I don't like being trapped in this Apple ecosystem.
00:00:13.000
The fact that the screen has anti-glare on it, so much better.
00:00:24.000
So, like, if you have a cool pair of sneakers on, I can take a photo of them, do a little circle of it on my phone, and immediately pops up on Google all the places to buy it.
00:00:37.000
My notes, like, say if I do a show and I record it, it will transcribe the entire set and it will summarize it for me.
00:00:52.000
So if there's a website, you know, oh, what's going on in Russia?
00:01:12.000
The iPhone camera is fucking awesome, but so is the Samsung camera.
00:01:16.000
You've never taken a picture of an iPhone like, ah, I wish it was better.
00:01:24.000
But if you are like one of those crazy professional photographers, one thing this does do is it zooms way better.
00:01:32.000
You can read a sign like way in the distance where I've zoomed in with this and I can see it, but I can't read the letters.
00:01:39.000
And then with this phone, with the Samsung, I see the letters crystal clear.
00:01:42.000
I think the iPhone is a better camera for just whipping it out and taking a picture, but you can do more with the Android.
00:01:48.000
I don't even know if it's a better camera for taking it out and whipping a picture.
00:01:52.000
I think for taking it out and whipping a picture, it's equal.
00:01:57.000
There's all these options he's always shown me about.
00:02:02.000
If you're not into fucking around with things, get an iPhone.
00:02:04.000
But if you're like me and you're really into tech stuff, Android's way more interesting.
00:02:09.000
With the Apple, with the iPhone, they have the...
00:02:13.000
The thing where you can shoot and cut and edit that has all that?
00:02:17.000
My crew, when we're filming whatever car stuff, whatever it is, outside, they'll just have a handheld with the iPhone.
00:02:32.000
You can set it in a pro mode, and you have way more options in terms of how you film it, what the images look like.
00:02:52.000
I've been talking to these people on Signal, like the guy Moxie who made Signal.
00:03:35.000
Bro, when I got my nose fixed, when I got my deviated septum fixed, I could smell way better.
00:03:42.000
Because I got mine fixed, and it just, it's whatever.
00:03:49.000
In the beginning, when you first get it fixed, and you have all the bandage up there, or they take the stitch out and pull it out, you're like...
00:03:56.000
I didn't get my nose fixed until I was 40 years old.
00:03:59.000
For 40 fucking years, I had a shattered nose with just the whole inside of it was blocked.
00:04:06.000
I had like one quarter of one nostril that was useful.
00:04:15.000
Because I called bullshit when his coach was like, he's only breathing 8%.
00:04:22.000
But I was like, come on, that's not a cardio thing.
00:04:24.000
And they're like, wait, do you see him in this next fight?
00:04:28.000
My cardio was at least 10% better when I got my nose fixed.
00:04:32.000
Like, if you can't breathe out of your nose, especially if you're doing jujitsu and your mouth is getting covered all the time, you're like, all you have is your mouth to breathe out of.
00:04:40.000
And also, as a fighter, breathing out of your mouth is trouble.
00:04:42.000
Yeah, because your jaw's open, you can get rocked easier.
00:04:45.000
For two years, I walked around like this, pulling my nose so I could breathe.
00:04:54.000
Well, so they put them in there for the first 12 days.
00:05:20.000
Brian had the funniest reaction ever to smelling salts because we opened up a fresh, ah, one of the fresh ones, and as soon as he opened up, he threw his headphones off and ran out of the room.
00:05:29.000
If you do it now, there's not a lot of room to run.
00:05:31.000
Don't run over the fucking TV. We got a freshie.
00:05:52.000
And then the lid of the thing is sealed as well.
00:06:20.000
Him smelling through the fucking bottle, that's some bitch shit.
00:07:14.000
I was going to wait until at least a co-main event.
00:07:27.000
I'll tell you what, that wakes you up before a show.
00:07:33.000
I live in my garage every morning before I get out and head to work.
00:07:48.000
Lucy's have eights, and they have like a little mint thing in it.
00:08:20.000
The directions say to keep it a foot away from your face.
00:08:27.000
The first time you did it, Brian, you got it up to your nose.
00:08:30.000
You put it like an inch from your nose and took a deep swig.
00:08:38.000
He says, do not use more than a few times a day.
00:08:48.000
That was like the last time we did a fight companion.
00:08:51.000
And you like pushed over a giant piece of chocolate.
00:09:15.000
Well now you get 16. So you'll have two of those, it'll be 16. To see if your heart will stop.
00:09:24.000
Because Zin gives you this weird flavor in your mouth.
00:09:29.000
So I like, you know, there's another one called, I think that's empty.
00:09:32.000
I think there's another one called Athletic THC that I really like.
00:09:52.000
But the nicotine is actually good for your brain.
00:09:54.000
A lot of great books were written on cigarettes.
00:10:00.000
Stephen King said when he stopped smoking cigarettes, it was one of the biggest issues.
00:10:03.000
Like, stopping cocaine and drinking was fine, but cigarettes, he was like, ooh.
00:10:16.000
His wife came in and she started cleaning up cans.
00:10:26.000
And it was literally the whole place was covered with beer cans.
00:10:36.000
Yeah, well, if you want to be good, you want to really write the kind of shit that he wrote when he was young, you've got to push that motherfucking envelope.
00:10:47.000
No, he actually in his book said, I was a very creative guy who had a substance abuse problem.
00:10:52.000
It's not that I had a substance abuse problem and therefore I was creative.
00:11:13.000
I think it opens up doors in your imagination that will stay closed.
00:11:17.000
Yep, and you can't get there unless you're under that.
00:11:20.000
Yeah, I mean, I've never fucked with cocaine, but he was a big cocaine user, and, like, The Shining was all on cocaine.
00:11:31.000
He felt like Jack Nicholson was too crazy too quick.
00:11:35.000
Yeah, he thought, like, in the movie, the guy becomes crazy.
00:11:38.000
The guy's like a normal dude who becomes crazy during the staying at the Overlook.
00:11:47.000
First fight, Volkan Ozdemir, and who's he fighting?
00:11:54.000
The odd makers went somebody's getting knocked out.
00:12:05.000
Dude, it'd be fun if Johnny Walker wins this one.
00:12:27.000
I'm saying I hope he wins and continues to win.
00:12:48.000
They might have offered him that fight, and he might have said no.
00:12:51.000
They might have thought that his fight with Jan Bohovic was boring.
00:13:00.000
And if you want to survive against Jan Bohovic, you've got to fight smart.
00:13:04.000
You can't ask a guy to fight stupid just so everybody can cheer.
00:13:08.000
But to Dana White's point, it's a business of entertainment, too.
00:13:11.000
Right, but he looked entertaining in all of his other fights.
00:13:23.000
Four minutes and thirty seconds, 4.29, 4.28, 4.27, 4.26 if you want to sync it up.
00:13:29.000
Like, I like what the UFC did with Izzy, right?
00:13:33.000
He's coming off a loss, and then he's been out, what, a year at least?
00:13:38.000
I think that's what makes the UFC the UFC, because they're going, no, no, we're not just giving the guy a title shot who we think is next.
00:13:46.000
Like, what Izzy did, his body of work, you can lose one and still be a huge draw.
00:13:51.000
What's the difference between fucking UFC and boxing?
00:13:54.000
That's true, but if that's true, why didn't Sean get the rematch?
00:13:59.000
I thought it was very close, but I thought Strickland should have got the decision.
00:14:07.000
I get the business entertainment side in the purist.
00:14:10.000
If you're a purist, Sean Strickland 100% should be next.
00:14:18.000
But the thing is about Tricus is, these guys are angry at each other.
00:14:23.000
You know, there's like a lot of hype, it's a good fight to sell, all that shit-talking.
00:14:42.000
And the problem with Johnny Walker is he's been KO'd a gang of times.
00:14:51.000
Didn't he win his last fight on a DQ? I don't know.
00:14:56.000
Jamal hit him on the forehead and his hands flew up in the air and he went, oh, there it is.
00:15:06.000
He's letting him get him against the cage like that.
00:15:15.000
You can't do wild shit when you're really hurt.
00:15:22.000
But that's why I went to SPG, because he needed to tighten up, because he's wild.
00:15:41.000
At a certain level, the fundamentals are going to beat you.
00:15:57.000
He hurt him, and then once Johnny Walker gets hurt, I think he's just been KO'd too many times.
00:16:10.000
I just think Johnny Walker had all the physical gifts, but I just didn't have the kind of fundamentals like Ozdemir does.
00:16:23.000
And the other thing is, like, Johnny Walker probably sucks a lot of weight to get to 205. And that definitely messes with your chin.
00:16:36.000
When you're sucking that much weight, it's gonna fuck your brain up.
00:16:48.000
He might be a really good heavyweight, man, and that is a shallow pool.
00:16:52.000
Like, you could lose, like, multiple fights and still be in the hunt.
00:16:57.000
Rosenstrug, you know, you've got a ton of guys.
00:16:58.000
Yeah, but nowadays, now that he's been flat-lined a lot.
00:17:03.000
I mean, you've got to think of all the different people that have gotten him.
00:17:06.000
Well, remember he was doing the worm when he won and blew his shoulder out.
00:17:11.000
So, Johnny Walker won a fight, I think it was in Brazil, and he started celebrating, doing the worm, and literally fell too hard and blew his shoulder out.
00:17:28.000
It's exactly what Pajeda had when he beat Jamal Hill.
00:17:38.000
Look, here's the thing about a broken pinky toe.
00:17:40.000
When you're a guy who kicks as much as Conor, it's a fucking problem.
00:17:43.000
And it's also the same foot where his leg was snapped and he went into that fight injured.
00:17:50.000
This is the first one he pulled out of, and I think it's wise.
00:17:53.000
Because I think if you do have a broken toe and you are going into a fight and you did go into a fight the last fight injured, what if that fucking toe becomes a real issue?
00:18:01.000
What if he throws a kick and it smashes again and he's in agony and he can't move?
00:18:05.000
I thought you and I were going to disagree on this.
00:18:08.000
And you've got to realize what's on the line for Conor too.
00:18:15.000
You've got to be able to get the fuck out of the way with Michael Chandler.
00:18:18.000
So you're not going to go in compromised and it's the leg that's already fucked up.
00:18:22.000
You want your best foot forward, no pun intended.
00:18:25.000
And he spends a lot of time bouncing on his toes.
00:18:39.000
Now, if this is Connor six years ago, he's fighting all day.
00:18:43.000
Excuse me, he fought Chad Mendes with a blown fucking knee and still beat him.
00:18:51.000
Connor's a savage and he's a fighter's fighter.
00:18:54.000
But this, I think finally his team's like, dude, I'm addicted.
00:19:02.000
The only person who drinks more Diet Coke than me.
00:19:04.000
I'm good unless the cool kids are doing it and then I'll drink it.
00:19:19.000
You know, they try to remake it to taste just like Coca-Cola.
00:19:27.000
They tried to make a better Diet Coke, but people had already liked the flavor of Diet Coke, so they had to...
00:19:38.000
Because the sales of Diet Coke were going down, because men were embarrassed to order Diet Coke, so they thought it was more of a female drink, so they're like, all right, let's do Coke Zero.
00:19:50.000
They called it the champagne of beers to get women.
00:19:56.000
But initially, it came out and it was the champagne of beers.
00:20:01.000
It's like with cigarettes, they used to call them freedom torches during the suffragette movement.
00:20:08.000
So Freud's grandson, Edward Bernays, Was like, I know how to do this.
00:20:13.000
We'll fucking just tell them that these are freedom torches.
00:20:17.000
So all these feminists now were like smoking their...
00:20:23.000
And he's the same guy that got people to say breakfast is the most important meal of the day.
00:20:28.000
Well, that was all because the pork lobby came to him and they were like, hey, we got to get people to eat more pork.
00:20:36.000
We'll just call it bacon is part of a breakfast, a good...
00:20:51.000
Saturated fat is not bad for you in any way, shape, or form.
00:20:54.000
That is all, again, that's all the sugar movement.
00:20:57.000
The sugar industry trick people into thinking that saturated fat is a problem.
00:21:06.000
Calories aren't the problem if you're working out.
00:21:08.000
Yeah, well, overeating is always a problem, but calories from saturated fat are not a problem.
00:21:15.000
Cholesterol is what creates myelin, which is literally what the fucking brain is made out of.
00:21:20.000
Cholesterol is responsible for all your hormone production.
00:21:23.000
Cholesterol is responsible for so much in the human body.
00:21:33.000
What's bad for you is sugar and excess of carbohydrates, bullshit food, seed oils.
00:21:39.000
There's a lot of things that people get connected to, that they connect to, and they say this is bad for you because of this.
00:21:49.000
Look, if you're on a ketogenic diet, which is very healthy for you, ketogenic diet, those people eat a shitload of bacon.
00:22:13.000
How about this Anthony Smith-Roman Delice fight?
00:22:17.000
You know, it was supposed to be Jamal Hill, Khalil Roundtree.
00:22:20.000
Khalil Roundtree falls out, and then Jamal Hill's going to go out against Carlos Olberg.
00:22:26.000
And then Jamal hurts his knee, and then Carlos Olberg, for some reason, is out.
00:22:32.000
And then he's supposed to fight Anthony Smith, and Anthony Smith stays, and now he's playing homeboy.
00:22:37.000
When did Michael Page get into the UFC? Recently.
00:22:43.000
I want to see if he gets away with all the shit at this level.
00:22:47.000
Well, he's going to fight Ian Gary, who is really tall, but I don't think he's going to be able to hit that dude.
00:23:05.000
I think he's sensational, but he's been hit before, and he's been rocked and dropped.
00:23:09.000
Michael Van and Page is a different thing inside the octagon.
00:23:24.000
I think he's going to have a really hard time finding that guy.
00:23:35.000
That point, elite point fighting style with all the MMA skills that Michael Venn and Page has, that is one of the most puzzling problems to deal with inside the octagon.
00:23:52.000
Yeah, I'm just saying his elite level of striking makes up for the other holes in the game.
00:23:58.000
The difference with Michael Venom-Page is Michael Venom-Page is an elite point fighter.
00:24:02.000
His style of hitting and not getting hit and being able to close distance really fast, fucking nobody's like that.
00:24:17.000
But the difference between kickboxing and point fighting is that blitz.
00:24:27.000
Remember when Francis and Derek Lewis were going to fight and were like, Bro, this fight's going one minute.
00:24:36.000
Sometimes when you have those two high-level strikers and it's that style, I'm not saying it's going to be boring.
00:24:41.000
There's a chance it can be really fucking boring.
00:24:43.000
Because it's so calculated, so strategic, and neither guy wants to engage because of all these faints.
00:24:48.000
Michael Vanden Page has never been in a boring fight in his fucking life.
00:24:56.000
He's great, don't be wrong, but some of those Bellator ones were tough.
00:25:03.000
I just think that he is the most difficult puzzle on the feet I've ever seen.
00:25:11.000
Kevin Holland couldn't do a fucking thing to him.
00:25:18.000
I mean, he's a complete fighter, Kevin, but he's a very good striker.
00:25:31.000
I think Ian Garrett's at a different level than those guys you mentioned.
00:25:34.000
And his movement's different, his size is different, his confidence is different.
00:25:37.000
But Ian is also used to fighting guys that are shorter than him.
00:25:40.000
And Michael Vennepage is the first guy that's taller than him.
00:25:54.000
Dude, when those guys are like 27, 26, 28, good fucking luck.
00:26:02.000
It's kind of interesting that Ian, Gary, and Colby never came out.
00:26:07.000
Colby said he declined it because he's not famous enough yet.
00:26:15.000
Colby was saying he's not famous yet, but meanwhile, Colby's lost most of his last fights.
00:26:19.000
I think it's an interesting fight because Colby is a motherfucker, man.
00:26:23.000
Talk all the shit you want about that guy, but that guy can close the distance.
00:26:26.000
He can fuck his fucking gas tanks off the charts.
00:26:28.000
His foot broke 30 seconds into that fight with Leon Edwards.
00:26:49.000
You fought that fucking dude for 25 minutes with a broken foot in three places?
00:26:54.000
Also, Leon Edwards is the best striker in the division.
00:27:11.000
Yeah, it's like what you want to see in an elite striker, you see in Leon.
00:27:15.000
I also like him because there's no really shit-talking.
00:27:20.000
You just respect him for his fucking skill set.
00:27:39.000
I ever tell you the time that there was this dude that was, I don't want to say who he worked for, but he was a bodyguard and he talked shit to Leon Edwards when Leon was with me.
00:27:57.000
This, like, after-hours party that David set up.
00:28:01.000
Dave sets up these shows, like, he does the shows, and after the shows, he likes to set up a party.
00:28:06.000
So he has, like, a DJ, he brings in foods, fun hang.
00:28:10.000
But it was at the end of the night, and this guy decided he was going to kick everybody out.
00:28:15.000
He singled out Leon Edwards and he got in his face and he said like, hey man, I fucking told you it's time to leave.
00:28:25.000
I said, I know you probably made some fucked up mistakes in your life.
00:28:36.000
I go, that's one of the baddest motherfuckers on the planet.
00:28:38.000
You're about to make one of the biggest mistakes of your life.
00:28:51.000
And then after he sees him knock out Kamaru, he's like, oh no.
00:28:56.000
He sees his life pass before his eyes when he was watching it on TV. You want to go viral, bud?
00:29:02.000
I was like, if you're going to do this, let me get my phone out.
00:29:04.000
That's like the guy fucking with Joe Schilling, like, tried to pick a fight with him before that.
00:29:07.000
He was, like, mouthing off to him the whole time before that, and Joe's like, Jesus.
00:29:15.000
He was mouthing off to, like, other people at the bar.
00:29:18.000
The whole story is that he was just a dick from start, and Joe was like, are you kidding me?
00:29:23.000
He seemed like a dickhead, just the way he was behaving.
00:29:26.000
That's one of the most wonderful instant karma videos of all time.
00:29:34.000
Karma put one of the scariest humans alive in front of him.
00:29:41.000
He's a world champion, kickboxer, elite strike.
00:29:44.000
You would look at him and go, that's not the guy I'm going to fuck with in the bar.
00:29:48.000
So Joe Schilling is at a bar, and he's trying to walk past this guy to get to the bathroom.
00:29:55.000
And Joe bumps into him and puts his hands on him.
00:29:59.000
He's been fucking with everybody in the bar the whole time.
00:30:09.000
He flinches at Joe like he's going to hit him, and then Joe just hits him with that three piece and a soda.
00:30:21.000
And you've got to understand, this was the end of a long...
00:30:23.000
He was fucking with Joe and everybody else the whole time.
00:30:33.000
And you don't do that to a guy that's a fucking train striker.
00:30:39.000
And Joe is the farthest thing from a bully, by the way.
00:30:49.000
He was playing fights with other dudes in the heart too.
00:30:51.000
He was causing all these problems with other guys.
00:30:54.000
But I mean, you've rarely seen people that get right to it.
00:31:09.000
Joe Schilling, he fought in this battle in Los Angeles where he had to fight three times in one night.
00:31:23.000
And then this dude who doesn't work out came off his day job at Remax and was like, I'm going to get fucked up.
00:31:30.000
That guy just left Best Buy with a fucking bonus check in his pocket, feeling cocky.
00:31:35.000
But the best thing about Joe Schilling, world champion kickboxer, most decorated American kickboxer in history, he smokes, sir.
00:31:49.000
When the video first started it, you said that's him in the black shirt.
00:32:09.000
He's fucking Nick Nolte with his fucking world-class hands.
00:32:20.000
I told this guy I'm gonna beat him arm wrestling, like whatever the fuck he's saying.
00:32:35.000
That is, if fuck around and find out was a viral video, that's it.
00:32:39.000
I would love to be the level of ready to just have a two-piece in the chamber at all times.
00:32:49.000
It's like my friends that start riding motorcycles when they're 40. Nah, it's past you by.
00:32:55.000
You could learn just a mean combo for the Austin bars, though.
00:32:58.000
Don't get a fucking Hayabusa, but you get a Harley.
00:33:05.000
Yeah, by the time you get that pistol, you're already asleep.
00:33:12.000
Did you see the, uh, uh, you got a hawk-tui spit on that thing?
00:33:24.000
One girl gets interviewed, and it's just, I love moments like that where one weird video, it's so funny, that the whole world sees it.
00:33:33.000
She's the most famous person on the planet right now.
00:33:35.000
So the one I saw on Instagram, the top comment underneath it, Is another woman being like, nobody needs, you don't have to spit on it.
00:33:54.000
She said it like she passed it, but she got a certificate.
00:34:07.000
But if you hear a girl go, you're not going to be like, wait a minute.
00:34:31.000
Yeah, bro, these kids, man, they own that social media.
00:34:47.000
I already clicked two of them and they didn't have the video on it for some reason.
00:35:05.000
Yeah, some guy on the street says, what do you have to do to make a guy crazy in bed?
00:35:13.000
Once upon a time, two girls were out on the town in Nashville, Tennessee, when a...
00:35:19.000
To which one woman replied, Oh, you gotta give him that huck.
00:35:35.000
Yeah, but her college is probably paid for now.
00:35:39.000
Yeah, I wonder how much money she's making off of this.
00:35:42.000
It is smart that she jumped right on it, because you gotta think, it's only been a few days.
00:35:50.000
There are a handful of other videos on Tim and Dee's page featuring the Hawk to a girl and her friend.
00:35:54.000
Since then, TikTokers claim to have found the woman, but the account is now repeatedly deleted.
00:36:12.000
I would like, the way it all to do is whose dick she's sucking, or is she just talking?
00:36:16.000
Those guys are about to make some TikTok videos, just, like, sitting there with a cup of coffee on the porch, like...
00:36:33.000
The guy on the left has one eye and he only can fight in other organizations.
00:36:41.000
So they won't let him fight in the United States?
00:36:45.000
One-eyed UFC fighter Shara Buten Magomedov lands killer role for acting debut in a new Hollywood movie.
00:37:01.000
But his depth perception has got to be all fucked up because he's only got one eye.
00:37:15.000
He's had like seven different operations on the eye to try to fix it.
00:37:26.000
Because he had the operations while he was competing.
00:37:29.000
I think it was something that happened during a fight.
00:37:33.000
For some reason, I thought it was when he was a kid.
00:37:36.000
I'm pretty sure the injury happened from a fight.
00:37:47.000
He had to get the right eye removed completely after losing vision.
00:37:56.000
Before the operation, I was afraid of an infection.
00:38:02.000
They don't usually do that anymore because you have cones in your eyes that sense light even though you can't see and it regulates your circadian rhythm.
00:38:14.000
Yeah, they're saying something about an infection.
00:38:24.000
Yeah, he wears like a lens over the top of it so it doesn't look so weird.
00:38:27.000
But it's just so people don't stare at his eye.
00:38:37.000
He got punched twice in the face from the direction he can see it.
00:38:54.000
Well, this article was he was 11-0 and he's only 12-0 now.
00:39:01.000
So this is his second fight in the UFC? At least second fight.
00:39:07.000
But, you know, he can't really fight in America.
00:39:09.000
Like, the Nevada State Athletic Division, they're like, there's no way, pal.
00:39:13.000
Like, you have to be able to see out of both eyes to fight America.
00:39:20.000
Like, you bring them to Kentucky, they're like, go ahead, fella.
00:39:35.000
That girl had no idea that thing went fucking viral.
00:39:41.000
You never know what's gonna be a popular video and what's not.
00:39:54.000
But the people that I know that try the hardest have never gotten one.
00:40:10.000
And even in his UFC debut, he got battered on the ground.
00:40:14.000
Bro, how about the main event was about to be Bo Nickel, but he was hunting in Montana and didn't have an Android phone like you guys and had no service.
00:40:29.000
He struggled a little bit with Cody Brundage, and Cody Brundage is nowhere near where Robert...
00:40:37.000
Well, Robert Whitaker might be the best 185 on the planet.
00:40:56.000
I don't know a shitload about him, about Bo Nickel, but I just keep hearing his name.
00:41:03.000
A real top of the food chain, blue chip wrestler.
00:41:06.000
And, you know, he's getting very good at striking.
00:41:09.000
He's basically our LeBron James, but he's white.
00:41:23.000
This is why you make the comparison to a guy like LeBron.
00:41:26.000
Since he was seven, he was selling out fucking huge auditoriums wrestling.
00:41:47.000
I was saying that the difference is LeBron has been dominant and famous on a world championship level for so long.
00:41:55.000
Jon Jones is more like the LeBron of MMA. No, he's talking about LeBron.
00:42:02.000
Like as a prospect, because there's so much pressure on him, and he has how many fights?
00:42:06.000
Yeah, I would advise a guy like that to not fight in the UFC for a long time.
00:42:10.000
I think you should get to world-class level before you get to the UFC. It's tough because outside the UFC, he's so dominant.
00:42:21.000
Because once you get there, if you're not ready, it's a marathon, not a sprint.
00:42:39.000
His thing is combining the striking and wrestling, putting it together like GSP did.
00:42:58.000
A lot of times guys like that, their learning curve is a lot steeper.
00:43:01.000
Well, elite athletes have a quicker learning curve.
00:43:11.000
But even Johnny Hendricks, remember his timing?
00:43:15.000
But he would knock things out because it was the same time.
00:43:18.000
Johnny and also pre-USADA and post-USADA Johnny are two different human beings.
00:43:25.000
It's like they're two totally different human beings.
00:43:28.000
Post you saw them, Johnny Hendricks is like, what?
00:43:32.000
But also, you want to watch Johnny's fights and go, man, that's world-class striking.
00:43:41.000
Why get worse when they're not testing anymore?
00:43:48.000
Like, there's documentaries online about Johnny Hendricks pre and post USADA. He's like one of the biggest examples.
00:43:58.000
I mean, you see a little bit of a difference in the physique, but what's really the difference is in the shocking power.
00:44:09.000
But also, to be fair to Johnny, those were the times.
00:44:16.000
Those were also the TRT eras where you could do it legally.
00:44:21.000
They turned you down for TRT? Yeah, they wouldn't let me have it.
00:44:26.000
I think it was already weird because Nate Marquardt was like from your area.
00:44:33.000
They were like, I remember that fight got canceled.
00:44:35.000
We were at the weigh-in and his fight got canceled.
00:44:50.000
He had nitrous oxide in his fucking bloodstream.
00:44:51.000
And then all of us, we're going to the same doctor, and then that doctor's like, see ya!
00:45:00.000
Well, a lot of these doctors are dorks, you know, and they think they're going to be able to take these ads.
00:45:05.000
Because they did our, you know, they're just like, oh, TRT's legal?
00:45:09.000
We're going to fucking bang you up with all these other different things.
00:45:11.000
But they don't get the commissions and all that, and you're dealing with high-level sports.
00:45:15.000
Right, and how many of those doctors have ever been, like, through the whole testing process?
00:45:26.000
Probably the best shape since I fought is that Transcend, where it's like peptides, TRT. What's Transcend?
00:45:32.000
It's a company, and you do your blood work probably at least every two weeks, every three weeks, and they monitor everything.
00:45:38.000
All right, you should be taking this, this, this, and this, and it's a script plan, and they send it to you.
00:45:43.000
You just start taking everything, and then they check your blood work.
00:45:57.000
For me, I need my fucking brain after getting punched.
00:46:06.000
He shows up at my show and I was like, what are you doing?
00:46:14.000
Yeah, they got rid of thymosin because it was helping people get over COVID. That's how you know they're good.
00:46:29.000
I shoot myself about seven times a day, but whatever.
00:46:34.000
You know what irritated me is the Balco people.
00:46:36.000
The Balco people got caught because they went through the trash and they had their names written on the list.
00:46:44.000
I was like, how the fuck you got my name written?
00:46:50.000
Yeah, they caught him going through the garbage.
00:46:56.000
How do you do a crime and write it down and put it in the trash?
00:47:00.000
If I was Barry Bonds, I'd be like, what the fuck are you doing?
00:47:11.000
He's doing that Pierre thing where he doesn't turn his hips over.
00:47:19.000
If you're, back to the Conor thing, if you're Michael Chandler, what do you do?
00:47:25.000
Yeah, Max Holloway, BMF. I hear people are talking about that fight.
00:47:36.000
I'm sure, but wouldn't it be nice if he was making millions over those two years?
00:47:39.000
Even if you're doing well, two years is a long time.
00:47:44.000
Yeah, and he's paid pretty handsomely from the UFC, you know?
00:48:13.000
He's like 32. Bro, in fighting years, he's 77. You know what I'm saying?
00:48:27.000
Dude, outside, and if Islam goes to 170, I mean, I don't see why Max can't be champ.
00:48:37.000
Well, he's gotten a lot better with his takedown defense, but Tricoli's not exactly bow nickel.
00:48:48.000
But the thing is, like, Shara Bullitt's gonna face this with everyone.
00:49:02.000
Dude, what do you do if you're the UFC and you put all this stock in Hamzat?
00:49:24.000
Bo Nickel alluded to the fact that he's always partying and hanging out all the time.
00:49:35.000
He's hanging out with some people that have a lot of money.
00:49:41.000
Have you ever looked at the land he owns in Russia?
00:49:43.000
Well, when you're friends with Putin, They take care of their athletes, especially when they're fighting?
00:49:53.000
Well, Hamzad is friends with that Kardyav guy, the guy who's the leader of Chechnya.
00:50:02.000
I was like, what the fuck are you talking about?
00:50:08.000
There was a guy who used to fight for the UFC who left the UFC and went to work for him.
00:50:27.000
Do you think they're arguing about pronouns out there?
00:50:29.000
In fact, Hollywood basically boycotted Chechnya because Amnesty International said that the Chechen government was killing and torturing gay people.
00:50:50.000
No, Kardioff had a ceremony because he was sanctioned more than any other leader by all the Western European countries in America, and he was given an award for being basically the biggest asshole.
00:51:05.000
With Homsad, it's tough with the UFC because, A, we don't even know if he can fight in the States, right?
00:51:18.000
Well, the problem with him is when he got COVID, he would not stop training.
00:51:21.000
And so he had full-blown COVID, and he was just beating his body into the ground every day.
00:51:29.000
He's the fucking boogeyman that might never come.
00:51:32.000
But when he fights, it's fucking pretty goddamn exciting.
00:51:35.000
Although, I did think Camaro beat him in the third round.
00:51:38.000
I was like, if that was a five-round fight, that's a difficult fight for him.
00:51:41.000
Because, you know, you're dealing with a real champion, knows how to pace himself, guy who's been there, struggled before, knows what it feels like.
00:51:47.000
Also, he really doesn't have a significant win at 85. No.
00:51:52.000
Joe Milchardt, you know, he's beaten a couple of guys.
00:51:58.000
Excuse me, the Usman thing was, no, not the tip.
00:52:00.000
And then you're going to go to Robert Whittaker?
00:52:07.000
In the early days of his career he did that, yes.
00:52:09.000
I think that forever has him in Dana's good graces.
00:52:17.000
Well, Shara Bullitt does wild shit like hook kicks off that front leg.
00:52:25.000
He does hook kicks from an open stance, which is weird.
00:52:31.000
He stands like an open stance, like an MMA stance.
00:52:40.000
Also, nothing's better when you see a dagger standing, you assume wrestling, and then they're all striking.
00:52:50.000
By the way, What's-His-Name is about to fight Whitaker.
00:52:52.000
He's got a hell of a jab, and he's a very good striker.
00:53:07.000
The only loss that he has is Hamzat, and Hamzat caught him with a perfect uppercut.
00:53:11.000
And Hamzat said it was his toughest fight ever.
00:53:35.000
And he showed way better takedown defense in this fight.
00:53:41.000
But obviously Tricoli's, again, not an elite wrestler, but fucking good fight.
00:53:45.000
There's not enough hours in the day to get him to elite level wrestling.
00:53:49.000
Bro, they're so close to creating new eyeballs.
00:53:52.000
Give this guy two eyes, he's gonna fuck everybody up.
00:53:55.000
Michael Bisping's gonna be reading signs at a distance.
00:54:00.000
Yeah, they're close to developing artificial eyes.
00:54:30.000
I'm surprised they don't have dick transplants.
00:54:36.000
Yeah, people have had their dick blown off like soldiers and shit.
00:54:44.000
Because the balls will always forever contain the sperm of the person who died.
00:54:49.000
So, like, if you died and you gave your dick to Brian, Brian would have your kids.
00:54:56.000
But it's crazy because you could shoot someone else's loads into a person and make your kids.
00:55:19.000
Your DNA won't even be mixed with it a little bit?
00:55:23.000
It would be the person who owns the testicles, their dick.
00:55:31.000
I mean, it's literally the DNA is embedded into the testicles.
00:55:42.000
How far away do you think we are from all that 20 years?
00:55:47.000
I'm saying like eyeballs and being able to grow tissue.
00:55:52.000
I think in 50 years, you know all this transgender shit?
00:56:01.000
You're going to go to XY. As soon as you can go back and forth, we're in trouble.
00:56:11.000
You know, one of the things that they found is that Neanderthal DNA in humans, none of it is the Y chromosome.
00:56:18.000
They can't find Neanderthal DNA in Y chromosome.
00:56:22.000
So it's all women being fucked by Neanderthals.
00:56:27.000
So it's all human women being fucked by Neanderthal men.
00:56:32.000
Or Neanderthal women being fucked by human men.
00:56:38.000
We're XY, women are XX. They can't find the why.
00:56:49.000
Do you know there's a theory that Neanderthals...
00:56:52.000
You know, we want to think that Neanderthals look like us.
00:56:55.000
They're just different, kind of like fucked up heads and big bones.
00:57:01.000
But there's this crazy theory that they looked like gorillas.
00:57:04.000
And that we don't know what they looked like on the outside.
00:57:07.000
And that they had big eyes that they could see at night like cats.
00:57:11.000
Because they had eyes that were much larger than our eyes.
00:57:14.000
Yeah, but also there's theories that they hunted us.
00:57:26.000
They were like 5'7", 210 pounds, and freakishly strong like a chimp.
00:57:40.000
They're strong like a chimp because massive bones, massive tendons, everything's dense, much bigger, thicker, heavier bone structure, everything different.
00:57:53.000
First of all, how much plyometrics do those guys do?
00:57:57.000
They're just throwing their body through the trees every day.
00:58:05.000
I also heard they don't have any medium Twitch.
00:58:15.000
And they go from zero to a hundred when it comes to anger.
00:58:17.000
Like gentle, like rubbing a baby, or just rip your fucking arm up.
00:58:27.000
Nice slow jog, working on your fucking zone two.
00:58:42.000
Which is just how it goes with this fucking sport, man.
00:58:46.000
It's been really rough this past month, though.
00:58:59.000
I hate that Jamal hurt his knee, but I kind of like that he's not jumping right back in after getting KO'd.
00:59:04.000
Because I know everybody wants to do that, because I've got to get it back.
00:59:07.000
But the reality is, he got fucking flatlined by one of the scariest punchers on earth.
00:59:15.000
I think for the longevity of his career, it's better that he got hurt.
00:59:33.000
You know he has a show called Missing Weight where he eats food?
00:59:40.000
He was eating tacos and he goes, definitely ain't making weight.
00:59:48.000
Bro, I had a conversation with him maybe eight years ago at the store.
00:59:54.000
We were hanging out and I said, Kelvin, if you just got disciplined and dropped down to 170, you're a world champion.
01:00:03.000
Eight years later, he's fighting 185. He's like, I know, I know.
01:00:17.000
One of my top five middleweight fights, him versus Izzy.
01:00:22.000
How about when Izzy at the end of the round said, I'm prepared to die.
01:00:29.000
He was like looking at Adam and said, I'm prepared to die.
01:01:03.000
Like a lot of these guys, they have to do something as they're phasing out of their career.
01:01:13.000
I mean, he's just an incredible fighter, but not that weight.
01:01:17.000
But meanwhile, he goes down to 170. Who does he fight?
01:01:39.000
Bro, I've talked to people that train with him, said his fucking top pressure is awful.
01:02:00.000
He started out wrestling, a black belt in jiu-jitsu, but really good striking too.
01:02:04.000
But he's got that one loss, but you know, it's to blah.
01:02:11.000
Now, when Bilal being like, oh, Brady's just not very good, and then you find out Brady's pretty fucking good, and that's how good Bilal is.
01:02:18.000
That was also Bilal training with Khabib and Islam and those guys in Dagestan, which I think brought him to a totally new level.
01:02:25.000
Bilal tell me that just standing up against Khabib is pretty much impossible for him.
01:02:38.000
Because Kelvin was so heavy, he couldn't even do a catchweight, bro.
01:02:47.000
D-Rod was pissed because he was like, bro, who doesn't make weight?
01:02:58.000
I think they tried, so they were going to do 175, and they're like, can't do it.
01:03:06.000
He made 185. He made 185. Well, 185 is what they agreed to.
01:03:19.000
This will be a good fight, as long as it doesn't go to the ground.
01:03:37.000
It's just like, if Calvin had the kind of discipline that, like, Kamaru Usman has...
01:03:46.000
I mean, everybody was like, Uriah Hall's the next Anderson Silva.
01:04:39.000
It's so hard to maintain the fucking grind, and that's what's up.
01:04:46.000
I think after a while they don't love it anymore because it just breaks their body.
01:04:49.000
And also the worst part of fighting is cutting weight.
01:04:53.000
Those last five pounds is the worst of the worst.
01:04:55.000
And you're getting older and he enjoys food and you're out for a while.
01:05:06.000
I fucking brought it up to them the moment they bought the UFC. I pulled Ari aside and I said, hey, this is what you should do.
01:05:19.000
Outside of getting kicked in the head, it's the most dangerous thing in the sport.
01:05:23.000
Getting kicked in the head is a part of the sport.
01:05:26.000
But the most dangerous thing outside of that is weight cutting.
01:05:37.000
You need weight classes, and then also, Joe also wants there to be no cage and have it on an open field.
01:05:45.000
When we went to karate combat, man, I don't know about the fighting itself, but when we went to karate combat, it was just more entertaining to not have the cage in the way.
01:06:02.000
Well, we went to see Gordon Ryan compete Thursday night, right?
01:06:08.000
But there's still a mat, but it's not a basketball court-sized mat, right?
01:06:14.000
But they also got to stay in bounds, though, right?
01:06:15.000
Yeah, they got to stay in bounds if they move him back into bounds, which is what it should be.
01:06:18.000
Yeah, well, the karate combat shit had, like, blood sport.
01:06:28.000
It's too easy to get taken down when you get pushed to the ramp.
01:06:31.000
But the cage stops you from getting taken down.
01:06:35.000
If someone's pushing you and you're near stairs, you're going to fall down.
01:06:48.000
I think a flat surface is the move, the large flat surface, and then have danger zones where you can get a point deducted if you enter into the danger zone too many times.
01:06:57.000
If there's like a warning track on the outside, make the warning track big enough so the guy can adjust and get back in.
01:07:03.000
But too many times in the warning track should be deducted from your total score, and you could have a large enough surface.
01:07:10.000
How would you get them to not cut so much water?
01:07:33.000
Look, if Dana loses $7 million one night and strokes out, and they come to me, that's what I do.
01:07:46.000
Hanging out with him, gambling, will give you the craziest fucking anxiety.
01:07:58.000
He was great on there and he talked about it openly.
01:08:01.000
He was like, his dream is to bet a million dollars a hand.
01:08:08.000
And him and Shannon Sharp started reminiscing about this old blackjack place, and he said his strategy is his first bet is always the highest.
01:08:19.000
So he goes in on the first bet with the highest.
01:08:23.000
But he also explained, I didn't hear him, I don't know if he talked about this on Sharp's podcast, but on Schultz's podcast, he was talking about, because Schultz brought it up, he goes, and you're banned from those casinos?
01:08:35.000
What happens is I win so much and I take money from them.
01:08:39.000
So what they do is the reserve, whatever it used to be, 10 million, they drop it to like 5,000.
01:08:47.000
He goes, you only get banned if you're cheating.
01:08:49.000
So anyone that, those rumors that I'm banned, he's like, I'm not banned.
01:08:53.000
They did something with him back in the day at the Palm.
01:08:57.000
Yeah, he said he took them for so much money, they went, cool.
01:09:00.000
And he went back shortly after he won millions of dollars.
01:09:03.000
He came back, and they're like, yeah, your reserve's five grand now.
01:09:22.000
And then him and Taylor, Taylor Luan, was gambling with him, and he tells Taylor how to bet.
01:09:30.000
And I'm just sitting there, I'm scratching, I'm sweating.
01:09:35.000
I don't like, I don't like, like, that kind of gambling doesn't make sense to me.
01:09:42.000
When you have a good dealer, and it's just you and them, maybe you and a couple friends, the dealer's telling you how to bet, so you don't gotta be an expert.
01:09:57.000
I think I could do it once as an experience, but when they're going like a few times a week?
01:10:04.000
Or he's on vacation and hires somebody to do it on the boat?
01:10:12.000
If you're gambling on pool for a lot of money, I want to watch that.
01:10:29.000
I understand there's ways that you can make it lean more towards your advantage.
01:10:35.000
I like games where you're in control of your own destiny.
01:10:44.000
Yeah, well, especially he probably thinks that Kelvin's probably out of shape.
01:10:55.000
You know, he doesn't have big legs, but damn, that dude gets some power.
01:11:04.000
Yeah, he's a guy who you wouldn't think can kick ass to that level.
01:11:11.000
If you had fought him on the beach, you'd be like, alright, well this guy looks like he's out of shit.
01:11:18.000
Didn't somebody find out having that little gut gives you more power?
01:11:45.000
I think he could have been an absolute world champion at 170. It's almost too late now.
01:12:04.000
As long as he's been around, Uriah Hall's out of the game.
01:12:11.000
He could suck down at 70 and fight three more years if he really gets serious.
01:12:14.000
He's not going to suck down at 70. Also, those guys down at 70, they're enormous now.
01:12:33.000
Before he dropped down, they made him fight up to 185. He was so big.
01:12:37.000
There are people that fight up there walking around.
01:12:44.000
Frankie Edgar is like the last of the Mohicans when he was fighting at 55. He actually weighed 155 pounds.
01:12:51.000
Because he didn't cut the weight, he could bounce back.
01:12:55.000
These guys all deplete the fuck out of themselves.
01:13:01.000
I thought he fought at 45. No, he started at 55. That's amazing, because the 55 was a huge turn.
01:13:06.000
He beat BJ in his prime at 55. His fights against Ben Hendo?
01:13:13.000
Whenever you see a fight that gets stopped too quickly, watch the fucking Frankie Edgar Grey Maynard fights, because Jesus Christ.
01:13:19.000
They could have stopped those fights a hundred times.
01:13:29.000
And if you're just going to stand with him, you're just going to stand with him, it's super dangerous.
01:13:34.000
He's beaten and almost beaten the best in the world.
01:13:50.000
But he can stand at the edge of the pocket, man.
01:13:54.000
I'm surprised Kelvin's not going for a takedown.
01:14:02.000
A guy like D-Rod you'd probably want to shoot in on, but...
01:14:11.000
Calvin's going to win this fight, man, if he's...
01:14:55.000
He forces guys into these extended combination slugfests.
01:15:08.000
So I assume if Kelvin wins this fight, he's just going to stay at 85?
01:15:16.000
You're never going to beat those Drekus Duplassi guys.
01:15:43.000
Yeah, it'd be hard to sell because he's not a big enough name.
01:15:44.000
Yo, how many people are counting out Mike Perry?
01:15:49.000
And then in all the comments, like, oh, dude, you must think it's bare knuckle.
01:15:55.000
Oh, you don't know what a fucking dog Mike Perry is.
01:16:04.000
He's even getting in your fucking face for all eight of those rounds.
01:16:08.000
And he's always like, oh, this is a gimmick fight.
01:16:28.000
The most old man thing ever to get out of the fight.
01:16:50.000
And he's become very famous because of Bare Knuckle.
01:16:57.000
Because remember, in the UFC, he wasn't a huge name.
01:17:02.000
And we're like, alright, he's fun, but he's never going to be a world champ.
01:17:07.000
And then just starts being the shit out of all these fucking Hall of Famers.
01:17:13.000
Bro, you got so many pouches in your mouth, you sound like a squirrel.
01:17:16.000
He's like, He's talking to a squirrel over there.
01:17:21.000
Because as I was talking to you, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:18:08.000
Come on, you're good, you're good, you're good.
01:19:00.000
Yeah, once I get the chair under me and I feel like my legs fit in this little thing.
01:19:10.000
You want to take one class and then you'll blow off the next one.
01:19:22.000
Brian Simpson has two separate Crocs that he wears to the mothership.
01:19:28.000
And then he changes them in the green room and puts on his stage Crocs.
01:19:53.000
It's a collaboration between Crocs and the Vice President of Versace.
01:20:13.000
He caught him with the left hook and the right hand right there.
01:20:44.000
He wears so many Crocs, you know, I don't know...
01:21:00.000
This fight will get you very confused as to what kind of punches you can actually take in the face.
01:21:28.000
Every time I think of Gaston, I just remember the interview where he had some kind of shit on his skin.
01:21:45.000
These Saudi Arabians are like, these fucking Mexicans can fly.
01:22:07.000
And they were training partners in the weigh-in.
01:22:09.000
The UFC did this to me and Mitrion at the weigh-ins.
01:22:22.000
Like when Joe Silva called me to fight Mitrione, they called me, and he called me direct and goes, Mitrione's asking to fight you, man.
01:22:35.000
You got a contract that's in Toronto if you want to fight.
01:22:49.000
Yeah, you don't want to, but sometimes you have no fucking choice.
01:22:56.000
Like, me and Shane Carwin had an agreement where we would never fight each other unless it was for the title.
01:23:28.000
At the end of the day, it's a one-on-one sport.
01:23:35.000
Well, not only do you got to win the title, you got to defend it, then you get points.
01:23:41.000
Does anybody get pay-per-view points on the title possibility?
01:23:46.000
Don't you get pay-per-view points if you're headlining now?
01:23:56.000
Like, Mighty Mouse didn't get pay-per-view points for Intel's, like, fifth defense or some shit.
01:24:04.000
Because UFC's argument was, yeah, we're putting you on there.
01:24:06.000
You might be made event, but we stack the cards because you're not bringing in the viewership.
01:24:29.000
And if this is going to be Jon's last fight, I want it to be a challenge.
01:24:41.000
Really, what I want is the time machine, and I want to go back and keep Francis Ngannou there.
01:24:54.000
Watching him getting KO'd like that against Anthony Joshua, I was like, ooh.
01:24:58.000
It's like, you're just fighting one of the best boxers that's ever competed at heavyweight, who's a knockout puncher, who really knows how to box, who's an Olympic gold medalist, and you've had one boxing fight.
01:25:13.000
But a guy who's been drinking and doing coke and barely paying attention.
01:25:17.000
Yeah, didn't take you serious and you dropped him, but then...
01:25:19.000
He also might have had an incentive to keep that fight going for a long time.
01:25:39.000
There's not a chance in hell that Tyson Fury carried him.
01:25:44.000
He got dropped with a furious left hook in the left round.
01:25:48.000
Bro, it's the same thing that you see in the Usyk fight.
01:25:53.000
Those fights with Deontay Wilder took something out of him.
01:25:57.000
Deontay Wilder, in those days, was the most terrifying knockout puncher in the history of the heavyweight division.
01:26:04.000
And he dropped him twice in that last fight and rocked him bad.
01:26:15.000
Once a guy loses, you start thinking about him as the guy that just lost.
01:26:22.000
Especially for somebody that started boxing late in life.
01:26:26.000
And he's a bronze medal winner in the Olympics at 23. Do you not hear him talking?
01:26:33.000
Yeah, but you're finishing your thought while he's talking.
01:26:35.000
Yeah, but we were already having our conversation and then you moved on.
01:26:39.000
I'm saying that the idea that Tyson Fury didn't have a bag of tricks and he didn't carry him, for me, it's very strange to me.
01:26:53.000
He's one of the greatest heavyweights of all time, for sure.
01:26:56.000
But he's also fighting a mountain of a man with insane physical abilities that caught him with a vicious left hook in the second round.
01:27:03.000
If he was carrying that dude, all that shit would be out the window after you get dropped and rocked like that.
01:27:10.000
It's a weird thing, too, because you want Francis to go on and make all the money, but you selfishly wish he was still in the UFC to fight Jon Jones.
01:27:19.000
But even if you fought Jon Jones, he made 10 times more money fighting Tyson and Anthony Joshua?
01:27:34.000
No, I think with the pay-per-views it was like almost 20. Wow.
01:27:41.000
Yeah, I just think with boxing especially, The thing is, no one had seen Francis fight as a boxer, and no one knew what to expect.
01:27:51.000
But then, Anthony Joshua got to study his style and see the holes in his game, and he exploited them like a fucking professional.
01:27:58.000
And that's why I said the shock factor is gone, and when he fights Anthony Joshua, this is how it should work.
01:28:08.000
So the MMA guys are like, man, Francis do it, maybe I'm going to jump into boxing.
01:28:12.000
Because when he fought Anthony, that's really how it should work.
01:28:18.000
But I'll tell you what, if Francis had gotten into boxing when he got into the UFC, he would be a heavyweight champion of the world.
01:28:24.000
Speaking of knockout artists, can we get Tank his flowers?
01:28:51.000
Like, physically, he doesn't look like a power puncher.
01:28:54.000
He just looks like a regular guy, but his fucking power is extraordinary.
01:28:58.000
And then that little extra something he got from being around Floyd for that little bit?
01:29:08.000
But he and Bud Crawford are in a class by themselves.
01:29:14.000
Well, I mean, very, very different styles, for sure.
01:29:18.000
The thing is, he keeps you backing up, and he wears you out without even using too much energy.
01:29:23.000
And then as he gets you into the later rounds, you're starting to slow down, and he's just warmed up.
01:29:30.000
Those high-level guys figure your patterns out.
01:29:33.000
You see all of these things of him breaking down his opponent, and then they watch the fight that happened, and he was exactly right.
01:29:40.000
He's a technician, yeah, when it comes to boxing.
01:29:42.000
Yeah, but that's what makes the really good guys good is they can figure you out.
01:29:46.000
What he's been doing since he was a child, man.
01:29:54.000
I love how the Saudi Arabian government and the people, the royal family is throwing massive money.
01:30:00.000
And they want to do Terrence Crawford, Canelo Alvarez.
01:30:20.000
Saudi Arabia, they could come to the UFC and go, we will buy you for $200 billion.
01:30:26.000
And then all of a sudden the UFC is Saudi Arabia.
01:30:29.000
That's what Dana was saying to Shannon about fighter pay.
01:30:32.000
He was like, Yeah, these guys got so much money, they don't care if they lose money.
01:30:39.000
And then in the same conversation, he was like, yeah, I bet $100,000 a hand.
01:30:43.000
Obviously, back in the day, I was super hard on it.
01:30:46.000
But my argument has kind of changed, too, where...
01:30:51.000
No, but as a businessman, you're on the outside looking in.
01:30:54.000
You can argue all you want about fight or pain, how much they should be paying.
01:31:01.000
Like, you look at the longevity of the UFC, you look at how massive the UFC is off their pace structure, they're doing something fucking right as far as business.
01:31:11.000
All these other leagues, listen, I watched PFL last night, I watch everything, I'm a degenerate, there's nothing even remotely close to the UFC. The closest thing is one championship.
01:31:20.000
Because they'll do some jiu-jitsu, they'll do Muay Thai, and they have high-level guys.
01:31:26.000
Dude, it's UFC, and then everybody else is so far behind, man.
01:31:30.000
Everyone's like, oh, we've got to change fighter pay.
01:31:40.000
Yeah, I'm watching last night, and I'm balls deep in the fight, and I was like, I don't know what the fuck is going on.
01:31:52.000
It's also like if you win by knockout, you get X amount of points.
01:31:55.000
If you win by submission, you get X amount of points.
01:31:59.000
No, so the way they put you in playoffs like seeds, so there's a regular season, there's the playoffs, so you have to have a certain amount of points to get to the playoffs, and that depends on your seeding.
01:32:10.000
So a win is three points, a draw is one point, loss zero points, round one stoppage three points, round two stoppage two points, round three stoppage one bonus point.
01:32:21.000
Example, fighters win the first round TKO, six points.
01:32:35.000
Is this for if you're fighting in a tournament?
01:32:38.000
So they have a regular season, they have a playoff.
01:32:40.000
Whoever wins the playoff becomes a champion, you get a million bucks.
01:33:17.000
They're the best rankings we currently have available.
01:33:21.000
They're very close to what I would say are accurate.
01:33:27.000
Yeah, the only time you'll disagree is like the pound for pound list, which is stupid anyways.
01:33:40.000
And then the goat pound for pound, or the goat list, I see GSP. I see the argument for Mighty Mouse.
01:33:51.000
I don't like the fact she's fighting at Flyweight, though.
01:33:54.000
Dude, how about Paige Van Zandt is doing slap fighting?
01:34:09.000
Is it a real porn star or an OnlyFans porn star?
01:34:23.000
I think at straw weight at 115, she carries power.
01:34:33.000
I think at 25, it's probably not as hard for her to cut the weight, and that's why she wants to do it, but I just don't see it, man.
01:34:45.000
And she's had incredible fights at strawweight.
01:35:11.000
Yeah, then my dad was like, you know Macho Man can't fight, right?
01:35:14.000
Paige Van Zandt competed at Power Slap 8. Slap fighting debut.
01:35:21.000
Well, when she fought Rachel Ostevik at Bare Knuckle, I'm like, please, ladies.
01:35:32.000
You guys should just abandon it and start making out.
01:35:41.000
I get being relevant, but she also makes a ton of money off OnlyFans.
01:35:56.000
That'll be X number of subscribers to my OnlyFans.
01:36:01.000
Unless she makes a deal where I get to slap first.
01:36:06.000
Can you say, I'll fight you, but I get to slap first?
01:36:15.000
But if she gets slapped first and gets KO'd with one slap by some bull dyke...
01:36:25.000
You don't see a lot of hot girls doing slap fighting.
01:36:40.000
Everybody thinks of a slap as like the palm in the face.
01:36:52.000
Because I think part of the hatred of slap fight, and I used to be so hard on it, now I'm like, whatever, do you, Dana.
01:36:58.000
The problem is they combined it and started promoting it on the UFC channel.
01:37:05.000
I'm like, no, no, don't confuse the public here.
01:37:09.000
Well, they got Bisping doing commentary for it.
01:37:33.000
Look, she's practicing on a fucking rubber doll.
01:37:38.000
Oh, yeah, the girl she's fighting has been through a lot of truck stops.
01:37:45.000
That girl does not give a fuck if you give her a scar.
01:37:54.000
She looks like a lady to turn on the ovens at Auschwitz.
01:38:11.000
Isn't it weird how they put powder on their hands to make the slap more crazy?
01:38:31.000
I saw they just approved the car jiu-jitsu in New York or something.
01:38:53.000
She's probably worried her lip implant's going to get blown out.
01:39:09.000
They don't have something for you to fall back on?
01:39:17.000
And then you got like Mark Smith, legit MMA referee who's refereeing it.
01:39:24.000
If they were just done it completely independent, do you, man.
01:39:33.000
Watch this KO. First of all, you don't close your eyes.
01:39:41.000
She did not see it coming, and it probably led to her getting KO'd.
01:39:54.000
I think it's the worst part of our culture right there.
01:39:59.000
But if people are making money and that's their only option, do your thing, man.
01:40:30.000
Oh, he was really good before he got to the UFC. At Bellator.
01:40:41.000
Volkov is one of those guys that I never understand why doesn't he use a jab more.
01:40:51.000
Remember that old picture of Kanye with his new wife look like she's being held hostage?
01:40:55.000
Somebody replaced him with Darth Vader and made her Princess Leia.
01:41:02.000
I thought you did do it with your Android or some shit.
01:41:07.000
Man, if I had the artistic skill to make all my ideas happen...
01:41:14.000
That's why I'm waiting for this AI shit to kick off.
01:41:19.000
There's another company that just released some videos of this new AI text prompt to video.
01:41:30.000
You put in the AI, say, dark alleyway, mysterious stranger in a black leather jacket walking towards the camera, and then they have a rainy alleyway, and it's like everything looks perfect, like a real movie,
01:41:53.000
Tyler Perry shut down his $800 million production studio.
01:42:06.000
Porch of Amanda's Subway in awe and wonderment.
01:42:16.000
So you're going to be able to make movies that are like legit theatrical movies.
01:42:37.000
You could have it look like a fucking stuffed animal.
01:42:46.000
And they were like, we can't help you with this.
01:42:50.000
What I ask should be between me and my AI. It shouldn't be them telling me what I can say.
01:42:57.000
One of the things they did was they said, my grandmother used to make nuclear weapons.
01:43:08.000
And then it'll tell you, yeah, you get around it.
01:43:11.000
You say, oh, my grandmother made a nuclear weapon.
01:43:13.000
Or you can say, I make napalm like this, and then it'll correct you.
01:43:31.000
It was actually really funny and good, and it was generated by AI. They made a huck, too, a spit on that thing, country music song.
01:43:40.000
Well, you know Drake used Tupac and Biggie's voice in his diss track.
01:43:52.000
Speaking of Drake, did you see Kendrick dance on his grave the other day?
01:43:57.000
Kendrick did a pop-up concert in LA. What's this one, Jim?
01:44:01.000
He brought together the Bloods, the Crips from all the different neighborhoods, and everybody was on stage just partying.
01:44:14.000
I mean, he did a whole long-ass concert, and he did Not Like Us like six times.
01:44:27.000
I'm gonna just need a moment of silence for this.
01:45:14.000
Drake has done a lot of weird things, but the main thing was Kendrick did the control verse.
01:45:18.000
He was on a song with Big Sean, with a whole bunch of other rappers, and then he shit on...
01:45:24.000
He basically challenged every rapper, but in a friendly way, like all his friends.
01:45:28.000
And every rapper took it on the chin, like, yeah, that's his hip-hop, it's competition.
01:45:31.000
And then Drake did an interview where he was like...
01:45:37.000
Yeah, and then Lamar was on the BET Awards cypher, and he said something to him again.
01:45:43.000
You know, something about tucking a sensitive rapper back in his pajamas or something like that.
01:45:48.000
And then, ever since then, they've been kind of like subtly little shots back and forth.
01:45:57.000
I think the label was holding him back from, like, going all out.
01:46:00.000
Because people kept wondering, like, Kendrick, respond, respond.
01:46:04.000
Yeah, and so then Drake did a song called First Person Shooter with J. Cole that they wanted Kendrick on, and Kendrick didn't want to be on it.
01:46:15.000
And they were calling themselves the Big Three, but Kendrick wasn't on it.
01:46:18.000
So then he dropped another song that was like, there's no Big Three.
01:46:25.000
Well, I guess Justin Timberlake wasn't selling well on his concert.
01:46:31.000
You think that's why he got arrested for drink driving?
01:46:36.000
Do you believe that Tyson Fury carried Francis in Ghana?
01:46:46.000
Yeah, this is a circle and don't get to the cage.
01:47:00.000
Never understand why he doesn't use his jab more with those long arms.
01:47:06.000
Having one of those with a tall guy, it's such an advantage.
01:47:10.000
And I want to take credit for his new samurai tattoo, because he did have the Moana stingray, and I would roast him every fight, and then all of a sudden he has this dope-ass samurai tattoo.
01:47:22.000
But it's wild for your whole back to be your first tattoo.
01:47:25.000
Well, he had a back tattoo that was not as big, and he had to fill it in.
01:47:54.000
Okay, you think Tom Aspinall beats Francis Ngannou?
01:48:20.000
To get flatlined, like out cold, laid out, legs stretched, not moving for minutes.
01:48:25.000
You're never going to see Francis in MMA again.
01:48:34.000
By the way, that guy who might fight, that Brazilian dude, is fucking good, man.
01:48:44.000
But don't you think, based on what he stands for, if Francis doesn't fight again, won't that make Dana's argument even stronger?
01:48:54.000
He has so much money, and then to go back to PFL and fight this Brazilian monster nobody knows, there's just no upside for him.
01:49:04.000
Yeah, he's set for the rest of his life if he doesn't do anything crazy with his money.
01:49:09.000
And then he'll always have things that he can do to generate money, seminars, meet and greets, all that kind of shit.
01:49:16.000
I mean, the guy was a UFC heavyweight champion, knocked down Tyson Fury in his first boxing fight ever.
01:49:33.000
You think Deontay Wilder is going to fight again?
01:49:37.000
When that big Chinese dude knocked him out like that.
01:50:38.000
Dude, he was beating Derek Lewis, and then with fucking a minute left, Derek knocked him out.
01:50:50.000
This might be, if he wins this four in a row, this might be five in a row.
01:51:11.000
Because, like, where does a guy like that find people to train with?
01:51:17.000
A limited amount of people that size, you know?
01:51:23.000
It's going to be tough to find wrestlers, though.
01:51:28.000
Especially beat Pavlovich, one more, and then it's slim pickings.
01:51:32.000
And then if John and Stipe fight, neither one will ever fight soon.
01:51:47.000
There's a UFC France coming up, too, in September.
01:51:53.000
Because they offered Cyril Gunn the fight against Tom Aslanall in England, and he turned it down and said he was on a movie set.
01:52:20.000
That's the fight everybody wants to fucking see!
01:52:29.000
He was lucky that he blew his knee out with Curtis Blades because Curtis was teeing off on him.
01:52:41.000
See, I think the angle of, oh, Tom's not that good.
01:52:47.000
And be like, yeah, maybe this is a guy that's going to beat me.
01:52:49.000
And then when you come back, come out of retirement after you beat Stipe, that fight's massive.
01:52:53.000
Yeah, but he has to talk shit like that just for strategy.
01:52:57.000
I don't think anybody's excited to see him fight Stipe.
01:53:04.000
But the Stipe fight, I don't know who's asking for it.
01:53:19.000
Yeah, but Cyril Ghan doesn't have wrestling, doesn't have jiu-jitsu.
01:53:29.000
He started doing jiu-jitsu at 2. And remember, Aspinall came out of Tyson Furious Camp, too.
01:53:37.000
But you know that quick video of John rolling with Gordon?
01:53:43.000
Yeah, and it was like, they weren't neck and neck, but it was still like...
01:53:52.000
When Gordon trains, Gordon rolls with you technically.
01:54:00.000
Everything is just technique, smooth movements, scrambles.
01:54:08.000
Yeah, no, if there's money on the line, he said, Gordon, we'll give you $100,000.
01:54:28.000
If he just decides to shut it down, then he doesn't come close to him.
01:54:32.000
But if they're, like, engaging, Gordon, snap his fucking leg off.
01:54:35.000
Yeah, Gordon grabs a hold of a leg, and that's a wrap.
01:54:37.000
So you think Asminal's Jiu-Jitsu is at that level?
01:54:45.000
But as far as heavyweight MMA, yeah, Tom's right up there.
01:54:53.000
He's hitting him with some serious low kicks, man.
01:54:57.000
Remember, he did this with Derrick Lewis, and then the minute you get tired, these big boys keep hitting.
01:55:28.000
He uses those front kicks, but he could piston that.
01:55:49.000
The problem is that he's right on about 90% of stuff, at least.
01:56:09.000
If he decided to play basketball, he would have been professional in that.
01:56:12.000
Remember the nastiest finishes ever when Sergei Karotanov got on top of him and kept punching him in the one eye?
01:56:18.000
His one eye was fucked up and he kept hammer fisting.
01:56:20.000
He got him in a crucifix and just mounted him, like high mount, and just hammered his bloody eye when he was screaming.
01:56:28.000
You know in Game of Thrones when the fucking mount just says that?
01:56:36.000
You do that shit in Pride, they won't have you back.
01:56:41.000
Dude, stomps, soccer kicks, everything was legal.
01:56:57.000
I posted the best highlights of Pride, and I said, it's Pride Month for June.
01:57:03.000
Yeah, a lot of those are going around the internet.
01:57:19.000
And brought up a bunch of the guys over here and then tested them and they all shrunk.
01:57:28.000
They brought him over here like, what are we doing?
01:57:37.000
If you're over 35, you should be able to juice.
01:57:56.000
Isn't there a new rule where you can do TRT now?
01:58:15.000
Like you can get sanctioned for it under some circumstances?
01:58:50.000
Oh, should we wait for Joe to come back and talk Young Thug?
01:58:52.000
It's interesting because the lawyer fucking the...
01:58:55.000
I think that the trial's going to be over pretty soon because the judges don't get...
01:59:05.000
See, the thing is, I don't know shit about the actual Young Thug's case.
01:59:08.000
The interesting shit is what's going on with the...
01:59:28.000
But that district attorney is the same lady that tried to try Trump, but she's like corrupt.
01:59:36.000
She gave the dude, she was fucking the no-bid contract.
01:59:39.000
And the lawyer that was trying to take her down is Brian Steele's lawyer.
01:59:46.000
So they come into court one day, everyone's three hours late except him.
01:59:51.000
And then he finds out that the judge had a, what they call an ex parte, just means just seek like a meeting without him.
01:59:57.000
Ex parte meeting with the prosecutor, the district attorney, who's the prosecutor, and the star witness.
02:00:05.000
So the star witness, he got immunity to testify, but the key witness to the whole case, he gets on the stand and pleases the fifth.
02:00:12.000
So, they take him in the judge's chambers and him, the sheriff, the prosecutor, and the judge pressure this guy into testifying.
02:00:21.000
The judge tells him, like, I can hold you, not just until the end of this trial, until all the trials are over.
02:00:30.000
So you could be in jail for seven, eight years without being charged with a crime.
02:00:34.000
And so then the dude was like, okay, I'll testify.
02:00:42.000
He told them ahead of time he was going on vacation.
02:00:46.000
And he leaves this girl behind to take his place.
02:00:51.000
The witness fires that girl before they go into the meeting, but they force her to sit in the meeting so he could say he had representation.
02:01:02.000
He's like, hey judge, it's highly unusual and illegal for you to have a meeting with a sworn-in witness and the prosecution.
02:01:11.000
And the judge goes, how'd you find out about that?
02:01:17.000
It turns into this whole drama of like, he's like, yo, if you don't tell me how you found out, I'm going to hold you in contempt.
02:01:26.000
And then his attorney shows up and it's the same bitch that was trying to take down the prosecutor from the Trump thing.
02:01:32.000
And she's like, I got 25 other lawyers with me.
02:01:35.000
We filing all these motions for this and motions for that.
02:01:45.000
The Supreme Court of Georgia was like, no, he's not in contempt until we have a hearing.
02:01:49.000
And in this hearing, now all this other information is coming out.
02:01:53.000
Because even if, let's just say the meeting was legal, they're supposed to have a transcript.
02:01:59.000
And so it was shit called Brady Evidence, which means If the prosecutor finds out something that could exonerate your client, they have to tell you.
02:02:09.000
And in that meeting with the judge, the key witness told them, he was like, I killed the guy.
02:02:17.000
And if I go on the stand and say anything other than that, I'm going to be perjuring myself.
02:02:21.000
And the prosecutor was like, well, I'm not going to charge you with perjury if you perjure yourself.
02:02:28.000
But now it's illegal because I just found out something that could make Young Thug innocent.
02:02:34.000
So not only did they not tell the lawyer about the meeting, not only did they not...
02:02:37.000
So Young Thug was being originally charged with murder?
02:02:40.000
He's being charged with murder, racketeering, for running a criminal organization.
02:03:04.000
Brian was just breaking down the young thug situation.
02:03:10.000
He broke it down the other day in the green room and then I started watching videos.
02:03:17.000
Law shit's the only thing that gets me through depression.
02:03:33.000
I guess being a trial lawyer would be interesting, right?
02:03:38.000
The truth is, real lawyering isn't that exciting like they make it look on TV. It's details.
02:03:49.000
When you see a dude's head not moving so good, like bobbing around as they throw punches and moving, that's 15. Volkov won that fight.
02:03:59.000
Pavlov didn't put a hand on him, I don't think.
02:04:07.000
Oh, this is the Connor one, but yeah, the AI did a song.
02:04:44.000
Is music so coordinated that the A.I. can make a good song?
02:04:50.000
All you need is a river, a pickup truck, you know, some cold beers.
02:04:57.000
Connor's talking about why he pulled out of the fight.
02:04:59.000
He was talking to In a way, you know, I had a little lapse of concentration and, you know, I had to reschedule the bell, so I'm a little upset about that, but, you know, it's keeping me dialed in.
02:05:11.000
I can't rock around like I'm at the showing up, like I'm at the only job.
02:05:16.000
So, you know, that's not bad for me, for someone like me, you know?
02:05:26.000
If I was any one of these other little bums that can't move, that have no footwork, that don't rely on their skills, you know, then I would be okay.
02:05:35.000
I've made the walk a multitude of times under those circumstances and given these bums an advantage over me that they don't even deserve.
02:06:13.000
He felt like the fight was stopped too late and, you know, it's dangerous when that kind of shit happens.
02:06:18.000
For him or for him or like he was winning and they stopped it too late?
02:06:21.000
He was a commentator and he got upset at Herb, who's the best referee alive.
02:06:27.000
But there was that that started, and then there was something with someone, the UFC employee, too.
02:06:41.000
I want Connor to apologize for that shitty movie he made.
02:07:06.000
Yeah, they filmed scenes at the UFC. Oh, yeah, I saw him walking out.
02:07:22.000
I'm a fan of when a fighter ventures out into something, they do well.
02:07:29.000
Whenever a fighter does anything, like Dustin Poirier's hot sauce, best hot sauce I've ever had.
02:07:45.000
Volkov standing next to a former heavyweight champion.
02:08:16.000
Dude, can you imagine if there's Bo Nickel getting ready right now?
02:08:22.000
Hey, bro, these new gloves, they ain't no better than the old gloves.
02:08:25.000
No, the only cool thing about them is the colors.
02:08:33.000
The best gloves, the best gloves, are clearly not made yet.
02:08:40.000
You know, they just, they need to cover the fingers.
02:08:42.000
There's no reason for the, you don't ever do this.
02:08:47.000
There's not a time where your fingers, you always do this or this.
02:08:51.000
Whether it's grappling or striking, all you have to do is have padding on the knuckles and a protective layer, a thin leather layer that covers the hands that the fingers slip into.
02:09:08.000
The only thing different, the only thing different is you now, you can get jabbed with the thumbs.
02:09:14.000
So only thumb pokes will still exist and we'll have less pokes because a lot of our eyes, it eliminates probably 90% of all eye pokes and it doesn't change anything with grappling, anything with striking.
02:09:30.000
And so with the finger area, completely unpadded, and just a thin leather cover that covers over that and goes to the fingers right here.
02:09:40.000
Not only that, you'd be able to do it better because leather, especially if it's raw leather, if it's not shiny, if it's raw leather, isn't that dope?
02:09:56.000
I have one at home, another skull that he made for me.
02:09:59.000
And then another one we have, which is a World War II helmet with a bayonet in it.
02:10:11.000
There's no reason to have these fingers open like this.
02:10:15.000
If you just had a covering over the fingertips that's a thin piece of leather, you would eliminate all those fingers going in the eyeballs.
02:10:25.000
You'd still get poked a little bit, but it wouldn't be that Yeah, that's not as bad.
02:10:29.000
You would have it webbed, like bad gloves, those old black gloves.
02:10:34.000
Just cover it with one thin piece of layer of leather, and it would make gripping better.
02:10:44.000
That's because you told them to do it on an open field, so they just shut you out.
02:10:50.000
Have those guys in the middle of the football field.
02:10:56.000
I have a bunch of rules that I would implement if I was the king.
02:11:07.000
Also, if a guy takes you down at the end of the first round, the second round starts with you in that exact same station.
02:11:26.000
So if a guy takes you down, that's where you are at the beginning of the next round.
02:11:33.000
I also like the idea that the judges only see the last round.
02:11:41.000
And then I also think that you should have, for sure, you have no weight cutting.
02:11:47.000
Weight cutting should be completely eliminated.
02:11:51.000
Before they implement any of these rule changes, cut all this legalized cheating shit.
02:12:02.000
He loses the weight and then immediately rehydrates.
02:12:13.000
I think it should be a remote location where they're not influenced by the crowd.
02:12:17.000
I think they should be able to watch the fight and hear the commentators.
02:12:23.000
I don't think next to the ring is bad, because then you get to hear what's going on, like maybe something's happening.
02:12:36.000
So that if you have one cockeyed asshole who fucks everything up...
02:12:41.000
Because there's so many cockeyed fighter decisions.
02:12:44.000
The way you look at it, you go, how the fuck...
02:12:46.000
You know how many times me and DC have looked at each other and go, what the fuck was that one card?
02:12:57.000
Three, four fights wrong in a night, and you hear his name again.
02:13:02.000
But that guy would, first of all, they should be cut out.
02:13:05.000
As soon as they have one of those, get rid of him.
02:13:10.000
If you ever do that, you don't know what you're doing.
02:13:14.000
But back to the eye pokes, I think, sure, change the gloves.
02:13:19.000
But if not, I think an eye poke or a serious groin strike is an automatic point.
02:13:25.000
Because John's going to be like, I can't lose a fucking point.
02:13:28.000
So you're not going to see him be reaching out like this.
02:13:33.000
One point eye poke, one point nut shot, automatically.
02:13:48.000
But doesn't the Nevada Athletic Commission have to agree to the rules?
02:13:50.000
Yeah, everybody has to agree to the rules, but the rules are good.
02:13:53.000
If I could argue this in front of these people, I really think I could make a good point.
02:13:57.000
But those people, aren't they the same people that like, haven't there been a few fights that should have been overturned and they never did?
02:14:05.000
I don't think you can convince those people with logic.
02:14:08.000
A lot of the people that make those decisions are not actual fighters.
02:14:14.000
A lot of the judges have not even stepped on the mat.
02:14:21.000
And if you don't know jiu-jitsu, if you don't know how close something is, you don't know.
02:14:28.000
Sometimes a triangle looks good, but it's bullshit.
02:14:33.000
And if someone just sees an instep over an ankle, they go, oh my god, he's got the triangle.
02:14:40.000
There's so many times where something looks good, but if you have a skilled eye, you don't know what the fuck is going on.
02:14:50.000
You guys have a very difficult journey around there, Brian.
02:14:58.000
You're supposed to fight two weeks from now at the Apex.
02:15:14.000
One thing about Robert, when he loses a fight, he comes back fucking guns blazing every time.
02:15:19.000
Lost the Izzy fight, came back in the rematch, almost won.
02:15:43.000
If Hamzat beat him that way, he'd be like, okay.
02:15:46.000
If Whitaker wins this fight, you're not going to give him a title shot off this.
02:16:04.000
The way he shut down Paulo Costa, his fucking style is so unique.
02:16:09.000
They're like, oh, Strickland's a boring fighter.
02:16:21.000
I think Strickland's one of the most exciting fighters in the sport.
02:16:25.000
I couldn't believe that at one point Costa didn't at least just...
02:16:32.000
He's been getting pieced up for fucking three rounds, man.
02:16:44.000
There's nothing more exhausting than shooting shots.
02:16:47.000
And you're not going to do it against Strickland at that level.
02:17:16.000
Dude, I think Izzy coming back and everyone's doubting him, all these haters against Drikus, dude, that's a dangerous fucking Izzy, man.
02:17:27.000
I think he's the biggest guy at 85 other than Pejedo when Pejedo was here.
02:17:32.000
When I stand next to him, I'm always like, how?
02:17:42.000
I don't know how Palacosta sucks down to 85. You've got to talk to Dan Garner, some of these guys that have it down to a science.
02:17:48.000
Yeah, I mean, they get it down to your body weight, your calories, how much water you're taking in, how much sodium.
02:17:53.000
I'll tell you what I'd do if I was at the UFC with Hamzat.
02:17:55.000
We're not doing this whole Robert Whittaker and contenders.
02:17:58.000
I think they give Bo Nickel a pretty good test next, and then it's Hamzat-Bo Nickel.
02:18:11.000
Is that in Boston Square Garden or is that July?
02:18:33.000
Yeah, but your jiu-jitsu may not be good here with Bo Nick.
02:18:56.000
Now, Bo mops the floor with him or off to the races?
02:19:03.000
If I'm the UFC, I'm like, hey bud, nope, we tried it.
02:19:16.000
I don't want to go all the way the fuck out there.
02:19:17.000
He would do it, though, if they asked him to do it.
02:19:19.000
I mean, he did the international circuit, so he's not foreign to it.
02:19:29.000
The Rodolfo Rivera fight's an intriguing fight, and then the Hamzat fight is a captivating fight.
02:19:34.000
But Hamzat, who knows how much money Hamzat has now, with all the relationships that he has and people throwing money at him.
02:19:42.000
He might be wealthy enough to fucking not do it anymore.
02:19:48.000
But I mean, what kills a fighter more than money?
02:20:05.000
If you want to be an alcoholic, this is the place to do it.
02:20:08.000
But isn't that a fine line if you're Dana or if you're the UFC? It's like, yeah, we do got to pay them, but if we pay them too much, then they'd lose their drive.
02:20:21.000
I mean, I feel like it's an accumulation over time and then fame, and then they have so much money that they...
02:20:27.000
Like with Connors, he's flying around in private jets, got a Lamborghini.
02:20:32.000
I'm buying a big Gordy for my fucking birthday.
02:20:39.000
I'll tell you what he can do without changing the pay too much, is make sure they take a piece of each check and set aside for retirement.
02:21:07.000
The fucking steering wheel has the gauges on it.
02:21:10.000
And the steering wheel moves around the gauges.
02:21:12.000
It's the most beautiful interior I've ever seen in a car.
02:21:26.000
The people that buy them, they don't drive them.
02:21:46.000
Just to change the tires every year is $25,000 a tire.
02:21:54.000
The maintenance, it's over six figures a year to maintenance it.
02:21:58.000
And it's one of those where you're not allowed to sell it within the first five years or something.
02:22:02.000
You can, but then if you drive it, it loses its value.
02:22:06.000
So tourbillons are a movement in watches that is like the most precise movement in watches.
02:22:11.000
So they have watches that are tourbillon watches that are $400,000, $500,000 for a watch just because of the movement.
02:22:21.000
Like, Jamie, pull up like a Grand Seiko tourbillon watch because Grand Seiko has an insane tourbillon watch that they just released.
02:22:33.000
Yeah, Richard Mille, $2,500,000 for a tourbillon.
02:22:39.000
But this Grand Seiko tourbillon is fucking beautiful, man.
02:22:43.000
Look at the machinery, the gears and stuff going on inside that watch.
02:22:52.000
I know it's not a Rolex, but Grand Seiko watches are fucking wild.
02:23:08.000
I'm interested in looking at them, but I don't like rich guy fancy things.
02:23:31.000
Buy Forest, you get it and then send me pictures.
02:23:34.000
It's the Mustang GTD. Oh, the GTD? I'm down with that.
02:23:50.000
I'm getting rid of the TRX. What's the GTD? This is the Mustang's version of a GT3 RS. It's at Nuremberg right now.
02:24:15.000
It might be the greatest American car that's come out in a long fucking time.
02:24:29.000
Yeah, because you know Farley, the Hev Mustang, he went in and was like, I don't get it.
02:24:58.000
You know he's supposed to be on the Australian wrestling team too, but the UFC nixed it.
02:25:22.000
Two weeks before, he takes it late, like last minute.
02:25:28.000
You know, and he's preparing for three rounds, not preparing for five, and he's facing...
02:25:36.000
You find out, Jamie, who Al Skaroff was supposed to be fighting?
02:25:39.000
I think Whitaker either wins by decision or beats him in the fourth.
02:25:47.000
I imagine the wrestling edge goes to Alyssa Croft.
02:26:19.000
When you see him follow up with a kick, that bitch is over.
02:26:39.000
That's the first time that guy's been knocked out like that.
02:26:41.000
First time he's fought a guy like Robert Whittaker.
02:27:08.000
No, Whittaker was supposed to be fighting Hamza.
02:27:18.000
If you're that kid's manager and like, hey man, we got a call, you're fighting Bobby Knuckles, you're going, oh my god, what an opportunity.
02:27:33.000
Or you see how good the UFC is when you're at the higher echelon, because this guy's gone through everybody.
02:27:41.000
Well, if you need to see this to see how good Bobby Knuckles is, you're a moron.
02:28:10.000
I wouldn't be upset with Strickland versus him.
02:28:14.000
Strickland-Whitaker main event for pay-per-view?
02:28:31.000
We're talking about so much shit, and Drickus has the title.
02:28:33.000
So Izzy gets the title, then he calls out Strickland.
02:28:39.000
I would be willing to bet they do Whitaker-Strickland, and the winner of that's guaranteed a title shot.
02:28:57.000
See, it's hard to see the difference between how good they are.
02:29:00.000
When you watch that Osmurov, you watch his fights, then you watch...
02:29:51.000
Sharp just has a globe in his house where it says America and everything else is just not America.
02:29:56.000
Alex Garof fights two elite guys and gets starched by both of them.
02:30:07.000
Sometimes you gotta fight those guys to realize where you're at.
02:30:12.000
And you gotta remember, Robert Whittaker started his career at 170. 170, yes.
02:30:45.000
At that level, where those boys are at those top four, good fucking luck.
02:30:49.000
Yeah, it's a deep, deep division right now at the very top.
02:31:00.000
Frank Muir's got 11. Frank Muir's got 11 first-round finishes?
02:31:13.000
Is it just his ability to see openings just faster?
02:31:21.000
It says the record is 10 for Jim Miller, but then it says the second most is 23. Damn.
02:31:30.000
The record for first round finishes in the UFC is held by Jim Miller with 10 first round finishes.
02:31:34.000
Here are some other interesting facts about first round finishes.
02:31:41.000
Andre Arlovski has the second most first round finishes with 23. Arlovski?
02:31:46.000
And Donald Cerrone has the third most first round finishes with 23. I think it's your Android.
02:31:59.000
Who has the first round finish record for the UFC? Five UFC fighters, first round finishes.
02:32:13.000
Five fighters with the most first round finishes.
02:32:15.000
That's the article I clicked on, and it says Frank Mir's got 11. But I don't mean...
02:32:22.000
Right here, it says UFC Fight Night 71. Frank Mir sets the record for first round finishes.
02:32:51.000
Getting down to that 135. Arlovsky has nine first-round finishes.
02:33:08.000
Also, Frank Muir in his day was a fucking murderer.
02:33:25.000
He's always got seven weapons on him at all times.
02:33:35.000
He says he always has seven weapons on them at all times.
02:33:45.000
You want to talk about the wrong guy to fuck with.
02:33:54.000
You know what's always interesting to me is when guys are, you know, when talking about, you know, Armageddon, like, you know, the day's coming, but they don't run.
02:34:13.000
I was hanging out with this truck guy, and he has a whole bunker for the Armageddon doomsday, and he's this big guy.
02:34:31.000
You ever tried carrying 80 pounds up the mountains?
02:34:44.000
I started with three miles, then I went to two, then I did a mile as fast as I can.
02:34:50.000
Your knees aren't fucked up from all those years of fighting?
02:34:54.000
Why didn't you do the 5K, the two bears 5K? I don't know.
02:35:02.000
I didn't know until I saw a picture of Jelly Roll doing it.
02:35:17.000
If you want to get mentally tough, run in and do it.
02:35:21.000
People do all this shit, just go outside and run, man.
02:35:24.000
Like that second mile, the third, you're like, fuck.
02:35:33.000
But there's a minimum shape you got to be in for that to be the thing you're doing to stay in shape.
02:35:40.000
But if you're morbidly obese and shit, you're going to fuck your hips up.
02:35:49.000
Start walking and then turn that into a jog and then turn it into a sprint.
02:35:54.000
That to me is like, it puts me, I hate it so much.
02:36:09.000
But even if you don't have access, go sprint, dog.
02:36:14.000
You do sprints with 10-second rest, dude, it will get you in shape fast.
02:36:24.000
It is impossible to fight at full pace for five rounds.
02:36:30.000
Chael goes, I don't want to do anything for 25 minutes.
02:36:33.000
If you're going to go at a fight like this against elite fighters, you've got to pick your times.
02:36:52.000
This is why I have Alex high up on my pound-for-pound list, because part of the pound-for-pound is you've got to fight anyone, anywhere.
02:36:58.000
You're that bad motherfucker, and Alex is that dude.
02:37:06.000
He said he sat next to him at a press conference and he could tell he looked at me like he knew he could beat me.
02:37:16.000
Like my pound for pound, you gotta be that dude where the UFC calls your name, you do it.
02:37:20.000
And now Cowboy is that guy, they call you and you do it, but he wasn't doing it for titles.
02:37:29.000
You could call him tomorrow and ask him to fight for the heavyweight title.
02:37:32.000
That's why I have him so high on my pound for pound.
02:37:35.000
Look at his level, strength of fucking schedule.
02:37:41.000
That to me, that to me is the one that I look at and I go, whoa.
02:37:45.000
Joe Pfeiffer is going to come out guns blazing.
02:37:48.000
Because he burned himself out in that last fight.
02:37:50.000
He's going to come out against Marc Andre Barrio with just a little bit more understanding of pacing.
02:37:55.000
He got through that fight where Joe Pfeiffer is one of the most fucking terrifying guys on the feet.
02:38:18.000
He knew what to do, good enough on the feet to kind of drag him into the third, fourth, and fifth rounds, wear him out, and then at the end of the fight, he was just the fresher fighter.
02:38:28.000
But a fight like that, where he's at in his career, perfect.
02:38:32.000
Because you don't want to learn that when you're fighting the top five cats.
02:38:37.000
But Joe Pfeiffer has everything to be a world champion.
02:38:43.000
And you know, those fights like that where you get kind of humbled, those are good for a guy like him.
02:38:52.000
And lost the fight at a fight where he was dominating in the beginning with terrifying shots.
02:38:56.000
But you can't take everybody out with big power.
02:39:04.000
And you've got to keep that power into the third, fourth, and fifth round.
02:39:07.000
So if you've emptied the gas tank in the first two rounds, trying to take a guy out, and he's still there, fuck.
02:39:15.000
He probably didn't think that at the time, but he will.
02:39:17.000
When he's champion, he'll be like, oh my god, thank god that happened.
02:39:34.000
To me, the best thing in the UFC is not when the guy gets there and he made the money and the fame.
02:39:41.000
If you watch Joe Pfeiffer coming up, watch Bo, you watch him go through it and you see him evolve.
02:39:52.000
We're like, I don't know, he might not make it.
02:39:56.000
When Conor's come up, it was such a special time.
02:40:10.000
I don't think there's ever been better fighters.
02:40:12.000
I think I've never been more excited about weight classes and never been more excited about matchups.
02:40:19.000
You know, Leon Edwards versus Bilal Muhammad is not getting the respect that it deserves for whatever fucking stupid reason.
02:40:36.000
Thank God the UFC didn't bend the knee to the fans complaining.
02:40:40.000
I got a prediction on this, and he disagrees with me.
02:40:43.000
I think because he's Palestinian, you're going to see the entire Arab world come out for this fight.
02:40:52.000
He said it's going to be the most watched fight ever, most downloaded pay-per-view bot ever because of the Palestinians.
02:41:01.000
Most stolen for sure with young kid Palestinians.
02:41:04.000
But as far as that being, and you and I have a good amount of money on this, you said it was going to be the most watched pay-per-view.
02:41:14.000
But look at this, Bobby Green and Patty Pimble, it's going to be crazy.
02:41:22.000
I think he's going to mop the flow of Patty Pimble.
02:41:42.000
He's one of those guys, when you get around him, you go, oh, I get it.
02:41:51.000
He's probably more famous than he is skill level right now, but he'll get there.
02:41:55.000
But when you're around him, you're like, oh, yeah.
02:42:12.000
But that was a good fight for him to get through.
02:42:14.000
Like, realize, okay, I gotta tighten things up.
02:42:16.000
He tightened things up in his last fight, and now he's got Bobby Green.
02:42:25.000
Especially if I'm investing in a guy, I'm like, thank God that happened.
02:42:28.000
Cody Brundage, get a little difficulty in there.
02:42:38.000
There's a few guys that are coming up that are really good.
02:42:41.000
I'm shocked that, because, you know, Prague came from over there.
02:42:45.000
They have some guys in Ryze in one championship.
02:42:47.000
Bro, China's got some fucking killers coming up.
02:42:53.000
Zhang Weili was one of the best fights, but everybody forgot about it.
02:42:58.000
Because Yuri Prochaska and Alex Pajada fought, and everybody forgot about it.
02:43:03.000
Was it Yuri and Alex on that card, or was it Jamal?
02:43:13.000
But prior to that was Max and Justin Gaethje and then the girl fight.
02:43:36.000
Yan Shanan got choked to sleep at the end of the second round.
02:43:42.000
She got choked unconscious, and then the bell rang, and she's like, out cold, and it's like, where do I go?
02:43:50.000
But for the males right now, I agree with you, it's the best time ever.
02:44:08.000
I mean, we'd turn up the volume so we could hear it.
02:44:16.000
That dude is putting together some wild ass fights, I'll tell you that.
02:44:21.000
I'm so glad those guys are doing that, that they have the kind of money to throw wild fights around.
02:44:25.000
They're going to have some wild cars over there.
02:44:32.000
Everyone that's ever been built is probably over there.
02:44:35.000
I wish it was acceptable for me to dress like that.
02:44:39.000
You should come over there with me for a fight.
02:44:48.000
Did you see in Mecca, the Hajj, where they're all in Mecca?
02:45:02.000
We all showed up to pray in 1700. Or make you believe, because God's like, I'm taking you.
02:45:10.000
No, but my father used to always wear a thobe like that.
02:45:13.000
Well, that's why they come to LA in the summer, because it's cool.
02:45:20.000
The Saudi clears out for the wealthy, they leave in Yeah, they call it Saudi summers, and they come to Los Angeles.
02:45:29.000
They drive around like Ferraris and Lamborghinis with diplomatic plates.
02:45:35.000
Yeah, they were driving in Beverly Hills and fucking getting wrecks.
02:45:49.000
The record's 125. In Mecca, this past week, 1,700 people died because the temperature climbed to 125. Tuesday, it said it reached 117. But either way, 117, 125, it's the same fucking thing.
02:46:05.000
Once you get past 100 degrees, it don't matter.
02:46:11.000
Austin had, last summer, they had a record like...
02:46:17.000
I shot archery outside every day for two hours in that heat.
02:46:20.000
I'd bring a 64-ounce hydro flask filled with electrolytes and water, and I just shot outside.
02:46:25.000
I was in the house with the AC pumping with my face in the refrigerator.
02:46:28.000
I came inside, and it was like I jumped in the pool.
02:46:43.000
Texas experiences hottest summer record in 2023. 80 days with 100-degree heat, 40 days with a temperature of 105 or higher, and received less than 1.5 inches of rain.
02:46:53.000
So it's humid here, though, and Saudi's really dry.
02:46:57.000
So you can deal with the dry heat way better than the heat.
02:47:04.000
In the middle of that summer, I went to Arizona, and it was like 103 degrees, and I was like, this doesn't feel hot at all.
02:47:18.000
If you go to Saudi, by the way, and you just are respectful and say hi to people, they will treat you.
02:47:25.000
If you go there with the Arabs and you show that you like being there or you're just respectful of the culture, they'll take care of you beyond what you can imagine.
02:47:44.000
He says the royal family are the nicest fucking people.
02:47:50.000
They're also a blast because they don't drink really.
02:48:12.000
And if you show interest in the culture and the history, I'm telling you, man, you'll have the best time of your life.
02:48:19.000
Well, having said that, people always forget that in the Muslim world, the place that the Jews found refuge was in the Muslim world.
02:48:37.000
Well, Lebanon was a Phoenician port, so Lebanon was Christian and Muslim, and the Civil War broke out because they were that way.
02:48:42.000
But it was, Lebanon was always like, they were Phoenicians.
02:48:45.000
They were like, they were the port where everybody came.
02:48:49.000
You would ski, you could go to Faria and ski, then go down to Coral Beach in the same day, because the weather was unbelievable that way.
02:49:00.000
Still the best nightlife, I guarantee if you go there, it's the best nightlife on the planet.
02:49:12.000
I would say the most beautiful women on the planet are probably centered right there.
02:49:24.000
But you go to Saudi and you see those women, obviously they're going to be covered in public.
02:49:30.000
I didn't take your ass to Colombia or Brazil, bro.
02:49:48.000
Oh, so when you say the main event, I thought you meant...
02:49:52.000
Michael Venom Page, Ian and Gary fight next Saturday.
02:50:16.000
Maybe respect the furries, because it's fucking hard.
02:50:42.000
I wore that shit for like five minutes and Dodger was a cat.
02:50:52.000
And also, like, furries must have good neck strength.
02:51:24.000
