I mean, I'm not saying an 70 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,840 Speaker 1: equal terms, you know, because God only knows what the 71 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,240 Speaker 1: Chinese did. I don't know, you don't know, but you 72 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,200 Speaker 1: know they didn't contain the virus. We'll put it that way. 73 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: And then, uh, Trump is just a complete fucking idiot 74 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 1: in every way imaginable, and so he sucked. And then 75 00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: you could say, well, who else is responsible? Buddy? I 76 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: have seen people when Trump lost the election. It was 77 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: like that scene in a Return of the Jedi in 78 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 1: the Indoor Moon, when all the fucking walks are celebrating. 79 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:12,040 Speaker 1: That's how it was around here.

Your boy didn't do that. 83 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: Your boy went straight home and kept to his own 84 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 1: fucking business. So everybody's to blame. BC. 85 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,800 Speaker 2: You're not an angel. You're a weird exhibitionist who lifts 86 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 2: weights on your front porch so that homeless folds can 87 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 2: come by and have their dreams fulfilled by looking at you. 88 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 2: I'm not sure your guy Biden's any better, though hopefully he. 89 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:39,680 Speaker 1: Can fix Oh he's a moron too. 90 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,000 Speaker 2: But where's Nader?

We broke it 129 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,840 Speaker 2: down on Wednesday. Saturday night's UFC Fight Night main event 130 00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:22,240 Speaker 2: from Las Vegas is going to give us the former 131 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: lightweight champion, Hafiel Do Sanchos, moving back down to one 132 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: five five first time in four years, and he won't 133 00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:33,240 Speaker 2: be facing Islam Makachev. He will be facing the damn 134 00:06:33,320 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: Red Dragon who has come to save all of our days. 135 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 2: Paul Felder, Luke, I don't know if you checked it out, 136 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,920 Speaker 2: but it did talk to our DA this week, and 137 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:44,919 Speaker 2: as much as the storyline here is certainly thank you, 138 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 2: Paul Felder. You may have improved the potential for this 139 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: to be a great fight. There may be more at 140 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: stake in this one. I don't think we're talking enough 141 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,800 Speaker 2: about what our DA is trying to do, Luke, Am 142 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: I wrong to remember that when he barely made wad 143 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 2: and got knocked out by any Alpharez in one round, 144 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:04,840 Speaker 2: he almost died trying to make that way. Four years later, 145 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:07,880 Speaker 2: age thirty six, he wants to do it again smart 146 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 2: not smart? What do you got for me? 147 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,000 Speaker 1: I don't know that. I want to call it not smart, 148 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 1: Like it's not like bj Penn trying to go back 149 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: out there and get some last blastic glory. I mean. 150 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 1: His last two fights were against Leon Edwards and Michael Kiessa, 151 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: who in the case of Edward's a top contender. In 152 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: the case of Kisa, you know, a big one seventy 153 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: are Obviously he was drained at one fifty five himself, 154 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 1: but this fight was at one seventy you know, sort 155 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: of a leaning on you top pressure guy in where 156 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: he has reinvented himself at one hundred and seventy pounds. 157 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: So it's like, okay, well that's on the end of 158 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 1: the world. You're obviously too small for it. He would 159 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 1: really benefit from one of those tweener weight classes, A 160 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: one sixty five I think would be really quite suitable 161 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 1: for him. So's it's not like you think he can't 162 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: win this. I mean, again, look at the odds. He's 163 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,240 Speaker 1: a slight favorite. Maybe you think he should be a 164 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: higher favorite because he's the one who's been training this 165 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: whole time and Feld has not. But then when you 166 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,520 Speaker 1: look at the numbers and will with him here in 167 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: just a minute, we see this fight is about as 168 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: even on paper as I've ever seen one. I mean, 169 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: it's shocking how much their stats all line up with 170 00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:11,200 Speaker 1: each other. So I'll tell you this much. When he 171 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: first came on the screen and you were interviewing him, 172 00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 1: he looked gaunt. I mean, he did not look good. 173 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: I still don't think that this cut to one fifty 174 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: five is optimal in any way. It's just if you 175 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:26,240 Speaker 1: have the burning desire that this guy does, and he 176 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: is a competitive bastard through and through. You're just not 177 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 1: ready to let go of your dreams yet. And you 178 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: and and and can I say that he can't win 179 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: on Saturday? No, I can't. I can't. I don't love it, 180 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 1: but I don't hate. 181 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 2: It when he comes on on our show, which he did, 182 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,440 Speaker 2: and say, you know I got another run left in me. 183 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 2: You're gonna see me as the lightweight champion of the 184 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: world again. You're thirty six, you've lost for four or five. 185 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: It's easy for us, Luke to go, yeah, whatever, bro, 186 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:55,080 Speaker 2: But Luke, can we give our Da the love he deserves? 187 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 2: And I'm glad so many people that watch that video 188 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 2: did in the comments section. Our Da has one of 189 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:03,040 Speaker 2: this ni great resumes of this era that doesn't get 190 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,439 Speaker 2: the love and respect. And it's not just for the wins. 191 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 2: And if you if you couple together all those wins, 192 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 2: it's a very impressive run. It's for everybody he lost 193 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 2: to as well everybody he fought. He's always facing the 194 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 2: very best. He always comes to fight. He's a tough 195 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 2: as nails bastard who's completely well rounded. And when he 196 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 2: says I can do this, I can cut down to 197 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,719 Speaker 2: one fifty five. He maybe the only guy I can 198 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 2: believe where I'm not gonna fear for his life and 199 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 2: health now, Luke, the specifics of what our DA is 200 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 2: saying is when he used to cut down to fifty 201 00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,480 Speaker 2: five four years ago, he'd walk around at one ninety 202 00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 2: six before cutting down to one fifty five. He says, 203 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 2: through a complete recommitment this calendar year to nutrition, he's 204 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:44,960 Speaker 2: walking around more at one seventy six one seventy two. 205 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:48,080 Speaker 2: So you're cutting that down about twenty pounds for the cut. 206 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 2: If we can believe that, that's fine. But I really 207 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 2: got a smell of some Rocky four in Moscow, old 208 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,280 Speaker 2: school bare bones training camp here for a guy who 209 00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 2: after he lost in January to U Michael Kisa. As 210 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 2: you mentioned, look, he basically started training camp the next day. 211 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:07,200 Speaker 2: We're about eight months into this RDA camp, and three 212 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 2: of those months were in bare bones conditions in his 213 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,520 Speaker 2: native Brazil, going down to the favelas, running up the 214 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:16,520 Speaker 2: mountain with the young fighters who are hoping to you know, 215 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 2: sniff a dream that he has fulfilled if he's gonna 216 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,320 Speaker 2: do this, which is an uphill climb at late in 217 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 2: your career to cut back down in wait and still 218 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:28,640 Speaker 2: face the best and still proclaim that I got enough 219 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 2: left in the tank to make a title run. It 220 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 2: seems that he's doing it the right way, Luke. It 221 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,040 Speaker 2: seems that when you hear him talk, he's doing it 222 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 2: for the right reasons, providing for his family. Again, if 223 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:40,080 Speaker 2: anybody can have anything left and pour it out in 224 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 2: the cage on Saturday, I'm not gonna count this fella 225 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 2: out because skill for skill, stats for stat they're pretty 226 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,520 Speaker 2: even at this point, and certainly both have questions. You know, 227 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 2: not to mention feld on a couple of days. Notice here, 228 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,120 Speaker 2: even though he's in great physical shape, but skill for skill, 229 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:57,480 Speaker 2: I still love ourda in this matchup, Luke, So there's 230 00:10:57,480 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 2: no reason he can't do this. 231 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 1: Getting back to your point of his resume, let's just 232 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,719 Speaker 1: quickly go through it. Since twenty fourteen. I mean, you 233 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,040 Speaker 1: can look at the totality of it, But since twenty fourteen, 234 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,679 Speaker 1: who has this guy fought? Well? Understand? Has been a 235 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,480 Speaker 1: one to fifty five and one seventy at the time. 236 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 1: Foresuore the two most competitive divisions in the sport. Listen 237 00:11:15,480 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: to this, and these are not all wins. In fact, 238 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: a lot of these are losses, but listen to who 239 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,160 Speaker 1: this guy has faced since twenty fourteen. Number come made 240 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: off Jason High, Benson Henderson, Nate Diaz, Anthony Pettis, Donald Cerroni, 241 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:31,200 Speaker 1: Eddie Alvarez, Tony Ferguson, Tarak Saffaden, Neil Magni, Robbi Lawler, 242 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 1: the last three by the which he won at one seventy, 243 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 1: Colby Covington, Kamara Usman, Kevin Lee, Leon Edwards, and Michael Kiyassa. 244 00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: I mean, you want to talk about a guy who 245 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: has been in the trenches against the very best his 246 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: generation had to offer, and he didn't win them all. 247 00:11:45,400 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: How could you when you're finding all of those guys 248 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: all the time. It is a testament to the kind 249 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: of character he has now as it relates to the 250 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 1: actual matchup itself. BC I went through and looked at 251 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,760 Speaker 1: the numbers on this the only real clear difference between 252 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: them because by the way, they're about the age themselves. 253 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: One was born in October. One was born in April 254 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: of nineteen eighty four, but the same year is the height. 255 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 1: Paul Felder about five eleven, Huffel Desangdres about five to eight. 256 00:12:11,120 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: But their average fight time about thirteen minutes. Apiece strikes 257 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,640 Speaker 1: landed per minute about three and a half accuracy about 258 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 1: forty five percent. Strike's absorbed a little bit more for 259 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: Paul Felder in that count, but still they're both pretty 260 00:12:22,920 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: about even on that one. Striking defense a little bit 261 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:27,640 Speaker 1: of a different forty nine percent to Huffa Desires is 262 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:32,160 Speaker 1: sixty two percent. Take down accuracy about thirty percent, takedown 263 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 1: defense about sixty percent. The other difference here is you 264 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 1: have takedown per fifteen minutes. Hulfel Designs goes for nearly two. 265 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,559 Speaker 1: So this really is your difference here. I think he's 266 00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,800 Speaker 1: gonna make Paul Felder work a little bit right, Go 267 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:47,480 Speaker 1: for those takedowns, clinch up with him, try and use 268 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 1: whatever you can to drain this guy, because how ready 269 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 1: is he? Blah blah blah blah blah, And you've got 270 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,720 Speaker 1: to be in the phenomenal shape. So I'm expecting a 271 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: tough fight that goes several rounds. I do still lean 272 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:01,160 Speaker 1: towards RDA for all the reasons afforementioned, but Paul Felder 273 00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,839 Speaker 1: is about as live a dog in this contest as 274 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:04,720 Speaker 1: you're ever gonna find. 275 00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:07,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's stay with Felder here, for a second. We 276 00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 2: know about the whole save the card. It's great, you know, 277 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 2: and then it's probably a more fun matchup. There's more 278 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 2: reward for RDA. But the whole idea of the chance 279 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 2: that Paul Felder's taking, not the risk, Luke, the chance 280 00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:22,120 Speaker 2: meaning he's gonna do this on just a couple of days. Notice, Yes, 281 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 2: he's in triathlon shape, so the weight cutting didn't seem 282 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,080 Speaker 2: to be an issue. I don't get in the cage, Luke. 283 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 2: You've rolled a few times. Is there anything to be 284 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,400 Speaker 2: fearful of? Yeah, he might be in the shape, but 285 00:13:34,440 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 2: he is he in the contact preparation physical and mental 286 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 2: shape he needs to be for a fight this big. 287 00:13:41,440 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about that either. The only thing that 288 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: I would be worried about if I was in his 289 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: corner is do we have a good enough of a 290 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 1: strategic plan. I mean, the good news is with RDA, 291 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 1: you got a lot of tape on the guy. You 292 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: kind of know what he's got at this point. There's 293 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,200 Speaker 1: not a whole lot of secrets. I mean, you know, 294 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:01,560 Speaker 1: he can switch some thing up here or tweak some 295 00:14:01,600 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: things there, but he more or less is he is 296 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: at thirty six years of age, So that's good. But 297 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,040 Speaker 1: did you have the right approach and if that approach 298 00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:12,319 Speaker 1: was not correct, do you have a good plan B 299 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: to go to there? That would be my only concern 300 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:17,600 Speaker 1: because you look at a guy like Paul Felder. He's 301 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,800 Speaker 1: got the Charles Olivera fight. Maybe his best fight was 302 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: he he told me he was not supposed to go 303 00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:25,520 Speaker 1: into Olivera's guard. He just did anyway, and he smashed 304 00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: him out. So he can't improvise, and he can do 305 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 1: it quite well. However, I think the general resume he 306 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 1: has and the successes he's had speaks to did you 307 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 1: have the right game plan and did you stick to it? 308 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 1: He's a little bit more of that kind of a fighter. 309 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 1: That would be my only concern here because you know RDA, 310 00:14:43,960 --> 00:14:46,120 Speaker 1: even with a switch, has got a lot of different 311 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: gears to go to to prep. I don't know if 312 00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:51,560 Speaker 1: Paul Felder's in that same space. That's my only concern. 313 00:14:52,680 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 2: Very interesting stuff. Eileen Ourda as well, Luke. I think 314 00:14:56,560 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 2: it's going to be all action. I think he could 315 00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 2: stop Paul Felder late or if he relies on the 316 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,840 Speaker 2: wrestling at times to kind of hopefully guess Felder out 317 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:07,560 Speaker 2: and it makes a little bit of a war. Feler 318 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 2: loves getting du a war, maybe sometimes not for his 319 00:15:10,080 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 2: own good Luke, so this could be interesting. Obviously, all 320 00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 2: of this good RDA nature only happens and matters if 321 00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 2: he can make the weight today and feel comfortable and 322 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,480 Speaker 2: look good there. But obviously, you know, in a smaller 323 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 2: weight class, you'd think physically he'll have some more advantages 324 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 2: that he didn't have at walter weight, although he started 325 00:15:26,240 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 2: off pretty hot there, Luke, anything else in this card 326 00:15:28,280 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 2: that pops you, It's okay, it's okay, Luke. What should 327 00:15:31,680 --> 00:15:32,200 Speaker 2: I care about? 328 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 1: Well, one last thing on this, if I may, is 329 00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: that the chin issue for RDA. I don't think he 330 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: has a bad chin, but at one fifty five, I 331 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,480 Speaker 1: don't know how it's going to look. I mean, yes, 332 00:15:43,520 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: he's cutting less weight, so that should be better, I guess. 333 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: But that's the thing I'm gonna pay attention to. Plus, 334 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,600 Speaker 1: Paul Felder kind of hits hard. He's got good left 335 00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: hooks that they exchange in the pocket. You know, he 336 00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: saw what he did to Dan Hooker's face, swelling it 337 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: up that way. That could be a bit of an 338 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 1: X factor. Too. Terms of the rest of the card, 339 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 1: the return of Julian Marquez is interesting. Kay Hanson, I 340 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: think is a prospect that women's strawweight who's worth paying 341 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: attention to. And then I think it's on this card. 342 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: The Brendan Allen Sean Strickland fight there was supposed to 343 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 1: be a different one. Brendan Allen's opponent fell out. He 344 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: is a he looks to be like a very very 345 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: top prospect, so seeing what he can do is always 346 00:16:19,280 --> 00:16:20,240 Speaker 1: going to be interesting as well. 347 00:16:20,520 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that'll be the prelim main event. Should be interesting. 348 00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 2: Yea boy, Eric Anders, I'm always down for that. But yeah, 349 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 2: I want to see Kay Hanson, just twenty one years old, 350 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 2: looked really good in that UFC debut coming off of 351 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 2: the Invictor runch. Will be in there against Corey McKenna, 352 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 2: who I believe identifies as female. So that should be 353 00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 2: a good fight. Luke, that'd be interesting, all right, Luke, 354 00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,760 Speaker 2: let's keep it going the show here a little bit 355 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 2: of an update on all things Atta Sonia Bla Howitz 356 00:16:47,440 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: and the idea. Will UFC go in this direction taking 357 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,640 Speaker 2: their middleway champion, allowing him to enter potential champ champ 358 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 2: territory here against the newly crowned light heavyweight king Yon 359 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: Bloowitz Adasania says he has no desigre Luke to stay 360 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 2: at two hundred five pounds, and here's let's stay right there. 361 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:08,159 Speaker 2: I think you would only make this fight against Blohoetes, obviously, 362 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,800 Speaker 2: because you don't want somebody to win your belt in 363 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 2: GSP and just give it back. 364 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:12,159 Speaker 1: You know. 365 00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,359 Speaker 2: I assumed this is where he was going, Luke, not 366 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:17,240 Speaker 2: just in the direction of a John Jones super fight, 367 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,880 Speaker 2: but the whole idea of I just ran the gauntlet 368 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 2: at middle eight. What else would I have to prove 369 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 2: outside of a big money Whittaker rematch, which personally I'm 370 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 2: of course in on. I thought it would have been 371 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: time to go up to two o five and sort 372 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 2: of retest the waters on the idea of becoming a 373 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,600 Speaker 2: heavyweight again. He's talked a big game. It seemed like 374 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 2: time to back it up. What do you make of 375 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 2: the of these comments saying no desire to stay there? 376 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 1: I mean, is it not totally plausible that he could 377 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 1: go to two oh five win the belt, decide I 378 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:50,120 Speaker 1: don't want to do this anymore either, Go fight John 379 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:53,719 Speaker 1: Jones at heavyweight or back down to five or whatever, 380 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: and then they now have to have Blakhovich and somebody 381 00:17:56,920 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 1: else fight for Ortiego Santos and somebody else or not 382 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: Teko sauts Are you glover to share? But you know, 383 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: is there a conceivable scenario where within short order Blhovich 384 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 1: goes and recaptures the belt again? I mean that seems 385 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: very very possible to me, which sounds like a disaster. 386 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 1: You know. I understand the UFC wanted to give a 387 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: guy like Adasania Champ champ status if he can, if 388 00:18:17,040 --> 00:18:19,040 Speaker 1: he can find a way to take advantage of the opportunity. 389 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:23,159 Speaker 1: I understand how fun it might be for him to 390 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:27,040 Speaker 1: see or to watch him in you know, unusual fights 391 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:29,760 Speaker 1: outside of his normal weight class. But I don't know. Man, 392 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:31,919 Speaker 1: If your plan is to just have the guy go 393 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 1: up once and if he gets it, give it right back, 394 00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:37,879 Speaker 1: you know you're doing damage to a division that already 395 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:41,159 Speaker 1: needs a lot of help in terms of rebuilding. That is, 396 00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 1: in terms of what the division needs. B see the 397 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:46,840 Speaker 1: opposite of what it's looking for. Don't I don't love that, 398 00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:48,880 Speaker 1: to be candid with you. 399 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 2: No, I don't. I mean, look this whole development here 400 00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 2: seems like it could very much open the door for 401 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: your dream front yard weightlifting partner, the great old man 402 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 2: Glover t Schera to slide in there. We are thank 403 00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 2: earlier this week that I did that it was the 404 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 2: fight to make. Right now, it seems like it is 405 00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 2: because Uh, if that's Easy's way of thinking, then keep 406 00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,159 Speaker 2: them keep him at the middle. Wait, let's do the 407 00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 2: Whittaker rematch, or let's build to the one off against 408 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 2: John to capitalize on the Twitter beef knowing that John's 409 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 2: eventually going to go north to heavyweight. Uh, I think 410 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 2: that's where we end up here. Glover has come out 411 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,240 Speaker 2: and said he thinks he will get the next title shot. 412 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 2: I still think Dana's comments last Saturday, Luke afterwards saying, 413 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:29,119 Speaker 2: you know, how does he not deserve it is essentially 414 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 2: what Dana said. I mean, you're the guy making that decision, Dana, 415 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:33,959 Speaker 2: So if you're saying that, that certainly means you were 416 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,159 Speaker 2: potentially leaning back in that direction. It just seems like 417 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 2: it makes sense. Luke. You also have jamblohowits saying I'm 418 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 2: open to fighting whoever they pick, whether it's Glover or Izzy, 419 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 2: and let's do it in March. Uh, if we go 420 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:51,199 Speaker 2: the direction of Glover next, where does Izzy go? In 421 00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 2: your mind? Does he go Whitticker? Does he go John Jones? 422 00:19:58,160 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 1: I like the I like the Jones fight even if 423 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: it's non title. To me, it doesn't really matter. But 424 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,680 Speaker 1: for the UFC, I mean, do you make that fight 425 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: with no belt? It just seems like that you just 426 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't do. I mean, here's the thing. It's almost like 427 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 1: someone was asking me in the live chat yesterday, shouldn't 428 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,919 Speaker 1: the UFC have a set of belts that have nothing 429 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: to do with the weight class and then the corresponding space, so, 430 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: in other words, no weight class belt and then no 431 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: interim belt. And I said, yes, they already did that, 432 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: which was the BMF belt. But you know, would you 433 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:33,920 Speaker 1: want to proliferate that because you know the fight itself 434 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: between Jones and Izzy. The belt doesn't make it what 435 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,879 Speaker 1: it is or what it would be, or it has 436 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,159 Speaker 1: nothing to do with it. But could you reasonably sell it? 437 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: Would you want to sell it as something where it 438 00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: was a non title affair. I mean, maybe you could 439 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 1: do that. I suppose it'd be a thing. So listen, 440 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: I wouldn't mind seeing the Whitaker rematch. I think the 441 00:20:50,800 --> 00:20:53,440 Speaker 1: Witaker rematch would be a lot closer than the first one. 442 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:56,120 Speaker 1: I'd still favorite Otisignia to win, But dude, Whittaker has 443 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:59,720 Speaker 1: looked fucking great and people need to acknowledge that. At 444 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: the same time, it just feels like all the momentum 445 00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,199 Speaker 1: is in the other direction. But with a bit of 446 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 1: you know, a comp seat of complicating factors we see 447 00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,560 Speaker 1: and how they square that circle will be really interesting 448 00:21:09,600 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: to see. 449 00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:14,840 Speaker 2: I don't know, Luke, what else could happen between Izzy 450 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 2: and John for this fight to be more perfect? To 451 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:19,440 Speaker 2: do it right now? 452 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:19,879 Speaker 1: Like? 453 00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:21,199 Speaker 2: What else do they have to do? They have to 454 00:21:21,200 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 2: fight in public? 455 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:22,720 Speaker 1: Like what you know? 456 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 2: Like I don't understand waiting the window is there? Where 457 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: is he's about to burst through as a potential star. 458 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:31,359 Speaker 2: John hasn't yet moved up to heavy, but has already 459 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:34,200 Speaker 2: given up the belt. Why do you need a title 460 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,000 Speaker 2: when it's a super fight? I mean, look, it sounded 461 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: like in your voice there you were almost teasing back, 462 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 2: you know, because yesterday was oh, by the way, the 463 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 2: what twenty seventh anniversary of UFC one in Denver, nineteen 464 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 2: ninety three. I'd almost felt like you wanted to bring 465 00:21:47,880 --> 00:21:50,240 Speaker 2: back the super fight title there that Ken Shamrock had. 466 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,160 Speaker 2: I mean, like you why need it? You don't need it. 467 00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:55,440 Speaker 2: It's a super fight. It would tell us a lot. 468 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:58,720 Speaker 2: There's almost more at stake in the potential passing of 469 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,880 Speaker 2: the baton in terms of and the fact that even 470 00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 2: you know, if you want to build it that way, 471 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 2: build it that way. Excuse me. With Habib exiting the sport, 472 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,480 Speaker 2: this could be a fight to determine the current pound 473 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,199 Speaker 2: for pound king. I mean, it really would be. So 474 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 2: I don't think you need it. But here's the deal, UFC. 475 00:22:16,280 --> 00:22:18,480 Speaker 2: If you're not gonna do the John Izzy fight next, 476 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 2: and when are you? If is he isn't talking about 477 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 2: hanging around at two a five. So it's either you 478 00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: want to do it now and you want to get 479 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:28,560 Speaker 2: from it what you potentially could as an organization, or 480 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:30,320 Speaker 2: you know, you're gonna have to hope they can collide 481 00:22:30,359 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 2: down the road a heavyweight or something one day. So 482 00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:34,720 Speaker 2: you know, should or get off the pod and let's 483 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 2: figure this thing out Luke altogether, right, I. 484 00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: Mean, here's what I think UFC is up against. If 485 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,560 Speaker 1: you look at the scenario, this should not be complicated. 486 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,480 Speaker 1: Is he has a top contender and Robert Whittaker and 487 00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 1: Bill Hoovich has a top contender and Glover to Shia. Right, 488 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:50,679 Speaker 1: those are the fights that you should basically make. But 489 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: here is the problem that UFC has to sort of 490 00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: figure out what they want to do. John wants to 491 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,800 Speaker 1: go to heavyweight. Now I think that depending on who 492 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: they give them foregone conclusion that he wins as strong 493 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: but there's a good possibility that he wins. Here's the problem. 494 00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,120 Speaker 1: What if he goes to heavyweight and doesn't in fact, 495 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 1: But if he goes to heavyweight and just gets bodied 496 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,919 Speaker 1: by somebody, whether it's Francis or Stepe or you know, 497 00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: whatever the case ends up being, is that Yeah, is 498 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 1: that I don't know about that? But is that a 499 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 1: thing that you want to do? Because now, if he 500 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,760 Speaker 1: goes up there and does that, yes, John could always 501 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 1: come back to two of five and you could make 502 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 1: it there. But part of the appeal of what Adasanna 503 00:23:26,920 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: represents is not just rivalry with Jones. It's that somebody 504 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: finally came around that not beat him at his own game, 505 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: but eclips him in time and space. Right, finally found 506 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: him at the moment where he was just weak enough, 507 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,520 Speaker 1: and you were just strong enough and it wasn't so 508 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,680 Speaker 1: much a weight class issue. In fact is he would 509 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,840 Speaker 1: be moving up, but John would not have any claim about, 510 00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:50,439 Speaker 1: you know, having to make any kind of adjustment in 511 00:23:50,480 --> 00:23:52,879 Speaker 1: that regard. You would lose that a little bit. And 512 00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,439 Speaker 1: so I don't know what they want to do about that. 513 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: I don't know how you solve that problem, but I 514 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:58,960 Speaker 1: think that's what they're up against. But again, lastly, just 515 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: on those weight classes, dude five and two of five, 516 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,400 Speaker 1: they've got top contenders. Those are easy fights to make. 517 00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 1: What will they do? I mean, your guess is as 518 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:07,120 Speaker 1: good as mine. 519 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: All right, Hey, let's go to Thursday night. That was 520 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 2: last night Luke Bellator twoint fifty two from the Mohegan Sun, 521 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 2: and we said, coming in sneaky, great card, especially they 522 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:18,840 Speaker 2: went with a three fight main card. All three were 523 00:24:18,880 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 2: really good matchups. All three delivered in terms of entertainment. 524 00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:26,600 Speaker 2: In your main event. Featherweight champion Patricio Pitbull defending and 525 00:24:26,800 --> 00:24:29,520 Speaker 2: advancing to the semi finals of this Grand Prix with 526 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 2: a first round finish against a bold Pedro Carvo, Luke 527 00:24:35,840 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 2: I tried to talk up the Portuguese man's chances coming 528 00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,200 Speaker 2: in just from the standpoint that he was super confident 529 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:44,119 Speaker 2: and he felt he had an angle to do this. 530 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 2: The betting odds were telling me to shut the hell up. 531 00:24:47,040 --> 00:24:49,920 Speaker 2: They were right, Luke Pitbull is all we say. 532 00:24:49,960 --> 00:24:50,360 Speaker 1: He is. 533 00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 2: Everything he touched Carvio with seems to do damage. How 534 00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 2: impressed are you by once again seeing this guy win? 535 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 2: But also nineteen the bell toor Cage, that's a new 536 00:25:01,880 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 2: promotional record. 537 00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 1: He is, He's something special. It's not like Patrick Carvoglio 538 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 1: was the toughest test he'd ever faced. Like, That's not. 539 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: What makes it special is that the guy was off 540 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: for a while. You wonder when the decline might sort happening, 541 00:25:14,840 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: because by the way he's been in some wars, I mean, 542 00:25:17,119 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: as dominant as he's been of late. You know, even 543 00:25:19,840 --> 00:25:22,639 Speaker 1: the Daniel Weischel fight I was there for that. Vaishel 544 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,800 Speaker 1: was putting an honor before he got flatlined. And then 545 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: the fights with Daniel Strauss were difficult. Like he's had 546 00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: you know, his body has been pushed in a number 547 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: of different ways, and so you want to see exactly 548 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 1: what he's got left to do. He is better than ever. 549 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,080 Speaker 1: He is in total command of what he's up against. 550 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 1: Because remember it wasn't just that he knocked Patrick Carvolio out. 551 00:25:42,400 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: He nearly submitted him on the ground to you know, 552 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,159 Speaker 1: almost snatching up a guillotine. I mean, he just he 553 00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,919 Speaker 1: beat this guy everywhere he wanted to and it was 554 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 1: not even close. And if your Patricio pitpolt I made 555 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 1: this point on CBS Sports HQ last night, you have 556 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: to love this because the fight got delayed, so you 557 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 1: came back to an opponent who was totally over matched, 558 00:26:00,800 --> 00:26:03,000 Speaker 1: and now you're heading into a rematch with a much 559 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 1: improved Emmanuel Sanchez, who they both fought each other four 560 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: fights ago. At this point, you know you need to 561 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,320 Speaker 1: be ready for that guy. This was the best I mean, 562 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:12,720 Speaker 1: you know it was it a tune up fight in 563 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 1: the traditional sense, no, but it ended up serving a 564 00:26:15,680 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 1: bit of that role BC and getting him ready. But 565 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 1: Gisio Pitbull, you know how good is he in terms 566 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 1: of the best featherweights on Earth? I don't know. I 567 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 1: think probably top three, maybe even a little bit higher 568 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:28,840 Speaker 1: than that. But just watching a guy like this do work, 569 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:32,000 Speaker 1: best fighter in Bellatore history, getting better over time and 570 00:26:32,040 --> 00:26:35,880 Speaker 1: then using this particular opportunity to get right back into 571 00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:38,119 Speaker 1: the swing of things after a bit of a covid hiatus. 572 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: It's a great place to be if you're a bellat 573 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 1: or to see you this guy continuing to do what 574 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:43,040 Speaker 1: he does. 575 00:26:43,480 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he had called out Carvajo during that selection show, 576 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 2: which I thought was pretty cool when Belatur allowed sort 577 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:51,359 Speaker 2: of the the higher ranked people in this tournament to 578 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 2: come out and pick their opponents. He wanted to be 579 00:26:53,560 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 2: on this side of the bracket. He wanted him Luke. 580 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: I think that the any form of a beef between the 581 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 2: Pitbull brothers and SB just got back muted there with 582 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,880 Speaker 2: this type of performance, because yes, four of the five previous 583 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 2: pit bull opponents did go the distance against him. You 584 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:12,639 Speaker 2: wonder if some of the things Carvio was talking about 585 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,480 Speaker 2: could be true. No, they weren't. This was this fight 586 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 2: looked like a mismatch and how it played out. Piple 587 00:27:18,119 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 2: absolutely dominated every second and Luke on the same side 588 00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:24,959 Speaker 2: of the bracket. On Thursday night, we of course saw 589 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:29,720 Speaker 2: Emmanuel Sanchez defeat Daniel Vichel by unanimous decision, and their 590 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 2: rematch from four years ago. You saw just how much 591 00:27:33,040 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 2: Emmanuel Sanchez has improved in the Duke Rufus camp. There 592 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:41,639 Speaker 2: in Milwaukee. I'm sorry Wisconsin and Luke. This is gonna 593 00:27:41,640 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 2: set up for a rematch between the two of them, Pitple, 594 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 2: who already defeated Sanchez. Let's stay in this fight for 595 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: a second. I saw an Emmanuel Sanchez with a friggin 596 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:54,560 Speaker 2: motor Luke who was just coming at Vichel. Now Vichel 597 00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 2: as a veteran. He showed a tremendous chin and will 598 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,400 Speaker 2: to hang in there and try to have moments even 599 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 2: when he was getting dominated in that third round, He's 600 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 2: still firing back, but Emmanuel Sanchez is just chopping him 601 00:28:05,280 --> 00:28:07,680 Speaker 2: down to the legs, going hard to the body, big 602 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:12,200 Speaker 2: combinations on him every single second. Did you see enough 603 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 2: from Sanchez right here to greatly improve his chances in 604 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:17,720 Speaker 2: a rematch against Pitbull? 605 00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 1: Yes, yes I did. I still think he's got a 606 00:28:21,480 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: bit of a fatal flaw and that he's too hittable. 607 00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: I mean, even in these highlights, he's getting the better 608 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 1: of these exchanges. But you see him marching down on 609 00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:32,639 Speaker 1: Vishal taking shots to get in range. You know you 610 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: do that against Patucio pit Bull, you're gonna end up 611 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: looking at the lights dud enough times, right, So he's 612 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 1: a viceal is not the power puncher or the accuracy 613 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 1: the accurate puncher that Patucio Pitbull is. However, to your 614 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: point about Emmanuel Sanchez, Wow, you know the he still 615 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 1: has well, I would say has two fatal flaws. One 616 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,120 Speaker 1: it gets in a little bit too. He's not exactly 617 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: the best finisher, but the way in which he was 618 00:28:56,280 --> 00:29:01,360 Speaker 1: able to get pretty goddamn close against a super top experienced, 619 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 1: talented veteran La Daniel Weischel was incredible to me. I 620 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:08,360 Speaker 1: mean that second round was ten eight easy, almost ten 621 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:11,480 Speaker 1: to seven, not quite, but getting into that territory, I mean, 622 00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:14,840 Speaker 1: he absolutely put it on him. The accuracy of his 623 00:29:14,840 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: strikes have gotten better, his overall physicality has gotten better, right, 624 00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: not just with his punching power, but the intensity of 625 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: his wrestling. He was always good at being an everyman. 626 00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 1: He could do every job pretty well. But now he 627 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: has up the danger, he has up the intensity, he 628 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:33,719 Speaker 1: has up the physicality, and he's up the precision of 629 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,880 Speaker 1: what he's trying to do. Still think he's got some 630 00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:38,280 Speaker 1: defensive issues that might cost him against pit Bull. So 631 00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:40,840 Speaker 1: I'm gonna favor the best fighter in beltar history over him, 632 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:43,560 Speaker 1: But this is a I'll say it. I didn't think 633 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:45,880 Speaker 1: the fight for Carvolio was this way at all. He 634 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 1: was a very winnable fight for Emmanuel Sanchez. He can 635 00:29:48,600 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 1: absolutely get this done. And if he can find a 636 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: way BC to weaponize his cardio in the way that 637 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 1: he has so he makes Pitbull work, dude, look out. 638 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: He could do something spectacular. 639 00:29:59,400 --> 00:30:03,480 Speaker 2: I mean, he was in Vichel's face for a long stretches, Luke, 640 00:30:03,880 --> 00:30:06,840 Speaker 2: just variety of flurries of all different kinds of strikes, 641 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 2: and I think the best thing he showed was anytime 642 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 2: Vichel landed, and he did. You're right, Sanchez can get hit. 643 00:30:12,480 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 2: Sanch just walking right through that stuff like it wasn't 644 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 2: even there. So he's in a peak moment in his career. 645 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 2: The determination, the belief in himself, the variety of strikes. 646 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 2: As I mentioned, this should be fun. And I got 647 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,200 Speaker 2: to shout out this tournament here, Luke. This featherweight one, 648 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 2: which which was double the size of the previous two 649 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: recent Grand Prix we'd seen from Bellatour, certainly did not 650 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,120 Speaker 2: have the sex factor of the welterweight one, which had 651 00:30:36,280 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 2: some of the best fighters in the world, with Lima, 652 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 2: with Rory, with the idea that we didn't know how 653 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:42,760 Speaker 2: good MVP was and he was going to be in that. 654 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:45,600 Speaker 2: And then obviously the heavyweight one, which was a nice 655 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:48,960 Speaker 2: mix Luke of old expired food that that just tastes 656 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,760 Speaker 2: so good and you know, potentially an opening for somebody 657 00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 2: like Ryan Vader to do exactly what he did. This 658 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 2: featherweight one didn't really have a face to it outside 659 00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: of like, okay, Pipule's in it and he's got to 660 00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: defend the title. And oh, by the way, Luke, let's 661 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 2: let's just stay here for a second. Belatour, don't make 662 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:07,200 Speaker 2: it easy. I'm the champion. I mean, your pit bull, 663 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:10,160 Speaker 2: you gotta go five rounds every single time, and every 664 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:13,560 Speaker 2: fight that you're in, it's the title fight. It's the 665 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 2: it's it's the championship final for whoever you're facing, right, 666 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 2: you know, it's almost more you know, it is more 667 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:22,080 Speaker 2: important than the tournament, you know. I mean, if carv 668 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,280 Speaker 2: Io wins Thursday night, screw the rest of the tournament. 669 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,760 Speaker 2: He just became champion. Now, look, I know how it works. 670 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:29,560 Speaker 2: He'd have to keep moving on and defending. But you 671 00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,360 Speaker 2: get my point there. I think that what has happened 672 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 2: here and how this has played out is perfect. These 673 00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:36,840 Speaker 2: final two matchups, which of course will be pit Bull 674 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 2: and Sanchez in the rematch as we just laid out, 675 00:31:39,600 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 2: and AJ McKee against Darian Caldwell on the other side. Luke, 676 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,760 Speaker 2: this damn good. This is This is about as good 677 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: as you could hope for if you're belatour and if 678 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 2: we end up Luke, and who knows if both will 679 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:53,560 Speaker 2: make it, But if we end up with Caldwell and 680 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 2: pit Bull, I'm here, I'm getting buckled in, Luke, give 681 00:31:58,200 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 2: me that, give. 682 00:31:59,080 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: It to me or even McKee. Don't look past McKee 683 00:32:01,760 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 1: and yeah, yeah, there's a lot of different ways you 684 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:07,720 Speaker 1: can go. I mean, bellatore overall, and this is not 685 00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:10,160 Speaker 1: some kind of revelation, but it clearly does not have 686 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 1: the quality UFC does, and it's not especially close. However, 687 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,080 Speaker 1: what they have is in certain situations they have very fun, 688 00:32:17,360 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 1: very competitive, very talented divisions. Welterweight, I think, is one 689 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 1: that's in the rebuilding process. We're not pub don't have 690 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: time talk about it, but the rslav Amazov and Logan 691 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,640 Speaker 1: Storly fight was just sensational last night in proof of 692 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 1: that generation of Walterwitz. Okay, well, I'm saying it's proof 693 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 1: of that, like that welterweight division that they're they're putting 694 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 1: together and the youth movement they have there is just sensational. 695 00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: And then at welterweight bantam way too by the way 696 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 1: for bell toour but excuse me, featherweight. You know you 697 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,320 Speaker 1: can see that they just have so much talent to 698 00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:50,280 Speaker 1: work with. It'd be a shame to not showcase it. 699 00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,680 Speaker 1: And what better way to get folks to understand who 700 00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:55,080 Speaker 1: the dominant and interesting players are than to make some 701 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: kind of a tournament. Now, the COVID thing disrupted it. 702 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,760 Speaker 1: It lost a lot of momentum as a consequence. But 703 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,960 Speaker 1: to the point you're making BC, I mean, you look 704 00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: at these fights last night, dude. That Beltore card was awesome. 705 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,600 Speaker 1: Like Beltimore's had a bunch of duds since the return 706 00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: of the pandemic, Like there's shows. 707 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 2: That we're not hiding from that, we're not chilling out 708 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,000 Speaker 2: for that. Okay, here's what I'm saying. 709 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 1: Listen, some of that's their faults, some of it's not. 710 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: You know, what are you gonna do? In UFC's had 711 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,160 Speaker 1: some duds. UC's had some good shows too, Although UC's 712 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:22,880 Speaker 1: had a really good pandemic run. But here's my point. 713 00:33:22,920 --> 00:33:25,040 Speaker 1: Last night was the first night since the return of 714 00:33:25,040 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: the pandemic. All was like, dude, that beltire show rocked. 715 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 1: All three of those fights in the main car were good. 716 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,160 Speaker 1: You could have put the Pico fight there. The Peako 717 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 1: fight was great too, and the way he looked like 718 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: they've got some youth. Man, if you just go and 719 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:38,440 Speaker 1: look at some of those right divisions one thirty five, 720 00:33:38,520 --> 00:33:41,640 Speaker 1: one seventy and some other ones as well, they got 721 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 1: some killers in there. And this tournament was a great 722 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 1: showcase for it. And I honestly, like I am thrilled 723 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:50,800 Speaker 1: to see the Pitbull Sanchez rematch. Can't wait to see 724 00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 1: next week with aj McKee and Caldwell and who they 725 00:33:54,200 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 1: end up matching up within the end. It's gonna be phenomenal, dude, 726 00:33:56,880 --> 00:33:57,880 Speaker 1: I really can't wait. 727 00:33:58,240 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, these are one of those times where you do 728 00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 2: take the off to Scot Coker. They don't do everything right. 729 00:34:01,800 --> 00:34:03,640 Speaker 2: They can do certain things right. This was one of them. 730 00:34:03,800 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 2: Another one, Luke, was that third fight you mentioned the 731 00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 2: welterweights unbeaten versus unbeaten. This was one of those two 732 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:12,439 Speaker 2: colliding trains in terms of this fight. Will tell us 733 00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,759 Speaker 2: sort of which guy belator should back and start promoting heavily. Luke, 734 00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:21,280 Speaker 2: this a great ass fight, Yaroslav Amasov improving to twenty 735 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,280 Speaker 2: five and oer which let's talk about. 736 00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 1: Luke. 737 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,200 Speaker 2: You know it's the same thing when we talk about 738 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 2: Habib and say, well, maybe the first sixteen Hebib wins. 739 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 2: We're all against Russia. Nobody's again this mixed martial arts. 740 00:34:31,160 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 2: I don't care if you're on the regional scene and 741 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 2: the cage breaks and somebody parachutes in the middle, or 742 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 2: justin kiss shitz or pants you go, you start, you 743 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 2: go undefeated this deep into your career, Luke, it's impressive. 744 00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,560 Speaker 2: There's a million ways to lose in mma. Amazov got 745 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 2: the test that we were looking for him to get 746 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 2: to get. I think both guys raised their stock in 747 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 2: this one, and Luke, I'm not even sure the judges 748 00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 2: got it right. Let's talk about this. Amasov outstruck him badly, 749 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:01,280 Speaker 2: but a lot of those is Josh and pointed out correctly, 750 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,839 Speaker 2: was an exhausted fighter. Tap tap tap a ruin. Luke, 751 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:07,440 Speaker 2: you know that will work with some judges as it 752 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:10,280 Speaker 2: won't with others. I saw a logan story, who pushed 753 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 2: the pace, made amasof fight his fight for good stretches 754 00:35:14,680 --> 00:35:16,560 Speaker 2: and kind of warm them out and guessed him out 755 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,600 Speaker 2: by committing so heavily to the wrestling early. Who did 756 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 2: you have in this one? 757 00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: So the third round was easy Logan story. Let's say 758 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:26,080 Speaker 1: he lost the first two rounds, which is a plausible scenario, 759 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: there's no way he lost the third. In fact, he 760 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: took the back of Amasov and got close with a 761 00:35:31,840 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 1: couple of rear naked choke attempts where you could see 762 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,920 Speaker 1: Amasov's face straining to deal with not merely getting the choke, 763 00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,319 Speaker 1: but he was getting bowed out on his spine, which 764 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: is very very uncomfortable and painful. And you can imagine 765 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 1: a four time All Americans got a fucking squeeze on him. So, 766 00:35:47,160 --> 00:35:51,800 Speaker 1: you know, a very very very impressive third round effort 767 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: from Logan story. To me, it comes down to the 768 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,439 Speaker 1: second round, first round, amazof third round, no doubt about 769 00:35:56,440 --> 00:35:58,359 Speaker 1: it is going to be story. It's the second round, 770 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,000 Speaker 1: you know. Big Job was making a point was like, 771 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,880 Speaker 1: who did more work to bring you closer to the finish? 772 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: And I guess the answer if you were looking at 773 00:36:05,400 --> 00:36:09,120 Speaker 1: that way, which I guess is how the scoring criteria 774 00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: looks at it. The answer would be Amasov, but not really. 775 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: If you ask me, yes, he had a couple of 776 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:18,359 Speaker 1: dars attempts, neither was especially close. Neither was really gonna 777 00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:20,600 Speaker 1: get you meaningfully towards the finish. To me, I look 778 00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:22,880 Speaker 1: at him more of like a really clever way to 779 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 1: do submission or positional dominance. Right, so it looks pretty good, 780 00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:31,239 Speaker 1: it's not really gonna get you there. And if you 781 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: actually asked who did the most work in that regard, 782 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:35,400 Speaker 1: it would in the second round it would be Logan Story, 783 00:36:35,480 --> 00:36:38,359 Speaker 1: but he also got some punishment his way. It's a 784 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,400 Speaker 1: close call. I scored it for Amasov, wouldn't have complained 785 00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 1: for Story. I think your basic point, though, was correct. 786 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:47,600 Speaker 1: Both guys raising their stock. Amasof twenty five and zero 787 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: has beaten both Ed Ruth and Logan Story. He has 788 00:36:51,280 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: beaten Eric Silva, Gerald Harris, David Rickles. Give this guy 789 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 1: a title shot. He has done more than enough. And 790 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: Logan Story may have stumbled a bit last night, but 791 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 1: he is clear a force to be reckoned with it. 792 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 1: One hundred and seventy pounds some of the best scrambles 793 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,799 Speaker 1: you're ever gonna see in any kind of high end 794 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 1: welterweight fight. If you didn't go see it, find a 795 00:37:09,200 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: way to do it. It was phenomenal. 796 00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 2: Look when we went when they went to the cards, Luke, 797 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:15,520 Speaker 2: I felt Story had a good chance, So I thought 798 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:17,799 Speaker 2: he could have won that fight. And it's odd enough, 799 00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 2: I thought he won him the fight. If you believed 800 00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 2: stort Logan won this two rounds to one. It was 801 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 2: the round that he lost the first one that may 802 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 2: have won him the fight, Luke, because I think his 803 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 2: relentlessness in going to the takedowns did show that Amasov 804 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:33,960 Speaker 2: can wrestle and can stop the takedown. But look at 805 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,080 Speaker 2: warm out. I mean, Story was the guy who had 806 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:38,000 Speaker 2: the better motor on this night. It's not that he 807 00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:40,520 Speaker 2: doesn't have a lot to learn, Logan Storley. He needs 808 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 2: to work on a striking and straight up, but he's 809 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:44,719 Speaker 2: with the right team Standford MMA. He's got a guy 810 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 2: in the corner, Robbie Lawler, who absolutely believes in him 811 00:37:47,400 --> 00:37:50,160 Speaker 2: and is pushing him in camp. This guy's got a motor, 812 00:37:50,239 --> 00:37:52,799 Speaker 2: he's got the right attitude. I loved how angry he 813 00:37:52,880 --> 00:37:55,240 Speaker 2: was when he lost it, Luke, because he came pretty 814 00:37:55,320 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 2: darn close to pulling that off. And like we said, 815 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:00,600 Speaker 2: even in defeat, he made a big nnouncement of who 816 00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:02,640 Speaker 2: he is. Good to see this from Bellator. 817 00:38:02,800 --> 00:38:04,640 Speaker 1: Okay, because let me say this, let me say this 818 00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: real quickly. BC. Put up that last picture. Whoever's running 819 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,759 Speaker 1: the photos there, Gaff or Cory or whoever, the one 820 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,400 Speaker 1: where Amasov is getting his hand raised. Put that picture 821 00:38:12,400 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 1: out there for just a second. I want to, I 822 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 1: want to. I noticed this last night and I was like, dude, no, no, no, no, no, 823 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:18,880 Speaker 1: the one where's getting his hand raised. There you go. 824 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 1: Can we zoom in on the referee? Go back? Please 825 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,359 Speaker 1: go back? Yes, you leave that one, that's fine. Can 826 00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:28,280 Speaker 1: you zoom in on the referee? Look at my man's 827 00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,760 Speaker 1: My man's got seven haircuts here going all at once. 828 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,359 Speaker 1: He's got a mush Yeah, he's got a mullet, he's 829 00:38:36,360 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 1: got a fade, he's got like a part up top. 830 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:41,799 Speaker 1: He looks like he's joining a rockabilly band. What is 831 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:43,480 Speaker 1: Kevin McDonald doing, bro. 832 00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:46,560 Speaker 2: Well, look, when you're on the same card as Mike 833 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:49,600 Speaker 2: Beltron Luk, you do need to step up your game 834 00:38:49,640 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 2: to get noticed, right, I mean, you're just another white 835 00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:53,840 Speaker 2: guy if you don't, so you don't have the Josh 836 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:57,640 Speaker 2: Rosenthal tats or the weed farm in your u on 837 00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:00,120 Speaker 2: your plantation. So you got to do something, Luke, to 838 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,879 Speaker 2: get going. Here's what I did want to say that 839 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 2: Look again, we're never gonna lie who Beltore is right. 840 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:09,160 Speaker 2: Some of it is smoking mirrors, some of it is 841 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 2: good young fighters who have a bright future. Some of 842 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:13,960 Speaker 2: it is let's let's buy some old names and put 843 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 2: them out there for ratings. This was the kind of 844 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 2: fight you love, though, two guys that are homegrown that 845 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:22,239 Speaker 2: they can build upon. Luke. It was the exact opposite 846 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:26,520 Speaker 2: of the matchmaking in the UH in the what's her name? 847 00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:30,040 Speaker 2: Melendez fight that had you blowing up my text, Luke, 848 00:39:30,080 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 2: do you wanna you wanna? You want to play that card? 849 00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,719 Speaker 1: Now you want to? I'll just say very quickly, there 850 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: was this Carrie on Taylor Melendez, who is what four 851 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 1: or five fights deep into her career right now. This 852 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,520 Speaker 1: is when you know you're not supposed to get necessarily 853 00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,279 Speaker 1: a huge jump in quality of an opponent, but you 854 00:39:43,320 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 1: should begin to get something a little bit tougher at 855 00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,759 Speaker 1: that point. And they gave her this woman whose last 856 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:49,600 Speaker 1: name is King I'm not gonna sit here and brade 857 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 1: her except to say she had absolutely no business not 858 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 1: only being in this fight, but honestly in a belt 859 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 1: or cage at all. And I know she got some 860 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 1: kind of surprising win over somebody, and I think in 861 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 1: boxing or whatever, dude, this fight. They should not have 862 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:05,879 Speaker 1: made this fight. They should not have made this fight. 863 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,600 Speaker 1: I don't know how the commission agreed to it. Within 864 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:13,359 Speaker 1: ten seconds you knew by watching her movement King was 865 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,600 Speaker 1: totally out of her depth. And honestly, the reason why, 866 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:19,319 Speaker 1: like you know, you can't complain too much in the end, 867 00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:21,359 Speaker 1: is because she got submitted from the back, which you know, 868 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 1: once it went to the ground, she had no idea 869 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,279 Speaker 1: what she was doing whatsoever. So she had this merciful end. 870 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 1: But like what if Carrie Antela Melendez wasn't merciful, you know, 871 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:33,560 Speaker 1: that could have gotten really, really bad. And so in general, 872 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:36,080 Speaker 1: last night was a big win for Belator, make no 873 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,440 Speaker 1: mistake about it. The card was so fun to watch. 874 00:40:40,040 --> 00:40:42,000 Speaker 1: But I don't know how they came up with that 875 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:45,239 Speaker 1: fight and why they made it, and that lady miss 876 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:46,800 Speaker 1: King does not need to be in a belt or 877 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:49,240 Speaker 1: cage ever. Again, not for a long time. 878 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,279 Speaker 2: Beltre's got a few of those. Remember that guy from 879 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,160 Speaker 2: the meat packing plant, that pud Jay Hager. Oh that 880 00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:56,319 Speaker 2: was great. That guy actually came to fight. By the way, 881 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,040 Speaker 2: look we do have to talk about Aaron Pico, who 882 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,719 Speaker 2: was in the preliminary main event on this undercar. So 883 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 2: the Aaron Pico experience, I think it's always must see. 884 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,399 Speaker 2: I think as fun as balls, because whether he wins 885 00:41:06,480 --> 00:41:08,920 Speaker 2: or loses, it's like a reality show to see if 886 00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:12,759 Speaker 2: this greatest contender, greatest prospect, let's say, you know, really 887 00:41:12,800 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 2: the brightest prospect in MMA history, a guy Belzer signed 888 00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 2: in high school. Can he figure out how great he is? Luke, 889 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,319 Speaker 2: I felt like he turned a corner last night. And 890 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,360 Speaker 2: it almost has nothing to do or not completely relying 891 00:41:24,440 --> 00:41:27,600 Speaker 2: upon the highlight you're watching now. This was a sensational 892 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:32,080 Speaker 2: knockout of this fellow de Hazers, Absolutely sensational, and it's 893 00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 2: made even better when you hear Pico talk afterwards about 894 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 2: how they studied coach Brendan Gibson. They studied this moment 895 00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:41,560 Speaker 2: right here in that call out of one for great stuff. 896 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 2: But almost remove that from the memory bank, Luke, to 897 00:41:44,560 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 2: make for Aaron Pico to be great again. For me 898 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,640 Speaker 2: to wear a red Maga hat for Pico, He's got 899 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:52,839 Speaker 2: to commit to the damn wrestling. But as Josh Thompson said, 900 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,399 Speaker 2: very intelligently, use the wrestling in the great boxing, which 901 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:59,720 Speaker 2: he's relied too much upon, together to compliment one another. 902 00:42:00,239 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 2: This was the best I've ever seen Aaron Pico. We've 903 00:42:02,920 --> 00:42:05,320 Speaker 2: seen him go in there, walk people down and destroy 904 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:07,720 Speaker 2: them because his hands are just so good for this level. 905 00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:11,400 Speaker 2: But Luke, combining both elements. I mean, he beat the 906 00:42:11,560 --> 00:42:15,040 Speaker 2: crap out of Dazus on the ground multiple times. The takedowns, 907 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 2: the transitions, the savagery. This is the Aaron Pico that 908 00:42:19,400 --> 00:42:21,279 Speaker 2: used to get that people, used to get rock hard 909 00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 2: with emotion. On to steal another j Hager quote, Luke, 910 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,839 Speaker 2: this is the guy I think he's figuring out under 911 00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,280 Speaker 2: Coach Jackson. Coach wink howt to be that guy again? 912 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,760 Speaker 2: Shout out to the horse with the long dong. Piko's 913 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:34,759 Speaker 2: for real now, Luke, It's time. It's time. He's for real, bro. 914 00:42:35,520 --> 00:42:37,520 Speaker 1: And I'll say this, I still think he's got plenty 915 00:42:37,560 --> 00:42:40,040 Speaker 1: of development left to go. I mean, he's far from 916 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:43,120 Speaker 1: a finished product. What the Jackson folks did was get 917 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,799 Speaker 1: him to where he is supposed to be because he 918 00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:47,840 Speaker 1: did not have the development he was supposed to have. 919 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 1: In fact, the many ways it almost hurt him. He 920 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:51,880 Speaker 1: talked about being broken by the time he ended up 921 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: at Jackson Wink in those words, the word broken, and 922 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 1: they began to piece him back together again. And I 923 00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:58,920 Speaker 1: know some folks are like, oh, he should be on 924 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: fighting you know better guys on the main card. You know, listen, 925 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,480 Speaker 1: if his development had gone appropriately, I would say so. 926 00:43:05,840 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: But because he needed such help in getting the train 927 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 1: back on the tracks, fighting on a prelium card against 928 00:43:12,200 --> 00:43:16,560 Speaker 1: you know, somewhat overmatched opposition I think is the right call. 929 00:43:16,960 --> 00:43:19,839 Speaker 1: It's not about this fight being like the test of 930 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:24,040 Speaker 1: where he is. It's about each opportunity being another run 931 00:43:24,080 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 1: through the cycle as you begin to repair all the 932 00:43:26,840 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: damage from what was done before. And maybe he's at 933 00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:32,360 Speaker 1: the point now where it's time to begin to step 934 00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:33,839 Speaker 1: the things up a little bit. I don't know that 935 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,760 Speaker 1: he's been fighting on prelim cards anymore, but he climbed 936 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:39,800 Speaker 1: to seven and three. He's got now ten fights. I 937 00:43:39,800 --> 00:43:41,400 Speaker 1: think he's about three four to five win streak at 938 00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 1: this point. Whatever ends up being and he has finally 939 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:48,239 Speaker 1: kind of he's fighting in a way that is smart, strategic, 940 00:43:48,560 --> 00:43:52,960 Speaker 1: speaks to his strengths, doesn't you know, ignore his weaknesses. 941 00:43:53,440 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: Still a couple of issues to iron out, getting a 942 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,640 Speaker 1: little bit overly aggressive last night, but that's fine from 943 00:43:57,680 --> 00:43:59,279 Speaker 1: a fighter who still obviously has a way to go 944 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,760 Speaker 1: in terms of his own maturation. But he is fighting 945 00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: in a way that is the way he should be fighting. 946 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:09,120 Speaker 1: What are you good at? Let's focus on what needs work. 947 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:11,840 Speaker 1: Let's let's you know, let's put that away until we 948 00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:14,080 Speaker 1: can really bring that out as a strength, and let's 949 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:18,759 Speaker 1: give you this developmental incremental improvement in opposition to get 950 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 1: you to a place where we know we can maximize 951 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:23,440 Speaker 1: your skill. I give Belletzer a ton of credit in 952 00:44:23,920 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 1: you know, the two point zero effort. They rushed him 953 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:28,160 Speaker 1: too fast and by the way, his team is responsible 954 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:30,359 Speaker 1: for that too, in washing him out there the first time, 955 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,800 Speaker 1: but the second effort, don't rush it, do it slow. 956 00:44:34,120 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 1: I give him credit. 957 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:38,719 Speaker 2: I give him credit personally, Luke, because when you come 958 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,680 Speaker 2: in with that much hype, and let's not like if 959 00:44:40,719 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 2: you don't know his backstory, Luke, he's been like he 960 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:46,319 Speaker 2: was like in a laboratory prepared for this moment, right 961 00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:50,280 Speaker 2: like he was, you know, a world class rank junior boxer, wrestler, 962 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:52,480 Speaker 2: all this stuff. He was too good for his own 963 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:54,720 Speaker 2: good early, Luke to be able to go into Freddie 964 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 2: Roach's wildcard gym and spar Miguel Coto and and hold 965 00:44:57,880 --> 00:44:59,960 Speaker 2: his own and have moments at like twenty years old. 966 00:45:00,000 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 2: I mean, look like he was a guy who came 967 00:45:02,239 --> 00:45:04,960 Speaker 2: in and I think that you have to throw shade 968 00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,799 Speaker 2: at at the team originally, and those who were close 969 00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:10,080 Speaker 2: to him do admit that that. You know, I remember 970 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,719 Speaker 2: his pro debut, Luke, on that MSG card, the pay 971 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:14,920 Speaker 2: per view for Bellator. He was in a weight class 972 00:45:14,920 --> 00:45:17,000 Speaker 2: too high against a guy who was too experienced in 973 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,160 Speaker 2: Ian Freeman, and he got caught and submitted early. And 974 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:23,760 Speaker 2: then he was matching himself too hard without rebuilding himself 975 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:26,440 Speaker 2: and trying to go for knockouts like crazy. I give 976 00:45:26,520 --> 00:45:28,359 Speaker 2: him credit, Luke, because this is this could have been 977 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:31,680 Speaker 2: a child star situation. This could have been Todd Bridges, right, 978 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,960 Speaker 2: we could have saw Pico and the police blotder. Now 979 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:36,640 Speaker 2: he figured it out, and he needed to figure it 980 00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,759 Speaker 2: out emotionally, and I talked to him like this two 981 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,320 Speaker 2: wins now in four months since moving to Jackson's and 982 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,400 Speaker 2: I talked to him early in the quarantine and everything 983 00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:47,360 Speaker 2: about that moved to New Mexico, like this guy friggin 984 00:45:47,480 --> 00:45:50,439 Speaker 2: loves horses, Luke, everything about that has calmed him down, 985 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 2: has sort of gotten him away from the negativity of 986 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,520 Speaker 2: being pushed too hard in California and has helped him 987 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,879 Speaker 2: figure out who he really is. And I give him 988 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 2: that credit for not crumbling after those defeats. Some of 989 00:46:00,320 --> 00:46:04,960 Speaker 2: those were devastating. They were absolutely devastating, and he's got 990 00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:07,560 Speaker 2: plenty of time to figure out not just an MMA 991 00:46:07,640 --> 00:46:10,200 Speaker 2: but also in boxing, where his eventual goal is to 992 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 2: win a title at a high level in both sports. 993 00:46:13,120 --> 00:46:15,279 Speaker 2: This kid's still special and to be able to come 994 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 2: over that roadblock and get back into strategy, he said 995 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:20,680 Speaker 2: he didn't never had a strategy in the past. So 996 00:46:20,719 --> 00:46:23,560 Speaker 2: what they're doing down there at Jackson Wink. He's sort 997 00:46:23,560 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 2: of getting real time coaching for the first time in 998 00:46:26,000 --> 00:46:28,560 Speaker 2: terms of actually knowing why he's doing things. And you 999 00:46:28,600 --> 00:46:31,040 Speaker 2: saw in that post fight interview, Luke, when it catches 1000 00:46:31,120 --> 00:46:33,560 Speaker 2: up up here, he's got everything else, He's got everything 1001 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:36,479 Speaker 2: else he needs. Luke this guy's gonna be scary. I mean, 1002 00:46:36,880 --> 00:46:38,359 Speaker 2: I see a lot of Michael Chandler in him. 1003 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 1: Do you see that a little bit? I think he's 1004 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:43,440 Speaker 1: a little bit of a different fighter, but certainly there 1005 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,239 Speaker 1: are some parallels there. Yeah. I don't have much to 1006 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:47,040 Speaker 1: add to that, except I think Brandon Gibson is a 1007 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:49,719 Speaker 1: more than just a striking coach. I think he can 1008 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:51,800 Speaker 1: be in the right circumstance as a leader of men. 1009 00:46:51,960 --> 00:46:53,759 Speaker 1: He's a guy who has told me about mistakes he 1010 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,799 Speaker 1: made as a coach in his past and how he 1011 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:58,200 Speaker 1: doesn't want to repeat those with the next generation of talents. 1012 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,279 Speaker 1: And I think you're seeing, you know, it's not just 1013 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 1: the fighter getting better with the coach. That's good. You're 1014 00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:06,320 Speaker 1: seeing those coaches who in the you know, the aughts 1015 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:10,080 Speaker 1: or the twenty tens were beginning to get better themselves. 1016 00:47:10,200 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: Now they're really leaning on, you know, a decade or 1017 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 1: more of being in the trenches there and bringing that 1018 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:19,600 Speaker 1: prospect or bringing those those experiences to bear, and everyone 1019 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 1: is benefiting, and I think the sport's going to be better 1020 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:21,879 Speaker 1: for it. 1021 00:47:23,000 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 2: All right, Luke, let's roll on here. It was a 1022 00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,520 Speaker 2: week ago today on our last Friday show that the whole. 1023 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 2: Canelo Alvarez breaking news, the biggest star in boxing, the 1024 00:47:31,160 --> 00:47:36,640 Speaker 2: Mexican pound for pound king, Mexican superstar. We've seen some whispers, 1025 00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,600 Speaker 2: some rumors back and forth. Originally he was linked for 1026 00:47:38,680 --> 00:47:40,920 Speaker 2: maybe a one off fight against Caleb Plant with the PBC. 1027 00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,879 Speaker 2: The latest reporting on Canelo Alvarez Luke, and this comes 1028 00:47:43,920 --> 00:47:46,640 Speaker 2: from Eddie Hern himself, who spoke to multiple outlets, is 1029 00:47:46,680 --> 00:47:50,520 Speaker 2: that Herman Mattrium Sport are currently negotiating the possibility of 1030 00:47:50,600 --> 00:47:54,280 Speaker 2: Canelo doing a one off with them against one hundred 1031 00:47:54,280 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 2: and sixty eight pound champion Callum Smith of England, Who's big, 1032 00:47:57,840 --> 00:48:01,479 Speaker 2: he's unbeaten, he's fun and aggressed. If Luke, this would 1033 00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:03,600 Speaker 2: be an interesting fight because there's a couple of interesting 1034 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:08,279 Speaker 2: elements here. They're gunning for December eighteenth, nineteenth, or twentieth, 1035 00:48:08,480 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 2: depending upon the competition on those dates. They want to 1036 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:14,120 Speaker 2: do it at att Stadium, Home of the Cowboys, in Arlington, 1037 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 2: and they want to do it back on his own 1038 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:20,359 Speaker 2: where Mattroom's Sport of course has a giant deal with Luke. 1039 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:25,319 Speaker 2: This would be pretty wild if Canelo could sue his 1040 00:48:25,400 --> 00:48:29,000 Speaker 2: promoter and network get them to basically throw up their 1041 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:30,840 Speaker 2: hands and be like, yup, you want walk away, you 1042 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,719 Speaker 2: get what you want. Call his own shots and have 1043 00:48:33,800 --> 00:48:37,239 Speaker 2: the first shot be back in his ex lover's home 1044 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:41,239 Speaker 2: and do it in Cowboys Stadium and shrew to what 1045 00:48:41,400 --> 00:48:44,520 Speaker 2: Canelo is about do it in a difficult fight. I 1046 00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:47,279 Speaker 2: know Callum Smith isn't you know as proven, doesn't have 1047 00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 2: this deep resume. But he's seven inches taller than Canelo. 1048 00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:55,360 Speaker 2: And Canelo has that bootleg secondary super middleway title that 1049 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,879 Speaker 2: he won from Rocky Fielding. Callum Smith has the big 1050 00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:00,160 Speaker 2: boy version. So we hate in boxing that there's too 1051 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,600 Speaker 2: many belts. He's actually going after the champion who has 1052 00:49:02,640 --> 00:49:05,560 Speaker 2: the big version of the one he wants. Look, this 1053 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:07,879 Speaker 2: is the I mean, what are we gonna say bad 1054 00:49:07,880 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 2: about Canelo at this point? They're a pretty ballsy, big 1055 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:10,680 Speaker 2: time move here. 1056 00:49:12,280 --> 00:49:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm surprised to hear it, to be honest with you, 1057 00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:17,000 Speaker 1: When I read the report like you did, I was like, huh, 1058 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 1: that's interesting. You sue to leave the zone to go 1059 00:49:21,360 --> 00:49:24,960 Speaker 1: right back to the zone. How are they gonna have 1060 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 1: the money to pay you for the reasons that you left? Like, 1061 00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:31,000 Speaker 1: I don't part of that. I don't get either, Although 1062 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:32,640 Speaker 1: who the hell knows. I mean, there must be some 1063 00:49:32,719 --> 00:49:34,080 Speaker 1: kind of way that this is the canal work out 1064 00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:37,680 Speaker 1: if they were this far down the road. I don't 1065 00:49:37,680 --> 00:49:40,000 Speaker 1: mind the fight. I thought you did it. You're right, 1066 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:43,359 Speaker 1: it's like Canelo is a much higher level attraction than 1067 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 1: Callum Smith. But for the weight class differences, there's a 1068 00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 1: reason to be interested in it. It's just I could 1069 00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,080 Speaker 1: have sworn you know, maybe you feel the same way 1070 00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 1: I thought he was turning the dizone page. You know, 1071 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,360 Speaker 1: going into business with Eddie Hearn on some level you 1072 00:49:59,360 --> 00:50:01,279 Speaker 1: could sort of say for a one fight deal makes sense. 1073 00:50:01,320 --> 00:50:03,560 Speaker 1: But of course Herne is tied to de Zone. But 1074 00:50:03,600 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 1: I mean just sort of doing business with a you know, 1075 00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:08,160 Speaker 1: a a any kind of promoter in that space who 1076 00:50:08,200 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 1: has a reasonable level of visibility. I'm not necessarily surprised by. 1077 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:15,399 Speaker 1: I just don't understand you left. Part of the reason 1078 00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:17,440 Speaker 1: why you left his zone was they were low balling 1079 00:50:17,520 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 1: you relative to what they had promised. How can they 1080 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,520 Speaker 1: fix that unless it's like they can say, well, if 1081 00:50:22,520 --> 00:50:25,120 Speaker 1: it's one fight, we can give you more, but we 1082 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:27,000 Speaker 1: probably couldn't do it again. Maybe there's somebody to be 1083 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 1: said for that. I don't really know. I thought he 1084 00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:32,279 Speaker 1: was headed to ESPN or Fox, maybe Showtime something like that, 1085 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,439 Speaker 1: and maybe he will be for a long term deal BC. 1086 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:39,520 Speaker 1: But to go right back, I don't know what to 1087 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,799 Speaker 1: say except how is the money working out in the 1088 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 1: way that it needs to for this to be a 1089 00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:46,400 Speaker 1: real thing. Somebody please tart. 1090 00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,279 Speaker 2: Rapped up that deal that they promised, and the issue with. 1091 00:50:49,239 --> 00:50:52,560 Speaker 1: The issue, I know they ripped it up like I'm 1092 00:50:52,560 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 1: not under the I'm not laboring under the delusion. They're like, oh, 1093 00:50:55,040 --> 00:50:56,960 Speaker 1: let's go back to the old blueprint. But what I'm 1094 00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,000 Speaker 1: saying was part of the reason why they were having 1095 00:50:59,040 --> 00:51:01,640 Speaker 1: the money issues is Desoonne was saying, we were having 1096 00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:04,799 Speaker 1: financial difficulties. They're not having them anymore. Or is the 1097 00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:07,360 Speaker 1: idea that if there's just one fight we can poneing 1098 00:51:07,440 --> 00:51:09,120 Speaker 1: up a little bit more for that one fight. 1099 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,840 Speaker 2: They couldn't afford the thirty five million per fight that 1100 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 2: they guaranteed. No one should be able to afford that 1101 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 2: this moment. I mean, you know, we're we're in a 1102 00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 2: you can't even have fans in a live gay although 1103 00:51:17,160 --> 00:51:19,000 Speaker 2: obviously if they put this at AT and T Stadium, they 1104 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,200 Speaker 2: want a certain level of fans. But the whole point 1105 00:51:21,239 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 2: here at Luke is by ripping up the deal and 1106 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:26,959 Speaker 2: allowing Canelo to go, they basically said, you know, we can't, 1107 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:29,960 Speaker 2: we can't win this lawsuit, and your reward is we don't. 1108 00:51:30,000 --> 00:51:31,480 Speaker 2: We're not gonna go down the road of fighting it. 1109 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,880 Speaker 2: Just walk away. They wanted to sign them for twenty 1110 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,400 Speaker 2: million per fight if they're the only network at the 1111 00:51:36,440 --> 00:51:38,960 Speaker 2: moment who can give him that immediate fight. He wants 1112 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:41,400 Speaker 2: to come right back in December and make this happen 1113 00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,080 Speaker 2: and he can get twenty something million four. I mean, 1114 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,680 Speaker 2: it's interesting. It is a little bit like you know, 1115 00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 2: walking out in your family and then being invited back 1116 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:50,800 Speaker 2: to Thanksgiving with your new girlfriend. I mean, it's interesting. 1117 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:54,080 Speaker 2: But there's a lot of reasons to believe that this 1118 00:51:54,120 --> 00:51:56,320 Speaker 2: is a one off and Canelo goes in the direction 1119 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,000 Speaker 2: of maybe PBC and Al Haym and Luke and Dan 1120 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:02,279 Speaker 2: Rayfiel formally ESPN now with Boxing Scene dot Com did 1121 00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 2: report through his sources that it's most likely Canelo, who's 1122 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,960 Speaker 2: talking to PBC at the moment, would end up, you know, 1123 00:52:08,080 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 2: doing some type of three year deal with them, and 1124 00:52:10,480 --> 00:52:13,200 Speaker 2: that would make a lot more sense Luke, and it's 1125 00:52:13,239 --> 00:52:16,279 Speaker 2: not just the fact that PBC would have the you know, 1126 00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:19,120 Speaker 2: network deals with Fox and Showtime to do traditional pay 1127 00:52:19,200 --> 00:52:21,440 Speaker 2: per view, and he's got a great history with Showtime 1128 00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 2: as we know. But the fact that Al Hayman is 1129 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 2: a manager an advisor who you know, has has flipped 1130 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:32,400 Speaker 2: the model upside down. He takes promoters and makes them 1131 00:52:32,520 --> 00:52:35,280 Speaker 2: you know, his bitch. He basically, you know, says you 1132 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,960 Speaker 2: physically promote the fight. I'm just the manager, but I'm 1133 00:52:37,960 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 2: also kind of calling the shots. And what that might 1134 00:52:41,239 --> 00:52:43,600 Speaker 2: allow Canelo should he want to go the direction of 1135 00:52:43,640 --> 00:52:46,120 Speaker 2: what Floyd did in the past is you know, Canelo 1136 00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 2: Promotions whatever that is, right, all these starboxers think they 1137 00:52:49,000 --> 00:52:51,920 Speaker 2: have their own promotional stable, you know that could potentially 1138 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,000 Speaker 2: still be the lead promoter even though you're under the 1139 00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:58,319 Speaker 2: PBC managerial banner. You'd have to think that's much more 1140 00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,239 Speaker 2: enticing for Canelo at this point and then getting back 1141 00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:03,359 Speaker 2: in a long term deal with a single promoter, given 1142 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:05,600 Speaker 2: how it went with Oscar and Golden Boy. And look, 1143 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:10,280 Speaker 2: if you're looking for the network or promoter or pairing 1144 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,359 Speaker 2: that offers him the most potential big name opponents, it's 1145 00:53:13,360 --> 00:53:16,440 Speaker 2: certainly PBC. When you've got Caleb Plant and David Benavitez 1146 00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:18,919 Speaker 2: at one sixty eight, along with a deep division there, 1147 00:53:19,280 --> 00:53:22,640 Speaker 2: you've got the possibility of people like you got the Charlos, 1148 00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:25,000 Speaker 2: you got the possibility of somebody like Errol Spence moving up. 1149 00:53:25,000 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 2: And then you just have that complete and loaded one 1150 00:53:27,040 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty four pound division which might move up 1151 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,319 Speaker 2: not just one half of the Charlo twins, but Jarrett Hurd, 1152 00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:34,839 Speaker 2: who we both love, is a giant junior middleweight and 1153 00:53:35,000 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 2: a lot more names there. I know Canelo's future isn't 1154 00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:41,120 Speaker 2: as likely to be at one sixty in the long run, 1155 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 2: given the weight challenges, but that's probably his best short 1156 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:46,839 Speaker 2: term game here to switch to that, and if he did, 1157 00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:49,120 Speaker 2: look a lot of fun matchups you can make would 1158 00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:51,200 Speaker 2: be fun for us as well. Be interesting to see 1159 00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:53,359 Speaker 2: where this goes. I just got to say this, it's 1160 00:53:53,400 --> 00:53:56,160 Speaker 2: not that Canelo Luke and the public eye is undefeated. 1161 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 1: Right. 1162 00:53:57,040 --> 00:54:00,760 Speaker 2: He had the tainted beef gate of the second glove 1163 00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 2: Can fight. Right, He's got the weird tattoos of his 1164 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 2: wife's eyeballs right there. He waited out Glovekin two years, right. 1165 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:10,680 Speaker 2: I mean, there's he's done a couple fishy things but 1166 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:13,439 Speaker 2: for the most part, this is the Canelo era Luke, 1167 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,120 Speaker 2: and he's always looking to fight the damn best and 1168 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:19,160 Speaker 2: take chances. I have to salute Big Red, Thank you, Canelo, 1169 00:54:19,320 --> 00:54:19,600 Speaker 2: thank you. 1170 00:54:19,960 --> 00:54:22,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. Let's see what happens if he ends up fighting 1171 00:54:22,160 --> 00:54:25,479 Speaker 1: in December. You know, I'm still a designed customer for now, 1172 00:54:25,680 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 1: so fine by me, you know. 1173 00:54:28,120 --> 00:54:32,920 Speaker 2: And Ryan Garcia, who's December fifth fight with Luke Campbell 1174 00:54:33,120 --> 00:54:35,760 Speaker 2: is postponed. He's trying to get on that Canelo undercard, 1175 00:54:35,840 --> 00:54:37,920 Speaker 2: either against Luke Campbell if you can make it, or 1176 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:41,239 Speaker 2: even against Jorge Lenaris Luke, which would be a hell 1177 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,439 Speaker 2: of a last minute replacement there. That'd be a very 1178 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 2: fun fight that would still teach us a lot about 1179 00:54:46,320 --> 00:54:49,319 Speaker 2: who Ryan Garcia is, so follow that closely as we 1180 00:54:49,360 --> 00:54:52,120 Speaker 2: move forward, and to close Luke for our topics of 1181 00:54:52,200 --> 00:54:53,960 Speaker 2: the weekend, we do have a big boxing fight this 1182 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:57,920 Speaker 2: Saturday on ESPN when Terrence Crawford unbeating your WBO. Well 1183 00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:01,960 Speaker 2: it'sway champion defense against thirty four year old Kell Brook 1184 00:55:02,160 --> 00:55:04,280 Speaker 2: who's coming in here on a three fight win streak. 1185 00:55:04,320 --> 00:55:08,200 Speaker 2: But Luke coming in here with the idea of is 1186 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:09,960 Speaker 2: he shop worn? Is this the beginning of the end, 1187 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,600 Speaker 2: is he cashing himself out? I had him on Morning 1188 00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 2: Combat last week, we did, or you know, I talked 1189 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,759 Speaker 2: to him, and he's in the best shape of his life. 1190 00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,120 Speaker 2: He's got a new promoter, he's got a new trainer, 1191 00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,279 Speaker 2: he's blah blah blah. I believe we're gonna get the 1192 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:26,799 Speaker 2: best of what's left of Kelbrook. Will that be enough 1193 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:29,479 Speaker 2: from what you've seen of Bud Crawford at one forty 1194 00:55:29,520 --> 00:55:32,319 Speaker 2: seven to have any any dent in what he's doing? 1195 00:55:32,640 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: No, I for some reason. I mean, I wouldn't say 1196 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:38,280 Speaker 1: I have antipathy towards Bud Crawford. That would be overstating things. 1197 00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:41,279 Speaker 1: But this idea that like, I mean, guys, he's a 1198 00:55:41,600 --> 00:55:45,680 Speaker 1: minus seventeen hundred favorite, kel Brook is over a plus 1199 00:55:45,719 --> 00:55:48,600 Speaker 1: one thousand in multiple places, you know, and actually in 1200 00:55:48,640 --> 00:55:50,200 Speaker 1: the boxing odds are a little bit different, right, So 1201 00:55:50,200 --> 00:55:51,320 Speaker 1: because you can have a guy who could be a 1202 00:55:51,360 --> 00:55:53,439 Speaker 1: let's say even a plus five hundred, and that could 1203 00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,839 Speaker 1: be live dog territory. So this is not the exact 1204 00:55:55,840 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 1: same as MMA being where you're if you're a plus 1205 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,600 Speaker 1: one thousand MMA, I mean, you're basically fighting your grandma 1206 00:56:00,719 --> 00:56:02,960 Speaker 1: or something, right, So it's not that kel Brook has 1207 00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,360 Speaker 1: had his time in the sun in certain ways. But 1208 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,680 Speaker 1: Bud Crawford, who is in you know, argument for top 1209 00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 1: pound for pound fighter, you know, I don't. I don't. 1210 00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:14,040 Speaker 1: I don't even know what the argument would be other 1211 00:56:14,160 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 1: than Bud Crawford is unprepared. A guy, as we talked about, 1212 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:21,279 Speaker 1: can switch it. He can fight from opposite stances. Who 1213 00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 1: is smart, He's got good power, he's experienced, He's patient 1214 00:56:25,120 --> 00:56:26,960 Speaker 1: when he needs to be. He can step on the 1215 00:56:27,000 --> 00:56:31,160 Speaker 1: gas when he needs to. Kel Brooke, it's just not 1216 00:56:31,960 --> 00:56:33,680 Speaker 1: you know more about boxing than I do, certainly be 1217 00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,600 Speaker 1: c But when I looked at the tape in preparation 1218 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:37,000 Speaker 1: for today and I went back through when I was 1219 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,520 Speaker 1: trying to there was nothing on there that showed me 1220 00:56:39,560 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 1: that this is a fight that not that couldn't be 1221 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:44,239 Speaker 1: competitive in spaces per se, But like, what is the 1222 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 1: thing that kel Brooke can do or has shown an 1223 00:56:46,760 --> 00:56:49,719 Speaker 1: ability to do that gives you reason to think that 1224 00:56:49,760 --> 00:56:52,279 Speaker 1: Bud Crawford can't figure out a way around it. 1225 00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:58,080 Speaker 2: Well, the problem is the problem is that guy did exist. 1226 00:56:58,160 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 2: But he existed in twenty fourteen when kel Brook beat 1227 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:02,920 Speaker 2: Sean Porter and came to the US and won his 1228 00:57:03,080 --> 00:57:06,239 Speaker 2: welterway title at his peak, Luke, I think Kelbrook's the 1229 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:09,759 Speaker 2: perfect guy who can give Crawford fits. He's perfectly well 1230 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:14,160 Speaker 2: rounded across the board. He's quick, he's strong, he's got 1231 00:57:14,160 --> 00:57:16,920 Speaker 2: good punch resistance. You know, outside of breaking his eye twice, 1232 00:57:17,280 --> 00:57:22,360 Speaker 2: he can land very craft full, hard countershots. He's patient, 1233 00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:25,720 Speaker 2: he's poised. There's a lot to love there. The problem, Luke, 1234 00:57:26,080 --> 00:57:28,840 Speaker 2: is that his only two defeats were damaging. It was 1235 00:57:28,880 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 2: when he moved up two way classes to fight Kelofkin, 1236 00:57:31,040 --> 00:57:32,520 Speaker 2: and he had big moments there, but he was at 1237 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 2: middleweight and he got stopped and his eye fell apart 1238 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:36,960 Speaker 2: and he broke his orbitl bone. Then he goes in 1239 00:57:37,000 --> 00:57:39,360 Speaker 2: defenses welterway title in the next fight against Errol Spence, 1240 00:57:39,400 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 2: and you remember that fight, Luke, that was a fun 1241 00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,000 Speaker 2: ass fight for eight or nine rounds, pretty damn even. 1242 00:57:44,040 --> 00:57:45,720 Speaker 2: He gave it to Erol Spence as much as he 1243 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 2: got it in returned well. Then he broke his other eye. 1244 00:57:48,520 --> 00:57:51,280 Speaker 2: And since then, Luke, although he's three and oh with 1245 00:57:51,320 --> 00:57:55,280 Speaker 2: two KOs, he's had long wayoffs. He hasn't looked like 1246 00:57:55,400 --> 00:57:58,000 Speaker 2: the same guy, and he's had a lot of trouble 1247 00:57:58,080 --> 00:58:00,400 Speaker 2: making one hundred and forty seven. He in fact moved 1248 00:58:00,480 --> 00:58:03,439 Speaker 2: up to one fifty four there. So the whole idea 1249 00:58:03,480 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 2: is you're asking the guy at thirty four to cut 1250 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 2: back down and to be at a level we haven't 1251 00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,760 Speaker 2: seen in a while. I do think he's going to 1252 00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:14,800 Speaker 2: overachieve on Saturday. And I do think there's a question 1253 00:58:14,880 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 2: to say Crawford in that last fight against mean Machine 1254 00:58:17,600 --> 00:58:20,919 Speaker 2: Kava Lawskis, was he just bored? Luke? Did he get 1255 00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:24,040 Speaker 2: surprised he got dropped? We never see Bud in any 1256 00:58:24,480 --> 00:58:27,960 Speaker 2: any kind of peril. He got dropped by mean Machine early, 1257 00:58:28,280 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 2: and I think that fight became a brawl. Nobody expected that. 1258 00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:33,800 Speaker 2: Did Bud do it because he loves to fight? Did 1259 00:58:33,840 --> 00:58:35,240 Speaker 2: he do it because he had to? I don't know. 1260 00:58:35,360 --> 00:58:36,960 Speaker 2: He still won the fight, Luke. He's still four and 1261 00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 2: oh at welterweight with four KOs, but it hasn't been 1262 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,840 Speaker 2: against great competition. I think Kelbrook is going to overachieve 1263 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:45,960 Speaker 2: on Saturday. He's gonna have moments he's gonna make Bud work. 1264 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:48,560 Speaker 2: But Bud Crawford is in this pound for pound number 1265 00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:51,840 Speaker 2: one debate for a reason. He's insanely good. Luke, once 1266 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:54,200 Speaker 2: he makes that adjustment, once he switches to South Paw. 1267 00:58:54,560 --> 00:58:56,880 Speaker 2: Once he decides whether he wants to box you from 1268 00:58:56,880 --> 00:58:59,800 Speaker 2: the outside or walk you down, or some variation of 1269 00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,480 Speaker 2: he gets to you and he gets you out of there. 1270 00:59:04,000 --> 00:59:06,040 Speaker 2: He has made some bold statements. He has not a 1271 00:59:06,040 --> 00:59:07,880 Speaker 2: big talker. You'll see on my interview this week with 1272 00:59:07,960 --> 00:59:10,120 Speaker 2: him if you haven't checked it out. But he said, look, 1273 00:59:10,640 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 2: I've never been stopped before. I never quit. This guy 1274 00:59:12,920 --> 00:59:15,440 Speaker 2: has twice. He's done it before. He'll do it again. 1275 00:59:15,960 --> 00:59:18,400 Speaker 2: You know I'm gonna go in there and be spectacular. Yeah, 1276 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 2: I believe him. Look, I don't understand those betting odds. 1277 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,800 Speaker 2: I don't know how he can be a minus seventeen hundred. 1278 00:59:23,880 --> 00:59:25,960 Speaker 2: I don't get it. I mean, kel Brook still has 1279 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 2: a pulse. He doesn't need a walker to get, you know, 1280 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 2: to walk to the ring. He's got something left enough 1281 00:59:32,200 --> 00:59:35,080 Speaker 2: to win, No, no, not enough to win. But we're 1282 00:59:35,120 --> 00:59:38,320 Speaker 2: acting like he's going in there against you know, ce 1283 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:40,480 Speaker 2: him punk. We really are. I don't get these odds. 1284 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,360 Speaker 1: Lately, Luke the Ceum punk thing. Yeah, I mean I 1285 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 1: don't think Kelbrook is that again. I think you make 1286 00:59:45,160 --> 00:59:47,880 Speaker 1: a decent case for who he used to be. And yes, 1287 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,240 Speaker 1: I saw the fight against Kawalawskis. I forget how to 1288 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 1: pronounce his name. Crawford looked to me like he was 1289 00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,680 Speaker 1: taking them lightly, but then after he got dropped, he 1290 00:59:55,760 --> 00:59:58,040 Speaker 1: was like, okay, time to call this one off, and 1291 00:59:58,040 --> 00:59:59,800 Speaker 1: then stopped him inside of the distance at the ninth. 1292 01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 1: In fact, but Bud hasn't gone to a decision since 1293 01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:07,000 Speaker 1: twenty fourteen. He has stopped everyone else since then. That 1294 01:00:07,040 --> 01:00:09,120 Speaker 1: was against Victor Postall, who was, of course, back in 1295 01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 1: twenty sixteen. Excuse me, you know, was much more of 1296 01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:14,200 Speaker 1: a force to be reckoned with him. Even now he's 1297 01:00:14,200 --> 01:00:16,520 Speaker 1: still pretty good. So you know, you're talking about a 1298 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,320 Speaker 1: guy who, Yes, maybe there's been better competition you could 1299 01:00:19,320 --> 01:00:21,840 Speaker 1: have faced along the way. Maybe he'll get complacent VC, 1300 01:00:22,360 --> 01:00:24,920 Speaker 1: But if you're just looking at skill for skill at 1301 01:00:24,920 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 1: the current moment, you know, God bless kel Brook.

If you don't know, now, you know, 1319 01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:11,680 Speaker 2: this segment looks back over the week that was on 1320 01:01:11,760 --> 01:01:15,000 Speaker 2: this show, and not only says what we got wrong, Luke, 1321 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,200 Speaker 2: but often our producer Jay and sometimes even the fans 1322 01:01:18,240 --> 01:01:21,480 Speaker 2: because they have challenged us many a time that we 1323 01:01:21,480 --> 01:01:24,400 Speaker 2: were wrong about something. You do the research, you find 1324 01:01:24,440 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 2: that they're dead wrong those mt first. All right, let's 1325 01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:30,280 Speaker 2: start right here, Luke, and we're starting where I started, Luke, 1326 01:01:30,360 --> 01:01:33,600 Speaker 2: torching the damn fans. You went back and check the 1327 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:36,920 Speaker 2: video from last week's Dead Wrong, where you were accused 1328 01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:39,520 Speaker 2: on the Joe Rogan podcast of trying to make the 1329 01:01:39,520 --> 01:01:43,360 Speaker 2: case that Jan Blohowitz fought at UFC at middlewaight before 1330 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:45,920 Speaker 2: moving up to two o five. It turns out it 1331 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:50,440 Speaker 2: was actually Joe Rogan and to double down here, I 1332 01:01:50,480 --> 01:01:54,080 Speaker 2: also questioned your take on Hami Mongia calling him maybe 1333 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 2: the biggest puncher in boxing. You're saying not only me, 1334 01:01:57,320 --> 01:02:00,920 Speaker 2: but all of our fans just didn't listen to your words. 1335 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 2: The floor is yours, Luke, who's wrong? 1336 01:02:03,480 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 1: Oh? The fans deserve I mean listen. This whole segment 1337 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,440 Speaker 1: is built around the idea that you and I, as 1338 01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:13,120 Speaker 1: imperfect creatures, deserve to get whacked by the stick of 1339 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:16,560 Speaker 1: truth when we stray from the path BC. And if 1340 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:18,800 Speaker 1: I don't get whacked after this, it'll be the next 1341 01:02:18,840 --> 01:02:20,360 Speaker 1: time we do it, and the time after that, and 1342 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 1: the time after that, it will be a perpetual walk 1343 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,080 Speaker 1: over glass for you and I because we are errant, 1344 01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,080 Speaker 1: fallen creatures. And I understand that, and I accept that, 1345 01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 1: but the audience needs to understand. You come at the King, 1346 01:02:32,600 --> 01:02:35,440 Speaker 1: you best not miss. Two claims were made of me, 1347 01:02:35,880 --> 01:02:37,880 Speaker 1: made about me when I went on Rogan show that 1348 01:02:37,960 --> 01:02:42,960 Speaker 1: are absolutely demonstrably false. First, they said that what I 1349 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,560 Speaker 1: said was that Honeymoon Gea was the biggest puncher in boxing, 1350 01:02:45,760 --> 01:02:48,280 Speaker 1: didn't no, I said. I said, okay, well you didn't 1351 01:02:48,280 --> 01:02:50,520 Speaker 1: listen either, because if you go back and listen explicitly 1352 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:53,680 Speaker 1: I say that and I go, then I go by weight, right. 1353 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:58,080 Speaker 2: I I was listening for my name, Luke. Sorry, never 1354 01:02:58,120 --> 01:02:58,440 Speaker 2: heard the. 1355 01:03:00,240 --> 01:03:02,600 Speaker 1: Cry more about that, will you? But the point is this. 1356 01:03:02,920 --> 01:03:04,720 Speaker 1: You can debate about whether or not that is true 1357 01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:06,520 Speaker 1: about relative to his weight class, he is or isn't 1358 01:03:06,520 --> 01:03:07,880 Speaker 1: the biggest puncher, and that's fine if you want to 1359 01:03:07,880 --> 01:03:10,520 Speaker 1: disagree or say that particular claim is wrong. But the 1360 01:03:10,560 --> 01:03:13,200 Speaker 1: idea that I'm sitting here fucking floating, the idea that 1361 01:03:13,280 --> 01:03:17,000 Speaker 1: he's somehow on par with Deontay Wilder or some shit, 1362 01:03:17,320 --> 01:03:20,160 Speaker 1: is just the invention of people who lack listening comprehension skills. 1363 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,600 Speaker 1: Number one. Number two, Those same people who lack listening 1364 01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:27,240 Speaker 1: comprehension skills told me, apparently on the show last week 1365 01:03:27,440 --> 01:03:29,440 Speaker 1: that I was the guy saying that Blakhovich fought at 1366 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:31,600 Speaker 1: one eighty five. I said, you know, I've never thought 1367 01:03:31,600 --> 01:03:33,480 Speaker 1: that in my life. How could that be? So I 1368 01:03:33,520 --> 01:03:35,960 Speaker 1: went back and I looked at the tape. Dead fucking wrong. 1369 01:03:36,600 --> 01:03:41,000 Speaker 1: Rogan said it about Tiago Santos when we were talking 1370 01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 1: about Santos and some other fighter in there. I guess 1371 01:03:43,880 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 1: it was Blovich or maybe with somebody else in the 1372 01:03:45,240 --> 01:03:48,120 Speaker 1: record there a. I don't know what Rogan was talking about, 1373 01:03:48,120 --> 01:03:52,120 Speaker 1: whether the specifics of it, but b those words never 1374 01:03:52,200 --> 01:03:54,480 Speaker 1: came out of my mouth and I didn't even co 1375 01:03:54,600 --> 01:03:56,600 Speaker 1: sign it. I just let it rock and go on 1376 01:03:56,640 --> 01:03:58,640 Speaker 1: to the ether. I was studying something else when we 1377 01:03:58,640 --> 01:04:02,440 Speaker 1: were looking at Blhovich's resume. So two times the audience 1378 01:04:02,720 --> 01:04:05,240 Speaker 1: wants to nail me to the wall, and two times 1379 01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:09,600 Speaker 1: they got it totally fucking wrong. Let me tell you something, folks. 1380 01:04:09,600 --> 01:04:11,640 Speaker 1: I'll be wrong a million times. I probably said some 1381 01:04:11,680 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 1: wrong shit today, but you come at the King you 1382 01:04:14,720 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 1: best not miss you fucked up, You're dead wrong. 1383 01:04:19,520 --> 01:04:22,400 Speaker 2: Wow, this guy quoting Omar here, I wonder if you've 1384 01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:24,560 Speaker 2: preferred the touch of a man say it's all right 1385 01:04:24,600 --> 01:04:26,920 Speaker 2: though if you do. Look, Wow, all you people that 1386 01:04:27,000 --> 01:04:29,440 Speaker 2: bought Luke's merch over the years and supported his career, 1387 01:04:29,840 --> 01:04:34,400 Speaker 2: F you. That's what Luke's basically saying. Sd all right, Hey, 1388 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:38,360 Speaker 2: Luke did get most things right on Joe Rogan. However, 1389 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:42,640 Speaker 2: on the Joe Rogan podcast, Luke had mentioned the top 1390 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:46,360 Speaker 2: Mexican holidays for boxing, which of course, are Sinco de 1391 01:04:46,440 --> 01:04:51,920 Speaker 2: Mayo May fifth weekend and Mexican Independence Day second weekend 1392 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:56,040 Speaker 2: in September, which Luke has called Mexican New Year, not 1393 01:04:56,200 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 2: just on The Joe Rogan Show, but on this one 1394 01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 2: as well.

You've 1507 01:10:20,680 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 1: just invited Kramer into the house all day long at 1508 01:10:23,880 --> 01:10:26,679 Speaker 1: this point, and that is really I cannot take credit 1509 01:10:26,800 --> 01:10:28,160 Speaker 1: or blame for that. That's on you. 1510 01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:31,160 Speaker 2: Well we said it before, but it's worth saying again. 1511 01:10:31,720 --> 01:10:35,280 Speaker 2: Jay off camera is he's not it's not like he's 1512 01:10:35,280 --> 01:10:38,639 Speaker 2: not annoying, but he's witty, he's smart. He I mean, look, 1513 01:10:38,680 --> 01:10:41,080 Speaker 2: he's a he's a he's a fun guy to talk 1514 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:44,519 Speaker 2: to and hang out with. Jay on camera is like, uh, 1515 01:10:45,120 --> 01:10:46,479 Speaker 2: I mean, do you have an equivalent, Luke. 1516 01:10:46,520 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 1: I mean it's yeah, it's like it's like it's like 1517 01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:51,200 Speaker 1: he's working at the DMV. That's about how funny he is. 1518 01:10:51,280 --> 01:10:54,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's that's right. That's right. Well, Jay, I 1519 01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,840 Speaker 2: created the Monster and Monday. Jay just he just threw 1520 01:10:57,880 --> 01:11:00,400 Speaker 2: himself onto the show. And one of the things he said, 1521 01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:04,280 Speaker 2: Luke during our very poignant and very you know, touching 1522 01:11:04,600 --> 01:11:07,639 Speaker 2: tribute to Alex Trebek, which included Reggie Jackson jumping into 1523 01:11:07,680 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 2: my lap. That it's fitting that Trebec and Connery would 1524 01:11:11,280 --> 01:11:15,280 Speaker 2: die so close together because Connery played Alex Trebek on 1525 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,880 Speaker 2: SNL in that famous skit. Uh No, he didn't, Luke. 1526 01:11:19,320 --> 01:11:22,320 Speaker 2: Sean Connery, the actor, was never in that sketch. Will 1527 01:11:22,479 --> 01:11:26,519 Speaker 2: Ferrell played Alex Trebek, while Darryl Hammond played the role 1528 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:30,679 Speaker 2: of Sean Connery in that much repeated, much hilarious sketch. Jay, 1529 01:11:30,920 --> 01:11:32,400 Speaker 2: just like when you came on here and told us 1530 01:11:32,439 --> 01:11:36,200 Speaker 2: that Bob Barker died, You're dead freaking wrong, bro, All right, 1531 01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:37,800 Speaker 2: all right, no escaping Joe. 1532 01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:40,200 Speaker 1: Jay is a dumb ass. Can we just like you 1533 01:11:40,240 --> 01:11:44,240 Speaker 1: know Jay is you know, he's he stupid? What do 1534 01:11:44,280 --> 01:11:47,000 Speaker 1: you want to move? I mean it is all right, Luke. 1535 01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:50,200 Speaker 2: We close every Friday by touching them tips, just for 1536 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:52,439 Speaker 2: a second, just to see how it feels. It's a 1537 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:56,839 Speaker 2: segment we like to call play the the the animation. 1538 01:11:56,960 --> 01:12:02,040 Speaker 2: Please tip to tip, Luke. Where we give advice, we 1539 01:12:02,120 --> 01:12:05,760 Speaker 2: recommend we tip of the cap to somebody. Luke, can 1540 01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 2: you tip me off this week? Where are you going? 1541 01:12:07,600 --> 01:12:08,200 Speaker 2: Which direction. 1542 01:12:08,520 --> 01:12:10,840 Speaker 1: I have a great tip for you, and it's something 1543 01:12:10,880 --> 01:12:15,479 Speaker 1: that I just finished yesterday. So it's a TV show. 1544 01:12:15,600 --> 01:12:17,920 Speaker 1: But here's the good news. Actually, i'd argue some ways 1545 01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:20,320 Speaker 1: the bad news. Most ways the bad news. It's only 1546 01:12:20,360 --> 01:12:21,960 Speaker 1: one season. In fact, they're not even calling it a 1547 01:12:22,000 --> 01:12:26,400 Speaker 1: TV show, they're only calling it a mini series. Netflix's 1548 01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:32,360 Speaker 1: the Queen's Gambit. Man, I cannot give this a higher recommendation. 1549 01:12:32,640 --> 01:12:38,400 Speaker 1: What an incredibly well made show. The basic premise is 1550 01:12:38,560 --> 01:12:42,840 Speaker 1: there is this girl woman who eventually becomes Her name 1551 01:12:42,880 --> 01:12:46,280 Speaker 1: is Beth Harmon, and she is an orphan who becomes 1552 01:12:46,360 --> 01:12:50,680 Speaker 1: a chess prodigy. It's only one season, it's only seven episodes, 1553 01:12:50,720 --> 01:12:52,439 Speaker 1: and that's it, so you can kind of get through 1554 01:12:52,439 --> 01:12:55,559 Speaker 1: it pretty quickly. Here is what makes it so special. 1555 01:12:56,840 --> 01:13:02,760 Speaker 1: It is the most detailed. Okay, let me back up 1556 01:13:02,760 --> 01:13:07,679 Speaker 1: a second here. I have not found a television character 1557 01:13:07,840 --> 01:13:12,080 Speaker 1: more interesting in terms of how interesting I found Beth 1558 01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,840 Speaker 1: Hormon since Walter White. I mean, by far. To me, 1559 01:13:15,960 --> 01:13:19,479 Speaker 1: she is just a fascinating character. And that's true because 1560 01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 1: of how she's written. It's also true by the way 1561 01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:25,200 Speaker 1: she's played by the various characters who player as she 1562 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:29,639 Speaker 1: grows up. Such a tremendous job. The way this thing 1563 01:13:29,720 --> 01:13:33,280 Speaker 1: is shot is spectacular. The person who was in charge 1564 01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:37,160 Speaker 1: of like costumes and clothing did an unbelievable job. B C. 1565 01:13:37,280 --> 01:13:42,080 Speaker 1: You'll appreciate this. The soundtrack is next level. I mean 1566 01:13:42,360 --> 01:13:45,519 Speaker 1: every detail on this thing in terms of how they 1567 01:13:45,520 --> 01:13:47,639 Speaker 1: did it is amazing. And now I know the basics 1568 01:13:47,680 --> 01:13:49,599 Speaker 1: of chess. I can play a little bit. I've been 1569 01:13:49,640 --> 01:13:52,479 Speaker 1: hustled in Washington Square Park. That's about the extent of 1570 01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:55,360 Speaker 1: my chest knowledge. Yet there was a guy who real quickly. 1571 01:13:55,360 --> 01:13:57,040 Speaker 1: There was a guy who was an international chess grand 1572 01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,400 Speaker 1: master who wrote for the New York Times, and in it, 1573 01:13:59,439 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 1: he says they hired Gary Kasparov and another high level 1574 01:14:04,200 --> 01:14:08,280 Speaker 1: chess player to design all the games. And what they 1575 01:14:08,280 --> 01:14:11,960 Speaker 1: did was they not only designed certain games and certain strategies, 1576 01:14:12,120 --> 01:14:16,519 Speaker 1: they actually took real games between real grandmasters like Spassky 1577 01:14:16,560 --> 01:14:19,080 Speaker 1: and Fisher, and they had the characters play it out. So, 1578 01:14:19,120 --> 01:14:21,559 Speaker 1: if you're a chess nerd, the way in which the 1579 01:14:21,640 --> 01:14:26,120 Speaker 1: chess looks is apparently super accurate because they're quite literally 1580 01:14:26,400 --> 01:14:29,800 Speaker 1: replaying some of the most famous games in history through 1581 01:14:29,840 --> 01:14:32,639 Speaker 1: the characters. Dude, let me tell you something. It's only 1582 01:14:32,680 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 1: seven episodes. Most are around forty minutes. Such a brilliant show. 1583 01:14:37,880 --> 01:14:42,200 Speaker 1: The side characters are amazing as well. Everyone's game was 1584 01:14:42,240 --> 01:14:44,720 Speaker 1: on a level this one could not give it a 1585 01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:48,800 Speaker 1: higher recommendation. If I tried go watch the Queen's Gambit. 1586 01:14:48,520 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 2: Wow, Luke, is it too smart for me? 1587 01:14:51,040 --> 01:14:53,760 Speaker 1: No? No, no, no, no no. They do what they're very 1588 01:14:53,840 --> 01:14:59,000 Speaker 1: good BC about making sure the chess was authentic and 1589 01:14:59,080 --> 01:15:01,720 Speaker 1: that you know they did they did, they did the 1590 01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:05,000 Speaker 1: game justice. But if you don't know, In fact, I 1591 01:15:05,000 --> 01:15:08,040 Speaker 1: would actually say it's almost better. Because my wife has 1592 01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:09,960 Speaker 1: never even played chess. I don't know how that's possible. 1593 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:12,679 Speaker 1: She's like a backgammin expert, but it's never played chess. 1594 01:15:13,160 --> 01:15:16,519 Speaker 2: And so whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa whoa. So you're what 1595 01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:19,120 Speaker 2: we've learned this week from your life chat. You're secretly 1596 01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:23,400 Speaker 2: a teenage racketball sensation and your wife's got to go 1597 01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:27,040 Speaker 2: a world ranked player, well not. 1598 01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:29,000 Speaker 1: World ranked, but she can hold her own. But the 1599 01:15:29,000 --> 01:15:31,040 Speaker 1: point being is she was worried at times she wasn't 1600 01:15:31,080 --> 01:15:33,280 Speaker 1: gonna be able to follow. They don't make you worry 1601 01:15:33,320 --> 01:15:35,719 Speaker 1: about that, but they bring you. They bring you into 1602 01:15:35,760 --> 01:15:40,080 Speaker 1: the game and the stresses of it without making you understand, 1603 01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:42,800 Speaker 1: you know, rook to G seven or whatever. They don't 1604 01:15:42,800 --> 01:15:44,680 Speaker 1: make you. They don't make you follow in that way, 1605 01:15:44,720 --> 01:15:49,840 Speaker 1: which is another amazing detail that they just somehow got right. Dude. 1606 01:15:49,880 --> 01:15:53,479 Speaker 1: I'm telling you everybody from the casting to the acting, 1607 01:15:53,560 --> 01:15:56,920 Speaker 1: to the production, to the direction, to the cinematography to 1608 01:15:57,000 --> 01:16:01,240 Speaker 1: the post production edit, dude, everybody, everybody did their best 1609 01:16:01,280 --> 01:16:04,240 Speaker 1: work on this. I'm sad that there's not more of it, 1610 01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:06,719 Speaker 1: but it's almost perfect because you get just those seven 1611 01:16:06,760 --> 01:16:09,040 Speaker 1: episodes and then no more. And I don't know who 1612 01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:12,240 Speaker 1: this actress is who played Beth Harmon, but she fucking 1613 01:16:12,520 --> 01:16:14,920 Speaker 1: kills it. And her and her people in her life 1614 01:16:14,960 --> 01:16:17,800 Speaker 1: who they cast it, they fucking kill it. It is 1615 01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:20,519 Speaker 1: such a good show. Go watch it. 1616 01:16:20,840 --> 01:16:22,360 Speaker 2: Did I Buila get downe with it too? 1617 01:16:22,720 --> 01:16:25,400 Speaker 1: She's in Colombia right now, so no, she didn't watch. 1618 01:16:25,960 --> 01:16:28,280 Speaker 2: Does Bobby Fisher in there? Does he say anti Semitic 1619 01:16:28,320 --> 01:16:30,600 Speaker 2: things about the Shaf's family uncomfortably? 1620 01:16:30,280 --> 01:16:34,120 Speaker 1: So they did manage to cut out of Fisher.
