What other flavors have you got besides Blue Blitz?
00:02:42.500
Orange and grape are the two best, in my opinion.
00:02:52.220
We just got a new, I can't remember what the Texas one is called.
00:03:09.780
So you open it, you put some in your mouth, and it's like Pop Rocks.
00:03:49.640
You sent me a kit a while ago, but I was moving, so I never got to try this.
00:04:03.780
It's been a while since, you know, we've streamed...
00:04:10.940
If you want to say hi to the chat, what's up chat, ask him any question you want, just
00:04:16.680
so they could see if they're on the same wavelength as you.
00:04:32.840
Well, we got the, we got the creepy diddy oil here.
00:04:39.280
Oil thing. That's crazy. I'm not actually going to oil the guy up.

00:04:51.620
No, not even oil ups. Some people say some horrible shit on here.

00:04:57.820
Yeah, it's not bad stuff. It's like horrible shit.
1.00
00:05:08.820
Sometimes you have to pause and scroll, you know.
00:05:11.600
But if you ask them a question, they'll be nice.
00:06:02.380
I won't go over tickets and seating charts until tomorrow or Friday.
00:06:10.080
It's going to be a big one, whoever gets the belt.

people are going to walk out from the Oval Office.
00:09:39.040
this weekend. Oh my God, that's very, very nice.
00:09:48.020
I got to play devil's advocate because people want to be that.
00:10:00.280
Nothing will stop this show going that night.
0.99
00:10:15.520
we cannot have lightning right for this please that would be absolutely horrible listen this is
00:10:23.420
why I don't like doing things outside obviously rain would heavy winds will yeah if it's muggy
00:10:30.500
and bugs I mean all this kind of stuff that that that you have to deal with when you do something
00:10:35.680
outside but we're going through all of it all of it if any of those things happen doesn't matter
00:10:42.780
Like I said, the fucking snows we're going.
0.99
00:10:44.980
Lightning is the only thing that will really screw us.
0.99
00:10:49.160
Well, everyone put your fingers crossed there's no lightning.
00:10:52.100
We need, it could be snowy, it could be raining.
00:11:00.860
The security measures, I saw a couple people that are going there
00:11:06.920
Not so much for the people that are actually going to be in attendance on the lawn.
00:11:10.180
You mentioned that there's going to be like 70,000 people nearby that could see.
00:11:17.780
It's literally, so if this is the South Lawn, right?
00:11:24.480
This is a road that goes through the South Lawn, and this is the Ellipse here.
00:11:29.820
So when you're on the Ellipse, which is a park, you'll actually be able to see the fight from there.
00:11:40.720
We have concerts going on out there and activations with sponsors and the WWE and all kinds of shit.
0.95
00:11:50.660
Listen, if you're a UFC fan, and if you've never really toured Washington, D.C., you should come in for the week.
00:11:59.100
So you're going to be there for the whole week?
00:12:02.740
Press conference is going to be at the Lincoln Memorial.
00:12:06.580
It's going to be a really cool experience for everybody.
00:12:18.340
You have to have a ticket to get in, but the ticket's free.
00:12:27.240
Well, you guys better come down to D.C. if you guys want to get a free.
00:12:31.560
So is it first come, first serve because there's a capacity?
00:12:36.020
And most of the seats at the White House will be military people.
00:12:46.440
He and I are actually getting together soon to go through tickets and all that shit.
0.97
00:12:50.280
And then we have, like, a special, I think I have 84 tickets,
00:12:54.000
and he has 84 tickets for this VIP thing that we're going to host inside the White House before the fights start.
00:13:04.020
Yeah, so that's, Liko had asked, Liko, you could pin it again.
00:13:08.440
So I wanted to ask, are the fighters getting any special custom fighting kits for the White House event?
00:13:15.760
There's a lot of special stuff going on for the fighters that are fighting on that card.
00:13:25.540
He mentioned that he's like, finally, I'm going to start talking because I know Islam stays off social media.
00:13:30.220
Islam was saying that it was him and Ilya for the White House.
0.69
00:13:33.100
um and uh they were saying and islam said that ilia was the reason why it didn't happen because
00:13:38.220
he asked for too much money um is there anything that you could talk about that's not true not true
00:13:42.660
okay that's not true okay okay there's a lot of listen a lot of went on behind the scenes
00:13:50.440
making this card right um you know the john jones stuff that's been said ilia and islam
00:13:56.920
and the list goes on and on basically what i had the matchmakers went out and laid out every fight
00:14:06.620
that was a possibility and then i built the card and and decided who was going to fight
00:14:12.360
and and the thing that mattered most to me a the fights had to mean something what you know what
00:14:18.640
do they what do they mean are they important in the division and stylistically how do we think
00:14:23.940
the fights will be but more importantly who who can i count on and who do i know is going to show
00:14:28.700
up you know so here we are here we are here we are well it's uh alex's first fight at heavyweight
00:14:37.560
i mean he's he moves he moves uh up a lot and it's cool to see him compete for the belts um
00:14:43.340
you know depending on how that fight goes do you know what would be next between
00:15:02.540
this thing's like a fucking soap opera every week.
0.99
00:15:04.920
You never know what's going to happen, how it's
0.99
00:15:16.320
i'm gonna get into the function how's the gambling been how's your gambling been it's been good yeah
00:15:20.640
i uh i got back from china i was in china in september um i went to beijing and shanghai
00:15:29.280
and when i got back i went on a tear after after china on a tip like the greatest run of my entire
00:15:36.880
life the greatest crazier than the one you told me about work no that's that that's the
00:15:54.700
I took some lumps over the summer, last summer.
00:15:58.280
But then coming into September and into the new year was awesome.
00:16:04.080
Now, the gambling, it's either you have the best ups or the worst downs ever.
00:16:13.460
I really need to because Blackjack is just such a weird game.
00:16:20.460
But Baccarat is definitely kind of like what I need to lean into more.
1.00
00:16:24.780
Well, the biggest thing you got to learn is when you're getting your ass kicked,
0.99
00:16:28.020
you got to get up and walk away for a while and come back later.
0.99
00:16:40.060
And it was during the USA-Canada hockey game that morning.
1.00
00:16:54.560
And we literally said, let's take a break.
0.89
00:16:56.060
The win in Boston, that hotel, has one of the nicest spots you'll ever f***ing see.
00:17:01.360
So we went down there, cold plunged, saunaed, you know, watched the hockey game,
00:17:07.040
and then went back up and and in like 40 minutes i came all the way back and one i was i was in
00:17:14.800
town because i spoke it at harvard business school uh honestly it was the day that the
00:17:20.380
snowstorm was about to hit there oh literally i had to be at harvard at one o'clock
00:17:25.380
to speak and uh literally came back just in time to get out of there go to harvard speak and get
00:17:32.960
the fuck out of there before the snowstorm hit but the point is like steve steve will do it
00:17:38.080
we'll we'll get on these crazy binges right yeah and he'll be at at red rock and he's calling me
0.99
00:17:46.180
going hey i need help with this i'm like steve go home yeah yeah stop go sleep cold plunge i can go
00:17:57.300
do you know he sets the cold plunge up in there no that defeats the purpose you gotta leave there
00:18:02.000
you gotta you gotta relax you gotta get you have to get out of there definitely go chill and then
00:18:07.780
come back and you know fight another day yeah it's hard once he gets once he goes in it's hard
00:18:14.740
to get him out yeah no i've i've seen it too and it's a reality for him that's what i like about
00:18:19.580
him though he's it's the truth about gambling right he doesn't like sell like a false narrative
00:18:23.100
like steve is like look like i'm in debt and i'm and i'm it's sucks and i'm hurting or you know
00:18:28.380
like it's really good i like how he doesn't like show it's only good for people that watch because
00:18:31.980
it's like look it's not only good there's downs so um lico said oh no go ahead no you go ahead
00:18:39.440
no i say i say all the time i look at each year each calendar year there's a where do i end up
00:18:45.460
at the end of the year yeah am i down am i now that one thing you texted me that i was a man
00:18:51.200
seriously no no that was crazy it was incredible incredible um lico said what are three things
00:19:26.280
I mean, it's basically doing shit that we've never done before or going back to places we haven't been in a while.
00:19:33.280
And always looking for the best talent and always trying to make the best fights.
00:19:42.940
Some people want to know about your health, your current health.
00:19:47.080
They want me to ask about your seven-day water fast.
00:19:53.340
I learned about the water fast from the seven-day thing.
00:19:56.920
I saw a doctor talking about it, and then I talked to Gary Breckin,
00:20:06.620
I just ran into a guy who was telling me he just started fasting
00:20:10.660
because he had seen my video, and it's life-changing, guys.
00:20:16.060
You do a 72-hour water fast, the clarity that you get,
00:20:20.580
the way that you feel um and it's really good for you to do you know a couple times a year
00:20:26.520
wow and i what is it um question because i read this somewhere as well i'm actually no i was with
00:20:32.980
gsp a couple days ago he told me fasting also is essential whenever he would have like a i think
00:20:39.280
it was a wound or any type of inflammation he would always fast i believe he also said he would
00:20:43.420
fast for 72 hours and it would and it would cure that as well but question when you do fast do you
00:20:48.820
only do water and and how do you get the other nutrients that you're that you're lacking in
00:20:52.620
yeah i only do water but i use the uh i i do electrolytes oh electrolytes as long as they're
00:20:57.540
you know zero sugar zero calories if it's zero everything you can uh you can do it while you're
00:21:02.880
what about like bone broth or you don't do any of that yeah you can do the bone broth too but i
00:21:06.600
don't do it i don't do the bone broth i like it better just absolute water and electrolytes that
00:21:11.800
i'm telling you any of you i just saw this guy on uh on instagram too who was saying
00:21:18.680
And, you know, he was really heavy, and he fasted like a crazy amount of time.
00:21:25.180
This guy did a nutty f***ing amount of time that he did it.
00:21:27.540
But, you know, now he's doing push-ups and completely changed his whole life.
00:21:32.080
Fasting, I know it sounds crazy, but you give it a shot, it's very addictive.
00:21:40.100
I wanted to also ask you, because have you heard about, like...
00:21:49.360
But you didn't see it because it wasn't put together.
00:21:58.340
If you haven't been to my house, I just got it.
00:22:08.040
It's so hard sometimes just because I love candy and I love talkies.
00:22:15.720
You don't want to worry about that shit until you get older.
1.00
00:22:17.600
So what age can I start? What age do I have to start worrying about it?
1.00
00:22:25.640
Oh, wow. Do you ever have like a, how has your diet been lately?
00:22:32.780
So, you know, I was hardcore when I met Gary Breckner. I was hardcore for like three years.
00:22:37.940
Yeah, and then I, you know, in the last six months, I've been eating whatever I want to eat.
00:22:49.400
Like, I don't eat breakfast and I don't eat lunch.
00:23:01.900
I still do the whole superhuman protocol in the morning when I wake up.
1.00
00:23:15.480
I believe that doctors, regular doctors, they just try to medicate you.
00:23:21.720
So you keep coming back and you have to keep, but they don't actually help you fix the issue.
00:23:27.020
So if we ended up seeing a doctor, they'd put us both on the same medicine.
00:23:32.160
Gary Brecka's thing is, what I'm deficient in, you're probably deficient in other things.
00:23:38.200
So what he does is adds the stuff that you're deficient in with supplements.
00:23:45.480
What about, because it's big in my world now, like a lot of my generation, a lot of people
00:23:56.420
I know BPC 157, but a lot of people my age now are all doing it.
00:24:02.540
They're ordering it from these random websites.
00:24:05.060
They're really not doing it the right way, but a lot of people are doing it.
00:24:09.560
I feel like he's kind of like making it a trend in some ways, but what are your thoughts
00:24:14.060
on like peptides and that world yeah i don't know enough about them to to you know to really talk
00:24:20.100
about it but you know anybody that's on them is thrilled loves them it feels better yeah i've
00:24:25.420
only heard nice things guys i mean yeah um yeah i've only heard good things about them i've never
00:24:32.140
heard anything bad about them yeah yeah um someone said in your eyes what's something that fans think
00:24:37.880
they understand about fight promotion but they actually get totally wrong is there like a
00:24:41.980
What's something fans think they understand about?
00:24:45.100
Well, what's funny is, you know, as long as I've been doing this, like, 25 years, nobody really knows anything about the business.
00:24:57.540
There's a bunch of, I don't watch any MMA shits.
1.00
00:25:03.540
I mean, every fucking thing I see from these websites and guys who are supposed to be the guest, it's all bullshit.
1.00
00:25:11.220
every thing they know nothing about the business so I hate all that coming and
0.99
00:25:15.840
recently it's been popping up in my feet I don't know why I got I gotta get it
00:25:19.920
the out of there not many people know a lot about this business it's pretty
00:25:26.820
fascinating but the truth is we're doing that has never been done before yeah
00:25:31.740
even now getting you know we got boxing UFC power slap and the jiu-jitsu
00:25:38.940
