We barely got it back on 13 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,640 Speaker 2: the track. It was more like Morning Combat tape delayed, 14 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:45,920 Speaker 2: not really in the morning. Hey, we made the show happen. 15 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,159 Speaker 1: Actually, technically we don't even know if we're live right now. 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 1: We're just assuming. 17 00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, being wise, we actually don't really know. But we're back. 18 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 1: Man. 19 00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,320 Speaker 2: Here is the dome, back with the base. A couple 20 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 2: weeks after jury, Dudy, how'd you survive there? 21 00:00:57,480 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: I managed to tell people how much I didn't want 22 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:02,120 Speaker 1: to do it. I won't say quite the terms that 23 00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: I used to get out of it. I got out 24 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 1: of it twice. I got selected from Vardier. Then I 25 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: told them why I couldn't do it. They're like, okay, 26 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 1: go back to the quick. 27 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: Did take them to figure out that you're actually a communist? 28 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,559 Speaker 1: Well, I don't think communism is outright disqualifying at any event. 29 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: And then they selected me for a second time in 30 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:19,840 Speaker 1: the afternoon. I got out of that one too, so 31 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: I was pretty excited. 32 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,760 Speaker 2: Did you take in the show this show while you 33 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:24,680 Speaker 2: were sitting there? 34 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Well, but you mentioned that. I figured, hey, by my 35 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: one thirty lunch break, I can go back and I 36 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: can watch the show. And then there was no show, 37 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:32,960 Speaker 1: so I didn't actually watch him. 38 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: All right, Labor Day weekend is behind us. We're fired up. 39 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,360 Speaker 2: Go away on the lake story? Is it laborious? Did 40 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 2: you knock anybody up? 41 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:42,280 Speaker 1: The most important thing in my life right now is 42 00:01:42,319 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 1: to get sleep right because my kid is four months old, 43 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: and so we finally got a sleep trained. I don't 44 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,440 Speaker 1: know how long it's gonna last, but right now in 45 00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,280 Speaker 1: Shola got twelve hours a night. So the trick is 46 00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:53,320 Speaker 1: I found every two hours she got to put her down. 47 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 1: And then I got this thing called the sleep suit 48 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: works like a charm. 49 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,800 Speaker 2: The sleep suit. Is that like a straight jacket for children? 50 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,800 Speaker 1: Well, isn't it? Isn't that what a swaddle is? This 51 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,080 Speaker 1: is a straight jacket for kids, right in a way anyway. 52 00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: So the point being is I didn't go anywhere because 53 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: most important is keep her on schedule. I did watch 54 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,560 Speaker 1: UFC two forty two. This is true story at a 55 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:13,839 Speaker 1: baby shower. I had to go to a baby shower, 56 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,239 Speaker 1: and I'm like, here's the deal. I'm not going unless 57 00:02:16,240 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: there's the fights on. And the person who owned the 58 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: home bought the thing, so I actually got to watch 59 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,239 Speaker 1: all of there except the come main and man, I watch. 60 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 2: We'll have time later in the show. I'd love to 61 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:26,680 Speaker 2: hear parenting tips from a guy who who plays dying 62 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: animals around the house as the kids just grown up. 63 00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 1: My daughter's first concert, this is true story in when 64 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,880 Speaker 1: she was in utero was dying fetus. That is not 65 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,959 Speaker 1: an exaggeration. I took my pregnant wife to a dying 66 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 1: fetus country. 67 00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,280 Speaker 2: She born inside of swimming pool like the cover of Hirvana. 68 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: Never mind, no, no, all natural sibling memorial.

So you c two 103 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 1: forty two. Over the weekend, habib Nurmaga made off what 104 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: do you want to say? Easily defending his UFC lightweight 105 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: title against now former interim champion Dustin Poire, winning a 106 00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: third round rear naked choke Brian. The question has become 107 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: at twenty eight to oh who on earth can beat 108 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 1: this man? Here's what I was thinking about, and I 109 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: dove into this when you so rudely interrupted me during 110 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 1: Morning Combat dissected, which. 111 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,960 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, sorry, Professor Salt and Pepper. 112 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: Just like walks in the room like Michigan J. Frogg 113 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: strutting down the street, like what are you doing? All right, 114 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: here's the point, though, the answer is twenty eight have tried, 115 00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 1: twenty eight have failed. It doesn't mean he's invincible. What 116 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:31,440 Speaker 1: it means is you'll know it's the same thing, Brian. 117 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: They all try to say, I'm gonna resist the takedown, 118 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: and then when he gets the takedown, I'm gonna try 119 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 1: and stand up. And what happens They lose me a wrestling, 120 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 1: they get submitted, or they get ground and pound to death. 121 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:43,280 Speaker 1: That is not a method that anyone can do. Dustin 122 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 1: Pourier couldn't do it, Conor McGregor couldn't do it. How 123 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: Felo Dosanjos couldn't do it, Michael Johnson couldn't do it, 124 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: and the list goes on and on. For people to 125 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,080 Speaker 1: think that that's the way to beat him, it just 126 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: isn't anymore. Somebody's got to try something different. Now. I 127 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: don't know if Tony Ferguson's jiu jitsu is the way 128 00:04:57,800 --> 00:04:59,359 Speaker 1: that it gets done. But here's what I do know 129 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: that's different. Here's what I also KNOWE You've never got 130 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 1: made off, never been knocked down, never even been cut. 131 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:07,159 Speaker 1: He's never even been cut. You mean to tell me 132 00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: that Tony slashing elbows couldn't get that done. 133 00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:13,680 Speaker 2: Here, all I'm saying Mat Dolly couldn't get him cut. 134 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: Exactly, The point being is I don't know exactly what 135 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: beats him. Here's what I know what doesn't beat him. 136 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: The same old game plan that every coach keeps trying 137 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:25,599 Speaker 1: to implement, doesn't Poarier. Brian is super talented. 138 00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:26,919 Speaker 2: That's the whole look at this argument. 139 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,640 Speaker 1: Last thing I'll say this, I'll toss the botania. I'm 140 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: just pointing out if someone like doesn't Parier, who said 141 00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,600 Speaker 1: he was well prepared, who's had forty fights, who's a 142 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: black belt in jiu jitsu, if that's as close as 143 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,600 Speaker 1: he could come with that game plan, that's a failed 144 00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 1: game plan. 145 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: I love that you said twenty eight I've tried because 146 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,600 Speaker 2: it's the Floyd way Mayweather reference, because Habib is sort 147 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 2: of entering Mayweather territory in here right, sucking the entertainment 148 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 2: out of the fight. But I'm not using that as 149 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: a negative to win on his own terms and win 150 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 2: so dominantly and technically that I'm on the point that 151 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 2: I go, Luke, maybe SALTMN Pepper professor has to get 152 00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 2: up right now? How does Habib do the voodoo that 153 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: he do? Because what I'm watching is a man who 154 00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 2: just sticks to people. And it's not that I didn't 155 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 2: predict him to win. It's not that I didn't think 156 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: he could win, but win this dominantly on this level 157 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: against a fighter you just nailed it in Pourier, who 158 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 2: has willed himself and evolved to the super elite level. 159 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 2: Would I have predicted it went down that way where 160 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 2: each round, as soon as the first takedown happened, that 161 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:22,520 Speaker 2: round was over. No, I thought, if I still think 162 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 2: in my heart Tony Ferguson's the only one, and we 163 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,880 Speaker 2: can shelf that discussion for five seconds, I really thought 164 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,280 Speaker 2: Pourier was out a point where he had the perfectly 165 00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 2: evolved and the variety in his striking game to be 166 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 2: the type of guy who, yeah, he's gonna be taken down, 167 00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:37,279 Speaker 2: but he's strong enough and big enough to get back up, 168 00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 2: and then he's gonna make it a fight, right, not 169 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 2: one putch knock out power, but he's gonna chop, and 170 00:06:41,240 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: he's gonna work. He's gonna like, he's gonna do those things. 171 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,920 Speaker 2: I never would have predicted that he'll be. Could could 172 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: make him look like Pat Healy, could make him look 173 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:56,239 Speaker 2: like Camille Shallow Roos, could make him look like Darryl Horcher, 174 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: and and like could just make this a plus fighter, 175 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: and that's who Pourier kind of became. The last three 176 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,040 Speaker 2: or four fights really make him look average, and that 177 00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,920 Speaker 2: speaks to it's not that I didn't know Habib was great, 178 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,560 Speaker 2: but he's getting greater by the day. He's evolving, even 179 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 2: his striking, which I know he's you know, he's one dimensional, 180 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 2: but as jose Son would say, there's so many dimensions 181 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: inside that one dimension that he's insanely good. But the 182 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 2: way that he sets up his takedowns and maybe he 183 00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 2: broke it down on the chalk board with some of 184 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 2: those combinations upstairs, agains right just exactly l on brilliant, 185 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 2: to the point that, yes, we need to have that conversation. 186 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 2: Who out there has a shot at doing this right 187 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 2: now outside of the typical bad luck that can happen 188 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,880 Speaker 2: in MMA one shot, Outside of Habib, who I never 189 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 2: would guess by the way tanking himself and not taking 190 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 2: training seriously, he doesn't seem a candidate for that. He 191 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: seems like an absolute machine. Outside of that, Now that 192 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: he's figured out this level of prime, it's Tony Ferguson 193 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 2: and it's nobody else lives. 194 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: So here's what I was thinking, about you go back 195 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 1: and watch the fight. What was the only time Habib 196 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: was in any kind of danger, any kind of danger? 197 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: Two points the guillotines. No, the two punches to open 198 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 1: round two. Yeah, I think that's overstating a little bit. 199 00:07:59,360 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 1: They hurt, but they did. 200 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 2: He took steps back in reset and that's not. 201 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,640 Speaker 1: But that's a boxing consideration on an MMA one. 202 00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 2: All right, but let's don't act like he wasn't. 203 00:08:06,320 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, he got stung, He got got stung. Yeah, but 204 00:08:08,080 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: he was in danger. Here's the difference when those guillotines 205 00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: were on that that Remember Dustin applied it once twice 206 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: and then three times. The second of the three was 207 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: the closest. What did you notice about Habib's behavior? He 208 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 1: went to a hip, He actually rolled, He rolled like 209 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: a fish. Uh, just completely over. My point being is 210 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 1: you can't wrestle him that way. But the jiu jitsu application, 211 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,559 Speaker 1: the guillotine choke made Habib choose to go down that way. 212 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:35,160 Speaker 1: No again, this is not me saying jiu jitsu beat Sabib, 213 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: or even Tony's jiu jitsu bet Sabib. It's me saying, well, 214 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 1: that's gotta be a lot better than just trying to 215 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,400 Speaker 1: slowly build your way back up against the guy whose 216 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 1: game is predicated on you doing just that very thing. 217 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 1: You gotta shake it up. Maybe Justin Gai Chee's the guy. 218 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 1: Maybe Justin Gaygee can go in there and stop the 219 00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 1: take down and then just bruise him up and man again, 220 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: never been knocked down, never been. Someone's got it. Someone's 221 00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:00,680 Speaker 1: gotta break new grounds here, Tony and Justin too wild Man. 222 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: I think to at least con. 223 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 2: Wildman is the key. And that's why the Floyd Mayweather 224 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 2: comparison in this case actually makes sense for two reasons. 225 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 2: One because Mayweather started making it look so easy that 226 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:11,280 Speaker 2: people stopped being able to understand what they're watching. Right, 227 00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:12,679 Speaker 2: It's just sort of like, oh, it's boring, and look 228 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: what he's doing out there. He's not doing anything. No, 229 00:09:14,240 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 2: he's doing absolute subtle brilliance and that what is what 230 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 2: Habib's doing. But the other thing on that is Pourier 231 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: was almost in the end he's great, but he's basically great, 232 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 2: right everything he was going to be able to bring 233 00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: in the end. Obib's got that studied, he's got it scientifically. 234 00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:32,600 Speaker 2: How he's going to break it apart? Same thing we 235 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 2: said about Floyd's second half as a Walter White pa 236 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,560 Speaker 2: per view star. If you come at him traditionally right 237 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 2: handed one two, he knows how to break that down 238 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,080 Speaker 2: in his sleep. He'll need two rounds at most, and 239 00:09:43,120 --> 00:09:44,840 Speaker 2: he's got you figured out and he's pot shotting you 240 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 2: the rest of the fight. The reason why Tony Ferguson 241 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:50,560 Speaker 2: is the only guy remaining is because he potentially is 242 00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 2: that Marcos Madonna for Floyd, even though he's much more 243 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 2: technically solidar than twice. But the point about the first 244 00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:57,600 Speaker 2: Madonna fight and the reason why he's able to push 245 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,840 Speaker 2: that to a majority decision and be the closest anyone 246 00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 2: since Castill to beating Floyd, is that it was wild. 247 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 2: It was from left field. There was nothing traditional about 248 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 2: what he was doing. Habib is almost on a Floyd 249 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,600 Speaker 2: level where he has beaten the game. The chessboard is his. 250 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:14,280 Speaker 2: He knows a counter for every single move. The only 251 00:10:14,280 --> 00:10:15,599 Speaker 2: way you're gonna have a chance is to take that 252 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: chess board and flip it upside down, right. And that's 253 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 2: why Ferguson, with the mixture of the ground game with 254 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: the psychotic mentality to love pain and walk into it 255 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,960 Speaker 2: and be fine in that fire. He's like Shad rats 256 00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 2: me shots and Ed begingal. He'll live in the flames. 257 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 2: He'll be there. It's no problem for him. And you 258 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,520 Speaker 2: mix in the variety of striking. That's the fight. The 259 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: fifth time will be the charm. Do nothing, do not 260 00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 2: pass go but make that fight UFC. Because this on paper, 261 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 2: I can't remember a time for the hardcorees that there 262 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 2: was a better on paper matchup. Forget pay per view buys, 263 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:52,400 Speaker 2: forget celebrities, forget grudges xes versus o's. This is a dream. 264 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: And I would also add Tony Ferguson is a guy 265 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: who looks for offense everywhere, from his guard, from his elbows, 266 00:10:58,840 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: off his back. Standing takes risks why he's fan friendly, 267 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:03,880 Speaker 1: but it's also why he can overwhelm. He gets hit 268 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,319 Speaker 1: a little bit, but then he just drills right through 269 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 1: and finds a way to score no matter what. And 270 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,840 Speaker 1: if Abbe shoots in, he scores up that or secures 271 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: the and a Kona choke. Again. I don't know if 272 00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:14,600 Speaker 1: that will win, but that's got to be a much 273 00:11:14,600 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 1: better option. 274 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 2: Well, so quickly Habib was picking up Pourier's patterns. He 275 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 2: caught that second kick. First kick was a nice inside leg, 276 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 2: kicking him firm. He started catching kicks. He was basically 277 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: taking away Pourier's pass. To setting something up, Pourier had 278 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: to go into sort of if I'm gonna have any 279 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 2: offense earlier on too, I'm gonna have to bite down 280 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: and just wing. 281 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: And that's what's the craziness against Habibe. Because also Habib 282 00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:37,920 Speaker 1: people WI won't admit this. He'll oblige you a little 283 00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: bit with the crazy. 284 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:40,520 Speaker 2: But the point of what I'm saying here is Ferguson, 285 00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:43,560 Speaker 2: Jam Ferguson has the ability with the angles and the 286 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: awkwardness and just the unorthodox ways where he's gonna give 287 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,439 Speaker 2: He's gonna Givehibbe pause. Well, he's not gonna be able 288 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,720 Speaker 2: to enter the traditional pass that he wanted to go 289 00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 2: for the takedown. 290 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: I suspect. I suspect that early on, Habib will take 291 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: him down no problem. Even though Tony has great wrestling, 292 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,960 Speaker 1: it's that what happens when Tony starts to bust him up. 293 00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: Underneath what happens when Tony sent it up an and 294 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: a kind of choke, and you saw the same kind 295 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,679 Speaker 1: of escape that he had to hit against us, and 296 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: we'll have to hit against him and makes him rethink 297 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: this again. It's separating contact again, any kind of contact 298 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: with Habib is a liability for his opponent. If you 299 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 1: can invert that relationship, and I think Tony has a 300 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: chance of doing it, a chance it gets more interesting. 301 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: Here's the question for you. Habib after the fight said 302 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:27,120 Speaker 1: he thinks he should be ranked pound for pound number one. 303 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: Should I got two words for you. 304 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:34,959 Speaker 2: Let me hear where's my Isocam Crownham. Those are my 305 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 2: two wow'volved who we thought he was in the end 306 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:41,320 Speaker 2: and it's full on dominance. And there was a thing 307 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:43,439 Speaker 2: that started to happen when Habib came back from the 308 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,560 Speaker 2: knee injury started putting wins together where some people started 309 00:12:46,559 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 2: giving those whispers Luke that we could be watching a 310 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 2: greatest of all time here, not the greatest, but a greatest, 311 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:54,240 Speaker 2: a guy that could sit at that table of four 312 00:12:54,320 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: or five right. Not saying he's there yet, but I'm 313 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: saying is he needed those marquee wins to really have 314 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 2: fuel in that conversation when you are packaging together what 315 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 2: he has now the dominance of the Barbosa when the 316 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 2: dominance of the McGregor when you mix in the Ayaquinto's 317 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 2: and the RDAs. And now you do this to Dustin 318 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 2: Poier when he's this red hot when he enters on 319 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: a four fight win streak in which Poorier was trying 320 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,320 Speaker 2: to convince reporters that if he had beaten Habib, he 321 00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 2: would be the greatest lightweight in UFC history. And at 322 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:21,360 Speaker 2: first you go, come on, does everybody have to be 323 00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,160 Speaker 2: the ghost? And then number two, you look at that 324 00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:25,080 Speaker 2: streak and you go, the guy may have a point. 325 00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:27,320 Speaker 2: So now that Habib is doing this and it's so 326 00:13:27,679 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 2: damn dominant, how is he not poumpfer pound number one 327 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,680 Speaker 2: I had. I was holding firm on John Jones since 328 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: the comeback. But here's the difference. Lightweight is historically deep 329 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: and dangerous right now. It's deeper than prime light heavyweight 330 00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,800 Speaker 2: was ten years ago when you had all those celebrity 331 00:13:41,880 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 2: names and that title was bouncing back and forth from 332 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: Forest Griffin to Sugar Rashad to Rampage and all that. 333 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 2: It's deeper, and John Jones is operating right now kind 334 00:13:50,400 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 2: of a shallow pool at light heavyweight, and his fights 335 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: are closer, and maybe he's shifting in his early thirties 336 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 2: to be a more efficient style will not take as 337 00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 2: many chances, but that shift is real, and what Habib 338 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 2: is doing right now is full on greatness. I'm not 339 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: ready to crown him beyond pomp for pound king at 340 00:14:04,559 --> 00:14:06,840 Speaker 2: the moment, but he is showing you a sperrit and 341 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 2: a flare at twenty eight and zero that they are 342 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: preparing a chair for him at that table as that 343 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 2: very elite table of the greatest that ever have done 344 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,760 Speaker 2: this game. Yes, he's got a little bit more to do. 345 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 2: This is not hyperbole. This is not all everybody's got 346 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 2: to be. This is the greatest podcast through five minutes 347 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 2: a minute. I don't know, but the whole point is like, 348 00:14:24,160 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 2: this is what we're seeing is yes and yes, Okay. 349 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: Here's what I would say. The reason why the Tony 350 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: Ferguson fight is so important is because one that would 351 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 1: be his at least perceived top rival. To this point. 352 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: You could have said MacGregor before, but now that that's over, 353 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: Tony still hanging out there waiting in the wings. And moreover, 354 00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:39,320 Speaker 1: you've got that win streak dating back to twenty twelve 355 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 1: for Tony. You've got it dating back to literally his 356 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: pro debut for Habib. There's never been a fight with 357 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: two lightweights as accomplished as this in the history of MMA. Literally, 358 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,560 Speaker 1: it's never happened. There's no historical antecedent to Tony Ferguson 359 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: versus Abe. Never got made up. It stands apart from everything. 360 00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: So you beat that guy, you begin to get into 361 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: territory where if he's not pound for pound, now he'll 362 00:14:59,080 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: be pound for pound. 363 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:01,400 Speaker 2: Then how was he not that? 364 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 1: I don't The thing is, I was really thinking about this. 365 00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 1: Here's the one difference. John Jones came into the game 366 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:09,680 Speaker 1: when you had noted it before. There was a celebrity division, 367 00:15:09,720 --> 00:15:11,920 Speaker 1: and you're you're absolutely right. For a time two o 368 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 1: five was the division in MMA and in Pride, in 369 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: UFC and they, and then when it all emerged and 370 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 1: John came in and just retired everybody, he had the 371 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,160 Speaker 1: opportunity to build off that celebrity names. Now he beat 372 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: all those guys Farren square. My point being is letwit 373 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:28,320 Speaker 1: still little bit newer. Remember they got rid of it 374 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: after Thompson knocked out Eve Edwards, and they brought it 375 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: back and he did get the McGregor thing which is big. 376 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: The point is Habib didn't come in with the same 377 00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 1: kind of circumstance, so it's not. 378 00:15:36,760 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 2: Apple about what's going on, right. I understand though, if 379 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:42,240 Speaker 2: here's like John Jones can be the goat without being 380 00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:44,200 Speaker 2: the pump for pound king at the moment. 381 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: I understand. What I would say is, if you wanted 382 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 1: to argue who b was number one, I really wouldn't. 383 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:49,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't I would not go to the mat against it. 384 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:52,360 Speaker 1: You know, I'm still partial to Jones being number one, 385 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:53,800 Speaker 1: But the one thing I can say is I don't 386 00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:56,320 Speaker 1: think I've ever seen an MMA grappler like Habib number 387 00:15:56,320 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 1: come made off. I'm not telling you has the best 388 00:15:57,640 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: submissions or even outright the best wrestling. What I can 389 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: say is there is nobody, nobody in the history of 390 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:07,400 Speaker 1: the sport, in any weight class ever, that combines takedowns 391 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: with passing, threat with control with grounded pound and submissions 392 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: as effortlessly, comprehensively and fluidly. 393 00:16:14,800 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 2: And then you have these dangibles of the crazy mentality 394 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 2: of the work ethic and all those things, of the 395 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 2: ability to come back, by the way, after the two 396 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: years for the knee injury, after getting screwed around and 397 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 2: for to finally get a title opportunity after missing time 398 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 2: when he got sick ahead of the Ferguson fight. Always 399 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 2: sort of with Ramadan, can't get on a consistent fight basis, 400 00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 2: this fight coming in on an eleven month lyoff. None 401 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 2: of that ever matters to him because he's so mentally 402 00:16:35,880 --> 00:16:38,000 Speaker 2: tough it's insane. I don't like to put you over 403 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,640 Speaker 2: that often. I'm not a big morning combat dissected fan. 404 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 2: Probably a good show, not enough Campbell on it for me. 405 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 2: This week, I gotta find out what makes her be 406 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 2: so good. Because you speak a little bit more of 407 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 2: this nerdsass than I do. I'm gonna pour it all 408 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 2: over myself. 409 00:16:49,640 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: So here's the last question about this, and we'll move 410 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 1: on to the BMF tititle, which I can't wait. It's 411 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 1: about Connor McGregor. You know, I'm dead serious when he 412 00:16:56,480 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: said this. He tweets after the fight, give me my 413 00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,840 Speaker 1: rematch in Moscow, and I'll like, why does he want 414 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,760 Speaker 1: to fight Dustin Parier in Moscow? That doesn't make any sense? 415 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: Oh wait, he means he should fight Habib And. 416 00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's not move on too quick here. 417 00:17:08,600 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: Let's talk business I don't you ready, I don't where 418 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: does Connor fit in the light way picture. I heard 419 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: what Daniel White had to say, which is they're gonna 420 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,280 Speaker 1: try and make the Tony Ferguson fight, and there for 421 00:17:18,280 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 1: whatever reason that doesn't fight. 422 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 2: Cynical Luke when he heard that, guy was like, Oh, 423 00:17:21,440 --> 00:17:23,680 Speaker 2: we're gonna try to We're gonna try to low ball 424 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 2: Tony Ferguson. And when he doesn't accept it, Connor get 425 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 2: up in the ball. 426 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,399 Speaker 1: He's like, yeah, Connor, you know it makes a lot 427 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 1: of sense. No, actually doesn't. It makes no sense whatsoever. 428 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:35,040 Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense. The guy lost comprehensively, cleanly, fully, 429 00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 1: there's no denying it. You could say, oh, he only 430 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: threw one punch in the first round. You know how 431 00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 1: many punches he landed Habib did in the third run 432 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: against Partier one. You're gonna tell me that's not part 433 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: of overall dominant strategy. It's a dumb argument. You can't 434 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 1: take it seriously. And I don't I understand he wants 435 00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:50,840 Speaker 1: another crack at it. I'm sure Dustin wants another crack 436 00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: at it. I'm sure Healey and dosan Jos and Johnson, 437 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,680 Speaker 1: they all want another cracks aedit, but you don't rate 438 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:57,280 Speaker 1: not right now. So he has to get back in 439 00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 1: there as far as I'm concerned and get another win. Now, 440 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,199 Speaker 1: the question is, well against two and I don't know, 441 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 1: I don't know the winner of Gaytchee Seroni. Maybe that's 442 00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 1: something you can do. Here's the point being, here's the 443 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: one I get. I get what the UFC might try 444 00:18:08,840 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: to do. They're gonna try to make this fight with 445 00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 1: Tony whatever that's supposed to mean, low ball not low ball, 446 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:15,919 Speaker 1: and if that falls through, oh, they only have a 447 00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 1: rematch between two now the bigger stars, if not the 448 00:18:18,119 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: two biggest stars in the lightweight division, one of the 449 00:18:20,080 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 1: biggest stars in the sport. They're gonna make money either way, 450 00:18:22,680 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 1: so to them, I think the chances of Connor getting 451 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 1: a rematch are kind of high. 452 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 2: But fortunately they are kind of high. 453 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,960 Speaker 1: But the point is doesn't deserve it, period, No. 454 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,520 Speaker 2: It does not deserve it. This is a lottery ticket 455 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 2: that they need to put in the jar and preserve 456 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 2: it right now, because if you run Connor BB two 457 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 2: back out, you're doing it for the money, You're doing 458 00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:40,399 Speaker 2: it for the business, and you're gonna get Caddy shack too. 459 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,880 Speaker 2: You're gonna get a seql that bombs because I don't 460 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 2: think you have the same level of fuel and hatred, 461 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 2: and that's essentially what you'd be selling. You're not selling 462 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 2: the hope of a competitive fight, Luke, You're selling let's 463 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 2: do part do two, part deh of essentially this hatred. 464 00:18:55,960 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 2: Here's the thing though, how people doesn't want to be 465 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 2: that guy anymore. Whether you thought he went over bor 466 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: or not. On Saturday in Abu Dhabi, he put over 467 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:04,959 Speaker 2: a baby face turn like we have never seen in 468 00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 2: a while, puts on dustin shirt, respect. 469 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 1: Cog in the audience. 470 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,000 Speaker 2: I'm like, I get it, but you know talks about 471 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 2: I want to fight GSPNX and I want to do 472 00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:17,640 Speaker 2: in Africa and give away the money. My point is this, 473 00:19:17,880 --> 00:19:20,480 Speaker 2: if you book the second Habib Connor fight, you are 474 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 2: telling Abiba as a promotion. For this fight to really work, 475 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 2: we can need you to be foreign villain again. When 476 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,040 Speaker 2: habibis had the opportunity on Saturday to kind of become 477 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:30,879 Speaker 2: global superstar and by the way numbers internally, CBS Sports 478 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 2: our coverage of him through the roof for an afternoon fight, 479 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 2: Habib got the Connor rub and he's making it happen worldwide. 480 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:40,640 Speaker 2: So if you're staying on UFC and even Disney, who's 481 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 2: probably at that table when you're talking about the larger picture, 482 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,680 Speaker 2: keep Connor in that jar and puff him back up. 483 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:50,520 Speaker 2: Give him Frankie Edgar in a marketable fight in which 484 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:54,400 Speaker 2: he can't and which he can and probably should win. 485 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,840 Speaker 1: And Justin Gatchee going after Connor on Twitter in a 486 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:01,160 Speaker 1: very ugly way. It's fine Justin to play the ugly 487 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:03,240 Speaker 1: game with him. Connor plays an ugly game we all know. 488 00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 2: Okay, So people that fight either I don't hate that 489 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 2: fight out. 490 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: Here's my point. You got to give someone who wants 491 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,240 Speaker 1: to get in the mud with him. Well, Justin Gage's 492 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 1: that guy you had Habib at the press. Common say, 493 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: this is a respect sport. You respect the jim, you 494 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 1: clean it, you respect your training partners, you respect your coach. 495 00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: Whether you want to believe that or not, he does. 496 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 1: He doesn't want to go back to that anymore. And 497 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,359 Speaker 1: it was ugly. Give him somebody else. 498 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,480 Speaker 2: Oh, by the way, Tony freaking Ferguson, if UFC runs 499 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:29,120 Speaker 2: back Connor in this rematch, you're cashing him out when 500 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 2: you have a chance to revive him. You have a 501 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,000 Speaker 2: chance to build him back up. Here's the odd the 502 00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:35,800 Speaker 2: truth there. Unless Habib retires after his next fight, him 503 00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 2: and Connor will fight again in some form because there's 504 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:39,960 Speaker 2: too much money. It is a lottery ticket sitting in 505 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:42,359 Speaker 2: a jar, just like the third d as Connor matches. 506 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 2: You gotta repair that and build it back up. It's 507 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,800 Speaker 2: not rocket science. So in the meantime, bad luck has 508 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:50,720 Speaker 2: become good because if Habib Tony had already happened, and 509 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,720 Speaker 2: I know you could argue maybe it happened two or 510 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 2: three times already, maybe this is the fourth time they're fighting, 511 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:57,159 Speaker 2: we'd be this excited. No, we never seen what this 512 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 2: looked like. There's been four cases of bad luck. But 513 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,360 Speaker 2: those bad luck have built together a fight that now 514 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 2: matters more than anything. It's now the most hardcore of 515 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: hardcore fans fight, and it's for the world title, and 516 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 2: Habib's still on beaten and Tony's got a twelve fight 517 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 2: win streak. Don't screw that up. Go back to it, 518 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 2: Go back to it all the way, go back to 519 00:21:15,359 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 2: it hard and firm. And if you're UFC, why not 520 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:21,360 Speaker 2: roll the dice on what Habib's brand actually is right now. 521 00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:23,560 Speaker 2: If he's going this far with respect and I'll donate 522 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 2: the things, then give him the damn GSP fight. Let 523 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 2: him become an absolute headlining, lovable superstar. Yeah, do don't 524 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:32,880 Speaker 2: drop that really out. 525 00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,440 Speaker 1: Then, So then let's say GSP wins. Then he's already 526 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: said explicitly til Robin Black this week or last week. Yeah, 527 00:21:38,359 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 1: if they do that, I win. I'm gonna walk away 528 00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:41,640 Speaker 1: because that'd be smart. Smart. 529 00:21:41,920 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what. He wouldn't walk away, he'd fight. 530 00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 1: Make it non title. I'm with you. Make it for 531 00:21:45,119 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 1: a title, forget it all right. We got to move 532 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 1: along because. 533 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:48,440 Speaker 2: You know, if they did that, then you'd get Connor 534 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,360 Speaker 2: an Tony, which one to beat either a. 535 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,359 Speaker 1: Lot of good options, but the best option is as 536 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,960 Speaker 1: you know, Habi versus Tony. All right, here's another great 537 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 1: option that has turned into a reality. Brian Campbell at 538 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:02,280 Speaker 1: MSG on November two, is gonna be the b MF 539 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: title on the line, The Bad Mother, Can I say it? 540 00:22:05,040 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 1: One time? Fucker title is gonna be on the line. 541 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:11,120 Speaker 1: Nate Diaz is gonna face Jorge Maswittal. I'm assuming at 542 00:22:11,119 --> 00:22:12,920 Speaker 1: one seventy they haven't clarified that as far as I 543 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 1: know have that it is okay. So it's gonna be 544 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: one seventy. It canna be a Walterway title fight. I'll 545 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 1: pitch to you here, Brian. Why is this so great? 546 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,879 Speaker 2: For every possible reason? But the core, outside of the 547 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 2: glitz and glamour of what it makes it so great 548 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 2: to action fighters, Uh, the most gangster fight ever booked. 549 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 2: The core of what makes it great is because it's 550 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 2: a dramatic shift in disposition and theory from where UFC 551 00:22:34,560 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 2: was recently. UFC had gone corporate. They'd gone to a 552 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 2: degree anti fan when it comes to the match making, 553 00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,679 Speaker 2: more about let's make the biggest business match. If you 554 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 2: gave the keys to any jomoke fan sitting on a 555 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:49,160 Speaker 2: couch somewhere and we're like, go ahead, MSG, is yours? 556 00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:50,119 Speaker 2: What match are your booking? 557 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 1: Yeah? 558 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 2: They're gonna go, Oh, I want that crazy guy with 559 00:22:52,600 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: a three piece and I want Captain Gangster and ATZ 560 00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:57,080 Speaker 2: and I'm gonna put them together and I'm gonna bring 561 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:58,600 Speaker 2: a bong and it's gonna be an MSG and it's 562 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 2: gonna headline and a five on main event. Where do 563 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 2: I sign up? This is such a give back to 564 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 2: the fans. This goes against the recent philosophy of we 565 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:08,840 Speaker 2: can't have a main event in which we float out 566 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,240 Speaker 2: a belt that doesn't matter. Now I get that they're 567 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 2: kind of floating out a belt that doesn't matter, but 568 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,719 Speaker 2: but the way that they're doing it is so fan friendly. 569 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,359 Speaker 2: And I know there's a whole BMF spin off that 570 00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 2: I want to have this talk with you, but just 571 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,120 Speaker 2: at its core of what this fight is a main 572 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 2: event and for anyone saying, oh, this fight doesn't have 573 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:27,119 Speaker 2: a storyline though there's no hatred, I don't need hatred 574 00:23:27,200 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 2: in storyline. That is for pro wrestling. I get down 575 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 2: for pro wrestling, all right. I give a shout out 576 00:23:31,200 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 2: to my brothers on welfare down there, right. PC cares 577 00:23:33,840 --> 00:23:35,560 Speaker 2: if no one else cares, even though we can't talk 578 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:37,399 Speaker 2: about it on this show. But my point on that 579 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 2: is this is a super Bowl of being a fan. 580 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,879 Speaker 2: This is everything we would want. Thank you, Dana. 581 00:23:43,920 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: I mean, here's what's amazing about it. What is the 582 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,360 Speaker 1: UFC's brand in terms of an MMA promoter. Well, yes, 583 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 1: they're the best, okay, But more than that, their corporate 584 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: efficiency meets law and order. That's what they like They 585 00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: like the conveyor belt of content constantly churning. They like 586 00:23:57,560 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: the fighters to say yes, whether it's you're gonna take 587 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,200 Speaker 1: this fight in that place for that amount of a mount 588 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,720 Speaker 1: of money, just everyone say yes, let's keep this rolling. 589 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:07,600 Speaker 1: Everyone gets in line, everyone says, okay, no problem, you 590 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 1: got well. I would say, Jorge is pretty good about 591 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: doing that kind of thing. But you got you know, 592 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: he can float that brand that he's not. He's the outsider, 593 00:24:13,800 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: you know, the guy who, like Kimbo Slacks, was fighting 594 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 1: in the streets, and then you got an ads who 595 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,240 Speaker 1: is the again, the anti law and order candidate, the 596 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 1: anti hero, as the New York Times called him. Putting 597 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: those two together is everything that the UFC typically is 598 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,480 Speaker 1: not and used to do and he used to do, 599 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 1: but they have completely gotten away from. But the fan demand, like, 600 00:24:34,600 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: what is the promoter's responsibility to make the fights that 601 00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 1: people want to pay money to see? Well, I got 602 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,280 Speaker 1: good news for you. You can do that. And you can 603 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:46,480 Speaker 1: also it's not like you're putting on Logan Paul versus KSI. 604 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 1: You're putting on two world class athletes, two world class 605 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:50,840 Speaker 1: fighters who, by the way, in the case of Jorge 606 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: Massoud all ranked near the top of that division. It 607 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,240 Speaker 1: can get sticky and complicated if you lean on this 608 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,040 Speaker 1: as your business practice before a one off, and they're 609 00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: gonna make it to court of out for it. This 610 00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: is the UFC for once, for once getting out of 611 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: their own way, yes, and listening to what the fans 612 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:11,199 Speaker 1: demand and realizing you can have a little fun and 613 00:25:11,240 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't damage you. 614 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 2: When you heard the news, Luke, when you heard the 615 00:25:13,920 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 2: news is the equivalent of finding out mom and dad 616 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,199 Speaker 2: get high and they watch faces of Death two. I mean, like, 617 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,399 Speaker 2: is it really like it's like, oh, we can party now, 618 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:21,240 Speaker 2: Like what's going on here? 619 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 1: I thought for sure because during the week you had 620 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,280 Speaker 1: that interview with Bretto Komoto and Dana White and he 621 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,520 Speaker 1: was like, I don't even know where Nate Diaz fits 622 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,040 Speaker 1: in the big picture. We've got be three more years. 623 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: When you hear from h I'm like, uh not if you 624 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,360 Speaker 1: give him the masket ball. 625 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 2: Fight, this ain't UFC Saskatoon. They're giving him the keys 626 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:39,119 Speaker 2: of the world's most famous arena at MSG where they 627 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 2: fought four years to get in that building, and once 628 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,119 Speaker 2: they did, they set records. Every time they have a 629 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 2: show there they're giving Nate Diaz the ball and they 630 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 2: are transitioning to the BMF, creating essentially this badass gangster 631 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: world Wrestling title that I actually hope they go the 632 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:57,760 Speaker 2: distance and actually create a belt to put on, just like, is. 633 00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: This MMA's turnover chain, you know, the turnover chain. 634 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:01,600 Speaker 2: I don't know this. 635 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 1: Jesus Christ. You watch for wrestling. You don't know anything 636 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,680 Speaker 1: about college football. 637 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 2: Uh No, I don't know what a turnover chain is. 638 00:26:07,240 --> 00:26:10,160 Speaker 1: Oh my god, you know what? Literally you sick in me, like, 639 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: like legitimately sick in me. I don't know what turnover 640 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,399 Speaker 1: chain is. If you can score a turnover, you go 641 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,160 Speaker 1: back to the sidelines, right, let's see you pick six 642 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:19,600 Speaker 1: or whatever. These divisional programs will give you this giant, gaudy, 643 00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 1: ghost face killer kind of chain you get to wear, 644 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,000 Speaker 1: and then you get on Sports Center and everyone says 645 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: you're a legend. You put on Instagram and then you 646 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,359 Speaker 1: haven't seen this chain. Everyone here knows. 647 00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 2: In a small bubble. But this BMF title, it kind 648 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,840 Speaker 2: of feels like the UFC Super Fight Belt, which I 649 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 2: used to love the crap out of it was okay. 650 00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 1: Back in the day. 651 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:43,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, we do tournaments but you know what, let's make 652 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,120 Speaker 2: really fun fights that people want to see. So let's 653 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 2: rematch Shamrock and Gracie and put this super fight belt up. 654 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:52,120 Speaker 2: So here's my hope for the BMF thing. I hope 655 00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,680 Speaker 2: it's a tongue in cheek joke, but to get serious 656 00:26:54,720 --> 00:26:56,840 Speaker 2: for a second, I hope it is a title luke 657 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 2: where it can be open weight and it can be 658 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,920 Speaker 2: as long as you get two crazy mfors in there, 659 00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 2: and the guy who has it at the moment is 660 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:08,199 Speaker 2: willing to fight another crazy mf for close enough in 661 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 2: his weight class that it's just a fan super bowl 662 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,760 Speaker 2: every single time. Data And it's no different than when 663 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,440 Speaker 2: we used to say, Hey, who cares what weight class 664 00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 2: Connor is, and let's create a Connor pay per view bell. 665 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 2: He's a paper view champ and let's just match him 666 00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: up with the biggest star. It's kind of like that, 667 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:24,880 Speaker 2: but you're gonna end up having your one sixty five 668 00:27:24,920 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 2: division without actually having it, because it turns out that 669 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 2: most of these fights are going to be between lightweight 670 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 2: and walterweight. But I love the creativity that you can 671 00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 2: have anything that makes you feel the old early UFC 672 00:27:34,359 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 2: Semophore vibes. I'm down for that. 673 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:38,840 Speaker 1: Two fights in the row. Diaz has booked his own fight. 674 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:40,880 Speaker 1: Kind of interesting to know here, very QUI quickly because 675 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: we have to move along. 676 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:43,359 Speaker 2: What's it gonna look like? We can't move along that quick, No, 677 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 2: we have to What should the BMF look like? 678 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: I don't know. I haven't told much about it all right, 679 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,679 Speaker 1: by the way, shouts to boss Logic had a mock 680 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:52,520 Speaker 1: up of his way. He's aught. They looks a lottle like. Actually, 681 00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 1: it's pretty cool. This fight, though, is going to take 682 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:59,440 Speaker 1: place the same day as Canelo versus Covidleb November second. 683 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 1: I think it's happened on the other side of the country, Vegas. 684 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: Here's what interesting it's if you want it to be 685 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,919 Speaker 1: a cynical fan Brian, you could you could frame it 686 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 1: as UFC's for volity versus boxing attempting something legitimately serious 687 00:28:13,240 --> 00:28:15,719 Speaker 1: in terms of historic greatness. That would not be a 688 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: fair framing. Do you think the boxing world's gonna try 689 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 1: to do that? What's gonna be the bigger fight? And 690 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,280 Speaker 1: is there gonna be antipathy between the worlds or is 691 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: it just two segmented populations of this it's. 692 00:28:23,880 --> 00:28:25,920 Speaker 2: Gonna end up being two segmented population. There's a cross 693 00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 2: over there because there's so much celebrity involved in Nate 694 00:28:28,119 --> 00:28:30,680 Speaker 2: Diaz and Canelo Alvarez. I hate this. I get where 695 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:32,919 Speaker 2: we're at with so many people having TV deals and 696 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 2: big fights in both sports, there's naturally you're gonna see 697 00:28:35,040 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 2: cross promote promoting against each other. We see that a lot. 698 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,600 Speaker 2: Big UFC card going up against a pretty good boxing match, 699 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 2: but this is arguably the biggest boxing pay per view 700 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: of the year from the idea of like potential buys, 701 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 2: although it would be on his own so there's no 702 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 2: paper view bys. You get my point, though, Canello's name 703 00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:51,880 Speaker 2: is that big, and I don't care if you thinkolee 704 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 2: lev is washed at thirty six, and yes he's a 705 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,880 Speaker 2: bit washy, but Canelo would be moving up two weight divisions. 706 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,720 Speaker 2: Look like this is like stop traffic. There to be 707 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,280 Speaker 2: great ish that. I need to see what happens next. 708 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:08,000 Speaker 1: But in short order it's the Canel to take it. 709 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 2: But the whole idea that I hate when the very 710 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: top of the sports compete against each other. I hate that. 711 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 2: You know, UFC going to MSG is always your second 712 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,160 Speaker 2: biggest pay per view card of the year in importance, 713 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 2: and now it's essentially going up against the one or 714 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 2: two biggest boxing card of the year. That sucks. That 715 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,960 Speaker 2: makes us choose as fans, It makes us choose a journalists, 716 00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:26,640 Speaker 2: which one we're going to cover in the end, your 717 00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 2: question of which one is actually bigger though barely the 718 00:29:31,600 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 2: Canelo thing, Because here's the thing. Canelo, as a singular. 719 00:29:34,960 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 1: Entity move he is the biggest of the four. So 720 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 1: between Diaz, Masvidalklev and Canelo is by four of the biggest. 721 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 2: And this is a rare sequence where somebody is taking 722 00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:47,800 Speaker 2: a giant gamble for no other reason than greatness. They 723 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 2: want to add another division. I mean, look, dude, Canello's 724 00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 2: got balls. Can can you comment publicly on this? Can you? 725 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:55,360 Speaker 2: Can you speak of the man Satchel like this is 726 00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 2: insane what he's doing right here. I know the guy's 727 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 2: a little bit older than Washy. He's moving up two 728 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,959 Speaker 2: way class, He's moving up fifteen pounds to take this 729 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:07,600 Speaker 2: guy out washed Oh, this is this is fantastic in 730 00:30:07,800 --> 00:30:09,959 Speaker 2: having to put that up against this gangster super Bowl man. 731 00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:13,320 Speaker 1: It's very quickly to speak. Honest, dude, I'm telling you, 732 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 1: we got to move along. It's just how it goes. 733 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 1: Speaking of boxing, Tyson Fury is going to be back 734 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:19,000 Speaker 1: this week with what do you want to call it? 735 00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 1: Another tune up fight? Sis second in a row. Here's interesting. 736 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:25,040 Speaker 1: I actually had him in studio at Sirius XM and 737 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,280 Speaker 1: I asked him, how do you pronounce the last name 738 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: of your opponent? He actually didn't know. He goes, I 739 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 1: have no idea, asked the promoter. I'm just here to 740 00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: wash this bum and collect a check and then we'll 741 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:38,840 Speaker 1: see what happens with Wilder in twenty twenty. So I'm 742 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: sitting here thinking to myself, it's like, well, Tyson, you're 743 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: an interesting person. I do like watching you compete, and 744 00:30:45,000 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: maybe maybe this is a situation like Ruiz and Joshua. 745 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,240 Speaker 1: We're all discounting one gentleman and outo. 746 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 2: We hope it wouldn't because this could ruin all the 747 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 2: big business. 748 00:30:54,240 --> 00:30:55,560 Speaker 1: Well I'm not saying I would wish for it, but 749 00:30:55,600 --> 00:30:57,880 Speaker 1: maybe this could happen and we're all just discounting it. 750 00:30:58,040 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 1: But I'm like, tell me, why, tell me why I'm 751 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: supposed to care? And I get it's gonna be an 752 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: ESPN plus again, right, tell me why I'm supposed to 753 00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 1: care if Tyson you don't even know how to pronounce 754 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 1: the last name of your opponent. And I get what 755 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 1: his explanation was if you look around the division. He 756 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,640 Speaker 1: didn't say it was the best available choice, but he 757 00:31:14,680 --> 00:31:16,360 Speaker 1: did make a credible case that there were a lot 758 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: of people who are already booked for other fights or blah. 759 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: And again you can argue with that a little bit. 760 00:31:20,800 --> 00:31:22,440 Speaker 2: There is some marriage too argued against that. 761 00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,120 Speaker 1: Oh, so there's some merit to it. But the point 762 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,520 Speaker 1: being is if asking do we care, I'll be honest 763 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 1: with you. I care enough to see after the fact 764 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,520 Speaker 1: how quickly Tyson Fury gets it done. This is the 765 00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,840 Speaker 1: very opposite of appointment viewing. They're just making us wait 766 00:31:35,920 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 1: for the fights we really care about. December seventh, will, 767 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: I guess'll be the first one when Ruiz fight's Joshua again. 768 00:31:41,000 --> 00:31:43,440 Speaker 1: If you want to watch Tyson Fury knock yourself out, 769 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: I'm gonna wait and see what happens on Sports. 770 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just for the shits and giggles of the 771 00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 2: show and to see what happens. But ultimately this is odd. 772 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 2: It's heavyweight boxing, which means we finally have stars. We 773 00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 2: finally have viable contenders. We just had Wilder Fury in 774 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 2: December soul of good pay per view numbers. Was insane 775 00:31:59,360 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 2: to watch, and now we're kind of stretching out and 776 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:03,120 Speaker 2: slow moving it. 777 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 1: Here. 778 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:06,600 Speaker 2: From ESPN's perspective, you signed Tyson Fury. I get why 779 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: they want to put him in two fights first to 780 00:32:08,640 --> 00:32:10,440 Speaker 2: sort of set him up as a potential pay per 781 00:32:10,520 --> 00:32:14,040 Speaker 2: view brand when you do the scheduled Wilder rematch next February. 782 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,000 Speaker 2: But they're putting him twice on ESPN plus. I get 783 00:32:17,040 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 2: it builds their their subscriptions potentially, but wouldn't you put 784 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,080 Speaker 2: him on regular ESPN if you're potentially building him into. 785 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: The paper the Heisman Trophy scenarios and that always did 786 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 1: well for. 787 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 2: The number two. Here's the deal. Tyson Fury had two 788 00:32:29,360 --> 00:32:32,200 Speaker 2: gimme fights last year when he finally came back. Then 789 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 2: he went against Wilder and you know what, he beat him. 790 00:32:34,320 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 2: He didn't get to win, but he beat him. The 791 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:37,959 Speaker 2: fact that we have to go back and see him 792 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:40,280 Speaker 2: fight the Schwaws a couple of months ago, you know, 793 00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:42,000 Speaker 2: maybe the Swartz to be with you on that one, 794 00:32:42,080 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 2: and now against Otto Valen, who maybe someone he's six 795 00:32:45,280 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 2: y six south. Paul's got a you know, Olympic amateur background, 796 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 2: but like doesn't scream that it's going to be a 797 00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:53,120 Speaker 2: competitive matchup. And you know what, I almost don't want 798 00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 2: it to be a competitive matchup because we want the 799 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 2: big fights to come. I just hope that the power, 800 00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:00,719 Speaker 2: the powers that be here at heavyweight don't screw this 801 00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 2: whole thing up. And the problem is that there's too 802 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,280 Speaker 2: many powers that be. There's too many networks and promotions 803 00:33:05,320 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 2: all sort of going, hey, heavy weight back, this works again, 804 00:33:08,040 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 2: let's all try to play together. I want to get 805 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 2: to Wilder Fury too, but we got to get through 806 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,320 Speaker 2: this fight. We got to get through in November. When 807 00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 2: Deontay Wilder has a very tough matchup against Louis Ortiz 808 00:33:18,680 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 2: the second time around, Lew. 809 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 1: Why it's very tough the second time around? I subsequently 810 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: I have not Okay, So the first Ortiz fight was competitive, Yes, 811 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 1: what has happened since that fight to let you believe 812 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: the second one would also be competitive? 813 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 2: Because Deontay Wilder is still the same guy he was 814 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:35,920 Speaker 2: in the first fight, So what does that mean? He's 815 00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 2: got historically great power, he's incredibly exciting. Not a great boxer, 816 00:33:39,920 --> 00:33:43,280 Speaker 2: not a great technical fighter, allows other fighters to have success. 817 00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 2: And what we saw in that first fight was Ortiz, 818 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 2: who does have the Cuban background and is also big 819 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,560 Speaker 2: and tough, also old, but also big and tough and 820 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 2: has power. Had Wilder on the verge of being knocked 821 00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 2: down and out midway through that fight, had him hurt, 822 00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 2: was knocking him from pillar to post, and we saw 823 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:00,640 Speaker 2: Wilder dig deep, and we saw him pull that fight 824 00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:03,480 Speaker 2: out or tease fatigue late, which happens in a lot 825 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 2: of Wilder fights, and Wilder put him away second time around. 826 00:34:08,040 --> 00:34:10,280 Speaker 2: It's a sexy matchup where the same thing can happen 827 00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:12,799 Speaker 2: over again, essentially, or she's getting a second chance at 828 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 2: this because he fought so well. I love that fight. 829 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:16,680 Speaker 2: I want to see that fight. I want to be 830 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 2: front road for that fight. I also want to get 831 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 2: to fury Wilder in one piece though at the same time, 832 00:34:22,440 --> 00:34:24,960 Speaker 2: and that fight was so good in December, we wait 833 00:34:25,040 --> 00:34:27,319 Speaker 2: in another year to do that a second time. 834 00:34:27,719 --> 00:34:31,040 Speaker 1: I just the signal to noise ratio in boxing, where 835 00:34:31,120 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: how much nonsense you have to put up with to 836 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,920 Speaker 1: get the sweet stuff is extraordinary. It's one thing I'll 837 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,440 Speaker 1: give benefit to in mixed martial arts, there's a signal 838 00:34:39,520 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 1: to noise ratio in that I did see ufc Uruguay. 839 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:43,319 Speaker 1: I can tell you there's a whole lot of it. 840 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:45,719 Speaker 1: But on the other side of things, there's just a 841 00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 1: it's just a little bit more bang for your buck 842 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 1: in terms of consistent matchups between ranked guys, And of 843 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,000 Speaker 1: course that's from a function of a bad business model 844 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 1: for the fighters. I'm just saying, as a fan, Jesus 845 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,719 Speaker 1: christ Man, the boxing world asks so much from you. Sometimes, Oh, 846 00:34:58,760 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 1: kick you in the stick constantly. 847 00:34:59,800 --> 00:35:01,680 Speaker 2: I ha Tyson Fury on my State of Combat podcast 848 00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:04,319 Speaker 2: and CBS hey hung up on me. He was off 849 00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,440 Speaker 2: the rails. It was m Effer's left and right, no 850 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 2: real tangible questions. But when I asked him all these 851 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,839 Speaker 2: promotional business questions, why are we doing this? Why are 852 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 2: we scheduling two fights in between? I mean, he just 853 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 2: gives them go talk to f and Bob Aarram. It's 854 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 2: you know, what, do you look like? I just come 855 00:35:19,320 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 2: in here and knock them other effers out, which he 856 00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 2: doesn't actually come in there to do. But that's okay. 857 00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,440 Speaker 2: But my point is, what do you think about the 858 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,479 Speaker 2: developments of Deontay Wilder doing a public interview and saying, hey, 859 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,760 Speaker 2: maybe Tyson Fury steps aside, coming up and I fight 860 00:35:32,880 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 2: the winner of Ruiz and Joshua, so that Wilder, if 861 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 2: he beats Ortiz next, has a chance finally to be 862 00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:40,720 Speaker 2: that undisputed four belt champion. 863 00:35:41,000 --> 00:35:43,360 Speaker 1: I don't think. I don't take it very seriously, to 864 00:35:43,400 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: be honest with you. I mean, look, is there a 865 00:35:45,080 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 1: possibility that's true? I suppose, but I don't. Look, They've 866 00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: already done a deal with Fury. They have history, they 867 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 1: have historical connectivity. There was a lack of a resolution 868 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 1: over the result in certainly some controversy. They have both 869 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 1: the mechanism and the means and the reason to run 870 00:36:03,200 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: that one again. Now they have reason to make a 871 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:07,680 Speaker 1: fight with the winner Ruiz or Joshua, but they don't 872 00:36:07,719 --> 00:36:11,080 Speaker 1: have any of the same. They'd be starting from scratch 873 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 1: to a degree with just the well, this fight should 874 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:18,040 Speaker 1: happen kind of push rather than a sense of no, no, 875 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:22,160 Speaker 1: we have historical issues unresolved. We have we have history 876 00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:26,440 Speaker 1: between you and I. That's a much weightier push to 877 00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 1: getting fights made. And also, like if what if Ruiz 878 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:30,960 Speaker 1: wins again? I don't know that he will. We'll talk 879 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: about his party. 880 00:36:31,560 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 2: He wants to win, because Ruiz, if you look at 881 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 2: how people are aligned, is a PBC al Hayman fight right, 882 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 2: So it would be easier to make a. 883 00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,000 Speaker 1: Will, but it wouldn't be the fight that people want 884 00:36:39,000 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 1: to see historic. I don't want to see, Joshua. 885 00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:42,440 Speaker 2: I'll ask you that with an angle though, because as 886 00:36:42,520 --> 00:36:43,800 Speaker 2: much as I want to see Fury and Wilder, and 887 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:45,319 Speaker 2: I just complained and told you how bad I want 888 00:36:45,360 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 2: to see it today. 889 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:46,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. 890 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,919 Speaker 2: What would it mean though, to actually have a four 891 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 2: belt champion and have one champion one division, one name, 892 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 2: which is Ben Deontay Wilder's wish and goal all along, 893 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:57,399 Speaker 2: which at the core as a fan would be our wish. 894 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 2: We want it to be the old days where we 895 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 2: remember what it was like to have all the belts 896 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 2: in one house and Mike Tyson to Douglas to Holyfield 897 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 2: to on and on and on. Would you rather have 898 00:37:06,160 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 2: that and not so much worry about the drama as 899 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 2: of is this guy gonna fight this guy? When's this 900 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,839 Speaker 2: fight gonna happen? Is this fight going to screw it up? 901 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 2: Would you give it all up to get that chance 902 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 2: to have to. 903 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 1: Be honest, I don't even really think much about it. 904 00:37:15,719 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: I would rather just see the various permutations in play. 905 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 1: I would just rather see Wilder fight Fury a second time. 906 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,840 Speaker 1: I'd rather I'd like to see Fury fight Joshua, or 907 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 1: Joshua fight Wilder, or Ruiz to fight any of those. 908 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,600 Speaker 1: To me, I'm not saying that belt considerations are irrelevant. 909 00:37:28,640 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 1: They matter to it to some extent. In the historical 910 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 1: relevancy you're pointing out I take seriously. But in the end, 911 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:38,640 Speaker 1: is that the reason why you want to see these fights? Like? 912 00:37:38,680 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 1: Not really, If you're a fight fan, that's the man. 913 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: I want to see those belts unified. That's a nice 914 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 1: little like side action to it. The real hustle, the 915 00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: real mechanism of this whole thing is that you want 916 00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:51,640 Speaker 1: to see who is truly if you're a fight fan, 917 00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:53,880 Speaker 1: If you're a fight fan, who is truly the greatest? 918 00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,640 Speaker 1: What would really happen? What kind of action? We we 919 00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,920 Speaker 1: really get? So much nonsense, so much palm, so much circumstance. 920 00:37:59,040 --> 00:38:01,680 Speaker 1: Let's distill it down to that blue crystal that old 921 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,400 Speaker 1: Heisenberg used to ship out to Albuquerque. I want that 922 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,480 Speaker 1: blue crystal. You could put throw whatever wrapping on it 923 00:38:06,520 --> 00:38:07,000 Speaker 1: you put on it. 924 00:38:07,560 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, real quickly On Joshua R. Reiz, which will be 925 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:11,919 Speaker 2: December seventh, looking forward to that rematch, they do the 926 00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:15,439 Speaker 2: press tour around the world. They go to Saudi's little 927 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:16,839 Speaker 2: bubbly around the belly hair. 928 00:38:17,080 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 1: So I actually looked this up. If you guys didn't 929 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 1: know this, here's the issue with this Ruiz At a 930 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 1: birthday recently, yeah, thirtieth, thirtieth birthday, handsome celebrations beyond that, 931 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,480 Speaker 1: and there were pictures that came out video as well 932 00:38:28,520 --> 00:38:31,480 Speaker 1: of like let's see waitresses in lingerie. He had an 933 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,960 Speaker 1: ice luge with his own name and logo on it. 934 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:36,360 Speaker 1: There was a naked naked girl as a sushi. I 935 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 1: actually looked this up. Do you know how much the 936 00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:38,680 Speaker 1: naked sushi girl calls? 937 00:38:38,760 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 2: So she's her body is a plate, her. 938 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 1: Body is a plate, and she's covered strategically with sushi, 939 00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: although eventually that that strategy fails as people eat more 940 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:50,600 Speaker 1: of their you know, salmon row or whatever. Do you 941 00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:51,560 Speaker 1: know much that costs? 942 00:38:52,320 --> 00:38:52,480 Speaker 2: No? 943 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:56,920 Speaker 1: I looked this up. The most basic, the most basic 944 00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,319 Speaker 1: of those, and I don't think he got one of those. 945 00:38:58,320 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: I think he had the one of the grander ones. 946 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 1: They start at twelve grand, twelve grand. 947 00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:03,959 Speaker 2: Well, he bought a Rolls Royce, he bought a Mancha. 948 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 2: I'm not telling the guy how to live his life. 949 00:39:05,640 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 2: I want to see him come in more trim than 950 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 2: the first one. 951 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,480 Speaker 1: He was ill photos back to you. We talked about 952 00:39:10,520 --> 00:39:12,680 Speaker 1: Habib like why he's great and now, look, anybody who 953 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: doesn't want to train for any reason will find one. 954 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:18,200 Speaker 1: But because of his devout faith, he doesn't engage in 955 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:20,560 Speaker 1: any kind of hardcore party and certainly not any consumption 956 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: of alcohol that we're aware of. It kind of keeps 957 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,399 Speaker 1: him to a degree in terms of his athy abibe. Yes, yes, 958 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,400 Speaker 1: in terms of in terms of his athletic demands. It 959 00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:30,480 Speaker 1: keeps him on the straight and narrow. Joshua was going 960 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,879 Speaker 1: to be ruiz. I'm not here to question his faith, 961 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,600 Speaker 1: but rather it doesn't define his life that way. And 962 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: here he is on the biggest fight of his life. 963 00:39:38,280 --> 00:39:40,799 Speaker 1: He's already spent what seems like, and I'll put it 964 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: this way, imprudent financial investment amount of money. And he 965 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:46,720 Speaker 1: did look a little bit big heading into that press 966 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 1: conference that they had out in December. Forth to the 967 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 1: December seven fight. Are you worried he's gonna blow this 968 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:51,960 Speaker 1: whole thing? 969 00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:53,799 Speaker 2: I'm nervous. And the whole point is like he was 970 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:55,800 Speaker 2: fat the first fight, and that's what made the whole story. 971 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,120 Speaker 2: That's what made it viral. Yeah, and the thickest thing, 972 00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 2: goo chubby guy who people didn't realize that is such 973 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,319 Speaker 2: a good fighter underneath. But he's got three months to 974 00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:04,960 Speaker 2: do it. I know his trainer, Manny Roe Blace, wants 975 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,920 Speaker 2: him to come in even I think it was fifteen 976 00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:09,280 Speaker 2: to twenty pounds lighter than he was the first time around. 977 00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:12,200 Speaker 2: Not everybody's the same. I'm giving him a chance for 978 00:40:12,239 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 2: his moment. He's the heavyweight champion of the world right now, 979 00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 2: He's got three of the four major belts. He may 980 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,440 Speaker 2: not have it again after December seventh, So if he 981 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 2: wants to live it up and buy everything, that's cool. 982 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 2: But I also would have loved that guy knowing he 983 00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:26,359 Speaker 2: signed for the rematch after he won the first one, 984 00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 2: to kind of be in the gym every single day 985 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 2: and say him to himself, I'm going to come into 986 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:35,040 Speaker 2: this second fight, no excuses, the best I could ever be. 987 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:37,760 Speaker 2: You know why that Dustin Poorier interview hurts so badly 988 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:39,840 Speaker 2: watching it after the hebbi bloss Yeah, when he's crying, 989 00:40:40,120 --> 00:40:43,840 Speaker 2: breaking out because he knows there's no excuses. At age thirty, 990 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 2: he is at the mountaintop of how great he could 991 00:40:46,120 --> 00:40:48,520 Speaker 2: be in that Frime peak, that was his peak. A 992 00:40:48,560 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 2: lot of guys go to the grave saying, man, I 993 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 2: wonder if I would have tried to become pro, or 994 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:53,520 Speaker 2: if I wonder if I would have tried to become 995 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 2: a rock star, or I wonder if I would have 996 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 2: given my best when it was my moment, right mom, spaghetti, 997 00:40:58,120 --> 00:41:00,520 Speaker 2: all that good stuff. Poory eight. He got to that 998 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 2: moment and he found out he just wasn't good enough. 999 00:41:02,640 --> 00:41:05,439 Speaker 2: And it's heartbreakingly sad that he's got an all timer 1000 00:41:05,480 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 2: and have been in front of him, but he found 1001 00:41:07,040 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 2: out he's just not good enough at that very elite level. 1002 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 1: I'm glad you're treating it with such delicacy. 1003 00:41:11,719 --> 00:41:13,520 Speaker 2: But you get what I'm saying. That's the core of 1004 00:41:13,560 --> 00:41:15,239 Speaker 2: what his heartbreak was, not saying he can't have a 1005 00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 2: Bispink comeback. But I just want Ruiz to uh find 1006 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:21,840 Speaker 2: out the very greatness that's inside of him. I know 1007 00:41:21,920 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 2: he can do it in three months. 1008 00:41:22,719 --> 00:41:24,120 Speaker 1: I'll just say this last week, so we got to 1009 00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 1: move along again. They're kill him back there. 1010 00:41:25,560 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 2: But but whoever is in your ear? 1011 00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 1: I mean, you know who's in my ear? You know 1012 00:41:28,560 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 1: who's in my EARA. 1013 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:30,719 Speaker 2: I mean you know it's a blues riff and B 1014 00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:33,440 Speaker 2: Why try to keep up? 1015 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:36,319 Speaker 1: Yeah, the point being is ruiz if it's one thing 1016 00:41:36,360 --> 00:41:39,400 Speaker 1: to gradually get better and accumulate titles and money, and 1017 00:41:39,440 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 1: then everything's slowly crescendos to the top, not super slow, 1018 00:41:42,880 --> 00:41:46,040 Speaker 1: but you know it's a steady progress versus overnight you 1019 00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 1: have three titles, all this money. He simply doesn't know 1020 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,239 Speaker 1: how to navigate the space effectively. And you're seeing it now. 1021 00:41:51,360 --> 00:41:54,279 Speaker 1: He's treating it like rather than slowly building wealth through 1022 00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:56,320 Speaker 1: like real estate investments over the course of ten fifteen 1023 00:41:56,360 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 1: years he won the lottery, he's treating it like he 1024 00:41:58,640 --> 00:42:01,320 Speaker 1: won the lottery. And he's spending money like he didn't 1025 00:42:01,360 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: know what to do with money now that it's all 1026 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:04,839 Speaker 1: all of a sudden in front of him. All right, 1027 00:42:05,160 --> 00:42:07,160 Speaker 1: Bellatore was over the weekend Belltour two twenty six. I'm 1028 00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:08,960 Speaker 1: not even gonna talk about that main event. What a 1029 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 1: disaster I can't believe how bad that was. 1030 00:42:10,800 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 2: Nobody even got kicked in this time, and it was great. 1031 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,279 Speaker 1: I just I can't even dignify what happened there. And 1032 00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:17,920 Speaker 1: I think Ryan bat is right. I cannot see the 1033 00:42:17,920 --> 00:42:19,919 Speaker 1: ipoke there at all. I don't know what they're talking about, 1034 00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:23,200 Speaker 1: but okay, here's the good news. That featherweight tournament that 1035 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: they're putting on. I absolutely love the first round of it, 1036 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,399 Speaker 1: so to speak, was what happened on Saturday. The next 1037 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 1: one will be the twenty eighth of this month. Right, 1038 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 1: so they had the first four matchups. To me, I'll 1039 00:42:34,800 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 1: tell you who my stand up was. I would love 1040 00:42:36,080 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 1: to know who yours is. I'm gonna go with Adam 1041 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,239 Speaker 1: Borisch defeating Pack Cards. I gotta tell you, man, this 1042 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 1: guy went out there and beat through adversity a little bit. 1043 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:47,440 Speaker 1: Aaron Pico, he's undefeated. He comes from Hungary. Tell me 1044 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:50,279 Speaker 1: what Hungary top team? I mean, who the hell is 1045 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 1: out there competing in Hungary? I don't even know. Certainly 1046 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 1: the Europeans have a better kickboxing background, which he does 1047 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,480 Speaker 1: have one. But he is turning out you can see. 1048 00:42:56,520 --> 00:42:59,919 Speaker 1: I think, yes, that's him there. I believe, No, that's 1049 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:03,200 Speaker 1: Emmanuel Sanchez. Point being is he had a good night too. 1050 00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:06,000 Speaker 1: Point being is the guy has slowly gotten better and 1051 00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,799 Speaker 1: better and better. Bellator's Featherway division is for real. It's 1052 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,720 Speaker 1: very good. It's why that they can have this tournament 1053 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,520 Speaker 1: to begin with. And then he keeps landing this flying 1054 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:17,239 Speaker 1: double switch knee. People have no idea what to do 1055 00:43:17,280 --> 00:43:19,080 Speaker 1: with it. Pat Curran is a very tested veteran and 1056 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:22,920 Speaker 1: he's not been competing as a pro, and only a pro. 1057 00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: He's been a pro, but he's been like, here's a 1058 00:43:25,080 --> 00:43:27,160 Speaker 1: Joe job Now, nothing wrong with I'm just saying he's not. 1059 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:29,839 Speaker 1: He's not one hundred percent in the gym. So it's 1060 00:43:29,840 --> 00:43:31,919 Speaker 1: still to me a developmental win for this guy. 1061 00:43:32,160 --> 00:43:34,520 Speaker 2: But when you finish someone at that level. 1062 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:35,960 Speaker 1: Would you finish the one at that level with those 1063 00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:37,880 Speaker 1: kinds of steaks? When if he was the one, by 1064 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 1: the way, it was kind of evenish on the feet, 1065 00:43:39,920 --> 00:43:41,840 Speaker 1: and then who took a risk that guy did, and 1066 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 1: he took the risk and finished him off. He's got 1067 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 1: great finishing instincts. I have my eye on Adam Borch. 1068 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:48,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, I got a double back on that and just 1069 00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 2: and put it right down. Borsch made the news with Pico. 1070 00:43:51,120 --> 00:43:53,200 Speaker 2: I've got Rushad Evans on my State of Combat podcast 1071 00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 2: every week. Who's in the gym at Hard Knocks three 1072 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 2: sixty five with with Adam Bordgin is telling you. I'm 1073 00:43:57,360 --> 00:44:00,080 Speaker 2: telling you this guy's gonna win the tournament from day one. 1074 00:44:00,280 --> 00:44:03,200 Speaker 2: I think he's certainly making that early announcement that he's 1075 00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 2: the wild card, that he's the potential star. And the 1076 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,400 Speaker 2: thing I love about tournaments, and this is a sixteen 1077 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 2: man one that Beltzer is doing at featherweight, so it's 1078 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:13,279 Speaker 2: even more entertainment. But the point of these tournaments at 1079 00:44:13,320 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 2: its core is a lot of times a star can 1080 00:44:15,600 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 2: be born. Remember Andre Ward in the super six super 1081 00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 2: middleweight tournament that was on Showtime. Remember this Heavyweight Grand 1082 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 2: Prix that we're looking at names like fad Or in Chail, 1083 00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 2: but it's Ryan Bader who surprises us and goes from 1084 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 2: being sort of an average name fighter to must see 1085 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 2: two division champion. This sports might be the guy that 1086 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 2: comes out of here and really puts that stamp on 1087 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,439 Speaker 2: him that he's next in their brand, in the bell 1088 00:44:38,560 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 2: tore bracket, in that division and maybe overall in the sport. 1089 00:44:41,360 --> 00:44:44,200 Speaker 2: He seems to have a plus side ceiling that's above 1090 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:46,399 Speaker 2: even some of the other guys who had impressive wins on. 1091 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,400 Speaker 1: SARA And good news for European MM. They finally have 1092 00:44:48,440 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: another guy who's out there slowly getting done and not 1093 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 1: from an MMA hotbed, although he has now moved to 1094 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:55,800 Speaker 1: a place where he can get elite modern best practices. 1095 00:44:55,840 --> 00:44:57,719 Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's good for the development of the 1096 00:44:57,719 --> 00:44:58,400 Speaker 1: sport worldwide. 1097 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:00,600 Speaker 2: I can't let you roll off a belitoy without I 1098 00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:03,439 Speaker 2: mean Rampage coming in and pushing Beator and now Ryan 1099 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:07,839 Speaker 2: bab was it Fador Betor or Fader Batter that that's 1100 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:11,120 Speaker 2: neither of those? Okay? Does that? Does that do anything? 1101 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:15,799 Speaker 2: Bata already says, Okay, was that more cringe than when 1102 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:18,640 Speaker 2: uh Stephan Bonner brought out the guy in the mask 1103 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:19,880 Speaker 2: and uh. 1104 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:24,520 Speaker 1: Stephan Bonner Justin McCully.

It's gonna be on Dizonne. You have a 1122 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,279 Speaker 1: whether you like them or hate him, a real deal 1123 00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:13,839 Speaker 1: promoter in boxing getting behind this. Folks have said how 1124 00:46:13,840 --> 00:46:15,680 Speaker 1: should fight fans feel about it? I'm gonna tell you 1125 00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:19,120 Speaker 1: how you should feel about it. There is too much 1126 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:24,000 Speaker 1: money to be made for any organization or promoter in 1127 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 1: boxing where the standards are as low. I mean they 1128 00:46:27,080 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: literally have to pass laws to maintain standards. If they 1129 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:32,719 Speaker 1: could have somebody fight a dead body like weekend at 1130 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,439 Speaker 1: Bernie's in this business, they would. Okay. So the point 1131 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:38,600 Speaker 1: being is, if you're Eddie Hearn and knowing that Eddie 1132 00:46:38,600 --> 00:46:40,440 Speaker 1: Hearn's going to Saudi Arabia, I mean, trust me, he 1133 00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,680 Speaker 1: has no problem taking questionable amounts of money and from 1134 00:46:42,719 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 1: questionable sources. He's gonna look at this. He's gonna say 1135 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:48,160 Speaker 1: no thanks, guys, I've got standards to maintain. The point 1136 00:46:48,160 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: being is they're just gonna do it and you have 1137 00:46:51,800 --> 00:46:54,239 Speaker 1: no ability to stop it. You can belly ache all 1138 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:56,719 Speaker 1: you want, it's still gonna go forward. You can make 1139 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,320 Speaker 1: an argument that de Zone needs it for the younger audience, 1140 00:46:59,400 --> 00:47:02,359 Speaker 1: for forms of growth, and at the end of the day, 1141 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,920 Speaker 1: all you have to do is not watch it. I 1142 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 1: think it's dumb, obviously. I think these two have you know, 1143 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:11,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you ever seen that movie with all Schwarzenegger 1144 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:15,360 Speaker 1: and Danny DeVito called Twins, Well, we're Schwarzenegger apparently the 1145 00:47:15,440 --> 00:47:19,360 Speaker 1: premier all right, for folks who have seen that the premises, 1146 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 1: Schwarzenegger in the Womb got all the genetic gifts from 1147 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:26,760 Speaker 1: intellect to Braun and Danny DeVito got quote the leftover crap. 1148 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 1: These two are the leftover genetic crap. I don't know 1149 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,040 Speaker 1: who their twins would be, but that that's what you 1150 00:47:32,120 --> 00:47:33,920 Speaker 1: have here. It doesn't matter what you think of them, 1151 00:47:33,960 --> 00:47:35,600 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what I think of them. It's gonna 1152 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:37,560 Speaker 1: make money. It's gonna make money for the sources involved. 1153 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 1: You can't stop people in that circumstance from just doing 1154 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:42,000 Speaker 1: what they're gonna do. Just ignore it. 1155 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:44,919 Speaker 2: They're putting real fights like Billy Joe Saunders, the former 1156 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:46,879 Speaker 2: middleweight title holders. It's gonna be in the Cole main 1157 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,200 Speaker 2: event here. It's super smart at his own because they 1158 00:47:49,280 --> 00:47:50,959 Speaker 2: got to make things happen. We thought we were gonna 1159 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,239 Speaker 2: get all these big name fights, Triple G, Canelo three 1160 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 2: not happening. This is more to smart from a financial 1161 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 2: standpoint of them and her. And let's not forget the 1162 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 2: first fight between KSI and Logan Paul, which had headgear on. 1163 00:48:00,840 --> 00:48:03,040 Speaker 2: It was an amateur fight, was presented as a real 1164 00:48:03,080 --> 00:48:04,920 Speaker 2: pay per view in England but for less money and 1165 00:48:05,280 --> 00:48:07,680 Speaker 2: around the world. I think it was ten fifteen dollars. 1166 00:48:08,000 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 2: It sold over a million pay per views did and 1167 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:13,919 Speaker 2: in twenty nineteen post Mayweather Pacchiou pay per view era 1168 00:48:14,000 --> 00:48:16,960 Speaker 2: where it's harder to reach that threshold because people are 1169 00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:19,160 Speaker 2: sort of worn out by it. To have any two 1170 00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 2: people get in a ring and move a million is 1171 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 2: big business, so you can't be mad at it. But 1172 00:48:25,280 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 2: combat sports, which is the red light district of regular 1173 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 2: sports where Sugar was right, it's the only place where 1174 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,319 Speaker 2: it could happen, Luke, and we know this, so it 1175 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:35,920 Speaker 2: doesn't really you're wasting your time getting upset at it. 1176 00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 2: It's really no different than Sampunk getting a chance in 1177 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 2: the UFC or that Kimbo sliced Dot. 1178 00:48:40,960 --> 00:48:42,880 Speaker 1: It's categorically different, but not a five. 1179 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,239 Speaker 2: Thousand heart attack match. It's really the same type of crap. 1180 00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:46,719 Speaker 2: I mean, the NBA. You know you're not gonna see 1181 00:48:46,719 --> 00:48:48,840 Speaker 2: the Globe Trotters be entered into the NBA playoffs. You 1182 00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:51,600 Speaker 2: can't see that type of thing where you don't earn 1183 00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:53,920 Speaker 2: it to get to that point. I don't hate that 1184 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,680 Speaker 2: a real promoter and a real network would get involved. 1185 00:48:57,239 --> 00:48:59,919 Speaker 2: I don't necessarily want to see it on a regular 1186 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,360 Speaker 2: basis though. I don't want to see an escalation of it. 1187 00:49:02,560 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 2: I don't want to see a combination like do you 1188 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:08,719 Speaker 2: remember the one of the low moments in boxing pay 1189 00:49:08,719 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 2: per view history, Luke, Oh, Jesus, right around two thousand 1190 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,320 Speaker 2: and eight or nine, when Mike Tyson had officially retired, 1191 00:49:14,560 --> 00:49:17,200 Speaker 2: but he was doing a world tour of sparring and 1192 00:49:17,239 --> 00:49:19,759 Speaker 2: he went in there against Cory t Rex Sanders with 1193 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 2: the big gut, who wore a sleeveless T shirt, and 1194 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,320 Speaker 2: they put on a pay per view card in Cincinnati 1195 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 2: that had real fights lead it up to the main event, 1196 00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:28,520 Speaker 2: which was Tyson and a fat guy in a T 1197 00:49:28,640 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 2: shirt sparring for three rounds, and that bombs so badly 1198 00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:36,880 Speaker 2: and came off in such bad taste that they canceled 1199 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:38,719 Speaker 2: the subsequent world tour that they were going to do 1200 00:49:38,800 --> 00:49:41,600 Speaker 2: with it, which was a good thing. If these type 1201 00:49:41,640 --> 00:49:43,720 Speaker 2: of one offs are fine, but like, look, if Lebron 1202 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:45,880 Speaker 2: Tomorrow got in an argument with Antonio Brown and they 1203 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 2: wanted to settle in a ring, we'd be fired the 1204 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 2: hell up. That this was a boxing match with two 1205 00:49:49,440 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 2: giant celebrities, that's fine. I just don't want to see 1206 00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:56,640 Speaker 2: the hoaring out of regular combat sports promoters and networks 1207 00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,680 Speaker 2: become a I almost like to keep this thing separate. Like, 1208 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,040 Speaker 2: if you're going to do that, then give me some 1209 00:50:01,120 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 2: other slop with it, give me some celebrity boxing. 1210 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:05,120 Speaker 1: It's amazing though, what YouTube popularity allows you to do 1211 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:06,880 Speaker 1: and being kind of serious. These guys are known for 1212 00:50:06,880 --> 00:50:09,600 Speaker 1: whatever they're known for Logan Paul for I mean for what, 1213 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:13,320 Speaker 1: having the world's doucheus attitude and watching people hang themselves 1214 00:50:13,360 --> 00:50:16,120 Speaker 1: in Japan and KSI couldn't name one song he did, 1215 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 1: but I looked at his numbers. He has twenty million 1216 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:19,040 Speaker 1: subscribers on you. 1217 00:50:19,120 --> 00:50:21,880 Speaker 2: They have more subscribers on their social media channels than 1218 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:23,680 Speaker 2: there are in many world nations. 1219 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:25,040 Speaker 1: So this this is the point I'm trying to raise. 1220 00:50:25,120 --> 00:50:28,760 Speaker 1: It's like, if you can generate enough of your own audience, 1221 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:33,400 Speaker 1: they become attached to you. Once they become attached to you, 1222 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,520 Speaker 1: you can basically go and do whatever you want. Not 1223 00:50:35,560 --> 00:50:37,160 Speaker 1: whatever you want, but I mean you you kind of 1224 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 1: sell it to them a little bit. But the point 1225 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: is it allows for this creative and I frankly, this 1226 00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,440 Speaker 1: freedom of identity to go and be something else that 1227 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:45,960 Speaker 1: you're not really they're not. I mean, they're gonna be 1228 00:50:46,080 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 1: pro boxers and not really pro boxers. So YouTube allows 1229 00:50:48,880 --> 00:50:50,920 Speaker 1: this kind of true and it brings in an audience 1230 00:50:50,960 --> 00:50:54,520 Speaker 1: that's sorry if they're not bringing in boxing fans, but 1231 00:50:54,560 --> 00:50:57,440 Speaker 1: they're bringing an audience that ordinarily would never watch boxing. 1232 00:50:57,560 --> 00:50:59,239 Speaker 2: The reason why I even though I don't want to 1233 00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:01,680 Speaker 2: necessarily see this long term because I think it it 1234 00:51:01,920 --> 00:51:05,240 Speaker 2: really puts a water down stain on the true elite 1235 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,440 Speaker 2: level of boxing or MMA. Whenever you do stuff like this, 1236 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:08,759 Speaker 2: right you put. 1237 00:51:08,719 --> 00:51:10,799 Speaker 1: Yes, I wouldn't want to stay in the uh. 1238 00:51:10,760 --> 00:51:12,319 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying though, But the. 1239 00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:14,000 Speaker 1: Upstated behavior of Dillian White. 1240 00:51:14,080 --> 00:51:15,680 Speaker 2: I think the difference in this case is I watched 1241 00:51:15,680 --> 00:51:18,360 Speaker 2: that first KSI Paul bout, Jesus Christ? 1242 00:51:18,400 --> 00:51:18,759 Speaker 1: Did you? 1243 00:51:18,880 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 2: And you know what wrong with you? They respectfully respected 1244 00:51:22,880 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 2: the sport, They took training camp seriously, and they fought 1245 00:51:25,680 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 2: in a celebrity bout as if they were trying to 1246 00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 2: be actual boxers. And we've seen garbage plate celebrity boxing 1247 00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:33,600 Speaker 2: in the past. Remember Fox had that series that was 1248 00:51:33,680 --> 00:51:35,799 Speaker 2: Musty TV. You had to sit down here high break 1249 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 2: from It had Todd Bridges. I mean, it was just 1250 00:51:38,680 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 2: it was, you know the kind of stuff I eat 1251 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:42,200 Speaker 2: when I when I built the car, it was that 1252 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 2: like reccoon. Uh, but that's slop, that's barstool sports, hot 1253 00:51:47,320 --> 00:51:49,160 Speaker 2: and heavy, rough and routy whatever they call it. Yeah, 1254 00:51:49,360 --> 00:51:51,920 Speaker 2: Cassi and Logan Paul are taking this super serious. So 1255 00:51:52,000 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 2: I can actually respect that. I can respect seem I 1256 00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,840 Speaker 2: can respect see him punk to a certain degree. Not 1257 00:51:58,000 --> 00:51:58,560 Speaker 2: the matchmaking. 1258 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,200 Speaker 1: Respect anybody who take the martial arts seriously, but that 1259 00:52:01,239 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 1: doesn't mean they belong in the ultiplying Championship. One thing 1260 00:52:04,000 --> 00:52:05,719 Speaker 1: I'll say about this, did you okay? So here's how 1261 00:52:05,719 --> 00:52:07,760 Speaker 1: it worked, and then we'll move on to dms from donks. 1262 00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:09,759 Speaker 1: Did you see the videos that they each had to 1263 00:52:09,760 --> 00:52:11,120 Speaker 1: put out after the announcement? 1264 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:12,240 Speaker 2: No, I don't get into the building. 1265 00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 1: Okay, So hold on. Here's how I found it because 1266 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:16,080 Speaker 1: I was checking trending on YouTube and had ald trending videos. 1267 00:52:16,239 --> 00:52:18,319 Speaker 1: They had to do one of the same things. They 1268 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:20,000 Speaker 1: both had to have the same thumbnail, which was the 1269 00:52:20,000 --> 00:52:22,160 Speaker 1: fight poster, and then they both had to have that 1270 00:52:22,239 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 1: ad they had made like this time no headgear. They 1271 00:52:24,560 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 1: both had to have that as the pre roll, and 1272 00:52:26,800 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 1: then they got to do whatever they want. KSI decided 1273 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:32,360 Speaker 1: to make like a interview where he's sitting in the 1274 00:52:32,360 --> 00:52:34,200 Speaker 1: boxing room and it's all black and he's getting interviewed. 1275 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:38,399 Speaker 1: It did quite well, Okay. Then Loogan Paul made one 1276 00:52:38,840 --> 00:52:41,160 Speaker 1: where he's like, here's twelve reasons why I'm gonna win, 1277 00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:43,319 Speaker 1: and then it's he has his friends with him for 1278 00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:45,680 Speaker 1: every all the twelve and the reasons are flimsy. He's like, 1279 00:52:45,719 --> 00:52:49,120 Speaker 1: I've got big dick energy. Oh snap, And next one 1280 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:51,880 Speaker 1: he's like, I like to wear my hat backwards. Oh. 1281 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,160 Speaker 1: I was sticking to myself. He got super downvoted, like 1282 00:52:54,200 --> 00:52:56,880 Speaker 1: fifty thousand down votes. I was sticking to myself. This 1283 00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 1: is the worst thing I've ever seen. And if some 1284 00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:02,480 Speaker 1: when an MMA did this, I'd have to hear from 1285 00:53:02,520 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 1: the MMA media how creative it was. That was the 1286 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:07,880 Speaker 1: first thing I thought about, Like, this is literally. 1287 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 2: This is thin p D should be legalized. 1288 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:11,560 Speaker 1: I don't think D should be legalized. 1289 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 2: Animals. 1290 00:53:13,239 --> 00:53:16,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'd rather have ebola shot in my face than 1291 00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:18,480 Speaker 1: watch that ad again. And I guarantee you there's never 1292 00:53:18,520 --> 00:53:19,480 Speaker 1: the MA media being. 1293 00:53:19,360 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 2: Like bra woa is. How do you compare this though? 1294 00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 2: To Maywehi McGregor. 1295 00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: People have asked me that the answer is this, whatever 1296 00:53:30,120 --> 00:53:31,960 Speaker 1: else you want to say about that match, which was 1297 00:53:31,960 --> 00:53:34,760 Speaker 1: it Was it a money grab? Yes? Was it uneven 1298 00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 1: from the get go? Yes? In the end, man, you 1299 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:42,319 Speaker 1: had two like legitimately decorated combat athletes yes, and you 1300 00:53:42,440 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 1: kind of knew what it was about. I mean, okay, 1301 00:53:44,160 --> 00:53:46,040 Speaker 1: there was a Donks who didn't, but for the most part, 1302 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:47,799 Speaker 1: like everyone in the media was like, hey, they're just 1303 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 1: Connor's gonna get rich, Flod's gonna get rich. It's just 1304 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:53,360 Speaker 1: kind of a curiosity thing in that sense. I didn't 1305 00:53:53,360 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 1: find it nearly as bad and the scale was bigger, 1306 00:53:55,520 --> 00:53:57,680 Speaker 1: but like in the end, it's like, okay, fine. 1307 00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 2: I think because it wasn't a slaughter in the end, 1308 00:53:59,800 --> 00:54:01,359 Speaker 2: would which was our fear. And even though it was 1309 00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:04,000 Speaker 2: one sided in the end, I think the fact that 1310 00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:06,719 Speaker 2: it looked like somewhat too competitive fighters to a certain 1311 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:09,720 Speaker 2: degree and a degree and I think so are Logan 1312 00:54:09,800 --> 00:54:11,759 Speaker 2: and Paul and Ks either are kind of on the. 1313 00:54:11,680 --> 00:54:13,359 Speaker 1: Same permission is going to have to regulate it. 1314 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:15,319 Speaker 2: It's kind of the same thing in a weird way. 1315 00:54:15,360 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 2: And I and I don't hate either one. I just 1316 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:19,480 Speaker 2: I don't want to live in the space. I don't 1317 00:54:19,480 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 2: want this to become the new reality. But look, it 1318 00:54:22,719 --> 00:54:24,759 Speaker 2: can only happen to combat sports. Lucas, all right, it's 1319 00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,800 Speaker 2: the man you are.

True Jim, 1390 00:57:18,880 --> 00:57:21,120 Speaker 1: a Russian YouTube channel with two point seven million followers, 1391 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: has one point seven million views for Habib's postfight press conference, 1392 00:57:24,120 --> 00:57:26,840 Speaker 1: but five point eight for Dustin's. I don't know how 1393 00:57:26,840 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 1: many followers Poario had on Instagram before, but he almost 1394 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:30,800 Speaker 1: hits one million. Now, what do you think. 1395 00:57:31,680 --> 00:57:33,360 Speaker 2: I try not to This sounds like a big pile 1396 00:57:33,400 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 2: of nerd. You got a response to this? 1397 00:57:35,640 --> 00:57:39,000 Speaker 1: You seriously don't have a response to the question. Did 1398 00:57:39,080 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 1: Dustin Parier gain fans through the gracefulness by which he 1399 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:44,440 Speaker 1: handled the loss? 1400 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,200 Speaker 2: Yes? I didn't hear that question the first time. 1401 00:57:46,200 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 1: You read it simply what he's asking. 1402 00:57:47,800 --> 00:57:49,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, he did that. There was and I touched on 1403 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:53,360 Speaker 2: that earlier. It was touching, touching the way I mean 1404 00:57:53,360 --> 00:57:56,120 Speaker 2: he showed you that. Like I said, there's no excuses. 1405 00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 2: He gave every ounce of himself to this fight, to 1406 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:02,520 Speaker 2: this resurgence his career, to that moment, and he just 1407 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,600 Speaker 2: came up short. And the way that he handled himself 1408 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:08,280 Speaker 2: was it was equally heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time. 1409 00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:11,280 Speaker 1: I gotta tell you, when you watch sports, you learn 1410 00:58:11,320 --> 00:58:14,120 Speaker 1: a lot of things, one of which is how to win. 1411 00:58:15,120 --> 00:58:17,160 Speaker 1: Dustin Poarier taught you how to lose. Now, I know 1412 00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:18,920 Speaker 1: that that's not a thing he wants to be known for. 1413 00:58:19,040 --> 00:58:21,000 Speaker 1: I don't think he should in general, But what I 1414 00:58:21,040 --> 00:58:24,960 Speaker 1: mean is the context you're setting is correct. Dude, this 1415 00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 1: is Dustin Poarier. I didn't think he was going to 1416 00:58:26,680 --> 00:58:28,600 Speaker 1: beat Max Holloway, and then he beat the brakes off 1417 00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:31,000 Speaker 1: of him. And he came in there beating Anthony Pettis. 1418 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:33,000 Speaker 1: He stopped, just engaged he with strikes. He got revenge 1419 00:58:33,000 --> 00:58:35,800 Speaker 1: on Eddie Alvarez. He beat Max Alloway. He had forty 1420 00:58:35,800 --> 00:58:37,560 Speaker 1: fights under his belt. He was a black belt in 1421 00:58:37,600 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 1: jiu jitsu. He was ready for that moment. He's not 1422 00:58:39,720 --> 00:58:42,360 Speaker 1: shot worn either. You know, he had a great training kid, He. 1423 00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:43,840 Speaker 2: Had a nine great education. Like what he's done with 1424 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:44,160 Speaker 2: his life. 1425 00:58:44,200 --> 00:58:46,120 Speaker 1: He's look. Look, he looked to be in great physical 1426 00:58:46,120 --> 00:58:49,680 Speaker 1: condition and he lost at the moment he thought he 1427 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 1: was going to have it all. It was all taken 1428 00:58:51,800 --> 00:58:54,440 Speaker 1: from him. And look at the grace that he showed. 1429 00:58:54,840 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 1: I'm sure that has been excruciatingly painful for him to 1430 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 1: deal with. He taught people, I mean this absolutely as 1431 00:59:01,120 --> 00:59:04,000 Speaker 1: a compliment. He taught people how to lose with grace 1432 00:59:04,160 --> 00:59:07,480 Speaker 1: and humility. Uh on the on, not just a tough 1433 00:59:07,480 --> 00:59:10,600 Speaker 1: stage in his life, but professionally, maybe the very toughest. 1434 00:59:10,920 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 1: So if he doesn't get fans from that, if you 1435 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:15,120 Speaker 1: if you didn't like the Gatechee knockout, maybe this is 1436 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:18,440 Speaker 1: more for you. I don't know, all right, Uh I 1437 00:59:18,440 --> 00:59:24,880 Speaker 1: can never pronounce these Irish names. Ocean ocean Uh. Apple 1438 00:59:24,920 --> 00:59:28,600 Speaker 1: Sauce says, is there any chance of Diaz versus Mass 1439 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:32,959 Speaker 1: with all out selling Diaz versus McGregor. No, The answer 1440 00:59:33,000 --> 00:59:33,480 Speaker 1: is no. 1441 00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:35,800 Speaker 2: The answer is no. But that is an interesting question. 1442 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:37,120 Speaker 1: Someone asked me this. Let me let me pick it 1443 00:59:37,120 --> 00:59:38,720 Speaker 1: back up, picture right back to you. Can it Can 1444 00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:39,760 Speaker 1: it beat a million buys? 1445 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:41,760 Speaker 2: That's that's the ques. That's the right question right here 1446 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:44,000 Speaker 2: to ask. We're gonna assume, based on Dana's words and 1447 00:59:44,000 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 2: based on the MSG history, that it will be a 1448 00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 2: loaded card from the standpoint of Fights Week. You know, 1449 00:59:48,320 --> 00:59:51,920 Speaker 2: we really want to see in recognizable names it cannot 1450 00:59:51,960 --> 00:59:57,040 Speaker 2: reach a million because ultimately, in the grand scheme, Nay 1451 00:59:57,080 --> 01:00:02,520 Speaker 2: Diaz is is like the greatest B side from a promotional. 1452 01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,960 Speaker 1: Paide you on this show and just I mean you, 1453 01:00:05,360 --> 01:00:07,680 Speaker 1: I mean you just take someone's career and you. 1454 01:00:09,400 --> 01:00:11,800 Speaker 2: What I do is I don't sit in the pile 1455 01:00:11,840 --> 01:00:13,040 Speaker 2: of feelings. I'm telling you the truth. 1456 01:00:13,080 --> 01:00:13,720 Speaker 1: Here, all right. 1457 01:00:13,800 --> 01:00:15,919 Speaker 2: I want Nate ds to essentially become an A side, 1458 01:00:15,920 --> 01:00:18,040 Speaker 2: which is getting the chance to in this fight, right, Yeah, 1459 01:00:18,120 --> 01:00:21,440 Speaker 2: I think he has that potentially. Historically though, he's like 1460 01:00:21,600 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 2: the greatest marketing B side, and that's not a slant. 1461 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:26,960 Speaker 2: He played a villain up to that point, an anti 1462 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 2: hero opposite Connor, so he was the perfect B side. 1463 01:00:29,720 --> 01:00:32,640 Speaker 2: So because he hasn't had an establishment yet as a 1464 01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:35,000 Speaker 2: consistent A side, I think this will dry a lot 1465 01:00:35,040 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 2: of interest. I think it'll do very big business for them. 1466 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,320 Speaker 2: But in twenty nineteen, to get to that one million 1467 01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:43,320 Speaker 2: pay per view by number in boxing outside of the 1468 01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:46,160 Speaker 2: Glovekin Canela fights, no one has done that back since 1469 01:00:46,640 --> 01:00:49,560 Speaker 2: Mayweather in Pacia or Mayweather and McGregor. It's not something 1470 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:52,840 Speaker 2: you can consistently do. And UFC unless it's what Luke, 1471 01:00:52,920 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 2: unless it's Connor or Brock or a couple times Prime Rousey, 1472 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 2: it barely ever happens. So I don't think we get there. 1473 01:01:00,320 --> 01:01:03,439 Speaker 2: But I love what this fight can do for both 1474 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:03,840 Speaker 2: of the brands. 1475 01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:06,280 Speaker 1: The point to the point is this, it doesn't need 1476 01:01:06,320 --> 01:01:08,960 Speaker 1: to hit a million to be outrageously successful, exactly. I 1477 01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:10,640 Speaker 1: guess the seven hundred and fifty thousand, which I do 1478 01:01:10,680 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 1: think is doable. 1479 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 2: And one thing you asked me in the beginning was 1480 01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:14,960 Speaker 2: what I love about this fight. I love that both 1481 01:01:14,960 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 2: guys are getting a chance to become a star. There 1482 01:01:16,680 --> 01:01:18,520 Speaker 2: can't be a loser in this fight. Somebody's only going 1483 01:01:18,560 --> 01:01:21,280 Speaker 2: to lose momentum whoever loses it. This is a sort 1484 01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:23,400 Speaker 2: of like, let's prop up both guys at the same 1485 01:01:23,440 --> 01:01:25,040 Speaker 2: time and find out what they can be. But no, 1486 01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:26,840 Speaker 2: to answer to the question, I cannot out do what 1487 01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:27,840 Speaker 2: McGregor and deistic. 1488 01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 1: Okay, so this comes to us from Purple Smurf fifteen 1489 01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:34,760 Speaker 1: to ten. It's a real name. What are you guys? 1490 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 1: Thoughts on scorecards getting shown after every round? Combat sports 1491 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:40,720 Speaker 1: are the only sports with the competitors don't know for 1492 01:01:40,760 --> 01:01:42,640 Speaker 1: sure if they are winning or losing. So this is 1493 01:01:42,640 --> 01:01:44,440 Speaker 1: a caught question I get fairly often, Brian. I have 1494 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,800 Speaker 1: the same answer every time, which is, if you ask 1495 01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:50,320 Speaker 1: people who are four, it's called open scoring. Basically, if 1496 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,080 Speaker 1: you are four open scoring, here's the argument you'll get. Hey, man, 1497 01:01:53,200 --> 01:01:55,040 Speaker 1: if you're down two rounds or four rounds, whatever the 1498 01:01:55,280 --> 01:01:57,000 Speaker 1: nature of the fight is, and you see you're down 1499 01:01:57,040 --> 01:01:59,520 Speaker 1: fifth rounds coming up it'll drive you to win, and 1500 01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:02,520 Speaker 1: then to beeople who don't like open scoring will suggest, well, 1501 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:04,120 Speaker 1: here's the other part. What if you're up two rounds, 1502 01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:05,800 Speaker 1: you'll look up and say, O money. Oh, I'll just 1503 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,360 Speaker 1: coast right. So in other words, both sides seem to 1504 01:02:09,400 --> 01:02:13,720 Speaker 1: casually ignore that they're that the that the opposite scenario 1505 01:02:13,720 --> 01:02:16,960 Speaker 1: of which they use to offer their arguments for their 1506 01:02:17,120 --> 01:02:21,160 Speaker 1: cause end up undercutting their own argument. I guess my 1507 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:24,160 Speaker 1: answer would be as follows. I'm open to just about anything, 1508 01:02:24,640 --> 01:02:26,840 Speaker 1: but the problem is we don't have enough data to 1509 01:02:26,880 --> 01:02:28,880 Speaker 1: really know exactly how it's going to go. We've seen 1510 01:02:28,880 --> 01:02:31,400 Speaker 1: it worked in were used in kickboxing to mixed results. 1511 01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:34,200 Speaker 1: We've seen it using MMA in certain cases to mixed results. 1512 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:36,439 Speaker 1: I would be willing to try it if the UFC 1513 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:38,560 Speaker 1: wanted to innovate when they went overseas and they can 1514 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,120 Speaker 1: self regulate, i'd be I'd be interested in seeing them 1515 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,760 Speaker 1: try it there and then get a larger body of 1516 01:02:44,040 --> 01:02:46,160 Speaker 1: information to make a call about it. But here's what 1517 01:02:46,200 --> 01:02:48,440 Speaker 1: I want to say. If this is yours, I'm not 1518 01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:50,960 Speaker 1: suggesting that the person asking this is saying this, but 1519 01:02:51,080 --> 01:02:52,440 Speaker 1: a lot of people think, oh, here's a problem with 1520 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:54,400 Speaker 1: the ten point must system. Let's put in open scoring. 1521 01:02:54,480 --> 01:02:56,520 Speaker 1: That will fix it. If you think that the way 1522 01:02:56,560 --> 01:02:59,920 Speaker 1: to fix open ten point must system is with open scoring, 1523 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 1: you are going to be very much let down. It 1524 01:03:02,280 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 1: is an interesting feature if you think you might get 1525 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:06,280 Speaker 1: better fights. In the end, I tend to think you 1526 01:03:06,360 --> 01:03:08,720 Speaker 1: probably it's a wash in the end. I don't really know, 1527 01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:11,200 Speaker 1: but that's my hunch. But what I know for Shore Brian, 1528 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:13,560 Speaker 1: it doesn't fix the problems with the tempoints system even 1529 01:03:13,560 --> 01:03:13,920 Speaker 1: a little bit. 1530 01:03:13,960 --> 01:03:16,160 Speaker 2: It doesn't fix any scoring problems. I don't like it 1531 01:03:16,280 --> 01:03:18,200 Speaker 2: for entertainment purposes. I don't even like it for the 1532 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:21,160 Speaker 2: reasons you mentioned for the fighters. Boxing has tried this 1533 01:03:21,240 --> 01:03:24,000 Speaker 2: at times. The WBC has an open scoring policy that 1534 01:03:24,200 --> 01:03:26,960 Speaker 2: sometimes in random spots. It's negotiated into the deal in 1535 01:03:27,040 --> 01:03:29,120 Speaker 2: some states, and it happens the last big fight I 1536 01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:30,760 Speaker 2: can really remember what it happened. I don't have remember 1537 01:03:30,800 --> 01:03:33,160 Speaker 2: twenty thirteen in the Alamo Dome when Canela overs had 1538 01:03:33,200 --> 01:03:35,960 Speaker 2: that one fifty four pound unification pot without Austin trout 1539 01:03:36,560 --> 01:03:38,360 Speaker 2: and it was a fight where at the eight round mark. 1540 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 2: So how the WBC does is they announced it. I 1541 01:03:40,320 --> 01:03:42,440 Speaker 2: believe at the fourth and eighth rounds of the two 1542 01:03:42,480 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 2: times right in a fight where they announce it publicly, 1543 01:03:45,040 --> 01:03:47,320 Speaker 2: and at the eighth round. I had that fight for 1544 01:03:47,520 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 2: four It was close, and I think one judge had 1545 01:03:50,000 --> 01:03:52,080 Speaker 2: eight nothing Canelo. A second judge had it like seven 1546 01:03:52,160 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 2: to one. So if you're Austin Trout at that point, 1547 01:03:54,240 --> 01:03:56,240 Speaker 2: this is just that specific fight guy, not a lot 1548 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:58,320 Speaker 2: of power, not a finish her, more of a technical guy. 1549 01:03:58,720 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 2: You pretty much lost that fight. Knockout Canelo, You're not. 1550 01:04:01,160 --> 01:04:02,680 Speaker 2: And I know he fought more offensive down the. 1551 01:04:02,680 --> 01:04:04,800 Speaker 1: Stretch, but do you think he get knocked down after that? 1552 01:04:04,880 --> 01:04:06,440 Speaker 2: Though he did have he was knocked down and that 1553 01:04:06,600 --> 01:04:07,920 Speaker 2: was a big part of him losing what I thought 1554 01:04:08,000 --> 01:04:11,240 Speaker 2: was a close fight. But what makes combat sports is 1555 01:04:11,560 --> 01:04:13,080 Speaker 2: unique are a lot of things. But one of those 1556 01:04:13,160 --> 01:04:14,560 Speaker 2: is that you don't have that. One of those is 1557 01:04:14,640 --> 01:04:17,160 Speaker 2: that there's that subject to do, and you have it 1558 01:04:17,200 --> 01:04:19,760 Speaker 2: in jiu jitsu well and at boxing MMA, at least 1559 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 2: in this in this prize fighting sense, it's part of 1560 01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:24,080 Speaker 2: the mystery and the element of a fight. And I 1561 01:04:24,160 --> 01:04:25,960 Speaker 2: know that. Look, it's not fun when you watch a 1562 01:04:26,040 --> 01:04:27,800 Speaker 2: fight that you know in your heart was super close, 1563 01:04:27,840 --> 01:04:29,920 Speaker 2: and then the scorecards are read and it's completely right 1564 01:04:30,000 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 2: wide one way, and you're like, man, what a croc. 1565 01:04:31,840 --> 01:04:34,160 Speaker 2: We just wasted all those rounds just for this robbery. 1566 01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:37,000 Speaker 2: But I don't think it helps the sport in any 1567 01:04:37,160 --> 01:04:39,800 Speaker 2: circumstance enough to even consider making it part of it. 1568 01:04:40,200 --> 01:04:41,640 Speaker 1: It's just to me, I think in the end, it 1569 01:04:41,680 --> 01:04:44,160 Speaker 1: doesn't really It's not clear to me what it does 1570 01:04:44,280 --> 01:04:48,240 Speaker 1: to a fight to meaningfully improve it, other than transparency 1571 01:04:48,440 --> 01:04:50,360 Speaker 1: for judging malfeisons, I don't. 1572 01:04:50,400 --> 01:04:53,040 Speaker 2: I mean, look, the bottom line of this is not competition. 1573 01:04:53,120 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 2: The bottom line of this is a business and fans 1574 01:04:55,200 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 2: Luke and I don't think it helps your viewing experience 1575 01:04:57,360 --> 01:05:00,120 Speaker 2: when you know that, because some of the things in 1576 01:05:00,200 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 2: boxing that make boxing fun are the bad parts, the stains, 1577 01:05:03,240 --> 01:05:04,800 Speaker 2: the fact that, oh, that was a pretty good fight, 1578 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:06,600 Speaker 2: but watch this guy's probably gonna get screwed. Let's go 1579 01:05:06,640 --> 01:05:08,360 Speaker 2: to the scorecards. We don't like that the guy get screwed, 1580 01:05:08,440 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 2: but the fact that we anticipate that every time is 1581 01:05:10,640 --> 01:05:13,360 Speaker 2: part of the viewing experience. I think waiting that reveal 1582 01:05:13,440 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 2: is always Yeah. 1583 01:05:14,200 --> 01:05:16,280 Speaker 1: The reveal is big. The reveal is certainly big. And 1584 01:05:16,320 --> 01:05:18,800 Speaker 1: also if your sport is dictated by points, so in 1585 01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:21,040 Speaker 1: the sense of wrestling. Two for a takedown that kind 1586 01:05:21,080 --> 01:05:22,640 Speaker 1: of a thing. Then I think it makes sense to 1587 01:05:22,720 --> 01:05:25,320 Speaker 1: have a running tally. But there are only points in 1588 01:05:25,440 --> 01:05:27,360 Speaker 1: so far as ten nine ad judged for a round, 1589 01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:29,280 Speaker 1: not for a punch off, for a kick before they 1590 01:05:29,280 --> 01:05:31,080 Speaker 1: tiked on or whatever. It gives a boxing obviously different 1591 01:05:31,120 --> 01:05:33,040 Speaker 1: kinds of punches. So if you're not gonna tally punches, 1592 01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:35,040 Speaker 1: why do I need to see the running tally? So 1593 01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:38,640 Speaker 1: to speak of the scores ins far as that's true. Okay, Last, 1594 01:05:38,680 --> 01:05:41,480 Speaker 1: but not least, how do you eat your steak? There's 1595 01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:44,240 Speaker 1: only one answer to this, maybe one and a half 1596 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 1: answers to this. Please tell me you eat your steak 1597 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,360 Speaker 1: like a refined human being, not some kind of barbarian 1598 01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,880 Speaker 1: like Romulus and Riema's style. What do you think I 1599 01:05:53,320 --> 01:05:53,520 Speaker 1: was a. 1600 01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,760 Speaker 2: Uncultured person for most of my life. 1601 01:05:57,720 --> 01:05:59,840 Speaker 1: Luke, I can't believe it. 1602 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:01,600 Speaker 2: If you can tell that I grew up in a 1603 01:06:02,200 --> 01:06:05,360 Speaker 2: in a hard factory town with an urban edge to it, 1604 01:06:05,480 --> 01:06:08,080 Speaker 2: did I you know? It made me who I am today? 1605 01:06:08,200 --> 01:06:10,120 Speaker 2: This this hard worker who can eat? 1606 01:06:10,320 --> 01:06:12,120 Speaker 1: Did you Eminem from eight mile who can. 1607 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:13,600 Speaker 2: Eat out of a convenience store? At any time? 1608 01:06:13,680 --> 01:06:14,440 Speaker 1: Did you pop a dog. 1609 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:19,240 Speaker 2: I've learned in recent years what real what what men do? 1610 01:06:19,480 --> 01:06:22,880 Speaker 2: What real life is that?

The answer 1626 01:06:52,320 --> 01:06:56,440 Speaker 1: is the answer is uh medium, rare and rare are 1627 01:06:56,480 --> 01:06:59,120 Speaker 1: the only two acceptable answers. If you get your steak medium, 1628 01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:03,480 Speaker 1: you'll or a visa goth if you get it medium 1629 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:07,400 Speaker 1: well or well done. And I want to be clear 1630 01:07:07,480 --> 01:07:10,240 Speaker 1: that I'm you deserve to be killed in front of 1631 01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:13,120 Speaker 1: your loved ones. That is how awful you are. You 1632 01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:15,880 Speaker 1: have the palette of a toddler, and you are ruining America. 1633 01:07:15,920 --> 01:07:18,840 Speaker 2: Look, so you would be fully against using a one 1634 01:07:19,160 --> 01:07:20,280 Speaker 2: or ketchup at eight point. 1635 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 1: Understand I'm being serious. For what do you understand how 1636 01:07:22,680 --> 01:07:26,080 Speaker 1: the flavor works to the extent you cook it right, 1637 01:07:26,480 --> 01:07:30,600 Speaker 1: you cook out the flavor past a certain point. So 1638 01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:34,760 Speaker 1: the reason why you're putting on a one is because. 1639 01:07:34,600 --> 01:07:37,880 Speaker 2: You don't have a book steak everything all right? Then 1640 01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:39,360 Speaker 2: let me let me do this. 1641 01:07:39,480 --> 01:07:42,400 Speaker 1: Okay, I imagine cooking something to be like yo, all 1642 01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:44,320 Speaker 1: that ship that makes it tasty. Let's cook it out 1643 01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:46,280 Speaker 1: and then put a one on top of you. You 1644 01:07:46,320 --> 01:07:46,560 Speaker 1: don't know. 1645 01:07:46,680 --> 01:07:48,440 Speaker 2: I'm a ketchup fiend, and I am, and I'm a 1646 01:07:48,480 --> 01:07:50,880 Speaker 2: condiment fiend. I'll dip anything inside of that. But the 1647 01:07:50,960 --> 01:07:53,240 Speaker 2: point I'm really trying to go with this is I 1648 01:07:53,360 --> 01:07:54,919 Speaker 2: agree with you on steak. When a steak is great, 1649 01:07:54,920 --> 01:07:57,680 Speaker 2: don't don't even put anything even salt, pepper oil. Don't 1650 01:07:57,680 --> 01:07:58,800 Speaker 2: give me a play. In fact, I like go in 1651 01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:00,600 Speaker 2: those places where it cooks in front of you on 1652 01:08:00,640 --> 01:08:03,680 Speaker 2: that square, like I'll go, you know whatever, No, it 1653 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:05,360 Speaker 2: cooks in front of you on that little heating square. 1654 01:08:05,600 --> 01:08:06,440 Speaker 1: The hibachis thing. 1655 01:08:06,640 --> 01:08:08,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, did you ever go like a Portugese restaurant they 1656 01:08:08,400 --> 01:08:10,439 Speaker 2: got that they'll put the steak on the hot ass 1657 01:08:10,480 --> 01:08:12,280 Speaker 2: square in front of you, and then when it gets 1658 01:08:12,320 --> 01:08:15,200 Speaker 2: to the level that you you start cutting it, when 1659 01:08:15,240 --> 01:08:17,360 Speaker 2: it gets to the cook level that you want. But 1660 01:08:18,080 --> 01:08:20,080 Speaker 2: when you get really good steak, like let's say we 1661 01:08:20,120 --> 01:08:22,720 Speaker 2: go out most use let's say the showtime bosses are 1662 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:24,639 Speaker 2: taking out the credit card and we get really good steak, 1663 01:08:24,800 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 2: I think you'll know that the sides around it become 1664 01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,320 Speaker 2: the best you've ever had. Right, that's the best mashed potatoes, 1665 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,160 Speaker 2: corn asparagus I've ever had. Because I'm at this steakhouse 1666 01:08:33,240 --> 01:08:37,040 Speaker 2: that's ridiculously expensive. I take a piece of steak and 1667 01:08:37,120 --> 01:08:40,080 Speaker 2: dip it into the insanely good mashed potatoes because it's like, 1668 01:08:42,400 --> 01:08:46,360 Speaker 2: it's no no, But do you do you look at 1669 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:48,759 Speaker 2: that as as big of an offense as putting ketchup 1670 01:08:48,840 --> 01:08:50,799 Speaker 2: or a one on it. I think that's the melding 1671 01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:51,679 Speaker 2: of two different worlds. 1672 01:08:51,720 --> 01:08:54,439 Speaker 1: If you have to say Garsan, bring over the Hines 1673 01:08:54,479 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 1: fifty seven. 1674 01:08:55,200 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 2: Then you're an asshole. 1675 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,559 Speaker 1: You're a complete asshole. Yeah. But if they have creamed 1676 01:08:58,600 --> 01:09:00,080 Speaker 1: spinach on the table. 1677 01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 2: It's like two chicks at the same time off the space, 1678 01:09:02,600 --> 01:09:03,040 Speaker 2: and that's. 1679 01:09:03,280 --> 01:09:05,599 Speaker 1: That's Andy Ruiz is sushi girl. Yeah, I mean, yes, 1680 01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 1: you know, you might get some salmon row, you might 1681 01:09:07,320 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 1: get some eel. You're just the two mix. 1682 01:09:09,160 --> 01:09:10,640 Speaker 2: I mean, I'll eat that without my pants on, Like 1683 01:09:10,680 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 2: that's fantastic. 1684 01:09:11,479 --> 01:09:13,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I can live with that. I can live 1685 01:09:13,040 --> 01:09:15,599 Speaker 1: with that. I don't think that's so outrageous, Paul. I'll 1686 01:09:15,600 --> 01:09:18,080 Speaker 1: tell you this. When I went to Columbia, there's this 1687 01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 1: place that they called Elu middle the thing it's called 1688 01:09:21,160 --> 01:09:23,000 Speaker 1: the oven, I think that's what it means. And what 1689 01:09:23,080 --> 01:09:25,400 Speaker 1: they did was was run by all Argentinians, and they 1690 01:09:25,520 --> 01:09:27,880 Speaker 1: have these grates and the grates would be on chains, 1691 01:09:28,200 --> 01:09:30,800 Speaker 1: and they have this like things you rotate and then 1692 01:09:30,800 --> 01:09:32,799 Speaker 1: the grates would come down, and so it was just meet. 1693 01:09:32,720 --> 01:09:34,320 Speaker 2: You watching the animal die in front of you. 1694 01:09:34,720 --> 01:09:36,360 Speaker 1: No, no, no, But they did their own butchering too. 1695 01:09:36,439 --> 01:09:37,880 Speaker 1: But the point being is so you watched the meat 1696 01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:39,320 Speaker 1: get cooked on these grates and they would raise and 1697 01:09:39,360 --> 01:09:41,320 Speaker 1: lower the grade depending when you were cooking whatever. They 1698 01:09:41,400 --> 01:09:44,360 Speaker 1: bring you all the meat. First, you eat all the meat, 1699 01:09:45,040 --> 01:09:47,679 Speaker 1: and then afterwards they bring you the sides. You don't 1700 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:48,360 Speaker 1: get to combined. 1701 01:09:48,439 --> 01:09:49,160 Speaker 2: Oh wow, I. 1702 01:09:49,200 --> 01:09:50,760 Speaker 1: Wasn't sure how I felt about until I had the 1703 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:52,640 Speaker 1: sides and they were slamming so I was like, all right, 1704 01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:53,280 Speaker 1: you can have your. 1705 01:09:53,200 --> 01:09:55,519 Speaker 2: Hoss and eat it too. I've creeped out many of 1706 01:09:55,600 --> 01:09:56,800 Speaker 2: women in my life. I don't know if you can 1707 01:09:56,840 --> 01:09:59,439 Speaker 2: guess that, but I can't believe but what I do 1708 01:09:59,560 --> 01:10:02,360 Speaker 2: with these matresses, And as I asked a legitimate question, they're. 1709 01:10:02,200 --> 01:10:04,120 Speaker 1: The only guy who like, like like preferred to go 1710 01:10:04,200 --> 01:10:04,920 Speaker 1: to prom stag. 1711 01:10:05,520 --> 01:10:09,439 Speaker 2: I basically ask them, how soon can I eat the steak? Like, 1712 01:10:09,520 --> 01:10:12,360 Speaker 2: how soon from the level of butchering? Is it a 1713 01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:14,360 Speaker 2: safety eat the steak? Because I would assume that it 1714 01:10:14,400 --> 01:10:17,040 Speaker 2: would taste the best as soon as you could possibly 1715 01:10:17,080 --> 01:10:19,280 Speaker 2: eat it. I don't know what the answer is, like, 1716 01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:21,479 Speaker 2: if I could have it same day? Is that possible? 1717 01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:23,840 Speaker 1: He's saying, Oh, they say in the back you should 1718 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:26,080 Speaker 1: age a stak. Yeah, and there's two kinds of aging, 1719 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 1: dry age and wet age too, which gets a whole 1720 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:29,800 Speaker 1: another thing. Yeah. All right. 1721 01:10:29,840 --> 01:10:31,639 Speaker 2: By the way, did you ever see that OTL special 1722 01:10:31,680 --> 01:10:33,800 Speaker 2: on ESPN about ten years ago where they talked about 1723 01:10:33,840 --> 01:10:37,040 Speaker 2: in Japan, there's this side business that's getting under fire 1724 01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:42,240 Speaker 2: and that they buy old successful race horses and then 1725 01:10:42,520 --> 01:10:45,600 Speaker 2: sell the meat as a delicacy in elite steakhouses to 1726 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:49,120 Speaker 2: like the super postyle. So I would never like go 1727 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 2: out of my way to eat horse, right, But if 1728 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:52,800 Speaker 2: I'm in Japan on vacation or whatever, and I'm at 1729 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:54,800 Speaker 2: this restaurant and I have a chance to basically eat 1730 01:10:55,040 --> 01:10:57,160 Speaker 2: that guy was third in the Belmont Steaks in ninety nine, 1731 01:10:57,439 --> 01:10:58,799 Speaker 2: You're going out of your way to eat. 1732 01:10:58,680 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 1: That, right, I will eat a race winner. No, I 1733 01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:03,880 Speaker 1: wouldn't think of it that way. Last thing before we go, 1734 01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,920 Speaker 1: have you had any of the new uh like impossible 1735 01:11:06,960 --> 01:11:09,599 Speaker 1: foods like the impossible Whopper and stuff like that?

That's 1739 01:11:14,760 --> 01:11:16,040 Speaker 2: that's enough impossible in my life. 1740 01:11:16,160 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 1: Well, on that note again, if this is our last show, showtime. Thanks, 1741 01:11:19,120 --> 01:11:21,680 Speaker 1: it's been fun. We really appreciated all these sexual and 1742 01:11:21,720 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 1: diarrhea innuendo notwithstanding.

Shy about telling the world about it, so in 1748 01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 1: fact I did. 1749 01:11:38,120 --> 01:11:40,320 Speaker 2: We had an episode with Erol Spence and Sean Porter. 1750 01:11:40,400 --> 01:11:42,960 Speaker 2: You know they're gonna unify world titles welterweight titles in 1751 01:11:43,000 --> 01:11:46,040 Speaker 2: September twenty eighth. But this episode got fiery. It was 1752 01:11:46,120 --> 01:11:48,720 Speaker 2: the best one we've done so far. Spence was and 1753 01:11:48,920 --> 01:11:51,559 Speaker 2: people are talking about it because of this. In this format, 1754 01:11:51,680 --> 01:11:53,200 Speaker 2: in this sort of thing, We've seen it before. Max 1755 01:11:53,240 --> 01:11:55,000 Speaker 2: Colorman had a great show back in the day.

Danna White told Breda Kamona that same 1783 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:59,760 Speaker 1: interview aforementioned that Dana, excuse me, that BJ Penn would 1784 01:12:59,800 --> 01:13:01,800 Speaker 1: no longer be fighting in the UFC. Now, he didn't 1785 01:13:01,840 --> 01:13:05,599 Speaker 1: say exactly in the words that the UFC had cut him. 1786 01:13:05,720 --> 01:13:07,760 Speaker 1: He just said he wouldn't get another fight. Uh. He 1787 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:09,720 Speaker 1: has said that since twenty thirteen. It's hard to know 1788 01:13:09,720 --> 01:13:11,519 Speaker 1: if that's real.
