We start with the excuse me, with the 170 00:07:19,080 --> 00:07:22,360 Speaker 2: main event, Cyril Gan getting the finish over tied to Vasa, 171 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 2: although ty herting Cyril Gon in a way that no 172 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 2: one else had to this point, what was your thoughts 173 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 2: about what happened in the main event. 174 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 4: First of all, what a freaking great piece of entertainment 175 00:07:33,160 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 4: that those two produced, the backdrop, the soundtrack of that 176 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 4: Paris crowd and the yearning of the French audience to 177 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 4: have a in person UFC event. You certainly felt that 178 00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 4: through the screen, just like you know London a couple 179 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 4: of cards before in this current run in the UK. 180 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 4: But look about Paris, about this fight. God needed this, Luke, 181 00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 4: he actually needed this. It's weird to say. Did he 182 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 4: need to get you know, knocked down and concussed in 183 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 4: the moment, which he admitted afterwards it wouldn't have been 184 00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 4: plan A. But here here's the thing, Luke, you and 185 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 4: I were talking ahead of this fight, and I like 186 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 4: on the broadcast that they ended up sharing Gon and 187 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 4: his team being open about some of his deficiencies, and 188 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 4: they settled upon this, maybe a lack of a killer instinct. 189 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:14,559 Speaker 4: Maybe at times he can be a point fighter because 190 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:17,640 Speaker 4: he has such great advantages. He can hit without being hit, 191 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 4: and it's easy to go that it ends up being 192 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 4: easy for him to a certain degree when he's going 193 00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,440 Speaker 4: downhill and he's controlling all the terms. We needed to 194 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,120 Speaker 4: see him a in a fight in which he wasn't 195 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 4: controlling the terms, and suddenly he wasn't when he was 196 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 4: knocked down. B I had some questions saying, look, we 197 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,319 Speaker 4: don't know if he has a backbone, good lord? Did 198 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: he answer that here? But I think you know even 199 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,599 Speaker 4: more than that, Luke, did he have pressure like I 200 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,680 Speaker 4: kind of teased and you poo pooed about maybe living 201 00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 4: up and playing for the for the French crowd. You 202 00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 4: could argue that given the historical precedent of the moment. 203 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 4: I think it was more about him absorbing the loss 204 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 4: against Anghano and what he didn't do, taking stock of 205 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 4: his game and again, never would have wanted to walk 206 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 4: into Twouvasa's punch and get hurt, but it ended up 207 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 4: playing into his hands where afterwards, after a brutal, violent, 208 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 4: spectacular finish of a guy who just won't go away 209 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,240 Speaker 4: and Tuivasa, when Gon speaks into the microphone at the 210 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 4: press conference, it basically says, hey, enough of this, John Jones, 211 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 4: talk how about me for the Angano rematch. He's actually 212 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 4: got an argument in this case because Luke he improved, 213 00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:23,360 Speaker 4: I don't want to say improved leaps and bounds, but 214 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 4: he changed the way we look at his potential ceiling 215 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 4: by answering some key questions we had because we just 216 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 4: hadn't seen him in these type of moments. You give 217 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 4: me a weird face, but we hadn't seen him have 218 00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:36,920 Speaker 4: to come back and prove his toughness. Boy did he 219 00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 4: show that here and how he answered and shook off 220 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:41,559 Speaker 4: the damage that he took, which seemed pretty legit from 221 00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 4: that one punch, But it was the intention of going 222 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 4: for the knockout. Now, look, you can easily argue that 223 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 4: knockout came more of Tuivasa making it happen by being 224 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:53,120 Speaker 4: all over him. Okay, that could be part of it. 225 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 4: But I think this was Gone trying to reverse his fortune, 226 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,880 Speaker 4: knowing how good he is and showing us that he 227 00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 4: can chase, go after and get the knockout if needed. 228 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 4: And I think I exit this fight with his stock 229 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 4: being so much higher for still being the potential long 230 00:10:10,600 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 4: term future and face of this division because I'm watching 231 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 4: him in the moment fill in some of the holes. Now, Look, 232 00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 4: he didn't go out and wrestle for five rounds, like 233 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 4: we don't really know if he has made gains in 234 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:24,280 Speaker 4: that area. But did this not answer those key questions 235 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 4: we had to coming in? Luke? I mean, I know 236 00:10:25,760 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 4: I predicted and Ghana would wrestle against gon Woodley would 237 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,199 Speaker 4: finish till I mean, I've been on a roll lately. 238 00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,640 Speaker 4: I kind of predicted we would see a little bit 239 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:37,720 Speaker 4: more offense don quite recently, and I didn't expect it 240 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 4: to be this great. I mean, Luke, that finishing shot 241 00:10:40,360 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 4: was hillatious. This is what he needs to do to 242 00:10:44,160 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 4: ultimately separate himself from the killers currently at top of 243 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,560 Speaker 4: this division. He just showed us he can do that. 244 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,280 Speaker 4: That's big to me. Dude, talk me off the serial 245 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 4: gone ledge that you helped build. 246 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: I'll tell you that if your argument is in rally 247 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 2: after uh tuy Vasa dropped him, that he showed something new, 248 00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,000 Speaker 2: I'll agree to that. I agree to that. I think 249 00:11:07,040 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 2: that's definitely true, But I don't really share your sense overall. 250 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 2: I mean, do I think he improved his standing with 251 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,679 Speaker 2: the fans by virtue of chasing the fight in the 252 00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 2: way that he did. Probably probably this one more is 253 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,440 Speaker 2: more memorable finishes. I think you could say that, right, 254 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 2: that's all fine and good. I think I would agree 255 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 2: with that, But you can actually make an argument that 256 00:11:24,400 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 2: his striking has a regressed and b in the central 257 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,640 Speaker 2: questions about what actually will hold him back from getting 258 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: the title. You didn't see anything tested here at all 259 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 2: at all, Like it had nothing here, had anything to 260 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: do with that. In fact, after this fight, Curtis Blaze 261 00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:41,000 Speaker 2: was like calling him out, and I don't think God 262 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 2: wants any part of it, which is understandable. He's ranked 263 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,800 Speaker 2: below him, he's already sitting number one contender spot. He 264 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 2: wants to leap frog John Jones Like, I get it, 265 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 2: but I'm going to go back to it before. Like, 266 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,839 Speaker 2: that's the real test to me, quite candidly, about what 267 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,520 Speaker 2: is lacking in sel CON's game. You're you're talking about 268 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 2: like he went forward, He went forward against the guy 269 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:02,680 Speaker 2: where he was a minus five hundred favorite. Play that 270 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,240 Speaker 2: against someone else who's much more dangerous, who has much 271 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 2: more levels of the game. Oh, don't don't do that. 272 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 4: Can I critically cross examine you, Luke? 273 00:12:10,000 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 2: Sure? 274 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 4: Okay, a few things here I had already hinted at 275 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,719 Speaker 4: the idea. No, we didn't end up learning certain ground advancements. 276 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 4: I will hedge that now I'm suddenly becoming Gon's biggest 277 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,600 Speaker 4: protector here. But I'll hedge that by saying he's only 278 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 4: a what four or five years into this game and 279 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:29,559 Speaker 4: is growing rapidly. He clearly answered the question about toughness 280 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,800 Speaker 4: and intention to me that I think you're you're overlooking 281 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:36,240 Speaker 4: too easily, Luke. He may have had finishes in the past. 282 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:38,520 Speaker 4: You know, Derek Lewis was a big one to get 283 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 4: the interim strap, but you know that was a Derek 284 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 4: Lewis that kind of imploded in front of us and 285 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,719 Speaker 4: ultimately seemed to get stopped by the volume of what 286 00:12:45,800 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 4: Gon does best. So while you're saying you thought Gon's striking, 287 00:12:49,760 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 4: what was the word he used? 288 00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 2: Regrets? You could make the argument from certainly from his 289 00:12:54,080 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 2: moy t I days. You could make the argument that 290 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:56,319 Speaker 2: is striking. 291 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:58,959 Speaker 4: Okay, But let's be fair, hair, did it regress from 292 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 4: the previous performance in which he was able to control 293 00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 4: the terms and completely and just dance and paint these 294 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,760 Speaker 4: guys up? Yes, but Luke, not every fight you're gonna 295 00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 4: be able to win like that, including what we just 296 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,079 Speaker 4: saw against Francis and Ganu. At this level, it's different. 297 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 4: So I think you have to look a little further, 298 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,839 Speaker 4: even if it was a regression in your eyes, in 299 00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 4: the damage he took on and the chances he took. 300 00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 4: You're gonna have to take those chances to finish these 301 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: killers at this level. I saw him show inability and 302 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 4: a want to do that, And I don't even like, 303 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,360 Speaker 4: even though I've been almost the biggest critic of Touivasa's 304 00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,240 Speaker 4: true upper bound limits, if you will, I almost feel 305 00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 4: like you're showing throwing unnecessary shade here by bringing up 306 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 4: the betting odds only because what did tui Vasa show 307 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 4: us in this fight one that he's the ultimate TV 308 00:13:45,840 --> 00:13:48,960 Speaker 4: fighter if we didn't already know it, but to Luke 309 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 4: that there is a deep rooted cyborg level of recuperative skills. 310 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 4: I mean, it's almost gay Chee like to keep coming 311 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 4: back until you make him go away, like Eddie Alvarez 312 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 4: and Stimporia originally did to that version of Gaichee where 313 00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 4: he to me, this was almost a moral victory for 314 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 4: Tuivasa in many ways, Luke. He showed that he can 315 00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:13,120 Speaker 4: do exactly what he does, which is caveman, you land 316 00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 4: one big strike and potentially change the fortunes of a 317 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 4: major fight. I never ever would have guessed he could 318 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 4: do that against somebody who could move like Gon, and 319 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,000 Speaker 4: he came out and did that. So not only do 320 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 4: I now have to readjust the limitations I'm putting on 321 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 4: Tuivasa in terms of who his style actually can work against, Luke, 322 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 4: it may be able to work to a certain degree 323 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 4: against everybody. I think you have to put some respect 324 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,720 Speaker 4: back on the real challenge that Gon faced. Because Tuivasa 325 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,160 Speaker 4: was able to land, was able to put on pressure, 326 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 4: was able to strike clean and then the fact that 327 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 4: Gon Dug Deep found his violent mode and got him 328 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 4: the fuck out of there. Dude, this was triumphant. You 329 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 4: got to get off your technical critical ass and just 330 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:55,440 Speaker 4: reward what we saw there. 331 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:59,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't really. I mean, it's a nice win, 332 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 2: nice win, but to me, like the thing that was 333 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:06,359 Speaker 2: holding him back was not that he had the inability 334 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 2: to the striking was some kind of issue that we 335 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,200 Speaker 2: really is not the problem. And to me, knocking out 336 00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,400 Speaker 2: a guy when you take more risks over a guy 337 00:15:15,440 --> 00:15:17,360 Speaker 2: you were you know, yes, he was heavily favored to win, 338 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 2: but just stylistically it's not a good matchup for tay 339 00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,800 Speaker 2: Tuyvasa anyway. I'm not saying it's easy to do. It's 340 00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 2: very difficult to do. I accept and recognize he took 341 00:15:27,840 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: risks to get there. But if we're talking about the 342 00:15:30,120 --> 00:15:33,200 Speaker 2: thing that held him back from the title, this didn't 343 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 2: give you any indication about any of it going forward. 344 00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 2: Which is going to say he hasn't addressed it BC, 345 00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:41,000 Speaker 2: That's not my argument either. I'm just saying the thing 346 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,120 Speaker 2: that held him back against francis that I think Well 347 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 2: could rear its uglyhead again if he fights a Jones, 348 00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 2: if he fights a Miocic, which is very speculative obviously, 349 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 2: but still those things are out there. Certainly, if he 350 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 2: fights the Curtis Blades, you didn't get any answer about 351 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,280 Speaker 2: that whatsoever. So like to me, it's like, oh, he 352 00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 2: was better than Tui Vasa's striking. He even had to 353 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 2: rally a little bit after getting hurt. That's that's noteworthy. 354 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 2: But that's not to me as significant a finding as 355 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: what we would have had had he gone up against 356 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 2: a guy like Curtis Blades, who would have given him 357 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:11,320 Speaker 2: so much better picture about what is actually possible. 358 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 4: This is a case of where you're not wrong, because 359 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,800 Speaker 4: again those are still unanswered questions. We saw him lose 360 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 4: to Francis because of ground game that's still in play 361 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,640 Speaker 4: for Blades. Yes, but Luke, you're telling me you saw 362 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 4: this same intention in him previously, that if he's got 363 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,080 Speaker 4: an opportunity to finish a guy, that he's willing to 364 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,160 Speaker 4: take on a little bit of risk and maybe even 365 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 4: damage to I just. 366 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 2: Don't I don't think. I don't think that's nearly as 367 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 2: interesting or as informative as you seem to find it. 368 00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:40,680 Speaker 4: Okay, so let's say he gets into another fight like 369 00:16:40,720 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 4: the Francis fight, in which his plan A, which is 370 00:16:43,360 --> 00:16:46,239 Speaker 4: essentially to point fight you from distance and just beautifully 371 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 4: outstrike you that gets taken away or compromised, either by 372 00:16:50,360 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 4: wrestling or by him being hurt. Now we know that 373 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 4: he can dig down into that place. Luke, you can't 374 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:57,480 Speaker 4: look at him and just say point fighter. I don't 375 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 4: see how you can look past the what that also 376 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,880 Speaker 4: says about him, Because Luke, think about it. 377 00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 2: Ghanempting accepting more risk against the guy you're much better 378 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 2: than is fun for exciting fights, But it doesn't tell 379 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 2: you all that much. You want it to mean a lot. 380 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 2: I don't think it means that much. 381 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 4: I don't think he can. I don't think the gone 382 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,520 Speaker 4: before this fight could beat Francis and Ghano with his 383 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 4: A game. I think if he's going to beat in 384 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 4: Ghana in the rematch, he's going to Yeah, he's gonna 385 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,960 Speaker 4: have to show a ground gain, yes, Luke, but he's 386 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:28,879 Speaker 4: gonna have to show that he can and is willing 387 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 4: to legitimately hurt and maybe stopping Ghanu or Jones or 388 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 4: Mio chicch. 389 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:37,080 Speaker 2: Look, this is what are the lacks in his is 390 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 2: significantly more hittable than any of the guys you mentioned. 391 00:17:40,720 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 4: But significantly more durable. 392 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 2: Luke, Yes, yeah, dude, Francis is durable as ship Bo's 393 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,159 Speaker 2: put a beating on him for twenty five minutes and 394 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:51,119 Speaker 2: couldn't put him away. Like this is what I mean. 395 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 2: It's like, oh, he opened up against the guy he 396 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:56,159 Speaker 2: had significant advantages over. Okay, that's not nothing. You know 397 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 2: what you're doing I have to do with any of 398 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:58,800 Speaker 2: these other fights. Nothing. 399 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,280 Speaker 4: You're being your dad right now. You like, oh, good job, son, 400 00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 4: you scored twenty points in the JV game. Fucking do 401 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:06,480 Speaker 4: it on varsity. Then, no, Luke, we learned something here, Okay, Luke, 402 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 4: we did. 403 00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:09,639 Speaker 2: We lied to Moss is a very tough challenge, but 404 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 2: opening up against him is not the same thing as 405 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,240 Speaker 2: opening up against any of these other guys. And to me, 406 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 2: doing it in your home crowd like that, like that 407 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 2: is impressive and important. I recognize that, but it's like, 408 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,119 Speaker 2: what did we learn about its potential upside? Very little? 409 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 2: So I a should say this, what do we learn 410 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 2: knew about it? Okay, he could rally from getting knocked down, 411 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 2: that I will give you. That was that was amazing, 412 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:35,360 Speaker 2: But in fact he even said after the fact that 413 00:18:35,400 --> 00:18:37,880 Speaker 2: someone asked him, Hey, who's a harderhead of Francis or Tye, 414 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,119 Speaker 2: and he said tie, but with the caveat that, like 415 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 2: Francis didn't hardly lay a glove on him. Do you 416 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:44,760 Speaker 2: think he's just gonna walk into the lions Den and 417 00:18:45,080 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 2: put himself at more risk where Francis can hit him. 418 00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: I don't believe. 419 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 4: But sometimes fights go there, Luke, And now we know 420 00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,639 Speaker 4: that he that he's comfortable there, Like, I can't believe 421 00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:55,680 Speaker 4: you're missing this, Luke. 422 00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:57,959 Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not missing it. You want me to 423 00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:00,639 Speaker 2: overstate its significance and I just don't want to do that. 424 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,760 Speaker 4: I want you to give the restaurant a five star 425 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:04,639 Speaker 4: Zagt rate And you're like, well, I don't really like 426 00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 4: the Napkins, you know. 427 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, I'm not saying that. It's a 428 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 2: fine performance and it was good for that market. The 429 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 2: French crowd was insane, which was great to see. And 430 00:19:13,680 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 2: to your point, again, he rallied after getting hit in 431 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 2: a way that I think would have unnerved a lot 432 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,280 Speaker 2: of other competitors. But as it relates to the guys 433 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 2: in front of him, that he has to fight to 434 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,520 Speaker 2: I think recapture what he hasn't to this point, I 435 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 2: don't know that that performance by itself tells us a 436 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 2: whole lot. That's my only position, however, BC, what I 437 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,639 Speaker 2: will say is what did you make of that comen 438 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 2: event Robert Whittaker defeating Marvin Vttori? And I gotta say, 439 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,160 Speaker 2: careful first round, fair enough, second round. You see Whittaker 440 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: start to pull away. Third round. I thought he hurt 441 00:19:42,400 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 2: Vittori with that headkick worse than I've ever seen anyone 442 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: hurt Vittori during his entire UFC run. Robert Whittaker looked 443 00:19:50,240 --> 00:19:52,040 Speaker 2: phenomenal in this contest. 444 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 4: True, did I not predict this exactly that Whittaker would 445 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,479 Speaker 4: dominate one sided but still win a three round decision. 446 00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:03,440 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not surprised, mother Effort. Whittaker is as 447 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,080 Speaker 4: he said, you know, aside from the champion, he's the 448 00:20:06,119 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 4: baddest dude in this division, and he even historically, Luke, 449 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 4: you know Anderson Silva middleweight goat for sure. But like 450 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,640 Speaker 4: this is why I want Whittaker and now to sign 451 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,639 Speaker 4: to end up in a trilogy, because Luke, these are 452 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 4: the these are the guys of this era. He is 453 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,400 Speaker 4: levels above his bit and he knew it. That's why 454 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 4: he wasn't rattled when Vittori tried to get in his face. Luke, 455 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 4: to me, even though people are saying like, holy crap, man, 456 00:20:27,640 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 4: Whittaker is still really damn good, except for those two 457 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 4: fights in which it was close but or you're not 458 00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 4: close in the first one. But except for out of 459 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 4: Sonya kind of having his number. I actually came away 460 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:41,000 Speaker 4: from here with the other side of it saying Vittori's 461 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:45,200 Speaker 4: got like legitimate questions to answer of him, to ask 462 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,399 Speaker 4: of himself in the mirror, because Luke, he's he's trying 463 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 4: against the elites to almost act not like a point fighter. 464 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 4: I mean, he's putting on pressure, but I don't see 465 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:59,879 Speaker 4: a delivery system in getting off the explosive nature of 466 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 4: his game. Like he's got an explosive personality. He comes 467 00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 4: in there, aggressive, he lives and dies by his chin. 468 00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:07,159 Speaker 4: He does have if he's able to take you down. 469 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 4: Whittaker is not going to be the type of guy 470 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 4: you can man handle, though he does obviously can get 471 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 4: you down. It can work the top game, but I 472 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,399 Speaker 4: almost feel like he's gonna have to look in the 473 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 4: mirror and ask himself, do I need to dumb down 474 00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 4: my style and my ambitions to try to be as 475 00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,399 Speaker 4: elite as these foes, And think, look, you know, if 476 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 4: I'm going to be in there for fifteen minutes with 477 00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:27,159 Speaker 4: a guy skills wise this much better than me and 478 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,680 Speaker 4: I'm not closing that gap, I gotta go for it. 479 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:32,960 Speaker 4: I gotta inflict damage. He's a big mother f for Luke, 480 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,800 Speaker 4: and he comes in there with an attitude, but I 481 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 4: don't see that translated into the way he tries to 482 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 4: get his offense off. I almost feel like somebody told 483 00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,879 Speaker 4: him he's at this level in terms of his skills 484 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 4: and his striking, and it's become now twice a harsh 485 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:49,360 Speaker 4: reminder that he isn't Luke. Am I being a total jerk? 486 00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 4: And this is about Whittaker's greatness. I mean, I still 487 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 4: think there's time for Vittori, but not this road, not 488 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 4: this way that he's doing it. 489 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,359 Speaker 2: I think we're mostly in agreement about Vittoria. Here's what 490 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 2: I said, and BCE tell me if you think this 491 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 2: is on or off, which was like, I don't know 492 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,840 Speaker 2: enough video games to know if this analogy is correct, 493 00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:10,199 Speaker 2: but if you were looking at the individual pieces of 494 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,359 Speaker 2: Vittore's game, you would rate each piece fairly high, right, Like, 495 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: how good is his striking. It's not the best in 496 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,200 Speaker 2: the division, but it's good. How's his wrestling, Again, far 497 00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 2: from the best in the division, but it's good. Cardio, actually, 498 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,800 Speaker 2: I would put that is very good. He trains very hard, physicality, 499 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 2: very good. But in terms of the skills of fighting, 500 00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:29,959 Speaker 2: jiu jitsu, wrestling, striking, all that kind of stuff, everything 501 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,639 Speaker 2: he does is good, but it's very conventional. It's just 502 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: it's stuck to the basics. He doesn't have the development 503 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 2: of any one particular skill that really gives him an 504 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 2: edge over his competitors. He has a decent rating in 505 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 2: all of the different parts of the game, but no 506 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,160 Speaker 2: ace in the hole, and even as he combines them all, 507 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 2: it just sort of combines to be a very conventional game. 508 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,880 Speaker 2: He goes for press doubles against the fence, he's sort 509 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 2: of jabbing and one twoing his way. Inside kicking is 510 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,680 Speaker 2: sort of, you know, leg kicking on the inside, a 511 00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,600 Speaker 2: little bit head kicking here on, and then that. There's 512 00:23:00,640 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: nothing super sophisticated. Sitting up. He does it like Charles Lavera. 513 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,479 Speaker 2: I've talked about this before. He didn't just add new 514 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 2: dimensions to his game, right, he actually dialed back to the 515 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 2: jiu jitsu a little bit to let the other parts 516 00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,520 Speaker 2: come to life. But he really, really, really really worked 517 00:23:13,520 --> 00:23:16,320 Speaker 2: on his skill development. It seems to me that still 518 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,560 Speaker 2: in his twenties, Marvin Vtori has the physical tools and 519 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: a good foundation. I do think he's got a good 520 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 2: foundation BC, But the thing I think that is missing 521 00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 2: for me is he just really hasn't had time or 522 00:23:27,560 --> 00:23:31,120 Speaker 2: he hasn't fully developed any particular part of the overall 523 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 2: MMA game, striking rest of whatever one he wanted to do, 524 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 2: which again would just really be a problem because he 525 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,239 Speaker 2: is so far ahead of his competitors with it. No, 526 00:23:41,280 --> 00:23:43,679 Speaker 2: he's a jack of all trades, master of none to 527 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:45,439 Speaker 2: a fault. I would argue, yeah, because you want to 528 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 2: be well balanced at MMA. But that's what's missing for me. 529 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,040 Speaker 4: That's a more polite way to say it. Yeah, for sure. 530 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 4: And look, it's like for somebody that tries to play 531 00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:56,639 Speaker 4: the jab encounter game with somebody like Whitaker, and you 532 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,919 Speaker 4: saw the results. He doesn't have the head movement or 533 00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,840 Speaker 4: defense to attempt that type of stretch. You know what 534 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 4: I'm saying, so there are sortin while he's fairly even 535 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 4: across the board and maybe lacking something spectacular, I think 536 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 4: the defensive hole against the elites is wide open in 537 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 4: that regard Luke, and luckily for him, he's so tough 538 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:16,640 Speaker 4: that he's able to hang in there. And but if 539 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 4: he's gonna be that tough and be willing to take 540 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 4: that level of punishment, I want to see him swinging 541 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 4: big on the other side and at least making it 542 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 4: more of a risk reward for his opponents on you know, 543 00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 4: walking him down and surgically picking him apart. Because I 544 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,800 Speaker 4: never felt like Whittaker was in any level of danger. 545 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 2: Yeah, but that's see when it comes to that though, 546 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 2: that to me, I give a credit to Whittaker, because 547 00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:41,360 Speaker 2: if you're Vittri, you can say, oh, go for it, 548 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:46,120 Speaker 2: but go for it like just you know, you're barely 549 00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:48,199 Speaker 2: moving about. Like the point. The problem is that he 550 00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:50,639 Speaker 2: can't find him, and when he tries to find him, 551 00:24:50,680 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 2: he misses, and then when he not only misses, he 552 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 2: gets countered big time. And he's trying to avoid that, 553 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 2: not in some kind of self preservation way, just in 554 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,240 Speaker 2: a this doesn't work kind of way. He could not 555 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:05,199 Speaker 2: find an actual way to put meaningful offense together. That 556 00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 2: is the result of having and he even said it 557 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 2: in Italian afterwards when they translated it, that was any 558 00:25:09,720 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 2: elite opponent he had, That's a very elite opponent. So 559 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 2: we see, let me ask you this question, bringing it 560 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,959 Speaker 2: back to Robert Whittaker. We've got Izzy ticking on padata 561 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 2: here in just a couple of months, not far from 562 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 2: where we are right now, and between us, as a 563 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 2: matter of fact, where does Robert Whittaker fit into that fight? 564 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,560 Speaker 2: Because if I is he wins, he might go to 565 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 2: two o five, but you could maybe do a third 566 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:31,919 Speaker 2: Robert Whittaker fight. I don't know if the champ wants it, 567 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,199 Speaker 2: but that's on the table. But if Preeda wins, are 568 00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 2: they going to give Izzy an automatic rematch because he's 569 00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 2: been undefeated for so long? And if so, where does 570 00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:40,560 Speaker 2: Whittaker go from there? How do you think he fits 571 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 2: into that picture? 572 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, this is a different situation than the same type 573 00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 4: of sort of bottleneck title picture discussions we have, and 574 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 4: it's you know, it's obviously rare for somebody to be 575 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 4: talking about getting the third fight with somebody they lost 576 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 4: twice to yet suddenly it feels like not as it 577 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 4: feels like we're talking about a lot more, you know 578 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 4: what I mean. We just saw Volkanovsky and Holloway, get it. 579 00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 4: We were talking about Joanna and Rose for a while, 580 00:26:00,560 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 4: Like it seems like we're now bringing this idea back 581 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:05,719 Speaker 4: into the fold. It makes more sense for Whittaker because 582 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:08,359 Speaker 4: he's of that ill not only a former champion, but 583 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,880 Speaker 4: he's showing you time and again the three fights between 584 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 4: the Atasnja losses and now this one that he's just 585 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:17,640 Speaker 4: short of that level. And what level am I talking 586 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 4: about Adasnya being on his way to being one of 587 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,080 Speaker 4: the greatest that level, Like he's just short of that 588 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,480 Speaker 4: to some, I mean he's in he's a great luke. 589 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:30,399 Speaker 4: So I personally again believe if Adasnya wins, there's really 590 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 4: and I don't think the UFC would have the leverage 591 00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 4: to make it. Like at least here's the deal, the 592 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 4: Max versus Volkanovski rivalry. At least there were a lot 593 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 4: of us, a lot of us saying in the second fight, man, 594 00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 4: I really thought Holloway won it. By the way, I 595 00:26:44,960 --> 00:26:47,480 Speaker 4: still think Whittaker won the second fight against ad Asanya 596 00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:50,879 Speaker 4: I just don't see that same push from the media 597 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 4: and fans, you know, as if that's actual currency to 598 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 4: the match making. Sometimes it is most likely it's not, 599 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 4: But I you know, maybe because Max is so beloved, 600 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:00,879 Speaker 4: there seemed to be more of a call for that 601 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:04,120 Speaker 4: third fight to sort of answer some question of did 602 00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,840 Speaker 4: we get it wrong? Where people aren't saying that about 603 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:09,560 Speaker 4: the Whittaker out Asnia rivalry. Maybe it's because the first 604 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,920 Speaker 4: fight ended a knockout, or maybe it's because people didn't 605 00:27:11,920 --> 00:27:14,639 Speaker 4: score it as close for Whittaker as I did. But 606 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,359 Speaker 4: I don't think aud Asanya has anything to gain by 607 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:18,879 Speaker 4: fighting him a third time, and I don't think the 608 00:27:19,000 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 4: UFC could really put the pressure onto leverage this. It 609 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:24,120 Speaker 4: would just make so much more sense, given how he's 610 00:27:24,160 --> 00:27:26,239 Speaker 4: cleaned out the division, for ad Asanya to move up 611 00:27:26,320 --> 00:27:28,680 Speaker 4: with a win. If he loses, Yes, we're gonna have 612 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 4: an interesting discussion. Is that the kind that needs an 613 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:34,280 Speaker 4: immediate rematch? Or could you see Whittaker instantly subbed in 614 00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 4: if I'm the promotion Luke, I do that? Why? Because 615 00:27:38,880 --> 00:27:40,760 Speaker 4: either way you're gonna get an at asnya rematch to 616 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 4: the title after that, right? 617 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:44,879 Speaker 2: Yep? You could do that, I mean, but it depends. 618 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 4: It depends. Okay, let's say put at A knocks. Let's 619 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:50,320 Speaker 4: say at Asnya controls for a round and a half 620 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,879 Speaker 4: and then gets knocked out. You kind of gotta go 621 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,679 Speaker 4: back to Attasnia at that point. Probably right, It's a. 622 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,280 Speaker 2: Little bit more if I think if you gets put out, 623 00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:01,960 Speaker 2: they might move on. Sounds crazy and probably maybe I'm wrong. 624 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:04,200 Speaker 2: It's hard to know exactly what they might do. Because 625 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:07,399 Speaker 2: here's the thing. If Izzy is now in a place 626 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,000 Speaker 2: where I can certainly recognize after his fight against Kennony 627 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:13,000 Speaker 2: or the fans are a little bit displeased with him, right, 628 00:28:13,359 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 2: and so there wouldn't this would there be a big 629 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:19,359 Speaker 2: push for Izzy to get a rematch in terms of 630 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,040 Speaker 2: the fans sentiment, the commercial appeal. I don't know about that. 631 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 2: I don't know, especially if he gets his lights put 632 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:28,159 Speaker 2: out completely. So it's hard to say exactly if he 633 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,880 Speaker 2: gets If he gets robbed or it's very close, then 634 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:31,960 Speaker 2: that might be different. 635 00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 4: But yeah, let's not forget doing as chef Chenko in 636 00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 4: this discussion as well of fights that went right one 637 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,400 Speaker 4: one way and now we're trying a third. But that 638 00:28:41,560 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 4: you know, let's say Patata wins, you know, by decision 639 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 4: and just kind of out out everything's him but doesn't 640 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 4: knock him out. Then you send Whitaker in there. Look okay, 641 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,680 Speaker 4: Then you get out of Sonya in a get well fight, 642 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:54,080 Speaker 4: and then you suddenly got out of Sonya versus either 643 00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 4: guy in a rematch that we must freaking see. So damn, 644 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,120 Speaker 4: Luke put some I mean, we gotta. I always he's 645 00:29:00,120 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 4: had respect on it, but I hope the world's putting 646 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:03,120 Speaker 4: some respect on the Reaper's name. 647 00:29:03,200 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 2: Luke. 648 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 4: I mean, just one of the most resilient, well rounded, 649 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 4: tough as shit, technically elite, not better than Anasania, has 650 00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 4: not proven that in two fights that he's better Luke, 651 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:16,479 Speaker 4: but one of the greats. We're watching it live in person. 652 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 4: One of the greats here, just a. 653 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 2: Guy who and you know, if you watch boxing, you 654 00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,480 Speaker 2: get you get a lot more of this. Obviously, it's 655 00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: a more limited form of striking in the sense of 656 00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 2: the options that it has. But you know, you see 657 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 2: a guy like Bud Crawford and he's got a lot 658 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 2: of different tools, but his timing I go back to 659 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:34,440 Speaker 2: his finish of Kel Brooke, and I know Kel, you know, 660 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 2: was certainly a diminished version of himself by the time 661 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 2: he fought Bud Crawford. But I go back to it. 662 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:42,000 Speaker 2: Look at the punch that Bud Crawford threw that sent 663 00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 2: him packing. It was I mean, he threaded the tiniest 664 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:48,600 Speaker 2: of needles. Robert Whitaker. I'm not saying he's got Bud 665 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 2: Crawford timing, but he has in terms of Mma striking, 666 00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 2: he has exquisite, exquisite timing, where he is also able 667 00:29:56,760 --> 00:29:59,280 Speaker 2: in a very similar, non identical kind of way to 668 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:01,840 Speaker 2: thread a very read difficult needed a thread with his timing. You, 669 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,800 Speaker 2: in fact, even heard the commentary TEAMBC talk about it. 670 00:30:04,800 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 2: It's not like he's got a ton of different weapons. 671 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,880 Speaker 2: He's not throwing all different kinds of shit. You just 672 00:30:08,880 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 2: can't keep up with it. It's just sort of a it's 673 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 2: a it's a relatively basic amount of options, but the 674 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 2: way in which he sets it up is so clever, 675 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,840 Speaker 2: so well timed, so disguised, so perfectly placed, that you 676 00:30:21,880 --> 00:30:25,719 Speaker 2: know you're just watching. You ever seen that the documentary 677 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 2: Jiro Dreams of Sushi. This dude who makes sushi in 678 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 2: the Tokyo Subway, He's just he doesn't make a ton 679 00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,800 Speaker 2: of different kinds of things. But what he does, the 680 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:36,479 Speaker 2: craftsmanship around it is super super high. That's Robert Whitaker 681 00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:36,720 Speaker 2: to me. 682 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, Luke. That's how I try to envision myself. 683 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:42,480 Speaker 4: I'm really not good at anything important in life, Luke, 684 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 4: but my ridiculousness is brilliant. 685 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 2: You look so pathetic with that sad beard. 686 00:30:49,720 --> 00:30:51,600 Speaker 4: Oh come on, I know that you're an insult my hat. 687 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 4: The beard hat, you know, high t combo, Luke, It's I. 688 00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 2: Mean, you know, is this the Brian Campbell? I haven't 689 00:30:58,560 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 2: showered this morning? Combo? 690 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 4: Fresh from the shower, Okay, fresh from the barbershop and 691 00:31:02,640 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 4: fly from the beauty slune. Yeah, believe me. You want 692 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 4: to know why Luke his basketball courts in the summer 693 00:31:06,880 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 4: got girls there? 694 00:31:07,680 --> 00:31:10,840 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I certainly do, and they're not looking for you. Last, 695 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 2: but not least, from the WEEKENDBC Ruiz Junior Andy Ruiz 696 00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 2: getting the job done against Luis Ortiz. Although it's kind 697 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 2: of funny, Andy Ruiz drops him three times and wins 698 00:31:22,080 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 2: a close, a close decision. How'd you see this fight 699 00:31:25,680 --> 00:31:26,360 Speaker 2: playing obviously? 700 00:31:26,440 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I saw it playing out kind of exactly as 701 00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 4: it did. Where Yeah, Ruiz the rightful winner when he 702 00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 4: counters and explodes the speed Luke, it's hard for everyweights 703 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:37,719 Speaker 4: to pick up. Rui's not known as a huge puncher, 704 00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,280 Speaker 4: but when he lands clean with these kind of counter 705 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:43,280 Speaker 4: shots that he's loading up, man, it does damage. But 706 00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 4: outside of those, man I kind of scored it like 707 00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 4: everybody else did. Six rounds to six would have been 708 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 4: a draw. And now that's easy to say. I thought 709 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:52,880 Speaker 4: Ortiz at forty three, and obviously some people believe he's 710 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 4: really fifty eight. Luke just fought his hard out, you 711 00:31:55,320 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 4: know what I mean. He's just not the same guy 712 00:31:56,920 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 4: as like, let's say, the first Wilder fight. But man, 713 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 4: does he exhaust every option to try to win, whether 714 00:32:02,840 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 4: it's trying to rally in the twelfth or just boxing 715 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,920 Speaker 4: a really smart fight. It's interesting. Ruiza is still, you know, 716 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:15,200 Speaker 4: heavily flawed and a bit overrated and underrated at the 717 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 4: same time, meaning he's not gonna be you know, outclassed 718 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 4: and destroyed by the elites. But if he's gonna beat them, 719 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:24,040 Speaker 4: I wonder if he's got to continue to kind of 720 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:25,880 Speaker 4: you know, find that spot in the death star like 721 00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:27,920 Speaker 4: he did when he upset aj in the first one. 722 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,000 Speaker 4: I don't see him throwing enough punches. He wasn't in 723 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 4: the same shape that he was last fight against Ariola, 724 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 4: which he was with Canelo's trainer. They put on some 725 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 4: weights and then third trainer in three consecutive fights, and 726 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 4: it was like there was a lot of good to 727 00:32:41,360 --> 00:32:43,520 Speaker 4: like what I love him against Deontay Wilder if he 728 00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 4: gets best Llennious, Hell yeah, dude. That is a fan 729 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 4: friendly yet still important for the title picture heavyweight fight. 730 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 4: That's like slam dunk pay per view. Make it, we'll 731 00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 4: buy it, We'll enjoy it. But he fights in somewhat 732 00:32:58,000 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 4: of an all or nothing way because he's just not 733 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 4: busy enough. Like this was not convincing, and you know 734 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 4: it's clear because of the knockdowns, but he takes too 735 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:08,640 Speaker 4: much time off, doesn't commit to getting in shape. Luke, 736 00:33:08,680 --> 00:33:10,560 Speaker 4: he could be and we've been saying this about his 737 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 4: career by the way back, you know, a decade ago. 738 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,600 Speaker 4: He could be really good if he can put it 739 00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 4: all together. He put it all together for one night 740 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 4: in sort of a perfect storm of circumstances, but still 741 00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:25,720 Speaker 4: not like all the way there to what I believe 742 00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:27,960 Speaker 4: getting the most out of himself. I don't think you 743 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 4: can disagree with that. 744 00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 2: I don't think I disagree with that at all. And 745 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,560 Speaker 2: in fact, I gotta say, like, I know that there 746 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,320 Speaker 2: was a narrative about how hard he had trained. Did 747 00:33:36,360 --> 00:33:39,719 Speaker 2: he look like way more in shape to you? I 748 00:33:39,760 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 2: don't know that he looked as in shape as I 749 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 2: was expecting. 750 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:45,360 Speaker 4: We got full of those those those poses he did 751 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 4: in that Fox you know pr video that was put out, 752 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 4: that sizzle reel. You could see the abs, but he's 753 00:33:50,520 --> 00:33:54,000 Speaker 4: also bending forward and flexing when he stands up straight. 754 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 4: This is the same size he. 755 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 2: Was first the first first Joshua first. 756 00:33:59,320 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 4: Joshua fight, which same exact way, right, So maybe he's 757 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,680 Speaker 4: a little bit more tone. But like once he walked 758 00:34:04,680 --> 00:34:06,360 Speaker 4: down the ring, I was like, oh, I was fooled 759 00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:08,040 Speaker 4: by that video. He's this is not the same guy. 760 00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:09,759 Speaker 4: I mean if even in the way in he looked good. 761 00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,560 Speaker 4: But you know, he might have been cutting, you know 762 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,359 Speaker 4: a little bit at the you know, to sometimes heavy 763 00:34:14,360 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 4: weight to look the last two days, they'll cut a 764 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:17,880 Speaker 4: little bit and then put it on, put it back on. 765 00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 4: But no, man, if he could look it's a different story. 766 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 4: If he gets in shape. Now, look, he still got 767 00:34:22,920 --> 00:34:25,760 Speaker 4: dropped by Ariola, who was, you know, to some degree, 768 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:27,600 Speaker 4: a walking corpse. Although I'll give him a Joe Goosen 769 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 4: credit for that performance. But if he's not going to 770 00:34:31,040 --> 00:34:33,440 Speaker 4: commit to that shape, he can't win against the elite. 771 00:34:33,480 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 4: I don't think he can, Luke. 772 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 2: You know, like I agree, I agree, he needs to 773 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 2: be in better shape. Although I will say BC his 774 00:34:38,520 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 2: tattoos were good. They were very good. The black people, right, 775 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:44,319 Speaker 2: they were great, especially his assass. 776 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,160 Speaker 4: I mean, I like the Jesus tat and the cross 777 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 4: is on the side, you know, but his his tats 778 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:50,839 Speaker 4: are They're not my style, Luke. I mean I've seen 779 00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:53,560 Speaker 4: his ass and I look, I really seriously, you know, 780 00:34:53,600 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 4: I look at I look at the watermelon vape as 781 00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 4: a as a playful character flaw. You know you're outside 782 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,160 Speaker 4: of that. You got strong morals, you're great teammate, but 783 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,560 Speaker 4: you know your love of Astats is just along with 784 00:35:04,719 --> 00:35:07,239 Speaker 4: death metal is just I just don't I don't think 785 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,120 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be able to understand it. Will it be 786 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 4: enough to break us apart? I don't think so, Luke. 787 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,640 Speaker 4: But you know, if I have to stand on that 788 00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 4: mountain alone, I will, But how do you know as 789 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,000 Speaker 4: for you and your house, how do you stand by this, 790 00:35:19,000 --> 00:35:21,560 Speaker 4: this belief that not only do you like the look, 791 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 4: but you you want and need your own ass cheeks 792 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 4: to have a man with a needle up right around 793 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,800 Speaker 4: the rim luke right like you're like you're a spudweb 794 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:33,120 Speaker 4: at the eighty six done contest, just barely over that 795 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,560 Speaker 4: rim luke. I don't, I don't. I don't see it. 796 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:37,719 Speaker 4: I don't get it. In fact, I think there's something 797 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 4: wrong with you. 798 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, but you have a lot of stupid ideas. 799 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 4: Okay, that's Dana White level defecting, the deflecting. Okay, so 800 00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:46,560 Speaker 4: what do you got here? 801 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,000 Speaker 2: What do you got to do? Why would you want 802 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 2: a beautiful tattoo covering parts of your body? I don't know. 803 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 2: There's probably a lot of good reasons. It wouldn't be 804 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 2: for everybody. 805 00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, but dude, this isn't like a heart on your 806 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 4: ass cheek. This is the inner lining, This is grundle, 807 00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 4: This is like the full you know. 808 00:36:02,040 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I don't know exactly how exactly how 809 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:07,320 Speaker 2: far Andy Ruiz went, But again, I've talked about this before. 810 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 2: Covering these parts of your body have both historical significance, 811 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,759 Speaker 2: and they have artistic significance for scale of what you're 812 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 2: trying to do, Like just getting it above your belt 813 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 2: line can look really weird, and so getting it let's 814 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,239 Speaker 2: stay here, doesn't historical significance. 815 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 4: What are we talking about to tribute to the warriors 816 00:36:23,640 --> 00:36:24,720 Speaker 4: of of what culture? 817 00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 2: The way? The way? The There's different kinds of body 818 00:36:28,520 --> 00:36:30,759 Speaker 2: suits you can get, but there there are some of 819 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:35,560 Speaker 2: the original tattooing around Japanese style getting the full body suits. 820 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,400 Speaker 2: This goes back centuries. I mean, it's not something that 821 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:43,040 Speaker 2: they just decided was fun. There's a historical play into it. Again, 822 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:44,960 Speaker 2: it's not for everyone. But like the idea that it's 823 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 2: like automatically stupid or something is kind of bizarre. 824 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:50,360 Speaker 4: I don't quite no, Okay, okay, I'm not going to 825 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:51,799 Speaker 4: be ignorant on that. You see a lot like in 826 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 4: the Polynesian culture, tattoos are a direct right Tasa. 827 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,720 Speaker 2: I'm imagining he's got one as well. 828 00:36:58,040 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, all right, all right, well, look, okay, Luke, it's 829 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 4: fucking weird. Okay, I'm sorry it is at the end 830 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 4: of the day. All right, thank you very much, thank you. 831 00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,800 Speaker 4: All right, all right, Well to look quickly quickly Cruz 832 00:37:08,280 --> 00:37:10,319 Speaker 4: blew away that dude in the cole Man event called 833 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:13,960 Speaker 4: out Tank. You saw Gervante shake his head at the 834 00:37:14,040 --> 00:37:16,319 Speaker 4: very least. Cruz deserves a huge name, Luke. I mean, 835 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,120 Speaker 4: this is a good this is a really good performance. 836 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, he dusted the guy often too. By the way, 837 00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:22,960 Speaker 2: it's that that video was trending on YouTube as well. 838 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: The number one video though was Nate Diaz and his 839 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,000 Speaker 2: interview that he had. But yes, I agree that Esak 840 00:37:29,040 --> 00:37:31,640 Speaker 2: Cruz looked unbelievable, but there's really no interest in a 841 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 2: fight with Gravant. 842 00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 4: Now, I don't I don't see it. And also Abner 843 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:38,480 Speaker 4: Marris came back after that long layoff, looked good early, 844 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 4: fought his way to a draw against Miguel Flores. I 845 00:37:41,480 --> 00:37:43,040 Speaker 4: don't know what he's going to do from here, Luke, 846 00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:45,160 Speaker 4: But if if just getting back here and doing that 847 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 4: was what he needed to scratch the itch, there were 848 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 4: there were a lot. There's a lot to like in 849 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,040 Speaker 4: that performance, even though he faded like there was all. 850 00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 2: Right, Well, let's go to topic number two. So, as 851 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:55,279 Speaker 2: I mentioned, that is actually currently in the United States, 852 00:37:55,360 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 2: the number one trending video on YouTube, which is Nate 853 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:01,279 Speaker 2: dis spoke to our colleague brettal Komode of ESPN and 854 00:38:01,440 --> 00:38:03,399 Speaker 2: raise a number of issues. Now. By the way, BC, 855 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:06,240 Speaker 2: as it stands at the moment, we have hamsat Chamaia 856 00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 2: at roughly a minus one thousand or so favorite, Nate 857 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 2: Diaz is a plus seven hundred underdog. Diaz talked about 858 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 2: taking this fight and putting over Hamzat so to speak. Quote. 859 00:38:19,680 --> 00:38:21,920 Speaker 2: What they've got me doing right now is they're acting 860 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,839 Speaker 2: like I called for this fight, which I didn't call 861 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 2: for and don't want and didn't want and still don't want. 862 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:29,160 Speaker 2: But I don't give an f I'll fight anybody. But 863 00:38:29,200 --> 00:38:31,439 Speaker 2: the pressure's on him. He better finish me because he's 864 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:34,120 Speaker 2: the next killer in town. And if I whip his ass, 865 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 2: they're gonna say, oh, he wasn't the best in town. 866 00:38:36,160 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 2: But they're not going to let me go. I asked 867 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 2: for twenty fights, ten fights, fifteen fights. This fight is 868 00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:44,360 Speaker 2: not even about this guy. It's about the making of 869 00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 2: this guy. It's about the making of this mfor And 870 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:48,840 Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, well, you guys aren't gonna let me 871 00:38:48,880 --> 00:38:50,920 Speaker 2: go because I'm the best fighter here and you're not 872 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,840 Speaker 2: going to let me go unless it's off of somebody. 873 00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 2: I've got to make somebody for you. All Right, you're welcome. 874 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 2: Let's make this guy. You're welcome. Dubai, you're welcome. All 875 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:00,759 Speaker 2: you mfers, you're welcome. This is just my halftime show. 876 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:03,800 Speaker 2: I'm just getting started now. BC. It's kind of weird 877 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 2: that Diaz would say that he didn't want this fight, 878 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,960 Speaker 2: when in fact I was told that he had specifically 879 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 2: requested it. I spoke to some folks close to Diaz 880 00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:16,520 Speaker 2: yesterday about these comments, and what they basically told me 881 00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 2: was and you heard him talk about it, so this 882 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:20,880 Speaker 2: one want to pitch to you. He did, in fact 883 00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,640 Speaker 2: ask for the chandlers for the Ferguson, so, by the ways, 884 00:39:23,680 --> 00:39:25,640 Speaker 2: on this card as well, they couldn't do that for 885 00:39:25,719 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 2: whatever reason. I don't know what the story is there, 886 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:32,160 Speaker 2: the Pirias, you named, the Lucas, you name it. They 887 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 2: wouldn't give him that. And apparently what ended up happening 888 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 2: was that Nate was like, well, I got to do 889 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:39,719 Speaker 2: something for them in order for them to give me 890 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:42,359 Speaker 2: a fight at a reasonable time. So he just thought, 891 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 2: who's the toughest, craziest guy that the UFC has that 892 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 2: they want to promote let's just call him out. They 893 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 2: called UFC up and said that they this is what 894 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:52,200 Speaker 2: they wanted, and then they ended up getting it. I 895 00:39:52,239 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 2: think I don't know what the UFC was anticipating at 896 00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,680 Speaker 2: that point, but they seem to like the idea. So 897 00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:58,719 Speaker 2: it's a bit of both. Right, he didn't want it, 898 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 2: but I think forced into it. He took it. What 899 00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:03,400 Speaker 2: do you make of forced into it? What do you 900 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,719 Speaker 2: make of these comments from n dis. 901 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 4: Yeah, we got more of these comments to get into specifically, 902 00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:10,800 Speaker 4: but I'll start generically. And that was I think the 903 00:40:10,880 --> 00:40:13,400 Speaker 4: juiciest nugget of him revealing in that comment to Brett, 904 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 4: who's not our colleague, Luke is my former colleague though. 905 00:40:16,200 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 2: Well MMA media colleague, maybe. 906 00:40:18,200 --> 00:40:21,160 Speaker 4: My colleague under Joanna's you know, gauging of the best 907 00:40:21,160 --> 00:40:22,399 Speaker 4: looking journalist in mixed Martin. 908 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 2: I think you want to bang him more than Yoana does. 909 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 2: I truly believe that. 910 00:40:26,200 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 4: Oh wow, wow, I mean you know, I mean, Brett, 911 00:40:29,239 --> 00:40:30,960 Speaker 4: you don't have to wear the tightest dress shirts and 912 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 4: then like lean back on the couch for these you 913 00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 4: know what I mean? 914 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:33,319 Speaker 5: Guy? 915 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,480 Speaker 4: Okay, you know, yeah, there you go. All right, Luke, 916 00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:39,839 Speaker 4: let's talk here. The narrative UFC's putting out on this 917 00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:43,960 Speaker 4: fight is that the old legend against the young riser, 918 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,840 Speaker 4: and the old legend once again wants to kill the 919 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 4: hype of the UFC's next like made man like you 920 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,880 Speaker 4: did against Connor. But the reality that we've been painting 921 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,200 Speaker 4: leading up to this interview, and the reason why I 922 00:40:56,200 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 4: put so much onus on this interview, is because outside 923 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:01,400 Speaker 4: of the quotes he gave UFC contown, I don't think 924 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:03,560 Speaker 4: Nates talk to anybody else before this, So this is 925 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,080 Speaker 4: really like the first right to he. 926 00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:07,080 Speaker 2: Booked to Ariel. He did a long interview with Ariel 927 00:41:07,080 --> 00:41:08,600 Speaker 2: a few weeks ago, Right, a few weeks ago. 928 00:41:08,640 --> 00:41:12,279 Speaker 4: Okay, I'd have to revisit that apology, Sterel. I must 929 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:14,359 Speaker 4: have must have forgot that. But here's the deal, Luke. 930 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 4: The narrative we painted was, you know, oh dirty UFC. 931 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:20,479 Speaker 4: This guy's been trying to get out of his deal 932 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:23,080 Speaker 4: by forcing you to give him a fight for a year. 933 00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 4: Read what didn't he fight Edwards in April of twenty 934 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 4: twenty one. You go back over his Twitter profile. It's 935 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:31,759 Speaker 4: just constant, give me this fight. I want Chandler, give me, 936 00:41:31,800 --> 00:41:35,560 Speaker 4: anybody cut me do whatever. So they're feeding him to 937 00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 4: the largest lye to damage his brand and give hams 938 00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 4: out his fans on the way out. And that is 939 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:45,680 Speaker 4: the narrative we all stuck with. Although Nate's comments here 940 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:48,520 Speaker 4: saying I didn't ask for it, dude, UFC's you know, 941 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:50,919 Speaker 4: telling every essentially lying and telling everybody that I did, 942 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:56,359 Speaker 4: tends to double down on that narrative. Watching this as 943 00:41:56,400 --> 00:41:58,560 Speaker 4: a whole, Luke, And look, I mean it's a Diaz 944 00:41:58,600 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 4: brother interview, so meaning face value, you can watch it 945 00:42:01,760 --> 00:42:05,120 Speaker 4: and not figure out if he's like the street hero 946 00:42:05,480 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 4: or he's just crazy and ignorant, Like he can contradict 947 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 4: himself every other sentence, and there's a major contradiction coming up. 948 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:15,080 Speaker 4: But in this quote that we're gonna go to. But 949 00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 4: I'm like, wait, is Nate actually the victim here? Luke? 950 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,799 Speaker 4: Is he a hack? I mean, I know, like his 951 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:24,440 Speaker 4: story should be the poster story right now in this 952 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,080 Speaker 4: in this narrative window here of like fighter pay being 953 00:42:27,120 --> 00:42:30,400 Speaker 4: a constant topic. We did the resume review, which I 954 00:42:30,440 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 4: hope people are checking out on YouTube dot com Slash 955 00:42:32,560 --> 00:42:35,480 Speaker 4: Morning Combat of Nate's great career, and we specifically fight 956 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:38,000 Speaker 4: by fight leading up to the two Connor fights, and 957 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:39,920 Speaker 4: the call out after the Michael Johnson fight was just 958 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 4: like unbelievably low base salary thirty, you know, thirty to 959 00:42:44,880 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 4: show no bonus or whatever it was. Yet he's main 960 00:42:47,280 --> 00:42:49,719 Speaker 4: eventing in a title fight on Fox in front of 961 00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,240 Speaker 4: three and a half million people, you know, time and again. 962 00:42:52,880 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 4: So I've always looked at him as like this victim 963 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 4: and they're holding him back and this fight is about 964 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 4: him giving the ultimate fu. But I'm serious, after this interview, 965 00:43:01,680 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 4: I'm not sure how much of it is him just 966 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:07,280 Speaker 4: being in his own way. Like, look, let's be really 967 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:11,919 Speaker 4: blunt here about Nate Diaz, Okay, is it that he's 968 00:43:12,000 --> 00:43:17,040 Speaker 4: so true to like his natural default beliefs, which is 969 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:21,640 Speaker 4: like you know, street tawt a gangster way, or are 970 00:43:21,680 --> 00:43:24,080 Speaker 4: all these comments that fill this interview about him being 971 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 4: the greatest fighter of all time and you know, almost 972 00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:28,320 Speaker 4: been doing a chill sun and bit that he's never lost. 973 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:33,799 Speaker 4: Is he a little disillusioned and ignorant? Like because when 974 00:43:33,840 --> 00:43:36,239 Speaker 4: you see all these awful contracts getting signed, and I know, 975 00:43:36,360 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 4: you know, history will tell you he had a frontloaded, 976 00:43:38,160 --> 00:43:40,440 Speaker 4: tough deal coming into the UFC in two thousand and seven, 977 00:43:40,520 --> 00:43:43,080 Speaker 4: that did him no favors in the long run, but 978 00:43:43,120 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 4: they're also negotiating and signing. I think UFC did him 979 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,080 Speaker 4: dirty by making him wait here so he didn't fight 980 00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:51,160 Speaker 4: Jake Paul. But I'm not sure he's always his best 981 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 4: advocate based on all of these quotes in this interview 982 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:57,239 Speaker 4: and really his history and interviews is this. Is he 983 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,480 Speaker 4: just so Street Luke that that's what happens or is 984 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:01,360 Speaker 4: there something to that. 985 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 2: I'm not sure I understand the full nature of your complaint, 986 00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:07,120 Speaker 2: because well, let me let me say how I see it, 987 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:09,080 Speaker 2: and you tell me what parts I'm either right or 988 00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:13,120 Speaker 2: wrong on listen, I don't imagine that any fighter dealing 989 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:16,720 Speaker 2: with the UFC is always right, not no one person. 990 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:20,120 Speaker 2: What they say is biblical. No one person's perspective always 991 00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:24,000 Speaker 2: and in every way has to be acknowledged or you know, respected. 992 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 2: I suppose it as a sort of a baseline, but 993 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:28,879 Speaker 2: agreed upon right, Everyone's got their own vision for themselves. 994 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 2: And so I'm not going to sit here and present 995 00:44:31,040 --> 00:44:33,680 Speaker 2: a case that the Diaz brothers, Nate or Nick, in 996 00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:38,279 Speaker 2: their individual dealings with the UFC, have always been you 997 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 2: know above reproach that they've never been they've never done 998 00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:43,920 Speaker 2: anything wrong. I don't imagine that that's the case for anybody, 999 00:44:43,920 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 2: including them. However, what I would say is, again, going 1000 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 2: through the resume review, we saw all those cases where 1001 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,279 Speaker 2: he had, you know, constantly to fight someone else's backyard, 1002 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 2: constantly fighting for certainly in that sort of middle third 1003 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:02,799 Speaker 2: part of his career ish space, I should say, yeah, 1004 00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:06,400 Speaker 2: around us sort of the second and third part of 1005 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 2: his career with that intersection moment. But in any case, 1006 00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,719 Speaker 2: we're fighting for low purses in this particular moment, BC, 1007 00:45:11,960 --> 00:45:15,520 Speaker 2: I don't really agree that Nate has a whole lot 1008 00:45:15,560 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 2: to atone for, only because it wasn't like he was saying, No, 1009 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:21,960 Speaker 2: wasn't the three years he had taken off. He was 1010 00:45:22,000 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 2: trying to fight, and he wasn't trying to fight somebody 1011 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:26,799 Speaker 2: without a name or someone in some kind of Yes, 1012 00:45:26,840 --> 00:45:28,799 Speaker 2: I know that he mentioned Francis san Gandu, but that 1013 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:32,279 Speaker 2: was my understanding is that's a function of frustration from 1014 00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:34,880 Speaker 2: not getting the other relevant fights. I mean, consider the 1015 00:45:34,960 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 2: UFC already put together a fight between Diaz and Poria 1016 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,759 Speaker 2: that had fallen apart for other reasons. And again, if 1017 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:41,120 Speaker 2: you want to put some blame on Nate for that, 1018 00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,719 Speaker 2: you may do so, but here he is trying to 1019 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 2: find it again there was interest on the poorier side. 1020 00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:48,680 Speaker 2: They didn't do it Chandler, same thing Ferguson. Whatever the 1021 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:50,840 Speaker 2: reason was for that, I don't know. It wasn't like 1022 00:45:50,840 --> 00:45:53,360 Speaker 2: he was trying to avoid tough or otherwise meaningful fights. 1023 00:45:53,719 --> 00:45:55,919 Speaker 2: The argument that he is making is what you want 1024 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 2: me to do is give my star power up to 1025 00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 2: lift someone else up, which we kind of know is 1026 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:01,560 Speaker 2: a little bit how the fight game works, which he 1027 00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:04,399 Speaker 2: relented to it. But you know, keeping a guy under 1028 00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,040 Speaker 2: contract extra time not agreeing to fights even though he 1029 00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 2: wants big name contenders that would certainly have been valuable 1030 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,279 Speaker 2: or otherwise you know, the Fambase would have accepted. I 1031 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 2: don't understand it personally. Again again, help me mis understand 1032 00:46:17,200 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 2: what I'm missing about that is so unforgivable. 1033 00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:26,240 Speaker 4: Here's the quotes that are fueling my new question about 1034 00:46:26,280 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 4: this situation. And look, I'm going on record. I've been 1035 00:46:28,480 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 4: on record. They did him dirty here by making him wait. 1036 00:46:31,560 --> 00:46:33,799 Speaker 4: He was willing to fight anybody Luke. So now he's 1037 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:35,960 Speaker 4: finally trying to fight their guy, and they even delayed that. 1038 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 4: But here are the quotes that kind of blew up 1039 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 4: the internet, taking out of context from this interview. I'm 1040 00:46:41,040 --> 00:46:43,879 Speaker 4: on Dana White's side too, Diaz said, it's all love. 1041 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:45,960 Speaker 4: I understand business, so it's all good with me. Me 1042 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 4: and Dana always got along about everything too. And I'm 1043 00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 4: not fucking inking real fighting, which is his new combat 1044 00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 4: sports promotion he announced yesterday. We can get to that 1045 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:57,759 Speaker 4: in a second. Because I'm against anybody. I'm not going 1046 00:46:57,760 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 4: anywhere or doing anything. I have no plan for what 1047 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,640 Speaker 4: my next move is. If something happens in this fight, 1048 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,480 Speaker 4: I might just have to re sign to get a rematch. 1049 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,640 Speaker 4: If I don't whip this motherfucker's ask now, then come 1050 00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:11,120 Speaker 4: on regardless of what happens though, and say I leave 1051 00:47:11,200 --> 00:47:13,440 Speaker 4: or do whatever. The best fighters are in the UFC 1052 00:47:13,800 --> 00:47:15,480 Speaker 4: and have been in the UFC for a long time 1053 00:47:15,520 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 4: and will be for a long time. I'm sure it 1054 00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:19,760 Speaker 4: doesn't mean the realest shit is happening in the UFC, 1055 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:23,160 Speaker 4: But no matter what I do, I'm gonna be in 1056 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 4: the UFC. End quote. Am I pulling that out of 1057 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:30,839 Speaker 4: context and putting meanings on it that it doesn't I'm 1058 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,759 Speaker 4: not saying he has to pre fight. Tell Dana White 1059 00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 4: to f off. But if our narrative Luke is that 1060 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 4: he's been done wrong, he essentially just said I got 1061 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 4: no issue with Dana White again. I'm not saying he 1062 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:42,839 Speaker 4: has to, but he's essentially saying, you know, and if 1063 00:47:42,840 --> 00:47:45,680 Speaker 4: this fight's good, maybe we'll do it again, and you know, 1064 00:47:45,800 --> 00:47:49,680 Speaker 4: I'm gonna be here forever. Look, he might just be 1065 00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:51,600 Speaker 4: trying to protect a bridge and not burn it. And 1066 00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:53,880 Speaker 4: maybe Dana in company are doing the same by talking 1067 00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 4: so nice last night in the press conference about him. 1068 00:47:56,320 --> 00:48:00,600 Speaker 4: But Luke, this does not line up with his counterculture actions. 1069 00:48:00,600 --> 00:48:03,640 Speaker 4: Are his you know, anti hero ways or even the 1070 00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:06,640 Speaker 4: poster boy of like got left Over and deserve Better? 1071 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 4: This is him saying, you know, yeah, it's actually not 1072 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 4: that bad. I'll go back to the abuser too if necessary. 1073 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:14,080 Speaker 4: Am I being too harshare Luke? That's that doesn't fit 1074 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,399 Speaker 4: the persona that he's lived and died on to get 1075 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:17,040 Speaker 4: to this point. 1076 00:48:17,840 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 2: I mean, I understand it does seem somewhat contradictory. On 1077 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:23,480 Speaker 2: the other hand, part of the way I look at 1078 00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 2: it is if you and you alluded to it, if 1079 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,320 Speaker 2: you just look at the way Dana White is talking 1080 00:48:27,320 --> 00:48:31,720 Speaker 2: about Diaz now boy, they are showering him with praise 1081 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 2: this week, and if you look at the countdown, I 1082 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 2: thought they made him look good on that. And again, 1083 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:39,880 Speaker 2: why is everyone? Why is there this komitee all of 1084 00:48:39,880 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 2: a sudden last minute, It is very strange. I get 1085 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,799 Speaker 2: the sense that I don't think a UFC return is 1086 00:48:45,840 --> 00:48:48,560 Speaker 2: on the table, certainly right now, but I get the 1087 00:48:48,600 --> 00:48:50,920 Speaker 2: sense based on what Diaz is saying and what Dana 1088 00:48:51,000 --> 00:48:53,760 Speaker 2: is saying, that that's not off the table completely either. 1089 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,560 Speaker 2: So it seems like they if they can retain his 1090 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 2: services under some position, they will. Though again my best 1091 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,880 Speaker 2: guess is that date excuse me dumb, that Nate is 1092 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,040 Speaker 2: going to seek free agency. But I don't know, man, Like, 1093 00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:07,040 Speaker 2: if you're thirty seven years old, you're at the end 1094 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 2: of your contract, you're gonna be getting out. You got 1095 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:11,400 Speaker 2: this other stuff going on. Who knows if we'll get 1096 00:49:11,440 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 2: a boxing fight with Jake Paul down the road, if 1097 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,600 Speaker 2: that's the thing that he wants. Like, are you supposed 1098 00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:18,399 Speaker 2: to hold on to all of this animosity the whole time? 1099 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,120 Speaker 2: I get that, Like, oh, me and Dana, I get 1100 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 2: we're on the same team and your team UFC and 1101 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,160 Speaker 2: all this shit it's a little bit strange. I agree. 1102 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 2: I agree. On the other hand, your focus has to 1103 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,399 Speaker 2: be on the fight this weekend, whatever you have going 1104 00:49:29,440 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 2: on after that, testing the waters of free agency, which 1105 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,560 Speaker 2: again could bring you back to UFC. That is a possibility, 1106 00:49:36,600 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 2: however remote one wants to make it. And so I 1107 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,360 Speaker 2: just feel like it's, you know, why focus all of 1108 00:49:43,400 --> 00:49:46,960 Speaker 2: your attention on all of these past misd's, which is 1109 00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 2: not that he's never raised the alarm about. It's like, 1110 00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:51,400 Speaker 2: at this point, what does it matter. It's all going 1111 00:49:51,480 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 2: to come to an end. You can make the decision 1112 00:49:53,200 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 2: about the next chapter, and if the UFC is going 1113 00:49:55,480 --> 00:49:56,759 Speaker 2: to be nice to you on your way out, you 1114 00:49:56,760 --> 00:49:59,080 Speaker 2: can return the favor a little bit. Maybe I'm defending 1115 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:01,800 Speaker 2: him argument to be made that by the way, real quickly, 1116 00:50:02,080 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 2: MMA media is very deferential towards Nate and his interests, 1117 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,799 Speaker 2: so we should also note that, like the MMA media 1118 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:09,480 Speaker 2: is I think overly nice to him, and I think 1119 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,239 Speaker 2: at times we've been that way as well. But I 1120 00:50:11,360 --> 00:50:14,440 Speaker 2: just holding on to all of that animosity is is 1121 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,840 Speaker 2: work and it's a distraction, and I just feel like 1122 00:50:16,840 --> 00:50:18,200 Speaker 2: he doesn't want it anymore, all. 1123 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:19,799 Speaker 4: Right, But you brought up a key part of there 1124 00:50:19,840 --> 00:50:22,600 Speaker 4: the potential for renegotiation. So I'm just painting you a 1125 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:24,640 Speaker 4: picture that I didn't like the tone of those comments. 1126 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:25,800 Speaker 4: I didn't like though, Well, I don't even know what 1127 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,160 Speaker 4: I'm gonna do next. Maybe I'll come back, because dude, 1128 00:50:28,200 --> 00:50:30,920 Speaker 4: they held you back from making money you deserved against 1129 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:34,080 Speaker 4: Jake Paul. Okay, that's that's the straight up truth. The 1130 00:50:34,360 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 4: window that they did not offer him a fight aligns 1131 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 4: perfectly with Jake Paul's rise. I don't think you need 1132 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,600 Speaker 4: a magic eight ball to tell you that signs appeared 1133 00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 4: to yes on why we're here. But you brought up 1134 00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:47,439 Speaker 4: the potential of renegotiation and playing the free agent field. 1135 00:50:47,560 --> 00:50:51,960 Speaker 4: So is this actually Nate being willing to contradict himself 1136 00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:56,120 Speaker 4: in this frame because it's you know, sly like a fox. 1137 00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 4: Because ever since Jake Paul signed on to face Anderson's sofa, 1138 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:00,759 Speaker 4: which is now a fow and we can get to 1139 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,920 Speaker 4: that on the show today. Look, there is potential that 1140 00:51:03,960 --> 00:51:06,560 Speaker 4: the Jake Show could come to a disastrous and if 1141 00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:09,279 Speaker 4: Anderson wins. Is that part of Nate's thinking because you 1142 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,800 Speaker 4: don't just he doesn't just win or lose against Tremaiev 1143 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 4: and then tomorrow enter the Jake promotion. Like there is 1144 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,760 Speaker 4: a potential fallout here if Jake loses this and loses 1145 00:51:18,760 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 4: it badly. Am I not giving Nate enough credit for 1146 00:51:22,040 --> 00:51:23,759 Speaker 4: how he's publicly negotiating here, Luke. 1147 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:27,759 Speaker 2: I mean, he's not driving a hard bargain in the 1148 00:51:27,760 --> 00:51:30,320 Speaker 2: way that you would normally imagine. I think that's certainly 1149 00:51:30,320 --> 00:51:32,160 Speaker 2: what you're picking up on. It's like you had all 1150 00:51:32,200 --> 00:51:36,399 Speaker 2: of this I was mistreated kind of rhetoric that now 1151 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:39,640 Speaker 2: you're seemingly letting go of again. I don't know exactly 1152 00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:41,960 Speaker 2: what the right answer is for him and why he 1153 00:51:42,040 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 2: has said all of that, but like, let's just imagine 1154 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:47,239 Speaker 2: a scenario, b Se. Now listen, Look, we mentioned the odds. 1155 00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,440 Speaker 2: You got hams that as a minus one thousand favorite. 1156 00:51:49,640 --> 00:51:53,080 Speaker 2: I don't know any MMA insider who's picking anyone other 1157 00:51:53,120 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 2: than hams Out unless people are on Nate's team, to 1158 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:56,839 Speaker 2: be quite honest with you, and I'm picking homs Out. 1159 00:51:56,840 --> 00:51:59,280 Speaker 2: I'm sure you are as well. Hams Out almost certainly 1160 00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:01,680 Speaker 2: wins this one, could win it quite brutally. But let's 1161 00:52:01,719 --> 00:52:05,320 Speaker 2: imagine a world, because MMA is fucking crazy, Let's imagine 1162 00:52:05,320 --> 00:52:08,359 Speaker 2: a world where Nate Diz smokes them, right, However, that 1163 00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:12,040 Speaker 2: looks Kurt Pellagrino triangle type thing or boxes them up 1164 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:15,440 Speaker 2: and puts them away. It's unlikely, but it is possible 1165 00:52:15,520 --> 00:52:18,719 Speaker 2: in that world. Do you think the UFC wants to 1166 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:20,600 Speaker 2: let go of him? They might back up the Brinks 1167 00:52:20,640 --> 00:52:22,920 Speaker 2: truck to keep him on board, and of course he 1168 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:25,320 Speaker 2: still might say no. Like whatever he whatever's gonna happen, 1169 00:52:25,560 --> 00:52:28,000 Speaker 2: probably is gonna happen through some kind of free agent negotiation. 1170 00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 2: Like it's not just gonna happen automatically, but like there 1171 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,320 Speaker 2: is a possibility. It's again we go back to it 1172 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:35,239 Speaker 2: with Francis san Ganu. Right, if you're Francis san Ghanu, yes, 1173 00:52:35,320 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 2: the biggest thing you could do to make money would 1174 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,359 Speaker 2: be a fight with Tyson Fury. But how secure is 1175 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:43,040 Speaker 2: that and how scalable is there a future beyond it? 1176 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:45,080 Speaker 2: I just feel like Nate at this point, it is 1177 00:52:45,160 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 2: it is You're right that it's it's a it's a 1178 00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,839 Speaker 2: weird u turn he's made, but it looks like he's 1179 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,920 Speaker 2: at least keeping the possibility open that maybe, just maybe 1180 00:52:54,920 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 2: things could happen with UFC where we thought there was 1181 00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,000 Speaker 2: no possibility. 1182 00:52:58,560 --> 00:53:01,480 Speaker 4: Right, And to be fair, if that Jake Paul window 1183 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,640 Speaker 4: closed and there wasn't you know, a two fight deal 1184 00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:05,120 Speaker 4: there like could be if he goes in there, and 1185 00:53:05,200 --> 00:53:07,880 Speaker 4: especially if you beat him the you know what's his 1186 00:53:07,920 --> 00:53:09,759 Speaker 4: money fight? It's Connor. I mean, so of course it is, 1187 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:11,920 Speaker 4: so yeah, it would make sense for him to keep 1188 00:53:11,960 --> 00:53:15,239 Speaker 4: himself available there. So am I insulting him for something 1189 00:53:15,239 --> 00:53:18,080 Speaker 4: he's actually being smart on? My answer is I don't know, 1190 00:53:18,400 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 4: because the rest of this interview, Luke, while being a 1191 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,640 Speaker 4: typical DZ Brother interview, it's still batshit crazy Luke. So 1192 00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,879 Speaker 4: there's I mean, tell me if I'm wrong. I came 1193 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 4: away from this not really being fully confident that Nate 1194 00:53:30,680 --> 00:53:33,839 Speaker 4: believes he's gonna win. That he almost is, you know, 1195 00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:35,799 Speaker 4: taking this because he has to do, which I think 1196 00:53:35,880 --> 00:53:39,759 Speaker 4: is true. Yes, But then again hedged up with those 1197 00:53:39,800 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 4: comments about Dana right there, it just is a bowl 1198 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 4: of I don't know what the hell to make of this. Now, 1199 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:48,479 Speaker 4: again that's always the DZ brother experience. But I really 1200 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 4: come coming out of here having more questions than answers 1201 00:53:52,719 --> 00:53:56,080 Speaker 4: in a situation where we had almost no answers heading into, like, 1202 00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 4: you know, what's gonna happen here? Except for the odds 1203 00:53:58,360 --> 00:54:00,800 Speaker 4: like I've tried to find bigger odds from this. Ronda 1204 00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:03,839 Speaker 4: Rossy was like minus seventeen hundred when she headlined against 1205 00:54:03,880 --> 00:54:07,839 Speaker 4: Betchkohea at UFC one ninety GSP in the first Sarah fight, 1206 00:54:07,920 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 4: I think was like minus fourteen hundred, and we all 1207 00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:13,040 Speaker 4: know chef Chenko was gonna be about minus eight million 1208 00:54:13,080 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 4: against Montano. But dude, for a pay per view main event, 1209 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:19,279 Speaker 4: these odds are like, we've almost never seen it before. 1210 00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,719 Speaker 4: It's as weird and bizarre fight as possible, And this 1211 00:54:22,800 --> 00:54:26,000 Speaker 4: weird and bizarre interview now has me like even more 1212 00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 4: confused about who's playing what role, who's actually smart and 1213 00:54:29,400 --> 00:54:31,640 Speaker 4: who's not Because you can just as easily look up 1214 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:34,640 Speaker 4: and down Nate's journey sitting out three years after fighting 1215 00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:37,520 Speaker 4: Connor twice, whether he needed the mental and physical rest 1216 00:54:37,600 --> 00:54:40,200 Speaker 4: or not, and question is he always making the best 1217 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:42,840 Speaker 4: move for his own future? Now when we hear the 1218 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 4: way he negotiated the first McGregor fight from Faber on 1219 00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:47,759 Speaker 4: Our Room Service diaries, go yeah, man, this guy's a 1220 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 4: sly fox. He knows exactly what he's doing. But dude, 1221 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:51,879 Speaker 4: I'm confused right now. 1222 00:54:53,320 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 2: Yes, this is a slight it's a slight u turn. 1223 00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,880 Speaker 2: I get the sense that there has been a thawing. 1224 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,760 Speaker 2: Here's my read. Here's my read. I get the sense 1225 00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 2: that Team Das and Team UFC have been at odds 1226 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:11,799 Speaker 2: for a long time, a long time, and that explains 1227 00:55:12,040 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 2: what Nate has said. It's explained partly his absence, It's 1228 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:19,520 Speaker 2: explained his discontent, it explains a number of things. I 1229 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:22,400 Speaker 2: get the sense, based on some conversations and some other things, 1230 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 2: that the relationship between Team Daz and the UFC has 1231 00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:31,120 Speaker 2: thought that there has been a warming. I don't know 1232 00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:33,200 Speaker 2: how long, and I don't know how much, but that 1233 00:55:33,280 --> 00:55:36,240 Speaker 2: there is a change. And I think you're seeing language 1234 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:40,440 Speaker 2: reflected by Diaz that reflects that thawing of that relationship. 1235 00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,839 Speaker 2: Whether that means they will reunite down the line, I 1236 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 2: don't know. Whether that means there will be a Jake 1237 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:47,040 Speaker 2: Paul boxing match. I don't know. A lot of this 1238 00:55:47,080 --> 00:55:51,240 Speaker 2: is still speculative, but the UFC has at the last minute, 1239 00:55:51,280 --> 00:55:54,919 Speaker 2: it seems like salvaged a little bit of their relationship 1240 00:55:54,960 --> 00:55:58,359 Speaker 2: with Nate and at least introduced the possibility that there 1241 00:55:58,560 --> 00:56:00,919 Speaker 2: could be a future with them. Even if I would 1242 00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 2: argue BC that is definitely not the likeliest outcome win 1243 00:56:04,719 --> 00:56:07,520 Speaker 2: or lose on Safe nine. 1244 00:56:07,560 --> 00:56:09,479 Speaker 4: This is more of a far fetched question. Some things 1245 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,680 Speaker 4: have to happen for it to be true. Is there 1246 00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:13,680 Speaker 4: any part of Dana in company when they're in that 1247 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:15,920 Speaker 4: war room and they're talking, you know, not the matchmaking room, 1248 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:17,759 Speaker 4: let's say the business room where they're talking, you know, 1249 00:56:17,800 --> 00:56:21,080 Speaker 4: the future here that they're thinking. Look, if Jake gets 1250 00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:23,840 Speaker 4: by Anderson, which which Dana himself said, that's that's a 1251 00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:27,879 Speaker 4: real fight. Is there part of them that says, at 1252 00:56:27,920 --> 00:56:30,120 Speaker 4: that point there would be a ton of a call 1253 00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:32,960 Speaker 4: right for Jake to fight Nate. Maybe they get involved. 1254 00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,440 Speaker 4: We're not there yet in terms of everybody getting along good, right, 1255 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:36,720 Speaker 4: We're not actually there yet. 1256 00:56:37,000 --> 00:56:39,719 Speaker 2: No, I don't think we're there yet. And also, you know, 1257 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:42,719 Speaker 2: if Nate has a ton of leverage from beating Hamzad, 1258 00:56:42,880 --> 00:56:44,440 Speaker 2: I don't know which way he might use it, but 1259 00:56:44,520 --> 00:56:46,920 Speaker 2: he's gonna he's gonna put whoever it is, over a 1260 00:56:46,960 --> 00:56:49,040 Speaker 2: fucking barrel. I mean, let's just reel about that. 1261 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,920 Speaker 4: What does the like now that we're talking about storylines 1262 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:56,280 Speaker 4: here essentially on this fight, It's like, have we talked 1263 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,359 Speaker 4: enough about what the dias upset like what the next 1264 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,120 Speaker 4: day would look like like, what what the future would 1265 00:57:01,120 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 4: look like like? How look, how would you eat? Because 1266 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,640 Speaker 4: this fight is so damn unique and weird, how would 1267 00:57:05,719 --> 00:57:08,239 Speaker 4: you gauge how big of an upset it actually would 1268 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 4: be if Nate did this. 1269 00:57:09,440 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 2: I'll say this, it's a it's a monster upset. It's 1270 00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:17,920 Speaker 2: it's truly Here's what you can say, easily, easily, easily, 1271 00:57:18,840 --> 00:57:22,560 Speaker 2: Nate Diaz defeating Hamzat Chemaiev would be whatever the odds 1272 00:57:22,600 --> 00:57:24,400 Speaker 2: may say, I think just you and I would agree 1273 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 2: bec easily easily a top five historic upset in UFC history. 1274 00:57:29,640 --> 00:57:33,760 Speaker 2: Frankly maybe in MMA history as well. A historic upset 1275 00:57:33,800 --> 00:57:36,360 Speaker 2: is what that would be. And I get the feeling BC, 1276 00:57:36,520 --> 00:57:38,160 Speaker 2: and I don't know what Nate would do about it, 1277 00:57:38,160 --> 00:57:40,200 Speaker 2: because God only knows. I mean, again, you can thaw 1278 00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,240 Speaker 2: that relationship, but there is still some damage done that 1279 00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:45,840 Speaker 2: I don't know that a thawing can all together fix. 1280 00:57:46,440 --> 00:57:49,880 Speaker 2: But BC, if Nate Diaz goes in there and beats 1281 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:54,040 Speaker 2: Hamzat Chamaiev, I get the feeling that the UFC would 1282 00:57:54,040 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 2: do everything in their power to find a way to 1283 00:57:56,480 --> 00:58:00,720 Speaker 2: keep him on roster because his star, say the next 1284 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:02,200 Speaker 2: fucking level. 1285 00:58:02,280 --> 00:58:04,160 Speaker 4: It goes without saying, and you know what, they would 1286 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:06,480 Speaker 4: give him Connor money, because here's the deal, Like, what's 1287 00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:10,920 Speaker 4: Snake's real problem, Luke, he wants to be appreciated and 1288 00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:14,560 Speaker 4: treated by management equivalent to his legend and his value. 1289 00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:16,640 Speaker 4: We can argue for days whether him calling himself the 1290 00:58:16,640 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 4: greatest fighter of all time, although he's framing it under 1291 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:24,080 Speaker 4: like the gangster code is true or not. But like, dude, 1292 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:26,760 Speaker 4: he'd be the biggest. He would fight like he finally 1293 00:58:26,800 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 4: got real money by fighting Connor twice and beating him. 1294 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,360 Speaker 4: And now if he pulls this upset, which would be 1295 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:36,200 Speaker 4: which would given the largest amount of street cred ever accomplished, 1296 00:58:36,200 --> 00:58:39,720 Speaker 4: and that probably jumping past Habib dropkicking Dylan Danis to 1297 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:42,040 Speaker 4: the face as like street cred of just the biggest 1298 00:58:42,320 --> 00:58:45,440 Speaker 4: victory we've ever seen. Dude, he would finally demand and 1299 00:58:45,480 --> 00:58:47,960 Speaker 4: probably get Connor money after that, because not only would 1300 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:50,480 Speaker 4: you put him in a trilogy with Connor, but you 1301 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,920 Speaker 4: can make any number of great fights with him. So yeah, 1302 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 4: that's true. But Luke, all of this back and forth 1303 00:58:55,680 --> 00:58:58,880 Speaker 4: in Monday morning quarterbacking and trying to play psychologist, how 1304 00:58:58,960 --> 00:59:01,680 Speaker 4: much is this uf? He going, Let's do everything in 1305 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:05,080 Speaker 4: our power to not have Nate essentially do the thing, 1306 00:59:05,120 --> 00:59:06,840 Speaker 4: the pro wrestling thing that people feared when the fight 1307 00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 4: was booked. Oh, Nate's gonna come out there in three seconds, 1308 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:10,959 Speaker 4: flip off the cameras and walk out of the cage 1309 00:59:11,000 --> 00:59:13,120 Speaker 4: and like, I don't know, take a count out loss 1310 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:14,040 Speaker 4: or a no decision. 1311 00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 2: Like he's not doing that. 1312 00:59:15,160 --> 00:59:17,080 Speaker 4: He's not doing that. But how much of this is 1313 00:59:17,120 --> 00:59:21,320 Speaker 4: them just completely trying to protect that. Let's be let's 1314 00:59:21,320 --> 00:59:23,200 Speaker 4: play great with him. I mean, to your point, if 1315 00:59:23,240 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 4: he wins, they gotta resign him. They got to. There's 1316 00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 4: not another could, like, they have. 1317 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:29,040 Speaker 2: To right, they have to do whatever they want they 1318 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,120 Speaker 2: can at that point, I don't know if I understand 1319 00:59:31,120 --> 00:59:32,120 Speaker 2: your question altogether. BC. 1320 00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:35,200 Speaker 4: Do you how much do you believe the UFC playing 1321 00:59:35,280 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 4: super nice and playing up the legends suddenly is them 1322 00:59:39,720 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 4: just doing everything they can for a soft landing win 1323 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:46,200 Speaker 4: or lose. If Nate plans on leaving and putting a 1324 00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:48,600 Speaker 4: stain down now, look, no one believes he's going to 1325 00:59:48,640 --> 00:59:50,160 Speaker 4: do the type of stay and that makes a mockery 1326 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,200 Speaker 4: of the main event. They would hold his purse up, 1327 00:59:52,200 --> 00:59:54,320 Speaker 4: they'd probably try to sue him. I mean, it'd be messy, right, 1328 00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:57,080 Speaker 4: but there's other ways to walk out and stain the 1329 00:59:57,120 --> 00:59:57,960 Speaker 4: company on the way out. 1330 00:59:57,960 --> 00:59:59,919 Speaker 2: Look. I think that's right, and I think what they're 1331 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:01,800 Speaker 2: trying to do is feather a bit of a nest 1332 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 2: in the event of something being possible. Again, I want 1333 01:00:03,880 --> 01:00:06,120 Speaker 2: to be very clear, I think UFC and nay Diaz 1334 01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:09,520 Speaker 2: working together in the immediate future is very unlikely but 1335 01:00:09,560 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 2: certainly possible. But like understand something about the nature of 1336 01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:14,960 Speaker 2: the contract. My understanding is that at the moment it 1337 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:18,720 Speaker 2: expires after his last fight, they have ninety days exclusive 1338 01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:21,280 Speaker 2: negotiating and then I think a year where they can match. 1339 01:00:21,320 --> 01:00:25,160 Speaker 2: Now they've not exercised those rights with anyone, right, let's 1340 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:27,160 Speaker 2: be very clear about that as well. That's what's on paper. 1341 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:31,040 Speaker 2: But the UFC either decides to resign someone or they don't. 1342 01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 2: They don't play a lot of these games where they 1343 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:35,760 Speaker 2: exercise that. But at a bare minimum, BC, they would 1344 01:00:35,800 --> 01:00:38,600 Speaker 2: have ninety days exclusive negotiating with that he could go 1345 01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 2: to no other suitor at that point. That covers the 1346 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,960 Speaker 2: moment in which Jake Paul fights Anderson Silva and if 1347 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 2: Jake Paul gets stretched, which I think is on the table. 1348 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:50,400 Speaker 2: Who the hell knows what's going to happen here. There's 1349 01:00:50,440 --> 01:00:52,600 Speaker 2: a lot of different ways this could all go up 1350 01:00:52,600 --> 01:00:54,880 Speaker 2: in smoke or build on itself, or whatever the fuck 1351 01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:57,760 Speaker 2: you want to say, whatever the proper analogy or metaphor is. 1352 01:00:58,160 --> 01:01:00,680 Speaker 2: I'm just pointing out to get to the uf from 1353 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:03,800 Speaker 2: the UFC side of things, they're trying to make sure 1354 01:01:03,800 --> 01:01:05,680 Speaker 2: that Nate doesn't walk. And also, dude, you got to 1355 01:01:05,720 --> 01:01:07,720 Speaker 2: wonder about the Anderson Silva effect too, Like we haven't 1356 01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:09,800 Speaker 2: talked about this part. We'll talk about Anderson Silva and 1357 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 2: Jake Palm just a second. Like, I wonder if they 1358 01:01:12,840 --> 01:01:15,320 Speaker 2: look back on him getting like a last fight at 1359 01:01:15,320 --> 01:01:17,480 Speaker 2: the Apex where there was no crowd, there was no 1360 01:01:17,520 --> 01:01:20,240 Speaker 2: real adulation. They had like a video package for him 1361 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:21,640 Speaker 2: and they said nice things and they send him on 1362 01:01:21,680 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 2: his way. It's one of the most important fighters in 1363 01:01:23,480 --> 01:01:25,400 Speaker 2: UFC history, and they kind of just you know, they 1364 01:01:25,440 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 2: didn't do nothing for him, but like it wasn't ceremonial 1365 01:01:28,520 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 2: in any kind of meaningful sense. I wonder if they 1366 01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 2: want to correct that mistake, especially with a guy as 1367 01:01:34,120 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 2: beloved by the fans as Nate Diz. 1368 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:36,280 Speaker 5: Well. 1369 01:01:36,280 --> 01:01:39,120 Speaker 4: Look, I think that's partially maybe why they're given Tony 1370 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:41,760 Speaker 4: Ferguson this Cole main event slot in a fight that 1371 01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 4: we're kind of fearful for. Is just like they know 1372 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,880 Speaker 4: the fans have like loved this man on a made 1373 01:01:47,880 --> 01:01:50,200 Speaker 4: man level that you can just it's they're immortal. They're 1374 01:01:50,200 --> 01:01:54,440 Speaker 4: immortal now they are true gangsters of this sport, and yeah, 1375 01:01:54,600 --> 01:01:57,200 Speaker 4: they should take advantage of that, like you said, in 1376 01:01:57,240 --> 01:02:01,480 Speaker 4: ways that they haven't always to exiting legends. You know, 1377 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:05,080 Speaker 4: they constantly feed him contenders and fights that don't make 1378 01:02:05,120 --> 01:02:06,920 Speaker 4: sense since the legend is pretty much not in the 1379 01:02:06,920 --> 01:02:10,439 Speaker 4: title picture anyway. So I agree with all that, Luke, 1380 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:13,360 Speaker 4: there's a question that I want to as we kind 1381 01:02:13,360 --> 01:02:15,320 Speaker 4: of transition to Hamzad, who also did a sit down 1382 01:02:15,320 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 4: with Brett, and I was really intrigued by that Humsaut's 1383 01:02:19,840 --> 01:02:22,200 Speaker 4: a gangster hair, Luke, he fashions himself a real gangster. 1384 01:02:22,360 --> 01:02:25,080 Speaker 4: So there's gonna be a strategic question that I want 1385 01:02:25,080 --> 01:02:27,160 Speaker 4: to save for Friday. That's essentially I think one of 1386 01:02:27,200 --> 01:02:32,000 Speaker 4: the biggest storylines in here. Did Gilbert Burns not exposed 1387 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 4: but humanize Tremaiah of enough in that fight that maybe 1388 01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:38,640 Speaker 4: we're overlooking some things looking at the odds heading into 1389 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 4: this one. Save the result of that question for Friday. 1390 01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,680 Speaker 4: But in the spirit of Hamsat being fancying himself like 1391 01:02:44,840 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 4: a real gangster who comes from a war torn country 1392 01:02:47,440 --> 01:02:51,240 Speaker 4: and it really is about that life, I think I'm 1393 01:02:51,280 --> 01:02:54,240 Speaker 4: starting to believe him when he essentially says, look, that 1394 01:02:54,280 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 4: fight with Burns was that funny competitive because I wanted to. 1395 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 4: I tend to believe the more I learn of this 1396 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:04,080 Speaker 4: guy's makeup, that he really did want to show on 1397 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:09,080 Speaker 4: that platform how badass he actually can be, and that 1398 01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:11,480 Speaker 4: you know, you hear him say, Luke everything he's just 1399 01:03:11,480 --> 01:03:14,320 Speaker 4: about the money, like, no emotion, just about the money. 1400 01:03:14,440 --> 01:03:16,520 Speaker 4: This is what I do paying my money. I like 1401 01:03:16,640 --> 01:03:19,000 Speaker 4: the countdown show showing how hard of a worker he 1402 01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:21,040 Speaker 4: is in the gym, and how he's really about that 1403 01:03:21,160 --> 01:03:22,680 Speaker 4: side of it too, which you need to be to 1404 01:03:22,720 --> 01:03:26,880 Speaker 4: truly sustain. But dude, this guy's made up with everything 1405 01:03:26,920 --> 01:03:29,600 Speaker 4: that it takes to be an absolutely badass breakout star. 1406 01:03:30,360 --> 01:03:31,960 Speaker 4: The more I watch that, the more I look at 1407 01:03:32,000 --> 01:03:33,600 Speaker 4: these odds, and I'm like, damn, do we really have 1408 01:03:33,640 --> 01:03:36,919 Speaker 4: to make this flight? Poor Nate potentially, but this guy 1409 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:38,040 Speaker 4: seems to be the real deal. 1410 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:38,320 Speaker 2: Luke. 1411 01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, you're not the real deal until 1412 01:03:40,120 --> 01:03:42,080 Speaker 4: you show it in the cage and you win the championship. 1413 01:03:42,280 --> 01:03:44,640 Speaker 4: But good lord, he seems to be wired in an 1414 01:03:44,680 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 4: almost scary cyborg robot exactly who he needs to be 1415 01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:49,640 Speaker 4: to be what he's trying to be, and that's a 1416 01:03:49,720 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 4: hit man. He's coming for that cash. 1417 01:03:51,360 --> 01:03:51,520 Speaker 2: Luke. 1418 01:03:51,560 --> 01:03:52,520 Speaker 4: Pay the man his money. 1419 01:03:53,320 --> 01:03:55,840 Speaker 2: And to Nate's point, they this is why he said 1420 01:03:55,880 --> 01:03:58,160 Speaker 2: he took the fight because he looked around and was like, 1421 01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:01,320 Speaker 2: the UFC wants me to build someone for them. Who 1422 01:04:01,360 --> 01:04:04,680 Speaker 2: can I build as their guy? Their UFC guy looks 1423 01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:06,800 Speaker 2: like Hamsa CHAMAIV is that is that dude? So that's 1424 01:04:06,840 --> 01:04:09,360 Speaker 2: why he apparently was the way he called it out 1425 01:04:09,360 --> 01:04:10,920 Speaker 2: in the way that he did. Now to your point, 1426 01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:14,520 Speaker 2: Hamsa Chamaiah spoke to again our en, the main media colleague, 1427 01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:17,040 Speaker 2: Bretokomode over at ESPN, and he said, quote, this is 1428 01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 2: what you were just talking about. BC. I make the 1429 01:04:19,400 --> 01:04:22,520 Speaker 2: money and smash his head and have some fun. UFC 1430 01:04:22,600 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 2: wants to kill that guy. I'm like killer, you know 1431 01:04:25,120 --> 01:04:27,720 Speaker 2: you pay for me. I take his head off. Jesus Christ, 1432 01:04:28,240 --> 01:04:30,360 Speaker 2: that is that's a lot. And then he says about, 1433 01:04:30,400 --> 01:04:32,040 Speaker 2: you know, getting physical before the fight. I don't know, 1434 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:34,600 Speaker 2: we'll see he's playing like gangster. I don't know if 1435 01:04:34,600 --> 01:04:37,160 Speaker 2: he's gangster or not. If we're honest with you, real 1436 01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:41,000 Speaker 2: gangsters don't play with their punches or whatever he's saying. 1437 01:04:41,040 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 2: They kill each other. And this is fight. If you're 1438 01:04:43,080 --> 01:04:46,040 Speaker 2: going to play gangster, I eat for breakfast. Yeah, dude, 1439 01:04:46,080 --> 01:04:49,840 Speaker 2: he is. He is a He's a mercenary. He's a 1440 01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:53,000 Speaker 2: mercenary in the scariest kind of way that he'll just 1441 01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:55,000 Speaker 2: take the check, show up and do some beheadings and 1442 01:04:55,000 --> 01:04:56,640 Speaker 2: then be on his way onto the next thing. And 1443 01:04:56,640 --> 01:04:56,959 Speaker 2: I agree. 1444 01:04:57,080 --> 01:04:59,080 Speaker 4: Does he roll with your guy too? Didn't he get 1445 01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:00,920 Speaker 4: a sports car as a gift and then crashed it 1446 01:05:00,920 --> 01:05:01,959 Speaker 4: from that dude. 1447 01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:04,560 Speaker 2: Oh On Cadeira? Yeah, because he's catch which which ROMs 1448 01:05:04,600 --> 01:05:05,240 Speaker 2: On is as well. 1449 01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,720 Speaker 4: And don't forget that when Tamaiah looked like he was 1450 01:05:08,760 --> 01:05:11,520 Speaker 4: potentially retiring due to the COVID battles he. 1451 01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:14,400 Speaker 2: Had, Luke he got he got bullied back into doing 1452 01:05:14,480 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 2: it by Oh. 1453 01:05:15,120 --> 01:05:18,200 Speaker 4: He straight up got pushed back into it. So I 1454 01:05:18,200 --> 01:05:20,280 Speaker 4: give him credit for being about that life. But Luke 1455 01:05:20,360 --> 01:05:23,640 Speaker 4: to his point, like Stockton, California, like come hang in 1456 01:05:23,640 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 4: my hood. I mean, this guy, you know, is showing 1457 01:05:26,080 --> 01:05:28,800 Speaker 4: us that he's he is he is. He seems to 1458 01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:31,120 Speaker 4: be that that dude the real deal. So we'll find out. 1459 01:05:31,120 --> 01:05:33,960 Speaker 4: But uh, did you come away like it's kind of endearing, 1460 01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 4: Like he's a suit, He's a He's a movie character 1461 01:05:36,800 --> 01:05:37,280 Speaker 4: come to life. 1462 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,640 Speaker 2: This dude, Luke, he is I don't, I don't. To me, 1463 01:05:40,800 --> 01:05:44,880 Speaker 2: this fight is very much the Nate Diaz story, right. 1464 01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:47,440 Speaker 2: It's about his his That's why we did the resume 1465 01:05:47,480 --> 01:05:49,640 Speaker 2: review with him. It's about his journey to this point. 1466 01:05:49,680 --> 01:05:52,400 Speaker 2: It's about what we learn about the UFC during the 1467 01:05:52,440 --> 01:05:55,000 Speaker 2: eras in which he competed, about how they work with fighters, 1468 01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:58,560 Speaker 2: about how they understand Nate in particular, It's about Nate's future. 1469 01:05:58,640 --> 01:06:00,840 Speaker 2: Is he gonna box Jake Paul? Is he what's he 1470 01:06:00,920 --> 01:06:03,400 Speaker 2: gonna do? Right? Sort of, all of these are the 1471 01:06:03,440 --> 01:06:07,160 Speaker 2: things that everything else is orbiting around. The Hamzad story, 1472 01:06:07,160 --> 01:06:10,120 Speaker 2: to me, is orbiting around them. It's not irrelevant, it's 1473 01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:13,920 Speaker 2: not unimportant, but it's a function of everything Nate Diaz 1474 01:06:14,000 --> 01:06:16,400 Speaker 2: is doing. And so I actually wonder, like I do, 1475 01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:18,360 Speaker 2: think Hamasa will get rub especially if he beats the 1476 01:06:18,360 --> 01:06:21,000 Speaker 2: fuck out of Nate Diaz. But to me, it's like 1477 01:06:21,720 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 2: I'm not learning anything new about Hamzad this time around. 1478 01:06:25,880 --> 01:06:28,400 Speaker 2: I'm more just getting a sense of, all, right, exactly 1479 01:06:28,400 --> 01:06:30,040 Speaker 2: how good he is? Can he keep doing this? Is 1480 01:06:30,040 --> 01:06:31,920 Speaker 2: he gonna make mistakes? Because that was the thing against 1481 01:06:31,960 --> 01:06:33,560 Speaker 2: Gilbert Burns, Like I do think a lot of that 1482 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:35,960 Speaker 2: was elective in the way in which he fought. An 1483 01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:40,760 Speaker 2: undisciplined approach didn't cost him against Gilbert Burns, probably won't 1484 01:06:40,760 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 2: cost him against Diaz either, but it could for undisciplined reasons. 1485 01:06:44,920 --> 01:06:47,880 Speaker 2: So you know, there's there's relevant storylines with Hamza, but 1486 01:06:47,920 --> 01:06:50,080 Speaker 2: don't you feel like this is really the Nate Diaz 1487 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:53,439 Speaker 2: show and Hamda is very much a supporting character in that. 1488 01:06:53,560 --> 01:06:55,919 Speaker 4: But the effect of the outcome that we have all 1489 01:06:56,080 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 4: claimed is most likely and you know, very likely, is 1490 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:02,080 Speaker 4: with will events you know, will essentially be all about Tamayav. 1491 01:07:02,240 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 4: So we are sleeping on that side of it, and 1492 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:07,320 Speaker 4: we should give Nate this close up in you know, 1493 01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:10,200 Speaker 4: like street street wise in terms of cred like how 1494 01:07:10,240 --> 01:07:13,080 Speaker 4: could you not take your hat? I mean like it's 1495 01:07:13,080 --> 01:07:14,600 Speaker 4: this is the most Nate d or you know, this 1496 01:07:14,680 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 4: is the most Nick Diaz army brother move ever to 1497 01:07:18,040 --> 01:07:20,080 Speaker 4: take this fight and shout out to Nate for that. 1498 01:07:20,360 --> 01:07:24,080 Speaker 4: But uh, you know, I don't know where I was going. 1499 01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:25,720 Speaker 4: Wherever I was going, look it was it was really 1500 01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:29,680 Speaker 4: going to be magic. The connective tissue just just fell 1501 01:07:29,720 --> 01:07:33,400 Speaker 4: apart right there. Unfortunately. Oh look, does does Hamsa have 1502 01:07:33,440 --> 01:07:35,560 Speaker 4: the cleft palette? I don't think I've read about that, 1503 01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:35,800 Speaker 4: but I. 1504 01:07:35,720 --> 01:07:37,720 Speaker 2: See, yeah, yeah, I think he had a repair, which 1505 01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:38,840 Speaker 2: is why he has the scar. 1506 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:41,440 Speaker 4: But yes, yea, you know it kind of with the beard, 1507 01:07:41,480 --> 01:07:43,160 Speaker 4: it kind of adds to his look. Dude, he's pretty, 1508 01:07:43,160 --> 01:07:44,720 Speaker 4: he's you know, yeah, okay. 1509 01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:48,040 Speaker 2: Well see he's not from a cushioned, you know, part 1510 01:07:48,080 --> 01:07:49,880 Speaker 2: of the world with a silver spoon in his mouth. 1511 01:07:49,920 --> 01:07:52,200 Speaker 2: I can tell you that all right now. It leads 1512 01:07:52,280 --> 01:07:54,880 Speaker 2: us to topic number three BC, which of course is 1513 01:07:55,520 --> 01:07:58,480 Speaker 2: where Nate Diaz could end up depending on how things go. 1514 01:07:58,600 --> 01:08:03,040 Speaker 2: But showtime official, Yes, Jake Paul is going to box 1515 01:08:03,200 --> 01:08:07,200 Speaker 2: Anderson Silva. The opening odds on draft Kings, for example, 1516 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,040 Speaker 2: this morning had Anderson Silva at a minus one thirty 1517 01:08:10,080 --> 01:08:12,040 Speaker 2: five Jake Paul out a plus one oh five. Let 1518 01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:13,920 Speaker 2: me give you the details if I may, very quickly. 1519 01:08:14,240 --> 01:08:16,920 Speaker 2: This of course will be at October twenty ninth, Showtime 1520 01:08:16,920 --> 01:08:19,599 Speaker 2: pay per view in Phoenix, Arizona at the Hila River Arena, 1521 01:08:19,640 --> 01:08:21,880 Speaker 2: I believe is the name of the place. It's an 1522 01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:26,160 Speaker 2: eight round boxing contest with a catchweight at one eighty seven. 1523 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:28,439 Speaker 2: Now I don't remember the last time that Silva was 1524 01:08:28,439 --> 01:08:31,479 Speaker 2: at one eighty five, although this will be you'll have 1525 01:08:31,479 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 2: a little bit of an allowance relative to that. But 1526 01:08:34,080 --> 01:08:36,840 Speaker 2: those are your basic details. B see, I gave them 1527 01:08:36,880 --> 01:08:40,120 Speaker 2: all to you. Your takeaway from this information is what. 1528 01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:44,800 Speaker 4: Uh, this fight is the right one at the right time. 1529 01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:47,479 Speaker 4: It's going to be commercially big. I think it's harder 1530 01:08:47,520 --> 01:08:49,919 Speaker 4: than people on the boxing side of the audience are realizing, 1531 01:08:49,960 --> 01:08:53,439 Speaker 4: given the age of Anderson and the audio, so. 1532 01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:56,120 Speaker 2: The boxing side of things, saying from what you can tell. 1533 01:08:56,040 --> 01:08:57,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, here's what I found in the short period that 1534 01:08:58,040 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 4: this fight became real. And you know, you talked to people, media, fans, 1535 01:09:01,240 --> 01:09:05,719 Speaker 4: network people, everybody behind the scenes. Luke, every single MMA 1536 01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:09,439 Speaker 4: person has kind of taken our side of it and saying, look, 1537 01:09:09,479 --> 01:09:11,200 Speaker 4: we think it could be a close fight. For sure, 1538 01:09:11,240 --> 01:09:14,120 Speaker 4: it's gonna be entertaining, but dude, Anderson could could not 1539 01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 4: only give him troubles he could, you know, he could 1540 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:19,280 Speaker 4: finish him here. Everybody I've talked to on the boxing 1541 01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:21,680 Speaker 4: side across the board and it could just be a 1542 01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:24,280 Speaker 4: you know, not knowing or ignorance to you know, what 1543 01:09:24,360 --> 01:09:27,200 Speaker 4: Anderson's done so far in boxing, or maybe they've seen 1544 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:29,280 Speaker 4: it but they just look over it. I mean people 1545 01:09:29,439 --> 01:09:32,719 Speaker 4: in boxing do things. Shaves Junior is just a you know, broke, broken, 1546 01:09:33,080 --> 01:09:36,439 Speaker 4: busted product. But Looke, they believe that this is you know, 1547 01:09:36,479 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 4: almost like why are we doing this? This will be 1548 01:09:38,439 --> 01:09:40,639 Speaker 4: something where Jake will get the win against an old guy, 1549 01:09:40,680 --> 01:09:44,719 Speaker 4: but not get the critical respect. I think the absolute opposite, 1550 01:09:44,800 --> 01:09:47,360 Speaker 4: because I think if Jake is going to win this fight, 1551 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:49,640 Speaker 4: it's going to have to be in a fight in 1552 01:09:49,680 --> 01:09:51,839 Speaker 4: like a war and where he has a big moment 1553 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:54,800 Speaker 4: because you and I both think this is a very 1554 01:09:54,800 --> 01:09:56,560 Speaker 4: tough fight for Jake. So I give Jake poly a 1555 01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 4: ton of respect for booking it. You see, he's finally 1556 01:09:59,040 --> 01:10:01,040 Speaker 4: getting you know, Dana White to even talk about it 1557 01:10:01,080 --> 01:10:03,120 Speaker 4: and sort of begrudgingly give him back some of that 1558 01:10:03,160 --> 01:10:06,679 Speaker 4: respect knowing that this is a real challenge eight rounds. 1559 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:09,639 Speaker 4: As you said at one eighty seven, this is it's 1560 01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:11,439 Speaker 4: it's put up a shut up. As I said before 1561 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:13,200 Speaker 4: about this fight for Jake, and I think it's the 1562 01:10:13,240 --> 01:10:15,800 Speaker 4: time for it. And I think people are sleeping a 1563 01:10:15,840 --> 01:10:18,920 Speaker 4: bit more on the boxing side that while would we 1564 01:10:18,960 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 4: have preferred Rockman Junior, would that have been the right 1565 01:10:21,400 --> 01:10:25,000 Speaker 4: fight here, probably because Rockman Junior had enough questions where 1566 01:10:25,000 --> 01:10:26,960 Speaker 4: we're not sure if that was gonna be what it 1567 01:10:27,040 --> 01:10:28,920 Speaker 4: was sold in terms of like a really hard test. 1568 01:10:29,479 --> 01:10:31,840 Speaker 4: I think we know or at least can guess here 1569 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:35,160 Speaker 4: that this will be. So this has the perfect mix 1570 01:10:35,200 --> 01:10:37,840 Speaker 4: of commercial and critical potential here for Jake. It's the 1571 01:10:37,920 --> 01:10:41,920 Speaker 4: right fight at the right time. And we don't know 1572 01:10:42,000 --> 01:10:45,519 Speaker 4: Luke a favor Anderson here, but we don't know. And 1573 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:47,519 Speaker 4: that's a good spot to be in because I think 1574 01:10:47,560 --> 01:10:51,080 Speaker 4: in this crossover celebrity old guys coming back window the 1575 01:10:51,160 --> 01:10:55,160 Speaker 4: last few years from Triller to you know whoever, outside 1576 01:10:55,160 --> 01:10:57,320 Speaker 4: of Mike Tyson looking really good that one night against 1577 01:10:57,400 --> 01:10:59,280 Speaker 4: Roy Jones, like these are the two best. These are 1578 01:10:59,280 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 4: the guys that have committed, it seems the most of 1579 01:11:01,439 --> 01:11:04,400 Speaker 4: their attention and effort to really being good in this space. 1580 01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:07,000 Speaker 4: In a weird way, it's sort of you know, finding 1581 01:11:07,040 --> 01:11:09,200 Speaker 4: out who's the best right now in this window, and 1582 01:11:10,479 --> 01:11:13,000 Speaker 4: there's good there's star power attached. Not just because you 1583 01:11:13,040 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 4: and I are going to be flying to la this 1584 01:11:15,280 --> 01:11:19,960 Speaker 4: weekend for the press conference, Luke, but I'm really interested. 1585 01:11:20,000 --> 01:11:22,080 Speaker 4: I'm really fired up for this one because you know, 1586 01:11:22,120 --> 01:11:24,040 Speaker 4: this isn't Tywn Woodley coming up two way classes. We 1587 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:26,720 Speaker 4: do have to remember that. And if you've seen enough 1588 01:11:26,800 --> 01:11:29,320 Speaker 4: lately of Anderson with the hands, dude, there's still something there. 1589 01:11:29,560 --> 01:11:32,120 Speaker 4: There's definitely still a lot to work with there. 1590 01:11:32,479 --> 01:11:34,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I got to tell you, I think if there's 1591 01:11:34,240 --> 01:11:37,280 Speaker 2: anyone in the boxing world that thinks that this is 1592 01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:40,880 Speaker 2: sort of you know, Jake Paul can get this done 1593 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:44,640 Speaker 2: with relatively easily, or you know, sort of a reasonably 1594 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:47,280 Speaker 2: confident pick that you can he can win, I think 1595 01:11:47,280 --> 01:11:49,200 Speaker 2: you're about to be very surprised. I think you're in 1596 01:11:49,280 --> 01:11:50,240 Speaker 2: for a rude awakening. 1597 01:11:51,160 --> 01:11:53,320 Speaker 4: I will you'll be surprised, you know. 1598 01:11:53,840 --> 01:11:56,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, here's what I'm saying. I will acknowledge that 1599 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:59,920 Speaker 2: because Anderson is forty seven, and we don't exactly know 1600 01:12:00,080 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 2: how good he is either at the stage of his 1601 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:05,160 Speaker 2: athletic career at all and certainly not in boxing, that 1602 01:12:05,200 --> 01:12:08,080 Speaker 2: there is some uncertainty here. And I understand and respect that. 1603 01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:11,280 Speaker 2: I do think it is winnable for Jake Paul, but 1604 01:12:11,320 --> 01:12:14,760 Speaker 2: I would definitely favor Anderson Silva to win. I think 1605 01:12:14,800 --> 01:12:17,639 Speaker 2: this is far and away different than anything he experienced 1606 01:12:17,680 --> 01:12:20,200 Speaker 2: with Tyron Woodley. I don't know exactly what the best 1607 01:12:20,240 --> 01:12:22,640 Speaker 2: reason is to explain why Anderson has looked so good 1608 01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:24,760 Speaker 2: since leaving the UFC, where he did not look all 1609 01:12:24,760 --> 01:12:27,840 Speaker 2: that great in his final sort of MMA run that 1610 01:12:27,960 --> 01:12:31,720 Speaker 2: last ye, I'll explain it. Is it? 1611 01:12:32,080 --> 01:12:35,280 Speaker 4: Well, there's two seasons. One could be performance dancing drugs, 1612 01:12:35,320 --> 01:12:37,120 Speaker 4: and in this era, we'd be stupid if we didn't 1613 01:12:37,400 --> 01:12:39,520 Speaker 4: at least throw that out there right obviously. 1614 01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:42,040 Speaker 2: By the way you busted previously, that's just for sure 1615 01:12:42,160 --> 01:12:42,840 Speaker 2: to remember that. 1616 01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:44,640 Speaker 4: And by the way all of our heroes have have 1617 01:12:44,760 --> 01:12:47,559 Speaker 4: probably most likely I don't give a shit, no, but 1618 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:49,599 Speaker 4: anyone holding out like I was for years, you got 1619 01:12:49,600 --> 01:12:51,200 Speaker 4: to just wake up to that fact. But to Luke, 1620 01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:55,720 Speaker 4: this is not the same level as elite UFC. And oh, 1621 01:12:55,840 --> 01:12:58,559 Speaker 4: by the way, dude, Anderson Silva wasn't getting knocked cold like. 1622 01:12:58,600 --> 01:13:00,960 Speaker 4: We didn't have to drag him out unfortunately like we 1623 01:13:01,000 --> 01:13:03,040 Speaker 4: did Chuck Ledell in his you know, when he turned 1624 01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 4: forty This was a guy whose body kind of fell 1625 01:13:06,040 --> 01:13:08,439 Speaker 4: on you know, broke his heart a couple times, and 1626 01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:10,800 Speaker 4: a very elite fights in which he had to be 1627 01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:12,479 Speaker 4: at such a high level. But look, what are we 1628 01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:15,439 Speaker 4: three and a half years maybe removed from him going 1629 01:13:15,479 --> 01:13:19,000 Speaker 4: in there against Adasania and not only not getting embarrassed 1630 01:13:19,040 --> 01:13:21,040 Speaker 4: like we feared, Luke, he kind of had some moments 1631 01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:23,160 Speaker 4: and I know you can always argue in hindsight, was 1632 01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:25,639 Speaker 4: aut of sonia as you know, violent as he could 1633 01:13:25,640 --> 01:13:28,240 Speaker 4: have been. Was he showing too much respect? I think 1634 01:13:29,200 --> 01:13:31,800 Speaker 4: that version of Andersildon Silva at whatever forty four went 1635 01:13:31,920 --> 01:13:34,400 Speaker 4: all in that night, just like I think he will 1636 01:13:34,439 --> 01:13:37,240 Speaker 4: in this one. He's actually not that far removed from that. 1637 01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:41,200 Speaker 4: He hasn't taken on huge damage. His footwork for boxing 1638 01:13:41,240 --> 01:13:43,640 Speaker 4: is actually pretty good. He's got more fight experience, he's 1639 01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:46,800 Speaker 4: probably longer, He's can hit hard. I mean, like, I 1640 01:13:46,840 --> 01:13:48,880 Speaker 4: just think people are thinking, you know, like when forty 1641 01:13:48,920 --> 01:13:50,640 Speaker 4: seven year old Tito or Teez walked in there, in 1642 01:13:50,680 --> 01:13:52,559 Speaker 4: the first punch he took from Anderson, more or less 1643 01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:55,600 Speaker 4: he was gone, This ain't that guy. I think the 1644 01:13:55,640 --> 01:13:58,640 Speaker 4: best case scenario here, Luke, is that these two have 1645 01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:04,200 Speaker 4: a even lee competitive action, fun, entertaining fight regardless of 1646 01:14:04,240 --> 01:14:06,080 Speaker 4: who gets their hand raised where you kind of want 1647 01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:07,400 Speaker 4: to see it again, you know what I mean? Like 1648 01:14:07,439 --> 01:14:11,160 Speaker 4: this this is actually on paper, seems to be even matchmaking. 1649 01:14:11,640 --> 01:14:15,519 Speaker 4: And you know, maybe Tyron Woodley was also for Jake, 1650 01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:18,320 Speaker 4: and credit to Jake for finishing the second fight spectacularly, 1651 01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:21,320 Speaker 4: but Jake also got hurt in that first fight, and 1652 01:14:21,320 --> 01:14:23,840 Speaker 4: that second fight wasn't overly screaming that you would want 1653 01:14:23,880 --> 01:14:27,640 Speaker 4: to see them again. I think this matchup is destined 1654 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 4: to be dramatic and fun that you're gonna want to 1655 01:14:29,880 --> 01:14:34,040 Speaker 4: see it again. So kudos to everybody, dude, And we know, 1656 01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:37,439 Speaker 4: like yeah, okay, Silva kind of look, this is not 1657 01:14:37,520 --> 01:14:40,000 Speaker 4: the UFC elite level. It really comes down to what 1658 01:14:40,040 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 4: do you actually think where Jake Paul's at right now? 1659 01:14:43,120 --> 01:14:44,840 Speaker 4: You know, could he beat a ten and zero pro 1660 01:14:44,960 --> 01:14:47,080 Speaker 4: boxer who has good intentions move? I don't know. 1661 01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:49,160 Speaker 2: I don't know, but yeah, I don't think he could. 1662 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:50,880 Speaker 2: I don't think he could. I gotta tell you, like, 1663 01:14:51,080 --> 01:14:52,800 Speaker 2: I have a lot of respect for Jake Paul for 1664 01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:55,840 Speaker 2: taking this fight because I think it's winnable but very difficult, 1665 01:14:56,160 --> 01:14:58,519 Speaker 2: and I'd also put on the table for folks who 1666 01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:01,400 Speaker 2: are in denial about this from whatever vantage point you 1667 01:15:01,479 --> 01:15:04,320 Speaker 2: want to look at it from. Dude, Jake Paul getting 1668 01:15:04,360 --> 01:15:07,840 Speaker 2: stretched is on the table here, like, not in a 1669 01:15:07,880 --> 01:15:10,439 Speaker 2: puncher's chance kind of way, in a much greater sense 1670 01:15:10,479 --> 01:15:13,080 Speaker 2: than that. I don't know if that's the likeliest outcome. 1671 01:15:13,080 --> 01:15:16,040 Speaker 2: In fact, I would probably not say that, but it 1672 01:15:16,120 --> 01:15:18,280 Speaker 2: is certainly on the table here because here's my view 1673 01:15:18,280 --> 01:15:19,720 Speaker 2: of what's going to happen. Be see. I actually think 1674 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:22,280 Speaker 2: it'll be close for the first two maybe three rounds, 1675 01:15:22,520 --> 01:15:24,760 Speaker 2: where Jake will be careful sitting mind his jab. He 1676 01:15:24,800 --> 01:15:28,040 Speaker 2: does have big power, he is much younger. He should 1677 01:15:28,040 --> 01:15:29,920 Speaker 2: be in good shape. Since it's gonna be relatively close 1678 01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:31,360 Speaker 2: to his walking around way, it'll have to be a 1679 01:15:31,680 --> 01:15:33,800 Speaker 2: little bit trimmer, but not by too much. He should 1680 01:15:33,840 --> 01:15:36,040 Speaker 2: be fine, right, So I think it's gonna be close early, 1681 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:39,080 Speaker 2: but I think over time the difference in overall skill 1682 01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:41,599 Speaker 2: is going to show up. I don't think that forty 1683 01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:47,240 Speaker 2: seven number next to Anderson reflects his present athletic ability, 1684 01:15:47,560 --> 01:15:50,120 Speaker 2: and once those openings start presenting themselves, I think it 1685 01:15:50,160 --> 01:15:52,280 Speaker 2: could get very bad for Jake Paul. We will have 1686 01:15:52,320 --> 01:15:54,400 Speaker 2: to see how much improvement he has made. But I 1687 01:15:54,439 --> 01:15:58,160 Speaker 2: want to stress this very clearly. Anderson Silva is not 1688 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:00,559 Speaker 2: only a favor to win. Anyone who is looking at 1689 01:16:00,560 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 2: this broadcast should remember this. It is very likely he 1690 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:06,679 Speaker 2: will win beyond whatever the odds say. For Jake Paul 1691 01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:10,760 Speaker 2: to win, this to me would be a genuine surprise. Possible, 1692 01:16:11,040 --> 01:16:11,799 Speaker 2: but a surprise. 1693 01:16:13,320 --> 01:16:15,160 Speaker 4: I mean, I'm gonna favor Anderson. I do think it's 1694 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:18,360 Speaker 4: going to be competitive, though, and look, Jake's younger. He's 1695 01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:20,080 Speaker 4: gonna have to commit to volume in ways that he 1696 01:16:20,120 --> 01:16:21,880 Speaker 4: hasn't before. The jab's got to be huge upping, like 1697 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,320 Speaker 4: there's things that he's gonna have to do to level up. 1698 01:16:24,520 --> 01:16:27,320 Speaker 4: He's young enough to do that. But look the fact 1699 01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:29,200 Speaker 4: that we're throwing out these scenarios here, we got to 1700 01:16:29,240 --> 01:16:30,040 Speaker 4: be excited about this. 1701 01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 2: Luca. 1702 01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,680 Speaker 4: It's gonna be in Phoenix, as you mentioned. You know, 1703 01:16:32,720 --> 01:16:34,800 Speaker 4: I like Arizona, Luke. I vacation there as a kid. 1704 01:16:34,800 --> 01:16:37,800 Speaker 4: It's a you know, it doesn't feel as outlaw as 1705 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 4: New Mexico and Texas. I'm sure it actually is, Luke, but. 1706 01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:42,840 Speaker 2: It's uh, it's the state's got some crazies in it. 1707 01:16:42,880 --> 01:16:45,200 Speaker 2: But my uncle lives there. One of my dad's brothers, 1708 01:16:45,200 --> 01:16:47,040 Speaker 2: who I've not seen them sometimes, so I'll get the 1709 01:16:47,080 --> 01:16:49,240 Speaker 2: chance to go see him. That's pretty excited about that. 1710 01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:51,320 Speaker 4: This would be great Uncle Luke. 1711 01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,200 Speaker 2: Well, I'm Luke, so I. 1712 01:16:55,200 --> 01:16:56,320 Speaker 4: Didn't know if you were named after him. 1713 01:16:56,479 --> 01:16:58,639 Speaker 2: I don't know your No, this would be Uncle Ron, 1714 01:16:59,000 --> 01:17:01,519 Speaker 2: Uncle Ron, Uncle Ron, all right, And I saw when 1715 01:17:01,520 --> 01:17:03,240 Speaker 2: I was we were at the Spence Ugas fight. I 1716 01:17:03,240 --> 01:17:05,320 Speaker 2: got to see one of my dad's other brothers. Who 1717 01:17:05,360 --> 01:17:09,200 Speaker 2: is Uncle Larry? About that Uncle Larry Larry? All right? 1718 01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 2: All right? BC? Topic number four here, this is a 1719 01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:16,080 Speaker 2: weird one. We do have some audio and some video 1720 01:17:16,160 --> 01:17:21,679 Speaker 2: with it. Anthony Joshua appears to have accepted a Tyson 1721 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,479 Speaker 2: Fury about for December. Why don't you set this up? BC, 1722 01:17:25,600 --> 01:17:28,479 Speaker 2: because I gotta tell you I saw these exchanges and 1723 01:17:28,520 --> 01:17:31,120 Speaker 2: it's weird. Dude, Tyson Fury is all over the place. 1724 01:17:31,200 --> 01:17:34,160 Speaker 2: I'm retired. I'll fight Usik, but only for five hundred million. 1725 01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:37,599 Speaker 2: Oh wait, I'll fight Joshua Is for a sixty forty 1726 01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,800 Speaker 2: per split. Set all this up? Where are we with this? 1727 01:17:41,400 --> 01:17:44,200 Speaker 4: Yeah? This is really disappointing to see this development here. 1728 01:17:44,240 --> 01:17:47,920 Speaker 4: So you know, Alexander Usik just beat Anthony Joshua for 1729 01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:50,000 Speaker 4: the second time. It seems there's you know, he's also 1730 01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:53,000 Speaker 4: free of his design and Mattrium Sport, you know code 1731 01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:54,960 Speaker 4: deal that he had for a bit there. He's promoted 1732 01:17:54,960 --> 01:17:58,640 Speaker 4: by K two normally there's nothing stopping you know, him 1733 01:17:58,680 --> 01:18:01,320 Speaker 4: going to ESPN and Tyson Fury and making a first 1734 01:18:01,360 --> 01:18:04,439 Speaker 4: four bell heavyweight champion. And you know, Usik Stock is 1735 01:18:04,479 --> 01:18:06,200 Speaker 4: so huge, he's in the top five of the pound 1736 01:18:06,240 --> 01:18:10,679 Speaker 4: for pound. I mean, they're both unbeating like there's there's 1737 01:18:10,720 --> 01:18:12,920 Speaker 4: really I mean, there's so much history, it's it's a 1738 01:18:13,000 --> 01:18:16,280 Speaker 4: slam dunk. Yet all Tyson Fury is talking about is 1739 01:18:16,439 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 4: WWE and boxing a mountain man in Francis and Ganu. 1740 01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:23,639 Speaker 4: And now this let's first go to this video that 1741 01:18:23,840 --> 01:18:26,639 Speaker 4: Tyson put out there before we potentially blow up here, 1742 01:18:26,720 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 4: and let's let's see what he said. 1743 01:18:27,880 --> 01:18:28,320 Speaker 2: If you can. 1744 01:18:30,280 --> 01:18:34,040 Speaker 5: Hey, Tyson Fury, aka the Gypsy King, the WBC Heavyweight 1745 01:18:34,080 --> 01:18:38,240 Speaker 5: Champion of the World. As you can tell, I think 1746 01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 5: you've all dining early fighting soon within the next few months. 1747 01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:47,440 Speaker 5: And I think that before I announced an opponent, I 1748 01:18:47,560 --> 01:18:51,479 Speaker 5: need to do this just in case. Anthony Josh Shuroy, 1749 01:18:51,960 --> 01:18:53,880 Speaker 5: I know you've just lost a fight to ousap and 1750 01:18:53,920 --> 01:18:57,840 Speaker 5: you bounces at the moment, and I'd like to give 1751 01:18:57,840 --> 01:19:00,920 Speaker 5: you an opportunity to fight me for the EBC Heavyweight 1752 01:19:00,960 --> 01:19:04,720 Speaker 5: Championship of the World. I'm a lineal championship in the 1753 01:19:04,760 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 5: next few months. You're coming off a twelve round fight, 1754 01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:09,640 Speaker 5: so you match fit, you're ready, I'm giving you a 1755 01:19:09,680 --> 01:19:12,840 Speaker 5: few months notice. If you're interested, I'll send you the 1756 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:16,160 Speaker 5: date over and we can rumble a Bottler Breton for 1757 01:19:16,160 --> 01:19:19,040 Speaker 5: the EBC Heavyweight Championship of the World. Let me know 1758 01:19:19,040 --> 01:19:22,320 Speaker 5: if you're interested. If not, I will select a number opponent. 1759 01:19:22,640 --> 01:19:24,280 Speaker 5: Thank you very much and gun down. 1760 01:19:31,200 --> 01:19:35,080 Speaker 4: AJ would quote tweet the video and say, yeah, calm, 1761 01:19:35,160 --> 01:19:37,800 Speaker 4: I don't do the online discussions just for clout. So 1762 01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:41,000 Speaker 4: if you're really about it, shout out my management team. 1763 01:19:41,040 --> 01:19:43,360 Speaker 4: I'll be ready in December. So that's why I guess 1764 01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:45,400 Speaker 4: this headline. But I don't even want that that that 1765 01:19:45,600 --> 01:19:48,320 Speaker 4: now subhead on our screen, because not only do we 1766 01:19:48,400 --> 01:19:50,400 Speaker 4: want not want or at least I wouldn't want to 1767 01:19:50,439 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 4: see this come to fruition. Let's talk about what this 1768 01:19:52,400 --> 01:19:56,559 Speaker 4: is really, what's really happening here, and what this really means. Okay, look, 1769 01:19:56,600 --> 01:19:58,519 Speaker 4: Tyson Fury as you said, everything that comes out of 1770 01:19:58,560 --> 01:19:59,960 Speaker 4: his mouth you've got to take with a grain of salt. 1771 01:20:00,240 --> 01:20:03,200 Speaker 4: Just I mean, he's all over the place. He's also, Luke, 1772 01:20:03,320 --> 01:20:06,320 Speaker 4: he's pretty smart, okay, business wise, and you know, in 1773 01:20:06,360 --> 01:20:08,479 Speaker 4: a lot of ways, there are those who are saying 1774 01:20:08,560 --> 01:20:12,840 Speaker 4: this is only about gaining the leverage financially over Usk, 1775 01:20:13,360 --> 01:20:15,720 Speaker 4: who you could argue has enough leverage for you know, 1776 01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:17,960 Speaker 4: a fifty to fifty or sixty forty split with Fury, 1777 01:20:18,080 --> 01:20:20,439 Speaker 4: even though Fury is the bigger star, because Zusik's got 1778 01:20:20,600 --> 01:20:25,200 Speaker 4: three world titles to one for Fury, if this is 1779 01:20:25,400 --> 01:20:27,920 Speaker 4: only about that, and no, I wouldn't put it past 1780 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:30,760 Speaker 4: Fury to be willing to do this. You know, it's 1781 01:20:30,880 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 4: it's unnecessary to me and dirty and not dirty, but 1782 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:37,200 Speaker 4: like Grimy, it's I mean, look, I can't begrudge a guy. 1783 01:20:37,240 --> 01:20:39,160 Speaker 4: This is the open market. You can do what you 1784 01:20:39,240 --> 01:20:41,679 Speaker 4: have to do. People have the UFC. It seems regularly 1785 01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:44,840 Speaker 4: floats what we you know, rumors to try to press 1786 01:20:44,880 --> 01:20:47,120 Speaker 4: your fighters. It's part of the grime of the game. Luke, 1787 01:20:47,760 --> 01:20:50,120 Speaker 4: I hate it when this fight seems so easy to make. 1788 01:20:50,760 --> 01:20:54,639 Speaker 4: But look, if it's not about that, this is an 1789 01:20:54,720 --> 01:21:00,240 Speaker 4: unforgivable potential duck for a guy who like always says, 1790 01:21:00,320 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 4: I'm a fighting man. You know, my generations of my 1791 01:21:03,200 --> 01:21:05,559 Speaker 4: family have been bare knuckle champions, you know, and we'll 1792 01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:07,760 Speaker 4: fight to the death and all this stuff. And I 1793 01:21:07,840 --> 01:21:11,320 Speaker 4: believe that his family believes this stuff. And Tyson, to 1794 01:21:11,360 --> 01:21:13,880 Speaker 4: his credit from coming back from the four years away 1795 01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:17,840 Speaker 4: and the depression and the you know, near suicide and 1796 01:21:17,920 --> 01:21:20,559 Speaker 4: getting up off the canvas against Wilder in the first 1797 01:21:20,560 --> 01:21:24,479 Speaker 4: fight in round twelve and you know, adjusting his style 1798 01:21:24,600 --> 01:21:27,519 Speaker 4: to become more of an aggressive you know, attempts out 1799 01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:29,760 Speaker 4: of becoming a knockout artist and it's been successful. Look 1800 01:21:29,760 --> 01:21:32,240 Speaker 4: at the Dillian White and the Wilder fights. He is 1801 01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:35,760 Speaker 4: about this life, Luke, doing anything but going in the 1802 01:21:35,800 --> 01:21:40,880 Speaker 4: direction of Alexander Usik at this moment shows that that 1803 01:21:40,880 --> 01:21:44,800 Speaker 4: that you're not, hey, ain't you're not being who you 1804 01:21:44,880 --> 01:21:46,120 Speaker 4: said you really are. 1805 01:21:46,760 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 2: And here like does he have to do anything? 1806 01:21:49,960 --> 01:21:52,760 Speaker 4: So looke. If it's about I'm retired and I'm done, 1807 01:21:52,840 --> 01:21:55,280 Speaker 4: I'm not fighting anybody in boxing and I am gonna 1808 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:59,080 Speaker 4: fight the Mountain Man and in Ghana, Like, we can't 1809 01:21:59,120 --> 01:22:02,120 Speaker 4: tell him no, right, go make your money, even if 1810 01:22:02,120 --> 01:22:04,000 Speaker 4: he wants to do this those stuff first and then 1811 01:22:04,040 --> 01:22:06,040 Speaker 4: fight Ousick. Even if he said that, which he didn't, 1812 01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:10,360 Speaker 4: it would be disappointing. He would beat grounds for criticism. 1813 01:22:11,320 --> 01:22:13,040 Speaker 4: But at the end of the day, he's not fighting 1814 01:22:13,080 --> 01:22:15,760 Speaker 4: somebody else in boxing. Like in theory, he could come 1815 01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:17,240 Speaker 4: back when he's ready and you could do the fight. 1816 01:22:17,280 --> 01:22:19,320 Speaker 4: I think he'd be I think it's stupid historically, for 1817 01:22:19,840 --> 01:22:22,000 Speaker 4: he's at a point Luke with an unbeaten record, although 1818 01:22:22,040 --> 01:22:24,880 Speaker 4: he hasn't faced as many big names in this era 1819 01:22:24,960 --> 01:22:27,760 Speaker 4: as you would want. He added Dillion White, that was huge. 1820 01:22:27,760 --> 01:22:30,000 Speaker 4: He fault Wilder three times. I get that He's always 1821 01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:33,080 Speaker 4: wanted AJ because it's a potential, huge money fight. It's 1822 01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:34,840 Speaker 4: a monster money fight and he thinks he can win 1823 01:22:34,880 --> 01:22:36,280 Speaker 4: it and it would mean a lot to England. Look, 1824 01:22:36,280 --> 01:22:38,320 Speaker 4: I get all of that, but wouldn't it mean a 1825 01:22:38,320 --> 01:22:40,840 Speaker 4: lot more if you beat Usick it became the undisputed 1826 01:22:40,920 --> 01:22:44,559 Speaker 4: champion and then you fought AJ and did the stadium fight, Like, Yeah, 1827 01:22:44,560 --> 01:22:49,120 Speaker 4: it would. This is against what Fury seems to stand for, 1828 01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:51,639 Speaker 4: and I do think it's unforgivable. Look, so if it's 1829 01:22:51,640 --> 01:22:53,759 Speaker 4: about retirement and I don't want to do it again, 1830 01:22:53,880 --> 01:22:56,880 Speaker 4: he still would be grounds for criticism. You're walking away 1831 01:22:56,920 --> 01:22:59,240 Speaker 4: when the biggest challenge available to you is there. We 1832 01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:01,760 Speaker 4: don't get good stuff in boxing. We had a chance 1833 01:23:01,800 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 4: at one face one division one champion for you know, 1834 01:23:05,160 --> 01:23:08,120 Speaker 4: like do it, dude. But if this is really about 1835 01:23:08,479 --> 01:23:10,360 Speaker 4: I don't think I want to fight usick because maybe 1836 01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:13,320 Speaker 4: it's a difficult matchup that I just don't care about. 1837 01:23:13,640 --> 01:23:15,920 Speaker 4: Screw your belts. I'll go fight AJ, get my money, 1838 01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:20,639 Speaker 4: and then go do what I want. Dude, yolo, right, 1839 01:23:21,960 --> 01:23:24,880 Speaker 4: But that doesn't equal the words of who you talk about. Look, 1840 01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:26,800 Speaker 4: he has one of those resumes because he didn't get 1841 01:23:26,840 --> 01:23:29,320 Speaker 4: a chance to fight everybody, because he took large gaps 1842 01:23:29,360 --> 01:23:33,599 Speaker 4: off that you can actually jack it up and really 1843 01:23:33,640 --> 01:23:35,439 Speaker 4: make the argument that he's like a top five or 1844 01:23:35,439 --> 01:23:38,080 Speaker 4: ten heavyweight all time only because look, we haven't seen 1845 01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:40,639 Speaker 4: him solved in the ring, right and he's had huge moments. 1846 01:23:40,880 --> 01:23:43,920 Speaker 4: Wouldn't you want to support that argument like an andre 1847 01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:47,800 Speaker 4: Ward or Habib who were similarly retired early didn't get 1848 01:23:48,240 --> 01:23:51,280 Speaker 4: get to face everybody. But dude, we never saw him groggy. 1849 01:23:51,400 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 4: We never saw Kurt go Bain try an acoustic album. 1850 01:23:54,040 --> 01:23:56,080 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. Outside of unplugged in was amazing, 1851 01:23:56,080 --> 01:23:56,760 Speaker 4: But you get my point. 1852 01:23:58,160 --> 01:24:00,479 Speaker 2: It's like, I'm sure we did see that. Actually, okay, 1853 01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:01,799 Speaker 2: you get my point. 1854 01:24:02,320 --> 01:24:04,920 Speaker 4: Like what like if you're about that life, then fight 1855 01:24:04,960 --> 01:24:06,720 Speaker 4: Ohsi can show us. And by the way, Luke and 1856 01:24:06,800 --> 01:24:08,880 Speaker 4: I would both favor you to win that, as I 1857 01:24:08,880 --> 01:24:13,120 Speaker 4: think most people would. What the hell's going on here, Luke, 1858 01:24:13,160 --> 01:24:15,679 Speaker 4: this is not acceptable. We're so close. 1859 01:24:16,240 --> 01:24:19,360 Speaker 2: I don't I don't feel as invested in the result 1860 01:24:19,560 --> 01:24:23,720 Speaker 2: as much as you. After Usik beating Joshua twice, I 1861 01:24:23,720 --> 01:24:26,519 Speaker 2: don't know. I get your point. Like they say what 1862 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:30,040 Speaker 2: they say, they market, how they market, and to your point, 1863 01:24:30,040 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 2: to have one face, one name as the front of 1864 01:24:33,120 --> 01:24:35,400 Speaker 2: this division, especially for a guys. You also indicated with 1865 01:24:35,439 --> 01:24:38,360 Speaker 2: Tyson Fury, who is you know, arguably one of the 1866 01:24:38,360 --> 01:24:40,800 Speaker 2: best heavyweights ever. Assuming he could be Usik and really 1867 01:24:40,800 --> 01:24:42,680 Speaker 2: capture those belts, that would really solidify the argument. But 1868 01:24:42,680 --> 01:24:44,640 Speaker 2: again we have reason to believe with his style and 1869 01:24:44,680 --> 01:24:47,479 Speaker 2: everything else in size, he's very much a unicorn even 1870 01:24:47,479 --> 01:24:50,080 Speaker 2: in the history of heavyweight fighting that you know, this 1871 01:24:50,120 --> 01:24:52,160 Speaker 2: would be very complete, This would be great, This would 1872 01:24:52,160 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 2: be important for boxing. I don't disagree with any of it, 1873 01:24:54,320 --> 01:24:57,560 Speaker 2: but for some reason. I I don't know, man, I 1874 01:24:57,880 --> 01:25:00,400 Speaker 2: have tuned out what they say at this point for 1875 01:25:00,439 --> 01:25:02,519 Speaker 2: the in large part, in large part, and they just 1876 01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:04,200 Speaker 2: would have picked up on how they fight and what 1877 01:25:04,240 --> 01:25:07,160 Speaker 2: they want to do. He seems to be struggling with 1878 01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:09,840 Speaker 2: what he actually wants to do, which is why he's 1879 01:25:09,920 --> 01:25:11,400 Speaker 2: kind of all over the place. And I don't know 1880 01:25:11,400 --> 01:25:13,720 Speaker 2: if that's part negotiating because he thought this was going 1881 01:25:13,760 --> 01:25:15,599 Speaker 2: to be secure and it's not, and now he's trying 1882 01:25:15,600 --> 01:25:17,640 Speaker 2: this or his mind changed. I don't really know what 1883 01:25:17,680 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 2: the answer is. But I don't feel as let down 1884 01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:25,120 Speaker 2: or as betrayed as you by virtue of the fact that, 1885 01:25:25,200 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 2: like the guy just kind of seems all over the place, 1886 01:25:28,760 --> 01:25:31,200 Speaker 2: and if he doesn't really know what he wants, it's 1887 01:25:31,200 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 2: hard for me to like hold him to account as this. 1888 01:25:34,120 --> 01:25:37,320 Speaker 4: Being a mind get one chance to do a four 1889 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:41,320 Speaker 4: bell heavyweight championship with You're already. 1890 01:25:40,960 --> 01:25:43,240 Speaker 2: Right on the you see, you're right on the merits. 1891 01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:44,760 Speaker 2: But I guess I'm sure fighters. 1892 01:25:44,479 --> 01:25:48,240 Speaker 4: Are historically relevant. The this isn't so tiny, brogham off, right, 1893 01:25:48,240 --> 01:25:51,160 Speaker 4: Like these are two Like I mean, this is this 1894 01:25:51,240 --> 01:25:53,120 Speaker 4: is what you live. This is what you live for. 1895 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:55,640 Speaker 4: How many baseball players that went on to greatness, like 1896 01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:57,760 Speaker 4: grew up thinking every day in the backyard of hitting 1897 01:25:57,760 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 4: a home run in the World Series. I know, this 1898 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:01,960 Speaker 4: guy already became heavyweight champion of the world, and he 1899 01:26:02,040 --> 01:26:04,679 Speaker 4: was the lineal champion when he beat Klitschko. He recently 1900 01:26:04,680 --> 01:26:07,400 Speaker 4: lost that mythical title because he claimed he retired. They 1901 01:26:07,400 --> 01:26:09,280 Speaker 4: were the only ones the Ring magazine that was like, Okay, 1902 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:13,120 Speaker 4: we're gonna believe him, But this is what it's all about, Luke. 1903 01:26:13,200 --> 01:26:15,519 Speaker 4: You can't the greats. And this is why we used 1904 01:26:15,520 --> 01:26:18,240 Speaker 4: to criticize Floyd, who ended up fighting everybody. And you 1905 01:26:18,240 --> 01:26:20,360 Speaker 4: gotta give Floyd credit for beating the game and doing 1906 01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:23,520 Speaker 4: it his way. But along that way, we were criticizing 1907 01:26:23,560 --> 01:26:26,840 Speaker 4: some of the choices. Dude, the old school guys, they 1908 01:26:27,040 --> 01:26:29,760 Speaker 4: like Sugar Ray Leonard, they couldn't they couldn't live a 1909 01:26:29,880 --> 01:26:32,080 Speaker 4: day if there was a fighter out there that other 1910 01:26:32,080 --> 01:26:33,559 Speaker 4: people thought could beat him, you know what I mean. 1911 01:26:33,600 --> 01:26:35,840 Speaker 4: And no, no, it's not exclusively true. And some people thought 1912 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:38,160 Speaker 4: Leonard should have fallen in prior it just never matched 1913 01:26:38,240 --> 01:26:40,080 Speaker 4: up and made a ton of sense in a specific 1914 01:26:40,120 --> 01:26:43,280 Speaker 4: moment given his absences from the ring. This is what 1915 01:26:43,320 --> 01:26:46,800 Speaker 4: it's supposed to be about you know, I mean too, 1916 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:48,360 Speaker 4: when was the last thing we had two heavyweights in 1917 01:26:48,400 --> 01:26:50,560 Speaker 4: the top five or six pound for pound never? I 1918 01:26:50,600 --> 01:26:55,639 Speaker 4: don't know. Like this is ridiculous, dude, Like like you're 1919 01:26:55,640 --> 01:26:57,280 Speaker 4: telling me it wouldn't break your heart if you wanted 1920 01:26:57,320 --> 01:27:00,280 Speaker 4: to fight Joshua first and then fight this, I'd still 1921 01:27:00,320 --> 01:27:02,559 Speaker 4: be heartbroken, even though that would be about money. 1922 01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:04,639 Speaker 2: And I can get no to answer your question. Would 1923 01:27:04,640 --> 01:27:08,080 Speaker 2: I be heartbroken if you thought Joshua first? No, No, 1924 01:27:08,200 --> 01:27:10,800 Speaker 2: I wouldn't. I would Actually, I'm not gonna say I 1925 01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:13,360 Speaker 2: would rather see that than Usik. That's crazy. I would 1926 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:16,439 Speaker 2: rather see him fight Usik. But do I have enough 1927 01:27:16,520 --> 01:27:19,320 Speaker 2: interest in seeing him fight Joshua such that that's a 1928 01:27:19,360 --> 01:27:23,439 Speaker 2: thing that actually happens to be like reasonably intrigued, certainly 1929 01:27:23,439 --> 01:27:25,000 Speaker 2: to watch it and to be curious about what it 1930 01:27:25,040 --> 01:27:26,840 Speaker 2: all means. Yeah, I suppose that it would. I think 1931 01:27:26,840 --> 01:27:29,519 Speaker 2: he's picked up on that as well. That's probably the 1932 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:31,960 Speaker 2: reason why, dude, everything you're saying is true. I guess 1933 01:27:31,960 --> 01:27:35,040 Speaker 2: I just don't have the same feelings of betrayal or 1934 01:27:35,640 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 2: you know, fomo or whatever that you seem to be articulating, 1935 01:27:38,400 --> 01:27:41,240 Speaker 2: which I'm not even saying or wrong. I just I'm 1936 01:27:41,280 --> 01:27:43,240 Speaker 2: not moved by it in that way. 1937 01:27:43,320 --> 01:27:44,880 Speaker 4: Well, you know what do we when we look at 1938 01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:47,320 Speaker 4: boxing at the surface for casual fans that have had 1939 01:27:47,320 --> 01:27:50,040 Speaker 4: a taste and like it but can't deal with the Shenanigans, 1940 01:27:50,040 --> 01:27:52,400 Speaker 4: can't deal with the bullshit, it's that the best don't 1941 01:27:52,400 --> 01:27:54,080 Speaker 4: fight the best, That there's no that there's not always 1942 01:27:54,080 --> 01:27:56,599 Speaker 4: an endgame, you know, like the NBA Conference finals don't 1943 01:27:56,600 --> 01:27:58,240 Speaker 4: just end and they say, hey, we had a great year, 1944 01:27:58,320 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 4: Like we go to the finals, we figure out who's 1945 01:27:59,920 --> 01:28:03,040 Speaker 4: the We don't have that in boxing until we do, Luke, 1946 01:28:03,280 --> 01:28:06,320 Speaker 4: should it matter to Tyson Fury? Well, what should matter more? 1947 01:28:06,560 --> 01:28:08,400 Speaker 4: He's gonna get paid a lot to fight oo sick. 1948 01:28:08,439 --> 01:28:10,880 Speaker 4: It's not that that's the issue, Luke. He's showing us 1949 01:28:10,880 --> 01:28:13,080 Speaker 4: that maybe he's not about that life or maybe this 1950 01:28:13,120 --> 01:28:15,760 Speaker 4: is some again long term play to get the most 1951 01:28:15,800 --> 01:28:18,040 Speaker 4: financial leverage and at the end of the day he's 1952 01:28:18,040 --> 01:28:20,120 Speaker 4: gonna come through and do it anyway. Okay, Well you're 1953 01:28:20,160 --> 01:28:21,800 Speaker 4: wasting our time if you're doing that, and if you 1954 01:28:21,840 --> 01:28:24,320 Speaker 4: win more money that way cool. How about just be 1955 01:28:24,479 --> 01:28:26,200 Speaker 4: be a fighting man like you say you are. I 1956 01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:28,920 Speaker 4: know you are, dude. That's why we're saying, we almost look, 1957 01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:31,559 Speaker 4: the thing is like boxing, this era that people actually 1958 01:28:31,640 --> 01:28:34,240 Speaker 4: care about history, and it's not a lot. We want 1959 01:28:34,320 --> 01:28:36,080 Speaker 4: Fury to be that great. That's why we used to 1960 01:28:36,120 --> 01:28:38,880 Speaker 4: get on Floyd, not because we hated him, because we 1961 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:40,960 Speaker 4: had a chance in front of us of having our 1962 01:28:41,000 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 4: own Ray Leonard Sugar, Ray Robinson, our own guy that 1963 01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:45,840 Speaker 4: we could put up there and say, Okay, you may 1964 01:28:45,920 --> 01:28:48,360 Speaker 4: have been alive in nineteen whatever when Harry Greb was 1965 01:28:48,360 --> 01:28:51,639 Speaker 4: on top, but we got our own guy is Floyd 1966 01:28:52,640 --> 01:28:55,040 Speaker 4: Luke Tyson. Fury's supposed to be that guy for us, 1967 01:28:55,160 --> 01:28:58,679 Speaker 4: especially heavyweights, you know, like enough of this Ali Frasier 1968 01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:01,519 Speaker 4: form in nineteen seventies. Talk, dude, we got the six 1969 01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:04,720 Speaker 4: or nine giant beat that motherfucker. Okay, there's still more 1970 01:29:04,760 --> 01:29:06,960 Speaker 4: you gotta do, Fury before we can have those arguments. 1971 01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:10,840 Speaker 2: Okay, it's fair, it's all fair what you're saying. I 1972 01:29:11,000 --> 01:29:13,240 Speaker 2: just I don't. 1973 01:29:13,400 --> 01:29:14,920 Speaker 4: It's still real to me, damn it. 1974 01:29:15,360 --> 01:29:19,639 Speaker 2: He just seems to be wandering around. He doesn't even 1975 01:29:19,720 --> 01:29:21,840 Speaker 2: know exactly what he wants, and so it's like hard 1976 01:29:22,080 --> 01:29:25,679 Speaker 2: for me to be terribly upset or invested about something 1977 01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:27,680 Speaker 2: that's being lost here, even though if I grant you're right, 1978 01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:30,639 Speaker 2: it would be better for that to happen. I don't know. 1979 01:29:30,680 --> 01:29:34,040 Speaker 4: I just close on this. Eddie Hearn, who promotes Joshua, 1980 01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:36,360 Speaker 4: had quotes this morning. I don't know the outlet he said. 1981 01:29:36,400 --> 01:29:39,439 Speaker 4: In essence, we accepted the sixty to forty per split 1982 01:29:39,560 --> 01:29:44,120 Speaker 4: favoring Fury this morning. Is today, lots of conversations to have. 1983 01:29:44,200 --> 01:29:46,280 Speaker 4: I don't know if this is a play to let 1984 01:29:46,320 --> 01:29:49,320 Speaker 4: his break down and then fight someone well under par 1985 01:29:49,680 --> 01:29:51,760 Speaker 4: in November or December and just say, hey, I tried 1986 01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:53,559 Speaker 4: to make the Aja fight, or I don't know if 1987 01:29:53,600 --> 01:29:55,720 Speaker 4: this is to try to get the Yusik fight for 1988 01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:57,559 Speaker 4: more money. Yeah, that's all we said. But basically he 1989 01:29:57,600 --> 01:30:00,840 Speaker 4: says they're going through the process of taking this seriously. Luke, 1990 01:30:00,920 --> 01:30:04,240 Speaker 4: that that Fury really wants to fight AJ. I mean, 1991 01:30:04,240 --> 01:30:05,840 Speaker 4: you wouldn't put it past him if this really is 1992 01:30:05,880 --> 01:30:06,519 Speaker 4: his plan here. 1993 01:30:06,479 --> 01:30:11,280 Speaker 2: Luke, No, you certainly wouldn't. And it's in fact, I'm 1994 01:30:11,280 --> 01:30:13,360 Speaker 2: not sure what is likeliest at this point. I think 1995 01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 2: that's really hard to figure out what Tyson Fury. But 1996 01:30:15,240 --> 01:30:16,120 Speaker 2: it seems to me, why. 1997 01:30:15,960 --> 01:30:19,080 Speaker 4: Don't you solve it once't you solve it just by saying, hey, guys, 1998 01:30:19,479 --> 01:30:21,960 Speaker 4: this Fury fight means everything to England. It's a ton 1999 01:30:22,000 --> 01:30:24,800 Speaker 4: of money. I'm sorry, this Joshua fight means everything. It's 2000 01:30:24,800 --> 01:30:27,040 Speaker 4: a ton of money. I'm gonna do this first and 2001 01:30:27,120 --> 01:30:29,360 Speaker 4: then I'll fight your guy next year for all the belts. 2002 01:30:29,439 --> 01:30:30,960 Speaker 4: Wouldn't that just make everybody happy? 2003 01:30:31,280 --> 01:30:34,640 Speaker 2: Yes? It would, Yes. I think that would certainly assuage 2004 01:30:34,680 --> 01:30:36,479 Speaker 2: the concerns that people like you and the rest of 2005 01:30:36,520 --> 01:30:39,520 Speaker 2: the boxing community might have. I think that's very reasonable. 2006 01:30:39,120 --> 01:30:43,080 Speaker 4: To I love assuaging Luke. Okay, it's a nice saussuage 2007 01:30:43,160 --> 01:30:44,920 Speaker 4: party here, you and I all, we got all, we 2008 01:30:44,960 --> 01:30:46,759 Speaker 4: got mail Luke viewers. 2009 01:30:46,800 --> 01:30:49,840 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, all right. So let's get to our last 2010 01:30:49,920 --> 01:30:52,040 Speaker 2: year topic. Humber five quick hitters. Not a whole lot 2011 01:30:52,040 --> 01:30:54,120 Speaker 2: of this. Put up the stills if you can, according 2012 01:30:54,200 --> 01:30:56,240 Speaker 2: to Jake Shields, and there was video of it. Afterwards, 2013 01:30:56,240 --> 01:30:58,680 Speaker 2: Paulo Costa and Hamsat Chamaya had an incident at the 2014 01:30:58,760 --> 01:31:03,040 Speaker 2: UFCPI where JAMAI excuse me, where excuse me? Costa and 2015 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:07,120 Speaker 2: Jake Shields were drilling or working on something and JAMAIAV 2016 01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:10,840 Speaker 2: came over started some beef BC saying he wanted to 2017 01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:12,640 Speaker 2: fight him. I guess Jake Paul or excuse me that 2018 01:31:12,720 --> 01:31:14,880 Speaker 2: Jake Paul Jake Shields is he opened the door for 2019 01:31:15,320 --> 01:31:17,439 Speaker 2: Ham's that Chamaiah to walk in and they could you know, 2020 01:31:17,520 --> 01:31:19,559 Speaker 2: figure it out there or whatever, and then he just didn't. 2021 01:31:19,600 --> 01:31:23,360 Speaker 2: Then he called him a fake gangster. You're feeling about this. 2022 01:31:24,960 --> 01:31:27,120 Speaker 4: H I'm not surprised. You know, Dana was asked about 2023 01:31:27,120 --> 01:31:28,920 Speaker 4: this last night and he again gave that sort of 2024 01:31:28,960 --> 01:31:32,439 Speaker 4: canned answer of like they're fighters, this happens, and. 2025 01:31:32,920 --> 01:31:35,280 Speaker 2: Which he's right about. By the way, I think. 2026 01:31:35,080 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 4: Normally we would just go like, oh, wow, this was cool, 2027 01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:39,200 Speaker 4: what do you think? But like, how about this, Let's 2028 01:31:39,240 --> 01:31:42,559 Speaker 4: not forget that hamsa is like, look, did you see 2029 01:31:42,560 --> 01:31:44,920 Speaker 4: that the UFC two seventy nine Countdown show. By the 2030 01:31:44,960 --> 01:31:47,080 Speaker 4: way they put some they put the put more out 2031 01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:49,160 Speaker 4: of context BC in their shout out to the UFC. 2032 01:31:49,200 --> 01:31:51,960 Speaker 2: Pree they love they love out of context BC. They 2033 01:31:52,000 --> 01:31:52,240 Speaker 2: love it. 2034 01:31:52,880 --> 01:31:55,439 Speaker 4: But like they called him the biggest probably you know, 2035 01:31:55,520 --> 01:31:57,880 Speaker 4: the most the most high prospect in the history of 2036 01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:01,479 Speaker 4: the UFC. They outright said that the most talented potential. 2037 01:32:01,560 --> 01:32:04,360 Speaker 4: You know, we look at him as a potential two 2038 01:32:04,439 --> 01:32:06,599 Speaker 4: division threat. We saw what he did to Meer shirt 2039 01:32:06,680 --> 01:32:08,960 Speaker 4: with one punch he made him made a Meer shirt 2040 01:32:08,960 --> 01:32:12,799 Speaker 4: his pants, Luke shout out to Justin Kish, But uh, 2041 01:32:13,600 --> 01:32:15,559 Speaker 4: is this is this like a fight you could make? 2042 01:32:15,680 --> 01:32:18,120 Speaker 4: I mean, I know, I mean, look like if Hamza 2043 01:32:18,240 --> 01:32:21,559 Speaker 4: gets by Nate, like whether it's Leon or Kamaro coming 2044 01:32:21,560 --> 01:32:23,120 Speaker 4: through that door, it's gonna be one of them, Luke, 2045 01:32:23,160 --> 01:32:25,960 Speaker 4: maybe both of them, you know, But would you does 2046 01:32:26,000 --> 01:32:28,400 Speaker 4: this get you excited knowing that Paulo Costa is just 2047 01:32:28,439 --> 01:32:30,760 Speaker 4: all over the place anyway, that this could be the 2048 01:32:30,840 --> 01:32:33,800 Speaker 4: kind of sex theater like Romero Coasto was that we 2049 01:32:33,880 --> 01:32:35,360 Speaker 4: deserve as fans, Luke, Right. 2050 01:32:35,520 --> 01:32:38,800 Speaker 2: No, it did nothing for me. I recognize that it 2051 01:32:38,840 --> 01:32:41,240 Speaker 2: could be interesting a potential down the road, because remember 2052 01:32:41,280 --> 01:32:43,640 Speaker 2: he can fight at one ay five, certainly Ham's not 2053 01:32:43,720 --> 01:32:46,840 Speaker 2: Chumaya versus Paulo Costa fight, and how fucking batshit that 2054 01:32:46,920 --> 01:32:50,880 Speaker 2: might be, don't get me wrong, very very fun to consider. 2055 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 2: But I don't know. To me, it would just felt like, 2056 01:32:55,880 --> 01:33:01,200 Speaker 2: you know, overly testosterone fight week nonsense that you know, blew. 2057 01:33:01,040 --> 01:33:03,559 Speaker 4: Up on the lip that that's the fastest way to 2058 01:33:03,600 --> 01:33:03,960 Speaker 4: my heart. 2059 01:33:04,040 --> 01:33:07,280 Speaker 2: Luke, Yes, I certainly can tell that interactions at the 2060 01:33:07,320 --> 01:33:08,920 Speaker 2: weigh ins are your two favorite things. 2061 01:33:08,960 --> 01:33:12,920 Speaker 4: But shout out to the Iron Chike for shouting us out. 2062 01:33:13,000 --> 01:33:16,000 Speaker 2: Luke by the way, Yes, yeah, I'm just pointing out that, 2063 01:33:16,160 --> 01:33:17,960 Speaker 2: like in the end, what does it really mean. It 2064 01:33:18,000 --> 01:33:19,599 Speaker 2: just sort of means that these guys are a little 2065 01:33:19,600 --> 01:33:22,240 Speaker 2: bit agro. But there's nothing really to sort of come 2066 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:24,360 Speaker 2: from that, all right, h b C. I gotta tell 2067 01:33:24,360 --> 01:33:27,360 Speaker 2: you I love this matchmaking. I really do. December tenth, 2068 01:33:27,520 --> 01:33:31,120 Speaker 2: UFC two eighty two, Darren Till is back taking on 2069 01:33:31,320 --> 01:33:35,800 Speaker 2: the South African Dricis Duplesse. I think Fresh af win 2070 01:33:35,880 --> 01:33:39,200 Speaker 2: over Brad Tavares more recently, b C. I'll say this, 2071 01:33:39,280 --> 01:33:41,320 Speaker 2: if Darren Till can't get the jab going against a 2072 01:33:41,320 --> 01:33:43,439 Speaker 2: guy like Dupless, who is not an easy gotta be 2073 01:33:43,600 --> 01:33:48,760 Speaker 2: very physical, but will run into challenges sometimes inadvisably. If 2074 01:33:48,800 --> 01:33:50,679 Speaker 2: Till can't put a jab on him, I don't really 2075 01:33:50,720 --> 01:33:51,360 Speaker 2: know who he can. 2076 01:33:51,960 --> 01:33:54,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I love this fight because, like Darren Till 2077 01:33:54,840 --> 01:33:57,439 Speaker 4: needs to make a loud statement. So while this guy 2078 01:33:57,479 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 4: does bring with him a certain level of you know, Cole, 2079 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:03,719 Speaker 4: I mean he's climbing the ladder, he does walk seemingly 2080 01:34:03,720 --> 01:34:06,200 Speaker 4: face first into the action, it could end up being 2081 01:34:06,240 --> 01:34:08,280 Speaker 4: the perfect opponent for Darren Till to have a big 2082 01:34:08,320 --> 01:34:11,160 Speaker 4: moment against if there's still a lot left in that tank. 2083 01:34:11,160 --> 01:34:13,200 Speaker 4: And look, I'll say this, I've been I mean, I've 2084 01:34:13,200 --> 01:34:15,639 Speaker 4: been highly critical until since I thought Wonder Boy beat 2085 01:34:15,720 --> 01:34:17,320 Speaker 4: him and then they rushed him to the title shot. 2086 01:34:17,560 --> 01:34:20,080 Speaker 4: I do think long term, he's a hilarious troll and 2087 01:34:20,120 --> 01:34:21,920 Speaker 4: he you know, there are elements to his game that 2088 01:34:22,240 --> 01:34:27,960 Speaker 4: I very much respect, But dude, he needs it. He 2089 01:34:28,040 --> 01:34:30,120 Speaker 4: needs something big to happen here. He's got to go. 2090 01:34:30,360 --> 01:34:32,600 Speaker 4: He's if and I'm gonna give him the respect that 2091 01:34:32,640 --> 01:34:35,760 Speaker 4: the relationship with JEMAIAV and really you know, getting a 2092 01:34:35,760 --> 01:34:38,439 Speaker 4: new look at things in the long time he's taken off. 2093 01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:42,640 Speaker 4: I do think he could do it. He could make 2094 01:34:42,640 --> 01:34:45,320 Speaker 4: a run here, Luke, it's in him. It's possible. I'm 2095 01:34:45,320 --> 01:34:47,400 Speaker 4: not saying the odds are likely, but this might be 2096 01:34:47,479 --> 01:34:50,360 Speaker 4: the fight to kick start it or if he's if, 2097 01:34:50,560 --> 01:34:52,639 Speaker 4: if there isn't a Darren Till two point oh coming 2098 01:34:52,680 --> 01:34:55,040 Speaker 4: through that door, this could be the fight that snuffs 2099 01:34:55,040 --> 01:34:55,920 Speaker 4: it out completely. 2100 01:34:55,960 --> 01:34:58,519 Speaker 2: I mean, the other part about Riggers Duplessi is that 2101 01:34:58,760 --> 01:35:02,120 Speaker 2: he does run kind of headlong into trouble. But as 2102 01:35:02,120 --> 01:35:04,400 Speaker 2: I mentioned, very physical And here's the other part too, 2103 01:35:04,439 --> 01:35:08,360 Speaker 2: Like his work rate is way higher, way higher. I 2104 01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,240 Speaker 2: think Till likes for the fight to slow down a 2105 01:35:10,280 --> 01:35:11,920 Speaker 2: little bit and then pick it up at his pace. 2106 01:35:12,200 --> 01:35:15,040 Speaker 2: Dupless is on you the entire time, So it's actually 2107 01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:18,040 Speaker 2: really good matchmaking. I like this. I'm just pointing out 2108 01:35:18,080 --> 01:35:20,360 Speaker 2: if Till has sharpened his tools in the way that 2109 01:35:20,360 --> 01:35:23,439 Speaker 2: which he should have by this point, not completely obviously, 2110 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:25,400 Speaker 2: He's still in his twenties, I believe, but you know, 2111 01:35:25,400 --> 01:35:28,240 Speaker 2: he should certainly have made significant improvement. This is one 2112 01:35:28,240 --> 01:35:31,479 Speaker 2: of those fights where a really good jab, long reach, 2113 01:35:31,640 --> 01:35:35,000 Speaker 2: you know, good footwork should make this winnable for Till. 2114 01:35:35,320 --> 01:35:35,800 Speaker 2: But we'll see. 2115 01:35:36,800 --> 01:35:39,000 Speaker 4: Look, I've been sitting on this dog toy in my 2116 01:35:39,080 --> 01:35:41,479 Speaker 4: chair for twenty minutes before I realized it. Does that 2117 01:35:41,560 --> 01:35:43,640 Speaker 4: lead you to believe that I did it because I 2118 01:35:43,720 --> 01:35:45,320 Speaker 4: enjoyed it? Because that was not the case. 2119 01:35:45,400 --> 01:35:51,480 Speaker 2: Just so you know, I just think you're a donk. Yeah, 2120 01:35:51,600 --> 01:35:53,639 Speaker 2: all right, BC, this one had to be your favorite. 2121 01:35:53,640 --> 01:35:55,360 Speaker 2: And if this doesn't end up And have you seen 2122 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:59,240 Speaker 2: this shit today, you're a fucking fraud. How about ty Emery? 2123 01:36:00,760 --> 01:36:02,679 Speaker 4: While you're taking everything I work for wany don't. 2124 01:36:02,560 --> 01:36:03,960 Speaker 2: You we won't have to show it. We don't have 2125 01:36:04,040 --> 01:36:06,000 Speaker 2: to show it. In fact, don't do it yet, don't don't. 2126 01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:08,800 Speaker 4: I got the same, I got this same. Do you 2127 01:36:08,920 --> 01:36:11,880 Speaker 4: have her quote? Readers, you're fining. 2128 01:36:12,080 --> 01:36:15,000 Speaker 2: So this is the quote she was asked about. I 2129 01:36:15,040 --> 01:36:17,120 Speaker 2: said this to my friends and they were like, I'm 2130 01:36:17,160 --> 01:36:19,080 Speaker 2: sorry you have to cover this. I'm like, you're sorry 2131 01:36:19,080 --> 01:36:20,680 Speaker 2: that I have to cover women knock each other out 2132 01:36:20,680 --> 01:36:22,320 Speaker 2: and then flashing titties or you know what about that 2133 01:36:22,400 --> 01:36:25,240 Speaker 2: is lamentable. But in any event, this is what she 2134 01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:28,120 Speaker 2: told mma fighting quote. To be honest, I feel like 2135 01:36:28,200 --> 01:36:30,840 Speaker 2: BKFC is the sport for me.

Is that really 2141 01:36:44,439 --> 01:36:47,160 Speaker 2: a concern? If that's me being introverted and shy, it's 2142 01:36:47,160 --> 01:36:49,280 Speaker 2: just gonna She's gonna get a little crazy with BKFC 2143 01:36:49,400 --> 01:36:52,040 Speaker 2: and my personality.
