We'll get into all of that. Really 99 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 1: a great UFC fight night from the Apex. So much 100 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: to unpack on all of that. But you know, some 101 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: of our listeners bemoan the fact that a week ago 102 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: during our busy recap show, we did not address this 103 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:18,920 Speaker 1: PFL controversy, and that was not intentional. I actually came 104 00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: on the air and had no idea that it even existed. 105 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: So for those Kenny that don't know about everything that's 106 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 1: going on with the PFL show. From a couple of 107 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 1: weeks ago, there was a fight between teammates house Man 108 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: Fio and Naton Schultz. They're very close. They arrived at 109 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: each other's bracket in the tournament and as such, a 110 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: fight played out that, to my understanding, was more of 111 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: a sparing session than an actual competition, and a controversy 112 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 1: now involving Shane Bergos has reared its ugly head and 113 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: as its lead analyst, I guess you're kind of in 114 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:48,120 Speaker 1: the middle of all of this. 115 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, for sure, and I'd love to thank you for 116 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 6: giving the opportunity to talk about it, you know. Yeah, 117 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 6: So we had two teammates, and not only were they 118 00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 6: two two teammates at American Top Team, these guys are 119 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 6: best friends. They're literally godfathers to each other's kids. 120 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 5: Right. 121 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 6: At one point, when Natan Schultz had won the PFL championship, 122 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 6: he was supporting how shmanfil who was like he I 123 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,200 Speaker 6: forget exactly what he was doing. I think he was 124 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,800 Speaker 6: working at a hospital trying to make ends meet, you know, 125 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 6: really wasn't making any money as a fighter. So these 126 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 6: guys are like brothers basically, right, And a decision was 127 00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 6: made at some point to have these guys fight, and candidly, 128 00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 6: I'm not sure I love that idea of these guys 129 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 6: fighting at that stage of the game. Maybe later for 130 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,960 Speaker 6: a million dollars that would be ideal. And these guys 131 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 6: knew that this was a possibility way back when a 132 00:06:40,279 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 6: couple of years ago, when I first started being becoming 133 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 6: a part of the PFL, there was talk about that, like, hey, 134 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 6: you guys might fight each other. What are you guys 135 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 6: going to do if this happens? And they always said, man, 136 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 6: I hope hopefully it's for the million dollars, YadA, YadA, YadA, 137 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 6: you know, And that was something of course that they 138 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 6: kind of dreaded. Right it happened, they were they were 139 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:02,160 Speaker 6: paired up in this fight, and basically it was it 140 00:07:02,200 --> 00:07:05,839 Speaker 6: really wasn't even a sparring session, Like, it was less 141 00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 6: than a sparring session. It was like if you were 142 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 6: sparring with little gloves and you definitely didn't want to 143 00:07:11,240 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 6: hurt the other guy. That's what was going down. Now 144 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 6: you can understand that these guys are extremely close. The 145 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 6: problem is it's in a professional athletic setting. And I 146 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 6: think that you know, when you have something like an 147 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 6: organization that is trying to put on fights for entertainment purposes, 148 00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 6: the fans want to see an actual fight, and in 149 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 6: their contract, in the PFL contract, they are supposed to 150 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 6: give give it their all. Obviously, there's a lot of 151 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 6: other reasons for that, one of them which is people 152 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:48,040 Speaker 6: gamble on the sport right, People are trying to pick winners, 153 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 6: and if you have some kind of either an agreement 154 00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 6: or fighters that aren't giving potentially one hundred percent, you 155 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 6: could get into some issues. And I understand both sides 156 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,679 Speaker 6: of it. This is not easy. But on the PFL side, 157 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 6: I'm sure they saw the fact that, hey, you didn't 158 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 6: uphold that end of the contract. You're supposed to give it, 159 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 6: you're all, you're supposed to actually go out there and fight. 160 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 6: It was clear to anyone who was watching that fight 161 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:21,400 Speaker 6: that they weren't really fighting, And I think that's where 162 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:22,520 Speaker 6: the problem lies. 163 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 5: Now. 164 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 6: The PFL decided to say, okay, well, Naton Shalt you 165 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 6: ended up beating how shmanfel here, but because you didn't 166 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 6: give it your all, because you didn't uphold your end 167 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 6: of the contract, we're taking you out of the tournament. 168 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 6: You are not going to advance, and we're going to 169 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 6: put in the next guy who had the most amount 170 00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 6: of points after Naton Shalt, which ended up being Shane Burgos. 171 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: Now the prize signing right. 172 00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 6: Exactly, that was big signing right, came over from the UFC. 173 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:56,319 Speaker 6: There was you know, obviously Shane is a star in 174 00:08:56,440 --> 00:09:00,840 Speaker 6: a mixed martial arts world lost to Olivia Marcier in 175 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 6: the first fight of the season, made zero points, ended 176 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 6: up winning his fight against Nishikawa Yamato Nishikawa earning three points. 177 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 6: And you know, people say, well, this was clearly because 178 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 6: they wanted Shane Burgos in the tournament. Well, no, he lost. 179 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,840 Speaker 6: I mean that that's what happened. Then I think that 180 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 6: no matter what, it wasn't like they picked Shane Burgos 181 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 6: out of a hat and go, oh, we're gonna put 182 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 6: Shane Burgers in there. He was the next guy with 183 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 6: the most amount of points, and that's kind of how 184 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,560 Speaker 6: he got into the tournament. It's tough. This is a 185 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,800 Speaker 6: really tough situation for everyone involved. I feel really bad 186 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 6: for Hoyosha Natan that had to fight each other. This 187 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 6: was I'm sure a very difficult decision for the PFL 188 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,040 Speaker 6: as well. But I think at the end of the day, 189 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 6: you know, the fighters knew what they were getting into, 190 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 6: and they kind of were playing with that very fine 191 00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:57,080 Speaker 6: line of competition and and and the legality of their contracts, 192 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 6: and it's it's a crap situation all the way around. 193 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 6: Burgos is in the tournament now, and that's where all 194 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 6: this controversy lied. You know, this was this a big 195 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 6: conspiracy by the PFL to put Shane Burgos in there. No, 196 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 6: I don't believe that's really I think that like these 197 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 6: things kind of happened and if there was someone else 198 00:10:15,280 --> 00:10:17,920 Speaker 6: with more points, that person would have advanced. And I 199 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 6: think that at a certain point the organization needs to 200 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 6: put some kind of or need. They felt they needed 201 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:27,200 Speaker 6: to put some kind of penalty on people who may 202 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 6: do that in the future, because if you don't penalize 203 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 6: someone like that who did that, then other fighters are 204 00:10:33,400 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 6: going to go, well, we did the same thing and 205 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 6: now you're you're you're putting it on us. So there 206 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:41,199 Speaker 6: needs to be some kind of punishment, I think to 207 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:43,680 Speaker 6: let other people know this isn't going to be acceptable. 208 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 6: We can't have this in a professional setting where people 209 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:47,240 Speaker 6: are betting on the sport. 210 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,559 Speaker 1: Yeah, and the PFL and thank you for setting that 211 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 1: up and you did so beautifully. And I have so 212 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,719 Speaker 1: many questions. It's very rare I get to lean into 213 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: an MMA controversy, right because this has nothing to do 214 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,720 Speaker 1: with the UFC. But the PFL did release a statement 215 00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: and articulate it was very clear that Naton and How 216 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: should not meet the contractual standard in that nowt PFL 217 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: immediately suspended both fighters from the season and have deemed 218 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:10,439 Speaker 1: the fight who have zero points for purposes of league standings, 219 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: and as such, Burgos was the next in line. And 220 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 1: I do wonder internally how American Top Team thought about 221 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 1: navigating that. Forgive my ignorance, and I know my guy 222 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 1: Clay Collins in the tournament as well. Was there a 223 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: way to have avoided this matchup? Yeah? 224 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 6: And basically, you know, these fights get get picked, they 225 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,079 Speaker 6: get matched up against each other, and you know, that's 226 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 6: kind of where I'm not sure I would have gone 227 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,839 Speaker 6: with that, you know, matchup. You know, if guys are 228 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 6: going to actually fight, in my opinion, it would have 229 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 6: been probably a better fight for a million dollars than 230 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 6: it would have in the lead up, you know, where 231 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,640 Speaker 6: you're trying to accumulate points during the regular season. I 232 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,280 Speaker 6: don't know that though, and perhaps the PFL in their 233 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,479 Speaker 6: mind they said, well, maybe we want to avoid this situation, 234 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 6: you know that could potentially happen. This happened, and you know, 235 00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 6: there was another terrible fight way back in the day. 236 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 6: I was not a part of the PFL at the time. Lynz, 237 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:10,000 Speaker 6: Philip Lynz, Philippe Linz, who was a you know, I 238 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 6: don't know if he's still in the UFC or not, 239 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 6: but he was a part of the PFL and he 240 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:16,559 Speaker 6: had another matchup with someone that he was teammates with, 241 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 6: and it was it did not look good. It was 242 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 6: one of those where liked, did someone throw a fight 243 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,319 Speaker 6: or someone kind of so again, I think the PFL 244 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 6: wanted to avoid that altogether, but here we are two 245 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:31,720 Speaker 6: teammates getting paired up. I think the biggest thing in 246 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 6: the future. I think that for any organization, especially in 247 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 6: a situation like this where people are trying to advance 248 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 6: into the playoffs, there's a lot of money on the line. 249 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 6: I don't think you should have two fighters from the 250 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 6: same team in the same division. In the PFL, I 251 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,680 Speaker 6: think that's one of those things that you kind of 252 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:50,320 Speaker 6: have to just take out just to avoid any issues 253 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,800 Speaker 6: in the future. And I think they were able to 254 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 6: to you know, I don't know. I just think that 255 00:12:55,800 --> 00:12:58,120 Speaker 6: was something like that. I think that's the easiest way 256 00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 6: to do it. Just don't have two fights in the 257 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 6: same division who are from the same team, let alone, 258 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:05,200 Speaker 6: you know, best friends. 259 00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: Right, and that's the rub best friends godfathers to each 260 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: other's respective children. Right. We had a fight recently in 261 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: the UFC Loik Raja Bob who you know, against Stevan 262 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 1: Ribevic's and one of them was like, yeah, we trained together, 263 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,800 Speaker 1: and the other was like, yeah, we're not really teammates, right. 264 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 1: So there's obviously a huge spectrum when it comes to teammates. 265 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: But in this instance, these guys thick as thieves. There's 266 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,960 Speaker 1: absolutely no reason that they should be competing and at 267 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,360 Speaker 1: John underscore Annik. If you were someone who bet on 268 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:34,560 Speaker 1: this fight on either side, or if you happen to 269 00:13:34,559 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 1: bet over two and a half rounds, right, I so 270 00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 1: wonder about the preamble leading up to this fight, and 271 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 1: if there was any sort of ground swell of communication 272 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: from the MMA handicappers and the sharps who were regularly 273 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:49,040 Speaker 1: betting on this sport. Right, I was so embedded in 274 00:13:49,040 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: that UFC show in Jacksonville that I wasn't even paying attention. 275 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,320 Speaker 1: But I'm curious if if Naton was indeed favored. And 276 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:59,440 Speaker 1: when you do talk about that light at the end 277 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: of the tunnel, right, that pot of gold at the 278 00:14:01,559 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: end of the rainbow, the million dollars at the end 279 00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 1: of the tournament, I think this gets particularly sticky when 280 00:14:06,640 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 1: it comes to this being a round en route to 281 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: the seven figure payday. I'm not sure if there was 282 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,640 Speaker 1: a gentleman's agreement between the two athletes, that between the 283 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,120 Speaker 1: two athletes as to one guy was gonna win, Like, 284 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: did they have a plan as to which guy was 285 00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:20,840 Speaker 1: actually gonna win? 286 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 6: Right, Well, that's what we don't know. That's what we 287 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 6: don't know. And the way that they fought is suspicious 288 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 6: of potentially going that way. And I think that's where 289 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,680 Speaker 6: the PFL needed to step in. This isn't some you know, 290 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 6: big thing to try to get Shane Burgers to advance. 291 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 6: If they went out there and fought and it was fine, 292 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 6: the ton shalt would have advanced like the Ton Schalt 293 00:14:40,480 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 6: is a two time PFL world champion. You know, they 294 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 6: would have been perfectly fine with having the Ton Shalt advance. 295 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 6: The big issue is with the way that they competed. 296 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 6: You know, I saw some of the things that Luke 297 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 6: Thomas put out there, some of the things that Luke 298 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 6: Thomas put out there and some other people. You know 299 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 6: this It isn't going like that. It isn't like, oh, 300 00:14:57,680 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 6: we're going to remove this guy because we want this 301 00:14:59,520 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 6: guy to I don't know. I don't think it makes 302 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,000 Speaker 6: a huge difference with Shane Burgos in there or not 303 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 6: from a ratings perspective or of trying to get him 304 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 6: to be a world champion. That division is stacked, like 305 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 6: there's some really tough guys. He already lost to Olivier 306 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 6: obeam Mercier. So anyways, I think the big the big issue. 307 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:19,280 Speaker 6: Also the other thing we have to put into context. 308 00:15:19,640 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 6: Imagine being on the other side of the bracket and 309 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 6: having an absolute war and maybe having injuries and going 310 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 6: these guys didn't even take a heavy leg kick, they 311 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 6: didn't take any shots to the head, and I have 312 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 6: to advance with my injuries and bruises and these guys, 313 00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 6: you know, Natan Schultz gonna advance, and he didn't take 314 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 6: any big shots, you know, and so I I could 315 00:15:40,440 --> 00:15:43,400 Speaker 6: see the other fighters perspective who are competing in this 316 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,480 Speaker 6: tournament to say, hey, that's not fair. So again, you know, 317 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 6: people need to look at the big picture. Like so 318 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 6: many things, things are nuanced, and you know, for a 319 00:15:53,120 --> 00:15:55,720 Speaker 6: guy like Luke Thomas, who I definitely respect, smart guy, 320 00:15:55,800 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 6: you know, been around the sport for a long time 321 00:15:57,680 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 6: to just pick on that angle and go, this is 322 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 6: the reason this is the situation and I'm not seeing 323 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,560 Speaker 6: it from all the perspective, like, no, give the whole thing. 324 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 6: You have to look at the big picture and not 325 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 6: just look at this and go, oh, well, this was 326 00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 6: clearly you know, the organization trying to put a guy 327 00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 6: at the forefront. So anyways, yeah, I think a lot 328 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,560 Speaker 6: of Luke's message was that this wasn't fight or first 329 00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:20,680 Speaker 6: of the PFL, and I'm not sure that that is 330 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 6: wholly true. So at some point during the broadcast, You're 331 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 6: saying like, these aren't even real punches. I just have 332 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 6: to ask you for my own personal curiosity, and it's 333 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,040 Speaker 6: my birthday, so I'm going to ask, right, how hard 334 00:16:32,120 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 6: is it to commentat a fight, like at one point 335 00:16:34,360 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 6: you're realizing maybe what's going on acutely and you're having 336 00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,720 Speaker 6: to call this fight Like that's an interesting navigation. I 337 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 6: would think it was very difficult. John. You know, you're 338 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 6: seeing these guys, they're go out there and competing and 339 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:50,479 Speaker 6: you're like, okay, a are they making it a grappling 340 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 6: fight or is he just trying to be nice? Is 341 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 6: he is he doing enough to get a certain reaction 342 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 6: out of howshman Field without hurting him? And you know 343 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 6: you're seeing the kind of responses and strikes like how 344 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 6: Ish at one point would throw a strike a little 345 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,240 Speaker 6: bit harder than Naton Shalt, Like Naton Schalt was clearly 346 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 6: holding back. He was being a very nice guy. He 347 00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,400 Speaker 6: was being a true gentleman to his best friend there, 348 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 6: and hows was being nice too, Like Iush didn't hit 349 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:22,400 Speaker 6: very hard, but he really wasn't trying to knock out 350 00:17:22,480 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 6: or hurt Naton Shalt. He was trying to get a 351 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 6: reaction and trying to get out of these very difficult 352 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 6: grappling situations or positions. But they weren't really going at it. 353 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 6: Again for us, we were all just kind of very 354 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 6: confused and waiting for something to happen, like is the 355 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 6: action going to kick up at a certain point or 356 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:43,720 Speaker 6: you know. So it was just very confusing and it 357 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 6: was difficult to manage. But I think we tried to 358 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 6: do our best to be as honest as possible, and 359 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,920 Speaker 6: by us, I mean myself, Sean O'Connell and Randy co tour. 360 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 6: So it was it was tough. It was tough because 361 00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:59,200 Speaker 6: you do want to let the fans know that you're 362 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 6: seeing the same thing that they are, and you're as 363 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:02,560 Speaker 6: confused as they are. 364 00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 1: See Randy Cotur celebrated his sixtieth birthday recently. 365 00:18:06,400 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 6: Bad Dude sixty. The Deman's a legend. He doesn't age. 366 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 1: He does not age. All you PFL commentators, with the 367 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: exception of that play by play guy, look like you're 368 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,280 Speaker 1: eighthing this. I'm just kidding, John, Oh see, I love you, buddy, 369 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 1: Just kidding, Shawnie. All right, let us get into UFC 370 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 1: Fight Night, Strickland versus Mago Medov if we could so. 371 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: Sean Strickland by TKO at four twenty of round two. 372 00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: Thankfully that I poke in round one did not become 373 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:36,399 Speaker 1: the note on which this main event ended, and a 374 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,360 Speaker 1: lot of people are calling this Shan Strickland's best performance. 375 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: I do love the way he works defensively and offensively 376 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: off of that jab, and comfortable in a fight doesn't 377 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 1: even begin to describe it. I mean, the ufc Apex 378 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,880 Speaker 1: obviously is Sean Strickland's home. He's competed in a lot 379 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,160 Speaker 1: of big fights there. I do look forward to him 380 00:18:54,160 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 1: competing in front of fans who can really enjoy everything 381 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: that he brings to the table. But before we get 382 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 1: in the whole body of work and how promotionally this 383 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,439 Speaker 1: man has stepped up. This was a guy at a 384 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 1: boom Mago Meta who a lot of people were putting 385 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: out a pedestal finisher, got this main event. And I'm 386 00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,639 Speaker 1: not sure if this is a case of levels to 387 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 1: this game, but Sean Strickland holding serve as a near 388 00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:17,080 Speaker 1: two to one favorite and at the very least preserving 389 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: him his spot there in that middleway top seven. 390 00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, there's a lot to talk about. Even though it 391 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 6: was a short fight, I think that, you know, the 392 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 6: ipoke was unfortunate and it was a bad one. It 393 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:31,159 Speaker 6: could have been very, very bad. I'm glad that Sean 394 00:19:31,320 --> 00:19:33,479 Speaker 6: was able to tough it out and compete. If there 395 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 6: was one guy who was going to be able to 396 00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 6: do it, it was Sean Strickland, just as tough as nails. 397 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:42,000 Speaker 6: I do think that, you know, he was struggling with 398 00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 6: the overall kicking game of Mago Metof. Mauga Meta was 399 00:19:45,720 --> 00:19:48,719 Speaker 6: doing a great job of attacking the body, attacking the legs, 400 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 6: keeping him at bay, and Sean was kind of waiting 401 00:19:52,119 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 6: for that those long range attacks to subside. And also 402 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:58,800 Speaker 6: I think he was still feeling the effects of that 403 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 6: eye gouge at the end round one. But to me, 404 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 6: this was a lack of discipline, a lack of patience 405 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:11,480 Speaker 6: and composure by Maga Metov that allowed an absolute assassin 406 00:20:11,600 --> 00:20:14,879 Speaker 6: and killer in Sean Strickland to get in and take 407 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,680 Speaker 6: that take that purse like he was allowed. He allowed 408 00:20:18,760 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 6: him to get back into the game. Why because he 409 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:25,919 Speaker 6: did not pace himself. Maga Metof was so fixated on 410 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:28,640 Speaker 6: trying to get that finish. Why because he was actually 411 00:20:28,720 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 6: successful against Sean Strickland. But he forgot that Strickland does 412 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 6: not go away easily. He's like herpes. He will come 413 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 6: back and reveal himself over and over again. And Strickland 414 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 6: just you know, went into juggernaut mode, started chasing him 415 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 6: down and in class in classic Sean Strickland fashion. In 416 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:54,119 Speaker 6: round two just took over. He was much more defensively sound. 417 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:56,959 Speaker 6: I think Maga Metov stopped throwing kicks because they were 418 00:20:57,080 --> 00:21:00,479 Speaker 6: very energy intensive, or it seemed that way anyway. And 419 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:04,719 Speaker 6: once Sean Strickland found that Maga Metov was losing that steam, 420 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 6: he took over and just overwhelmed him with pace. Pressure, 421 00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,159 Speaker 6: took over that space in front of Maga Metov, and 422 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 6: Maga Metov mentally, physically, spiritually could not handle Sean Strickland 423 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 6: in front of him with all that pacing. And I 424 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 6: thought this was a great performance from Strickland to show 425 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:30,199 Speaker 6: how durable he is. We knew that, and also his 426 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 6: ability to adjust in a fight. 427 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,840 Speaker 1: I thought was impressive, Almost as impressive as the way 428 00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:36,719 Speaker 1: you sort of laid that out. I really don't have 429 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 1: much more in my notes, nor much to add, but 430 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: Mago Menov just gas right like. The reason why I 431 00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 1: stopped short of suggesting this was Sean Strickland's best performance 432 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,280 Speaker 1: is because with respect to a boost Mango Metov, it 433 00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:52,439 Speaker 1: looked like me at the Gettysburg College tough man competition, right, 434 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: it's hard for me to remember a main event athlete 435 00:21:55,880 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: to non heavyweight Kenny noticeably visibly looking so amateurish in 436 00:22:01,880 --> 00:22:04,080 Speaker 1: terms of the gas tank. And you're right, he realized 437 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,280 Speaker 1: a lot of success in round one, and perhaps his 438 00:22:07,320 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 1: approach was just seven minutes hard, I'm gonna finish him, 439 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: or I'm gonna get finished. But those visuals were particularly bad. 440 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: I thought in round two, like just even before he 441 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:20,320 Speaker 1: ultimately gave up, and perhaps I shouldn't put it so strongly. 442 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,439 Speaker 1: I don't know if he quit, but it looked to 443 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 1: me like not good body language at all, and even 444 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 1: before he kind of gave up, like it was just 445 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: so wild and undisciplined. I don't know, man Like, I 446 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 1: think Sean Strickland has earned a title fight, But the 447 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: only thing that gives me pause was just that the 448 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: B side in this the blue corner, only showed up 449 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 1: for seven minutes. 450 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,560 Speaker 6: I couldn't agree more. And I think that this is 451 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,879 Speaker 6: when I'm looking at this fight. I go skill wise, 452 00:22:48,119 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 6: maca medoff is a problem. Could he could potentially beat 453 00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:55,880 Speaker 6: Strickland because he's highly skilled. The problem is he's highly 454 00:22:55,960 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 6: inexperienced as far as UFC experience. He's out in Germany 455 00:23:01,160 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 6: training no offense Germany, but your mixed martial arts experience, gyms, 456 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:10,160 Speaker 6: all that stuff isn't at the quality of let's say Brazil, 457 00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 6: United States, right, And I think that not having that 458 00:23:16,160 --> 00:23:19,760 Speaker 6: high level fight experience, not fighting under the bright lights 459 00:23:19,760 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 6: of the UFC, it absolutely matters, And it doesn't matter 460 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 6: what you do at a period of around. It doesn't 461 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 6: matter what you do in around. You have to be 462 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:33,640 Speaker 6: able to sustain that at a high level for three 463 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 6: rounds or five rounds if you want to be of 464 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,960 Speaker 6: an elite UFC caliber. And he showed that he didn't 465 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 6: have that ability to pace himself or understand that he 466 00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 6: has Sean Strickland in front of him. This isn't just 467 00:23:47,359 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 6: some other dude out of Europe. This is a guy 468 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:52,399 Speaker 6: who knows how to stick around and he's going to 469 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,840 Speaker 6: come back and bite you in the ass if you 470 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 6: allow him to. So he just didn't manage his energy, 471 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:02,040 Speaker 6: his work grate got a little too excited there and. 472 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:04,440 Speaker 1: It failed him. 473 00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 6: So hopefully he's able to learn from this because he 474 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 6: is a very highly skilled fighter, just needs to know 475 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,560 Speaker 6: how to put together and get the conditioning and composure 476 00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,160 Speaker 6: to be able to fight and beat guys like Sean 477 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:17,520 Speaker 6: Strickland long term. 478 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,159 Speaker 1: So I know you were expectant that I was going 479 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,879 Speaker 1: to ask you today if Sean Strickland, on the strength 480 00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: of this win and everything else, has done enough to 481 00:24:24,840 --> 00:24:28,160 Speaker 1: earn a championship opportunity. I believe that I can convince 482 00:24:28,200 --> 00:24:31,760 Speaker 1: you right now that Sean Strickland should get a title fight, 483 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,959 Speaker 1: even if you expected to give a different answer when 484 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: you showed up today to do the Anakin Florin podcast. Now, 485 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,960 Speaker 1: with respect to the future Hall of Famer Robert Whittaker, 486 00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:42,879 Speaker 1: who is fighting Drake is duplus c in about five days, 487 00:24:43,480 --> 00:24:47,000 Speaker 1: the thought that that fight would either be quick or 488 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,840 Speaker 1: not violent enough for one of those two gentlemen, either 489 00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: Whittaker or duplus c to fight Israelata Sonia in eight 490 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 1: or nine weeks, second week in September in Sydney, Australia 491 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,360 Speaker 1: sounds very ambitious to me. But let us historic look 492 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 1: back at Sean Strickland, right he had that long winning 493 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 1: streak that included a win over Brendan Allen, vaults to 494 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 1: number four in the world, and you know what, Yeah, 495 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 1: I'll fight the unranked Alex Padata UFC two seventy six, 496 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 1: when out of Signia fights Jared Knnoneer. Sure, because Sean 497 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:18,440 Speaker 1: Strickland will fight anybody, you know. So he gets put 498 00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 1: to sleep by Alex Padata and then he comes back 499 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: and loses a split decision to Jared Knnoneer in a 500 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,320 Speaker 1: close fight, and now, all of a sudden, Sean Strickland 501 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 1: six fight winning streak is a two fight losing streak. 502 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 1: Right then he steps up during fight week into a 503 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: main event against Nos Sordini Mob Bob in January, wins 504 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 1: that and now wins another main event against a boost 505 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,880 Speaker 1: Mago Metal. To me, that makes Sean Strickland undeniable. Not 506 00:25:40,920 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 1: only has he stepped up for the promotion, but he 507 00:25:45,200 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: can sell a fight meritocracy. I certainly think he checks 508 00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 1: a lot of boxes. The only knock against and it's 509 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:54,439 Speaker 1: been echoed by Luke Thomas and other people, is that 510 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:56,080 Speaker 1: if Sean Strickland thought he is for a lot of 511 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,200 Speaker 1: sign a hundred times, you know. Maybe Strickland wins a few, 512 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: but for the most part, people feel like they know 513 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:06,000 Speaker 1: how that matchup is going to go, and perhaps I 514 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 1: get more excited about other matchups in terms of competition, 515 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,159 Speaker 1: or maybe the betting line would be a little bit tighter, 516 00:26:11,520 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 1: But for me, ken flow with respect to Drake is 517 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: dupless and everybody else. I don't know how you deny 518 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 1: Sean Strickland when you couple the body of work with 519 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: him stepping up and a stoppage win the main event 520 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:24,320 Speaker 1: this weekend. 521 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 6: Your thoughts, Yeah, I agree, listen. I think that the 522 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 6: UFC and the middleweight division in general are in a 523 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,800 Speaker 6: bit of a bind in that they need competition for 524 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 6: Israel out of Sonya, who is one of the best 525 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 6: fighters to ever compete inside the UFC's octagon. That's the issue, 526 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 6: And I think that from a skill perspective, if I'm 527 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,640 Speaker 6: being honest, I don't think Strickland has a whole lot 528 00:26:49,680 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 6: to offer. Someone like Adasanya out of Sonya is an 529 00:26:53,640 --> 00:26:58,040 Speaker 6: absolute menace. He is so skilled and so good and 530 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 6: so long for that division that it's going to be 531 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 6: difficult for anybody to go out there and give him 532 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,080 Speaker 6: a good run. I think Cannon e Or from a 533 00:27:06,240 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 6: skills perspective, is a better matchup now he has more 534 00:27:10,440 --> 00:27:14,880 Speaker 6: work to do, and so basically for me, it's between 535 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 6: Dricus Duplass and Sean Strickland. Now, if Dricis goes out 536 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 6: there and beats Whittaker. I think that would be extremely impressive. 537 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 6: No one just goes out there and beats Robert Whittaker. However, 538 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:33,520 Speaker 6: I think Strickland, name wise, style wise, I think it's 539 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 6: a better fight for the UFC to put on between 540 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:41,800 Speaker 6: Sean Strickland and Israel Asnia. So I think that for Dricks, 541 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:45,440 Speaker 6: I think he's a tough dude, he's a grinder. He's 542 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:48,960 Speaker 6: gonna get Israel's face. I like that that that would 543 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,199 Speaker 6: be be the case. But from a skills perspective, I 544 00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,879 Speaker 6: don't think he has much for Israel Asnya there either. 545 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 6: So I think it would be a much better, much 546 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 6: more entertaining fight for Sean Strickland. And he really he's 547 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 6: the only guy left at this stage of the game 548 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:09,879 Speaker 6: because of Israel Desanya's you know, level of competition and 549 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,520 Speaker 6: what he's done in that division. I think that's that's 550 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 6: really the only play at this stage of the game. 551 00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 6: Driccas would have to go out there and absolutely dominate 552 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,159 Speaker 6: Robert Whitaker bell to bell and go out there and 553 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,880 Speaker 6: get a finish for him to change my mind, Yeah, 554 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 6: you know, not that I'm making fight. 555 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:28,960 Speaker 1: To the UFC right No, I like how you set 556 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:31,160 Speaker 1: that up. I don't know if we've seen Sean Strickland 557 00:28:31,160 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 1: fight Marvin Vitty, my memory escapes me a little bit. 558 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,679 Speaker 1: I think that matchup piques my interest, but right now, obviously, 559 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:39,520 Speaker 1: but Toy is coming off a loss, so that fight 560 00:28:39,560 --> 00:28:41,640 Speaker 1: doesn't make sense right now. I do think a main 561 00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:43,479 Speaker 1: event or a three round co main event on pay 562 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: per view between Jared Cannoneer and Brendan Allen, as called 563 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: for by Brendan Allen, makes a shit ton of sense 564 00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 1: right now. If Cannon is going to earn a second 565 00:28:51,680 --> 00:28:53,640 Speaker 1: championship opportunity, I think he's got to beat a guy 566 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:56,760 Speaker 1: like Brendan Allen. And I think, with respect to Dracs 567 00:28:56,840 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 1: Dupless and Sean Strickland, Brendon Allen is intriguing because of 568 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 1: the danger factor in myriad areas of mixed martial arts. 569 00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: I do believe if Brendan Allen and Israel lot of 570 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 1: SNI engage in a ground fight, caution flammable for the 571 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: champion is he But I don't think that the promotion 572 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: sees Brendan Allen as a number one contender type, at 573 00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 1: least right now. And lastly, I'll say plenty more on 574 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,480 Speaker 1: Robert Whittaker and Dracus Duplessi later in the week. But 575 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: Robert Whittaker only losses in the last nine and a 576 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 1: half years to Israelat of Sonia. Right, Stephen Wanner Boy 577 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 1: Thompson got him in twenty fourteen, and he has not 578 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 1: lost to anyone. But is he since? All right, star 579 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,120 Speaker 1: of the show's been in the waiting room for three minutes. 580 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: He's probably ready to kill me. Let's get to the 581 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:38,200 Speaker 1: Ray Long Minute. 582 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 2: He's now time for the Ray Long Minutes. 583 00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 6: A holes. 584 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 2: The Ray Long Minute.

Sean Strickland has not 613 00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:06,040 Speaker 1: had that opportunity. And when you look at the varying 614 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,360 Speaker 1: spots in which he stepped up for the UFC, either 615 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: willingly putting his number four ranking online against Alex Paneta 616 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 1: or the short notice week of main event against Nas Sordini, 617 00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 1: Mava like, if you're looking for someone to fight Izzy 618 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: on September eighth, you know, maybe is he's minus seven hundred, 619 00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: But Strickland checks a lot of boxes and he's certainly 620 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 1: deserving to me. 621 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, look, I think he fits the definition of a 622 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 7: company man, like you said, and you know, even before 623 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 7: we get started, man, that's off to Strickland because it's 624 00:31:35,880 --> 00:31:38,080 Speaker 7: tough enough to wake up on the morning of a 625 00:31:38,120 --> 00:31:41,000 Speaker 7: fight just feel great and want to you know, everything's 626 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,280 Speaker 7: going good, but ten seconds in you get your ipope.

They gave it to an guy, 667 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 1: some seven kid, former LFA I think out of New Jersey, 668 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: maybe high school wrestler. 669 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:36,600 Speaker 7: But oh, he looked. He's throwed his name into every 670 00:33:36,600 --> 00:33:39,040 Speaker 7: one of those.

But yeah, 715 00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:43,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I just think that's a huge ask, right 716 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: to beat with it and then to turn around and 717 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: beat Izzy nine weeks later. 718 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:52,879 Speaker 5: More than the you that's more than the ask, all right. 719 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:54,359 Speaker 1: So a few things I would like to get into. 720 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: Ray And I don't know how much you watched of 721 00:35:56,200 --> 00:36:00,040 Speaker 1: this UFC fight night, but uh, Grant Dawson has he 722 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:02,440 Speaker 1: definitely taken his game to the next level since I 723 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 1: loved this Grant Dawson package. Twelve minutes of control time 724 00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:08,919 Speaker 1: and this is demir Is magoulav that he was able 725 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:10,959 Speaker 1: to do this too. So your thoughts on on Grant 726 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,640 Speaker 1: Dawson shining in the co main event Raymond, Yeah. 727 00:36:13,560 --> 00:36:18,560 Speaker 7: Look looked absolutely fantastic. I mean, if there's anything I'm thinking, 728 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 7: I mean, I'd like to see one more high level fight. 729 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:23,840 Speaker 7: I mean, this is a guy that wanted to retire, 730 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:26,799 Speaker 7: or I think he did retire. He's probably been thinking 731 00:36:26,840 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 7: about retirement, so I don't know if that plays into it, 732 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:34,000 Speaker 7: but one hundred percent a very technical, good striker, and 733 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:36,399 Speaker 7: Grant Dawson made it look easy, and I think that's 734 00:36:36,800 --> 00:36:39,560 Speaker 7: one hundred percent the first step and get to where 735 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:42,520 Speaker 7: he wants to go. So he looked great. I love 736 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 7: the control time he did it. You know, he did 737 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,759 Speaker 7: what he had to do, and I think he did 738 00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:52,600 Speaker 7: it looking really, really well so against a great, great talent, 739 00:36:52,719 --> 00:36:56,160 Speaker 7: So I'm excited to see where he's going for sure. 740 00:36:56,520 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, Kenny, what are your thoughts at Grant Dawson, not 741 00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,880 Speaker 1: just set Odd, Grant Dawson, not just Saturday Night, But uh, 742 00:37:02,360 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: I would think he'd be problematic for a lot of 743 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:05,919 Speaker 1: these guys in that top ten and fifty five. 744 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,759 Speaker 6: You're asking the dummy who picked his macgooloff over here. Yeah, 745 00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:14,040 Speaker 6: man Is mcgouloff didn't do a tip thing in that fight. 746 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,520 Speaker 6: I mean, like he was absolutely dominating when he was retired. 747 00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 6: He had retired exactly retire, he retired. 748 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,600 Speaker 7: Before the fight, Teddy. That's the problem even if you 749 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 7: picked him, and I think that's not a bad thing. 750 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 7: It's just that you don't know the mindset of these guys, 751 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,839 Speaker 7: and if you think about it, you just somebody knew 752 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 7: what was going on, you know what I mean, they knew. 753 00:37:34,760 --> 00:37:36,960 Speaker 5: If he was in the camp the right way. He wasn't. 754 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:39,520 Speaker 7: But it didn't look good. And you know, but I 755 00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 7: don't want to take away from Grant Dawson either, because 756 00:37:41,640 --> 00:37:44,839 Speaker 7: the guy we've seen is mcgoulof go do really well. 757 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,880 Speaker 7: So like again, hats off to them, I'm sorry for 758 00:37:47,920 --> 00:37:50,640 Speaker 7: interrupt him out. Thank you, thank. 759 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 6: You for helping me feel a little better about my 760 00:37:52,640 --> 00:37:55,800 Speaker 6: stupid pick. But you know, Grant, Grant Dawson, you know, 761 00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:59,319 Speaker 6: I think mindset or not though, Grant Dawson just had 762 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 6: a style that was just something to contend with. Demir 763 00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:05,800 Speaker 6: never had an answer for the takedowns, He didn't have 764 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 6: an answer for the back game. He just didn't know 765 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:12,799 Speaker 6: what to do on the ground. Dawson just absolutely overwhelmed him. 766 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:16,800 Speaker 6: I thought that Dawson looked like a completely different fighter 767 00:38:16,920 --> 00:38:20,000 Speaker 6: in that he's way more efficient with this wrestling. He 768 00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:23,560 Speaker 6: knows how to utilize his striking, get in, get out. 769 00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:26,000 Speaker 6: When he's in, he's all the way in. He's put 770 00:38:26,120 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 6: you on your back, He's controlling you immediately, all the 771 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:32,400 Speaker 6: little things. You know, we talked about the fundamentals of iliotopuria, 772 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 6: Well we got to talk about the fundamentals of his 773 00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 6: grappling game because he was doing all the little things 774 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,840 Speaker 6: right and how you finish a takedown, how you control, 775 00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 6: and how you advance your position and never let that 776 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:45,960 Speaker 6: dude really out of there. I thought it was a 777 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 6: extremely solid performance from Grant Dawson, who was looking better 778 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 6: all the time. Those are the skills that he needed. 779 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,160 Speaker 6: When I look at Grant Dawson from a couple of 780 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 6: years ago to where he is now, he's filling in 781 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 6: those gaps. Still needs some work with his striking, right, 782 00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 6: If he can't did that takedown, he needs to get 783 00:39:01,760 --> 00:39:03,279 Speaker 6: that up to a higher level. But as far as 784 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 6: how he's maximizing his strength as a fighter, I thought 785 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 6: that was really well executed the other night. 786 00:39:09,880 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 7: Yeah, and fight IQ wise very very smart. So and 787 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 7: it looks like he's in a great spot the way 788 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 7: he spoke, and he's you know, sometimes you just need 789 00:39:18,520 --> 00:39:22,439 Speaker 7: the right fit, you know, and you get the right attention. Look, 790 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 7: a little attention goes a long way to a fighter, 791 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:28,640 Speaker 7: right Kenny. If you're doing it by yourself and then 792 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 7: you're every so often somebody looks at you. But if 793 00:39:31,200 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 7: somebody's on your rest every day and you're communicating, that's 794 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 7: a huge, huge thing, huge. 795 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 5: You know. 796 00:39:37,920 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 7: People people just want to feel like they there's people 797 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,280 Speaker 7: behind their back, you know what I mean, that people 798 00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,919 Speaker 7: have their back and they're they're with them the whole 799 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:46,680 Speaker 7: step of the journey. 800 00:39:46,719 --> 00:39:48,600 Speaker 5: So it looks like he's got that now, and that's 801 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 5: why I'm excited for yeah, And. 802 00:39:50,320 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 6: No matter who we are, how much we love martial arts, 803 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 6: we all have blind spots. We can't see at all, 804 00:39:55,600 --> 00:39:57,640 Speaker 6: and we need other people to come in and tell us, Hey, 805 00:39:57,840 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 6: you need to be doing this, you need be doing that. 806 00:39:59,280 --> 00:40:01,879 Speaker 6: You're making a mistake here, make us. There's so much 807 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 6: too mixed martial arts. If you don't have good people 808 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 6: around you who really want to see you get better, 809 00:40:06,360 --> 00:40:08,759 Speaker 6: and if you're not honest about yourself and how you 810 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,520 Speaker 6: want to get better, you're in big trouble. 811 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 5: This sport's way too difficult, way too difficult. 812 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,520 Speaker 1: I just love the way Grant Dawson handled everything, just 813 00:40:16,640 --> 00:40:19,560 Speaker 1: watching from afar, the media before the fight, the post 814 00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 1: fight interview afterwards. I'm a sucker for when they put 815 00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,040 Speaker 1: over the coaches like that. And you know when he said, like, 816 00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:27,440 Speaker 1: I'm not a good fighter, right, I'm just a good soldier. 817 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 1: He had me eating right out of his hands, all right. 818 00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:32,760 Speaker 1: So when I look at the lightweight top fifteen, Raymond, 819 00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:34,680 Speaker 1: you got your guy there, Matt de seam Roller for 820 00:40:34,760 --> 00:40:36,719 Speaker 1: bowl at number fourteen. By the way, it looks like 821 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,400 Speaker 1: Forrabola is going to be on our live show that 822 00:40:38,480 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: we do we're doing a live show this Friday from UFCX, 823 00:40:42,239 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 1: but you're not going to be in Vegas. Looks like 824 00:40:43,719 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: you might be there the week later. 825 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:46,760 Speaker 5: I am there the weekend. 826 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 1: That's right, we're not and that's a trip that maybe 827 00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:52,759 Speaker 1: you weren't expecting to make. Is that fair to say 828 00:40:52,880 --> 00:40:55,160 Speaker 1: which one the one to ask live fifteenth? Or did 829 00:40:55,200 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: you always have somebody on that show? 830 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:57,200 Speaker 5: No? 831 00:40:57,280 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 7: I always said somebody else the show ziems cop. He's 832 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,319 Speaker 7: looking great, very excited for him. But we could talk 833 00:41:03,360 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 7: about that later. But okay, no, no, we've always been there. 834 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:11,759 Speaker 1: Okay, So Mattau's Gamrox seven, armand Surgian eight Halfeel Dosanjos 835 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,919 Speaker 1: is still there, Jalen Turner ten, Dan Hooker eleven. Those 836 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,720 Speaker 1: two guys are fighting this weekend. Hanato mo Kano thirteen 837 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:22,800 Speaker 1: for Vola fourteen, Michael Chandler five. We'll see, right. It 838 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:26,080 Speaker 1: is hard to get just ask armand Surgian. It is 839 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: hard to get a fighter ranked above you at one 840 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty five pounds to sign on the dotted line. 841 00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:33,400 Speaker 1: Got big names everywhere in there, but Grant Dawson's getting 842 00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 1: one of those names. There's no doubt about. 843 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:39,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, where's where's Grant Dawson right number fifteen, so he's 844 00:41:39,040 --> 00:41:43,239 Speaker 7: right behind for Vola Yep, yep. Yeah, that's a good 845 00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:43,799 Speaker 7: fighting too. 846 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 1: But then one of the names that Grant Dawson mentioned 847 00:41:46,520 --> 00:41:48,480 Speaker 1: was Benil dar Yus. I think that makes a ton 848 00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: of sense, even though one's off a win and one's 849 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: off a loss. All Right, a few other things I'd 850 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:54,440 Speaker 1: like to get into on UFC Fight Net, and then 851 00:41:54,440 --> 00:41:56,120 Speaker 1: I would like to ask you if I could about 852 00:41:56,480 --> 00:42:00,440 Speaker 1: Henry Shudo's unceremonious withdrawal from the Cheetoh Verify in Boston. 853 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:03,320 Speaker 1: Let's just get into that right now, because you know, 854 00:42:03,480 --> 00:42:06,879 Speaker 1: al Jo called him a dirty little weasel, and I'm 855 00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,000 Speaker 1: not even sure that that's overly strong, just based upon 856 00:42:10,239 --> 00:42:13,200 Speaker 1: some of the things that Henry has done to inject 857 00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:18,520 Speaker 1: himself into these conversations. Right, goes through a five round 858 00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:21,760 Speaker 1: championship fight, and I have to be careful, right based 859 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:25,000 Speaker 1: upon my job, But he goes through that twenty five 860 00:42:25,080 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: minute fight with al Joe in May, and then al 861 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:31,520 Speaker 1: Joe essentially gets bullied into turning around quickly to defend 862 00:42:31,640 --> 00:42:34,560 Speaker 1: his title. For lack of a better verb, right, strong 863 00:42:34,719 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: armed If you like that, right, and then Shudo starts saying, Hey, 864 00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:40,320 Speaker 1: if al Jo can't make the walk, I'll fight O'Malley 865 00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:41,480 Speaker 1: for an interim or whatever. 866 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 5: You know. 867 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,719 Speaker 1: Then he accepts this Cheeto fight, and it was hard 868 00:42:44,760 --> 00:42:46,720 Speaker 1: for me to wrap my head around him actually fighting 869 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:50,319 Speaker 1: Cheeto on August nineteenth, and before we can even send 870 00:42:50,360 --> 00:42:52,279 Speaker 1: the fight card to the masses, he pulls out of 871 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 1: the fight. So, if I'm the undisputed champion al Jamaine Sterling, 872 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:58,760 Speaker 1: I'm grabbing a microphone and I'm hot. And that's exactly 873 00:42:58,840 --> 00:43:00,480 Speaker 1: what the result was from your guy. So what are 874 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 1: your thoughts on Sahudo accepting the fight with Cheeto Vera 875 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: and pulling out essentially ninety hours later. 876 00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:11,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, it's just more nonsense. M It made nonsense. I 877 00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:13,480 Speaker 5: don't know like it. 878 00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 7: You know, if you think of Aljo's position, you know, 879 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,080 Speaker 7: Daney got up there and said, you know, I got 880 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:19,000 Speaker 7: a cool Guess who called? 881 00:43:19,080 --> 00:43:23,240 Speaker 5: Guess who called Henry? Henry called. 882 00:43:23,320 --> 00:43:25,319 Speaker 7: He said, you know, if that pussy doesn't want to fight, 883 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 7: I'll take this. This is a whole fucking bullshit I 884 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 7: could do without. I'll be honest with you, John, It's 885 00:43:30,160 --> 00:43:35,760 Speaker 7: just it's stupid. Uh, it's almost like second grade name calling, 886 00:43:36,000 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 7: childish shit. Henry fuck, fuck Henry, you know what I mean. Like, 887 00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,520 Speaker 7: that's why Aljo's man, because he has to sit there 888 00:43:42,520 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 7: and listen to this. Al Jo can't get out of 889 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 7: his own way. No, Henry can't get out of his 890 00:43:46,320 --> 00:43:49,120 Speaker 7: own way. Let's grab the mic, ands and and and 891 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,920 Speaker 7: put him on blast, you know, so what anybody could say, 892 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,880 Speaker 7: you know, I'll fight him, I'll do this, I'll do that. 893 00:43:55,520 --> 00:43:57,800 Speaker 7: You got to actually do it though, that's the problem. 894 00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 7: So I feel I feel for al Jo and I 895 00:44:00,719 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 7: back them one on everything he's saying, because it's if 896 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:10,479 Speaker 7: that never happened with you know, with the Dana saying 897 00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:12,360 Speaker 7: Algiel kint get out of his own way and Henry 898 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,799 Speaker 7: cold and you know, I don't know, did uh Hunter 899 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 7: Campbell run over to Dani's house this time and say 900 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 7: you're not going to believe this. Henry Shudo's out of 901 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:24,759 Speaker 7: the fight. I don't know, man, It's just they got 902 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 7: to stop being with this ship, you know, and Henry Henry, Look, 903 00:44:29,440 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 7: if that never happened, Aljoe's never saying that that. 904 00:44:31,960 --> 00:44:32,760 Speaker 5: That's my belief. 905 00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 7: And you know, in injuries and injury and you gotta 906 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,080 Speaker 7: respect that, but I don't think he was ever fight 907 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:38,320 Speaker 7: if you want to know the truth. 908 00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:42,239 Speaker 1: Yeah, Kenny, I didn't intend to have some long form 909 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,400 Speaker 1: conversation on it, but I don't know, man. The champion 910 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:49,200 Speaker 1: by and large has done everything the right way, and 911 00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. Just some of the stuff coming out 912 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,520 Speaker 1: of that Tudo camp I think leaves a little bit 913 00:44:54,560 --> 00:44:58,080 Speaker 1: to be desired. And let me be crystal clear that 914 00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:01,000 Speaker 1: this has nothing to do with my relationship with Ray Longo. 915 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: I looked at the entire bantamweight division, right, and Corey 916 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 1: Sandhagen and other guys that go about everything the right way, 917 00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: you know, and even some may be criticizing may Rob 918 00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 1: who all of a sudden decides to have what was 919 00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 1: a very invasive surgery. I don't know, man, I don't know. 920 00:45:16,760 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 1: I just it didn't sit well with me how it 921 00:45:18,400 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 1: all went down. Kenny, I don't know if you have 922 00:45:19,719 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: any thoughts on on Tohudo's withdrawal or any of that. 923 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, So Shudo is is he's out of the fight 924 00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 6: for what reason? He's claiming an Joel Okay shoulder edge. Okay, 925 00:45:30,239 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 6: that's what I thought, all right. Yeah, it's tough, man, 926 00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:36,440 Speaker 6: because here we live in this world where if you 927 00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,080 Speaker 6: find any weakness as a fighter, you know, some of 928 00:45:39,160 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 6: those guys are are going to try to poke, especially 929 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 6: if it's something that the UFC organization has said or 930 00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,960 Speaker 6: you know, it's like, I don't know. I mean, it 931 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 6: seems to me that the UFC isn't so keen on 932 00:45:53,800 --> 00:45:56,160 Speaker 6: having Al Joe as their champion. And I think Henry 933 00:45:56,239 --> 00:45:59,040 Speaker 6: sudo is trying to poke at that and make it 934 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:02,479 Speaker 6: worse and trying to poke at that wound more and more, 935 00:46:02,600 --> 00:46:04,919 Speaker 6: and you know, and here he is now not able 936 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 6: to fight. It's it's it's a tough situation, man. I 937 00:46:10,000 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 6: hate to see that kind of that level of trash talk. 938 00:46:13,160 --> 00:46:15,759 Speaker 6: The UFC is a much different place than it was 939 00:46:15,840 --> 00:46:20,000 Speaker 6: when I was fighting, I think, And you know, to 940 00:46:20,040 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 6: see Sahudo now, I don't know, I don't know, maybe 941 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:27,200 Speaker 6: it's karma, whatever it is. But it's unfortunate that he 942 00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:28,800 Speaker 6: isn't going to go out there and fight after he 943 00:46:28,800 --> 00:46:31,360 Speaker 6: said he was going to fight. But I think Shuda 944 00:46:31,440 --> 00:46:33,680 Speaker 6: is a fantastic fighter, man. I think having him as 945 00:46:33,719 --> 00:46:36,040 Speaker 6: a part of the division though, is much better than 946 00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:38,320 Speaker 6: having him not be a part of it. I agree, 947 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 6: And that card is so damn stacked. Luckily that you know, 948 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:44,759 Speaker 6: I don't think it's going to be a huge dent 949 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 6: as far as you know, viewership or anything like that. 950 00:46:47,760 --> 00:46:52,000 Speaker 6: I love the card regardless. So Boston has a tremendous card. 951 00:46:52,000 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 6: I think people are still gonna go nuts over it. 952 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,120 Speaker 6: It's still going to do great numbers, I think, uh 953 00:46:56,239 --> 00:46:59,239 Speaker 6: numbers wise, pay per view wise. So I don't know, man, 954 00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 6: I think the proof is the pudding. Aljo's going to 955 00:47:01,239 --> 00:47:03,320 Speaker 6: be there, you know, God bless I hope, you know, 956 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,800 Speaker 6: God willing he stays healthy and all that stuff and 957 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 6: that fight happens. But yeah, interesting, interesting how it all 958 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:10,000 Speaker 6: turned out. 959 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, from me as a non fighter, ray to suggest 960 00:47:14,480 --> 00:47:18,520 Speaker 1: that Henry Suhudo accepted the fight, know and he probably 961 00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,040 Speaker 1: wasn't going to be able to make the walk, but 962 00:47:20,080 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 1: as an MMA fan just watching from Afar and how 963 00:47:23,080 --> 00:47:25,879 Speaker 1: he was handling his recreational time after the Aljo fight, 964 00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:31,000 Speaker 1: it just seemed ambitious, idealistic, and unrealistic that he was 965 00:47:31,040 --> 00:47:33,160 Speaker 1: going to fight someone as dangerous as Cheeto Vera here 966 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 1: on as short a timeline as Aljo was going to 967 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,480 Speaker 1: have for O'Malley, it made no sense. I was not 968 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:39,040 Speaker 1: at all surprised to see him pull out. 969 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, and again no, not really disrespect to Henry. I 970 00:47:42,160 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 7: do like Heny, but I think you gotta I don't like. 971 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:46,719 Speaker 7: I don't like the bullshit talking. I don't And this 972 00:47:46,880 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 7: is the reason why, because then when a backvoy, it 973 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,880 Speaker 7: looked as you look like a complete asshole. 974 00:47:52,120 --> 00:47:52,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what I mean. 975 00:47:52,960 --> 00:47:54,480 Speaker 7: But and I don't think he was winning that fight 976 00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,040 Speaker 7: with Cheto. That was not never going to be an 977 00:47:57,040 --> 00:47:59,200 Speaker 7: easy fight. Even if he takes him down, Cheeto could 978 00:47:59,200 --> 00:48:00,920 Speaker 7: open him up with els to the head. You know, 979 00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 7: he's he's pretty good off his back with that stuff. 980 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,879 Speaker 7: That was not an easy fight. He wasn't gonna hurt 981 00:48:05,960 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 7: Cheetos standing up by no means. 982 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:11,319 Speaker 5: I don't believe. It's just. 983 00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 7: You know, when I see my guy subjected to unnecessary bullshit, 984 00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 7: I just get a little wacky, you know what I mean. So, yeah, 985 00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 7: and I not two wrongs make it right. But I 986 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 7: understand al Joe's frustration and having to sit there, and 987 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:28,160 Speaker 7: I think he takes all the criticism as well as 988 00:48:28,200 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 7: anybody can, and he's done it for the last couple 989 00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:33,360 Speaker 7: of years, and I think it actually gives him strength. 990 00:48:33,480 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 7: So I think Henry pulling out. Actually, he's going to 991 00:48:36,080 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 7: give him more strength in this fight. I think it 992 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,880 Speaker 7: gives him another purpose. 993 00:48:44,000 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 1: And just like that, Raymond has blacked out. I did 994 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:48,279 Speaker 1: have one more question for him, but it's probably a 995 00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 1: good time to stop it down with uh with Raymond 996 00:48:52,640 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 1: Peter Longo, well you have see two nine.
