Starting point is 00:01:20 Listen to Oscar winner Brendan Fraser reprised his role as Rosco Cudulian in this follow-up to the audible original blockbuster, the downloaded. It's a thought-provoking sci-fi journey where identity, memory, and morality collide. Robert J. Sawyer does it again with this much-anticipated sequel that leaves you asking, what are you willing to lose to save the ones you love? The downloaded two, Ghosts in the Machine, available now, only from Audible. Welcome to MMA Fighting's UFC pay-per-view watch party.
Starting point is 00:02:03 Watch along with MMAfighting.com as we check out the main card of another UFC blockbuster event, results, game, surprises, and the best reactions to the craziest moments in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. Live from the Vox Studios in beautiful New York City. Here are your hosts, Mike Heck and G.C. Conorberg. Yes, we are here. We are back. Welcome to the UFC 301 watch party here on MMAFinding.com. I am Mike Heck. That is the legend himself, G.C. Connor Burke. Back in the humble abode here. and all NYC.
Starting point is 00:02:43 I missed it a little bit. Vegas is fun. I missed Vegas a little bit, too. It's nice when it's, what, 645 out there right now? Instead of 945, it's a little bit nicer. Yes.
Starting point is 00:02:53 So far, it has been a fun watch, as expected. I know there's not a ton of buzz here. We got a good one going on, a little bonus watch party action here. Joanna Brito, Jack Shore, getting after it. Feather Up Out, featured prelim.
Starting point is 00:03:07 Cheering for Jack Shore, obviously, got to support my boy Tank. a big fan of his and the whole shore crew. But also, you know, I got a Brazilian favorites parlay that's still alive. So, I mean, I feel like I'm emotionally win or financially win, no matter what happens here. Yeah, so I have a couple of Brazilian favorite parlias going on. One is a nine-leggar that if I hit it, I'm going to donate it to... You're fighting a sneeze back bad.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Sorry, I thought we were going to have our first sneeze on the watch party. I feel like I've never sneezed on it. I thought it was going, and then it just faded away. Oh, yeah, yeah. So I have a Brazilian favorites one. If I wait and I'm going to donate. There's an event at the gym I work out at. It shares a parking lot with the church.
Starting point is 00:03:48 And this church parking lot is a disaster. I mean, it is. Potholes everywhere. It's rough. So they had this huge fundraising event that they wanted me to MC. And they're like, Mike, we need you to be here. I was like, just let me know the day. And they're like, it's going to be May 4th.
Starting point is 00:04:02 I'm like, no? Can't come? I don't know if you guys heard, but it's the biggest UFC pay-review since UFC 300. So I'm not going to be able to make it. I can't make it. It's UFC 301. It's just massive. Just look at this fight card.
Starting point is 00:04:13 And as soon as they looked at it from top to bottom, they got it. They got it. I understand, man. So if I hit it, we'll donate that. Obviously, I got Joe Anderson Brito. But save the parking lot, baby. Let's save the parking lot.
Starting point is 00:04:24 It's creative church. If you want to look it up. But so far, so good. Even if I lose all my main card bets, I'm fine because Dracar Close and Mick Debeck Oralby got victories. Shut out. I can kind of chill out here. A pretty big sweat there at the end with,
Starting point is 00:04:39 Oral Bai losing a point. And then Brenner, you know, I mean, he's always got the dog in him. He came alive. It's looking like there was a chance at a draw, but then I wish we were live for this, because we're in here, obviously watching the fights before we go live here, and you're like with like 10 seconds to go,
Starting point is 00:04:56 Brenner's standing there like a zombie, and you're like, drop up, knock him down, knock him down, and then sure enough, Oral By, boom. Lands a big one, knocks him down, essentially secures the fight and gets it done for you. Cyber relief. So, oh, this is fun. little head kick. Oh, they're going at it, man. Jack Shore is shucking him right now. Brito did Brito things early, but Shores got a little bit of momentum, but now Brito's got the double underhooks.
Starting point is 00:05:19 That shark tattoo on Brito's back is... It's unbelievable. It's crazy, man. It's one of the, it's one of the memorable tattoos on the roster right here. I didn't even know he had. This must be a new piece, because how have we not noticed that? Yeah, I was going to say, it's big, takes up the whole back. It's like the San Jose Sharks logo, like from my old starter cap that I had in like 19, 91. Gosh, man, big takedown from Brita. What do you think of featherweight, Jack Shore? So we've only seen him against McWan-American.
Starting point is 00:05:52 And last time I'm in Bantamweight, I mean, I was at that fight against Ricky Simone, and like he just got manhandled. It's like the difference in physicality, the difference in power of Ricky Simone was jarring in that one. So I kind of felt right to like maybe try and size up a little bit, but this is a great test. Because, like, if he can't handle a Joy Anderson Brito, like, it's tough sledding.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Yeah. I mean, he's still young. He wins a lot. Doesn't get knocked out. So, like, I don't know. I don't know how to feel about it. This is a tough matchup, man. Brito's a savage, and he's fighting him in Brazil.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Brito's just throwing a thousand miles an hour every single shot he's throwing. I'm not going to lie, but beside the early flurry, like, Shores handling himself pretty well. he's taken i mean he's he's been hit a lot like he's hanging in there he's hanging in there that left leg is i was i was worried that that like the the physicality of joannison was going to be like overpowering for him but yours definitely stepped up the aggression here i know jed talks oh look at his leg dude it's it's oh wow yeah the shin is
Starting point is 00:07:01 literally blood dripping down it wow 25 leg kicks already landed by joyness and brito and we're not even halfway through this fight yet I mean, the toughness of Jack Shore, shout out, doing us a favor here, just carrying us all the way up to the main card. Yes, I mean, we love that. We love that. Spot normally reserved for a Belal Muhammad fight. Yeah, and Belal Muhammad fight,
Starting point is 00:07:20 or just dumb banter as we try and Phil talking about the card. Yes, but so far so good. And main card, a lot of Brazilian favorites on the main card. A lot of Brazilian favorites throughout this one. I do feel like there, I mean, I have never seen a UFC page. Damn, Jack Shore's leg is bleeding, bro. It looks like he got hit by a shark. Yes.
Starting point is 00:07:39 My goodness, man. That is crazy. Wow. There's, like, very little buzz for this pay-per-view. Can you remember of all the watch parties you've done? 289? But I feel like there was still some buzz there because Olivero was fighting Benile Darius,
Starting point is 00:07:58 and that was, like, a high-stakes fight with meaning winners probably getting a title fight. There's, like, none of that. Not enough to carry it. Not enough to carry. That card was getting ripped a little bit like this one. I guess I'm not even seeing people, at this one, though, because there really is just, yeah, not a ton of excitement.
Starting point is 00:08:15 But I've been seeing ESPN promo in it out the wazoo. I mean, anytime I've been watching SportsCenter this week or any other, like, NHL playoffs, they've been promo it. Yeah, you got it. They've been throwing it out there. It's like Pantosia, UFC 301. Oh. Wow.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Go to the dock. Look at this thing, man. This, I don't know if I've ever seen anything quite like. It's like a bit by a frigging snake. going down this dude's leg right now. Like, it is thick red. Oh, my gosh. The doctor is like so ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:08:50 It looks like you got shot in the shin. Dude, you got to stop it. You've got to stop it. Oh, my God, we're going to see it actually happen. They're showing the replay. Let's see it. Dude, he is literally sticking his finger in Jack Shore's leg. It's over.
Starting point is 00:09:09 Joe. Brito wins by gunshot wound from a, Holy cow. Oh my Lord. And the parlay rolls forward? And the parley rolls for it? Sure, yeah, Brazilian favorite parlay. This is the one I was like...
Starting point is 00:09:22 Who's going to cost us now? Who's going to cost us? Come on. Enjoy the triumphs as they come. My worry, Frank, is there is three, like, massive favorites to start out the main card and, like... You see him going to carry it off like that?
Starting point is 00:09:36 There's just one that I worry about. And poor Jack Shore, dude. Oof. Also, my nine-leger has Joe Zeyaldo. on the end of it. Oh, see, I don't have Jose Aorta entered. I have just all the favorites.
Starting point is 00:09:46 That puts it over the time. But I do have a big bet on Joseo, though. Wow, let's see this again. Oh, my gosh. It looks like he was, like, already had a scab there, and it's like he got... We're not seeing the moment
Starting point is 00:10:01 where, like, just breaks open. Oh. Is it a toenail? It literally looks like he got shot in the shin. Horrendous, dude. But was it, like, his big toenail? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:10:14 I don't know if it was like that that tape over his, over his leg. That's wild. That is wild, dude. I'm sure there are people watching this right now that can probably like pinpoint a date in a time where somebody's leg like, I don't remember the last time I saw anything like that. Can you make a throwback to that shark tattoo in his bag? Yeah. How much more relevant it is now?
Starting point is 00:10:38 That was, it's got that blood. That was like really, that was, I've never seen. The fact that the doctor walked in and just, like, stuck his entire finger in it, they teach you that in medical school? They're like, when you see a hole, just... There's a mysterious Frank joining. Oh, yeah, what's up, Frank? What did you think about that?
Starting point is 00:10:58 It's pretty intense. Yeah. Did you ever see forgetting Sarah Marshall? Oh, yeah. Where he got bit by the jellyfish or whatever, and he's like, yeah, I'm okay there. It's just a flesh wound. And then... It just like...
Starting point is 00:11:09 Yeah, he starts because he faints. It was kind of like... like that. Oh my gosh, man. That was crazy. That was, geez. All right, we get, I mean, there's something stuffed in his shin, for sure. Man. I mean, he's hanging in there like a tough man. He's like, yeah, I mean, what can he do, bro? Joannis and Brito gets it done. Have any of the Brazilians last yet? Yeah, two of them. Uh, Silva and Brenner, yeah. Yeah, Brenner. To make the back Oral by who's just... He's a person. He's a problem.
Starting point is 00:11:43 Dude is a problem. He's a problem. Good win for Joe Anderson. This guy's got something. He's fun to watch. Very, very fun. In this loading... Gunshot to the shin, K.O.
Starting point is 00:11:57 A first for our watch party. That was crazy, man. That was truly crazy. See? It's gonna be one of those events. I like... Let's see what Joe Anderson says. Will we have a callout?
Starting point is 00:12:10 I don't know. Who does he call out? Bryce Mitchell. I'm down for that. Joe Anderson. I'm down for that. Call him out. Let's see what he says.
Starting point is 00:12:20 He's very happy, obviously. So thus far, victories from Alessandro Costa. All favorites. All favorites rolling on to the main card. Bishopiel Bond theme. Deona Barbosa, which kind of scared the hell out of me a little bit. Mauricio Huffy, Dracar Close, Biktebeck, Oralbae, Yasmin Lucindo, and Joy Anderson Brito.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Most impressive performance thus far. Maricio Huffy looked fantastic. though it felt like a favorable matchup. He wins exclusively by knockout. Jim Malarke, he's been knocked out five, six times in his career. It felt like the math is there for it. Yasmine Lucendo looked great, though that was the biggest age gap in women's MMA history, they said,
Starting point is 00:13:07 during the fight. Yep. Previous one, by the way, was Roxanne Mottifery versus Macy Barber. Okay, shout out to that one. Great scrap. Great scrap. Yeah, I'm going to go with Huffy.
Starting point is 00:13:21 Though Oral By looked fantastic as well to get a point taken away and win unanimous, 2927. Showed some really solid hands tonight, too. Yeah. So I'll go Oral By and then Huffy behind him. Oral By is going to be a problem. Sure. For a very long time. He's only 26 and he's raw.
Starting point is 00:13:39 But he's like so skilled, but he's just a little green, a little reckless in there. But once he comes, once that guy puts it together, He is going to be fighting. Drennes and Brito going hard, screaming something, and then tries to go out of the wrong exit. Oh, let's see if he had a call out. Not just an excited man. Just an excited man.
Starting point is 00:14:04 We respect that. Good win for Geronis and Brito. Paul Craig getting ready to fight Kyle Bahalio in the main card opener. We got Michelle Pereira looking to get one back for Shogun Hua against the duelist. Ehor Potieri, Anthony Smith, Vitor Petrino, Jonathan Martinez, Jose Aldo, and then the main event, Alexander Pantoja versus little Stevie Erseg. And you got the Brazil going on. I am rocking the Steve Erseg.
Starting point is 00:14:31 Best Buy. Sugarloaf stand face-off polo here. Like, this is what he'll wear to the post fight. Something with some sort of logo, because what he wore to the first face-off? No logo. I was going to say, I don't think he had any logo or anything on the first one. It was just as generic as you could possibly get, which is fitting. for him. I mean, I love it. It's amazing. If he shows up to the Post-Py Presser
Starting point is 00:14:54 with like a Hawaiian shirt and a mustache, fake mustache and sunglasses and a fun hat, Vinnie Sig's will be born right in front of our eyes. Yeah, I feel like I love how he showed up in the blue polo, looked as if it was Best Buy one day, and then he shows up the next day in the Rio soccer jersey
Starting point is 00:15:10 that looks like a foot locker employee. And it's just, it's just great, man. Him being champion would be the most insane thing ever. It would be. Because of how short of a run it took, it took them less than a year, would have taken him four UFC fights.
Starting point is 00:15:27 And you just don't see that with a guy like him. It's usually highly touted prospects, guys with massive personalities. And then there's Steve Versaig, baby. Didn't even call for the title shot. He called for Bradenemoreno. He's ranked the title by before Balab. Before Rob DeMoss. Number 10 ranked Steve Versaig going into Brazil.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Look at him. Look at him. picture. He's a normal-assuming fighter on the roster. He knows it. He's an unassuming looking guy. There's Jonathan Martinez. Jason House in the back.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Chris Gutierrez in the back. Chris Gutierrez and John Lennemortez, a leg-kicking duo. And there's Jose Albaugh. Jose Althe with the Scarface shirt. We're the Scarface tank top earlier this week. I love it. Oh, boy. I feel very good.
Starting point is 00:16:12 There he is. He's Segg, of course. Look at him. You knew he'd be rocking just like the UFC fight kit that they gave him. Comcolle. Backpack. Just like looking chill, Pantosia. Pantoja with a $125 t-shirt.
Starting point is 00:16:26 I love it. I love it. Maybe some chinos there tucked in. I mean, he's looking ready to roll. He's looking ready to roll, man. Comco, cool, collection. Oh, yeah, it looks happy. Main eventing in Brazil, trying to defend his title.
Starting point is 00:16:39 What more can you ask for? I'm actually, like, I understand why this has no buzz. But as someone who is here and is going to sit down and watch these fights, I'm pretty damn excited. I think this is going to be a very fun watch. I think this will be not $2.97. This has no buzz in terms of, like, getting past the hardcore bubble, like, the hardcore fan bubble. Like, my friends are definitely not texting me being like, what are the picks for tonight?
Starting point is 00:17:08 Like, oh, man, like, what fight are we looking forward to most? Like, they were for 300. It's just, like, it's just such a juxtaposition to go from 300 to this. And we knew this was coming because. 98, 99, and 300 were all bangers. Bangers stacked up. We knew, like, there had to be a dip
Starting point is 00:17:28 to, like, get back to super sick cards, and we get right back there. I mean, next card's pretty great. It's pretty damn good. Justin, Paulo-O-Shon Strickland. Five rounds there, too. There's some good fights, and then 303, you got the Mac.
Starting point is 00:17:40 What more can you want? Like, if they did, if this card, if you were doing no-bats barred next week for UFC St. Louis, and this was the lineup for UFC St. Louis. This is a really solid fight night. This is a damn good fight night.
Starting point is 00:17:51 This is a solid fight night. It really is just, it's tough to go from the pay-per-views that we had in February, March, and April to this, yeah. It's just an unfair position to be in, honestly. Jose Aldo is obviously a massive star legend to the game. Like, he has that name recognition, but, like, I just don't know if he's getting the casual fan to sit down. Like, the guy that buys every single pay-per-view, he might be skipping this one.
Starting point is 00:18:16 I think 10% of the every single buyer, is not watching this tonight. They're not watching. I would go to say that it's higher. Really? Okay. Does this do 125,000 buys? I think it has to.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I think that that's like the bare minimum. There really, there hasn't, there has not been much buzz around this at all. There's been zero. They didn't even do a press conference. I don't remember a pay-per-view, at least in the last like three years that had so little buzz.
Starting point is 00:18:46 And I don't even think this is like, from a like, fans perspective, like as somebody who likes watching fights and has to watch them every weekend, there have been worse paper. Like, $2.97 to me was, I looked at that car and was like, the main event could be good, but the rest of this car could be just awful. Like, it was that fight and the Arnold Allen, Mobs are of Loyafelara. I was like, okay, these fights are good, but these other three, this could be a long-ass night.
Starting point is 00:19:10 Well, I was about to say, remember that was a long-ass night. The longest watch party. The second-longest watch party of all time outside of the French. Sanganu, Anthony Joshua one that we did before 299. Yeah, and then obviously now UFC 300. But yeah, I don't know, man. I mean, there's not... Josie Aldo is fighting Jonathan Martinez, who, like, is a great fighter,
Starting point is 00:19:31 but he really is, like, has zero name recognition outside of real, like, UFC MMA weekly fans. And then Steve Urseg, like, my roommate this morning was like... Erseg? Is that how you pronounce it? Steve Erseg? I was just like, yeah, yep. Like, just like, a year ago, none of us know who he was.
Starting point is 00:19:54 He's become the darling of the week, though. Of course, yeah. Amongst fans, yeah, of course. It's, yeah. God, if he gets it done, it'd be absolutely incredible. It will be. It will be. I mean, I see some people being like, I think Steve, I saw a comment on some ESPN NMA post this week that was like, I think Steve Irsa can take the Flyweight Division
Starting point is 00:20:15 to New Heights if he wins this. And I'm like, we think so? This is the guy? I think, like, I'm curious to see. From Massey Arena. Did they change it? I guess they change the name. I'm curious to see, like, where he goes with a win.
Starting point is 00:20:31 Because he's going to go to Perth and be the co-made event in August if he wins the belt. And he's going to get a big pot. He's from Perth. So he's, like, he's not going to be, like, a star. But he's going to be just, like, one of those really truly likable. dudes. I mean, he's blowing up a decent amount. So he came on the MMA hour a few months ago. I remember that. And when he came on, yeah, people were like, why is this guy on? Is that the Disney World one? Yeah, yeah, yeah. We had like no Wi-Fi. Yeah, shitty Wi-Fi.
Starting point is 00:21:03 And we were like, damn, Steve, like, one shot coming on here. Still better than Joachim Buckley's appearance, by the way. Had like 6,000 followers on Instagram. Because, like, I always, like, research these guys before they come on pretty heavy on their socials and I was like well he has got uh like like I was like he has fewer followers than me on Instagram and like he's could potentially be in line for a title soon he is blowing up now though 46,000 I bet if he wins he goes over 100 but like to see a UFC champion like with that small of a following but like he's also new to new to the fans he made his debut less than a year ago I don't which is which is just insane but uh yeah I don't know
Starting point is 00:21:46 It's a UFC pay review. I'm here for it. It's in Brazil. I think the crowd's going to be hype. I think it's going to be fun. It's not going to do a ton of buys. I don't think much content surrounding it is going to do a ton of views. And we're going to have fun.
Starting point is 00:22:00 We're going to enjoy it. We get a championship fight. We get a Jose Aldo fight. Probably the last time we'll ever see him in a UFC octagon for sure. In front of a Rio crowd. And we'll move on with our lives. And we'll head on to St. Louis. Get us some barbecue and look to U.S.
Starting point is 00:22:16 See 302. Back to, I mean, what better way to follow a pay-per-view? We got a Robles... Did a Rodrigo Nassimento made event? No, we got a Robillus
Starting point is 00:22:23 the Spain fight next week. That's what I'm most looking forward to. God, they should have done Alex Pereira versus Robelus on this card. Like, he wants to play
Starting point is 00:22:32 at heavyweight, let's just give him Rebellus. That'd be amazing. That'd be incredible. Be absolutely incredible. All right, so you think Steve Ursek is knocking Alejandar Pantoja out tonight.
Starting point is 00:22:44 I mean, look, I listed to O Bet's bar. You understand the Viti SIG at this point, the gimmick and everything that's come down to. So I just kind of have to go with it at this point. But I do feel like if Vinny wins,
Starting point is 00:22:58 he's not, it has to be by knockout. And I know Pantosha is like the most durable dude in the light of a week guy. He doesn't get knocked out. I get it. But if this fight gets to round three, Pantosia's going to just cruise. Like even if he gets super tired and we saw it in the Roy Val fight,
Starting point is 00:23:13 he just finds ways to get this fight to the floor. Yeah. And one of the things that I found very interesting about the breakdown of this fight is like, well, if Ersai keeps it standing, like he'll win, but if Pantosia gets to the ground, like Ersig has no chance. I don't know if that's necessarily true.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Like, Ersing's actually pretty good on the ground. Yeah, and I don't know if Steve Erseg keeps it standing if he's automatically going to win. Yeah. Like, I think people have a tendency to get fooled a little bit by Pantosja's boxing, especially when it gets in the later rounds, he does get sloppier.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Yeah. And people are like, oh, he's gassed out. but like he beat Roy Val 49-46. Like he looks gassed out. He can still time a takedown better than maybe anybody in the UFC even when he's gassed. And that's what makes him scary. And there's Jose Aldo.
Starting point is 00:23:57 Hall of Fame, inductee, modern wing, 31 and 8. 10-54 local time, there he is. He looks ready to go. He looks ready. I mean, he's got so much more at stake here than Jonathan Martinez. It's not even funny. Going into free agency, like the world could be his oyster.
Starting point is 00:24:14 All he needs to do is win and get a pop. It's got to be huge. By the way, I'm curious to see what the crowd looks like come the end of the night because we had Guillermo Cruz on the People's Pre-Fight Show. There is a free concert in Rio, Madonna. Madonna. Beach. And Guillermo was telling me they're expecting 1.5 million people.
Starting point is 00:24:38 What? It's a free show on the beach in Rio. As this fight card is going on, They're expecting one and a half million people to go to this concert. Madonna is doing a free concert? This is crazy. Like right now. She's doing a free concert right now on the beach in Rio.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Wow. She showed up. What do you think about that, Frank? Let's see. I tried to see Madonna Coachella 2006, and she didn't show off. I mean, Frank is always snacking back there, man. I swear, every time he hops on there, it's just food and his mouth. He's just working through something.
Starting point is 00:25:11 Oh, yeah, um, uh, uh, Kachia. L-O-06. What do you got, Frank? What are you eating? Some carrots. Oh, a nice healthy choice. I was looking for those carrots. Madonna Reel. Let's take a look here, man. Whoa! There's a video. The crowd is crazy. Oh, my God, dude. Dude, the crowd is crazy for this. There might be more than 1.5 million people there. Dude, they are taking up, like, an entire beach. Where even is she performing? I don't know. That's easily two million. Are you looking at the video I'm looking at, Frank? I can't tell if you actually are, but if you look up Madonna Rio right now, it is...
Starting point is 00:25:48 Dude, that's cruel. It is a lot of people there. Wow. So that's happening as this fight card is going on. It's... There's probably a million fights in the crowd, too. They need Madonna to come in to sing, run this town live. Dude.
Starting point is 00:26:05 That's a lot of people. That looks overwhelming. That is so many people. Shout out to Madonna. Shout out to... She may have not showed up for Coachello 6, but she showed up for Rio de Janeiro 2024. All the way they. In a big way.
Starting point is 00:26:21 This is the current law. Just selling out a free gods. Oh my gosh. So it's like people are legit like set up in like I don't even know what to call these. Like just just type in Madonna Rio on Twitter right now. Yeah. And you will see what I'm saying. That's like.
Starting point is 00:26:40 Oh no. Jack Shore. Oh, broken line. Oh, potential broken leg. I thought they were going to change. the outcome for a second. Okay. That's a tough S-S-O-B, man.
Starting point is 00:26:55 So essentially what they're saying is his leg, the bone broke the skin, and that's why he bled that much. That's insane. That's horrifying. Damn, dude. All right, here we go. All right, we got some action.
Starting point is 00:27:10 Caya Wallet-Paul Craig. Blonde Paul Craig. Tremendous media to Instagram, by the way, from Paul Craig, talking about how he had, got drunk and attempted a bunch of backflips, and one of which he landed right on his face, and he predicted that if he knocks out Caio Bahalio,
Starting point is 00:27:27 he's going to land a backflip tonight for the first time in front of people. I genuinely, I mean, I genuinely worry about these three. Now that, like, I have that nine-leg Brazilian favorite parlay plus, like, 2,000-something, and it's still alive onto the main card, and now, like, the three biggest favorites are up, I worry for them.
Starting point is 00:27:50 I worry for them. Because Paul Craig is dangerous no matter what. I understand that, like, Kyle should win this. I think he's got the ground skills to avoid getting subbed. If he shows up, man. You know, should win as well, but there's just, like, is Anthony Smith past his prime? Or, like, is he going to be able to pull something out
Starting point is 00:28:06 and, like, just dog the fight? And then Michel Pereira is the one I'm most confident in. But then on the flip side of that, the dual. He's also, like, the most likely to, like cost himself to fight. He's going to gas himself up, walking to the cage. Let's see. Let's see. Let's see.
Starting point is 00:28:23 I am supporting Brazil big tonight, though. Yep, I bet on all five Brazilians on the main card. Let's sweet, baby. What do you think of blonde Paul Gregg? I think that's scary. He's taken into the culture of Brazil. He's taking in the power of Rio. He said he took it from Charles Oliveira.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Oh, God. He found, yeah, he found it from Charles. wanted some of that impact, I guess. Also, it is kind of like... KB doing the... Shout out KB, bro. Reporting. I know we...
Starting point is 00:28:57 I know 300 had to happen and we had to have all those Brazilians on her. I know Alex Pereira was supposed to headline this card, but man, it really is. Like, they went to Rio and, like, no Charles Olivavera. No Alex Pereira. Like, no Hanato Moikano.
Starting point is 00:29:12 No Hanato Moikano. Yeah, like, all these... We got Kyle. Let's go. Look at those glasses, man. Not even Megan O'Levy made the trip. A little tape in the middle. Those are very Jean-Silva-esque.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Yes, very nice. Even Megan O'Leavy didn't make the trip. Dana White didn't make the trip, it appears. Joe Rogan didn't make the trip. I mean, Joe Rogan wanted to make the trip anyways. I know, but, like, you just got to throw that in there. Yeah. And I'm looking at the crowd right now.
Starting point is 00:29:41 You know, there's a few folks in there. A lot of people at Madonna. A lot of people are Madonna. I think, I'm shocked there's anybody in there. this building right now, considering how many people are at Madonna right now. Bold play. Bold play on UFC to go up
Starting point is 00:29:56 directly against free Madonna concert. It's a, I mean, this is, that just tells you it's like such a throwaway. It's not even funny. Frank, you want to play some trivia, buddy? I live for it. He lives for trivia. Lives for trivia.
Starting point is 00:30:10 Okay, let's get after this. Frank, I will give you the first question. It's a multiple choice question. You ready? Thanks. Alexander Pins. I like when they bring out the test some of the kids get like the answer bank?
Starting point is 00:30:21 Yes. I was never that kid. No open book test for you. No open book test for you. But it was always like a select few kids that got the answer bank. Well, I appreciate that. Alexander Pantosia. You've heard his name.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Pants. Ali Pants. Allie Pants defending his flyweight title. He actually has 11 wins in the flyweight division in the UFC. It actually puts him in second place behind two other fighters who are tied with 13 divisional wins. One obviously is MMA hour guests multiple times, Demetrius Johnson. Who is the other, Frank?
Starting point is 00:30:53 Is it Tim Elliott, Brandon Moreno, or Joseph Benevides? Moreno. Saying Brandon Moreno. What do you say? Correct answer is Joseph Benavides. Joseph Benevides. Shout out to Joey B. All right.
Starting point is 00:31:10 So you now get to go first, Jesse. Jonathan Martinez, who will be competing in the co-made event, nine knockdowns as a UFC fighter. I hit to interrupt here. Am I tripping? Are they taking forever to get Cayo into the cage here? They're checking out the wrap on the ankle here. Do you think they're a little suspicious after joining some brito?
Starting point is 00:31:32 Oh, Paul Craig isn't even waiting. He said, I don't give you shit if you're in the cage, you're not. Blonde Ball Craig walking through. Oh, I hope they meet on the block. Look at him. He's having to like slow. He's having to like slow his wall. incredible stuff.
Starting point is 00:31:47 Oh, to cut off the reps! What is happening? Paul Feltar is confused. This is the worst. This is throwing off everything for Kyle right now. Could you get a better pair of friggin scissors, too? Jesus Christ! This is wild, man.
Starting point is 00:32:15 And now what's Paul Craig doing? Standing there with his hands in his pockets? I hope you're just staring daggers through him. We got to... Where's the camera view? Where's the camera view, right? And they're just putting on another one? What is happening?
Starting point is 00:32:30 What is happening right now? Is there extra tape? And they're just cut off the extra tape? Oh, brother. Oh, give me a freaking break here. This is wild right now. This is riveting that they're showing us the whole thing. What else is they going to show, man?
Starting point is 00:32:46 There's nothing else to show. Dude, run into the freaking octagon. Someone show, I mean, dude, you got to give him his techniques. All right. Paul Craig's just standing there. just like, yeah, yeah,
Starting point is 00:32:59 yeah. All right, there we go. He's locked in, man. Is Paul Craig pound for pound one of the scariest looking fighters?
Starting point is 00:33:08 Like, he just looks like such a serious, scary dude. If you saw both of these guys walking on the street, you would certainly
Starting point is 00:33:15 think Paul Craig is the fighter, and Kyle Braleo is like mathematician. A singing waiter or a dual pianist or something like that.
Starting point is 00:33:24 You see Paul Craig, you cross a, the street. Yeah, you cross the street. Kyle, you're like, hey. No, if I saw Paul Craig on the street, I'd probably be like, oh shit, that's Paul Craig, and walk up and make him. Boy, what if I get a big? Dude, Paul, you got... Fanboy, man. I do fanboy.
Starting point is 00:33:38 I do fan boy. I do fan boy. He's like, please, please. Spend my life covering this sport. Yeah, yeah, no, Paul Craig sees me and crosses the street because he's like, no pictures, please, God. Don't make a meme out of me. Okay, back to the trivia question. Now that...
Starting point is 00:33:52 Yeah, yeah, yeah, please. Strangess has happened. Jonathan Martinez, nine knockdowns in the UFC, tied for fifth most in the history of the Bannamweight Division. Scary. There are four fighters ahead of him on that list. Name one. Name one.
Starting point is 00:34:09 History of the Bannamweight Division. I don't think this is going to be right, but Sean O'Malley. Incorrect. Frank, can you name one? Damn, man. I'm just drawn to blank. Do you know anybody at 135? I don't.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Just name one other 135 fighter. Anybody. Oh, um, Maybe. Sonne Miller. Are you fucking? Uh, all right. Cody Garbrand is one.
Starting point is 00:34:32 Montel Jackson is one. Yes, yes, yes. Peodor Jan. Yep, yeah. Marlon Vera, Frank, you couldn't come up with Cheetos? All these makes sense. It was just teasing. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Just teasing. Up until this second, Frank thought Cheeto Vera was a middleweight. Incredible. Uh, well. Boarding from flight 246 to Toronto is delayed 50 minutes. Oh, what?
Starting point is 00:34:53 What? Sounds like Ojo time. Play Ojo? Great idea. Feel the fun with all the latest slots in live casino games and with no wagering requirements. What you win is yours to keep groovy. Hey, I won! Boarding will begin when passenger fisher is done celebrating.
Starting point is 00:35:12 19 plus Ontario only. Please play responsibly. Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close you, call 18665-3-1-2-60 or visitcomnetonctu.ca. Speaking of middle-aids, let's go to the tail of the tape. Paul Craig, look at scary. with a pain. Paul Craig, interesting stat here, the fourth tallest active middleweight.
Starting point is 00:35:28 That is way too specific. They're just like, they're just pulling in straws with that. They're like, oh, we need a, we need a stat to give out. There you go. 36-year-old Paul Craig, one-inch reach advantage. Kyle Bahalia, 31, 2-inch height advantage.
Starting point is 00:35:42 One-inch reach. Here we go. Here we go, man. That buffer. Buffer with the green jacket. So good. So good. Incredible.
Starting point is 00:35:53 So I really want to make the trip. if they actually do UFC Spain, dream of mine, dream trip of mine. I would just absolutely love to go to that. One of my friends was, like, throwing out earlier. He was like, or what if we just went to Rio for 301, like before the card really got announced? I was like, no, man, I want to do the Spain one.
Starting point is 00:36:12 And I am so glad I stood my ground on that. I was just like, imagine flying all the way down there and being there for this. I'd like to go to Rio. Oh, it would be amazing. I'm not saying it would be a bad time, but I do think the Spain card will be a little bit more staggering. A little bit more juice.
Starting point is 00:36:27 You're making the debut in Spain. Yeah, I really. I'm praying they do that in, like, February. I just wanted them to do it because I will be there. That'd be sick. Kyle Bhalio closing at a minus 600 favorite. Worry's me.
Starting point is 00:36:40 It worries me. We're both on Bajalio money line. Yeah. Worry's me. I got two parlies going with Kyle. And there's angry Paul. He's on a massive win streak. He's very talented.
Starting point is 00:36:51 I think he's got the grappling to deal with Paul Craig. He's an angry man. Paul Craig's just scared. man. Slowly walking towards Kyle. I just don't trust this guy. He's crazy. He also has wins over Magamette on Goliath and Jamal Hill. He beat the hell
Starting point is 00:37:04 out of Jamal Hill. Like he'd almost demoralized Jamal Hill. I mean, I would say snapping his arm in half. It's pretty demoralizing. And there was a lot of trash shock from Jamal Hill as well. What a wholesome tattoo? What's it say? God only knows what I would do without you. It's a Beach Boy song, is it not?
Starting point is 00:37:20 Oh, it is. Yeah. Wholesome Beach Boys. Unbelievable. Who knew? Out of all the songs, Paul Craig could have chose to tattoo on the beach boys. Beach boys. God only knows. All right, here we go. All right, we're going to. Kyle confirming that there will be a knuckle bump before they get going. A little glove touch. But still, it's up in the air. Yeah, there we go. All right. All right. We're on the way.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Paul didn't even blink. 20 minutes, not too bad. Not too bad. Not too shabby. We lost seven minutes due to Kyle Barhalio's walk-up and them cutting off the tape. Can't blame him too much there. A oblique kick from Kyle Bahalio right off the bat. This little body kick by Paul Craig. Paul being very sort of relaxed here. This is very different from Paul. Paul usually just comes out
Starting point is 00:38:02 and starts chucking him, but I have feeling this patience is going to end very, very soon. Blocks the kick. Cahoe charging forward. Oh, he grabs the left. I'm interested to see what Coyo does here. Does he try to take this to the ground?
Starting point is 00:38:19 Does he just stand and strike? Ooh, nice right hand from Kyle. Yeah. I think he's going to probably try to strike, but he's got a really good top control, so he might try to wrestle Paul. Gosh, it's just a dicey affair, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:30 It's a dicey affair, dude. And down there with him is tricky, but he does a really good control. Uh-oh, uh-oh. Uh-oh, Paul grabs him, running him up against the cage. He's trying to bully him. Oh, nice knee to the body. Oh, now he's in. Oh, he's going to take him down.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Oh, he's doing okay. Little hammers. Nice shots. Nice shots. Ambers to the ears, back up to his feet. Still pressed up against the cage there. This is good. This is good for Kyle. I mean, he's not being on the ground with Kyle.
Starting point is 00:38:59 He's not trying to judo throw him. trying to judith drum. Good job. Not being on the ground with Paul Craig is probably the best thing. Oh gosh. Paul tried to pull guard. Oh, okay. So Kyle says, all right. That is telling. That is telling. Not in my country. Let's go. Oh, man. Oh, nice combo like Kyle. Paul's eyes. He's got a different look at his eyes right now at the nomination. I think Kyle. Oh, that's this lazy shot. He's stung right now. It ain't a Paul Craig fight with a couple. Get up. Get up, dude.
Starting point is 00:39:37 Oh. Body kick from Paul. One back from Kyle. Nice body kick from Kyle. Oh, nice right hand. Oh, the right hand is landing right now. Almost halfway through the round here. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Oh, almost kicked in the ding ding. Short left hand from Paul. Kyle just seems like he's just in a kind of. counter mood right now. Another body kick from Paul. Craig goes for a take down. Oh, wow. Now he's got to be guard. And Kyle right back up. And he just said, come on, man. Wow. Yeah, he's, he, he, he, I like this. I like this, man. Oh, another nice ride, man. Another right here from Kyle. I mean, he's just catching these counters with that jab every time,
Starting point is 00:40:28 dude. Paul's got a chin on him at 185. Because he's, I mean, it's just leaving it up in the air. He's just getting cracked. Oh, another one over the top. It's the plower of the blonde hair. It strikes 12 for Kyle, zero for ball. Oh, another one. Make it 13. Goes for another takedown, doesn't get it. Kyle immediately tells him to get back up.
Starting point is 00:40:53 I like that. I like that he's not playing the game where he goes and like leg kicks him. Oh, another big left hand. Yeah. Where he doesn't like leg kick him for like 45 seconds and then they split it up. Yep. And there's the big chance. Wishing bad things to happen to Paul Craig.
Starting point is 00:41:11 What is it? You Will Die? Yep. That's pretty terrifying. Yeah. Ooh, goes to the head cake, blocked by Paul Craig. Just keep punching him, man. But he's just countering over and up. That overhand right is just, it's landed every single time.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Leg kick? Mark Goddard looking very, very closely. Looking posh. Yeah, what do you think of Mark Goddard's stance right here? He's an eagle eye. I love it. Poss is a way to describe it. I like that.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Goddard just made a move for the first time in four. 45 seconds. Body kick from Craig's hands. Anytime Paul Craig throws that kick, it feels like Kyle's going for that overhand right. I think you turn up the aggression a little bit here. Oh, that snap, Paul's head back. Man, that right jab.
Starting point is 00:42:01 It's like a step in, almost like Superman jab. Moving in 30 seconds left in the round. Still scooting in. When moments happen, like they're happening, but they're just, now we're getting few and far between here. All right, I mean, I give this a... Easy 10-9 for. Bhalio round.
Starting point is 00:42:29 Well, we got our whiteboards back. We don't have Frank Hounder. I know. What was the score again? You know what? I take that personally. Good. It was intended personally. Do you guys want to write the score? I would have said nothing personal. 10-9 for Kyle here. I'm gonna go 10-9 for
Starting point is 00:42:48 Kyle Bahalio. Yes. Suck. Trying to play. Yeah. I thought you were gonna go Paul Craig for a second. No. I just know how you could do that. That's tough to score for Craig. Yep.
Starting point is 00:43:03 But Paul's just so gay, man. He's, he got crap. He's a tough SOB, man. I wonder how, like, that's, there's got to be, like, some demoralization to that, too, right? Like, you hit a guy as hard as you can, like, 12 times. And, like, he's just... Oh, that combo was nasty, man.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Bam! Just right there. I mean, his chin is right up in the air, and Kyle just is not... I mean, he's countering. It's effective, but I feel like if he gets a little more aggressive here, I think he can get him out of there. We already got our first Connor McGregor, Michael Chandler, a promo of the night. Actually, the funniest part is, like, that's probably the one card you don't even need a promo.
Starting point is 00:43:48 Yeah, you don't need a promo. Like, the buzz around that is just going to be insane. We're skipping right over 302. We're going right to 3rd. Yeah, yeah. Don't worry about New Jersey, all right? New Jersey will take care of itself. Oh, nice kick.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Those kicks are dangerous, though. Paul Craig, almost catching that one. Oh, Craig coming back. aggressive here. Kyle ducks out of the way of that kick. Yes, that was very, very close. Kyle moving in. Another kick to the body from Paul. Oh, overhand right.
Starting point is 00:44:20 That overhand right doesn't really land. Body kick. All right. A little momentum switch here from Paul. He's coming out here doing the can can. Is that jab? He's doing these kicks. Yeah, another nice right. Ah, I didn't even know. Oh, that was a nice right hand from Paul. Curve, the fragrance of fighters.
Starting point is 00:44:41 I wasn't even aware of that. Oh, shut out. What is that? Cologne? Yeah. Every time he throws this. Oh, man. Snap it back.
Starting point is 00:44:49 Oh, he might be hurt. Oh, those are me. I don't know if I like this. Got him in trouble. Oh, this is. He's hurt. He might just let him up. Yeah, he should.
Starting point is 00:44:57 Well, is this the Charles Olivert treatment? He's stumbled a little bit. He's stung him for sure. Paul looks out to lunch. He looks out to lunch here. A little aggression here. A little aggression, Kyle. Go get him, man.
Starting point is 00:45:09 Don't recover. Ten seconds now. No strikes thrown. Oh, goes for a short elbow. That was dicey. Oh, good luck to that. Yeah. Paul Feller even said.
Starting point is 00:45:21 Yeah, making a great point. Yeah, I mean, you just got to trust the boxing, dude. It's working for you. You're hurting them. You're catching them. He just, like, landed 89% of his punches, probably. Just keep going, man. 26 to 2 on Head Strikes Advantage, Bahalio.
Starting point is 00:45:37 Oh, another left, man. Oh, no nice left. Oh, man. Upper Cup for Paul Craig. almost lands. Oh, nice combo. Oh, another big one. Oh, my goodness, it's out.
Starting point is 00:45:57 Man. Wow. Kyle, Bahalio. Gets it done. She showed off those boxing skills, man. Wow. That was vicious. Paul Craig went out bad, dude.
Starting point is 00:46:10 He knew what's coming. Yeah, but man. There it is. He predicted it. He said, I'm knocking this dude out in the second round. Wow. Mystic Kyle? Call him for the bonus.
Starting point is 00:46:20 All right, just a... One more leg down. Who's gonna cost this? Free spirit. Who's gonna cost this? Free spirit on the throat, man. Took a lot. The man took a lot of damage.
Starting point is 00:46:34 Nice loafers on the dock there by Paul Craig's head. A little blue, dude. I mean, nice loafers, right? I mean, they're nice. The guys on the ground, you know. Guys heard I can't compliment a pair of shoes. Got the boat shoes on. He's about to head to Madonna right now.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Oh, man. Get to the beach. You think that's what all this was? Very smart. Very smart performance from Bahamahia. Very good. Knowing not to go to the ground with him. Trust the boxing.
Starting point is 00:46:58 Okay. What does he do now? Because I got to tell you, I've given Bilal Muhammad a lot of crap for bad callouts, and boy, as he had him. But Kyle Bahalio calling out Drickas du Pusci last time might have trumped every Belal callout. What does he do here?
Starting point is 00:47:15 Does he be smart, or does he do something really? really, really terrible and nonsensical. I'm blowing up the rankings now just to give me a little better idea. Call him. Like, that's a perfect call. Jack Hermanson? I don't think he wants it, but Anthony Hernandez. That's not a bad call on either.
Starting point is 00:47:33 The fact that we lost Anthony Hernandez Roman Deletesiaf 302 makes me sit. That hurt my feelings. Nasserdeen Imovov. I feel like that's the limit of where... Who is potentially fighting Jared Kenanier in Louisville, but it's not official. Brendan Allen? Reaching too high.
Starting point is 00:47:48 I don't hate that callout. I think that's a great fight. Brennan should be getting a bigger fight, but I don't think that's a terrible callout. Who you think is next for Brennan Allen? Marvin Vittori? Votori's the fight I would make. There's some heat there,
Starting point is 00:48:02 and they were supposed to fight before the Chris Curtis fight. Brennan should be deserved slightly better. I say go Nassadineenov. If Niemvost is not fighting Cannon Air, then cool. If Jack or Manson makes sense, I don't hate Brennan Allen. I do not hate that. call out who's you looking for
Starting point is 00:48:20 looking for someone he's looking all around that arena man is looking for daniel corneae are they not going to give him a postway interview good performance from kio oh there's dc okay oh craig shout out always respectful yeah how do you not like paul craig
Starting point is 00:48:44 very likable guy very likable fun as hell good moments you guys tons of respect yeah good stuff good stuff very special from from Paul Craig, the man. All right, let's hear a couple of beverages here. Let's hear what Kyle has to say.
Starting point is 00:49:03 New glasses. Oh, yeah. Different glasses. I swear that was a tribute, because remember when Gene Silva got that knockout last time he put on the glasses that started barking? That's what those looked like.
Starting point is 00:49:19 All right, so he's basically, it seems like he's saying... I called it, nailed it, knocked him out. Son of God. Great teeth on him, man. He called himself Soldier of God. I think Y'O. Romero might have something
Starting point is 00:49:40 to say about that, but. Soldier of got in Portuguese, though, you're all Romero, Spanish speaking. It's true, but there is only one. Who is he going to call out? I'm so curious about this. Don't ruin this. I mean, that would actually probably be the best thing he could do. There's some pop on those punches. 12-pack tops chrome coming up.
Starting point is 00:50:03 So we get, that means we get two autos. Yeah, I got to get this thing open, though. Should open it beforehand. I mean, this... We need to get those scissors that it took to cut... No, no, no, no, no, man. Just let me work through this. You want to put your clothes on? No, no, no, that's a little bit.
Starting point is 00:50:19 It's therapeutic here just to work through it, you know? Oh, man. I think we're about to get it. It feels like we're about to go. There it is. We got it. We got it. Oh, just put the sylophone anywhere.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Yeah. What else? Oh, here we go. DC's putting on some glasses. Not really fitting on his head, fighting nerds. D.C. loving it. No, uh, no translation? All right. We're about to get the question.
Starting point is 00:50:56 Who would you like to fight next? Oh, don't do it. Don't you do it. Oh, no. Calls for the bonus. Okay. I like that. Oh, Jared Kennanier. He called him Jared Kenoneer? I don't mind that.
Starting point is 00:51:28 He dropped an MF. I love it. I love it. Okay. Now, again, let me just, let's reiterate. It has been reported, Nasserdinimov versus Jared Kinnear is going to headline UFC Louisville. I have been told that that is not officially a done deal just yet. So, I don't hate this callout. I think it's a realistic callout.
Starting point is 00:51:51 How many times have we had conversations about the middleweight division and how interesting it is? And then forget about Jared Kennedy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Also, oh, there he is. Ian Machado Gary. Oh, just gone to Josh. Oh, look at this combination. Claudia Gedelia, Jessica And Drash.
Starting point is 00:52:11 There's Amanda Hee boss back there. We're not getting her on. Spive and having a good time, man. Yeah. I bet they got the live stream of Madonna going on. Yes. All right. Any predictions for the autos here?
Starting point is 00:52:25 I don't even know if he's in here. I imagine he's not, but a Steve Ursaig Auto is calling my name. I'm going to need these next week for a little barbecue for St. Louis, you know? Oh, good. Great call. I'm going to say... A couple Ruby Reds. I'm going to say...
Starting point is 00:52:43 A couple Ruby Reds? Yeah. Guys, it's going to happen. It's about to happen. The Law Muhammad Auto is coming. Oh, I'd be so down. I'd be so down. If we get a Ballahmad Otto,
Starting point is 00:52:53 let's put it on eBay while we're live on the air. Let's see what we can get for it. Ball Muhammad, Jess Gondrage. Okay, I like that. I'm on the screen. I like that. I think we're going to get it. Hall of Fame.
Starting point is 00:53:07 Pride Banner, the 2000s. I was going to say, Shogun better be getting this. I wonder if he's there. Bohesio Shogun. If Shogun is there, then Michelle Pereira is. definitely winning. Awesome, man. I love this. God, man.
Starting point is 00:53:31 This guy... What a career he's had. He might, honestly, and I always have to look this up because I never remember the actual year it is. There is a very real chance that Marhicio Shogun Hua
Starting point is 00:53:49 had the greatest year of any fighter of all time in the history of the sport. And that was in I never remember like the... Oh, he's in the building. Let's go. It's on. The revenge for Michel Pereira
Starting point is 00:54:01 against Devor Potoria is coming up next. I love it. Oh, yeah, man. I love it. Let's do it for Shogun, Mishel. Let's do it for Shogun. 2005?
Starting point is 00:54:09 Yeah, 2005. Kadihara, Rampage, Nogera, Overeem, Ricardo, Arona. Five and O. Five and O. Finished all but little, but Nogara,
Starting point is 00:54:25 which was a massive upset at the time. and then him knocking out Arona to win final conflict. Gosh, the highlight real is insane. Probably the best year in the history of this sport. That was the Ricardo Arona knockout, which is one of the most violent knockouts ever. Oh, yeah, there's the rampage. There's a nog fight.
Starting point is 00:54:47 There's the Overeem fight. God, man. Yep. That trophy is sick. Yeah, man. This is a great class, man. This is a great class. This is an amazing promo here.

Starting point is 00:56:11 Amazing. Amazing fight. So good. Amazing fight. There's Anthony Smith. Yep. Good call. This is an amazing promo, man.
Starting point is 00:56:26 I mean, they are selling this. They got some great interviews. Oh, yeah, fuck that. They're showing the Ehor fight. Now it's time for Michel's revenge. I think this is the first, oh no, it's just, yeah, this might be the first fighter we've done a Dan they were good on that got a Hall of Fame nod. Let's go. That got an answer to the Hall of Fame.
Starting point is 00:56:44 Showed out. Looking through Shogun's career was pretty amazing. It's too bad it ended with the duelist knockout. It's all right. It is all right. We're revenging it right now. He gets to see E. We're getting voted on now.
Starting point is 00:57:01 Cool. Look at that, man. He's got the Steve Irseg fit on. I love it. Look at him. Look at a tremendous shape. He's got the beard going. I mean, just got a little Chris Wideman in him right now.
Starting point is 00:57:13 He does look a bit like Chris Wideman, a little gray. Yeah, he's looking great. Some salt pepper going on. Brandon Roy Val behind him right there. There he is, yeah. Reval looking like he's had a couple of burns in the building. I love it. What is that?
Starting point is 00:57:29 There's Pereira. Yeah, Roy Val is. Look at Bruce Buffer coming in with the suit looking great. Alex Pereer in just a vest. That is so gangster. That is sick. What did you say about Royvalier? Well, looks like he's had a few.
Starting point is 00:57:41 He looks like he's sweating, man. Looks like he's had a few beverages before he walked in the building. Smart man. Smart man. I'll be doing the same, fellas in Rio. Yes. Good stuff. Congratulations, Shogun.
Starting point is 00:57:52 Congratulations. Maybe a, maybe a Shogun Otto will pop up. Let's find out. Let's start busting them open. Love this Hall of Fame class. Very, very good. Who old do we have so far? Frankie Edgar.

Starting point is 00:58:26 302. Just engage you? I feel like this isn't even counted as a pay-review, honestly. Speaking of 302. Oh, Costa? Oh! A little hoist-gracy, Ruby Red.
Starting point is 00:58:38 Okay. Little, is this a ruby red or a strawberry blaster, Frankie? Say it again. Oh, Nesceding I mean. Oh, black and white card. Israel out of Sanya. Nice. Something special there.

This is so exciting. This is it right here. Showguns revenge, though. Pityaria with the Diego Lopez-S. character, I love it.
Starting point is 01:00:01 Johnny P., Johnny Parsons. The Bruins just tied it up. Oh, good. I didn't even know they were losing. I told you the Toronto scored. And before you could react. I didn't hear it. Montserrat Conheil, I want to say this is like the 19th of these we've got. And then we're only two tops packs in.
Starting point is 01:00:20 Like we are, we hold all the stake in Montserrat Conheo. If she becomes a champion, another one that we have a million of, the Irene Alexei, the Russian Ronda. If either of these women become champions, we're retiring. Oh, my God. O'Day Osborne, shout out. Whoa, see a little super shimmer. Ricky Simone. See a little super.
Starting point is 01:00:40 Shimmer. Oh, is this another hoist Gracie? Yeah. All right, they like giving us hoist graces. Now there is your eyes on there. A hoistice and super shimmer though. Oh, okay. Oh, Yuri Prahashka. That's a good one. Down a little bit. Yerri Pahashka. I wonder what this, the significance of this is. Whoa. Is this a shininess going on? Is this a blue? Or is this just a silver shimmer? It's an azure. Oh, I think this might be a little baby blue blaster here. The question is, Josh Emmett? Josh Emmett, look at that beard. Good for the bald beard brand. That's out of 199. So we now know that the baby blue blasters are out of 199.
Starting point is 01:01:17 Do you know, like a serial number on the bottom of Josh Emmons name? It's a number of a number. No, no, no, featherweight. No, what's underneath featherweight? Oh, 102 out of one. Oh, that's the numbers. Okay. Thank you, Rick.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Yes. A little baby blue blaster, don't hate that. That's nice. Don't hate that. We're opening up another. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We got 12 back, so we'll do three in between each. fight. This will be the last one. Carius
Starting point is 01:01:40 Overtold, Michel Pereira Ehor Potieri. The chat that will be for the next fight. Yeah, yeah, shout out. All right. Lagoi Evenov. Okay. Okay. Alexander Rockich. Down just a little bit?
Starting point is 01:01:54 Alexa Grasso. Like further away. There we go. There's like nobody in this. Oh, Max Oliver. The BMF champion. Does anybody see that the blueberry shimmer blaster in the back?
Starting point is 01:02:08 I certainly do. I'm fixated on the sneaky silver. The sneaky silver is popping up. Oh, Neil Magni. Neil Magny. You know something good, Scottman. If you see a nail magna. Oh, yeah, black and white, Ketland-Vierre. That'll be worth something something. They call those chrome. Yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa. Is this an auto? No way. No way. Is this an auto? Oh, my God. Be an auto. Be an auto. Be an auto. It's not an auto. Damn it.
Starting point is 01:02:35 It's a total of the tape. Fuck! Tail of the tape! Still excited. No, it isn't. No, it is it. No, it is not. No, it isn't.
Starting point is 01:02:47 It got, ah, the background of the other card. It locked it. Oh, my God. Everything looked like that we were pulling a Connor McGregor Otto there. We're about to go to Sizzler, man. Oh, sizzler. We were going to Friggin' going to Sizzler. We were going to Ruse Crisp.
Starting point is 01:03:02 Ah! Oh, I thought. I thought we just wanted to drop the gold medal. That hurts. That hurts. How disappointing is this friggin' blueberry blaster about to be? This is going to be an unranked women's banter when I guarantee it. I care and fucking see it.
Starting point is 01:03:21 Oh, it's a rookie. Oh, Fernando Padilla! Are you all right? Frank, man, I really thought I was pulling a Connor McGregorado. It was a Fernando Padilla. blueberry blaster. You're kidding me, man. I thought it was baby blue blaster.
Starting point is 01:03:47 Oh, I thought we had it there. Oh, my God, man. That was crazy. All right, we just became the biggest Fernando. We just became the biggest Fernando Padilla fans on Earth. I know. You're a son of a bitch. There was a little bit of confusion.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Yeah, I get it. I get it. It's all right. No, no, no, go ahead and play. I'm going to play. I'm going to play. As Michelle Ferrears slowly, and I mean slowly walking out to the cage right now. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:27 Shout out. For Michelle Ferreira. Shout out to Fernando Padilla. Shout out to Michelle Pereira. The duelist, three years younger, two inches taller. It actually is a two-inch reach advantage over Michelle Pereira, who's going right over to Gilbert Burns. They don't even have Shogun out to watch the fight.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Interesting. What? What? No, he needs to be there. He needs to be in Michelle's corner to see the revenge. It's the only way this works. They probably brought him back to do a scrum. Oh, I'm nervous.
Starting point is 01:04:57 But how could you not have him out there for this? He should be in the corner. Yes, that's what I'm saying. He needs to be there. He needs to, they need to exact the revenge. I'll never look at Fernando Padilla this name. Never. Never.
Starting point is 01:05:10 Never. I feel like you have to bet on him every single time moving forward. What a moment. I hope somebody clips that off. I thought we were. I thought we were. You hit the jackpot. Oh, God.
Starting point is 01:05:28 That was unbelievable. All right, Michelle, come on, baby. Michelle finished here would just be incredible. Beautiful. That would be beautiful. God, it would be incredible. Frank, you ready for the next question, buddy? Let's do it how we transition.
Starting point is 01:05:41 But boy, we're going to try. True or false, this is the longest amount of time between MMA fights and Josealdo's career. We're having a technical issue back here. Can you repeat that, please? This is the longest layoff of Josealdo's career. True. You would be correct. Yeah, I was going to say. 623 days for Josealda between MMA fights.
Starting point is 01:06:07 I'm a little nervous, sir. GZ will go here. Only two fighters in featherweight history hold more divisional wins in the UFC than Jose Aldo. Both are active fighters. Name one of them. Max Holloway. You have done it. That is one. Good job, man. Frank, do you want to take a guess of the other? Just out of curiosity?
Starting point is 01:06:28 Mine was Max Holloway, so... Ah, it's too bad. Cubbs Swanson. I was going to... Oh, clubby-clue? Yeah, you hear one guess was Max Hollow. So it's two to two. It's two to two here. So, Frank, it all comes down to you. If you can get this one correct, you win the game. Which fighter on the main card?
Starting point is 01:06:46 Which fighter on the main card has the most knockout wins in their pro careers? Pants. It's not pants. It's... E.horpottieri. No. Frank, take another guess. It's not Martinez. Damn.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Anthony Smith. G.C. wins. That's a good... Oh, come on. Boom. He was looking at his laptop. I'll do my best Ehorpeotieri. Yeah, why don't you pick another Connor autograph?
Starting point is 01:07:19 How dare you. Touchy. Touchy. 19 is the correct answer for Anthony Smith. He's finished all but two of his wins in his entire career. I think he's 31 of his 33 wins are by finish. Wow. Or 33 of 35, something of that nature, which is incredible. Or 35 of 30. I don't know. But still, it's a lot of finishes. All right, here we go, Michelle.
Starting point is 01:07:43 We're already at Michelle Pere's introduction. It means his walkout was much faster than most. It seemed like he was going to talk to every single fan on the way down. Well, the fans are hyped. They are ready. Fernando Cortella. He took the point from... He might be Mr. No. Dox.
Starting point is 01:08:01 Gierme Cruz reporting, Arena, 100% full. Oh, that Jose Aldo walks gonna hit. 100% full. That Jose Aldo walks gonna hit. The people went out and they said, look, as soon as Madonna plays Isla Bonita, we're getting the hell out of there. We're going to right to the arena. There we go.
Starting point is 01:08:18 doing some work. All right, here we go, Michel. Middleweight Michel. Come on, baby. And the crowd is chanting. Ehor's got the dreads going. He seems like he's talking smack with just the look in his eyes right now. I'm nervous. I'm, yeah. I'm nervous. I'm six legs down on that all-Brazilian parlay. It's just going to go up in flames here soon. I need two more to hit for the parlay is on the screen. I need three more to hit for the big parlay. Oh, Michelle. Can he get him? Oh, what is he doing?
Starting point is 01:08:50 He backflips on him, a knee in the head. Oh, made a big shots. What was the backflip? Now he's jumping. What's he doing? Michelle. Oh, it's tight. It's tight.
Starting point is 01:09:01 Squeeze, Michelle. Squeeze, Michelle. It's just. Michelle. Wow. Oh, my God. What? What?
Starting point is 01:09:12 He let go with a gilly, and he just went flat down on the back of his head. Oh my gosh. Michel Pereira. But he's back up. Michel Pereira at middleweight has fought for like three minutes and has three wins. Fight doesn't go to the decision. It doesn't problem as well.
Starting point is 01:09:28 Let's go. That was wild. Michelle Pereer's walkout took longer than the fight. This man is insane. I can't quit this guy in the middleweight. And that Shogun could not be out there to see it. Oh yes. We did it for Shogun.
Starting point is 01:09:45 The Hall of Favor, baby. The timing of that. It was impeccable. Wow. All right. Let's see the replay. Bam, big left hand hasn't badly hurt. Down he goes. Then watch it goes the freaking back. Wow. That was crazy. Oh, interesting. Oh. Is that against him? That was like a knee to the head. Or shin. But they didn't call it. There's the gilly. He tapped, look at him.
Starting point is 01:10:29 Goes down. Oh, it looked worse. Okay, so that's what they showed. I thought he was, like, completely done. So it wasn't as bad as it looked, but he asked to spit out the mouthpiece, get helped up. Damn. That was, yeah, that was pretty scary. You good, Connor?
Starting point is 01:10:50 Ehor, breathing. Yeah, I'm just, you know, throwing up. There's the tap. Old tweet. Kind of meme ready to go. There's another tap. And there he is. stepping in. You could already see he's out there.
Starting point is 01:11:06 Let's go, Michelle. And then he just falls. Look at him. And then he just goes out. And then he wakes up and he's like going in and out. That was twitching. Man, that was crazy. That was... Shell Pereira, getting it done. There's some handshakes. Do you see he gets a little love? Hi, aye, aye. Michele Pereira, man. An absolute madman.
Starting point is 01:11:33 But guys, you're looking for a... quick finish. Here we go. Louis Nassau. Fucking Rodriguez Nassimento, man. Let's go. Derek Lewis. I don't know if I could take
Starting point is 01:11:44 a Rodriguez Nassimento five-round decision next Saturday. I don't know if I could take it. You said a decision? Oh, they're meeting about this. Oh, no. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 01:12:04 They're going to DQ it. You better freaking not. I think they're going to. I don't think you can DQ. them, though. All right, let's see. Oh, my God. Maybe they know contested it, which, like, I wouldn't completely hate, but
Starting point is 01:12:36 maybe they just give it to them. Oh, my God. No, no, this is freaking crazy. I will officially blame Fernando Padilla. Oh, God. Bruce is still smiling. All right, good. All right, they're giving it to them. Jesus.
Starting point is 01:13:06 I had two bets riding on that. We had a group puddle going on. Cheese. That was, all right. What an emotional last 20 minutes of this program between the Otto and Michelle Pereira. Did he win? Did he not win?
Starting point is 01:13:26 Is it a DQ? Is it not a DQ? Gets it done. So we're trying to figure out the rules. Oh, yeah. Wow. Some of our... The last 15 minutes of this watch party
Starting point is 01:13:38 have just been a roller coaster. Maybe the most emotional it's ever been. I mean, just Connor Otto, we're up here. I mean, Shogun announcement, we're up here. Trivios. Trivia, me beating for access and trivia. I mean, that was that. We think we're about to lose the DQ.
Starting point is 01:13:56 Fernando Padilla happened. Woo! Oh my goodness. What some of the people who have had fights have sort of said that I'm seeing right now is that one of the biggest reasons why this wasn't a DQ or a no contest was because when he backfliped, Ehor kicked him in the air almost. You know what I mean? So it kind of changed the direction.
Starting point is 01:14:20 Why even do that? Why even do that? Because he's Michelle Pereira. He's an absolute maniac. This is a nasty gilly, though. So far, again, so far fun watch. We get two finishes. Oh, yeah, very fun.
Starting point is 01:14:32 Vitor Petrino. This is the scary one for me. Because this close, Vitor wins. It closes out one parley. Oh, yeah, Vitor is terrifying for me. Vitor is terrifying for me. This one scares the hell out of me.
Starting point is 01:14:45 Out of all the pieces, this is the one. Oh my goodness. Good stuff. Chat that's coming up. Throwing one up now. There it is. Yeah, throw it up. Why not?
Starting point is 01:14:59 Let's do it. Itoer Petrito versus Anthony Smith. Now, I would like the chat to be smart, be wise with the decision making here. Just throwing that out there. Holy cow. Yeah, let's do something cool here, chat. Yeah, let's do something cool and fun. I have a feeling there's no chance.
Starting point is 01:15:21 you're picking Anthony Smith. Let's see. Let's see what the chat says. We'll see. All right. Everyone tweeting away here. Wonderboy getting in on this. There's Alan Joban.
Starting point is 01:15:36 Let's see. Everyone calling for the bonus for Mitchell Pereira. M. Mayhew says, I wonder if them being in Brazil, let them just roll with it. Aren't foreign commissions, basically, the UFC. Man? I'm voting Vitor Petrino.
Starting point is 01:15:48 I don't know about how. All right. Let's see Demolador A couple people saying could see NY or CA being sticklers lying hard with my heart but I don't feel good about it

Starting point is 01:17:18 good moments in the history of the sport oh my gosh you're kidding me i'm i'm There are books where you can bet specifically on methods of finish. I'm going to be betting on Dustin Porre by guillotine. It's a complete donation. I mean, it's... It's got to be like plus 10,000, right? Something like that. It has to be.
Starting point is 01:17:39 It has to be. Plus, Sean Strickland versus Paul Acosta. Nizzo Perre is just a madman. I can't think he just did that. He's so frigging fun. man. Sean Strick and Paul cost for five rounds. That is super interesting.
Starting point is 01:18:01 The UFC returns to New Jersey. That the Prue. Get excited. Let's see what the rest of the card looks like. We know we're going to see it. Let's go. Dustin Porre is from Mokachev. Lightweight legends collide.
Starting point is 01:18:19 Dustin Porre, 9-KOs is the Mokachev's 6 emissions. DP 6 significant strikes per minute to Mokachev's 2.46. A Machchev, very good defensively, defended 61% of strikes thrown his way. Machetechakoff 3.17 takedowns per 15 minutes, 90% takedown defense. Porey's got 63. It's going to be an interesting fight. It will be interesting. It's going to be a really tough matchup for Dustin Porier, unfortunately.
Starting point is 01:18:48 But. Yo, the chat has spoken. What did they say? Vitor by knockout. By knockout. You knew it. What did I say before? What did I say before we went on the air?
Starting point is 01:18:58 No disrespect to the chat here. No disrespect to the chat here. Maybe they're right. Maybe they're right. Maybe they are right.

Starting point is 01:23:53 Look at out what shimmer's going on here. Super shimmering shimmer. That's a super shimmer. That's a super shimmer. That is the outside of a bumper car. Yeah, yeah, that's a great call by you, Frank. Wow. Very nice, Frank.
Starting point is 01:24:07 All right, here we go. Another Connor McGregor. Okay. No, not even close to being an auto. No tilistee. Calvin Cater. A little Pedro Munoz. Okay.
Starting point is 01:24:18 Shout out. A little Panny Kianzad. A little Volcanozum here. Okay. This is actually a really special one because it's red in honor of him being from Switzerland. So shout out to that. A little Palo Kostin. Black and white.
Starting point is 01:24:33 Yeah, the Kromer. The Kromer. Hey. And a Dawn Fry. I love that. A little Dawn Fry and then, whoa! Oh, the Iceman! Yo, but this is out of 50.
Starting point is 01:24:42 This is like a little gold special. Wow. The Iceman. Let's go. That's sick. That's sick. Okay. Good poll.
Starting point is 01:24:50 I like that. I like that. Parker Porter, still the pull of the night. We still have an auto to go. Yes. We still have an auto to go. Brennan Allen. Good, good pull.
Starting point is 01:25:00 Aye, yeah, people. Crazy. Vitor, looking good getting off the bus here. Tremendous shape. Tremendous physical condition. looks ready to go. Although his last five with Tyson-Pager, I think everyone sort of expected
Starting point is 01:25:17 to just be fireworks from start to finish. Yeah, it wasn't quite. Didn't quite get that, but it is what it is. Man, if the Bruins lose, I'm gonna... Oh, is it not gonna be happy. It's got in your head. I'm trying, like,
Starting point is 01:25:33 even when the ESPN updates come, I'm trying just not to look. That's just the beauty of the watch party is, like, I don't even think about anything else. Do you get, like, notifications on your phone? typically, but luckily, the Slack channels just go crazy. So whatever has come up gets ignored within seconds. All right.
Starting point is 01:25:52 You know what I'm saying? Frank, how do you feel? My wife has, we used to have the score. We'd be watching a game and even, like, her phone would give us a notification 10 seconds before our streamed in. Oh, that's the worst. That's the worst. That was actually watching the Rangers game at a bar. Oh, the one from the MSG.
Starting point is 01:26:10 And so, like, it's right by MSG and they actually have a horn in the, bar hooked up to the arena so when they score a horn goes off but the bad news is their stream is slower than the horn so you'd be sitting there and it would just be like and they're like slowly bringing the puck up the ice they're just doing it's just like facing off and there's anthony spick just looking grumpy as hell i love it got that mean face on as he should mark One toy in the corner. He's going in. Give his Brandon Roy Val a hug.
Starting point is 01:26:50 Lionheart's got that look at his eye. I mean, is he here to ruin our day? This one scares the shit out of me. I can't lie. If he, if Petrino does not win, that's going to hurt. Yeah. That's going to hurt, man. It really will.
Starting point is 01:27:11 It hurts two, it kills two parlays. Is that a 300 tattoo? Yeah, UFC 3. 300 tattoo? Like no joke. Might be. No, look at its left arm. It's sideways. Yeah, you're absolutely right. Oh my gosh. Oh, yeah. So I'll take the apology whenever you're ready to...
Starting point is 01:27:33 What, dude? I mean, I don't think any of us were like, Frank, you're an idiot, you're wrong. I mean, did you hear the, you know, the way he said that. Even if I did say that I wouldn't apologize. Well, at first I thought you were, like, it was the movie. So I was like looking for that. This is a tattoo. I get it. But yeah, you nailed it.
Starting point is 01:27:52 But he could also get a fine. 400 tattoo right now and like just be prepared. Yeah, I wonder what the 400 logo is going to look like. Probably a variation of the 300. I wonder what the tail of the tape is going to look like. Hey, there it is. The chat bet fight of the night at UFC 301. The world is watching.
Starting point is 01:28:11 Here we go. Anthony Smith, obviously, much more experience. 57th professional bout taking on Vitor Petrito, who is nine years younger. Two inches shorter, but does have an inch and a half of reach over the one-time UFC title challenger, Anthony Lionheart Smith, who is staring absolute daggers into Vitor-Pretto-Pretto-Vitur is like, yeah, man, stare away. All right, so this graphic says I have no bets to this card, this fight, but I didn't expect the Brazilian favorites Barlet to make it this far. Yep. Seven or nine legs down. Still alive.
Starting point is 01:28:54 So, yeah, I do have Vitor Petrino here. Yeah. I get Vitor. Bit worried. Close one parlay and then to be one away. Yeah, this is the one. So earlier on the chat, I picked Anthony. Just saying.
Starting point is 01:29:09 The chat bet. You picked Anthony? You voted for it. All right. I feel better about the Vitor pick. I can't lie. Give me a like 1% extra comment. confidence. Look at that. Look at that mouthpiece.
Starting point is 01:29:22 He looks good. He looks confident. I love the attitude. I'm nervous. I'm nervous. I'm nervous. Don't be too overconfident Vitor. That's, I don't want to see that. Is that an IFC tattoo? No. I mean, I'm not here to doubt you, Frank. The tattoo sniper.
Starting point is 01:29:44 Yeah. Frank Lunds. That 300 call was was incredible. Can't believe you got that tattooed. I mean, hopefully he just used a marker. I would just love to know the reasoning behind it. I do too. And the IFC. Like, what is that the channel?
Starting point is 01:30:02 Was it to support Dana White? Make sure he didn't get on any sort of hit piece video. It was funny hearing like Anthony Smith react to that because he thought he would be in the, he thought he was going to be in the video of Dana, like, putting up all the clips. Yeah, yeah, they did Hawaii in New York, Rick. Of course.
Starting point is 01:30:17 I mean, I was just, I was. Of course they took it out of context. Ah, Frank. I was out here, always supporting the card, Osiris. I was always supporting old 300, man. What do you think of Osiris, Maya? Is this your first time seeing?
Starting point is 01:30:29 You know what? It is my first time seeing him. Oh, so we have to get an in-depth breakdown at the end of the fight about how he does. Here we go. Yes, hello. And away we go. All right.
Starting point is 01:30:44 We got, Anthony Smith did not want to do the glove touch, but he did it. reluctantly touched gloves and the chance have been chance are very loud Vitor looks gigantic I was gonna say man
Starting point is 01:31:00 Vitor Petrino it looks good getting off the bus looks like he's a fighter dude he is muscular Kasa's like there's confidence to Vitor which I dig but I don't want him to
Starting point is 01:31:17 he looks a little too overconfident right now but it worries me man against yeah I guess stuff just keep it on the Nice leg kick from Anthony. Oh, good right hand from Anthony. Wouldn't mind seeing some leg kicks from Vitor here. I mean, they're just wide open.
Starting point is 01:31:45 Anthony's being very defensive. I know very high guard where Vitor Petrino's got just his hands just right at the waist. He feels confident in that. Oh, did he sting him a little bit? There's a leg kick. See, that's smart right there. Oh, man, he loaded up. Nothing doing, though.
Starting point is 01:32:06 Smith comes up short on a combination. Leg kicks are right there for Vitor. I don't know why he's throwing him. Nice leg kick from Anthony. He's got to give him back, though. He's got us back against the fence. Oh, nice body combo. Now he tries to mix in a takedown.
Starting point is 01:32:31 Anthony picks him up and throws him down. Oh, no. Oh, that is tight. Do it, Anthony. That is very tight. He's tapping. Oh, my God. What a.
Starting point is 01:32:43 fucking idiot. Oh, that hurts. Wow. We knew the Brazilian favorite parlay wasn't going to hit. I mean, let's be honest with ourselves. We knew it wasn't going to hit. Aye, aye, aye, aye. Petrino, you bum.
Starting point is 01:33:01 Oh, my God. What are you doing? Like, that was just maybe the most horrific game plan I've ever seen. What are you doing? What the hell is, what are you doing? Oh, my God. All you had to do is punch. That's all you had to do.
Starting point is 01:33:20 Oh, my God. What did I say, man? This is the one. One of those three. I knew this is the one. One of those three was going to cost it. As soon as I saw this, I'm like, well, this fights over. Great job.
Starting point is 01:33:32 Shout out to Anthony Smith. I mean, I'm a little sour right now because that just killed two parlays right there. No, I mean, shout out to Anthony Smith. That was a great performance. This is what my experience matters. Just awful fight IQ. Oh, man. That was like Jamal Hill
Starting point is 01:33:52 Pereira-esque fight IQ right there. What are you doing? Like, I still can't believe Betty tried to do that. Wow. Shout out to Anthony, man. I mean, damn. I mean, yeah, shout out to him.
Starting point is 01:34:07 What, Frank? I just was happy with that. Yeah, yeah, good call, Frank. I love it. I love his shade. You nailed it, Frank. You're much smart. smarter than we are.
Starting point is 01:34:21 Ah! I started having too much hope, it had to die. I was seven to nine legs down on that. What a dink. Seven of nine legs down. Oh, 30 to win a thousand. And now Joe Zelle's gonna just wipe the floor at John the Martinez, and it's gonna like,
Starting point is 01:34:36 that's cool with me. That's cool with me. Oh, it would be nice. No, that's cool with me. But that, like, ruins, like, almost a perfect night with awful fight IQ. I mean, just the worst. This is why I originally had no bet on the fight.
Starting point is 01:34:50 Yeah, I hate that I added this one. A lot of people were trying to sell me on a straight bet on Anthony Smith, so shout out to them, man. That was a great call about him. Let's go, Anthony Smith. Back in the wind calm. Hands Victor Petrino's first loss, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:06 Good job, Anthony. Give him a title shot. Give him Alex Pereira. Call him out. Let's go. Oh, Buffett! The Buffett! The Buffet!
Starting point is 01:35:17 I even can't believe it. Offer makes a mistake, man. A buff man called for Vitor Petrino. Oh, that was crazy. Petrino being very classy in defeat, man. Yeah? I love it. I mean, what can he say?
Starting point is 01:35:34 He called, hey. Big Vitor Petrino fan. Levels. Yep. All right, he dropped the level one. He dropped the level one. Good for him. I mean, well, you know, good, good for him. I'm so salty.
Starting point is 01:36:00 I'll never bet on Vitor Petrino ever again, ever. Oh, yeah. Ever, ever. No, no, no, no, no, no chance. Frank, how did the referee do for his first time? He did a really good job. He did miss the first tap, though, by like 11 seconds. You got to tap a few times.
Starting point is 01:36:18 Like, second time. Oh, Vitor, what are you doing, man? Just the worst. Just the worst. What are you doing? You know what I'm going to do? My biggest disadvantage in this fight is the grappling. So I'm just going to go ahead and do that.
Starting point is 01:36:34 I'm gonna go right into his game plan, jump right into his guillotine, which he's been calling for weeks. Oh, man. Thumping him up on the feet. Oh, my lord. Crazy. Great call by anyone who vets Anthony Smith out of me.
Starting point is 01:36:49 Shout out to Anthony Smith, man, back at the wind cone. Yeah, I mean, if you were straight buttoned this, if you didn't bet Anthony Smith, so he liked kicks. Does he call it Alex Pereer, who's sitting in the crowd the vest on? He should. He will.
Starting point is 01:37:06 He won't get that. He's not going to get an Alex Prairie fight. I mean... Magamanao Live. Yuri Pro Hoshka. Glow around tree. I'm saying those three are ahead of, in my opinion. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 01:37:30 I like that. Oh. He ain't old. All the haters out there? Maybe I'm not so F and old. I love it. No call out. D.C. didn't even give him the chance.
Starting point is 01:37:49 Hey, good win. Nicely done. Now we can watch Josie Alde. though and had some pressure, but not the weight of the world on the shoulders for the big parley. Hey, Gilbert Burns. There's a man to Hebas getting some shine.
Starting point is 01:38:11 Hey, Charles Oliver. A bit of a lot of him. Oh, shit, it sounds like Joe's going crazy. Please tell me. The Boston Bruins are moving on. Game 7 win. Let's go. Pasta squirt. Of course.
Starting point is 01:38:33 Pasta. Davey Pasta. Pastanak. Let's go. Shout out. What if John Anak knows what's going on right now. I wonder if you just got it in a year. You didn't hear a pause right there? Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:38:47 And Atta Moycano getting ready to grapple. I love it. Against Christian Guzman. Oh, let's go. There's the King of Rio. Jose. Jose. Jose. Jose.
Starting point is 01:38:57 I'm super curious what Jonathan Martinez's game plan is going to be in this fight. Very, very curious. I'm very curious as to how Joseo is going to look here. I just don't know. I just, the amount of confidence people have had in Jonathan Martinez this week, good fighter, but just a lot of confidence in this. I mean, I think a lot of it has to do
Starting point is 01:39:18 with the situation surrounding Jose Aude Otto's return. Like, he's been out for, like he was retired. True. Looks good, made the weight, sad fights, boxing fights. I just feel like, unless Jose is just completely over the hill. Yeah. He can't really lose this fight. But who knows?
Starting point is 01:39:46 I'm the absolute A-hole who just bet on Vitor Petrino. That's all right. What the hell do I know, people? I mean, it's all good. I don't even care anymore because the Bruins just beat Toronto, and I feel bad for your butt. I really truly do. I mean, Anthony Smith, shout out.
Starting point is 01:40:04 Fraud checking, is that the term we're going to use there? I'm going to go ahead and go with that. I'm going to go ahead and go with that. that for this one. It's not a term I use that often, but yeah, think, uh, careful what you wish for, pal. You just might get it. Uh, yeah. I mean, vet lesson, as they said. A vet lesson. But now maybe Jose Otto does the, uh, does the same here on old Jonathan Martinez? I mean, I think it's very possible. I think it's very possible. A lot of people pose in front of the big UFC banner. Should we help some more packs before the king? Let's do it. I'm out of, uh,
Starting point is 01:40:38 I'm out of gloves, though, so... Oh, no. That whole box is empty? The whole box is empty, brother. We can run some more, too. No way. Could you actually? It's a live show.
Starting point is 01:40:50 The magic live TV. Let's do it. All right. Oh, it looks like a refresh out. We're getting right. Yeah, I'm about to say, there's no way you'll have just gloves sitting back there. You want to run some in more. Checking the old stock room and it's just got an empty shelf.
Starting point is 01:41:06 I mean, I'm just sitting here. I'm just like, there's just no way. There's a note there. Sorry, guys. No gloves. He has gloves. Latex loves sitting back there. All right, Dusko Todorovich. Let's see what else. Ah, Dan Ige.
Starting point is 01:41:20 Dan Iigay, shout out. Carlson Harris. Okay. A little v. We're about to get a beat, or patrino. Ooh, Shara Bullet. Our bullet.
Starting point is 01:41:33 Little Mattias Nicolaugh-Kromoom. Okay. Ooh. What is this? An old school one. Oh. Elio Machita. Nice.
Starting point is 01:41:44 And then a... No way. No, it's not. No, I don't. We knew better than to get too high. We knew better than like... No. Just seeing the white there, I mean, that really looked...
Starting point is 01:41:56 Yeah. Looked promising. It looked promising. International flair. International flair. All it was. The pacing of this card is fantastic. We're already promoing Jose Aldo
Starting point is 01:42:08 versus John Ortiz. It's amazing. Keep it rolling. I wonder who's going to walk first. Jonathan's rank. Jose's not. All right, what do you think? Autograph comes here or later.
Starting point is 01:42:20 Not this one, but the next one. All right. Brendan Allen? Okay. Ooh, yes. As I taught. This feels thick. This feels like there might be an auto in here.
Starting point is 01:42:32 McKenzie Dern? Yes. Whoa. We got blueberry. Biggie Smalls. Purple Power, Davison Figurado. Nice. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:42:41 Steppe Miochish. There's a lot of sparkle going on. A little steeping. Back-to-back stepeys? Wow. Amanda Nunez. Okay. And then.
Starting point is 01:42:59 Is this a tale of the tape or is this an autograph? Kaigar Rads. It is a tail of the tape. Okay. We got fooled there. We got fooled there. All right. Is this the auto or does it come
Starting point is 01:43:11 before the main event. I think it's coming here. All right, here we go. Although the drama with ripping these packs tonight has been off the charts. Okay. Oh, my guy,
Starting point is 01:43:25 Jelton. Let's go. A little Vanessa Dimopoulos. A little Sean Strickland. Jamal Emmer's. Solid fighter. Superman? Ryan Span.
Starting point is 01:43:44 Whoa. Michael Kiesa. The Tale of the tape for Henry Sehudo and a Nigerian nightmare. Oh, the auto. Oh. So we will get the auto before the main event. The auto awaits. Compelling must-see television.
Starting point is 01:43:59 Who's it going to be? Frank, who's going to be the auto? Good old Connor. Connor McGregor? Yeah. I mean, I can't doubt you anymore, man. I think not. It's just another.
Starting point is 01:44:12 I love it. Frank's been right about everything tonight. Are you all right? Speaking of Frank's, Frank on Twitter says our investment in our bets overrides the appreciation for the fight. Shout out to Oink Oink-Oink-007. Yes.
Starting point is 01:44:32 Fair. We had a lot riding on old Vitor Bertrino there. I mean, come up. You know, we apologize. Yeah, let's have a little fun. We were looking for a little 30 into a thousand-dollar cashier there, but, uh, you know, I guess I wasn't going to be jumping up and down for Anthony Smith. I mean, dude, even if I had zero dollars on that, my reaction to the game planning
Starting point is 01:44:55 and the fight IQ would have been exactly the same. If I didn't have 30 to win a thousand, I probably would have gone a little bit crazy, I will say. I'll get, I'll give Voico and no, good win for Anthony Smith. I mean, I'm happy for him, but. All right, it's time, though, Jose Alto is about to make his walk. I mean, Mark Montoya right back out there. Would Jose Alto technically be the, the blue corner here? should be, but I guess that... There's no way they're going to have him walk first. Yeah, I guess at ceremonials yesterday,
Starting point is 01:45:23 they had Jose as the red corner. This is no way, yeah. There he comes. Jonathan Martinez, the silence behind the violence. Fun fighter, getting booed out of the building as expected. Yeah, of course. This is... I mean, it's King of Rio, man.
Starting point is 01:45:44 Yeah, there's no way. He's trying to block it all out. There he is. Do you think he won the Saeed fight? When I scored it live, I thought, I thought, I thought, Said, I'm out of one. But it was very close. It wasn't a robbery, yeah. It was very close.
Starting point is 01:46:09 Definitely not a robbery. What's John Jones tweeting about tonight? Anyone who he can fight that isn't named. He's probably like, should I do the Anthony Smith rematch? I have a date. I'll let the boss man, Dana, announce that. What? What?
Starting point is 01:46:35 John's got a fight? As of right now, it's just a verbal agreement. So verbal agreements are in place for John Jones' next fight at a year. Is it July 27th? I don't know. That'd be freaking sick, dude. July 27th, the Manchester against Todd Thomas.
Starting point is 01:46:50 Dude, that'd be unbelievable. That'd be an incredible main event. And then Balmohama Hamid still somehow doesn't get a title fight because, I mean, although I think Leon would be happy co-manning for a John Jones card. How would you rate Jonathan Martinez from an armchair psychologist position.
Starting point is 01:47:14 Do you look nervous? Does it look ready? I don't do the armchair psychology. Do you have any concern if you had money on them right now? No. I don't do any of that. Fair enough. Don't do the scales.
Starting point is 01:47:25 Don't do. I don't do any of that. Yeah. You just have no idea what's going on. I mean, you could look as confident as ever and have just been like shaking in the back. Who knows? Who knows?
Starting point is 01:47:37 I think he looks great. I think he looks ready to go. The real question is, How's the next fight you're going to look? How is Jose Al about to look? Oh, dude, he's about... He's gonna look... Dim the lights, baby.
Starting point is 01:47:49 Dim the lights. Oh, let's hear it. We know what's coming. Come on. There's green lights. What? We're remixing, are we? Because we are the champions.
Starting point is 01:48:14 We're not hearing... We are the champions. All right, we're remixing. There's no doubt about it. He's going to walk. That's what we're starting with. the champions, huh? I hope they let him gimmick up this a little bit.
Starting point is 01:48:33 Let him put a crown on his head. Scepter. There it is. There it is. Oh, there it is. He does it. Yeah. King of Rio, baby. Let's go. I actually wish he had just gone with the straight straight in to run this time.
Starting point is 01:48:54 Jose knows what he's doing. I mean, the crown looks great. The crown looks great. He had us both talking. I love it. I mean, he did. I was, yeah, I guess he know he fooled the people like what is he doing did not think we were ever going to see this again this is pretty cool I mean this is this is I feel confident this is the last time we'll ever see it last fight on his contract
Starting point is 01:49:15 a one-off to save the Rio card I mean we were kind of saying how there's been no buzz about this imagine if he wasn't fighting on it oh my god I think they'd have to fight night this car I mean my opinion is they they backed up the Brinks truck and they were just like someone just shut the jersey of Joe Jose. Is he holding it? Yeah, he car. He sure is. Or is it a flag? Flag. Okay? Let's go.
Starting point is 01:49:46 BJ Patton tweeting out. Jose just wanted to skip right over the steak box there, the prep box. There come all the tweets coming in. Here's the thing, though. Do you have COs Jose Al, though, a title fight? He ain't scared. He shouldn't skip Mara, but they owe him a title fight. They screwed him out of... chucking him in there with Moro. I think if he wins, he's just going to retire. Retire? Yeah. I don't think he's going to retire.
Starting point is 01:50:34 This is probably his last fight in the UFC. Oh, oh, oh. You're saying he'll fight again. Oh, I'm just saying he's done with the UFC. Right. He's leaving the door open, though. I'm telling you, Sean O'Malley is to be ready for Joseo. Garrette-Targo. If Josie O'Do goes out there and just starts with Jonathan Martinez, John O'Malley's got a tweet ready. It's in drafts ready to go. You think so? Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:51:04 Hell yeah. It's a bigger fight. I haven't been thinking at all about like a title shot being on the line here for... It shouldn't be. I don't view it like that. I view like... The way that I see it is if he wins, this is his like farewell to the UFC. Thanks for having me.
Starting point is 01:51:22 It should be. I feel like that's what it's going to be. I'm paying this dude all the monies. get this guy on the roster. If I'm BKFC, I'm throwing a big bag of money at him. I mean, he did already retire once. Yeah. But then he boxed and he still doing his thing.
Starting point is 01:51:40 Yeah, yeah. I just feel like this is a little comeback. Rio, big bag of money for him. Now he can be like a legit free agent. Also get a win and like you're like a hero in front of the crowd. Yeah. Let's go to the tail of the tape. All right, let's see it.
Starting point is 01:51:55 This co-main event. My opinion, one of the five greatest fighters of all time. Joseoaldo back inside the octagon. 37 years old. 37 years young. Young, exactly. They got a flip. 40th pro fight.
Starting point is 01:52:10 Jonathan Martinez fight number 24. Jonathan Martinez is seven years younger, an inch taller. Joseal just got the reach advantage by a half inch. It's incredible seeing Joseoaldo as a bantam weight when he was having so much trouble making weight as a feather weight. It's wild. to see but here we are. It is wild. And there's...
Starting point is 01:52:30 They're both on the violence. Josealdo. From Plainview, Texas. It's a bad, bad dude, though, Jonathan Martinez. Oh, he's sick. Oh, yeah. The leg kicks are nasty. Born to be a fighter.
Starting point is 01:52:44 How many say... Would you say nine drops in the... Nine knockdowns? Nine knockdowns? Nine knockdowns. Two leg kick finishes. Look at Chauza. Let's go.
Starting point is 01:52:57 This place is going to go friggin bananas. If he goes out there just starches Jonathan Martinez, this place is going to lose their minds. They will not even care what happens in the Pantoja fight. They got the crowd just over the arena. The pharmacy arena,
Starting point is 01:53:16 which must have just got named that today. I said Farnasi earlier, and now pharmacy seems like that's probably the correct thing. Oh, man. Two and two together. With the new prime flavor watermelon banana. Watermelon banana? I think that's what it says.
Starting point is 01:53:38 No, no, no, no, no. Strawberry banana? That's been out for a little bit. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We got some back there if you want one. No, watermelon banana would be wild. Incredible. You think so?
Starting point is 01:53:49 You think so. That's strawberry banana. I'm more. That has to be. You think watermelon banana would be good? Dude, I would try it. I mean, I'd try it, of course. It can be bad.
Starting point is 01:53:59 All right, we're all right. We got the glove touch. We're ready to go. Joseo Aldo, Jonathan Martitez. King of Rio sounds behind the violence. It's time. Blue red, blue red. I kind of like it.
Starting point is 01:54:09 Red shorts, blue tape. Jonathan's self-pawing it up. Red tape. The reciprocals. Yeah. Jonathan with a kick, trying a combination here. Although looks so calm right now.
Starting point is 01:54:27 Starts the kicks going for Martinez. Yep. Just getting them going. Nice combo. A good combination. He dig right to the body. I was going to start checking these light kicks He just did
Starting point is 01:54:40 He just checked that one I feel like something big's about to happen This is very tense This is the most tense It's been all night for sure Oh, good punch to the body Right to the rib Oh nice light kick
Starting point is 01:55:05 You check that one though See Aldo check that second one? Yeah, he just whips those things out though, dude He goes quick Surprise Aldo hasn't thrown any yet A little double jab from Aldo there Tina's trying to jab Come up a little short
Starting point is 01:55:25 All those getting ready to check those leg kicks. Although coming in, looking for an opening, Johnson's... Ooh. Oh, I was throwing pistons right now. Yeah, I like that much he's moving forward. Yeah. Oh, Jonathan Martinez looked like he was going to try to attempt a takedown there. Shuffed off by Ado, I mean.
Starting point is 01:55:51 Alito, not easy to take down. No. Giant sample size, like 94%. Oh, a little slip by Martinez there. Yep. Ooh. Nice combination. All those getting closer.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Crowds getting rowdy, man. This is the loudest they've been on 90s. Oh, there's a leg kick from Aldo. Right back from Martinez. These dudes are fast. I don't care if Joe Zaldos, 37 years old. He is quick, man. We got all sorts of chance right now.
Starting point is 01:56:21 Think Aldo doesn't join this fight more than his last one? Yeah. This is a much better style. Oh, good combination. That left hand found the mark. Kicks the body, comes up short. Martinez short with the jab. Body kick just kind of flicked out.
Starting point is 01:56:51 there from, oh, ripped to the body from Bada. Ola's just trying to figure this all out. Oh, good left hand from Mald over the top. Oh, nice body kick to the body from Martinez. That was nice. Here's the crowd, and now he's going on it. Oh, Montoya's telling Martitas to pace. It's a lot to take in for this young man.
Starting point is 01:57:30 Yeah, I mean, I think seven of his last eight fights have been at the apex. The one that wasn't was the Piotrion, Roddo Lachfili at the smaller arena in Las Vegas. Oh, what a right hand from Aldo. Wow. Oh, nice right hand by Martinez. A little jab out there. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:57:47 That was the best shot of the fight right there from Aldo. Although starting to figure out Jonathan a little bit here. Oh, nice combo. Wow. Gope up a knee. Jonathan going to the body there, but Aldo kind of blocked that with his elbow. Crowd is just singing.
Starting point is 01:58:13 Crowd is going wild, man. I love this. This is fun. It's an Aldo chat. Aldo. Amazing, bro. Nice. Good leg kick.
Starting point is 01:58:25 Stan Switch from Martinez there. Live odds are even. Just so amazing watching Aldo like kind of put it together. Twitchy, man. Twitchy out here. Martina is going south pole now. Another leg kick from Aldo. Final three seconds.
Starting point is 01:58:54 Bleak kick. Oh, big, so you're going to miss for Martinez. Oh, man. That's an Aldo round for me. I'll go Aldo as well. Momentum shifted in that one. There you go. 10-9 Aldo.
Starting point is 01:59:09 Bam. Sick. Wow, you got those up quick, Frankie. Yeah, the graphics is really wanted to do. Yeah, graphics is something sick. Frank's never wrong, so he could just put them up. He probably knows how we're going to score the second round. Already, go ahead, Frankie.
Starting point is 01:59:21 Damn right. Mr. Prediction. See how Martinez can battle back. Antoy is telling him pick up the pace. Inside left kick is there all day. Chris Gutierrez saying, look, you got him, lighting. Oh man, they're yelling to Martinez. They need to win this round.
Starting point is 01:59:57 Yeah, I think it's 10-9. I think Jose Aldo wants Jonathan Martinez to put on the pace and get a little more aggressive. I think that's what he's waiting for. I'm actually surprised how slow Martinez like kind of ended that first round. I thought he's got to throw a lot more. All right, here we go.
Starting point is 02:00:21 Dean Thomas. Probably right. Martinez has hero worship going on. Another light kick from Aldo. Martinez, trying going up top. I like these shots of the body by Ozale. Ryan Frederick. Do we get him? Let's go.
Starting point is 02:00:50 Let's see. Ah, Shaheen. Shotties. Go. Nice, yeah. Nice. I mean, you got to close it with Shaheen. You can't go to Ryan Frederick now.
Starting point is 02:01:00 Good rip to the body. Oh, nice knee from Aldo. That was a nice little crafty short left hand to the ear of Jonathan Martinez. Oh, goes for a takedown. Takedown. In on a leg? I don't love this from Jonathan Martinez for being honest.
Starting point is 02:01:19 Daniel Cormier says flat statement. He's not taking Jose Al-Lola. He's not. Joseph is like, all right, I'll do this all day. 92% take down defense. It's crazy. Over an insane level. I mean, I think Maraub went 0 for 17 or something.
Starting point is 02:01:41 Yeah, I think, yeah, something like that. But this is how Mara beat him. He just held them against the fence. And, like, that's literally what the round was. I'm wondering. Frank, if you're Mike Beltrata, Are you separating these guys or you're making them work a little bit longer? Let them work a little bit.
Starting point is 02:01:59 Okay. How much longer, though? Ten seconds. I'm wondering if Joseo's... If Mike Beltran separates us in ten seconds, I'm going home. It's a long trip, man. I know. You've just been spot on.
Starting point is 02:02:13 I think we've surpassed it. Yeah, they're going to separate it. I mean, he's not doing... There's literally nothing happening. Come on, Mike. Mike, separate him, man. I said ten. Ten minutes?
Starting point is 02:02:29 Yeah, there we go. There's Mike. All right. There's a delay on our phone. Come on Jose. Oh, that was nasty. Oh, nice combo from Martinez. Really nice.
Starting point is 02:02:48 Oh, nice combo from Aldo. Oh, these guys just go out and throws a head kick. Woo. They were trading that. That was kind of crazy. Oh, great combo from Aldo. Oh, I forgot to see upercut. Fairly misses.
Starting point is 02:03:05 This is high energy right now. This is getting crazy. These combos are a little. looking beautiful for Aldo right now. Oh, nice leg kick. Oh, good jab from Aldo. Nice jab. Martinez switching stances.
Starting point is 02:03:22 This is fun. Good rip to the body again from Jose. The Aldo chance back a lot. Barely misses him. Big left hook. Nice jab from Aldo. Aldo defensively is just incredible. Aldo, nice jab.
Starting point is 02:03:52 Just Jonathan just can't touch him right now Another leg kick Beautiful Oh great combo All you hear honestly is the crowd And Mark Montoya screaming Oh Oh another body shot
Starting point is 02:04:19 Man oh misses with a knee Oh snapped Joe's his head back there Oh spinning back fist barely misses for Martinez He got Aldo to smile a little bit Yeah Martinez is pushing forward a lot now Up against the cage.
Starting point is 02:04:44 Aldo circling. Seconds. Ain't like he was going to do another spinning back. Make a big light kicks coming from Maldo. Here it comes. No, it's not throwing it. Okay. Interesting.
Starting point is 02:04:56 Nothing really doing here the last. Especially with Martinez moving forward so much. I'm surprised. Nice little straight right from Maldo there. A little light kick could be coming here. It's there. I mean, it's definitely there. Ooh, nice shot from Martinez there.
Starting point is 02:05:10 Oh, I'll go. Nice shot back from Maldo. That was a little. an exciting round. 2018 for me. Yeah, I'm going to go Al-Doh as well. But Martina's got a little bit of momentum there. This is going to be a fun third round.
Starting point is 02:05:22 Yeah, I mean... Go Al-O as well. Just going to keep it like that. Wow. Live odds. What's your guess? Minus 575 for Al-Aldo. Minus 1450.
Starting point is 02:05:33 Damn. Yeah, Aldo. Montoya's saying, if you don't get your pace going, you are going to lose this fight. I mean... Obviously, Montoya, in the corner of... It needs to be more... hey, you need to knock him out or you're going to lose this fight.
Starting point is 02:05:54 He's telling him, he thinks he hurt him. He stung him in that. I mean, they had a big exchange in that second round. Oh, yeah. That looked dicey for a minute. I thought they were just going to drop it all and just go to blows there. Yeah. All right.
Starting point is 02:06:15 Here we go. There's the Connor McGregor. Yeah, let's go. Michael Chan, the promo. Love it. All right, here we go. Round three. Jels out of this could be the last round.
Starting point is 02:06:27 We see him fight in the other. Octagon. You absorb it. Take it in. He's looking great so far. Let's see if you can put a stamp on this. Here we go. Respect from both of them.
Starting point is 02:06:39 There we go. Here we go. Round three. There we go. Close fight. I think it's Aldo looking great, though, up 2018. Yep. Let's see what happens.
Starting point is 02:06:48 Oh, big combination from Aldo. Nice rip to the body again. Oh. These guys are going at it, man. Aldo's just kind of phone boothing them right now. I don't know if I love the strategy from him. Good body kick from Martinez. Yeah, nice body kick from Martinez.
Starting point is 02:07:16 Another combination from Aldo. Oh, Aldo going for a take down there. throws them off now. It's kind of whips them off. Minus 1450 for Jose right now. It's crazy. That feels large, but we'll see what happens. It feels definitely dicier than that.
Starting point is 02:07:33 Ooh, nice. Ripped to the body by me by Martinez. That was nice. It was just so much. screaming going on in the arena right now, whether it's a Chan or Al-O's corner. Aldo's not throwing like kicks. I'm stunned.
Starting point is 02:07:58 It's right there. Oh, Martinez going for some elbows there, some short elbows there. The low leg kick is right there. Oh, nice right. Aldo. Need of the body's right there. Like, there's things all those.
Starting point is 02:08:08 Oh, goes for a body kick. Nice combo. Oh, big knee. Oh, he's back to the body. Oh, that left hand to the body, Martinez did not like that very much. Those body combos from
Starting point is 02:08:23 Jose Otto are just simply beautiful. Yeah. Martinez hits him once and then Aldo comes back with three. Getting close. Nice of knee from Martinez. Mate's just screaming. Good right here from Aldo.
Starting point is 02:08:46 Short elbow from Martinez. He keeps going through these short elbows for Martinez, man. Oh, yeah. Take to the body from Aldo. A nice left there for Martinez, though, as well. Halfway through round three. Aldo just staying defensively sound, putting out these combos.
Starting point is 02:09:14 Ooh, barely misses his ducked under the spinning back fist. Sheesh. Oh, that would break my heart right now. Spinning back fist, just ice is just hell. That'd be insane. I was just a step ahead here. Blocks the body kick. He's getting Jonathan to bite over.
Starting point is 02:09:36 Oh, yeah. He has been for a while. Man, those bodies are really good. Oh, what a left hand right on the ear. Oh, is he wobbles? Oh, indeed. Oh, indeed. Oh, he just got a bowels.
Starting point is 02:09:43 together. He got a nice knee. Oh, he's holding him another nice knee. Oh, beautiful combo. Oh, he's wobbling. Oh, he picks him up. Oh, now he's got him. He's got him down. Push the fix. Oh, throws on guard. He's just dumped them down. I guess I thought he was going to try and finish him there. Hoo! My heart. Yeah, I thought he's, I thought he was about to finish him there. Martinez is lifeless. Lifeless. He was just putting together combo after combo. He was lifeless body of the ground. That was crazy. Just hang there for the next 70 seconds, man.
Starting point is 02:10:31 Final minute. Although should 30-27 this at this moment. Martinez trying to chuck some elbows off his back. Although he'll land some left hands over the top. Oh, it worked his top control. It hurt so bad. I thought he was going to finish him. Me too.
Starting point is 02:10:45 Surprise he chucked him to the ground like that. Now he's passing. Yeah, passes. Oh, I thought he mounted him for a second. He might mount him. He's so close. It's right there. 40 seconds.
Starting point is 02:10:59 But he's just happy kind of sitting here, which is fine. He's got that leg traps. Oh, Martinez trying something, nothing there, 30 seconds to go. 25, 24. Martinez now cut over the right eye. Yeah, I really am surprised Jose decided to take it to the ground. Yeah, that's it. 3027 for me, but we got five seconds to go. You never know. Five seconds. Three, two, one.
Starting point is 02:11:36 And Jose Alito. Gelsa. Jose Alito in Rio. And Jonathan is pissed. Oh, I mean, Jose. That was unbelievable. What a performance from him, man. Wow. Very emotional right now, Jonathan Martinez. Good fight. Great fight. Great fight. There you go. Wow. Should be a clear 3027 for Aldo. I got a 10-9 off. I have it 30-27 for Aldo as well. Wow, man.
Starting point is 02:12:14 What a performance from Josiah Aldo. Vintage, man. Vintage. So good. Jonathan's got to take so much from this fight. Mark Watoya, just a look on his face. If looks could kill. And now that all those teams, like, okay, enough's enough.
Starting point is 02:12:48 I mean, he was all class. Yep. And Rio going bananas. And now he's going to ride off into the sunset as a free agent, perhaps. Jose. Gets it done. What is next? Now we have to find out.
Starting point is 02:13:16 You know, if you're Connor McGregor right now, you're... Are we going to get the Sean O'Malley? You told me what Sean O'Malley has a tweet in the bank. I think it's got a common. I think it's coming. Oh, my gosh. I can't believe you, for me. performed like that.
Starting point is 02:13:29 Bam! That right hand. He looked so good in this fight. He looked amazing, dude. He looked so good. 30-27 him. Is he a top five Bannamway right now? I don't know.
Starting point is 02:13:46 I don't know. I want to hear what he has to say. It'd be pretty funny if he just like, he just like, it's like, F you, UFC, I'm out of here. I mean, he might just do that. I'm Davey Feldman. I'm already on the phone with his people. Let's go.
Starting point is 02:14:01 Go fight. Hey, let you go. We got Jimmy Rivera and Daniel. Strowse fighting and Mohegan you get the winner for the featherweight title let's go oh that was amazing good stuff all right let's make it official with the buff man sal de amato scores it we get a split decision oh my god can you imagine that oh my gosh john edict's like count down buff it's jose aldous world he'll do his thing now beltrane's like let's go 3027s all it has to be all

Guys, there's only one thing left to do. Well, two things left to do. What's that? Ripp. But then there's one thing left to do. What's that? Watch the Euroc fight for U.S. title little viny siggs is about to fight for a world championship i wonder if what jose is going to say here oh that was incredible this so cool had j mart hurt pretty bad but if he like it finished in that third round and he just like jumped over the cage and went into the crowd and all that like that had been insane oh that was amazing but still very very cool all right little stevie ursag is about to

Starting point is 02:16:35 Bam! Rips to the body over and over again. There comes a body kick. Boom. Straight to the head. Straight to the dome. Boom. Just tremendous. He looks so... He looks so good. He looks so good. And Jonathan Martinez, he's going to be a top, he's going to be a top 15 guy for a hot minute.
Starting point is 02:17:01 Like, he's, he's very solid. But hopefully this is a loss he can bounce back from and just like be okay with it. What's next? What's next? There you go, D.C., let's go. Uh-oh. He's got his hands on the gloves. What's going on here?
Starting point is 02:17:27 What is the hell is happening? Thank, Jonathan. Sitting with Dana. Sean and honors. Who are you? Call it, Sean. I'm alley. Do it.
Starting point is 02:18:01 Do it. Do it! Make the run at the belt. That'd be amazing. Do you think he comes back? I mean, it sounds like he wants to. That means, you know, you gotta have conversations. You gotta see what the UFC's gonna chuck his way.
Starting point is 02:18:35 I mean, yeah, you gotta talk about it at least. Dude, they offer him a title fight in like a big main event, like, something he's gonna have to think about. If I'm PFL, like, I'm throwing on like a mill of fight right now. A miller fight, two miller fight. Yes. I mean, what are we doing? How much money is too much money for the BFL?
Starting point is 02:18:57 Because whatever's too much money, add 500K a fight to that. They got it. Good for Jose. Good shit. I could be wrong, but like, does PFL have a men's bansomite? Bellator does. Stupid ass league.
Starting point is 02:19:20 I mean, look, like, Jose is doing the season anyways. Jose is the pay-per-view fight cards. Jose against one thing. Hey, big dog, what up? Jose against the Pelotaur 135ers? Jose, I mean, dripped, dude. You talk about Orenio right next to him, too.
Starting point is 02:19:43 I mean, you talk about barbecue chicken alert. Let's go. Jules Zosayado versus Bellator 135ers. Ah, wait, hey. Joseoza versus Patchy Dix. Never mind. That's a sick fight. That's a sick fight.
Starting point is 02:19:55 I would rather him try and go for the title in the UFC, though. Yeah, but him versus. patch would be awesome. Yes, I'm sorry I forgot about patchy mix. Like that'd be cool just to see like patchy text like true. I'm not saying like he wasn't tested by like Sergio Pettis and stuff, but like Jose Aldo would immediately come in and be like at worst the number two Bannamweight in that company. Yeah, of course. Whoo. Alexandria Pettosia. He did it, man. He really did that, huh? He did it. He did the damn thing. Insane. And look at Vinny Siggs. Just looking.
Starting point is 02:20:31 Just looking prime for an upset. Look at him. Look at him. I got the blue Stevie E. Polo going on here. He's a madman. He is a madman. Look at this guy. No pressure on him whatsoever.
Starting point is 02:20:46 House money fight if there ever was one. Maybe. Always thinking this is his one. He's already got the green and yellow shorts on. Just ready to rock. We got a promo for some sort of Mad Max movie. Yeah, Matt Max movie. Shout out.
Starting point is 02:21:05 We got an epic. battle that's going to be in theaters everywhere. What do you think of this movie, Frank? Is it in your wheelhouse? I have never seen any of the Mad Max. Really? I'm surprised. I'm surprised. I plan on watching the O.G. Really? Yes. Wow, what timing. The new one? I mean, the... Oh, you're
Starting point is 02:21:25 watching the OGOG. The OGOG. The Mel Gibson. Oh, yeah. So, Dunderdone, is that the second or the third one? Thunder Dome. Oh, wow, we're getting a Connor McGregor promo right now. No, dude, no talking about Matt Max? Yeah, the counter promo has to...
Starting point is 02:21:43 This is pretty sick, I have to say... We have to get the music going on. Foggy Duo. 629-24. This is pretty sick. This is pretty sick. Oh, that's all it was. That was bad.
Starting point is 02:21:56 That's a little teaser. Why could they not have just done that at the end of UFC 300? Just played that exact thing. We're in the middle. The presser. What did you say? Or even in the middle. Like, that's so...
Starting point is 02:22:07 Or even in the middle anywhere. Like that's just so subtle. You just drop the 629-24 on us. Yeah, yeah, that was still sick. That was still sick. Back to Mad Mad Max. Or you do what WWE did today, and they announced where WrestleMania 41 is going to be during the Kentucky Derby. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 02:22:24 Very smart. What are you yapping on about Mad Max? That was a third one, by the way. Beyond Thundergum is the third one. Yep. So I'm going to watch the three OGs. Does Waterworld fit in there at all? I did see that.
Starting point is 02:22:37 that one. There's a Waterworld one? Waterworld is like another post-apocalyptic thing. I'm not even gonna lie. I thought there was just the OG and then the most recent one and now this one. Waterworld is just like a post-apocalyptic movie,
Starting point is 02:22:51 but it's not part of like that particular series. I was trying to make it funny. Waterworld was like one of the biggest flops in the history of film. Really? Mad Max Waterworld? No, no, no, no, I've confused him. Yeah, it's not a Mad Max movie. Oh.
Starting point is 02:23:05 It's just like when I convinced him that Sting from AEW was sting from the police? When did this happen? At an AEW match. Yeah, I mean, this lasted for all of like six seconds or so. Who's the greatest six seconds ever? Me, obviously, not a wrestling fan. Yeah, him, Ariel and Rick, we're just like, yeah, it's actually the, like, he's old now,
Starting point is 02:23:26 but, like, it's the same sting that's, like, the musician. I was like, really? They were like, yeah, we know it's like, it's insane, but yeah, it's him. I was like, wow. And then the guy walked out, and then I was just like, like, oh, that's not him. But I did believe them for a moment in time. I definitely did believe them. That's incredible. Not a wrestling fan. Just going to go out there and say that. Oh, man. We still have an honor to go. Now, all joking aside, Connor, Sting did have his own movie in the 90s called
Starting point is 02:23:55 The Crow. Nice, man. All right. Nice. He did play the Crow character. Waterworld. Kevin Costner. Oh, yeah. Now, what does this has to do with? Mad Max, nothing at all. Just kind of just threw it out there on a win. Yep. They are similar. Not even one point in bringing it up. Just, it was the
Starting point is 02:24:21 post-apocalypse kind of the thing. But I remember, when did that come out? When did that come out? 1999. 1995. I remember so all the hype around that movie. And then it did, it just did nothing. Like the money they spent on it.
Starting point is 02:24:37 Yeah. They had a huge budget. It's so much commotion. Yeah. So much happened. It was like one of those movies that was just kind of like failed from the jump. Just had horrible luck. So all joking aside, there's three Mad Maxi.
Starting point is 02:24:53 Is that the plural of Mad Max? Mad Maxis. Mad Maxis, all right? And then there's Fury Road. Yes. And then this new one, which is a prequel. So damn, I'm going to have to read the Wikipedia article to make sure I get this straight. Read them, bro.
Starting point is 02:25:08 It's a lot of confusion. But I'm going to start with the Oval. OGOG tomorrow. Okay. Nice. I love it. All right. Okay.
Starting point is 02:25:17 Let's pull an auto, boys. Connor McGregor prediction from Frankie. Yes. It's in that pack. I'm going to say Diana Belbeda. Brandon Moreno. Nice. Manor Nunez.

Starting point is 02:26:24 The song, I think, is Roxanne. It's not. Wait, you're actually being serious? I don't know what anymore. I can't tell you this guy. It's definitely not Roxanne. Jim Crouchy. Super, is this, you don't tug on Superman's cape?
Starting point is 02:26:42 There is, I don't think one person in the arena is talking right now. No. Well, all right, half of people left is Jose. just won. Yeah, they gotta get to Madonna. Croatian and Italian descent. All right, here we go. He is walking to Jim Crocey, by the way. Respect, by the big time respect. Sergey Speedback.

Starting point is 02:28:39 Okay, confirmed sideways. No, it is a vertical. This is awesome. I think it's a male fighter. It's not Blahman. Is that Diego Lopez? Whoa. Is that Diego Lopez?
Starting point is 02:28:52 That's a Diego Lopez. That's a Diego Lopez auto. Let's go. That's a good. I'm grateful. That is a fantastic poll.

Starting point is 02:29:20 Checking the live line, minus 250, minus 4,50, minus 700, Alejandro Pantosia after hearing many men. Even the Vinnie Siggs fans have to stand. I mean, it's as scary as it gets. There he is. Oh, he's all. Shirts off! Shirts off from Pantosia. Let's go.
Starting point is 02:29:39 Dude, looks ready to go. Oh, he looks ready to go. Come on, pants. I mean, Erseg is everybody's darling, but Pantosia's got a great story. It would just be hilarious. I agree. I agree. It would be a fair.

This man might get a belt wrapped around his waist in the next half hour. The funniest thing in the world. I can't, like, really wrap my head around that. I can't really fathom.
Starting point is 02:34:02 like what that looks like. I've been fathoming it all week. It's just, it's tough. It's tough to take in. I know. It's unbelievable. There he is. The minus 185 favorite,
Starting point is 02:34:15 the most underappreciated fighter in the roster. And I'm doing it right now. I mean, I appreciate him, but. Let's go. Cannibal! There's a little smirk from the champion. Take it all in, my man. I figured his reception would be a little bit louder than this.
Starting point is 02:34:41 I mean, it's something. Yeah, I mean, they're cheering. Yeah, they're cheering. They're cheering. I mean, we can't compare it to Joselle. That's not fair. Okay. It's time.

Light kick checked right there from Erseg. Oh, good right hand from Erseg. All right, Brazilian fans getting into it now. They're getting themselves a scrap.

Starting point is 02:38:11 Yeah, it scoots all the way back over the fence. Oh, yeah, really starting to see some blood on that forehead of Erseg. There's some blood. Good read from D.C. there. This is a pivotal moment. Oh, yeah, pushes him off, right back on him. Ersec up. Knee to the body.
Starting point is 02:38:32 That was nasty as Erseg was trying to get up. Ventosia dumps him back down. Mantos just trying to mount. him here. Nope, he's happy staying in the half guard. Steve doing a pretty good job here. Let's see if you can get back up again. Oh, some nice shot he's got his arm pinned. Yep. Erseg rolls out. Yeah, gets it out, gets back up. Scambling over here. Making eggs. Dragging Stevie down. Ventosia drags him down trying to get the hooks in. Come one in. Use that. Oh, Erseg rolling. Nice job for Versaig. And Tosa stays on top.
Starting point is 02:39:08 And Pintosier gets side control. Trying to pin that arm down. Erseg's staying very calm here. Yeah. Just over a minute left. Vantosia's got his leg. This is kind of the big worry from Ersegh betters. Yep. He's trying to take it back.
Starting point is 02:39:30 But look at him. Man, rolling right along. Just rolling around. This is some high-level stuff here down on the mat. Oh, nice elbow from Pantosia. Some big shots, big shots. Oh, man, he's raining down on him now. Erseg's back up.
Starting point is 02:39:44 Get back up. Still on the back. Under Campbell, just to the left. I'm still... Nice close view of his young, hot prospects, Stevie Ersek. That's right. That's right. 20 seconds to go.
Starting point is 02:40:02 Dump some back down. Tries him. Trag's on top. Doesn't get him. Oh, Ersexon. Look at this. And Pantosia back up. He's back up.
Starting point is 02:40:12 Ten seconds. Ten seconds. Ten seconds to go. He's got pants back it up a little bit here. Oh, both of them. A left-handed in me. Oh, okay. 10-9 for pants.
Starting point is 02:40:26 Yeah, I'm going Pantosier around there for sure. 10-9 pants nice yeah so my my official pick on the people's pre-play show was that
Starting point is 02:40:42 Pantosia was gonna dominate round one he was gonna get Erseg down he's gonna have big moments I said it could it's like we might even see a 10-8 wow you thought it was gonna be that darned but Erseg was gonna stand up at the end of round one
Starting point is 02:40:56 after being off of his back okay round two starts Pantosia's gonna have a lot of success early he's gonna go for a take down He's not going to get it. Erseg sprawls beautifully. They get back up. Pan starts landing again, goes for another takedown,
Starting point is 02:41:10 and just when he shoots for that second takedown, boop, uppercut. AO, it's over, round two. If that happens, I'm never betting or making a prediction for a fight ever again. Be the first to do it. He'd be the first to do it.
Starting point is 02:41:25 It would. It would be wild. We had a clash of heads. That is what did the cut in, according to the broadcast. There's a media member just looking, bored of tears sitting there watching this fight,
Starting point is 02:41:38 and I can't imagine why. Because this is a good one. Oh, big right hand from Pantosia. Now they're just swinging. I love this. Oh, good kick to the body for Ersig. Some nice shots from Pantosia here. You're all right?
Starting point is 02:41:52 For a second, I thought he dropped him. I thought he dropped him for a second. But there's just pants just switching levels. Just being a menace and slipping, I think. Pantosia got him up against the cage. And on a leg? And on a leg, man, when you see him, like, right now, you can, like, Ersig is a big dude, man.
Starting point is 02:42:10 He's huge, man. Oh, nice knee there from... Pantosia off the break. Okay. Erseg moving forward. Got pants backing up a little bit. I think he's waiting pants to get up very aggressive here. Kick to the back of the leg from Erseg.
Starting point is 02:42:41 Well, combos are both kind of missing there. Yep. Standing right on the Monster Can. Nice leg kick from Pantosia. All right, he's moving forward with the jab. A couple of good ones. Big overhand, right misses for Pantosia. Another jab from RSAG.
Starting point is 02:43:04 Oh, Pants just... Oh, nice shot. That right hand landed well for Hersey. Pants got him, takes him down. That was nice. That was nice. Let's see. Pants got a lot of time to work out.
Starting point is 02:43:22 Did he mount him? Yeah, I think he's mounted him. Sure did. Oh, no. Oh, no, he did. Yep. Yeah. Oh, let's see what he does with.
Starting point is 02:43:29 Oh, he's going for the arm bar. Oh, man. I don't know. Ors Sakel fights out of it. That was nice. Good job by Stevie. Yeah. Not a lot of people expected this.
Starting point is 02:43:44 Pants on top, Lends a nice little short left hand. Rinse and repeat here from Pantosia. Just smart. Oh, Rasek flipped him over. Look at Ersseg. Look at the strength from Steve Erseg. Now he's got him up against the cage. Nice knee from Pantosia.
Starting point is 02:44:01 All right. Man, look at the strength. The explosion from Steve Erseg. Back at range, halfway through the first round. Oh, nice left hand. Panic of the looping variety. perfectly said. Oh, goes to that uppercut that you were trying to call.
Starting point is 02:44:25 Uh-oh. Pantoja's trying to lock something up. I don't think he's got anything here. He's trying for the gilly, but... Yeah. Pops his head back out. They're back at range. I keep chucking that jab out there.
Starting point is 02:44:40 He's moving forward. He's got pants moving backwards. Throw that jab. Throw that jab. The upper cut from how. Oh, my God. Not quite as much activity here in this round. Oh, there's some.
Starting point is 02:44:50 Oh, a little counter left from Steve. Oh, that's a little. That was a flicky little head kick. That was nice, front kick. Nice right hand from Pantosia. Oh, Ersing with the right hand. Oh, good elbow. Ersing!
Starting point is 02:45:08 Wow, that was a nice right hand. Pantosia on a takedown. And it's kind of like, it's kind of like, yeah, I'll just eat one to get this takedown here. Ersig back up. Yeah, nice. Oh, Pantosia trying to throw them.
Starting point is 02:45:21 Doesn't work. They're both on the ground, a little scrambled to other back in range. All right. Oh, look, it's steep. Steve! Look at Steve at the confidence boost! Let's see if you could do something here. This round's very close.
Starting point is 02:45:38 It is very close. Oh, nice. I love the elbow from Steve Erseg. Nice leg kick. Checked by pants. Oh, nice counter right from Erseg. Oh, that's a nice shot. Oh, body kick from Pantosia.
Starting point is 02:46:04 All you do is piss him off. Pants is getting hit. Oh, those elbows are so. So good. Oh, Pantosja going for another takedown. Ersake stays up, trying to just dump them down, gets him down. Erstsing's probably okay being down here. He's got, I think he won this round.
Starting point is 02:46:30 Uh, yeah, I think I'll, I'll, this is some nice shots from Pantosia here. Upkick? I think, I think Stevie just tied things up here. Yeah. Yeah, the boxing look crips. I'm going, Erseg. I'm going Ersek. I'll go to tie night Erseg.
Starting point is 02:46:51 I hope. Tie ball game through two. I love it. I mean, I have to see what our buddy RF has to say. I know Ryan Frederick's getting on the screen. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. We need to see some Twitter scorecards after that one. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 02:47:06 Where are the live odds at right now? Minus 160 Pantosia, Erseg plus 124. So it feels like the sports books probably seen it the same. There's a, yeah. Such a nice takedown. Oh, yeah, take downs are great. The boxing really coming together for Steve Ursa. Bam!
Starting point is 02:47:31 Yeah, wow, that elbow was. nice, man. I didn't catch that full in full speed. All right, man. This is interesting. Let's go. Round three. Oh, that's step in elbow again. Pantslands a combo. Good jab from Erseg. Pantosia.
Starting point is 02:48:04 Nice knees. Erseg push them up against the cage. Pantosia flips it. Erseg flips it. Ah, and separating. They're dancing over here. Look at this. Left hand from Erseg blocked. Aaron Bronsetter, 1919. Aaron's had a lot of wrong scorecards.
Starting point is 02:48:29 Don't she had 1919? I feel like most people are going to say 1919. Paul Fontaine, 1919. What are Ryan Frederick do? I haven't seen his name all night. Yeah, dude, is he taking the night off? What's going on? We miss him, bro.
Starting point is 02:48:42 All right. Very close on the striking numbers here. RF is at the Madonna show. Oh, fair, fair, yeah. Oh, nice body shot from Pantosha. Nice chap from Mursa. Yeah, nice draft from Mursig. Nice track from Mursig.
Starting point is 02:48:57 The Pan throws a big right and Ersek ducks right underneath it. Ooh, that's a little upper guy. It goes for the upper cup, but a nice combo to the body by my pan told you there. This is way more tense than I thought it was going to be. Oh, yeah, it's great, man. I mean, this round right so far is razor close. I have no, I have no idea who was winning. Head kick comes up a little short.
Starting point is 02:49:31 I think you just kind of chuck it out there to give them a little bit of a different look. Oh, a nice little flurry. Yeah, Felder and DC are imploring. Steve Ersek to just sit on that jab. Ooh, that was a nice left from Pantosia. Ripped to the body there. When he's out, when he's moving forward and jabbing, it's perfect. Oh, yeah, man. He's having a lot of success.
Starting point is 02:49:56 Oh, I couldn't even tell who landed there. Pumps out a couple of jabs that come up short. Left hook, grazes. Pantosia answers nicely. Ooh, a little shove there. That was interesting. Goes up against the cage. You got the clinch battle.
Starting point is 02:50:18 Ersek trying to get that underhook in there. Look at those odds, man. Just about even. Yep. Pretty much 50-50. This round is very, very close. We have a collision of heads. Or maybe a knee that was close to the nuts. Potentially, yeah.
Starting point is 02:50:34 Mark Goddard, beautiful stoppage, Frank. I'm sure you agree with that. Ante Tosje keeps pushing forward on the cage, Stone in knees. Oursaegg just kind of chucks them off. Just them into the pants, a little Dustin Porier-esque. I like it. A little Steve Erseg-Flear to it.
Starting point is 02:50:50 Oh, both guys landed there. Yeah. Pants at the nice right hand. Ooh, nice little flurry there from Pantosia. Nice jab from Ursa. Jack from Erseg is money. Ooh, both guys landing again, man. Pants is looking pretty good in this wrap.
Starting point is 02:51:11 Oh, big combo from Pantosia. Now he goes for a takedown. Pantosia's not a human being. Like, he's not a human being. Oh, now he's got some, oh, he's bleeding bad. Oh, is he holding his head? What hit? Was it a punch?
Starting point is 02:51:33 Was it an elbow? Dude, Ers Sake elbowed him and hit him so hard. Oh, wow. Wow, yeah, I completely missed this. Watch this album. Oh, look at that elbow. Wow, I completely missed it.
Starting point is 02:51:41 It was so fast. He hits him again. Yeah. That's why I said it. Wow. Oh, great catch by you, man. I only saw the combo from Van Zanzasio. Wow, he is bleeding bad.
Starting point is 02:51:52 Yeah. Is that a fight ending cut? Is that a fight ending cut? That was nasty from Erzic. How was he even on top right? How was he staying? I'm not going to lie, that was a great combo for Antosia, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:52:08 Pants is hiding in the gut. He's hiding it. Oh, for sure, man. For sure. He immediately put his hand on his head. The rule is, if you can't put your finger in the hole, it's fine. What do they do? Put Vaseline in his hair?
Starting point is 02:52:21 We'll figure it out. Oh, get out of the way, ref. Oh, whoa. We got a back take. Stevie Ersig. Stevie Erseg rolling out. Oh, good job, my pants. Wow, he's trying to lock it.
Starting point is 02:52:33 He doesn't want to see a fourth round. He doesn't want to see a fourth round. Oh, man. Oh, Ersick trying to stand. He gets him off. He gets him off the back. Ten seconds to go. Seven, six.
Starting point is 02:52:46 Oh, man, a lot of sweat, a lot of blood. Santosi stays on top. Oh, we're going to get a dock in there, I think. We'll see how they handle it. Oh, gosh. Oh, he's covered that cut. Oh, boy. That would be so crazy.
Starting point is 02:53:05 Man. for that round I am going Pantoja I'm going pants but man I mean that was yeah I mean can you give the guy around if there was a fight ending cut in there
Starting point is 02:53:18 like I don't know Ersake clearly landed the most significant shots of that round but I think pants just landed a little bit more yeah so I'll go 10 nine hands but I mean I wouldn't be shocked
Starting point is 02:53:31 if you gave it if you I don't know about any of these rounds I'm shit at scoring I don't know This fight is pretty crazy, though. I'm loving it. It's a good fight. Yeah, see, I saw the left hand, and then I saw the right.
Starting point is 02:53:45 I didn't even see the elbow in real time. And the left, man. I missed that. I'm blind. My elbow was freaking nuts. Boom, that left hook was insane. How does pant tell you eat that? He ate it.
Starting point is 02:53:57 Like, it was nothing. Wait, who was about to throw up pants? Yeah, what did John Nett just say? I don't know. He said someone was about to throw up? He said someone looked like he was about to throw up on the stool. So I don't know if it was, I don't know who he said. What if one of them just threw up right now in the fight ended?
Starting point is 02:54:29 That'd be crazy. That happened in a regional scene recently. Shout to Coposa. For posting that. Nice leg kick from Erseg. Kaposa is just a true gem. That would just be just such a crazy ending to the fight. Oh my God.
Starting point is 02:54:44 Just, just it looks like the complete just leaking has stopped for now. But those elbows are working. Erseg goes for a take down. Is he trying to take him down? What are you doing? No, Erseg tried to take him down. Not so I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, uh, Fini Sigs. Keep throwing those elbows if you're Ersec. What are the odds at right now?
Starting point is 02:55:02 Minus 270 Pantosia. Okay. Championship runs. Yeah, a lot of circling here for Pantosia. Oh, he stepped in with that elbow again. Yeah, trying it. Now Pantosia going for a take down, gets stopped. Steve Defends.
Starting point is 02:55:26 Diffends. Their short little upper cup might come here. It might come here. Oh, there was an attempt with the upper cup. Good job for Erseg. Trying the leg kicks. Oh, big combination from pants. Very nice.
Starting point is 02:56:04 Oh, now Erseg goes through a takedown back up. Big left hand, but a nice knee from Ersek? These combinations, these flurries, there's too much going on, I can't tell. I need to watch it in slow motion. He's quick flyways. Flicks out that kick. Do you see them saying like how weird Pantosia looks? Good, right hand from the Challenger.
Starting point is 02:56:33 He's got, I mean, pants is backing up. Oh, nice jab. Snaps the head back. Another combination from Ersag. That cuts opening back up. Yep, you think you're right, Frankie. Great call.
Starting point is 02:56:48 Yep, that cut is back opened up. Oh, nice little flurry there. He's coming in. Vinny's just got to keep throwing. You just sit on that jab, man. Just keep throwing, man. Circling from Pantoja. He's getting a little wide-eyed right now.
Starting point is 02:57:04 He's getting a little wide-eyed. Rip to the body, right hand. You've got pants missing him now. Oh, man. Light kick, nice from Pantosia. Oh, nice jab from Erseg. Nice little double jab from Pantosia. Pants are in the real back up.
Starting point is 02:57:25 Yeah. Oh, nice exchange from both. Oh, now he goes for a takedown, sprawl from Pantosia. Oh, Pantosia. Oh, my God. He was going to Gilliam for a second. He must not have watched Vitor Petrino versus Anthony Smith. Nice jab.
Starting point is 02:57:47 This is what he needs to do. Yeah, just keep in. Just keep punching. He made pants uncomfortable. Oh, good rip to the body. Minute left. Nice front kick. The cuts in his eye now.
Starting point is 02:58:08 There's blood in the eye. Nice jab again. Oh, good combination. Ersig looking real good here in round four. Pan's like he's going to fall over, but he's so, he's got that zombie. I was going to say he has looked like this in many fights before. Oh, good left game for Merseg. Oh, wow. They're saying that potentially Pantosia's corner told him he's up three now.
Starting point is 02:58:42 Oh, which is great. There's that short upper cut. He hit it. But Pants is just not a human being. He's not human. It's insane. After all the wars and all the battles. Oh, wow, nice right hand from Pantosia. All right. Nine Ersang. Yeah, I'll go. I'll go 30. Nuss. I'll go 30-9. I'll see if I can sneak a tweet on the broadcast. I haven't tried all night, but we're giving it a word. world. All right, here we go. How are you going to write it up? You got to really do like generic, corporate, great rounds from both guys here. The challengers coming on. I've got it 3939.29. Hashtag UFC 301. I'm just going to do what I would normally do. You can get the
Starting point is 02:59:37 challenger plus 124 right now going into round five. I think it all comes down to this round. I think this is for everything here. Is it? I think it's one, three pants, two, four, Erseg, Urseg, with the momentum? Let's see what the crew is saying right now. That's what I'm curious. Just see. Let's see what the whole... Did you guys do a 10-8 on one of the...
Starting point is 03:00:02 No. So you're saying it's 39-39? Correct. Or no, no, no, no. 30-38. All right, 38, 38. All right, here we go, round five. 2-2.
Starting point is 03:00:15 We have some three-ones with the MMA fighting crew right now. Is Erseg about to become a world champion? Oh, my God. Oh, man. Oh, nice left hand from Pantos. That was nice. there's no i just don't see a world where oh stevemberg with a big takedown pantosia trying to push him off this is huge this is huge for ursay oh almost a nut shot pantosia now he's on in him now pantosia on top
Starting point is 03:00:55 we got the scratch this is exactly where pants wants right now oh let's see if you can hold him down though ursac been able to get back up pretty much all fight trying to posture to get back up Pantosia trying to pull him down. Hugging him, trying to pull him down. Let's see what Earth's I can do here. That's this huge. Oh. Oh.
Starting point is 03:01:17 Pulls him back in. I just don't see a word. I saw somebody tweet out it could be three-one Pantosia. I don't think that's the case. That person has to be the only person on planet Earth who thinks it could be three-one Pandota. I mean, his corner probably does too. But yeah, I think that's.
Starting point is 03:01:33 That's an insane scorecard. I'm sorry. If there's a 3-1, it's Stevie E. I think it's too. Man, yeah, he got close to pulling. There's some fence grabs by the challenger. Whole bunch. Not a single point taken.
Starting point is 03:01:49 If we had the other ref, he would have taken. Oh, my gosh, he almost grabbed it again. If that had not been a padding there instead of a chain link fence. I mean, I don't blame him. This is what he should be doing because they're not going to take a point. What if the corner, I mean, what if the score cards are 3-1 or a second across the board? and all he has to do is survive. Then it would be the funniest thing ever.
Starting point is 03:02:10 Oh, trying to get the hooks in. He's trying to get the hooks in. He's on his feet. Steve Hursing is a dog, man. This is incredible. Nope. Paul Feld are completely right. It's anybody's round, G.C.
Starting point is 03:02:28 It's anybody's round. We're halfway through. It's all up in the air here. Oh, there's that little leopard. Oh, good exchange. Nice shot from both of them, man. Pants busted back open again. Wow, nine takedowns from Tantosia.
Starting point is 03:02:50 Head kick partially blocked by Pantosia. Oh, front kick from Stevie almost landed. Nice left hand from Pants. Another left hand from Pantosia. Erseg just got to keep throwing that jab out. Oh, he cut him again. He cut him again. Nice left hand.
Starting point is 03:03:10 Oh, he goes to the short elbow again, man. That was nasty. Leg kick. Oh, good left hand from pants. Oh, goes to the elbow again. Pants is a mess right now. That cut above the right eye is nasty from that short elbow he landed. He's jab it away here.
Starting point is 03:03:41 Oh, goes for a takedown. He might get it. Oh, Pantosia rolls. Now he's got a leg scrambling. Pantosia on top. Why is he taking him down? Pentosia on top. I don't understand.
Starting point is 03:03:52 And now Pantoja got him in the guard, bleeding all over his chest. Why would he shoot there? I don't understand. I don't get it. I mean, he hasn't had much success all fight. Ventosia's trying to pass. He was winning on the feet. He just caught him over again.
Starting point is 03:04:12 Bleeding bad, bleeding bad. This is scenes of Apollo Costa, Luke Rockhold. Oh, Gens him on the sweep. Oh, Pantosier. Get some back down. Wow, what a play by Pantosia there. I mean, Ersac just exploded. Pantosia was able to get him right back. Got to start landing some shots, though, here if you're Pantosia, man. I think he's losing the round, man. I think he's losing the round. There's got to do something. There we go. Erzak, oh, he took a big risk there. Pants has got to do some damage, though.
Starting point is 03:04:49 Oh, gets on the back. He's got the hooks it. Ersig sweeps out again. Wow. No, he's got a mountain. He's got a damage. He's going to damage him. Oh, there's some big shots. But Erseng turns it over and gets back into Halfcar. This is crazy. Wow. Wow. This is crazy. Man, what a fight.
Starting point is 03:05:06 What a fight. There's some big shots. Pantosia. Good fight. Raise those hands, Stevie E. Raise them. I'm going to go Pantosia there. I'm going to 48, 47 Erseg final score.
Starting point is 03:05:22 I think that was a close round on the feet. I know he cut him up with the elbow, but I think the control time for the final two minutes, but confidence level in that scorecard is total bias on my part. Is low. Is low. Yeah, I'll say I'm a biased on that one, so
Starting point is 03:05:39 close fight, man. Close fight. I don't know what a great fight. What a great fight. I don't know what they're going to do with them. Pantosha's not even big. I'm telling you, man. I have to say, you had Steve Irseg by K.O., there's just no K.O. in this guy, man. It's not possible. It's just crazy. I'll never do that again. It's just crazy.
Starting point is 03:05:58 let's see what the score cards or what the Twitter score cards think your guess is as good as my I know man let's see what the team has a lot of the team
Starting point is 03:06:12 I don't think going for that takedown was a great move that was terrible it was a bad call just a bad call might have costing the belt let's see what we have here
Starting point is 03:06:31 what are the people saying why are you going for take It's unexcusable. 4-1 pants from somebody. 3-2 Pantosia, 3-2 Erseg, 3-2 Pants. Your guess is just as good as mom, dude. 4-1 pants seems a little outlandish. I think 4-1-Pants is not a correct scorecard.
Starting point is 03:06:50 I don't think any judges are going to do that. Yeah. If Ersake loses, it's because he shot that takedown in round four. He just gave it. He potentially gave the fight away. 80 significant strikes to the head. Let's see. Let's see.
Starting point is 03:07:14 Let's see. Let's see. I mean, you look at the stats. Like, yeah, Erseg land the more damaging shots, the more strikes total. Mentosur's got nine takedowns and almost six minutes control time. Pride rules. Ersig definitely wins. Yes.
Starting point is 03:07:28 Playground rules. Erseg definitely wins. Let's see, man. Erseg looks they can go like another four rounds. I think 48-47 either way is a completely fine scorecard. Jamal Hill scored the fight for Steve Erseg, by the first. the way. Give him two, three, and four. All right. Let's go. I think we're going to split decision. Go. Nope. Oh, 4946. It's it. 4946. It's not a good card.
Starting point is 03:08:13 That. Steve Erseg gave away the fight with that takedown attempt. I think if that stays on the feet. Yeah, he was winning the round. Wow. Wow. So you would want to split decision. Is it possible for Steve Irseg to rise in the rankings after a loss? Hell yeah. I mean, I think he needs to be like the fifth or fourth ranked flyweight in the world after that. He's a top five. He's a top five flyweight. He's a top ten, no question.
Starting point is 03:08:45 He was 12 going or 10 going into that. He needs to be like six at worst. That was an unbelievable. I'm bumping him up to at least the top five in my rankings for sure. if Steve If Steve Jadmore And if he just didn't shoot that take down Round 5 he wins
Starting point is 03:09:00 He wins this fight He's the champion right now It's crazy Wow But pants is just So game man So tough And Steve's realizing
Starting point is 03:09:13 He gave that away He'll be back Steve Hersake dude What a performance man A plus for Vincix A plus Vini Sigs for life Like it
Starting point is 03:09:24 I don't know It feels like Pantosia won the fight, but Erseg won the war. That was a great performance from Ersseg. Like, if this fight was taking place anywhere else in the world right now, Erseg would be getting, like, all the cheers.
Starting point is 03:09:39 I just like the way that he's reacting. Like, he's appreciative of Pantogia, but, like, it feels like as soon as the fight ended, he realized, I fucked that up. I gave it away. You could tell us coaches were telling the same thing, and they're like, man, you might still win this fight, but you also could have given this.
Starting point is 03:09:53 It's actually surprising to me is that when it said 49-46, it looked like Ersec was like, I lost. Yeah. Man, it was a good fight. I mean, he showed up. I have a scorecard at four, at having Steve Ursaig having one single round of that fight.
Starting point is 03:10:10 Seems weird. There was one Brazilian judge out of the three. So I'm guessing it's him. But yeah, 4946 just doesn't seem like a good card. But definitely not a robbery. I think if they had scored it for Ersec, I don't think it would have been a robbery anyway. No, I actually think the M.A community would have been like, yeah.
Starting point is 03:10:33 Pants saying need to stop getting hit so much, which is probably a good idea. But when you got a chin like that, it seems like you can just rely on it. So who does pants fight next? Is the question. Max Holloway, Alejander Pantosia, just slug-thust until someone punches only until someone gets knocked out? Pants are- Would it just go forever? If we'd go forever. One big round until somebody falls.
Starting point is 03:11:03 That was... So who does pants fight now? Who's the number one guy? Uh, Muhammad Maheyev wins on July 27th. If yeah, are they going to book them? Give him the Royval fight? I think that's probably where you do. Now he wants a break.
Starting point is 03:11:25 So we ain't fighting in July. Who's just Steve Erseg fight next? That's what I want to know. It's going to be on the main card. It's going to be in Perth. I'll be there. I got it. It's Steve Erseg versus the middle cop, Perth, Western Australia.
Starting point is 03:11:39 Sign me up for that. August. Let's go. On there. let's see what Steve's going to say just an absolutely it was a shock it was a shock that he
Starting point is 03:12:03 about Pantosia's scrambling ability I mean his his ground game is nice bro yeah he is a complete fighter he's very good I knew that I mean
Starting point is 03:12:14 I was saying stuff like that all week like his grappling is completely being overlooked here but pants is on like clearly a higher level he blew it oh man this is like this tough man
Starting point is 03:12:39 I was gonna say This is kind of a bummer. I mean, the guy has accepted exactly what has happened here that he, that he gave it away. He gave it away. Stud though, man. But stud, he'll be back. Good fight. Really good battle.
Starting point is 03:12:53 Shout to Astro Boy, Steve Ersig. Honestly, again, not the most star-studded card of all time, but fun one. Fun as hell. It's a fun one, man. Fun as hell. Good performance, good fight. Pantosius, again, not a human being, and Steve Ersig's going to be back, so. Chin is unreal.
