Take center stage, and this time the vacant BNF title. is on the line as former interim lightweight champions, Justin Porreier and Justin Gagee collide in an expected fireworks-filled main event in Salt Lake City. In the co-made event,
Starting point is 00:02:34 former light heavyweight champion and the man who possesses the legendary Polish power, Jan Blahovic, welcomes a former middleweight champion to the 205-pound division in dangerous knockout artist Alex Herrera. Live from the Vox Studios, in beautiful New York City. This is the UFC 291 Watch Party.
Starting point is 00:02:57 Yes, we are back, everybody. The BMF title is indeed on the line. We are BMF out all over the studio. Look at GC, the real BMF here. Let's go, baby. Welcome to the UFC 291 watch party. If you can hear the excitement in our voices, I think it translates around the world right now,
Starting point is 00:03:18 not only because of UFC 299, which is an incredible pay-per-view main card. We got Spence Crawford. We got Super Rising 2. We got Bellator versus Rising 2. If you are a combat sports fan, I hope you got a good night's sleep. There's a lot of fights, a lot of action
Starting point is 00:03:34 to watch. But I am so excited for UFC 291. I am Mike Heck. That is G. Let's go, baby. Yeah, I mean, you said it, dude. It feels like one of those nights where, like, all eyes fall on the combat sports world. I got people that don't typically tune into combat sports texting me, asking
Starting point is 00:03:50 me, you know, who do I think is going to win this? Who do I think is going to win that? It just feels like a big night. It feels like a lot's happening. Not just in UFC, but in other realms as well. I'm hyped. We've been doing these watch parties since UFC 280. First what we did was October, and
Starting point is 00:04:06 there are certain cards where we kind of have to work at pumping ourselves up to getting there. I would say like 288, 289 are kind of good examples of that. Comment? 290 was like right in the middle. 286 was the loving card.
Starting point is 00:04:20 295. The John Jones one. 285 was easy. John Jones won. We were ready to go. Regardless. 287, we were ready to go. This is not one of those cards where we got to work.
Starting point is 00:04:30 2.91, ready to go. Ready to go, man. I mean, maybe like where we lack with stakes, you know, like there's no actual championship on the line tonight. Of course, one man will be getting silver wrapped around his waist, which is a big enough deal for me. Yon, Pereira, could be a number one contender fight, but obviously no title on the line there. What we lack in stakes, I think we make up with the quality, like how much of a bang are these fights are going to be. Unfortunately that we lost Pereira Thompson, but
Starting point is 00:05:01 listen, I'm cool with Derek Lewis and DeLima stepping up. I'm glad that they made that decision. Like, I think we are due for some violence in that one, like no matter what, even with the with the altitude and then being heavy weights, I think someone's going to get finished, so I still think it's going to be fun. I wouldn't be shocked if we got a finish on every fight on the main card. I wouldn't be shocked. I think it's possible for sure.
Starting point is 00:05:26 I mean, look, as someone who enjoys going back and looking at the reactions that we do the next day, if there's finishes, I would also like to see five finishes to see how goofy and ridiculous. I mean, I'm also like all in on each one of these fights. All of them are very interested in. Especially, I mean, now, like, having Tony Ferguson and Derek Lewis back-to-back to two beloved fighters who seem to be on the decline, on their way out, if they can pull something off, it'll be amazing.
Starting point is 00:05:59 So, yeah, I am very interested in then obviously the co-main in the main event takes zero selling. If you're not excited for those, I think Dustin Porier said it. If you're not excited for the main event, then you're not a fan of combat sports. If you're not excited for Mike's shirt, you've tuned into the wrong watch party. It's a great shirt, dude. It's a great shirt. I kind of like this shirt, when I lean forward and I put the hands like this, it doesn't even look like it. And then I can just spring to my feet and there we go.
Starting point is 00:06:25 We're strapped up with the BMF belt, baby. How is that? Let's go. You're silver around my waist. You're so well prepared. I didn't even like plan out the silver thing, but it works. It's nice. It's nice.
Starting point is 00:06:36 We got silver around the room here. I mean, we're feeling good. I'm repping the jazz. Shout out Salt Lake City. Yeah, man. So far, it feels like we haven't... Knock on wood. It feels like we haven't really faced, like, the death-gassing cardio issues that it seemed like we got at 278 last year.
Starting point is 00:06:55 But, yeah, five fights to go. Also, 11-fight card. Love that. Every game of you should be 11 fights. Big combat evening. It's nice to have 11 fights. You heard the melodious voice. already. Mysterious Frank.
Starting point is 00:07:12 How are you feeling about this card? Happy Saturday to you. Melodious? Yeah. Dude, the Co and the main that's why I'm here tonight. Yeah? Who are you picking in both fights? I'm very curious. It's not important. We'll get to that. Speaking of who's picking who? Chat bet?
Starting point is 00:07:28 We guys want to start off with the chat bet? Yeah, sure. You talked to me into it. Yeah, I said we throw 10 on the first one and then if we thought we'd mix it up and ask them how much you should put. What are the options? Well, it's $1,500 or $1,500. Yeah, let's go.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Kieza Holland. Let's do a chat bet. I'm looking to hit this gong more than once tonight. At BMF belt's on the line, the gong needs to be hit. A little disappointed that we didn't replace the gong with a silver gong instead of a gold one. I pushed hard for that. Unfortunately, Vox said, you know, we don't really have replacing the gong with a silver gong in the budget. but we do is make do.
Starting point is 00:08:08 I'm hoping to hit this thing more than once tonight. Yes, it's usually very electric when that happens. So we've had a lot of finishes so far. Miranda Maverick started it off. We had Priscilla Cachua doing what she does, likes to get in there and cheat a little bit, not a single point taken away for any of her actions, but Miranda Maverick gets the arm bar submission in the first round,
Starting point is 00:08:28 kind of an old school arm bar, full mountain. Oh, yeah. Working towards a great performance. Her stepping up to take that fight was perfect. on her and her team's part. Euros Medich and Matthew Semmelsberger, wild fight. What a finish from Euros Medich. Some people were not overly thrilled with the stoppage there,
Starting point is 00:08:47 maybe feeling like Semmelsberger didn't get enough time to recover. I think I understand where they're coming from, especially after the first round where Simmelsberger had them hurt a couple times. I mean, that's spinning back fist. That definitely had Simmelsberger hurt, so I understand where they come and phone. You were sitting here with me. I was sweating out a Simmel's Burger by knockout ticket. Man, he has, like, he has an affinity for knocking dudes down
Starting point is 00:09:13 and then not having, like, the follow-up, the wherewithal, the killer instinct to finish the fight. I think nine UFC fights for him. I want to say he has, like, 11 knockdowns and only two knockouts. So, yeah. Good, fun fight, though. Super fun fight. Yes, and then, as expected, Jake Matthews, Darius Flowers, delivered pure chaos. And this is chaos for Sinai.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Clean or no. Clean or no on the nutshot. To say, like, to, let's just be clear. Through the prelims, Joe Rogan had a tough night. It's had a tough night so far. Between not knowing Roman Copulov was a middleweight, calling out a guy in his own division, and then just letting that interview go on much longer than it should.
Starting point is 00:09:57 And just the, oh, come on, this should be a TKO. It looked clean. But there was contact with the below the belt regions. The main part of the force got like right here. But then like the heel hit him in the nuts. Something got him. Something got him. I was fine with it.
Starting point is 00:10:17 And the wars for the where Jake Matthews ends up getting to finish anyway. Yes. You cash that ticket. Darius Flowers in the first round gets hit hard. Starts wobbling around. The fake wobble. The fake wobble. Nice.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Nice from Darius Flowers there. Brilliant move from Darius Flowers. But Jake Matthews gets the. the rare naked choke win, and that fight was absolutely insane. Roman Coppulov, what a freaking head kick. God bless that. Second round Copulov is a bad dude. Another mythical fighter.
Starting point is 00:10:44 I think it was Jamal Hill tweeted out. What's up with this building in headkicks? I mean, another just beautiful. I think it was also a left-footed high head kick right to the ear. Flap. Pretty crazy. Yeah, knocked him clean out. Definitely did not need the hammer fist follow up.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Kind of was the ref jumped in there earlier. But either way, spectacular. K. C. C.G. Vergara now above 500 in his UFC run. The Flyweight under's just completely crushed. Don't even bring him out to me, please.
Starting point is 00:11:12 Thank you. Appreciate it. Haven't bet him in a while, not going to. It's a sensitive subject for me. And then Gabriel Bonfee, 15 and 0, 15 finishes. Adds to that incredible statistic
Starting point is 00:11:25 with a very easy, kind of squash-matchy-looking 73-second gilly on Trevin Giles. heard him real quick, ragdolled him to the ground, slapped on the gilly and just strangled Trevin Giles and this fight was a wrap real quick. Yeah, I think maybe after the McKinney fight, a lot of people were looking at Ishmael Bonfine.
Starting point is 00:11:45 I think Gabriel's the one to look at, man. He is insanely impressive. 170 pounds. How about Porre walking in, man? He's got the war hat on. He's ready to go, the red war hat, and just some nice flowers on the shirt, nice floral shirt.
Starting point is 00:12:00 Classic. Ready to go to the pool afterwards. but for now he's ready for war. Yep, and Jessica Gagee walked in with like an orange shirt that said bad on it. Just perfect. Yombehovic didn't even have the cowboy hat. Just rocking the smile. And sometimes that's all you need when you carry around the legendary Polish power.
Starting point is 00:12:19 But this card, this main card is excellent. Michael Kiesa, Kevin Holland, vote for the chat bet. Do you want Kesa? Do you want Kevin Holland? We'll get to the finish in a moment. Now we get Tony Ferguson, Bobby Green. We'll talk about that fight in a moment. we're supposed to get Stephen Thompson versus
Starting point is 00:12:33 Mitchell Pereira. Now we're getting Derek Lewis with abs taking on Marcus Regerio de Lima. Six-pack Lewis is crazy. Jan Belhovic, Alex Pereira, huge fight at 205 and then the main event, Dustin Porre versus Justin Gagee. Where do we start here before you get into this? Let's just start this main event, man.
Starting point is 00:12:52 I mean, it doesn't get any better. The BMF title, like, it's all over the studio. We talked about the main event on the preview show for like 40 minutes because we were just so faceted by all the angles and just the careers and the similarities these two guys have gone through over their last eight or so fights. And we barely mentioned the BMF title at all, because there's just about the fight. And you can care about the BMF title, but at this point, if you're just like, oh, the BMF title thing is stupid, then just don't care about it and just
Starting point is 00:13:23 care about the fight. Either way, we're getting a rematch from a fight of the year, two guys who are much better than they were five years ago when they fought. And there is so much on the line here. It's not just the silver, but maybe a last chance at the gold for both of these guys. Just the stakes are incredibly huge here with Islam Makachchev getting ready to fight Charles Olivera. What is at stake for these guys? And what happens to, I'm not going to say a loser, but the man who does not get his hand
Starting point is 00:13:53 raised because this is just going to be an incredibly competitive, exciting fight? Well, it's start with like the BMF belt being on the line and how you guys didn't talk about about it. I mean, if you're actually talking about the fight, of course, you're not going to talk about the BMF belt. Like, in all actuality, it does not matter. It really means nothing. And it's a, it's a trophy for their trophy case. And like, it's a cool thing to say, yeah, I won the BMF belt. But the stakes are pretty high for this fight.
Starting point is 00:14:18 I mean, there is a world where Justin Gichi loses in, like, he could potentially start talking about retirement. I mean, he said after his last one, his last fight that he's going to make one last run. at a UFC title and he needs to win this fight if he's going to have success doing so so yeah I mean to be a MF belt it's it's all in good fun like it's it's kind of almost fun to like joke about it and like it'll be cool for them to win it and be able to put it on the trophy case and then on the flip side of that if it makes you mad it's just like dude why like why does it bother you like it really doesn't matter like it I saw someone compare it to like the interim titles yeah I'll give more credit to the interim
Starting point is 00:14:54 title because it is essentially a number one contender fight but Like, it's, yeah, like, it's fun, dude. It's not that serious. Like, if you don't like it, just, who cares? Don't talk about it. But yeah, a lot of stakes in this fight, can't wait. And there's almost no world where, unless, like, a freak thing happens. Like, if these guys get to come out here and fight,
Starting point is 00:15:17 I just, like, don't see a world where we're not going crazy throughout the 25 minutes or however long it lasts. I don't even feel like I, like, this fight is going to deliver. Like even if it ends in 90 seconds, it is going to be an incredible 90 seconds. There's nothing throughout these guys' careers that has shown us that has given us any evidence that it's not going to deliver. Like, here's what I'll say. Like, there's, I've said this throughout the week. There is no chance that they come out and, like, it's like a staring contest or it's like they're just like leg kicking and it's like a lot of clenching.
Starting point is 00:15:52 Like, they're showing highlights from the last one right now. Like, it's them meeting in the middle and, like, swinging. it out. Like, maybe Porriere, like, he did try five takedowns in the last fight. Maybe he goes for the ground game. Like, I feel like he'll have an advantage if he can get it to the mount. We obviously saw him choke out, Michael Chandler, but like, it's going to be crazy. It's going to be
Starting point is 00:16:13 chaotic. It's going to be wild. Like, I can't wait for it, man. I'm so fascinated about what the first round's going to look like. That's the thing. People keep asking me who's going to win? I do not know, dude. I do not know. Like, flip a coin, and that is how you can decide. Like, any, if you feel super strongly on someone winning, in my opinion, like, it's kind of like you're, I feel like you're biased. Like, this is just, it's such a close fight.
Starting point is 00:16:39 So many different things can happen in it. There's not enough for me that's, like, separating either guy from each other. I really could not give you a confident pick. Yeah. I just feel like at this point, if you're going to actually bet on the fight and you're going to choose the side, you just choose the dude who has a plus next to his number. I took Dustin Porre just because I wanted some action and someone to cheer for in the fight. Yeah. He won the first one.
Starting point is 00:17:01 If BMF title wasn't on the line, I probably... Nah, never mind. These guys fighting on betting no matter what. These guys fighting on betting on it. Come on. 100%. That fight is so incredible. I have no idea what's going to happen.
Starting point is 00:17:12 I think we're going to get a tactical start to the fight and then someone's going to land a big shot. And then it should be like... On Cork. Yeah. And we're just going to get... Things are going to get... It's going to be sick. I can't wait, man.
Starting point is 00:17:23 I can't wait. I'm so friggin't excited. And then, like, dude, the co-main, oh, man, what's going to happen? This is another fight that it's just, like, people have asked me, like, whoa, what do I think is going to happen? Dude, I don't know. Is Young going to go to the wrestling?
Starting point is 00:17:35 Are they going to stand and strike? Like, how is Alex at 205? How is Alex three months removed from a bad knockout against Izzy? Like, there's just too many question marks around it, and I can't wait for those questions to get answered, man, because, like, there's a world where this, the co-main event is also super-duper sick. Like, there is a real world where it's awesome.
Starting point is 00:17:55 So I took everybody on a journey yesterday with this fight when I made my prediction. My prediction is... Let me hear this. We are going to end the first round, me, you and Shaheen, and we're going to be like, well, it's kind of what we expected from Jan Bolhovic, just got an early takedown, sat on Alex Pereira for a while, and just kind of slogged it out. And we're going to be right in 10-9 on the whiteboard. Round two is going to start.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Guess what's going to happen? Yon's going to get a takedown. again and we're going to be like oh boy but somehow some way Alex Pereira's going to get back to his feet and Jan's going to take a big deep breath and they're going to get after it and Alex is still not going to have a ton of success and then Jan's going to time a take down but at the same time as Alex Pereira times a flying knee right up the gut
Starting point is 00:18:43 right to the face, K.O. Alex Perrier round two is what I'm calling. No you want to know? Flying knee. I don't know if that's going to happen but what I want on my wish list is they come out here, they're striking for, you know, a minute, maybe 90 seconds, a couple hard shots land. Then Yon goes for a takedown. Alex Pryor stuffs it. Pushers him up against the fence.
Starting point is 00:19:07 They separate. Now it's in his head. Now Yon's like, oh, man, like that didn't work out for me. Like, now I have to strike with this dude. He goes for another one. He doesn't get it. And now we're looking at like a kickboxing match. And that's where things get really exciting.
Starting point is 00:19:20 And then I think we get a crazy fight that. ends in a finish. That's, that is my wish list. I am praying that this co-main in Maine live up to the hype because I am speaking of. Yes, yes, yes. Crazy fight the ins and a finish. The chat bet has spoken.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Okay, tell me. They are taking Kevin Holland by knockout. By knockout. All right. I mean, it's not that idea. One, been knocked out one time in his career? That's all it takes. Yep. It's about for a while. That is technically all it takes, Frank.
Starting point is 00:19:51 It can be done. Oh, of course. Of course it can be done. And they want you to slap 1.5 G's on that. Yeah, I got 1.5 G's for you. Let's try $15. How's that something? Ooh.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Meeting in the middle? I like it. Okay, all right. And when I said $15, I meant $10. I give the chat $10. I give them two bets. If we win, then we ride. They know how this works.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Sheesh. Kevin Holland by K.O. Plus 140. That's all we're getting that? I thought we're getting a little bit better than that. They're playing a little safe. All right. All right. Well, listen.
Starting point is 00:20:29 Michael Kiesa has lost via TKL once and it was a cut stoppage. Jesus, great. Against Joe Lozahn. Great, great, great. Great. We're locking that. And if it wins, then we'll be at chat funds. We'll be at 34.
Starting point is 00:20:43 We'll put everything on the co-made event. We'll let the chat decide. Okay. I like it. I like where we're at. So, Yanni Blacko versus Oxford. You know what would be a great. an incredible theater result.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Jan gets a takedown, and Alex Pereira slaps on a triangle and taps him in the first round. Like, that would just be absolutely bananas. That would be beautiful. Third fight, featured bout, now our featured bout, Derek Lewis, Marcos Roger de Lima.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Either way, I just think it's going to be a lot of fun. I think, dude, I really think someone's going to get finished. I think this, I think the later career, Derek Lewis, is in there to get or be got. And I think that's what's going to happen. And even if it gets, even if this goes long,
Starting point is 00:21:29 it's going to be ridiculous, yes. It's like, yeah, you're going to see me throwing things. I got a nice parlay finishing on the under two and a half. I said there's going to be one fight tonight that's going to salt lake city me. And it's going to, like, I'm going to have the under on it. And it's going to be like one of those ones that could have been finished 38 times throughout the fight.
Starting point is 00:21:47 And it just never did. And then it goes to just a sloppy, disgusting decision. Last year, Frank, I think you remember it well. Palo Costa, Luke Rockhold. Oh, yeah. That was like a pull-your-hair out one. I had the fight doesn't go through a decision. That was a bad one, man.
Starting point is 00:22:02 I think I'm going to have it here. Maybe it is that heavyweight fight, we'll say. That was a crazy war. Tony Ferguson's fighting on this card, too. It's fighting Bobby Green. Yeah, he is. He's lost five in a row. Yeah, he has.
Starting point is 00:22:15 But, I mean, the Nate Diaz won. if you want to throw out that I was just happy to grab a bag like I didn't care about the fight like if you want to sell me that like I'll kind of listen to you he was supposed to fight leech yeah totally different fight
Starting point is 00:22:30 and he was getting far less money to fight the leech then he got a big old bag to fight Nate in a main event on a day's notice so if you want to sell me on well he finally made a bag and he was just happy with that sure
Starting point is 00:22:46 the other loss is I mean, to the best freaking lightweights in the world. And it started with Justin Gachi and Charles Olivera and Binaldaryush and all these dudes that Tony's losing to. These are just the best of the best. Now he's getting Bobby Green.
Starting point is 00:23:00 And I have to say, this is really good matchmaking here. I like kind of both these guys where they're at in their careers fighting each other. This is a fight that I think could be very sad and very painful to watch
Starting point is 00:23:17 but it's a winnable fight for Tony I think it's a winnable fight No doubt Of course it's winnable It's just what What Tony Ferguson are we going to get here Are we going to get the one from You know
Starting point is 00:23:30 A little over a little A little over 40 months ago or so When he fought Justin Gachie Back in 2020 Or are we going to get the Tony Ferguson that fought Nate Diaz It's I mean it's a five-fight losing streak Over the course of
Starting point is 00:23:44 Of three years And during those three years, he's now almost 40. It's just, I mean, it's a super by-low spot on Tony Ferguson. Like, you say he can win the fight. Of course he can win the fight. Like,
Starting point is 00:24:01 he looked decent against Michael Chandler in the first round. Yeah. Like, he looked decent. You dropped him. Drop Chandler in the first round. What I think is likely going to happen is, is Bobby Green is going to put the pace on him and out-volume him over the course of the 15th. minutes. I mean, Tony Ferguson is super
Starting point is 00:24:19 durable. Like, other than the Neadee. Diaz submission, like, it is very hard to put this guy out. Very hard. I mean, it took Michael Chandler like separating him from his consciousness to put him out. So I don't know, like, Bobby Green is not like the most prolific finisher.
Starting point is 00:24:36 Unless he's fighting, like, the ally Quinta one is really the only one that comes to mind, and that was Iaquinta at the very, very end of his career. Yeah. I feel like, I feel like this goes to a decision, I feel like it's Bobby Green out striking him 180 to 110 and winning 29, 28. So my official, my MA fighting staphic is Tony Ferguson by decision. Because I do think this is a, it's a value play because I feel like the fight should be lined
Starting point is 00:25:08 closer. And if this does go to the cards, sure, there could be a chance. It's like a 3027 Bobby green just exactly the way you shape it where he just outstrikes Tony by like 11 to 12 strikes in every round but if Tony just comes out guns blazing and just puts a pace on Bobby yeah and starts to grind him a little bit and do weird stuff and throw the sand and start to flow a little bit he can win and I feel like the altitude actually could help Tony in this fight it's a strong is a chance there is also a world that we have to recognize is a real possibility that Tony Ferguson has passed his prom.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Oh, he's definitely past his prom. I mean, of course. I'm trying to say this nicely. There's a world where he's washed and he goes out there and like Bobby Green puts it on him and T-KOs him. And it's just like, all right, it's time for Tony to be done.
Starting point is 00:26:01 Like, it could happen. Like, Bobby Green is lined like a minus 400 now, which is... I agree. I agree. It's a little crazy. Like, a little crazy. He is 36.
Starting point is 00:26:10 It's not like Bobby Green and is 29 on like a seven-fight win streak. Like, he's... He's had three weird fights the last time out, obviously, the clash of heads, looking great against Drew Dober until he wasn't. And then obviously the Islam Makhashab on two weeks notice. Everyone knew what was going to happen in that fight. He stood next to no chance. So, yeah, like he's kind of in a weird spot, 36 years old, not really like a top 15 guy, but also not bottom of the barrel by any means.
Starting point is 00:26:40 So, yeah, it's interesting, dude. Like I said, it feels like every one of these fights, I have a ton of question marks around them. And we're about to find out and get those questions answered. And I'm willing, and I'd be willing to like take a chance on two of these judges not knowing what they're watching. Yeah. Because that's, I mean, that's what happens in a lot of Bobby Green fights.
Starting point is 00:27:00 A lot of Bobby Green fights go to splits. And a lot of people feel like Bobby Green wins some of these fights and you lose. It almost always aligns with Bobby Green, like, stats-wise, like it looks like he should have won the fight. I mean, the Drew Dober fight, before he got knocked out, he was outstriking him by a significant margin. Kevin Holland entering the Octagon. We are awaiting Michael Kiesa.
Starting point is 00:27:24 I know we're like fawning over Dustin Boree and Justin Gachey. Typically when Kevin Holland gets in the Octagon, it's a pretty good time. Oh, yeah. He's just great personality. Just says yes. Dude just wants to make money. There are certain fighters, like Kevin Holland is in the Derek Loo. category, where rankings don't matter, wins and losses don't matter, title contention doesn't
Starting point is 00:27:49 matter. Game is game comes, is down to scrap and is usually going to put on a really exciting fight. Michael Kiesa walking out to 10. Nugent says he typically does. I love the talking. I love the hoodie. I love the hood up. Looks like he's ready to go. Hat on. Yeah. Looking good, man. I say while we await this, let's play a little trivia. We got a little bit trivia here. Frank, are you excited? You ready to play some trivia? I cannot contain myself. I mean, geez, please, Frank.
Starting point is 00:28:20 Does Michael Keyes? Was that the Italian flag? Does he usually rep that on his uni? I don't know. He hasn't fought in a while. So this is probably the first time wearing the Venom gear. Oh, true. And he's got the green, white, and red shorts, though.
Starting point is 00:28:33 He's got the salt and pepper in the beard. Looks good, man. Looks good, dude. We're rocking the Stockton Jersey. this week. Shout out. All right. Frank, I'm going to start with you. A little multiple choice here. Thank you. So this card, it's the third time the UFC has held an event in Utah. We obviously had 278 with Leon Edwards winning the Walterweight title in incredible fashion. But the first time it happened was August 2016, UFC Fight Night 92. Who won the main event of that fight night card?
Starting point is 00:29:04 Was it A, C. C. C. C. Alistar Overeuxan. This is B. Conor? I'm going to say C. Alistair Overim. I mean, the confidence in Frank here. And well done with the confidence. It was Yaira Rodriguez. Nice, nice, right? Split decision win over Alex Kassaris.
Starting point is 00:29:26 2016? 2016. Wow, man, I'm not going to lie. I thought main event Yair year 2016 was a little too early. Yeah, point for Frank. We go over to GC now, try to even up the score. Dustin Porreier was part of the lightweight boat that had the most combined strikes landed.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Who was his opponent? Was it Dan Hooker? I just give it to him. Justin Gaichy or Max Holloway. I'm going to say Max Holloway, but I feel like that's bait. I feel like that's a trap. Frank?
Starting point is 00:30:01 Well, I'm biting the trap. It's C. Max Holloway. He's going to Dan Hucker. Yeah. It is indeed Dan Hook. Did he just change his answer? No. Tell the tape.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Let's run the tail of the tape. They're in the octagon. I knew it. I knew it was a trap. 390 combined strikes landed in that fight. Tail the tape, though. There we go. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:30:21 We'll save the other two trivia questions. Here we go. First time tonight. Bruce Buffer's jacket is absolutely incredible. What is it? What's going on there? I don't know. It's fantastic.

Starting point is 00:30:46 Here we go. Kevin Holland only being 30 is. That's insane. It's funky in my head. Michael Cassabian 35 is kind of wild. Yeah. This should be like a 33 versus 32 type matchup. Yeah.

Fort Worth, shout out. minus 145 favorite he closes that 11 and 3 as a favorite in the UFC man he's minus 145 in his knockout was only plus 140 yeah I thought it would be higher I'm on the under 2 and a half though hopefully we can hit the chat and my own we'll see though draft king sportsbook a lot of action on UFC 299 tonight yeah yeah a lot of people that don't bet on fights are betting on flights tonight for sure.

Starting point is 00:33:50 Wow, we're really getting comfortable here. Yeah, it's not man spread somewhat. It's on the broadcast. Oh, big uppercut by Holland. Oh, oh, Gians. Oh, Gians. it feels like he's hurt.
Starting point is 00:34:00 Guess is super durable though. Yes, wow. Nice. Look at that chin. He really, he really did look hurt. He's fine. Almost looked like he was panic wrestling a little bit.
Starting point is 00:34:08 It's really tough to be. Oh, man. He's upper-cund. Oh, he dropped him. He looked like he tried to pull guard. Yeah, it might have. It didn't really work. Holland's going,
Starting point is 00:34:16 Hamza on him. Is Holland going to stay here with him, though? Wow, he is holding on tight. Yes, that is. Little butterflies. Ooh, we're trying to work in. arm. Oh.
Starting point is 00:34:29 Kevin said he was like, I'm going to grab. Oh, oh, some nice shot by Keisa. Sneaky. All right. Oh, I thought he was going to shoot there. He's long, bro. Kevin Holland, I mean, we knew it, but it feels like the length is really showing here. The striking discrepancy is just, it's humongous for Holland, but guess it's a dog.
Starting point is 00:34:54 Kessa may be knocking a little bit of rust off here. Yeah, I mean, I remember that fight against Sean Brady, October, November of 2021. Yeah, it was a while ago. Yeah. It's been a minute. There's a tough start to that fight for Kiesa, and then he got some momentum with her. Yep, here we go.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Kiyasa, single, switching to a double. Ooh, Kevin, thus far. Bro, how one is working those uppercuts? As soon as Kianza starts shooting, he's going for those uppercuts. Kevin Allen talking to it. Kiasa smiling. That's such a crazy-ass thing.
Starting point is 00:35:27 Oh, almost a trip. Were these guys in a commercial? No, Kiasen engaged you. Shout out, shout out. Damn, and Wonderboy was supposed to be on the card, too? We would have had the whole crew. I know. The whole, oh, knee.
Starting point is 00:35:39 Oh, fine, knee from Kevin Holland. Damn. Kessa's good to go. Ooh, some nice shot from Kesa. Oh, huge name. Kiyos is. Oh, he's a dors. No way!
Starting point is 00:35:55 He's got a d'Rce. He's definitely a way. Kiyahsa's been subbed many times. He tapped! Wow! We got the tip! Oh, the chat bet. That's all right.
Starting point is 00:36:04 We cast the other $2 a half. Too bad. That's all right. That's all right. Wow. That's all we put 10 on the chat. Kevin Holland. Subbing Michael Kiesa.
Starting point is 00:36:18 What was the line on that? It wasn't that crazy, man. Kierza's been subbed like five times. I know. And Holland's got a nice sub. Plus like $3.75? Yeah, yeah. It was probably fun.
Starting point is 00:36:29 I can find out for you right now. Damn. Good performance. Way to go chat. Fun ass, fun ass fight. Fun ass fight. That was really fun. Good stuff.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Let's see, let's see. Let's see. Kevin Holland by submission was... Dant-dan-da-da-da-da-ha-ha-she. She's right, bro. 500 on Draft Kings. Couldn't have done that, chat, huh? Is Kiesa taking the gloves off?
Starting point is 00:36:59 I wonder what they're saying. They're just talking. A lot of respect being passed back and forth here, but Gess has taken the tape off of his gloves. Yeah. And I asked this question, I think, on our previous show, maybe he was on BTL. And he was huge, man. If Kiesa gets finished, would he retire?
Starting point is 00:37:16 And I know he's on the MMA hour and put out a compelling case that I got a lot of gas left in the tank. I got more to go and all of that. But there just comes a point where you're like, I'm not going to win a world title. I'm probably not even going to fight for one at this point. Kiyasa's got an incredible future in this sport as a broadcaster. I was going to say many. He's waiting for his opportunity to get in the booth and call fights. 35 years old, he's lost a couple fights now in a row.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Three. Three in a row. Obviously, the layoff was, what, 20 months. Now he's lost another one. First round finish. The broadcast booth is calling. So good, too. I wouldn't blame him.
Starting point is 00:37:57 The gloves are off. I don't know. I mean, but sometimes they just take the gloves off these days. The gloves are just coming out more and more. Getting a little sweating. Yeah, you're a little sweaty, Frank. Yeah. Get a little sweaty.
Starting point is 00:38:16 All right. True or false, Kevin Holland's going to call it Jack Delamattelana. Is this part of the trivia? I mean, I love that. So he's going to call him out. He needs to. Love the idea of that. It's just there.
Starting point is 00:38:32 Like, there's Holland wanted the fight. Oh, no, Gius is gone. He just, like, sprint out of there? It looked like he tried to sprint out the back and they guarded him. They were like, no, no, no, no. Use the other door, man. Oh, all right, all right, all right. There you go. Kevin Holland. Twelve first round finishes.
Starting point is 00:39:02 30 years old. Just getting in the prime. Oh, man. Good performance from Kevin. Tough night for Kiesa. He had moments where he, like, landed a couple of shots, but this was the Kevin Holland show. It was fun. Like, Kiesa is scrappy and he's durable. But there was not a lot of offense from Kiesa in this fight at all. It was the Kevin Holland show. Also, I know Kevin Holland had been finished in two straight fights.
Starting point is 00:39:28 No, no, no, because he did the Ponzo Nibio fight. Yeah. I know he got finished. Most people keep forgetting about that. I know he got finished by Wonderboy and by... Hamzot. Hamzot. The Hamzot was like, dude, the guy was there for a check.
Starting point is 00:39:40 Like, obviously not the matchup. He was anticipating. That's, like, that's difficult Hamzot on one day notice. And then the Wonder Boy, dude, like, he legit had to kill this. man, to get him out of here. Like, Kevin Holland's durability is insane. This was a tall task for Michael Kiesa. And, yeah, Kevin Holland showed out, man.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Yeah, it's a tough fight to come back to. I'd like to apologize to the chat. For some reason in my head, I thought the, I had just said Holland by a finish. Not specifically, yeah, K.O. So when I kept saying, good job, chat. I wasn't being sarcastic. I just misunderstood.
Starting point is 00:40:14 Oh. I thought you just messed it up, and they told me to take Holland inside the distance. No, that would be, I mean, revisionist history, that would agree, but. Sorry, we still got the co-main event. We're throwing a couple shekels here, just a couple nickels and dimes
Starting point is 00:40:28 to have a little fun with the chat. It's okay. They've won us more than they've lost us. Let's keep that in mind. Oh, yeah. Before you go hounding the chat again, Frank, take it easy over there, man. I just apologize.
Starting point is 00:40:38 Remember how much they've won? And listen, it's... Remember the Israel out of Sonia knockout at UFC 27? You hit the gong? You hit the gong like three times. I mean, that was one of the chat's finest moment we had to say,
Starting point is 00:40:47 Because we were rolling already, so it was like $40. We started with $10, and then it was like $40 on like a plus $475. Great moment for the chat. Take it easy on them, Frank, all right? You're not even the one putting the green down, all right? Put it easy on it. Just take it easy on them. Mark Ingram in the building.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Shout out. Macy Barber. Your favor, Frank. You love her. Not as much as Belal-Mahman. Belal-Maham. Let's go. Belal getting booed out of the building.
Starting point is 00:41:13 Brad Evans. Rashad Evans getting the cheer. There's Byra Buenos Silva. Sitting in this to your right favor. And there's Tony Ferguson. He's warming up. He's warming up. Fergutardot.
Starting point is 00:41:26 Wow. Trojan, protect yourself at all times. Wow. Now that is branding and sponsors. That is branding. That is branding. Wow. Frank, how do you feel about this fight?
Starting point is 00:41:35 We got Tony Ferguson and Bobby Green. I think Bobby takes it. You think Bobby takes it? Why? Yeah. What's your technical breakdown of this fight? So Bobby's going to hit him. And Tony's going to be like, damn, it's just been hit.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Is that a laugh track? That's going to happen a couple times. I was going to win. All right. Hey, listen. Look a beautiful Salt Lake City. The best. Can we get a view of the lake, though?
Starting point is 00:42:01 Have you been there? No. Is there an actual salt lake in the city? Yes. And it's very salty. I've been to the airport. I had a layover before International Flight Week last year. Never been.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Never been. Just looks nice at the airport. Just mountains on the other side. If I was in Utah, I'd rather go to like Moabab. Yeah, Moab would be cool. Yeah. Uris Medes just shouted out, Salt Lake City after his winter.
Starting point is 00:42:22 He wants to move there. 30 minutes of the skiing, 30 minutes to the golfing. Supposed he's a big snowboarder. Apparently, though, it's been like overrun by tourists. Oh, so like it's gotten exponentially higher ever since COVID,
Starting point is 00:42:37 and the city's actually suffering because they're like, we don't have enough employees to keep like all of the services up. Wow. It's crazy. And then like it's really noisy because people are like four-wheeling all the time and there's just a there's a flip side
Starting point is 00:42:49 to like the adventure lifestyle. Wow, this uh, you're a lot of watch for Frank Fax. Outstanding. Frank Fax. I'm almost starting to feel guilty about purchasing a jazz hat. I don't even want to support them in any way. I don't want to overrun their tourist department. Yes. Ah, yes. In a white contender series, baby.
Starting point is 00:43:08 Yeah, I was going to say, in case you couldn't get enough of the mixing of the martial arts. Yes, we got contender series. We got to have the Ultimate Fighter. I think the Ultimate Fighter is still beyond that week. Yeah. That'll be the last one. So we'll have Ultimate Fighter.
Starting point is 00:43:23 We'll have Contender Series leading into the Ultimate Fighter. Can you think of a better Tuesday night? Can you think of a better Tuesday night? I mean, as much silent Apex as we can get. If you watch the last episode of Tough, you're a real one. I can tell you that much. So you get silent Apex twice on Tuesday. No fans.
Starting point is 00:43:42 And you get Silent Apex that Saturday. I'll argue this fine. I like Daniel White Contender Series better because it's more just like straight into the fights and it's live. Like we're watching the fights happen then and there. Okay. I, the contenders,
Starting point is 00:44:00 the first two seasons of the Contender Series, it was like my favorite thing that UFC had ever done. Yeah, it's definitely not my favorite thing. I was so excited. I loved it. I enjoyed paper views a little bit more. I loved the fact that Dana really cared.
Starting point is 00:44:12 Yeah. And it was just like, all right, we want the best dudes outside of the company in our company. And then it just became, well, now you just have to win so we can sign you to a 10-10 deal. And it's just like, come on, man. And then the Bejo Piper thing, I'm like, we're changing.
Starting point is 00:44:29 Oh, big pop. Sorry, big pop for Tony Fers. It's Tony time. It is Tony time, ladies and gentlemen. But, yeah. So, I mean, it's become very watered down to me. Okay, I see what you're signing. Like, first couple of seasons, like, maybe one person got a contract, maybe two.
Starting point is 00:44:44 like certain guys they brought in and all they had to do is, like Sean O'Malley, all he had to do was waiting and get a contract, but he ended up not going to do it up and Snoop Dogg was doing commentary. Oh, shout out. Yeah, and then it just began, oh, there we go. Look at Tony Ferguson, baby.
Starting point is 00:45:02 In the sunglasses, it's looking great, man. He looks every bit of 39 right now. Dude, I'm actually going to be honest with you. There was one video that got posted from his presser, and I thought there was like a like a face like an age app thing on like he really like he is definitely
Starting point is 00:45:21 looking age. I think there was one video that I saw where there definitely was okay maybe I got fooled I might have gotten fooled did I get home? He looks like 44 that would look like he looks like 58 I can't keep up with the internet anymore damn it dude he looks
Starting point is 00:45:37 he looks 39 there for sure sunglasses look great though do you have a bet on this fight? I did I took Bobby Green a while ago. Like, I thought the line. I took them at like minus 210. Draft Kings for some reason open. Tony Ferguson is the favorite.
Starting point is 00:45:52 Didn't get in there. I know a couple people that are sitting on like Bobby Green plus one tens. I'd feel pretty good about that. I got in at minus 210. Last second money. I felt like that was still good. Yeah, what are we at? Bobby Green's down to a minus 360.
Starting point is 00:46:06 Plus 295 for Tony Ferguson. Lowest I've seen him all week. Yeah, a lot of people were like telling me. They were like, yeah, I don't know how I don't have any money on Tony Ferguson. And I was like, well, he has, you know, he has lost five straight fights. We're not wasting any time. We are already in walkouts from the second fight. I love this.
Starting point is 00:46:22 I love this. Quick update on Spence Crawford here. Round six of the co-main event. Okay. So we're at least in that, we're probably... A minute. We're probably at least an hour. Yeah, an hour to 90 minutes.
Starting point is 00:46:36 Can you hit the fast forward button? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let me just do that real quick. So we got at least another, like, 20 minutes in this fight if it goes to a decision. and then, I mean, the walk-ups are going to take fucking... Here comes Bobby Green. Ever in that one. Here comes Bobby Green.
Starting point is 00:46:52 He's giving away gear. Wow, look at him, bro. He really is giving away gear. Sheridan was before he even got to the docks. He's got the... He looks ready to go, man. Frank, we get two more trivia questions. Oh, yes, the team.
Starting point is 00:47:05 We're going to do a little Price's right action, Frank. You ready? That is my jam. All right. Closest to the number wins. Three fighters on this card are in the top ten. for most fight night bonuses in UFC history. They are Dustin Porreier, Justin Gage,
Starting point is 00:47:19 and the man who is about to make the walk, Tony Ferguson. How many total bonuses have those three fighters won combined? 17. G.C. 18. I mean, this guy's been watching the prices right all along. Because all you needed was just to be higher than 17, and you get it. The correct answer is 35.
Starting point is 00:47:46 35, so GC is closer. I thought you said what is half of the amount. Frank said 17? He said 17. I mean, I have been watching the prices right. I'm not going to lie, Frank. Well done. I zoned out, man.
Starting point is 00:47:59 I didn't even hear your answer. That was just surprising. I did real math in my head and I thought 18, I was halfway there. Poree has... What's good of Vegas. I'm a clown. It's good of a lot. We start counting cards, dude, when I zone out like that.
Starting point is 00:48:11 Porre with 13, Gatje and Ferguson, each with 11. So 35. Last question. There will be no multiple choice here, GSIZ. Okay, wait a minute. No multiple choice. Good. Maybe G.C. will set it up for you.
Starting point is 00:48:25 Derek Lewis could make some history tonight, Jesse. He could break the record for the most knockout victories in UFC history tonight. Yes. He's currently tied with somebody who is still active in the company. Who is he tied with? for most knockouts in UFC history. I'm not going to get it. I'm not going to get it.
Starting point is 00:48:46 Crawford. Crawford? Yep. No. Oh. I'll give you a hint. Dustin Porre. It's not Dustin Porre.
Starting point is 00:48:54 Frank, you want to take a guess? I know that's wrong. What did you say? Crawford? Yeah. What did the fuck out of it? Charles Olivera. That's wrong.
Starting point is 00:49:03 Matt Brown. Matt Brown. I knew it was someone that had been around forever. You said most. I almost said Jim Miller. I knew that was going to be right. Frank is on fire. He's got the audience back there.
Starting point is 00:49:12 I mean, what is this? He's got a whole room of people laughing behind me. It's like I'm watching Home Improvement. This is ridiculous, dude. This is ridiculous. Right. Also, I have to say, I alerted the staff in the back. I just wanted to make you aware of it.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Didn't hit my, hit my, like, drink. I've been drinking a lot today, staying hydrated. It's hot out there in that New York heat. Might have overdone it. This could be the first watch part. where I have to make a B-line to the bathroom. Okay, listen. It happens.
Starting point is 00:49:46 I have to tell you, I thought about, I thought about this a lot after the 290 watch party is, I was hurting in a number of ways. That was one of the things I was hurting from.
Starting point is 00:49:58 It just felt like it was never going to happen that the car was never going to end. Yes. When we were in like the fourth round of that fight, I was like, oh my God, we still have. We still have.
Starting point is 00:50:09 We still have. I was like, I'm not going to make it, dude. It was hot in here. I was like, kind of dizzy. My stomach hurt. I hope that didn't go out over the airway. I was like, when packs are being ripped, I think that might be my opportunity.
Starting point is 00:50:24 Yes, that would actually be, yeah. I think this is the one where I'm going to have to take a sprint. I think Till of a tape is a good spot to run the bathroom. Oh, what is this? This guy's directing now? I mean, you think we don't see? Elkaku is making his way into the octagon. We have to take this.
Starting point is 00:50:36 Sure, run the tape. No, I said you can run to the bathroom down. Run the tape. Dude, you can direct this thing, man. Go ahead. On the tape, dude. Sure that. Everybody's going to chair for you.
Starting point is 00:50:44 We weren't going to set it up. We weren't going to set up Tony Ferguson, potentially maybe last fight. Who knows, we weren't going to set up the tail of the tape. But yeah. We had the lap track. Now it's like any time Frank has an idea, it's going to be like Al Bundy walking toward him. Is there a bunch of mysterious? A bunch of mysterious Frank.
Starting point is 00:50:59 Yeah, 2016 for Tony Ferguson, 29141, Bobby Green. Why are you sound like the Bar Rescue voiceover guy? Bobby Green is coming at. Five pounds. Big. Five half reach advantage for Albedo Lee. These guys look like they're ready to scrap, man. Bobby Green looks like you really wants to punch Tony Hous in the face.
Starting point is 00:51:18 I think he's probably about to do that too. There we go. Are we gonna get the knee swipe? Are we gonna get the knee swipe? Spitting everywhere. The pick there? I love it. The throwing sand?
Starting point is 00:51:28 Spitting everywhere. Chugging them all over the Octagon. We already beat you. The tale of takes on the broadcast, we already did it. They don't have a Frank. I mean, dude, he looks alright. Like, he looks all right. He looks at, like, he looked pretty good on the scale.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Are we going to get the knee swipe? But this stuff has never been an issue with Tony. Like, even during the losses, like, we never looked at Tony. He was like, man, physically, it looks awful. It's just when he fights. We're getting Bobby Chance or Tony Chance or both? No, I think there's been Tony. Those have to be Tony.
Starting point is 00:52:03 There's no way we're getting Bobby Chance. But I think people really like him, too. I mean, yeah, Judy. I mean, typically, uh, typically Bobby Green puts on pretty exciting fights as well. Like, you remember Bobby Green
Starting point is 00:52:17 Mountedal for Zee? Yeah, that was a sick one. That was a sick one. Bobby, yeah, look at Bobby Green, cutout fans, but like, yeah. Are we gonna get in? There's Tony.
Starting point is 00:52:30 Uh, I think that, oh, he goes for it. Yeah, look. Yes, he looked great. He looked great doing it. They, dude. I'm, I am now, I'm nervous.
Starting point is 00:52:41 I'm nervous about that. I'm nervous about the Bobby Green bed now. It's getting a little sweaty, all right? I didn't expect, dude, I was gonna feel better if he didn't go for it. He went for the knee slot and he looked great, doing it. He went post to post? That was, Tony might be back.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Tony might be back, dude. Did he just cough? He looks like, he's casual in there. He's just like, he just threw out a little cough. He's like, just let me clear my throat. I'm good to go. It's like he did it on ice. He just glided.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Dude, well, have you seen it where, I think it was the last fight. He stumbled and like he kind of had a hard getting up. Yeah. Oh, here we go. I'm nervous. Like, one customer is 7,500 to win 30K.
Starting point is 00:53:20 Come on, Bobby. I might lose. Maybe that's why. Maybe that's right for Bobby Green. Yes. That's I established earlier. Here we go. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:53:29 This is like one of those fights where I don't really know what to do with my hands. I don't want to watch like this. I just have no idea what's going to happen. I feel like Tony's got something in him there. Look at that. Oh, Bobby Green charges in right away. Bobby Green isn't the most defensively sound guy. Oh, he tried a little ankle pick, and then you got a left hand right to his ear.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Sad. From Bobby Green. Look at that beard. The beer is cool. Tony does look kind of old, though, in the face. I mean, he is old, dude. He's about to turn 40. Not that 40 is old, but in the fight game.
Starting point is 00:54:01 Come on now. In the fight game. Oh, I don't even sneaky little left from Bobby Green there. Yes. Oh. Tony's trying. Yeah, I mean, this range right now is not where Tony wants to be. If we're just going to stand and...
Starting point is 00:54:20 Oh, takeout attempt. He's got his back. Tony's got his back. He's got a hookin. He's got a hookin. Bobby Green defending nicely. This is exactly what Tony needs to do. Yeah, hell yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:32 Look at him. Exactly what he needs to do. He needs to push over his defense. Oh, I thought he was going to get it out of him. I was going to get it there. No, that's a nice little sign from Tony there. That's what he's got to do. game plan.
Starting point is 00:54:44 So Bobby did defend the takedown. Lens a nice jab, and we're back in the center. Tony switching center. Ooh, a little left hook to the body from Tony. Oh, right hand from Tony. But Bobby Green just leg kick, punch to the face. Look at it. Let's go Tony Chanson in the Delta Center.
Starting point is 00:55:04 Shout to Delta Great Airline. The best. Nice. Real ones now. Nice. I didn't even know what was called the Delta Center. No, they did high. Delta means change.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Oh. Franks. Franks facts, let's go. Yeah, we need like the more you know theme song. Oh, nice for the left hand. Tony. All right. Bobby's going to return it.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Tony's not doing bad, man. Two minutes into this fight. See? He's not going to pass. Oh, left hand just misses from Tony Ferguson. Bobby Green fights with his hands in his pockets. Oh, yeah. Oh, right hand from Ferguson.
Starting point is 00:55:44 Okay. Tony's busted up. That knows is leaving bad from the nose. Good combination from Bobby Green. Oh! Get up, he dropped him! Holy smokes.
Starting point is 00:55:59 No, he dropped them. No, dude. Tony definitely dropped him. He smooched his face. Holy shit. Wow, but Bobby Green gets me. Oh, no, dude. Bobby Green might want to be a little more defensively sound.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Oh, no. iPop? Is it iPok? Hipo? No. Dude. Oh, Bobby Green ain't gonna get cheered anymore. All right, we got an eye poke.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Can we get, I don't need to see the replay of the eye poke. Oh, geez. Oh, yeah, got them bad. Got the middle finger right. Yeah, you got a knuckle full. I want to see the knot. Please tell him he's going to be okay, dude. That was huge.
Starting point is 00:56:42 Even if Tony's not okay, he's going to say he is. I can't believe that, dude. What's the knee swipes hit? It was a whole new ball game. It was a whole new ball game. This is crazy. Now he gets a knockdown in round one. Now, if you're feeling, by the way, do we have whiteboards?
Starting point is 00:57:02 Oh, yeah, they're right behind you. Oh, yeah. I'll get them. While we get them. This is a living room feeling. While we have the eye poke type off. Oh, yeah, well, you can just grab something out the mini fridge. Don't worry about it.
Starting point is 00:57:10 Just give the guy a pirate patch. Let's go back on. Let's take a look and see if there is live odds for this bad boy. I'll tell you what. Could be a good little hedge. A little hedgy poo. Internet not wanting to cooperate. Great. Of course.
Starting point is 00:57:23 Switch networks. You know, definitely don't need the internet or anything to see the Tony live odds. Are you still watching the Crawford and suspense? I'm keeping an eye on it. Keep an eye on it. Now I'll watch it. Okay, it's too soon. Let Tony get readjusted before you making the eye jokes.
Starting point is 00:57:38 Oh, he's got three and a half minutes. Oh, wow, Frank. Good man. Good man. Tony, like, dude, there's no way Tony's going to be like, nah, stop this fight. I'm sure. You got five minutes, Tony. Take them.
Starting point is 00:57:51 Tony Ferguson down to a plus one fit. That was huge. That was huge. Oh, all right. Tony still looks like he's shaking out the eye pain. Bobby Green saying something to him. Sorry, man, didn't need a poker in the eye. I'm gonna punch you in the face. Oh, nice kick, nice kick. All right.
Starting point is 00:58:13 Interesting tactic from Bobby. Going with the oblique kicks. Dude, I don't know. Oh, good left hand for Bobby. Oh, a nice little return from Tony. turn from Tony. All right. That crazy fighting slouts. He's moving weird. Oh, nice combo.
Starting point is 00:58:32 All right. Tony moving. Misses with a big, I mean, he tried to kick a field goal there and be missed. Oh, nice little combo. Yeah. Oh, good right hand from Ferguson. Okay. Bobby laying a nice left hand. Oh, right in the face. Oh, nice kick to the body from Bobby.
Starting point is 00:59:02 You're really big on Bobby here, huh? Just saying. Dude, he's putting this one-two together. And dodging. Yeah. I like the side kick to the body. The body stuff's really smart. That's what you need to do.
Starting point is 00:59:21 You've got to break them up a little bit. Wow, the difference in strikes landed is pretty jarring. Tony does have kind of the Bobby Green thing. Tony does a knockdown. Oh, of course, of course, of course. Yeah, I mean, that was by far the most consequential moment of the round. 30 seconds to go. Let's go Tony Chance.
Starting point is 00:59:40 Oh, nice right hand from Tony. Oh, Bobby landed a nice left. Oh, another nice. For Bobby Green. Oh, man. From Bobby. Man, when Bobby's, when Bobby's landing, Tony doesn't like it.
Starting point is 01:00:11 But I don't know. What do you think? Like, he dropped them. He did drop him, but. But, man, I feel like Bobby had a lot of success. Or did he slip? No, come up, right? Well, we're going to see.
Starting point is 01:00:22 I know you're a newly announced. I'm just saying. Bobby dream die hard. It's, Tough round to score, man. But you gotta put something down. I'm gonna write all my scores left-handed tonight. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Okay. We'll do something new. We already have a hard time reading your chicken scratch. I'm gonna give it to Bobby Green. I just think, I sure there's a knockdown, but I just don't know. Here's what I'm gonna bet on. I don't think there's any way all three judges are aligned on the first round. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:56 I'm gonna go FERG, 10-9. Tony, my decision is still live-in-line. I'm gonna go FERG 10-9 for sure. I say for sure. Even though I just can't just, I mean, it was really, like if he didn't drop him, that's like a no-question Bobby Green round in my eye. The I poke definitely made a difference.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Bobby Green minus 285 on the live line. Yep. Okay. I mean, that kind of feels like, you know. Tony got a little bit of love. Tony got a little bit of love. Better than when he started out. Yeah, that I poke was a game changer.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Dropped them. He dropped them. He was getting going. Dropped them. Then the I poke happened. It didn't feel like Bobby Green was getting going. Fancy little kick there. Oh, goes for a take-out.
Starting point is 01:01:37 All right, Bobby defense. Saw that come from my way. Oh, nice combo, too, by Bobby there. Yep. Bobby's starting to flow. Tony's got to do something. He's got to do something to get a little respect here
Starting point is 01:01:48 because Bobby has none for him right now. You got to get a little, yeah, you got to keep a little respect, bro. You already got dropped. Got to push him against the cage, man. Like, yeah, turn this into a grime. Nice little head juke.
Starting point is 01:02:09 Yep. Yeah, nice little head juke. I'm with you there, Frank. That movement's not bad. Like, he's getting hit. I don't know. Oh, okay. This is an interesting.
Starting point is 01:02:17 Quite the tape down. I don't even know what to call that. Oh, self-take-down. Oh, could be a triangle from Ferguson. Like, he's got to just be going. So he basically did something insane. He's eating punches. He's getting walloped right now.
Starting point is 01:02:30 Winning absolutely battered on the ground right now. This is not where he's from Bobby Green. He's going to have to throw up something crazy. I feel like the triangle is like right there. Bobby's just... Oh, he almost had it! No. No.
Starting point is 01:02:47 I mean, yeah, Bobby Green is having a lot of success here. Yep, yeah. This was his choice to take it to the ground. Yeah, I don't think it was a good move by Tony. I mean, he's getting... But he's always live for a wild submission there. Dars Night Rises? Good, hey, look.
Starting point is 01:03:05 Do we already see one Darts tonight? Oh, getting fancy, getting weird! And it looks like half-dark for Bobby. Tony's yeah I mean if I'm Bobby just yeah just like get up dude oh big right hand for Bobby Bobby yeah this is this is not fun watch I mean he's always live he's staying he's staying kicking oh he's gonna watch those toes in the cage but big Dan just let the slide big Dan's enjoying the show man yeah man Tony's got to do something man yeah this isn't the way he's avoiding a whole bunch of damage right now, but it's about it.
Starting point is 01:03:51 He's also taking a decent amount so far this round. Oh, that's a nice shot from the ground. He's throwing punches down off of his back. But is he landing, ma'am? Green just threw an elbow to the ribs and another. Nice little elbow to the face. Oh, man, Green is dropping. Yeah, Tony's really not liking that now.
Starting point is 01:04:15 Big elbow. He's not liking that now. Oh, no. Now he's covered his face. A little fence grabbed, but it's okay. Oh, what a... Oh, those hammer fists are awful. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Tony's still going, though. He's, dude, is durable as hell. Yes, bro. He is not an easy out. Somehow, Tony is still in this. Bobby looking comfortable there. Could be to his detriment. It could be his detriment.
Starting point is 01:04:48 That's ground strikes. Yeah, big difference in the ground strikes. Yeah, all right. Bobby standing it up. I don't know how much. Tony, you just got to run out. at him at this point and just swing. That's kind of what he did with a little somersault.
Starting point is 01:05:00 He's just got to throw everything he's got here. The pace is huge. Like, he's letting Bobby, like, Bobby's just fighting his fight. Yeah, yeah, he's having a lot of success. Tony's just getting battered. It feels like Tony's slowing down a little bit too. Oh, man, oh, man. Tony, Tony's like, yeah, hit me, dude.
Starting point is 01:05:17 Hit me more, come on, man. Is there like a welt on the right side of the face? Yeah, that's definitely a well. It looks like something is trying to crawl out of his face. Oof. Yeah. Bobby's just battering him. Did Joe Rogan just say this is the page of Tony's thriving on right now?
Starting point is 01:05:38 Another right hand. Bobby just keeps switching stances. I want to see the strength. Literally, you read my mind, dude. Yeah, the striking stats here would be massive differential. 56 to 17 on headstrike. 56 to 17 for Bobby. I mean, this was a...
Starting point is 01:05:55 Ouch. This is a beating here. Oh, good left hand from Tony. Bobby just took two pretty bad hits. And Bobby's briefed. Bobby says, I mean, he's got to be. And Tony's moving forward. Okay.
Starting point is 01:06:08 Somehow. Oh, but Bobby's just still landing that jab. Ooh, I don't know what just happened there. Oh, nice shot by Tony. Oh, Tony. Another nice one. Bobby Green calls him on. Oh, and Bobby answers.
Starting point is 01:06:20 All right. Ah, is not good. Well, I don't have to change anything, so I'm not going to. Yeah, that was a. 10-9, Bobby Green. 10-9. That a boy. 109 King.
Starting point is 01:06:35 Oh, yes, you're right, right. He did say it to me me today. Look, you want to call me King, call me Bobby Green, call me Bobby Green. I like that style. Bobby Green down a minus 650 on the live line. Yeah. Maybe, maybe gas, you know, we might be in for a big one. We might be in for a big third round, who knows?
Starting point is 01:06:51 We could. And who knows? Maybe two of the judges gave Tony the first because he dropped them. Oh, yeah. It's very possible. I think that's definitely a possibility. I think that's definitely impossibility. They don't know if it happened, but...
Starting point is 01:07:04 Hmm. I think, like, the best... What do you think, Frank? 2018 Bobby, or... Yeah. Oh, man. Argument for a 10-8? I mean, I don't hate it.
Starting point is 01:07:19 I mean, he walloped them up pretty good that round. I'm not saying that it's going to be a 10-8, but... Yeah. All right, here we go. Round three. Let's see what Tony's got. I get, like, Bobby had a good... Like, he dominated, but he didn't almost finish Tony.
Starting point is 01:07:38 Like, Tony was never really in true jeopardy of getting finished in that round. I think there's, like, a part of me deep down that just kind of wanted to see him. Oh, nice a little. Oh. Now, maybe you slipped. I don't know what just happened yet. Tony threw a kick, Bobby caught it and just kind of flipped him. Hit the table flip.
Starting point is 01:07:55 I like that. That's a nice move. And Tony went flat on his back. Oh, Tony tried to throw a leg kick from hell, and he ate a left and a right. Right up top. He's still landing, though? Their right hand's getting through every once in a normal. Tony's still moving good.
Starting point is 01:08:15 Let's see. Green just got those hands down, just baiting them in. The hands down thing, nice body shot by Bobby. Tony's got to push the pace. Oh, man, big overhead right from Bobby, and he's talking a bunch of noise to tell you right now.
Starting point is 01:08:36 Tony's just got to start chucking them. Yes. Just throw as hard as you can. Throw that fastball. Shut out. CSO? Nice right hand. Just missed with the jab.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Left hand from Tony. Bobby answers to the left of his own. Oh, body shot from Bobby. Bobby, man. He keeps those hands so low, dude. I know. She keeps mixing things up very well, keeping Tony guessing.
Starting point is 01:09:08 Yeah. Tony's not the round three I was hoping for. Tony's not throwing anything. Oh, he could be tired, man. It could be gassed out. Hmm. You know Frank Tex? Hmm's as well.
Starting point is 01:09:20 Not only does he audibly give you Just like the hmm They'll text you in HMMM and you're just like How often does that happen? Every day I was going to say That's gotta be a once a day at that More than you'd think
Starting point is 01:09:31 Three minutes left here For Tony to make something happen Bobby having to get Heltered in this round Shout out to Visa Shout out what Visa crypto.com Tony landed a right hand
Starting point is 01:09:46 Okay All right Tony's land Oh alright I kind of just like going blow for blow Okay Tony's starting to throw a little more. Oh, nice combo. Did you see eat a little more?
Starting point is 01:09:59 Oh, wow. He's putting it together right now. Tony just keeps moving forward. Started up a little, you know, interesting little hop there. Oh, man. What are we at right now in terms of numbers? I think I said...
Starting point is 01:10:21 Oh, for live odds? No, no, in terms of stats. You're pretty close. Oh, nice little body kick. I like it. I said 180 to 110, Bobby Green. I feel like Bobby's going to be 180 at this point. He's real close to it.
Starting point is 01:10:35 Tony putting together a little something right here in the last 30 seconds. He's getting Bobby moving backwards. He's just got to do something with it. Let's see. Now he's only at 114 right now. 114 to 40, though. Yeah, that's not going to go. Oh.
Starting point is 01:10:50 No, I think he's good. Is that a kick? Yeah, I think he just slipped. Went for a kick. It slipped. Oh. That combo is working. Busted up.
Starting point is 01:11:00 too. Oh, good right here from Tony. Nice one hand from Tony. And Bobby says, oh, Bobby shake it off, which means that sucks. Yeah, which he probably heard. Yeah. Damn, Tony's getting getting bloody right there. Oh, Bobby, with the right hand. It's a great right hand. I wonder, like, how much that eye... Oh, he goes through the spending, but man, that was... So, telegraphed, slow. Justin Cage, he just changed his lives, man. He just changed his lives in that Octagon, and Tony Ferguson is Exhibit A. Oh,
Starting point is 01:11:35 what happened there? Slip? Oh, is he? Go for a takedown? Oh, whoa, what's going on here? All right, a little scramble down the bottom. Oh, this could... Oh, gosh. Oh, yeah, but this is exactly what happened in round two. Tony's about to get hammer.
Starting point is 01:11:51 I'm sorry, oh my gosh, those are some crazy hammerfish. Hammer smash face. Did Bobby just, like, go for a takedown? Yes, he did. I really thought he was like a half for a second. Oh, man. Ooh. Arm triangle, Bobby Green submission?
Starting point is 01:12:08 I think he might get that. No way. He might get this. Bobby Green's got a... That is tight. Oh, no. Tony's about... He's trying to stay away.
Starting point is 01:12:20 Tony's kicking his feet. He's kicking his feet. Get out of here. Is he going to survive? Oh, my gosh. He submitted him. Bobby Green, by submission. Wow.
Starting point is 01:12:33 Oh, my gosh, dude. That was crazy. That is a fight. I did not... did not see Bobby Green submitting him. Wow, dude. Man, if you had a Bobby Green by decision... I mean, yeah, this is, like,
Starting point is 01:12:47 it almost feels bad to even hit the thing you on it. It's just like a one-finger tap. Wow. Man, Justin Gagee, just... Man. Wow. I did not foresee him submitting him. I honestly thought he got, like, a little bit hurt,
Starting point is 01:13:03 and he's like, oh, let's just take this to the ground and finish the fight. Yeah. Did not think he was going to submit him. Wow, man. She surprised you guys. Oh, you add Bobby Greenby's a mission, Frank? Oh, yeah. Let me see it.
Starting point is 01:13:15 Yeah. Let's see the ticket. Yeah, yeah, send me the ticket, Frank. I'll put you on the show on Monday. Let's see. A little hammer action. Yeah. Oh, it's real nice.
Starting point is 01:13:32 Yeah, I'm just, oh, he kicked Big Dan. How do you feel about that, Frank? Did he make contact? It looked like the first one hit him. The going limp, though. God, that's scary. Yeah. Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 01:13:47 It's almost like he should have just tapped. Like he's going to lose the fight anyway. Wow, Bobby Green. The fact that he didn't tap to this, but he tapped to Nate Diaz on like a one-handed, one-armed guillotine. Yeah. And for those who were just like,
Starting point is 01:14:06 should I bet on M.M.A.? Should I not bet on M.M.A.? Jedd M.Shoe had Bobby Green by decision. If you had Bobby Green by decision, I am. And, yeah, that didn't happen. I'm incredibly sorry for you. Joe in the back was asking us what we thought of how that fight was going to go
Starting point is 01:14:20 and we couldn't decide between Bobby Green decision or finish looks like Bobby Green yeah by finish yeah Tony's just I kind of want him to retire man like I hate being that dude that's like trying to push him out the door
Starting point is 01:14:42 yeah of course not but he's lost six straight Bobby Green just did the triple H spit the water everywhere thing Tony's still in the cage, so maybe he'll stay in there and talk to Joe. Tony Ferguson versus...
Starting point is 01:15:07 Huh? If you do Tony... Like, if Tony's gonna fight one more, I feel like... I kind of wish Dana was in Salt Lake City because he would be asked about this, and he'd probably say, we need to have that conversation.
Starting point is 01:15:22 Jim Miller, Tony Ferguson. One last fight. You have C-300 double retirement fight? Tony Ferguson... Joe Lozahn? Be a fun one? Time me up, dude. That's it. Like, nothing else.
Starting point is 01:15:35 Nothing else. Yeah, I mean, I would be okay if he just retired now. Yeah. Like, he didn't look terrible in there. Like, obviously, he dropped him. But, oh, man. He's so close to making it to the end, too.
Starting point is 01:15:57 Yeah. Oh, man, he really did go, like, limp. I mean, but Tony's body is just, like, welts everywhere. I mean, his body is just, Welts Bobby. Damn, dude. Watching that in like super slow motion, I would actually
Starting point is 01:16:11 like him to retire. Yeah. Like, I would like him to retire, dude. He's lost six straight. Like, he's not winning a title. Who would you match him up against? Like, I know you just mentioned the guys at UFC 300. That's it. Nobody else. Did, yeah. In fact, like, Lozahn would be my pick.
Starting point is 01:16:30 Like, Joe Lozahn. Dude, it really is, like, the the head kick, then this. Like, these things are not good for. for putting your body through. Lozahn hasn't fought. Oh, William, shut out. He's all jazz.
Starting point is 01:16:42 Lozahn hasn't fought in almost four years. So, like, one more fight. Joe would be good. Like, Joe said he would do one more if, like, the date and the opponent lines up perfectly. I kind of feel like that's a good one. And Joe would retire.
Starting point is 01:16:59 Yeah. Yeah, I'm cool with Tony Ferguson retiring, man. Yeah. It's not good on the body. He's slower in there. Like, this was, like, a winnable fight? It was.
Starting point is 01:17:13 I would be, I guess I'd be all right if he did the one more at UFC 300. Yeah. But shit, man. It's kind of like, yeah. I love they got the shipman up to Boston in the background for the O'Malley. As they should. Just for Boston in general. Hyped. Hiked. You got to be hyped.
Starting point is 01:17:37 I will be there. I won't be there for the fights. What are we going to have a big old pot of baked beans on the table? I mean, is that what we're doing? We gotta start thinking. Some lobster rolls, dude. We gotta do some lobster rolls. Now you're talking. Now you're talking. A little lobster roll action?
Starting point is 01:17:50 A little corn beef and cabbage. Boiled dinner, as we like to say. We're watching the party the night before? Let's go. Oh, the party. Great movie. And I'll spend like four days there. So I'll probably, like, that accent's probably gonna come back.
Starting point is 01:18:04 Oh, let's go. We got us that today with some Dunkin' Donuts. I start every day. I know. Every single day. You're sicker. As a man that has had Dunkin' Donuts hundreds of times in my life,
Starting point is 01:18:16 I can speak about it. Yeah. It's just good stuff. Oh, see, I'm on the opposite end. I'm not a huge dunking down. No? Hey, listen, I get it. People will go to war for it, though. People will go to war for it.
Starting point is 01:18:27 It used to be the only coffee shop in my neighborhood in Brooklyn. So that's, like, all I could go to if I wanted to not make coffee at home. They were, like, never known really for their coffee until, like, I was in high school. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, like, there's times where I go to Dunkin, I'm like, man, that was fantastic.
Starting point is 01:18:45 And then there's times where I go, and I'm like, what is this? One time I got a breakfast sandwich, and, like, they just took it out of the freezer, like, microredge it for like 30 seconds. Like, I bit into it. It was just, like, ice. I was like, we didn't even dry here. Oh, tell me. It's pretty accurate.
Starting point is 01:19:01 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Me too. One of my first job is I worked at. Co-Maine is done at Spence Crawford. Yeah. It looks like we're making our way to the main event. we're making our way to the main event so or at least
Starting point is 01:19:14 we're 45 minutes away from from the main event starting at least 55 55 oh you say 55 the pacing up our scenes it's like they're gonna they're gonna perfectly do it where we're getting the main event the main events at the same time let's hope not though
Starting point is 01:19:31 let's hope not uh so yeah no no retirement from Tony Ferguson kind of but I think you know In mynayfiting.com right now, there will be like a pros react to that. I'm sure most fighters who reacted are probably saying Tony should go ahead and just do the thing and... Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:52 We'll longer do the thing. Should we rip a couple packs? I was just going to say. Is that a crazy thing to do right now? I think it's about that time. I said we get into it, baby. Yeah. Yo, let's glove up.
Starting point is 01:20:03 You mind having me those gloves back there? I think that's a great idea. Ooh. Next up, Derek Lewis. So, so far, dude. two for two on the on the finishes yep will we
Starting point is 01:20:16 will we go five for five I think we're gonna get one in this next fight I mean Bobby Green by we get Bobby Green submission and then we get like Derek Lewis by decision I mean just one of those nice don't do not talk Derek Lewis
Starting point is 01:20:30 by decision into existence that that's the worst possible outcome for me we're crying on the stream if it's Derek Lewis by decision all right all right that's not something we want around these parts.
Starting point is 01:20:44 Marcus Roger de Lima, though, we could do that. Okay. We could be alright with that. This is the main card. Chris Wyman doesn't get the main card treatment. They're putting Cody Garbrant, Marri Batista on there, huh? All right. That doesn't feel like a matchup, Cody Garbrandt,
Starting point is 01:20:59 is favorable in. No. Mario Batista can't be like a minus three something favorite. Mario Batista can crack. Mouinci-O-Vara. A little bit of animosity in the Jeff Neil Ian Gary situation. Yes.
Starting point is 01:21:14 Feels like I'm either a doctor or a barbecue guy. Or a referee. An MMA referee. Frank, you want to come get some gloves and live the ref life? That's the best lie. All right, so we just opened it again.
Starting point is 01:21:28 Hopefully we'll have something new next time. Hopefully we'll maybe have the select. We're going again with the prism. We are going to get an autograph. The question is, who is said autograph? Let's do it. Let's do it, Frank.

Starting point is 01:28:47 Since Derek Lewis waited at 263 and a half, I don't believe it. Derek looks like... It looks good, man. He looks good. When I saw the abs, I got as nervous for my Bobby Green bet when I saw the knee slides of Tony Ferguson
Starting point is 01:28:58 as I did when I saw the abs of Derek Lewis. He looked great on the scale, man. Yeah. Here we go. Derek Lewis, Mark, Marcus Ruggiero de Lima All that's left is for Bruce Buffer to introduce them
Starting point is 01:29:15 and we're going to have a fight That's correct Derek Lewis getting a knockout right now I'm cool with that Listen I'm cool with that Would be like the pop He's going to get from this crowd
Starting point is 01:29:30 If he knocks out Marcus Jury DeLima in the first round He did I'm cool with a Derek Lewis knockout I have a decent size bet on The Lima But the under two and a half also cash is a par line.
Starting point is 01:29:42 Okay. Plus, I love Derek Lewis. I mean, he's the man. How can you not love him? Honestly, Derek Lewis looks better than Marcos Ruggiero de Lima, and they're both 38. Keep that in mind.
Starting point is 01:29:55 Derek Lewis looks better than most people on this card right now. This is... Look at this guy. He looks like it. It's crazy. I should cash out my Marcos, but I should cash out my Marcos, but...
Starting point is 01:30:10 It's time. Oh, what are we going with? little ice pop prime energy? Little ice pop. Just what the doctor ordered. I saw some weird looking Rick Flair drinks on the table over there. Yeah, you should drink those. The mushroom elixir, Frank, that didn't go so well for you, huh?
Starting point is 01:30:25 Felt it in my kidneys. Yeah, don't think that's a good sign. Yeah, not great. I'll have two for, uh. Just maybe, uh, don't drink it as fast. Oh, yeah, we got a little shooy action in the fans. I love it. Okay.
Starting point is 01:30:39 That's an all-time moment. That's an all-time moment for that guy. And the end up. Yeah, but having a good time. Love it. Shoot. I mean, just in Utah, the shooy state. I didn't see that coming, but here we go.
Starting point is 01:30:52 Here we go. Here we go. Derek's got that look in his eye. I do it. Even all the fighters. I got good hope for Derek Lewis. Whoa! Wow.
Starting point is 01:31:05 Wow. What the hell is that? That's how you fight. I need the absolute lunchboxes. Hey, dude, Roger. The Lima might be. Big Dan. He's cooked. Big Dad, what are you doing? Full mount. Derek is just Oh, wait, wait. Oh, he's got his back. No way. Oh, he's just shocking him. Delima might be done.
Starting point is 01:31:29 Delima might be done. Just throwing big shots. Dan is asking. He's looking at him. Oh, it's over. It's over. 33 seconds. Derek Lewis. Blind knee. Derek was. I can't believe that. That was unbelievable. That was unbelievable. Pants are off! The pants are off! Oh my God! He's swinging his pants around his head! He's up on the cage!
Starting point is 01:32:05 Yes! No way. No way! Oh my God. in a row. Oh, oh, he's in the Bobby Smyrida. He's in the Bobby Smerda. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That was incredible. And now he's just like, all right. Oh, that was incredible. The flying knee from Derek Lewis. I cannot believe that. A new record. A new record for Derek Lewis. I cannot believe that, dude.
Starting point is 01:32:45 It's the greatest thing I've ever seen. Dude, if you don't like Derek. You can get out. You can get out. Look at this. Flying knee. He just like, he walked it. He walked it and flew in the air. That's going to be.
Starting point is 01:33:01 Justically. Oh my God. And it landed force. Oh, God. That was absolutely ridiculous. Apparently Kevin Holland was back to me. I cannot believe it. Doing his media, doing his post-vite scrum,
Starting point is 01:33:23 while this, moment happening jumped off the stage. Dude, that is ridiculous. No, that was like the greatest moment of my life. If this is not clipped off for all of eternity, I don't know what other thing. That is the greatest thing I've ever seen. This is the greatest moment of Conner's Law.
Starting point is 01:33:40 Yes, I'm firing up a storm. You see the fingers over here? Everything. That entire, the fight, the celebrate, that was the best maybe four minutes of the year. for the UFC right there from Derek Lewis. The gloves are coming off. Of Derek Lewis, please.
Starting point is 01:33:59 Get out of here. Honestly, this would be the greatest, this would be the greatest retirement moment. This would be so, he's throwing the gloves in, not even going to leave him in the octagon. He's throwing him into the crowd. Dude, he's got a cannon on him.
Starting point is 01:34:14 Did you see his flying knee? Dude, look at him, counting the abs. If he retires right now, this might be equivalent with Robbie Lawler if he retires right now. This might be better. And through all of this, like, poor Marcus is Jerry Delima gets this big opportunity
Starting point is 01:34:34 and just gets melted and it's the Derek Lewis show. And he's dancing still. He's got Joe Rogan. Let's see if he's, let's see what this means. This would be so beautiful moment for him to retire. It really would. I'm not even going to lie. Hell, no.
Starting point is 01:34:59 He is the, like, dude, this fucking guy is, I'm not repeating what he said. This guy is the man. Let's see what he's saying. He's happier than an MFer, which is kind of the theme of fire. Oh, that's incredible. Oh, my God. It's so unbelievable.
Starting point is 01:35:43 It's so unbelievable. Oh, wow. It's like, you just like bowling balled him over right after that. Jeez, Louise. That was so incredible, dude. Wow. I cannot believe that. Derek, like, Derek Lushin get everyone else.
Starting point is 01:36:11 Oh, he's a free agent. It is what it is. All right. So Derek Lewis, for those who are not watching right now, well, he's shouting on his family. Derek Lewis said he is a free agent now. He's hoping that the UFC will offer him a new deal. And he said, if not, eff it. It is what it is.
Starting point is 01:36:41 And if that was his last UFC fight, good grief. Derek Lewis, a little, I mean, he would make a ton of money in, like, the influencer boxing world. Derek Gleus and BKFC Make a whole bunch of money there Man So we got a new record holder Matt Brown now in second place by himself But geez
Starting point is 01:37:08 No I mean Derek Lewis should get two knockouts for that That was unbelievable MVP MVP All right I mean I have You can't top that
Starting point is 01:37:23 I don't care what I do not give a shit What happens the rest of the night Yeah I don't What celebrities are we're not going to top that. And we still get justice. We're not going to stop that. We're not going to top that.
Starting point is 01:37:33 That was, I had a decent size wager on Marcos Ruggiero de Lima. First of all, I'm embarrassed for betting against that man, Derek Lewis. He is a saint to the UFC. Second, I don't care at all that I lost that bet because that was such an unbelievable moment. Like that was, that moment was like, you could not, I can't put into words how incredible that moment was. That was so good. That was so good, dude. The flying knee to the pants off, to jumping on the cage, to taking his gloves off and throwing them into the crowd. Like, that was, ah, dude is a legend. Oh my God. People throw around the word legend a lot. Derek Lewis
Starting point is 01:38:15 is a legend. That was legendary shit right there. See, that's a dude that does, there's no rankings. Nothing matters. That, he's just, I am so glad that that was on the main card. It's unbelievable. I hate that we lost Michelle Pereira, Steve at Wonderboard Thompson. I'm so glad that that happened on the main card. I'm so glad that we got to react to that. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:38:37 Because, yeah, as much as I love Wonderboy and watching Michelle Pereira fight, that would not have happened. Wonder Boy wasn't... I'm not going to lie, dude. I didn't go... I feel like I didn't go that insane in the very first moment it happened
Starting point is 01:38:53 because I didn't think it landed. I thought he just knocked him over. Now seeing the replay. it caught him so clean, dude. It was so beautiful. It was so beautiful, dude. It was so good. That was so good, dude.
Starting point is 01:39:05 I cannot believe that just happened. I'm at a loss for words. If you told me Derek Lewis was going to run out for a flying knee and then get the finish in the first 45 seconds, take his pants off and jump on the cage, I would have said, where do I sign up for that? That was worth at all. That was so great, dude.
Starting point is 01:39:22 We're about to get the co-main event between Janbovich and Alex Pereira. Is Shahi, El-Han Al-Shadee about to do? join us? I believe that is correct. Is he here? We are working on it. If he's here, I'm going to sprint. I'm going to, I'm going to take, I'm taking inspiration from Derek Lewis's athletic ability.
Starting point is 01:39:39 No one could even hear you anymore. You're gone. So Mike. I mean, he is just, I mean, he's running real fast. How are you doing? I can hear, I'm doing great. How are you? Feeling okay in that room by yourself? I'm doing my best. It's me, my prime, and
Starting point is 01:39:55 I know where the primes are hidden if you want to know. you do yeah I have a feeling you do too because oh yeah where do you think I got connecting the dots now yeah I mean you you showed me the way how about some trivia you already answered yeah I will know I'll have questions for you okay what do you got okay before the octagon what were some other ring considerations for the UFC a basketball court a pit. Incorrect. No, actually.
Starting point is 01:40:33 What was it? They considered a moat with alligators. That's incredible. They considered men dressed up in Togas. I'm not even joking. Because they wanted to do something unique. And then they settled on the octagon. I mean, out of all those ideas, octagon was the best choice.
Starting point is 01:40:51 I mean, that's, yeah. A moat with alligators is less interesting than an octagon? Right. I mean, let's know even. start with smart cages. What celebrity did Ariel Hawani interview last year that owns a pro wrestling promotion? Tony Kahn. That's correct, but you didn't let me finish.
Starting point is 01:41:14 Oh. And is the lead singer of a popular 1990s rock band from Chicago. Wait, what? Yeah. Do you want way to repeat it? Is it double question? Oh, it's giving you hints. Oh, Billy Corgan, sorry.
Starting point is 01:41:30 Okay. And he's back. Yes. You know who's really good at trivia? Didn't miss anything. Here's that. Connor's really good of trivia. Didn't miss it.
Starting point is 01:41:41 And you know something you didn't know about me? I can run really, really fast. All right. Well, let's go. Let's go. We're going to have a little moment here. I mean, I love this. This is the official watch party.
Starting point is 01:41:51 Bathroom break. Watch party, bathroom break. Watch party intermission, I guess we want to call it. Hey, Connor. What's up, man? How are things at home? We're going on a single shot here. This is, uh...
Starting point is 01:42:01 Um, I did the same thing to Mike. You want to play some trivia? Just rehydrating here. Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You have questions for me? Oh, no. Did you hear when he was answering questions? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:42:16 Uh, ring considerations. You know what? I have somebody you could talk to. We have Shaheen ready for you. Let's go. Shaheen, my man. Oh, sick. Oh, he's not ready.
Starting point is 01:42:27 Oh, yeah. Cool. Cool. Yeah, I guess I'll just, uh, is that? Yeah, just sit there. Yeah. I guess so you muted? No.
Starting point is 01:42:38 Shane? What's that? Oh, there we go. There we go. Oh, I didn't even realize I was on. Yeah, you are on the air now. What is up, man? A little, uh, little loss in communication.
Starting point is 01:42:49 Tell me, dude. How we feel about the Derek Lewis moment? Moment of the year? Oh, my God. I mean, man, look, everyone knows where I stand with Tony Ferguson. I've been on the Tony Ferguson thing for a long time. I was pretty sad tonight. I was feeling pretty down.
Starting point is 01:43:04 And then Derek Lewis comes out. This wonderful, wonderful man, destroys a dude into 32 seconds, takes his pants off, throws his cup into the crowd, announces his free agency as an all-time record holder for chaos in the UFC. Like, what a hero. What a hero that was. 10 out of 10, 5 stars, no notes, A plus.
Starting point is 01:43:22 Derek Lewis is like an absolute legend. Derek Lewis is a legend for doing that. I mean, he's already the, my balls was hot, stuff like that. Like, he's already been a legend, most knockouts in UFC history. That was a legendary moment. I will never forget that. Derek Lewis has just stamped the old memory with something I will never forget. That was.
Starting point is 01:43:42 We needed that. We really needed that. I will watch that replay when I get home eight million times. The one view of him landing the knee flush is one of the greatest things I've ever seen. The fact that he went out there and did that and it worked is just, it's unbelievable. I'm on cloud nine after that. I really am like on a high after that.
Starting point is 01:44:01 It was so good. Yeah. I was ready to turn it in for the night after the nadir of the Tony Ferguson experience. But now I'm all the way back. Let me walk you through the Tony thing. First and foremost, where are you at after you see him successfully do the knee slides?
Starting point is 01:44:19 You know, I feel like there's just a looming sense of dread over all of it at this point. I don't know that I ever felt good. When I saw him hit the knee slides, Well, here's the thing. This is what I wanted to say. When I saw him hit the knee slides and then crescendo into dropping him, I was feeling decent as Poetan makes his walk right now.
Starting point is 01:44:37 Speaking of the walk. We're about the air. Oh, yes. Yeah, let's not forget about that. Look at the arrow. Oh, have we put that out yet? No. Oh, well, go ahead and put it out.
Starting point is 01:44:49 You guys are too busy going to the bathroom. Listen, man, Derek Lewis got things off track here, dude. Derek Lewis got things off track. Jeanne, we talk about like Mount Rushmore's and stuff all the time. What Derek Lewis just did, if there is a Mount Rushmore, best five minute stretches in UFC history, that has to be on there. Is it not? Everything was incredible.
Starting point is 01:45:10 Look, when he took his gloves off, I thought we were about to start having like a real debate over whether he just beat Robbie Baller over, like the greatest retirement lasted like three weeks. But was that the greatest free agency announcement ever? Because it's on the mountain Rushmore of that, right? Yeah. What a God, man. I'm just going to watch myself react to that a thousand times.
Starting point is 01:45:33 This is just, this is what we needed to set up the Derek Lewis to BKFC dream that we all need to become a reality. Yeah. That's just sitting there for us. G.C. made a great point. Like, it's stuck, like, it really stunk losing Wonderboy versus Pereira. But we could have been living in a world, Shaheen, where that moment didn't happen on this watch party, react to. And that would have hurt my soul in hindsight after reacting to what Derek Lewis just did in the way that I did. Tears in my eyes, laughing hysterically, everything about that
Starting point is 01:46:09 was just amazing. And then you don't even realize about what poor Marcus Ruggiero Delima just went through, through all of that, because we're just so happy for Derek Lewis. Then we realized that he had, someone had to play the victim to all of this, and it just turned out to be Marcus Rejuri to Lima. So just an emotional roller coaster ride we went on, Shaheen, over that five minutes trash. Or question for you. Question for you, Mike. If you're the fan that catches that cup, what's your move?
Starting point is 01:46:37 Like, what's your next 10 seconds? Oh, I'm keeping it for sure. Glass case when I get home. Glass case when I get home easily, no doubt. How are you storing the cup for the rest of the night? Probably my pocket, but I'm probably running to the bathroom in between the fights and like washing that
Starting point is 01:46:58 and my hands thoroughly. Seeing if I could get like a plastic bag from the concession stand what are you doing with it? Like you guys aren't going to keep the Derek Lewis Cup after that moment? I would treat it like a foul ball at a baseball game. Yeah. Like if there's a
Starting point is 01:47:14 I mean if there's like a little kid around who really wants Derek Lewis's cup and he's like looking at me with like... You're giving the cup. You're giving the used cup to a little kid. If he wants it, Sure. Like, I don't know what to do with it. That feels more questionable to me. Or somebody else wants it more than I do.
Starting point is 01:47:33 I don't know what to do. Like, I'm just got to hold a random cup in my hands. I don't know. Yeah, that's the thing is, you know what I mean? It's halfway done. Like, we still got, like, half the main card left. I know. Pretty much, yeah.
Starting point is 01:47:45 The fact that we are now crescendoing into the main and co-main. Yes. Is just, like, blowing my mind. I mean, that. Derek Lewis. That was so good. It was so good, dude. It was so good.
Starting point is 01:47:59 I've never seen such an incredible sequence in all of sport. What's the chat bat? Six-pack Derek Lewis. Six-pack Derek Lewis. Oh, let's check it on. Let's check it on. Let's check on.
Starting point is 01:48:09 Oh, we got Spence Crawford. Let's see who's going on over there. The chat has spoken. What is they say? What is that? Pereira. By Keog. Oh, predictable.
Starting point is 01:48:18 I mean, as soon as you heard Pereira, you knew where this is going. I kind of like him, but he says. And you know where we should go right now? Let's go to the tail of the tape. for the co-main events, potentially a title eliminator. Who will face Yuri Perhashka for the vacant light heavyweight title? At least that's the direction we think we're going to go.
Starting point is 01:48:35 There is to be just look at the experience advantage in the mixing of the martial arts for Jan Boehovic. Four years older than Alex Pereira, Perra, two inches taller, one-inch reach advantage. The former middleweight champion is certainly not outsized in his new weight class. Let's see how this all is going to play. out. Man, Pereira by knockout. Perre by knockout is the pick.
Starting point is 01:48:59 Chat, both times, taking the chalkiest route, I have to say. Shaheen, remember on the preview show, we were talking about what the ceremonial way in face-off was going to look like between Jan Boehovic and Alex Pereira without the cowboy had and all the pomp and circumstance and everything. And Pereira just looked like a giant man. Like, he... He's a big boy. He just looks bigger.
Starting point is 01:49:24 jovial yet terrifying, everything about, like, just look at this man, just looking gigantic. He was happy all week. Did the ceremonial way in face off? Did that change, like, you know, maybe this fight goes a little differently
Starting point is 01:49:36 than I thought it was when it was first announced. I mean, that's the thing, though, right? It's like Luke Rockhold, Israel, Astana, both those guys when they came up to fight Yon at 2-05. I don't think that either of them looked like a light-heavyweight, like looked like a real light-heavyweight. Like, this man looks like a light-heavyweight.
Starting point is 01:49:53 Like Alpshire. It looks like a light everywhere. He's big, bro. He's a big man. I just feel like Yon's going to wrestle. Is this our third politan fight already on these watch parties? Yeah. Shout out, man.
Starting point is 01:50:05 Izzy, Izzy, Jan. Yeah. I really like both these guys. Yeah. I'm cool with either them winning. I miss where we were on the spin craw. Yeah, it's... We're underway.
Starting point is 01:50:18 In the first round, we are underway. There we go. Okay. Are you nervous? Are you nervous? You're the last man. Just, you know. You are the one to finish Parlay Pows.
Starting point is 01:50:27 I got this. Boys. Boys. Comain, light heavyweight. One customer bet $20,621. 50 cents on Janbovich at minus 110. What a strange amount. That's like such a strangely specific amount.
Starting point is 01:50:43 Yeah. I mean, you might as well just go all out and just have random numbers for everything. More. Not end it with 50 cents. Ended with like 57 cents. Like, it'll just go all the way. Here we go. Here we go.
Starting point is 01:50:57 Jamal Hill watching very closely. It's not like she's going to fight these guys anytime soon. Let's see. Here we go. You have the touch of the gloves. When do we get the first takedown, Shaheen? I mean, Pereira, look how big Pereira is in there. Hopefully not soon.
Starting point is 01:51:15 I'd like to see a stand-up. Oh, wow. There's your first in. 10 seconds in. There's your answer. He stuff it. Can he stuff it? Can he stuff it?
Starting point is 01:51:23 Gilly? Is he? Oh, I thought he was going to jump Gilly. Gilly. That would be the one. wildest thing. Do not jump, Gilly. Please, God. Don't jump the Gilly. Just stuff to take down.
Starting point is 01:51:31 He's doing okay. Yon was so, Yon did not hide it all week. He could read between the lines. He was going to wrestle. Of course. Dude, why would he not? Like, let me stand and strike with this lethal guy. No way. He's got the Gilly.
Starting point is 01:51:42 No way. No way. No way. There is. I don't know. No, he gave the thumbs up. I was like, I was about to say if we get an Alex Pereira standing guillotine right now, like I would less than a minute. I would lose it. I would absolutely.
Starting point is 01:51:58 Can you imagine if he just Jones machine? This card, dude, this card, it would honestly make sense. This has been such a ridiculous card so far. In a good way. Yes, in a good way. Tony Ferguson dropped Bobby Green in the first round. That was so crazy. So Jan has been holding
Starting point is 01:52:14 onto the single leg for 47 seconds. Hasn't been able to get anything. Pereer's just kind of elbowing him in the hymns. Nothing. Still can't get him down. No, it's on.
Starting point is 01:52:28 Jan got a foot up in the air, but Pereira, I don't know. This kick that he's throwing to the back of the calf of Jan Bojovich is really an interesting one. Yeah. Not really the round one I was looking for. What were you looking for? A little bit more action. A flying knee, perhaps, in the first four seconds? The fact that Derek was...
Starting point is 01:52:50 Oh, there. Oh, there we go. Oh, there we go. Not great control? I thought Pereira was literally going to pick him up like a child and stand back up. because it was looking like he was putting out. Oh, no. He's got the back.
Starting point is 01:53:03 No. No. Oh, he's got it. He's a body triangle too. Can you imagine having Jan Blaovich with a body triangle on your back and trying to stand up? Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no, no.
Starting point is 01:53:18 Oh. I think he might have this, dude. Oh, it's out. He's out. Oh, no. It's deeper, deeper. Oh, he's fighting through it. fighting through it.
Starting point is 01:53:28 Pereira hanging in there. And the crowd doesn't know what to do. Still got so long to deal with this. I know. This is a whole half a round. And Yambo, which is not a small man to have on your back. Pereira looks very calm.
Starting point is 01:53:45 I mean, I think we could be in the trenches of war with Alex Pereira and he was calm. You guys should all talk at once. It's great. I mean, Frank is just on fire. He's spicy tonight. I know, man.
Starting point is 01:53:59 He's got, He's got a couple of yes-men back there, pat him on the back every one-liner he throws out. Oh, he might be falling off. Is that a headbut? I thought we saw a little clash of heads, but maybe not. Pereer trying to stand back up and... He's almost there.
Starting point is 01:54:17 Back to a knee. Can we just tag team this and Alex can tag in Glover to share real quick? Oh, that'd be great. That'd be incredible. Oh, watch that. Watch that. Thought he was going to go for the elbow. Yep.
Starting point is 01:54:28 Dude, no matter what happens here, this has got to be draining for Pereira. Yep. The crowd booing like crazy, but Jan is just, I mean, that is just music to Jan's ears right now. Oh. It's under the, oh, he's trying to pull it back. Nice, nice, nice, nice. First, still defending. First fighting the hands well, dude.
Starting point is 01:54:57 Will my prediction come true, Shaheen? This is the sloggy first round. Oh, man, I mean, it's on track. Every round has to start on the feet, eh? Back-to-back flying knees. Uh-oh. He's still got 60 seconds to survive, man. Oh, that's nasty.
Starting point is 01:55:16 I think that might be it. What a squeeze. No, no. We're trying to hold on. That's tough. Oh, my guy. All right, all right. Punches.
Starting point is 01:55:28 He's got 35 seconds to survive, dude. Look, is this the most thrilling stuff ever? No, but am I, like, on the edge of my seat here? Yeah. Oh. Nope. Wow. This is...
Starting point is 01:55:48 Yep. Yon's still got the body triangle on. This is going to wear on Yon a little bit, too. I mean, you got to imagine... Proffs Alex Pereira for surviving this round. 10 seconds? Wow, man. Wow.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Wow. It looks like Pereira is going to survive. Yeah. He does. All right. All right. Okay. Wow.
Starting point is 01:56:10 Sheen, where you got this? I mean... I mean, just... A professional. 10-9, Yon. Is it 10-8? Didn't really get the damage for a 10-8 for me.
Starting point is 01:56:28 Yeah. He threatened a lot of submissions, but I'll go 10-9. Blockowicz. Yeah, I mean, how many punches did Yombovich throw and or land in that round? Not many.
Starting point is 01:56:40 My internet's struggling to keep up with old Crawford Spence here. Let's see if I can get some Twitter scorecards. What's M.Afighting.com saying about the score of this fight. We're on the same internet. Yeah, mine's struggling, man.
Starting point is 01:56:55 How's yours doing? Won't even load. M.A.fighting.com. A lot of people saying 10-9 Spence? 1918 Crawford after two rounds, according to M.A. Fighting's official score? Yeah, I'm seeing a couple 10-8s. A 10-9 first for Spence
Starting point is 01:57:15 and a 10-8 Crawford round two. I wonder if you dropped them. It looks like it, yeah. Here we go, right, round two. Here we go. Here we go. Flying knee. All right, prayer is throwing a little bit more here, as he needs to do.
Starting point is 01:57:35 He needs to get a little respect. Oh, I feel like he's loading up for the flying knee. It's going to submit him again. Submit him again. Again, huh? Well, I'm going to bring him down. Oh, okay. Sorry.
Starting point is 01:57:52 It's okay. Oh, nice shot by yon. John was a nice jab. Yon's getting a little comfortable on the feet. Crowd chanting, let's go, Alex. A little leg kick from Pereira. He's got to mind P's and Q's.
Starting point is 01:58:16 Man, the fact that, like, Pereira almost makes Yon just look like small. He's crazy. He is huge in there. Yeah, the first thing I thought ceremonials after the face-off was... Man, both these dudes are working these leg kicks. Yeah, was that Pereira could fight at heavyweight. Someday, Parer could fight a heavyweight and be fine. I will never understand how this may have.
Starting point is 01:58:35 185 so many different times. It does not make sense. It really doesn't. Professionally, too. Same way, Hamzot making 170 to me. I don't know how he did it. Oh, that way.
Starting point is 01:58:48 They're just trained. Head kicks, man. Oh. Guy Yon sliding. Oh, nice of the left hand from Yon. Oh, now they're trained. Chalking him now. That's a...
Starting point is 01:58:59 Oh. A nice leg kick, man. Oh. Huge whiff on the left, and then two a take down. Frank said this would happen. Yanni with a very smart game plan. This is where you, this is where you called this spot.
Starting point is 01:59:12 There's the take down. Stand up, Alex. Okay, yeah, that's going to be tough. That's going to be tough. But, uh, damn, damn, he barely missed with that left. That was beautiful by Yon to get him to the ground. If Yon's gameplay, I was, you know what? I'm going to stand with him a little more and, like, let him feel like this is where it's going to go.
Starting point is 01:59:31 I mean, to change levels like that as he's going to left, that was. Perfect timing. That was beautiful, man. I don't think he was going to be able to get out from this. Back to the cage. Come on. I mean, look, even if the ref stands them up.
Starting point is 01:59:49 That'll work with my prediction here. Okay. He's in a bad spot, too, right there. Ooh. Oh, man. He's trying to stand us. He's trying to. He's trying to get up, baby.
Starting point is 02:00:05 Dude, just grab the fence. They ain't going to take a point. It's good. A couple of fingers in there. They ain't going to stop you. Don't warn you 14 times. Slowly but surely. Oh!
Starting point is 02:00:28 If you get some separation. Separation! He's up. Mystic Mike! Oh, come on. Don't go back to the ground. Don't go back to the ground. Turn him over, Alex.
Starting point is 02:00:39 Turn him over. Oh, nice knee by yon. Don't go back to the ground. Turn them over and get separation. Oh, don't go back to the ground. Come on. He's just holding him up against the fence. So we got...
Starting point is 02:00:55 You got time. You got time. We got time. There you go. Here we go. We got separation. Oh, if he doesn't... Oh!
Starting point is 02:01:07 If he doesn't... I mean, so far... You got me on the edge of my seat. I know, man. I mean, dude, Mike has called this. Play-by-play, he's predicted this. If he can get the knockout here. Oh, big shot from Yon.
Starting point is 02:01:24 Yon. Yon, that was sneaky. Oh, it goes for another take. Oh, that's it. Oh, man. Come on. Matt at Dord Yon. Nice leg kick.
Starting point is 02:01:32 He's going to shoot a lazy takedown and it's going to be there. Oh, nice. Big right hand from Pereira. Knees to the body. Yon's taking some big breaths. Oh. Oh, man. Oh, man.
Starting point is 02:01:50 Oh, nice uppercut. Nice left hand. Oh, nice is a body. He's deli. Do it. He's dipping for it. It's right there. Oh, that's overcut.
Starting point is 02:02:00 Oh. Oh, my God. It's coming. It's coming. It's coming. Oh, it's right there. Oh, Jan hits him back. Go swing big, swing big, Ferreira.
Starting point is 02:02:14 Yeah, that looks out of it. Yon looks gas, man. He looks exhausted. Mark's staring down. Oh, so close. So close. So close. All right, so for the people that are just tuning in,
Starting point is 02:02:26 Mike called take down in the first round, owns him the first round, who just holds him down. Second round, or second round, he gets the takedown, but then Pereira gets back up and Pereira finishes him in round two, which is what we almost just so close.
Starting point is 02:02:41 I mean, is that an Alex round? I think so. Yeah, I'm going to say Alex. I'm going to say Alex as well. I say Alex. Yep, 1919. I disagree. Of course you do, Frank.
Starting point is 02:02:51 Frank has like favorite fighters that like, like, it's just like he realizes on the watch party that he's like been lifelong fans of. Yeah. 10, 8, 10 April Hovich. I mean, oh my God. If that would have happened, that would have been the greatest,
Starting point is 02:03:04 moment in the history of so close I was so close I wanted it I would have absolutely lost it back was against the cage and he was just picking his shots I thought it was coming I would have absolutely lost my mind I would have run out of this room I would have I would have to quit controlled myself
Starting point is 02:03:20 I'd have to quit the Alex Ferreira minus 300 on the live line that's almost shocking to me yeah minus 300 minus 300 Yon is breathing heavy judge has him down two rounds I don't, but it's possible.
Starting point is 02:03:37 That'd be tough to have him down two rounds. But I think there's... Breakout here does? If he stuffs to take down... Oh! If he stuff to take down... Maybe Alex down two rounds. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 02:03:50 Yeah, that's what we're saying. Alex down two rounds, but he's minus 300, which seems shocked. Yeah, that's... I mean, Yon looks gas, dude. That elevation, man. That elevation. It looks like Pereira's...
Starting point is 02:04:06 This looks decently fresh, man. Yeah, he does. Oh, nice leg kick. Oh, that calf kick. It's so nasty. Is there like a welt on the side of his leg? Oh, yeah. That does look like.
Starting point is 02:04:18 He keeps aiming for it. Nice combo to the leg, to the body kick for yon. Izzy talked about how bad those calf kicks just tore him up both fights. Yeah. Wow. Now, Drafting's minus 110 each way. Oh, I'm seeing minus 350 Alex Pereira on Draft King's Sportsbook right now. Sheesh.
Starting point is 02:04:36 Well, the innards a little slow. Small Hill chiming in. Shout out. Aljman Sterling, one round of piece. One one, one from Balal. Ooh, man, those kicks. Looks like, oh, look at Yon, man. He feels like he's gotten a little second wind here. Looks like a cut opened up on Yon's nose.
Starting point is 02:05:04 Perrero moving forward, get Yon moving backwards. I mean, Yon has to take him down, or this is not going to go well. Although he's having some success here, man. I think Alex Pereira is tired, too. He's just not really showing him as much. He's trying to just get some kind of read out of Jan. Oh. Yon's just sneaky good with the footwork and being defensively sound here.
Starting point is 02:05:30 Those kicks are just nasty. It's like right above the ankle. That was a fastball from Alex Pereira. Going to the body so much. Yeah. A little left head over the top He's setting up something Yeah
Starting point is 02:05:46 Oh quick right hand from Pereira Back to the body Yeah, I like that body work Yep That left hand is coming over the top It's tune from Alex I think so Only got half a round to do it
Starting point is 02:05:58 That was a nice little left jab right there Oh take down to He stopped Destroy him Oh nice knee That was a good knee to the body from Pereira Oh Oh he's good defense the time
Starting point is 02:06:11 In a sweet moment. That's got to be killing Yon mentally. That's got to be killing Yon mentally. Oh. Oh. Those leg kicks are just vicious. Plenty of fight left. Two minutes.
Starting point is 02:06:28 Two minutes left. Change. Oh, man. Yon's sucking win. It's a close round, man. Oh, nice left hand from Yon, bro. Snap his head back. I agree with what D.C.
Starting point is 02:06:47 You said. It's not a runaway round. Oh, 100%. It's super close. Honestly, don't know who to score before. right now. Someone's going down. I don't know if it's a finish,
Starting point is 02:06:59 but someone's going to get dropped in this round. You say so, 90 seconds? Oh, that was nice. That was a nice jab. Bohovic did not like that at all. Oh. Okay. Sneaking.
Starting point is 02:07:16 Someone is screaming in Brerara's corner. Oh, nice. There was. Yon ate that, man. Yon is so gay. All right. Yon's still, oh, take down attempt from Yom blocked, thwarted, if you will, by Alex Pereira. Pereira starting to get loose now. Nice leg kick.
Starting point is 02:07:45 And we still get Dustin Justin, Justin, too. Oh, take down by Yon. That's big. That's big. That's big. That's big. He's got to do something, though. Let them in Cook.
Starting point is 02:07:57 I have Alex ahead in this round. Yon's got to get something. Yep. He needs something big. Sitting in the guard is not going to do it. You never know what these judges, though, man. That's very, very true. Oh, yeah, and if he controls him for the last 45 seconds,
Starting point is 02:08:13 just the aesthetic of that. Oh, you know what I want to look up? We might get a 30-27 yon or something else. Oh, my Lord. I bet. I bet we will, actually. I wanted to look up. That would be such like an insane scorecard.
Starting point is 02:08:26 I wanted to look up with how the judges. Like, I get how they would get there, but, like, that would just not tell the story of the fight at all. I'm still probably going to hedge that rounds of Pereira. I think Alex wins. I give that to Alex. I'm going to say Alex, 29, 28, but what the judges are going to do? I have no idea. I mean, if we're just...
Starting point is 02:08:46 At night, Alex. Yeah, I'm with you. All right, so we all have 29. 28. So I'm looking at the cards for the Tony Ferguson Bobby Green fight. That's what I wanted to look at. Oh, what is it? Yon actually closed. Minus 300 on the live line, by the way.
Starting point is 02:09:00 Just a quick name. Yeah, I mean, don't want to be a shock. Steve Farahir had it 2017 for Bobby Green after two rounds. Derek Cleary had three judges? Ron McCarthy, Derek Cleary, and Steve Farragher, who's probably a local judge. Local judge gave Bobby Green a 10-8 second. So 2017, Derek Cleary had a 2018 Bobby Green. Ron McCarthy had it 1919 heading into round three.
Starting point is 02:09:26 Gave Tony Ferguson round one. It sounds like Crawford is doing what he wants. I see a lot of 4-1 Crawford. Let's see. I think, I mean, I feel, I mean, I don't feel good about it, but I would feel comfortable scoring it for Alex. I mean, 60 to 39 significant strikes. Stats don't tell the story, but that tracks with what we watch.
Starting point is 02:09:53 Yeah, five minutes of control time, mostly in the first. The only clear, clear round was round one. I think round two was Pereira. Yeah. And then I say, they're taking a minute with this one. It's dicey, row. This is a split. This is definitely a split.
Starting point is 02:10:09 Oh, yeah. We're going to Splitty City, taking a one-way trip. I mean, if we, if this is Pereira, we can get Yuri Pereira, though, like, that is, that is magical. Oh, yeah. You tell him, Mark. There we go. Bruce Buffer reading the cards. Standing closer to Pereira.
Starting point is 02:10:35 Split. 2920 Pereira from Derek Cleary. No. No. Ron McCarthy 29, 284 Alex Pereiro That's the right call
Starting point is 02:10:50 Alex Pereira Right call You get it right Oh boy Yeah, light heavyweight's getting interesting Real interesting What a performance by Alex Pereira man, he dealt with the wrestling
Starting point is 02:11:07 Damn Keep him Keep Alex Pereira far away from Magamette Ankleyev Like so far. away. What did I say? What did I say when the chap said, I said, I actually like him my decision. Plus 700, you know. Should have taken it myself, but... Yes. We talked about that on No Bet's Bard. Did you stay away from this fight for yourself?
Starting point is 02:11:36 Stayed away from it completely, yeah. Dude, that's smart. That was smart. A Pereira by decision, though. Imagine what a Pereira by split. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That would have been. A big number. Let's see what it was. Let's see what it was. Yeah. So for an update, I'm just going by at MAFighting.com, a.k. Lee, our official score. Yeah, what does he say?
Starting point is 02:12:00 After five rounds, 49.45 Crawford. Yeah, I'm seeing a lot of Crawford having a lot of success. Just hang in there, another three and a half round. Yes, Frank, yes. Parlay pals trying to cash on the over eight and a half. That's Frank's pick.
Starting point is 02:12:14 Good pick, Frank. Let's see. What were you saying, Gene? Who, Pereira by Split plus 1600. We're trying to take a trip to conspiracy corner. It's still right there, Mike. It's still right there.
Starting point is 02:12:30 It's definitely going to happen. Izzy Alex. Izzy Alex three, these two are drawn together. Yeah. It's going to happen. The blood gods won it. Shout out to Barera, bro. Shout out to the blood gods.
Starting point is 02:12:41 Yeah. Let's see. I'm waiting to hear what Alex has to say. Izzy, I'll go to Sydney right now. We fight for vacant light heavyweight title. Okay. Oh. Some business to solve.
Starting point is 02:13:03 All right. Dude, if him and Izzy don't fight. It's it'll be a sad day. And they're gonna fight again. Pretty much. It's going to happen. It feels like the fates are drawing and then back together.
Starting point is 02:13:12 Yeah, but we gotta wait, not now, we can't do it now. He's got to do the DDP thing. 18 months ago, this guy was fighting Andreas Michaelitis. Now he's already been a UFC champion and he just beat Jan Blahovic. He's about to fight for a time.
Starting point is 02:13:27 In his job, this guy is... In 10, like, within 11 M.A. Fights. That's wild. He's speed running a whole. of Fame. You have two careers in my record time. Yes, dude. He's eight and two. I'm kind of disappointed that he's at double-digit MMA fights now. I loved when he was at the single digit. Perreira looks like he wants to just fight somebody else. Beast, man. Yeah. You learned a lot
Starting point is 02:14:02 about Alex Pereira in that fight. He's got a lot about him. He's got the monster can in his hand, and he's like, give me the water. Give me the water. I want all the water. Dude, the chaos between him and Yerry is just going to be on a real. If Pereira fights Yeri, good night. That's the fight. It's got to be, right? To that, it's got to be. You know, like, Dave is not even
Starting point is 02:14:25 in Salt Lake City. He's in Italy right now, just so excited right now that he gets to put that fight together. God, where do you put it with main event somewhere? If Connor doesn't fight in December, that's the main event for December. That's such a badass fight, dude. Or you wait.
Starting point is 02:14:41 You know, we'll I don't know. Where do they end? Hey, Walker Puehler in the house. Wow, all right. Shut out, I guess. Carl Malone with the cigar in his mouth. Boo! Carl Malone.
Starting point is 02:14:59 I mean, just so unlikable, Carleone. D.C. You've offended a couple people in the control room. Louisiana zone. Shaheen, we got to rip some more packs. We got a BJ pen out of 10. Only 10 in the world. And then I have to get absolutely run
Starting point is 02:15:15 in UFC 5 by Connor for the 487 straight time. Shaheen, enjoy the main event, my man. I will have fun. I mean, what else can we say? That fight is going to be incredible. We're all going to have fun. We're all going to have fun.
Starting point is 02:15:30 What we're about to watch is about to end up on the fight of the year list. There's no jinx in it. It's going to be great. I don't care what happens. There's no moment of the man. You're the man, Shaheen. Enjoy.
Starting point is 02:15:39 Love you guys. Thanks, brother. There's Shadi. There is no moment of the year coming from this one. We already had that there. Eric Lewis. Oh, yeah. Moment of the year.
Starting point is 02:15:48 Give it an SB, give it an Oscar, give it an Emmy, give it whatever you mean. All the awards. That could win an EGOT. I think that Derek Lewis moment earlier can win an EGOT. Man, standing back up, it's time. It's time. Someone to get silver wrapped around their waist. Man, I'm not going to lie, I was expecting to be a little bit more locked into this Crawford fight.
Starting point is 02:16:05 Just kind of scoreboard watching here. Total dominance from Crawford at the halfway point. Incredible performance. And not a good start. And not a good start. A lot of people feel like he lost the first round, and it's just been off Crawford ever since. He's turned it around.
Starting point is 02:16:21 Best of the Best, number one, pound for pound? Yeah. Seems like it, man. No, no, no, anyway, he's got a case. Oh, yes. But Crawford is making it something's happening. Someone finished? I don't know.
Starting point is 02:16:43 I'm just looking at our Slack channel, and someone just said, oh, bud, with lots of exclamation. points, but that can mean anything the way that it was... Oh, bud? What if you got a... It must have been another knockdown. It must have been another knockdown. Talks about
Starting point is 02:16:59 maybe a towel being thrown in on the spent side. The spendth? A towel? Possible. That's not good for a new friend. Pick up the towel. They just dropped it by accident. He dropped them twice in the seventh round. He might have slipped. A 10-7 round seven according to M.A. Fighting's official score. 69-61.
Starting point is 02:17:18 Knocked him down three times. Supposedly around seven is what I'm seeing now. What was your bet, Frank? Over eight and a half? Yes. Look, man, people slip. You never know. Hey, look.
Starting point is 02:17:34 Anything can happen. Anything can happen. It's about time for the BMF title. It's about time for the BMF title. But let's open some packs first. Yes. Let's do it. I did have a little side bet on the fight to end in rounds
Starting point is 02:17:48 seven through 12, I believe. I wouldn't mind that. Ooh. What was the price of egg on that? Plus 260. Good. It was a big, big favorite for it to go to the decision. All right, let's keep a rolling.
Starting point is 02:18:02 Jordan Levitt. Okay. Saeed Jakub. Okay. Cheyenne Vittlissimus. Al Jemann Sterling. Hamzot Chima. Tabitha Ritchie.
Starting point is 02:18:14 Sean Woodson. A little Amanda Nunez. Not glittery, but sparkly. And then a, I think he's like the third. Tito Ortiz hall monitor we've got. I feel like we just get one of those every time. Let's keep it moving. Let's keep it moving and groving.
Starting point is 02:18:36 Jalen Turner. Shout out. Sergei Pavlovich. Shout out. Danil Berrioush. I'm having such a hard time getting that out. Benil Daryush, not Daniel Berriush. Yes.

Starting point is 02:20:11 I'm not just the biggest leech fan on earth. I've seen him get a knockout live in person. Then I have a out of 10, leech as well, and now I have a leach auto. Nice. Me and the leech, bro. Cut from the same cloth. Martine Moudet.

Starting point is 02:20:38 Hot-so. Is it the only autograph we'll get? Probably the only autograph we'll get. We're hoping to switch up these boxes here soon. Shout to Panini. You know, I was hiking the other day. Yeah, they're really good for hiking. Pat Sabatini.

Starting point is 02:21:09 And then Israel, the last stylebender, Adasanya. A nickname. We got the nickname in it. Interesting. What is Justin Gatchie walking out to? Is this Beethoven? No.
Starting point is 02:21:23 Some sort of mix. I'm down with this. I like this. This is ferocious. I'm going to hit up the person who's absolutely going to know the answer to this question. Who's that?
Starting point is 02:21:35 Is Earl Spence still up? Oh, come. Let me take a gander if you don't mind. By the way, we have a Mr. New York Rick on the line. Red. We're hitting round nine. Looking good, man. They're in round nine?
Starting point is 02:21:50 They're about to start round nine. We needed to make 90 seconds. You got eyes on Crawford and Spence right now, Rick? I'm watching. I'm watching. We need 30 more seconds, baby. 30 more seconds. Come on, baby.
Starting point is 02:22:00 We're sweating out. We got the horses going. Wow, it just engaged you with the prolonged law. How freaking good is Bud Crawford, man? Listen, dude, we haven't been able to watch that much, but we're hearing that he's dominating. We heard he's dominating. The internet's faulty.
Starting point is 02:22:19 You know, I paid big money for the pay-per-view, and it's not coming through. We made it. We made it. Is there everybody down? Everybody. Frank was the last leg. Hit the gong.
Starting point is 02:22:31 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's hit the gong, man. baby. Boom. Good job, Frank. Now I'm comfortable with Errol Spence's team throwing in the towel. Just now. Now I'm good.
Starting point is 02:22:42 He threw it in? No, I'm saying. Oh. Now we can. Now we can. Great pick, Frank. Now that we may be. Looked every bit of a minus 500.
Starting point is 02:22:51 Looked every bit of a great pick, Frank. By the way, Justin Gagey walking out to Fallen Kings by Tribal Seeds. Alex Perez. No, no, no. It's Beethoven. Have we always had this camera? Remember?
Starting point is 02:23:03 Carlos Oldberg. Yeah, you're just now seeing it, man. We picked a, we got a BJ Penn out of 10 earlier. I know you're a big fan of that one. Legend. The goat. We just got an autographed leech. Ian Gary.
Starting point is 02:23:15 Shout out. I have to bring this on my next hiking trip. Phil Roe. Wow. Shut up. Beautiful. Malie. Not going to lie.
Starting point is 02:23:31 I didn't know what that one was. The fearless? The fearless was fire. Is the last? Oh, two more packs? Well, I'm already going to go ahead and ruin it. We're getting another fearless. Let's go ahead and take a peek at who that is.
Starting point is 02:23:43 Francis and Ghanu, Fearless. That's a pretty one. That's a pretty one. I mean, Cheetos is the perfect way to describe it. I think I've already picked up on this. They kind of just front load. Yeah, they sort of just, a Zhang Sparkle. They sort of just front load the top of the box.
Starting point is 02:23:59 You get the two colors, and then you're like, oh, that's cool. And then you have to work through a bunch of, like, the more base-level packs. Yeah. A little Jonathan Pierce, JSP, shout out. But you work through, like, the base level packs. Bud Crawford. Finish. Finish.
Starting point is 02:24:15 Wow. Round nine? Tower or? I miss. I just looked back and saw the fight was over. Wow. I'm not sure if you knocked them out, but I wouldn't be surprised if the towel came in. Masterclass.
Starting point is 02:24:26 We're saying absolutely master class. Yep, round nine. Wow. Round nine stoppage. But not before the parley pals. Pound for pound. Completed the mission. Harley boys.
Starting point is 02:24:37 Yeah, he's number one. I mean, there's a conversation. Look, like, Canello is always going to be in that conversation. In a way, definitely helped himself earlier this week, last week. I even forget when that happened. Was that Tuesday of this week? In a way, helped himself. But yeah, when you beat Errol Spence and stop him, that's a number one pound for
Starting point is 02:25:01 for me. Yeah. And just, hey, you watch them more than us. I'll take your word for it. In a one-sided affair, too. It's not like you just, like, caught him and stopped them. Like, he just beat him from pillar to post, dropped them three times.
Starting point is 02:25:15 Nasty, nasty stuff by Bud. All right, this is my favorite MMA fight that could have been booked, and then they booked it. I'm so excited for us. How you feeling, man? Just engaged you about. Shout out to Crawford for stopping it right before this start starts. Incredible.
Starting point is 02:25:30 Incredible. He did a huge for us. And we also have to remind the fans, Big Fish, Earl Spence, fighting on Shark Week. Terrence Crawford had to overcome that as well. I mean, you're smart, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:25:41 Euros Medich beating Matthew Semmelzberger, who's now 0 and 2 on Shark Weeks? People sleep on effective Shark Week having on fighters, man. I can't wait for No Betts Barred a year from now. What fights will be made, who knows? I've watched a ridiculous amount of Shark Week this year, boys. Are you enjoying? What's the good one about a...
Starting point is 02:25:59 What's your favorite shark? It was like a haunted lighthouse out in the middle of the ocean. They went diving for some great whites. didn't see him. A big bull shark. That's not a shark. I'm a big bull shark. Bull sharks are nice.
Starting point is 02:26:14 Ferocious, man. It's scary. What's the most? Here comes Fourier. Yeah. It's a James Brown. Good walkout. Poria.
Starting point is 02:26:19 Great walkout. Great walkout. He looks ready to roll. He looks ready to roll. What's the most interesting fact about sharks you've learned this week? Is Dustin Porrier going to be affected by the elevation here? Is Justin Gachie's training at elevation going to be the difference in this fight? I'm going to say it's not something I'm focusing on that much, dude.
Starting point is 02:26:40 Justin Porier is a lightweight in unbelievable shape. He's an absolute dog. I don't. I just have a hard time it being like, man, Justin just outmased him the whole way. Refed, ref called off the Crawford five, by the way. It was not a towel. He was getting battered and the ref just stopped it. I'm seeing the video now.
Starting point is 02:27:01 Yeah, round, round nineer. Shout out to the ref. Frank with the perfect. Frank with the perfect pick. I mean, just beautiful, Frankie. Oh, my gosh. Wow, it really just barely made it. God bless.
Starting point is 02:27:12 Wow. I'm seeing it now, dude. Yeah. And Earl Spence was battered. Yeah. Wow. I'm going to have to go back and watch that whole thing tomorrow. That's what I'm doing tomorrow and I is re-watch.
Starting point is 02:27:25 I'm going to re-watch that fight when I get home. It's one of those that it's one-way traffic, but because of who Errol Spence is, the one-way traffic is worth the watch. You know what I mean? Like, if somebody tells you, like, it's a one-sided fight, sometimes you're just like, and I flip it off. This is not one of those. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:27:41 Well, I will go home and watch Derek Lewis, Marcus, Sergio, Delima, 14 times in a row. Oh, yeah. We'll watch that fight. Yes. Oh, my God. What did you make of that, Rick? I mean, was that not the most unbelievable thing? Yeah, Derek Lewis all week has just been saying, like, you guys think I'm cooked.
Starting point is 02:27:59 I promise you I'm not. I'm showing up with abs. And I'm going to do the damn thing. And guess what? He backed up every single thing. he said this week. So shout out to shout out to the Black Beast. Like, what a performance. And like literally took up
Starting point is 02:28:13 the shorts this time. Like didn't wait for Joe just pulled him straight off. So, uh, well done. Well done all around by Derek Lewis. He should, I mean, he should just win all the bonuses. No, I mean, he just won them all. I expect he will get, he will get a nice little bonus. Yeah. Incredible.
Starting point is 02:28:30 And maybe a new contract with a lot of money. They should probably just go ahead and take care of that right now because he's about his over as he's ever. I know, but wouldn't Derek Lewis like outside the UFC also be so much fun. It really would. Where's he going? PFL? We're getting the Angina.
Starting point is 02:28:44 FC? That one, I don't know if I need to see again. But BKFC would be fun. Be super fun. Well, let's go to the tail of tape. One more time tonight. Let's go. For the silver.
Starting point is 02:29:00 Dustin Porre, Justin Gachi 2. Dustin Poye closing is a minus 150 favorite comeback of Justin Gage plus 130. There you have. 34 years of age. The similarity is just unbelievable. Gatchi two inches taller. Apoyer with a two inch reach advantage. Both men made weight like professionals.
Starting point is 02:29:17 Only one thing left to do. Wait for Bruce Buffer to introduce him. And then they're just going to beat the hell out of each other. And we're just going to react all together in just an unbelievable way. Derek Cleary. There go. Oh, dang, your guy, Frankie, you're a fair fight. Yes.
Starting point is 02:29:40 Porre looks like he's about to go on a bike ride. Here we go, man. It's all on the line. Let's go. Let's go. It's happening. Bruce getting ready. There we go. The arena is just like, the tension in the arena right now must be just incredible.
Starting point is 02:30:03 It was completely silent until the end now from Bruce Buffer. The official pick from GC, Dustin Porre, minus 130. That's what I got. him out. What is he sitting at now? Probably right around there. He lines from 50, closed up. Yeah, man, when it comes to confidence, I really have none. Where are you at right now? Yeah, Winning Week. Yeah, Winning Week. Locked up.
Starting point is 02:30:27 Spence lost, bad, as we were just saying, but that's all right. Can make it back here with Justin, with Dustin Porre. I forgot to bring in... What's up? Go ahead, G. G. You go and then I go. I was going. I forgot to bring a shot glass, but hot sauce will be drank. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 02:30:46 If Dustin Bore pulls this off, I can promise you that. Love that. Do we think they come out like a house on fire, or do we think they're a little more trepidations? We were talking about that earlier. We think, me and Mike decided that we think it's going to be like, they come out and a little bit of feeling out, and then as soon as one, like, throws a big shot,
Starting point is 02:31:05 they just see red and then it's on from that. They will revert back to who they really are in this fight. that, well, I'll say this. I mean, that feels more like Justin, if I'm being honest. And there was a time where he was kind of like curbing that a little bit, especially when he won that interim title against Tony. But it feels a little more like Justin. I feel like Dustin's been real patient, like in all his fights.
Starting point is 02:31:29 But that doesn't mean he won't plant his feet and throw down because he does have that dog in him. But he, he, I feel like he picks his shots really, really well. don't get me wrong he's there to be hit there are certainly some openings and i think justin has has the power to crack him but if i'm if i'm betting on somebody to not get drawn into it i would say dustin's probably the one but i don't know what to expect who do i that's the best part about this let's get it all you're correct oh we got stevo watch over under one and a half take down attempts in this fight under way under oh baby nah i think i think i think Justin is going to go for a couple.
Starting point is 02:32:11 You don't think it. Five last fight. All right. Over under. Look at Jorge. Zero. 0.5. I would not, I would not shoot on Justin Gagee.
Starting point is 02:32:18 I'll tell you that. That dude's sprawl is something mean. Like he might, he might crack your face with his hips if he sprawls. I wouldn't shoot on him. If anybody, I think it would be, it would be Justin looking for a takedown maybe,
Starting point is 02:32:29 but I think, I think they came to throw, if I'm being honest. Here we go. We're about to find out. Here we go. About to start. I'm so excited.
Starting point is 02:32:38 God, I'm so excited. here we go we are underway we're 10 seconds in so i'm so tense right now i know i don't know like kick from gaichie porre right back with one sides kicked the body from porre that's going to be a big weapon for pori i think in this fight oh another nice like kick from gaichie wow uh i'm nervous we're 30 seconds since i'm not officially nervous one thing i love about this fight is as their careers have gone on they kind of like converged in styles like they actually became like more similar in styles to the point
Starting point is 02:33:20 that I expect we're gonna see it a lot of this like volley leg kick leg kick return yeah right oh nice little combo there from Justin getting out before you're starting to land of the body and that is going to be something he's gonna yeah nice little red mark
Starting point is 02:33:37 on uh gachi's body oh nice counter from just yeah Justin's Justin's countering well this is he's getting this is getting poor you to bite on a couple of feints too Going for the body kick again. Love the body kicks. I don't do these leg kicks, man.
Starting point is 02:33:54 He is kicking his... This is old school. Justin Riddall is my man. That's the looking tan. Been out in the summer sun, man. Taking a play in New York Rick's book. He did look tan. Oh, nice sneaky right hand from Porier.
Starting point is 02:34:13 I got that super harsh white light going right now. Yeah, yeah. You look like you're being held hostage somewhere. These leg kicks, man. If he keeps landing these, these are going to add up, bro. We're a minute 40 in, and he's already landed like six of them. I remember watching Justin in WSOF, and this was the game plan, was just like batter people's legs until they couldn't walk.
Starting point is 02:34:35 I mean, Justin had so much success with the leg kicks in the first fight. Dustin keeps landing these body kicks, man. And Dustin just goes right back to the calf kick. It's a smart. It's very, very smart from Dustin to go for the body like that. Oh, nice. combination from Gaiji. Oh,
Starting point is 02:34:56 head kick, partially blocked for Dustin Giori. I mean, that was decently blocked there. He ate that. Yeah, it looks like he looks on his face. A little welt on the head already for... Yeah, on the right side.
Starting point is 02:35:13 Oh, nice. The counters from Gage have been on point. Yeah, this is a dangerous game. Oh, nice little uppercut there. Yeah. Oh. Oh, patient Gachi is a little. load. This is going to be rough.
Starting point is 02:35:33 Oh, nice. Oh, wow. Nice left hand from Geishi. Close that nice exchange, the beautiful left hand. Oh, nice right from Dustin, dude. Chucky's shocking him tonight. A little slip, a little slip there. Don't, don't scare me like that, Justin. Oh, nice left hand right in the eye of Justin. Yeah, wow, that's bothering Justin. He did not like that at all. That's not a poke. That was a punch. Oh, yeah. That's why.
Starting point is 02:36:02 Oh, big left hand. It's right into the body. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Oh, but Gajie's just, this is, this is him seeing red. Oh, nice left hand from Gichi. He was hurt by that body shot, no? Like it looked like it.
Starting point is 02:36:16 Yeah, it looked like it was. Oh, it goes for it again. It's wide open. It's wide open. I feel like as open as the calf is for Justin, the body is for Dustin. Yeah, but Gachi just has a naturally high guard. It's just an Austin on Austin weekend over here. Minute 10.
Starting point is 02:36:33 Oh, big right here from Dustin. Gae is wearing the crimson mask. This is so fascinating. It's like. Oh, now they're just having a couple car crashes every few seconds. Yeah. Nice right there from Justin. And it's still a completely...
Starting point is 02:36:54 I love how Dustin's got to hit the pants pull up hair swipe. Yeah. All right, let's get back to it. Highing them up, just the hair. Herb is just eagle eye, yeah. Herb looks great in there, Frank. Oh, man, barely misses with the head kick. Damn.
Starting point is 02:37:11 Hair cut. That might have been a body attempt and just missed. Another leg kick from here. Yeah, another leg kick. I mean, if you're Justin, this is an okay point to be. Dustin's trying to hunt you. You're sitting on the counters. You can land something in there.
Starting point is 02:37:26 Yep. A tough round to score, I'd probably say Justin. I might say Dustin. I mean, he did have the more damage. The more powerful shots, I think, were from Dustin. Yeah. I mean, it's a hard round. Oh, snap your headback.
Starting point is 02:37:43 Whoa. Nice little finish there for Justin. Man, my God. So far so good. What a freaking round. I'm going to say Dustin, but I got no idea. Y'all are trying to pressure me. I'm going to go Justin.
Starting point is 02:37:56 I got no idea. I'm not giving it into the beer pressure. I'm not giving any of the beer pressure. I'm going Justin there. Just doing more on the feed, having more success. I really think those calf kids. are gonna are gonna we're gonna work on your nines big boys she my nine yeah what does it look like to you i had that you tell me let me see that i don't know frank i mean dude that is a clear
Starting point is 02:38:21 nine i mean clear nine with the like a little dot in the middle or something i don't mean it's an overlap on the oh dude i mean i really think we're we're pulling it pulling it straws here it's a trickle of blood for the also like oh okay okay i got to know frank you got to take the context too man i mean what else could that be 10 look i'm just looking out for our graphics department. Oh, yeah, our graphics department. I mean, what an excellent start to this fight. Ooh.
Starting point is 02:38:48 Man, man. I feel like Dustin could have cut the bangs before the fight, man. That could come into play. Wow, we're already back in the round, too. We're not messing around. Let's go. Rick, wake up over there, man. I know it's sleeping in a hundred, though.
Starting point is 02:39:03 I'm fucking apt. Minutes 145. Odds have pretty much not changed at all. All right. The tactical nature of both guys. Both guys cut shorts obviously needs to be noted. Yes. Increases that.
Starting point is 02:39:18 Very important. Whoa. Porre chance. That is a massive chant. Is that Porriet? Yeah. Wow. Fan fave, bro.
Starting point is 02:39:31 Oh, maybe it's a Herb Dean chant. I don't know. Yeah, that'd be fraying. Thankfully, they're not doing Dustin or Justin. It might be a little confusing. Herbie Dean. What if they just started chanting Austin? Joe's pointing out that it's a gitchie chant
Starting point is 02:39:50 no Oh Oh Big bag flip Oh Holy shit The hell God
Starting point is 02:40:03 What Dude Dude Are you kidding me Put him out Very seriously Whoa Holy
Starting point is 02:40:16 cow Wow that is That was scary, dude. Oh my God. Oh my God. Porre is still down. Wow.
Starting point is 02:40:40 Bro. He absolutely melted Dustin Porre with that kick. Geez, Louise. Dustin blocked it too, which is, like, it must are wrapped around the side. Yeah. Wow. Jeez.
Starting point is 02:41:01 Oh, my Lord. Well, that one delivered. How about that? I mean, God. I've had a loss of words. I'll tell you what, man. Justin Gagey, man. I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 02:41:12 We talked about stakes in this fight and what happens here. I'll tell you what. That Justin Gajy shows up against either Charles Levera or Islam Mockachev. He has a shot to beat either guy. And if somehow Gagey wins. the title, we're going to get this for the third time. Gee, oh, holy cow, man. Just great slide in there by Herb Dean.
Starting point is 02:41:35 Yeah, let's show it out. Great slide in there by Herb Dean. Oh, right around the head. Oh, he went down. That was nasty. Whoa, her. I gotta give you credit, Frank. That was, there was no hokey pokey herb on that one.
Starting point is 02:41:49 Oh. He stole second base and slid in there. Jeez. Wow. When he feels something burst. Patient, patient, Gichi's tough, man. He's tough. Just that hammer right to the head.
Starting point is 02:42:07 And look at this slide. Look at that slide tackle by her. Holy schnikey, man. Wow. Wow, he's right. Oh, dude. There's your BMF. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:42:17 And, dude, Mazelah's going to put the belt. I do it. Mazinah's going to wrap the belt on Gaci. Sheesh. Cor me hand Dude that Like that visual Was unbelievable
Starting point is 02:42:32 Like Anna going crazy DC's like Whoa And Rogan's just like Stunned I am still stunned I can't believe that that just happened Dude
Starting point is 02:42:42 Like he just put him Clean out with a head kick That was That was insane What a card dude What a card man Pour it Oh yeah
Starting point is 02:43:01 I mean, what is it about this? Oh, God. This place and head kicks, man. This place and head kicks. It's like a same thing. Wow. And Usman's team mate is the one doing it instead of. So he said like a side-by-side of Leon kicking Usman in the head
Starting point is 02:43:17 and then Gaichi kicking Poria in the head. And it's like almost identical. Wouldn't it have made sense to wait for this? Couldn't he fight in Abu Dhabi? I mean, that's just me. No, he's not going to do that. Why not? He just gets the winner on a full camp later.
Starting point is 02:43:39 There it is. He doesn't wrap it around his waist? Of course not. He just put it on his shoulder. Oh, Gagy loved that so much. Look at it. I mean, he's like reading it. Is it what was it? No, he's trying to give it away. What does BMF stand for?
Starting point is 02:43:58 I didn't know this whole time. Wow. Sheesh. Bad mother Frankie. That's one way to put it. it. Let's see. It's poetry, man. He just is very poetic right now. He just got some redemption, man.
Starting point is 02:44:26 Dude, we're going to get this again. Wow. Those three, they're going to fight again. You think so? Oh, yeah, dude. It's one to one. They're going to fight again. Wow, that was. Maybe the bell's on the line. Frank, I'm trying to listen to Justin, all right? Oh, really? Is Frank said?
Starting point is 02:44:49 Frank, are you talking off the air? I mean, Rick and I were having a little. little side show. Wow, talking behind our backs. I see how it is. I see how it is, dude. I see how it is, dude. A little smack.
Starting point is 02:45:02 Wow. Dude, that was so incredible. Totally different fights, but still very fascinating matchups, both of them. I am literally shocked, dude. I'm at a loss for words, man. There is nothing to say. I mean, if it's me, like, I don't think we needed to book charmed.
Starting point is 02:45:37 in that fight. We could have had Dustin. Justin. So cool. I'm telling you, man, I am very fascinated about a Justin Gachie fight against either of those two guys. Man. Is that the knockout of the air right now?
Starting point is 02:45:57 Because of like everything you're surrounding it? It's going to be hard at the top. What was the leader in the clubhouse up until now? Oh, my God. I don't know you remember. But that's the one. Izzy's? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 02:46:11 Izzy's probably. Izzy's is up there too, man. I mean, how about yeah, Connor McGregor tweeting Justin, I'll slap you around. That is a fight we have to see at some point. Dude, that's gonna be the one we got. The eyes on Porre, when he goes down,
Starting point is 02:46:30 is like a scary sight. Like, he is, he is out bad. So, yeah, Perry. Izzy is a good one. Bonfeme, just just annihilating Terrence McKinney was nasty
Starting point is 02:46:47 Umar against irony Barcellus is nasty Nah It's easier this Gotta be Stakes Stakes matter For sure
Starting point is 02:46:58 It's probably number two Oh man dude The Dustin thing is like Almost sad Watching it It's like he's like slowly realizes that it happened On the back flip
Starting point is 02:47:12 fucking crazy. Oh, and that looked like a tough legend. Imagine if you fell on Dustin. Man. Justin Gagey, the BMS. You get to hear from Dustin here? I hope not. Usman.
Starting point is 02:47:28 Ah, there's Ali. You knew that was going to happen. That's so crazy that this time 11 months ago, Usman was in the same position Dustin is in. I know, dude. What a fight, man.
Starting point is 02:47:44 What a card. Dude, a sick card. Sick card, man. Really good. Really good. I think all in all, I think $290 will be like the more complete card, but I think this will be the more memorable card.
Starting point is 02:48:02 This will be, I think... This is a fun-ass card, especially the last three-fights. I think you rush back and watch this one more than $2.90. Definitely. Maybe. But $2.90 is probably like the better technical fighting card. Could be a recency bias from... from the
Starting point is 02:48:16 Derek Lewis alone was so, so good one more time here we go replay one more time dude that wow
Starting point is 02:48:27 I mean it does not get better than that it's picture perfect it's unbelievable it's unbelievable dude boom right around the wow
Starting point is 02:48:37 god that is nasty was the hammer fist necessary boom it could have been worse the herb was on I'll get Herb sliding in.
Starting point is 02:48:50 Herb got in their quick. That's the beautiful part. Wow. New York grade this card. Oh, man. I don't, like my brain is scrambled right now. Like 12 out of 10? I don't even know.
Starting point is 02:49:06 That chapter like ruined my like equilibrium. I don't even know what to think anymore. I'm writing it a solid nine. Nine and a half. Dude. 8.7. Wow. I mean, look, it's close to nine.
Starting point is 02:49:26 I don't mind the 8.7. Thanks. I don't like it. I don't know, there were no titles on the line. Excuse me. There was a title on the line. The PMF title. There was no UFC champions on the line.
Starting point is 02:49:40 The violence weight title was on the line. I wish that's what it was called. 100%. Oh, John Anick. John Anick, dropping a hard MFer. The hard one. All right. Joe Rogan
Starting point is 02:49:55 properly saying it's on the belt it's all fair game well New York Rick what a night it was what a night it was what a night it was and it's only 1236 could
Starting point is 02:50:08 I'm speechless I'm speechless bro this the UFC man on fire just on fire fire we get Nashville next week yep Jake Paul Nate Diaz next week
Starting point is 02:50:20 we're both gonna be there we're all gonna be there three of us are going to be in Dallas. Let's go. Very excited about that. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Frank's going to be there.
Starting point is 02:50:29 Do you have any more packs to rip? Nope. Oh, man. We're good, man. Connor still tweeting. He says, I'm the real BMF. He can fight for pennies if he wants, but I want spirits. I call the shots.
Starting point is 02:50:42 I'm in into launch shots. F. Chandler, you want it, call for it. So he's daring Justin Gatchee to call him out. Oh. So he can skis. skip the Chandler fight. I kind of want to see that one. Let's get Connor to the Octagon.
Starting point is 02:51:00 Poor Michael Chandler. He coaches a season of tough and Conner's already moving on. Connor had, Connor was moved on from Chandler like after the first episode. Ugh. He was just like, eh.
Starting point is 02:51:13 This is not. Just get Connor to the Octagon, bro. Yeah. I don't care who he's fighting. Just like anyone. Is Gagey go for the back? We can do all this talking all we want. We need to get a...
Starting point is 02:51:27 If he's not fighting for the title, I mean, I'd fight Connor. December? Connor, Gachy. BMF title fight? Put the title on the line? Well, it seems like that's what Connor wants. So, yeah. Gagey hates Connor.
Starting point is 02:51:44 Like, legit hates him. I think he also doesn't respect Connor McGregor's skills. I think you would think of it as a very, like, easy fight. So I could see him taking that fight. other than like that would be the only fight I could see him taking other than a title shot and I could see him doing it I mean it's it's life-changing stuff money-wise is McGregor gonna be able to get down to 155 I think Gat she would fight him at whatever weight do we go up to one is gait to try to become a bmf double champ by fighting it at 170 oh that I mean they they shoved it down our throats that it's not a divisional title it's just an all-encompassing title so it could be it could happen at any weight class So we had nine finishes out of 11 fights. Amazing.
Starting point is 02:52:29 Amazing. Entertainment value on this card was top notch. And Alex Pereira was one of them. Yeah. Sheesh. And C.J. Vergara. Four. No, they're saying four decisions.
Starting point is 02:52:41 Four decisions? Yeah. Really? Oh, no way. The finishes just felt so good that you're forgetting that there were some decisions at all. No, there was two. Vergara and Pereira. That's it.
Starting point is 02:52:55 Everything else is a finish. I think they're correcting. see right now. Yeah. Maverick got a finish. Medich got a finish. Wow. All right.
Starting point is 02:53:04 So we're back here another three weeks. 2.92. Boston. Boston. Bastion. Al Jemaine Sterling. Sugashon O'Malley.
Starting point is 02:53:14 So I'll be spending the entire fight week in Boston with Jose before coming here on the Saturday of the card. So I have a feeling it's coming out because I'll wear some sort of jersey or, I mean, I'll be decked out Boston stuff and then hearing the hard hours from everybody for four days, it's coming.
Starting point is 02:53:32 And it's going to be, it's coming. It's going to be a lot of it. I say lean into it. It's going to happen. It's going to happen. These watch parties bring it out more because I get really, really loud. Yeah. We got a tweet from Michael, Michael Chandler saying, well, now, Justin Gachie has the BMF belt.
Starting point is 02:53:53 He has to defend it against a worthy adversary. So now both Connor and Michael Chandler are trying to get fights at Gagee because they're not going to fight each other. Yeah. Let's just get him to the octagon. Gigi already put the boots to Michael Chandler for 15 minutes. So I don't know. Oh, yeah, yeah, dude.
Starting point is 02:54:11 All right. Gigi, yeah. We'll see. Wow. Boys, that was, that was something. That was something. That was something, man. Literally a game.
Starting point is 02:54:22 Did the UFC win the night? if we're doing that probably well let's wait for Horizon and Belator I mean it doesn't matter they're not to like none of that stopping this
Starting point is 02:54:34 but maybe maybe Bud Crawford won the night probably in the mainstream no joke Herb Dean Herb Dean won the night Great slide that's fine It was a great slide by Herb Dean
