This is the UFC 295 watch party.
Let's go, everybody. Welcome to the UFC 295 watch party here on MAAfighting.com's YouTube channel.
I am Mike Heck. That is the legend G.C. How we doing, my man?
I mean, I'm doing great. We're in the middle of a battle right now. We got Stevie Erseg going.
Hey, him, you are on the over one and a half. I am on Steve Erseg and Erseg by K.
So I'm going crazy in the first round. You're like, please, we got to get to the over one and a half.
It looked like a sub too. I was like, not the sub, not the sub. We need the KOs, Stevie.
So, yeah, I mean, this is great. There's nothing better.
and then went right when we come on.
We're starting round two of the featured prelims.
So I'm doing great, man.
This has been a wild card already.
A lot of craziness.
Jamal Emmer's with a big knockout to sort of set the tone.
We've had a couple of really good fights.
The Flyway fight was really good.
Oh, he heard him again.
Oh, the Borchette fight was incredible.
Oh, the Borshev was amazing.
I was on the under and that one.
That one kind of heard, but that was an incredible fight.
Yes.
I mean, the back and forth in Borshap,
and when he gets those combos going,
it's a thing of beauty,
but Sadiqat had an insane round.
too. Yes. So yeah, it's a, it's a rare treat when we get to talk about a fight that's on before
the actual main card. We're about a minute into round two of Ersegg versus. Oh, man, Costa landed
a big right hand there. Oh, God, this is getting dicey. They're chucking them. Oh, this is getting
icy. Oh, they are really chucking them. Stevie. Settle it down. Settle it down. Cossa's making it
uglier. It's need, you know, I like this pace. You need another minute 20, huh? Another minute 20.
We could do it.
We're here in beautiful New York City.
I mean, if you couldn't tell by Lady Liberty,
standing over my shoulder,
but the funniest part is like,
we literally are in New York City.
Literally.
Like, we're a quick subway ride away
from Madison Square Garden.
So the theme fits for this one.
We've turned New York into New York
here in the studio.
All right, it feels like you've settled down.
Whoa!
Oh, no, Costa again!
These guys are bringing it.
They're all bringing it.
The guys and gals are all bringing.
Yeah, Erssegson dropped them in round one.
I think you got that,
but Costa is firing here.
Now he's going for tape.
Take downs.
All right.
Oh,
almost got it.
Get up, get up.
All right, there we go.
Now in retrospect,
I'm kind of wishing we got the,
we got the sub there by Stevie.
He's looking dicey in round two here.
A little bit, a little bit.
You just throw nice elbows.
Costa.
Yeah, it's trying to get the back.
Costa's having a lot of success
in the second round.
All right.
This is a good little scrap here.
Oh, gets him down.
It's a take.
Oh, is he mounted?
Yeah.
I think so.
I think he's a.
Maybe half?
Yeah, he's not for him.
I'm sorry.
All right, so we need 10 more seconds.
I think we're going to get there.
I think we're going to get there.
Not looking good for Steve.
All right.
Yeah.
So have one, there you go.
It's in play.
We're good.
We're in play here.
Okay.
Frank, how much tape did we put on my back, bro?
You need more tape, man?
No, no, no, no.
No more tape, please.
I can feel it.
I can feel my shirt sticking to me.
Ooh.
Oh, this is getting...
Ooh, looks like Steve's going to get out.
Oh, there.
He goes. Now punch.
Let's like Connor hit his...
Yeah, we'll see. We'll see.
Nice little fight here. Nice little featured prelim.
Yeah.
I feel like nothing's got anything on these main card fights.
Oh my God.
These main fights are absolute fangers.
I'm so excited for this main event.
I'm so excited for this co-main event.
I mean, those two alone sell the entire card.
Just the unpredictability of both fights.
They're coin flips.
They're finishers.
I love all the fighters.
I know I'm rocking the Poetan shirt,
but like I got no dog in the fight.
I just love the shirt.
I mean, the fact that he even made this shirt is insane.
So, I mean, you got to support.
But in terms of wanting someone to win,
I'm cool with either.
In your betting career, which you're up over 100 units right now.
Do you remember a pay-per-view card
where there were two title fights on the card
and they were both nearly pickums on both?
Not in recent memory.
Going for the arbor?
Oh, I thought he was going to throw the knee there.
Oh, to a downed opponent.
Not that I can think of.
Yeah, it's wild to see the betting lines.
I mean, there's only so many cards where you get the double title fight.
And they're almost never like coin flip odds.
Like, it's almost, there's always like a clear favorite in one of them.
Yeah.
Less than a minute left in round two here.
It was like this is a scrappy battle here.
It was like this is a cost around.
Ersig's starting to wear, trying to wear on them against the fence.
getting very gritty here.
Oh, Costa, whoa!
Costa is just...
Costa!
It is a brawler, dude.
Man.
Wow.
This is, uh, what a round.
Oh, man, oh, man.
Oh, he's trying to get the arm!
Dude, this, oh, no.
Erseggs crafty.
Yes, yeah.
Crafty.
I mean, exciting little fight here, though.
Exciting little scrap.
Flyweight's just going.
Just getting after it.
You may have to switch flyweight unders to flyweight overs.
No, I can't talk about that. That hurts. That hurts.
Did you guys go back to it?
Went back to it for the Josh Van Fight.
It didn't work out.
Did not work out for it.
It was close.
Yeah, they were throwing, man.
Oh!
The man was walking them down.
Full amount.
That was a nice elbow from Erseg.
Man, he stuck to him like Gloop.
Yeah, that was smart.
All right, here we go, round three.
Good start.
Good fight here.
All these fights have been really good.
The energy levels are high.
I feel like it's all just a crescendo in, too.
I mean
Diego Lopez is a fucking
is an incredible fight
Diego Lopez Pat Cappetini
Oh my God
I mean Matt Fervalo Benoit Santhini
is just like
That's that's television right there
That's cinema right there
I cannot wait for that one
This is that that is the Shane Burgos
Billy Q of this card
What does it get overshadowed by them
Probably the main event
What did we have after Shane Burgos
Billy Q two years ago
We had Chandler Gaethe first
And then Billy
Q Shane. Oh yeah, because it was the Trevor
Whitman Trio on that card.
So they bumped Chandler Gachey to the first
fight. So Chandler Gage had their battle
then Burgos Billy Q had like
an incredible fight, but
it was overshadowed because everyone was so
burnt out by Gagie Chandler.
Insane night. Insane out of fights.
Jamal Emers kicks things off with a 49
second knockout. His first finish in three
years, first UFC finish too,
which is kind of crazy considering he's had a bunch
of fights there. We mentioned Josh
Van and Kevin Borhaus, super fun
fight. John Cassadena gets a
decision win over Kyeongho Kong.
Jared Gordon? What a moment for him?
Oh, man. First round finish of
Mark Madsen. In MSG, too.
Oh, it was awesome. It was just beautiful stuff right there.
Very emotional speech. And now we're at round three here.
Ten seconds in. I mean, I feel like
Costa's about to just go for Baroque again.
Yeah. He was having success with it every time.
I'm curious how
the judges scored that second round.
I feel like that was Costa. I feel like we're
one-one right now. Yeah. Ersai did get
mount, landing some shots at the end of the round.
Yeah, it was a nice, as John Anick said, it was a nice visual ending for Steve Arsac.
Ooh, goes for a knee.
Unsuccessful.
Costs are very disciplined here.
This is probably the most disciplined I've seen him in quite some time.
Usually he's very reckless.
Look at this.
We're getting the clock on a featured pleuralin.
That's how you know it's a big night here.
Oh, yes.
Back in New York.
You've been here.
I mean, obviously you guys said the great show last night.
kudos to
Oh, thanks, man.
Thank you, guys.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Thanks, Mike.
And you too, Frank.
You did it be incredible.
Keeping everything on time.
Frank killed it, man.
I mean, the luchador mask was amazing.
I can't get it off.
Yeah, you still got it on, huh?
Yeah.
It was kind of funny every time I went back and talked to Frank.
He's just staring back at me in a luchador mask.
I'm just like, you can take it off, man.
Whenever you feel, you can take it off.
Do you feel like the post-event vibes rose a bit after being at City Winery last night?
Or does it feel a little different?
than last year with Izzy and Pereira?
Or how would you describe what...
You're saying like...
You're saying like how I feel about this event?
Or just like the area in general, like the buzz.
Like if this is John Jones-Stepe,
I feel like there'd be like a little more energy in the air.
I think it definitely would be.
Even though I like these fights better on paper,
I think we're going to get better fights here.
There's just something about a John Jones fight
where like it starts breaking into like the norm of like
people that aren't going to normally watch UFC
are going to tune in because John Jones's fight.
It just feels bigger.
Plus, you're getting Steepa back, too.
So, like, it feels like there would be more buzz,
but, I mean, for the people that know,
I mean, how can you not be decided for these last two?
Ooh, big takedown by Erse.
Erseig, nice.
Right back up for Costa, though.
Costa, doing great job.
Some backwards hands.
Do I see a little Rutgers, Scarlett's night hat right there?
Shout out the jersey, Piscataway.
Love it, repping.
Oh, man.
Ersek trying to get that take down.
Costa hanging on for Deer Life.
He definitely doesn't want to get taken down here.
Costa gets some separation.
Here we go.
It feels like Costa is just like a pack of dynamite.
Oh, good right head.
Here we go.
Ersek trying to get in against the fence.
Well, I mean, a lot of control time for Ersec.
Don't know how much damage he's done this round.
But this is going to be tough.
Ooh, going for the day.
Oh, there's Adam.
Costa defending very nicely.
Sattikov and Borch-Borchev.
How did Annik pronounce it?
Yeah, Borshov.
It was almost like the V-U-Sy sign.
I mean, they threw me off, and then how did they say Rebeki?
Rebenchki?
Yeah, man, these names are tough for me this time out.
I'm glad I know all the main card guys.
I've got them all, pretty much all wrong.
Yeah, Sadikov, Borshav was incredible.
Rebetsky gets a quick finish over Roosevelt-Robberts,
performed like the biggest favorite on the card should.
And then Lupi Godinez, another win.
She is just on fire.
Is that five fights this year?
Four fights this year?
Yeah.
She'll be top 10 at 115 by the time the rankings come around.
A couple nice knees there from Costa.
Yeah, this is super close fight.
Feels like this is an Erseg round.
He's been controlling it for the majority of 345.
We'll see if Costa's got anything left for the last 110.
Going for a takedown.
Trying?
Almost got him lifted up.
Oh, he fell down.
Oh, this.
Oh, right back up.
Right back up for our sake.
Back up against the cage for Costa.
He wants it more.
What do we think?
We got any live odds, Frankie?
Yeah, what he got?
Great call.
Ask and you shall receive.
Wow.
I mean, look at this.
We can't provide live odds.
The master of the odds, man.
Ask and you shall we see you momentarily?
Yes, sir.
Yes, sir.
It looks like they're actually off the board,
so it looks like you're clear of any wrongdoing here.
Are you implying that draft kings has done?
something wrong? No, I think it's just so late in the fight that they're off the board.
Oh, I got it. Feels like you're going to draft games. That's all.
Uh, yeah. Does it feel like I'm off center a little bit? Do I need to, do I need to get on center?
Now it feels like I'm off center on the chair. Is it? Do we need to tape you to the chair?
What I guess? No, I think right here. I think right here. I think that was a little too far over.
I think you should be worried about the shadows from your hat. Yeah, you don't, it's a, you know, but now this looks weird.
I mean, not wrong. Now I kind of look like Mario. Maybe you just,
turn the hat backwards.
I'll do that at some point tonight.
There it is.
I'm going to say that's a Stevie Erseg win.
I think that's rounds one and round three for old Steve.
Could be.
Could be. It doesn't look very...
Yeah, I was going to say Stevie doesn't look too thrilled.
Costel feels...
As a guy holding a K-O ticket on Erseg,
that really got close in round one.
Yes.
Let's see what the old Twitter scorecards have to say, eh?
Yes.
I assume that was a dart throw on Mr. Erseg?
Yeah, by K-O-M.
Yeah, it's plus 600. Come on.
Yeah, take a little shot right there.
Take a little shot right there.
So what was last, how would you describe last night?
Oh, man.
Super cool to watch.
What was like being there with the guests and everything, and Cheeto was super funny?
Yeah, so I mean, this was something that's been in the works for a minute now.
So, yeah, it was cool to see it to come to fruition.
And I thought it was excellent.
I thought the stream looked great.
All the guests showed up.
I thought all of them did well up on the stage.
The crowd was high energy.
maybe one or two people who had a, you know,
a couple too many beverages,
a couple too many refreshments.
But, I mean, everyone was still kind of respectful.
So, I mean, it was great, man.
I had a blast.
I had a fantastic time.
Hopefully there can be more in the future.
Maybe not in our home city.
Maybe we take it on the road, you know?
I like it.
I like it.
I love the reveal of Dylan Dennis.
Like, almost as Ariel was giving him the intro,
he just appears out of nowhere.
And the place went bananas for him.
was great.
Stevie Erseg.
Unanimous decision goes to
Steve Erseg.
Two and O in the Earsing.
He goes, Stevie!
Add a boy, kid!
Good fight.
That a boy, Stevie.
He ain't gonna get a post-fight interview
because the main card is about to kick off.
He's looking for Joe Rogan,
but I don't think he's gonna find him.
Thoughts on the Venom Emerald gear?
Eh.
Didn't they do Sapphire or something earlier?
John Jones, when he was walking,
he was wearing like a blue venom?
It looks like a youth soccer jersey.
I don't like it, dude.
I'm just going to be, I'm just going to be up front.
I don't, I don't like it.
I really think.
I said this to you.
It should be fitted.
To me, oh, we got Big D.T.
Donald Trump and Kim Barr.
And Rockson.
Tucker Carlton.
Your guy, Frankie.
Frank.
Tucker's in the house.
Frank and TC go way back.
Way, way back.
Oh, man.
I love Dave.
MSG going on.
I love Trump walking out, like, as if.
he's a UFC fighter and like
and the people in his corner
are Dana, Kid Rock, and Tucker
Carlson.
It's so ridiculous sin.
What a visual. Wow. His secret security kind of
looks like Robbie Lawler.
He kind of does. Yeah.
What a spectacle this is.
It's super funny that Trump's getting all the cheers
but Kid Rock is milking it like they're all cheering for him.
I bet half people don't even realize Kid Rock's even there.
Bruce Bumper and D.C. D.C. D.C.
Jared Lito.
Jared. Yeah. Jared Letto right there.
I mean, look at this.
Jared Little, who's that next to him?
He's like a documentarian, like he's a climber.
A lot of stars.
A lot of stars in the house tonight.
Most of them are going to be there, probably for the co-main event.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I wonder why Donald Trump is in town.
For the fights.
Of course.
Yeah, you come for the fights, checking on the building.
I mean, just a couple blocks away.
He's got a little tower or something, you know?
Probably went to the live on May hour last night.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That would have been.
Yeah, I saw Action Bronson in the stands.
I saw Stevo in the stands.
All the dignitaries are out today.
I mean, I love it.
What did you think of last night, Frankie?
I thought it was great, man.
It was very good.
One of the best.
I thought Danes was, I mean, look, there was still some of the Danes.
I'll fight Francis and beat him.
But it's kind of normal.
Yeah, I mean, it's like his character now.
Yeah, I feel like that's kind of what he's going for.
You know, laid back, chill.
But I love the reaction for him.
It was just like, whoa, it's freaking Dylan Danes.
The pop for Cheetah was crazy.
Yeah, that was awesome.
The whole crowd absolutely lost it.
Yeah.
They went wild.
And Giuliana Pena, being Giuliana Pena.
Shut on, absolute gem, Juliana Pena.
Brought hoodies?
Got myself a Venezuelan vixen hoodie.
Nice.
I have to say, I mean, we're going to be a biased watch party
when she fights for the title.
I can tell you that much, because we'll be supporting.
We will be supporting.
So she's really on the ball when it comes to the parley pals picks, right?
Oh, she's a ball man.
Oh, that's parley boys.
Sends it to me on Tuesdays.
She's ready to go, dude.
She's ready to go.
Love that. Love the organization.
Frank, how would you rate the officiating so far tonight?
You know, I think they've done a stellar job.
A stellar job, all right.
A lot of Mark Otter tonight.
He'll be doing the main event as well.
Yes.
He'll be in the selection.
Any of Dean.
Yeah, did we get any Dean tonight?
Dean, I know Herb did the first fight of the night.
Maybe a little Dean Thomas, too?
Yeah, maybe Herb probably gets the Aspenol fight.
You know, you got to get the body in there.
Yeah, yeah.
I just want them to come out for coffee with me tomorrow.
That'd be amazing.
That would be amazing.
Where are we going for coffee, friend?
Wow.
That plays across the street.
Oh.
Okay.
All right.
I'll send you the invite.
All right, dude.
I will be there.
I don't know.
I don't know where he's talking about.
787?
All right, Frank.
What's the prediction?
Main event.
Co-Main event.
We're about to start the main card.
What do we think?
For the main event, it goes the distance.
That's as far as I want to say on that.
And then for Co-Main, Tommy's going to finish this.
What round?
At least over one.
So, probably the second round.
Okay.
Submission, K-O.
I'm hoping for submission.
Oh, really?
That's your personal fancies by submission.
Yeah, I want him to do a takedown, do some rassling,
and stand up and get his arm raised.
Right.
It's going to be a while.
I love it.
Oh, my God.
Can we actually just talk about it for a second?
I mean, just looking that we're about to get this.
Alex Perheri, Yuri Prohashka,
Tom Aspen on Sergey Bapich.
Does it, like, have I been more excited for two back-to-back fights?
This year, I don't think I have.
Yeah, I can't really think.
I can't think of the last time.
Oh, Ole Miss Georgia, as we move over to the main card.
Anybody got a score update on that?
I mean, you guys are making me work when my boys are on?
Like, this is dirty stuff.
45-14.
I mean, it's just easy work.
Number 19 in the country coming down to Athens.
No big deal.
No big deal.
All right.
What was 2991's co-main event?
Do you remember?
Was it Derek Lewis?
Is it Pereira?
Perich.
Perich?
No, Pahowovitch.
Yeah.
Not even close to how excited I am for these.
Yeah.
No.
I don't know if I don't know if I want to fight more than I want Yeri Alex Pereira.
I know.
Even with John Jones and Sneepey on the car, we do.
I think I want this more.
Yeah, we all ranked like our top three fights you're looking forward to.
No one picks Steve A, John, but everyone universally picked this is the number one fight.
Graphics sitting.
Absolutely fantastic by the UFC.
Just have to applaud them.
I mean, the 3D and gold, black, MSG.
You got the world trade.
I see Empire State.
I see Chrysler.
I mean, I don't want to say...
They're not really to scale.
I don't want to say they took a little inspo.
I don't know.
Like, I don't want to say they took a little inspo here.
But it feels like, you know, great minds think alike.
I mean, it happens.
Great minds think alike.
John Anik.
Wish we were at the garden?
Ah.
I wish we were right here with the people.
pentose down.
Yes, exactly.
Or if we did like you guys did last night.
Yeah.
Just have like a small group of people behind us.
Like that would be pretty cool.
Oh, yes.
Yeah, that would be fantastic.
Alas.
But alas, we are here watching it all.
We are here.
Should we do a little trivia before this Diego Lopez fight starts?
Diego Lopez-Patini is going to be insane.
I keep comparing it to like a cartoon, an 80s cartoon scrap where they're going to just go at it real fast and they're going to roll around.
You're just going to see a bunch of dust flying.
Yeah, I think that's a good way to script that one up.
I have a feeling that's how that one's going to be, too.
It's going to be insane.
Absolutely, that's.
Frank, you ready to play some trivia?
I was born for it.
All right, Frank, you get the first question.
Yuri Pahashka's title-winning victory over Glover Tashara was at 24 minutes, 32 seconds.
It's the second latest finish in a UFC title fight ever.
Who holds the record for the latest finish at 24 minutes and 59?
seconds. Is it A. Demetrius Johnson, B, Tito Ortiz, or C, Max Holloway?
That is Tito.
G.C. Agree, disagree.
I'm gonna agree.
Correct answer is Demetrius Johnson.
Wow.
Against Kioji Hore Gucci, UFC, U.S. 186.
One second left in the title fight. Got the finish.
Wow.
G.C. will begin with you.
Who has more post-fight bonuses in the strawweight division?
Jessica Androge or McKenzie Dern?
I feel like it has to be Androj, unless she's gotten more flyweight.
Yeah, you've been wrong before.
I'm going to go on, Dern. Dern.
Circle gets the squared. G.C.
Androge has eight.
Eight.
But to look next time, that, Frankie.
Dern is five?
Dern his five.
But now, Frankie, you get the opportunity here.
True or false?
this is the first event in UFC history
to feature a vacant and interim title fight on the same card.
Wow, this is a great question.
That's false.
G.C.
I like everything in my body wants to say that that is true,
but I'm actually going to agree with Frank.
I'm going to say that that is false.
It has happened before.
You know what they say?
Always go when everything in your body tells you something,
you go with that, and you should have.
It's true.
It's the first time that has ever happened.
It makes sense.
It makes sense.
I mean, it is very random that we're working with an interim and a vacant belt tonight.
Yes, very, very random.
So I think G.C. has the only point thus far, right?
Yeah, did we even count them?
I mean, we should.
Okay.
Well, let's go back to it.
G.C., to show you how good this lightweight division is,
Benoit Santadie enters this fight tied for the second longest winning streak in the division at four,
which is eight behind the frontrunner, Islam Makachev,
who has 12.
Who is Benoit Sontini tied with
for the longest winning streak
in the division right now?
No multiple choice here.
We're just pulling it.
Yes.
It is, Frank, you got any guesses?
It is not Penaille Darius.
It is not Charles Olavera.
Armin Sehroukian.
It is not Armin Seruquian.
It's a lavera.
It's not Olavera.
Oops.
Keep going until I find it.
It's not Gamron. It's...
Oh, I got it, I got it, I got it.
You didn't even know.
I had it, and I just forgot to actually type it in.
I actually give up. I have all my guess.
Frank, you have another guess?
Bobby Green, nope.
Bobby Green? No.
The correct answer, gentlemen, is the man
who we're going to be watching next month
fight Tony Ferguson.
It is Patty.
Great. Great.
Those are some good questions.
I have to say. Those were good.
questions.
Frank, we go to you.
Is the number of fighters entering this event
coming off of wins
higher than the number of fighters
coming in off of losses?
It is higher.
The higher is coming off the wins.
Do you see?
All right, so you already got four
with the main and culminate.
Then you got on,
then he got Dern at five,
low post six,
177,
from only eight.
Geez, one is just take a time.
I'm going more.
It is, yes.
21 fighters coming in off of wins,
four with losses, one with the no context.
Would it have been more impressive
if I'd named all 21 coming off a one?
I think you probably could have.
I mean, I was halfway there.
Frank, this is a big one for you,
so I'm going to go to you first.
True or false,
Sergei Pavlovich's
current six-fight streak of first-round knockouts
is the longest in UFC history.
That is true.
It ends tonight.
I'm going to say true
It is true
But Frank I'm going to give you the point
It's a scary guy
That's a scary guy
Let me just find the
I have a bonus question ready to go
This guy stumped himself
I have a bonus question ready to go
I don't know what like I typed all this in at the airport
And then for some reason it didn't save
Classic I'm looking for
Because you couldn't find your sunglasses
Yeah
Wow we have we have sunglasses gate going on
Do we care to break the fourth wall
Yeah, Frank broke by $11.
What is this Wii, Frank?
What's the we here?
It was a joint effort.
Someone put them on the ground?
Joint effort, Frank.
You were stumbling and bumbling around like an elephant in a China shop over there.
And then you smashed Mike's glasses to smithereens.
I mean, it would have been better if he smashed it to smithereens.
Can we see the aforementioned glasses?
Do we still have them?
I have them.
They're sitting on the table.
They're just completely done.
I'll go grab them.
And then what did you do?
say when you looked at him? You looked them dead in the eye and said what, Frank? What do I owe you?
He said, go F yourself. I broke your sunglasses. It's like, wire your glasses on the ground.
Look at that. It's tough to see, but I mean... Put them on the card cam.
Oh, yeah, great. This is great. Let's see. This is the damage. Exhibit air.
Actually, we might... Card cam might be down.
Oh, this is why we called for it so we could tell that there was a problem.
You want to work through it. Who do we got, Mandello live looking?
It's Dustin Pori. It's Dustin Pori.
All right. I got the bonus question.
So this will be Price's Right rules, closest to the number without going over.
Were you in a Dave and Busters? How sick would that be?
I think he was there last night.
A little D&B with D.
Is it a camera on?
No.
There's Yuana.
There's Trump again.
It's the button on the left.
Button on the left.
Just tap the button on the left.
A huge ovation.
There it is.
And there we go.
Yeah.
Anything?
Oh, there we go.
There is.
Oh, look at that.
There it is.
There it is.
I think they were broken before.
I mean, look at this. It's getting worse, Frank.
One time, I was parking my car.
This is...
This is ridiculous, Frank.
I mean, you're making it worse.
These are legit...
I mean, can you make it any worse?
Like, they're already cooked, bro.
And these are official Oakley's, too.
I know.
That was the part.
I bought those literally at the gas station.
I understand that sunglasses hood is a gas station to you.
Oakley Piranhas, which are estimated at...
$8,200 a pair.
Yeah.
Frank has crushed.
Has zirconium inside of them.
Wow.
Wow.
I'm really sorry, Mike.
It's okay.
Did you see how easy they broke?
They broke like you...
Yeah, because you had them on the ground.
Yeah.
If you stepped within five feet of them,
you probably would have broke them.
They're like nine bucks.
It's all good, Frank.
We're good.
We're good.
I don't know if they're good.
I'm not going to lot.
9,000?
Jesus.
This feels like this, I don't know.
It feels like you guys are being cordial on air.
and we're going to have beef in the bathroom.
I was in the bathroom watching my hands,
and he just stared me down.
I would never do that.
I'm a nice gentleman.
I'm a nice gentleman.
I'm even going to let you, Frank,
take a shot at this bonus question.
Well, yes, bonus cue to decide the winner of trivia.
Let's go.
You're not going to get it right.
If you do, then I'll be incredibly impressed.
But let's do this.
By the time this card ends, Frank,
here on the East Coast,
it will officially be the 30th anniversary of UFC 1.
Obviously it took place November 12th.
1993. Close to the number
gets it. While this is UFC
295, Frank, this is certainly
not the 295th event
in UFC history.
What is that actual number, Frank?
It's 298.
298.
569.
G.C. gets the nod.
It's actually 670th.
Oh, you meant overall.
Yeah.
I thought you were meaning within the last
27 years.
Sometimes these guesses
I mean we get
You know
Shavkat Rokmanoff
When we're guessing Bantam Wades
We get 298 when we're guessing
Total UFC events
Frank
Frank thought there was only three
Additional UFC events
Beyond the pay-per-views
In the 30-year history
Of the promotion
That was crazy
That's why we love them
That's why we love them
All right
It's time
First fight
Frank you've been putting
In the heat in here man
It's kind of warm
You need more tape
It's toasty
Pull one more piece of tape
Frank
I fucking swear man
My whole back is just every time I move
I can just feel it just ripping off my skin.
All right, so we're both on Diego Lopez here, right?
Yes, Pat Sabatini
walking his way to the octagon.
This is, I kind of feel like the matchmakers are doing something
maybe a little tricky here.
I feel like they see Diego getting over a little bit,
give him a perceived tough fight,
but actually stylistically is not a,
I actually think it's kind of a good fight.
No, I'm not.
I feel like Lopez matches up really good with him.
Okay.
And a win over Pat is going to age very well.
I did it for the vibes.
Yeah.
I'm riding the Diego Lopez vibes.
I get it.
The DLVs, I mean, we watched him.
I had Mofsara as a parlay piece against them a couple months ago,
and it was Sweat City, and then obviously he took care of Gavin Tucker very easily.
So, uh, riding the vibe.
I'm glad that you're riding as well.
I have two bets on this fight.
I have Lopez plus 100, just straight.
And I have Lopez plus three and a half points.
It's like a little bit of a hedge,
but I kind of feel like Lopez is going to win.
Let's see what happened.
We'll double up here.
I got that at minus 165.
I really can't believe the fan base that this guy has created.
Yeah, there he is.
Diego Lopez.
Look at that hair.
Look at better than ever.
He's got the little fade on the sides.
That's new.
Oh.
The mullets.
What are we at?
Half and a half Mexican Brazil.
I love it.
There's just a vibe to Diego.
Something about him.
Something about him.
It just resonates.
Now,
MMA fighting, we have our, of course,
our awards are not as in-depth
as the M.MA Our Awards,
which is going to be a great show
to kick off 2024.
But one of the categories we have
on the M.A. Fighting
Year-end awards
is the rookie of the year,
which is a fighter who made their debut
this year
in a major promotion.
And I kind of feel like
if Diego Lopez wins this fight,
I don't know if he wins it.
Elvis Brenner is making a pretty damn good case for himself.
That would be a great fight.
Like two just absolute dogs in there?
Yeah.
I don't mind that at all.
But Lopez, man.
And he's opening up the main card
at Madison Square Garden right now
and I feel like he's the A side in this one.
Lopez got a finish.
His one loss is to Mavzar Vloyv
on like super short notice.
And if he goes in here,
beats Pat Sabatini.
I feel like you just, what John Anick was doing to us earlier with the names on how wrong we were.
I feel like that's what you just hit me with with the Mofsar.
I said Moussar-Ev-Loev.
What did you say?
Vloyev.
Mose-Sar.
I almost feel like you pronounced Mov-Sar different as well.
Evloyv.
That was nice.
I mean, I'm just botching every night.
I don't know.
Just give me a nice Pat Sabatini, just a nice little softball here.
Now, Connor Burke's, Mike Hack.
Oh, it's actually pot subtini?
I never knew.
Oh, man.
It's a Philly accent.
Here comes Diego.
Crowd going crazy.
Man, they have packed it.
They packed it here.
I mean, if you're paying, how much you're paying for the seats over there in MSG?
I hope you got there early.
I hope you're getting your money's worth.
If you're not in by now, I mean, you're just wasting, wasting time, wasting money.
Will this end up being an official sellout?
Oh, yeah.
I heard that they still had tickets available at the box office.
Made a bunch.
Is Pat from...
Philly you said?
Yes.
Do you think they have
like a martini named after him
like the Sabatini?
It feels like that would be an easy thing.
I should do that.
I actually had a pretty bad experience
with Pat Sabatini one time.
Was very high on
Henzo Gracie Philly.
Yeah.
Damon Jackson fight.
So what I did was I went and got a cheese steak
at like a very highly rated
cheese steak place here in New York City.
Got caught in a bad, bad traffic jam.
I ended up being about an hour
45 round trip. I mean, it was brutal. It was brutal. It was some bad stuff. By the time I got home,
the cheese steak was getting cold. Pat Sabatini's getting ready to fight. So here I am sitting in
my living room by myself, getting ready to hunker down on a cold cheese steak. I get like two
bites in. Pat Sabatini gets absolutely starched in the first round. How was the sandwich, though?
Yeah, it was pretty sad, man. It was a sandwich is okay. Would have been better if I had eaten it
like an hour before when I was at the restaurant.
And it would have been a lot of...
It didn't get, you know, knocked out.
So, yeah, it was an unfortunate day for me.
How many bites into it did you get?
Like two.
Like, legitimate...
I was like, all right, it's okay.
I made it in time for the pat fight.
I got my cheese steak.
We're going to eat this,
and we're going to will them to victory.
And that's not what happened.
Yes.
There are some circumstances going on as well that...
Oh, yeah.
...Demon Jackson, that, you know, had you have known...
Right, right, right.
But, you know, that doesn't always work out, but I wish I had known, yes.
We got a tail of the tape?
Yes, tail of the tape for this very fun featherweight matchup.
Diego Lopez, over like Rover.
I have to say, I wish we had the Andrage and the Frivolos.
There you go.
Lippeterson's going to get these guys going.
Eagle Lopez, 28 pro fights, a little more experience, five years younger, three inches taller,
two and a half inch reach advantage over at Philadelphia's own.
Pat Sabatini.
It's about to happen.
Here we go.
Was this our latest tale of the tape ever?
Might have been.
I mean, we played it perfectly, though.
We are underway.
We kind of hit the post.
We kind of hit the post.
The main card.
Just a few fights to go.
Yes.
The big co-man and main event.
Oh, my gosh, dude.
And these are nice appetizers.
What a great start.
These are nice appetizers.
And Matt Romeroa coming up next.
Perhaps a chat bet for that fight?
I think we kind of have to do with Maddie.
Mattie.
I really think it's going to be standing the same.
center of the out. It's got to let it rip.
Right in the middle here.
Oh, he's sad.
Big shot from Sabatini.
Ooh, he's kicking.
Holds it up with a kick, too.
Wow.
Little leg kick.
All right, I like what I'm seeing here from Pat.
Switching stances, very loose.
Yeah, switching stances.
He's easy there.
Sabatini moving nice.
He's a weight class of bug Pat Savageini.
Yeah, he's a big guy.
Look at Pat Sabatini, throwing flying knees.
That's a, oh, kick right back to the body.
just switching stances every time he takes a step.
Are you in a USA shit there?
No, maybe I'm wrong.
Very methodical.
I thought we were getting some love for Sabatini in the house.
Maybe it was just a Trump, something for Trump.
Yeah, maybe.
Probably for Keith.
Ooh, a little uppercut.
Pat, try to time it.
Whoa.
Oh, a little hockey fight action.
Lopez in the right hand.
This is what I was looking for.
We're scrapped.
Oh, nice.
Ompicum, big, bro.
Lopez!
He's on a bat!
He's dead.
He's down.
He's out.
He is out.
Diego Lopez in the first round.
Hit the darned.
Whoa.
I can't get the damn hang up.
With the Diego Lopez wig.
You support D.L. in the house.
Let's go.
Wow, that is terrible.
You look fantastic.
You look fantastic.
I'm going to turn it to the house.
side. Oh my God. Oh, yeah, there we go. Oh, my God.
I can't even describe what this looks like.
Look at him. Hiked up.
I got to get the Mully.
On the damn cage. Let's go Diego Lopez.
Wow. What a quick little scrap.
There it was. You can tell Pat was her bad there.
Yeah, he was up. And he was like, dude, if they can show that angle, like he is out.
He is out on the ground, bro. Like, dude, that ground.
A ground of pound was nasty.
That ground and pound was nasty.
Right, that was an impressive stoppage right there.
That's some good roughing.
When you order a sabatini, it's not shaken or stirred.
It's knocked down.
Wow.
He'll be here all week, folks.
He's got a comedy show after our show tonight.
My God, that was nice, Frankie.
Oh, man.
All right.
I mean...
What a way to start.
I mean, what a way to start, dude.
You hit Lopez plus 100.
We hit Lopez plus three and a half.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Diego freaking Lopez.
Wow.
It's going to be fun to matchmake him next.
I don't know if we just...
It's going to be very fun on to the next one tomorrow.
Dude's real good.
This is good matchmaking.
God, great matchmaking.
I mean, you called it.
That was...
That was something.
Yeah.
That was something.
I mean, the Twitter streets,
the Twitter street's got to be going crazy for Diego right now.
Big win for him.
Big moment for him.
As a fighter, as a coach.
What a year it has been.
Lupi Godine is going to win.
Alexa Grasso's the freaking flyweight champion of the world.
It's been a good year for Diego Lopez.
Wow.
I'm sweating in here.
I love it.
All right. Yeah.
We're going to lose some weight tonight.
I like it.
Frank, you got the heat up.
We're moving, man.
You thought this was going to hurt us.
What's the taty say?
Let's see.
Dream, believe.
What's the rest of it say?
Can't make it happen.
Dream, believe, and make it happen.
Very good.
It's like a...
It's like a limerick.
It's a good positive message right there.
Yeah.
Something you should put like a $100 billion.
It's like a Mariah Carey hit from 1994.
Just make it happen.
Make it happen.
Diego Lopez.
Genda done 90 seconds.
K-O.
That was unbelievable.
What a performance, man.
That was unbelievable.
Dream believe achieved?
There's a five...
The great Fabiano right there.
Great Fabiano.
Looking good in the black tie.
Look at the sea, dude.
It looks like men in black out there.
Yeah.
It looks like he's about to wipe my memory.
It looks fantastic.
Tremendous.
What a moment.
Now we're getting freaking Matt Frivola
Binwasantini, ladies and gentlemen.
This is...
Wow.
Cannot wait for this fight.
I mean, I can't believe we're about the bounce of that
from what we just watched.
That was...
This could be a very...
Gosh, and we got a final from Athens, folks.
5217 for my dogs of...
the number nine ranked Ole Miss Rebels.
I mean, that was easy work.
Looking good out there, boys.
It was Ole Miss ranked.
Number nine in the country.
We're only 10-point favorite.
Smallest we've been on the year.
That's a nice job right there.
Got to beat Tennessee next week, like the east.
We're looking at the knock-up.
Wow.
I mean, he's out.
He's out right here.
He's landing those shots on his ear.
We could have stopped that earlier.
I mean, great refting there by old Keith P.,
but maybe could have stopped that thing earlier.
Yeah.
That was.
Nasty, bro.
Terrence McKinney, what a way to open up the main card.
Yep.
This is a very good way to start it.
Lopez Impressin, everybody.
Michael Kiesz is excited.
Fabiano just one of the best of the business here.
90 seconds.
This could be one of those nights.
We just get five finishes, and we're out of here in less than two hours.
Don't jinks it, but sign me up for that.
Don't jinks it, but sign me up for that.
Yeah.
Good performance.
Salute to you.
Mr. Lopez, that was a fantastic performance.
I can only imagine his star power is going to continue to rise after that one.
Yes, 2024.
He's going to be one of these guys to watch at 145 pounds.
We're putting the chat bet out.
Yeah, yeah, sure.
I mean, okay, Frank, I mean, you could have just asked.
Chat betting?
Yeah, we'll do a chat bet for Favola.
Yeah, look at the guy, Cheeto Veron in the building.
A couple spots out.
Dustin Borier.
DP and MSG, that's true.
shirt is
and there's
Justin Gachi
Look at Gachi in there
Gachi played some golf today
with D.C. and Chris Wydenman.
Wow, what cores?
Somewhere there's
some water all over it. It seemed very cold
and windy.
And they had caddies, so
probably somewhere really nice.
Oh, I mean, I'm sure.
They were really, really nice.
Put putt.
All right.
Chatbet.
Favola, Santini.
Who you can pick?
How is it, how are they going to
to do it. I ain't going against the
steamroller, but this is a tough matchup.
I'm taking the under. That's all I'm on.
What are you thinking? I'm thinking violence here. I'm thinking
someone's getting knocked out.
Yeah, this is
well, watch party at an Air Force base.
Happy Veterans Day. Happy Veterans Day.
Let's go. Shout out to all the vets.
We set up the camera for them to come here.
There's Forrest Griffin.
That's pretty cool. That's pretty cool.
Yeah. Shout out to all the vets watching right now.
Thank you for serving our country.
Shout out.
My brother, active marine.
Really?
Yeah.
My brother-in-law, active marine as well.
Shout out.
There we go.
There we go.
It's time, baby.
Lightweights.
Wow, look at Yuri.
Oh, my God.
In the samurai silk here, I mean, he's looking.
Wow.
He looks fantastic.
He looks ready to go.
He looks so comfortable, relaxed.
And look at Alex Pereira
AP with the drip over here
Is he going to fight in that?
Nice, simple, and just like the chains are.
Is that a smirk?
I can't even imagine how much those chains are worth.
Look at Plinyo in the back.
Looking good, dude.
Rara, looking like a guy
who's going to win a second belt tonight.
We got any eyes on Aspinall.
Love to see what shirt he's rocking.
He went out there for the press conference.
Wonder if he's got something good plan for tonight.
That's a great question.
Do you think he's going to rock a shirt like that?
I think you might be rocking maybe like a very comfy look.
I think a T-shirt.
In my opinion,
this is just me.
I'm biased,
but you're about to be in the co-main event at Madison Square Garden.
I'm going to be wearing something crazy.
Like,
I'm going to be wearing,
even if it's not like crazy pop,
it can be subtle,
but like what Alex Pereira was wearing right there was nice.
That was classy.
Just like the touch is in the chains.
Like there's no shot I'm walking in in like my hoodie fighter kit.
shot. Yeah. If I know they're going to catch me
in the walk-in, I'm treating it like
an NBA finals game. Like, I'm walking
in looking right. Okay.
What are you going with? Polo?
Nah, I probably
rocked almost kind of what Pereira is
looking like with the t-shirt, but the
suit jacket over it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't know if
I'm cool enough to rock a chain like that, but
I might be... But you'd be headline... We'd be
in different circumstances because we'd be headlining
MSG, so you'd probably be cool
enough. Like, headlining MSG
is, uh, it's a pretty cool
accomplishment. But Yeri just rocking the
samurai costume. I mean, he's looking great.
It might inspire me to have a more comfortable look, but
suitable look for the occasion as well. I mean, he's looking
great. What about like the Missy
Elliott, you know, inflated
body suit thing? Ah, that's
interesting. Let me think of it. I might
wear, uh, maybe I'll wear like a
Boston Red Sox suit
and get the booze from MSG and really get
him invested in the phone. Uh, Missy
Elliot, what was that, inflated suit?
Yeah.
From the I Can't Stand the Rain and all of her.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I think it's a statement.
That, yeah, yeah.
That's comfort.
It's kind of what they were doing.
This is something, yeah.
Riding in on the Little Escalade.
We're going to rip some packs today, huh?
Yes.
What do we think?
Two autos again.
Yeah.
Are we going to get a bone nickel auto?
Or are we going to get like a,
a
try not to be disrespectful here
but like it just always kind of feels like the
autographs are letdowns, you know?
Not letdowns, but like
you want the big names, right?
You want the big names.
All right? So we get two, right?
I'm gonna take some guesses. I'm gonna take a guess.
If you want to just
just as a little...
Rini Aldana.
Wow, whoa!
Shake it one more time.
Charles Jordane.
Wow!
That was actually a good guess because that's like typically the level we get.
Wait a second.
The chat bed is in.
Well, let's go.
Let's go.
Timois.
We've got Stin-Wa by knockouts.
By knockouts.
Sontini by Natchez.
I have to say, I don't want to rip on the chat.
I don't want to do that.
I'm not going to do that.
The chat's back in me here.
BSD by KOTKL, Post-165.
I just have to say, it does feel like of late.
We take the lowest odds one.
It feels like we buttered our bread with like some like really out there ones.
I have to say if I could have made a bet on what the chat bet was going to be,
I thought it was going to be for vol.
I just want to point out that Joe is riding with the chat.
Chat keep it up.
Joe's riding with the chat.
Yeah, I mean, it's just like it feels like this is like the fourth or fifth time
where it's like you go to the odds and like the favorite method is for Vol is St.
Deney by K.O. plus 165.
Yeah.
It's kind of hoping for a little steam roll of it.
I guess we don't, you know.
Jill was pointing out that not only if they win,
if they win, he's going to keep riding with them
for the rest of the card.
Yeah, I mean, that's an unspoken rule.
I mean, that's just what I'm going to do.
I mean, that's implied, Frank.
Yeah.
I'm riding with the chat.
I'm not going against them.
I didn't say I was going to do it.
I thought you said I'm not going to insult the chat here.
I'm not going to do that.
That's just that's not me personally.
I would never do that.
I'm just saying it feels like the last few picks have been, you know.
Oh, okay.
That's all I'm saying.
That's just like, I mean, listen.
Well, it sounds like you're not really into it.
Frank, I just placed the bet, man.
What are you up to?
What are you up to back there?
I'm not allowed to gamble anymore.
The bet has been placed.
It's a long story.
All right, boys.
This wins, this hits.
We obviously keep riding.
Yes.
Y'all know what it is.
What did we get for odds for this?
Plus 165.
Okay, that's the idea.
Bet has been placed.
There it is.
Chat bet.
All right.

Oh, you've got to hit submit.
Wow, Frank, you're that guy, huh?
You want me to share the bed slip with you?
No.
You want me to share the bet slip with you, man?
Frank just not...
I mean, I understand it's hot in there, but let's keep it cool.
No, we do.
No, big deal, man.
Wow.
I can show someone a bet slip.
There he is.
Nope.
BSD.
This guy...
Frenchman.
This guy's a friggin monster.
Should have gotten some croissant.
I just don't know if this guy can be finished by anybody.
If you've been around the game for the last couple years,
then you watched...
You have seen.
C-267 against Elizis,
Ales-Alesquido-Santos,
where that fight should have been called
90 times over, and BSD
was like, I'm good.
Up a weight class on like three days notice.
It just took a beating. Yeah, so here's the way
like I actually see this one. I think you cannot
doubt for Vola at this point.
Like he has been winning as an
underdog, and he's been winning by knockout.
The trumpets are playing
an MSG. He's in front of the home
crowd. That's smart play right here. He has proven
he's got knockout power.
you can't doubt him.
But there is a chance that this becomes
just like an all-out war.
And like, we've seen BSD
push to the absolute brink and not get finished.
We have seen Favola get finished.
It's such a wild fight.
I can't wait. I can't wait.
I love the corn rolls on for Vola.
He's got a big smile on his face.
I'm in a win-win now.
Because either the chat wins,
if this ends by knockout.
Either the chat wins or I'm like,
I steamroller wins.
I mean, it's a win-win.
It's a win-win here.
There's Ray Longo in the corner
getting the crowd all fired up.
Jamal Hill in the building.
Shout out.
Shout out, Big Jay Hill.
There he is.
Never misses an event.
Yes, sir.
I wonder his feelings tonight.
Seeing the belt, you know,
ushered into a new champion
and likely his next opponent.
He's picking Alex Pereira, by the way.
Well,
this is official pick.
Whoever his pick is.
Whoever wins is who he's going to be fighting next.
Potentially.
Look at Cheesy McFresh.
the back. Matt Fervola's brother looking
nice. Yeah.
Coming out of the red corner. A side too.
Yeah, solid team over there. Oh,
we got the vet too. Nice.
Frivolta veteran himself and BSD
a veteran for obviously the
French military, but I mean, a couple
of vets here. Love it.
Oh, man. I'm so
excited. Let's go to the tail of the tape. I can't wait.
I can't freaking wait. I kind of like this pacing
too. I mean, 1037,
we're already starting. We're almost put
in the air for an hour. It does not feel like that.
doesn't. There we go.
Bad boys right here. I mean, these guys
are ready to throw some slumber.
Sontini, two inches taller, two inch
reach advantage. Both have been making
away like professional. It's been lost on to be six years
younger. Right around the same
experience, Volo, two extra fights.
These guys are finishers.
These guys are absolute animals.
This is going to be fun.
Maffrevola. Stepping in
the cage. MSG.
Going bananas.
He stares.
Blaring.
Him and BSA
and luck dies.
What if like this whole new
frivola, like he's just like
this knockout guy
and then he just comes out
and goes for like 22 takedowns.
I know, dude.
I just still feel like...
Not a good strategy though.
I don't know if you remember this
but like when he was building
this three-fight win streak
on knockouts, it felt like before every fight
he was like, should I wrestle or should I bang?
And like he left people wondering
and every time he's obviously just gone for it.
I just still feel like eventually
we're going to get him to go back to the wrestling.
I feel like he's having too much fun throwing.
I know, man.
It feels like so long ago
where the Terrence McKinney fight happened.
Yes.
Marco Polo Reyes?
Seven seconds, dude.
Seven freaking seconds.
Yeah.
Terrence McKinty.
I guess since then,
just bouncing back in a big way.
Big way.
And how can you not want to just, like, throw down?
If you get three knockout wins in a row,
how can you not just want to throw down?
Oh, man.
Are they all in the first round, too?
A little less than 10 minutes of total time.
Matt Vervola and Sergei Pavlovich cut from the same cloth?
They might be.
Lightweight Sergei?
They might be.
Ben La Santonee is a little different guy.
He likes to make you pay.
He's violent.
He is violent.
No wins by decision.
Yeah, he's one of those guys that...
Oh my goodness gracious.
Revolta.
We'll get Frivolta.
We'll get Frivolta.
We're in.
This is some intense.
Get here, man.
I'm so...
get pumped. I also have Mr. Santanyi as a parley piece along with McKinsey Dern.
Wow, wow, wow, no love for Steam Rolla on this program.
All represent, all represent for Team Steam. Look at that with the mouthpiece, steam roller.
I'm just so high on Benoit Santini. I'm high on both these guys. I like pretty much every
Oh, Mike Beltron! That's your guy, Frankie.
Mike Beltron. Is that the first time he's- This is Frank's Super Bowl?
watch parties? I think so, maybe. This is Frank Super Bowl, man. He's been talking about it all day.
If you guys watch the television show Mayans MC on FX. He's in it? Mike Beltran.
Shout out. Here we go. Here we go. We got a touch of gloves and we are underway. People's main event.
Ben Wassontanii, throwing a kick right off the bat. This is just like, this is twitchy stuff right here.
They're standing on the monster can in the middle of the octagon. They have not left,
They have not left the inner octagon within the octagon yet.
They're right there.
Ooh, they're chucking them, as expected.
Santini just looks so big.
Oh, my gosh, Prvala going for it there.
Provolta, you can see.
Santany just kind of stalking away.
Some nice body kicks early on here for St. Denis.
He just looks so big.
Pervola kicking right back.
Oh, no, I think it was a slubal.
A little knee to knee.
Oh, she goes off the step.
Oh, that might have a bit.
up on top.
Sonsigny tried to shoot Gilly.
That is jump Gilly.
Yeah, that did not work out for him.
Jedmishu must be loving that.
Oh, wow.
Muscles them over.
Wow.
Look at this.
Damn.
Is he going to try to take the back?
Wow.
Favola doing a nice job here.
Fola, look at him.
This is.
Al, he's over a take.
Yeah.
Wow, picks them up.
Slams them down.
Look at the steam roller.
Whoa.
Wow.
There's your, uh,
yeah,
your answer to the wrestling question.
My prediction,
Bradless fight was gonna go?
Oh, is he going for a sub?
No way.
No, no, no.
He's trying to,
he almost jumped him.
Oh, nice thing.
He needs to get out of there.
Oh!
He kicked him in the face.
It's over.
Holy shit.
Oh.
Jesus.
Dude, that was insanity.
That was crazy.
Get the hell out of here, dude.
Wow.
Holy shit.
I mean, the chat bet hits.
Chat bet hits.
Just the most violent way.
Wow.
Whoa.
Whoa.
That was crazy.
This guy is a problem.
Holy shit.
Dude.
That was insane.
Wow.
I mean, who at 155 is going to fight this frigging guy right now?
Dude.
Here's a replay.
Look at this.
Look at this.
Look at this.
Look at this.
Kick.
Like, perfectly landed.
Oh.
Kicked him like right in the eye and he cut him immediately.
Oh.
Beltran.
Dude, and watching that live, that was so crazy.
They're both moving and he landed it perfectly.
Look at this.
Watch this in real time.
Oh, my God.
It's like a field goal kick.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, dude.
Vovol is just trying to create some space and it just gets
and knocked flat out.
Whoa.
He kicked him halfway across the cage.
That was crazy, dude.
Both these first two fights have been absolutely crazy.
Shout out to the chat.
Shout out to the chat.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
He's the dude.
I'm sorry.
Wow.
I mean, look.
Look at that.
Frivolta giving him the salute, man.
I don't even know.
I wonder if Frival like asked him what happened.
And he looked like he may have asked the ref.
Sheesh, man.
I want to live in a world.
And it may not happen now.
But I have a feeling maybe sometime next year we're going to live in this world, Connor
Berks.
Please explain.
Las Santini versus Raphael Fiziv.
I mean, come on.
Fuck, sign me up.
I'm there.
I'm there.
I'll be there no matter what.
Yeah.
As they say.
As they say.
I don't care where we are in the world.
You might just do.
a watch party for that one fight even if it's an apex made event we just might do one
god bless unless unless
emotionless right now
this is what he does
dude is
he's gonna be a very very very very
difficult test for i mean how could you ever want to fight that guy
all he like all he does is serious people sitting in the crowd seeing this guy
are you like
yeah doesn't pori want to take this fight this guy
Yeah, Porre wants to take this fight.
Yeah.
I mean, he ain't there yet, but.
Gosh.
That was.
Lost, Santini, just.
That was vicious, man.
He's getting a bonus for that one.
That's for sure.
Wow.
That, I mean, that was, I'm at a, I'm at a loss for words.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Woo!
And now it's time for Pivotal Straw.
Yeah, let's, I mean, let's go.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Let's rip some packs.
Let's also open up the chat,
but let's keep on and letting that thing ride.
What do you say, eh?
Joe, you down?
I think they might have left.
I think they went home.
Okay, that's it.
That's fine.
We'll keep going.
Oh, my good God.
Ben-Wasantanis is just a positive message,
happy man.
Longest active UFC finish streaks.
We had a trivia question.
Sergei Pavlovich.
Longest, all in the first round,
six-fight first round.
Santini, five finishes in a row, tied with Shafkat Rachmanah, five finishes in a row.
Shafkat has a chance to push that up to six next month when he fight Stephen Thompson.
Pavvich get a little more separation tonight.
That was crazy.
That was crazy.
I still can't get over it.
That was crazy, dude.
These first two fights have delivered in such a big way.
Santany just said, hey, I'm coming for that belt.
I'm coming.
Chat pets up.
Did we?
All right.
McKenzie Dern, Jessica Androge, who you got?
How you got it?
Was it last fight card that we took all fights to not go to a decision?
I feel like we should have done that here.
I took, I have a parley, all this fight and the rest, don't go to a decision.
Wow, that was.
I almost did all five.
I wasn't confident.
I feel like there's about to be some crazy, getty images of that.
Like, I feel like some of the photographers just got some crazy picks there.
So if McKenzie,
Dern wins. This is almost a guaranteed winning week for May. Oh, nice. I love it. BSD Dern
Parley will hit. The B.S.Rbechki Dern Parlay will hit. I got a long way to go.
We're in really good shape here. That was... Lopez was a double down on Lopez. BSD by KOTKL plus
165. It's been a good day. Let's go. I love it. I love it. I love it. That was,
that was something. All right, let's throw some packs. Let's throw some packs. So we got six
packs here. We're going to have two autographs.
Oh, look, he's calling out Justin Gaichi right now.
Gaci's like, I don't, I don't know, man.
Like, it feel like that's like a high risk, lower reward type fight at the current
juncture, yeah?
I mean, that's a fight I want to see.
Of course I want to see it.
It would be absolutely fireworks.
And, like, I know Gaichi is down to fight him, but, like, is he down to fight?
I feel like that doesn't get him.
He's trying to get a bad.
Hey, Hunter, it's Justin.
Hey, I don't want to fight for the belt anymore.
I'll fight this guy.
Give me Benoit.
I'll fight this dude who doesn't have a ranking right now.
All right.
I'm feeling good about these packs then.
I feel like we really got something good in store here.
Let's start.
Ryan Hall.
Sure.
Solid story.
Wow.
Look who it is.
Look who it is.
Mr. Sergei Pavlovich.
Straight into a Kabib Nirmaghmettov.
Woo!
I still can't get over that.
Oh, we got a little Red Chronicles,
Brandon Rawdog Roy Vow, the future.
Fighting for the belts.
The future?
We get a little green screen there?
Something's going on with that camera.
Sketchy.
Oh, yeah, it just turned off.
It sure did.
It sure did.
Am I just going to have to get up close and personal?
Yeah, it's back on.
Oh, yeah, all right.
Whoa, Nellie.
Just knocking over.
We're almost sending shit there.
Wait a minute.
Let's spice this up.
We'll spice this up.
The chat has spoken.
Let's go.
Chat has spoken.
Tell me, Frankie, what do we do?
Joe, you riding too?
McKenzie Dern by submission.
That's the bet.
McKenzie Dern by submission?
That's the bet.
It's good.
Chat has spoken, therefore I shall take it.
Let's go.
Jess Gondrage, Mackenzie Dern,
winning method.
McKenzie Dern by submission.
There you go.
I mean, how far do we let this ride, Chad?
Are we just going to win the whole thing tonight?
I love it. It's a great ad.
Kenzie Dern to win by submission plus 120.
You know, Chad going with the favorite winning nothing again.
How long can we go with that?
All right, we let it ride.
We let it ride.
Can we have an undefeated run from the chat?
Have we had one of those yet?
I think we had one where they went three and up.
That was, it might have been 287.
God, yeah, it's been a while.
All right, there it is.
Once again.
Which really this 290th fight.
Yeah.
Once again, the bet has been placed McKenzie Dern to win by submission.
I feel like if she just gets one takedown, she's live for it.
This is the first promotional material I've seen from the UFC in regards to this fight.
Yeah, there it is.
Kobe Covington.
Kobe Covington in the house with old D-T?
Yeah, it could be here.
All right, let's continue, though.
Brandon Rod Dog, Roy Val.
Look at that.
Can I wait for that fight.
NYU.
I can't.
We'll be here next month for it.
We'll be here next month for it.
Rod Dog Roy Val.
Shout at the R.D.
a little Benny Darius. Yep.
Getting ready to fight, Armand Sarukian.
Main event.
Look is that. Boss Rout.
Nice. Shout out.
That's a great one. Living. Living legend.
Guy is still living.
Therefore, he is a legend.
A little clay guita.
A little clay guita and a little patty pemblet.
Can you put that clay one more in frame?
Wow. The paddy pimblit.
Or the patty one at this matter?
What did you say?
Can you bring it down a little bit?
Oh, yeah, sure.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
The Patty Pimlet, if you guys can see, is out of 25.
Oh, that's a good one.
That's not bad.
That's not bad.
Can we go back to the clay?
Oh, you're big on.
The chat wants to see the clay.
I mean, just look at that.
Look at that clay weed.
It's kind of a funny card.
Wait, what's funny about it?
I mean, look how small he is on the left.
Oh, and transparent on the right.
I'm just like, how that passed QC.
I don't.
They were obviously done for the week.
They're like, yeah, just printed.
Pretty hyped on this Patty card.
to say. That's a good one. Who will we be riding with next month? Tony Ferguson
training with David Gaggins. Don't know if you've seen the videos, but it looks pretty intense.
How much does that help? It's actually like, I was got a kick out of one that he posted today,
if you haven't seen it, where it's David Gaggans doing walking lunges, and he's just like breezing
through them, having a conversation with the camera. And Tony is like four steps behind him,
like, knee slamming on the ground. He's like, you can tell he's like struggling. He's working
through it, but...
He said they did two miles of walking luncheon.
I mean...
I hate lunges.
I mean, I would be getting my ass beat
if I hung out with David Gagins.
That's a fact.
So shout out to Tony Ferguson.
Another B'Neil Dereux.
They love packing us up with B'Neil Daryushes.
Oh, Drew Dober, my guy.
My guy. So far, Carter the Night,
got to be the Patty Pemblit.
I think that's a no-brainer.
I think that's the winner so far.
Drew Dobsky?
And a little Jim Miller, legend.
U.S.C. 300 coming up.
Book him.
Book him.
I saw a blue. I saw a little, I saw a little blueberry shimmer.
Uh-oh.
We're getting a preview of a little blueberry shimmer.
Oh, there's green shimmer.
Holly Holm.
Lost the camera, I think.
Green City.
Wow.
You turn it off and on.
Yeah, I mean, what's going on here?
Like, are we out of battery?
Do I need to plug it into a charge?
I think it's so hot in there that the cables are dying.
You're actually, you have to be lying, right?
Holly home.
Yes.
Holly home.
It is hot in here, though.
Lorone Murphy, my guy.
My guy.
Here we go.
A little blueberry, blueberry shimmer.
Carla is.
The new mom.
The new mom.
A former UFC champion.
One of the greatest UFC title fights of the old time.
Two times.
Of 99.
Of 99.
Blueberry shimmer, Carla Esparza.
Dustin Jacoby light heavyweight.
Oh, and we got a URI.
Right.
That's sick.
Prohastub.
And Dustin Jacoby.
I like the little bit of holographicness on the Dustin Jacoby.
And then the rest is flat.
Dude, this 2996 main card is fire.
Leon Edwards, Colby Covington, Alejandro
Bantosia, taken on Brandon Roy Val,
Shavgard, Rodmanoff, Stephen Warner, and White Thompson,
Tony Ferguson, Patty Thinley, Bessente, Luke, A, and Gary.
That is, like, top to bottom, stacked out.
Yes.
That is every single one of those fights, I will be on the edge of my seat.
Oh, boy.
It's going to be a good one.
Look at New York City.
Chrysler building.
Look at that.
MetLife building.
I'll be there tomorrow.
I was there today
and I'll be there on Monday.
It's where I live.
Oh, okay.
It's,
if we're getting ready
for McKenzie Dern
versus just gone drudge.
I don't know how I'm going to start acting
once this one's over.
Because, I mean,
it's going to get serious in here
for this co-man
and main event.
It's going to get
dead serious in here.
Frank,
we got the Tommy Aspinon
Chan on standby.
Let's hear it.
Tommy Aspeno.
Oh, man.
I cannot wait for that fight.
All right, McKenzie Dern, Jessica Androdd.
So, question we got...
I think she prefers to go by Mackey D.
Mackey D. Okay.
Question we got on the People's Pre-Fight Show earlier.
She told you that?
DM, Frank?
That's right.
I mean, Frank, Frank has...
Frank knows all these fighters.
They hit him up and they test out nicknames for him, and he approves her just...
I approve her...
Thumbs up.
And Bruce Walker calls her Mackey D tonight, then...
If Bruce Buffer calls her Mackey D, I'm leaving the show.
And I'll buy you a new pair of sunglasses if he calls her Matt.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
I'm actually leaving the show, Frank.
You have to fill in and do the rest.
Can you make the case that, because someone asks, like, which fighter on the main card has the most to lose?
Can you make a case that it's one of these two women?
That's either of these two women for this whole main guy.
I've said it multiple times this week, the fact that we sat here in January and
watch Jessica Andrage put on an absolute masterclass, just top to bottom beat down of
Lauren Murphy 10 months ago, less than 10 months ago.
And now we sit here today and she's trying to stave off a fourth straight loss,
potentially a fourth straight loss by finish.
I mean, this sport just moves so fast.
It moves so fast.
The swings are just unbelievable.
I kind of feel like McKenzie Dern needs this one more.
I understand the losing streak and all that,
but I kind of feel like the UFC views Jessica Androge.
Are you speaking in terms of like...
Like if McKenzie Dern's going to get to the title?
Yes, okay, okay.
She's got to win this fight.
I feel like Androge's title days are behind her.
Oh, 100%.
Yeah.
But I don't feel like her job's ever in jeopardy.
I feel like she's kind of...
Not Tony Ferguson-ish, but almost in that same respect,
like this is like her 26th or 27th UFC fight.
She's won in three different divisions,
a bunch of bonus is former champion.
And she says yes.
Like she doesn't say no to these crazy difficult fights.
There's so much value for that,
especially in a division where you need contenders.
You could at least worst case at error
use Androge to build contenders.
Yeah.
Build name.
So I feel like her job's never in jeopardy.
I think she kind of understands titles
or out of her life at this point,
but she does not make a good living.
McKenzie Dern, I feel like this is it, man.
Like this is it.
You got to, she goes and wins this fight.
I feel like they're going to do
Zhang Wili Yan Jonan,
even though they're not going to do it in China.
I do feel like they're going to go that way.
And I think McKenzie wins this fight.
Main event, you can do it at the apex.
McKenzie Dern Tatiana Suarez,
number one contender fight, five-rounder.
Whoa.
Now you're talking.
I mean, now you're talking.
Yeah, in my opinion,
like you cannot give it to McKenzie Dern
over Janjohn-on.
She obviously has the victory over.
But, man, there's a big case to me.
made for the matchup you just made.
I mean, that would be fireworks.
Five rounds in the apex.
Any chance that they just booked Tatiana Suarez
into a title fight now?
They could. Like, if Yon's heard or something?
She kind of has that mystique about her.
She's kind of got that potential star power.
I want to see one more, though.
Okay. All right.
I mean, I would love McKinney.
I mean, I think if you throw her in there
with McKenzie, it's a win-win for the UFC.
Their Taurus finally gets her shot or
the project almost in a way
the UFC's been trying to build with Dern
to get her.
there pays off. So I don't think they can...
I'd like to see her get a finish here. Not because of the chat bet or because of my
own bets, but because it feels like all we ever do is talk... I mean, obviously, she's so
credentialed and so talented at BJJ, but I'd like to see her finish. It feels like we've been
getting a lot of decisions lately. Yeah. I mean, she's tough as nails. Jess Conradge is chaotic
as hell. I mean, this one's going to be fun, too. I mean, the first two fights, if this is half
as good as the first two fights,
I mean, we're going to be okay.
Yeah, this is going to end in like 84 seconds.
Oh, my God.
I can't believe we still have Tom Aspenal,
Sergey Pavlovich, and Alex Prairie, Pro Oshka.
I mean, if we can get...
Both those face-offs in the center of the octagon,
I'm going to be on pins and needles.
Yes.
If we can get...
You just go black?
I mean, we're just, like, all over the place there.
Mackenzie's like, where the hell do I go?
If McKenzie Dern can fight,
if she still has that sort of anger
and that absolute aggression
and willingness to influence,
damage like she had against Angela Hill, this fight could get real friggin' wild.
I have no idea how it could have gone away. I just don't know how it could have gone away. That
fight was, what, three months ago? Yeah. What's it? Wow. It was fairly recent, man.
Yeah, I know it was. And like, she put a beat down on Angela Hill. Like an impressive one. I can't
believe that fight didn't get finished. She's so tough to Angel. If you want, if you want,
You want to get chaotic.
You want to get crazy.
This is the perfect dance partner for it.
And one Jeskandraj.
Because she is the queen of chaos, man.
Yeah, she just don't care, man.
No.
She's my, like, Charles Oliverer in the female division.
Because she's just chaotic, man.
I got to bet under when Jessica Androge fights.
Shout out to Jessica Androge.
She's the reason people still kind of poking prod of me
because if you remember that watch party,
I was like, you know what?
there's value on Lauren Murphy.
I think I do remember that because that was...
I have not lived that down since.
You said that and then a month later,
I bet Jessica Androge is like a minus 180 favorite
against Aaron Blanchfield and she got dominated.
Yep.
So, uh...
Aaron Blanchfield might be the best 125 pounder in the world.
So they say.
So they say.
So they say.
Let's go to the tail of the tape bear.
Juste Androge walking into the hallowed octagon
at Madison Square Garden
to fight McKenzie Dern
here's where we're at
touch gloves
look at the experience difference here
just gun drugs
you have 37 pro fight
Kenz Dern 13 and 3
Dern 2 years younger 3 inches taller
1 inch reach advantage
it's time
big one
big one big one
let's go fight from McKenzie Dirk
I'm high
got a couple
chaotic straw weights going at it
sign me up
Turn to win by submission.
Shout out to the chat.
Let's keep it rolling.
Man, Androge by Kio at plus 500.
I absolutely love the camera angles
that it's just right on their forehead
and their faces, like kind of get stretched out.
I mean, it's great stuff.
Oh, my God.
Look at the look on Androge's face.
I mean, she's incredibly competitive.
She's a former champion.
She's also very talented.
There's no way you're just like,
yeah, I'm cool with losing like this.
Like, you've got to be like,
it's time to bounce back.
I mean, he's about to get pretty crazy in here.
Fifth fight of the year.
First woman fighter to ever have five fights in one year.
There's a very real world where she gets finished in the last four of them.
Yep.
All tough fights.
Buffer looking great, that like deep royal blue on the bow tie and on the tux trim.
I mean, look, does he ever look bad?
Even when the suit's not 10 out of 10, he still looks good.
Yeah.
He's just rocking in his own way.
Like, I don't know if you, like, Rick, the suit's Rick Flair wears.
Like, those are just terrible.
Like, I'm sure they're super expensive, but they're horrendous looking.
No, I think.
The Buffman just makes this work.
It's an incredible suit, I have to say, tonight.
There's been a couple misses across the years.
I mean, you're doing 14 of these a year for the last 30 years,
however long he's been at this.
Like, you're going to have a miss or two,
but tonight is not a miss.
Tonight it looks fantastic.
You're in MSG, you're going.
You're going nice classic.
You're going to something that you can lean back on.
You're not going to go for shooting for the moon there.
You're going to go with a nice safe pick.
You can tell a buff.
Like that looks like a suit jacket,
but kind of probably feels like a smoker's jacket on them.
It's got that kind of cloth look to it.
Yeah, it's probably worth more than my apartment.
It's be real.
That jacket is probably worth more than my apartment.
Bruce knows how to make that money.
Here we go.
Straw weights.
He's P.
Frank, how are you feeling about P?
Feel great.
I want better than K.P.
To having the Octagon.
Yes.
Here we go.
McKenzie's got a smirk on her face.
I mean, she just looks like she's ready to go.
Jess Goddren does not have any smirk on her face.
She does not look happy.
Bill Burr right behind her.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Dern comes out through a quick jab.
There's a kick.
Another kick from Dern.
Another jab.
Another jab.
Another one.
All right.
So every shot thus far has been thrown by Dern.
Androge shot for a single shot yet.
She's waiting for a big one, I think.
Dern of that jab. I like it.
Oh, Androge starting to move.
Great footwork from Keith.
Yeah, shout out. Good shit, Frank.
Combination.
Oh!
Dern takes her down.
Oh. No, not a guilly.
Yeah, I was going about to say.
Andrade shoves her away.
He does not feel smart here.
You could see, like, literally how Androge was like, oh, boy, I got to get it.
Yeah, that is not where she wanted to be.
Nope.
Especially what we saw last time out against Tatiana Suarez.
About a minute in.
Andrade's being a little more cautious here.
I don't blame her.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, Andrage coming in?
All right.
Got a kick.
Nice leg kick from Andrage.
I don't think Dern like that very much.
Oh, man, but Dern is so tough.
Yeah, she is.
That's what's kind of crazy about this,
is that Androge, like, thrives on the chaos,
but, like, Dern is, like, down to hang for it.
Right in the middle.
Dern is okay standing and striking with Androge.
Yeah, do we see or go for any takedowns?
Like, I know we just had the one there,
but that felt like circumstantial.
Very scrambling.
I think if they end up against the fence
in some kind of weird exchange,
we'll see the hip-toss of an inside trip.
Maybe after the last fight, Dern, it's just like, I'll strike.
I'll strike.
Just throwing those leg kicks, nice return from Androge.
Just standing on the monster can.
Dern continue to pump that jab out.
Two minutes down.
Not a ton of.
of action here on the Andrage side.
I think Dern is probably expecting Andrade's come in
a little more aggressive here, but Andrade's just landing
that light kick over and over again.
Dern trying to find some openings.
Oh, there's a nice shot.
Oh, good my hand from Dern.
That was nice.
We're hearing some translation.
Did you say Thug Life?
Maybe that's like a Peyton Manning call?
Yeah, a little audible.
Omaha, Omaha.
Yep, exactly.
Oh, upper cut action?
Yes.
Maybe that's the thug life move.
Fake a takedown throw an uppercut.
All right.
All right, we're deciphering the codes.
Let's steal some signs here for Androj.
Dern striking has gotten so much better.
Oh, man.
Tried some spinning shit there.
Did not work out.
And Raj just thumping those leg kicks in there, though.
Another one.
Oh.
Oh, so big shots of go!
I don't think that was a knockdown, though.
Okay, she slipped.
She slipped.
I thought she dropped her.
Dern's cracking, man.
my eyes popped up
no no reaction from anyone else
oh no no no no no no no nothing
oh good right hand from Androge
90 seconds left
more leg kicks oh good right hand
oh wow they're just throwing them now
Dern just looks like she's having
yeah she's like I can't tell if it's her mouthpiece
or she's literally just smiling through this
she's very happy yeah she's smiling through this
like
I mean she is
she's smile
She's landing these leg kicks, though, on Drogh.
Like, these have got to be hurting after a while.
She's putting money in the bank there.
She's not to Joe Rogan.
You don't mention the leg kicks.
No worries, Joe.
Oh, she got a kick.
Dern's just coming up just like a little short on a lot of these punches.
But when she's landing...
Oops, goes for a single leg.
Oh, this could be a big moment here.
Andrade's trying to defend.
One three seconds left. Interesting.
I think Dern might finish this.
Oh, good job by Just Condra.
Just getting some separation.
Nice by on drudge, for real.
Very nice.
She's got Dern back it up now.
Wow.
Oh, Dern looks.
Oh, some B.
Oh, dropped her.
Can she hang on?
Three, two, one.
Oh, some hammerfish.
Wow.
Saved by the bell.
Saved by the bell.
Yeah, Maggie D.
I saw, Mackey D.
I saw it.
You could see it in Dern's eyes.
She was back it up.
I don't think she wanted to get kicked in the leg again.
Do we have any, do we have our whiteboards?
First times we got to go to the scorecards.
It's 10-9 on droge for me.
I mean, if you're scoring it 10-9 for Dern, you're wild.
You're out of your, you're out of your bananas there.
I mean, we got Joey.
We got Joey on the case.
This guy's the man.
I mean.
Hoo, nice to walk around a little bit.
Catch a little breeze going.
That door opened up and it just got 20 days.
What's Frank God it said out in here, man?
82?
Like, I'm sweating.
Um, 72.
Never sweat like this in my life.
Gotta stay hydrated in there.
His leg kicks are nasty.
Yeah.
Can we get a replay of the drop there?
That's not a knockdown.
Come on.
A lot of, oh.
That's a knockdown.
Yeah, that's a knockdown.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Thank you, Joe.
Thank you, Joe.
Thank you, my man.
And he brought the cards.
I mean, he brought the gloves.
Yep.
Hand has cards.
He scores are up 10-9.
And we've got the gloves.
Very nice.
Uh, yeah.
I mean, you know.
You're going to need it to handle that.
Charles Jordane Otto when it comes.
Can't wait. Can't wait.
All right, 10-9, Andrage.
Here we go.
You almost have a grab moment for your Jessica Andrash?
What's the live odds?
What are the live odds, Frankie?
Give us a second.
Ooh, of course.
Stern coming out. Feisty, aggressive.
Look at that.
Justcandrash, minus 270.
Oh.
Shout to team in the back.
Shout to Draft King Sportsbook.
I mean, look at that.
We got the live odds on the screen, people.
I'd love for it to update in real time.
It does, but...
No, I know it does. I know it does.
I just, like, it's open.
You want to leave it up?
No, no, no, no, no.
Okay, man.
We're getting mixed signals here.
Eventually, we're going to get it.
What are we eating back there?
Yeah.
Popcorn.
Oh, the Dill pickle popcorn.
Shout out.
Naccahuccahs.
Nacadocious, Texas.
It's delicious.
It's some of the best popcorn
I've ever had in my life.
They send us like eight flavors.
All right, we're back to it, though.
Yes.
But And Andrade's, uh, yeah.
This is the fight And Raj's clearly wants right now.
she's just battery.
Yeah, it looks like some blood
coming out of the nose from McKenzie Dernier.
Kenzie got to get this thing to the ground
and very, very quickly.
I don't even know if she's going to try.
Yeah, I don't know if that leg is...
Oh, that was a absolutely horrific takedown attempt there.
She's just got... Her wrestling stinks.
Yeah, offensively.
She's just got that one inside trip,
but Androge ain't going to go near and she shouldn't.
I understand why Androge is such a live dog.
I expected more out of Dern.
Dean Thomas making a point right.
You can't believe that this is the same woman that dropped Angela Hill multiple times in the last fight.
I mean, it feels like Androge is moving in the Matrix right now.
Yeah.
It was like she's seeing everything coming.
Yeah.
Oh, those leg kicks, man.
From Androge.
Feels like she's getting a little more.
Oh, all right.
Dern, nice counter right.
I feel like Dern should, like, put her back on the fence.
It feels like she's getting a little more touchy on that leg.
Yeah.
She doesn't like those leg kicks.
Oh, this is good for her.
She's just a little too high.
Oh, my gosh, she is connecting.
Look at that leg.
Look at that like.
Oh, it's nasty.
Hoof!
Oh, back her again.
Adroit's thought she walked.
Yeah, let her get up.
Let her get up.
Yeah.
And Josh thought she got a walk off there.
Kind of looked like it, huh?
Going right back to her.
Big shot.
Yeah, this one's done.
Big shot.
This one's about to be over.
Dirt is so tough.
She's getting absolutely annihilated.
She's not really landing anything here.
She's not really landing anything.
I think there's a lot.
Yeah, a tackleer. Just charge over and tackle her. Oh, Androge are the nice. Oh, there's right. Oh, no way. Oh, gosh again. Oh, wow. Wow, they're still not calling this. KP knows what he's doing. No nonsense. Well, no nonsense. Yeah. Boy, she's, she's battered. Go, Androge. Go, Androge. Oh, yeah. Left hand from Androge. Just go. She's wobbled bad.
All right, call it. Call it. Keith.
Keith, Cahley.
Descan Drudge.
Gets it done.
Under two and a half.
Now, two parleyes have died.
Oh, wow.
That gong sounds great.
I'm over here.
I'm over here banging gongs in the face of Mikey's
But it's okay.
Not sorry.
Lost far lays.
But my other two parleyes are alive.
Last four fights,
fights do not go to decision.
We're on pace here.
Jess Condrage, you must have forgot.
Odd?
Jescona Drive by K.O.
Would have been tasty.
Yep.
Let's see what the odds.
Plus 550 or something.
Let's see what the odds were on that bad boy.
I mean, that would have been a...
Damn.
First time McKenzie Dern ever knocked out, if I'm not mistaken.
I think you may be right.
Jessica Androge wins by K.O.
Plus 500.
Wow.
We've been nice, chat.
As soon as I saw that, I was like, you know what?
I kind of backed the wrong horse.
I probably should have just taken...
I think that was the taste.
How many times did she drop her?
That was, I believe, four or five.
Man, oh, man.
That was a clear, that might have, she was flirt with the 10-7 there.
Oh, yeah, she just kept dropping her over and over.
You win for Andrade.
Man, I'm looking at the Getty images of, I got the ones of steam roller.
The separation, you see that there?
Oh, my God.
It's crazy.
That is a wild photo.
Good performance from Androge.
I mean, she's a tough out.
I mean, that was a huge balance back.
Now, where does McKenzie Dern go from here?
I don't know, man.
She's in kind of a gatekeeperish kind of a mode now, I think.
Yeah.
They kind of like switch roles in a certain respect.
Tough night for McKenzie.
I know she's going through a lot personally as is on drugs.
I was going to say both dealing with divorces.
Yeah.
McKenzie's still a smile on her face or, you're fighting back to you?
That is a smile.
She's got to try to say positive.
She don't look very happy right now.
How about Andrage?
Yeah.
Great game playing with the leg kicks.
Very smart.
Huge bounce back. Huge bounce back for her.
Yep.
Amazing stuff.
This is a nice moment between the two of them.
I mean, so now we move to it.
Joe, oh, I thought Androge is going to keep Rogan hanging there.
Is there a backstory to that?
No.
Oh, she just wasn't going to see it?
It wasn't paying attention.

Hey, guys.
We have a special guest.
All right, let me rip these packs while we introduce our man.
Your man.
Yes.
I mean, everybody.
Oh, my gosh.
Look who's here.
The legend, the goat.
Packer Porter.
What's up, man?
How are you enjoying things so far?
Dude, this has been a great card.
I'm really, really excited, obviously for the main event,
especially since I've trained with Alex
and
you know like I just think
the matchup between him and Yuri
is just insane
like this is like two of the most
like two of the probably
scariest modern day warriors in the UFC
and then you know with the
with the core main event between
Sergei and Aspinall
that's that's gonna be fire
I can't I'm really really really excited
for this car
I mean, like, part of this card, but, you know, watching it is just as good right now.
I mean, the fact that we've gotten three finishes right off the bat on the start of this main card,
and now we're about to get two guys who have, like, the shortest fight time in the UFC among active fighters,
and then we get Yeri versus Alex is just like, I mean, this is a treat.
Like, I can't believe we just got to see these three fights.
Now we get, I mean, these two fights.
I can't, I could not possibly be more excited for them.
I'm beyond pumped, man.
This is like early Christmas for us.
We got a pick?
We got any predictions for Comain and main event?
So for Co-Main, you know, I'm not taking anything away from Popovich in any way, shape, or form.
He's an absolute monster.
He's a scary SOB.
But I think Aspinall is just crisper and cleaner with his boxing.
He's ridiculously fast, especially for heavyweight.
And I think he's going to be more involved.
rounded guy for this fight.
So I can see Aspernel taking away the W for the coal main.
For the main event, I really, really, really, really want to see Alex win this fight.
It's a tough call because both of these guys, Yuri is an animal.
Alex is an animal, protons, an absolute beast.
you know i think it's going to come down to whoever can you know make their game happen most and
you know i got to go with i got to go with poleton like this polo tarotan repin danberry ct got to love it
what is uh what's it like training with a guy like alex perrera who's just kind of stoic but a good
dude but he's super dangerous like what's it like sharing the gym with him that that's 100%
not accurate, like super stoic, but also like one of the nicest guys you've ever, I've ever met.
He doesn't speak English very well, and I don't speak a lick of Portuguese.
Barry or he's just kind of like, and, but like, we managed to communicate with martial arts in training.
You know, like we laugh, we both, we play around with each other.
and the guy when it comes time to work,
when it comes time to fight, he's all business,
but he's also one of the nicest,
sweetest guys just like Glover,
who owns the gym that he trained out of and everything.
It's been one of the coolest experiences ever.
You know, the guy is like,
Clara just hits so hard, man.
There's no question about how he got his nickname
being Stonehands.
because he looks like he's just effortlessly throwing these punches.
And then when they're connecting, you're like, what an actual, like, what is going on?
Like, it doesn't look like he's putting any effort into it.
And then he hits.
And you're like, oh, what was that?
Yeah, man, he just, he's just got dynamite in his hands.
It's crazy.
But he's also one of the nicest freaking human beings I've ever met.
Which is so crazy because he has this demeanor.
of just like dead pants, so serious, absolute killer.
And then he's like, you see him pulling pranks.
You see him having fun with people, obviously his family, the relationship he has with his
kids.
And then anyone that knows him says, like, he's the nicest guy.
We've had him in studio here and like meeting him.
He really is just like nice-ass chill dude.
Yeah, he's super chill, super humble, you know, absolute savage when it comes time to actually
throw hands and get to work in the case.
age or in the ring. But regular life, man, he's one of the nicest guys you ever met.
He's got a sick car now, too. I mean, I heard he whips that Lambo wherever he goes, that blue
one. As you should. So I haven't seen the Lambo, yeah. I've seen his Corvette.
Oh, he's got a Corvette, too? Oh, yeah. He had the Corvette first. He got the Corvette first.
And he would be pulling up to the gym, a training session, and just kind of like eyeball you and be
like, hey, what's up? Boom. I mean, the Lambo is crazy. The blue.
too is amazing.
Blue is my favorite color on top of it.
I love it. I also love
how he's dove in
right into, or dived right
into the whole Easter
Island head, the stone
head thing. I saw him like outside
his house on embedded he had the two
guarding the front door. Like I love
it he's diving in.
I love it. I love it. I saw the picture
on his Instagram with his
wife. He's got the
carrying it around, we adopted a child.
Yes, dude. Like, diving in like that, it just shows more of his personality.
Like, it's so good.
Whoa, okay, look at this.
Oh, wow. We are getting some breaking news. Arnold Allen, Mosear.
Evloev?
Well, we already confirmed that one.
Oh, okay. Dominic Reyes versus Carlos L.
Whoa.
Otno point, AK. That's an otno point.
Chris Curtis.
Jalovich, Alexander Rackich. That's on the car as well.
I heard about that today.
That's a good fight.
Chris Curtis, M.A.B.
Like that one.
Brad Cotonich, Garrett Armfield.
Charles Jordane, Sean Woodson.
Wow, we're going to get a Charles Jordan autographed card later this show, too.
I think they need some heavyweights on this card.
Oh, you want to go to Toronto, Parker?
I mean, it's a short drive.
It's just a hip, hopping a skip up for you, man.
I absolutely love Poutine.
Oh, that's a Poutine, bro.
Dominic Ray is back.
Love this.
This is shaping up to be a pretty nice card, man.
Not too shabby.
Yeah, like, let's see, Mike Moloch can get a big win over Neil Magny?
Mike Mollat is like, he's on a, on a trajectory right now.
I would love to just be at this card just to see Sean Strickland how he acts in Canada.
Oh, my God.
I mean, the fact that his reaction to the fight is just like,
damn it, I have to go to Canada.
Like, it's just so ridiculous.
It makes no sense.
He's going to fight in January, and I sure shit didn't want to go to Canada.
But here we're.
Yeah.
Money talks, bro.
I mean, money will get you to do a lot of things.
He should be, I mean, it's so weird seeing him in Toronto.
It's super weird.
But it's going to be a great fight.
That fight's going to be absolutely wild.
You want to rip a couple of packs before we get to this?
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Parker, you ever opened some of these pinini packs before?
No.
Do we have Parker Porter cards in here?
We're going to have a couple autographed ones going, and look for those coming soon.
All right.
Looks like the camera needs to be turned back on.
I'm going to tell you, gentlemen, something.
You may not believe this.
Brian Minor.
No, dude.
Scored round one.
For McKenzie Dern.
Even though McKenzie got dropped.
He's not, Redmond, didn't give Ritchie 3027, did he?
I think it was him.
Yeah.
10-9 McKenzie Dern, round one from Brian Minor.
The other two judges.
Dropped at the end of the round.
Like, what are we doing that?
I'm worried about some of these judges.
Dude, it's concerning.
Like, that's, that's like an absolutely crazy one.
All right, let's see what we can get here.
We start, Terence McKinney, a little holographic T-Rex there.
Love that.
We move.
Ooh, Marnar Magamadeov.
Usman in the news today.
What is this?
This looks kind of crazy.
A little throwback, Frank Meere.
Not bad.
I feel like I got turned around on the cards here.
There we go.
We got Zhang Wei.
Champ.
Muhammad Mohive.
Champ.
Jack Delam Adelam Adelana, my guy.
A little JDM?
What do we got here?
A little Dan Hooker at a 199.
Not bad.
Not bad.
And then a Justin Taffa season ticket there.
We don't want that.
We don't want that.
We don't want that.
We don't want Justin Tava.
Go ahead and throw that one out.
We don't need it.
We don't want it.
You know, it stings, but good for him.
We're about to pull a Parker Porter one of one right here.
Nothing but respect to the guy.
To be admit, if you pull a,
Park Reporter autograph right now, it'd be
one of the best moments we'd better have.
We start with a Carlos Oldberg
out of $1.99. I mean, you got to appreciate
that. He's looking good.
He's looking good. It looks good coming off the bus.
A little Sean O'Malley.
A little Sean O'Malley holographic there.
Still a weird design.
Whoa! Oh, we got an auto!
A little Derek Brunson auto.
That's right up the alley.
We get a PFL fighter.
We all love and respect
that Derek Brunson, but like the autos are always so
random that would pull.
Shout out to Terry Brunson, though.
A little Raul Rosas, man, the guy's got
training cards and he's 18 years old.
That's great.
Incredible. Yeah, that's wild.
You never would have gotten that out of me at 18.
I mean, dude, I don't even know what I was doing
at 18. I definitely didn't have trading cards of myself.
Taito Ivasa, Juliana Rosa.
Ooh, a little Tyler Santos.
Yes, now former UFC fighter.
What is this? This looks pretty crazy.
A little hologo.
Graphic Chronicles Corey Sannigan out of 25.
That's a good one.
I think that tops our Patty Pembleau out of 25.
I think Corey Sannigan, leader in the club out.
That's nice.
Very nice.
That's nice.
All right.
Two more packs to go.
We'll rip those before the main event.
That means we still got one auto left.
I feel like it's going to be a Parker Porter.
Wait, who is probably somebody who just got released.
It's going to be someone so random.
Yeah.
That's how it works.
I think it's going to be Charles Dordane.
I like what you would think there.
Maybe an Irene Al-Dana,
as random as we can get.
Oh, who we got here?
This is Tom Aspinall.
This fight's going to be friggin' awesome.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
This is going to be an amazing fight.
Really.
I love...
I'm saying, like, obviously we've seen Sergey has amazing
and absolutely devastating power,
but so does Aspinall.
And I just think that Aspenal
Apennal is the more well-rounded athlete in this fight.
You know, I think that's going to be a huge factor for him.
He's super explosive, incredibly fast.
I don't think you're going to see him get suckered into,
just kind of sitting in the pocket and slugging it out with Sergey,
like some of these other guys.
I think he's going to be able to kind of get on his bike and run where he needs to,
when he needs to, and encounter intelligently.
love that breakdown man i mean i i loved hearing him this week i think he said something along the lines
of they asked them like are you like you keep saying how like scary sergey pavlovich is he's just like
are you scared going into this one he's just like of course i'm scared look at the guy like he's as he's
he's ivind drago he's terrifying but like that's when i work best like is when i'm scared is when i'm
on edge is when i have to fight that's when i work best which is just crazy to think about i love it i love
it because it's true, you know,
anybody that's in there like,
oh, I'm not afraid of this guy or this is, you know,
that's bullshit.
Right.
I mean, it has to be, dude.
How could you,
how can you see Sergei Pavlovich's last five, six fights
and not think, like, at least let your mind escape to like,
damn, what if he does that to me?
Like, there's a chance that he does that to me.
Absolutely, absolutely.
And if you're not for one minute,
you're just not an intelligent human being.
Yes, like, I'm talking about,
Of course, across the course of the 24 hours of the day when you're falling asleep or you're alone in the shower and you're thinking about the fight and it's just like, what if it does do that to me?
That thought absolutely will creep into anybody's mind regardless of even if they're, you know, prepared for this on a three months notice, never mind on a three weeks notice.
Right. Three weeks ago, did they know about this fight?
I don't think so.
Oh, my God.
No. Yeah. What was it? How short of a notice fight was this?
12 days.
12 days?
12 days.
That's insane.
That's insane.
That's insane.
Let's go, man.
So that means this time two weeks ago.
That we're all in right here.
You know, like be prepared for anything because it can happen whenever.
That's, dude.
I mean, that's a fact.
And I mean, like, I guess, I guess stay ready so you don't have to get ready.
But that means when he was watching UFC 294, like, if he was chilling on his couch,
it's just like, hey, Tom, you're actually going to be at MS.
gee, in three weeks fighting for the interim title.
It's just like, no, I'm not.
No, no, I wasn't ready for that.
So, Parker, one of the, like, takes that I've heard the last couple of days is that because of the short-notice nature, that Tom might come out and kind of treat this fight like Steepa treated Francis the first time, where a lot of top control, he's going to test Pavlovich's ground game.
And we haven't really seen it since the Overeem fight,
and boy, Overeign was able to keep Padovich down that entire time.
And I know it was a while ago,
but every Pavlovich fight since then has been like a minute,
and we haven't seen him tested on the mat at all.
So do you feel like Aspinall comes out super aggressive here
and just tries to get him out quick,
or do you think this could be one of those situations
where Aspedal tries to extend this fight
and try to test Pavich's ground game?
So if I'm Aspinall, I'm not actually looking to be...
too quick to engage because that's when Sergey,
I feel like Sergey is the most dangerous.
It's like early on in the fight, like right away.
He's super explosive.
I want to be a little more tentative and kind of like wait and see for,
you know,
wait for my opportunity to close distance intelligently,
you know,
duck under like a big missed hook or or some kind of wild looping punch that he's
pretty known for throwing.
You know,
and then work in from there for my take down or my clinch,
definitely going to be considering, you know,
working the ground game,
especially if I'm Tom Aspinall with the background that I have,
with the speed and the athleticism and the timing that he's got going on for himself,
I'm 100% going to be looking to time it, but not rush it.
You know, not taking anything away from Overeem,
but Overeem's not exactly known for his ground,
but if he kept Sergei on the ground,
And, you know, I think Aspinall's got an even better shot of keeping Sergey on his back
and do it a lot more damage and possibly finishing the fight from there.
I can't wait to see how it plays out, man.
Oh, my God.
Aspinall's not wrong, dude.
This is a scary looking guy.
Like, he does not look phased right now.
No.
No, he's like a substantially more intimidating Fedor.
Yes.
And he's kind of like, plank, I'm Russian, and nothing scares me stare.
He's built like a fridge.
Like he is built like a refrigerator.
He's a massive guy.
And he's super explosive.
Yes, dude.
Yes.
And like it's,
it really is like a lot of the times.
It's not this like one punch ice you.
Like it's like with this like insane speed flurry of punches while they carry a ton of power.
It's every,
he hits you back up.
He hits you again.
He wakes you back up.
Like it's crazy, dude.
Go to sleep.
Wake up.
Go to sleep.
Wake up.
It really is crazy, man.
Like, it's...
Shout out to Tom Aspinall for stepping in.
Shout out to Sergey Pavlovich as well.
Because Tom Aspinall, he might seem a little more friendly.
He's a scary dude as well.
Let's see how scary these guys are real quick.
No different from our main event coming up.
You know, like you said,
Herrera is one of the nicest guys you've ever met,
but I would not want to stand across with him in the game.
No, no.
Let's go to the tail of the tape here for this co-made.
event for the interim.
Heavyweight championship.
Here we go.
I'm nervous.
I cannot.
Come out and say it.
Here we go.
Right there.
Pavage 18 and 1.
Couple more fights experience.
Aspinall a year younger,
two inches taller,
but has a six inch reach disadvantage.
That's so crazy that Pavlitz has an 84 inch.
And that's one of the other thing that's crazy about Fergay is.
He's got almost the same reach.
He's got the same reach as John Jones.
It's crazy.
It's long, bro.
That's wild.
Absolutely wild.
Dan Mergliata getting the assignment.
How do we feel about that, Frankie?
Dan's the man.
Dan is the man, as they say.
The spotlight on Donald Trump.
As a ref, it's been a great experience.
Oh, I love that.
I love to hear that.
Yes.
He's a good guy.
I look at a smile on Tommy Aspinall's first.
Take it in, Tom.
Take it in, Tom.
Take it in.
I mean,
This is some intense shit.
A complete pick-em here.
Closes minus 1-10-1-10-1.
That's what I love about these last two fights, man.
Vegas ain't telling you.
They don't know.
No one knows.
I've got goosebumps right now.
MSG, too.
Like, and it doesn't get any better.
Like, they're in New York.
They're in the world's most famous arena.
Woo!
261 for Tommy Aspinall.
Most he's weighed for any fight since he's been in the UFC.
Yeah.
You got to ask yourself.
You got to wonder, you know,
is that bad weight gain from inactivity because of the injury that he's recovering from,
or is that good weight gain, you know, from putting in extra work with lifting weights
and things like that to rehab that knee and prevent, you know, things like that from happening again.
That's a good point.
That's a good point, man.
Havitch is just like...
Look at him.
He just waves at the crowd.
It's like he's walking his dog right now.
That's what I'm saying.
He literally looks like he's waving to his neighbor.
across the street. Yes, like he's walking to the store to, like, buy a pack of cigarettes.
Yeah. Like, he's, he looks completely unfazed.
Look at this, man. This is so cool. They're like arm and arm.
It feels like now, it's like, it feels like now they're, they're really starting to sink in.
This is about to have. That was wild. I don't know how I feel about that, man. Like, that was a
cool moment, but also at the same time, it's like, oh, shit. Yeah. This is about to either be an
absolute war or this is going to be over in a freaking blink of an eye.
Oh my God.
It's almost like they, it was like a non-signed agreement that we're just going to get after it.
All right here we go.
Here we go.
We are underway.
Aspinol just bouncing around like a welterweight.
It's crazy.
Oh,
nice leg kick for Tommy.
What do you think of the tat there?
That's a, look at that back tat.
Oh, it's massive.
Love it.
Bouncy.
Bouncy for Tom to start.
I love seeing it.
I love seeing the athleticism.
It feels like, it feels like we're just waiting.
Everybody always looks at the heavyweights
as just being these big, just, you know,
throwing these slob knocker punches and just being, you know,
brawlers, but I love seeing the athleticism out of Asper.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, Padillard's Lins.
Oh, and the head movement.
All right, Aspernel.
Love the head movement from Tom.
I like to see him eat one too.
Like to see him take one there and then not get two-faced.
You see Asperdala's face, though, he's like, whoa.
Yeah, whoa.
We're in here.
It's nice to get that.
I can't speak to it, but it's,
It's nice, you know.
You feel the power, you know, you kind of are like, all right, here's what we're working with.
Ooh, look at the head moment from Tom.
That right hand landed.
Oh, good light kick from Aspinall.
Oh, oh, big God.
It's over.
That's, that's, that's it.
Oh, Al, Spinole with the wave.
Wow.
Just like that.
Tom.
Espinall.
Hit it, Frankie, hit it.
What did I tell you guys?
What did I tell you guys?
Nailed it.
Wow.
Weird.
It's like I know some shit.
Michael Bisbing.
Oh, absolutely good.
Let's go, Tom.
Look at him.
Look at the emotion.
Oh, my God.
He knocks him out.
Good for him, man.
Good for Tommy.
Absolutely good for him.
What a moment.
Look at Bisping, loving it.
Look at our girl Giuliana out there, too.
Let's go, Tom.
Man.
You know what the worst part about this is?
My guys just slept right through this.
Oh, right through it.
When they woke up.
Oh.
I cannot believe that.
Frankie?
Frankie Parlay pals.
Dude, dude, Frank, that was a great pick.
Yeah, it was the best player.
Tremendous pick.
Never doubted.
Let's see it again.
Like that left end.
sneaky left hand.
Look at Tom.
He's hurt there.
Look at the, oh, man.
Short hook and another cross.
Love it.
His coaches, his team knew the second he landed that left hand that the fight was over.
Oh, I can't believe it.
Look at McGillivie.
He took out the Terminator.
He took out the Terminator.
I am in all.
I'm in all.
Does this performance, could this entice John for another fight?
It might.
I feel like Tom, I think Tom's going to defend this interim title at some point.
I don't think he's just going to sit and wait for John and Steve A
because you don't know when the hell that bite's going to happen.
Yeah, at this point, now that we have the chest injury with Jones,
that could be anywhere from six months to eight months to next year, you know, like a full year from now.
I mean.
Holy cow.
Let's just say like they do Jones Steepay in July, International Fight Week.
if the UFC goes to London for a pay-per-view before that,
they're going to put Tom on the card to defend that against somebody.
And if he comes out just looking like an absolute star,
like if he fights Cyril gone or something and just runs him over
and gets a huge reaction, like, could that entice, John, to get a big...
I think outside of Jones,
I think Aspinall and Cyril are like the top two.
That would be the fight to make in my opinion.
Yeah.
Oh, we're about to see gold.
Interim gold, still gold.
Apparently that 261 was in his left hand.
Wow, there it is, Frankie.
Look at that belt.
Look at that image.
Tommy has been all with the belt.
Wow.
Unbelievable.
Good for him.
And on freaking 12 days notice.
12 days notice.
He just iced the terminated.
That's absolutely insane.
Tommy.
Tommy.
Tommy!
That's more.
movie and I add MSG nonetheless.
A minute,
nine, Parker. 69 seconds
it's a shout up.
God damn. Good for him.
What a moment.
Absolutely beautiful.
Does he call John out here?
You have to be. You have to be. It's his dream to fight John Jones.
You have to call him out.
What do you think of the uni's here, Parker?
The what?
What do you think of the gear?
The venom gear.
You know, I'm...
A little different tonight.
It is. It is a little bit different. I do like it, you know. I can't wait to get some.
Yeah. Do we have anything in that? Anything being discussed right now for you?
No, nothing. I'm just waiting, man. I'm just plugging away in the gym, grinding away, making sure that I'm ready because I have a feeling they're going to call me for something early next year.
All right. Wow.
I can't wait for the next Parker Porter fight. I can tell you that much.
I appreciate that.
I mean, at this point, he's a two-time.
I mean, this is the most of fighters ever joined us.
I mean, he's two-time.
He's the king of watch-party guest them.
Yes.
We might have to have a watch party no matter what for the next Parker Porter fight.
I'm trying to set the record, so you got to make sure you get me back.
Yes.
Anytime heavy-wits are clashing.
I mean, I'm not saying this.
I'm not saying this because you're the all-time leader in fighter guest appearances,
but your analysis of the fight and your insight actually is fantastic.
I really do enjoy it, Parker.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
Yeah.
I appreciate that.
I mean, even if you're fighting in that main event or co-main event,
you have to jump on while you're fighting.
Thank you.
Yeah.
We'll jump up.
I'll be like in the middle of the fight.
Stand by.
Hang on.
Hang on.
I'm about to throw a right hand right now, guys.
Wait a second.
Wait a second.
Roll.
That would be historic.
That would be history making right there.
So who would you pick right now, Parker?
If they booked somehow John Jones, Tom Aspinall, who would you pick?
Oh, man, you know, I love Asper.
I think Aspernel did a great job, and I think he would absolutely give John a real hell of a hard time.
But I got to go with John.
Like, I genuinely feel that John Jones is the greatest to ever do this,
to ever step in his cage.
You know, like, he's got that one.
loss on his belt where he got
dequeed against Matt Hamill,
but anybody that's seen that
fight knows that more than
likely should have been stopped far
before that elbow ever
got. Talking about a guy who genuinely
has never lost
a dominant
fighter
from his entire career,
I would have to say John's
going to hands down win.
I mean, look, I think
everyone knows of this point that you and John
have fought.
Yeah.
And I'm not saying,
I'm not saying what I'm saying because of the same.
Oh, no, 100%.
100%.
I genuinely feel that way.
Like, there was a point at which
where after we fought where
I was like, I'm going to get that back.
I'll catch him in the UFC.
I'll find him. I can fight.
And then like, as he progressed
through his career earlier,
you know, like my career went this way
and his way straight through the top.
And I was like,
I don't think I'm going to get that one back.
You know?
Was it like surreal for you to sort of watch his progression, though?
Like knowing that you guys had fought and did him arguably being the greatest of all time in a lot of people's eyes?
Has that been kind of crazy for you to watch?
Incredibly surreal, but also like simultaneously motivational for myself.
It just, you know, like not that I'm trying to put myself on that.
that goat status, but like, you know, if I've been in the cage with you and you're climbing
and you're succeeding, then I don't see that I shouldn't be able to do the same.
You know, maybe not necessarily to the exact same level, but it's been extremely
motivational to know that and see him going through everything that goes through having the
success that he goes through.
Well, you are the goat of one thing, Parker.
You were the goat of the fighter representing here on the MA Fighting Watch Party.
I appreciate you.
I'm glad we got to spend a few extra minutes with you.
Had a feeling this fight was not going to last very long,
so I didn't want you to pop in for three minutes and then be all donezo.
But we appreciate you hopping on.
Parker, you're the man, brother.
I have to wait the kids up in this main event, though.
Thank you.
Thank you, man.
Can't wait until next time, brother.
You'll definitely be back.
There he is.
The legend, the goat.
Park Report.
What a moment that was.
Holy shit.
Yes.
The emotion from Tom Aspinall there.
Crying on the way back.
Hugging Bisping, Hugging Yohanna.
I mean, with the belt, is incredible.
Let's get him John Jones.
It's 1143.
We're out to start the main event.
I'm loving this card.
This main card has been fantastic.
This main card has been absolutely fantastic.
We are one more finish away from the violence parlay.
Main card sweep.
Oh, my God.
Tom Aspinall.
How are we,
feeling back there, Frankie?
I am without words.
That about sums it up. One more time.
Come on, let's just crank it up. Loud as it'll go.
Loud as it'll go. I want my eardrums to break to this.
Be careful.
And like, how about Frankie?
He's got to be in studio, right? Frankie said, you know who I want in the parlay pals?
Boys. Who do you think I want? He nailed it.
Parlay boys. Tommy Aspinon.
That's just like that. I mean.
Frank has had two of the best picks of the year.
Can we talk about Tom Asperon stepping in on 12 days notice?
He's a beast.
And putting The Terminator out like that, putting Ivan Drogel, putting Sergey Pahlovich,
six straight wins my first round knockout, five straight wins my first round knockout?
Unbelievable.
That was unbelievable, man.
That was unbelievable.
Now this is just icing on the cake.
Now we're getting, like, Yerry versus Alex Pereira right now.
I was very nervous.
I really, really wanted Tom to win.
I very much wanted Tom to win.
We've now checked that off.
I know I'm wearing the Poetan shirt,
but whoever wins this I'm cool with.
Oh, yeah.
I just think this is going to be a banger.
Love both these guys.
Love them.
Could this be the beginning of normalcy
of 205 pounds for the first time?
I'm not going to, I'm not going to say it.
I'm not going to say,
what if we pull to Tom Aspinall Auto right now?
What if in one of these?
If you do it, it goes home with me.
False.
Or wear the sunglasses on the way home.
That is not true.
Please, Don.
I want you to hurt yourself.
And the beginning of this promo is Yuri Perhaska.
swing a ton of sword around.
Just the way you'd expected.
The man.
All right, let's see what we got here.
Watching Yuri highlights of all these crazy knockouts.
All right.
Henry Sehudo.
Henry Sehudo could be fighting Marab de Wallisb to Wallis'Illis.
Rose Nami Unis.
Yes.
Nice.
This is a nice-looking one.
Ooh, what is this?
A little Justin Gaichie out of 99.
Is this the season ticket, Justin Gachie?
Whoa, that's not bad.
That's a good poll right there.
That's not bad right there.
What else we got?
Mark Kerr?
Shout out.
Snashing machine.
Shout out Mark Kerr.
I'm sorry, I need to interrupt for a second.
What is the season ticket thing?
I actually have no clue.
Okay.
That's actually a great question.
Does it don't exist?
Yeah, right.
Like you can never have season tickets for a UFC, like, event.
I wonder if you could actually scan the barcode anywhere.
That issue is like a really good point.
Yeah, I'm sorry to stop.
It's gone off for too long.
I mean, your investigative journalism skills are unmas.
We keep rolling along.
Paulo Costa.
Nice.
A playbook.
A little Amanda Nunez.
Okay.
Chris Gutierrez.
Oh, it's a main event against Song Yudong, December 9.
Shanghai.
And then a Raphael, a son, Sal.
Alfreda's own.
Shout out.
Raphael Suns out.
One last pack.
That means the autos in here.
Autos in this one.
Tom Aspinall autograph.
It's got to be.
Tom Aspinall autograph.
Speak it into existence.
Manifested.
Rainie Aldonner, Charles Jordane.
Let's go.
It's feeling thick.
I think we got the white BS.
I think you've been opening them for the wrong side too.
Amanda Hewis?
Oh, you want me to flip it?
See, that, yeah.
Molly McAllie.
Nice.
Future straw weight.
Anato.
Wow.
Not Moikano.
Who last year cut the promo of Lifetime.
Yes.
Money Moecoe, what is this?
Origins.
Little Josh Hammett.
Six.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, I'm getting nervous, guys.
Move them down a little bit.
Yeah, yeah, sorry.
I'm getting nervous, guys.
Light heavyweight, Daniel Cormier.
But that's out of 99.
That's not bad right there.
Not a bad little Polsky.
Guys, my heart's pounding.
I'm really getting nervous about what this auto's about to be.
A little Loma-Lugumi season ticket.
Season ticket.
You'll be taking that one.
on home, Frankie. I can promise you that.
Oh, boys.
Oh, boys. I think this is the auto
right here, and I think it's a, I
think it's a, like
a patch card. Amanda
Hebas, Islam
Makashev. A champ.
The number one
pound fighter. Oh, my God.
There's no way that
this just happened.
Look what we have.
Arrini Aldana?
Yeah.
Yeah. Yes. You are kidding me. You are absolutely shitting me right now. If you haven't been tuned into the show earlier, I asked Mike, what autographs he thought I was going to pull.
That's the first one I said, too. He said, Irene Al-Donna.
Wow. Here we are about an hour and a half later. And we're staring at an Irene Al-Donna autograph. Nailed it. That's the second time you've done.
done that.
Yep.
I don't know what to say.
I mean,
fuck.
That's pretty insane.
That is incredible.
I'm proud of my...
I'm really...
I'm actually super proud of myself.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Really am.
Maybe next time, like,
maybe guess, an Islamacheshavado or, like...
I don't feel the vibes.
You know, you show...
It is pretty cool.
As soon as you shook it, I said,
Eureeniel.
Yes.
I actually cannot believe that happened.
If we can go back to the camera,
like, this actually is kind of cool
that this looks like this is the,
like, the outside thing
on the shorts where the name.
are. Yeah. So that's kind of cool.
Yeah. It's a good poll right there.
Hey, we got a special guest.
You got a special guest? Is it the wise
wordsmith? It is, in fact.
There he is.
Don't, Janjaheen.
What's good.
Shit that shit.
Sing it, Cheyne.
Can you believe that shit? No. I can't.
That was crazy. I can't.
Inspirational, motivational, everything,
all of the above. Absolutely.
I cannot believe my eyes.
And now I have to take in.
I get to witness Alex Pereira,
fight Yuri Prahashka.
I'm riding a high right now, Shaheen.
I mean, does it get any better than this?
Like, we're just getting spoiled.
This is amazing.
I'm over here asking the same question.
I'm on air with internationally recognized live performer over here,
Connick.
Oh, wow.
What a sell.
The international man of mystery.
The international man of mystery, Mike, heck, I mean,
I'm just living the dream right now.
Y'all, I've been, I'm so stupid excited for this fight.
Like I told Mike a bunch of different times
I could have canceled the rest of the MMA calendar
As long as this one stuck in
This is the fight
I would have been happy
This is the fight dude
It's it's the fight
There's nothing else to say from
From the way that these guys fight
To what they've accomplished in the sport
To the face off with the war paint
And just the Samarowah
Way of Yuri Prahashka
Like just like the aura
That these two give off
That stare down man
That stare down yesterday
holy, you got to towel me off.
That was one of the wildest stardons I've ever seen
where nothing actually happened.
Yes.
It was just intense, man.
Intensity.
I mean, I'm on cloud nine.
And we're about to get the fight.
Alex Ferreira walking in.
I mean, this is the one.
TMSG, it's already two and O.
Two and O in MSG.
Second time headlining.
Sixth UFC fight?
Seventh.
Seventh UFC fight attempting to become a.
11th pro-MMA fight.
Two division.
champ.
If this man wins,
he is a UFC Hall of Famer
first ballot in seven fights, which is
nuts. In one of those fights, he got knocked to
fuck out.
I'm in.
He was on the wrong end of the
knock, probably the knockout of the year.
And now he's headlining
MSG with a chance to become a two-division champion.
Unbelievable.
What a...
This dude is broken MMA.
Yes.
He's broken.
He's broken.
He's broken.
Let's also...
I'll tell you...
They're shattered if he wins this fight.
Let's also not understate that
this is Yuri Prohashka's
fourth UFC fight and he could
become a two-time
light heavyweight champion.
Without actually losing
Yeah,
unreal. That is so
perfectly emblematic of what this stupid
division is right now, but I love it.
I mean, everything about this
fight I love. And
yeah, I mean,
I don't know what to say. I'm at a
loss of words. This main card has been
incredible.
So I can't see the screen that
probably the audience could see what's the bets for this one where are you guys at i'm all i have
is the under four and a half i got it finishing a parley that's still alive and i got it finishing i'm
trying to bring home the parlay boys everyone else have done their job juliana pania check rick check
big frankie in the back with the tom aspen all picked just put the nuts on the table minus
112 he said i i know our boys got it now i'm trying to bring us home plus 321 what a call
frankie oh my god that's what he does it was very obvious
The guy does what he does.
So I'm playing with house money here.
I'm going to have a winning week no matter what.
Humble much?
Wow.
I have to take a look at it.
So I have Pereira, straight.
I have main event over one and a half at minus 150.
And then this could close out two parleyes.
Main event under four and a half.
And last four fights do not go the distance.
So I'm like, I love how hanging around these degenerates has just gotten you completely into this betting world.
Only took him about like 13 watch parties, but eventually he's like, you know what?
I'm going to start doing bets too.
I'm just like, you damn right.
And then he's sweating out split decisions between Tabitha Ricci and Lupida Godinez.
He's like, oh, we got a split.
We got a split.
I'm like, he's in.
He's so in deep.
He's so in deep.
Am I going to steal a plus 140 Ritchie ticket right now from horrible judging?
Oh, man.
Eerie Pro-Hashka.
How old Brian Miner, dude.
I mean, this guy has got two of the best cards of the year.
I mean, Brian Miner with three of the worst cards tonight, too.
Oh, my God.
You see him giving McKenzie Dern a 10-9-2?
Stop.
That might be one of the most egregiously scored rounds I've ever seen.
Like, it was a fairly close round, and then McKenzie Dern got dropped bad at the end.
No, that sounds like a McKinsey Brown.
I actually said on this watch party,
we were like,
don't need the whiteboards,
because,
yeah,
it's just obvious that was a,
that was a Jess Conrudge 10-9.
Hey,
Brian Miner was looking at,
he was looking at something fun in the crowd
when that happened.
I was going to say,
did he just already plug in a 10-9?
And he was just like,
too late to change it.
I mean,
what do you want him to watch the whole round?
Come on, man.
That's a good point.
That's a good point by you.
He's like one of those kids in class
who want to finish the test first.
So he just wrote the nine down.
and then just hand it over the paper as soon as the horn.
You know what?
I didn't think there'd be anybody more excited about this main event than the three of us.
But I was wrong.
Yuri Pahashka seems more excited about this made event.
Three of us.
He looks so ready to go.
Look at the look on that dude's face.
Is there anyone that like just like craves going to war more than Yuri Pajshka?
Look at this.
Maybe Alex Barrera.
I swear to God.
Maybe Alex Pereira, yeah.
When we discovered time travel, someone will be able to time travel back into ancient
Roman find out that these two dudes had
doppelgangers fighting in the Coliseum
at this exact type of setting.
I love it. Yes, like, I really do
sometimes think that. I'm just like, yeah, this was
like, uh, I don't know,
like, L'O'Hourriere, dude.
Don't get this, man. There he is.
This is him. This is him. If you're not watching
the broadcast, this is what we're seeing right now.
That's all it is. Like, the dude is just
stone face. Jerry is growling
at him. This is just everything. He's on a knee
growling at him, like
a rabid dog. Every time he
fights too, dude. He is just
like stoic, not
moving, no expression,
and he's just standing there with his arms
by his side. Oh my gosh.
This is going to
last 12 minutes and it's going to make everyone's
fight of the year list. That's my call.
I love that. I love that call. Let's go to the tail of the tape.
One last time for the main event.
For the vacant light heavyweight title.
Alex Berger closing as a minus
125 favorite. Come back
at yours. Jeez. I
can't take five hours I figure right now.
There you go.
Obviously, the incredible experience difference
from an MMA perspective on the Pajaska side.
Phrasca five years younger.
Ferreira, an inch taller.
Pajaska, one-inch reach advantage.
Both men under the championship limit.
Brian Miner, not a judge.
So we're going to be okay.
Mark Goddard, the referee.
Just look at Mark, man.
He's like, he like poses.
He's like holding under the cage.
I would buy a calendar.
Heartthrob.
Look at his shot over.
Yuri's shoulder, Bruce Buffer in the middle.
Alex Pereira just looking.
Stone cold.
Like, has he blink?
I was going to say, has he blinked yet?
Can anybody check?
And then Yeri's just like, he's like leaning forward.
This is so good.
Whoa, the zoom in.
Camberman hit the Quix zone.
I love it.
He is so happy to be here.
Oh, this is so good, dude.
This is so good.
The adrenaline Bruce Buffer must be experiencing right now is off the chart.
Oh, my gosh.
This is incredible.
Can you just imagine, like, whatever kind of mindset this man must have to be staring across it at Alex Pereira, making this face.
And your reaction is to grin.
Like, that's what's going on in your body.
It was like that, dude, I'm about to fight that guy.
This is great.
Oh, my God.
I'm like, I'm like, there's sometimes in the sport where it's just like the event is so good, the fights are so good, and they're all delivering so well.
It's like, you're just like on a high.
And like, I'm riding that from the Aspinol into this.
And I'm just, I'm enjoying every moment in this.
Look at Prohashka, dude.
Prohashka looks like he's about to get a, like, a cookies and cream milkshake delivered to him.
The video team shouts.
Video team's killing with the Zooms here.
And I love it.
Every time Perere, he starts the jog as Bruce Buffers hyping him up.
Oh, my gosh.
3-0 is a UFC favorite.
Okay.
I almost feel like that's the plan.
Like, he's like, I'm not moving until Bruce is money.
You got to also respect.
He's stoic.
He doesn't move.
and he doesn't even look at Bruce either.
He's like not doing it.
You're not getting a fist bump out of me, brother.
I got my eyes on the prize, and that's Yuri Pajasca.
Give a little hand raise.
That's all you're getting.
Glover to share it with the best beer to the week.
The thing is full and festive.
You got to really give respect for...
You got to really give respect for Bruce Buffer moving around the cage.
You know, you get boxing and they're just kind of standing in the middle.
Bruce Buffer is like roving.
He's getting right.
in their face.
Uri Perashka looks like my child when he's about to run downstairs to open his Christmas presents.
Like he's just standing at the top of the stairs like, can I go? Can I go?
G.C. Have you ever heard the story of Bruce Tair and his ACL trying to do the 360?
No. Oh my God.
You should Google that tonight after all of this.
Yes. My ride home will be reading that on the phone. Look at it. It's a very, it's a very silly situation.
Oh, man. Here we go. The intros are done. God are giving the phone.
Look at these two.
Look at these two!
No arm in arm like we saw in the combane?
Oh, the double.
This is it.
Here we go.
All respect.
All respect.
Let's go.
Shit, this is crazy.
Oh, my God.
I'm feeling all kinds of feelings right now.
Oh, dude.
It looks like Yuri is doing the twist.
I just don't understand this, man.
Bill Burr.
Bill Burr.
Bill Burr.
Bill Burr.
Kill their seats.
All right.
There we go.
You said it on me, Frank.
Here we go, dude.
Yuri throwing the, at least first strike attempt,
a...
It's a good star.
Measured measured leg kick.
There might be a little feeling out process.
Oh, yeah.
You're rocking the deep cut shorts.
I mean, that's almost up to the hip.
You don't see that often.
Pereira comes up short on a leg kick.
I'm watching this, and I have to remember
that I'm actually on a watch party, and I have to talk.
I know.
Yes, yeah, I know.
Like, I want to be frozen here.
I just want to see.
see this all play out.
Oh, Pereira, the kick that comes up just a tad short.
Donald Trump watching an amazement right now.
We just had Parker Porter on, and he was talking.
Ooh, a little uppercut.
Oh, it was nice.
He was talking about when Pereira's, like, going at it.
It, like, he feels like he's just flowing, just kind of just, like, moving so effortlessly.
Oh, my kick drops here.
Sheesh.
I'm just going to stop with that story.
There's too much going on here.
I'm sorry.
Look, look these leg kicks.
What is going on with this?
We saw him do it to D.C. earlier this week.
Uri's talking him a little bit.
Oh, all right.
Like, how do you prepare for Uri Prasca?
Dude.
He's switched stance switching.
Just the unpredictability of the man.
Like, Yiri Pulaska is such a massive human being.
And for Alex to be his size is just crazy.
Yes, dude.
Like, Yeri could never make $185.
No.
No, never.
He's massive.
These leg kicks are landing, dude.
Brasher's already limping.
Jamal Hill gave a breakdown of this fight earlier,
and he was like, yeah, he thinks the leg kicks are going to be a difference.
So far, Jamal Hill is spot on.
But Yuri don't care.
Ferris still hasn't blinked since the second clockout.
Oh, yeah.
A little head kick from Yuri.
Just so many different looks from Yuri in this fight.
Oh, he's a single.
This is a big moment here.
Pereira trying to offend.
Can you imagine?
Can you imagine?
Maybe jumps in gully right now?
No way.
Is he going for it?
He's saying it's tight.
Is he sleep?
No way, dude.
There's no way.
No.
This would be absolutely safe.
No, no, no, no.
All right.
There was for like a half moment there.
Whoa, you're going to fix them up, slams him down.
All right.
Whoa.
There was a moment there for a second.
I thought he went to sleep for a second there.
But Yuri probably just like took, he took like a five second nap.
Like he probably times those throughout the week.
Yes.
Just in case he gets.
Yes, he's never slept for more than 30 minutes at one period of time.
What, you don't take five second naps, you crazy?
Let's see how he'll work from top, man, 151.
I mean, we've seen Alex Pereira struggle on the ground.
Let's see what Yuri could do here.
So far, defensively, not bad from Pereira, hasn't taken any strikes.
Oh, Yuri do it, just rubbing his elbow on the face of Alex.
He's not even throwing it.
He's just rubbing it on his face.
Perre doing a decent job right now,
like not taking any damage.
Yeah.
Half guard.
He could get the side control here.
He's just got to get that right leg out.
But Pereer are doing a nice job.
I mean, he's keeping that leg locked down.
I mean, he's right in front of Glover,
which is not a bad place to be.
I was going to say, this has got to be tough work right now for Alex Pereira.
Having Yuri pro Hosh down top of you.
Glover's like right there, just like, hey, just do this.
Yeah, man, like a Yuri, like, oh, there's a big elbow.
There's two big old.
There's a big ones.
Wow.
35 seconds left here in round one.
Phraska trying to get that right leg out,
trying to pin an arm down.
Pereira doing a nice job, but...
Oh, Perasca, a short little elbow.
Pereira trying to get up.
He's working his way up.
He's getting up.
There you go.
And he's on the feet.
Oh, nice into the body.
That was impressive, man.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Ten seconds left.
We haven't had to use these very much.
Yeah, I don't even know who to score this for it.
Oh.
Here you go for the Albuquer.
That's it.
Okay.
Good rounds.
Not the round I expected, but a good round.
What are you going with?
10-9, Alex.
I think I agree.
I don't think Yere did enough on the ground there to...
You're going, Alex?
I'm going, Alex.
I thought he had too much success with the leg kicks.
He's going to 10-9, Yuri.
I like it.
I love the dissension here.
Those light kicks were nasty.
That's my knee jerk.
I don't feel good about it, though.
Yeah, I could...
I would not be shocked at all if...
How much do you know on this one?
If all three scorecards were not
the same. Yeah, I mean, we have four right here and they're all different. Well, I mean, two
and two. What's the Twitter sphere saying? Well, we'll find out. They'll pop them on the screen.
Those light kicks were really working, dude. And I thought I always had good defense.
I'm praying. I'm hoping we don't need the score cards in this one. It just doesn't even
matter. I mean, if we go to the cards, this will be one of the craziest fights of all time.
I mean, either of these guys by decision had to be a crazy number.
I feel like it was a decent size price.
Four figures each.
Edwards versus Covington.
Coming up next, December 16th.
We get a whole week, a whole month off from pay reviews, huh?
Yeah, we get a little bit of a breather.
Gary with a jab.
I don't know if Yuri's talking to Alex or he's just talking to himself right now,
but I'm here for it either.
Kevin Ioli gives you your 10-9
I mean a lot of people seem to be with Sean
Yeah
And then Jared Gordon with the
Just the tweet no score
Just Godzilla versus King Kong
Oh
So we got a couple scores for prayer
It's super close round
This is so intense
Like I'm just waiting for something huge to happen
I feel like it's coming
Yeah it just feels like a big explosion of something's
Yeah
inevitable here for hash god
center of the octagon
oh a little flying kick
to the body
to the upper thigh
I mean just
Uri's offense is just something
nice body shot right there
you can just see Pereira like trying to figure
this all out it's hard to figure out man
yeah you can't mean right
dude is such
there are no glory kickboxers who were fighting like Yuri
oh that's a good kick from Alex
and Yuri seems like yeah
Nice.
Nice.
Keep ticking me.
Please.
Is the leg getting affected?
Just total hands down.
Yes.
That's the yeary way.
The airy way.
Hands in the pockets, dude.
The disrespect.
That's a wild thing to do against Alex.
Oh.
Oh, right hand from Erie.
Nice name.
Nice uppercut.
Got them up against the fence.
Oh, big.
Right hand from here.
Oh, there's a good.
Oh, big left.
Oh, great hand from here.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh, great.
Right in.
Oh, they're swinging.
Whoa, big knee.
Release your parade.
Oh, look at him.
Heary's going at him now.
Oh.
Ooh, this is the spot with Alex, though, right?
Against the fence.
I feel like don't clench it up here, Yuri.
Is he going to take him down here?
I don't know.
I feel like you keep going at it.
Oh, elbow.
Short elbow.
Ah, Pereira.
Get some separation.
Ooh.
This is so intense.
I know.
My heart's beat.
My heart's beat, man.
Mark Goddard.
very closely.
Detus and MDs, love them.
From Mark Goddard.
Yeah.
Shout out.
Shout out looking good.
Man, those leg cakes.
That got Yuri to switch quick
right back to the stance, though.
Yep.
I felt like Yuri, like, I kind of missed an opportunity there.
Shout out to Yuri for faking a head.
Oh.
Nice left hand.
If that landed.
Nice knee, though.
Chewing up those legs.
Yep.
Tie it up against the fence here.
Let's see what Yuri can do.
Is he going to try to take him to?
down.
Deal with that top knot all up in his face right now.
Oh.
And I hit my over one and a half.
Let's go.
Good shit, brother.
Good shit.
All right.
Over one and a half.
Now I got all the pressure on for the under four and a half.
Can we thread the needle?
Yes, I have under four and a half as well.
Oh, nice leg kick.
Oh, a little leg kick.
That was like a calf kick.
Yes, bro.
His leg snap bag.
Gary, charged it in here.
Oh.
Oh, no.
Oh, he's on laying him down.
Elbows, short elbows!
Oh, he's out!
He's out!
He's out!
Call it!
El-ehm!
The left hook is what started the sequence.
Jeez.
Wow.
How do we feel about that stoppage?
I don't know about that stoppage.
Dude, no.
When he started landing all the elbows and then Yeri, like, came down, I thought it was,
oh man, yeah, Yeri looks kind of fine now.
I don't know, dude, he got up immediately.
He popped up immediately.
Mark, we got to talk.
Oh, Mark.
How do you feel, Frank, here?
Mark and Alex Pereira.
I don't know.
I felt like that was a good stoppage.
When Yeri fell down, when he fell back down.
Slipped.
Wow.
Yerri gets just flashed so often, and we see him recover from it.
But I mean, Jesus.
Alex Pereira, man.
Two division.
Two division.
Yep.
Two division.
Two division.
He's broken MMA.
It's over.
No ranking show this week.
There's no more rankings.
They're completely broken.
Again, always on.
this back foot with him, man.
Catches you coming in again.
Geez.
All right, let's see.
Boom, boom, boom.
You see him just bought him collapse
with those elbows.
Oh, I don't like this on the broadcast
premature.
Oh, I don't like that.
That left hook is so nasty.
That left hook is so nasty.
Dude, the precision he throws
in these exchanges, the counters with.
Dropped him bad.
Elbows, elbows.
But that...
This is what I thought right here.
he was out right here.
And I think Mark Goddard might have thought the same.
Oh, yes.
Yes.
Oh, Yeri looks pissed.
He's kind of wobbly.
I don't know, dude.
I don't know.
It's boring.
He took a lot of damage.
He took a lot of damage.
Ultimately, that's on him.
The aesthetics were not great.
Wow.
And he doesn't even look like he won because he's not even smiling.
He's just like, yeah.
Let's go.
Holy crap, Shaheen.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow.
Wow. We threaded the needle there over one and a half.
I mean, look, everything, everything hits.
Pereira minus 122, main event over one and a half.
Both parley's cash.
Main event under four and a half, minus 108.
Last four, fight, do not go to decision plus 126.
Successful night at the window.
Successful night at the window for sure. Wow.
Holy Calzones.
What a night at MSG.
What a main card at MSG, I mean, seriously.
It's just past midnight.
Seriously.
the car's over. Wow. I mean, sign me up.
Time me up for that every day of the week.
Dude, Alex Pereira, man.
Jeez. Holy guacam.
Surefire UFC Hall of Famer in seven UFC fights.
Retire now, he will go to the UFC Hall of Fame.
Retire now and he's a first ballot, regardless of what happens.
Retire now and you've accomplished more than 99% of UFC fighters ever.
What is he? Like the ninth guy now to do this?
But he's the fastest to do it.
Absolutely insane.
Absolutely insane.
Donald Trump, looking mildly impressed.
Wow, man.
I wonder Parker Porter's children woke up for that finish
because they were asleep for Tommy Aspinall's title win
in Parker's reaction, which is crazy.
Wow.
Alex Pereira, one of the most remarkable combat sport athletes I've ever watched.
It's crazy, man.
I just cannot believe this, man.
He's a stult.
Alex Perey versus Jamal Hill is going to rule.
Yeah.
Sign me up for that.
Oh, man.
205, why not?
205, why not?
185, sure.
205, why not?
Absolute animal.
This dude is ridiculous.
Oh, a little smile, a little bit of a smile.
Absolute animal.
what the hell man
this dude
just makes no sense
and he once again
he did what is he couldn't
is he tried
couldn't do it
it's freaking insane
I wonder what like
I don't know what like
the reaction on the socials are
for that's I don't know
I see I'm seeing some people saying early
but look at big plane yeah
it was it was a tad early
but again like Yuri took so much damage man
like at a certain point that's on you
don't take all that
damage. Yeah. I mean, it really did in real time, like, look like when he, when he fell out.
That's when it looked like it. Like in boxing, that's a stoppage. They're just stopping that.
Yeah. They don't give you that chance. Dude, two division glory champion, two division UFC champion.
List of just former champs that he has beaten is what, Yeri, Jan, Strickland, Izzy, like, come on, man.
This is ridiculous. It's insane. It's absolutely insane.
I can't believe it, dude.
Wow.
So insane.
And now he has something like completely and wholly separate from Izzy, right?
Like it's one of those things where like DC was a great fighter when he was a light heavyweight champ.
But once he got the heavyweight champ and it was so separate from Jones, that was when he sort of started getting the different level of respect.
And now Alex has that same thing.
It's a good point.
This is wild, man.
Yeah, I'm just, yeah.
What a card.
Where did it?
Where does it?
Yeah.
Where does it rank for the year?
It's one of the best ones.
One more time.
What's up?
One more time, yes.
So we never saw a third round
on the main card.
Nope.
No, we're absolutely right about that.
We didn't see a third round.
Not a single third round to be had.
Absolutely incredible.
Absolutely incredible.
Prayers.
Just...
I can't believe this.
It's so crazy, man.
Like, what a singular
career. We will never see someone do with this guy. Yes. What he has done in the time that he's done
it in. It's crazy, dude. Oh, Plino, looking good up there in the green. Who's he calling out right now?
Who's he talking about? I'm trying to figure it out. Is he calling out? Is he's calling out? Is he?
Wow, yeah. Oh, to come up to light heavyweight. Wow. I mean, it feels like Jamal Hill,
right? Hashtag Wood Watch. Jamal Hill looks ready to go.
Yeah, but Gordon Ryan in the bag.
But here's the deal.
But the thing is, he's not ready to go.
I think this is kind of brilliant, though.
I think this is kind of brilliant on Alex's part.
Because Alex ain't going to sit around and wait for Jamal Hill.
He's just not.
He's going to want to get in there and try to get a big fight.
So go get your easy fight, and then you win.
Then you fight Jamal.
Because Jamal's, it's like Jamal's going to be ready to fight in March.
You know what I mean?
Like, Jamal probably ain't going to be ready to come back to, like, next summer at this point.
if that i think that summer's even summer's even generous yeah because that'd be a year from
the actual or a or alex perrera uh makes one final cut to middle weight to become a double chance
oh god no i don't want to see that he's already yeah oh my god man or you could just not cut weight
at all you can just go fight tommy assman all right now we're talking i like this
oh my third go for the third belt who wouldn't want to last that first ever three to
vision champ let's do it
heavyweight Pereira oh let's do what Yuri's
got to say you're he's got to say
uh oh he's saying perhaps early
stoppage early
Yuri says
Yuri says
he says he was out
he credits the stoppage
Wow
True Samurai
Wow
What did he just
What did he just qualify it with though
I didn't hear it
He said he was out
But then he said something afterwards
And I don't know
And I was too busy talking
So
Thank you, Alex.
Thank you, Alex.
I think he will be back.
Thank you for teaching me a lesson.
I think he will be back.
This guy's the man.
Studd.
Alex Pereira, two division UFC champion.
Yeah.
Can't make more 85 anymore.
Let me just go grab the 205 belt and two fights.
We'll never see a career like the stars aligned so perfectly for a guy ever again.
That's the thing, man.
is like in two divisions now,
there are probably like four or five guys
who could probably beat him on like a good night.
And like it's just been so perfectly curated for him.
I was going to say,
we've heard that his entire UFC career.
Now he's,
now he's like,
I mean like,
after the Andres McAletus fight
where he got controlled like the whole first round,
it's just like,
ah, well,
he's got to do is fight a grappler.
And now here we are,
when was the Andreas Mikalitis fight?
Two years ago.
And now we're looking.
It was 2021, right?
Yeah.
Now two years later, he has won a belt in 185, won a belt in 205.
Oh, yeah, by the way, he also has a first round knockout win over the current 185 champion.
Yes.
And he's the only fighter in UFC history to have three wins at Madison Square Garden.
The seven fights.
Dude.
And the only fighter to headline.
Almost 50% of his fights.
Almost 50% of his fights have taken place at Madison Square Garden.
He's won all three of them.
over 25% of his UFC fights have been
headlining Madison's Square Garden
More than 50% of his fights have been against
Current or former champions
Yeah
Insanity dude
Over 30% of his fights have been for
A title
This dude does not make sense
Neither of these guys
He's just breaking math like he's breaking everything
I know I'm like trying to put any percentage that I possibly can
Wow
What a night at the guy at the guys
Garden, what a night in New York City. Sheesh. Sheesh.
12.4 million.
Look, he's also got two of the three highest
highest gates at MSG. There you go. That's crazy.
Wild.
Alex Pereira.
There's no way this is a sellout, though. There's just no
frigging way.
They're going to say that it was.
I don't even think you could even
claim that. Now, why do you think it didn't sell out?
Because of the card or because it was
priced out? Both.
I think it was priced out, dude. I looked at
some of those tickets, I was like, there's just no way.
But there are a lot more tickets sold when John was fighting,
and then when he got pulled, there were a lot more tickets on sale.
Yeah.
Back to the apex we go next week.
Oh, yes.
Middleweighty, middleweight title on the line.
You thought we couldn't do better than this?
We're gonna next week at the apex with a top 13 middleweight bout.
That's actually, Alan Craig's going to be pretty fun, though.
No, no, I don't disagree.
And then we go to
Then we get Thanksgiving, a rare weekend up
