00:00:29.000Especially presidents of corporations.
00:00:31.000Can you imagine if you had to work in a fucking office for your whole life, as old as we are now, if we were in an office since the time we were like 23, 24 years old, right out of school, just every day, buttoned down, Try not to say anything that's going to get you in trouble.
00:00:45.000Just trying to fucking make it to 5 o'clock and then immediately go to a bar and talk shit with your friends and then do it all over again on Monday.
00:00:53.000I time it so I know you're in a meeting.
00:00:57.000I know that you're in a meeting with eight white dudes and they're real serious about, you know, numbers have to be out, statistics.
00:02:32.000And I had to pick people up at the airport at night.
00:02:35.000And I fucking did everything I could to get out of that job because one night I was in a van with people doing the speed limit, no alcohol, you know me.
00:02:43.000I just hit black ice and the thing started spinning and you don't know where you're gonna land.
00:02:50.000Chris McGuire and I were on our way to the airport in Ohio and we crossed over a bridge and bridge is where you get it because there's no ground underneath it so things freeze quicker.
00:02:59.000We went over this bridge and just, whee!
00:05:19.000And then when I started selling Subarus, it had a GL-10 that I was really impressed with because what it let you do is...
00:05:25.000If you went up Lee Hill Road, okay, and you made the left to go down into your property, and there was snow, you could press a button and the shock absorbers would fill up.
00:05:39.000And your car would rise above so you could go through the snow.
00:08:55.000The deals they're giving you now, I mean, a buddy of mine just bought a car and he got a point and a half, whatever, interest rate, whatever, you know, for a point and a half mediocre credit.
00:09:21.000And everybody was like, look, if you buy American cars, you're going to buy something that's going to cost the same amount, but it's not going to last as long.
00:09:27.000And the Japanese just took the Germans.
00:12:07.000So when most, some Americans, old school veterans, you know those guys that wear the jackets with the hat, when they come to see a car, if you show them a Chrysler, a certain type of Chrysler, they go, nah.
00:12:20.000They got a Mitsubishi fucking tailpipe.
00:14:33.000That's what's great about that fucking car, that your family saves 10 Gs by a casket.
00:14:38.000They just bury you in that fucking thing.
00:14:40.000But if you think about it, if you have to get around everywhere, and it's just you most days, and something like this is cheap, what is the difference between being in that and being in a big truck with all that fucking empty space?
00:14:51.000Because you look like a fucking idiot in that fucking thing.
00:14:55.000You ever drive past one of these idiots, and you're at a light, and you actually look at him, and you're like, in his mind...
00:17:24.000So we're watching this video that says Mazda RX-7, rotary engine, how it works.
00:17:28.000And it's describing how it works in a very strange video where you're watching this thing rolling around inside of an oval, it looks like, a big oval engine container.
00:18:12.000Now I forget that stuff, I'm not going to lie to you, because the level of intelligence in Boulder from the university, when they would come in, remember Boulder, at the end of the day, University of Colorado is where you're going to be an astronaut.
00:19:43.000Just think about all the various forms of sports cars and 911s.
00:19:50.000All those different Corvettes that came out.
00:19:52.000All that shit was before the internet.
00:19:54.000They were just looking at each other's pictures and looking at magazines and everyone was competing against each other to have the best handling car, the best looking car, best fuel efficiency.
00:25:07.000So, for $72,000, $73,000, you can buy a car that is so fast.
00:25:14.000If you really can know that there's a difference between the speed of that and then the next car after that, the next car that's more powerful, you really should be in jail.
00:26:10.000It's, you know, it's synonymous with luxury.
00:26:13.000You think of Cadillacs, but it's a GM car.
00:26:17.000And if they decide to take the Corvette model and just make it a brand, and so have dope SUVs, like fast, racy SUVs, fast, racy four-door sedans...
00:37:56.000During the break, I went to Christmas night.
00:37:58.000My fucking girls went to sleep, so I slid over to the Lemley, ate three edibles, and my heart was beating with that fucking, because that movie, Joey Diaz, 83 to 84. Whatever you want to do, we're going to do.
00:41:58.000There's something about, like, it's hard to get everything going, but if you just get on an elliptical machine for 20 minutes, just listen to some good music, and just say, there's no option.
00:42:36.000It's also, it's like, you can get a lot out of that when you're in those early stages like we were, when we were learning how to do the road.
00:42:45.000There's a lot you get out of those Wednesday through Sunday weekends, weeks.
00:43:38.000I could fucking take the Friday flight to LA. I could take the Friday six-hour flight at 6 a.m., land in Kennedy at 2, and be at Town Hall ready to go at 8. But do I really want to do that?
00:43:53.000on Thursday, get to New York at 2, take a little nap.
00:43:56.000At 4, go downstairs, do the elliptical, get two five pounds, shadow boxing, 10 minutes, because ain't nothing better for you than shadow boxing.
00:44:04.000Breaks a tremendous sweat, a couple of upper jabs.
00:48:32.000She was 38, and she had a husband that was like 60. He would just barely be alive like that dude from Texas that was fucking out of the cold.
00:48:40.000And he would watch her, because he knew we were savage, so we were going to take her down.
00:48:45.000She had two daughters, and the daughters were badass.
00:48:48.000But one of my Goombas dated one of the daughters.
00:53:25.000The sword part could come up if shit hits the fan, if we go back and, you know, if we get knocked into the Stone Age for a nuclear war with Russia.
00:55:03.000The thing about him, man, is I think in that first movie, it was one of the more unique martial arts movies.
00:55:12.000Like, Above the Law, it's almost a shame that he made a bunch of movies that weren't as good, because if you go back to Above the Law, in terms of martial arts history, and Above the Law is a legitimate...
00:55:25.000The historical movie in terms of martial arts movies.
00:55:29.000Because it was the first movie where you got to see a real Aikido practitioner with a hybridized system of martial arts.
00:55:37.000Like he was doing Aikido, but he was also throwing a lot of punches and knife hand strikes and a lot of strikes.
00:55:44.000See if they showed the bodega scene and above the law.
00:56:35.000A lot of people were doing things that they thought were legit, but they really, once the UFC came around, we found out, oh, this is not the best way to do it.
00:56:42.000Now, this is 87. There's a kid in this scene that was just in the movie with Clint Eastwood, the mule.
00:56:49.000He's been doing movies for fucking 30 years.
00:59:25.000That guy in The Mechanic, if you go back to the original Charles Bronson version of The Mechanic, he was slated to be the next big superstar.
01:12:08.000Whatever war it was in, they were the first people to get...
01:12:12.000So this guy, who had created the Haber method for extracting nitrogen, at the same time was wanted for war crimes because he figured out how to gas the enemy.
01:12:25.000And he was working for the Nazis and he was a Jew.
01:13:19.000But I would imagine one of the biggest problems...
01:13:23.000That people had back then was when you couldn't grow things places, when you didn't have enough food.
01:13:28.000I mean, it was a real touch-and-go situation before refrigeration and then before, you know, large-scale trucking and agriculture everywhere like we have today.
01:13:37.000And how much of the nitrogen that we use came because this guy figured out otherwise they would just use like dead fish and things like that.
01:15:42.000Well, that's why being a comic is one of the most fulfilling things of all time.
01:15:47.000Because people get something out of it.
01:15:49.000If they go to see you, the reason why you're willing to eat dick is because you want to develop these bits and have them crush.
01:15:56.000Get them to that point where when people come to see you and they pay money to see you, boom!
01:16:00.000You lay them on them and they're like...
01:16:02.000That feeling that you can do, that you can give to someone when you see someone just laughing so hard, it's one of the greatest feelings a person can ever experience.
01:16:12.000And not a lot of people get to experience it.
01:16:14.000Can you imagine how important laughter is in your life?
01:16:19.000After a certain point, like it's your, it's like, you know, you need sleep.
01:16:48.000I mean, I love getting high at night, doing edibles, and finding stupid videos, and watching an old stand-up reel, and just laughing my fucking ass off.
01:20:21.000Yeah, he's got this one song, he's got an old school cassette Walkman, and he's got the headphones on and shit, and he's kicking the shit out of aliens while he's listening to this badass song.
01:20:32.000But it's like, those old classics, there's something about songs that are from a different time that it's not just that it's a great song, but it's also that it's history.
01:26:28.000If you want me to tell you something, this is why I got into podcasting.
01:26:33.000This was my biggest appeal about podcasting, that guys like you and I grew up on listening to Pryor, Cheech and Chong, Carlin.
01:26:45.000My albums of choice as a kid were, there were three by Richard Pryor, This one, and I liked Lenny Bruce Live from Carnegie Hall for some reason.
01:27:00.000That's my album collection of stand-up comedy.
01:29:37.000Listen, just to put that fucking needle on there again, I wonder how many fucking turntables were sold in America last year for the album to come back.
01:29:48.000And I have one in my office, and I go to two different places once a month.
01:29:53.000Do you listen with headphones, or do you listen just to speakers?
01:29:55.000When I listen in the office, I put them on with the speakers at the office.
01:30:02.000When I listen to it at home, I got the headphones.
01:30:31.000But when you have an album, when you have a record player, I think that It would definitely make you more inclined to treat it like an event, you know?
01:30:41.000Just have a cup of coffee, smoke a joint, sit on the couch, just listen to it.
01:33:34.000Some nights it's comedy, some nights it's fucking rock music, and once the album is over, I shut it off, put the album back on the cover, and I get in the car and I go, I'm like, nothing happened.
01:33:44.000Most of the nights I do that, I really don't have nothing to do.
01:37:41.000So he found out her whereabouts and he found out, he called like every restaurant in that area to see who would have that specific type of clam.
01:37:51.000And he fucking caught the killer because he paid for it with his credit card.
01:38:56.000Great show, and it would come out like at one.
01:38:58.000So he studies Jeffrey Epstein, and he finds out that there's breaks in Jeffrey Epstein's neck that he's never seen ever in a hanging, and only seen from strangulation, only seen from murders.
01:39:12.000Did you see how they said that he hung himself?
01:41:52.000The ladies watched it together, the actual women that lived it, and then they, afterwards, they talked about it.
01:42:01.000They talked about what was real and what was not real.
01:42:03.000But one thing that was real is Roger Ailes would make them stand in front of him and twirl around so they could see their ass, so he could see their ass.
01:42:11.000So imagine, you're a woman, you get this job, you're going to be an anchor.
01:42:15.000Like, I'm really excited to work for you, Mr. Ailes.
01:42:48.000Apparently this guy, Roger, that's his name, Roger Ailes, right?
01:42:51.000What they're saying is that, you know, he would say, I want to see you naked, I want to see you in lingerie, I want to see naked pictures of you.
01:42:58.000He was just a dirty old fat dude who just harassed the fuck out of all the women that worked there.
01:44:48.000That relationship between the secretaries and the wives and the husbands and...
01:44:53.000It's real recent for people, for men and women to be alongside each other all day that you don't even know each other and you're in an office together.
01:45:01.000Throughout all of human history, when people got together and worked together, they were a tribe.
01:45:06.000It wasn't strange, random guys that just got hired by fucking HR to come down and sit next to you in your office and ask you questions about how you conduct yourself.
01:46:20.000But they've been doing that their whole life.
01:46:22.000And the people before them did it to them.
01:46:24.000And there's generation after generation after generation of child molester priests.
01:46:29.000It's one of the craziest things that Catholics just accept.
01:46:35.000Because most Catholics are not pedophiles.
01:46:38.000Most Catholics are good people that want a bunch of great people to live together with certain rules, and they think if you abide by these rules, then you're doing the work of God.
01:46:48.000But the people at the top, there's a certain percentage of them, I don't know what the number is, that are definitely pedophiles.
01:46:55.000And it's a high number in comparison to every other job.
01:47:38.000I went to Sacred Heart School for Boys.
01:47:41.000And one day I went on there, one night I was high, and I just went on a Google search and went down a foxhole and went on a couple Reddit pages of people saying different things.
01:47:58.000But I looked up a different church that was close to my house, and it was 200 cases.
01:48:06.000Nobody gets prosecuted, and they move you to another archdiocese, and you start your little charade again.
01:48:13.000And then when you start, let's say you fuck up four fucking different states, like let's say you go from Jersey to Minneapolis to San Diego, then to Louisiana, then they ship you overseas.
01:48:27.000Once too many letters start to come in about this situation, then they ship you overseas.
01:48:33.000And they'll put you at the fucking Vatican or whatever.
01:52:28.000I mean, the people that are in the church, the people that are believers, the people that love to dress up nice and go and behave kind and see all the people in the community at the church, there's a good feeling that people get from going to church.
01:52:43.000But the fact that it's connected to that, it's so insane that it's still there.
01:52:50.000It's so insane that it hasn't been rooted out.
01:53:03.000They wanted that Ratzinger, that Pope Ratzinger.
01:53:07.000That's one of the reasons why he had to step down, and one of the reasons why he stays in the Vatican.
01:53:11.000I was reading some article about them bringing up charges, crimes against humanity against him.
01:53:17.000That other countries wanted to do that because this guy used to ship kids or he used to ship priests to places where they wouldn't get in trouble like he had this one guy who was accused of molesting boys and so he shipped them to this place where he worked with deaf kids and he molested over a hundred deaf kids.
01:53:56.000I'm looking up, there's reports on why aren't they going to jail, and I'm like, if you settle a case, you don't, like, they don't keep prosecuting you.
01:54:01.000I just, I guess if you make a, like, the person decides to drop charges?
01:54:06.000There was a guy in Boston, they were gonna fucking give $100,000, they were gonna put him under the jail.
01:54:13.000There was some guy in Boston, I read about years ago, they were gonna put him under the jail.
01:54:22.000I don't want to deal with none of those people.
01:54:23.000I don't want to deal with none of them.
01:54:24.000At any religious level, I don't want to deal with them.
01:54:27.000The problem is whenever people get into a position where everybody, for the most part, is humble around them and scared of them and they have power.
01:55:15.000And when he was corrected, he was angry at us.
01:55:19.000Like, he had these gin blossoms all over his face.
01:55:22.000He's just some weird old guy who got tricked into this very strange life, and now it's at its end.
01:55:31.000And he's been living with robes on, supposedly being celibate his whole fucking life, while people kiss his ass and pretend that he's something special because he talks about the Word of God.
01:55:40.000But you can just see in that one moment where he wasn't even embarrassed that he said the wrong name.
01:55:46.000He was upset that people were correcting him.
01:57:36.000I remember they would say some things in Latin because I remember I'd be five years old going, what in the fuck are these people talking about?
01:57:42.000What type of kid were you between the age of five and ten?
01:58:41.000And a guy came in, and we started talking, and he was 50, wasn't a good-looking guy, looked like that fucking guy, and he had like a 20-year-old chick with him.
01:58:51.000And obviously, after taking him on a demo ride, I figured out that he could fuck her and shit.
01:58:57.000No, I realized that he was fucking her.
01:59:01.000She was like his receptionist or something.
01:59:03.000But after when we got back, I also realized he was my father-in-law's friend.
02:01:04.000People that have been to those Pray the Gay Away camps, they claim that guys were hugging them with full heart-ons behind them, telling them it's alright, that God loves them.
02:01:12.000This guy was pressing his dick against this guy's buttocks.
02:01:16.000Like, they made him sit, like, almost in a rear naked choke position, where the guy who's the counselor's behind you, with his dick against your back.
02:01:45.000There's been a lot of, like, real recounts, you know, recountings where people went to those camps and they're like, oh my god, everyone was gay.
02:01:52.000It's like everyone was, like, even the counselors, the guys who were saying they were going to pray the gay away, they were just trying to fuck you.
02:01:59.000I don't know how much fucking they do or how much they just hang on to your back with a heart on and pretend that nothing's going on.
02:02:28.000I was in San Francisco, and I was really into monster books back then.
02:02:33.000I was into monster movies and monster books, and I was looking at these books, and this creepy dude came over to me, and he said, you like monster books?
02:05:23.000He was a teacher He got kicked out of his position for some unfair reason.
02:05:29.000He wouldn't really be specific about it But he said, you know, they didn't like the way he taught And so anyway, this dude just becomes my friend, like nice and slow, nice and slow.
02:11:48.000I mean, look at all the situations we've discussed just today alone.
02:11:51.000Harvey, Eric Epstein, Bikram, you know, Marilyn Monroe, that guy two weeks ago that two people died of speed in his house, that fucking nutcase in L.A. That same guy?
02:12:31.000When I first got here, the hot book was You'll Never Work In This Town Again.
02:12:35.000And it was a hooker who fucking did a tell-all book about Don Henley calling her up to her house and they had a bend over and Don Henley would snort coke off their assholes and then get up and plug them once and sit back down and just sit there.
02:12:49.000So you had to go to Don Henley's house, he had a fireplace, four women, and he would just say, bend over naked.
02:16:03.000Well, I watched a little bit of his last week, and he comes across to you, his professionalism, listen, Some people know a wounded deal when they see one.
02:16:15.000And that's what these women are saying, that his professional, his skill is the art of the wounded woman.
02:17:10.000It's horrible, and I feel terrible about it, and it just makes me feel sick hearing the story.
02:17:14.000But what makes me laugh is if we found out that J-Lo had been capturing 15-year-old boys and pissing in their face, we would think it was hilarious.
02:17:24.000If J-Lo went to high school and she got all these sophomores and she brought them back to her place for a gangbang, we would think these kids had a good fucking time.
02:17:34.000It's one of those big, giant differences.
02:17:38.000Between the way we feel about men and women.
02:17:42.000But it is kind of funny that if R. Kelly was like a really beautiful woman, and she was doing the exact same thing to 15-year-old boys, making them live with her and eat her pussy and shit, we would think it's hilarious.
02:18:21.000We feel very different about that story.
02:18:24.000There would be a hilarious story if there was some big-tittied freak singer who has a little sex cult and she brings 15, 16-year-old boys over.
02:18:35.000We wouldn't really, we would be like, wow.
02:18:37.000But we wouldn't feel like a crime got committed.
02:19:31.000Like, everything about you is like you're so, so shattered by this whole fame thing and you're constantly getting plastic surgery to the point where nobody can even recognize you anymore.
02:21:31.000And then their act is not good anymore.
02:21:33.000So when you watch this Never Neverland, you're going to see people who got caught up, Jerome.
02:21:41.000People who lived in the Simi Valley, and one day Michael Jackson came to your house and paid your bills and said, you know, I'm going to take you guys on the road with me.
02:21:54.000It starts off with the room down the hall, and then next thing you know, he's in the room next to you.
02:22:00.000Now, there's no more rooms on levels in the same hotel, so you're in the hotel next door to you, but your son, your daughter really wants...
02:22:11.000To sleep in Michael Jackson's room, daddy.
02:22:14.000Because you're getting thrown money to go out to dinners.
02:22:20.000A limo's picking you up to go see you two.
02:22:23.000You're gonna leave your two daughters with fucking Michael Jackson.
02:22:33.000I'm sure Marilyn Monroe didn't come to this town thinking she was going to be sucking Kennedy's dick, Savage and Connor's dick, and fucking the baseball player's dick.
02:23:17.000Have you seen the video where Ricky Gervais jokes around about them being friends with Harvey Weinstein in the last Golden Globes?
02:23:25.000And then there's a whole series of people thanking Harvey, getting up there and thanking Harvey, all these, including people that have accused him of things, getting up there and thanking him and talking about how they wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Harvey Weinstein.
02:23:38.000I mean, it's like fucking ten minutes long.
02:23:40.000It's all these famous people thanking Harvey Weinstein.
02:23:43.000Or God, LOL, and everybody's laughing.
02:23:46.000People were just giving him so much praise.
02:24:10.000I don't think they knew, unless he did it to them, what it was.
02:24:16.000I think there's an innocence to a lot of people's perceptions about people like that, is that both parties are in on it.
02:24:26.000The girl wants to go to him because he is going to offer her a role in a movie, and he wants the girl to come to him because she's hot and he wants his dick sucked, and they both know it.
02:24:40.000But those are very different than the ones where he holds a girl down or he takes off his robe and she expected it to be a real script.
02:24:49.000Those are very, very different things.
02:24:51.000And I don't know if people knew about those.
02:24:55.000I think they thought it was more of the former than the latter.
02:24:59.000I think they thought it was more like creepy deals he made with actresses but kept his word and they sucked his dick.
02:25:04.000But then when you get the other stories mixed and you go, okay, it's probably because They knew, I bet the people around him knew he's a pig, but probably didn't know what the worst accusations were.
02:28:28.000The only way people would be comfortable with it, and even then they probably wouldn't, like if you believe in people's rights, you have the right to do anything, well you also have the right to be a hoe.
02:28:39.000So if the only way would ever be okay is if she made it clear that she was willing to have sex for money and this was her choice and she could do it with her body, then people would probably leave you alone.
02:28:52.000They'd be willing to pay for sex, you fucking disgusting piece of shit.
02:28:56.000You're supposed to pretend that you don't want to have sex with her and that you wouldn't be willing to pay for it.
02:29:02.000It would only be okay in everybody's eyes if it was the woman's choice.
02:29:05.000But every time we think about, if you think about sex for money, everybody, at least I do, I automatically think about sex trafficking, which is like the worst possible case scenario, right?
02:29:15.000If you go to a prostitute that that prostitute is, that's a sex slave, right?
02:29:21.000That was the thing that they got the craft guy.
02:29:23.000They were using a false accusation against that guy that got jerked off.
02:29:27.000You know the guy who owned the Patriots?
02:35:35.000This motherfucker, this will poison you.
02:35:38.000When I wake up in the morning, that first dose of pee is the worst smelling thing in the world.
02:35:43.000Before I go to bed, I drink water, a little bit of tart cherry juice, and I take a fucking baby aspirin because the high level after 50 is to get the heart attack between 5.30 and 12. I was making a mistake and taking the aspirin at 7. It's too late.
02:39:48.000You'd have to bet $320 to win $100 on Conor.
02:39:53.000He's minus 320. The only way you can win this weekend is with Conor and you see Conor going in there and knocking him out in the first round in the under.
02:40:04.000But if Conor, if Fucko wrestles him and it goes five rounds...
02:40:11.000I don't see a lot of people betting Conor in the over.
02:40:14.000Conor looks so good that people are expecting Conor to go in there and knock him right out.
02:41:56.000I almost wish more people knew how tough Rosenstreich is.
02:42:01.000You see the fight with Aleister over him, and you go, well, Aleister was kind of out pointing him, and then he caught Aleister slipping, really with like 10 seconds left to go in the fight, and hit him with a bomb and broke his lip open.
02:42:13.000That's true, but he still absorbed everything that Aleister threw at him.
02:42:18.000Never looked like he got shook at all.
02:42:20.000And we're talking about a guy in Alistair who's knocked out Junior Dos Santos, knocked out, you know, was the K-1 Grand Prix champion.
02:44:17.000His left hand is a fucking piston, and he's sneaky, and he's got nasty uppercuts, and he's got a killer instinct.
02:44:24.000When he has you hurt, he fucking bombs on you.
02:44:27.000And the Eddie Alvarez fight is the best example of that.
02:44:30.000Eddie Alvarez was a world-class fighter, and Conor McGregor took it to him like no one has ever done in his career, tuned him up, made him look like he had no business in the cage with him.
02:44:40.000Now, for Eddie, he said he just fought a bad fight, and I believe him.
02:45:59.000And he probably wasn't really prepared for that fight.
02:46:02.000You think about how much time he'd been off of MMA, how much time he'd been working on just boxing and then spending all that money, because he made like $100 million.
02:46:10.000The question for me is, who is Conor right now?
02:46:14.000Is Conor McGregor the same guy that knocked out Dustin Poirier when he was a savage?
02:46:19.000Is he the same guy that knocked out Diego Brandao?
02:46:23.000Is he the same guy that knocked out Jose Aldo?
02:46:27.000Is he the same guy who knocked out Eddie Alvarez?
02:46:29.000Or is he just some new thing because of all this money and all this fame and all this attention and he likes to party?
02:46:37.000If he's the same guy, physically there should be no reason why he isn't.
02:46:41.000He hasn't taken any terrible beatings.
02:46:43.000Even the Nurmagomedov fight, he stopped him with a choke.
02:46:47.000If he is the same guy physically and he decides he wants to let the fucking world know that he can still do it and who gives a fuck how much money he has in the bank?
02:46:56.000He wants to let the world know he's here to fuck people up and he's here to reclaim his crown.
02:47:00.000If he goes into the fight with that attitude, I mean, we could certainly see a resurgence.
02:47:08.000The question has always been whether or not a rich man has the motivation to work like a poor man.
02:52:21.000So if Conor beats Cowboy and decides he feels great at this weight, he feels confident now and dedicated, he wants to make a run at the fucking champ, there's a big size difference between Usman and Conor.
02:59:19.000Probably both things, and then also probably how to make weight.
02:59:23.000A lot of deaths in boxing apparently happen in the lower weight classes, and one of the reasons is that when these guys...
02:59:30.000Actually enter into fights, a lot of times they're still dehydrated.
02:59:33.000They would dehydrate themselves pretty bad in the weigh-ins to get to whatever weight class it was, like 134. But he probably weighs, you know, 134 and a quarter is what he weighed in.
02:59:45.000He probably walks around like 150-ish or something like that.
02:59:48.000And they dehydrate themselves, and it's very difficult to rehydrate the brain, apparently.
02:59:52.000It's not as quick and easy as it is rehydrating the body, and even that takes some time.
02:59:58.000So, most of the deaths in boxing have occurred, most of them.
03:00:02.000It's still very dangerous, even for the heavyweight division.
03:00:04.000There was a guy who went into a coma, a Russian guy, in a fight a few years back.
03:00:11.000But in the lighter weight divisions, they think it's generally when people get more likely to die from fights.
03:00:20.000And they think it might have something to do with cutting weight.
03:00:23.000But it's also really skillful people punching each other in the head.
03:00:28.000The Gerald McClellan fight is a good example that they always point to because Gerald McClellan, who was just a straight-up murderer when he was a light heavyweight, Really struggled to make weight, man, real bad.
03:00:40.000And in one fight with Nigel Benn, Nigel Benn got off the deck, and it looked like he was out, and made it back into the ring, fought his ass off, and then started taking it to Gerald.
