Huge, man, I mean, 328 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: it's huge here in Las Vegas. Ever everybody, and what 329 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: was funny is in the beginning, I had an opportunity 330 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: to invest in the Golden Knights. I'm like, hockey in Vegas, 331 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:08,160 Speaker 1: that's ridiculous.

He balling, balling. 543 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 1: So when we used to fund a team, me and 544 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 1: Lorenzo used to fund a team called the Little Cowboys 545 00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:30,240 Speaker 1: in Vegas, and he was on the Little Cowboys with 546 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:32,320 Speaker 1: my kids and a bunch of other guys that are 547 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:35,879 Speaker 1: playing right now, you know what I mean. There's a 548 00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:39,600 Speaker 1: kid named Cayu Uh he's playing with Uh. He just 549 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: got I think he's with Seattle. And then you know, 550 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:45,240 Speaker 1: there's a few kids that went to the NFL from 551 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: that team and in good colleges too. And to see 552 00:25:49,600 --> 00:25:52,199 Speaker 1: Pooka doing what he's doing now, it's just it's so 553 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 1: it could not happen.

I mean, 565 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 3: it's been really impressive. There's a lot of there's a 566 00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,399 Speaker 3: lot of great athletes. I mean, Bryce Harper's from out here. 567 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:40,360 Speaker 3: There's like it's like a little hub of studs. 568 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:41,879 Speaker 1: And it's actually been that way for a bit. I 569 00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:43,480 Speaker 1: went to school with Marty Cordova. I don't know if 570 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:45,439 Speaker 1: you remember him, but he was the nineteen ninety five 571 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: American League rook of the Year. He played for the 572 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:49,560 Speaker 1: Minnesota Twins, and you know, he grew up with us 573 00:26:49,560 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: that There's been lots of people that have come out 574 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:51,719 Speaker 1: of Vegas. 575 00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's crazy. We got to get back to the UFC. 576 00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 3: That's why we're here. We're talking to hell. Yeah, not 577 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 3: the founder, the guy who took it over bought it 578 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 3: for two million dollar are so different four point eight 579 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 3: Now we merged with WWE. Can you can you explain 580 00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 3: that real quick? I'm getting off my script because I 581 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 3: don't I don't know. 582 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 1: It's all good. Uh yeah. So what we did was 583 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 1: we went public a couple of years ago with Endeavor 584 00:27:14,680 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 1: and Devor went out and and and you know, did 585 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 1: a deal with Vince and the WWE to merge UFC 586 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 1: and w w E h under the same stock ticker 587 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 1: symbol t k O. And you know, I think he 588 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,239 Speaker 1: felt like there were a lot of synergies, Like if 589 00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: you look at the UFC, we we are a fucking 590 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 1: dialed in machine. And I think that when you looked 591 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: at the w W E already saw some some opportunities 592 00:27:41,359 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 1: to go out and cut new TV deals because their 593 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:47,480 Speaker 1: TV deals were up, and get that sponsorship number up, 594 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: licensing and a lot of other things that he could 595 00:27:49,720 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 1: add a lot of value to that would make this 596 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:52,840 Speaker 1: a very powerful stock. 597 00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:57,600 Speaker 3: Geez Games with Names is brought to you by my 598 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:01,080 Speaker 3: friends at win Bet.

Let's get back into this fight. 618 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:11,400 Speaker 3: How important of a character is Connor McGregor for the UFC. 619 00:29:11,200 --> 00:29:14,960 Speaker 1: Well, we've had. When you think about my business, it's 620 00:29:15,120 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 1: very star driven. So you know when we started out, 621 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: we had Chuck Laedell, Anderson, Silva Ronda Rowsey. I mean 622 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,719 Speaker 1: you think of all the stars that have come up, 623 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,960 Speaker 1: and every star that has been built in the UFC 624 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: has helped take I'll give you an example, like Matt Hughes, right, 625 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,719 Speaker 1: Remember Matt Hughes came out to a country boy can 626 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 1: survive and he appealed to a certain audience. Chuck Ladell 627 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,400 Speaker 1: had the mohawk, you know, and knock people out at 628 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 1: a time when people didn't really understand the ground game. 629 00:29:44,000 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: And then you had somebody like Anderson Silva who was 630 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 1: like the Bruce Lee of the UFC at that time. 631 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 1: He could do anything. So you had all these different 632 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:55,760 Speaker 1: characters with different personalities from different places who helped take 633 00:29:55,800 --> 00:30:00,080 Speaker 1: the sport to another level. Then comes Connor McGregor. One 634 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 1: of the things that I always talk about with Connor 635 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: McGregor is that everybody thinks they're Irish when you think 636 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,080 Speaker 1: about you know, you go all over the world, you 637 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: think about Saint Patti's Day and you know the Irish bars, 638 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 1: and everybody thinks they're Irish. The Irish thing is really powerful. 639 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: So he comes out incredible personality, He's from Ireland and 640 00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 1: he can actually fight, So it was like it was 641 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 1: such a home run, and it just you know, he 642 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,920 Speaker 1: took us to a whole other level throughout Europe and 643 00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 1: other parts of the world. 644 00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:32,960 Speaker 2: What makes him a special fighter is his hands length. 645 00:30:33,640 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: He's a lot of things with Connor. One of the 646 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 1: things with Connors, let's start with his personality. He's got 647 00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 1: this magnetic personality that you were just drawn to. He's 648 00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:47,640 Speaker 1: incredibly witty. His trash talk is Ali level. You know, 649 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:52,320 Speaker 1: his persona is Ali level. He's a guy that transcends 650 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 1: all sports.

What about his fight style? 654 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's one of these guys.

Those two are on a 680 00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,320 Speaker 1: collision course before they even knew they were. 681 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, as we touched on it earlier. 682 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:22,959 Speaker 5: Also, I mean these two camps, like it was just 683 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 5: animosity at every turn and a clash of styles too, 684 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:31,240 Speaker 5: Like you got to be cold, calculated, tough just to 685 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 5: do the fight, like great wrestler ground great ground game. 686 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 5: I mean a machine almost like I don't know, like, 687 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 5: you know, how do you even beat him? 688 00:32:39,640 --> 00:32:41,840 Speaker 3: It seems impossible. I mean, I know, no one's done it. 689 00:32:41,960 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you one of the things that's 690 00:32:43,600 --> 00:32:47,480 Speaker 1: super unfortunate for us, but very fortunate for Habib. You 691 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,200 Speaker 1: know the fact that I mean, this guy, I would 692 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,480 Speaker 1: have loved to have seen him go on longer. Yeah, 693 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:57,560 Speaker 1: so much more. When his dad passed away, it kind 694 00:32:57,560 --> 00:33:01,280 Speaker 1: of sucked all the energy. His dad was trainer growing 695 00:33:01,360 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: up and trained a whole camp and everything else, and 696 00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: the dad had a vision that Habib would be the champion. 697 00:33:06,680 --> 00:33:09,000 Speaker 1: Then when Habib retired, Islam would come in and be 698 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 1: the champion. Let me tell you what you want to 699 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 1: talk about. One of the greatest coaches in the history 700 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: of the sport that's never talked about Abib and the 701 00:33:15,440 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: murder Medoff's dad. You know what I mean when you 702 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:22,120 Speaker 1: think about what that guy built. So the problem was 703 00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 1: in the Muslim world is he became this huge megastar 704 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: in the Muslim world. So after he beat Connor McGregor, 705 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:32,200 Speaker 1: he went on like this tour of all the Muslim countries. 706 00:33:32,240 --> 00:33:35,120 Speaker 1: So he's he's going into Turkey, he's going into Saudi Arabia, 707 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 1: he's going to Abu Dhabi, he's going over to Dubai 708 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:41,000 Speaker 1: and they're raining on. I mean, he didn't even make 709 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:44,479 Speaker 1: it back to his dressing room. After the fighting. Putin 710 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:47,640 Speaker 1: was on the phone and Putin gave him and his 711 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,960 Speaker 1: father like twenty million dollars worth of property in Russia. 712 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,840 Speaker 1: Then he went into you know, the Muslim territories where 713 00:33:54,840 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 1: these guys are just cars, money, Jim's whatever, whatever he wanted. 714 00:34:00,960 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: So once you get to that level, it's like what 715 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,360 Speaker 1: we're dealing with with Connor McGregor. Connor McGregor lives on 716 00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,319 Speaker 1: a yacht in the middle of wherever the warmest place 717 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:12,880 Speaker 1: in the world is at that time, and you know, 718 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:13,359 Speaker 1: it's just. 719 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 3: And he's showing you, Oh, man, I live vicariously on Instagram. 720 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: Well, once you get to that level, man, it's just 721 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: you're not getting up and getting punched in the face 722 00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 1: every day anymore. 723 00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 3: It's just, you know, is Habib the greatest? 724 00:34:25,000 --> 00:34:27,400 Speaker 1: The greatest of all time? Is John Jones, John Jones, 725 00:34:27,800 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 1: N Jones, John Jones. John Jones is undefeated. Habib was 726 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 1: undefeated too, But I would have liked to see Habib 727 00:34:35,239 --> 00:34:38,040 Speaker 1: more do more. John Jones has been around forever. He's 728 00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 1: fought everybody in the light heavyweight division. Now he's in 729 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: the heavyweight division beating guys like take three years off. 730 00:34:43,880 --> 00:34:47,399 Speaker 1: Ali never looked the same after three years. He took 731 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: three years off. John Jones went in and made Cyril 732 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,920 Speaker 1: Gone look like he'd never fought in his life. Who 733 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:56,439 Speaker 1: you know? I mean, Jones is the greatest ever. He's 734 00:34:56,440 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: so long and he's never been beat never been beat man. 735 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:04,120 Speaker 1: Peter doesn't know what losing feels like. He's never lost. 736 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:04,719 Speaker 1: Think of that. 737 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:07,200 Speaker 2: Who's the NFL equivalent to Habib? 738 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:07,399 Speaker 1: Though? 739 00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 2: As a player, it's tough. 740 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: Well, it is because you know, you guys have so 741 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 1: many legends. You guys have so much history in the sport. 742 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 1: There's so many legends in your sport. It's hard to say. 743 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:22,880 Speaker 1: You know, we're thirty years old, but you know the 744 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 1: sport that me and the Fertida started is twenty three 745 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:30,240 Speaker 1: years old. Yeah, we're still We're still a kid compared 746 00:35:30,280 --> 00:35:32,000 Speaker 1: to the NFL and some of these other sports. 747 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 2: That's crazy. 748 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:34,680 Speaker 5: And the lead up of this one, I'd be remissed 749 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 5: if we didn't talk numbers. Have you mentioned this thing? 750 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 5: Twenty six and oh, coming off a win over Alai 751 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 5: a Quinto not that long a year earlier Connor twenty 752 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:47,839 Speaker 5: one and three, but hadn't fought since the mainway weather, 753 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 5: So there's a lot of talk would he have fared 754 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,880 Speaker 5: better if he'd had a little appearance in the octagon 755 00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 5: in between that you. 756 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,439 Speaker 3: Think he should have had a little a tune up fight. 757 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,359 Speaker 1: No, we don't do tune up fights here, and that's 758 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 1: not how this w works. Tune up fights are like 759 00:36:02,440 --> 00:36:04,319 Speaker 1: a boxing bullshit thing. 760 00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:08,640 Speaker 3: No stepping stones a step ll for not in UFC FU. 761 00:36:09,080 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's no such thing, double cham Yeah no, he uh. 762 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,160 Speaker 1: It's it's part of the problem, listen, in this sport 763 00:36:19,680 --> 00:36:22,600 Speaker 1: when when you have to be a very special kind 764 00:36:22,640 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: of person to have fifty eighty one hundred million in 765 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:30,040 Speaker 1: the bank and still come out and compete at that level, 766 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: it's part of what makes you so bad ass here. 767 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,640 Speaker 1: It's two things. Part of what makes you so bad 768 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 1: ass here is hunger, all the things you want right, 769 00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,280 Speaker 1: And number two is once you get to a level 770 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: of success and monetary success, how do you keep fucking 771 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:54,200 Speaker 1: training that hard and everybody that's under you is training 772 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,600 Speaker 1: to beat you?

So we're now 902 00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,879 Speaker 4: playing against all the kids that we usually would only 903 00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 4: play in like playoffs or. 904 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:56,720 Speaker 2: All Stars or whatnot. 905 00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 1: And so we're kind of like you said, the bad. 906 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 3: News Bad Bears. These people were classy and it was 907 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 3: people had money. It was also like Jules and. 908 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,120 Speaker 4: I were kind of like, oh, we're kind of getting 909 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:10,040 Speaker 4: pretty good at baseball. We're gonna be playing shortstop in 910 00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 4: second base. We had all these aspirations to be great. 911 00:43:14,160 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 4: And so we're playing at Kenyataa and the rival team, 912 00:43:19,160 --> 00:43:20,520 Speaker 4: I don't remember what their team was. 913 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:22,640 Speaker 3: They were green, I guess all I can remember. 914 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,480 Speaker 4: And they had this one dude who was like six' 915 00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 4: one two ten. 916 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 3: Rolled up he rolled up his sleeps. 917 00:43:30,080 --> 00:43:31,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, because he had guns. 918 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:33,520 Speaker 3: He was like a pre chunky kid, you know what 919 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:36,080 Speaker 3: I mean. So, you know, but like he rolled up 920 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 3: his sleeves. 921 00:43:36,840 --> 00:43:37,800 Speaker 2: I mean we're how old were we? 922 00:43:38,040 --> 00:43:40,520 Speaker 3: So we were thirteen or fourteen? 923 00:43:40,600 --> 00:43:42,200 Speaker 1: They went to fifteen, it went to fifteen. 924 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:45,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, you should look at this guy 925 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,640 Speaker 4: who's six' to one, you know, two hundred plus pounds 926 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 4: at the age of fourteen fifteen. 927 00:43:51,800 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 3: When you look at. 928 00:43:52,400 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 4: Jeweles and I and we're both still four ten one 929 00:43:54,719 --> 00:43:58,040 Speaker 4: hundred pounds, soaking wet, you know, little little guy like 930 00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 4: and so there was this one play. I think we 931 00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 4: were up by like two runs already, so they're getting 932 00:44:03,680 --> 00:44:06,839 Speaker 4: a little frustrated, and he hits a ground ball through 933 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:09,320 Speaker 4: the right side. And so, if you know baseball, what 934 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 4: happens is the first baseman tries to get the ball. 935 00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 4: Second base has to rotate to first to cover just 936 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:16,120 Speaker 4: in case you want to back to where I'm on, 937 00:44:16,320 --> 00:44:18,880 Speaker 4: you know, if he gets too far around. So instead 938 00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:20,840 Speaker 4: of him kind of running through the line, he just 939 00:44:21,640 --> 00:44:24,680 Speaker 4: plows right through me. I get blindsided, taken out, and 940 00:44:24,800 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 4: so I'm like in like a daze like cartoon, like, 941 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:29,719 Speaker 4: you know, I got dust all over me and I 942 00:44:29,840 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 4: sit up and I just see Julian sprinting full speed, 943 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:35,879 Speaker 4: just launch his full body into this guy. 944 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:37,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, through his glove. 945 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 5: It was like. 946 00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:44,920 Speaker 3: This guy's holding me like a little fucking ragdall like. 947 00:44:46,520 --> 00:44:50,080 Speaker 4: And you know that's the bounty, you know, pledge right 948 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:52,719 Speaker 4: there is like hey, like you get a med situation 949 00:44:53,400 --> 00:44:55,400 Speaker 4: and and you got your clean up right here, and 950 00:44:55,440 --> 00:44:56,400 Speaker 4: he came to clean up the. 951 00:44:56,440 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 2: Mess for me because you know that's what best friends do. 952 00:44:59,840 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 6: Back, like, fuck this dude, I don't sorry about you, 953 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 6: but yeah, yeah, oh yeah. Second baseline, you want to 954 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:14,040 Speaker 6: know how our bad news bears. So we make the playoffs. 955 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:16,280 Speaker 1: It's just another miss stitution. 956 00:45:18,200 --> 00:45:23,600 Speaker 3: Make playoffs, get to the finals, right, but it's like 957 00:45:23,680 --> 00:45:26,600 Speaker 3: a two game elimination. So we lost one game, I think, right, 958 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,480 Speaker 3: and so then we battled our way back to the 959 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:33,160 Speaker 3: finals to play the best team that everyone knew, the 960 00:45:33,160 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 3: best team. 961 00:45:33,840 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 1: We would have to win twice. 962 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,719 Speaker 3: We'd have to win twice.

So I jumped on a plane, flew 1263 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 1: out to New York and started cleaning out the old offices. 1264 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:33,200 Speaker 1: I was emptying all these boxes and and and sending 1265 00:59:33,240 --> 00:59:36,160 Speaker 1: ship to Vegas that I thought I needed to keep 1266 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:39,520 Speaker 1: from from the office, and I had a VCR because 1267 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 1: they had fucking tapes for days. I mean I must 1268 00:59:41,920 --> 00:59:44,160 Speaker 1: have watched two hundred and fifty three hundred tapes to 1269 00:59:44,240 --> 00:59:46,520 Speaker 1: make sure that it wasn't anything whatever. So I popped 1270 00:59:46,560 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 1: in this tape and there was this talk show, the 1271 00:59:49,720 --> 00:59:52,440 Speaker 1: Keenan Ivory Wayan Show, The Oldest Wayan brother had his 1272 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,880 Speaker 1: own talk show, and they had Joe Rogan on there, 1273 00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:57,400 Speaker 1: and Joe Rogan was talking about and I knew Joe 1274 00:59:57,480 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 1: Rogan from Fear Factor, you know, I would watch on 1275 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:03,600 Speaker 1: t and Joe Rogan was talking about how bad ass 1276 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 1: UFC fighters were and what they would really do to 1277 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:08,080 Speaker 1: some of these karate guys that were in movies and 1278 01:00:08,120 --> 01:00:10,240 Speaker 1: shit like that.

He's smart, he's funny, he's articulate. 1280 01:00:14,520 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 1: So I reached out to Rogan. At that time, I 1281 01:00:17,040 --> 01:00:18,919 Speaker 1: think it was on the internet, you know, I reached 1282 01:00:18,960 --> 01:00:21,720 Speaker 1: out to him.

So if you look at where the UFC 1285 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:29,760 Speaker 1: was at that time, you know, we were losing money 1286 01:00:29,840 --> 01:00:31,959 Speaker 1: like crazy. We bought it for two million, which sounds 1287 01:00:31,960 --> 01:00:33,920 Speaker 1: like a great story. Now we ended up being like 1288 01:00:33,960 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: almost forty million in the hole before we turned it around. 1289 01:00:37,800 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 1: But Joe Rogan did like the first twelve or thirteen 1290 01:00:40,040 --> 01:00:42,680 Speaker 1: shows for free. He said, fuck yeah, I'll come there 1291 01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:44,280 Speaker 1: and do it and sit in the best seats in 1292 01:00:44,320 --> 01:00:46,640 Speaker 1: the house and everything else.

Think 1332 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:43,400 Speaker 1: about where he came from. The business sense that this 1333 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 1: kid had is fascinating. And Connor McGregor, everybody always asked me, 1334 01:02:48,720 --> 01:02:50,800 Speaker 1: is he a nightmare of dealers? And know he's actually not. 1335 01:02:51,160 --> 01:02:54,440 Speaker 1: He's actually a really good partner and and he understands 1336 01:02:54,520 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 1: the business, and you know, he's actually been great to 1337 01:02:57,080 --> 01:02:59,200 Speaker 1: work with. So Connor is one of my all time favorite. 1338 01:02:59,280 --> 01:03:02,720 Speaker 1: Ronda Rousey probably the greatest that I've ever worked with. 1339 01:03:03,080 --> 01:03:06,240 Speaker 1: Anything you needed, whatever it was, Ronda was willing to 1340 01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:11,200 Speaker 1: do it. And you know, I have a really really 1341 01:03:11,440 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 1: incredible relationship with Chuck Ladell. Chuck Lidell one of my 1342 01:03:15,280 --> 01:03:19,840 Speaker 1: first big superstars, and you know, helped help bid the spot. 1343 01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,320 Speaker 1: And there's there's so many different people along the way, 1344 01:03:24,000 --> 01:03:27,080 Speaker 1: and I feel bad not saying everybody. I've worked with 1345 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:31,400 Speaker 1: lots of incredible people in my career. And then that 1346 01:03:31,480 --> 01:03:35,040 Speaker 1: doesn't include my staff, the woman sitting behind me, the 1347 01:03:35,120 --> 01:03:37,280 Speaker 1: only person in the world that I actually listened to 1348 01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:40,920 Speaker 1: and uh respect opinions from and and and many other 1349 01:03:40,960 --> 01:03:42,160 Speaker 1: people in our organization. 1350 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:44,080 Speaker 2: Top three fights of all time. 1351 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:51,760 Speaker 1: Jones Gustafson McGregor. Habib and I have to pick this 1352 01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:55,440 Speaker 1: one because you know, going into when we first started 1353 01:03:55,440 --> 01:03:58,880 Speaker 1: bringing women into the UFC, the backlash we got, how 1354 01:03:59,000 --> 01:04:01,400 Speaker 1: I said women would never fight in the UFC. The 1355 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:04,040 Speaker 1: list goes on. And on the night that Ronda Rosie 1356 01:04:04,080 --> 01:04:08,800 Speaker 1: fought Carmouche down in southern California, place was sold out. 1357 01:04:09,080 --> 01:04:11,480 Speaker 1: When Ronda walked out of the tunnel, the place fucking 1358 01:04:11,600 --> 01:04:13,880 Speaker 1: erupted and went crazy. And I stood around. I looked 1359 01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:16,320 Speaker 1: around and said, I made the right decision, and now 1360 01:04:16,400 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 1: look at where women's fighting is now.
