No, 155 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:22,040 Speaker 1: it's not Jamal Hill versus Khalil Rowntree, but it's actually 156 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 1: a better main event when he and Mischadeogary and Carlos 157 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 1: Protest face off in this main event.

He also said I'll be fighting 171 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: for the UFC title next if he wins on Saturday. 172 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: Here's your key question. Is there any part of you 173 00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: that's worried for IMG? Then maybe he's been a little 174 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: bit too dismissive about the danger that protest brings before 175 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 1: him and maybe putting the cart before the horse as 176 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 1: we get fired up for Saturday's welterweight title, contending to. 177 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 2: Well for a guy coming off of a loss and 178 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 2: then saying he's gonna be welter weight goat. Yes, he 179 00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 2: is getting ahead of himself. I mean, I don't think 180 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: there's really any question about that. But I'm not otherwise 181 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 2: mad at anything he said, which is not to say 182 00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 2: that I'm co signing it. But he's injecting life and 183 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 2: rivalry and youth and vigor and frankly for whatever other reasons, controversy, 184 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 2: you know, attention into this welterweight division, and not by himself, 185 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:05,000 Speaker 2: but he's doing a fair bit of it, hyping up 186 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:07,600 Speaker 2: this main event, not ducking any smoke. I'm I'm here 187 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 2: for it. I'm here for it now. If he falls 188 00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 2: on his face, that's up to him. But if he succeeds, 189 00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:14,200 Speaker 2: he will have set it all up by you know, 190 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 2: this advance, not notice exactly, but this advance lean into 191 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 2: you know, what a hero he is and how good 192 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,440 Speaker 2: he is and like this brash character, it's almost like 193 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,080 Speaker 2: he's still trying to stick it to all the people 194 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:33,720 Speaker 2: who came after him for that the utterly fraudulent and 195 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 2: totally phony media angle about his life. He's still like 196 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 2: kind of not on edge about it exactly, but I 197 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 2: don't know how to they say it BC like he 198 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 2: still has something to prove about it, almost maybe, But 199 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 2: also like coming off of that shot cut loss, you know, 200 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 2: you're one of the chief components of this idea, namely 201 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 2: that even though it is a loss, it was a 202 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: confidence booster for Ian Gary and I think he is dude, 203 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 2: He's believing in himself. You know, it's kind of funn 204 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,680 Speaker 2: And I did some tape study for this one for 205 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 2: today's episode, and I did some stuff on my sub 206 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 2: stack where looking at the fights ahead of time. I 207 00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 2: and Gary, I don't know how much he believed in himself. 208 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 2: As that fight with MVP wore on, it was kind 209 00:10:13,080 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: of getting away from him a little bit on the 210 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 2: stand up. He was obviously able to rescue it with 211 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 2: the back taking the third, but against Shafcott, you know, 212 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,520 Speaker 2: he was for example, BC at the end of the 213 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 2: MVP fight, he takes MVP's back and he only had 214 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 2: one hook, and to me, a more competent grappler would 215 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,960 Speaker 2: have been able to reverse position and then you know, 216 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: maybe seal the fight right there. He got a little 217 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: bit lucky with it. By contrast, he ended up in 218 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 2: the fight with Shafcott, I think, you know, on his 219 00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 2: back threatening with a submission. It was a totally different posture, 220 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:50,160 Speaker 2: a totally different attitude, and I think he's carrying what 221 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: he felt like he had in his hand in that 222 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,400 Speaker 2: moment forward into this weekend. 223 00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: I think you're right on that, because he's not a 224 00:10:56,559 --> 00:10:59,040 Speaker 1: perfect fighter, and you can go back over some of 225 00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,680 Speaker 1: these important step up wins that he's had and pick apart. 226 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: I just watched the Jeff Neil fight again this morning, 227 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,200 Speaker 1: a split decision win in which I thought clearly he 228 00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: won it. But the argument at times is does he 229 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: leave things a little bit too close? Is he too 230 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,959 Speaker 1: happy disarming his opponent, and is he not putting forth 231 00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 1: enough thread of a finish or you know, weapons coming 232 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 1: the other way. And I think that what you can 233 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,439 Speaker 1: say is, look, he's not a perfect fighter. There are 234 00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: still either holes or things that will only come through experience. 235 00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:33,160 Speaker 1: But his poise appears to be a ten out of ten, 236 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 1: his self confidence a ten out of ten, and you 237 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,680 Speaker 1: do have to give him a ton of credit. And 238 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: he showcased this against Shavcott. Whether Rochmanoff was hurt and 239 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,679 Speaker 1: slowed down a bit or not. Is he'll control the 240 00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,520 Speaker 1: terms of the fight. He'll make you play chess and 241 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 1: x's and o's with him. Now, look, I don't know 242 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: if this is gonna end up burning him one fight 243 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:56,240 Speaker 1: where it's too close and he doesn't do enough, But 244 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: if he can gain anything from that MVP win, which 245 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,719 Speaker 1: it probably did, that repelled him into the confidence of 246 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 1: the shof Cut fight, is that when it's close, when 247 00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 1: it's tight and it can come down to one or 248 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: two key decisions, he continually makes the right decisions. So 249 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: I do have some questions about how confident he's been, 250 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 1: if he's going a little bit too far, But there's 251 00:12:16,960 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 1: a reason why why I learned everything I needed to 252 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: about him in that sholf cut fight, not a bust. 253 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:24,439 Speaker 1: I don't know if he's a champion and waiting. We're 254 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:27,680 Speaker 1: gonna find that out very quickly. But this guy is 255 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: a lot better than his haters want to believe. And 256 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 1: damn this is the perfect matchup, especially on short notice. 257 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:36,560 Speaker 1: And we've already talked enough about Gary's balls in here, 258 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,319 Speaker 1: But why don't we show a little bit of sound 259 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: and react to it about just how confident ian mischatde 260 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: O'gary is. Here's him talking about not only that he 261 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:49,200 Speaker 1: prepares to finish Carlos Prattish, but forget everybody else, Shafcutt included. 262 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:51,559 Speaker 1: He thinks he's got the rights at the next title. 263 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 8: Shot, lacking Bookie Baty speaks fucking English, and Sean Brady 264 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,600 Speaker 8: looks like he's out of load of the rings. So 265 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 8: no one gives a fuck about these guys. Neil Magni 266 00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 8: so here, Look there's his soul. You watched that fight, 267 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 8: right I did. Yeah, Neil Magne has never been the 268 00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,240 Speaker 8: same since I took it. So it's right there. He's 269 00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 8: in the bottom of my hand. 270 00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:14,880 Speaker 4: I've got the whole of Ireland behind me. 271 00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 8: I've got Brazil, I've got fucking America in love with 272 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 8: me and divided and hate with me because of other things. 273 00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, I fight. 274 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 8: I'm a fighter who fights the best in the world. 275 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 9: UFC makes a phone call and says, hey, do you 276 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 9: want to weigh in as the backup in Montreal? 277 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 6: And Gary are gonna be there. 278 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 8: My flight's already booked. 279 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 2: Is this? 280 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 1: Can we confirm this? 281 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 9: She says, I'll forward you an email so you will 282 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 9: be in Montreal Saturday night. 283 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:44,199 Speaker 8: Carllas Bratches is gonna get his ass handed to him, 284 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:47,079 Speaker 8: and I'm going straight to Montreal because that belt is 285 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 8: inevitbly being wrapped around my weight. 286 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: So look, de Montreal. In question, obviously is the Balal 287 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:56,080 Speaker 1: title defense against Jack dela Madalena. We could argue, and 288 00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: I think Gary might lose that argument about who has 289 00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: claims for the time over him. But what does that 290 00:14:02,960 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: sound tell you about exactly these things we're talking about? 291 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:10,880 Speaker 1: The confidence level, the preparedness to be the next breakout star, 292 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,079 Speaker 1: should his ability carry that out for him? 293 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 2: One thing that I picked up on that I guess 294 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 2: I didn't more fully appreciate without tape study, is that 295 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 2: Ian Gary, what is he? Twenty seven right? Twenty seven 296 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: years old? He is on the precipice if he wants 297 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 2: to be, if he continues to work at it. He's 298 00:14:36,480 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 2: on the precipice of making a monster leap in his game. 299 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,080 Speaker 2: So let me give you an example what I'm talking about, 300 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:44,200 Speaker 2: and maybe he feels this and knows this to answer 301 00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 2: the question that you're directly posing BC. Which is one 302 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 2: thing that I picked up on on the tape study, 303 00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 2: is he's takedown defense is very good. And his takedowns 304 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 2: are actually not bad either or at a bare minimum, 305 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 2: they're well timed. Sometimes he gets he's not quite physical 306 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:02,480 Speaker 2: with them, but they're they're very well timed, and he 307 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:05,440 Speaker 2: finds himself on the back or on top or in 308 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 2: otherwise good submission positions pretty regularly. His problem is the 309 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 2: finishing mechanics he has. It's not refined enough yet, right 310 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 2: just exactly where your hands are supposed to be, what 311 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 2: kind of grip you're supposed to use, You know how 312 00:15:19,760 --> 00:15:22,640 Speaker 2: to hand fight in certain situations, you know where to 313 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,560 Speaker 2: you know how to adjust the lock or whatever. All 314 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:28,880 Speaker 2: the different things that go into proper finishing mechanics. I'm 315 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 2: telling you, dude, if he works on that, if he 316 00:15:31,600 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 2: actually tightens up chokes, arm bars and leglocks and the 317 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 2: finishing mechanics that go into it, his game is going 318 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:44,280 Speaker 2: to take a quantum fucking leap forward. Like I didn't 319 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 2: think I would ever say that until they did the 320 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 2: tape s out of I'm like, dude, this guy finds 321 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 2: himself a lot in situations where he has discovered, maintained 322 00:15:54,480 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 2: a strong finishing position and then just can't quite seal 323 00:16:00,400 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 2: it up the way it's supposed to be sealed. I 324 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 2: bring this all up to say, I think he probably 325 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 2: knows this, not just in that area, but in other 326 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 2: ones too. He's never gonna have big power, but he's 327 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: he usually doesn't lean far out of the way to 328 00:16:13,600 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 2: counter strike. He can often get off at an angle 329 00:16:15,480 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 2: and then throw. Contrast that with Sean Strickland, who does 330 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:22,560 Speaker 2: maximum pullback, but there's no there's no offense there. What 331 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 2: I'm trying to say is his game is there's solid 332 00:16:26,920 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 2: foundations everywhere. This next level fine tuning. If he really 333 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:36,560 Speaker 2: goes through with it, it's absolutely going to be monumental 334 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:38,960 Speaker 2: for him. And to answer the question that you posed, 335 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 2: to be see. I think he knows this, I think 336 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:44,160 Speaker 2: his coaches know this. I think he feels that way 337 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 2: that he's just I mean it just tweak a few 338 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 2: things and it could have a huge impact now whether 339 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,200 Speaker 2: or not it'll be a submission finish, if he even 340 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 2: gets the win over a guy like Projest, I don't know. 341 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:56,760 Speaker 2: We'll see you on Saturday, but I think that comp like, 342 00:16:56,800 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 2: where does confidence come from? Yeah, part of it is 343 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 2: just a media angle to play up, you know, getting attention. 344 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,200 Speaker 2: But the other part of it is that Rockmanov loss. 345 00:17:05,240 --> 00:17:07,800 Speaker 2: We see this is a perfect example. There he is 346 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 2: on the back trying to lock in that choke, and 347 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 2: if he had done it a little bit different, he 348 00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 2: probably could have got it and we'd be having a 349 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 2: very different conversation. He knows he's right there. Just a 350 00:17:18,560 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 2: little bit more turn of the screw and he can 351 00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 2: unlock a true, true championship potential that I think is 352 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 2: within him. 353 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,440 Speaker 1: The same argument could be said about his striking, where 354 00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 1: right now he's so great defensively he never lets even 355 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: someone like Shavkott be in their best position to get 356 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 1: off their best work. He's very thoughtful on distance angles. 357 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 1: But I think look like the best part of his 358 00:17:41,440 --> 00:17:44,680 Speaker 1: actual offensive striking is his kicking game. You know that 359 00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:48,280 Speaker 1: the body kicks, the constant little defensive jab kicks to 360 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 1: hold space. I'm wondering if there's a huge level up 361 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: to come there, like is he going to run somebody 362 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: into a head kick that we didn't expect and we'll go, oh, 363 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:00,000 Speaker 1: oh shit. He's a finisher now too, So he looks 364 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: like he's on the burst of budging out, which is 365 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: busting out, which is why this matchup is so good. 366 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: Let's hear one bit of other sound from Ian Gary, 367 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: who does Let's give him credit travel the world camp 368 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,919 Speaker 1: to camp gets the different looks in Thailand or in 369 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: Brazil or in you know, he did some time in 370 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,400 Speaker 1: kill Cliff and maybe they don't love him there anymore 371 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 1: for some of the way he behaved, But he seems 372 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 1: a willing student that adds a lot to his game. 373 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 1: And he actually thinks he's more Brazilian at the moment 374 00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: than Pratash. 375 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:33,560 Speaker 8: The dude smokes American cigarettes, Drake's Irish whiskey. Meanwhile, I'm 376 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 8: in Brazil having gas in Paso key. I'm more Brazilian 377 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 8: than this guy is. 378 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:38,720 Speaker 4: Do you know what I mean. 379 00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 2: So I'm not up in this. 380 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 8: I've got his whole country wanted me to win, and 381 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 8: I think that's just the that's his life choices. I'm 382 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,440 Speaker 8: not gonna That's nothing for me to get involved in, 383 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:48,760 Speaker 8: you know what I mean. He can do whatever he 384 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 8: wants with his life, and we can all see him 385 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 8: talk about it. At the end of the day Saturday night, 386 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:55,400 Speaker 8: he's gonna step into an opting someone who's a complete professional. 387 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,480 Speaker 8: I'm going to mom handle him any way, shape or 388 00:18:58,520 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 8: for my mom, I woman it and there's nothing he 389 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 8: can do is them. 390 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 1: So look, those are bold statements right there, from the 391 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:09,040 Speaker 1: nationalism to putting him in the deep end of the water. 392 00:19:09,119 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 1: We have had conversations about protests. Who's admitted to smoke 393 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: ten to fifteen cigarettes a day? What does that mean 394 00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:18,680 Speaker 1: for his elite cardio? If Gary showed us, like, what's 395 00:19:18,720 --> 00:19:20,879 Speaker 1: the biggest thing Gary showed against shaov Cutt outside of 396 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: his inability to get overwhelmed and finished. He went five 397 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 1: hard rounds for the first time basically on the title level. 398 00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:30,760 Speaker 1: Are you feeling right now? And I have a lot 399 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:32,840 Speaker 1: of great things to say about Carlos protests and I 400 00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:35,320 Speaker 1: want you to share that too, But let's open with 401 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 1: the potential for weakness. Is this a fight that falls 402 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 1: deeper into Gary's hands the more rounds it goes? 403 00:19:46,119 --> 00:19:46,719 Speaker 10: Uh? 404 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I think for a couple of reasons. One, 405 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 2: there obviously are some questions about Protess's guest tank, as 406 00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:56,840 Speaker 2: these clips allude to. I think the other part too, 407 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 2: is Gary he has more ways to win and can 408 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 2: trial and error his way through that. Also with what 409 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 2: is Process's big calling card relative to Gary anyway, he's 410 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:14,560 Speaker 2: probably a better boxer, but he definitely has better power. 411 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:17,520 Speaker 2: And you wonder how much if he's forced to labor, 412 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 2: how much that might drain over the course, Like, even 413 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 2: if he has good gas tank BCE, Like, oh wow, 414 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 2: you know, for a smoker, it's pretty good, we could 415 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 2: end up saying that. But nevertheless, even for yeah, hell right, 416 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 2: But even even with that, if he's forced to like 417 00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 2: constantly wrestle for two and a half rounds, whatever power 418 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 2: he's got and that's his calling card, it's gonna be 419 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 2: very diminished, and that's gonna make it a very different 420 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 2: fight from that point on. Like, the reality is there 421 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,080 Speaker 2: are certain physical aspects to process his game that I 422 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 2: don't think Gary can really match. But I think it's 423 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,880 Speaker 2: wrong to look at this and say, oh, Projess has 424 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:54,640 Speaker 2: more ways to win. I don't. I really don't think 425 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,560 Speaker 2: that is true. Again, it doesn't mean again that that 426 00:20:57,560 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 2: doesn't mean that that Gary will win. He could make 427 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 2: him steak, catch more on the chin, and you know, 428 00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 2: the whole shit is over. But Gary, I think could 429 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:06,920 Speaker 2: win on the feet if he needs to, and he 430 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 2: can definitely win on the ground if he needs to, 431 00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:10,640 Speaker 2: and that gives him some real latitude. 432 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,679 Speaker 1: It is hard to ignore the streak that Protest is on. 433 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,520 Speaker 1: He's twenty one and six overall, but all four of 434 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:20,320 Speaker 1: his UFC fights and his Dana White Contender series all 435 00:21:20,359 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: five in total, have ended in knockout within the first 436 00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:26,760 Speaker 1: two rounds, so we know the explosive power. He even 437 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,919 Speaker 1: got guys like Neil Magne who went the distance against 438 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:32,919 Speaker 1: Ian Gary and the Leech, and he did it in 439 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: impressive fashion with that length, picking apart with big shots. 440 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 1: But we got some sound from Pratesh in response to 441 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,960 Speaker 1: Gary's comments, and Protest thinks the biggest difference between them 442 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: will actually come down up here to mental strength. 443 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 9: Let's listen in just watching your media day from earlier 444 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 9: and Ian's media day from earlier. He was saying a 445 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,600 Speaker 9: lot of stuff, man, like about you. You've heard the 446 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,080 Speaker 9: comments about being the quitter, and he says he's more 447 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 9: Brazilian than you. Like, is he making this personal? 448 00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:58,680 Speaker 1: Now? 449 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:03,119 Speaker 11: No, really, bro, I don't care about what he's saying. 450 00:22:03,160 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 11: You know, when I step on the octagon, no emotions, 451 00:22:09,000 --> 00:22:09,680 Speaker 11: no anything. 452 00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:09,920 Speaker 3: Bro. 453 00:22:10,280 --> 00:22:14,120 Speaker 11: No, he can't say whenever he wants. But it's gonna change. 454 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 11: I'm gonna step on the cage. You're gonna mesh him. 455 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 11: I'm gonna knock him out. I'm gonna hurt him just 456 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,199 Speaker 11: because I get him paid for that. 457 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,480 Speaker 2: You know, it's my job. 458 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 11: It's my work, you know, not because about what he 459 00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:27,720 Speaker 11: say or things like that. 460 00:22:28,160 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, Like you lose all the emotion and you kind 461 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 9: of just go on instinct when you're in the cage. 462 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 463 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 11: I think when some fighters do things like that, what 464 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:40,040 Speaker 11: he doing is because his mind is not so strong 465 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 11: like mine, you know, because like he tried to to 466 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 11: to to broken my mind and things like that, because 467 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,920 Speaker 11: maybe some point of the life or some fight, somebody 468 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 11: did it with him, you know, and now he's afraid 469 00:22:54,400 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 11: about me start to do it with him, and then 470 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,199 Speaker 11: he started to do it with me, you know, but 471 00:23:00,080 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 11: bro and nothing changeing Saturday night. I gonna go there, 472 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:10,439 Speaker 11: least in my music walk out, step on the cage 473 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 11: and GADeL Marini wamar Bonos knocking him out. 474 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 2: That's it. 475 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:18,760 Speaker 1: Look, I'm trying to figure out who's in for the 476 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: root awakening here. I mean, the odds have it so close. 477 00:23:21,800 --> 00:23:24,600 Speaker 1: We talk about the great matchmaking involved Gary of course 478 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: taking a chance on multiple fronts, but he wants to 479 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: stay busy. He wants his last performance to be fresh 480 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 1: in the mind of the UFC matchmakers ahead of that 481 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,960 Speaker 1: ballal sile of defense coming up. So when you look 482 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 1: at those odds and how close they are, like, could 483 00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:41,720 Speaker 1: you see that? Like you, where do you lean more 484 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,479 Speaker 1: that somebody's gonna end up pulling away one sided here 485 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: or that this will be a nip and tuck fight 486 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 1: that maybe could go five rounds where your decision could 487 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 1: go either way. 488 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:56,480 Speaker 2: I think that again, a range of scenarios are possible, 489 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 2: but I think one likely one or at least one 490 00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:01,719 Speaker 2: more likely than some of the others. Is that like 491 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: what again, just just realistically speaking, how is if prochess 492 00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 2: is to win, how is he going to win, and 493 00:24:07,480 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 2: my answer to that would probably be pressure on the 494 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 2: front foot, galloping on the front foot, and then big 495 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:16,520 Speaker 2: power boxing combinations. Right as you press a guy up 496 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,879 Speaker 2: against the fence, that's gonna be probably his best bet. Okay. 497 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,919 Speaker 2: So that means Gary now has to anticipate this and 498 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:24,199 Speaker 2: he has to have an answer for it, and he 499 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,159 Speaker 2: does have very good footwork. By the way, if this 500 00:24:26,240 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 2: was in the Apex, I might feel a little bit 501 00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: differently about this, But the fact that it's in the 502 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,560 Speaker 2: big cage where Gary has a lot of room to 503 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,919 Speaker 2: move and he does have. By the way, the tape 504 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:37,040 Speaker 2: does not lie on this one. He is much faster 505 00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 2: than Carlos Process, but faster feet and faster hands. I 506 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,920 Speaker 2: think that might play a role over time. But he's 507 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,840 Speaker 2: gonna have Process in his face. Okay. So what I 508 00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 2: think is actually gonna happen is that you might see 509 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 2: Gary struggle for a couple of rounds. I don't think 510 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 2: that's in any way crazy. He might get dropped or 511 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:53,199 Speaker 2: to a bare minimum. You know, he's going to be 512 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,600 Speaker 2: trying smothering Process and reversing him and then pressing him 513 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 2: into the fence and like taking him down and making 514 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 2: him work. It's after that that I think it gets 515 00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 2: kind of interesting. You know, after two and a half rounds, 516 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,360 Speaker 2: whoever is like winning at the you know, let's say 517 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 2: the four minute mark of round three might be the 518 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 2: one that carries it on from there on out. Again 519 00:25:11,800 --> 00:25:14,199 Speaker 2: that there's so many different ways it could go. But 520 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,520 Speaker 2: I have a feeling that that early pressure might really 521 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 2: give Gary some problems. But once he slows it down, 522 00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:22,720 Speaker 2: once he's able to see it, once he's able to 523 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:26,720 Speaker 2: now adjust to it and then launch counter offense, particularly 524 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 2: on the ground, that is where I think he can 525 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 2: do some significant work. Also also assuming he has tightened 526 00:25:33,160 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 2: up some finishing mechanics on various submission threats. So that's 527 00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 2: I think that is of all the plausible scenarios, that one, 528 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 2: to me seems pretty likely Long Island. 529 00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 1: Look, when we ever voiced originally the idea that this 530 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: fight could happen, you jumped in. You weren't even called upon, 531 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: and basically were like Ian Gary by mad You have 532 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:59,639 Speaker 1: mentioned to us off camera that the odds have moved around. 533 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 1: I mentioned that minus one forty two Gary as the favorite, 534 00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: have the odds changed, and from a betting standpoint, are 535 00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,480 Speaker 1: you still all or nothing here on IMG. 536 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 537 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 6: So when me and Luke did the Mailbag episode last week, 538 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 6: the odds were a pick him. It was minus one 539 00:26:14,520 --> 00:26:16,800 Speaker 6: twelve minus one oh eight, and I said at the time, 540 00:26:16,840 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 6: I was like, Ooh, I think money will come in 541 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,240 Speaker 6: on protests and I can get Ian Gary as a dog. 542 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 6: That was not the case. Money has continued to come 543 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 6: in on Ian Gary. He's obviously minus one forty two. 544 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 6: Now personally, my feelings still haven't changed. I still think 545 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,000 Speaker 6: he wins. I got him at minus one twenty five, 546 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:33,720 Speaker 6: so it was a good price on him. He took 547 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,200 Speaker 6: down or he's taking down three of his last four opponents. 548 00:26:36,280 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 6: Protest was taken down in his Contender series fight. Also, 549 00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,560 Speaker 6: they land about the same strikes per minute, but Protest 550 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 6: gets hit about twice as more. Usuel like, Ian Gary 551 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 6: has ways to get this done man, And yeah, I. 552 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 5: Haven't flip flapped on it at all. 553 00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:51,959 Speaker 1: Really, Luke part of that, Luke Thomas part of that. 554 00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 1: Ian Gary has ways to get this done, which I 555 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,400 Speaker 1: do agree. I think he has more ways is he does. 556 00:26:57,480 --> 00:26:59,600 Speaker 1: I mean there's been fights where he's gotten hit, maybe 557 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 1: more than expected, but when forced to bite down like 558 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,119 Speaker 1: he was against Shavcoat where there was really gonna be 559 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 1: no room for big error. Just like the Jeff Meal fight, 560 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:12,600 Speaker 1: he has an ability to keep away your best offense. 561 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,200 Speaker 1: Is there any threat here that this fight is boring? 562 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: Because that it will end up being the best style 563 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,960 Speaker 1: if Ian Gary has the control that he's looking. 564 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:24,919 Speaker 2: For, could be the So some of the things that 565 00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 2: for me that Gary doesn't have. He doesn't have big power. 566 00:27:27,560 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 2: And I know he stopped people with strikes, but he 567 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,119 Speaker 2: does not have big power. He's got you know, you know, 568 00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 2: if you let him land on you, he'll knock you 569 00:27:33,520 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: out eventually, But he doesn't have the kind of a 570 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,600 Speaker 2: clubbing power that I think Projess has. His striking offense 571 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: goes through his leg kicking and particularly that outside calfkick. 572 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 2: That's where all kind of began. So what he does 573 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:48,640 Speaker 2: is he stands orthodox so this lead leg that one 574 00:27:48,720 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 2: tends to do a lot of the chopping excuse me, 575 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 2: that one he'll switch step and then go to the body, 576 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:56,680 Speaker 2: and then the other one he'll tend to like calfkick 577 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 2: on the other side. In fact, one big problem that 578 00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 2: he had in the Neil Magnet fight is and you know, 579 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 2: by the way, they have a similar opponent in Neil 580 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: Magne and Carlos Protest. Protest to me was not not 581 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,679 Speaker 2: hugely but a little bit better about steering No MAGNEI 582 00:28:09,760 --> 00:28:12,480 Speaker 2: when he was on the fence into his power, Whereas 583 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:14,720 Speaker 2: you saw Ian Gary at the time and it was 584 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:16,480 Speaker 2: that was you know, two years ago, but you saw 585 00:28:16,560 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 2: him struggle a little bit and closing that off and 586 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:21,520 Speaker 2: forcing him into the power. So this is one of 587 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 2: those other things where I'm talking about like tightening up. 588 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 2: That doesn't that doesn't you know, get what you want. 589 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 2: But like the point I'm trying to make is if 590 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,399 Speaker 2: he gets hurt early or dropped or you know, feels 591 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: the power, Gary's gonna try and keep that one at 592 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 2: kicking range. I mean, I think that's a very safe bet. 593 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,960 Speaker 2: Assuming those other things happen first, right where he's afraid 594 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:42,280 Speaker 2: of the power or recognizes it's a significant threat, He's 595 00:28:42,320 --> 00:28:44,480 Speaker 2: gonna he's gonna be playing a big kicking game with 596 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 2: that rear leg. He'll go oblique kick, he'll go teep 597 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 2: to the gut, and he'll even go up top to 598 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,160 Speaker 2: the head at times. So those are really what you're 599 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,760 Speaker 2: looking at with his kicking game is the switch step 600 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 2: to the body, switch step to the head, sometimes the 601 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 2: teep to the all three different locations, and then that 602 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 2: leg kick on the outside. That's kind of how he's 603 00:29:01,480 --> 00:29:03,280 Speaker 2: built it. I think what I would say to the 604 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 2: viewers is, given that I've given this very minimal but 605 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 2: clear roadmap to how he throws these kicks, let's see 606 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 2: what he adds this weekend, and when he adds, by 607 00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 2: the way, by ABC, when he adds foot and hand combinations. 608 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,720 Speaker 2: Because a lot of times what Gary does this drives 609 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 2: me fucking nuts. He just single strikes. He'll land a 610 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 2: good one and then not follow up and land another 611 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 2: good one and then not follow up. But when he 612 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 2: follows up off of something and puts combinations together, then 613 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: that's when he does real damage. Is he gonna do 614 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 2: that against someone early who's on the front foot against him? 615 00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 2: To me, Gary wins this fight by solving for that 616 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 2: pressure from prochest, either in the stand up or on 617 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 2: the ground, whichever way you want to solve for it. 618 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:49,040 Speaker 2: But that's what he has to solve for, because I 619 00:29:49,040 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 2: don't think he can get off his best offense if 620 00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 2: he's constantly getting backed up and hurried in that kind 621 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 2: of way. 622 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: I agree, and you don't forget against Jeff Neil. He 623 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 1: did introduce to speak on the combos. You're mentioning that 624 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,719 Speaker 1: inside leg kick with the instant right cross behind it, 625 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:05,800 Speaker 1: So he is adding a lot of different wrinkles to 626 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 1: his game. But look at to lean one more time 627 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: into what protest brings in. Momentum matters in the sport, 628 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:15,240 Speaker 1: and who has more momentum right now than the fighting nerds? 629 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:20,040 Speaker 1: Nobody there seems to be this joyful, loose like none 630 00:30:20,080 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 1: of this matters. Let's swing big attitude, which certainly can 631 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: continue to lift you up. But what if you add 632 00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:29,880 Speaker 1: that to the four inch reach advantage that protest brings in. 633 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,920 Speaker 1: Look at his worst Ian Gary is boring and doesn't 634 00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:38,200 Speaker 1: throw back enough. While limiting your strikes, protests may be 635 00:30:38,240 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: able to find that chin a few times early. I'm 636 00:30:40,640 --> 00:30:42,680 Speaker 1: wondering what that does to the flow of this fight, 637 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: because he's longer than people think, and he's patient for 638 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 1: a wild man. 639 00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 2: No, there's simply no question about this. I'm glad you 640 00:30:50,040 --> 00:30:53,280 Speaker 2: brought this up because this is key to his style. 641 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 2: I think you know, I'm not sure exactly where seventy 642 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 2: eight inches on his reach puts him among his competitors 643 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:02,040 Speaker 2: or the app dge relating weight more generally. But this 644 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 2: is another thing that shows up on tape protest. When 645 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 2: he's pressuring will stand closer, and that makes sense obviously, right, 646 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 2: because he's trying to box. He's not trying to kick 647 00:31:10,520 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 2: you as much as somebody like Ian Gary. Ian Gary 648 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 2: gives these guys a little bit of room, which gives 649 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:16,560 Speaker 2: them a little bit more room to move, and it 650 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 2: makes them harder to corral, especially in terms of steering 651 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,280 Speaker 2: in the direction you want them to go. Do protesses 652 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 2: right up on you relatively speaking. But because he has 653 00:31:25,120 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: such a long reach, or at least a relatively long reach here, 654 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 2: he's able to make kind of effective use of that 655 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 2: still staying relatively safe. So he's got a style where 656 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:34,920 Speaker 2: he's got, you know, he stands much closer to you, 657 00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 2: relatively speaking than a kicker, but it's still far enough 658 00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: away where you know, yes, he does get statistically hit 659 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 2: a little bit more, but he kind of avoids most 660 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:44,800 Speaker 2: of the world a lot, I should say, a lot 661 00:31:44,840 --> 00:31:48,120 Speaker 2: of the worst of that by leaning on how good 662 00:31:48,200 --> 00:31:51,760 Speaker 2: his and how effective his reach can be in that case. 663 00:31:51,840 --> 00:31:55,320 Speaker 2: So this is a lanky guy who uses that length 664 00:31:55,760 --> 00:31:59,080 Speaker 2: for the most part pretty effectively in this aggressive posture. 665 00:31:59,120 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 2: This is what I mean. Gary's gotta solve that. If 666 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,480 Speaker 2: you don't solve that, you can't win. But if you do, 667 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,880 Speaker 2: I think the world is his oyster on Saturday. 668 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is gonna be great, man. I freaking love 669 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 1: this fight. I believe there's more to gain for Gary 670 00:32:12,480 --> 00:32:15,600 Speaker 1: from momentum to the star that he's already claiming. Here 671 00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:21,160 Speaker 1: Luke drinking coke zero? Okay with ciss cist there, Luke. 672 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: Remember when my neighbor, Joe the barber, would would come 673 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: out and see me in the morning and he'd go 674 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:29,760 Speaker 1: a sister. You know what I mean? 675 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 2: That was gross. 676 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 1: That was pretty gross. But I love that guy. Yeah, damn, 677 00:32:34,760 --> 00:32:36,920 Speaker 1: this is gonna be great. So the more to gain 678 00:32:37,080 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: for Gary is the possibility of cutting the line. What 679 00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: I want to see him cut Shavcott. Hell no, unless 680 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: Chafcott was still hurt. Let's be fair. Moral victory, yes, 681 00:32:47,520 --> 00:32:51,040 Speaker 1: but Shafcott rightfully won that fight. It is crowded atop 682 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,840 Speaker 1: there with Buckley, with Brady, but as Gary mentioned, he 683 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:55,520 Speaker 1: seems to have one up on them. I don't know 684 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,520 Speaker 1: if he's gonna need a domin well, he probably would. 685 00:32:57,640 --> 00:33:01,160 Speaker 1: He'll probably need a dominant win and or finish for 686 00:33:01,280 --> 00:33:03,960 Speaker 1: this to be likely. But the other people in this division, 687 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: they kind of laugh at what he's saying that this victory, 688 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:10,000 Speaker 1: if he gets it, should lift him. Here. In fact, 689 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: we have Sean Brady going to IG and dunking on him, saying, 690 00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 1: biggest claim to fame is losing a decision to Shavkat, 691 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: crying like a baby. He didn't get a title shot 692 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: off of a loss, and now he's claiming that he 693 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 1: will get the title if he beats number thirteen. Make 694 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 1: it make sense? Zero Top five wins, calls himself an 695 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 1: elite striker but held on for dear life against MVP. Look, 696 00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,680 Speaker 1: these are not incorrect facts, right like, there is a 697 00:33:34,720 --> 00:33:36,479 Speaker 1: case against it, and we have one more and then 698 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: I'll get your reaction. This is new Manza. Joaquin Buckley saying, 699 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:44,040 Speaker 1: just don't get knocked out because Ian Buck versus Cook 700 00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:48,120 Speaker 1: for the belt going feed nations, Yeah, tell him, got it, Buckley, 701 00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 1: Buck versus Cook is fantastic, right, dude. 702 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you I always wanted to see that fight. 703 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 2: They almost made the fight. Blah blah blah. I really 704 00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,520 Speaker 2: want to see that fight. I really want, because both 705 00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 2: are going to talk. Both are on a hot streak, 706 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:04,440 Speaker 2: you know, relatively speaking. I know Ian's come with the 707 00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 2: loss whatever, but you know what I mean in general, 708 00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:08,959 Speaker 2: I can't wait to see that one. 709 00:34:09,000 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: Well, speak on the prize here, Where does either man 710 00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: go with a win? And is it dependent upon the 711 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: possibility of a stoppage? 712 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:21,160 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone's in titled contention here. I think 713 00:34:21,280 --> 00:34:24,959 Speaker 2: Projest has beaten good fighters, but his last win, last 714 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:27,040 Speaker 2: two wins were over at Lee Jiing Lang, who's just 715 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:28,800 Speaker 2: not the same as he once was, and Neil Magne 716 00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:32,520 Speaker 2: He's got some work to do. By contrast, Gary is 717 00:34:32,560 --> 00:34:34,719 Speaker 2: further along. He's got wins over Magni and then Jeff 718 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 2: Neil and then obviously MVP. Of course he came up 719 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 2: short against Shot Company, took that one in short notice, 720 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,440 Speaker 2: took this one in short notice. So I think if 721 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 2: you're Gary, this puts you into pretty elite potential spaces, 722 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:48,840 Speaker 2: you know, top five ish something like that, right around 723 00:34:48,840 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 2: that area. But it doesn't leap fraud dude, Sean Brady 724 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:56,320 Speaker 2: just fucking manhandled Leon Edwards, like man handled him. He's 725 00:34:56,400 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 2: not jumping Sean Brady. I mean he might in the sad. 726 00:34:59,440 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 1: Do you like he sit out or do you have 727 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:05,600 Speaker 1: to make him fight? Either Brady or the other name 728 00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:07,600 Speaker 1: we mentioned there? Uh not? Who the hell am I 729 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: thinking of? 730 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 2: Buck Brady Luckley? 731 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,400 Speaker 1: Sorry fucking yeah, which one do you think they give him? 732 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:15,120 Speaker 2: The Buckley one is the one I want to see 733 00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 2: the most. Brady to me is in a little bit 734 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:19,880 Speaker 2: of a different place. Also, Brady and Brady called him out. 735 00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 2: I interviewed Brady one time a while ago, and Brady 736 00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 2: Brady called him out. They have the same manager, and 737 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 2: so I know that that's something that he really, really 738 00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 2: really wants. And I will tell you, like Brady on 739 00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 2: the you know, on the feet, I'd be curious to 740 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 2: see because credit to him, Ian Gary has very good 741 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 2: tickdown defense, very good tickdown defense. But if it got 742 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:44,640 Speaker 2: to the ground, Sean Brady would fucking would would absolutely 743 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,719 Speaker 2: vaporize him. It would be real fucking bad for him. 744 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,279 Speaker 2: So that makes it. But on the feet, on the 745 00:35:50,320 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 2: feet could be a different story. And his takedown defense 746 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 2: very good for all these reasons. B see this weltraweight 747 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:02,000 Speaker 2: division is reborn. All this this is we talked about 748 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 2: this in lightweight A million times. I know, sound like 749 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:05,840 Speaker 2: a broken record, but look at how much better a 750 00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:10,000 Speaker 2: division is when there's effective turnover. When there's effective turnover 751 00:36:10,360 --> 00:36:14,240 Speaker 2: from one generation to the next, it's so much goddamn fun. 752 00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,480 Speaker 2: One of my favorite times in a fighter's career is 753 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,040 Speaker 2: not just when they win the belt and then they're 754 00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,440 Speaker 2: on their title winning ways. It's the path to it. 755 00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 2: What did they do to it? How did they make 756 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 2: you reimagine who they are? How did they confirm who 757 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: they are? What did they do along that path? To me, 758 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,759 Speaker 2: that's the thing that says the most about them, And 759 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:37,120 Speaker 2: for a very real but otherwise brief blemish ian Gary 760 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 2: has been extremely impressive and I think a good win 761 00:36:40,120 --> 00:36:42,359 Speaker 2: here should he be able to get it, gives him 762 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 2: so many options, but it's the Buckley one that I 763 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 2: want to see the most. 764 00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not against all of that, and protests would 765 00:36:47,719 --> 00:36:50,759 Speaker 1: be further away, but boy boy, would his name take 766 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:53,560 Speaker 1: a huge leap with a win here, So let's talk 767 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,400 Speaker 1: about it. No Cito believes it's Gary by stoppage in 768 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:01,160 Speaker 1: the second half, Luke, I recognize the danger protest. There's 769 00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,000 Speaker 1: a lot of ways he could make this hell for Gary. 770 00:37:04,040 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 1: And expose him because if he gets to that chin, 771 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:09,560 Speaker 1: he does it calmly with that length, and boy does 772 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,319 Speaker 1: he close that gap and land big shots. But I 773 00:37:12,360 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 1: think Gary's defensive intangibles, the IQ, the evolution, it is 774 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:18,799 Speaker 1: going to be too much, and I think it may 775 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 1: even come down to the too much level that he 776 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 1: gets a late submission Long Island. Luca updating me, he's 777 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:27,440 Speaker 1: actually going Gary by decision, so I misread his early comments. 778 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:30,600 Speaker 1: So no, Cita's got Gary by decision. I'm gonna go 779 00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 1: Gary by fourth round rear naked choke. It would say 780 00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,120 Speaker 1: a lot about where he stands in this division if 781 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:38,680 Speaker 1: he did exactly what I'm saying. Luke Thomas, I know 782 00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:41,799 Speaker 1: you believe protest is in this fight, and your damn 783 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: righty can win it. But who does win it? Saturday Night? 784 00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 2: Give me Ian Gary? Give me Ian Gary. I like 785 00:37:48,920 --> 00:37:53,120 Speaker 2: Ian Gary. I think that he's got real limits that 786 00:37:53,200 --> 00:37:55,000 Speaker 2: I have picked up on on tape, and I'm sure 787 00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:56,839 Speaker 2: you know his coaches and everybody else who watches tape 788 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,560 Speaker 2: as as well. There are things that I think are 789 00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 2: like so frustrating to watch, and in particular, the most 790 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 2: frustrating thing to watch is his improper finishing mechanics on submissions. 791 00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:09,600 Speaker 2: But these things can be worked on, they can be tweaked, 792 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 2: they can be improved, and all the other pieces around, 793 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:15,439 Speaker 2: at least many of the other pieces they're already there 794 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:19,399 Speaker 2: and not just they're quite good, very good man. I'm 795 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:21,560 Speaker 2: telling you, I really believe. I don't know if this 796 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 2: is the fight or not, because he could get slept 797 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 2: in a round. It really is that. You know, protest 798 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:28,800 Speaker 2: is dangerous, That's exactly what he is. But Ian Gary, 799 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,760 Speaker 2: to me, has what it takes. If he can really 800 00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,120 Speaker 2: really make a move here and work on his craft, 801 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:37,920 Speaker 2: he can be something special in this division. Whether it 802 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 2: starts on Saturday, you know, I guess I'll have to 803 00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,279 Speaker 2: see the complexion of the fight, but I do think 804 00:38:41,280 --> 00:38:42,120 Speaker 2: he gets his hand. 805 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:45,359 Speaker 1: Raised along Island look lightning. Quick response from you. We're 806 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,080 Speaker 1: going chalk here the slight favorite the three of us, 807 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: but the fighting nerds are red hot. People love protest. 808 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: What do you think has been the pulse of the 809 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: Donk nation on who wins this on Saturday? 810 00:38:56,840 --> 00:38:58,919 Speaker 6: I think majority of people are going protest, But again, 811 00:38:58,960 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 6: I don't know if it's just because he's such your 812 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 6: fan favorite and people don't like Ian Gary. 813 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,319 Speaker 5: I think people are letting that get to their heads 814 00:39:04,320 --> 00:39:04,600 Speaker 5: too much. 815 00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 1: I mean, look, I'm gonna be honest like Ian Gary 816 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:08,560 Speaker 1: is a pompous pos in a lot of times, like 817 00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: he's he's hard to be fully uh you know, on 818 00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 1: board for in terms of sharing. But the dude's pretty 819 00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,399 Speaker 1: damn good and I think he's on his way to great, Luke, 820 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: when you look up and down the rest of this 821 00:39:18,239 --> 00:39:21,080 Speaker 1: KC Fight Night card, I don't think the name's good 822 00:39:21,160 --> 00:39:23,480 Speaker 1: or great will appear in much of our analysis. But 823 00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 1: we're not here to go on about that. We know 824 00:39:26,320 --> 00:39:28,880 Speaker 1: what era we're in. Now, Let's talk about the fights. 825 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:33,200 Speaker 1: Let's talk about this co main event. When former title 826 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,719 Speaker 1: challenger Anthony Smith is a plus three point fifty underdog 827 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: against Jiang Minyang, who's a nearly five to one favorite 828 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,120 Speaker 1: at light heavyweights, make me care about this, Luke. 829 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:49,279 Speaker 2: This one's a weird one, to be honest with you, because, Uh, 830 00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:56,799 Speaker 2: Jiang Minyang is not good. He's not good. He's not 831 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 2: he's not he's not very good. The nickname is Amazing 832 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:04,839 Speaker 2: Mountain Tiger. That's a fucking sick nickname. But listen, he 833 00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 2: is gonna stand in the pocket and fucking trade. And 834 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 2: he does have decent punching mechanics. He's not like completely wild, 835 00:40:10,719 --> 00:40:13,319 Speaker 2: like he'll throw straight hooks, and you know, he puts 836 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:16,000 Speaker 2: things together. Got a little bit of head movement, but 837 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:19,520 Speaker 2: really not much. Mostly just gets tagged and then fucking 838 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:24,040 Speaker 2: baits guys into brawling with him, and then you know, 839 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:26,719 Speaker 2: more often than not he wins. But he's not very good. 840 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:30,200 Speaker 2: But you know, in terms of total upside or at 841 00:40:30,280 --> 00:40:33,320 Speaker 2: least what they whatever in terms of their potential, Anthony 842 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 2: Smith I think will probably end up going much further 843 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 2: than Jang ever will. But you know, this is his 844 00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:42,279 Speaker 2: retirement fight, and got his stats are so upside down. 845 00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 2: Anthony Smith strikes landing per minute three point two strikes, 846 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:49,480 Speaker 2: absorb four point eight. Jesus, that's a negative differential in 847 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:52,719 Speaker 2: a way that's kind of remarkable. So to me, it's 848 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,080 Speaker 2: like the you know, a better version of Anthony Smith 849 00:40:56,080 --> 00:40:58,600 Speaker 2: would wipe the floor with this guy. But I just 850 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,120 Speaker 2: don't know where Smith is at. I do think the 851 00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,399 Speaker 2: odds are a little crazy because I'm gonna say it again, 852 00:41:02,440 --> 00:41:07,000 Speaker 2: like on the ground, the Jang's not good, he's not 853 00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:11,520 Speaker 2: he's not he's not good. So Smith might be able 854 00:41:11,560 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 2: to get a submission here. But it's a weird fight 855 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:16,640 Speaker 2: because it's just, you know, the end of the road 856 00:41:16,719 --> 00:41:19,560 Speaker 2: for a guy who you know, had I think, a 857 00:41:19,560 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 2: pretty respectable career, but it appears to be you know, 858 00:41:22,200 --> 00:41:23,319 Speaker 2: it's time to close it off. 859 00:41:23,440 --> 00:41:26,400 Speaker 1: So Smith is thirty six, he's officially lost two in 860 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:29,839 Speaker 1: a row and five of his last seven in totality. 861 00:41:30,200 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 1: He did submit Vitor Petrino. He did get a split decision, 862 00:41:33,200 --> 00:41:38,440 Speaker 1: went over Ryan Span and a lot of those were finishes. Uh, 863 00:41:38,520 --> 00:41:41,799 Speaker 1: Luke this Uh, I don't know if Smith can take 864 00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 1: shots anymore. You know, the fight of late for him. 865 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: He comes in ready to go. He's always gonna go 866 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:51,719 Speaker 1: through hell if he has to, but it feels like 867 00:41:51,800 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 1: he's in hell quicker each fight, and then he's in 868 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,239 Speaker 1: the fetal position and you're like, damn, man, this guy 869 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:01,680 Speaker 1: is willing to take too much wet there quickly lately, Luke, 870 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:02,879 Speaker 1: I don't want to see that again. 871 00:42:04,880 --> 00:42:07,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't want to see that again either. 872 00:42:09,400 --> 00:42:11,040 Speaker 1: He's a great guy. I love this guy. I know 873 00:42:11,080 --> 00:42:15,920 Speaker 1: he wants to start a regional slat promotion. Good lord, Anthony, 874 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: come on, man, you gotta be better than that. 875 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:21,200 Speaker 2: It's a really really remarkably bad idea, but you know 876 00:42:21,400 --> 00:42:23,080 Speaker 2: it's probably a good idea that you know, I think 877 00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:25,919 Speaker 2: at this stage of his dude, Lionhard has what he's 878 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:29,400 Speaker 2: got fucking more than fifty fights, or just about fifty fights. 879 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:31,240 Speaker 2: I mean, excuse me, what am I even saying closer 880 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:32,520 Speaker 2: to sixty fights at this point? 881 00:42:32,600 --> 00:42:36,319 Speaker 6: So so wait, he said on Ariel this week that 882 00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,240 Speaker 6: half of his fights aren't even on like topology or anything. 883 00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 5: He has closer to sixty five pro fights us. 884 00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, crazy, Yeah, it's time. It's time to call it 885 00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:45,279 Speaker 2: a day. 886 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,839 Speaker 1: I think, all right, well, we'll see what happens in here. Luke, 887 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:50,720 Speaker 1: I'm sure you have a better thing to say about 888 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 1: this featherweight matchup that I think is promising all action 889 00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:57,480 Speaker 1: in very close odds. Giga Chakadze, who just missed Wait, 890 00:42:57,560 --> 00:42:59,880 Speaker 1: according to Long Island Luke, for this bout is a 891 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:03,240 Speaker 1: plus one fifty betting underdog against the minus one eighty 892 00:43:03,600 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 1: David Onama. Luke, you can't argue that the stakes are 893 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 1: high in this one, but can you argue that we 894 00:43:08,560 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 1: should be talking about it? Yeah? 895 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:14,920 Speaker 2: I'm actually very surprised by this one. They have Now, Okay, okay, 896 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,759 Speaker 2: before I learned he missed weight, I'll tell you what 897 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 2: I felt like. And apparently Long Island looks tongue as 898 00:43:21,160 --> 00:43:23,879 Speaker 2: he has fifteen minutes to reweigh in, so he might 899 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 2: end up making it. But before I found that out, 900 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,160 Speaker 2: I was watching tape on Onama and I was like, Okay, 901 00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:34,240 Speaker 2: it's he's fine, you know, but I didn't see anything like, 902 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 2: like particularly remarkable about it. And then I saw the 903 00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:39,440 Speaker 2: odds and that they had him as a favorite. I 904 00:43:39,440 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 2: gotta tell you again, it's not like Shakazi's not without 905 00:43:43,360 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 2: known limits. And if he's missing weight and it could 906 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:47,799 Speaker 2: portend to other issues, well that's a different story. But 907 00:43:47,960 --> 00:43:51,640 Speaker 2: like if that's not the case and it's just like 908 00:43:52,520 --> 00:43:54,879 Speaker 2: skill for skill, I don't understand how they can make 909 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:56,640 Speaker 2: Onama a favorite. I find out the one to be 910 00:43:56,680 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 2: baffling to me. Chikazi has shown much higher upside and 911 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,240 Speaker 2: is much better. But I guess there's a question about 912 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,240 Speaker 2: like the ground game and like to what extent Oama 913 00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,799 Speaker 2: could exploit that. But you know, he's often been on 914 00:44:09,840 --> 00:44:12,239 Speaker 2: the receiving end of a lot of takedowns himself. Like 915 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 2: I don't know, like, let's see what kind of condition 916 00:44:15,120 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 2: Chikazi is in, but I feel like if he's in 917 00:44:17,520 --> 00:44:19,640 Speaker 2: normal condition for what we would expect from him in 918 00:44:19,640 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 2: his career, he should win this fight. I'm very surprised 919 00:44:21,800 --> 00:44:22,360 Speaker 2: by the odds. 920 00:44:22,680 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 1: All Right, interesting stuff right there. We also have Michelle Pordeda, 921 00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:29,000 Speaker 1: who lost his eight fight win streak and a stoppage 922 00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:32,239 Speaker 1: against Fluffy Hernandez at middleweight, will be a minus one 923 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:35,719 Speaker 1: forty two favorite against a boost Mago Metoff. Yeah, he's 924 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:38,759 Speaker 1: back plus one twenty. Look, he may have the name 925 00:44:38,840 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 1: Maga Metoff, but he definitely doesn't instill that same level 926 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:46,200 Speaker 1: of fear and respect, although I respect it. 927 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 2: Luke, Yeah, I mean he's good. He just has terrible cardio. Yeah, 928 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:55,239 Speaker 2: he just this terrible cardio. Uh and Michelle Pereira trying 929 00:44:55,239 --> 00:44:57,399 Speaker 2: to like, you know, fix his game and everything and 930 00:44:57,800 --> 00:45:00,759 Speaker 2: become a little less insane. But he also doesn't have 931 00:45:00,840 --> 00:45:04,279 Speaker 2: great cardio, So this fight might suck. B See, I 932 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:04,719 Speaker 2: don't know. 933 00:45:05,520 --> 00:45:09,520 Speaker 1: He guesses themselves out on the walk end, that'll be great, Yeah. 934 00:45:09,160 --> 00:45:11,839 Speaker 2: Good en route to them gassing out, Like he could 935 00:45:11,880 --> 00:45:14,319 Speaker 2: actually go either way, so let's be fair of that. 936 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:18,320 Speaker 1: You know, Randy Brown, Nicholas Dalby, Walter Wait's Brown nearly 937 00:45:18,320 --> 00:45:19,280 Speaker 1: a three to one favorite. 938 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 2: Do you care? Yeah, I think Brown deserves to be 939 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,040 Speaker 2: I think he Brown's a pretty good fighter. d'Albi had 940 00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:25,400 Speaker 2: a moment in the sun where he was pretty good. 941 00:45:25,440 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 2: I think he had a big redemption arc, which is 942 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 2: great to see. But I think Brown's a little bit 943 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:30,080 Speaker 2: better than him at this point. 944 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,640 Speaker 1: All right, thirty two year old Ikram Alascarov will kick 945 00:45:33,640 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 1: off this six fight main card in his first appearance 946 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:40,640 Speaker 1: since that one sided first round KO defeat to the 947 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:45,320 Speaker 1: great Robert Whittaker. He Aliskaroff will be a minus five 948 00:45:45,680 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 1: twenty betting favorite more than five to one against the 949 00:45:49,360 --> 00:45:53,200 Speaker 1: plus three to ninety Andre Muniz. Luke, the odds makers 950 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:55,880 Speaker 1: are telling you this could go down pretty one sided. 951 00:45:55,920 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts? 952 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree. I mean Andre Muniz had a moment 953 00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:00,960 Speaker 2: there where he was admitting a bunch of people and 954 00:46:01,000 --> 00:46:02,640 Speaker 2: you're like, oh, wow, this guy might be great. Like 955 00:46:02,680 --> 00:46:04,759 Speaker 2: here comes the middleweight submission specialist. I know we got 956 00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:06,920 Speaker 2: GM three, but here's another one. And then he just 957 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 2: kind of fell apart, and I don't think he's ever 958 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,440 Speaker 2: been put back together again. Alice scare Off, all right, 959 00:46:11,480 --> 00:46:13,919 Speaker 2: he fell short against Robert Whitaker. So fucking what. Robert 960 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:17,440 Speaker 2: Whittaker is awesome, Alice scare off me should win this 961 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,840 Speaker 2: one walking away, I'd be very surprised if he doesn't. 962 00:46:21,239 --> 00:46:23,120 Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you. I had to close the door 963 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,279 Speaker 1: of Reggie's here.

I don't know if 988 00:47:37,160 --> 00:47:39,879 Speaker 2: Long On, Luke, you got any bangers that you got 989 00:47:39,920 --> 00:47:42,640 Speaker 2: your eye on on that prelim portion of the card, I. 990 00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 6: Mean, the featured prelim although both guys have retired from 991 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 6: their professional MMA careers and come back. Jimmy Flick versus match, No, 992 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:51,080 Speaker 6: I mean, that's just gonna be a barn burner. 993 00:47:51,080 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 2: One of them that snows should beat him, right. 994 00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:55,879 Speaker 5: He should, but one of them is getting put to sleep, 995 00:47:55,960 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 5: let's be real. 996 00:47:56,800 --> 00:47:57,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 997 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 5: Also, I want to say, just no idea how this 998 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:01,720 Speaker 5: fight's ago. Don't even really know one of the guys. 999 00:48:01,719 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 6: But Evan Elder versus Gage young Elder versus Young that's 1000 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:07,520 Speaker 6: a great gimmick fight right there. 1001 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:09,279 Speaker 5: You know that I think the Elder is gonna pull 1002 00:48:09,320 --> 00:48:09,640 Speaker 5: it off? 1003 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:14,399 Speaker 2: Is that what we're reduced to now? 1004 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 1: I mean, I've tried to get worse jokes over but wow, 1005 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:22,800 Speaker 1: Long look, yeah. 1006 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:24,080 Speaker 2: Did you see those two. I think they were either 1007 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:27,480 Speaker 2: college or maybe now they're NBA players. One was a 1008 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,839 Speaker 2: white guy whose last name was his last name is Dick, 1009 00:48:30,880 --> 00:48:33,399 Speaker 2: and it was black and they did Yeah, they did 1010 00:48:33,400 --> 00:48:36,560 Speaker 2: the black Dick Swabby Jersey Swapy. 1011 00:48:36,560 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: I'm down with that, Luke. I'm down with the believe 1012 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:42,760 Speaker 1: it all right. So that's your UFC Kansas City card. 1013 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:46,799 Speaker 1: Pollyanna Vianna's on there. Look your guy Cameron Simon's back. 1014 00:48:46,840 --> 00:48:48,040 Speaker 1: You didn't mention him once? 1015 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, for good reason. I'm not. I'm not mad at 1016 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 2: him or anything. 1017 00:48:53,320 --> 00:48:57,960 Speaker 1: But okay, Luke, let's go to topic number two. Is 1018 00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:03,440 Speaker 1: there big trouble in Little China? In Little China when 1019 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,879 Speaker 1: it comes to making the biggest fight they can John 1020 00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:08,840 Speaker 1: Jones versus Tom Aspinall. Well, look, there's been trouble for 1021 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: a while, right, it hasn't been made yet, although I 1022 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,560 Speaker 1: have to believe the expectations of this thing going off 1023 00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:19,360 Speaker 1: November and MSG are somewhere percentage wise. The question is 1024 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 1: how high, Luke, Because one day after publicly declaring that 1025 00:49:23,200 --> 00:49:27,640 Speaker 1: Jones Aspinall was signed, sealed, delivered, and ready to be announced, 1026 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,520 Speaker 1: Chelse son In pulled in about face. This did not 1027 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:34,840 Speaker 1: take place at the Luxer, but he's now reporting that 1028 00:49:34,960 --> 00:49:39,400 Speaker 1: a Tom Aspinall Serial Gone interim heavyweight title fight is 1029 00:49:39,440 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 1: what really is on pace to be next. I think 1030 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,080 Speaker 1: you add into that reporting from Mario Howani in the 1031 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 1: last two days that suggests the UFC has done everything 1032 00:49:49,280 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 1: in their power to do this fight and that the 1033 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:56,319 Speaker 1: blame should probably shift toward John Jones. Luke as we 1034 00:49:56,400 --> 00:50:01,520 Speaker 1: stand right now April twenty fifth, twenty twenty five, read 1035 00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:03,600 Speaker 1: through the tea leaves here, what's the best you can 1036 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:06,719 Speaker 1: do to try to surmise what is really happening and 1037 00:50:06,840 --> 00:50:10,680 Speaker 1: whether this is on pace to be a monster monster 1038 00:50:10,760 --> 00:50:13,880 Speaker 1: disappointment in the fact of the fight not going off. 1039 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:23,319 Speaker 2: I mean, what is the reaction of the fan base 1040 00:50:23,440 --> 00:50:29,520 Speaker 2: going to be if they make Aspinall Gone BC, Like, 1041 00:50:29,560 --> 00:50:30,920 Speaker 2: what would the reaction of the fan. 1042 00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: Base, especially for an interim title. 1043 00:50:32,640 --> 00:50:33,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess that interim title. 1044 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 1: Oh my god, I mean what would be worse? What 1045 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:37,799 Speaker 1: would be the fan reaction worse if it was a 1046 00:50:37,800 --> 00:50:40,720 Speaker 1: full title meaning Jones is done, or an interim title 1047 00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: meaning Jones is still negotiating. I don't know, Like, is 1048 00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 1: it just. 1049 00:50:46,320 --> 00:50:48,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean I think it would be bad. Either way, 1050 00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:50,160 Speaker 2: but like just sort of game it out. If he 1051 00:50:50,239 --> 00:50:52,880 Speaker 2: got the interim title, you'd be frustrated, but there would 1052 00:50:52,920 --> 00:50:56,360 Speaker 2: still be a lingering hope that John might fight at 1053 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:58,680 Speaker 2: a later time, right, because it's the interim title still 1054 00:50:58,680 --> 00:51:00,600 Speaker 2: being on the line. It would be or to have 1055 00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,000 Speaker 2: to defend the interim title that many times. And by 1056 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,960 Speaker 2: the way, I just want to point this out. Remember 1057 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,400 Speaker 2: John was like, I don't even know why they created 1058 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,920 Speaker 2: an interim title. Yeah, this is why. This is why, 1059 00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:16,920 Speaker 2: because you won't defend it, so somebody's got to, right, 1060 00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:19,239 Speaker 2: That's the whole note. I remember when they created that 1061 00:51:19,239 --> 00:51:21,000 Speaker 2: title's yea, they didn't even need to create one. No, 1062 00:51:21,120 --> 00:51:24,400 Speaker 2: they actually did. They actually did. That was one of 1063 00:51:24,440 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 2: the few interim titles in retrospect you're like, wow, that 1064 00:51:27,000 --> 00:51:28,879 Speaker 2: was actually a good call. That was actually a really 1065 00:51:28,880 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 2: important one. That one was quite necessary. On the other hand, BC, 1066 00:51:33,120 --> 00:51:34,799 Speaker 2: if you end up getting a spot where you get 1067 00:51:34,800 --> 00:51:37,320 Speaker 2: aspinall God, but it's for the full on title. Okay, 1068 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,760 Speaker 2: you now you can move on. Now whatever was gonna 1069 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 2: happen is past and you can just move on. But 1070 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:46,000 Speaker 2: we'll have waited all this time. John is just by 1071 00:51:46,280 --> 00:51:49,359 Speaker 2: Fiat and sitting around potentially going to break the record 1072 00:51:49,400 --> 00:51:51,560 Speaker 2: for the longest title reign, and he did it against 1073 00:51:51,560 --> 00:51:55,120 Speaker 2: a guy who's got you know, at best blue belt 1074 00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,879 Speaker 2: level grappling and Cyril Gone and even that I think 1075 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:00,680 Speaker 2: is a promotion. And then in you know, the corps 1076 00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,480 Speaker 2: of Steve Ba Miochich and he might be the longest 1077 00:52:02,480 --> 00:52:05,120 Speaker 2: reigning champion, and then for him to bail if that's 1078 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 2: the what ends up happening in the end, even after 1079 00:52:08,120 --> 00:52:11,160 Speaker 2: the UFC has reportedly made efforts at you know, I 1080 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,200 Speaker 2: do not believe that they're offering him thirty million. I 1081 00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:16,520 Speaker 2: don't think that's really at all true, but probably you know, 1082 00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:20,560 Speaker 2: a historic payday relative to what the organization has historically 1083 00:52:20,840 --> 00:52:24,879 Speaker 2: paid out. If you get to that point, I think 1084 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 2: there would be extreme disdain towards John, but you know, 1085 00:52:29,719 --> 00:52:30,600 Speaker 2: I've lived there, had. 1086 00:52:30,480 --> 00:52:32,880 Speaker 1: To be disdained for everybody that we're at this point 1087 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: and we still don't even know if this fight's gonna happen, 1088 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:35,719 Speaker 1: like not not. 1089 00:52:35,640 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 2: For Tom, not for Tom. But Tom's doing anything he 1090 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 2: can do, so no. 1091 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:41,320 Speaker 1: He's wasting his prime. 1092 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:43,200 Speaker 2: What the fuck is he supposed to do? 1093 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 1: I'm saying they're they're fucking them over this whole situation 1094 00:52:46,800 --> 00:52:49,000 Speaker 1: is fucked. It's like, now the Latest News wants you 1095 00:52:49,120 --> 00:52:52,080 Speaker 1: to pick. Basically, are you blaming UFC? Are you blaming John? 1096 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:54,960 Speaker 1: I'm blaming them all. Like make just just like make 1097 00:52:55,000 --> 00:52:56,839 Speaker 1: the decision, please figure this out. 1098 00:52:56,880 --> 00:52:59,279 Speaker 2: I guess what I would say is, you know, I 1099 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:02,040 Speaker 2: don't know what the UFC can tell us. I don't 1100 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 2: know what they can't tell us. But it just feels 1101 00:53:05,080 --> 00:53:08,880 Speaker 2: like we never get any information about anything and where 1102 00:53:08,920 --> 00:53:10,640 Speaker 2: this is going. And I understand again a lot of 1103 00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 2: this has to be kept secret. They're they're they're they're working, 1104 00:53:12,960 --> 00:53:14,439 Speaker 2: and if the UFC is really put on a full 1105 00:53:14,480 --> 00:53:16,319 Speaker 2: court press on him to like, hey, we're gonna make 1106 00:53:16,320 --> 00:53:18,439 Speaker 2: You're gonna offer you more money. You know we're gonna 1107 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,200 Speaker 2: put it, I'm gonna guess they're gonna want to put 1108 00:53:20,200 --> 00:53:22,600 Speaker 2: it for Madison Square Garden and blah blah blah. But 1109 00:53:22,680 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 2: this is what I mean about all of these like 1110 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,800 Speaker 2: social media posts where these guys meet with Hunter and 1111 00:53:26,880 --> 00:53:29,440 Speaker 2: Dana or whoever, and then they come out they're big, 1112 00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,200 Speaker 2: stay tuned, big announcement, and then like six months passes 1113 00:53:32,200 --> 00:53:35,520 Speaker 2: and there's no fucking announcement. I have no tolerance for that. Anymore. 1114 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 2: It doesn't mean anything to me. Either give us information 1115 00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 2: that we can use or make a decision and move on. 1116 00:53:41,600 --> 00:53:43,880 Speaker 2: But like, dude, we've just been like John Jones at 1117 00:53:43,880 --> 00:53:48,399 Speaker 2: heavyweight has just been the infinite void of nothingness. It's 1118 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:54,279 Speaker 2: just time off, time away, no information. Reggie Jackson looking 1119 00:53:54,320 --> 00:53:57,319 Speaker 2: at your balls? What is that? 1120 00:53:57,719 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 1: Is that the scratch Reggie's backscratcher? 1121 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:00,239 Speaker 12: Right? 1122 00:54:00,640 --> 00:54:03,239 Speaker 2: Oh, look at Red Yeah. 1123 00:54:03,120 --> 00:54:05,480 Speaker 1: You know you got to keep your people happy. 1124 00:54:05,480 --> 00:54:08,600 Speaker 2: Wow, I mean REDG is about to fucking have it 1125 00:54:08,640 --> 00:54:09,120 Speaker 2: out for you. 1126 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:12,600 Speaker 1: Oh all right, this is you know, we've gone too far? 1127 00:54:13,880 --> 00:54:16,080 Speaker 2: Did you see my point? Like he might end up 1128 00:54:16,120 --> 00:54:17,920 Speaker 2: having the longest title reign and it would be an 1129 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,759 Speaker 2: undefeated title reign, assuming he just calls it a day, 1130 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:24,280 Speaker 2: and it would be the most empty calories on any 1131 00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:27,640 Speaker 2: UFC run short of Nico Montagno that I could think of. 1132 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,959 Speaker 2: It's absolutely nothing to it. 1133 00:54:29,920 --> 00:54:34,600 Speaker 1: Because the UFC has enabled this specific title reign, which 1134 00:54:34,719 --> 00:54:38,600 Speaker 1: is not fraudulent. He did be gone when and GNU 1135 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,279 Speaker 1: wasn't available, although John sat out three years before that 1136 00:54:42,280 --> 00:54:45,560 Speaker 1: when and Ghana was available. But like I'm at the 1137 00:54:45,560 --> 00:54:48,640 Speaker 1: point now where I'm like, UFC, you have to fix this. 1138 00:54:48,640 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 1: This is on you, even if John is trying to 1139 00:54:50,920 --> 00:54:53,439 Speaker 1: hold you up for every dollar, which might be within 1140 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:57,520 Speaker 1: his right. You've created this mess by allowing him to 1141 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 1: sit out injured for more than a year, pushing the 1142 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,759 Speaker 1: steep back to fight back another year when remember I 1143 00:55:02,840 --> 00:55:05,239 Speaker 1: was the one defending it a year earlier, Like, hey, 1144 00:55:05,280 --> 00:55:07,640 Speaker 1: we still kind of need this historically, don't you know, 1145 00:55:07,719 --> 00:55:10,600 Speaker 1: don't fret this will be fine. No, they waited another 1146 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:12,759 Speaker 1: year to put it out there, but I do have 1147 00:55:12,800 --> 00:55:15,919 Speaker 1: to question the news coming from jail. And we'll play 1148 00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,239 Speaker 1: his video to hear his tone and we can judge. 1149 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 1: But like it feels to me like it's just aggressive 1150 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: public negotiation to be like John, if you don't sign, 1151 00:55:24,040 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: we got a backup plan and it's ready now. Only 1152 00:55:26,560 --> 00:55:28,920 Speaker 1: the backup plan is not impressive at all to step 1153 00:55:28,960 --> 00:55:34,360 Speaker 1: down in every single measurement that let's hear Chaill on 1154 00:55:34,440 --> 00:55:35,799 Speaker 1: his original report here. 1155 00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 13: No, I am confident enough to tell you that that 1156 00:55:39,160 --> 00:55:41,880 Speaker 13: fight is done. Though that fight is agreed all the 1157 00:55:41,880 --> 00:55:44,080 Speaker 13: way down to the day international fight. We could be 1158 00:55:44,160 --> 00:55:47,200 Speaker 13: perfect sense I personally just I always thought they were 1159 00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:48,239 Speaker 13: gonna go back to New York. 1160 00:55:48,960 --> 00:55:50,759 Speaker 1: Jones said he needs four months. 1161 00:55:51,320 --> 00:55:54,440 Speaker 2: Now you're gonna do it telling you this John Jones business. 1162 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:56,719 Speaker 13: Jones will say a lot of things to the media 1163 00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:58,680 Speaker 13: when they when he gets that phone call. 1164 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 2: Here's the guy you're do you understand? 1165 00:56:01,440 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 3: Yes? 1166 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:04,239 Speaker 13: And that is what he will say. All the other 1167 00:56:04,320 --> 00:56:06,480 Speaker 13: reports are not true. John has come out, He's been 1168 00:56:06,520 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 13: a trolley's had some fun. He even try to negotiate 1169 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:11,919 Speaker 13: in the media privately. He takes that phone call, it's 1170 00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:14,160 Speaker 13: yes or anything else that comes out of his mouth. 1171 00:56:14,200 --> 00:56:16,600 Speaker 13: Any answer that's not yes is not yes. But that 1172 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:17,440 Speaker 13: did not happen. 1173 00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:20,040 Speaker 2: That is a false report. John Jones has not ducked 1174 00:56:20,040 --> 00:56:20,359 Speaker 2: this fight. 1175 00:56:20,440 --> 00:56:21,120 Speaker 1: I wish he did. 1176 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 2: I'd love to bury him. 1177 00:56:22,600 --> 00:56:26,360 Speaker 1: He didn't. He did not duck Tom aspit okay, And 1178 00:56:26,360 --> 00:56:28,840 Speaker 1: then now the next day, har's Chail's. 1179 00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 14: Update because I am fully aware of the rumor. 1180 00:56:33,520 --> 00:56:36,440 Speaker 2: Now you guys probably haven't heard this. You're probably getting 1181 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:37,520 Speaker 2: this right from me. 1182 00:56:38,080 --> 00:56:40,040 Speaker 13: From the time this leaves my mouth to the time 1183 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,760 Speaker 13: we get this to California, turned around and onto. 1184 00:56:42,520 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 2: The internet is gonna be about forty minutes. 1185 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 13: So the only way I get scooped on this is 1186 00:56:45,760 --> 00:56:47,680 Speaker 13: if somebody hits me in forty minutes. But the current 1187 00:56:47,680 --> 00:56:51,520 Speaker 13: plan right now Todd aspitall first is surreal gone. 1188 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:57,880 Speaker 2: Are you ready? Are you ready? Are you ready for 1189 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:05,600 Speaker 2: the interim Championship? Now? I will back the moves. 1190 00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,640 Speaker 1: Look, I don't believe anything Jail says. I love the guy, 1191 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,319 Speaker 1: but come on, I'll add in the aerial comments that 1192 00:57:12,400 --> 00:57:14,719 Speaker 1: he gave Hill Wani said, Obviously, when fights don't come 1193 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,760 Speaker 1: to fruition, there's a multiple of reasons. It's not because 1194 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 1: of Tom aspinall. Who will decide whether this fight happens 1195 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 1: or not is John Jones. This is not breaking news, Ariel. 1196 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 1: We're going to say if John wants the deal to 1197 00:57:25,840 --> 00:57:28,160 Speaker 1: be done today, it could be done today. It has 1198 00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:30,480 Speaker 1: always been up to him. I believe the UFC has 1199 00:57:30,520 --> 00:57:33,000 Speaker 1: met all the demands in a very favorable way for 1200 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:36,200 Speaker 1: both guys. They both have demands. When the story is 1201 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:38,280 Speaker 1: written on this fight, if it doesn't come to fruition, 1202 00:57:38,720 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 1: it won't be on the UFC. I really think the 1203 00:57:40,960 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 1: UFC has done everything they could to make it happen. 1204 00:57:43,800 --> 00:57:46,400 Speaker 1: End quote Luke, what do you think? What do you 1205 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,440 Speaker 1: think here? Did they really meet the h the dollars 1206 00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:52,400 Speaker 1: John wanted? And is John having cold fee? I mean, 1207 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:55,160 Speaker 1: John's just becoming more of a supervillain with every day 1208 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 1: that this thing goes on. 1209 00:57:56,360 --> 00:58:00,000 Speaker 2: Dude, there should never be I mean, like, who else 1210 00:58:00,280 --> 00:58:04,520 Speaker 2: wouldn't be stripped after all of this? Yeah, and I understand, 1211 00:58:04,680 --> 00:58:07,600 Speaker 2: I understand. Oh, he has a claim. It's a real 1212 00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 2: one to being the best ever. I get it. This 1213 00:58:11,480 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 2: is not any ordinary champion, far from being an ordinary fighter. 1214 00:58:14,920 --> 00:58:17,280 Speaker 2: It's a very very special fighter in that regard. But like, 1215 00:58:17,360 --> 00:58:20,880 Speaker 2: this is fucking absurd. This is absurd. What I hope 1216 00:58:20,920 --> 00:58:23,480 Speaker 2: the UFC is doing and we really don't know. Again, 1217 00:58:23,520 --> 00:58:26,640 Speaker 2: we just don't get any information about anything that's ever concrete. 1218 00:58:27,320 --> 00:58:29,440 Speaker 2: What I hope that they're doing is realizing that this 1219 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 2: is the last This is the Alamo, right, this is 1220 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:35,080 Speaker 2: the Alamo. Like, whatever happens here, if you can't make 1221 00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:37,240 Speaker 2: it happen within a reasonable timeframe, you just have to 1222 00:58:37,240 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 2: call the whole thing off and then strip them and 1223 00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,520 Speaker 2: then move the fuck on or whatever they want to do. 1224 00:58:41,960 --> 00:58:44,400 Speaker 2: But like him asking for remember he was asking for 1225 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,480 Speaker 2: six months to get ready for aspinall, Like, dude, well 1226 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:48,880 Speaker 2: you get you got three years to get ready for 1227 00:58:48,920 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 2: all of this, and we had to wait another year 1228 00:58:51,120 --> 00:58:52,800 Speaker 2: when he injured his shoulder, not his fault, but he 1229 00:58:52,880 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 2: injured his shoulder, they had more time off. No is 1230 00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 2: the fucking answer? No? No, Well final lessing on this 1231 00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 2: go ahead? Like I want to. This is my belief. 1232 00:59:04,720 --> 00:59:07,200 Speaker 2: I don't know this, it's just my belief. I don't 1233 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:09,720 Speaker 2: I don't think there's any chance they offered him thirty million, 1234 00:59:09,800 --> 00:59:13,360 Speaker 2: So like, is there a possibility he's getting let's say, 1235 00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:15,600 Speaker 2: I'm gonna make up something, right, twenty million, which would 1236 00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:17,560 Speaker 2: be more than they've ever paid in a single purse 1237 00:59:17,640 --> 00:59:21,720 Speaker 2: to anyone. Ever. Is it possible that he got a 1238 00:59:21,720 --> 00:59:24,160 Speaker 2: twenty million dollar offer and he's now, you know, potentially 1239 00:59:24,200 --> 00:59:25,760 Speaker 2: going to balk But he could say, well, they didn't 1240 00:59:25,760 --> 00:59:28,920 Speaker 2: meet my financial demands right by giving me thirty million. 1241 00:59:29,880 --> 00:59:32,479 Speaker 2: It could be that as well too. So the whole 1242 00:59:32,480 --> 00:59:34,400 Speaker 2: thing is a fucking mess. I'll just say this BC. 1243 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:37,280 Speaker 2: I don't think John is one of these kinds of 1244 00:59:37,280 --> 00:59:40,400 Speaker 2: guys who's like afraid of Tom aspinall, like ooh, he's 1245 00:59:40,400 --> 00:59:42,960 Speaker 2: afraid and I don't get that sense. Yeah, but for 1246 00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:47,040 Speaker 2: as unaware of the outside world, and like how John 1247 00:59:47,120 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 2: is supposed to fit into that and how like seemingly 1248 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,560 Speaker 2: he's poorly he's understood that the opposite is also true, 1249 00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:55,240 Speaker 2: he's also kind of understood his own strengths, I think 1250 00:59:55,360 --> 00:59:58,280 Speaker 2: very well as a fighter inside the octagon, like that 1251 00:59:58,320 --> 01:00:00,360 Speaker 2: part as an athlete. I think he really under stance 1252 01:00:00,400 --> 01:00:03,440 Speaker 2: his strengths, and I think he just doesn't like his 1253 01:00:03,560 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 2: chances against aspinall. And it's how he's having a hard 1254 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:09,360 Speaker 2: time figuring out how he wants to solve this problem. 1255 01:00:09,440 --> 01:00:10,720 Speaker 2: Does he just want to call it off? Does he 1256 01:00:10,720 --> 01:00:12,920 Speaker 2: want to take the money and risk it? Because if 1257 01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:15,320 Speaker 2: he was, like you know, if this was I don't 1258 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 2: know anybody else in that division, I think we'd have 1259 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:22,160 Speaker 2: already had the fight by now. He doesn't like his 1260 01:00:22,320 --> 01:00:24,520 Speaker 2: chances and he doesn't know what to do about it, 1261 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 2: and so the rest of us have to go around 1262 01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:27,720 Speaker 2: with our thumb and our ass. 1263 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:30,520 Speaker 1: I just really wish if there was a chance, a 1264 01:00:30,520 --> 01:00:32,880 Speaker 1: good chance, he wasn't going to do this, then just 1265 01:00:32,880 --> 01:00:34,959 Speaker 1: put the belt down. Last year at MSG, we would 1266 01:00:34,960 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 1: have made fun of you for a year, and then 1267 01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 1: we would have gone back to talking about how he's 1268 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 1: the greatest of all time, and we would have moved on. 1269 01:00:40,480 --> 01:00:43,840 Speaker 1: But now, when you drag it out this long, you 1270 01:00:43,880 --> 01:00:46,400 Speaker 1: know it's time to get it done. Because everybody looks 1271 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:50,720 Speaker 1: bad in. Aspinall suffering because of it, as is the divisions, 1272 01:00:50,960 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 1: as am i Luke A final bit. This was twenty 1273 01:00:53,480 --> 01:00:56,040 Speaker 1: days ago. Here is what Jones looks like. So it's 1274 01:00:56,040 --> 01:00:58,280 Speaker 1: not like he hasn't been training. He had to know 1275 01:00:58,360 --> 01:01:01,880 Speaker 1: Aspinaal was next the second the stepe fight ended. Look, 1276 01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:03,560 Speaker 1: he looks pretty good there twenty days ago. 1277 01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,560 Speaker 2: Right, let's go by the way, very funny that he wrote, 1278 01:01:06,640 --> 01:01:11,400 Speaker 2: ass pin anal. That's that's that's I gotta tell you. 1279 01:01:11,480 --> 01:01:14,200 Speaker 2: I was laughing for days after I saw this. I 1280 01:01:14,200 --> 01:01:16,320 Speaker 2: thought that was just the funniest joke I've ever seen. 1281 01:01:16,600 --> 01:01:18,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, well it's you know, it's creative luke. All right, Hey, 1282 01:01:19,040 --> 01:01:22,920 Speaker 1: let's go into our third topic. Here another update on 1283 01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:26,520 Speaker 1: a fight that he isn't happening. It said it wasn't happening, 1284 01:01:27,480 --> 01:01:29,880 Speaker 1: but now it might happen or is it. I don't know, 1285 01:01:29,960 --> 01:01:32,840 Speaker 1: let's get into it. Middleweight champion Driccis Dupless has now 1286 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:37,240 Speaker 1: publicly denied the rumors going around, first reported by Kevin Iola, 1287 01:01:37,280 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 1: that he was injured and unavailable for UFC three seventeen 1288 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 1: against tom zat Chimayev. Further rumors would be that he 1289 01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:46,160 Speaker 1: broke his shin and would be out for all of 1290 01:01:46,160 --> 01:01:51,160 Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. Not so fast, my friend, says Drickis 1291 01:01:51,240 --> 01:01:54,960 Speaker 1: dupless See, in fact, he came back so aggressively. Hey, 1292 01:01:54,960 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 1: it kind of got us thinking about shots fired, brought 1293 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:07,400 Speaker 1: to you by by Cuervo, and brought to you, of 1294 01:02:07,400 --> 01:02:09,680 Speaker 1: course by Cuervo. And now's a good time to enjoy 1295 01:02:09,720 --> 01:02:13,440 Speaker 1: that tequila that invented tequila. But here is Drikis Duplessi 1296 01:02:13,680 --> 01:02:17,480 Speaker 1: on Instagram with his response. Okay, so everybody had their 1297 01:02:17,520 --> 01:02:21,040 Speaker 1: opinions and rumors and stories about his shinbreak and injuries. 1298 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,920 Speaker 1: I found it all very entertaining. Unfortunately, none of it 1299 01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:27,280 Speaker 1: is true. Myself in the UFC already discussed a fight 1300 01:02:27,360 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 1: date and opponent. The June fight was never signed. I 1301 01:02:31,040 --> 01:02:33,640 Speaker 1: did not pull out of any fight. I am the champion. 1302 01:02:33,960 --> 01:02:35,920 Speaker 1: I know when I fight you as a contender, just 1303 01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,640 Speaker 1: show up when we tell you to fight. Announcement coming soon, 1304 01:02:40,560 --> 01:02:44,560 Speaker 1: stay tuned. So, Luke, there's some shots fired about the 1305 01:02:44,720 --> 01:02:47,160 Speaker 1: rumor mill and who we should take our news from 1306 01:02:47,160 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 1: and believe. But this is kind of a messy situation. 1307 01:02:50,760 --> 01:02:53,560 Speaker 1: We've already been booking the territory and getting Ilia and 1308 01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 1: Islam potentially together. In fact, both have gone public and 1309 01:02:56,520 --> 01:03:00,720 Speaker 1: said they've started a training camp. So let me ask 1310 01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:04,919 Speaker 1: you this, what's behind this breakdown of communication and who 1311 01:03:04,960 --> 01:03:08,280 Speaker 1: appears to be telling the truth as it pertains to 1312 01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 1: International Fight Week and the main event that we still 1313 01:03:10,880 --> 01:03:15,280 Speaker 1: need for June twenty eighth. 1314 01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:19,440 Speaker 2: I don't know what the fuck this story is. I 1315 01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:25,400 Speaker 2: don't understand it at all. I don't did Kevin I 1316 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 2: only get a leak from UFC? Is that why he 1317 01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:31,120 Speaker 2: wrote that? Or did he get a leak from a manager? 1318 01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:34,880 Speaker 2: Is that why he got it? I don't know. If 1319 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:38,960 Speaker 2: they're not going to use Dricis at three seventeen, okay, 1320 01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:41,360 Speaker 2: that's fine, especially if you get if I mean, listen, 1321 01:03:41,400 --> 01:03:44,480 Speaker 2: we said it before. If you get Rickisen, DDP, sorry, 1322 01:03:44,640 --> 01:03:49,439 Speaker 2: Drickis and hamzat at three seventeen Main or Co Maine, 1323 01:03:49,440 --> 01:03:51,240 Speaker 2: it'd be great. But it sounds like that's not going 1324 01:03:51,320 --> 01:03:53,960 Speaker 2: to happen in June for DDP because he just doesn't 1325 01:03:53,960 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 2: want it to happen at a bare minimum, or you know, 1326 01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:59,000 Speaker 2: here's what I think is actually happening. I bet I 1327 01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:01,440 Speaker 2: always report is it least mostly right that there was 1328 01:04:01,440 --> 01:04:02,880 Speaker 2: some kind of an injury and that's why he didn't 1329 01:04:02,880 --> 01:04:04,320 Speaker 2: want to take that fight in June, and now he's 1330 01:04:04,360 --> 01:04:06,680 Speaker 2: kind of playing it off like, oh, I don't want 1331 01:04:06,680 --> 01:04:08,280 Speaker 2: to be co main event. I'll fight when I want 1332 01:04:08,320 --> 01:04:10,120 Speaker 2: to fight, you know, that kind of a thing, where 1333 01:04:10,120 --> 01:04:12,680 Speaker 2: in reality, it's like that wasn't really the reason at all. 1334 01:04:12,760 --> 01:04:15,080 Speaker 2: It's it's because he got banged up and maybe he 1335 01:04:15,120 --> 01:04:18,439 Speaker 2: wants to keep that the nature of that injury kind 1336 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:21,000 Speaker 2: of concealed because it could be a long standing problem. 1337 01:04:21,560 --> 01:04:23,400 Speaker 2: I mean, well, remember for you that. 1338 01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:26,240 Speaker 1: He waited two to three days and waded through the 1339 01:04:26,360 --> 01:04:31,400 Speaker 1: online talk between Tremaiah and Kyle Bihilo that God, I 1340 01:04:31,400 --> 01:04:33,800 Speaker 1: can't see that guy's name right that that they're going 1341 01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:35,919 Speaker 1: to have an interim title. Like he waited a long 1342 01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:37,959 Speaker 1: time to come out and be like, hey, report's wrong, 1343 01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:41,120 Speaker 1: I've never turned it down. I'm healthy announcement coming. Yeah. 1344 01:04:41,360 --> 01:04:43,320 Speaker 2: I mean, you got to remember, I'm not even saying 1345 01:04:43,320 --> 01:04:45,440 Speaker 2: this pejoratively. It's just a fact. It is a fact. 1346 01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:47,760 Speaker 2: Fighters lied to the media almost every time they talk, 1347 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:50,800 Speaker 2: like and partly out of necessity, like it's a It's 1348 01:04:50,840 --> 01:04:53,480 Speaker 2: just you have to understand that, like the vast majority 1349 01:04:53,480 --> 01:04:55,080 Speaker 2: of what you see or at least a good chunk 1350 01:04:55,080 --> 01:04:57,960 Speaker 2: of it is just straight up not the truth. So 1351 01:04:59,080 --> 01:05:01,040 Speaker 2: I tend to think that's what's happening here, is that 1352 01:05:01,080 --> 01:05:04,280 Speaker 2: the report is probably accurate or at least mostly accurate, certainly 1353 01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:07,000 Speaker 2: gets at something, and then this is all pr on 1354 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,280 Speaker 2: the other end, and that's why you saw everything get 1355 01:05:09,360 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 2: kicked in the high gear with Islam and then first 1356 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:14,920 Speaker 2: with Tuporia because it's international fight week and they need 1357 01:05:15,000 --> 01:05:16,800 Speaker 2: somebody to save the day. Now, that doesn't mean those 1358 01:05:16,840 --> 01:05:19,240 Speaker 2: two are going to fight again. We know Islam after 1359 01:05:19,240 --> 01:05:21,400 Speaker 2: three fifteen. I have a sit set on one seventy. 1360 01:05:21,480 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 2: But either way, we're going to get Tuporia there and 1361 01:05:23,840 --> 01:05:26,120 Speaker 2: then we'll see what happens. So that that's to me. 1362 01:05:26,200 --> 01:05:29,320 Speaker 2: The most plausible thing is that Dricus didn't want this 1363 01:05:29,400 --> 01:05:31,120 Speaker 2: news out there, at least in the way that it 1364 01:05:31,160 --> 01:05:33,600 Speaker 2: came out there, and then decided that, you know, he 1365 01:05:33,720 --> 01:05:35,360 Speaker 2: was gonna play some kind of cover, which you know 1366 01:05:35,440 --> 01:05:37,080 Speaker 2: is a very common thing that happens. 1367 01:05:37,560 --> 01:05:40,920 Speaker 1: Interesting well, a fan reacted to DDP and said, you 1368 01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:43,160 Speaker 1: can still fight on three seventeen, but you'll be in 1369 01:05:43,200 --> 01:05:49,600 Speaker 1: the comane. Here was Dricus's response. Potentially, there we go 1370 01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:54,440 Speaker 1: h Colemane with double laughing emoji signs. And if you're 1371 01:05:54,440 --> 01:05:57,200 Speaker 1: waiting on Dana to announce this, because he's been teasing 1372 01:05:57,240 --> 01:06:00,120 Speaker 1: for weeks that he's close. He posted a picture of 1373 01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:04,000 Speaker 1: his new bull, and this fan was like, no bowl, baby, 1374 01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:07,480 Speaker 1: who cares about your cow? Announced the fight? Dana's response, 1375 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,480 Speaker 1: laugh my ass off, I'm never announcing it. How handsome 1376 01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:14,680 Speaker 1: is that bull? Say it? Luke? Your thoughts on that 1377 01:06:14,720 --> 01:06:17,439 Speaker 1: bull shit that they're talking right now? 1378 01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:20,280 Speaker 2: Why does he have a bull? 1379 01:06:20,920 --> 01:06:23,560 Speaker 1: I don't know. He's you know, rich, people need projects, Luke, 1380 01:06:23,600 --> 01:06:25,880 Speaker 1: they need toys, they need Uh. 1381 01:06:25,560 --> 01:06:29,120 Speaker 2: Dude, how is it? And I don't I don't get it. 1382 01:06:29,160 --> 01:06:31,640 Speaker 2: If I had, what do you think Dana's worth four 1383 01:06:31,680 --> 01:06:33,240 Speaker 2: hundred million at this point right something? 1384 01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:36,520 Speaker 1: I believe in the biout in twenty sixteen, he made 1385 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:40,080 Speaker 1: a huge like one hundred plus million dollars some and 1386 01:06:40,120 --> 01:06:42,440 Speaker 1: then they said he was gonna get paid twenty seven 1387 01:06:42,480 --> 01:06:44,360 Speaker 1: million a year to stay on and run the UFC. 1388 01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:50,360 Speaker 2: I'd just be gone. I'd just be gone. I'd just 1389 01:06:50,440 --> 01:06:53,560 Speaker 2: be gone. I don't get it at all. I don't know. 1390 01:06:53,600 --> 01:06:55,840 Speaker 2: I mean, Dana seems like he's got other priorities to me. 1391 01:06:55,960 --> 01:06:57,440 Speaker 2: I'm not even trying to like, you know, am I 1392 01:06:57,480 --> 01:06:59,160 Speaker 2: wrong for saying that? Like, is that unfair? 1393 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:00,640 Speaker 1: He just seems like he's got a lot of other 1394 01:07:00,640 --> 01:07:02,520 Speaker 1: priorities right now. We can barely get him to show 1395 01:07:02,600 --> 01:07:05,320 Speaker 1: up and talk. Here's a Taporia tweet and this was 1396 01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: followed up, by the way, by by Islam doing the same. So, Luke, 1397 01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:12,240 Speaker 1: there is a lot of push. I saw Erojwani was 1398 01:07:12,280 --> 01:07:15,120 Speaker 1: going hard in the paint saying this means Toporia will 1399 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:16,960 Speaker 1: be there. And by the way, that that uh, that 1400 01:07:17,040 --> 01:07:20,040 Speaker 1: response of course from drikastuoples was brought to you by Cuervo. 1401 01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:24,240 Speaker 1: Now's a good time to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. 1402 01:07:24,600 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 1: But Luke, as it pertains to this actual fight right here, 1403 01:07:29,160 --> 01:07:32,360 Speaker 1: Ariel's kind of leaning toward the idea that, like, whether 1404 01:07:32,720 --> 01:07:35,520 Speaker 1: he's fighting Mahachev or he's fighting for the vacant title, 1405 01:07:35,560 --> 01:07:40,200 Speaker 1: we will see Taporia there. What's gonna happen because it's 1406 01:07:40,240 --> 01:07:42,760 Speaker 1: only about, you know, fifty nine days away, so what 1407 01:07:42,760 --> 01:07:43,800 Speaker 1: the hell's gonna happen here? 1408 01:07:44,280 --> 01:07:48,800 Speaker 2: Taporia versus Makachev is probably the number one choice, and 1409 01:07:48,880 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 2: if that doesn't happen, Tapouria versus Charles for the full 1410 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,720 Speaker 2: weight class title, so you can maybe kind of playing 1411 01:07:56,720 --> 01:08:00,240 Speaker 2: a bit of a you know, break break the last 1412 01:08:00,360 --> 01:08:02,720 Speaker 2: case of emergency kind of scenario. That's what you're gonna get. 1413 01:08:02,760 --> 01:08:05,400 Speaker 2: I think it's very likely to get that well. 1414 01:08:05,440 --> 01:08:07,840 Speaker 1: I was on the three dirt Bag Show on Submission 1415 01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:13,080 Speaker 1: Radio and one disbarred lawyer Jed Mishu who really doesn't 1416 01:08:13,120 --> 01:08:16,840 Speaker 1: want Islam versus Ilia and I think he's mad for it, Luke, 1417 01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:20,000 Speaker 1: but he says the way to fix this is to 1418 01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 1: uh allow bellaal if he beats JDM coming up, to 1419 01:08:26,640 --> 01:08:30,280 Speaker 1: move up in wait and then be against Hamza for 1420 01:08:30,439 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 1: the interim title in the International Fight Week main event, 1421 01:08:35,280 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 1: and then you would then have to pour you a 1422 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:42,840 Speaker 1: fight either Charles or Sarukian for the vacant feather belt. 1423 01:08:42,920 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 1: Do you like that idea at all lightweight belt? 1424 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? No, that idea is terrible. 1425 01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:51,759 Speaker 1: Okay, there you go, thank you very much. I agree. 1426 01:08:51,840 --> 01:08:53,360 Speaker 1: Can we just make the fight that you can make 1427 01:08:53,439 --> 01:08:53,840 Speaker 1: right now? 1428 01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:57,200 Speaker 2: I mean, so you expect they need a big fight, 1429 01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:58,000 Speaker 2: they need a big. 1430 01:08:58,320 --> 01:09:00,559 Speaker 1: So do you expect ddp at three seventeen? 1431 01:09:00,880 --> 01:09:08,439 Speaker 2: I don't, Okam, homs up maybe toms up maybe, but Ddpino. 1432 01:09:09,320 --> 01:09:11,519 Speaker 1: All right, I hope that we get both of those 1433 01:09:11,520 --> 01:09:16,519 Speaker 1: two big fights. Okay, John in November against uh against 1434 01:09:16,520 --> 01:09:20,240 Speaker 1: Tom and then Iliah Islam at ifw. I'll stop complaining 1435 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,080 Speaker 1: for the rest of the year about anything. 1436 01:09:23,479 --> 01:09:26,240 Speaker 2: Give us two big fights, you know, I mean, you 1437 01:09:26,280 --> 01:09:28,760 Speaker 2: really should have a big fight every quarter. But I'll 1438 01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:29,880 Speaker 2: take two big ones, you know. 1439 01:09:30,160 --> 01:09:33,120 Speaker 1: Please give me, give me two. Utah uh luke. Let's 1440 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:35,400 Speaker 1: speaking the numbers, and I'm not talking about two anymore. 1441 01:09:35,400 --> 01:09:37,840 Speaker 1: I'm talking about six. Right.

When it 1558 01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:27,639 Speaker 1: comes to the to the top end, which is crazy 1559 01:15:27,680 --> 01:15:32,360 Speaker 1: here because uh Poojia's got twenty six pro m fights himself. 1560 01:15:32,439 --> 01:15:35,800 Speaker 1: But this is about strength. It's probably gonna be about 1561 01:15:35,840 --> 01:15:39,040 Speaker 1: gassing out.

You wouldn't want everybody 1568 01:15:58,680 --> 01:16:01,719 Speaker 2: doing what KSW wants, but you want a KSW doing 1569 01:16:01,840 --> 01:16:05,960 Speaker 2: well what KSW does. Now, this fight is brilliant to me. 1570 01:16:06,080 --> 01:16:11,120 Speaker 2: Marius Prujanowski, dude, Mars Putchinowski has had a really unusual career. See, 1571 01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:13,719 Speaker 2: you see a lot of these strong men, and they're huge. 1572 01:16:13,760 --> 01:16:16,760 Speaker 2: Typically they're like six seven six' eight a lot of 1573 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:19,080 Speaker 2: times four hundred pounds and pooj is. Big i'm not 1574 01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:21,240 Speaker 2: sure what he walks around these, days but he was 1575 01:16:21,240 --> 01:16:23,680 Speaker 2: always a little bit different because he actually looked physically, 1576 01:16:23,760 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 2: yoked whereas if you look at someone like a Even 1577 01:16:26,520 --> 01:16:28,360 Speaker 2: Eddie hall To Eddie hall's got abs, now but you, 1578 01:16:28,400 --> 01:16:30,439 Speaker 2: know if you look at like A Brian shaw or 1579 01:16:30,479 --> 01:16:32,840 Speaker 2: Even Tom staaltman like the last you, know sort of 1580 01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:36,320 Speaker 2: like a statman's like the Reigning. Scottish uh, what he's 1581 01:16:36,320 --> 01:16:38,320 Speaker 2: also A world Strongest. Man he doesn't have. Abs he's 1582 01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:40,080 Speaker 2: got like a big, belly you, know because it's tough 1583 01:16:40,120 --> 01:16:42,440 Speaker 2: to put on that many calories to be that size 1584 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:44,920 Speaker 2: and then still have. Abs pujinowski was, like you, know 1585 01:16:44,960 --> 01:16:47,559 Speaker 2: back in two thousand and, two was doing this kind of. 1586 01:16:47,680 --> 01:16:50,280 Speaker 2: Jacked he's very very unusual in that. Regard five time 1587 01:16:50,360 --> 01:16:53,120 Speaker 2: winner Of World Strongest. MAN i think his last one 1588 01:16:53,160 --> 01:16:55,080 Speaker 2: was two thousand and seven or, eight something like. That 1589 01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:57,040 Speaker 2: so he's actually a little bit. Older he's almost fifty years, 1590 01:16:57,040 --> 01:16:59,240 Speaker 2: old and HIS mma career has kind of petered. Out 1591 01:16:59,280 --> 01:17:02,240 Speaker 2: but he did much better AT mma THAN i ever 1592 01:17:02,280 --> 01:17:04,519 Speaker 2: thought he. Would he's a purple belt in jiu. Jitsu like, 1593 01:17:04,600 --> 01:17:08,240 Speaker 2: dude he's a real athlete who tried to do Things 1594 01:17:08,320 --> 01:17:10,360 Speaker 2: i'm not going to, say like exactly by the book 1595 01:17:10,360 --> 01:17:13,160 Speaker 2: in terms of combat, sports but much more by the 1596 01:17:13,160 --> 01:17:16,360 Speaker 2: book than you would ever. Imagine relative Like Eddie, hall 1597 01:17:16,400 --> 01:17:20,280 Speaker 2: who was fighting you, know The Lollipop guild in his last. 1598 01:17:20,280 --> 01:17:22,120 Speaker 2: Fight you know What i'm, saying he's just fighting you, 1599 01:17:22,160 --> 01:17:25,439 Speaker 2: know five foot two, donks you know WHAT i, mean 1600 01:17:25,479 --> 01:17:29,519 Speaker 2: that's who he's. Fighting Eddie, hall only a one time, 1601 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:30,880 Speaker 2: winner although he had to go up against the guy 1602 01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:33,960 Speaker 2: who's a bit of a generational talent in the Half 1603 01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:36,000 Speaker 2: Thorpe bjornson And Brian. Shaw he was in a very 1604 01:17:36,040 --> 01:17:38,519 Speaker 2: tough era in order to in order to get. Ahead 1605 01:17:38,520 --> 01:17:41,000 Speaker 2: but he eventually did win four times at the world deadlift, 1606 01:17:41,040 --> 01:17:43,519 Speaker 2: record although that was broken and even though there's a 1607 01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:47,000 Speaker 2: little bit of skepticism about that as. Well but either, 1608 01:17:47,040 --> 01:17:50,479 Speaker 2: way we're talking about two very good strong. Men Eddie 1609 01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:53,679 Speaker 2: hall younger and much less accomplished in combat. Sports Marius 1610 01:17:53,680 --> 01:17:57,639 Speaker 2: pujanowski much better in combat, sports but now much older 1611 01:17:57,640 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 2: and a little bit of tread on those. Tires so, 1612 01:17:59,800 --> 01:18:04,040 Speaker 2: this this is just a super fucking, fun amazing. Matchup 1613 01:18:04,160 --> 01:18:07,679 Speaker 2: i'm so GLAD ksw does what they.
