0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:03.360

0:00:03.440 --> 0:00:05.519
<v Speaker 1>all hell broke loose Irish guys.

0:00:05.240 --> 0:00:08.119
<v Speaker 2>And Russians and let's just say they're not drinking water.

0:00:08.320 --> 0:00:09.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, yeah, that was the problem for the All the

0:00:09.960 --> 0:00:12.960
<v Speaker 1>Irish guys were drunk and the Muslims were so oh

0:00:13.039 --> 0:00:13.600

<v Speaker 2>They'll mess with Russia.

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:31.040

<v Speaker 1>out half this country.

0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:33.519

<v Speaker 3>you're also from Vegas. Yeah, I don't know this story.

0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 1>So I bounced around a lot when I was a kid.

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:41.039
<v Speaker 1>You know, we grew up back there. They were paying

0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.120
<v Speaker 1>nurses more here than anywhere in the country, and like

0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:46.760
<v Speaker 1>the late seventies, and my mom moved me and my

0:05:46.800 --> 0:05:49.360
<v Speaker 1>sister out to Vegas. I was in fourth or fifth grade.

0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:53.040
<v Speaker 1>Stayed here till I was in high school, then went

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.960
<v Speaker 1>back to Boston after I graduated. Wow, then came back

0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:57.600
<v Speaker 1>here when I was twenty six. So I bounced back

0:05:57.640 --> 0:06:00.080
<v Speaker 1>and forth. Actually really lucky that I was able to

0:06:00.320 --> 0:06:03.640
<v Speaker 1>have that East coast West coast upbringing. Yeah, it was awesome.

0:06:03.800 --> 0:06:06.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and this is that was before Vegas was really.

0:06:07.520 --> 0:06:08.719
<v Speaker 1>Thousand people here when we moved.

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 3>It's it's really like the last five years everyone yeah,

0:06:12.200 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 3>left California came out here.

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:15.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean it's crazy.

0:06:15.320 --> 0:06:17.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, now that sports are here, it's turned into a

0:06:17.200 --> 0:06:20.159
<v Speaker 1>big sports town, and you know, I mean they're gonna

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:22.440
<v Speaker 1>have fucking ping pong here pretty soon. Man, I mean

0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 1>everything they do here slap. I literally just went to

0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:30.080
<v Speaker 1>slap slapped. I literally just went to the w NBA

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:33.360
<v Speaker 1>game a couple of nights ago at Mandelay Bay. There

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:36.760
<v Speaker 1>wasn't an empty seat in the house. The place was packed. Crazy.

0:06:36.760 --> 0:06:40.280
<v Speaker 3>The champ champs, Brady owns them exactly what's their name?

0:06:40.320 --> 0:06:42.600

<v Speaker 3>You own us one of their their stars. I gotta

0:06:49.360 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 3>look that one up.

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:51.240
<v Speaker 2>You gotta look that up. I saw that.

0:06:51.560 --> 0:06:55.480
<v Speaker 3>Welcome to games with names And uh, today we're talking

0:06:55.520 --> 0:07:01.599
<v Speaker 3>about the Kabebe McGregor UFC to twenty nine fight.

0:07:02.440 --> 0:07:03.760
<v Speaker 2>It's a pretty crazy fight.

0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Awesome fight, big one that was a big one for us.

0:07:06.000 --> 0:07:10.600
<v Speaker 1>And uh, obviously a ton of animosity between those two

0:07:10.640 --> 0:07:16.720
<v Speaker 1>going in, a ton of animosity between Habib and Connor's cornerman,

0:07:16.920 --> 0:07:19.119
<v Speaker 1>and it was just, yeah, it was it was crazy.

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:22.760
<v Speaker 3>At this point, McGregor, he was at like the high

0:07:22.760 --> 0:07:25.360
<v Speaker 3>of the high. He was probably the most famous athlete

0:07:25.360 --> 0:07:26.040
<v Speaker 3>on the planet one.

0:07:25.960 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 1>Hundred and you know, and Habib at the time too,

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>you know. And and when you think about the Muslim world,

0:07:32.280 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean, over a billion world wide.

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:36.320
<v Speaker 1>It might even be two billion now for all I know,

0:07:36.440 --> 0:07:39.640
<v Speaker 1>but you know, and he was like the first Muslim

0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:41.600
<v Speaker 1>world champion in the UF.

0:07:41.440 --> 0:07:44.120
<v Speaker 3>State stud and it was it was crazy that like

0:07:44.200 --> 0:07:50.240
<v Speaker 3>I remember this fight and all the hooplah, before the hype,

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.680
<v Speaker 3>before you know, the guy's throwing you know, McGregor throws

0:07:53.720 --> 0:07:59.120
<v Speaker 3>the dolly through the bus. Like when you're putting toad

0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:02.920
<v Speaker 3>out of these fights, there's like a there's like a

0:08:03.120 --> 0:08:05.960
<v Speaker 3>probably like a meter of where you love that kind

0:08:06.000 --> 0:08:08.720
<v Speaker 3>of shit because it's building the fight, and there's a

0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:11.000
<v Speaker 3>meter where you have to kind of step in and say, hey, boys,

0:08:11.160 --> 0:08:12.040
<v Speaker 3>like how does that work.

0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 1>We're at a point now where we don't need the

0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:15.880
<v Speaker 1>craziness to build a fight, you know what I mean.

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:19.480
<v Speaker 1>What we need are it's just a matchup itself. The

0:08:19.480 --> 0:08:21.080
<v Speaker 1>fact that these are two of the best in the world.

0:08:21.240 --> 0:08:23.320
<v Speaker 1>And people think that I love that stuff, but I

0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:26.120
<v Speaker 1>don't because what happens is we're regulated by the government

0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:30.000
<v Speaker 1>bas the Athletic Commission is is the government, and yeah,

0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:34.080
<v Speaker 1>they they don't like that shit, so it's bad when

0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:37.080
<v Speaker 1>it happens. And you know, one of the things that

0:08:37.120 --> 0:08:40.120
<v Speaker 1>I got criticized about by the media is when we

0:08:40.120 --> 0:08:42.680
<v Speaker 1>were promoting the fight, I promoted the whole thing that

0:08:42.760 --> 0:08:46.880
<v Speaker 1>happened uh in Brooklyn with the bus. But but it's

0:08:46.920 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>part of the story. Yeah, you know what I mean exactly.

0:08:49.240 --> 0:08:50.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't give a shit. It's part of the story.

0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.320
<v Speaker 1>We told the story the way that it unfolded and

0:08:53.360 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 1>how it played out, and you know, obviously it was

0:08:55.559 --> 0:08:58.360
<v Speaker 1>a big fight, lots of animosity and uh, you know,

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 1>we were ready for what happened after, but we didn't. Uh,

0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:05.400
<v Speaker 1>we didn't execute perfectly the way that we should have.

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:08.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, Habib got over the cage, jumped into his

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:12.280
<v Speaker 1>corner and and then all you know, all hell broke loose. It.

0:09:13.160 --> 0:09:14.199
<v Speaker 2>Did anyone get arrested?

0:09:14.440 --> 0:09:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't think anybody got arrested.

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.760
<v Speaker 3>Uh, you know, if I'm if the if these questions

0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 3>are too much.

0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:22.199
<v Speaker 1>We actually no, no, we actually got it contained pretty quickly.

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.560
<v Speaker 1>We were expecting it. We expected to happen. If you

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:26.920
<v Speaker 1>look the guys that were inside the octagon when Habib

0:09:27.000 --> 0:09:30.240
<v Speaker 1>jumps over. The guy is like just missus grabbing him

0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:32.720
<v Speaker 1>and he gets over the cage and into the corner.

0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:35.959
<v Speaker 1>But no, we were anticipating it. We got it under

0:09:36.200 --> 0:09:39.880
<v Speaker 1>control pretty quick. Nobody got hurt. The problem was after

0:09:40.000 --> 0:09:43.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, you had uh, you know, Irish guys and

0:09:43.880 --> 0:09:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Russian and Russian guys fighting out in the and.

0:09:46.160 --> 0:09:48.679
<v Speaker 2>Let's just say they're not drinking waters.

0:09:48.760 --> 0:09:52.240
<v Speaker 1>Well yeah, well the problem all the Irish guys were

0:09:52.280 --> 0:09:53.640
<v Speaker 1>drunk and the Muslims were sober.

0:09:54.360 --> 0:10:00.960
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, no knowing about it. So is this

0:10:01.320 --> 0:10:03.920
<v Speaker 3>is this at this point going into this fight, at

0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:07.040
<v Speaker 3>this point of the UFC, Was this the greatest fight

0:10:07.640 --> 0:10:08.359
<v Speaker 3>you think.

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:12.360
<v Speaker 1>Greatest fighting Vegas, the big Vegas. Yeah, I mean we've

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:14.800
<v Speaker 1>had so many great fights. We talk about a great

0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.000
<v Speaker 1>fight with a great fight means we've had tons of

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:18.319
<v Speaker 1>great fights. This is one of the biggest, one of

0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:19.160
<v Speaker 1>the biggest fights ever.

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:20.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was definitely.

0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:23.560
<v Speaker 3>It was like, and I wasn't big in the fight

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:27.240
<v Speaker 3>game or anything, but it was like I watched this

0:10:27.240 --> 0:10:31.560
<v Speaker 3>this guy from Russia, Kabib or Kabib, and the guy's

0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:32.800
<v Speaker 3>wrestling bears when he's a kid.

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and you got.

0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>This, he's a freak athlete man, and he's a he's

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.319
<v Speaker 1>a badass dude. It's always talk about, like we talk

0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 1>about the pussies that are in this country right now

0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:45.960
<v Speaker 1>with the ones that are going on and everything. But

0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, we talk about, you know, how Bibe's crew

0:10:48.960 --> 0:10:50.720
<v Speaker 1>could come in here and probably wipe out half this

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:53.800
<v Speaker 1>country on their own. These dudes are so tough and

0:10:53.880 --> 0:10:59.600
<v Speaker 1>nasty and come from such a tough upbringing, like fucking men. Yeah,

0:10:59.640 --> 0:11:03.200
<v Speaker 1>we talk about men. These dudes are like nasty dudes.

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:06.120
<v Speaker 2>Don't mess with Russians. That's that's a that's a keynote.

0:11:05.800 --> 0:11:10.760
<v Speaker 3>To Dagenstan Oh my god, exactly any of the anything.

0:11:12.000 --> 0:11:13.119
<v Speaker 1>Stay away from.

0:11:14.120 --> 0:11:16.360
<v Speaker 3>Can you can you can you walk us through the

0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:18.840
<v Speaker 3>origin of you taking over the UFC.

0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so, uh, back in the day, you know, I

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:25.720
<v Speaker 1>was involved in boxing, very minor level, you know, uh

0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.600
<v Speaker 1>trained guys and all that kind of stuff. The biggest

0:11:28.600 --> 0:11:30.120
<v Speaker 1>thing I ever did was I got a local kid

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.920
<v Speaker 1>here a fight with Roy Jones Junior back in the day,

0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:40.400
<v Speaker 1>and I started to uh take jiu jitsu with with

0:11:40.440 --> 0:11:43.040
<v Speaker 1>my friends, the for Tita brothers. They own station casinos

0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:47.560
<v Speaker 1>here in Vegas, and uh, through that, we fell in

0:11:47.600 --> 0:11:50.040
<v Speaker 1>love with with with the sport, and we started to

0:11:50.040 --> 0:11:52.240
<v Speaker 1>meet a lot of the athletes and I started to

0:11:52.280 --> 0:11:55.720
<v Speaker 1>manage Chuck Ladell and Tito Ortiz. I got into a

0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.880
<v Speaker 1>contract dispute with the old owner of the UFC. His

0:11:57.920 --> 0:12:00.760
<v Speaker 1>name is Bob Myerwitz out of New York, and he

0:12:00.760 --> 0:12:03.880
<v Speaker 1>flipped out on me one day and said, you know what,

0:12:04.120 --> 0:12:06.600
<v Speaker 1>there is no more money left. We might not have

0:12:06.720 --> 0:12:09.360
<v Speaker 1>enough money to do the next event. So I was like,

0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:10.960
<v Speaker 1>we hung up the phone. I was like, oh shit.

0:12:11.040 --> 0:12:13.280
<v Speaker 1>So I literally hung up and called the Ftitas and said,

0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I think the UFC is going out of business. I

0:12:16.240 --> 0:12:17.800
<v Speaker 1>think we could buy it, and I think we should.

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:22.160
<v Speaker 1>So Lorenzo went into negotiations with with Myerwitz and a

0:12:22.200 --> 0:12:24.600
<v Speaker 1>couple months later we owned the UFCA for two million dollars.

0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:27.920
<v Speaker 3>God damn, how many two million bucks?

0:12:27.960 --> 0:12:28.520
<v Speaker 1>Two million?

0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:30.839
<v Speaker 2>What are they worth now? You guys were how well?

0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:34.120
<v Speaker 1>We sold it back in twenty sixteen for a four

0:12:34.160 --> 0:12:37.480
<v Speaker 1>point two five billion and now it's worth twelve.

0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Is the UFC right now where your original vision?

0:12:41.400 --> 0:12:41.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:12:42.040 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Was there's still that point? Or are you still think

0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:44.840
<v Speaker 2>it could easy?

0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:47.080
<v Speaker 1>I still have a ton of vision for it that

0:12:47.120 --> 0:12:49.600
<v Speaker 1>we're still working on. A lot of things that you know,

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:52.000
<v Speaker 1>I was dreaming about back in two thousand and one.

0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:53.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's it's crazy.

0:12:53.640 --> 0:12:56.880
<v Speaker 3>You guys handled it like almost like the NFL thanks

0:12:57.440 --> 0:13:01.079
<v Speaker 3>as far as like just the professional is them, and

0:13:01.200 --> 0:13:05.360
<v Speaker 3>like how you guys handle all the deals with the

0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:10.200
<v Speaker 3>sponsors and all the guys have their like everyone has

0:13:10.240 --> 0:13:11.160
<v Speaker 3>to wear Rebok, right.

0:13:11.480 --> 0:13:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, the Reebok deals over now. Yeah, we're the company

0:13:14.360 --> 0:13:15.000
<v Speaker 1>called Venom now.

0:13:15.000 --> 0:13:18.560
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, or even that, I mean, that's very Look

0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:24.280
<v Speaker 3>that's Richie and Cognito. We won't Hey, no bully, no

0:13:24.400 --> 0:13:32.080
<v Speaker 3>bullying dudes. Richie Cognito, that dude has some of the

0:13:32.080 --> 0:13:34.319
<v Speaker 3>best feet. We used to work out together right when

0:13:34.360 --> 0:13:36.760
<v Speaker 3>all that ship was going down about the bullying in Miami.

0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 5>He's definitely a bully. But you gotta have a bully

0:13:39.320 --> 0:13:40.880
<v Speaker 5>on team. You gotta have a bully.

0:13:41.480 --> 0:13:42.880
<v Speaker 1>There's a bully. There's bullies everywhere.

0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:43.880
<v Speaker 2>You need that asshole.

0:13:43.960 --> 0:13:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Bullies are everywhere, But you gotta deal with bully.

0:13:46.720 --> 0:13:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Especially on the offensive line. You want to fucking.

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:51.839
<v Speaker 3>Bully on the offensive line. But I mean, that guy

0:13:51.920 --> 0:13:54.959
<v Speaker 3>used to have crazy, but that's crazy now. You grew

0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:59.880
<v Speaker 3>up in Boston and Vegas. Now you're a Boston fan. Yeah,

0:14:00.280 --> 0:14:01.679
<v Speaker 3>of all of Boston sports.

0:14:01.800 --> 0:14:04.679
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, yeah, tell yes, yes, yes, I'm Boston. I'm

0:14:04.679 --> 0:14:06.959
<v Speaker 1>still a Boston guy. I live in Vegas, but I'm

0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:10.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm Patriots, Celtics, Red Sox. I'm not a big

0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.360
<v Speaker 1>hockey fan, but we're going with the Bruins.

0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:14:12.920 --> 0:14:16.440
<v Speaker 3>Are you any kids stories of you going to any

0:14:16.480 --> 0:14:17.360
<v Speaker 3>games or anything?

0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Or you didn't know that kind of money to really

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:20.840
<v Speaker 1>go to games. I went to a couple of baseball

0:14:20.880 --> 0:14:23.120
<v Speaker 1>games when I was young, but I didn't really start

0:14:23.160 --> 0:14:26.080
<v Speaker 1>going to Celtics games until I, you know, started making money. Yes,

0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:28.720
<v Speaker 1>and Patriots, and you know, I was at the I

0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:31.440
<v Speaker 1>was at the Super Bowl when you guys came back

0:14:31.480 --> 0:14:33.280
<v Speaker 1>in Atlanta and won the won the Super Bowl. That

0:14:33.360 --> 0:14:36.160
<v Speaker 1>night was incredible, What an incredible experience. First of all,

0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:38.440
<v Speaker 1>I tell Brady this all the time. I'm gonna tell

0:14:38.480 --> 0:14:42.520
<v Speaker 1>you now. You gave me and my family twenty of

0:14:42.560 --> 0:14:44.800
<v Speaker 1>the best years of our life. Man, just the Patriots

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:48.080
<v Speaker 1>run that every Sunday. I stayed home and I watched

0:14:48.120 --> 0:14:50.320
<v Speaker 1>all the games. My kids grew up, we grew up

0:14:50.360 --> 0:14:52.000
<v Speaker 1>in you know, born and raised in Vegas, but they

0:14:52.000 --> 0:14:55.640
<v Speaker 1>grew up Patriots fans and just what an amazing uh,

0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:58.560
<v Speaker 1>what an amazing experience, an amazing time during your run

0:14:58.600 --> 0:15:00.840
<v Speaker 1>at the at New England was in credible.

0:15:00.520 --> 0:15:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Yeah it was, it was. It was a hell over run.

0:15:03.280 --> 0:15:06.240
<v Speaker 3>But you know in Vegas, now, how about Vegas having

0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:08.440
<v Speaker 3>all these sports teams. That's pretty fucking badass.

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:12.160
<v Speaker 1>It should have been this. This is by design, this

0:15:12.280 --> 0:15:15.520
<v Speaker 1>is the entertainment capital of the world. By design, this

0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:17.640
<v Speaker 1>is a sports town. You know, the gaming thing was

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:20.440
<v Speaker 1>just always you know, a big problem for people. Now

0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.960
<v Speaker 1>that they figured out the gaming side, this is without

0:15:22.960 --> 0:15:24.840
<v Speaker 1>a doubt gonna be one of the biggest and best

0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:25.600
<v Speaker 1>sports towns.

0:15:25.760 --> 0:15:26.440
<v Speaker 3>How are the world?

0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:27.400
<v Speaker 2>How are the like?

0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 3>Are the locals of Vegas? Are they like becoming Raiders? Like?

0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:32.920
<v Speaker 2>Are they Raiders fans?

0:15:33.040 --> 0:15:36.160
<v Speaker 3>Or is it because anytime you see away team come

0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:39.080
<v Speaker 3>and play the Raiders, a lot of the fan base

0:15:39.120 --> 0:15:42.000
<v Speaker 3>in that stadium is usually you know, you know.

0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, it makes sense when you think about the brilliance

0:15:44.000 --> 0:15:45.840
<v Speaker 1>of it. If you're gonna go to an away game,

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:47.400
<v Speaker 1>you want to go to Vegas. You're going to Vegas

0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:51.480
<v Speaker 1>your boys, right, It's it's it's a no brainer. But yeah,

0:15:51.480 --> 0:15:55.120
<v Speaker 1>I mean the locals that live here have embraced the

0:15:55.160 --> 0:15:58.400
<v Speaker 1>teams like, for instance, the Golden Knights. Huge, man, I mean,

0:15:58.440 --> 0:16:01.360
<v Speaker 1>it's huge here in Las Vegas. Ever everybody, and what

0:16:01.400 --> 0:16:03.680
<v Speaker 1>was funny is in the beginning, I had an opportunity

0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:06.160
<v Speaker 1>to invest in the Golden Knights. I'm like, hockey in Vegas,

0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:08.160
<v Speaker 1>that's ridiculous. But I was way off on that one.

0:16:08.160 --> 0:16:08.320
<v Speaker 3>Man.

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>It is huge here. But now you drive on the

0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:15.120
<v Speaker 1>freeways here you see the Golden Knights license plates, the Raiders'

0:16:15.120 --> 0:16:17.920
<v Speaker 1>license plates, and yeah, it's it's a big sports now.

0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:20.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean every sport. They're gonna have fucking ping pong

0:16:20.680 --> 0:16:22.560
<v Speaker 1>team here pretty soon. I mean, every sport in the

0:16:22.560 --> 0:16:23.840
<v Speaker 1>world is coming to Vegas.

0:16:23.720 --> 0:16:26.400
<v Speaker 3>It's hard not to capitalize on it. If you're a

0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:27.400
<v Speaker 3>professional league.

0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:28.320
<v Speaker 1>Yep, you know.

0:16:28.400 --> 0:16:31.360
<v Speaker 3>I mean, it's it's a slam dunk. Now that the

0:16:31.400 --> 0:16:34.440
<v Speaker 3>teams have actually done it, I agree, it's been insane.

0:16:35.880 --> 0:16:39.080
<v Speaker 3>Vegas is a sports city versus Boston is sports city, easy.

0:16:38.880 --> 0:16:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Right, I mean, listen, the one thing that Vegas doesn't

0:16:42.360 --> 0:16:44.680
<v Speaker 1>have is the history, you know what I mean, in

0:16:44.680 --> 0:16:47.240
<v Speaker 1>the tradition, we're going to build the history here, you know,

0:16:47.280 --> 0:16:49.840
<v Speaker 1>over the next thirty years. But Boston has such a

0:16:49.880 --> 0:16:54.440
<v Speaker 1>great history of sports. You know, it's like Boston, New York, Philly, Chicago.

0:16:55.480 --> 0:16:57.600
<v Speaker 1>It's a you know, we don't have that yet, but

0:16:57.680 --> 0:16:59.400
<v Speaker 1>this is the place to come if you want to

0:16:59.440 --> 0:17:00.320
<v Speaker 1>go to an away game.

0:17:00.520 --> 0:17:03.880

0:17:08.760 --> 0:17:10.439
<v Speaker 3>still they still got some money out here. You know,

0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:14.239
<v Speaker 3>as far as loving equity of sport. Can you give

0:17:14.320 --> 0:17:15.760
<v Speaker 3>us the origin of fuck it Friday?

0:17:16.160 --> 0:17:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? So I started to uh, I like food and

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:24.000
<v Speaker 1>uh we ate. We put together this thing. One day

0:17:24.119 --> 0:17:27.840
<v Speaker 1>was when Popeyes Chicken Sandwiches came out. I was like

0:17:28.320 --> 0:17:30.400
<v Speaker 1>one of the crackheads that was running down there getting pop.

0:17:30.359 --> 0:17:31.479
<v Speaker 2>Pipes, were fighting over that.

0:17:31.680 --> 0:17:34.240
<v Speaker 1>It was insane. I'm not shoitting you. This happened. I

0:17:34.240 --> 0:17:37.520
<v Speaker 1>had a guy that worked at Popeyes. He was he

0:17:37.640 --> 0:17:39.560
<v Speaker 1>was talking him out the back door to us. We

0:17:39.560 --> 0:17:41.360
<v Speaker 1>were paying him. He was putting them out the back

0:17:41.359 --> 0:17:43.760
<v Speaker 1>door because they were literally running out there were big lines.

0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:45.880
<v Speaker 1>I got a guy kicking them out the back door

0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:49.280
<v Speaker 1>for me for some money. So we ended up taking

0:17:49.840 --> 0:17:52.000
<v Speaker 1>uh one of the Popeyes Chicken sandwiches and making a

0:17:52.040 --> 0:17:54.919
<v Speaker 1>sandwich with Krispy Kreme donuts, so the donuts with the

0:17:54.960 --> 0:17:56.919
<v Speaker 1>bread and the and the Popeyes chicken. And that was

0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:59.280
<v Speaker 1>how fucking Friday began. I ate it. It was awesome

0:17:59.320 --> 0:18:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and and uh that started the whole thing.

0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:03.639
<v Speaker 2>And it all takes place at the UFC headquarters.

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:05.560
<v Speaker 1>It's one of the biggest things I do on social media.

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I watch it every time I post that just on

0:18:08.200 --> 0:18:10.600

<v Speaker 1>Pizza reviews kill it.

0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:22.040
<v Speaker 3>What NFL player you think could come into the cage

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:23.920
<v Speaker 3>and be well and do well?

0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, it's interesting because a lot of NFL.

0:18:26.119 --> 0:18:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Players Harden, right, Harden did it?

0:18:28.440 --> 0:18:29.800
<v Speaker 3>Greg Hardy?

0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.440
<v Speaker 1>Greg Hardy? Yeah, a lot of Uh, there's been a

0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:37.359
<v Speaker 1>lot of crossover. We've had college players and NFL players

0:18:37.760 --> 0:18:39.679
<v Speaker 1>come in and and and and do well. Yeah, you

0:18:39.680 --> 0:18:43.440
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. You're talking about big, explosive, powerful

0:18:43.520 --> 0:18:46.560
<v Speaker 1>athletic guys who don't mind getting hit.

0:18:46.720 --> 0:18:49.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's it's it's it's a different thing. Like we

0:18:49.840 --> 0:18:53.199
<v Speaker 3>were talking before we hopped on, I started taking up

0:18:53.280 --> 0:18:56.840
<v Speaker 3>box and it's so different if you're not like I

0:18:56.880 --> 0:19:00.680
<v Speaker 3>couldn't imagine going and fighting a guy like a Habibe

0:19:00.760 --> 0:19:02.480
<v Speaker 3>or some guy that's been doing this since he was

0:19:02.480 --> 0:19:03.280
<v Speaker 3>two years old.

0:19:03.119 --> 0:19:05.080
<v Speaker 1>Right, I mean I got like different though. But look

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:08.800
<v Speaker 1>at the athlete for your size. Look at the success

0:19:08.880 --> 0:19:11.800
<v Speaker 1>you had in the NFL. Now imagine if at your

0:19:11.800 --> 0:19:14.200
<v Speaker 1>age when you started playing football, you started training the

0:19:14.240 --> 0:19:17.560
<v Speaker 1>mixed martial arts, you would have done something you absolutely

0:19:17.600 --> 0:19:20.119
<v Speaker 1>positively would have been somebody in the sport. You know,

0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:23.960
<v Speaker 1>Ovid Saint Prue. Who do you play for Tennessee? Ovid

0:19:23.960 --> 0:19:28.320
<v Speaker 1>Saint Prue osp Yeah, he played for Tennessee. He was

0:19:28.320 --> 0:19:30.520
<v Speaker 1>a good player at Tennessee. He actually did really well

0:19:30.520 --> 0:19:33.160
<v Speaker 1>and has been in the UFC for like ten years. Wow. Yeah,

0:19:33.280 --> 0:19:38.200
<v Speaker 1>football player, man. The football players are as far as

0:19:38.240 --> 0:19:42.920
<v Speaker 1>physical attributes. And you could be the greatest physical specimen

0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:45.800
<v Speaker 1>of all time. And you know this better than anybody.

0:19:46.040 --> 0:19:47.160
<v Speaker 1>You have to like to get hit.

0:19:47.560 --> 0:19:49.960
<v Speaker 3>Everyone's got a plan until you get hit in the face,

0:19:50.000 --> 0:19:52.600
<v Speaker 3>as Mason said.

0:19:51.960 --> 0:19:54.320
<v Speaker 1>And you were one of these fast, small guys cutting

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:59.080
<v Speaker 1>across the middle, wide open with linebackers that were three

0:19:59.200 --> 0:20:03.520
<v Speaker 1>times your side hitting you. Yeah, and uh, so you know,

0:20:04.119 --> 0:20:06.840
<v Speaker 1>I think you would have done damn well in the UFC.

0:20:10.600 --> 0:20:12.119
<v Speaker 3>So we have a segment where we like to go

0:20:12.240 --> 0:20:15.160
<v Speaker 3>back in the date and go over pop culture. So

0:20:15.240 --> 0:20:18.000
<v Speaker 3>this date was October sixth, twenty eighteen.

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:20.399
<v Speaker 2>Number one movie Venom. Do you see that Venom?

0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:21.000
<v Speaker 1>I did? Yeah?

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 3>Did you like it?

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:23.720
<v Speaker 2>I didn't want to. I'm hardy.

0:20:23.960 --> 0:20:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I didn't love it. It wasn't my favor.

0:20:26.160 --> 0:20:27.560
<v Speaker 2>You know, you didn't live up to the hype.

0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:30.920
<v Speaker 1>Well, the whole uh comic book thing has gone through

0:20:30.920 --> 0:20:33.480
<v Speaker 1>the roof, so yeah, yeah, but in a different way

0:20:33.800 --> 0:20:37.960
<v Speaker 1>different Some of those movies I can't man won best

<v Speaker 1>Spider Man's are good. Yep, exactly.

0:20:46.600 --> 0:20:48.040
<v Speaker 2>I started doing them all the time.

0:20:48.320 --> 0:20:51.280
<v Speaker 1>The first Dark Knight I liked, uh.

0:20:51.760 --> 0:20:54.960
<v Speaker 3>The Christopher Nolan Batman's Yeah, those are the best. I

0:20:54.960 --> 0:20:56.560
<v Speaker 3>think those are the best. I agree to hear that

0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:58.800
<v Speaker 3>he's about to do the James Bond I heard. I

0:20:58.920 --> 0:21:02.000
<v Speaker 3>heard that talks. I like that. Christopher nolanly Got who

<v Speaker 3>directed those dar nineteen might be doing.

0:21:03.680 --> 0:21:06.879
<v Speaker 1>The first X men really goes really good. Yep.

0:21:07.640 --> 0:21:11.679
<v Speaker 3>And around this time October four, Tom Brady becomes a

0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:16.399
<v Speaker 3>third NFL quarterback to record five hundred career touchdown in

0:21:16.440 --> 0:21:19.080
<v Speaker 3>a thirty eight to twenty four win over the Colts.

0:21:19.160 --> 0:21:21.440
<v Speaker 1>Couldn't happen to a better guy on a better.

0:21:21.200 --> 0:21:23.720
<v Speaker 2>Team against a shittier team.

0:21:23.840 --> 0:21:26.120
<v Speaker 5>We love talking smack about the Colts. So anything bad

0:21:26.119 --> 0:21:27.600
<v Speaker 5>you gotta say about the Colt.

0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:29.480
<v Speaker 1>You know what, I bet you know it's funny And

0:21:29.520 --> 0:21:32.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna I'm in a very odd place now because

0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Dalton Kincaid played football with my son and kind of

0:21:36.000 --> 0:21:39.160
<v Speaker 1>grew up with my son and now he's a Buffalo bill.

0:21:39.320 --> 0:21:41.480
<v Speaker 1>All the places he ends up is a Buffalo Bill,

0:21:41.680 --> 0:21:44.399
<v Speaker 1>so all all, obviously we're rooting for him and we

0:21:44.440 --> 0:21:49.080
<v Speaker 1>love him. But another one, Puka Nakua grew up so

0:21:49.200 --> 0:21:52.160
<v Speaker 1>I funded the team that he played on with my kids.

0:21:52.160 --> 0:21:52.840
<v Speaker 2>He's from Vegas.

0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:54.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, he's a Vegas kid. He grew up with

0:21:54.720 --> 0:21:57.680
<v Speaker 1>my kids since they were this big, and so we're

0:21:57.680 --> 0:22:00.320
<v Speaker 1>really proud of him. We're obviously proud of Dalton, and

0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:03.840
<v Speaker 1>it's and it is impossible to not love the quarterback

0:22:04.240 --> 0:22:07.919
<v Speaker 1>of the Buffalo Bills. I fucking love him. Man. He

0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:09.240
<v Speaker 1>is an absolute stud.

0:22:09.920 --> 0:22:11.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he's he's a stud.

0:22:11.640 --> 0:22:13.760
<v Speaker 2>He it's a Buffalo Bills, like.

0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:17.639
<v Speaker 1>Dude, every time we play them. Even when when you

0:22:17.680 --> 0:22:20.320
<v Speaker 1>guys were dominant and good, the Buffalo Bills were always

0:22:20.320 --> 0:22:23.280
<v Speaker 1>a problem. They were always tough to play, and but

0:22:23.359 --> 0:22:25.720
<v Speaker 1>they were they were front runners. They never they never

0:22:25.840 --> 0:22:27.919
<v Speaker 1>got to the you know, they.

0:22:27.760 --> 0:22:32.200
<v Speaker 2>Spent twenty years trying to design a team to beat us.

0:22:32.359 --> 0:22:34.960
<v Speaker 3>And anytime he play in that division, regardless of records

0:22:35.040 --> 0:22:37.679
<v Speaker 3>or anything, it's always a super tough game because you

0:22:37.680 --> 0:22:39.360
<v Speaker 3>see him twice a year. You guys see him twice

0:22:39.359 --> 0:22:42.200
<v Speaker 3>a year, every year, every time we played Buffalo, even.

0:22:42.080 --> 0:22:44.479
<v Speaker 1>When we don't know you'd end up in the you know,

0:22:44.640 --> 0:22:45.600
<v Speaker 1>I just I like to.

0:22:45.680 --> 0:22:47.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, I think of it like this, you know,

0:22:47.359 --> 0:22:49.639
<v Speaker 3>like when we were we were the big brother of

0:22:49.680 --> 0:22:52.359
<v Speaker 3>the division absolutely for twenty years.

0:22:52.520 --> 0:22:53.560
<v Speaker 2>Right now it's probably best.

0:22:53.640 --> 0:22:55.800
<v Speaker 1>Well, the champs. You guys were the champs all those years,

0:22:55.840 --> 0:22:58.920
<v Speaker 1>no matter what, even when you know we didn't win

0:22:58.960 --> 0:23:01.639
<v Speaker 1>the championship, you got were champs and you were the

0:23:01.680 --> 0:23:02.000
<v Speaker 1>team to.

0:23:02.000 --> 0:23:06.280
<v Speaker 3>Beat, exactly, and right now, Buffalo's probably the older brother

0:23:06.359 --> 0:23:08.119
<v Speaker 3>of the Vision, right now. But it's kind of like

0:23:08.240 --> 0:23:11.120
<v Speaker 3>I tell the Buffalo fans, which I'm always around Buffalo fans,

0:23:11.119 --> 0:23:13.800
<v Speaker 3>and they're awesome fans, but I tell them like, at

0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:15.840
<v Speaker 3>least when we were the big like the big brother

0:23:15.920 --> 0:23:18.159
<v Speaker 3>of the division, we go out in the block and

0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:20.120
<v Speaker 3>beat the shit out of everyone else. Now our older

0:23:20.160 --> 0:23:21.960
<v Speaker 3>brother is getting his ass beat every time he goes

0:23:22.000 --> 0:23:24.240
<v Speaker 3>out and tries to fight other people. Right, you know,

0:23:24.320 --> 0:23:26.119
<v Speaker 3>it's like, what's going on, Buffalo.

0:23:26.240 --> 0:23:27.000
<v Speaker 2>We got to get on this.

0:23:27.400 --> 0:23:29.160
<v Speaker 1>But you are right when you think about the fans

0:23:29.160 --> 0:23:31.440
<v Speaker 1>of Buffalo, talk about people who have been First of all,

0:23:31.760 --> 0:23:33.919
<v Speaker 1>you got to go out and watch your team in

0:23:33.960 --> 0:23:38.280
<v Speaker 1>the nastiest fucking weather of all time. Okay, the nastiest

0:23:38.280 --> 0:23:41.840
<v Speaker 1>weather other than the Packers, you know what I mean,

0:23:42.359 --> 0:23:45.760
<v Speaker 1>other than the Packers, the nastiest weather ever. Your team

0:23:46.240 --> 0:23:49.840
<v Speaker 1>is always the bride's maiden of the bride. They never

0:23:49.920 --> 0:23:53.840
<v Speaker 1>make it. And every year, you guys, God bless all

0:23:53.880 --> 0:23:56.200

0:23:58.280 --> 0:24:00.720
<v Speaker 1>our year. They love their felt now you're here.

0:24:00.800 --> 0:24:02.920
<v Speaker 3>They love that. I respect the shit out of those fans.

0:24:02.920 --> 0:24:05.200
<v Speaker 3>I've never been flipped up so many times, and it's

0:24:05.320 --> 0:24:07.240
<v Speaker 3>by so many different age groups. I've talked about it

0:24:07.240 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 3>on the pod so many times. I mean three year

0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:11.280
<v Speaker 3>olds to ninety year olds slipping you off when you're

0:24:11.640 --> 0:24:12.160
<v Speaker 3>leaving all.

0:24:12.760 --> 0:24:15.920
<v Speaker 1>You know who else. It's true. I love Buffalo fan

0:24:15.960 --> 0:24:19.919
<v Speaker 1>I love their passion. I love especially the Celtics. And

0:24:19.960 --> 0:24:23.639
<v Speaker 1>we go into Philly, right, Philly, so I would go

0:24:23.640 --> 0:24:26.680
<v Speaker 1>to these big you know, the Philly versus the Celtics,

0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:29.400
<v Speaker 1>and we're getting into the playoffs and I come walking

0:24:29.440 --> 0:24:31.760
<v Speaker 1>in and I wear my Celtics care and stuff. Boo,

<v Speaker 1>They're yelling at me. You got some balls wearing that.

0:24:34.320 --> 0:24:37.359
<v Speaker 1>UFC sucks. You know. They're all fucking yelling at me

0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:40.479
<v Speaker 1>the whole time that I'm there. And God, God, if

0:24:40.520 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 1>we can walk out of that arena that night with

0:24:42.320 --> 0:24:44.680
<v Speaker 1>a win, man, it is the best feeling in the world.

0:24:44.760 --> 0:24:48.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, it's just I love the rivalry between Philly

0:24:48.480 --> 0:24:49.800
<v Speaker 1>and Boston. It's so fun.

0:24:49.840 --> 0:24:52.640
<v Speaker 2>They're very similar cities, so true. You know what I mean.

0:24:52.720 --> 0:24:56.280
<v Speaker 1>Well, you got New York Philly and then you got Buffalo.

0:24:56.480 --> 0:24:58.480
<v Speaker 1>So those three rivalries are so fun.

0:24:58.520 --> 0:25:02.639
<v Speaker 3>They are East Coast cold weather people, tough people, blue

0:25:02.680 --> 0:25:05.639
<v Speaker 3>collar people, throwing batteries at Santa.

0:25:05.640 --> 0:25:08.200
<v Speaker 2>If you're in it, I mean, it's crazy.

0:25:08.119 --> 0:25:10.719
<v Speaker 1>And tons of sports history, tons of history.

0:25:11.160 --> 0:25:13.040
<v Speaker 3>You grew up with Pooka Nakoud. Did you ever think

0:25:13.080 --> 0:25:14.160
<v Speaker 3>that this kid would my kids?

0:25:14.200 --> 0:25:15.359
<v Speaker 1>Did? My kids grew up with Pooka?

0:25:15.480 --> 0:25:18.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I mean, was he grew up in our house?

0:25:18.920 --> 0:25:19.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:25:19.560 --> 0:25:21.479
<v Speaker 3>Was? He was? He balling, balling.

0:25:21.800 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 1>So when we used to fund a team, me and

0:25:23.800 --> 0:25:26.639
<v Speaker 1>Lorenzo used to fund a team called the Little Cowboys

0:25:26.800 --> 0:25:30.240
<v Speaker 1>in Vegas, and he was on the Little Cowboys with

0:25:30.520 --> 0:25:32.320
<v Speaker 1>my kids and a bunch of other guys that are

0:25:32.320 --> 0:25:35.879
<v Speaker 1>playing right now, you know what I mean. There's a

0:25:35.960 --> 0:25:39.600
<v Speaker 1>kid named Cayu Uh he's playing with Uh. He just

0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:42.840
<v Speaker 1>got I think he's with Seattle. And then you know,

0:25:42.920 --> 0:25:45.240
<v Speaker 1>there's a few kids that went to the NFL from

0:25:45.240 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 1>that team and in good colleges too. And to see

0:25:49.600 --> 0:25:52.199
<v Speaker 1>Pooka doing what he's doing now, it's just it's so

0:25:52.640 --> 0:25:56.000
<v Speaker 1>it could not happen. Two way better human being. When

0:25:56.080 --> 0:25:57.920
<v Speaker 1>you meet this kid, you will love this kid.

0:25:57.960 --> 0:26:01.680
<v Speaker 3>He's such a good, smiling fine And the crazy thing

0:26:01.720 --> 0:26:05.800
<v Speaker 3>to me is that it's so hard for a rookie receiver,

0:26:06.359 --> 0:26:10.120
<v Speaker 3>which he's not, like a overly dominant athletic guy, right,

0:26:10.480 --> 0:26:12.719
<v Speaker 3>like a Jamar Chase who came in his rookie year

0:26:12.720 --> 0:26:15.760
<v Speaker 3>and balled out, you know, but to be able to

0:26:15.840 --> 0:26:18.960
<v Speaker 3>gain the trust of a quarterback, which you know he

0:26:19.040 --> 0:26:21.639
<v Speaker 3>was kind of forcing that role with Cooper Cup not playing,

0:26:22.080 --> 0:26:25.680
<v Speaker 3>but on any situational play, Matthew Stafford for those first

0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:27.280
<v Speaker 3>four weeks was looking at Pook and a coup and

0:26:27.359 --> 0:26:31.520
<v Speaker 3>he was being a dependable, reliable receiver across that. I mean,

0:26:31.560 --> 0:26:34.080
<v Speaker 3>it's been really impressive. There's a lot of there's a

0:26:34.080 --> 0:26:36.399
<v Speaker 3>lot of great athletes. I mean, Bryce Harper's from out here.

0:26:36.440 --> 0:26:40.360
<v Speaker 3>There's like it's like a little hub of studs.

0:26:40.000 --> 0:26:41.879
<v Speaker 1>And it's actually been that way for a bit. I

0:26:41.920 --> 0:26:43.480
<v Speaker 1>went to school with Marty Cordova. I don't know if

0:26:43.480 --> 0:26:45.439
<v Speaker 1>you remember him, but he was the nineteen ninety five

0:26:45.480 --> 0:26:46.840
<v Speaker 1>American League rook of the Year. He played for the

0:26:46.880 --> 0:26:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Minnesota Twins, and you know, he grew up with us

0:26:49.560 --> 0:26:51.240
<v Speaker 1>that There's been lots of people that have come out

0:26:51.240 --> 0:26:51.719
<v Speaker 1>of Vegas.

0:26:51.800 --> 0:26:54.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's crazy. We got to get back to the UFC.

0:26:54.440 --> 0:26:57.080
<v Speaker 3>That's why we're here. We're talking to hell. Yeah, not

0:26:57.160 --> 0:26:59.359
<v Speaker 3>the founder, the guy who took it over bought it

0:26:59.400 --> 0:27:01.280
<v Speaker 3>for two million dollar are so different four point eight

0:27:01.359 --> 0:27:04.879
<v Speaker 3>Now we merged with WWE. Can you can you explain

0:27:04.880 --> 0:27:06.840
<v Speaker 3>that real quick? I'm getting off my script because I

0:27:06.840 --> 0:27:07.439
<v Speaker 3>don't I don't know.

0:27:07.440 --> 0:27:10.080
<v Speaker 1>It's all good. Uh yeah. So what we did was

0:27:10.359 --> 0:27:13.680
<v Speaker 1>we went public a couple of years ago with Endeavor

0:27:14.680 --> 0:27:17.680
<v Speaker 1>and Devor went out and and and you know, did

0:27:17.720 --> 0:27:21.240
<v Speaker 1>a deal with Vince and the WWE to merge UFC

0:27:21.440 --> 0:27:25.919
<v Speaker 1>and w w E h under the same stock ticker

0:27:26.000 --> 0:27:29.600
<v Speaker 1>symbol t k O. And you know, I think he

0:27:29.640 --> 0:27:31.239
<v Speaker 1>felt like there were a lot of synergies, Like if

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:33.840
<v Speaker 1>you look at the UFC, we we are a fucking

0:27:34.080 --> 0:27:37.320
<v Speaker 1>dialed in machine. And I think that when you looked

0:27:37.320 --> 0:27:41.320
<v Speaker 1>at the w W E already saw some some opportunities

0:27:41.359 --> 0:27:43.640
<v Speaker 1>to go out and cut new TV deals because their

0:27:43.680 --> 0:27:47.480
<v Speaker 1>TV deals were up, and get that sponsorship number up,

0:27:48.000 --> 0:27:49.720
<v Speaker 1>licensing and a lot of other things that he could

0:27:49.720 --> 0:27:51.560
<v Speaker 1>add a lot of value to that would make this

0:27:51.680 --> 0:27:52.840
<v Speaker 1>a very powerful stock.

0:29:02.120 --> 0:29:06.040
<v Speaker 2>I haded that because improv. Let's get back into this fight.

0:29:06.680 --> 0:29:11.400
<v Speaker 3>How important of a character is Connor McGregor for the UFC.

0:29:11.200 --> 0:29:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, we've had. When you think about my business, it's

0:29:15.120 --> 0:29:18.160
<v Speaker 1>very star driven. So you know when we started out,

0:29:18.240 --> 0:29:22.840
<v Speaker 1>we had Chuck Laedell, Anderson, Silva Ronda Rowsey. I mean

0:29:22.880 --> 0:29:24.719
<v Speaker 1>you think of all the stars that have come up,

0:29:24.720 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 1>and every star that has been built in the UFC

0:29:29.280 --> 0:29:33.120
<v Speaker 1>has helped take I'll give you an example, like Matt Hughes, right,

0:29:33.160 --> 0:29:35.719
<v Speaker 1>Remember Matt Hughes came out to a country boy can

0:29:35.840 --> 0:29:38.360
<v Speaker 1>survive and he appealed to a certain audience. Chuck Ladell

0:29:38.440 --> 0:29:41.400
<v Speaker 1>had the mohawk, you know, and knock people out at

0:29:41.400 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 1>a time when people didn't really understand the ground game.

0:29:44.000 --> 0:29:46.120
<v Speaker 1>And then you had somebody like Anderson Silva who was

0:29:46.200 --> 0:29:48.960
<v Speaker 1>like the Bruce Lee of the UFC at that time.

0:29:49.000 --> 0:29:52.040
<v Speaker 1>He could do anything. So you had all these different

0:29:52.120 --> 0:29:55.760
<v Speaker 1>characters with different personalities from different places who helped take

0:29:55.800 --> 0:30:00.080
<v Speaker 1>the sport to another level. Then comes Connor McGregor. One

0:30:00.080 --> 0:30:01.960
<v Speaker 1>of the things that I always talk about with Connor

0:30:02.040 --> 0:30:05.160
<v Speaker 1>McGregor is that everybody thinks they're Irish when you think

0:30:05.160 --> 0:30:07.080
<v Speaker 1>about you know, you go all over the world, you

0:30:07.080 --> 0:30:09.840
<v Speaker 1>think about Saint Patti's Day and you know the Irish bars,

0:30:09.880 --> 0:30:13.680
<v Speaker 1>and everybody thinks they're Irish. The Irish thing is really powerful.

0:30:14.240 --> 0:30:18.800
<v Speaker 1>So he comes out incredible personality, He's from Ireland and

0:30:18.840 --> 0:30:21.600
<v Speaker 1>he can actually fight, So it was like it was

0:30:21.960 --> 0:30:24.360
<v Speaker 1>such a home run, and it just you know, he

0:30:24.640 --> 0:30:26.920
<v Speaker 1>took us to a whole other level throughout Europe and

0:30:27.040 --> 0:30:27.920
<v Speaker 1>other parts of the world.

0:30:28.200 --> 0:30:32.960
<v Speaker 2>What makes him a special fighter is his hands length.

0:30:33.640 --> 0:30:35.520
<v Speaker 1>He's a lot of things with Connor. One of the

0:30:35.560 --> 0:30:38.600
<v Speaker 1>things with Connors, let's start with his personality. He's got

0:30:38.600 --> 0:30:42.480
<v Speaker 1>this magnetic personality that you were just drawn to. He's

0:30:42.520 --> 0:30:47.640
<v Speaker 1>incredibly witty. His trash talk is Ali level. You know,

0:30:47.840 --> 0:30:52.320
<v Speaker 1>his persona is Ali level. He's a guy that transcends

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:55.960
<v Speaker 1>all sports. Yeah, you know, he's one of the guys

0:30:55.960 --> 0:30:59.840
<v Speaker 1>that when he walks into a room, everybody's like, holy shit,

0:31:00.000 --> 0:31:00.800
<v Speaker 1>that's Connor McGregor.

0:31:00.920 --> 0:31:02.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. What about his fight style?

0:31:03.240 --> 0:31:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, he's one of these guys. He can do anything.

0:31:05.520 --> 0:31:07.680
<v Speaker 1>He likes to stand up, he's got heavy hands, he

0:31:07.720 --> 0:31:11.440
<v Speaker 1>can knock you out, and his ground game isn't bad either,

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:14.600
<v Speaker 1>you know so, but people like to see him stand

0:31:14.680 --> 0:31:15.400
<v Speaker 1>up and knock you out.

0:31:15.920 --> 0:31:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Jack, can you set the stage for this fight.

0:31:19.000 --> 0:31:19.720
<v Speaker 2>Jump into the fight.

0:31:19.840 --> 0:31:20.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, let's get into this thing.

0:31:21.480 --> 0:31:23.800
<v Speaker 5>So, as we touched on earlier, the lead up, I mean,

0:31:24.040 --> 0:31:28.000
<v Speaker 5>this goes back two or three years. Trash talk camps

0:31:28.000 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 5>are fighting, slapping in the hallways.

0:31:30.760 --> 0:31:33.920
<v Speaker 3>We got the DOLLI through the And it's crazy because

0:31:33.960 --> 0:31:36.240
<v Speaker 3>they they were kind of boys at the very very

0:31:36.280 --> 0:31:38.960
<v Speaker 3>beginning and didn't habib He kind of like it was

0:31:39.040 --> 0:31:41.160
<v Speaker 3>kind of a parallel rise, right then Connor at the

0:31:41.240 --> 0:31:45.200
<v Speaker 3>very beginning, keep going like their rise was quasi parallel ish.

0:31:45.240 --> 0:31:48.640
<v Speaker 1>You're absolutely right, their rise it was at the same time.

0:31:49.200 --> 0:31:53.040
<v Speaker 1>And uh, you know the problem that you're talking about

0:31:53.080 --> 0:31:54.440
<v Speaker 1>with these two when you say they were boys, there

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:56.479
<v Speaker 1>were never really boys. It was like a mutual hair

0:31:56.520 --> 0:32:00.800
<v Speaker 1>or whatever. You're dealing with two hardcore, fucking alpha males.

0:32:01.280 --> 0:32:05.400
<v Speaker 1>Guess these guys are both killers. They both want to

0:32:05.400 --> 0:32:07.720
<v Speaker 1>be the best, they both want to win, and they're

0:32:07.720 --> 0:32:10.200
<v Speaker 1>both willing to fight anybody and do anything to be

0:32:10.280 --> 0:32:12.760
<v Speaker 1>the best. So when you get those two type of guys,

0:32:13.200 --> 0:32:14.960
<v Speaker 1>there is no BM buddies. Those two are on a

0:32:15.000 --> 0:32:17.320
<v Speaker 1>collision course before they even knew they were.

0:32:17.520 --> 0:32:20.479
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, as we touched on it earlier.

0:32:20.560 --> 0:32:22.959
<v Speaker 5>Also, I mean these two camps, like it was just

0:32:23.360 --> 0:32:27.160
<v Speaker 5>animosity at every turn and a clash of styles too,

0:32:27.240 --> 0:32:31.240
<v Speaker 5>Like you got to be cold, calculated, tough just to

0:32:31.400 --> 0:32:33.880
<v Speaker 5>do the fight, like great wrestler ground great ground game.

0:32:33.960 --> 0:32:37.360
<v Speaker 5>I mean a machine almost like I don't know, like,

0:32:37.800 --> 0:32:39.040
<v Speaker 5>you know, how do you even beat him?

0:32:39.640 --> 0:32:41.840
<v Speaker 3>It seems impossible. I mean, I know, no one's done it.

0:32:41.960 --> 0:32:43.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to tell you one of the things that's

0:32:43.600 --> 0:32:47.480
<v Speaker 1>super unfortunate for us, but very fortunate for Habib. You

0:32:47.520 --> 0:32:51.200
<v Speaker 1>know the fact that I mean, this guy, I would

0:32:51.200 --> 0:32:53.480
<v Speaker 1>have loved to have seen him go on longer. Yeah,

0:32:53.680 --> 0:32:57.560
<v Speaker 1>so much more. When his dad passed away, it kind

0:32:57.560 --> 0:33:01.280
<v Speaker 1>of sucked all the energy. His dad was trainer growing

0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:03.560
<v Speaker 1>up and trained a whole camp and everything else, and

0:33:03.640 --> 0:33:06.440
<v Speaker 1>the dad had a vision that Habib would be the champion.

0:33:06.680 --> 0:33:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Then when Habib retired, Islam would come in and be

0:33:09.040 --> 0:33:10.640
<v Speaker 1>the champion. Let me tell you what you want to

0:33:10.640 --> 0:33:12.520
<v Speaker 1>talk about. One of the greatest coaches in the history

0:33:12.520 --> 0:33:15.400
<v Speaker 1>of the sport that's never talked about Abib and the

0:33:15.440 --> 0:33:17.480
<v Speaker 1>murder Medoff's dad. You know what I mean when you

0:33:17.480 --> 0:33:22.120
<v Speaker 1>think about what that guy built. So the problem was

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:26.760
<v Speaker 1>in the Muslim world is he became this huge megastar

0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:29.280
<v Speaker 1>in the Muslim world. So after he beat Connor McGregor,

0:33:29.600 --> 0:33:32.200
<v Speaker 1>he went on like this tour of all the Muslim countries.

0:33:32.240 --> 0:33:35.120
<v Speaker 1>So he's he's going into Turkey, he's going into Saudi Arabia,

0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.600
<v Speaker 1>he's going to Abu Dhabi, he's going over to Dubai

0:33:37.920 --> 0:33:41.000
<v Speaker 1>and they're raining on. I mean, he didn't even make

0:33:41.040 --> 0:33:44.479
<v Speaker 1>it back to his dressing room. After the fighting. Putin

0:33:44.520 --> 0:33:47.640
<v Speaker 1>was on the phone and Putin gave him and his

0:33:47.680 --> 0:33:51.960
<v Speaker 1>father like twenty million dollars worth of property in Russia.

0:33:52.520 --> 0:33:54.840
<v Speaker 1>Then he went into you know, the Muslim territories where

0:33:54.840 --> 0:34:00.640
<v Speaker 1>these guys are just cars, money, Jim's whatever, whatever he wanted.

0:34:00.960 --> 0:34:03.720
<v Speaker 1>So once you get to that level, it's like what

0:34:03.720 --> 0:34:07.360
<v Speaker 1>we're dealing with with Connor McGregor. Connor McGregor lives on

0:34:07.400 --> 0:34:10.319
<v Speaker 1>a yacht in the middle of wherever the warmest place

0:34:10.360 --> 0:34:12.880
<v Speaker 1>in the world is at that time, and you know,

0:34:12.960 --> 0:34:13.359
<v Speaker 1>it's just.

0:34:13.360 --> 0:34:15.880
<v Speaker 3>And he's showing you, Oh, man, I live vicariously on Instagram.

0:34:16.280 --> 0:34:18.279
<v Speaker 1>Well, once you get to that level, man, it's just

0:34:19.480 --> 0:34:21.200
<v Speaker 1>you're not getting up and getting punched in the face

0:34:21.239 --> 0:34:22.080
<v Speaker 1>every day anymore.

0:34:22.000 --> 0:34:24.520
<v Speaker 3>It's just, you know, is Habib the greatest?

0:34:25.000 --> 0:34:27.400
<v Speaker 1>The greatest of all time? Is John Jones, John Jones,

0:34:27.800 --> 0:34:32.960
<v Speaker 1>N Jones, John Jones. John Jones is undefeated. Habib was

0:34:33.040 --> 0:34:35.080
<v Speaker 1>undefeated too, But I would have liked to see Habib

0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:38.040
<v Speaker 1>more do more. John Jones has been around forever. He's

0:34:38.040 --> 0:34:40.279
<v Speaker 1>fought everybody in the light heavyweight division. Now he's in

0:34:40.320 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 1>the heavyweight division beating guys like take three years off.

0:34:43.880 --> 0:34:47.399
<v Speaker 1>Ali never looked the same after three years. He took

0:34:47.440 --> 0:34:50.480
<v Speaker 1>three years off. John Jones went in and made Cyril

0:34:50.560 --> 0:34:52.920
<v Speaker 1>Gone look like he'd never fought in his life. Who

0:34:53.600 --> 0:34:56.439
<v Speaker 1>you know? I mean, Jones is the greatest ever. He's

0:34:56.440 --> 0:35:00.680
<v Speaker 1>so long and he's never been beat never been beat man.

0:35:01.480 --> 0:35:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Peter doesn't know what losing feels like. He's never lost.

0:35:04.239 --> 0:35:04.719
<v Speaker 1>Think of that.

0:35:04.960 --> 0:35:07.200
<v Speaker 2>Who's the NFL equivalent to Habib?

0:35:07.239 --> 0:35:07.399
<v Speaker 1>Though?

0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:11.000
<v Speaker 2>As a player, it's tough.

0:35:10.880 --> 0:35:13.200
<v Speaker 1>Well, it is because you know, you guys have so

0:35:13.280 --> 0:35:16.280
<v Speaker 1>many legends. You guys have so much history in the sport.

0:35:16.320 --> 0:35:19.600
<v Speaker 1>There's so many legends in your sport. It's hard to say.

0:35:19.640 --> 0:35:22.880
<v Speaker 1>You know, we're thirty years old, but you know the

0:35:24.000 --> 0:35:27.080
<v Speaker 1>sport that me and the Fertida started is twenty three

0:35:27.200 --> 0:35:30.240
<v Speaker 1>years old. Yeah, we're still We're still a kid compared

0:35:30.280 --> 0:35:32.000
<v Speaker 1>to the NFL and some of these other sports.

0:35:32.400 --> 0:35:32.960
<v Speaker 2>That's crazy.

0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:34.680
<v Speaker 5>And the lead up of this one, I'd be remissed

0:35:34.719 --> 0:35:37.319
<v Speaker 5>if we didn't talk numbers. Have you mentioned this thing?

0:35:37.400 --> 0:35:40.120
<v Speaker 5>Twenty six and oh, coming off a win over Alai

0:35:40.120 --> 0:35:43.920
<v Speaker 5>a Quinto not that long a year earlier Connor twenty

0:35:43.920 --> 0:35:47.839
<v Speaker 5>one and three, but hadn't fought since the mainway weather,

0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:51.120
<v Speaker 5>So there's a lot of talk would he have fared

0:35:51.160 --> 0:35:53.880
<v Speaker 5>better if he'd had a little appearance in the octagon

0:35:53.920 --> 0:35:54.640
<v Speaker 5>in between that you.

0:35:54.640 --> 0:35:56.439
<v Speaker 3>Think he should have had a little a tune up fight.

0:35:57.400 --> 0:35:59.359
<v Speaker 1>No, we don't do tune up fights here, and that's

0:35:59.360 --> 0:36:02.400
<v Speaker 1>not how this w works. Tune up fights are like

0:36:02.440 --> 0:36:04.319
<v Speaker 1>a boxing bullshit thing.

0:36:04.840 --> 0:36:08.640
<v Speaker 3>No stepping stones a step ll for not in UFC FU.

0:36:09.080 --> 0:36:16.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's no such thing, double cham Yeah no, he uh.

0:36:16.480 --> 0:36:19.160
<v Speaker 1>It's it's part of the problem, listen, in this sport

0:36:19.680 --> 0:36:22.600
<v Speaker 1>when when you have to be a very special kind

0:36:22.640 --> 0:36:26.440
<v Speaker 1>of person to have fifty eighty one hundred million in

0:36:26.480 --> 0:36:30.040
<v Speaker 1>the bank and still come out and compete at that level,

0:36:30.360 --> 0:36:32.600
<v Speaker 1>it's part of what makes you so bad ass here.

0:36:32.640 --> 0:36:34.640
<v Speaker 1>It's two things. Part of what makes you so bad

0:36:34.800 --> 0:36:38.319
<v Speaker 1>ass here is hunger, all the things you want right,

0:36:40.280 --> 0:36:43.280
<v Speaker 1>And number two is once you get to a level

0:36:43.840 --> 0:36:49.480
<v Speaker 1>of success and monetary success, how do you keep fucking

0:36:49.520 --> 0:36:54.200
<v Speaker 1>training that hard and everybody that's under you is training

0:36:54.440 --> 0:36:57.600
<v Speaker 1>to beat you? Just like you said, that happened you know,

0:36:58.120 --> 0:37:02.480
<v Speaker 1>in the NFL and then the AFC, right, everybody was

0:37:02.600 --> 0:37:06.720
<v Speaker 1>training that year to beat the Patriots. Breaking down your film,

0:37:06.800 --> 0:37:10.759
<v Speaker 1>breaking down your plays, breaking down your defense. Everything they

0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:13.359
<v Speaker 1>saw was to beat you. That's what happens when you're

0:37:13.400 --> 0:37:14.399
<v Speaker 1>the best in the UF state.

0:37:14.520 --> 0:37:17.840
<v Speaker 3>You're measuring stick yep that's what Big called measuring stick

0:37:17.920 --> 0:37:19.680
<v Speaker 3>team guy, fight fighter.

0:37:20.080 --> 0:37:21.759
<v Speaker 5>What Dana said made me think of that line from

0:37:21.800 --> 0:37:24.080
<v Speaker 5>Rocky when you say the worst thing you can become

0:37:24.160 --> 0:37:27.200
<v Speaker 5>is civilized, rock You wouldn't be game civilized when that is.

0:37:27.719 --> 0:37:30.480
<v Speaker 1>You know, what's fascinating is with Stallone. You know, Stallone

0:37:30.520 --> 0:37:33.600
<v Speaker 1>is such a big fight fan. When I see fight movies,

0:37:34.200 --> 0:37:36.120
<v Speaker 1>they're fucking goofy. To me, it's probably like when you

0:37:36.120 --> 0:37:38.440
<v Speaker 1>watch a fucking football movie. It's like, this is the

0:37:38.560 --> 0:37:41.120
<v Speaker 1>dumbest fucking shit that I've ever seen in my life.

0:37:41.120 --> 0:37:44.920
<v Speaker 1>It's literally nothing like any of this. But Stallone always

0:37:44.920 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>had this way of you know, when you watched the

0:37:47.160 --> 0:37:49.480
<v Speaker 1>fucking Rocky movie, man, your ass was getting up at

0:37:49.480 --> 0:37:51.319
<v Speaker 1>six o'clock the next morning and going to work out

0:37:51.360 --> 0:37:53.800
<v Speaker 1>and start training. And they were so motivational, and you

0:37:53.920 --> 0:37:58.520
<v Speaker 1>always had these these things that were were true. Saying

0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:00.960
<v Speaker 1>is about being involved in by boxing or some type

0:38:01.000 --> 0:38:01.760
<v Speaker 1>of combat sport.

0:38:02.160 --> 0:38:04.479
<v Speaker 2>The origin of my beard is because of Rocky four.

0:38:04.840 --> 0:38:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Is it really Russia?

0:38:06.480 --> 0:38:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? You remember he wanted to go to Russia and.

0:38:08.640 --> 0:38:11.680
<v Speaker 1>He wanted to I saw Rocky one, two, three and

0:38:11.719 --> 0:38:13.080
<v Speaker 1>four a million times.

0:38:13.120 --> 0:38:15.799
<v Speaker 2>Man, you can't you can't not turn it off.

0:38:15.960 --> 0:38:16.480
<v Speaker 1>So true.

0:38:16.840 --> 0:38:19.800
<v Speaker 3>I mean it's always on a TBS or some channel.

0:38:19.920 --> 0:38:22.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean, if you're on channels anymore, probably kind.

0:38:22.040 --> 0:38:26.239
<v Speaker 1>Of what's your favorite Rocky? Everybody makes the argument that

0:38:26.400 --> 0:38:28.360
<v Speaker 1>like Rocky one should be your favorite.

0:38:28.480 --> 0:38:31.160
<v Speaker 3>No, that's it's cinematography wise.

0:38:31.239 --> 0:38:32.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and they got all the best.

0:38:32.960 --> 0:38:36.200
<v Speaker 3>But I loved I loved three and four.

0:38:36.640 --> 0:38:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Three was my favorite. Mister t cl so good and

0:38:43.840 --> 0:38:46.600
<v Speaker 1>the training sequences that he had, you know, clubver Lang

0:38:46.600 --> 0:38:48.600
<v Speaker 1>when he was coming up. But four was great too.

0:38:48.719 --> 0:38:52.279
<v Speaker 1>I love Russian and uh yeah, three and four of

0:38:52.320 --> 0:38:53.240
<v Speaker 1>my are my two favorites.

0:38:53.280 --> 0:38:56.360
<v Speaker 3>I loved three because, just like we were just talking about,

0:38:56.600 --> 0:38:59.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, he kind of was up there and he's

0:38:59.600 --> 0:39:02.080
<v Speaker 3>beating all those guys and then it gets a little

0:39:02.120 --> 0:39:04.120
<v Speaker 3>harder when you're the champ. You know, you lose that

0:39:04.239 --> 0:39:06.640
<v Speaker 3>hunger and then you got that hungry guy that's coming

0:39:06.680 --> 0:39:09.000
<v Speaker 3>in there. You know, my dad used to say that

0:39:09.040 --> 0:39:10.879
<v Speaker 3>when I come home from training and go you out

0:39:10.920 --> 0:39:13.160
<v Speaker 3>train those six guys we're talking about the six guys

0:39:13.160 --> 0:39:15.200
<v Speaker 3>in high school are coming take your job right now.

0:39:15.520 --> 0:39:17.960
<v Speaker 3>They're coming up right now. And you know it's true,

0:39:18.440 --> 0:39:20.200
<v Speaker 3>you know. And that's what Glover Lang was. He was

0:39:20.920 --> 0:39:24.120
<v Speaker 3>that one guy. And then Rocky had to get a

0:39:24.160 --> 0:39:25.800
<v Speaker 3>little rhythm. He had to go to La get a

0:39:25.800 --> 0:39:26.360
<v Speaker 3>little rhythm.

0:39:26.600 --> 0:39:28.279
<v Speaker 1>Right. Well, it was kind of like the uh they

0:39:28.280 --> 0:39:31.240
<v Speaker 1>were They went to Philly. Didn't you go to Philly?

0:39:31.320 --> 0:39:33.879
<v Speaker 1>He went to La though, No, Philly is where they went.

0:39:33.920 --> 0:39:35.799
<v Speaker 1>They ended up at some gym in Philly that that

0:39:36.040 --> 0:39:37.080
<v Speaker 1>Paulo Creed used to work.

0:39:37.280 --> 0:39:38.160
<v Speaker 2>I thought that was in l A.

0:39:38.280 --> 0:39:40.400
<v Speaker 1>No, it was Philly. That's where Paulo Creed came up.

0:39:40.520 --> 0:39:43.880
<v Speaker 3>Is that we gotta gotta I can't think it's l A.

0:39:44.080 --> 0:39:46.160
<v Speaker 3>You might be right, because I remember they would race

0:39:46.200 --> 0:39:47.280
<v Speaker 3>at the beach with a polo.

0:39:47.360 --> 0:39:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, you're right, Well Apolo was from l A. Yeah,

0:39:50.280 --> 0:39:50.920
<v Speaker 1>you're probably right.

0:39:51.080 --> 0:39:52.760
<v Speaker 2>I thought I thought he's from Philly.

0:39:53.560 --> 0:39:57.040
<v Speaker 1>All right? Where did they train? But one of the

0:39:57.120 --> 0:40:00.000
<v Speaker 1>things that Rocky three is about, and we're talking about

0:40:00.040 --> 0:40:02.080
<v Speaker 1>out here, is how he had gotten top, had all

0:40:02.080 --> 0:40:03.360

0:41:15.560 --> 0:41:17.040
<v Speaker 1>Bulla in the video game here pretty soon.

0:41:17.160 --> 0:41:21.239
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, I cannot wait. And it's time for

0:41:21.360 --> 0:41:27.000
<v Speaker 3>the Bounty wingman question. Bring out the wings. They're there.

0:41:27.320 --> 0:41:31.360
<v Speaker 3>Bounty is everyone's favorite wingman because you can't have football

0:41:31.440 --> 0:41:36.000
<v Speaker 3>without wings, and you can't have wings without Bounty. And

0:41:36.200 --> 0:41:40.200
<v Speaker 3>today's Bounty Wingman question will be going to my day

0:41:40.280 --> 0:41:47.000
<v Speaker 3>one wingman, Kurt de la rosa best friend since birth.

0:41:47.120 --> 0:41:53.560
<v Speaker 3>Pretty much, what is the messiest situation that we've been in?

0:41:53.760 --> 0:41:55.480
<v Speaker 3>I want to hear your story, and then I may

0:41:55.560 --> 0:42:00.120
<v Speaker 3>have one. I would say the messiest situation that you

0:42:00.239 --> 0:42:04.000
<v Speaker 3>have been in. To keep it PG because you don't

0:42:04.000 --> 0:42:05.800
<v Speaker 3>want to talk about being in trouble. You can do.

0:42:06.160 --> 0:42:06.879
<v Speaker 3>You can do our.

0:42:10.040 --> 0:42:12.640
<v Speaker 4>So I don't know you probably you should remember this.

0:42:13.239 --> 0:42:17.120
<v Speaker 4>It's the first year our city entered into Babe Ruth,

0:42:17.480 --> 0:42:20.840
<v Speaker 4>which was a big kind of like thirteen fourteen, fifteen

0:42:21.040 --> 0:42:23.600
<v Speaker 4>Baseball League or whatever, unless we entered.

0:42:23.440 --> 0:42:24.440
<v Speaker 2>The Palo Alto.

0:42:24.840 --> 0:42:28.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so we're in a completely different city. They have

0:42:28.440 --> 0:42:30.560
<v Speaker 3>you know, ten part ten teams or whatever.

0:42:30.600 --> 0:42:34.520
<v Speaker 4>The league's already set up, like like, hey, Redwood City

0:42:34.600 --> 0:42:37.000
<v Speaker 4>wants to join, and we're gonna put our own little

0:42:37.040 --> 0:42:39.160
<v Speaker 4>all star team together because Redwood City was already a

0:42:39.200 --> 0:42:43.360
<v Speaker 4>big enough city that we had ten teams in itself already.

0:42:43.360 --> 0:42:45.080
<v Speaker 4>And we're like, you know what, we're joining this pala

0:42:45.160 --> 0:42:47.600
<v Speaker 4>Alta league and we're gonna kind of stitch a team

0:42:47.680 --> 0:42:51.200
<v Speaker 4>together to fit in this other league. So we're now

0:42:51.280 --> 0:42:53.879
<v Speaker 4>playing against all the kids that we usually would only

0:42:54.000 --> 0:42:55.600
<v Speaker 4>play in like playoffs or.

0:42:55.640 --> 0:42:56.720
<v Speaker 2>All Stars or whatnot.

0:42:57.120 --> 0:42:59.440
<v Speaker 1>And so we're kind of like you said, the bad.

0:42:59.320 --> 0:43:02.400
<v Speaker 3>News Bad Bears. These people were classy and it was

0:43:02.440 --> 0:43:05.160
<v Speaker 3>people had money. It was also like Jules and.

0:43:05.200 --> 0:43:07.120
<v Speaker 4>I were kind of like, oh, we're kind of getting

0:43:07.120 --> 0:43:10.040
<v Speaker 4>pretty good at baseball. We're gonna be playing shortstop in

0:43:10.120 --> 0:43:13.400
<v Speaker 4>second base. We had all these aspirations to be great.

0:43:14.160 --> 0:43:19.080
<v Speaker 4>And so we're playing at Kenyataa and the rival team,

0:43:19.160 --> 0:43:20.520
<v Speaker 4>I don't remember what their team was.

0:43:20.560 --> 0:43:22.640
<v Speaker 3>They were green, I guess all I can remember.

0:43:23.320 --> 0:43:25.480
<v Speaker 4>And they had this one dude who was like six'

0:43:25.560 --> 0:43:27.560
<v Speaker 4>one two ten.

0:43:28.000 --> 0:43:30.000
<v Speaker 3>Rolled up he rolled up his sleeps.

0:43:30.080 --> 0:43:31.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, because he had guns.

0:43:31.680 --> 0:43:33.520
<v Speaker 3>He was like a pre chunky kid, you know what

0:43:33.560 --> 0:43:36.080
<v Speaker 3>I mean. So, you know, but like he rolled up

0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:36.760
<v Speaker 3>his sleeves.

0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:37.800
<v Speaker 2>I mean we're how old were we?

0:43:38.040 --> 0:43:40.520
<v Speaker 3>So we were thirteen or fourteen?

0:43:40.600 --> 0:43:42.200
<v Speaker 1>They went to fifteen, it went to fifteen.

0:43:42.280 --> 0:43:45.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you know, you should look at this guy

0:43:45.880 --> 0:43:48.640
<v Speaker 4>who's six' to one, you know, two hundred plus pounds

0:43:48.760 --> 0:43:50.520
<v Speaker 4>at the age of fourteen fifteen.

0:43:51.800 --> 0:43:52.399
<v Speaker 3>When you look at.

0:43:52.400 --> 0:43:54.640
<v Speaker 4>Jeweles and I and we're both still four ten one

0:43:54.719 --> 0:43:58.040
<v Speaker 4>hundred pounds, soaking wet, you know, little little guy like

0:43:58.440 --> 0:44:01.360
<v Speaker 4>and so there was this one play. I think we

0:44:01.480 --> 0:44:03.680
<v Speaker 4>were up by like two runs already, so they're getting

0:44:03.680 --> 0:44:06.839
<v Speaker 4>a little frustrated, and he hits a ground ball through

0:44:06.880 --> 0:44:09.320
<v Speaker 4>the right side. And so, if you know baseball, what

0:44:09.400 --> 0:44:11.759
<v Speaker 4>happens is the first baseman tries to get the ball.

0:44:11.880 --> 0:44:14.640
<v Speaker 4>Second base has to rotate to first to cover just

0:44:14.760 --> 0:44:16.120
<v Speaker 4>in case you want to back to where I'm on,

0:44:16.320 --> 0:44:18.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, if he gets too far around. So instead

0:44:18.920 --> 0:44:20.840
<v Speaker 4>of him kind of running through the line, he just

0:44:21.640 --> 0:44:24.680
<v Speaker 4>plows right through me. I get blindsided, taken out, and

0:44:24.800 --> 0:44:27.279
<v Speaker 4>so I'm like in like a daze like cartoon, like,

0:44:27.880 --> 0:44:29.719
<v Speaker 4>you know, I got dust all over me and I

0:44:29.840 --> 0:44:33.640
<v Speaker 4>sit up and I just see Julian sprinting full speed,

0:44:33.880 --> 0:44:35.879
<v Speaker 4>just launch his full body into this guy.

0:44:37.000 --> 0:44:37.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, through his glove.

0:44:38.360 --> 0:44:38.719
<v Speaker 5>It was like.

0:44:42.200 --> 0:44:44.920
<v Speaker 3>This guy's holding me like a little fucking ragdall like.

0:44:46.520 --> 0:44:50.080
<v Speaker 4>And you know that's the bounty, you know, pledge right

0:44:50.120 --> 0:44:52.719
<v Speaker 4>there is like hey, like you get a med situation

0:44:53.400 --> 0:44:55.400
<v Speaker 4>and and you got your clean up right here, and

0:44:55.440 --> 0:44:56.400
<v Speaker 4>he came to clean up the.

0:44:56.440 --> 0:44:58.840
<v Speaker 2>Mess for me because you know that's what best friends do.

0:44:59.840 --> 0:45:04.120
<v Speaker 6>Back, like, fuck this dude, I don't sorry about you,

0:45:04.239 --> 0:45:09.680
<v Speaker 6>but yeah, yeah, oh yeah. Second baseline, you want to

0:45:09.680 --> 0:45:14.040
<v Speaker 6>know how our bad news bears. So we make the playoffs.

0:45:14.840 --> 0:45:16.280
<v Speaker 1>It's just another miss stitution.

0:45:18.200 --> 0:45:23.600
<v Speaker 3>Make playoffs, get to the finals, right, but it's like

0:45:23.680 --> 0:45:26.600
<v Speaker 3>a two game elimination. So we lost one game, I think, right,

0:45:26.800 --> 0:45:29.480
<v Speaker 3>and so then we battled our way back to the

0:45:29.640 --> 0:45:33.160
<v Speaker 3>finals to play the best team that everyone knew, the

0:45:33.160 --> 0:45:33.520
<v Speaker 3>best team.

0:45:33.840 --> 0:45:34.920
<v Speaker 1>We would have to win twice.

0:45:34.920 --> 0:45:37.719
<v Speaker 3>We'd have to win twice. First game we play them,

0:45:38.840 --> 0:45:42.120
<v Speaker 3>we're beating their ass. Were like up like what eight

0:45:42.239 --> 0:45:45.120
<v Speaker 3>or nine? Yeah, we're up eight or nine. I'm not

0:45:45.200 --> 0:45:50.040
<v Speaker 3>gonna give no names, but our goddamn fucking manager not

0:45:50.239 --> 0:45:54.000
<v Speaker 3>knowing the goddamn situations, puts one of our boys in

0:45:55.080 --> 0:45:56.520
<v Speaker 3>because he wants to get him in. It's one of

0:45:56.520 --> 0:45:59.080
<v Speaker 3>the last games, and the next next game is like championship.

0:45:59.160 --> 0:45:59.640
<v Speaker 2>You know what I mean.

0:46:00.000 --> 0:46:04.120
<v Speaker 3>It's in our final sub final sub ends up headbutting

0:46:04.239 --> 0:46:06.200
<v Speaker 3>someone in something no he gets.

0:46:06.360 --> 0:46:09.920
<v Speaker 4>He gets caught in a pick between home and third

0:46:10.600 --> 0:46:14.200
<v Speaker 4>and instead of just getting tagged out, decides to just

0:46:14.320 --> 0:46:18.600
<v Speaker 4>go full spear like into the third basement, like way

0:46:18.640 --> 0:46:20.400
<v Speaker 4>over the top or everyone's kind of like whoa, that was.

0:46:20.440 --> 0:46:23.960
<v Speaker 3>Little aggressive, ejected, full eject.

0:46:24.719 --> 0:46:27.480
<v Speaker 4>We had to force this bottom of six. All we

0:46:27.560 --> 0:46:28.960
<v Speaker 4>had to do was get three more outs in the

0:46:29.000 --> 0:46:31.920
<v Speaker 4>next inning to force a final game to the season.

0:46:32.080 --> 0:46:36.560
<v Speaker 3>The championship Bad News Bears had a forfeit fucking no subs,

0:46:37.040 --> 0:46:40.000
<v Speaker 3>no subs, Bad News Bears knocked out of the game.

0:46:40.480 --> 0:46:44.880
<v Speaker 3>Our whole team like classless as they come, like, fuck

0:46:44.960 --> 0:46:51.040
<v Speaker 3>you guys, We're all like from East Redwood City. It's

0:46:51.040 --> 0:46:54.520
<v Speaker 3>a script. I don't think they had a rather Redwood

0:46:54.560 --> 0:46:56.800
<v Speaker 3>City team ever enter that league. Again.

0:46:56.880 --> 0:46:59.919
<v Speaker 6>We were like fuck you guys and your stupid league

0:47:00.200 --> 0:47:03.839
<v Speaker 6>World champions like literally like the Bad News Bears at

0:47:03.880 --> 0:47:06.160
<v Speaker 6>the end where they're like pouring like beers and stuff

0:47:06.200 --> 0:47:06.640
<v Speaker 6>on him for.

0:47:06.760 --> 0:47:07.479
<v Speaker 3>Losing the game.

0:47:08.000 --> 0:47:11.840
<v Speaker 2>That was us Kenny Inglehart. Why you gotta try to

0:47:11.880 --> 0:47:13.040
<v Speaker 2>take someone's neck out.

0:47:12.960 --> 0:47:15.239
<v Speaker 4>Bro in the heat of the moment, you know, he

0:47:15.320 --> 0:47:16.320
<v Speaker 4>got he got excited.

0:47:16.400 --> 0:47:17.880
<v Speaker 3>Maybe that's why he was a sub.

0:47:17.680 --> 0:47:23.920
<v Speaker 2>Though, And that's our bounty wingman question.

0:47:24.960 --> 0:47:29.920
<v Speaker 5>Storytime, should we get into this, uh this breakdown this fight.

0:47:31.160 --> 0:47:34.080
<v Speaker 5>Of course, lightweight Championship. As we know, the pay per

0:47:34.160 --> 0:47:36.239
<v Speaker 5>view buys were insane two point four million.

0:47:36.239 --> 0:47:39.279
<v Speaker 2>I believe, yep is the highest at that time.

0:47:39.760 --> 0:47:42.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, uh crazy, the only the only paper view,

0:47:42.840 --> 0:47:44.759
<v Speaker 1>the only pay per view that beat that was uh

0:47:45.239 --> 0:47:49.359
<v Speaker 1>Connor and Floyd Wow and Floyd and uh.

0:47:49.560 --> 0:47:53.160
<v Speaker 5>Pack y'all, Oh that's right, that's right. But then so okay,

0:47:53.200 --> 0:47:56.160
<v Speaker 5>so this is number one UFC. Yeah, damn insane, I thought.

0:47:56.239 --> 0:48:00.399
<v Speaker 5>So we all remember what happened. Everyone talks before and after,

0:48:01.040 --> 0:48:06.080
<v Speaker 5>but rounds one and two Kabib kind of dominated dominated.

0:48:06.360 --> 0:48:08.880
<v Speaker 3>He was just like just on top of him, wearing

0:48:08.960 --> 0:48:10.759
<v Speaker 3>him out, wearing him out.

0:48:10.920 --> 0:48:13.520
<v Speaker 2>I was watching that fight. I was like, there's no

0:48:13.640 --> 0:48:14.960
<v Speaker 2>way Connor's gonna win this fight.

0:48:15.239 --> 0:48:17.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. To Connor's credit, I mean, if you look at

0:48:17.680 --> 0:48:19.960
<v Speaker 1>when he when he fought Poorier, you know when he

0:48:20.000 --> 0:48:21.960
<v Speaker 1>grabbed down to Pooria and did what he did to Poorier.

0:48:22.960 --> 0:48:25.560
<v Speaker 1>He came out of that fight and was like, I

0:48:25.760 --> 0:48:28.200
<v Speaker 1>was freaked out by it. I couldn't believe that somebody

0:48:28.239 --> 0:48:30.600
<v Speaker 1>could do that to me. It was blown away by

0:48:30.680 --> 0:48:33.800
<v Speaker 1>what Abib had done to him. And then, yeah, Abibe

0:48:33.840 --> 0:48:35.080
<v Speaker 1>was a bad boy. I would have loved to have

0:48:35.160 --> 0:48:36.680
<v Speaker 1>seen more of him in his career.

0:48:37.040 --> 0:48:38.960
<v Speaker 5>And there was talk of stoppage in the second round.

0:48:38.960 --> 0:48:41.040
<v Speaker 5>People were calling for it. Even Joe Rogan was on

0:48:41.160 --> 0:48:44.319
<v Speaker 5>the on the mic alluding to like, is herbding gonna

0:48:44.320 --> 0:48:44.920
<v Speaker 5>stop this thing?

0:48:45.040 --> 0:48:47.040
<v Speaker 3>Like what makes herbdin such a good riff?

0:48:47.520 --> 0:48:50.279
<v Speaker 1>Well, he he does. Uh, you know he trains too.

0:48:50.400 --> 0:48:52.360
<v Speaker 1>He trains and he's had a couple of fights himself,

0:48:53.719 --> 0:48:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I think any amateurs. I don't know if he ever

0:48:55.239 --> 0:48:58.680
<v Speaker 1>fought pro but uh, he's knowledgeable. He knows what he's doing.

0:48:58.800 --> 0:49:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Is one of the best refs of all time.

0:49:02.000 --> 0:49:04.840
<v Speaker 2>What was that called to Connor? Like after the bus incident,

0:49:05.280 --> 0:49:06.759
<v Speaker 2>you're like, we fucking doing that.

0:49:06.880 --> 0:49:09.360
<v Speaker 1>Well he got arrested, I know, to go to fucking

0:49:09.440 --> 0:49:10.800
<v Speaker 1>it's just like you gotta.

0:49:10.680 --> 0:49:12.400
<v Speaker 3>The commission, that's what you gotta put. Commission had on.

0:49:12.640 --> 0:49:16.200
<v Speaker 1>That's the mentality, man. I mean, this guy a bebe

0:49:16.920 --> 0:49:20.640
<v Speaker 1>and his crew ran into one of Connor's buddies slapped him.

0:49:22.040 --> 0:49:24.719
<v Speaker 1>He called Connor and told him. Connor loaded up a

0:49:24.760 --> 0:49:27.440
<v Speaker 1>bunch of thugs on a plane and from Ireland. They

0:49:27.560 --> 0:49:30.240
<v Speaker 1>jumped on a fucking on a fucking g six fifty

0:49:30.280 --> 0:49:31.479
<v Speaker 1>and fucking flew out here.

0:49:31.520 --> 0:49:35.319
<v Speaker 2>Rolling deep and uh, you know, Jesus, now.

0:49:35.360 --> 0:49:40.080
<v Speaker 1>What happens when street kids make some money. She's six

0:49:40.239 --> 0:49:42.560
<v Speaker 1>fifty and flat of New York and start a fucking.

0:49:42.400 --> 0:49:44.720
<v Speaker 2>Rumble, a legit rumble.

0:49:44.880 --> 0:49:46.520
<v Speaker 3>It's insane. Oh my god.

0:49:46.760 --> 0:49:48.400
<v Speaker 2>What's a fight day routine like for you?

0:49:48.840 --> 0:49:50.040
<v Speaker 3>Do you get? You get work out in?

0:49:50.640 --> 0:49:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? Yeah, every day. I get it.

0:49:52.080 --> 0:49:52.200
<v Speaker 7>You know.

0:49:52.280 --> 0:49:54.839
<v Speaker 1>I'm addicted to like cold plunging and and this. There's

0:49:54.840 --> 0:49:56.919
<v Speaker 1>this thing called the Superhuman Protocol. I do it every

0:49:56.960 --> 0:49:59.480
<v Speaker 1>morning every morning when I wake up, and uh, I

0:49:59.600 --> 0:50:02.440
<v Speaker 1>work out out and then I start my day. I literally,

0:50:02.520 --> 0:50:06.120
<v Speaker 1>now that I'm fucking fifty, I dedicate two hours of

0:50:06.160 --> 0:50:07.919
<v Speaker 1>my day to my health. Got you. Yeah.

0:50:08.800 --> 0:50:11.600
<v Speaker 2>Since I've retired, it's been so incorporated.

0:50:11.640 --> 0:50:14.239
<v Speaker 3>My life is so routine, you know, wake up in

0:50:14.280 --> 0:50:19.360
<v Speaker 3>the morning, body work, ball drills, meetings, body work before, practice,

0:50:19.400 --> 0:50:23.319
<v Speaker 3>body work after. Like when it's not your priority, When

0:50:23.800 --> 0:50:26.279
<v Speaker 3>your body is not your priority right now, you have to.

0:50:27.120 --> 0:50:29.960
<v Speaker 3>It's a mental toughness for a person to make it

0:50:30.040 --> 0:50:32.239
<v Speaker 3>a priority into their day.

0:50:32.320 --> 0:50:34.960
<v Speaker 1>And for you, what happens to a lot of athletes is,

0:50:36.000 --> 0:50:39.680
<v Speaker 1>how do you know, thirty seven thirty seven? So for

0:50:39.800 --> 0:50:43.160
<v Speaker 1>the last we'll call it fucking thirty years, probably the

0:50:43.200 --> 0:50:46.279
<v Speaker 1>last thirty years, it's been all physical for you. You've

0:50:46.480 --> 0:50:48.160
<v Speaker 1>just been working out and doing all the shit. A

0:50:48.200 --> 0:50:50.319
<v Speaker 1>lot of guys when they retire are like, yeah, I'm done,

0:50:50.880 --> 0:50:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not working and then I'll try to get their

0:50:52.520 --> 0:50:54.400
<v Speaker 1>health back till maybe ten years later.

0:50:54.480 --> 0:50:56.719
<v Speaker 3>You know. But I tried that. Like right when I

0:50:56.760 --> 0:50:59.279
<v Speaker 3>got out, I was so just mentally drained because I

0:50:59.760 --> 0:51:01.560
<v Speaker 3>tore the root of my meniscus and it was a

0:51:01.640 --> 0:51:04.120
<v Speaker 3>fucking grind. I couldn't walk until Friday and playing on

0:51:04.239 --> 0:51:07.120
<v Speaker 3>Sundays and like that was so raw my head were

0:51:07.200 --> 0:51:09.200
<v Speaker 3>like as soon as I retired, I kind of took

0:51:09.239 --> 0:51:10.840
<v Speaker 3>a chill break. And I was always a guy that

0:51:10.920 --> 0:51:12.960
<v Speaker 3>worked out all year round, which you.

0:51:12.960 --> 0:51:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Know, was a strength, but also making me. I broke

0:51:15.239 --> 0:51:16.239
<v Speaker 2>down my body because of it.

0:51:16.280 --> 0:51:19.279
<v Speaker 1>One hundred percent and I was like depressed.

0:51:19.880 --> 0:51:23.399
<v Speaker 3>When you work out, it releases an endorphin, Like when

0:51:23.440 --> 0:51:27.160
<v Speaker 3>you wake up, you work out, you accomplish something, it's

0:51:27.280 --> 0:51:29.319
<v Speaker 3>like then you're ready for the day.

0:51:29.760 --> 0:51:31.719
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't agree with you more. That's where I'm at, man,

0:51:31.920 --> 0:51:34.960
<v Speaker 1>That's exactly where I'm at. But yeah, I could see

0:51:34.960 --> 0:51:37.440
<v Speaker 1>how that could happen to an athlete when when they retire.

0:51:38.440 --> 0:51:41.399
<v Speaker 1>I gotta ask you a question. So you know you're

0:51:41.440 --> 0:51:43.879
<v Speaker 1>you're on one of the greatest teams of all time.

0:51:43.960 --> 0:51:47.000
<v Speaker 1>What you guys achieved and accomplished, the money, the you

0:51:47.080 --> 0:51:49.120
<v Speaker 1>know what it must feel like running through that fucking

0:51:49.160 --> 0:51:51.360
<v Speaker 1>tunnel end of the stadium. You know, whether you're in

0:51:51.440 --> 0:51:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Foxborough or you're going to another place where you're getting booed,

0:51:54.360 --> 0:51:56.880
<v Speaker 1>and you got the animosity in and that's fun to win.

0:51:57.320 --> 0:52:00.319
<v Speaker 1>How fucking hard is it to say, all right, I'm

0:52:00.360 --> 0:52:01.840
<v Speaker 1>gonna walk away from this now it's time to go.

0:52:02.680 --> 0:52:04.759
<v Speaker 1>Was it harder? Did you just feel like, you know

0:52:04.840 --> 0:52:05.359
<v Speaker 1>what it's time?

0:52:06.400 --> 0:52:10.399
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't hard for me because I respect the game

0:52:10.520 --> 0:52:13.160
<v Speaker 3>too much. And when I was turning on the film,

0:52:13.200 --> 0:52:16.160
<v Speaker 3>I wasn't looking like me. You know, when you turn

0:52:16.239 --> 0:52:20.799
<v Speaker 3>on the film and and things that were so remediately

0:52:21.000 --> 0:52:25.440
<v Speaker 3>easy started becoming hard. Like I was like, all right,

0:52:25.880 --> 0:52:27.600
<v Speaker 3>I'm not greedy. I love the game.

0:52:27.680 --> 0:52:30.120
<v Speaker 2>I've accomplished so much from this game.

0:52:31.080 --> 0:52:35.640
<v Speaker 3>I've went above and beyond anything I ever expected. I

0:52:35.719 --> 0:52:38.320
<v Speaker 3>got to get out of here just because I pissed

0:52:38.360 --> 0:52:40.279
<v Speaker 3>off a lot of people. You know, when you go

0:52:40.600 --> 0:52:42.799
<v Speaker 3>when you're in your prime, and I remember watching guys.

0:52:42.960 --> 0:52:45.319
<v Speaker 3>You go against guys, and when I was younger player,

0:52:45.400 --> 0:52:48.320
<v Speaker 3>they were in their prime and they dominated me. And

0:52:48.400 --> 0:52:50.120
<v Speaker 3>then I got into my prime and you could see

0:52:50.120 --> 0:52:52.279
<v Speaker 3>that they were getting out of their prime, and you

0:52:52.400 --> 0:52:55.960
<v Speaker 3>want to embarrass them. You know, there comes a point

0:52:56.000 --> 0:52:58.640
<v Speaker 3>where you can get hurt out there. If you're not

0:52:59.640 --> 0:53:00.600
<v Speaker 3>you know, you get hurt.

0:53:00.760 --> 0:53:02.480
<v Speaker 1>It's exactly.

0:53:03.840 --> 0:53:06.399
<v Speaker 3>You can get hurt if you're not cutting the same way.

0:53:06.560 --> 0:53:09.680
<v Speaker 3>You're a millisecond off. Guys are trying to tee off

0:53:09.719 --> 0:53:12.360
<v Speaker 3>on you. You've been on the Patriots, You've won so

0:53:12.520 --> 0:53:16.040
<v Speaker 3>much everyone, you were circled every year. You know, this

0:53:16.200 --> 0:53:18.759
<v Speaker 3>is the team you want to if guys are getting

0:53:18.800 --> 0:53:22.160
<v Speaker 3>paid off of that game, coaches were getting jobs off

0:53:22.200 --> 0:53:24.960
<v Speaker 3>of beating ut like, so it was one of those

0:53:24.960 --> 0:53:26.839
<v Speaker 3>things where it was hard and it hurt.

0:53:27.400 --> 0:53:27.600
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:53:27.800 --> 0:53:32.480
<v Speaker 3>It hurt me mentally, but it was like I was

0:53:32.560 --> 0:53:35.000
<v Speaker 3>so thankful that I got to have my career where

0:53:35.040 --> 0:53:37.200
<v Speaker 3>I had it. I got to play on one team

0:53:37.640 --> 0:53:40.160
<v Speaker 3>and I respected the game too much where you know,

0:53:40.239 --> 0:53:43.080
<v Speaker 3>I could have played two more years, right, it would

0:53:43.080 --> 0:53:46.040
<v Speaker 3>have been a fucking like what are you doing? I

0:53:46.080 --> 0:53:48.600
<v Speaker 3>didn't want to be that guy, right. I remember watching

0:53:48.640 --> 0:53:51.400
<v Speaker 3>those guys and when you hurt ye you. Yeah, the

0:53:51.520 --> 0:53:53.879
<v Speaker 3>root of my meniscus in the beginning of the year,

0:53:54.920 --> 0:53:57.160
<v Speaker 3>and and it's usually like a you can get this

0:53:57.360 --> 0:54:00.640
<v Speaker 3>micro fracture surgery that go in there, but it's like

0:54:00.760 --> 0:54:01.640
<v Speaker 3>twelve month recovery.

0:54:01.680 --> 0:54:02.399
<v Speaker 2>I was thirty four.

0:54:03.320 --> 0:54:05.200
<v Speaker 3>I was like, I'm gonna try to do it without it,

0:54:05.840 --> 0:54:09.640
<v Speaker 3>and it was just it was a grind mental You know,

0:54:09.840 --> 0:54:12.480
<v Speaker 3>when you're not healthy, that's what wears you out because

0:54:12.480 --> 0:54:13.960
<v Speaker 3>you have to go out and perform and there's a

0:54:14.080 --> 0:54:17.120
<v Speaker 3>standard and there's an expectation, right, you know, you've been

0:54:17.160 --> 0:54:19.520
<v Speaker 3>doing it for so long at such an elite level

0:54:20.160 --> 0:54:23.640
<v Speaker 3>that like when when it's it was so hard to

0:54:23.760 --> 0:54:25.400
<v Speaker 3>just get right. For a Sunday, I was like, I

0:54:25.440 --> 0:54:29.480
<v Speaker 3>can't what am I doing? Yeah, it was it wasn't

0:54:29.520 --> 0:54:30.240
<v Speaker 3>my time anymore.

0:54:31.080 --> 0:54:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Got to hang them up. It was tough.

0:54:33.600 --> 0:54:34.440
<v Speaker 1>How bad do you miss it?

0:54:35.120 --> 0:54:37.239
<v Speaker 2>I didn't start missing it until my body felt good.

0:54:37.520 --> 0:54:38.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that makes sense.

0:54:39.320 --> 0:54:41.960
<v Speaker 3>I remember. I was like there was a couple of

0:54:42.000 --> 0:54:43.480
<v Speaker 3>weeks in my last year where like, I don't know,

0:54:43.520 --> 0:54:45.680
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna fucking play this game. And I got like

0:54:45.760 --> 0:54:48.960
<v Speaker 3>a big game plan to me, you know, like we

0:54:49.080 --> 0:54:50.959
<v Speaker 3>were I'd have to go and run the day before

0:54:51.000 --> 0:54:53.160
<v Speaker 3>the game. It was COVID, so it was all fucking weird.

0:54:53.280 --> 0:54:56.920
<v Speaker 3>We couldn't like practice or certain certain things. And I

0:54:56.920 --> 0:54:59.720
<v Speaker 3>couldn't even walk Like we played against Seattle. I couldn't

0:54:59.760 --> 0:55:02.160
<v Speaker 3>walk the day before the game, like my knee was

0:55:02.200 --> 0:55:05.759
<v Speaker 3>blown up. And it's just that stress because you don't

0:55:05.920 --> 0:55:07.200
<v Speaker 3>I wanted to go out, you know what I mean.

0:55:07.280 --> 0:55:10.040
<v Speaker 3>There's an expectation of how you're supposed to be right,

0:55:10.560 --> 0:55:12.440
<v Speaker 3>and that that that wore on me, you know, and

0:55:12.520 --> 0:55:13.799
<v Speaker 3>it broke me down a little bit.

0:55:14.120 --> 0:55:16.800
<v Speaker 1>You know what's interesting when you say that, it was

0:55:16.880 --> 0:55:19.640
<v Speaker 1>when you started to your body started to heal. It's

0:55:19.719 --> 0:55:22.960
<v Speaker 1>like these fighters, like there'll be a great fight we'll

0:55:23.000 --> 0:55:24.680
<v Speaker 1>have on Saturday night, right, and I'll go back to

0:55:24.760 --> 0:55:26.840
<v Speaker 1>the press conference and the media will start asking me

0:55:26.920 --> 0:55:30.680
<v Speaker 1>when's you know, when's this guy going to fight again?

0:55:30.719 --> 0:55:33.279
<v Speaker 1>It's like, he just fucking we just finished the show.

0:55:33.760 --> 0:55:35.640
<v Speaker 1>What are you talking about? We don't even call these

0:55:35.680 --> 0:55:39.000
<v Speaker 1>guys for weeks till after. You gotta let Once they

0:55:39.080 --> 0:55:40.960
<v Speaker 1>start to go home, you know, they've been away from

0:55:40.960 --> 0:55:43.160
<v Speaker 1>their families, they've been cutting weight, they've been stressed out

0:55:43.160 --> 0:55:45.239
<v Speaker 1>about the fight. The fight's over now, they're all banged up.

0:55:45.520 --> 0:55:47.719
<v Speaker 1>You let them get past all that. When you're when

0:55:47.760 --> 0:55:49.839
<v Speaker 1>you're that type of an athlete, like you just said,

0:55:50.080 --> 0:55:52.200
<v Speaker 1>you start to get antsy. Once you start to feel good,

0:55:52.560 --> 0:55:54.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, then you start to think about what's next

0:55:54.600 --> 0:55:56.520
<v Speaker 1>and all this other stuff. But when you're beat up

0:55:56.719 --> 0:55:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and they don't even want to fucking talk about it,

0:55:58.560 --> 0:55:59.880
<v Speaker 1>think about no, that's what.

0:56:00.000 --> 0:56:04.279
<v Speaker 3>I You know, when the season would end every year,

0:56:04.440 --> 0:56:07.680
<v Speaker 3>Belichick would always say, don't be calling me, you know

0:56:07.880 --> 0:56:10.880
<v Speaker 3>right after the season, saying you're gonna retire.

0:56:11.040 --> 0:56:12.839
<v Speaker 2>Like, take a fucking second.

0:56:12.800 --> 0:56:14.919
<v Speaker 3>You know what I mean, Because you were right after

0:56:15.000 --> 0:56:18.360
<v Speaker 3>a battle, right after a fucking eighteen twenty week season.

0:56:18.880 --> 0:56:21.680
<v Speaker 3>You're beat up mentally, it's been a fucking grind all year.

0:56:21.760 --> 0:56:23.880
<v Speaker 3>You just want to you know, your you know, you

0:56:24.040 --> 0:56:26.800
<v Speaker 3>let it make a decision a couple you know, just

0:56:26.920 --> 0:56:27.680
<v Speaker 3>like what you guys do.

0:56:30.040 --> 0:56:31.239
<v Speaker 2>Let's get back to the fight, Jack.

0:56:31.560 --> 0:56:34.040
<v Speaker 5>Round three, Connor comes out and gets it bounce.

0:56:36.280 --> 0:56:38.440
<v Speaker 2>I thought Habib was kind of like getting his wind

0:56:38.640 --> 0:56:39.439
<v Speaker 2>in the third round.

0:56:39.640 --> 0:56:41.799
<v Speaker 5>It was you were here in the commentary a little bit.

0:56:41.800 --> 0:56:44.600
<v Speaker 5>The muscles were full of blood, all that ground and pound,

0:56:44.680 --> 0:56:46.800
<v Speaker 5>all that domination in those first two rounds, he was

0:56:46.840 --> 0:56:50.279
<v Speaker 5>a little slower, not like didn't look like off, but

0:56:50.400 --> 0:56:54.719
<v Speaker 5>it was a little slower, I would think, right, Connor,

0:56:54.960 --> 0:56:55.839
<v Speaker 5>hebben round three.

0:56:56.680 --> 0:56:58.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, man, I don't know. You know, I

0:56:58.960 --> 0:57:01.200
<v Speaker 1>can't remember what the stat is and if he ever

0:57:01.360 --> 0:57:03.960
<v Speaker 1>did lose one, but he Bib hadn't lost a round, right,

0:57:04.000 --> 0:57:07.400
<v Speaker 1>That was the first one whole frigging career, right, And

0:57:08.840 --> 0:57:11.360
<v Speaker 1>he uh, he was one of those guys that seemed

0:57:11.360 --> 0:57:14.040
<v Speaker 1>to get more dominant as the fight went on because

0:57:14.080 --> 0:57:16.520
<v Speaker 1>he was actually wearing you out and grinding you. And

0:57:18.080 --> 0:57:19.760
<v Speaker 1>but I don't I don't remember how he.

0:57:19.840 --> 0:57:22.400
<v Speaker 3>Was energy a little bit, that's the same same, And

0:57:22.440 --> 0:57:23.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't think he was going to bring him to

0:57:23.600 --> 0:57:23.959
<v Speaker 3>the ground.

0:57:24.000 --> 0:57:26.600
<v Speaker 2>He was, Yeah, it wasn't like he was with Yes,

0:57:26.680 --> 0:57:27.600
<v Speaker 2>he was toying with Connor.

0:57:27.760 --> 0:57:30.840
<v Speaker 5>The only other round he ever lost was justin gafee, so.

0:57:31.560 --> 0:57:33.520
<v Speaker 1>That was on the judge of scorecard he lost.

0:57:33.800 --> 0:57:39.160
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but then round four comes out that crank is

0:57:39.200 --> 0:57:40.880
<v Speaker 5>it thanks to the ground.

0:57:40.920 --> 0:57:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Wanted to change his face.

0:57:42.240 --> 0:57:44.120
<v Speaker 5>Wanted to change his face. That was the quote from

0:57:44.120 --> 0:57:46.560
<v Speaker 5>the from the All of two twenty nine.

0:57:46.600 --> 0:57:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Honestly, geez, I can't even imagine, because I know, like

0:57:52.160 --> 0:57:55.080
<v Speaker 3>what you're thinking, because I've been arrested and should had

0:57:55.120 --> 0:57:58.440
<v Speaker 3>to deal with the commission stuff. I couldn't even imagine

0:57:58.480 --> 0:58:01.440
<v Speaker 3>what was going through your mind when you see the

0:58:01.560 --> 0:58:03.680
<v Speaker 3>melee is going up after the fucking fight.

0:58:04.440 --> 0:58:04.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, just a.

0:58:04.920 --> 0:58:08.560
<v Speaker 1>Liability, especially when we were expecting it. We were expecting

0:58:08.600 --> 0:58:11.120
<v Speaker 1>it and we were ready for it, and it's still happened.

0:58:11.160 --> 0:58:12.920
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's yeah, it's it's a.

0:58:13.280 --> 0:58:15.760
<v Speaker 2>Fucking two testos round up. Motherfuckers.

0:58:15.920 --> 0:58:17.840
<v Speaker 7>Just disappointing because I mean it's one of those like

0:58:18.080 --> 0:58:20.440
<v Speaker 7>the lead up was so crazy that like there had

0:58:20.440 --> 0:58:23.120
<v Speaker 7>to be that ex sale of like when it actually started,

0:58:23.160 --> 0:58:25.200
<v Speaker 7>like all right, we got to this point and then

0:58:25.240 --> 0:58:26.800
<v Speaker 7>it ends and afterwards like that's insane.

0:58:27.480 --> 0:58:31.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's yeah. People think that because I'm a promoter,

0:58:31.760 --> 0:58:33.560
<v Speaker 1>that that that stuff's good for us. It's not good

0:58:33.600 --> 0:58:36.840
<v Speaker 1>for us because the Commission, you know, and we're the

0:58:36.920 --> 0:58:39.400
<v Speaker 1>biggest and baddest in all of combat sports, so we're

0:58:39.400 --> 0:58:41.720
<v Speaker 1>the ones to make the example out of when it

0:58:41.760 --> 0:58:42.280
<v Speaker 1>does happen.

0:58:42.880 --> 0:58:45.560
<v Speaker 3>I mean, you gotta gotta lay down the law. Did

0:58:45.920 --> 0:58:48.200
<v Speaker 3>would you you find find him or something?

0:58:48.240 --> 0:58:50.200
<v Speaker 1>Where they did? What did they find them? Two million bucks?

0:58:51.280 --> 0:58:56.200
<v Speaker 1>Two million dollars fine? Believe got fined two million dollars. Yeah,

0:58:56.520 --> 0:58:58.959
<v Speaker 1>you gotta find two million dollars. That's no fucking joke.

0:58:59.080 --> 0:59:02.800
<v Speaker 1>So that's how how much they frowned on this shit happening. Yeah,

0:59:03.440 --> 0:59:04.720
<v Speaker 1>two million dollar fine.

0:59:04.760 --> 0:59:07.240
<v Speaker 3>I mean he got to he gotta do that. And

0:59:07.840 --> 0:59:14.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm a I'm a player guy. Joe Rogan incredible, unbelievable yep,

0:59:14.840 --> 0:59:16.120
<v Speaker 3>when you you hired him?

0:59:16.240 --> 0:59:19.160
<v Speaker 1>M hm yeah, what year? Shit? I mean he was

0:59:19.400 --> 0:59:21.960
<v Speaker 1>he literally was doing fear factor when I hired him.

0:59:22.920 --> 0:59:25.880
<v Speaker 1>So when we bought the UFC, the company was based

0:59:25.920 --> 0:59:28.000
<v Speaker 1>in New York. So I jumped on a plane, flew

0:59:28.000 --> 0:59:30.560
<v Speaker 1>out to New York and started cleaning out the old offices.

0:59:30.640 --> 0:59:33.200
<v Speaker 1>I was emptying all these boxes and and and sending

0:59:33.240 --> 0:59:36.160
<v Speaker 1>ship to Vegas that I thought I needed to keep

0:59:36.200 --> 0:59:39.520
<v Speaker 1>from from the office, and I had a VCR because

0:59:39.520 --> 0:59:41.880
<v Speaker 1>they had fucking tapes for days. I mean I must

0:59:41.920 --> 0:59:44.160
<v Speaker 1>have watched two hundred and fifty three hundred tapes to

0:59:44.240 --> 0:59:46.520
<v Speaker 1>make sure that it wasn't anything whatever. So I popped

0:59:46.560 --> 0:59:49.320
<v Speaker 1>in this tape and there was this talk show, the

0:59:49.720 --> 0:59:52.440
<v Speaker 1>Keenan Ivory Wayan Show, The Oldest Wayan brother had his

0:59:52.520 --> 0:59:54.880
<v Speaker 1>own talk show, and they had Joe Rogan on there,

0:59:55.280 --> 0:59:57.400
<v Speaker 1>and Joe Rogan was talking about and I knew Joe

0:59:57.480 --> 0:59:59.800
<v Speaker 1>Rogan from Fear Factor, you know, I would watch on

0:59:59.840 --> 1:00:03.600
<v Speaker 1>t and Joe Rogan was talking about how bad ass

1:00:03.760 --> 1:00:06.040
<v Speaker 1>UFC fighters were and what they would really do to

1:00:06.120 --> 1:00:08.080
<v Speaker 1>some of these karate guys that were in movies and

1:00:08.120 --> 1:00:10.240
<v Speaker 1>shit like that. And I was like, man, this guy

1:00:10.360 --> 1:00:13.960
<v Speaker 1>knows what he's talking about. He's smart, he's funny, he's articulate.

1:00:14.520 --> 1:00:16.920
<v Speaker 1>So I reached out to Rogan. At that time, I

1:00:17.040 --> 1:00:18.919
<v Speaker 1>think it was on the internet, you know, I reached

1:00:18.960 --> 1:00:21.720
<v Speaker 1>out to him. We started talking and I asked him

1:00:21.720 --> 1:00:23.080
<v Speaker 1>if he would like to work for us and be

1:00:23.160 --> 1:00:25.960
<v Speaker 1>a commentator. So if you look at where the UFC

1:00:26.160 --> 1:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>was at that time, you know, we were losing money

1:00:29.840 --> 1:00:31.959
<v Speaker 1>like crazy. We bought it for two million, which sounds

1:00:31.960 --> 1:00:33.920
<v Speaker 1>like a great story. Now we ended up being like

1:00:33.960 --> 1:00:37.400
<v Speaker 1>almost forty million in the hole before we turned it around.

1:00:37.800 --> 1:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>But Joe Rogan did like the first twelve or thirteen

1:00:40.040 --> 1:00:42.680
<v Speaker 1>shows for free. He said, fuck yeah, I'll come there

1:00:42.680 --> 1:00:44.280
<v Speaker 1>and do it and sit in the best seats in

1:00:44.320 --> 1:00:46.640
<v Speaker 1>the house and everything else. So Joe and I have

1:00:46.720 --> 1:00:49.520
<v Speaker 1>been super close friends for a very long time. I

1:00:49.560 --> 1:00:50.760
<v Speaker 1>would do anything for Joe Rogan.

1:00:50.800 --> 1:00:53.520
<v Speaker 5>He's killed It came in at UFC eleven. You in

1:00:53.560 --> 1:00:54.560
<v Speaker 5>the backstage interviews.

1:00:54.960 --> 1:00:57.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so before we bought the company, he worked for

1:00:57.760 --> 1:01:00.880
<v Speaker 1>a little while for the UFC. He was a backstage interviewer. Yeah,

1:01:01.200 --> 1:01:04.120
<v Speaker 1>and then but I didn't even know that when I

1:01:04.200 --> 1:01:05.400
<v Speaker 1>saw the videotape of them.

1:01:05.720 --> 1:01:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Did you have anyone else in mind for that role

1:01:08.440 --> 1:01:10.000
<v Speaker 2>or was it just Joe Rogan.

1:01:09.840 --> 1:01:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Was So when I came in, I sort of took

1:01:12.400 --> 1:01:14.880
<v Speaker 1>over all the production and revamped all the you know,

1:01:15.480 --> 1:01:20.040
<v Speaker 1>the the commentators and who was going to interview. So

1:01:20.600 --> 1:01:23.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you look at our production now, it's

1:01:23.200 --> 1:01:27.480
<v Speaker 1>fucking Our production is so on point. But it took

1:01:27.560 --> 1:01:28.720
<v Speaker 1>twenty three years to get there.

1:01:28.800 --> 1:01:30.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean it takes a lot of time to

1:01:31.000 --> 1:01:33.360
<v Speaker 3>refine routines, and you're constantly still doing it.

1:01:33.400 --> 1:01:36.200
<v Speaker 1>I betred percent. Yes, we're still evolving.

1:01:36.760 --> 1:01:39.160
<v Speaker 3>You when you're green, you grow, and you're ripe, you're rot.

1:01:39.320 --> 1:01:41.480
<v Speaker 1>That's what my dad used to tell me. Is your

1:01:41.600 --> 1:01:44.000
<v Speaker 1>dad a football coach? Yeah, yeah, it sounds like it.

1:01:44.080 --> 1:01:48.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he was a fucking he was shout out Frank,

1:01:48.440 --> 1:01:53.200
<v Speaker 3>shout out Frank Beab's legacy in UFC. One of the

1:01:53.200 --> 1:01:56.000
<v Speaker 3>greatest of all time, one of the greatest. Connor yep,

1:01:57.640 --> 1:01:58.920
<v Speaker 3>one of the one of the one of the biggest

1:01:58.960 --> 1:02:01.560
<v Speaker 3>superstars ever. I think it was the first guy to

1:02:01.600 --> 1:02:04.800
<v Speaker 3>win two titles in two different weight classes, and and

1:02:04.880 --> 1:02:07.800
<v Speaker 3>the guy who really took the company to another level

1:02:07.840 --> 1:02:10.960
<v Speaker 3>all throughout Europe. Yeah, and more importantly, who's your favorite

1:02:11.000 --> 1:02:13.560
<v Speaker 3>fighter of all times?

1:02:13.640 --> 1:02:15.960
<v Speaker 1>It's hard to say that I have a favorite fighter Connor.

1:02:16.640 --> 1:02:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Connor has been an incredible partner, you know what I mean.

1:02:20.360 --> 1:02:23.480
<v Speaker 1>Usually when you get guys that are that big a superstars,

1:02:23.760 --> 1:02:27.400
<v Speaker 1>they go they become total egomaniacs and they go against

1:02:27.480 --> 1:02:30.240
<v Speaker 1>the fucking and do whatever. Connor McGregor is for a

1:02:30.360 --> 1:02:32.080
<v Speaker 1>kid that you know, when when you think about it,

1:02:32.160 --> 1:02:34.000
<v Speaker 1>he was he was almost called the Dole when we

1:02:34.080 --> 1:02:38.080
<v Speaker 1>signed him, which is basically he was on welfare. Think

1:02:38.120 --> 1:02:43.400
<v Speaker 1>about where he came from. The business sense that this

1:02:43.560 --> 1:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>kid had is fascinating. And Connor McGregor, everybody always asked me,

1:02:48.720 --> 1:02:50.800
<v Speaker 1>is he a nightmare of dealers? And know he's actually not.

1:02:51.160 --> 1:02:54.440
<v Speaker 1>He's actually a really good partner and and he understands

1:02:54.520 --> 1:02:57.000
<v Speaker 1>the business, and you know, he's actually been great to

1:02:57.080 --> 1:02:59.200
<v Speaker 1>work with. So Connor is one of my all time favorite.

1:02:59.280 --> 1:03:02.720
<v Speaker 1>Ronda Rousey probably the greatest that I've ever worked with.

1:03:03.080 --> 1:03:06.240
<v Speaker 1>Anything you needed, whatever it was, Ronda was willing to

1:03:06.360 --> 1:03:11.200
<v Speaker 1>do it. And you know, I have a really really

1:03:11.440 --> 1:03:15.200
<v Speaker 1>incredible relationship with Chuck Ladell. Chuck Lidell one of my

1:03:15.280 --> 1:03:19.840
<v Speaker 1>first big superstars, and you know, helped help bid the spot.

1:03:20.560 --> 1:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>And there's there's so many different people along the way,

1:03:24.000 --> 1:03:27.080
<v Speaker 1>and I feel bad not saying everybody. I've worked with

1:03:27.200 --> 1:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>lots of incredible people in my career. And then that

1:03:31.480 --> 1:03:35.040
<v Speaker 1>doesn't include my staff, the woman sitting behind me, the

1:03:35.120 --> 1:03:37.280
<v Speaker 1>only person in the world that I actually listened to

1:03:37.480 --> 1:03:40.920
<v Speaker 1>and uh respect opinions from and and and many other

1:03:40.960 --> 1:03:42.160
<v Speaker 1>people in our organization.

1:03:42.800 --> 1:03:44.080
<v Speaker 2>Top three fights of all time.

1:03:44.680 --> 1:03:51.760
<v Speaker 1>Jones Gustafson McGregor. Habib and I have to pick this

1:03:51.880 --> 1:03:55.440
<v Speaker 1>one because you know, going into when we first started

1:03:55.440 --> 1:03:58.880
<v Speaker 1>bringing women into the UFC, the backlash we got, how

1:03:59.000 --> 1:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I said women would never fight in the UFC. The

1:04:01.480 --> 1:04:04.040
<v Speaker 1>list goes on. And on the night that Ronda Rosie

1:04:04.080 --> 1:04:08.800
<v Speaker 1>fought Carmouche down in southern California, place was sold out.

1:04:09.080 --> 1:04:11.480
<v Speaker 1>When Ronda walked out of the tunnel, the place fucking

1:04:11.600 --> 1:04:13.880
<v Speaker 1>erupted and went crazy. And I stood around. I looked

1:04:13.920 --> 1:04:16.320
<v Speaker 1>around and said, I made the right decision, and now

1:04:16.400 --> 1:04:19.760
<v Speaker 1>look at where women's fighting is now. Yeah, so me

1:04:19.920 --> 1:04:21.720
<v Speaker 1>personally by top three.

1:04:22.120 --> 1:04:22.920
<v Speaker 2>Wow, she was.

1:04:23.080 --> 1:04:25.600
<v Speaker 3>She was an absolute rock star. It was almost like

1:04:25.680 --> 1:04:28.240
<v Speaker 3>when she when she lost, she finally lost, it was

1:04:28.320 --> 1:04:31.160
<v Speaker 3>like it was a big deal. It was huge. You

1:04:31.280 --> 1:04:32.320
<v Speaker 3>never thought she could lose.

1:04:32.560 --> 1:04:36.840
<v Speaker 1>We were in Australia in a soccer stadium, right, No,

1:04:37.200 --> 1:04:40.080
<v Speaker 1>Holly Home, Holly Home in a soccer stadium.

1:04:40.760 --> 1:04:42.480
<v Speaker 2>Soccer that's how big she was.

1:04:42.760 --> 1:04:47.360
<v Speaker 1>Forty seven thousand people for a woman's fight. You two

1:04:47.440 --> 1:04:51.680
<v Speaker 1>women fighting forty seven thousand people in another country, and

1:04:51.800 --> 1:04:54.000
<v Speaker 1>the and the two women involved in the main event

1:04:54.080 --> 1:04:56.680
<v Speaker 1>weren't Australian. Yeahs fucking crazy.

1:04:57.400 --> 1:05:01.480
<v Speaker 3>That's a testament to you taking that making that it's crazy,

1:05:01.840 --> 1:05:02.680
<v Speaker 3>that's unbelievable.

1:05:02.720 --> 1:05:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Jack. Do we do we miss anything?

1:05:04.240 --> 1:05:06.760

<v Speaker 3>remember I had to walk with the trainer. We were

1:05:50.960 --> 1:05:52.800
