaker 7: especially you got like Volkoff's been around forever. Pobloic's coming

2261
01:47:58,920 --> 01:48:01,439
Speaker 7: off a loss of aspiral as well. Got slept first

2262
01:48:01,439 --> 01:48:03,759
Speaker 7: second lost in UFC after a long stretch of knocking

2263
01:48:03,760 --> 01:48:06,719
Speaker 7: everyone out. Volkov sixty seven hat doesn't have the reason

2264
01:48:06,800 --> 01:48:10,200
Speaker 7: manage because the Polar Bear and Paulovitch have the long arms.

2265
01:48:10,240 --> 01:48:14,519
Speaker 7: I can tie his shoes without even trying. Yeah, it's

2266
01:48:14,560 --> 01:48:17,120
Speaker 7: interesting because Volkov has that front kick and you can

2267
01:48:17,160 --> 01:48:19,280
Speaker 7: keep the distance if he wants. And I think he

2268
01:48:19,479 --> 01:48:21,400
Speaker 7: has a little bit of movement, and obviously on the ground,

2269
01:48:21,400 --> 01:48:23,360
Speaker 7: I think he's better. We haven't really seen Pavlovitch on

2270
01:48:23,400 --> 01:48:25,559
Speaker 7: the ground. A lot of question marks still, But I'm

2271
01:48:25,600 --> 01:48:27,880
Speaker 7: going to go with the Russian Bear, the guy that

2272
01:48:28,000 --> 01:48:31,280
Speaker 7: scares me a little bit, the guy that with the big,

2273
01:48:31,320 --> 01:48:34,000
Speaker 7: big power in Pavlovitch. But I wouldn't be surprised if

2274
01:48:34,040 --> 01:48:37,000
Speaker 7: Valkov wins at all. Again, I'm picking a little not

2275
01:48:37,080 --> 01:48:39,160
Speaker 7: as confident as normal, or I would pull the trigger

2276
01:48:39,160 --> 01:48:41,840
Speaker 7: on Volkoff. Will give me, give me the easy chalk

2277
01:48:41,960 --> 01:48:43,439
Speaker 7: in Pavlovitch Kenny.

2278
01:48:43,479 --> 01:48:46,160
Speaker 2: If this were Instagram, this would maybe qualify as an

2279
01:48:46,160 --> 01:48:49,920
Speaker 2: Alexander Volkov appreciation post right now from me, so thirty

2280
01:48:50,080 --> 01:48:53,519
Speaker 2: seven and ten for Volkov as a pro. Now he

2281
01:48:53,600 --> 01:48:56,879
Speaker 2: has won three in a row, Georgina Rosen Strike, Alexander Romanov,

2282
01:48:57,160 --> 01:49:00,439
Speaker 2: Tychiy Vasa. Those three have combined to lose ten of

2283
01:49:00,479 --> 01:49:03,759
Speaker 2: their last fourteen. But it's just the way he's fighting,

2284
01:49:03,800 --> 01:49:06,840
Speaker 2: the way he's preparing, the way he's talking. I think

2285
01:49:06,880 --> 01:49:08,960
Speaker 2: Alexander Volkov can win it all. I think he can

2286
01:49:08,960 --> 01:49:12,559
Speaker 2: win the undisputed UFC Heavyweight Championship. Now he has to

2287
01:49:12,600 --> 01:49:16,320
Speaker 2: contend with this frightening speed and power package that is

2288
01:49:17,080 --> 01:49:21,840
Speaker 2: Russian south paw Sergey Pavlovich, fascinating heavyweight comain event title

2289
01:49:21,840 --> 01:49:25,280
Speaker 2: eliminator of sorts. Who do you like, Kenny Floryan? It

2290
01:49:25,320 --> 01:49:26,639
Speaker 2: really is a fascinating fight.

2291
01:49:27,000 --> 01:49:31,280
Speaker 6: I think that Pavlovich is a problem just based on

2292
01:49:31,320 --> 01:49:32,479
Speaker 6: his speed and power.

2293
01:49:32,960 --> 01:49:35,839
Speaker 2: His blitzing is really tricky.

2294
01:49:35,880 --> 01:49:39,880
Speaker 6: Now, I think it comes down to Volkov's defensive guard,

2295
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:44,600
Speaker 6: his defensive ability, and his job. He cannot allow Paplovitch

2296
01:49:44,680 --> 01:49:47,960
Speaker 6: to just advance without eating a jab. I think it

2297
01:49:48,000 --> 01:49:50,400
Speaker 6: comes down to those long range weapons. Be it that

2298
01:49:50,520 --> 01:49:53,040
Speaker 6: job that I just talked about, or that lead leg

2299
01:49:53,160 --> 01:49:56,400
Speaker 6: or rear teep down the middle to keep Pavlovich on

2300
01:49:56,479 --> 01:50:00,719
Speaker 6: the outside. Now Brian mentioned the long arms. That adds

2301
01:50:00,720 --> 01:50:04,320
Speaker 6: another little wrinkle to the game, which adds to the fascination.

2302
01:50:03,920 --> 01:50:04,559
Speaker 2: Of this fight.

2303
01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:07,599
Speaker 6: When I look at this one, it is very tricky.

2304
01:50:07,640 --> 01:50:10,160
Speaker 6: Because I agree with you, John, there's no question about

2305
01:50:10,160 --> 01:50:13,280
Speaker 6: it that Volkov has made vast improvements in his game.

2306
01:50:13,520 --> 01:50:16,840
Speaker 6: You could see a dedication, especially in regards to his

2307
01:50:17,040 --> 01:50:20,360
Speaker 6: ground game, his ability to defend takedowns, his ability to

2308
01:50:20,400 --> 01:50:23,360
Speaker 6: attack on the ground with submissions. That was something we

2309
01:50:23,400 --> 01:50:25,080
Speaker 6: did not see early on that would say that was

2310
01:50:25,120 --> 01:50:28,280
Speaker 6: a major major weakness. Now he's taking guys out with submissions,

2311
01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:31,160
Speaker 6: which is super cool to see. It shows that passion,

2312
01:50:31,360 --> 01:50:35,000
Speaker 6: that love for the game. And yeah, just based on

2313
01:50:35,040 --> 01:50:38,439
Speaker 6: his height alone, his side, the dude is massive.

2314
01:50:38,960 --> 01:50:40,800
Speaker 2: Here's what is scary for me.

2315
01:50:41,160 --> 01:50:45,880
Speaker 6: He holds those damn hands down so low, and you

2316
01:50:46,280 --> 01:50:48,840
Speaker 6: just cannot do that against someone like Pavlovich. He has

2317
01:50:48,880 --> 01:50:51,160
Speaker 6: too much power, he has too much speed and that

2318
01:50:51,400 --> 01:50:53,120
Speaker 6: arm rate. You think you're out of reach, but in

2319
01:50:53,160 --> 01:50:55,880
Speaker 6: reality he could still touch you. If he touches you,

2320
01:50:56,040 --> 01:50:58,200
Speaker 6: he could put you to sleep. I think there's great

2321
01:50:58,280 --> 01:51:01,920
Speaker 6: value on. Volkov could be a good underdog bet here,

2322
01:51:02,920 --> 01:51:05,439
Speaker 6: but I like Pavlovich. One thing is certain. Maybe I'm

2323
01:51:05,479 --> 01:51:08,200
Speaker 6: jinxing myself here. This fight does not go the distance.

2324
01:51:08,280 --> 01:51:11,519
Speaker 6: If it does, I will be extremely surprised. One way

2325
01:51:11,560 --> 01:51:14,840
Speaker 6: or another, someone's getting to finish. I just think it's

2326
01:51:14,880 --> 01:51:15,760
Speaker 6: gonna be Pavlovich.

2327
01:51:16,439 --> 01:51:19,040
Speaker 2: I wonder what percentage of UFC athletes have at least

2328
01:51:19,080 --> 01:51:21,599
Speaker 2: one tattoo. I'm not sure if there's an intern out

2329
01:51:21,640 --> 01:51:24,280
Speaker 2: there that can chase that information for us, because like,

2330
01:51:24,360 --> 01:51:27,080
Speaker 2: if I had a big white back like Alexander Volkov,

2331
01:51:27,200 --> 01:51:29,840
Speaker 2: I might have gone full back tattoo as well. And

2332
01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:33,479
Speaker 2: unlike Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson, you know, Volkov wasn't

2333
01:51:33,479 --> 01:51:35,439
Speaker 2: put to sleep for that back tattoo. Did you see that?

2334
01:51:35,439 --> 01:51:38,479
Speaker 2: By the way, Brian So Colts quarterback Anthony richards And

2335
01:51:38,520 --> 01:51:40,679
Speaker 2: now he's got a lot of tattoos, right, So he's like, dude,

2336
01:51:40,720 --> 01:51:42,840
Speaker 2: I felt the fucking pain, right, but he had them

2337
01:51:42,840 --> 01:51:44,760
Speaker 2: put him to sleep. Can flow to get his uh

2338
01:51:45,080 --> 01:51:47,599
Speaker 2: full back piece done? That doesn't sound like a team

2339
01:51:47,640 --> 01:51:49,960
Speaker 2: Floorian type. Yeah, got a.

2340
01:51:50,000 --> 01:51:52,360
Speaker 6: Soft but you know, as far as Pavlovich, dude, his

2341
01:51:52,400 --> 01:51:54,400
Speaker 6: back could be a freaking projection screen.

2342
01:51:55,200 --> 01:51:58,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, you're right, You're right he should. Maybe he

2343
01:51:58,600 --> 01:52:01,040
Speaker 2: should talk to Volkov after the fight, of course about

2344
01:52:01,080 --> 01:52:04,000
Speaker 2: maybe back tattoos. But yeah, I remember when Volkov showed

2345
01:52:04,080 --> 01:52:06,439
Speaker 2: up with that fucking monster on us back, and it's like, man,

2346
01:52:06,800 --> 01:52:09,200
Speaker 2: you know, it's like Larry Bird who can see out

2347
01:52:09,200 --> 01:52:10,960
Speaker 2: of the back of his head. Volkov now got the

2348
01:52:11,000 --> 01:52:12,320
Speaker 2: monster on the front and the back. All are we

2349
01:52:12,400 --> 01:52:14,519
Speaker 2: gonna move on to the main event of Midway, Robert

2350
01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:18,639
Speaker 2: Whitaker minus one thirty taking on Ick rob Malascarov, who

2351
01:52:18,680 --> 01:52:21,000
Speaker 2: is plus one ten. So COM's out. You might have

2352
01:52:21,040 --> 01:52:24,360
Speaker 2: out bry all the scaov in He of course trained.

2353
01:52:24,400 --> 01:52:27,360
Speaker 2: He was in Las Vegas to compete, get to delay

2354
01:52:27,400 --> 01:52:30,120
Speaker 2: and gets a monumentally bigger fight here against the former

2355
01:52:30,160 --> 01:52:33,320
Speaker 2: Midway champion and future Hall of Famer close on paper,

2356
01:52:34,600 --> 01:52:36,120
Speaker 2: how do you see the main event playing out? My men?

2357
01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:38,400
Speaker 7: What a what a move by Alascaroff? I mean, this

2358
01:52:38,479 --> 01:52:40,040
Speaker 7: is a guy who, like I said, was supposed to

2359
01:52:40,000 --> 01:52:42,400
Speaker 7: You said it was supposed fight last week, and they

2360
01:52:42,680 --> 01:52:44,120
Speaker 7: threw him in the walls right when he signed with

2361
01:52:44,240 --> 01:52:45,920
Speaker 7: UFC as well, they knew this guy was a real deal.

2362
01:52:45,960 --> 01:52:48,280
Speaker 7: Now he's getting this shot and he runs to it.

2363
01:52:48,600 --> 01:52:51,240
Speaker 7: First five round fight in my I think, as my

2364
01:52:51,320 --> 01:52:53,479
Speaker 7: research shows, it is a career. I mean he might

2365
01:52:53,520 --> 01:52:56,760
Speaker 7: have been scheduled five, never been five against Bobby Knuckles,

2366
01:52:56,840 --> 01:52:59,719
Speaker 7: Robert Whittaker. And this guy's been in with everyone, Robert

2367
01:52:59,720 --> 01:53:02,360
Speaker 7: white Is, I look back at you. I track on

2368
01:53:02,439 --> 01:53:05,000
Speaker 7: my bets. He's been a fourn on my side. This

2369
01:53:05,080 --> 01:53:07,960
Speaker 7: is a guy who gets dropped by Courtmanghee bad in

2370
01:53:07,960 --> 01:53:10,599
Speaker 7: the fight at one seventy and then takes bombs from

2371
01:53:10,680 --> 01:53:13,840
Speaker 7: Yol Romero. It's like, how am I sup is the

2372
01:53:13,880 --> 01:53:15,760
Speaker 7: cat that this guy's known for a cham but he's

2373
01:53:15,760 --> 01:53:17,040
Speaker 7: getting droppedleft and right by the other.

2374
01:53:17,360 --> 01:53:18,120
Speaker 2: It's weird to me.

2375
01:53:18,560 --> 01:53:20,920
Speaker 7: And but he's skilled, right, So I don't know what

2376
01:53:20,960 --> 01:53:24,799
Speaker 7: to do here. Because Aliscaroff is a solid, awkward puncher.

2377
01:53:25,040 --> 01:53:27,960
Speaker 7: He'll come at you. He's aggressive, he has good wrestling.

2378
01:53:28,160 --> 01:53:31,639
Speaker 7: He's the only Fighterhamaia couldn't takedown when they fought prior.

2379
01:53:32,000 --> 01:53:34,679
Speaker 2: That says something to you. And I just really.

2380
01:53:34,600 --> 01:53:37,840
Speaker 7: Questioned how long this could go if he I think

2381
01:53:37,880 --> 01:53:40,200
Speaker 7: Ali Scaraff has to get Whittaker out of there early.

2382
01:53:40,439 --> 01:53:41,840
Speaker 7: You have to jump on him early, kind of like

2383
01:53:41,920 --> 01:53:43,439
Speaker 7: as he did. Hurt him in the first round, maybe

2384
01:53:43,479 --> 01:53:45,559
Speaker 7: take him out the second round. The longer this fight goes,

2385
01:53:45,600 --> 01:53:49,439
Speaker 7: I think it favors Bobby Whittaker. And I think Robert

2386
01:53:49,439 --> 01:53:53,120
Speaker 7: Whittaker is clearly more experienced guy. He's also got really

2387
01:53:53,160 --> 01:53:55,880
Speaker 7: good takedown the fence, and he's awkward enough in his

2388
01:53:55,920 --> 01:53:58,560
Speaker 7: own way with that weird blitzing karate and once you

2389
01:53:58,640 --> 01:54:00,679
Speaker 7: let him get in rhythm, it's going to be a problem.

2390
01:54:00,880 --> 01:54:02,439
Speaker 7: But I'm staring at the plus number and how that

2391
01:54:02,479 --> 01:54:04,519
Speaker 7: scare off, and it's like, because I think everyone's gonna

2392
01:54:04,520 --> 01:54:06,400
Speaker 7: load up with Wittaker, I think this number is gonna

2393
01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:08,840
Speaker 7: move on Whittaker. It's a smart money play. It's what

2394
01:54:08,840 --> 01:54:11,320
Speaker 7: what Kapper's like, is what sharp money's gonna come on.

2395
01:54:11,600 --> 01:54:13,839
Speaker 7: But I'm looking at this number on Ala scareoff, like, man,

2396
01:54:13,960 --> 01:54:16,680
Speaker 7: this dude's a little unproven, especially in the UFC, but

2397
01:54:16,720 --> 01:54:17,800
Speaker 7: he's got the skills to.

2398
01:54:17,720 --> 01:54:20,599
Speaker 2: Get it done. But I lean back to Robert Whittaker.

2399
01:54:20,640 --> 01:54:24,639
Speaker 7: Man Aliscaoff got clipped pretty bad in that fight against TAMAIAV.

2400
01:54:24,680 --> 01:54:27,439
Speaker 7: He's been shaken before outside the UFC. Could be of

2401
01:54:27,439 --> 01:54:30,000
Speaker 7: a chin issue. Don't really know, But if Bobby Knuckles

2402
01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:31,960
Speaker 7: can touch him, and he can touch them later in

2403
01:54:31,960 --> 01:54:33,680
Speaker 7: the fight when maybe he slows down a little bit.

2404
01:54:33,920 --> 01:54:36,920
Speaker 7: I think we're gonna get a really fantastic performance. Don't

2405
01:54:36,920 --> 01:54:39,160
Speaker 7: know how this fight's gonna go. Personally, I can't wait.

2406
01:54:39,320 --> 01:54:41,800
Speaker 7: Phenomenal In event, UFC does a great job as always,

2407
01:54:41,880 --> 01:54:43,120
Speaker 7: and give me Bobby Knuckles.

2408
01:54:44,160 --> 01:54:48,240
Speaker 2: Ken flow certainly comes Saturday night. The sportsbooks are gonna

2409
01:54:48,240 --> 01:54:50,560
Speaker 2: need ikram Ola scare off. I'm not sure that's the

2410
01:54:50,640 --> 01:54:54,160
Speaker 2: right side though. Your thoughts on Whittaker and ikram Ola

2411
01:54:54,200 --> 01:54:57,560
Speaker 2: Scarab under the lights Saturday afternoon in Saudi Arabia.

2412
01:54:58,160 --> 01:55:01,040
Speaker 6: Alice Garoff has a very impressive record fifteen and one.

2413
01:55:01,840 --> 01:55:04,120
Speaker 6: That one loss, of course, as you mentioned earlier to

2414
01:55:04,200 --> 01:55:07,560
Speaker 6: Hamza Jimayev, again nothing to sneeze at.

2415
01:55:07,640 --> 01:55:11,839
Speaker 2: That is very impressive. Make quick work of Warley Alvez

2416
01:55:11,920 --> 01:55:12,800
Speaker 2: and Phil Hawes.

2417
01:55:13,240 --> 01:55:16,400
Speaker 6: However, Robert Whittaker is not Warley alviz that he's not

2418
01:55:16,560 --> 01:55:20,400
Speaker 6: Phil Hawes. This is an absolute savage. I think with

2419
01:55:20,480 --> 01:55:23,720
Speaker 6: a ton of experience, he's got knockout power. He's not

2420
01:55:23,840 --> 01:55:26,960
Speaker 6: an easy guy to take down, as jol Romero found

2421
01:55:26,960 --> 01:55:27,920
Speaker 6: out and many others.

2422
01:55:28,840 --> 01:55:30,919
Speaker 2: And I think that that loss.

2423
01:55:30,680 --> 01:55:33,520
Speaker 6: Against drikis tu plus C was a blessing in disguise,

2424
01:55:33,640 --> 01:55:36,240
Speaker 6: and that there is no guy out there that you

2425
01:55:36,280 --> 01:55:39,440
Speaker 6: can take for granted. And Whittaker is a smart guy.

2426
01:55:39,560 --> 01:55:43,360
Speaker 6: He learns from his mistakes, and I think he's gonna

2427
01:55:43,360 --> 01:55:46,720
Speaker 6: come in here really well prepared. Why well, he was

2428
01:55:46,760 --> 01:55:50,640
Speaker 6: also preparing for a guy named Hamsa Chumayev, So I

2429
01:55:50,640 --> 01:55:53,960
Speaker 6: think he comes into a shark. Look at at these odds, man,

2430
01:55:54,120 --> 01:55:56,560
Speaker 6: this is going to change. I think it's gonna change quickly.

2431
01:55:57,040 --> 01:55:59,560
Speaker 6: Not many fights that you're gonna get with Robert Whitaker

2432
01:55:59,600 --> 01:56:03,000
Speaker 6: at one when he's facing a guy who has only

2433
01:56:03,080 --> 01:56:07,280
Speaker 6: two fights in the UFC. So I think Ali Scareff

2434
01:56:07,560 --> 01:56:10,960
Speaker 6: is give it a little bit too much credit. Maybe

2435
01:56:11,040 --> 01:56:13,680
Speaker 6: I'm wrong, but all I can do is make picks

2436
01:56:13,720 --> 01:56:17,320
Speaker 6: on make picks based on what we have seen. And

2437
01:56:17,400 --> 01:56:20,640
Speaker 6: what we have seen is Whittaker is going to take

2438
01:56:20,680 --> 01:56:24,080
Speaker 6: advantage of this fight in my opinion, you know, not

2439
01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:26,920
Speaker 6: only with his left hook, but just his general footwork,

2440
01:56:26,960 --> 01:56:29,600
Speaker 6: his ability to confuse, his ability to frustrate.

2441
01:56:30,040 --> 01:56:34,520
Speaker 2: Give me Whittaker, Ah dang day, I can just see

2442
01:56:34,520 --> 01:56:36,760
Speaker 2: it tonight. Brian can flows like, hey, honey, can you

2443
01:56:36,800 --> 01:56:38,920
Speaker 2: come over here for a second, Hey, I just want

2444

01:56:53,680 --> 01:56:56,080
Speaker 2: we mentioned a promo code earlier in the program, if

2449
01:56:56,080 --> 01:56:58,560
Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, But let us first update the standings

2450
01:56:58,560 --> 01:57:02,440

Speaker 2: and three on your calculated bets Garrett Armfield and Alex Perez,

2460
01:57:28,960 --> 01:57:32,879
