00:00:47.000In all honesty, we like him because we're balls deep in UFC and MMA. But my brother, who's not that big of a fan, is like, this is all he does?
00:01:13.000So for the general fan, like, oh, and this guy talks all this shit, but he's doing it Because talking all that shit, you're like, dude, I want to see this guy get fucked up.
00:01:21.000Even Jon Jones posted, you let everyone down.
00:01:24.000You know, like, Robbie Lawler let everybody down.
00:04:10.000Look, what he did, if you want to put it in perspective for a regular person, Robbie Lawler is one of the biggest fucking savages to ever compete in a sport.
00:04:30.000I mean, to do that over five fucking rounds against one of the greatest welterweights of all time, Robbie Lawler, and win every single fucking round.
00:04:44.000I mean, Robbie occasionally would swing and connect, and then Kobe would immediately hit him three or four times more, and then take him down, or clinch with him, and beat him up, and it was amazing.
00:08:24.000Because Matt Hughes is really close to Robbie Lawler, and he said, what he said for those that didn't watch the fight, he goes, you think Robbie Lawler would take a lesson from his boy Matt Hughes and get off the train tracks when a train is coming?
00:09:43.000But also they don't count either because your contract doesn't, you don't get, when you're a champ, your contract, you get bumped up to higher pay.
00:13:34.000I felt like he was fighting, especially me as a fan of tactics, like he was fighting Wonderboy for two fights, and Wonderboy's the most difficult guy in the fucking sport to look good against.
00:13:45.000He's so difficult to look good against.
00:14:15.000It wasn't a lot of action, but when he delivered, he opened up.
00:14:19.000He landed a fucking haymaker In the first fight Had him really badly hurt.
00:14:24.000He did the same thing in the second fight.
00:14:26.000Had him really badly hurt in a couple spots.
00:14:29.000He's also one of the most active champions.
00:14:30.000But you've got to be able to say that.
00:14:32.000If you're a fan of the sport, what I would say, if I was in Dana White's shoes and I was talking about that fight, I would say, if you're a fan of the sport, you've got to understand that That there are certain fighters where it's very difficult to look good against.
00:14:43.000I understand that if you're a fan and you want blood and you want chaos, it didn't really quite live up to your expectations.
00:14:48.000But that's not what this sport is all about.
00:14:51.000What this sport is all about is two incredibly talented and well-trained killers.
00:14:56.000And they're going after each other and they're both trying to figure out the openings to win.
00:15:17.000The Darren Till story right now, and his story's not over, he's a young kid, but the way he was handled, and I know they've exploded guys in the spotlight and it does work out, and that is professional sports, that's UFC. With Darren Till, you look at...
00:15:30.000All the talent that he had, and it's just...
00:15:38.000I think he's cutting way too much weight to make 170. I really do.
00:15:41.000I mean, that kid, you stand next to him, he looks like a light heavyweight.
00:15:44.000I've always been the guy who goes, man, guys should go up weight classes.
00:15:47.000And now, when Max Holloway went to 55 against Dustin Poirier, it was a good fight, but looks way better at 45. Well, wait about Dustin Poirier.
00:15:56.000But Dustin Poirier going to 155 made his career.
00:16:00.000He was 145, he was struggling, goes to 55, makes his career.
00:16:16.000He's running a lot of really tough guys.
00:16:18.000But like Rockhold from 85 to 205, I was shouting from the rooftops, this is the guy that maybe can compete with John Jones, and then he got in there and just looks slow, lethargic, just a different game.
00:17:54.000So, to me, the shame is a guy like Darren Till if he doesn't bounce back.
00:17:58.000Yeah, maybe, but I think Luke Rockhold really believes that he could get back into the kind of form that he was in when he was world champion.
00:18:07.000I just don't think he could ever make 185 again, and 205 is a different animal.
00:18:11.000There are enormous men that are dropping down to 205. And he looked...
00:21:52.000But that's the nature of the beast, isn't it?
00:21:54.000Well, that's why I hope that having a guy like Corey on my podcast or you having him on your podcast lets people know what a great guy this is.
00:23:24.000If Stipe wins in this fight that's next weekend, I think that Stipe fights Jon Jones as heavyweight and Jon Jones moves up to heavyweight and tries to win the title.
00:23:35.000And then DC fights Jon Jones for the heavyweight title when Jon's the champion.
00:26:17.000I think John goes to heavyweight, everybody's fucked, too.
00:26:20.000Although, him versus DC at heavyweight is so much more interesting than light heavyweight, because DC knocks dudes out, man.
00:26:26.000Right, and John Jones, if he goes up, who knows if he will have the same cardio, who knows if he'll be as fast.
00:26:34.000There's something about guys going up.
00:26:37.000Like, look, Luke Rockhold, same story.
00:26:40.000He goes up to light heavyweight, and he's got all this extra bulk on him now.
00:26:43.000See, I don't think John's going to go up to like 240. I think he's going to come in at a fucking lean, mean 225, 230. Doesn't cut any weight.
00:27:00.000And that's all, I mean, I don't know about now, but especially back in the day when I was at Jackson's, all he really did is go with heavyweights and ragdoll them.
00:27:08.000I'll tell you what, when he fought OSP, I talked to Jackson afterwards, and Greg was saying, I don't like the fact that he's been doing all this powerlifting.
00:27:17.000And he goes, and I feel like that played a part in this fight.
00:27:47.000Maybe we're just not giving these guys enough credit because I think because we think so high of John, whenever it's close, I'm like, ah, John had an off night.
00:27:54.000Or maybe these guys are really fucking good.
00:29:39.000He said, this is very common, that when you buy cheap creatine, cheap creatine often has other shit in it because you're buying it from China and from other places that have unscrupulous mixing.
00:29:51.000Listen, as one of the owners of Onnit, I know that we never had our stuff test positive for steroids, but what we did have is when we looked at the early batches of AlphaBrain, we had it independently tested.
00:30:07.000We didn't know what the fuck we were doing in terms of we hadn't run a supplement company before and there was a lot of learning to do.
00:30:13.000And one of the things that we learned was that when you're buying stuff and then you're having stuff mixed, the people that are mixing it, if you don't get the very best people, you're getting people that mix stuff that don't clean out their vats.
00:30:30.000We never got steroids in ours, but probably because the stuff we're buying is nootropics, which are just...
00:30:35.000Nutrients that enhance brain function.
00:30:38.000So the people that were selling stuff were selling similar things, vitamins and the like.
00:30:42.000But we did get our stuff tainted, in a sense, with other nutrients that weren't supposed to be in there.
00:30:48.000So then we had to do some investigation and then we figured out what the problem was and we adjusted our methods and we changed the people we work with and we did a lot of different things.
00:30:58.000But if you're buying cheap creatine That's what coke dealers use.
00:34:59.000No, but that was the thing is that since he doesn't have social media, and I do, it like magnifies everything.
00:35:06.000Because with all the fucking people that I have, 7 million on Instagram and 5 million on Twitter and 2 million on Facebook, it's like all of that shit.
00:39:00.000Yeah, and when I came back from Italy, you know, I was in Italy for 12 days, when I came back, like the fucking highway, we landed at like 10 o'clock at night, just bumper to bumper on the 405. I was like, this is stupid.
00:39:14.000This is a stupid place to live, because I travel so much.
00:40:36.000So I think you'd have to do a weekend where you're doing two shows a night, Friday, two shows a night, Saturday, and you'd have to do a weeknight somewhere.
00:45:59.000And that comes stock with like 817 horsepower.
00:46:02.000But then Ferrari went, cool story, we're coming out with the 812 Superfast V12. TDF. For the Tour de France.
00:46:10.000But they can't call it the Tour de France.
00:46:12.000They have to call it TDF because Tour de France, the fucking bike boys own it.
00:46:16.000Did you see that shit where this guy had a super fast and he's apparently a very famous designer and he put his sneakers on the roof of this dope fucking Ferrari that he owns.
00:47:17.000Ferrari's trademarks and model cars are associated in your pictures with a lifestyle totally inconsistent with Ferrari's brand perception in connection with performers making sexual innuendos and using Ferrari cars as props in a manner which is, per se, distasteful.
00:47:37.000This behavior tarnishes the reputation of Ferrari's brands and causes Ferrari further material damage.
00:47:44.000In fact, the undesirable connection between Ferrari's trademarks on the one hand and Philippine's line of shoes and the questionable manner in which they're promoted on the other hand is interfering negatively with the rights enjoyed by Ferrari's selected licenses which are exclusively entitled to use Ferrari's trademarks To produce and promote line of shoes, Ferrari brand.
00:52:57.000Just that, you know, The Rock sometimes shows up late and there's trailers and he wanted the biggest trailer and obviously Vin Diesel, you know, he's Mr. fucking Fast and Furious.
00:56:01.000Behind the movie series told The Wall Street Journal, Paywall, that actors including Jason Statham, Dwayne The Rock Johnson, and Vin Diesel have contracts demanding that limit the amount of punishment their characters take in fights.
00:56:12.000Because they don't want to look like bitches.
00:59:56.000Whoever did it, whether it's her boyfriend or whoever it was that edited that video, that lied and put words in his mouth, is so fucking stupid.
01:00:06.000You don't think that they're going to do something about that?
01:00:10.000When they edited that video to say that whenever I'm talking in public, I'm not telling the truth, which is not what he said at all, and then they have it edit and cut right there?
01:02:51.000But no, they market her as a destroyer, which she is in her career.
01:02:54.000The scary destroyer, but also in a good way.
01:02:57.000Look, if you look at her fights, you look at the fight with, look, when it gets dark is when you go back to the non-testing days, like the Gina Carano fight, when she had veins coming out of her face, and she looked like a fucking murderer.
01:03:09.000And Gina Carano, this is my argument for, I don't mean to interrupt you, but Gina Carano, A, the hottest Chica to have her fight in MMA. B, fought Cyborg when she was juiced to the gills.
01:04:52.000And I was talking to her about why does she think that kind of cyborg has gone down this road in her career?
01:04:59.000And then I pitched her on, you know, if I'm the UFC, this might be completely fucking wrong, I don't know, but this is how I would do it and this is what they're doing is what I think.
01:05:08.000But if I'm the UFC, as nice as a person cyborg is, there's no other girl walking this planet that looks like cyborg, really.
01:07:10.000One judge thought that Tiago won the fight.
01:07:13.000I don't agree with that judge, but that's how close that fight was.
01:07:17.000There was no one that thought that Spencer won that fight after it was over, but it was amazing that she was able to endure the fucking beating that Cyborg put on her.
01:08:48.000It wasn't that interesting to me until I came on her a few months ago and you were talking about it.
01:08:52.000And I'm like, that is a really good fucking fight because if you go back and watch the first fight with Stipe and DC, DC wasn't dominating and then clipped him.
01:09:10.000The reason why I like it is he was coming off of that fucking crazy war with Francis Ngana where he took some big shots, particularly in the first round.
01:09:17.000How impressive is that now that we know what Francis is capable of?
01:09:20.000Yeah, and Francis knocks everybody dead.
01:09:22.000And Stipe's the only guy not just to survive Francis, but to beat him.
01:09:26.000He figured it out like a champion, got him to the ground, neutralized all his weapons and beat him.
01:09:32.000I think Francis for Stipe would be different this time.
01:09:36.000I think Francis made leaps and bound improvements to his grappling.
01:10:38.000Tony Ferguson was at 55. That's right.
01:10:41.000And Pettis' first fight at 70. I mean, look, man, when you've been starving yourself, you get to 45 and 55, and then finally you fight at 170 and you knock Wonderboy out with a Superman punch.
01:10:52.000You've got to think, hey, maybe this is my weight class.
01:10:56.000And the only question with Nate Diaz, and I would assume Nate Diaz, or I'm sorry, Anthony Pettis is the favorite, because Nate Diaz ended up fighting a hot fucking second.
01:12:53.000I wonder if it's stress of the fight, if that's what made him fatigued.
01:12:57.000Here's what you've got to pay attention to, is when Mark Henry, who's to me the best coach in MMA, him or Faraz, when he's in the corner, and he must have seen a trainer or something, because he goes, think about your mom.
01:14:32.000It's not a good argument in terms of him being the best of all time, but in terms of being one of the greatest combat sport athletes of all time, for sure.
01:14:40.000Olympic gold medalist and then UFC champion in two different weight classes.
01:14:47.000But the thing about that Kayla Harrison, who's a two-time gold medalist, if she were able to get a championship or in PFL, come over to the UFC, two gold medals?
01:15:13.000And Amanda's going to retire by the time she gets to UFC. Amanda Nunes and Valentina Shevchenko are as good as any fucking male fighter on the planet.
01:18:48.000Look at these weird drawing lines on it, like someone accidentally drew the screenshot thing on it and didn't take it off before they posted it.
01:20:08.000But there's never been a guy as old as him that literally pulls off doing, like, when he smashes somebody in a movie, you're not going, no way.
01:20:16.000It's not like when Bob Barker beat up Adam Sandler and Happy Gilmore.
01:28:54.000Process series of ongoing demonstrations in Hong Kong against the Fugitive Offenders and Mutual Legal Assistance in Criminal Matters Legislation Amendment bill proposed by the government of Hong Kong.
01:29:07.000This legislation was proposed by the Security Bureau in 2019 in response to a murder that occurred in Taiwan.
01:29:14.000The previous year, which the suspect had fled to Hong Kong as a special administrative region, Hong Kong is jurisdictionally distinct from mainland China and maintains a separate governing and legal system under the one country, two systems principle.
01:29:29.000The regional government was unable to transfer the fugitive to Taiwanese authorities, citing a lack of formal extradition arrangements between the two jurisdictions.
01:29:38.000Hey, Hong Kong, pick your battles, bro.
01:29:40.000If enacted the bill would allow local authorities to detain and extradite people who are wanted in countries or territories, then Hong Kong does not have extradition agreements with, including mainland China.
01:29:52.000Well, the problem is that Hong Kong, until certain...
01:29:56.000Yeah, well, Hong Kong was controlled by Britain, right, until a certain amount of time, and then they gave it back to China, and the people that live there are very unhappy with the shift from, I think it was Great Britain.
01:33:56.000And coming from someone who was murdered by his wife when she was on an SSRI and on cocaine, people, when they're on those drugs, it's a varying reaction.
01:34:08.000And suicidal thoughts are very common, as well as homicidal thoughts, very common.
01:34:13.000And also, the feeling that things aren't real.
01:34:16.000The people that I've talked to that were on SSRIs that got off of them, one of the things that they all say is that nothing seemed real.
01:34:32.000For sure, a crazy person with a semi-automatic weapon is a real problem, and you would want to take a semi-automatic weapon away from a crazy person.
01:34:42.000But the problem is, if there's a guy like you, who has a semi-automatic weapon, and you have a ranch somewhere, and you're just shooting coyotes and fucking metal targets that are out in the distance, and you don't harm anybody, and you're a good person...
01:34:56.000You are technically protected by the Second Amendment.
01:39:04.000Charlemagne actually put that, that it was all these white guys, that white guys are the biggest threat in terms of terrorism in America, and Instagram took his post down.
01:39:40.000The last time there was a black guy that committed a mass murder was those fucking guys in D.C. They were shooting people out of their car.
01:39:47.000Are you talking about the D.C. sniper?
01:40:39.000This was like a normal dude, grew up in England.
01:40:42.000He was a refugee, right, from I think Syria or something like that, somewhere over in the Middle East.
01:40:46.000Comes to England, played soccer, football as they call it, grew up normal, had friends, was just a normal dude, and then just went freaking...
