00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:52,920
Speaker 1: Hey, I gotta ask you something, man, I saw some

19
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,920
Speaker 1: ship the other day. It's crazy. I saw like a

20
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,319
Speaker 1: video of you, like they were like trying to make

21
00:00:58,360 --> 00:00:59,920
Speaker 1: fun of you with that hople Have you seen that video,

22
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: which like that Homer Simpsons video?

23
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: Yeah?

24
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: What is that?

25
00:01:04,440 --> 00:01:06,400
Speaker 2: And it's so funny that I actually did the Simpsons

26
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 2: predicted it?

27
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they predicted it like they predict everything.

28
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: They did, and they predict me hitting Strickland with the

29
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:13,960
Speaker 2: head on the hip.

30
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 1: You hit him in his ass with you forehead.

31
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that'll teach him.

32
00:01:19,640 --> 00:01:20,559
Speaker 1: How did that happen?

33
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 2: Guys?

34
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,520
Speaker 1: I'm with the Middleway champion Drenkers du plus C as

35
00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 1: he gets ready to finish championship another time, this time

36
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,959
Speaker 1: against Amzat Chimayav Dreks. Thank you for checking it with

37
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:37,120
Speaker 1: me again, Israel out of Sonya Sean Strickland, Sean Strickland.

38
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:42,720
Speaker 1: Every time you're the underdog, but every time you're getting

39
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: more and more dominant. What do you make of that

40
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 1: where you always made the underdog?

41
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:48,160
Speaker 2: Yeah?

42
00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 3: I think, uh, you know they say that thirty increase

43
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 3: when you become a champion.

44
00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,559
Speaker 2: For me, it was more than that. I think maybe really,

45
00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,280
Speaker 2: once I became champion, I just loved it.

46
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 3: I just loved and I've been champion for many years

47
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 3: outside of the UFC, and once I.

48
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 2: Tasted that gold, I just got hungry to be great.

49
00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:10,399
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it at the top.

50
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,560
Speaker 3: And I think the second Stricklent fight, for example, I

51
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 3: knew Streackent wasn't going.

52
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 2: To change his game man he is.

53
00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:18,600
Speaker 3: He loves his game plan and it is effective. So

54
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 3: and he's been doing it for so long. There's no

55
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 3: way he's going to change it without a sun. Yet

56
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,799
Speaker 3: it was a bit different because you have a guy

57
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 3: that can come in there. You know he's going to strike,

58
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 3: and you have to be able to handle that because

59
00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 3: you can't go into that fight saying I actually take

60
00:02:33,440 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 3: him down.

61
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 2: What if you don't get him done?

62
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 3: So I think, And then getting comfortable with fighting these names,

63
00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 3: getting comfortable with saying, listen, I can do the five round,

64
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,680
Speaker 3: especially going that five round strictly the first time and

65
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:47,600
Speaker 3: felt great. Then that gives you the confidence of go

66
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 3: out there and throw man, do what you've got to do.

67
00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:52,080
Speaker 3: And every fight I get more at home, and every

68
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 3: fight I get more comfortable in the UFC. I've had

69
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 3: nine UFC fights now, but only about six fights in.

70
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 2: I started really feeling at home.

71
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,880
Speaker 3: I started feeling at home, so I started to get

72
00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 3: the performances that I would give in the gym. I'm

73
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 3: starting to see glimpses of that in the octagon.

74
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:10,960
Speaker 1: When I got to go back to that second Stong

75
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,080
Speaker 1: Stricken fight. Were you surprised at how that fight played

76
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 1: out because it looked like you almost put him, like

77
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: he literally turned into a shell of himself inside of

78
00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: the octagon. Were you surprised, being as how loud he

79
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: is and how like forty is and all of his thoughts,

80
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,799
Speaker 1: it seemed like you just like he Honestly, it seemed

81
00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 1: like he was a shell of himself, like he had

82
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 1: no answers for what you were doing, Like he just

83
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: even as coaches. Did you go back You've watched the fight.

84
00:03:34,760 --> 00:03:37,480
Speaker 1: Clearly the coaches were so frustrated because they were telling

85
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 1: him what to do, but he seemed to have like

86
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: no ability to kind of even get started. Were you surprised?

87
00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I have to be honest with your

88
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 3: strictent is a great fighter. But if you figure him out,

89
00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: they you figure him out. I think strictly what he does,

90
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: it's worked for him. Obviously, he became a champion, he's

91
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 3: beaten the base and after the first fight. The problem

92
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,000
Speaker 3: with the second fight is it wasn't Stricklands or not.

93
00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:02,680
Speaker 3: He did exactly what he did in the first fight.

94
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,000
Speaker 3: There was a year in between the first and the

95
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 3: second fight, and once we've been in there, I just

96
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 3: knew the adjustments we I mean I was in there

97
00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 3: with the man for twenty five minutes yeah, we had

98
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 3: to make the adjustments. I'm not going to walk through

99
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,160
Speaker 3: that jab the same whereas I did that first fight now,

100
00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 3: and knowing that is how he fights, knowing that he

101
00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: prioritizes defense.

102
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:27,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that is what we saw in the second fight.

103
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,840
Speaker 3: And his coaches said to him third round, they went

104
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,159
Speaker 3: out and they said, you're doing the same things you

105
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,559
Speaker 3: did in the first fight, and the fight is pulling away.

106
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 1: And the first fight was closer. The first it was

107
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,719
Speaker 1: a first fight was closed. Second fight you lose the

108
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: next round, you're down three zero. So whereas the first

109
00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: fight you were doing the same thing, but they were

110
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 1: like hard to judge rounds. This time he's clearly winning

111
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 1: the rounds.

112
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 3: And then you also have to remember in the first fight,

113
00:04:51,960 --> 00:04:54,640
Speaker 3: I've never been five rounds fighting a guy like Strickland

114
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 3: who can go five rounds and you know that, and

115
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,159
Speaker 3: the guy who likes to go forward. So you have

116
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:03,719
Speaker 3: that in your mind because Canna, you know in the

117
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 3: gym I can go five rounds full speed. But in

118
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,360
Speaker 3: the fight, and I went in there and the first

119
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 3: two rounds was almost no. Maybe the nerves are fighting

120
00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:15,080
Speaker 3: for your first world title, not figuring I haven't figured

121
00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:17,520
Speaker 3: them out. Yet he's jab is tricky. By the second fight.

122
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:18,760
Speaker 3: When I went in there, I knew what he's going

123
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,240
Speaker 3: to do. I knew how he fights. The only surprise

124
00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 3: he could have put in there was it was to

125
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 3: shoot for a takedown, and that would have been great.

126
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 3: But yeah, I mean that is that is what it's about.

127
00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 3: I think it's considerly getting better and the sport. I mean,

128
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 3: look at the paper view events from one month to

129
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 3: the other. It's just so everybody's getting so good. You

130
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 3: have to go with the sport the whole time.

131
00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:40,080
Speaker 1: So I was talking to Chill the other day and

132
00:05:40,120 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 1: he tells his story about you wrestling with the South

133
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 1: African Greco Roman team. Is that true? Did you come

134
00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: to the United States with that team to the Olympic

135
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: Training Center?

136
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,479
Speaker 2: No? I heard that that is.

137
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 3: It with these guys in South Africa. But I didn't

138
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 3: come to the Colorado's rings.

139
00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:06,479
Speaker 2: I didn't. No, I didn't know. But believing him, yeah,

140
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: but I mean, that's that's on you. That's on you.

141
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: Why won't you just like say something be like not true.

142
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,040
Speaker 1: You just go in the comment and go that's not true.

143
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 3: Because I mean, if I have to correct every media

144
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 3: out there that took some ship.

145
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: I also said that you couldn't score takedowns.

146
00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.

147
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:24,159
Speaker 1: Don't correct me anymore. I'm doubt you no more.

148
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,039
Speaker 3: And the thing is, it's when sometimes people say things

149
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,480
Speaker 3: like that you get in to say what I mean,

150
00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:32,640
Speaker 3: I don't even know where it comes from. It's not

151
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:33,240
Speaker 3: even remote.

152
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: Do you remember the first time you said, watch my

153
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,280
Speaker 1: takedowns this weekend, and then they were better, and in

154
00:06:38,360 --> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: the next fight it was better, Like you just kept

155
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 1: getting better because you remember I was making funny because

156
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,479
Speaker 1: you you tripped the underhooks side.

157
00:06:45,040 --> 00:06:46,919
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I got the trip you did, I know

158
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,040
Speaker 3: it still, yeah, but I mean I got the trip.

159
00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 1: Got drink is like, but now you do it the

160
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 1: right way.

161
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 3: And why would anybody defend it? Because why would anybody

162
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:55,360
Speaker 3: do it?

163
00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,160
Speaker 1: Because no, Oh so you're just smarter than Oh okay,

164
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:01,200
Speaker 1: so you do it because they don't expect it.

165
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 2: Do you know how to defend the overex side trip?

166
00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 3: I do?

167
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: Okay, So it's just a matter of who falls a

168
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 1: certain way.

169
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: There you go, and then he does it if we

170
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 2: get back up.

171
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:18,560
Speaker 1: That makes sense. But see, but now you're actually tripping

172
00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:19,840
Speaker 1: the overhek side.

173
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 2: I saw you, I can.

174
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: Maybe mix it up. No weapons, so you and now

175
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:30,040
Speaker 1: putting together. Man, hats off to you because so many

176
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,200
Speaker 1: people right like that that video? Right, Oh well is

177
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:34,240
Speaker 1: he good? Is he not good?

178
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 2: No?

179
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:38,880
Speaker 1: He's very really he's very fucking good. Like acknowledge that

180
00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: you're putting together a great title reign now right, this

181
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:46,040
Speaker 1: could be your third defense. How gratifying and satisfying is

182
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 1: it to just really prove people wrong and show that

183
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,679
Speaker 1: my style. My style works for me, and it works

184
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:58,120
Speaker 1: at the highest level. It might not look like Alex

185
00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: or it might not look like is he, but it

186
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 1: works for me. Like how good does that feel? To

187
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 1: constantly be proving people wrong and finally feel like now

188
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,000
Speaker 1: people are coming around drakers. It's not what it used

189
00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: to be. People are like, yeah, well, DP is really

190
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:13,440
Speaker 1: really good.

191
00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 2: Man.

192
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:16,720
Speaker 3: I said this in the beginning, you know, after the

193
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:18,800
Speaker 3: Robert White get fight, because there's only one way to

194
00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 3: know how good you are, and that's going after the

195
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 3: best and beating them. So after that fight, I went,

196
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,960
Speaker 3: I said, yeah, people are critiquing my style so hot

197
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 3: that when they should be taking notes because otherwise they're

198
00:08:31,640 --> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 3: going to play catch up for a very long time.

199
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. The longer they way, the longer it's going to take.

200
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 3: And I think that's what's happening now is people are

201
00:08:37,559 --> 00:08:42,040
Speaker 3: starting to acknowledge that. Listen, it looks weird because it's

202
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 3: not the norm, it's not what we know. Any change

203
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,680
Speaker 3: is weird for people. People don't understand when it's something.

204
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 2: They don't like it.

205
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 3: And it's not about proving people wrong. That gives me

206
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,559
Speaker 3: no satisfaction. It's about proving my style, my work, and

207
00:08:57,679 --> 00:09:00,760
Speaker 3: my team, my coach, the stuff that we been believing

208
00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:04,319
Speaker 3: in for the last thirteen years. That to prove that right,

209
00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 3: to prove the people that believe in me, and that's

210
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 3: putting so much effort to get me to where I

211
00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:14,079
Speaker 3: am now. Hearing all those comments from guys like you,

212
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 3: from guys at the top that's been at the top,

213
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:17,160
Speaker 3: saying this is the wrong way.

214
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,559
Speaker 2: You can't fight like that, it's not good, and.

215
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,520
Speaker 3: Then going out there and and and keeping that belief,

216
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,520
Speaker 3: keeping that belief because now you want to change it,

217
00:09:24,760 --> 00:09:26,240
Speaker 3: and a lot of people try to change it, and

218
00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:27,680
Speaker 3: that's the wrong mindset.

219
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:31,640
Speaker 1: But you didn't change change. You changed our way of thinking.

220
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 1: Absolutely right. You may have to believe in what you do.

221
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 1: You've actually made everybody think, wait, maybe he is doing

222
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 1: something different. And that's what I've gained an appreciation for

223
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: your style now because of that, right, like watching you compete.

224
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,440
Speaker 1: And also I'm like, this dude has to be unbelievably strong,

225
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: like like, how much do you bitch press?

226
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,920
Speaker 2: To be honestly, don't make you strong?

227
00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:55,199
Speaker 1: Deadlift is can you do pull ups?

228
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:55,719
Speaker 2: Different? Yeah?

229
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: Put up? How many pull ups can you do?

230
00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: I don't know, but probably like twenty do?

231
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,440
Speaker 1: I did pull ups the other day and I was

232
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,240
Speaker 1: doing like I did like five. Then I started jump,

233
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,959
Speaker 1: but I started doing jumping pull ups where I'm just

234
00:10:08,040 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 1: jumping in the slowery. I could not lift my arm

235
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 1: for two days. My shoulders were stuck down. I could

236
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 1: not get my arms pass my shoulders for two days.

237
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:22,079
Speaker 1: Why grip it is the lat It's like.

238
00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 3: The last that is true.

239
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 2: But I honestly believe that said. Some guys have.

240
00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:32,440
Speaker 3: Power, and some guys have strength, and the one you

241
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 3: cannot train, you cannot train strength, No, you have it

242
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:35,920
Speaker 3: or you're done.

243
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 2: And power you can train for.

244
00:10:37,440 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 1: You must have strength because when you grab these guys,

245
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,079
Speaker 1: they seem almost like lost in it a little bit.

246
00:10:43,640 --> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 2: In South Africa.

247
00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:46,679
Speaker 1: Call it what is it?

248
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 3: That is Afrikaans word for while I'm strung Buddha Krah?

249
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,080
Speaker 2: Yes, did I say it right?

250
00:10:52,160 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 1: Yeah?

251
00:10:52,640 --> 00:11:01,319

00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 1: Hamzat Chimaia Right, he's the Boogeyman. We have conversations about

282
00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:40,360
Speaker 1: why he's the boogeyman. Most people, since we were children,

283
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: we have been told the Boogeyman comes at night and

284
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,400
Speaker 1: he's scary. You want to avoid the Boogeyman. You don't

285
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:50,280
Speaker 1: want to deal with him. You you put your head under

286
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,480
Speaker 1: the cover. If the boogeyman's in the room with you

287
00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 1: as a little boy, you're calling them out while everybody

288
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:59,079
Speaker 1: else is putting their heads under the covers. You, as

289
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,520
Speaker 1: the champion, walk to the post by prep conference and

290
00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 1: say to Maya's next why I.

291
00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 3: Have to be honest with you. Every since the day

292
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,760
Speaker 3: I started the sport, I wanted greatness. That was what

293
00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 3: That's what I was chasing. I never chased money. I

294
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,080
Speaker 3: never chased fame. I never if this is so different,

295
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 3: If this sport was not paying, I would be struggling

296
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:22,720
Speaker 3: to get by.

297
00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:24,400
Speaker 1: To be honest with let me ask you this champ,

298
00:13:25,320 --> 00:13:28,839
Speaker 1: I love that that point right, he said, the belt

299
00:13:28,840 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to him. No, it's about the money. Can

300
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 1: you guys have different motivations and still fight at the

301
00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: same rate, right, like, at the same level, because if

302
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,720
Speaker 1: you're doing it more that love And he's literally telling

303
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,640
Speaker 1: me that he's not doing he wants the money, you know, Like,

304
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,000
Speaker 1: can you fight at the same level when there's such

305
00:13:49,000 --> 00:13:50,360
Speaker 1: a difference in the approach?

306
00:13:50,520 --> 00:13:52,600
Speaker 3: You can, But you can't fight me with that as

307
00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 3: your motivation. You will be paying all that money to

308
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,240
Speaker 3: get out of there. If you're in there with me

309
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,800
Speaker 3: for five rounds, if the money is your motivation, that

310
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,240
Speaker 3: motivation monkey will drive away very quickly.

311
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 2: Money.

312
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 3: There's no amount of money that's gonna keep you in

313
00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: that fight. When I'm in there willing to give my

314
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:15,280
Speaker 3: life to win. There's money can't buy that. And there's

315
00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:17,200
Speaker 3: only one thing. It has to be bigger than you.

316
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 3: Money is not bigger than me. Passion, legacy and achievement.

317
00:14:24,040 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 3: That's bigger than me. Where my country's flag and being

318
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:30,160
Speaker 3: making history of my country, bringing that bout back home.

319
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 2: It's not about about It's about.

320
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:35,880
Speaker 3: Bringing that victory home, representing my country, my people, my team,

321
00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 3: my family, my crest, my kids. One day are going

322
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:43,360
Speaker 3: to look at that. That is worth more than any

323
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,560
Speaker 3: amount of money. And that's what I fight for when

324
00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 3: I go out there, to be remembered forever.

325
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:53,000
Speaker 1: What what when you guys break down, SHAMAIAV? What makes

326
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: them so dangerous? I mean, it's it's the start, right,

327
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,120
Speaker 1: It's a takedown. It's the aggressiveness, it's the grappling. Is

328
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:02,840
Speaker 1: there anything that I'm missing, like because I don't look

329
00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 1: at him as an opponent, right, I've never had to.

330
00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 1: But when you as his opponent, watch him and your

331
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: coaches outside of the fast start, the quick takedown, the

332
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:16,360
Speaker 1: avalanche coming downhill, what is there to hamsat your mind

333
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 1: that makes them so dangerous or do you even view

334
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:20,240
Speaker 1: him as dangerous?

335
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,480
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I think he's an incredibly dangerous opponent. I think

336
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,720
Speaker 3: he has the striking to put you down with one strike.

337
00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 3: He has enough power for that. He has the wrestling

338
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:32,920
Speaker 3: to fall back on. If the striking go south and underground,

339
00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,800
Speaker 3: he can do it. Oh, He's an all around fighter

340
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 3: with that. He's never lost, so he has grown used

341
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:43,800
Speaker 3: to winning, and I think his whole mindset it works

342
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: around confidence in training within his team. This man does

343
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:52,360
Speaker 3: not lose in training. I don't think he does. I've

344
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 3: only heard he doesn't. And that makes him dangerous because

345
00:15:57,520 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 3: in his mind he only wins.

346
00:15:59,080 --> 00:15:59,920
Speaker 1: You have to teach him.

347
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 3: You have to teach him how to lose him. That's

348
00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,000
Speaker 3: why I'm here because I know what it's like to

349
00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,360
Speaker 3: lose in training every single day. I have felt defeat

350
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 3: in the professional era as well, and it sucks. Giving

351
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:16,760
Speaker 3: up when you know what it feels like to lose

352
00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:18,680
Speaker 3: is a lot harder.

353
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:19,400
Speaker 2: And giving up.

354
00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:22,360
Speaker 3: If you don't know, maybe it's not that bad. But

355
00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 3: Humsad is dangerous because he goes out there and he

356
00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:28,360
Speaker 3: believes that he can do what he wants to. He

357
00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:33,280
Speaker 3: is that guy in the school yard who does whatever

358
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:35,960
Speaker 3: he wants to and he doesn't get into trouble. Well,

359
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 3: I'm the other guy who just got into the school

360
00:16:38,840 --> 00:16:40,800
Speaker 3: and you're not going to get your way with me.

361
00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,800
Speaker 3: And that is why this is such a great fight.

362
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:46,640
Speaker 3: You have two bullies's going out there to see who's

363
00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:47,320
Speaker 3: the man on the block.

364
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:49,360
Speaker 1: Yes, so you saw you walked into the school as

365
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: the new kid and go, oh okay, I see the alpha.

366
00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: I want to go and take my place it.

367
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 2: There can be only one alpha and that's me.

368
00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:58,360
Speaker 1: So how do you teach him that this weekend? Like,

369
00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: what do you have to do early? Right, because a

370
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: lot of people believe that it's early. Hams up late?

371
00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 3: Drake is how from us has no gas.

372
00:17:08,840 --> 00:17:09,879
Speaker 2: He needs to finish his fight.

373
00:17:09,760 --> 00:17:12,479
Speaker 1: In the first That was another thing you were you

374
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: were mad before a couple of things before you were

375
00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: doing it.

376
00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 2: You're like, you know, like that, I just keep on going.

377
00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, you still get His mouth is wide open. He

378
00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:25,800
Speaker 1: looks exhausting. You're like, I was never tired.

379
00:17:25,960 --> 00:17:29,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, well I was tired, but just everybody's tired. Everybody's tired,

380
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:32,680
Speaker 3: But I wasn't dying. There were a few fights. I mean,

381
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 3: I would talk about that Terry Brunson fight right after that.

382
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 3: I was I was tired, I was dead, But I

383
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,080
Speaker 3: mean the pace was also ridiculous.

384
00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: And what about whenever you hit Derek Brunson, he was

385
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:46,040
Speaker 1: just laying on the ground with his hands like, I'm like, lock.

386
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 3: Your face laying there And funny enough, Brunson, you know

387
00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 3: that first round he's gonna come yeah, full speed, and

388
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,000
Speaker 3: he's done that to so many guys, and I just

389
00:17:58,080 --> 00:17:59,840
Speaker 3: knew it. I was like, Okay, let's do it that way.

390
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,440
Speaker 3: Second round. We're still going to be there third round too.

391
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,920
Speaker 3: And but this fight is very similar in that way.

392
00:18:06,960 --> 00:18:09,280
Speaker 3: I think a mistake people make this day go into

393
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,680
Speaker 3: a defensive mind seeds when they fight hundred, don't get

394
00:18:12,720 --> 00:18:13,240
Speaker 3: taken down.

395
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:15,359
Speaker 2: Don't get taken down.

396
00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,320
Speaker 3: And if he comes move away from him, try and

397
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,200
Speaker 3: run away and not get taken down. You cannot let

398
00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:25,000
Speaker 3: that happen because in his mind, he already knows you

399
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 3: don't want to wrestle with him. In his mind, he

400
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 3: already knows he's gonna get you eventually.

401
00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:30,560
Speaker 2: That gate is locked.

402
00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:33,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, you have to go out Dan, So what if

403
00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 3: you get taken down, get back up? That is it's

404
00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 3: part of the game. But you cannot go out there

405
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,240
Speaker 3: and defend. That's not how you win to fight. You

406
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,240
Speaker 3: go out there and you attack.

407
00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, so, champ, what does this weekend look like for you?

408
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: Sold out Arena, Chicago, Illinois? Another title defense? You win this.

409
00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: He's starting to get into the conversation with some of

410
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 1: the greatest middleweights of all time, like what does Saturday

411
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: night look like for you?

412
00:18:56,720 --> 00:18:56,880
Speaker 2: Man?

413
00:18:56,920 --> 00:19:01,280
Speaker 3: I'm walking out to the United States, like they say,

414
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 3: the home Michael Jordan Bolt.

415
00:19:03,920 --> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 1: The championships one here, that is it.

416
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 3: I mean the history and there I saw that statue

417
00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,159
Speaker 3: with said the greatest that ever was the greatest they

418
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,639
Speaker 3: will ever be. That's what I want and that's what

419
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 3: I'm going to do. That's what I'm going there to

420
00:19:15,640 --> 00:19:18,919
Speaker 3: do on Saturday night. I'm walking out there as a champion.

421
00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,639
Speaker 3: I'm walking in there there is no champion, and I'm

422
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,399
Speaker 3: walking out with my belt and I'm going to defeat

423
00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 3: the Spooky Man and I will prove once again why

424
00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 3: I'm the beast in the world.

425
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: He respects you. It feels like he respects you for

426
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: asking to fight him. But like you said, I don't

427
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,520
Speaker 1: know that he expects anything much different than what he

428
00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:42,600
Speaker 1: got from Robert Whitaker and all those guys. But he

429
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 1: got tough from Kamara Utsman, he got tough from Gilbert Burns.

430
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,080
Speaker 1: He's got tough before and bit through it. But I

431
00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: just don't know that he expects hard on Saturday night.

432
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 2: Yeah. Absolutely, And like I said, I mean, you cannot

433
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,120
Speaker 2: take anything away from Hamazad.

434
00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,760
Speaker 3: All the high he is, he deserves all that heart

435
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,600
Speaker 3: is as good as people think. But at the end

436
00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,560
Speaker 3: of the day, at this level, everybody's good and you

437
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,679
Speaker 3: need something more. And that's something more is what I have.

438
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 3: And it's not about skill. It's not about who wrestles

439
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 3: the best, who strikes the best. It's about who goes

440
00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 3: out there. If me and easy we strike. He is

441
00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 3: much better on paper, He's one hundred percent, and not

442
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,280
Speaker 3: even on paper if you just look at it, he

443
00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,360
Speaker 3: is so much more clean as he's a cleaner striker,

444
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:30,480
Speaker 3: he's more you know, he has his combos work perfectly

445
00:20:30,880 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 3: he looks pretty while he does it. I'm not here

446
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 3: to win that competition. But even though when we were striking,

447
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,040
Speaker 3: I was I was catching him. I was when me

448
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,760
Speaker 3: and Sugan, he's the boxing guy and I was out

449
00:20:40,800 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 3: boxing him. Because it's not a boxing five.

450
00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 2: This is MMA.

451
00:20:44,359 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 3: The distance is different, everything is different. There's too many

452
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 3: variables to go.

453
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,760
Speaker 2: This guy is too good at this. It's about being

454
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:52,399
Speaker 2: the best.

455
00:20:52,160 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 3: In MMA, and I one believe that I am the

456
00:20:55,720 --> 00:20:56,879
Speaker 3: best in the world at MMA.

457
00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,000
Speaker 2: And you know, Hamzad he is great.

458
00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,439
Speaker 3: And that's why this fire is so big because people

459
00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 3: know this is truly the two best in the world

460
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:05,040
Speaker 3: that are going at it.

461
00:21:05,160 --> 00:21:07,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, your weight classes as fun as it's been in

462
00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: a long time. What do you make of guys like

463
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,399
Speaker 1: Fluffy Hernandez and Inmovov and Bojowo and all the rest,

464
00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:16,439
Speaker 1: Like what do you make of having Because honestly, you

465
00:21:16,520 --> 00:21:19,600
Speaker 1: get through most people or a lot of people think, well,

466
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,880
Speaker 1: if he gets through Chimaya, who's the most dangerous one

467
00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 1: they have, It'll be a long time before someone gets

468
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:25,800
Speaker 1: the belt off of drinkers. But then when you look back,

469
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:28,400
Speaker 1: you go, well, we still got a lot of really

470
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:30,879
Speaker 1: high level mixed martial artists. I believe this is the

471
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:33,840
Speaker 1: deepest middleweight has ever been. Does that excite you as

472
00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:34,360
Speaker 1: the champion?

473
00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:34,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

474
00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I mean the first time in years that the

475
00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:40,000
Speaker 3: middleweight with three weeks ago, I've been through the home

476
00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 3: top five of the division.

477
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've beaten everybody in the top five. Now. Yeah,

478
00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:48,440
Speaker 2: three guys, three guys.

479
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:51,199
Speaker 3: When you have the rid of Day, you have He's

480
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 3: good rid of you have Barada Day, you have Fluffy

481
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,400
Speaker 3: in my opinion, top fox.

482
00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,120
Speaker 2: But I think he beats the top.

483
00:21:57,920 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: Five days paced.

484
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 3: The way he fights, he he made it look easy,

485
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:05,640
Speaker 3: I mean, and then you have Imamov who is there

486
00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 3: also being easy, so he got that spot. But then

487
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 3: you have Barllo and him fighting, and yeah, it's it's exciting.

488
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,520
Speaker 2: Like I said, it's a very exciting time to be.

489
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:16,440
Speaker 1: That's the one. That's who's next. You think the winner

490
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 1: how you and Imava?

491
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:21,960
Speaker 3: I think it depends on who wins, to be honest, Yeah,

492
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:26,000
Speaker 3: he's on a long wind streak. He's ranking is not

493
00:22:26,119 --> 00:22:30,080
Speaker 3: where Immov ranking is. I don't, I don't know, I don't.

494
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 3: I have no idea what they want to do. But

495
00:22:32,160 --> 00:22:34,239
Speaker 3: right now, I don't think there's really anybody putting their

496
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:35,760
Speaker 3: hand up as I'm the next contender.

497
00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,879
Speaker 2: But there's a lot of room.

498
00:22:37,680 --> 00:22:40,840
Speaker 3: For a container to arise with the names that we

499
00:22:40,880 --> 00:22:41,240
