Yes?
We have a new system, ladies and gentlemen.
I'm trying to figure out if this is live.
Yes?
Yes?
Yes.
And we're live.
Brendan Shaw Benji Bra
And Fight Companion
If you've never listened to a Fight Companion
We're probably not going to talk too much about the fights
I mean we usually do
For sure Felder and Hooker
We're going to talk about that fight
But there's a lot of fights going on before that
We might just talk shit
You never know
You never know
You never know
So you were just so uh you were
just saying that you were in vancouver they were giving you a hard time staying at the trump tower
how is it it's nice right yeah i stayed at the trump in uh chicago once it's really beautiful
it's really nice you know my brother's my tour manager and he booked it and even i saw you dude
out of all the hotels vancouver great hotels, why did Trump Hotel?
He goes,
dude, we got you the suite for like 200 bucks.
He's like,
that's why I picked that hotel.
I was like,
well, no one's going to know.
But then at JFL,
they pick you up in like a van
with all the other comics
and they have the walkie-talkie
and he's like,
yeah, I got to drop.
I was like,
yeah, they're not going to know
because they dropped him off at me.
And he's like,
yeah, no,
I got to drop Shaw off at Trump
and then I'll drop the rest of the guys off at the sun hotel and they're like trump and i was like
yeah i don't know it's a nice if hillary if the clintons had a hotel would you mind staying there
yeah i don't care but bill you don't care about that i don't care about any of that
the hotel's a hotel if it's a good deal if there's a clinton hotel there's a camera that's staring at
your asshole and you're shitting that's too. It probably comes out when it senses your butthole is over the toilet.
A camera just comes out.
Each room comes with its own red scarf.
Dude, I'm telling you, though.
What's a red scarf?
That's what people get hung with.
Oh, like Epstein?
They say.
They strike.
Tell me about a red scarf.
I don't know what it is.
You tell me what though.
I got to ask Hillary about it.
That hotel's legit, man.
Yeah.
Like Bill Burr has the best joke where he goes, he walked inside a Trump hotel, goes,
well, this is what he should be doing.
Like this is, these hotels are great.
Like this is what he should be doing.
He should be making hotels.
Yeah, like this is it, man.
I stayed at the Trump hotel in New York before he became president, before all the controversy.
And it was so calm.
Like it was great. It was just so calm. Like, it was great.
It was just a hotel.
Like, you could stay back then.
Now it's like a political statement.
Yeah, now it's a little weird.
But in Vancouver, they really don't care.
But the thing is, it was like I am legend.
I was the only person in the hotel just doing whatever I want.
It's fantastic.
Do you think that the hotel attendance is like way down because trump is
president oh god yes the restaurant no one's in the five-star restaurants no one's there man
how i want that's like the shining i wonder how they how they operate like that it's strange right
you think he just has so much money just keeps it running he doesn't give a fuck after the election
it'll all calm down yeah it's crazy It's crazy. Great hotel though, man.
Phenomenal hotel.
Great president too.
Edgy bra, Trump supporter.
How do you say this
guy's name?
I forget how to say his name.
I ain't the one to figure it out. Russian bad
motherfucker. Is he Polish?
Dude, did you see Bellator last night?
Ed Ruth fought this
russian i think he's russian who's he's 23 and oh and i was like oh he's probably like that padded
russian record maybe this dude's takedown defense was fucking filthy because ruth three-time
national champion at penn state one of the best wrestlers of all time in collegiate wrestling
he's like you know the protege and he's the guy who's going to do it all for Bellator.
He tried to take single leg.
Dude, this dude was sprawling.
Took him down.
I was so impressed, man.
Did he win?
Oh, shit.
Won by decision.
Really?
Close decision, but the dude is gangster, man.
And that's Ed Ruth's first loss then, right?
Yeah, he's 8-1 now.
Wow.
He's such a stud.
Yeah, I watched a little bit of it, but there was too much shit going on in my house, so I had to shut it off.
I know, because that one you've got to pay attention to.
Yeah, I watched Bolanos lose, and then there's just too much going on.
Dude, Fury-Wilder fight tonight.
Oh, I'm so excited.
I'm so excited.
Your boy got some fucking cash on Wilder.
Dude, you got cash on Wilder?
What are you guys going to watch?
I got a fat fucking chunk on Wilder.
I'm going to watch it at home got a fat fucking chunk of money. I'm going to watch it at home.
That's one of those fights where, man, I don't know what's going to happen,
but if Wilder connects.
Wilder, you saw in the Ortiz fight, he knows how to close the show with one shot.
And on rematches, too.
He's going to know when Fury...
All Fury has to do is leave him one opening. That's it. That's all he needs. He's going to know when Fury... All Fury has to do
is leave him one opening.
That's it.
That's all he needs.
That's so weird.
For 12 rounds?
How many guys
didn't he knock out?
Just one.
There's just one guy.
Tyson Fury.
Well, no.
One, Stiverne,
but he went back
and knocked him out
in the rematch.
In like 30 seconds.
Bro, his record's insane.
How did he survive
the first one?
Which one?
His record's insane.
The guy that survived one and then got knocked out, what's his name?
Stern?
Oh, Severn.
It was earlier in his career.
It was really early.
He got dealt with, though.
It wasn't a good fight.
I'm sure it was Severn.
Stivern.
No, Stivern.
Stivern.
He got starched so hard.
Bermain, Stivern.
Yeah, he got starched so bad.
And he got knocked down.
In the first fight, did he get knocked down?
Yeah, he got knocked down.
Yeah.
But in the rematch, it was...
It was a destruction.
There's memes of it.
It was like one of the worst knockouts.
He hits harder than Tyson?
Yes.
Well, here's the thing about him, man.
Yes?
No one...
Yes.
Well, I would say yes.
Because he's bigger.
No one's had a career like him.
He has 41 knockouts and 42 wins.
Who the fuck has that?
He's got 42 wins, one
draw. 41
KOs. That's crazy.
He put on 10 pounds of lean muscle for this fight.
Do you see him in the weigh-ins? Well, I'm worried about that.
I'm more worried about Tyson. Tyson's super
heavy. Tyson's 20 pounds heavier than they
were when they first fought. And he kept his shirt on.
Teddy Atlas was
talking about that. That's an issue.
You never leave your shirt on at the weigh-ins unless you're fat.
And to me, when I see that, and you know, Tyson Fury is my favorite boxer.
But when I see that and he has some mental issues, I'm like, God, that ain't good.
Well, what I heard was that he had hurt his ankles in training.
And he was talking about it, saying he did something stupid.
I mean, what the fuck did he do that's stupid where he hurt his ankles?
Probably dancing or some shit like he always does. Eddie Hearn
said he saw
something and was like, I had
fury for the rematch. Pretty easily
winning by decision. He goes, then
he saw something. He goes, I don't want to give it away.
My money's on Wilder now. Wow.
I know. You never know with Eddie Hearn, though.
He's a rascally one.
What do we got here?
Jamie, put up the fight card so we can see what's going on. This is the first fight of the night. Here we go. Wow It's a rascally one What do we got here? Magomed How do you say What's

Mustafev
Mustafev

Mustafev
They tell you how to say it
Right Joe?
Like you'll have someone
Yes
They tell you how to say it
Like John Anik's really good at it
John Anik's the best at it
We actually go over it
Before I do the weigh-ins.
I still fuck it up all the time.
It's so tough.
It's hard.
What's the hardest one even still?
Zabit?
His last name?
No.
You got Zabit's last name down?
Yeah, Megamed Sharapov.
That's not that hard.
Joanna, maybe.
Yun-Jit-Chick?
For a long time, Yun-Jit-Chick.
Yun-Jit-Chick?
Yeah.
It sounds like you're going backwards with a record.
Yun-Jit-Chick? Yun-Jit Junchik? Yeah. It sounds like you're going backwards with a record. Junchik?
Junchik.
Yeah.
Number nine?
There we go.
Yeah, Ioana is probably the hardest.
Dude, that boy, Ben Soseli, is thick down there on the card.
The heavyweight, the one after this?
Those are heavyweights, right, Jimmy?
That boy on the left is thick fucking central, dog.
God damn.
Six foot, all 265 of them.
Hell yeah.
Aside from that one.
Go back to the current card, Brad Riddle.
That's this Brad Riddle fellow.
What is this, coffee?
I got coffee here.
You boys trying to whiskey up a little bit?
I'm ready to whiskey up.
Jamie, where's the Buffalo Tres?
You want me to grab it?
No, it should be on the table.
You know what was great, Joe?
Last night for JFL, I did the Vogue Theater, and the early show was Kill Tony.
Bring it over here, Jamie.
So it was Hinchcliffe, Red Band, Jeremiah, all the boys were there.
So when we got in the in the green room
all of them were there
that's what those festivals
are for
you're just with your boys
man
yeah
but we always do that
at the comedy store
like almost every night
I know
that's what's funny
about those things
you go right to the people
that you already hang out
with at the comedy store
that's all you do
yeah
I haven't been
one of those things
those JFL things
in fucking forever
I used to go to them
every year
yeah a lot of people do
right
how about that HBO comedy festival
that we did in Aspen?
Or that you did,
and I tagged along with you?
Back in the day.
Only time I've ever been on a private jet
to this day.
Sick.
First and last.
And that was a crazy one, too,
because they really just designed that
because the executives wanted to go skiing.
So they go,
we'll have a festival.
Bro, they were barely
paying attention to the comedy they're all just into skiing because it's aspen and hell no and
people were partying and skiing and no one got any deals there was no deals what a waste of time
that was a lot of waste and the plane ride smaller private jet me joe chris rock louis ck
and uh their managers fun. It was a trip.
How about Annie Letterman opened up for fucking Louis CK?
Yeah, she's doing a bunch of gigs with Louis.
Yeah.
She did Louis in Denver.
Yep.
Salute, boys.
Oh, shit.
God damn it.
Cheers.
These aren't shots, right?
No, this is whiskey.
We're like, gentlemen, this is Buffalo Trace.
Some grown man shit.
This is a company from the fucking 1700s.
They make all the good shit you drink.
That's legit whiskey.
The best, yeah.
I got into Japanese whiskeys lately, but Buffalo Trace is still the best.
That's American, son.
I know.
I know.
I feel like a trader.
God damn, Buffalo.
It's from Kentucky. Yeah, you're right.
I feel like a trader. That's the real It's from Kentucky. Yeah, you're right. I feel like a traitor.
That's the real shit.
Buffalo Trace is the real shit.
That's my rider from my green room.
I got a bottle of Buffalo Trace everywhere I go, son.
Ear pound it.
That's what I do.
It's the only demand I have.
Just get a couple of shots.
Get the party rolling.

She's such a little badass She's a beast beast she's getting better way better yeah it's interesting
you know she's only been doing martial arts all just any martial art for 10 years damn what she
did growing up nothing 10 years is a lot though it's a lot when she first started fighting the
ufc she has been doing martial arts training, period, four years. I was like, what?
That's nothing.
But she was already 18 and 0 in Muay Thai.
How crazy is that?
That's pretty nuts.
Bro, that's amazing.
She's fun.
Was she a good interview?
Oh, she's hilarious.
She's great.
I had Pete go on.
Oh, how was he?
I love him.
Really?
God, you just root for him more.
He's such a good dude.
He's still so young, man. He's so young. It's interesting. People have already written him just root for him more. He's such a good dude. He's still so young, man.
He's so young.
It's interesting.
People have already written him off.
Which is insane.
It's crazy.
How about that one fight that we saw live on the show?
Oh, my God.
That was insane.
That was nuts.
I fell out of my chair.
Yeah, when he got cracked.
Yeah.
He's with Jacksons now.
I know.
It's interesting.
He's like his mentor.
He left all his trainers?
Yeah, he was out here.
And then he's like, the LA hustle's rough his mentor. He left all his trainers? Yeah, he was out here, yeah.
And then he's like, LA hustle's rough, man.
I used to be in it where you're driving all around.
And he's like, I need one spot.
So he went to Jackson's.
One spot's the move, man.
100%. Less shit to think about, man.
All these people that have to travel and do wrestling over here,
jiu-jitsu over there.
It's like it's got to wear on you.
It's got to wear on you all that time.
Oh!
Beautiful right hand.
Oh, that's...
Last night in Bellator,
that other champ,
I think he's one of Chael Soen's guys,
got knocked out.
My fight clock is not working, by the way.
Oh, it's not?
No, it's an error.
It's making it go in five seconds.
Oh, he's going for a leg lock. Look at that. Oh, it's not? No, it's an error. It's making it go in five seconds.
Oh, he's going for a leg lock.
Look at that.
Oh, interesting.
Look at that shit.
He might have it.
Oh, no, his knee's out.
Oh, he's good.
Damn, he went for it.
And you know what?
You saw that right there?
You know what he did? He went for a leg lock.
Didn't work.
He stood up.
So that could have been planned. Oh, for sure. You understand that? You attack the leg. there you know what he did he went for a leg lock didn't work he stood up so that was a that was
that could have been planned oh you understand that you attack the leg just like damien maya
did to ben askren yeah so you can get that sweet down uh 3 14 in the clock right now 3 13 3 12 3 11
3 10 so if you want to sync it up that's where we're at um we're watching Mustafaev
I think that's how you say his name
Versus Riddle
I like Hardy as a commentator man
Dude he's great
He's great
Dan Hardy's a fucking awesome guy
Beast yeah
He's just an awesome guy
He still wants to fight
That's so strange
For what?
I think he just feels like
He wants one more challenge
He wants to fight at 170
Which is crazy
Cause he's real thin now He looks like he wants one more challenge. He wants to fight at 170, which is crazy because he's real thin now.
He looks like he weighs about 170.
He was always fighting at 170, though.
I know, but he's really thin now.
He was way thicker before.
He's not training so much?
I just don't think he lifts weights anymore.
Maybe he's on that vegan shit.
He might have gone plant-based.
Vegan shit is so hot right now.
Plant-based.
He probably was shot.
I was like, oh, wow.
That's 111 pounds.
He says he feels better than ever.
But you know what?
You got to think.
Rashad was talking about how great his endurance is.
If you lose muscle mass, you will gain endurance.
That is a fact.
You have less tissue than your body's pumping blood through.
You got to be careful, though, right?
That's why the Wilder fight is weird tonight because Wilder gained muscle.
And when you gain that weight, that is more tissue that your body has to pump blood through.
And we'll see.
Because one of the things about Wilder.
Ten more pounds, though.
Yeah.
Well, that's true, too.
But then you've got to look at the you need more work to move stuff because you don't have the muscle.
I mean, doesn't it balance out like that?
You need more work to move stuff?
Yeah, because you have less muscle.
So to move a body, you're going to need more energy.
Oh, yeah, in an MMA fight, but not in a boxing match.
In a boxing match, like in the first fight, Wilder weighed 209 pounds.
Crazy.
Yeah, crazy.
And he still was fucking one shot and puts Tyson Fury down.
He's got crazy power even at 209 but i think there's
an advantage for him being really light in that he maintains his endurance like deep into the fight
in the 12th round he still has crazy knockout power whereas if he starts to fatigue in the 10
11 and 12 rounds because of extra weight that would be a shame i think he knows that if it
goes past like eight he's not not going to outpoint Fury.
That ain't happening.
He has to finish him.
So he doubled down on that, put 10 pounds on.
Maybe, yeah.
And then Fury was like, oh, cool, hold my beer, and then put on a ton more weight.
He's 270.
That ain't good.
Especially with his style.
He was a little chubby in the first fight.
Yeah.
He had a little.
The first fight's fine, though, because he really shouldn't have took that fight at the time.
He fought like two just tomato cans. Then they tossed him to Wilder. Yeah. He had a little. The first fight's fine, though, because he really shouldn't have took that fight at the time. He fought like two just tomato cans.
Then they tossed him to Wilder.
Yeah.
It wasn't smart, man.
Well, we'll see what happens.
I can't wait.
I'm interested in who changes things up and how they change things up.
The thing about Tyson Fury is he's probably the best boxer in the heavyweight division.
He's 6'9".
He's got beautiful movement.
He switches stances.
He'll fight you southpaw, orthodox.
He throws punches while he's switching.
But fucking Wilder can turn the lights off with one shot.
And for 12 rounds?
This is what he says.
He says, they have to be perfect for all 12 rounds.
He goes, I just have to be perfect for one second.
And Fury ain't knocking him out.
It's not his thing.
That's not his MO.
He says he's going to.
I know.
All right, play that game.
Two rounds.
Two rounds.
Two rounds.
The winner of this, well, you'll probably get a trilogy match
because it's in their contract.
They have 30 days or something like that to agree to a trilogy fight.
Is that what it is?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'd love to see Joshua versus Wilder, though.
I think Wilder puts the it is? Yeah. Yeah. I'd love to see Joshua versus Wilder though. I think Wilder
puts the lights out on that.
Yeah.
I think Joshua
is an interesting fighter.
He's smart.
He's a great boxer
but even he's realized
that being too bulky
cost him.
So he's slimmed down a lot.
He doesn't lift weights anymore.
He looked great against Ruiz.
He looked very good
against Ruiz.
He boxed him.
I would have liked to see him
trying to take it to Ruiz
I know
Trying to get it back
He had too much on the line didn't he
He got stopped in that first fight
You know I'd like to see him
In the second fight stop him
That Ruiz got big dude
He got too big
On what 35 pounds
He was 280
He was fat
Hilarious
How much did he wear in the first fight
He probably was 260
He's 60 something He came in like So he came in 20 first fight? He probably was 260. He's 60-something.
He came in 20 pounds heavier in the rematch.
Almost 30.
That's like Rocky II right there, man.
But he was fat and he had been partying.
Yeah, he didn't take it seriously.
I don't know if he didn't take it seriously.
I just think he was having a good fucking time.
Well, you can't take it serious if you're not too good of a time.
I probably thought it was going to be a tough fight, but he also-
But he also loves quesadillas.
Wanted to party.
And eat fucking tacos.
All the tacos.
Yeah, if that guy got a nutritionist, he'd be a light heavyweight.
He's not a big guy.
No, he's short.
Good for him, though, man.
He's a world champ.
But he's a fucking phenomenal boxer.
Great hand.
His hand speed and his coordination is incredible.
I'm excited to see if he gets his shit together.
I want to see him get his shit together.
I want to see him fight Ortiz.
Yeah, man.
Yeah.
Well, Ortiz is 85 years old.
I know, but just like a big fat Mexican versus Cuban.
I wonder if he's ever going to be the same again after that right hand.
Probably not.
Wilder, that right hand was crazy.
He's also, like you said, 60.
At least. At least. At least at least those cubans man i mean everybody says that about the cubans you really have no idea how old they are and they also have like 900 fights before they come turn pro
you're like oh yeah that's happening for sure yeah for sure a lot of amateur fights yeah
they're talking about Canelo vs.
Billy Joe Saunders
Yes
I think it's kind of confirmed
We've been talking about this for a while
That's a very interesting fight
Very interesting fight
My number one fight
Is Terrence Crawford
Versus Errol Spence Jr.
Errol Spence Jr.
And Terrence Crawford
Is the number one fight
Love that fight
Never gonna see it
You don't think so?
No because the stupid promoter's in boxing
They're ruining boxing
Way to go guys
i don't know there's a lot of money in that fight man there is come together but it's just like you
know it's just like with pat gow and mayweather like we get it four or five years late it's just
what boxing does yeah it's such a shame that's why the ufc went cool story dude and just sailed
on past and just crushing it because we get the fights you want to see. Every time you get the fight you want to see.
This fight's pretty good right here.
We wouldn't have even watched it.
How do you say it?
Is it Riddell or Riddle?
Is it possible to put the fight on there too?
Because his head's in the way, no?
That big ass head.
This giant nugget.
With that MAGA hat.
Staying in the Trump Tower wearing a MAGA hat.
No, wearing a hat that says Supreme.
Supreme MAGA.
Dude, that could be White supremacy right there
Oh my god
It's MAGA colors
And it says Supreme
You can't wear red hats
These days
You can't wear red hats
At all huh
Isn't that funny
You'll get killed
So ridiculous
Red hat with white letters
Someone will try to fuck you up
I wear this all the time
It says make America great again
It's hilarious
I wear this all the time
Come at me bro
A lady got maced in the face
Cause she had a hat
That said make Bitcoin great again And someone got maced in the face because she had a hat that said, make Bitcoin great again.
And someone maced her in the face.
Fuck yeah.
Like, you can't make Bitcoin great again?
Also a stupid hat.
Also a stupid hat.
Yeah, but I mean, imagine.
She'd get maced in the face, though.
If you get maced for having a stupid hat, how about those pussy hats those girls wear?
Oh my God.
Those women's marches.
Oh, I was in Dallas.
They had those on.
They look absolutely ridiculous.
What are they?
The pussy hats.
They're these pink.
Pussy hats.
Girls wear hats like pussy hats.
Like big pussies on them?
Like a cat with little ears.
It's pink.
It's like because of the grab my pussy thing.
Grab them by the pussy.
Meow.
Get it?
LOL.
Well, your boy Bloomberg got lit up and they fucking lighten his ass up.
It was like Comedy Central roast.
Listen, you can't buy your way into the White House.
No, dude.
People think you can.
Because they think, well, Trump did it.
No, he didn't.
He's still got charisma.
Bloomberg has zero of that.
Zero.
There's nothing popping there.
And you can't hire people to write funny things for you.
That shit ain't going to work.
No, it's terrible for them.
All of it's gross.
They're trying to steal it from Bernie.
They're trying to steal it.
He won today in Nevada.
Bernie's killing it.
It's over.
I'm not mad at my boy Pete.
Don't have the experience.
Suck your dick.
But he's fucking.
He's pretty.
His resume's impressive.
Well, he's the mayor of a city that's not doing so well, and they're not happy with him.
Oh, really?
They're not happy with him?
No.
Especially the minority population in South Bend.
It's one of those things where if you're a mayor, you imagine, first of all, it's hard enough being a fucking mayor.
You have a lot of things to do.
Nightmare.
And you're also running for president?
How are you doing that?
He stopped being mayor last month, apparently.
Oh, did he?
Did he step down?
Oh.
Well, that's smart.
That's what you got to do. Is his boyfriend on the trail with him it's his husband you piece of shit
who takes over now that he's not a mayor anymore that's the same thing for senators
like how do senators do that how come senators and congress people can be they can be senators
and congress people and still be on the campaign trail. You're clearly not doing your job 100%. There's no way.
There's no way.
How are you allowed to half-ass your job?
And just put the other job on the back burner while you're going for this other job?
If you're a congressman, a congresswoman, and a senator, you're definitely not doing the best.
I don't see how you could.
There's no way.
Because that's like saying you could half-ass the job while you, while you're there, yeah, that doesn't require much.
They don't do shit anyways, though.
But they must do something.
You're running for president.
You have to sign some shit.
No, running for president, yeah, you're busy.
But being a senator?
Right, but I mean, while you're running for president, there's no way you could be on top of all the senators.
You can't water both lawns.
Good for Mayor Pete for stepping away and giving that job that nobody wants to somebody
else.
Yeah, I guess I'll do it.
Those guys, they get these gigs like that as a stepping stone.
It's so transparent.
Like when Clinton was mayor of Arkansas or governor of Arkansas.
Who the fuck wants to be governor of Arkansas?
That's when he got in big trouble.
No disrespect, Arkansas.
That's when he got in big trouble.
Big trouble.
That's when he was getting all the fucking coke dropped in from Barry Seals. Yes. They were dropping that coke in on me, Arkansas. That's when he got in big trouble. Big trouble. That's when he was getting all the fucking coke dropped in from Barry Seals.
Yes.
They were dropping that coke in on me in Arkansas.
That's the real deal.
That Tom Cruise movie.
Oh, yeah?
Fuck yeah.
That movie's based on a real goddamn story.
They busted them because these kids got murdered.
These kids got murdered that found the drop.
These kids found the cocaine.
They dropped cocaine out of planes.
Barry Seals was flying in from south america with coke and they would it would push it out of parachutes
in mina arkansas so they would go and pick it up we're talking fucking millions of dollars with a
coke and these two kids found it and so they murdered these two kids and left their body on
the railroad tracks damn and the official story was they they smoked marijuana got so high that they fell asleep on come on who bought but then the parents that's that's when the scandal
came so the parents were big scandal man the parents knew something was wrong they knew this
wasn't how their kids were so the parents got autopsies and they found the kids had been stabbed
damn yeah and that's what happens when you try to blame weed for some shit and you don't know
exactly how it works yeah that's so stupid exactly how it works yeah maybe if you did like
a pound of mushrooms you might do that yeah but even even that you're not gonna get the fuck away
from the train yes you hear choo choo you're out man so this this whole place in arkansas and the
people that were already dead you could tell they were already dead before the train ran over what's
the movie eddie's made in America? American Made?
American Made. It's a good fucking movie.
They don't talk about the kids in that, do they? No, they do not.
Oh, okay, yeah. I saw some clips.
I don't remember the kids. The movie was all about Barry Seals
who was dropping cocaine.
I mean, that guy met
with all the major cartel people.
You know, I mean, he met with Noriega.
He met with
Pablo Escobar. My boy Billy had something to do with this?
Billy Corbin?
Clinton.
Clinton.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, for sure.
Yeah, Clinton was in the movie.
Clinton lets him slide.
In the movie, they bust him at one point in time, and Clinton has him released.
His Iran-Contra scandal was all connected.
Well, listen, man.
They were making money.
They were making a shitload of money.
Somebody was making an ungodly sum of money bringing cocaine to the United States.
Do we know who that was?
We don't know.
We don't know.
But we know for sure that at one point in time, the government was running cocaine through
South Central Los Angeles.
Goddamn.
And my friend, Michael Rupert, busted that.
And he got on television in front of fucking, what was it?
Was it C-SPAN?
I forget what it was.
It was C-SPAN?
Yeah, it was like the LA City Council.
Yes.
And he said on television, I work for the Los Angeles Narcotics Division.
And we have personally caught CIA people selling cocaine in the inner city.
And the fucking whole room was going crazy. Everybody's cheering and screaming.
Is he still alive?
No, he committed suicide.
His boss was
allegedly George Bush Sr.
He was the one
on top. Well, that was
Freeway Ricky Ross.
Freeway Ricky Ross was the guy who was selling all that shit
and had no idea that the reason why he was
able to move so much coke was because he was in business with the government.
Jesus Christ.
He didn't even know it.
Freeway Ricky Ross.
He's been on the podcast before, too.
Yeah, that's the real Rick Ross.
Like, you know Rick Ross, the rapper?
He stole his name from Freeway Ricky.
Man, boy, did he run with it, though.
Yeah, he did.
He ran with it.
He's killing it.
Well, Freeway Ricky, he also owns Vander Holyfield's house in Atlanta.
Oh, wow.
Burrow.
Burrow.
That thing's the Bellagio.
It's the craziest house you've ever seen.
Isn't it like 75 bedrooms or something?
It's something insane.
What are you going to do with that?
I just watched a Vander Holyfield.
Mike Tyson won the other day on Instagram.
Fuck.
Amazing.
Whoa, what a fight.
Dude, that was a great fight.
That was one of those fights where you couldn't believe it live when they stopped the fight.
Like, he did it.
Nuts.
Holyfield did it.
Bro, there was a really interesting interview with Mike Tyson the other day, man, on his Instagram page.
Mike Tyson's a deep motherfucker, man.
He's so deep.
He's been through some shit, man.
He's so deep.
Yeah.
You know?
I mean, he was just talking about like his his life and like what
he used to try to say to himself to pump himself up because he has low self-esteem you know what
when he was on he was on your podcast right man one question i want someone to ask him is
they've mentioned it before but no one ever gets really too deep into it on uh you know the fact
that custom auto had him hypnotized he did it he talked it on the fact that Cus D'Amato had him hypnotized.
He did it.
He talked about it on the podcast in depth.
And then when Cus died, did the hypnotism stop?
Yeah, because Cus was doing it.
Cus was a hypnotist.
When he was 13, when he was a little kid, Cus was hypnotizing him.
Maybe he hypnotized him into thinking he was a demon.
Well, he hypnotized him into being a machine.
Yeah, that's what I'm talking about.
That's what I mean.
Well, there's so many factors right first of all was his terrible childhood right yes mike had a terrible childhood no love and then all sudden he finds out that he's
crazy physically gifted like us i mean uh teddy atlas told me that when mike tyson was 13 years
old they would take him to these little amateur fights and he was 190 pounds 13 years old. They would take him to these little amateur fights, and he was 190 pounds.
13 years old.
Jesus Christ.
190.
Just fucking jacked.
Just a tank.
Just naturally jacked.
Some of the 13-year-olds are like, what the fuck?
Well, they didn't believe him.
They made him fight like 16, 17-year-olds,
because they're like, he's not 13.
He's at least 16.
I wonder if there's any video of him being hypnotized backstage.
I wonder.
Maybe that was the fucking key.
Kostamada said he would do it backstage before he walked out.
I don't know about that.
Yeah, yeah.
Before the fights.
He would get hypnotized before the fights backstage.
Well, he hypnotized him from the time that he was really young,
and he told him, like, you don't exist.
It's just a task, a task at hand.
You would have him just break these guys down.
He was still all these factors, right?
The guy has no love. he has this terrible childhood then he's physically gifted and he winds up with
a fucking one of the all-time great boxing coaches particularly for the mind yes and teddy atlas when
teddy was young and his prime was also an amazing boxing coach and he's up in the catskills where
he's up in the mountains in this secluded environment
so he can concentrate only on boxing.
He's getting hypnotized.
And he's watching Jimmy Jacobs has this insane library of fights.
Everything from Jack Dempsey to Joe Louis to Henry Armstrong.
He's watching the all-time greats.
He's watching all this black and white footage of Jack Johnson from back in the day.
Oh, I don't know.
What a story.
I don't know.
But there's so much that led to him becoming, at least for a few years, the greatest heavyweight boxer ever.
And you think the hypnosis stuff actually worked?
Yeah, fuck yeah.
Fuck yeah, for sure.
Could you do it on other people?
Yeah, you could hypnotize people.
Look at his face when he'd walk into the ring in early fights.
He looked like a murderer.
Like he was going to murder somebody.
Like a monster.
He was a monster.
He was incredible, man.
I mean, look, no one can sustain the kind of pace that he kept up in the early days.
But man, I still maintain when he fought Marvis Frazier, that was as scary as a heavyweight
has ever been.
Terrified.
When he fought Michael Spinks, he was as scary as a heavyweight has ever been. Terrified. When he fought Michael Spinks, he's as scary as a heavyweight has ever been.
It was a phenom, right?
It was just like this.
His fight was like everybody shut down and watched it.
Yeah.
And they would starch dudes and people would complain if it was too short.
You would think that maybe there'd be some UFC fighters that are getting hypnotized.
Like, what's up?
They are.
They got to look into that.
I'm sure.
They don't have the strength. Vinny Shorman does that shit. Who's that? Vinny Sh, what's up? They are. They got to look into that. I'm sure. They don't have to say who.
Vinny Shorman does that shit.
Who's that?
Vinny Shorman.
He's a hypnotist.
He's also a commentator.
Diego Sanchez is Coach Mike.
What is this?
This is Tyson in the early days.
Oh, that's him and Marvis Frazier.
Look at that face.
The Marvis Frazier fight, dude.
That was the fight.
That was the fight.
That guy looks scary.
Oh, they're all scary.
Dude, remember Bruce Seldon's face?
Oh, yeah.
Bruce Seldon got knocked out by a punch.
Oh, that's the worst because of his afro?
That's by far the worst.
Dude, Mike Tyson was just destroying people back in the day.
Just destroying people.
It was a different time, man.
Look at this.
Boom!
That was when he won the title.
It was a different, you know, the heavyweight division before him was bullshit.
He also didn't test back then.
I hate to be a stickler.
You could say the same thing.
I hate to be that guy that didn't test back then.
Do you think he was on the sauce?
Tyson?
Come on, bro.
Do you?
Do you think he was?
He would admit it, wouldn't he?
Wouldn't Tyson admit that?
I think he would.
He would.
Has anyone ever asked him? That's a good question. I wouldn't ask him. He's so honest. I'm not asking that? I think he would. He would. Has anyone ever asked him?
That's a good question. He's so
honest. I'm not asking him. I would ask him.
I would ask him. You should have.
I should have. I didn't think about it. It's what they did back then.
I don't think he needed it. He was small.
Look at Evander Holyfield. He was small.
Look at Evander Holyfield. He could win.
Evander's different.
When Tyson came out of jail, though, Evander Holyfield
for sure did something. When Tyson
came out of jail, evander holyfield for sure did something yeah when tyson came out of jail when tyson came out of jail he was so ridiculously ripped
what was that mcneely is that his name the dude he fought when he got out of jail yeah yeah yeah
go to some poor soul people do roids in jail oh if you're mike tyson they've got him steaks and
roy's probably eating prime rib every night did you ask him about his life his time in jail no
i didn't we talked about so many.
You know, after three.
He's talking to Mike motherfucking Tyson.
Yeah, you don't want to go too deep.
Three hours.
Yeah.
For three hours, you only get so much you could talk about, you know.
It was just incredible to be there.
You know what the funniest take on him?
Kamaru Usman.
Kamaru Usman said he was doing this thing with Mike Tyson.
He's hanging out.
He goes, it's like you're sitting next to a lion.
And it's like, that's really Mike Tyson?
It's like a lion's there.
Yeah, you're scared.
I hope he keeps it together.
I hope he keeps it together.
Because it's like he's a lion.
He's a destroyer.
Dude, I've done a podcast with him.
And it was like, it was one of his first podcasts.
It was me, him, and Brian was there.
And Tice was on the side of me hearing the exact same thing.
I was like, well, we didn't freak the fuck out.
And he's in all sweats.
And he was so out of it, like on medication.
Oh, was he?
Yeah, he was like a drugged up lion at that day.
I wonder if they got him on medication now or if it's just weed.
I think it was before the weed.
He was on all this medication, and it was not his fault.
He's kind of out to lunch on these pills, but it was a weird podcast.
Isn't that funny that guys get on all these pills and weed just sorts it all out?
Yep.
For some people.
Remember that story you talked about when he used to date that one Robin Givens and
then they broke up.
They were probably married, right? Did they broke up they were probably married right did they get
married they got married and then after they got divorced he said he was apparently still
banging her every now and then and then he shows up and like brad pitt's with her
can you imagine what brad pitt was thinking he's like, oh my God. Big fan, big fan, big fan. Oh, dude. Hey, let me get the fuck out of there.
We didn't even do anything.
We didn't even do anything.
Can you imagine what was going through his mind?
Dear Brad, dude.
Mike Tyson pulls up in a Porsche.
Mike Tyson might make you stay in the room while he fucks Robin.
He might make you stay in the room.
Or he might make you suck his dick, too.
You never know, man.
I'm going to have her suck my dick
And then I'm gonna come in your face
You stay put
You sit on that chair right there
You can sit on that chair dog
You're like no I'd just rather leave
I'd rather take my leave
Mike is it okay to leave?
That's not an option
That's not an option
Poor Brad Pitt must have been fucking terrified
Out of all the people in the world Dude Poor Brad Pitt must have been fucking terrified.
Out of all the people in the world, that should disqualify you from ever dating her.
Your ex-husband.
Who?
Who's your ex?
Dude, sometimes a girl's so fine, you'll risk it all, dude.
Mike Tyson, John Jones.
It don't matter.
If they're fine enough, dude, you'll risk it all.
This is Figueredo, who's going to fight Joe Benavidez for the title yeah what do they do with that title after that what are you gonna do it's hard to get people excited about dudes
that weigh 125 pounds unfortunately the hardest because if mighty mouse couldn't excite people
man i mean mighty mouse is the the greatest expression of mixed martial arts talent i've
ever seen i've never seen anybody as good as Mighty Mouse. He couldn't get people excited. Nobody wanted to buy
those pay-per-views.
It's unfortunate.
But I think Mighty Mouse did
the right thing. Going to Asia is the right move
because they love him over there.
Let me ask this, Joe. When you see
if the main event's a 125-pound
fight versus a light heavyweight
fight or heavyweight fight, you feel different
about it.ends on who
Mighty Mouse is fighting
When Mighty Mouse
Fought Cejudo
I was very excited
The first time?
The second time
The second time
Yeah
But you
See
The first time I was excited too
It is what it is though
Because they're 125 pounds
But if I see
You know
John Jones
Versus
Dominic Reyes
Or John Jones
Versus
You know
Stipe
Or something like that
That'll get your dick hard
Because you know You're about to see some shit.
Those little guys, it is what it is, man.
It is what it is.
It's unfortunate.
You're always going to get the most excited when, like,
we're going to watch Tyson Fury and Deontay Wilder tonight.
Heavyweights.
As the heavyweight division goes, so does boxing.
You could say that about MMA, too.
I think with MMA, there's still real exciting fights in the lighter divisions.
And there is in boxing as well.
Like I said, Errol Spence Jr. and Terrence Crawford.
That's the fight I want to see.
But in the UFC, at welterweight 170, middleweight 185, 155, 145 male, dude, it is fucking cracking.
It's cracking.
One through 15 is banging.
Isn't that funny?
45 to 25 is just 20 pounds. It's a big deal, though. It's cracking. One through 15 is banging. Isn't that funny? 45 to 25 is just 20 pounds.
It's a big deal, though.
The biggest deal.
It's weird.
It's a huge deal.
It's weird.
The UFC's never been better, man.
There's so much talent, so deep.
What do you think about Adesanya saying he wants to fight Stipe?
He's crazy, dude.
He wants to go straight up to Stipe.
He's crazy.
He's tall enough.
He's tall enough.
He's got the frame. He's a big boy, dude. He wants to go straight up to Stipe. He's crazy. He's tall enough. He's got the frame. He's got the frame.
He's a big boy, man.
I think he probably walks around about 210, 215 maybe.
I don't see anything wrong with that.
So he would only have to gain like 20 pounds.
He would light Stipe up on the feet there.
How long do you think Stipe would keep it on the feet?
That's the question.
What's Stipe going to do?
But also how's Stipe going to look?
What's his wrestling background?
Cleveland State, Division 1 AA. He can fucking wrestle. But also, how's Stipe going to look? What's his wrestling background? Cleveland State, Division I AA.
National champion?
No.
Stipe's a beast, man.
Super beast.
He's an enormous man, too.
I mean, Stipe's an enormous heavyweight.
Six-four.
Yeah.
But he's thick as fuck.
Yeah, he's a firefighter, for God's sake.
He's walking around 250, solid as a rock, you know?
250 with abs.
Doesn't he have an injury or something?
He's got a knife problem.
He's had some rough times, so. He's got a bunch of problems. How's he have an injury or something? He's got a knife problem. He's had some rough times.
He's got a bunch of problems.
How's he going to come back after that?
Well, he may not.
Or he might not.
I mean, I don't want to say too much about what his injury is because I don't know how
open he's been about it, but if he could fight, he would be fighting right now.
They would set up that rematch with DC.
That's what they would do.
Part three? That's what they would do part three would do part three yeah yeah that's what they would do that's what i'm just waiting for john to go to fucking heavyweight dude john at heavyweight is exciting it's the only thing
exciting very exciting very exciting very exciting it's interesting though i want to see the dominic
reyes rematch as much as I want to see that
I want to see that fight
They're talking about Jan Blachowicz
I know
Which is interesting
I mean I'm interested in seeing that
But I just don't think he's going to be able to stop John from taking him down
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah he's going to have a problem with that
For sure
Because Corey Anderson took him down a shit load in the first fight
John is a different beast
Poor Corey Anderson dude
He's for sure going to get that title shot,
building up, talking shit to John,
and just get starched.
He just got clipped.
Clipped.
Playing that game.
Bohovic fucking, he can crack.
See what he did to Luke?
I know.
Broke Luke's jaw.
I know.
He punches fucking hard, man.
And at light heavyweight,
he's not depleting himself anymore.
He's a good example of a guy who went up.
And it worked.
And it worked.
It worked spectacularly.
He eats whatever the fuck he wants now.
Who knows, man?
I mean, where John is now, you know?
I mean, John has the toughest fights with guys that he's not totally pumped for.
You know what I'm saying?
Makes sense, too.
John Jones.
That's what I'm saying.
Dude, go to fucking heavyweight.
Before it's too late, man.
Go to heavyweight and fight DC. How about that? That's what I'm saying, dude. Go to fucking heavyweight before it's too late, man.
Go to heavyweight and fight DC.
How about that?
That's what I'm saying.
You got Stipe there.
You got Overeem. You got Francis.
If DC wants to fight one more time and he wants to fight John at heavyweight,
that would maybe be one fight that he would get outside of Stipe
because he said if Stipe can't fight anymore, he's probably done.
What do you mean? That what dc oh d oh if he don't oh he's 40 years old yeah you're right yeah i mean and he's
had a great life and he has an amazing career as a commentator he's one of the best commentators
ever you guys are great together he's fun i love that guy so if he wants to if he decides that this
is it you know that that could it, that could be it.
John might get him out of bed for that, though.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
John at heavyweight, yeah, that might do it.
If DC decides that he doesn't have to lose weight, let me give one more shot at John Jones.
At heavyweight, I like his chances.
Better than light heavyweight.
They fought two or three times.
Two times.
Two times.
Yeah.
Do you think at light heavyweight John Has too much of an advantage
Because DC
DC had never beaten
At light heavyweight
It's just not in the books for him
Yeah it's just not there
It's unfortunate
I love DC
Heavyweight though
DC you know
He can crack a little bit
I'd love to see at heavyweight
Yeah
He'd still be an underdog
But it's definitely better
His odds definitely get better
As the weight goes up
DC's an amazing heavyweight man
He's just not stupid
Against deep bay But who knows how good John will be amazing heavyweight, man. He just fought stupid against Deep Bay.
But who knows how good John will be at heavyweight.
I've seen him with other heavyweights.
He ragdolls bitches.
He's a beast, man.
And he's walking around a natural 230.
But John's also getting older, though, man.
How old is he?
31?
32?
That ain't that old.
He has some miles on him, though. He's got a lot of miles. He's slowed getting older though, man. How old is he? 31? 32? That ain't that old. He has some miles on him though.
He's got a lot of miles.
He's slowed down a tad.
Let's just call it what it is.
You got to wonder how much of that slowing down is his enthusiasm, how much of it is physical.
Right?
Yeah.
I mean, maybe if a big fight comes up like a Stipe Miocic fight.
I know.
Or Francis.
You're right.
You're right.
And I said, yeah, you're right. I go and that and i said yeah you're right i i go
back and forth i go maybe he's slowing down he's getting older and i go or maybe he just doesn't
give a fuck about these contenders he's fighting and you know he's out partying at the super ball
and then he's like you know the week before the fight he's at the super ball they can't fly you
know beat them okay yeah cool yeah fight yon what where? Yeah let's do it But then hey you got Francis
You make one wrong move
And you get knocked out
I bet we see a fucking gnarly ass John Jones
He had a couple of years off
Because of all of his troubles
Outside of the Octagon right?
Two years where he really wasn't fighting
But other than that
He's had nine solid years
Against world championship
Best of the best who they who
never did anything to him nobody he never he never took any damage gustafson
the one fight where he didn't train gustafson gustafson one fight and shit that's that's
basically none of that he's yeah you're right he starched everybody hurt his elbow on matt
hamill's face.
He's never been knocked down, right?
No.
Never been knocked down.
I mean, he got knocked down. He slipped against Dominic.
By Dominic.
Hit him in the chest and knocked him down.
Could have slipped.
It wasn't a knockdown like Tyson Fury, Deontay Wilder.
It wasn't that kind of knockdown.
Gussman took him down.
That was the only time he got taken down.
Is that the only time?
Yeah, DC didn't take him down.
No.
Yeah.
I'm excited to see that rematch.
I think Dominic Reyes would be even better in the rematch.
I think Dominic Reyes realizes now it's all about having the energy in that third, fourth, and fifth round.
And having already been to the top of the mountain and faced the dragon, I think he's going to come back better than ever.
Here's the thing.
That dragon in rematches gets way better and goes, oh, you're an actual threat?
I'm going to prepare for it this time.
And he fucks dudes up in rematches.
Gustafson starched.
DC starched.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I'd like to see it.
I want to see what Reyes can do, too.
And Reyes got that rub now, right?
Reyes is going to come into that second fight knowing that he came a cunt hair away from being the light heavyweight champion in the world.
And, you know, I mean, one judge gave it to John four rounds to one, which is fucking embarrassingly bad.
Supposedly that guy owns an MMA gym as well.
That's so hilarious.
Isn't that crazy?
God, get off his nuts, dude.
Yeah, it just doesn't make any sense.
Be less obvious.
It doesn't make any sense.
Figure it out. You know what? People just look at fights differently sometimes you know what i mean
because back you know there's dudes that look at um rounds where uh even to this day where a guy
gets taken down and he doesn't do any damage but he you know and um uh they'll still give it to the
guy on the bottom just because the guy on top didn't do any damage.
You know what I mean?
And then there's guys that for sure, no matter what, if you get a takedown, you're going to win the round.
If the other guy didn't get a takedown, right?
And there's guys that, I mean, in the early 2000s, I knew some judges.
I don't want to say any names.
But they would give a round to a dude who escaped a bunch of submissions because that guy had him in great positions,
and he couldn't play his game.
He couldn't implement his game,
and he had all this great position on him,
had his back, and he escaped.
So I'm going to give it to the guy who escaped.
Like, that's extreme.
It's such a shit show.
Yeah.
There's guys like that out there.
So it's not necessarily that, you know.
It's not necessarily the retardation.
Wasn't Ricardo Almeida
Judge for a second
Yeah he was
And he just thought
He was like
Ah fuck this
I think he's too
Too busy
You know
He's got a successful school
You know
He's got that big school
Cody Garbrandt's up there
With him now
He is really
He's with him
And Mark Henry
Interesting
That's very interesting
That's a very good match
For him
To calm him down
Make him fight more technically
Don't let him get caught in the slug test.
That's what Pico was saying when he went to Greg Jackson's.
They're trying to get him out of that sixth gear.
Like, dude, you don't have to finish this guy in five minutes.
Use your skills.
And they're trying to harness him.
Because when you see him fight, there's so much fucking passion that he just wants to destroy people.
Well, he has ridiculous power.
But he also—
He also destroys people in training. I'mclass got destroyed the stories about him are insane man
really just i mean i'll tell you i fear i mean guys we know where he just mops the floor with
them so he gets in there with a guy who's four and one or five one he's like oh i'm gonna fuck
this dude up and he gets so antsy he wants to get him out there and that's when he gets caught
well it's also he's standing up with everybody.
He's got an incredible wrestling pedigree, and here he is standing up with everybody.
He's not threatening with the takedowns.
At the very least, like if you're fighting an MMA fight, right,
at the very least you should make it so that the opponent has no idea what you're going to do.
And he doesn't do that.
His problem is he's also a world-class boxer.
Yeah.
When I talk to Freddie Roach about him, he goes,
oh, he could be a world champion boxer right now.
At 140, he could go on and be a world champion.
That's crazy.
He goes, when he was younger, I used to toss him in there with Miguel Cotto.
World champions you know, and he held his own, won some rounds.
That's crazy.
I'm like, what the fuck?
And he was a kid.
That's crazy.
Yeah. It's nuts man he's
he's such a what is he now 23 22 or 23 wow lives in albuquerque has horses there oh so he bought
a farm out there yeah he's like he just moved everything out there he's everything everything
got horses he's in full control of you know with with g Greg Jackson, and they're just doing work, man.
Wow.
It's a good story.
That's a very good story.
That's interesting.
Especially when he becomes world champion.
Right.
If they can turn him around.
He said he walked, like he was thinking about what coaches he was going to work with,
and he walked into Greg Jackson's office and was like, right away,
I was like, oh, this is home.
Really?
He was like, I moved a week later.
What was it about Greg Jackson?
He just said there was some weird connection there where mentally he was just on the same wave path and was just like yeah
this is it man really and he's like i've never felt better i've never you know and i get it
greg's a mastermind man greg's the to me the best there is how many people do they have at jackson's
a ton if you had a guess like how many fighters i haven't been there so long i don't know there's a ton but when i hear all like the the drama every big gym has drama but jackson just
gets out there more because the guys talk about it but it's just like they're like oh he gives
john jones too much attention are you talking about the best fighter of all time tell me the
best fighter of all time yeah yeah yeah yeah no shit dude of course yeah and these other these
older fighters i get it man you know but it's like like John's in the – he's still there, man.
He's in the race.
A lot of you guys aren't.
Yeah.
So if you're Greg, it's tough to figure out dealing with these personalities.
You only have so much time, man.
You know how it is.
Yeah, you only have so much time.
You have superstars.
So he's like the Phil Jackson.
You have Michael Jordan over here.
You got Scottie Pippen.
You got Dennis Rodman.
You got all these guys, and you're trying to manage Everyone's ego
And MMA
It's just a different animal
And you got Mike Smith
Sitting over here
Guys
I'm on the team too
Yeah
Guys
No we know
We know dude
Is Mike Smith a real guy
Or did you just make him up
There probably is a Mike Smith
Or Jackson
Probably was a Mike Smith
That was playing for the Lakers
I'm fucked dude
Yeah
Those gym dynamics.
It happened in Denver, man.
Everyone got,
you guys got famous
thanks to, you know,
your coach is wearing
a shirt that
conflicts with your sponsor,
but he's getting paid.
It's just crazy, dude.
He's doing interviews
and shit.
Oh, that's where it's crazy.
Like, oh,
what is happening?
There's sponsorships
on his mitts.
Oh, no.
What the fuck, dude?
Really?
Oh, yeah.
It's crazy. If a coach is wearing some shit
That conflicts with your sponsor
And he's training you
That is not good
How do you work that out
I mean you
You don't deal with it
That's just business though
That's business dude
Coach got to pay the rent too
He's got kids too
You think he's just fucking doing this for free
No
He's got shit to do
So when
You know what I mean
This is Coach Eddie over here.
Yeah, it's like, relax.
Everybody's trying to blow up.
He just has sponsorship logos all over him.
I have no sponsors.
Puts on a Reebok hat.
I have no personal sponsors.
Hey, are you working with Tony?
Absolutely.
What have you been doing with him?
We've been preparing for Khabib for a long time.
Fuck yeah.
For the Dos Anjos fight, we were preparing for him, but we were also preparing for...
We're always preparing for the worst case scenario, and Khabib is the worst case scenario.
He's probably the best ground and pounder wrestler ever, right?
This is the toughest challenge ever in MMA for 10th Planet.
That's for sure.
I mean, this is it.
This is the worst case scenario
that I've been talking about.
This is what I prepare for every,
me personally,
my Abu Dhabi is at the gym
when we have drop-ins
and since 2003,
who knows who's going to drop in that night
and challenge me.
So I always prepare for the worst case scenario. Some drop-in who's going to drop in that night and challenge me? So I always prepare
for the worst case scenario. Some drop in who's
190, who wrestled his whole life,
who's really good at jiu-jitsu, and
what am I going to do with him?
That first round,
the only round we go with, probably one round, maybe
two, I'm just focusing
on stuff that he's never seen.
Because if I come at him with stuff he's
seen, then that's not a. Because if I come at him with stuff he's seen,
then that's not a good strategy.
I'm going to pull him into some uncharted territory.
And that's what we're doing.
That's what I've been doing with Tony.
That's brilliant.
Just uncharted territory. The thing with Khabib, Khabib is undefeated,
no doubt one of the best fighters probably of all time.
He's never lost a round.
Yeah.
One.
Connor.
Round three.
But you've got to remember this, too.
Iaquinta, maybe.
There are a couple of Khabib fights.
We watch all the Khabib fights where you do see where you don't see the classic Khabib. Like with Gleason Tabal, that didn't go down like...
Oh, fuck, I missed the thick kid.
Crazy heavyweight fight.
The thick kid got knocked out.
Thick boy nation got knocked out.
Fuck.
Jamie's over here watching the fight.
And he has a mullet like Theo.
Fuck.
Wow.
There's so many reasons I want to watch that.
What I was saying was there are some fights where Khabib wasn't...
Looks human.
Looks human. Looks human.
There are a couple.
You also look at the Dos Anjos fight.
He clearly won that, but there was things that he couldn't do that he could do with other people.
Dos Anjos.
Dos Anjos.
He couldn't get past Dos Anjos guard.
You know what I mean?
It wasn't that easy to take down.
And Tony, when you know the Conor fight
with Khabib
you know
Tony wrestled
this whole goddamn life
Tony's phenomenal wrestler
there's a
light ear difference
between
Conor's wrestling
and Tony's wrestling
right
so you got that
Tony
will throw Darce's
standing
and from all different angles
while you're trying
to take him down
so Khabib's gotta worry
about that
there's gonna be Darce's coming on the feed.
Damn, don't give out too much, bro.
Everybody knows that.
You can watch that.
Everybody knows that.
I'm only giving away stuff that you can watch on.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, people know.
Are you going to be in Brooklyn?
What was that?
Are you going to be in Brooklyn for that?
Yeah, yeah.
And so we're focusing on the stuff.
When Khabib has his way,
when he's in a fight where everything's going his way, it's against the fence.
There's a look against the fence that he always has.
It's that same look.
And then when he drags the guy down, it's that same look.
And when they are halfway back up, there's that look.
And then they're back on the fence.
There's that position, that look.
Boom.
So when it comes to Khabib, it's going to be the hardest challenge ever, right?
For both guys, though.
Yeah, for sure.
For sure.
But the advantage that we have is we know exactly where the fight is going to be if Khabib gets like, you know.
If he's successful.
If he's successful.
And there's different phases.
There's the stand-up phase.
There's the clinch.
There's the fighting against the fence.
There's the dragging. And then there's the um the fighting against the fence there's the dragging
and then there's like in between the fence and dragon we know where the fight can be um you know
um the one thing we don't know is how is it going to look is it going to look like um you know
khabib has his way and passes tony's guard like he has against other opponents or is it going to be
like gleason to bow or he's having a hard time taking him down.
And he's never getting side control,
never passing the guard against Gleason.
Is it going to look like that?
How is it going to look?
It could look so many different ways.
We'll never really know until they match up.
You just don't really know.
I can't wait.
But I will promise you this,
is we got all sorts of landmines waiting for him.
We got some traps.
We know where he wants to take the fight, and there's going to be some traps there. all sorts of landmines waiting for us we know where the fight where he wants to
take the fight and there's going to be some traps there all sorts of them and no one knows about
them we're not talking about them but we've been working on this for for a while so who knows what's
going to happen khabib has all you know has my respect a million percent that guy's that guy's insane. If you didn't respect Khabib, you'd have to be crazy.
You can't be my friend.
Tony has so many goddamn weapons.
He might have more weapons than anybody in the history of the UFC.
That's fair.
He might have more weapons. It's me, Hard R.
That's fair.
He's such a great scrambler, too.
He's got so many different areas of his game.
Think about this.
In the history of MMA, who has known more for darsing than him?
Who?
Nobody.
No one's even fucking close.
No one's even fucking close.
And he catches them late in the fight when everyone's covering sweat and blood like Barboza.
Yeah, yeah.
And the dars is one of those techniques that is, you could learn really, the darts is one of those techniques
that is,
you could learn really,
the learning part is the easiest part.
Like learning how to do a darts,
it can be like two minutes,
like two minutes,
but mastering it
and mastering it enough to be known for it
and getting grown ass men
who are experts at ground fighting on it,
that's a whole,
very few people reach that status.
Again, there were Darshis.
Everybody knows the Darshis.
Every grappler in Abu Dhabi,
like the last Abu Dhabi 2019,
every grappler on the card
knows how to do a Darshis.
They know how to teach it.
They could do a seminar on it,
but no one did it.
Only one guy,
the Rutolo,
one of the Rutolo twins,
he's from Atos.
That guy,
like he was Darshis, there was Darshis all over the place. Why? Everybody knows how to doos that guy like he was there was Darsons
all over the place
why?
everybody knows how to do them
how come he was only able to do them?
because he's strategizing for it
he's looking for it
and the strategy
is not like a thing
that he's thinking about consciously
it's in his DNA
that's the difference
because he's looking for it
subconsciously
it's in his strategy it's in
his dna that's how that's how tony is tony man and not we're not i'm not satisfied with
him just knowing it dude we work on he already hasn't mastered but we're working on it even
more and making sure that if khabib is caught in one of those things we're making it's all right
we're making sure that that thing is fucking strong.
Did you imagine if he choked out?
It must have got you excited when Poirier caught him in that guillotine.
Because Poirier had him in a guillotine.
Poirier's a black belt, too.
Yeah.
He had him in the guillotine.
Yeah.
It was a good one, too.
Pretty tight.
Anybody can lose.
You know what I mean?
Khabib is not invincible.
There's some fights where he looked, like you said, human.
Yeah. And we watch those fights, and we see where he has not quite.
Some openings.
Yeah, exactly.
The big thing, too, is Tony's cardio is just ridiculous.
Yeah.
Second to none, man.
Second to none.
His cardio is so fucking good.
It's literally ridiculous.
Yeah. Because he'll have a crazy, super high, fast-paced fight, and then you look at him, he's not Second to none, man. Second to none. His cardio is so fucking good. It's literally ridiculous.
Because he'll have a crazy, super high, fast-paced fight,
and then you look at him, he's not even breathing heavy.
His stomach's not even moving.
He loves it. And he throws elbows more than your average UFC fighter.
Oh, yeah.
Elbows are like his thing.
I think depending on what Khabib wants to do,
no matter what happens in this fight,
I see Khabib and Tony fighting a few times.
I think it's one of those classic kind of trilogy ones, man.
Who knows?
They match up so well together.
I just please gods of war, get them together in April.
I saw Tony jump and run over tires and shit.
No, no, it's old.
Oh, is that old?
Oh, thank God.
Yeah.
Man, there's this awesome Tony meme where they're showing this guy from like, it's like
in the middle of a canyon in some forest and he's walking a tightrope.
It's like some dude is walking a tightrope with a balancing pole.
You know what I mean?
It's something like when Tony trains or something.
Because he's extreme.
That's what makes him who he is.
What kind of wacky shit is he doing when you're training with him?
Dude, he's got
this... I don't even know how to explain it.
I don't even want to talk about it.
Can you give up secrets?
He's just on top of the latest
shit. Just the latest
training instincts, training
reaction. he's super
into like like shit the NBA would be doing like what I can't even explain it
you're not trying to get away are you not supposed to talk about it I don't
want to talk about it okay let's go I get it yeah after the fight yeah please
all you need to know is Darcy's elbows. Look at that fucking poster. Darces and elbows. God damn, that poster's great.
That poster's amazing,
although Tony is taller.
That's weird.
They have it like that.
Tony's actually way taller.
He's quite a bit taller.
It's weird they have
He's got super long arms, too.
That's why it's a Darcer.
Those arms, dude.
Those Darces are coming
from everywhere.
That poster's amazing.
Put that poster up again.
That poster's dope.
That poster gives you a hard time.
That's all you need.
Oh, dude.
Look at that.
That's the best fight in the UFC.
Make it so it's the normal size.
Yeah, look at that.
Fuck.
They got that one right.
They got that one perfect.
That, to me, is the greatest fight ever in the lightweight division.
100%.
The greatest fight ever.
Arguably the greatest fight ever.
Yes. Yes. Come on. That's the greatest ground ever arguably arguably greatest fight ever yes yes
come on yes that's the greatest grounding pounder right took out connor choked his ass out fucking
everybody up and then here comes tony the fucking wild enigma coming at you from a thousand different
angles that fight gives me chills man just stop and think about what tony's been able to do to
people too like think about what he did to Cowboy.
He just takes guys that look like world-class fighters,
and he makes them look like they have no business being in there with them.
Think about Pettis.
Yeah.
Josh Thompson, you know what I mean?
That was a great fight, too.
Kevin Lee.
Kevin Lee, man.
Dos Anjos.
Do you remember when he threw that spinning elbow,
and then he threw another one right after?
Nuts.
He's so creative.
That's one of his most powerful weapons is that he does not hesitate to pull the trigger.
He's never cautious.
You know, a lot of guys, you know, you hear about these guys like the goal is to take what he does in the gym out to the ring.
That's the goal.
If we could do that, he's going to be unstoppable.
Tony, from day one, anything he does in the gym, he's going to do in the ring. That's the goal. If we could do that, he's going to be unstoppable. Tony, from day one,
anything he does in the gym,
he's going to do in the ring.
No hesitation.
You know what I mean?
He doesn't ever hold back
on pulling the trigger.
It's a very exciting fight.
It's the best fight.
Two spinning elbows in a row?
Has anybody ever done that?
Nuts.
I mean, probably,
but no one at a level
that Tony's fighting at.
Yeah.
I don't think in the UFC anybody's thrown two fucking spinning fucking elbows, man, in a row.
He don't give a shit, dude.
Pico was talking about Dagestanian.
Is that how you say it?
Dagestanian guys?
And he said Greg Jackson goes, basically told me, he says, you're obsessed with training.
He said, that's all I like to do.
And Greg's like, where's that come from?
He goes,
because a few years ago,
and even before that,
I'd go train in Dagestan
and see the young kids there.
He goes,
so at night,
all I do is picture those young kids.
He's like,
they're not messing around, man.
He goes,
they're starting to make their way here,
but we haven't seen anything yet.
He goes,
so I think of them.
And that's-
Who said that?
Aaron Pico.
Okay.
Because he was out there training.
Well, that's him.
He's describing himself.
Well, he's like, he's like.
He's been doing it his whole life as well.
Yeah, he has.
But he goes, you go out there, that's all they care about.
He's like, and so that's why I try to take the same kind of approach.
He's like, people don't realize what those kids.
He's like, I'm telling you, man.
Well, we're starting to find them over here.
Yeah, he goes, they're trickling in.
He goes, but wait for it.
He goes, if you went over there, it mind crap they're all free you remember i i was uh
working with aaron maybe 10 to 10 sessions that's right you know where i fucked up i fucked up
really really bad the day i met him how so the day i met him because um in my experience uh
you know we talked about this before i've've worked for the UFC for eight years.
Backstage, I'm talking to all these fighters.
I see them come and go.
And when they go, I remember how they go.
They go because they couldn't handle the worst-case scenario.
It's either a guy that takes them down at will and they can't do anything about it
or a guy that beats them up on their feet and they can't take them down.
So that's usually when people get cut from the UFC, it's because they lost
and there's only a couple ways they lose. It's the
worst case scenario. They couldn't handle the worst case
scenario. So
you constantly see
these world class grapplers
having, you know, striking
coaches that convince them to strike. And then
they listen to the striking coaches and now they're a world
class grappler and they're striking. So
I didn't know anything about Aaron Pico.
I don't follow wrestling.
I didn't know anything about him.
Joe texts me and goes,
dude, there's this dude, Aaron Pico.
He's a good wrestler.
He wants to come train with you.
A text like that means nothing to me.
Even from Joe?
It just means nothing to me.
How many texts do I send Joe?
Someone trying to get a hold of Joe.
I send them to him just because I'm the...
Very few.
Dude, he...
He sends them to me and it's like he knows I'm not going to respond.
Exactly.
Exactly.
So anyways, so then he finally kept bugging Joe and Joe said, dude, and I said, okay,
just have him come to the gym.
Like, I don't...
I'm not looking for new MMA guys.
Yeah.
I'm not looking for that at all.
I'm just focusing on my school, my students. If you want to join in, then you can join in. I'm not looking for that at all. I'm just focusing on my school,
my students.
If you want to join in,
then you can join in.
I'm not looking for anybody.
All right, so he shows up to the gym.
I didn't know anything about him.
And he told me about his wrestling background.
And then Joe was telling me.
Then I looked up.
Before he showed up,
I did look him up.
I did look him up.
And I'm like, fuck,
this guy's an amazing wrestler.
Golden gloves.
So I didn't know shit.
I didn't know shit about him, right?
So I told him, I said, this might be the last day I see him.
Dudes come and go all the time.
I don't know how long he's going to stay.
So I told him, I said, listen, my advice to you, if I was on my deathbed, I would say
don't listen to any striking coaches trying to tell you to strike.
You stick to what you're good at.
You take dudes down, you pound the shit out of them and you work on. You stick to what you're good at. You take dudes down.
You pound the shit out of them.
And you work on passing the guard and choking them out.
Okay, don't.
And I had no idea that his whole training camp was all about staying up on his feet and striking.
So I'm telling him.
I'm telling him not to listen to any of his coaches.
You were kind of right, though.
He probably lost that one, right?
Yeah, yeah.
So once I found that out, once I started talking
to his coaches
and all this shit,
I'm like, oh my God,
what the fuck did I tell him?
No, you were kind of right,
though, Eddie.
I just assumed
that he was going to,
you know,
the game plan would always be,
generally,
90% of the time,
take the guy down,
pound the shit out of him,
pass his guard,
mount him,
take his arm
or take his neck.
That's what I assumed.
But I had no idea that that was not the plan.
So he came to me for like last resort stuff.
Like if the fight ended up on the ground against his will, he would know some shit.
He would know some groundship.
So I told him basically not to listen to his coaches that have been with him his whole life.
Yeah, he was trying to help though.
Since he was a kid.
So right away, I got off on the wrong foot.
I'm sure you understood.
But the one thing about people, I worked with them a few times, and I always looked at it
like this could be the last day I see this guy.
Happens all the time.
So I wanted to make sure I left him with someone.
If he went with someone else, I wanted to leave a little mark.
And you know what?
So we went all in
With the truck
And the twister
Heavy
He said great things about you
Well tell him I said thank you
And he did leave with that
He was
Before
The last time
You know before he ended up
You know going his own way
And all that
That's who it is
Shut the door bitch
He did
He did
Feel really comfortable
Brian counts here
Ladies and gentlemen.
He brought grocery bags.
Grocery bags.
Is it Air One?
Daddy has money.
What did you do?
Did you watch Air One first before you came here?
Do you want us to pitch in?
You need a couple bucks?
What do you have?
You have groceries.
Did you get broccoli?
Broccoli.
Do we have a bottle opener?
You're going to get one.
Yeah, we have one.
Can we get it?
Might even start with a little white wine, guys like gentlemen.
White wine is not for gentlemen.
It's for chicks.
No, no, no.
Don't say that.
Yeah, it's for chicks and guys who are married to guys.
Agree.
Or guys that want to suck their buddy's cocks.
Hey!
And it's a twist bottle, too.
You bought a cheap white wine.
Oh, God.
Is that barefoot?
It's a what?
Guys, I got a lot of cheese, all right?
Okay.
I got apples.
I don't know why.
Okay.
Apples are good.
Apples are tough to eat on a podcast.
They are a little tough to eat on a podcast.
Apples be tough to eat on a podcast, sir.
Yeah.
Well, so is everything else we eat on a podcast.
Cheese is kind of easy.
Apples.
That noise drives people nuts.
You got some hooks,
cheddar cheese,
best cheddar cheese in the world.
Well, I think.
Says who?
Says who?
Is there a cheddar cheese contest?
Sweet Red's.
Sweet Berry Wine.
Did you bring any

Whose attitude?
Mine?
I don't know.
Do you have some
sweet provolone on there, dude?
Bring me one of those bottles.
I'll open it up.
I got some Kuda 580, 5-year-old Kuda.
I don't play around.
I wish you guys...
Dude, you bought all the cheese.
We should probably get specific glasses for the wine.
Excuse me.
Do you guys have a knife?
Oh, here you go.
That's all right.
Do you guys have a knife?
Fill those up, B.
Give me one of them bottles.
I'll open it for you.
Yeah, let's do that.
Dude, you got a knife on you, huh?
I'm producing estrogen.
Talk a more custom-made knife, bro.
God, you bought all the fucking cheese.
Look at that knife.
That's a fucking knife.
That's a fucking knife, dude.
That's a fucking knife.
You know what I'd do?
I'd make you do whatever I told you to do with this fucking thing.
If I have a knife and we're in a room, what happens?
I steal it from you and I scalp your stupid head.
That's bullshit.
You steal this from me?
Yeah.
You're fucking going down, dude.
I'm doing this.
Sat, sat, sat.
I'm taking whatever hair you have left and going zzzz.
Nope.

Wally Lang, the champ?
Yeah, she's no joke.
Wally.

Dude, she is jacked.
Whaley Zentral.
Isn't it weird that the Chinese girls are doing better than Japanese girls in the UFC?
China's got incredible.
Dude, there's no Japanese girls in the UFC. Are there? Exactly. Dude, there's no Japanese girls in the UFC.
Yeah, but are there?
Exactly.
Chinese girls are blowing up, though.
There's not a lot of Japanese dudes either.
Well, Zhang Weili, the champ, she is a workhorse.
Is she Chinese?
Yeah.
Exactly.
If you see her strength and conditioning routine, it is crazy, man.
Have you seen it on YouTube?
Oh, my God.
Jamie, see if you can find Zhang Weili's strength and conditioning routine.
She's a very tough young fella.
No, she's a girl, bro.
You son of a bitch.
I was just going to have her, Brendan.
Son of a bitch.
I never get Brendan.
That's not right.
I'm just kidding.
Why are you doing that?
I'm joking.
Here's a knife.
She's very tough.
She's so fucking jacked.
Weili?
Yeah. What are you saying? You need to get the look, like the Mexican supplement look. She's so fucking jacked. Whaley?
Yeah.
What are you saying?
You get the look, like the Mexican supplement look.
I'm saying you're crazy if you don't think Golden Snitch, our boy, Jeff, is sniffing around a little bit.
Just like, all right.
He's just going, okay. I think it's normal to look like that.
Do you remember when, well, if you watch her training, you realize where it's coming from watch her training man she's amazing she's a fucking beast she's amazing super

It's a fucking ferocious routine
Do you ever think that people just put this on video
And they never do it ever again
100%
These motherfuckers are watching TV

Well, whatever she's doing is working.
We can clown all we want.
She's so bad.

Probably like $20,000
Yeah
Just some ridiculous number
Did he win?

Yeah, I won
Because it's MMA bets, right?
I can get Brendan going If I do something like this, if I go.
If I just say something like, I don't want to see Jon Jones fight Stipe, because Stipe's
going to knock him out.
If I do that to Brendan, he gets so riled.
Especially when he's confident about it, it drives me nuts.
And then everyone's like, he does it on purpose, and the fans don't realize it.
They're like, you're mean to Brian.
I'm like, oh like You guys don't understand
What he's doing
You have no idea
What he's doing
I know he loves style matters
So I have to take
I have to take you out
Looks like they're
Stopping this fight

The only time you see the cat get fucked up, swear alert in three, two, one.
He gets a python and puts a kitten in the room with the python.
They got to stop this fight.
She's getting hurt.
She is.
Carolina is tough, man.
Carolina Kivakovich is a tough lady.
She's a tough lady.
Shout out to the polls.
She got KO'd by Jessica Andrade, though.
Jessica Andrade flatlined her.
Dude, I'm telling you, these Chinese chicks are blowing up, dude.
They are blowing up, but I'm telling you, this girl got a gift decision over Angie.
Are you watching what's going on right now?
Yeah, Angie had that girl in a locked up triangle.
It was really funny because people got really mad at me because Angelo was in front of me
and I'm like,
pull the head,
pull the head.
I'm doing commentary
and I'm telling her
how to win.
I love that though.
She's got it locked up.
I love that though.
She's just got to
pull the head.
She's got it locked in.
She's got to pull the head.
Pull the head.
I'm like,
yeah,
and people are like,
you fucking piece of shit.
They're going to stop it.
She keeps holding her eye.
That means she wants out.
Well,
I think she got poked.
I can't see.
I think she got poked earlier in the fight.
Manchego, anyone?
Is that what it's called?
Manchego?
12-month age.
How do you know what to buy?
He knows his shit, man.
How do you know about cheese?
I'm an aristocrat.
I grew up.
I'm a foodie because of Brian now because we used to go on the road together.
He wouldn't let me eat at any chains.
He'd take me to all these special places.
Now I'm the exact same way.
It's so weird. Get on the carnivore diet i know i need to i fucking need to what's that i mostly just eat meat now i had four donuts yesterday i felt like uh last night i cheated
i i was i cooked for my kid and uh she wanted pasta and steak so i cooked steak for us and
then pasta and there was a little bit of pasta left over.
I'm like, let me just eat some of it.
How much?
A small bowl.
I felt like shit.
Don't be too hard on yourself.
I felt like shit right after I ate it.
I've been eating almost only meat and eggs over the last few months.
Joe Rogan, the extremist.
You feel good?
Dude, I feel amazing.
I need to do something.
I feel amazing.
What's amazing feel like?
You wake up in the morning, you're like good question legit question that's a very good question great
question what's amazing my energy levels are like the same like you just you never fucking out no
i'm a little aggressive but do you not need a nap no no naps no nothing dude when i eat pasta or
bread everything crashes.
I just think my system, I've heard people say, too, when you get older, that your body just doesn't want to eat that stuff anymore.
It's true.
I don't understand how that's possible.
Is it possible that when we were young, we just weren't aware of our bodies?
I don't know.
I feel like I need less food or I'm more sensitive to food now.
I feel the exact opposite, you guys.
I feel like my body wants more donuts My body wants donuts
Believe me, that's my brain
My brain wants donuts
Yeah, so bad
Dude, I take my kids to this donut shop on the way to school sometimes
What's it called?
I don't want to tell anybody
Voodoo Donuts?
It's a good donut shop
Is it a good one?
It's a local place
Okay
But when we go there, it's so hard for me to say no to the donuts.
But when I say yes, I always feel like a piece of shit.
And you're like, it wasn't even that good.
Right, right, right.
It wasn't even that good.
And then the rest of the day, you're like, ugh.
But Voodoo Donuts, damn.
Oh, they're good, dude.
Oh, shit.
They're good, man.
The crazy thing about Voodoo Donuts, they got children's coffins in the shop.
I don't know what the purpose is,
but that's pretty fucking weird.
That's some Illuminati shit, bro.
You should look into that.
Dude, they got children's coffins
at Voodoo Donuts.
She is so tough.
Carolina is so tough.
I'd never look into shit like that.
That's a different body.
I'm the Asian young lady,
the Chinese young lady.
Different body.
What do you mean?
I don't know how to say her name.
She's very trapped out.
Trapped out with... The Asian lady? Yeah. Different body. What do you mean? I don't know how to say her name. She's very trapped out.
Trapped out with... The Asian lady?
Yeah.
Yeah, she just has some traps on her shoulders.
She just looks like she's fit.
Something's in her eye.
She looks like a gal that goes to CrossFit.
Yeah, Carolina's having a hard time with that right eye.
She's protecting it, but it's a real struggle.
I just want to get to the main event.
She needs a crescent kick right to that thing.
Boom.
Crescent kick.
Hell yeah.
Don't act like.
The only person I ever saw throwing a crescent kick in the MMA was Anderson.
Jackie Chan?
Anderson threw a crescent kick at somebody once.
I don't think he ever did.
He did.
I think that was a dream of yours.
He threw an inside crescent kick.
He went like that?
This way.
Inside is this way.
Oh, no, no.
No.
But what about hitting with the inside of your foot
like Jackie Chan?
Oh, yeah.
No, he hit with the outside.
Is this the last round?
I think that's how you see
because the outside axe kick,
maybe I'm confusing him
because axe kick,
the outside goes like this
straight down
and inside goes like this.
Keep scoring with that jab.
It's hard for these people that realize that title contention is kind of out for them,
and then they just keep fighting.
Because someone says, hey, do you want to make 50 grand?
It's a bummer.
Yeah, I need 50 grand.
But how else are you going to make 50 grand?
Exactly.
How else are you going to make 50 grand?
But here's the thing about the UFC that people always talk about.
Like, oh, fighters make so much more well they're not really see at
the top of the heap fighters make more but it's only like Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao
when you look at the top levels of boxing versus the top levels of MMA
MMA fighters make a lot of fucking money but then when you look at the undercard
the top uh the the top guys make the big money.
But the undercard in boxing is terrible.
It's dog shit.
They don't pay anything.
They pay nothing.
All the money goes to guys like Canelo.
All the money goes to the Earl Spence Juniors,
the Terrence Crawfords.
When it gets down to the actual undercard fighters,
they make fucking chump change.
And you're saying the UFC,
they pay their fighters better on average? The undercard guys make they make fucking chump change. And you're saying the UFC, they pay their fighters better on average? They make more.
The undercard guys make more in the UFC
than they do on boxing matches.
God, she looks terrible.
She's about to do that three-piece soda thing
right there. Three-piece in a soda?
You see that? She was sitting back
like Maz Vidal.
Three-piece in a soda is when he boxed up Leon Edwards
in the backstage. I couldn't think of George Masvidal's name.
You need those crackers on here?
I'm not going to chew them.
You're going to suck on them?
What do you think about Masvidal versus Usman?
I love it.
What do you think?
I love it.
Well, I just love the fact that Masvidal is going to fight for the title.
Has Masvidal ever been on your podcast?
Yes.
He has.
He's great.
I miss that shit.
Yeah, he's great.
He's great.
I love him.
I love that dude. He's been to my gym a couple times great I miss that shit yeah he's great he's great I love him I love that dude
he's been in my gym
a couple times
I love that guy
I told him
I said hey dude
I got a move
called three piece
in a soda
after you
and he goes
dude I gotta know it
show it to me
I gotta know it
if someone asks me
I have to know it
it's just a combo
it's a pass
it's a three piece
and the soda's the head
it's the chest pass
where
like I'm on top one push the legs is the head it's a the chest pass okay got like i'm on top one push push the
legs to the side two grab the hips three grab the trap and the soda is the head and the chin
so that's the three piece in the soda hey b this is a wet cheese pass i love it it's wet though
what is a wet cheese what does that mean like a brie it's a soft milky open that up daddy
it's a beautiful cheese daddy that's a cheese? It's like a brie It's a soft milky cheese Open that up daddy It's a beautiful cheese
Open that up cheese daddy
Are you in a cheese now?
Has he got you in a cheese?
Oh yeah
You know what was really
In a weird cheese?
Bourdain
He would be in the stuff
That stunk
Like stinky cheese?
I don't like that
Stunk man
Limburgers and those
We used to add
Stinky cheese to stuff
When we did Fear Factor
To make it smell worse
To make people more disgusted. We would go to this
very... Oh, look at this rolling.
No, too far. She's too high up.
She's too high up.
She's not out of the woods yet.
Not totally, but I'm not buying it.
The Formagier. Oh, look at that.
Look at that.
She's deep. Look at that. Oh, shit.
That is tight. Oh, shit.
Oh, shit. You're tight. Oh, shit.
You're crazy.
You think this Chinese girl's tapping.
Oh, I don't know about that.
She just turned over that leg.
She's in trouble.
That girl's in real fucking trouble.
Yeah, but she's in, so what?
She's in real fucking trouble.
See, that's an example of people always say, oh, leg locks are dangerous in MMA.
Some are.
Yes, some are.
But some aren't.
Some can actually save you in MMA. Some leg lock positions, if you're But some aren't. Some can actually save you in MMA.
Some leg lock positions, if you're fucked up and you're-
Oh, shit.
Look at that.
She can reach her face here.
No.
So when you reap, if you're reaping, you're safe.
Bro, she's tearing this girl's knee apart.
What's she to do here?
She's elbowing the fuck out of her thigh.
Well, that ain't working.
She's going after her left leg.
Her left leg's in danger. Carolina is not. She's out. She doesn't have it totally her thigh. That ain't working, though. She's going after her left leg. Her left leg's in danger.
Carolina is not.
She's out.
She doesn't have it totally locked in.
She's going to sit up.
No, she ain't out.
She ain't out yet.
She's still got the reap.
She ain't out, man.
She's not out.
She's not out.
She's going to pass the health card.
Look at her left knee.
Her left knee's deep.
Her left knee's in big trouble.
Look at that.
I mean, it's not guaranteed that she's going to tap her, but she's still in danger.
In real danger.
Especially given how high the shin is.
She can transition here.
She can't do shit.
Now she's doing better.
She can't do shit until she gets that left leg out.
She's going to slice that leg through.
She's doing better.
Not yet.
You've got to realize that Carolina is in the third round.
She's been getting beat up.
She's going to get her again.
She's going to push that reep.
She's going to push her right leg,
push that reap.
Look at that.
Again, she's in danger again.
Interesting.
Her foot is white as shit.
See it?
You guys see it?
She's Polish.
It's as white as it gets.
That's a mummy foot right there.
Oh, look.
She's switching to a guillotine.
That's nice.
Oh, my God.
If she gets this,
I'm going to freak out.
With the reap.
Oh, my God. Wow, that's crazy. If she wins this, I'm going to freak out. With the Reap. Oh, my God.
Wow, that's crazy.
If she wins this, I'm going to lose my fucking mind.
Why?
Because I just don't.
Okay, the Reap's out now.
Now the Reap's out.
She's just got it across.
Look at her right foot.
She got in halfway land where she was kind of half in on the Reap and half in on the guillotine.
That's the whitest foot I've ever seen.
Look at that foot, dude. That foot's dying. I'm talking about the walking dead foot. It's the walking dead foot. It's the oneest foot I've ever seen I just want Look at that foot dude
That foot's dying
I'm talking about the walking dead foot
It's the walking dead foot
It's the walking dead foot
It's the walking dead foot
It's dying on the vine
There's no blood
There's no blood on her foot
Jesus Christ
Her right foot is dead
Where is this being fought by the way?
This is in New Zealand
If she underhooked
The girl's left leg
If she underhooked
With the rest That's, that's nothing.
That's nothing.
It's nothing for now.
She has nothing.
It's nothing for now.
If she under, with the right, see her right arm, if she underhooks that left ankle, if
she under, and then takes that leg to the other side and takes her left leg and puts
it on her other side, on her left hip, that's a honey hole right there.
That's a whole different game.
She just can't reach that foot, her left foot.
She can't reach it.
If she could underhook that left ankle and pass it to the other side of her body, roof it over right there, boom.
She's not thinking about it.
She's just thinking about that heel hook.
She should take it over to the inside.
Look, is she going to do it?
She's trying for that heel again.
She's going back to the heel.
Oh, now she's on top.
She used the leg lock to get on top.
Look at that.
She used the leg lock To get on top Look at that She used the leg lock To get on top
That's a part of the game
That we
That we haven't really seen
That much
That's what I always say
But now look
She's on top now right
Full guard
She had a leg lock
And now she's on top
That's a switch
Too late though
It's too late
But it's a
Legit transition
It's interesting
How many different layers
There are to jujitsu
on the ground.
The scrambles on the ground.
There's so many layers
and sometimes you only see people,
it's like people having a conversation
when they have a real limited vocabulary
versus someone who's very eloquent
who knows all the different words
and all the different ways to use them.
The game keeps growing.
It keeps growing.
I pronounce it I pronounce
it look at that boom did you see her face she was angry dangerous is the main event next for
God's sakes no man what is the next fight young Jamie what do we got here? Put it up on the wall. I just want the main event. We got at least another fight.
I'm excited.
What do we got here, Jamie?
Put it up on the wall.
It's 530.
We're halfway through the show.
What do we got?
Jim Crute.
Jim Crute.
How do you say his name?
He's a bruiser.
Crute.
Are you guys excited about this Wilder?
Oh, my God.
I can't wait.
Beyond excited.
We talked about it for two hours.
Hey.
You weren't here. Are you not excited about it? I'm very excited about it. I can't wait. We talked about it for two hours. Hey! You weren't here.
Are you not excited about it?
I'm very excited about it.
I can't wait.
You want to bet on that, too?
Do you need to borrow more money?
I'm going to say this.
I'm going to say this.
Uh-oh, what do you got?
With Joe's money, I'm going to bet $1,000.
Who are you betting on?
I think Deontay is going to win because I think he's just got too much power.
And if you make one mistake, you're in big trouble.
You sound like an expert.
Here is a better fighter, better boxer.
Stephen A. Smith ain't got shit on you, bro.
It sounds like you've been listening to the podcast while you were on the freeway over here.
Were you listening to the podcast?
I don't know what you're talking about.
Just regurgitate stuff.
Seriously, though.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Were you listening to the stream?
No, no, no. But Tyson decided to I have no idea what you're talking about. Were you listening to the stream?
No, no.
But Tyson decided to come in heavier.
Don't change the subject.
Well, he's fat.
That's why he kept his shirt on. He's out of shape.
Yeah.
Teddy Atlas was talking about it.
He was saying there's only one time you keep your shirt on in the way, and that's when
you're fat.
100%.
Poor girl.
I can relate to that.
Kevin is such a tough...
Teddy Atlas.
Not Teddy Atlas, but we were talking about it before you got here.
There's rumors that Tyson Fury
has ankle injuries and that he's injured
before this fight, like pretty significantly.
He couldn't do road work. That's why he's heavier.
Yeah, and his whole move is movement.
That's what separates him from the rest of the pack
is movement. Six foot nine
and movement and footwork.
You take out that movement? What do you got?
You want to do a blow for blow against Wilder?
Good luck.
That's why daddy has a lot of money.
Blow for blow against the biggest puncher the world has ever seen.
Blow for blow sounds like a cocaine battle, right?
Blow for blow, dude.
Let's see who's heart stops first.
Get the defibrillator.
Do, do, do, do.
Do, do, do, do, do, do.
It's like quarters for coke.
Is that the co-main?
Dude, China's stepping up.
China's no joke.
Jim Crude's the co-main, yeah.
Dude, with a billion people plus.
He's got Mary tattooed on his ribs.
A billion people.
What do you fucking think is going to happen with this goddamn coronavirus?
Are you worried about this shit?
I thought I had it last week in Ontario.
Oh, dude.
I was so scared.
First of all, it's not fatal in most cases.
Yes.
In fact, most cases it's very mild.
No, that's not true.
How many people have died from the flu?
How many people have died from the flu in just America?
More than that.
When?
Like 4,000, right?
When?
A thousand.
Like the history of mankind?
No, no, no.
Every year.
Okay, every year.
A thousand, a thousand.
But the coronavirus is actually more deadly than the flu.
That's what they're telling you.
You've got to remember, where are you getting
your information from?
CNN.
Only CNN. That's all I trust.
You're the best. CNN's the best.
Don Lemon? Are you kidding me?
Don Lemon is the greatest
newscaster of
all time.
He's right up there with Michael Williams.
Oh my God, that guy is hysterical.
Wait, so we're not worried about coronavirus?
It's hard to believe
anything. I don't know what's going on.
I mean, there's crazy different theories.
Give me a few, Eddie.
Okay, did you know that
this guy right there, Stylebender,
he's going to cost me a thousand bucks.
He's such a badass. Look at him.
He's the best.
I love him.
Yoel Romero.
See you soon, boy.
Yoel Romero is going to-
Did you see Dana at the Trump rally?
Yes.
Hell yeah.
It's his boy.
Hell yeah.
Look, Dana White is a loyal guy.
He's loyal.
He's loyal to good people that are good to him, right?
Yes.
If you're loyal to him, he's loyal to you. He wouldn good to him yes if you're loyal to him he's loyal
to you wouldn't be loyal to a shit bag no no well you know his relationship with donald trump is
you know all business they're like friends right friends and they've been friends for 20 years
yeah jesus he's rough uh well so back to your thing though the coronavirus give me some do you
know you guys like maybe like two weeks ago there was a guy harvard professor that got uh his name is uh george church dr george church okay he got busted
for taking uh money from china oh that's right he was involved in like virus yeah and bio weapons
and all that shit right you know the guy yeah in, they only have one bio lab, like level four.
It's in Wuhan.
Yeah, in Wuhan.
And he died, right?
It's in Wuhan.
So no, no, no.
This professor gets busted for taking all this money from China.
You know who else was giving him millions and millions of dollars?
Who?
Jeffrey Epstein.
Really?
Hell yeah.
He was giving who?
The professor?
Dr. George Church.
How much was he giving him?
Their buddy's tight.
Millions.
That guy was ball time, bro.
Jeffrey Epstein was giving
a lot of people money.
Well, check this out.
Jeffrey Epstein was black,
his job was to blackmail
politicians, celebrities,
and scientists.
How weird.
Like, why would you blackmail,
why would he blackmail
a politician, for instance? Why would you do that? Why would he blackmail a politician for instance?
Why would you do that? And because you want certain things
Why would you blackmail a celebrity?
Cuz you want them to weigh in on something you want
Why would you blackmail a celebrity because they have sway right if they can influence exactly
Why would you blackmail scientists? Do you want to fuck them. You want information.
No, you want to fuck them, right?
Or you want them to create some sort of hat.
Okay, wait, let's back up.
We're blackmailing politicians.
Why?
Look at what Jamie has up here.
No link between Harvard scientist Charles Lieber and the coronavirus.
That means there's a link.
That just means there's a link.
Lieber, a nanoscientist, was charged for lying about his participation in a Chinese recruitment program
and his affiliation with a Chinese university.
He is not accused of being a spy.
That's not the guy I'm talking about.
I'm talking about Dr. George Church.
I know.
I looked him up.
I didn't see him.
Wrong guy, Jamie.
He didn't get arrested.
Jesus, Jamie.
Wrong guy, Jamie.
Charles Lieber is a different guy.
That's a different guy.
George Church didn't get arrested.
No, he didn't get arrested No he didn't get arrested
He didn't get arrested
But he's
He's in trouble
That's coronavirus
That's what it sounds like
You know what the crazy thing is
Let me do it
Dude you know what the crazy thing is
Is
Okay I'll shut up
That means shut the fuck up I'll shut the fuck up i think so scared shut the fuck up
i got a lot more information you're telling me is this about the coronavirus
no it's about the fucking modelo virus oh so you do you think that humans
what do you think we're talking about it's about the
no we're talking about? It's about the AIDS virus. No, we're talking about super AIDS.
The new AIDS, bro.
Coronavirus.
That's old school.
Are you saying it was created by a human?
Do you know that a human...
It makes me want to shut the fuck up when I hear that.
That thing's scary.
That makes me want to talk about britney spears new album no
i'm creating here because you're about to drop some knowledge i don't know let's change the
subject you don't you don't think scientists made up the coronavirus you don't think chinese
i think viruses can sometimes spring up on their own yep i don't know that's true
the only bio lab that deals with that in China is in Wuhan. That is true.
That's the only one.
And there are legitimate scientists that are speculating that this might have been something that was accidentally released from the lab.
And I'll say this.
They don't contain those things very well, particularly when you're dealing with a country like China.
It doesn't have the same sort of standards that like when you have in Galveston at the CDC center where they have things like Ebola and all these different things in the containment. They have
incredibly strict procedures that they
use to handle that stuff. A little loosey-goosey.
Didn't the main guy who was dealing with coronavirus,
the Chinese guy, he died from
the coronavirus. The guy who was blowing the whistle
on the coronavirus and then he
was censored by the Chinese government did die
from the virus.
They probably, yeah. Oh, he died of the virus.
Meanwhile, he's hanging in a fucking closet
oh yeah no no the coronavirus got him how's that look at this they're advertising wilder and fury
even on the fucking ufc well yes because he comes after but it's not is it on espn plus
because i didn't see it on espn pm plus regular pay-per-view shit fox and espn co lukewarm
but but you don't you can't get it off espn plus can you no espn's pay-per-view shit. Fox and ESPN co-hosting it or something. But you can't get it
off ESPN Plus,
can you?
No.
ESPN's pay-per-view,
I believe.
But I tried.
I looked at it on ESPN Plus.
I had to order it
on DirecTV.
That's what I did.
I just over-reacted
dish pay-per-view.
I recorded that shit
on two different TVs.
Oh, I'm done with cheese.
I'm so scared
this all goes down.
I get so scared
I'm going to miss it.
Which one's this?
That's a naked goat.
I'm going to shit my pants,
Brian.
A naked goat?
What does that mean? Yeah, I'm going to try some naked goat. I like your attitude, a naked goat. I'm going to shit my pants, Brian. A naked goat? Geez, what does that mean?
Yeah, I'm going to try some naked goat.
I like your attitude, young man.
I always think we should get a big, nice pizza.
I'll eat raw oysters.
Pizza?
I always think we should always get a nice, big cheese pizza here.
How do we not have pizza?
Eddie, you want to?
We never have.
We can't?
There should be a pizza right here.
Because we've got to get someone to deliver it.
Man, some fucking weirdo comes here and they're like, hey, man, what's with the werewolf?
No, no, no.
You can't meet him outside., no. Meet him outside.
Meet him outside.
Have one of the security guys do it?
Yeah.
No.
One of those badasses do it.
Have him come out with an AR.
Those guys know their way around AR.
Yeah, come out with ski masks and fucking, what are those scarves around their neck they wear in Afghanistan?
It's pronounced Afghanistan.
Oh, okay.
I don't care.
Keep talking.
There's a lot of good Afghanistan. Oh, okay. I don't care. Keep talking. Oh, yeah.
There's a lot of good fights coming up, man.
Rosenstreich.
Rosenstreich and Francis.
That's, to me, whoo!
That is guns away.
Bombs over Baghdad.
Whoo!
Boom!
Whoo!
Who knows what?
That's Michael?
No, no, a different guy.
Sorry.
What's up with that name?
Joanne Ginger Jicks
is gonna block that dude
it's like
fuck him
trying to take my
fucking
shine
he's from Poland right
how do you say that name
Olyngia
I forget
none of you guys
can say it
I used to do it
I don't even attempt anymore
I've called his fights before too
I don't even attempt
I just call them by their first name
or their nicknames
can you imagine if
Joanna married that guy?
Well, they started calling her Joanna Champion.
I know, but it was so tough.
And then she had to dash in between the names.
She goes, I'm going to use both names.
Can you imagine?
Joanna marries this guy, and she wants to keep her last name, but dash his last name.
Hyphen.
Dude.
Bro, let me be straight.
If your wife did not want to take your last name and she wanted to hyphenate, I would be like, what the fuck are you talking about?
This ain't going to work out.
What are you talking about?
What are you doing?
You want a yin-yang check.
You want to get married and you don't even want to take my name?
No, we're out.
So the whole thing about getting married is I'm taking a risk that I might lose everything.
At least half, yeah.
At least half.
But more than half.
It's really two-thirds because you've got to pay for
legal fees. And the rest of your life. And then also you've got to
pay for the emotional pain of getting
Oh, sorry, Brian.
Your life breaking up.
Have some whiskey.
I get along with my ex really well, though. You do, though.
You're in a rare situation. Your ex is
very cool and you guys get along very well.
So you're in a great spot, then. You got through the
fucking fire. You walked through the fire.
Because of her.
But Rogan.
She's been awesome.
Joe, what do we say?
This isn't a knock on Amanda, but since Brian separated, he's never been happier.
He's never been funnier.
Never been funnier.
He's never been a better worker.
I've said it to him.
He shows up on time.
I said it to you independently that he doesn't know about, but I said it to him.
He's never been funnier.
Never been funnier.
The best.
He's on fire now.
You and I don't hate each other anymore.
He's going to get married and get another divorce.
It'd be even better.
He's getting better.
He has writer's block.
He goes, I get it.
Let me marry some bitch.
Knock her up.
He's killing it, man.
Revive my career.
Now that he's this free bird, he's killing it.

If you have a hard time selling out, I'll post it on my Instagram.
Thank you.
And then we've got 420.

Tinfoil hat show with Sam Tripoli.
March 19th at the Ice House.
We haven't been there in like a year and a half.
And then April 11th at, shit, Huntington Beach at the Rec Room.
You and Tripoli's a good show.
I love Tripoli.
I love Tripoli.
Tripoli's one of my favorite people.
He's a fucking monster.
He's one guy I never say no to.
I don't do anybody's,
all those promoters
that used to come to the store,
I don't do any of those
fuck shows anymore.
But I do Sam's show.
Sam's the best.
Sam's the,
he's my boy.
You know,
just like anybody.
I love him.
Just like anybody, man.
If you're in front of a crowd
that loves you
and it's packed,
it brings out the best in you, right?
Your best performances
are in front of packed houses
and they're screaming.
But a lot of comedians never get to that point. So it's like a catch-22. You never see the best than you, right? Your best performances are in front of packed houses and they're screaming. But a lot of comedians
never get to that point.
So it's like a catch-22.
You never see the best of them.
And Sam Tripoli,
it took a while for him
to get to that point.
But now he's at that point.
Dude, I am a witness.
I watch him smash high level.
Oh, dude.
High level smashing.
I've been performing with him forever.
I would watch that guy.
I'd have the best set of my life.
He'd come up and follow me and do 50 minutes crush.
Afghanistan, when we went there for the USO tour, he would be the one, because all of
us were too afraid to open, because you didn't know.
You'd be like shitty Mike and stuff.
Why did you do that?
Afghanistan?
2007.
I spent two weeks there.
And Sam, me, Dov Davidoff, and Steve Byrne went there, and Sam would open.
Not because he was an opener at all, because he's funny.
He's all of us.
But he was so good at getting the crowd going and his improv.
He was just, I called him, he's the monster.
He's a fucking monster.
He's the best.
He's incredible.
He also just had kids.
He just had twins.
Oh, here comes the baby jokes.
Here comes the baby jokes.
He's going to be even funnier.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. So what is the co-main? Oh here comes the baby jokes Here comes the baby jokes Oh yeah
So what is the co-main?
Is this the co-main?
This is the co-main
Oh okay
We got that knee brace on
Yeah I don't like that
I see a dude with a knee brace
Unless it's Sakuraba
It could be a trick
It could be his other knee that's hurt
You know what I mean?
Damn this dude on the right That's what I would do If my right knee was hurt I'd have a brace be his other knee That's hurt You know what I mean This dude on the right
That's what I would do
If my right knee was hurt
I'd have a brace
On my left knee
That's hilarious
Dude on the right
The ref is a
I think it's a pole
Why do you say that
Speaking of poles
Did you guys see
That stripper fall
From that pole
Oh my god
Dude
And she kept
Fucking
She kept twerking
She kept twerking Soldier She kept twerking.
Soldier.
She's a hottie too.
Soldier.
She's probably seen stars and Tweety Brothers.
Dude, I DJ'd at a strip club for 10 years and the strip pole at my club was probably
one fourth of that height.
That was fucking 100 feet.
Why would they do that?
Why would they do that?
What the fuck were they?
Yeah, what are you doing?
Because they don't have any regard for the safety of the gals that work there.
How dare you?
That's some dangerous shit.
Plus, they have a high ceiling and they wanted a pole.
People just don't respect the work.
That pole shit.
Dude, come on.
There's art to pole dancing.
Have you ever gotten in a pole?
That's some real shit.
I don't want to talk about it.
He was Johnny Legend.
Remember we trained at legends
and there was
the pole dancing
class
whoa
what a catch
I think Groot
was a wrestler
jiu jitsu
you still got it
reflex is still there
I went to
when we used to
train at legends
rather
there was that
pole dancing class
Chris Riley's girl
used to teach
right next to it
for the longest time
those girls are talented
there was two
Planet HQ
in the same building
as a pole dancing school
we did that for years.
We did that forever.
Dude, I'd be teaching a class, and then you'd hear some nine-inch nails and shit in the
background.
You're closer or something.
That Legends that we had on the east side was a sketchy neighborhood, but a great spot.
Oh, so big.
So giant.
Oh, this kid's amazing.
Good wrestling.
That's the spot where we filmed me and GSP working out together.
That was the spot where Michael Jai White sidekicked the bag and sent it flying and snapped the chain.
Broke it off the ceiling.
Michael Jai White is legit as fuck.
He's a big, strong dude.
He's legit as fuck.
We were talking about sidekicks, and Michael Jai White, who's a kyokushin guy he he did a hopping sidekick on
this bag and fucking sent it flying it snapped the chain yeah that was the chain had problems
this was a no it did it did but it was it didn't look it's not normal that someone throws a kick
on a bag and the chain breaks the chain had probably it was the chain was chris had told
us that the chain was falling apart it It had popped before. But it was the perfect explanation.
It was the perfect demonstration of his technique.
It was like a scene in a movie.
Well, the scene was me blowing you up for 20 minutes on how amazing your sidekick is
and how you fold bags and this and that and all these stories about your sidekick.
And he goes, oh, really?
And then he looks at the bag and he throws a sidekick and he breaks it off the ceiling i'm like there goes my story
he looks like this he's huge great guy too he's a great guy he's big though right he's a
smart guy he's a really smart guy dude this is uh michael john White is like, out of all the guys who have never fought in MMA or fought professionally,
his technique is as legit as you're ever going to see.
As legit as anybody.
Like his wheel kicks, roundhouse kicks, his side kicks, everything's perfect form.
I think where he got in trouble is he did that video trying to give Kimbo and some other guys advice on fighting.
I think
the way he was explaining that Kimbo didn't
want to listen, some people thought was disrespectful
particularly because Kimbo
was dead.
I just think
look at this. Kimura, Kimura, Kimura.
It's over. It's a wrap.
It's over.
It's over.
That's it. That fight, he. It's a wrap. Is he covering the head? It's over. The head? It's over. Oh, man. That's it.
That fight, he didn't let that dude breathe.
No.
Damn, he's good.
He's rough.
His grappling was phenomenal.
Good wrestling.
I'm going to take a leak real quick.
Go ahead.
What's his pedigree?
That's Mike Bernardo.
Mike Bernardo, a former big-time kickboxer.
Go with the fucked-up nose in his corner.
So where is he from
he's from Poland
oh okay
damn
he tore him up
what were we gonna say
about Michael J though
no the other guy's from Poland
no that guy's from Poland
I thought
Crute's from Poland as well
is he
no Crute's American
I think he's American
oh no he's New Zealand
I'm sorry
he's from New Zealand
my bad
sorry Crute
he's from New Zealand
that's why he came out
like a fucking banshee
yeah oh that makes sense boom no He's from New Zealand. My bad. Sorry, Groot. He's from New Zealand. That's why he came out like a fucking banshee.
Yeah.
Oh, that makes sense.
Boom.
No.
He landed.
You don't see a lot of those.
Strong, dude.
When you step over with that left leg, oh my God. It's so hard to get out of that.
All of Frank Mir, Noguera, remember that?
Oh, crap.
I'll never forget.
How do you avoid him stepping over your head like that?
You just tap.
Oh, dude.
You don't. Just tap. Once you're in that position, it's kind of late. How do you avoid him stepping over your head like that? You just tap. Oh, dude. You don't.
Just tap.
Once you're in that position, it's kind of late.
You don't let him get that.
Don't let him isolate your arm, for God's sake.
Unless you're Hicks and Gracie.
That's not good, dude.
No.
Yeah, he's going to be sore in the morning.
Well, the problem is it's tearing shit inside of his shoulder that might never be the same again.
You know what?
I told you when I got an MRI on my shoulder, I was having some problems, and they said,
your shoulder's been dislocated.
And I'm like, I don't know. And they go, you don't your shoulder's been dislocated. And I'm like, I don't know.
And they go, you don't know that your shoulder was dislocated?
I'm like, I don't know.
I'm like, how did your shoulder get dislocated?
Has your shoulder ever been in a bad position?
I started laughing.
And I was like, yeah, like fucking 20 times a week.
Like, what are you talking about?
Like, if someone gets you in a camorra and you don't tap,
your shoulder's in a bad position all the time like all the shit that goes on there's like little pieces of stuff probably
floating around inside my shoulder it's the same guy did warrior gavin o'connor i think this is his
good so i should pass on this movie too you didn't like warrior i thought you loved it
i thought you loved it well the problem was the fact they fought two days in a row, which is never going to happen in the history of the world.
They didn't have to do that.
That movie, this is the problem with fucking movie producers.
What movie?
They do movie.
Warrior?
Warrior.
There's some great scenes in Warrior.
There's some great scenes in Warrior, but they decided to get fucky with it.
And when they get fucky, it was when they make things happen that would never happen,
like a guy fighting hardcore cage fights two days in a row.
You don't do that.
The next day, you're a wreck on a railroad track.
You barely walk.
That's also why you hate Foxcatcher, too, right?
Well, Foxcatcher, that's even worse.
I love that movie.
Because with Foxcatcher, they changed a real story.
They fucked with a real story. It's not a documentary, bro. Take it easy. Well, they changed a real story. They fucked with a real story.
It's not a documentary, bro.
Take it easy.
Well, here's a big part.
They made Mark Schultz fight a Russian guy in the UFC.
He fought Big Daddy Goodrich.
It's MMA history.
I mean, it's a big part of MMA history.
It's well documented.
It's a show.
They also made him gay.
Like, you know, kind of.
They insinuated
For sure
That he was kind of gay
I didn't see that
In the movie?
Yeah
His Instagram would
They insinuated
Some stuff in the movie
That was not good
What are you saying?
No
Don't say it
No I'm not
I'm just saying
Instagram is
Now why did you guys
Talk about Warrior?
How did you guys
Get into movies?
Whose Instagram is real good?
Listen, let's go.
A movie with what?
I'm just an American speaking.
How did we get on the Warrior?
Pete Buttigieg is a real mayor, and he's a good guy, and you should shut the fuck up.
No, I know.
I know.
I'm just saying, as well as me, I'm talking as an American.
Oh, Ben Affleck, there was a commercial for his movie.
He's a basketball coach.
And Brian was saying, this is by the guy who directed Warrior. And I said, so I should avoid this movie, too.
And then Brian was like, what the fuck?
You liked Warrior.
I go, except for the fuckery.
Like when they made them fight two days in a row.
That was an MMA movie?
I didn't see that.
Yeah.
But people fight two times in the same night.
That's different.
That's different.
Two days in a row is impossible.
You would be so busted up.
Your face would be swollen up like the Elephone Man.
Yeah.
Elephone Man. Elephone Man?
Hoist fought four guys in one night.
Yeah, one night.
In one night, you can do it.
Two days is different.
You don't think?
Yeah, I don't even think they should do it in one night.
Who's that guy?
I don't know.
He must have fought earlier.
He's all cut up.
He looks like a rugby superstar.
Well, he's all busted up.
No, he's too skinny.
He has dreads.
He probably fought earlier in the card.
He's probably a flanker.
Oh, so this gentleman's from New Zealand, too.
Mark Bernardo is a beast.
That dude is right.
He's a serious kickboxer.
I've watched his videos, Bernardo.
Serious kickboxer.
Back in the legit K-1 days.
Looks like he put a hurtin' on you anyway.
Oh, for sure.
Jesus.
That Kimura, man.
Once a dude steps over your head, Eddie, what the fuck can he do here?
He's got to use his right arm.
See how he's attacking his left arm?
It's too late.
Right there, it's too late.
But he needed to use his free arm to go in between both arms and hook.
And that stops the Kimura.
But it's too late.
In between both arms?
What do you mean?
So he's getting...
So this arm's getting Kimura'd, right?
Yeah.
So this one is your free arm.
You got to get it in between his arms
and hook this arm just like that,
and you're good.
Okay.
I mean, you could still get your back taken,
but at least you survive the Kimura.
But then you got to deal with the back take.
When you went to the bathroom,
we were talking about Kimura.
I was like...
I went to get an MRI
when I had some shoulder problems.
They told me my shoulder
had been dislocated.
And they're like,
was there ever any time
where your shoulder
was in an uncomfortable position?
I'm like, yeah,
like four times a week.
Like, what are you talking about?
Like, if you do jujitsu,
like at least four times a week,
you get...
It's a golf ball
that's kind of floating, right?
It's a bad joint.
Yeah, it's floating.
It's a shitty design.
So it's not connected to anything. It's the muscles around the golf ball in's kind of floating, right? It's a bad joint. Yeah, it's floating. It's a shitty design. So it's not connected to anything.
It's the muscles around the golf ball in the socket that actually keep it.
Well, it moves in such a weird way.
But I'll tell you one thing, man.
One of the best things that I've ever done for my shoulders is what you and I were doing the other day.
We were hanging from your shoulder.
Hanging from your shoulder.
Oh, that's great for you.
It's so good.
Your shoulders need to, to like they need space
yeah like it need it needs that and hanging is just gigantic another thing that's really big
for me man is club bells those clubs those metal clubs steel maces we do no it's like it it's a
club it's almost like a bowling pin yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. And you do these shield casts where you throw it over your shoulder
and put it in front of you so it's like this shit.
It's all this building up of all that tissue,
and it gives you a nice range of motion.
I love those.
This is a good fight.
Benavidez and Figueredo.
I just want Benavidez to win.
Exactly. Get the belt, and let's get rid just want Benavidez to win Exactly Get the belt
I love Benavidez
Get rid of the division
I want him to get the belt
And then retire
Yep exactly
He's like what 37
At that age
125
125
How old is Joe Benavidez
He's been doing it for a hot second
He has been
You guys are close
You've known each other a long time
Love Joe Benavidez
One of the nicest guys
Him and his wife
All time
Megan O'Leary
They're great
They're both amazing
But Joe is like Legitimately one of the nicest guys of all time. Megan O'Leary, they're great. They're both amazing.
But Joe is like legitimately one of the
nicest guys ever.
Such a great guy.
He's been training
with Casey Halstead
for the last couple years too.
In Vegas, really.
10th part of Vegas.
Nice.
Beautiful.
He hasn't fought in a while,
you know?
No, he had an ACL
reconstruction.
That's right.
And then he came back
and won.
Now he's fighting
for the fucking title.
Figueredo's no joke, though, man.
That guy can crack.
He's also been doing it for a hot second.
And he's a powerhouse, man.
Is he Brazilian?
Yeah.
Serious power.
This dude rides fucking water buffaloes and shit.
There's videos of him riding those crates.
Like these motherfuckers.
Like this thing.
It's the skull up there.
It's a dead water buffalo?
Yeah.
That's an Asiatic buffalo yeah that's an asiatic buffalo
that's from my boy adam green tree shout out to adam green you shot that thing with a bow
you shot that thing in africa no he shot in australia they've brought them to australia
they're an invasive species and they literally have to shoot them they they they have so dangerous
there's so many they call them the black death that right. There's so many of them in Australia.
Why were they brought there?
Some asshole.
Everything in Australia is brought there.
Everything.
Stags.
Kangaroos.
Red deer.
No, not kangaroos.
Koalas.
And not saltwater crocodiles.
How weird is it that people that don't live in a certain country have sympathy for the
animals that live in other
countries, but those indigenous people, they fucking hate those animals.
Because they're trying to farm.
And they want to kill these motherfuckers.
Try farming.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, grews are a problem.
Try raising lamb in lion territory or leopard territory.
No, that's what I'm talking about.
That's what I'm talking about.
They're pests.
But when you watch Discovery Channel or Nat Geo, it makes everyone like, oh, look, they're
going extinct.
Yeah, lion king. But meanwhile, yeah, oh, look, they're going extinct.
But meanwhile, we got to stop the poachers.
But meanwhile, the locals are like, these motherfuckers ravage our shit.
It's like mouthwash.
How weird is that?
That's weird.
I was watching New Lion King with my kids, and I was like, where's their balls?
I know.
Where's his balls?
There's no dick.
They're like, stop, daddy.
I'm like, he doesn't have any balls.
This doesn't make any sense.
Watch when he turns around.
That's a male lion, right? Yeah, they hit him.
Where's his balls?
You could show his fangs.
You could show fights with hyenas.
You can't show lion nuts.
Yeah.
That's outrageous.
Kids were watching, dude.
No.
Kids were watching.
You gotta make it realistic, though.
My kids are educated.
Balls.
You can't have a big set of balls on a cartoon.
They see my dog every day
My dog has balls
Your dog has some nuts
Yeah I don't let him
Your dog has some nuts on him
You know what happens
When your dog
Gets their balls removed
Balls are sacred
They no longer produce testosterone
And they get tired all the time
I've done it before with dogs
Where they were one way
And then they get fixed
Yeah it makes sense
You should not let your dog
Just breed and have Fucking puppies And shit and then they get fixed. Yeah, it makes sense. You should not let your dog just breed
and have fucking puppies and shit
where no one's taking care of your dog
and the puppies and you're irresponsible.
But Marshall's not fucking anybody.
He's with me.
I know.
He's fine.
How old is Marshall?
He's three.
You know he has more followers than 99% of the world?
He's a sweetie pie.
He deserves them. He's a sweetie pie He deserves them
He's a cutie
I love that dog so much
Every time I come home
You sleep with him?
He just
Oh no no
My wife would never allow that shit
But I hug him
I just love him man
He's just the nicest dog ever
Like every time I see him
He just runs up to me
He
When you pet him
He leans against you
Like he can't get closer to you
Does he shed a lot though?
Oh yeah like crazy
Yeah I can't do it.
Yeah, you can, though.
Yeah, you know what?
I used to be like that, too.
When me and my wife moved in together, she brought an animal.
She brought in two cats and a bunny, right?
Jesus Christ.
At first, I just didn't like the attitude.
The cats didn't like me.
I didn't like them.
I didn't like the meowing.
I fell in love with the bunny. meowing I fell in love with the bunny
Remember when I was
In love with the bunny
Do you remember that shit
Yes
Remember that era
I remember he was telling me
Oh I love this bunny so much
I go bro
Once you have a son
You're gonna fucking
Want to kick that bunny
Like a football
No no
He died
The bunny died before my son
From what
It was boredom
They just get old
They just get old
You don't understand
Don't fucking talk shit
On bunnies
You're like They don't talk shit.
They shit everywhere.
But it doesn't stink, and it's just dry.
You just pick it up with your fingers.
It's no big deal.
They're like little balls.
They're little balls.
You know what I like about dogs and cats?
They're predators.
They're more in tune with social, like the social dynamics.
Whereas like prey animals, like horses and deer, they just sit around
waiting for someone to eat them.
They're cute as fuck, though.
They're cute,
but they don't do shit.
Dogs are pack animals.
Exactly,
but they're also predators.
Cats kind of suck, though, dude.
Predators have more complicated brains.
They're thinking about things all the time.
They're considering
how you feel about them,
how they feel about you.
Are we all in this together?
Dogs, they just lick your hand.
They're like,
come on.
Cats suck so much, dude. Cats are sociopaths. No not so much no no no that's not true that's not true because mike i ignored my cats forever
and they don't give a fuck no no no they don't but once you give them love yeah with the cat you
know you know when you feed a straight cat it's gonna come back yeah once they learn once you
give them love i finally started giving my cat love because her brother died.
The rabbit died and her brother died.
So now we have one cat, nurse.
And I never gave her any love.
And like a year ago, I started giving her love.
I was like, you know what?
I just started petting her.
And then real quick, every time I come home through the door, walk through the door, She starts meowing at me And wants to go to the couch
She's like, take me to the couch
Let's go cuddle together
After all those years
Yeah, now we're like cuddling
And we got like this loving relationship
I swear to God
As soon as I walk through the fucking door
That cat goes
She falls
She goes, come on
She goes, let's go to the couch
She wants a free massage
Yeah, that's all she wants
No, what she wants She wants a free massage She's the cat. She wants a free massage. Yeah, that's all she wants. No, no, what she wants, she's got this disorder.
She has a disorder where as soon as she feels love,
she starts sucking on her arm.
It's a common thing for cats.
So all she wants, she gets in the zone.
As soon as you start petting her, she just goes.
Like she's sucking at the teeth.
Oh, dude, she just, she didn't, you know.
What was that?
It sounds like what?
He said it sounds like a stripper Exactly
There's some daddy issues
With your cat bro
This cat wants nothing more
Than to cuddle with me
That's all this cat wants
Is to cuddle with me
Hey have any of you guys
Been in New Zealand?
Yes I performed there

I did a theater there
It was the most beautiful place
I've ever seen

My buddy owns 5 private beaches
People told me
If you want to fucking escape reality
Move to New Zealand
Yes
It was so beautiful
It was so beautiful

We were talking about
We loved to hunt
My buddy owns
A peninsula

On your buddy's beach
That's the problem
15
Let's do a fight companion
Comedy show there
In New Zealand
Let's do it
How about we take these
We take these two
Fucking boys hunting
I think they'd be great
No no no no no no no
You eat meat
But I don't hunt
Alright
You couldn't do this
They won't do it I'm not gonna kill no animal. You eat meat. But I don't hunt. All right? You couldn't do this?
They won't do it.
I'm not going to kill no animal.
I don't want to see it.
I mean, I'll march around and shoot. I don't want to see it.
What about a wild pig?
Kill it.
Like an ugly, cunty, wild pig.
Skin it.
You stay at the campfire.
You prepare the pot and things.
Yeah, make us vegetables.
If shit went down, I'd go to Joe's house.
I'd go, you kill the motherfucker.
I'll just make sure no one fucks with you.
We've got to do another hunting thing.
What's dangerous in New Zealand?
It has to be something dangerous.
I can't just hunt like-
Rugby players.
Nothing dangerous.
Big Samoans.
Well, they have large stags.
Their stags are enormous in New Zealand.
Everything is an invasive species.
Including the stags, right?
Yeah, everything's invasive.
The red stags.
There's a few animals that are indigenous.
I don't even know if tar.
I don't even think tar.
You know what rhubars are?
You know what rhubars are?
It's like a plant.
Rhubar.
A rhubar.
A rhubar is a big-ass bumper in front of your car for kangaroos.
Oh, kangaroos, yeah.
Well, they have those in Iowa.
Because when you see them, you're not supposed to stop.
If you stop and try to swerve, you're going to get fucked up.
You're supposed to go right through them.
You got to go right through them.
Hey, listen.
I didn't make this up.
This is what they're telling me.
Yeah, well, they taste good.
And kangaroos, they're looked at as like rodents in Australia.
They don't give a fuck about it.
We love them in America, don't we?
No, I know. We love them. No, don't we? No, I know.
We love them.
No, totally.
Have you ever seen these thousand kangaroo strong herds that are running across the field?
When you realize what happens when you don't have any predators and you have these animals
that just breed and their populations get unchecked to the point where they have to
bring in snipers to thin the herd.
Bro, there's videos of kangaroos running across these fields where you're looking at like
thousands of yards.
Let's see that.
A full, full.
Is it on YouTube?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We played it multiple times.
What's a predatory animal that eats?
They have castors.
No, in New Zealand, they used to have host eagles, which is an enormous eagle.
They're like the biggest eagle ever.
They actually preyed on humans though
And then people wiped them out
Jesus Christ
And they were huge
What about cassowaries?
Do they have cassowaries in New Zealand?
That's a good question
I don't know
The cassowaries, no joke
They'll fuck you
What is that?
Can we hunt those?
No, you don't want to fuck with cassowaries
No, we can shoot it
Vultures?
They will kill you
They probably have something
Like a vulture
I need something dangerous to hump.
Where do vultures hang out?
What state?
A lot of them in California.
Are there?
Really?
Turkey vultures?
Yeah, a lot of turkey vultures out here.
What does that mean?
They're part turkey or they eat turkeys?
They have a little turkey neck looking thing.
Nasty looking neck.
I've seen a bunch of them.
Damn, Dan Hooker's a tall kid.
Dan Hooker is a beast, man.
He's a fucking beast.
He's out of style better than Jim, man.
Super sport.
Oh, him and fucking Volkanovski.
That's an amazing Jim.
Well, they're, I mean, Volkanovski's Australia, right?
And those two guys are New Zealand.
These guys are beasts, man.
Those are fucking monster.
That's a really good argument for Jim of the year is City Kick Boxing.
Oh, you'd have to give it to him.
Who else you gonna give it to?
Hard to beat.
Who's City Kick
I've never heard of them
Volkanovski
Volkanovski
New Zealand
Yes
Oh shit
Okay
They have Australia as well
Australia for Volkanovski
It's an amazing gym
How far is Australia
From New Zealand
It's right next door
Close
Right next door
How far is the flight
Two hours
One hour
If that
Yeah
Cause I flew from Sydney
Straight there
Like flying to Denver?
Yeah, it was easy.
I've been there once.
Hamilton, New Zealand.
It was so beautiful, man.
I need to go.
It was so beautiful.
But if we go, Brian, we should go and do a comedy gig and go hunt some stags.
Yes.
Done.
All right.
Can we do it?
Your buddy has properties.
He's got everything.
Does he have stag?
He's got so much money that in his place.
I don't want to hear about your buddy.
Yeah, I don't care about your rich friend.
He goes, if you look that way and that way, that's all my property.
It's the same thing in New Zealand.
We can hunt goat and stag.
Yeah, that's fine.
Hey, B, does he have a private jet?
Yes, he does.
And he will fly from here to there?
Yes.
All right, I'm in.
He has that.
I'm in.
And then you just want to do the comedy shows.
And he keeps asking me.
No, I'll go hunting with you guys.
It's our boy.
It's our boy, Joe General.
I'd go for it.
Yeah, he's great.
He's the best.
I'd go for the experience for sure.
I don't know if I could actually physically shoot the thing, but I like whatever.
My favorite meat ever is the meat that I've killed myself.
It's not even close.
My favorite meat is Dan Hooker, ladies and gentlemen, making that walk.
Big fight.
He seems rather tall or is he normal height?
He's very long.
No, he's a long, scrappy man.
He's got a perfect build for fighting, man.
Long limbs.
And he's got these fucking bulging shoulders and giant biceps and shit.
He's a freakish body.
Perfect body for fighting.
Some say freakish.
Some say nice.
Well, you could say that.
I like this guy, though.
Me too.
I like him, but the problem is I'm friends with Felder.
So if I appear biased...
That's one of the things I love about Fight Companions
That's how I am dude
Super biased towards your guys
Yeah it's hard
It's hard not to be
But that's the other problem with my other gig
As a UFC commentator
You know I just
I can't be that biased
Oh here
Here we go
Look at that screen
Look at all these fucking
Look at all these goddamn kangaroos
Will they attack?
If you stop
They'll fuck you up
If you stand next to them They'll box you the fuck up That's a lot of fucking kangaroos They If you stop, they'll fuck you up if you stand next to them.
They'll box you the fuck up.
That's a lot of fucking kangaroos.
They'll kick you with their rear feet.
How crazy is it that they know how to rear naked choke?
That's the craziest shit ever.
Hey, see if there are any catch stories in New Zealand.
Those things are gnarly, right, B?
It sounds like it's supposed to be from New Zealand.
They're the most dangerous bird in the world.
Let's fly down there and hunt them.
In New Zealand, and he's making the walk first.
I wonder how the...
Is he ranked higher?
Why?
Is that what they're doing?
He can't be higher.
He's walking first.
Felder's more famous.
No, no.
Felder's probably ranked lower, is what I'm saying.
Felder's ranked lower.
Here's the thing.
They're in New Zealand.
Dan Hooker's from New Zealand.
Neither guy's a champion.
Why isn't Dan Hooker coming out?
Hooker's definitely more of a well-known name in New Zealand than Pell Fowler.
Oh, my God, yeah.
Maybe, yeah.
In America, there's not doing anything.
It's kind of weird.
I feel it's weird that Hooker's coming out first.
That is strange.
Think about the winner of this.
Big fight on their hands.
You need a big boy fight.
Who is that?
Gaethje Poirier.
There's so many fighters in that division, man.
That division is almost overrun.
I firmly believe the UFC needs more divisions.
Firmly.
No.
I like it.
No.
Firmly.
I like 165, but that's it.
Every 10 pounds.
Every 10 pounds.
Every 10 pounds.
No, then you get like boxing.
It's too hard to keep up with.
No.
Boxing is like every four pounds.
No, boxing's...
And then four different fucking organizations.
Who is Hooker?
Who is the biggest guy he beat?
Hmm.
Hooker's had some big wins, man.
Name one.
Let's pull up his resume.
Pull it shit up, Jamie.
Well, his last fight...
Who the fuck did he stop in his last fight?
Let's see.
Ally Quinta, James Vick.
Oh, shit.
He lost to Barbarossa.
Yeah, lost to Barbarossa.
Jim Miller. Gilbert Burns. Ross Pearson. Oh, yeah. He lost to Barbosa. Yeah, lost to Barbosa. Jim Miller.
Ross Pearson.
Oh, yeah.
He got a lot of big wins.
Gilbert Burns is a big win.
Jim Miller, big win.
Yaya Rodriguez lost by decision.

The Jason Knight one.
But lately, he's been on it.
2016, he lost to Jason Knight.
Interesting.
Four years ago.
He lost to Yair Rodriguez
Ah interesting
But you know what
Over the last few years though
He's been on fire
Yeah 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
He's 6 out of his last 7 dude
And Mark DiCasey's a beast too
Yeah he KO'd Jim Miller
KO'd Gilbert Burns
Lost to Barboza
Whatever shit happens
Starched James Vick
Then beat Al Iaquinta That's a tough go He decided to stand kick for kick Austin Barboza, whatever shit happens, starts James Vick, then beat Al Iaquinta.
That's a tough go.
He decided to stand kick for kick with Barboza.
Sometimes guys are too tough for their own good.
Look at Felder.
Look at Felder's face.
He's an animal, man.
Yeah, he looks like an animal, man.
He's an animal.
Felder's fired up for this fight, man.
I mean, I did commentary with him.
He was real edgy.
I was like, dude, you're so edgy. He was laughing. He's like, man, I can't wait to fight this him. He was like real edgy. I was like, dude, you're so edgy.
And he was laughing.
He's like, man, I can't wait to fight this motherfucker.
He was talking about it.
He's like, he's never been more pumped up for a fight.
Interesting.
He's never been more angry for a fight.
He's so rough.
He's like, this guy's a fucking animal.
And he goes, it brings it out in me.
He goes, I know he's dangerous.
And he goes, I can't wait to go out there and fucking smash him.
He was, like, because we were doing commentary, shit, a month ago, right?
How many weeks ago it was, whatever it was.
And he was so amped up.
Like, it's not, you think that it's like they train and then they get in there in a big fight and then here they are.
Now they're edgy.
No, he's edgy weeks out, months out.
Is he a prickly one?
No, he's a great guy. Yeah, he's a good dude, right? He's remarkably calm and sweet. He's a great guys out Months out Is he a prickly one? No he's a great guy
Yeah he's a good dude right
He's remarkably calm and sweet

Smart guy
To this day
UFC isn't like
Kind of weird
About you doing
Fight companions
I can't hear this
What?
UFC still isn't
Kind of weird
About you doing
Fight companions
They love it
They love it
They love it
Dana asked me to do it
For a Tuesday night
Contender series
He's like you should do it
For a Tuesday night Contender series Oh shit I'm, you should do it for a Tuesday night contender series.
Oh, shit.
I'm like, listen, if we have a night off, man, I'm down.
The problem is Tuesday night at the store is one of the hottest fucking nights of the year.
It's the best night.
Tuesday night is amazing.
It's the best night of comedy.
Yeah, it's fucking incredible because everybody's home.
How weird is that?
It's like Tuesday night.
It's crazy.
We are in paradise.
When it comes to stand-up comedy, we are in fucking paradise.
There's no other club in the world
Like that right
No
There's nothing
Nobody doing that right
People talk about the cellar
The cellar's popping
The cellar's fine
It's so small
It's not like the store
It's small
It's not even close
The comedy store's got three rooms
Well not only that
The cellar has good comics
The comedy store is loaded
Every night with murderers
Yeah
Every night
Every night It Every night.
It's a savage fest.
Here we go.
I mean, the other night, I was on a lot with Sarah Silverman.
I mean, I think Jelzlmec.
It was Joey Diaz.
It was ridiculous.
You're on with the best comics ever, and it makes all of our levels come up.
Because you see these people on Before You Murder, and you can't be half-assed.
Paul Felder about to make shit happen.
Joey Diaz was telling me the other day that he's not, he goes, I'm not doing anything but the Comedy Store.
I mean, that's the best place.
He still does the improv.
He did the improv maybe a couple weeks ago.
Yeah, yeah, but I don't want to throw anybody under the bus, but he was talking about certain clubs, like in the Valley and stuff.
He goes, I'm not doing those anymore.
The Comedy Store, that's where...
He said that's why he thought he messed up with his special
by not going at the Comedy Store against the best of the best.
He said he was going around everywhere.
So just folks on the store.
I think he thinks that,
but I think the reality is he just needed to do more specials.
The problem is when you haven't really done a special,
then all of a sudden you're doing a special 30 years in a comedy.
It's got so much weight attached to it.
And I've been telling him forever he should be doing specials.
I've been doing specials forever.
When you do specials forever, I do a special every two years.
Every two years, I go, here we go again.
I'm doing it again.
I'm doing it again.
And the last one in particular, when I went on stage, it felt like a show.
It was like one of the only times I've ever done a special where I walked on stage.
It also was in Boston, which is my hometown.
But when I walked on stage, it felt like a regular show.
It's because I do them all the time.
I do them all the time.
So if you watch that special and you say, I liked it.
That was funny.
That's a show.
It was as close to a regular show as you can get. A lot of times, it's not. A lot of times, I liked it. That was funny. That's a show. It was as close to a regular show as you can get.
A lot of times it's not.
A lot of times it's tension.
It's tight.
You don't feel loose.
You don't feel loose.
You don't feel like a show.
Another thing that I did was different was the last couple shows,
San Francisco, which was my best one up to date,
and then this last one, which is I think even better than that.
I did both
of those where i did four shows so i filmed four four shows yeah that's great so that's unheard of
by the way i only mostly used the second show friday night but they were all great it was just
a matter of like but the thing is you feel loose because you know you have four shows i remember
tony hinchcliffe text me after your first one like, he could stop now and he'd be fine.
The first one was great.
That's what he said.
And then the second one was even more epic, but I was a little loaded.
Yeah, he said your first one, he goes, oh, you could stop now.
Once I knew I had it in the tank, I smoked like four fucking joints.
Oh, my God.
We got barbecued.
I was like, should I get high in between shows?
I'm like, let's get barbecued.
I got barbecued because I was like, we already got it.
And then I was just, I was ranting.
I was making shit up.
Who's opened up for you with Chappelle?
Do you still have Santino?
Hinchcliffe.
Hinchcliffe does.
And then in Vancouver, it's Santino and Hinchcliffe.
Santino's so fucking funny.
He's an animal.
He's my favorite.
Santino and Hinchcliffe, that's an animal show.
How about Santino and Bobby
Have a podcast together
I know
Good for them
I know
I'm excited
And Bobby was talking to me about it
He's like
Why have I waited so long
I was like
Why have you waited so long
Here we go baby
Here we go baby
This is gonna be a scrap
Jesus Christ
It's gonna be a wild fight man
Rough
It's gonna be a wild fucking fight
Felder's a half
Oh
Felder's a Felder's a hell. Oh! Felder's a half.
Felder went to put his gloves up, and Hooker said no.
Brian's not familiar with Hooker.
You think your boy Felder's going to roll through him, huh?
No, no, no.
You want to bet on this, you fuck?
I didn't say that.
How much do you want to bet?
What do you want to do?
But I'm going with Felder because Felder is very scrappy.
Well, no, because he's a theater major.
Let's be real.
And he's a theater major.
You've got to go with a theater major. He's dramatic, because he's a theater major. Let's be real. And he's a theater major. You've got to go with a theater major.
He's dramatic, and he's pissed.
Here we go.
Brian, give me your assessment.
Who's going to win this fight?
You think Felder?
I'm going to just go with Felder
because he always, always is in the fight,
and he's always this tough.
You also don't know who Hooker is.
Let's just be honest.
Brandon Schaum, what do you got?
I'll take Hooker via decision.
Classic fight, though.
Fight of the night.
Decision.
Hooker's already throwing that low calf kick.
He likes that as much as anybody.
He's a giant fan of that low calf kick.
Here we go.
Interesting.
Interesting.
Set up.
Oh!
Oh, he put it right in his knee.
He already got him.
No, no. you know what it is
His low
His calf is already fucked up
He's hit like four or five
Low calf kicks
Hooker has
Four already
Yeah
Oh
He threw a bunch of them
Really right off the bat
If they're fighting like this
They ain't doing the decision
These boys are
Yeah
Cocked up
Hooker is the master
Of that low calf kick
By cocked up do you mean
You know what I exactly mean.
He means ready to rock.
Boys night out college shit.
We're straight, but we're just
fucking around tonight.
There he is, another one.
Those low calf kicks are so gross.
They've got to be a motherfucker.
They suck. I'll kick you there.
You want to feel it? You can see him setting it up.
He keeps hitting it, too. He hit it again.
And Felder's not even checking it.
Felder's trying to get the timing down, but he's just not there yet.
The problem is, even though you look normal, your leg is weird.
Oh, shit.
Don't sleep on Felder, you fucks.
Felder popped him with that left hook.
Don't sleep on Felder.
Felder's a fucking tanker.
He is, man.
You know the thing about Felder?
He's really big for that division.
He's thick, boy.
He was walking around 190 pounds.
Yep, and guess what?
When he drops down to 55, he just let Hooker.
I think that's why Felder walked out last, because he's ranked one ahead of Hooker.
He's six and Hooker's seven.
Well, it's probably like a psychological thing.
Oh, he checked that one.
Ooh, they gave him a little jab in the face.
A little touch in the face.
Not a big deal.
He's been there before.
When you look at Hooker's body,'s so weird he's got like big ass fucking
shoulders and big ass biceps it's almost like they're they're tommy hearns kind of stuff yeah
it's like they're from a they're from a guy whose body is big oh that left left hookers hands are
down that's what i'm talking about that's how he fights it is's how he fights. It is, but with Felder keeps targeting that left hook. That left hook was just a hair off.
And Felder beat Barboza.
Hooker got stopped by Barboza.
I hate MMA math, but there's something to that.
And now with Felder pressing this.
You got fucking Schaub all over Hooker's dick.
So that's hard to fight when you got Schaub.
I like Felder.
When you got a 260 pound man on your dick.
It's hard to fight.
Don't get it twisted.
I like Felder.
I just hate how you don't know who Hooker is.
You've been on the Hooker train from day fucking one, dude.
You love Hookers?
I love Kiwis.
Yeah, you do.
Why don't you marry them?
I love burning Brendan.
I love burning him.
I don't think you burned him.
I don't know, dude.
I'm pretty good at burns.
Boy, Hooker is so fucking aggressive with that low calf kick.
It's crazy.
That'll chop a tree down, guys.
What?
I called the tree.
Now we got Felder.
He stopped.
Oh, shit.
That hook's there.
That hook.
It's trouble, man.
He's landed two really hard hooks in this round.
Yeah, Hooker could be in a little bit of trouble, man.
Well, the fact that Hooker's been stopped by Barboza and got beaten down in that fight
and eventually just crumbled.
That was an amazing fight, dude.
I guarantee you Felder knows that.
And Felder knows that he went toe-to-toe with Barboza,
and he's got that in the back of his head.
Look, he's also won six times less seven.
Well, Felder's won five in a row.
Felder's striking is outstanding.
Felder's fucking smart, man.
And he's been training with Duke Rufus as arguably top two or three best striking coaches on planet Earth.
I mean, Duke Rufus is a fucking machine.
Mm-hmm.
Yep.
Oh, switching stances.
Oh, low kick.
Oh, look at this.
Oh, they kind of fucked him up.
Oh, man.
Knees.
Felder just seems a lot more sturdy, doesn't he?
Mm-hmm.
He's strong as fuck, bro.
He's a big fella.
When he's walking around in between fights,
like how the fuck do you ever make 155?
Very interesting.
Look at this.
180, I think.
Dan Hooker.
Dan Hooker's just got crazy biceps.
Like biceps and shoulders that don't belong in his body.
He's probably strong.
He's probably chimp strong.
Well, chimp strong and ridiculous power.
Yeah.
Yeah, separate, boys.
Oh, calf kick again.
That left hook, though, dude.
Yeah, it's there.
It's there.
Yeah.
And if you're a hooker fan, you should be worried.
If you're a hooker, you got to watch out for the hook. I'm telling you, the fact that Felder knows that Barboza stopped Hooker,
but that Felder beat Barboza in the rematch,
and he went toe-to-toe with him in the first fight as well.
Yeah, he did.
By the way, Felder likes a fucking fisticuff.
He likes to get into it.
And he's getting after him now, man.
Yeah, he's really pressing this fight.
Oh, shit. Oh, shit. He likes to get into it And he's getting after him now Yeah he's really He's pressing this fight Oh shit
Oh shit
Wow
What a round
I give that round to Felder
Felder's so fucking
Yeah
I give that round to Felder
Yeah
I mean
Aggressor
The big moments
For Dan Hooker
Were the low kicks
Especially the low calf kick
But that's not enough
Do they get scored?
Felder pressed the fight
Felder controlled the center
Of the octagon more often Do they get the score? Do they get scored? Felder pressed the fight. Felder controlled the center of the octagon more often.
Do they get the score?
Do they score?
No.
Not as much.
Not as much.
Not enough.
Not enough.
The problem is-
Hooker definitely lost that round.
Even though it's in New Zealand, Felder's going forward.
Felder's throwing more hands.
They don't count really kicks.
Are you divorced?
I can't fuck.
I can't the fuck up.
I can't drive, Baba.
I tried that.
I had to have Brennan pick me up. Give it to Shop. No, I can't. I got to put my kid to bed. I can't drive, Bubba. I tried that. I had to have Brennan pick me up.
Give it to Shop.
No, I can't.
I've got to put my kid to bed.
I can't be high.
Oh, shit.
Felder's got a swollen eye, guys.
Oh, damn it.
Felder's right eye is swollen.
That's a problem.
What happened?
I don't know.
He got kicked.
He did jab the piss out of him.
I know, but that's quick to have it swell up.
Boop.
Oh, that low kick.
That's what it was.
See that low kick?
His knee looked terrible there.
Boop. There's the jab that low kick. That's what it was. See that low kick? His knee looked terrible there. Boom.
There's the jab.
Low kick.
Jabby.
God.
Boom.
Hooker's so long.
He's so long.
Boom.
There's that left hook.
Almost missed it, though.
Ooh, that right eye.
That right eye.
That right eye swollen real bad.
That right eye looks like it's closed.
God, Felder's such a dog.
He's such a dog, but that is not good at all.
That's a giant distraction, that right eye is closed up.
And it's only the second round.
Yep.
And this is a five-round fight.
Let's see if Felder winds up.
But here's the thing about those kind of swollen eyes.
If they have a good corner man, they always do, and they have end swell,
they can push that shit aside.
Yeah, they can move it a little bit.
It's just if it opens up is when you're in trouble.
Right, right, right.
Let's see what Felder can do in this round.
Boy, there's really no speed advance.
They're both pretty dialed in.
I'd say Felder's faster.
I don't think so.
I don't know about that.
I think you're just texting this entire second round
and then you just jumped on.
This is a really well-matched fight.
Six or seven.
Especially when Felder understands
how significant it is, as does Hooker.
Dude, the winner of this gets a huge fight
against a big name man.
Yeah, well, Gaethje's waiting in the wings, right?
Nobody wants to fuck with him and he's the scariest guy
in the division outside of Khabib. Well, Corn to Dana, Gagey turned out a bunch of fights.
Yeah.
Just waiting for-
But is that Gagey or is that Ali?
You know, it might be Ali.
I bet it's a combination of both.
Yeah.
Who's Gagey waiting for?
Well, he wants the title.
Connor or Tony.
He wants the title.
He wants a big boy.
Nobody's calling out Tony.
Nobody calls out Tony.
Nobody calls out Tony.
Nobody's calling out Tony.
No one ever has. No, that's so funny. Nobody's calling out Tony. Nobody calls out Tony. Nobody calls out Tony. Nobody's calling out Tony. No one ever has.
That's so funny.
Nobody's calling out Tony.
Khabib's fighting him because he's just in line.
When is that Khabib fight?
Calling out Tony.
Don't make us recap it.
Think about it.
Who in the lightweight division has called out Tony?
Nobody ever.
Nobody ever.
No one's got the mic on.
I want Tony Ferguson next. Never. Where's Tony at? Where's Kukui? Tony, where you at. Never. Nobody ever. No one's got the mic on. I want Tony Ferguson next.
No way.
Never.
Where's Tony at?
Where's Kukui?
Tony, where you at?
Never.
Never.
No.
They just pretend he doesn't exist.
Yeah, they just jump over him.
It's April 18th, Brian.
Man, Hooker hits that leg and then just, as soon as he's off balance, boom, throws his
hand.
He's throwing that low calf kick so much.
Oh, look at this, though.
Oh, shit.
Look at this, though. You gonna jump on him? Ooh, kang so much. Oh, look at this, though.
You going to jump on him?
Ooh, kangaroo style. Oh, shit.
This is going to be hard to do.
Dude, all he needs is that right hook in, that right leg in, and he's got the seat belt in.
Is he going to jump to it?
You know what?
He could pull him back into the truck if he knew that game.
That's a lot of time.
If he took his right ankle and went behind Felder's left ankle, that would collapse him.
But you have to be really confident with your truck game.
Felder's strong as fuck, man.
This is a hard game to implement.
Look at Felder's legs.
Dude, Hooker's right foot.
That's the one that's based.
The left one is around his right knee, right?
If that right foot hooks Felder's left ankle, dude, and that'll collapse him.
Isn't that what Krohn did to his-
Krohn.
You've got to be comfortable with the truck game.
If you're not, you're not going to do it.
It feels awkward.
I saw him.
But, man, he's got it right here.
And he could just go from the truck to the back anyways.
He could use-
Oh, man.
That right ankle.
Here's the thing.
He's winning the round doing this.
Yeah, just hanging on.
Oh, you let it go.
Because it's over. It's over. You let it go. They're ankle. Here's the thing. He's winning the round doing this. Yeah, just hanging on. Oh, you let it go. Because it's over.
It's over.
You let it go.
They're free.
Well, that was just a moment, and there's no damage done.
I don't know if that's silly.
Felder's eye is closing.
It depends on how this last two minutes go.
You know how judges are, man.
Yeah, especially when you're an idiot.
Damn, Hooker hit that low kick again.
He's able to get that without getting punched in the face.
Well, he's throwing it so sweet.
I like the way Felder pulls up his shorts.
Dive into a double when he does that.
Just dive into a fucking double.
Hooker just hit him with a nice left hook,
and Felder's not seeing it very well because of that left side.
Oh, body shot.
Because his right eye's so swollen,
that left side of Hooker is a dangerous weapon.
Brian, if you're watching this
fight with stallone like you usually watch your fights what's that sound like does stallone ask
you questions no they all get they all get tips what should he do here no there's all tips
back when you were fighting overseas
i usually have sugar ray there too so Why didn't he just take him down? I was in there with Apollo I threw the left and the left
Why didn't he just take him down?
Felder hurt Dan Hooker
With that one low kick
That one low kick that he just threw
Dan Hooker did not like it
He did not like it
It's getting gnarly now
Felder's face is beat up
The real issue is that one eye, that right eye.
It's really swollen.
His nose ain't helping.
No, nothing's helping, but his nose is a mess anyway.
Yeah.
Like, his nose is a mess coming into this fight.
He's not worried about that.
Damn.
I'll tell you, Dan Hooker's got some nasty knees, man.
Dan Hooker's...
Oh!
Went for the spin, son.
Oh, left hook!
He clipped him. Well, a little bit of
a stumble of legs together too
but. Oh shit.
Yeah!
Felder's such a fucking animal.
Look at these fucking animals.
Oh! Felder hurt him! He hurt him with that
spinning back fist. Yeah, he did.
That's what the fuck we want. I think he hit him with the elbow
on that spin. He wob he did. That's what the fuck we want. I think he hit him with the elbow on that spin. He did.
He wobbled him.
He did.
Oh!
Oh!
Damn, look at him staring down.
It's getting crazy.
Look at him fucking stare him down.
Fuck around, you fucks.
We got three more fucking rounds.
These guys are so good, man.
We got 30 seconds.
Man, I feel like it's
rough house fucking Saturday, huh?
Such a good fight.
It's so evenly matched.
It's so back and forth.
Dan Hooker is so good, and so is Felder.
And Felder's such a fucking aggressive guy.
Who do you give that second round to?
Felder.
No.
Gotta do it.
It depends.
There's only two choices.
And he said one choice, and he said no.
Why are you asking the question?
There was only two answers.
What do you think?
He goes, no.
He asked the question. It's close two answers. What did you give it to you?
It's close.
The first half, Hooker had
the position on the back, controlled the off-gun.
That spinning elbow and the punches by
Felder and the fact that Felder was chasing him down.
I give it to Felder in that situation
because of damage.
I like the fact that Hooker had his back
but he really didn't do any damage.
He held a position for a good 30 seconds or so.
Longer than that.
Maybe longer, right?
But the reality is when it comes to actual damage and big shots landed,
there's an edge to Felder.
And then also Felder pushing.
Look at his face.
You have a 2-0 Felder.
Oh, man, I'd have to look at it objectively.
The problem is when your face is beat up, the judges sometimes...
Hey, man, we're in New Zealand.
These judges might never give it to Felder.
It can't be any worse than New York or wherever the fuck scored...
Houston.
Yeah, Houston.
Houston was bad.
Dude, there's going to be some bitches out there saying, I fucking hate fight companion.
All they talk about is hookers.
That was not good, huh?
No.
That was not good.
I'm sorry.
You try.
I tried.
I just smoked weed. I just smoked weed.
I just smoked weed.
You swing, you miss.
You can't hit everyone.
You swing sometimes.
You miss.
You guys keep saying hooker over and over.
Hooker, hooker, hooker, hooker.
Felder is pushing the pace on hooker, which is very rare.
He's going after hooker, but not tactically like Barbozaza but like super aggressively like in your face really
aggressive yeah nice jab dude he's catching him man yeah oh man this is a real fight this is a
real fight yeah real dangerous fight felder's mind is so fucking strong one of the things about him
that's so interesting is he's such a smart articulate guy he's a great commentator but
behind that there's that inferno.
I know.
You know, there's something going on inside that guy's head.
Yeah.
Whatever's going on in his head, it's dark, man.
Nice uppercut there.
Dude.
He clipped Hooker with that uppercut.
Now Hooker's trying to get it back.
See him get, like, ramping up?
He's trying to get back that uppercut.
Ooh, that left hook is dangerous,
and Hooker's not picking his fucking right hand up.
His hands are super low a lot of the time.
A lot of the time.
He's got those long arms.
He does.
He's being a pest.
It's volume, but Felder makes you pay.
He's trying to set stuff up, and so is Felder,
but neither guy's got a range.
Felder makes you pay, man.
Felder lands. Ooh, that neither guy's got a range. Felder makes you pay, man. Felder lands.
Oh, that jab.
God, that jab.
When Felder lands, it's not doing much damage on Hooker's face,
but fuck, man, when he lands, he's making him pay.
Dude, Felder's doing more damage than this round.
A hundred percent.
Oh, look at this.
He's also throwing for the fucking bleachers.
He's trying to knock his face off.
Yeah, he's trying to knock his face off.
Anytime Hooker makes a mistake,
if Hooker leaves himself in the pocket
and he knows Felder's coming back with missiles,
that jab is so nice.
Felder lands that left hook. Now this one's over.
Good right hand by Felder.
That's a good exchange for Hooker, too.
Oh, it's not bad. He landed a right hand
in that exchange. Hooker just doesn't have
the power, does he? The same power.
But not the same power as Felder.
But he's waiting to set it up.
The problem is his power is being stifled by the fact that Felder is so aggressive and
threatening.
He makes you think.
He looks like he's taking less damage, Hooker.
Yes.
Well, who knows?
Which is weird, though, because Felder might just have a lot of scar tissue on his face,
but Felder's landing the bigger shot, the power shot.
He's got runner skins.
Sometimes it's one or two shots.
One or two shots can do something weird
to your nose or weird to your eye,
and it doesn't necessarily have to be the hardest.
It just hits you perfect.
Felder's hitting that.
Let's be honest, too.
Felder's out of it.
Hooker's catching him.
That's a nice left by Felder.
Ooh, look at that.
There's changes.
I don't know.
It looks super even to me.
It looks like they're both on there.
Oh, left hand by Hooker.
Beautiful left hand by Hooker.
That one went straight down the pipe.
They're about to start swinging here soon.
Oh, my God.
This is a crazy fight.
Oh, Jesus.
Hooker lit him up coming in.
Hooker gave him that two-piece.
Well, I think also Felder's having a hard time seeing.
Like QE2.
He can't see out of that right eye, kids.
There's a lot of blood on Felder's face.
Yeah.
Oh, that nice jab by Hooker.
Look at that.
I just see a red mess.
Oh, see, and he pulled back out of that kick.
Oh.
He's lighting that nose up.
Hooker's got that jab timed in.
God, Felder loves this shit, man.
When he's bloody and shit like this, he loves it.
Oh, nice low kick.
Boom, boom.
Oh, right hand by Felder.
Oh, my goodness. But two pieces by Hooker, and then he's out. Oh. Oh, nice low kick. Boom, boom, boom. Oh, right hand by Felder. Oh, my goodness.
But two pieces by Hooker, and then he's out.
Oh, shit.
Felder caught him a little bit with that left hand there as he was charging in.
This is wild.
This is a high-stakes fucking game here, kids.
Oh, you knew this one was going to be good.
You knew this one.
Yeah, how happy are you that it's five rounds, right?
Oh, yes.
Three of them.
Exactly. Two more rounds after this. Yeah, how happy are you that it's five rounds, right? Yes. Three of them. Exactly.
Two more rounds after this.
Oh, back kick.
Oh, shit.
That's got to hurt.
See, whoever wins these next 40 seconds can steal this round.
100%.
Oh, left hand by Hooker.
And then he got out.
Hooker's got this round.
Clean left hand.
Well, that reach advantage comes in all right hand.
Let's see what happens here, though.
So far, Hooker has this round.
Yeah, I would agree.
Hooker's face looks fine.
Feller shooting for a takedown.
Interesting, but Hooker turns him around.
Yep.
Hooker fucking executing.
Hooker's strong with his under.
Yeah, showing his strength.
Showing his physical strength, too.
So you'd probably have it, you know, I've drank a lot of whiskey.
Two to one.
And I've talked a lot of shit to Brian.
I'd probably say.
Two to one.
Two to one.
Yeah.
Felder's going in two to one.
But I would say this round is pretty clean for Hooker.
Wait a minute.
You got Felder two one?
Yeah, Felder up two one.
Really?
Hooker won this round, but he lost the first two.
I don't know about that.
Dude, we're all.
So close.
I mean, I love Felder. We're all so close.
I love Felder.
He's bleeding everywhere.
Look at this job.
2-1 to Hooker.
I can see that too, Eddie.
Felder's fucking cut up.
I can see that too, Eddie. It could be 2-1.
Who knows how they scored that one round where Hooker had his back.
Good on us, Jeff.
They're in New Zealand. they're in New Zealand.
And they're in New Zealand.
They're in New Zealand.
At least they're not in Houston.
Sorry, Houston.
A lot of good.
Sorry, everybody who lives in Houston.
Except for that one ref.
I love Houston.
He can suck a dick, dude.
Yeah.
He should shut down his MMA gym.
Did you see the Jonathan Martinez-Andre Ewell fight?
That was the worst robbery of the night.
It was on Fight Pass.
Oh, no.
I don't have Fight Pass.
We were 100% convinced Martinez won the fight.
He dominated the second and third rounds.
Yule probably broke his arm. He had something
real wrong with his arm, his right hand.
And afterwards they gave it to Yule
and I looked over at Dominic Cruz
and his jaw dropped.
When they judge a score...
What?
Do they give that card to a neutral party?
I'm not sure.
It must be someone who's working inside the commission.
Because in boxing, when you judge the first round,
in boxing, you judge.
The first round they do, I think, yeah.
No, when you judge the first round,
you give it to somebody, right?
Yes.
I think that's how they do it.
Do they not do that in New York?
I'm sure they do.
This is 55.
It's the same commission.
Yeah, 55.
Holy shit, these guys' arms are jacked.
They're not really 55.
Felder's 190 pounds.
And so is Hooker.
Hooker's huge. Hooker used to pounds. And so is Hooker. Hooker's huge.
Hooker used to fight 45, which is just crazy.
Oh, elbow by Felder.
Oh, that's hooked by Felder.
That snapped his head back.
Oh, Felder is swinging.
Look at Felder. Oh, Jesus. He's so crazy.
He's trying to get him out of there.
Felder is a fucking savage.
He's trying to get him out of there.
Oh, Jesus Christ, this is sick
Oh my goodness
Come on, Paul
What the fuck, Paul
Paul's a fucking monster
Hooker's starting to get a little bruised up too
What a fucking stud
Felder is just so
Undeniably savage
He's so game
He's so game
He's all in Oh He's so game. He's so game. He's so game.
He's all in.
He's all in.
Oh, right hand by Felder.
Jesus Christ.
Oh, he's starting to take over a little bit, dude.
Yeah, he is.
Well, he's risking it.
He's doing what you gotta do.
You gotta do it.
He's throwing himself into the fire.
Oh, right hand left hook.
Jesus Christ.
Felder.
Felder.
If I'm Felder, I like the exchange.
Let's play the game.
Let's see who goes out.
Well, he's forcing himself. Oh who goes out. He's forcing himself.
Oh, left hand!
He's forcing himself on Hooker.
A couple of good chances.
Right hand!
He hurt him!
Jesus Christ.
Now Hooker's starting to show it.
Felder's showing.
Oh, but those low kicks by Hooker.
Money in the bank.
I like it.
Doesn't matter.
Oh!
Oh, he stumbled!
That hurt him.
Oh, my goodness.
That hurt him.
Felder!
Felder feeling it! Feeling it! Oh, he's coming. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, boy.! That hurt him. Oh, my goodness. That hurt him. Felder! Felder feeling it!
Feeling it!
Oh, he's coming.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
Hands warm, too.
Staying calm.
Felder staying calm.
Keeping that pressure on.
Now you see Hooker's face.
He's going to light him up.
Looking to explode.
He's going to light him.
Oh, look at this!
Hooker for the fucking takedown attempt.
No, not Felder.
Not with Felder.
Did he wrestle?
Your wrestling's no good here.
I don't think either one of them Have a wrestling background
No
Felder's just such an athlete man
He's just fucking
His striking is amazing
He's also very intelligent
He does what he has to do
To be prepared
He's not going to go into a fight
With holes in his game
No
You know there's guys
That go into a fight
Hoping they don't get taken down
Felder's not that guy
He just seems like
He works on what he's bad at
Every day in practice.
And he's turning Hooker around.
Oh! Elbow on the break!
He's a sober fella.
Has Felder ever fought
a high-level wrestler that kept taking him
down that he couldn't stop the takedowns?
That's a good question.
Oh, look at this. Hooker's got his back again.
I don't like this.
He's controlling us.
He's fine right here. It all depends on how good his this. He's controlling us. He's fine right here.
It all depends on how good his jiu-jitsu is.
He's working that hand.
If this was Khabib, Khabib's fans would be happy as fuck.
Yeah, he's going to take him down.
He's going to ride him and take him down.
This is his shit.
He got him on the fence.
He's going to drag him down.
Watch.
He does this every fucking fight.
But Felton can't stay here for too long just for judges' perceptions.
Okay, now he's turned around.
Felder's winning.
You got to remember.
Yeah, but he's got to be careful.
We're in New Zealand.
Here we go.
We're in New Zealand.
Yeah, but in a position like that against the fence, if the ref broke him up and brought
him back to the center, nobody would give a shit.
Oh!
Right hand by Felder.
But if it was Khabib, they would never do that right right they would
never do that like they would never take khabib off the fucking fence i hate when referees break
up fights on the fence and i hate when they break them up on the ground i know people disagree with
that and they think it'll make the fight boring i say i don't care oh right hand by felder i tell
you what hooker can take a punch he can take around put him down man punch he can take it
hooker could take it and but he's also realizing to put him down, man. He can take it. Hooker can take it.
But he's also realizing he's in New Zealand.
But now things are getting emotional because Felder's putting the heat on him.
Felder's putting that aggressive heat on him.
This isn't just like he's catching him with shit.
He's pressing him, and he's getting in his face.
And he's making it real.
Oh, left hand.
He's making it real dangerous.
He hasn't lost a stitch of speed in this third round
well he's
again
he's a guy that's not
going to come into a fight
unprepared
right hand
Felder with a jab
oh god that jab is beautiful
that jab is the biggest
any fucking boxing jab
I've ever seen
Hooker don't want none of it
Hooker wants to go to the ground
he's trying to take him down
this is not good
he's not trying to take him
this is not good oh big elbow trying to take him down This is not good
Oh big elbow
This is a big round for Felder
These are the championship rounds here
By the way
Oh elbow off the break
Elbow in the clinch by Felder was nice
But again
Again
If that was Khabib
He'd be winning right here
Right?
No
If he got fucked up that much that round
No
No By the way In this break I would like to say Punches winning right here, right? No. If he got fucked up that much that round, no. No.
By the way,
in this break,
I would like to say,
the punches,
Felder is so far ahead
in this round.
Literally,
Hooker has landed
nothing in this round
that made you go,
oh!
I wonder the percentage
of rounds
the guy in the position
that Hooker's in
would win,
even if he got
tattooed a couple times.
No, no, no.
He pushed him against the fence.
But not like this round.
Devastating changes.
He's not doing jack shit.
He's just holding on.
There's no way this is going to get him back.
I agree with you, and I understand what you're saying,
but what I'm saying is don't you think there's judges out there
that would give it to the guy that has the control against the fence?
That'd be tough, that round.
Well, maybe that guy in Houston that gave all four rounds to John Jones over Dominic Reyes.
Wait a minute.
So you're saying only a retard would do that?
Did you have Jones winning that fight or Reyes?
I watched it five times.
And I watched it two times the next day.
And then I watched it three more times since.
The third round is the only confusing round.
It's a little dicey.
I would say the third round is hard because John is pressing the action.
I don't think nobody got robbed.
It's not a clear-cut winner.
I hate when people say that.
Look at Paul's face.
And I also feel like John just dominated the championship round.
That's got to count for something.
I agree with you 100%.
It's got to count for something.
Okay, so let's set the record straight.
Okay, check this out.
This exact same round, for sure you thought Felder landed way more punches than Hooker, right?
But then towards the end, Hooker had him against the fence and controlled him.
He just controlled him.
Felder wins that round.
Everybody wins that round.
Everybody wins that round that's on Felder's side, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, that's clear.
Yeah. Okay, that's clear. Yeah.
Okay, that's all I wanted to know.
This could be 2-2 going into this fifth round.
It could be.
When you look at the numbers, too, some people may give the first or second round a hooker.
Then you give that third round a hooker.
This could be it.
Then Felder got the fourth and second.
And again, you've got to deal with fuckery.
And here's the thing about bad judging.
I mean, this is just an idea.
But it is possible that bad judging leads to other people going,
well, we can't be as bad as the people in Houston.
Yeah, you're right.
There's like the standard lowest.
Oh, you're crazy if you don't think one of these Qs are going to give Hooker four rounds to one.
No matter what happens.
I think so.
So if you could put a guy against the fence and hold him like you did him,
does that count for anything?
Yeah.
It's control.
What's the most it counts for? Oh, right hand by Felder. for anything yeah yeah it's like what is it it's definitely it's control what's the most oh right here it's control it's not everything but it's something okay what's more important is some people look at that oh right hand
oh another one oh jesus is more important actual damage is more important yeah okay but let's say
there was no damage at all and one guy ended up holding the other guy against the other. That guy wins.
That guy wins because he proved that he's controlling the fight.
He did an aggressive move.
Even though there was no punches.
But once you start adding punches and strikes, significant strikes, then it kind of changes it, right?
I mean, again, we're going back to this one theme that we keep repeating, but I think it needs repeating.
We need a better, more comprehensive scoring system.
We have to.
I'm just getting that clear.
Why does no one do anything, Joe?
The four of us,
the three of us,
we talk shit about it all the time.
No one ever does anything.
We wouldn't be able to do anything.
I'm not saying it's better for the sport
if we don't do anything.
Let's talk about it after the end of this
because this shit's only 15 more minutes.
This is crazy.
And this is wild shit.
Oh!
He's got that long jab
and he's still doing that.
Oh!
Right hand by Felder.
Fucking Felder just keeps connecting.
Felder is putting it on him.
If they give this fight to Hooker, this is a...
It's a travesty.
It's a travesty.
Set it together.
See, that would be a robbery.
Yeah, it would be a robbery.
That's a robbery.
Because Felder's pushing the fight.
Oh, oh, oh.
Does that count?
Does that count?
Don't let him do...
No, that's not a takedown.
He's got control.
But Felder's got to get out of this.
See, the reason why Hooker's doing this
Is because the other shit
Is not working
He's losing the
Stand up game
He's losing the stand up game
And Felder is gonna get free
And when Felder gets free
He's gonna land an elbow
On the break
The question is
At what point
Does what Hooker's doing
At this point right here
We had something
I guess in front
He's gotta do damage
Overshadow
The damage he took
off earlier.
Now it doesn't.
No, because it's early in the round.
He didn't do that.
Felder didn't do that much.
Hooker landed some shit there.
We're halfway in.
We're exactly halfway in.
So this is where it gets interesting.
Hooker's landing now, though.
Oh, right here by Felder.
Hooker definitely landed a couple of good jabs there.
Oh, nice jab by Felder.
Hooker's got a... Oh! That's hooked by Hooker. landed a couple of good jabs there. Oh, fuck. Oh, nice jab by Felder. Great jab. Hooker's got a...
Oh!
Took by Hooker.
Oh, my goodness.
This is crazy.
Oh, my God.
This is fucking crazy.
This is so evenly matched.
That low kick isn't working so much now.
Such a good stylistic matchup.
It's tough.
Like, look at the fucking shoulders on Hooker.
They don't even look like they belong on his body.
No.
They literally belong on a 170-pound guy's body.
He's got Tommy Hearn's body.
He's got that long, weird-
Real similar.
Real similar.
Yep.
I'm trying not to focus on his lats.
He's got a good-
You know what I mean?
It's like-
Skinny legs, no ass, and just all fucking fat.
You took your human makeup show.
Would you spin around so I don't have to look at them fucking lats?
All shoulders and biceps.
Look at the size of his shoulders and biceps.
His biceps are fucking giant.
It's a crazy...
But that's a really great body for fighting.
Remember Roy Jones Jr.'s biceps?
Oh, crazy.
No triceps at all.
None.
Just all biceps.
He would throw lead left hooks instead of a jab.
I'll tell you what.
Your boy Hooker's getting tired.
Well, so is Felder, for sure.
Oh, pop that jab, Hooker.
Oh, and Felder returns with one of his own.
Oh, my goodness.
This is amazing.
What a fight this is.
Holy shit, what a fight.
Oh, jab by Felder.
Jeez, that jab is fantastic.
This is so much more fun than doing commentary.
Oh, my God.
I bet.
Oh, it's not even close.
The only thing that's good about commentary.
Oh, right hand by Felder.
Felder taking it to him.
Look at this. Hooker trying again for the takedown! Right hand by Felder. Felder taking it to him. Look at this.
Hooker trying again for the takedown.
He's trying again.
He doesn't like it.
He's in deep.
Oh, no, Felder.
With a minute left.
Oh, no.
That's got to make a difference.
You're in New Zealand, too.
You've got to win him the round.
You're in New Zealand, too.
Felder's got to get up.
He's got to get up.
If he finishes the round like this, he wins.
If he finishes the round like this, he wins.
They're going to give him the round.
You're probably right, Eddie.
He got the takedown
And he's on top
You're probably right Eddie
How do you give it
To the guy on the bottom
Because the guy on the bottom
Was beating the fuck out of him
No
And he's not doing any damage
Well not this fifth round
Felder wasn't beating the shit
Out of him in the fifth round
He took him down though
Hooker won this round
Well
Hooker did
Because of the takedown
The takedown
It's the only significant difference
The judges will be able to
Take it out of the round
Are you telling me That takedown is not going to make a difference?
Okay, the back up.
The back up.
Look at him.
He's going to take his back down.
Oh, oh, oh.
Oh, that's going to even make more of a difference.
Oh, he's going to.
No.
Damn, if he would have ended in the mount, dude, that would be a big difference.
Yeah, think about the judges right now.
This is the only significant thing that happens around, so he gets it.
Nine.
I know it sucks.
Eight fucking bothers me, man.
You've got to give this to Felder
no
not this round
no
it's a close fight man
you don't give it to the guy
I love Felder
but you don't give it to the guy
that's it
come on
try not to get taken down
that last round
how do you give it to the fight
that last round
for sure
but Hooker didn't lose
the previous four
so you gotta give Hooker
at least 1 to 2
it's gonna be close man
it's real close.
Yeah, but if you judge the fight, like pride rules, by the end of the fight, you say, who
won the fight?
I'll wear Crocs right now.
And you had a pick.
That doesn't work, Eddie.
But no, no, it was so close.
It was so tight.
It could have gone either way.
It could have gone either way.
If the end of the fight looked, a guy's taking another guy down, that's got to mean the most right there.
That definitely means a lot.
How the end of the fight looked.
I don't agree.
I know you guys think that.
I don't agree with that, man.
It was so tight.
It was just as important as the fifth round.
Don't talk over each other.
Don't talk over each other.
You know what I'm saying, Joe?
Because you've said that's like in that Jon Jones fight, like the fourth and fifth round mean more towards the end.
Because that means then the fifth round is just as important as the first round.
No. That's the sport. listen that's the that's the nature
of our no no not really please don't talk over each other there's other philosophies though
because the way i look at it though no no the way i look at it if if that first round was so
significant like you fucking you hurt him so bad if it was so significant how come you're getting
your ass kicked in the fifth round who knows shit? Shit happens in the fight. You know what I mean? So it wasn't that significant. That's the sport.
It wasn't that significant.
Right?
If it was so significant.
You're right.
He's wrong.
I'm thinking like the Japanese.
The Japanese think the same way.
Yeah, and how'd Pied end up for him?
So here's the thing, dude.
Guys, guys, guys, please calm down.
Hey, guys, everybody fucking calm down right now.
I'm going to thumb wrestle you motherfuckers.
I'm going to thumb wrestle both of you motherfuckers.
Did you just cut the cheese?
I'm the fucking alpha here.
Hey, Eddie, I see what you're saying
How towards the end
When they're both tired
The rounds are more significant
Real close
But it's just not our sport
Significant head strikes
It is our sport
What are you talking about our sport?
Felder has an advantage everywhere
What's our sport?
Except for leg strikes
Felder has an advantage man
Except for leg strikes
Oh damn
Not a good time for that
My bet is Dan Hooker gets the decision
I bet you Dan Hooker
Gets the decision
What do you think?
It's New Zealand
If he gets the significant
It's New Zealand
He got the takedown at the end
He was on top
How much do you owe him now Brian?
3,000
We bet 3,000 on this
We bet 3,000
I didn't back you on this one
You're on your own
Come on Drew
You gotta use that TV money
What the fuck
Give me that ABC money you fuck
For still being on television
Felder's winning
Still being on television
And missing the podcast
Yeah It's your punishment for still being on television. Felder's winning. Still being on television. And missing the podcast.
It's your punishment for still being on television when you know it's over. That sounds like babies dying.
I know it does.
Come on, Felder.
You got to give this to Felder.
Give it some volume.
Felder.
Oh, no.
That means he's going to lose.
Hold on.
Here it goes.
Hooker.
Hooker.
48-47 for the winner by split decision. Game. Hold on Here it goes Hooker That's how close the fight was
That's such bullshit
No
No no no
Don't be that guy
Hey give me my fucking money
You old fuck
That's bullshit man
You can't say that's a robbery
It is
That's not bullshit
That's not a robbery
Bro first of all
Two things
One
You weren't scoring the fight
Two That's a great fight He was landing That's a great fight That's not a robbery. Rob, first of all, two things. One, you weren't scoring the fight. Two, that's a great fight.
That's a great fight.
He was landing way more.
In the fourth round.
What about the takedowns?
In the fourth round.
One takedown.
It for sure could have gone either way.
Don't be surprised that Hooker won.
He was putting on the heat at the end.
That's such a close fight.
That's such a close fight.
They're both great.
That's such a close fight.
That's such a close fight.
They're both great.
I would have to re-watch it, but I would have probably gave it to Paul Felder, but I did think the judges were going to give it to Hooker, just to be straight on the point.
You got to give it to the guy who's looking the best at the end.
Here's the thing.
We weren't shocked.
That doesn't make sense.
I don't know about that, Eddie.
Yes, it does.
Yes, it does.
That's how they save themselves at the end and steal the fight.
Hey, I didn't make that shit up.
That's how you make that shit up.
Go talk to the Yakuza.
Go talk to the Yakuza.
Okay, but Eddie, we don't.
The problem is everyone knows when they're going into a fight that they're operating.
Let me hear what Paul Felgrast is saying here.
Give me some volume, Jamie.
He knew it was close.
He knew it was close.
He knew it was close It might be it for him
He said
Wow
I love that
You know what
I love that
Yeah
Go be one of the best commentators
All the time
He's an awesome commentator
He's a smart guy
I fucking love that guy
He's a smart guy too
And he's been fighting
For a long time
That's the kind
of guy you want as your wingman at
a club. You know what I mean? If you're single, you're at a club,
you want this motherfucker.
He's retired. He's retired.
He's taking his glove off. I love that motherfucker.
Dan Hooker came in. I love that motherfucker.
That's so classy by Dan Hooker.
Now I love Dan Hooker. That's a great fight,
man. Listen, you can't... Brian just found out who Dan Hooker is.
They're both awesome. You can't be upset with that decision.
Welcome to the Dan Hooker world, Brian.
You can't be upset with that decision for sure if you're not watching.
We're drunk and we're shouting and yelling shit and having a good time watching the fights.
But I'm not shocked that Dan Hooker won that fight.
No, not at all.
And I wouldn't be shocked if Paul Felder won that fight either.
That was a fight that was about as close as he can get.
Dan Hardy saying thank you to him.
You know what?
He's going to have an amazing career as a broadcaster.
Hey, man, he could be a concert pianist.
Paul Felder could do whatever the fuck he wants.
He's so talented.
That's why he's a brilliant guy.
Realistically, he's already in there.
You know what I mean?
As a commentator?
Everybody loves him as a commentator.
Nobody talks shit.
No, no, no.
Nobody talks shit on Felder about his commentary.
I'll tell you what, Dan Hooker can take a fucking punch.
Yeah, no shit, dude.
And keep coming.
He can.
He's an animal.
He's such a beast.
I like how Dan Hardy's
Handling this too
Going back and forth
With these guys too
It's beautiful
The guy behind him
He gets knocked out
By butterflies
On a regular basis
That guy's serious too
The guy behind him
A stiff breeze
Puts him in a coma
What'd you call him
I had to
It was for you
I can fuck Brandon up
So bad if there's
Someone who looks
A little bit A little bit silly.
I just look at them.
Oh, man.
I'll compliment the guy.
