Two dead serious. Watching Max laid out 45 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 4: like that bothered me a lot more than I thought it. 46 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, watching Robert Whitiker tap in a half second bothered 47 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 1: me a lot.

In fact, Luke Thomas, we already knew 178 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: Ilia obviously had the potential to be great, if not 179 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: break through our TV screens as the next face of 180 00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:45,120 Speaker 1: the UFC. But after becoming the first fighter to not 181 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: only knock down how about knockout Max Holloway does the 182 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 1: MMA world? Oh, Luke Thomas, I don't know an apology 183 00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: at this way. That's what I wrote in it. What 184 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,600 Speaker 1: say you, Luke? Because I've seen you've gone on Instagram. 185 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: I feel like you're using this victory by Ilia to 186 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,680 Speaker 1: write a lifetime of wrongs that people have done to you. 187 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:07,840 Speaker 4: So I do hear that echo? 188 00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 5: If there's anything that could be done about that, it 189 00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 5: is detectable. 190 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 4: You hear it too, right? 191 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: Is there are their headphones on the ground there? 192 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, but the volumes they're off. It shouldn't it shouldn't be. 193 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 4: I don't. 194 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 5: I don't quite know what it is. 195 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 4: I mean, here's the thing, right, and I saw some 196 00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 4: people like replying, well, Ilia was favored to win, not 197 00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 4: like super significantly, but it was. I think it was 198 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,520 Speaker 4: a minus two hundred or so to win. So it's 199 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 4: not like picking him as you're picking the favorite. But 200 00:08:31,520 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 4: you'll recall on April fifteenth, when we did that morning 201 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,880 Speaker 4: combat in this very studio. This was just off the 202 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:39,800 Speaker 4: heels of UFC three hundred. What I had argued was, 203 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 4: it doesn't matter who fights Ilia to Poria next. It's 204 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: the wrong time to fight him, and we all love Max. 205 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 4: And again, watching Max kind of stretch it out like 206 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 4: that was terrible. 207 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 5: But this is what I mean. This is the guy 208 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 5: of the moment. 209 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 4: He's arguably I don't know if he's pump pound number one, 210 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 4: but he's probably no worse than two at this point 211 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:58,720 Speaker 4: given what he did in twenty twenty four. We'll talk 212 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 4: about it later. I clearly believe I think you're a 213 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 4: fucking rube. If you think anyone other. 214 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,959 Speaker 1: Than it's a debate. 215 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:08,640 Speaker 4: Okay, if you go back in April fifteenth, yes, by 216 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,400 Speaker 4: now I think it dawned on people more so that 217 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 4: Eliot was very good. But I made this declaration back 218 00:09:14,840 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 4: in April following UFC three hundred because as good as 219 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 4: Max is, this is the time of Ilia to Poria. 220 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,599 Speaker 4: He's by far the best featherweight that we have. He 221 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,880 Speaker 4: might again he is on the precipice of becoming pound 222 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:28,760 Speaker 4: for pound number one in the sport if he's not 223 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:30,839 Speaker 4: already there. And they give If you go back to 224 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:34,520 Speaker 4: the comments on ig Brian Campbell, they're all like, Luke sucks, 225 00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 4: he doesn't know anything. This take is gonna age like 226 00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,560 Speaker 4: milk the whole nine yards. I went one by fucking wow, 227 00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:43,040 Speaker 4: and I was like, how'd you like my prediction? 228 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 5: Now? 229 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, fucking like Steve Boussemi and Billy Madison just one 230 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:47,280 Speaker 1: by one. 231 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,120 Speaker 4: Showing up Like according to a movie poop shoot dot com, 232 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 4: it says that you didn't like this. That's what it was. 233 00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:54,679 Speaker 4: There is this This is the point I want to 234 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 4: make about Ilia. It was obvious that he was good, right, 235 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 4: everyone could kind of see that he was good. There 236 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 4: was denial about how good he was because of some 237 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 4: of the legitimate questions about Max's durability. 238 00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,760 Speaker 1: Excuse me about about Volkanovsky. 239 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,240 Speaker 4: Abu volks durability because he went out so easily. But 240 00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 4: the point I tried to make was it didn't matter 241 00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 4: that he came back that quickly. Obviously it didn't help him, 242 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 4: But no one is going to stand up to his 243 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:24,760 Speaker 4: punching power, his accuracy, and his ability to find the target. 244 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 4: He could have taken three months, six months, nine months, 245 00:10:27,200 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 4: three years, six years, nine years, It didn't matter. You 246 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,840 Speaker 4: can see if somebody has the power and the ability, 247 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 4: because it's not just power, the ability to put Max 248 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,080 Speaker 4: Holloway's lights out. Yolkonowsky doesn't have a prayer. I saw 249 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 4: that he was this talented a while ago. I am 250 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 4: glad it has now dawned on the rest of some 251 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,199 Speaker 4: of these Jabronis who are a little bit late to 252 00:10:49,280 --> 00:10:51,200 Speaker 4: the party. Welcome the waters one. 253 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: Well, okay, I mean, let's let's let's put a let's 254 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: put a fence. Let's put a limit on the amount 255 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,160 Speaker 1: that you can bathe in your own urine here and 256 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,679 Speaker 1: celebrate urine, because you know, you think, just because people 257 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 1: didn't think that to Puria would knock out Holloway, that 258 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 1: they don't think to Puria is a great fight. 259 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 4: I don't think you would knock out on that either. 260 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,800 Speaker 4: I thought I said he would beat no. 261 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: But your reaction is saying that, so let me speak 262 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 1: for the mob out there that is just eating scoops 263 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: a humble pie and say, let's not take it too far. 264 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,439 Speaker 1: But I think it's the old Larry Merchant quote that 265 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: I love to use that he said at the end 266 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: of Manny Packiel versus Miguel Coto that rings the most 267 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,240 Speaker 1: truth here. We knew to Puria had the potential to 268 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,640 Speaker 1: be great. He's better than we thought. That's what we 269 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: saw against Holloway because those were two I mean, look, 270 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,959 Speaker 1: Max Holloway fought his ass off in rounds one and two. 271 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 1: I didn't think the judges properly fully reflected that it 272 00:11:39,240 --> 00:11:41,360 Speaker 1: may have been that flash knockdown that at the end 273 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 1: of round one that upon replay was a slip. They 274 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:45,400 Speaker 1: may have ruled that a knockdown. Maybe that's why two 275 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,199 Speaker 1: of the three judges gave Elia that first round. But 276 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,680 Speaker 1: no matter how you sliced it, Max was in that fight, 277 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,480 Speaker 1: landing big shots. In fact, there was a point the 278 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 1: start around three that I was like, man, this is 279 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 1: as beautiful a high speed chess duel of elite striking 280 00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:02,440 Speaker 1: town that I've seen a long time. Craft versus craft. 281 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:05,640 Speaker 1: That was great stuff. But Ilia didn't just blow open 282 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,839 Speaker 1: that you know, fight that was on pace to be 283 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: you know, maybe a contender for fight of the year, 284 00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 1: just in how it was playing out, the genius of 285 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,880 Speaker 1: at the speed and look he busted through that right 286 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: cross that hit Max right in the nose as a 287 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,559 Speaker 1: knockout punch and would ruin you know, ninety percent of 288 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: active fighters. But the way that he chased him down 289 00:12:22,679 --> 00:12:26,400 Speaker 1: and then looped in that left hook above the guard. Yes, 290 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: all the things you said about. 291 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 4: Him were true. 292 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:29,679 Speaker 1: I think for a lot of us, we had to 293 00:12:29,760 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 1: see it again. We had to see it without the 294 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: potential of asterisks of maybe did Volkanovsky come back too 295 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: quick after being head kicked Kot and we had to 296 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 1: see it against Max. Look at what he did. Holy shit, 297 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 1: you were right. Any feelings people had watching him were right. 298 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:45,839 Speaker 1: And I think the more I learned about him in 299 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 1: the deep dive I did ahead of this, and Max 300 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:50,480 Speaker 1: even said it himself afterwards when they said, look, you 301 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:52,120 Speaker 1: you know you're good with Ilia, and He's like, oh, 302 00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: I love him, I respect him. It was a lot 303 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 1: of theater to play up this fight, to make it 304 00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 1: bigger that we saw some trash talk back and forth, 305 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 1: But Ilia is not only the craft and I had 306 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,800 Speaker 1: the cage seems like a class person outside of it, 307 00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:06,960 Speaker 1: and seems like he really takes you know, the humility 308 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 1: side with family and all of that super serious and 309 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 1: the amount of effort and care. Look, I mean you 310 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: saw that close up they did leading in with his house, 311 00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 1: and that all the stuff he has in those white 312 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: coat doctors and the next level that he prepares. I mean, 313 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:23,120 Speaker 1: this guy is absolutely Luke the real deal, and there 314 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: can never be doubt anymore after this twenty twenty four 315 00:13:25,880 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: years so like, holy shit, and it wasn't just me 316 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:30,439 Speaker 1: reacting this way long than Look, can we throw it 317 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:35,679 Speaker 1: to the cage side reaction. This is Volkanovsky, Morob, Kyle 318 00:13:35,840 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: barralyyo ohayo shot. You know this is Alex thinking I 319 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:45,360 Speaker 1: might be next? Oh do I want that next? That's 320 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,119 Speaker 1: the question. 321 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 4: Every fund dude. 322 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 5: He's everywhere. Yeah. 323 00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: I mean, first of all, do you remember when Max 324 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 4: beat Justin and Iliot was k sided and everyone pretended 325 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:07,360 Speaker 4: that Ilio was scared? The most bullshit overreaction that ever 326 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 4: lived on the internet.

Everyone goes after me, and then 333 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 4: when I get proven wrong, they all jump on me. 334 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,120 Speaker 4: When I get proven right, they do this fucking bullshit 335 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 4: game where it's like, dude, it's like five people. Shut 336 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:30,440 Speaker 4: the fuck up. 337 00:14:30,880 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: It was he's talking to too cheesy right now. 338 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,240 Speaker 4: I don't want to get stand by too cheesy. No, 339 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 4: there's people coming out of the woodwork too, And I 340 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 4: understand it. 341 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 5: I understand it. 342 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 4: There was for people who may not have been as 343 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,840 Speaker 4: invested in like who's the next big guy? They weren't 344 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 4: maybe paying his close attention obviously. There again, there were 345 00:14:48,840 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 4: some questions about is this the best volk who had 346 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 4: to offer in terms of resistance both physical and then 347 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 4: whatever mental difficulties there may have been from being recently 348 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 4: chaotunderstand I understand that. I understand that, but it was 349 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 4: over the top. However, I want to question one thing. 350 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 4: I don't know if he's a good, humble family guy 351 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,240 Speaker 4: or not. Eliot Toporri, you had mentioned that Max is 352 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 4: that he does this stuff for you guys, which is 353 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 4: most certainly true. This kind of shit talking thing that 354 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 4: that fighters get forced into to build a career, that 355 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 4: is obviously true. I have no idea, but I'm gonna 356 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 4: make the same point after the fight that I made 357 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 4: before the fight, which is, I don't know what kind 358 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 4: of person he is. He might be a milkshake duck. 359 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 4: He might be somebody who is good or terrible. I 360 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:28,400 Speaker 4: don't know Max. 361 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:30,680 Speaker 1: He might say the N word at the mic at MSG. 362 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:34,520 Speaker 5: I don't know who he is. 363 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 4: But in terms of what he offers in the cage, 364 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:39,800 Speaker 4: it has been very clear to me for a long time. 365 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:43,240 Speaker 4: He's fucking awesome. He's awesome. And again I didn't think 366 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 4: he'd put Max's lights out, but I did think he 367 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 4: would beat him, and I thought that would be the 368 00:15:46,640 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 4: thing that finally got people to say we have to 369 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 4: stop denying him. Also, I'd like to make one more point. 370 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 4: If I'm a he will be like, oh, he fought 371 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,160 Speaker 4: an old Max. He fought an old Volkanowski. Once again, 372 00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 4: shut your hohoror mouth, shut. 373 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: Your horror mouth. All right, what are we doing? 374 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 4: He did not fight in old Volkanofsky. He did not 375 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 4: fight a guy who was well past his prime in 376 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,800 Speaker 4: Max Holloway. He took the belt off of Volkanovsky. And 377 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:15,240 Speaker 4: again we have to resurgent Max Holloway here, who just 378 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:16,920 Speaker 4: had the win of his maybe not the win of 379 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:18,160 Speaker 4: his career, but one of the best wins of his 380 00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: career just before this up aweight class. What he probably 381 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:25,160 Speaker 4: has done is initiated their decline. That's a big difference 382 00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,240 Speaker 4: versus getting someone who's already on the decline being the 383 00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,040 Speaker 4: guy that tipped him over to send them into decline. 384 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 4: It's two different things that happened there. You gotta watch 385 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 4: fight sports long enough to know the difference. 386 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 1: Suck it, bitches, whoa, it's to me, Mari y'all. 387 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 11: It's to me. 388 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 12: That sound like jar jar binks, don't I Oh shit, 389 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 12: Oh shit, it's my day. It's my fucking day. 390 00:16:55,280 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 1: Forget about the mileage. Not only is Max thirty two still, 391 00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:01,240 Speaker 1: he was one of the top ten pound for pound 392 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: fighters coming in. That's what made this matchup so special, 393 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,480 Speaker 1: and fought his ass off again over those first two rounds, 394 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 1: so we were shocked. Volcal shocked. Sitting sideline, I want 395 00:17:10,560 --> 00:17:13,200 Speaker 1: you to watch this take from Dustin Poorier. He was 396 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:14,720 Speaker 1: just as shocked on the UFC desk. 397 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 4: So you've been in there with Max twice, you got 398 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 4: to be impressed. Though, with the still undefeated Iliotsaporte. 399 00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 13: I am more than impressed. I'm blown away, man. Not 400 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 13: that I didn't think it could happen. Of course it 401 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 13: could happen to Poria is an incredible boxer, big power, 402 00:17:29,200 --> 00:17:31,200 Speaker 13: sits down on all his punches, great technique. I just 403 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:34,320 Speaker 13: didn't think it would happen. Just look at you saw 404 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 13: him standing in the octagon with with that rose in 405 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,120 Speaker 13: his hand. Now it's time to give him his flowers 406 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:41,480 Speaker 13: because he is everything he said he was. He said 407 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,040 Speaker 13: what he's going to do, and he went out there 408 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 13: and he did it. He knocked out first man in 409 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 13: the world to knock out a legend in Max Holloway, 410 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 13: one of the best forty five pound fighters that's ever 411 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:51,360 Speaker 13: walked the earth. 412 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: Now, Luke, I think to bring up what we were 413 00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 1: talking about earlier, I think this lifts to Puria as 414 00:17:57,080 --> 00:17:59,440 Speaker 1: the favorite for Fighter of the Year, and I think 415 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: he will end up winning Fighter of the Year. But 416 00:18:02,560 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: I do want to say, even as incredible as these 417 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: two victories were to put him in this spot, It's 418 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:11,119 Speaker 1: not a slam dunk to me because Pereira did defend 419 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: the title three times, twice against former champions, all three 420 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: by finish in a one hundred and seventy five days 421 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 1: fan So I'm not going to discount that. But yes, 422 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,480 Speaker 1: I do believe this puts Topouria in the driver's seat. 423 00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:23,879 Speaker 1: This was as big of a breakout year. I mean, 424 00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: you'd beat two guys in the top ten for pomp 425 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 1: for pound, both by vicious Ko in the same year. 426 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: That's huge. But what about that other thing that we 427 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: touched on? Would it be acceptable? And I'm gonna do 428 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 1: mine right after the show on the train home for 429 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: CBS Sports my top ten pound for pound? Would it 430 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:42,880 Speaker 1: legitimately be acceptable to have iliot to Poria as pound 431 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:46,320 Speaker 1: for pound number one? Considering Islam Mahachev. John Jones is 432 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: going to be the last guy in that room. We 433 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 1: already knew that and Pereira in that mix. Could you 434 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:53,600 Speaker 1: see Duporia gaining votes for number one pound for pound. 435 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 4: For By the way, someone's got to tell Matt Ryle 436 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:56,800 Speaker 4: he doesn't get the captions right on the tweets. 437 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:57,439 Speaker 5: He fucked it up. 438 00:18:57,560 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 4: But okay, that's an off camera, car I want to 439 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 4: kill him on the air, And that's actually why I 440 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:03,920 Speaker 4: said it, shouts to Matt Ryle, who can't listen. 441 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 5: Okay, can we back up a point? Do you want 442 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:08,879 Speaker 5: to get into Fighter of the Year now? 443 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 4: I think we just I think we just nailed the 444 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,000 Speaker 4: We didn't We need to We need to have a conversa. 445 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,240 Speaker 1: We're gonna have that conversation ad nauseamen December. But what 446 00:19:17,280 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: do you got to say about it? 447 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:19,600 Speaker 4: Go ahead? A couple of things I think are really 448 00:19:19,640 --> 00:19:22,080 Speaker 4: important to describe and understand. Let me ask you a 449 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 4: question very simply, and we don't know the answer to this, 450 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 4: but what does your gut tell you could somebody do 451 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,359 Speaker 4: could somebody back to back beat Ilia? 452 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 5: Excuse me? 453 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,520 Speaker 4: Could somebody back to back beat Volk and Max coming 454 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 4: in on short notice? Could even Iliya to Poria do it? 455 00:19:37,720 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 4: Coming in on short notice? I seriously have my doubts 456 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:42,119 Speaker 4: that anybody could do that. I don't think you can 457 00:19:42,200 --> 00:19:43,680 Speaker 4: actually do that. That's the first thing I just want 458 00:19:43,680 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 4: people to start thinking about. But more to the point, 459 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 4: people need to understand strength of schedule matters. What poetn 460 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 4: did is I mean, there's no denying what he did 461 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,199 Speaker 4: is extremely impressive. We're talking about the upper elite here, right, 462 00:19:56,320 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 4: so we're parsaying whose elite was better, not is one 463 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,640 Speaker 4: guy good and one guy bad. But what makes Poeton 464 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:05,760 Speaker 4: close to the top of the list is that he 465 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:09,399 Speaker 4: beat more guys, he beat three, and he did it 466 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 4: on short notice essentially in a couple of those instances. 467 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:16,159 Speaker 4: But the problem is this again, I don't think anyone 468 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 4: Illiot's Aportia included could beat Max and Vulk on short notice. 469 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 4: I just don't believe that that's actually possible. But the 470 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 4: bigger point is those guys like Dude YERI prohatch guy. 471 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:26,879 Speaker 5: I know, we love him. 472 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,080 Speaker 4: He doesn't use defense. 473 00:20:28,880 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 5: The quality of a win. 474 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 4: When you beat a pound four pound guy like Max 475 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:36,200 Speaker 4: Holloway and a pound four pound guy like Vulk, that 476 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 4: is infinitely more difficult than yes, beating good fighters on 477 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 4: difficult circumstances. That's ultimately what you're arguing for Poeton. He 478 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 4: didn't beat as good a fighter, he beat a lesser 479 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:51,320 Speaker 4: quality of fighter, but on a very difficult circumstances. 480 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,280 Speaker 1: Been sure of the greatest calendar years I've ever seen 481 00:20:53,359 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: going head to head. I mean it's insane, that's right. 482 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 4: So, But the point I want to make is, at 483 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 4: the end of the day, somebody could go in there 484 00:20:59,400 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 4: and do And this is my hunch that you could 485 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,080 Speaker 4: go in there and obviously beat the guys that Poton 486 00:21:03,119 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 4: did on short notice. I don't think many people could 487 00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:07,320 Speaker 4: do that Pooton did. I just don't think it's flatly 488 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:10,440 Speaker 4: possible to take Max Holloway on short notice, and Kaohim, 489 00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 4: I don't think it's possible to take Volkanovsky on short notice, 490 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,440 Speaker 4: and Kaohm it simply cannot be done. It is a 491 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:20,200 Speaker 4: much more difficult task to accomplish what Ilia did, even 492 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,080 Speaker 4: if it's two wins versus three. 493 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: Let's be yeah, Ilia gets the nod in as close 494 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 1: a race I've seen since they screwed over out of 495 00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: Soignia in twenty nineteen. I agree with that, But what 496 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,119 Speaker 1: about this pound for pound top ten? As our sung guy, 497 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: Ken is going to come in and just get rid 498 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:35,680 Speaker 1: of that snap, crackle and pop that's going on. Look, 499 00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: I'm still gonna have Islam at number one spoiler alert, 500 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 1: But Luke, do you think it's I if I could 501 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: speak like too cheesy, would they get I mean, really, 502 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: I'm asking you, how big is your erection. How could 503 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:51,600 Speaker 1: could this man be number one right now based on that, 504 00:21:51,920 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: based on on this year, based on where we're at 505 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,760 Speaker 1: right now. Islam's not overly active, is he right now? 506 00:21:56,960 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 4: No, he's not, although he's not been in act. His 507 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:04,600 Speaker 4: year wasn't as good as Volks. So there's excuse me 508 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:08,000 Speaker 4: for Toporia. So there's that. I'm a little hesitant to 509 00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,520 Speaker 4: put him pound for pound number one. I still feel 510 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,640 Speaker 4: like the body of work over all for Islam has 511 00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 4: been a little bit better. This is just a little 512 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 4: bit more to it. I think Ilia needs to get 513 00:22:21,400 --> 00:22:24,480 Speaker 4: another win over a top contender or somebody else that 514 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,399 Speaker 4: the public would recognize as somebody else who is a 515 00:22:28,480 --> 00:22:31,000 Speaker 4: credible challenge and or a somebody on that pound for 516 00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:32,080 Speaker 4: pound list in. 517 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 5: Order for that to really happen. But I'll say this, 518 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:34,679 Speaker 5: he's number two. 519 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:38,000 Speaker 1: This is going to speed up UFC getting into Spain. 520 00:22:38,080 --> 00:22:40,119 Speaker 1: Before the fight, Dana said, we're looking at Barcelona and 521 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: Madrid and we want to be there at some point 522 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 1: in twenty five. Is Ilia Taporia's next fight on Spanish soil. 523 00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:49,280 Speaker 4: I don't know how it's not right, and other than 524 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,040 Speaker 4: if there's a logistical challenge, right, because they can't find 525 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,640 Speaker 4: the right venue. We've kind of discussed this before. I'm 526 00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:57,200 Speaker 4: not saying you couldn't take Ila Toporia to Spain, but 527 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,440 Speaker 4: it's a little It starts to do a Barcelona, but 528 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:01,640 Speaker 4: it's a little weird to do that. It's not quite 529 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 4: as straightforward as some folks might think, but I do 530 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:08,200 Speaker 4: think it happens. And the basic reason is this. I 531 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 4: know that they wanted him to fight Vulcan at UFC 532 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:11,720 Speaker 4: three twelve. That's a hell of a turnaround. I mean, 533 00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,080 Speaker 4: it wasn't a super brutal fight, but I imagine he's 534 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 4: gonna want something. 535 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:17,399 Speaker 1: At his star love Lie. I'm not accepting that. 536 00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 4: Also, you have to fly to fucking Australia. 537 00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and like you said, I'm not going in his backyard. 538 00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:24,360 Speaker 4: Devin Haney did it against Cambosis because it made sense 539 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 4: at the. 540 00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 1: Time because the money was coming from Australian paper. 541 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 4: And the belts. The guy had the belts. You wanted 542 00:23:28,680 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 4: to go do that. There was a rematch clause. Okay, 543 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,719 Speaker 4: I understand that, but that none of those factors are 544 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,000 Speaker 4: really in play here. And it seems to me it's like, dude, 545 00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:39,119 Speaker 4: you've got a guy here, be very clear about it. 546 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,399 Speaker 4: This is the moment right now, Right now is the 547 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 4: moment to make good on the star potential of Ilia Taporia. 548 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: That's a perfect tease to get us into the next topic, 549 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 1: which we will in a second. But one more thing. 550 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:52,960 Speaker 1: Can you show the video of Toporia walking back with 551 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:54,879 Speaker 1: his lovely lady and the belts on his shoulder. I 552 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: mentioned I'm not seeing many missteps from Tuporia publicly except 553 00:23:58,440 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 1: for maybe that one. 554 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:00,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't like this all. 555 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: Dump that fake ass ww shit in the trash. Like 556 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,960 Speaker 1: I know, Dana said afterwards that Dana now regrets not 557 00:24:06,080 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 1: putting the BMF title online, and you definitely could have. 558 00:24:08,720 --> 00:24:11,720 Speaker 1: I feel I actually align with Dana's original statement. Real 559 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: title fights don't involve BMF. But I get the symbolism 560 00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 1: of what your boys trying to say by wearing that, 561 00:24:17,960 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: but it almost downgrades what was like one of the 562 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,520 Speaker 1: greatest breakthrough performances I've seen in a long time. 563 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:23,320 Speaker 5: I didn't like it at all. 564 00:24:23,760 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 4: Again, of all the missteps I've seen, this one to 565 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 4: me was very annoying. And I know he did say 566 00:24:29,520 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 4: nice things about Max Holloway after the fight, and I 567 00:24:31,560 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 4: genuinely believe he does understand Max Holloway is a legitimate, 568 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:38,920 Speaker 4: credentialed opponent of the highest order, but going and wearing 569 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 4: that belt like that when you just Kota guy to 570 00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:42,880 Speaker 4: me is very disrespectful to Max Holloway. 571 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 1: Also, you're above that, you're a champion. Now you should 572 00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,159 Speaker 1: be calling out the next champions, which he did and 573 00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: we'll get to But like f the BMF, you're the 574 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:50,200 Speaker 1: legitimate changer. 575 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:50,560 Speaker 4: I didn't. 576 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:52,200 Speaker 5: I didn't. I didn't agree with that. 577 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 4: I didn't. 578 00:24:53,040 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 5: It bothered me. 579 00:24:53,840 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: Actually, the idea though of maximizing the star power now 580 00:24:57,920 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: of a guy who could legitimately be the successor to 581 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: Connor McGregor and the lineage of sort of face of 582 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,920 Speaker 1: the franchise. Let's talk about topic number two, the idea 583 00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 1: of who should not only be next for Ilia but 584 00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 1: also for Max. We'll get to that. But although Dana 585 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: White appears to be dead set on booking Alexander Volkanowski 586 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:17,080 Speaker 1: next in the title rematch for to pour In, we'll 587 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: get to the why in a second. Luke, the question 588 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:21,000 Speaker 1: I was going to ask you, is is it time 589 00:25:21,080 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: for UFC Brass to think bigger for Ilia about his 590 00:25:24,160 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: next fight? Considering everything I said about the next star. 591 00:25:27,520 --> 00:25:30,880 Speaker 1: And consider this in this modern era of UFC, where 592 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 1: the financial focus is different, and people can argue that's 593 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,480 Speaker 1: why we don't see as many crossover stars anymore. Luke, 594 00:25:36,520 --> 00:25:38,119 Speaker 1: He's not only the one that breaks that mold, but 595 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,000 Speaker 1: he breaks the mold because he can advance into markets 596 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:42,840 Speaker 1: that they that they want to get in badly, like 597 00:25:42,960 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 1: Spain that they've never been before, maybe even Georgia. If 598 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 1: we keep seeing more great Georgian fighters break out of there, 599 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:51,119 Speaker 1: is it time now to look beyond the featherweight division, 600 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:54,120 Speaker 1: even though he's only one title defense in given, we've 601 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: got something close to another Connor. I mean, I'm not 602 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: comparing the numbers. I'm just saying we've got a spark 603 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,639 Speaker 1: that is as fresh and real as any star on 604 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:02,680 Speaker 1: the rise we've seen in a long time. 605 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,480 Speaker 4: And I'll tell you I don't even I mean, the 606 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:09,000 Speaker 4: Connor comparisons are inevitable. It's one forty five. He did 607 00:26:09,040 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 4: the belt snatching, The tattoos look similar, like. I get 608 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 4: the Connor comparisons. And even though one I'm about to 609 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 4: say doesn't really make sense because of some other issues 610 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 4: that Ilia has had, but to me, the way in 611 00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 4: which he mowed through the top of one forty five 612 00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 4: the way he did BC. It's much more John Jones 613 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:28,120 Speaker 4: than anything else. Connor never defended the one forty five 614 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,600 Speaker 4: belt was this was the title defense of ILIA and he, 615 00:26:32,359 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 4: by the way, knocked down Max Holloway first got to 616 00:26:35,400 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 4: do that and then knocked him out first got to 617 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:38,680 Speaker 4: do that. He did both of those achievements. You can't 618 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,680 Speaker 4: lose sight of that. I really disagree that this is 619 00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 4: more Connor. To me, it's a little Connor. 620 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: It's actually more well, it's more just because Connor was 621 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 1: the last so it's like this we're. 622 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:50,120 Speaker 4: Watching, I mean in terms of like what he's doing 623 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 4: to the division. Sure, it reminds me much more of 624 00:26:53,160 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 4: what Jones did on his rise. Now that being said, 625 00:26:57,119 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 4: I listen, there's no Dini gnaying that a Toporia versus 626 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 4: Islam fight is wanted by the fans. And the job 627 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:10,440 Speaker 4: of any promoter is quite basic, but sometimes difficult, but basic. Nonetheless, 628 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 4: put on fights that people want to pay money to see. 629 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 5: That's it. 630 00:27:14,040 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 4: That's why Netflix and MVP is putting on Jake Paul 631 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,080 Speaker 4: versus Mike Tyson. It's a stupid fight, but people want 632 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 4: to pay money to see it. And therefore it will 633 00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 4: get made for that reason. BC, you could make that fight, 634 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 4: and you could also make the case we already know 635 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,200 Speaker 4: that Taporia's power carries up to fifty five because of 636 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 4: the Jai Herbert fight. It's not difficult to make an 637 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 4: argument to say could Taporia win that? Does he have 638 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:37,760 Speaker 4: a legitimate chance at winning that? I think he does. 639 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 4: I think most people now at this point would say 640 00:27:39,800 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 4: he's a real threat to Islam. I don't want to 641 00:27:43,280 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 4: see that fight next. I really disagree with that for 642 00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 4: a couple of reasons. One, are we really going to 643 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:52,159 Speaker 4: have three super fights for Islam Makachev all be against 644 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 4: forty five ors? 645 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 1: That's a great point. 646 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 4: I mean that seems a little bit much to me. 647 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,919 Speaker 4: He had two Volkanovski fights now to Poria. If they 648 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,440 Speaker 4: make it seems much more. I would rather see if 649 00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 4: it happens Islam Makachev versus shot Cut Rockmanov. That to 650 00:28:05,840 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 4: me is a lot more fun. I don't know if 651 00:28:07,359 --> 00:28:08,280 Speaker 4: that fight makes sense either. 652 00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: You mean, provided chove Cup beats again, provided we get. 653 00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 5: To a place where shot Cut is the champion. 654 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,280 Speaker 4: So that's the first thing I'd say, I just how 655 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:18,200 Speaker 4: many times is he gonna fight forty five vers before 656 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,119 Speaker 4: we've had enough. Second, of all, guys, I think people 657 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 4: are very much discounting how tough the forty five contenders are. 658 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 4: We'll see what happens between most art I Loy and 659 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:32,000 Speaker 4: al Jamin Sterling. That might not be the sexiest fight 660 00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 4: whoever wins that one to get to Taporia, but that's 661 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:37,200 Speaker 4: a tough fight either way. Sure. More to the point, 662 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 4: you got Vulk waiting in the wings. More to the point, 663 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:43,560 Speaker 4: Diego Lopez has a date with Destiny too, And I 664 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,800 Speaker 4: don't think he's quite the fighter that Eliot Taporia is, 665 00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 4: but he doesn't have to be. He's dangerous as shit everywhere. 666 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: That to me, And he has two fan bases in 667 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,560 Speaker 1: a sense because he's Brazilian, but he fights out of 668 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:54,040 Speaker 1: it in representation. 669 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 4: Now, they can put that fight on any kind of 670 00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 4: Mexican holiday because they both speak Spanish. Obviously one's Brazilian 671 00:28:58,760 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 4: and lives in Mexico. 672 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 5: So with a semi adopted. 673 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 4: Ilias not I has been adopted too, well, they're not 674 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 4: gonna adopt the Spanish guy, but he is capable of 675 00:29:06,520 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 4: engaging with Latin American media in a way that can 676 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,880 Speaker 4: boost profiles that to me is the fight to make. 677 00:29:11,960 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 5: You could do the vocal one if you want to 678 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 5: do again. 679 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 4: I'm not really sure what the appetite is now that 680 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 4: you've seen what he can do to Max Holloway. But 681 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,120 Speaker 4: the idea that we're just gonna like fuck off on 682 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,720 Speaker 4: all these like really good featherweight contenders and frankly, let's 683 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 4: be clear, really good featherweight fights important fights, like when 684 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 4: you accept the belt. What you are saying is, I'm 685 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 4: going to give this next contender a shot at it. 686 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 4: By being active, I'm going to keep the division in motion. 687 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 4: And right now, b see, would you not agree? It's 688 00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 4: like it's all jumbled at the top. You got Max, 689 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 4: you got Lopez, you got again this semi ish number 690 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,720 Speaker 4: one contenders fight between Stirling and Vloye, and all of 691 00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 4: those guys are dangerous, all of those guys are good, 692 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 4: all of those fights are good. What is the rush exactly? 693 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:58,160 Speaker 1: Because it's rare to get somebody that's this red hot, 694 00:29:58,400 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 1: with this much buzz who can be potentially both things 695 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,520 Speaker 1: at once, your biggest face in the franchise, biggest pay 696 00:30:04,520 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: per view star, and your best fighter at the same time. 697 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: This is a spirit of something coming that we haven't 698 00:30:10,200 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 1: felt since Connor. And what did Connor do as soon 699 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,480 Speaker 1: as he knocked out Josie although he was looking north 700 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: business wise, Let's move up, Let's fight our da next, 701 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:18,600 Speaker 1: a fight that didn't happen, but that was the direction 702 00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,120 Speaker 1: he went ended up with two nads fights. But Luke, 703 00:30:21,200 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 1: it goes against everything I want in a sense, because 704 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,840 Speaker 1: I'm sick of every time somebody wins. The title of 705 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: the next conversation is should they move up right away 706 00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 1: and try to become champ chap because it becomes almost 707 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 1: like one championship where that's probably more gimmick heavy to 708 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,560 Speaker 1: have interesting main events, but they just constantly throw their 709 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 1: champions against one another. But I just think Ilia is 710 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 1: of that rare mix where when I see him talking 711 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: trash to Connor McGregor and we're going to show that 712 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,160 Speaker 1: in a second, I'm like, I kind of want some 713 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,520 Speaker 1: stupid crossover fight like that. I kind of want to 714 00:30:48,600 --> 00:30:51,000 Speaker 1: see the fan in me, not the journalist in me, 715 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 1: not anything like that. The fan in me right now 716 00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:56,000 Speaker 1: is so blown away at what Alia just did that 717 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 1: my first thought is can you do that against Islam? 718 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: And it goes against everything that we don't want, which 719 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: is what you said, Machev fighting only people moving up 720 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: and wait, champion versus champion unnecessarily, unnecessarily. But when you've 721 00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: got a star of this potential and magnitude, I not 722 00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:15,440 Speaker 1: only rush him to Spain. I'm literally thinking, now, Luke Thomas, 723 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,280 Speaker 1: what is the biggest B side I can put him 724 00:31:17,280 --> 00:31:19,880 Speaker 1: in with? Even if UFC doesn't think like that anymore, 725 00:31:19,880 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: Even if it's not about one big pay per view 726 00:31:22,360 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: overachieving and carrying them financially for six months, it's not 727 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 1: about that. That's not the model anymore. But that is 728 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,600 Speaker 1: what sparks interest in casual fans. In sparks a new revolution. 729 00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:33,720 Speaker 1: They have to realize what they have here in this 730 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 1: potential star. I just think if anyone would break, there'd 731 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:38,720 Speaker 1: be reason to break all the rules. It's your guy 732 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:39,320 Speaker 1: right now, it. 733 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 4: Is I think you put Iliah. I mean, I guess 734 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,080 Speaker 4: Volk's going to compete in Sydney right at three twelve. 735 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: Well, I got sound to give you pieces on what 736 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: if you want, let's go to Let's go first to 737 00:31:48,840 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: Dana White on why Volks should be next. 738 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 14: Volkanovski is one of those guys We're not gonna say 739 00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 14: no to Volkanowski. He's been that guy for us anytime 740 00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 14: we needed him. You know, he was on this run, 741 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:01,800 Speaker 14: like out of Sonya and like Alex is on right 742 00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 14: now when things don't go our way and you got 743 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 14: to call a guy. Vulkanowski's always been that guy. He 744 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 14: really was, and uh, you know, for him to ask 745 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 14: for it's nobody. I don't think anybody's in this room going, oh, 746 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 14: this is ridiculous or crazy and who wouldn't want to 747 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 14: see it again. 748 00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:23,840 Speaker 1: So there's Dana saying, let's go with the company man Volkanoski, 749 00:32:23,880 --> 00:32:26,160 Speaker 1: who deserves it, but Volk's got a caveat at why 750 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: it might not be next. Let's listen, how. 751 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:29,720 Speaker 6: Would you feel about going to Spain? 752 00:32:29,880 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 1: Waiting for the fight in Spain and all of his 753 00:32:32,720 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 1: fans over there.

He's saying yeah, but he's also giving you 767 00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: that caveat of he doesn't want to wait too long, Vulk. 768 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 1: He wants to just get back and be active. He's 769 00:33:09,400 --> 00:33:11,000 Speaker 1: not going to wait for Spain to open up and 770 00:33:11,240 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: pull Michael Chandler and sit. 771 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 4: Out, which I understand. 772 00:33:13,960 --> 00:33:17,360 Speaker 1: But Ilia, though, doesn't see me talking a lot about Vulk. 773 00:33:17,400 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: Here's Ilia on Mahachev. 774 00:33:20,120 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 8: Here in a hypothetical fight against Islam. How do you 775 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 8: see that fight going if it goes to the ground, 776 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,200 Speaker 8: do you feel confident that you could outgrapple him or 777 00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 8: would you try to keep it standing. 778 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 15: In my mindset, it's always the same. I'm always looking 779 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:38,920 Speaker 15: to chief things that no one could so someone could 780 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:39,960 Speaker 15: submit him. 781 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:44,600 Speaker 1: I will be the first one to submit. 782 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,560 Speaker 8: Him, any specific submission. 783 00:33:47,640 --> 00:33:47,800 Speaker 11: Now. 784 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,480 Speaker 15: I heard some love from some idiots, but it's going 785 00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 15: to happen, dude. 786 00:33:55,480 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm just telling you. When I hear him say I'll 787 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: be the first to submit Islam. The fan of me 788 00:33:59,240 --> 00:34:01,280 Speaker 1: wants to see that right now, even if it breaks 789 00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,920 Speaker 1: all the rules. But there's the other player involved, and 790 00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,120 Speaker 1: that is Connor McGregor, who put out a bunch of 791 00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 1: tweets about that and then brought o Komodo totally about it. 792 00:34:09,880 --> 00:34:11,120 Speaker 1: Here's his interesting reaction. 793 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:12,759 Speaker 4: Did you know he tweeted about you? 794 00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 5: Yeah? 795 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, Connor McGregor wrote, good little fighter, too small for 796 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 4: anything substantial. He was getting showed up in there. 797 00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:24,800 Speaker 15: I don't know what to say he. 798 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm telling you him, he's a fake. 799 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 15: He fakes to come back every time he insults everyone 800 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:34,920 Speaker 15: in the UFC. He's like, I don't care about anyone. 801 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 15: I don't respect anyone. Bro, you've been sick. You have 802 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 15: some problems to fix in your in your mind. You 803 00:34:42,480 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 15: know you need to take some classes of respect to 804 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,400 Speaker 15: have to trade to the people, because you're gonna end 805 00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 15: up really really bad when when you follow this kind 806 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:54,440 Speaker 15: of values in your life, you're gonna end up really bad. 807 00:34:54,480 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 15: So ask to God to don't cross the pots with 808 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 15: me never ever, because I'm we're not up when I'm gonna, 809 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,000 Speaker 15: I'm gonna see you a little. 810 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 1: So Luke basically to PORI is like f off McGregor. 811 00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: It seems like obviously he'd be willing to do that, 812 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:15,320 Speaker 1: is it. We don't do that fight next, right, we 813 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,839 Speaker 1: don't do that fight. I think that's not the fun. 814 00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 1: Let's just be very clear. 815 00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 4: Eliot's a pooria smashes Connor McGregor at this stage. 816 00:35:21,560 --> 00:35:23,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's like if you want to make somebody 817 00:35:23,640 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 1: into from an overnight star into a quadruple global star. 818 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 1: So that can that TV's on and we're we're hearing 819 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 1: the echo off of it. 820 00:35:31,320 --> 00:35:32,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, there you go. 821 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: All right, so you say let's stay in this division. 822 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:39,400 Speaker 4: I would like to stop playing. Did you see what 823 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,279 Speaker 4: Connor McGregor said game, because it just seems I agree. 824 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: With Lopez Diego Lopez. I want much more than a 825 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 1: VOLC rematch. I don't think is going to improve on that. 826 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:47,960 Speaker 1: I don't. 827 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:50,080 Speaker 4: I don't think he does either. He could make it 828 00:35:50,160 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 4: maybe go a little bit longer, depending on how things go. 829 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 4: But dude, and we didn't really talk about it. It's 830 00:35:55,880 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 4: not just a function of like, is Illly a powerful Yes, 831 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 4: of course he has tremendous knockout power, but it's a 832 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 4: little bit more than that. He has a very very patient, 833 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:08,759 Speaker 4: but unique ability to problem solve based on what you're 834 00:36:08,800 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 4: giving him. Established patterns, change patterns. He's an accurate puncher. 835 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,320 Speaker 4: But the thing I want to point like, how do 836 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 4: you get someone who's accurate and powerful? How do you 837 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 4: make good use of that? You have to have them 838 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 4: with a decent fight IQ and they have to be 839 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 4: able to problem solve based on what they've been given. 840 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,919 Speaker 4: And it doesn't matter whether it's Max, it doesn't matter 841 00:36:25,960 --> 00:36:30,240 Speaker 4: whether it's Volkanovski. He problem solves his way into landing 842 00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,439 Speaker 4: things of significance. None of it is by accident, none 843 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,920 Speaker 4: of it is fortuitous, although there was a little bit 844 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,680 Speaker 4: of that because of the way Max defended, But in 845 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 4: general he finds targets and lands on them cleanly because 846 00:36:44,239 --> 00:36:49,680 Speaker 4: he is able to do that with solutions he's concocted 847 00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 4: in the middle of the fight. 848 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: Well, that's why I want to see him put on 849 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 1: his back by somebody like Mahachev and see him work 850 00:36:55,040 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 1: his way out of that. I mean, I know we 851 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 1: got the way, We got to take our time. We 852 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,520 Speaker 1: got to see what happens here. It seems is gonna 853 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: do Vulk anyway. But will they make will they make 854 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:06,920 Speaker 1: Ilia go to Australia? And will he accept it. 855 00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 4: I don't think he accepts that in Australia, Okay, like 856 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 4: you're gonna make Ilia go all the way. I mean, 857 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:13,800 Speaker 4: I'm usually the guy that's like when fighters are like, 858 00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:16,400 Speaker 4: I'm the one who calls the shots. Now like, no, 859 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:19,560 Speaker 4: you're not, Like, you're absolutely not. However, I do feel 860 00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 4: like ilia is probably, I mean, because he can unlock 861 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:26,560 Speaker 4: a new market and he just did what seemed to 862 00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,359 Speaker 4: me almost the impossible basically over the weekend. I feel 863 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 4: like they're not going to be too upset if he's like, hey, 864 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 4: I'm not going to fucking Australia. But but what they 865 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 4: might do is they might make it an interim title 866 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 4: for whoever headlines that vulccard. 867 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:40,960 Speaker 5: They might do that, Oh so. 868 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 1: Vulk versus Diego Lopez for the interim right, which doesn't 869 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 1: make sense in the sense that you know your champion 870 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 1: is not in. 871 00:37:46,080 --> 00:37:48,080 Speaker 4: Yes, that's the number one contender fight, but it's basically 872 00:37:48,080 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 4: a glorified number one contender. 873 00:37:49,440 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 1: Yes, uh, there's one other name that wants to be 874 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:53,600 Speaker 1: in the sweepstakes. Let's see the tweet here from the 875 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:57,400 Speaker 1: living legend himself, Dustin Pourrier says, I want Max or 876 00:37:57,520 --> 00:37:59,600 Speaker 1: ilia X Luke, you would you agree that it would 877 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: make a lot more sense potentially for Dustin to fight 878 00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:05,279 Speaker 1: Max next. I mean, he's not in the Ilia conversation, right. 879 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 4: It'd be weird for Ilia to go up to fifty 880 00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:09,719 Speaker 4: five and fight a non title fight. 881 00:38:09,840 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, so let's not do that. Let's hear from Max 882 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,799 Speaker 1: Holloway and we'll talk about what could be next for him. 883 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: He believes, Luke, a third fight with POORI is the 884 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,879 Speaker 1: perfect fight, considering Dustin's talking about it being a retirement fight. 885 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 16: It's not his last fight, but I think if you 886 00:38:25,440 --> 00:38:28,040 Speaker 16: can be his last fight and get one back, it 887 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:28,759 Speaker 16: would be said. 888 00:38:28,800 --> 00:38:30,759 Speaker 1: But at the same time, you know I wouldn't for you. 889 00:38:31,120 --> 00:38:34,040 Speaker 6: Hey, that'd be nice the Diamond sign me up, bro. 890 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 6: I love that guy. I got nothing might respect for 891 00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 6: the guy, but he is up to it. 892 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 14: Oh against my ass, and I don't have the best 893 00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 14: lucks I gat against me, So I guess I gotta 894 00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:44,919 Speaker 14: try it again. 895 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,759 Speaker 1: So, Luke, I want to ask you this. Max said 896 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:50,799 Speaker 1: afterwards in the cage that you know he'll be back 897 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 1: and look for the reinventions he's had the renaissances. It's 898 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,759 Speaker 1: hard to doubt that even with this devastating loss. Do 899 00:38:56,920 --> 00:38:58,880 Speaker 1: you want to see Max stay in contention at one 900 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 1: forty five the pay per view main event, be MF 901 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,919 Speaker 1: route or move up to lightweight full time? And I'll 902 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 1: include the Poorier fight as a possibility. 903 00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,280 Speaker 4: In this discussion. I think Max has some interesting questions 904 00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 4: to ask himself here at this point, because here's where 905 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:15,839 Speaker 4: he seems to be. To me, I do not need 906 00:39:15,840 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 4: to see him at forty five anymore. He can make 907 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:21,479 Speaker 4: that cut, right, he can do it. Like I didn't 908 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:24,319 Speaker 4: have any concerns that he would somehow not make weight 909 00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 4: for this fight. You knew he would. But you know 910 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 4: what toll it exacts on him. He'll never tell us, 911 00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:32,840 Speaker 4: but I have a feeling it's probably significant, and I 912 00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:34,360 Speaker 4: would like to see him go to fifty five, in 913 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:36,680 Speaker 4: particular because he won the BMF bout fifty five. I 914 00:39:36,719 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 4: feel like I should be defended at fifty five. Fresh matchups, 915 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 4: fresh matchups as well, or in this particular case, not 916 00:39:42,040 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 4: a fresh matchup, but a great matchup that you can 917 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 4: just run. It's like Pachi al Marquez, Yes, you can 918 00:39:46,160 --> 00:39:47,359 Speaker 4: just run back a number of times. 919 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,719 Speaker 1: And who gives put him literally put him against all 920 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: those aging all action lightweight big names Chandler Gaygee. 921 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 4: Again, here's the thing for Max I hope that he considers, 922 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,560 Speaker 4: and I know it's probably, like, you know, the last 923 00:39:57,600 --> 00:40:00,160 Speaker 4: thing he wants to hear is is you all my 924 00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:00,880 Speaker 4: Ilia Booso? 925 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:05,040 Speaker 1: You dressed like Mario with a giant toporia boner. That 926 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:06,359 Speaker 1: your last person he wants to hear. 927 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 4: I know, But in all seriousness, again, it is impossible 928 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 4: to root against Max Holloway. It's impossible to not like him. 929 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,120 Speaker 4: And so what I really hope that he and his 930 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,560 Speaker 4: team consider is I don't think he's done. That's really 931 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:21,840 Speaker 4: not what I'm saying. What I am concerned about BC is, 932 00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:24,160 Speaker 4: especially if he goes to fifty five and you're going 933 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 4: to take on some even harder hitters at that point, 934 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 4: I think his durability will be less compromised because of 935 00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 4: the weight cut. But I'm a little bit concerned that 936 00:40:30,800 --> 00:40:32,359 Speaker 4: he can go on a place where he can win 937 00:40:32,440 --> 00:40:34,240 Speaker 4: and lose and win and lose and stay in big fights. 938 00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 4: But he's a He's absorbed a lot of significant strikes 939 00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 4: in his his career. He's been doing this for a 940 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,239 Speaker 4: very long time, and so I hope what he has 941 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 4: in mind is a clear goal about what is left, 942 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 4: and that it is attainable, and that if he gets 943 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:51,719 Speaker 4: to a place where it's pretty clear that attaining that 944 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 4: goal is impossible, that he hangs it up. 945 00:40:54,239 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 5: So very clear. 946 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 4: What I'm saying not saying he's done, but I am 947 00:40:58,680 --> 00:41:01,680 Speaker 4: saying I don't know if he's too too far from that, 948 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:05,120 Speaker 4: if what he cares about is preserving any kind of 949 00:41:05,239 --> 00:41:09,680 Speaker 4: long term health. I have watched Max hand out beatings, 950 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,000 Speaker 4: and I've watched Max take them, and I've never quite 951 00:41:12,040 --> 00:41:13,879 Speaker 4: seen the one like he got on Saturday, but I've 952 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,399 Speaker 4: seen some. The second fight against Pourier was really, really bad. Yes, 953 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,359 Speaker 4: he survived because he's Max, But this is what I mean. 954 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:22,799 Speaker 4: I don't have an appetite to see a bunch of those. 955 00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: You don't have an appetite for destructions. 956 00:41:25,600 --> 00:41:27,520 Speaker 4: Well, I don't mind him being in tough, competitive fights. 957 00:41:27,520 --> 00:41:29,719 Speaker 4: I mean this was not Neither guy was taking a 958 00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 4: beating in this one until Ilia landed a devastating right. 959 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:34,320 Speaker 4: If the fight had looked the way it looked for 960 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 4: the first tube and a half rounds, you can fight 961 00:41:37,440 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 4: a lot of those, Sure, you know what I mean. 962 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:41,120 Speaker 4: But what I'm not interested in seeing is more of 963 00:41:41,200 --> 00:41:43,000 Speaker 4: him stretched out. What I'm not interested in see him 964 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:44,920 Speaker 4: is a fight where against a fifty five dominant puncher 965 00:41:45,400 --> 00:41:48,279 Speaker 4: where he can't. I mean, maybe this has changed, but 966 00:41:49,040 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 4: in that fight with Poortier, it was just a lot 967 00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 4: of abuse over many rounds. 968 00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:53,400 Speaker 5: He was taking. 969 00:41:53,920 --> 00:41:55,799 Speaker 4: I feel like he's accomplished so much. Let's be very 970 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 4: clear about it. He's an automatic Hall of Famer. He's 971 00:41:58,360 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 4: an automatic all time great. He's a credit to the 972 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 4: fight game, one of the few guys you can just 973 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:06,960 Speaker 4: actually believe is a good dude in real life. Who 974 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,280 Speaker 4: was with me when we saw Max at his hotel 975 00:42:09,360 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 4: room before the fight with Vulk the two seventy six fight. 976 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:13,360 Speaker 5: I don't know if anybody who here was that. 977 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 4: I think Gaff was. Gaff is with me, dude. He 978 00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:17,560 Speaker 4: could not have been more accommodating. He had his whole 979 00:42:17,600 --> 00:42:19,840 Speaker 4: team in the suite. They were all sleeping there, his 980 00:42:20,000 --> 00:42:23,800 Speaker 4: kid was there, his wife was like everybody. Max is 981 00:42:23,920 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 4: such a good dude. I don't mind him can continuing 982 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 4: if he's got a plan and something he can execute. 983 00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:32,120 Speaker 4: I don't want to see him just fighting. I'm fighting, 984 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:32,719 Speaker 4: and I. 985 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 1: Don't want to necessarily see him against Poorier after he's 986 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,279 Speaker 1: lost the first two and coming off of a knockout loss. 987 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: So Luke, the fight to make is easy. Connor versus Max, 988 00:42:44,200 --> 00:42:46,520 Speaker 1: Part two BMF title on the line. I take that 989 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,239 Speaker 1: Max coming off of a knockout loss, like against a 990 00:42:49,239 --> 00:42:52,000 Speaker 1: bigger fighter. Let's do this right. You're gonna have to 991 00:42:52,040 --> 00:42:54,719 Speaker 1: fight at some bigger Catchwaight or whatever whatever Connor can make, 992 00:42:55,040 --> 00:42:57,840 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? This provided Connor can stop 993 00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:00,759 Speaker 1: this three hundred and sixty five day streak that we've 994 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 1: talked about. Lou Garrett, Yeah, I don't know if he can, 995 00:43:04,719 --> 00:43:06,920 Speaker 1: but this is really the perfect matchup for both. But 996 00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:09,239 Speaker 1: that's just me talking there. Let's go to topic number three, 997 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: speaking of dominant performances. Good lord, remember when I picked 998 00:43:13,080 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: Robert Whittaker by knockout because I thought Hamzad just couldn't 999 00:43:16,000 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: get his ish together. I'll take that one, humble pie. Indeed, 1000 00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:23,320 Speaker 1: Hamzad silence critics in a big way by breaking Robert 1001 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:26,399 Speaker 1: Whittaker's jaw and getting an early tap out in round 1002 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: one after taking him down fourteen seconds into it. We 1003 00:43:29,560 --> 00:43:33,760 Speaker 1: never got to see what what bloody what bloody knuckles? 1004 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 1: Rob there? What's his nickname that he hates Bobby Knuckles. 1005 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:38,279 Speaker 1: He doesn't like that though. 1006 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:39,880 Speaker 4: Every time I know he's like, I'm the Reaper. 1007 00:43:39,960 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 1: I'm like, okay, but Luke. Although Jemaiah entered as the 1008 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 1: number thirteenth ranked middleweight, was this the performance against a 1009 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,239 Speaker 1: former champion, a living legend, dominant enough that you would 1010 00:43:51,320 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 1: sign off on him cutting the line even past Sean 1011 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: Strickland to get the next shot at Drickistuple Steve for 1012 00:43:57,960 --> 00:43:58,319 Speaker 1: the title. 1013 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:02,919 Speaker 4: Yes, so you talked me in. It's my fall because 1014 00:44:02,960 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 4: I agreed. I'm not blaming you, but you did talk. 1015 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:08,400 Speaker 4: You convincingly talked me into picking Whitaker instead of Hamzat 1016 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 4: on Friday Show, which blew up in both of our faces. 1017 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,640 Speaker 1: Luckily it didn't blow them my wallet, but yeah, our faces. 1018 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 5: It was as one sided as can be. 1019 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:23,480 Speaker 4: I just listen. It's not like the argument is not 1020 00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:28,000 Speaker 4: Hamzat has a great case and Strickland does it. That's 1021 00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:31,319 Speaker 4: really not the argument. Strickland had a very close fight 1022 00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 4: with him, had a rebound fight against Paula Costa that 1023 00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,919 Speaker 4: was also not very interesting, but he won it. And again, 1024 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:38,200 Speaker 4: if you want to go back and watch the fight 1025 00:44:38,239 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 4: between DDP and Strickland, it's not hard to score three 1026 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 4: rounds for Strickland. You can do it. It's the basic question. 1027 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,719 Speaker 4: Can you find three rounds for him? Yes, you can, 1028 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:50,960 Speaker 4: You absolutely can. So in that case, he's got a 1029 00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 4: strong argument. However, Homzot just blew past Robert Whittaker in 1030 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,760 Speaker 4: a way that no one has not wonder Boy Thompson, 1031 00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 4: which was all the day back at one seventy, not 1032 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 4: even his destruct he stopped them in the first fight, 1033 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 4: and it didn't look quite like this. He ran through 1034 00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:13,240 Speaker 4: He ran through him. He ran through him like diarrhea. 1035 00:45:13,320 --> 00:45:15,239 Speaker 4: I mean, it was just, I mean it was wow. 1036 00:45:15,960 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 4: I'm just man, I'm being I'm being facetious. But Whittaker 1037 00:45:21,239 --> 00:45:23,719 Speaker 4: offered almost no real resistance. I mean, he did a 1038 00:45:23,719 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 4: little bit to stay alive, but he just got crushed 1039 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:30,719 Speaker 4: in the It was it was the Timan square tank 1040 00:45:30,840 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 4: versus the guy you know in front of him. 1041 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,080 Speaker 1: It was, well, you got a lot of these today. 1042 00:45:34,120 --> 00:45:36,279 Speaker 1: You're like Moronello over here, Okay. 1043 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 4: But how do you describe somebody who is an all 1044 00:45:38,800 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 4: time great at middle eight, a former champion looking like 1045 00:45:42,320 --> 00:45:44,600 Speaker 4: Hamsa was fighting you or me out there? Yeah, I 1046 00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,719 Speaker 4: mean he he I'll say this quite honestly, and I 1047 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,440 Speaker 4: don't mean it just because his teeth got messed up. 1048 00:45:48,440 --> 00:45:53,040 Speaker 4: Even before we saw that that Robert Whittaker, Hamzad made 1049 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:58,320 Speaker 4: him unrecognizable. He made him absolutely unrecognizable, and how he 1050 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:02,080 Speaker 4: just bodied him. And so you've got this guy now, 1051 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 4: I don't know what his VC issues are this week, 1052 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 4: he did check that it is. 1053 00:46:05,640 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, fighters say lots of things. 1054 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 1: Dana's also confirmed that not I mean, data doesn't Dana 1055 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:11,359 Speaker 1: doesn't say he did. 1056 00:46:11,400 --> 00:46:11,840 Speaker 5: He confirm it. 1057 00:46:11,920 --> 00:46:14,480 Speaker 4: He didn't really confirm it to me. But things could 1058 00:46:14,480 --> 00:46:16,480 Speaker 4: have changed recently, and again, depending on who wins the 1059 00:46:16,480 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 4: presidential election next week, there could be a big change 1060 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,279 Speaker 4: that happens anyway. So there are some questions about where 1061 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 4: any potential fight with Hamzat would be and on what schedule, 1062 00:46:25,280 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 4: and that does create some complications. But just to like 1063 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,120 Speaker 4: fight for fight, HOMASOT versus DDP. 1064 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:32,040 Speaker 5: Is a fresh matchup. 1065 00:46:32,200 --> 00:46:34,840 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's a highly interesting matchup. And what I 1066 00:46:34,920 --> 00:46:37,399 Speaker 4: want to really get back to is did you get 1067 00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:41,440 Speaker 4: clear answers about some of the questions that we had 1068 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:43,840 Speaker 4: around Hamzad. No, you didn't know, But isn't that. 1069 00:46:43,880 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 1: More exciting when you don't When somebody can get all 1070 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,239 Speaker 1: the way to the title level without having answered all 1071 00:46:48,280 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: those questions like Connor on that rise. 1072 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 4: This is what I mean. It's like I often make 1073 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:54,840 Speaker 4: this point where you'll see someone come off the regional 1074 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:56,839 Speaker 4: scene and they'll have seven fights and it's all first 1075 00:46:56,920 --> 00:46:59,200 Speaker 4: round KOs and someone will be like, isn't this guy great? 1076 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 4: And he'll be like, yes, he obviously great, but he 1077 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:04,200 Speaker 4: hasn't fought anybody. And yes, some of Hamsa fights, like 1078 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 4: the Gilbert fight and the Kamora fight, they went the distance, 1079 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:09,680 Speaker 4: but in general, he's beating guys, former champions, all time 1080 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 4: greats in his weight class like they're nothing. It's a 1081 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:15,440 Speaker 4: fresh matchup, it's an interesting challenge, and DDP looks to 1082 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,920 Speaker 4: me like he might have something for him that can 1083 00:47:18,040 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 4: get us some answers in that third, fourth, potentially fifth one. 1084 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 1: To me, it's actually a slam dunk. Even though that's 1085 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,800 Speaker 1: tough on Sean Strickland for everything you said, but we 1086 00:47:25,920 --> 00:47:29,719 Speaker 1: already almost missed out on this this phenomenon that is 1087 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 1: Hamza when he's healthy. I don't know if we have 1088 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 1: to put him in that category of motivated Bjay and 1089 00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:36,359 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen Bell for it, Like, look, I can't really 1090 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,960 Speaker 1: explain how Hamza can be so up and down all 1091 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 1: the time with health, with everything, and then just turn 1092 00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 1: up and absolutely kick the shit out of people regardless 1093 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,439 Speaker 1: of their status or resume or history like he does. 1094 00:47:48,719 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: But he does, you take advantage of that. This guy 1095 00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:52,800 Speaker 1: is one of the rare guys in the roster that 1096 00:47:52,840 --> 00:47:55,719 Speaker 1: you're like pay per view headliner will carry numbers every 1097 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,439 Speaker 1: time Luke. He moves numbers on everything he touches. Remember 1098 00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 1: we did that Gilbert Burns interview ahead of that fight, 1099 00:48:00,440 --> 00:48:03,000 Speaker 1: and that thing did monster traffic. It did that because 1100 00:48:03,040 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 1: of Tamaiya. He's that bad guy at the end of 1101 00:48:05,400 --> 00:48:07,040 Speaker 1: the movie who can if you can put a belt 1102 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 1: around him in any division, you do that. Now is 1103 00:48:09,480 --> 00:48:12,440 Speaker 1: the time nobody expected that he ran right through him. 1104 00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:15,160 Speaker 1: Let's hear from a doctor. This is David Abbassi, an 1105 00:48:15,239 --> 00:48:18,600 Speaker 1: orthopedic surgeon, breaking down just what happened there to Whittaker. 1106 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,240 Speaker 11: If you guys weren't already terrified of this guy kamzat Kamaia, 1107 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:25,880 Speaker 11: you could see what he did to Robert Whittaker's. 1108 00:48:25,600 --> 00:48:27,320 Speaker 4: Lower teeth and mandible. 1109 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 1: A lot of confusion over the early. 1110 00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:34,680 Speaker 11: Tap by Robert Whittaker right off the rear naked choke. 1111 00:48:34,719 --> 00:48:38,400 Speaker 11: But DC then shows this photograph of the aftermath of 1112 00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:40,879 Speaker 11: what happened to Robert Whittaker's You could see those teeth 1113 00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 11: are basically floating back there.

Is it sustainable 1168 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:10,680 Speaker 1: in the UFC right now? 1169 00:51:13,280 --> 00:51:16,160 Speaker 4: Again, we didn't get answers to all of the questions 1170 00:51:16,320 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 4: critical questions that we need, but I felt like something 1171 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 4: similar with Ilio Taporia. If you're gonna do something with 1172 00:51:27,040 --> 00:51:28,279 Speaker 4: this guy, do it, do. 1173 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:30,759 Speaker 1: It now, light the match. We'll see what happens next. Hey, 1174 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,000 Speaker 1: let's hear from Tremaia if he was asked how his 1175 00:51:33,200 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 1: grappling would fare against the champion dupola. 1176 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:36,520 Speaker 4: See I get your. 1177 00:51:36,520 --> 00:51:39,680 Speaker 14: Thoughts on Drica's as a champion has run so far, 1178 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:41,280 Speaker 14: and what do you make of his grappling? 1179 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:47,560 Speaker 2: But do you think how I done with this guy? 1180 00:51:48,760 --> 00:51:49,439 Speaker 4: How he done? 1181 00:51:50,080 --> 00:51:51,040 Speaker 11: Rob took him down? 1182 00:51:51,320 --> 00:51:52,839 Speaker 8: So Rob took him down? 1183 00:51:52,960 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 2: So there is. 1184 00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 1: Look if they made that fight next, is this time 1185 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 1: of one way finished potentially in play for CHAMIAV against DDP. 1186 00:52:05,080 --> 00:52:06,800 Speaker 1: I'm not asking you to predict who wins, but is 1187 00:52:06,920 --> 00:52:09,880 Speaker 1: this possible? Can he reproduce what he did to Whittaker 1188 00:52:10,200 --> 00:52:12,759 Speaker 1: to DDP? Considering when they fought, Whittaker took him down 1189 00:52:12,800 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 1: and they've sort of traded big grappling moments. 1190 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,439 Speaker 5: Again, we just didn't get answers to all of these questions. 1191 00:52:19,560 --> 00:52:22,359 Speaker 1: But grappling wise, could he hold that dominance over. 1192 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 5: DDP like that? I think he can do that to anybody. 1193 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:28,799 Speaker 4: But but if Whittaker doesn't have that injury, how much 1194 00:52:28,840 --> 00:52:31,120 Speaker 4: longer could he have maintained? Let's especially have to ask yourself. 1195 00:52:31,200 --> 00:52:33,960 Speaker 4: And two, you know does DDP have that? I don't know, 1196 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:37,400 Speaker 4: but do DDP? We've said it before, It's there's not 1197 00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:39,759 Speaker 4: he even said it is there is there a method 1198 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 4: to his madness? Not really, but he finds ways to win. Also, 1199 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:48,080 Speaker 4: how about this Hamzak could end up beating DDP. And 1200 00:52:48,200 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 4: then there's the bow Nickel factor, which he's still far away. 1201 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:52,120 Speaker 4: We don't really know where that is, but you would 1202 00:52:52,120 --> 00:52:54,040 Speaker 4: at least think like he's got something for him in 1203 00:52:54,080 --> 00:52:57,239 Speaker 4: that department. However, CHAMAIAV has got big power as well, 1204 00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,799 Speaker 4: but he's eventually going to find someone who can take 1205 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:02,160 Speaker 4: him pass the third round. And what that looks like 1206 00:53:02,400 --> 00:53:03,919 Speaker 4: is honestly anybody's guests. 1207 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 1: We're gonna talk about stupid break glass fights for Taporia 1208 00:53:07,320 --> 00:53:10,080 Speaker 1: giving his stardom and talking about Connor, then I guess 1209 00:53:10,120 --> 00:53:12,400 Speaker 1: we should talk about this absurd fight that I never 1210 00:53:12,440 --> 00:53:16,680 Speaker 1: considered until now. Here's Tremaiah of talking about Poeton Luke. 1211 00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:18,799 Speaker 8: Todder One looking like, do you want to clear out 1212 00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,320 Speaker 8: the middleweight division or would you prefer to sort of 1213 00:53:21,600 --> 00:53:29,279 Speaker 8: go up to light heavyweight and challenge Alex perro m bro. 1214 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:32,239 Speaker 15: I talk about three belts from a long time ago, 1215 00:53:32,400 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 15: so of course I want to go up. 1216 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 3: And but. 1217 00:53:36,600 --> 00:53:37,000 Speaker 5: What then? 1218 00:53:37,080 --> 00:53:37,440 Speaker 4: And White? 1219 00:53:37,520 --> 00:53:38,439 Speaker 3: What do you see once? 1220 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:42,200 Speaker 6: I don't know, man, So if that gives me first, 1221 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,600 Speaker 6: I as a in my weight class, need to take 1222 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:46,000 Speaker 6: the belt. 1223 00:53:46,120 --> 00:53:48,279 Speaker 2: So then I gonna think about it as well. 1224 00:53:49,480 --> 00:53:51,160 Speaker 1: I mean, we can't put him in a light heavyweight 1225 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,799 Speaker 1: title fight when he hasn't fought for the middleweight title yet. 1226 00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:55,759 Speaker 1: But I hadn't even thought of that. Do you love 1227 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 1: his just no hesitation? I will take that guy down 1228 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,440 Speaker 1: to and beat the shut up? I mean, because that's 1229 00:54:01,480 --> 00:54:04,120 Speaker 1: a style contrast, that is a that is insane. I know, 1230 00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 1: of course it'd be interesting, damn. But one thing at 1231 00:54:09,160 --> 00:54:10,080 Speaker 1: a time, video. 1232 00:54:09,920 --> 00:54:11,480 Speaker 5: One thing at a time. But here's the question. 1233 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 4: If he doesn't end up fighting DDP, what do you 1234 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:15,080 Speaker 4: do with Hamzad? 1235 00:54:15,120 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 5: Who does he fight? 1236 00:54:15,719 --> 00:54:18,680 Speaker 4: In that instance? Weng Island, Luke, I'm Dana White right now, 1237 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:21,080 Speaker 4: and I say, okay, we're gonna do Sean DDP two. 1238 00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:25,120 Speaker 4: Tell me who you think should Hamzad should fight next? 1239 00:54:25,160 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 4: What do you say? 1240 00:54:26,239 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 5: Say it? 1241 00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:30,279 Speaker 4: Bo Nickel? After he beats Paul? Is he? Dude? 1242 00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:31,319 Speaker 1: Is he's out there now? 1243 00:54:31,840 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 4: See? 1244 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 5: Because a bullet thing there too. 1245 00:54:34,360 --> 00:54:36,239 Speaker 9: If I'm Data White, I'm giving hams out the title 1246 00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,200 Speaker 9: shot right now, and I'm doing is he Sean too? 1247 00:54:38,400 --> 00:54:38,960 Speaker 4: In Sydney? 1248 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,759 Speaker 1: That is the right call. That's the right call right there, 1249 00:54:42,239 --> 00:54:44,880 Speaker 1: Long Island, Luke is damn right it's a great strickling 1250 00:54:44,920 --> 00:54:46,600 Speaker 1: out of Sonia. It could be the Comaine for that. 1251 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,160 Speaker 1: It could also be its own in my opinion, it 1252 00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 1: could be almost its own pay per view main event 1253 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:51,719 Speaker 1: without a title. I know that you don't love that. 1254 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 5: Does Sean take that a comaine? 1255 00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:56,520 Speaker 4: I mean, if it's five rounds but no pay per viewpoint, oh, 1256 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:59,439 Speaker 4: he wouldn't get in because another champion. But if they say, dude, 1257 00:54:59,440 --> 00:55:01,359 Speaker 4: you're not getting the title shot, he'll take it. Stay 1258 00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:01,759 Speaker 4: in the mix. 1259 00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:04,919 Speaker 1: That is interesting. Let's see Sean's tweet about the idea 1260 00:55:04,920 --> 00:55:07,560 Speaker 1: of Jamaiah cutting him in line. Understand one thing, I 1261 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:09,319 Speaker 1: am next in line. That has been said, It's been 1262 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 1: written January February. Me and DDP are scrapping go back 1263 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: to chechna on wait a few months. Wait sorry, u AE, 1264 00:55:15,600 --> 00:55:18,839 Speaker 1: you're not allowed in Chechnia. But hey, crypto scams while 1265 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,399 Speaker 1: you wait. End quote. Those were the thoughts of Sean 1266 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:23,720 Speaker 1: Strickland not necessarily. 1267 00:55:23,800 --> 00:55:27,400 Speaker 4: Likes a lot of shit that's insane. Every once in 1268 00:55:27,480 --> 00:55:29,520 Speaker 4: a while, he'll have a banger out there every. 1269 00:55:29,360 --> 00:55:29,960 Speaker 5: Once in a while. 1270 00:55:30,040 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 1: Honest question, though, is Tony Hinchcliff one end word away 1271 00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:41,080 Speaker 1: from being the added to the Golden Hour podcast. I 1272 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,879 Speaker 1: mean that'd be a murderer's row lineup right, that'd be unbelievable, right, 1273 00:55:45,560 --> 00:55:48,160 Speaker 1: all right, yeah, there you go, so interesting stuff in 1274 00:55:48,239 --> 00:55:51,200 Speaker 1: the middle waight yeah, in the middle way division. Hey, 1275 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:52,760 Speaker 1: let's move on from here because. 1276 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,680 Speaker 5: We do WATI with Eddie Bravo and Job. 1277 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:56,560 Speaker 4: I did not watch. 1278 00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:58,719 Speaker 1: I did not because that hungry wolf took over the 1279 00:55:58,760 --> 00:56:00,560 Speaker 1: reddit spaces after what he didn't. 1280 00:56:00,640 --> 00:56:03,000 Speaker 4: It didn't make a lot of uh new. I didn't 1281 00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:04,120 Speaker 4: see a lot of clips come out of it. 1282 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:07,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, it wasn't. I wasn't focused on it at that time, 1283 00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:08,520 Speaker 1: but I'd have to get back to you. Let's go 1284 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,200 Speaker 1: to topic number four, which is Mago medankliav. Shara Bullet 1285 00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:15,560 Speaker 1: and the rest of UFC three oh eight. Luke, we 1286 00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:18,520 Speaker 1: talked about it coming in UFC Challenge Mago medan Kliev 1287 00:56:18,600 --> 00:56:21,160 Speaker 1: that if you want the next shot at Poeton, even 1288 00:56:21,200 --> 00:56:23,719 Speaker 1: though you kind of already deserved the last time, you're 1289 00:56:23,719 --> 00:56:26,239 Speaker 1: gonna have to be exciting against Alexander Ratkech. Well, it 1290 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 1: was a hard fallt competitive, three round unanimous decision for 1291 00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:33,160 Speaker 1: an Kliev. Dana would would say afterwards that he thinks 1292 00:56:33,239 --> 00:56:35,719 Speaker 1: that's enough Luke Thomas. Is that enough to drop this 1293 00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,719 Speaker 1: charade and finally get Poton versus Ankliv? 1294 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 5: Yes, yes, I mean the reality is on Caliev. I 1295 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:44,640 Speaker 5: don't think. 1296 00:56:45,640 --> 00:56:47,920 Speaker 4: I think it's probably fair to say On Caliv didn't 1297 00:56:47,960 --> 00:56:52,440 Speaker 4: necessarily wow anybody on Saturday, But the response would be 1298 00:56:52,560 --> 00:56:55,800 Speaker 4: number one, he didn't really need to wow anyone. He 1299 00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,200 Speaker 4: could have already gotten a title shot based on what 1300 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,480 Speaker 4: he had done even prior to UFC the real eight. 1301 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:02,720 Speaker 4: And then you add in that he beat a quality 1302 00:57:03,840 --> 00:57:07,799 Speaker 4: light heavyweight in Alexander Rakitch without much issue. I think 1303 00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:09,719 Speaker 4: is a fair way to put it. It was competitive, 1304 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 4: but not You never thought On Calive was in trouble. 1305 00:57:13,080 --> 00:57:15,480 Speaker 4: You never thought On Calive had no answer. It was 1306 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:17,000 Speaker 4: just kind of one guy was ahead of the other 1307 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 4: one and that sort of stayed that way for the 1308 00:57:19,080 --> 00:57:19,920 Speaker 4: vast majority of it. 1309 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:21,920 Speaker 5: So that's the guy that's deserving, and I think that's 1310 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 5: pretty fair. 1311 00:57:23,120 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 4: However, the question that I would ask back to UBC 1312 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:27,400 Speaker 4: and then was the one that I was asking myself, 1313 00:57:27,600 --> 00:57:30,680 Speaker 4: was when you were watching this, did you see anyone 1314 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:34,000 Speaker 4: there who you thought gave real problems to alex Padta, 1315 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:36,120 Speaker 4: Which is not the reason to grant or not grant 1316 00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,439 Speaker 4: a title shot, but just a separate question. 1317 00:57:38,680 --> 00:57:41,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, you see that, I didn't. But also, Alexander Rakitch, 1318 00:57:41,760 --> 00:57:44,720 Speaker 1: I think even with three consecutive losses, is truly e laite. 1319 00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:45,360 Speaker 4: I mean Long Island. 1320 00:57:45,360 --> 00:57:47,520 Speaker 1: Look, were you making some backdoor argument that you thought 1321 00:57:47,600 --> 00:57:48,760 Speaker 1: Racket sure got the decision? 1322 00:57:49,040 --> 00:57:51,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, he won round one and all three judges scorecards. 1323 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 9: I thought maybe one of those other rounds could have gone. 1324 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 1: I can't go that far. It was competitive, But to 1325 00:57:56,040 --> 00:57:59,000 Speaker 1: answer your question, no, it didn't scream that. But in 1326 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 1: some ways, even when the UFC's warning this was really 1327 00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 1: only going to be about survive in advance, get the wind, 1328 00:58:03,760 --> 00:58:05,919 Speaker 1: no matter what to ankle lives credit. He did push 1329 00:58:06,000 --> 00:58:08,160 Speaker 1: the pace. He was constantly looking to go forward. It 1330 00:58:08,280 --> 00:58:10,480 Speaker 1: wasn't overly exciting in my opinion, because Rackets is a 1331 00:58:10,520 --> 00:58:12,880 Speaker 1: tough ass out who was in there trying just as 1332 00:58:12,920 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 1: hard and badly needed a win. It's just, I mean, 1333 00:58:16,000 --> 00:58:19,840 Speaker 1: this guy's unbeaten. I know there's draws and no contest, 1334 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:22,040 Speaker 1: and everybody's unbeaten in like thirteen or fourteen fights in 1335 00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:24,840 Speaker 1: a row now hasn't lost since that UFC debut to 1336 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,120 Speaker 1: Paul Craig, Let's go, it's Ankle live time. 1337 00:58:27,080 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 4: Now he has which was such a bad and he's 1338 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:32,040 Speaker 4: been a donk. 1339 00:58:31,840 --> 00:58:33,920 Speaker 1: At times, and and do I think that. Look, I 1340 00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:35,800 Speaker 1: don't think it's going to be exciting for him in 1341 00:58:35,880 --> 00:58:38,400 Speaker 1: any fight unless it's against somebody that's really making an 1342 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,440 Speaker 1: action fight. I just think that's kind of how he is. 1343 00:58:40,520 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 1: Luke Okay, I think he is a threat for Poton, 1344 00:58:43,600 --> 00:58:45,919 Speaker 1: But I'm starting to come off the idea, maybe because 1345 00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,320 Speaker 1: Brent brook House won't stop shaming me that that this 1346 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,040 Speaker 1: is the trap fight, you know, at the end of it, 1347 00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:53,880 Speaker 1: I just want to see no, no, he's he's against 1348 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:56,120 Speaker 1: me or anyone trying to frame it as because he's 1349 00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:57,160 Speaker 1: just not wrestling anymore. 1350 00:58:57,200 --> 00:58:57,320 Speaker 13: Now. 1351 00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,160 Speaker 1: I think in this fight it worked out good that 1352 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 1: he didn't wrestle. He gave himself the best chance to 1353 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,280 Speaker 1: win over the bosses. Let's hear from that boss first. 1354 00:59:03,360 --> 00:59:04,440 Speaker 1: Let's hear Dana White on this. 1355 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,320 Speaker 7: To go back to ank Calive. He promised coming into 1356 00:59:08,360 --> 00:59:10,080 Speaker 7: this fight he wouldn't shoot a single takedown. 1357 00:59:10,240 --> 00:59:10,880 Speaker 5: He didn't do it. 1358 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 7: Is this enough to get Alex Prayerr his title fight? 1359 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:16,200 Speaker 7: It's the second longest on beat and streak in the 1360 00:59:16,240 --> 00:59:18,480 Speaker 7: history of this division behind John Jones, I would have 1361 00:59:18,560 --> 00:59:20,680 Speaker 7: to say yes, well. 1362 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:22,960 Speaker 1: Very subtle there from Dana, no wasted words, just right 1363 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:25,040 Speaker 1: to the point. I appreciate that it is. It's time, 1364 00:59:25,080 --> 00:59:26,960 Speaker 1: We're going to get that fight. We'll see what happens now. Look, 1365 00:59:26,960 --> 00:59:29,960 Speaker 1: Ank Calive, do you think he'll okay? He hasn't wrestled 1366 00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 1: in a long time, to be very fair, he hasn't 1367 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 1: attempted more than what two takedowns in. 1368 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,120 Speaker 4: A long time, or even one takedown he can't remember 1369 00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:35,640 Speaker 4: the last time. 1370 00:59:35,840 --> 00:59:38,640 Speaker 1: Will he try that aggressively against Prayer? And is that 1371 00:59:38,760 --> 00:59:39,840 Speaker 1: the right game plan? 1372 00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:40,000 Speaker 2: What? 1373 00:59:40,040 --> 00:59:42,280 Speaker 4: Once we get I think eventually he will, I just 1374 00:59:42,520 --> 00:59:46,440 Speaker 4: don't know how quickly, Like Tamaya of the bell rings 1375 00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:49,600 Speaker 4: that he's shot out of a cannon. Oh yeah, right 1376 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,320 Speaker 4: right across on Calive, I feel like we'll take his time, 1377 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 4: which by the way, is fine taking your time, not 1378 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:57,920 Speaker 4: like aggressively going after the takedown, and then you know, 1379 00:59:58,000 --> 01:00:00,200 Speaker 4: walking into something is probably a great idea. At the 1380 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 4: same time, that's not the question. The question is is 1381 01:00:03,200 --> 01:00:05,800 Speaker 4: he going to wrestle an appropriate amount that where he 1382 01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:08,800 Speaker 4: might have an advantage to put someone like Patta on 1383 01:00:08,920 --> 01:00:11,840 Speaker 4: the defense. And I don't again, this is the thing 1384 01:00:11,880 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 4: I was watching. Did he put in a competent, fine 1385 01:00:14,920 --> 01:00:19,160 Speaker 4: performance against rackets? Yes, it wasn't really impressive. It didn't 1386 01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:21,600 Speaker 4: really show me a lot that I could hang my 1387 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:23,120 Speaker 4: hat on and be like, oh, that's something he's going 1388 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 4: to definitely give Potons some problems with. 1389 01:00:26,000 --> 01:00:28,280 Speaker 1: I mean, he can look dominant against you know, sometimes 1390 01:00:28,400 --> 01:00:31,400 Speaker 1: mid tier or BB plus level guys, but I don't 1391 01:00:31,400 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 1: think he's going to have that those moments against Poet. 1392 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:35,160 Speaker 1: You got to be perfect against Poton, you make that 1393 01:00:35,200 --> 01:00:35,880 Speaker 1: one mistake, and. 1394 01:00:35,880 --> 01:00:37,120 Speaker 4: I don't think it to be perfect, but you have 1395 01:00:37,160 --> 01:00:38,920 Speaker 4: to put him on the defense. And most guys want 1396 01:00:38,920 --> 01:00:40,560 Speaker 4: to play the fifty to fifty game with him, and 1397 01:00:40,840 --> 01:00:43,400 Speaker 4: I just don't understand why they keep Khalil Roundtree is 1398 01:00:43,440 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 4: different because his fifty to fifty shot was also in 1399 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,360 Speaker 4: the striking and for a while that was going quite 1400 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:50,600 Speaker 4: well for him. He just couldn't sustain it. But I 1401 01:00:50,760 --> 01:00:52,560 Speaker 4: just don't understand what it would be for a guy 1402 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:56,360 Speaker 4: like on Calive. He doesn't have Khalil's speed or explosivity, 1403 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,920 Speaker 4: knockout power. You got to mix it up. 1404 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:01,840 Speaker 1: We'll see it's gonna be an interesting fight. I do 1405 01:01:01,960 --> 01:01:03,840 Speaker 1: look forward to it because I want to see someone 1406 01:01:03,920 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 1: try to take down Don't you want to see that? 1407 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:07,480 Speaker 1: You want to see him have. 1408 01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:10,800 Speaker 4: To deal with that on Caliev does have skills to 1409 01:01:10,920 --> 01:01:13,160 Speaker 4: at a bare minimum, give Poeton problems and I. 1410 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:14,800 Speaker 1: Think beat him definitely could beat him. 1411 01:01:14,840 --> 01:01:16,800 Speaker 4: Yes, whether he can put it all together in a 1412 01:01:16,920 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 4: single performance, I don't know, but to your point, he's 1413 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:20,600 Speaker 4: earned it, and that's why you got to. 1414 01:01:20,600 --> 01:01:20,960 Speaker 5: Make the fight. 1415 01:01:21,080 --> 01:01:24,120 Speaker 1: That's it. Look from the standpoint of viral KOs, just 1416 01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:28,600 Speaker 1: how good was Shara Bullet Maga Medoff's double spinning back 1417 01:01:28,720 --> 01:01:31,480 Speaker 1: vist Ko when he was blocked by arm and Petrojian 1418 01:01:31,600 --> 01:01:34,960 Speaker 1: yet spun off the other shoulder to deliver that. I mean, 1419 01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:37,000 Speaker 1: is that going to be added to that UFC highlight 1420 01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:39,200 Speaker 1: reel that plays with Baba O'Reilly by the Who when 1421 01:01:39,240 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 1: you're sitting in the arena and they're getting you all 1422 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:42,680 Speaker 1: fired up before the start. 1423 01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:43,120 Speaker 5: Of the We'll say this. 1424 01:01:43,280 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 4: I've been hard on Shara because I thought some of 1425 01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 4: the hype was a little bit much. I still think 1426 01:01:46,680 --> 01:01:49,280 Speaker 4: some of the hype doesn't quite match exactly where he's at. 1427 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:51,360 Speaker 1: I mean, he gets hit, you believe that he gets hit, 1428 01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:51,640 Speaker 1: and he. 1429 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:52,400 Speaker 5: Was fighting a guy. 1430 01:01:52,480 --> 01:01:55,280 Speaker 4: I mean, dude, Arma Petrosian was driving me nuts in 1431 01:01:55,360 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 4: this fight. He does something I call jousting, or if 1432 01:01:58,080 --> 01:02:01,400 Speaker 4: you look at like Max or Ilia, they're fainting a lot, right, 1433 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:03,200 Speaker 4: they're giving you a look to get a reaction, and 1434 01:02:03,280 --> 01:02:06,000 Speaker 4: they're changing it up. Fucking army Petrosian just. 1435 01:02:06,040 --> 01:02:06,560 Speaker 5: Walks right in. 1436 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:09,520 Speaker 4: I call it jousting, where he just they just they just. 1437 01:02:09,680 --> 01:02:11,240 Speaker 5: Wait a second, they wait a second, and then they go. 1438 01:02:11,400 --> 01:02:14,120 Speaker 4: They don't ever set it up, and so eventually, to 1439 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:16,240 Speaker 4: his credit, Shara was waiting on it, waiting on it 1440 01:02:16,280 --> 01:02:18,840 Speaker 4: and then timing him every single time his. 1441 01:02:18,920 --> 01:02:20,800 Speaker 1: Right hands when he times you are big, like that's 1442 01:02:20,800 --> 01:02:21,720 Speaker 1: a legitimate. 1443 01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:22,360 Speaker 5: You set it up for him. 1444 01:02:22,400 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 4: He's got the counter fighting in that particular case to 1445 01:02:24,800 --> 01:02:28,640 Speaker 4: do really well. That double spinning backfist was fucking awesome. 1446 01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:31,439 Speaker 4: I can't insane. You can't. So you could say whatever 1447 01:02:31,440 --> 01:02:33,680 Speaker 4: else you want about the guy that was sick, and 1448 01:02:33,760 --> 01:02:35,840 Speaker 4: I give him credit for that's an all time highlight ring. 1449 01:02:35,960 --> 01:02:38,440 Speaker 1: He's very unproven despite four no although he does have 1450 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:40,480 Speaker 1: a couple of pretty good wins in this for you know, 1451 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:43,919 Speaker 1: Bruno Silvan's debut one of them. But now at thirty 1452 01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:46,400 Speaker 1: years old, We're not talking about give this guy a ranking. 1453 01:02:46,880 --> 01:02:48,960 Speaker 1: He's talking about out of Sonya. He called him out 1454 01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:51,919 Speaker 1: in the cage afterwards, And here is Shara Bullet saying 1455 01:02:51,960 --> 01:02:53,520 Speaker 1: a little bit more about out of Sonia. 1456 01:02:53,520 --> 01:02:55,760 Speaker 17: At the post presser, you called out Israeli a Sonya 1457 01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,680 Speaker 17: and declared yourself the best striker in the division. I'm 1458 01:02:58,720 --> 01:03:00,919 Speaker 17: curious when you break down on Israel, do you see 1459 01:03:00,920 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 17: a lot of holes and techniques that you could take 1460 01:03:02,720 --> 01:03:04,960 Speaker 17: advantage of? And I would assume if you fought him, 1461 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:06,840 Speaker 17: it would be a five round main event, possibly a 1462 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:09,880 Speaker 17: fight night. Obviously, the USC is going to Saudi Arabia 1463 01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:11,960 Speaker 17: next year. Is that a date that you have circled 1464 01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:14,800 Speaker 17: as a possible match up against Israel if they do 1465 01:03:14,960 --> 01:03:15,480 Speaker 17: offer it to you. 1466 01:03:15,840 --> 01:03:19,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, I used to. 1467 01:03:19,560 --> 01:03:22,080 Speaker 10: Chase Israel design and when he fought kickboxing in China, 1468 01:03:22,200 --> 01:03:24,880 Speaker 10: I was fighting kickbox in China too. Now that he 1469 01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:27,040 Speaker 10: switched to MMA, and now that I'm here, I'm ready 1470 01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 10: to capture all the land. You know, I'm ready to 1471 01:03:30,320 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 10: I'm ready to fight him, and this possibility presents himself. 1472 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:35,760 Speaker 10: Are you ready to fight him in Mikawo, Saudi Arabia? 1473 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:37,800 Speaker 17: It doesn't matter were they did they ever offer you 1474 01:03:37,880 --> 01:03:39,920 Speaker 17: a fight against Israel when you were both kickboxing? 1475 01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, fighting parr. Yeah. 1476 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:47,800 Speaker 10: I beat his friend inspiring partner Blood Diamond in China 1477 01:03:47,960 --> 01:03:50,240 Speaker 10: and I was ready to fight him. You know, Israel 1478 01:03:50,320 --> 01:03:52,760 Speaker 10: is very popular in China. But then he switched to 1479 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 10: MMA and signed to the UC and now I'm here too. 1480 01:03:56,400 --> 01:03:58,400 Speaker 7: Do you think Israel at Asnya would accept the fight 1481 01:03:58,440 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 7: with you right now?

Is he that big enough of a potential 1489 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:20,000 Speaker 1: breakout star where anyone in the matchup room is even 1490 01:04:20,000 --> 01:04:21,880 Speaker 1: gonna have a conversation about this he's making. 1491 01:04:22,040 --> 01:04:24,520 Speaker 4: He's good for fun fights, he's good for exciting fights 1492 01:04:24,520 --> 01:04:26,960 Speaker 4: at a bare minimum. Whether he can climb the actual 1493 01:04:27,080 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 4: ranks by beating like really good rink guys, I don't 1494 01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:30,640 Speaker 4: know yet, but like slow the roll on, but like 1495 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:32,960 Speaker 4: also to me, it's like Kyle Ohalio has proven a 1496 01:04:33,000 --> 01:04:35,160 Speaker 4: lot more in this division.

It turned out to 1580 01:07:34,200 --> 01:07:35,720 Speaker 1: be a good thing, although RDA is gonna have to 1581 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:39,000 Speaker 1: nurse off that injury. They gave it to Turkish heavyweight 1582 01:07:39,160 --> 01:07:42,200 Speaker 1: Ebo as Land, and they really hyped it up as 1583 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:44,160 Speaker 1: a Dana White if you don't know, now you know 1584 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:48,320 Speaker 1: type of fight against Raphael Sirkara. Fifty one seconds later, 1585 01:07:48,600 --> 01:07:52,120 Speaker 1: Ebo was screaming into the microphone that he's coming at 1586 01:07:52,240 --> 01:07:56,640 Speaker 1: on or for everyone.

Yeah, it's very unfortunate. Also, how did you 1626 01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:33,320 Speaker 4: score that for Kretdinov and layout Fi. 1627 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:35,720 Speaker 1: You know, I was kind of watching it with half 1628 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,920 Speaker 1: eye on it, half folded laundry, so I don't really 1629 01:09:37,960 --> 01:09:40,759 Speaker 1: have a say in that. But they said fuck Redanoff 1630 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 1: didn't deserve that. But then he went off on the 1631 01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 1: announcers after the fight. 1632 01:09:43,400 --> 01:09:43,640 Speaker 5: He did. 1633 01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:46,519 Speaker 4: Also, Hafel Dosanjo's getting sucked up with an injury, yeah 1634 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:46,840 Speaker 4: kind of. 1635 01:09:47,000 --> 01:09:48,880 Speaker 1: I mean that's better than getting knocked out cold. But like, 1636 01:09:49,640 --> 01:09:51,680 Speaker 1: I mean, those guys will fight forever. Those I don't know, 1637 01:09:51,720 --> 01:09:53,960 Speaker 1: these Brazilian legends, man, they can just keep going. 1638 01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,160 Speaker 4: Forty years old, Sev.

I 1641 01:10:04,600 --> 01:10:08,559 Speaker 4: heard and read the fewest amounts of complaints about UFC commentary. 1642 01:10:08,720 --> 01:10:10,760 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, in the longest time I can remember. And 1643 01:10:10,880 --> 01:10:13,360 Speaker 4: actually we know that Annik is good. I think DC 1644 01:10:13,600 --> 01:10:16,080 Speaker 4: can be good. I think Felder is one of the 1645 01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:17,960 Speaker 4: best guys that they've got that combination. 1646 01:10:19,439 --> 01:10:22,240 Speaker 1: Felder knows how to be the chameleon of the broad 1647 01:10:22,280 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 1: every broadcast. If you're going to do a three man 1648 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:26,120 Speaker 1: there needs to be somebody that understands I'm playing kind 1649 01:10:26,160 --> 01:10:28,080 Speaker 1: of more than one role at the same time, but 1650 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 1: I've got to really sell for others. Compliment this, add 1651 01:10:31,160 --> 01:10:32,800 Speaker 1: on this. He's playing that that glue role. 1652 01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:35,719 Speaker 4: He's awesome at that job. And that's a good trio 1653 01:10:35,800 --> 01:10:36,439 Speaker 4: that they got there. 1654 01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, keep that great work up. Too bad they have 1655 01:10:38,400 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 1: to call it fifteen fights over eight hours. That's a 1656 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:41,160 Speaker 1: tough job, it really is. 1657 01:10:41,320 --> 01:10:43,000 Speaker 4: I hope they get paid well for it me too. 1658 01:10:43,160 --> 01:10:45,120 Speaker 1: Hey. Let's go to topic number five. And it came 1659 01:10:45,200 --> 01:10:48,160 Speaker 1: out from after UFC three h eight when Dana White 1660 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:50,800 Speaker 1: did his post see this revelation from average Joe art. 1661 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:53,360 Speaker 5: So he did one of the posters for UFC. 1662 01:10:53,240 --> 01:10:54,839 Speaker 1: For three eight and it was tremendous. 1663 01:10:54,960 --> 01:10:57,519 Speaker 4: He just tweeted us. He actually tried to add the 1664 01:10:57,600 --> 01:10:59,599 Speaker 4: BMF belt to the poster and they made him take 1665 01:10:59,600 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 4: it out. 1666 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:01,040 Speaker 1: Saw the original rough draft. 1667 01:11:01,080 --> 01:11:02,600 Speaker 4: Yes, I know it's wrong, all right. 1668 01:11:02,800 --> 01:11:04,880 Speaker 1: No tremendous work by him, but yeah, they didn't want 1669 01:11:04,920 --> 01:11:06,160 Speaker 1: to play up that, and I thought that was. 1670 01:11:06,360 --> 01:11:07,679 Speaker 5: That's fine because it wasn't on the line. 1671 01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 4: I understand that true, all right, looke. 1672 01:11:09,760 --> 01:11:12,440 Speaker 1: Topic number five is what we heard from Dana afterwards 1673 01:11:12,479 --> 01:11:17,120 Speaker 1: and most most particularly the escalation of this never ending 1674 01:11:17,200 --> 01:11:21,400 Speaker 1: feud with Francis and Ghanu. So Luke, I want to 1675 01:11:21,439 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 1: first play before I tee you up here. This was 1676 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,240 Speaker 1: Francis's response that came out a couple of days ago. 1677 01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:28,920 Speaker 1: It was in response to the last time Dana dunkdow 1678 01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:32,160 Speaker 1: on Francis and after power slap this week in Abu Dhabi. 1679 01:11:32,240 --> 01:11:32,639 Speaker 1: Let's listen. 1680 01:11:32,840 --> 01:11:35,840 Speaker 2: I think Dana is trying to make things up to 1681 01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:38,320 Speaker 2: like buy a good face in the position that he 1682 01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:41,000 Speaker 2: have lost. Dana, I have lost this in this stitution, 1683 01:11:41,200 --> 01:11:43,000 Speaker 2: and the only thing is that he can't understand it. 1684 01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:46,519 Speaker 2: Like bro, I want everything I left Like it's been 1685 01:11:46,800 --> 01:11:49,439 Speaker 2: what almost two years, and the guy is out there. 1686 01:11:49,479 --> 01:11:51,880 Speaker 2: He can't live without it. He can't handle me like 1687 01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:55,800 Speaker 2: regardless of everything that happened, I'm not about him. I 1688 01:11:56,240 --> 01:11:58,519 Speaker 2: went out there, did a fight, great fight for my 1689 01:11:58,720 --> 01:11:59,559 Speaker 2: son memory. 1690 01:11:59,720 --> 01:12:01,479 Speaker 4: But the guy is Dane. 1691 01:12:01,640 --> 01:12:03,920 Speaker 2: I don't know what is his problem. But and he 1692 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,719 Speaker 2: can make everything up as you want. That is problem. 1693 01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:09,240 Speaker 2: He needs to make a piece with himself. You could 1694 01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:12,200 Speaker 2: have just said we couldn't we didn't find an agreement 1695 01:12:12,680 --> 01:12:13,160 Speaker 2: or something. 1696 01:12:13,280 --> 01:12:14,040 Speaker 5: We couldn't find it. 1697 01:12:14,280 --> 01:12:16,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, we cann't come to a year. 1698 01:12:16,520 --> 01:12:17,840 Speaker 1: But good luck to him. 1699 01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:20,720 Speaker 2: That's it. Good for him, and we continue our life. 1700 01:12:20,760 --> 01:12:23,600 Speaker 2: What's the problem here, you know? But I think the 1701 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,760 Speaker 2: problem is that he can handle this loss. He been 1702 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:29,839 Speaker 2: praying for my I'm sure he'd been praying for my downfall. 1703 01:12:30,000 --> 01:12:32,439 Speaker 2: Then I'm just keep doing my thing rising, you know, 1704 01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:35,920 Speaker 2: since I left the UFA, in any senses, I'm more 1705 01:12:35,960 --> 01:12:38,679 Speaker 2: than what I was. And which money he's talking about 1706 01:12:38,760 --> 01:12:40,720 Speaker 2: the money that he owes me. They say, oh, we're 1707 01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,000 Speaker 2: going to backpay you from the money that we owe 1708 01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:45,080 Speaker 2: you from the tipe and see your girl fight all 1709 01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 2: that they never pay me. Now, I have made more 1710 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,000 Speaker 2: money than I would have ever made in the UFC 1711 01:12:50,080 --> 01:12:52,280 Speaker 2: I was. I would say maybe twice the money that 1712 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 2: I could have ever made in my entire UFC career 1713 01:12:55,360 --> 01:12:56,840 Speaker 2: if I had continued in the UFC. 1714 01:12:56,960 --> 01:12:57,320 Speaker 4: I don't know. 1715 01:12:57,720 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 2: But either way, if I have made less money, if 1716 01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:02,800 Speaker 2: I'm not making less money, enough money that I could 1717 01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:04,639 Speaker 2: have made the US and that would be my problem. 1718 01:13:04,720 --> 01:13:07,559 Speaker 2: Why is it a piece about me no making dash 1719 01:13:07,680 --> 01:13:10,719 Speaker 2: much money? Like, come on, man, if. 1720 01:13:10,600 --> 01:13:14,639 Speaker 1: You're uh so, that was the setup, live your life. 1721 01:13:15,200 --> 01:13:17,479 Speaker 1: That was the setup. And I know anyone that gets 1722 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:20,000 Speaker 1: any time I post anything about Twitter was like, well 1723 01:13:20,000 --> 01:13:21,840 Speaker 1: they keep asking him about it. Well, they asked Dan 1724 01:13:22,000 --> 01:13:24,360 Speaker 1: about it again after the fight's on Saturday, and here's 1725 01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:24,960 Speaker 1: his response. 1726 01:13:25,400 --> 01:13:28,320 Speaker 14: Francis isn't a good guy. Plays the good guy. I 1727 01:13:28,360 --> 01:13:30,679 Speaker 14: don't understand the language. And you know, so he seems 1728 01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:31,559 Speaker 14: like he's a nice guy. 1729 01:13:32,200 --> 01:13:32,479 Speaker 1: He's not. 1730 01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:34,200 Speaker 14: And he's just not a guy that I wanted to 1731 01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,600 Speaker 14: be in business with. We'll never be in business together. Ye, 1732 01:13:36,760 --> 01:13:38,960 Speaker 14: we don't like each other. He pulled some shit before 1733 01:13:39,000 --> 01:13:40,840 Speaker 14: the first Stepay fight and then Steve a beat the 1734 01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:43,840 Speaker 14: shit out of him. Great night. He actually actually he 1735 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:46,000 Speaker 14: owes me money because we had to watch that fight 1736 01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:47,920 Speaker 14: with him and the Black Beast. He should actually pay 1737 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:50,960 Speaker 14: me back for that fight, me praying for trust me. 1738 01:13:51,760 --> 01:13:54,640 Speaker 14: I don't think about Francis that much. The only one 1739 01:13:54,640 --> 01:13:58,599 Speaker 14: who's praying for his demise is probably the PFL, because 1740 01:13:58,600 --> 01:14:01,280 Speaker 14: they signed a shitty contract with a guy that doesn't 1741 01:14:01,320 --> 01:14:04,360 Speaker 14: deliver any numbers and ticket sales or pay per views. 1742 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:07,960 Speaker 1: So, Soluke, here's the question. Is there something about their 1743 01:14:08,040 --> 01:14:11,719 Speaker 1: business relationship that we still don't know about that went down, 1744 01:14:12,360 --> 01:14:14,840 Speaker 1: or is what Dana is doing making him the most 1745 01:14:14,920 --> 01:14:17,439 Speaker 1: petty liar and poor sport that we've ever seen in 1746 01:14:17,479 --> 01:14:20,360 Speaker 1: combat sports, Because we're going now to this guy's a 1747 01:14:20,400 --> 01:14:21,160 Speaker 1: bad guyline. 1748 01:14:22,160 --> 01:14:25,920 Speaker 4: I mean, I don't There's just so many levels to 1749 01:14:26,000 --> 01:14:29,280 Speaker 4: this that I don't even really understand. It's like, why 1750 01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,519 Speaker 4: does Dana White want us to view him as a 1751 01:14:32,720 --> 01:14:36,519 Speaker 4: strong judge of character. I think he's a decent fight promoter. 1752 01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:39,160 Speaker 1: I mean, you could say the greatest of all time 1753 01:14:39,320 --> 01:14:40,559 Speaker 1: and you wouldn't be like insane. 1754 01:14:41,120 --> 01:14:43,519 Speaker 4: I think that's a lot. I don't really buy that, 1755 01:14:43,600 --> 01:14:46,200 Speaker 4: but I he's in that conversation, I don't. But I 1756 01:14:46,280 --> 01:14:49,120 Speaker 4: do think that he is reasonably talented at the job, 1757 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:52,840 Speaker 4: for sure. But nevertheless, you know, I don't look at 1758 01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:55,200 Speaker 4: fight promoters as in any particular. 1759 01:14:55,560 --> 01:14:57,000 Speaker 5: I mean, name one fight. 1760 01:14:56,920 --> 01:14:58,960 Speaker 4: Promoter that you can think of who's a strong judge 1761 01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:00,800 Speaker 4: of character, Like are these people Mother Teresa all of 1762 01:15:00,840 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 4: a sudden or you guys that do business with you know, 1763 01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:08,880 Speaker 4: dictatorial religious monarchies and have very questionable political affiliations. And 1764 01:15:09,000 --> 01:15:10,840 Speaker 4: I could go on down the list to say nothing 1765 01:15:10,880 --> 01:15:12,840 Speaker 4: of his own personal indiscretions, Like, he's not a judge 1766 01:15:12,880 --> 01:15:15,519 Speaker 4: of character that is worth taking seriously even for a second. 1767 01:15:15,840 --> 01:15:20,040 Speaker 4: So putting that aside, again, you're right, like they're asking 1768 01:15:20,200 --> 01:15:22,360 Speaker 4: him questions and he's reacting to it. It's not like 1769 01:15:22,439 --> 01:15:24,839 Speaker 4: he's just going out of his way to make conversation 1770 01:15:24,960 --> 01:15:27,719 Speaker 4: about it. But the way in which he does react 1771 01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:30,519 Speaker 4: to them makes it seem to me. And again I'm 1772 01:15:30,520 --> 01:15:32,240 Speaker 4: reading from Afar. I don't know the answer to that, 1773 01:15:32,360 --> 01:15:36,720 Speaker 4: but that he has that he's wounded by what Francis did. 1774 01:15:36,880 --> 01:15:38,400 Speaker 4: That he is because angry. 1775 01:15:38,640 --> 01:15:41,000 Speaker 1: Now is it because somebody beat the system, somebody beat 1776 01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 1: the game? Is because he's acting like the warden shash 1777 01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:45,439 Speaker 1: Ank when he reveals and finds the hole in the wall. 1778 01:15:45,640 --> 01:15:47,880 Speaker 4: Right, Well, well here's what you can't do. I mean, yes, 1779 01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:51,479 Speaker 4: Francis did get viciously knocked out by Anthony Joshua. But like, 1780 01:15:51,640 --> 01:15:54,640 Speaker 4: imagine if you if your argument was that, I mean, 1781 01:15:54,760 --> 01:16:01,560 Speaker 4: just understand something, right, Francis has won. France has incontestably 1782 01:16:01,720 --> 01:16:05,519 Speaker 4: done not just well, really well with the choices he 1783 01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:06,719 Speaker 4: made after leaving the UFC. 1784 01:16:07,160 --> 01:16:07,799 Speaker 5: Not perfect. 1785 01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 4: He did get KO that was bad, but he got 1786 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:13,440 Speaker 4: paid an enormous sum of money for that. He overperformed 1787 01:16:13,439 --> 01:16:15,839 Speaker 4: against Tyson Fury and he just put Penn and Faheda 1788 01:16:15,920 --> 01:16:16,439 Speaker 4: to bed. 1789 01:16:16,479 --> 01:16:18,040 Speaker 1: Got an insane contract with the PFL. 1790 01:16:18,120 --> 01:16:20,160 Speaker 4: And back to that point, like PFL doesn't do numbers, 1791 01:16:20,200 --> 01:16:22,280 Speaker 4: but to the extent that they do anything, it's only 1792 01:16:22,360 --> 01:16:26,160 Speaker 4: because Francis is breathing oxygen into what they're doing. The 1793 01:16:26,200 --> 01:16:28,320 Speaker 4: point I want to make was, if Francis was a 1794 01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 4: spectacular failure, Dana White would be able to make an 1795 01:16:32,160 --> 01:16:35,400 Speaker 4: argument about Francis being a spectacular failure. Now he's trying 1796 01:16:35,439 --> 01:16:37,639 Speaker 4: to be like, well, he doesn't do numbers for the PFL, 1797 01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:39,040 Speaker 4: But I'm here to tell you, like I've seen what 1798 01:16:39,080 --> 01:16:42,120 Speaker 4: they've done, at least on the media side, and you're right, 1799 01:16:42,240 --> 01:16:44,519 Speaker 4: like they don't make PFL doesn't match UFC numbers. 1800 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:45,840 Speaker 5: That is true, that is very true. 1801 01:16:46,120 --> 01:16:49,160 Speaker 4: But to the extent that PFL does anything beyond their numbers, 1802 01:16:49,520 --> 01:16:52,760 Speaker 4: their standard baseline, it's because Francis is injecting life, no doubt, 1803 01:16:52,920 --> 01:16:54,519 Speaker 4: And so my point is, I go back to what 1804 01:16:54,600 --> 01:16:58,479 Speaker 4: Francis said. It's like, why do you say such venomous 1805 01:16:58,560 --> 01:17:02,360 Speaker 4: things about a guy who you appear to be glad 1806 01:17:02,479 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 4: he's gone? Right, Like if you know what I mean, Like, 1807 01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:11,000 Speaker 4: how shouldn't you be relieved that you're gone or that's 1808 01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:13,000 Speaker 4: gonna be that he's gone. Shouldn't you be relieved that 1809 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:16,720 Speaker 4: you're no longer encumbered by his presence or business entanglements? 1810 01:17:17,520 --> 01:17:19,320 Speaker 4: And also it's like, remember he said he was gonna 1811 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:20,880 Speaker 4: cut him. It's like, dude, you let Sam Alve hang 1812 01:17:20,920 --> 01:17:22,599 Speaker 4: around a long time and you were gonna cut Francis 1813 01:17:22,640 --> 01:17:24,639 Speaker 4: after two y Like, there's just a lot of things 1814 01:17:24,720 --> 01:17:28,320 Speaker 4: that don't hold up to scrutiny other than he's still 1815 01:17:28,400 --> 01:17:32,280 Speaker 4: really pissed about what Francis has done. And by the way, 1816 01:17:32,560 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 4: even that is okay, yeah, but. 1817 01:17:34,560 --> 01:17:36,160 Speaker 1: That was, But it's like, what is he pissed about. 1818 01:17:36,200 --> 01:17:38,720 Speaker 1: He's pissed, in my opinion, that somebody was willing to 1819 01:17:38,800 --> 01:17:40,920 Speaker 1: put their career on the line and say I'm worth 1820 01:17:41,000 --> 01:17:42,800 Speaker 1: this much and I'm gonna stand here for it. Like 1821 01:17:43,080 --> 01:17:45,639 Speaker 1: normally they can talk people out of that by talking 1822 01:17:45,680 --> 01:17:47,439 Speaker 1: bad about them and saying this guy's scared, he doesn't 1823 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:49,519 Speaker 1: want to accept this fight, and then eventually people get 1824 01:17:49,560 --> 01:17:52,280 Speaker 1: back in line. Francis never really got back in line 1825 01:17:52,360 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 1: except for to play the system and beat the system 1826 01:17:54,560 --> 01:17:57,040 Speaker 1: the hardest way possible by beating Gone and unifying the 1827 01:17:57,080 --> 01:17:59,320 Speaker 1: title with one working knee or whatever happened there. 1828 01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:02,960 Speaker 4: Clearly, I think Francis's ability to do what he's done 1829 01:18:03,080 --> 01:18:05,560 Speaker 4: and then succeed at it, by and large, is just 1830 01:18:05,640 --> 01:18:06,960 Speaker 4: a source of discomfort. 1831 01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:08,680 Speaker 1: Doesn't it feel like, though, that dan Witch is not 1832 01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:12,240 Speaker 1: used to having real negotiations in there, because it seems 1833 01:18:12,280 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 1: like all these managers are afraid and want to keep 1834 01:18:14,160 --> 01:18:15,280 Speaker 1: their relationship with. 1835 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,760 Speaker 4: UFC SoC You know this, How many times have you 1836 01:18:18,920 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 4: talked to somebody who is either a promoter or at 1837 01:18:20,520 --> 01:18:23,240 Speaker 4: least on the promoter side and they had a negotiation 1838 01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:25,640 Speaker 4: with a fighter and they lament things that they had 1839 01:18:25,680 --> 01:18:27,560 Speaker 4: to give up, and they lament things that didn't that 1840 01:18:27,640 --> 01:18:29,360 Speaker 4: you know, we lost out on this deal or whatever. 1841 01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:33,800 Speaker 4: In a sport where the negotiating environment is a little 1842 01:18:33,800 --> 01:18:36,880 Speaker 4: bit more even you'll hear promoters talk about having to 1843 01:18:37,200 --> 01:18:39,280 Speaker 4: you know, take an l here and we had to 1844 01:18:39,320 --> 01:18:42,240 Speaker 4: eat shit on this particular provision and whatnot. The UFC 1845 01:18:42,560 --> 01:18:45,320 Speaker 4: operates in an environment with that is so infrequent that 1846 01:18:45,400 --> 01:18:47,400 Speaker 4: by the time that it actually happens, or this particular case, 1847 01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:50,000 Speaker 4: someone just moved on and got a better offer, they 1848 01:18:50,040 --> 01:18:51,400 Speaker 4: have difficulty processing it. 1849 01:18:51,600 --> 01:18:54,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, they do, And I think that's why he's got 1850 01:18:54,360 --> 01:18:56,080 Speaker 1: to make him seem like a bad guy forever. 1851 01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:58,600 Speaker 4: But dude, maybe, oh oh, by the way, hold on 1852 01:18:58,760 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 4: just one second. Like, I don't think you can take 1853 01:19:01,080 --> 01:19:05,960 Speaker 4: Dana White's assessment of character as ironclad. I don't know 1854 01:19:06,200 --> 01:19:09,200 Speaker 4: if Francis is or isn't a bad guy. But from 1855 01:19:09,240 --> 01:19:11,160 Speaker 4: what I can tell from the business side of things, 1856 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:14,120 Speaker 4: what has he done that has like, from what we 1857 01:19:14,200 --> 01:19:16,560 Speaker 4: can tell against basically the information that we have, what 1858 01:19:16,800 --> 01:19:21,680 Speaker 4: has he done that has screamed to you unethical? That 1859 01:19:22,040 --> 01:19:24,360 Speaker 4: you hear stories behind the scenes about what a terrible 1860 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:24,800 Speaker 4: guy he is. 1861 01:19:25,040 --> 01:19:26,840 Speaker 1: No, the only thing I get is that he actually 1862 01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:29,240 Speaker 1: aggressively negotiates and had a manager that kind of got 1863 01:19:29,320 --> 01:19:31,719 Speaker 1: driven out of the out of the scene because. 1864 01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 4: Of that name, a manager that the UFC had to 1865 01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:37,840 Speaker 4: negotiate with and that manager played hardball with him and 1866 01:19:38,040 --> 01:19:41,160 Speaker 4: didn't get called a scumbag. Yes, Holly Holmes boxing manager 1867 01:19:41,520 --> 01:19:45,959 Speaker 4: got called a scumbag. Francis's manager, Markel got called a scumbag. 1868 01:19:46,080 --> 01:19:49,120 Speaker 4: Anybody who negotiates hard against the UFC, what do they 1869 01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:51,439 Speaker 4: win or they don't? You know, they get labeled as 1870 01:19:51,479 --> 01:19:55,479 Speaker 4: someone who is a malcontent because the entire orientation of 1871 01:19:55,520 --> 01:19:57,920 Speaker 4: the argument is everything we do is right, and to 1872 01:19:58,040 --> 01:20:00,519 Speaker 4: the extent you push back on that, you're the malcol right, 1873 01:20:00,720 --> 01:20:04,880 Speaker 4: you know, in this entire operation, Rather than we have 1874 01:20:05,000 --> 01:20:08,320 Speaker 4: our own agency, not like William Morris, I mean, as people, 1875 01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:10,599 Speaker 4: we have our own agency, We have our own interests 1876 01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:13,320 Speaker 4: and they don't necessarily align. We're trying to get to 1877 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,880 Speaker 4: a place where those could be more fairly e comment. 1878 01:20:15,960 --> 01:20:17,720 Speaker 1: So my final question on this is do you think 1879 01:20:17,880 --> 01:20:21,320 Speaker 1: Dana actually believes his BS though? And I'll give you 1880 01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:24,320 Speaker 1: the reason why he might because in his mind at 1881 01:20:24,360 --> 01:20:26,200 Speaker 1: the end, it's only about money. So when they gave 1882 01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:29,840 Speaker 1: Francis that huge offer for the one night payday against John, 1883 01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,639 Speaker 1: but then the long extended contract at a lower rate, 1884 01:20:33,120 --> 01:20:34,920 Speaker 1: in his mind, it's like you're holding me up for 1885 01:20:35,080 --> 01:20:38,120 Speaker 1: big money. So here's your big purse. Francis knew he 1886 01:20:38,160 --> 01:20:39,639 Speaker 1: could get more and was worth more, and that's why 1887 01:20:39,800 --> 01:20:41,720 Speaker 1: he is now. So do you think in Dana's mind 1888 01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:45,120 Speaker 1: he can justify saying that Francis is scared of John 1889 01:20:45,200 --> 01:20:47,040 Speaker 1: because we gave you this chance to fight him for 1890 01:20:47,160 --> 01:20:48,639 Speaker 1: what would have been heavyweight record money. 1891 01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:51,120 Speaker 4: And you said, no, yeah, this seems like a reasonable conclusion. 1892 01:20:51,200 --> 01:20:55,719 Speaker 4: I just think that they feel Again, you go back 1893 01:20:55,840 --> 01:21:00,400 Speaker 4: to what Dana White said about Judge Bullwear. I know 1894 01:21:00,640 --> 01:21:02,840 Speaker 4: there was a potential settlement that was reached, but remember 1895 01:21:02,880 --> 01:21:06,080 Speaker 4: when he rejected it. For the proposed settlement. When it 1896 01:21:06,200 --> 01:21:08,880 Speaker 4: was rejected the second time, Dana White spoke to Kevin 1897 01:21:08,920 --> 01:21:11,920 Speaker 4: Ioli and said, you know, I think it's got to 1898 01:21:11,960 --> 01:21:16,439 Speaker 4: be personal, right, what this guy is doing. And it's like, 1899 01:21:17,000 --> 01:21:19,519 Speaker 4: how do you come to that conclusion based on like 1900 01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:24,360 Speaker 4: the overwhelming mountain of evidence that they a are a 1901 01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:27,160 Speaker 4: monopoly or a monopsoony and that they use that market 1902 01:21:27,200 --> 01:21:29,800 Speaker 4: power to suppress wages. Like, let's be clear about something. 1903 01:21:30,439 --> 01:21:35,240 Speaker 4: The evidence in that case is overwhelming. It's not debatable, 1904 01:21:35,360 --> 01:21:39,360 Speaker 4: it's very very very obvious. The only way you can 1905 01:21:39,439 --> 01:21:43,680 Speaker 4: come to that conclusion, BC is if you decide that 1906 01:21:44,040 --> 01:21:48,120 Speaker 4: your behavior is above reproach. And so the only explanation 1907 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:51,120 Speaker 4: that could be there is someone wants to make it personal. Yeah, 1908 01:21:51,240 --> 01:21:53,000 Speaker 4: here we go back to that again. It makes sense 1909 01:21:53,160 --> 01:21:57,400 Speaker 4: he doesn't like the business choices that someone else made, 1910 01:21:57,720 --> 01:21:59,240 Speaker 4: so it has to become personal. 1911 01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:02,519 Speaker 5: There can't be anything that they have done. 1912 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:04,920 Speaker 4: That they have to reflect on as bad or not 1913 01:22:05,000 --> 01:22:06,880 Speaker 4: as good or even just you know, not as good 1914 01:22:06,880 --> 01:22:07,320 Speaker 4: of an offer. 1915 01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:08,479 Speaker 5: Yeah, it can't be that. 1916 01:22:08,880 --> 01:22:11,240 Speaker 4: It has to be that he has a character flaw, 1917 01:22:11,640 --> 01:22:14,479 Speaker 4: he made a bad choice. He's a bad guy, and 1918 01:22:14,680 --> 01:22:16,960 Speaker 4: we're the shining example of all things. 1919 01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:19,840 Speaker 1: Well, look, maybe you're just a hater, and maybe you're 1920 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:22,639 Speaker 1: just one of those media members who doesn't appreciate good things. 1921 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:25,600 Speaker 1: Let's hear from an a media member who tasted and 1922 01:22:25,880 --> 01:22:29,200 Speaker 1: seen if power Slap is worth their time. 1923 01:22:29,880 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 7: Hi. 1924 01:22:30,160 --> 01:22:31,640 Speaker 1: First of all, I owe you an apology. 1925 01:22:32,160 --> 01:22:34,120 Speaker 16: I was one of the people that hated powerslap.

Before as an amateur, 2103 01:30:30,520 --> 01:30:32,320 Speaker 6: it was more of a come forward fire like you 2104 01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:36,160 Speaker 6: know the other opponents of my weight class. But like 2105 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:38,000 Speaker 6: I said, I grew into my style and I think 2106 01:30:38,080 --> 01:30:39,240 Speaker 6: people appreciate that a lot. 2107 01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:43,160 Speaker 4: Bam from what I understand, as you indicated, you had 2108 01:30:43,280 --> 01:30:45,400 Speaker 4: more of a come forward style in the amateurs, and 2109 01:30:45,520 --> 01:30:48,160 Speaker 4: then it's become a lot slicker and you've added a 2110 01:30:48,200 --> 01:30:51,560 Speaker 4: whole bunch of dynamic elements to your game, including some 2111 01:30:51,640 --> 01:30:53,360 Speaker 4: of the stuff from what I understand, Correct me if 2112 01:30:53,400 --> 01:30:55,080 Speaker 4: I'm wrong from Lomachenko? 2113 01:30:55,360 --> 01:30:56,960 Speaker 5: What did you pick up from Lomachenko? 2114 01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:01,320 Speaker 6: The footwork? As an amateur, I was watching Lomachenko a lot. 2115 01:31:01,840 --> 01:31:03,559 Speaker 6: Then I just went to the gym one day, started 2116 01:31:03,600 --> 01:31:05,360 Speaker 6: working on the angle with myself on the bag and 2117 01:31:05,800 --> 01:31:08,000 Speaker 6: they just came naturally. And when I teamed over with Robert, 2118 01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:09,720 Speaker 6: I feel like he took that to a whole other level. 2119 01:31:10,800 --> 01:31:12,840 Speaker 4: Help us understand what that means though, Like obviously you 2120 01:31:12,920 --> 01:31:15,080 Speaker 4: were able to what pivot around setting new angles and 2121 01:31:15,120 --> 01:31:17,880 Speaker 4: that if you've already got a high action, high volume style, 2122 01:31:18,400 --> 01:31:21,120 Speaker 4: now you've got even more openings to land on guys. 2123 01:31:21,200 --> 01:31:22,120 Speaker 5: Is that a fair assessment? 2124 01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly. Just you hit them from one angle and 2125 01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:29,000 Speaker 6: the next second you're at another angle and they don't 2126 01:31:29,000 --> 01:31:31,280 Speaker 6: expect punch to come from that angle. So it's a 2127 01:31:31,360 --> 01:31:35,200 Speaker 6: very hard style to deal with. But you know, like 2128 01:31:35,280 --> 01:31:37,080 Speaker 6: I said, naturally it came to me.

It's unique to get two big stars. I 2151 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:34,280 Speaker 1: mean we saw that recently with Tank Davis and David 2152 01:32:34,320 --> 01:32:36,880 Speaker 1: Benivita sharing a pay per view. How did this come together? 2153 01:32:37,000 --> 01:32:38,800 Speaker 1: And where you will all? You know, all in from 2154 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:39,360 Speaker 1: the start on this. 2155 01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:42,479 Speaker 6: Honestly, as far as they coming together, I don't know 2156 01:32:42,560 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 6: how it happened. I was supposed to remat as guy 2157 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,320 Speaker 6: was started, I believe in San Antonio, but he put 2158 01:32:47,360 --> 01:32:49,320 Speaker 6: out of that, so I guess it just kind of 2159 01:32:49,320 --> 01:32:51,920 Speaker 6: fell into place, and then I have to face my 2160 01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:55,759 Speaker 6: mandatory Pedro Givada, and then I guess Boots had November 2161 01:32:55,880 --> 01:32:58,800 Speaker 6: ninth originally, so they just I guess they just kind 2162 01:32:58,800 --> 01:33:01,439 Speaker 6: of threw me on there. But it works out, like 2163 01:33:01,560 --> 01:33:03,240 Speaker 6: you said, we're both they signing fighters going to be 2164 01:33:03,240 --> 01:33:04,360 Speaker 6: a grain out of boxing. 2165 01:33:04,640 --> 01:33:06,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt about it. And you took on the 2166 01:33:06,400 --> 01:33:09,559 Speaker 1: legend onan Francisco Estrada in June and you stopped him 2167 01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:12,519 Speaker 1: in the seventh round. There was that mandatory part of 2168 01:33:12,560 --> 01:33:14,240 Speaker 1: the contract that you said you thought he was going 2169 01:33:14,280 --> 01:33:16,759 Speaker 1: to activate. What do you think happened with his decision 2170 01:33:16,880 --> 01:33:18,519 Speaker 1: to not go in this direction a second time? 2171 01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:19,360 Speaker 3: Now? 2172 01:33:19,360 --> 01:33:19,760 Speaker 4: I don't know. 2173 01:33:21,160 --> 01:33:22,920 Speaker 6: I mean this whole time, I really thought we were 2174 01:33:22,960 --> 01:33:25,360 Speaker 6: going to rematch. I was back home waiting for about 2175 01:33:25,800 --> 01:33:28,160 Speaker 6: a month and a half, two months, and from one 2176 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:29,760 Speaker 6: day to the next, it was just he put out 2177 01:33:29,800 --> 01:33:31,479 Speaker 6: of the fight. I was ready training for the rematch, 2178 01:33:31,520 --> 01:33:33,840 Speaker 6: and then I got news that he put out. I 2179 01:33:33,880 --> 01:33:35,439 Speaker 6: didn't even know I was in a fight still, but 2180 01:33:36,160 --> 01:33:38,639 Speaker 6: then I got word that I had to face my mandatory. 2181 01:33:38,800 --> 01:33:41,720 Speaker 6: So that's why I'm hearing training camp ready for November ninth. 2182 01:33:42,800 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 1: I mean, what was it like yelling in the ring 2183 01:33:44,240 --> 01:33:47,000 Speaker 1: with Estrata, because this was your ultimate testing moment for 2184 01:33:47,040 --> 01:33:48,560 Speaker 1: a lot of us as fans. Okay, let's see on 2185 01:33:48,680 --> 01:33:51,720 Speaker 1: this level. Was that wild for you so early into 2186 01:33:51,760 --> 01:33:53,479 Speaker 1: your career to be in there again against a guy 2187 01:33:53,520 --> 01:33:55,280 Speaker 1: I'm sure you watched when you were a kid on 2188 01:33:55,320 --> 01:33:55,680 Speaker 1: the come up. 2189 01:33:57,200 --> 01:33:58,680 Speaker 6: When I got in the ring with the Strata, it 2190 01:33:58,800 --> 01:34:01,160 Speaker 6: wasn't it really was shocked. It was more of a 2191 01:34:01,200 --> 01:34:03,320 Speaker 6: shock when I faced Carlos squat Us, just because it 2192 01:34:03,439 --> 01:34:06,280 Speaker 6: was a short notice and I was watching Carlos Quala 2193 01:34:06,520 --> 01:34:08,760 Speaker 6: as an amateur as well, so to share the ring 2194 01:34:08,840 --> 01:34:11,439 Speaker 6: with him it was a bit crazy. And after that 2195 01:34:11,479 --> 01:34:12,800 Speaker 6: I fart wrung with that, and I kind of just 2196 01:34:12,840 --> 01:34:14,240 Speaker 6: got used to being in the ring with these guys. 2197 01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:15,680 Speaker 6: So when I went in there with the Strata, it 2198 01:34:15,800 --> 01:34:17,120 Speaker 6: was just any other fight, really. 2199 01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:21,360 Speaker 1: Any other fight against rung visades against the Strata. Well, 2200 01:34:21,360 --> 01:34:23,120 Speaker 1: if we're going to continue this trend, and this is 2201 01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:25,240 Speaker 1: not a disrespect to Pedro Gavar, we'll get to him 2202 01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:28,000 Speaker 1: for a second. But sometimes I'll read headlines and I'm like, 2203 01:34:28,600 --> 01:34:30,600 Speaker 1: did I just read the truckle of Tito isn't going 2204 01:34:30,680 --> 01:34:32,560 Speaker 1: to retire and he doesn't want to retire until he 2205 01:34:32,600 --> 01:34:36,320 Speaker 1: fights Bam Rodriguez. How realistic is this super fight to 2206 01:34:36,439 --> 01:34:37,880 Speaker 1: happening for you in the near future. 2207 01:34:38,640 --> 01:34:43,040 Speaker 6: I mean, it's a fight that's definitely realistic, But the 2208 01:34:43,120 --> 01:34:45,160 Speaker 6: way the news got out was kind of fake news. 2209 01:34:47,120 --> 01:34:49,800 Speaker 6: The thing my coach my coach, Roberts said, is if 2210 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:53,200 Speaker 6: the unification fights don't come after this fight, then Tarlatio 2211 01:34:53,280 --> 01:34:55,680 Speaker 6: fight does interest us if it's if it interests them 2212 01:34:55,720 --> 01:34:58,160 Speaker 6: as well. So it kind of just got mixed up. 2213 01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:01,880 Speaker 6: But it is a which possibility of us fighting, I believe. 2214 01:35:02,960 --> 01:35:05,000 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's some legend stuff right there, the 2215 01:35:05,080 --> 01:35:07,720 Speaker 1: former pound for pound king, but he still got it. 2216 01:35:08,120 --> 01:35:09,680 Speaker 1: What would a fight between the two of you. 2217 01:35:09,800 --> 01:35:14,400 Speaker 6: Look like fireworks? I actually sparred him like three times 2218 01:35:14,439 --> 01:35:17,559 Speaker 6: for their started camp, and man, those spartings were one 2219 01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:19,720 Speaker 6: of the best of my whole careers. So a fight 2220 01:35:19,800 --> 01:35:21,479 Speaker 6: with us would be fireworks, and I think the fans 2221 01:35:21,479 --> 01:35:22,200 Speaker 6: would appreciate it. 2222 01:35:22,960 --> 01:35:25,360 Speaker 1: All Right, you got this mandatory opponent coming up November 2223 01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:27,840 Speaker 1: ninth in Philly. Like we talked about Boots and Us 2224 01:35:27,840 --> 01:35:29,280 Speaker 1: in the main event, but you're gonna be taking on 2225 01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:32,360 Speaker 1: Pedro Gavara, a veteran of this game. What are you 2226 01:35:32,439 --> 01:35:34,439 Speaker 1: looking for across the ring from you? What do you 2227 01:35:34,520 --> 01:35:36,120 Speaker 1: have to watch out for against this cat? 2228 01:35:37,080 --> 01:35:37,200 Speaker 4: Uh? 2229 01:35:37,320 --> 01:35:40,200 Speaker 6: Really, I gotta watch out for everything. I said it before. 2230 01:35:40,280 --> 01:35:43,120 Speaker 6: Pedro Givada he has losing everything to gain. This is 2231 01:35:43,160 --> 01:35:45,240 Speaker 6: a huge opportunity for him to change his life, change 2232 01:35:45,280 --> 01:35:47,960 Speaker 6: his career. So I know he's gonna come one hundred percent. 2233 01:35:48,680 --> 01:35:50,760 Speaker 6: He's gonna want to take what I have. But I'm 2234 01:35:50,760 --> 01:35:52,280 Speaker 6: at the top of my game right now and I 2235 01:35:52,320 --> 01:35:54,880 Speaker 6: don't I really don't see anybody beating me anytime soon. 2236 01:35:55,880 --> 01:35:59,360 Speaker 4: Now listen, Bam, you're all action, all excitement and just 2237 01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:02,720 Speaker 4: doing great things.

But 2288 01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:01,960 Speaker 6: I mean, before I started boxing, I really didn't care 2289 01:38:02,040 --> 01:38:04,120 Speaker 6: for I didn't watch it at all, and one day 2290 01:38:04,720 --> 01:38:06,920 Speaker 6: I just decided to tag along with my brother and 2291 01:38:07,320 --> 01:38:08,240 Speaker 6: the rest is history. 2292 01:38:08,920 --> 01:38:10,840 Speaker 1: Now can you fill in this backstory?

I started homeschooling in seventh grade and then I 2296 01:38:18,280 --> 01:38:20,600 Speaker 6: kind of just I stopped going to that because it 2297 01:38:20,720 --> 01:38:23,800 Speaker 6: was boring and I wanted to pursue my career. Here 2298 01:38:23,880 --> 01:38:24,880 Speaker 6: I am. Now it kind of worked. 2299 01:38:26,080 --> 01:38:27,680 Speaker 4: Do you ever do you ever look back and say, 2300 01:38:28,520 --> 01:38:31,000 Speaker 4: I don't know, listen, you're killing the game, like it's 2301 01:38:31,040 --> 01:38:33,120 Speaker 4: not one of those things. But do you ever look 2302 01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:34,760 Speaker 4: back and say, damn, I wish I would have gone 2303 01:38:34,760 --> 01:38:37,280 Speaker 4: to prom or something like some kind of like high 2304 01:38:37,320 --> 01:38:39,040 Speaker 4: school experience or something like that. 2305 01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:41,639 Speaker 6: Yeah, actually I do. I mean, don't get me wrong. 2306 01:38:42,200 --> 01:38:44,600 Speaker 6: High school seems fun, But who knows if I did 2307 01:38:44,680 --> 01:38:46,960 Speaker 6: go to school, where my career would be now, So 2308 01:38:47,560 --> 01:38:49,360 Speaker 6: it's kind of hard to tell. I don't really mind 2309 01:38:49,400 --> 01:38:52,880 Speaker 6: missing out on that. Like I said, it all worked out, 2310 01:38:52,960 --> 01:38:54,360 Speaker 6: so I'm blessed to be where I am at. 2311 01:38:55,000 --> 01:38:57,160 Speaker 1: Well, Bam, it might be surreal with your name showing 2312 01:38:57,240 --> 01:38:58,800 Speaker 1: up in the top ten pound for pound list, but 2313 01:38:58,840 --> 01:39:01,879 Speaker 1: it's deserved. But when you look at the landscape globally 2314 01:39:01,960 --> 01:39:04,360 Speaker 1: right now, and you can make arguments probably for Usik, 2315 01:39:04,439 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 1: for for Boots for in a way, I mean, Canelo 2316 01:39:07,240 --> 01:39:09,080 Speaker 1: is still around. Who is your pomp for pound king 2317 01:39:09,280 --> 01:39:11,640 Speaker 1: at the moment? And why my pound for. 2318 01:39:11,720 --> 01:39:14,040 Speaker 6: Pound king right now is I would say Usik just 2319 01:39:14,120 --> 01:39:18,680 Speaker 6: because I mean he beat Fury. Fury was undefeated. They're heavyweights, 2320 01:39:18,760 --> 01:39:21,240 Speaker 6: so that's you know, top of the top, and I 2321 01:39:21,520 --> 01:39:24,479 Speaker 6: feel like he kind of dominated of Fury in a way, 2322 01:39:24,560 --> 01:39:26,599 Speaker 6: so that's why he's my pomp for pound king right now. 2323 01:39:27,160 --> 01:39:29,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll see that rematch in December, and obviously better 2324 01:39:29,479 --> 01:39:32,800 Speaker 1: Bev is there as well. But November ninth, Saturday, Philadelphia, 2325 01:39:33,000 --> 01:39:34,479 Speaker 1: Oh please hit him up, hit him up. 2326 01:39:34,600 --> 01:39:37,000 Speaker 4: If it ever happens, then it probably won't. But if 2327 01:39:37,040 --> 01:39:40,360 Speaker 4: it does, Canelo and Crawford, how does that one look? 2328 01:39:41,640 --> 01:39:43,000 Speaker 6: Oh, that's a that's a tough fight. 2329 01:39:44,400 --> 01:39:44,560 Speaker 4: You know. 2330 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:47,960 Speaker 6: Canella has a size advantage, but Crawford has a skill 2331 01:39:48,040 --> 01:39:50,720 Speaker 6: of like no others. So I feel like it's a 2332 01:39:50,760 --> 01:39:52,400 Speaker 6: fifty to fifty fight really at the end of the day. 2333 01:39:52,600 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 6: But if they were at a file would favorite Crawford. 2334 01:39:56,080 --> 01:39:59,240 Speaker 4: Wow wow wow, Uh, skills win fights. 2335 01:39:59,400 --> 01:40:01,200 Speaker 1: Let me add on that, bam, how high and weight 2336 01:40:01,360 --> 01:40:02,360 Speaker 1: do you see yourself going? 2337 01:40:04,000 --> 01:40:06,000 Speaker 6: I would say one twenty six point thirty. 2338 01:40:07,640 --> 01:40:09,599 Speaker 1: That you know in a way hangs around in those 2339 01:40:09,640 --> 01:40:10,160 Speaker 1: areas you know. 2340 01:40:10,320 --> 01:40:12,280 Speaker 4: And by the way, as I understand it, you're like, 2341 01:40:12,479 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 4: great me if I'm wrong, your like favorite vacation spot 2342 01:40:15,520 --> 01:40:16,040 Speaker 4: is Japan? 2343 01:40:16,200 --> 01:40:17,799 Speaker 5: Is that right?
