All right, boys, a little break on the podcast, but we're back with a big episode. Before we get into it, you guys know, we have been firing on prize picks, like crazy. I've fired on so many different apps, and trust me, prize picks is by far the best. Instead of choosing teams, you're choosing individual players. Each player has a set projection, and you either go more or less than that set projection. So, if you know sports and if you know what players are going to perform on what nights, trust me, download the prize picks app. This is the app for you.

And boys, on the first time, use code Nelk. This is a first time code for first time users, and it's a 100% deposit bonus. So use code, no, take advantage of that code. That's for you, boys. And trust me, everyone's been blowing me up about prize picks. It's literally exploding because it's such an awesome app. It's so, so fun, so different.

I personally love her. I wouldn't even tell you, boys, about it. Download the prize picks act, use code nelk. Let's get in the pot. It's good. What's up, Nicole? Hi. How are you?

How skinny is he? Really skinny is he. Disciplined. What? All right, let's go. You missed signing or what? I said you random texts. Hopefully.

Before, I got a random one that was like, I think we're best friends now and I'm like, yeah, I think you just texted the wrong person. I haven't talked to you in my four months. All right, boys, we're back. Another full send podcast episode. Took a little break. We're going to have Dana back on the pod. Dana's just like, it's kind of like when we do like an internal episode too.

Like, Dana's just pretty much one of the boys at this point. It's pretty crazy to be able to call him an actual friend. Yeah. How many days a week you think you talk to him? It could be like we don't talk for like a week and then we talk like every day or we're texting about something or FaceTiming about. Just like any other friend. But is it like random?

Because you don't do too many like checkups on me and shit. Yeah, how have you been? How are you doing? Do you guys have that relationship? Yeah, I check up on him a lot. That's, yeah, see. A lot. That's pretty cool.

Yeah. He does the same for you? I check up on you. Only if you've seen some crazy shit that I got into. No. There's never like a random phone call or like a text. Like you wouldn't send me like a happy Thanksgiving text. I don't think you'd send me one either.

Yeah, I would. Happy Thanksgiving? Yeah. Maybe. Well, it's because like if I see you on social media, I know what you're doing.

Oh. But if you go quiet, I also just know like you're on a bendy. Yeah. It's just like there's not, I don't want to bother you when you're in that bendy mode. Yeah, no.

There's nothing to really check out. Like last time I didn't see you. Don't check up because you already know where my mental state. Exactly. Last time I didn't see you for like a week or two or some shit. I knew you were in New York just getting absolutely after it. Yeah, that was the scariest week of my life. I'm not going to lie.

That was pretty bad. But speaking of New York, you just attended UFC. Who'd you take? I took O.T. Megan? O.T. Megan? And Gabe. Oh. And then you met Trump and.

Trump was there. He came up to me, dab me up. Did you introduce your date to him? No, I didn't actually. You can't introduce your girl to Trump. What's that like when Trump looks back at you, shakes your hand, and you have like your date or i don't know what you're is dating or no okay just friends but like what's her immediate reaction when she sees that because that's a pretty soft it's pretty soft it's pretty sauce it's

pretty sauce Tucker carlson came up threw in a little zen with them oh yeah how was that he's such a beauty he takes level six is right yeah yeah i'm on the six bombers too me too yeah the three just don't yeah but even the yeah the three is just like it's like a different form of a pick me up i feel like it's so nice though it wakes me up it's not even for the head rush it's just like the feeling of just having an upper deck just in your fucking lip yeah and just like slightly burns your lip a little bit you just it just feels so comfortable i know i need one right to have a zen upper deck especially after a few drinks like you know when you're at the send and you're just like you're buzzing and you're like all right

i've had a few too many it's like it's time to throw in a nice zen just milk one for like yeah usually if that's the case i'm thinking of something else but yeah i'm thinking of a nice sin no me too Yeah. I mean, dude, if I could hang out with any, like... I feel like you're trying to expose me there for the OT shit. What do you mean, bro? Just sneak, sneak up on me with that one, eh? No, I mean, that's a pretty big opportunity.

Ringside, you could take any... You took her out a few times, right? Like, casual shit. How many? Twice? No, more. But it was like, three. But it was like casual, like, yo, going to the club, come with.

It wasn't like, yo, going to sit ringside. President's going to be there. Going to tap up Tucker Carlson and meet Dana White. Yeah, I didn't either. I was surprised at how many people I found it on the way there. And then I told her, I said, yeah, by the way, Trump's going to be there. There was a lot of people there. Kid Rock.

It was like the Avengers walking out. We should talk to Dana about that. Yeah. No, that was, well, I'm happy for you, bro. I don't know, like, I'm sure she's hitting you up, blowing you up, O.T. I'm sorry, I have friends owned you. I don't know. Are you guys just friends?

Yeah, we're just friends. Okay. All right, well, let's get Dana in here. Yeah. It's okay. What are we have, big guy? Where are we have? We're living good.

238 today. 238? All right. Let's see how much this guy like money. I know. Why? Where does he have to get to? Got big cash on the line right now.

Tell us some fucking weight. But how... Cash doesn't motivate you what will. How is that fair? How is what fair? Like he's, he's not disciplined. He's got a little cheat code. Is it the same thing?

Say that again? He's not disciplined. He's on the shot. Okay. So don't you think that's like a little unfair? Yeah, it's very unfair. But he's still not fucking making the weight, even though he's on the shot.

Don't you think that's ridiculous then? I think he needs more motivation. Don't up the case. Some people are motivated in different ways. Tell us about the bet. So I made a bet with him to lose weight. I couldn't believe when we did the power slap thing that he was 300 fucking pounds. It's just the guy doesn't look 300 pounds.

So he thought the scale was broken. So I made a bet with him for 10 Gs, right, that he could get down to 15, 15 Gs, that he would get down. Uh, 25 pounds. boom he hit it he did it but that first 25 when you're 5 foot fucking 6 300 pounds is easy to fucking lose so he does it then we uh we make another bet to get him to the next level and the day's coming up because i'm supposed to see him in new york and he starts blowing my assistant up saying he's not going to make the weight and i'm like what fucking mean he's not going to make the weight this is bullshit so we get him on the phone so we readjusted the bet to the December show

When he shows up here in December, you have to weigh what? 2.30, and you get what? So if he weighs 230 pounds, he gets another 15,000. So he's upped his fucking salary by $30,000 this year if he can fucking make it. Then once we hit that, then we'll make another goal. Holy fuck. Why are he giving this guy so much money? I didn't give him many money.

I gave him 15,000. I tried to give him another 15,000, and he refused it. So we're going again. How much do you have to go? You know why I'm doing it because I like him. No, I know. he's a nice kid and i like him and i want him to be able to do this and and some people are motivated by different things and i thought money would motivate him and i was wrong so we're going

to give it another shot and if that doesn't work food motivates him unfortunately that's the problem well unfortunately food motivates all of us yeah you know what i mean the difference the difference in some people is you have to have to have you you have to have this ability to fight with yourself you know you ever hear joe rogan talk about the inner bitch that fucking tries to you know fuck with you everybody has it you just have to fucking you you have to have the mental toughness to get through this stuff i just did this fucking 86 hour fast yeah what made you what made you decide to do that like how did that i saw this thing online with this doctor from boston he was saying and there's there's clinical studies they've done studies on this thing they're done it

on animals and humans but if you do this water fast for seven days basically when you put your body through adversity right different types of adversity like coal plunger for instance you stay in there for three minutes at 50 degrees, your body thinks you're dying and your liver releases that shock protein, right? Which is really good for you. When you do this, when you do this water fast, your body starts fighting to try to stay alive when you do stuff like this to it. So apparently it sheds all the bad dead cells and regenerates all these new cells to fight starvation or whatever the body thinks is happening. How does that not make sense? It's crazy. It's fucking awesome, man, is what it is. And there's over a 70% chance that when you do

this. You don't get Alzheimer's disease or fucking cancer and a bunch of other nasty shit. So I talked to Gary Breka, I run everything by this guy. So Breka said it's absolutely true. It absolutely works. But you don't have to do sevenfold days. Do 72 hours and told me all these things to do. I'm telling you, I felt incredible, man. I felt while you were doing it, you felt incredible? Yeah. And I worked all day every day like I do and worked out every day like I do. really yeah my last day of the fucking i could have gone longer i could have done fucking seven days i felt so good okay so you what were the urges like to fight you don't get hungry at all so the urges are this when you when you start getting into like 48 hours 50 hours you're not

hungry but you're thinking about fucking food when you think about our life everywhere we look and everything we do turn on the tv and try to watch a fucking football game it's fucking pizza and, you know, fast food restaurants and all this fucking shit that just beating you over the head subliminally. And then you start walking around your house and you look at the shit that you got in your house and you're not hungry.

You're just, you're bored and you're walking around snacking and, you know. So I love doing stuff that tests your will like that. I love it. So Gary tells me to do it twice a year. I'm going to do it twice a year. Fucking everybody's doing it. Everybody here at UFC is doing it.

Skip did it first. You saw how Rip Skip got after three days. It rips you. to fucking shreds, which is great, but really what the benefit is internally, you know what I mean? But I say this all the time. It's like with the blood work with Gary, when everything's right inside, everything looks good on the outside too. Do you put that weight back on after? I'm still at 192. What were you before? After the fast, I was 192. Do you know you were before the fast? Yeah, I was like, see, I'm still, but my buddies that did it lost 10 pounds. I only lost like

five or six. And I did it coming straight out in New York. And I ain't going to lie. I ate a couple of, I ate a couple of bad things in New York But I want to hear something fucking crazy So when you hear me talk about the Gary Breckett thing all the time And all the things that cleared up No more meds, all the shit And I stopped snoring, no sleep apnea So apparently we went to an Italian restaurant one night

I said, fucking I'm going to try a little bit of this pasta I ate a couple of the different pastas And just a few bites Snoring like a fucking beast that night Snored like a savage How fucking crazy is that? Pasta is so fucking bad though This food, man, this food over here

Just the food over here So you will still muck some like some pasta once in a while? No, but I did in New York. I did in New York. That's my weakness. We had a big fucking night out with everybody. We went to this Italian restaurant and normally I'm good. I'll get the steak or whatever.

Listen, eh. A couple bites won't kill me. Wrong answer. That's crazy. What do you guys went up to? What do we've been up to? I mean, we just been on the road for like two months. I know.

You guys are base. And congrats to you. Yeah. I'm trying. Well, you inspired us all to start going. You're that dude, man. You mean, you set your mind to it. You know, listen.

Listen, when you see successful people, there's a pattern. There's an absolute pattern. And I'm not saying you're not successful. I'm just saying. But when you see successful people, there's a pattern. When you set your mind to do something, you do it. I think it's so big too for us because, like, you know all the business combos we have too. And like we have that exact demo too.

Like if I'm a role model, I think with all the business going into everyone wants to be. healthy now post-COVID obviously too so I think obviously all the obvious benefits aside from getting healthy and getting in shape and just feeling good just I think from the next five years of my career whatever I do I think being healthy being in shape for all the businesses that we want to launch is so how much more energy do you have how much more clarity do you have now 100% and you know and you're a young dude you could have fucked around for another 10 years yeah you know I'm not a young dude and uh you know it's completely changed my life over the last two years I'm way more productive than I was two years ago. I'm on a whole other fucking level like I'm 30 again and you're

just addicted to it right addicted to it I'm a fucking in I'm all in I do the superhuman every day I travel with a fucking coal plunge now my room in New York has a coal plunge in it now I'm getting all these hotels that I stay at to build a coal plunge there and I'll stay there every time I go yeah I'm so fucking loony on this shit right now how many how many people are hitting you up telling you that you're inspiring them yeah I mean a lot of people are doing it What everybody's hitting me up is saying, introduce me to fucking Gary Brecker. That's what everybody's hitting me up saying. I'm literally 10, 15 a day.

Yeah. But yeah, no, people aren't, listen, if a 54-year-old dude who was all fucked up and had all these problems, I think a lot of people, and I was the same way, I think that a lot of people keep that shit to themselves. I mean, look how tight I am what you guys. You guys never knew how fucked up I was. You never heard me walking around going, oh, I'm fucked up. My legs, my this, my that, I sleep apnea.

You just, you know, a man. Yeah. You don't talk about that. shit you fucking deal with it and you go and you do your thing and then once i came out and started saying yeah this is what was wrong with me other dudes were like holy shit yeah i have that too and i thought it was just you know part of life what made what made you hit that breaking point i didn't hit a breaking point a carrie oh he approached you yeah yeah she's she's like Kyle two years ago if you told this to me the minute you walked away i'd be like that motherfucker's a nutbag yeah you know what i mean

he's fucking out of his mind he just makes a lot of sense the way i used to shit all over holistic medicine now and you said it's absolutely right now after covid covid woke us up to a lot of fucking bullshit with big pharma and these doctors and all this shit man all they want to do is put you on pills and yeah it's just it's an awakening i fucking woke up and and uh i'm one of these people i don't believe in anything till you fucking show me gary brekha has shown me that was such a crazy time covid i mean that's how we kind of first started hanging out and stuff like that have you been seeing uh one thing we want to to ask you was have you been seeing all the COVID like vaccine commercials it's insane have you

seen like even like Travis Kelsey promoting it and stuff like that what do you think about that what you take on that the Travis I don't know him I don't know anything about him um other than he's a good football player he's getting a lot of attention right now but other than I don't know why unless he's a believer why would you promote that garbage I don't know why you would do it um it's pretty fucking obvious we don't need it um but like i say to each his own man it's like um people that are still wearing masks you know unless you're asian because they were doing it way before it was cool you know what i mean the Asian people have been wearing masks for fucking it's true decades yeah you know what I mean they have if you're not Asian and you're still wearing a mask you're basically just telling everybody

hey I'm nuts hey check me out I'm fucking crazy uh we get it but I don't know man I don't know I mean he must have got He must have got a bag Well wait You're about to say there was no amount of money What?

There's no amount of money That would make me Do something that I didn't fucking believe in No amount of money We were talking about how So he must believe Yeah We were talking about how you

You walked out with Trump It was you Trump Kid Rock and Tucker right Yep It's a pretty crazy walk out It's like the fucking Avengers Right It was

New York is always A fucking experience man The MSG, the buzz, the energy. But the truth of the matter is, our fan base is aligned. I mean, we're, you know, our fan base, our fighters, everybody. I could walk out with Trump in San Francisco and the fucking place will go nuts. I mean, it's our fan base. I was going to ask you, how hard was it to break the news to Kid Rock that you were doing the Bud Light deal?

No, it wasn't hard to break the news to anybody when I tell everybody why I'm doing it. yeah why i'm with bud light um you know i was just i've been talking about this for fucking two weeks i'm only doing deals with with with brands that i'm aligned with right and i am way more aligned with anheiser bush than i am with any other beer company on this fucking planet let me just put it to you that way i'm i'm in the no i deal with i deal with the real shit every day. And, you know, I know Bud Light got hammered over over one thing that they did, but when you look at the company as a whole and what they stand for and what they believe in, and when you talk about what somebody believes in and what they stand for, look at what they've

done. Look at their track record, you know, and I've said it a million times. Sixty-five thousand Americans are employed at Henheuser-Busch. That should be your number one reason. Sixty-five thousand jobs in America, an American company. Number two. They spend almost a billion dollars a year with U.S. farmers. That alone should be another reason. A big majority of their of their employees are vets. They spent $44 million over the last several years taking care of fallen, first responders, families, military families of soldiers who have fallen.

You know, these guys are, I'm way more aligned with them than I am with anybody else. Someone's got to say it too. I'll just leave it. Bud Light is fire. Of course. I don't care. I'm not, call me trans, call me gay, but Bud Light, Bud Light's fire. Like, for a beer, if I'm drinking a beer, a nice crispy bud light is, I hate to say it.

I agree. I'm not even saying that. You don't have to hate to say it. It's true. And listen. We were making jokes about that. I just, I first think people were maybe a little bit surprised because you always stand on what you believe in.

100%. So don't be surprised. Yeah. That's. So there must be more to this story then. Yeah, exactly. Which you just explained. Yeah.

exactly so when you start talking about you know and here's the thing these people who consider themselves patriots and are like hardcore i fucking love this country i am an american and i love this country um you know if you consider yourself a patriot and you're talking about all the other beers out there i know all the other beers out there you should be drinking fucking barrels of bud light if woke is what you're worried about trust me when i tell you just trust me um everybody knows who I am. Everybody knows what I stand for. I don't need fucking money. People like, oh, you fucking sell out. I was going to get a shitload of money no matter what, who I went with. Yeah. Anyway. Yeah. So fucking good. And you don't have to say, hey, I hate to say it.

Bud Light is a great product. That's why they all get roasted for saying it too. That's why they were the number one beer in America forever. Put me on a lie detector. Like Bud Light's probably one of my favorite viewers for sure. So next week, I'm going out to Anheiser Bush and doing this whole tour and everything. And, you know, we were with them before. They have this room that you go down where the beer comes right out of the fucking processing plant and when it comes out you know this shit's bottled and then stored and shipped and all that stuff and you like bud like taste it coming right out of the fucking it's unbelievable i'll try it you guys should we should go down there you should meet me down there when is it uh we'll get

together with Nicole after and if you guys can come down you should you should do the fucking trip with me it's pretty bad at definitely take are you a lot to talk about without how much obviously so you can't say certain stuff, but how does that deal as like the president of the UFC? How do you navigate like that deal? I'm allowed to talk about whatever the fuck I want to talk about. When the like the previous sponsor thing expires, how does that kind of go down like the negotiation with the new sponsor?

Yeah. So, you know, we were in business with Modelo for the last six years and our deals up Jan 1. And the guy who was our go between. at Modelo is a good dude and I like him a lot and I respect them and uh you know we we talked and we went back and forth and we negotiated and um you know I finally had to make the call and say hey listen I'm gonna I'm gonna make a move and go somewhere else and uh you know I love the guy respect him and you know he did a great job with us and handling a lot of the stuff for us

during our relationship with them. So does Bud Light come in with the only offer? Are there like other offers that are like... There's plenty offers, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it's funny because when we first got our beer deal, you know, when you get into sports, the beer deal is a big deal.

What was that first beer deal? Mickey's Big Mouth was our first ever sponsor. And how much was that? And we used to drink that. You guys probably don't even fuck that is. No idea. It's a malt liquor. We all used to drink it in high school.

Oh, Mickey's. 40s. Mickey's. Yeah, and in a green bottle. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. They're not the tastiest.

exactly but they're affordable when you're young yeah yeah and uh so so we used to drink that shit and obviously we used to drink tons of fucking bud light when we were in high school too so um so when we first got our bud deal it was a big deal for us and the guy who was the king over a buddweiser the time was guy named tony tontoro tony pontoro was the most powerful fucking guy in all of sports and uh he was a good dude and we had fun with our first beer deal so Do you remember, like, what that first, like, bag was for the beer deal for the UFC? How much? Yeah, I don't remember off the top of my head.

But, you know, just the fact that we had that Bud Light logo in the fucking center. When we're done, so when I pitched Bud Light, and we were pitching them, I built this video that I made. I want to show you guys before you leave today. It's this Bud Light video that I made for. That's crazy. It'll resonate. Was that the big first sponsor for the UFC? Like, was that the first sponsor?

you're like holy shit yes yeah and you were probably fucking 12 or something uh wait did i show you this fucking commercial this is kind off topic but i just compare this to like other leagues like commissioner giddell and it seems like you have the most responsibility out of anybody like you're dealing with this and then you have you like you personally when you see all these stars that are at ufc events they all hit you up personally right yeah and they say hey i need tickets for this like it takes for that does that ever piss you off or how do you decide like i love it i love it man it's just it's it's all in how you uh all in how you look like Jared Leto

like if you'd have told me six years ago that me and Jared Letto would be good friends I'd have been like you're crazy there's there's not anything that Jared Letto and I could possibly have in common Jared Letto is the coolest motherfucker ever He goes to a lot of fights I love not only is it you watch his fucking everything

He knows every little detail hits me up all the time about this net Jared Letto I fucking love that kid Great great dude man And so most of the people that come are all really cool guys and you know you've you've interacted

with most of them it's very rare do we get a douchebag at a at a USC event usually the fans are really cool guys every time we're there we're just like

I mean usually thank you you seat us pretty well but sometimes like the real stars will be right in front of us yeah yeah well

you're not gonna put on I'm sorry I'll do anything for you guys no we know the problem with Nelk is you guys

roll 50 fucking 5 deep that's him you know what I mean 55 deep I've never had a So when we get Kyle's... That's the Shihidi's now. That's the Shihidi's, bro.

I swear to God. I swear, bro. So we get Kyle's allotment, right? Yeah. Then we get Steve's allotment, right? Yeah, it's a lot of the seats. Yeah, no. Let me tell you what.

You guys would be sitting on the fuck. You guys would be standing on the octagon for Christ's X. You roll 55 deep everywhere you go. Yeah. And we still get you guys. That's why last time in New York, I didn't bring Stiney. I just brought a chick. You brought a chick.

You know what happened? So you were in. Then you canceled. No, I know. And we're battling. we're getting all the fucking shit done it's like Friday and Amber hits me and goes yeah Kyle's back in so we got to move people there's people in those seats so do you deal with that though yes I do every fucking seating chart every weekend for the last 23 years yeah see that's fucking I see everybody

so they hit me up and they're like Kyle's back in so who did you some people is it okay to say who we moved far I don't know and they got moved is it okay to say who we moved for Kyle Couldn't have been a super important guy if you're moving. If you're in Madison Square Guard in New York City and the second row 50 yard line, oh yeah, you were somebody. Did you see the girl he was with? They got moved. You see the girl he was with?

No, but I heard about the girl that he was with. From who, Jr.? Exactly. I've seen him liking her photos. That is fucking hilarious. Yeah, that's amazing. That is hilarious. One thing I've always wondered is, like, the U.S.

he doesn't allow for like you'll see in boxing how a fighter can walk out with like a rapper or like their entourage and that's something you've never allowed right no they walk out with their team they walk out with the guys who train them and help them get there and and whatever we we don't turn it into a fucking circus and have you ever noticed in the boxing there's 500 people in the ring that don't belong on the ring who the fuck are these people and why are they in there they're nobody's looking to get on fucking tv that's what they are the only people that are in the fucking octagon are people that need to be in the octagon right i know it is so crowded at the end of a boxing fight right it's fucking crazy what that's up for them all trying to even the promoters yeah even

the promoters are going in there for what the fuck do you need to be in there for yeah um you know when i go in there when it's time to put the fucking belt on or if a big fucking melee starts to break out or whatever that's it well like you said that's what our section looks like because we roll so deep with guys after a boxing fight with all those guys in the ring that's literally what our table is going to look like at Marquis. No, we don't have that many guys. But it is. It's fucking crowded.

And you're like, who are these people? What the fuck's going on? So it's more of a safety thing. We were in the back. Remember I was coming back from walking Trump down and when I was coming back? You guys were all standing up by the elevator over there. And fucking Logan Paul was in there. Logan Paul did not ask for tickets.

I never fucking talked. I didn't even know he was there until we were walking out and he was in the back. Did you see him? No. I saw him. The UFC posted he was there. Yeah. How crazy is that?

Well, can't he just get his own tickets with the prime shit? Well, you think he bought him? But when you're talking about, huh? You think he bought him? I don't know what he did. I got to ask him how he got those fucking tickets. And Dylan Danis was there, too. I didn't know that either till after he's out front fighting with everybody.

But I saw it on Instagram. But maybe he was in a box or something. Maybe he was in a box with somebody who, I don't know. But I see that. I came out and I was like, hey, what's going on? I see that being asked a lot, Dylan Danis in the UFC. Is that something that you'd ever entertain? I don't know.

Do you think he should be? I heard he just retired. I don't know. Like, yeah, I know the UFC's all about, like, the best of the best. As a fan, I'd watch it. But I don't know. It's, I know. It's like maybe he has to earn his way, just like any other fighter would have to earn their way, right?

Well, here's the other thing. The other thing with him is, and I have no beef with the kid at all. I've never, I've probably said two words to him in my whole life. But every time he's around, shit's going down. You know what I mean? And we can't have that stuff going on here. You can't, you know, a lot of people will see, like, when guys, get into it on stage or something starts to happen they're like oh they must love this or whatever no no we don't love it

we don't need that shit to sell fights and basically what happens is when that like the physical altercations and shit the the athletic commission goes crazy and people start getting fined and you know they come after us it's our job to keep that shit under control that's why when you see these other events with these guys and everything breaks out like that it's a fucking those guys are it's a shit show right yeah total unprofessional clown show does the impact that he had on the prime card with the amount of paper beef sales they sold uh none of that's like damn maybe we give him a try what do you mean just because he got a lot of credit for selling a lot of fucking paper views i don't know what they did i haven't heard about anybody selling a lot of paper views lately they claimed i think they claimed it was 1.3 million i don't know

what numbers it actually did i think he just obviously hyped it up a lot let me tell you this let me tell you how hard it is to sell 1.3 million paperview buys And if you did sell 1.3, if you sold fucking 700,000 pay-per-view buys, they'd be putting on fights fucking 10 times a year. When you hear those kind of numbers fly around the paper view world, they're lying motherfuckers. Don't ever believe that shit. Yeah.

You know how much fucking money that is if they went in and cut a deal and did 1.3 million payper-view buys? Anybody who's been on any of these fucking horrible boxing shows. And I like, I like, you know, Logan and some of these guys are involved in this shit. If you come out and you say that you did 1.3 million pay-per-view buys on your event, you're lying through your fucking teeth. Lying through your teeth. Yeah. That amount of money that you would make, they'd be fucking doing pay-per-views all the fucking time.

And let me tell you what, every pay-per-view distributor out there would want them and Showtime wouldn't win out of business. Yeah. Yeah. I think that event too kind of like I was personally even like hyped up for it just because the personal beef obviously but I think after watching it now it just kind of ruined it because the fights were so bad and it's like it's not something that you'd actually pay for like maybe I'm just going to wait and see the clips on Instagram 100% you know what I'm saying like I'm not going to watch it live next time I think much cheaper and a much better experience the production

sucks the fucking fights end up sucking it's shitty boxing is what it is yeah um and I'm gonna try to shit I don't care what these guys do knock yourself out they obviously crushed it These are just facts. Yeah. And to say that they're doing any numbers, all these different people have tried to invest in this shit. And they've tried to raise money and do all this other bullshit. Right. People would be fighting over them.

Yeah. Fighting over them and throwing fucking truckloads of money at them if they did anywhere near a million buys. None of those fucking guys are doing a million buys. Yeah. It is just crazy. Like when you think, though, the power of social media, like, no one really wants to see those guys fight, but they create so much beef on. Twitter on their phones that people really will tune into that shit instead of watching two great fighters that are kind of quiet. Well, that's the problem right now for boxing is that,

you know, these guys are overshadowing the guys that are actually really good and the fights that could be made. You know what I mean? As far as hype goes. For sure. But as far as sales go, no. In the long term, it's probably bad for the sport. I don't know, man. I mean, when we talk about We've been talking about what's bad for boxing And boxing's dead for the last fucking 30 years But this shit's still going on But, you know, there isn't the money in it That everybody thinks there is

Yeah, there's not And there's no business there at the end of the day It's all just a bunch of hype and bullshit And shitty boxing You think they'll ever Is there ever a chance that there'll be another Connor Floyd type fight In the UFC's history?

To say no would be crazy because you never know what's going to happen every year as we go into a new year and i'm looking at what we did i'm like how the fuck do we beat next year and and we start looking at the lineups of fights that are coming up right there's always these fights that pop up that you don't see coming and you never expect and you know like when we were at fight island you know the birth of hamzatimai of you know what i mean and look at where this dude is now and that that's the fun of being in this fucking business i love when that shit happens and uh but it happens every year a fight pops up that you don't see coming and when it does it's really fun we just walked in this room we can't say anything but there's

a lot of unannounced fights right on the wall that i didn't even know about and locations and shit so i'm looking at this and i'm like holy fuck right 2024 is about to be a big year it's going to be bad ass and you know it's fun going back to toronto brother i know yeah that's going to be fucking crazy i'm excited for that i'm so fucking excited to go back to toronto you know there's just such a so much mMA fan i got goosebumps right now telling me i have this i have this i have this fucking love for toronto canada you know what i mean when we first started blown up in canada you know we we had gsp up there and everything and we did these big fights in toronto i love the city i love the people i love the energy the fucking hotels and everything

Yeah. It's incredible. Yeah.

It's the most brilliant segment ever built in a fucking sports show, right? Yeah. It's incredible. Every time I watch it, it blows my fucking mind. But you hear this saying that people have, I'm going to throw some money on it to make the game fun. It ain't fucking fun. There's nothing fun about watching this game play out and sweating your fucking money like that. And there was one last night.

We were playing cards last night. Me and Taylor LeWam, Taylor's in town. So we were playing cards last night. Red Rock and we're watching the bad beats it was like a 60 uh the over under was 60 right and uh there was two minutes left at a game and you know it was like 47 and to watch how everything unfolded in the last two and a half minutes to go over the fucking 60 it's just like every fucking weekend that shit happens man can't what's betting is not fun gamble you listen to what about when do you crazy you started playing but

That could be like having a 20 and then watching like five cards come out on the dealer and hitting a 21 too. Yeah, exactly. No, but they get a seven card fucking 21 to beat you. The difference is that you can sweat that game for two and a half hours look so good. And then 30 minutes things change. It's the worst fucking sweat. That's why I don't do it. How about this?

How about you bet a 10 team parlay, right? How many people that are watching this right now bet like 10 team parlay's and shit? You win nine fucking games over the weekend. And then the last game on your fucking thing. you end up losing in some goofy bullshit or whatever it's it's fucking unbelievable and i've had i've had too much of it so do you do you know what your number your biggest hand sweat was ever oh yeah like your biggest action on one uh one hand of blackjack oh blackjack oh fuck blackjack has been fucking i mean i i i've done just about everything that you could do in a fucking blackjack

game i want a million dollars uh in one hand um a million in one hand you remember the hand yeah it was at mandalay bay because of the limits that they let me bet there I had two hands out there at 75 I had splits that split out so many ways doubles from the splits and fucking

everywhere so what's funny is the guy that was my host at the time we were talking like two weeks before me and my crew and we were like you know if this ever plays out my old security guy fucking was saying if this plays out the way there could be a million dollar hand and and my guy was like no no no there could never be a million dollar hand fucking two weeks later a million dollar hand and i won it how was that sweat i walked out of

the room when they started flipping the fucking cards over man once the things started to play out and he was getting ready to flip his i walked outside the room and i was waiting to hear dead fucking silence or people going crazy and the whole room erupted so i came running back in but the real question is did you walk away after that huh did you walk away after that uh or did you No, because I think I was in and, no, I kept playing. I kept playing. I don't know how it ended that night, but, but I kept playing. But I've had so many nights.

I mean, we were literally just, I had a fucking crazy night last night. Well, I was going to say something that you do that people might not know and you bail people out all the time. You bailed me out. You bailed Kyle out. Steve. Like, why do you? Only, only difference is you beg. I was due for one.

Yeah, yeah. It'll come around. No, I'll bail you out any day, brother. No, that's the one time of you. No, no. Well, that's where he came from. He was groomed. He was groomed by minery.

Okay. I really, we got another groomer. Brett says, Brett says he might be worse. He might be worse. No, the fucking way.

I really appreciate that, though. But why do you do that for everybody? Just because you're a good guy. Why wouldn't I do it? You know what I mean? Why wouldn't I do it? So last night, so Taylor Luan has,

since Power Slap won. Yeah. Taylor LeWan has been playing. I play for him and he comes over. So to date, we played last night. He won another 30 Gs last night. He has won $420,000 this year.

What the fuck? fuck i play with his money and that's crazy and that's with one of the times he came we lost we lost one of the time so there's been five power slap events this year for uh we won one we lost and uh he's up four 20 when do you quit quit what gambling never and take your win i'll never quit i'll never quit i you know i and i don't sports quit but every once in a while like when i say every once in a while like maybe i usually i have a super bowl party at my house every year and i'll go to the up to the Red Rock and I'll buy shit loads of prop bets and I give them out

to everybody that comes to my house. You know, just have the machine running through them and bet and sometimes I'll bet and, you know, the kids and everything and, you know, that's for fun. You know, we're not big money one way or the other and all that shit. Just, you know, if you come over to my party

and you grab five or six tickets and three or four of them hit, you know, people leave there with three, 400 bucks that night for bets they didn't even have to go play. So I like gambling, man. I grew up in this town. I love this fucking city Every night when I drive home

I post the same fucking View of my fucking You know the highway going to my house It's just I can't tell if this city was built for me Or if I was built for this city But I fucking love this place Oh yeah Well hopefully we don't get to talk to night

Yeah And shit's gonna be crazy here You know If you look at F1 And all the shit that's going on The Super Bowl is going to be fucking 10,000 times bigger than F1 it's going to be

fucking crazy so that weekend Friday we're doing power slap Saturday is UFC and Sunday is the Super Bowl Holy shit yeah have you announced the UFC card yet not yet we're gonna have two of the biggest fucking parties you know there's parties going on everywhere

so basically we're telling you know how fucking power slap is a party right and then we'll all end up in fucking Red Rock and go crazy up there and then we'll do the same thing Saturday night and then we'll do the Super Bowl Actually, I'm going to go to Rubin just called me about an hour ago. He's having a couple of fucking cool parties here.

Yeah, I'm going tomorrow. Huh? To Delilah Saturday night? Are you? Yeah, you want to go together? No, I'm pretty cool for me. I can't tomorrow. Okay.

You're saying for Super Bowl. I'm saying Super Bowl. Oh, okay. Oh, the fanatics. Yeah, I've been invited to a million of his parties and I've never been. So we were just talking. He's like, this is going to be the first party you're ever going to attend of mine at Super Bowl. Because there's no excuses.

This will for sure. That weekend will for sure be, you think. the biggest weekend Vegas has ever had. Nobody throws parties like fucking Ruben does. This guy's fucking unbelievable. But I mean in terms of like money for the city of Las Vegas, the Super Bowl. It's going to be the biggest thing that has ever fucking happened in Las Vegas. The biggest thing of all time.

I don't know how much action is wagered that weekend. Then Vegas just got a baseball team too, right? Yeah, they got the A's. We got the A's, not they. You go to all the Raiders games, don't you? Huh? You go to a lot of the Raiders games? I have a box.

Yeah. So you go to all them? none really don't go to any of them no but i have a box there do you watch NFL or no i do but this year i really haven't watched a lot of football this year and i love the raiders because i love max crosby yeah he's the fucking man fucking awesome man he's on fire this year too he's a beast a fucking animal man i love it's a beast to watch love everything about this kid his mindset attitude great personality fun dude to hang around with good human being crosbie is a shit and he's basically the leader of that team yeah another biggest thing uh the sphere is is there anything you could tell

us about i'm so i'm so fucking pumped for this thing i i haven't you know the last big challenge in my life was covid so the next big challenge in my life is a sphere how to figure this thing out and how to turn this into the greatest fucking live sporting event anybody's ever seen as far as you know combat sports go so do you book it and then figure it out or figure it out then book it booked it now i got to figure it out. And you didn't, you guys didn't figure out shit before. And I've talked a lot of fucking shit. Yeah. Yeah. You really love to put pressure on yourself, huh? I love to put pressure on myself. That's exactly right. I'll fucking love it.

I know, we were talking about that too, even the New York thing. I remember watching the UFC and you guys always just hammering like the state of New York. You guys that people forget, right? It's crazy, but I was watching one that, like, it wasn't what it was, right? So what happened was. There was states that didn't allow UFC. There was a corrupt politician and I used to call this guy out saying that he was corrupt what was he corrupt for he ended up going to prison like what like was he at a fucking old age he was an old fucking dude he went to prison they let him out of prison to die basically before he died why was he he was connected to the las Vegas culinary union who are total pieces of shit these guys right

and the Las Vegas culinary union is what was keeping us out of New York why like Because the Furtitas are a non-union casino. Okay. Yeah, the Furtitas are non-union. So these guys were spending all their members dues to attack the UFC and attack me personally. And as soon as the Furtitas were out, it stopped. Wow. Yeah.

They had a website, UFC, bad for children and all this other shit. Just total fucking scumbags. Yeah. And that's what kept us out. And the guy that they were in cahoots with was a fucking criminal. The Las Vegas Culinary Union, this guy was a criminal. He ended up going to fucking prison. And so then we get into New York, right?

Seven years we've been in New York. Number one, number two, and number three, all time at Madison Square Garden for the biggest gates ever. How's that dick taste? Las Vegas Culinary Union. How many times have you gotten to say that? How many times have you gotten to say that? How's this dick taste? Everyone's the first time.

That's funny. You know the most viral clip of you that I see every day is when you call out the younger generation for being... What made you say that? Like, what is it about these younger kids? You think that they're just such fucking... I mean, there's a... I could go on for fucking 20 minutes.

There's a lot of reasons why I think they are. And it's not like during my generation, there weren't a bunch of, you know, there weren't some people, too. But this generation is next level. But the other thing, too, to be fair, I think every generation thinks the next generation is soft. But right now, you know, if you look at all the shit that's going on in the world right now, if we went to war, right, there's no respect for the police anymore, there's no respect for the military, there's no respect for our country, our freedom, our way of life that we have here.

You can sit around and you can pick, you know, nitpick and talk about things that are wrong with the United States. Let me tell you something. I'm going to tell fucking your generation, my generation, everybody's generation. This is it. If this falls, there's no other fucking place to go. So all these fucking people are like, oh, God, if President Trump wins, I'm fucking leaving the country. They all say it. Yeah.

They all say it. Yeah, of course. Nobody fucking does it. No. Where are you going to go? Nowhere. All these other fucking places that you think are fucking cool and you think are so fucking great. When the shit hits the fan.

you find out who's who and what's what we saw it during COVID places that I thought were awesome places that I thought I would love to live and then we go through COVID gang this is it so all the people that are out there marching and crying and and protesting and all this man this is the greatest country on earth and and we should be defending it fighting for our freedom every one of us. It's no different than the conversation I have with Theo Vaughn the other day when we're talking about stupid like sponsors and all this other stuff. Everybody's afraid to stand up. Everybody's afraid to be pro-American. What other country? And some of these other countries are completely f***ed up. But the people who live there are proud of where they come from.

They carry their flag. They stand up and they, you know, you talk about, you know, people coming over the border for Mexico for a better life in America, right? Show me a Mexican that doesn't love his country and isn't proud to be a fucking Mexican. Wake up. Wake up. This is the greatest country in America. So anyway, this whole thing started with you saying. So if we go to war right now, are you confident in this generation that we have right now

that these guys are going to go out and storm beach somewhere or whatever? There's a small handful of people, most of them probably down around the Bible Belt, and down south that'll actually stand up and fight this country right now it's scary Habib's crew in Dagestan could probably come in and take over this country right now because this generation is such a bunch of yeah that's right yeah when you look at some of these people in these other countries that's going on in the middle east these some of these guys from Russia any of the stons you got a ston at the end of the name of your country you know about

funny you see that born different different different mentality we're getting soft yeah we're getting weak every

every 10 years we get softer and weaker I've never actually thought about that but every like when I used to work in a restaurant obviously a lot of Mexicans there are so proud of Mexico

and they all come from shit you know like terrible living but they always will stand with Mexico fucking so proud show me a country where the people

aren't proud of who they are and where they come from yeah it's so strong that Americans that have that heritage call themselves that, right? Yeah. Where are you? I'm Italian.

No, you're not. You're a fucking American. What do you? I'm Irish. No, you're not. You're an American. And nobody hates it more than these people who are really from those countries when Americans say that they're from there.

You know, what people need to wake up and realize is that we're all Americans. You're an African American. No, you're not. You're fucking American. I'm Irish American. No, you're not. you're fucking we're all Americans and we need to stop fucking look around and realize what we have

and how good it is Ronald Reagan great quote from Ronald Reagan we're one generation away from losing our freedom and every fucking 10 years it feels like we keep getting further and further away from that um and we need to wake up we need fucking trump to win yeah please how are you feeling about it you think that jumps back in the white house it's crazy it's it's fucking uh I mean did you see what happened in San Francisco yesterday or two days ago? Yeah, they cleaned up all the fucking streets. Crazy. All the streets.

Yeah. What? You think they're starting to do shit now? Because they're going to worry. But you wouldn't do that for the people of San Francisco? I wouldn't you do that for the people of San Francisco. How do you fuck up California? One of the great- Arguably. Fucking terrible.

Arguably. One of the greatest fucking places on earth. I know. There's a handful of places on earth. That can even rival California. California is one of the fucking greatest places on earth. And, you know. How do you let it go to shit? You're absolutely right.

The entire state's beautiful. So you showed that in a week you could clean the fucking whole place up. Yeah. But you won't do it for the people of California who are paying the taxes there and live there and work there. L.A. is fucking different now. No, L.A.'s gone to shit. Let me tell you what. It's gone to complete shit.

12 years ago, I used to look. look for excuses to go to L.A., man. I'd be like, I'd, I'd create meetings to go to fucking L.A. I don't go to L.A. ever anymore. It's not. I go to L.A. if I have to go to L.A., and that's it. You know? You saw we're moving to Florida?

I did. We're pumped. Yeah. Everybody's moving to Florida, Texas, or Nevada. The only thing it sucks is farther from Vegas, but that's your only downside. Yeah. Yeah. Last time I, so basically, Miami. is what L.A. used to be.

My last trip to Miami, man. I went to Miami back in 2009. Me and Lorenzo went down there. It was when the economy crashed. That was the last time you've been there since. No. We parted besides that time. We went there for, I know, I'm saying.

But for years, I hadn't been there since then. Oh, okay. Since 2009. And it was a shit hole. Windows all boarded up, fucking, you know, blah, blah. Miami is off the charts now. Off the charts. It's one of the fucking hottest places on Earth.

People out everywhere. Restaurants are unbelievable packed. We were at that, you know. Gretman's spot. 100%. And it's fucking incredible. And it's DeSantis. DeSantis is one of the greatest governors of all time.

If I lived in Florida, I wouldn't want DeSantis to run for fucking president. I want DeSantis to be in Florida for the rest of my fucking life. What that guy did through COVID, what he did to that state. And he's the reason everybody's moving down there right now. so yeah um much much respect to desantis for for what he's done in state of florida i want to know how close was the the elon and zuck fight to ever happening you know i was talking to these guys you know once or twice or three times a week leading up to that whole thing it was very real and and for the for the for the brief moment that it was happening it was fucking fun i was having

a blast with it you know Zuckerberg is fascinating in his own ways yeah he's all in you can Musk is fascinating in his own way. So talking to both of these guys on a daily basis on this stuff was, it was fun, man. I have a lot of respect for both guys. I like them both a lot. And it was fun in the short amount of time that it. Why do you think it fell through? Well, they're both, one of them is 54 years old.

They're both fucking multi-billionaires. And, you know, I think that Zuckerberg is obsessed. This has become an obsessive. session for Zuckerberg. Yeah, you can tell. He's one of those guys that once he fucking zeroes in on something, you can tell he's all in.

For Musk, this is kind of like, you know, this was Musk fucking, you know. He likes talking shit and fuck you and da-da-da-da-da. And Musk is brilliant. And the thing about Musk,

too, is he's a very necessary fucking human being in this country right now. He gets it, he sees it, he has the money, he doesn't give a fuck. And he's brilliant. And he has a ton of fucking

common sense and he's not going to let anybody fucking you know push him around so he he's he's a voice and a presence that this country needs right now maybe the world not just not just the United States the world Elon Musk is an essential fucking human right now on this planet is there any other like super fights that you could see happening over the next like two years or year there is we're talking about one right now actually that just popped up a few days ago so i can't talk about it but you know until we get a is it involved mcgregor at all um well every fight that you would consider a super fight would would involve mcgregor but this one isn't no damn do you think connor i know you guys

asked it a lot but connor does he fight next year you think 100% fights next year and is it still versus chandler is it still or it could be anyone now we'll see i mean we'll see the timing of when it goes down the good thing for guys like chandler and you know there's a lot of shit talk about fight or pay and all that other shit you don't see these guys hurrying up the fight john jones takes off for fucking years chandler can hang out and wait for fucking connor you know what i mean i mean when you think about chandler was fighting in fucking bellator right now chandler can just sit around and take his time and you know wait for connor however long it takes and you know so these guys are all in good positions where they can wait for the right time right fight i guess technically you wouldn't deserve it but as a fan like i love the buildup islam versus conner would be crazy Yeah. I think Chandler, when you actually think about the fight, Chandler Connor is a fun fucking fight. Yeah. For sure. Fun fight. Anytime Connor fights.

And Chandler. Yeah. Tell me the last boring fight Chandler was in. Even going back to Bellator. He was an exciting fight in Bellator too. He's a cool ass guy, too. He's a very good dude. Very nice guy.

you know um Kyle it's not a sugar daddy anymore he's got a new one and uh you know it's it's kind of this weird thing with menary you know and you go through it too you know Bob's one of those guys like he's a fucking he's a nightmare but then when you talk to him he has that personality that the guy that sucks you back in he's not a bad guy right he's just fucked up yeah but he's also the most entertaining human being yeah no it's true he's a fucking train wreck yeah he is a walking talking fucking train wreck and uh he cannot get out of his own way he can't help himself it's almost like he has to sabotage himself if things start to get too good yeah he has to destroy it and sabotage himself and then go my life and fucking get on fucking

you know what i mean and start whatever you know And, oh, it's fucking crazy. I don't know. I don't think people know how much we've talked about this behind the scenes too. It's fucking crazy, you know? We must have had over a hundred calls about this, right? Probably more. At least it's funny.

I don't hate Bob. I don't dislike Bob. He's a fascinating human being. But all the relationships that he is damaged over the last, however many years that since he popped up, he popped up like right before COVID, had the funny videos and shit like that and went on a nice little run but sabotaged every single fucking relationship he's ever had very few people will take his call these days and it's like he can't help himself he cannot every time he hits the you were the pinnacle of success for him he was fucking there

that dude was going to fucking had it set and was going to make real money and and it's fascinating as i was in it but out on the outside not in but not in but not in and to watch it all enravel and I was talking to both sides. I was talking to you. I was talking to him. I was talking to the Shahidis. And I tried to reel him in and get him to do this. And he just was in this place where he just absolutely refused. And it's not like Minery's stupid. Minery's not stupid. And he was sabotaging himself. I don't get it. I don't get it. It's fascinating. I don't know what he I don't know what he wanted. He wanted to destroy it.

I don't know. Yeah. No, I'm telling you. He wanted to destroy it. There's no amount of money that you could have went back to him with and said, this is what will pay you. Are you all right? Maybe it would have said, maybe for 30 seconds he would have said, all right?

Two days later, he would have destroyed it. He's got this self-destruction thing. Yeah, I don't get it. I don't think we'll ever understand it. You mean Irene, Jim Carrey, where he has two personalities. he's like two people yeah it's like that yeah it's true two two different people you're right so yeah no he's definitely got some he's got some issues yeah uh he's got a fucking laundry list issues but he's got this this this thing where he he will sabotage anything good in his life

do you pay attention to a lot of other creators or like do you watch what's hot and what's like the next big thing like do you have you seen i'm fascinated by the whole uh influencer world and and social media and how this whole thing is working and um the There's so many talented kids out there. You know, I got into social media immediately. As soon as Twitter happened, I got it. And I got out there and started, and I used to do my video blogs on YouTube where we, you know, do this whole behind-the-scenes thing. So I got the whole social media.

And now I see all these different kids out there, the creators, you know, like fucking Logan, who, again, is one of the guys. that was early on and big and all these kids that come to slap and stuff and it's cool to watch I'm fascinated by it what's your take on the in real life streaming so like when people come to the power slap event they're live streaming so you'll see now people are getting jumped everyone knows where they are I don't know if you paid attention to any of that like Steve just started doing it we flew to fucking Brazil did it in the favelas and it was absolute madness I knew you were there but you guys went into the favelas yeah
