I am. We're up.
It's buffering. That's it, we're live.
We're live. Put your fucking cans on my brother.
Put the cans on. We're all professionals.
We're all professionals. Is everybody drinking? Yes, we have Buffalo Trace here.
We have whatever you want. We have vodka.
We have all kinds of shit. What do you like? What do you like? Vodka club? With a splash of cray? No, it's not fucking.
I can't hear it. You don't got to worry about that.
You can't hear it? You don't hear it now? You don't hear anything? Jamie will check it out. It might be a wire.
I thought he was running for the drinks, too. Is he playing bartender, too, Jamie? I'll bring over us bottles.
We got some stuff you can mix it with, I think, but I don't know. Do you need mixes? No, I don't need a mix or nothing.
I was just going to do a vodka with a club. I don't need no cranberry.
Do we have club soda? Yeah, I don't know if we have club soda. Am I being a fancy pants? A little bit.
What are you guys drinking? A little hair or a dog? I'm the only one that doesn't drink. Whiskey with an ice ball.
You're not drinking at all? I mean, I'll drink a little. I'm not a big drinker, but one in Austin.
Give me some of that. Give me some of that.
Oh, shit. Come on.
Let's go. Brendan Chubb, stay on that wagon, sir.
Have to. Guys.
Otherwise, I turn into a gremlin. Salute.
Fight companion.
There's no middle ground for Brandon.
It's either all or nothing.
And by the way, I smell and knew with Tatiana Suarez.
Oh, yeah, all day.
I was just watching some of the fights,
and I saw her just take down Jessica Andrade and smoke her.
She's like nobody's business. And she's not easy to get down.
She's a fucking... She was Gatorade High School Wrestler of the Year when she came out.
And then she won the Ultimate Fighter. She was a savage and she got hurt.
Wasn't she a national... Yeah, she had a couple of injuries that derailed her career for a little bit.
She was on the Olympic team but then got cancer. She defeated cancer.
Cancer? What kind of cancer? She beat cancer. She's a savage though.
So good at wrestling. We labeled her the Khabib of the women's division.
Oh, here we go. We got something to mix it up with.
Oh, LaCroix. Here we go.
There you go. Oh! All right.
I didn't have a sip of this. That's okay.
Ow! I'm easy. Thank you, man.
I appreciate it. Yeah, that's a good fight.
Shawn Ray Lee is such a monster, man. She's so hard to bet against.
That lady is such an animal. When's the last time she fought a real wrestler? She has not.
She's never fought anybody like her. Not even close.
Neither of them have fought anybody of the caliber that they are. That's why it's a great fight.
They're also both older. I think Tatiana's 31, and then a homegirl, Weigh-Ling, is what, 34? Isn't that crazy to say? Because Alex Pereira's 37 Different.
Yeah isn't it? That's weird though right? You're like older 31 you start going isn't that interesting? Lighter weight class too. Lighter weight class female like older they turn into fucking gremlins.
How about fucking Pantoja? Pantoja's a fucking He might be the best guy pound for pound alive He might be right up there with Tapuria and Islam and John Jones and everybody else who's in the conversation. But he's small, so no one cares.
Yeah, but goddamn, man. He was so good against that Japanese cat.
I was like, my God. And that Japanese cat didn't have that first-time jitters.
No. He came out there like a fucking hellcat.
Hellish striker. One? Ryzen.
Ryzen. Dangerous striker.
Dangerous striker. So good.
But think about it. They have to sign a homeboy from Ryzen to compete with him.
There's not much for him. Pantoja's an animal, and he keeps getting better.
He looked better in that fight than ever before. His timing and everything was pristine.
How old is he? 34, maybe? How old is Pantoja? That's rare. Dude, remember when he won the belt? He was like, do you see me now, Dad? Yo, whoa! 100 Pantoja.
Whatever it takes. He's one of my absolute favorite guys to watch fight.
Monster, yeah. Just an animal.
Just a dog. Just a full...
Beautiful jiu-jitsu. Beautiful.
His striking was super impressive against that Japanese cat because I was like, man, the timing is so good. There was no place where that guy was safe.
You know? He was driving. I think he was doing Uber Eats.
Yeah. When he was fighting.
Crazy. He's a sweet guy.
Really sweet guy. Crazy.
But the narrative on that, too, like the media is like, you know, he's a UFC fighter and he's driving for Uber Eats. It's like he also fought once in three years.
Like, that's on you's on you dog yeah that's on you it's there's a lot of things going on but it's also weird that 125 it's real hard to sell 135 no problem because 135 you got Sugar Sean you got Marab you got some stars with personality but but 125 every dude sitting on the couch is like they're tiny I can beat them up and they have no fucking clue not think that about the 135 How is it 10 pounds like okay, and that weird? Yeah Human nature's maybe because you've got some very fucking exciting Personalities at 35 what about mighty mouse rob? Yeah mighty mouse was amazing when he was a champion amazing He was doing wizardry for the best ever doing wizardry, he wasn't controversial. No.
He was... Mighty Mouse is like the nicest guy ever.
Bro, that Ray Borg fight? Dude, I was about to... Where he suplexed him and caught him in the arm all the way down.
Yeah, man. I never seen anything like that.
He told you he was 34. Yeah, he's 34.
Fucking animal. 34 at 125.
Amazing. 56.
There's talk about him going to 35. Him versus Marab would be fucking bananas.
Yeah, but... Bananas!
I'm never betting against Marab again.
Ever.
How great was that Umar fight?
Amazing.
I thought for sure Umar was going to beat him.
Did you really?
You're a piece of shit.
Why would you think that?
I'll tell you right now.
Anyone from Dagestan or that area, Brian will suck off.
He's so good at striking his wrestling.
It drives me nuts.
It drives me nuts. They're both from the Caucus Mountains.
They are. Yeah, but one guy trains in Jersey.
And also, Marab... He's living in Vegas now.
He's Vegas. Marab has the...
I get him so riled up. Anybody from Dugas, that guy's going to crush him.
Bro, Marab is a machine. He, the biggest weapon in all of combat sports and all of sports period, his cardio is the most lethal thing on the planet.
His cardio and his wrestling. And he took a gold medalist, you know.
And he's striking. Yeah.
I mean, throwing hammers. You got to see, though, like, you look on paper, and people were making a, they were saying, oh, man, well, he's got the wrestling to counter him, and he's got the better hands.
Marab, his whole fucking fucking career fought guys with a good wrestling base and fucking good striking. He's used to that.
Who were you going to get to simulate Merab? He never fought anybody like Merab. We weren't surprised at all.
Really? What about against Cejudo? A gold medalist who's seen it all? Yeah, that was amazing.
But the thing about Umar is Umar's striking is really elite.
It's elite and deceptive.
He does a bunch of stuff that no one does. One of the things he does is his crazy front kick to the face.
And he throws a right leg roundhouse kick and a left leg roundhouse kick to the face.
Both of them with equal dexterity.
Both off the lead leg.
He whips that lead leg over your shoulder and smacks guys in the face. And his timing.
It works for him. He couldn't keep the pace.
No one can. Nobody can.
No one ever will. He's a master of range, Merab.
They think that, oh, he doesn't have the reach. He's a master of closing that distance.
He throws that overhand into the single leg, to the double leg. You don't know whether he's shooting or striking the whole time.
And what I love about it is, after that first round, oh man, Merab dropped that round. Second round, he's not getting stressed.
You see him get his back taken. He's smiling.
Dude, he's there all night. And he could afford another 25 minutes.
I believe it. I've never seen anything like it.
I've seen a lot. I don't think we will either.
Was he always like that? He was always like that with the cardio, but he didn't have the tools to get out of certain positions. Did you see what DC said? No.
On his Instagram? DC went to visit him the day after the fight, and he's running. He loves it.
So he beats Sugar Sean, wins the world tighter. DC goes to visit him at his house.
He's not home. He's I'd be running he's wandering around his house He doesn't even know he's there like he just lets him he just walks into his fucking house And he's like filming Marab's gym like whose gym you think this is like this guy's picture It's the best weapon in UFC.
He loves it man. He loves he's nothing to do He's incredible his but that's all that's two things right? That's genetic gift.
And on top of that, insane hard work. It's like both things.
Because the guy's a tank. There's a lot of great genes.
It reminds me of, remember Kane had that weird cardio? Oh, yeah. And you're like, what the fuck? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Put his head in your chest and just go. They said he took two months off in his heyday.
He took two months off, came in the gym, and DC was like, we're going to beat this shit out of the kid. He hasn't been in two months.

His cardio was fine. Luke Rockhold told me that Kane was the guy who would turn your fucking head around.
He would just get in there. And he said at one point, what he was doing to Luke, to Daniel, to all those guys was a different thing.
It was a nightmare. Yeah, what changed with Kane was he blew his knee out when he was getting ready for the...
Fardou? No, no, no, no. He lost to...
He lost to... JDS.
JDS. Junior Dos Santos.
Sorry, Junior. Yeah.
I just had a brain fart. Junior Dos Santos knocked him out on Fox, and his knee was fucked up going into that fight, and that was the big fight for Fox was like one of our first big events huge of a huge event
And he really should have been fighting. He should have he should have got out of the fight
His knee was fucked up. So junior knocks him out and then he beats the
Junior in the rematch and he beats a shit out of junior in the rematch after that the third fight
He beats him like in a way that takes years off your life. Yeah changes DNA forever.
He's at that pace
He just you see these guys just rock lesnar. They can't breathe.
They're just wilting from that pace. Especially at heavyweight.
I love that. The Brock Lesnar fight.
A lot of it had to do with his... He was very good at boxing.
He picked up on boxing so quickly. And it was all smooth technique.
There wasn't no big wind-ups where his chin was exposed. It was all very smooth.
The Noguera KO, oh my goodness.
Fast.
That fucking bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
It was like lightning just smooth.
I think Kane in his prime is the best heavyweight ever.
It's hard to say because of Fedor.
Because if you could get juicy Fedor from Pride...
I think Kane beats the fuck out of it.
I don't know, man.
I don't know if anybody beats Fedor in his prime.
They are so accurate with his strikes.
So good, dude.
Fedor walked down Krokop when Krokop was in his prime prime. You got to remember that most of that fight was standing up.
And Fedor was going blow to blow with Cro Cop and walking him down. He was very unusual.
That Randleman KO or the Randleman armbar, Randleman fucking suplexes him on his head. And five seconds later, he's got him into Kimura.
It's crazy. He was different.
When he beat up Noguera, dude, oh my God. Watch that fight again.
I'd like to see some testing around those times. Oh, yeah.
We'll pretend. Even on the UFC back then.
It'd be tough. Tim motherfucking Sylvia, when he was Rico Rodriguez, when he beat the shit out of Rico Rodriguez and looked like a bodybuilder.
So scary. Kane has Brian Callen's chest.
That dude's not on his knee. He's built like a CPA.
No, Kane had them jeans. He's built like a very thick CPA.
He had them jeans. He had them fucking Mayan warrior jeans.
Doesn't have an incline machine like Brian Callen. Yeah, he had some Aztec warrior jeans.
Whatever Kane had is superior genetics. His cardio was nuts.
Giant ass. He had a way DC talks about him and their sparring and stuff.
I don't think he's just throwing the praise out there. No, DC would clearly say the only reason why I'm heavyweight champion is because Kane's not fighting.
I'll never forget when Kane was fighting. I was on the same card.
I fought Gonzaga. That was the fight he fought Lesnar.
When we were doing the fucking pre-shoot stuff, he took his shirt off and I'm like waiting to go. And he has that brown pride.
I looked at the guy doing the video stuff. I go, hey, if I put white pride, is that cool? And he goes, dude, just shut the fuck up.
That wouldn't go over too big. Yeah, you're allowed to have brown pride.
How's it different? You're allowed to have brown pride. How's it different? Well, because the Mexicans didn't really subjugate the white people in recent memory.
It's a little different. It's a little different.
Let me pull out my history book. Let me pull out some history.
It's a big difference. We sold our whole country.
What's with this world? Did you guys see Cat Williams in Phoenix? No. Did you see that? Oh, my God.
Not only did he lit up that dude, he had the whole crowd chant in America. Yeah, dude.
He's like, motherfucker, this ain't Mexico. This is Phoenix.
It was incredible. He had a heckler? He had a heckler? Oh, he had a heckler in Phoenix.
Something about Mexicans and cats. Bro, the lights are on fire.
I saw Cat Williams at the comedy store one time. He was so fucking good.
I've been doing this for 30 years. And he was playing with a band and stuff like that.
He's one of the greats.
Did you see him on Theo's podcast?
He kind of does a character.
He's doing his thing, but Theo's
so fucking funny. He breaks like
three times. He just can't.
Theo's talking about black ducks.
He goes, you need to get some black ducks.
Theo's out of his mind.
He's the best. He broke cat like
four times. Really? How about when he was talking to the president?
He was saying man that cocaine attorney into a damn owl
But that is like really probably what Trump needed he needed those kind of interviews
Which comedians was he shitting on when he said your friends aren't funny? I don know not to make it awkward listen He said that he said that because he thought for some crazy reason that I didn't want to have him on like somehow Another that he would be showing up people or something because he's so good Maybe he thought that because he's isolated. That's not even he don't know me that well The first time I met him was in the studio.
I love Cat Williams.
I've always been a fan.
I've always talked about Pimp Chronicles.
It's fucking fantastic.
It's so good.
He's so wild.
And I've actually taken advice from him.
There's two pieces of advice that I took from an interview that he did once that I used this day.
One, he said, I never eat before a show.
He said, don't eat.
He goes, I want to be hungry.
Better off being hungry.
My brain works better.
And then two, he said, I have a music playlist that I make that just gets me in the mood
to do a show. And so I'm like, that's a good idea.
And from then on, I started carrying around like a Bluetooth machine, like a Bluetooth boombox, and bringing, and then the green room playlist that we have on Spotify, that's all the songs. But it's no different about athletes, dude.
It's smart. You guys should do it.
That's what athletes do. It was a smart thing.
I was thinking, I was like, why don't I do that? Like, that makes sense. Like, you want to turn it into a little bit of a party.
Yes. You get that music going.
It feels good. Like we do with the green room at the mothership.
Yeah. Get that music going.
Everybody's having fun. I want to give you a compliment.
Longo, who doesn't give compliments? I don't know where the fuck he saw you, but he said, I was fucking dying the whole time, the good you killed him yeah yeah he fucked up for you i'm gonna hate this guy there's a stress factory jake matthews i'm very high on this kid i like him very very high on this kid oh yeah main card i think jimmy croot's fight got canceled is that correct yes jake matthews is always exciting always he's super good he's like one of those guys that look like he could break through any moment now. But he's a little reckless, so he'll win like three and then lose one.
Well, he's fighting really good guys, man. It's the UFC.
I smell him by submission. That's what I smell.
What do you smell? I don't know. Listen, this guy, Prada, he's real good.
Yeah. He's got good striking.
Yeah. Jake Matthews, very well-rounded.
Yeah, very well-rounded, but sharp striking. Jake's striking is just crisp.
I think to be intelligent in this fight, I think he should get his ass down. Is she about to sing the national anthem? Heidi Andrell on the spotlight.
She's been with the UFC for a long time. Is Jimmy Crute there? I don't even think I met her.
There's Jimmy Crute. He's getting ready.
Oh, he's back. Wait, what is happening? Wait a minute.
Is that a kid who fought O'Malley? So is the fight not canceled? I was looking to see if it was. That was 11 minutes ago.
That was 11 minutes ago. That was 135.
February 6th, a couple days ago. No, but up top it says the Brute's back.
That's 11 minutes ago. Oh, okay.
So he's not off the card. Just Google Jimmy Crute off UFC card.
I read that three different fights were off the card. I don't know, man.
And Crute was one of them. I like that fucking mullet.
Oh, okay. He's in there.
I like that. That's a healthy mullet.
I like that dude. That mullet.
He's very good. Very good ground game.
He's got a fucking Kimura. What weight's he fighting at? Isn't Crude a middleweight?
He looks...
What is Jimmy Crude?
He's 185, I believe.
I think he's a
middleweight.
Light heavyweight.
Oh, he's fighting
light heavyweight
in this fight.
Did he used to
fight at 185?
I think he did.
I do believe he did.
Is this a last-minute
replacement fight,
Jamie?
This Jimmy Crude
Bellotto, or is that the original? No, that's the guy he had, right? It's interesting that he decided to do that, and he's an underdog. And I'm not familiar with Bellato.
Here's the thing. People hate on the card because they're not big names, but if you notice the way the card's structured, which is why I don't hate on it, is they're all going to be, for the most part, finishes.
They're supposed to be on paper. You never know, but but they're super exciting fights Prado and Jake Matthews is a very good fight to kick it off with I'm real excited about this.
They're both very good fun card. Yeah, it's just not one of them cards It like jumps out Well, you know where's Carter here's the thing we're fucking so spoiled because in most sports like in most combat, it's all about the main event.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And they either go away or you don't give a fuck. Most people are barely watching the prelims in boxing.
Also, UFC has to fill a lot of cards, you know, so you can't have them stacked like
it's fucking 1998.
All I know is I get upset on a Saturday when there's no UFC.
I do too.
It's part of my Saturday.
I don't know what to do.
You don't know what to do.
I fucking, it just makes my day complete.
There is nothing better for me. There's nothing better.
There's nothing better for me than just chilling at home, watching the fights. I feel so relaxed.
I don't have to work and I can watch them. Best thing on earth.
Yeah, you watch the screen. You don't watch the actual fight.
Oh, I watch the fight when I can. Yeah.
But the problem is there's some positions where, especially when they're on the ground, like I don't know if someone's trapped. I don't know how they have his...
And you can see it better. Yeah, all I see is a back and a dude,
and I'm confused as to what's going on.
I need to see the monitor sometimes.
There's pillars in the way.
I need to see the monitor with replays all the time
because we don't know if a guy got hit or if it's a headbutt.
Sometimes I remember Matt Serra when he fought Matt Hughes.
I thought Matt Serra dropped him.
And I did fucking drop him.
Let's talk about that.
Let's do it.
Can we talk about that?
Every time I hear him say it, it's like, oht my head hit him my head connected he was still standing look at that head that head can take out a building that head hit tower 7 my head my head I said that head hit tower 7 this thing could go through a fucking wall and then chug it out. When my head touched his chin, my hand went BOP! It was certainly both.
Your head hit him first. I feel it did not drop.
Matt, you always had crazy power. That Frank Trigg knockout.
I He went through a lot. He did go through a lot.
He's coming back. He looks really good.
Who's coming back? Matt Serra. Is he in the GFL? I don't mean fighting.
Is he in the GFL? No, no, no. The GFL just hit him? I mean coming back from his injury.
Come on, man. Jesus Christ.
GFL. We can talk about that if you want.
Yeah. Go ahead.
Oh, what the fuck? Okay. I said he looks a lot better since his rehabilitation.
He's doing a lot of stem cells on Matt Sarah. Oh, excuse excuse me.
Matt Hughes. Thank you.
Sorry
Matt Matt Hughes got hit by a fucking train. Yeah, you know, and so
No, no, no, no his car fucking stalled out or something. I don't know what happened
But it's depressing. I don't know what happened.
Either way, it sucks. What are you talking? Where the fuck are you introducing me to the conversation? Jesus Christ! Man, can't ask questions! Jesus Christ! It's a train track like it's Looney Tunes.
I don't know. Maybe he has some information on NASA.
He's on a cyber truck? Yeah, they knew something. But anyway, the point is, he looks great.
It's been a long road for that guy to recover from that. He seems a lot better now.
He walks a lot better. He's talking a lot smoother.
I've seen him in Manchester. We did a signing over there like a year ago.
How was he then? He's alright. No, he's good.
He's not 100%. He's not.
If someone goes, how's Brian Callen? I think that he's living. Yeah, he's loving it.
It's not, you know. He's like, yeah.
If someone goes, how's Brian Cowan? Nah. I listen.
I think that he's living.
I mean, I don't think he's as sharp as he used to be.
Major brain injury.
He had some brain injuries, you know?
Yeah.
I mean, especially the car accident with the train.
That effect.
The train?
The big one.
After a long career of, like, you know, a lot of rock and soccer robots fights.
I worked with him on Kingdom.
Spent a week with him.
I love Matt Hughes. And he was great.
And we talked a lot about, like, he was like, I just want to be able to wake up, put my shoes on. You know, he didn't feel like there was anything, but he was worried about it.
This was before the accident. Yeah, I said, do you ever, do you ever have memory things? That was in 2005? No, that was 2015.
16, 17. 10 years ago.
Yeah, but what I'm saying is that he was, fine, but it was always a worry for him. You know who seems to be doing good is Frank Trigg.
You see him as a ref out there? Yeah. That's who you want.
Looking nice and fat. Trigg's big.
Trigg's big. Trigg's big.
Trigg's big. He's thick.
He's thick. He's muscular.
No, no, no. He seems happy.
Man. I ran into him a few times.
But that's who you want as a ref or as a judge? 100%. Make him a fucking judge.
100%. Like these judges tonight, no disrespect.
What the fuck? You think they're going to be able to judge Strickland's defensive striking? Why don't they have fighters? I don't understand. Well, who knows who they have? Maybe they have good ones.
Can I just tell you that? Chris Lieben's been judging. Yeah, Chris Lieben's been judging.
Chris Lieben's great. He judged the last one.
Yeah. When I'm having a bad day, I put in my knockout of Frank Trey.
Listen, you know why I think shots at this motherfucker? Let me tell you right now. I'm cool with everybody I ever fought.
Now, you know I used to fluctuate. Yeah.
You mean weight-wise? Weight-wise. Yeah, you'd get thick.
What would I fluctuate in other words? a good thing. I got fat.
I remember when you were a brown belt. I've known Matt since 1996.
Yes. The only man I ever kissed.
That's right. You kissed me around the lips.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. But I was, you know, we'll have to explain it.
I think you went to kiss me on the cheek, and I moved my head, and then we... Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Plus, you smelled good. It was one of those things.
It was eye contact. For the folks at home, let me say this, so to key up.
So what we do is when the first scorecard, the first time card, rather, the countdown clock goes on, I'll give you the numbers so you can sync up. 458, 454, 453, 452, 451, 450, 449.
Good enough. All right, figure it out.
All right, so first round, Matthews and Prado. I get that line over there, Joe.
Yes, sir. Thanks, sir.
How's my favorite person, Hensel Gracie? Man, you tell me, man. I talk to him through Instagram sometimes.
He's all over the world, man. I got to get Hensel in here, man.
He is the best. We almost did it one time.
He was in Austin, but the timing was bad. He's so smart.
He was just recently in Austin. Henson's so smart.
Well, he's got gyms all over the world, right? Oh, yeah, man. He's brilliant.
He's just a brilliant human being. One of a kind.
Yeah. The best.
He's just a great human being. Wasn't Ricardo Almeida doing judging, too? He was doing judging.
Yes. He was judging.
He was the first one I heard of doing it. This is the guy you're high on right here, Matthews? I like Jake Matthews.
Very good. I don't know.
Let's see if he looks to take it to the floor. He looks sharp on his feet.
He's got a big advantage on the floor. He's sharp on his feet.
His defense has been looking good. His defense has been looking very good.
Just gets low and sits down. He's super technical.
And like I said, he's one of those guys that seems to me that he's going to break out into the top five. He's one of those guys that's got the talent and he's real young.
How old is Jake Matthews, young Jamie? He's been around a hot second. Maybe 29, if I'm guessing.
I'd say 31. But he's just like one of those guys that's always been like at the cusp.
It's an interesting lower back tattoo, I'll tell you that much. Do you like it? Yeah.
What does it make you think of? I don't know.
It's an interesting idea.
I'm going to cover
just that part of my back.
What are you thinking?
The tramp stamp?
I mean, it's not so much like that.
It's more of a Yakuza.
Trink used to have a tramp stamp.
Maybe it's going to do
the whole back.
Yeah.
It looks like the beginning
of a whole back tattoo.
When he was goofing on me.
Yeah, it's probably the beginning.
But that's like a tribal thing, right?
That's like a New Zealand tattoo.
Yeah, maybe.
Or it looks like a Japanese something. Oh, good a New Zealand tattoo.
Yeah, maybe or it looks Japanese
Oh good uppercuts inside good knees to oh Damn Matthews is fucking dangerous. I doesn't that dude look like drew Dober Prado a little bit a lot That's like drew Dober's bitter younger brother who's not as good-looking I bring my girlfriends over there staring at Drew.
He does look like him. That's like Drew Dober's bitter younger brother Who's not as good looking God damn it Fucking Drew
I bring my girlfriends over
They're staring at Drew
Stop
He does look like a man
As he chews gum
I'd always be chewing gum
Always on his tippy toes
When he's fighting
Who's got fucking better
Like constant staying on the ball
Of their feet than Drew Dober
He's just jacked on
He's always like light on his feet
Always super light on his feet
He has a chin like Mr. Incredible
It's ridiculous
Beast striker too
Beast striker
Fun fighter
I'm telling you. He's got good everything, man.
Matthews is super well-rounded. Somebody's going to get knocked out.
I feel he should get him down. But Prado's good, too, man.
This is a good fight. Yeah.
fight yeah somebody's gonna connect this guy's got that anger Drew Dober being handsomer than him too that shit carries you a long way it does because it's just a little bit it's like god damn it my nose was just a little different he's like a poor man's Drew Dober yeah like tans you know how like Kanye there you know how like kanye dated that new lady he's married there yeah looks a lot like she's hot but it's not kim right she's like i think she's hotter i think she's way hotter than kim is she in person i have i've worked yeah but we see pictures bro come on what's the difference no kim's beautiful but i mean come on no you know it's like it's like drew dober's a royals royce phantom and he's a chsler 300. I think that girl was born looking like that, though.
You know what I'm saying? I agree. I agree.
Facts. Like, I don't think...
Like, I was mad when she showed up to the Grammys naked. I was like, this is ridiculous.
I'm like, you gay? Wait, does she have a fake ass or no? She's a real ass. I think it's all real.
I think hers is... I don't think her tits are real.
I think her tits might be real. They're all real.
Shut your mouth. Facts.
If you can touch them, they're real. Shut your dirty whore mouth.
Shut your dirty whore. Oh, that's not surprising.
Oh, shit. Nice.
Does that count as a takedown? No. Hey, dude, that's condescending.
It's a home run. Hey, that's fucking condescending.
You, that's a field goal, Brian. That is so rude.
You were joking, yeah? No, it's a field goal, Brian. I like to get people, you know, I like to ask the questions that novices are asking.
Oh, right, right, right. I do that sometimes in podcasts.
You got to create some energy in the podcast. I ask questions that I know answers to.
Yeah, come on, man. Get him down now.
Put him down. Oh, my goodness.
Oh, my goodness. Dude, Prado.
Oh, my goodness. Come on, Prado.
I've been a Prado fan for a long time. Oh! Somebody's getting caught.
Somebody's getting caught. Somebody's getting caught.
Great defense. Jake is clean, man.
He's clean. I like the way this dude strikes.
These guys have been doing some boxing. Super technical, man, but hyper-aggressive, too.
Look at that. Oh! He blocked it, though.
He blocked it. He hit him with the Yair.
Yeah. The jumping roundhouse kick.
Oh, he's bleeding now. Damn.
Uh-oh. Prado's busted up on his right eyebrow.
Yeah. Joe, you know one of my favorite moments when you guys fuck it up when you had Zuckerberg on and he goes, I hunt.
Oh, no. I went like this.
Yes. What does he hunt? He just, I went, yes.
He he goes and then my favorite goes I bow hunt
I went
thank you god
I love the news
I saw Joe go
do you
what kind of bow do you use
I think he did
he just forgot his bow
oh you forgot the name of his bow
listen there's levels to this shit
I would never forget
my bow
but I'm a fanatic
like I shoot archery every day
yeah because you shoot
bows and arrows
I love it. No, no, no.
He definitely has. That's like saying I play laser tag.
He definitely bow hunts pigs. He lives on an island.
He has an island in Kauai that's infested with wild pigs. No, he does hunt them.
I've seen videos of him doing it. It's just someone gives him a bow.
He doesn't look at it. He doesn't care.
Somebody teaches him how to shoot. He doesn't know what release he has.
If I said, what do you have? You have a stand? You have a wise guy? What do you have? He's too rich for that. Do you use a hinge? Do you have a knock to it? By the fair part, you can tell.
If you're going to talk bows with Joe or pool or even cars, you better come correct. Yeah, but this can't be i this episode is brought to you by amazon mgm studios new movie the accountant 2 in theaters april 25th ben affleck and john bernthal are back in the accountant 2 when an old acquaintance gets murdered he leaves behind a cryptic message that leads straight to Christian Wolfe,

Bo hunt and I thought oh but this is Zuckerberg 2.0 and I love it. He's doing testosterone.
He's doing jiu-jitsu. I don't know if he's doing tests.
I hope he's doing tests. I think he is.
But he certainly looks a lot thicker. He looks great.
When he came in, I was laughing at him. I'm like, your neck looks bigger.
Look at your neck. Yes.
He turned into a conservative. Yes.
Well, it's convenient. Well, also, hard work makes you think that way.
Fuck, yeah. Hard work makes you like appreciate some masculine aspects of life
I'll tell you right now if he if he fought Elon Musk and Elon Musk is sleeping on the jiu-jitsu
I know
Because sometimes when you hear Elon Musk talking about the fighting you like shit stick to the fucking rockets
I don't want to see either when you're that rich
This fight is heating up kids. These guys are going.
Elon has some wide hips, though. He's a big fella.
Oh, Jesus. His hips like Trump.
He looks like warm cheese. You see him with his shirt off? God bless.
I love him. He's a lot thinner now.
He got on that Ozempic, son. Oh, okay.
Dude, everybody's. What is with that shit? He's got a cheat code or what? His skin is so white.
It's cheat code. I've seen darker clouds.
But what? Well, it's a little bit of a cheat code because what it does is it makes you not hungry. And so people don't eat as much and you go in a calorie deficit.
But you could do that on your own. They use it for addiction.
It's called discipline. It's a cheat code.
It's hard for people, but the best way to do it if you want to do it on your own, just only eat meat. I swear to God, you'll lose a shit ton of weight.
And feel good. And also a little colitis.
It does wonders for my rest. Did you have that? Yeah, I got it.
That's why I was in a dinner tonight. They're using Ozempic for addiction.
My stomach's over. Yeah, Ozempic's got a bunch of other uses too.
And it's also like for diabetes. Doesn't it stop addiction overall though? I heard people have like...
Yeah, because it blocks the craving pathway. Yeah, but what is it...
It ruins your bones. There's got to be...
Is there any tests on it like in the long run? Well, the problem is anytime you go into calorie deficit, your body starts eating itself. So what people are losing is not just fat.
They're losing muscle and bone density. So Peter Attia, who's a good friend of mine, did some studies on his patients that did it.
And he found that even when they lost weight, they got fatter. So they actually gained more fat and they lost muscle and bone mass.
You know what that. You want to be weaker.
But this is what I think. I think, were those people lifting weights while they were on that stuff? Here's the thing.
I feel like you got to do something to mitigate the fact that you're... And also, you got to be rational.
You can't just try to starve yourself into thinness because you're going to fuck your organs up. It's not good.
What you really should do is make sure you consume enough calories to support any kind of physical exercise you're doing and then make sure you do physical exercise while you're also taking that stuff and maybe then you can keep some muscle and bone mass. That takes discipline.
They want to just take the shot and get skinny and lean. People do get skinny though.
It works. And it sucks being a fat guy.
Right.
How fat were you, Matt? How about this?
Right now, I'm buck 85.
Okay. What?
Oh, okay.
Let me see it.
He has to see that.
He needs to see it.
When I was a fatty,
I was up to 230, and I'm 5'6". God damn.
If you got fat, you'd be like, oh, Brendan's a little husky. I've been fat.
When you're my height, I'm pointing to Joe, too. 230.
He's taller than me, though. 230 is a lot.
Dude, I was heavy. That must have hurt your joints.
Did that hurt your joints? Not so much my joints. It's just I felt like a fucking fat guy.
What were you eating? Your lower back didn't fuck with you or nothing? Well, my lower back went out at one point, and I'm sure that didn't help it.
And then I got on TRT, but I was still heavy because I'd be eating like a fucking pig.
But this goes back to the trig thing because I didn't want to sound like a bully.
The only reason I fucked with that guy still is because after I knocked him out years later,
then I got fat.
He called me up one time looking for Al Iaquinta's number.
So I go, oh, sure.
I gave it to him.
He had Al on the show. When Al was getting off, he goes, hey, tell the beer keg I said hello.
So I don't forget shit like that. I don't forget it.
So now that he's a fat guy and I'm in shape, you'd like to take a shout out. It's fair.
Oh, Jake Matthews just landed a good right hand. I hope he goes for a fucking takedown, man.
You really like his jiu-jitsu that much, Matt? I know he has it. So, like, why this guy? Why not use it? I think he's doing really well on the feet.
That's why. He wants to get a KO.
But Al Iaquinta, people forget, was that Khabib couldn't take him down. Al will survive with Khabib, but still, a short notice for Al.
I know it's a different fight for Khabib, but he struggled in that fight. Al had his moments.
Al did a good job defending take-down. He was also set to fight Paul Felder.
So he was about to fight a totally different fight. Totally different fight.
24 hours notice. He had the best fight with Khabib that anybody ever had.
He did. It's amazing.
Yeah, he did. He didn't get dominated.
He lost the fight, but he didn't get dominated a lot like Conor did or a lot of other guys did.
He got smashed. Conor had some success
too in that, though. He did.
If you watch it again, you see him as ass whooped.
He did better against Khabib almost than anybody
else for a while. Conor? Yeah.
And his camp was atrocious that time.
Was it? Bad camp.
Why? His trainer talks about it.
It was like a dark camp. He wasn't training with the team.
He was like in his head. He was like it was a dark camp.
It was horrible. This is post-Floyd.
Yes. Yeah, that's a problem too, right? You get ready for a boxing match with one of the all-time greats.
You've got to take six months where you're not doing any takedowns, no leg kicks, no nothing. All you're doing is boxing.
Bad idea. You're not going to take any extra energy and train your fucking jiu-jitsu when you're training for a Floyd Mayweather boxing fight got khabib the greatest grappler we've seen out there yeah it's a terrible idea when he's on top of him going let's talk now now the other side is you made a ton of money did you hear it you were right well you you were there for that fight yeah who yeah who is it that said someone said recently that i think if the conor mcgregor who beat eddie alvarez face khabib would have been a completely different fight.
I probably said that. I don't remember who it was, but I listened to that, and I said, you know what, I think that's true.
How do you solve that? I think he was a different guy. But I think he was a different guy.
He was a fucking animal. His space management.
I think it was Khabib that said that. Yeah, but your wrestling doesn't care about that.
Once he closed distance, it'd be a problem for Conor. Oh, it's always going to be a problem, but Conor was so fucking good on his feet back then.
So good. So elusive, too.
I like the clips of him getting interviewed back in the day saying, partying is weakness for your soul. I know.
And then there's clips now of him being like, nah, he's fucking all pumped up. Oh, the ship has sailed.
It's like, we want him to come back and it didn't happen. Well he knows too.
Of course he knows. Oh my god.
Jake Matthews is walking this shit down. He's swinging.
If you're the first to find the main card you're there to finish. Well also he's trying to make a name for himself and he's in Australia.
Home country. The whole deal.
That's where he's from, right? Yes. Isn't he from? I think he is.
He's Australian.
Yeah, you have to have your hometown boys when you have a fight on a card in the motherland.
That's why poor Strickland, going back there.
Yeah, but Trickus is from South Africa.
It's kind of neutral ground.
St. Mary's.
St. Mary's.
St. Mary's.
Oh, yeah.
It's just different continent, but you know what I mean?
Totally close. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Closer than fucking Vegas where Strickland is. Yeah, not much.
I just re-watched that one earlier. That's got to be a bitch, though, Matt.
Do you ever fight and have to get ready for it? Hold on, B, how'd you score it? It was so close. Because I gave it to Strickland.
What's that? You gave it to Strickland? Yeah. I mean, how much do you give for the takedowns? He didn't do nothing.
I don't think he got struck at all in the field. How do you score those? I thought Strickland won.
I thought he won three to two. Same.
It was very, I mean, it's all how you, I'll tell you though, Drake, he mixes in those takedowns and I think that could sway some judges. They see big moments instead of the whole round.
He's a big dude, too. He also pushes forward.
You remember, Strickland's the one who pushes forward always. But Octagon control when you go through the judging is last.
No, I understand, but the thing about Drickland is he's going to be moving forward always, and I think Sean is used to moving forward himself, so he's going to be fighting on his back foot. But then also, Strickland's not getting points because his defense is so good.
He's blocking a lot of shots, but it looks like they're landing, but he's actually blocking. He rolls good with that Philly shell, but how much did that cut? How much did that affect him? If that happened early on, he said he was a one-eyed guy early on.
Plus the judges see that. That's damaged.
That's the number one judging criteria. What caused that cut? A headbutt, they said, right? Was it a headbutt or a punch? Yes.
I thought it was a headbutt. It was a great fight, though.
Still a very good fight. People that say it's boring, I'm like, man.
I thought it was great. It was high level.
Very high level. I'd imagine DuPlessis is hard to get ready because you can't find anybody who spars like that.
Can't mimic him. Right? It's like he almost fights like a drunk guy in a bar.
Well, like Pro Oscar.
Good luck getting ready for that.
Fuck.
That was awesome.
His last fight was Jago.
Oh, my God.
He trusts his spider sense.
He goes right in front.
He's like.
Crazy.
It's crazy, man.
And his head movement has gotten so much better.
And those counters, those pull counters.
He hit him with a couple of pull left hands and then a right hook counter after that.
Oh, my goodness.
It was blop, blop.
It was like duck the punch, blop, blop.
What do you do with Yeri, though?
Well, it's like one more and then maybe tries Alex again.
I got one for you.
What about Robert Whitaker at 205?
Yeri.
Robert Whitaker, Yeri.
Is that what Robert wants to do? He wants to go to 205?
Really? That's crazy
for a guy who started at 170. At 170?
It's tough. You've said it's tough for
him to make 85. Well, he's bigger
now. Robert Whittaker's
fucking thick. Imagine.
I mean, we've seen it before. What about Rumble?
Rumble starts at 170,
moves up to heavyweight. I was doing
Warrior with him. He was 230 on set.
230 and not fat. He sucked down at 170.
Bro, he was so big. I ran into him in a hotel once.
I'm like, how the fuck are you ever 170? His head is as big. He was so big.
His shoulders were as wide as a barn. And he sucked down at 170.
And he didn't have an ounce of fat on him. That's what was crazy.
He was 235. He's walking around at 235.
He can't be healthy. No.
That should be illegal. But when he would get in there, oh my God, he would hit guys.
They would just go flying. What did he die of? I don't know.
He had some sort of organ failure. He has an organ failure.
Some organ thing. Tragic.
What is that? Alp. What is that? That's one of them.
This is Tucker Carlson's nicotine pouch. Oh, he's got his own thing? Yeah, that's Tucker's.
They're good. They're really good.
Are they? Yeah, they're very good.
Tropical?
Well, the people from Zin didn't like him, apparently.
Oh, is that what happened?
He said something joking around that it'll make your dick grow.
Just playing around.
And they said something about...
I don't fuck with Zin either.
We don't think that.
And we don't agree with what he said.
It's not true.
Like, duh.
Duh.
Nobody really thinks it makes your dick grow.
I didn't fuck with Zin before.
I definitely don't know. It's a corporation.
Corpor corporations are owned by sea, you know like the nicotine They're run by people black buffalo who don't want to be involved with anything controversial They probably thought that that being involved with Tucker Carlson was controversial So he started his own thing so he started his own thing. It's really good.
They're better You've seen Tucker drives like a old-school f-100 like? Yeah, because he doesn't want the government to have access to his GPS. No electronics.
He's got a carburetor. Love it.
Well, if you're that guy, if you're doing two-hour episodes about a guy who supposedly sucked Obama's dick. Dude, that was wild.
I had to listen. Bro.
I had to give it a go. You got to be watching your six.
Obama? Bro, what did you do? Dude, that was a fight, man. That was a very good fight.
Yeah, he's got that, though, Matthews, I think. Yeah, he does, but Prado's a badass motherfucker, man.
Yeah, it was a good fight. Jake's so good and tight.
Yeah. Look at this, though.
There's the trip. There's the takedown.
Tucker's way bigger now that he's on his own, yeah? Oh, yeah, way bigger. Way bigger.
He's so good. He's undeniable.
He's a super nice guy. Yeah.
Yeah. Like, I had a friend of mine had him on his podcast, and he has this lady who works with him that's, like, real liberal, and he said she didn't want to like him, but she loved him by the end of the show.
He seems like a nice guy. He's a great guy.
He knows exactly why thought out every position it feels well he's not a liar he was a little weird when he was on fox because you know he's pushing the agenda but then when he went on his own i'm like yeah well towards the end of fox who were towards the end of fox towards the end of his run he was like the only guy on the news talking about real shit yeah and you know and talking about things that were very controversial and people did not want him talking about And that's why they fired him, right? They fired him when he was at the top. That's what's crazy.
He was the number one guy on Fox. That was with Dominion shit, though.
It was a lot of different things. There was multiple different...
I mean, no one was happy. Both the Fox and CNN ratings suck cock.
Final Kid gets more views. Yeah, at this point, it's a weird medium because there's too many commercials You have to watch it at the time that that's how they make money through advertising It's all pharmaceutical companies.
It's just too hard to compete with the internet when you have that Hindering format, but also the news on there it comes out way faster. Oh, yeah, then I'm fucking main Yeah, but I mean they're good for like people that have you know editorial talk and breaking things down in a funny way and showing you clips of people going nutty and You know it's they're good for for certain things that's different than the internet and then they put clips of those things Those things, you know, it's kind of like it's become almost like a viral internet show because each one of them, like the 15-minute ones, when they put them out, those get a lot of views.
Probably more than they even get on television. It's weird because it's like regular television is bullshit.
Nobody wants to watch it. Nobody wants to watch a regular TV.
You also don't trust it anymore. You just don't trust any of it.
They even have sitcoms anymore? Like new ones and shit? Miss Pat is a really good one, but it's on BET's app. She's great.
She's great. But other than that, I don't know anybody who has a sitcom.
I like Tires with Shane Gillis. Oh, that's great.
That's kind of a sitcom. I mean, it's a single camera.
It's like that type of, yeah, it's a show. But it's a comedy show.
Is that on Netflix? It's funny. It's on Netflix.
Netflix got it. They got season two coming.
Oh, that's going to be great. It's all changed so much, man.
That's an enjoyable show. His business has changed.
Changed the man. Theo and David Spader doing a sitcom, right? I think they're doing a movie.
There's some funny shit coming back. I don't want to say the heavyset Greek guy, but I forgot his name.

I thought it was all right. I listened to your recommendation.
It's a movie? People love it, too. It's the best vampire movie of all time.
What do you think of American Prime Evil? Oh, I liked it. It's great.
It's fucking great. Early on, I told you to watch that.
That was fucking good. That's a great show.
It reminds you of the one with Leonardo DiCaprio. Yeah, the Reverend.
I just can't stand here why Brendan Shaw was disrespecting Nosferatu. You know why? If we're going to discuss it, it's going to be a spoiler alert.
How he dies in the end? Just lays down with the chick in the sun? They had a pact. Should give herself to him? Is this a remake of the old movie? Yeah, the old kid? Yeah, but it's got a lot of different shit going on.
But the dude who plays Nosferatu is the same dude who played it He played Pennywise It's really good. It's a good best vampire of all starts with scars something Bill's car.
Yeah, the old man. Yes.
It's good for one episode. I only said that's it man.
I got fell off of it Yeah,? It's good for one episode. That's it, man.
I fell off of it.
It's really good for one episode.
You're like, wow, can they keep this going?
And then it gets stupid.
Oh, it does?
Yeah, they get stupid.
They're like, wait a minute.
They would track you.
This is stupid.
That American Prime Evil. They can find you.
You can't travel across the country.
Shut the fuck.
She's not going to fall in love with you.
You kidnapped her.
This is retarded.
Hey, that American Prime Evil.
So is there a season two?
Or is it just done?
No, it's done.
Peter Berg can make a fucking movie and a TV show.
I'm sorry. in love with you.
You kidnapped her. This is retarded.
Hey, that American Primeval, so is there a season two? No. No.
No, it's done. No, it's done.
Peter Berg can make a fucking movie and a TV. Oh, yeah.
He made Painkiller. He made Painkiller.
Yeah, he's a beast. The Sackler family thing on Netflix.
Why are the Sacklers not on some island somewhere? That's a good question. Penal fucking calling for mass murderers.

We tried to do an algebraic sterling. It was so good.
You watching it? What is it? I'm finished. Oh, I'm on the first season.
What is it? You got such a far way to go. You want to explain it? How do you want to explain this? It is so good.
It's almost like a Twilight Zone type episode. They're trapped in a town.
They cannot leave. And at night, these demons come out and kill everyone.
So they have to hide at night. Monsters come out at night.
Monsters. Demons.
What do the monsters look like? People. What? They look like people.
Yeah. Without giving too much.
Like the first episode, there's a little girl, and all of a sudden at the window, it's grandma. Because they can't come in the house.
They can't come in. So they try to get the kids to let them in the house.
But they devour them. And you can't fight them.
You can't shoot them. They rip you apart.
What are they? That's the thing. It's almost like a Lost type of show.
You're like, wait, what the fuck are they how'd they get there they were all traveling on different parts i don't want to give too much away it's you know what it's hard to explain it is hard to explain it's very complicated what's it on so i bought it on prime i am gm i bought it on uh apple the first season oh apple that's right apple i think yeah oh so good season three i'm all i'm on the first season.

Believable and scary as hell.
Stephen King.
Balls deep in it, man.

I'm going to ride it down.
But anyone else.
It's worse.
This fight was epic.
Fucking Gaslam.
Oh, best man of weight fight of all time.
There's no problem here.
I'm prepared to die. That's what he said there fucking badass best middleweight fight of all time why do all black guys like anime that's not true not all black guys but most people i've never met a black guy in my life who likes anime you never met a black guy that likes anime not one i haven't either are you serious? He's the only one I know.
Really? Yeah. I'm thinking my student Marcus, my brother-in-law Edwin, they love, I mean, I don't know, I can go on.
Is it a younger kid though? I don't know. No, man, Edwin's you know, shit.
40? Yeah, he's 40. That's weird.
Or something. Yeah, I don't know.
Not all black. Let me just put that out there.
Not all black guys. Black guys ain't damn something with anime.
Black guys like anime. You know? It took the place of kung fu movies.
Is that what it is? These NFL players are arguing over their favorite anime show. Are they really? Yeah.
What is it? NFL players. All right.
The first hundred. I just fast forward to 200 and I was like, oh, solid animation.
My daughter was in this anime. Hard.
Interesting. I can't get into it.
Yo, I had my one fighter, young Marcus. He was down two rounds.
And I went in at a third round. I know he loves anime.
I go, Marcus, forget that shit. You'll live in your anime movie and you're the fucking hero.
And I I fucking went nuts and he's like, yeah, yeah! He went out and fucking strangled the guy. I go, dude, come on, man! Black star.
Well, let me see that later, Joe. Thanks, brother.
Alright. That's weird that that worked.
Look at that, kid! What? What did I do? Look at Iz god is fuck yeah that's well worth one of the greatest fights of all time legend in that jacket oh? Did he just get inducted? Yeah, for the Kelvin Gaslam fight. Wow.
Rightfully so. Yeah, rightfully so.
That was an amazing fight. Oh, my God.
That was one of the greatest all-time fights. So good.
Gaslam, Gaslam. Let me work this motherfucker.
Let's just pull down there. Oh.
Oh, here you go. Oh, I got you.
I'm tardin'. Target a lie.
Hey, can I have something where you just go like this? I'm fucking around. Is it working? Nah, I don't know.
Dude, I'd listen. Is it out of juice? Yeah, I'll help you.
Yeah, it's out of juice. Oh, here.
Oh, there you go. Thank God.
I thought I was just a moron. Yeah, there's something in there.
It's in the bottom. Where's your school, Matt? Huntington, Long Island.
Yeah, man. Holy shit.
I met you in like 98. 96, probably.
96. Yeah, when you were on Mad TV.
That's right. At the Gracie Kukuk Academy.
I got my blue belt from Hansel. Matt, remember when I met you? We went to your gym.
It was like you picked us up. You picked us up at the train station.
You had a gig. I was going to fight BJ Penn.
I was leaving that night, I think, to go drive to Connecticut. That's right.
And you had a gig somewhere. I picked you and Eddie Bravo up at the Hicksville train station.
We took a train from the city out to Long Island. Went to Matt's gym.
It was awesome. I showed you my apartment in the basement.
Yes, where you piss into the bucket every night. He was drinking so much water because he was training and living in the gym.
He had an apartment in the gym, and he had a big old piss bucket. So he'd take a jug, like a gallon jug, and stick his dick in it, and put it right and screw it back on so he didn't have to get out of bed.
You know how you don't want to get up? It was the best. I piss in the sink.
I did that for so long that even when I got married, I'd be doing it. And then finally, my wife just says, listen, I'm done.
You gotta, I'm done with that shit. I can't do this.
And I'm like, all right. Piss in a jug next to the bed.
She'd be just, also to just be here in the fucking fucking hitting the fucking Snapple bottle
One time my mother-in-law was over one time she was helping to clean the room. She's like why is that the Snapple? Yeah, man, I don't do that no more But fucking yeah, I'll never forget me.
That was like a awesome thing to see though You had such dedication. You living in the gym He just had a bedroom there He's like all I'm doing is just training Just constant training Living here teaching and training I get flashbacks now Because sometimes like on Mondays I'll do the 7am And I'll do the noon also Before I go home and do Unfiltered with Jimmy So I'll take a nap in my lounge And he brings me like flashbacks classes of when I was younger.
But now I got my castle. Well, how about John Donner? He fucking used to sleep on the mats.
He probably still is. The guy was a professor at Columbia.
John would be... He was working on his PhD in philosophy.
Did John come out here? Yeah, he's out here. He was one of the first guys.
I talked him into it way back in the day. In the of the pandemic during Puerto Rico.
I was like get out of there way You can he's got a great sense of humor to Literally for a long time like they'd say like if you like how you doing he go go fuck yourself Always in a fucking rash guard no matter what He's a fool. Yeah.
Fascinating guy, too. I mean, you want to talk about a cheat code that Gordon Ryan has, and he talks about it all the time.
He's like, you have a guy who's got maybe the greatest mind ever in combat sports, and he's your coach. And he doesn't give a fuck about anything else.
When he's not teaching, he's studying tape. He studies tape all day long.
He's just a robot. He's a minimalist, too, right? Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Dude, Henson was like, sometimes the guy come in, he's not teaching he's studying tape he studies tape all day long he's just a robot he's a minimalist too right yeah oh yeah dude henson was like sometimes the guy come in his head is down he's just feeling like he's too deep man he's too deep always talking about philosophy his head is all like that some days you can't talk to the guy i'm like what do you mean he's too deep the guy's too small for everybody it's crazy too that like one thing that was said to him what the Dean Lester said to him once why would you ignore 50% of the human body? And he's that's that's when he was staying on my futon Really he was staying with me and Rodrigo Gracie at our apartment in Woodmere and I brought him into the city I met him in the 2000 Pro-ams we both competed he competed versus Mark Lehman I went for us Leo there on And we became friendly with that.
And then I had him down. He was training at Longos.
He was staying on my futon. And I'd bring him into the city.
And that's when he met John. Back then, nobody was, at least in head shows, nobody was really working ankle locks.
No, no. He took out most of the academies with that.
He was in there taking out their legs. When Dean was in his prime, he was a fucking monster.
Dean Lister was a monster. He was so hard to deal with.
About as thick as a silverback. And he was obsessed with jiu-jitsu.
You know, Jocko trained with him, and Jocko said, he's got a fucking mind, like a steel trap for jiu-jitsu. Like positions and counters and moves.
It's like, you have to be fucking psych obsessed. It's like chess.
It's just how long can you do it for, right? And then he started fighting in the UFC. And when he was fighting in the UFC, he wasn't a striker.
He didn't have striking. It just wasn't good enough to hang with the best guys.
Because like on the feet, he'd be at such a disadvantage. And it's so hard to get guys down.
It's hard. But when it came to like straight jiu-jitsu Dean Lister was a fucking monster.
Oh, he was great He was so good and he got big
You married Jeff Munson?
Oh my god.
Does he live in Russia now?
Yes, he does. Yes.
He lives in Russia.
He's married to a Russian.
He speaks Russian.
Remember that tattoo on his back?
Oh, yeah.
There's that picture of him against the fucking SWAT team.
Yeah.
He's like protesting.
I think he's... He lives in Russia.
He's married to a Russian. He speaks Russian.
Remember that tattoo on his back? Oh, yeah.
There's that picture of him against the fucking SWAT team.
He's like protesting. I think he's a communist, right?
Oh, yeah, full on.
He's a Russian, bro.
He's like all in. He's all in with Mother Russia.
He always wanted to be a Russian.
He's not a guy you want to get into conflict with.
He's an odd dude, man.
Oh, fuck, yeah, he is.
He's smart.
He was also built dude, man. Oh, fuck, yeah, he is.
He's smart. Yeah.
Smart. He was also built like a grape.
He was like one gigantic muscle. Built like a grape.
It was just a grape with giant arms. He was a tank.
Yeah, definitely not. But I'll tell you what, formidable.
And he was one of the first guys to do north-south chokes. And because he was so strong, people assumed that it was a goon move.
Look at him. That he would just grab your neck and squeeze it.
And then people realized, no, it's basically like a guillotine from a different position. Yeah, he's a badass.
Oh, my God, look at the size of him. That was when he was at full Juicy Juice.
He looks great. Find that picture of him in the riots.
Good fucking, and you can tell the riot guy's like, what the fuck? He's a cartoon. Look at him.
He's standing there with his fucking hammer and sickle tattoo. Guys with big chests that know of...
My father used to be good at that. My father is a black belt on the Henzo.
Just some other guys and then get the joke as well. There it is.
Was he an NCAA champion? He was an internationalist. It's like on his Twitter.
Yeah, and it's like capitalism. He's got a guy with a gun to another guy's head.
It's his capitalism. He's standing in front of these riot guys.
Who took the picture? How tall is the person that took the picture? Tim Sylvia. Tim Sylvia.
Well, it's obviously like an angle shot because he's not that tall, but it's a terrifying... He started as a wrestler, right? He wrestled...
Oh, yeah, he was an excellent wrestler.
He was, like, very, very, very, very hard to beat in jiu-jitsu, too.
How do you choke a guy?
What do you do with that guy? He's got no fucking neck.
He's so strong, too.
Just so strong.
And fucking durable as shit as a fighter, too.
Remember when we fought Chuck Liddell?
Yeah, he was durable, man.
Monson was a monster.
Big fucking dude, man.
There goes Jimmy Crute.
And there we go.
I kind of swore that someone had said this was off the card.
I think they lost three fights.
Mark Cutter does that.
Looks like a sturdy individual.
Oh, he's a big fucker.
He's a black belt.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Oh, boy.
He looks casual.
Am I wrong that Crute used to fight middleweight?
They're big boys, man.
And look at that.
I think so, because...
That haircut is fantastic.
I'm pretty sure he fought middleweight.
That's aerodynamic.
He looks thick.
Yeah.
He looks thick.
It looks like he's wearing a fucking...
It looks like he's wearing Davey Crocket's hat.
Look at that shit.
There we go.
Jimmy Crute's been in some crazy wars. A lotto.
Yeah. Oh, come on.
This one's not going to last long. Snap.
It's that first touch. I think you have heavyweights next, right? You have Tafa and the new kid who's undefeated.
Man, the heavyweight division is so shallow. I was just thinking that the other day because if they don't make John Jones versus Tom Aspinall, what is compelling? Nothing.
Unless they bring Francis back, unless the PFL collapses and he gets released. That could happen.
Oh, boy. Oh, that's a fuck up.
That's a fuck up. That's a big fuck up.
Oh, shit. That's a big fuck up with Jimmy.
It's like starting a fight for Mount. Look at this.
Yeah. Oh, shit.
Oh, he's got the neck. The only way he gets this is if he gives it to him.
If he wants out. This is a terrible position for Mount.
Dude, how's your elbow escape doing, pal? Wow. Come on, man.
Get those hips moving. Yeah, dude.
Early on, too. He's got a good top game, too.
When he is visualizing his head before the fight, he probably didn't visualize this. No, good pressure there with that right bicep, too.
Good pressure on the neck. Hell of a tattoo.
Hell of a fucking tattoo. Jesus, I thing.
His arm looks... Oh, he's hitting some hard shots.
Yeah, shit. Look at this.
Get that smothering shoulder pressure. Smothering! Look at that arm triangle.
Look at that arm triangle. Yeah, that's some good pressure.
He could get his way to three quarters. These are hard fucking left hands, too, and they're not getting blocked.
Like, he's getting some good power in this. He doesn't like it.
Ooh. I don't think he's got any answers.
It's called manicuring to target. Why don't you see the...
Oh, oh, he's going under. He's going under.
He's looking for fucking Kimura. Yeah.
He's looking for anything. He's got good control, though.
He's got good top pressure. He's controlling the hips.
Oh, phenomenal. He's spin to the back after this shit.
He might take a Dars.
He might take a Dars.
Yeah, Anaconda.
Here he goes.
Oh, here he goes.
All right.
All right.
The kid's aware.
Let's see if Pilato's got a guard.
He's getting pummeled.
Yeah.
He's getting pummeled.
Rape choke.
Let's go.
Do they still call it the rape choke?
No.
They got mad at me for calling it that.
They told me they'd not call it that anymore.
What do you call it?
It's the Vanderlei Silver rape choke.
I know.
That's what we used to call it.
We used to call it.
The problem is that in training, we would call it the Rape Choke. And then I said it in competition.
I'm laughing. We lost this fight.
Canceled a weight management issue. That guy's fired.
That was the only one? Oh, that's the one we lost today. That's today's? Oh, yeah.
He can go to three quarters here, too. If we're not calling calling it the rape truck, what should we refer to it as? What did they tell you to call it, Joe? They didn't give me a name.
I said, it doesn't really have another name. And then someone said, you should call it the Eagle Claw.
I'm like, shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.
Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.
Shut the fuck up. I guess you'd call it like a front truck.
Look at this. Ah! Fucking A.
Damn it. God.
Flowing. It's flowing on top.
Nice, man. Oh, big elbows, too.
It's smart. He's beating the shit out of this game.
It's smart than diving for the. It's flowing on top.
It's smart.
It's smart than diving for the back and ending up on bottom.
He's also taking advantage of the dude exploded and then he pummels him with a couple of elbows
when he knows he's trying to relax a little.
This kid's going to be exhausted.
100%. He's already exhausted.
He had to explode to try to get to that position.
And it didn't work.
And now he's demoralized a little bit.
He's going to threaten the Kimura again let's go yeah not much time to work but he's got such dominant position i'd like to see him soften him up some more yeah more damage try to move to him he's trying to get the mount he's gonna push that well he's looking or he can sit back more from there or he can take the. There's a nice Kimura guard pass from there.
Kimura half guard pass. Uh-oh.
Oh, he just has full control. That's it.
He has full control. He's fully confident.
This round's ending on top. The way he rode him right there, that's like, I could just do this all night long.
That was like no worry about losing position. He's just got to get out of that half guard.
I assume the guy on the bottom, those are his coaches. They're going, get up.
But he's doing such a good job controlling. I would say get out of that half car.
He knows his escape routes. Yeah.
Yeah, he doesn't have many options. But he's using the half car to control him a little bit.
Oh, he gets back up. There we go.
Nice. Boom, boom, boom.
Oh, fuck yeah. Oh, he landed one.
He landed one, too. He's exhausted.
Oh, dude. I like this.
20 to go. Oh, he dropped him.
The fuck? Oh. This kid's having the roughest night.
Come on. You got 10 seconds.
Come on. 15 seconds.
Come on. I hope he goes another round.
He just looked up at the clock. It's a rough first round, man.
10 seconds. Come on.
The worst first round. We need a second round.
Elbows. No, we need a second round.
Oh, shit. Don't do it.
Don't do it.
Oh, he's getting hammered.
You're okay.
You're okay.
You're okay.
This will be a 10-8 round, yeah?
Oh, yeah.
10-8 round.
Where I come from, that's 10-8.
10-8 round.
They don't throw out 10-8s too often.
They need to throw those bitches out more often.
Man, they're so stingy to the 10-8s.
I mean, how much time did he have on top?
How much time?
He kept flowing.
Beat him up.
His mouth is closed.
He's breathing.
He's fine.
He got more.
Look who Brian's rooting for. I'm not saying.
I'm just saying. His coaches are going, weird.
Don't do that again. Yeah.
Whenever that was, don't do that. Here's my answer.
I don't think he landed anything. No.
No, that was a 10-8. It's a 10-8.
Yeah. Full domination on the ground.
Brutal ground and pound. Hurt him standing up.
He's playing the turtle, guys. He's playing the turtle first round, guys.
He has a thick neck. He's got a thick neck.
He's fine. His cardio's on point.
What, Jamie? He's not breathing heavy. Five to 62 strikes.
Wow. Five to 62.
Oh, my goodness. That's a lot.
That sucks. If that's not a 10-8 round, bro.
Yeah, it's a 10-8 round. But they need to do that more often because there's too many close rounds that they give 10-9 and then they give a round like this a 10-9.
Damn. I've been saying this forever.
We need to get off that fucking stupid boxing system. MMA has too many factors to just have a 10-point system.
It doesn't make any sense. Why are they not changing that? I don't know.
They should change it. Is it because they don't know how to kind of come up with an agreed upon rule set? Well, Doc Hamilton came up with another system back in the day.
He called it a half-point system, and he explained it to me, and it made more sense. Like, instead of, like, full points for certain things, give half points for certain things.
Remember the masses, though, are familiar with the scoring structure, so they didn't confuse them more? That's PFL's problem. The smart cage? Suck my dick.
Well, here's another problem. Only three judges.
Why? Tell me why. Are judges expensive? Get five judges or six judges.
Have a bunch of judges. But they also shouldn't be cage-eyed.
Sure they should. It's too hard to see.
As long as they have monitors. They have monitors now.
Yeah, but they can get swayed by the crowd. No.
They should be in a disclosed area. No.
There should be five of them. No, they should be in a...
You want to hear the thuds. No, they should be in Ukraine.
No, they should be in Ukraine. No, they should be in Ukraine.
No, they should be in Ukraine. No, they should be in Ukraine.
No, they should be in Ukraine. No, they should be in Ukraine.
You want to hear the thuds. They should be in Ukraine.
You want to hear the thuds. You want to be there while you...
They should be in a drone. you want to hear the thuds.
You want to hear the thuds. You want to hear the thuds.
You want to be there while you're... They should be in a drone.
You want to hear guys yelling at each other. You want to be right there.
Get an aerial point. Kroot's got nice shots.
Because for you to say that, well, I should probably be doing commentary somewhere else, too. But no, you want to be right there.
No, because you're not dictating the fight. That's true, but if I'm not and you don't fight it.
But some of those guys do. No, they don't.
I would rather have you judge the fight. Well, I mean, Lieben is obviously going to do a great job.
Ricardo Almeida is going to do a great job. There's a bunch of people.
Look, the LA card had great scoring. The LA card didn't have any egregious decisions.
There was not one where everybody was like, what the fuck is that? That's pretty rare. That's rare.
A lot of times when it's so atrocious... Dude, you're talking about that dude gets half his fucking pay, you idiots.
I know. It's insane.
It is insane. A tough call's rough any time you get it.
My wife just had a kickboxing match over the weekend. Title fight.
She's 41. She lost a split decision.
I gave her every fucking round. I know it's my wife.
Dude, I'll show you. Sticking and moving combos.
Wow. It was a split decision.
She fought a 26-year-old. My wife's 41.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm so proud.
It's amazing, too, because she got into everything late. Dude, she never...
When I was fighting, she never threw a punch. What? Never threw a punch.
Was she an athlete? Nothing in high school.
Nothing in high school.
Just a little Italian girl.
How old are your kids, Matt?
My oldest is going to be 16 next month.
So did they go to any of your fights?
No.
And they've been to all of them.
I was going to say, they think the mom's the fighter.
Literally, they know the dad.
No, it's funny.
Yeah, no, it's amazing.
Those Italian ladies have genetic anger.
They've got a genetic anger inside of them. Yeah, no, it's amazing.
Those Italian ladies have genetic anger. She's got...
They got a genetic anger inside of them.
Yeah, they're strong.
And muscular.
Your wife's Italian, too?
No.
I gave off on Italians when I was 21.
Oh, you're funny.
I was like, eh, I can't be dating my people.
What is your wife?
I can't be dating my people.
A lot of Viking shit.
This is a good fight. Your wife, she's white girl.
She came off the Mayflower Sun. No, she's Irish.
Half Sicilian, half Sicilian. Oh, she's half Sicilian? Your wife? Yep.
Pallotta's wearing a lot of good solid leg kicks. Isn't it crazy, Matt? Your whole career get calf kicked once? Not once It's a new trend I'm so happy it came after Did you get kicked in the thigh though? Not a ton right? Well I mean yeah In training Not so much in fights Matt who was that? I was good at catching it And coming with a right To be honest I'd want guys to kick Because you can take them down Oh yeah I was good at catching it Right hand down the middle But isn be honest.
I'd want guys to kick because you can take them down. Oh, yeah.
I was good at catching it right hand down the middle. But isn't it crazy? There's never been a technique like the calf kick where all of a sudden it came along and everybody had it and changed the course of fights.
And it's nothing crazy. Nothing crazy.
Nothing crazy. Just kicking it lower.
We still don't know why the ties never did it. Or do it.
Why? Well, they stand with that left leg light. Oh, is that what it is? Because they don't have to worry about takedown.
So they stand stand straight up. So they stand straight up, and you see the ties fight, that left leg is very light.
So they check it. It's just not good for getting taken down.
It's not a good strategy, unless you have elite, like, BJ Penn-type balance. These guys are fucking banging, man.
Yeah, he's coming back. Jesus.
That guy is so fucking tough. He's so fucking rugged.
He's actually, but he's also kind of like catching a lot of the shots off his glove. He's putting up a good round after getting dominated.
Yeah, and he's actually, a lot of the shots are grazing. Well, he's landing a lot of hard leg kicks, man.
He did it again and again and again. That left leg, Kruitz is going to get chewed the fuck up.
What are you saying? Did you say Kruitz is going to knock him out? Yeah, I think Kruitz is going to knock him out. Really? He's landing pretty flush.
Theroot's going to. He's also exhausted.
Oh, you might be right. He just tagged him with two hard ones, man.
Yeah, he's catching him a lot now. Kroot's just a better boxer.
This kid's hands are down. Oh.
He's getting tired. Those low kicks, though, are brutal.
Oh, oh, oh, oh. This kid is rugged.
Jesus. They're both.
God, dumb. He's got enough snap on it.
I'm going to. Oh, another low kick.
Not good for your head. I'm telling you, he limped a little on that one.
Okay, he don't like it. Nope.
He's trying to change stances. Yeah, his left leg's fucked right now.
Dude, you're right. Bellator's earning his fucking...
I didn't see that. Oh! He wheel kicked in the back of the head.
He kicked the mullet. Oh, he tried to do one himself.
Looked like Charlie Brown, though. Oh, that was terrible.
But it's also his left leg is toast.
He tried to spit it on that. He didn't know.
Yeah, it's like, oh, this thing don't even work anymore.
That was a great round.
It was a great round.
I don't know who won that round.
Oh, the other dude.
I think Kruitz got this.
Yeah, he won.
I think the other guy's got to go for broke.
He has to, especially that first round, 10-8, even if you won that last round.
He's tired, though.
Yeah, he's ahead one round for sure.
At least one point.
Yeah.
Even if that guy got 10-9 this round.
Yeah.
So you have to go loses the next round. I don't think so.
I think Kroot's well ahead. Give him to Kroot again? I mean, you just don't know.
I think also they're in Australia. They're probably going to favor Kroot.
Yeah. Well, Kroot's catching him more.
He definitely hit him with some good shots. Yeah, he hit him with the more meaningful blows, for sure.
But damn, that's a lot of damage.
He's soccer kicking his leg.
How much does that count for?
I don't think as much as headshots.
With the judges. The judges don't.
Definitely not as much as headshots, but man, it should mean
a lot. Like when Pereira hits you there,
it's just a few of those, and you see
guys like, even guys like Jan Bohovich, who's made out of metal. That guy was limping.
Like he didn't like it. He's like 43 now.
How old is he? Jan is like in his 40s, but still top of the heap. People keep leaving him out of the discussion, but that guy went to a draw with Ankalaev and I mean, he's the first guy to go to decision.
No, second guy. Bruno Silva went through decision with Alex, too.
By the way, you're right, Joe.
That low kick is causing some problems.
Oh, yeah.
He keeps switching up.
Bro, his left leg is fucked.
Makes you gun shy as fuck.
He's landed like 30 of them.
He keeps kicking them.
Jan's okay because heavyweight's pretty light, too.
Well, I mean, just people are sleeping on him.
They're not bringing up Jan Bohovich into the discussion of, like, who's next. It's Yuri.
It's these guys. It's that guy.
It's like you've got to bring Jan into that discussion. And he just went through major surgery.
He had a shoulder surgery. Yeah.
Yeah, he tore something in his shoulder. I don't know when he's ready to return.
I don't even know if he's done rehab. I'm not sure.
But, I mean, out of respect, I feel like you've got to bring that guy up. He's an animal a Joe out of left field, but with the stem cells you when you get that shit out here Do you get the IV or yes? I get well.
Yeah I plan on going to Columbia with my well More down there okay, I did I'm thinking they can do a lot but it might I don't know What the actual dose you need is So this is what Brigham's argument is that ways to well is like look we have an amazing results With what we can use here in America and I they definitely use more cells in these other places and there's certain things they can do like in Mexico and Panama and Colombia that they just can't do here. I the question is is it effective? This is the problem with it not being like legalized with the FDA Because if it was and you could do in Mexico what you could do here, then you would be able to say oh this is too much This is the right amount do more than this.
It's just like your body doesn't utilize it It's like there's a number that you're probably gonna get to that's the right amount of cells. We don't really know.
All we know is it works. We do know it works, though.
The science is here. I had a full-length rotator cuff tear in my shoulder.
It's gone. See, that's what I'm saying, man.
I never had shoulder issues, and now I'm feeling my right shoulder bad. It's just so rough on your shoulders.
Do you think how many times you're in weird positions and you're pushing off and you're scrambling and your arm hits the ground? I know, and I'm still on the mat, so I want to keep the body together. We can get you here.
We can get you in here. And if that works, you don't need anything else.
But the other thing is peptides. Get yourself some BBC 157, TB 500.
Peptides? Yeah, it's the Wolverine stack. Travis Pastrana is talking about he had a fucking shoulder problem for two years.
I think his shoulder. He did stem cells.
No, he did BP157. He said that in a week it was gone.
It was gone in a week. I had a knee issue.
I hit you up about doing stem cell and then I started that BC157 from Transcend. Dude, I don't have any
issues with my knee. It's incredible.
You gotta text that to me. Sounds like a fucking
droid. You turn into
Wolverine. It heals.
It heals
quick. Dude, look at this.
And that's why it's
illegal. This is interesting.
I need it. Well, why are you using
something that's not approved by the FDA, Brendan?
I turned 50, man.
I need this shit. Why are you using something that's not.
Why are you giving out advice in a public forum not approved by the FDA? I mean, I don't like looking in the mirror. It just gets worse every fucking six months.
Just go bald like these guys, Brian. I hope it's all changes with RFK.
If he gets in, I hope that peptides become everywhere. It can help a lot of people.
And by the way, this fucking Wagovi shit, this Ozempic shit, that's a peptide. Is it? Yeah, GLP-1 agonist.
Wow. I hope he chills out on the vaccines for kids, too.
Yeah. Yeah, I think so.
Oh, my God. Another low kick.
Oh, my goodness. So that left kick, that left leg route has got to be fucked up.
I can't believe this guy's still even in the fight, though. It's a good fight.
Yeah, fuck up. He's borderline winning this third round.
He's doing good this round. Kevin Aioli, he's pretty fucking good at judging fights.
He's been around for fucking ever. Gave him the last round.
Your guy, Brian. He did.
He has it in 1919. See, the thing is, it's like those leg kicks have compromised him so badly, and he keeps landing them.
Like, Crute just can't get off. He can't move right right now.
See, even like he's closing the distance. He scored there.
Yeah, but he's falling forward. His left leg is all fucked up.
Oh, he's scored again, though. He is making contact with his head.
He's making contact, but he's limited to one leg in his arms.
Yeah.
He's still catching him.
Oh, my God.
He's trying to go southpaw now.
Jesus, this is rough.
Bro, that low kick has changed this whole fight.
Another one.
It has, dude.
He hit him another one.
Another one.
He's soccer kicking that one.
And another one.
Bro, it's just he's relentless with that low kick.
And I love when guys do that. I want to see more of that because it changes everything.
Oh, shit. Bro, it's just he's relentless with that low kick.
And I love when guys do that.
I want to see more of that because it changes everything.
Oh, my God.
Dude, keep your tongue in your mouth, bro.
Get that shit.
Oh, he just slapped him.
Give him a fucking smack.
Give him a tomahawk.
So disrespectful.
Damn, he ran into the cage.
Oh, no, they're cool.
That's fucking smacking them.
Isn't that crazy?
That was insane, dude.
He hit him with a karate chop. Good God.
A jumping karate chop. I think Crude got it.
I think so, too. Who knows, man? Hell of a fight.
It's close. That could be a draw.
If anything, it's a draw. That could be a draw.
I would have to go watch the second round and not talk. Yeah, I think.
Oh, back kick. Honestly, he caught him with the toes, though.
Spent more time on top. And did he get a 10-8 round? Yeah, you're also assuming a 10-8.
When you land a back kick with the toes, it doesn't have much on it because your foot gives. So when you land it with your toes like that, sidekick style, your foot gives.
You really want to land it with the heel. Like Jon Jones did with Stipe.
Gnarly. A heavyweight to do a spinning Lordy.
And perfect. You see, we watched it in slow-mo to watch his ribs cave in.
Nasty. Bro, it was like halfway into his body cavity.
Rough. Why is he sticking his tongue out? Dude, he was doing that for like fucking ten, five seconds.
That's the last few seconds of the fight. Can you jab that shit? You lose your tongue He's gonna be limping for all for a good two weeks.
Oh, yeah Those like kicks small up so much You took those from Gonzaga that must have been at the next morning at the airport. I have to be in a wheelchair Are you serious? Yeah, I beat the brakes off him and I was in a wheelchair.
He's walking around. Oh That kicks are horrible the worst remember you Aldo and Uriah favorite That was the worst one.
Here it is. Watch this.
Watch how deep John's heel goes into Stipe's body. Look at this.
Boom. Oh my God.
Look how deep it goes into his fucking rib cage, bro. That's how you break all your ribs.
All of his organs just had to get compressed. Fuck you.
Perfect. It's like a horse kick in you.
Perfect spinning back kick. It's like a horse.
It's like a horse. Bro, it's such a powerful kick.
There's so much torque. Boom.
Look how deep it goes in. That is so crazy.
Oh, my God. Oh.
Here's the judging. It's a draw.
He won. Now Kroot won Majority draw Really? Wow He should have That means he didn't get that I don't get it That's the 10-8 round The first round That means the other guy won the next two And that's it I don't One judge gave it for Kroot Wow that's surprising We'd have to watch that second fight Or second's close? Nobody got robbed.
You wouldn't say crew got robbed. Shit.
I have no problem with draws. Oh, no, we got the heavyweight.
That dude's a savage. Diego Lopez versus Yair Rodriguez is what they're going to do.
That'll be sick. Is that what they're doing? That's what they're going to do.
That's going to be sick. That's what I heard.
I think Lopez is just announced it. I don't know how Yair gets down to 45.
That fucking guy's huge.
Six feet. So is Lopez, bro.
Lopez.
Lopez is big.
Fuck yeah.
Diego's big.
And Diego's got some power.
Those fight nerds are onto something.
Steve Ercig.
Brandon Murray.
That's a good fight.
Ercig.
Ercig had a great fight with Pantoja.
He did.
He's a big dude.
Real close fight with Pantoja. Real close fight.'s a big dude.
Real close fight with Pantoja.
Real close fight.
And when you know how good Pantoja is, that's super impressive.
Who's Murab fighting next?
O'Malley?
That's a good question.
I don't think that's...
Nothing's been even out there.
I mean, they're just letting him have his victory lap now before they start talking about who's next.
They should.
He deserves it.
But you would want...
I'd like to see Sanhagen, but he has to have a win, right? Like he lost to Umar. I wouldn't be mad if they just gave him a shot, though.
Diego Lopez dismisses Yair Rodriguez's rumors, wants Volkanovsky at UFC 314. Oh, he dismissed the rumors.
I think Diego needs one more before he fights for a title. One more tough guy.
Hey, what about Peter Jan versus Umar? Who's winning with that? What'd you say? Peter Jan versus Umar. That's a great question.
Peter Jan looks fantastic. And he switches it up, too, with the grappling, too.
I love his trip. I love that front trip he does on everybody.
Oh, yeah. Do you think what Merab did to Peter Jan? How many fuck? 30 takedowns? Shot 30 takedowns? Animal.
You do 30 takedowns in this fucking studio, you're fucking dog. of my favorite moments Everything did you see his last fight after he had surgery and came back What do you have surgery we're talking about it? Yeah, you and I watch that.
Yeah, what was he? What do you have surgery on I think shoulder? Damn, he's fucking great man. I mean Sean motherfucking Strick.
He's keeping the perf stash. I like it.
I love him. Do you think he had staff on his left arm? Sure looks like it, doesn't it? It looked like staff to me.
Do it look like staff to you, Matt? Yeah, it's hard to tell. I mean...
It could be ingrown hair. Yeah, it could be a fucking ingrown hair.
Ingrown hair or staff. Or staff.
That's what it is. It could be staff.
Ingrown hair becomes staff. Yeah.
A lot of times. Folliculitis.
If this fight goes past the first round, we're fucked. But homeboy on the right is a problem.
Is he? Don't judge him off that body shot. What about Taffa? Don't judge him off of his body either.
Taffa can fucking crack. He's Simone, so it doesn't count.
Taffa can fucking crack. He's Simone, so he's Moana style.
It doesn't count. Tafa is a dangerous fellow.
Yeah, that's not that body. Oh, my goodness.
But he's 7-0, undefeated prospect. They put him on here for a finish.
Like, you know, if you're here, if you're third on the card, you've got to go for finishes. Is he Brazilian? Teixeira.
Oh, yeah. Looks it.
He's a savage from Brazil. Finisher.
I like a dude with an eyebrow scar, too. Both of them.
He has a head like a Lego piece, right? Yeah. I mean, it's about 7-0.
7-0. He's a problem.
Bro, is Mark Hunt really fighting Ben Rothwell in bare knuckle fighting? That's what I heard. In BKFC? Yeah.
Jesus Christ. You see Ben Rothwell? Do you see his KO? Yes.
Oh, my goodness. That was cool.
He's built for bare knuckle. Beautiful.
Ben has a great cut in. One punch.
He's built for BKFC. He's an animal, too.
That's a big fucker, too. Rothwell responds to Mark Hunt's call out, let's fucking go, motherfucker.
Jesus. I'll watch that.
Perfect. Why do they have to give you an asterisk, pretend it doesn't have a U there.
Why do they do that?
That's so stupid.
Silly.
Damn, this dude's big.
Yeah.
Big, long prospect.
What's his weight?
How tall is this fucking guy, dude?
All the weight.
How's his ground game?
6'7", 260.
Wow.
Or 6'280.
6'7", 260.
Dude, I could fucking walk between his legs.
Oh, yeah.
That dude that Francis beat up in Bellator or GFL? That guy was scary. That guy was scary.
How old is Francis now? He's got to be getting up. 37? 49.
Oh, he's only 37. What did he say? 49.
You never know. You never know.
It doesn't matter. Well, dude's from Cuba.
They've always said yoel's 50 yeah i think the old guys you what is that the league are you with that yeah talk to me i'm comfortable oh is it legit it's happening yeah so they're throwing a lot of money around right throwing a lot of money around is that how they got guys like wide men all these guys to come out of retirement longos coaching yeah longos coaching kate velasquez. Cain Velasquez coaching.
Javier Mendes. Who's fighting? What are the people that are fighting? The main fight that I'm told is Dylan Dennis, Tony Ferguson.
Oh my God. Shogun's back.
Fabrizio Verdum is back. I thought Fabrizio retired.
A lot of people retired, right? They decided fucking... There's enough money.
They coaxed them in with the money. So this is card No, that's the Brazilian team That's the Sao Paulo
So there's six teams, New York, Miami
LA, Sao Paulo
Abu Dhabi
And London
Wow
What about Wyman
I'm laughing at Wyman retiring
And then also the next day
You see him on his fucking day
You know what I love about it? Longo picked Wyman
I'm laughing at why I've been retiring and then also the next day you see my You know, I love that long ago picked Weidman second one. What the fuck? Who do you pick first? I want to say Kevin Lee to the Pettis versus Jeremy Stevens is why oh my god Hector Lombard and yo Romero the battle of Cuba Yes, they used to train together.
They're on the same team, bud. Oh, my goodness.
The Miami roster.
I don't know. How did they get this fucking cash?
Yeah, where's the guy getting all the money?
They got some Saudi money.
Let me tell you something.
Marlon Marais, at one point in time, I thought he was the man.
Me, too.
I thought when he knocked out Aljo, I was like, oh, my God.
He might be the guy.
It was a rough start for him and Marab, too, with that fight.
The crazy thing about that is.
How about Cejudo? He fucked Cejudo up in the first round He's oh, I remember that. Yeah, but my Rob was so wild cuz at the same round Almost it almost stopped got stopped because Rob switched it around and it's beating the crap out of him by the end of it Gay guard man gay guard is a guy that people been sleeping Yes.
He still has a lot of fights. He got out of
his PFL Bellator contract to fight in GFL.
He couldn't get any fights. Why couldn't they give him fights?
I don't understand. He couldn't fight anyone.
So they're talking about
Gegard, Luke Rockhold. That'd be a dope fight.
Could they not get someone to fight him
or they didn't want to pay?
They didn't want to pay because he had a high contract.
They let him go.
I just had Kat Zingano down at the school doing a seminar.
She's great. She did a great seminar.
But when you think about all the leagues, it's the same business model as anything. You get the casuals in with the huge names, with like Woodley, Shogun, Rashad, so people pay attention.
And then you have the young guys like Kevin Lee. You got Sage Northcutt.
So you're hoping the young guys eventually take over. I thought Rashad said he wasn't signed up to it.
So here's the thing with that. I was there.
I was seeing Darren, the owner of GFL Tech's his manager. And he goes, yes.
So he didn't have straight dialogue with Rashad, but he assumed the agent representing him. When he says yes, he's good to go.
So he announced and Rashad's like, I never said yes like that's between you and your agent homeboy i see yeah what is dry is that your shirt drive fast all gas bro where's mine where you don't like those i like those but but i like the way it looks what does it say in the back anti-electric vehicle club oh how dare you well no you can drive it in You drove here an electric vehicle. I didn't ask for that.
I asked for your GT fucking Ford GT. Your electric vehicle is something else.
I'm a little jealous. I'm not in the car.
But like I was telling you, my thing was I was so angry at Newsom trying to ban combustion engines. I fucking had so much anger, but now I'm moving to Austin.
It's kind of leaving. Good, good.
Tesla's got a factory here. I know.
Get yourself a Cybertruck and put the Fighter and the Kid logo all over. Just drive around town like a pariah.
We need a revamp. Let's go, baby.
I'll have Callen drive that. Those things look so odd.
Callen will drive it. I'll do that for you, Callen.
Can I get a clip here, a clipper? It's on the lighter. Oh, I'm sorry.
Where's the lighter? Who's got the lighter? Oh, right here. Did that work for you, man? It's on the back of the lighter.
Did you get to work for you? The back of the lighter pops back, and there's a clipper. Did you get that lighter to work? Yes, yes, thank you.
That's a clipper. Just push it back.
I'm sorry. Six, seven, dude.
Dude. Six, seven.
Dude, there was one time in the airport. I took the shuttle over, and it was me, and I was talking to him.
Very nice guy, Stefan Struve. Oh, he's the best.
Oh the best. And then we started walking through the airport together.
I go, hey, man, I got to go to your. I can't do this.
I feel like I'm walking with like a kid with his dad. He's legit.
Legit. He's seven foot.
Yeah. He's gigantic.
He's fucking huge. I ran into Mark Hunt at the airport and I was like starstruck because I love Mark Hunt.
Yeah. As a K1 fan, I was like, man, it's kind of crazy that people don't know who you are and just wandering around this airport.
You're a legend. The hardcores do, though.
They're freaking out. That would be crazy if you fought Rothwell and Bare Knuckle.
Oh, my God. This is my thing.
Who the fuck signed up to fight Y'all Romero and Bare Knuckle? Some poor savage dude. He fought a guy from Power Slab and he fucking decapitated him.
That was horrifying. That was hard.
Remember when he just jumped up in the air for no reason and then move towards the guy Just like watch what I can do He saw him jump up in the air is like, oh no What I can't do that when he fucked up he jumped up like one of them the sci-war It looks like effortless. Like it was the Matrix.
Now they just bounce. Those facade people just bounce.
When he fought the Grog hold, he just exploded.
That's where he caught him. He can close distance like when he knocked out Weidman with that flying knee.
In his 40s. He sneaks you into this rhythm.
He sneaks you into a rhythm. He relaxes you and then it fucking explodes on you.
He did it to Izzy. He caught Izzy with a haymaker of a left hand.
That's why Izzy didn't play the game. They're so boring.
He's like, fuck you. You go fight that 50-year-old kid.
He was getting kicked in the leg, kicked in the leg for five rounds. They go, how's your leg? He gets up and starts dancing.
Yeah, he don't feel shit. There's no way this fight goes past the first round.
Jeez. No, this kid's a savage.
Oh, my God. Nice kicks.
He skips the chest, Dave. How is his...
Well, he's got to make weight. He probably can't put on any muscle.
He can put on some muscle. What is his ground game? Oh, my God.
He shoots for a fucking takedown. That's crazy.
He's got a ground game? Does he have a ground game? I don't think Taffa does. We haven't seen it because we haven't...
Oh, nasty. Oh, we heard him already.
That was an illegal knee. That was an illegal knee.
Was it? Was he down? Yeah, he was down when he hit him with that knee.
Holy shit.
I'm pretty sure with the new rules, he might not have had his knee all the way to the ground yet. We'd have to see it again.
And it was in transition, though, so he's good, right? My first instinct was that was an illegal knee. And he's a little upset.
I think he knocked him down first, Joe. He definitely did.
Oh, yeah. He definitely did.
That elbow to the fucking grill. Taffa looks mad.
He's upset. I think that they stopped it, or is it the knee? It's the elbow that put his ass down.
He wasn't defending himself. It was.
It was. But that knee.
But it was in transition. Here we go.
Here we go. If it's in transition, I think you're good.
Perhaps. It depends on how much time has elapsed between the shots.
Shot a high double. So there's the knee to the body.
Watch his elbow. Yeah, the elbow is nasty.
That's a nasty knee, too. Boom! Oh, my goodness.
Oh, my goodness. It was perfect.
Right there. See, fully down.
Fully down. It hit his body.
Knee to the body, though. It did it? I thought it hit the head.
Let's see it again. Look at his nose.
This for sure breaks his nose. Oh, my God.
That's insane. That's so good.
That's so good. Oh, it's indebted.
100%, bro. 100%.
That nose is gone. And then watch the knee here.
It hits his... We'll see it again.
Yeah. Boom.
Oh, my God. That elbow is nasty.
That's got to suck. Boom.
Oh, no, man. That's in the head.
That knee's in the head. Is it? It looked like it right there.
Am I wrong? I couldn't see. I do think that he was already covering himself up.
Well, listen. It was all she wrote.
That elbow was all she wrote. That elbow probably broke his face.
If you're Tophie, you can't be mad. It's not like that knee end of the fight.
Now we got the co-main in main. I'm going to use the head real quick.
Let's go. Let's go.
I hope Tatiana just fucking molly whops her. I don't know, man.
I'm a big fan of Zhang Weili. Nah, Tatiana.
Zhang Weili has been training with those two guys from that gym in Thailand with those two guys from Iowa, those two wrestlers. They're brothers.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those guys.
And what gym is that? Bang. Bang.
I think it's called Bang Tao. Bang Bang Tao Bang Tao Yeah yeah There's not enough hours In the day
For her to compete
In grappling
Against Tachino
That's true
But you can practice
Like neutralizing
Pace and defense
Because like
If she can survive
And then get it into
The third, fourth, and fifth round
That lady's an animal
Yes
Great athlete
And on the feet though
Choke the fuck out
True
In the first round
Look it's gonna be exciting
I'm excited
But on the feet
Jean Whaley is a fucking monster
She puts bitches away
Tachino's not bad on the feet
No disrespect to the ladies
Thank you. the fuck out.
True. In the first round.
Look, it's going to be exciting. I'm excited.
But on the feet, Jean Whaley is a fucking monster. She puts bitches away.
Tatiana's not bad on the feet. No disrespect to the ladies.
Tatiana, but here's... I mean, with all due respect, she puts bitches away.
Here's the thing about Tatiana. Her striking's not bad either.
Like, she's no punk. And she's tall.
Tall and long. She's big.
And have you seen what she does to girls on the ground? Mauls them. Mauls them.
Mauls them.
It's just like the early days of the UFC when elite wrestlers would take people back. You're fucked.
The early days.
What?
Look at the size of that dude.
She's been drawn.
That's a big fella.
Yeah, he's a giant.
That guy in the back looks like he's seen some combat.
So that guy just rose to the top of the heap.
I'll tell you what, he's a fucking problem.
Yeah, he's a problem.
But let's see what his ground game is like.
Because Aspinall is fast as fuck. He's a black belt, too.
Black belt on the ground. Nah, give this kid Cirogan.
Keep it exciting, give him a Cirogan type of fight. Yeah, you have to.
You can't give him Aspinall right away from Tafa. But this is his introduction, right? How many fights has he had in the UFC now? That was his debut.
His debut. 7-0, 7 finishes.
He's a prospect. So what we have now is some new blood.
Now we've got to get some more. You know who they should try to get? I don't know if he's out of his contract.
It's Nemkov. Oh, Nemkov is good.
Nemkov was the... He was 205, right? Then he moved up to heavyweight.
This Russian cat. He's fucking good man he's a proud he's really good real good super well-rounded all-around I'm very curious see what uncle I took over Bellator's contracts and they're releasing everyone like a fucking Sunday sale so I hope I guess Aaron Pico I hope we get Aaron Pico is a free agent I hope we get Aaron Pico GFL gets him fuck off he's wasted all.
Yeah, these other organs people don't know how good that kid is So good he got No, see this is a problem. No, yeah, and then one like nine in a row.
You got it twisted You're out of the loop. They pushed him too soon too fast in in Matt's square garden I was working right square garden.
He lost he got caught in a guilty He's one a shit young guy was like 20 years old. Yeah, he was fucking wrestling internationally at 16 years old
Why are you yelling at him and boxing with very well?
Oh man, tight to we boss to try to drink out of my shoe
You can't drink out of my shoe. I did know what's Kyle in the back? You can't drink out of my shoe.
I did a show with him. It's disgusting.
No, no, no. You know they put a loo.
I threw up. I threw up.
It's so weird. It's like thinking how much ass you've eaten in your life.
I'm not doing that shit. But that's different.
That's a good way to put it. That's a guy spit.
That's the last thing I thought about. It's nasty.
Here it is, baby. I don't care if you ate ass or not.
I love this lady. She's such a fucking savage.
Savage, dude.
She's so ferocious.
Her drive, too.
Ooh, Tatiana's looking sharp.
She's big, too.
She's going to fuck her up.
Like, immediately look big.
And they both have long layoffs, too.
Yeah, she's a fucking hoss, dude.
She's a problem.
A problem on the ground.
Really?
So what injuries did she have?
She had quite a few injuries.
A neck injury was the main one.
Was it a surgery?
I think so, yeah.
What did they do? I'm not sure. They defused the disc? Oh, no.
They defused it? I think so. Oh, my goodness.
Yikes. A lot of guys have the fucking fake disc.
I mean, Aljo had the fake disc and it came back better than ever. Like, Aljo got an artificial disc in his neck and then beat Peter Jan bad in the rematch.
Manhandled him. Tatiana's thing is she won, let me think, she won Ultimate Fight, I think, 24 in 2016.
Wow, isn't that crazy? And then she's had such a long layoff because of all the injuries. Did you see this Anthony Mackie? He's playing Captain America, and he said, he goes, I'm playing Captain America, but he said something like, basically.
He's not for America. Yes, he basically said, but it makes no sense because Captain America is for justice and for fair play and all that.
Cool, move to Ukraine. It was a problem.
It was a big problem. It was a PR crisis.
That guy's not my Captain America. No, that's not my Captain America.
That guy's a pussy. That's a John L.C.
Rogers. Isn't it weird that they feel like they have to say stuff like that to keep working? It's weird.
But the movie studio goes, hey, fuckface. It's not good for numbers.
Now Americans aren't going to go to fucking Captain America. It's terrible for numbers.
He's out. You know who really fucked up? Bautista.
He went all in against Trump. Remember he did that video calling him a little bitch and all his different things? What was that about? He did the whole thing where he's working out.
You're a little bitch. You're a little fat.
You look like a bag of milk. Fucking hit the bag.
Just bad jokes. Doing working out.
Fucking looking jacked. Better to stay out of politics if you're an actor.
Hey, did you guys see the new Superman trailer? Did you see that shit? No. No, is it good? Come on, man.
You'll get your nipples hard. Really? Joe, did you see it? No, we're grown men.
I don't even like Superman. Please stop being such a fucking...
I'm with you. Lighter fluid? Who's playing Superman? Is it Henry Cavill? Hey, don't tell me you're not going to watch that movie.
It's the grown-up. It depends who the Superman is.
I am not going to watch that movie. Really? No, I think Superman is stupid.
It depends who the Superman is. I think it's just like living in space.
If you were living in space, eventually your body would decay. You're coming from a place with more gravity.
It's not going to be good for you on Earth. When you get back to your planet, you're not even going to be able to walk.
This is stupid. Captain negativity.
He can make the world go back in time because he can go so fast in a circle. Dude, look at him though.
He's cold and he's getting pissed. But he's from other planets.
What happened to the original Superman? Hold on. What do you mean? He broke his neck and died.
What did he say? Not Christopher Reeves. I'm talking about the last guy.
They've had a bunch of Superman. They're rebooting it.
It's like they do Spider-Man. They've had like 80 Spider-Mans.
No, Tobey Maguire's my Spider-Man. How many fucking Hulks have they had? They, uh, you know what happened? Mark Ruffalo? Who's this kid? It's politics.
Makes it hard to root for the Hulk. James Gunn is rebooting the whole DC universe.
James Gunn's good, too. They try to cancel him.
Superman is breathing and stuff. I mean, he's bleeding.
You guys watched The Penguin? Yes! This part's a little tough. I don't know how Joe's going to take this.
What? What's going on? Is he running through the storm there? No, this is probably... I haven't seen this in a super minute.
Let me see this. A dog saves him? No, no.
It's the first time. Jesus Christ.
Is that a super... You're not watching it, you...
Wait a minute. Is that a fucking super dog? Look at this.
Is that a super dog? I'm out. First of all, if you're not watching it with the sound, then you should just shut it off.
That dog had a mouth.
It doesn't do it justice.
Look at Lex Cooper.
Does the dog fly?
Lex Luthor?
Can I just...
No, you said Lex Cooper.
I'm cigar drunk.
I'm cigar drunk.
He's like, yeah, I have a Porsche.
That's Guy Gardner, by the way.
Porsche 912.
There's Hulk, girl.
Shut up.
Listen, guys, this is serious. You're like Zuckerberg with the same energy same vibe you don't know what the fuck you're talking about look it's got super dogs dragging him to safety it's over listen to me the dog i watch this with the sound look at the dog why is the dog able to drag him you communist you don't like dogs what the fuck why is that dog able to drag him oh he's kissing that girl in space, you big show off.
He's taking that girl up in the sky to make out with her. That looks terrible, bro.
Hey, Matt, the dog's a bad choice, huh? Yeah. Matt kind of took me out of it.
I thought the dog would be a bad choice. I thought the dog.
But. I thought the dog was a bad choice.
I don't think James Gunn could do any wrong. I agree.
He's great. James Gunn.
He's the man. He's the man.
I'll see it for him. Look three Guardians of the Galaxies were fucking good.
Phenomenal. Phenomenal.
He knows how to make you care about characters that you never heard about. I don't care about that dog.
Like a fucking raccoon. That fake Superman dog.
Look, in the comic books, it's a Superman dog. Did you like Guardians of the Galaxy? Crypto, the super dog.
Did you like... Hey, Mr..
Grover, did you like Guardians of the Galaxy?
I did.
Oh, what is a talking raccoon?
How could you watch that?
I loved it.
Talking tree.
You know what?
Dude, you know what?
If anybody can make a Superdog awesome, it's James Gunn.
James Gunn.
Did they try canceling James Gunn for being mean on set?
I think so, yeah.
Did they?
He's too great, too talented.
Nah, I think it was some tweets he did back in the day or some shit.
Some bullshit.
Whoopsies.
But anyway.
Yeah, he was saying funny things. We're all looking forward to it.
Yeah, except me. I'm confused.
I stopped rooting for the Hulk when he started wearing glasses. I was like, you're lying to me.
This is not the Hulk. You can't have the Hulk where he's got Bruce Banner's fucking brain and the Hulk's body.
No. That's bad eyesight.
It's supposed to be he changes and now he's this fucking ferocious monster. It's true.
And he doesn't remember what fucking happened. Wait, the Hulk has glasses? You're saying? Yeah, the new Hulk has glasses and he lost weight and he got shorter.
Well, listen. He lost the fight to Thanos and he became a pussy.
I'll tell you what. The 2008 Hulk was pretty good.
What size? That was the one with Ed Norton and Hicks and Gracie. I like 1977.
Yeah, that was a good one. That Hulk was awesome.
Yeah. That Hulk was fucking terrible.
Mark Ufalo is such a pussy. Eric Bono is great.
You know the real problem? He was all right. I think Ed Norton was the best one.
But here's the problem is the pants. The pants don't make any goddamn sense.
They don't make any sense. I want to see that big green dick just swinging around while he's smashing things.
There's no way he's wearing 160-pound dude's pants. Yeah, facts.
That don't make no sense. Facts.
He weighs 8,000 pounds. He's as big as a fucking building, and somehow the pants cover his dick.
It'd be great if his dick stayed the same size. Look at the size of him.
Yeah. That's the Hulk.
They're humans. That's what the Hulk's supposed to look like.
I don't like when they made him smart. Do you think the studios tell Mark Ruffalo? They'd like, shut the like shut the fuck up to know what's gonna go see it.
They don't care. They're all in the bubble Mark Ruffalo is a woke guy politics.
I like him as an actor though. He's good actor He's a lot of fotscatcher crazy.
They're crazy people. Yeah, I really good Edward Norton was good Edward my favorite in there fucking favorite.
He had Hickson in there. Fucking breathing.
Yes.
Smacked him in the face.
Yeah.
Gotta keep him calm.
Remember that?
Eric Bannon wasn't bad.
Bannon wasn't bad.
But look, that's smart Hulk.
Hulk is smart now.
Oh, She-Hulk was a pile of shit.
She-Hulk was a woke pile of shit.
Was it woke?
Oh, it was woke.
There's a guy looking to... Thank God that's over.
Oh, fuck. It was brutal.
Thank God that's over. Is it over? It's over.
It's definitely over. Yeah, bro.
It's going to be illegal soon. Here she comes.
New champ. I'm calling it.
What do you think? Trump's going to be being woke literally illegal. Champ for a while, too.
Did you hear what he said about Prince Harry? They were asking him if he was going to deport Prince Harry because Prince Harry talks shit about it. He goes, no.
He's having enough problems with his wife. She's terrible.
Oh, he's funny. He's so funny.
Animal. They asked him he's going to deport Prince Harry.
Say what you will. He's a funny fucking dude.
Look at the focus in this girl's eyes. She's such a beast, dude.
You just got to worry about the injuries. If that neck's going to arise.
Right. Where's she at now? Because she's falling out of two fights and she said, fuck it, it's go time.
Gave her a title shot. It's so hard to know if she can even get through a camp.
Yes. It's so going to rise.
Right. Where is she at now? Yeah.
Because she's fallen out of two fights and you have said, fuck it, it's go time.
Gave her a title shot.
Yeah.
It's so hard to know if she can even get through a camp, right?
Yes.
It's so hard to know with these people when they have like real bad injuries.
And then after the fight, they'll tell you like, my camp was a shambles.
I couldn't do anything.
Why did I bet on you?
I had a broken foot.
Well, how about like Aspinall wins the title?
He couldn't train.
He couldn't wrestle at all for like 11.
How about Francis when he gets Cyril Ghosn? That's right. No knee.
Blown out fucking knee. Blown out knee.
Tapes it up. Yep.
Takes it up and decides to take him to the ground. Takes Cyril Ghosn to the ground and wrestles him.
And just showed that he's evolving. Colby Covington broke his foot in the first round.
That was in the fight, but that's different. It was just a really bad break.
Yeah, but that's in the fight. How good did Joaquin Buckley look against Colby? Joaquin Buckley's a problem.
Is Joaquin that good? Well, he knocked out Wonderboy. He's that good.
He's fucking dangerous at 170. And he's got crazy cardio at 170.
I still want to see him and Ian Gary. Oh, yeah.
That was originally supposed to go down. And then they swapped him then they swapped out of a real good fight.
And Ian Gary is fucking amazing. Yeah, that would be a real good fight.
Dude, think about it. Ian Gary beat MVP.
MVP looked great against Sherbrooke. MVP is awesome.
Bro, MVP is the fucking man. That against Shara Bullet, that was incredible.
That was good. And at 85.
85. No, he wants to go up to 205 and fight Gary.
My thing is, do it. Make the fun fights like Cowboy Cerrone style.
Do the fun fights. Then come back.
Do 205 and then come back. You don't want to fight the big boys.
Yuri's a thin 205-er. Yeah, but Yuri's a different thing.
The style matchup though? It'd be very exciting. Here's the thing.
On the outside, no one can touch MVP. You can't close the distance like he can.
No one. He's got that elite point fighting style.
I always said that. That's going to be the next problem is point fighters.
Because they got that blitz. That ability to cover the distance.
It's so fast. They don't have knockout power.
Some of them do. Name one that does.
Wonder Boy. Wonder Boy had a point fighting style.
I mean, he basically started out in karate, you know, and then developed as a kickboxer, above the leg kickboxer. But then when he got to the elite level, he wasn't wasn't knocking guys out well he couldn't wrestle with them the problem is like matt the immortal brown was the first guy to expose his ground game remember that his nickname yeah he took him down and smashed him that was his first fight in the ufc wasn't it i don't know no the first fight was a ko he got that guy with that over the shoulder kick where you like maybe a second though yeah went down with that round it was very early very early on.
When he knocked out Jake Ellenberger with that wheel kick, Jake Ellenberger was making fun of spinning shit. Making fun of spinning things.
I hope he does. I hope he does try to hit me with a wheel kick.
And then remember Wonderboy beat Robert Whittaker at 170. Robert Whittaker was way too big for 170.
He was dying down oh it's so smooth and it's so it comes off the ground effortlessly it just sticks you in the gut like a jab his right leg forward when he throws it that way it's fucking so nasty and it's so hard to deal with because he can do all the other stuff too So it's like And he also Wonderboy was one of the best ever At leaning his head back Like a fucking snake And then firing at you As he's moving backwards See I feel like MVP doesn't have that Like he's not landing those big shots Like Wonderboy did It's hard to hit on some guys. You also got to realize UFC
No, not a land not KO and guys yet, but look what he did a cyborg is a wake-up call for everybody alive
If he served cyborg was 77 years old It was a hundred
But he caved his skull yeah, that's bad worst knockout ever
I say what's raised gnarly. Here's another guy everybody sleeps on is
Like who did like so What were his losses? Whose? MVP. He lost to Lima.
It was Douglas Lima. Lima was the KO loss.
He kicked his leg out. He lost to a wrestler.
That's right. But Lima was the first guy to stop him.
Yes. Because Lima had...
He's one of the most slept on guys at 170. He's a guy that I really wish had left Bellator in his prime.
He's with GFL.
That's good, but how old is he now?
Bellator's dead now. You haven't heard from him for a while.
What was the last time?
Contracts.
Contracts are a mess.
They just sat guys on the show?
37.
Last fight, September 7th.
There's still something in the tank there.
Oh, he was a monster in his prime.
A monster in his prime. You remember what Ben Askren did to him? Yeah.
Ben Askren just said, oh, that's cute. Molly whopped him.
You're going to enjoy wrestling now. Who did he fight? Diego Lima.
Oh, yeah. Douglas Lima.
The Douglas Lima. Diego fought in the UFC.
Yeah, right. Douglas Lima was the, it was no disrespect, but was slightly better.
Douglas was a Bellator champion. He was a beast man The problem with that Bellator title was like nobody cared.
I'm glad you're making money I'm glad you're getting paid. I'm happy for everybody.
It's like CFL world champion. Yeah, it's we got the NFL It's great.
I hope you're getting paid. That's the most important thing But after that like if you want to make the splash you want to be famous you want to have a legacy You kind of got to make it over to the UFC.
If you want to say you're getting paid. That's the most important thing.
But after that, if you want to make the splash, you want to be famous, you want to have a legacy,
you kind of got to make it over to the UFC.
If you want to say you're the best in the world.
You have to.
If you're the champion anywhere else, if you're not in the UFC, you're just not the best.
Unless you do the Francis thing.
You go over there and they give you $20 million a fight.
And it's a big fuck you to Dana because you still get to box.
Yeah, you get to box.
But he's in a unique position.
Like Francis' position is different than everybody's.
Heavyweight.
Heavyweight.
The boxers are entertainment.
Monster.
Yes.
Destroyer.
Yeah.
Thank you. Yeah, you get to box.
But he's in a unique position. Like, Francis's position is different than everybody's.
Heavyweight. Heavyweight.
Monster. Yes.
Destroyer. Yeah.
Knocks guys out with one shot. Like, he's always going to be thought of as the heavyweight champion until somebody beats him at heavyweight.
You know, what he did to Stipe, and then, you know, he beat Cyril Ghan with a blown-out knee, and then just dipped lips. See you later.
See, I think pound for pound, and we won't ever find find out I think Tom Aspinall is the best. I think Tom beats him.
John beats him. John might beat him up.
He could. John might take him down and fucking ragdoll him on the ground.
John easily could. Because we don't know how good John is either.
And we also don't know what happens to Tom Aspinall in the third, fourth, and fifth rounds. We have zero idea.
No one's even gotten there. No one's even gotten close.
There's so many question marks that we don't know how good John is. Right.
You can't tell me John's the best of all time, or he is the best GOAT, but you can't tell me he's the baddest heavyweight on the planet after being an older Steve Bay. That's not going to do it for me.
Right. Right.
Aspinall looks fucking good, and he's in his prime. Well, Cyril Ghosn almost beat Francis.
I know you can say the thing about the knee, and, you know, Jones just smoked him. We also didn't know Cyril Ghosn was a fucking three-stripe white belt.
That's news to me. Did he get that third stripe? It's MMA.
He's got to be able to. I was going to say, like the bulldog guilty.
It's like, hey, dude. I think he might have frozen.
It feels like he froze in the big lights there. I don't give a fuck.
That's the game. He probably is not used to a guy that's that good getting a hold of his neck.
I think he thought they'd be all the few. At that level? World champion? John caught him.
He caught him. I think John does that to him 100 out of 100 times.
There's not enough hours in the day for Cyril to make up for him. It was great distance management, too.
John just avoided all the big shots. The timing of the shot was perfect.
I can see John taking Aspinall down. He very well could.
You're talking about the black belt who grew up in jiu-jitsu gyms like Matt? He took Daniel Cormier down twice. Sure.
He's a two-time Olympian. It's not easy.
DC's not a black belt on the fucking ground. I wonder how he is off his back.
How his guard is. I know.
Does he have a guard? Does he have a guard? I would assume it's not bad. A lot of big guys don't have a guard.
He's been doing jiu-jitsu in his diapers, man. You're talking about their spooks on that four years old.
But, man, we've seen a lot of guys who are really good, and they're on their back, and and they got nothing. They have no answers.
I agree. But as athletic as he is and growing up in that culture, the guard's not going to be shit.
It might not be, but you know more than anybody that big guys are mostly on top when they're training. Yeah, I know.
Yeah, so that's the problem. Unless you're a guy that's smart about it, like Fabricio Verdum, who developed – I mean, that's a rare guy who's a big guy who developed a killer.
He's my top 10 of all time.
I always put in Fabricio.
You got to remember that guy tapped everybody.
Dude, top 10?
There's arguing top three?
Of all time.
Of all time.
People forget him.
They sleep on him when they talk about great fighters.
First one to tap Fedor.
First one to tap Kane.
Bigfoot Silva.
Tap Kane.
Come on, bro.
Yeah.
KO'd Mark Hunt.
Yeah. Slying knee.
Remember that? Yeah. Yeah.
Tap Kane. Yeah, KO'd Mark Hunt.
Slying knee. Remember that? Tap Kane.
He tapped everybody. Tap Noguera.
Travis Brown in his prime. Tapped everybody.
Sidekick to start it out. Fabrice Overdome was a bad man.
Bad man. She's gonna get it down.
She's gonna get it down! I'm telling you she's been drilling second round head arm choke Tatiana I'm excited to see what happens I was thinking second round Tatiana looks big she's such a problem here we go she's been wrestling since a kid yeah but she's been a bang nice she's been wrestling with some kid. Yeah, but she's been a bang.
What?
Just saying, bro.
Nice.
She's been wrestling with some Iowa wrestlers, bro.
Calm down.
Here we go.
Watch her.
Okay, watch.
Brian, who's your call?
Who's your call, Brian?
I'm going with China.
You're such a piece of shit.
Brennan Schaub, America.
Tatiana.
I'm American all day.
You piece of shit.
Tatiana.
You piece of shit.
You know what?
For funsies, I'm going with Zhang Wei Li because I'm right here with Brian. Ah, yeah, baby.
Come on. Let's see what happens.
Let's go. I'm going with champion.
I'm going with champion. Americans on this side.
I'm going with the champ. Who's the superior striker? Look at her.
Listen, man. Dangerous striker.
Weili probably have a little advantage on the feet, but a lot more championship experience. Oh, now you're coming over.
Peer pressure. A lot more championship experience, Yep.
They both have a little ring rest. They both haven't fought in a hot set.
Are you making excuses now, bro? No, I'm just saying there's ring rest. But in terms of experience, there's no comparison.
Oh, for sure. John Whaley has fought the best of the best and had fucking wars.
I mean, she's had some fucking wars. Is that Ioana Yonjicic fight? Holy shit.
Oh, my God. That was crazy.
Oh, my goodness. Look at this shit! Tatiana gets it right away.
Right away. How's that Iowa wrestling you? Right away.
I almost dropped. Oh my goodness.
I almost called you a maggot. Look how big she looks.
A maggot. Why'd you call me a maggot? You know what I mean.
She looks like a 135-er. She don't look like a strawweight.
She's got control. She looks like a bantamweight.
But Whaley's been working this position, believe me. Did the Iowa wrestlers help her off her back? Let's see if she gets her in the crucifix.
Yeah, she's just going to get... Go for that.
Oh, Jesus. Bro, this ain't good.
Brian, how you feeling? I feel like we lost. How's the communist feeling? She's turtling, guys.
She's turtling. I was just rooting for the champion.
I'm very persuasive. I'm just rooting for the champion.
I'm incredibly persuasive. Let's see if she survives.
So right now, we just got to squeeze. We got to top pressure.
We've been here before. No shots.
We trained this. Nothing landed.
We've been here. I sound like Steven Seagal.
Full guard. We've been here.
We worked this. Trying to work those butterflies.
Back to her. to her Pass that knee She's dealing with a different She passed that knee line again Different kind of pressure Matt what do we do here For who For my guy For my girl See how she's holding on With that left arm You know what I mean I don't see gender I don't see gender She's not doing a big job America She's doing a good job Look at this Over-unders That's it Way to make She's got to float her up That's not a good sign We'll get up Pass the knee line again She can't get out of this man She's dealing with a different kind of pressure Just tiring her out Look at this No No no no Just playing The person getting tired Is definitely going to be John Wood The left arm Is coming across the neck Underneath to the far.
She's got to struggle real hard just to not get smushed here on the bottom. We work those.
We work those. That's it.
Soften them up. She's controlling her by wrapping around the waist.
What are you talking about, Brian? She's getting smushed. Her chest is compressed.
She can barely breathe. No, she's okay.
She's just holding on over there. That's it.
We're comfortable down here. She's going to pass these butterfly hooks again.
Yeah, but this is a clear round for Tatiana, bro. The entire round has been on top.
And that Iowa wrestling, she took it out in 40 seconds. Yeah, but we got...
45 seconds. It wasn't even.
It was probably 30. She's going to pass that knee line again.
Look at that stuff. Look at that.
Look at that. Look stuff.
Eye control, set the submission. Isolate the arm.
She didn't even have to work for the takedown either. No.
And she could probably do that all day long. All day.
She made it look easy, man. What does she walk around at? 210.
Let's see how low pass hit. Look at this.
Look at this. Look at that.
Flow Set a port now. Look at this control, bro.
Look at the grip. It's beautiful to see.
She's keeping the right arm so she can't follow her. She's moving to north-south.
See, the problem is you've got to kill that near-side frame. That's what does everything.
Everybody thinks far underhooked. That near-side frame reclaims guard.
It offsets balance. Kill that fucking thing.
What are you talking about, Matt? The right arm. A right arm, yes.
Oh, look at this. I told you.
This is where Iowa comes in. Oh, shit.
Oh, it's tight. John Laley's on top.
She could use it to sweep her, though, here. She has the butterfly guard.
John Laley's out. She's out's out.
She's out. She's out.
On top. Oh, my goodness.
What did I tell you? What did I fucking tell you? It's four minutes. Cross the ground.
But we'll see what happens over the next minute. We've been working this.
Wild shit can happen over this next minute. Yeah, you've got a wrestler on their back.
Let's see what happens. Watch it reverse.
Also, she's stuck in this head and arm guillotine here. Look, butterfly.
She's long. She's going to sit back and sweep her.
She's fucking long. She's hard to feel it.
She's also strong. Oh, that's nice.
That was good pass. That was nice.
That was nice the way she moved around that. Oh look at this
She's looking to pass. She's going for head and arm.
Oh boy. She can't get out of that
That butterfly though that right leg is comfortable as shit nice long legs to their hard to pass
It's a pain. Yes.
I want to let's look for an elevator sweep here. Oh take the back under
Oh, she's trying to mount she's trying to mount here. Oh, she might be sensing that the other way a day She's gonna know Tatiana might be getting a little tired She's never done this before right? She's never had a world championship fight.
There's so much adrenaline here and John Whaley's on top. Yep a little discouraging Right, but she won the round so she's pretty happy, but still this is like a closer round than it should have been right? Yeah, John Whaley's on top and she's that guillotine.
At the end of the round, she's on top. The fact that she got out is huge.
Huge. Here's the thing.
We know Zhang Weili can do that for five rounds. Can Tatiana do that for five rounds? This is a championship final.
That's a question, Joe Rogan. I don't think she's going to need to.
No. I don't think she's going to need to.
That take down is too easy. She's going to finish her.
We'll see, kids.
I don't like your attitude, man.
My American attitude, you piece of shit.
And you want to move to Austin?
No, no, come on, bro.
Give me a second.
I'm just saying.
Yeah, you have to get rid of all your communist leanings that you picked up while you were on the West Coast.
Do I got to buy a truck, too?
No, you don't have to.
No, it's not for you.
You probably should.
It's not for you.
You should probably buy an F-150.
That's a show, everybody.
Carry a piece.
F-100, tall boy. Yeah, get something nice.
American. American.
Be sick. Get back into jiu-jitsu or just wrestling? Just do something.
Okay. You moving still? What are you doing? Yeah, do a little jiu-jitsu.
Yeah, are you? You rolling? Roll around. He does boxing, too.
And sometimes he forgets his name. No, I'm not boxing anymore.
He forgets his name. I got too dizzy, dude.
I was getting hit. Sparring? Yeah.
Yeah, he's boxing people. I was sparring a lot.
And when Shob goes, hey, what are you doing? 55,000 years old, getting punched in the face. A fossil.
I love it. Yeah, basically.
Setting in Alzheimer's months earlier than it has to. I can't do it.
I can't do jujitsu either because I get hurt. I fucking have trouble looking for 11 days.
You're feeble.
You should not be feeble.
I have a really good body under this.
Take my shirt off right now.
I'm wearing a leotard.
Let's see you get this takedown again.
Come on.
Just circle to the right.
Dude, there you go.
If she can't get the takedown here, man, this thing gets really interesting.
Because if she's a little tired, we're in trouble.
Her arms are way short.
It's hard to get close.
That's true.
That's true.
There's definitely a reach.
That distance is hard to touch anybody with.
Well, that's why she's throwing a lot of kicks.
She just doesn't want to get takedown again.
But she is throwing.
Oh, nice right hand.
Nice right hand.
Oh, this is the thing.
Oh, she's got an underhook.
Oh, she's strong.
Oh, the hands are together.
Oh, yeah.
Ready?
The hands are together.
Come on, Matthew.
Thank you. Oh, she's got an underhook.
Oh, she's strong. Oh, the hands are together.
Oh, yeah. Ready? The hands are together.
Come on, Matthew.
Three, two, one.
She's got those long fucking arms, man.
She's taking a breath, and we're going for a ride.
Yo, Jean-Way Lee's a little powerhouse, man.
She's a powerhouse, bro. She's pushing that head down.
She's a little fucking powerhouse. This is impressive.
Crossface. Oh, she gets it.
Oh, my goodness. Look at this.
On top again. Oh, my goodness.
This is impressive Crossface. Oh, she gets it Oh my goodness, look at this On top again Oh my goodness, this is huge This is fucking huge Use that underhook See, hopefully she didn't get spiked on her neck That's gotta be very frustrating I love the escape from here for the underhook It's one of my favorite ways out She keeps trying to mount I don to D-PF.
Yeah, it's like you're putting your legs in jeopardy when you're trying to mount all the time.
But when you put yourself in D-PF, you put them right on top of you.
That shit worked for Naguera and Pride in fucking 99.
Oh, she's almost slicing through.
She's almost slicing through.
She's almost slicing through.
Pressure.
See, this is the thing, too.
She can do this all day long.
Her gas tank is fucking limitless, man.
Dude, she's so ferocious.
She can be out right now if she just keeps going. Look at this, though, man.
Slick. Yeah.
Strong, too. Powerful.
Look at this. Oh, big elbows.
Oh, big shots. Ow, ow, ow.
Ah, the corn rolls are taking all that. Keep moving.
That's why you win. Bro.
Look at this. Look at this.
Oh, my God. It could be elbow up.
She didn't take it down. No, she don't have it.
She don't have it. She's just going to explode to defend.
I'm wondering if she's just expending a lot of energy. Elbows right here.
Elbows on the right side. Get that arm free.
Her hands are closed. She didn't take it down again, but she'll step over.
She's got to get it with the control. But this is a lot of fucking energy.
That's all the energy. Unless you're working unless you're marab and also zhong is way more like marab like that lady can go she just keeps going she's a fucking machine oh look at that knee to the body dude that's a nasty knee to the body and she's free 100 man battle tested made a different shit come on not breathing that hard she looks all right look at that at that.
Sidekick. Oh, nice right hand.
Oh, my goodness. Nice right hand.
Oh, boy. This is deep water for...
I mean, this is deep water. It's halfway through the second round.
Bro, this is a frantic pace, though. Can I remind you that she beat cancer? Can I remind you? That's right.
This girl's a warrior. I like that you whispered that, bro.
No, I'm not. I love her.
Oh, all the respect. Winging shots.
Jean-Louis is just throwing from the outside. Oh, she clipped her with a seppercut coming down.
She can't set up the takedown Tatiana. I was about to say.
God, zombies. That was straight zombie.
Well, you go to your happy place when you're kind of tired and getting rocked. Well, this is where she wants to be, for sure.
Yeah, against the cage. Sure, but she's not doing anything.
Well, she just can't. Zhang Weili's, I think, surprising her with the takedown defense and just the physicality.
She's been working her wrestling. Look at the physicality, son.
So fucking strong and fit. Look at this.
Again. Turned it around, man.
Again. This is huge.
So she's got this round. Yeah, she's winning this round.
So it's 1-1 now. Making it exciting.
It's 1-1 and if I was betting on this I would Back to China Another one for China The fact that Zhang Weili is able to keep her on her back Is very impressive Very very impressive Especially when Tatiana is so good at those butterflies And elevating people But she's been working nothing but wrestling She been working nothing but wrestling. She knew she was going to deal with this.
We all knew she was going to deal with this. Yeah, but somebody like this, her learning curve...
I bet Tatiana did not think she was going to spend a lot of time on her back. No.
I bet she did not anticipate that Zhang Weili was going to be able to do this to her. Especially in the scrambles? Because Tatiana's been dominant in the top position over everybody.
And then also a second-round grueling pace of a five-round fight, and in the second round you're getting mauled. That's not a good feeling.
She got that wrestling grit. Let's go.
America. I'm back on the team in America.
I'm back on the team in America. I wish I bet money that I'd be hoping I'd lose it.
Listen you chose Chang Weh-Li Well, I chose champion Because there's a big difference In stepping up and fighting a champion like this When you've been dominating ladies that are of a lesser caliber I mean, Chang Weh-Li's complete And now you're seeing it And also, fucking tank She's a tank of a lady Alright, we got one and one. Also, the tide.
It's all about the tide, boys. Once the tide takes you out to sea, even though if you're only 100 yards from the shore, it's going in the wrong direction.
I think it's very demoralizing when you realize what your go-to move is not working. Right.
Your wrestling is getting flipped. I'm going to repeat my friend Matt here.
She beat cancer, right? Listen, a lot of respect.
I'm just saying.
Cancer's got a good record.
You're dealing with a different breed.
She beat cancer.
You think she's worried about a Chinese girl?
Yes.
Chinese girl's beating her ass.
Oh, right hand.
Look at that.
That was a nice right hand.
She's rugged, though, but.
Look at this.
That's where it went south for us. It's so impressive.
Just the fact that she's able to do this to Tatiana She's been drilling this On the kisser son You watched one countdown video You don't even know the name of the guys What I'm saying is that She was doing a lot of wrestling I do think It's one thing you're not going to beat her in wrestling, but you can neutralize the wrestling. Hey, how about let Mike Beltran let his fucking mustache free? Oh, I know.
Let that mustache free. He's the best.
Let that mustache free. Why are you going to tuck it in your shirt? That's bullshit, UFC.
Let the mustache free. Look at her.
Look at her. Look at her.
This round's so important. You're right.
She's got a crazy gas tank, dude. This round's so important.
Fresh. Fresh.
I'm going to have to make a petition to have Mike Beltran let his mustache go free. Let him live.
I like to see that thing, that crazy mustache. It's too distracting.
Shut the fuck up. I'm just saying.
Jesus Christ. Why did they mix it? I don't know.
Oh, look at that. They don't like it.
They don't like the crazy mustache for some strange reason. I think it's awesome.
It gets in their face. Shut up.
When he's in there, he can't have... No, it doesn't.
It's hanging down. It might get grabbed.
It's like a ponytail. Boy, you know what I just realized? We never had a woman referee.
No, we have. Who? There was that one...
Bring that shit up, Jay. What's her name? Having? Yeah.
The tall blonde girl. Oh, that's right.
Way back in the day. girl She's big She's getting clocked She's getting clocked How many women I can't remember In recent times a female referee Oh my god She can't strike with her Dude that was a.
Come on, man. Oh, she's stuffing it now.
She's stuffing it now. Now she's putting it on her.
Oh, nice knee to the body by Tatiana. Come on, man.
Vision Quest. Let's go.
Look at that. Oh, this is rough.
The problem is the striking. The difference.
Big difference. She's not setting up.
She's not setting strike. And it's also the pace, man.
Zhang Weili can just maul her in these paces. It's also Tatiana, she's not putting the strike and the shots together.
She's not setting up the strikes. Kim Winslow.
Yeah, she is. Literally ruining people's lives, she said.
Whoops. Sorry, Kim.
Wanted me to bring up old wounds. Look at this.
Ow. Ow.
Finish it. Can't get her down anymore.
She does the same takedown over and over. Bro, that's so impressive.
That's so impressive what Zhang Weili has been able to do here. Just to be able to stop these takedowns and reverse them when she gets them.
So impressive. But it's like the physicality of Zhang Weili is just something to think.
Look at that one two landing nasty great athlete nasty yeah I mean just incredible conditioning yes I mean you ever watch her workout videos they're fucking mad dude her strength and conditioning is mad Brendan you want to come over to my side now look at her no he's dead strong we don't jump ship it's like going to electric cars you'll never do it Brian if she wanted to have sex sex you'd be very uncomfortable She'd kill you. Yeah, she might be my type because I'm guys guys guys.
I'm a fan of her I would beat the shit out of her. Yeah, but you're 280 pounds.
You just said I'd be scared of her not you If Brian had at all right, and she's been able to stop those takedowns and and Tatiana's hesitant to keep going for him now. Watch it.
Every time she was sidekick. She was just watching.
When she punches, her head's just off the center line every time. She's fucking crazy.
Zang has some traps, huh? She's a tank. The way Tatiana got that first takedown is what she did her whole career, and nobody ever got away.
That pace. It's also striking.
It's fucking just higher level, man. Very good.
Very good striking.
She keeps catching her.
Tatiana just keeps moving forward.
This doesn't work.
Oh!
The difference is the striking.
Oh, it's big.
Much higher level.
Tatiana keeps moving forward in just one line.
And John Way Lee has not shown any signs of deteriorating.
Not at all.
Look at that.
Just stepping back, moving, waiting.
I don't think that... Touchdowns.
She's not even throwing that left hand at all. She's at a loss.
She can't. Because she pays every time she reaches.
That's the problem right there. When she does, look.
The entry, she gets spun around. It's so bad.
It's crazy, but this is how strong John Way Lee is, man. It's impressive.
Look at that. Look at that.
Fucking impressive. Oh, look at that elbow.
Oh, look at that other elbow. Oh, my goodness.
Look at that. Oh, my goodness.
Champion. You're talking about a champion.
Yep. Damn it.
Dominant woman, man. Yes.
Dominant. Just a great fighter.
Forget it. That kick's not eight, girl.
So good. And again, it's like you got Rose, you got her, you got Ioana, you got like the elite of the elite in this division, and she's fought them all.
Her balance is perfect. Look at Tatiana.
Her head's all the way over. She's just leaning a lot of weight on her front foot.
Forget it. Oh.
That's what I'm talking about, baby. That's a good shot.
Finish that shit. Come on.
Great job ducking under. That's a good shot.
Look at that. And she doesn't get it.
Amazing. Damn, man.
Amazing. 2-1.
That was something. Boom.
Boom. Down and then boom.
Boom. Oh, my goodness.
She goes low and high. How about those elbows in tight when they were up against the cage? Those were fucking nasty.
So much higher. I want to see those.
How is she now? Elbows. Yeah.
Now she's never been facing the adversity. So now she's in the fourth and fifth.
This is the big rounds. We call this the deep waters.
The deep waters. I think that Tatiana doesn't have a game plan right now.
It's just she's expended. Well, her game plan was a mauler on the ground, and then that's not working.
And now you're forced to strike on the outside. You're fucked.
Look at her breathing, man. Look at her breathing and the body language.
She doesn't really know what to do, so she's moving forward's well there's the body tools to fix the problem that body language is not good her head's literally past her front foot then you got this chinese terror waiting over there it's a disaster this body language right here it's never a good sign when she's already off the stool jumping around like that yeah it's a nightmare this is bad body language man this is where it gets hard because you've never done this fourth and fifth.
Listen, guys, we worked on the wrestling.
How many times do I have to tell you? Yeah, but it's also the striking, the championships experience.
It's all of it.
Well, they're asking Tatiana to do a lot,
and she jumped the cue.
Oh, listen to this. He was All-American.
Isn't that amazing?
Isn't that incredible?
Fair-weather Frankie.
Thank you.
She can still do it. She can still do it.
We want to see her in the fourth round. I'm staying with Tatiana.
I'm staying with Tatiana. All right.
Let's go. I like your loyalty.
I do. I appreciate it.
Let's see what happens in the fifth round. She's going to be going, I've been thinking Tatiana all the time.
I just wanted her to win because I'm American. Look at her.
She's going in fearless now. That's exciting.
Oh, right clipped her again. She's stepping back.
Oh, Christ. When Tatiana closes the distance.
Oh, wow. She took her down.
Unbelievable. Unbelievable.
Unbelievable. What happened? America.
Yo. Someone said 3-0, Zane.
Get the fuck out of here. Dude, I want to.
No, not 3-0. I get to take a piss.
The first round for sure. Well, the first round she did get on top at the end.
Bubba, I'm just sorry. I told you.
Can I just tell you with this half-guard escape, it's killing me. I want to fucking show it to you right now.
What is it? Hers, you mean? If she uses her left leg, pulls it out, pelvis up and down, she's out. What do you mean? With her left leg, if she pulls, scrapes it out, and she brings her pelvis forward into the floor, she's out.
I'll put Brendan on me afterwards. I'll show you.
Really? Not because once you get to your side, you're out with it. Her left...
I used to use that when I was 2.30 getting out from underneath. I swear to God, Matt, if I lived near you, I would be taking classes.
If she had the underhook on the left side, right? If she has her underhook and she brings her forward, gets on her side, retract this arm, we scrape that out, pelvis forward into the floor. It comes out like butter.
You're saying her pelvis is on the floor, but then isn't she on the ground? How does she escape from that? Yeah. You've got to show it to me.
I'll show it to you. You would have to be in the half guard, but when you're in the half guard, where she has the underhook on the left-hand side, she could basically pop her left leg out, put it beside her, and lean her body left, and she would take her down.
She would... Look at this.
Head and arm. Oh, my goodness.
Oh, my goodness. Oh, that's bad.
Oh, my goodness. That's bad.
Oh, my goodness. That's bad.
From half guard. She shouldn't be able to get this.
Oh, my God.
I think she's okay until...
Well, Jean-Louis might get out of there.
She's got to get all the way over the side.
She might get all the way over.
Yeah.
If she gets over the side, it's the main problem.
But still, she's cooking her.
She's cooking her in this position.
Yep.
And she's waiting.
She's not doing good here, man.
No.
She's waiting.
This is not good.
And that left leg is basically free.
That left leg is basically free.
Right.
Look at that.
It's basically free.
What does she want to do?
Get her hips on the ground?
She wants to get to the right side, but she doesn't want to lose position while she's
doing it.
Oh, no.
Tatiana brought her back to full guard.
Nicely done.
That's over now.
Now it's gone.
But that was close.
But she probably didn't want...
Look at her fucking knee.
It's a championship experience, too.
Didn't want to gas her arms out.
Somebody cut her knee with a knife.
Look at that shit.
Oh, my God.
Look at that gash on her left knee.
Jesus Christ.
How'd that happen?
That's a good question.
Ugh.
Jesus.
That's bad. God damn.
She's just mauling her, pushing her left knee. How'd that happen? That's a good question.
Ugh. Jesus.
That's bad.
God damn.
She's just mauling her, pushing her face down.
Ugh.
Nasty elbows to the body.
Oh, she's so physical, man.
The thing about Zhang Weili is like her training is, I mean, it rivals everybody's.
It's like her strength and conditioning training is fucking amazing.
Yeah, it's ridiculous. If you want to get fired up for a workout, watch her strength and conditioning training.
She's ferocious, man. And again, it's that championship level experience.
She's been in all these trench wars. Are you guys still hanging off Zane's tits? Yeah.
Bro, we're ready to buy Chinese electric cars. We're ordering Chinese electric cars.
That's right. Damn right we are.
I hear they're good. We're trying to get one of them banned Chinese Android phones to hook it up to T-Mobile.
They have a lot of spyware and they take her by a metro. Did she take Tatiana down? Yeah, she did.
That spyware helps you because they give you recommendations for things to buy that you really want. That's right.
From Alibaba. It's killing me.
From Alibaba. Oh, Tatiana scrambled.
Oh, look at that. She capitalized on the scramble.
Look at that. So much better shape.
She can get on that half guard. A lot of it is just be in better shape, man.
Her fucking physical conditioning. It's like she can push this pace and be at 100%.
We need Tatiana to dream with Merab. She's just better.
She's just better all the way around. Yeah.
In every way. She's better.
Look at this. Side control again.
You're dealing with a .01 percenter. She's a fucking animal, man.
And Tatiana getting mauled off her back was not on my... She's hanging off some Chinese tits, fellas.
God damn, it's all right. Listen, Bob, I'm sorry.
Tatiana's been fighting like two years. I'm just saying, you were all over her.
You were like, she's going to choke her out in the second round. You really were.
You really were. Me and Brian were right.
Oh, what's up? Me and Brian were right. We'd be around.
and Brian were right. Guys are so cool.
We're older. We're older.
My feeling was I thought this was going to be the toughest fight that John Weiley has. Me too.
Stylistically, but I'm so impressed. Not when I was in the house, guys.
Oh, which guys from Iowa, Brian? The brothers. Oh, those guys.
Yeah. Two brothers.
They actually weren't... You should probably find out who they are to give them credit.
They were good, but they were like top 15.
They weren't like...
They weren't like...
They were like...
They were like...
They were like a good B.
Chill.
But they had a really good wrestler.
Nasty elbow by Jean Whaley.
A lot of really good wrestlers that come there.
She fucked her up with that elbow.
You know, up until now, she probably didn't have to use a strike in too much.
I mean, that's what it must be.
Yeah.
If it's not broke, don't fix it.
She would just take him down and smoke him.
Oh, my goodness.
She's beating her up, man. You know? Jesus Christ.
It's tough. If you're in the corner there You're like I don't know man Set the shots up better Well I feel like It's 3-1 What are you going to say Set the shots up I feel like it's 3-1 It is So it's over Already over She's tough She's got to finish her Dude What the fuck How'd that happen Somebody took a What From a wolf Looks like a bite mark to me Yeah It's like a? Somebody took a bite mark.
What? From a wolf?
It's like a bite mark to me.
Yeah, it's stuck a wolf.
It's a bite mark.
It's cheating.
It's a vampire bitter.
What the fuck happened there?
That's a shark bite is what that is.
How did you not like Nosferatu?
It's really just disappointing.
It was all right.
It was slow.
He watched The Sopranos.
He was like, eh.
Bro, that vampire is the greatest vampire ever.
You got a handlebar mustache.
It was amazing.
That's what they looked like back then.
In two days.
Yeah, it was... Bro, that vampire is the greatest vampire ever.
He got a handlebar mustache. It was amazing.
That's what he looked like back then.
In two days.
Yeah, it was awesome.
It wasn't bad.
How about when he ate the kids?
That was a lot, right?
That was a lot.
That's going to make me want to see it.
That was a lot.
Yeah, it's a great endorsement. Yeah, that's a good selling point.
Isn't it great when he ate the children?
Horrible, horrible vampire. He's horrible.
But he was on top of the dude naked and it was sucking out of his chest. How about when he stands over and you see his dick? Yeah, nice.
He's scary. Fifth round, let's fucking go.
CGI, though. He was the best vampire of all time.
He sleeps naked, too, like all the other pussies. Yeah, he does sleep naked.
With their stupid fucking tuxedos on it's ridiculous and he didn't have makeup on like those other vamps yeah he was rotting too you need another lost boys that was a good fun i just watched it i just re-watched it you bring up it actually holds it holds weight in the same it still holds uh sentences nostril right hand oh she just tagged her with the right hand it it stands the test of time, man. If you guys are into vampires, you've got to watch True Blood.
Might take some heat for that, but it's a six-part series.
I fell off on that series.
I was watching it.
Did it end well?
Yeah, great.
It's a good show.
Shit, I thought it fell off.
I didn't like that Bill Olsen's a prick and he used to be good.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
She's making her pay.
Oh, my God. Even if she gets her down, it's phenomenal.
oh, she's making her pay. Oh, my God.
Even if she gets her down, it's phenomenal.
She'd have to get a finish.
It's takedown defense.
It's the same, but it's the same move.
Because it worked her whole career up until now.
It's just so impressive.
Oh, look at this, look at this, look at this.
It's so impressive that Zhang Weili can defend all this.
That takedown defense is wild.
Fucking amazing.
Oh, boy.
Look at this, still.
She's got those little tree trunks.
Still, incredible. Unbelievable.
I mean, that's so impressive. That's so impressive and then free spins out and then you gotta eat some shots Yeah, then you gotta eat some shots and now you're tired as fuck.
Oh my god. She's coming though.
She's coming right that she's Animal going forward. Oh, she's a fucking animal.
I just want to emphasize she'd be cancer Brian She did be cancer listen all Listen, all respect. God bless.
No, no. You're just dealing with a different...
You're dealing with just a better fighter. It's very hard.
No shame. That left hand, it's not even a threat, though, when she throws it.
She doesn't know what to do. She doesn't know what to do.
You're going to pay every time. Oh, she's looking for the knee.
Trying to catch her with a knee coming. Oh, right hand hurt her.
This is going to be a... Her entry's bad.
She's hurt. What do you do? She's also older.
This was her opportunity. She's going to go back down the ladder.
It's okay. The division's not deep, but at her age and the injuries...
One of the best ever. Well, there's going to be some learning on the job with the stand-up.
She's going to have to attack her. She has to have something threatening.
She has nothing. Because if something...
Look at this. Look at that.
She's even going for an arm lock. Oh, boy.
Oh, boy. Oh, boy.
Oh conditioning Push lead How dare you that's your girl Take down dude One of them is exhausted And one of them is not One of them is a fucking fitness machine One of them. Yeah, one of them is getting their ass kicked.
You know what? You know what? I'm going to say it. Zhang Weili is a better wrestler as well.
I said it. MMA wrestler? Yes.
She just is. Oh, my God.
This ain't wrestling. How many times have I got to tell you guys that? She fucking scrambles like a motherfucker.
I'll tell you that. Look at this.
Look at this. She's got her fucking bag, son.
It shouldn't break your heart. She's got her fucking bag the head god thing.
You know why it breaks our heart?
Because we're from here, Brian.
Bro, look at this.
This is amazing.
We're from here.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I apologize.
Matt, you got to teach me the... Tell me what's going on.
I'm going to show you right now on the floor.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
If you want to completely waste your time, Matt, show Brian that.
He won't remember.
I need it.
He still doesn't know how to throw a sidekick.
Why are you guys picking on me?
I'm just winning on this one. Come on.
We're winning together, bro. And I got Sean Strickland in the next one.
You got Strickland? I know, it's crazy. I like Strickland.
I love the way he fights. He's so tough to beat.
But I'm on the DDB train, too, because he's a fucking monster. I love the way Strickland fights.
I'm all over those Afri yeah me too i understand that's a smart money but strickland's strickland animal he's beautiful also he was funny as shit at the press conferences oh my god he's always so good at the press conferences great yeah he don't see what he said about palestine though man you think the uc's i came in after the recent bry recent Bryce Mitchell stuff, let's just chill out. And he's like, you got it.
He got up there. He went harder.
I didn't hear the press conference. Oh, man.
I don't like when he's mean, but I do like his fight. He's not mean.
When's he mean? I don't know. Well, he was for the Jews in that one.
Oh. Oh, man.
Zhang Wei Li by unanimous decision, ladies and gentlemen. 4-1.
Yeah, 4-1. Of course.
And super impressive. And ended up on top in the last round, too.
Still lost that round, though. Yeah, but not 10-8, you know? No, not 10-8.
But Tatiana looked like she was on her way to a mauling. All that happened was she just shudder down.
Zhang Wei Li is a fucking monster. Monster.
What a problem she is. For Tatiana, it's tough because you're 31, coming off these injuries.
You had your shot at the title. You're not even close to the— You got mauled, and you spent most of the fight on your back, which is crazy.
I wouldn't be surprised if she retires. Well, who knows? I mean, she might have had a real hard camp with all those injuries.
Oh, she's getting beat up, son. I just think striking-wise, it's very different.
This is ground and pound, son, from the top, though.
This is top control.
Like, forget about the striking, which is amazing,
but Zhang Weiwei's dominating her on the ground, man.
I mean, beating her up.
You know who looked good with the Jasmine Canadian girl?
Look at this.
Oh, she looked really good.
Four, three, two, one.
Honk.
Yeah, that was rough. Wow, that was rough.
That's tough. Yeah, she's well-huged.
Dreams are dashed. Yeah, it's over.
Let's give the girl a hug. I mean, come on now.
That's tough. It's devastating.
Yeah, but shit, man. They'll hug in a few minutes.
You know why it's devastating? Because there's nothing she can do to be there. There's not enough hours in the day.
There's no game plan. You can't catch that.
That gap. That's that's a big gap and you're 31 so who else for her who else is in zhong weili's division that's compelling there's nothing that's a problem there's good girls fighting right now it's tough jasmine jasmine our girl the canadian what about rose namajunas she's gone up to uh 135 damn has she yeah or excuse me 125 she's went up to flyweight yeah instead of straw weight she's these are they're fighting at 115 but tatiana looks way bigger than that doesn't she oh yeah she almost looks like a bantamweight yeah she definitely looks like a 125er tough tough standing up with no problem look at this oh man that was a mistake yeah but she didn't I don't have just it's a it's just so impressive the takedown defense so impressive and the ability to scramble and always wind up on top Like right here man.
That's so impressive the difference. It's a great athlete.
So just a tank man and also skills
Just it's like you gotta it's not just athleticism. It's she's doing the right thing at every step like here
She defends the trip. Bro, we were right.
We were so good. Oh, you guys are so cool.
We feel cool. We're the cool kids.
And Superman's for kids. Fuck you guys.
Super dog can go eat shit. I was on board until Super dog.
No, no, no. Listen.
Watch that. You know what? I'm giving up on you.
The dog has a cape. I'm giving up.
I'm not going to try to fuck you. Why dog have a cape? This makes no sense.
Fuck that dog. You're a dog person.
Show me what you're talking about. I love dogs, but that dog can go eat shit.
You give a fuck if I show him what I'm talking about? I hope Super Wolf eats that dog. I hope they keep that dog chained up outside.
Oh, the half guard escape? Yeah. Do it right over here.
Right here. I don't want to get no one.
No one's going to see it. Someone else is going to have to explain it.
Okay. I don't give a shit.
You want to jump on me? Oh, yeah. How are we going to see this? No one's going to see it.
No one's going to see it. Oh, it's doing it for you guys.
We can talk about it. No, no, because it's such a bitch.
We're here. I've got to take these off.
Brian, film this, and you can get Instagram followers. What's that? I can't get a camera on.
No, it's okay. Brian's going to film it.
Brian, are you filming this? If I bring my weight forward Did you see that? Yeah. No, I was getting high.
Now we both got high. Now we're gonna scramble.
Well, we're gonnaramble. Unless I want to get this three weeks.
Limp arm out with the left arm. But when I bring that leg out, put the pelvis forward, look how I could just get out of that.
Technique, my friend. Technique.
You know, but that's such a... Dude, it's such a...
It's such a technique. Now I'm even shorter with my shoes.
But even with huge guys, man, it's so fucking good to get out from. Isn't it fascinating? Just technique.
Technique and just knowing position. It makes everything so much more smooth and sweet.
Such a beautiful sport. God damn, I love it.
Oh, it's the best. Jiu-Jitsu.
It's like watching someone pull something off that's magical. It's just like, fuck, yeah.
I know, dude. I get so excited still when my guys are just pulling shit off.
Oh, yeah. Grown-ass men, I go, you know you're going to, because every time they get something, I'm like, oh, gold star! Gold star for John Perez! I'm like, you know you're going to go home and tell your wife you got a gold star.
You're a grown-ass man. And they do.
They're like, I did! I told my wife! It's exciting. I fuck around.
That's why when people don't care about belts, oh, don't care about belts. Yeah, you do.
Yeah, you do. Everyone does.
Yeah, you do. Yeah, you do.
Well, you know, it's like the time they put into it, it's like getting a nice pat on the back. Yeah.
Well, it's also, it's like there's stages that show you you're legit. Yeah.
Like Rick Caruso, the guy who was running for mayor of LA, his son reached purple belt. I said, hey.
That's a big deal. That's a big deal.
That's a big fucking deal. that's huge.
Purple belt, you're basically a black belt. You just got to keep training.
Yes. If you can get to purple belt, you can get to black belt.
You just got to stay at it and trust the process and keep training hard, and you'll get to black belt. Because how many people actually get to black? Right.
Because people get blue belt. It's like, you know, that's great.
It's a nice little motivator. But you show me you got purple belt.
That means you're tapping out legit guys. Yeah.
Then you got some moves. You probably got one nasty guillotine Oh yeah they explode They're explosive Yeah Yeah They have the skills They still have the experience I think when I move to Austin If I really apply myself By the time I'm 65 We gotta get you on the peptide son You're fucking around with nature for too long I know Nature's boring Father time's I swear to god Father Father time is undefeated, son.
He's 10-8. He's 10-8 against Brad.
I want to fuck with that stem cell. You're talking on that smorza against Father time.
Next time, we'll do another Protect Your Neck and I'll bring you in the day early and we'll get you to the stem cell place. Waste well.
No problem. You just tell me when.
I plan to go with my buddy Abe to Columbia in June. Come to Austin first because we'll get it all gratis.
You'll get it for freezies. I'll have ways to well hook you up.
And then we'll do a protection. All right.
Let me know, man. We got to do another one.
Those are fun. Those are fun.
We do John Rollo, Dean Thomas, and Matt. You know John Rollo? You might have met.
He's the best. John Rallo's the best.
He's funny, man.
I love him to death.
He's fun.
And he's an ogre.
Oh, he's a gigantic human being.
Big ass black belt.
He was well over 300 pounds at one point.
Jesus Christ.
Here it is, folks.
The fucking motherfucking main event.
Where's that lighter for my cigar?
There you go, sir. I don't's all it is he's all warmed up so be you're doing well tonight so you got i mean you took the favorite you got strickland but you got strickland yeah so you're taking the dog i just got who you got uh i'm rooting for strickland dude but ddp it's he's hard because he's gonna push the pace and it's really If I were to put money out, probably DDP, but I'm rooting for Strickland.
But DDP, it's easy. He's hard because he's going to push the pace, and it's really hard.
If I were to put money out, probably DDP, but I'm rooting for Strickland. Yeah.
The only thing about... I like the mustache.
I really do. Yeah.
I like him with the mustache. He's like old Bronson, that fucking psychotic guy from Australia.
Yes, he is. Yes, he is.
He looks like a killer. He is.
He's awesome. I think he's very focused.
I'm fucking fired up for this. His boxing's outstanding.
I'm just curious what changes Strickland can make. He has a great team.
I think the best, you know, besides Matt's team. Probably the best coaching staff they have.
Nick Sick. Who's this, you're saying? Nick Sick.
Nice, this movie looks cool. What is this? Mickey 17.
What is from Twilight. It looks like a fun Black Mirror movie.
Oh, his hand just got chopped off. He plays a guy that's made into clones, and they keep testing him out.
So they keep testing him, pushing him until he dies, and then they transfer his consciousness into a new body, and then the clones find themselves. Fuck that.
Oh, my God. The clones aren't dying.
That's like they show in the trailer. Oh my God.
That looks neat. Bro, that's a real problem with like when they can duplicate your consciousness and put it on a hard drive.
What's to stop someone like Trump from doing it a million times? I'm going to have a million to me. I'm back.
I'm back. A million Trumps.
If we get to a point where you can make a clone and we're probably already done that. China's probably already have clones.
I bet they have clones. Trump would already do it.
You can clone your dog. No, you can clone your dog, yeah.
So you could probably clone a person. Yeah, but can you get their consciousness into them? Definitely not.
Twins are different. Yeah.
Right? Twins are pretty close. That Thomas Campbell podcast was, to me, the most mind-blowing thing.
Wild stuff, right? Fuck. Wild stuff.
It's as close to unlocking the secrets of what... That might be the new evolution.
We're going to realize that there's something beyond evolution. Evolution is within a larger umbrella, which is the notion that this is a virtual reality.
This is a simulation. It's a virtual reality you're experiencing with consciousness.
Yes. And consciousness helps form it.
Yes. I was literally just experiencing virtual reality.
Literally. That's what we were saying.
I was just playing my fucking games. When I called you and I couldn't get to you when I was inviting you to dinner, I was like, you've probably got the fucking headset on.
You got a camera in there? A camera in the fucking thing? No, it's fun. Last night I sent you the picture.
Yeah, you sent me the picture. You're addicted.
What game you play again? Contractor's Showdown. Contractor's Showdown? Did you ever play Modern Warfare? Oh, yeah.
Same shit, but in VR. Oh, fucking nerdgasm.
It's so much fun. I might get addicted to that shit.
Listen, it's fun. You gotta be careful.
I play that shit in a hotel a hotel People think Sometimes I'm yelling and shit Are you playing other people? People probably think Somebody's getting murdered I'm like I'm stabbing them Are you playing a game Or other people? I'm playing a game No no I squat up There's no way you can say this Without sounding like a fucking nerd Stop it I see you getting ready No because I squat up It's groups of three Here we fucking go Contractor showor showdown. Let's go.
You're welcome, Lon. That's an M1 rifle.
Look at that. Dude, the sniping on this.
That's the lobby right there. But that's the gameplay right here.
You get out of an airplane, you fucking find weapons, and you just... All in virtual reality.
Yeah, but in virtual reality, like you're loading shit. That's fucking great.
How do you have time to do this, man? With all your jiu-jitsu. What's that? How do you have time to do this? You make the time, bro.
Dude, I don't, first of all, I don't do shit. All I do is go to my school and I do my podcast.
I'm doing my thing with Jimmy on Filter. I do my new podcast, Matt Sarachano.
You're an ugly dude. I'm so glad you finally did your own podcast.
All I do is talk about those Superman trailers and fucking all that geek shit. But I had George St.
Pierre on the other day. Nice.
Look at this fucking game. This is amazing.
Oh, this is fun, dude. You like this.
And what are you using for a gun? Well, you got the controllers. You got the controllers.
But your hands are the controllers. So you pick up a gun.
You take the thing out. So you're really doing shit with your fucking hands.
I'm surprised that'll make, like, a fake gun. This is a great game.
This is a fantastic game. This is wild.
Contract to showdown. I want to scare you.
When are you going to have, like, where it turns into a workout? Well, they have some on, they have these unidirectional treadmills. Have you ever seen those? No.
They strap you in on your chest, so you can't move and you can run in any direction left right yeah, right? My you're you're you're in like this like a halo that goes around your waist and it's connected to these cables That's attached to this like circular unidirectional treadmill and you run in any direction and you really do work out and guys are fucking screaming They're all got their head might see if you get My wife was run. That thing right there.
So that's a unidirectional treadmill. It's fucking badass.
Wow. So you get on that thing, and when you're on it, you're running around.
So watch. This guy's on it.
He's going to start moving. You start walking.
Look at that. Whoa.
Isn't that crazy? You know what my wife got me? She got me one of those vests that when you shoot it, I didn't get it. Yeah, she got me that.
I didn't get it hooked up yet. These kids now who have been playing these games with the guns, when they go to a shooting range, this SWAT guy was saying, these kids are fucking as good as anybody.
Well, there's a kid who does the simulation. They made a movie out of it.
He played Gran Turismo. Then he actually raced for Nismo.
And came in third. That's right.
That's what's going on with shooting these kids are all headshots
You know they did studies with surgeons and they found a surgeon to play video games make like 25% less errors Wow, yeah, it's 37% 37% less. Oh Jesus Christ.
That's it. That's crazy
So it's like it's real like a hand-eye coordination and feedback and motion course
And I'm in a house of women man like my wife my three daughters They're watching me some mass singer or something. I could be in the room with them I did the boxing thing that's pretty funny They're watching like fucking gone girl or something.
Oh, yeah Yeah, yeah, but uh, yeah, it's fun. It's a workout.
They'll be my son does the VR boxing and sweats his ass off. Oh, yeah, the VR boxing is great.
Because when you get hit, you see a flash of light. And eventually they'll have something where you're wearing a headset.
You'll feel a vibration in your face. You got thumped.
So they made this illegal for the MLB, but you can now have a pitcher. They'll take any pitcher, like in the major leagues, and'll throw it's a simulation you have shoes on now I think I like the treadmill better I'll fall down if I have those stupid shoes on that looks weird he walks weird too but they have with Major League Baseball pitchers they have a simulation and you can see the actual pitcher and he throws whatever he throws throws.
The ball comes at you. Who told you they made it illegal? No, they made it illegal.
They don't want anybody in the major leagues actually using it. Stop lying.
That's to sell video. No, Kevin Bay was talking about it.
The machine's like $100,000. You can't have it.
What happens? You get arrested. So we get a towel on them? It gives them too much of an advantage, apparently.
So they said you can't use it. Yeah, too much of an advantage.
We don't want you to be good. Yeah, that's what happens.
You guys don't know. Shut up.
Find that out, Jamie. It's sticking in his face.
You know it can't be true. No, it is.
Find it. Our video game's illegal in MLB.
No, no, no. You can't play.
You can't have the actual pitcher simulated. Whatever I was drinking.
Oh, thank you. Let's talk about how much better Jamie is at golf than you.
I know. How much better his drive was.
Your swing is great, dude. It was very depressing watching you try to compete with him.
Oh, you try to compete with Jamie? Try to compete with Jamie's drive. My swing was actually rather beautiful.
It wasn't that good. You got like 45 yards.
Jamie got 265. First of all, it was longer than 45, and plus I wasn't warmed up.
Off the deck, by the way. Not even with a T.
Jamie, you play real, or you just play virtual shit? No, I play real. Yeah, touch some grass, though.
He's good, man. Virtual shit is where he hones skills.
You gotta touch grass, though. He's dry.
Look at Stryk, man. I love it.
Yeah, you gotta touch grass. But he's got that smooth stroke.
He's got that man's body. Just like a fucking Charles Bronson.
I'm so pumped for this fight. This is wild, man.
I'm just curious what changes Strickland's going to make to win more rounds. Does he grapple more? Does he grapple less? Or more? Does he shoot for takedowns? He said he thinks he's going to piece him up.
That's what he said. Which means on the feet, jab, teep.
A lot of jabs and teeps. I think
you're going to see DDP wrestle
more. I think he's going to...
I think DDP is...
I think we can see some stricken because remember
this is the same coach that
with Francis had him shoot more surprise
everybody. Yeah, I think he's going to do a lot of wrestling
in this fight. That staff looks legit.
That staff on his left arm, that looks
legit. That looks like real staff to me.
Yeah, that does. That's not good.
Yeah, that looks like real staph So he's probably on antibiotics I gotta think so And if he is, that's not good for his mind Unless he said, fuck it Let's just go topical I bet And control it Yeah, he might just control it with topical Yeah, you don't want to use the antibiotics Because you can control it with topical It looks like I got dug out a little bit. It looks like a pus.
It looks like a big old giant zit. That's where they get scary, when they get big.
Because you think they're getting systemic. They're getting your bloodstream.
I got a boil or something called falunco or some shit on my fucking collarbone when I was in Brazil. Dude, that was the most disgusting shit.
First of all, the mats were disgusting. Was was they were No, it wasn't staff.
I think it's a it's a they call a boil here or something whatever it was, but just It got really big like a big zit and then Finally you like comes to a head and then at the end you pull out a little piece of phlegm It looked like a bullet wound in there. It was fucking cancer on my back.
They took out They took out a squamous cell. Oh, yeah, we did.
You outdid me there. We had to.
We had to. We couldn't let you hang on.
I beat cancer. I beat cancer.
Oh, you had a fucking little pus? I had cancer. I beat cancer.
But it kept itching. And I was like, the fuck is it? Why is it itching? And I went and they took out a piece.
She called me up and she goes, you got a little squamous cell there, man. A pussy.
It was a while ago. Dricus.
They just gave me a cream I got to put on my nose. You see this little mark here? What is it? What is it? It's like a little basil cell.
The lady said that she's giving me some chemo cream. It's a basil cell maybe.
Yeah, she goes. But I didn't want to.
They said, I'll use it. I'll start it next week.
I was supposed to start it a week ago, but, and then, because it's supposed to get, like, crusty, and it's going to go all nasty. Don't fuck around with something that doesn't, like, if it keeps bleeding, that's not a thing.
Well, she said to go back to see her after two weeks of using it. Yeah.
And she'll know if she has to cut me or anything. Yeah.
Take it out. It's from the sun.
I like the sun, man. The sun's good for you.
Dude, I was laying out today in the fucking back of my place. Yeah, it was nice out.
It is good for you. All that bullshit about the sun being bad for you is nonsense.
It's just you shouldn't get overexposure and get burned. Right.
I don't believe in sunscreen. It's supposed to build up.
Moderation. You get dark.
Yeah, I don't use sunscreen. I never have, even as a kid.
Good for you. That shit's poison.
Yeah, facts. I mean, they have some natural sunscreens, but it looks like you're wearing blackface.
Oh, no, no.
Oh, wow.
What does natural sunscreen look like?
I'll take the sunburn.
It looks like you're goth.
You're a goth kid.
Zinc cream, you know?
Yeah, that stuff's so white.
You see parents lathering their kids up with them.
Like, give them some sun.
Yeah.
Everyone's scared of sunburn.
And everyone's scared of cancer.
Depends on your skin, right?
Depends on.
What's up, Jamie?
What's this? You see this fucking mustache? I give staph. I don't fucking get staph.
Oh, okay. That was his take on it.
I give staph. I give staph.
I don't fucking get staph. That means he has staph.
You see what Strickland said at the press conference, he goes, you fight like you ride the short bus like a retard.
He does fight.
And then Drickus goes, and you look like the one driving it.
That's funny.
But the problem with that is the one driving it is a normal person.
Not a good car.
I heard that.
Not a great car.
People liked it, though.
Yeah, they're dumb.
They're dumb.
They're not thinking logically.
That didn't make sense.
I'm fucking pumped. His coach is jacked what do you think matt you know i'm going with strickland i made the this i feel like strickland's gonna win by decision but smart money's on ddb you know why because he adds in those takedowns but he takes away those takedowns and he puts a little more stank on it.
I feel, who knows how much that cut really bothered him with that eye. Because he's making, I think he's an honest guy and he's saying it fucked with him.
I'm sure it did. I have to say that Strickland stands pretty straight up.
So he does seem open for takedowns. And I'm surprised he doesn't get.
I know. He's hard to take down.
I'm surprised he doesn't get taken down. Strickland is fucking take down fucking skillful and he spars so much Now, you know, he spars more than anybody in the UFC when they put that mouthpiece in that registers how many times you get hit He gets hit less than anybody.
Yeah, he's the best striking defense ever. Yeah, ever.
That's why I love watching him He's amazing. He's gonna but deep.
He's so big. I thought he won the first fight I thought he won the first fight, but I thought it was close.
Dana thought he won the first fight, too. And, again, he might have been compromised with that eye.
He definitely was. But I think also, I think Drickus is even better.
I think Drickus just keeps getting better. He's got that belief in himself.
Oh, man. And he's huge.
When I stand next to him, I can't believe he makes 185. I mean, literally, in between fights, he looks like a heavyweight.
He's so big.
He looked like he was 240 standing next to Bisbing, and Bisbing's 220.
Well, he looked real thin at the weigh-ins yesterday, and he looks like he filled in a lot.
They interviewed him pretty much right after he got on the scales, which I always think sucks.
Give the guy a few hours.
You're not allowed to do IVs?
No, you're not.
Why? I don't know.
I think he's stupid.
Me too.
I think he's a few hours. You're not allowed to do IVs? No, you're not.
Why? I don't know. I think it's stupid.
I got an IV today. It was awesome.
I love IVs. IV vitamins and zinc.
Whenever I'm feeling kind of shitty, I get an IV, NAD, vitamins, zinc, vitamin C. Oh, it's great.
Phenomenal. What do they say? You have to shoot it first? Do you have to shoot it into your body first? No.
You don't take it supplement-wise. You shoot it? No.
You can take NMN, which helps build up it naturally. Right.
It has kind of a similar effect, but I think IV NAD is the most potent form of it. You take a lot of stuff.
That's right, bitch. There you go.
Feeling good. I like it.
Feeling good at 85 years old. Not bad, buddy.
When are you 58? August. Yeah.
Is it going to feel weird when you say you're 60? Because it felt weird when I was... 50 felt a little weird.
I don't... You're 50, buddy? I'm fucking 50, bro.
Fuck, you don't look it. Sorry, guys.
I know you're approaching the other one, but... You look good.
I'm 50. You look good.
I'm'm 57 I'll be 58. I don't think about it anymore because there's nothing I can do about it All I think about is making sure my body works great Yeah, and as long as I stay up on the peptides and the hormones and train all the time and constantly work out do a bunch of different things Cattle bells cardio cold plunge sauna every day all these different things it stays working But if you look at a 58 year old from like the 1960s They were dead.
It's a different thing like 58 different than what it was. I'm sweating.
I'm getting ready for this fight I'm fucking fired up. I get I'm sweating DDP has actually skinny legs so a lot of his weights his upper body.
I don't know if they're skinny I mean comparatively comparatively fucking a Beharo's ass he's got more ass than Beyonce man that ass is on a different level. I don't know about that.
Who? Pereira you mean? I mean Pereira. Oh yeah my god.
Unbelievable. Bro that's the scariest kickboxer that's ever fought in the sport.
Oh you fuck up one time. It just takes one no no no Pereira.
One shot. Think what he did to Strickland.
Greatest defensive fighter we've seen. Just one left hook.
Starched him. Starched him.
Tagged him a couple times to the chest. Got him reaching for it.
Came over with that left hook. Night, night.
For Izzy's legacy, it's nice he had that one time. It's nice.
And the way he did it, the way he executed it. And with the arrows at the end.
He has. That's enough just to be like, all right.
You know what? Oh, his legacies.'s a difference between MMA striking, the elite strikers, and then actual elite strikers. He's an actual elite two-division glory world champion.
Big, huge difference. But then there's that dude, Vahitov, that's now in MMA, who beat him in glory in his last fight.
Close fight, decision. Super controversial fight, yeah.
But he won, and he landed more shots than Pereira and he he's got a style that like doesn't leave any openings he's like very technical he's like a really good kickboxer I don't know what kind of a ground game if anything he has they got DDP listed at 6-1 is he he's not 6-2 he looks 6-'2 to me. Those guys like that that are Russian, those Russian dudes
they learn wrestling when they're fucking babies
anyway. I guarantee that guy
has some sort of a Sambo background.
The shape he's in. Holy shit.
He's strong as fuck.
Vahitov is interesting because I think he
just fought on Dana White's Contender
Series. They signed him? I think they
signed him. See if that
Artem Vahitov, if he fought on
Dana White's Contender Series. He's just going to have a
Thank you. He just fought on Dana White's Contender Series.
Did they sign him? I think they signed him. He's just going to have that.
See if that Artem Vahitov, if he fought on Dana White's Contender Series. He's just going to have a tough path to get to Alex.
Alex was catapulted to the front because Izzy was so dominant, so they sped him to the front. Right.
It's going to be different. No, it's different.
Also, it's different because Alex puts people into night-night land. He won by TKO.
Yeah, he won by TKO. Vahitov is fucking good, man.
Super technical. Here we go! Let's fuck.
Here we go! This is an insane way to make a living. Oh, my goodness.
I fucking love it, man. This is it.
This is it. Here we go.
Here we fucking go. All right.
Round one. Let's go.
Look at that. I'm so curious on the adjustments they make.
I think Sean fights one way, man.
He's going to just do more of it.
That's what works.
It's such a good way.
That jab is just so hard to fuck with.
Straight up.
DDP did a lot of that in that first fight, too.
That left switch kick beats up the arms a little bit.
To get me all... You know, because even if you block it like that's causing damage that sucks i mean it sucks your calf imagine what's doing your forearm i know i mean so many times guys arms go numb and you just don't know it because they're still moving around it's not like a calf where you see him limping i mean how much how much does that shit take out of your punching power?
That kick.
Yeah, he was slick with that. He landed a lot of those in the first fight.
He's a guy that for whatever reason
because the way he moves, people sleep on him.
Yeah, they don't give him the respect. It's weird.
He doesn't look like your conventional
elite. Oh, look at that.
Sneaky
question mark kick.
He keeps throwing that up to the top.
It's quick, too.
And he's got the endurance to keep throwing him.
And there's the low kick.
Sean's really good at checking his kicks, but he's not checking these.
Well, he does that same style of checking kicks that Pereira does.
Where he kind of hacky sacks.
You turn that foot all the way up towards your knee.
Love the jab, man. Yeah, knee.
I love the jab, man.
Yeah, man.
He's so smooth, man.
But DDP's doing a smart thing by attacking the legs.
Really smart.
Attacking the legs and attacking the arm with the switch kick and then threatening with the high kick.
Ouch. Ouch.
It's just an investment for later rounds.
It's such an awkward way of moving.
It's so weird.
Like Robert Whitaker and Izzy were talking about, they're like, he's the best shit fighter ever. Yeah.
But how do you say that? He's a world, how do you say he's a shit fighter? The guy's a fucking world champion. But it's just, it's awkward, but so effective.
Like when he took out Robert Whitaker in the first round, I was like, my God. He's powerful, athletic.
Oh my God. He's so strong.
He's just durable.
He's durable as fucking.
This is the old feeling out stage. But that move that he's doing.
Sean's moving him back, though.
It's interesting.
Oh, spinning back.
Well, this is where Sean fights at his best.
But DDP is, by doing those switch kicks and those low kicks, there he did the hacky sack on that one.
He's standing in your grill.
Look at Sean. Bop, bop.
That is a dangerous move. That left kick because it's sneaky.
He didn't land it to the face in the first fight but he threatened with it a bunch of times. If he can land that, that's a fucking fight changer.
Sean's so hard to hit. Yes, man.
So hard to hit clean. His instincts and his timing because he spars so much active out there man oh yeah dp's winning the round well he's certainly landing more kicks yeah right that's what matters for the judges well damage matters i mean if sean can get off a one two if he could do something significant but right now it's like just kind of touching him and ddp's not letting him set up nope he's not letting him get in a groove Sean does not kick that much, you know and when he kicks it's very linear.
He's got a really fucked up. What was it right leg? Yeah, it's quad.
Yeah, it's all fucked up really He was just riding a motorcycle on the countdown show and fell down. He's crazy.
Yeah, he fell down. He's crazy.
I Mean he's got a a giant fight coming up, and he's still riding motorcycles. He was wrestling with guys in Australia on a beach, on a bridge, throwing them into the water.
Doing backflips. He's an animal.
He's getting out-pointed right now, though, only because he's not busy enough. Yeah, DDP's winning this round.
He's definitely more active. Oh, there's that jab.
Boy, you hit DDP. He gets mad.
Yeah, he does. He goes bulldog mode on you.
He's just got to do something significant other than just touch him with the jab. Sean? Yeah.
He really doesn't do much more than that. Well, he's looking for them openings.
The low kick is so nice yeah it's the time is so nice and i think ddp just keeps getting better too that's the thing and then as a champion you know i mean i think he's got even more confidence yeah i think db he has a lot more growth and adjustments to make to beat strictly and the kicks are just a totally different element, right? I mean, it's a distance thing.
It's a power thing.
You can't fire back when they're hitting you.
You've got to really block them.
And think about it.
He hasn't even started grappling yet, so that's still in the chamber.
Sean is mostly teeps and then jab one, two.
But it's almost all straight at you.
Very few low kicks.
This took place in the center. See see it's all the teeps he's doing a good job of avoiding those big bombs though that are coming at him he's so hard to hit man he is but he's getting his legs chewed up man that was the first round for the champion you go back to the corner like bud we can't Yeah, you got to take away those lights.
You got to count it. Here's the question.
But you're not around. Is Strickland on antibiotics? I mean, that looks like a real fucking staph infection.
I know Rockhold beat wide when he was on antibiotics. You know, guys have won big fights on antibiotics.
Like the Gracie one? Yeah, but it's so hard to fight on that stuff. You're your energy is drained the worst Oh, it's hard.
I mean he's unless he's just you keeping something keeping his uh Keeping his energy energy for the later round is there is there a way to mitigate the effects of antibiotics? Have you ever heard of anything that the guys take no man? I didn't hear anything like heavy probiotics. Is there anything that you can take? I have no clue, dude.
I know Marab fought his first fight when he was getting over something.
And I still think he won and he got robbed, but
I know it hits your heart.
Either he's on it, I know he just got over it,
but I think it was the end of the game.
They said that last fight, Marab had a horrible staph infection on his shin.
Oh, yeah.
He had a back problem.
I broke my back.
He's just like, Rob won you won dude there we go ddp all right let's go let's go let's see what adjustments strickland makes i don't think he's going to make any adjustments i think he's got to be busy well he's got to make some adjustments to deal with these kicks he's gonna lose five rounds if he doesn't change right and ddp's gonna start wrestling soon, too. Because once Strickland starts committing, he's going to start shooting.
DDP is so sneaky with that high kick. That's a nasty high kick, man.
And there's a low kick again. He checked that one.
Yeah, he checked it. He's got to get through that shell, man.
Sean's got to get a little loose. He's got to do something big.
He's got to get on his. It's got to be frustrating that you can just do whatever you want to DDP and he just absorbs it.
There again, he's sneaking that kick in. He's got to get pissier.
See, Strickland's doing a great job of avoiding a lot of shots, but he's just not doing much right and DDP keeps chopping at the legs. It's not everything in a fight, but it's something you know It's like no head shots have been landed.
Yeah in this fight. It's everything.
It's all that's been landed to the body Again, he's catching his elbow. Yeah, but still that's horrible dude Yeah, it's something yeah, it's the most oh there's a right hand over the top Needs a little more of that.
Oh, dude. Some points still.
Yeah, it's something. Yeah.
It's the most.
Oh, there's a right hand over the top.
Needs a little more of that.
Oh, here we go.
DDPs and start wrestling. Yeah, I'm surprised.
Yeah.
I would imagine part of the game is wrestling.
Strickland's turning the gas.
This is what we need.
Strickland's hitting the gas now.
We need this.
He can't leave these rounds in the hands of the judges.
This is the second round already.
Oh, again.
Checked it?
I know, but it's still...
It's like he's keeping him off balance
with all that shit.
Every time he goes to set up,
which he sets up with everybody,
DDP is just constantly doing this.
Low kick with the right coming.
There it is.
It's like he's constantly got these patterns that he throws. In in that stance it's the switch switching up yeah she was coming oh there's a left hand oh he landed that left hand he's coming that cut his lip yeah it did because he's landing that in the transitions of these oh that was a nice counter nice right hand nice right hand oh yeah just oh there it is there it is there it is You got to put yourself a little in harm's way to do harm.
Yeah. Let's fucking go.
That's a fast front check kick, man. He needs to get DDP to start engaging in a boxing slugfest.
Because DDP is doing such a smart move with mixing and all these kicks, which fucks with everything. It fucks with your ability to time everything.
And you have to keep getting reset.
You get to keep reset.
And every time you do it, he hits you again with it.
Yeah, he's not letting him get comfortable.
Oh, Strickland's...
Nice shot.
Where's he bleeding from?
Where's Strickland bleeding from?
His mouth.
His mouth.
He got caught with a jab.
He's having a way better round, though.
He's also much more aggressive.
Yeah.
Much more forward.
This is it. This is it.
Yeah, sure. Let's go.
America's America. He's getting in the zone now, man.
Man, Sean can just stand right there and just. He can celebrate in the Gulf of America after this.
Oh, nice inside low kick. Those fucking kicks are a pain in the ass.
They're a pain in the ass because he's constantly resetting you. Again, he's constantly resetting.
He never gives you a chance. There again, high kick.
He's just, again, low kick. And it's a smart game plan, Matt.
Until Sean shuts it out, he's just going to keep doing it. Well, he can keep doing this.
He can keep doing this. He's banking rounds.
And it it's gonna take Shawn's legs away from him if he keeps doing it I mean Shawn is tough as he is can only take so many of those fucking kicks to the legs He checked that I know but even checking them and they fucking blow they suck His left leg is all welted up. Yeah, it's ugly man.
Gotta make it ugly. Yeah He's gonna stop laying it outside.
There's the jab right hand to the body nice Fucking nice There's another hard low kick man. These are hard kicks man They're a bitch.
It's part of you know the game that Sean just doesn't do It's interesting because he's so good, but it's like such a specific attack,
but he's so good at it.
Oh, he snuck it in again.
He touched him with that.
Grazed him.
Look at that.
I mean, he's not getting clean with that, but it counts.
That counts.
It does count.
Because Sean definitely doesn't want him kicking him in the face.
Good.
Ouch.
That's a nice right hand. That's a nice right hand.
Oh. Now they mix it up.
Let's go. Let's go.
Third, fourth is going to be interesting. Caught him there.
It is crazy when you look at Sean's style. Like, who fucking fights like this? He stands totally straight up, does mostly front kicks.
That's part of why he doesn't have as much power, though. Yes.
But it's also why he's so fucking hard to hit. Yeah, yeah.
He's great defense. Best defense in the game.
What do you think of that round? Close. He's closer.
It was closer, but he might have been more active. It seemed like he definitely landed more kicks, but Strickland landed a few good punches in that round, at least.
It was a better round for him, but now he's... Great condition.
Look at that. 28-17.
He's just more active. So Strickland's down two rounds now.
Yeah. He's got it.
I'm sure Nick Sixx letting him know. And DDP's going to keep doing it.
And once Strickland's just that, then he starts grabbing it. Nick's Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it. Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it. Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.

Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it.
Nick Six is it. Great eyes.
Like, you can just boom. Well, he spars so much, man.
And there's something to be said for that. Yep.
Something to be said for that. Because it's like the majority of his training is sparring.
I think he spars without headgear, too. Yep.
Because it's just, you know. Let's go.
Let's go. Round three.
Let's go.
Trick is just constant with these kicks.
And it's just like, it's such an obvious pattern, too.
He does it over and over again.
He's got, you see him trying to get into him now.
Sure, because you have to take some chances here.
Yeah, that was a good check check he checked with the other leg he's got to get something off and really win around
definitively and push push a harder pace because this shit like drickus could do this from the
outside and he keeps having to reset oh nice that little stutter step see that little stutter step
Thank you. shit like drickus could do this from the outside and he keeps having to reset oh nice that little stutter step see that little stutter step he's okay he reaches so weird he's in shape fucking drake is oh yeah there is fucking check that one constantly throwing she's more busy yeah it's like sean is just not getting a chance to get things off.
The time he's looking for the openings, they're just not there.
But as it gets into the pace,
I mean, Drickus is expending a lot of energy fighting like this.
And Strickland usually gets way stronger.
Oh, boy.
There it goes. I like that to the body, too.
More of that.
One, two, and the hook, man.
Yeah.
More than one punch. More than two.
More of that. More than one punch.
More than two.
Mix it up.
What a crazy style.
Both of them.
Very few round kicks.
Just teeps.
A lot of jabs.
I could see Strickland doing the bad knuckle eventually.
He could do it.
I could see him doing that.
He'd probably want to do it, too.
Connor keeps talking about doing it. That might be the next time we see him.
A good chance against Jeremy Stevens. Oh, my God.
Imagine that. Yeah.
He probably said that if they had a lot of caffeine. Do you think we'll ever see Conor in the US? Caffeine? I don't know if Conor's ever going to fight again.
He's worth so much money. I don't think so It's hard when you guys work that much money and then when he got
Saucy what's gonna be scary with him in his own life is when he's out of the limelight because I think he's a dude that likes What's gonna happen when he's an older fighter now or retired?
Officially no one's expecting him back now. What right?
Does he get crazy? Yeah.
That's why he keeps teasing the fights to stay in the news.
100%.
That was a good right hand there by Strickland.
Let's go, Sean.
It's just DDP does not give you much chance to set up, man.
It's weird shit like that.
Strickland just has to hope he kind of phases.
I feel like he just needs to just make this uglier. Like he's got to get closer to him.
It's just not his style. Oh, did he catch that? Yep.
He got him a little bit with that. That spin.
Just grazing him. He just, God, he's constantly, he never rests.
And he's another guy who relies on his fitness too because this is an exhausting style, man. Oh, wild.
When you're walking that ring and you're like, all right, five rounds, you know it's probably going five. It's all exploding and, like, closing distance.
That's a nice kick to the body. He's never stopping, man.
He just does not give Strickland a chance to reset. And Strickland's got to get something big off because this could be the round
that makes it out of reach. Strickland seems
a little bit... I want to see what
happens. If he loses this round, he's going to have to be going
for broke. Right, because
this is the round that passes him
to a point where he can't win a decision.
Strickland usually comes on heavy
in the fourth and fifth, but their last
fight, Strickland didn't do much in the fourth and fifth.
Yeah, but so does Drickus.
That's the problem.
There it is.
He's got to do something, put a stamp on this round.
Like wobble over the teams.
Yeah, he's got to put it on him.
He's got to win this round.
Oh, nice.
Nice spin.
That elbow landed flush.
I'm telling you, man, because he's unable to pressure him,
he's still looking fresh. Oh, He caught him with the right hand there.
Open it up a little now. It's just he's not getting a chance to get that offense off.
It's very impressive. He never gives him a chance to set up.
Always. I'm just surprised Duplessis isn't going for a singular dunk.
He doesn't yeah why would you you're up three rounds but yeah why would you risk it and get more tired because he can do this for five minutes oh he clipped him there there you go that was a crazy like swinging right he still has that in his back pocket it was hard low kick yikes that kick is low There you go. There you go.
There it is. There it is.
And that's the round. Oh, listen to Coach Callen.
And that's the round. Gotcha.
We worked on wrestling, guys. Pick up his feet.
He doesn't do much of the takedowns because Sean gets back, but he scores for him. He's got to give it to him.
There it is. Yeah, Sean's got to throw some shit.
He's got to really give it to him. Sean's down three rounds.
Yeah, he's down three rounds. And he knows it.
Yep. He fucking knows it.
That's rough. He seems a little lackadaisical.
I wonder if it's the antibiotics. I wonder.
Or is it DB style? It's both. It's a problem.
It might be both. Hard to deal.
Yeah, probably both. Probably combo both.
I wonder what Nick's saying to him here. We got to open up, take some chances.
He's not taking this. Sean's not taking any damage at all.
It's just he's getting his legs kicked and scoring. He's losing the fight.
He's saying you got to push. Here we see.
If I'm. Yeah.
Boom. Good right hand by Sean.
Boom.
Oh, he caught him with that.
He got him with that one.
This is his elbow.
Boom.
But he caught him with his back of his arm.
That was nice.
Instead of the flush elbow.
He's got to get fucking.
He looks a little.
He's got to get going.
He's a little tired, actually, there.
Yeah, it could be the pace, but it could be the fucking antibiotics, too. Yeah, we're not going to know if he'll land him.
Yeah. Nice kick to the body again.
Yeah, it's a pain in the ass. It's a front foot kick, though.
So it's not as powerful. Yeah, but it's landing.
It doesn't matter, Brian. He's losing rounds.
I like that. To the chinny chin chin.
I like that shit. To the chinny chin chin chin.
That was nice. Come on, Shawnee.
He's got to put it on him, though. He's got to really put it on this round.
He doesn't seem to be falling out that right hand. But it's tough to put it on him because fucking DDP is so dangerous.
Well, you don't want to get in a slugfest with DDP. You might have to.
It's like the other choice is you stay back and you lose a fourth round. Now you're down 4-0.
At a certain point, you've got to throw caution to the win, man. If you want the win, you've got to say, fuck it.
Listen, you want to hurt him, you're going to be there to get hurt. But you're going to have to take that chance.
Otherwise, it's going to go this route. Because what we're doing now is not pain every time you come close you get kicked in the stomach and fucking just You know It's just the conditioning a deal nice right hand the conditioning to fight like this Oh, he heard him.
He heard him. He heard him did hurt him and he heard They break his nose the bridge.
Yeah. Yeah, he's trying to fix it.
Yeah, Sean It looks like he's trying to straighten it out damn it yeah that's his nose is broken he smells it too he's he must have felt it too maybe when he punched him what he just did with that i don't know man but all of a sudden it's getting weird look at that nose that nose is a mess that's not good he got it's like it's painted red oh who knows what the he felt This is this is big oh my god he's leaking is a big round for the champ oh right hand another one oh man they say the damage doesn't look it's gonna be fuck jerk is just such a fucking bulldog dude rick is smelling blood now but you gotta be careful this You can't breathe. Broken nose.
Fuck this.
It's a rough fucking game.
Strickland's defense is so
fucking good. Still good.
Duplicy is just wild.
Reckless. I mean, he sees
him with his nose like this.
A little tired.
Look at this style.
But the thing is, he never stops coming at you like this. Even though he's fucking dog tired, he's so game.
Oh, man. This is a nail biter.
It's like he has these patterns that he sets up with. Oh, shit.
Man. Big breaths by DDP.
Well, Sean's nose is destroyed. Yeah.
If he touches him there one more time. Fuck that.
It's fucked. Oh, nice right hand by Sean.
Yeah, Sean, since he busted his nose, is doing way better. He kind of said, fuck it.
Now he's sitting more in the pocket. Oh, he tagged him again.
He's got to realize he's in trouble. I mean, he's down.
This is like four rounds. Yep.
More significant damage done, too. Man.
It's like that Rory McDonald nose that time. Oh, I couldn't see.
Oh, the Rory went with his face.
That's what he said.
The face was pale.
With Robbie Lola.
He was never really the same after that.
No.
Oh, right hand.
Right hand by Trickus.
That was a big one.
Can't breathe.
Fuck this.
Yeah, shit. You must be like, just fuck.
These aren't. Fuck this.
Yeah, shit.
Ugh.
You must be like, just fuck.
These aren't cardio.
Fuck this night.
Right hand.
He's just got a fucking head.
It doesn't feel like fight ending punches.
Woo, Drake is just so wild.
Look at this.
Just exploding, man.
The guy's got such fucking cardio for a guy who explodes like this.
It's so impressive that he can hold up this pace deep into the fourth.
Because he always looks like he's in the brink of slowing down.
And it never happens.
Oh, my goodness.
Jesus Christ.
Man, dude.
40 more seconds of this. Oh, right hand.
He's rolling with it, my goodness. Jesus Christ.
Man, dude. 40 more seconds of this.
Oh, right hand.
He's rolling with it, but still.
God, Drickus is just swinging for the fences with every punch.
I feel like ever since Drickus hurt his nose, he's getting a little sloppy.
He's trying to zero in.
Wow, he just can't get hit there again, you know?
I mean, it's destroyed.
And he really hasn't been able to hurt him.
He hasn't done one thing that really
rocked him. There's nothing significant by
Strickland.
Like, you have to...
Even if he does the fucking windmill
in the next round, he's got to do something, man. He's got to do something man.
He's got to throw some shit stop him. He's down four rounds
He's got to stop four rounds. Look at his nose.
Oh my god. Look at his nose, dude.
It's shattered
That's what he tried to do. You storm trying to push it back into place.
Oh my god. It's shattered.
That's that's rough, man
Fuck dude Dude Boom Jesus Christ Oh look at that Boom Oh my goodness It's crazy that he had to touch it That's crazy I think he said he reset it Yeah, my goodness. It's crazy that he had to touch it.
That's crazy. I think he said he reset it.
Yeah, he goes, I said it. I said it.
Yeah, but that's how crazy that punch was. Gotta take chances.
It's fucking hell. Push that.
Push that. All or nothing.
Go out on your shield. That's the only thing you can tell.
Listen, I know he's a 220-pound South African, world-class fighter.
Take chances.
Get crazy.
Yeah, get crazy.
Good luck.
Oh, hey, before you go out there, you've got a broken nose.
Have fun.
He reset it.
He's probably had his nose broken in many fights.
Oh, yeah.
He keeps touching it, though, which is not good.
It might be, like, moving around.
He might feel the bones moving around.
Oh, man.
I'm DDP.
I'm shooting some takedowns here.
Thank you. it might be like moving around.
He might feel the bones moving around. Oh, man.
I'm DDP.
I'm shooting some takedowns here.
That's exhausting, too, and he can't hold them down.
Yeah, true.
He might say, fuck it.
This is working.
Sean's got to really hit the gas.
He's got to really hit the gas.
He's got to let everything out of here.
Yeah, he's got to push it.
Throw, even if they're wide punches, just throw.
But he's so responsible defensively, it's hard for him to just enter when he knows he's open. I know the fan base is going to hate on DDP because they're going to say it's not exciting.
Dude, he's dominated. Oh, this is exciting as fuck, man.
It's been a one-side show. This is exciting as fuck.
The fans that don't like this are not fans. They're just people who want blood.
Attack. Yeah, it's a good fight, man.
It's like his strategy. He's so smart.
He chops at the legs constantly. He constantly does that switch kick to the body and then to the head.
He's landed the bigger shots for sure. There's another one.
Bigger shots. Pressing the action.
Yeah, and he's not letting Sean set up. Sean always wants to move forward and set up, and he's just constantly chopping at the leg.
Do we know if Hamzat's cage side? I'm sure he'd jump in the ring because that's next for sure. Yeah, that's next.
Yeah, that's next. It's another spin.
Two spins in a row. I'm really excited about that.
Oh, the Hamzat. That'd be wild, man.
He's not changing the way he fucking fights. No.
And, I mean, can Dricka stop that takedown? Can Hamzat fuck around in the third, fourth, fifth round? Right. Because this guy can.
It's so compelling. This guy's so fucking game.
I mean, he's always there in the fight. I was impressed with Whitaker keeping his calm until he got his face crushed.
I'm like, look, he's keeping his he has whole teeth broken yeah it's rough man apparently he had a weak jaw anyway like that area he broke it a few times I guess no I thought it was an injury oh really yeah he was born yeah he's more something with his bottom teeth so he's had a few of them replaced before hopefully they did a good job this time in the grill now screwed new grill now. Screwed him in deep.
All right, Sean does not have much here.
He's not showing anything that can end the fight.
I mean, he's really got to open up, but he doesn't want to get KO'd.
He's tough with that broken nose.
Yeah.
I mean, this is how he fights, right?
He fights responsible.
He's not going to go reckless.
He's not a guy who's going to go off.
No, it's just not in his...
No, his whole DNA.
Oh, he tried for a guillotine.
Imagine he got a fucking yellow DNA. That'd be hilarious.
That'd be good. It's just not in his...
No, his whole DNA. Oh, he tried for a guillotine.
Imagine he got a fucking yellow DNA. That'd be hilarious.
That'd be good. It's just not in his DNA.
Sean's got an underrated ground game. Is he a black...
I don't think he's a black belt. He's a black belt.
Yes, yes he is. From who? I don't know.
Man, it's just... This is the way it's going to go, though.
Yeah. You know, you got to to realize you're not Also, it's like this is the last round 215 to go and this has been most of the fight like this That's it.
Just make a decision just throw Yeah, and you can't wait because you want to try to take this guy out Like you gotta get this go, but the thing is like he just hit him again on that nose No, and he's feeling it man. Yeah's gotta suck oh it sucks look you hit it again it's fucking pouring blood and now he's only breathing out of his mouth so he's got his mouth open it affects your cardio like a motherfucker oh took that kick to the body that was a hard kick dreckus is just on him man man.
Yeah. Well.
And up. Crazy fight.
Yep. Kick to the body again.
And then as soon as Strom wants to get something going, out of range, reset. Now it's like you're already like fucked up, so you might as well just fucking just throw yeah
yeah but it's like it's so hard for him to just open up and put himself in danger it's not in
his nature and he's got a fucked up nose yeah listen it's always easier when i sit and i get
it but no it's way easier when you're fighting yeah you're wrong oh you got a minute left though
to make something happen you know or else yeah like if this all fucked up. Like, if this was flipped and you tell DDP, hey, you got to get him out of there, he's coming out like a fucking South African great white, you know? Yeah.
Because that's in his nature. You got to throw caution to the wind now, man, to catch your nature or not.
40 seconds. Oh, another kick to the body.
Did he just outclass Strickland? I mean, Strickland needs something real big. 30 seconds to go.
Dude, this fight's over unless Francis... Oh, right hand.
Nice. Unless he tags in Francis and God.
Oh, jab. 10 seconds left.
Even then. Oh, no.
Francis. I would have loved to have seen Alex at middleweight against DDP.
That would have been very interesting. So he's going to fight Homs at, then you get Alex at 205.
That's the fight. And then DDP's not become a superstar off this fight, but he beats Homs at.
Now we're cooking with gas. That was an ass-whooping.
A technical ass-whooping. I wonder if there's more to it I wonder if there was something up with him It didn't look like the normal Strickland right? Yeah but DDP fought real well man Yeah I'm not taking it away from you Strickland didn't have that gas he usually has Well he might have had staff He might have had staff We never know You wrong with that one.
I was wrong with that one. Rough night for Americans.
Smart money was on DDP, but I have to go with Sean. Is it Comzat versus Drakus next? Yeah.
Because even in the press conference, DDP goes, I wish I was fighting Hamzat this weekend, but this will do. Did we ever see him fight a really good grappler? Comzat? No, not Kamzat.
Oh, no.
No, we haven't seen DDP fight
anybody that level.
But Hamzat's the highest level in the sport.
But even wrestlers, I don't remember
seeing him. Who's he fought that's really looking to put him
down? We've never seen him off his back.
Boom.
It was that big right hand
that changed everything. There's a nice elbow, a spinning elbow this one right here, boom that was the game changer look at his eyes that changed the whole fight it was never the same that's fucking rough man such a smart strategy Matt there's that high kick to the face but he's still very good at He gave him a lot to look at there.
What are you saying? He didn't take as much damage. Look at his fucking face.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You mean Sean didn't take as much damage? No, he took damage.
He got hit more in this fight than I think any fight. Right, any fight.
Other than Pereira. He's still able to kind of like.
It was one big push that fucked things up. He got beat up.
He got beat up.
One good shot to his face.
It's fucked up.
I'll tell you,
Drake looks great.
What kind of...
That's an operation, right?
He's got to now
get it all fucking set.
Yeah, clear.
You know, it was a decision.
So they probably gave
Strickland a fourth round. Yeah, clear.
You didn't have a decision. So they probably gave Strickland the fourth round.
Yeah. Yep.
Trick is two pussy, ladies and gentlemen. He's a problem.
He's a tough puzzle to figure out. He's a tough puzzle.
He's a tough puzzle to figure out. Very tough fight to figure out.
Big fucker for 185, too. That's a big fucker.
I want to see that fight, though.
Man, he did a fucking great job of setting up, throwing that low kick, switch kick to the body,
kept that shit up
I'm gonna hear what he says Nice guy.
He's a class act.
Class act. for you to win the fight.
You said you would not force a takedown. You got won this fight.
You won this fight striking. Did you know that you'd be able to do that, being that Sean Strickland is such a talented striker? Yeah, that was my game plan.
I said, when he made the fact about that striking, I knew that there's a chance he's going to try and wrestle me, but obviously the man doesn't defend or over it. He wants to stay in the bank and I was willing to give that I tried to force him to make it a wrestling fight and then I can engage I got that taked a night-night when you get touched game.
Yeah, it's a very different game We'll see you as you as a fucking wrestling man Probably get tased Coach tases them They tase them They tase them and when they do something wrong They tase them and try when they do something wrong. They tase them.
Oh, yeah
His coach has one of those fucking police things. Yeah, you get arrested in America.
Yeah, it sucks
Just said I'll probably get tased
That fight wasn't close fellas. Nope, he keeps getting better
He's got his endurance.
He can't even stop talking.
I want to hear what Sean has to say.
Me too.
I hope he doesn't bring up the staff.
You can't, right?
You got to talk about that tomorrow.
Too soon.
I hate when fighters do that.
That's when they say too soon.
Yeah, talk about that tomorrow.
Maybe DC asks him. I would definitely ask him.
Was's when they say too soon. Yeah, talk about that tomorrow.
Maybe DC asks him.
I would definitely ask him.
Was that staff?
Were you on antibiotics?
That would have been probably my first questions.
If you ask it, it's fine.
I would have said, was there anything surprising about this fight?
I don't deal with staff, but that's not the reason I lost.
All credit to DDP.
Right.
Let the fans talk.
But is that staff.
I was surprised about Dracus
in this rematch
that you didn't experience
in fight number one.
I'll make this quick.
Let me take this for a sec.
Hey,
I fucking love you guys, man.
I broke,
when that fucker
broke my nose.
I was like,
oh, that doesn't
fucking feel right.
Popped it back in place. I kept buying it for you.
The Dutchman is a bad motherfucker. Alright.
me and I would break my nose for you fuckers any day of the week. All right.
Well, it's a good night, fellas. Good night.
It's a good night. I had a good time.
Well, let's start. Are you going to teaching a jiu-jitsu class now or are we going to wait a little bit? I do have maps.
I need to stretch a little bit. Oh, Brian.
All right. Oh, man.
Good times. That was fun.
Good times. Thanks for having me.
Do you feel a little down? A little down when Sean got beat up? Everybody here was kind of rooting for him. I thought it'd be more competitive.
Very impressive. He's not going to beat that guy.
Jimmy Norton beat me in the picks, a little fucker. Did he? I think he picked both Drake and...
But now it's crazy. It's like I thought Robert Whittaker was going to give him problems with that style.
I really did. I thought Robert Whittaker with his leaping in style and he's like very light on his feet, fast as shit.
I thought he was going to give him problems and DDP shut that shit down and then caught him with that right hook. See, I would give DDP the advantage over Hamza right now.
It's hard to say because we don't know what happened to Hamza. There's so many question marks.
We don't know. Hamza just shoots from like 15 feet away and gets a hold of your leg so quick.
He didn't do that to Kamaru Usman. He didn't do it to Gilbert Burns.
We go in the third, fourth, and fifth. He gave Usman for the first three rounds a nightmare.
He was taking him down. But he couldn't finish him.
That's an older Usman. That's not a vintage Usman.
Who was in their prime DDP? He was taking them down decisively. Who was Hamzat supposed to fight? That was a last-minute replacement was Usman.
Who was Hamzat? And then they put in Kevin Holland. That would have been horrible.
That would have been bad. UFC was like, we're getting backlash.
We're getting some backlash here. Kevin, you down? He's like, I guess.
i guess that would have been crazy styles make fights and you've never seen drake's fight of a good wrestler and comes out's one of the best and you gotta think his endurance is probably going to be better at 85 than it was at 70 because of the cut yeah for hamzat it's like 85 is really where he should have been all along but again he gassed out against usman up to 85. Usman's a world champion.
You know, in the third round, Usman did what a world champion does. He rallied.
And then Usman's fucking dangerous. You know what else? He's still landing some good shots.
And he's bigger. You look at Gilbert, too.
Gilbert weathered the storm, and then he gave him hell off. Dana White confirms Hamza Chemaia was next.
That's fun. Before the fight, though.
I wonder where that is. That's got to be Vegas, right? Hamza? No, that's going to be in Saudi Arabia.
You think so? I think he's got a UAE passport now. Oh, maybe in there, Trump.
Yeah, I think he gets to America now. I mean, it's not like share a bullet.
Probably never going to fight in America. You can't let a one-eyed fighter.
Apparently the UAE is having a problem with it, too. What do you mean? United Arab Emirates? When he fights in Abu Dhabi, they're like, yeah, you only got one eye.
It's kind of crazy. But they still let him do it.
They let him do it in Saudi Arabia. He's the captain now.
I'm very curious about that. What a puzzle MVP is.
What a puzzle. Shahab Boyd just couldn't do nothing to him.
But even on the feet, Ian Gary was getting lit up too. Yeah, Ian Gary had to wrestle.
He just had to wrestle. Ian Gary impressed me even with his loss with...
Shavkat. Oh, yeah.
He was the closest to ending it. Great fight.
And he's well-rounded. Great fight.
Oh, Ian Gary would be a champion. Oh, yeah.
He was the closest to ending it. Great.
And he's well rounded. Great fight.
Oh, he can get to be a champion. Oh, yeah.
And you need a fight like that. Super close fight.
I mean, you know the biggest disappointment this year? The arm on Saruqi and pulling out the day of the fight. What the fuck happened there? Back seized up.
Weight cut. I mean, you gotta think.
I think weight cut. How much is that guy cutting? To get to 55? And how juicy.
I'm saying he's on PDs. What do you think? I'm saying juicy, like how much muscle he puts on.
A lot. And then he cut all that weight.
He's 5'7", right? He's really short. He's probably 5'8", and he probably walks around 190.
Jacked. I mean, he's thick.
You see him off-season, he's fucking thick. And you're not getting that fight.
Dino's like, he's back in the line now. There's no way that's a back issue.
You think it's a weight issue? Yeah. I think he said something is a way of doing it.
Number one lightweight arm on secret. And Michael Chandler are negotiators for a fight in Miami.
Oh, shit. It's a tough fight for Chandler.
He resumed training. He's nearly 100% after a back injury.
Forced him out of the fight. I think it's just the weight.
I think you cut that much weight, your muscles just cramp the fuck up and he couldn't move that's what was happening to be remember he missed a lot me Tony Ferguson kept getting fucked up with his kidneys and all the weight cut just think about how much weight that is that you're draining out of your body like sorokan is probably getting at least 25 jugs of water out of his body 25 one pound jugs of water he's not a big guy yeah think about like a 16 ounce like a pepsi he's getting 25 of those out of his muscles that's crazy i think he's got to be 180 he looks big man he's so and do you see how fucking mobile that guy is when he's doing all his different like uh mobility exercises he's so flexible crazy back shit i don't think so i think it's all the way i think it's a weight cut issue yeah 155 was hard for me to get to too isn't it the worst part of the sport is the the weight cut that they do that 24 hours before a cage fight it's so crazy oh shit man well now this guy's fucking at 170 that are 6'5". I would have been really up to date.
They would have been holding my head. Who's that guy that Joaquin Buckley beat? He had to take him down.
He was beating him up on top. A big, fucking tall dude who was a dangerous fight for Joaquin at 170.
He's got big for 170, like real tall. Super tall.
It looked awkward. Yeah, tall and long.
I didn't know they had a mouthpiece. That guy.
Rizboev. Oh, yeah, that's right.
That guy's good, dude. I'm telling you, Buckley at 6'5".
6'5", 170. No, I had to belt would that look like? Buckley's probably 5'10".
That's crazy.
Isn't that crazy?
6'5".
6'5".
What are you doing?
Good 85.
You're flipping around.
It's my height.
I've got a big head.
Buckley did a fucking amazing job in that fight.
How did he lose that fight?
Was it a decision?
Or did he...
Do you know why?
Yeah.
Decision unanimous.
Do you ever find out why Zabit just stopped fighting?
He was so good.
Yeah, I don't know, man.
He was so good.
God, he was good.
He looked like a world champion.
But he became a doctor or something, right?
Maybe he decided, fuck it.
I'm going to go through some real doctor. Did he fight at 45? He was like 6 2 or something? Yeah Yeah, he was tall as fuck Henry says.
Mark Henry said he's the best fighter he's ever seen. Yeah, he said he's 100% world champion.
He was like, wow. He's a fuck out of the gym.
He had a good sparring with fucking Aljo at Longo. Really? Yeah.
And he throws wild shit, man. He was, that guy was good.
He had it all. Wrestling, striking, everything, man.
Yeah. Everything.
Super technical. Zabit oh dr.
Zabit maybe he decided this is not for me fuck it you know he's probably a smart guy yeah he's gonna be a doctor other options yeah I mean how's it end also if you're a doctor you really know what's going on with your brain correct and you keep sparring I kept thinking about that the more we learned I keep looking at that shit and the more we learn I'm just like five years from now when you have some kind of an AI mouthpiece and
they're just able to fucking correlate how much damage when is the comeback
is a be oh no he just stays in shape really are you sure yeah break silence
with an impressive training let's see what his training clip looks like. Let's see.
Oh. Throwing a lot of kicks.
It could just be just being in shape, man. Yeah, probably.
Who knows? I don't know. Maybe he's fucking.
It looks like he's fucking training again. Yeah, he does.
Look at it. Man, I hope he comes back.
Dude. He's awesome.
He was wild to watch. Yep.
He was wild. did he ever lose? not in the UFC I don't know if he had any defeats in his career amazing did Zabid have any defeats in his career look at Dean Thomas with the plaid shirt on dude every time you look you see Dean Thomas everywhere he's great he's got the sharpest clothes when he's at the UFC.
Sometimes he has to comment on his clothes. He loves to be busy, that guy.
What, it's a beat? Early in his career, not in the UFC. Oh, early in his career.
But he kind of went out on top. Yeah.
I mean, who knows? He might not have stopped. Yeah.
It was him and Tatiana Suarez. It was supposed to be the one-off.
2019 was his last fight.'s crazy that's six years ago long time ago that's six fucking years he's not coming back if he did it wouldn't be good yeah at what point in time do you say connor's never coming back is it now right now yeah you see him like dude he's got more money than god he loves the attention so i mean but are you going to go through a camp and go fight in the fucking cage just for attention? Also, what's going on with that left leg? Oh, shit. I mean, Chris fought again.
He did. Yeah.
He did. I mean...
Late in his career. Too late in his career.
I don't think anybody's ever come back from that injury. He looks healthy, though.
I mean, he looks healthy. He just looks like he's out of his fucking mind.
I'm just saying, that injury is really... It's the worst.
I don't know if anybody's ever come back and been the same, though. I think Conor would fight if he wasn't getting the attention from BKFC and doing all that wild shit.
I think there's a PFL heavyweight that snapped his shin and came back and fought well. But he did it when he was younger.
Yeah. I seen that before it was in MMA.
I seen it in kickboxing. It always just made me like...
You ever see Gokhan Saki and Tyrone Spong? That one? I'm going to say yes because you want to show it. No, no, no.
Tyrone Spong just hit him right below the knee and it just snapped like a twig. Just like Chris.
Just like Anderson. I remember Longo telling me he goes me goes Oh look at Sean's nose.
Oh my goodness Longo was telling me that he was Chris was killing the pads that day in the back before they went out He's like he was legs. He's a hard kick Chris.
Yeah Well the sound My friend was it fucking LAX and a woman with her husband stepped off, and a fucking giant, my fucking truck, one of those black Uber eggs, Escalade, ran over her foot, right? Now watch, she was a little heavy, so it hit her, and she went like that, and it got her foot. So my buddy, strong guy, picked her up, and he goes, Brian, I go, and he goes, her foot came off.
I go, what? He goes, her foot came off. I go, what are you talking about? So she fainted in his arms.
And her foot was there. So he picked her fucking foot up.
Oh, my God. It ripped off? Oh, my God.
He put it in her lap. And he goes, you're going to be OK.
You're going to be talking to her the whole time. The guy turned out to be really wealthy.
And my friend thought, they took him to the hospital and all that. And I guess they her foot apparently they sewed it back on i guess oh my god because he kept in touch with him and he said her foot they i guess they can't be normal what about the nerves lorana bobby she didn't use her foot a lot what about that with that that guy started doing porn i Frankie Weenie or something, right? But that is the fucking craziest thing.
Imagine that. Usually the skin would be hanging off because her foot was off.
She had a long dress on, I guess. She was a big girl? Yeah, big girl.
She had cankles? Big girl, yeah. But her foot fucking came off.
Oh my God. It was on the grass.
Hold on. Is Dean Thomas wearing makeup? No.
They just had a close-up on him. They put a little bit on you.
Look at Gilbert. Yeah, he looks like he's wearing too.
Yeah, it is Gilbert. They always force you to wear that makeup.
I don't wear shit. They always try to get me with the power.
They don't want you to be oily, that's why. So what? I don't know.
To me, it was always so offensive to wear makeup while dude's whole faces are hanging off. Yeah, that's why.
You know? Imagine if you're stepping in there and Irene Aldana, remember that fight? Went in the sphere where it was like a hatchet wound. Imagine if I had makeup on and I was interviewing her.
You want to even touch me up? That was the craziest thing. She looked, I've never seen a head like that.
Irene Aldana? No, you're thinking of you want to. Oh, yeah.
That was crazy. I felt bad.
She was trying to cover it with a towel and stuff. She was like, no, you look fine.
She's such a great time. Oh, shit.
In her prime, she was a monster. Oh, my God.
She was a monster. That fucking division, man.
That 115-pound women's division. Woo, there's some banger fights in that division.
Unbelievable. Maybe the best division in the sport for women.
Yeah. In terms of wild fights.
100%. Not a lot.
Not a lot. Not much competes with that.
What made you bring up Fiona Davis, by the way? You just watched that the other day? Yeah. Well, my friend Jake was talking to me about it and then I watched it.
He said, dude, she just ran over Mackenzie Dernam. I was like, really? I'm like, that's impressive.
And then I watched it last night on YouTube. Jiu-jitsu's good.
I had it down. She did a seminar at my place, too.
How about that hip toss, too? Oh, it was beautiful. Oh, my God.
She has a judo background, right? That's what it is. She has a judo background, too.
But, yeah. And she's, you know, I think Mackenzie's so good in jiu-jitsu that she thinks she could, not thinks, but she's good at squirming at us off and everything.
But, ooh. She had that fucking, she locked her up tight.
And that top pressure was nasty. Ooh.
So technical. So good.
She's got very good jiu-jitsu, that girl. It's like jiu-jitsu as just a sport.
You look at the highest of highest level guys right now. It's so exciting.
And now that CGI, like Craig Jones Invitational, is giving out a million bucks. The Frutolum twins are unbelievable.
Yeah. Oh, my God.
They're so good. Fuck.
That's one thing I really like about 1FC. You know, they had all those just straight up grappling matches Like Mikey, remember Mikey, Mikey, he tapped that dude's rip that dude's knee apart.
He wouldn't tap Remember that dude, he just kept ripping it apart and you know his knees gone It's gone and he won't tap and it's just rip crack pop and Mikey was like it was disgusting Like why'd you make me do that to you? Now like you signed with the UFC right yep not for fighting for no for just for fight pass those fight pass invitationals which is great that they're doing that it's great his guard is the craziest thing I've ever seen in my life Mikey's good I've never seen it so funny there's so many tournaments now more than ever but I still enjoy watching it used in MMA more than anything. Jiu-Jitsu.
Oh, fuck yeah. That's what I love.
Yeah. I mean, Damian Maier versus Ben Ashkorn fight.
Oh, my God. Jake Shields versus Damian Maier.
You know one of the biggest travesties of all time? What's that? When they took Damian Maier off of Kamala Usman's back. Oh, 100%.
100%. Oh, all that arm was just stopping him from taking a full...
And he can't hold that forever.
He can't hold that forever.
They separated that.
Oh, I mean, think about that.
It was infuriating.
He could have been a champion.
He had Kamaru Usman.
He had that left hook over the top early on the fight, dry.
And he's basically taking his back.
And Kamaru's in deep water.
And Kamaru's only loss up until that point was his first fight, rear naked choke it's Damian Maya. Yeah, who's like one of the greatest stranglers of all time He was one of the greatest stranglers of all time.
I mean just phenomenal Jiu-Jitsu His fight for Ben Askren was fun because it was both it was almost like a throwback where one guy's using Because standing up, they both kind of nullified. They both didn't do too much.
But one guy's using Ashik Rami sweeps, Uma Plata reversals, pure jiu-jitsu. And then you got Ben Askren doing the big takedowns.
So it was just such a style versus style type fight, you know? Great fight. It gives you an appreciation for how good Gordon Ryan is.
All these amazing guys. So what are the big fights that are coming up next? What do we got? Alex.
So we don't know what's going to happen at Lightweight now. I hope, as crazy as it sounds, I hope Ilya goes up to 55.
I really do. Volkanovsky, Diego Lopez, 45.
I'll take that. Ilya up to 55 fuck.
I don't care if he only defended title one time or didn't agree who cares You want you to fight mock Jeff? Let's go Let's fucking go face a couple of those guys first like you just said yeah be nice, but also who cares? Let's go That's if you want to make the big fight for July you want to make that fight in July, is it the Volkanovski rematch? I don't know. I think Volkanovski's, people want to probably see him win one.
Or he gets KO'd by Islam in the first fight. He gets KO'd by Islam in the second fight.
Yeah, I don't see him fight to appear. You want to see him fight.
Well, he gets beaten by Islam in the first fight. He gets KO'd in the second fight, and then he gets KO'd by Ilya.
So two KO losses in a row in one decision, kind of, even though he's a legend, you kind of want to see him beat a contender. Maybe.
And Diego Lopez needs one more win. I mean, I wouldn't hate a rematch.
No, I'll take it. I wouldn't hate a rematch.
It's not, it's like must-see TV. No one's asking for it.
It's one of those ones where I hope Alex is 100% and I want to see it. He should be.
He shouldn't have fought him that quickly after getting KO'd by Islam. Terrible idea.
Three months, four months later. Took a shot.
And so he took a shot. So if you want to do a big July card, you could do that.
Mokachev. Hamzat versus Dreykus.
Hamzat, DDP, Jon Jones, and Aspinall.
That would be the greatest card of all time.
That would be so sick.
That would be the greatest card of all time.
Fuck.
Can you imagine?
Dreykus.
Two guys go up.
Dreykus goes up.
Ilya goes up.
Dreykus versus.
But then again, look.
Ankel Lio is tough, man.
Tough as hell.
That ain't a givey.
That ain't a givey.
That's a tough fight.
Super tough.
I mean, Ankel Lio's wrestling is going to be a problem for Alex.
But he's not really a wrestler. He's not really a wrestler.
He's more of a wrestler. He's more of a striker.
He said he's going to knock him out standing. That's what he says.
Until he feels that fucking... Oh, look at that.
1-10, 1-10. Even fight.
Dan Hooker, Justin Cage, he's going to be wild. That is going to be wild.
What is this? What day is this? Is this March? Yeah. Yes.
March. Let me see what else is on that card oh my good mauricio roofie and king green bro roofie's nasty that guy's good he is nasty he's fucking good man that's a great fight that's a great fucking fight nice i like it that's another one that just falls short is that alex moreno He's fucking good, man.
He's fucking good. Sometimes he gets a couple stumbles, but another guy, he reminds me of Matthews a little bit, where he's got the really good stand-up, and he's got, I like his jiu-jitsu a lot, too.
Some good fight nights, Cannoneer and Rodriguez, that's a good fight. Oh, my God.
I like that little style. Bro, Cejudo and Song Yudong is a tough fight for Cejudo.
Song Yudong is fucking dangerous, man. I thought Cejudo was going to retire.
That guy's good. When is that? He was, but he can't.
He wants to come back. He can't.
It's February 22nd. That fucking juice.
Oh, that is real soon. Brendan Allen.
Oh, that's a good card. Gene Silva's nasty.
Yes. Dominic Cruz is out.
He retired. Yeah.
He ripped his shoulder apart. Poor Curtis Blades.
Oh, that sucks for Dominic. He always had some problems with health.
Barbosa's still fighting. Still fighting.
Yeah, man. He's fucking still good, too.
That's just crazy. How about Ricky Simone still in the heat? All right.
Let's wrap this up. Bring it home.
Fun shit, man. Fun times.
Matt Serra, thank you very much for joining us. Thanks, man.
Beautiful to have you, brother. I appreciate the invite, man.
