Actually we got in at a pretty good time. 30 00:01:57,640 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 7: There wasn't like a million podcasts. Now there's like a 31 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 7: this is so many. But we got it a good time. 32 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,040 Speaker 7: Glad we did it, and yeah, here we are. 33 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,280 Speaker 5: But there's only one Kenny Florian.

A lot to 41 00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 5: get to today, as always, big weekend for Manchester, England's 42 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 5: The Roan Murphy. We will recap the piss out of 43 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,160 Speaker 5: that with Ray Longo. We will also talk to the 44 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 5: CFFC General manager John Morgan. We'll get a little nostalgic 45 00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 5: with John Morgan, who joined us on the very first 46 00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 5: episode of this program ten years ago. 47 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 6: Wednesday. 48 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:50,440 Speaker 5: Also want to direct you to UFC Fight Pass if 49 00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 5: you happen to be a subscriber. We did the Anak 50 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,639 Speaker 5: and Florian rewind Kenny and we watched back not only 51 00:02:56,680 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 5: Diego Lopez's UFC debut against movsar Ivloyev, but we watched 52 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 5: back Alexander Volkanovski's UFC debut against usk Casuya. 53 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:06,680 Speaker 6: In twenty sixteen. 54 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 5: And I just wanted to get an open and comment 55 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:13,320 Speaker 5: from you on that because I think we both and 56 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 5: I know you got this Steel Trap memory, but I 57 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 5: think we both sort of marveled at just how good 58 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 5: he was all the way back then, even though here 59 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 5: we are nine years later and he's a much more 60 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,079 Speaker 5: refined problem. 61 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think there was something about him just coming 62 00:03:26,240 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 7: on the scene and having a debut guy where you're 63 00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 7: kind of not paying attention to those guys who were 64 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,640 Speaker 7: early on in their career, and I think that was 65 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 7: probably the case for me. But yeah, this was a 66 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 7: guy that was extremely well rounded, came in as more 67 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 7: of a grappler, and people kind of tend to forget that. 68 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:45,280 Speaker 7: But just an extremely powerful guy with a lot of 69 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 7: skills already and has only gotten better really over time. 70 00:03:50,040 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 7: So it was cool to see that and also a 71 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 7: reminder of how these guys match up and what potential 72 00:03:58,480 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 7: strategies they may employ. 73 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:03,800 Speaker 5: We have looked at several fights for Alexander Volkovsky and 74 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,120 Speaker 5: Diego Lopez on UFC Fight Pass and this is not 75 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 5: a cheap plug actually, by the way, but it is 76 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,200 Speaker 5: interesting to look back upon that footage. My biggest takeaway, 77 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 5: I guess from Volkanovsky is just how much he switches 78 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 5: stances now compared to them just then. Much more sophisticated 79 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 5: striker now, I think. We also look back at his 80 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,000 Speaker 5: fight against Brian Ortega catch that in con floor and 81 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 5: rewinded UFC Fight Pass. We also look back at a 82 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 5: Diego Lopez Lux Fighting Championship win. So check out the 83 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 5: latest iteration of the rewind over there on UFC Fight Pass. 84 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 5: Ray Longo coming up in about fifteen minutes. First though, 85 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,599 Speaker 5: headlines is brought to you by Quervo. Now's a good 86 00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 5: time to enjoy the tequila that invented tequila. 87 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:44,560 Speaker 3: All right. 88 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 5: Featherweight main event pretty loud at the Apex. Some Booze 89 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 5: raining down upon the Roan Murphy after the win over 90 00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 5: Josh Emmitt, to which he says, easy work, easy work, 91 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,720 Speaker 5: sixteen and O what and if you're sixteen and oer 92 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 5: in mixed martial arts? What else can be said? Forty 93 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 5: nine forty six and then forty eight forty seven times too. 94 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 5: Can't flow your thoughts on what I thought was just 95 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 5: a clean effort out of Laron Murphy and getting past 96 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 5: the uber dangerous Josh Emmont. 97 00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 7: It was this was a guy that really did his homework, 98 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 7: came in very disciplined. I talked about that heading into 99 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 7: this fight that he was going to have to mind 100 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 7: his p's and q's and be on on point with 101 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:27,960 Speaker 7: his defense. It was certainly that largely was able to 102 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 7: avoid a lot of those big, clean shots from Josh Emmett. 103 00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 7: And yeah, I thought it was a really good performance. 104 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,280 Speaker 7: And you know, he was kind of keeping this undefeated 105 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 7: streak alive quietly, and while people may not have loved 106 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 7: his performance at times, I think that he's not doing 107 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,000 Speaker 7: it so quietly. Now, this is a contender that you 108 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 7: need to take very very seriously. If you're in one 109 00:05:51,880 --> 00:05:53,559 Speaker 7: hundred and forty five pounds vision in the UFC. 110 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 5: Inactivity has been a big part of the issue for 111 00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:59,920 Speaker 5: Laron Murphy in terms of fan resonation, if you will. 112 00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 5: But I liked hearing him say, you know, give me 113 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 5: top five, top three, right, he's just looking for a 114 00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 5: top five guy. 115 00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 6: Try to stay active now. He mentioned July. We sit 116 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 6: here April seventh, so that's particularly exciting. You know, it's 117 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 6: a layered game, and as he said with Michael Bisbeck 118 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 6: after the fact, there are only so many ways in 119 00:06:18,360 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 6: which you fight Josh EMMTT and I do want to 120 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:22,599 Speaker 6: get to Josh and all of this, right, but you 121 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 6: have to mitigate and manage risk, right. So I think 122 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:29,599 Speaker 6: the expectation from some fans is a little bit too 123 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 6: lofty in terms of maybe you're shaking your head, right. 124 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 6: I mean, I just feel like you have to avoid 125 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,640 Speaker 6: the danger and the big shot largely. He did well. 126 00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 7: It's one of the things I was thinking about in 127 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:43,680 Speaker 7: regards to one of the guys we're gonna talk about later, 128 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 7: Michael Chandler. And you can't name a champion fighter who's 129 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 7: been consistent throughout his career and is consistently getting wins 130 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 7: who is only going to have exciting performances, you're just 131 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:56,440 Speaker 7: not gonna have it. 132 00:06:57,120 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 6: You have to make a decision. 133 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 7: As a fighter, and especially as a guy who has 134 00:07:00,480 --> 00:07:03,120 Speaker 7: the belt eventually or trying to get the belt, as 135 00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:05,520 Speaker 7: to whether you want to be exciting or whether you 136 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 7: want to be a winner. 137 00:07:06,920 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 6: And you can't really have both and. 138 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 7: Be exciting for every single fight because you're going to 139 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 7: have various levels of danger. Josh Emmont is a guy 140 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 7: that if he catches it clean, not only is he 141 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,600 Speaker 7: gonna beat you, but he's gonna take your head off 142 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:23,640 Speaker 7: and you may not be the same after that fight. 143 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 6: He has that kind of power. 144 00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 7: Look at his dam back and look at some of 145 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 7: his previous knockouts. 146 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 6: So you have to be smart in this game. Mike Tyson, who's. 147 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,920 Speaker 7: Known as one of the biggest brutes, one of the 148 00:07:34,960 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 7: most powerful guys in heavyweight boxing history, said, you know, 149 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 7: strong guys, guys with power you get all the time. 150 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 6: You need someone with smarts in this game. And that 151 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 6: is very, very true. Bro. 152 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 5: Track me at my daughter's school in South Florida a 153 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 5: few days ago, and who starts walking over the bleachers, 154 00:07:54,320 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 5: Fucking Mike Tyson, No get out of here of all people, right, unmistake. Right, 155 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 5: he has a tattoo on his face if you haven't heard, right, No, 156 00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 5: but I mean of all legends, right, And I'm there 157 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 5: with my son, and sort of a flash in my 158 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 5: head is like, all right, dude, this is the lone 159 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,360 Speaker 5: opportunity of your life for your son to get a 160 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 5: picture with Mike Tyson. 161 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:17,520 Speaker 4: Right. 162 00:08:17,520 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 6: But I'm just not even all about that. I didn't 163 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:20,360 Speaker 6: even say hello. 164 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,440 Speaker 5: I let him do his thing, but he was more 165 00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 5: than willing to mingle, which was cool to see him 166 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 5: with the crowd. But yes, your points on Laurent Murphy 167 00:08:28,040 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 5: and the danger factor with Josh Ammit are all well taken. 168 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 5: And I always like to talk about this, right because 169 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 5: it is hard to be equal parts elite and excited, 170 00:08:36,600 --> 00:08:39,360 Speaker 5: and there's only a handful of fighters who have accomplished 171 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 5: that feat. John Jones, I think we would both argue 172 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 5: is one of the more exciting mixed martial arts athletes 173 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,160 Speaker 5: of all time. Double digit decision wins in the UFC, Right, 174 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 5: George Saint Pierre double digit decision wins in the UFC. Right, 175 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 5: That means ten or more decision wins in the UFC 176 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 5: for both of those two gentlemen and no Mount Rushmore 177 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 5: really begins without the two of those guys. 178 00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:05,719 Speaker 6: So John Nix got my back with facts. You know, 179 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 6: let's go so. 180 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 5: In terms of Josh Emmett, and we'll circle back to 181 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,520 Speaker 5: some matchmaking on the Roan Murphy time permitting, we do 182 00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 5: have some would you rathers coming up for Ray long ago, 183 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 5: and the masses have asked for Kenny Florian to be 184 00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 5: participatory in that exercise. They like when we make you laugh, 185 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 5: but they want you to have to answer those and 186 00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:28,439 Speaker 5: you know, somebody else said, and Kenny's good because he 187 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,440 Speaker 5: can get in and out right like he doesn't need 188 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:32,800 Speaker 5: a bunch of seconds to either be funny or things 189 00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 5: like that. So we will hear from you when it 190 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,600 Speaker 5: comes to would you rather? And thanks everybody joining us 191 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 5: live on YouTube today, ten year anniversary of the Anak 192 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 5: and Florian podcast. We're trying to go fifteen years with 193 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 5: this thing. At least, you know, we'll see if it happens. 194 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 5: So Josh Emmett, so, oh man, there's a lot to unpack, right, 195 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 5: the inability largely to get over the proverbial hump when 196 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:58,079 Speaker 5: it comes to these big fights, whether it was the 197 00:09:58,160 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 5: UFC Interim Championship, fight against a Rodriguezer this one or 198 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 5: a select big spot here or there. Team Alpha Male 199 00:10:05,320 --> 00:10:07,880 Speaker 5: had an Instagram post and they sort of suggested that 200 00:10:07,960 --> 00:10:12,439 Speaker 5: Josh Emmitt is just getting started now. He's forty years old. 201 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,959 Speaker 5: He certainly has dealt with some injuries and some layoffs 202 00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 5: and some circumstance. Now, he was very competitive against the 203 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,319 Speaker 5: undefeated of l Aran Murphy. I'd imagine if you look 204 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,480 Speaker 5: for and wide, you could find a scorecard out there 205 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:26,720 Speaker 5: for Josh. Maybe not right, but he hasn't been able 206 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,280 Speaker 5: to get over the hump. And I'm trying to get 207 00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,520 Speaker 5: to the why. So in round five, I don't know 208 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:36,480 Speaker 5: that we're trying to grapple or wrestle, So I think 209 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:38,520 Speaker 5: you could maybe fault the IQ a little bit there, 210 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 5: and I would say maybe if you're really leaning into 211 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 5: the power, maybe you just don't wrestle nor grapple nearly 212 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 5: as much as he did in this fight. And even 213 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 5: if that means you end up getting pieced up or 214 00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:49,960 Speaker 5: knocked out soapy. 215 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 7: Yeah, absolutely, I think that you know, his way that 216 00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 7: he was going to win this fight was on the feet, 217 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 7: was landing one of those big shots. And I think 218 00:10:58,160 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 7: that if we're talking about that inspect John. I think 219 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,520 Speaker 7: his footwork suffers a little bit. You know, his ability 220 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 7: to get in with proper fants, to get into the 221 00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 7: proper range is gonna be tough against a guy, against 222 00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 7: a guy like Laro Murphy who moves extremely well, against 223 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 7: someone who's flat footed, who really doesn't know how to 224 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 7: move in and out, like let's say Bryce Mitchell for example, 225 00:11:20,040 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 7: then yeah, okay, that may work. But against those elite 226 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:26,600 Speaker 7: guys with the elite footwork, the iliotoporia is and such. 227 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 7: You know, yeah, you're Rodriguez, it's gonna be tough for 228 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:33,800 Speaker 7: him to catch those kind of guys. You know, your 229 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 7: ability to get power off the floor is your ability 230 00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 7: to get low to the ground. But that's not so 231 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 7: conducive to mobility, and I think that's where josh Emmont 232 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 7: is trying to figure that out. And then Okay, if 233 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:48,000 Speaker 7: you have a great submission game, yeah maybe take him 234 00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 7: down if you're really good at like, you know, chasing 235 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 7: the back and getting these crazy leg locks, and that 236 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,760 Speaker 7: might be the choice for someone like that, but Josh 237 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 7: Emmont isn't that guy either, So yeah, that's where his 238 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 7: struggles are. 239 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 6: Kind of lacking. 240 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,080 Speaker 5: And I'm sure he'd agree with us on the round 241 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,480 Speaker 5: five takedown. You know your left hand and your right 242 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 5: hand are made of steel, so try to land one 243 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 5: of those lunchboxes. Well, we congratulate Laron Murphy. And in 244 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 5: terms of sort of the style points or lack thereof 245 00:12:17,480 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 5: on this win, I would just say, in any other sport, 246 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 5: this would just be clean and celebrated, right as if 247 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 5: you're playing basketball, and yet here you need entertainment points somehow, 248 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 5: which is a tricky proposition. Sixteen to zero, easy work, 249 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 5: as Laron Murphy said, and as we spin it forward, right, 250 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 5: mavsar iov LOOIV is the number four rank contender. He 251 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:40,360 Speaker 5: wants to stay active to that end. Rumors are swirling 252 00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:42,840 Speaker 5: that he's gonna welcome Aaron Pico to the UFC, and 253 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:46,720 Speaker 5: my goodness, I just have buckets of respect for mafstar 254 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,880 Speaker 5: E of Loye. We bring him up in the context 255 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:52,600 Speaker 5: of this featherweight win for Laron Murphy and what I 256 00:12:52,640 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 5: am calling UFC three fourteen Volkanovsky versus Lopez the biggest 257 00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 5: night in the history of the UFC featherweight division this weekend. 258 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 5: So we have the rankings here populated for us privately, 259 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 5: what are you doing with Laron Murphy if in fact 260 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 5: you could turn him around as soon as say, International 261 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:12,280 Speaker 5: Fight Week in June or I guess that wouldn't happen, 262 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 5: but July or August for larone any name there on 263 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:16,319 Speaker 5: the tip of your tongue. 264 00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:21,199 Speaker 7: Well, I think a fight against Brian Ortega would be interesting. 265 00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 7: Ortega hasn't fought in a little while. I don't think 266 00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,920 Speaker 7: he has anything scheduled on the books, does he. 267 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 6: Nope? 268 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that that would be a really interesting fight. 269 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 7: Put him up against Ortega, who's ranked a little higher 270 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 7: than him. You beat Ortega and then kind of you 271 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 7: put yourself now into the conversation anyway, to be maybe 272 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,640 Speaker 7: one fight away from getting a shot after that. 273 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,520 Speaker 5: All right, So this weekend just to sort of tie 274 00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:49,640 Speaker 5: it in here, So Danny Gay faces Sean Woodson in 275 00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 5: the featured pre Lamanni ESPN. Danny gave the plus one 276 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 5: thirty underdog. Right now, he's number fifteen in the world, 277 00:13:55,840 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 5: right so Sean Woodson is favored to get a ranking 278 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:01,960 Speaker 5: on this fight card. And you have, Yeah, you're Rodriguez, 279 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 5: who is number five in the world, taking on the 280 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 5: unranked Patricio Pittbull as decorated a fighter to ever come 281 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 5: into the UFC, at least based on resume. You have 282 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:17,120 Speaker 5: Bryce Mitchell and Jean Lord Silva. I guess Lord Silva's 283 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,840 Speaker 5: unranked at present, Bryce Mitchell holding it down number thirteen, 284 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:21,680 Speaker 5: and then you have the undisputed title on the line, 285 00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 5: can Flow number three, Diego Lopez taking on the division's 286 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:28,000 Speaker 5: number one rank contender Alexander Volkanowski.

Okay, But 290 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:40,120 Speaker 5: that night, notwithstanding humor, me for a second, Ken Flow one, 291 00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:43,720 Speaker 5: Taron Elkins and Juliani rose in the featherweight division on 292 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:46,360 Speaker 5: the prelims one, two, three, four five. This is the 293 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 5: biggest night in UFC featherweight history. Things are going to 294 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 5: look drastically different when we reconvene on April fourteenth. 295 00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, definitely a lot of really intriguing matchups. 296 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 6: You know. 297 00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 7: The one that I'm looking forward to a lot, obviously, 298 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:02,760 Speaker 7: besides the Native is the John Silva and Bryce Mitchell. 299 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 6: Now that one's gonna be fire. 300 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,520 Speaker 5: And dude, yeah, year right, Yeah, looking like a wrestler 301 00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,360 Speaker 5: and training out there with Black Muhammad and coming off 302 00:15:10,360 --> 00:15:15,000 Speaker 5: two straight losses.

A couple of thirty to 308 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 5: twenty six is in there, Philadelphia kid on his best night. 309 00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 5: Man is a real, you know, force to be reckoned with. 310 00:15:36,280 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 7: I'd sold Peach, I'd told Pechi, you gotta watch out 311 00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 7: for this kid. 312 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 6: And I like the fact that, again that he was 313 00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:45,120 Speaker 6: a guy who had some good results. 314 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,520 Speaker 7: Even when he was losing, he had some good moments 315 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 7: and sometimes he would struggle a little bit with that 316 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 7: chin up in the air and uh, you know when 317 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,000 Speaker 7: he was forced to strike a little bit. 318 00:15:55,040 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 6: But he was clearly a very talented grappler. 319 00:15:57,320 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 7: And when I heard that he was working with a 320 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 7: sports psychologist, said this is going to help him, because 321 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:05,360 Speaker 7: it's not because he's you know, he's not losing because 322 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 7: he's not talented or doesn't have the ability. 323 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 6: He clearly has the ability. Maybe it's something going on upstairs. 324 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 7: And to see him kind of put it together now 325 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 7: and get consistency, and to do it against a guy 326 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 7: in Jo Anderson Brito, who is really, really dangerous. I 327 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,880 Speaker 7: thought that was a tremendous win. People have been sleeping 328 00:16:22,920 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 7: on this guy's grappling ability for a little while, and 329 00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 7: I think Brito's grappling ability has been I don't know, 330 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:32,400 Speaker 7: I think exaggerated a little bit. 331 00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 6: I think that that's where he has struggled. 332 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,160 Speaker 7: So I really liked that matchup for Sabatini, and boy 333 00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,760 Speaker 7: did he did he make a count. 334 00:16:40,320 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 5: We did talk a week ago about Dean Thomas speaking 335 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 5: superlatively about Pat Sabatini and skill for skill, just how 336 00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:49,560 Speaker 5: good he compares with the likes of Sean Brady and 337 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 5: Joe Pifer and everybody else that has talent in that 338 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:55,560 Speaker 5: pocket of the Northeast here in the United States. And 339 00:16:55,600 --> 00:16:59,520 Speaker 5: Pat Sabatini man really interesting fighter with which to contempt 340 00:16:59,520 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 5: potentially for someone in the bottom half of that top fifteen. 341 00:17:03,160 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 6: Did you happen to. 342 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 5: See that lip cut, by the way, Kenny, that was 343 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:13,440 Speaker 5: Daniel Frontza runzah. Sorry if I don't have the pronunciation 344 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:19,720 Speaker 5: for you, bro, I mean forget alistair Ovarim against Jarzenio rosenstrike. 345 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 6: Well, actually I did miss it. 346 00:17:22,320 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 7: Initially, I said, well, the guy's hurt, he's gonna come 347 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 7: in the eye is really swollen. 348 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,720 Speaker 6: And then when he saw the close up, the carra 349 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 6: oh there it is. Yeah, that that makes sense. 350 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 7: But d that guy is so damn tough and he 351 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,959 Speaker 7: wanted to continue fighting, and it was it was easy 352 00:17:39,960 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 7: to miss because I was looking at all the action, 353 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 7: all the big shots, and I was looking at his eye. 354 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,679 Speaker 7: But when the camera panned towards that flip, dude, that 355 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,359 Speaker 7: was that was bad all right. 356 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 5: You know Petree likes this Chong Holy he gets by 357 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:56,360 Speaker 5: Cortavious Roamious Tko comes at the three forty eight mark 358 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 5: of round two. 359 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,439 Speaker 6: Ken Floyer thoughts, yeah, you know, listen, this is a 360 00:17:59,440 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 6: good grapple. 361 00:18:00,840 --> 00:18:02,880 Speaker 7: I liked him in that matchup, and maybe not as 362 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:06,560 Speaker 7: strongly as Brian Petrie, but BP was spot on with 363 00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 7: that one. I think that his grappling really stood out 364 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 7: to me, and I think that like for Courtavious being 365 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 7: the smaller guy in there, I think it was tough 366 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 7: for him to get into proper range and all that stuff, 367 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,560 Speaker 7: So I thought it was a great win there for 368 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:21,359 Speaker 7: chun holee. 369 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,120 Speaker 5: Brad Tavaris getting interviewed by Michael Bisping as he ties 370 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,639 Speaker 5: him for the most wins in UFC middleweight history school. 371 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 5: What you make of the fight between Tavaris and Gerald 372 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 5: Mershard nanimous decision twenty nine twenty eight times three for BT. 373 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,000 Speaker 7: Well, you know, I thought that tavar has looked fantastic 374 00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:40,800 Speaker 7: and I think it was a great matchup for him. 375 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:44,320 Speaker 7: He tends to shine best against jiu jitsu guys, guys 376 00:18:44,359 --> 00:18:46,160 Speaker 7: that may be very good on the ground but maybe 377 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,840 Speaker 7: don't have the best takedowns. And Murchard showed some really 378 00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 7: good improvement on the feet with his striking, was shifting stances, 379 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 7: landing some good shots on Tavor's, especially a little bit 380 00:18:56,640 --> 00:19:00,080 Speaker 7: later in the fight, but just couldn't get things done, 381 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,240 Speaker 7: you know, where he was able to get to a 382 00:19:02,280 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 7: really strong position. 383 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:04,480 Speaker 6: He was close to the back. 384 00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 7: I think it was round three maybe, but Tavar's did 385 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 7: a great job of staying patient, keeping that cage behind him, 386 00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:14,960 Speaker 7: not allowing Mershark to get to that back position because 387 00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:18,199 Speaker 7: murshark gets to your back, he's probably going to finish. 388 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,240 Speaker 7: So Tavar's did a good job of staying disciplined there working, 389 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 7: you know, doing his homework clearly, and he just those legs. Man, 390 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 7: he's so tough to take down, especially up against the cage, 391 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:31,480 Speaker 7: and did what he needed to do to get that win. 392 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,879 Speaker 7: But really shined early on in that fight with his 393 00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 7: striking as well, putting together some really sharp combinations. 394 00:19:37,480 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 5: All right, congratulations to Brad Tavars.

So it's UFC three fourteen fight weeks, 475 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,240 Speaker 5: so I'd like to spend a lot of time there. 476 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 5: But off the top, we know you watch every single 477 00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,760 Speaker 5: UFC fight. So what did you make of Laron Murphy 478 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 5: over Josh Emma and anything else from the weekend? 479 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 4: Uh? A great fight for for not the most exciting fight, 480 00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:50,880 Speaker 4: but you know, Murphy's very technical, great footwork. I think 481 00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 4: the footwork one of the fight. But look, unfortunately, like 482 00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: I walked into the gym, I don't think anybody care 483 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 4: about the fight. You know, that's the problem. It wasn't 484 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 4: an exciting fight. And you know, the UFC is I 485 00:24:04,640 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 4: think has been towards entertainment more than like substance in 486 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 4: the past couple of years. So I'm sure he got 487 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 4: tortured over that. But it was a beautiful performance. But 488 00:24:18,080 --> 00:24:21,280 Speaker 4: you know, I mean, I look, first off, hats off 489 00:24:21,320 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 4: to Josh Emmitt. The guy's forty years old and that 490 00:24:23,800 --> 00:24:26,200 Speaker 4: fight was you know, the fight was another close fight, 491 00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:28,080 Speaker 4: but you had to give it to Murphy, I think. 492 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 4: But for being forty years old, I'll give him the fight. 493 00:24:31,800 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 4: I think he should have been able to Like I 494 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,800 Speaker 4: think Toporia really lumped him up good. Rodriguez got him 495 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:39,960 Speaker 4: out of there, you know. So, and that was a 496 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 4: couple of years ago, so I think Murphy kind of 497 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 4: needed to finish that fight. To make a statement that 498 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 4: I think he needs to make. But uh, unfortunately, I 499 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 4: think a great fight, great win. I don't know if 500 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:54,880 Speaker 4: it's you know, what it's going to do for him. 501 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,359 Speaker 7: Yeah, Ray, I would say, like, not every fight is 502 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,680 Speaker 7: going to be a perfect performance or a exciting fight. 503 00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:02,800 Speaker 6: But what do you think the ceiling is on Murphy? 504 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:04,959 Speaker 6: Is he championship material in your opinion? 505 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 4: Uh, look, he's gonna I'll tell you what thing. He's 506 00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 4: definitely gonna be a herd out. Is he championship materials? 507 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:19,920 Speaker 4: Got the qualities that might you know, like I think, Uh, 508 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 4: I think he's got to go for it a little more, 509 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 4: to be honest with you, because he's gonna you know, 510 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 4: I think they're gonna probably bust his balls up until 511 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 4: that point. But yeah, I think he's got the attributes 512 00:25:33,760 --> 00:25:35,520 Speaker 4: of a champion, and I think he's just got to 513 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:39,040 Speaker 4: go for a more. You know, He's definitely skilled, beautiful footwork, 514 00:25:39,160 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 4: nice combinations, does everything right. Takedown defense looks like it's solid, 515 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 4: But I'm not feeling that X factor, you know, to 516 00:25:50,200 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 4: really go. I want to see the guy fight for 517 00:25:51,880 --> 00:25:52,719 Speaker 4: a title, you know. 518 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, and Johnny, I'd like to shift gears over to 519 00:25:56,840 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 7: three fourteen UFC three fourteen this weekend and a great 520 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 7: featherweight fight. Y. Yeah, here Rodriguez, who's not always so consistent, 521 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 7: but when he's on his game, man, it looks like 522 00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,240 Speaker 7: he could beat anyone in the world in that weight class. 523 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 7: He's taken on Patricio Pitbull. I'm not sure how much 524 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:17,399 Speaker 7: you've seen of Patricio, But what do you make of 525 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:17,720 Speaker 7: that fight? 526 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 4: Uh, I'm gonna go with yeah, year in that fight, 527 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 4: I think he's fought the better competition. I think that's 528 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 4: going to be the difference in the fight. Yeah. Patricia's 529 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,040 Speaker 4: good though, Man, he's been around forever. He's got solid 530 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 4: experience too. But I think, YEAHI has been in there 531 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,639 Speaker 4: with just about everybody to give him the right looks 532 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:42,120 Speaker 4: to be able to deal with that. How old is Pitbull? Now? 533 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 4: He's got to be getting up there too, right. 534 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 5: Not, it's right here, Ray, if you just want to 535 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 5: wait out hot second. 536 00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 4: Hurdy again? 537 00:26:50,880 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 6: Huh, why is it not there? I got all the 538 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,880 Speaker 6: I think it's like thirty six. As you were saying, though, 539 00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 6: we're a little bit disorganized here, a little bit discombobulated. 540 00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 6: On Monday, Sean Lord Silva is twenty eight. God my notes, right, 541 00:27:04,359 --> 00:27:06,800 Speaker 6: I think he's in his mid thirty seven, thirty seven, 542 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 6: thanks guys, Thanks Coke Glue. 543 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 4: I think that's a rough time to be entering the UFC, 544 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 4: but he does have the experience. We'll see what happens. 545 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 4: I'm gonna go with Yaya Rodriguez in that fight though. 546 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 5: All right, So one thing that I just wanted to 547 00:27:22,119 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 5: circle back to. It doesn't necessarily have to do with 548 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 5: Laron Murphy in particular. It is a thankless job though, 549 00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 5: professional mixed martial arts fighter, right. I think about Mario 550 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 5: Bautista right now out of the MMA LAB beats Jose Aldo, right, 551 00:27:37,320 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 5: and I believe he's gonna fight Marlon Chiedo Vera. But 552 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 5: I think the fight keeps getting pushed back. Now, this 553 00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 5: guy's won like seven fights in a row, one hundred 554 00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,679 Speaker 5: and thirty five pounds, neutralizes Jose Aldo and then just 555 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 5: gets roundly criticized, Like when's that guy gonna fight for 556 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 5: a world title? 557 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:51,879 Speaker 6: I don't know. 558 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:54,720 Speaker 5: I just feel like the sport is difficult, and I 559 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,720 Speaker 5: bring it up in the context of Laron Murphy and 560 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,199 Speaker 5: maybe it was just Sacramento being heard from, but like, 561 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 5: why are we booing Laron Murphy at that decision. You know, 562 00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 5: good on him for fire and right back. That's like 563 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:08,520 Speaker 5: almost as loud as i've heard the apex to the 564 00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 5: negative after a fighter wins. 565 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 4: I don't know, Yeah, I think it's because you know, 566 00:28:13,119 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 4: Emmett was just stalking him the whole fight. He'd never 567 00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 4: really pushed em at back and got him on his 568 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 4: back heels. But listen at the sport is like you said, 569 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 4: this is a thankless sport. We can't listen pool. We 570 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 4: can't even get into the you can't even get a 571 00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:30,360 Speaker 4: shot into the UFC, and he could be the best 572 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 4: bantamweight prospect out there. So we're in a totally different direction. 573 00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:38,800 Speaker 4: And mikel tell you he thinks he's boring. So if 574 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 4: these guys think something, they're controlling the purse strings, I mean, 575 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,520 Speaker 4: then you got to deal with that shit. Man. You 576 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:48,080 Speaker 4: can't even be an undefeated fighter with a couple of 577 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,960 Speaker 4: local belts. It doesn't even nobody gives a shit, you know. 578 00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 5: So you are right that entertainment factors in seeming now 579 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 5: more than ever. But if Laren Murphy was your fighter, 580 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 5: and I'm not suggestive that he hit just to shut 581 00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 5: out but my goodness, man, you fight the most consequentially 582 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 5: powerful guy in the division, right and you fight a 583 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:13,520 Speaker 5: really clean fight. You mix up your weapons beautifully, and 584 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 5: you know, Ray Longo comes on here and says, yeah, 585 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:17,520 Speaker 5: go to the gym, and nobody gives a shit. 586 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. Now, I know that you 587 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 6: are as fighter first as anyone. 588 00:29:21,600 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 3: Oh no, no. 589 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 5: I open this program in a way that almost sounds 590 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,200 Speaker 5: like defensive of Laron Murphy because it's like, you're damned 591 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 5: if you do, damned if you don't. It's like, yeah, yeah, now, 592 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 5: now you're beating number eight in the world. Not good 593 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 5: and we got a knockout number eight in the world. 594 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 4: Sorry, well, that's kind of what they That's what I 595 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 4: don't know, you know. I mean, listen, if you're asking 596 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 4: me Laron Murphy for a beautiful fight, you know. But 597 00:29:45,720 --> 00:29:48,440 Speaker 4: it's the same thing like when they hold those fighting meetings. 598 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 4: The coaches can't go. Why is that because they want 599 00:29:52,280 --> 00:29:54,320 Speaker 4: to rip these guys up, and like a coach will 600 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:56,760 Speaker 4: go to just fight, you fight, don't worry about anything. 601 00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 4: They want to win, stay within yourself, and he's go, 602 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 4: I try to get you to go crazy, you know, 603 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,200 Speaker 4: if you're seventy five grand, three hundred grand for it 604 00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:08,080 Speaker 4: not whatever, you know what I mean? Like there, that's there, 605 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 4: that's what they want. You know. It has nothing to 606 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 4: do with winning or losing. 607 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,440 Speaker 6: And the way Murphy was going to lose this fight 608 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 6: was by making it exciting. 609 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, they'll they'll yeah, yeah, right, a hundred they'll take 610 00:30:22,320 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 4: Leon and they'll take god, was it Leon Garcia or 611 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 4: against the Korean zombie like a slober knocka That that 612 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,959 Speaker 4: to to some people is that's a fight. That's a 613 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,360 Speaker 4: ballroom brawl. I mean, we all want to see that. 614 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 4: But you know, if you're a coach, you don't want 615 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 4: your fighter engaging in that type of stuff. You want 616 00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:46,000 Speaker 4: them to be technical and you know, sound everywhere, be 617 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:49,040 Speaker 4: you know, like a good fight, I think you know, 618 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,920 Speaker 4: but good luck man. 619 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 6: Yeah. 620 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 5: So did you happen to see the fight involving Terrez 621 00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 5: Finney and Robert Valentine. 622 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 3: Speaking of it? 623 00:31:03,640 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 4: For the parts I could stay with itself, the parts, 624 00:31:06,760 --> 00:31:09,000 Speaker 4: for the parts I could stay awake for you, Finny's 625 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 4: not think of that. 626 00:31:10,160 --> 00:31:12,040 Speaker 5: So I did not see that Saturday night. I had 627 00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 5: to seek that out to see just how insulting it was. 628 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,400 Speaker 4: Well, you know, it's funny. Poomy takes it. Poomy takes 629 00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,239 Speaker 4: me during the fight. Come on, are you kidding? And 630 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 4: I go, dude, that's you. They think that's you. What 631 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:26,239 Speaker 4: one eighty five? What are you talking about? That's what 632 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,479 Speaker 4: they see when they look at you. They see Finny 633 00:31:29,640 --> 00:31:32,440 Speaker 4: taking the guy down, which isn't true. 634 00:31:32,640 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 6: But Kenny, what do you have for us on this fight? Uh? 635 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,760 Speaker 5: I mean Finny won it twenty nine twenty eight times too, 636 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 5: and then I don't know if it was Tony Weeks 637 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:47,160 Speaker 5: who had the thirty twenty seven doing the other way. 638 00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 6: Lots of unpacked here though. Well yeah, Kenny, wait, go, 639 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 6: oh my god, Kenny. 640 00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 4: When you get a Kenny, When you get a boxing 641 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 4: judge in an MMA fight and there's not one punch landed? 642 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,280 Speaker 4: What do you who? Do you think the guys gonna 643 00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 4: vote for? 644 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,520 Speaker 6: Just just player eighting? 645 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:04,400 Speaker 3: No, the grappler. 646 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 7: Just listen, you know, if you're if you're scoring. I 647 00:32:08,840 --> 00:32:11,440 Speaker 7: think there was some ridiculous stat I wish I could remember. 648 00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 7: I wanted to write it down. Of course it did not. 649 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:17,560 Speaker 6: But it was like I mean, was it. Finny threw 650 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 6: like very little strikes each round? 651 00:32:19,520 --> 00:32:21,880 Speaker 7: So maybe that's what Weeks was coming from, was like, Hey, 652 00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 7: the other kids landing a bunch of shots. He was 653 00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 7: elbowing from the bottom position, and Finny was doing a 654 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:28,840 Speaker 7: great job of controlling. 655 00:32:28,920 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 6: But was he winning a fight? I don't know. 656 00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:33,960 Speaker 7: He was certainly winning the grappling match, right, But was 657 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 7: it thirty twenty seven realistically? 658 00:32:35,520 --> 00:32:37,080 Speaker 6: No, No, it shouldn't have gone that way. 659 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:38,560 Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean. 660 00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 7: Certain guys that you pick and you think this is 661 00:32:41,920 --> 00:32:44,320 Speaker 7: gonna be the guy who's gonna be using a heavy 662 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 7: grounded pound with his wrestling game, and just really wasn't 663 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 7: doing that at all. 664 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:50,920 Speaker 6: So I think he'll adjust. 665 00:32:50,960 --> 00:32:53,080 Speaker 7: I think he'll, you know, really have to add in 666 00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 7: a lot of different elements to ground pound if that's 667 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:57,400 Speaker 7: what he's gonna do. If you're gonna take guys down, 668 00:32:57,440 --> 00:32:59,400 Speaker 7: then you gotta be able to beat people up from 669 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:01,680 Speaker 7: there and be some kind of a submission threat. 670 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:04,840 Speaker 6: So yeah, really wasn't that. But I mean that's a 671 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 6: very powerful dude, no question about that. 672 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,959 Speaker 4: And did that thirty twenty seven? Did that get a 673 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 4: shitloaded criticism like a bad a bad judge normally gets. 674 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 4: I don't think so, because I think if Weeks walks 675 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,600 Speaker 4: out of it and does like what Kenny said, he 676 00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,600 Speaker 4: yelbowed him off the bottom. He didn't do this, he 677 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 4: just took him down. He stole he. I bet you 678 00:33:25,320 --> 00:33:27,520 Speaker 4: know higher ups agree with that guy. They don't want 679 00:33:27,520 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 4: to see that. They don't want to see it. It 680 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:32,280 Speaker 4: doesn't matter about winning. They don't want to see it. 681 00:33:32,400 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 5: Pier rend the point, you know, I agree with you, sadly. 682 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 5: I agree Kenny. Your camera looks fantastic. Did you purchase 683 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 5: that from Brian Petrie? That's the word on the street anyway.

Yeah, that 697 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 4: guy was took down, a really talented guy.

He's a grinder, and again Pat's off 703 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,000 Speaker 4: to him. I don't want to let that go because 704 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 4: I thought that. 705 00:34:45,480 --> 00:34:46,640 Speaker 6: Was a oh that's good. 706 00:34:47,000 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 5: Yeah, No, Sabatini, I agree offensively, really fun to watch. 707 00:34:50,920 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 5: And uh, I know you Northeast guys like to stick together. 708 00:34:54,040 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 5: See that's not necessarily part of the Northeast mentality and totality. 709 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 5: It suggests to me that you're not really a pro 710 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,760 Speaker 5: sports fan the way you root for Philadelphia, right, because 711 00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 5: you know, like, I'm happy for you and Widman, right, 712 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 5: but I'm never sad when New Yorkers lose, whether it's Yankees, 713 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:11,080 Speaker 5: Mets or Longo Widemen. 714 00:35:11,560 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 4: Well, I think I think New York Boston rivalries at 715 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:19,800 Speaker 4: the pinnacle of rivalries. Yes, you know, I mean so. 716 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:21,759 Speaker 5: That's part of the reason we wanted you on the 717 00:35:21,800 --> 00:35:23,680 Speaker 5: show to balance out our Boston with. 718 00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,800 Speaker 4: A little New York billy. 719 00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 7: I remember I was in New York and I posted 720 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 7: something on it was Twitter at the time, and I 721 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 7: was like, hey, great to be back in you know, 722 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 7: the Big Apple or something like that, and and texted me. 723 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:41,520 Speaker 6: He's like, hey, dude, what are you doing.

You wouldn't think you would at 727 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,399 Speaker 4: least honor his father from Seafid a little bit. 728 00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:56,719 Speaker 5: But now, yeah, when you said on these airwaves that 729 00:35:56,800 --> 00:35:59,160 Speaker 5: because my dad's from Long Island Sea for New York, 730 00:35:59,160 --> 00:36:01,160 Speaker 5: that I got New York blood, it kind of threw 731 00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:03,200 Speaker 5: me sideways. And then people are like, you look like 732 00:36:03,239 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 5: you're from New York. I'm like, all right, you know 733 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,000 Speaker 5: this is my Red Sox teacher. By the way, swept 734 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:10,360 Speaker 5: the double header from the Saint Louis Cardinals yesterday, stacked 735 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:15,480 Speaker 5: eighteen runs in the night cap Raymond what so But no, 736 00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:17,880 Speaker 5: in all seriousness, you know, Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants 737 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 5: in the NFL. 738 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:19,319 Speaker 6: No love loss there. 739 00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,080 Speaker 5: I'm sort of having fun with you, you know, But 740 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:22,919 Speaker 5: for me, it's like it's hard for me to root 741 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,560 Speaker 5: for New York athletes in MMA or otherwise. I'm just saying, so, like, 742 00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 5: when your guys lose, I mean, it's uh, it's bad 743 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:33,239 Speaker 5: for the minute men, you know, for Boston sports fans, 744 00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 5: it's not so bad when Team Longo goes down. 745 00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:38,160 Speaker 6: You got anybody fighting this weekend we can root against. 746 00:36:37,920 --> 00:36:40,400 Speaker 4: Straight no, thank god? 747 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 6: Okay, all right, so can I get to UFC three fourteen? 748 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:44,480 Speaker 3: Let's do it? 749 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 4: Baby? I'm yeah, let's go. 750 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 6: Are you not exciting? That is fucking well. 751 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 4: I think that was the problem with walking into the gym. 752 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:56,200 Speaker 4: That's why I left that out. Everybody's like, I think 753 00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:59,880 Speaker 4: the card wasn't as good as I don't know what 754 00:37:00,080 --> 00:37:02,319 Speaker 4: it was supposed to be, I guess, but that this 755 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,919 Speaker 4: three fourteen everybody's looking forward to. So I think that's 756 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,200 Speaker 4: the good news. When they stack a card the right way, 757 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:10,200 Speaker 4: they stack a card the. 758 00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 6: Right way, all right, time permitting. 759 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 5: I have a question on Jim Miller, who is a 760 00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 5: plus five hundred underdog against Chase Hooper this weekend. Chase 761 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:25,040 Speaker 5: Hooper is minus seven hundred, all right. Alexander Volkanovsky, Raymond 762 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 5: Diego Lopez, Iliotopotia is the champion. The belt will be 763 00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:33,520 Speaker 5: vacant as soon as second one expires off the clock. 764 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:36,520 Speaker 5: Who do you think is the betting favorite in the 765 00:37:36,560 --> 00:37:37,640 Speaker 5: title fight this weekend? 766 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 4: I would think Volkanowski's the betting favorite. 767 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,440 Speaker 5: Volkanovsky minus one forty eight. Diego Lopez is plus one 768 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 5: twenty four. To save your dog Lucky's life. Who wins 769 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 5: the featherweight championship this weekend? 770 00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 4: Man, I tell you I first off, I love both guys. 771 00:37:57,880 --> 00:38:01,399 Speaker 4: They're really both night, really nice people. Yeah, I think 772 00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:05,799 Speaker 4: Bolk does have the edgines. If he's not, he has 773 00:38:05,920 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 4: no uh you know, collateral damage from his list couple 774 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 4: of fights. I mean, I'll put it this way I get, 775 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 4: which I always do, is if this fight was four 776 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,440 Speaker 4: years ago, what are the odds on that fight? 777 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:17,640 Speaker 6: Right? 778 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:23,720 Speaker 4: They huge? I say about that. Yeah, he's not winning 779 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 4: the fight. 780 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:26,120 Speaker 6: I just don't like the question. I just don't like 781 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 6: your question. 782 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:29,799 Speaker 4: I don't like you would you redutions? But but I 783 00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:33,719 Speaker 4: deal with him, so yeah, And I think I don't 784 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:35,920 Speaker 4: like how break your fucking teeth thought. I guess you 785 00:38:35,960 --> 00:38:38,319 Speaker 4: guys are paint in your teeth at this point. What 786 00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 4: are you doing? 787 00:38:39,440 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 5: It's a polion, it's a television camera and I've tried 788 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 5: to optimize the light in here and all right, so 789 00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,400 Speaker 5: it's so, but you sort of fence that when it 790 00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 5: comes to the fight and Kenny has to fend sick 791 00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 5: because he's going to give his pradition coming up here 792 00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 5: in twenty five minutes. But yes, the question peckins on 793 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:01,000 Speaker 5: Alexander Volkanowski right, how close is he to prime? 794 00:39:01,080 --> 00:39:01,319 Speaker 6: Forim? 795 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 5: I think he's thirty six years old. He hasn't fought 796 00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 5: since February of twenty twenty four. There's a huge segment 797 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 5: of the fan base who believes on equivocally that he's 798 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 5: going to be backing better than ever and in his prime. 799 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 5: And then there's another huge segment of people that think 800 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,560 Speaker 5: he's in the twilight of his career and you know, 801 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 5: this is the last guy he should be fighting. 802 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:22,040 Speaker 6: So where do you fall on all of that? 803 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 4: No, I think this is this is a good fight 804 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,200 Speaker 4: for him. I think Tapoori has got unusual power. I 805 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,160 Speaker 4: think Islam he had to move up to fifty five. 806 00:39:31,239 --> 00:39:35,759 Speaker 4: He was the smaller guy there. I don't think Diegle. 807 00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,040 Speaker 4: I don't know, man. I like Diegle, but I'm not 808 00:39:38,080 --> 00:39:41,600 Speaker 4: sure he's got the fire power to stop Volkanowski. I 809 00:39:41,600 --> 00:39:45,800 Speaker 4: think that's where I'm at. I think Volkanowski can dictate 810 00:39:45,840 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 4: the pace of his fight. 811 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:50,920 Speaker 5: All right, So Kenny asked you earlier, is Laron Murphy 812 00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:52,360 Speaker 5: championship material? 813 00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:52,839 Speaker 6: Right? 814 00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 5: I believe Diego Lopez is championship material. He's only getting better. 815 00:39:58,400 --> 00:39:59,880 Speaker 5: His boxing looks outstand. 816 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 4: Yes. Yeah. 817 00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,560 Speaker 5: Do you think Diego Lopez forgetting who's walking out of 818 00:40:04,600 --> 00:40:05,360 Speaker 5: the red corner? 819 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,320 Speaker 6: Do you think Diego Lopez is championship material? 820 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 4: I'm gonna give you a real shitty answer. I think 821 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:15,719 Speaker 4: there's a lot of guys on any night a championship material. 822 00:40:16,560 --> 00:40:19,720 Speaker 4: Can he be a consistent champion, like a dominant champ? 823 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:23,640 Speaker 4: I don't know. I'll pull him for him. I life, 824 00:40:23,719 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 4: he's a nice kid. 825 00:40:24,640 --> 00:40:24,800 Speaker 3: You know. 826 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:28,080 Speaker 4: I don't know. I'm answer, but I'm not feeling that 827 00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,279 Speaker 4: like that, you know what I mean? Like if you 828 00:40:30,320 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 4: were to talk about like Volkanowski when he was coming up, 829 00:40:33,200 --> 00:40:37,640 Speaker 4: he's just crushing everybody and Israel had assignia or even 830 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:41,360 Speaker 4: like why they were different type of people. I'm not 831 00:40:41,640 --> 00:40:44,759 Speaker 4: getting that field, but that doesn't mean anything. But this 832 00:40:44,840 --> 00:40:48,760 Speaker 4: is a sport where it's not you know, like anybody 833 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,680 Speaker 4: on any given night in the top five could be 834 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,680 Speaker 4: a champion. He could win that fight. You know, you 835 00:40:52,719 --> 00:40:55,399 Speaker 4: don't know if the champ comes in he's not feeling good, 836 00:40:55,400 --> 00:40:58,279 Speaker 4: he's dealing with an injury. There's a million things in 837 00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:02,520 Speaker 4: this sport that could happen. But normally, cream rises to 838 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,400 Speaker 4: the top and these guys, the guys that are supposed 839 00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:07,919 Speaker 4: to be champs, figure out a way to win. And 840 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,839 Speaker 4: I think Volkanowski was that guy. Is he still that guy? 841 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:14,880 Speaker 4: Is the question? So yeah, I know, I think it's 842 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,520 Speaker 4: I think it's a great fight for both guys. I 843 00:41:17,560 --> 00:41:20,319 Speaker 4: think it's it's like a fair fight. I think it's 844 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,040 Speaker 4: a great fight for Diego to see exactly where he is. 845 00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 4: And I think it's a great fight for volt Kanowski. 846 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,040 Speaker 4: If he's still there, does he still have yeah? 847 00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:30,880 Speaker 6: Yeah? Before I let Kem flog get in here, right, 848 00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 6: yes or no answer? 849 00:41:32,640 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 5: Movsar Iyevloyev, whom you have quartered against who beat Diego 850 00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,040 Speaker 5: Lopez in his UFC debut? Is that a guy who 851 00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:42,600 Speaker 5: you believe more fits them all of a long reigning 852 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:43,879 Speaker 5: dominant champion For you. 853 00:41:44,360 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 4: Well, he's got the one aspect that could be dominating, So. 854 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, Okay, Ken Floyd without revealing your prediction for this weekend. 855 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:57,000 Speaker 5: Do you believe Diego Lopez has championship potential and material 856 00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 5: is a different question, So do you believe Diego Lopez 857 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 5: is championship material? 858 00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:07,040 Speaker 7: Champions don't have to be perfect fighters, but you don't 859 00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:11,439 Speaker 7: want to see glaring vulnerabilities. And I think that we've 860 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,359 Speaker 7: seen that because of the Evloyev fight. We've seen that 861 00:42:15,080 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 7: in Lopez where you can kind of take him down, 862 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 7: you can control him, you can outpoint him. 863 00:42:20,480 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 6: In that regard. 864 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:25,560 Speaker 7: Lopez, you know, kept the fight very very close. But 865 00:42:27,440 --> 00:42:29,439 Speaker 7: you know, as of right now, would say it can 866 00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 7: he be Yeah, absolutely, he can get better with his wrestling, 867 00:42:32,160 --> 00:42:34,080 Speaker 7: He can get better with his ground game, his ability 868 00:42:34,120 --> 00:42:36,799 Speaker 7: to get right back to his feet. I think those 869 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 7: things can be improved, no question, And that might be 870 00:42:39,120 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 7: that might be the case for this fighting here against Volkanowski, 871 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:45,160 Speaker 7: But based on what I've seen, not quite yet. 872 00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,879 Speaker 5: All right time now for Long goos Locks presented by 873 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,200 Speaker 5: the Chicken Pound, who will never send John Anick free 874 00:42:53,360 --> 00:42:55,200 Speaker 5: chicken as long as our business. 875 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:57,800 Speaker 4: Guy, I will send you a box of chicken tomorrow. 876 00:42:57,560 --> 00:43:01,040 Speaker 6: Volkanovski or Lopez for the record, Long Goes you fence set. 877 00:43:02,680 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 4: Wow. If I had to pick, I would pick Volkanowski. 878 00:43:07,000 --> 00:43:09,600 Speaker 5: Is it because they both acknowledge your legend and they've 879 00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 5: both been so gracious with you that you don't want 880 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:12,439 Speaker 5: to pick? 881 00:43:12,520 --> 00:43:13,400 Speaker 6: Is that the issue? 882 00:43:14,120 --> 00:43:16,000 Speaker 4: I like both guys, I don't like.

Patty Pimlet minus one sixty two Michael Chandler 894 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 5: plus one thirty six. Do you believe Patty pimblet Ray 895 00:43:49,239 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 5: deserves the distinction as the betting favorite this weekend? 896 00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:52,400 Speaker 4: No? 897 00:43:53,920 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 5: Okay, So it sounds like maybe you like Michael Chandler. 898 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 5: So there have been certain guys that I've sort of 899 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,960 Speaker 5: planted my flag on right over the years, guys who 900 00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 5: I think are going to assent right and have the 901 00:44:05,520 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 5: chops to be a world champion that or fight for 902 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 5: the title, whether it's Ian Maschadeogary or even I think 903 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:13,920 Speaker 5: Roul Rosas Junior.

Just our fight weeks are a 1232 00:58:29,960 --> 00:58:31,920 Speaker 8: lot shorter. We're getting in there, so there's still travel, 1233 00:58:32,360 --> 00:58:34,560 Speaker 8: but it is less.

So to answer your question, Yeah, 1255 00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:20,160 Speaker 8: it's still travel, but it's less travel and you're not 1256 00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:21,760 Speaker 8: gone here as much.

You know, 1259 00:59:27,200 --> 00:59:29,720 Speaker 7: back when I was around, we were talking to you know, 1260 00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 7: we didn't have that. Now, what's your take on the 1261 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:33,000 Speaker 7: APEX shows? 1262 00:59:33,040 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 6: And do you think we're gonna see more of those? 1263 00:59:35,920 --> 00:59:39,120 Speaker 7: Because in my opinion, I'm sure there's a lot of 1264 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:42,000 Speaker 7: cities out there that would love to host more UFC 1265 00:59:42,000 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 7: Fight Night, So what's your take on that? 1266 00:59:44,520 --> 00:59:46,680 Speaker 8: So I have a very unique perspective that the Apex 1267 00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 8: is like twelve minutes from my house. So I'm probably 1268 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,760 Speaker 8: more a fan of APEX shows than most because I 1269 00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:52,360 Speaker 8: could drive. 1270 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:54,120 Speaker 3: It right down there and be home fifteen minutes later. 1271 00:59:54,160 --> 00:59:56,960 Speaker 3: So I love them. I do like the Apex. I do. 1272 00:59:57,080 --> 00:59:59,520 Speaker 8: I'm anxious to see, you know, this construction that's going 1273 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:01,840 Speaker 8: on right now and the way they reconfigure it, because 1274 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 8: what I've always said is the space is good. You 1275 01:00:04,040 --> 01:00:06,000 Speaker 8: don't need a huge space. I mean, how many great 1276 01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:08,240 Speaker 8: fight nights where they're at the Pearl at the Palms. 1277 01:00:08,240 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 8: That thing seits sixteen hundred tops, you know, yeah, it 1278 01:00:11,720 --> 01:00:13,840 Speaker 8: was a great place. I mean, all the fans are 1279 01:00:13,920 --> 01:00:16,920 Speaker 8: right on top of it, so, you know, I just 1280 01:00:17,120 --> 01:00:19,360 Speaker 8: I want to see the way it's reconfigured and trying 1281 01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:21,680 Speaker 8: to get some more fans in the building, and and 1282 01:00:21,680 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 8: and the kind of fans that are in there as 1283 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:25,480 Speaker 8: well right now, because right now it's either you know, 1284 01:00:25,560 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 8: half of the places, zoof of guests and in half 1285 01:00:29,120 --> 01:00:32,160 Speaker 8: of the places like these VIP tickets, which is awesome, 1286 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:32,360 Speaker 8: you know. 1287 01:00:32,360 --> 01:00:34,360 Speaker 3: I mean they got crab legs. 1288 01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 8: And prime rib and open bars getting carved off over 1289 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,760 Speaker 8: here for these VIPs, but it's it's missing. 1290 01:00:39,560 --> 01:00:42,640 Speaker 3: Just the average fan, the common fan in there. 1291 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,920 Speaker 8: So I'm anxious to see once this thing gets reconfigured 1292 01:00:45,920 --> 01:00:48,000 Speaker 8: and rebuilt. I'm anxious to see because right now I 1293 01:00:48,040 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 8: get it. I understand the complaints, I understand the frustrations. 1294 01:00:52,160 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 8: I like the closest to my house though, So I'm 1295 01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:55,520 Speaker 8: anxious to see what they do with this construction. 1296 01:00:56,600 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 5: John Morgan, veteran MMA journalists in CFFC gen manager with 1297 01:01:00,720 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 5: US live on the Anak and Florian podcast.

He just hit 1310 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:33,200 Speaker 8: a growth spurt and he's starting to become more of 1311 01:01:33,240 --> 01:01:35,360 Speaker 8: a man than a boy. And I think he's enjoyed 1312 01:01:35,360 --> 01:01:37,560 Speaker 8: a little bit more, but he still trains. He's done 1313 01:01:37,560 --> 01:01:38,920 Speaker 8: it since hes a little kid. And I am a 1314 01:01:39,000 --> 01:01:41,680 Speaker 8: huge advocate that I think every child out there should 1315 01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:44,000 Speaker 8: be training in martial arts, especially grappling arts. 1316 01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:46,960 Speaker 5: So I don't want to spend too much time on 1317 01:01:47,000 --> 01:01:49,400 Speaker 5: the whole APEX thing, right, But when I think about 1318 01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:52,760 Speaker 5: days past, and I moved to Florida in some part 1319 01:01:52,800 --> 01:01:55,240 Speaker 5: because I was going to Brazil six times a year. 1320 01:01:55,320 --> 01:01:57,240 Speaker 5: I think there was a deal in Brazil with Cambace 1321 01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,920 Speaker 5: and Global where we had six fight nights and one 1322 01:02:00,040 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 5: pay per view a year, so seven shows per year 1323 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:05,720 Speaker 5: in Brazil. And then I think about Zagreb, Croatia, and 1324 01:02:05,760 --> 01:02:09,880 Speaker 5: Bangor Maine, Hidalgo, Texas, even Hollywood, Florida. Right, watching Steve 1325 01:02:09,960 --> 01:02:13,520 Speaker 5: BOSSI get his head kicked into the fucking stands, right, Udica, 1326 01:02:13,560 --> 01:02:16,200 Speaker 5: New York a place that I never want to go 1327 01:02:16,360 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 5: back to. Right, But what is the relative upside right 1328 01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:24,120 Speaker 5: in checking those boxes and going to those. 1329 01:02:24,000 --> 01:02:28,080 Speaker 6: Markets now versus then? And what was gained by going there? 1330 01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:30,680 Speaker 5: I don't know the answer, right, Like, I don't mind 1331 01:02:30,720 --> 01:02:32,880 Speaker 5: being in Las Vegas, right, It's the greatest restaurant at 1332 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:36,000 Speaker 5: sports betting city in the world. But you know, if 1333 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:39,080 Speaker 5: I'm a UFC fan in Milwaukee or Indianapolis and I 1334 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:41,240 Speaker 5: don't have the means by which to get to Vegas, 1335 01:02:41,280 --> 01:02:42,800 Speaker 5: you're sort of thinking, like, when am I gonna be 1336 01:02:42,800 --> 01:02:44,120 Speaker 5: able to see one of these things? I might have 1337 01:02:44,200 --> 01:02:45,440 Speaker 5: to drive nine or ten hours. 1338 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:48,600 Speaker 8: Well, it's such a balance, right, I mean, obviously you're 1339 01:02:48,600 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 8: a one hundred ccent, right, Like, I think that's the 1340 01:02:49,960 --> 01:02:52,240 Speaker 8: greatest thing about the UFC is when it travels around 1341 01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 8: like that. There is no live show like the UFC. 1342 01:02:54,760 --> 01:02:57,280 Speaker 8: I mean, they do such a phenomenal job of bringing 1343 01:02:57,280 --> 01:02:59,040 Speaker 8: that energy. And I think once you're a fan, maybe 1344 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:00,960 Speaker 8: watched a little bit on to or whatever, you're like, 1345 01:03:01,000 --> 01:03:02,680 Speaker 8: let me go check it out. You go see a 1346 01:03:02,760 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 8: UFC live event and you walk away going, oh, this 1347 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,240 Speaker 8: is my jam right here for life. Yeah, yeah, you're 1348 01:03:08,240 --> 01:03:10,120 Speaker 8: a fan, right, So there's a huge part of that. 1349 01:03:10,240 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 8: But let's be honest, man. Look, we've all been part 1350 01:03:12,800 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 8: of this traveling road show. How many bodies are we 1351 01:03:15,160 --> 01:03:17,920 Speaker 8: talking about? How many airplane tickets are we buying? How 1352 01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:21,520 Speaker 8: many hotel rooms, how many per dms, how many costs 1353 01:03:21,520 --> 01:03:24,400 Speaker 8: that are completely eliminated when they operate within the APEX. 1354 01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:26,360 Speaker 8: So when you think about it from a business perspective, 1355 01:03:26,480 --> 01:03:29,320 Speaker 8: like honestly, from a pure dollars and cents perspective, they 1356 01:03:29,320 --> 01:03:32,120 Speaker 8: probably should never go anywhere, but the APEX, you don't 1357 01:03:32,120 --> 01:03:34,760 Speaker 8: have to travel anywhere. You got everybody right there, You've 1358 01:03:34,760 --> 01:03:37,400 Speaker 8: got the infrastructure. I mean, trust me as a general 1359 01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,480 Speaker 8: manager of CFFC and learning this side of it. 1360 01:03:39,760 --> 01:03:41,640 Speaker 3: Now, I know a lot more about what a lighting 1361 01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:43,600 Speaker 3: rig costs. Now, I know a lot more about it. 1362 01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:45,600 Speaker 8: What takes to bring in soundsys to about how many 1363 01:03:45,600 --> 01:03:48,040 Speaker 8: hotel rooms you're buying and those are real dollars and 1364 01:03:48,080 --> 01:03:49,720 Speaker 8: cents to talk about it. And I know it's easy 1365 01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:51,960 Speaker 8: to say, well, it's a multi billion dollar business, what 1366 01:03:51,960 --> 01:03:54,200 Speaker 8: are they care? It's still a business, and there's not 1367 01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:56,760 Speaker 8: a lot of mixed martial arts promotions out there making 1368 01:03:56,880 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 8: profit right, and you're in the business landscape, you're not 1369 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:02,160 Speaker 8: in the charity landscape, So there's a real bounce to 1370 01:04:02,200 --> 01:04:04,760 Speaker 8: be strike. All that said, I do like the fact 1371 01:04:04,760 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 8: that Dana White seems to be saying more often we 1372 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:08,960 Speaker 8: need to get out and travel this thing around a 1373 01:04:08,960 --> 01:04:11,160 Speaker 8: little bit. So I don't ever see the APEX going away. 1374 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:13,920 Speaker 8: I mean, obviously they're investing in more infrastructure in it 1375 01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:15,920 Speaker 8: right now, but there is something to be said for 1376 01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:18,400 Speaker 8: getting out to these markets and allowing fans to just 1377 01:04:18,440 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 8: get in the door and experience that live event for 1378 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:23,200 Speaker 8: the first time, because USC does it like nobody else. 1379 01:04:24,080 --> 01:04:26,880 Speaker 5: So if you had to bet on one CFFC fighter, 1380 01:04:26,880 --> 01:04:28,960 Speaker 5: and maybe you can't answer this, I guess as the 1381 01:04:28,960 --> 01:04:30,640 Speaker 5: play by play guy, but if you had to bet 1382 01:04:30,640 --> 01:04:35,240 Speaker 5: on one fighter to realize success in the UFC that 1383 01:04:35,360 --> 01:04:38,200 Speaker 5: is maybe under the age of like twenty three, is 1384 01:04:38,240 --> 01:04:39,920 Speaker 5: there one name on the tip of your tongue? 1385 01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 6: Are there several on per. 1386 01:04:41,880 --> 01:04:45,160 Speaker 8: Bala Hassan, our Rainy flyweight champion. Right now, he's undefeated. 1387 01:04:45,160 --> 01:04:46,960 Speaker 8: He's about twenty three. I think he might have just 1388 01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:48,640 Speaker 8: had his twenty fourth birthday all right in there. But 1389 01:04:48,680 --> 01:04:52,600 Speaker 8: this guy is the total package, right, Like he started 1390 01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:55,040 Speaker 8: out as a striker. He had a viral spinning back 1391 01:04:55,120 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 8: kick knockout and everyone's like, oh wow, incredible striking. But 1392 01:04:57,880 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 8: what happens when he grapples and he's you know, hitting 1393 01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:03,440 Speaker 8: like magic stick, transitions to the back and choking people out. 1394 01:05:03,440 --> 01:05:04,240 Speaker 3: You're like, look at that. 1395 01:05:04,320 --> 01:05:06,800 Speaker 8: Incredible And then he's great on the mic, like he'll 1396 01:05:06,800 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 8: come in sunglasses on some Michael Jackson in the background. 1397 01:05:09,880 --> 01:05:12,360 Speaker 8: So he's a young talent that I'm really really excited 1398 01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:15,600 Speaker 8: about and hopefully maybe see him on Contender Series this year. 1399 01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:19,040 Speaker 8: If not, I will say too, don't rush man get experience. 1400 01:05:19,120 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 8: Like we talked to the guys, you're not just trying 1401 01:05:21,240 --> 01:05:23,000 Speaker 8: to get to the UFC, You're trying to stay in 1402 01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:25,480 Speaker 8: the UFC. You know, look look at Pat Sabatin, he 1403 01:05:25,600 --> 01:05:27,160 Speaker 8: former CFFC champ man. 1404 01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:28,440 Speaker 3: He had a tough goal. 1405 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:30,400 Speaker 8: He almost made it into the UFC early and then 1406 01:05:30,400 --> 01:05:32,080 Speaker 8: he had a weird kind of a freak injury in 1407 01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:33,560 Speaker 8: his arm that set his path in. 1408 01:05:33,840 --> 01:05:34,040 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1409 01:05:34,240 --> 01:05:36,800 Speaker 8: Back, But honestly, getting a little bit more experienced I 1410 01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:38,400 Speaker 8: don't think is a bad thing because you saw that 1411 01:05:38,440 --> 01:05:42,000 Speaker 8: performance he had, man, it's a it was incredible, And 1412 01:05:42,200 --> 01:05:44,200 Speaker 8: I think that's a big thing that young talent has 1413 01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:46,080 Speaker 8: to balance, right, is that you want to get to 1414 01:05:46,080 --> 01:05:48,360 Speaker 8: the big stage as quickly as possible, obviously because you 1415 01:05:48,400 --> 01:05:51,640 Speaker 8: want those eyeballs, you want those bigger paychecks. But don't forget, man, 1416 01:05:51,680 --> 01:05:53,439 Speaker 8: the goal is not to get there, it's to stay there. 1417 01:05:53,600 --> 01:05:58,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, Balal Hassan six and oh born in Honolulu, Hawaii. 1418 01:05:58,800 --> 01:05:59,840 Speaker 6: Will keep an eye on him. 1419 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:01,320 Speaker 5: A right, John Morgan on the way out and you 1420 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:02,960 Speaker 5: can follow this man by the way at John Morgan 1421 01:06:03,080 --> 01:06:06,680 Speaker 5: Underscore MMA on x at John Morgan MMA on Instagram. 1422 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:09,000 Speaker 5: I'm gonna give you four fighters competing at UFC three 1423 01:06:09,120 --> 01:06:12,000 Speaker 5: fourteen this weekend, and you're gonna tell me, among these 1424 01:06:12,040 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 5: four men who you think is most likely to have 1425 01:06:15,040 --> 01:06:18,120 Speaker 5: their hand raised.

I think the guy's a very talented 1635 01:15:51,439 --> 01:15:53,599 Speaker 2: but minus three sixty that's a big number on this guy. 1636 01:15:53,960 --> 01:15:57,000 Speaker 2: What am I doing? But something tells me A Rosa 1637 01:15:57,080 --> 01:15:58,719 Speaker 2: is gonna do a little bit of club and sub 1638 01:15:58,760 --> 01:16:01,799 Speaker 2: a little bit of something. He's got great dars, great n'connor, 1639 01:16:01,880 --> 01:16:04,800 Speaker 2: great guillotine. Darren Elkins likes to scramble. He has some 1640 01:16:04,840 --> 01:16:07,160 Speaker 2: good submission defense. But I think if he gets wrapped 1641 01:16:07,240 --> 01:16:09,920 Speaker 2: up with this long armed dude inn Rosa, who's good 1642 01:16:09,920 --> 01:16:12,559 Speaker 2: at krack, who's explosive on the feet, I think he 1643 01:16:12,640 --> 01:16:14,720 Speaker 2: might go out. I'm playing a Rosa. I'm gonna cut 1644 01:16:14,720 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 2: that number, but props not out. Yeah, but give me 1645 01:16:16,840 --> 01:16:19,240 Speaker 2: a Rosa by sub. I think he's gonna get the 1646 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:20,439 Speaker 2: damage out of there, man. 1647 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:25,639 Speaker 6: The damage. Darren Elkins Ken Flow is a man. 1648 01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:31,320 Speaker 5: He is forty kenny thirtieth UFC appearance for Darren Elkins. 1649 01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:33,040 Speaker 6: How about nineteen and ten. 1650 01:16:34,120 --> 01:16:37,439 Speaker 5: That's pretty good, you know, winning percentage near sixty seven percent. 1651 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:40,200 Speaker 5: He's won two in a row, three of four. Last 1652 01:16:40,240 --> 01:16:43,639 Speaker 5: win for Darren Elkins unanimous decision against Daniel Pineda October 1653 01:16:43,720 --> 01:16:47,200 Speaker 5: nineteenth of last year. Last man to finish Darren Elkins 1654 01:16:47,800 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 5: cub Swanson back in twenty twenty one, Erosa has twenty 1655 01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:53,040 Speaker 5: five mma finishes. 1656 01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:54,599 Speaker 6: Something's got to give. Who do you like? Ken flow? 1657 01:16:56,160 --> 01:16:58,000 Speaker 7: This is gonna be a fun fight while at lasts 1658 01:16:58,200 --> 01:17:00,519 Speaker 7: I think, you know, if someone can get the other 1659 01:17:00,560 --> 01:17:03,400 Speaker 7: one out of there, it's probably Eurosa. But don't let 1660 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,880 Speaker 7: Darren Elkins stick around for too long. The Demage, I 1661 01:17:06,920 --> 01:17:10,320 Speaker 7: call him the demage. This guy is nice, an absolute beast. 1662 01:17:11,479 --> 01:17:15,120 Speaker 7: But I think Arosa I think his striking is gonna 1663 01:17:15,120 --> 01:17:17,000 Speaker 7: be a little bit sharper. I think a submission game 1664 01:17:17,080 --> 01:17:19,120 Speaker 7: is probably gonna be better. But Elkins does a good 1665 01:17:19,200 --> 01:17:22,000 Speaker 7: job of getting you down, controlling you can lance a 1666 01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:25,800 Speaker 7: big grounder pound. But I think Erosa realizes he needs 1667 01:17:25,840 --> 01:17:27,479 Speaker 7: this win. These are the kind of wins that he 1668 01:17:27,520 --> 01:17:29,519 Speaker 7: needs to stick around to the UFC and get some 1669 01:17:29,560 --> 01:17:32,360 Speaker 7: more success. So I'm leaning the way of Erosa. But 1670 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:34,639 Speaker 7: like BP, I think it's kind of a big number there, 1671 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:35,840 Speaker 7: all right. 1672 01:17:35,840 --> 01:17:39,479 Speaker 5: Next up, Men's lightweight division, Chase Hooper modus seven hundred, 1673 01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:42,920 Speaker 5: Jim Miller plus five hundred. Hooper's won four in a row. 1674 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,439 Speaker 5: Don't look now, he has vaulted to seven and three 1675 01:17:45,439 --> 01:17:48,880 Speaker 5: in the UFC BR last three wins all submissions. Clay 1676 01:17:48,920 --> 01:17:53,960 Speaker 5: Waita Cheslav Barshov at Jordan Levitt UFC Star number forty 1677 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:56,000 Speaker 5: six for Jim Miller Patree, Who do you love? 1678 01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:59,000 Speaker 2: It's unbelievable. I mean this Chase super guy, right, I 1679 01:17:59,000 --> 01:18:02,200 Speaker 2: mean we were talking maybe two years ago about is 1680 01:18:02,240 --> 01:18:04,760 Speaker 2: he ready for to be in the UFC. The story's great, 1681 01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:07,040 Speaker 2: but he got knocked around by Steve Garcia bad. We 1682 01:18:07,080 --> 01:18:09,400 Speaker 2: all were worried about him. This guy just puts his 1683 01:18:09,439 --> 01:18:10,680 Speaker 2: head down and goes, you know, I'm gonna grind. I'm 1684 01:18:10,680 --> 01:18:12,519 Speaker 2: gonna grind him to get better. I'm gonna find out 1685 01:18:12,720 --> 01:18:15,599 Speaker 2: what my striking is with my body type, my range 1686 01:18:15,640 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 2: or whatever. He knocked around Slava Claus in that fight. 1687 01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 2: He's obviously great on the ground. His scrambles are good. 1688 01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:24,280 Speaker 2: He's improved his wrestling. I've seen him on the ground 1689 01:18:24,280 --> 01:18:25,800 Speaker 2: with people, and I really don't see a lot of 1690 01:18:25,800 --> 01:18:28,000 Speaker 2: people being able to pin him down and hold him down. 1691 01:18:28,240 --> 01:18:31,759 Speaker 2: He's very scrambled. He's very good. He's obviously submissions high, IQ, 1692 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:34,559 Speaker 2: but you're running the cars. Jim Miller, who's been in 1693 01:18:34,600 --> 01:18:37,760 Speaker 2: this sport, I think double the time Chase Hooper has 1694 01:18:37,760 --> 01:18:40,280 Speaker 2: been a lot, right, I mean, I mean with Chase Hooper. Baby, 1695 01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:42,639 Speaker 2: when Jim Miller was fighting UC, Jim Miller is really 1696 01:18:42,680 --> 01:18:45,479 Speaker 2: good jiu jitsu off his back. He get a little stagnant. 1697 01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:46,960 Speaker 2: But this is the guy who smina Charles Alver. This 1698 01:18:46,960 --> 01:18:48,640 Speaker 2: is a guy. He's got a lot of submissions and 1699 01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:52,000 Speaker 2: has fought Who's who. Yes he's in his forties, Yes 1700 01:18:52,040 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 2: he's all this. But guess what Vegas I think fucked 1701 01:18:56,080 --> 01:18:59,839 Speaker 2: up here plus five hundred plus five twenty five currently 1702 01:19:00,280 --> 01:19:04,040 Speaker 2: on Jim Miller. I call this vacation pay baby, because 1703 01:19:04,080 --> 01:19:07,160 Speaker 2: this pain from my vag gay Jahow give me Jimmy 1704 01:19:07,200 --> 01:19:10,120 Speaker 2: Miller up. That was sweet right there. That's like David 1705 01:19:10,160 --> 01:19:12,960 Speaker 2: Carusa from CSI type shit right there. If you want 1706 01:19:12,960 --> 01:19:15,000 Speaker 2: to play the CCI theme, I won't be mad. Give 1707 01:19:15,040 --> 01:19:15,920 Speaker 2: me Jim Miller. 1708 01:19:15,960 --> 01:19:16,560 Speaker 6: Wow. 1709 01:19:16,920 --> 01:19:19,240 Speaker 5: Miller to get his twenty eighth UFC win. He has 1710 01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:24,479 Speaker 5: won three of four submitted Damon Jackson last November UFC 1711 01:19:24,520 --> 01:19:27,200 Speaker 5: three h nine. Last time Jim Miller was a finished 1712 01:19:27,200 --> 01:19:30,479 Speaker 5: can flow Charles olivera at twenty eighteen. A lot of 1713 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:32,920 Speaker 5: people think Chase Hooper might get him this weekend. Who 1714 01:19:32,920 --> 01:19:34,920 Speaker 5: do you like if. 1715 01:19:34,760 --> 01:19:38,320 Speaker 7: He does get him, I would then kind of be 1716 01:19:38,439 --> 01:19:42,000 Speaker 7: backing Chase Hooper here. I haven't always been on that train, 1717 01:19:42,640 --> 01:19:44,799 Speaker 7: like Brian talked about. I think there were some growing 1718 01:19:44,840 --> 01:19:46,840 Speaker 7: pains when he first came into the UFC. He was 1719 01:19:47,120 --> 01:19:50,320 Speaker 7: figuring out how to get better as a striker. I 1720 01:19:50,360 --> 01:19:54,439 Speaker 7: think he has improved there and you know, has grown 1721 01:19:54,479 --> 01:19:57,200 Speaker 7: into into his body a little bit more, looks stronger 1722 01:19:58,120 --> 01:20:01,400 Speaker 7: and looks more confident as a result as well. But 1723 01:20:01,720 --> 01:20:04,120 Speaker 7: that's a big number. That is a very big number. 1724 01:20:04,120 --> 01:20:06,720 Speaker 7: And Jim Miller is a submission artist himself. He's not 1725 01:20:06,760 --> 01:20:08,639 Speaker 7: going to be an easy guy to get out of there. 1726 01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:10,160 Speaker 7: And if you are going to get him out of 1727 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:12,720 Speaker 7: there with a submission or some kind of ground pound 1728 01:20:12,760 --> 01:20:14,680 Speaker 7: the you're gonna have to hurt him big time on 1729 01:20:14,720 --> 01:20:17,559 Speaker 7: the feet. And I don't think Chase Hooper is quite 1730 01:20:17,560 --> 01:20:20,479 Speaker 7: that guy. I think the easy choice here will go, Yeah, dude, 1731 01:20:20,520 --> 01:20:24,240 Speaker 7: Chase Hooper. He's younger, he's getting better, all that stuff. 1732 01:20:24,640 --> 01:20:28,679 Speaker 7: But I like Jim Miller here as well, and uh, 1733 01:20:28,720 --> 01:20:29,400 Speaker 7: you might want. 1734 01:20:29,200 --> 01:20:31,080 Speaker 6: To stick around. Maybe I put a little, just a 1735 01:20:31,120 --> 01:20:32,120 Speaker 6: little sprinkle on. 1736 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:38,599 Speaker 5: Checking the live odds right now on DraftKings Sportsbook. Jim 1737 01:20:38,640 --> 01:20:41,639 Speaker 5: Miller is now plus five twenty five, so the number 1738 01:20:41,720 --> 01:20:47,240 Speaker 5: is getting even bigger. Chase Sooper honest seven fifty Shawwick 1739 01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:51,400 Speaker 5: division vaka Gora Jangidoba minus one forty eight. Yan shaw 1740 01:20:51,439 --> 01:20:54,759 Speaker 5: Nan is plus one twenty four. I made a typing 1741 01:20:54,880 --> 01:20:56,519 Speaker 5: error when I sent you guys the odds, but being 1742 01:20:56,560 --> 01:20:59,000 Speaker 5: a Jangi Doba is minus one forty eight right now 1743 01:20:59,320 --> 01:21:01,320 Speaker 5: she's one four. Rose submitted him on to Lemos with 1744 01:21:01,360 --> 01:21:04,599 Speaker 5: an arbar last July, nearly fought Tatiana Suarez instead, Bry 1745 01:21:04,880 --> 01:21:07,639 Speaker 5: It'll be Yon shann On huge fight in the women's 1746 01:21:07,640 --> 01:21:08,439 Speaker 5: straweight division. 1747 01:21:08,800 --> 01:21:09,960 Speaker 6: Who do you fancy here? BP? 1748 01:21:10,479 --> 01:21:12,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like this fight a lot. It's it's gonna 1749 01:21:12,760 --> 01:21:16,280 Speaker 2: be competitive. I think it's interesting because Zoba, which I know, 1750 01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:20,639 Speaker 2: thank you. She uh she's a great grappler, but she's 1751 01:21:20,680 --> 01:21:22,800 Speaker 2: also really learning how to strike. I think earlier in 1752 01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:25,640 Speaker 2: the UFC she didn't really blend it well together. She 1753 01:21:25,680 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 2: wasn't a full mixed martial orders yet now she is. 1754 01:21:28,479 --> 01:21:31,040 Speaker 2: Now she can stay on the feet because not as fast, 1755 01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:33,960 Speaker 2: She's got quick hands. She can box. He's great, but 1756 01:21:34,479 --> 01:21:36,599 Speaker 2: her because of Chillies Hills is in the past. When 1757 01:21:36,640 --> 01:21:38,920 Speaker 2: she gets put to the ground. It's a bit rough. 1758 01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:44,000 Speaker 2: So if Jenjijoba really really clinches and really hunts for 1759 01:21:44,000 --> 01:21:46,920 Speaker 2: a takedown, it's gonna be exhausting for Yansky's austing for 1760 01:21:46,960 --> 01:21:49,639 Speaker 2: both women. I think Genjizoba has to mix things up here. 1761 01:21:49,680 --> 01:21:52,280 Speaker 2: I'm very confident in her in this spot. I like 1762 01:21:52,360 --> 01:21:54,720 Speaker 2: the low number. I love a good low number. I'm 1763 01:21:54,720 --> 01:21:56,439 Speaker 2: gonna put it in there, and I'm gonna, you know, 1764 01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:58,439 Speaker 2: probably put her in a lot of parlays this weekend 1765 01:21:58,439 --> 01:22:01,000 Speaker 2: for myself. Am I a parlay player? Say yeah, I 1766 01:22:01,120 --> 01:22:02,840 Speaker 2: like this spot, I like the low number. Get a 1767 01:22:02,880 --> 01:22:04,920 Speaker 2: nice little juice part lay you need jenji Zoba. I 1768 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:06,920 Speaker 2: think she won by decision. I don't know if she'll 1769 01:22:06,960 --> 01:22:08,240 Speaker 2: get her out of there. If she does, we'll be 1770 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,240 Speaker 2: by submission. Maybe later in the week. I'll have a 1771 01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:13,560 Speaker 2: stronger take, But right now, Jenjidoba by decision. 1772 01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:13,960 Speaker 6: Kem foll. 1773 01:22:14,040 --> 01:22:16,639 Speaker 5: Jan Channon's going to need some style points if Jean 1774 01:22:16,680 --> 01:22:17,920 Speaker 5: Wayley remains the champion. 1775 01:22:18,000 --> 01:22:20,480 Speaker 6: She got her shot at UFC three hundred. It was competitive. 1776 01:22:20,560 --> 01:22:23,879 Speaker 5: She then responded with a win over Tabitha Ricci last November, 1777 01:22:23,920 --> 01:22:26,360 Speaker 5: but a lot of eyeballs on jan Gidoba to see 1778 01:22:26,360 --> 01:22:28,439 Speaker 5: if she can break through and sort of cement herself 1779 01:22:28,439 --> 01:22:30,160 Speaker 5: truly as the number one contender, how do you see 1780 01:22:30,200 --> 01:22:30,599 Speaker 5: a plan out? 1781 01:22:31,200 --> 01:22:34,200 Speaker 7: Well, Jan Chouanon showed that she knows how to survive 1782 01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:38,000 Speaker 7: on the ground, she knows how to stop takedowns pretty well, 1783 01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:41,559 Speaker 7: and she's proven to be a potent striker. But you know, 1784 01:22:41,760 --> 01:22:44,520 Speaker 7: just like her potency on the feet, I think that Jungjidoba, 1785 01:22:45,360 --> 01:22:49,519 Speaker 7: you know, has a submission submission skill that is also potent. 1786 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:52,639 Speaker 7: And I think that Junjidoba is putting together much better 1787 01:22:52,680 --> 01:22:55,960 Speaker 7: as Brian said. And I think if it was five rounds, 1788 01:22:56,320 --> 01:22:58,200 Speaker 7: I might lean the way of Yon chau Nan. 1789 01:22:58,920 --> 01:23:01,479 Speaker 6: But because it's the three round I like John Gydoba here. 1790 01:23:01,680 --> 01:23:04,559 Speaker 7: I think she's gonna know how to control this fight, 1791 01:23:04,640 --> 01:23:08,880 Speaker 7: get her up against the cage, slow Yon Chownan down 1792 01:23:09,479 --> 01:23:11,559 Speaker 7: and get to that back and I think she will 1793 01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:12,360 Speaker 7: be able to finish. 1794 01:23:12,479 --> 01:23:14,479 Speaker 6: I wouldn't be surprised if she gets the sub here. 1795 01:23:15,120 --> 01:23:18,320 Speaker 7: Shannon has been improving her grappling a great deal, but 1796 01:23:18,680 --> 01:23:21,280 Speaker 7: I like John John Gidoba here as well. 1797 01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,360 Speaker 6: Now I'm struggling with the name. Huh all right? 1798 01:23:23,400 --> 01:23:23,519 Speaker 4: Now. 1799 01:23:23,560 --> 01:23:26,800 Speaker 5: Featured prelim Featherweight Division Sean Woodson minus one fifty five 1800 01:23:26,920 --> 01:23:32,400 Speaker 5: Dan fifty k Egay plus one thirty Egay Briye ten 1801 01:23:32,479 --> 01:23:36,240 Speaker 5: and eight in the UFC after losses in three of 1802 01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:38,840 Speaker 5: his last four, and you know that doesn't sit well 1803 01:23:38,880 --> 01:23:41,360 Speaker 5: with him. Danny Gay doesn't consider himself close to a 1804 01:23:41,360 --> 01:23:46,759 Speaker 5: five hundred fighter. Very interesting spot for him here because Woodson, 1805 01:23:46,800 --> 01:23:48,839 Speaker 5: despite the seven to one on one in the UFC, 1806 01:23:49,640 --> 01:23:53,360 Speaker 5: is experiencing a real significant step up in competition, despite 1807 01:23:53,360 --> 01:23:55,439 Speaker 5: the fact that he's won four in a row. I mean, 1808 01:23:55,479 --> 01:23:59,599 Speaker 5: Woodson hasn't lost since COVID nineteen bro June twenty, twenty twenty. 1809 01:24:00,120 --> 01:24:02,519 Speaker 5: Deserves the EGA fight now. The question beckins Brian, what 1810 01:24:02,520 --> 01:24:03,160 Speaker 5: does he do with it? 1811 01:24:03,520 --> 01:24:06,000 Speaker 2: I like Sean Woodson. I like Sean Woodson's mentality. I 1812 01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:07,880 Speaker 2: like the way he's getting better as well, and he's 1813 01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:10,120 Speaker 2: finally like you know the guys. I know, he's listed 1814 01:24:10,120 --> 01:24:12,400 Speaker 2: at what six two sixty three, he fights like he's 1815 01:24:12,439 --> 01:24:14,640 Speaker 2: starting to fight like he's seven foot now, right with 1816 01:24:14,720 --> 01:24:16,840 Speaker 2: those long, long limbs, and it makes him look so 1817 01:24:16,920 --> 01:24:19,759 Speaker 2: much longer being at this lower weight. He's finally starting 1818 01:24:19,800 --> 01:24:22,519 Speaker 2: to do really good with his weapons. He's coming off 1819 01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:25,599 Speaker 2: a knockout loss or knockout win, excuse me, which is great. However, 1820 01:24:26,240 --> 01:24:28,920 Speaker 2: his defense still worries me a little bit. This screams 1821 01:24:29,000 --> 01:24:33,200 Speaker 2: to me Adrian Yez versus Rob Fontianez was the up 1822 01:24:33,240 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 2: and coming guy ran against a vet like Rob vont 1823 01:24:35,240 --> 01:24:37,639 Speaker 2: Ron fault. It's like yo, not not, You're not ready yet, 1824 01:24:37,720 --> 01:24:40,200 Speaker 2: right Seohn Woodson four in a row, but Danny Gay 1825 01:24:40,479 --> 01:24:43,160 Speaker 2: has fault to who's who? He still has a power. 1826 01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:45,720 Speaker 2: His defensive wrestling is not great. I don't think Sean 1827 01:24:45,720 --> 01:24:47,639 Speaker 2: Woodson's gonna really be a factor there. I think it's 1828 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:49,439 Speaker 2: could be on the feet and I just think John 1829 01:24:49,439 --> 01:24:51,880 Speaker 2: Woodson's defense scares me enough that I'm gonna go to 1830 01:24:51,960 --> 01:24:54,800 Speaker 2: underdog gain. Hege really surprised by this line is too 1831 01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:57,080 Speaker 2: This is something that you could load up on on Danigue. 1832 01:24:57,160 --> 01:24:59,840 Speaker 2: I just think experience really matters, considering dany Ggue is 1833 01:24:59,880 --> 01:25:02,479 Speaker 2: not forty years old. He has experienced and he's still 1834 01:25:02,560 --> 01:25:04,599 Speaker 2: right there, ready to compete with some of the best 1835 01:25:04,600 --> 01:25:06,400 Speaker 2: in the world. And I think he gets Sean Woodson 1836 01:25:06,400 --> 01:25:06,880 Speaker 2: this weekend. 1837 01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:08,320 Speaker 6: Fascinating matchup. 1838 01:25:08,360 --> 01:25:10,800 Speaker 5: Can't flow to see if Egay can find a way 1839 01:25:10,840 --> 01:25:12,800 Speaker 5: to let that long body hit the floor or if 1840 01:25:12,840 --> 01:25:15,000 Speaker 5: he's going to get jabbed up by Sean Woodson. I 1841 01:25:15,040 --> 01:25:17,720 Speaker 5: love the stylistic clash. Will need a prediction if you'd 1842 01:25:17,760 --> 01:25:18,719 Speaker 5: be so concent flow. 1843 01:25:18,880 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, And it's fascinating to see if Sean Woodson's going 1844 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 7: to be the real deal. But this is the most 1845 01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 7: challenging matchup he has had. Dan Egay, as Brian talked about, 1846 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:29,719 Speaker 7: has a ton of experience and you can't forget about 1847 01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:30,599 Speaker 7: Egay's power. 1848 01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:30,920 Speaker 6: Now. 1849 01:25:31,280 --> 01:25:34,880 Speaker 7: Woodson, if he stays disciplined, and if he minds his 1850 01:25:34,960 --> 01:25:37,360 Speaker 7: p's and q's just like Lero Murphy did, then he 1851 01:25:37,400 --> 01:25:41,080 Speaker 7: can absolutely win this fight. His length, his jab, those 1852 01:25:41,080 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 7: long range weapons, his ability to establish that range and 1853 01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 7: keep it can keep him on the winning side here. 1854 01:25:47,200 --> 01:25:50,759 Speaker 6: But Ega is probably going to find a way. 1855 01:25:50,640 --> 01:25:52,759 Speaker 7: To get on the inside at least a few times 1856 01:25:52,800 --> 01:25:56,240 Speaker 7: per round, and if he does that, Woodson can get 1857 01:25:56,320 --> 01:25:58,920 Speaker 7: hit sometimes that chin is up in the air. To 1858 01:25:59,040 --> 01:26:01,320 Speaker 7: be long and tall is an advantage in many ways, 1859 01:26:01,320 --> 01:26:03,360 Speaker 7: but it's also a disadvantage in a lot of ways 1860 01:26:03,400 --> 01:26:06,680 Speaker 7: as well. And I think Ega, if his footwork is 1861 01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:09,720 Speaker 7: on point, which he's been improving, uh, I think I 1862 01:26:09,720 --> 01:26:12,400 Speaker 7: think can win this fight. Not to mention, I think 1863 01:26:12,760 --> 01:26:15,040 Speaker 7: could could take this fight to the ground and utilize 1864 01:26:15,040 --> 01:26:15,639 Speaker 7: his ground game. 1865 01:26:15,760 --> 01:26:18,479 Speaker 6: So give me eg you. 1866 01:26:18,479 --> 01:26:21,479 Speaker 5: Can have him plus one thirty right now, plus one 1867 01:26:21,560 --> 01:26:24,960 Speaker 5: thirty six actually the live on on DraftKings sportsbook. All right, 1868 01:26:25,000 --> 01:26:27,840 Speaker 5: now we get to the main car for UFC three 1869 01:26:27,920 --> 01:26:30,040 Speaker 5: fourteen Live on pay per view Light Heavyweight Division. You 1870 01:26:30,080 --> 01:26:31,880 Speaker 5: guys were both looking down. You thought I was having 1871 01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 5: like a fucking heart attack. I'm okay, Rodic Krillov, you 1872 01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:36,559 Speaker 5: thought I was. You thought I was hurting or what 1873 01:26:36,760 --> 01:26:37,160 Speaker 5: I mean? 1874 01:26:37,200 --> 01:26:39,280 Speaker 2: I thought you were stretching back. I thought maybe you. 1875 01:26:39,280 --> 01:26:41,040 Speaker 6: Pull a chair again. 1876 01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:43,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe something I don't know I was looking at. 1877 01:26:43,880 --> 01:26:49,320 Speaker 6: It's not like my mom's chairs. Mine actually aren't. Did 1878 01:26:49,320 --> 01:26:50,960 Speaker 6: you win that lawsuit? By the way, have you won 1879 01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:51,760 Speaker 6: that lawsuit yet? 1880 01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:52,000 Speaker 3: Yeah? 1881 01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:54,720 Speaker 6: Mom? Okay, fucking sue your ass. 1882 01:26:56,120 --> 01:26:59,280 Speaker 5: Nakita Kilov minus one ninety two donic race plus one 1883 01:26:59,360 --> 01:27:00,720 Speaker 5: sixty races one two in a row. 1884 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:02,880 Speaker 6: He has thirty five. Krilov has won three in a row. 1885 01:27:03,080 --> 01:27:03,200 Speaker 4: Now. 1886 01:27:03,280 --> 01:27:06,880 Speaker 5: Kilov hasn't fought since March of twenty twenty three. That 1887 01:27:06,960 --> 01:27:09,320 Speaker 5: was when he submitted Ryan Spam with a triangle. He 1888 01:27:09,360 --> 01:27:12,360 Speaker 5: has also beaten Alexander Gustuvson in Volkcanusimir. During this active 1889 01:27:12,360 --> 01:27:14,880 Speaker 5: winning streak, he has finished twenty eight of his thirty 1890 01:27:14,880 --> 01:27:17,000 Speaker 5: professional wins, and he has favored near two to one 1891 01:27:17,000 --> 01:27:20,559 Speaker 5: this weekend over Dominic Rays. Brian Petrie Man Card starts 1892 01:27:20,600 --> 01:27:21,559 Speaker 5: with you, my friend, go ahead. 1893 01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:21,960 Speaker 6: Yeah. 1894 01:27:22,000 --> 01:27:24,160 Speaker 2: When I was doing research in this fight, I was shocked. 1895 01:27:24,200 --> 01:27:26,160 Speaker 2: I mean I could have I could have someone put 1896 01:27:26,200 --> 01:27:27,519 Speaker 2: a gun in my headud his how old is the 1897 01:27:27,560 --> 01:27:29,880 Speaker 2: key to Kriloff? I would have said forty seven. Guy's 1898 01:27:29,920 --> 01:27:34,639 Speaker 2: thirty two. Right, He's been around forever and he's absolute nails. 1899 01:27:34,880 --> 01:27:37,760 Speaker 2: His biggest issue throughout his career is when Guy's been 1900 01:27:37,800 --> 01:27:39,320 Speaker 2: able to get him down and get on top, he 1901 01:27:39,439 --> 01:27:42,000 Speaker 2: kind of wilt, gets submitted. Dominic Gray has doesn't have 1902 01:27:42,040 --> 01:27:44,559 Speaker 2: that in his bag. Dominic Gray is super athletic, coming 1903 01:27:44,640 --> 01:27:47,840 Speaker 2: off really two good wins, looking like the Dominic Rays 1904 01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 2: that kind of fought John Jones. He went through a 1905 01:27:49,360 --> 01:27:51,640 Speaker 2: ton of shit, a ton of physical, ton ofmental. It 1906 01:27:51,680 --> 01:27:53,519 Speaker 2: looks like he's coming back. He's got some good wins 1907 01:27:53,560 --> 01:27:56,120 Speaker 2: and he still has that big, big power. He's got 1908 01:27:56,200 --> 01:27:58,280 Speaker 2: such a long frame that I don't know if he 1909 01:27:58,320 --> 01:28:00,240 Speaker 2: has it in his bag. He hasn't shown it, but 1910 01:28:00,280 --> 01:28:02,160 Speaker 2: if he if he developed a really good front choke, 1911 01:28:02,200 --> 01:28:04,599 Speaker 2: a really good Dar's a really good anaconda with those 1912 01:28:04,680 --> 01:28:08,120 Speaker 2: fucking long's arms, that body, he would be something in there, right, 1913 01:28:08,360 --> 01:28:09,800 Speaker 2: But I just don't think he has, at least he 1914 01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:11,880 Speaker 2: hasn't shown it. But I like his power. I like 1915 01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:13,840 Speaker 2: his overall game here. I think he's gonna stay out 1916 01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:16,720 Speaker 2: of uh, stay out of trouble if it does hit 1917 01:28:16,760 --> 01:28:18,960 Speaker 2: the mat, because I think Nikhila Kilov does have some 1918 01:28:19,040 --> 01:28:21,960 Speaker 2: tricks on the mat. I like Reyes here. I never 1919 01:28:21,960 --> 01:28:24,640 Speaker 2: picked Domina Gray as ever, the offense not rays I 1920 01:28:24,680 --> 01:28:26,599 Speaker 2: just don't do it. But I like him here at 1921 01:28:26,600 --> 01:28:28,040 Speaker 2: the dog money. I think he can get it done. 1922 01:28:28,080 --> 01:28:30,040 Speaker 2: I don't know if he can finish a guy like Kriloff, 1923 01:28:30,080 --> 01:28:32,680 Speaker 2: but yeah, give me don Reys kem Flow. 1924 01:28:32,720 --> 01:28:35,599 Speaker 5: They're all chasing the maga met ank Eliev, a man 1925 01:28:36,479 --> 01:28:39,120 Speaker 5: against whom Nikida Kilov has experience. What do you think 1926 01:28:39,160 --> 01:28:40,439 Speaker 5: about this one two oh five. 1927 01:28:40,360 --> 01:28:44,639 Speaker 6: Kid, This is a tricky one. I think that krillof. 1928 01:28:45,560 --> 01:28:48,519 Speaker 7: I'm giving him the advantage here just because you know, 1929 01:28:48,560 --> 01:28:50,840 Speaker 7: while he does have a ton of fights under his spelt, 1930 01:28:50,880 --> 01:28:53,120 Speaker 7: I don't know if he has as much mileage maybe 1931 01:28:53,360 --> 01:28:57,280 Speaker 7: as Rays and Reyes has shown improvement and again to 1932 01:28:57,320 --> 01:29:01,559 Speaker 7: see him back and looking good again is awesome. I 1933 01:29:01,600 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 7: really like the way he approaches the sport, you know, 1934 01:29:03,560 --> 01:29:07,200 Speaker 7: true professional, all that good stuff. But I think Kriloff's 1935 01:29:07,240 --> 01:29:09,599 Speaker 7: volume is going to be the difference here, just his ability. 1936 01:29:09,600 --> 01:29:11,760 Speaker 6: Even if he doesn't get the takedown. I think he 1937 01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:12,639 Speaker 6: just throws more. 1938 01:29:12,680 --> 01:29:15,920 Speaker 7: He stays a little active sometimes, isn't so aware of 1939 01:29:15,960 --> 01:29:18,120 Speaker 7: his pacing, and if he gets too tired in round three, 1940 01:29:18,200 --> 01:29:20,120 Speaker 7: that's where Rays can take advantage and land one of 1941 01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:26,400 Speaker 7: those big shots. But I think Kreeloff, I think his pacing, 1942 01:29:26,439 --> 01:29:30,400 Speaker 7: his pressure may get to Rays a little bit. Rays 1943 01:29:30,439 --> 01:29:33,720 Speaker 7: has got to let those hands go. So give me 1944 01:29:33,800 --> 01:29:37,040 Speaker 7: krill Off here and I'll go the opposite route here. 1945 01:29:37,360 --> 01:29:39,280 Speaker 5: It feels like sort of a chaotic way to begin 1946 01:29:39,360 --> 01:29:41,600 Speaker 5: the main card, one way or another, and that is 1947 01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:44,160 Speaker 5: just the way the UFC likes it, all right. Featherweight division, 1948 01:29:44,400 --> 01:29:47,439 Speaker 5: Yeah needn Rodriguez minus one ninety eight, Patricio Pitbull plus 1949 01:29:47,479 --> 01:29:50,400 Speaker 5: one sixty four. Here we go, folks. UFC debut for 1950 01:29:50,439 --> 01:29:52,000 Speaker 5: Pitbull and I got it right here in my notes. 1951 01:29:52,040 --> 01:29:54,840 Speaker 5: I couldn't fight it earlier. UFC debut comes for him 1952 01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:59,639 Speaker 5: at thirty seven years old, former three time Bellator featherweight champion, 1953 01:30:00,000 --> 01:30:04,719 Speaker 5: Elator lightweight champion, as big time a resume as any 1954 01:30:04,760 --> 01:30:06,760 Speaker 5: incoming UFC fighter has ever had. 1955 01:30:06,800 --> 01:30:09,040 Speaker 6: Belatour was number two to the UFC for most of 1956 01:30:09,080 --> 01:30:09,559 Speaker 6: his career. 1957 01:30:09,600 --> 01:30:13,679 Speaker 5: Brian, he's arguably the most accomplished fighter ever under that banner. Now, 1958 01:30:13,800 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 5: what does he have for the disturbingly dynamic yea yea 1959 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:18,840 Speaker 5: Rodriguez Petrie? 1960 01:30:18,880 --> 01:30:19,360 Speaker 6: Who do you love? 1961 01:30:19,600 --> 01:30:21,160 Speaker 2: I mean, I love this fight. I love the match 1962 01:30:21,200 --> 01:30:25,200 Speaker 2: making too, because it's lets piple know, like, listen, welcome 1963 01:30:25,240 --> 01:30:27,240 Speaker 2: to the fucking show. We got you a guy here 1964 01:30:27,280 --> 01:30:29,360 Speaker 2: who's who's been right there. Yeah he's on a two 1965 01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:32,720 Speaker 2: fight skid, but you're here now and yeah years is 1966 01:30:32,840 --> 01:30:35,639 Speaker 2: so dynamic with his kicks, with everything. But the problem 1967 01:30:35,680 --> 01:30:38,559 Speaker 2: I see in this fight before yeah year is the grappling. 1968 01:30:38,640 --> 01:30:40,920 Speaker 2: A lot of people don't realize that Partricia Pitbull, he's 1969 01:30:40,920 --> 01:30:42,840 Speaker 2: low to the ground, he's short for the vision really 1970 01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:45,720 Speaker 2: covers dis as well on the feet, kind of like Alexandervoknoxki. 1971 01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:47,400 Speaker 2: He's only five to six, but he fights a lot 1972 01:30:47,439 --> 01:30:49,920 Speaker 2: longer than he is. Pitple does that really well. He's 1973 01:30:49,960 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 2: also fought a guy like agent. Mckeane's about the same 1974 01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:54,439 Speaker 2: height Agile year. Not a dynamic, but the same height. 1975 01:30:54,479 --> 01:30:56,120 Speaker 2: And he's done well on the feet. But I think 1976 01:30:56,160 --> 01:30:58,280 Speaker 2: the wrestling is gonna come into player. I think Pipple 1977 01:30:58,320 --> 01:31:00,880 Speaker 2: on top you know, yeah, you guys, has thrown up 1978 01:31:00,880 --> 01:31:03,040 Speaker 2: some submissions. He got Brian or Taga, which I know 1979 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:05,200 Speaker 2: is an injury, but he calls that injury. He is 1980 01:31:05,280 --> 01:31:07,400 Speaker 2: crafty off to the bottom, you know, he submitted Josh Edmon. 1981 01:31:07,600 --> 01:31:09,439 Speaker 2: I just think Pitpbull's at a different level when it 1982 01:31:09,520 --> 01:31:12,120 Speaker 2: comes to the ground. I think that's a one leg 1983 01:31:12,160 --> 01:31:14,080 Speaker 2: of his game that a lot of people don't realize. 1984 01:31:14,840 --> 01:31:16,559 Speaker 2: I think on the feet, I think he gets tuned 1985 01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:18,840 Speaker 2: up on the feet. I think Geyro Ririguez has his 1986 01:31:18,880 --> 01:31:20,479 Speaker 2: way with him. He got knocked out a few fights 1987 01:31:20,479 --> 01:31:23,360 Speaker 2: ago in Japan. The chin has been tested before. 1988 01:31:23,520 --> 01:31:23,760 Speaker 6: He is. 1989 01:31:24,000 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 2: He's not getting younger. I say, play on the feet 1990 01:31:26,160 --> 01:31:28,320 Speaker 2: a little bit, utilize your leg kicks, get the fight 1991 01:31:28,360 --> 01:31:31,200 Speaker 2: to the ground. And I like Pitbull here by decision. 1992 01:31:31,240 --> 01:31:33,679 Speaker 2: I love the underdog money as well. I'm gonna play 1993 01:31:33,680 --> 01:31:35,200 Speaker 2: I'm gonna play him over and I'm gonna play him by 1994 01:31:35,200 --> 01:31:37,680 Speaker 2: decision too. Give me, give me pit Bull making a 1995 01:31:37,760 --> 01:31:38,479 Speaker 2: nice little debut. 1996 01:31:38,680 --> 01:31:41,200 Speaker 5: Bab locked in and prepared on a Monday. We appreciate 1997 01:31:41,200 --> 01:31:44,280 Speaker 5: the early week handicap as usual. Can't flow yeall here 1998 01:31:44,360 --> 01:31:48,120 Speaker 5: Rodriguez won the UFC's Interim Featherweight Championship February twelfth, twenty 1999 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:52,320 Speaker 5: twenty three. Brian mentioned the two straight losses since hasn't 2000 01:31:52,320 --> 01:31:55,919 Speaker 5: fought more than a year fought Brian or Tega. Pitbull 2001 01:31:55,960 --> 01:31:58,799 Speaker 5: turned pro in two thousand and four. We were covering 2002 01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,400 Speaker 5: him regularly. Can flow espn mm A live last Friday, 2003 01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:06,360 Speaker 5: successful title defense against Jeremy Kennedy March of twenty twenty 2004 01:32:06,360 --> 01:32:07,280 Speaker 5: four Flokahead. 2005 01:32:07,640 --> 01:32:11,840 Speaker 7: These last four fights on the main cart are readonculous. 2006 01:32:12,160 --> 01:32:15,000 Speaker 7: So this is first of all, I want to correct 2007 01:32:15,000 --> 01:32:17,479 Speaker 7: your pronunciation. You guys are saying pit Bull, it's a 2008 01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:22,080 Speaker 7: beat you bull, beat you bull, He's brazillion. I just 2009 01:32:22,080 --> 01:32:24,800 Speaker 7: want to make sure John gets that right on the broadcast. 2010 01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:26,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, so yeah, hear. 2011 01:32:26,640 --> 01:32:26,840 Speaker 3: You know. 2012 01:32:27,360 --> 01:32:29,559 Speaker 7: It's tricky because you never know kind of what he's 2013 01:32:29,560 --> 01:32:32,559 Speaker 7: been working on. He kind of moves in silence, you know, 2014 01:32:33,400 --> 01:32:36,720 Speaker 7: And I would like to think that he's improving on 2015 01:32:36,800 --> 01:32:40,920 Speaker 7: his grappling game, particularly his wrestling and of course his 2016 01:32:41,000 --> 01:32:42,800 Speaker 7: guard game. I think he's gonna need that. I think 2017 01:32:42,800 --> 01:32:46,280 Speaker 7: Brian is spot on with that, and I think we're 2018 01:32:46,320 --> 01:32:48,960 Speaker 7: going to see that. The other thing is going in 2019 01:32:49,000 --> 01:32:52,600 Speaker 7: there for the first time against someone like Yayir Rodriguez 2020 01:32:53,920 --> 01:32:55,000 Speaker 7: adjusting to that. 2021 01:32:55,200 --> 01:32:57,600 Speaker 6: Adjusting to that level of speed is not going to 2022 01:32:57,640 --> 01:32:59,600 Speaker 6: be easy for someone like Patricio. 2023 01:32:59,160 --> 01:33:02,240 Speaker 7: Pitbull, as much as experience as he has, I think 2024 01:33:02,280 --> 01:33:04,639 Speaker 7: seeing that level of speed is just going to be different. 2025 01:33:04,760 --> 01:33:08,439 Speaker 7: And yah hear can bring that chaos and that speed 2026 01:33:09,800 --> 01:33:12,639 Speaker 7: and that level of angles and all that stuff. It's 2027 01:33:12,680 --> 01:33:15,479 Speaker 7: hard to get a read on him early. So for Pitbull, 2028 01:33:15,560 --> 01:33:17,800 Speaker 7: he's got to get off to a good start. And 2029 01:33:17,880 --> 01:33:19,920 Speaker 7: you never know how someone's gonna react once they get 2030 01:33:19,960 --> 01:33:22,280 Speaker 7: into the UFC. I know he's been fighting at you know, 2031 01:33:22,560 --> 01:33:25,760 Speaker 7: a ton of big fights. I don't necessarily, you know, 2032 01:33:26,160 --> 01:33:29,160 Speaker 7: see him caving to the pressure here, but it is 2033 01:33:29,240 --> 01:33:34,320 Speaker 7: different and I think ya Year's dynamic game is going 2034 01:33:34,400 --> 01:33:37,840 Speaker 7: to pose some problems for him. But no question Brian 2035 01:33:37,920 --> 01:33:42,080 Speaker 7: that I think the easiest path to victory for patch 2036 01:33:42,120 --> 01:33:45,639 Speaker 7: you Bull is to uh work those takedowns and utilize 2037 01:33:45,680 --> 01:33:48,160 Speaker 7: his ground game. He's an effective striker as well, but 2038 01:33:48,320 --> 01:33:51,240 Speaker 7: that's why that's where Yair is going to shine, and 2039 01:33:51,880 --> 01:33:54,160 Speaker 7: I hope that he's been working on his wrestling game. 2040 01:33:54,200 --> 01:33:56,479 Speaker 7: If he hasn't, then you know, I like Pitbull here, 2041 01:33:56,520 --> 01:33:59,559 Speaker 7: but give me ya year Rodriguez. 2042 01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:00,280 Speaker 6: And he has been non stop. 2043 01:34:00,360 --> 01:34:02,600 Speaker 5: I don't know if it's a Russian or an Iranian 2044 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:04,960 Speaker 5: wrestling coach that they have there in Chicago, but he's 2045 01:34:04,960 --> 01:34:07,960 Speaker 5: been completely all in, locked in in Chicago with Nacho 2046 01:34:08,000 --> 01:34:12,000 Speaker 5: bamandez In Balal. So we'll see, right, Sometimes you can 2047 01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:14,880 Speaker 5: literally do nothing but wrestle, but you can't close a 2048 01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:18,280 Speaker 5: lifelong gap. And then Patricio Pitbull sort of just sort 2049 01:34:18,280 --> 01:34:21,000 Speaker 5: of imposes his will. Can't wait to see it play out, 2050 01:34:21,240 --> 01:34:23,559 Speaker 5: all right, we stay in the featherweight division. Jean Lord 2051 01:34:23,600 --> 01:34:26,639 Speaker 5: Silva minus three twenty five, Bryce Mitchell plus two sixty 2052 01:34:26,720 --> 01:34:29,479 Speaker 5: Bry Silva twenty eight four and zero in the UFC 2053 01:34:29,960 --> 01:34:32,679 Speaker 5: with four knockouts dating to the debut January of twenty 2054 01:34:32,720 --> 01:34:33,160 Speaker 5: twenty four. 2055 01:34:33,280 --> 01:34:34,960 Speaker 6: Fifteen to two is a pro. He's won twelve in 2056 01:34:34,960 --> 01:34:36,080 Speaker 6: a row streak. 2057 01:34:36,120 --> 01:34:39,640 Speaker 5: Figures to get put to the test here though arkansaws 2058 01:34:39,960 --> 01:34:44,240 Speaker 5: Bryce thug Billthy Mitchell eight and two in the UFC 2059 01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:48,240 Speaker 5: after a strong effort in finishing Crown and Gracie last December, Petrie, 2060 01:34:48,520 --> 01:34:50,160 Speaker 5: what do you make of this one? John Silva the 2061 01:34:50,160 --> 01:34:51,679 Speaker 5: favorite or Bryce Mitchell the dog? 2062 01:34:52,200 --> 01:34:53,559 Speaker 2: I love that they put this fight together. 2063 01:34:53,600 --> 01:34:53,760 Speaker 6: You know. 2064 01:34:53,800 --> 01:34:56,000 Speaker 2: Bryce Mitchell got in some hot water with some bullshit 2065 01:34:56,040 --> 01:34:57,880 Speaker 2: that he said a while ago, and they're like, hey, 2066 01:34:57,880 --> 01:35:00,040 Speaker 2: this is your punishment. You gotta fight Jean Silva. And 2067 01:35:00,080 --> 01:35:03,760 Speaker 2: John Silva is a fucking racking ball like this dude, 2068 01:35:03,800 --> 01:35:06,240 Speaker 2: don't give a fuck. Right, he fights and he has 2069 01:35:06,280 --> 01:35:08,519 Speaker 2: all his emotions come out all at once. He's smiling, 2070 01:35:08,520 --> 01:35:11,559 Speaker 2: he's laughing, he's cryings whatever. They're both crazy. Let's not 2071 01:35:11,600 --> 01:35:14,080 Speaker 2: make no state make it about it. Bryce Mitchell's probably 2072 01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:16,400 Speaker 2: gonna bring a Bible somewhere with him. This is gonna 2073 01:35:16,400 --> 01:35:18,160 Speaker 2: he's gonna put in the octagon again or maybe at 2074 01:35:18,200 --> 01:35:20,640 Speaker 2: the press conference. Things are gonna get very interested in 2075 01:35:20,640 --> 01:35:23,320 Speaker 2: this week. With that being said, at your Classic Striker 2076 01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:26,120 Speaker 2: for a Scrappler, Bryce Mitchell desperately needs to get this 2077 01:35:26,160 --> 01:35:29,040 Speaker 2: fight to the ground, I think, and John Silva needs 2078 01:35:29,040 --> 01:35:31,240 Speaker 2: to keep this fight standing. He's patient on the feet, 2079 01:35:31,479 --> 01:35:34,559 Speaker 2: he's powerful with everything he does, even his little lake kicks. 2080 01:35:34,800 --> 01:35:37,120 Speaker 2: It's not it's not like als Bada don't get me wrong, 2081 01:35:37,160 --> 01:35:39,360 Speaker 2: but does little lay kicks really affect guys when he 2082 01:35:39,360 --> 01:35:42,439 Speaker 2: strikes him and he's even though he's absolutely out of 2083 01:35:42,439 --> 01:35:45,160 Speaker 2: his mind crazy, which I love. He's very patient when 2084 01:35:45,160 --> 01:35:47,280 Speaker 2: he strikes. He picks his shots well and he knows 2085 01:35:47,280 --> 01:35:49,960 Speaker 2: he has this unforgiving power. There's only gonna take one, 2086 01:35:50,000 --> 01:35:52,720 Speaker 2: So why rush? Why do anything? George Dan took him 2087 01:35:52,760 --> 01:35:54,720 Speaker 2: down three times. You know he got George Dan and 2088 01:35:54,840 --> 01:35:56,320 Speaker 2: knocked him out, but took him own three times. So 2089 01:35:57,280 --> 01:36:00,000 Speaker 2: kim Bryce Mitchell do that. Maybe Bryce Mitchell's a very 2090 01:36:00,600 --> 01:36:02,360 Speaker 2: a better I would say, a better takedown. Artists and 2091 01:36:02,439 --> 01:36:04,559 Speaker 2: Charles are dead. But I don't see it happening. I 2092 01:36:04,560 --> 01:36:08,400 Speaker 2: think John Silva, man, I think this dude is powerful everywhere, 2093 01:36:08,439 --> 01:36:11,519 Speaker 2: even strong. I think Bryce Mitchell when he fought Illiot Topora. 2094 01:36:11,640 --> 01:36:13,400 Speaker 2: I saw that live, he got tossed around. I know 2095 01:36:13,479 --> 01:36:15,840 Speaker 2: he's sick in that fight. I see the same happening. 2096 01:36:15,880 --> 01:36:18,080 Speaker 2: I don't see success for him here. I think they're 2097 01:36:18,080 --> 01:36:20,280 Speaker 2: gonna make him. John Silva's gonna make him stand up. 2098 01:36:20,560 --> 01:36:23,120 Speaker 2: And I see a big knockout coming for John Silva here. 2099 01:36:23,160 --> 01:36:24,680 Speaker 2: I mean I could I literally if you gave me 2100 01:36:24,760 --> 01:36:27,479 Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars this weekend, John for the for for 2101 01:36:27,560 --> 01:36:29,240 Speaker 2: a mint ofm an challenge. I could have maybe put 2102 01:36:29,280 --> 01:36:31,880 Speaker 2: all of it on John Silva ten grand. That's how 2103 01:36:31,920 --> 01:36:34,240 Speaker 2: confident I am. This is absolute more locked. I hate 2104 01:36:34,280 --> 01:36:36,800 Speaker 2: giving out such a broad pick at minus three twenty five, 2105 01:36:36,800 --> 01:36:39,479 Speaker 2: He's probably gonna grow, But man, I just don't see 2106 01:36:39,479 --> 01:36:41,680 Speaker 2: any path of victory for Bryce Mitchell. No dispector by 2107 01:36:41,720 --> 01:36:43,760 Speaker 2: s Mitchell, but I think John Silva has all the 2108 01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:45,320 Speaker 2: bases covered here. I like him big. 2109 01:36:45,439 --> 01:36:48,080 Speaker 6: It's actually going the other way right now. John Silva minus. 2110 01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:52,240 Speaker 5: Two seventy eighty and Bryce Mitchell is plus two twenty five. 2111 01:36:52,320 --> 01:36:56,759 Speaker 5: So the plus two sixty Bryce Mitchell, she go can't flow. 2112 01:36:57,600 --> 01:36:59,080 Speaker 5: Jean Silva, Bryce Mitchell, who do you have? 2113 01:37:00,680 --> 01:37:00,920 Speaker 3: Yeah? 2114 01:37:00,960 --> 01:37:04,720 Speaker 7: You know, I don't think this is a fight that 2115 01:37:04,880 --> 01:37:08,880 Speaker 7: was made. I think they're feeding Jean Silva Bryce Mitchell. 2116 01:37:08,920 --> 01:37:10,880 Speaker 7: That's what I think is going on here. And I 2117 01:37:11,320 --> 01:37:16,120 Speaker 7: think that Jean Silva he gonna eat. And the way 2118 01:37:16,120 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 7: that they match up, Jean just he's such a he's 2119 01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:25,519 Speaker 7: such a clever striker, he's such a smart fighter. And 2120 01:37:25,640 --> 01:37:27,719 Speaker 7: you know, if there's one guy I could see actually 2121 01:37:27,720 --> 01:37:29,880 Speaker 7: maybe holding the belt and keeping it for a while. 2122 01:37:30,160 --> 01:37:31,599 Speaker 7: John Silva might be that guy. 2123 01:37:31,720 --> 01:37:32,040 Speaker 6: I think. 2124 01:37:32,040 --> 01:37:34,960 Speaker 7: I'm that kind of impressed when I watch him fight. 2125 01:37:35,560 --> 01:37:39,360 Speaker 7: Bryce Mitchell. I think is fighting really really well right now. 2126 01:37:39,439 --> 01:37:42,960 Speaker 7: But he does have this tendency of throwing a punch, 2127 01:37:43,080 --> 01:37:46,240 Speaker 7: dropping his hands, throwing a punch dropping his hands, and 2128 01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:48,000 Speaker 7: and kind of watching his work a little bit, and 2129 01:37:48,080 --> 01:37:49,720 Speaker 7: you do not want to do that against someone like 2130 01:37:49,800 --> 01:37:52,880 Speaker 7: John Silva. If he's able to hit some takedowns, listen, 2131 01:37:53,000 --> 01:37:55,559 Speaker 7: I think that Bryce Mitchell can win this fight on 2132 01:37:55,600 --> 01:37:57,760 Speaker 7: the ground. I think he I think his submission game 2133 01:37:57,840 --> 01:37:59,200 Speaker 7: is probably going to be better. 2134 01:37:59,000 --> 01:37:59,759 Speaker 6: Than John Silva. 2135 01:38:00,040 --> 01:38:02,400 Speaker 7: I'm still waiting to see more ground game from a 2136 01:38:02,439 --> 01:38:05,200 Speaker 7: lot of these fight nerds from Brazil. I think they're 2137 01:38:05,200 --> 01:38:06,680 Speaker 7: a fantastic team, but I want to see more of 2138 01:38:06,680 --> 01:38:09,280 Speaker 7: their ground game. But they're not letting people take them down. 2139 01:38:09,320 --> 01:38:12,719 Speaker 7: That's the problem. But gimme Jean Selby here. I'm with Brian. 2140 01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:16,240 Speaker 7: I think he's a big favorite, and give me that 2141 01:38:16,360 --> 01:38:18,080 Speaker 7: minus two seventy eight boys. 2142 01:38:18,400 --> 01:38:19,439 Speaker 6: Yeah, we'll see what happens. 2143 01:38:19,479 --> 01:38:21,639 Speaker 5: You know, part of me really hopes that Bryce competes 2144 01:38:21,680 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 5: well because I do think that even though he might 2145 01:38:24,400 --> 01:38:26,240 Speaker 5: be equipped to handle some of the weight of the 2146 01:38:26,240 --> 01:38:28,080 Speaker 5: world on his shoulders. There's a whole lot of it, 2147 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:29,800 Speaker 5: and I just think he's going to be walking into 2148 01:38:29,840 --> 01:38:33,760 Speaker 5: a lot of unique navigations during this fight week all right, 2149 01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:37,080 Speaker 5: lightweight comb made event scheduled for five rounds. If need be, 2150 01:38:37,280 --> 01:38:39,920 Speaker 5: Patty Pimblet minus one sixty two Michael Chandler plus one 2151 01:38:40,000 --> 01:38:43,439 Speaker 5: thirty six kem full will lead with you here on 2152 01:38:43,479 --> 01:38:46,080 Speaker 5: the co main event. Patty Pimblet turned thirty back in January, 2153 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:49,000 Speaker 5: really coming into his own, if not as fighting prime 2154 01:38:49,320 --> 01:38:52,160 Speaker 5: six to zero in the UFC Triangled King Green that 2155 01:38:52,280 --> 01:38:54,559 Speaker 5: was last July, and now he draws these soon to 2156 01:38:54,560 --> 01:38:56,960 Speaker 5: be thirty nine year old Michael Chandler who's lost four 2157 01:38:57,000 --> 01:38:59,559 Speaker 5: of five to fall to two and four in the UFC. 2158 01:38:59,720 --> 01:39:03,000 Speaker 5: That do not sit well with Iron Michael Chandler. We'll 2159 01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:04,920 Speaker 5: see if he can get on track this weekend. Ken 2160 01:39:04,960 --> 01:39:07,040 Speaker 5: he take it away. 2161 01:39:07,560 --> 01:39:09,320 Speaker 7: You can get a ton of experience in the UFC, 2162 01:39:09,360 --> 01:39:12,880 Speaker 7: and you can certainly go through that maturation process and 2163 01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:16,599 Speaker 7: get better and learn from that. But I think that 2164 01:39:17,320 --> 01:39:19,280 Speaker 7: if you really want to get mature, you have a kid, 2165 01:39:19,360 --> 01:39:23,720 Speaker 7: and Patty Pimblet has twins right now, so I think 2166 01:39:23,720 --> 01:39:27,679 Speaker 7: that's a great way to get that maturity in that motivation, 2167 01:39:27,880 --> 01:39:30,519 Speaker 7: by the way, and I think I'm seeing that out 2168 01:39:30,520 --> 01:39:33,120 Speaker 7: of Patty Pimblet the way that he's training. 2169 01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:34,240 Speaker 6: You could see it in his body. 2170 01:39:34,280 --> 01:39:38,160 Speaker 7: He just looks in phenomenal shape for each and every 2171 01:39:38,200 --> 01:39:41,120 Speaker 7: fight now last few years, and I think that was 2172 01:39:41,120 --> 01:39:41,840 Speaker 7: a big change. 2173 01:39:42,280 --> 01:39:43,080 Speaker 6: I think that. 2174 01:39:44,479 --> 01:39:49,599 Speaker 7: You know, right now, he's learning from past experiences. He's 2175 01:39:49,640 --> 01:39:52,720 Speaker 7: getting better, he's getting more comfortable, he's learning how to 2176 01:39:52,760 --> 01:39:55,320 Speaker 7: put it all together. I think he's made huge improvements 2177 01:39:55,800 --> 01:40:00,639 Speaker 7: with his takedown game offensively, but he's bill does show 2178 01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:04,120 Speaker 7: vulnerabilities on the feet in getting hit, and Michael Chandler 2179 01:40:04,439 --> 01:40:08,679 Speaker 7: he's got some serious power. The one thing about Mike, 2180 01:40:08,760 --> 01:40:12,280 Speaker 7: you know, he's extremely fast, but he does telegraph a 2181 01:40:12,320 --> 01:40:14,679 Speaker 7: lot of what he's throwing, so he's got to hide 2182 01:40:14,720 --> 01:40:19,320 Speaker 7: those punches behind quality feints and that will kind of 2183 01:40:19,360 --> 01:40:23,639 Speaker 7: deteriorate for Chandler as the fight moves on. So early on, 2184 01:40:24,200 --> 01:40:26,479 Speaker 7: watch for Chandler to get up in the face of 2185 01:40:26,520 --> 01:40:29,439 Speaker 7: Patty Pimblet and laying those land those huge shots. That's 2186 01:40:29,479 --> 01:40:31,960 Speaker 7: where I think Michael Chandler has the best chance of 2187 01:40:32,000 --> 01:40:35,519 Speaker 7: winning this fight is early in this fight. Now, Patty 2188 01:40:35,920 --> 01:40:39,639 Speaker 7: Pimblet has shown to have an amazing chin. He's extremely durable, 2189 01:40:40,520 --> 01:40:43,599 Speaker 7: but when Chandler gets you hurt, you really gotta be careful. 2190 01:40:44,400 --> 01:40:46,920 Speaker 7: My big problem with with with this fight, though, and 2191 01:40:47,240 --> 01:40:50,080 Speaker 7: maybe being all in on Chandler, is that it's really 2192 01:40:50,160 --> 01:40:55,200 Speaker 7: hard to bet on a guy that because he has 2193 01:40:55,280 --> 01:40:59,679 Speaker 7: so much confidence in his game and because his willingness 2194 01:40:59,720 --> 01:41:03,439 Speaker 7: to end entertain fighters is greater than his willingness to 2195 01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:06,720 Speaker 7: want to win, he doesn't always make the best decisions 2196 01:41:06,920 --> 01:41:08,960 Speaker 7: and it's just. 2197 01:41:08,960 --> 01:41:10,720 Speaker 6: Hard to rely on a guy like that. 2198 01:41:12,080 --> 01:41:16,120 Speaker 7: And Chandler could definitely win this fight by knockout, but 2199 01:41:16,280 --> 01:41:19,760 Speaker 7: Patty Pimblet is the more consistent performer here, and I 2200 01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:22,760 Speaker 7: think if this fight goes to the ground, I think 2201 01:41:22,800 --> 01:41:25,960 Speaker 7: Pimblet has a great shot of winning it. I think 2202 01:41:26,000 --> 01:41:28,600 Speaker 7: he may struggle a little bit with some of the takedowns, 2203 01:41:29,120 --> 01:41:31,800 Speaker 7: but if he can catch a leg or capitalize on 2204 01:41:31,840 --> 01:41:35,920 Speaker 7: a slip or get Chandler tired, I think Pimblet wins 2205 01:41:35,920 --> 01:41:39,680 Speaker 7: this fight. But yeah, so give me the man from Liverpool, Patty. 2206 01:41:39,439 --> 01:41:44,240 Speaker 5: Pemblet Patrick Mark Pimblet minus one sixty two in and 2207 01:41:44,280 --> 01:41:47,439 Speaker 5: around there on Draftking Sports Book. Bri If Chandler loses 2208 01:41:47,479 --> 01:41:50,240 Speaker 5: this weekend and the betting line is expectant that he will. 2209 01:41:51,200 --> 01:41:53,479 Speaker 5: He's two and five of the UFC with the UFC 2210 01:41:53,520 --> 01:41:57,400 Speaker 5: winning percentage of twenty nine percent. Do you think Chandler 2211 01:41:57,400 --> 01:41:59,040 Speaker 5: can avoid the fate this weekend? 2212 01:42:00,120 --> 01:42:02,280 Speaker 2: Well, I was so curious to who Kenny picked there. 2213 01:42:02,360 --> 01:42:03,880 Speaker 2: This is this is the one that I've been chewing 2214 01:42:03,920 --> 01:42:06,120 Speaker 2: on since it was announced all week and it's like 2215 01:42:06,160 --> 01:42:08,479 Speaker 2: an oh, it's like a fucking cheap steak in my mouth. 2216 01:42:08,520 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 2: I keep chewing on, can't get rid of it. I 2217 01:42:11,479 --> 01:42:13,400 Speaker 2: came to the inclusion today today at work is when 2218 01:42:13,439 --> 01:42:16,560 Speaker 2: I settled on who I was gonna pick. Listen. I'm 2219 01:42:16,680 --> 01:42:18,880 Speaker 2: not a guy that dislikes Patty Penman. I think he 2220 01:42:19,000 --> 01:42:21,360 Speaker 2: is great for the UFC. I'm not the hater us 2221 01:42:21,520 --> 01:42:24,639 Speaker 2: MMA fans at times were like, there's like really like dorky, 2222 01:42:24,720 --> 01:42:27,120 Speaker 2: like guys who go see a band at like some club, 2223 01:42:27,640 --> 01:42:29,760 Speaker 2: like some shithole club, and then the band makes it 2224 01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:31,599 Speaker 2: and alsodden. They don't like the band anymore because they're 2225 01:42:31,600 --> 01:42:34,840 Speaker 2: too mainstream. Everyone loved Patty Piman like Caid's Warriors, Ah, 2226 01:42:34,880 --> 01:42:37,120 Speaker 2: Patty and the Patty he comes to UFC. All sudden's 2227 01:42:37,120 --> 01:42:39,320 Speaker 2: always trash, right It doesn't make any sense to me. 2228 01:42:39,360 --> 01:42:41,400 Speaker 2: I've always loved the guy, and I think UFC has 2229 01:42:41,439 --> 01:42:43,880 Speaker 2: done really really well with him with his progressions with 2230 01:42:43,960 --> 01:42:46,160 Speaker 2: who he should fight because of the star potential he 2231 01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:49,360 Speaker 2: is there. Kenny's dead on with his striking, his chin 2232 01:42:49,439 --> 01:42:51,679 Speaker 2: still in the air. He's getting really good with his kicks, 2233 01:42:51,680 --> 01:42:53,880 Speaker 2: and his kicks were really good to the body into 2234 01:42:53,920 --> 01:42:55,920 Speaker 2: the head. His low kicks ount against Bobby Green were 2235 01:42:56,040 --> 01:42:59,040 Speaker 2: very very good. Chandler is very susceptible low kicks. My 2236 01:42:59,080 --> 01:43:01,599 Speaker 2: only complain about Patty right now is Kenny mention it. 2237 01:43:01,680 --> 01:43:03,920 Speaker 2: Like not to complain, but Kenny mentioned how big he's looking. 2238 01:43:04,120 --> 01:43:06,240 Speaker 2: He's looking absolutely enormous in it for a guy that 2239 01:43:06,320 --> 01:43:09,000 Speaker 2: used to fight at forty five now full body fifty 2240 01:43:09,040 --> 01:43:11,840 Speaker 2: five or looking great. He beat the shit out of 2241 01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:14,559 Speaker 2: Tony Ferguson. I mean, go rewatch that fight. He fucked 2242 01:43:14,600 --> 01:43:18,280 Speaker 2: Tony Ferguson up and Tony so got tough that he's 2243 01:43:18,280 --> 01:43:19,960 Speaker 2: not gonna get out of there. But other than that, like, 2244 01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:22,679 Speaker 2: he looked phenomenal in that fight. And I'm worried about 2245 01:43:22,680 --> 01:43:25,640 Speaker 2: Michael Chandler in that aspect. But Michael Chandler's got that 2246 01:43:25,720 --> 01:43:28,640 Speaker 2: one thing. Two and four two and five in the 2247 01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:32,840 Speaker 2: UFC doesn't matter. He's He's gonna be musty TV every fight. 2248 01:43:32,920 --> 01:43:36,000 Speaker 2: There's a moment with this guy, every single fucking fight. 2249 01:43:36,400 --> 01:43:38,800 Speaker 2: His last five with Charles OLIVERA, I thought he looked 2250 01:43:38,800 --> 01:43:41,519 Speaker 2: pretty good. He defended the back really well. He got 2251 01:43:41,600 --> 01:43:44,160 Speaker 2: his back taking multiple times. He was doing jumps, he 2252 01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:46,360 Speaker 2: was doing slams. He didn't give a shit. He also 2253 01:43:46,360 --> 01:43:48,879 Speaker 2: wily in a really clean right hand. That Buzz Chandler 2254 01:43:49,520 --> 01:43:52,360 Speaker 2: or Buzz Oliver Ahir, excuse me if if Chandler knows 2255 01:43:52,400 --> 01:43:56,679 Speaker 2: how to poise himself, because I think he's gonna catch Patty. 2256 01:43:56,880 --> 01:43:59,120 Speaker 2: It's good to have to happen within the first two rounds. 2257 01:43:59,120 --> 01:44:00,559 Speaker 2: If he poison him up, I think he can get 2258 01:44:00,560 --> 01:44:03,120 Speaker 2: that Patty out of there. And the fact that he's 2259 01:44:03,120 --> 01:44:05,280 Speaker 2: plus money and I've already painted the board with a 2260 01:44:05,280 --> 01:44:08,080 Speaker 2: lot of dogs give me Michael Chandler. I think he's 2261 01:44:08,120 --> 01:44:11,360 Speaker 2: gonna get it done here.

But man, it's hard to the back against 2264 01:44:17,439 --> 01:44:19,080 Speaker 2: a guy like Michael Chandler who's been in there with 2265 01:44:19,080 --> 01:44:21,320 Speaker 2: the best, and his record is two and four whatever, 2266 01:44:21,320 --> 01:44:24,320 Speaker 2: But look who's lost to Oliver or twice Pourier engaged. 2267 01:44:24,320 --> 01:44:26,479 Speaker 2: He's not losing the bums, he's losing the high level 2268 01:44:26,520 --> 01:44:30,960 Speaker 2: guys and exciting signing fights.

And 2297 01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:10,559 Speaker 7: this time around, I'm seeing an angry Volkanovsky, Like his 2298 01:46:10,640 --> 01:46:12,720 Speaker 7: eyes are a little bit darker, and for a lot 2299 01:46:12,760 --> 01:46:17,760 Speaker 7: of fighters, they need that they and maybe it's not 2300 01:46:17,880 --> 01:46:21,680 Speaker 7: the hunger. Maybe it's just this willingness to want to 2301 01:46:21,760 --> 01:46:26,480 Speaker 7: win by any means necessary, and I see that in Volkanovski. 2302 01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:31,360 Speaker 7: Lopez is a hungry, hungry contender with a hell of 2303 01:46:31,400 --> 01:46:35,799 Speaker 7: a lot of skill and talent, with some some size 2304 01:46:35,840 --> 01:46:39,720 Speaker 7: that could pose some problems for Volkanovsky. But ultimately why 2305 01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:43,000 Speaker 7: I made the decision on Volkanovsky is that volk has 2306 01:46:43,040 --> 01:46:46,360 Speaker 7: fought guys like Diego Lopez, but Diego Lopez hasn't fought 2307 01:46:46,360 --> 01:46:50,080 Speaker 7: guys like Alexander Volkanovski, and for me, that was the difference. 2308 01:46:50,120 --> 01:46:52,680 Speaker 6: I have to go on what I've seen and what 2309 01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:56,320 Speaker 6: I've experienced, and for me, Volkanovsky is the favorite for 2310 01:46:56,400 --> 01:46:58,439 Speaker 6: a reason. I like the line there. 2311 01:46:59,240 --> 01:47:01,280 Speaker 7: I think Lopez, we'll be back and challenge for the 2312 01:47:01,320 --> 01:47:03,559 Speaker 7: belt and maybe a champion of the future. I'm just 2313 01:47:03,640 --> 01:47:05,479 Speaker 7: not sure his time is now. 2314 01:47:06,280 --> 01:47:07,840 Speaker 5: I think you have a great read and I actually 2315 01:47:07,880 --> 01:47:10,240 Speaker 5: got a chance to spend some time with Alexander Volkanovsky 2316 01:47:10,280 --> 01:47:12,120 Speaker 5: on the front end of this training camp. But I 2317 01:47:12,160 --> 01:47:16,160 Speaker 5: do think angry in an operative and good way could 2318 01:47:16,240 --> 01:47:20,880 Speaker 5: be a good sign for the Volkman Chokinovski not walking 2319 01:47:20,880 --> 01:47:23,320 Speaker 5: through that door. He's pissed, he's ready to go. All right, 2320 01:47:23,360 --> 01:47:25,120 Speaker 5: we'll take a main event selection. Who do you think 2321 01:47:25,200 --> 01:47:28,200 Speaker 5: leaves the three oh five Brian Petrie as the undisputed 2322 01:47:28,280 --> 01:47:29,280 Speaker 5: UFC s FEA the way champ. 2323 01:47:29,600 --> 01:47:32,400 Speaker 2: It's kind of scary because everything Kenny just said about 2324 01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:35,479 Speaker 2: the way Vulcan is carrying himself and I had the 2325 01:47:35,479 --> 01:47:38,240 Speaker 2: same fucking thing the guys in my brain. It's getting 2326 01:47:38,240 --> 01:47:42,360 Speaker 2: a little scary. I love, I respect Volkanovski so much, 2327 01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:44,759 Speaker 2: not only just because an incredible fighter with the person 2328 01:47:44,800 --> 01:47:46,680 Speaker 2: he is, and I love the honesty he has. I 2329 01:47:46,720 --> 01:47:49,880 Speaker 2: love that he's embracing and talking about Yeah, I was nerves, 2330 01:47:49,880 --> 01:47:51,400 Speaker 2: I got knocked out, Like what am I gonna do? 2331 01:47:51,680 --> 01:47:54,519 Speaker 2: I love the freshness of that. Fighters are so stubborn 2332 01:47:54,560 --> 01:47:56,519 Speaker 2: and whatever, and I'm gonna open book myself. So I 2333 01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:58,880 Speaker 2: really really respect him and I respect his skills as well. 2334 01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:01,479 Speaker 2: You look at the the Taporia fight. He did well 2335 01:48:01,560 --> 01:48:03,719 Speaker 2: the round one and then he just didn't change anything 2336 01:48:03,760 --> 01:48:06,080 Speaker 2: up and then Toorio rd and me got caught. His 2337 01:48:06,320 --> 01:48:09,040 Speaker 2: entire team from Joe Lopez to him, took that on 2338 01:48:09,080 --> 01:48:11,960 Speaker 2: the chin and said, that's on us. We fucked up. 2339 01:48:12,040 --> 01:48:14,240 Speaker 2: We need to get better. A lot of people don't 2340 01:48:14,280 --> 01:48:15,760 Speaker 2: do that when they lose, right, A lot of people 2341 01:48:15,840 --> 01:48:18,720 Speaker 2: they have some excuses there, whatever, you I love that. 2342 01:48:18,880 --> 01:48:20,840 Speaker 2: I love that with that team, and I think we're 2343 01:48:20,840 --> 01:48:23,679 Speaker 2: gonna get the best Volkanowski we have seen in a while. 2344 01:48:23,720 --> 01:48:27,200 Speaker 2: And you need it because Diego Lopez comes out like 2345 01:48:27,280 --> 01:48:30,560 Speaker 2: a bat out of hell, super aggressive, very big for 2346 01:48:30,640 --> 01:48:33,280 Speaker 2: the division as well, and is strong and can light 2347 01:48:33,360 --> 01:48:35,800 Speaker 2: you up on the feet early. If you're a betting man, 2348 01:48:35,840 --> 01:48:37,880 Speaker 2: which I'm assuming if you're watching this segment you are. 2349 01:48:38,280 --> 01:48:41,679 Speaker 2: I would take Diego Lopez withinside one's one and two. 2350 01:48:42,040 --> 01:48:43,639 Speaker 2: I think it gets outside of there. I think it's 2351 01:48:43,640 --> 01:48:46,200 Speaker 2: all Volkanowski, and I think it gets outside of there. 2352 01:48:46,360 --> 01:48:48,439 Speaker 2: I think Volkanowski takes us to deep waters, and I 2353 01:48:48,479 --> 01:48:50,680 Speaker 2: think he drowns him. You look at Diego Lopez when 2354 01:48:50,720 --> 01:48:52,760 Speaker 2: he fought Danny get Yes, it was on like two 2355 01:48:52,760 --> 01:48:55,960 Speaker 2: hours notice, but he dropped that third round. We've seen 2356 01:48:56,040 --> 01:48:58,920 Speaker 2: him smoke guys within one and two, usually round one, 2357 01:48:59,200 --> 01:49:01,320 Speaker 2: but when it gets extend it and he's never been 2358 01:49:01,360 --> 01:49:04,160 Speaker 2: five rounds UFC. When he gets extended, that's when their 2359 01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:06,799 Speaker 2: questions are gonna start coming up. I think Diego Lopez 2360 01:49:06,840 --> 01:49:09,120 Speaker 2: is a phenomenal fighter. He's with a phenomenal camp. He 2361 01:49:09,200 --> 01:49:11,000 Speaker 2: will fight for the title, maybe even hold the title 2362 01:49:11,040 --> 01:49:14,400 Speaker 2: one day, just not this Saturday.
