1 00:00:01,440 --> 00:00:02,120 Speaker 1: The volume. 2 00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:07,560 Speaker 2: All right, guys, I just finished checking in with Laron Murphy, 3 00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:11,280 Speaker 2: so that brings me to my role performance playbook. Guys, 4 00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 2: these two guys are fighting in a very important fight 5 00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 2: this weekend for Aaron Pico. He has got to find 6 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: ways to set traps and take Laron Murphy down. If 7 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,480 Speaker 2: he doesn't take Laron Murphy down. For as good as 8 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:26,479 Speaker 2: his boxing is, he is going to struggle because of 9 00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 2: Loron's ability to create space and distance and control the 10 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:34,880 Speaker 2: tempwater fight and four Laron Murphy. It's all about frustrating Pico, 11 00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 2: forcing Pico into making bad decisions that ultimately cost him. 12 00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: We have seen Laron do this multiple times. We've seen 13 00:00:41,640 --> 00:00:44,800 Speaker 2: him defind takedowns from great wrestlers before. I don't know 14 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 2: if he's ever seen anyone like this. So he's got 15 00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 2: a defind takedown, control the space and the distance, and 16 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 2: his footwork has got to be on point better than 17 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 2: it's ever been in his entire career. These two guys 18 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:58,760 Speaker 2: are fighting for what is potentially the number one contendership. 19 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 2: It's a massify for both. They need to follow my 20 00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:04,400 Speaker 2: role Performers playbook to get the job. 21 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 3: Done the longest. 22 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:11,920 Speaker 2: Loron, You're still running. You are a Manchester man like 23 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 2: I do. Bro. 24 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: I've retired.

Everyone 33 00:01:45,720 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: in there seemed as though, especially the ones from Manchester, 34 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,400 Speaker 2: seemed as though that if there was an opportunity or 35 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: a challenge, they would step up to it. You're the 36 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 2: only man in Manchester that gets challenged to play FIFA 37 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 2: and will not step up to you.

Of Big Spot 70 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: UFC three nineteen, and there's gonna be a lot of 71 00:03:31,720 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 1: eyes on it, and I think it's a good, good 72 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:37,280 Speaker 1: matchup to do you Aaron Pico comes to fight, It's aggressive, 73 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: light like you know, so I think it's it's going 74 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: to be a bomb ban on. 75 00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 2: Michael Bisbe has long been singing your praises and telling 76 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: us how special you were. Do you notice that seeing 77 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 2: Mike like kind of always like singing. He's very biased 78 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 2: by the way him and Tom athnall for you and 79 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 2: tom asvenall, I've never seen somebody. So Mike bisban is crazy, 80 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 2: doesn't hide it. 81 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, he represents represented and he knows though like do 82 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,240 Speaker 3: you k guys don't. 83 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,640 Speaker 1: Get unless you like part of him, you don't get 84 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: as much recognition as do the guys. 85 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: So he's just packing these guys. 86 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,040 Speaker 2: And giving you guys an opportunity to kind of uplift 87 00:04:10,600 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: for sure. 88 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: And it's good to see that the first UK champion 89 00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:16,039 Speaker 1: is behind all the fires. 90 00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 2: And so your last fight you beat who did you 91 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,200 Speaker 2: fight like? Josh shemmont? Fought him in the same way 92 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 2: that you've done on so many different occasions. Right, you 93 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: control people? How do you control Aaron Pico like that, 94 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: And do you believe that when you get control you 95 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 2: can force him to make a mistake, Because you're right, 96 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 2: here's aggressive and he won't want to fight you. You're 97 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 2: a guy that fights, but only on your terms. You 98 00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,760 Speaker 2: make them fight your fight. Like, can you frustrate Aaron 99 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: Pico and make him make a mistake this weekend? 100 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:53,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the plan. That's the plan. And he's aggressive, 101 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,000 Speaker 1: He's gonna come to me in it. So yeah, let's see. 102 00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 2: What do you expect from him? Because the guys have 103 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 2: not done well coming over here. I mean, Patchy Mix 104 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: had so much expectation. God Beat, Patricio Pittbull, god Beat. 105 00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:09,600 Speaker 2: I think Michael Chandler is like two and five or 106 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 2: two and six in the in the UFC, Like, what 107 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 2: do you expect from him? Do you think that this 108 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 2: moment will be too much for him? 109 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: No, He's built to compete. His wrestled from a young age, 110 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,240 Speaker 1: and I think he's in his prime. Some of them 111 00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:24,760 Speaker 1: guys you've mentioned wasn't in the prime and they should 112 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: have come over a lot, so you know, And so 113 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 1: I'm expecting the best version of Aaron Pico, and I 114 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: think he's been dreaming of this day for a long time. 115 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 1: Many fires do. This is the dream UFC. 116 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: Lauren, when did you get when did you hear of this? 117 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 2: Like the main co main event UFC three nineteen, Like, 118 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 2: what was your initial thought? 119 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 3: Right? 120 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:44,599 Speaker 2: Because he was gonna fight a lawyer? Two wrestling guys. 121 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 2: You're a striker, right, Like, what was your thought when 122 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: they said, hey, we want you to fight Aaron Pico 123 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,840 Speaker 2: at UFC three nineteen outside of just giving me more money, right, 124 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 2: because most people want more money to fight, like, of 125 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: course get paid, but like, what was your original thought? 126 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 3: For me? 127 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:02,200 Speaker 1: I just need a big breakthrough in it. I need 128 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 1: I need a chance. I need an opportunity to get 129 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: where I need to get, and that's the title fight. 130 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 1: So for me, it's like it's the opportunity I couldn't 131 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 1: pass up. A lot of people would say sit out 132 00:06:12,680 --> 00:06:15,680 Speaker 1: and wait for a better fight, But for me, this 133 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,119 Speaker 1: is a massive card and a massive spot called mein event. 134 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: Couldn't pass it up. 135 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 2: So when you look at this fight, like what does 136 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 2: it do for Laurent Murphy Because you're undefeated, You're the 137 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 2: guy that has a long win streak in the UFC. 138 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 2: You're the guy that would seem to be getting very 139 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,520 Speaker 2: close to a championship opportunity, Like, what's the win in 140 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: this for you? Outside of being on the big card. 141 00:06:36,839 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: The win is supposed to be the number one content 142 00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: to fight before like you said it's supposed to fight 143 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: Mothsa Danea come out and said that that's the number 144 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 1: one contented spot. So I've been shifted into that place 145 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: now in my eyes. So with a win over r 146 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: and p coom next in line. 147 00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 2: Oh, you want a title, you should have a title 148 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 2: shot for sure? 149 00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:59,680 Speaker 1: For sure, who's who's more deserving than me? Massa was 150 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,599 Speaker 1: pull He's pulled out a fight, So I believe I'm 151 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: nan out if I win. 152 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 2: And if you win, that one obviously lead to a 153 00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 2: championship opportunity to hop against Alexander Volkanowski. Like yeah, when 154 00:07:10,400 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 2: you do, you lie? You something to think of that, Like, man, 155 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,240 Speaker 2: I've been doing this for so long. I could be 156 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,600 Speaker 2: on the verge of fighting for a UFC championship and 157 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 2: really changing my life.

Because if I'm fighting 223 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:23,960 Speaker 2: Laurel Murphy, you're if it's a fifteen minute fight, my 224 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: intention is to have you on your back for twelve 225 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: of them. Yes, taking you down in the first minute 226 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 2: of every round, because then that gives me an opportunity 227 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:33,400 Speaker 2: to slow you down, your footwork and everything is what 228 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,840 Speaker 2: really does frustrate people and make it hard to fight. 229 00:10:36,360 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 2: What have you done to make sure that isn't the 230 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:39,960 Speaker 2: case comes Saturday Night? 231 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:40,640 Speaker 3: Well, I know that. 232 00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:43,199 Speaker 1: I know that's most people's game plans.
