I'm Michelle McPhee, and I've been unraveling the strangest criminal alliance I've ever reported on, a Mormon polygamist and an Armenian businessman.

All right, guys, UFC 237 just wrapped from the Kasea Center in my Florida and what a tremendous night it was and my post-fight reaction video is brought to you by total wireless the official wireless provider of UFC there in

your corner with a limited 5G data that will not slow you down now that's a total power move you guys see the boy miles back there you celebrate today because Arsenal got beat it's unreal how Liverpool fans can celebrate even though they don't win tonight belong to Carlos Alburn Carlos Olberg is now the UFC light heavyweight champion on a torn knee or blown Achilles because the way it rolled up his cap it could be an Achilles Carlos Olberg was able to knock out Yuri Prohaska. You can watch my telestrator with Olberg throwing a jab to the body in the left hook. We spoke of how good his left hook was right before Dean Thomas spoke of how Carlos was trying to set

up the Czech left hook. Ultimately he lands that and finishes Yuri Prohaska, you know, so much will be made about this fight. And a lot of them will center around the idea that Yuri Prohasa showed compassion to Carlos Allberg. When Carlos couldn't stand, Yuri was standing in front of him, almost inviting him to let's just fight. Then Yuri admits it at the end of the fight, that he almost felt bad for Allberg because of the injury. Look, guys, nobody wants a title fight to end in that way. But ultimately, for Alberg, that was his only chance to get it done. I think that fight, that moment, him doing what he did on one leg,

shows you the heart and the spirit of Carlos Alberg. That dude was on one leg and threw that leg, that high kick, and he fell. Every time he already kicked him and he had to post on that back leg, he fell. But the one thing that never left in that time was his will, his spirit, and his mind. His mind never gave up on him and told him that he could not become the world champion, and now he is a world champ. City kickboxing has produced three world champions now in the UFC, Volcanowski, Etassania, and now Carlos Olberg.

There was so much made about this young man this week. They said he wasn't training. He wasn't in shame. He looked different than last year. All that stuff is, it's all cosmetic and it's all just a visual. You can't see the inside of what. the champion is, the heart that this young man carries. You know, I was very hard on Carlos Olberg in the bill to this.

I was wondering why he was the guy that was going to fight for the belt when he hadn't looked great and he hadn't fought the best guys. But when he beat Dominic Breaz, it showed that he should be in here fighting for the belt. Not only did he fight for the belt, he won tonight in tremendous fashion. And when I told him, I've been harder on him, I asked him if he had heard me be hard on him, He said, yes, I heard it. He said, and I wondered why. And I told him, I go, because you can always tell

that there was a lot of potential inside of you. How are you going to draw that out and reach your destiny? Tonight, he absolutely reached his destiny and became a world champion. So congratulations to Carlos Olberg and the entire city kickboxing team on bringing another championship to New Zealand. Hey, those people are fighters.

right it's a small place but it's a place filled with fighters and albert proved once again why when we think of new zealand we think of those fighters so congrats to the champion paulo costa beat azamad merzacconoff that was the best performance i think i've seen from paulo costa in a really really long time costa did a great job of using his weapons to set up a chance to finish the fight. When, again, he was walking to the octone, we said use body kicks from range to try to control Osamad. He did that.

He blasted body kick after body kick, after body kick early, and low kick, after low kick early in the fight to set Azamad up, and then it ended up hitting him with the high kicks. The third round, Paul O'Costa came out as if he was shot out of a cannon. He started throwing high. kick after high kick after high kick and ultimately he and Osama with so many high

kicks that eventually went down look Osama Merzakhanov is a very very tough guy for him to willingly go down after taking that head kick where it didn't just put him down it tells you how badly he must have been hurt because he understands what having a 16-0 record means in your career my boss is right here So I'm actually having my boss wait to talk to you guys, so y'all better appreciate to watch this video. Josh Hoken and Curtis Blades was the best heavyweight fight I have seen in a really long time. Josh Hockey can be crazy, he can be a bit annoying. But the way he fought tonight, you better respect him, right?

Because he didn't have to fight Curtis Blades in that way. And I always say, for you to have a legendary night, for you to have a legendary performance, you need the right dance partner. Tonight, Curtis Blades was that dance partner for Josh Okin, and ultimately it earned him a fight on the White House card because now he will turn right back around and fight Derek Lewis on the White House. This is a dream come true for a guy like Josh Okin.

It is huge for Derek Lewis to get the opportunity. Look, we're fighting on the president's birthday. The president said that Derek Lewis is his favorite fighter. He asked for him, and now he's going to give him. And now he's going to get him on the White House card. Now Josh Hokie gets to fight at the White House, and he earned that. Cub Swanson got the fairy tale ending, knocking out Nate Landware, getting to throw his hands up like he's done on so many different occasions over the course of his career.

It was amazing to see Cub. I was so nervous when Cub had his kids right next to the Octagon, man, because it's a scary, scary thought that a dad can lose in front of their children, especially when the children are that close. And if there's a guy that deserved the fairy tale ending, it's Cub Swanson. There's a saying that WEC never dies, right? A strike force never dies. Well, it's over now.

It's over for WEC. Cubs Swanson was the last WEC guy left, and it was fitting that it was him. because he was a guy that was so closely tied to that organization. And tonight, he got a fairy tale ending. Aaron Pico looked as good as he's ever looked in his entire life. He was fast, he was quick, as we all know he is. He used wrestling, and he was patient. I think that was probably the most impressive thing.

Guys, I will tell you this. If the Aaron Pico that showed up tonight fights that way all the time, he's a problem for Mozart. are, he's a problem for Volcanowski, Diego Lopez, and everybody else. His skill set is so complete. If he can fight right, he's a real problem for everyone. So hats off to Aaron Pico, his entire team, for putting together a game plan that worked and worked beautifully.

I thought that tonight was the true example of what Aaron Pico can be whenever he fights to his potential. Kevin Holland got a much needed a dub tonight over Randy Brown. And I thought Kevin Holland fought beautiful. He got clipped. As I was cutting the first round, he goes, all right, bet. And he just started fighting. And he fought so well.

He used his grappling wonderfully. Use his striking wonderfully. It was amazing. Congrats to Kevin Holland. Mattos Gamrod, with the beautiful submission victory over Esteban Rivavich. Tatiana Suarez got a beautiful submission victory tonight over Lupi Goldinez. Um, Marquiao Madero's and Chris Padilla was a great fight. I did not think it was a draw.

I thought Padilla won. I thought Madras did a good job of landing. Very clean effect of strikes. But I thought that the activity might have been a little bit too much, but great job. Hats off to Vicente Leuke for getting the submission. Etching his name in the record books, going up to 185 and doing that. And Charles Radke to start the night beat Francisco Prado. It was truly a great night from Miami, Florida.

And every year Miami just absolutely delivers. My total wireless performance of the night, guys, we'll go to Carlos Olberg, because how do you win a world championship on one leg? Can't stand. And you're in front of one of the most dangerous people in the entire world. You not only win, but you knock him out. It takes power. It takes you being grounded to knock someone out.

Oberg did it on one leg. And for that, he is my total wireless fighter and performance of the night. Congratulations, Champ. Guys, Miami delivered, once again, as it always has. I appreciate you guys always watching. Until next time, like, subscribe, and tell your friend to tell their friends that D.C.'s got a YouTube channel. And I'm doing stuff like this. Guys, look at how quickly we start to break down. Everything.
