Starting point is 00:00:00 the Joe Rogan experience train by day Joe Rogan podcast by night all day cheers we're up cheers boys the gang is back we're back love you guys man
Starting point is 00:00:19 love you too love you too it was a good dinner we had a wonderful dinner at Eddie V's and now we're here to see one of the most compelling fucking championship fights in a long time. A really interesting one, man. Well, it's never happened before.
Starting point is 00:00:31 Number one pound for pound versus number two pound for pound. Both in their prime. Both champions. Moving up a weight class. You know, it's the whole thing. Everything. And then Yair Rodriguez and Josh Emmett. Yair Rodriguez is one of my favorite guys to watch.
Starting point is 00:00:44 Killer. Because he, look at that. Look at that jumping round kick. He does like taekwondo shit, but he does it with a guy who knows everything else. That knockout. He's one of the best. Oh, that elbow was amazing. That was nuts.
Starting point is 00:00:57 But he's so dynamic, man. The stuff that he does. He does 360 roundhouse kicks. Remember when he fought BJ? He hit him with a 360 roundhouse kick to the face. Is he the most dynamic striker in UFC history? No. No. Remember when he fought BJ? He hit him with a 360 roundhouse kick to the face. Is he the most dynamic striker in UFC history? No.
Starting point is 00:01:09 He's the best taekwondo style kicker. That's dynamic. Taekwondo does all the stuff that Muay Thai doesn't. But dynamic is everything. Dynamic is who lands the most telling blows. Who's the most crushing? Maybe dynamic isn't the word.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Izzy. Or Pejeta in the future. If his career continues to go the way it is, the way he knocked out Sean Strickland, the way he beat Izzy. Pejeta is a two-division world champion in glory. I mean, he's as dynamic a striker as you're ever going to get. Let me rephrase that. The other cheetah in Wonderboy Thompson. Wonderboy's amazing.
Starting point is 00:01:44 Who has the most different strikes in MMA history? No, no, no, no, no, no. Different strikes? They're significant that he can fuck you up with. You're talking about the whole breadth of the techniques. All the kicks. You might say Yair. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:02:00 You might say Yair. If I'm wrong, I would love to know who's better than him. Well, Wonderboy, when he fought Kevin Holland, Wonderboy, are you just going to have a straight stand-up fight with Kevin? Wonderboy. He's going to light you up. Oh, my God. He's so good.
Starting point is 00:02:12 The difference between a guy that's being threatened with takedowns and not being threatened with takedowns, they made some sort of crazy agreement. But Kevin Holland said, let's just stand and bang. Bad idea. And Wonderboy's like, okay. He's like, hell yeah. I love it.
Starting point is 00:02:22 standing back? Bad idea. And Wonderboy's like, okay. He's like, hell yeah. I love it. How many strikes does Yair have in his arsenal that Wonderboy, that no one else has? Like Emmett doesn't have? That elbow. What is that elbow? The elbow's amazing. Did he make that up? He's very creative.
Starting point is 00:02:38 No, no, I think that's a Muay Thai. It's basically a spinning elbow, but it's a spinning uppercut elbow. It's just an up elbow. No one's ever seen it, right? No one's ever seen it that way. Anderson landed it on Tony Fricklin, but it was a standing up elbow. Remember that? He stepped in. Yeah, very different. If you saw that in a Bruce Lee movie, you'd
Starting point is 00:02:54 be like, okay, he took it too far. Come on, come on. Yeah, it's true. It's too crazy. And I didn't put money on the Emmett, we can, on the Emmett-Yair-Rodriguez fight. I'll take the guy who's doing the meat and potatoes the best over that flashy stuff. Sometimes. Usually unless it's Yair.
Starting point is 00:03:10 Sometimes. Unless it's Yair. But Max Holloway's meat and potatoes. And when Yair and Max Holloway fought, Max Holloway was getting lit up. He wound up winning that fight. It was a very close fight. And it was a dangerous fight. Yair Rodriguez throws wild shit.
Starting point is 00:03:23 And he's so fast with it. Like, he'll be third round. He'll throw a fucking jumping wheel kick. When he was younger when he was younger Frankie Edgar was too experienced. All that flash that Frankie Edgar goes, I'm just going to meet you halfway. I'm going to meet you at a distance
Starting point is 00:03:40 where those kicks don't matter. Took him down beat him up. Yeah, that was Frankie in his prime. And Frankie going down to 45 where at 55 he was always undersized. And young Yair. He was not ready. Now he's MMA savvy, and he's been fighting. He also took... Why did he take so much time off?
Starting point is 00:03:57 Well, you know, I mean, sometimes guys got to reassess. I mean, who knows if it was injuries, who knows what. But yes, but what happened after he came back was he's even better. Is that Max Holloway fight? Yes. I mean, who knows if it was injuries. You're saying with Yair? Yes, but what happened after he came back was he's even better. Is that Max Holloway fight? Yes. I was so impressed. He took some time. He was going to leave the UFC. He was talking to Bellator. Then UFC, at the last second, signed with a long-term deal, and he took time
Starting point is 00:04:15 to find a camp, got his head right, because before, it seemed like there was a bit of a mental issue there. Somehow, he got over that hill. He's a fucking savage. What is going on with Dominic Cruz's suit? What the fuck is happening here? I love it. He's trying to look lit. Look at this suit. He's... Jair Rodriguez, I think, is Volkanov's
Starting point is 00:04:31 biggest challenge at 45. That button is driving me crazy, Dom. Let that button go. He's holding on to that middle button. He's holding on to that one button and the bottom's not button. Should we coordinate with people at home? Yeah, we will when the fights start. So right now we're watching Islam just knock out Gleason Tebow. And now he's beating the shit out of, is that Davi Ramos?
Starting point is 00:04:52 Who he was? Look at how tight that is. Islam is a monster, man. Dude, Islam beat Davi Ramos? Yeah, I believe so. But if you look at this. Didn't he fight Davi Ramos? Yeah, he did.
Starting point is 00:05:02 He did, right? He beat him. But if you look at his strength and schedule. The hangman, I was so convinced he was going to break hangman's arm. I was like, Jesus, Dan, tap. Parker's a savage. Just please tap. He's such an animal, but I'm like, please tap.
Starting point is 00:05:13 Please tap. See, I think I'm one of the rare guys that do commentator stuff for fighting. I think Volkanovski can pull it off. I'm not on the same board as all you guys. We're not on the same page. I certainlyanovski can pull it off. I'm not on the same board as all you guys. We're not on the same page. I certainly think he can pull it off. I want to know. That's what I want to know.
Starting point is 00:05:31 Be a decision. No, I want to see what happens. I don't know. But Islam's so big and so strong, and I'm watching the way he dominated Oliveira. I'm like, God damn. I thought Oliveira was going to cause problems. I really did. Oliveira's so wild, and he's so good standing, and then his ground game is so fucking dangerous.
Starting point is 00:05:48 You've got to mind your P's or your Q's, or he throws up triangles and armbars. And think about it. Makhachev won that fight by striking and then got him down. But the fact that he submitted him, I'm like, God damn, how good is his squeeze? Look how much bigger he is. You know what the key is there, Joe? You said how wild Charles is. You know who's not wild and who's calculated as a motherfucker and has a reach advantage Volkanovski. He has a reach advantage
Starting point is 00:06:09 Yeah, two inch reach of that's crazy. Yeah, look it up two inches. That's so wild He's got very funny this why they for a little bit of time they were doing a leg reach advantage You know and the leg reach is like leg reach they were measuring leg reach like during the broadcast Oh, it's so you see it there. They were measuring leg reach during the broadcast. So you see it there. They do have leg reach on the website. But we don't ever talk about it. But the leg reach, like think of Jon Jones.
Starting point is 00:06:34 That leg reach is giant. It's a giant advantage. Especially the way he uses it. Yes. With that front tee put on there. Yes. He's from here to there. So does Cyril Ghosn, which makes it interesting, that fight. Because Cyril Ghosn throws a front kick from the sideways stance.
Starting point is 00:06:47 So he's in a karate stance sideways, and he throws a front kick off the front leg. It's a twisting kick. It's a totally different front kick. And he stabs you in the stomach with it over and over and over again. It's the toughest fight for John at heavyweight because Cyril's so fucking athletic and technical. So fast. But that grappling's going to be an issue, daddy. In the clinch, good luck.
Starting point is 00:07:06 Don't you think, though, that he didn't prepare for Francis' grappling because he probably didn't anticipate that Francis was gonna grapple him. That fight was probably like, Jesus Christ, Francis is so dangerous on the feet, you gotta be prepared for nuclear bombs coming towards your head. Just get him down. So all your time is striking in that fight, moving and striking,
Starting point is 00:07:22 and then all of a sudden Francis grabs him and just fucking big brothers him and ragdolls him to the ground a lot and just beat him up on the ground. Yeah, but there's a big difference between preparing for a grappler and a grappler who's been grappling at a high level for 20 fucking years.
Starting point is 00:07:36 Like Jon Jones. You can prepare all you fucking want. Right. What are you going to do for three months? Right. It's not going to happen. That's what Khabib said in this fight, and Khabib, they're so confident,
Starting point is 00:07:44 they gave away the game plan. They're going to get in the clinch, wear him out, take him down, submit him. It's not going to happen. That's what Khabib said in this fight. Khabib, they're so confident, they gave away the game plan. They're going to get in the clinch, wear him out, take him down, submit him. It's not the same thing, but Volkanovski was a national champion in Australia, wrestling. And he used to be 220 pounds. He's not a small guy.
Starting point is 00:07:58 He's a very good wrestler. There's no doubt about it. But is he good enough to deal with the size and the fucking squeeze that Islam has? No, is he good enough to get— He's going to get taken down. Guarantee it. I think he's going to get kicked. Is he good enough to get back up?
Starting point is 00:08:13 But I think he's going to get front kicked. But that's— You're crazy. I think what's going to happen is— I like how you're so specific. Front kick. I'm telling you, I think— You got a fucking front kick.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Watch this. You got a front kick. First time ever. I think he's going to front kick him. What the fuck are you talking about? I think he's going to front kick him I think he's going to front kick. So I'm going to make a call. I'm making a call.
Starting point is 00:08:28 I guarantee this. This is my call. Ready? He's going to front kick and box and stand and bang. He's not going to just go right to the wrestling. Because I think he wants to show the world that he can stand and bang. He can't stand and bang. He's too quick. So I'm saying okay, here's my call. Maybe I'm wrong. world that he can stand and bang. He can't stand and bang. He's too quick. So I'm saying, okay, here's my call.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Maybe I'm wrong. He's going to stand and bang. He'll probably kick him. He'll probably front kick him, do something weird. And then he's going to grab him and try to get behind him and ride him back. Let me just correct you right away. Please. He's going to do whatever he thinks is the best way for him to smash.
Starting point is 00:09:03 That's what he's going to do. He's not going to stand and bang for no reason. He's not going to stand and bang for no reason. He's not going to stand and try to prove nothing. He's going to try to fuck that dude up. As fast as he can. And he's not going to be doing it in a way to prove a point. He's going to be doing it because he's a fucking champion. I disagree.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Well, I'm a professional. I'm telling you. That guy is like, he's as fucking rock solid with business as it gets. That's why I love this show. Makachev doesn't take any chances to like fucking prove anything. He just fucks people up. To his point, you know why he doesn't take chances? Because he took a chance, got knocked out.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Yes. Yes. So he takes no chances. That's that dude that Cowboy knocked out. Yes. Cowboy had kicked him out. First of all, Makachev is a very good striker. He's a very good striker.
Starting point is 00:09:49 He's not as good a striker as Volkanovski. I don't know if that's true. Is that true? Yeah. Martins. Adriano Martins caught him with a perfect punch. I'm not professional. I'd like to see that.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Okay, let's watch that fight. Let's watch that fight. You're out of pocket. Martins caught him with a beautiful right hand. You're starting off bad. You do this thing and you revert to it. You know what it's like when you go back to high school and you feel like a loser again? Like, oh, I'm back in high school.
Starting point is 00:10:12 You've been doing so well. Look at this. Here comes the big punch. Check this out. Martins set him up. See how wild he is? Ooh, look at his punches, though. No, look how wild he is.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Makachev is going to be throwing, guys. I think we're saying this. I've been saying his name wrong my whole career. Makachev? is. Makachev is going to be throwing, guys. I think we're saying this. I've been saying his name wrong my whole career. Makachev? It's Makachev. That's how you say it. Look at that right hand. Boom.
Starting point is 00:10:31 See, because he could have gotten down and played the game. Yeah, but he got right back up, so I don't count that. Well, Martins is very good on the ground, too. It's just a perfect right hand. I mean, it's just one of those things. Look at that. I mean, if you're in one of those kind of exchanges where he's moving forward, look how he's moving forward, and Martins literally throws the picture-perfect textbook right hook.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Look at this. Slide away. Look at this hook. Watch this. Boom! Full shoulders, full weight, everything on the chin. But Martins doesn't fight like that anymore. He doesn't take those chances because of that.
Starting point is 00:11:02 But he still works on his striking. He's a very good striker. And I believe he's going to stand and strike with him. What's his record, if you know so much about him? And then he's going to clinch. Tell me his big fights. He's only lost one fight. Tell me the big fight.
Starting point is 00:11:14 Yeah, the one that we just watched, motherfucker. Oliveira. He took Oliveira and fucked him. Yeah, that one fight. What about before that? Before that, he fought. I've seen every one of his fights. Come on, B.
Starting point is 00:11:23 Tell me about these fights. Well, now you're putting me on the spot. Tell me about these fights. You know, come that, he fought. I've seen every one of his fights. Come on, B. Tell me about these fights. Well, now you're putting me on the spot. Tell me about these fights. You know, come on, B. The fight before he put somebody in a- Shut the fuck up. No, I know what I'm talking about. Drew Dober.
Starting point is 00:11:33 That's who he fought before that. That's right. He put Drew Dober, I think, in a headlock. He fought Bobby Green. Bobby Green was after Drew Dober, wasn't he? He fought Dan Hooker. Yeah, Dan Hooker, Malden. His strength of schedule isn't great.
Starting point is 00:11:44 Bobby Green was like, what the fuck? Bobby Green said that's what it's like when they give you steroids from the time you're 10. But he had to say that just because of the squeeze. But that's just next level grappling. He goes, no, that's a lifetime of grappling. Lifetime of training. They're testing him. Why don't you think he's going to stand and bang with Volkanov?
Starting point is 00:12:04 He's going to do whatever it takes to win. He's not going to decide to stand and bang. That's not the kind of guy he is. He's a fucking assassin. That would be the dumbest fucking strategy you're going to go. I'm just going to stand and bang. No, no, no. I think what happens with a guy like that is I think he has a lot of confidence
Starting point is 00:12:20 and is striking. And I think he's a very good striker. He's going to strike a little bit. You got it. You got to have confidence. You got to go high level. But as soon as he finds an opening, the best thing for him to do is he's a very good striker. He's going to strike a little bit. You got it. You got to have confidence. You got to be high level. But as soon as he finds an opening, the best thing for him to do is he's- Brian, people are mad at you right now.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Just pull out. No. Hey, B, he's the elite of the elite in grappling. His biggest advantage is grappling. Okay, so I'm going to stand by my- Here's what I'm saying. He's going to bang. He's going to clinch.
Starting point is 00:12:42 He's going to take him down, and that's going to be- You mean like the game plan? Yeah. That's the game plan. That's the game plan. No one said he's going to go out there and going to clinch. He's going to take him down. Oh, you mean like the game plan? Yeah. That's the game plan. No one said he's going to go out there and just take him down. Okay, ready? And look for a front kick. Listen, both guys are going to 100% do the thing they think is going to get them to victory.
Starting point is 00:12:56 This is a dangerous fight for both guys. I mean, whether or not Volkanovski can handle that size and power, we're going to find out. But without a doubt, Volkanovski is one of the most fucking skillful, dangerous dudes on the planet. Here's a question. And he never gets tired. And he never gets tired at 145 when he's cutting a shitload of weight. When he's not cutting any weight, I mean, who knows, man? Joe, here's a question for you.
Starting point is 00:13:18 I think you're underestimating something. Hold on. Here's a question. If Volkanovski wins tonight, it has to be top three goats. Yeah. One of the best of all time. You've been the champion of all time. Has to be in contention.
Starting point is 00:13:29 He's the number one pound for pound right now. He's only lost once in his career, and that was when he was younger. Did you see the guy he fought? And he was fighting a giant dude. Andre the Giant and lost the fight. Yeah, I mean, he's fought as high as Welterweight before. He's amazing. No, I think he fought middleweight.
Starting point is 00:13:43 I think he fought middle. So he fought 185 before, which is so crazy. I think you're underestimating something. No one's underestimating anything. No, I think he fought middleweight. I think he fought middle. So he fought 185 before, which is so crazy. I think you're underestimating something. No one's underestimating anything. No, you're underestimating something. I'm underestimating you. You're underestimating. I'm underestimating your base of knowledge on Makhachev's career.
Starting point is 00:13:55 I've watched every one of his fights. I'm sorry I couldn't name all of them. Listen, here's what I'm trying to say. I think you're underestimating the fact that Makachev is up for any challenge, and I think it's very tempting for him because he knows he's got wrestling in his back pocket. And I think that there's an athlete on that level, a fighter on that level, wants to see what he can do standing up. Disagree.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Yeah, until he sees an opening. Dude, he's a fucking assassin. He is going to stand. He's not going to go out there. The game plan isn't as soon as the bell rings, go take him down. You've got to stand and fucking pick your shots. You could be right. You could be right.
Starting point is 00:14:29 I think the first round is going to be the only way to do that. Brian, you could be right, but we've seen no evidence of this ever in his career. In his career, he's just fucking business. He does strike those. Even Khabib was striking a little bit with Khabib. There was a time when Khabib even wanted to strike with Khabib. But I'll tell you this, though. Shane Keeb from Bellator, he's fighting
Starting point is 00:14:47 at, or he's training at 10th Planet Austin now. Last night, he told me, he was with AKA for a few years, and he wrestled with Islam all the time. He said, and Shane wrestled in college. He said, dude, there's nobody like Islam. There's boogeyman stories about
Starting point is 00:15:03 Islam. He went through everybody at AK. No, 100%. So he was like, last night he was like, there's no way. They're so confident when he gets in a clinch that that's the fight. This is a good one to get cracking with. Jimmy Crute and Alonzo Menfield. Somebody can finish.
Starting point is 00:15:20 This is going to be a good one. So for people that are watching, there's a delay because of YouTube live. It's like a few second delay. So we'll let you know as soon as the clock starts so you could keep up with us. Alonzo got some tits. I didn't know Alonzo was 35. That's interesting. He's got some tits.
Starting point is 00:15:36 He's got some tits. He's got some fucking power, dude. He's got some power tits. That dude's got some fucking power. He's got some pecs on him. Pecs. He's jacked. Was he an athlete in another sport before this?
Starting point is 00:15:45 I believe so. I would assume so, Brian. Football? I believe so. Sure, pick a sport. Okay, all right. Well, whatever he chooses. There's certain dudes that champion MMA guys.
Starting point is 00:15:55 They could do whatever the fuck they wanted. They could have been soccer players. Jose Aldo was apparently a legit professional soccer player. Did you see his boxing? So was Ron Stewart. How did he do? He won a decision, but he was training some blows.
Starting point is 00:16:08 They're talking about him fighting Floyd Mayweather. He says it's done. What? They say the contract's there. Jose Aldo versus Floyd Mayweather in some sort of an exhibition boxing match. Floyd's fighting his sparring partners right now. I hear this.
Starting point is 00:16:20 I hear that there's... I wonder what weight that would be at. Have you heard this? Good question. There's rumblings of Luke Rockhold fighting Logan Paul. Oh, Jesus. In the UFC?
Starting point is 00:16:28 I know Luke. Oh, my. No, no, I'm sorry. Boxing. But didn't Logan Paul sign for the UFC? Boxing. Just prime. His energy.
Starting point is 00:16:35 Do you know how crazy it would be if Logan Paul signed for the UFC and fought Luke Rockhold in his first fight? No, bad idea. Bad idea. Do you know how crazy that would be? But if he agreed to it and Luke agreed to it, do you know how wild that would be? No. Wild.
Starting point is 00:16:48 That's some shit they would do. No, this is about boxing. Luke is talking about boxing with Logan. Yeah. He'll give him the worst matchup. He's going to give him Maka Chep. You know what? He's going to be...
Starting point is 00:16:57 He'll give him Alex. No, if Jake agreed to it, he'd give him fucking Hamzat. Yeah, he'd say, do you want a world title shot at middleweight? Here's Hamzat. Hey, Izzy, take a side step. Hey, here's Hamzat. Yeah. Here's Hamzat. What's him fucking Hamzat. Yeah, he'd say, do you want a world title shot at middleweight? Hey, Izzy, take a side step. Hey, here's Hamzat. What's next for Hamzat? Kobe Covington. Oh, that's happening?
Starting point is 00:17:11 No, I don't know. Because he's going to fight 85. That's right. I'm here at 85. But Kobe doesn't have a fight, so they thought they were going to do it. They need to get Hamzat a motherfucking fight. Let me ask you this. Let me ask your opinion. This is what gets me excited.
Starting point is 00:17:25 I like the idea of Makhachev going to 70. He might go to 70, he said. And then Kamzat and Makhachev going at it. Ooh! So that would be what? Chechnyan. Yeah, but you've got to be sure that Hamzat can make that weight. Correct.
Starting point is 00:17:40 That's the problem. The UFC can't trust it. The UFC's not trusting. I think part of the problem was they saw him making the weight in New York, and in New York they're not down for that fucking you're almost dying shit. Because that's what those guys are all doing.
Starting point is 00:17:54 All those guys like Makachev or Pejeta. Pejeta cuts a shitload of weight. Okay, so here we are. First round, four minutes and 46, 45, 43, 42, 41. I don't know why I didn't say 44. Somebody's getting knocked out.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Yeah. Guaranteed. These guys are getting after it right away. Oh, geez. Hey, the fight is Hamzat versus Piera at 85. Oh, that would be amazing. Well, you know, Pajero offered it to him at 205. He said, I don't want to cut weight.
Starting point is 00:18:18 I'm familiar. You want to do it in Brazil? Let's go. Yeah. That would have been a fun fight. He was down. Yeah, Pajero was. That's gangster.
Starting point is 00:18:24 Because he said, I don't want to lose the weight. I just lost the weight to make the- Well, Kamzat's down too. Forget about the weight. That was the fact that he wanted Kamzat. Yeah. God damn.
Starting point is 00:18:33 You would think it'd be the other way around, like Kamzat's calling him out. You know what I mean? If you let that big boy not have a dehydration day where he almost dies the day before- Pejera? Oh, you're not promised.
Starting point is 00:18:43 Pejera is a monster. That left hook, though. Everything. The knees, the low kicks, everything. That guy is special. I don't know who's going to be. When he goes 205, like, listen, I love Jamal Hill, but it's going to be a problem. Pajero.
Starting point is 00:18:56 There's a problem at 205. He's a problem everywhere. And if he is stronger and healthier because he doesn't have to cut that weight because he's in his 30s now. Somebody getting knocked out. He's a dangerous guy. How does he deal't have to cut that weight? Because he's in his 30s now. Somebody getting knocked out. He's a dangerous guy. How does he deal with Kamzat's wrestling? That's a real good question because the disparity in wrestling is so off the charts.
Starting point is 00:19:13 What's so funny? How's he deal with it? How's he deal with it? He doesn't. He doesn't. He doesn't. You got to pray to God you land a nuclear Brazilian bomb. I mean, he wrestles with Glover Teixeira.
Starting point is 00:19:22 I mean, he's got that. Yeah, Glover's very, very good. But Kamzat is like, what he did to Kevin Holland was a wake-up call for everybody. It was rude. It was fucking rude. It was rude. Was it rude? It was rude.
Starting point is 00:19:36 Disrespectful. I mean, it was just like, I am just going to hit the gas. No brakes because I know I can finish you in this first round. He just went in and just fucking. Jimmy Crew just landed a nice knee to the body off the clinch. This fight is wild. That's why they put it on him. Yeah, getting after it right away. Well, isn't Jimmy...
Starting point is 00:19:52 Is he from Australia? Yes. Apparently, the Australian judges have been rather favorable in the agreements to the Australian fighters. Oh, that's weird. Yes, I've heard. That's a fucking problem. There's a rumor already circulating. Really? Yes. That's a problem. Oh, that's weird. Yes, I've heard. That's a fucking problem. There's a rumor already circulating. Really?
Starting point is 00:20:06 Yes. That's why I'm betting on Alex's decision. Yeah. Imagine if it's like a horrible decision. Yeah. And he wins it in Australia. Yeah, that's what I'm betting. Do you want to back out?
Starting point is 00:20:17 Absolutely not. So let's tell everybody the bet. So I bet Brian $2,000, but here's the deal. And I love Alex. Volkanovski can win whether it's a finish decision and I win. But if Makhachev, Brian only gets his $2,000 if Makhachev finishes Alex Volkanovski. If it goes to decision and Makhachev wins, he still owes me money. I want to lose this money.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Makhachev has to get a finish. I like Volkanovski. Same bet with Eddie, too. So I got three grand on the line. $1,000 with you, $2,000 with you. So you think that Alex is going to survive? I think it wouldn't be a decision. No, Eddie, too. So I got three grand on the line. 1,000 with you, 2,000 with you. So you think that Alex is going to survive? I think he wins via decision. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:20:49 My bet is that Islam finishes him. Yeah. That's how I get paid. So you think that Volkanovski can do enough to get to a decision, and even if he loses, you win. Yeah. That's a good bet. Here's the problem with Brendan.
Starting point is 00:21:03 It's all good. Here's the problem. What about the problem with you? Well, I don't you win. Yeah, that's a good bet. Here's the problem with Brendan. It's all good. Here's the problem. What about the problem with you? Well, I don't have any. Now listen. You're saying I'm biased? No, Brendan cannot meet somebody. He fell in love with Volkanovski
Starting point is 00:21:15 and there's a lot to fall in love with. So Brendan really likes him as a person. So he can't get his emotions out of the way. I am biased. I've always been straight up. I appreciate that. But no, just looking at it technically, with his speed, I just think his speed and striking is going to be a problem for Makhachev.
Starting point is 00:21:30 And his height is actually an advantage when it comes to grappling. I think it's going to be a tougher outing for Makhachev than Charles Oliveira was. That's fair. It's fair. I'm interested. I mean, I'm certainly interested. He's not pound for pound number one because he's going to get fucking sliced through like butter is what I'm saying. Oliver has such a wild style for a champion.
Starting point is 00:21:48 Like the way he went at Gaethje. Nuts. He just goes after you, man. Michael Chandler. Goes after you. Goes after you. Yeah, and even after getting hurt real bad in that first round, second round, going right after you. Charles Oliver got a fight against Darius.
Starting point is 00:22:02 When is that? I don't know. That's a mother trucking fight. That's a mother trucking fight. Ooh, I like that a lot. And you don't think God is on Darius. When is that? I don't know. That's a mother trucking fight. That's a mother trucking fight. Ooh, I like that a lot. And you don't think God is on Darius' side? Darius has got Jesus Christ on his side. Brian, you're religious now.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Mennefield is on top here. Look at this. I'm religious now. Alonzo's landing some big shots. Crute's in trouble, man. Yeah, he is. And it's back. He's so white, you can see all the red.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Oh, yeah. That cage scrapes the shit out of people. Oh, my God. Oh, Kroot's back up. They're tired. Well, he hasn't been hitting the gas from the beginning of this round. Big boy. Oh!
Starting point is 00:22:38 Oh! Kroot's barely missed that hit. Oh! Oh, he's out of there. He's out. He's out. He's hanging on. He's only got three seconds.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Oh! Oh! He's almost got the take out. He's hanging on. He's only got three seconds. Oh, he's going to take down. That's crazy. Crazy. They could have called that easy. Wow, they could have easily called that. He got rocked. Dude, that guy's a beast. And the fact that he got the takedown after that, that's amazing.
Starting point is 00:22:58 He was throwing heat. Look at his eyes. See, there's Logan Paul's drink. That prime. Have you tried it? Charles Oliver set to return at UFC 288 against Benil Darius. That's a fight. Where is that one gonna be at? Does it say it's unannounced? It's in May Yeah, Connor has to do six months from the time he signs back on the USADA
Starting point is 00:23:22 Yeah, sure and when's he gonna sign back on to USADA? I Mean sure. And when's he going to sign back on to USADA? I mean, if you want to do a fight soon, he's going to have to do it now, right? Well, I mean, when are they thinking about him fighting? Well, they didn't announce a date because he's going to do the ultimate fighter against Michael Chandler, and that's what, so six months after that with post-production. Is it six months? Six months post, yeah, that's what they said, yeah. Is that much?
Starting point is 00:23:44 Dude, he can take some punishment. Well, that's what they said. Is that much? Dude, he can take some punishment. Well, who knows how he is right now, though. I mean, he could be fucked right now. Sometimes when a guy gets dropped like that and they get touched again, he could be concussed right now. Yeah, he is concussed. He's going to get caught.
Starting point is 00:24:01 There's a lot of guys who, after the fight, they don't even know how they did anything because they don't remember the whole fight because they were concussed early in the fight. You got to ask your coaches. He's going to get caught. There's a lot of guys who, like, after the fight, they don't even know how they did anything because they don't remember the whole fight because they were concussed early in the fight. You got to ask your coaches. He's going to get caught. You won't remember certain shit at all. Oh, see? See, that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:24:12 Look, drops with the jab. Stop the fight, please. Yeah. See how he got dropped with that jab? Boy, he can really survive, though, doesn't he? Just shoots in. Oh, he's tough as shit, dude. He's tough as shit.
Starting point is 00:24:20 Joe, don't you think they should stop fights earlier sometimes? You're a pussy. It really depends, man. You're pussy. You look at guys like Gray Maynard versus Frankie Edgar. Frankie, they could have stopped that fight on both those first two fights with Frankie and Gray Maynard. Easily. They could have stopped those fights.
Starting point is 00:24:35 Great fights though. Frankie survived. How about Brock Lesnar and Shane Carlin? They could have stopped that. Yes, easily. Which they should have. A little bit different though. Now?
Starting point is 00:24:43 He's beating the shit out of them. So I'm thinking about Justin Gaethje and Tony Ferguson. I'm thinking about Justin Gaethje and, I'm sorry, I'm thinking about Volkanovski and T-City. Those fights should have been stopped way before him. No, they shouldn't have. Oh, God, you're crazy. Are you serious? Sounds like you need to move to Portland.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Am I the only man with humanity here? Jimmy Crute back up his feet How many boosters did you get, dog? Did you get all of them? You got all the boosters? Oh, I'm sorry You guys are so fucking macho Forget it
Starting point is 00:25:15 Oh my god I'm on the wrong podcast Is this a gay voice you're doing? That's why I know you're in panic I didn't say it was gay You're doing a straight up gay voice That's a panic That's your Hail Mary Oh, Big El That's a panic. That's your Hail Mary.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Oh, Big Elbow by Metafield. That's my Hail Mary. That's your Hail Mary. You went to a gay voice. How dare you. It's a typical 90s. It's a 90s. People are paying for the violence.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Oh, this fight is wild, boys. Wild. Oh. I said it correctly. Alonzo Metafield has a nasty jab. He keeps popping Crute with that jab. Look at that. Jab in the right hand behind it.
Starting point is 00:25:47 Crute keeps getting tagged up. But look, he's a zombie. He has lats for days. No way that guy's going to survive. He's built like a stingray. No way he's going to survive. Dude, Mennefield is cracking him with shots, and he keeps coming forward. This fight's amazing.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Yeah. He shot on the leg again, but this time he didn't get it. I got to be honest. I wish this was on the big TV. Oh! Oh, oh. Well, we gotta be able to pull stuff up behind him. We can't have it on the TV because people would see it.
Starting point is 00:26:14 He keeps catching these shots, dude. Not good. This is a crazy fight. Oh, my God. This looks like the movie The War. Every time Menefield catches him, he's fucked. Look, look, look. He's in trouble.
Starting point is 00:26:24 He's done, he's done, he's done. Bro, he is fucking Mark Wahlberg from the movie The War. Every time Mennefield catches him, he's fucked. He's going up. He's out. He's in trouble. He's done. He's done. He's done. He's done. Bro, he is fucking Mark Wahlberg from the movie The Fighter. This is the exact plot. This is fantastic, dude. Bro, he's so tough. Stop the fight.
Starting point is 00:26:36 Crute's just looking to recover here. Dude, Alonzo Mennefield's tired, too. Is that Saquon Barkley for the New York Giants? They're the same person. He's got some thighs. Yeah. He's got some thighs. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:26:43 Crute's turning it around. He took the big, deep breath. Oh, my God. What a way to kick off this card, though. It was a smart fight. A smart fight to get it going in Australia, right? He's letting him recover, though. He should separate.
Starting point is 00:26:55 Well, Manifaz is tired, too, from whooping his ass. He's tired from landing bombs. Yes. That's exhausting. Yeah. I mean, I think they're both Looking for a little Break here But I think This is an agreement right here
Starting point is 00:27:07 Wouldn't he get more rest Just like Dancing around a little No Because you can get caught Yes But he's not doing shit though But neither guy are
Starting point is 00:27:14 Neither guy are They're both trying to Figure out who's gonna Hit the gas again And it's an agreement right there You're like Let's be cool You want to stay
Starting point is 00:27:21 Be cool Me and Orlowski were like Be cool bro Be fucking cool I'm trying to get my breath back here So stay? Be cool. Me and Orlowski were like that. I'm like, be cool, bro. Be fucking cool. I'm trying to get my breath back here. So are you. Be cool. Don't throw any elbows.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I tried against Crow Cop. He's like, oh, I don't speak English. Check out this elbow. You like your big fucking nose? Your nose has never been the same. Oh, no. I have breathing problems for life. Oh, look at this.
Starting point is 00:27:40 Crew got him down. Get his back. Stop it right now. Somebody's tired. Oh, man. I feel so tired. Oh. And Crew's neck crank his back. Stop it right now. Somebody's tired. Oh, Menafield's so tired. Oh. Oh. And Crute's neck cranking him.
Starting point is 00:27:48 Oh, it's a bulldog joke. Oh, he's cranking across the face. Okay, never mind. Dude, if he pulls this off. Pull him to the face. Amazing. And he's got a little time. He's got a minute to go.
Starting point is 00:27:56 He's got a little time here. It's second round, so there's a whole other round. Does it give you confidence? If Crute can get under that chin, man. Oh, he's going to get fully behind the back. Oh, oh. Pull him back. Oh, he's gonna get a pull Minefield is tired men of feeling those names. I call my field cuz he hit so hard. I like it
Starting point is 00:28:14 Oh, oh, it's my new nickname for him 40 seconds With the wrist fight he's gonna cross the face. Oh, no, he still don't have it and it feels real trouble But he's defending well. He is. And if he can make it out of this round, Crute's still hurt. Holy shit, is Crute's corner man the white dude with the cornrows? I was about to say. Because he's definitely winning.
Starting point is 00:28:32 I was about to say, that is an interesting look. You can do that in Australia. Wow. Yeah, if you're riffraff. That's an incredible look. Riffraff. Oh, look at this. He's on the face.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Dude, five seconds. He's not going to get a guy to tap from the face. Give him the thumbs up. Yeah, he's just going to deal with the pain. How dope are those gloves? Have the 30-year on them? They're so sick. They are dope.
Starting point is 00:28:56 If I could just get a pair of those. Those are sick. There's so much other shit. Has the UFC been around for 30 years? They went for arm bars, pulled them back. Wow. He just stayed in that same position. 1993, daddy?
Starting point is 00:29:06 Exhausted. Look at that. Same guy. It's a good look. Yeah, he's exhausted, but that was his chance to come back from the dead. You know what I mean? He might not have another chance like that. I didn't know riff-raff.
Starting point is 00:29:16 You're talking about a rapper. I thought you meant riff-raff like the type of person that would do that. That would be a riff-raff person. No, that's riff-raff at 60 years old. That's hilarious. That's impressive. Going into the third round here, man. Who fucking saw that?
Starting point is 00:29:30 That's Pat Barry. Oh, Pat Barry. Look at that. Oh. Holy shit. Damn. Ooh. Pat Barry, legit K1 kick.
Starting point is 00:29:39 What a fight. This is a wild ass fight. Jimmy Crute's going to have some energy here because he ended that fight on a good note, so I bet you he comes out like a banshee. You're going to get energy from that, no matter how tired you are. Jimmy Crute thinks he's on a beach in Brazil. They're like, we're still fighting? We're still fighting, right?
Starting point is 00:29:58 Oh, Shevchenko. I find it very attractive. Bro, once the fight gets going though, that dude's a savage. But I mean he's been fucking rocked, man. He looks like the French guy from Mike Dyson's Punch-Out. That dude was tough to beat. Hell yeah. Jimmy, he's getting caught, dude.
Starting point is 00:30:16 Well, Mennefield has a beautiful jab. Yeah, his jab's there all night. Oh, that right hand, too. Keep that Eddie Fudge hand up there. He keeps catching them. It's crazy. Crute is so fucking tough, man. He needs to shoot again.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Oh! Look at that jab, man. Nasty jab. You ever see how Ken Norton's coach, Eddie Futch, taught? I know he coached... Spit it out. Jesus, get it out of your mouth. Fucking shut up.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Today, do you? I've seen all Islam's fights Go back to the gay voice When Ken Norton fought When Ken Norton You fucking bully Abandon the story I started my sentence I'm gonna finish it
Starting point is 00:30:58 I started my sentence I'm gonna finish it When fucking Eddie Fudge taught Ken Norton to catch the jab And he did his hand in front of his face That's what he needs to do I'm going to finish it. When fucking Eddie Futch taught Ken Norton to catch the jab. Yeah. And he did his hand in front of his face. That's what he needs to do. Fuck yeah. Give me the phone.
Starting point is 00:31:09 Thank you. I got to text this coach. What's riffraff's fucking thing? What's riffraff's thing? Somebody get nut-chotted? No. He's taking a point away. Wow.
Starting point is 00:31:17 What do you do? Oh my God. What did Alonzo do? He must have been grabbing the fence. He must have been grabbing the fence. Boy, to do that that fast, not even a warning, that's rare these days, which I approve of. Mark Goddard's the fucking man. I love Mark Goddard. I think he's the best
Starting point is 00:31:30 ref in the game. It's him, and I mean, it's hard to say. Consistent is what I care about. Herb Dean is the gold standard in my book. Interesting. I think he's number one, but I mean, Mark Goddard's right there. I love them all, but Mike Beltran's number one. Mike Beltran's the man. Oh, I love Mike Beltran. Did he have to kill his mustache? I like Dan Merguliotta, I mean, Mark Carter's right there. I love them all, but Mike Beltran's number one.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Mike Beltran's the man. Oh, I love Mike Beltran. Did he have to kill his mustache? I like Dan Merguliana, too. I don't think so. I like a lot of these guys, man. Interesting, Joe. There's a lot of good referees.
Starting point is 00:31:53 Who does he like? Dan Merguliana. I like Merguliana. He's had some tough days in the office. I was a Steve Mazzagati fan. Oh, how did? Get out. I love Mario Yamasaki.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Is this your studio? Get out. I love Mario Yamasaki. No, he's? Get out. I love Mario Yamasaki. No, he's a good guy. He's a good guy. Any ref that's known for letting fights go too long, I like those guys. Jimmy Crute working hard for his takedown. For $75.99, I want to see some fucking destruction.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Did you ever hear? I want to see some CT. Don't take that from me. Steve Mazzagati. Don't take that from me. Mark Smith's a great referee. Mark Smith is really good. Mark Smith's the man. When Steve Mazzagati
Starting point is 00:32:26 was coaching Jake Shields when he fought who's the guy with the ankle lock? Oh, Kru gets the takedown! Look at this side control! Oh shit! Oh shit! Mount! Full mount! Oh my goodness! Let him go.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Oh my goodness. Kru'd on top. And Mennefield had to give up one point remember. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Crude on top. Crude on top. And Mennefield got to give up one point, remember. Yep. He's about to win. Looking for the triangle. Looking for the arm triangle.
Starting point is 00:32:52 Head and arm. Oh, he almost has it. Alonzo's privy to it. Privy is a good word for that. Thanks, man. It's nice to be able to pull that out of your bag. Dude, I've been working on my vocabulary. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:33:02 Privy. Thank you. Thank you, Brian. Thank you. It's hard when you use a word that you know you shouldn't be using. You're not exactly sure if you used it right. You're like, damn. I got a little overanxious.
Starting point is 00:33:11 I was Chuck. I was Chuck. I got a little overanxious on my vocabulary. That was me dipping my toe in the deep water there. We all know I struggle with the language of English. Oh, full mouth. Look at this. I keep starting stories and I forget where I'm going.
Starting point is 00:33:21 Let him roll his fucking. I'm on mushrooms. Look at this. He's. Oh, shit. Look at this. He's... Oh, shit. Get a snack. Oh, that was a big mistake. Oh, look at that.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Recovery. Nice. Look at that. All that pressure, too. Menaphil's exhausted. It's a long two minutes left. He's going to mount him again. He can't even stop that mount.
Starting point is 00:33:41 He's barely stopping it. That foot's out. He needs to let him roll to stop it. Full mount. He needs to let him roll to stop it. He's out. Full mount. He needs to let him roll here. Let him roll. He does recover easily.
Starting point is 00:33:50 They're both so slippery and tired. Who do you have to fight to right now if it stops? Crute. Well, Crute, this is a big round for Crute. Crute won the last one, and they took a point, and now he's dominated the third. I did not score it. I've just been watching while drinking. Uh-oh. Oh, never listen to me scoring when I'm drinking on shows.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Yeah. People get so upset. But Crute is dominating in this third round, no doubt about it. And he won the second if they took a point from him. Well, they took a point from him in this round. It's the same round. I'm sorry. I'm high right now.
Starting point is 00:34:15 But that's such a big moment, man, when you take a point in such a good fight. Because he was tagging him on the feet. And as a fighter, there's nothing worse. And Crute is just dominating here. Menfield is so tired. Herb Dean took a point for me, and I was like, you son of a... Fuck you, dude. Yeah, I fucked you.
Starting point is 00:34:33 What did he take a point for? He took a point from me against Cro Cop. If it went to a decision, Royally fucked me. Jimmy Crute is just... Why did he take the point? I can't remember. Gay stuff. Yeah, I was touching his butt.
Starting point is 00:34:50 Who said gay stuff? Did you just say that? Gay stuff. Gay stuff. One point, oil check. One point, gay stuff. They're like, stop that gay stuff. Somebody kisses somebody in the middle of a fight.
Starting point is 00:34:58 Can you imagine when they show the replay of the oil check? He just sticks his finger. Oh, I know what it was. Yep, yep. And the whole audience goes, oh! Oh, I know what it was. Yeah, yeah. And the whole audience goes, oh! No, I remember what it was now. Fish hook, fish hook, fish hook. Cro Cop thinks he's a professional.
Starting point is 00:35:11 I wish I was fish hooking. Because Cro Cop's such a savvy vet. He kept going, he hit me in the back of the head, and I really wasn't. Alonzo back to his feet. And I did it, and he took a point. Alonzo Mennefield back to his feet. Look at this. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Ten seconds left. If he gets him down, you got to give it to Jimmy. This is a wild ass fucking third round. Do you get a point for escaping? That's it. Isn't it funny how guys are doing that shoulder check now? Yeah. After Connor and Cowboy, everybody's trying that.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Yeah. Everybody gives it a try. John started that first. Is that a Muay Thai thing? No kidding. Or is that a John Jones thing? I don't know. I think it's just a fight thing.
Starting point is 00:35:44 Jimmy Crute's eyes it's just a fight thing. Jimmy Crute's eyes fucked. What a fight. What a wild way to start this off. Yeah. And they only get better. If I was at home, I'd be screaming. Do you scream when you watch fights at home?
Starting point is 00:35:58 Hell yeah. I wake my kids up sometimes. Yeah, I scream like there's other people there with me. Me too. Look at that jab of Alonzo. His jab is so nice. Yeah, he was laying it all night. Yeah, it's so clean.
Starting point is 00:36:10 Look at that jab, man. It's so pretty. Look at that left hook. Oh! Crute stuck his tongue out at him. And then got punched in the face. How tough is Crute? It's tough as shit.
Starting point is 00:36:19 Look at this. One, two, son. It's weird. They're just showing highlights of Alonzo. That's a very good sign. You know, listen, man. After that third round, that was a 10-9 round at least already. And then on top of it, you got another point.
Starting point is 00:36:33 Could you give it 10-8 for having Mount that long? Yeah. Crute won this fight 100%. You could. I would. You could. And so then here's Johns doing it against Glover. Bam.
Starting point is 00:36:42 Look at that. Bam. John's an original. John does everything. He's the best. They'll give this fight to Crute because he's from Australia. That was before Conor? No, they would give it to him in Vegas.
Starting point is 00:36:50 Yeah, that was before Conor. Yeah. So it could have been 10-8 in the third already, and then you have one point, so you got 10-7. That's tough to beat. He would have to- They would give this fight to Crute even if it was in fucking Abu Dhabi. I agree. He would have to have two really big rounds to overcome that deficit.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Another one, too. Another one with John? No, not John. It was somebody else. He says he broke his eye or something. Oh, wow. Oh, look at that. Oh, that broke his jaw with that?
Starting point is 00:37:14 What was that, 2018? That's incredible. Is that Mokachev? Broke his jaw with this. Look at that. Is that John Jones? That's incredible. Is that John Jones?
Starting point is 00:37:21 No. Rakim Cleveland. I'm not aware of him. Look at that. Look at that. That's incredible. Is that John Jones? No. Rakim Cleveland. I'm not aware of him. Look at that. Look at that. That's PFL, too. That's amazing. That's a real power, the way he pushes off the leg.
Starting point is 00:37:32 Serious torture. Watch how he does this. Boom! A lot of snap to that. Smart. Broke his jaw with that. That's crazy. I guess relaxed.
Starting point is 00:37:39 To relax. You don't see it coming. Your jaw's relaxed. Brian says that, John Jones. Hey. Significant strikes. Look at that. 17 to 70.
Starting point is 00:37:48 Alonzo Mennefield landed 70 significant strikes. That's a lot. Yeah. He's got to be thinking. Alonzo looks like he didn't win. Yeah. But it's like that last round is like such a big, crude round. Oh, they're going over the scorecards.
Starting point is 00:38:02 Look. There's some shit going down. A lot of counting. What is round. Oh, they're going over the scorecards. Look, there's some shit going down. A lot of counting. What is that? Oh, okay. Something's going on because Buffer is consulting with other experts. Buffer's like, what the fuck are you talking about? Oh, this is serious.
Starting point is 00:38:13 Something's happening, kids. So is Buffer. Is it a split? Could be a draw, maybe. I bet it's a draw. I bet this shit's a draw. That's stupid. So I bet they gave Mennefield the first two rounds, and then they gave Jimmy Crute the
Starting point is 00:38:22 third in a big way, and then it's a draw. Even though he lost a point. 10-9 plus one is 10-8, so that's two rounds down. Would that be 10-9, 10-9, then 10-8? Let's hear what it says. Oh, Bruce is preparing. Look at Jimmy Crute's face. Dude, look at that guy with his grades.
Starting point is 00:38:37 He looks great. I want to buy meth from him. I bet he has the best meth. Oh, dude. Best meth in Australia? Here we go. Uh-oh. The judges score the contest.
Starting point is 00:38:52 29-27. 28-28. And 28-28. That's a draw. This match is a majority draw. A majority draw because that one point. That one point in the last round. Very interesting. Very interesting.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Very interesting. That would have been 30-27 if that judge. If he gets 29-27, right? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Well, awesome fight. Yeah, you have a great showing. That's not a bad decision.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Nah. I'm okay with draws. Well, awesome fight Yeah, you gave a great showing That's not a bad decision Nah I'm okay with draws Yeah, you could say 10-9 in that third round And then the one point, and that makes it a draw If you give Mennefield the first two, makes sense Pretty rare But Mennefield, man, what a jab that guy has Yeah, I guess the second round, you'd only give Crute that
Starting point is 00:39:40 Because he finished strong, but he was losing the entire second round It just shows you, like, at what level the cardio of the championship caliber fighters are at. Big difference. Because the difference between these guys, they just got so tired, especially Mennefield in that third round. It's interesting when you get to that level, that level of the ability to hit the gas for five fucking rounds. Five rounds.
Starting point is 00:40:04 Like Izzy and Pejeta. Five rounds. Like getting after it. And Izzy's favorite in that rematch. Woo! Izzy's favorite? Izzy, really? Yeah, slight favorite.
Starting point is 00:40:12 Wow, interesting. What date is that? That's April in Miami. Yep. I cannot get over that guy. I think that's April 8th. I think they got Masvidal on that card, too. Holy shit.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Masvidal versus Gilbert Burns. Gilbert Burns. Woo! In Miami. Oh, there's the hook, man. Dan Hooker was supposed to be on the card, too. Holy shit. Masvidal versus Gilbert Burns. Gilbert Burns. Woo! In Miami. Oh, there's the hook, man. Dan Hooker was supposed to be on the card. He broke his hand. Oh, that guy's vocal.
Starting point is 00:40:30 He's awesome. He's awesome. Oh, he's great. Ty Tui Voss. Oh, he's going to drink out of something. A lot of shoes. I can't watch this. I'll throw up.
Starting point is 00:40:39 But no one's spitting that one, at least. Well, not yet. I can't stand that spitting. Hey, Ty, you don't have that much time. Just go. Hey, he's going to tell someone to spit in it. Just go. Oh, no. He didn't. That's nice. It not yet. I can't stand that. Hey, Ty, you don't have that much time. Just go. Hey, you gotta tell someone to spit in it. Oh, no. He didn't. That's nice. It's so crazy that they like doing that.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Yeah, I'm not into that. I did it with him. He spit a luke in my thing. I threw up. Are you serious? I threw up. Fuck that. So unnecessary. So unnecessary. That's how I got COVID. That's the only drug that people can force you to do like that. No one's like, do coke off my dick. Like, alright, rethink coke off your dick. Well, the people we know don do like that. No one's like, do coke off my dick. Like, all right, rethink coke off your dick.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Well, the people we know don't do that. How do I get it hard? I need help. You know what I'm saying? Like, drink beer out of my shoe. Okay. Do coke off my dick.
Starting point is 00:41:15 Motley Crue have definitely had people do coke off their dick. Spit in my mouth. Yeah, but I mean, not guys. Look at this. Jose Aldo. So if he really does do that Mayweather fight,
Starting point is 00:41:25 that's interesting. I hope he gets paid.weather fight that's interesting I hope he gets paid I hope he gets paid because I don't know if it's going to be an exhibition match or if it's the real thing but we're doing it I think they're all exhibitions you know it's like we know who wins but if you do it as an exhibition I think you can get away with a lot more in terms of
Starting point is 00:41:42 getting sanctioned and stuff like that here's my question Joe if you're Floyd Mayweather writing supposedly worth a billion dollars, which probably is why He spends a lot needs it coming fun. He's gambling he's buying million-dollar watch He's got 80,000 cars like he's like he's like in ten Bugatti's. Yeah, he needs that money coming in still After taxes and all that He's smart He's beating up people that have no chance of fighting him He's fighting like YouTubers and sparring partners
Starting point is 00:42:10 He's crazy Crazy smart It's amazing But he's still amazing He's still amazing You see him spar that YouTuber? Yeah Amazing
Starting point is 00:42:17 He's still good His skills are incredible Matt They're fucking incredible Are they putting Jen's Pulver? That's Jen's Pulver wow This is Jose Aldo in the boxing match? Watch his uppercuts. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:26 He rocks this dude. He gets hit too, though, a lot. Look at this shot. Wow. Look, we're watching Jose Aldo over here. And that guy's like three and five. He's like, you know, but that's who you should be fighting in your first boxing. He's three and five?
Starting point is 00:42:39 He has a weird salty record, yeah. Oh, wow. Nice right hand. Oh, one-two. Double jab and a right hand behind his upper that was filthy although it looks good doesn't it quick he looks good his head movement man he's he looks good outstanding oh wow crazy to see these guys like retire from mma but then continue to fight and box and like bare knuckle box yeah money luke rock wants doing that he's
Starting point is 00:43:04 getting serious about it what is he doing he's going. Yeah, money. Luke Rock wants to win that. He's getting serious about it. What is he doing? Is he going to have a boxing match? Yeah, he wants to box Logan Paul. He wants to box Logan Paul? Yeah. Logan Paul, I think they're talking about doing that deal. That would be a bad idea for Logan Paul.
Starting point is 00:43:16 Yeah, I think, yes. Any civilian trying to fight Luke Rock, Colton, anything is a bad idea. Jake would be interesting. It would be interesting. In a boxing match, that would be very idea. Jake would be interesting. It would be interesting. In a boxing match, that would be very interesting. Jake Paul? So Jake's a lot better than Logan?
Starting point is 00:43:29 Yes. I'd love to see Jake fight Luke. He's a real KO artist. He's a legit KO artist. He's going to starch Tommy in under four. But I'd love to see him fight. That'd be an interesting fight. I want him to fight Nate Diaz.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Jake Nate. I think Nate is interesting fight that Jake would move. I want him to fight Nate Diaz. Jake-Nate. I think Nate is too small for him, man. For Jake? I feel that way. No. No? No, no. Nate's, I mean.
Starting point is 00:43:54 Nate's just very long. He's a big, long, tall dude, and he's a very good boxer. Yep. And the volume and the cardio could be a problem, but Jake has that one-punch knockout power. It'd be interesting. Legit one-punch knockout it'd be interesting legit one punch knockout after seeing Jake against Ansh I'm like I don't know if I'd favor Nate but I want to see it
Starting point is 00:44:09 Jen's Pulver this was an amazing fight do you remember this fight hell fucking yeah damn yeah dude Jen's Pulver little evil prime was a bad motherfucker oh man out of Pat Militia remember those badasses remember Sean Shirk worst teeth in the UFC but man he was a savage I never saw his teeth that's why I come little shark teeth like a Mako shark is that really why nope I made that up but his teeth were awful yeah I don't remember that at all oh man it's on BJ and Jen's on the ultimate fighter that's right God back in the day kids back in the fuck about the ultimate fighter back with vengeance did you hear about this card that got announced? Yes.
Starting point is 00:44:46 Yes. Yeah, Roy Jones Jr. is fighting Pettis. Very strange. Anthony Pettis is going to have a boxing match against one of the greatest boxers of all time. Dude, Albo Stevens. Jose Stevens and Vitor Belfort and Jacare. Paul Daly, Anthony Taylor, Pearl Gonzalez.

Starting point is 00:46:07 Fuck. People forget how good Jens Pulver was, man. He was a killer. Jens Pulver was a bad motherfucker in his day. That left hook that dropped John Lewis. Didn't he come out and drop John Lewis? I think it was a right hand. Yes. It was on the right hand.
Starting point is 00:46:17 Wow. Was it a straight left? You're right. You're right. It was a straight punch. It was a straight, yeah. I forget which hand it was. It was a beast.
Starting point is 00:46:24 I think it was a left hook. It was pretty close. Or a straight punch. It was a straight, yeah. I forget which hand it was. They showed it right at the bingo. I think it was a left hook. It was pretty close. Or a left cross. Oh, these young kids who didn't grow up watching UFC, like, they forget, man. The Sean Shirk's or the Matt Hughes, the fucking Frank Triggs. How about fucking BJ in his prime, son? Oh, my fave. BJ in his prime was a motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:46:40 Motherfucker. Fought Liotta Machida at light heavyweight. He's the one that, to this day, Anderson Anderson Silva says is the best fighter he's ever seen. He says BJ Penn in his prime. And he was down to fight fucking anyone. Anyone. Fought Machida at heavyweight. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:53 He went up to fight Matt Hughes at 170. Yeah. And beat him. And beat him. Yeah. Such a savage. That fight was crazy. Incredible savage.
Starting point is 00:47:01 BJ Penn, Matt Hughes. Damn James Poverty rocking the braces. Rocking the braces Rocking the braces I like when guys get older And get braces I'm done with my You're Invisalign? Dude
Starting point is 00:47:08 Let's get back on Dominic Cruz came to my show In San Diego And came backstage And was showing He's such a fucking tough guy He was showing me wrestling shit He was just showing me nasty shit
Starting point is 00:47:19 Well, you asked him You asked him No, we were talking and stuff He was just showing me the craziest shit He's just He's always ready to go He runs on six gear at all, he's always ready to go. He runs on six gear at all times. He's always ready to go.
Starting point is 00:47:28 He's so competitive. Like, he's the kind of guy where you realize if you, like, gave him, if you, like, kind of even got a little bit in his face, he might just attack you. Did you ever watch that video of him fucking up some troll who came into the gym? No. Some dude came to the gym. Yeah. What? Wanted to challenge him, and they had a war.
Starting point is 00:47:44 Yeah. Oh, dude. Yeah, he head challenge him, and they had a war. He head kicked him. He's got a thousand ways to hurt you. He beat the shit out of that dude. Smart dude. The dude was good. It wasn't like the guy sucked. The guy had some skill. The guy didn't suck.
Starting point is 00:47:53 It doesn't matter. Yeah, he didn't suck. He was a good fighter. But Dominic got him. Yeah, Dominic got him. But they had a war. Dom won the best of all time. Oh, fucking.
Starting point is 00:48:03 He's an elite fighter. Nothing's better when a troll went up and fought Deontay Wilder. Or like White Boy and the wife beat him. That gets crazy, though. Oh, this is... Dominic Cruz doesn't fuck around. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:48:18 The guy's trying to tap. And he's just beating the shit out of him. I mean, if you're a pro fighter... Yeah, look at that. It's just such a terrible decision to fight that guy i mean you you're dealing with some guy like you have no idea look at that you have no idea where those punches are coming from his footwork is crazy it's so hard to deal with i like how they put training session real big right there in the room yeah that's training your honor watch your green you're not with dominic cruz he's not gonna real big right there in the middle. Just training. I watched a training session.
Starting point is 00:48:46 I watched a training session that Joaquin Buckley put on his Instagram where he did a reaction to it and this dude in training it looks like they're in a gym, hits this guy with a left hook, cracks him, a hook, might have been a right hook and then hammer fists him while
Starting point is 00:49:02 he's out. Interesting. Look at this. Watch this. Look at this. They're in a this. Watch this. Oh, shit. Look at this. They're in a gym. Watch this again. Look, but watch before. Watch before because he, watch this.
Starting point is 00:49:12 Right hand, boom, and then watch this hammer fist. I wonder what happened with that. They're just training. I don't know. It looks like they're in a gym training, but they might have been fighting. It seems personal. It seems like they're fighting. Peter Pork is up.
Starting point is 00:49:24 Yeah, if you're going to fight if you're going to come to a gym and challenge Dominic Cruz, good luck. He's not going to take it easy on you. That guy had no idea what he was getting into. No, but in this case, I don't know what was going on. That seemed personal. That seemed rough. Because he was KO'd
Starting point is 00:49:39 with that right hand. His whole body was left. Hammerfist and training? Usually most guys are like, oh shit. But he was like hell yeah yeah and it was a hard like Dana White was gonna give him
Starting point is 00:49:48 a contract that was like a Francis Ngannou versus Alistair hammer fist boom vicious Dan Henderson Michael Bisping
Starting point is 00:49:54 well that was the big right hand the flying right hand boom and then the hammer fist on his way down that was Dan Henderson's logo
Starting point is 00:50:02 another Samoan with just a huge head. His logo was him flying through the air on an unconscious Michael Bisping. Yeah. It's fucked up. Dude. It's like you know that, too. You knock a guy out.
Starting point is 00:50:15 You know the guy's flatlined. And in the periphery, you see the ref over there. I'm like, no way he's going to stop this. You know what I mean? That's how you're trained until the ref comes flying in. Yeah, the ref was too far away. Until Herb Dean comes flying in with those black Skechers, you keep going, man. Skechers.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Don't they all have to wear the rock shoes now? Even the refs? Don't they? I don't know. Do they not get paid either? Oh, look at that. Boom. Jesus Christ.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Damn. That right hand afterwards. Oh, my God. He could have died. Dan Henderson in his prime was so scary. Look at this. It's over, and he still goes. He was mad at his game.
Starting point is 00:50:50 That's his logo right there. What Jamie just froze, that is literally his logo. That's his logo. It's like a Michael Jordan logo. Yeah. Jesus Christ. And God bless his name. It wasn't a hammer fist.
Starting point is 00:50:57 He went straight down. Vengeance. I thought it was a hammer fist. No, it's a perfect right hand punch. It's an elbow. It's actually an elbow. Watch this again. Step. Boom a perfect right hand punch. It's an elbow. It's actually a punch, then elbow. Watch this again. Step.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Boom. Perfect right hand. Out cold. And then boom. It's like a. Dude. That's, dude. That's the kind of shit people die for.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Die for. Bisping, after that, went on to become world champion. Crazy. That's how much of a badass Bisping is. That's pretty badass. He recovered. Fuck yeah, he did. He even lost a fucking eye to Vitor Belfort on steroids. That's as tough of a badass business. That's pretty badass. He recovered. Fuck yeah, he did. He even lost a fucking eye to Vitor Belfort on steroids.
Starting point is 00:51:27 That's as tough as a man gets. That guy fought 10 fights in the UFC with one eye. At least 10. It might have been 11. Yeah. Might have had 11 fights with one eye. And became world champ. And became world champ.
Starting point is 00:51:39 Hey, this dude who's fighting, who's out of Dagestan, who has one eye, who they just brought to the UFC, this middleweight, you know about him? No. Sounds like a villain from Bond. Dude, he's really good, man. Dagestan, he's a striker. How can he pass the commission with one eye? I don't understand it.
Starting point is 00:51:55 I don't understand it. I don't know what's going on. I don't know if they're letting guys because Bisping did it. But this dude, he's got a dead eye. That's his eye. Oh, no, that's my producer, Nick Davis. Sharaputin Magomedov. And look at his right eye.
Starting point is 00:52:14 It didn't used to be like that. He lost it in a fight. He has a zombie eye. It's dead. It's completely dead eye. So if you go and watch his fights. He's a savage? Really good striker.
Starting point is 00:52:26 Fucking super dangerous striker. But I believe he got signed to the UFC. Is he signed to the UFC? Okay, but how does that work? I don't know. This is my question. Maybe he could fight in Abu Dhabi. The latest Russian MMA fighter to be signed to the UFC.
Starting point is 00:52:39 Yeah, he might have to be like that. How does he get sanctioned? He might have to be. He could fight in Cancun, I'll tell you that much. Yeah, you got to fight in certain places. We do anything we want in Cancun. The doctor said the worst thing that can happen to your eyes already happened, therefore you can practice. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Oh, my God. What if you get the other eye fucked up? That's not good. Ugh. Yeah. I don't like that. There was an injection. It was an operation.
Starting point is 00:53:00 He had an injection. The eye had to be made where it was removed. Oh. One might say at this time local anesthesia is administered, but you feel everything. They pierce it from two or three sides. It seems that the puncture is a camera, and the other two are something to pump, unload something there. Have they mastered a fake robotic eye? No.
Starting point is 00:53:19 They're getting close. So when you lose your eye, they try to keep your eye. A lot of times they would remove your eyes because they get infected. So now they try to keep your eyes if you're blind. And the reason for that is that because you have cones in your eyes that don't see light, but they sense light and they regulate your circadian rhythms. Oh, so they won't leave it in? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:37 So when you take your eyes out and you put glass eyes in, the problem with that is that your body can't regulate. You look lit, though. Yeah. So they try to keep your eyes in your head if they can because you actually have cone What's this big? Would you get a blue one? He just wears a lens over the eye? Bisping takes it out and shows everybody He showed it on camera before he takes it out and it looks like a regular eye and then he slides it back in That's a lens. Yeah fucking guy tough as motherfucker alive paid the price
Starting point is 00:54:05 And this guy that's fighting see if you could pull him up Jamie because he's a really good for us one eye tough Yeah, that's that's bisping pulling out his holy Lens that he puts over his eye what about a Jamie find a video of that cat fighting cuz he's really fucking good man God bless him man, but I just but But the thing about having one eye, too, is your depth perception is off. Yeah. He figured it out, though. So this dude, when he began his career,
Starting point is 00:54:35 was really highly touted before he lost his eye. So it's very interesting to see what happens now. And he's still doing the damn thing. Hey, what's the latest on that one welterweight from that Kurdistan area? Oh, Shavkat Rakimov. Yes. He's fighting Jeff Neal. He's a problem.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Look at this, dude. This guy is a bad motherfucker, man. Magomedov is a really good fighter. I'm rooting for him with one eye, dude. I'm shocked. Wait, a guy with a chin-strap beard named Magomedov is tough? That makes sense. And with the Lego haircut? I'm betting on him. I have to for him. With one eye, dude? I'm just shocked. Wait, a guy with a chin-strap beard named Magomedov is tough? That makes sense. And with the Lego haircut?
Starting point is 00:55:07 I'm betting on him. I have to see him. I'm like, I got my money on him. He's a really good striker, and he stands straight up. He's got a very interesting style. Oh, stomped on him. He stands like he's a narrow stance, and he stands very upright. Is this all where he's blind in one eye still?
Starting point is 00:55:23 I can't tell. I think so. Hey, you know, there's that debate, the myth that Mike Tyson wouldn't have sex before fights. Mike Tyson didn't do that. He fucked. Like a myth, right? But some people believe it.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Some fighters do it. Hickson talked about it in Choke. But what about the Dagestan guys? Maybe that's a big part of the reason why they're so strong. The science begs to differ. Science says that lozure to Sasha. And some guys would have sex like, I know Nate Ricard would have sex before. How do you explain the Dagestan strength? They're just so good
Starting point is 00:55:54 at wrestling. I think they could fuck whatever they want. They'd be fine. You don't think like maybe? I mean, you're talking about like the science. But we don't even know if they do that. They might have sex with their wives before fights. They just don't tell us. We don't even know. They don't say it. Like Deontay Wilder has sex. They definitely don't even know if they do that. They might have sex with their wives before fights. They just don't tell us. We don't even know. They don't say it. Like, Deontay Wilder has sex. They definitely don't party like fighters in the United States do. No.
Starting point is 00:56:12 You know what I mean? They don't party and they don't drink. I know some very famous UFC fighters that fucking live like rock stars. Yeah, they don't do that. They don't stay up late. Maybe. They don't party. There's definitely that.
Starting point is 00:56:21 Living clean. Discipline. Discipline. Discipline. Getting up early. Khabib's camp, you have to have a fucking haircut. He'll cut your hair. They give you the bowl cut. The guy can say bowl cut.
Starting point is 00:56:33 You can't be fucking around and having some wacky mohawk. Yeah, Bilal Muhammad told me that. They stop, they pray, they eat together. Five times a day. It's a discipline thing in every area of your life. Bilal Muhammad told me that he would- It's special. I wonder if they ever had
Starting point is 00:56:46 a fighter in their camp that had so much potential and they're like, fuck, this guy's a destroyer. But he was just so into pussy that they just cut him. I don't think you get any pussy over there. You're not even allowed to show public displays of affection. That Megamedoff got in trouble over there because he beat a guy up who was making
Starting point is 00:57:02 out with a girl. On an escalator at a mall. So the guy was kissing a girl and he told him hey you can't do that here and the guy got in his face and they had like a little bit of a scuffle and then later or not like they met again and you know maggie medoff beat his ass but it's like you can't the laws over there are very different the rules are very different it's like it's it's like if you saw a woman uh get slapped by a guy you'd be like hey motherfucker you know over here you can't do that So we have laws
Starting point is 00:57:28 You can't even kiss a girl in public In India either I watched on Worldstar This guy just gave his wife a peck In the ocean or the lake Dude they just A swarm of people just start beating him in the head He walks off they start beating his ass They ran him off the people come just start beating him in the head depends and walks off. They start beating his ass
Starting point is 00:57:45 We do they ran him off the beach got knocked out. Oh We did completely missed it. Yeah, I was talking about in talking about people kissing in public and we'll get the master the Maori or someone Hit him We'll see the replay that Peter pork man. He flew all the way over don't judge That's one of the things both books, the same book. One of the things about watching fights live, I realize, versus commentating is I don't pay attention to a lot of shit. No, me neither. Your friends are there.
Starting point is 00:58:15 You're talking. I've only been live to a UFC card a couple of times without commentating, and one was in Austin, and I barely watched any fights. Everybody was talking to me. We were talking. Too much me. We were talking. Too much fun. We were drinking. Can we get a replay?
Starting point is 00:58:28 Oh, here we go. Let's get a replay. Here it is. Oh, my God. Perfect straight left. Oh, my God. And an uppercut behind it. He was out on his feet.
Starting point is 00:58:37 Oh, my goodness. That was phenomenal. Yikes. Yikes. You got that kind of power in heavyweight. You can go far. Super far. Look at this.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Could he have thrown a final punch on the ground? if he had enough time. Where's the ref? Oh, that's a beautiful straight left. It's that uppercuts Yeah, the uppercuts nasty, but look how clean this left is that's how clean it is like the elbows not up There's no wasted energy Answer yes, he had enough time. Yeah, but yes. He had enough time. He's a professional. Probably a Mark Hunt fan, too. Mark Hunt was the king of the walk away chaos. I feel like Polynesian people can have a lot of excess weight and be fast as fuck. Because of the tattoos.
Starting point is 00:59:14 The tattoos cover all of that. Different body types, man. There's definitely different body types. He's rugged. Built for war, man. Look at the guys behind him. Here's Sog's a really good ref. Yeah, Jason Herzog, excellent referee.
Starting point is 00:59:25 Excellent. Excellent. And never is in the way. What's he sliding in? John Jones? So he's sliding into the bushes? Why are they having him do that? It's a meme.
Starting point is 00:59:39 He's watching. Oh, because he said, let's go Porter Parker. Oh, did he? He's like, okay. Oh, Parker Porter's his let's go Porter-Parker. Oh, did he? He's like, okay. Oh, Parker-Porter's his boy. That's tough. You flew all the way to Australia and get knocked out in fucking 10 seconds. Well, that's the game.
Starting point is 00:59:51 That's the game you play. But what a beautiful fucking KO. I mean, that left hand was so pretty. Oh, dude, this card's been fucking unreal so far. Michael Bisping looking dapper as fuck. Yep. I love that the UFC does this with the fighters, where they give them commentary roles. It's pretty amazing.
Starting point is 01:00:08 Yes, agree. Well, those are the best. Usually, the color guy is always a former fighter. I mean, it should be. Like, in basketball, former player. Look at the NFL. Tony Romo, Troy Aikman, Tom Brady. You're the only color guy ever in history that didn't participate in the sport he's
Starting point is 01:00:24 commenting. Right? You're the only one. That's ridiculous. didn't participate in the sport he's commentating. Right? You're the only one. That's ridiculous. You're so goddamn good it doesn't matter. Like, fuck it. And usually that's like the number one rule. Well, in boxing too, right?
Starting point is 01:00:32 You had to have been a fighter or a basketball player or a football player. Right. Not Joe. Well, Larry Merchant was never a boxer, was he? No. Definitely wasn't. He wasn't? No.
Starting point is 01:00:42 Not professional. He never boxed ever? I don't think so. Maybe. He had to have had some kind of career. I don't think he did. That left hand was so nice. He didn't box. He no never boxed ever. Thanks I don't think that left him box even have to ease look at this left hand look at clean that is Short oh and the right uppercut behind it. I'm not big his legs are Yeah, that's a lot of a lot of power there fellas and that those boys party Let's go hips
Starting point is 01:01:02 His whole crew looks like they're rough man. That's technique behind that right hand It's so impressive that haircut is the left hand work dude. Look at this boy. God damn. Oh Jack Jack's Jackie boy. This is a great fight. What what he's a future five. This is 70 He's the future man and brood boy. Randy Brown is no fucking joke. This is a good fight. I like this. So it's this fight and then the co-main event? Yes.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Main event? Yes. We're going. We're going. It's happening. I think the last three fights are going to last a little longer. I like this fight. Great fight.
Starting point is 01:01:38 I like this fight a lot. Who's Randy Brown fought? He's 6'3", man. Yeah, Randy Brown's tall. From Jamaica. But Jack Della Maddalena has some of the best fucking body work. Yes. The way he rips the body inside.
Starting point is 01:01:53 He goes from the head to the body so well. Like, almost better than anybody. I mean, obviously, he's not fought championship-level caliber fighters to pull that kind of stuff off, but his combinations are so smooth. He's quick. To the head and to the body, he mixes it up so well. He digs to the ribs, and he's always cutting angles on you and landing fucking amazing strikes.
Starting point is 01:02:15 This is a good style matchup for him, really good. Yeah, it's a test. It's a good test. Great test. I mean, Randy's got 16-4 record, and then Jack is 13-2. Very good matchup. He's some more whiskey, Joe. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 01:02:31 And Jack in this setting, fighting in Australia, bro. Bro. The fucking energy. And everybody knows he's the future. Yes. Like, he's a prospect, a real prospect. And every fight that he's had in the UFC has been a fucking spectacular Knockout man because he came from Dana White's contender series. Is this another superhero movie? I'm so sick of this bullshit
Starting point is 01:02:56 Creed Always do this though. They always have like a commercial for a cool movie. I can't get into that ant-man bullshit There's so many superheroes. We're just talking about this the other day. I can't get into that Ant-Man bullshit. There's so many superheroes. We were just talking about this the other day. You can't come up with a new one. Everybody's like, get the fuck out of here. I think that's part of what happened with Black Adam. If Black Adam, if The Rock played Batman,
Starting point is 01:03:16 people would be all in. Let's go! But Black Adam's like, you got another? And I know it's an old superhero. I know it existed. But it was never really a popular one. Right. He was the opposite of the Flash. He was the bad guy to the Flash.
Starting point is 01:03:28 Dude, I saw The Northman that you took. Fuck. The Northman is a badass movie, man. It's just so violent. It's what Vikings really was. Vikings, yes. He said it. Dude.
Starting point is 01:03:38 If you want to see how Vikings really were, watch that movie. The Northman is an amazing movie. Yeah. That movie is fucking amazing. Oh, that actor's phenomenal, too. Dude, it's so good. He's so jacked watch that movie. The Northmen is an amazing movie. That movie is fucking amazing. Oh, that actor's phenomenal, too. Dude, it's so good. He's so jacked in this movie. It's so good. He's from True Blood. He's a dying piece. It makes you think you are in Viking days.
Starting point is 01:03:54 I mean, it's that good. It's like you don't, there's no one there that's like a modern day person. No one behaves, not the women, not the men. Meanwhile, my wife was like, I'm out of here. It's not, it's... No, it's the guy from the Viking show. That show, Viking. No, he's the guy from 300. Not the women, not the men. Meanwhile, my wife was like, I'm out of here. It's not, it's for me. No, it's the guy from the Viking show, that show Viking. No, he's from True Blood.

This is a badass movie It is it's how old is it? Oh this fight. Oh, I thought it was going on. She's scared and I panicked I panicked when did this movie come out screen like a year ago?

Starting point is 01:05:41 That guy's much older Yeah that guy's 80 years old now That's fine Bring it up, Jamie. You watch The Last of Us? Yeah, The Last of Us is great. So fucking good. It's great.
Starting point is 01:05:52 That's a great show. That gay episode? I only saw the first. I cried. Shut the fuck up. It's been out for three weeks, bro. No, I'm just watching it. I'm just watching it now.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Shut the fuck up. What episode are you on? Just watch that one. You spoil everything. You're fucking spoiling it. I figured everyone watches it when it comes out. No, people have lives, bro. It's Sunday night.
Starting point is 01:06:08 They have lives. Sunday night? Some people are just finding out about the show now. Don't fuck it up. It's so good. It's a really good show. Guys, if you like shows, come to my stand-up. Oh, Jesus.
Starting point is 01:06:18 Oh, God. Buy his flip-flops. Shut up, Joe. What are you wearing now? No flip-flops, huh? Weird. It's a great company. Shut up, Joe. What are you wearing now? No flip-flops, huh? It's a great company. I no longer own, I'm no longer a part of Joe White.
Starting point is 01:06:30 The real reason is you fucking broke that shit apart. Did you see Brian Shaw try to pull apart a fucking toilet? We are not going to talk flip-flops. I didn't say anything. I'm not in it. Randy Brown's also 6'3". Very long, very tall.
Starting point is 01:06:47 Especially for a welterweight. Dude, how does he get down to 1'7"? Look at him dancing. Oh, my God. It's got to be a struggle to get to 1'7". That arena is packed. Oh, fuck. Did you see the weigh-ins?
Starting point is 01:06:57 5,000 people this year. Jesus. The weigh-ins were huge. It's like a Burt Kreischer show. For reals. Look at him. Damn. Burt was doing shows around Super Bowl weekend at asu yeah bert's killing with mark norman and shane gillis jesus here we go this is a big fight kids this is a big fight i wonder what uh is ra is um do you think jack is gonna
Starting point is 01:07:20 come out to like some australian yeah something like Land Down Under or something like that. Oh, you have to. Yeah. Oh, that song hits, dude. That song slaps. Oh, you mean Men at Work? Yeah, but what does Volkanovski come out to? Doesn't he come out to that song?
Starting point is 01:07:36 I don't think so. What does Volkanovski come out to? He did it in the States. You know Volkanovski's walking first since the fight's at 55. Interesting. Right, because it's for his title. Makes sense. Has to.
Starting point is 01:07:47 Who do you got on this fight, Joe? This fight right here? I don't know. I want to watch. I mean, I'm very curious. They're both really talented. This is a big test for Jack because I think this is the best guy that Jack's ever fought. Maybe I got Jack.
Starting point is 01:07:59 You got Jack? Yes. Joe said we don't know. Yeah, we don't know. What happens when guys go up in class is you find out. And that's what we're going to do. We're going to find out. Fuck around and find out. Yeah. I mean, we don't.
Starting point is 01:08:12 Sometimes guys go up in class and that's what happened with Hamzat and Gilbert. He went up in class and there was a war. So Hamzat's running through people. Don't know if he runs into Gilbert and Gilbert drops him. Really close fight. Very good fight. See, that's throwing the, and just caution out the window and fighting like a dumbass. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:30 And he still won the fight. Yeah. He fights like that. 85 Hamzat, it's going to be a rough road for him. But he's learned from that. I think he's learned. But he still won that fight. Correct.
Starting point is 01:08:37 Still won that fight. That's how much of a badass he is. Correct. Still won that fight. Gilbert Burns is no punk. What's his music? No punk. What does he got here?
Starting point is 01:08:43 Give me some volume, Jamie. Let me hear the music, the walk-in. He's rough. Fuck. Is it not working? ACDC? Bump. ACDC is always a good choice.
Starting point is 01:09:00 Always and still. Do you not come out to anything? ACDC. I can hear that. Which song is it? Oh, Back in Black! Oh, TNT. Yeah. Good song. Good song. Good song.
Starting point is 01:09:16 Always good with ACDC. Thunderstruck's also a good song. Oh yeah. That was what Rich Franklin used to come out to. You know what song you can't walk out to? Metallica. They don't give the UFC the rights for it. What?
Starting point is 01:09:26 One of the only bands that does it. Come on. You can't walk out to Enter Sandman? Really? Never got to adore Metallica. That seems ridiculous. Someone needs to talk to them. Have Dana talk to your boy.
Starting point is 01:09:36 You know that guy. That seems ridiculous. Is that like a money thing? I don't know. Metallica doesn't fuck around with their rights. They don't fuck around. I guess they don't. Remember Lars from Metallica was the one. Napster.. They don't fuck around. I guess they don't. Remember Lars from
Starting point is 01:09:45 Metallica was the one that went after Napster. What song would you choose? It's not like shocking or anything. Eddie, what song would you choose if you were walking out? Joe, what is that? Tobacco? You vaping? That's a good question. Joe, what song would you choose? Tell them that I'm coming.
Starting point is 01:10:02 By Christina Aguilera? There you go. That was where I would come out to. No matter what they say, words can't bring me down. Ready? Ready? Wait for the dad to yell and cry. Hold on. Wait for it.
Starting point is 01:10:16 It's Michael Fassbender. I know who this is. At least his body was still on this movie. That's him. This guy? Yep, that's him. That's not the guy in the Viking. That is the guy.
Starting point is 01:10:23 That's him. It might be the guy, but he looks like he's 40 there. All you got to do is bring up three. Is that the same guy? They look similar, Bubba. They look similar. They look similar, Bubba, but it's not the same. A little younger.
Starting point is 01:10:32 Jamie, all you got to do is go to 300 and get the cast. Bubba, that actor's 65 right now. Dude, and Avatar's not real either, Brian. But he looks like he's 40. It's not the same actor. Just accept it. Maybe I'm off. Boys, here we go. Maybe he has a younger twin. I promise you. him. It's not the same actor. Let's accept it. Maybe I'm off. Boys, here we go.
Starting point is 01:10:45 Maybe he has a younger twin. I promise you. Here we go. I like that you're doubling down, though. No, I'm not doubling down. I know when I lost. So anyway, Jack. Jack Della Maddalena and Randy Brown.
Starting point is 01:10:58 He's a minus 320 favorite for a reason. Wow. Wow. That's crazy. Just a higher level striker. He's like the next big thing out of that part of the world. He might be just the next big thing. I mean, we're
Starting point is 01:11:09 going to find out. Dude, oh, how about they're talking about Robert Whittaker or Hamzat? That would be amazing. That gets my dick so high. That would be amazing. That's a really good fight at 85 because Whitaker can wrestle. Dude, I think that's the toughest matchup for Hamzat. And he's so clever on the feet. When I think about it, his wrestling, how fast he is, explosive.
Starting point is 01:11:27 That's a tough fucking fight for Hamza. He dealt with Yoel Romero. I mean, Yoel Romero is one of the greatest wrestlers ever fought in the MMA. Is this your Tiger Thick? Yeah. It's good. It's very good, sir. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Good whiskey. Thank you, sir. Here we go. I bet they're going ape shit right now. Boy, Jack's nose is punched. When you hear Jack Della Maddalena, think about Volkanovski.
Starting point is 01:11:50 Here it comes. Damn, a minus 320 favorite. He's the truth. Listen to that crowd. Holy shit. The rafters are packed, son. You know what? I thought it'd be louder.
Starting point is 01:12:03 That's okay. Right? Here we go. Mark Goddard. I mean, the TV's barely on, so. Gold standard. Was Mark Goddard a jiu-jitsu guy, a fighter? What was he?
Starting point is 01:12:11 He looks like it. I'm almost positive he's a black belt. He's fucking jacked as shit. Here we go. It makes me sad when referees are not in good shape. Oh, it bums me out. When they got a pop belly and shit, you're like, hmm. They look like they're in the slap fight league.
Starting point is 01:12:24 There we go. Look how long Randy Brown is. So big. Ooh, he's so long. So tall and long. Look at that jab, too. Crisp jab. And he's talking shit.
Starting point is 01:12:34 Ooh. Oh. Oh, Randy can go. I'm telling you, dude. Randy Brown is no fucking joke. This is a test. Big test. This is a real test.
Starting point is 01:12:42 Come on, Jackie boy. Jack's a beast, though. Nice inside low kick. Hands high. Big test. This is a real test. Come on, Jackie boy. Jack's a beast though. Nice inside low kick. Hands high. Holy fuck, Randy Brown is tall. He's very long and very good with it. He really knows how to use it well.
Starting point is 01:12:55 He looks like he's at... Oh, look at that right hand. Randy Brown with a nice right hand. He looks like a 205-er. Jesus Christ. He'd be the skinniest 205-er in the world. He's a big guy though. Jack's trying to close the distance with that right hand, but he's falling up short.
Starting point is 01:13:08 Jack's landed a couple of those good low kicks to the calf, though. You got to add another weight class to be dramatic. You know what I'm saying? I appreciate it. Yeah, because this is about show business, guys. Oh, look at that front kick up the middle. Very nice. That's what I'm talking about.
Starting point is 01:13:19 I think Makachev's going to do that. That's what Makachev's going to do. He hit another calf kick. He hit another calf kick. Nate Diaz slap fest. He just slapped him. I don't know why he did that. Jack just needs to figure out the distance.
Starting point is 01:13:28 Right now, the distance is the issue. When a guy slaps a guy, I always wonder if he hurt his hand. It's so disrespectful. But it's also one of those things where sometimes you hurt your fucking hand, and you have to slap. So keep an eye on that right hand. Because he might be a little tentative at the right. He might have eye on that right hand. Because he lands. Oh, see. He's a little tentative. A little tentative with the right. He might have hurt his fucking right hand. Because when you watch that slap, that's not normal.
Starting point is 01:13:51 You know, especially. Guys, that speed. Oh, that right hand's compromised. He might have hurt his right hand. I'm with Joe on that. That right hand's a little compromised. There's something about. Yeah, I don't like how he's pulling back on that right hand right now.
Starting point is 01:14:00 Look at the body there. God, his movement is sick. It's very good. But he's, you know, he's smart enough to use all his other tools, and he's got a lot of them. Yikes, yikes. Jackie Boy trying to get the distance. But if that right hand is a problem, that right hand might be a problem, dude.
Starting point is 01:14:13 Might be a problem because he's got openings, and he's not throwing it, and he's got a really good fucking right hand. Oh, oh. Oh! Whoa! There's the mistake. Jack lit him up. Jackie Boy! Oh, this fight's over. Jackie Woo! There's the mistake. Jack lit him up. Jackie Boy!
Starting point is 01:14:25 Oh, this fight's over. Jackie Boy! This fight's over. He was just timing it. Oh, my God. He was going fucking nuts. He's got him. He's got him.
Starting point is 01:14:34 He's got him. He's got his back. Jackie Boy, the real fucking deal, son. Jesus. Real deal, Callan. Jesus, dude. Watch your fucking mouth, dude. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 01:14:42 You've been rooting against him the whole time. Yes, I was. Oh, my goodness. I thought Jack was out of his league. I really thought Randy Brown was against him the whole time. Yes, I was. Oh, my goodness. I thought Jack was out of his league. I really thought Randy Brown was going to tool him up. So did I. The way he was moving, his footwork, and those front kicks.
Starting point is 01:14:52 Those front kicks are crazy. All the feints. I wonder if he did hurt his hand. Dude. I really wonder if he really hurt his hand. Yikes, though. Yeah, Jack reeled him. He just sat in the pocket and just waited for his opening.
Starting point is 01:15:04 Just the distance thing, he went, okay. Beautiful KO. What a beautiful KO. He was out when he went down to the ground and then recovered. Dude, he got rocked so hard. That kid's the real deal, man. Watch this. Let's check it out.
Starting point is 01:15:16 Good God. He slips up, and then he goes, oh, cool, go that way. Yep. Look at his right hand. Boom. Oh, my God. Look at his legs. Oh, twice.
Starting point is 01:15:25 Face plant. Yikes. His legs did the god. Look at his legs. Oh, twice. Face plant. Yikes. His legs did the chicken dance and then Jack's all over him. Hammer fist. Hammer fist. Jack's gonna be a problem, man. I'm telling you. All karate right there. All karate. Hi-ya! I've always said karate's number one, guys. Yep! Boom! Boom! I live in... When I'm not doing stand-up, I'm doing karate.
Starting point is 01:15:41 Bro, when your legs go like that, you're fucked. Oh, look at that. Now he's got the back. He's tapping. He's tapping. We didn't see that angle. I don't know why. I guess because of where the referee was standing. They probably couldn't get a camera there.
Starting point is 01:15:53 Hey, how about this main card, though? That first fight, no punk. That second fight, flatline kill. This fight, ridiculous. Now you're already through the co-main event. We got you here, Josh. These fights are going to last a little longer. I we got Yair and Josh. These fights are going to last a little longer.
Starting point is 01:16:06 I'm so excited about this fight. These fights are going to last a little longer I think. You think so? Perhaps. Who fucking knows,
Starting point is 01:16:11 man. Emmett, Emmett, if he connects you go to sleep and then Yair, death by a thousand cuts. Fuck you. 15 minutes and there's two fights left.
Starting point is 01:16:19 Wow, that's crazy. Two fights left. You're right, it's 10-18. Yeah, dude. That's crazy. That's nuts. The shortest fucking fight card ever. We're at the co-main event already, that's crazy. Two fights left. You're right. It's 10-18. Yeah, dude. That's crazy. That's nuts. The shortest fucking fight card ever.
Starting point is 01:16:27 We'll go have a second dinner. We're at the co-main event already. That's fucking nuts. They'll throw some prelims up. Jack Della. No. They might throw one prelim up. Yeah, that's why they do them.
Starting point is 01:16:35 If there's a good one. That's the whole reason. It's rare. Gotta have backups. Damn, man. 170, baby. I'm so impressed with this guy. What's his background?
Starting point is 01:16:44 Was he a boxer first what was he it's a good question I mean definitely has wicked boxing yeah I don't know what his original
Starting point is 01:16:51 martial art is there's so many guys that just they start out in MMA now they just had high fight IQ some guys have
Starting point is 01:16:57 a high fight IQ man yeah high fight IQ game as fuck nasty power dude to figure out that distance
Starting point is 01:17:04 and then capitalize he's a fucking real deal. And this was a real test. Like, Randy Brown's no joke. Look at this right hand, like right behind here. He's out right here. Look at his face. Those legs just go.
Starting point is 01:17:14 It's never good when your face hits first. No, never good. Jesus Christ. Very impressive. Look at that right hand. And leaping into it, too. Leaping into it to cover the distance. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:17:24 And then he gets the tap with the rear naked. Look at that, man. Maybe. We'll see. Yeah, we'll see. Got a couple more to go. Wild shit. And Taffa, you got to give him for that fucking straight left, too, man.
Starting point is 01:17:34 My God. Oh, he'll get a bonus for sure. Amazing. He's team all body. Listen, Jack just became a superstar. To be on such a... To be watching this fight? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:44 Many people watching this fight and to do it in Australia. I mean, that guy just became a superstar. To be on such a... To be watching this fight? Yeah. Many people watching this fight and to do it in Australia. I mean, that guy just became a superstar. He could 100% headline a card in Australia. If they have like a main event with him at a top...
Starting point is 01:17:55 Yeah, like a top like welterweight guy. Like who? You'd get like a Jeff Neal, you know, like a Shavkat Rakhmanov, like those kind of characters.
Starting point is 01:18:03 That's a lot for Jack right now. It is a lot. But that's like the next step up, right? Like who is hemanov, like those kind of characters. That's a lot for Jack right now. It is a lot. But that's like the next step up, right? Like who is he going to fight after that kind of KO? They're going to have him fight someone legit. Maybe Lupe. Yep. Vicente Luque.
Starting point is 01:18:14 That's a crooked face. Yeah. That'd be a fucking fight. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A Ponzinibbio, maybe that kind of a fight. Luque makes sense. Depends how fast-tracked they want to get him. You beat Luque, you're off to the fucking races.
Starting point is 01:18:25 Vicente Luque. Yes. So he's a-tracked they want to get him. You beat Luque, you're off to the fucking races. Vicente Luque. Yes. So he's a newcomer. Even though he's on a losing streak. He's actually kind of fairly new. That's his fourth knock on the UFC. You know? It's a big deal.
Starting point is 01:18:32 He's coming fast. But now in the UFC, especially at welterweight, 55, 45, you got to get some wins under your belt for you to get ranked. So much talent. So much talent. Oh, my God. It is murderous fucking row. 55, good luck.
Starting point is 01:18:43 One through 50 are fucking savages. And then you got the fucking ultimate fighter, which I guess is at 55. I think they're going to fight at 55. Connor and Chandler are going to fight at 55. And they're allowing guys who had a chance in the UFC to come back. They're allowing guys who had a chance in the UFC before to come back for the ultimate fighter?
Starting point is 01:19:00 That's a good move. That's smart. Uriah Faber in the house. Love Uriah. That guy's fanny pack in the back bothers me. It's a shoulder bag, sir. Do you still carry a fanny pack, Joe? Had it on tonight.
Starting point is 01:19:13 Had it on tonight, sir. There it is. What's in there? Weed and Fear Factor money. I don't get that. Explain that. Fear Factor money. Very good answer, sir. It just doesn't mean anything. It's us, too. Weed and Fear Factor money. Very good answer, sir.
Starting point is 01:19:25 It just doesn't mean anything. It's so stupid. I can't hear you. Old Fairfactor money. Fairfactor money's been gone a decade ago. You went through that shit a long time ago. Yair with the page point haircut. Yair.
Starting point is 01:19:37 There you go. Fairfactor money. He's just a... Weed and Fairfactor money. He's such an interesting fighter, man No one's like Yair In terms of his movement And his kicking dynamics
Starting point is 01:19:50 You know who was? Zabit Zabit was the guy He's a doctor now? He's a doctor Yeah, he retired, man I mean, I guess he just decided He had like the politics of it
Starting point is 01:19:59 And all that shit He wants to be a doctor Wow, he was a talented, talented guy Oh my god Never lost, right? He lost Who? Who did he lose god. He never lost, right? He lost. Who? He lost one, right? I didn't see it. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:20:11 He might have lost a decision in the UFC. Not in the UFC. That's right. Who did he lose it to? He was a nightmare. He lost to some cat. He got caught in an arm bar in 2013. You see Jon Jones' frame? Have you seen how big he is? Big, man.
Starting point is 01:20:26 He's big. Straight up heavyweight. His face is... He's like 255 now. I thought he wasn't even 260, Joe. Maybe. I mean, who knows? We'll see what he weighs in.
Starting point is 01:20:36 I mean, he's been powerlifting for years now to try to get his frame up. So you got to think outside of camp when, I mean, outside of rather cutting weight, when he's not trying to make 205, he probably is walking around like 230 anyway. Yeah, he's 230, almost sometimes 240. The thing is, zero-gun at 260 to be that light on your feet, or 245 to be that light on your feet. Yeah. Fuck.
Starting point is 01:20:56 What about it? Well... What about it? What about it, Brian? Are we going to bet on this? Any amount of money you want. Is that right? John Jones wins that fight, takes him down.
Starting point is 01:21:07 You ready for this? Sure, buddy. I got to go serial gun. Fuck yeah. All right, now what do you want to put on that? There's also one other factor. What? It's John Jones.
Starting point is 01:21:17 I understand. When you are on the opposite cage and you look over and you see John Jones like that, he's never beat a guy of that caliber. This is a caliber. It's also like a cult of personality. He also got out-wrestled by Francis. How much do you want to put on it, Brian? I'm going to bet, and here's why.
Starting point is 01:21:38 Wrestling is a factor. It's a big factor. It's a big factor. But I think Cyril Ghosn is close enough to some of those Eastern European countries. He's getting all these guys in there. Oh, you think that's going to matter? I do. Perfect.
Starting point is 01:21:52 Are you guessing that that's happening? I'm guessing that's happening. He's in France. Sure. Valentina's fighting, too. There's no doubt he's a higher level striker. Yeah? Yes or no?
Starting point is 01:22:01 Valentina and Alexa Grasso, that's a hell of a fight, man. More of a knockout artist. That's a hell of a fight. Alexa Grasso a knockout artist. That's a hell of a fight. Alexa Grasso's got some serious hands. That's a good fight right there. That's a really good fight. What do you think, John? John Jones and Cyril Ghosn?
Starting point is 01:22:13 I won't... You don't know. You don't know until you see what happens. But if you had to put your money... How does John deal with a big, giant guy that can move like Cyril Ghosn does? How does Cyril Ghosn deal with a guy who's got the most fight IQ of anybody that's ever fought in any division? Leave Joe out of this.
Starting point is 01:22:29 Never lost. That one bullshit loss, disqualification. From whooping Hamill's ass. Brian, leave Joe out of this, right? You can't make picks? It's between you and I. How much do you want to bet? I'm going to have to take the bet. I know. You keep saying that. So I got to go Cyril Ghosn. No, you say that. You want to do this here?
Starting point is 01:22:45 Any amount of money you want. All right. Five grand. Oh, my God. You're retarded. That's why. You're betting so much money. I won the last one.
Starting point is 01:22:54 You're betting so much money. I won the last one. I'm ahead. You're going to feel that. You're going to feel. But I take the dogs. I keep taking the dogs to help you out. I appreciate that.
Starting point is 01:23:01 Five's going to hurt your feelings. It's okay, because I'm ahead right now. Five's going to sting. It's going to sting. It's going to sting. Five's going to sting. What's the most you've ever had to pay him before in the past? Three? Three grand is the highest.
Starting point is 01:23:10 I've had to pay him five before. What was it on? I think we're even right now or am I ahead? No, we're even now because I paid you. That was the last loss. I bet against Izzy, Alex, Pierre. Interesting. Which we're going to get my money back, right?
Starting point is 01:23:21 In the rematch. Well, I'm so, so, and I all do respect. It doesn't seem like he's betting in the rematch. It looks like he's not going to bet in the rematch. He's not going to give you a chance. No, he is. He loves Alex. I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:23:30 I look in his face. He wants to keep that five. Hey, man. I think he likes that money. Why are you being an instigator? Doesn't it seem like it? Wait, wait. What are we doing here?
Starting point is 01:23:37 Are you on the rematch? It seems like he doesn't want. I understand where Brian's coming from. Like today, I bet on Islam, but I don't you know, I like them both. I like them both, too. But if I bet $1,000, that means something. That means something.
Starting point is 01:23:54 Brian's just betting. You're not betting for the money. You're betting to make the fight more exciting. Well, I'm also betting because Cyril Gunn, John does get hit. He does get hit, all due respect. A light heavyweight against guys he's not excited for. But you cannot get hit like that by a heavyweight like Cyril Ghosn. And John doesn't know that.
Starting point is 01:24:10 You don't think John knows more than you about fighting? Maybe you should go consult. Maybe you should go down to Fight Ready in Phoenix. No, maybe you should be his movement coach. Yeah, for sure. You know that bullshit? I stay in very good shape. You're a movement coach.
Starting point is 01:24:24 I have a lot of tricks up my sleeve. Bro, is this what Perth looks like? God damn, Perth is fucking beautiful. Oh, Australia is fucking gorgeous. Look how beautiful Perth is. I'm afraid of all that water. I'm afraid of all that water. Listen, if the shit hits the fan in America, let's all move to Perth.
Starting point is 01:24:34 I'm so mad. What? That's the last place we're going to go. Australia? The shit hits the fan? If the shit hits the fan, Australia is going to be like fucking- We got to bring guns. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:42 Yeah. It's going to be tough to get in. They change their laws. When the shit hits the fan You go to Texas Too many things can kill you In Australia Box jellyfish
Starting point is 01:24:49 Wandering spiders Crocodiles Great whites That's like going to Canada If the shit hits the fan Yeah You used to think that Yeah
Starting point is 01:24:58 People used to go to Canada But now everyone's like Get this fucking Authoritarian state Joe how about Arnold Allen Max Holloway That's a great fight.
Starting point is 01:25:06 Arnold's a motherfucker. He's a motherfucker, dude. Max won the greatest of all time. Oh, my God. That's a great fight. I'm a big Arnold Allen fan. I'm a big Arnold Allen fan. You know, his dad was a strongman.
Starting point is 01:25:14 Was he really? His dad was a strongman, and his dad talked about how he would do steroids and tell the kids, because they never touched him, he's like, do not do this. Once you go down this road, there's no going back. So they're like super anti-steroids. Good for them. Did you and Shaw ever podcast? No, no. We have to do that. Love him. down this road, there's no going back. So they're like super anti-steroids. Good for them. Did you and Shaw ever podcast? No, no. We have to do that.
Starting point is 01:25:28 Love him. He's great. He's so weird strong. He's so big. Oh, dude. There he is with his dad. Look at him. Check out the neck on his dad. Jesus Christ, his dad's a tank. Arnold Allen. He's a bad motherfucker, man. Super bad motherfucker.
Starting point is 01:25:43 When Hooker tried to go down at 45, God, that was too much. Tough night for Hooker. Arnold Allen's a bad motherfucker, man. The way he lit up Hooker. Super bad motherfucker. Yeah. When Hooker tried to go down to 45, like, God, that was too much. Tough night for Hooker. Arnold Allen's a motherfucker, dude. He's the dark horse. He's the dark horse in that division. Dude, Josh Hammett, you can't make a mistake against him. Oh, no. Emmitt is a real KO artist.
Starting point is 01:25:58 Emmitt also has experience. Very good wrestler. Geyer has bigger experience in bigger fights, but as far as overall experience, Emmitt has more, but just not as big. Geyer has bigger experience in bigger fights But as far as overall experience, Evan has more But also Emmitt feels a little bit Disrespected Because he wasn't in the conversation For fighting for the title And you're like, hey, he's been knocking a lot of people out
Starting point is 01:26:14 The way he knocked out Michael Johnson Alex had to leave the division Like, alright, you can have the fight And he's like, what the fuck Well, Emmitt is still In the purist's eyes, he's at the top of the heap. He's one of the best guys in the world. That's why this fight is so exciting.
Starting point is 01:26:28 This is a legit interim title fight. Legit. Like, if, you know, Volkanovski retired and he said, I'm giving up, I'm putting my crown down, I'm done. These are the guys. These are the guys. And what's interesting, if, look at this shit, man. Jesus Christ. What I was going to say, if Jair wins, you have two Mexican champions,
Starting point is 01:26:49 and Brandon Moreno and him. Viva la Mexico. Viva la Mexico. I know who my girl's going for. Look at those fucking kicks, man. I mean, his shit is so wild. He's fun. He's so fun to watch.
Starting point is 01:27:00 Josh Elmett, man, if you're in front of that dude and he catches you, you're fucked. Yes, you are. I mean, even Calvin Cater, who's a wicked boxer, man, he was getting rocked. And Josh has a chin, too. Did Calvin win that fight or he lose? Do you remember when he lost to Jeremy, though? Yes.
Starting point is 01:27:12 Jeremy Stevens, that was one of Jeremy's best KOs ever. Ever. That was a violent KO. Oh, Jesus. Boom, that's that kick you were talking about earlier. Look at that. That's a 360 roundhouse kick. That elbow was insane. Green zombie. No, he's that kick you were talking about earlier. That's a 360 roundhouse kick. That elbow was insane.
Starting point is 01:27:26 No, he's super talented. But the question is, will he be able to throw all that wild stuff when he's dealing with this one-punch powerhouse in front of him? Look at that left hook, bro. His fundamentals are stupid. I'm betting on fundamentals this time. Well, he does have great fundamentals, and he's a fucking tank. Meat and potatoes. He's a tank, and he's a fucking tank. Meat and potatoes.
Starting point is 01:27:46 He's a tank, and he's got really good wrestling, too. He just needs to land one. You got Emmett? I got Emmett, yeah. Ooh. I think I got Yair. Listen, the way Yair performed against Max Holloway, I was truly, truly impressed. Me too.
Starting point is 01:27:59 Because that was a big step up, and Holloway is a motherfucker, dude. Holloway's a motherfucker, and that was a hell of a fuck. Yeah, I don't think it's a matter of Holloway is a motherfucker, dude. Holloway is a motherfucker and that was a hell of a fuck. Yeah, I don't think it's a matter of Holloway like falling off. I just think these guys are fucking good. They're so good. And like the Volkanovski that destroyed Max Holloway in that trilogy fight, that Volkanovski I'm like, holy fuck.
Starting point is 01:28:18 Talk about a moment. Have you guys seen Physical 100? I heard about it, yeah. Oh, dude. Oh, don't spoil it. I fucking love it. I'm obsessed with it. Have you seen it? It's the strongest people in Korea.
Starting point is 01:28:31 Akiyama's in it. Yes. Sexy Yama's in it. Yeah, Sexy Yama, dude. But the physical challenges are unbelievable. They're riveting. You've got to see it. It's like Squid Games. Yeah, it looks really wild.
Starting point is 01:28:42 They're like fighting over a ball and shit. Oh, dude. Yeah, it's pretty wild shit. But like fighting over a ball and shit. Oh, dude. Yeah, it's pretty wild shit. But some of it gets even better when they break into teams. On pirate ships. Oh, you didn't realize how big Koreans and saucy they get, huh? They get strong. They're cheeked up, dude.
Starting point is 01:28:55 Cheeked up. Cheeked up. Tits. And Koreans are no joke. Mud. But they have an American in it. They have a black dude in it who's a dancer who speaks fluent Korean. It's wild.
Starting point is 01:29:05 Yeah. Here goes Josh Emm. It's wild. Yeah. Here goes Josh Emmett. Jacked. Yeah. Wild fucking show and a great idea. It's a great show. I mean, look. National wrestlers on that.
Starting point is 01:29:14 That girl's on their national wrestling team. Whoever gets the ball at the end of whatever the time limit is. Now, are they USADA tested? I'm just asking. Is it one game or do they mix up games? It's not one game. So why would it be USADA? Different games.
Starting point is 01:29:25 It's like Squid Games, man. USADA, United States. But they're the Olympic athletes. They have Olympic gold medalists in it and all kinds of stuff. Look at this. What's the goal? Do they have money? It's the strongest, most physical person.
Starting point is 01:29:37 No, no, they have a ball, and then what are they trying to do? It's every athletic thing you can think of. The ball wants whoever can keep the ball at the end of the, like, whatever, five minutes. Look at Akiyama, still doing the damn thing. end of the whatever, five minutes. Look at Akiyama still doing the damn thing. Still doing it. I mean, how old is Akiyama now? He's in his 40s. He's so smart. When you see how strategic his brain is, he's really brilliant.
Starting point is 01:29:53 And are they allowed to punch? No, no, no. This is all, it's all different things. You want me to tell you what the first challenge is? Yes. The first challenge is they lower this big grid and everybody has to hang on. The person that can hang on the longest out of 100, they only take that. So they break it in the first 50.
Starting point is 01:30:10 They're there right there. There it is. Oh, my God. Look at Akiyama. Some of these motherfuckers, though, you got to see it because there's a technique. So you can hang on with your arms. Yeah, you can put your arms over it. But here's the problem.
Starting point is 01:30:22 You might break your arms. You'll tear your shoulders apart to the point where. Is that what happens in the show? You're not fucking made for it then. Yeah. It But here's the problem. You might break your arms. You'll tear your shoulders apart to the point where is that what happens in the show? You're not fucking made for it then. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:29 Survivor of the Finals. Wow. Jamie. Jamie. I'm with Jamie though. Three seconds. The giant fat guy. He's like,
Starting point is 01:30:34 I'm not going to make this. I'm with Jamie. Jamie becomes a different guy during fighting games. But here's the thing. It's like COVID. Only the strong survive. But they have a gold medalist
Starting point is 01:30:41 gymnast and they have a strong man. So it depends on the event. It's really interesting. Josh Emmett. Look at that beard. strongman. So it depends on the event. It's really interesting. Josh Emmett. Look at that beard. You sold it, B. You sold it.
Starting point is 01:30:47 It's good. What do you think about this Josh Emmett beard? It's a championship beard. Does it help? Does a beard in any way, are there any studies where it actually helps? They used to, in boxing, not let you have a beard. Right. And back in the boxing days, they made guys shave their beards.
Starting point is 01:31:02 Even when I was boxing, they made me shave. You know, bullshit. It's like padding, right? But is it really? No, it can't be. Because remember Kimbo's beard? I mean, it doesn't seem like it would be. I don't know, though. I mean, I guess it's the most minimal amount of padding. So, like, if you have, like, a piece of cloth around
Starting point is 01:31:17 your chin, it'd be the same amount of... I guess it's something. Some of those deep beards, like that Johnny Hendricks, like that deep, or Kimbo's beard was like dense? Heavy, dense beard, yeah. Maybe. Maybe it's like a little bit of a cushion. Maybe.
Starting point is 01:31:30 I think dreads, if you have really thick hair and you have dreads, I feel like that's a bit of a helmet. Well, it also, if you get hit, but it also makes it a problem if you get caught in something, I would imagine. Yeah, you can't get out. It's easy, right? If you have a shaved head and you're slippery and sweaty, you can pop out of shit easier than if you have dreads.
Starting point is 01:31:45 But some of those football players who have really thick dreads- Not an advantage. Not an advantage. How so? Well, just extra padding. Extra padding, yeah. They're getting hit so hard. No, it doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:31:54 They're getting lit the fuck up. They're getting hit in the chest and getting concussions. They made a Ricky Williams rule because they used to tackle him by his dreads and rip him off. Oh, Jesus Christ. Oh, Jesus. It's hanging out. It's walking. Yeah. If it's hanging out, you can grab it. That's wild.
Starting point is 01:32:09 Is it still like that? I don't know. I thought so. So guys get cocky. They let their shit go. Derrick Henry has long braids, and he's a running back. There's no way. I think they made that a rule.
Starting point is 01:32:20 I would guess. You can't grab from behind anymore. Remember the old days of the UFC where you could grab hair when Royce had chemo? Yeah. Or excuse me, he had chemo. By that braid? He was holding on by his fucking braid. How about when elbows to the
Starting point is 01:32:36 back of the head were still legal? You didn't even need a rear naker choke. It wasn't even necessary. Would you make those legal again? You just put the hooks in and you drop the fucking elbows. Fight them. You take three and it's done. Jamal Hill was here the other day.
Starting point is 01:32:49 We were just talking about that. He was talking about Henzo. When Henzo had that fight. Against the judo guy? Yeah. What's his name? Spiker. Spiker.
Starting point is 01:32:56 That's right. And he got his back and just elbowed the fuck out of him. Elbowed the back of his head. And I was like, that was the best place to be. But why is the back of the head prohibited? I get that it's dangerous. But isn't the temple dangerous? And that's fine.
Starting point is 01:33:10 It all seems like it's very vulnerable. If there's one spot, like you're trying to hit the chin, you're trying to catch people on the nose, you're trying to catch people in the temple. In the eye. You could punch in the eye. It's so soft. Your knuckles, like Chuck Liddell would dig his knuckles in guys' eyes. But think about a head kick when it wraps around. Yeah, you hit it all the time.
Starting point is 01:33:29 We talked about that. Wheel kicks all the time hit the back of the head. Wheel kick, round kick. Rear naked chokes would be unnecessary. All you would need to do is get someone's back, get them face down, drop three elbows, fight over. It's too savage. How much is it that much more dangerous, or is it one of those things like the 12-6 elbow
Starting point is 01:33:44 that doesn't make any sense? Didn't what's-his- or is it one of those things like the 12-6 elbow that doesn't make any sense? Didn't what's-his-name beat Josh Barnett that way with the 12-6? Travis Brown. Travis Brown. But he was doing the side. He was? He was going inside. It was the temple.
Starting point is 01:33:53 He was doing that while Josh was trying to take him down. Yeah, right. Yeah, Travis Brown did that to a few guys. It became the Travis Brown. That was his thing. That's what we call it, because it was so good. If anybody's going to make those elbow strikes to the back of the head legal, it would be one, right? Correct.
Starting point is 01:34:06 Because they could do soccer kicks. Right, right, right. I mean, soccer kicks are legal, but elbows to the back of the head aren't? But they soccer kick the back of the head, too, man. Yeah, I don't like that. Yeah. They soccer kick the shit out of people. It would be awesome if one brought the elbows.
Starting point is 01:34:18 You know, one, it's going to be interesting if they keep the same rules with the commission here, because one's coming to Denver in April. Are they going to have stomps? I don't know. That's my question. That's a good question. Are they going to keep the same rules with the commission? I one's coming to denver in april are they gonna have stomps i don't know that's what my question dude that's the same rules because with the commission because i would imagine i think coming to broomfield events on our first bank center no and it's it's uh mighty mouse and homeboy who beat him what's his uh uh who's the guy who fucking beat him the giant fucking guy they don't even look like the same weight class but yeah anyway it's coming the one that Mighty Mouse beat in the rematch. No, Mighty Mouse
Starting point is 01:34:47 didn't beat him, did he? The guy who KO'd him with the knee? Is it Marais? You know what I'm talking about? Dude, 5'11 to 5'6. Marais 3, yeah, so it's the third fight. So this is the guy that Mighty Mouse KO'd in the rematch. Adriano Marais. So he KO'd
Starting point is 01:35:03 Mighty Mouse. The first time? Yes. And then Mighty Mouse KO'd him. No, it was a knee. And then Mighty Mouse KO'd him with a knee. Like revenge with the exact same technique. So it's the third fight. It's going down in Denver now. Interesting. On Amazon, yeah. What else is... That's interesting. I like that Amazon is getting
Starting point is 01:35:20 in the mix. I like that. And I think Amazon's doing like six fights in the States. They're coming over here. I love it. I I think Amazon's doing like six fights in the States. They're coming over here. I love it. I love that they're doing that. So who else is on the cards? Does it say anything?
Starting point is 01:35:30 No. Hey, here we go. Boys, this fight's about to go down. May 5th. I said April. It's May 5th. This is it. It's time.
Starting point is 01:35:38 Look at that, man. Where's your money? You've been very neutral, Joe. You got to quit asking Joe. I'm a fucking professional. You can't make picks, dude. I'm a professional. You've been very neutral, Joe. You gotta quit asking Joe. I'm not fucking professional. You can't make picks, dude. I'm a professional. You can't make picks, Pete.
Starting point is 01:35:49 I don't make picks. He's not allowed to? No. How long have we been doing this? I don't know. First of all, I have zero idea. And I'm honest about it. You're also not allowed to.
Starting point is 01:35:57 Oh, he's not allowed? And I can't even bet. No. I can't even bet. What are you trying to do, asshole? It's literally not legal anymore. Because that James Krause thing no one can have that Can't you predict you can't is it an iceberg? I heard it's getting oh, so there's more stuff
Starting point is 01:36:13 Oh, no, Joe you can't predict you can't even talk about who you think I could but I really don't know I honestly have no idea. I mean, I don't know either. I would never say I would never say I think this guy's gonna win because I don't fucking know I'm interested tell you. I would never say, I would never say, I think this guy's going to win because I don't fucking know. I'm interested. I'm very interested to see what happens stylistically because Yair is so fleet of foot. He's so light on his feet. He throws shit that you're just not going to see from a lot of people unless you're training with a karate champion. It's up to 30 and Emmett's 37.
Starting point is 01:36:40 There is. This is Emmett's chance. Like after this for Emmett? This is it. This is your one shot. Late 30s, natural. There's not a lot of time left. Especially at 35 or 45.
Starting point is 01:36:55 45 is a talent stack division. At his age, this is it, buddy. We talked about Arnold Allen. We talked about fucking Elio Teporia when we were eating dinner. Problem. Teporia is a problem for everybody. Everybody. Ilia Toporia is fucking dangerous, man. What he did to Bryce Mitchell was fucking disrespectful.
Starting point is 01:37:10 Did it on his feet and did it on the ground. Disrespectful. He just ran at him. Bryce said he had the flu. He had the flu and then recovered. I mean, I'm sure it had an effect, but also he got beat up. I mean, you know, it's hard to say whether or not the fight would have been different if he was healthy.
Starting point is 01:37:26 I mean, I'm sure he would have felt better. Bryce said I shouldn't have took the fight, but I needed the money. He goes, I had like whatever. Makes sense. He goes, I had $700 in my bank account. I need to buy more chickens for his farm because I have to take the fight. Here we go. Bryce is still a bad motherfucker.
Starting point is 01:37:40 Fuck yeah. I mean, I would have definitely liked to see that fight if he wasn't ill. Me too. If that's true. It's still a very tough fight though i don't think she took the fight in the first place elliot tabore is no joke so good he's so good striking oh killer he's good at it it's also just more just looks like a better athlete stronger just i don't know more muscular tough who did ko at 55 was it jai herbert yeah right that's right tough. Who did he KO at 55? Was it Jai Herbert? Yeah, right? That's right.
Starting point is 01:38:05 Yeah. There we go. I mean, at 55, after he got head kicked in the first round. Remember that? But with Bryce, you know, he's very one-dimensional, but so dominant at it, too. Yeah, he's very good. But he outstruck Barboza, too. He did.
Starting point is 01:38:16 Well, the threat of the takedown was always there, right? Correct. He's so dangerous. Teporia didn't give a fuck. Here we go. Look at that. Yair's throwing those front kicks up the front. That's that Makachev front kick, guys. Oh, boy. Oh, throwing those front kicks up the front. That's that Makachev front kick, guys.
Starting point is 01:38:25 Oh, boy. Oh, we got him with that low kick. That's that Makachev low kick. Yair is so light on his feet. Look how he moves so much different than everybody else. He's just light. He's a lot bigger, isn't he? He's long, that's for sure.
Starting point is 01:38:35 And he's tall. He's like Lyoto Machida at.2. Nothing like Lyoto. With Emmett, though, it's like you can't make any mistakes. No, he just needs one. He's looking to launch on your chin. But Jair on the outside with those kicks is such a danger. Oh, that kick to the body hurt him, man.
Starting point is 01:38:52 That kick to the body hurt him. Yeah, he looks hurt. Yeah, he's hurt. That right kick, or the right side of his body, rather, that left kick. That's why he's moving like this. I think he got liver kicked there. I agree. Yikes.
Starting point is 01:39:03 He's recovering now. That's a tough recovery. Yeah, that was a hard shot. Do people recover from that? Yeah, you can, but you gotta be tough as shit and you gotta stay on the outside. It takes a hot second, though. It takes a hot second, Eddie.
Starting point is 01:39:15 He's fighting at Yair's range. This is a very dangerous range for Josh. Every time he tries to close the distance, he's getting his legs lit up, he's getting threatened with a body in the head. Look at that. Oh! Here his punches are crisp.
Starting point is 01:39:28 That kick to the fucking body in the right hand behind it. Yeah, the punches off the kicks. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Josh is struggling with the distance right now. Oh, my goodness. And his movement. His lateral coming in and out.
Starting point is 01:39:38 Oh, my goodness. Well, he's got to fight on the outside until he closes the distance. And on the outside, it's a nightmare with Yair. Before I met this bet, I didn't know Josh Emmett was a redhead. He's a ginger in that place. Oh, again to the body. Caught him with that left. Josh just needs one. Oh, Josh caught him!
Starting point is 01:39:54 But I don't know why Yair's getting in this. Don't get in a slug fight. Oh, that kick is nasty. Beautiful. He slides off to the right and lands that straight left. Boy, Yair looks fucking good. This reminds me of that Randy Brown fight so far. I'm with you, Eddie. A little bit. This reminds me of that Randy Brown fight so far. You know what I mean? Yeah, kind of.
Starting point is 01:40:06 I'm with you, Eddie. A little bit. If Emmitt gets your time down, he lands one, you're in trouble. But the difference is Yair from the other. Oh! Oh, he stands right in front of him. You're in real trouble. I don't like it when Yair was playing that rock-em-sock-em with him.
Starting point is 01:40:18 You don't want to play out with Emmitt. Ooh! Yeah, you don't. Oh, good kick. You definitely don't. He's lighting him up with that left kick to the body, man. That left kick to the body is so dangerous. I don't like Emmitt lunging in like that.
Starting point is 01:40:28 Look at Emmitt's side. Look at the side. Look at the side. Look at the red that is. Oh, my God. There's a problem with being that white, dude. It's true, right? It's true, though.
Starting point is 01:40:35 Yeah, yeah. Everybody knows. Yep. You can't hide it. It's like body paint. I'm telling you, Yari's going to be a problem for everybody. Oh! Oh!
Starting point is 01:40:42 That was filthy. That wheel kick into the right hand. To the right hand. And by the way, when you're Josh, you see that thing whiz past your face. Like, oh my God, that's night-night. He's the only guy who beats Volkanovski at 45, in my opinion.
Starting point is 01:40:53 Will you just shut the fuck up? Nope, I will not. You have zero idea. Let's see if he gets past this, B. Oh! Oh, he got caught! Josh caught him! Josh caught him!
Starting point is 01:41:01 Oh my God! Josh caught him! Josh caught him! Yes, he did. Josh can knock him out. Josh caught him again! Josh can knock him out if he plays that game. Oh no, oh no, don't play that. Oh, my God. Josh caught him. Josh caught him. Yes, he did. Josh can knock him out. Josh caught him again. Josh can knock him out if he plays that game. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:41:07 Oh, no, no, no. Don't play that game. Oh, Yair's on his back. Yair! I got money on you. Please. Yair's dangerous down here, man. What did I say?
Starting point is 01:41:13 His guard's dangerous. What did I say? He called it, just like the back. Exactly what you said. Exactly what you said. Take his back, Abbott. Oh. Oh, he's hitting him with bombs.
Starting point is 01:41:21 Oh, Yair's in real trouble. Oh. He hits so fucking hard, dude. Oh, Yair's in real trouble. He's trying to roll, and his arm's trapped. His arm's trapped. He's going to bombs. Yair's in real trouble. Yair's in real trouble. He's trying to roll and his arm's trapped. He's going to mount. Push the knee down, Emmett. This is big.
Starting point is 01:41:33 This is big for Emmett, man. This is so big. Big shot from the top by Emmett. That's that team alpha. Ground and pound, daddy. Side control again. He's just shucking off those attempts. 50 seconds.
Starting point is 01:41:45 Come on, Yair. 50 seconds. Look who's rooting for Yair Rodriguez. He has money on it. How much you got on this, Brian? I bet $4 million, guys. I don't have the money. Are you going to bet back the five you won on the Izzy fight?
Starting point is 01:41:57 Because it seems like you're not. Yeah, you get back out of that. It seems like you're winning in Vegas. This is not Vegas. I'm waiting for him to fight Volkanovski. Oh, elbow by Josh Emmett. Josh is fucking him up right now. Oh, that was a big elbow from the top.
Starting point is 01:42:11 And he's so dangerous in the guard here with 20 to go. He's so good. Yair's dangerous in the guard. Yeah, but I'm saying Josh Emmett is so good at landing bombs from the top in the guard. Yair's going to be fine. His base is so strong, it's really hard to do anything with him when he's on top of you like this. Josh landed some big shots. Oh, elbow from the bottom by Yair.
Starting point is 01:42:28 That's very Tony Ferg. Oh, my God, these are nasty. Tony Ferg right there. Shout out to Tony Ferg. These are nasty shots. Big Ferg. Nasty shots off the bank. More damage.
Starting point is 01:42:35 Oh, it's over. It's over. Round's over. Great round for Josh. I don't know. Great round for Yair, bro. Hey, great round for Yair. Listen.
Starting point is 01:42:44 Did he land any of those elbows clean? He landed a few. From the bottom? He landed a few from theair, bro. Hey, great round for Yair. Listen. Did he land any of those elbows clean? He landed a few. From the bottom? He landed a few from the bottom, yeah. We'll be able to see. His head's so fucking white. His face is very clean. His face is very clean.
Starting point is 01:42:53 A little swelling. Well, who would you give that round to, Brian Callen? I'd give it to Yair. No. Come on. It's a significant strike. What do you mean? Significant strike.
Starting point is 01:43:01 He got on top of him. He was in a dominant position. He beat him up. For a little bit. No, B, they judge it based off damage done. Who did the most damage that round? No, no. Who did the most damage, period, in that round?
Starting point is 01:43:12 I would say, watch. I would say, Yair, it's even. It's very even. Look at that. Right there. Look at that. Well, it's hard to say. If you really think about it and you look at all the significant strikes landed,
Starting point is 01:43:23 Yair did land some amazing kicks. And look at that left kick to the straight left hand. For three minutes. Yep. Boom! Oh, look at that right hand, though. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 01:43:33 That's the problem. Suck it, Cal. But having Josh Emmett on top at the end of the fight beating you up looks really good to the judges. Except for in the end. Really good to the judges. Except for in the end when he was catching them. But if those strikes were really significant in the beginning, then he wouldn't have been on the back getting fucked up.
Starting point is 01:43:52 Here we go. No, no, they were significant. In your face, Brian. They were very significant strikes. No, but what I'm saying is he ended up on his back. Yes. We've got a contentious conversation going. It's a great fight.
Starting point is 01:44:02 It's a great fight. It's what we want. I'm interested. I'm interested. The thing is, when a guy's on the top, and he's been on the top for the last couple of minutes of the round- The judges give it to you. The judges give it to you a lot of the time. Especially not straight up.
Starting point is 01:44:12 And yeah, the end of the round, it's like, that's more of a round. If you're doing an insane- Because if what you did in the beginning of the round meant a lot, you wouldn't be fucked up at the end of the round, right? But you have to be doing a lot of damage when you're on top. Don't you see, though? He did do a lot of damage. He did do a lot of damage. He did do a lot of damage.
Starting point is 01:44:26 Oh! Oh, my God! Emmitt just caught his fucking chin, dude. Brian, don't get in that slugfest. Please don't get in that slugfest. Beautiful kick to the body. He pulls out of it. Oh, my goodness.
Starting point is 01:44:37 He's hurt. Oh, shit. Emmitt's hurt, but he's a fucking badger. Yeah, but- He's a red-kicked badger. Hands up, please. But that left kick to the body is a real problem. Oh, shit!
Starting point is 01:44:47 Oh my god, Yair's catching him again. He caught him again to the body. And again! Oh my god, and again! Oh my god, Josh Emmett. Don't sit there. His right side is getting fucked. There's the Travis Brown. I know. Boom, boom. Oh my goodness. He's gonna get him down? Is he grabbing the cage?
Starting point is 01:45:03 Nope. Alright. They're saying it's the back of the head. Again, the back of the head. I would like to talk to a doctor about this and find out what is the significance. Maybe you don't have the same protection back there. You certainly don't. It's the base of your spine. It's a fucking dangerous spot.
Starting point is 01:45:19 But then, isn't the temple too? Oh, look at that knee to the body. Nice. But he's coming in close. I get nervous when he gets close because he fucking has his hands down. This is a great fight, kids. Oh, it's such a good fight. This is a great fight.
Starting point is 01:45:32 Yair looks so good. Oh, again with that kick. That left kick is money. Goes up high with it. That left kick is so money. Josh is beat. Oh, my God. He's swinging for the bleachers, though.
Starting point is 01:45:44 Boy, that thing lands though Woo Uh oh Look at that Oh look at that elbow Oh my god Nasty elbow Oh my god
Starting point is 01:45:50 Nasty elbow Oh Yair is so good dude Watch how you're Nice block there by Yair Ginger Badger dude Look how tall Yair is too Ginger Badger For this weight class
Starting point is 01:46:00 Ginger Badger Emmitt just puts his head down And throws though If you're in that Oh look at that low kick Hands up please Those fucking kicks from Yair This weight class. Ginger Badger. And it just puts his head down and throws, though, if you're in that. Oh, look at that low kick. Hands up, please. Those fucking kicks from my ear are a problem to solve.
Starting point is 01:46:10 Correct. It's such a problem. Correct. Because he's. Look at that question mark kick. Oh, my goodness. Question mark. Question mark. Dude, I'm no striker, but the way he punches off the kicks is.
Starting point is 01:46:19 Amazing. Insane. Yeah, right? So creative. Before they could counter, he's already there. Yes. I'm telling you. He's doing kicks with a hand behind it.
Starting point is 01:46:26 It's insane. That's insane. Volkanovski, that's the scary fight. Hey, man, Volkanovski's fighting Makachev. Be quiet. I'm just telling you. I'm nervous for that main event. Like if the kicks weren't crazy and unpredictable enough, he's always going to have some punches
Starting point is 01:46:39 behind him. If the kick doesn't land, you got a hand coming behind him. He's such a good striker, man. He, to me, is a perfect example of a Taekwondo guy that learned everything else. Because the speed and the technique and the fluid. Look at that. He's threatening you with everything. Oh, scissor knee.
Starting point is 01:46:54 That landed, dude. It landed. Damn. He got taken down. Oh, my God. That knee was flush. Okay, but now here we are again. Minute 44.
Starting point is 01:47:02 At this point, he still wins because in the first round, he got put on his back from a punch. But we don't know what Josh is going to do to him. No, at this point, he's going to do damage here. At this point, you're right. If Josh gets on top of him. But right now, Yair is holding himself. Oh, these are good. These are good off his back.
Starting point is 01:47:18 Look at that. Oh, these are good. These are good. These are very good elbows. Look at that. Oh, my God. So dangerous off his back with those elbows. See, right now, you'd still give it to Yair.
Starting point is 01:47:25 And you put your feet on the hips. You hold him up. Because when a guy's coming into your guard, that's when you can throw those elbows. But if a guy doesn't want to be in your guard, then you can't throw those elbows. He'll just stand up. Josh has not done anything to him while he's had him in this position. So Yair is looking to get feet on the hips and maybe push away. But in the meanwhile, he's holding him.
Starting point is 01:47:43 He's controlling him. Josh is not landing anything clean. Oh, triangle right there. Look at that. Oh, look at it. Trying to set it up. Trying to set it up. Trying to set an arm up, too.
Starting point is 01:47:49 Trying to set the arm up. Back to the triangle. Go back to the triangle. Oh, back to the triangle. The elbow. Oh. Oh, he cinched it up. Oh, he's got it.
Starting point is 01:47:57 Are you kidding me? Oh, dude. Oh, my goodness. He got it. He got it. He's done. He tapped. He tapped.
Starting point is 01:48:02 Oh, wow. I'm fucking believable. Wow. Jesus, don't ever sleep on Yfucking-believable Jesus Don't ever Sleep on Yair Holy shit Don't sleep on Yair God damn
Starting point is 01:48:08 What is Yair saying to him Yair's talking to him About his heart He's complimenting him On his heart Dude that was An incredible Fucking fight
Starting point is 01:48:16 He's a pro-blame Everybody What a fight What a fight that was What a fight that was He was the favorite You owe me money on that I'm so impressed With the way he kicks.
Starting point is 01:48:27 The way he kicks on the outside, man, that's a fucking problem for everybody. That question mark kick he sneaks in over the shoulder like Wonder Boy does. He's a nightmare. He's a fucking nightmare. Well, it's the kicks that are followed with the hands. I've never seen that. I've really never seen that. That's Volkanovski's biggest problem.
Starting point is 01:48:42 Because what you were saying earlier, he's got big kicks. Look at that knee to the body that gets out of the way. Look at that elbow. That short elbow. That hurt him bad. He saw that he could do it. He walked up to him and did it.
Starting point is 01:48:56 Look at this flying knee. Boom! On the chin. Jesus, he's a nightmare. How about Josh Emmett's toughness? He takes him down into a triangle. Josh's chin is ridiculous. How perfect.
Starting point is 01:49:04 Amazing. How perfect is that? Perfect. But nobody has him down into a triangle. Josh's chin is amazing. How perfect is that? Perfect. But nobody has a chin after a while. Perfect. Set it up. Went for the arm. Defended the arm. Set up the triangle.
Starting point is 01:49:12 Yeah, they should have showed. Look at that. They needed to show the setup to that triangle. They showed the ending. The setup is beautiful. You got an ice bee? Yeah. Wouldn't it be cool if you had a little number to the production booth to get replaced?
Starting point is 01:49:25 Yes, it would be cool. Well, when I'm doing commentary, I can ask for shit. It's nice. It's nice to be able to ask for shit. Damn, Yair is good. Boy's family came from a far distance. He's got the hat on. Look at that.
Starting point is 01:49:40 Fuck yeah, Yair. He's going to be a problem. What's his ranking? Number one now? Yeah. He's got to be number one now because he's the interim champion. Yeah, he's the interim champion. He's gonna be a problem What's his ranking? Number one now? He's gotta be number one now Because he's the interim champion He's a fucking nightmare In that second round the difference was
Starting point is 01:49:53 If that round would have ended and he wouldn't have tapped him Even if he didn't try He still won the round First one though He got put on his back because he got hit He keeps getting better and better. It's his time. It's just his time.
Starting point is 01:50:08 You got to relax. Brian, you got to relax. I will not relax on your ear. You just like. I'm on his nuts. You're like a sports guy or something. What do you mean? If I had to do commentary with a guy who does basketball, that's what it's like.
Starting point is 01:50:19 They want to talk about fighting. You go, no, no, that's not real. Steve Naismith. I pick my winners. I pick my winners and I'm right. Can you imagine if ESPN tried to insert one of those guys in the commentary booth with DC? Oh my god.
Starting point is 01:50:35 Well, it was a play-by-play guy. Yeah, it was a play-by-play guy for sure. But those guys would always be commenting. Color guy. But people who don't know the sport is what I'm saying. There was a few of those guys in the beginning, in the early days, that didn't know the sport, and they were sports guys. And they would commentate like they would commentate on a basketball game.
Starting point is 01:50:52 Totally. And it's like, also, you can't be, you can be disrespectful when you're commentating on basketball. You better not be disrespectful when you're commentating on a fight. No, it would kill you. Like when C. May Smith disrespected whoever it was, Conor. Everyone's like, excuse me, sir? I had to defend Conor. It's like, you know what the fuck
Starting point is 01:51:08 you're talking about? Conor did not show up. I'm like, he fucking showed up. Yeah, I love you did that. He showed up. What are you talking about? He got cracked. You know what you're talking about. Like, when you get cracked like that, first of all, he broke his nose or the shoulder in the clinch. But you know what it's like? And they lit him up and then caught him with a head kick. You know what it's like, Joe? If they put you into the NBA,
Starting point is 01:51:24 if they put you into the NBA, I wouldn't know what the fuck was going on. You'd say shit like, Joe? You're giving head kicks, sir? If they put you into the NBA, if they put you into the NBA, and you just started- I wouldn't know what the fuck was going on. You'd say shit like that? Yeah, exactly. You'd be like, I don't think LeBron, he's just off. Like, what the fuck are you talking about?
Starting point is 01:51:32 That was amazing. Amazing. That was amazing. I'd say, man, these guys are sweating. What a dunk. Look at that shot from the outside. I commentated for Pride a couple times, and it's like a Japanese crew, right?
Starting point is 01:51:43 What a flex. We were in the American broadcast team, and it's like a Japanese crew, right? What a flex. We were in the American broadcast team, and I had this director who barely spoke any English, and he kept telling me, don't say nice. No nice. You say nice too much. No nice. Because I kept going, nice. Nice.
Starting point is 01:51:57 Nice kick. And they hated nice. They told me not to say nice. A lot of guys get caught on a word, though. He ended up saying he didn't show up. Oh, dude, I suck. They were right. I suck. Cerrone says Cowboy didn't show up against Conor. He said Cowboy didn't show up. Yeah, but that's just because he got caught. I mean, the reality is he got caught. I mean, he could say that he didn't.
Starting point is 01:52:15 I mean, he's got to say something. He got stopped in the first round. He didn't fight the best fight. But it's because Conor fought. Don't disrespect the legend. Conor fought amazing. Also, don't disrespect the legend. Yeah, and Conor blitzkriegs people. Yeah, when it's Conor, Conor, amazing. Also, don't disrespect the legend.
Starting point is 01:52:26 Conor blitzkriegs people. Conor, Conor, you're in fucking trouble. What he did to Eddie Alvarez? Yes. Yeah, he blitzkriegs people. That's why I'm so interested to see how he does with Michael Chandler. What version of Conor are we getting? Because if it's Conor focused, which is great coming off the ultimate fighter, because he's forced to train.
Starting point is 01:52:40 You can't be on your yacht in your Gucci pajamas, whatever the fuck you're doing. You have to train with the team. You're the head coach. You have to train. Coming off. You're the head coach. You have to train. Coming off that. Michael Chandler's a scary guy.
Starting point is 01:52:49 He's so powerful. The way he knocked out Tony Ferguson with that front kick to the face. As a Conor Dick rider, and I do suck him off pretty hard, I would have liked the Tony Ferguson fight for him better. I think Chandler's a tough match. Tony Ferguson maybe before Gaethje. That's where you would really go, whoa. Do you think that Chandler is more of a challenge to Conor? Yes, right now. Here's why I don't think. No, right now, B.
Starting point is 01:53:13 Right, but I think that if you look at Conor and Dustin. I'm going to pee because I'm going to disagree with this. No, if you. 100%. If you look at Conor and Dustin and their boxing, they're pretty comparable, boxing-wise. Conor and Dustin? Yes. And I think that if you were to say Chandler and Conor, Conor is going to be, you probably
Starting point is 01:53:36 want to put your money on Conor. No doubt, man. If they stand and bang. Fuck yeah. Right? Am I wrong? If Conor and Chandler stand and bang, Chandler hits like a Mack truck. He does, but he does.
Starting point is 01:53:46 So explosive. But Dustin knew that as well, and I think Conor and Dustin are both comparable boxy fisticuffs, yes or no? Because when that fight was low kicks. Poirier hits harder. Poirier hits harder than Conor. Maybe. Well, I mean.
Starting point is 01:54:03 Especially at 55. Now, remember, this fight's going to be at 70, B. Oh, it's going to be at 70. That's a juicy Chandler at 70. Same size, aren't they, though, basically, right? But Chandler at 70, yeah. Explosive as fuck. Again, we don't know what version of Conor we're going to get.
Starting point is 01:54:17 You're talking about a long layoff, right? You're talking about it's at 70, so it's going to be a little slower. I'm going to put a gun to your head right now. Watch this. I don't bet against Conor, and Michael Chandler's my boy. I'm not picking. I get it. I'm Rogan right now.
Starting point is 01:54:27 I get it. I don't pick. But I know it's awkward. I don't pick. But I'm going to ask you a question. I'm pulling a Joe Rogan. I don't pick. Let me ask you one.
Starting point is 01:54:34 I'm professional. May I ask a question? Sure. Eight inches. First of all, if you're in New York, March 11th, I'm in Sony Hall. That doesn't matter. How dare you do that right now? That was a commercial break. Because I'm in Naples next weekend, Thursday, Friday Sony Hall. That doesn't matter. How dare you do that right now? That was a commercial break.
Starting point is 01:54:46 Because I'm in Naples next weekend, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Naples. Okay. Look at Arizona. Take it easy. I'm just saying. Okay, hold on. Here's my question. Where are these cameras pointed?
Starting point is 01:54:54 Go to the head. Here's my question. Just if they are standing and they're banging and they're punching each other, Chandler and Conor. At 170? Yes. You would have to say that overall you'd give the edge to Conor. As a better boxer.
Starting point is 01:55:09 His technique's better. But when it comes to pure power, knockout power, you probably go to Chandler. But you would say the same thing about him with Dustin Poirier. Chandler has crazy explosiveness, but Dustin was a better, at the end of the day, at that mid-distance, better striker. Same thing with Conor. That's all I'm saying. The only caveat is what version of Conor are we going to get?
Starting point is 01:55:29 True. Okay, true, but you're still... Because we don't know. But you agree that at that mid-distance, Conor's got the edge. Conor has the edge on the outside, yes. Oh, my God. He's got the edge with accuracy, the speed of his fucking... Timing.
Starting point is 01:55:43 I'm just saying Chandler has a power advantage at 170. But he did with Poirier, too. Depending on what version of Conor we get. Now, we know I love Conor. Yeah. Chandler's a hell of a wrestler, too. He doesn't use it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:55:56 Conor did better against Khabib than any other fighter. That was a different Conor. How long ago was that? Still training a lot. Right. Who knows what's going on with his leg? The reality of that leg is that having a broken leg like that, no one's ever come back and been the same fighter.
Starting point is 01:56:10 Also, you saw it at Take a Hike. Take a hike. Excuse me? Let my boy do whatever he wants to recover. Dude, Cocaine Bear. Greatest movie of all time. That's Ray Liotta? Who is that?
Starting point is 01:56:22 I think it was Ray Liotta. He passed away right after that. That was his last big movie. No, his last thing was Blackbird on Apple. Is he in? He was in that, yeah. They might have just shot it before. Blackbird's fantastic.
Starting point is 01:56:33 Cocaine Bear is the greatest. Finally, I'm going to go to the movies. All that woke shit that they put out. I'm not going to fucking. I do go see cartoons with my son. I wish I called my special cocaine. Let's not talk over each other, Brian. No, you should have called it cocaine talon.
Starting point is 01:56:51 That's what I would have done. I don't do cocaine, but I will for the special. Look at this. Here we go. Here we fucking go. Minus 120, minus 110. Wait a minute. Over three and a half ounces minus 120.
Starting point is 01:57:04 Is Alexander Volkanovsky a favorite then? No, no, no. Malkachev is a 380. It's a minus 380, which is major. I thought it said minus 120. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:57:13 Those different prop bets. That's if it goes to decision. Okay, so what are the odds? Those different prop bets. The odds are Malkachev's a minus 380. Okay. So you have to put
Starting point is 01:57:21 $380 to win 100. Yeah. Yeah. That's fair. Good fight. That's a major fucking... Good fight. I'm rooting for have to put $380 to win $100. Yeah. Yeah. That's fair. Good fight. That's a major fucking... Good fight. I'm rooting for Volkanovski.
Starting point is 01:57:29 It's a good fight. No, no, don't do that. I want to lose my money because I love Volkanovski. Wow. You're a piece of shit. That's crazy. Yes. I am.
Starting point is 01:57:36 I'm rooting against him. Why are you... Will you still be up? Why are you against me in every one of these bets? I'm not. I'm not against you at all. But you bet against it and then you're betting against your own money. Because I like Volkanovski.
Starting point is 01:57:49 I like him as a person. You're riding the fence. You're riding the fence. Yeah, I'm so worried about you. How much money do you have in the bank? I'm winning. I'm up. I won on the IER.
Starting point is 01:58:01 He's won tonight. You won the IER. You got 1,000. It seems like you don't want to re-bet that five, though. I can tell that. Wait, with what? The five you won on the IEAR. He's won tonight. You won the IEAR. You got 1,000. You don't want to re-bet that five, though. I can tell that. Wait, with what? The five you won with the Pajero out of Siam. No, I got Pajero again.
Starting point is 01:58:10 I'm sorry. I have to. Right, but I'm saying I don't think you're going to bet five. Yeah, you're going to bet five on it. Oh, I will, 100%. I feel like you haven't. Well, you need to do it now because you've been- You want to bet five on it?
Starting point is 01:58:19 I got Izzy. You don't want to take that bet again. Do you? See? See what I'm saying? You see what I'm saying? You're trying to knock me out of it. Do you want me to take your money?
Starting point is 01:58:25 You're going to make me do this? I love Izzy. I fucking love him. I know. You keep doing that. But I do love him. That's the only guy that has his number. You sure? Yeah. Oh, look at that. The world saw it. That's a lot of money we're throwing around.
Starting point is 01:58:41 I hate doing that because I love Izzy. This really escalated. The only guy who has Izzy's number. That's the only. I hate doing that because I love Izzy. This really escalated. The world saw it. The only guy who has Izzy's number. That's the only thing I'm saying. As great as Izzy is. Izzy had his number for a few rounds there. This is a big lead up to this fight.
Starting point is 01:58:54 Look, they're juicing up Volkanovski. They're juicing up Islam. They're showing you all the highlights. I mean, we've already bought it. I know. Where was this energy two weeks ago? It's interesting. You know what it is?
Starting point is 01:59:03 It's a time thing, right? Yes. Because we're still two hours in and it's the main event. Like this could be two hours and ten minutes for a pay-per-view. Yeah. It's crazy. So they kind of have to show you a lot of highlights and stuff. Because after it's over, you're definitely going to get that dude sitting at the desk
Starting point is 01:59:17 going, what a night. Yeah, what a night. Man, can we talk about Perth, Australia? Yeah. They basically do a mini podcast. Sometimes we do those. I never even know when they're happening. I enjoy them.
Starting point is 01:59:27 Yeah. Well, they're such a smooth-oiled machine. They just take a camera on us at any time and start talking to us. I mean, you, John, and DC can do that all day. It's crazy. It's so fun to do it with DC. He's the best. And John Anik is the greatest of all time.
Starting point is 01:59:43 Of all time. Of all time. The greatest play-by-play guy of all time. You know he has a twin brother with long hair? Yeah, I met him. It's freaky. Really? They look identical, but he has long hair.
Starting point is 01:59:52 Jesus, what's going on here? They look exactly the same. Big smile. Identical. You can't tell the difference. It's like you're tripping out. John's one of my favorite people. John grew long hair.
Starting point is 02:00:01 Like, what is happening here? Anik is a smart dude, man. He's the best. He's such a good guy, too. And when it comes to how good he is as a professional, no one even comes close. He's so well studied. There's his brother. No.
Starting point is 02:00:16 Isn't that crazy? How weird is that? Bro, they look exactly the same. When you're in front of them, they have the same build. I mean, it's wild. It's crazy. It's wild. What's he do? I don't know. You told me. I forgot. You told me, they have the same build. I mean, it's wild. It's crazy. It's wild. What's he do?
Starting point is 02:00:26 I don't know. You told me. I forgot. He told me, too. I told him. Like, your brother is the best play-by-play guy of all time. Yeah. If you want me to remember what you do, I've got to be told a couple of times.
Starting point is 02:00:39 Look at this. Makhachev, man, that wrestling. Makhachev, beast in people. And just so big for the weight class. There's guys that are as big as you can get. It's like 195 or something. Like Al Jermaine at 135. That's as big as you can get.
Starting point is 02:00:54 That's as big as you can get. How about him versus Cejudo? I love it. Love it. I love it. I love that fight. Very exciting. I thought they were going to do sugar shot.
Starting point is 02:01:01 Well, that still might happen. Who fucking knows? Well, it could happen in the future, but it's Cejudo and Aljamain's happening. Yeah, but Aljamain has a fucked up arm. Like, he had to get stem cells in his bicep to see if it could fix it and get ready for the April fight. Are you sure they're fighting in June? June. Maybe he'll make it by June.
Starting point is 02:01:19 He tore his bicep tendon. Fuck. So he went down to Columbia, the bio-accelerator, I believe, to get shot up with stem cells. And hopefully he has enough time to recover and fix it. But he was going to get surgery. And he decided to do stem cells as a last resort. What's your take on stem cells versus platelet-rich plasma, that other thing? Well, all those things are good.
Starting point is 02:01:40 They all help you. They all help you heal. But what stem cells can do with mesenchymal stem cells, which is what they get from a woman's umbilical cord. It's a woman that is – I'm talking completely out of school and I'm not a scientist. But it's a woman who's had a cesarean section who's 25 years of age or younger generally. That's where they get them from. And those mesenchymal stem cells from the umbilical cord, they can regrow all kinds of tissue. They're great for
Starting point is 02:02:05 soft tissue injuries. Why is it, why does it have to be from a cesarean? I don't get that. I mean, the umbilical cord comes out. It's a good question. I don't know. I wish I could tell you, but the point is that way they do it. I guess they harvest it very quickly. They know exactly what they're doing while they're doing it. And those stem cells, they're fantastic for soft tissue injuries. They're also really good for people that have had neurological conditions. It's helped them. And I know CPI down in Tijuana. CHPSA.
Starting point is 02:02:34 I'm surprised people are going all the way to Columbia when you've got it right here in Tijuana. And they fix both my shoulders. It's just as good. Do they have any? It's right here. You go to San Diego. You go to CHPSA. But do they have any like right here and say, you go to San Diego, you go to chips. It's,
Starting point is 02:02:46 but do they have any like, uh, is it too early or do they have any like, um, control tests that can point to it? Like any, like, do you know what I mean? Dr.
Starting point is 02:02:53 Neil Reardon has written many papers on it and you could, you could read him and he's got books on it. And Dr. Neil Reardon is probably the most knowledgeable and he's the most knowledgeable public figure when he talks about stem cells. And he's been on my podcast before with, he on with um mel gibson mel gibson was talking about fixed him and fixed his dad look i've had amazing results with stem cells you have to you did in your shoulder right they want to give you surgery what what did you what did you see
Starting point is 02:03:18 i had a full length rotator cuff tear in my shoulder it completely fixed it no way completely fixed it my labrum was tore on my left shoulder. Fixed it. What? Yeah. So you shoot it in the local spot and the cells know to go there? MRI. No. MRI. And then they take an ultrasound and they hit it from like four different angles. Yeah. And it cured
Starting point is 02:03:38 you Eddie. Both my shoulders. And it actually cured the tear. Dude, I feel no pain in my shoulder. My shoulder is 100%. They can do amazing things with stem cells. I wasn't able to before. Stem cells are pretty amazing. Like bench press would kill.
Starting point is 02:03:52 What does platelet-rich plasma do? Platelet-rich plasma, it accelerates your healing. It really helps. That's what Regenikine is. It's like a more advanced version of platelet-rich plasma, and that's what they used to go to Germany to get. Peyton Manning went over there. Kobe.
Starting point is 02:04:09 Kobe went over there. Dana White went over there. GSPs. Yeah, and then they started doing it in Santa Monica. That is a different mechanism. Are you going to get any of this? Yeah, I was thinking about it. Do you have an injury?
Starting point is 02:04:24 I have no injuries. So what are you talking about? Just for the future. I want to know whether it works. Are you going to get any of this? Yeah, I was thinking about it. Do you have an injury? I have no injuries. So what are you talking about? Just for the future. I want to know whether it works. Are you going to start rolling? Are you going to start doing athletics? I'm going to get back into boxing, you fucks. I miss wrestling, though, a little bit. Don't get hit in the head anymore, though, okay? I know, that was the problem. Remember, B, I was getting dizzy?
Starting point is 02:04:39 I had to talk to you? I was getting dizzy. I was forgetting shit. And Brandon goes, keep doing that shit at your age. Fucking der. Volkanovski, look at him. He's pumped, man. Let's go. I want him to win. He's good against him, Brian.
Starting point is 02:04:56 He doesn't look any different than he did at 45. Maybe a little less lean. What do you think? A little bit less lean. As long as he's speeding quick, no problem for him. It's not like he had a lot of time to gain weight. A little bit less lean. A little less lean, but as long as he does. No problem for him. No problem. It's his natural. But it's not like he had a lot of time to gain weight to really prepare physically, right?
Starting point is 02:05:14 Because this is a couple of months. Is it a few months? Yeah. I think about your Volkanovski. You're sitting in that cage right now, and Makachev's about to walk out for the pound-for-pound title of the best in the world. And you're fighting for the lightweight title against a monster. And also, if Alex wins, it changes your life forever. You're the double champ. You just beat Makachev.
Starting point is 02:05:33 You're in the conversation for everything. Well, he's already a legend. I mean, he's already going to go down as one of the greats. Oh, the pressure's on Makachev. You're 155. He's coming up. It's on Makachev to destroy him. Pressure's on both guys.
Starting point is 02:05:44 This is a crazy fight. Yeah, it's in the backyard. Yeah, I can see the pressure. I never really thought about that. With Islam, it's like he... You're supposed to move his ass. He knows. He's in a sport where he knows anything could happen.
Starting point is 02:05:55 One little, you know, shot to the chin could change everything. Martins, he's had it happen to him. Yeah, and that guy can crack. It's got to be in his head. And when a smaller guy's coming up, like, you're supposed to win. That's why he's had it happen to him. Yeah, and that guy can crack. It's got to be in his head. And when a smaller guy's coming up, you're supposed to win. That's why he's a minus 380 favorite. There's a lot of pressure on Mokachev. He's got that front kick, guys.
Starting point is 02:06:16 No Khabib in his corner for the first time either. Why? Khabib's retired. Khabib said, fuck this noise. Why did he say that? He wants to spend time with his family. He don't want to promote his fights anymore either? No.
Starting point is 02:06:26 He's sick of it. Sick of traveling. He has a wife. He has kids. He wants to be at home. Wow. He's got all the money. Trying to start a new MMA event.
Starting point is 02:06:32 Good luck with that. He also said he thinks MMA is good luck. It's tough. Really? I don't know if that's true. Interesting. I mean, I think. The numbers would side with him.
Starting point is 02:06:45 Well, the numbers change depending upon who's fighting. If Conor comes back, the numbers go skyrocketing. If Jon Jones wins and becomes the heavyweight champion, the numbers skyrocket. Yeah, it depends on who's fighting, man. You've got to get the public behind it. When the public is behind it, it's not just us, the psychos that are always watching this shit. I watch every fight night. It's the people that are going to watch
Starting point is 02:07:05 because it's a big event. Are you going to the fight? I know that because I get LA texts from the casuals. Like, hey, you're going to be at UFC? Who's Connor fighting? You know, like those guys. Let me ask this, Joe. You think Connor versus Chandler, when they fight, it does the same
Starting point is 02:07:22 numbers that he's always done? No, not anymore because Connor's lost a bunch of times. So I don't think it'll be quite the same, but I think it'll be very high. I think it'll be very interesting. And for the hardcore fans, it's a really interesting fight because Chandler's so fucking dangerous and he's so wild. Here's the thing about John. Or it could be bigger than ever. Could be.
Starting point is 02:07:40 He's finally back. And the Ultimate Fighter, if the Ultimate Fighter becomes successful, it's a successful season. You've got to always attach the eyeballs to the Ultimate Fighter, right? But there's a difference between, like, the problem with MMA is that so many things can go wrong. And so you can have one person. What the fuck are you saying? What kind of things are going to go wrong in MMA? Look how defensive he is.
Starting point is 02:08:05 His posture. You've been watching MMA for 40 years and I've never seen anything go wrong. Let me educate you. As a boxer, you can dominate for a long, long time. You can be a Roy Jones Jr. You can be a Sugar Ray. And you can dominate for a long time.
Starting point is 02:08:19 You fight less. You pick your opponents. Boxing is a thing. With MMA, man, you lose a step. You make one mistake. Like Conor, as great as you are, guys figure you out. Hey, B, what's this have to do with pay-per-view bets? What I'm saying is this.
Starting point is 02:08:33 Nobody stays on top. Conor didn't lose because he was at his peak and he fell off. He lost because he went and fought Floyd Mayweather. He took a whole year off. He made $100 million. He became a super baller. He was in his fucking skinny underwear on a yacht. Have you seen his yacht? I know that. Have you seen. He made $100 million. He became a super baller. He was in his fucking skinny underwear on a yacht. Have you seen his yacht?
Starting point is 02:08:47 I know that. Have you seen his yacht? $10 million. He has a Lamborghini boat. With MMA, it's harder to stay on top for that long. It's harder than any other sport. Jon Jones did it. And I think what happens when you do that is that it's hard to gain.
Starting point is 02:09:02 Your popularity will fall off as you lose. So if you can stay a champion for a long time, then, you know. Your popularity definitely falls off as you lose. Like Anderson Silva towards the end of his career, he's one of the GOATs. And, you know, people weren't that excited about seeing him fight. And if it was a pay-per-view and he was headlining it, it's not like something that's going to sell. But Anderson Silva in his fucking prime.
Starting point is 02:09:21 How old is Conor? How old is he? He's 35, I believe. 34? 34, 35. Look at that boat. It's a Lamborghini. That's a Huracan or a Ventador on the water.
Starting point is 02:09:34 Pretty dope. You think they break down on the water? They don't break down in real life, dude. In real life, they don't break down anymore. The Germans bought them. It's the scrap for the straps. Here we go. Theo Vaughn got on the paper. They better not go Here we go. Theo Vaughn got on the paper.
Starting point is 02:09:45 They better not go through his tweets. Theo Vaughn. The problem with broadcasting Theo Vaughn's tweets, people are like, Theo Vaughn? Oh, I love him. We go saying, what the fuck is he saying? That's what's great about it. You'll make sure he gets it.
Starting point is 02:09:59 I used to know this guy named Earl. Look at this, boys. Islam looks rather relaxed. It's going down. It's going down. It's going down. Holy shit. As far as competitive-wise, two guys in the prime, I can't remember the last time a fight was this big.
Starting point is 02:10:12 It's a big fight, man, because to be world champions and to be in the small percentage that you consider pound-for-pound best, and these two guys are right there. Number one, number two, both in the prime? And it's crazy that this is the first title defense, too. It's a big step for Islam. There's a lot of people for him to fight. And when they called it out after the fight,
Starting point is 02:10:33 in Australia for number one. Love it. Pound for pound number one. Love it. We're going to finish this guy. I can't believe Volkanovski has longer arms. That's what's blowing my mind right now. That's crazy.
Starting point is 02:10:44 Well, he's got some tank-ass legs, too, man. He used to be 220. Yes, he does. He used to play rugby at 220. I think he was 214. He corrected me. Yeah. Because I used to say 240.
Starting point is 02:10:53 Me and you started that rubber. Yeah. We both said 240. 500 pounds. And they came on my show. He was like, hey, guys. No, he came on my show. Food Truck was like, hey, bitch.
Starting point is 02:11:01 You and Rogan, you keep saying 240. He's like, I was in 240. I'm like, I don't know. Well, it's hard to understand them. They speak in a different language. You say 214. It sounds like 240. They speak Australian.
Starting point is 02:11:10 Yeah. It's like, it's not regular English. 240. What's your following, man? 214. 214. Do you know where Australian, that accent came from? It's drunken English.
Starting point is 02:11:20 That's right. That's what they say. They say it's like a version of English that was when a lot of people were drinking. Like they developed this accent. You've seen all of Australia right now. It's like, fuck Rogan. But back in the day. They started a language?
Starting point is 02:11:35 Jamie, pull that up. That's true science if I've ever heard it, dude. No, no, no. I'm pretty sure that's literally why they think. Joe Rogan the linguist. They think that that. Fucking linguist Joe Rogan Talk about stepping out of your
Starting point is 02:11:48 brain. I've read it, Brian. Look, it says it right there, you dumb fuck. That's good. Look at that. Cosmic retreating to early settlers. According to communication experts from the country. I remember a lot of shit, Brian.
Starting point is 02:12:02 That's good, buddy. I'm very impressed. That'd be a weird thing to pull out of your ass. That's not something I would say to disrespect Australians. I love Australia. I gotta win $2,000, guys. Calm down. Australia is filled with some fucking amazing people. That's a great place.
Starting point is 02:12:14 If they only had guns, I'd move there. I gotta win $2,000. Here we go. Here we go, boys. Here we go. Oh, my goodness. Look how big Islam looks. Holy shit.
Starting point is 02:12:23 Fuck, Jeff has a lot of sponsors Front Kick Mock Volkanovski's showing all those feints man Giving them looks Have to Yep Yeah Listen to that crowd
Starting point is 02:12:35 Gonna be very interesting To see what happens here on the feet Very interesting So that'll tell us a lot Yeah it really will It has to go well for Volkanovski The speed of Volkanovski The power and and size of Islam, whether or not Islam could stand with him. Look how much bigger Islam is.
Starting point is 02:12:51 So much bigger. This is very interesting, though. They're really feeling each other out. Five rounds is what you do. Yeah, with championship fight, right? Yep. There's that front kick. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:13:00 There's that front kick. He was right. Son of a bitch. I just won. God damn it. Don't fucking argue with me. Son of a bitch. Don't fucking argue with me. And he said, shot, damn it. Volkanovski closed the distance there
Starting point is 02:13:13 with some good shots. Good defense by Makachev, though. Good speed by Volkanovski, man. That's his key to the victory. That's a factor. That speed is something, man. And his leg kicks. Pay attention. Volk's leg kicks are filthy. But Makachev on the feet, like, he's got a minus P's and Q's with this guy.
Starting point is 02:13:28 It's so much faster than anybody's ever fought before. There's another front kick. That was a round kick. Yeah. All right. That first one was a round kick, but I don't want to ruin your shine. Black belt karate champion. Say Taekwondo.
Starting point is 02:13:40 Don't ever say karate. And pronounce it karate. I tell people I do karate. I say karate. And kung fu. I don't care what you call it. I train in kung fu and karate. I tell people I do karate. I say karate. And kung fu. I don't care what you call it. I train in kung fu and karate. God, Volk is quick.
Starting point is 02:13:49 I mean, you could go to... Oh, look at that left hand. He caught him with that left hand. Oh! Oh, he stabbed him with that left hand! And I was talking shit to him. Oh, my goodness. Dude, I told you Volk would step up.
Starting point is 02:14:01 Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. I guarantee you Mokchev shoots for a takedown soon. He's going to be like, oh fuck, this kid's quick. I'm going to get him down. Oh my god. Bro, he looks a little bit lost on the feet. He does not care.
Starting point is 02:14:14 Islam looks a little bit lost on the feet here. I think he's surprised by that speed. I know. I don't know what he thought he was going to sign up for. Oh my goodness. Dude. Volk has to stay off the cage. Not one takedown attempt. Not yet. Not yet. It's going to come. It's going to come for sure. And soon too. But
Starting point is 02:14:30 it better. It's going to come soon. It better because if this fight stays on the feet, it looks like Volkanovski's got a nice speed advantage. And that's what I need. Oh, look at a nice leg kick he landed afterwards. But it also looks like Islam looks a little tentative. But don't get it twisted. My prediction is vocal not seeing get up on rounds and then he has to be careful because Much doesn't be tough to put away and he all he needs to get a hold of his neck the thing about Volkanovski though that motherfucker has so much cardio at 45 cutting weight How much cardio is gonna have a 55 as long as he doesn't get smushed? Oh? Shit oh my goodness Oh, he got tagged He got tagged Oh, head kick Oh, shit I told you
Starting point is 02:15:05 Oh, my goodness Oh, no, no, no Here's the clinch Two minutes to go Easy takedown Sorry, guys Sorry, everybody He's gonna finish
Starting point is 02:15:13 I am sorry There's two minutes left Let's see But listen If Volkanovski can get free here This is big This is big, boys This is big
Starting point is 02:15:22 If Volkanovski can get free here We're gonna find out a lot I must hand fight like a motherfucker. Look, he's hand fighting. They're fighting, man. Here we go. Boy, that's a wild fucking exchange. Wild exchange.
Starting point is 02:15:32 Now, look, Islam caught him with a head kick, son. Yes. That's crazy. And a fucking hook. Look at this, though. Volkanovski fighting those hands. He's doing a great job. No, don't let him drive you down to the ground right now.
Starting point is 02:15:43 Do not let him drive you down. That's a big ask. This is good so far. Very interesting so far. It's his leverage. Great job. Yeah, being low. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 02:15:51 Oh, bro. Roll. Roll, baby. Almost back up. Almost back up. Oh. Be careful. Be careful.
Starting point is 02:15:58 That was filthy. Be careful getting up here. I love Volkanovski. I love him, bro. Be careful getting up here. He's on his back. Yeah. Be fucking careful.
Starting point is 02:16:04 Oh, it's a wrap. Oh, this is not good. He's got plenty of time. He has a minute. He's got on his back. Be fucking careful. Oh, it's a wrap. Oh, this is not good. He's got plenty of time. He has a minute. He's got plenty of time. Not fucking good. No, don't punch. I hate when guys fucking punch from back there.
Starting point is 02:16:11 This is not good. Damn. Not good at all. I'm sorry about this, guys. Damn. As he fights that arm, because he trapped that one arm. He trapped his right arm. Now he's going to get that left arm across the neck.
Starting point is 02:16:19 Oh, my goodness. This is a tough one. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Oh, no, no, no, Vol. Oh, my goodness. Two on one, Vol. 47 seconds. He just looked at the time. It looks like Khabib Conner right there, right? He just looked at the He's a tough one. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Oh, no, no, no, Vol. Oh, my goodness. Two on one, Vol. It looks like Khabib Conner right there, right?
Starting point is 02:16:27 He just looked at the time. Two on one. Two on one, buddy. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Look at his face. Oh, Jesus Christ. You ever see him against Ortega?
Starting point is 02:16:36 He's going to take a lot more than that. This is a much bigger guy than Ortega, unfortunately. Yeah, Brennan, I need you to calm down. 20 seconds. He's got to go now. And I'm sorry about this because I love him. Oh, you want to bet he gets out of this round? I'm not betting.
Starting point is 02:16:49 Hey, don't try to make money off me. This is nasty. He's face cranking him. That's a bad situation. It's not good, but he's not going to tap from that. Boy, this is terror level five here if you bet on Volkanovski. Nine seconds. Yeah, eight, seven.
Starting point is 02:17:04 He survived. Volkanovski's still a killer. He's still a killer. He's smiling. So the question is here. Do they both get confidence from this? Volkanovski gets confidence? Yes. No, no. Volkanovski gets confidence that he could survive, but Islam has confidence that he could
Starting point is 02:17:21 take him down and take his back. And connect on his face. Exactly. So he knows now he can take him down and take his back. So now he knows. And connect on his face. Exactly. So he knows now he can take him down and take his back. And Volk didn't get up. He just got to do it earlier so he has more time to finish. This is a problem if you've been on Volk and Abt. Very interesting. But Volk is a special, special
Starting point is 02:17:35 fighter. You're trying to make me feel better. Look at that straight left though. He rocked him with that straight left. Jesus. Boop. Boop. Yeah. Oh, he got caught behind the head. He's a four-on. Got caught behind the head. Beautiful.
Starting point is 02:17:49 Oh, look at that high kick. He blocked it. It's just bigger. It's going to hurt. Well, it's not just that. I mean, he landed those combinations. This move right here, look at this, how he stayed on top right there. You know how huge that is?
Starting point is 02:17:59 Fucking filthy. The transition there to the back, filthy. I mean, he went to his back and then still got up. Yes. Like, he went boom, landed on his back. Still wrapped it. Here we go. Volk is so game.
Starting point is 02:18:10 Look at how game he is. God, he's a champion. So you give that round a... Brian, do you have your pants on or no? No, I don't have my pants on. I'm not for this fight, dude. That's Islam's round. I have a boner that can cut a diamond right now.
Starting point is 02:18:21 That's Islam's round, correct? Yes, that's what I was going to say. You probably give that to Islam. Yeah, you can't... Of course you give that to Islam. Yeah, you can't. You can't win a fight around with someone on your back. You definitely give it to Islam. He also hurt him on the feet. Yes.
Starting point is 02:18:32 And that was what initiated the clinch. This is an exciting fucking fight. Boy, Volkanovski literally has to be flawless for the next four rounds. He's got to be very, very careful. And on the feet now, he knows he can get caught. Like, he can't blitz him. Can't blitz him. It was that weird forearm.
Starting point is 02:18:50 He's going to switch it up like that. But he did make it when he survived on the ground. That's big. That's big. Oh. No, but I'm sure he's thinking like, oh, shit. This guy took my back and almost choked me out. God damn.
Starting point is 02:19:02 Oh, yeah, 100%. That's going to affect his striking. But look at Volkanovski's confidence. He's smiling. He hasn't thrown that much, though. It's a killer. He's worried about getting his back taken again. Oh, good kick to the body. Oh, there he goes. Oh, shit. Man, he's winging. I'll tell you that. He's trying to win.
Starting point is 02:19:16 He's trying to really connect with a big haymaker moving forward. I mean, that speed is something, man. Oh, look at that. Oh, shit. He's got to get out of it. No, no, no, no. He's got to get out of there.
Starting point is 02:19:28 Oh, no. Oh, no. Okay. Three minutes, 47 seconds to go. He's got way more time. It's a wrestling match. He's got a minute and a half more time than last time. This is a big deal.
Starting point is 02:19:39 This is a big deal. Brian, Brian, just hear him go, it's a wrestling match. This is a big deal. He tries to old school switch on Michael J. He's back up. He's back up. Holy shit. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 02:19:49 It doesn't matter. Holy shit. He can get dragged back down. Yeah. These guys, this is what they do. They drag people down. They have eight different steps. But he's doing, he's trying to get him to not close his hands.
Starting point is 02:19:59 That's what you have to do against these guys. He's doing a fucking good job so far of preventing this takedown. You got to give him that. But look, he's trying to, he's getting that hook. A lot of guys do that to Khabib too, but it doesn't matter. He stays on him and he keeps putting the pressure and eventually drags him down. Turn in, turn in, stand up, turn in, stand up. Big moment.
Starting point is 02:20:15 Oh shit. Big moment. Big moment. Big moment. Big moment. Big moment. Thank you, Brian. Damn.
Starting point is 02:20:20 Big moment, dude. Damn. Oh no, that was huge. Might be Makhachev's biggest doubles. Oh no, over under. Now we got to worry about Islam's cardio. Yes, we do. dude. Oh, no. That was huge. Might be Makhachev's biggest fight doubles. Oh, no. Over under. Now we've got to worry about Islam's cardio. Yes, we do.
Starting point is 02:20:29 He's never been pushed. Yes, we do. And he's losing a lot of fucking weight to make this 55. And Volkanovski did it. Volkanovski's got the clinch, and he's pushing him up against the cage. Look at this. Volkanovski's threatening with a takedown. This is crazy.
Starting point is 02:20:41 If he wins this, I'm going to freak out. Islam might be huffing and puffing, kids. He might be huffing and puffing. You got to think about that. You got to think about that weight cut. That's a big factor. What? EBT cool? EBT?
Starting point is 02:20:54 That's like checks. Oh, yeah. Hell yeah. Wait, what's EBT? Hey, money is money, dog. Debit cards. Cash out. B, you want to back out now or no? I have a feeling Volkanovski's going to take this now.
Starting point is 02:21:06 You're right not to. Look at this, man. Volkanovski is... Volkanovski in confidence. This is not... Now, if you would ask me if I want to back out after that first round? Yeah, but I'm very nervous right now. Who fucking knows, man?
Starting point is 02:21:18 This is an amazing fight. We do not know. Oh, this fight is... Will you allow me to get out of the bet? I like how he's missing with that punch. Volkanovski misses with that punch, but then lands that low kick. Correct. That's a nice combination, how he throws that punch and the low kick behind it.
Starting point is 02:21:33 Oh. Volk is that X Factor? What were you going to say, Joe? I was going to say it looks like Islam is a little compromised. Like he's tired. Yeah. Like the way he, look at that. Oh, look at that.
Starting point is 02:21:42 The way he throws that left hand. Oh, he stung him. Oh, no. He stung him. Oh, no. Come on, Volk left hand. Oh, he stung him. He stung him. Oh, no. Come on, Vol. Whoa. Oh, shit. Too big.
Starting point is 02:21:51 He's so fucking big. But that was a nice combination. He's showing that's hard, too. Look at this. Good check hook. This is amazing. Oh, he's rocked a little. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:22:00 Aussie, Aussie, Aussie. Dude, he's... Oh, my God. He should be wrestling more. This is a fight, kids. Woo! That slugfest, I think. Vogue can't play with that slugfest.
Starting point is 02:22:10 Yeah, he's too big. Too big. He can't slug like that. No? Well, what else is he going to do? What else is he going to do? He's going to try to land with his stand outside. That's never going to work.
Starting point is 02:22:17 Oh, he just landed a right hand. Unbelievable. Oh, that low kick. He's hurting him with that low kick. Yes, he is. That left low kick is money. It's there, too, when he goes to the body. Yeah, he's so much heart, dude.
Starting point is 02:22:27 Fuck. So much heart, dude. Amazing. Amazing. If he's in Australia, you're going to have to kill him. Yeah. Yeah. And if he wins this, oh, my God, he's a legend.
Starting point is 02:22:35 He's a legend. He's a legend. He's a legend. If he wins this, he should probably throw his gloves down. I never want to lose $2,000 more. Fuck this. I did it. That clinch.
Starting point is 02:22:45 The clinch is tough for him to win that. Yeah, but it's amazing that he's able to fucking stop these takedowns. And it seems like we're looking at the second round here, and Islam is definitely tiring. Yes. Definitely. What's he look like in the fourth? Right. This is a big factor, right?
Starting point is 02:23:00 And then it's also- Right here, just look at this. Who would ever thought this position would take place? Never. Come on. Never. And you're like, oh, if they get to a ever thought this position would take place? Never. Come on. Never. And you're like, oh, if they get to a clinch, he's going on his back. And also, Volk is going to drain him.
Starting point is 02:23:11 If he's tired, Volk is going to drain him because Volk has a gas tank like nobody. But remember Khabib's game plan. He goes, yeah, we're going to get in the clinch and tire him out. I don't know, man. Who won that fucking round? I don't know. Would you give that to? I'd give that to Volkanovski.
Starting point is 02:23:25 In Australia? You might give that to Volkanovski. In Australia? You might give it to Volkanovski. 100%. So it's 1-1. Yes. Right now, we got an even fight, boys. Dude, it's... That's Australia.
Starting point is 02:23:32 The tide is turning. The tide is turning, man. But he did get caught. He got wobbled. The big shots, the big shots that really hurt in that fight, in that round, rather, Islam landed some big shots, man. Yes, he did. He wobbled.
Starting point is 02:23:45 But it looks like... look how tired he looks. Dude, think of the big fucking Australian nuts. Also, the pressure right now. Yes. The pressure, like, oh, my God, I'm going to lose to short guy. Yes. Yeah. Oh, my God, short guy.
Starting point is 02:23:55 Yeah, dude. Look at this. Nice. Oh! That was more of a stumble. So we have to think about his right leg. His right leg got fucking lit up multiple times in that fight. But this was fucking huge.
Starting point is 02:24:07 When he figured out a way to get back up. Look at that. Look at that left hand. Caught him in. Coming in. To drop him, at least. Yeah, well, he caught him. He did catch him nice.
Starting point is 02:24:15 Yeah. He caught him nice. But Volkanovski survived. And got back up. And controlled him. This is exciting. And he gave him the thumbs up. I don't like that.
Starting point is 02:24:22 Reed Harris looks stressed out. I don't like that. Why don't stressed out. I don't like that. Why don't you like that? Because I would think you would want to get after it. I mean, yeah, respect. That's all good. Saturday, February 18th? Isn't it today?
Starting point is 02:24:33 No. When's February? No, no, it's next week. Oh, shit. Next Saturday. Damn, I'm a retard. It was the 18th. Oh, that's why we're watching this?
Starting point is 02:24:43 I'm retarded. Well, you've been drinking. It's that thick whiskey. Tiger fat gets you. Look at this, boys. Round three. What a fucking fight. What a fight.
Starting point is 02:24:55 What a strategic. Oh, head kick. I'm telling you, man. I told you he was going to stand in back. That head kick from that southpaw position is big. So when he switches off to this, he throws the left hand, and he throws that left low kick behind it. I don't know why he's not diving for his legs or something,
Starting point is 02:25:12 but I guess that's easier said than done. Yeah, it's way easier said than done. Especially on a shorter guy, dude. Remember the height. You're right. And he's also very fast, man, very fleet. He's just a great athlete. He's so agile.
Starting point is 02:25:28 Ooh, this is exciting oh my god this fight's so intense when you see two guys that are like in their prime like this it's so rare that they're two champions in their prime tip of the spear talent that's right and for Volkanovski what a challenged think about his dominating 45 giant Australian balls. Dominating 45 giant balls. Giant. And believes he can win. Like a Chinese weather balloon.
Starting point is 02:25:52 Two weather balloons. Oh! Oh, shit. What is going on? They shot another one of those things down today. Eddie, what's going on with those balloons? Oh, he got him again with that left kick. That throws the punch and that lands that low kick. Oh, Islam just caught him with the right hook.
Starting point is 02:26:04 And he popped him with a jab. That combination that he does is so smart because it fucks up that right leg. That right leg is how he pushes off of. Oh! It's very close. Mark just kind of finding his timing, though. You know what? I hate to say it, but Callum was right.
Starting point is 02:26:20 I know. I know I was. He said he was going to stand with him. I've watched every one of his fights. Yeah, but he's not standing with him because he wants to. Dude, but he's standing with him. Oh, look at it. He's lighting him up.
Starting point is 02:26:28 He's lighting up that leg. He's standing with him because he tried to take him down and he popped up. And it takes a lot of energy to take him down. I think Volkanovski. I just think it's simple. Callan is right. You're right. That right leg is in trouble.
Starting point is 02:26:39 Islam's right leg is in trouble. See how he's moving on it? Yeah. It's very awkward. Very gingerly. Yeah, very awkward. He's having a real hard time pushing off of it. I don't like Volkanovski here. Get how he's moving on it? Yeah. It's very awkward. Very gingerly. Yeah, very awkward. He's having a real hard time pushing off of it. I don't like Volkanovski here.
Starting point is 02:26:48 Get out of there. Get out of there. Oh, he got tripped. He got tripped. Oh, yeah. Back up to his feet. Oh, no. He's not getting down double unders.
Starting point is 02:26:54 Can he stuff it? Oh, no, no, no, no. This is big. This is a big moment. Fight the head, Volk. This is a big fucking moment. This is a big fucking moment. Look at Volk smiling.
Starting point is 02:27:04 Nice. As he has his dagger standing on his hand. Sorry, hand fight. Almost back up again. Guys, I apologize. This is a big fucking moment This is a big fucking moment Look at Volk smiling As his dad gets standing on his hand Almost back up again Guys I apologize this is wrestling Almost back up again Look at this Look at him standing up Not yet B
Starting point is 02:27:13 Who would have thought He's not up yet But he's still in a lot of danger Oh he's up Look at this He's up Amazing Amazing
Starting point is 02:27:20 He's up Amazing He's not quite out of the woods yet Not out of the woods But for Islam This has got to be kind of demoralizing. Dude. Right? Look at this.
Starting point is 02:27:30 Are you kidding me? Kind of demoralizing. Who does that against Makhachev? Now, he's not, and he's not trying to get out. He's staying in the clinch. Wearing a mask. Correct. Crazy fight, boys.
Starting point is 02:27:38 Look at this. He's mind-fucking him. Oh! Oh! Oh! He tagged him with that right hand. And he's trying to get the takedown. He was trying to trip him.
Starting point is 02:27:45 He's superhuman, man. The cardio is going to kick in here in the fourth. Such a beast. Let me get out of my bed. Just kidding. Such a beast, Volkanovski. What a fucking animal he is. Unbelievable.
Starting point is 02:27:57 What a legend. I'm telling you, man. If this goes like this, he's going to win the fight in Australia. They're going to give it to him. Yeah, who fucking knows who's winning this fight? Right? It's a tough fight to score, man. Because we're a little biased because he's a
Starting point is 02:28:07 smaller guy, but you still gotta judge it like they're both 55. That is a thing you do about underdogs, right? Like, we're rooting for an underdog, but is he actually losing? He took him down, he took his back, he's catching him more. Like, is he actually losing? We're biased. No, he's not losing. We're just surprised.
Starting point is 02:28:23 But when you gotta judge damage, right? The first round, for sure, almost got him in a rear-naked choke We're biased. No, he's not losing. We're just surprised. But when you gotta judge damage, right? The first round, for sure, almost got him in a rear naked choke. But these other rounds, he's not doing anything when he gets him down. And if he gets him down, Volkanovski's getting back up, and Volkanovski's pushing the pace. He worked the clinch. Once he got free, he did get caught there, but not more.
Starting point is 02:28:40 It's very similar. Significant strikes are very similar here. But Joe, they don't score for getting up. It's 2-1 after this Joe they don't score for getting up It's 2-1 after this But they do score for getting up If a guy takes you down That does count for him But if you get up that does count for you as well
Starting point is 02:28:54 It doesn't count as much But it's still a factor Oh he takes him down Look at this Oh my goodness It's a biased audience We're all cheering for the underdog right now. Yeah, but it's not.
Starting point is 02:29:06 It's also, look at this. He's instigating the clinch. This is amazing. To see Volkanovski almost takes him down. Oh, he almost took him down. Volkanovski initiating the clinch. What a fucking animal. Dude, even if he loses in the next minute, I don't give a fuck.
Starting point is 02:29:20 He won the shit. What a savage. Brian, you owe me money regardless. I'll give you the money anyway. I'll give you the money anyway because this is insane. I never would have called this. Such a fucking savage. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 02:29:29 Oh, my God. What a fight. Two to one. He might have won that round. He did. Two to one. Do you think he won that? I'm not scoring it, but I would say two to one is very favorable.
Starting point is 02:29:39 He won that. Hey, remember in the lobby when you're like, he's going to melt, just burn through my butter? I'm saying two, Volk. What do you guys? I'm one. I didn't say burn through my butter. What do you think? Both of you guys said that. It's got to be that, right? Yes, what a fight. He's going to melt, just burn through my butter. I'm saying two, Volk, Islam won. I didn't say burn through my butter. What do you think? Both of you guys said that. It's got to be that, right?
Starting point is 02:29:49 Yes, Volk too. Yeah. I mean, maybe. I mean, we're having so much fun. We're in Australia too. You had a great system when you used to score the fights and come in between rounds in the UFC. Oh, I love that. You had a very great system.
Starting point is 02:30:00 Because Eddie had like, he did it like, he sat next to me. I saw him do it. He had a card. I counted all the strikes. Yeah, he counted everything and like, he sat next to me. I saw him do it. He had a card. I counted all the strikes. Yeah, he counted everything, and he just made notes as to what was significant. He was lighting up that leg, bro. Look at that. Yes, he was.
Starting point is 02:30:12 Hey, Joe, will you pour me some coffee? Yes, sir. Boom! So rip a little bit. I missed that elbow. Thank you, kind sir. Man, Makachev is finding greatness. Let's get some more coffee, Jamie.
Starting point is 02:30:26 No, actually, we don't need more coffee. We're in the fourth round. I know. Oh, man, it should. Look at this. Two more rounds. Two greats. Makachev has got to be thinking, holy shit, this guy almost took me down.
Starting point is 02:30:36 Now, who do you think has a cardio advantage in the fourth and fifth, Brian? I don't see Makachev huffing and puffing at all. You didn't ask that. Who do you think has the advantage? I think it's even. This is a great fight, boys. This is such a good fight. I'm thinking if Islam couldn't finish him fresh,
Starting point is 02:30:50 he's not going to do it. I don't know, Eddie. Makhachev's such a fucking savage. He has so many tools. Volkanovski has to fight so careful, man. He does, but also Makhachev probably is thinking he might be down here. He might be looking to get that takedown.
Starting point is 02:31:07 I think he also can't get that takedown right now. Ooh, look at that stumble. Look at that stumble. His leg's gingerly. That right leg is in trouble. Kick the leg. But Alex has to be careful kicking, too, for the takedown. Right.
Starting point is 02:31:21 Alex is in it. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, that leg's compromised. You're 100% correct. 100%. 100% stumbling on Yep God it's so open too That inside
Starting point is 02:31:31 And he's really good With that right leg Yeah he just doesn't Don't want to worry About the takedown See he's trying to like Attack her from the outside Yep
Starting point is 02:31:36 And obviously Islam does not want it He caught him in the nuts Accidentally They ready to go? Look at that They're crazy you don't think mock chefs and that's our show this is so exciting oh three shots he's caught him in the
Starting point is 02:31:53 face it might have been two who are you betting on i got it makachev he's winning this round right now but you seem like you're rooting for volkanovski well i am rooting for volkanovski because i love volkanovski But Because he's the underdog And he's fucking amazing But you bet Two grand I guess Right now Right now I think
Starting point is 02:32:09 Maka's winning this He's caught him a bunch of times Winning this round Oh look at that shot What a shot What a shot That's a motherfucking shot What a shot
Starting point is 02:32:20 What a What the timing Volk Focus Volk is talking I know focus buddy He's talking to his fucking Now. I know, focus, buddy. He's talking to his fucking ass. Now he has his fucking back. Oh, shit. He's talking. He's fucked up.
Starting point is 02:32:30 He's got focused. He's fucked up. It's three minutes. He's talking. He got a little cocky. Well, trying to get up, he got a little sloppy there. You can't get sloppy with this dude. And he can't turn into him now because of the body triangle. He wants to turn into him, but good luck doing that with that body triangle. And then if you try now because of the body triangle. He wants to turn into him, but good luck doing that with that body triangle.
Starting point is 02:32:46 And then if you try to fight off the body triangle, he's going to choke you. Correct. So you're in a lot of trouble here. And he's on the wrong side. Hand fight and you have three minutes. He's on the wrong side. Against the cage, too. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:32:56 He can't turn towards the side that'll help him get free. He's in a lot of trouble here. Yes. Most trouble he's been in yet. Yeah, because that body triangle on that left side is nasty. It's also compromising his breathing. And it's a problem where he's at right where the cage is. There's been in yet. Yeah, because that body triangle on that left side is nasty. It's also compromising his breathing. And it's a problem where he's at, right where the cage is. There's no way out.
Starting point is 02:33:10 Like, the way out is to the left. I don't like how Volk's smiling. Dude, focus. Well, he's just letting everybody know that he's a bad motherfucker. He is a bad motherfucker. And he is. He's made of different material. He is, but that fucking body triangle is such a game changer.
Starting point is 02:33:22 There it is. He's going for it. Oh, this is not good. Two on one, Volk. Now, Volk definitely lost this round, so now it's going to be even going to the fifth for the title of pound for pound number one. Well, we still got two minutes to go, boys. I know.
Starting point is 02:33:33 I'm too excited. Who the fuck knows what happens in this round? Volk isn't hearing a peep at him right now. He's talking to him. Volk is relaxed. He's fine. And he's got to think that Islam is getting tired here, but he doesn't have any method of breaking that body triangle, and you've got to do that.
Starting point is 02:33:45 You can't just sit up. You've got to figure out how to break that body triangle. See, I don't think this tires Makhchov out. It definitely does. He's been doing this since he was two. Yeah, but he's still in the middle of a fucking giant fight for the title when he drained himself down to 155 pounds. They're in the fourth round. There's a lot of shit going on here.
Starting point is 02:34:01 Yeah. But it does take a lot of energy to ride people's backs. Yeah. You can't ride people's back unless you have your cardio together he's got a fucked up right leg and he's using that fucked up right leg to squeeze down on volk's body so like how long can he do that what if volk gets out of that volk's talking shit to him he's talking shit to him god damn i mean kind of amazing that he hasn't been able to finish him right? Insane. Now he's trying what he's trying to do is he's trying to go up. He's trying to go up and see how he's doing Oh, he's trying to push his body through. Yeah, he's trying to push his body through Kind of amazing that not only is Makachev not really threatening. I mean, it's really not not close to finishing him but
Starting point is 02:34:47 Volkanovski is like talking shit And smiling He's acting like he's an inconvenience Get off me Look at this He's getting up high Yep Get off me dude He can't get that body triangle off though
Starting point is 02:34:57 Can't get it off He's still talking shit Can't get it off Can't get it off He's still talking shit Amazing What a badass Look at him talking to him
Starting point is 02:35:03 He's saying you're a bitch. What is he saying? God, I wish I knew what he was saying. He's trying to just force himself up. He's saying come on. He's saying come on. He's saying come on. Come on, bitch.
Starting point is 02:35:17 He's saying submit me. Submit me. This is amazing. This is amazing. Look at that. Come on, man. He's hitting him with some good fucking left hands. When was the last time you saw a guy have to defend when he's got a guy's back?
Starting point is 02:35:31 It's crazy. Because he's getting cracked with left hands. He's out of control. Hey, his thing, that's fucking Islam. But look at this. Now, but now Makachev's, he's free from the cage. He could turn towards the right. Oh my goodness. Is he scoring in that? Was he scoring with those punches? No, no, no, goodness. He's talking shit. Oh He's deaf it's definitely even going into this fifth round this round takes the champ oh Boy yeah, two two. Yeah. Yeah, I think it's pretty clear to to
Starting point is 02:36:05 Know no he's fucking around fight. He's fucking talking Yeah Yeah I think it's pretty clear Tutu Damn Aljamain says 10-8 Volk right there No No he's fucking around He's watching the fight What's he talking about He's fucking around He just does that like Cause he's gonna go up to 45 I think he's fucking around
Starting point is 02:36:13 Yeah Might be There's no That's a bad take That doesn't even make any sense No I What a shot huh
Starting point is 02:36:20 If this round Is not decisive For Mokachev That shot was nuts. How good is his motherfuckers takedown defense and submission defense? You've got to think, who's going to fuck with him at 45 with that? That's why you've got to have a real good transition from the back to spiderweb or from the back to try. You need other options.
Starting point is 02:36:40 Right there, he's really good at rear naked choke defense. Let's go to something else. Let's check his Camaro. Now, how tired is Mokachev? How tired is Mokachev after right in the back, like I said, it's the fifth round. He's cut weight. Volkanovski is so special. He looks so fresh.
Starting point is 02:36:55 Look at this. Look at this. God. Respect. God. Beautiful. Oh, my God. This is the sport of its best.
Starting point is 02:37:02 Fifth round. What was the odds of it making it to the fifth round? I bet you had a good bet there MMA at the... I bet there was probably some decent odds Do you win now? If it goes decision, I win Oh, good low kick
Starting point is 02:37:17 But good punch by Makachev Four minutes and thirty seconds Makachev, he could finish him Makachev keeps catching him with that Volkanovski did catch that leg again though That's a compromised leg and he did land a nice low kick in 30 seconds, Makachev, he could finish him. Makachev keeps catching him with that. Volkanovski did catch that leg again, though. That's a compromised leg and he did land a nice low kick. So we don't know how bad
Starting point is 02:37:32 it is now. And he hit him again. We don't know how bad that leg is. And no matter what happens in these next four minutes, the stock on Volkanovski does not go down. Not at all. Even if he gets finished. Yes.
Starting point is 02:37:46 Anything can happen now. But look at this man. If he can keep this fight on the outside and win this round, oh my god, this place is going to explode. We might feel the earth tremble from Perth. He wins this fight. It'd be great. If it's even close.
Starting point is 02:37:58 If people jump up and down, this fucking building might shake. If it's even close, he's going to win this fight. I promise you. If it's even close. Look at him. He just can't get taken down again. And that shot was so filthy. Oh!
Starting point is 02:38:08 Get out of the clinch! Islam caught him with some big knees there. Get out of the fucking clinch. Big knees. Big knees. Come on, Volt. Ooh, what a fight. What a fight.
Starting point is 02:38:21 And a lot of people have a different game plan now for Islam, right? In this 155 pound division. You go, oh, okay. She's some vulnerability now for the first time. For the first time. Oh no! This is a problem. Look at this though! What a scramble!
Starting point is 02:38:38 What a scramble! He's up! He's up! Yes! Un-fucking-believable. That's the most important moment of the fight. Un-fucking-believable. Most important moment of the fight. Now if he can break free, un-fucking-believable. How tired is Islam now?
Starting point is 02:38:50 And he doesn't have his hands connected and Volk speeds him up! Oh my God! In your face, Brian! Oh my goodness, that's huge. Oh my goodness, this is huge. Oh my goodness, that's fucking huge. Who's bleeding? Oh, look at that jab by Volkanovski.
Starting point is 02:39:06 Clean. Islam's bleeding his right eye. I feel like Volk's bleeding his left. I think they're both bleeding. Islam's still, if you're a straight scorer, he's bleeding his left. Oh no, oh no. Oh no, no, no, no. Hopefully he gets him in a leg lock.
Starting point is 02:39:21 This is not where Volk needs to be. Look at Volk though. Look at Volk neutralizing the shot Let's see you can get taken down. Let's see. He's gonna get that. I don't know. I don't know look look look This is fucking interesting. I don't think this much is fucking interesting. He's deep on that lady He is deep look he's up kids look at this. Oh, and he's out the back door, but he's not letting that leg Oh, he's not letting oh can he go out the back door. He's out the fucking back door. He's not letting... Oh, can he go to his back door? Dude, he's out.
Starting point is 02:39:47 Holy fucking shit. And now he's... Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What is going on here, man? Oh, my God. Oh, my God. What is going on here, ladies and gentlemen?
Starting point is 02:39:54 This is incredible. Yes. He's pushing the pace. Oh, my God. This is incredible. Pushing the pace. And look, Islam is fucking tired. Volk's trying to take him down.
Starting point is 02:40:02 Oh, get him down. If Volk takes him down, the world will explode. He just looked at the clock market. Just look to the clock of course Oh my god. I'm gonna lose no no no what is going on my god? What the Volkanov is trying to take him down? Fucking animal Volkanov's boat. Oh here comes some knees. Oh Oh, here comes some knees. Oh, my goodness. Oh, he tripped up! No, he's not!
Starting point is 02:40:25 Oh, my goodness. This is insane. This is so insane. Look at Mokachev. Look up at the time. Minute 23 to go. That's the fourth time he's looked at it. That's the fourth time he's looked at it.
Starting point is 02:40:34 Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Volkanovski is going to be the 55-pound champ. Oh, my God. He's winning this round. This is it, I think. Oh, I don't know. I don't know.
Starting point is 02:40:42 What are you talking about? He's winning this fucking round. Because he got all the takedowns Yes, those two Oh my god, he's on top what My god, oh my god. Look at his rip. Are you kidding me? Oh my god. Are you fucking kidding? Oh my god This is incredible. This is fucking incredible.
Starting point is 02:41:07 Brandon Schaub? Oh my god, Volkanovski is a fucking savage. I stand corrected. Volkanovski is the GOAT. No, no, no, you better get stuck. Let me back out. Look at this, 35 seconds to go. All he has to do is not get submitted and stay on top
Starting point is 02:41:24 and he's the motherfucking double champ. You're damn right. Holy shit. How you can't say he's the GOAT? He's the GOAT. He's the GOAT. He's the current GOAT. Fucking unreal. Look at this. I'm glad I lost. Beating him up. I'm glad I lost. He's got it. 15 seconds to go. He's got it.
Starting point is 02:41:40 He is the champion. He's the champion. Oh, look at this! Big shots! Oh my goodness! Hammer fist! Oh my god! He won. Volkanovski is the winner! Oh my god, look at this.
Starting point is 02:41:56 Woo! Volkanovski is the fucking double champ. 100%. What a fucking fight. What a fucking fight. What a fucking fight. What a fucking fight. What a fucking fight, man. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:42:12 What a fucking fight. Oh, my God. He beat him. He fucking beat him. He beat Islam in Australia. That is insane. And avoided his takedowns. And got on top. And was deep. And then rocked him down on top.
Starting point is 02:42:27 Look at Makachev. Imagine if these refs gave it to Makachev. He's so baffled. They won't give it to Makachev. I promise you they won't. No way. Makachev never saw that coming. It's impossible.
Starting point is 02:42:37 Underestimated him. Never thought that the end of the fight would be him on his fucking back. This was the fight. Look at this. This was the biggest moment in the fight. That changed everything. What a scramble. That scramble was everything.
Starting point is 02:42:49 It's so huge. Shout out to the Hickman wrestlers. Fuck. Look at this. Boom. Look at that left hand. Boom. I missed the one where he dropped him.
Starting point is 02:42:57 Right there. Right there. Oh my goodness. That's a knockdown. That's a knockdown. Legit knockdown. He's wobbled. He's wobbled.
Starting point is 02:43:03 And the fact he's beating him up here at the end of the fight. Oh my God. That's a legit knockdown. Legit knockdown. He's wobbled. He's wobbled. And the fact he's beaten him up here at the end of the fight. Oh my God. I lost $2,000 and I'm happy I did. Do you have any money on you or are you just like a wild gambler that doesn't care? Hey, hey, hey, don't worry about it. This is wild gambler. Look at these guys.
Starting point is 02:43:16 He's giving IOUs. Daddy's paying each other. We pay each other. You got to have transitions from the back to the arm bars and the Camuras and the truck. Wow. You need different options. Eddie, you're saying you need Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu? I can't believe he did it. Dude, he is just otherworldly.
Starting point is 02:43:31 Volkanov's got to freak. Assess that, okay, this guy's hard to finish off the back. He is a freak. That's a regular game. And he probably is walking around at 165 pounds. He's probably... I don't think I've ever been prouder of a fighter. I mean he's so much smaller. I've never been prouder
Starting point is 02:43:47 of a fighter in my life. Oh my god. Look at Makachev. He's so distraught. He realizes now. He just fucking lost. 100%. Dude that was a
Starting point is 02:43:55 hell of a fight. That was a hell of a fight. Let's hear this. They'll probably have to run it back huh? Eventually. Let's hear it.
Starting point is 02:44:05 48-47. 48-47. 48-47. Volkanovski. 49-47. New. Oh, wow. Oh, wow.
Starting point is 02:44:20 Oh, that's insane. What? That's insane. Oh, my God. Really? He got fucking robbed. I got to see my two grand. Oh, my God. Really? He got fucking robbed. I got to see my two grand. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 02:44:27 If it weren't for the decision, I wouldn't have had it. Holy shit. What the fuck? I still win my money. Oh, my God. But I still think Volk won that. Volk won that fight. We were just, we were convinced.
Starting point is 02:44:37 Were we too biased? We might have been biased. Were we, though? We might have to watch it. I don't know. I mean, I don't think so. I was very biased. Well, let's see what the online people think.
Starting point is 02:44:45 It was 3-2. Because in my eyes, I thought it was 3-2. 3-2. I thought it was 2-2 going in. That's crazy. Oh, my God. This sucks. Listen to the crowd. Show the champions some respect.
Starting point is 02:44:58 These fucking judges, man. They ruined history. One of those scorecards was crazy. Maybe it's tall poppy syndrome. Many things happened before the fight. He knows he lost. Bro, he lost that fight, I believe. Me too.
Starting point is 02:45:26 Eddie, you think You lost the fight I think it was Three to two Brian What's that Who do you think Won the fight I gotta give it to Volk
Starting point is 02:45:33 I just have to Maybe because Three to two Maybe it's hard We're watching it Obviously we're not Scoring it legitimately But it seems like
Starting point is 02:45:39 The audience agrees with this But they're in Australia Joe you don't think We're better judges Than those fucking morons that say K-Tribe? We're talking shit and we're drinking. I mean, it seemed to me, though, that he won three rounds.
Starting point is 02:45:51 We were pretty convinced. He caught Volk way more in the face. Way more. Did more damage. He did a lot more damage on Volk. He hit him a lot more. A lot more. Think about it. And he took him down. And he took him down. He's trying to justify it. And he took him down. And he took him down. He's trying to justify your bet. He took him down.
Starting point is 02:46:08 But he did. So here, 96 significant strikes to 141 for Volkanovski. You're wrong. Significant strikes, 57. Four takedowns though. It's huge. The four takedowns were big. Knockdowns. Yeah. Knockdowns. Significant strikes outstruck him. Yeah. Total strikes
Starting point is 02:46:23 outstruck him. Yeah, he did get one knockdown. He landed almost as many as he threw. I didn't see that total strikes. I think that's bullshit. A lot of those were from the ground, though, probably when he was. Yeah, that's true. Still counts.
Starting point is 02:46:34 Still counts. Then you've got to give it to Bulk. What does the online world think? I haven't got a lot of results. I've got to think the online world is going crazy right now. I've only got two people. I mean, it's hard. I don't want to be disrespectful.
Starting point is 02:46:46 I'm one of the biggest Islam jock writers ever. I was saying before that he was the guy that everybody was avoiding. I'm not. I've never been. Really? I'm just not convinced because he doesn't have the level of difficulty like the other guys. Well, this was a high level of difficulty. And he lost.
Starting point is 02:47:00 And I feel like he should have lost. Yes. But I don't. Now, I'm a fan, but I just thought Volkanovski got it done. Volkanovski 100% lost that last one. What did Volkanovski say? He's not even breathing hard. Very classy. 100% the hardest fight.
Starting point is 02:47:54 Well, Martins. What a classy motherfucker. Such a classy motherfucker. He's the best. Such a classy. Oh, man. It's so crazy when you watch our response. We were 100% convinced and knew. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:48:20 Right. There was no way, I thought, in Australia they're going to give it to us. But are we just, it's good to be honest. Maybe we're – are we biased? That's why I was saying we're biased because he's a small guy underdog, and those takedowns mean a lot. It controls the fight. Well, I just lost $1,000.
Starting point is 02:48:36 And he lost to least bias of all. What are legit MMA people saying? Like legit online analysts. I haven't seen any. Nothing? I do think we were biased. Luke Thomas didn't tweet? tweet a check Luke Thomas he's pretty non-buy yeah part of it might have been us kind of being so surprised he did that well right I don't know I was it but I bet doing well means you're winning yeah the takedowns are
Starting point is 02:49:03 huge for takedowns is a big deal. He didn't do anything. He grew from this. You know what I mean? Because he really didn't get hurt at all in this fight. Him and Yaya Rodriguez. Oh, my God. Correct.
Starting point is 02:49:16 Oh, my God. Yeah. I'd love to run that back. There's got to be a rematch. There's got to be. Okay. Volk easily takes the fifth. At worst, he wins two rounds. He might have done enough.
Starting point is 02:49:35 We're about to find out. That was before the result came in. He just had a official answer. Interesting. Interesting. The one judge, 49-46, that seems crazy. 49-46 seems off. That means he gave, I assume, the first, the second, and the fourth?
Starting point is 02:49:55 Well, it also means that one of them was a 10-8 round. How did they give it? Is that what it means? Is 49-46 the last round? It must be 1-4, right? No, that's the third judge. Okay, sorry. Very strange. Yeah, 49-46. last round? It must be 1-4, right? No, that's the third judge. Okay, sorry. Very strange.
Starting point is 02:50:07 Yeah, 49-46. You're right, Jamie. I would like to see how they did it. Like, what was the breakdown? I guess that'll come out. Doesn't matter. I'm interested to see whether or not people agree with this. What did Damon Martin say up there, Jamie?
Starting point is 02:50:20 The people are going to be hesitant to say robbery. You're going to have to go to fighters to get robbery. He had Islam 4847 on his card. He had it what? 4847 Islam. Go to Sean Strickland's. Who did? Sean Strickland will kick you the real deal.
Starting point is 02:50:37 Go to Sean Strickland or Sugar Sean O'Malley. Yeah, what do those guys think? Yeah, all the people should be coming in a second. Yeah, we're going to find out whether or not we're stupid. People agree with us, but I don't think so, man. Me neither. That last round was fucking big. That was so fun, though.
Starting point is 02:50:52 I love the way Pride scored their fights where the final round meant more. The end of the fight. Do you think that's a good? I feel like that makes sense. I like that. More realistic. Yes. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:51:05 Yes. But the idea is like Schoolyard. If you're on top and the – I feel like that makes sense. I like that. More realistic. Yes. Yeah. Yes. But the idea is like schoolyard. If you're on top and the teachers break it up, you win. That's right. Yeah. If you're beating the guy up at the very end of the fight, so you've been trying to figure each other out for five rounds. At the end, you're on top.
Starting point is 02:51:16 That's every other sport. That's a big factor. Yeah. It's a big factor. What's going on, Jamie? I'll leave that. He didn't have a tweet about this fight. I'll just say that.
Starting point is 02:51:24 What did he have a tweet about? Oh, okay. Yeah. He's a wild boy. That was a big win for him, man, over Imamiv. Huge. Short notice. He needed that.
Starting point is 02:51:38 He'd be in a fork in the road if he would have lost that one. Yeah, and the way he won. Just heart. He looked good. Crazy heart. What is this that they're showing us now? A bunch of highlights?
Starting point is 02:51:49 Fight Island. Oh. For Makhachev, so Volkanovski's stock, even though he lost via decision, goes way through the roof. Makhachev's goes down. Yeah. You saw him like, oh, someone can beat him. Yes. For sure. And the fact that he we can beat him. Yes. Yeah. Yes.
Starting point is 02:52:05 For sure. And the fact that he fought a 45-pounder. Maybe Dominic Cruz will be honest with us. I wonder what they're going to say. Yeah. Give us some volume. Who is the biggest challenge now from Makachev? I want to hear what Dominic and Bisping have to say.
Starting point is 02:52:15 And perhaps Dominic may be underestimated. Alexander Volkanovsky, when it comes to the wrestling and the grappling, would certainly be good enough to win tonight across all three judges' votes. Yeah. I mean, he said he was better in the grappling than I thought he would be, but I think like Volkanovsky said, we kind of both underestimated each other, but you've got to think nobody's really been able to see Mahachev fight for that many rounds on the feet, so you don't have a lot of reads on a stand-up. But we saw he's a very sharp southpaw.
Starting point is 02:52:41 He's got good counter-right hooks, good left hands, and he uses the team kicks well and his distance well. But when it comes down to it, Volkanovski's just as good at grappling. And so I think we're going to see this fight again. What do you think? I think we see it again. I mean, this is why this is the greatest sport. I mean, come on.
Starting point is 02:52:57 What an atmosphere. What an event. What an occasion. And what a fight. Listen, Volkanovski didn't get the job done, but he pushed it to the limit. That was by far the toughest test of Makhachev's career. I would like to watch it again and just score it. You know, I'm going to have to watch this one again. Because it might be one of those ones like Pewter Jan and Sean O'Malley.
Starting point is 02:53:24 I had to watch that again. Me too. I watched it again. I went, wait like Pewter Jan and Sean O'Malley. I had to watch that again. Me too. I watched it again. I went, wait a minute. Actually, Sean O'Malley landed a lot of shit. Sean O'Malley won that fight. Yeah, he won that fight. That made sense.
Starting point is 02:53:34 It's hard because at the end, when someone's on top at the end, you always automatically tend to favor. How's that guy going to win? You know what I mean? You favor. My only thing is nobody's agreed with us. But Makachev did land more chats.
Starting point is 02:53:48 Yeah, no one's saying shit. Everyone thinks it's, like, the right call. Nate Diaz agrees. But wait. Nate Diaz agrees. Standing up, Makachev landed more right hands and more lefts. Look at this. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 02:53:58 Islam got his ass whooped. Nate Diaz. I'm on Team Diaz all day. Yeah. He's right about that. 4,000 retweets. Right away. Right away.
Starting point is 02:54:07 Yeah. Interesting, man. Very interesting. What a fucking fight. Very interesting. God, the nuts on that Australian. Oh, he's an animal. He's an animal.
Starting point is 02:54:16 My God. He is such a fucking animal. And the way he survived on the ground is so goddamn impressive. It is. So impressive. Dominic was right. They both, or Volk said it best, they both underestimate each other,
Starting point is 02:54:28 one in stand-up, one in grappling. Yeah. What did I tell you guys? Look at that kick to the body. It's nice. He made, I'm telling you, he landed more significant strikes standing up, Makhachev did, and he took them down four times.
Starting point is 02:54:42 Well, the odds don't say that, B. But the odds, I'm looking at what I'm looking at. The copy strike, what doesn't matter. Right. The copy strike makes a difference. But if they're counting the strikes on the ground, that's a different thing. It's hard to say, right? But one knock, one down.
Starting point is 02:54:55 The only significant knockdown was from Volkanovsky in the fifth round. But he got wobbled. He did get wobbled. Again, my statement, only one got knocked down. True. True. In the fifth round. He had his back in the fourth. He lost the fourth.
Starting point is 02:55:11 He gets taken down in the fifth, but he reversed it. Got back up to his feet. Boom! Left hand. And the fact that the end of the round was him on top. He drops him with that right hand. This is the fifth round. This is the fifth round. Drop drops him with that right hand. That's the most significant thing in the fight. This is the fifth round.
Starting point is 02:55:26 Drops him with that punch. He won the fifth round. Look, gets on top of him, and he's beating the shit out of him from the top. No way he lost the fifth. So we know that. No way he lost the fifth. So we have to think about who won the other rounds. He won the second and third.
Starting point is 02:55:39 The third round, that's the key. I think the second is. What a fight. Because the third and fifth are clear. A bunch of media people there for you. A bunch of media people. I have a majority of Seth Mocker, Seth 49, 47. Really?
Starting point is 02:55:52 Damn, we were so off. Wow, we're so off. A couple even said 49, 46. Oh my God, we're so off. A couple guys said Volkanovski. Take out, we're not judges. I'm on judges. Maybe that's why Volkanovski was so cool about it.
Starting point is 02:56:04 Well, are we the only ones upset? It seems like we're the only ones upset. No, a couple guys scored for Volkanovski in the bottom. Who are those folks? The score. People we've never heard of. Dudes who watch basketball. Oh, dude two are all from Australia?
Starting point is 02:56:18 I think if we rewatched the fights, I think all of us would agree. We had confirmation bias. The smaller guy underdog. But yeah, he won that fight. But we were saying at the end, he got it. I. But we were saying at the end, he got it. I know. We were saying at the end, he got it. And even, you look at Izzy in the audience.
Starting point is 02:56:31 He was hugging people. Yes, he thought he got it. Totally. So, Brad, do you want to do cash app? Interesting. How do you want to handle this? Why don't you have cash on you when you make big bets? Because we always do cash app.
Starting point is 02:56:42 I wasn't ready for this one. I'm going to have to pay. No, we transfer. We have the same accountant so we just call it and go send him the cash. Like I'll text him as soon as we leave here.
Starting point is 02:56:50 Hey Brian owes me money. Nice. Yeah it's good. So now you're down. No I'm still up. Not according to what you said. No you owe me two grand.
Starting point is 02:56:59 Why? Because he was remember I took the dog. Overall I'm saying overall. No you're not. Do we bet on Yair? No I paid the dog. Overall, I'm saying, overall. No, you're not. We bet. Do we bet on Yair? No, I paid you money.
Starting point is 02:57:07 We bet on Yair a thousand. But earlier in the night, Brian, you said you guys were even. We bet $2,000 on that fight. So you owe me $1,000. So I, yeah. Earlier in the night, you said you were even. I thought it was $100. Up until now.
Starting point is 02:57:18 It's $100. Yeah, you did. I don't keep score. I try to pay attention. Earlier in the night, you said that you were even. Why do you want me to lose money, Brian? I'm not. I'm saying you're down $2,000. Make it right. I got to pay attention. Earlier in the night, you said that you were even. Why do you want me to lose money, bro? I'm not. I'm saying you're down $2,000.
Starting point is 02:57:26 I just want you to make it right. I got to make it right. You should really probably have money on you when you bet. This is probably a smart thing. Cash. Have some money. Crisp cash. Because people like money.
Starting point is 02:57:35 They like a handoff. That'd be nice. Handoffs are nice. Fresh cash. Fresh cash. You know what I do now? I have people donate to my charity. I think it's a real bummer that you can't gamble on the UFC.
Starting point is 02:57:46 I really do. Huh? I really think it's a bummer. You can't gamble on the UFC? No. Well, James Krause ruined it for us. So tip of the iceberg. Give me the breakdown.
Starting point is 02:57:55 I don't know enough about it. I got a buddy who's close to the situation. And me and Chael talked about it. He's like, dude, I'm here. It runs deep. Like throwing fights. Oh, no. Like legal. Oh, no. I don't know anything about this. They kicked the one guy out of throwing fights. Oh no like legal
Starting point is 02:58:06 They take the one guy out of the UFC. Oh, so there's more to the story. So it gets dicey He had to stop doing all his betting. He's making more money betting than on anything yet to stop all that Oh my god, so they can stop you from betting if they think you fixed a bet. Yes. Oh, yeah I don't know what's going on James Krause, he's a coach for a lot of fighters. Really well-respected coach. Really good coach. Phenomenal coach. Great fighter, too.
Starting point is 02:58:29 Apparently, there was a fight that was questionable where one of the fighters had a knee injury. And he went out there and all the money went on him to lose quickly, like real close to the fight. It went from like minus 200 to plus 700 so here it is the crazy line moment okay among sports books becomes apparent in the final hours leading up to the ufc fight night 214 bout between say that word nur dan becky nur nur nur dan becky and minner including odds for nur dun Dembeki winning by knockout. TKO drastically shifting from plus 300 to plus 155. That doesn't seem that drastic.
Starting point is 02:59:14 Caused by increased bets placed on Nur Dembeki to win by that method. Nur Dembeki goes on to defeat Minner by first round TKO via elbows in just 67 seconds. His win was assisted by Minner getting injured when he throws a kick. It was later revealed that Minner had an undisclosed knee injury heading into the fight. So he threw a kick with a knee that was damaged. Was Minner in on this? Yes, and UFC fired Minner. So it could be one of those things where like, my knee is fucked,
Starting point is 02:59:41 so I'm just going to throw a kick and fake an injury. Or not fake an injury, but, you know, I'm already injured, so I'm going to throw it and say that's how I got injured. Apparently Krause had some high-profile guys that bet a lot of money to give him inside info. So he runs deep. He's kind of fucked. And so this is more than one instant. That's what they're looking at. That's what I've heard.
Starting point is 02:59:59 I don't know. I can't confirm that. And I'm a James Krause fan. The problem with that kind of shit is that kind of shit can get you in real legal trouble. Prison time. Prison time. Because can't confirm that. And I'm a James Krause fan. The problem with that kind of shit is like that kind of shit can get you in like real legal prison time. Yeah. Prison time. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:00:08 Because you're stealing money. Yeah. Yeah. You know, you're meanwhile, insider trading is fine. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Nancy Pelosi's like, say what?
Starting point is 03:00:16 Listen, she earned that money. The rules are so crazy. Well, it's like her husband. There's a book by this guy named Bruce Schneider. Did you ever interview him? He wrote a book called The Hacker's Mind. He teaches computer science out of Harvard. No.
Starting point is 03:00:29 And so he was talking about hacking and what to expect with artificial intelligence and what happens when artificial intelligence starts hacking us. It's an interesting book. how like goldman sachs for example they i guess what controls the price of aluminum is the amount of time it takes to get from the supplier to the buyer or to the consumer so goldman sachs decided um well let's buy the 27 warehouses in detroit that hold all the aluminum. Okay, cool. Right. Now, let's just move the aluminum from one warehouse to another with our trucks all day. Because that's technically moving it. So it keeps jacking the price up. Keeps jacking the price up.
Starting point is 03:01:18 Now, that's a hack and they make a lot of money. That's one example of what Goldman Sachs does. That's wild. And so you go like this. You go, that's not. Aluminum price-fixing conspiracy was confirmed. Effort by Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan,
Starting point is 03:01:30 and Glencore. This is dishonest to me. I think these are assholes. And their warehouse companies to inflate the price of aluminum by creating artificial supply shortages at their warehouses between 2010 and 2013.
Starting point is 03:01:40 There you go. On July 20, 2013, New York Times published an article outlining the scheme which subsequently brought about the attention of the United States Justice Department. The New York Times went on to estimate that the actions that accused cost the American consumers almost $5 billion. So fuck Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan for that. First of all, New York Times is going after them, and this is on Google, and Wikipedia is going after them.
Starting point is 03:02:08 No, it's not just them. The earth is flat. They're just reporting. I don't know. No, no, no. Black helicopters. They're just reporting it because a lot of people saw this, and this is a fact. These guys are dirty.
Starting point is 03:02:16 When you do that, like that's how you make your money, and you cost consumers that much money. That to me is immoral. So what was the ruling on this? Was there a ruling on this or is that legal? Is that legal? This guy Schneider wrote about it. The actions of the accused
Starting point is 03:02:30 cost the American consumers almost $5 billion, but is it legal? They get away with it. It's like a hack. It's a gray area. It's a gray area. It's also unethical.
Starting point is 03:02:38 It's also bullshit to me. Oh, they agreed to a settlement. Oh, what a surprise. Okay. Agreed to a settlement. So there must have been something to it, maybe? Or maybe the settlement was like... 100% there was something to it. But you don't want to fuck with those guys
Starting point is 03:02:49 because they have their lawyers. They'll drag it out. I guess that's similar to what we're talking about in some ways, but it's just like weaselly shit that people do for money. It's weaselly shit. There are a lot of people that make money in very, in my opinion, very unethical ways. If you can live with yourself
Starting point is 03:03:05 that way, okay, good for you. But you suck. Interesting. Eddie, I wanted to ask Eddie this completely different. Wait, one more thing. Go ahead. Why are you pointing at me? The other thing I found was that, you know, that, that, that Uber has never turned a profit. What? Yeah. Isn't that fascinating? So why worth a trillion dollars. Right. So this is another thing in the book. So the reason Uber is so big is because venture capitalists keep putting money into Uber, right? So it keeps growing. So the stock keeps rising, right? Now, why are they doing that? The reason they don't make money is because of drivers and they have, you know, there's all kinds of benefits.
Starting point is 03:03:41 Insurance. They're waiting. Investors are waiting for cars to become autonomous where they don't need a driver. So Uber's going to have, like, computer-driven cars. That might take 10 years, but then you get all your money back. Who's going to fucking trust that? They posted a net loss of $9 billion. How about that?
Starting point is 03:03:58 Oh, my God. This is going on all the time. Look at this. In 2021, Uber posted a lower net loss of $496 million. Hey guys, good news. We only lost $496 million this year. Jesus Christ. Primarily thanks to the business divestitures of various assets throughout its history.
Starting point is 03:04:13 On an annual basis, Uber has never made a profit. How about that? Wow. That's so weird. I would imagine it's one of the most successful companies. Everybody's Ubering. And this is the problem with our business system and our marketplace, is because in a lot of ways it's fixed. Oh, they had one profitable year in 2018.
Starting point is 03:04:29 Yeah. Okay. But look at that. Go back to that. Over the next three years, it's lost $15.6 billion. Would you ever have thought of that? No. Oh, but it cut its losses to $400 million in 2021. Oh, good for them.
Starting point is 03:04:41 So the reason that the company keeps growing is venture capitalists keep putting money into it. And if you keep putting money into it, you can expand its value. And they're doing that because they believe in autonomous cars? Yes. Here's another thing. So why? In New York City, there are buildings, high-end buildings that they build, right?
Starting point is 03:05:00 Like where the apartments go for $ million 10 million 20 million 50 million dollars right they're 80 empty do you know why they're 80 empty and why there's so much real estate in this country with high end that's totally empty because people from china russia south america who are doing nefarious stuff they they'll buy an apartment they'll buy a flat in london for 140 million dollars you go what 140 million who would ever live there they don't live there they don't rent they'll buy an apartment. They'll buy a flat in London for $140 million. You go, what? $140 million? Who would ever live there? They don't live there.
Starting point is 03:05:27 They don't rent it either because then they can't call it as an asset. Now what you do is this. You take that $140 million flat and you borrow against it. You borrow against it. So now you take that money and you put it in the stock market
Starting point is 03:05:41 and that's how you wash your money, baby. Whoa. Yes. So now in the government... That's how you wash your money, baby. Whoa. Yes. So now in the government- That's how you wash your money. Yes. But it fucks everybody else up in the house. You are in the dark arts.
Starting point is 03:05:53 That's from this book. Jesus. From A Hacker's Mind. Wow. Yeah. That's crazy. What a dirty business. Brian Callen.
Starting point is 03:05:59 But isn't that just like always what's going to happen if you have little rules and little abilities to manipulate things? That's the thing. That's why all the congressmen are not calling for them to stop these trades. If you look at it across the board, it's not like all the Democrats. It's fucking
Starting point is 03:06:17 everybody. It is a red and blue flag. Stripe, stripe, stripe, stripe. They're making so much money. It's such a crazy, dirty business. It is. The fact that they can gamble on things in the stock market where they know that a law is going to be passed. Insane.
Starting point is 03:06:32 They're literally working on it, and then they buy a bunch of stock beforehand. It's outrageous. It's crazy. How is that allowed to happen? I don't understand how it's legal. And, you know, fucking, what's her name? Martha Stewart went to jail for insider stock trading she went to jail for having some
Starting point is 03:06:49 information about a stock you just described is illegal but you can get away with it if you you know there's no way to get away but still in Congress it's not illegal they're allowed to do that they're allowed to bet on the stock market even if they know the bills are gonna be passed for whatever reason they're not penalized for it. It's a loophole. But is it their fault if it's a loophole? Well, it's a loophole they created. Tight move.
Starting point is 03:07:11 It's a great move. Tight move. Why else would you want to be in Congress? Why else would you want to be there? I want in. Why else would you want to be there and get all that abuse? But you could walk away with hundreds of millions of dollars if you're making $100,000. That's what this guy's saying.
Starting point is 03:07:26 He goes, the system is rigged and the rich and powerful have figured out how to hack the marketplace. It's not capitalism. It's how to hack the marketplace and fuck people over. Rich get richer. A lot of people are that rich. A lot of times you go, I'm all for the marketplace. I'm a capitalist.
Starting point is 03:07:42 But I was naive because a lot of times the people that make the most money are the people that just know how to read the system. It's fascinating. It's fascinating when you see such a clever way of manipulating things. And you can make billions of dollars with the aluminum thing. I mean, how much did they pay out? I would like to know what the actual settlement was. I bet it wasn't nearly as much. That always happens with pharmaceutical companies.
Starting point is 03:08:04 Like when they'll make $12 billion in profit and they have to pay out $5 million in a penalty. The Sacklers should actually get the death penalty. Oh, my God. For real. Oh, my God. What those scientists did by trying to pretend that that stuff wasn't addictive. Oh, it's so evil. They should be in jail.
Starting point is 03:08:22 Knowing that you're going to destroy countless lives. Millions. So many people's lives got destroyed. And so many people believed, they believed in their heart that it wasn't addictive. Yeah. They believed that they needed to take it. Because they told them that. And then next thing you know, you're a goddamn zombie. Yeah. You could speak to this. It happened to you. Yeah. You didn't even know, right?
Starting point is 03:08:39 When you were on those pills, like you had no idea you were hooked. No. And I just got off Adderall. I got a problem. What's next? I got a problem. You know how many fucking people are on Adderall? We were looking at it the other day. It's like 40 plus million prescriptions in the country for Adderall.
Starting point is 03:08:58 I didn't have a prescription. I took 10 milligrams and I went, oh, this is, I'm on the plane texting like this, going, everything's amazing. I was like, this plane ride's fantastic. I know this is cocaine. How does it make you feel? Does it just make you feel like you're on top of the world? You ever done blow? No.
Starting point is 03:09:11 Well, it's better than blow. How about that? That's what Duncan says. It's like a math. And I did it. I did that. And I went, I'm not doing this anymore because this is cocaine, but better. So obviously.
Starting point is 03:09:20 I went the opposite. How much, what was the dose you were taking? Oh, he was, I don't know. You don't have to tell me. I seen you with five nicotine patches in your mouth. How many do you have in your mouth right now? Wait, Joe. Four right now.
Starting point is 03:09:32 Joe, I do too. Do you know how crazy that is? I can't even keep one of them in my mouth. But the strongest, he's extremist. I take a hit of a vape pen, I have to put it down for five minutes. Bro, I was taking these. You've got five of these fucking things in your mouth. Bro, I was taking three 30 milligram Adderalls a day for a vape pen and I have to put it down for five minutes. Bro, I was taking- You've got five of these fucking things in your mouth.
Starting point is 03:09:45 Bro, I was taking three 30 milligram Adderalls a day for- You take 10? You take 10, you're fucked. That's a lot. You take 10, you're fucked. That's a lot. I'm embarrassed. But didn't Dayport know I say take 30 when he was-
Starting point is 03:09:55 You think he would take a 20, you said? Maybe? Okay. I took three throughout the day. If I had to stand up, I'd take another. What would you do? How did you feel? Like a rock star.
Starting point is 03:10:06 Did you have a lot of false confidence? He also had 50 coffees. What's the comedown like? I mean, what is it like? Do you think you can make lights you can't make? I got this. Hey, I miss it. Yeah, I miss it.
Starting point is 03:10:21 Dude, everybody I know that takes it says don't take it because it's just like you feel so on top of the world. Did it make you horny? No, not at all. Really? The problem is- I heard it kills your dick. Yeah, but you don't eat.
Starting point is 03:10:31 You don't eat. And then also- I had a boner. I'd get off stage and I couldn't sleep. Brian, you get a boner when you hear birds chirp. Yeah. That's not your problem. You get all right.
Starting point is 03:10:40 Birds are sexy. I couldn't sleep. Birds are sexy, dude. I like a beak. Yeah. I couldn't sleep. My insomnia was nuts. Sounds a lot like a beak. Yeah. I couldn't sleep. My insomnia was nuts. Sounds a lot like crystal meth.
Starting point is 03:10:48 Yeah. It's real close. You don't eat. It's real close. It's at- Maximum dose a day. It's 30 milligrams a day. You were tripling that.
Starting point is 03:10:55 I'd do 90 to 120. Oh my God. I have problems. So how did you get off of it? Just stopped doing it. I was like, oh, you got a problem. I stopped. I went cold turkey and then-
Starting point is 03:11:04 How long has it been? About a day. It's been three hours. No. It's probably been over two months now. How long were you doing it for? Over a year. Oh my god. I could see it on his face. Why'd you start? Oh my god, over a year. I like to party.
Starting point is 03:11:20 Did you go to a doctor? Did you go to a doctor for psychiatric help? No, he doesn't go to a doctor? Child taking nights. Did you go to a doctor for psychiatric help? No, he doesn't go to the doctor. Dark web. Don't do that. Don't say it. Say that off air.
Starting point is 03:11:33 Why? Because that's highly illegal. I'm living my truth. I'm living my truth. It's highly illegal. I'm living my truth, Brian. I'm off of it now. Let me just tell you guys something while I'm feeling kind of sappy.
Starting point is 03:11:44 I fucking love these shows oh nothing better these are so much fun the old school OG crew when we get together man it's like how many good times have we had
Starting point is 03:11:52 we don't skip a beat we gotta do it more often we don't skip a beat yeah well I'm only doing 10 of these things a year and there's
Starting point is 03:11:58 there's always ones that I'm not doing there's so many good fights coming up too there's so many good ones in Abu Dhabi so many good England
Starting point is 03:12:03 that England Leon Edwards. When is that? Kamaru Usman. When is that? I don't know, but let's do it. Tell me. I won't do the road.
Starting point is 03:12:10 I won't do stand-up. Jamie, when is that one? I don't know. Maybe it was taking a little bit less, but this says that you can take it up to two to three times a day. Oh. Yeah, that's what I was doing. I think it's a slightly different dosage. Well, this is just a guy trying to get you hooked.
Starting point is 03:12:24 This is goodrx.com. Yeah, goodrx.com. They're like, this is the good shit. This is the good shit, yeah, that's what I was doing. I think it's a slightly different dosage. Well, this is just a guy trying to get you hooked. This is goodrx.com. Goodrx.com, they're like, this is the good shit. This is the good shit, yeah. Your body gets used to it, but I just can't believe it's good for you. No, your body adapts to it, but then the problem is the withdrawals. Like, my brain was so foggy and cloudy. So remember, I always struggle with English, but coming off that, the words were like fumbling out. Papa, I would hear you.
Starting point is 03:12:43 18th of March. I would hear you slurring. You were like, you're slurring. And I didn't want to be like, well, it's because I'm weaning off Ad I would hear you. 18th of March. I would hear you slurring. You were like, you're slurring. And I didn't want to be like, well, it's because I'm weaning off Adderall. Boys, 18th of March. That's my birthday. Oh. Damn.

Starting point is 03:13:38 Especially Kamala Usman Because I don't think England has a pay-per-view That would be like 3 in the morning though in the UK In the UK 7 hour difference It'd be in the morning here Oh would in the UK. In the UK. 7-hour difference. It'd be in the morning here. Oh, would it be? 11 a.m.

Starting point is 03:13:57 Listen, don't cancel comedy. Don't cancel money. But I love doing this. But we can be fine with that. Three of us. Three of us. We'll put a little Brian Callum doll you've done it before no you know who will put that fucking death whistle in your place oh that ruined like that we need a Brian Callen puppet right my whole life fell apart since Brian blew that whistle Brian Callen impersonation with the puppet like can you do
Starting point is 03:14:20 his voice I could try just do my head do the gay. I'd have to like, yeah, I'd just do the gay voice. Put my head. No, you know who could fill in? Joey Diaz. That was a lame gay voice. Oh my God. Joey Diaz. He would do it. I just talked to him.
Starting point is 03:14:32 Oh, yeah. Listen, cocksuckers. Oh my God. Then he'll replace me. He's so good. Well, it's like the NFL. Get hurt. You're busy.

Starting point is 03:14:56 We can. It's hard, but listen, it's fun. Just whenever we can. Exactly. Yeah. Don't put any pressure on us. But this 18th,
Starting point is 03:15:02 the three of us, we're in. I'm in. Sorry, bro. Fuck you guys. Have fun telling jokes. What do you want in your seat? What do you want to see, like a Raggedy Ann and Andy doll or something? Yeah, yeah't let's don't pretty pressure 18th the three of us. We're in I'm in sorry, bro You guys have fun telling you on in your seat. What do you want to see like a raggedy and an Andy doll or something? I'll get the doll. I know it's good. Oh, I was gonna get a blow I was gonna ask Eddie I've been at wait. I was gonna do at dinner. I want to wait for this. What's up with those Chinese balloons, bro Why are they there? Those are Mexican satellites. Oh, dude
Starting point is 03:15:23 Why they're on balloons. Why wouldn't they be Chinese? Eddie doesn't believe in satellites. Why are you saying that? They're not satellites. They're just on balloons. They always have been, and they still are. Satellites are on balloons. Look at the time, kids. 12.15. Didn't they just shoot more down? Yeah, the shot
Starting point is 03:15:39 went down in Canada, and there's like two that they've shot down recently. We can't have that shit. They don't know what they are. They're some sort of a surveillance device. It could be an unmanned drone. I talked to Dan Crenshaw.
Starting point is 03:15:51 We have TikTok, though. Dan Crenshaw's on the Intelligence Committee. He couldn't say much, but Dan Crenshaw said, the truth is probably a lot less sexy than people think. Right. People want it to be a UFO. Yeah. They want it to be aliens.
Starting point is 03:16:04 It's definitely not that. But I want it to be aliens. That's definitely not that. But I want it to be that. That'd be great. Alien war with dumb aliens. You think aliens are coming in a balloon? What if they're dumb aliens and they fight face first? They overestimate us. They think the Biden administration the CIA knew about it. Like NSA knew about it. And then when the guy
Starting point is 03:16:20 caught it on his long range lens. They said, oh shit we gotta do something. Then they were like, we have to do something about it. Did you hear that they said that there was Chinese spy balloons with Trump, but they didn't tell him? Yes. Mattis said that. You know how hilarious it is? Because they know he'd shoot that shit down.
Starting point is 03:16:32 Just imagine if you hold information from the fucking president because you're worried that he's going to say or do something. Savage. They did that all the time, apparently. Wow, that's so crazy. A lot of people said that. They were afraid. Is that even legal?
Starting point is 03:16:43 That compromises us as a nation. Is that even legal? That compromises us as a nation. Is that even legal? What are the laws in terms of what you're supposed to tell the president of the United States? I mean, he is the leader. If it's not a national security emergency, apparently. Does he need to know? He can't know everything. He should probably know that.
Starting point is 03:17:00 Chinese spy balloons are flying over the fucking country. You can't have it regardless. Not for one second do I think that's a Chinese spy balloon. If MSM is saying that, if CNN is like, oh, Chinese, it's something else. Fair point. Do you think they put it up there to make Biden look good? I don't know what it is. Maybe they put it up there so that they could say, oh, China's fucking with us, and then we could do things to China.
Starting point is 03:17:20 You think China's going to launch a fucking balloon across the Pacific Ocean? I don't think China might, but maybe Huawei does. Maybe Huawei's still mad that we pulled their phones. Like, fuck you. I will say this. If you want to see something fucking fascinating, there's a show on, I think it's Amazon,
Starting point is 03:17:38 you can get it. It's called The Bureau. And it's in French, right? But it's about how the French intelligence agency actually works. And I watched that fucking episode. Yes, but I'm telling you, I watched it and I went to watch how ingenious. No reading for Brent. I know.
Starting point is 03:17:54 I'm out. What's it on Hulu? I think it's on Amazon. But to watch how ingenious the intelligence agencies are. Like whatever you think you know, and then you watch that. Even if it's only half truth, you watch that, whoever wrote that knew a lot about
Starting point is 03:18:10 how they gather intelligence. Don't you think that's the case why, you know, that's one of the things that Putin said. Like when he talked about, like he's been through three different presidents. Like everybody has these big ideas until they get into office. Then once they get into office,
Starting point is 03:18:21 they all do the same thing. Exactly. They all do the same thing and they follow the orders. He said men in dark suits come and visit them the same thing. Exactly. They all do the same thing, and they follow the orders. He said, men in dark suits come and visit them. They're like mine. They're wearing a suit like mine. They come in, and they tell them how things are run.
Starting point is 03:18:31 And that's the reality of being an American president. Callen don't believe that, though. I think that- That's too conspiratorial. Well, no, I think that the NSA probably eavesdrops on Americans, and that's illegal. What are you saying, man? You think your phone is listening to you? Fuck is wrong with you.
Starting point is 03:18:49 Yeah, right? I do. And I think Snowden talked about that and I think that's true. I think there are a lot of laws that have been broken probably in the name of X, Y, and Z. No question about it.
Starting point is 03:19:00 Yeah. And I think that they probably can write some of it off to national security. But it gets a little sketchy when you find out that they're doing things to set people up like that governor Whitmer thing where they, they had 14 people that were trying to kidnap her and 12 of them were FBI informants. Oh, that's right. Was that the lady in Michigan? Yeah. And the two guys that were like, they were like, we didn't even really want to do this. They were dumb dudes. They were dumb dudes that they talked into it.
Starting point is 03:19:25 And they've done that before with people. That 19-year-old kid they talked into detonating a fake bomb. They radicalized him. He got a real vulnerable, dumb kid. Radicalized him. Gave him a bomb. Told him to plant it. Gave him a cell phone to call.
Starting point is 03:19:37 He was going to detonate the bomb. He did it, and then they arrested him. Jesus Christ. They gave him all the stuff. They told him to do it. Then he did it. And they're like, ah, we gotcha. We stopped this terrorist plot.
Starting point is 03:19:47 Are you guys keeping up with the Twitter files, the hearings? Oh, am I ever. Those hearings are insane. It's so crazy. Marjorie Taylor, Green, fucking throwing heat. It's so crazy. Not to put you on the spot. And Matt Gaetz.
Starting point is 03:19:58 You see the Matt Gaetz one? I didn't see that. Matt Gaetz crushes, dog. Did you see the CNN article about it? It was straight propaganda. I watched the article. They were dismissing the laptop story. The fact that they suppressed the information about the laptop.
Starting point is 03:20:14 That's insane. It's so crazy. I'll find it and I'll give it to Jamie so we can watch it. How far has CNN fallen off? Now everyone's like, Jesus Christ. Their ratings were the lowest in nine years, I think. If I were the kid, it gets better ratings. This is like, it's so much propaganda.
Starting point is 03:20:28 It's so crazy when you see what they actually said. Operation Mockingbird in full effect. They're just a bunch of bitches. Read James Bamford's book, Spy Fail. He talks about when the NSA got hacked. Did you read where Seth Rogen, Seth Rogen and that movie, The Interview?
Starting point is 03:20:48 The Interview, pissed off North Koreans so much that the minute they, when that guy, they don't know who did it, they still don't know, somebody, I think an internal employee of the NSA
Starting point is 03:20:59 put all their top secret hacking software on the web to buy, on the dark web and russia and north korea bought it and north korea created wanna cry which was this this uh virus that fucked up everything and exposed all of sony you need to see this because i just said this is jam because it's so crazy think of what we're talking about the Twitter hearings about the Twitter files when you read what actually happened now Look at CNN's article Republicans hold a hearing to prove Twitter's bias against them it backfired in spectacular fashion Look, this is how crazy this is that they wrote this Because they they're talking about these unfounded claims now scroll down so I could read it because this is where I read some of it.
Starting point is 03:21:45 Despite no real evidence to support this weighty and consequential claim, Republicans were unrelenting. It's peddling to American public. So this is what they're saying, that the only conclusion can be drawn from Wednesday's hearing on Capitol Hill where GOP lawmakers continue to push a factually unsupported narrative about the federal government secretly colluding with Twitter to censor the New York Post Hunter Biden laptop story. But it's true. Like, isn't it? Like, isn't there absolute evidence that they talked to them and said it was- Yes.
Starting point is 03:22:16 That it was- they said it to Facebook. Yeah. Because Zuckerberg said on the podcast- The FBI. That they told them a bunch of disinformation was coming their way. The FBI, who used to find bad guys. Now they're doing this. Look at how CNN is writing this.
Starting point is 03:22:28 Despite no real evidence to support this weighty and consequential. That's not true. To play devil's advocate. Isn't there a timing issue here? So couldn't you say that when the story was floating out there, there was a lot of reason to believe that this could have been propaganda? You know what I'm saying? Sure.
Starting point is 03:22:44 If you don't know, like, I don't know what they knew. We don't know. believe that this could have been propaganda. You know what I'm saying? Sure, if you don't know. Like, I don't know what they knew. That's what I'm saying. We don't know, right? It could have been. We could have thought that it was Russian disinformation. It could be both things are true. Right.
Starting point is 03:22:53 It could be they suppressed it and they really did think it was fake. Right. It could be that. But to say there's no evidence to support this weighting consequential claim is not accurate because once we... Look, you could give them the benefit of the doubt and say they thought it was fake. They thought it was Russian disinformation. But you can't say that they didn't try to suppress that story.
Starting point is 03:23:12 Correct. And you can't say that Twitter didn't suppress that story because they 100% did. They did. And Zuckerberg on this podcast talked about what Facebook did and that it was in response to the FBI contacting them. Yes. This is all so wild, man, because this seems like not the news. Like, the way they're writing it, this unsupported claim is nothing new for him. Well, we know CNN sucks ass.
Starting point is 03:23:35 What's scary is the FBI get involved with this stuff, with social media. Scroll down that. No, no, no. Go back up. I'm aware of no unlawful collusion with. Well, not unlawful. It's not unlawful or direction from any government agency or political campaign on how Twitter should have handled the Hunter Biden laptop situation. James Baker, Twitter's former deputy counsel, told the committee while under oath. Well, he might not have been aware. Right. He might not have been aware. That might be actually true. He might be telling the truth. See, I always think of it as the fog of the fog of war right situation right you have to think of that yeah yeah because i i
Starting point is 03:24:09 always i i don't think we give enough credit to the fact that sometimes people don't know sometimes people have half the information the timing is that these people in these positions are dealing with 15 different things so So I always look more at bureaucracy. Look at how they connected these two things. Look at this. His statements get to the heart of the matter by pushing the narrative that there was collusion, in quotes, which is weird. So they're like, collusion.
Starting point is 03:24:35 They're even, like, with a tone. Between big tech and the FBI to censor, in quotes, censor, the post-Hunter Biden story, Republicans are not so subtly feeding their election-denying base reason to believe that the 2020 election was effectively rigged against Donald Trump. The fact that they put those two together, that is such a wild thing. It's such a wild thing because we're talking about one very specific story. The fact that they're saying they're feeding their election-denying base.
Starting point is 03:25:04 No, they're telling a truth about a story that turned out to be real The question is was it censored but by putting collusion in sensor, but if it's true Then you're lying if it's true Then this article is not this is not an accurate article and it's so I mean, I guess it's an editorial is an editorial Yeah, I think, I guess it's an editorial. Is it an editorial? Yeah, I think so. Is it an opinion piece? I thought I'd scroll up to check. It doesn't say that. It might be.
Starting point is 03:25:27 Anytime someone accuses- Does it have an author? Yeah, Oliver Darcy. Yeah. When they start accusing anybody or anything of like calling them election deniers. If you read their Twitter files- It's already horse shit. Right, because they're trying-
Starting point is 03:25:40 You're calling someone an election denier? You're full of shit. That's it. But there are people who deny on both sides. But they're doing that as a pejorative, right? They're labeling them, this is a conspiracy theory. So people will dismiss it. Like vaccine hesitancy.
Starting point is 03:25:53 If they mention vaccine hesitancy, I don't want to hear anything you have to say. You're accusing someone of being vaccine hesitant. Dude, people are having heart attacks, motherfucker. Of course you're going to be hesitant. Jesus fucking Christ. But you should be hesitant of any new drugs that get released because 25% of them have When they call, like, anytime you read something or someone says, accuses someone of being
Starting point is 03:26:15 a climate denier, get the fuck out of here. I don't want to hear anything you have to say. You're calling someone a climate denier? Anytime you call anybody a denier. Right, you're talking about such a nuanced and complicated issue. Super a climate denier. Anytime you call anybody a denier. Right. You're talking about such a nuanced and complicated issue. Supernulty denier. If you don't know all of the details, you know, and when they're looking at graphs and charts that go over a thousand years and it's never stable. Right.
Starting point is 03:26:36 Never stable. The fucking climate is never like this. Are we having an effect? Yes. Yes. For sure. No one thinks we're not having an effect. What is that effect and how much of it?
Starting point is 03:26:46 And what if we weren't around? Would it still be changing? That's the question. That's true, too. My other thing is this. It changes. Do you think you can change it? Like Gavin Newsom and my issue with Gavin Newsom and people like that who think you
Starting point is 03:26:58 can legislate your way into a colder climate is ridiculous. But do you think that that's what they're really doing? Or do you think they're acting on behalf of businesses that would profit from these narratives? That's what I would think. Would you look at profit and money and its effect on politics? There are people who think that actually we do our
Starting point is 03:27:15 part by, for example, low flush toilets, etc., etc., and that is actually going to make a difference. I don't know the answer. Get the fucking water out of the ocean. When I piss in a urinal that says waterless, that's the last fucking thing that needs to be
Starting point is 03:27:32 waterless. I want a water fucking pool. They smell like shit. Where's the water? So true. Don't brag that it's waterless. We should all shit in holes. It's better for the environment. And find print waterless. Don't tell me it's waterless. I'm going to be happy about it. Toilets would smell if we just shit into a hole. We should all shit in holes. It's better for the environment. And fine print waterless. Don't tell me it's waterless.
Starting point is 03:27:47 Toilets would smell if we just shit into a hole like an hour house. Peter Zion, he was great about this because he was talking about how when you have an electric car, the idea that you think that somehow your carbon footprint is less. The moment we got in my car, Eddie was just talking about cobalt.
Starting point is 03:28:04 Cobalt. What is all the electric cobalt. Cobalt. Like, what is this? All the electric cobalt. How many Africans had to make your car? 50 pounds. Don't make me sad. Apparently, they're figuring out a way to make cobalt-free electric cars. Good luck.
Starting point is 03:28:15 But not cell phones. The cell phones still have, they all have cobalt in them. So what do you think happened? What do you think happened with, remember the first electric car in the early 2000s, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 03:28:24 And then they pulled them out. Remember the documentary? Yeah then they pulled them out remember the documentary. Yeah, they killed the electric car because I hear that those cars were exploding Yeah, the fiskars would blow up. They fucking grabbed them. The fiskars the lot of them blew up on a dock one day Yeah, Justin Bieber blew up. Is that why they pulled them? Well, I don't think they pulled them but they went and they did pull them They did something with fiskars, and they're back now. Fiskars are out. They're bad motherfuckers. They had a Fisker the other day at Eddie V's where we ate.
Starting point is 03:28:51 What's a Fisker? It's an electric car. Fisker's a type of electric car that blew up. That was what Justin Bieber had. He would have sent a chrome one. The one that got real narrow. Look at that. It's Justin Bieber's chrome.
Starting point is 03:28:59 That thing is dope as fuck. It was the dopest looking electric car for sure. By far. Still is. Untilest looking electric car for sure. By far. Still is. Until the Porsche Taycan came along. The Porsche Taycan's pretty fucking sick. Now Fisker makes SUV too. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:29:11 Eric Griffin just got it. It's dope. So Fisker still makes cars, but those ones that were on the dock, they fucking exploded when the water filled up. They were in a flood and they just boom. You ever see the explosions? No. Wild.
Starting point is 03:29:24 True or false? I've never? Wild. True or false. People filmed them. True or false. This might be bullshit, but will there be a point in time where the government can turn your car off? Yes. They can do that right now with some cars that have OnStar on them. If someone steals your Corvette, not good. If someone steals your Corvette and they're driving, the cops can shut the car off.
Starting point is 03:29:45 What if you say some controversial- That is true, right? I think they've done that to someone that was in a Cadillac. See if that's true. I can turn my car off. If someone stole your car, that would be an advantage. If someone's trying to steal your car, you could call the cops. It's a slippery slope, though.
Starting point is 03:30:02 It's very slippery. I can shut my car off. You have a Tesla, don't you? It's all electric, so it's very slippery you have a Tesla that way it's all electric so it's easy to show but if the government has access to your car isn't that crazy
Starting point is 03:30:10 GM adds remote kill switch to OnStar vehicles so yeah it's true so this is from 2022 so there is a remote kill switch now I don't know if it's actually been implemented
Starting point is 03:30:19 does the government have access though well if OnStar if the government calls them up and says hey motherfucker you know shut this guy's car off. This guy's been denying the election a little too much.
Starting point is 03:30:28 This guy is vaccine hesitant. Shut off his Cadillac. That's going to turn into YouTube. It's really interesting. I think that I am optimistic for the most part about technology. That's your problem. But let me give you an example. I'm just kidding. So if you're a convict, if you're a convict or you're a, so if you live in a poor neighborhood,
Starting point is 03:30:49 when you, so in poor neighborhoods, there are no banks. You ever notice that? So, so Western Union, you spend $500, send $500, they'll charge you $42. Okay. There are more payday cashing things and check cashing things than McDonald's or Starbucks. Okay. So when you are, when you've been incarcerated, you cannot
Starting point is 03:31:07 have a bank. They won't bank with you. Can't get a loan. So you gotta go to those they take fucking 13% of your check. I used to run a chain of check cashing stores. He used to have to carry around a gun. Here's an example. He almost got killed.
Starting point is 03:31:22 This is a company that I have no interest in. I have no money in, but I want to support. Yeah. No. I love Toehold, but I, yes. But this company is called Fresh, F-R-S-H. It's an app. What?
Starting point is 03:31:35 You can be a convict. Now, this is technology. You get a fucking debit card in the mail. You don't even need a government ID. You need a social security number. Okay. And they'll send you a fucking card now as a convict You can you with this with this credit card every time you swipe they make their money 20 cents or whatever it is
Starting point is 03:31:52 But you it costs you nothing but you build your credit and you can actually for the first time have a fucking credit card That's good. But when AI takes your job and does stand up for you, you're fucked Well, that's that scares me chat gp chat gpt is writing great jokes what's that chat gpt they you guys hear about dan you guys hear about dan who's dan it has something to do with ai there's like uh it seems like ai is programmed to be woke right yes have you seen like hates white people chat Chat GPT. Chat GPT. Dan is like an acronym for something, but it's like the opposite. I don't know exactly what it is, but I'm reading some Dan AI stuff, and it's hilarious. Do you know what it is?
Starting point is 03:32:35 Yeah. Explain it, Jamie. It stands for do anything now. And explain how it works. The way Chat GPT works is you have to create a prompt to make it do something. This breaks the prompt system that they have built in, kind of, and it can make it do things it's not technically supposed to do. Dude, we are five years away from there being robots walking around us.
Starting point is 03:32:57 We can't know whether it's a person or a robot. You think it's five years away? I think you're going to go over to your friend's house, and he's going have this Bombshell And she's gonna be vacuuming yeah, and you go hey is she real Yeah hands. Just a fucking fat guy with little hands. Why is he like that? Little tiny hands.
Starting point is 03:33:26 And he's got his fucking 10 sweeping his house. You don't have to be a fat guy with small hands. That's the future. If you become so wealthy that you can buy a sex robot that is as hot as any living human behaves in a way that you want.
Starting point is 03:33:42 So you get rejected your whole fucking life. You're just like in cell, ready to drive your car into a crowd and then all of a sudden hate's gonna go like this you got a girlfriend they already have that fucking that guy wanted to start this company for pedophiles where he's gonna create small dolls children but he said this is better than them fucking doing it to a real child. So how do you deal with that? It's fucking like, I don't want to be in that business. I'm not investing.
Starting point is 03:34:10 But goddamn, everybody's like. Yeah. You don't want to find out how many they sell. You don't. For real. But you know how many because child pornography is fucking bigger than anybody. That makes me fucking sick. You know what's sick?
Starting point is 03:34:23 When they find it on cops. They find a cop and he's got a bunch of it on his hard drive. You're like, what the fuck? Jesus Christ. When you have kids, it's like, kill those people. But they have a sickness. Okay, but how about this? It's the craziest sickness. You gotta kill them. Imagine that being your sickness. What a fucking hell. Well, you should contemplate
Starting point is 03:34:39 killing yourself. Yes. That would be the noble thing. You would have to do something radical. Or voluntary castration. What would be the noble thing. You would have to do something radical to flush that system. Well, or voluntary castration. What would you do? Oh, God. It's an interesting thing. I mean, I guess you would never, ever, ever act on it.
Starting point is 03:34:53 But could you imagine? It's impossible, though. It's like guys that are in the closet. Like, guys that are in the closet that, like, they stay in the closet their whole life and they never act on it. Nightmare. There's guys that go to their grave gay, and they had had a wife and kids and they just never acted on being gay. Gay to the grave.
Starting point is 03:35:08 They're in hell. That's what the priesthood was about. I hate to say it, but back in the day, when it was that taboo, you went to God, you went that path. Well, you know, once they outlawed pussy for priests, that's when it all changed. Because there was a time where priests can bang chicks.
Starting point is 03:35:27 They were rock stars. But they were fucking way too much. They had to outlaw the pussy. What year is this, Eddie? They had to outlaw. They go, can you imagine for a few years? Because they were fucking them too much. No. But you know, that was so, you would get indulgences.
Starting point is 03:35:40 This is the state propaganda version of what you did. You know what happened? No, you'd get indulgences. So what would happen was you would say, I want to go to heaven. And the priest would say, you could pay for the priest to give you, essentially, bestow blessings upon you. Yeah, that's the game. So you get into heaven. Tight hustle.
Starting point is 03:35:58 You wanted to get into heaven? You got to suck at that. And Martin Luther rebelled against this because they would also say, yes, somebody's dead. Do you know they're in heaven? Because you can actually pay to make sure they get in heaven. I suck in this way. But that's not why they stopped. No, I'm saying then guys were like.
Starting point is 03:36:10 No, no, you're explaining the game. Then priests were like. We're not denying the game. You're getting in details. This is what really happened. You're explaining the hustle. I'm saying. Oh, so you're saying the hustle and then they were fucking.
Starting point is 03:36:18 Then the priests started going. I'm sure they had all kind of game. You don't have any money. You know what I mean? I bet they had all. They were fucking. First of all. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 03:36:24 They were rock stars. They were the ones first of all, they were rock stars. They were the ones who knew God. Yeah. So you get your dick sucked. Can you imagine how bad it had to be for them to start like, damn, like, there must have been years where there was rumblings of, dude, you know they're going to outlaw pussy. There must have been. Yes.
Starting point is 03:36:38 And there's like, priests were like, no, there must have been fighting for two years. It probably took 20 years to make it happen. And then when it happened, 90% of the priests quit. They became hippies. Paul the Apostle. That's a bit, Eddie. Paul the Apostle, when he was establishing the churches, the Christian churches, the problem was he'd go, here are the rules.
Starting point is 03:36:53 He'd leave. And all of a sudden, he'd come back. Everybody's fucking. It would be this sex cult. And he'd be like, guys, what are you doing? He goes, what? He goes, you can't. It would always break into that because the high priest would be there and be like, you
Starting point is 03:37:05 know, start out with, we've got to be holy. Then the women would be really pious and people would start fucking without supervision. And he'd come in and go, you can't fucking do this. And he'd have to fucking separate people. Eventually they fucking banned it worldwide, dog. It had to be so bad. So now there's a short as a priest. So now they're the only dude who would take a job that outlawed pussy is a gay man.
Starting point is 03:37:29 That's it. He's like, dude, I don't give a fuck about pussy. You know, they're probably trying to fight the gay, right? They're probably all religious coming up and going, oh my God, Satan's in my head because they're reading the Bible. So then they go, you know what? They're ultra God. They go, you know, fuck that.
Starting point is 03:37:41 I'm going to fight that. I'm going to dedicate my life to God. I'm going to fight this. I'm going to fight. So they become a priest. They're all into it. They go, you know, fuck that. I'm going to fight that. I'm going to dedicate my life to God. I'm going to fight this. I'm going to fight. So they become a priest. They're all into it. They don't care about the pussy. They're like, I'm going to show God that I can get the devil out of me.
Starting point is 03:37:52 And then little by little, they break down and boom. Until you get another guy in there who's the same way. And he's going, me, dude, I don't like dudes. God is bad. I'll show you I hate it. Fuck. I'll spit on it. Let me spit on your dick.
Starting point is 03:38:06 Let's fuck. Be gay out of each other. Dude. I hate your dick so much, I want it right I hate it. I'll spit on it. Let me spit on your dick. Let's fuck the gay out of each other. I hate your dick so much I want it right up my ass. What a horrible life. What a tough gay. Unless you live in the Vatican. So sad, man. Martin Luther singled out masturbation as one of the gravest offenses likely to be committed by those who are celibate. Wow. Interesting.
Starting point is 03:38:25 Nature never lets up. Protestants early on took an exception to celibacy, arguing that it promoted masturbation, homosexuality, and illicit fornication. Interesting. He said nature never lets up. We are all driven by the secret sin. Today, to say it crudely but honestly, if it doesn't go into a woman, it goes into your shirt.
Starting point is 03:38:44 Oh, that's hilarious. They were jerking off in their shirts. Where did we go? 17th century, right there. They were jerking off in their shirts. Oh, my God. Nothing changes. Blood, pus.
Starting point is 03:38:55 Nobody knew what fucking STDs were. They all had them. Come on, get a napkin or something. Shit. Let's end this, boys. This was a lot of fucking fun. I love you guys, man. I love you guys to death.
