The 33 00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 1: UFC two eighty nine Comayne was great, and the two 34 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,559 Speaker 1: eighty nine main event wasn't bad really by Amanda's fault. 35 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: But I didn't get a lot from it, right, Like 36 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 1: we'll talk about here in just a second, But how 37 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 1: much did you enjoy the main event?

Let's kick this off 75 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: topic number one. We start with what you would understand 76 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,960 Speaker 1: UFC two eighty nine's main event. I just asked BC 77 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,800 Speaker 1: if he enjoyed it. I didn't love it from that standpoint. 78 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 1: From that standpoint, that left a lot to be desired. 79 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: But of course, Amanda Donez defends her bantamweight title in 80 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 1: a what looked like to me a very overmatched certainly 81 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: mentally eat inna Al Donna BC. I'll ask the question 82 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: this way, what did the result say about both competitors? 83 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 2: Uh? For Amanda, it turns out she was as great 84 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: as we thought she woon. Whoa that is that's a 85 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: sult brother. Wow. Okay, sorry about that? Look, sorry about that? 86 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: All right, We'll start all over here we go. Look, 87 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 2: it ultimately said that Amanda was as great as we 88 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: thought she was I think this double downs and supports 89 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 2: the idea of what I was arguing with that the 90 00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 2: first fight against Juliana Pana was an aberration. She fixed 91 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 2: that in the rematch, and look, this was absolute domination, 92 00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:22,320 Speaker 2: separate from the retirement for a second. You saw after 93 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 2: the fight when she brought in that decorated Brazilian grappler 94 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:27,239 Speaker 2: by her side to celebrate and said she had really 95 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:29,680 Speaker 2: put in the work. This is what Amanda Newness has 96 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 2: done throughout her career. Fill in the blanks, round out 97 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,839 Speaker 2: the rough edges, evolve her game to the full level. 98 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,720 Speaker 2: She did what she want now the threat of all 99 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 2: Donna's punching power, even though al Donna ultimately laid a 100 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 2: massive egg in this fight, it was still there after 101 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 2: the first round when Amanda got rocked. But I really 102 00:04:48,520 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 2: liked the way Amanda navigated that, eventually realizing all Donna 103 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 2: was just not going to throw back, and she really 104 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,359 Speaker 2: stepped on the gas and took control, mixed in the 105 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: takedowns very effectively. Look, this was a thorough of performance 106 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: across the board. But there's that other half of the equation, Luke. 107 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 2: I hate to say this because I do have a 108 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 2: lot of respect for a renae al Donna. I have 109 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 2: a ton of respect for the boom of Mexican mma 110 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 2: at the moment, but she didn't come to win. She 111 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: was rattled. She had a moment in the first round, 112 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 2: never could capitalize on it. This was about as I mean, 113 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 2: this is what Amanda does to be fair right, think 114 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,279 Speaker 2: that Megan Anderson fight. Anytime people can come in with confidence, 115 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 2: a game plan, they feel her power, she shuts them down. 116 00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 2: The reason why this was so disappointing from all Donna, 117 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 2: in my opinion, was over the five rounds. What did 118 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 2: she show you that all that hype talk she said 119 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 2: about my number one aspect of strength of why I 120 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 2: no I can beat this is because I'm Mexican. I 121 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,400 Speaker 2: have that heart. Luke, she does have that heart. She 122 00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 2: took incredible punishment and kept hanging in there, but she 123 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: never put her foot on the gas. She never gave 124 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: herself a chance to win. To see that breakout over 125 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 2: twenty five full minutes when she's showing us she has 126 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: the chin to take big shots and try to break 127 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: down the machine gen once again like Paanya did against Nuna's. 128 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 2: The fact that al Donna could not would not I'm 129 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:09,600 Speaker 2: really not sure. It's incredibly disappointing. It does not take away, 130 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,240 Speaker 2: in my opinion, the Nunis victory. It does not take 131 00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: away from the grandeur of Nunas's retirement and celebration. But 132 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 2: for al Donna, she's way better than the performance she 133 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,599 Speaker 2: indicated out there on Saturday night, and that was tough 134 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 2: to see, knowing the work she puts in, and our 135 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,560 Speaker 2: expectations was that this was going to be a step 136 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 2: up from the original scheduled trilogy about against Painya in 137 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 2: terms of danger. Didn't turn out that way. 138 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:36,880 Speaker 1: In the end, No, it certainly didn't. On the Amanda SIDEBC, 139 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 1: I really I think I agree with your analysis. I 140 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: don't really take much from her. What does she do? 141 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,119 Speaker 1: She shows up again with that one sort of slip 142 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 1: up against Juliana Pinna in this most recent grand run 143 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: She's been on and it's hard to stay on top 144 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: for any number of reasons. In that particular case, she 145 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: had a misjudgment about what she was capable of through 146 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:56,520 Speaker 1: a certain series of obstacles, decided she could overpower it. 147 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: In the end she fell short, but then getting back 148 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: and doing the kind of work that required for a 149 00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:03,160 Speaker 1: champion put her right back on top and maintained her 150 00:07:03,200 --> 00:07:05,080 Speaker 1: that way. So she did the things that she was 151 00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 1: supposed to do that she is essentially in control of. 152 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: I would have liked to have seen her put away 153 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: al Donna, given her reserve she was, but I get 154 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: that if you already know you might be retiring, getting 155 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: that w especially in a very dominant way, is pretty important. 156 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean, this is not anything we've not ever seen before. 157 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 1: But we should also make a point about Amanda noon 158 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:24,080 Speaker 1: as here, Like she wins fights with her jiu jitsu. 159 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: At times, she's one fights with her wrestling, she's one 160 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,239 Speaker 1: fights with her striking dude. She won this fight before 161 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: it even started on vibes like she had al Donna 162 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: so intimidated. It made al Donna being who she normally 163 00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 1: even is very difficult. And I ordinarily would point to 164 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 1: like stats to say, for example, Alexander Volkovski when he 165 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,400 Speaker 1: fights his opponents, one thing you often see show up 166 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: in the stat line is that he suppresses their overall volume. 167 00:07:50,680 --> 00:07:53,720 Speaker 1: Certainly that shows up in this contest. But it's again 168 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: not taking away in a credit from Amanda, because she 169 00:07:55,520 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: did the kind of thing she ordinarily does. But al 170 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,280 Speaker 1: Donna's attempted volume was a third of what it normally is, 171 00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 1: and it was all because she was just I mean, dude, 172 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: she did the Joshua Claudy against many Pakiao bit, remember 173 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 1: that where he just put up his hands and then 174 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:13,720 Speaker 1: sat behind this and then just basically didn't try to 175 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,119 Speaker 1: win at all, while Pacia was sort of like teeing 176 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: off as best he could. That's what it was. It 177 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,160 Speaker 1: was Joshua Claudi versus Manny Pacquiao all over again. And 178 00:08:21,200 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 1: I'm sorry to say I agree with you. That's not 179 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: the best case. That's really not a great showcase of 180 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: who al Donna is? 181 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:32,440 Speaker 2: Okay? Nicely? Can we be bought and fair? Luke? She 182 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 2: laid a fat egg and if she doesn't bounce back 183 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,839 Speaker 2: from this, and I'll give her the chance to, and 184 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 2: I hope she does, this is the kind of thing 185 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: that's gonna eat at her forever. I mean, who should 186 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:42,560 Speaker 2: feel worse, Luke, the performance of Sarah Gone against John 187 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,040 Speaker 2: Jones or al Donna against Nunas. I think I have 188 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 2: to take the ladder. She just didn't put herself in 189 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 2: positions to try to win the fight. How do you 190 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,840 Speaker 2: do that? After hurting Nunas in round one, after proving 191 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,280 Speaker 2: you can take her power, how do you just go 192 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:59,600 Speaker 2: into that shell. I'm not a fighter. I'm not criticizing 193 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,160 Speaker 2: her and say you should have done this in that 194 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 2: I'm just saying I'm disappointed for her, knowing the pressure 195 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 2: on her shoulders, the momentum of her coming into this fight, 196 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: the country behind her. This is going to be a 197 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:12,079 Speaker 2: tough pill to swallow it. 198 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,040 Speaker 1: This is a I mean, we should be honest about 199 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:16,760 Speaker 1: it again, because that's the job here. It's not to 200 00:09:16,800 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: be offensively critical, it's to be direct with the audience. 201 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,280 Speaker 1: This is one of the if you put a list 202 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:26,720 Speaker 1: of the top five worst performances in a title fight, 203 00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: certainly in the women's side of the game, this would 204 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:30,079 Speaker 1: be right up there with some of the worst ones 205 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,839 Speaker 1: I've ever seen. Now, there have been other cases where guys, 206 00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:36,520 Speaker 1: to your point, Cyril Ghan got finished hm very quickly 207 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 1: against John Jones, who was terribly overmatched. You go back 208 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: to Ny Quarry getting kind of snuffed out by Rich Franklin. 209 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: That was another sort of a performance where one guy 210 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: was really well ahead of the other one. This was 211 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 1: something like that. She survived because of the defensiveness. But 212 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: this is a you know, if not the worst performance 213 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 1: in women's history for a title fight. In the conversation, 214 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,560 Speaker 1: I mean, it's really that bad. And you know, she 215 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 1: said something like afterwards, like I figured out what the 216 00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: block is and it won't happen next time, which probably 217 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,959 Speaker 1: that's true. I don't know that any way, I can 218 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: dispute it. But like, if you're thirty five years of 219 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: age and you have a bit of a dud in 220 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 1: a title fight, you're gonna have to do a lot 221 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: of work just to get back, and in all likelihood 222 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: probably won't get back at all. I mean, that's really 223 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 1: the reality that she's facing. I mean, I wouldn't want 224 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:18,200 Speaker 1: to go down here and be seal quickly. I wouldn't 225 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 1: want to say, oh, it'll never happen, but like forced 226 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: to bet gun to my head and my gun to 227 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,800 Speaker 1: my head would say that's that's gonna be her last 228 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:25,280 Speaker 1: title show. 229 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 2: We're going to talk about the future of these two 230 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:29,760 Speaker 2: women's divisions in the wake of Amanda's retirement later in 231 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:32,360 Speaker 2: the show. But what's going in all Downa's favor is 232 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:34,360 Speaker 2: the fact that there's going to be a vacant title 233 00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,200 Speaker 2: now for at one thirty five, and this is still 234 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:40,560 Speaker 2: a very shallow division at this moment. But yes, you're 235 00:10:40,600 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: gonna have to She's not gonna, you know, be fighting 236 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 2: the number one contender next and be back in there. 237 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,720 Speaker 2: She's gonna have to go back to the drawing board 238 00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 2: and earn it at thirty five. It is asking a 239 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,320 Speaker 2: lot of her, but let's see, let's give her credit 240 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,439 Speaker 2: and see how she'll bounce. 241 00:10:51,200 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 1: Back from this, but also b see just to go 242 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 1: back to the part about newnaz here, I don't want 243 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: to escape, don't you agree? Like I mean, part of 244 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: what is being a great champion is being able to 245 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: correct for mistakes. Is one, having a high level of 246 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: skill obviously is two being able to rally out of 247 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 1: deficits as three. But the challengers talk about this. They 248 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 1: talk about sometimes when you know, getting announced in the 249 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,080 Speaker 1: main event makes them get a little bit rattled the 250 00:11:18,080 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: first time that ever happens to them, well, the first 251 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,960 Speaker 1: time they're in a title fight or whatever. There can 252 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: be all the and then the aura of the opponent 253 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: in front of you. Amanda Nunez had that part right 254 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: where people to all have to talk about you don't 255 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:30,439 Speaker 1: have to just beat that fighter, you have to get 256 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: over your own insecurities about whether or not you're ready 257 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,600 Speaker 1: for this moment and what that challenge represents. Amanda Nunez 258 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 1: is such an establishment figure of power at Women's Bands Away, 259 00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:43,160 Speaker 1: obviously as the champion, but more than that, she certainly 260 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,280 Speaker 1: has transcended just that role that she's able to walk 261 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,320 Speaker 1: into these fights now and have these people on the 262 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: back foot mentally before the bell even rings. I mean, 263 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: al Donna went into that contest when the fight began 264 00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: completely unprepared to win it. I know she trained hard, 265 00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: That's not what I'm saying, but to put yourself in 266 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: the competitive minds, she was shook. I think it overwhelmed her. 267 00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 1: And to be a fighter like Nunez who can do 268 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: that to opponents also speaks to sort of her legendary 269 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 1: status at this point. 270 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 2: And here's why I feel bad for her. Luke, even 271 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 2: if these sort of stereotypes aren't fair and shouldn't be 272 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 2: still hung around. The Mexican combat sports stereotype is go 273 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 2: out on your shield, right. I think of Julio says 274 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:25,400 Speaker 2: ershav Senior, eat three to connect with one right, just 275 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:30,080 Speaker 2: constant pressure, risk it all. You know, she's the one 276 00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 2: who had touted that superpower being that Mexican strength. I 277 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 2: know it's in there. We've seen that, that willingness. She 278 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,800 Speaker 2: just took a beating for twenty five minutes without much 279 00:12:37,800 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 2: in return. But I think for her own self, respect 280 00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 2: for her own reputation, she would have been better off 281 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:47,400 Speaker 2: listening to the corner and just letting the hands go 282 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 2: and let what happens happens, because at least she would 283 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 2: know that she gave herself the best opportunity to win 284 00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,400 Speaker 2: in the biggest moment of her career. That didn't happen. 285 00:12:56,400 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 2: And that's why I feel bad, Luke. It's not that 286 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 2: any of us are not in to you know, stage 287 00:13:01,640 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: fright or or performance is going under because of ourselves. 288 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 2: You got to get out of your own way every 289 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 2: single day in this world, right. I feel bad for 290 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,200 Speaker 2: her that in this moment she couldn't, even though the 291 00:13:11,200 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 2: corner was really pressing on her to do exactly that. 292 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing I've been critical of corners 293 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: in MMA where they're like, oh, they'll justify a lot 294 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:26,720 Speaker 1: of very questionable situations in fights in service to this 295 00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:29,199 Speaker 1: idea that it's a title fight, this is your only chance. 296 00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:31,240 Speaker 1: You better go out and risk it. Like when both 297 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: knees were blown from Thiago Santos against John Jones, I 298 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:36,439 Speaker 1: often had to hear, hey, you gotta let it go, man, 299 00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,960 Speaker 1: this might be his one and only time. And I'm 300 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:41,559 Speaker 1: a big I'm a big I questioned a lot of 301 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: the wisdom of that, because I think the reality is, 302 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: not only does it really make your chances of winning 303 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 1: in that fight not very great, but you're going to 304 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:50,719 Speaker 1: really affect someone's long term quality of life and they're 305 00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,240 Speaker 1: really not going to be able to rehab their career 306 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,719 Speaker 1: potentially on their age right. So I'm not one of 307 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,440 Speaker 1: those people who's like, you should just do anything on 308 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 1: the altar of it's a title fight and whatever. But 309 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: here's the thing I don't get PC. I don't even 310 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,560 Speaker 1: mind that she was really, really, really reserved for the 311 00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 1: first three rounds or even two and a half rounds. 312 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:11,720 Speaker 1: You know, if you want to have a game plan 313 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: of just kind of shell up, not take a lot 314 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: of damage, get a ton of reads, and really kind 315 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: of begin to just open up a little bit, but 316 00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 1: then step on the gas in the fourth and fifth 317 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: knowing you're gonna get hit a little bit. I hit 318 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:25,560 Speaker 1: a lot, probably even but that's gonna be your best 319 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: chance to surprise her, to blitz her, drain her a 320 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: little bit, and then put a push on the end, 321 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,880 Speaker 1: because we know amandan As has probably not got the 322 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: very best cardio in that division. Al Donna has really 323 00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,280 Speaker 1: really good volume and really good ability to do that, 324 00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,760 Speaker 1: because you're gonna get hit anyway. Because here's my point 325 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: of BC. She kind of slowly opened up at the 326 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: end and was still so kind of shook that she 327 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 1: was kind of running into problems rather than setting up 328 00:14:48,640 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: things more naturally. It's not that even mind that she 329 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 1: was reserved in order to preserve herself, but even when 330 00:14:54,960 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 1: there was a strategic opening very very late, she still 331 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: didn't take it and yet still ended up getting beaten 332 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: up in the process. Like she got all of the 333 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 1: worst of the outcomes with like none of the other 334 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: redeeming parts that sometimes come with it. It was just 335 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: all bad in the end. It really, I'm sad to say, 336 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 1: it really blew up in her face. 337 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, look, do we go back and be 338 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:19,040 Speaker 2: hypercritical of how she got here? I was hypercritical of 339 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 2: her lost to Holly Holm with how which with how 340 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 2: the ease in which she was controlled on the ground, 341 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 2: and I did get a lot of haters going, Man, 342 00:15:25,800 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 2: this guy BC won't stop simp and newness. Don't they 343 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 2: realize al Donna had a bad COVID reaction ahead of 344 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 2: that fight. She had a foot injury. That may have 345 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 2: all been true, lou true, but against the two most 346 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 2: elite names she has faced. Now you know she didn't 347 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:40,440 Speaker 2: like lay an egg against Home on this level, but 348 00:15:40,520 --> 00:15:43,320 Speaker 2: she came up empty in a fight trajectory why she 349 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 2: probably should have won coming off of the Kaitlyn Vietna knockout. 350 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 2: Do we look back on her resume and really see 351 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 2: anything outside of that ko that I mentioned that tells 352 00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 2: us she could have done this against Amanda? Were we 353 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:57,840 Speaker 2: asking too much of her? Were we lumping her into 354 00:15:57,880 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 2: a group of Mexican mma momentum that she wasn't necessarily 355 00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,640 Speaker 2: served for. That's fair, That's not fair probably in the 356 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:09,200 Speaker 2: aftermath to you know, add extra insult to injury here. 357 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 2: But this is a shallow division in this era. It 358 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,520 Speaker 2: wasn't always Amanda cleaned out this division with one Hall 359 00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 2: of Famer after another that she finished well. Right now, 360 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 2: you can get to the top quickly without a monster 361 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 2: swing of big wins against people. Was she of this 362 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: ilk Luke? 363 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,840 Speaker 1: If you if you lay an egg to the extent 364 00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: that she laid, there's always a real question about whether 365 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 1: or not that's true. It's very hard for me to 366 00:16:35,920 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: be like, oh, you know, listen, I was I think 367 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 1: I think I got all of my pics wrong. For okay, Bet, 368 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,680 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm truly no better than a Columbus monkey 369 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: flipping a coin at this point, but neither here nor there. 370 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 1: I'm not upset that she got the title shot. I'm 371 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: not upset that they didn't have a lot of great 372 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:54,480 Speaker 1: options in this division, and that there may have been 373 00:16:54,520 --> 00:16:57,760 Speaker 1: a somewhat overstated case for her, but it wasn't egregious 374 00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 1: in my mind. I think you could have done it, 375 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 1: and they did it, and I didn't. I didn't complain 376 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,400 Speaker 1: about that, and again they wanted this was supposed to 377 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: be the Pinya trilogy. I think most people were just 378 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: glad to get something fresh, to be honest with you. 379 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 1: So there's that part. And also she does have the 380 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:12,680 Speaker 1: two wins, the Jana Santos win of the ground upend. 381 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,920 Speaker 1: I believe that was a little bit early, but nevertheless, 382 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: it was a it was a win, and then the 383 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 1: Macy Chassen fight BC. Remember she had that amazing back 384 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:25,320 Speaker 1: heel to the liver from her back to the standing 385 00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:27,479 Speaker 1: opponent and then she just kind of heel struck her 386 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,119 Speaker 1: and then and then got up and did it. So 387 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 1: she looked like she was, like, I don't know, doing 388 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 1: interesting things. Maybe head leveled up, was figuring out new 389 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,560 Speaker 1: attacks or just you know, really in this zone offensively. 390 00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:39,239 Speaker 1: I think you could have made that argument. But then 391 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 1: when you show up and you have a you have 392 00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: a guard that is designed for close range contact to 393 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,639 Speaker 1: catch things on, and you're far apart enough where they 394 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 1: can't even kick you, and so because your hands are locked, 395 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: you can't really faint all that. Well, you do a 396 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:54,800 Speaker 1: little bit, but not much, and you do that for 397 00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:57,080 Speaker 1: the majority of the fight. You gotta be fucking kidding me, man, 398 00:17:57,119 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: Like you're not. You're just never gonna beat You gonna 399 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:03,320 Speaker 1: beat anybody good much less Amanda Nuna is doing that, 400 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:04,120 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. 401 00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,040 Speaker 2: Look, do you think Macy Chezon goes to sleep at 402 00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 2: night saying if only I was a Latino, Luke would 403 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 2: pronounce my last name correctly. 404 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:14,360 Speaker 1: Yes, dude, I really can't overstate it. There is something. 405 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:16,280 Speaker 1: I mean, this will not come as a great surprise 406 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: to the listeners and the viewers that are something wrong 407 00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,919 Speaker 1: with my brain. But there is a particular block with 408 00:18:21,119 --> 00:18:23,880 Speaker 1: her name that for some reason I have such great 409 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 1: difficulty putting that into the smoothed out brain that I 410 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 1: now have at this point and locking it into the 411 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:32,680 Speaker 1: memory bank. There is something wonderful. 412 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,880 Speaker 2: Okay, your brain's beautiful and I look forward to to 413 00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 2: matching up with your brain the next two days. By 414 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,080 Speaker 2: the way, Luke, as we as we jump on all 415 00:18:40,080 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: things Spence Crawford for the press toward It's gonna be 416 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,000 Speaker 2: a fun couple of days back in the studio. But 417 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 2: that's another topic for another day, all right. 418 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 1: Also, just one last thing on Amanda una is a 419 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:50,960 Speaker 1: little bit of stance switching. We saw there. She played 420 00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:52,399 Speaker 1: with it a little bit, a lot of it working 421 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:54,720 Speaker 1: to great effect. Well, I'll just say the one time 422 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 1: where Amanda Nunez got tagged, remember that first round, Well, 423 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:00,720 Speaker 1: she switched stands in the tried to go in at 424 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,400 Speaker 1: an angle and then got intercepted because she over committed 425 00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:06,200 Speaker 1: on that spot and Nunaz got clipped for it. And 426 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: I'm like, well, dude, that's more of that shit, man, 427 00:19:09,160 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 1: But they just look the lack of a. 428 00:19:11,119 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 2: Jab from the beginning, right, You you talked it up correctly. 429 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 2: You felt the first Paenia Nuna's fight was more than 430 00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:22,000 Speaker 2: just an implosion. You really talked up Penia's aggressive, accurate, 431 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 2: pushing jab that that constantly gave Amanda issues and she 432 00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,679 Speaker 2: didn't show great head movement that night. If you're all Donna, 433 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 2: that's got to be, without a question, your default spam. 434 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 2: You gotta be all over her with jabs to back 435 00:19:36,240 --> 00:19:39,159 Speaker 2: her up. She wasn't. She pulled the Josh Claudie. She 436 00:19:39,160 --> 00:19:41,000 Speaker 2: tried to counter. I get why, right, she has a 437 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,399 Speaker 2: beautiful counter left hook, but you don't you know, if 438 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: you don't use it, Luke, you're probably gonna lose it, 439 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,399 Speaker 2: all right? Quote the quote the BC never nevermore, please 440 00:19:50,520 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: never more? 441 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,080 Speaker 1: All Right? With that in mind, let's go to topic 442 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 1: number two. We stay with Amanda Nunez, but we have 443 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:58,879 Speaker 1: to have a different kind of conversation now that the 444 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 1: fight is over. Subsequent to that, she announced her retirement 445 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 1: from mixed martial arts, and you could understand why. Of course, 446 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: she retires as both the bantamweight belt holder and the 447 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,160 Speaker 1: featherweight belt holder, by the way, that featherweight division. Dana 448 00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 1: White kind of indicated and didn't say it affirmatively in 449 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 1: a there's no way it doesn't get continued, but seemed 450 00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: to indicate it was not going to continue. But you see, 451 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: the question for you is as follows. Now that it 452 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,960 Speaker 1: appears to be over, well, we shall see. What can 453 00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 1: we say about Amanda Nunez upon her retirement? What what 454 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 1: what is the truth of her story in her career? 455 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 2: Sorry, Luke, I had my airpiece fall out there. If 456 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 2: you can you give me one second here, Luke. I mean, 457 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 2: you know it's only a lot to hold on. Sorry 458 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 2: about that? 459 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, fix that thing? Is your cat still beating your ass? 460 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:42,360 Speaker 1: What's going on over there? 461 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,480 Speaker 2: You know it's hot in here? Been trying to find 462 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 2: the Yeah, all right, back to this, Luke, Can you 463 00:20:47,160 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: can you reteem me up here? 464 00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,880 Speaker 1: Sure? Very simple question. Now that Amanda Nunez has retired, 465 00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 1: what what is the truth of her story in her career? 466 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:54,959 Speaker 1: What can we say about her? 467 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, a giant I mean, look, at the 468 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,720 Speaker 2: end of the day, Luke, it's always going to be 469 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 2: hard a lot of times to compare accomplishments on the 470 00:21:06,280 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: women's side to the men's side in certain points based 471 00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:10,639 Speaker 2: on different factors. It's like, you know, when you look 472 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:12,360 Speaker 2: at women's boxing as well, it's like, you know, who 473 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 2: are the pomp for pound greatest of all time? Like 474 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:19,200 Speaker 2: Leila Lee, Katie Taylor, Coloressa Shields. Can you accurately compare 475 00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 2: who they are skills wise and what they've accomplished to 476 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:25,119 Speaker 2: Sugar Ray Robinson, Muhammad Ali right, insert the name. I 477 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,120 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm not sure. I think Amanda Nunas has 478 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,240 Speaker 2: busted through that ceiling if it's there in MMA. Look, 479 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 2: I don't know moving forward, how we are not every 480 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 2: time we mentioned the upper table, the goats, the John Joneses, 481 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:40,919 Speaker 2: gsps Anderson, Silva Fade or right Mighty Mouse, whoever you 482 00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 2: think belongs in that, Amanda Nunas belongs there as well. 483 00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: Why because her path of destruction that she laid behind 484 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 2: throughout her career separate from her personal arc, which I 485 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 2: think Data talked about correctly and saying what a beautiful 486 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 2: person she is, how hard she's worked, coming from nothing, 487 00:21:57,680 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 2: moving to the United States from Brazil. Luke sleeping on 488 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 2: the mats at MMA Masters, like you know, dirt, poor start, 489 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:07,040 Speaker 2: but look at where she is now, financially together, beautiful 490 00:22:07,080 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 2: family growing that she met in the UFC. That's all great, 491 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,000 Speaker 2: But a lot of times when we compare greatness, it's 492 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 2: you know, who'd you fight and who'd you beat. Let's 493 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 2: talk about who she fought and who she beat. I mean, 494 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: look the dominant she left behind against elite foes and 495 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 2: former champions. Finishes of Ronda Rousey, Mischa Tate, Holly Holm, 496 00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:32,359 Speaker 2: Chris Cyborg victories twice over Jermaine Drandamy, former champion twice 497 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 2: over Valentina Chefchenko. One of the greatest of all time 498 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 2: redeemed herself in a GSP Matt Sarah Way dominantly against 499 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 2: Juliana Pana. She's the greatest of all time on the 500 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:46,600 Speaker 2: female side. And I don't even I think there is 501 00:22:46,720 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 2: levels to that. I know, Scatcho Ger always throws Cyborg 502 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,959 Speaker 2: back in there. Cyborg's longevity across multiple organizations is incredible. 503 00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 2: But did even the great Chris Cyborg face the same 504 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:00,280 Speaker 2: level of competition as Amanda Newness. No, this is as 505 00:23:00,320 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 2: great of a career as you can have. You know, 506 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:04,480 Speaker 2: there's so many ways you can lose in this game. 507 00:23:04,520 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 2: You know how impossible it is to put together the 508 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:09,360 Speaker 2: runs that Silva, Mighty Mouse and all the great champions 509 00:23:09,359 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 2: have done. We're gonna look back at Amanda's, you know, 510 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,720 Speaker 2: just five ten years from now, and I think double, triple, quadruple, 511 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:20,240 Speaker 2: what it says what she accomplished, And that's not always 512 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:23,000 Speaker 2: the case. As great as Ronda Rousey's run was of 513 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 2: beating you know, big names one after another, fifteen seconds, 514 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 2: twelve seconds, thirteen seconds, captivating America, becoming a legitimate pay 515 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 2: per view brand, I think her resume to a large 516 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 2: degree each day as this sport evolves, almost in a 517 00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 2: hoist Gracie type way, lessons not the impact, not the 518 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 2: pioneer side of it, not all that. But who'd she beat? 519 00:23:44,119 --> 00:23:46,880 Speaker 2: How great was she? Really? I don't think that's gonna 520 00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 2: follow Amanda newness because luke the constant evolution, the constant 521 00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 2: knows to the grind that she's put in. There was 522 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:55,520 Speaker 2: a time, yes, we talked about her not having a 523 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 2: gas tank against Catzungano. Oh she fixed that right. There 524 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 2: was a time we said she's got big power. But 525 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 2: is she a you know, slick boxer? Okay, maybe not slick, 526 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:05,640 Speaker 2: but she can switch stance, she can figure it out. 527 00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 2: She's a black belt on the ground, she's using offensive wrestling. 528 00:24:08,880 --> 00:24:12,560 Speaker 2: She's an absolute complete fighter and a monster in there, 529 00:24:12,560 --> 00:24:15,200 Speaker 2: and somebody who rises to the occasion in the big 530 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 2: moments and violently finish his competition. If she wasn't this great, 531 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,880 Speaker 2: would she have outpointed Valatina Chefchenko twice, including a five 532 00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,199 Speaker 2: round chess match. No, Amanda Nunas was everything. And the 533 00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 2: idea that somebody's just gonna come up behind her in 534 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,960 Speaker 2: three years and lap her resume and make us forget 535 00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:37,080 Speaker 2: about her. Look, I can't see another female fighter for 536 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,359 Speaker 2: a long time coming in and tearing down this path 537 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,600 Speaker 2: of destruction that Amanda did, with this level of longevity 538 00:24:43,840 --> 00:24:46,639 Speaker 2: and this level of Hall of Fame names one after 539 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 2: another on her resume. I think that we don't separate 540 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 2: the men's and women's anymore. When we're talking about the 541 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 2: goat table, it's John, it's you know, all your other heroes, 542 00:24:56,119 --> 00:24:59,320 Speaker 2: Anderson and JSP, it's also Amanda Nunas. And I really 543 00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,600 Speaker 2: want to make sure people understand and believe that because 544 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,720 Speaker 2: what we saw over the last decade was really unreal. 545 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: There's simply no doubt about it. Be see for me, man, 546 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 1: I want to I try to like think about like 547 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 1: what role she played in the sport. Everything you say 548 00:25:12,480 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: I agree with, but what I would add on top 549 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 1: for just for me or the way I sort of 550 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 1: visualize it is, Dude, Amanda Nunez was like this machete 551 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 1: slicing through dense vegetation all at once, right, because you 552 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 1: had She's she's the first great women's fighter that the 553 00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 1: UFC produced. Now there's been other, like very strong contenders 554 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: for that, but I mean, like really truly great to 555 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 1: your point, on the level of those other names that 556 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,560 Speaker 1: you mentioned. But I call her the machete because you 557 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:41,800 Speaker 1: had the Ronda Rossi experience coming out of the out 558 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,480 Speaker 1: of Strike Force and you know, ballooning in twenty thirteen, 559 00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen really and then beyond. And this is a 560 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: time when, especially twenty thirteen, when a man is not 561 00:25:50,800 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: even ranked out of the top ten. I went back and 562 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 1: I looked, and remember she didn't come out of Strike Force. 563 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,560 Speaker 1: She lost her last fight in Strike Force, then went 564 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: fifty to fifty in a Hereabouts and Invicta. That was 565 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:04,800 Speaker 1: how she ended up in UFC. So like it wasn't 566 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:08,199 Speaker 1: like she was like tearing down everything right at first, 567 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: but once this grand establishment began to grow. At one 568 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,879 Speaker 1: thirty five, off a thousand day run as champion for 569 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: Ronda Rousey, all of a sudden upset the Apple Cart 570 00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 1: by another known figure coming from boxing into MMA and 571 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,719 Speaker 1: Holly Holm by another figure. He was a strikeforce darling 572 00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:26,920 Speaker 1: who had then ended up as champion. In Misha Tate, 573 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,679 Speaker 1: where all these things had kind of happened, Amanda Nunas 574 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 1: came through and fucking laid waste to all of it, 575 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: set it on fire all at once, went through and 576 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: smashed all three of those women, stopping all three of them, 577 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 1: all three of them in violent fashion, and then went 578 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 1: up to one forty five and decimated everything up there 579 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: with that machete, just hacking through everything all at once, 580 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 1: on this fucking path of destruction. Dude, she was terrifying. 581 00:26:56,359 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: She was Godzilla in Tokyo about to breathe fire where 582 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,680 Speaker 1: ever she wanted, and God help you if you've got 583 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,960 Speaker 1: in the way. And of course against Penya, she tripped 584 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:06,760 Speaker 1: up because, as we mentioned, one of the hardest things 585 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: to do is every time, be ready, every time, have 586 00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 1: a target on your back every time I have all 587 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,439 Speaker 1: of that tape study that your opponent can overcome. She 588 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 1: couldn't have a perfect run in that sense, no run 589 00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 1: really is GSP's had his faults, blah blah blah. We 590 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: all know the story. But BC for me easily the 591 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 1: greatest women's fighter of all time. I went back and 592 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 1: I looked at Chris Cyborg's resume. Here's what I'm gonna say, 593 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: Amanda Nunez has a better five Like, Okay, here's a 594 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,040 Speaker 1: real great litmus test, right in all respect to Chris Cyborg, 595 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,199 Speaker 1: who's been doing this for so long, But tell me 596 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 1: her best five wins, because I can tell you the 597 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: best five wins from Amanda Nunez not only have Chris 598 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 1: Cyborg on it, but the other fucking names on there 599 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:51,639 Speaker 1: are enormous figures in that division and everywhere else. Mumi 600 00:27:51,640 --> 00:27:54,280 Speaker 1: Fuji can't say that a lot of women can't say 601 00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 1: that Amanda Nunez has the best resume, has the best 602 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: collection of wins bar none of any women's fighter that's 603 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:02,880 Speaker 1: ever competed. And that's just the facts. 604 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:07,560 Speaker 2: And look outside of the disputed second fight with Chefchenko, 605 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 2: it's largely a path of extreme domination like that matters. 606 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:16,000 Speaker 2: That certainly matters the evolution that we talk about. I mean, 607 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 2: she was just not a complete fighter when she joined 608 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,560 Speaker 2: the UFC. But if we're talking about the pinnacle moment 609 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 2: or when's the most eye was impressed by her, it's 610 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 2: the Cyborg fight, Luke. I remember, you know, specifically being 611 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 2: KG side for that and really wondering, as great as 612 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 2: Amanda was, what happens if she gets in a slugfest 613 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: with Cyborg? Can she carry the power up there? Can 614 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,160 Speaker 2: she take you know, somebody who may be the only 615 00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: female fighter ever who hit harder than her. Well, I'm 616 00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 2: not sure about that last tract anymore because I was 617 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 2: KG side for that. She lured Cyborg into a war 618 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:51,080 Speaker 2: which was really, in hindsight, incredibly intelligent, knowing sort of 619 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:53,959 Speaker 2: this weakness of Cyborg that once you hit her cleanly, 620 00:28:54,000 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 2: she's willing to sort of drop the guard and just 621 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 2: go after it. I don't remember. Look, I've been KG 622 00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:02,840 Speaker 2: side you know for some great ones, right, maybe not 623 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 2: some of like our other brethren who were there every weekend, 624 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 2: no matter where the UFC's going, and they've seen it all. 625 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:11,360 Speaker 2: But that was one of the loudest, most insane pops 626 00:29:11,360 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 2: from a crowd. I had ever heard when Amanda did that. 627 00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 2: And it's not because Amanda is the most popular fighter 628 00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,320 Speaker 2: of all time. Insert Darren Ravel comment, right, you know 629 00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:23,360 Speaker 2: what I mean, It's because that was such an incredible accomplishment. 630 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,360 Speaker 2: And while I still feel like as fans we were 631 00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: robbed at the idea of them doing a rematch, with 632 00:29:28,840 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 2: Cyborg exiting the UFC shortly after that, and you know, 633 00:29:31,520 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 2: not on great terms and all that, but still, even 634 00:29:35,560 --> 00:29:37,840 Speaker 2: with not doing a second fight, they fought head to 635 00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:41,240 Speaker 2: head in Cyborg's division and Amanda knocked her the hell 636 00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 2: out in an incredible fight that to me will always 637 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,960 Speaker 2: be the mountaintop moment of this is somebody that's determined 638 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 2: but also smart. You know, if it was just the 639 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 2: power Luke, if it was just the frightening power that 640 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 2: she brought to the female side of this sport, she 641 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 2: still wouldn't have had this level of long jay. She 642 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 2: wouldn't have been able to beat all of these Swiss 643 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:03,560 Speaker 2: Army knife she fought. 644 00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 3: Then. 645 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:07,960 Speaker 2: I mean, it's weird. I didn't even see it coming, 646 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,120 Speaker 2: Like we know at this age it's possible. But with 647 00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:12,600 Speaker 2: payn your cage side with pain. Youa talking a lot 648 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:16,120 Speaker 2: this week about still getting that trilogy next. This one 649 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: caught me off guard, and we're gonna get into a 650 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 2: little bit later and have you seen the shit with 651 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 2: some of the wholesome family moments we got in the 652 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 2: cage afterwards. But altogether, Amanda had one of the best 653 00:30:25,520 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 2: exits Saturday night in terms of great feelings, in terms 654 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,320 Speaker 2: of putting all the emotion down there, putting the belts 655 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 2: and the gloves on the ground and yelling into the 656 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 2: microphone double champ forever. You couldn't help it stop and 657 00:30:37,240 --> 00:30:40,360 Speaker 2: feel great for her because there's no holes in her resume. 658 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 2: In my opinion, there's no asterisk. It's just greatness. 659 00:30:43,960 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 1: B See, I'm glad you brought up the Darren Ravel thing. 660 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:47,800 Speaker 1: And there was a lot of comments he made, he 661 00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: wrote he had it back and forth with Dana White 662 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,719 Speaker 1: at certain times, and he even wrote columns or did 663 00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: podcast appearances. But it all starts from a certain tweet 664 00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: December twenty ninth of twenty eighteen, and here's what he wrote. 665 00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: Quote and Darren Revel, for folks who don't know, has 666 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 1: been kind of like he's a what is he now? 667 00:31:01,720 --> 00:31:05,320 Speaker 1: He does like gambling. He does a business. It's like 668 00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: the business side of sports. 669 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a sports business slash slash gambling expert. 670 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: I guess you could say, right and often pillar read. 671 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,000 Speaker 1: But okay, here's what he wrote quote between Rowsie and Cyborg. 672 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 1: Amanda Nunez has single handedly killed the most valuable women 673 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 1: in the sport, brutally damaging to UFC. Nunez isn't in 674 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 1: the same marketing ballpark as either of those two. You know, 675 00:31:26,880 --> 00:31:29,680 Speaker 1: I'm actually like glad we can reflect on this for 676 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:32,080 Speaker 1: a moment. You know, Listen, here's the reality. I'm not 677 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: saying that what he is not. Everything that he's saying 678 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:40,360 Speaker 1: is true. There's a certain level of marketing appeal that 679 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 1: Amanda does have that is valuable. But here's what he misses. 680 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:48,160 Speaker 1: Even if he's right about that, that it was damaging 681 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:51,160 Speaker 1: to lose Ronda Rowsei's marketing potential at its peak and 682 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: then Cyborg everything that had built up for her. Even 683 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,800 Speaker 1: if he's right that he took all that and from 684 00:31:55,800 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 1: home and from tape and from everybody else. Dude, this 685 00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: is what I said on Saturday, and I will love 686 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,840 Speaker 1: to get your take on this. Amanda Nunez was so 687 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: great she left the UFC no choice, no choice, Because 688 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 1: if you are as talented as Amanda was, and you 689 00:32:11,240 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: were beating the names that she was beating in to 690 00:32:13,760 --> 00:32:17,280 Speaker 1: your point, BC, beating them the way that she was 691 00:32:17,320 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 1: beating them, she was owed a level of reverence that 692 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't necessarily matter that it was bad for business, 693 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: because if you just want to be taken even halfway 694 00:32:27,240 --> 00:32:29,840 Speaker 1: seriously or understand what the talent in front of you 695 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: is generational, you are required. You are required to give 696 00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:37,240 Speaker 1: that the oxygen that it needs to breathe and see 697 00:32:37,240 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 1: where it goes, even if it's not necessarily the best 698 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 1: for your marketing business. Nunez made them do. 699 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 2: That, indeed, indeed, and it's it's those comments, look like 700 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:52,440 Speaker 2: you said, were there some truth to what Ravela is saying. Yes, 701 00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 2: people like Ronda, you know, and Cyborg to a smaller degree, 702 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: just have a bigger brand, a bigger jump through the 703 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:04,400 Speaker 2: sh than newness. But that comment also in hindsight kind 704 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,800 Speaker 2: of reeks of like, oh, she's beating all the really 705 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 2: good looking women, and you know this is not what 706 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 2: the UFC wants. She's beating all these great fighters. No, 707 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 2: she is the great fighter. It turns out, Okay, she 708 00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 2: is that and you know, is she a monster singular 709 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 2: pay per view draw? Well, who is Luke in UFC history? Seriously, 710 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 2: who is who is that singular draw that It doesn't 711 00:33:24,880 --> 00:33:27,360 Speaker 2: matter who they're fighting, people will tune in, and people 712 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 2: will tune in in droves. It's Ronda Ralsei, It's Connor McGregor, 713 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,800 Speaker 2: it's brock Lessner, it's at times for a beat, for 714 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 2: a stretch, John Jones and GSP. But it's nobody else 715 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 2: after that to be able to be very fair with you. 716 00:33:40,800 --> 00:33:43,320 Speaker 2: So that's always been an unfair comparison to begin with. 717 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:46,280 Speaker 2: But yeah, that's just another hurdle she has had to clear. 718 00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 2: And Luke, it doesn't even get into the personal side 719 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 2: and the ambassadorship of not only just being a great 720 00:33:51,880 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 2: female fighter, but outspoken in the gay community and building 721 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,240 Speaker 2: a family within UFC grounds. I mean, this is in 722 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:03,440 Speaker 2: every aspec An American dreams story of somebody coming to 723 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:05,960 Speaker 2: the States with nothing and building them up. And look 724 00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:07,880 Speaker 2: at the life she has now. I don't agree a 725 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 2: lot with what Danna says, particularly in the past year, Luke, 726 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 2: but everything he said postfight about who Amanda is now 727 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:16,719 Speaker 2: and while why he's not surprised that she would walk 728 00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:19,319 Speaker 2: away on top. It rings true. She beat the game, 729 00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 2: and she beat the game dominantly. And is there a 730 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:25,840 Speaker 2: better resume you could have? Is there a better exit 731 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 2: situation than going out on your terms? And they're not saying, 732 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 2: but wait, you didn't fight that person, but wait, you 733 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 2: didn't do that. She did it all, Luke. The only 734 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 2: person that's saying but wait is Juliana Pana. And I 735 00:34:35,719 --> 00:34:38,760 Speaker 2: think you know, collectively, even if silently, we all agree 736 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:40,719 Speaker 2: that that's just you know, because there's nobody else. 737 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:44,640 Speaker 1: Danny Sigura had an interesting tweet to your point. B See, 738 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 1: he's got a gazillion retweets. He wrote, Amanda Dunez retires 739 00:34:48,239 --> 00:34:52,239 Speaker 1: with money, health, legacy, and on top of the fight game. 740 00:34:52,320 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 1: He writes, you're looking at a winner. Few leave with 741 00:34:54,920 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 1: one or two of those things, and almost nobody leaves 742 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,680 Speaker 1: with all four. Again, money, health, leg and then of 743 00:35:00,680 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 1: course status in the fight game at the time in 744 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,040 Speaker 1: which she retired. I would quibble a little bit with that. 745 00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: I think her legacy is great, certainly on top of 746 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,359 Speaker 1: the fight game. Do laying down two belts and being 747 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 1: like you can fucking have them back? You, you lames, 748 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,600 Speaker 1: can't take it from me. I'll just have to donate 749 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,360 Speaker 1: it to you, like as a charity, cause that's a beast. 750 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,720 Speaker 1: And with money. I think she probably made some good money. 751 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: I do think that her health was probably a little 752 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,680 Speaker 1: bit more compromise than we realized. I just don't think 753 00:35:24,719 --> 00:35:27,520 Speaker 1: you can fight until your thirties, even at a high level, 754 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,280 Speaker 1: even as successfully as she has, without a few problems. 755 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 1: She kind of indicated that she had had some health 756 00:35:32,680 --> 00:35:38,279 Speaker 1: issues that folks around her it made them want her 757 00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:41,239 Speaker 1: to retire years ago. She's just gonna kind of kept 758 00:35:41,480 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: fighting through it. But I think the general spirit of 759 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:46,400 Speaker 1: what he is saying is true. She retires if she 760 00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: doesn't come back. We see she retires in a way 761 00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 1: that's like, dude, you want to look at what a 762 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: successful MMA career looks like. They're not going to come 763 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,720 Speaker 1: much better than this. No, just not going to come much. 764 00:35:56,680 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 2: To close on this. I love her own version of 765 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,600 Speaker 2: dunking the post pri press conference where she's like, whoever 766 00:36:02,640 --> 00:36:05,800 Speaker 2: wins this spelled after me to fake belt. Whoever beats 767 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,560 Speaker 2: that person for the bell after them, they've still got 768 00:36:08,600 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 2: a fake belt. I mean, you know you can argue 769 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:12,879 Speaker 2: with her, Luke, can you argue with her? No? 770 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:16,560 Speaker 1: Just anytime soon? Not anytime soon? All right. See, let's 771 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: talk about what some folks are calling the real main event, 772 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 1: although Banil Darus hated that description of it. Nevertheless, the 773 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:25,680 Speaker 1: co main event for UFC two eighty nine, where Charles 774 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:29,719 Speaker 1: Olivera gets back to I won't say rare form BC, 775 00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:33,520 Speaker 1: but I'll say top form in having some struggles with 776 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: Banil d'arus throughout the portion of that round, but in 777 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:40,280 Speaker 1: the end getting a stoppage and doing it absolutely brutally 778 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 1: so BC after stopping him in the first round. There 779 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: here's my question for you. Should Charles Olivera be next 780 00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 1: for Islam Makachev? 781 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:52,319 Speaker 2: He should? He should? Luke. I do think that the 782 00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 2: silo with the with the BMF rematch is separate, meaning 783 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,279 Speaker 2: if they needed to insert the winner of that into 784 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 2: Amahachev fight for marketing, per P or no one else 785 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:03,520 Speaker 2: better at that moment, they could have. But how are 786 00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,879 Speaker 2: you going to deny Charles Olivera, Luke, The champion has 787 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,200 Speaker 2: a name and it's not Charles oliver at the moment. 788 00:37:09,239 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 2: Despite his very bombastic post fight speech and jumping of 789 00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 2: the cage, and running into the crowd. But that doesn't 790 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 2: mean it can't be him again. I know he got 791 00:37:19,680 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 2: dominated by Mahachev in ways that we didn't see coming. 792 00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:25,600 Speaker 2: But let's let's give this man, you know, some respect 793 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:29,040 Speaker 2: here he mentioned throughout that's not me. That's one bad night. 794 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,240 Speaker 2: I almost, in hindsight support his want to not even 795 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 2: watch that fight, not even allow those bad moments to 796 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,840 Speaker 2: come back up again. I didn't see struggle like you 797 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:39,960 Speaker 2: mentioned against der Use. I saw moments where he was 798 00:37:40,160 --> 00:37:42,600 Speaker 2: okay with the fight going to the ground. And yes, 799 00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:45,279 Speaker 2: Derry Use is competent enough as a grappler that there 800 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:46,719 Speaker 2: were some he had to work for it. I mean, 801 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 2: it wasn't easy. But the reason why I predicted him 802 00:37:49,280 --> 00:37:52,439 Speaker 2: to win Luke was from the standpoint that he's better, 803 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:55,479 Speaker 2: He's better than der Usch and the motivation he had 804 00:37:55,480 --> 00:37:59,040 Speaker 2: coming in to remind us of that. You could feel it. 805 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,839 Speaker 2: You couldn't deny him against mahacheving a rematch. I love 806 00:38:02,880 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 2: that Dana loved it so much that he basically said, 807 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 2: I don't make fights after but yeah, let's not play games. 808 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 2: This is the fight I want. I think it's the 809 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,560 Speaker 2: fight this division deserves, even with the one sided nature 810 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,240 Speaker 2: of it, because what we are watching in this second 811 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:18,919 Speaker 2: half of Oliver's career, the all time leader in submissions, 812 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,680 Speaker 2: all time leader and finishes, and now and now three 813 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,920 Speaker 2: wins off of Jim Miller for the all time leading 814 00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:28,359 Speaker 2: winner in UFC history. Luke, there are gonna be people 815 00:38:28,360 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 2: to say, hey, BC, don't you jump on it whenever 816 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,920 Speaker 2: a compiler takes over the the lead, if it's Seroni, 817 00:38:34,040 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 2: or if it's our Lavsky, or if it's Jim Miller. 818 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:37,799 Speaker 2: And I know the word compiler in this case just 819 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 2: screams disrespect, but it's not really what I'm trying to say. 820 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:42,480 Speaker 2: I am trying to swim through it. If somebody like 821 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,880 Speaker 2: Charles olivera of championship pedigree, ends up taking over that record, 822 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 2: you know that's a monster block on his Hall of 823 00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 2: Fame resume. In my opinion, he's already secured that he's 824 00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:55,520 Speaker 2: already in the afterlife from the standpoint of what he 825 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:57,879 Speaker 2: has already accomplished. But the key point of this dari 826 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:00,480 Speaker 2: Us fright is he's not done, Luke, and I am 827 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 2: not going to count him out. I know the odds 828 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:05,280 Speaker 2: already came out for the idea of a rematch against Islam, 829 00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 2: and you know Mahichev rightfully so after that performance is 830 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 2: a solid, strong, almost overwhelming favorite. You cannot count this 831 00:39:13,200 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 2: man out of it because nobody in this game has 832 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:21,320 Speaker 2: the combination of being that dangerous but being that poised 833 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 2: and comfortable with courting danger, with forcing you to fight 834 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,160 Speaker 2: his fight, which is what he did against Dara Use 835 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 2: right off the start, jumping spin. I mean it was, 836 00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 2: it was Charlie Olivera. Shit, It's fantastic, Luke, but he 837 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,000 Speaker 2: still got it, and he still got it in a 838 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,360 Speaker 2: massive way. I don't know, man, I did not expect 839 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 2: to be coming out of this fight, even having predict 840 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 2: oliver to win, that I would be this jazzed up 841 00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,239 Speaker 2: for him getting a second chance at Majev. But I 842 00:39:46,239 --> 00:39:48,520 Speaker 2: think it is the right fight right now in the division. 843 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,000 Speaker 2: It makes a lot of sense in Olivera's career arc, 844 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 2: and I think we're gonna see theater when they do 845 00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:53,359 Speaker 2: it a second time. 846 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: It has to be Charlie olives he you know, I 847 00:39:57,680 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 1: thought the way that Islam be Olivera was so thorough 848 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:04,800 Speaker 1: that I'll be like, dude, I mean, yeah, beating Banil 849 00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,799 Speaker 1: darry uch S would be tough, but you know, maybe 850 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:09,160 Speaker 1: he could do it in a way that would get 851 00:40:09,520 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 1: you know, that would make me believe that a second 852 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:13,120 Speaker 1: fight would go differently, like we'd really get out there 853 00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:14,960 Speaker 1: and convinced this. But I thought, you know, even if 854 00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:17,319 Speaker 1: he would win, that's gonna be hard to do. Yeah, No, 855 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: not that hard, not that hard. In the end, he 856 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:21,879 Speaker 1: did it in less than a round, it turned out. 857 00:40:21,960 --> 00:40:23,360 Speaker 1: And when I say difficulty, I don't mean like he 858 00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:25,280 Speaker 1: was getting his ass beat or something. But he failed 859 00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:28,120 Speaker 1: on a takedown. He settled for full and then he 860 00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: tries to go for like this reap off of this 861 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:32,279 Speaker 1: deep half grip, and then he was trying to do 862 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,359 Speaker 1: backside fifty to fifty, and all of it was getting 863 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:36,040 Speaker 1: shut down by darry Usch. I know, it kind of 864 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:40,720 Speaker 1: looked like, you know, the thing is, sometimes olivera doesn't 865 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:43,799 Speaker 1: get that close with these leg entanglements, but he ends 866 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 1: up just making guys defend it all the time like 867 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,200 Speaker 1: whack a mole, and so he's got them in this 868 00:40:49,760 --> 00:40:51,759 Speaker 1: process that just goes on and on and on. But 869 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 1: the reason I said that is because Darry used actually 870 00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:56,879 Speaker 1: did a really good job systemically shutting it down. Okay, 871 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,120 Speaker 1: but neither here nor there, because this is the point 872 00:40:59,120 --> 00:41:01,720 Speaker 1: about Charles oliv I was like, dude, obviously he looked 873 00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:03,879 Speaker 1: ready to go. But one thing you mentioned, the jumping stuff. 874 00:41:03,880 --> 00:41:06,200 Speaker 1: Actually he cut that out. He didn't do the run 875 00:41:06,280 --> 00:41:09,839 Speaker 1: jumping spinning a run jumping switchne that he always does. 876 00:41:09,880 --> 00:41:12,359 Speaker 1: He kept his feet on this, Luke. 877 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:14,319 Speaker 2: But he said a tone is what I was trying 878 00:41:14,320 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 2: to say in the first minute, that like, I'm coming 879 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 2: after you. This wasn't counter punching Charles Oliver. 880 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 1: Yes, he had the exact same intensity, just a smarter application. 881 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,520 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. You saw the exact same Charles Oliver, 882 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,680 Speaker 1: just not doing the dumb shit that got him in 883 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 1: trouble in previous fights. So he ironed out some of 884 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: that stuff. And then when things didn't go well, he's 885 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 1: just dude. He is constantly attacking. Oh my god, you 886 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:41,200 Speaker 1: have to solve so many defensive problems before you can 887 00:41:41,239 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 1: even even get your offense going. How about this underneath? 888 00:41:45,080 --> 00:41:47,120 Speaker 1: After he kind of he failed in a takedown, he 889 00:41:47,160 --> 00:41:49,439 Speaker 1: settles for underneath. Okay, that one didn't go his way. 890 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,600 Speaker 1: He starts working his guard. The leg entanglements don't go 891 00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 1: his way, and he goes back to full and then 892 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:57,680 Speaker 1: he's still kind of winning the striking battle underneath. I 893 00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,239 Speaker 1: didn't really notice it in real time because I was 894 00:41:59,280 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 1: paying attention to some other stuff, but like an even 895 00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:06,000 Speaker 1: under on bottom position, he's still doing all of this 896 00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:07,640 Speaker 1: stuff better than Derry Yusch can get through. And der 897 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: Usch is, by the way, some pretty good ground abound 898 00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,080 Speaker 1: on top of it, and then on top and then 899 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,560 Speaker 1: when they get back to standing, BC, the head kick 900 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:17,640 Speaker 1: plus the two right hands that followed up forcing him 901 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 1: at an angle. Dude, he can take a fight that 902 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,920 Speaker 1: goes from a defensive lull to your in trouble in 903 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,160 Speaker 1: an instant. In an instant, he can make the fight 904 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 1: go from safe to your drowning before you can even 905 00:42:30,840 --> 00:42:34,840 Speaker 1: finish blinking your eyes. That is what makes Charles Olavera 906 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:36,960 Speaker 1: so special. I said this on Saturday NIGHTBC, and I 907 00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:39,759 Speaker 1: bet you agree, which is maybe we kind of thought 908 00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:42,840 Speaker 1: a little bit, At least I did. After he lost 909 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 1: to Makatchev. I thought Mikachev may have written the blueprint 910 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 1: on him because it was so bad. Yeah, good luck 911 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: following that blueprint. Because if benil dery Usch can't do it, 912 00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:51,960 Speaker 1: not many guys can. 913 00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:55,440 Speaker 2: But here's the thing. Here's where, here's where a big 914 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 2: reason why I like this rematch so much is because 915 00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: it's going to challenge Charles to show how great he really, 916 00:43:01,719 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: really really is. What I mean by that is he 917 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:08,040 Speaker 2: tried the same strategy that had had success against all 918 00:43:08,080 --> 00:43:11,920 Speaker 2: that straight run of elite brawlers, of the poiriers, of 919 00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,880 Speaker 2: the gay cheese, of you know, Kevin Lee, before that, 920 00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:17,360 Speaker 2: of anyone he was able to lure into his type 921 00:43:17,360 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 2: of fight. Machev is is just he just doesn't play 922 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 2: those games right. Oliver found that out the hard way, 923 00:43:23,880 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 2: but now coming back refining his game to your point 924 00:43:27,120 --> 00:43:29,359 Speaker 2: just enough to not be reckless against their use, but 925 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,680 Speaker 2: to still be constantly a problem. I want to see 926 00:43:32,680 --> 00:43:35,520 Speaker 2: what type of game plan he can concoct this time 927 00:43:35,560 --> 00:43:39,040 Speaker 2: around from Mahachev. What parts of his greatness can he 928 00:43:39,120 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 2: bring out of it that he didn't think he needed 929 00:43:41,120 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 2: to use that now he realizes against somebody that poised, 930 00:43:44,120 --> 00:43:47,960 Speaker 2: that defensively sound, that rock solid, who has better striking 931 00:43:48,000 --> 00:43:50,759 Speaker 2: than we realized, and obviously has a lights out ground game, 932 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:53,800 Speaker 2: either you know, wrestling wise or now submission wise we saw. 933 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 2: I want to see. I want to see what he 934 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 2: can really do, because the stats have piled up around him. 935 00:43:58,200 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 2: As we mentioned where you just can't Oliver anymore. Whether 936 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,320 Speaker 2: we're talking about the debate of who the greatest lightweight 937 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:06,440 Speaker 2: is of all time? Okay, still Habi, but Oliver is 938 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 2: certainly right there. But I think OLIVERA has a chance 939 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 2: to really put himself high up there, you know, in 940 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:14,160 Speaker 2: the all time list, and I don't mean necessarily like 941 00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 2: upper table, but he has He is still operating at 942 00:44:17,239 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 2: a level right now that it is not impossible that 943 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:22,120 Speaker 2: he ends up with the championship again, not not betting 944 00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:24,880 Speaker 2: what betting wise, you know, there's reasons for it not 945 00:44:25,000 --> 00:44:29,040 Speaker 2: to be, you know, a pick them for sure, But dude, 946 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:30,759 Speaker 2: we are gonna have to ask a lot of him 947 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:32,360 Speaker 2: in this Mahucheffrey match, and I want to see if 948 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,279 Speaker 2: he can answer that bell because his mental toughness, which 949 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 2: you need to get to this level, but the mental 950 00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:42,200 Speaker 2: toughness to reinvent himself to come back to go on 951 00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,640 Speaker 2: the run. He had have an end and then come 952 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:47,439 Speaker 2: back like you did against Star Use. This guy's next 953 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 2: level extra special, And damn again, I'll say it, I'm surprised. 954 00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 2: I am this jazzed up for a fight that was 955 00:44:53,800 --> 00:44:55,680 Speaker 2: so one sided, just one fight a go, But it's 956 00:44:55,719 --> 00:44:57,680 Speaker 2: the fight to make and I can't wait to see it. 957 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 2: Stay with the blonde hair, Charlie, Okay, you're a I mean, Luke, 958 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,680 Speaker 2: you know what vibes he has. He has those vibes 959 00:45:03,719 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 2: where you know, you go home for the weekend at 960 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:07,880 Speaker 2: college thinking everything's okay, and your girlfriend ends up in 961 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 2: his bunk bed. Those are the vibes he has right 962 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:11,279 Speaker 2: now that he brings to the cage, and I love it. 963 00:45:11,360 --> 00:45:13,759 Speaker 2: I can smell that a mile away. I just love it. 964 00:45:14,120 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: You love being the cuck? Is that what you said? 965 00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,440 Speaker 2: No? No, I know, I just love that spirit. I 966 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:21,440 Speaker 2: mean he walks into the party with his pants already off. Luke, Okay, 967 00:45:21,640 --> 00:45:24,720 Speaker 2: that's the spirit he brings to this show, all right? Yeah? 968 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:28,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, he certainly does. Uh yeah he I It's funny 969 00:45:28,520 --> 00:45:31,400 Speaker 1: given how close the fight with Makachev and Volkanovski was. 970 00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 1: I know a lot of folks might say that, especially 971 00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: because Volkonoski's use me because Makachev versus Olivera was not 972 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: that competitive the first time. But I have a very 973 00:45:38,600 --> 00:45:40,480 Speaker 1: different feeling about it, which is gonna say, I don't 974 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:42,960 Speaker 1: think Volkanoski could get it done with a second attempt. 975 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:44,680 Speaker 1: He was pretty close the first time. I think he 976 00:45:44,719 --> 00:45:49,400 Speaker 1: probably could. But this one made me reimagine what Mukachev 977 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,279 Speaker 1: versus Olivera could look like. And again you might still 978 00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 1: favor to your point, Makachev no matter what, but this 979 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:59,439 Speaker 1: Olivera sharpening up. But he's, dude, he just constantly take 980 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 1: He's not really at the point where he's adding much anymore. BC. 981 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:05,799 Speaker 1: Have you noticed that, Like he's not. He's added so 982 00:46:06,040 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 1: much already to his game. It's really not about that now. 983 00:46:09,880 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 1: It's about subtracting some of these things, right. That's when 984 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,479 Speaker 1: you really know you're at the level of refinement, because 985 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: he can do it all. The question is, let's get 986 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,120 Speaker 1: you to make some slightly better decisions on some other 987 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,239 Speaker 1: places and see what that does for you. Holy fucking shit, 988 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 1: it does a lot, man, because you don't have to 989 00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:27,000 Speaker 1: teach him new things, you don't have to get them 990 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:28,400 Speaker 1: ready for all that other stuff. You just have to 991 00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:32,359 Speaker 1: make them make some better choices and some better circumstances. 992 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:35,240 Speaker 1: So the fact that you can now reimagine what Makachev 993 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: Olavera looks like to me, I think is extremely exciting. 994 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 1: And also let's just talk about the you know, get 995 00:46:39,800 --> 00:46:41,560 Speaker 1: down to brass tacks here a little bit. I don't 996 00:46:41,560 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 1: even know if McGregor or Chandler are going to fight, 997 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: And obviously, if McGregor wins via spectacular ko, you would 998 00:46:49,120 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: imagine he's gonna move to the front of the line 999 00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,359 Speaker 1: very easily harder to say with Chandler, but not out 1000 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 1: of the realm of possibility. And I know next month 1001 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,880 Speaker 1: we have Dustin and Justin two. In all respect to 1002 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:01,600 Speaker 1: both of those guys, great fight, love it, not gonna 1003 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: shit talk it even for a little bit, but the 1004 00:47:04,000 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: reality is olivera beat by finish both of those gentlemen. Yes, 1005 00:47:08,640 --> 00:47:12,280 Speaker 1: the only acceptable choice is Charles OLIVERA next. 1006 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to ask you one key question because 1007 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 2: I mentioned that I in hindsight, I kind of liked 1008 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:18,879 Speaker 2: that He's like, forget that Mahajev fight, I'm not watching it. 1009 00:47:19,400 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 2: Did you like though, the post fight interview where even 1010 00:47:23,120 --> 00:47:26,879 Speaker 2: when dcted up, Hey, Mahajeff just tweeted about you and said, 1011 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 2: you know, there's levels to this game, Charlie still acted like, 1012 00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 2: I don't even hear that. I'm still the champion. Hey, crowd, 1013 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,399 Speaker 2: who's the champion. He was teasing the line of going 1014 00:47:36,440 --> 00:47:38,120 Speaker 2: too far with it right there? Did you agree with that? 1015 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:41,840 Speaker 1: I'm not sure that I really paid too much attention 1016 00:47:41,920 --> 00:47:46,319 Speaker 1: to that. I will say this, that was he was 1017 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:48,919 Speaker 1: trying to speak English, So shouts to him for trying 1018 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: to do that. I know that's not easy, so I 1019 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,080 Speaker 1: appreciated that. You know, I think he was really happy 1020 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,920 Speaker 1: to be back. And sometimes you you know, Anthony, it 1021 00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:59,160 Speaker 1: reminds me Anthony Joshua after the second USICK fighter. He 1022 00:47:59,160 --> 00:48:01,520 Speaker 1: had lost, so that's front and he just boxed twelve rounds. 1023 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,719 Speaker 1: That's also different. But you know, he just said some 1024 00:48:03,719 --> 00:48:05,920 Speaker 1: weird shit. This was like the happy version of that. 1025 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yeah, it's sort of like, no, guys, 1026 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:11,240 Speaker 2: that fight never happened, but it never happened. 1027 00:48:11,320 --> 00:48:13,319 Speaker 1: Right, here's what I'll say. Here's what I'll say. 1028 00:48:13,320 --> 00:48:13,480 Speaker 4: BC. 1029 00:48:13,600 --> 00:48:15,359 Speaker 1: It's not just like we're making a case for him 1030 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,360 Speaker 1: based on him beating a very good opponent. I know 1031 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:20,520 Speaker 1: he didn't show up on that way and on Saturday 1032 00:48:20,600 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: night in the way that you would have hoped in 1033 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:24,640 Speaker 1: the longer since. But Jesus Christ, guys, Banil Drush is 1034 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:28,880 Speaker 1: a very skilled, very good opponent. But the thing that 1035 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,560 Speaker 1: stood out to me BC is Charlie Ollis. You knew 1036 00:48:31,600 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: this already, but we were questioning where it could go 1037 00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 1: after the Makachev defeat. He has really turned himself into 1038 00:48:37,600 --> 00:48:40,839 Speaker 1: a fan favor. The Canadians were going crazy for him 1039 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:43,880 Speaker 1: in Vancouver. I know the fans at home care more 1040 00:48:43,920 --> 00:48:46,120 Speaker 1: about that fight than some of the other ones, including 1041 00:48:46,120 --> 00:48:48,680 Speaker 1: the main event. I really think, yes, he's got a 1042 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:51,680 Speaker 1: case because of what he's done. He's also got a 1043 00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 1: case because you're not making a big trade off. I 1044 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:57,359 Speaker 1: don't think Connor McGregor, notwithstanding, you're not making a big 1045 00:48:57,400 --> 00:48:59,560 Speaker 1: trade off in pay per view possibilities with that. I 1046 00:48:59,560 --> 00:49:03,040 Speaker 1: actually think you could do really good business with Charlie olivera. 1047 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:04,799 Speaker 2: Absolutely and and you know what else would you want 1048 00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:07,799 Speaker 2: if you're a fan of an exciting finisher who's also 1049 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:10,160 Speaker 2: you know, elite and in terms of his skill set 1050 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:13,640 Speaker 2: across the board, but brings the fight constantly. Luke, you 1051 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 2: know Charles, to be fair, he do Bronx better than 1052 00:49:16,080 --> 00:49:18,520 Speaker 2: a horny Jeter. After the post game with gift bags, 1053 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. 1054 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: He didn't do the Joe Namath. I just want to 1055 00:49:23,840 --> 00:49:24,279 Speaker 1: kiss you. 1056 00:49:24,440 --> 00:49:25,840 Speaker 2: I just want to kiss you. 1057 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:30,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, Joe there buddy, huh. 1058 00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 2: That Twitter imagine that moment in the Twitter era, Luke, 1059 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:35,719 Speaker 2: that moment. I mean, I was called everybody I knew 1060 00:49:35,719 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 2: after watching that live, you know what I mean? I had. 1061 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:39,160 Speaker 2: I had to put the bong down for a second 1062 00:49:39,200 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 2: and pick up the landline and be like, guys, did 1063 00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 2: you just see what I did? Or am I really 1064 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:43,719 Speaker 2: high right now? 1065 00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:43,920 Speaker 3: You know? 1066 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:46,520 Speaker 1: I mean why they made they made a website after that? 1067 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 1: Remember that kissing Susie Colbert Colbert whatever? How did she 1068 00:49:49,600 --> 00:49:50,480 Speaker 1: pronounce her last name? 1069 00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:51,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, Colbert? 1070 00:49:51,200 --> 00:49:53,879 Speaker 1: And I was like, you guys are making a website 1071 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:58,080 Speaker 1: based off of sexual harassment that happened on No dude, 1072 00:49:58,080 --> 00:49:58,319 Speaker 1: I know. 1073 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 2: So that was probably like two thousand and one ish, 1074 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,719 Speaker 2: and we just instantly just put the sexual harassment side 1075 00:50:03,719 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 2: away and was like man drunk name with rules, right, yeah? No, yeah, 1076 00:50:07,920 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 2: it turns out no, it turns out no. 1077 00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:12,600 Speaker 1: But all right, yeah, uh okay, you see any of 1078 00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:15,160 Speaker 1: the final thoughts on Charlie Olives and Menil Daria. But 1079 00:50:15,239 --> 00:50:16,680 Speaker 1: by the way, for darry USh, I think when he 1080 00:50:16,800 --> 00:50:21,520 Speaker 1: thirty five years of age, in all likelihood not going 1081 00:50:21,560 --> 00:50:22,960 Speaker 1: to get back here. I think he still got some 1082 00:50:23,000 --> 00:50:23,920 Speaker 1: good wins left in him. 1083 00:50:23,960 --> 00:50:24,080 Speaker 2: Oh. 1084 00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 1: One thing I did want to say, dude, both of 1085 00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:28,799 Speaker 1: those guys looked bad at the weigh ins. We didn't 1086 00:50:28,800 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: talk about Baca, we didn't get a chance to see it. 1087 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,319 Speaker 1: Both of them looked really bad. Now here's what I'm 1088 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:38,320 Speaker 1: gonna say. Olivera was like smacking his mouth trying to smile, 1089 00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:40,319 Speaker 1: and that was like because he had cotton mouth so bad, 1090 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:42,960 Speaker 1: which was terrible to see. There was video or a 1091 00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: photo anyway of Daryush sort of pointing out his wedding 1092 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:47,839 Speaker 1: ring and the space between his finger and the top 1093 00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:52,880 Speaker 1: of the ring. I'm not gonna say that it's a 1094 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: factor in the way that like I'm trying to undercut 1095 00:50:55,160 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 1: Olivera's win, because my argument's gonna be it looked like 1096 00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 1: both of them were severely drained from the weight cuts, 1097 00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 1: so it's a wash in the end. But here's what 1098 00:51:02,640 --> 00:51:06,640 Speaker 1: I do. Wonder do we think that dary Yusha's chin 1099 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 1: is affected by that weight cut, like in a real way. 1100 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 2: It could be, could be. He also got hit pretty 1101 00:51:13,840 --> 00:51:17,200 Speaker 2: pretty flushed Luke with Charles Olavera shots. But I mean, 1102 00:51:17,239 --> 00:51:20,680 Speaker 2: you know, yeah, I mean, dude, way cutting is so 1103 00:51:21,440 --> 00:51:25,600 Speaker 2: god it's so freaking brutal, barbaric and gnarly and unsafe 1104 00:51:25,640 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 2: and unhealthy. And I know everybody does it. My neighbor, 1105 00:51:28,719 --> 00:51:30,799 Speaker 2: the great high school wrestler does, like Creme. I mean, 1106 00:51:30,840 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 2: it's just part of the fabric of these combat sports. 1107 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:37,880 Speaker 2: But damn is it not safe, not smart, not built 1108 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,560 Speaker 2: in for a long longevity in this game or even 1109 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:42,920 Speaker 2: on this earth to make such extreme cuts. Yeah, it 1110 00:51:42,960 --> 00:51:45,879 Speaker 2: had to affect him to some degree, but I don't 1111 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,360 Speaker 2: think that's the reason he lost. Luke, he lost because 1112 00:51:48,640 --> 00:51:50,360 Speaker 2: the champion has a name, to be fair. 1113 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:52,719 Speaker 1: You know what I mean, champion does have a name. 1114 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:55,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's much Yeah, yeah. 1115 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,240 Speaker 1: It's it's Reggie Jackson. 1116 00:51:57,680 --> 00:51:59,839 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, oh yeah. 1117 00:52:00,000 --> 00:52:01,919 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to topic number four here bc 1118 00:52:02,400 --> 00:52:04,880 Speaker 1: UFC T two eighty nine card excuse me. And of 1119 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:08,360 Speaker 1: course did have some other fights. You know, I'm not 1120 00:52:08,360 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 1: gonna sit here and say that the fights were of 1121 00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:14,080 Speaker 1: poor quality. I don't think that's quite true. And the 1122 00:52:14,120 --> 00:52:17,319 Speaker 1: Canadians seemed to be quite happy with it. But you know, 1123 00:52:18,840 --> 00:52:21,160 Speaker 1: there wasn't a lot on there that I loved. What 1124 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:22,279 Speaker 1: did what else did up to? You? 1125 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,600 Speaker 2: Look there were two things that were like, I mean, 1126 00:52:24,600 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 2: you ever go over somebody's house to eat and you 1127 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 2: can tell that they know how to cook, but they've 1128 00:52:28,040 --> 00:52:32,120 Speaker 2: got one ingredient that's way too prevalent, like overwhelming garlic 1129 00:52:32,200 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 2: or something. You're just like, man, this would have been 1130 00:52:34,160 --> 00:52:35,319 Speaker 2: good in front and stept for that. 1131 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,480 Speaker 1: I'm guessing as a white person that that ingredient for 1132 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:40,040 Speaker 1: you was salt. 1133 00:52:40,480 --> 00:52:42,520 Speaker 2: In this case, Luke, there was a little bit too 1134 00:52:42,560 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 2: much Canada and a lot too much full seting on 1135 00:52:45,960 --> 00:52:47,520 Speaker 2: this card right, A lot of. 1136 00:52:47,680 --> 00:52:51,359 Speaker 1: Listen, Canada is a wonderful place with wonderful people, let's 1137 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,800 Speaker 1: be very honest. But there was a lot of Canada 1138 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:55,520 Speaker 1: up in my face. 1139 00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, it's It's no different than Patty 1140 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:00,839 Speaker 2: and Molly running circles around the London. I get it. 1141 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:02,879 Speaker 2: People are allowed to have their moment. If we ever 1142 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:05,160 Speaker 2: do a pay per view in Connecticut, look, I'll be 1143 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,319 Speaker 2: there on the front row like with my you know, 1144 00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:10,759 Speaker 2: ct with the CTE shirt on. But shout out to 1145 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:13,319 Speaker 2: Mike Malat, Shout out to the crowd that almost killed 1146 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:15,399 Speaker 2: themselves reaching out for him. We'll get to that later. 1147 00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:20,799 Speaker 2: He is somebody to watch. He's aggressive, he's fun. But 1148 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,320 Speaker 2: you know, I get it. You guys have freek healthcare. 1149 00:53:25,360 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 2: You're really happy. But you know, Luke, I mean, am 1150 00:53:27,680 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 2: I just being a jerk American who was up too 1151 00:53:30,040 --> 00:53:31,600 Speaker 2: late on Saturday? I don't know, Maybe I am. 1152 00:53:31,680 --> 00:53:36,560 Speaker 1: No, It's like if America was a woman at Marty Gratz, like, great, 1153 00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:38,920 Speaker 1: you have flashed your breasts already, we don't need you 1154 00:53:38,960 --> 00:53:41,840 Speaker 1: can fine that you keep doing it that we've already 1155 00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:42,239 Speaker 1: seen him. 1156 00:53:42,280 --> 00:53:45,279 Speaker 2: Thank you, No, seriously, nice way. Look, I want to 1157 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:48,239 Speaker 2: ask you. I'm sure you covered this in some form 1158 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,800 Speaker 2: in the post fight show your extra credit, but should 1159 00:53:50,840 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 2: we really be dialing into Mike Mallatt as a future 1160 00:53:53,719 --> 00:53:59,120 Speaker 2: breakout performer or just a potential ticket mover for Canada. 1161 00:54:01,120 --> 00:54:04,040 Speaker 1: I actually think that there's some upside there. I do. 1162 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 1: His opponent was like a thirty four year old fighter 1163 00:54:07,120 --> 00:54:09,640 Speaker 1: with you know, a nine to two, nine and three record, 1164 00:54:10,040 --> 00:54:11,520 Speaker 1: but not that it was like a poor one. But 1165 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,080 Speaker 1: this was not exactly like, hey, he's beating the very 1166 00:54:14,120 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 1: best of his yeah fucking vision at the moment. Yeah. 1167 00:54:19,200 --> 00:54:20,719 Speaker 1: I know he's had to deal with that all his life. 1168 00:54:20,760 --> 00:54:22,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to add to it because I grew 1169 00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:24,640 Speaker 1: up in the eighties with everyone asking me or telling 1170 00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,360 Speaker 1: me they were my father father. All right. But to 1171 00:54:28,360 --> 00:54:30,040 Speaker 1: answer the question about Mike Malott, I think there's some 1172 00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 1: potential there. He's worth taking seriously. He's a good athlete. 1173 00:54:33,320 --> 00:54:36,000 Speaker 1: The Canadians love him, obviously being a Canadian. He does 1174 00:54:36,120 --> 00:54:38,879 Speaker 1: have some good skill. Everything he does is physical. That 1175 00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:41,160 Speaker 1: guillotine was really nice that he finished it off with 1176 00:54:41,960 --> 00:54:44,799 Speaker 1: good presence of mind. You know, there's a lot there 1177 00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 1: that actually could be something. Now you're asking me how 1178 00:54:46,760 --> 00:54:48,719 Speaker 1: far can he go? I don't know, but I don't 1179 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:50,360 Speaker 1: think it's fair to be like do I get like 1180 00:54:50,480 --> 00:54:52,879 Speaker 1: Sage north Cut vibes from him? No, not at all. 1181 00:54:52,920 --> 00:54:55,800 Speaker 1: He looks to me like much more of a genuine article, 1182 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:58,319 Speaker 1: to the point where it's actually worth pursuing to see 1183 00:54:58,320 --> 00:54:59,880 Speaker 1: what there really is there because it could be some 1184 00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:02,440 Speaker 1: thing we shall see, all right. 1185 00:55:02,719 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 2: I gotta shout out danygey here Luke because when he 1186 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:07,520 Speaker 2: lost three in a row, when he lost four or 1187 00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:10,480 Speaker 2: five against very good competition. But you know, I was 1188 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:12,319 Speaker 2: very critical of I was critical of him head of 1189 00:55:12,320 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 2: this matchup, but he did come off a resounding ko 1190 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:17,160 Speaker 2: of Jackson last time out. That would go against my 1191 00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:20,080 Speaker 2: idea that maybe he doesn't have the top end power 1192 00:55:20,120 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 2: to be able to, you know, do this against the elites. 1193 00:55:23,200 --> 00:55:25,280 Speaker 2: But I will say this, he turned in yet another 1194 00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 2: very good performance. He's only thirty one, and yes, it 1195 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,840 Speaker 2: was his power that ultimately won him this fight, the clean, 1196 00:55:33,040 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 2: hard punching that always stopped a game, Nate the train 1197 00:55:36,320 --> 00:55:39,280 Speaker 2: from trying to build up momentum and trying to lead anywhere. 1198 00:55:39,480 --> 00:55:41,600 Speaker 2: In hindsight, Luke, I do think it was a mistake 1199 00:55:41,680 --> 00:55:44,520 Speaker 2: for land Wheir, who told Egay at the press conference, yeah, 1200 00:55:44,520 --> 00:55:45,960 Speaker 2: I'll shoot first, I'll take you to the ground and 1201 00:55:45,960 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 2: submit you. I do think it was a mistake for 1202 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 2: him to avoid bringing the fight to the ground so 1203 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:54,440 Speaker 2: willingly and trying to trade throughout. But damn credit Egay. 1204 00:55:54,440 --> 00:55:56,839 Speaker 2: He stood in there against a red hot opponent, one 1205 00:55:56,840 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 2: who is not easy to beat because he's so hard 1206 00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:01,880 Speaker 2: to finish. And while he didn't finish him, Luke, he 1207 00:56:02,000 --> 00:56:05,319 Speaker 2: disciplined him. He beat him up. Danny Gay's coming on 1208 00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:08,560 Speaker 2: and I was overly critical to mister fifty k there, 1209 00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:12,319 Speaker 2: But I'll happily eat some crow here, Luke. He is dangerous. 1210 00:56:12,480 --> 00:56:15,440 Speaker 2: He is a he's moving product right now. He's coming on. 1211 00:56:15,680 --> 00:56:19,839 Speaker 2: I'm happy to see it sometimes, Luke. Sometimes somebody goes 1212 00:56:19,840 --> 00:56:21,600 Speaker 2: through a losing streak and you sort of go, man, 1213 00:56:21,800 --> 00:56:23,319 Speaker 2: you know, I want this guy to be something, but 1214 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:27,200 Speaker 2: he's fallen short at a few different turns. What he's 1215 00:56:27,239 --> 00:56:29,000 Speaker 2: been able to do? Him and his team after that 1216 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:31,799 Speaker 2: losing streak and turn it around and yeah, big sexy there, Eric, 1217 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 2: Nick Sick part of that team. Happy to see it 1218 00:56:34,200 --> 00:56:36,040 Speaker 2: for those guys, Luke, I was waiting for Nick Sick 1219 00:56:36,080 --> 00:56:38,360 Speaker 2: to text me after and be like, dude, you were wrong. 1220 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:40,279 Speaker 2: I was coach. I was wrong, all right? 1221 00:56:40,960 --> 00:56:43,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough speaking to being wrong. How about that 1222 00:56:43,040 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 1: fight between Random Everick and is it dude? Is it 1223 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:50,320 Speaker 1: Jazmine jaesuita vissius or Jazz divisius Jazz juass Yes, Jazz Divisius. 1224 00:56:51,200 --> 00:56:53,600 Speaker 1: That fight was actually fun. I've got to say I 1225 00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:55,960 Speaker 1: had been high on Mirandom Maverick coming into the UFC, 1226 00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:58,120 Speaker 1: and again we talked about this. On Friday. She had 1227 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 1: the loss to Aaron Lanchfield, which just like, Okay, Blanchfield 1228 00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:03,560 Speaker 1: is a hammer, that's no big deal. She's only twenty 1229 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 1: five years old. And then the law she had to 1230 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:08,120 Speaker 1: Macy Barber was very controversial. She moves out to Colorado 1231 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:10,000 Speaker 1: to go to Elevation Fight Team. I had still had 1232 00:57:10,040 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 1: some high hopes, but I don't know, man like this 1233 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:15,040 Speaker 1: one made me rethink some of those things, which is, again, 1234 00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 1: I want to be clear, twenty five years old. I'm 1235 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 1: not in any way declaring that, oh, there's no chance 1236 00:57:19,040 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 1: of her becoming something great. There's still actually quite a 1237 00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:23,800 Speaker 1: bit of a good chance. But for the time being, 1238 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 1: it looks smith there's still some development issues that have 1239 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 1: to happen. She had trouble making her entries from range 1240 00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:32,480 Speaker 1: were just not really getting the job done. Her coach 1241 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,840 Speaker 1: is telling her not to wrestle, she continued to but 1242 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 1: the real story to me is Jazz Davissius leveled that 1243 00:57:37,240 --> 00:57:41,480 Speaker 1: fucking big time here. She looked ready for this challenge, 1244 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:45,440 Speaker 1: well studied for this particular opponent. Nothing surprised her. She 1245 00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:49,560 Speaker 1: had answers and aggression for everything. Breakout performance in my 1246 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:50,480 Speaker 1: mind for her. 1247 00:57:50,480 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 2: This show's the growth, Luke. I've watched her career. I 1248 00:57:52,840 --> 00:57:54,480 Speaker 2: actually watched that episode she was on the Dana Woy 1249 00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:56,200 Speaker 2: Contender series, and it looked like, Okay, we may have 1250 00:57:56,240 --> 00:57:59,120 Speaker 2: something here, and I'll dead wrong myself, not out of Montreal. 1251 00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:01,640 Speaker 2: Luke fighting out of anto, so correct me ahead of 1252 00:58:01,680 --> 00:58:05,000 Speaker 2: time on that, but I will say she hadn't fought 1253 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 2: this complete of her performance before. This is a big 1254 00:58:07,120 --> 00:58:09,360 Speaker 2: leap her in her team. And it was the straight, 1255 00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:14,240 Speaker 2: hard punching that essentially kept Maverick from ever gaining momentum 1256 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 2: control trying to take the lead and establish it. But 1257 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:20,400 Speaker 2: the fact that Jasmine dominated her on the ground each 1258 00:58:20,440 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 2: time Maverick tried to shoot, whether that was to change 1259 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:25,800 Speaker 2: the momentum or to just avoid getting beat up, right, 1260 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:30,480 Speaker 2: Jazz Devicius just shut her down. The takedown defense, the sprawling, 1261 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,760 Speaker 2: but the ability to turn that into offense and top position. 1262 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 2: She's coming on Luke and she's not young. I think 1263 00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 2: she's like thirty four, but she's big for this division. 1264 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 2: If she can keep working that jab and and you know, 1265 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:45,760 Speaker 2: none of her punches are looping, it's straight to the point, stiff, 1266 00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 2: hard punches. This could be interesting moving forward. This was 1267 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,280 Speaker 2: This was a really good win for a fighter that 1268 00:58:51,320 --> 00:58:55,240 Speaker 2: works really hard but hadn't really shown any plus parts 1269 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:58,080 Speaker 2: to her game in my opinion. After the Contender series, 1270 00:58:58,440 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 2: you know struggled a bit at times. One a couple 1271 00:59:00,520 --> 00:59:02,600 Speaker 2: of fights, she looked like she's putting it together now 1272 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:03,240 Speaker 2: and it's good to see. 1273 00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I really I thought what she had turned it 1274 00:59:06,360 --> 00:59:09,040 Speaker 1: was very impressive. And to the point you raised Jasdavissia's 1275 00:59:09,080 --> 00:59:11,880 Speaker 1: thirty four random Maverck twenty five. So there's a big 1276 00:59:11,920 --> 00:59:14,240 Speaker 1: gap in terms of well, not so much in terms 1277 00:59:14,280 --> 00:59:17,840 Speaker 1: of MMA experience, but she's a more developed person in general, 1278 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 1: maybe developed athlete as well. At twenty five. I think 1279 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 1: Maverick still looks like she's trying to figure some things out, 1280 00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:24,360 Speaker 1: so let's give her some space to do that. But 1281 00:59:24,640 --> 00:59:30,080 Speaker 1: there was that quickly on the Chris Curtis Nassardine Imovov fight. 1282 00:59:30,600 --> 00:59:33,400 Speaker 1: It gets stopped this time the referee jacent Herzog sees it, 1283 00:59:33,440 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 1: so it ends up being a no contest, so it 1284 00:59:34,880 --> 00:59:37,840 Speaker 1: doesn't cost Curtis the win, but both of these guys 1285 00:59:37,880 --> 00:59:40,640 Speaker 1: don't get their win bonus as a consequence, so they 1286 00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:43,760 Speaker 1: ended up getting paid like they had lost. I suppose 1287 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:46,320 Speaker 1: it's the right outcome, BC, but it is amazing to 1288 00:59:46,360 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 1: me that there's like this online chatter that like, oh, 1289 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:51,880 Speaker 1: in fact, Curtis quite easily could have continued. He just 1290 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,440 Speaker 1: should have lied about not being able to see and 1291 00:59:54,480 --> 00:59:58,520 Speaker 1: It's like I get that fighters sometimes do that. In fact, 1292 00:59:58,600 --> 01:00:01,720 Speaker 1: many cases, they often do that. They often do that 1293 01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 1: to their fucking detriment and end up getting their ass 1294 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:07,480 Speaker 1: kicked for it. Like they're the times where everyone's like, 1295 01:00:07,880 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 1: pretend you can't see, or pretend you can't see, just lie, 1296 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,880 Speaker 1: get through it and then just try harder. Bitch, you're 1297 01:00:13,880 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 1: gonna get fucking hurt doing shit like that. Yeah, So 1298 01:00:17,320 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 1: I really don't understand the argument about like Curtis looking 1299 01:00:20,360 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 1: for a way out. He's never done that before. 1300 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:24,080 Speaker 2: He was not looking for a way out. He was 1301 01:00:24,480 --> 01:00:27,760 Speaker 2: almost crying, trying to argue with the referee to keep 1302 01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:29,720 Speaker 2: the fight going or to give him more time, all 1303 01:00:29,760 --> 01:00:32,840 Speaker 2: of that, rubbing his eyes on the referee, Herzog shirt. 1304 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:34,840 Speaker 2: I mean, no, it wasn't that. But you know, it's like, 1305 01:00:34,880 --> 01:00:37,360 Speaker 2: what do we want out of these fighters? We rightfully 1306 01:00:37,720 --> 01:00:40,080 Speaker 2: criticize the shit out of TJ. Dillashaw for coming in 1307 01:00:40,120 --> 01:00:43,000 Speaker 2: as broken goods and figuring this might be my last 1308 01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,360 Speaker 2: title shot. I'll just wing it. No, you robbed from yourself, 1309 01:00:46,360 --> 01:00:48,920 Speaker 2: and unfortunately you robbed a big win from Sterling. In 1310 01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,040 Speaker 2: that regard, I'd rather see this, Luke. I mean, look, 1311 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:56,880 Speaker 2: I get that, you know, if your game and you 1312 01:00:56,880 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 2: want to play the company man role and you want 1313 01:00:58,840 --> 01:01:00,920 Speaker 2: to always be opportunistic. We talk about this a lot, right, 1314 01:01:01,240 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 2: Everybody wants to prove that they're tough and they're Chris 1315 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,760 Speaker 2: Leeban and Cowboys Seroni and they can fight two weeks 1316 01:01:05,800 --> 01:01:07,520 Speaker 2: after they were just in a war to fill in. 1317 01:01:07,560 --> 01:01:09,840 Speaker 2: But that always catches up with you. I mean, look, 1318 01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:11,560 Speaker 2: I think it caught up with Tony Ferguson in a 1319 01:01:11,720 --> 01:01:14,160 Speaker 2: huge way how quickly he tried to come around from 1320 01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:16,640 Speaker 2: that injury that pulled him out of the Habib title 1321 01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 2: fight the fourth or fifth time or whatever. That was, Like, 1322 01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 2: there's a price to pay for doing that. I think 1323 01:01:22,680 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 2: this played out the way it should have. It's certainly 1324 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:27,560 Speaker 2: bad luck twice in a row for Curtis, but he 1325 01:01:27,600 --> 01:01:29,160 Speaker 2: shouldn't have to go through the rest of the fight 1326 01:01:29,280 --> 01:01:31,080 Speaker 2: like that in a situation where it's not his fault, 1327 01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 2: you know. 1328 01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:34,600 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, yeah. People said, well, don't tell the 1329 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:37,080 Speaker 1: referee that you can't see, but sometimes they do that 1330 01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 1: on instinct. I agree that they shouldn't. I will say 1331 01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:44,680 Speaker 1: this for fighters, they should have the presence of mind 1332 01:01:44,720 --> 01:01:47,960 Speaker 1: to know that even if it's accidental or you think 1333 01:01:48,000 --> 01:01:50,240 Speaker 1: it's not a big deal to tell the referee that 1334 01:01:50,280 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 1: you can't see. Once you do tell the referee you 1335 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:55,520 Speaker 1: can't see, or you're actually using his shirt to wipe 1336 01:01:55,560 --> 01:01:59,959 Speaker 1: your eye, you know they're getting them to come back 1337 01:02:00,080 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 1: from that. To not stop the fight will be difficult, right, 1338 01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:05,880 Speaker 1: just as human beings if they see you using your 1339 01:02:06,000 --> 01:02:08,240 Speaker 1: literal clothing and the saying I can't see. I think 1340 01:02:08,240 --> 01:02:10,440 Speaker 1: he was doing that in his mind to buy time, 1341 01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,200 Speaker 1: That's what he was trying to do. But also he 1342 01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 1: didn't note on Twitter like you could have this clash 1343 01:02:16,160 --> 01:02:18,640 Speaker 1: of heads or an invertent headbutt and there could be 1344 01:02:18,680 --> 01:02:22,680 Speaker 1: different timing for whether or not you get five minutes 1345 01:02:22,760 --> 01:02:24,200 Speaker 1: or not. In this particular case, he did not get 1346 01:02:24,240 --> 01:02:24,880 Speaker 1: five minutes. 1347 01:02:24,960 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 2: So yeah, well you know, I mean, what did Terry 1348 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:31,160 Speaker 2: Silver teach us in KK three, Luke, you know, author 1349 01:02:31,240 --> 01:02:36,640 Speaker 2: of the Quicksilver Method. Man can't see, he can't fight? Okay, 1350 01:02:37,160 --> 01:02:38,600 Speaker 2: what do you want from this guy? Luke? He didn't 1351 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:40,840 Speaker 2: pull himself in the eye if he's just being honest, 1352 01:02:40,840 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 2: even if he's scared. If he's scared, I mean, wouldn't 1353 01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,280 Speaker 2: you be scared, Luke? If the referees saying you're ready 1354 01:02:45,320 --> 01:02:47,280 Speaker 2: to go back out there and you can't see out 1355 01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:50,360 Speaker 2: of one eye, supposed to just lieing and fight with 1356 01:02:50,440 --> 01:02:52,720 Speaker 2: one like like you're Joe Frazier or something, No, no, 1357 01:02:52,880 --> 01:02:55,320 Speaker 2: you know, or Michael Bisping, Luke, or. 1358 01:02:56,200 --> 01:02:58,200 Speaker 1: Like you could do it if you're like, oh, I'm 1359 01:02:58,200 --> 01:03:00,960 Speaker 1: good at takedowns and this guy sucks them and I 1360 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 1: can rely on that way to win. But you can't 1361 01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:05,640 Speaker 1: rely on that way to win against Imavo. Have you 1362 01:03:05,680 --> 01:03:07,200 Speaker 1: got to stand up with that guy for the most 1363 01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:10,000 Speaker 1: part probably or deal with his takedowns, which you saw 1364 01:03:10,000 --> 01:03:12,960 Speaker 1: a little bit in that round as well. Yeah, dude, 1365 01:03:13,000 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 1: if you can't see, you should not fucking fight like 1366 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:18,520 Speaker 1: people like Chris Curtis. Quit out there. Chris Curtis will 1367 01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:22,120 Speaker 1: box your fucking ears off. Bitch. You gotta be real careful, bitch. 1368 01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:25,080 Speaker 2: Look, I gotta say one thing. You know. I'm a 1369 01:03:25,360 --> 01:03:28,960 Speaker 2: I'm a up and coming combat sports fight announcer as 1370 01:03:29,000 --> 01:03:31,600 Speaker 2: you are, so you know I I tend to nitpick 1371 01:03:31,720 --> 01:03:32,640 Speaker 2: or mostly. 1372 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:34,480 Speaker 1: A failed version of one, but you're still up and coming. 1373 01:03:34,680 --> 01:03:36,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm I'm sportline the same thing, Luke. 1374 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,439 Speaker 2: But I'm trying to harden all right. But the whole 1375 01:03:38,440 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 2: point is this. You know, we all have our favorites, 1376 01:03:40,080 --> 01:03:41,680 Speaker 2: and I've talked up a lot that I really think 1377 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 2: Dom Cruise has become Although he's not everybody's taste, he's 1378 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,960 Speaker 2: become my choice for that third seed of the ex 1379 01:03:48,040 --> 01:03:50,200 Speaker 2: fighter spot. I think it should be John Annick in 1380 01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:53,360 Speaker 2: the one spot. I think DC over Rogan for my 1381 01:03:53,480 --> 01:03:56,520 Speaker 2: personal entertainment in that second spot. But I've always been 1382 01:03:56,520 --> 01:03:58,840 Speaker 2: big on Tom Cruise. But I gotta say Paul Felder 1383 01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:01,120 Speaker 2: called a hell of a paper review card on Saturday, 1384 01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 2: and I've always liked him and I've never disliked him 1385 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:07,400 Speaker 2: as an announcer, but I think Saturday I really took notice, 1386 01:04:07,600 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 2: paid attention closely and felt like he complimented the other 1387 01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:14,000 Speaker 2: two beautifully. His explanations in a simple way for casual 1388 01:04:14,040 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 2: fans on the air is very refreshing, but at the 1389 01:04:16,240 --> 01:04:18,280 Speaker 2: same time he can do the deep dive breakdown of 1390 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:21,240 Speaker 2: what's going on. I think he is really starting to 1391 01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:24,480 Speaker 2: elevate himself. Luke that you know he may be passing 1392 01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:26,640 Speaker 2: Don Cruse soon on my own personal choice if they 1393 01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:29,120 Speaker 2: if they ended up going, this is the A team 1394 01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 2: d c Anak and Felder and obviously Rogan's still there 1395 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:34,360 Speaker 2: and still adds a lot, but I wouldn't be against 1396 01:04:34,400 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 2: that shout out to Paul Felder for making waves in 1397 01:04:36,200 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 2: this It's not an easy job, Luke, not an easy 1398 01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:40,200 Speaker 2: job to do, and you know they only call about 1399 01:04:40,240 --> 01:04:41,880 Speaker 2: nineteen fights a night, you know what I'm saying, And 1400 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:43,600 Speaker 2: he's doing a great job. So I wanted to shout 1401 01:04:43,600 --> 01:04:43,880 Speaker 2: that out. 1402 01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:46,479 Speaker 1: Yeah, Paul Felder did great. I thought there was hardly 1403 01:04:46,480 --> 01:04:48,760 Speaker 1: any complaints I heard about him on social media. I 1404 01:04:48,760 --> 01:04:51,080 Speaker 1: think most folks will like the call. I would actually 1405 01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 1: argue that, like if you go back and you watch 1406 01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:54,840 Speaker 1: some of the UFCS smaller tier shows where you end 1407 01:04:54,920 --> 01:04:58,120 Speaker 1: up getting Brendan Fitzgerald, Paul Felder and Laura Sanko typically 1408 01:04:58,200 --> 01:04:59,760 Speaker 1: for example, you want times you might I think Dan 1409 01:04:59,880 --> 01:05:01,680 Speaker 1: Hill does some of those calls. I can't remember, but 1410 01:05:02,160 --> 01:05:06,160 Speaker 1: in general, when you get the Felder Sancho combination, that's 1411 01:05:06,240 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 1: the best combo. I think to learn something new for me. 1412 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 1: It is certainly like when I listen when those two 1413 01:05:12,200 --> 01:05:14,360 Speaker 1: are together. Is to say, I culdland something from DC 1414 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 1: or from DOM. You can, but I'm saying for a 1415 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:20,560 Speaker 1: full broadcast, Felder and Senko together. That's the one where 1416 01:05:20,600 --> 01:05:22,320 Speaker 1: you need to get the notepad out where you can 1417 01:05:22,360 --> 01:05:23,560 Speaker 1: learn a whole lot of new stuff. 1418 01:05:24,080 --> 01:05:25,760 Speaker 2: And look, I don't have a problem with Rogan. He's 1419 01:05:25,760 --> 01:05:28,160 Speaker 2: still classic. It still means a lot when he's there. 1420 01:05:28,320 --> 01:05:31,920 Speaker 2: I just think him and DC together bring out the 1421 01:05:31,960 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 2: worst in each other. So I think if you have 1422 01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:36,840 Speaker 2: that straight man or woman in the third spot, and 1423 01:05:36,880 --> 01:05:38,680 Speaker 2: in this case it was Felder who also can be 1424 01:05:38,760 --> 01:05:41,000 Speaker 2: humorous as well and be cheeky and funny, I think 1425 01:05:41,000 --> 01:05:42,720 Speaker 2: it worked out great. I like it. I like it. Yeah, 1426 01:05:42,840 --> 01:05:45,400 Speaker 2: keep it going. And I like Brendan Fitzgerald too, Luke, 1427 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,240 Speaker 2: He's a solid solid. 1428 01:05:48,000 --> 01:05:51,960 Speaker 1: If Brendan Fitzgerald is like criminally underrated, yeah, how good 1429 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:54,800 Speaker 1: he is. He is very very he has a very 1430 01:05:54,800 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 1: bright future in MMA or other places, so he's really good. 1431 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:01,040 Speaker 1: I like him a lot. All right with that, BC, 1432 01:06:01,240 --> 01:06:02,840 Speaker 1: let's turn our attention if we can. I want to 1433 01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:04,680 Speaker 1: remind fulks one more time. We did talk about the 1434 01:06:04,800 --> 01:06:07,840 Speaker 1: entire premium card on extra Credit. That's already up. I 1435 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:09,960 Speaker 1: recorded that bitch at three in the morning, so go 1436 01:06:10,040 --> 01:06:12,080 Speaker 1: watch that, have a gander at it. We're going to 1437 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:13,920 Speaker 1: bring that back, certainly for pay per view. Nights and 1438 01:06:13,960 --> 01:06:15,840 Speaker 1: some other big ones as well. I'm gonna get you 1439 01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: that instant reaction right after it's over. Okay, all right, 1440 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 1: But with that being said, point number five, BC, let's 1441 01:06:21,680 --> 01:06:25,800 Speaker 1: start on the boxing side of things with Teo Femo Lopez. Wow, 1442 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 1: what a return to form made. BC and I absolutely 1443 01:06:30,160 --> 01:06:32,120 Speaker 1: shut our mouths. But it wasn't just us. He was 1444 01:06:32,160 --> 01:06:35,320 Speaker 1: the betting underdog heading into this contest, and a lot 1445 01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:38,880 Speaker 1: of people thought his entire life was in turmoil. BC. 1446 01:06:39,480 --> 01:06:41,040 Speaker 1: I know the scores were close. I don't know if 1447 01:06:41,040 --> 01:06:42,520 Speaker 1: you want to get into it, but in our mind, 1448 01:06:42,560 --> 01:06:46,200 Speaker 1: here's what I'm gonna say, A very clear, unanimous decision 1449 01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,320 Speaker 1: win eight rounds to four was how I had it 1450 01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:53,240 Speaker 1: for Lopez. BC, where did that guy come from? Where 1451 01:06:53,280 --> 01:06:57,080 Speaker 1: has he been? Explain what happened to me on Saturday night? 1452 01:06:57,240 --> 01:07:00,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really hard because you know the fact, when 1453 01:07:00,800 --> 01:07:02,919 Speaker 2: he puts in a performance that elde I mean that, 1454 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:06,440 Speaker 2: that's that's almost the version he was against Lomachenko. And 1455 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:08,760 Speaker 2: I'm not saying Josh Taylor had a great fight. He didn't. 1456 01:07:08,960 --> 01:07:12,560 Speaker 2: Josh Taylor is a great fighter who was humbled and disciplined, 1457 01:07:12,800 --> 01:07:17,040 Speaker 2: but it's because Lopez raised his game when it mattered most. 1458 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 2: The guy Lopez was in the last two fights at 1459 01:07:20,480 --> 01:07:23,960 Speaker 2: one point forty, who was just uneven, who was just 1460 01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:27,560 Speaker 2: you know, remember that after the close win over Sandor Martin. 1461 01:07:27,640 --> 01:07:31,200 Speaker 2: Do I still have it when he needed it most? 1462 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:33,880 Speaker 2: When look, I'm not saying that his life still isn't 1463 01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:36,160 Speaker 2: in turmoil. I know in hindsight. Now we have to 1464 01:07:36,160 --> 01:07:38,520 Speaker 2: figure out how much of that craziness in the build 1465 01:07:38,600 --> 01:07:41,480 Speaker 2: up was real, how much of it was legitimately alarming. 1466 01:07:41,760 --> 01:07:44,200 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what's truly going on. He's legitimately going 1467 01:07:44,240 --> 01:07:47,160 Speaker 2: through a bitter divorce right now. He seems to legitimately 1468 01:07:47,200 --> 01:07:49,600 Speaker 2: be in turmoil over the custody battle for his son 1469 01:07:49,840 --> 01:07:52,160 Speaker 2: and losing half of his money, and it seems like 1470 01:07:52,480 --> 01:07:54,360 Speaker 2: the day to day life of him being the son 1471 01:07:54,400 --> 01:07:57,640 Speaker 2: of his very over the top fighter trainer, like that's 1472 01:07:57,720 --> 01:08:01,640 Speaker 2: just constant turmoil. Watch the Mark ESPN interview if you haven't, 1473 01:08:01,640 --> 01:08:04,440 Speaker 2: that came out last Friday. The two of them are arguing. 1474 01:08:04,440 --> 01:08:06,200 Speaker 2: I mean, Tao's saying I want to die in the ring. 1475 01:08:06,240 --> 01:08:09,040 Speaker 2: I mean, like literally, he's romanticizing the idea of I 1476 01:08:09,120 --> 01:08:10,919 Speaker 2: want to die in the ring. It could not be 1477 01:08:11,600 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 2: more disturbing. His father tried to jump in and be like, no, 1478 01:08:15,000 --> 01:08:17,519 Speaker 2: stop doing this, stop like you know, talking like that, 1479 01:08:17,600 --> 01:08:19,439 Speaker 2: and Tayo's like, see what I have to deal with. 1480 01:08:19,880 --> 01:08:23,639 Speaker 2: We had more than enough reasons to be concerned about 1481 01:08:23,640 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 2: his mental status, about his future, not as a fighter 1482 01:08:26,520 --> 01:08:29,320 Speaker 2: but as a man. I think we still do, so 1483 01:08:29,400 --> 01:08:31,640 Speaker 2: I don't want to lose that. I think he is 1484 01:08:31,720 --> 01:08:35,880 Speaker 2: going through inner turmoil. The difference is like the great ones, 1485 01:08:35,920 --> 01:08:37,280 Speaker 2: and I don't know if he's going to end up 1486 01:08:37,560 --> 01:08:40,080 Speaker 2: on this level of a Floyd Mayweather or of John Jones, 1487 01:08:40,120 --> 01:08:43,800 Speaker 2: who is historically very few people, but I always bring 1488 01:08:43,840 --> 01:08:47,720 Speaker 2: it up, Luke. They're unflappable. Their life could be chaos, 1489 01:08:47,760 --> 01:08:50,599 Speaker 2: but when it matters and the lights are the brightest, 1490 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:54,760 Speaker 2: they come out and they shine. This was a breakthrough 1491 01:08:54,880 --> 01:08:57,679 Speaker 2: performance for a twenty five year old who literally looked 1492 01:08:57,760 --> 01:09:00,760 Speaker 2: like he was on the brink of destruct And I 1493 01:09:00,800 --> 01:09:04,920 Speaker 2: don't think one great win as this was fixes everything personally. 1494 01:09:05,160 --> 01:09:06,760 Speaker 2: He said it afterwards, I don't want to talk about 1495 01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 2: my next opponent. My next opponent's in the courtroom trying 1496 01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:12,719 Speaker 2: to win back my son. That's serious stuff. But let's 1497 01:09:12,760 --> 01:09:17,600 Speaker 2: not look past how freaking brilliant this performance was. I 1498 01:09:17,640 --> 01:09:19,920 Speaker 2: did see Ring Magazine come out with a feature ahead 1499 01:09:19,960 --> 01:09:21,639 Speaker 2: of this fight Luke that I felt in the moment 1500 01:09:22,320 --> 01:09:25,799 Speaker 2: was not disturbing, but a little bit you know, off brand, 1501 01:09:25,800 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 2: where they were like Tao's fooling everybody, He's the maestro 1502 01:09:30,600 --> 01:09:33,160 Speaker 2: in hindsight. Look, I'm not really sure how much of 1503 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:36,559 Speaker 2: this was him purposely putting out a crazy narrative so 1504 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,120 Speaker 2: that we wouldn't talk about what the personal issues he's 1505 01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:41,240 Speaker 2: going through, the fact that he hasn't looked great lately. 1506 01:09:41,320 --> 01:09:41,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1507 01:09:42,120 --> 01:09:45,120 Speaker 2: I don't know what the balance is between how much 1508 01:09:45,160 --> 01:09:47,960 Speaker 2: of this ahead of time was him literally showing us 1509 01:09:47,960 --> 01:09:49,800 Speaker 2: a cry for help of how hard his life is 1510 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:51,960 Speaker 2: and he just happened to be able to turn it 1511 01:09:52,000 --> 01:09:54,360 Speaker 2: up when it mattered. But from a boxing side, not 1512 01:09:54,400 --> 01:09:56,920 Speaker 2: a personal side. He turned it up in a pound 1513 01:09:56,960 --> 01:09:59,800 Speaker 2: fer pound way. Josh Taylor is as big as you 1514 01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:03,120 Speaker 2: can find for a skilled opponent at one forty, and 1515 01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:07,880 Speaker 2: Josh Taylor had a tremendous first round, backing Tayo up 1516 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:09,960 Speaker 2: with those long counter you know, long shots over the 1517 01:10:09,960 --> 01:10:12,719 Speaker 2: top and the big jab. From that point on, Luke, 1518 01:10:13,320 --> 01:10:18,759 Speaker 2: Tao completely disarmed him, disciplined him, did what he wanted 1519 01:10:18,760 --> 01:10:20,720 Speaker 2: with him. Do you remember that moment after round one 1520 01:10:21,200 --> 01:10:24,080 Speaker 2: when Tao's dad was like, figure him out already, and 1521 01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:25,960 Speaker 2: Tayo said, don't worry, I got it, dad, I got 1522 01:10:26,000 --> 01:10:28,719 Speaker 2: it already. I thought that was going to be a major, 1523 01:10:28,840 --> 01:10:31,720 Speaker 2: like you know, big red flag moment. No. Do you 1524 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:33,639 Speaker 2: know how Tao Fema won this fight? His dad would 1525 01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:36,240 Speaker 2: say afterwards that he had screwed up in recent fights 1526 01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:38,680 Speaker 2: trying to get Tao to be the boxer to do 1527 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 2: what we said he probably should be doing more of 1528 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,720 Speaker 2: to get out first with the jab. Tao won this 1529 01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 2: fight how he said it in the postfight interview, by 1530 01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:49,960 Speaker 2: countering the counterpuncher. When you get a guy like Tayo 1531 01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 2: who is so fast, so accurate, but has an IQ 1532 01:10:55,080 --> 01:10:58,000 Speaker 2: that's seven eight levels above his opponent, as he showed 1533 01:10:58,040 --> 01:11:00,720 Speaker 2: in this one, he took a great dang fighter and 1534 01:11:00,760 --> 01:11:03,600 Speaker 2: Taylor and made him a shell of himself. Luke, you 1535 01:11:03,640 --> 01:11:06,000 Speaker 2: said you gave four rounds to Josh Taylor. I watched 1536 01:11:06,000 --> 01:11:08,160 Speaker 2: it a second time. I cannot find more than two 1537 01:11:08,200 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 2: for him. This was a dominant performance, yet the judges 1538 01:11:12,160 --> 01:11:15,280 Speaker 2: had it seven five, seven five and what nine three? 1539 01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:15,880 Speaker 2: The third one? 1540 01:11:16,120 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 1: Mm hm I can understand, dude, I don't get it. 1541 01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:22,800 Speaker 2: You know how many times do I defend boxing and 1542 01:11:22,840 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 2: say that's not corruption, it's just you know, indifference, or 1543 01:11:26,320 --> 01:11:28,439 Speaker 2: it's just somebody was bad at their job. I think 1544 01:11:28,439 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 2: all three missed this, and it does make you nervous 1545 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:33,320 Speaker 2: that what if this fight had been closer? What if 1546 01:11:33,320 --> 01:11:36,080 Speaker 2: Taylor stepped on the gash in the championship rounds? Could 1547 01:11:36,080 --> 01:11:38,160 Speaker 2: he have pulled out a draw or a split decision? 1548 01:11:38,439 --> 01:11:41,960 Speaker 2: It would have been bullshit. Luke Tail was everything he 1549 01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,240 Speaker 2: said he was and everything he used to be on 1550 01:11:45,560 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 2: this night. For a twenty five year old now who 1551 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 2: has a seat at the table in this division with 1552 01:11:50,360 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 2: a world title, who could make fights you need to 1553 01:11:53,080 --> 01:11:56,200 Speaker 2: see against any number of names from pro grade A 1554 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:59,920 Speaker 2: Jose Ramirez to Tank to Ryan to Devin, across the 1555 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:05,519 Speaker 2: board and more. What a tremendous bounce back performance when 1556 01:12:05,560 --> 01:12:08,040 Speaker 2: he needed it most. Luke. I don't know if he 1557 01:12:08,080 --> 01:12:09,760 Speaker 2: can keep the train on the tracks. I don't know 1558 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:12,280 Speaker 2: if him and his dad are still the right combination 1559 01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:15,040 Speaker 2: in terms of fighter and trainer. But he pressed pause 1560 01:12:15,120 --> 01:12:18,160 Speaker 2: on all that shit that gave us tremendous concern for 1561 01:12:18,240 --> 01:12:20,920 Speaker 2: him as a human being. And whether or not he 1562 01:12:21,000 --> 01:12:23,439 Speaker 2: really is doing okay behind the scenes as a boxer, 1563 01:12:23,760 --> 01:12:26,240 Speaker 2: he's doing just fine. And let's shout out a guy 1564 01:12:26,280 --> 01:12:28,920 Speaker 2: we respect a lot, Steven Bredman Edwards, who seemed to 1565 01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:31,040 Speaker 2: be one of the only people who came out publicly 1566 01:12:31,080 --> 01:12:33,160 Speaker 2: on Twitter ahead of this fight and said, I saw 1567 01:12:33,200 --> 01:12:36,360 Speaker 2: all the interviews you guys did too, but Tail Canon 1568 01:12:36,479 --> 01:12:39,360 Speaker 2: probably will win this because of the skills. I just 1569 01:12:39,400 --> 01:12:42,720 Speaker 2: did not see Josh Taylor having this much trouble with 1570 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:45,280 Speaker 2: the speed and timing. But Luke, if you are trying 1571 01:12:45,320 --> 01:12:47,640 Speaker 2: to walk forward and be the bigger fighter and be 1572 01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:50,120 Speaker 2: the counterpuncher and every time you go to throw you're 1573 01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:54,040 Speaker 2: getting stinged with hard, aggressive, leaping, fast shots, yeah, that 1574 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:55,920 Speaker 2: could be enough to shut off the valve and force 1575 01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:58,679 Speaker 2: you into a defensive posture. And that's what happened on Saturday. 1576 01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:01,920 Speaker 1: Let me ask, and just in terms of the fight itself, 1577 01:13:01,920 --> 01:13:04,559 Speaker 1: because I think that's a great summation of what's happening outside. 1578 01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:08,440 Speaker 1: But more to the fight itself, when did you realize 1579 01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 1: Taylor was in trouble by what round about four or five? 1580 01:13:12,040 --> 01:13:14,200 Speaker 1: To be fair, Really, Yeah, I think that's right. Tell 1581 01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:16,800 Speaker 1: me what you saw, Yeah, I saw just. 1582 01:13:16,760 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 2: What I said, look look like first round when Tayo 1583 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:21,639 Speaker 2: was reading him, you got to see what Josh Taylor 1584 01:13:21,680 --> 01:13:23,960 Speaker 2: does great And I don't want to discount a sixteen 1585 01:13:24,000 --> 01:13:26,160 Speaker 2: month layoff for Taylor and the fact that he's coming 1586 01:13:26,160 --> 01:13:29,240 Speaker 2: off a very, very very flat performance against Jack Caterall. 1587 01:13:29,640 --> 01:13:31,960 Speaker 2: But I know what makes Taylor tick. I've watched that 1588 01:13:32,080 --> 01:13:34,040 Speaker 2: run of beating six straight on beat opponents, and by 1589 01:13:34,040 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 2: the way, you beat one lost victor pos style before that, 1590 01:13:36,520 --> 01:13:39,360 Speaker 2: so this has been a tremendous run. He can box 1591 01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:42,240 Speaker 2: just as good as he can fight, but he loves 1592 01:13:42,280 --> 01:13:44,400 Speaker 2: to be in charge of the taking the lead, whether 1593 01:13:44,439 --> 01:13:46,920 Speaker 2: it's behind the jab or whether crowding you, encountering you. 1594 01:13:47,320 --> 01:13:51,360 Speaker 2: And Tayo's footwork, luke, his IQ, his ability to set 1595 01:13:51,439 --> 01:13:54,760 Speaker 2: traps and then and then leap in and just disrupt 1596 01:13:54,760 --> 01:13:57,920 Speaker 2: the rhythm of Taylor. It was off the charts. It 1597 01:13:58,000 --> 01:14:02,040 Speaker 2: looked like the confidence Tayo shit in the first six 1598 01:14:02,160 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 2: or seven rounds of that Loma fight, and then again 1599 01:14:04,160 --> 01:14:06,840 Speaker 2: in round twelve when he stopped the momentum and put 1600 01:14:06,880 --> 01:14:10,840 Speaker 2: that exclamation down by hurting Loma. He's confident, he's dynamic, 1601 01:14:11,040 --> 01:14:14,120 Speaker 2: He's obviously in great shape and still so young. But 1602 01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:19,400 Speaker 2: do you realize how hard it is mentally to push away, 1603 01:14:19,560 --> 01:14:22,240 Speaker 2: not just all the personal bs, not just all of that, 1604 01:14:22,560 --> 01:14:25,280 Speaker 2: all the media saying you don't have it anymore. You're done. 1605 01:14:25,439 --> 01:14:27,800 Speaker 2: And I don't regret the column I wrote or the 1606 01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:31,720 Speaker 2: things we said, because he was acting batshit crazy to 1607 01:14:31,720 --> 01:14:34,559 Speaker 2: be fair, just off the charts, and he might still be, 1608 01:14:34,600 --> 01:14:38,040 Speaker 2: I hope not, Luke, but inside that ring, he was 1609 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:41,519 Speaker 2: a genius, a technician. He took a guy who just 1610 01:14:41,560 --> 01:14:43,560 Speaker 2: two fights ago was top ten pound for pound and 1611 01:14:43,560 --> 01:14:48,400 Speaker 2: you're undisputed champion and made him look average. Luke, damn 1612 01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:50,960 Speaker 2: bro right. Yeah by round four or five, I'm like, 1613 01:14:51,000 --> 01:14:53,880 Speaker 2: Taylor cannot figure this out? And did you see the 1614 01:14:53,920 --> 01:14:57,120 Speaker 2: look on his face full frustration? In fact, afterwards, Luke 1615 01:14:57,120 --> 01:15:00,599 Speaker 2: the Tartan Tornado did not have a single excuse because 1616 01:15:00,640 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 2: he knew it. He was He was not the better man. 1617 01:15:02,880 --> 01:15:07,000 Speaker 2: He got dominated this This boxing shit is a is 1618 01:15:07,000 --> 01:15:09,760 Speaker 2: a tremendous theater of the bazaar and the unpredictable. Luke, 1619 01:15:10,160 --> 01:15:12,960 Speaker 2: I'm happy from a boxing standpoint that Taylor's that Tao 1620 01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:15,599 Speaker 2: is back. I'm happy that he is. You know that 1621 01:15:15,600 --> 01:15:18,920 Speaker 2: we're not talking about the fact that he was a 1622 01:15:18,920 --> 01:15:22,320 Speaker 2: shooting star and then he flamed out brightly. But dude, 1623 01:15:22,640 --> 01:15:24,240 Speaker 2: I think we're gonna look back at this fight and 1624 01:15:24,280 --> 01:15:26,240 Speaker 2: just say, you want to see the greatness of Tao femo. 1625 01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:28,640 Speaker 2: Look at the way his mind operated, look at the 1626 01:15:28,680 --> 01:15:32,840 Speaker 2: way he sniffed out everything Taylor does. Right, they're gonna 1627 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:34,200 Speaker 2: hear a lot of I told you so is from 1628 01:15:34,280 --> 01:15:37,000 Speaker 2: him and his dad, you know, for a while now, Luke, 1629 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:39,160 Speaker 2: But you know, in a boxing sense, they deserve to 1630 01:15:39,200 --> 01:15:42,160 Speaker 2: say that holy shit, really, holy shit, Luke, Right, Like, 1631 01:15:42,320 --> 01:15:43,360 Speaker 2: good lord. 1632 01:15:43,400 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 1: We kind of had it coming. I mean, we weren't 1633 01:15:45,000 --> 01:15:49,679 Speaker 1: against Lopez, but we were very skeptical that he could 1634 01:15:49,720 --> 01:15:53,240 Speaker 1: do this. I just didn't see this coming, given everything 1635 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:55,400 Speaker 1: else we did see, which to the point you have 1636 01:15:55,479 --> 01:15:58,360 Speaker 1: now made quite clear, has been just a disaster. I 1637 01:15:58,360 --> 01:16:01,840 Speaker 1: can't I can't overstate what Brian is telling you about 1638 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:04,719 Speaker 1: that interview that came out with Mark Kregel. It's a disaster. 1639 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:06,040 Speaker 1: And one of the things he said that you kind 1640 01:16:06,040 --> 01:16:09,200 Speaker 1: of like skipped over very quickly was he didn't just say, 1641 01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:10,639 Speaker 1: look what I have to deal with. What he had 1642 01:16:10,640 --> 01:16:13,759 Speaker 1: said was every time he tries to say something for himself, 1643 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:16,320 Speaker 1: his father tries to talk over it or make him 1644 01:16:16,400 --> 01:16:18,320 Speaker 1: change what he is saying. And what he said to 1645 01:16:18,360 --> 01:16:22,760 Speaker 1: Mark Kregel was, I'm never basically I'm paraphrasing, I'm never 1646 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:24,640 Speaker 1: allowed to say what I want. I'm never allowed to 1647 01:16:24,680 --> 01:16:28,240 Speaker 1: author my own words. Isn't that so frustrating? That's like 1648 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:31,800 Speaker 1: a deep thing, that's like a existentially deep thing that 1649 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:33,640 Speaker 1: he has going on that he has to overcome, and 1650 01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:35,439 Speaker 1: then he goes out there and does that. I mean, 1651 01:16:35,479 --> 01:16:37,720 Speaker 1: that's that's just it's just you can't believe it. But 1652 01:16:37,720 --> 01:16:39,439 Speaker 1: I think that they're right with the approach, dude. The 1653 01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:46,479 Speaker 1: approach was, you know, Lopez, it shouldn't be like it's 1654 01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:48,200 Speaker 1: not that he can't follow a game plan or be 1655 01:16:48,240 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 1: more of a precise boxer. I think he can do 1656 01:16:50,120 --> 01:16:53,160 Speaker 1: those things. But letting him be loose and free and 1657 01:16:53,360 --> 01:16:58,240 Speaker 1: use his athleticism to compute answers quickly, that's where he 1658 01:16:58,280 --> 01:17:00,280 Speaker 1: does his best work. And I think that's what you 1659 01:17:00,320 --> 01:17:03,080 Speaker 1: saw here. Something that frank Frankly, why, dude, I hadn't 1660 01:17:03,080 --> 01:17:06,280 Speaker 1: seen this version of Lopez since he fought Limachenko. That 1661 01:17:06,280 --> 01:17:08,880 Speaker 1: guy's just been not there. That's the difference to me, 1662 01:17:09,040 --> 01:17:12,600 Speaker 1: Like this dude is not the dude who fought cambosis 1663 01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:15,640 Speaker 1: like not at all. This was so much better, so 1664 01:17:15,720 --> 01:17:18,960 Speaker 1: much clearer, so much more thoughtful, so much more menacing 1665 01:17:19,040 --> 01:17:22,519 Speaker 1: and cutting angles and finding delayed timings and smothers and 1666 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:25,120 Speaker 1: everything he needed to to get the job done and 1667 01:17:25,160 --> 01:17:27,400 Speaker 1: not succumbing to the JAB took the job away after 1668 01:17:27,479 --> 01:17:30,200 Speaker 1: one round from Taylor. I thought the JAB would be 1669 01:17:30,280 --> 01:17:32,519 Speaker 1: a huge weapon for Taylor and it only was for 1670 01:17:32,600 --> 01:17:37,040 Speaker 1: three minutes. That's it. So to me, BC, the chaos, 1671 01:17:37,040 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 1: to me just can't long term be a good thing. 1672 01:17:39,160 --> 01:17:41,400 Speaker 1: There's just no way to say that. But I will 1673 01:17:41,439 --> 01:17:45,720 Speaker 1: say it is extremely impressive that he was able to 1674 01:17:45,760 --> 01:17:48,720 Speaker 1: be what he was amidst all of that chaos, and 1675 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:50,120 Speaker 1: that speaks to his amazing quo. 1676 01:17:50,280 --> 01:17:52,519 Speaker 2: I think, look, I think we can say, look, we 1677 01:17:52,560 --> 01:17:54,839 Speaker 2: didn't give Tayl a lot of credit that he wanted 1678 01:17:54,880 --> 01:17:58,679 Speaker 2: for how he gutted out the cambosis loss. Why because 1679 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:00,280 Speaker 2: all he did was talk about at that it was 1680 01:18:00,280 --> 01:18:03,160 Speaker 2: a conspiracy against him. All he did was was complain, 1681 01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 2: you guys aren't giving me credit for almost dying and 1682 01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:08,200 Speaker 2: fighting through. But in hindsight, Luke, that's not him, that 1683 01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:10,640 Speaker 2: wasn't him. He told me on the podcast. You know 1684 01:18:10,680 --> 01:18:12,360 Speaker 2: a couple of months later after that fight that he 1685 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:14,280 Speaker 2: fought like an animal in that first round because he 1686 01:18:14,360 --> 01:18:16,960 Speaker 2: knew he didn't have the wind to go the distance. 1687 01:18:17,240 --> 01:18:19,080 Speaker 2: He knew he was compromised. He had a tear in 1688 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:21,479 Speaker 2: his esophagus that may or may not have come from 1689 01:18:21,479 --> 01:18:23,200 Speaker 2: that body shot from the mountain man, Luke and that 1690 01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:25,200 Speaker 2: viral video and during training camp, just want to remind 1691 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:27,599 Speaker 2: you of that. But the whole reason why we missed 1692 01:18:27,600 --> 01:18:30,080 Speaker 2: this wasn't just the crazy comments. It was the flat 1693 01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:33,200 Speaker 2: fights last two times out. He didn't know, you know, 1694 01:18:33,360 --> 01:18:34,960 Speaker 2: like he was trying to be a boxer, but wasn't 1695 01:18:35,000 --> 01:18:38,360 Speaker 2: committing to the jab. He wasn't dynamic in next level. 1696 01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:41,760 Speaker 2: Maybe it was the higher level of competition that forced 1697 01:18:41,840 --> 01:18:44,880 Speaker 2: him to train harder and raise his game, or maybe Luke, 1698 01:18:44,960 --> 01:18:49,559 Speaker 2: there is some element of him playing maestro with us. Again, 1699 01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:52,680 Speaker 2: I don't think all that personal stuff was made up. 1700 01:18:52,760 --> 01:18:55,160 Speaker 2: He's legitimately going through that turmoil. And I think the 1701 01:18:55,200 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 2: Mark Krigle interview, and I want to give Crego credit 1702 01:18:57,240 --> 01:18:59,439 Speaker 2: because he stood in the pocket there as Tao's standing 1703 01:18:59,479 --> 01:19:02,840 Speaker 2: up yelling at him and almost playing arms psychologists and 1704 01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:05,040 Speaker 2: saying I know how hard this is for you to 1705 01:19:05,200 --> 01:19:07,679 Speaker 2: live up to the expectations of your family, to carry 1706 01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:10,760 Speaker 2: your family on your shoulders. I actually think all that 1707 01:19:10,880 --> 01:19:13,160 Speaker 2: is real, and you saw that come out. But what 1708 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,280 Speaker 2: I do think, Luke, is Tao played us from the 1709 01:19:16,280 --> 01:19:19,280 Speaker 2: standpoint of let me throw out that comment about killing him, 1710 01:19:19,360 --> 01:19:21,200 Speaker 2: let me throw out that comment about dying in the ring. 1711 01:19:21,320 --> 01:19:24,240 Speaker 2: Let me ramp up this comment about this so that 1712 01:19:24,400 --> 01:19:27,000 Speaker 2: it could take the pressure off of his game and 1713 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:30,080 Speaker 2: also keep him in the headlines. I think that this 1714 01:19:30,200 --> 01:19:32,679 Speaker 2: three fight stretch where he stopped being the guy who 1715 01:19:32,680 --> 01:19:36,320 Speaker 2: beat Lomachenko, I think Tao did not like watching Jervonte 1716 01:19:36,439 --> 01:19:39,920 Speaker 2: become an absolute superstar. Ryan Garcia, Devin Hainey, Shaker Stevenson, 1717 01:19:40,120 --> 01:19:42,959 Speaker 2: all of these guys in his class of young breakout 1718 01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:45,559 Speaker 2: fighters were getting all their flowers in big pay per 1719 01:19:45,640 --> 01:19:48,960 Speaker 2: view moments, and he was, you know, stuffed, stuck, trying 1720 01:19:48,960 --> 01:19:50,760 Speaker 2: to go to a new division and figure it out. 1721 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,360 Speaker 2: I think some of this was him bringing more attention 1722 01:19:53,439 --> 01:19:57,040 Speaker 2: on himself to motivate himself. But look what it did, Luke. 1723 01:19:57,160 --> 01:20:00,639 Speaker 2: Here's the heart, here's the real question. Here that version 1724 01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:03,959 Speaker 2: of tale from Saturday Night. Is that guy a problem 1725 01:20:04,479 --> 01:20:08,320 Speaker 2: for HAINI Tank and shaker yes or no in your 1726 01:20:08,320 --> 01:20:11,080 Speaker 2: opinion that version of him? Yes, yeah, I think you're 1727 01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:14,960 Speaker 2: damn Rice. I think who else fights like this? Nobody? 1728 01:20:15,240 --> 01:20:18,160 Speaker 2: You can't, you know what I mean, Like, it's ridiculous 1729 01:20:18,479 --> 01:20:21,599 Speaker 2: how good he is when he can produce that version 1730 01:20:21,640 --> 01:20:23,760 Speaker 2: of himself. Damn man. 1731 01:20:24,200 --> 01:20:25,519 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I'm not going to make a Roy 1732 01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:27,920 Speaker 1: Jones comparison because I think that would be way way off. 1733 01:20:27,960 --> 01:20:31,439 Speaker 1: But there's a little bit, a little bit of that 1734 01:20:31,560 --> 01:20:35,720 Speaker 1: improvisational Roy Jones magic that he has and that that 1735 01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 1: has been given him. Like you wouldn't teach his style. 1736 01:20:38,720 --> 01:20:41,280 Speaker 1: It's too difficult to follow. It's just his own kind 1737 01:20:41,320 --> 01:20:43,720 Speaker 1: of thing. But he makes it work. He made it 1738 01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:46,080 Speaker 1: work to great effect. We slept on, so you see. 1739 01:20:46,160 --> 01:20:48,160 Speaker 1: It leads to the second part of this conversation, which 1740 01:20:48,200 --> 01:20:50,439 Speaker 1: is he kind of indicated he was going to retire. 1741 01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:51,960 Speaker 1: The only thing that could bring him back, he told 1742 01:20:52,000 --> 01:20:54,479 Speaker 1: I think Sean Porter on his podcast over the weekend, 1743 01:20:54,680 --> 01:20:57,479 Speaker 1: was you know, I've made one hundred million a nine 1744 01:20:57,479 --> 01:21:01,080 Speaker 1: figure deal. I've made a hundred million for ESPN. That's 1745 01:21:01,080 --> 01:21:03,040 Speaker 1: what it would take to bring me back. It's like, well, Tao, 1746 01:21:03,080 --> 01:21:04,320 Speaker 1: I want them to see you get paid but you 1747 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,320 Speaker 1: didn't make a hundred million for ESPN. I can assure 1748 01:21:06,360 --> 01:21:08,000 Speaker 1: you that. So yeah, So what is next? 1749 01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:10,960 Speaker 2: So here's the deal. Tao's issue. If you watch the 1750 01:21:10,960 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 2: interviews closely leading into this fight, we're financial him and 1751 01:21:13,960 --> 01:21:16,400 Speaker 2: his dad claimed they brought the big bud Light sponsorship 1752 01:21:16,439 --> 01:21:18,040 Speaker 2: to Top Rank and ESPN, and they don't feel like 1753 01:21:18,040 --> 01:21:20,439 Speaker 2: they're getting rewarded for that. They felt that they were 1754 01:21:20,479 --> 01:21:22,760 Speaker 2: promised a pay per view fight in this instance, and 1755 01:21:22,880 --> 01:21:25,559 Speaker 2: also promised to fight at the big arena in MSG. 1756 01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:29,240 Speaker 2: Instead they're in the tiny theater upstairs and it's off 1757 01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:30,800 Speaker 2: pay per view. Now, Luke, you could just as well 1758 01:21:30,880 --> 01:21:33,320 Speaker 2: argue that being off pay per view but on ESPN 1759 01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:35,800 Speaker 2: brings bigger eyeballs, but it doesn't bring more money. And 1760 01:21:35,840 --> 01:21:38,160 Speaker 2: maybe it's because the same night ESPN had the UFC 1761 01:21:38,200 --> 01:21:39,599 Speaker 2: pay per view, and I don't know if they wanted 1762 01:21:39,800 --> 01:21:41,760 Speaker 2: head to head pay per views going on. But the 1763 01:21:41,800 --> 01:21:45,280 Speaker 2: whole point is they feel like they're criminally underpaid. Now 1764 01:21:45,320 --> 01:21:49,640 Speaker 2: they are over enhancing their brand, I believe, even with 1765 01:21:49,760 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 2: this performance. But I do wonder what this means moving 1766 01:21:53,280 --> 01:21:56,320 Speaker 2: forward for his relationship with Top Rank and ESPN and 1767 01:21:56,360 --> 01:21:59,639 Speaker 2: whether they can restructure a deal and get him more 1768 01:21:59,680 --> 01:22:02,599 Speaker 2: money to keep them happy, or whether this does lead 1769 01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:04,599 Speaker 2: to him trying to force his way out of his 1770 01:22:04,640 --> 01:22:07,840 Speaker 2: current deal by doing this, by threatening retirement, by saying 1771 01:22:07,840 --> 01:22:09,920 Speaker 2: all this stuff. Because again, if you watch the interviews 1772 01:22:09,920 --> 01:22:11,880 Speaker 2: closely in the lead up, he did touch on these things. 1773 01:22:12,080 --> 01:22:14,320 Speaker 2: He touched on how moving forward, I'm not going to 1774 01:22:14,360 --> 01:22:15,800 Speaker 2: accept this type of money. I want to start my 1775 01:22:15,840 --> 01:22:17,599 Speaker 2: own promotional company. I want to do this, and that 1776 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:21,040 Speaker 2: we could be looking at issues here, Luke. I think 1777 01:22:21,520 --> 01:22:23,800 Speaker 2: unless Top Rank throws a little bit more cash on 1778 01:22:23,840 --> 01:22:26,320 Speaker 2: it or what. But you want to talk about future 1779 01:22:26,320 --> 01:22:28,360 Speaker 2: matchups across the board, and by the way, one forty 1780 01:22:28,479 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 2: also has you know, names like Roly Romero and Adrian 1781 01:22:32,200 --> 01:22:33,760 Speaker 2: Broner who will get to you later. So like there's 1782 01:22:33,800 --> 01:22:37,599 Speaker 2: all different kinds of matchups available to him. All of 1783 01:22:37,640 --> 01:22:40,759 Speaker 2: them are great. But I think in addition to figuring 1784 01:22:40,800 --> 01:22:43,559 Speaker 2: out his custody battle outside, I think him and his 1785 01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:45,519 Speaker 2: dad need to figure out the issues between them. And 1786 01:22:45,560 --> 01:22:47,920 Speaker 2: I do think Tao as a fighter with Bob Aram 1787 01:22:48,120 --> 01:22:50,360 Speaker 2: and ESPN a top rank need to figure out the 1788 01:22:50,400 --> 01:22:53,120 Speaker 2: divide between them. Does he deserve more than the one 1789 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:55,920 Speaker 2: million he said he got paid for this tailor fight. Yeah, 1790 01:22:55,960 --> 01:22:58,720 Speaker 2: I agree with that, But him saying I want one 1791 01:22:58,800 --> 01:23:00,679 Speaker 2: hundred million, I mean that could just be him throwing 1792 01:23:00,680 --> 01:23:02,679 Speaker 2: a huge number to try to meet in the middle. 1793 01:23:02,720 --> 01:23:06,000 Speaker 2: Of course it's public negotiation, but I do have a 1794 01:23:06,000 --> 01:23:08,040 Speaker 2: little bit of fear in that regard Luke, like, does 1795 01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:11,080 Speaker 2: this lead to him taking on the best if they 1796 01:23:11,120 --> 01:23:13,160 Speaker 2: aren't willing to pay? Is this going to lead to 1797 01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:13,799 Speaker 2: some corpout? 1798 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:14,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. 1799 01:23:14,200 --> 01:23:17,160 Speaker 2: I hope not. Tayo's back in a very strong position 1800 01:23:17,200 --> 01:23:19,280 Speaker 2: now with the world title and and you know, this 1801 01:23:19,360 --> 01:23:21,400 Speaker 2: type of buzz behind him, but they do have to 1802 01:23:21,400 --> 01:23:23,120 Speaker 2: figure out some of those money issues. I mean, well, 1803 01:23:23,200 --> 01:23:25,160 Speaker 2: you think Bob Arnim will just dig in and say, no, dude, 1804 01:23:25,160 --> 01:23:27,640 Speaker 2: you're under contract. That's what it is. Take the money here, 1805 01:23:27,680 --> 01:23:29,040 Speaker 2: you know, or leave it. I don't know. 1806 01:23:29,560 --> 01:23:31,559 Speaker 1: I just feel like the guy needs to. Mean, it's 1807 01:23:31,680 --> 01:23:34,800 Speaker 1: amazing that he was able to persevere in spite of 1808 01:23:34,840 --> 01:23:39,360 Speaker 1: what has gone on, whether perceived or real as a problem. Right, 1809 01:23:40,720 --> 01:23:42,519 Speaker 1: So that to me is the part that is really 1810 01:23:42,520 --> 01:23:45,880 Speaker 1: impressive and for which I am like honestly grateful almost 1811 01:23:45,960 --> 01:23:48,000 Speaker 1: in a way to see this version of Tayo Femal 1812 01:23:48,080 --> 01:23:50,599 Speaker 1: Lopez back again. But who could really look at this 1813 01:23:50,640 --> 01:23:53,920 Speaker 1: and say this is an ingredient for success. This is 1814 01:23:53,920 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 1: setting him up for his best long term self like 1815 01:23:57,080 --> 01:24:01,840 Speaker 1: to the point that you raise some some resolution needs 1816 01:24:01,840 --> 01:24:03,800 Speaker 1: to happen, like there has to be something steady or 1817 01:24:03,920 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 1: happening in his life for him to see the fullest 1818 01:24:06,439 --> 01:24:07,960 Speaker 1: version of what he could be. As long as he's 1819 01:24:08,000 --> 01:24:10,800 Speaker 1: doing this, he's just fighting uphill and God bless him. 1820 01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:13,799 Speaker 1: He did it amazingly well on Saturday, but it's still uphill, 1821 01:24:13,800 --> 01:24:14,960 Speaker 1: and I don't even know if he wants it. To 1822 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:18,599 Speaker 1: your point about the retirement as well, BC, real quickly 1823 01:24:18,640 --> 01:24:22,640 Speaker 1: if I can. One final note, uh, Jimi Mungia and 1824 01:24:22,680 --> 01:24:26,920 Speaker 1: Sergei Dervianchenko on his own had an absolute slobber knocker 1825 01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:29,960 Speaker 1: over the course of twelve rounds. BC. There's been a 1826 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:34,000 Speaker 1: lot of criticism of Jimi Mungia's resume and his run 1827 01:24:34,080 --> 01:24:37,040 Speaker 1: to this point, the excuse me, the vast majority of 1828 01:24:37,080 --> 01:24:40,880 Speaker 1: it extremely fair, So question for you as as follows are, say, 1829 01:24:40,960 --> 01:24:46,080 Speaker 1: statement rather rate Mungia's performance against Derevyanchenko. 1830 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:54,040 Speaker 2: Interesting there there, Look, there's flaws defensively, most importantly Jimi Mongia. 1831 01:24:54,680 --> 01:24:58,040 Speaker 2: It can be a mess. Obviously he's big even for 1832 01:24:58,120 --> 01:24:59,840 Speaker 2: this quake class at one sixty A. I mean he 1833 01:24:59,880 --> 01:25:02,720 Speaker 2: was weight bully at fifty four, but this at one 1834 01:25:02,760 --> 01:25:05,200 Speaker 2: sixty eed, he's still big. Yes, he has power and 1835 01:25:05,280 --> 01:25:08,280 Speaker 2: his chin is through the roof. So overall, Luke, I'm 1836 01:25:08,280 --> 01:25:10,479 Speaker 2: gonna give him a seven and a half. And that's 1837 01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:14,000 Speaker 2: because you could make the argument again that Derevinchenko won 1838 01:25:14,040 --> 01:25:15,559 Speaker 2: this fight. If you want to know how I scored it, 1839 01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:17,600 Speaker 2: I ended up scoring it six rounds even, but with 1840 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:20,880 Speaker 2: the late knockdown one fourteen, one thirteen for Mungia. Two 1841 01:25:20,920 --> 01:25:22,960 Speaker 2: of the three judges had that. The third judge had 1842 01:25:22,960 --> 01:25:26,800 Speaker 2: it wider for himI. Unfortunately, it plays into the trend 1843 01:25:26,880 --> 01:25:28,920 Speaker 2: for the thirty seven year old Divindchenko that we've seen 1844 01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:30,880 Speaker 2: when he goes up there against the elite. He puts 1845 01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:35,320 Speaker 2: fourth a balls out, incredible performance of heart mixed with technique, 1846 01:25:35,880 --> 01:25:38,880 Speaker 2: but usually comes up just short. Unlike the glove Can fight, 1847 01:25:38,920 --> 01:25:42,240 Speaker 2: which I felt Dervinchenko won, this one was, like I said, 1848 01:25:42,280 --> 01:25:44,040 Speaker 2: I had it even. It's really up in the air. 1849 01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:46,720 Speaker 2: It could have gone either way. Mongea is gonna get 1850 01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:48,800 Speaker 2: big fights after this. In my opinion, I think they're 1851 01:25:48,800 --> 01:25:51,479 Speaker 2: done with the Let's match him softly, but I think 1852 01:25:51,479 --> 01:25:54,400 Speaker 2: behind the scenes they do understand though Luke, I don't 1853 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,439 Speaker 2: know if he's gonna win these big fights, whether he 1854 01:25:56,439 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 2: gets Canelo, I know. I don't know if he saw 1855 01:25:58,200 --> 01:26:00,120 Speaker 2: in the locker room. Afterwards, he got a phone call 1856 01:26:00,320 --> 01:26:03,160 Speaker 2: from Jose Benavidez Senior, the trainer and father of David, 1857 01:26:03,320 --> 01:26:04,960 Speaker 2: and they said, look, we'd love to make this fight. 1858 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:06,240 Speaker 2: I think a lot of people are going to want 1859 01:26:06,280 --> 01:26:08,880 Speaker 2: to make the fight against him because he's a forty 1860 01:26:08,920 --> 01:26:11,680 Speaker 2: two year forty two to zero Mexican fighter with a 1861 01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:13,160 Speaker 2: good fan base behind him. I don't know if you 1862 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:16,520 Speaker 2: heard that crowd in Ontario. They were chanting throughout in California. 1863 01:26:17,120 --> 01:26:20,920 Speaker 2: But Luke, he's vulnerable and darrevin Chenko fought his ass 1864 01:26:20,920 --> 01:26:23,760 Speaker 2: off and poured out the jug and again could have 1865 01:26:23,800 --> 01:26:27,400 Speaker 2: gotten his hand raised. But Hami Mongia is a warrior. 1866 01:26:27,439 --> 01:26:29,679 Speaker 2: He bites down, but he's got a lot of holes 1867 01:26:29,680 --> 01:26:31,920 Speaker 2: in his game for the elite level. I don't think 1868 01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:33,640 Speaker 2: he gets an elite win from here on out. I 1869 01:26:33,640 --> 01:26:35,320 Speaker 2: do think he'll make a lot of money. He's got 1870 01:26:35,320 --> 01:26:38,040 Speaker 2: that glossy record. I hope he's ready to match himself 1871 01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:41,160 Speaker 2: big moving forward. But I want to say two things 1872 01:26:41,200 --> 01:26:43,200 Speaker 2: before I throw it back to you. One, this may 1873 01:26:43,280 --> 01:26:44,600 Speaker 2: end up being your fight of the year. If you 1874 01:26:44,600 --> 01:26:46,599 Speaker 2: have not seen this, get onto the zone and check 1875 01:26:46,640 --> 01:26:49,360 Speaker 2: it out. And Two, Luke that do his zone announced 1876 01:26:49,360 --> 01:26:51,240 Speaker 2: team they don't get a lot of fanfare. It was 1877 01:26:51,320 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 2: Corey Erdman filling in for Todd Grisham, it was Chris Mannis, 1878 01:26:54,160 --> 01:26:56,800 Speaker 2: and it was Sergio Mora. They called the shit out 1879 01:26:56,800 --> 01:27:00,759 Speaker 2: of this fight, Mora in particular, this is high theater, 1880 01:27:00,960 --> 01:27:04,519 Speaker 2: a tremendous fight. The Golden Boy announcer afterwards comically said 1881 01:27:04,520 --> 01:27:06,759 Speaker 2: this is one of the greatest fights in boxing history 1882 01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:08,880 Speaker 2: when he announced the scores, which I think was way 1883 01:27:08,920 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 2: too far. But this was a great, great fight and 1884 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:15,599 Speaker 2: my only reason I give him seven and a half 1885 01:27:15,680 --> 01:27:18,280 Speaker 2: as a score, Luke, is because how many monkey is 1886 01:27:18,360 --> 01:27:20,600 Speaker 2: Defensive issues at this weight class are going to be 1887 01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:22,960 Speaker 2: a problem against punchers. There's no question about it. 1888 01:27:23,200 --> 01:27:25,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, dude, his defense like his there's just no head 1889 01:27:26,000 --> 01:27:30,040 Speaker 1: movement really at all at all. And darvian Chenko, I dude, 1890 01:27:30,080 --> 01:27:32,920 Speaker 1: darvian Chenko was hitting this dude with a sledgehammer repeatedly. 1891 01:27:33,760 --> 01:27:37,800 Speaker 1: It was shocking how much damage he was taking in 1892 01:27:37,840 --> 01:27:40,479 Speaker 1: that fifth round. How he hung on and didn't even 1893 01:27:40,520 --> 01:27:43,920 Speaker 1: take a knee. To your point about Ngia's chin, Holy 1894 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:49,000 Speaker 1: goddamn that chin is absurd. But dude, he gets hit 1895 01:27:49,800 --> 01:27:52,920 Speaker 1: way too easily. Canelo would capitate him. There's not a 1896 01:27:53,000 --> 01:27:55,160 Speaker 1: doubt in my mind. A lot of the big punchers 1897 01:27:55,160 --> 01:27:57,719 Speaker 1: at one sixty eight I think would do some damage 1898 01:27:57,760 --> 01:27:59,800 Speaker 1: to him. But they would be fun fights, and I 1899 01:27:59,800 --> 01:28:01,519 Speaker 1: think that there is some interest in making them for 1900 01:28:01,560 --> 01:28:04,120 Speaker 1: all the reasons that you articulated. One note about Derre 1901 01:28:04,200 --> 01:28:07,240 Speaker 1: Vanchenko BC, I mean, let's go through his losses here. Right, 1902 01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 1: the Bungilla fight, you could argue he could have won, Right, 1903 01:28:10,560 --> 01:28:13,120 Speaker 1: the Daniel Jacobs fight. There are some folks who think 1904 01:28:13,160 --> 01:28:15,120 Speaker 1: he won. It was a split decision. In fact, the 1905 01:28:15,160 --> 01:28:18,000 Speaker 1: glove Can fight was a unanimous decision. I thought Deryvianchenko 1906 01:28:18,080 --> 01:28:20,439 Speaker 1: did win that contest. Now I thought he lost cleanly 1907 01:28:21,120 --> 01:28:24,760 Speaker 1: to Jamel charge Me Jamal Charlo. I don't remember the 1908 01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:27,519 Speaker 1: Carlos Adamas fight. Maybe you do better than media. 1909 01:28:27,640 --> 01:28:29,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a jority decision and if he would 1910 01:28:29,920 --> 01:28:31,680 Speaker 2: have used his job more, he could have won it. 1911 01:28:31,680 --> 01:28:33,920 Speaker 2: But credit Adamis had a kind of like a breakthrough 1912 01:28:33,920 --> 01:28:35,200 Speaker 2: performance there to get by him. 1913 01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:37,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, So what I'm saying is he's had these losses 1914 01:28:37,960 --> 01:28:41,400 Speaker 1: Jacob's glovekn Charlo, Adamas, Mungia, all of the names he's 1915 01:28:41,400 --> 01:28:44,080 Speaker 1: fought where he either really should have won or was 1916 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:46,600 Speaker 1: like just up against it, coming up short. But in 1917 01:28:46,640 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 1: the end he has five losses. He has a fourteen 1918 01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:51,160 Speaker 1: to five record, and you just wouldn't know it. He's 1919 01:28:51,200 --> 01:28:53,920 Speaker 1: been the guy that gave I mean, I remember what 1920 01:28:53,960 --> 01:28:56,520 Speaker 1: a boost it was. Certainly it's a boost now for Mungia. 1921 01:28:56,600 --> 01:28:58,280 Speaker 1: It's a It was a boost for Charlo that was 1922 01:28:58,360 --> 01:29:00,479 Speaker 1: during the pandemic. You and I called that in September 1923 01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:03,439 Speaker 1: of twenty twenty at the Mohegan Sun and then the 1924 01:29:03,439 --> 01:29:06,320 Speaker 1: Glove Can fight boosted him as this guy where yes 1925 01:29:06,360 --> 01:29:08,080 Speaker 1: he lost, but he was the guy that was kind 1926 01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:10,920 Speaker 1: of underappreciated by boxing. He just would have been that 1927 01:29:11,040 --> 01:29:14,280 Speaker 1: dude this whole way. But Mungia is gonna get lit 1928 01:29:14,360 --> 01:29:16,320 Speaker 1: up like a Christmas tree by any good fighter at 1929 01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:18,719 Speaker 1: one sixty eight he faces. But goddamn if it won't 1930 01:29:18,760 --> 01:29:22,280 Speaker 1: be a good fun fight before that, you know, So 1931 01:29:22,360 --> 01:29:23,920 Speaker 1: let's get him in there. I suppose here's. 1932 01:29:23,720 --> 01:29:26,000 Speaker 2: What's weird, though, I want to say, how do we 1933 01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:30,400 Speaker 2: explain that Mongea's last seven fights were against you know, 1934 01:29:30,560 --> 01:29:34,840 Speaker 2: average to really sub average competition. I wonder if it's 1935 01:29:34,840 --> 01:29:37,080 Speaker 2: the people behind him. He's co promoted by Golden Boy 1936 01:29:37,120 --> 01:29:40,360 Speaker 2: and Zanfer Promotions, Fernando Beltron there in Mexico. I wonder 1937 01:29:40,360 --> 01:29:43,559 Speaker 2: if they just see what we see, Luke, I'm not sure. 1938 01:29:43,560 --> 01:29:45,280 Speaker 2: But at the same time, a year ago he was 1939 01:29:45,280 --> 01:29:47,200 Speaker 2: talking about maybe going up to one seventy five and 1940 01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:50,080 Speaker 2: challenging Bevill, which is wild. I think the fight to 1941 01:29:50,160 --> 01:29:53,200 Speaker 2: make for him as he progresses. Here's forty two and zero. 1942 01:29:53,840 --> 01:29:57,320 Speaker 2: Is that group Berlanga who got ways with top rank 1943 01:29:57,720 --> 01:30:01,240 Speaker 2: signed by Mattrium sport on that the defence TV wise, 1944 01:30:01,280 --> 01:30:03,960 Speaker 2: they both have a lot of questions. There you go, Luke, 1945 01:30:04,040 --> 01:30:06,040 Speaker 2: there you go, Madison Square Garden, let's do it. 1946 01:30:06,080 --> 01:30:07,920 Speaker 1: Okay, there you go, Yeah you could, you could do 1947 01:30:07,960 --> 01:30:10,559 Speaker 1: something big there. That's interesting. Wow, I hadn't thought about that. 1948 01:30:10,680 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 1: And honestly mcgiel would win that one, you think probably, yeah, right, 1949 01:30:16,240 --> 01:30:17,559 Speaker 1: he probably would win that one. 1950 01:30:18,960 --> 01:30:21,519 Speaker 2: I know what I mean say from what we know now, Yes, 1951 01:30:21,600 --> 01:30:23,680 Speaker 2: but Burlonga has a ton of talent. But yeah, he's 1952 01:30:23,680 --> 01:30:26,400 Speaker 2: not a bad He's on a bad run of decision 1953 01:30:26,439 --> 01:30:28,719 Speaker 2: wins where he doesn't look great. They're both questionable talents. 1954 01:30:28,760 --> 01:30:34,160 Speaker 2: I mean, look, Monkey's chin a plus his his his 1955 01:30:34,400 --> 01:30:37,040 Speaker 2: warrior spirit was there. I liked a lot of the 1956 01:30:37,080 --> 01:30:39,439 Speaker 2: things he did offensively. So like I'm not saying he's 1957 01:30:39,840 --> 01:30:42,559 Speaker 2: a broken you know wheel, I mean he's forty two 1958 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:46,320 Speaker 2: and oh but he I mean, damn dude. I mean 1959 01:30:46,320 --> 01:30:48,719 Speaker 2: he's got a Hall of Famer Eric Moreles in his corner, 1960 01:30:48,880 --> 01:30:51,840 Speaker 2: who you know, certainly fuels the balls. But they got 1961 01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:53,759 Speaker 2: to work on some D something here, man. 1962 01:30:55,040 --> 01:30:57,439 Speaker 1: Like like Brian Campbell got to get to work on 1963 01:30:57,479 --> 01:30:58,639 Speaker 1: that D. You know what I'm saying. 1964 01:30:58,840 --> 01:31:03,960 Speaker 2: Wow, Well, get down on some D you know, get down, 1965 01:31:04,120 --> 01:31:04,679 Speaker 2: dig down. 1966 01:31:04,840 --> 01:31:07,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, all right with that, speaking of D let's go 1967 01:31:07,720 --> 01:31:10,760 Speaker 1: to DM's from the Donks now because our top five 1968 01:31:10,800 --> 01:31:14,360 Speaker 1: topics are over, Let's do it all that fun stuff, 1969 01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:16,559 Speaker 1: all right. This is where we put up questions on 1970 01:31:16,600 --> 01:31:18,840 Speaker 1: social media. You guys fill them up, our producers pick them, 1971 01:31:18,840 --> 01:31:22,240 Speaker 1: and then we answer them. So BC from naznaar Rock 1972 01:31:23,240 --> 01:31:26,960 Speaker 1: thoughts on Pena versus Pennington for the vacant women's Vansamway title. 1973 01:31:27,240 --> 01:31:28,960 Speaker 1: Apparently they were poised to fight each other in the 1974 01:31:28,960 --> 01:31:30,880 Speaker 1: tough finale but things didn't quite pen out that way. 1975 01:31:30,880 --> 01:31:33,200 Speaker 1: Now they are number one and number two in the division, respectively. 1976 01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:36,280 Speaker 1: Book it or keep it? Sure? Why not be c? 1977 01:31:36,439 --> 01:31:36,920 Speaker 1: What do you think? 1978 01:31:37,560 --> 01:31:40,280 Speaker 2: I don't love it, and I'm not discounting Rocky Pennington's 1979 01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:44,360 Speaker 2: win streak that's put her back into contention, Luke, But 1980 01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:47,800 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any buzz for a Paynia Pennington fight, 1981 01:31:47,960 --> 01:31:50,439 Speaker 2: and I think they've got to comeback strong. Here's the deal. 1982 01:31:50,479 --> 01:31:52,519 Speaker 2: We all think forty five is gonna get folded. We 1983 01:31:52,560 --> 01:31:54,599 Speaker 2: all believe it should. Dana more or less said it 1984 01:31:54,640 --> 01:31:57,720 Speaker 2: on Saturday. Amanda was keeping that division alive. They're not 1985 01:31:57,760 --> 01:32:00,240 Speaker 2: going to do the UFC Women's heavyweight idea. I don't 1986 01:32:00,280 --> 01:32:02,960 Speaker 2: think Kayla's walking through that door tomorrow, right. So here's 1987 01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:04,800 Speaker 2: the deal. I think you gotta make what the one 1988 01:32:04,880 --> 01:32:07,200 Speaker 2: thirty five thing a splash. So I'm gonna give you 1989 01:32:07,240 --> 01:32:08,920 Speaker 2: a couple suggestions, and I want you to tell me 1990 01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:10,920 Speaker 2: what you like, Luke, Okay, because I am sorry. I 1991 01:32:10,960 --> 01:32:14,080 Speaker 2: don't like Paya versus Pennington. I don't think that's elite MMA. 1992 01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,559 Speaker 2: I'm really being serious here. They're tough outs. I bet 1993 01:32:16,560 --> 01:32:19,200 Speaker 2: I don't think so you're gonna hate some of these. 1994 01:32:19,200 --> 01:32:24,439 Speaker 2: We get ready, what about Valentina Schefchenko versus Juliana Panna 1995 01:32:24,439 --> 01:32:28,479 Speaker 2: in a rematch? Yes or no? Yes? For the title? 1996 01:32:29,600 --> 01:32:30,879 Speaker 1: Yes? Okay? 1997 01:32:30,960 --> 01:32:33,479 Speaker 2: What about they've never fought each other? And I have 1998 01:32:33,560 --> 01:32:36,040 Speaker 2: been telling you for three years that Holly Holm is 1999 01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:39,240 Speaker 2: not done getting title shots at forty one? Holly Holm 2000 01:32:39,320 --> 01:32:41,519 Speaker 2: versus Juliana Panna for the vacant title. 2001 01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:45,040 Speaker 1: Okay, that doesn't Holme have a fight coming up? 2002 01:32:45,280 --> 01:32:47,880 Speaker 2: She does? Yeah, that's the problem. Here's the other thing 2003 01:32:47,920 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 2: that I think Aaron Bronstead are tweeted out. Aaron Blanchefield 2004 01:32:51,280 --> 01:32:53,200 Speaker 2: has come out and said that she would be willing 2005 01:32:53,240 --> 01:32:57,000 Speaker 2: to move up and wait because the flyweight title picture 2006 01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:00,880 Speaker 2: is crowded at the moment. What about Aaron Blanchfield versus 2007 01:33:00,960 --> 01:33:03,920 Speaker 2: Juliana Penia ding ding Ding Number one? Answer or what? 2008 01:33:04,080 --> 01:33:06,360 Speaker 1: Luke? Yeah, I'll take it. I take it. I mean, 2009 01:33:06,720 --> 01:33:09,719 Speaker 1: you guys know me. I'm usually very skeptical about fast 2010 01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:13,680 Speaker 1: tracking people, even like the bow Nickel types. But in 2011 01:33:13,760 --> 01:33:15,559 Speaker 1: the case of Blanchfield, I might be willing to look 2012 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:17,080 Speaker 1: the other way on that one. I feel like she 2013 01:33:17,080 --> 01:33:19,400 Speaker 1: could already do some damage. I think heard if she's 2014 01:33:19,439 --> 01:33:22,160 Speaker 1: been training since a very young age, so she hear 2015 01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:23,880 Speaker 1: she's gonna peak earlier and then probably get out of 2016 01:33:23,880 --> 01:33:26,720 Speaker 1: the sport a little bit earlier relatively speaking than a 2017 01:33:26,720 --> 01:33:29,679 Speaker 1: lot of other folks. So even though she's very very young, 2018 01:33:30,320 --> 01:33:33,400 Speaker 1: uh BC, Yeah, I wouldn't if they're really looking for 2019 01:33:33,479 --> 01:33:34,960 Speaker 1: and they I just don't feel like they'll go that 2020 01:33:35,040 --> 01:33:36,640 Speaker 1: direction because they want to keep her on track at 2021 01:33:36,680 --> 01:33:39,519 Speaker 1: one twenty five. But I wouldn't be mad at them 2022 01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:40,439 Speaker 1: if they pulled that trigger. 2023 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:43,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, she's twenty four. She would be the youngest female 2024 01:33:43,200 --> 01:33:46,320 Speaker 2: champion of women's and I'm sorry UFC history. If she won, 2025 01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:49,400 Speaker 2: you want to break John Jones's overall record, But that 2026 01:33:49,439 --> 01:33:51,559 Speaker 2: would be interesting. Luke, what do you think is most 2027 01:33:52,000 --> 01:33:54,280 Speaker 2: likely of those four matchups? We just talked about what's 2028 01:33:54,400 --> 01:33:55,439 Speaker 2: most likely from. 2029 01:33:55,320 --> 01:34:02,760 Speaker 1: The UFC PAYNYA and Home Maybe something like that. Probably. 2030 01:34:03,040 --> 01:34:05,400 Speaker 2: I mean, look like Holme has not been bad lately. 2031 01:34:05,439 --> 01:34:07,040 Speaker 2: She you know what I mean? Like, right, I know 2032 01:34:07,120 --> 01:34:08,840 Speaker 2: she didn't have a loss in that stretch of late, 2033 01:34:08,880 --> 01:34:11,720 Speaker 2: but it's not like that's a. 2034 01:34:10,920 --> 01:34:12,919 Speaker 1: It's just a very it's just a very weak division. 2035 01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:15,360 Speaker 2: It is a weak division. So I mean, look, tell 2036 01:34:15,400 --> 01:34:18,839 Speaker 2: me if I'm wrong here, Penya does have star value 2037 01:34:19,000 --> 01:34:21,080 Speaker 2: in her, so that's why we're including her name in 2038 01:34:21,120 --> 01:34:23,599 Speaker 2: all of these. Right, she delivers on the mic, she 2039 01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:27,599 Speaker 2: she makes it special. Dude, if they roll out Paenya Pennington, Man, 2040 01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:30,519 Speaker 2: that feels like to me, it feels this is going 2041 01:34:30,560 --> 01:34:33,120 Speaker 2: to sound really bad. It feels like Montano versus Modafari 2042 01:34:33,240 --> 01:34:33,679 Speaker 2: for the title. 2043 01:34:33,760 --> 01:34:33,920 Speaker 5: Luke. 2044 01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:36,200 Speaker 2: It doesn't feel like a like a you know what 2045 01:34:36,240 --> 01:34:38,160 Speaker 2: I mean. It doesn't feel like an exclamation point on 2046 01:34:38,200 --> 01:34:41,640 Speaker 2: the division. That's why I'm bringing in Blanchfield or Valentina 2047 01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:44,000 Speaker 2: or something. I mean, imagine if Schifchenko becomes a two 2048 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,040 Speaker 2: division champion, that's not a bad idea for the company. 2049 01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:49,679 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I agree with you making it more exciting 2050 01:34:49,760 --> 01:34:52,360 Speaker 1: than that. I think it's pretty important. Actually, I'm with you. 2051 01:34:52,720 --> 01:34:56,479 Speaker 1: I like I like either a Shifchenko or a Blanchefield call, 2052 01:34:56,520 --> 01:34:58,799 Speaker 1: and either one of those I'd be okay with. Okay, 2053 01:34:59,720 --> 01:35:04,080 Speaker 1: all right? From Donnie tsp Uh, we kind of talked 2054 01:35:04,080 --> 01:35:05,679 Speaker 1: about this a little bit BC. But does it seem 2055 01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:08,479 Speaker 1: like Miranda Maverick is regressing pretty significantly? I think it's 2056 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,000 Speaker 1: a little strong. But he writes, quote, she looked like 2057 01:35:11,040 --> 01:35:12,800 Speaker 1: a lock to be a title contender for a few 2058 01:35:12,800 --> 01:35:16,120 Speaker 1: fights ago. Now she looks like a completely different fighter, 2059 01:35:16,160 --> 01:35:18,400 Speaker 1: and not for the better. I wouldn't say completely different. 2060 01:35:18,840 --> 01:35:21,880 Speaker 2: Well, I'm not pushback on lock to be a title contender. No, 2061 01:35:22,040 --> 01:35:22,960 Speaker 2: she has not yet. 2062 01:35:23,400 --> 01:35:25,559 Speaker 1: Look yeah, also that's yeah also but that but that, 2063 01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:27,519 Speaker 1: I don't know that we ever said that. I think 2064 01:35:27,560 --> 01:35:30,160 Speaker 1: we said we she had some serious potential, yes, but 2065 01:35:30,360 --> 01:35:32,639 Speaker 1: lock to be title contender, maybe that's a little strong, 2066 01:35:33,560 --> 01:35:34,800 Speaker 1: But yeah, I just want to think it's headed in 2067 01:35:34,840 --> 01:35:36,760 Speaker 1: the right direction, which could also be she's a maybe 2068 01:35:36,840 --> 01:35:40,000 Speaker 1: like this might sound like, oh it because it's because 2069 01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:41,840 Speaker 1: of who she's training with now, but that's really not 2070 01:35:41,880 --> 01:35:43,680 Speaker 1: necessarily true at all. She could be in one of 2071 01:35:43,680 --> 01:35:46,519 Speaker 1: these parts of her game where she's learning a bunch 2072 01:35:46,560 --> 01:35:48,519 Speaker 1: of new things and it's kind of messing with her 2073 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:50,640 Speaker 1: style and her identity and how to build it the 2074 01:35:50,680 --> 01:35:52,880 Speaker 1: right way in the plateau and you have to push 2075 01:35:52,960 --> 01:35:54,800 Speaker 1: through that to get to the next stage, and it 2076 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:57,120 Speaker 1: just takes a little bit of time. So it could 2077 01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:59,000 Speaker 1: just be a little bit of that going on, not 2078 01:35:59,040 --> 01:36:01,800 Speaker 1: necessarily like ultimately things are headed in the very wrong 2079 01:36:01,840 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 1: direction more than just a bad stop again twenty five 2080 01:36:06,080 --> 01:36:07,640 Speaker 1: years of age. I think people need to be a 2081 01:36:07,760 --> 01:36:09,120 Speaker 1: little bit understanding of that. 2082 01:36:09,240 --> 01:36:11,640 Speaker 2: But did she show on Saturday even if it was 2083 01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:13,400 Speaker 2: a bad night at the office and it was right, 2084 01:36:13,439 --> 01:36:15,679 Speaker 2: she's shooting in the third round when she needs a knockout, 2085 01:36:15,720 --> 01:36:19,519 Speaker 2: like it wasn't a good night. I just I don't know, Luke. 2086 01:36:19,680 --> 01:36:21,960 Speaker 2: Like she didn't show a dominant skill, you know what 2087 01:36:22,040 --> 01:36:26,559 Speaker 2: I'm saying. Like she just like she looked lost. If 2088 01:36:26,560 --> 01:36:29,400 Speaker 2: she can't strike like she's got at the baseline, put 2089 01:36:29,439 --> 01:36:31,960 Speaker 2: together better striking, Like the shots were looping, just just 2090 01:36:32,040 --> 01:36:35,880 Speaker 2: straight jabs were just breaking her down. Like, I don't know, Luke. 2091 01:36:35,880 --> 01:36:37,800 Speaker 2: Would you rather see her amp up her ground game 2092 01:36:37,960 --> 01:36:40,519 Speaker 2: or her or her stand up to try to to 2093 01:36:40,560 --> 01:36:44,120 Speaker 2: try to, you know, move on because it's tough. She's 2094 01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:45,920 Speaker 2: in great shape, she's got a great attitude, she's a 2095 01:36:45,960 --> 01:36:48,280 Speaker 2: smart fighter. But it just it's it's not coming together. 2096 01:36:48,840 --> 01:36:50,680 Speaker 1: Honestly, for me. The biggest thing I keep going back 2097 01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:51,760 Speaker 1: to it. I said it before. I sound like a 2098 01:36:51,800 --> 01:36:54,000 Speaker 1: broken record, but it really is the issue for me 2099 01:36:54,120 --> 01:36:57,080 Speaker 1: is her entries. So she's often short and at a 2100 01:36:57,120 --> 01:36:59,160 Speaker 1: reach disadvantage. I've seen this now in a few of 2101 01:36:59,160 --> 01:37:01,160 Speaker 1: her fights. So get in from the outside to the 2102 01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:03,680 Speaker 1: inside has been a thing that you would imagine is 2103 01:37:03,720 --> 01:37:05,640 Speaker 1: pretty central to her game, both to get to the 2104 01:37:05,680 --> 01:37:08,720 Speaker 1: body lock takedowns, which she sometimes prefers, and also just 2105 01:37:08,800 --> 01:37:10,680 Speaker 1: to land your punches and then get out. And what 2106 01:37:10,720 --> 01:37:14,080 Speaker 1: I've noticed is that the entries have become just a 2107 01:37:14,080 --> 01:37:17,160 Speaker 1: little predictable. They're not the faking and the fainting has 2108 01:37:17,200 --> 01:37:19,400 Speaker 1: not convinced her opponents so they can see it coming. 2109 01:37:19,960 --> 01:37:22,639 Speaker 1: Not putting together the combinations good enough to make them 2110 01:37:22,640 --> 01:37:25,560 Speaker 1: work when there is and if you just can't navigate 2111 01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:28,559 Speaker 1: the space between I mean, dude, the control or the 2112 01:37:28,640 --> 01:37:31,439 Speaker 1: management of the real estate between two fighters is maybe 2113 01:37:31,439 --> 01:37:34,120 Speaker 1: the most important skill. We don't really see it that way. 2114 01:37:34,160 --> 01:37:36,040 Speaker 1: We see the other things as the most important. But 2115 01:37:36,040 --> 01:37:39,439 Speaker 1: if you can control that really, really well, it just 2116 01:37:39,479 --> 01:37:41,799 Speaker 1: sets you up for so much different kinds of success. 2117 01:37:41,840 --> 01:37:44,439 Speaker 1: I think she's having a challenge with that. Yeah, problem 2118 01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:44,720 Speaker 1: for her. 2119 01:37:44,880 --> 01:37:48,920 Speaker 2: What about Miranda Maverick versus King Casey O'Neil Loser leaves 2120 01:37:48,920 --> 01:37:50,120 Speaker 2: Town match, Luke, you're ready for that. 2121 01:37:50,479 --> 01:37:52,240 Speaker 1: I don't know about loser leaves Town, but you could 2122 01:37:52,240 --> 01:37:57,240 Speaker 1: do that fight, all right. You see from Joel watch Wokton. 2123 01:37:58,240 --> 01:38:01,240 Speaker 1: Once these active fighters are all retired, who do you 2124 01:38:01,240 --> 01:38:04,240 Speaker 1: think will have retired with the most wins. Jim Miller 2125 01:38:04,280 --> 01:38:07,320 Speaker 1: at twenty five, currently draws OLIVERA twenty two at currently 2126 01:38:07,400 --> 01:38:11,000 Speaker 1: John Jones at twenty one one RDA twenty one, Max 2127 01:38:11,040 --> 01:38:17,040 Speaker 1: Holloway twenty BCE. I'm gonna say OLIVERA or definitely is 2128 01:38:17,040 --> 01:38:18,920 Speaker 1: going to be my number one answer. I think Max 2129 01:38:18,960 --> 01:38:21,000 Speaker 1: Holloway at twenty could surprise us a little bit. 2130 01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:22,760 Speaker 2: I mean, the thing about Max Holloway is he's still 2131 01:38:22,800 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 2: so ridiculously young, right despite the mileage. Yea, despite the mileage. 2132 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:31,240 Speaker 2: He's showing us that he can reinvent himself. Yeah, him 2133 01:38:31,400 --> 01:38:34,840 Speaker 2: or Charles Luke. I think that. I mean, to be fair, Luke, 2134 01:38:34,880 --> 01:38:37,280 Speaker 2: wouldn't you want the all time wins leader to be 2135 01:38:38,280 --> 01:38:42,280 Speaker 2: more of a title contender than a than sort of 2136 01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:44,800 Speaker 2: like a you know, gatekeeper ish who was able to 2137 01:38:44,840 --> 01:38:47,080 Speaker 2: build long longevity, right, which is. 2138 01:38:47,040 --> 01:38:49,040 Speaker 1: You know, it's funny like I saw dude, I saw 2139 01:38:49,160 --> 01:38:52,400 Speaker 1: DC taking a beaten over his Jim Miller Hall of Fame. 2140 01:38:52,479 --> 01:38:54,360 Speaker 1: Take what do you saying? And I gotta tell you, 2141 01:38:54,400 --> 01:38:56,479 Speaker 1: I don't really understand why he was taking a beaten 2142 01:38:56,520 --> 01:38:58,519 Speaker 1: over it. I get the argument that if you're going 2143 01:38:58,560 --> 01:39:02,400 Speaker 1: to let folks in, who have resumes like Donald SERRONI, 2144 01:39:02,520 --> 01:39:05,679 Speaker 1: which is good for different kinds of reasons other than, 2145 01:39:06,560 --> 01:39:08,800 Speaker 1: you know, the highest level of achievement, then you can't 2146 01:39:08,880 --> 01:39:11,680 Speaker 1: keep out Jim Miller. And I think that argument is 2147 01:39:11,760 --> 01:39:14,040 Speaker 1: fairly strong, but it just sort of gets back, like, 2148 01:39:14,120 --> 01:39:15,519 Speaker 1: let me just do it again, go back to the 2149 01:39:15,560 --> 01:39:18,799 Speaker 1: Amanda Nunaz test. Tell me Jim Miller's best five wins 2150 01:39:18,920 --> 01:39:20,320 Speaker 1: off the top of your head, if you good. I mean, 2151 01:39:20,680 --> 01:39:23,160 Speaker 1: most people can't do that. And this is exactly what 2152 01:39:23,200 --> 01:39:26,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Like the fact that he's got this length 2153 01:39:26,000 --> 01:39:30,759 Speaker 1: of achievement that does deserve to be acknowledged and potentially 2154 01:39:30,760 --> 01:39:35,080 Speaker 1: even consecrated somewhere. I get that. I get that, but like, 2155 01:39:35,240 --> 01:39:37,519 Speaker 1: I don't think that place is the Hall of Fame. 2156 01:39:37,760 --> 01:39:39,240 Speaker 1: I think it's something else. 2157 01:39:39,439 --> 01:39:42,160 Speaker 2: Right, And I think, you know, you gotta be honest here. 2158 01:39:42,160 --> 01:39:45,000 Speaker 2: Cowboy has a couple of things going for him. He was, 2159 01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:48,000 Speaker 2: you know, he was elite in the WEC in a 2160 01:39:48,120 --> 01:39:51,679 Speaker 2: very good era. He was you know, at times pretty 2161 01:39:51,720 --> 01:39:55,479 Speaker 2: damn elite in the UFC. But also he's you know, 2162 01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:59,240 Speaker 2: a star like a character. And also he plays directly 2163 01:39:59,280 --> 01:40:01,960 Speaker 2: into what the company he wants, this this cowboy, this 2164 01:40:02,040 --> 01:40:04,479 Speaker 2: gun slinger, who will fight anybody at any time, and 2165 01:40:04,520 --> 01:40:06,800 Speaker 2: you can put into a main event even when he's 2166 01:40:06,800 --> 01:40:09,000 Speaker 2: passed his prime, and he can carry it. I know 2167 01:40:09,040 --> 01:40:11,400 Speaker 2: that that, like the star side of it doesn't always 2168 01:40:11,400 --> 01:40:13,719 Speaker 2: come into play, but it doesn't matter to a certain degree. 2169 01:40:13,760 --> 01:40:15,680 Speaker 2: It's like, look when Arturo God he got in the 2170 01:40:15,680 --> 01:40:17,679 Speaker 2: Boxing Hall of Fame, you know, ten years ago, whenever 2171 01:40:17,720 --> 01:40:20,680 Speaker 2: it was even though he had been a world you know, 2172 01:40:20,720 --> 01:40:22,800 Speaker 2: a title holder in a division before and had been 2173 01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:25,080 Speaker 2: at that level, he got in because he was a 2174 01:40:25,120 --> 01:40:28,840 Speaker 2: superstar action movie brawler who brought so much joy to 2175 01:40:28,880 --> 01:40:31,479 Speaker 2: people and was this great character, and there were people like, oh, 2176 01:40:31,560 --> 01:40:34,120 Speaker 2: now we're letting in that level. I think sometimes you 2177 01:40:34,160 --> 01:40:37,080 Speaker 2: make an exception. I think Cowboy, you know, doesn't have 2178 01:40:37,120 --> 01:40:39,639 Speaker 2: the same exact legacy of an artural Godi, but there's 2179 01:40:39,680 --> 01:40:43,120 Speaker 2: some similarities. To some degree, I'm okay with Cowboy getting in. 2180 01:40:44,080 --> 01:40:45,960 Speaker 2: It's not that I'm not okay with Jim Miller getting in, 2181 01:40:45,960 --> 01:40:47,559 Speaker 2: and I would love that guy to get you know, 2182 01:40:47,680 --> 01:40:50,280 Speaker 2: nothing but bouquets of flowers on the way out. But 2183 01:40:50,880 --> 01:40:52,600 Speaker 2: you gotta have a line, Luke. They got to have 2184 01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:55,519 Speaker 2: a line, you know. Baseball Hall of Fame Don Mattingly. Yeah, 2185 01:40:55,520 --> 01:40:57,120 Speaker 2: maybe he gets in down the road as a veteran, 2186 01:40:57,200 --> 01:40:58,640 Speaker 2: or maybe he's already and I just didn't realize it. 2187 01:40:58,680 --> 01:41:00,920 Speaker 2: But to him, to me, he would always that line 2188 01:41:01,040 --> 01:41:04,800 Speaker 2: at his best, super elite, injured, couldn't maintain it, you 2189 01:41:04,800 --> 01:41:06,880 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, Luke. And if you got somebody 2190 01:41:06,960 --> 01:41:10,040 Speaker 2: that compiles together great wind streak, but was never top 2191 01:41:10,120 --> 01:41:13,360 Speaker 2: five in their division, never a real title threat, that's 2192 01:41:13,479 --> 01:41:16,160 Speaker 2: that's not hall of fame. Cowboy was super elite at 2193 01:41:16,160 --> 01:41:17,599 Speaker 2: certain points, true or false? True? 2194 01:41:17,640 --> 01:41:21,519 Speaker 1: Right, he fought for a title. Jim Miller's never even 2195 01:41:21,520 --> 01:41:22,280 Speaker 1: fought for a title. 2196 01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:24,240 Speaker 2: Right, So yeah, then that answers it, you know what 2197 01:41:24,320 --> 01:41:24,599 Speaker 2: I mean? 2198 01:41:24,640 --> 01:41:26,720 Speaker 1: Like, yeah, you know what I mean, Like, never even 2199 01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:27,559 Speaker 1: fought for a title. 2200 01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:29,799 Speaker 2: Off the top of your head, what's a better Cowboy 2201 01:41:29,840 --> 01:41:32,120 Speaker 2: win than Eddie Alvarez in his UFC debut, Like there 2202 01:41:32,160 --> 01:41:33,720 Speaker 2: might you know, that might be his best win. Jim 2203 01:41:33,720 --> 01:41:35,160 Speaker 2: Miller doesn't have anything close to that. 2204 01:41:35,320 --> 01:41:37,519 Speaker 1: He just doesn't have a win like that. No, again, 2205 01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:40,000 Speaker 1: that was Eddie Alvarez's UFC debut, But to your point, 2206 01:41:40,040 --> 01:41:42,559 Speaker 1: he was well experienced and Cowboy chewed him up. So 2207 01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:45,519 Speaker 1: take it for what it's worth. Again I did. What 2208 01:41:45,600 --> 01:41:48,840 Speaker 1: he has done is special and deserves special recognition, but 2209 01:41:48,920 --> 01:41:52,880 Speaker 1: not the most special recognition, all right from Jack underscore, 2210 01:41:53,080 --> 01:41:55,960 Speaker 1: M A cool, M mac cool. I don't know he's 2211 01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:57,559 Speaker 1: got two season there. I don't know what the fuck for? 2212 01:41:58,360 --> 01:42:01,799 Speaker 1: Uh okay, with the old Vera win, he's won twelve 2213 01:42:01,880 --> 01:42:05,400 Speaker 1: of thirteen with eleven stoppages. What are some other insane 2214 01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:09,840 Speaker 1: MMA runs that compare with that stretch you see? Like, no, 2215 01:42:10,000 --> 01:42:12,519 Speaker 1: I mean, dude, twelve of thirteen with eleven stoppages is 2216 01:42:12,520 --> 01:42:16,240 Speaker 1: about is just absurd To Charles Olavera is at twenty stoppages, 2217 01:42:16,280 --> 01:42:18,960 Speaker 1: the only person in all of you know, Pride, UFC, 2218 01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:21,000 Speaker 1: Strike Force, WC history that's ahead of that. It's mucro 2219 01:42:21,040 --> 01:42:24,760 Speaker 1: crocup with twenty one. Olivera is almost certain to pass that. 2220 01:42:24,960 --> 01:42:27,000 Speaker 1: It looks like, so he's gonna be the all time 2221 01:42:27,000 --> 01:42:31,080 Speaker 1: stoppage leader for dominant MMA organizations, which is fucking binanes. 2222 01:42:30,760 --> 01:42:32,720 Speaker 2: And gonna be the all time wins leader. Luke and 2223 01:42:33,040 --> 01:42:33,559 Speaker 2: is going. 2224 01:42:33,479 --> 01:42:35,000 Speaker 1: And be the all time wins leader. So like what 2225 01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:39,200 Speaker 1: he's doing is like just shocking and insane. I would 2226 01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:41,080 Speaker 1: say that you always kind of like bag on this, 2227 01:42:41,160 --> 01:42:43,559 Speaker 1: but like do again magoomy Fuji her first I think 2228 01:42:43,560 --> 01:42:46,559 Speaker 1: twenty one fights. She won, no problem. So she had 2229 01:42:46,560 --> 01:42:49,560 Speaker 1: twenty one fight win street going into that, that's a pretty. 2230 01:42:49,280 --> 01:42:52,080 Speaker 2: Good once against who against. 2231 01:42:51,760 --> 01:42:53,400 Speaker 1: The very best fighters at the time. 2232 01:42:54,520 --> 01:42:55,920 Speaker 2: Again against two. 2233 01:42:56,080 --> 01:42:57,800 Speaker 1: Nah, dude, she beat some good fighters. She beat some 2234 01:42:57,800 --> 01:43:00,240 Speaker 1: good fighters along the way. She eventually lost his La 2235 01:43:00,320 --> 01:43:03,320 Speaker 1: Frausto in Bellatore, but that wasn't until she was in 2236 01:43:03,360 --> 01:43:04,320 Speaker 1: her thirties. 2237 01:43:05,400 --> 01:43:08,240 Speaker 2: So okay, My point is not to bag on her. 2238 01:43:08,280 --> 01:43:11,120 Speaker 2: She doesn't belong in this discussion. Rather than ripping off 2239 01:43:11,120 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 2: the greatest wind streaks of all time and we all 2240 01:43:12,880 --> 01:43:15,320 Speaker 2: know who they are, I would rather intercept this question 2241 01:43:15,360 --> 01:43:18,439 Speaker 2: from Jack McCool and ask you this, luke, how does 2242 01:43:18,560 --> 01:43:23,040 Speaker 2: Charles Olavera ascend the top of the all time lightweight 2243 01:43:23,080 --> 01:43:26,040 Speaker 2: Powfu pund rankings ahead of Habib? Is it by beating 2244 01:43:26,080 --> 01:43:27,720 Speaker 2: Mahachev to win back the championship. 2245 01:43:28,400 --> 01:43:31,360 Speaker 1: That's a big one. Like getting two cracks at him 2246 01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:33,760 Speaker 1: and not being able to do it hurts his argument, right, 2247 01:43:33,800 --> 01:43:36,160 Speaker 1: It turns him into like because what that would do 2248 01:43:36,280 --> 01:43:38,599 Speaker 1: is what that would tell you is on any given night, 2249 01:43:38,760 --> 01:43:42,479 Speaker 1: he basically could beat anyone, but against the very best, 2250 01:43:42,560 --> 01:43:45,919 Speaker 1: who were very particular about how they fought. He couldn't, 2251 01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:48,400 Speaker 1: so he had to get it done against just a 2252 01:43:48,640 --> 01:43:51,559 Speaker 1: shade off the best, that's who he's He'd be in 2253 01:43:51,640 --> 01:43:54,320 Speaker 1: between the very very best and then just a shade off. 2254 01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:56,800 Speaker 1: He'd be some kind of in between category. And I 2255 01:43:56,840 --> 01:44:00,559 Speaker 1: do think that would hurt his argument. If they never again, 2256 01:44:00,640 --> 01:44:02,320 Speaker 1: then that changes it too, because you got to figure 2257 01:44:02,320 --> 01:44:03,880 Speaker 1: out who could he beat to then get to that 2258 01:44:03,920 --> 01:44:07,200 Speaker 1: next place. I would say, if he beats Makachev and 2259 01:44:07,400 --> 01:44:13,000 Speaker 1: becomes the all time wins leader as well, Yeah, no, man, 2260 01:44:13,320 --> 01:44:15,439 Speaker 1: that puts you in to the one thing spot, the. 2261 01:44:15,360 --> 01:44:18,559 Speaker 2: One thing against Tabib whenever we're talking about, you know, 2262 01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:23,040 Speaker 2: comparing greatness is getting out early meant he didn't face 2263 01:44:23,200 --> 01:44:26,479 Speaker 2: as many truly elite names as we would have wanted to. 2264 01:44:26,560 --> 01:44:28,719 Speaker 2: Some of that is missing two years in his prime 2265 01:44:28,720 --> 01:44:31,360 Speaker 2: with the injury. Some of that is Ferguson falling apart 2266 01:44:31,360 --> 01:44:32,880 Speaker 2: five times, like we get it. There's been some bad 2267 01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:36,479 Speaker 2: luck mixed in, right, But that means that there's an 2268 01:44:36,479 --> 01:44:39,120 Speaker 2: opening there. Seriously, there is there's an opening there. I mean, 2269 01:44:39,160 --> 01:44:41,679 Speaker 2: you're right if I mean, you know, if Charles wins 2270 01:44:41,680 --> 01:44:44,200 Speaker 2: a second championship in this division, then that may mix 2271 01:44:44,280 --> 01:44:46,720 Speaker 2: with the finished records and the overall most wins if 2272 01:44:46,760 --> 01:44:49,800 Speaker 2: he gets there to do that. But could you make 2273 01:44:49,840 --> 01:44:51,719 Speaker 2: an argument right now that is a better resume Thanhibeb? 2274 01:44:51,800 --> 01:44:52,559 Speaker 2: Yes or no? Right now? 2275 01:44:52,640 --> 01:44:54,479 Speaker 1: Yeah you could. I mean, this is the part that 2276 01:44:54,520 --> 01:44:56,680 Speaker 1: people get wrong about the Habib argument. Like it is 2277 01:44:56,800 --> 01:45:00,439 Speaker 1: true that to never make so costly an error or 2278 01:45:00,640 --> 01:45:03,759 Speaker 1: to be not good enough that you never lost along 2279 01:45:03,800 --> 01:45:06,320 Speaker 1: the way, and the amount of fights that he had 2280 01:45:06,760 --> 01:45:10,200 Speaker 1: like that is a very very commendable thing. But like, 2281 01:45:10,840 --> 01:45:14,599 Speaker 1: for example, like in the same amount of fights, Charles 2282 01:45:14,640 --> 01:45:18,439 Speaker 1: has stumbled, right, Charles has l's long before, and it 2283 01:45:18,479 --> 01:45:20,719 Speaker 1: wasn't just who you beat in the UFC like Charles lost, 2284 01:45:20,800 --> 01:45:25,519 Speaker 1: you know. And I'm saying in that time that Habib 2285 01:45:25,560 --> 01:45:27,680 Speaker 1: had spent in his career to get to was it 2286 01:45:27,720 --> 01:45:29,679 Speaker 1: twenty nine and oh whatever it is, twenty eight, twenty nine, 2287 01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:32,559 Speaker 1: like in the first twenty nine fights, Charles fell short 2288 01:45:32,560 --> 01:45:35,719 Speaker 1: of that. But that doesn't mean that because Habib stopped 2289 01:45:35,760 --> 01:45:38,680 Speaker 1: it there, that that same level of difference between them 2290 01:45:38,720 --> 01:45:41,479 Speaker 1: would continue. In fact, there's no reason to think that 2291 01:45:41,520 --> 01:45:44,439 Speaker 1: whatsoever they could have gone on very different paths past that. 2292 01:45:44,479 --> 01:45:47,360 Speaker 1: We just don't know because he didn't but people use 2293 01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:50,040 Speaker 1: the fact that he was error free earlier in her 2294 01:45:50,160 --> 01:45:53,200 Speaker 1: his career to say that his ultimate upside would be 2295 01:45:53,360 --> 01:45:56,880 Speaker 1: higher past the place where Charles kept going. And you 2296 01:45:56,880 --> 01:45:58,360 Speaker 1: simply don't know that. You simply don't know. 2297 01:45:58,360 --> 01:46:01,600 Speaker 2: Okay, final thing, You're not gonna like this. But we 2298 01:46:01,680 --> 01:46:05,680 Speaker 2: always say, like, what percentage chance would get Habib back 2299 01:46:05,720 --> 01:46:07,200 Speaker 2: up in the bullpen? And right now, if I asked, 2300 01:46:07,240 --> 01:46:09,439 Speaker 2: you'd probably say like two percent out of one hundred 2301 01:46:09,439 --> 01:46:11,800 Speaker 2: that he ever came back and fall right, like almost 2302 01:46:12,120 --> 01:46:17,000 Speaker 2: guaranteed not gonna happen. But what if Charles comes back 2303 01:46:17,000 --> 01:46:21,720 Speaker 2: and knocks Mahachev the hell out, I mean, just flatlines him, Luke, 2304 01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:25,559 Speaker 2: and then gets on the microphone and says, I'm the 2305 01:46:25,600 --> 01:46:29,000 Speaker 2: greatest lightweight of all time. I'm better than Habib that 2306 01:46:29,280 --> 01:46:32,840 Speaker 2: batch I look at, come clean up your man's I mean, 2307 01:46:32,880 --> 01:46:36,000 Speaker 2: is there anything in sendiary, Luke that could draw that 2308 01:46:36,120 --> 01:46:38,719 Speaker 2: man to cross the picket line again and come fight 2309 01:46:38,760 --> 01:46:42,120 Speaker 2: for his honor of his extended team and family, or 2310 01:46:42,560 --> 01:46:45,600 Speaker 2: nothing short of being really ruthless and in gross. 2311 01:46:45,320 --> 01:46:47,880 Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I don't I think even of that. I 2312 01:46:47,920 --> 01:46:53,160 Speaker 1: put the chance at five percent ninety chance it doesn't happen. Okay, okay, 2313 01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:55,400 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. All right, Last, but not 2314 01:46:55,520 --> 01:47:01,080 Speaker 1: least from Volley Jerry with fans falling from the sky 2315 01:47:01,200 --> 01:47:05,879 Speaker 1: this weekend? What other bloopers can you recall? At events? 2316 01:47:05,960 --> 01:47:08,559 Speaker 1: The ice bucket is an all time classic. I think 2317 01:47:08,600 --> 01:47:09,960 Speaker 1: you might have this on. Have you seen the shit? 2318 01:47:10,040 --> 01:47:13,280 Speaker 1: I don't know, but the barricade breaks. This happened at 2319 01:47:13,280 --> 01:47:16,719 Speaker 1: fedexs Field when Jalen Hurts was walking through the quarterback 2320 01:47:16,760 --> 01:47:19,160 Speaker 1: for the Philadelphia Eagles, and I was like, dude, if 2321 01:47:19,200 --> 01:47:23,080 Speaker 1: your arena is in FedEx's field condition, your arena sucks 2322 01:47:23,080 --> 01:47:24,840 Speaker 1: the sweat off of dead man's balls. I'm just gonna 2323 01:47:24,840 --> 01:47:27,280 Speaker 1: be honest with you Canadians. That really is a terrible place. 2324 01:47:27,320 --> 01:47:30,519 Speaker 2: Remember in Philly also at Veterans Stadium that big Army 2325 01:47:30,600 --> 01:47:33,280 Speaker 2: Navy game when the thing collapsed and all those cadets 2326 01:47:33,280 --> 01:47:35,120 Speaker 2: piled on each other and all those people got injured. 2327 01:47:35,160 --> 01:47:38,000 Speaker 1: Luke, Yeah, dude, have you seen the soccer stadiums and 2328 01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:41,200 Speaker 1: like just the shittiest parts of South America? Just one 2329 01:47:41,280 --> 01:47:44,400 Speaker 1: collapses on. I saw a bullfighting ring collapse in Colombia 2330 01:47:44,400 --> 01:47:47,160 Speaker 1: and I was like, it's sad, but you know. 2331 01:47:47,439 --> 01:47:49,360 Speaker 2: Looke, what's the ice bucket thing they're referencing there. I 2332 01:47:49,400 --> 01:47:50,160 Speaker 2: feel like I should know that. 2333 01:47:50,200 --> 01:47:52,519 Speaker 1: What is that? When there was a while there where 2334 01:47:52,560 --> 01:47:55,080 Speaker 1: one time someone spilled a bucket of ice inside the 2335 01:47:55,120 --> 01:47:58,320 Speaker 1: cage and there was this three stooges skit that was 2336 01:47:58,360 --> 01:48:00,760 Speaker 1: required to get it cleared. And then some one made 2337 01:48:00,760 --> 01:48:04,519 Speaker 1: a made a account called spilled bag of ice and 2338 01:48:04,560 --> 01:48:05,599 Speaker 1: it has lived on. 2339 01:48:05,640 --> 01:48:08,080 Speaker 2: So okay, does this does this qualify? 2340 01:48:09,280 --> 01:48:14,960 Speaker 1: Just seen kish the old Asuerio Silva tick and had 2341 01:48:15,040 --> 01:48:17,360 Speaker 1: dump in his pants when she ished. 2342 01:48:17,280 --> 01:48:19,760 Speaker 2: And unfortunately, Luke, it came out like all over the 2343 01:48:19,760 --> 01:48:24,240 Speaker 2: octagon after she got submitted.

I don't want say so. It 2353 01:48:42,880 --> 01:48:44,920 Speaker 1: could have been like an elitics show, but it was 2354 01:48:45,000 --> 01:48:47,559 Speaker 1: something big enough where they had aired on TV and 2355 01:48:47,600 --> 01:48:50,280 Speaker 1: then uh fighters ran into the door and the door 2356 01:48:50,360 --> 01:48:52,200 Speaker 1: came open.

I mean it's a trash fight, 2842 02:11:12,640 --> 02:11:13,800 Speaker 2: but I think it's kind of perfect. 2843 02:11:13,880 --> 02:11:17,520 Speaker 1: I think it's an absolutely trash fight, but it may happen. Also, 2844 02:11:17,840 --> 02:11:20,800 Speaker 1: that thing he said about what he you got everything 2845 02:11:20,840 --> 02:11:22,880 Speaker 1: he wanted and everything he needed and what he needed. 2846 02:11:23,240 --> 02:11:26,640 Speaker 1: Funnily enough, that is what BC says after every MK show. 2847 02:11:26,880 --> 02:11:28,960 Speaker 1: Honestly that I was so weird for him to me 2848 02:11:29,040 --> 02:11:31,240 Speaker 1: to hear brot Er say it.

Adrian Broner has some of the 2856 02:11:47,840 --> 02:11:51,320 Speaker 1: most interesting social media posts and post fight or even 2857 02:11:51,360 --> 02:11:54,040 Speaker 1: pre fight comments. So for example, that one time he 2858 02:11:54,120 --> 02:11:59,800 Speaker 1: thanked abortion for existing for helping him moving on. Man, 2859 02:12:00,000 --> 02:12:02,600 Speaker 1: WHI his family planning.

Let's see this, it's 2865 02:12:21,880 --> 02:12:23,080 Speaker 2: about right right. 2866 02:12:23,200 --> 02:12:26,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a little mean, but a little fair, if 2867 02:12:26,880 --> 02:12:28,760 Speaker 1: I could be honest, Luke. 2868 02:12:29,120 --> 02:12:33,720 Speaker 2: Big moment last night, Sunday Night pay per view exhibition 2869 02:12:33,800 --> 02:12:37,880 Speaker 2: boxing forty six year old Floyd Mayweather against John Gotti 2870 02:12:38,040 --> 02:12:40,640 Speaker 2: the Third. I'm gonna set this up by saying Gotti 2871 02:12:40,880 --> 02:12:44,480 Speaker 2: was holding like crazy. Kenny Baylis warned him a million times. 2872 02:12:44,520 --> 02:12:46,920 Speaker 2: Finally Bayless had enough. Let's see what happened. 2873 02:12:53,360 --> 02:13:00,480 Speaker 1: Uh oh, good lord h oh, and then a seven 2874 02:13:00,560 --> 02:13:01,360 Speaker 1: thousand people. 2875 02:13:02,640 --> 02:13:03,560 Speaker 2: I mean there are more. 2876 02:13:03,760 --> 02:13:06,360 Speaker 1: There are more people in this ring than were attending 2877 02:13:06,360 --> 02:13:08,840 Speaker 1: Floyd's last fight with Aaron Chalmers. 2878 02:13:11,160 --> 02:13:14,760 Speaker 2: So, Luke, the fallout of this has been messy, to 2879 02:13:14,760 --> 02:13:18,000 Speaker 2: say the least. John Gotti the Third, by the way, 2880 02:13:18,000 --> 02:13:20,560 Speaker 2: there was a couple of altercations backstage between the two teams. 2881 02:13:20,680 --> 02:13:23,400 Speaker 2: John Gotty the Third put on Instagram that like this 2882 02:13:23,520 --> 02:13:26,000 Speaker 2: rivalry is never over, like we're enemies for life. So 2883 02:13:26,000 --> 02:13:28,160 Speaker 2: that's got people thinking, is this going beyond boxing. And 2884 02:13:28,160 --> 02:13:33,920 Speaker 2: then I believe Gotti's sister posted just abhorrent things about 2885 02:13:33,960 --> 02:13:36,720 Speaker 2: Floyd and his family that border on racism, and it 2886 02:13:36,920 --> 02:13:37,640 Speaker 2: just didn't. 2887 02:13:37,640 --> 02:13:42,680 Speaker 1: They didn't border on racism. They took a deep swim, yeah, 2888 02:13:42,720 --> 02:13:45,680 Speaker 1: well the oceans of racism and came out soaking wet. 2889 02:13:45,920 --> 02:13:48,480 Speaker 2: If this fight wasn't gross enough, the fall out, Luke, 2890 02:13:48,920 --> 02:13:50,760 Speaker 2: just you need a shower right away. 2891 02:13:50,760 --> 02:13:52,080 Speaker 1: I hope you know, I mean, but do so. Here's 2892 02:13:52,120 --> 02:13:54,560 Speaker 1: the thing, It's like, where was the where was this fight? Oh? 2893 02:13:54,560 --> 02:13:55,280 Speaker 1: It was in Florida. 2894 02:13:55,720 --> 02:13:58,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was at the highlight of frontin at the. 2895 02:13:58,000 --> 02:13:59,760 Speaker 1: Case, dude. I mean, listen, they fought at a high 2896 02:13:59,800 --> 02:14:02,840 Speaker 1: life arena in Florida in an exhibition about with a 2897 02:14:02,880 --> 02:14:05,800 Speaker 1: grandson of a gangster, and Floyd Mayweather whatever the fuck 2898 02:14:05,840 --> 02:14:08,240 Speaker 1: he's doing with his life at this point, like, there 2899 02:14:08,320 --> 02:14:11,200 Speaker 1: was no other way for this to go. This was 2900 02:14:11,240 --> 02:14:13,040 Speaker 1: the way that it had to go, This was the 2901 02:14:13,040 --> 02:14:16,760 Speaker 1: way it was inevitably all was going to go. I 2902 02:14:16,800 --> 02:14:20,480 Speaker 1: was thinking about this THEUGHBC. Seriously, if you count the 2903 02:14:20,560 --> 02:14:22,960 Speaker 1: money he made fighting Logan Paul, the answer is probably 2904 02:14:22,960 --> 02:14:24,080 Speaker 1: going to be a lot. But I think let's just 2905 02:14:24,120 --> 02:14:27,800 Speaker 1: for the sake of argument discount that how much money 2906 02:14:27,960 --> 02:14:31,080 Speaker 1: in just exhibitions has Floyd Mayweather made? So you could 2907 02:14:31,080 --> 02:14:34,520 Speaker 1: count the Tension Nascali fight and everything after that, but 2908 02:14:34,680 --> 02:14:35,520 Speaker 1: not counting. 2909 02:14:35,720 --> 02:14:38,839 Speaker 2: Again seven or eight of them, six or seven of them. 2910 02:14:38,680 --> 02:14:41,480 Speaker 1: Probably an average twenty thirty million. 2911 02:14:41,640 --> 02:14:44,040 Speaker 2: I would say, an average of five million per fight, right, 2912 02:14:44,280 --> 02:14:47,040 Speaker 2: because a stupid money for these. 2913 02:14:47,120 --> 02:14:49,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, he's probably he's probably close to thirty million dollars. 2914 02:14:49,600 --> 02:14:51,200 Speaker 1: And then again with the Logan Paul flight, which you 2915 02:14:51,240 --> 02:14:52,560 Speaker 1: did like a million pay per view buys. 2916 02:14:52,800 --> 02:14:55,520 Speaker 2: I mean, he claims he made three hundred million against Manny. 2917 02:14:55,560 --> 02:14:57,960 Speaker 2: I saw the one hundred million dollars guarantee check that 2918 02:14:58,000 --> 02:15:00,440 Speaker 2: he flashed at the press conference afterwards. It was legit. 2919 02:15:00,840 --> 02:15:05,000 Speaker 2: He made a reportedly one hundred guaranteed against McGregor, plus 2920 02:15:05,040 --> 02:15:07,360 Speaker 2: you know, pay per view extras. I mean, you would 2921 02:15:07,400 --> 02:15:09,160 Speaker 2: think he would never have to work again.
