Knowing that you 34 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:10,799 Speaker 3: were going to be after this exercise? So what time 35 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: did you nap from? 36 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 2: I took a nap. Let's see it like from like 37 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 2: three thirty to about six. 38 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 3: All right, good, so you should be in pretty good shape. 39 00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,640 Speaker 3: So we're going to try to present to you folks 40 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,920 Speaker 3: a power hour. We'll see how my WiFi holds up. 41 00:02:23,919 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 3: But we appreciate everybody joining us live. And I know 42 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 3: for a lot of people in Australia or other parts 43 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,400 Speaker 3: of the world right who make tremendous sacrifices to ingest 44 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,959 Speaker 3: this UFC content all the time. Hopefully this is happening 45 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,680 Speaker 3: at a good hour and maybe this is something that 46 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 3: is of appeal to you moving forward and maybe something 47 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,640 Speaker 3: that we consider because it's Ken Flow knows. Dude, you 48 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 3: think I just hit the pillow and fall asleep after 49 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 3: these things, right, you know? But I am getting increasingly 50 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:54,720 Speaker 3: more starstruck and not less when I'm around Poeton alex 51 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 3: Po data bro, Like, you're a Brazilian jiu jitsu black belt, 52 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:04,240 Speaker 3: but you're also a striker. You're basically a lifelong martial artist. 53 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:06,880 Speaker 3: So what is it about this guy as he defends 54 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 3: his belt now for the third time at one hundred 55 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 3: and seventy five days that has guys like Joe Rogan 56 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: speaking in superlatives that they've never uttered before. 57 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 2: I don't get starstruck I'm around someone I don't really 58 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 2: see it. I'm like, Okay, no big deal. When I 59 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:27,799 Speaker 2: see Pata though, he's different. He is a star. That's 60 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,959 Speaker 2: a dude that I get chills when he walks out 61 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 2: to fight. It's just a completely different thing. There's no 62 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 2: question about it. I tweeted about it. That guy has 63 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: an aura about him just when he's walking around and 64 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,880 Speaker 2: the whole look, and it's not a look as him 65 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 2: putting on anything other than being who he is. This 66 00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:51,320 Speaker 2: dude is built to fight, He's built to perform. He 67 00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 2: is a promoter's dream. 68 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 3: Wow, there is so much to discuss here, and certainly 69 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 3: it feels as we could spend a full thirty minutes 70 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 3: on this main event. So a lot to get into 71 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 3: tonight as we recap the piss out of UFC three 72 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 3: zero seven headlines brought by Quervo, now's a good time 73 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. And you can't 74 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 3: get a double here in Salt Lake City, Utah. But 75 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 3: it might have been some good forethought by me to 76 00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,960 Speaker 3: actually have something to drink that isn't life water right 77 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,640 Speaker 3: now after getting off a nine hour broadcast, eight hours 78 00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:26,359 Speaker 3: on the air, and then the postfight show as well. 79 00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:29,960 Speaker 3: But ken Flow, Alex Padata is still the UFC's light 80 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 3: heavyweight champion. Had to face some adversity, had to dig deep, however, 81 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:37,440 Speaker 3: trite that sounds. He was down two to one on 82 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 3: all three judges scorecards. I know some people out there 83 00:04:40,560 --> 00:04:42,800 Speaker 3: had Alex Padata up three to nil. Right, he was 84 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 3: not incompetitive by any standard in those first three rounds. 85 00:04:47,200 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 3: But this is incredible what this man has accomplished in 86 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:52,480 Speaker 3: twenty twenty four. That says nothing of what he has 87 00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 3: done prior. But as far as this fight is concerned itself, 88 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 3: your thoughts on Alex Padataklil, Roundtree, Junior's heart and defeat 89 00:04:58,880 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 3: and everything else. 90 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,920 Speaker 2: You could sum it up with one word, and that 91 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 2: word is brilliant. I think that you know. I love 92 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,600 Speaker 2: that little tidbit about Joe Rogan talking to Mark Goddard 93 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 2: about the sound of the strikes of Alex Beneda right. 94 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: But you know the powers there, that is clear. You 95 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 2: know his durability all that stuff. But again, this is 96 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: an extremely intelligent striker John the way that he systematically 97 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 2: broke him down from the calf kicks to the body shots. 98 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: After round two, Khalil just was not the same guy physically, 99 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,039 Speaker 2: wasn't able to blitz in the same manner that lead 100 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 2: leg was compromised, and Padeda just started to take over. 101 00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,040 Speaker 2: He understood the range, he realized his left hook was 102 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 2: largely taken away from him. He said, no problem, I 103 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 2: have other weapons and then proceeded to use those weapons 104 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: in devastating fashion. Padata is a brilliant striker man, just 105 00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 2: amazing what he can do out there and how he 106 00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 2: can adapt and just whoever he is facing because Khalil 107 00:06:02,880 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 2: was an inspired fire out there. He was courageous, he 108 00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,919 Speaker 2: was determined, just still didn't have enough against the Great 109 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:10,799 Speaker 2: Alex Betta. 110 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: And recently some of you probably heard the last style bender, 111 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,279 Speaker 3: the Great Israelata Sonia say I'm good man, I gotta 112 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:17,839 Speaker 3: win over him last time. 113 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 4: Now I'm just gonna watch him. 114 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 3: From afar and is he is a guy ubiquitously regarded 115 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 3: as one of the top five strikers in UFC history. 116 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 3: And this man, Alex Poeton Pareta, just continuing to create 117 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 3: this legacy that has guys like Chill Son and in 118 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 3: the room next door suggesting that he's already the greatest 119 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,159 Speaker 3: of all time. Now we are not going to have 120 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,680 Speaker 3: that conversation tonight. But Kenny, there are a lot of 121 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:39,760 Speaker 3: different layers to this. 122 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 2: Right. 123 00:06:40,040 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 3: We've talked about the anti grappling, the elite striking that 124 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 3: gets referenced every other minute, but the work ethic, the 125 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 3: working constantly. You haven't been there in Danbury, Connecticut watching 126 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 3: his every move, but stammon as a weapon for this guy. 127 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 3: And even though he hasn't faced that truly elite wrestler, 128 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 3: Daniel Cormier doesn't exist at light heavyweight right now. So 129 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 3: you know, this guy's really putting in the right work 130 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 3: over to share a Plinio Cruz, everybody else for Nellie, 131 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:09,640 Speaker 3: Felise on it goes man. But they're doing work the 132 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 3: right way, and I think that work, the cardiovascular base, 133 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:14,920 Speaker 3: the stamina, these are big parts of it as well. 134 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 2: Dude, There's no question about it. It's almost a concern 135 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 2: in some ways, just because every time I see him, 136 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 2: no matter where he's at, he's sparring someone you know, 137 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:27,280 Speaker 2: and he's usually like some heavyweight boxer or some you know, 138 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 2: highly regarded kickboxer from wherever the heck it is. So 139 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 2: he's always sparring these huge dudes. And again, this is 140 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 2: a big component to why he is who he is. 141 00:07:36,720 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 2: I think over time he'll actually probably need to dial 142 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 2: that down a little bit because he is staying so 143 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 2: active as a fighter. But there's no question about it. 144 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: This guy is working over time. He fully understands he 145 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:52,320 Speaker 2: only has a certain window to be able to maximize 146 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 2: what he's bringing to the UFC's octagon, and he's putting 147 00:07:57,160 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 2: the work in. Man, this guy is disciplined. Every time 148 00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 2: I see him, he shows a new wrinkle to his game, 149 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 2: the improvements that he's shown from you know, the first 150 00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 2: fight that we did for the rewind for the UFC 151 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,960 Speaker 2: to where he's at now. Dude, it's unbelievable. It's unbelieve. 152 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: This is a true martial artist. But he's also a 153 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: fighter man all the way down to the heart. 154 00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 3: There are so many different directions in which we know 155 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 3: when it comes to assessing this athlete. UFC three oh 156 00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 3: three this summer, right, he saves the day second biggest 157 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:32,720 Speaker 3: car of the year to UFC three hundred, which by 158 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,760 Speaker 3: the way, he headlined as well, steps in for Connor McGregor, 159 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,680 Speaker 3: so to speak. At UFC three oh three. He's in 160 00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:40,800 Speaker 3: Australia when he gets to the call to fight Uriprohoskin. 161 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:43,920 Speaker 3: Right now, if he had gotten the call to fight 162 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 3: a south paw like Khalil Roundtree Junior with a couple 163 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,199 Speaker 3: of weeks to spare, he's not taking that fight necessarily, right. 164 00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 3: There's a lot of method to the madness of Alex Padata, Right. 165 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 3: They felt like they could beat Uri pro Hoska in 166 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 3: that setting, right, but this Roundtree ange Kenny the undeniable 167 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:07,720 Speaker 3: power obviously, but the speed advantage, right, and he fought 168 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,080 Speaker 3: a good fight, well coached by john Wood. You know, 169 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 3: john Wood was well within his right to suggest that 170 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 3: his athlete could do this. What were your thoughts on 171 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 3: the way padeda sort of handled some of what Rountree 172 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 3: Junior brings to the table that maybe he hadn't necessarily 173 00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:23,000 Speaker 3: seen in the USC octagon before. 174 00:09:23,559 --> 00:09:26,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, listen, and to your point earlier about you know, 175 00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 2: the decisions he's making and the fights he's taking. You know, 176 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 2: a big credit goes to the people that he keeps 177 00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 2: around him. You know, he's got a lot of MMA 178 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,800 Speaker 2: experience around him, between plenty o Cruz and Glover Tischeda. 179 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,920 Speaker 2: But anyways, and again, this is a very intelligent man. 180 00:09:39,960 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: In my opinion, I think that's underestimated. But the way 181 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 2: that he was able to adjust the range and deal 182 00:09:47,200 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 2: with the blitz and understand and trust the process of 183 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: going he's gonna slow down. And then after round one 184 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 2: being like, I think he's gonna slow down, let me 185 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 2: continue taking out that lead. And sure enough it took 186 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: a little bit, but by round three, Khalil was was 187 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 2: not able to blitz in this same manner that he 188 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,640 Speaker 2: was before, and he wasn't able to reach him and 189 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,120 Speaker 2: touch him with the same combinations he was landing before. 190 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 2: So I think it was, you know, the dividends paying 191 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:20,120 Speaker 2: off with the body shots, with the with the calf 192 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,199 Speaker 2: kicks of course that lead leg of Khalil and him 193 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 2: adjusting the range, the usage of his jab John, the 194 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: use of the use of that cross was something to 195 00:10:31,120 --> 00:10:36,040 Speaker 2: behold man. And then finally adding in the sprinkling in 196 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 2: of those body shots which ultimately got him the finish 197 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 2: was just gorgeous, you know. The only knock. If I'm 198 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: gonna look at something and be like, this is what 199 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 2: I would have liked to see him do. I would 200 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:46,640 Speaker 2: have liked to see him go to the body with 201 00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 2: his punches a little bit early. But other than that, dude, 202 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: this was a masterclass. Really just amazing. 203 00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 3: It's amazing to me, as maybe a basketball player that 204 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 3: didn't always rise to the occasion right to see a 205 00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:03,040 Speaker 3: guy like Alex in this setting, not just talk about 206 00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 3: the experience advantage he has over Klough Rowntree Junior, but 207 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 3: to just be cold as ice ice water in the 208 00:11:09,480 --> 00:11:13,199 Speaker 3: fucking veins out there right, doesn't even blink when he's staying. 209 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 3: I just I can't relate to all of you who 210 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:17,760 Speaker 3: are just so clutch. I know that's a word that 211 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 3: a lot of people don't even like in professional sports, 212 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,959 Speaker 3: but the guy is just it's like a sparring session. 213 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:22,959 Speaker 3: It's like, all right, here we go again. You know, 214 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:25,360 Speaker 3: I'm gonna fight the perfect fight and uh defend the 215 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 3: title again. 216 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: Dude, So you'll know way better than I. And I 217 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 2: was talking to Cody a little bit before the show. 218 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: Is there any other you know? Does the UFC stay 219 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 2: on a fighter that long for other main events? For 220 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 2: whatever reason? I again, like time stops whenever Patata's there, 221 00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 2: and they zoom in on his eyes and they zoom 222 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 2: in on his opponent's eye, and it seems like they're 223 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:51,240 Speaker 2: staying there forever. And I love every damn second of it. 224 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,319 Speaker 2: I don't know what do they do that for every 225 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 2: main event? Or am I just crazy? Or is it 226 00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 2: just the Predata effect? 227 00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 4: Yeah? Just the Podata effect. 228 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 3: Okay, all right, because best walkout in combat sports history, 229 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,199 Speaker 3: I think Rogan certainly at present, but no, So they 230 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 3: did it for Yuri pro Hoska, and it was the 231 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 3: craziest thing, right, and neither one of them blinked, right, 232 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,560 Speaker 3: But tonight they're doing it and my initial inner monologue, 233 00:12:14,760 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 3: believe it or not, it's like, are we really doing 234 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 3: this again? Like this thing again? Are we going to 235 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 3: elongate this thing again? And I looked over at Dana 236 00:12:20,640 --> 00:12:23,719 Speaker 3: White and I almost felt as though maybe he had 237 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:27,320 Speaker 3: the same sentiment, as if to say, but hey, if 238 00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 3: Kenny Florian, three time UFC title challenger has give me 239 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 3: more of that than fine, I. 240 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 2: Listen again, like I'm not a big pageantry guy, like, 241 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:38,560 Speaker 2: but whatever it is, Like Pata, dude, I love it. 242 00:12:38,559 --> 00:12:44,080 Speaker 2: It is unfreaking believable because he is believable. His eyes 243 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 2: go black. I've never seen in other dude's fighters eyes 244 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 2: like patatas the way, just the stone cold look, the 245 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:56,240 Speaker 2: lack of blinking. He's a menace. 246 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 3: I mean, if you're a mixed martial arts fan looking 247 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,560 Speaker 3: for a new tattoo, I mean, do you not go 248 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 3: get that fucking statue emoji on your forehead? Like tonight? 249 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure there's some parlors still open twenty 250 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,680 Speaker 3: four to seven in Vegas. I'm afraid to like move 251 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 3: on to something that I shouldn't because I think there's 252 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 3: so much to unpack when it comes to this fight. 253 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 3: But could we at least give a little flower treatment 254 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 3: to Klil Rowntree Junior, just for the heart, the approach, 255 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 3: the overall sort of willingness to commit to the martial 256 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:29,880 Speaker 3: arts lifestyle. To we even position himself for this opportunity 257 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 3: when he lost to Marchene Pragneo with respect a few 258 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:35,360 Speaker 3: years ago, to have dropped his third fight in his 259 00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 3: last four and nobody could have foreseen this. 260 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:42,520 Speaker 2: I agree. Man, Listen, Khalil, this is one of those fights. 261 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 2: And you know, you hear people say this, you know, 262 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 2: all the time, a cliche of like, you know, he 263 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:50,840 Speaker 2: actually won this one, but he really did. He first 264 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 2: of all, yes, he's gonna learn a ton from this, 265 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:57,040 Speaker 2: but he proved to so many people every you know, 266 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 2: myself included of what he's capable bull of. He came 267 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 2: out inspired. He came out, you know, despite maybe having 268 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: a little bit of doubt in his head, because I 269 00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 2: think that was present right before the fight, a little bit, 270 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 2: I think in his eyes. I mean, anybody would if 271 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 2: you're looking at Pata across from the cage. But you know, 272 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 2: especially given the fact that he was a striker, but dude, 273 00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:22,040 Speaker 2: he performed amazingly well. There's no one else that I 274 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 2: think has done. Has been that successful on the feet 275 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 2: against Padeda at two hundred and five pounds man, so 276 00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 2: he should be applauded. He's a stud. He also shows 277 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: a lot of class after the fight every single time. 278 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, and this time around he wasn't in person for 279 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 3: our fighter meeting, but you can be sure five minutes 280 00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:44,920 Speaker 3: early on the phone more than willing to give up 281 00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 3: his time, no matter how treacherous a weight cut. So 282 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,600 Speaker 3: in terms of Khalil Rowntree Junior against the rest of 283 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,920 Speaker 3: this division, and then we'll circle back to Pooton wicked 284 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 3: competitive right. He got the Jamal Hill fight at UFC 285 00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 3: three zero three that went away, of course because of 286 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,479 Speaker 3: the tainted supplement or whatever it was. But I would imagine, 287 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 3: based upon what you saw tonight, with a rebuild some suitures. 288 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 3: You could check in with the ren Al Donna too. 289 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,360 Speaker 3: She'll make you feel better. But how do you think 290 00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 3: you would handicap him right now against guys like Alexander Rockets, 291 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 3: Magamet Uncliath, Jamal Hill and the other guys that likely 292 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:21,600 Speaker 3: are going to show up in his bracket. 293 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 2: Next, you know, so long as he keeps that same 294 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 2: attitude man, and he continues with all that hard work. 295 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,160 Speaker 2: I would have him as a favorite against all of 296 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:32,960 Speaker 2: those guys, you know, it would it would have to take, 297 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 2: you know, some kind of a grappler to really beat 298 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:38,600 Speaker 2: him at this point. And for me to kind of 299 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:42,680 Speaker 2: have Khalil as the underdog because for him to have 300 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 2: that amount of success against Paeda, that's a confidence builder. 301 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: And I think he's gonna learn a lot of what 302 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:54,360 Speaker 2: Podeda did to him. And yeah, I'm excited for his future. Man, 303 00:15:54,400 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 2: I don't know how long much longer he wants to 304 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 2: stick around. But you know, Jamal Hill, you know, had 305 00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 2: a little words. I think he was making a gesture, 306 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 2: maybe that he was yawning or something like that. I 307 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 2: don't know exactly what it was. I couldn't, but he's 308 00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 2: Jamal Hill has to be careful to not get too 309 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 2: over confident because he may face a guy like Khalil 310 00:16:12,240 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 2: and find himself, you know, on the canvas sleeping again. 311 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,880 Speaker 2: Because I think Khalil is that dangerous. And for Jamal Hill, 312 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,320 Speaker 2: I think he should kind of go back to listen. 313 00:16:20,720 --> 00:16:23,680 Speaker 2: What made Jamal Hill good was his work, ethic and 314 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 2: his and his humility, and I think he needs to 315 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 2: go back to that. But anyways, and this is more 316 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 2: about Khalil, so let's go back to that. 317 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 3: So I guess I'm being told Jamal Hill was octagon side. 318 00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 3: He was in the building pantomiming, yawning or something after 319 00:16:37,960 --> 00:16:40,720 Speaker 3: the fight. Okay, so yeah, I don't know if Yeah, 320 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 3: that's very well a fight that uh, that could get 321 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:49,080 Speaker 3: rebooked in short orders. So so when Alex Panda lost 322 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:51,920 Speaker 3: his midleweight title to Israel Otta Sonia, his next fight, 323 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,040 Speaker 3: I believe was against Yambohova tot UFC two ninety one 324 00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 3: in Salt Lake City, his light heavyweight debut, so they 325 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 3: could or maybe weren'ting to necessarily give him an media 326 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 3: championship opportunity at two oh five. But let us not 327 00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 3: forget right that split decision against Yambohovic. If that flips right, 328 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 3: who knows. And it's just incredible to think that this 329 00:17:12,200 --> 00:17:15,680 Speaker 3: guy has now reeled off four straight UFC light Heavyweight 330 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:20,400 Speaker 3: championship wins. As we spin it forward, anything else actually 331 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:22,439 Speaker 3: on the fight itself that you want to I mean, 332 00:17:22,440 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 3: the finishing sequence, bro with the body shots, right, I mean, 333 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 3: it's almost like everything slowing down for him in real time. 334 00:17:28,560 --> 00:17:31,280 Speaker 3: And I could just say, as a commentator in that moment, 335 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 3: it's an out of body experience. 336 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,840 Speaker 2: He's a killer. I could see why, man, But again, 337 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 2: this is a promoter's dream. It's why he has stayed 338 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:45,199 Speaker 2: so busy. He deserves every penny that he's getting in 339 00:17:45,280 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 2: more and I think for him, I hope he takes 340 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 2: a little bit of time off man, you know, enjoy relaxed, 341 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,080 Speaker 2: let the body recover a little bit. But he probably won't. 342 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 2: We'll just go right back to training, dude. And I 343 00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:59,239 Speaker 2: got I have to admit I want to see him 344 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 2: as soon as poss that's interesting. 345 00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 3: I think January would probably be too soon. I actually 346 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 3: wouldn't mind seeing him. Maybe idle intill March, but we'll 347 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,479 Speaker 3: see what happens. You certainly have to have the business 348 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 3: in three weeks between Alexander Rockets and magaved Unkliav and 349 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 3: you sort of made the segue for me, so I 350 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 3: don't really need to go too deep into the heavyweight 351 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:23,320 Speaker 3: conversation unless you do. I do not believe that Alex 352 00:18:23,359 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 3: Paeda is going to fight Tom aspinall. I do believe 353 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 3: they're heavyweight matchups for Alex Padata that are very intriguing. 354 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:35,159 Speaker 3: I actually think the John Jones matchup is better for 355 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:38,879 Speaker 3: him than Tom aspinall, but I think middleweight is more likely. 356 00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 3: And he said to Joe Rogan after the fact that 357 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:43,320 Speaker 3: his friend Shawn Strickland presumably is going to fight drink 358 00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 3: is due plus And if you read into what Sean 359 00:18:46,320 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 3: Strickland is saying, maybe that fight would happen in Australia. 360 00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 3: You have the Robert Whitaker business with kam Zat Chimaya 361 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 3: as well at middleweight. 362 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:56,160 Speaker 4: So it does not appear. 363 00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 3: That Alex Paeda's next fight is going to be at middleweight, 364 00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 3: but I think middleweight's more likely than heavyweight. It's gonna 365 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:08,160 Speaker 3: be light heavyweight right now. Kenny Ankalia of rockets UFC 366 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 3: threeh eight. Presumably if Anklia have emerges, then that would 367 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 3: be the fight against Alex Padatau. What are your thoughts 368 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,280 Speaker 3: on those three divisions? Poeton? And uh, you know, the 369 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 3: world being his fucking goddamn oyster. 370 00:19:22,800 --> 00:19:26,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, seriously, it's like, how do you know he's a superstar? Yeah, 371 00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 2: when when people are asking you about competing in three 372 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 2: different divisions, I mean for the Yeah, I mean it's crazy, 373 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:38,320 Speaker 2: but yeah, dude, I mean he's obviously moving the needle. 374 00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: I think there's a lot of possibilities for him. You know, 375 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,400 Speaker 2: if he's gonna fight at one five again, that's one 376 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 2: of those. I would love to see him take a 377 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,639 Speaker 2: lot of time off, yeah, just because you know your 378 00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 2: preparation for the way cutting all that stuff, like he's 379 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: gonna make it just because he's a savage Jim the 380 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 2: body some time to recover, please. But I I think 381 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,680 Speaker 2: we'll see him at two all five. I think we'll 382 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 2: see him at two five, most likely against Uncleliath. But Rocktch, 383 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 2: I'm sure has something to say about that. He's a 384 00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:10,760 Speaker 2: very dangerous knockout artist in his own right, and either 385 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 2: of those I think are very intriguing in my book. 386 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 3: So our producer Cody Merrow just wrote something in the 387 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:19,040 Speaker 3: chat here. It's three h three am where he lives 388 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:20,800 Speaker 3: in the great state of New Hampshire. I'm not sure 389 00:20:20,840 --> 00:20:23,119 Speaker 3: that adjective is always used on the front end of 390 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 3: New Hampshire. But he wrote Poeton versus aspinall two hundred 391 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,000 Speaker 3: and twenty five pound title. And I don't know if 392 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,960 Speaker 3: you're trying to incite me. Have you met Tom aspinall 393 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 3: Bro he might. 394 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 4: Well, I mean you're talking about taking time off. 395 00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 3: For Tommy Aspinhall, you have to just get on a 396 00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,880 Speaker 3: tread and I mean no, he can't. 397 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,640 Speaker 2: Make the size of a polar bear. 398 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 3: Cody gets you think every time I see it, I 399 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 3: think it's also weighs one sixty. So but for Alex Panta, 400 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,080 Speaker 3: it's likely going to be light heavyweight. And we just 401 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 3: had a conversation on the post show. And sometimes I 402 00:20:58,359 --> 00:21:00,480 Speaker 3: don't like to repeat things that I say on pay 403 00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 3: per view because I think this audience immediately after the fact, 404 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,520 Speaker 3: heard everything that I had to say. But magamet Anklieth, 405 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:11,919 Speaker 3: as Anthony Lionheart Smith suggested and I intimated, is not 406 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:15,720 Speaker 3: some chain takedown guy. Right, There's not who is the 407 00:21:17,280 --> 00:21:19,719 Speaker 3: who's the best wrestler in the light heavyweight division or 408 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 3: the guy who prioritizes offensive wrestling the most. So let 409 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 3: us just for a second handicap Alex Paeda and magamet 410 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 3: An Kliath, because I don't think Uncliav's going out there 411 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:33,399 Speaker 3: and providing the Morob Dwalash Willie type of challenge that 412 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:34,880 Speaker 3: Sean O'Malley had to deal with. 413 00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,639 Speaker 2: Right well, no, for sure, as far as that level 414 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 2: of pace and pressure, absolutely I agree. I don't think 415 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,919 Speaker 2: he's going to be that guy who's constantly looking for 416 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:50,439 Speaker 2: the takedown. He may try, but he may find himself 417 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:52,960 Speaker 2: very tired because I think Padeda knows how to stall 418 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:54,760 Speaker 2: the action on the ground, He knows how to get 419 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,600 Speaker 2: back to his feet and on Caliath is not really 420 00:21:57,640 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 2: this kind of submission machine where he's super dangerous, you know, 421 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:04,760 Speaker 2: on your limbs or on your neck or anything like that. 422 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 2: So yeah, you know, I still think that that's gonna 423 00:22:09,800 --> 00:22:12,880 Speaker 2: be a very interesting fight to gauge exactly where Potata 424 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 2: is grappling or anti grappling game is. And yeah, I mean, 425 00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,960 Speaker 2: Uncle Ive, isn't that dude who's just constantly shooting on 426 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 2: you and can do that for twenty five minutes. He 427 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 2: should if you're gonna face someone like Padata. But I 428 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: don't think he's. 429 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 4: That guy trying to find some stats here. 430 00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 2: He's a good striker. 431 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:36,760 Speaker 3: Those were actually accurate. I'm trying to find career statistics 432 00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 3: for Maga met Ancleli have take down accuracy thirty one percent. 433 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 3: I'm not gonna dive too deep in here. I just 434 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,640 Speaker 3: got off the air, But obviously if I had gone 435 00:22:45,720 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 3: through the full regular preparation for the Anaiconploring podcast. I 436 00:22:49,320 --> 00:22:51,240 Speaker 3: could have presented a few more numbers for you, but 437 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 3: the point remains in certain divisions that real pain in 438 00:22:57,600 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 3: the ass wrestler that's just gonna make for a suffocate 439 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:05,400 Speaker 3: night at the office does not exist. So Alex Pedata, congratulations. 440 00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:07,919 Speaker 3: Man sounds tried to say it couldn't happen to a 441 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:11,400 Speaker 3: better dude, But the man remade his life at a time, 442 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 3: made some critical decisions that key points in his life. 443 00:23:14,480 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 3: Seems a tremendous father to his two boys who seemed 444 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,159 Speaker 3: to be developing a lot of martial arts chops in 445 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 3: their own rights. So just really happy for po Aton, 446 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 3: for plenty O Cruz, for Glover to Shaida, as you're 447 00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 3: saying now, So Ken Flow actually used to just say 448 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,560 Speaker 3: Alex Pereira because he would americanize it, but you are right, 449 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,720 Speaker 3: it's like it almost needs to be one or all, 450 00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 3: Like if it's Alex Paeda, it's got to be Glover 451 00:23:38,520 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 3: to Shaida, right and joys anyway to elect in the 452 00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 3: entire team. And you know, as we New England, there's 453 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:51,120 Speaker 3: like to say, the UFC Light Heavyweight Championship belt remains. 454 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,640 Speaker 4: In New England. 455 00:23:56,119 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 3: So the women's Banhamweight Championship fight tonight, Ken Flowers, Pennington 456 00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 3: and Juliana Penya go the twenty five minute distance. 457 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,680 Speaker 4: I thought it was a close fight. 458 00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 3: It seems as though there is a lot of fan 459 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,320 Speaker 3: and commentator uproar as to the scoring, but Juliana Penya 460 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,480 Speaker 3: becomes a two time UFC Women's Span Away champion spoils 461 00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 3: the first defense for kel Pennington. 462 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,880 Speaker 4: Seems like it came down to round one. 463 00:24:18,920 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 3: I shouldn't say seems like it, because it did as 464 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,840 Speaker 3: far as the judges' scorecards were concerned. If memory serves, 465 00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:27,199 Speaker 3: Juliana Penya did land a lot of significant strikes in 466 00:24:27,200 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 3: that first round, But I thought Pennington won one, four 467 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:32,760 Speaker 3: and five. Kenny, any thoughts on the co main event. 468 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: Well, you know what, I picked Penya to win. I 469 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 2: think Penya is a very interesting character. Pennington is way 470 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 2: more quieter and all that stuff. However, you know, as 471 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 2: I was watching the fight and I went back and 472 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 2: watched it again, I actually think that Pennington had a 473 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 2: pretty good case forgetting to win as well. And you're right, 474 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:57,320 Speaker 2: I think it did come down to round one. And 475 00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 2: you know, if we're being consistent and how we're seeing 476 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 2: these fights. I think that Pennington landed the more significant bloat. 477 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,680 Speaker 2: She was a little bit more effective in my book 478 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 2: when it came to the striking. Not to say Penya 479 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 2: was not, but Pennington was more effective. What should have 480 00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:19,400 Speaker 2: given her the win? You know, overall, super close fight, 481 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 2: don't necessarily have a problem with Penia winning, but yeah, 482 00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 2: Pennington had a pretty strong argument there. 483 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 3: Man, bro I just got a text message, by the way, 484 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 3: shout out to the UFC. Man, looks like security has 485 00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,560 Speaker 3: the person who stole my Jordan's on camera. 486 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:34,520 Speaker 4: They're going to his house. 487 00:25:34,680 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 3: Way, no way, Jordan's back, Let's go. I want to 488 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,280 Speaker 3: shout out my colleague who's tracking this, but I'm gonna 489 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 3: protect him or her. 490 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:44,360 Speaker 2: That's awesome. 491 00:25:44,760 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 3: So yeah, So it's really interesting because these women, and 492 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 3: I was happy to see them hug after the fact, 493 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 3: but they really had a lot of disdain for one another, 494 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,320 Speaker 3: and I thought Raquel Pennington was going to sort of 495 00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:01,120 Speaker 3: channel that emotion in the right way. But I did 496 00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:03,040 Speaker 3: think she got lost there a little bit in rounds 497 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 3: two and three, and she got brought back by Tisha, 498 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,480 Speaker 3: who was Octagon's side and her coaches. After that third round, 499 00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 3: like go get in a fight, right, right, like go 500 00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:17,560 Speaker 3: do what we trained to do. And on the other side, 501 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 3: for Juliana Penya Kenny, I think there were factors. I 502 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 3: don't know if the altitude was a factor. I don't 503 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 3: know if ring russ from not competing since twenty twenty 504 00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 3: two was a factor. But I think the knockdown could 505 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 3: have been a factor as well as to why she 506 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 3: finished the fight so unceremoniously. But I do think part 507 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,439 Speaker 3: of it when you do lose the championship rounds and 508 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 3: then you get your hand raised and you look surprised 509 00:26:39,520 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 3: that you won, that's only going to sort of fuel 510 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,920 Speaker 3: whatever the fans are intimated. 511 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 2: Agreed, agreed. And again, you know when you when you're 512 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 2: in a fight and you have one person that finished 513 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:53,479 Speaker 2: really strong. Wasn't just the fifth round, It was the 514 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:57,160 Speaker 2: fourth and fifth round, you know, it says a lot. 515 00:26:57,320 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 2: And again you know her name's Rocky for a reason. 516 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 2: And the way that she was able to come back 517 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 2: yet again, I was not surprised by it. Pennington knows 518 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 2: how to gather herself up and get right back to it. 519 00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:10,400 Speaker 2: They I was really impressed. 520 00:27:10,400 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 3: Man, I got to take this call, so keep talking 521 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 3: for a second. This is go. 522 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 2: For it man. Yeah, that's important. See John's trying to 523 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,679 Speaker 2: get his Jordan's back. That's important. But yeah, you know, 524 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 2: I think that for for Pennington, she definitely had a 525 00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 2: strong case. She landed some really heavy shots. She was 526 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 2: able to knock Penya down not once, at least twice, 527 00:27:31,560 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 2: so you know, she showed improvements. Typically, Pennington is more 528 00:27:36,440 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 2: of a grinder, you know, she's not necessarily known for 529 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 2: her striking power. And the fact that she was able 530 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 2: to land those heavy shots and drop Penya showed improvements. 531 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,120 Speaker 2: Actually to start the fight, I thought that both ladies 532 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 2: showed improvement, Panya as well. I thought Penya's jab looked 533 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 2: way better. I think where she started to mess up 534 00:27:57,040 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 2: a little bit, I don't think she was respecting the 535 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 2: power of Pennington. In rounds four and five, she started 536 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 2: dropping her hands a little bit. Whether that was her 537 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,640 Speaker 2: being tired as you were mentioning John or not, I'm 538 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:12,880 Speaker 2: not sure. But either way, you know, Pennington was finding 539 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,480 Speaker 2: a lot of success late in the fight, and she 540 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 2: definitely showed that she's improving as a power puncher for sure. 541 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,040 Speaker 3: Thank you to Delta Center, Arena Security and the UFC 542 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 3: security team. They got my Jordan's in hand and they're 543 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 3: shipping them to Las Vegas. That's insane. 544 00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 2: Hell yeah. 545 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 3: So Kayla Harrison, have you injected her name into this 546 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 3: conversation yet? 547 00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:36,359 Speaker 2: I have not? 548 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 4: I mean, is she not a breath of fucking fresh air? 549 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 2: I love right. 550 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 4: She's awesome, she really is, and hopefully the great City. 551 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 3: Of Boston, Massachusetts ripped off on her in some of 552 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 3: her formative years. But Kayla Harrison came in second UFC appearance. 553 00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 3: Brian Petree on our show picked Kayla Harrison by decision 554 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,920 Speaker 3: minus one ten. Good on him. Caitlyn Vida had a 555 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 3: hugely damaging moment in round two. I thought Kaitlyn hander 556 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 3: handled herself very well all week, was meeting Kayla's energy 557 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 3: at the press conference, coming out of her skin. 558 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 4: But Kayla Harrison's. 559 00:29:09,400 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 3: All the rage right, even though there was a lot 560 00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 3: of back and forth and a lot of merit to 561 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 3: this title fight, Kenny, Kayla Harrison is going to be 562 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 3: the favorite to win the women's bantamweight championship against Juliana 563 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:24,280 Speaker 3: Penya whenever that fight ends up going down. So what 564 00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 3: are your thoughts on the bantamweight division now moving forward 565 00:29:26,680 --> 00:29:29,840 Speaker 3: with Juliana Penya as champion and presumably Kayla Harrison, your 566 00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 3: former PFL colleague, being next. 567 00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I listen. I think it's gonna give I think 568 00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 2: it's gonna get very interesting. And I think in a 569 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 2: lot of ways you could argue that Kaitlyn Vieira is 570 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 2: a more difficult matchup stylistically for Kayla Harrison than say 571 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 2: Penya is, just because Penya's strengths lie where Kayla Harrison's 572 00:29:47,720 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 2: strengths lie and Harrison is a world class grappler. Uh, 573 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 2: Penya is not too shabby yourself, but not quite at 574 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 2: the level of Harrison. Now, where Harrison had a little 575 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 2: bit of tru was on the feet. You know, I 576 00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,880 Speaker 2: think her kicks looked a little bit awkward. From being honest, 577 00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:06,600 Speaker 2: she seemed a little bit tired or maybe she was 578 00:30:06,680 --> 00:30:09,600 Speaker 2: kind of reserving energy in round two a little bit. 579 00:30:09,840 --> 00:30:15,280 Speaker 2: But Kentlyn certainly deserves some credit for fighting defensively, you know, 580 00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 2: more defensively. Dean Thomas talked about that. So but you know, 581 00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 2: it's not a knock on Vienna. I think it was 582 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,120 Speaker 2: smart for her to try to avoid that grappling a 583 00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,480 Speaker 2: little bit. But in round three, Harrison was able to 584 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 2: get back into that clinch, take her down and get 585 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,240 Speaker 2: back to work on the ground. So you know the 586 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,440 Speaker 2: level is different in the UFC. Okay, and Kaitlyn is 587 00:30:36,640 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 2: no slout, She's tough, she's good everywhere. But at the 588 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,960 Speaker 2: same time, we also saw how good Harrison is once 589 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:47,040 Speaker 2: she takes the fight to the ground. So I can't wait, man. 590 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 2: I think Harrison as a champ or potential champ in 591 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 2: the UFC. I think we'll bring a lot of good 592 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 2: things for the women's division. 593 00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 4: Both of these women so well coached. 594 00:30:55,440 --> 00:30:59,560 Speaker 3: Andre Peternaris and Kaitlyn via to have an amazing kinship 595 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:02,680 Speaker 3: and connect and then just that American Top Team powerhouse 596 00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 3: Anderson Franco and Mike Brown and Steve Maco and Kaylin 597 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 3: Harrison just so coachable, and she's the opposite of gast 598 00:31:09,920 --> 00:31:12,840 Speaker 3: in every moment seemingly right. I haven't seen her tired 599 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 3: at all. I'm really curious to see a fight against 600 00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 3: Juliana Penya. Anthony Smith suggests on the postfight show that 601 00:31:19,280 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 3: even though maybe he thought were Cal Pennington won the 602 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 3: title fight, that he believes at Juliana Penny Kayla Harrison 603 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,239 Speaker 3: fight is more appealing slash competitive. I'm not sure if 604 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 3: you agree on that. 605 00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 2: I'm not sure it's competitive, but it's appealing because both 606 00:31:31,440 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 2: those ladies they have a lot of character. Man, they 607 00:31:34,840 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 2: have a lot of charisma. I would love to just 608 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 2: hear those two go back and forth on the mic. 609 00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 2: They had some great moments at the press conference, and 610 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 2: I think they can really build a very interesting fight 611 00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 2: because also people in the UFC are still trying to 612 00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,600 Speaker 2: figure out who Kayla Harrison is, right, So I think 613 00:31:52,960 --> 00:31:55,200 Speaker 2: it's very interesting and I think that's a fight we 614 00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 2: will see in early twenty twenty five. 615 00:31:57,880 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 3: They could have pushed Kayla Harrison right into a tight 616 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,280 Speaker 3: fight after she submitted Holly Holm. The way she did it, 617 00:32:02,360 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 3: you have some three hundred. They made her pass this test, right, 618 00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,560 Speaker 3: so you would submit to me that this fight between 619 00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 3: Kaitlyn Vieda and Kayla Harrison was competitive. Kaitlyn Vieda one 620 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 3: around on I think one judge of scorecard, if not two, 621 00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:17,880 Speaker 3: maybe it was just one. So but you don't necessarily 622 00:32:17,880 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: think Kayla Harrison Juliana Pena is as competitive. But I'm 623 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,800 Speaker 3: not trying to put you on the spot, right, But no, no, no, 624 00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 3: I feel like you maybe are saying in some part, 625 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:30,400 Speaker 3: I don't know how you'd handicap Kaitlyn Vieda versus Juliana Penya, 626 00:32:30,520 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 3: but it sounds like, I know, styles make fights, but 627 00:32:32,440 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 3: maybe you're saying that a Viada Harrison rematch might be 628 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 3: more competitive than a Juliana Penya Kayla Harrison fighter, are 629 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:39,360 Speaker 3: you not? 630 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:43,720 Speaker 2: Yeah? No, exactly. I think that you know, Kaitlyn is 631 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 2: a big, strong, one hundred and thirty five pounds female. 632 00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 2: Penya is not like built up like that. And I 633 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:58,440 Speaker 2: also don't think her striking is as developed as Kaitlyn Vieira. 634 00:32:58,840 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 2: So I think Vera had enough anti grappling skills and 635 00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 2: she was dangerous enough on the feet, as was evidenced 636 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:08,200 Speaker 2: by that beautiful elbo that she threw that she she 637 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:12,280 Speaker 2: posed some problems for Harrison. I don't know if Pena 638 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:16,560 Speaker 2: possesses those same types of skills, And again, it doesn't matter. 639 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 2: Penya is a very tough fighter, There's no question about 640 00:33:19,560 --> 00:33:21,920 Speaker 2: She's a champ for a reason, you know, her second 641 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 2: time doing so. However, I think just the way that 642 00:33:25,760 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: they match up, I think it's a little bit more 643 00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 2: favorable to Harrison than the Vieera fight was. 644 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll see where Raquel Pennington goes from here. I 645 00:33:33,840 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 3: think the tough thing for Raquel is that a lot 646 00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 3: of those matchups are tough, and she's been in a 647 00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 3: lot of close fights, even the split decision against Kaitlyn Vita, right, 648 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 3: and maybe that would be a fight that would come 649 00:33:43,720 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 3: around again Macy Schasson in a rematch. There's a lot 650 00:33:46,720 --> 00:33:49,120 Speaker 3: of talent at thirty five right now. I mean the 651 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:52,280 Speaker 3: name I brought up, of course, Big Norm Norman Dumont 652 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:53,880 Speaker 3: factors prominently in anything. 653 00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:56,000 Speaker 2: Dude, absolutely right. 654 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 3: But Julian Penna is the champ and she deserves her 655 00:34:00,760 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 3: flowers to be sure to come back and fight as 656 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 3: competitively as she did, and rounds two and three presents 657 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:08,920 Speaker 3: in a lot of shining moments. I thought her boxing 658 00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:12,440 Speaker 3: looked improved, and we'll see what she has presumably for 659 00:34:12,520 --> 00:34:13,240 Speaker 3: Kayla Harrison. 660 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:14,800 Speaker 4: Any thoughts on Amanda Nunez. 661 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:20,120 Speaker 3: She did post something on X but I don't really 662 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 3: think that Amanda Nunez is going to come back imminently. 663 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 3: But I think for Nunez, the Penna fight is not 664 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:26,640 Speaker 3: of any appeal. 665 00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't think it is. You know, it's possible 666 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 2: that she comes back for miss Harrison, who knows, you know, 667 00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 2: you former teammates. I think that would be a big 668 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:39,000 Speaker 2: money fight, you know, especially after let's say Harrison wins 669 00:34:39,000 --> 00:34:41,800 Speaker 2: the belt, she defends once or twice, then maybe, but 670 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 2: who knows, you know, Nunez deserves to to kind of 671 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,279 Speaker 2: ride off into the sunset. I think she's living a 672 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:49,359 Speaker 2: good life right now. I don't know how active she 673 00:34:49,480 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 2: is as a fighter, or how how much she's training, 674 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,600 Speaker 2: but you know, I would love to see her just 675 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,200 Speaker 2: retire and go off. She certainly deserves it. What an 676 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: amazing career. But who knows, maybe the Harrison it brings 677 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:01,960 Speaker 2: a lot more money for her. 678 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 4: Well that's the rub, right. 679 00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:05,319 Speaker 3: You don't need to know how hard a man is 680 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 3: training or not training, right, You need to know her 681 00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:11,520 Speaker 3: net worth, And if her net worth is less than 682 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 3: X million dollars, then the Kayla Harrison fight would be 683 00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:20,200 Speaker 3: a monumental payday. But it's interesting because Amanda Nunez's legacy 684 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 3: is so entrenched that that fight comes with so much 685 00:35:23,719 --> 00:35:27,919 Speaker 3: inherent risk. Kayla Harrison versus Amanda Nunez. But uh yeah, 686 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:30,400 Speaker 3: we'll see what happens with Juliana Penion. Kayla Harrison, you 687 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 3: just hope that they can keep the division spinning, because 688 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:37,319 Speaker 3: I'm excited about the women's bandon weight division right now. 689 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 3: But Raquel Pennington won the belt in January and took 690 00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 3: almost a year for the first title defense to happen. 691 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 3: So hopefully Kayla Harrison gets her shot in short order. 692 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:48,760 Speaker 3: All right, let us get to Jose Aldo and Mario 693 00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 3: Bautista if we could featured out in the bandam weight 694 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:55,719 Speaker 3: division goes to Mario Bautista by split decision. A lot 695 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,520 Speaker 3: of people seem up in arms about a lot of 696 00:35:57,560 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 3: fucking things tonight. I thought it was a close fight. 697 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 3: I did the rightful winner one. I know there are 698 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 3: a lot of layers to this fight. What did you 699 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 3: make of these fifteen minutes between the number ten and 700 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:10,240 Speaker 3: eleventh rank bandam weights in the world respective? 701 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 2: How dare you have an opinion on this? John? Yeah, no, listen, 702 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 2: I think that I think it's valid. You know, I 703 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 2: think you have a valid opinion. I disagree with it. 704 00:36:20,960 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 2: I thought that Aldo won, but again we're talking about 705 00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 2: you know, it's a close fight. It's a close fight, 706 00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 2: there's no question about it. I thought that Aldo was 707 00:36:32,000 --> 00:36:35,839 Speaker 2: more effective as a striker in round three, I thought 708 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,799 Speaker 2: Bautista one round one. I thought Aldo one round two 709 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:43,600 Speaker 2: perhaps the most convincing of the rounds, and Bautista did 710 00:36:43,600 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 2: a great job of trying to get to the clinch 711 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,600 Speaker 2: and disrupting the rhythm of Aldo. Right, So I thought, 712 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 2: I thought it was a good game plan, but I 713 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,319 Speaker 2: thought that Aldo was a little bit more effective when 714 00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,479 Speaker 2: it came down to it. But again, not a whole 715 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:59,319 Speaker 2: lot happened on the feet, you know what I mean. 716 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:02,440 Speaker 2: So I get it. It was Bautista who was the 717 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:05,520 Speaker 2: guy moving forward, you know, looking for the takedowns. He 718 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 2: wasn't doing much with it. And you know, we kind 719 00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:10,640 Speaker 2: of go back to that question. You know, what is 720 00:37:10,719 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 2: considered effective grappling. Is it the control of Bautista or 721 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 2: is it the anti takedown game of Josi Aldo. So 722 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: you know, I think when you look at where Aldo, 723 00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 2: and we've talked about this on the last show, where 724 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,319 Speaker 2: he's been susceptible, it's exactly what Bautista tried to do 725 00:37:26,360 --> 00:37:28,880 Speaker 2: to him. So I thought it was a well executed 726 00:37:28,920 --> 00:37:30,239 Speaker 2: game plan either way. 727 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,720 Speaker 3: Even at times Andre Pedneris was saying in the corner, 728 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 3: I don't want you just sort of stalling up against 729 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:37,520 Speaker 3: the fence, and I did think Aldo could have been 730 00:37:37,600 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 3: more urgent in those situations. 731 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:39,680 Speaker 4: But you're right. 732 00:37:39,719 --> 00:37:42,880 Speaker 3: It comes back to the conversation about effective grappling and 733 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 3: effective aggression, even if you're going to go to that condition, right, Certainly, 734 00:37:47,480 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 3: I think a lot of the visuals for Mario Bautista 735 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,919 Speaker 3: were good perpetual offense, trying to do things, and yeah, 736 00:37:53,960 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 3: I just think not necessarily disrupting the rhythm of Aldo, 737 00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 3: but presenting sort of just a bunch of shit in 738 00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 3: your face all the time that clock kind of gets 739 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,640 Speaker 3: away from you. But you're right, Kenny, like there wasn't. 740 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 3: It's a close fight, man. 741 00:38:07,600 --> 00:38:11,440 Speaker 2: You know, And to your point, man, you know, a 742 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:14,239 Speaker 2: lot of it has to do with gamesmanship, right. It's like, 743 00:38:14,719 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 2: you know, if you're tired, but you don't act like 744 00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 2: you're tired, then that looks more impressive. I'm not saying 745 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:22,839 Speaker 2: that was the case of the way. I'm just giving 746 00:38:22,840 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 2: an example of what the judges may or may not 747 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 2: be looking for, what could influence their decision a certain way. 748 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:32,680 Speaker 2: If I look lethargic or tired as I'm moving around 749 00:38:32,719 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 2: the cage, but I'm still outstriking you, that still may 750 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: not be a good look. So I think there were 751 00:38:38,120 --> 00:38:41,040 Speaker 2: times where Aldo could have been more active, where he 752 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 2: could have shown a little bit more I don't know, 753 00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:48,719 Speaker 2: pizazz or energy at times, and you know, maybe he's 754 00:38:48,719 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 2: going to be kicking himself after this, But it was 755 00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:53,400 Speaker 2: like the same situation with the Morob fight, you know, 756 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:56,840 Speaker 2: Like so you know, with all of that experience and 757 00:38:56,920 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 2: as good as Aldo is, I think that for me, 758 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:02,359 Speaker 2: when I see him fight, I'm always wanting to see more. 759 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:04,960 Speaker 2: I'm seeing an Aldo that's a little bit slower than 760 00:39:04,960 --> 00:39:08,279 Speaker 2: he was before. He uses his reaction time somewhere now 761 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: Anderson Silva used to back in the day for defensive purposes, 762 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 2: and it's not as quick, so he's getting hit with 763 00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 2: a little bit more shot. So anyways, although is still 764 00:39:17,000 --> 00:39:20,640 Speaker 2: a stud, I thought he won, it was super close. 765 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 2: Bautista's a stud as well, and I think that's gonna 766 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: be another one where although when he goes back and 767 00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:29,080 Speaker 2: watches that, whether he thought he won or lost, he's 768 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:30,719 Speaker 2: going to be kind of kicking himself a little bit 769 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 2: hopefu yeah, or wishing that he did a little. 770 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 4: Bit more great analysis. 771 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:38,439 Speaker 3: Honestly, I love the Anderson Silva defensive comparison. But you're right, 772 00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 3: I do believe Jose Aldo maybe has lost a little 773 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 3: bit of that speed. Right. 774 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 775 00:39:44,560 --> 00:39:46,839 Speaker 3: When I try to suggest to Domina Cruz that he's 776 00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 3: a sco slower than he used to be, he wants 777 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,760 Speaker 3: to fucking kill me. But I'm watching wonder Boy Thompson 778 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,920 Speaker 3: tonight at forty forty one years a dude, he is 779 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 3: still just as fast. He's like getting faster. I think, 780 00:39:58,160 --> 00:39:59,520 Speaker 3: even though he lost the fight, We'll get to that 781 00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 3: in a little bit. So I'm happy for Mario Bautista. 782 00:40:02,960 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 3: I'm happy for the MMA lab. They do so many 783 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 3: things the right way. And you know how much I 784 00:40:09,040 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 3: love Jose Aldo. Of course I get starstruck around the guy. 785 00:40:12,000 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 3: I can barely even speak in front of him. But 786 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 3: I would have felt really disappointed if Mario Bautista's six 787 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:21,440 Speaker 3: fight winning streak went by the boards tonight, because I 788 00:40:21,560 --> 00:40:23,279 Speaker 3: just I don't know, man. I just didn't think Jose 789 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,760 Speaker 3: Aldo got it up done in the fight, even if 790 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 3: some of Bautista's work appeared to be stalling to some 791 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 3: people and it looked like maybe Connor McGregor Cody sent 792 00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:36,799 Speaker 3: it to me, tweeted that Bautista acknowledged the stalling even 793 00:40:36,800 --> 00:40:38,680 Speaker 3: in his post fight interview with Joe Rogan. My head 794 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 3: spinning right now, I'm getting traffic. I didn't necessarily pick 795 00:40:41,200 --> 00:40:45,200 Speaker 3: up on that, but Boutista zero for ten on his 796 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:50,200 Speaker 3: takedowns against Joseeldo. But again, you know, chewing up clock 797 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:53,959 Speaker 3: as you're trying to wrestle and preventing Jose from from 798 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:58,840 Speaker 3: striking right. The middle eight main card opener Kenny between 799 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,840 Speaker 3: Kevin Holland and Rome and de Leeds ended unceremoniously with 800 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:04,319 Speaker 3: the rib injury I just said on the post fight 801 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 3: show after a DraftKings shoot a few years ago, Daniel 802 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:09,640 Speaker 3: Cormier came up behind me and he picked me up 803 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:13,440 Speaker 3: by my chest, tore my rib cartilage, and yeah, I 804 00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 3: felt it for the next eight months. So respect to 805 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 3: Kevin Holland, I feel like it's a tough navigation for 806 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:23,360 Speaker 3: the coach, Bob Perez, in how to navigate that situation 807 00:41:23,800 --> 00:41:27,960 Speaker 3: in trying to support your athlete but also not make 808 00:41:28,080 --> 00:41:29,240 Speaker 3: him make the decision. 809 00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:32,480 Speaker 4: So what do you have for us on that that. 810 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:35,840 Speaker 2: Pudgy guy's pretty damn strong. How that Daniel Cormier I 811 00:41:35,840 --> 00:41:38,480 Speaker 2: remember locking up with him and I could not believe 812 00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 2: how how weak and meager I felt locking up with 813 00:41:43,200 --> 00:41:47,279 Speaker 2: that dude. Anyways, Yeah, rib injury suck, Okay, I've had 814 00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,160 Speaker 2: it many times, the rib cartilage thing. My brother Keith 815 00:41:50,320 --> 00:41:53,720 Speaker 2: just getting over broken ribs from a couple months ago, 816 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,319 Speaker 2: and it's brutal, man. It is extremely painful, and the 817 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 2: problem is is that it's linked to everything, so wherever 818 00:42:00,520 --> 00:42:04,000 Speaker 2: you go, any movement you make, you're in trouble. So 819 00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 2: I think in the end it was the right move 820 00:42:05,800 --> 00:42:09,560 Speaker 2: to make. Dulite obviously had Holland in a lot of trouble. 821 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 2: Whether that, I think it happened right after the rib injury, 822 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:15,520 Speaker 2: so you know, I don't think it would have gone 823 00:42:16,040 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 2: any better for him, So I think it was the 824 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 2: right call. Unfortunate there for Kevin Holland. 825 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:22,839 Speaker 3: Who was doing looking great on the feet there and 826 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 3: Roman Deledze just continuing to get it done in his 827 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 3: UFC career by any means necessary. But I do believe 828 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:30,439 Speaker 3: if like Kevin Holland's shoulder popped out, he'd be trying 829 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,359 Speaker 3: to put that thing back in and fight. The rib 830 00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:35,359 Speaker 3: is just a unique thing and nothing to mess with 831 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 3: nor fight through. New Manta Joaquin Buckley can flow, what 832 00:42:41,000 --> 00:42:42,920 Speaker 3: else can be said about this guy, and I think 833 00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:46,600 Speaker 3: my biggest takeaway is that down to nil hey, man 834 00:42:47,160 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 3: gotta go for. 835 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,240 Speaker 4: It, and he produces a fifty thousand dollars bonus. 836 00:42:50,280 --> 00:42:52,680 Speaker 3: It's fifth straight welterweight win since moving back to this 837 00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:58,319 Speaker 3: division and does to Stephen WonderBoy Thompson concussively, what I 838 00:42:58,360 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 3: haven't seen really anybody do to it? 839 00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, I mean Buckley. He has a gift. Man. 840 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:09,120 Speaker 2: His physicality is extremely impressive, and you know what he 841 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 2: lacked in technique, he made up for it with his power. 842 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 2: And man, wonder Boy was having quite the night. He 843 00:43:16,239 --> 00:43:19,799 Speaker 2: was looking phenomenal. He was turning back the clock and 844 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,239 Speaker 2: like you said, he looked fast as hell out there. 845 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:27,760 Speaker 2: Countering was just on point. His takedown defense was looking 846 00:43:27,800 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 2: pretty solid. He was getting back to his feet really well. 847 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,200 Speaker 2: And that could be extremely frustrating for a guy who 848 00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,279 Speaker 2: doesn't have that same level of experience as WonderBoy. It 849 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:40,839 Speaker 2: didn't matter. This was a more mature Buckley who kept 850 00:43:40,880 --> 00:43:44,680 Speaker 2: it together, who kept pressing and finally landed that big shot. 851 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,200 Speaker 2: WonderBoy was not in a very good defensive position, which 852 00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 2: was rare for him, but Buckley kept poking and landed 853 00:43:51,880 --> 00:43:53,040 Speaker 2: a big, big shot man. 854 00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:59,080 Speaker 3: So Joaquin Buckley was I'll stop sort of saying roundly criticized, 855 00:43:59,120 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 3: but a lot of people the lack of maybe a 856 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,680 Speaker 3: head coach, even though he has some standards and some 857 00:44:04,719 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 3: old reliables in his corner, right, But the impetus for 858 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,000 Speaker 3: him staying home in Saint Louis, Missouri is to be 859 00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 3: around his kids and his family, right. And it seems 860 00:44:14,120 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 3: though did the child hall and focused and stayed in 861 00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,480 Speaker 3: you know, like when Odds Shark recently asked me to 862 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 3: come up with like an NFL football team of UFC players, 863 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 3: Joaquing Buckley was my running back. Like there's something undeniable 864 00:44:39,640 --> 00:44:42,719 Speaker 3: about the athleticism and the implicasan Ghana I maybe is 865 00:44:42,719 --> 00:44:45,799 Speaker 3: the most spectacular knockout in UFC history. And like tonight Man, 866 00:44:47,000 --> 00:44:50,160 Speaker 3: just insane to flatline wonder boy like that. So for 867 00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:52,520 Speaker 3: sure it'd be interesting to see him moving forward. I mean, 868 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 3: what do we think about what do we think about 869 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,319 Speaker 3: Woquing Buckley? I like the Kamara Usman call out, I mean, 870 00:44:58,400 --> 00:45:00,799 Speaker 3: what do you think? What's the ceiling? Can talk to me? 871 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 2: I think it was a huge, huge win and I 872 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:06,719 Speaker 2: think this is gonna be a big confidence builder for 873 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:09,279 Speaker 2: him as well. I think it's also gonna be a 874 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,840 Speaker 2: good thing for him to look at and go, Okay, technically, 875 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,000 Speaker 2: what do I need to do when I when I 876 00:45:14,040 --> 00:45:17,080 Speaker 2: do complete these takedowns to get better control on the ground, 877 00:45:17,120 --> 00:45:19,360 Speaker 2: what do I need to do to remove frames and 878 00:45:19,800 --> 00:45:22,320 Speaker 2: to kind of steer my guy away from the cage? 879 00:45:22,719 --> 00:45:25,800 Speaker 2: And once he starts working on that, whether it means 880 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:27,919 Speaker 2: he's got to go somewhere else for the time being 881 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,239 Speaker 2: for a quick camp as far as wrestling or jiu 882 00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 2: jitsu or bringing guys in for him, you know, now 883 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:36,120 Speaker 2: he's gonna get the big names. Now he's got to 884 00:45:36,160 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 2: step up. And I think that if he's able to 885 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 2: get better as you know, technically, I think you can 886 00:45:42,040 --> 00:45:43,879 Speaker 2: pose a lot of problems for a lot of people, man, 887 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 2: and not not a whole lot of guys are able 888 00:45:45,560 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 2: to do that against someone like Wonder Boys. 889 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:48,759 Speaker 3: He actually said he wanted to go to Charlotte, North 890 00:45:48,800 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 3: Carolina and stay at your house for like a week 891 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,200 Speaker 3: and help with your kids. I told him your back 892 00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,279 Speaker 3: was bad, so that was not gonna happen. But I'm 893 00:45:57,320 --> 00:46:01,160 Speaker 3: just really excited for new Man's because I think a 894 00:46:01,160 --> 00:46:03,040 Speaker 3: lot of people in the public eye are a little 895 00:46:03,040 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 3: bit misunderstood, and certainly I can relate to a forgettable 896 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,440 Speaker 3: utterance or two in my career, right. I mean, he 897 00:46:10,680 --> 00:46:15,640 Speaker 3: was definitely run through it for that wayward Connor McGregor 898 00:46:15,719 --> 00:46:18,279 Speaker 3: call out that none of us thought was the right 899 00:46:18,320 --> 00:46:21,360 Speaker 3: way to maximize the mic time. But I'm interested to 900 00:46:21,360 --> 00:46:23,719 Speaker 3: see walking Buckley, and I just think he has the 901 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,000 Speaker 3: chance to present a lot of different problems for a 902 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,839 Speaker 3: lot of different people. So a few other things I'd 903 00:46:28,840 --> 00:46:30,440 Speaker 3: like to get to on UFC three zero seven. And 904 00:46:30,480 --> 00:46:32,840 Speaker 3: thanks everybody for joining us at whatever hour it is, 905 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,760 Speaker 3: one thirty am here in Salt Lake City, Ken Flow 906 00:46:35,760 --> 00:46:39,000 Speaker 3: burning it at all ends in North Carolina three thirty 907 00:46:39,000 --> 00:46:41,280 Speaker 3: am where you are. And by the way, our hearts 908 00:46:41,320 --> 00:46:45,280 Speaker 3: go out to everybody who has dealt with those awful 909 00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,480 Speaker 3: mother nature circumstances in North Carolina. Pretty far from you, Kenny, 910 00:46:49,520 --> 00:46:52,240 Speaker 3: but my gosh, the horror huh. 911 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:54,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple hours away, man. But you know a 912 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:58,480 Speaker 2: lot of these mountain towns have been destroyed. Literally, They're 913 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:02,200 Speaker 2: going to have to resurvey these towns, John, where roads 914 00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 2: and mountains of where they used to be is completely changed. 915 00:47:07,080 --> 00:47:11,640 Speaker 2: Like backyards that have been collapsed. There are people that 916 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:16,080 Speaker 2: are going to be dealing with this for months, man, 917 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:18,759 Speaker 2: and just you know the stories I've heard, John, It's 918 00:47:18,800 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 2: it's horrible. It's really really sad. A lot of people 919 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 2: lost their lives. A lot of people's you know, lives 920 00:47:26,680 --> 00:47:28,440 Speaker 2: are never going to be the same even if they 921 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,320 Speaker 2: did survive it. And you know, we've been doing everything possible, 922 00:47:31,400 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 2: try to get a lot of supplies up to them 923 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 2: and doing whatever we can to help. And I wish 924 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 2: I could do more, but man, it's it's been a 925 00:47:39,160 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 2: crazy week. 926 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 3: Well, I appreciate you sharing that. You know, sometimes you 927 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 3: get sort of caught up in this work bubble and 928 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:50,200 Speaker 3: you feel like nothing matters more than a UFC live event, 929 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 3: and then you see everything that's going on. It's absolutely horrifying. 930 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:56,280 Speaker 3: But our hearts go out to those people to be sure. 931 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:58,279 Speaker 3: So a few other things I want to get to. 932 00:47:58,320 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 3: We will have another episode later this week. We will 933 00:48:00,640 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 3: give you our predictions and a preview of UFC Fight 934 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:06,960 Speaker 3: Night Roy Vall versus Tyra Flyweight main event coming up 935 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 3: the Apex here Saturday night. But a lot of different 936 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:12,880 Speaker 3: storylines here. Just to sort of close the book on 937 00:48:12,960 --> 00:48:17,160 Speaker 3: three to ZH seven. So Carla Asparza, right, And oftentimes 938 00:48:17,200 --> 00:48:19,799 Speaker 3: I've wondered, and yeah, I guess the UFC Hall of 939 00:48:19,840 --> 00:48:22,480 Speaker 3: Fame right now maybe has a one man voting body 940 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 3: that is Dana White and who knows what type of 941 00:48:25,800 --> 00:48:28,439 Speaker 3: you know, feedback he lets in. But sometimes I've wondered 942 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:30,959 Speaker 3: to allow, like, when does the Hall of Fame come 943 00:48:31,040 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 3: calling for Hafayel Dosanjos, When does the Hall of Fame 944 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:38,040 Speaker 3: come calling for Carla Asparza. You know, thug Rose nama 945 00:48:38,080 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 3: Unis is getting in pretty quickly after she retires, right, 946 00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:44,040 Speaker 3: but Carla beat her twice, beat everybody else. Right. 947 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:46,640 Speaker 4: What do you think. 948 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:50,480 Speaker 3: This moment forgetting the Hall of Fame for a second 949 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,440 Speaker 3: does for Carla Asparza going off into retirement, a fighter 950 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:57,400 Speaker 3: who dealt with criticism and booze even after winning championship fights. 951 00:48:57,800 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 3: To be able to go out like this with a 952 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 3: crowd showering her with adulation after a loss, I feel 953 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,880 Speaker 3: like this night probably felt better in some of her wins. 954 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:12,400 Speaker 2: Right. Well, Listen, Esparsea has been one of those competitors 955 00:49:12,400 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 2: that has been that has been very quiet in her approach. 956 00:49:16,200 --> 00:49:20,520 Speaker 2: She's been one of the hardest workers out there. She 957 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,640 Speaker 2: has been extremely consistent in her approach. She're talking about 958 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:30,520 Speaker 2: a former champion in the UFC, and you know, her 959 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:34,920 Speaker 2: style is one that you know. Okay, maybe people aren't, 960 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:38,200 Speaker 2: you know, buying pay per views to see her fighter 961 00:49:38,320 --> 00:49:41,399 Speaker 2: her style, but at the end of the day, as 962 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 2: a competitor, why you should admire her, whether you're an 963 00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:48,560 Speaker 2: athlete or not, is she gets it done. She finds 964 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,279 Speaker 2: a way to win. She works her ass off, she's 965 00:49:51,360 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 2: never disrespectful, she's always classier and approach and even even 966 00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 2: in a fight that she potentially won tonight, right just 967 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,360 Speaker 2: you know, not a lot of people can keep it 968 00:50:01,360 --> 00:50:04,640 Speaker 2: together like that. So she deserves big time kudos. 969 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:07,440 Speaker 3: Man and she asked to take a picture with the 970 00:50:07,480 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 3: broadcast team after the fighter. Mah god, I love you 971 00:50:10,239 --> 00:50:12,480 Speaker 3: Carlos and I love t Sha Pennington too. Out of 972 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 3: Fall River, Massachusetts.
