Speaker 6: heard of Emma anything. This c ufc Yeah, I would

39
00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,360
Speaker 6: bite that for like he had like six months a

40
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 6: give him for his birthday. You know, I got Kenny

Speaker 4: That was great.

43
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 5: So if you're listening and not watching, was that a

44
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 5: Kenny Florian action figures?

45
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 2: That was.

46
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 4: Shock.

47
00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 5: We'll have to talk off the air about how much

48
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 5: you might be willing to sell that to me for.

49
00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:23,880
Speaker 5: But in the conversation for another day. Hey, so I

50
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 5: heard you talking to our producer backstage before the start

51
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 5: of the show about Christian Leroy Duncan, who makes his

52
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,160
Speaker 5: UFC debut this weekend, so might as well pick your

53
00:02:34,160 --> 00:02:36,520
Speaker 5: brain on him. Former Cage Warriors champion, a lot of

54
00:02:36,520 --> 00:02:38,400
Speaker 5: potential your thoughts on him coming into the big show

55
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:38,880
Speaker 5: this weekend.

56
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 6: My brother I was doing a podcast with someone recently,

57
00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 6: you know, a fellow person who kind of covers the UK,

58
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,959
Speaker 6: Irish European scene, and I kind of asked the question,

59
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 6: if you had to pick one person from the whole

60
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 6: scene who you think would be a future UFC champion,

61
00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 6: who would it be? And we both picked Christian, right, Duncan.

62
00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 6: That's I think how good he is. He's he hasn't

63
00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:58,440
Speaker 6: had many fights. I think he's only what eight nine

64
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 6: fights into his crib, but he's had a lot of

65
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 6: experience as an amateur. And you know, Indian is the

66
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,679
Speaker 6: matchmaker over in Cage where he's a brilliant mind and

67
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 6: a brilliant guy doing it, and he's been giving him

68
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 6: tougher tests. After a tougher test, some guys, you know,

69
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 6: you have to go and you have to watch a

70
00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,480
Speaker 6: lot of fights over in pauland and rush it to

71
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 6: see how good they are. You watch this fight. Oh,

72
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:15,960
Speaker 6: this is going to be a tough test for Christiani

73
00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 6: Roy Duncan and then he swallows him up and around.

74
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:20,480
Speaker 6: That's the type of fighter he is. He's a phenom

75
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 6: really good athletically good underground go to restling, but brilliant striking.

76
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 6: And with the middleweight division the way it is at

77
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 6: the moment, I think he can climb quickly. And you

78
00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:31,760
Speaker 6: see by the matchmaking because USC matchmakers now as well

79
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,519
Speaker 6: he's fighting, He's got the tour of it. Who's you know,

80
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 6: a good fighter who knockout powers, had a lot of

81
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 6: UFC fights, so he's not getting a gimme straight away

82
00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:38,240
Speaker 6: at all.

83
00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 4: But I think he'll be well able for you.

84
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,680
Speaker 6: Know, you never know what the UFC geners and all that,

85
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:45,080
Speaker 6: so give me a little bit of a fallback here.

86
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 6: But I think he has a really really really high

87
00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:51,640
Speaker 6: top end ceiling and I'm really looking forward to seeing

88
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 6: that where he can go.

89
00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:53,680
Speaker 4: It's an exciting watching him.

90
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 5: I love it all right. So when we have you

91
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 5: on and we got to make it a monthly thing,

92
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 5: I always feel like I'm chasing the clock. Any number

93
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 5: of different directions in which we can go, but I

94
00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 5: want to start with Morob Dwallish Willie if I could,

95
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 5: because we're only a few days removed from his main event,

96
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 5: went over pyotr Yan, and I'm hearing guys like Kenny

97
00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 5: Florian and Ray Longo and Matt Sarah suggest that they've

98
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 5: never seen anything quite like this guy. You've got a

99
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 5: very good historical framework for this sport, for the bantamweight division.

100
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 5: Are we getting a little bit too superlative? I'm not

101
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 5: sure that anybody has weaponized pressure quite as well as

102
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 5: he had against against elite competition. Your thoughts on Morob

103
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:33,599
Speaker 5: over pyotr Yan last weekend?

104
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 6: See I think the difference between Morob and a lot

105
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 6: of other people from years gone by who would I

106
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,880
Speaker 6: suppose be looked at as very strong, dominating rapplers like

107
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 6: John Fitch and Yushinokami and even gsp to a certainness,

108
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,800
Speaker 6: and others it felt always like they prayed on the

109
00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 6: weakness of their opponents. So John Fitch was a better

110
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,000
Speaker 6: wrestleran almost everyone he thought was ever taken down and

111
00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,719
Speaker 6: kind of, you know, to destroy lots of guys that way.

112
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 6: We're in here and for everyone like Perry and included,

113
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 6: is massively well rounded, so to be able to do

114
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 6: that to fighters who don't have that gaping weakness in

115
00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 6: their game is just it's just another level. It's it's grand,

116
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,360
Speaker 6: Like anyone could come out and wrestle me and take

117
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 6: me down and destroy me.

118
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 4: But to do it to Kenny Flaurier, to do it.

119
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 6: The betteriana to do it to anyone in the UFC

120
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 6: at a high level is a different start of thing.

121
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 6: And for a RAB, it's it's special because like I

122
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,080
Speaker 6: looked at the RAB and you know, we're obviously the

123
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,360
Speaker 6: Reilan girls involved here and everything, and they're a big

124
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:32,360
Speaker 6: rail long fans and I'm bringing RAB fans and everything

125
00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 6: like that. But I wasn't convinced, Honestly, I wasn't convinced

126
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 6: that that style could get to a high level. That's

127
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 6: the style because he's so good, it could always work

128
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 6: up until a certain level. But I was kind of thinking, like,

129
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 6: there's so many mistakedowns, there's so much pressure put on.

130
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,200
Speaker 6: Can he keep this going over five rounds? And it

131
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,440
Speaker 6: actually got better over five rounds, And it's a way,

132
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 6: you know, we talk about you know, obviously I always

133
00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:58,560
Speaker 6: come on and talk about judging over three rounds, there's issue,

134
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,240
Speaker 6: there's an issue with that style because let's say, you know,

135
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,800
Speaker 6: Cheetah error the way he's won a couple of rounds recently,

136
00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,320
Speaker 6: he's lost the last the last big shot, you lose

137
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 6: the round that can happen to Merab because Morab w

138
00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 6: one five rounds of the weekend, not one of them

139
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 6: is close to a ten A. We weren't even talking

140
00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:15,440
Speaker 6: about tennets, you know, So one big shot, big knockdown

141
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 6: can happen you lose around For that happened twice in

142
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,279
Speaker 6: a three round fight, is you know, it's very possible

143
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,680
Speaker 6: for that happened three times in a five round fight

144
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 6: or more is more unlikely, especially with the way you

145
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 6: get to the you know, the latter half of the

146
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,040
Speaker 6: second round into the tour round and you can no

147
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,960
Speaker 6: longer breathe, never mind punch him.

148
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 4: In the face. You know. So his style works so

149
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:36,440
Speaker 4: much better.

150
00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 6: And the one thing is that I kind of put

151
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:39,800
Speaker 6: it out there and people are taken as a negative

152
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 6: and it wasn't like I think he broke the record,

153
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 6: but I'm pretty sure he did. For the most missed

154
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 6: takedowns in UFC history, he had to have. But that's

155
00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:52,000
Speaker 6: in a three round fight. I think that's a negative

156
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,240
Speaker 6: in some ways, but in a five round fight it's

157
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,120
Speaker 6: a positive because when he misses those takenounds, like some

158
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 6: of them are giving u s takedowns. And he wasn't

159
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 6: even trying to take him down. He was just and

160
00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:02,320
Speaker 6: push him into the de cage, pushing me in against

161
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 6: the clinch. And you saw Longo got very very easy instructions. Takedown, strike, takedown,

162
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:10,240
Speaker 6: you've threat things to do, and though the two of

163
00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:11,840
Speaker 6: them are the same, you know, and he just.

164
00:07:11,840 --> 00:07:15,800
Speaker 4: Did that for twenty five minutes, non stop.

165
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 6: And if you can do that for twenty five minutes

166
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 6: non stop against the high level of guy like that

167
00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 6: and just shut down their complete game, it makes you

168
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 6: the most well rounded fighter in the world because you

169
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:29,160
Speaker 6: can shut down every single part of another guy's game.

170
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 6: And to do that to a guy who has everyone.

171
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,800
Speaker 6: I assume we've all gone back and watched that Maga

172
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 6: med Mega Meta fight at this stage, the second one

173
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 6: where for twenty five minutes, Yean just stop every single takedown.

174
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,520
Speaker 6: He did it for most of this fight, especially early

175
00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 6: in the fight, and to still be able to beat

176
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:45,600
Speaker 6: him and end up, you know, kind of destroying him

177
00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 6: towards the end. It was phenomenal. So it's it's it's

178
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 6: very different from the old school grappers we had who

179
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 6: were dominating guys who had issues. He's dominating the guy

180
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 6: who has Okay, everyone has issues, but not the type

181
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,960
Speaker 6: of gaping holes of people in the past had shot.

182
00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 2: I want to rewind a little bit because we haven't

183
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 2: talked to you since the last pay per view. What

184
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:08,560
Speaker 2: do you think of John Jones's performance and where does

185
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 2: he sit in the goat talk for you?

186
00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 6: Oh God, I got into this the other day and

187
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 6: I wished immediately I hadn't got into it. I look,

188
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 6: in my opinion, there's there's four people in the conversation.

189
00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 6: One of them is up behind me there, Demitri Johanson,

190
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 6: the other is John Jones, Anderson Silva and GSP. Those

191
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 6: two me are the four. A lot of people are

192
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:32,080
Speaker 6: getting onto me. Josialdo I love Jose Aldo. If there

193
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:34,120
Speaker 6: was a fifth, he probably would be the fifth for me.

194
00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:36,840
Speaker 6: But I think it's those four and we can argue

195
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 6: who you think. I think Dimitri Johnson because I think

196
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 6: the greatest fighter of all time is the best fighter

197
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,680
Speaker 6: of all time, is the most skillful, and just for me,

198
00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,839
Speaker 6: he is. But if you look at what John Jones

199
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,040
Speaker 6: has done. It's very hard to argue against him. Look,

200
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:52,200
Speaker 6: it's hard to argue against any of them, to be honest,

201
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:54,480
Speaker 6: and it's easy to argue far all of them because

202
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 6: they're so good.

203
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,120
Speaker 4: But on his performance itself, do you know what? For

204
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:00,000
Speaker 4: as a.

205
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,680
Speaker 6: Purely someone who loves the analyze fights and talk about

206
00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:04,640
Speaker 6: fights and as a fan of the fight, it was

207
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 6: a bit disappointing because we didn't see more, you know,

208
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,439
Speaker 6: and especially I was there, you know, half six in

209
00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:11,080
Speaker 6: the morning or whatever it was, and it felt like

210
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 6: the fight was over before it was even over. They

211
00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,960
Speaker 6: showed the reaction of John and the guys in the

212
00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 6: commentary and you're all like kind of looking at each

213
00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,920
Speaker 6: other like what happened there? And we saw a replay

214
00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:21,720
Speaker 6: and we saw what did happen? So that was fine,

215
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:23,959
Speaker 6: but it just felt like we were kind of robbed

216
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 6: a little bit of seeing John Jones at me, because like,

217
00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,000
Speaker 6: there's if he goes in and fight stupid. We still

218
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 6: have those questions like can John Jones produce at heavyweight

219
00:09:33,360 --> 00:09:37,200
Speaker 6: over you know, twenty five minutes? Is John Jones's game

220
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,760
Speaker 6: going to be as useful at heavyweight as it is

221
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 6: at light heavyweight, and we can all of our assumptions

222
00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 6: about that, and I think most of those assumptions would

223
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,560
Speaker 6: be positive now, but there's still assumptions we don't actually know,

224
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 6: So for that to kind of be taken away was

225
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:54,120
Speaker 6: was unfortunate. But still Jones went in there, like the

226
00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,520
Speaker 6: only thing we really saw approving on that Saturday night

227
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,640
Speaker 6: was that Serial Gangs ground game is you know, very suspects,

228
00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:05,640
Speaker 6: and John Jones took complete advantage of that. But you

229
00:10:05,800 --> 00:10:07,720
Speaker 6: have to be that good to be able to take

230
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:09,880
Speaker 6: advantage of it. So he proved that in one way.

231
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,839
Speaker 6: But you know what he did prove that his next

232
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 6: paper view is going to be a massive seller, I think,

233
00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 6: because everyone's going to want to tune in to see

234
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 6: John Jones fight again. So it's a little bit of

235
00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 6: a negative, I suppose in that way, a positive for

236
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 6: John Jones because you have to win, but a massive

237
00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:25,040
Speaker 6: positive for John Jones because like if you managed to

238
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,400
Speaker 6: get there the next time for the big fight against Steve,

239
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:29,960
Speaker 6: everyone will be absolutely dying to see what he looks

240
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 6: like again because all those questions are still left unanswered.

241
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 5: Severe Mma Shan she and with us here on the

242
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 5: Anak and Florian podcast. How critical were you on your

243
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:42,840
Speaker 5: show shows to see ittle gone fairly critical?

244
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 6: To be honest, I like it's very tough for me

245
00:10:46,600 --> 00:10:48,480
Speaker 6: to sit here at home and go that. You know,

246
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,640
Speaker 6: how do you find yourself in that choke when you

247
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 6: are that level of fighter? But also like you have

248
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,440
Speaker 6: to do that? I think like you you you look

249
00:10:56,480 --> 00:11:00,040
Speaker 6: at a fight right where he fought Francis Inganu and

250
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 6: he got beaten in a similar start of way to

251
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:05,400
Speaker 6: everything that came before the chalk right, he got taken

252
00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:08,640
Speaker 6: down with a body lock over and over. If people

253
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 6: might remember Francis Singhan who didn't take him down once

254
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,959
Speaker 6: with like what you would call like a regular takedown,

255
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 6: no double legs, no single legs. I think he got

256
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,720
Speaker 6: like five six takedowns. One was when gang kicked like

257
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,040
Speaker 6: above his head and Francis kind of slammed him. All

258
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 6: the rest were body lock you know, muscle takedowns if

259
00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 6: you want to say that way. And that's exactly what

260
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 6: John Jones took him down with. And I think to myself,

261
00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 6: like what is going on here? Like how the first thing,

262
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 6: like two minutes into a fight, you get taken out,

263
00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 6: Like if you got taken out with a single leg

264
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 6: or a double leg or something different. I could have said, okay,

265
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 6: fair enough, but God might when you're taken down by

266
00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 6: that and then you get caught in a submission. John

267
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 6: Jones completely takes off the submission, readjusts himself, goes back in,

268
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 6: gets a submission again, and then you get tapped. I'm like,

269
00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 6: you know, I'm not, I'm not or anything like that.

270
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:56,800
Speaker 6: But that doesn't look good.

271
00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,880
Speaker 5: That is not good, and much worse upon the watch, honestly,

272
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 5: when Shohn bails on it and then with relative ease,

273
00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 5: sinks it right back in. All right, a few other

274
00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 5: things that I want to get to with the great

275
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:11,400
Speaker 5: Sean Sheen. So in terms of the altitude as a

276
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:14,240
Speaker 5: factor in the first fight, or excuse me, the second

277
00:12:14,280 --> 00:12:16,959
Speaker 5: fight between Leon Edwards and kamar Usman, right, so they

278
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,800
Speaker 5: fought in August last August UFC two seventy eight, and

279
00:12:19,920 --> 00:12:23,440
Speaker 5: Leon Edwards was largely listless in those middle rounds. So

280
00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 5: some people when they are handicapping this trilogy matchup, they're

281
00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,440
Speaker 5: talking a lot about altitude. Even Gilbert Urino Burns suggesting

282
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 5: that he is picking Leon Edwards because he just expects

283
00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:37,800
Speaker 5: him to be better and Teddy Atlas said to me

284
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 5: this week that when a champion wins the title, they

285
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:43,840
Speaker 5: become thirty percent better. Now that's not necessarily his theory.

286
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 5: I do subscribe to that philosophically. I think you win

287
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 5: the belt, you become twenty percent better, like instantly Alexa Grosso,

288
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 5: Leon Edwards instantly twenty percent better. But to what extent,

289
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:55,840
Speaker 5: if you can get predictive with me, do you think

290
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 5: that the altitude should be factored into a handicap for

291
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:00,239
Speaker 5: the main event this week.

292
00:13:01,320 --> 00:13:03,360
Speaker 6: I'm not sure, to be honest, Like, I think the

293
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:05,600
Speaker 6: second part of that is is more of a concern

294
00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:08,160
Speaker 6: in terms of how much better has Lion gotten, how

295
00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,400
Speaker 6: much worse has Kamara who got, or how much better

296
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 6: that his made KAMARAO, we don't know. We don't know

297
00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,640
Speaker 6: that answer, like the think under the champions, you know

298
00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,640
Speaker 6: we're getting twenty percent better as well. I always something

299
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,280
Speaker 6: Rashad Evans once said always stuck out to me. He said,

300
00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 6: I won the title, and the next morning I woke

301
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,120
Speaker 6: up and I was the same guy. I was like,

302
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:27,720
Speaker 6: I thought everything would be different. I thought my whole

303
00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:29,840
Speaker 6: life would change, but it really didn't. You know, I

304
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 6: was just a fighter. Who had to train hard every

305
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,400
Speaker 6: day to fight my next fight even though I had

306
00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 6: the belt, and like, that's not the same for everyone now,

307
00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:42,360
Speaker 6: and you know, maybe maybe Leon is a different mentality

308
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 6: to that, but I'm sure there is a bit of

309
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:45,880
Speaker 6: that there as well, and you have to kind of

310
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:48,200
Speaker 6: climb over that hurdle to get to that twenty percent

311
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,920
Speaker 6: to go into your next fight. So that's an interesting Well,

312
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 6: none of this is a given, like you would think.

313
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,880
Speaker 6: Ousman getting knocked out it's a given, and he might

314
00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 6: not be as confident going into this, but not necessarily

315
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,320
Speaker 6: he could be. His whole mindset could be I can't

316
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,280
Speaker 6: believe that fuck or knocked me out. I'm gonna go

317
00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,440
Speaker 6: in here and do absolutely everything. I'm gonna train as

318
00:14:05,440 --> 00:14:07,520
Speaker 6: hard as I've ever trained before and go in there

319
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 6: and beat him. So we really don't know, Like I

320
00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 6: think the knockout part is a massive part as well,

321
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 6: because I think I mentioned this on the show before,

322
00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:15,800
Speaker 6: but I spoke to Michaly Bissing once and talked about

323
00:14:15,800 --> 00:14:17,840
Speaker 6: the Dan Henderson knockout, and he told me the next

324
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 6: time he came to fight, he was backstage and he

325
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:21,640
Speaker 6: was thinking, oh my god, the last time I was fighting.

326
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,280
Speaker 6: I got knocked clean out. The most embarrassing thing about

327
00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 6: you know what ever happened. Usman is in the exact

328
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 6: same position now going into this fight, Like how will

329
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:31,480
Speaker 6: that mentally play against him?

330
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 4: I don't know.

331
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 6: And it's like it's such an interesting fight to break

332
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 6: down from a tactical point of view, because like I

333
00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,360
Speaker 6: think most people would agree before the last fight, after

334
00:14:40,400 --> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 6: the last fight that Usman is like slightly ahead in

335
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 6: terms of a technical fighter and a tactical fighter. And

336
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 6: got caught with a big knockout, which was great. There

337
00:14:47,560 --> 00:14:50,280
Speaker 6: was no piece of look about it whatsoever if anyone

338
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 6: says that they're a budget artists. He set it up,

339
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:55,520
Speaker 6: landed the shot, knocked him out, nothing at all lucky

340
00:14:55,560 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 6: about it. But throughout the whole, you know, twenty three

341
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,320
Speaker 6: minutes of the fight or whatever we saw from the

342
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,680
Speaker 6: first round, apart from you know, part of the fifth round,

343
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 6: Usman was the better fight. But what a fighter? Sorry,

344
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:09,320
Speaker 6: but what if he's five percent less? Like is Edwards

345
00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,960
Speaker 6: good enough to take advantage if he's five percent yet less?

346
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,720
Speaker 6: And I would say yes, is the answer to that

347
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 6: because Usman is like a massively well round the fighter.

348
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 6: I was talking about it on the podcast this week, like,

349
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:20,800
Speaker 6: is he the best striker.

350
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 4: In that division?

351
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 6: No?

352
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:22,640
Speaker 4: Is he the best wrestler in that division?

353
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:24,400
Speaker 6: No? Does he have the best cardy on that division?

354
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:26,800
Speaker 6: He's up there, but I would probably say no, Like

355
00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,360
Speaker 6: he's not the best at anything in that division, but

356
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 6: there's no one as well rounded as he is. If

357
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 6: you have an issue anywhere, whether it's mentally as Usman

358
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 6: might have, whether it's wrestling obviously with Chusman doesn't have,

359
00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:39,160
Speaker 6: whether it striking, whether it's cardiyo or whatever it might be,

360
00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 6: he will take advantage of it. If you're you know,

361
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 6: if the crowd is rolling at you when you come out,

362
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 6: all the English crowd behind you Edwards and you can't

363
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 6: handle that, he will take advantage of it. So this

364
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 6: is a fight I think where we saw the last

365
00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,480
Speaker 6: time Usman needed to be perfect and he wasn't, and

366
00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:55,400
Speaker 6: I think he needs to be again. Nothing you know,

367
00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 6: usually be said that we like, if you're fighting McGregor

368
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:58,880
Speaker 6: or a big knockout punter or something like that, you

369
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:02,120
Speaker 6: have to be perfect. When Edwards it's a little bit

370
00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 6: different because you throw away around, you throw away at

371
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,200
Speaker 6: two rounds. It's a very very tough position. Can someone

372
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,600
Speaker 6: as well around the same song, There's so many different integers.

373
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 6: I'm going to the second fight, Honestly, I wasn't that

374
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,000
Speaker 6: excited about it, to be honest. I wanted to see

375
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 6: the Shamoya fight and I want to see a couple

376
00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 6: of Rudni fights.

377
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 4: But now I'm massively.

378
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,720
Speaker 6: Excited for this one because there's so much we just

379
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 6: don't know.

380
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:24,240
Speaker 5: Some people billing it as the singular biggest fight in

381
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 5: UK mixed martial arts history. We asked our listeners and

382
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 5: viewers pull question on the Anakin Florian podcast and I

383
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 5: wanted to throw this your way shot. I don't need

384
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 5: any long form answer necessarily, and I don't even know

385
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,840
Speaker 5: necessarily how predictive you're forced to get on your show.

386
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,160
Speaker 5: But of the four fighters atop the marquee at UFC

387
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 5: two to eighty six, and I'll list them in order

388
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:46,520
Speaker 5: of betting favorite largest to smallest, kamar Usman, Rafael Phazibe,

389
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 5: Justin Gaichee, Leon Edwards in whom are you most confident

390
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 5: to get a win this weekend? And overwhelmingly well forty

391
00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,240
Speaker 5: percent of responding said kamar Usman, which is a high percentage.

392
00:16:57,640 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 5: Who are you most confident in terms of the Big

393
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:00,320
Speaker 5: Four this weekend.

394
00:17:01,320 --> 00:17:02,560
Speaker 4: I don't know, know, I haven't answer that.

395
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 6: I want to be honest, my two picks are are

396
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:10,639
Speaker 6: Usman and Physiv, but I'm not massively confident confident in

397
00:17:10,680 --> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 6: either of them, to be honest, like, I don't know

398
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:13,600
Speaker 6: one thing. I think a lot of people are right

399
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,440
Speaker 6: off Justin Gaichie very easily. Here we forget how good

400
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 6: of a fighter Justin Gachie actually is. And I just

401
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,720
Speaker 6: wonder if he had in something a little bit different. Yeah,

402
00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,480
Speaker 6: we're all expecting. I think Rockham Soccer robots barn Burn

403
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,560
Speaker 6: are over three rounds, But I wonder will he just

404
00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 6: trying to take down I wonder will he do something

405
00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:35,680
Speaker 6: a little bit different against Physiev? But also do you

406
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,639
Speaker 6: do you want to do that? Because if I think,

407
00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 6: if you're gay to you go a bit little bit

408
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:41,680
Speaker 6: more technical, you're playing into Geichy's Sorry, if you're Gey

409
00:17:41,760 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 6: you go a bit more technical, you're playing into Physiev's game.

410
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,560
Speaker 6: Do you push that Pesco absolutely all out and try

411
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:50,200
Speaker 6: to push the cardio issues that we've seen with Physiev

412
00:17:50,280 --> 00:17:51,880
Speaker 6: in the Bobby Green fight and in the the Sian

413
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 6: Just fight as well.

414
00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:57,600
Speaker 4: Very interesting, But I don't know. I go with physia

415
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,920
Speaker 4: physiv is man. I went along. I always go along.

416
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 5: No, it's good, that's good, all right, before I let

417
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 5: you go? Should I curb my enthusiasm on Ian Gary?

418
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 5: When I suggest that he's ready for top fifteen competition?

419
00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 5: I feel pretty convicted in saying that he has a

420
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 5: great chance to become a world champion in one of

421
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,120
Speaker 5: the UFC's most competitive divisions. I think he's elite right now.

422
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,879
Speaker 5: I think there are matchups in the top fifteen that

423
00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,840
Speaker 5: are favorable right now. Where is your level of enthusiasm

424
00:18:23,880 --> 00:18:26,360
Speaker 5: for Ian Gary as we sit here early twenty twenty three.

425
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:27,960
Speaker 2: I try to.

426
00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:29,600
Speaker 6: Temper it a little bit because I don't want to

427
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:31,760
Speaker 6: go overboard, because you know, I did the whole Irish

428
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,879
Speaker 6: ticke and everything like that. But he I interviewed in

429
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,160
Speaker 6: Gary before he made his professional debut, and I've seen

430
00:18:37,200 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 6: all these amateur fights and everything like that, and I've

431
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 6: been excited about him for a long, long long time,

432
00:18:42,080 --> 00:18:43,399
Speaker 6: and I think we got to the point where I

433
00:18:43,400 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 6: don't rush it now. Maybe you know, if you move

434
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:48,360
Speaker 6: him that one step too quickly, I think it might

435
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,760
Speaker 6: be an issue. I would love to see. I think

436
00:18:50,760 --> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 6: you mentioned an interview he did recently, Nico Price. What

437
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 6: a fight that would be, What an exciting fight that way,

438
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:58,040
Speaker 6: I would love to see that did Maybe you know

439
00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 6: Brian Barberan and Gunnar Nelson are fighting next week. Give

440
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,680
Speaker 6: him the winner that in after that maybe, and then

441
00:19:02,800 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 6: we can start talking about top fifteen votes. No problem too.

442
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 6: I think what he needs next is a guy everyone knows.

443
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 6: You know, he's fought some good guys so far, but

444
00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:13,399
Speaker 6: a lot of people maybe have to you know, go

445
00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:15,280
Speaker 6: on short Doug and see who they are kind of

446
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 6: a thing. No one has to do that with Heco Price,

447
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 6: No one has to do that with Bunny Neilson, No

448
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,800
Speaker 6: one has to that with Brian Barberina. I think that's

449
00:19:20,800 --> 00:19:24,040
Speaker 6: what he needs next, and didn't move him on further

450
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 6: after that, because, yeah, he has top fifteen written all

451
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:30,119
Speaker 6: over him. He has Top five written all over him

452
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 6: if things keep going the way they do. But we've

453
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:34,399
Speaker 6: seen many fighters before like that and they haven't reached it,

454
00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 6: so he'll he'll have to knuckle down and stay behind

455
00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:39,879
Speaker 6: the Henry Hooft is a great gym over there, and

456
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,600
Speaker 6: I know he's been training with Lean Edwards as well

457
00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 6: when he's been back in the UK, So yeah, he's

458
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,520
Speaker 6: some he's some great training behind him, but that definitely

459
00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,439
Speaker 6: has always been a top notch prospect and that he

460
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 6: will continue to be.

461
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 5: It's a great answer. Ready to go too with some

462
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,160
Speaker 5: possible future matchups fore and Gary, and I think that

463
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:59,399
Speaker 5: makes more sense right now. Nico Price probably number twenty

464
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 5: five in the world and the name recognition is certainly there,

465
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 5: all right. If you want more from Shaun Sheen on

00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 5: Very much appreciate you, brother. Enjoy the pay per view

468
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 5: this weekend. I am still sitting on my two tickets,

469
00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:14,760
Speaker 5: so I know you can get credentialed and you're probably

470
00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:16,960
Speaker 5: more connected than I even know. But if you change

471
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,840
Speaker 5: your mind, my two tickets are years this weekend.

472
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 4: Okay, iol.

473
00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 5: We'll talk Shan she.

474
00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:24,720
Speaker 4: Here.

475
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,440
Speaker 2: Always always good stuff.

476
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 5: From Shan Sheen here on the Anak and Florian podcast.

477
00:20:29,480 --> 00:20:30,919
Speaker 5: I did think it was interesting when I went on

478
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:34,560
Speaker 5: Teddy Atlas's show earlier this week, Kenny, when he said

479
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,840
Speaker 5: you win the title, you become thirty percent better, And

480
00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,159
Speaker 5: I don't know if he was attributing that quote to someone,

481
00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:43,199
Speaker 5: But in part he was piggybacking upon something that I

482
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:46,119
Speaker 5: had said, which is to suggest that like Leon Edwards

483
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 5: became better as soon as he walked out of that arena.

484
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 5: And now maybe I leaned too much into the aesthetic

485
00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,520
Speaker 5: on Instagram how he feels like he's taking his strength

486
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,679
Speaker 5: and conditioning to a whole new level. But to what

487
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:58,119
Speaker 5: extent do you subscribe to the theory that when you

488
00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:02,119
Speaker 5: become the champion you become twenty to thirty percent better.

489
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,040
Speaker 2: I think it is different for everyone. I will I

490
00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,920
Speaker 2: will use my own story to answer that. Though when

491
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 2: I was fighting, I wanted to know I wanted to

492
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,119
Speaker 2: fight the best guys, but I didn't know that I

493
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 2: wanted to be I didn't know that I would be

494
00:21:19,400 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 2: a world champion. I wanted to be a world champion,

495
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 2: and I think I was always waiting for that championship

496
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,840
Speaker 2: moment to pull through, and I always felt I was

497
00:21:29,880 --> 00:21:32,520
Speaker 2: on the if I could get over that hump, that

498
00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 2: absolutely I would. I would get that in my mind

499
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:39,959
Speaker 2: confidence wise for my training of what I was doing,

500
00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,719
Speaker 2: for my approach for my next fight. I always knew

501
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,600
Speaker 2: that or I felt like it would have made me

502
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 2: at least thirty percent better for sure. I that was

503
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,520
Speaker 2: like one of the big things for me, and I

504
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:59,120
Speaker 2: definitely believe that to be true for a lot of fighters.

505
00:21:59,359 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 2: You are you don't know that you could be a

506
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:04,760
Speaker 2: world champion, but you're trying to. And I think getting

507
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,720
Speaker 2: to that moment means so much, and I think it

508
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:10,960
Speaker 2: proved so much to yourself that it gives you this

509
00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:17,080
Speaker 2: insane amount of confidence. And yeah, I felt like that

510
00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:18,600
Speaker 2: would have been the case for me, So that was

511
00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,240
Speaker 2: surprising to hear that with Rashaw.

512
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,480
Speaker 5: That's interesting, It is interesting, and it's a longer form conversation.

513
00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 5: But when Kenny fought Joe Stevenson, if you don't know,

514
00:22:27,240 --> 00:22:31,280
Speaker 5: a UFC ninety one in two thousand and eight, underneath

515
00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,480
Speaker 5: Randy Kotour and Brock Lesner. It was one of the

516
00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,440
Speaker 5: biggest fights of Kenny's career, and there was so much

517
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 5: pressure on Kenny because it felt like he was being

518
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:41,199
Speaker 5: groomed as the number one contender yet again, and he

519
00:22:41,240 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 5: knew if he won this fight, he was going to

520
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:44,360
Speaker 5: be fighting for the belt. And you didn't just win

521
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,159
Speaker 5: the fight, but you dominated huge showcase fight, massive pay

522
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:49,879
Speaker 5: per view, and I just have to think going home

523
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 5: after that fight, your confidence was probably on a completely

524
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 5: different level. But you also are not yet the champion,

525
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:58,400
Speaker 5: and knowing you the way I know you, you're thinking

526
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 5: about all the work that probably you just laid out

527
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:02,960
Speaker 5: for yourself just by winning that fight, you know.

528
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 2: But totally totally man.

529
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 5: All right, Well, hope you're getting ready for UFC two

530

Speaker 5: Podcast Big Gun. Brian Petrie go.

559
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,080
Speaker 2: It's good to see you brother.

560
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:40,720
Speaker 4: Hey boys, how are we doing?

561
00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 5: So my twin brother felt like I should issue you

562
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:51,080
Speaker 5: an on air apology for last week. So nobody's happier

563
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,640
Speaker 5: for your success than me and can flow. Okay, I'm

564
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,080
Speaker 5: not sure anybody pumps out the MMA Takes podcast as

565
00:24:56,160 --> 00:24:59,800
Speaker 5: much as I do, right, So I would be expectant

566
00:24:59,800 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 5: that if you go on Serious XM satellite radio that

567
00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:06,440
Speaker 5: they would maybe promote our podcast, and so I guess

568
00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:08,320
Speaker 5: my venom should have been directed at them. But I

569
00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:11,120
Speaker 5: got in like a major fight with my twin brother

570
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 5: about this because he thought my venom was directed at you. No,

571
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,320
Speaker 5: so I'm just here to apologize if you sort of

572
00:25:18,359 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 5: felt that. You know I, but you know, my Serious

573
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:24,920
Speaker 5: ExM boycott boycott continues through International Fight Week, whether my

574
00:25:24,960 --> 00:25:25,959
Speaker 5: twin brother likes it or not.

575
00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:29,679
Speaker 4: I come from a long line of ball busting. I

576
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 4: mean literally, that's all me and my stepfather do that.

577
00:25:32,080 --> 00:25:34,320
Speaker 4: Instead of giving each other hugs, we insult each other.

578
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,080
Speaker 4: So I liked it because I froze when he goes

579
00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:39,400
Speaker 4: Brian Peach from him and it takes podcasts at Brian

580
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,080
Speaker 4: Peach MMA, I'm like, wait, shit, hold on, no, I'm yeah, yes,

581
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:45,879
Speaker 4: but I'm also from another bigger show, which is what

582
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:47,800
Speaker 4: most people know me from. So I kind of froze

583
00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:49,959
Speaker 4: a little bit, but no, thank you. Listen, no one

584
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,600
Speaker 4: rides hard for me than John Anick behind the scenes,

585
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,119
Speaker 4: on camera or whatever. I love it, and thank you

586
00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,879
Speaker 4: for Jason and Egg. What a lovely human being. To

587
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,000
Speaker 4: have my back. I thank you, Jason.

588
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,959
Speaker 5: I mean I can only be the president of Team Flory,

589
00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,040
Speaker 5: and it sounds like Jay is like the president of

590
00:26:05,080 --> 00:26:07,639
Speaker 5: Team Petriet. He came out with every park. But you

591
00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 5: can also catch Brian Petree in advance of UFC two

592
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,160
Speaker 5: eighty six on MMA Fighting dot Com and he'll also

593
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:15,320
Speaker 5: be on v Sin Show on Saturday with Dave Ross

594
00:26:15,320 --> 00:26:17,840
Speaker 5: and Matt Brown. I believe getting you prime for UFC

595
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 5: two eighty six do it.

596
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,399
Speaker 2: So I'm going to.

597
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,240
Speaker 5: Update the standings. But before I'm gonna do that, I

598
00:26:25,400 --> 00:26:27,919
Speaker 5: just quickly wanted to get your thoughts on Morob Dwallis

599
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:30,439
Speaker 5: Willy because I got Sean Sheen's thoughts and certainly you

600
00:26:30,440 --> 00:26:32,640
Speaker 5: heard from Ray Longo and Matt Sarah a few days ago.

601
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 5: No point of comparison for me, man, This dude's the

602
00:26:35,880 --> 00:26:39,600
Speaker 5: real deal and on a championship trajectory. To be sure,

603
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:42,120
Speaker 5: to what extent were you blown away by Morob last Saturday?

604
00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 4: I mean extremely blown away. Most kappers they don't like

605
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:48,680
Speaker 4: being wrong, right, They get chirped at and they get

606
00:26:48,800 --> 00:26:51,840
Speaker 4: very sensitive. Hey, you know, you know I want the heat.

607
00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:54,680
Speaker 4: I was wrong. I picked Yon. I thought the fight

608
00:26:54,760 --> 00:26:56,800
Speaker 4: was gonna be different. My pre fight read was wrong.

609
00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,919
Speaker 4: And we're sitting there watching the fights and I had

610
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:00,960
Speaker 4: a pretty good night betting and I had Yon. I

611
00:27:00,960 --> 00:27:03,200
Speaker 4: had Yon by decision, and as the fights going on,

612
00:27:03,240 --> 00:27:05,840
Speaker 4: I'm really quiet. My wife goes, oh no, oh, no,

613
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 4: you're losing a lot of money, aren't you. Who do

614
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 4: you got? Who should we root for? And it has

615
00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 4: nothing to do with me being mad. I was blown away.

616
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:17,200
Speaker 4: That was their career changing performance. That's like Mario when

617
00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:20,480
Speaker 4: he gets the mushroom. He leveled up Morob. The out

618
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,080
Speaker 4: of fight was a big fight, but he didn't look

619
00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:24,440
Speaker 4: as good as he got. He was striking, he was

620
00:27:24,600 --> 00:27:29,040
Speaker 4: interrupting Yon striking with his takedowns. Forty nine takedown attempts

621
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,080
Speaker 4: could look like he could have win another five rounds.

622
00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 4: I was in awe. And that's my biggest problem with

623
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 4: the Kapper is I'm a fan first, so the money aside.

624
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:41,160
Speaker 4: I was blown away by Myrob's performance. No one's gonna

625
00:27:41,200 --> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 4: want to fight that guy. I won thirty five. I mean,

626
00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 4: it's crazy. Who's signing the dotted line to fight him?

627
00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 4: And all the smarter people than me, like Kenny got

628
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,879
Speaker 4: him at plus money, which is in saying because I

629
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,080
Speaker 4: don't see that happening anytime soon either. So just overall,

630
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,600
Speaker 4: just an incredible level of performance by Morob and I

631
00:27:57,600 --> 00:27:59,639
Speaker 4: couldn't be have for it. Seems like a nice guy, obviously,

632
00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:02,159
Speaker 4: kind of family in the podcast with Ray and stuff.

633
00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:06,040
Speaker 5: So I mean, just unbelievable and an unbelievable battle for

634
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 5: airtime between Ray Longo and Matt Sarah on our Monday show,

635
00:28:09,320 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 5: so much so that we didn't get to acknowledge Alexander Volkov, who,

636
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,720
Speaker 5: by the way, Ken Flow changed his pick to uh

637
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:17,720
Speaker 5: the tail Petri. There you guys had Volkov plus one thirty.

638
00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 5: We didn't talk about Nikita Krilov. Kenny, I don't know

639
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:22,760
Speaker 5: the jiu jitsu world, but I'm just saying, like I'm

640
00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:26,440
Speaker 5: avoiding fighting Nikita Krilov if I'm a light heavyweight contender.

641
00:28:26,520 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 5: I just feel like he is so problematic in so

642
00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 5: many different areas of the game, and uh, just want

643
00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:33,760
Speaker 5: to get your two cents on that fight. I know

644
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 5: you did pick Krilla.

645
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 2: The dude just wants to fight you. He wants to

646
00:28:37,680 --> 00:28:40,440
Speaker 2: get right in your face and just scrap. Let's get

647
00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,120
Speaker 2: right to the point here, Who's who's the better man.

648
00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,840
Speaker 2: Uh and I love that about him. Uh, And I

649
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,080
Speaker 2: don't I think it was the right approach because I

650
00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,240
Speaker 2: don't think Span was ready for that level of pressure

651
00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,040
Speaker 2: and pacing. You know Span Span can get down to

652
00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 2: Dirty two. But I think over time, I think he

653
00:28:58,520 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 2: started to lose confidence. He was going for a bunch

654
00:29:00,880 --> 00:29:03,920
Speaker 2: of submissions, was losing position, and Kriloff just was kind

655
00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,880
Speaker 2: of kept getting out of those positions. Span was getting

656
00:29:06,920 --> 00:29:10,360
Speaker 2: more frustrated, and because of it, he lost confidence and

657
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:13,320
Speaker 2: Kriloff started to take over. Uh just kind of fell

658
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:16,600
Speaker 2: right into that trigle man and Kriloff is a finisher

659
00:29:16,680 --> 00:29:19,640
Speaker 2: through and through. That was a wild fight, dude.

660
00:29:19,760 --> 00:29:22,240
Speaker 5: And then BP, Yeah, you had I eating her mago

661
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 5: Metov over Jonathan Martinez. It sounds to me, based upon

662
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 5: our text chain, that both you and Kenny actually thought,

663
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 5: sayied hermago Metov did enough to win the fight. You

664
00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 5: went three units right, Esta goes on the table. So

665
00:29:34,920 --> 00:29:37,600
Speaker 5: that's a huge swing, right from plus three hundred to

666
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:40,440
Speaker 5: minus six hundred, so a nine hundred dollars swing for you.

667
00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:43,320
Speaker 4: Your thoughts on that fight, Listen, I might have had

668
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:47,800
Speaker 4: some green colored glasses. I was very upset initially Kenny

669
00:29:47,840 --> 00:29:50,880
Speaker 4: rewatched it and said, I think Sayid won. I still

670
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 4: think he won, but it was razor closed. That third

671
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 4: round was everything. I thought it was one one going

672
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:59,000
Speaker 4: to the third. I thought SAYI won the third, but

673
00:29:59,080 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 4: no bones about it. So he'd faded a little bit.

674
00:30:01,120 --> 00:30:03,600
Speaker 4: Jonathan Martinez is the dog in there. He'd follow me

675
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 4: a lot of stuff, stuff that I did not think

676
00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:07,720
Speaker 4: he'd be able to defend. So that was a poor

677
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,959
Speaker 4: read on my part, putting three units on the table.

678
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 4: So I'm not going to BlimE the judges that one.

679
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:13,920
Speaker 4: But I do think he won the fight. But you know,

680
00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:15,480
Speaker 4: you know it is what it is. You know, I'm

681
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:18,520
Speaker 4: gonna have to dust myself off and win some fights here.

682
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:21,479
Speaker 5: Come on, if this podcast is still going strong in

683
00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 5: ten twelve years, when I'm done, I can't wait to

684
00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:27,920
Speaker 5: have a team because if you remember, Petrie and I

685
00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 5: are a team this year, and Cody and Kenny are

686
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,400
Speaker 5: a team. So I'm taking the Patriot punishment however it falls.

687
00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:35,440
Speaker 5: But dude, I'd be doing like five Star Max plays

688
00:30:35,440 --> 00:30:37,640
Speaker 5: every week. It would be so reckless. I'd be like

689
00:30:37,680 --> 00:30:39,200
Speaker 5: five grand down in mid March.

690
00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, real quickly.

691
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,240
Speaker 5: I want to get Kenny's thoughts before I update the

692
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:46,640
Speaker 5: standings on this inverted triangle by Davey Grant. Certainly, I

693
00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:49,720
Speaker 5: remember one of the first pro mma fights I ever called.

694
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,360
Speaker 5: It was Toby Imada getting Jorge mosfeed All with that

695
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 5: inverted reverse triangle choke. But halfayel is Unsalve got as

696
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,480
Speaker 5: high as number three in the world, Kenny. He won

697
00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 5: seven in a row from two thousand and eleven to

698
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:03,640
Speaker 5: twenty fourteen, right that included a win over TJ. Dillashaw

699
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 5: by split decision, set up a rematch with Dilashaw if

700
00:31:06,440 --> 00:31:09,080
Speaker 5: you recall it UFC two hundred and He lost that

701
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 5: fight and Sonso ends up closing out his career having

702
00:31:12,080 --> 00:31:14,480
Speaker 5: lost five of six. But even after the Dillashaw loss

703
00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,200
Speaker 5: won four more in a row, included a win over

704
00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:19,600
Speaker 5: al Jamain Sterling and a winover Rob font So wanted

705
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:22,600
Speaker 5: to throw a little of Sunso appreciation out there, and

706
00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:24,800
Speaker 5: also get your thoughts on that inverted triangle, because you

707
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 5: certainly don't see that every day.

708
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,600
Speaker 2: A Sunsau is a stud man, you know, called a

709
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 2: lot of his fights. Knew him and his brother from

710
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 2: way before when they weren't in the UFC just doing

711
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:39,120
Speaker 2: jiu jitsu tournaments, and it was good to see a

712
00:31:39,200 --> 00:31:42,160
Speaker 2: Sunsaw have his retirement moment and all that stuff deserves

713
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 2: a ton of respect. If you're a UFC fighter, John,

714
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,880
Speaker 2: You're looking for at the very least like a signature win,

715
00:31:50,160 --> 00:31:54,720
Speaker 2: and that next level up from that would be some

716
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:58,040
Speaker 2: kind of highlight, right like that highlight knockout or submission.

717
00:31:58,120 --> 00:32:01,600
Speaker 2: That was Davy Grant's moment right there, because you look

718
00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:04,240
Speaker 2: at the whole sequence he went. He hurt a sunsw

719
00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:06,840
Speaker 2: so those rocked. You know, he shoots in for that

720
00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:10,320
Speaker 2: takedown and he goes right into one of the most

721
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:14,800
Speaker 2: technical and unusual submissions in the game, gets that inverted triangle,

722
00:32:14,960 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 2: just a thing of beauty puts him out. Uh man.

723
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:23,440
Speaker 2: I was loving that. And Davy Grant, Matt, He's again

724
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:25,840
Speaker 2: one of these guys, one of the nicest dudes ever.

725
00:32:25,920 --> 00:32:29,280
Speaker 2: I've known him a long time as well. So to

726
00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,959
Speaker 2: see him get that kind of signature win over, you know,

727
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,960
Speaker 2: a legend really in a Sunsow was really brian.

728
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 5: It seemed like it came shortly after Davy Grant was

729
00:32:39,040 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 5: deducted a point for a fence grab and Eric Nixon

730
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,200
Speaker 5: took issue with the fact that a Sunsow was not

731
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:48,440
Speaker 5: regranted the position, right, if you're a sun Sow retroactively,

732
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:51,720
Speaker 5: certainly rather rather the position than have that point deducted.

733
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,360
Speaker 5: But I thought that was interesting as well.

734
00:32:53,320 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, I mean, listen, Davy Grant, that's it was theatric.

735
00:32:57,760 --> 00:32:59,640
Speaker 4: You know, he's down on point, he might lose, He's

736
00:32:59,640 --> 00:33:01,960
Speaker 4: getting down a lot, you know, since I was winning

737
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 4: the fight essentially, and then he comes back and he

738
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 4: pulls that out. I mean, unbelievab could have happen to

739
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 4: a nicer guy, and in a in a stud I've

740
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,880
Speaker 4: doubted him. I was like, because he missed a lot

741
00:33:12,920 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 4: of time with injuries and he came off the alternate fighter,

742
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,480
Speaker 4: and I was like, this guy's still in the roster.

743
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,800
Speaker 4: I was dead wrong because he's the only one that's

744
00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:22,239
Speaker 4: given Adrianez an actual fight. I mean that was I mean,

745
00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 4: some people thought he might have won, so kids nails.

746
00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:26,040
Speaker 4: I love it.

747
00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 2: Well.

748
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:30,160
Speaker 5: I let us update the standings. Kenny Florian's lead is

749
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:35,200
Speaker 5: now thirteen hundred and fifteen dollars, so Team Florian was

750
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 5: minus five oh five teen, Petrie was minus ten to twenty.

751
00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:41,200
Speaker 5: We mentioned the three units staying on site. Nermago Medov

752
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 5: Kenny switch up after the way and he did not

753
00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 5: like Alexander Romanov on the scale pivots to Volkov. Nicely done,

754
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,040
Speaker 5: Ken Flow. I don't know that you've ever missed when

755
00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 5: you've pivoted off of one guy to another, and then Kenny.

756
00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 5: The big one was, of course, his hit on Rob

757
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,640
Speaker 5: Dwallace Willie plus one eighty five. So Florian in the

758
00:33:56,640 --> 00:33:59,640
Speaker 5: black for the week plus one fifteen shaves his overall

759
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 5: nut down out to minus three to ninety Petrie minus

760
00:34:01,760 --> 00:34:05,400
Speaker 5: six eighty five on the week minus seventeen oh five. Overall,

761
00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,960
Speaker 5: we've had a lot of response from our listeners in

762
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:10,879
Speaker 5: terms of how to make this more accurate in terms

763
00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:14,279
Speaker 5: of your year end number. I am not going to

764
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 5: allow you guys to pick totals over under four and

765
00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,360
Speaker 5: a half rounds on the main event. Not going to

766
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 5: do totals at least right now. Maybe I'll change my mind,

767
00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,000
Speaker 5: but in an effort to have a more real number

768
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 5: for you guys at the end of the year, here

769
00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,760
Speaker 5: too four you will be allowed to abstain from picking

770
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,680
Speaker 5: one fight per week, so we still would like your analysis,

771
00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,560
Speaker 5: but you don't have to bet every fight, and with

772
00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,359
Speaker 5: that we will get in to UFC two to eighty six.

773
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,399
Speaker 5: I'll take a quick pick here, Joann Wood minus one

774
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:42,759
Speaker 5: sixty five Luena Carolinas plus one forty. Now, this fight,

775
00:34:42,840 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 5: you guys were picking because it was going to be

776
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:46,880
Speaker 5: the feature about on pay per view, at least on

777
00:34:46,920 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 5: a first draft of the fight card that I saw.

778
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,120
Speaker 5: I guess I'll have to ask my man, Zach Candido

779
00:34:51,160 --> 00:34:53,120
Speaker 5: as to the changes. But now this is the third

780
00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:55,600
Speaker 5: fight of the night and not third from last, Brian

781
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,799
Speaker 5: probably makes more sense and more appropriate slot just given

782
00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,720
Speaker 5: the stakes, both of these women coming off at least

783
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:03,960
Speaker 5: one loss in a row. Which way you going here?

784
00:35:04,040 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 5: Joanne Wood Luana Carolina?

785
00:35:05,800 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 4: Yeah? I love Joe Wood. Joan Wood. You know she's

786
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,759
Speaker 4: been around forever. Problem is is I just feel like

787
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:14,320
Speaker 4: she doesn't want anymore. She seems just a little listless

788
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:16,000
Speaker 4: in there. She doesn't seem like she wants in. Luna

789
00:35:16,040 --> 00:35:18,640
Speaker 4: Carolina coming off the horrible knockout over Molly mccamb but

790
00:35:18,680 --> 00:35:20,920
Speaker 4: the fight where it was competitive. My biggest problem with

791
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 4: Luna Carolina is her volume. She doesn't throw enough. I

792
00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:26,680
Speaker 4: think if she threw enough, she's got great kicks, great

793
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:28,319
Speaker 4: hands long front of the vision. I think she'd be

794
00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 4: really she would do really well take down the fences.

795
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:32,840
Speaker 4: Has sure it up had been a problem in the past.

796
00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,040
Speaker 4: Don't see that being a problem against Joan Wood. Hate

797
00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,000
Speaker 4: picking against Joan Wood, but I gotta go with the

798
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,080
Speaker 4: dog here in Luna Carolina. I think she's good a

799
00:35:39,080 --> 00:35:42,120
Speaker 4: decision her, maybe even finished her on the feet, but

800
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:45,279
Speaker 4: I just think she's a little bit longer, all right.

801
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:48,799
Speaker 5: Ppte likes Luana Carolina. Joanne Woods lost three in a

802
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:51,279
Speaker 5: row can Flow, last of which came about a year

803
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,759
Speaker 5: ago Petrie was in the building. Came against the now

804
00:35:53,800 --> 00:35:59,200
Speaker 5: champ Alexa Grosso. Carolina felt Molly McCann's power her last

805
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:02,359
Speaker 5: time out, that was three hundred and sixty four days ago.

806
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:04,239
Speaker 5: When she makes the walk Saturday at the O two,

807
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 5: You going, Carolina the dog or Jojo would the favorite

808
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:07,839
Speaker 5: ken Flow?

809
00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,160
Speaker 2: You know, I think a lot of that's fair of

810
00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:15,160
Speaker 2: what Brian said. However, I do think Luana lacks a

811
00:36:15,200 --> 00:36:18,240
Speaker 2: little bit of potency with her striking, Like there's nothing

812
00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,640
Speaker 2: where I could say, you know, she could go out

813
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:23,640
Speaker 2: there and really, you know, juice up that fight to

814
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,839
Speaker 2: the point where she where she can really take over.

815
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:29,799
Speaker 2: I think this is a fight where Jojo can let

816
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:33,840
Speaker 2: her skills shine a little bit more. You know, again,

817
00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:35,920
Speaker 2: a lot of it does depend on how badly she

818
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,960
Speaker 2: wants this. I think that is accurate. But I think

819
00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:40,160
Speaker 2: Jojo can pull this off.

820
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 5: So give me, would gimme would Gotta think Ken Flow

821
00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:47,120
Speaker 5: that she's put in some serious work, having dropped her

822
00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 5: last three. All right featured pre La Matt Featherweight, Jack

823
00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:54,800
Speaker 5: Sure minus four ninety Makwanamir Kani plus three ninety So

824
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 5: Sure a near five to one favorite. Brian and his

825
00:36:58,760 --> 00:37:01,000
Speaker 5: divisional debut. He is seven to zero in this weight

826
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,720
Speaker 5: class for the record, started as a pro one forty

827
00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:07,400
Speaker 5: five twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, then moved down, became the

828
00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,759
Speaker 5: Cage Warriors Bannaway champion. Then he loses for the first

829
00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:12,440
Speaker 5: time in the UFC to Ricky Simon, and now he's

830
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:14,279
Speaker 5: moving on up to face Amir Kannie, who's about his

831
00:37:14,320 --> 00:37:17,279
Speaker 5: is UFC tested as it gets Brian Petrie, Jack Shore,

832
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 5: Makwanimir Kani.

833
00:37:18,960 --> 00:37:19,440
Speaker 2: Who do you like?

834
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 4: This is a tough one because I hate the line.

835
00:37:21,480 --> 00:37:25,160
Speaker 4: I mean Jack Shore, he's a great prospect. He showed

836
00:37:25,239 --> 00:37:28,280
Speaker 4: what he lacked in Ricky Simone. Simone's a fucking beast

837
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,440
Speaker 4: for the division. And Jack Shaw's got some tricky striking,

838
00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,000
Speaker 4: doesn't throw enough, his volumes never high. Good takedown or

839
00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,279
Speaker 4: good jiu jitsu takedowns, excuse me, or a little on

840
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:41,600
Speaker 4: the average side. Thinking on Amir Kannie, who's flashy at times,

841
00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:44,879
Speaker 4: who gases at times, who looks good at times, He's

842
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:48,640
Speaker 4: very unpredictable. It's hard to really pin this guy down.

843
00:37:49,320 --> 00:37:52,480
Speaker 4: And uh, you know the you know, mister Finland with

844
00:37:52,600 --> 00:37:54,360
Speaker 4: all the chicks. I mean, the guy could take the

845
00:37:54,640 --> 00:37:57,200
Speaker 4: break from the chicks. He had some good cardio, I'd imagine,

846
00:37:58,400 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 4: but you know, if you look at his topology, bidgets

847
00:38:00,440 --> 00:38:03,000
Speaker 4: is him with some chicks. But this is a tough fight, Listen.

848
00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,120
Speaker 4: I think Jack Shore is the better fighter here, but

849
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:08,640
Speaker 4: at the price, I don't know. And we play a

850
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 4: game in this, you know, we play a game, and

851
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:12,960
Speaker 4: it might be worth it to take Amer Khani here,

852
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,040
Speaker 4: but I can't. I can't do it. I won't allow

853
00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,000
Speaker 4: myself to do it. I'm going to pick Jack Shore,

854
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,000
Speaker 4: and this is one of the fights I'm gonna I'm

855
00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:21,959
Speaker 4: gonna abstain from. I'm not gonna pick. I'm not gonna

856
00:38:21,960 --> 00:38:24,719
Speaker 4: pick this one just because the line's too crazy. I

857
00:38:24,880 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 4: can't predict Amir Kanie. I just can't do it. Even

858
00:38:27,719 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 4: though I think jack SSU was very good. I feel

859
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,840
Speaker 4: like a big puss back for not doing it. If

860
00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:33,799
Speaker 4: we're restraining, but just I'm not gonna do it. I'm

861
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 4: not gonna do it. I can't do it.

862
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:39,760
Speaker 5: No, And that's why we have injected abstinence in this equation,

863
00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:41,800
Speaker 5: because we don't want you guys to be in a

864
00:38:41,840 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 5: position where you have to lay minus four ninety to

865
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 5: Jack Shore and to tell the audience that when you're

866
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 5: not recommending at all, that they lay a price like that.

867
00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:53,640
Speaker 5: Kenny fourteenth UFC start for mister Finland, Makwanamir kana He's

868
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:56,279
Speaker 5: seven and six, but five of those losses just hear

869
00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,720
Speaker 5: me out, JSP Jonathan Pierce, who I think is future

870
00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,560
Speaker 5: Top five, the undefeated Laron Murphy who fights this weekend,

871
00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:06,280
Speaker 5: the nineteen and one, Arnold Allen, Anson, Barboza, and Shane Bergo.

872
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,719
Speaker 5: So it's not as though his record is littered with

873
00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:10,640
Speaker 5: bad losses. For the most part of mere Kannie has

874
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:13,000
Speaker 5: beaten the guys. He's supposed to beat Vegas says he's

875
00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,319
Speaker 5: not supposed to beat Jack Shore.

876
00:39:14,360 --> 00:39:17,760
Speaker 2: What do you think this is? Why BP is so smack.

877
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:22,600
Speaker 2: I think that Amir Kanie is very dangerous. He's got

878
00:39:22,719 --> 00:39:26,439
Speaker 2: knockout power, He's got that wrestling background. I do think

879
00:39:26,560 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 2: Jack Shore overall is the more technical fighter. I think

880
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:34,320
Speaker 2: he wins this fight by decision, maybe by submission. And

881
00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 2: we've seen Amir Kannie susceptible to losing position in the past,

882
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,839
Speaker 2: So I'm going with Jack Shore on this one as well.

883
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:46,359
Speaker 2: And I'm with you BP. It's not worth the bend though.

884
00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:49,600
Speaker 2: The line is just way too heavy for Jack Shore

885
00:39:49,640 --> 00:39:50,480
Speaker 2: almost five to one.

886
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,799
Speaker 5: Can't do it not We'll see And again, you guys

887
00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,640
Speaker 5: reserve the right as long as you tag the podcast

888
00:39:57,719 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 5: so Cody can repurpose that you do. Reserve the right

889
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 5: to change your pick.

890
00:40:00,960 --> 00:40:01,279
Speaker 4: All right.

891
00:40:01,400 --> 00:40:04,400
Speaker 5: Pay per view main card opener in the middleweight division

892
00:40:04,440 --> 00:40:06,680
Speaker 5: Marvin Vatory minus two sixty five, Roman de Leeds a

893
00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:09,880
Speaker 5: plus two twenty five Delidsay six and one of the

894
00:40:09,960 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 5: UFC coming off the stoppage of Jack Romanson last December.

895
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 2: Bry.

896
00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 5: I guess if anybody can knock out the hot headed

897
00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:18,759
Speaker 5: Marvin Vattori. Maybe it's this fucking guy. What do you

898
00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:20,040
Speaker 5: think of these two eighty five vers?

899
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,640
Speaker 4: Love this fight. This fight's got some juice to me.

900
00:40:22,719 --> 00:40:26,320
Speaker 4: You know, Marvin Tory blockhead for a reason. You know,

901
00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,880
Speaker 4: the guy is a little delusional at times with his

902
00:40:28,960 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 4: own skills. But he left California's in Vegas now he's

903
00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:35,280
Speaker 4: training with the crop at eighty five. Chris curtishan Strickland

904
00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 4: de Leedsday was a part of that camp. Not sure

905
00:40:37,040 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 4: if he did this camp in Georgia. A lot of

906
00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:41,320
Speaker 4: moving parts going on here. But Fedori looks to be

907
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:43,480
Speaker 4: in great ship. His problem is he's and it's not

908
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:46,279
Speaker 4: even a problem. He's just good, right, but he's not

909
00:40:46,400 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 4: great anywhere. He can take you now. And he's a big,

910
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,640
Speaker 4: strong guy. But only got one submission in the UFC

911
00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 4: do with his name, I believe, maybe one other one,

912
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,920
Speaker 4: but Carl Robas was the last one. He did. Pillow hands,

913
00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 4: doesn't really knock, gonna be out, has good boxing, dropped

914
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 4: Jack Romanson, but you know he can. He has a

915
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:01,920
Speaker 4: guy's got good card. You can't put him out then

916
00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 4: you got delite. He's just a fucking.

917
00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 2: Wild man, right.

918
00:41:04,600 --> 00:41:06,719
Speaker 4: Strikes aren't the most prettiest out there.

919
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:06,920
Speaker 2: Right.

920
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:09,520
Speaker 4: He throws heavy hands, can knock you out from different

921
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 4: and weird angles, and his ground game's really good. I mean,

922
00:41:12,440 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 4: what he did to Jack Ramanson on the ground last

923
00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:17,680
Speaker 4: time out was so impressive because Romanson is a stuter

924
00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:20,000
Speaker 4: on the ground, no chump that. I'm like, whoa this?

925
00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 4: And that was off his back that he did that,

926
00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 4: you know, a couple of sweeps that he hit, and

927
00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:26,400
Speaker 4: it was very impressive. Man. Yeah, I mean, I love

928
00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,800
Speaker 4: this fight so much and listen, but Torri could go

929
00:41:29,080 --> 00:41:33,120
Speaker 4: three rounds, peace up, Dalite, win a decision, you know,

930
00:41:33,719 --> 00:41:35,440
Speaker 4: do his yell at the end and call for a

931
00:41:35,520 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 4: title shot or whatever he does. But that's boring, right,

932
00:41:37,840 --> 00:41:40,560
Speaker 4: Let's not be boring. Let's go dog here, Let's go Dalite.

933
00:41:41,560 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 4: I don't think he can finish him, because I do

934
00:41:43,280 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 4: trust Martin Torrey's durability, but it'd be something else if

935
00:41:47,120 --> 00:41:48,399
Speaker 4: he could get this guy out of there. But give

936
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:51,399
Speaker 4: me dealitze here. I just think he's he's got something

937
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:52,800
Speaker 4: to him. I mean, I know, if you guys remember

938
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,360
Speaker 4: his fight with John Allen, he looks at the corner

939
00:41:55,400 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 4: and goes, hey, let me drop for a heel hook

940
00:41:58,000 --> 00:42:00,880
Speaker 4: drop for Heroick doesn't get it right, doesn't get in

941
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:02,840
Speaker 4: the cockiness of this guy to be like, hey, you

942
00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:04,719
Speaker 4: want to meet him with my move and not even

943
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:06,879
Speaker 4: finish yet. I love the guy. I love him going

944
00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:09,640
Speaker 4: to Leeds's a hot hand could be unfeeded that Trevin

945
00:42:09,680 --> 00:42:12,080
Speaker 4: Jihns fight with a little suspect in my opinion, So yeah,

946
00:42:12,120 --> 00:42:13,200
Speaker 4: give me the leads man.

947
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,239
Speaker 5: And I have said, there's no fighter that intimidates me

948
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 5: more in a fighter meeting setting than Roman Deleds. I

949
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:20,480
Speaker 5: was so happy to see that he's not on our

950
00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:24,000
Speaker 5: list actually for London this week. So Kenny, Marvin Vatori

951
00:42:24,040 --> 00:42:26,279
Speaker 5: is still twenty nine years old. Despite all of the

952
00:42:26,400 --> 00:42:29,520
Speaker 5: MMA accomplishments, Roman Dealeds is thirty four and just one

953
00:42:29,600 --> 00:42:34,000
Speaker 5: number for you. Since twenty sixteen, seven years, only two

954
00:42:34,080 --> 00:42:35,840
Speaker 5: men have beaten Marvin Vttori. Is there a lot of

955
00:42:35,880 --> 00:42:38,120
Speaker 5: Signi and Robert Whitaker and neither man could put him

956
00:42:38,120 --> 00:42:42,160
Speaker 5: away spanning those fifty five minutes. So certainly the fights

957
00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:45,359
Speaker 5: that he has had to win Paolo Costa and others,

958
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,280
Speaker 5: he has won favor to win again here against Deleds.

959
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 5: How do you see a plan out?

960
00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,160
Speaker 2: Well, Victory's very consistent you know exactly what he brings

961
00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,279
Speaker 2: to the table, you know exactly what he's going to do,

962
00:42:55,520 --> 00:42:58,279
Speaker 2: and he can be very difficult to stop him from

963
00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:03,319
Speaker 2: doing that. I think that, uh, yeah, you know, he's

964
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:06,640
Speaker 2: the favorite here, no question about it. But if you

965
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,279
Speaker 2: beat Vittori, I think you kind of have to beat

966
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:13,480
Speaker 2: him by submission or by knockout, and I think Dalitze

967
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 2: absolutely has the ability to do that. I think Vittori

968
00:43:17,840 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 2: is underrated as a grappler a bit, but I do

969
00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:24,480
Speaker 2: think that d'alitze is much better with this submission game,

970
00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:27,040
Speaker 2: and I think he could catch I think he can

971
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:30,800
Speaker 2: catch victory with something, whether it's a leg attack or

972
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 2: maybe take the back. He does a lot of unusual

973
00:43:34,280 --> 00:43:37,919
Speaker 2: and unorthodox moves on the ground and that can throw

974
00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:42,719
Speaker 2: off a style like Buttori, who's very straightforward, needs that

975
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:45,799
Speaker 2: kind of rice and beans style of a fight for him.

976
00:43:45,840 --> 00:43:48,960
Speaker 2: And if it goes that way, then Vittori wins this fight.

977
00:43:49,120 --> 00:43:52,160
Speaker 2: But I think there's enough value on Dalite at what

978
00:43:52,320 --> 00:43:54,960
Speaker 2: is it plus two twenty five right to go his way.

979
00:43:55,200 --> 00:43:58,080
Speaker 2: I think that I think he can catch him in

980
00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:01,200
Speaker 2: a submission, some kind of crazy trans or maybe even

981
00:44:01,239 --> 00:44:03,879
Speaker 2: catching with one of those wild strikes because Vittri gets

982
00:44:03,920 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 2: a very emotional end there sometimes, so I think it's

983
00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,400
Speaker 2: worth it. De Let's say is he's an interesting and

984
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:13,680
Speaker 2: interesting cat who I think could surprise a lot of people.

985
00:44:14,080 --> 00:44:17,759
Speaker 5: I think the matchmakers are expecting fireworks. Yeah, putting him

986
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:19,359
Speaker 5: in that slot to kick off the pay per view.

987
00:44:19,360 --> 00:44:22,239
Speaker 5: We'll see if Roman Deliedze can oblige against my good

988
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,960
Speaker 5: friend Marvin Vittori. All right, huge fight of flyway for

989
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,600
Speaker 5: the women, especially given the new champ now atop the division.

990
00:44:27,600 --> 00:44:30,560
Speaker 5: You got twelfth rank Casey O'Neill minus one eighty number

991
00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,400
Speaker 5: eight Jennifer Mayah plus one fifty five. Can you imagine

992
00:44:33,440 --> 00:44:35,359
Speaker 5: how pissed Casey O'Neil would have been if Jojo Wood

993
00:44:35,440 --> 00:44:37,000
Speaker 5: was on this pay per view. I know their teammates,

994
00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:39,640
Speaker 5: but you know this is the fight that deserves to

995
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:41,560
Speaker 5: be on pay per view. These are the two women

996
00:44:41,680 --> 00:44:44,279
Speaker 5: within the top twelve. O'Neil is coming off a major

997
00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,520
Speaker 5: knee surgery, but she is nine to zero. Last win

998
00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:51,680
Speaker 5: came February twenty twenty two against roxand Mada Ferry. Twenty

999
00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,560
Speaker 5: professional mixed martial arts wins for Jennifer Maya. She's five

1000
00:44:54,600 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 5: and five in the UFC, though bought for the belt

1001
00:44:56,840 --> 00:44:59,640
Speaker 5: back in twenty twenties. You know, Brian Petrie, Yes, you

1002
00:44:59,760 --> 00:45:01,000
Speaker 5: go on Maya her own neal kid.

1003
00:45:01,400 --> 00:45:03,480
Speaker 4: This is a tough one because I like case o neil.

1004
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:05,560
Speaker 4: I've been on Casey O'Neil side since she's debut in

1005
00:45:05,560 --> 00:45:08,759
Speaker 4: the UFC. She's easy on the eyes, let's just put

1006
00:45:08,800 --> 00:45:11,480
Speaker 4: it that way for your boy. And she's a great fighter.

1007
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,680
Speaker 4: More importantly, she's a great fighter. I like watching her fight,

1008
00:45:14,000 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 4: but coming off a knee surgery like that scares me. Right,

1009
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,960
Speaker 4: she hasn't really fought a lee competition yet. She had

1010
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,319
Speaker 4: a split decision went over Roxy MANAFII, which I mean,

1011
00:45:22,400 --> 00:45:24,120
Speaker 4: that's fine. You know, I thought I thought you won,

1012
00:45:24,160 --> 00:45:27,160
Speaker 4: but it got close towards the end there. I like

1013
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:30,239
Speaker 4: all her skills, but Jennifer Maya, I that one round

1014
00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,880
Speaker 4: she put against Valentina stuck in my brain, Like she

1015
00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,480
Speaker 4: had a really good round against Valentina, and I'm like,

1016
00:45:35,560 --> 00:45:38,000
Speaker 4: can this? Can she do this for five rounds? You couldn't.

1017
00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,120
Speaker 4: But I'm like, if she could really put something together,

1018
00:45:40,239 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 4: she's she's she's good. Strike counts low, takedowns are low.

1019
00:45:45,080 --> 00:45:47,479
Speaker 4: But when you're giving me a plus number against someone

1020
00:45:47,560 --> 00:45:49,799
Speaker 4: coming off a really bad knee injury like that. We've

1021
00:45:49,840 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 4: seen it before, guys, are you know fighters are a

1022
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,040
Speaker 4: little unsteady coming back and it's only been a year.

1023
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:56,600
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know if she's rushing or not,

1024
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,960
Speaker 4: like hopefully not, but hasn't been that long of a

1025
00:45:59,040 --> 00:46:01,840
Speaker 4: time and this is our biggest fight to date in

1026
00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:04,839
Speaker 4: my opinion, name wise. So I'm gonna go, dog, I'm

1027
00:46:04,840 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 4: gonna go Jennifer Maya here. I hate picking against Casey o'neils.

1028
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,399
Speaker 4: I think she's I think she's really good, she's tough,

1029
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:13,560
Speaker 4: she's she's got a little attitude on her. She's nasty

1030
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,040
Speaker 4: in there, which I love. But I'm gonna go. I'm

1031
00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:16,919
Speaker 4: gonna go Jennifer Maya.

1032
00:46:17,920 --> 00:46:20,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, Kenny, Casey O'Neil maybe not getting the shine she

1033
00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,479
Speaker 5: deserved over the last several weeks in these longer form

1034
00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:27,560
Speaker 5: flyweight conversations about Aaron Blansfield and Alexa Grosso certainly has

1035
00:46:27,640 --> 00:46:30,320
Speaker 5: that chip on her shoulder. Does feel like a pretty

1036
00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:34,800
Speaker 5: quick turn after a major reconstructive knee surgery. That said O'Neil,

1037
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:36,320
Speaker 5: about a two to one favorite here this weekend.

1038
00:46:36,320 --> 00:46:40,160
Speaker 2: Your thoughts, Yeah, that's the big question mark, right with

1039
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,920
Speaker 2: O'Neill and that knee surgery. It can take or I

1040
00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 2: think it does take like two years, two years and

1041
00:46:46,239 --> 00:46:51,359
Speaker 2: a half if you have a cadaver, you know, installed

1042
00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 2: into your knee for it to be like actually one

1043
00:46:54,800 --> 00:46:58,319
Speaker 2: hundred percent, So that definitely takes time. However, I think

1044
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 2: O'Neil is nasty enough to get through this. This is

1045
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 2: one of those where I may reserve the right to

1046
00:47:05,160 --> 00:47:07,000
Speaker 2: change my pick when I see the weigh ins and

1047
00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 2: some other stuff. But I like Casey O'Neil here, and

1048
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,000
Speaker 2: you know, Brian has a big time point here. With

1049
00:47:13,080 --> 00:47:17,640
Speaker 2: Jennifer Maya, who has you know, faced much tougher competition,

1050
00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,359
Speaker 2: I think she has a good set of skills as

1051
00:47:21,400 --> 00:47:24,360
Speaker 2: well to pose some problems here for O'Neil. But I

1052
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:28,680
Speaker 2: think if O'Neil can utilize that high pressure style and

1053
00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:33,760
Speaker 2: back Maya up, sometimes Maya will shut down her offense

1054
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:37,200
Speaker 2: as well a little bit. So I think that's going

1055
00:47:37,280 --> 00:47:39,360
Speaker 2: to be the case. Let's go with Casey O'Neil.

1056
00:47:40,120 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 5: All right, some dissension on the two women's fights today,

1057
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:44,440
Speaker 5: You love to see it. That brings us to a

1058
00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,160
Speaker 5: featured about one hundred and seventy pounds. Gooder Nelson minus

1059
00:47:47,320 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 5: three point eighty Brian Barberina is plus three ten. Seventeenth

1060
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 5: YOUFC appearance for Barberina. He had a huge twenty twenty two.

1061
00:47:54,560 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 5: He beat Robbie Lawler, beat Matt Brown, did lose to

1062
00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 5: Halfayel Dosanjos in December. Kenny, I'm gonn lead with you

1063
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:03,640
Speaker 5: on this one. Gooder Nelson's still a little bit enigmatic

1064
00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:05,680
Speaker 5: for me, just as far as like, I don't know

1065
00:48:05,719 --> 00:48:08,440
Speaker 5: where his ceiling is because there have been all these

1066
00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:11,280
Speaker 5: injuries and bouts of inactivity. Eleven years on the roster,

1067
00:48:11,480 --> 00:48:16,560
Speaker 5: fourteen UFC fights, hasn't lost since twenty nineteen to Gilberturino Burns,

1068
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,759
Speaker 5: but he's only fought one since twenty nineteen. He beat

1069
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,000
Speaker 5: Takashi Sado, a guy he was prohibitively favored to beat.

1070
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:24,759
Speaker 5: But he's been around. I mean, he made his UFC

1071
00:48:24,880 --> 00:48:27,080
Speaker 5: debut and who's twenty four years of age. So Goodar

1072
00:48:27,160 --> 00:48:30,160
Speaker 5: Nelson again with a bloated number next to his name,

1073
00:48:30,320 --> 00:48:32,320
Speaker 5: minus three eighty against Brian Barbarine.

1074
00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:38,160
Speaker 2: I like gooney here. Yeah, I think I think Gunnar's

1075
00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:42,120
Speaker 2: got that style right, similar to an RDA that's going

1076
00:48:42,160 --> 00:48:44,440
Speaker 2: to post problems for a guy like Brian Barberina. And

1077
00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:47,319
Speaker 2: I know that Barberina said he's been, you know, kind

1078
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:50,160
Speaker 2: of going camp to camp. He's been training more consistently now,

1079
00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:53,360
Speaker 2: and that is one of the toughest dudes I have

1080
00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:57,600
Speaker 2: ever seen compete inside the UFC. I mean, his chin,

1081
00:48:58,040 --> 00:49:03,840
Speaker 2: his durability, his heart. He's an absolute stud, an absolute beast.

1082
00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:07,520
Speaker 2: And if Gunner decides to trade in the pocket, even

1083
00:49:07,600 --> 00:49:11,239
Speaker 2: for just a couple exchanges against Barberina, that would be

1084
00:49:11,280 --> 00:49:13,439
Speaker 2: the worst mistake he could make because Barbarina is gonna

1085
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:16,680
Speaker 2: take over that fight and could potentially knock him out

1086
00:49:16,760 --> 00:49:21,440
Speaker 2: after that. But I think Gunner is gonna, you know,

1087
00:49:21,560 --> 00:49:24,759
Speaker 2: have that wide karate stance, stay on the outside, pick

1088
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,879
Speaker 2: his shots. But all of that really is to get

1089
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:30,600
Speaker 2: the takedown and put Barberina on his back. That that's

1090
00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:33,240
Speaker 2: what he wants, and I think that's what he's ultimately

1091
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 2: going to do there. I'm gonna go with Gunner Nelson here.

1092
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:40,120
Speaker 2: I'm gonna put I'm gonna put an extra unit on

1093
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:44,480
Speaker 2: Gunner as well. I just I like I like his

1094
00:49:44,640 --> 00:49:47,640
Speaker 2: style here. Maybe a little bit of a gamble because

1095
00:49:47,680 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 2: Barbarina is very dangerous and he's hard to put away

1096
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:51,920
Speaker 2: at times, but I like Gunny.

1097
00:49:51,960 --> 00:49:53,759
Speaker 5: Here see what it does to me and Petrie when

1098
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:55,960
Speaker 5: Ken Flow goes to Unit's like, we don't have known

1099
00:49:55,960 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 5: what to do with ourselves. Kenny will also, by the way,

1100
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:00,720
Speaker 5: lead us on the main event coming up here three minutes.

1101
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 5: Brian Patrick, Gunnar Nelson, Brian Barbarina, who he likes.

1102
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:06,880
Speaker 4: I'll tell you what it, Ken Flow, just open up

1103
00:50:06,960 --> 00:50:09,600
Speaker 4: some bucks. He would move so this guy would pay

1104
00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:12,160
Speaker 4: off his house. Listen. I was I was gonna lock

1105
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:14,320
Speaker 4: him up myself, like I love this fight for Gunny.

1106
00:50:14,640 --> 00:50:16,879
Speaker 4: We saw the blueprint with biber on Riena against RDA,

1107
00:50:16,960 --> 00:50:20,000
Speaker 4: which I, Kenny and I both predicted right. R Day

1108
00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:21,920
Speaker 4: is gonna take him out. And people sleep on RDA's

1109
00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:23,839
Speaker 4: jiu jitsu and gon To nelson ju jitsu is great,

1110
00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:26,719
Speaker 4: especially when he's on top. He flows so well. He's

1111
00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,640
Speaker 4: a little undersized one seventy, but he's so dominant on top.

1112
00:50:30,000 --> 00:50:32,200
Speaker 4: This guy had a ground fight with Dami and Mayat lost,

1113
00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:34,360
Speaker 4: but didn't get his neck taken, didn't get his arm

1114
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:36,759
Speaker 4: taken like this guy's special. I remember being a door

1115
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,480
Speaker 4: way back when he was twenty one, twenty two years

1116
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:42,040
Speaker 4: old Hammon on the underground before he made his UFC debut,

1117
00:50:42,080 --> 00:50:44,160
Speaker 4: Like Gunny Nelson is the next big thing or whatever

1118
00:50:44,600 --> 00:50:46,440
Speaker 4: this guy is. And in John's right, did a lot

1119
00:50:46,480 --> 00:50:48,960
Speaker 4: of inconsistency and stuff like that. But I think this

1120
00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:52,040
Speaker 4: is this number is obviously high. I know we're partner

1121
00:50:52,080 --> 00:50:53,920
Speaker 4: with DraftKings. I would love to see DraftKings set a

1122
00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,160
Speaker 4: line for like over three takedowns for Gunny. So I

1123
00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:58,000
Speaker 4: think he can get over three takedowns, maybe even a

1124
00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,640
Speaker 4: Gunny Special prop bet by sub so. I think he's

1125
00:51:00,680 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 4: taken a sub here. I'm with Kenny here. I'm not

1126
00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:05,560
Speaker 4: going to double lock him like Kenny. I'm gonna let

1127
00:51:05,600 --> 00:51:07,440
Speaker 4: Kenny have his moment here. I love when he fucking

1128
00:51:07,800 --> 00:51:09,520
Speaker 4: knots on the table there. I'm not going to steal

1129
00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:11,120
Speaker 4: that shine here. But I'm on Gunny as well.

1130
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,440
Speaker 5: And we can affect change as far as the Draftking

1131
00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:17,000
Speaker 5: sports Book is concerned. Right as Cody says in our

1132
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:18,560
Speaker 5: chat room, we can make that happen. I got a

1133
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:20,879
Speaker 5: direct line at Johnny Avello, the director of the race

1134
00:51:20,920 --> 00:51:23,439
Speaker 5: and sportsbook for DraftKings Sportsbook. So you want a number

1135
00:51:23,480 --> 00:51:26,080
Speaker 5: on the board, Brian Petrie, we can make that happen.

1136
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,520
Speaker 5: Let us get to the co main event, probably the

1137
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:33,800
Speaker 5: fight I was most curious to hear your predictions on today.

1138
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:36,520
Speaker 5: This is a title eliminator in the lightweight division. Raphael

1139
00:51:36,560 --> 00:51:40,040
Speaker 5: Fhazib minus two thirty Justin Geichie plus one ninety five.

1140
00:51:40,120 --> 00:51:43,279
Speaker 5: Sofazibe born in Kazakhstan, fights out of Ozer Baijan by

1141
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:45,680
Speaker 5: way of Thailand. He's won six in a row since

1142
00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 5: dropping his UFC debut. Geichie, of course your former interim champion.

1143
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,000
Speaker 5: I'm not sure I've ever seen plus one ninety five

1144
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:53,880
Speaker 5: next to his name, probably for the Kabib fight it

1145
00:51:54,000 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 5: was even bigger. But uh, Justin Gaichie returning for the

1146
00:51:57,600 --> 00:52:00,160
Speaker 5: first time since the Charles Olivera fight May seven at

1147
00:52:00,160 --> 00:52:02,640
Speaker 5: the last year, does he have enough for Rafael Fhaseia,

1148
00:52:02,680 --> 00:52:05,919
Speaker 5: Brian Patrick or Mike is Hot. This fight was kind

1149
00:52:05,960 --> 00:52:08,439
Speaker 5: of easy for me to break down and pick which

1150
00:52:08,560 --> 00:52:10,640
Speaker 5: scares me? You know what I mean, Johnny your hande

1151
00:52:10,680 --> 00:52:12,560
Speaker 5: gear like, oh, I'm seeing this so right, and You're like,

1152
00:52:12,600 --> 00:52:15,000
Speaker 5: wait a second, should I face myself here? That's how

1153
00:52:15,080 --> 00:52:17,319
Speaker 5: I feel like, because I think, excuse me.

1154
00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:18,640
Speaker 4: Say his name more time so I don't fuck it

1155
00:52:18,719 --> 00:52:22,320
Speaker 4: up physic physie. I think Faziv is the best striker

1156
00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:25,080
Speaker 4: at one fifty five hands down. I think he is clean.

1157
00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:28,520
Speaker 4: I think he is technical volume, a little low cardio

1158
00:52:28,680 --> 00:52:30,719
Speaker 4: question marked a little bit anytime. He throwed over one

1159
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 4: hundred punches with the Bobby Green fight, and he faded

1160
00:52:33,520 --> 00:52:35,719
Speaker 4: bad in that fight. Right justin Gage, he throws a

1161
00:52:35,800 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 4: hundred punches without breaking a sweat. That guy is just

1162
00:52:38,320 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 4: all action all the time. But he's looked so kind

1163
00:52:41,160 --> 00:52:43,600
Speaker 4: of off to me. Right. He gets hurt in every

1164
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,160
Speaker 4: fight nowadays. Chandler had him hurt this last time. He

1165
00:52:46,200 --> 00:52:49,000
Speaker 4: won all there, slept him, dropped him three times with

1166
00:52:49,160 --> 00:52:51,560
Speaker 4: just clean technique. Althoy're obviously one of the best in

1167
00:52:51,600 --> 00:52:55,080
Speaker 4: the world, but Phazive is just clean with everything. His

1168
00:52:55,239 --> 00:52:57,160
Speaker 4: Brave Redell fight was very impressive with me because they

1169
00:52:57,160 --> 00:52:59,520
Speaker 4: were training partners. I think Braverdell used to coach him

1170
00:52:59,560 --> 00:53:02,200
Speaker 4: or something like that. There's some kind of real relationship there,

1171
00:53:02,560 --> 00:53:04,879
Speaker 4: and it was a close fight, competitive fight where Dell

1172
00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:08,240
Speaker 4: was wrestling a little bit, but Fazige just just knocked

1173
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,719
Speaker 4: him out, took him out and made it look effortlessly.

1174
00:53:11,120 --> 00:53:14,000
Speaker 4: This guy's takedown offense is unbelievable ninety two percent. Justin

1175
00:53:14,040 --> 00:53:15,759
Speaker 4: Gaategche does have a takedown in the UFC, so I

1176
00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:17,200
Speaker 4: don't think that's gonna be a problem. But he does

1177
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:21,160
Speaker 4: have wrestling. I'm seeing Phazivee here, Phazige by knockout all

1178
00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:23,920
Speaker 4: day long. That's that's what I'm seeing. I just think

1179
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:25,840
Speaker 4: he's a little too clean. I think Gatege's going to

1180
00:53:26,000 --> 00:53:28,160
Speaker 4: make it ugly. And I'm a Geechee guy. I love

1181
00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:31,000
Speaker 4: Justin Gaigie. I just what I've seen. If he gets

1182
00:53:31,040 --> 00:53:33,640
Speaker 4: in there with like really clean technique, he dips his

1183
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,040
Speaker 4: head too much, he throws a little wild. He likes

1184
00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:39,480
Speaker 4: the inside clinches, and that's where phaziv Is work some

1185
00:53:39,560 --> 00:53:41,800
Speaker 4: of his best work. Those elbows and that knockout of

1186
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:46,160
Speaker 4: Amconno would mean forget about it. This guy's a real problem,

1187
00:53:46,440 --> 00:53:48,239
Speaker 4: and I think this is a coming out party for him.

1188
00:53:48,280 --> 00:53:51,560
Speaker 5: So give me Phyzive's And to underscore the extent to

1189
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 5: which Raphael Phazivee is a problem, Justin Geige is a

1190
00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:56,479
Speaker 5: bigger underdog against this dude than he was against Charles

1191
00:53:56,520 --> 00:53:59,400
Speaker 5: OLIVERA right, and that number has not been bet to

1192
00:53:59,560 --> 00:54:01,719
Speaker 5: a point where that is no longer the case. We

1193
00:54:01,840 --> 00:54:04,360
Speaker 5: did ask a pole question for today's Anakin Florian podcast

1194
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:06,840
Speaker 5: of the four fighters atop the marquee, in whom are

1195
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 5: you most confident to get the win? Forty percent of

1196
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:14,240
Speaker 5: responding say Kamar Usman. Twenty six percent said Rafael Fhaziv, Kenny,

1197
00:54:14,480 --> 00:54:17,560
Speaker 5: your thoughts on Phayziv minus two thirty against Justin Gaigie

1198
00:54:17,600 --> 00:54:18,560
Speaker 5: and the comin event.

1199
00:54:19,120 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 2: Well, Brian's right, Let's let's look at it, right Fhaziv,

1200
00:54:22,200 --> 00:54:27,560
Speaker 2: He's he's younger, he's he's fresher, he's got the better chin.

1201
00:54:28,640 --> 00:54:33,080
Speaker 2: I think he's got more tools on defeet overall. And

1202
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:36,640
Speaker 2: that's exactly why I'm going with Justin Gaigie. I'm going

1203
00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:40,120
Speaker 2: with here. This is what, this is why. Here's the

1204
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:43,759
Speaker 2: only thing, okay, is that I don't care who you are,

1205
00:54:44,000 --> 00:54:48,400
Speaker 2: what you've done. Justin Gaegee has the ability to hold

1206
00:54:48,440 --> 00:54:51,360
Speaker 2: your hand and walk through the garden of punishment with you.

1207
00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:55,120
Speaker 2: Sometimes you get out alive, but many times it's you

1208
00:54:55,280 --> 00:54:58,200
Speaker 2: that is buried in that garden. And I think Kage's

1209
00:54:58,239 --> 00:55:02,239
Speaker 2: gonna find a way to drag physive into a world

1210
00:55:02,280 --> 00:55:05,680
Speaker 2: where he's never been before. He comes from a Muay

1211
00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:08,560
Speaker 2: Thai background, and in moy Thai it's kind of this

1212
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 2: like pacing, and it's this dance and it slowly picks up,

1213
00:55:12,120 --> 00:55:14,360
Speaker 2: and you know, you can kind of coast even it

1214
00:55:14,400 --> 00:55:17,319
Speaker 2: gets very good moy Thai fighters, and you can kind

1215
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:19,560
Speaker 2: of chill. And then the fourth and fifth rounds things

1216
00:55:19,560 --> 00:55:23,200
Speaker 2: start to pick up. There's more clinching. Gay Chief gets

1217
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:27,560
Speaker 2: right to the point and and we're gonna find out.

1218
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:33,600
Speaker 2: And we haven't seen Physive in that kind of pressure environment,

1219
00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:37,919
Speaker 2: high pressure environment where he's exhausted and he's gotta find

1220
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,720
Speaker 2: a way to win. And I can't get that Bobby

1221
00:55:40,800 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 2: Green fight out of my head. That's the problem. If

1222
00:55:44,080 --> 00:55:46,120
Speaker 2: we're straight if we're going straight up and these guys

1223
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:49,080
Speaker 2: are even odds or Physive is up by a little bit,

1224
00:55:49,200 --> 00:55:53,320
Speaker 2: and Gaichee's close, a close underdog, I'm going Physive, but

1225
00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:56,920
Speaker 2: plus one ninety five for Gaichee on a guy who

1226
00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,440
Speaker 2: you know in physife, who does stay in the pocket

1227
00:55:59,480 --> 00:56:02,040
Speaker 2: and does he had hit at times you stay in

1228
00:56:02,120 --> 00:56:03,600
Speaker 2: there and you take a hook or two. We're a

1229
00:56:03,680 --> 00:56:06,360
Speaker 2: right hand from justin Gaichee. He puts you to sleep.

1230
00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:07,719
Speaker 2: Gimme Gaichee here.

1231
00:56:08,040 --> 00:56:08,480
Speaker 6: I like it.

1232
00:56:08,560 --> 00:56:11,600
Speaker 2: And Gaichee always surprises us when we least expect it.

1233
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,640
Speaker 2: Give me Justin Gaigee for some extra dog fire.

1234
00:56:14,640 --> 00:56:17,120
Speaker 5: I mean, we could play that for Justin Geichee actually

1235
00:56:18,480 --> 00:56:22,319
Speaker 5: and see it compels into victory. All right, Ken Flo,

1236
00:56:22,480 --> 00:56:24,480
Speaker 5: keep that energy up. We're going right back to you here.

1237
00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:28,160
Speaker 5: Kamar Usman minus two forty Leon Edwards plus two hundred.

1238
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,919
Speaker 5: Kamar Usman was fifteen and zher to start his UFC career.

1239
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,719
Speaker 5: He was making his sixth welterweight title defense when these

1240
00:56:35,760 --> 00:56:38,000
Speaker 5: two met for that second time at UFC two seventy

1241
00:56:38,040 --> 00:56:41,000
Speaker 5: eight last August. He was moments away from breaking that

1242
00:56:41,120 --> 00:56:44,440
Speaker 5: Anderson silver record and everything else, and we all know

1243
00:56:44,560 --> 00:56:48,279
Speaker 5: what happened thereafter. Now Edward's the champion, making the first

1244
00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,439
Speaker 5: defense of his title here at the two, about three

1245
00:56:50,520 --> 00:56:54,800
Speaker 5: hours from Birmingham, England. Kamar Usman, Leon Edwards, who wins it?

1246
00:56:56,520 --> 00:56:58,640
Speaker 2: This is a tougher fight for me to pick in

1247
00:56:58,680 --> 00:57:03,640
Speaker 2: a lot of ways than physiv. Uzman has a style

1248
00:57:03,800 --> 00:57:06,720
Speaker 2: that will always give a guy like Leon Edwards trouble.

1249
00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:10,480
Speaker 2: I think that if there's one guy who can come

1250
00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:13,759
Speaker 2: back from a devastating knockout in round five, it is

1251
00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:17,640
Speaker 2: kamara Uzman. I don't think he's going to have all

1252
00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:19,960
Speaker 2: those doubts that I think a lot of other fighters

1253
00:57:20,080 --> 00:57:22,320
Speaker 2: would have, or that hesitancy that I think a lot

1254
00:57:22,360 --> 00:57:26,080
Speaker 2: of other fighters have. Usman is a champion for a reason.

1255
00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:30,280
Speaker 2: He has that champion mindset. Whether he wins or loses,

1256
00:57:30,360 --> 00:57:32,480
Speaker 2: He's always going to have that mindset and he will

1257
00:57:32,520 --> 00:57:34,760
Speaker 2: always have my respect as one of the greatest wealth

1258
00:57:34,840 --> 00:57:38,560
Speaker 2: weights to ever do it. I think his wrestling is

1259
00:57:38,640 --> 00:57:41,520
Speaker 2: a big time problem. His ability to grind and win

1260
00:57:41,720 --> 00:57:44,680
Speaker 2: rounds is a problem. He has a very educated jab,

1261
00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:49,800
Speaker 2: but you know, he doesn't have that potency of a

1262
00:57:49,920 --> 00:57:53,600
Speaker 2: submission game or I don't think not to get someone

1263
00:57:53,640 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 2: like Edwards where he's got a striking game, that is

1264
00:57:56,080 --> 00:58:00,440
Speaker 2: going to be that difficult for Edwards to figure. I

1265
00:58:00,520 --> 00:58:04,800
Speaker 2: think Edwards is a extremely technical fighter in all assets

1266
00:58:04,880 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 2: and all aspects he I think he is a very

1267
00:58:09,600 --> 00:58:13,080
Speaker 2: slick striker who can get Uzman to throw and miss

1268
00:58:13,400 --> 00:58:17,040
Speaker 2: and counter. I think Edwards is going to have a

1269
00:58:17,200 --> 00:58:20,160
Speaker 2: renewed sense of confidence coming off of this win over

1270
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,840
Speaker 2: kamara Uzman. I think that he had a great start

1271
00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:27,640
Speaker 2: to that fight against kamara Uzman, and I think you

1272
00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 2: know it being at high altitude. I think it favors

1273
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:33,640
Speaker 2: I think it favors Leon Edwards. The fact that it's

1274
00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:36,720
Speaker 2: not at high altitude anymore because Kamara Usman again, correct

1275
00:58:36,720 --> 00:58:38,800
Speaker 2: me if I'm wrong. He was, you know, training at

1276
00:58:38,840 --> 00:58:42,360
Speaker 2: high altitude in Denver, also in Utah as well for

1277
00:58:42,800 --> 00:58:46,000
Speaker 2: you know a bit. So I think that I don't

1278
00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:49,280
Speaker 2: know Edwards had you know, a lot of disadvantages heading

1279
00:58:49,320 --> 00:58:52,360
Speaker 2: into that fight, the travel, He's got his hometown there.

1280
00:58:53,040 --> 00:58:55,760
Speaker 2: I think his preparation has been on point for this one.

1281
00:58:56,280 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 2: And I am going with Leon Edwards to win this fight. Again,

1282
00:59:03,440 --> 00:59:05,520
Speaker 2: It's not an easy pick for me. I would not

1283
00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:08,040
Speaker 2: be surprised to see Kamara win this one, but I

1284
00:59:08,120 --> 00:59:10,400
Speaker 2: think we have a different guy after this fight, and

1285
00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:14,040
Speaker 2: Leon Edwards, I think he's got he's got a certain something.

1286
00:59:14,120 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 2: Let's put it this way, winning in that fashion the

1287
00:59:16,520 --> 00:59:19,640
Speaker 2: way that he did and it being in the UK.

1288
00:59:21,080 --> 00:59:26,160
Speaker 2: I like Leon here very interesting. Brian Petrie, you will

1289
00:59:26,200 --> 00:59:29,479
Speaker 2: have the final word Kamara Usman minus two forty, Leon

1290
00:59:29,600 --> 00:59:31,920
Speaker 2: Edwards plus two hundred right now in DraftKings sportsbook. Who

1291
00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:33,520
Speaker 2: wins the Welts Away Championship of the World.

1292
00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,880
Speaker 4: So it's hard enough falling Kenny let alone. Gaigee and

1293
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:39,920
Speaker 4: then now he's picking Leon Edwards. I'm sitting here going on,

1294
00:59:39,960 --> 00:59:41,440
Speaker 4: it's an easy fight for you to pick. He goes, Yeah,

1295
00:59:41,440 --> 00:59:43,880
Speaker 4: I'm picking the underdog. Gaigee, take a big old dump

1296
00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:44,640
Speaker 4: on BP here.

1297
00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:45,080
Speaker 2: I love it.

1298
00:59:45,200 --> 00:59:49,120
Speaker 4: If icking love it, listen. I'm a Kamara Usman guy.

1299
00:59:49,280 --> 00:59:50,440
Speaker 4: I have been since day one.

1300
00:59:50,600 --> 00:59:51,240
Speaker 2: I love the guy.

1301
00:59:51,320 --> 00:59:53,439
Speaker 4: I don't know why he gets so much shit. People

1302
00:59:53,480 --> 00:59:55,880
Speaker 4: say he's corny. I kind of know. He talks like

1303
00:59:55,960 --> 00:59:58,479
Speaker 4: an R and B guy. Sometimes he's got a little

1304
00:59:58,560 --> 01:00:00,200
Speaker 4: usher thing going on and Pep were like out of

1305
01:00:00,240 --> 01:00:03,680
Speaker 4: the corny. I love his mindset, his mental his skill. Well,

1306
01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:05,200
Speaker 4: I judge what I see in the cage, and he's

1307
01:00:05,200 --> 01:00:06,600
Speaker 4: got he's got swagger for day. I mean, the guy

1308
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:08,200
Speaker 4: knows how to put an outfit together. Let's just put

1309
01:00:08,440 --> 01:00:11,000
Speaker 4: you know what I mean, no doubt. But the first

1310
01:00:11,120 --> 01:00:13,480
Speaker 4: the first fight obviously was was they both were young

1311
01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:16,880
Speaker 4: in the career. Wrestling happened. Second fight, Leon got that takedown,

1312
01:00:16,880 --> 01:00:19,400
Speaker 4: got mount won the first round. Very interesting there. Leon

1313
01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:22,200
Speaker 4: had relied after the Kamara fight, had relied on wrestling

1314
01:00:22,200 --> 01:00:23,520
Speaker 4: a lot of his fights. You know, we saw a

1315
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:25,520
Speaker 4: lot more grappling out of him, and then you know,

1316
01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:28,440
Speaker 4: two through four, Usman shut him down, and then Cardio

1317
01:00:28,440 --> 01:00:31,320
Speaker 4: obviously is king. No one faded like even though uz

1318
01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:35,040
Speaker 4: Or Edwards was dejected because I felt like he felt

1319
01:00:35,080 --> 01:00:37,920
Speaker 4: flat that night, his Cardio was still there. I mean,

1320
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 4: if you were dead, Carter, you're not throwing that high

1321
01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:42,600
Speaker 4: kicked away through it, right, And this is interesting. I've

1322
01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:45,360
Speaker 4: always backed Usman. I've always won money on Usman, right.

1323
01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:45,920
Speaker 2: I have.

1324
01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:47,680
Speaker 4: I just I bet every single one of his fights

1325
01:00:47,840 --> 01:00:50,080
Speaker 4: blindly take Kuzma. I like the guy. This has thrown

1326
01:00:50,120 --> 01:00:52,200
Speaker 4: up some trepidation for me. This is a big pause

1327
01:00:52,280 --> 01:00:54,960
Speaker 4: for me because Leon Edwards is a lot better than

1328
01:00:55,000 --> 01:00:56,560
Speaker 4: I gave him credit for the first fight, the first

1329
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 4: fight in my own personal life. Max bet Usman and

1330
01:01:00,200 --> 01:01:02,360
Speaker 4: you know that fifth round knockout. The only thing that

1331
01:01:02,440 --> 01:01:04,320
Speaker 4: saved it was John to me, yeah, I lost a

1332
01:01:04,360 --> 01:01:07,600
Speaker 4: couple hundred bucks, but John's beautiful call, which is one

1333
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:09,920
Speaker 4: of the best calls ever saved it for me because

1334
01:01:09,920 --> 01:01:12,760
Speaker 4: I'm like, oh, this is special. And then obviously Leon's

1335
01:01:12,800 --> 01:01:17,880
Speaker 4: post fight headshot Bang Dad is amazing. Listen, Kenny broke

1336
01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:21,120
Speaker 4: it down perfectly. Technically, I can't do that. I can't

1337
01:01:21,160 --> 01:01:22,440
Speaker 4: do it. Ken flow does I'm just going to go

1338
01:01:22,520 --> 01:01:24,640
Speaker 4: with my gut, and my gut says this could be

1339
01:01:24,640 --> 01:01:26,160
Speaker 4: a lot closer a fight. But I think when you

1340
01:01:26,240 --> 01:01:28,600
Speaker 4: get a close fight like that, I'm gonna lean on wrestling,

1341
01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:31,080
Speaker 4: and I'm an lean on the guy who's proven that

1342
01:01:31,240 --> 01:01:34,520
Speaker 4: he can go five rounds throwing over one hundred strikes.

1343
01:01:34,760 --> 01:01:37,520
Speaker 4: He threw eighty three in the first Leon fight. I

1344
01:01:37,600 --> 01:01:39,800
Speaker 4: think he needs to double that up. He looked really

1345
01:01:39,840 --> 01:01:42,800
Speaker 4: good in the clinches. That's where he did his best work, bodywork,

1346
01:01:42,880 --> 01:01:46,080
Speaker 4: elbows when Leon was against the cage, and Leon's gonna

1347
01:01:46,120 --> 01:01:47,800
Speaker 4: come out like a bat out of hell in front

1348
01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:51,040
Speaker 4: of his hometown crowd. But I love the way Usman's

1349
01:01:51,040 --> 01:01:53,720
Speaker 4: carrying himself. I love the mental I love everything he's saying.

1350
01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,960
Speaker 4: He handled that loss better than anybody I know. You

1351
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,640
Speaker 4: know what I mean? Or Mmm, such class and I'm

1352
01:02:00,680 --> 01:02:02,600
Speaker 4: gonna go with Uzman. But I'm excited. The line's a

1353
01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:04,400
Speaker 4: little wide. I thought we were gonna get a way

1354
01:02:04,480 --> 01:02:07,160
Speaker 4: better number, for sure, So I am a little unsure

1355
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:10,480
Speaker 4: about the line, but I'm gonna take Guzman all right.

1356
01:02:10,480 --> 01:02:12,120
Speaker 5: Good job, fellas. I can't wait to get over there.

1357
01:02:12,200 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 5: Last time I called a fight on uk soil was

1358
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,720
Speaker 5: October twenty six, twenty thirteen, so it's been almost ten years.

1359
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:19,920
Speaker 5: We're very excited. We got to get on out of here.

1360
01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:22,040
Speaker 5: But don't forget. Another episode of the Ana Complorent podcast
