I heart radio Well, ladies and gentlemen, it just happened. Breaking news, John Jones has retired from the UFC. This is just moments after UFC Baku, a card that was pretty interesting, had some good scraps, and in the main event,
Starting point is 00:02:20 I was, once again, Wade cursed completely wrong about Jamal Hill doing anything to change what's got him into trouble in his last couple of fights. And instead, Khalil Roundtree being the samurai that he is, in his custom UFC shorts getting the victory of piecing up, Jamal. And that's something I probably should have made a dedicated video about on this channel. But right now we have more pressing matters, no offense to either of those fighters. John Jones has now been confirmed to have retired from Dana White himself in the post-fight press conference of UFC Baku.
Starting point is 00:02:50 This is massive news for the UFC. It's massive news going forward. And I don't hate to say it, actually. I actually love to say it. Everybody on MMA YouTube was right. Everybody that said that John Jones was never going to fight Tom Aspinall was right. Everyone that said that John Jones was ducking Tom Aspinall was right and it just got confirmed. The breakdown. John Jones called us last night and retired.
Starting point is 00:03:13 John Jones was officially retired. Tom Aspinall is the heavyweight champion of the UFC. Bang! All right, yeah, I'm excited. Tom Aspinall is finally what, in my opinion, he always was when he won the belt and defended the interim belt. he is now the undisputed heavyweight champion of the UFC. And yes, this is bittersweet because I think everybody wanted to see John Jones fight Tom Asmanall for whatever reasons you had.
Starting point is 00:03:38 If you thought that John was over the hill, if you thought Tom deserved that right to win the belt from the man that had it before him, all of that is valid. And I think that it should have happened that way. But we don't live in a perfect world. And certainly in the UFC, not a perfect company. But I guess they tried to exhaust every option with John. I don't know. trying to give them the benefit of the doubt, but this is long past overdue, but finally, the rock voice,
Starting point is 00:04:02 finally we get the desired result, even though again, it's not the way anyone wanted it, it just needed to happen. They had waited for John to make a decision. Apparently, from Ariel Hawani, they had offered John a ton of money, and he still turned that down, and it was just one of these things where they were not going to make a deal. That's what I assume happened here. They just could not get John to say yes. and say there, John called him and retired last night. And it is a little bit of an odd situation because we did see John Jones just on the Nelk Boys podcast and having his happy dads. And as soon as he was asked a question, par for the course about Tom Aspinall, he dipset it out of the podcast. They didn't want any part of it. But I think it's also unfortunate that the UFC did not step out
Starting point is 00:04:48 and make this decision. They had to have John Jones come to them and offer the belt of. That to me is bizarre. And again, it shows me that the UFC was not inclined to strip John, that they weren't going to unless he gave up the belt. And why was that what it took? Why was it John giving the belt up to the UFC? Again, the company that owns the product that owns the belt for them to say, this is not going to work. We are killing our own heavyweight division in lieu of potentially, hopefully getting John to come back, however long that takes. However long we have to put Tom Aspinall on the however long we have to have him in an interim spot defending an interim belt while the heavyweight champion is healthy and just doesn't want to fight. And again, some people will say, well, he never beat John Jones for it, but that's not his fault. I mean, Tom Aspinall did everything he could to fight John Jones. Look at this however you want, but the point remains. John can still be one of, if not the greatest to have ever fought in MMA, but he ducked Tom Aspinall. And it's clear now. And there's no way to really excuse it. I mean, I mean, yeah, you can say John didn't feel like Tom was valued enough to fight him,
Starting point is 00:05:59 but he still ducked Tom Aspinall. He still didn't want any part of the Tom Aspinall fight. And I even hesitated for a long time to say, oh, John's not scared, none of that. And John's probably not petrified, but he is understanding of one thing that Tom Aspinall throws a wrench into the goat talks if he fights him because Tom Aspinall presents more of a danger to John Jones
Starting point is 00:06:23 than T. Be Miochich did. And that is the only reason John Jones retired because Tom Aspinall was too dangerous to fight. Point blank period, that was it. He was too dangerous for John to take the risk. And that's a duck, folks. Whether you want to believe that or not, or whether you want to consider John the greatest of all time
Starting point is 00:06:42 or one of the greatest of all time, doesn't really matter. Because I do that. I think John is the greatest fighter I have ever seen with my own two eyes. But he ducked Tom Aspinall, and I'll give you the reasons for it. Number one, you can't convince me that John didn't have the motivation to fight because a
Starting point is 00:06:58 couple of days ago on Twitter, he was calling out Francis Ngano, because Francis was rumored to come back. Number two, John got all the money he wanted out of this, or at least he was supposed to. Found a way to convince the UFC to give him the number he was asking for, and he still said no. That tells you all you need to know about what John thought about this fight. He wanted no part of it, point blank period and you can't get around that fact that'll stick on his legacy right not fighting tom and not doing the same thing other fighters in the past have done when the newest young challenger comes up to fight them for their belt not saying john ever had to do that but he also had his cake and ate it too because he didn't fight tom and also held on to the belt for as long as
Starting point is 00:07:46 and almost became the longest reigning heavyweight champion in UFC history without fighting more than twice. Now again, it is surreal because we are seeing one of the greatest ever, if not the greatest ever, retire. In a moment's notice, here, today, gone tomorrow. No big announcement. No press conference just done. While that stain on his legacy will come from the Tom Aspinall fight and potentially even, you know, the Francis and Gano fight when Francis was a part of the UFC that never happened, he does have 14 years of being elite his 14 15 16 title fights uh 12 title defenses john beat the best of
Starting point is 00:08:24 the era before him the best of the era he was in and the next era that came through beat the generation before him essentially the veterans and the top level of the generation that had already solidified themselves as he was coming into mma then he beat his generation of fighters you know, the Maricio Shogun, Huas, and the Rashad Evans and the rampages, and all those guys. And then he beat his era of fighters, right? The D.C., the Gustafsons,
Starting point is 00:08:54 D.T.or Belfors, the Lyoto Machitas. Then he beat the next generation. However you feel about the Dominic Reyes fight, which I think was a fight he probably should have lost, beat Anthony Smith. I know that's not a great win on paper now, beat Tiago Santos, beat that next generation, then move to heavy. beat the number one guy there at the time. I know Francis wasn't there and John probably should have
Starting point is 00:09:16 fought Francis. It's another stain that will always say, damn, wish we would have got that fight. And again, I think we didn't because of John Jones. But then he goes and beats Cyril Gahn fairly easily, beats Steve A. Meotich, which was way over the hill. I understand it wasn't a steep A that was considered one of the greatest heavyweights ever. But still beat him fairly easily. And John has racked up two belts in two different division still think he's one of the greatest to ever do it. So yeah, it's a bummer that we didn't get that final punctuation mark on John's career. Like, yeah, him going out on top and really leaving no doubt that he's the greatest ever. If he would have beat Tom Aspinall, there would have been no doubt. There would have been nobody in this comment section telling me
Starting point is 00:09:58 I'm an idiot because I'd said John Jones is the greatest. And I think that is a part of the reason that he won't be looked at that way is because we didn't get that final point, whether it good or bad, we didn't get that go out on your shield warrior style of ending for John Jones' career. And that's not necessarily a problem, but it kind of is when you drag out an entire division for a year plus just for the UFC to be at your beck and call. And then eventually you do the thing that John Jones, of course, does in this situation and control the narrative and control how this whole thing goes by saying, well, I just, I don't want to fight for it. for the belt. Tom is not worth me fighting him. So here, go have the belt. And I'm sure you're
Starting point is 00:10:44 going to see John Jones on Twitter saying in the next couple of weeks or months, he can have the belt, but he never wanted off me. That kind of mentality, I'm sure, is coming down the line. And yeah, that's just what I see happening, John trolling on Twitter for the next couple of months. But this is a massive moment. John Jones was a massive part of MMA for the last 15 years. And whether you want to believe this or not, and I'm glad that John's given the belt to I'm glad if he's going to ride off into the sunset that he's not taking the belt with him. Whether you want to believe this or not, he is one of the last major names in the sport right, at least down American soil.
Starting point is 00:11:19 And that may be a problem for the UFC because we've all talked about how they are having trouble creating stars, having trouble finding that next big superstar to come out of the octagon. And maybe it'll be Ilya Taboria or maybe it'll be Islam Makachiv. And maybe it'll be somebody else, Patty the Batty, Top. Aspinall, who know, but we do know that John, even though he wasn't a massive paper review draw, he was a star. And again, he was the greatest, in my opinion, or one of the greatest that's ever been in the octagon. So whatever you think about him, whether you like him or not as a fighter, whether you like him or not as a person, all that aside, this will be a massive hit for the
Starting point is 00:11:59 heavyweight division that John is not fighting Tom Aspinall. But again, it's bittersweet because at least if you're going to take that hit, John is giving the belt up and not just squatting and Tom Aspinall as the rightful champion now, and the rest of the division can move on. And maybe Tom becomes a big superstar, and John says, you know what? It's time to come back. But I doubt that happens. If he's not going to fight him now, I don't see why John would take another year off or another two years off, then come back and try to fight him again.
Starting point is 00:12:25 But who knows. Breaking news, though, I wanted to get this to you guys as soon as it happened. Just now dropped. John Jones is retiring from the sport of MMA and from the UFC. It's massive news whether you like it or not One of the greatest of all time is done All right folks today we are watching the press conference from Canelo Crawford If you guys didn't see it this morning from the kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Starting point is 00:12:50 Canello versus Crawford's first press conference went live One of the more interesting things about this was it was a collaboration effort Look at this the WWE streamed it the UFC streamed it The Zone streamed it the ring magazine streamed it Turkey Alice Shake streamed it. It was everywhere. This was insane. And this truly shows you like the flex that Turkey and TKO boxing, or I guess it's going to be called Zufa boxing, are putting out into the boxing world right now.
Starting point is 00:13:18 For decades now, boxing's most formidable opponent has been, well, boxing. Not the fighters, but the business. Negotiations that prove treacherous. The theory broken and fragmented. You can't make the fight. that everybody wants us. Oh, see what I'm saying? They're coming out swinging right away, dude.
Starting point is 00:13:49 We want to make sure you guys get the fights you want to see, and it ain't been happening for the last however long. Terrence Burr! Okay, Todd. Saoule Canelo, Navarra. His Excellency, Turkey, Al Al-L Sheikh. I don't know why they put me here.
Starting point is 00:14:08 I want to be in the side of Crawford. Dismillah. Dang! I know he kind of. He kind of always says who he wants to win, but he's just coming out right in Canelo's face and be like, yo, I don't know why they put me on this table. I want to be over there. Dang. Okay, so Turkey rolling with Bud, okay? There were some negotiations between Turkey and Canello for a while. And even before that, there were back and forced between the two of them. Maybe Turkey's like, yeah, I still
Starting point is 00:14:34 ain't over that. I'm bringing this man to beat you. So if Turkey rolls with Crawford, Dana White, big Canello fan. And by the way, where is Dana? Where is Dana white? We need that, we need that Dana introduction that Dana gave Connor. He needs to get up at that podium and go fucking crazy, dude. I hate Tom and Jerry's kinds of boxing. I am sure they will deliver for me, smashing face and blood. And this is the boxing.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Oh shit. No Tom and Jerry. I want you smashing face and give me blood. Let's go. Turkey's tired of the Tom and Jerry. He's tired of the running. And again, people had an issue. with this because, you know, all Turkey's never fought, whatever. He is simply saying under his platform, under Riyadh season, under the Ring magazine,
Starting point is 00:15:30 he doesn't like seeing those fights. So he is going to put on fights where he is essentially ensuring that that's not going to be the case. I don't want to force to be having ring 12 by 12 or something like this to have something like this big fight. If you don't stop playing around, I'm going to make the ring a 12 by 12, dude. He will be boxing in an actual box. Can you imagine though? Bro, you can't even breathe in there.
Starting point is 00:15:55 This is it. Welcome to your world title fight. Asa-salam ala-a-uh-Barakato. Next time I want the question in English, please. And start with international media, please. Turkey is not playing around, dude. He is out here just laying down the law. Question for His Excellency.
Starting point is 00:16:16 You said many times now that you don't want any more of these Tom and Jerry fights. where one fighter is chasing the other one? Is that cop? What is your plan to kind of stop these fights? We will not have him anymore. This is the first thing. The second, we will have in this fight and the next fight, bonus for K.O. This fight and the next fight bonus for KEO.
Starting point is 00:16:38 So I assume he means, I'm not really sure. This fight in the next one, the next Canelo fight? This is a little bit outside of the realm of normal boxing procedure. But if you come from the MMA community, you know this is a pretty common thing. You're starting to see a little bit of the Dana White influence, right? That's got to be a Dana idea. But I'm going to be honest, between Canello and Crawford, they're probably already making a ridiculous amount of money.
Starting point is 00:17:00 So this has to be maybe more for the undercard. But again, it obviously could qualify for Canello and Crawford, but I doubt they care about a CO bonus when they're probably making more money than they ever have. Social media speculation will say about when this fight is going to take place. Can you be Pacific? Yeah, we saw Oscar Dale Hoyer. Can you be Pacific? I love H.E., man.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Hey, listen, H.E., you need someone to be Pacific. I'm on that Pacific time all the time, you feel me? Yeah, we saw Oscar Dale Hoyer trying to say that the fight was going to take place maybe in the daytime. Oh, okay. This is what I want from you to say his name. Yeah, I decide with Dana White to have a breakfast in MGM at 10 a.m., inshalla. Then we will go to the arena to have the fights quick. and after that we will go dinner to Carpon
Starting point is 00:17:51 and in the night we will watch conjourning because it will launch in September Oscar Deloia waste my time with this question There's a lot to go through here Cop asked the question about what Oscar El Jolla said Let's see if I can pull it up Why is it that Canelo has to fight during the day on Mexican Independence weekend
Starting point is 00:18:11 and UFC with a roster of names I've never heard of is going on prime time He's fighting in Riyadh, and now he's fighting during the day on the biggest weekend in boxing. This is what A.C. was upset about. Okay, so this is what Oscar was referring to. He was trying to leak the news that this fight would be during the day. And then Turkey essentially is trolling Oscar saying, like, yeah, me and Dana are going to have breakfast at 10 a.m. At the MGM, then go and have the fights, then wrap him up real quick so he can go.
Starting point is 00:18:40 I think he said watch a movie later. I don't know. He said something about the conjuring. I'm not exactly sure. But he's essentially trolling. Of course, this is in the peak. This is the boxing, the sport number one in the world. This is Canello and Crawford. So there you go. He said this is the peak. Of course this is in the peak.
Starting point is 00:18:56 I need to mention why we choose Netflix. Netflix is the big platform. Second, if you ask about the numbers of the subscriber and the baby review, oh, let's see the record. In that time in 2015, 2013, the internet and the piracy was not like now. Now is the best options to go with the big platform And I think this fight will have the big record around the world And we will show the world what is real boxing Especially in Netflix, we will show them what is the real boxing Oh, okay
Starting point is 00:19:37 Taking shots once again We'll show Netflix and the world what a real fight is The only other fight that's ever been on Netflix the first fight ever on Netflix, take Paul Mike Tyson. He also said something there. It's a losing battle to try to continue to put on pay-per-view events when kids at the age of 13 understand the Internet better than some of the companies trying to put them behind a pay-per-view wall.
Starting point is 00:19:58 You're going to start seeing more and more, and it should have, honestly, it probably should already happen by now, but you're going to start seeing more and more streaming service boxing promotions, matches, companies, and less and less pay-per-view. And make no mistake about it, Turkey, Dana, they want to beat this number. They want to beat 108 million live viewers globally and 65 million concurrent. They want to do it.
Starting point is 00:20:22 Thank you so much. And I will make the legend continue. Thank you. All right, Turkey's out. Hey, what the hell? True, Jordi. Canello, welcome back to Riyadh. Of course, the last time we saw you here fighting under the here in the kingdom under the Riyadh banner,
Starting point is 00:20:45 you fought William Skull. What were your impressions of that fight night and that. fight itself. You mean William is cool? Yes. That fight, the whole event. You think that was a fight, no. That's a deception for me because, you know, I come to fight, but you need to have both fighters think the same, right? English speaking, Canelo is going levels up in his game, dude. The hooked on phonics is working. This man using words like deception. It's over, dude. You heard his excellency saying no more Tom and Jerry, no more running, but you're moving up two weight classes. It's not going to be smart for you to stand there and hammer it out with this guy.
Starting point is 00:21:24 So how do you kind of balance that, not running, but being elusive in fighting Canella? However, I got to fight. I'm going to win. Simple as that. I'm not going to let somebody else force me or tell me how to fight when I've been fighting my whole life. I won't be running. You know, I could tell you that. But I will be, you know, doing a lot of touching. Hey, yo! No, I'm playing. No, it's a decent political answer.
Starting point is 00:21:53 He's essentially saying, listen, no one can tell me how to fight, but you're not going to see me run. He's like, that's not something I do. I'm going to fight the way I want to fight, but I'm going to be in there putting hands on it. He said he's good, but he's no Canelo. What can you do that Terrence cannot do? No, don't give me wrong.
Starting point is 00:22:09 He's a great fighter, like I say, he's no Canelo. He's good, but he's no Canello. Dang, that kind of hits. They only focus on my power, but I have more than that. This fight is going to be one of my best fights in my history, in my record. And I'm very excited. I'm very excited, motivate, because this is all about, this is all about, I want to make history, and I'm very excited for this fight.
Starting point is 00:22:37 He said people think I just got power now, and that's all that's going to be the difference, but I'm going to show all the aspects of my game. I hope so, because it's not that people think that Canello just. has power. He has told people for the latter part of the last three years that the priority in his game has been his power. He's been flat-footed, standing in front of guys walking him down and throwing big-time power. He hasn't been setting up shots as well. He hasn't been moving his feet as much. He hasn't been doing much on the catching counters as he usually does. I want to see every aspect of the Canelo game. He's not going to beat me. Don't worry about it. He's not going
Starting point is 00:23:09 with me. Don't worry about it. I think this fight is going to be in the books of the history of boxing for sure. That's for sure. For sure, them bells coming with me. They're coming home with me. I'm telling you right now. You can see it, but you're going to be, it's going to be difficult. You take it to you. I'm taking them. And ain't nothing you're going to be able to do it about it come fight. And I know Turkey's injured. Okay, bud. Yeah. This is what I was talking about. Let's get some intensity in here. I know Turkey's in your corner. I promise. But look, look, it's going to be very difficult. He's going to be so mad that day. Believe me. I know Turkey's in your corner, but he's going to be mad that day. Okay, Canello. Canelo using Turkey's own words against him. Look at him. Like,
Starting point is 00:23:56 yeah, I know he's in your corner. I get it. He brought you up here to beat me, take my belts. I get it. But both of y'all about to be mad. Yeah, this is what we wanted. Now here comes Dana White. Dang! That's what we need, dude. I see you. You see I'm different. I see you too. You see I'm different than all the other ones.
Starting point is 00:24:16 I see you. You don't know different. You're nothing different. I'm different. Nothing different. I'm different. We'll see. You're going to see.
Starting point is 00:24:23 We'll see. We'll see. We'll see. You know what is interesting about this whole thing is that Canello looks at Bud Crawford like you've never made this weight. You've never jumped weight classes like this. And I have. Both guys are acting as though they have something up their sleeve that neither guy has seen before ready for. Some people said he should have done a better job cutting the ring off.
Starting point is 00:24:41 It was the fewest punches ever landed. Did you see it that way? Damn, Todd. I'm not here to talk about his past fights. I'm here to talk about his present fight, and that's him versus me. And that's what I'm here to talk about. Me versus him, not him versus any other his previous opponents. Do you expect him to run like a lot of people?
Starting point is 00:25:03 I have not. You don't think so? I have not. I have not because I think people deserve a good. good fight. Or is anybody like Todd is acting like people are saying Terrence Crawford's going to run from Canello. Who has said that? This fight is in Las Vegas. Obviously there's going to be a huge Mexican crowd there for him. How confident are you that the judges will give you a fair shake after the end of the 12 rounds? Listen, I can't focus on the judges. I just got to focus on.
Starting point is 00:25:29 How sad is that that that's a question in this sport? How fucking sad is that, that we even have that in our minds when it comes to a fight? Controlling what I can control. inside the ring and that's, you know, going out there and winning the fight decisively. You're bulked up now, you're bigger than ever. Do you feel stronger? Do you feel like you can knock Canelo out? Man, listen, like I said before, any fighter can be knocked out. Canelo got a granite chin. He's tough, he's durable.
Starting point is 00:25:58 You know, we've seen him hurt a couple of times, but not to the point where, you know, it's not respected. But given the right circumstances, anybody can get knocked out. Who would you say is the toughest opponent you've ever faced? And where would you rank Terrence? No, he's one of the tough fighters I'm going to face in my career for sure. He's a great fighter. I have many, many great fights in my career. Toughest fighter that Canello ever faced was Floyd Mayweather.
Starting point is 00:26:29 If you're talking about toughness, that's a different thing. But the toughest fight he's ever had is Floyd. Bivol's second and Triple G. Honestly, you could put Triple G and Bivel right on the same platform. But Floyd, it was domination. What he did to Edgar Berlanga, Floyd did to him. And Terrence, the same question for you. I guess a lot of people will be showing up from Omaha in Las Vegas for that weekend.
Starting point is 00:26:47 What's your message to your fans do you take on the biggest challenge of your career? Listen, I just tell them, you know what I mean? Suit up. We're about to bring some more jewelry home, you know, and it's going to be an exciting day for boxing. History will be will be made. Terrence Crawford will be. first male boxer three-weight undisputed champion of the world. That's kind of getting slept on in this whole thing is that Bud has a chance to be three-weight
Starting point is 00:27:14 undisputed champion. That's crazy. Now you understand why I wanted to jump. I mean, granted, it's also Canello, it's also the money, but the accolade of being a three-division in the male scene, yes. Three-division world champion is none. And this is what it's all about, ladies and gentlemen. This is what they are... It looks like a deadlifting belt, son. belt that Canello has over there we spent a hundred thousand pounds for this belt we up the ante wait the belt that's on Canelo's table was a hundred thousand pounds that's the one they gave him after the skull fight right okay so they took that one and now they made even a new one as well to a hundred and
Starting point is 00:27:56 forty thousand pounds this is by oh my god a hundred and forty thousand pounds how much is that in usd a hundred and eighty eight thousand dollars you know the ring magazine out here flexing canelo alvarez terence bud crawford are the two very best fighters of this era but there can only be one and only one of them is going home with this belt saturday night september 13th in los vegas watch it live on netflix i thank everyone for coming out see you in los Vegas on the law I saw this on Twitter Canello walking a little past even here to get to Crawford
Starting point is 00:28:42 He didn't set up in the middle here He walked a little bit past even to get to him Some intensity What we like to see Canello does look you know a little thicker A little thicker traps a little bigger You know I'm saying arms look a little bigger Okay so maybe maybe canello is a little bit bigger
Starting point is 00:29:01 Once in a lifetime ladies and gentlemen Give it up for Terrence butt Crawford And Canello Alvarez. We'll see you Sunday. There it is. The first press conference in the books. Listen, Turkey Alasjay came out right away, set the tone and said, listen, no more Tom and Jerry fights.
Starting point is 00:29:22 We want to make these big fights again, talking about this one and potentially in the future on Netflix. Put the message out there that he wants us to be the showing two Netflix in the world of real boxing on Netflix. Obviously taking a shot at Jake Paul, took a shot at Oscar de Aloha. And I even said, I'm on Team Bud Crawford, which is why we need a representative for team Canelo. We're not talking Eddie Rinozo.
Starting point is 00:29:42 We're talking big Dana White. We need to see Dana White in these pressers. He's supposed to be promoting the fight. I know he's got UFC fight night tonight, or this weekend. But I want to see him in either New York or Vegas. I need to see Dana, red Dana, coming out in support of his favorite boxer, Canello Alvarez. And listen, this was a nice intro presser. There wasn't a lot really said, but you saw some intense moments.
Starting point is 00:30:05 You saw when they started talking about belts and buds like, I'm leaving with your belts. Ain't nothing you could do about it. Canello's like, you're good, but you're, you're not. not me. I don't care how much turkey wants you to wins. I'm upset in everybody. But then the face off itself, intensity, no games. It's now time to get this fight build going. We'll see what happens. I guess in New York on Sunday, we'll cover that one as well. And what happens as far as the fight's concerned? The big question everybody has, the size difference. That time, Canneau did look a little bigger, a little stronger potentially if I don't have those answers. So, I guess we'll find out.
Starting point is 00:30:36 What is wrong with Connor McGregor? Legitimately, what the fuck is wrong with this guy? I just pisses me off. How does he go from videos like this? He's up here training with his son. That's how steep that hill is, folks. All right, champ, line up. Ready to go. Yeah, I'm going to fall exactly with that.
Starting point is 00:30:57 Is it? Yeah, yeah, and do you like it? I'm not going to lie, that laugh might be the underlying demon that Connor McGregor suppresses around his family coming out for just a short bit. Like it? Because it's like a real race. Because he's bipolar?
Starting point is 00:31:12 I don't think you can just call it. We want more pressure, yeah, there's not enough pressure on us. Put more pressure on us because it's light work. Right, let's go into your position. Three, two, one, go. Come on. Go, go, go, go, go, go. Fast, fast, fast, fast, fast.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Fast, yes, there you go. That's the pace. That's the pace. Come on. That is gone, come on. Come on, come on. Come on, come on. Come on, come on.
Starting point is 00:31:33 All the way, all the way, all the way, all the way, all the way. All the way, all the way, stay strong. Stay strong. Stay structured. Let's go, push, push, push. Get it out of you, come on. Get it out of you. Go, go, go, go.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Go! It's a long-ass run. He goes from doing something like that, and you even see D Devlin with the hard eyes, and everybody's like, nice, good work. He's like, put more pressure on us here. No, the North pressure, cause his light walk. He's a psycho, but also, he's doing this shit. Now it is the Sun reporting, but, I mean, this is clear video evidence. Conra Greger, floors a man with two punches in some club in Ibiza.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Talking to the fella, boom, a little slap, and then the left hand over the top, and there goes the guy flying. Guy said something. Connor didn't like, boom, a little slap, and then a punch. What could the guy have done, honestly? I see people in Chasana, maybe the guy did something to warn it. What? What could he have done? Is that me or does it look like True Jordi?
Starting point is 00:32:40 If Connor keeps growing like a good boy and gets some inches of height, as well as his massive HGH frame, he could look like True Jordi. Probably a Habib fan. You don't get, listen, if you're Connor McGregor and you've had this many issues outside of the cage slapping the old man, punching people taking phones, stomping them, doing all this other shit, it gets to a point where it's like you have to know you're the celebrity in the room. You have to know that motherfuckers are going to try to push your buttons, dude. So what, someone comes up and he's like, ah, Habib beat your ass.
Starting point is 00:33:10 Remember in Vegas a couple weeks, like it was a couple months ago, he spit on the guy and he told him, he's like, I spit on you. You have to realize people are going to troll you forever. Not saying that it's right for a guy to come up and talk shit and walk away, but for Connor to start punching people after they say something he doesn't like is also not right and worse. The old man didn't even do nothing. Old man was just sitting there. It's not like he gave the guy another chance where he slapped him and was like, say it again.
Starting point is 00:33:44 No, he slapped him and then dropped the left hand on him. I'll ask you guys this. If you're that guy, let's say the punch doesn't even hurt, right? Let's say he's not even hurting you with the punch. Do you flop? Do you take the slap and then he hits you with the punch and then do you just like flop over and and like hope that you can sue him. Is that, is that where we're at?
Starting point is 00:34:01 It's society. Because it looked like that's, I mean, the dude fell. And he for sure got hit with a big time shot. Pullback counter right. All right. I'm sure your pullback counter right is going to work on Connor. I'm punching back. I think I could win.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Yes. Rolfo Pilato. Facts, dude. We're pulling a ballado out here. Fuck here. He feels so privileged, thinks he can punch anybody he wants. I mean, yeah, this is just a bad look. Again, from Connor McGregor.
Starting point is 00:34:28 What are we supposed to say at this point? I wonder what the guy said to him. It probably had to do with Habib. You know, that's probably the only thing I can imagine that would set him off that quickly. Or like Mick Chicken or like, you tap like chicken, some dumb shit. But still, yeah, I'm not surprised. It doesn't surprise me.
Starting point is 00:34:49 It's just another long line of like Connor being an idiot. Damn, that dude did hit the floor. Oh my God. Griger's then shielded from clubgoers by his own friends Okay Then what happens Then we just stand there and it just kind of goes back Your wife is MEDAMs hi baby
Starting point is 00:35:12 Someone said that man Terrence McKinney what the hell That man gonna get paid for fighting Connor before Chandler Not defending Connor here because nothing really can justify this But it got to wonder what the man said to him If the first thing that we ask is what did the guy say to him I think we're thinking about this the wrong way Not to excuse the guy for just popping up at the mouth and saying some crazy shit,
Starting point is 00:35:32 but he didn't physically put hands on him, at least not in this video. We didn't see anything like that. Someone says something you don't like. You can't haul off and assault him, dude. Not how the world works. And Connor has probably had a ton of, you know, civil suits that he's had to settle for doing shit like that. We probably don't even know about some of them. He probably said something about his kids.
Starting point is 00:35:50 Why? Why are you keep spamming? He probably said something about his kids. What would this guy walk up to Connor McGregor and be like, your kids are shit? Like, why would anybody do that? Why would, you guys are saying he talked about Conner's family. Who? What?
Starting point is 00:36:03 Why? Maybe the guy was drunk. So when you get drunk, you go up to, if there's a celebrity near you, you start bad mouthing their kids? No, dude. The more likely option is he said something about Conner's fighting ability or Habib or his whiskey or things that Conner's known for. Not like, hey, fuck you and your kids.
Starting point is 00:36:24 And even if, and even if he did say that, new combo starter. even if he said something about Connor's wife you still can't punch him in the fucking face I'm not saying that the guy's right for doing it if that's what happened but you can't you can't assault people for just saying things to you the guy has absolutely no reason to say anything about his kids exactly you guys are making up a scenario dude
Starting point is 00:36:43 unless this is like some fucking Kenahan Irish mob thing that Connor has I've heard at least got some loose connections to potentially which is again another seventh layer of hair yeah he probably said something about the whiskey or something about Connor's fighting a bit I know you guys are fans of Connor. I am one of the biggest American-born fans of Connor McGregor.
Starting point is 00:37:05 This is just the truth. I loved Connor McGregor. I loved his fight style. I loved his attitude. I loved his commitment. I loved all of it. I loved the whole story. But you have to call a spade a spade.
Starting point is 00:37:15 The guy, when he gets liquored up, when he's out at a club, I don't even know if it's liquor. I think it's just Connor's natural ego that comes to the surface and the liquor helps to get there. Because you can blame the liquor. You can blame the c-a-and-you-you-blame. And you can blame the drugs all you want. But at a certain point, they're just a reflection of the personality type you've become.
Starting point is 00:37:33 Like old Connor was not like that. Old Connor, when I say old Connor, I mean before money. You can say money did it to him. I don't know. But ego, even in the face of like people not believing in him, wasn't that. When he had a little bit of money and he started developing an ego and started to be around fans and people that, you know, outside of just Ireland, this stuff started happening more and more. Really when he started losing.
Starting point is 00:37:54 and people started heckling more and more. Maybe the guy handed him the wrong Coke. Money just showed Conner's true colors. I don't know, man, because I don't think that money enhances something you already are sometimes. I think it can turn you into something that you weren't before. Like, I think money changes people. I really do. I think that it can be mitigated for sure,
Starting point is 00:38:16 and you can still be the same person you always were. But I think having that amount of money and a lack of supervision or a lack of trustworthy people around you, to keep you grounded can change you yeah punching the old dude in the bar least we forget this one i'm sure this old guy said something about his family too right nope just did not want to drink connor's whiskey and connor hauled off and punched him facts wage changing i think i'm changing for the better i'm in a committed relationship trying to take care of my family all of that Connor could have killed him low key Connor just fell into a dark place and hasn't gotten out of it i mean did he fall into a dark
Starting point is 00:38:56 place or did he walk into it willingly? Because he's had ever opportunity to change his trajectory and how he is either perceived in the public or the things that he gets himself into. These are, these are decisions. You know what I mean? When he threw that dolly through that bus, he wasn't thinking about the people on the bus. He was thinking about revenge. It was a decision. Punch that old dude. He wasn't thinking about fucking anything, I guess, but rage. And he was embarrassed, I guess. I don't know. This thing, same thing. Embarrassed probably. Conner could probably, no joke, I'm not a huge believer in therapy for everything, but Connor could use therapy, I think.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Definitely. Because I think he is the macho, bravado ego of Connor McGregor won't allow him to accept what's happened to him in the second part of his career. I think that's what it really is. And all this pent up like, I have to maintain that person that I was before. I have to maintain this invincibility to himself
Starting point is 00:39:50 because no one else believes it. That he got to believe it. Wade, you also defecate in the streets. I do. streets of Orange County. Connor's going to be on the therapist. But like think about it, he still won't accept he lost to Habib. He won't accept he lost to Dustin Porrier and got knocked out by Dustin Porriere. Let's not forget that Connor got knocked out cold, slumped on the floor by Dustin Porier. I don't think he accepts that. I only accepts the Abib loss. I think those things
Starting point is 00:40:16 still probably eat at him because if you strip everything away from Connor McGregor, one thing you could say about him is he's a fighter. Wade, let's not act like it wasn't a robbery. Yeah, he's a fighter. And that's where all of his pride is. You think he changed after the Floyd fight? I think he got a little bit more complacent after the Floyd fight. Yeah. I think that absolutely, that boxing money made him more complacent
Starting point is 00:40:36 so that he took more time away from MMA. And by the time he came back to MMA, the game had changed. He was obviously not as fresh. He was not as prepared. He wasn't as switched on. It was more revenge that brought him back versus the ability to be the greatest, which is all he wanted to be beforehand.
Starting point is 00:40:52 Dustin Bore made the calf kick blow up after the counter fight. No, that's the thing. is like, yeah, the calf kick, you know, got a lot of attention, but the calf kick had already had attention before that. Before Connor got hit with the calf kick, we had DJ doing it to Henry Sohudo, we had Sean O'Malley getting hit with it, we had T.J. Dillishaw doing it. We had a lot of people doing it before that ever got. Benson was the one that essentially created it.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Before Connor got hit with that, Dustin only started doing it because it was done to him. But when it happened to Connor, more people went, oh my God, look at it. It had already been four years. That's one of the more ironic things about it And the thing that Connor still doesn't do And probably won't because he won't ever fight There went no checks But Connor was in an era of MMA that did not include it
Starting point is 00:41:36 And when he left and started doing the boxing And then he came back and fought Habib once Habib not really known as a kicker That part of the game is something he didn't even spar again He didn't even see in sparring Let alone in a fight Until Dustin Porier brought it to his front door Like oh shit
Starting point is 00:41:50 So yeah man this is just another instance And you get to a point where you're like What do we even think? say. I'm fully done with thinking Connor's ever going to fight again. I think that ship is sailed. But he's talking about wanting to be a politician. And I don't know who took that seriously. Maybe again, his own delusion believes that's going to happen. I've been to Ireland. I've been to Dublin and they don't even like him there. And I hate to say it, but they don't even like him. I talk to people that I'm around, whether it was taxi drivers, bartenders, servers,
Starting point is 00:42:16 servers, workers in retail, anybody I could kind of work it into the conversation. They're probably tired of it because Americans probably ask all the time about him. But I would try to work it into the conversation. This was in 2023 just to see like, do they even like this guy? And the answer was always no. We're embarrassed by him. We don't like him. And that's sad because he was carrying the flag for those people. And now what? He's he's going to run for political office with stuff like this still happening. How can you trust a man? Again, hypothetically, because of course this would never really happen but how could you trust a man to run your country when he can't even run his his life he is so dysfunctional in the way that he he acts and carries himself why would you even think that he's
Starting point is 00:43:00 someone not only to run your country but to look up to in the country it's goofy shit man i really don't know i it kind of worries me too to be like what what's what's going to happen with this guy is he just going to flame out and you know raise his kids and be the old scorn fighter that pushes his son into fighting and does all that, maybe, but I'm not expecting the old Connor anymore. I'm not expecting that when I say the old Connor. If he's not fighting someone that is around the sport, someone that is dedicated to his family and the sport or something, where he's not just a party animal like this and doing stupid shit. I don't expect it anymore though. John Fury 2.0, legit. Looks like that could be where he's headed. No joke. How he hasn't seen jail time. I mean, Connor is well connected,
Starting point is 00:43:41 obviously, in Ireland as well. Super well connected and can probably pay off a lot of of people that would press charges. Why the UFC aren't releasing him makes no sense. It's a lose, lose if you release Connor. Because if you release him, then you don't get to potentially make money off him. And whatever he does in the future, it means that you'll probably never have the opportunity to bring him back. Like, then you give Connor all the control. He went to court for the bus incident. Right. But he didn't go to jail. That's what I'm saying. They stop him from boxing. They stop him from bare knuckle. You don't want to give up that money because then you give Connor control. And Connor can, you know, I don't want to come back. I want to do this, this, this for the rest of
Starting point is 00:44:15 of my career. It's kind of fucked up. I'm not going to lie, but at the same time, that's business. You know what I'm saying? I got nothing else to say other than Connor. Just continues to disappoint. That's really it. Just continues to disappoint MMA fans and the people that cared about his legacy, the people he inspired with his run up to the belt, him winning the belt, two-time champ, all that, but it's nothing new. I expect more of this from Connor. I expect continuous dysfunction and I expect him to end up the old bitter, scorned fighter that never got over the two most impactful losses of his career and it drove him to just be whatever this version of him is. It's sad. I saw a video today or a clip from a video today of Vidal watching his
Starting point is 00:44:59 fight back against Chef Clark with none other than Mr. Drumroll please. KSI. That's right. Mr. KS. Do we not care? Do we care about Logan breaking his leg? Why not throw a parade? I mean, we don't care. Like, he'll be fine. Mr. KSI sat down with Vidal Riley
Starting point is 00:45:20 to talk about Vidal's fight, but also to talk about KSI's fight, which at this point, I want to make clear Vidal fucking goat, you know what I'm saying? Their British champion, about to have another fight coming up. But today's video, I want to talk about KSI, of course, because I want to know what his mindset was off the Tommy Fury loss. We've heard him say he didn't lose it.
Starting point is 00:45:40 We've heard him say he thought he won. But we haven't heard why he boxed the way he boxed. We've only seen that that's what he did, right? Because one of the biggest things that KSI was able to do that others weren't, including Jake, was able to stifle Tommy a little bit, was able to make the fight a little bit more rough and tumble, was able to make it a bit of a slop fest. Because both him and Tommy were very sloppy.
Starting point is 00:46:01 Toppy. And they didn't have the greatest performance, but the fight was close because of some of the things. JJ was doing so I've always asked the question why why was that the approach and is it beneficial for KSI if he is to take the rematch if he is to ever boxing in does he need to switch things
Starting point is 00:46:18 up and when potentially can that happen let's get into it the breakdown let's go take a look chat to lean back from the initial one yeah boom hold that that's the best shot of the fact
Starting point is 00:46:32 yeah yeah yeah so how do you feel yeah so last time you got in the ring was Tommy was Tommy yeah how did you feel going into that last round um
Starting point is 00:46:45 I felt like I was winning yeah and I was like all right I got like try and make a statement yeah it's like score it like
Starting point is 00:46:54 you know this is a big moment I like that mindset by the way if you look if you think back on the KSI Tommy fight the rounds are super murky right
Starting point is 00:47:07 not a lot of punches landed from either guy. I think Tommy had a point taken away at a certain point in the fight as well. And for that last round, KSI has been in a couple different fights now where the last round is the most important round and he tends to make a statement in those last rounds to either pull back even with Logan for a draw or beat Logan a second time
Starting point is 00:47:28 by essentially winning those last rounds or a day last round. And when he needs to make a statement or when he needs to win a moment, he's got the heart do it. So I like the mentality there. Like I got to go and do something. I got to make it happen. Not like, oh, I just got to survive this round and I win. Oh, I just need to box on the outside and, you know, touch him up a little bit and then I win. He's like, no, I need to go win this. I love the mindset. I'm shattered. I'm knackered. I've been bouncing the whole time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I knew if I didn't bounce, bro, he would have just cut the ring off. Because this is what you said. This is what you were saying, because when me and Leon made the video, when we were saying about like why was you bouncing,
Starting point is 00:48:11 where did you be bouncing? Then you was saying that you felt like if you didn't do that, that he would be able to make it, it would make it easier for him. So much easier, yeah. Like you think that threw him off. Yeah, yeah. Because, you know, he's been boxing for most of his life. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:25 So I just knew, like, if I just stood there and, like, fought, you know, with a little bit of movement, he would have just come through with shots. And then I would have been, like, lost. And then that. Well, I mean, okay. What is this? KSI versus Tommy made me pro-choice. Are we for real, dude? What the fuck? This is essentially KSI admitting that he is not technically as good a boxer to be able to compete with Tommy by boxing in the traditional sense. And I kind of like that. That's a little bit of self-reflection to say, you know what? I have to do some things differently to be able to compete at this level. And he's right. He's not. He's not.
Starting point is 00:49:08 not a traditional boxer. He's not someone that's trained this sport for years and years. He's going to have to take, and if you want to call it shortcuts, or you want to talk about it being a different route, he's going to have to do something to even the playing field. And him standing bladed and being a little bit more elusive, you know, the bounce, whatever, but just being in and out, being bladed, and leaving it up to Tommy to try to risk things to get to range, to throw more output, but also be in the firing line longer. is not a bad strategy. There is, however, a peak to that.
Starting point is 00:49:45 As in, if you get good at doing just that and not the fundamentals of boxing, you're going to plateau at a certain level. And once somebody figures out how to handle just an orthodox fighter, then it's going to be curtains, right? Especially if you're going into a rematch where someone has seen it before, this is why I've always thought, you know, KSI as a once in a while boxer can work because if you only see him so much, there isn't a lot of game footage or game tape on him to be able to make a ton of adjustments, right?
Starting point is 00:50:25 But if KSI is continuously doing this and people get more and more tape, eventually you're going to run into a guy that has better fundamentals that understands how to implement the fundamentals, his technique, is training, his experience and figure out very quickly how to shut down one to two to three good things you do and leave you exposed. So this is the only thing that when I come back and I wonder what KSI is going to do next, I don't know how long he's going to be able to get away with this, right? He can get away with it and has gotten away with it up until this point. But when you're relying on, I don't want to call it a gimmick because it isn't. But when you're relying on a specific skill set, and you haven't built the fundamentals to go with that skill set, to be able to change and add new wrinkles to it
Starting point is 00:51:17 and add new wrinkles to your game based off the foundation that you have in the sport, then eventually it's going to let you down. It's kind of one of those things, it's like, your biggest strength is your biggest weakness. What got you to the dance eventually will be what removes you from it. If you stay in too long and if you overexpose it, right? So for KSI, I don't mind the strategy because Tommy had never seen anything like that. He never seen anything like that.
Starting point is 00:51:49 I don't care what he says about, mate, I've spawned people like you in the street, mate. They come out of pubs, mate. No, he's never seen anything like that. But now that he has, it may be and should be a bit more easy for him to navigate. And KSI is probably right. Had he stood there and tried to box without being in and out of range, without being elusive and hard to hit and being lighter on his feet, he probably would have gotten beaten knocked out.
Starting point is 00:52:16 Well, Tommy doesn't really knock out many people, but he probably would have gotten beaten. So I don't mind the strategy. I would just implore KSI if he's going to continue to box that he takes this time off. I know he's got hands of injury, but he takes this time off to get back to the fundamentals, to lay a foundation for what happens
Starting point is 00:52:34 when either I get too tired from constantly being on the move. And again, this was a six-round fight. So a six-round fight. What happens when he goes eight? What happens when he goes 10? Listen, I'm not acting like I can do six rounds and be fresh, because I can't. Fucking, you guys saw me in four rounds. I can't fight for very long.
Starting point is 00:52:55 But I'm also not trying to fight Jake Paul, trying to fight Tommy Freehry, trying to, you know, be at that level. So if that's the case, KSI is going to have to find something to give him himself either some rest time or to fall back on. Because just doing the bounce saves you from being in a Marcus of Queensberry technical boxing match, but it also will lead to his detriment, I think. Who do I think won the fight? I thought it was a draw. I did.
Starting point is 00:53:31 I thought it was a draw. I didn't think that Tommy did enough to win. I thought if anything, KSI had done enough to gain a draw. Sometimes you've got to pretend you didn't read some of these comments. You did. Yeah, Jaden, I don't know. Some people are fucking weird. Anyway, back to it.
Starting point is 00:53:47 He's just there like, I don't know what to do with this. Yeah, it does. And you tell he was getting frustrated. It freezes Tommy a bit, right? It freezes him. It freezes him. This bounce, because KSI can dart and jump in, it freezes him. A draw with a one-point deduction.
Starting point is 00:54:06 Yes. Why is that a question? Go ahead, write your scorecards out, get the fingers moving on the keyboard. I thought it was a draw. But no, for KSI 2, again, your first time against that, it's very difficult to maneuver. One, it's not even the bounce to me.
Starting point is 00:54:28 It's more the bladed stance. KSI can hide his right hand really well with the bladed stance. I'd have to go back and rewatch the fight to rescore it, Bird. But if you'd like to score it, go ahead. Having a lead shoulder hide your back shoulder is so much of an advantage if you can keep it hidden and not get into clinch situations a ton.
Starting point is 00:54:56 They clinched a ton, but Tommy didn't do anything besides jab his way to clinch and then try to release. I don't care how it was scored. I care about how I saw the fight. I looked at it as a draw. I couldn't give a fuck about point deduction. I didn't see anybody do anything enough to win the fight.
Starting point is 00:55:15 It was a sloppy fight that either fighter didn't do enough to win. I couldn't care about the scorecard. part of the fight. Couldn't gave a shit. KSI, in my opinion, didn't lose. But he also didn't look like he did anything to win. Tommy, in my opinion, didn't lose. KSai never really hurt him. There was such a lack of punches thrown and landed. And it looked like two guys that had a sloppy fight and no one really separated themselves. But I didn't think KSI lost. I thought he looked better than I thought he would look.
Starting point is 00:55:53 as well. Bird, like I said, I'd have to go back and watch the fight. You guys get so hung up on, oh my God, how did you score round one, two, three, four, five. It's fucking two years later. I don't know how I scored the goddamn fight. Jesus. What I remember was,
Starting point is 00:56:11 there were very close rounds that most punches were landed either in the clinch as they were being separated or a jab here and there. I think KSI landed the most meaningful shot of the fight early. But it was, it was, that was not a great fight to watch as far as the technique of it.
Starting point is 00:56:30 It was a fun fight to watch for me because it was a moment, you know. It was a moment that I didn't expect to happen. You know what I mean? I thought KSI was going to get overwhelmed by volume and that Tommy was at some point going to learn how to keep himself at range and not smother his work, but he hasn't.
Starting point is 00:56:59 KSai took advantage of the fact that Tommy couldn't just jab and when he couldn't just jab he smothered himself and KSI was right there to try to land in the clinch and then they'd separate and again and again and again and that was kind of it. But before we got off topic because I'm now thinking about
Starting point is 00:57:18 how to score around from fucking two years ago I think that KSI did exactly what his skill set allowed him to do. I wasn't a big fan of the game plan from team shoot fighters right especially the part where they were like let's
Starting point is 00:57:39 let's clench him and hope he hit you in the back of the head that was a bit of an odd one and by the way both fighters hit each other in the back of the head multiple times Tommy was not the only guy that hit somebody in the back of the head so I wasn't a big fan of that
Starting point is 00:57:58 but yeah KSI had to kind of fight that way or he's kind of explaining it there, he would have lost. And that's not a bad thing to admit. To me, that's having some self-introspecting and going, yeah, you know, this is what we had to do because he was going to, he was going to do that. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:58:20 Like, that's not a bad thing to me. But it's interesting to hear him talk about it, because all we've heard him say is, I think I won, you know. And he was trying to establish his job. Yeah. But because I was never really there. It played with it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:36 It's because KSI wasn't there or he was here. Right? There was a very stark difference between, like KSI just never boxed in the mid-range, point-blank. That's what happened. KSI never boxed in that mid-range. He was either clinched range, inside, or out of range completely.
Starting point is 00:58:55 And yeah, that was going to frustrate Tommy because Tommy likes to work in the mid-range too close. It likes to close with the jab. If you're not there while he's closing, and then in between you're there, it's going to fuck him up. It played him. But the last round, you're thinking,
Starting point is 00:59:09 statement. Yeah, I mean, you have to. Did you feel that it was close? Or did you feel that you was winning, but you still wanted to put a statement down? I felt like it was close, but I thought because of the back of the headshot and him losing a point
Starting point is 00:59:25 and, you know, me hitting him quite a few times, especially in the clinch, I was like, okay, I've won this, but I need to just make sure. Right attitude. Perfect attitude, regardless of what you're doing. To be able to go, you know what, I still need to make a statement. That's the right attitude to have.
Starting point is 00:59:48 I like it. Tommy said he brought people in to do what JJ does, but there's not really anybody that does what JJ does that Tommy could bring in, unless he found fucking MVP to come do it. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, yeah. There's me going into a last round here. I'm thinking, okay, I'm winning.
Starting point is 01:00:03 Can. Yeah. I don't have to stop. Just like, let me... I could have. Let's do it. Yeah. I'm good.
Starting point is 01:00:13 I'm good at that. Not a shit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, you didn't even need to do that, but you just do it before. No. If you don't watch boxing, it's just like, okay, he won, but what happened? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I kind of just talk. It's cool. What? Validity. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:32 What have been saying to you, like, in public or online? No, like, The whole everyone's opinion has changed now Okay Everyone's opinion change
Starting point is 01:00:39 everyone's like No, yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah yeah always ready to man dude
Starting point is 01:00:43 Yeah yeah people say that your YouTube but bro trust me you're serious there has been
Starting point is 01:00:48 a flip on Vidal for sure from the from the public like the UK sports public especially there's been a flip
Starting point is 01:00:55 obviously people in this community people in KSI's community uh you know influencer boxing fans in general always felt like
Starting point is 01:01:02 regardless of what Vidal did and the influencer boxing side that he has real talent. I still think he has elite level talent for cruiser weight. But that's, you know, something he has to still go do. But a lot of the UK pundits, right, and former boxers didn't think that way. They thought of him as the guy, the YouTuber that boxes.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Not knowing he was a, I mean, either not knowing or not caring to know that he was a super decorated amateur. Eddie Hearn thought Chev Clark was the better amateur and pro. he got found out you know what I'm saying there's just a lot of people that maybe because of the age the inactivity
Starting point is 01:01:42 that I'll take time off from the sport for a while I don't know the YouTube stuff the music whatever they just didn't see it and the rest of us did we should be vindicated chat
Starting point is 01:01:51 you know what I mean so now everyone is finally with it people are actually like no that guy combust but we've been saying that yeah yeah seven years after you said yeah
Starting point is 01:02:03 we got the British title I don't know. Let's leave him there, man. Yeah, yeah. We don't need him. We don't need him. We don't need him. Okay.
Starting point is 01:02:12 Yeah, he's my mandatory. So he's been making some noise saying he wants to go next. Oh, here we are. This Alois guy, okay. He's my mandatory. Okay.
Starting point is 01:02:22 Yeah, he's my mandatory. So he's been making some noise saying he wants to go next. Yeah, yeah. And I'm like, cool, isn't it? Oh, you're down? Let's run it. I'm ready to get back in the ring,
Starting point is 01:02:32 September. Hard. There's scratch. Sick. September. Hold on a second. Vidal coming back in September? Do you think he has an opportunity to get on the Canelo and Terrence Crawford
Starting point is 01:02:49 Undercard in Vegas? I think for the British title, they may want to do it in the UK, which would probably make more sense. And it's probably just me being selfish, wanting my boy to get a spotlight. But hey, you never know. that's right the you bank and bin two rematch is also scheduled for
Starting point is 01:03:12 September so I just wish he was on Netflix that'd be cool man what a spot but if they're going to put him on that undercard I think that's another great spot for him as well they'd have to they'd have to put him in somewhere like you can't defend the British boxing
Starting point is 01:03:26 title in Vegas you gotta do it in England you got to yeah I don't think I don't think that'd be a bad thing I'm just saying that Vegas car would be nice That's it
Starting point is 01:03:39 So he's and he's got the Commonwealth title Okay So you take that from him Yeah so it'll be a British and Commonwealth title fair Yeah yeah yeah Two belts Sounds good to me But he's on this
Starting point is 01:03:53 Yeah I'm gonna cut the ring down Yeah yeah And I'm gonna knock him out Oh That's what you say I'm gonna cut that ring down I'm like yeah I like it
Starting point is 01:04:01 He's talking that stuff Yeah What's his record? Uh What's it 8 in 1 or 9 and 1. Something that he lost early in his career. Benavides.
Starting point is 01:04:10 Opataya rumored for the co-main on Netflix. Oh my God. There's no way. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, JJ sounds like a hungry, hungry hippo, dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Bro, if that happens, I might shit my pants. If Opitaya fights Benavides,
Starting point is 01:04:31 which Benavita is becoming up from light heavyweight, that'd be another move up, which is fine. fucking beast anyway but oh my lord I would be insane good run since but then he should just continue his run but he wants to trouble me so yeah yeah let's do it let's do it so I had to make sure yeah I addressed him yeah as the mandatory challenge okay sick but yeah man this is a wow yeah yeah it'll be good to see what yeah yeah these highlights. Come on. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:13 And that's a thing, like, there's a huge amount of people who know of you. And, you know, the more times I see, especially when you have, like, fights against, like, the top, top guys. That's what I would be like, oh, shit. That's Vidal? Oh, and then they'll look and go, oh. This isn't KSai's video to copyright strike. This is Vidal's video, but yeah, he probably will. My God. Keep getting, we're just going to keep him. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:38 You're not allowed to do more. Yeah, yeah. successful in this, then you're not allowed to have a YouTube channel. Now every fighter's got a YouTube channel. Yeah. Anyway, it's just that I was the first to do it in this side of finger, Ryan,
Starting point is 01:05:52 but I'd say UK-wise, I was probably the first boxer on this route to invest in socials. Ryan obviously done it in the US. True, by the way, yeah. Without, I mean, other fighters have since gotten
Starting point is 01:06:06 social media and YouTube channels and AJ and those guys, but yeah, I think Vidal might be the first one. The UK here, who is in the briefcase? We do. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. React. Wait, where's the fucking clip about Jake?
Starting point is 01:06:23 No, no, no, so. With the. Yeah, nah. Deceit. Okay, okay. So did you, did you get a chance to see this fight? Did you watch Shib's entrance? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:32 You got to admit it's a good song. In spite of the same. Yeah. So obviously the better entrance was mine. God dang it. Yeah, go out to me. What do you mean? Oh, you're giving us credit?
Starting point is 01:06:41 Are you giving us credit? Are you giving us credit? Well, you got European title? Yeah, you're your first trophy. We were in, I'm in. J.J. Or do you think. You do it on purpose.
Starting point is 01:06:51 I don't do on purpose. All right. Anyway. I was reacting to, me, you and Leon done it. Oh, I gotta get the Jake clip off, dog. No. It makes sense for the video.
Starting point is 01:07:04 Bain. Oh, it's good. We're doing it in the sideman house. Oh, this is sick. Back to a fact. So he's the first. So, yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:15 How about you guys? Bro, that's so. Habit. Yeah, because it's been on tour. Briefcase. Bro.
Starting point is 01:07:22 Help me, chat. God dang it. Someone said search the transcripts. Excuse me? Okay, hold on. Aha, I found it. You always get the, uh.
Starting point is 01:07:42 Leo you're going to have to figure out the way to chop this video are Jake Paul versus Vidal Yeah yeah yeah yeah I'm still getting that I'm still getting that But that's because he's saying he wants to be world champion Yeah, but he's just stupid man It's just so pointless He's saying he wants to be world champion
Starting point is 01:08:02 Yeah by beating my Tyson yeah crazy bro So he needs to I don't know man I don't know I feel like that that That fight is always people always gonna say that Yeah For as long as same way people say about you Yeah, yeah. It's the same for me because he's literally blending the light, like blurring the lines.
Starting point is 01:08:19 So he's like, yeah, I'm going to be world champion. And he's like, yeah, fuck KSI. And it's like, so he's literally, you're like, I'll beat you up. And I'm like, this guy's coming to my section as well. So he's just active in it. He is active. I said this yesterday when I saw the clip for the first time. But KSI is a generational hater of Jake Paul.
Starting point is 01:08:39 Like, that's the truest way to describe that, you know. generational hater. And there's nothing wrong with that because he's a rival of Jake, right? And they've been rivals even before the boxing, the music and everything else. He's just a generational hater. I saw a clip of Jake the other day in Puerto Rico or somewhere
Starting point is 01:09:00 doing a workout talking about, oh, he's too busy crying about his song, crying about his music video. He's too busy fighting off the haters of his music. He ain't fighting me. They both take pot shots at each other, right? It is a little ironic, Because JJ is like Mr. Defy the Odds.
Starting point is 01:09:17 Mr. Test yourself. Mr. Prove everyone wrong. So for him to be like, oh, it's stupid for Jake to want to be a world champ. That's like people saying like, oh, it's stupid for KSI to want to make music. Right? Because that's not what he's good at.
Starting point is 01:09:31 That's not what, you know, he's known for. He's a YouTuber. I don't think JJ would say this if it was anybody other than Jake. Right. I think he would be like, no, go chase.
Starting point is 01:09:41 Go do what you're doing, man. People are going to say that it's impossible. but you can go do it. But because him and Jake are fucking bitter rivals, of course, he's going to have a little bit of haterade ready. You know what I'm saying? Hot and ready. Knees weak arms are heavy.
Starting point is 01:09:57 Type shit. So that's kind of like, you know, all right. A little bit of haterade there. But at the same time, I think JJ also wants the Jake Paul fight. I think that's part of it too. He just wants it. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:10:15 I think he's like, I know, don't worry about that. Come fight me. It's active, but this showed just a good level. The levels. I mean, I'm trying to think. Did you see this when they were doing these people in between the right? So I think that had Ed Sheeran.
Starting point is 01:10:31 That one actually looked like that. Well, so a lot of people were like, oh, my God. That was weird how Turkey and I don't really know. I guess it's because of the whole they don't want to do a ring card girls, but like they had like stand-ins of like Ed Shearin in New York. there was Hulk Hogan. That one's apparently Anthony Joshua look-alike.
Starting point is 01:10:52 It's just like, I didn't understand any of it, dude. One of them was a Snoop Dog look-alike, but yeah, that was an odd part of the whole thing. Can you become world champion without fighting anyone in the rankings? Technically, no. You can't, you can become one by
Starting point is 01:11:08 fighting a contender that's ranked for a vacant belt, or you fight the person that has the actual belt. But the ranking, can be manipulated. Let's not get that mistaken. These sanctioning bodies can just rank people. Devin Haney's ranked at 147 despite never fighting there. Mani Pachial just got put back into the rankings
Starting point is 01:11:28 after however many years off at 46 years old. It can be manipulated. But I think Jake, you know, if he is to become a world champion, he's going to have to fight some really, really tough competition. I still don't think it's possible, but you never know. You never know. because Jake doesn't care about a domestic belt. Being a world champion is what he cares about.
Starting point is 01:11:53 So he doesn't want to take the traditional run to it. He wants to find a way to beat names like Chavez Jr. Potentially, you know, somebody else with a massive name that has a history of being a high-level boxer and then use that to parlay it into getting shoved into the rankings and fighting for a belt. So take shortcuts. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:12:16 I don't think that's like, that's clear to see. If you ask Jake, if he's going to fight for a domestic bell, he's going to tell you no. Of course. I think everybody knows that. Everybody knows that Jake is going to take a shortcut and has taken a shortcut in the sport of boxing. He didn't fight amateur at all.
Starting point is 01:12:39 If he gets to a world title belt, it won't be because he fought number one, two, three, four, five ranked to find his way through that. It'll be because, like I said, he fights guys like Chavez, potentially fights someone like, I don't like this fight, but Javante Davis, and Canello or anything else. But what would you have him do?
Starting point is 01:13:02 You know, like, Jake is a bit of a unicorn. You know? It's not like he can, like, it's almost dumb for him to try to do that. It's almost like, it's stupid for him to try to fight all these ranked guys with a name as big as he is, with one loss being pretty much the end of it, it doesn't make sense for him to run through the gotler.
Starting point is 01:13:25 And by the way, I think a bunch of these boxers would be like, oh yeah, I'd do that shit too if I could. You know, I would go and fight fucking whoever else. If that's how I could do it, then I would. That's the point. Not saying it's the right way to earn a world title, not saying it's the traditional way,
Starting point is 01:13:43 not saying it's even the best way for the continuity of the sport. But that's just, that's what has to be. be done for Jake to even get that shot to me. I don't see him fighting four through one ranked, you know. Yeah, it's kind of the same thing as, you know, people like Better Beav and Daniel Dubois calling Jake out for a fight. You know, it's the same kind of thing. But anyway, there is KSI talking with Vidal Riley about his fight with Tommy Fury, them chatting about him and Jake Paul. Listen, I don't know if we're ever going to get KSI back in a ring.
Starting point is 01:14:27 I hope so, but I don't know. And if he does get back, I still don't think we're getting the Jake fight, at least not right away. Maybe somewhere down the line. Maybe it'll be a Floyd and Manny situation where we get it when they're both way too old and the lack of people carrying are still around. But we'll see. I want to see if KSI does fight for eight rounds how he looks,
Starting point is 01:14:49 if he decides to switch up and stop being so bladed. and, you know, so active on his feet, how that helps or hurts him. And does he, if this time off, right, with all this time he's going to have to recover from surgery, does he go back and work more on the fundamental foundation of boxing? That's what I want to see, because that will take him to a different level. That will take him to a place where he has an advantage of using a technique and a style that's a little different from everybody else. when he combines it with the fundamentals of a jab and other things, I think that can make him a lot more dangerous than he already is.
Starting point is 01:15:33 It's just a matter of will he commit to doing it? Because it's not fun, trust me, to work on the fundamentals. It's not flashy. It's not even a hard workout. It's just frustrating, painstaking, technique drilling to make sure that you don't have to think about it anymore. A jab won't win you fights It absolutely will
Starting point is 01:15:54 I really worry that you guys don't watch the sport I truly worry If you think a jab can't win you a boxing match You're out of your mind Sometimes a jab alone by itself Can win you a boxing match It was W raise bait You motherfucker
Starting point is 01:16:21 Anyway I don't have the answers For what happens next with KSI Or Vidal he's got a fight coming up I hope he wins I hope it's a big spotlight forum, co-main event, something like that. But as of right now, I have no idea what happens next for either guy. I guess we'll find out. Folks, we're back on the way concept presented by The Ring Magazine.
Starting point is 01:16:42 Video that was just dropped about four hours ago, Demetrius Johnson teaches KSI tough lesson in MMA and BJJ, The Mighty Journey. I knew this video was coming out because I work with some of the same people that Mighty Mouse works with on the back end of my channel. So yeah, I was excited about this. I did not know what it would be. I was hoping there would be more boxing.
Starting point is 01:17:05 I don't know that there is or isn't. But let's take a look as Demetrius Johnson took a day and trained with KSI. And then who comes to the door? KSI shows up. What a lot? What's up? How are we doing?
Starting point is 01:17:21 I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I don't, that's probably not KSI's bag. It's probably just the coach's bag. but this is the most ironic image based on the things said about KSI's coaches literally just bad carriers have you ever done any like grappling
Starting point is 01:17:35 or learning any Jiu-Jitsu so I did I did a little bit with Bisming and he just told me a new one right if you're getting now granted KSI has no grappling zero and most of the UK
Starting point is 01:17:51 fight scene for a very long time not that KSI needed to learn how to grapple whatever BJJ is not taught in the UK, or at least not until recently, it was not one of the arts that a lot of British fighters used. Wrestling as well. You get a lot of strikers, a lot of kickboxers, a lot of moitai, even some I mean, more Dutch kickboxing than moitai, but all of that in Europe. But recently, you're starting to see more jujitsu. I mean, even in the UFC, guys like Patty Pimbley, obviously Tom Aspenall's got great jujitsu, but historically, you're not going to see a ton of guys that would be great
Starting point is 01:18:24 grapplers coming out of the UK. Which is why, when Bisbing is throwing you around again KSI has no experience so whatever but Bizbing's big thing used to be hated fighting grapplers but he has enough to still put it on case so he's a little bit smaller than me so I think I've got a bit more of a chance this time okay I'm thinking we try wrestling for that thousand is not like one dollar yeah yeah yeah I've never done them before you got to stay in a bubble they make it boring blah yeah yeah yeah they should have Why did I do any boxing? Not like hard sparring, but like tech sparring. They should have done some of that So we're gonna do a very basic wrestling move. Okay, pretty basic okay
Starting point is 01:19:06 So what I'm gonna do it to you and you're gonna do it to me okay, sure. Okay, it's called a single leg Single leg. I know a single leg. Okay, you know a single right? So I'm gonna grab a single and we do this to work our balance Okay, right? So I'm gonna shoot in boom single and you're just gonna hop around Okay, just gonna hop around keep your balance here, yeah, okay Yeah, there you go. It's pretty easy, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's comfortable getting been sexually assaulted yet. You're not with the one leg back. You're not.
Starting point is 01:19:30 Right. And then now we put this one down. I'm going to shoot in this one. Move around. Okay. This is very basic, right? Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They're very basic of a single lady.
Starting point is 01:19:41 You walk around. So how would you get out of this? There's so many ways you get out of it. Oh, so many. So many. You actually do back clips. Oh, wow. Should be easy with all the bouncing.
Starting point is 01:19:49 Put your foot to the ground. Put your foot to the ground. Put this foot to the ground. Oh. Put it down. Oh my God, he's not strong. Wait. Yeah, like that, right?
Starting point is 01:19:59 What the . So you do you have my foot up? Yeah. Right? I'm going to bring you towards me and then go there like that. Okay, wow. Now I'm here and I'm ready to put the cross face, sense a nap, go for a choke.
Starting point is 01:20:16 I mean, there's so many different things. Or the backflip, you guys just do backflips to get out of it. Alright? So you want to focus on, try to put this to the ground by bringing your chest to the by bringing your chest towards me. So like that. Yeah, but now put your foot to the ground. Yeah, yeah, but you're pushing your butt back.
Starting point is 01:20:33 Don't push your butt back. Bring your hips into me where you push. What like? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right? Okay. Yeah, there's all the, that's the weight I should be carrying. Okay, dude. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:45 You're strong. Grappling strength, by the way, grappling strength is way, way, way different. There can be like strong, physically strong boxers, but like, I don't know, man. I don't know how to describe it. Getting strong and then using that for grappling and the muscles involved with it, you can feel it.
Starting point is 01:21:03 When a guy goes to take you down or gets his hands clasped together and they have like grappling strength, it's like suffocating. Different muscles, tendon strength, probably a lot of it too. Density and maybe in the makeup and like her bone density matters a lot. But it's crazy, man. A lot of it is like forearm strength, back strength. Obviously biceps too when you want to squeeze. But it's, I had a guy.
Starting point is 01:21:26 one time and I was I was like just starting jujitsu just to show me how hard it is to grapple and how you know mhmai fighters or whatever they have these great poker faces he body triangled me which is not really a submission at all right it's just a triangle around your stomach and dude i couldn't breathe my stomach wouldn't expand i couldn't breathe the pressure of it was like not only that my ribs too like it felt like i was going to suffocate and my ribs were going to break he was 260 no bradley martin but this the point remains that's kind of strong strength and that difference, like, it's crazy. Okay.
Starting point is 01:21:59 All right, I want to try something. Freaky as. I want to try and survive. Okay. Uh, from getting choked out. Now, do you want to start from top? Where do you want to start? Because it's all, you get all the thing.
Starting point is 01:22:11 So what's... Realistically, I'd want to start from bottom. I know that sounds crazy. The reason you would want to start in, in, like, you know, bottom half guard or whatever, or just, you know, bottom full guard. If you have any amount of training is because you learn, how to defend yourself off the bottom first in most jujitsu class you learn how to like defend
Starting point is 01:22:33 yourself off your back and get either off your back or to a better position first but if you start and mount and you don't know like jj probably doesn't to stay very close like chest to chest get an over grip get an underhook and hold on for dear life just so you can win the little challenge here then you're going to get flipped DJ is going to buck his hips use the fact that you have no idea how to distribute your weight and he's going to flip you we're standing up back way of survival for me well all the I mean for you yes I mean don't get in the fight with me I guess the best way of survival man for like a minute I'm gonna try and knock it choked out for a minute KSI should have started in half guard top I
Starting point is 01:23:14 think but then again DJ could just literally regain and either regain full or just get his hip out shrimp posture and get up well it might have been the best spot, but KSI should have put his chest on DJ's chest. Just running away. Running away. Running away, yeah. I don't have the tissue tick you down and all that stuff. Okay, wait, all right.
Starting point is 01:23:34 I'll be in full guard. Jiu Jitsu pro start there. Yeah, I mean, the one big knock on Jiu Jitsu is like the butt sitting, but they're used to it. They know how to work offense and defense off their back. They do that little butt scoot thing and then it like almost welcome you into their guard. They want you to be in their guard. That's what you see guys like Krong Gracie in UFC fights, literally walk up to the dude, get his hands together and try to yank him down into his go like he wants you to be in his guard so he can
Starting point is 01:23:59 manipulate it but for someone like jj who has no experience i wanted to say top half guard but i don't know mount mount mount mount i don't know mount is difficult because you have no control of the legs that's why in my guard no full guard so i'm on top of you is that full mount you're full mount you're no dude yeah i'll try that i've done that before let's see okay okay yeah yeah i'm in a minute to survive what did you just say yeah i'll try to you is that full mount uh you want full mount you want Okay, full mount, full mount. Yeah, I'll try that, I haven't done that before, let's see. Okay.
Starting point is 01:24:29 I'll try that. I haven't done that before, we'll see. I assume he means, we'll see, like, we'll see if I can submit you from bottom in one mount, but he's definitely worked from bottom mount, like, he's definitely worked from bottom mount, like, being mounted before. Like, what? Okay. See, immediately, JJ has no understanding of why top mount is advantageous. There's no pressure in the backside of his legs, there's no pressure with his feet, there's no, there's no, chest to chest pressure he's way too far up all mighty mouse really has to do is bucket hips
Starting point is 01:24:59 that's it jay jay jays had no immediately from side control into the arm bar yikes this would a yo it's a crazy pause jj's had no idea immediately now mighty mouse doesn't really buck his hips he immediately goes after His left leg so he gets to his side which is pretty standard He doesn't buck his hips to get there because he might think if I buck my hips JJ might put his hand down and I can get to his arm whatever these immediately goes after the the the lead leg Roll
Starting point is 01:25:45 side control immediately isolate the or any Superiors you want to get choked out oh my light work dude put it on a t-shirt man is Twerking on his head whilst holding his limb sparing him a break God, okay fair fair okay Holy shit He got to tea bags on I'm a trick I'm a little I'm not that good
Starting point is 01:26:10 How long was that? DJ saying I'm not that good shut up yeah right It felt like he was twice my weight It felt like I had Eddie Who on me I did it made no sense you was just so much stronger than me, but I'm a strong guy and he was making me weak. I felt useless. There's a difference between weightlifting strength and grappling strength. I forgot the terminology for it, but it's like useful strength versus like measured strength. You wouldn't look at
Starting point is 01:26:48 DJ and think he could bench press 225 or squat 300, but it doesn't really matter because the strength he has for grappling and for, you know, manipulating position. and, you know, looking for submissions, all that is far greater than anything you can experience by lifting a weight up and putting it down. Unless you're somebody like Eddie Hall or Thor Bjornson or those guys who are so strong, it's like out of this world strong
Starting point is 01:27:11 that they can legitimately lock up some kind of neck crank that has no technique and pop your head off. You know what I'm saying? Let's do it. All right. Fine, fine. Go. Because I use your arms, buddy.
Starting point is 01:27:22 Why is you trying to ride him like a bull? Look at it. What? He does he just think he can use his legs? Look he's like riding him like he's a bull Use your arms hold on to him under hook You're good, you can do you can do this for a living no You have some more That's a mom boy
Starting point is 01:27:43 I thought so that 20 seconds or 17? Yeah, that's a bit quicker a little bit quicker No, no I want to try and survive the minute we can do this Okay, okay? I'll leave you survive a little longer okay, okay, no no no so reset Reset. Yeah, yeah. So how long was that? 17 seconds. To 28 seconds.
Starting point is 01:28:03 10 seconds? 11 seconds. Did you ever reset this? Yes. But you're not trying. Try to survive. Yeah, try. That's another thing I was going to say.
Starting point is 01:28:12 Like KSI is kind of like not, I don't know, maybe he is trying to survive. He doesn't look like he's trying to survive. He's trying to like make a video and all that, but like actually try. He's just doing stuff. That is true. That is true. Okay. I'll try to let you survive and just see how your body moves on it.
Starting point is 01:28:27 One. Okay, cool. Okay. Okay. You can hold me down? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Thank you. Well, that's what I'm trying to do. That is. Use all of your body. Boom, boom. Go. Okay, there we go. That's a little, okay, I don't know about this position. This man hit him with the cuddle, dude. He hit him with the cuddle, son. Easy sweep. There is. Ah, oh, look that easy sweep off one foot. KSI doesn't post with his other arm either.
Starting point is 01:28:57 DJ sweeps fairly easily with his left foot, pushes off the ground. KSI is holding on for dear life. Should use this hand to post on the ground and stop DJ from sweeping him. He's literally attached to him. Like a fucking front-facing backpack. KSI has no idea what he's doing. That's why he's found. No.
Starting point is 01:29:19 He's here. Wait. He tried to get, here we go. Get to a hip, KSI. Uh-oh. Oh, anyone, this one's your arms. Let's go those way. What kind of choke is this?
Starting point is 01:29:31 Oh my God. It's gonna hurt a little bit, but you'll be fine. Here we goes. You good? Yeah. Easy. Holy-God. Okay.
Starting point is 01:29:41 All right, let's do some film study breakdown here. So KSI, they've got in full guard. DJ's immediately gonna get rid of the legs. Get into half guard. He's already pinned. One of KSai has an underhook here, but he doesn't know what to use it. He's got an underhook. He needs to get to it.
Starting point is 01:29:56 hip frame with it. Wait. Instead, he gives up essentially everything in one moment. And now the underhook works against him. How you want this? This way. Because now he's going to use it as an arm triangle. Let's go this way.
Starting point is 01:30:10 What kind of choke is this? What a fucking triangle? Again, KSI even here, nice little triangle choke. KSI starts kind of just like flailing about. If he would drive his hips and his feet into the ground and buck here, he could get DJ off. That choke is this? You know, he's just kind of flailing. about with his lower body.
Starting point is 01:30:28 It's gonna hurt a little bit, but you'll be fine. He doesn't know to try to stack DJ there either, which is another thing he could do is try to stack DJ's own weight on top of himself. Try to not let him, I mean, you'll still get that triangle, but hopefully it'll alleviate it some to where you can start working on getting the legs free off of you. You're good? That's a rough one, though. Triangles are nasty.
Starting point is 01:30:49 I don't know if you... You don't have a lot of time. Once it's locked up, you do not have a lot of time before the freaking darkness starts closing in. Cool. You're not referring you, you wouldn't be this close? No, no, no, no. Well, we gotta do the thing. Oh, okay, here you go.
Starting point is 01:31:02 Okay, there you go. Okay, cool. Let's go. I got to get you? Yeah. What do my hands going to be, bud? Oh, he's got to be fat. You see, if we're boxing, you know, I gotta make you stop, I got to hit.
Starting point is 01:31:28 I truly believe KSI is doing this for content. But then again, I gotta remember that he doesn't have any grappling experience. I'm telling you all right now. now dude again I'm not trying to toot my own horn I'm lasting a minute I look at it like you would treat this like someone's attacking you you would fight arms fight hands you know I think he tried it like I would try to treat this like life and death but I think he's doing it more like to be like oh content you know okay ready again all right boom go oh see you a dumb ass you're
Starting point is 01:31:56 good oh nice sweet look at this man yeah what's the what's the cater roll there we're doing That's the worst thing you could do. 10 seconds. Here, how about this? New game. New game. You try to get up. There we go.
Starting point is 01:32:18 That's what I want to see. Let JJ try to get to his feet. No submissions. Because this is getting embarrassing. Just DJ tries to hold JJ down. In a real life scenario, unless you are a trained grappler. One of the hardest things to do is to get someone off of you. If you've been knocked down, if you slipped and fell and they're trying to hurt.
Starting point is 01:32:37 And that person most likely is not a trained grappler, so they're trying to throw punches and just stay, you know, in your face. Okay. You want to speculate up. There you go. And get on your toes, right? Oh, get your hips off the ground. Now put your weight on me. There we go.
Starting point is 01:32:53 Okay. That's KS size weight. Okay. Okay. That's how you hold somebody down. Okay. Right? But when you're putting your hips on the ground, then the ground is carrying your weight, not me.
Starting point is 01:33:03 Right? Oh, okay. So that's why, you know, when you're even on the mount, you're not putting your weight on me. You're kind of like getting it to the ground where I can just move. Okay. So that's why I'm able to move so easily. Okay. But when you put your weight on me, put your weight on me.
Starting point is 01:33:16 There we go. Now I have to, you know, I can still get out, but I have to work harder to get out. Okay. Okay. Okay. So 20 seconds. 20 seconds from here? From here.
Starting point is 01:33:28 Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay, because I'm gonna get on your face now. I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say that. Okay.
Starting point is 01:33:37 Okay, I have to get you walking, all right? Okay, understood. All right, I'm gonna go. That means, KSI, bury your fucking head in his chest right now. That's what that means. Are you ready? You're not doing it.
Starting point is 01:33:47 Go. There we go. That's what he needs to do. Perfect. That's better. But again, the explosion's crazy. This is why I don't look at that frame right here. This is how he uses it.
Starting point is 01:33:58 Instead of getting hand underneath. It goes frame here. Fuck with the hips and I'm out. This is why I don't like side control though. This is why I was surprised DJ said side control instead of half guard. Because he can't really defend against DJ's hips or his legs or anything. I think KSI again would be better off posting right here. But at this point he's already lost the position. Because now we're hips and now we're essentially 50-50 on your side on your side.
Starting point is 01:34:24 Yeah. Yeah. Dons is off. Now I'm so going to chuck you up. Triangle. Beautiful. Right. So your your feet went like I could feel right. You try to get up. Get up. Get me off you. Yeah, he goes from half guard. Let's see. Be off you. Hips. No, other hips. Don't just squirm.
Starting point is 01:34:39 You fucking try and try. I want you to try. Not your arms. I'm sticking. I'm locking my arms. That's how you can bitch. That's all you can bitch. Go! Come on now.
Starting point is 01:34:49 What was that sound? There and out. Yeah. Hips, hips, hips, hips. Yes. Right, and then now I'm going to keep on, hanging on, hanging on, hanging on. Put that there.
Starting point is 01:35:02 Not an effort. He actually tried him. I'm proud. So like when he gets him to this position where he's able to somehow just muscle him off him. JJ needs to immediately get on his left hip. He's still on it, he's still flat on his back and has nothing to push off of. See there, man, you're trying. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:24 He just doesn't know yet. So he's still trying to fight directly off his back. And then now I'm going to keep on just hanging on, hanging on, hanging on, hanging on. Push that there. And I'm gonna, shoot you. Notice how DJ leads with his chest too with all this? Hang on. Push that.
Starting point is 01:35:39 When he gets the grips back, he leads with his chest because he's framing on, or he's trying to frame on DJ's shoulder. He leads with his chest and drives his feet into the ground, chucks him off, boom, we're right back. Here. You actually tried. I'm proud.
Starting point is 01:35:55 Mind you, JJ, do this one-handed. Okay, buddy. Let's not, okay. Let's try some striking. Let's do it. Let's do it. So I've never experienced a kick in my life. Okay.
Starting point is 01:36:06 Well, maybe I have for my brother. But I've never had a professional kick me. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm thinking. I'm not going to kick you hard. Okay. Give me a percentage of.
Starting point is 01:36:17 I'm going to give you. I'm going to show you what it feels like. Okay. I'm going to show you and I'm going to show you what I'm supposed to do. Okay. Make sense? So when I go on the pad. That's all this.
Starting point is 01:36:28 Okay. But imagine. Holy shit. You didn't have all that that weight there. I mean, assuming the pads there. Yeah, but I could still feel it. You can do it a little harder. Oh my goodness.
Starting point is 01:36:38 I just a little. I just like, give me a percentage of what that was. That was like maybe two, three? Three percent. Okay, so I'm not kicking you. I'm just going to, I'm just going to motion like this. I'm just going to the motion. That's how I'm doing.
Starting point is 01:36:54 I'm not turning my hips. This is three. Yeah, he's really not turning his hips over at all. Just literally swinging the leg. That's so nuts, man. What you said? Yeah, this is like. This is like warm out like pop, pop, pop.
Starting point is 01:37:04 Oh, my. This is why guys end up breaking their legs and wrapping it around somebody because they kick so hard, dude. Give me 5%. Okay, so this is sense. That's three, so here's five. Okay, that was, what the fuck is 100?
Starting point is 01:37:22 The hundred is fucking, I'm going. I die. And you'll die, I die, I die. I die. Guys, I want to say, I'll say that's probably 10%, maybe 15%, It's hard to get it because when I'm here, I'm just moving. I'm not even trying to hit hard.
Starting point is 01:37:38 I'm just, ba, bop, bop, boom. Bhab, bop, bop, bop, boom. All right. I'll let me. Here, here's a good kick. Yeah, okay. I look like 5%. He looked like he sped up a tad bit more.
Starting point is 01:37:50 It's just gonna be a good kick. Yep, so that's a good kick. Okay, yeah, okay. And that's as far as I'll go. Wow. Holy shit. And then imagine, imagine we're going, we're fighting. I'm ba-ba-ba-ba.
Starting point is 01:38:04 Well, I'm just doing that over and over again. Over and over. Oh, my God. And hitting the same spot over and over again. Like, I only feel like... You know what it is, too? It's like, think about in boxing terms how you set up your punches. You're one and then you're one-two.
Starting point is 01:38:17 When you throw the one-two, your jab the second time around is not going to be as forceful as it was. The first time around as it was in a single shot. So you use it to get to the two. Then the one, two, three. The one and the two set up the three. And then you add kicks, dude. So you're throwing comments. combinations and maybe the last punch of that combination meant to hurt, but
Starting point is 01:38:36 realistically that you're throwing your three or four punch combo to set up the kick dog and the kick is the big power shot you're waiting to throw that is horrifying bro. I'm sorry man. I was showing him out a kick like MVP has aura by the way. I'm 32 years old saying this but when he walked in the room it was like oh shit the man Here you feel me before JJ came around the best I would say prospect to star athlete that shoot fighters has produced as MVP you know without him that name London shoot it's got some some good fighters they they helped with Derek Chazora's career a little bit but without him that that gym doesn't have the name it
Starting point is 01:39:19 it would have all right I should get one kick without the pad oh yeah no no no no you both it you don't need it no just one little I'll do this one for you really does not need it yeah we'll do a little One little path. Let me let me actually feel it. Hey, touch it. That's hard it. You know.
Starting point is 01:39:42 You like that. Oh my god. What the fuck, bro. Holy shit. Yeah. You can have him with you as well. What the fuck? What the f f.
Starting point is 01:40:01 What percentage was that? I'm maybe like one, two? Get out of here, man. That one didn't even look like DJ tried. It's just instant deadly. Hit him like right in the middle of his shin too, like the strongest part of his shin, right at the freaking middle of his thigh.
Starting point is 01:40:21 Boom. That video is dope. This was a very fun link up. KSI gets to experience what grappling feels like. I don't think that we'll be seeing him on the mats rolling anytime. soon, but DJ once again, killing it in the, uh, in the combat sports content space. Taking all the trips, linking up with all the creators that we want to see. The sick idea, sick video.
Starting point is 01:40:44 I wish I would have done it first, man. Not that I would be able to do any of what DJ was saying, but like training with DJ would have been cool, bro, and I tried to do it last year and we couldn't get it done. But nonetheless, fire video. And the offer is out there, by the way. I've said it. and I'm sticking by it, I will last at least one minute if DJ wants to grapple. $1,000 on the line.
Starting point is 01:41:08 I'm lasting more than one minute. Let me know what y'all think down in the comments below. KSI grappling DJ was a nightmare, but not in the way he normally is. What happens next for KSI? Is he going to fight anytime soon? Is DJ going to collab with Tom Aspinall next? Who knows? Guess we'll find out.
